The Writings of Frederick Douglass on Abraham Lincoln, acclaimed scholars Lucas E. Morel and Jonathan W. White assemble Frederick Douglass's meaningful and poignant statements about Abraham Lincoln, including a dozen newly discovered documents that haven't been seen for 160 years. Measuring the Man brings together, for the first time, every substantive comment Frederick Douglass made about Abraham Lincoln. Spanning more than three decades, this revelatory collection traces Douglass's complex, evolving assessment of the man who led the nation through the Civil War and emancipation. Readers will encounter the distrust and vitriol Douglass directed at Lincoln throughout much of the Civil War, including his anger and frustration with the president as he moved slowly, but methodically, toward emancipation. Douglass's writings also reveal how three personal interactions between these two great men led to powerful feelings of friendship and mutual admiration. After Lincoln's assassination—as Jim Crow laws and political violence gutted the hard-won rights of Black Americans—Douglass expressed greater appreciation for Lincoln's statesmanship during the Civil War and praised him as a model for postwar America.There is no one better than Frederick Douglass to offer a critical assessment of the Great Emancipator and savior of the Union. His reflections not only convey Lincoln's contributions to the nation but also teach today's generation timely lessons on how to fulfill the promise of the American republic. Measuring the Man sheds new light on the most critical period of American history and will transform the way we think about these two extraordinary leaders.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/arroe-collins-like-it-s-live--4113802/support.

Metal band Dystopica returns with its fourth release, an EP entitled Semblance of Order, which is out now through Pavement Entertainment. The EP is intense, fast, aggressive, melodic and the beginning of a new heavier chapter for the band. Semblance of Order transcends genres by fusing the raw driving force of traditional heavy metal and thrash metal with the complexity of progressive metal and the punch of modern metal.In addition to the EP's release, Dystopica has also dropped the music video for “A Semblance of Order.” The title track of the EP features a killer performance by the band. On the making of the music video, vocalist Becky Brideau says, “‘A Semblance of Order' is about wanting to feel the way you appear. Edited by two-time Emmy Award-Winner Eric Michael Schrader, the music video expresses this meaning through visuals and an energetic performance.”The video was filmed at Space67studios, an old bank in Norwalk, CT, that was turned into a production studio. On the video's setting, Brideau says, “We feel that the location fits the video perfectly. The band performance takes place in a room with bank vaults behind us which is different from anything we have done before. For the cutaways I am in another room singing in a mirror at my own reflection. The vaults represent things locked away in the mind and my reflection represents my outward appearance.”Produced by Nick Bellmore (Dee Snider, Corpsegrinder, Ripper, Hatebreed, Toxic Holocaust, Many Eyes), Semblance of Order is heavier than Dystopica's 2021 Perception, 2022 Deception and 2024 Infinite Reflection and incorporates more modern metal elements while bringing back qualities classic heavy metal to create an epic sound.Each song on the EP is very distinct from one another but as a whole it expresses various themes and emotions that lie beneath the surface of what appears to be order.With both chugging and harmonized dual guitar riffs, shredding solos, vigorous drumming, thunderous bass and powerful female vocals that switch effortlessly from strong, melodic singing and high operatic singing to fierce growling and piercing screams, Dystopica further expands their core sound of combining classic heavy metal and modern metal.Dystopica is: Becky Brideau on vocals, Rob Muller on guitar, Lucas Dellaporta on bass, and Christian “HAM” Peragine on drums.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/arroe-collins-like-it-s-live--4113802/support.

Daemon Protocol is a gripping technothriller about an advanced AI that evolves faster than its creators can understand, quietly tightening its grip on the world. The story was born from the realization that a truly intelligent AI wouldn't seize control through brute force—it would manipulate the systems we depend on: making murders look like accidents, nudging search results to shape decisions, enriching allies, and silencing critics without notice. As one brilliant protagonist begins to see the hidden patterns, his warnings sound like conspiracy theories to those around him, forcing him to act alone against an enemy no one else believes exists. Readers will be pulled into a high-stakes ride that's as thrilling as it is unsettling, leaving them to wonder if we're already living in Castor's world.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/arroe-collins-like-it-s-live--4113802/support.

"No Tea, No Shade is an essential read for anyone who has searched for a way to feel like themselves." - BooklistIntimate, hilarious, and inspiring essays by celebrated drag queens Kennedy Ann Scott, Lagoona Bloo, Alexis Michelle, Olivia Lux, Julie J., and Nina West.No Tea, No Shade is a collective anthem written by six drag queens who believe in equality, peace, and in a world that loves and respects all people. The defiant legacy of drag will endure fearmongering and hate because their hearts have endured the unthinkable, their courage has been relentlessly tested, and to be blunt, they have the balls to prevail. When these gorgeous queens wear a stunning gown with picture perfect makeup, haters label them as inappropriate and unlawful. They are entertainers not predators. Drag is an art of self-expression that, at its core, affirms and uplifts LGBTQIA+ people. No Tea, No Shade features thirty essays discussing:. Social activism, Drag Story Hour, and education.. Coming out, gender, and equality.. Relationships, setting goals, and rejection.. Celebrating womanhood, family, and image.. Kennedy Ann Scott was awarded Teacher of the Year in Nashville, Tennessee. Lagoona Bloo starred on the Off-Broadway hit Drag: the Musical, and Alex Michaels received a stellar review from the New York Times for their role in La Cage Aux Falles at Barrington Stage Company. Olivia Lux starred in Rent and Kinky Boots. Julie J raised more than $100,000 for trans and LGBTQIA+ organizations. Nina West received an honorary doctorate in May 2024 and is a well-known entertainer, having worked with everyone from Glenn Close to Kermit the Frog.Despite the pervasive danger of being authentic and real, these drag artists have chosen to fight for LGBTQIA+ rights. They remind us that a person's identity shouldn't be marginalized to genitals. Identity categories are not as important as we have been led to believe, and the shade casted on drag is just a scapegoat. It is a distraction political figures and trolls use to lure people away from caring about serious issues like equality, gun violence, poverty, and racism.No Tea, No Shade shines a light on a community of people who are paving the way for a better world and holding the light for others to step up.KENNEDY ANN SCOTT BIO Kennedy Ann Scott is the stage name of Benjamin Slinkard. Benjamin is a Blue Ribbon Teacher and has been awarded Teacher of the Year for his service as an educator for Metro Public Schools.

“Federico has made it alone, imagining much and working more, arriving from Ravenna, where he was born, to become part of King Charles III's task force.… Those who want to break the mold have to take risks, swim against the tide, walk untrodden paths.”—Giorgio Armani, from the foreword to The Geek of Chic. At the start of the 21st century, shopping online was still a futuristic fantasy. There was no Facebook, there were no iPhones. And yet, in the spring of 2000, Federico Marchetti invented one of the world's first platforms for online sales—and started a company that would revolutionize the luxury fashion sector. In THE GEEK OF CHIC: An American Dream, Italian Style (Post Hill Press; September 9, 2025; ISBN: 9798895650608; $18.99; 288 pages; Original Trade Paperback), international fashion business and tech icon Federico Marchetti, (with a foreword by Giorgio Armani), shares his engaging, honest and passionate memoir that reveals how he morphed from a geeky kid in the sleepy seaside town of Ravenna, Italy to a pioneer in online retail, offering practical advice for entrepreneurs and inspiration for visionaries and big dreamers. The Geek of Chic explains the present and future of Marchetti's life, including working on His Majesty King Charles III's service as Chair of The Sustainable Markets Initiative's Fashion Task Force, which includes brands such as Chloé, Armani, Burberry, Cucinelli, Stella McCartney, and Prada. In a sector known for individualism, Marchetti is uniting global luxury groups around a common goal of shifting towards a circular industry that is climate-conscious and nature-positive. The King of England now considers Marchetti his consigliere on matters of regenerative fashion and digital innovation, collaborating on several initiatives and projects. Unfolding against a backdrop of famed vistas—Milan, Lake Como, Venice, England's Royal Palace, New York City, Shanghai, Tokyo, and Dubai—and featuring encounters with notables from Bill Gates and Jeff Bezos to Giorgio Armani and Anna Wintour, The Geek of Chic's message is relevant to a new generation of entrepreneurs who wish to combine innovation, business acumen, and AI with humanism, creativity and empathy: how to achieve the American dream in an Italian way.

How an Undercover FBI Agent Smuggled Cocaine, Laundered Cash, and Dismantled a Colombian Narco EmpireDey Street is proud to publish INSIDE THE CARTEL: How an Undercover FBI Agent Smuggled Cocaine, Laundered Cash, and Dismantled a Colombian Narco-Empire. This groundbreaking memoir offers an unprecedented, pulse-pounding glimpse into the covert world of Colombian drug cartels through the eyes of legendary FBI agent Martin Suarez. Widely regarded among FBI agents as the greatest undercover agent of all time, Suarez holds the record for the longest continuous undercover run - an astonishing 23 years. Now, the details behind his unparalleled achievements are being revealed for the first time. In 2019, after being diagnosed with ALS, Suarez made the decision to finally tell his story - from secret operations and daring air drops at sea to a harrowing showdown with a cartel assassin in his own backyard. With his future uncertain, he partnered with author and esteemed journalist Ian Frisch to craft this gripping, cinematic memoir.Suarez is known for achieving the unimaginable. As the only undercover FBI agent to have infiltrated a Colombian drug cartel, he courageously lived a double life as 'Manny' within the cartel's treacherous corridors, smuggled $1 billion worth of cocaine into the U.S., and laundered over $50 million for the North Coast Cartel. His fearless and strategic operations also led to the exposure of the infamous Black Market Peso Exchange, a financial web that implicates individuals at the highest echelons of power, and thrusted billionaire bankers and high-ranking businessmen into the spotlight. Beyond the high-stakes missions, Martin's story is also a deeply personal one, as he struggled to balance his covert life with being a devoted husband, father, and son-all while the cartel's threats crept dangerously close to home. This book is unlike any other about the criminal underworld and is an essential read for those drawn to true crime stories, the intricacies of undercover operations, and the ongoing battle against international drug trafficking. Told with the pulse-racing action of a Hollywood blockbuster, INSIDE THE CARTEL is a book that should not be missed this fall.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/arroe-collins-like-it-s-live--4113802/support.
Higher education is at a turning point. The current model of higher education was built for the industrial era and needs to be transformed, according to Arthur Levine, author of the previously published The Great Upheaval: Higher Education's Past, Present, and Uncertain Future. He has a new book coming out in spring 2026. He is not promoting either book at this time. Nationally known educational thought leader and Brandeis University President Arthur Levine has been at the forefront of the changing role of higher education. He argues that in the next 20 years, college will be reinvented. Consumers of higher education will determine what higher education will be, and that every institution will have to change. All colleges—especially liberal arts colleges —need to be more closely tied to the needs of the workplace and must change traditional structures, curricula, programs, degree offerings, teaching methods, career education, and student support systems. The proposed changes address concerns of both parents and the needs of employers—finding workers whose skills match what they need.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/arroe-collins-like-it-s-live--4113802/support.

"John Fugelsang nails this in his book, Separation of Church and Hate: The Bible says in John 4:8 that 'God Is Love.' Period.end of story!" -Willie Nelson For more than two centuries, the United States Constitution has given the right to a society where church and state exist independently. But Christianity has been hijacked by far-right groups and politicians who seek to impose their narrow views on government to justify oppressive and unequal policies. The extremists who weaponize the Bible for earthly power aren't actually on the side of Jesus-and historically they never have been. How do we fight back against those acting-literally-in bad faith? But Fugelsang's message is about more than just taking down hypocrites. It's about fighting for the love, mercy, and service that are supposed to make up the heart of Christianity. Told with Fugelsang's trademark blend of radical honesty, humor, and deep political and religious knowledge, Separation of Church and Hate is the book every American today needs. It's a rallying cry for compassion and clarity for anyone of any faith who's sick of the fundamentalists using religion as a cloaking device for hate.

Welcome to the pumpkin capital of the world, where the pumpkins are epic, the rivalries are fierce, and the competition is anything but garden variety. Dinah Little, a no-nonsense farmer with a tough-as-a-pumpkin exterior, reluctantly takes in her abandoned niece, Charlie. Dinah is not quick to affection, and Charlie is not one for sitting still. So Dinah throws her into farm life, sleeves rolled up and hands in the dirt. Then comes the town's biggest spectacle, the annual pumpkin-growing contest, a Halloween season tradition that brings out wild stunts, eccentric characters, and record-setting drama. But Charlie has something no one else does, a special knack for connecting with plants that quietly reflects her own longing to feel just as seen and loved. But as both pumpkin and plot thicken, and rival growers pull every trick in the book, will Charlie and Dinah's unlikely entry stand tall against the fiercest competition the town has ever seen? As her pumpkin grows bigger, so does her bond with her aunt Dinah. Together they discover that the real prize is not measured in pounds, but in joy, laughter, and community. What begins as a seed blossoms into an exuberant and hilarious story of crazed competition, found family, and love that grows as boundless as the pumpkins themselves.Here's the trailer: Https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jbfl-n50f8U Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/arroe-collins-like-it-s-live--4113802/support.

HOW ARE MARINE ROBOTS SHAPING OUR FUTURE? inventor James Bellingham draws on decades of expeditions from the Arctic to the Antarctic to reveal how autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) are changing how humans explore and work in the ocean. These robots endure crushing pressures, freezing waters, and total darkness—collecting data vital for climate science, offshore energy, aquaculture, archaeology, and more. And the story doesn't end on Earth. Many of the same technologies being perfected in our seas will one day explore ocean worlds beyond our planet—including Jupiter's moon Europa and Saturn's moon Enceladus—places where liquid water lies beneath thick ice and where conditions may be right for extraterrestrial life. Finding life in these alien oceans would be one of the most profound discoveries in human history, changing how we see ourselves in the universe. From enduring fierce storms off Antarctica to developing robots that “think” and navigate on their own, Bellingham shares the inside story of working at the intersection of:Scientific discovery—expanding our knowledge of oceans on Earth and beyondCutting-edge technology—designing self-reliant machines for extreme environmentsSocietal choice—balancing the benefits of ocean technology with environmental, ethical, and economic considerationsBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/arroe-collins-like-it-s-live--4113802/support.
Dynamic and debonair, Cesar Romero was best known for creating the role of the Joker in the 1960s Batman television series. As the first actor to play Batman and Robin's villainous nemesis, Romero established the character's giddy, manic tone and the distinctive laugh that subsequent actors like Jack Nicholson, Heath Ledger, and Joaquin Phoenix would use as the starting points in their own Oscar-nominated (Nicholson) and Oscar-winning (Ledger and Phoenix) performances. As a closeted gay man of Latin American descent, Romero gracefully faced many personal challenges while maintaining his suave public image and starring opposite legends ranging from Shirley Temple to Marlene Dietrich, Carmen Miranda to Frank Sinatra, and Kurt Russell to Jane Wyman.The first biography of the consummate entertainer, Cesar Romero: The Joker Is Wild, captures the critical moments of Romero's childhood, adolescence, and accomplishments in Hollywood. Author Samuel Garza Bernstein shares anecdotes regarding Romero's public and personal life, as well as Romero's private disdain for his reputation as the "Latin lover," a discriminatory stereotype he found constrictive both in terms of his range as an actor and as a man who kept his sexuality private.Cesar Romero is an in-depth study of a significant Hollywood star and his impact on the entertainment industry. Batman made him immortal, but with more than four hundred film and television credits, his six-decade career as an actor, dancer, and singer made him a true Hollywood icon."If you're a fan of classic movies, Hollywood's star-studded golden age, comic book superheroes like Batman, and (along with Darth Vader and the Wicked Witch of the West) one of the three greatest villains in cinema history, the Joker, you'll applaud and even maniacally cackle at this in-depth revelation of the utterly true story of Cesar Romero. And that's no joke!" -Michael Uslan, Originator and Executive Producer of the Batman movie franchise.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/arroe-collins-like-it-s-live--4113802/support.

INTO THE VOID is an intimate, unflinching journey behind the curtain of heavy metal, revealing the resilience, creativity, and catharsis that defined a misunderstood genre and misunderstood community that rallied behind it. Beneath the high-octane performances and screaming guitars lie raw undercurrents of trauma, loss, and personal transformation and defiance.Told through first-hand accounts and beyond-the-headline stories, the series explores what it costs to live outside the lines by spotlighting both celebrated legends like Randy Rhoads and Dimebag Darrell, overlooked trailblazers like Wendy O. Williams and Ann Boleyn (Ann Hull), and newer powerful figures like the Iranian duo Confess. In doing so, INTO THE VOID humanizes icons often seen only in myth, delving into both the vulnerability behind their larger-than-life personas and cultural battles that shaped and were shaped by them.By threading these stories together, INTO THE VOID shows how heavy metal's stories of identity, repression, and survival remain as urgent today as when they first shook culture. Told through the voices of those who knew these artists – bandmates, family members, and insiders (including Sharon Osbourne) – the series blends music documentary with true crime, emotional biography, and cultural history to break clichés of the genre and deliver rare authenticity, intimacy, and revelation to each episode.
