Poddcastart_medium_small Despite ongoing turmoil and conflict in our world, there are still people who are working for peace.  Listen for the annual compendium of highlights from the Peace Talks Radio series on peacemaking and nonviolent conflict resolution.  Listeners will hear about the Dalai Lama's commitment to peace, John Lennon and Yoko Ono's peace work, peace lessons from the annual Rainbow Gatherings and from international water negotiations.  Other programs spolighting a community art project and an international pen pal project for peace will be recalled.  Plus comments on peacebuilding through travel with Rick Steves, reduction of nuclear arsenals from Nobel Peace prize Laureate Dr. Bernard Lown and a word from Capt. James T. Kirk of the Starship Enterprise (really!).  It's an uplifting and empowering hour. 

Listeners really do respond favorably to these shows.

Stations wishing to run a 54:00 version, simply drop the "Optional Newscast" segment.

There are 6 other compendium programs that were all narrated so as to be evergreen. If you'd like to add other episodes to your holiday celebration of peace and hope, or any time of year, you can also find them at PRX.
