Listen as activist Gloria Richardson revisits an iconic photograph from the civil rights campaign and Doug Williams, the first African American quarterback to play in the Super Bowl, describes the struggle for fair pay. And U.S. Rep Barbara Lee, D-Calif., reflects on the moral stand she took in 2001 against the open-ended War on Terror. Tune in for this special hour of Witness from the BBC, bringing you back in time and presenting stories that are inspiring, harrowing and richly told. —Chloe Morizono Rediscovering Apprenticeships Airs Wednesday, February 20, at 8pm on KQED 88.5FM The “college for all” push has left many students with piles of debt and no obvious career path. Meanwhile, apprenticeships are booming in popularity, and the number of apprentices in the United States is expected to grow exponentially by 2020. Supporters say the “earn while you learn” approach can help create a more skilled workforce and provide a path to solid, middle-class careers. The APM Reports documentary Old Idea, New Economy: Rediscovering Apprenticeships explores how apprenticeships can expand to include careers beyond the traditional trades and reach new populations searching for a foothold in the middle class. —Chloe Morizono PODCASTS The best podcasts to listen to right now, recommended by Carly Severn, co-host of The Cooler, KQED’s pop culture podcast. Don’t know what a podcast is? Not sure how to listen to one? Reach out to Julie Caine, [email protected]. STARTER EPISODE “Jonathan Van Ness of ‘Queer Eye’ on Turning Red States Pink” Feel like the dizzying pace of pop culture is leaving you behind? This podcast — which I host along with Emmanuel Hapsis and Jamedra Brown Fleischman — is designed to help you stay up-to-date, taking on music, movies and whatever The Internet is talking about this week. STARTER EPISODE “‘Zodiac,’ with Sean Fennessey, Chris Ryan and Andy Greenwald” KQED.ORG Film criticism can be an elitist affair, which is why I like this pretention-free podcast from Bill Simmons’ The Ringer network. Don’t be fooled by the congenial atmosphere: these folks seriously know their stuff, as their deep dive into David Fincher’s Bay Area masterpiece Zodiac proves. • FEBRUARY 2019 FEBRUARY STARTER EPISODE FEBRUARY 2019 2019 FEBRUARY • “Ferry Bad Start to the Year” This satirical news podcast was where John Oliver (that one!) cut his teeth before The Daily Show.
