Cassidy brings the tale this week of Russian feminist punk rock protest group Pussy Riot and their unsanctioned concerts, including their infamous performance at the Cathedral of Christ the Saviour in Moscow and how it led to three members' jail times and being declared prisoners of conscience as a result.  Song is Punk Prayer by Pussy Riot sourced from YouTube. We do not own the rights. (Sorry about the abrupt ending. We had technical difficulties, but the whole glorious story of Pussy Riot is still there! Just with a tacked on standard ending.)

By 1950, the town of Portlock, Alaska was mysteriously abandoned despite being still rich in resources and a huge commercial center.
