The Electronically Quiet House

Chris from Lafayette

Our local Pacifica radio station, KPFA in Berkeley, features a number of health shows hosted by old hippies (with topics such as aroma therapy, essential oils, how astrology fits into your health regimen, etc.), but there's one show that seems to exhibit a bit more credibility than the others do. It's called "Your Own Health and Fitness" run by Lena Berman, who identifies herself as a "health integrationist". She sometimes has some legitimate guests on the show and I find the program generally entertaining and even, on some occasions, useful.

One of Elena's frequently recurring topics is "the dangers of EMF radiation in the home", and this week, she had a show to discuss the subject line of this post. What's interesting about this is that although she freaks out about such things as smart meters, LED bulbs (which she claims are as bad as florescents), etc., she had a guest on the show, Michael Neuert, who apparently designs environments for minimal EMF exposures. I was thinking that some of the discussion might actually apply to audio too - and in fact, both Lena and her guest identify digital anything (not just audio in particular) as much more dangerous to your health than good ol' analogue.

Here's a link to it - I think this show will stay up on the site until next Monday. It's an hour long, and I'm about half way through it so far. As mentioned, I find it entertaining, although I don't necessarily agree with any of it! ;-)

So if you've got an extra hour to spare, here's the link:
