Did you ever have a really interesting conversation at a bar -- sharing ideas over a couple of martinis -- and wish you could've bottled it? That's Bar Crawl Radio. Rebecca McKean and Alan Winson invite amazing people to bars all over the word -- make a toast -- and then talk about about whatever inspires them -- makes their lives worth living. We talk to all sorts of interesting people doing important work for their community at a neighborhood bar -- composers -- actors -- musicians -- medical ethicists and practitioners -- playwrights & poets -- journalists -- politicians -- social activists -- community organizers & NGOs -- scientists -- brewers & mead makers -- businesspersons -- and fellow podcasters -- recording mostly in Manhattan's UWS. Who knows? BCR might be at a bar -- near you.

Fasting for Gazans; Kathy Kelly / Joy Metzler -- Day 23

Day 23 -- VFP Fast for Gaza. I spoke with peacemaker Kathy Kelly and former member of the US AirForce Joy Metzler and asked them about their life choices that led them to join the "Fast for Gaza."

Joy Metzler, 23, is a member of VFP and co-founder of Serivcemembers For Ceasefire – US military veterans calling for an end to the conflict in Gaza. Joy graduated from the USAF Academy in 2023 and was discharged as a conscientious objector citing “US aggression in the Middle East and the murderous ethnic cleansing in Palestine.” I asked Joy what she would say to the young US Marines recently deployed to the streets of Los Angeles in support of ICE.

The night before our conversation -- Israel attacked Iran's military structures and leadership. While we sat on a metal bench outside the United Nations, the Security Council was preparing to hold an emergency meeting. This program begins with a statement by the United Kingdom Ambassador to the UN, Barbara Woodward, calling for calm in the Middle East.
