Podcasts about 1960s

We open the show with a look at the political landscape, diving into a Wall Street Journal piece highlighting how a growing number of young conservatives show support for government-run grocery stores and democratic socialist ideas. Linda Kearns and Andrew discuss how economic pressures—from housing unaffordability to rising living costs—are pushing younger generations across both sides of the aisle to reconsider government involvement. The crew reacts to these shifting attitudes, challenging the notion of total government reliance while reflecting on personal finance habits, student loans, and how economic realities compare to past generations. Don Palmer from the Heritage Foundation joins us to unpack critical issues surrounding election integrity, federal mandates, and voting procedures. We explore the transition of leadership at the Election Assistance Commission, the deployment of electronic poll books to reduce human error, and the operational strains facing the United States Postal Service when processing mail-in ballots. Dawn Palmer breaks down the nuances of uniform ballot tracking and addresses the ongoing friction surrounding ballot drop boxes across different counties. We turn to the high-stakes legal debate over voter registration laws, focusing on the proposed SAVE Act and the legacy of the National Voter Registration Act (Motor Voter). Linda and Don debate the constitutional balance between state administration and federal oversight, tackling proof-of-citizenship requirements, driver's license agency practices, and voter documentation rules. To round out the hour, we field caller perspectives on federal photo identification options, touch on local Philly pop culture, and look ahead to upcoming show guests.

This week's episode is brought to you by the colors: yellow, orange, and brown. The 8th volume of our deep dive into the trippy and groovy beginnings of the heavy stuff! Cut your lava lamp on, gaze at that blacklight poster through the haze of purple smoke, and join your favorite rock n' roll grave robbers as they dig deep into the core of 70s Acid Rock n' Proto Metal crypt to unearth some obscure bands that helped influence and mold what would become known as Heavy Metal.  What is it that we do here at InObscuria? Well, we exhume obscure Rock n' Punk n' Metal in one of 3 categories: the Lost, the Forgotten, or the Should Have Beens. This particular episode is planted firmly in the LOST category, as all of these recordings occurred between 1970 – 1973. As always, our hope is that we turn you on to something new in a genre and decade that you may have thought you already knew everything there was to know. Songs this week include: Zoot - “Hey Pinky” from Zoot Out (1971) Head Over Heels - “Road Runner” from Head Over Heels (1971) Fresh Blueberry Pancake - “Hassels” from Heavy (1970) Wicked Lady - “I'm A Freak” from Psychotic Overkill (1972) Irish Coffee - “Can't Take It” from Irish Coffee (1971) Light Of Darkness - “Movin' Along” from Light Of Darkness (1971) Ancient Grease - “Mother Grease The Cat” from Women And Children First (1970) Jane - “Here We Are” from Here We Are (1973) Visit us: https://inobscuria.com/ https://bonelesspodcasting.com/shows/in-obscuria https://www.facebook.com/InObscuria https://twitter.com/inobscuria https://www.instagram.com/inobscuria/ Buy cool stuff with our logo on it: InObscuria Store Check out Robert's amazing fire sculptures and metal workings here: http://flamewerx.com/ If you'd like to check out Kevin's band THE SWEAR, take a listen on all streaming services or pick up a digital copy of their latest release here: https://theswear.bandcamp.com/ If you want to hear Robert and Kevin's band from the late 90s – early 00s BIG JACK PNEUMATIC, check it out here: https://bigjackpnuematic.bandcamp.com/

This episode is lesson one from our Foundations of Masculinity course. I start with a true story out of Kruger National Park in 1993, where wildlife officials relocated a group of young male elephants without any older males to guide them. Within a few years, rangers started finding endangered white rhinos brutally killed, not by poachers, but by these juvenile elephants who had no elder to show them how to act. The second they flew in a few older bull elephants, the chaos stopped. When I first heard that story, it hit me like a truck, because it's exactly what's happening to men in our culture today.From there, I trace how we got here, starting with the sexual revolution of the 1960s and Woodstock's "free love" philosophy, and how removing responsibility and courtship from relationships between men and women actually backfired, leading to a massive spike in fatherlessness that's still wrecking families today. I break down the real difference between being male, being masculine, and being a manly man, and why manhood isn't something you're born with, it's something that has to be poured into you by other men. I also get personal, sharing my own dad's story of growing up without a father and how my grandfather, a hardworking farmer, shaped an entire ethos around what it means to be a man, even without ever using the word "masculinity."By the end of this episode, I dig into what Scripture actually says about a man's role, starting in Genesis, and I talk honestly about the different but equally valuable roles men and women carry, using some pretty relatable stories from my own marriage and home along the way. If you've ever felt confused about what it means to be a man in today's world, or if you've caught yourself acting more like a "man boy" chasing short-term gratification instead of long-term reward, this episode is for you. I close it out with a prayer over every man listening. Thanks for tuning in, and if this episode hits home, share it with a friend who needs to hear it. Stay brave, and we'll see you next week.Chapters:00:00 – Welcome04:09 – The Elephant Story: What It Teaches Us About Fatherless Men08:11 – The Sexual Revolution's Broken Promise12:22 – Toxic Masculinity vs. True Manhood: The Confusion Today16:32 – What Manliness Really Means: Jesus as the Model20:42 – Man Boys: When Selfishness Never Grows Up24:54 – My Grandfather's Farm: A Lesson in Manly Work Ethic29:01 – The Sump Pump Story: A Man's God-Given Responsibility33:12 – Different Roles, Equal Value: Men and Women by Design37:17 – Don't Suppress Your Masculinity: A Prayer for Every ManCONNECT WITH BRAVECOJoin Our Free Community for Men (ladies, sign up your man): https://www.braveco.orgFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/braveco.menInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/braveco.men/Shop: https://shop.braveco.org/ABOUT BRAVECO: We live in a time where men are hunting for the truth and looking for the codebook to manhood.

Hi, I've just popped in to see how you are.

Prime Minister Anthony Albanese has announced a joint plan with West Australia's government to fund a new study into large-scale oil refinery. The refinery is aimed at protecting the country's economy from further global energy shocks. If the refinery goes ahead, it would be the first new large-scale petrol refinery built in Australia since the 1960s. This comes as the cut in fuel excise is due to expire by the end of the week - انتونی آلبانیزی صدراعظم آسترالیا از اختصاص چهار میلیون دالر برای انجام یک مطالعه مقدماتی درباره ساخت یک تصفیه خانه بزرگ نفت در آسترالیای غربی خبر داده است. هدف این طرح، تقویت انرژی و کاهش آسیب‌پذیری آسترالیا در برابر شوک‌های جهانی تأمین مواد سوخت عنوان شده است.

In this Conflicted Conversation, Thant Myint-U talks about his new book Peacemaker: U Thant, the United Nations and the Untold Story of the 1960s. It tells the story of his grandfather U Thant, the Burmese schoolteacher turned UN Secretary-General who guided the United Nations through some of the most dangerous crises of the 1960s, yet is now woefully forgotten or badly misremembered. Thant explains: U Thant's forgotten role as UN Secretary-General during the great crises of the 1960s His sociability, humour, directness, and moral imagination How Buddhism shaped U Thant's approach to crisis How newly independent post-colonial states tried to remake the world order Burma/Myanmar after empire: colonial destruction, weak institutions, and postcolonial state-building The Non-Aligned Movement: Afro-Asian internationalism beyond the US–Soviet Cold War Congo, Katanga and sovereignty: U Thant's defence of postcolonial borders against neo-imperial fragmentation The Cuban Missile Crisis: U Thant's overlooked role in helping Kennedy, Khrushchev and Castro de-escalate Vietnam and the lost peace channel: U Thant's ignored 1964 attempt to open talks with Ho Chi Minh The Six-Day War and the UN-Israel rupture: UNEF, Nasser, Israel, and the myth that the UN abandoned Israel U Thant's late one-world vision, the decline of Bandung idealism, and the lost promise of postcolonial internationalism Join the Conflicted Community here: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://conflicted.supportingcast.fm/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Visit Thant's website: thantmyintu.com Find us on X: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://x.com/MHconflicted⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ And Facebook: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.facebook.com/MHconflicted⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ And Instagram: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/conflictedpod⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Learn more about your ad choices.

It stands out today as one of the only known sex education-style films ever produced by the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Whether viewed as sincere instruction or outdated moral messaging, "The Trouble With Jack" has become a strange cultural artifact of its time.Meet Jack: an Eagle Scout battling obsessive thoughts, sexual urges, and the ultimate test of "self-control."Let's dive into this campy 1963 classic and see how the era framed "the straight and narrow."Original Film: https://youtu.be/EUN81eJYmfA?is=htOIZzrUjdRR0nSu#MormonHistory #Satire #TheTroubleWith Jack #Retrovibe #VintageEdu #ClassicCampPlease consider making a donation by joining our Patreon https://www.patreon.com/MormonNewsRoundup Email: kolob@mormonnewsroundup.org Website: https://mormonnewsroundup.org/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@mormonnewsroundup Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/mormon_news_roundup/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100093511869924 X: https://twitter.com/NewsMormon New episodes LIVE every Sunday and Monday nights at 9:30PM ESTPlease like and subscribe and hit the notifications bell.

In EP118, "The Void," we joined Mark Coonrad on a road trip to visit the graves of three men who died serving with the 3rd Battalion, 12th Infantry Regiment, 4th Infantry Division — the "Braves." Heavily engaged in the Central Highlands, this unit earned high commendations for its bravery and combat effectiveness, and enduring legendary battles like Dak To. In this conclusion, we hear from Jim Wytko, one of the surviving Braves who's still around to tell their story.

Today I'm speaking with Nicholas Freudenberg, Distinguished Professor Emeritus of Public Health at the CUNY School of Public Health. We are discussing his book, Fighting for New York: Activism for Health and Social Justice Since the 1960s (Columbia University Press, 2026). In March 2020, during one of the first major US outbreaks of Covid, New York became an epicenter of the spread. New York's connective tissue, like the walkable city streets, subways, and taxi cabs, became pathways of transmission. In places where ideas and cultures can spread, diseases can, too. As the hospitals began to fill, essential workers from doctors and nurses to ambulance drivers and social workers stepped up to help heal the city in a time of crisis. For a brief moment, health workers became highly visible in our public consciousness. For many, the pandemic came as a shock. It had been more than 100 years since the last pandemic of comparable magnitude hit the five boroughs. We soon discovered that there already existed a network of public health workers and activists waiting to spring into action to blunt the virus's spread. Many wished that this network had been more robust, better developed, and better funded. Fighting for New York looks at the long sweep of public health activism in New York City from the 1960s to now. Covid was not the first public health crisis the city faced, and it certainly won't be the last. Nicholas details various initiatives to mobilize support for public health projects in the city. How have activists identified problems in their communities? How have they gained institutional support in addressing these problems? And how do they discover and implement workable solutions to the identified problems? Though primarily a work of history, Fighting for New York also serves as a road map for public health workers and activists seeking to navigate contemporary issues.

We are discussing his book, Fighting for New York: Activism for Health and Social Justice Since the 1960s (Columbia University Press, 2026). In March 2020, during one of the first major US outbreaks of Covid, New York became an epicenter of the spread. New York's connective tissue, like the walkable city streets, subways, and taxi cabs, became pathways of transmission. In places where ideas and cultures can spread, diseases can, too. As the hospitals began to fill, essential workers from doctors and nurses to ambulance drivers and social workers stepped up to help heal the city in a time of crisis. For a brief moment, health workers became highly visible in our public consciousness. For many, the pandemic came as a shock. It had been more than 100 years since the last pandemic of comparable magnitude hit the five boroughs. We soon discovered that there already existed a network of public health workers and activists waiting to spring into action to blunt the virus's spread. Many wished that this network had been more robust, better developed, and better funded. Fighting for New York looks at the long sweep of public health activism in New York City from the 1960s to now. Covid was not the first public health crisis the city faced, and it certainly won't be the last. Nicholas details various initiatives to mobilize support for public health projects in the city. How have activists identified problems in their communities? How have they gained institutional support in addressing these problems? And how do they discover and implement workable solutions to the identified problems? Though primarily a work of history, Fighting for New York also serves as a road map for public health workers and activists seeking to navigate contemporary issues.

What can the turbulent 1960s teach us about navigating today's divided world? In this powerful episode, Pulitzer Prize-winning presidential historian Doris Kearns Goodwin joins us to discuss her latest book, An Unfinished Love Story, a deeply personal memoir that weaves together her own life with the defining moments of one of America's most transformative decades. Goodwin reflects on the leadership legacies of JFK and LBJ, the courage behind the Civil Rights Movement, and why collective action — not individual heroism — has always been the true engine of progress. She unpacks how social media is reshaping modern movements, what today's leaders can learn from the past, and why youth engagement may be our greatest hope for bridging societal divides. We also explore the rise of AI and its implications for how history is written and remembered — and why Goodwin believes human moral reasoning will always be irreplaceable. Whether you're a history buff, a political junkie, or simply someone looking for perspective and optimism in uncertain times, this conversation will leave you inspired.

The Braves of the 3rd Battalion, 12th Infantry Regiment fought a hard, largely unsung war in Vietnam's Central Highlands. Nearly 300 never came home, and most of their families received little more than a telegram — hardly enough to understand what happened. A veteran of the Iraq War has set out to fill that void: to visit every one of their graves and remember each as "more than just a name on The Wall."

The United States Coast Guard is the service that has to go out but doesn't have to come back. By July of 1965, the first 82-foot patrol boats were arriving at Da Nang. Most people don't even know the Coast Guard was in Vietnam, and the people who do know tend to picture them somewhere in the background, keeping the shipping lanes clear. During his one-year tour, Woody Barley was definitely not in the background.

After the Anthony murder verdict, Crockett’s response sparks backlash: After lying about the evidence and MOCKING the Metcalf’s pain, Crockett demands a conversation on race. Let’s have one.

Holly Fretwell proposes longer-term contracts (up to 20+ years) to encourage private investment in essential milling infrastructure. She recommends expanding categorical exclusions to bypass "analysis paralysis" and lifting 1960s-era export bans on raw logs to improve global market competition. Successful private-sector collaborations like Vaagen Brothers illustrate how these reforms can restore forest health. (4)

During the 1960s, theorists like Jeremiah Ostriker used early computers to determine that spiral galaxies would be unstable and "fly apart" without a massive spherical halo of unseen matter. This theoretical need found concrete evidence through the pioneering work of Vera Rubin and Kent Ford. By observing the Andromeda galaxy, they discovered that rotational velocities did not diminish at the outer edges, a phenomenon called "flattening the curve." This proved that a significant amount of invisible mass must exist to provide the necessary gravity. To map this mass, modern astronomers use gravitational lensing, an effect predicted by Einstein where gravity bends light from distant objects. This work continues in Chile at the Vera Rubin Observatory, which is designed to map the distribution of dark matter across space and time. (2/8)2020 ESA EUCLID

The 1960s in Japan have long been understood as a period of radical political engagement. But as political movements from Old Left Communism to New Left revolts appeared to fail in their efforts to revolutionize Japanese society, artists and intellectuals came to reject the ideals of postwar politics. Instead, they advocated withdrawing from political participation and making self-transformation the grounds for social change.This provocative book uncovers a paradox at the heart of the 1960s: how political disillusionment became the basis for a new form of politics—a politics of the self. Examining aesthetic criticism, popular literature, avant-garde art, cinema, and political theory, Patrick Noonan argues that cultural producers in 1960s Japan cultivated what he calls an “ethos of disaffection” toward revolutionary politics and postwar society. Departing from approaches that define politics as contestation, Age of Disaffection: The Aesthetic Critique of Politics in 1960s Japan (Columbia UP, 2025) foregrounds cultivation, or the production of ways of feeling and relating to the world in efforts to redefine the political. It presents an unorthodox account of the 1960s: withdrawal from political activity developed not as the decade ended but as it was unfolding. Noonan reveals how Japanese artists and intellectuals in this period confronted a crucial question that continues to vex efforts at radical change today: transform institutions or alter how people relate to themselves and others?
