I think you should all have, as your new year's resolution, to tune in to more INCREDIBLE PhiladelphiaSportsTakes (trademark) right here on Hoagie Mouth. Heck, we gave you holiday episode after episode! Just so committed to the bit, we are.UP FIRST - it's the Eagles, winning a squeaker in Buffalo. Dude, we had them shut out in the first half! We know the defense is epic, an all-timer, a total bulldozer of a squad. But the offense, I mean LORDY what do we do with that? Is there a "switch" that can happen in the playoffs? Well, with the Eagles in line to host the first round at home, we need to see it. Commies at the Linc to wrap out the season on Sundee, Morman Missile under center. Book it.The Sixers - a bit of a roller coaster on the west coast swing, but we had an instant classic in Memphis to enjoy (along with last nights solid wire-to-wire win against the Mavs and COOP in Dallas). And JoJo starting to WARM UP 30 games into the season :-). But it's always a great thing to watch "Maxey and the VJ" every night - turning into the most dynamic duo in the NBA HMMM??And then yes, you all finally get a Flyers segment! They have been on their own long west coast trudge, and it's been about a .500 affair...but the last couple of games show a really creative and unrelenting offense. Can their defense show up a bit more to protect that possible Venezia Trophy finalist between the pipes? If you don't know what I just said there, you need to watch more hockey. Don't worry, Bob's gonna watch.Email: hoagiemouthpod@gmail.comIG: @hoagiemouthpod

Beyoncé has been declared a billionaire by Forbes, making her the fifth musician to join its list of the world's wealthiest people with 10 figure fortunes, including Taylor Swift, Rihanna, Bruce Springsteen and Beyoncé's husband Jay Z. Clare McDonnell speaks to Jacqueline Springer, music journalist and Curator of Africa & Diaspora: Performance at the Victoria & Albert museum, about what makes Beyoncé such a successful businesswoman, and the challenges along the way.Why can adults seem to regress to childhood or teenage behaviours at Christmas? We discuss family dynamics and the kinds of behaviour that can re-surface with everyone under the same roof again. Guardian columnist Elle Hunt shares her own experience alongside Woman's Hour listeners, and Psychotherapist Julia Samuel offers advice. Madelaine Thomas works as a professional dominatrix. When her own images were shared online without her consent, she decide to develop a tool that could allow images to be tracked, and abusers identified. Image Angel was the result, offering forensic image protection for platforms, and she's now trying to get businesses in the adult entertainment industry on board. Do we need to re-think our attitudes to ageing, as we age? As we approach 2026, we consider how to shed a negative attitude towards ageing, and embrace growing older and wiser, by revisiting an episode of the Woman's Hour Guide to Life: How to make ageing your superpower. Therapist Emma Kirkby-Geddes shares how she's been struggling to accept the passage of time. Gerontologist Dr Kerry Burnight, and Jacqueline Hooton, a personal trainer and ‘ageing well' coach, offer advice. Research tells us that girls tend to disengage from politics before the age of 16, just as boys seem to grow in confidence. Academics at Roehampton University have looked into this and have created a programme aimed at Year 9 students, in an attempt to re-engage teenage girls in issues that matter to them and boost their confidence to speak politically. Professor Bryony Hoskins has created G-EPIC (Gender Empowerment through Politics in the Classroom) and Rachel Burlton is a teacher at Mulberry School for Girls in London who has been teaching the programme.Presenter: Clare McDonnell Producer: Helen Fitzhenry

Guests Why are school children more anxious, aggressive, and shut down than ever before? We first heard answers from educators Tamara Neufeld Strijack and Hannah Beach in April 2020. Hannah takes us up to the present in this update episode. Tamara is the academic dean of the Neufeld Institute, where she develops and delivers courses and workshops that support parents, teachers, and helping professionals around the world in making sense of children through developmental science. Tamara works as a registered clinical counsellor, parent consultant, and sessional instructor for several universities, where she lectures for the faculties of education and counseling. Hannah is an award-winning educator, author, and keynote speaker. She was recognized by the Canadian Human Rights Commission in 2017 as one of five featured change-makers in Canada. She is a Neufeld course facilitator, delivers professional development services across the country, provides emotional health consulting to schools, and speaks at national and international conferences about the power of bringing more feeling and human connection into the classroom. Together, they are the authors of Reclaiming Our Students: Why Children Are More Anxious, Aggressive, and Shut Down Than Ever―And What We Can Do About It – a book about restoring the emotional well-being of children. As stated in the book's preface, "Academics can no longer be divorced from matters of the heart." Summary The core takeaway is this: children today are emotionally overloaded and under-supported, and until adults—especially teachers—reestablish themselves as consistent, caring, emotionally safe anchors, academic learning will continue to fall short. Tamara and Hannah argue that modern cultural shifts—loss of free play, constant entertainment, diminished time with adults, and the dominance of technology—have deprived kids of the natural outlets and relationships they need to process alarm, frustration, and sadness. Schools cannot "fix" behavior through discipline or curriculum tweaks alone. The starting point is restoring emotional connection, safe expression, and relational leadership in the classroom. Listen for: Why are our kids in the position today of being more anxious, aggressive, and shut down than ever before? What has been the impact of children losing time for free play – and of entertainment becoming the substitute for free play? What are "void moments," and what purpose do they serve? How can one teacher make a huge difference in the risk factors of children? What are the characteristics of the "caring leader"? Why we need to provide children with outlets for expression, and why are those outlets especially important in the online learning environment we find ourselves in today? "When we see a child who is aggressive or being difficult in some way, we look only at the behavior, and we go to correct the behavior. But what's behind the behavior? What if we feed the emotion behind that behavior? The behavior will naturally go away, just like food will help alleviate a child's hunger. If we're only treating the behavior, and not the root cause of it, how do we actually shift the child?" — Hannah Connect with Hannah and Tamara Reclaiming Our Students on Amazon Book website, including the "Inside / Outside Handbook Hannah on LinkedIN Hannah's website Tamara's website Recommended The Anxious Generation by Jonathan Haidt The Myth of Normal by Gabor Mate

American wars in Iraq were a defining feature of global politics for almost thirty years. The Gulf War of 1991, the American invasion of Iraq in 2003, and the campaign against the Islamic State beginning in 2014 each had their own logic. Each occurrence was a distinct conflict; however they must not only be considered in isolation. The United States spent the 1990s trying but failing to implement the Gulf War's cease fire agreement. After the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001, American leaders decided to settle the open-ended aftermath of the Gulf War by launching the Iraq War of 2003. The Iraq War unleashed resistance, civil war, insurgency and eventually the Islamic State in Iraq and Syria. Thus, following the Gulf War, each war was fought to finish the previous conflict. The Iraq Wars, therefore, are perhaps best understood as a chain of events.Academics, journalists, statesmen, and soldiers have produced many library shelves of books on the Iraq Wars. Yet, no short, easily digestible volume exists to synthesize this vast literature of both English and Arabic sources. The Iraq Wars: A Very Short Introduction (Oxford University Press, 2025) by Dr. Samuel Helfont covers this series of important conflicts as a whole, in a highly succinct and uniquely readable way. This interview was conducted by Dr. Miranda Melcher whose book focuses on post-conflict military integration, understanding treaty negotiation and implementation in civil war contexts, with qualitative analysis of the Angolan and Mozambican civil wars.

Andrew Walworth, Tom Bevan, and Carl Cannon discuss new GDP numbers that show the economy grew at 4.3 percent in the third quarter of 2025, exceeding expectations. Also, President Donald Trump announced plans yesterday to build a new class of battleship as part of what he calls “The Golden Fleet.” And Hunter Biden reemerged yesterday, criticizing his father's administration in a five-and-a-half hour long podcast where he revealed he is $15M in debt and claims there is “no generational wealth” in the Biden family. Then, James S.Robbins, Dean of Academics at the Institute of World Politics in Washington DC, joins the guys to discuss U.S. policy toward Venezuela, the naming of a new special envoy to Greenland, and the State Department's decision to reassign 30 ambassadors in order to align foreign policy with the President's directions.

fWotD Episode 3154: Melaka Fray Welcome to featured Wiki of the Day, your daily dose of knowledge from Wikipedia's finest articles.The featured article for Tuesday, 23 December 2025, is Melaka Fray.Melaka Fray is a fictional character in the Buffy the Vampire Slayer comics published by Dark Horse Comics. She debuts in the first issue of Fray (2001), a limited series in a shared universe with the television show Buffy the Vampire Slayer. Living in the 23rd century, Melaka is a professional thief who learns that she is a Slayer destined to fight supernatural foes. She has a Slayer's physical powers, while her twin brother Harth inherited their prophetic dreams. Melaka discovers that Harth, whom she believed was dead, has become a vampire intent on bringing demons back to Earth's dimension. After stopping his plan, she remains a thief, but chooses to protect others as well. In Tales of the Slayers, she connects with her heritage by reading journals about past Slayers. Melaka reappears in the canonical comic book continuation of the television series, meeting the 21st century Slayer Buffy Summers in Season Eight and helping her defeat Harth in Season Twelve. Melaka was developed by Buffy's creator Joss Whedon and artist Karl Moline. Whedon originally planned to write a comic about a different Slayer, Faith, but instead opted for a new character in a futuristic setting to avoid interfering with Faith's potential storylines. Fray was Whedon's first time writing a comic, although Dark Horse Comics had previously published Buffy comics without his involvement. His only request was that Melaka should not be drawn in the sexualized manner common with female characters in superhero comics. Although Melaka is initially characterized as tough, she is also shown as caring and protective of others. Her relationships with Harth and her older sister Erin are key parts of Fray. Critics have had mixed reactions to Melaka in Fray. Some have praised her as a good protagonist, while others have criticized her relationships with other characters and capabilities as a strong female character. Moline's art has been the subject of critical discussion, as despite Whedon's intentions, some reviewers believed that the comic sexually objectifies Melaka. Academics have analyzed Melaka's character arc in Fray as an example of the hero's journey, with her last name also being examined based on its potential meanings. A fan film with Melaka was released in 2017.This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 00:46 UTC on Tuesday, 23 December 2025.For the full current version of the article, see Melaka Fray on Wikipedia.This podcast uses content from Wikipedia under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.Visit our archives at wikioftheday.com and subscribe to stay updated on new episodes.Follow us on Mastodon at @wikioftheday@masto.ai.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm neural Ivy.

David Choe is a world-renowned artist, writer, podcaster and TV host. He tells how as a child, he was made to believe he was destined for greatness but also that he was a complete disgrace, leading him to channel his energy—including deep shame—into art that brought him global recognition. He shares about his addictions that put him on a decades-long cycle of extreme highs and lows and that forced him to eventually acknowledge and heal the childhood trauma he was battling inside. David shows up with raw, authentic presence to show us how we can transmute pain and shame into our best creative work and, more importantly, how complete vulnerability, especially about our hardest experiences, is the ultimate tool for forgiveness and self-acceptance.

Washington.  Adams.  Jefferson.  Madison.  Hamilton.  There are certain Founding Fathers with whom are all very familiar.  But there are also those who are less well-known but not less important.  John Witherspoon is one such historical figure.  Our guest today is Jeffry Morrison, Professor of American Studies at Christopher Newport University and Director of Academics at the federal government's James Madison Foundation.  Dr. Morrison will teach us about this important founder and explain why John Witherspoon is "the most interesting  Founding Father you have never heard of."

We now release a recording of a professional development workshop (PDW) called Queer Eye For Academics: Skills For Navigating Academic Life, held at the 2025 Academy of Management annual meeting. Inspired by the popular Queer Eye television series, this PDW offered a fresh approach to skill-sharing within academia, and featured six presenters – most early-career scholars from the LGBTQ+ community -- covering a variety of practical skills such as teaching, crafting research programs, and presenting, and interpersonal development skills such as engaging, fostering caring relations, and recognizing colleagues.

A deep dive into the profound impact of specific Black educators in the hosts' junior high years, who served as respected community figures. The conversation explores academic competitiveness, the system's failure to diagnose learning disabilities like dyslexia , and a stark critique of the 'grouping' or 'tracking' system that one host felt was steering him directly into the "pipeline to prison".

Trinity Christian Academy's mission includes offering "a demanding, college preparatory curriculum." In this episode, Chief Academic Officer Dr. Fran Legband and our three school-level academic specialists — Stephanie Burgoon, Sherry Russ and Natalie Floyd — talk about what makes TCA stand out academically and how they work to continually improve the curriculum and instruction at the school. They discuss the new academic schedule and the new and innovative classes being offered. They also talk about how TCA ensures that the amount of homework is appropriate to the grade level of each student, and how those homework assignments are designed to be effective, worthwhile and foster a love of learning in students. In everything, TCA teaches with a biblical worldview; students don't merely acquire head knowledge, but are equipped to "grow in the grace and knowledge of Jesus Christ and to become a faithful disciple of Him."

Today's speaker is Dr. Thomas Mach, Vice President for Academics at Cedarville University. Dr. Mach teaches that forgiveness is essential in our relationships and in our sanctification.

Some academics go into the office every day; some are rarely ever seen on campus. Is one way better than the other? Who better to ask than the brilliant Ella Hafermalz who spent her career on the topic of remote work and its implications for belonging, community, collaboration, and performance. She points out that academia has always been a distributed and flexible profession. Researchers need flexibility and freedom to figure out their own best way of solving problems and doing their work, some of which may mean sitting at a desk, but maybe also involve lab or field work. On the other hand, pure freedom for individual academics makes a university nothing more than a collection of hired guns without a true community.

Transcript:Ca: La foscor s'aposava sobre el campus de la universitat, mentre el vent de tardor feia ballar les fulles vermelloses i ataronjades dels arbres.En: Darkness descended over the university campus, as the autumn wind made the reddish and orange leaves of the trees dance.Ca: Dins de la biblioteca, un refugi càlid i acollidor, Laia estava immersa en una muntanya de llibres i apunts.En: Inside the library, a warm and cozy refuge, Laia was immersed in a mountain of books and notes.Ca: Laia era una estudiant meticulosa que lluitava per mantenir la seva beca.En: Laia was a meticulous student fighting to maintain her scholarship.Ca: Sabia que el futur depenia de com rendís en els exàmens finals.En: She knew that her future depended on how she performed in the final exams.Ca: La taula era plena de llibres desplegats i fulls arrugats.En: The table was full of open books and crumpled sheets.Ca: El murmuri suau dels estudiants concentrats omplia l'ambient.En: The soft murmur of concentrated students filled the atmosphere.Ca: Al seu costat, Oriol, el seu amic de tota la vida, estava remugant mentre jugava amb un bolígraf.En: Beside her, Oriol, her lifelong friend, was muttering while playing with a pen.Ca: Tot i ser molt intel·ligent, Oriol moltes vegades deixava les coses per l'últim moment.En: Despite being very intelligent, Oriol often left things until the last minute.Ca: —Oriol, concentra't!En: "Oriol, concentrate!"Ca: —va dir Laia amb una nota d'angoixa.En: Laia said with a note of anxiety.Ca: —Ho sé, ho sé —va respondre ell amb un somriure tímid, intentant enllepolir el seu humor un pèl massa distret.En: "I know, I know," he replied with a timid smile, trying to sweeten his overly distracted mood.Ca: Tant Laia com Oriol es van adonar que la seva guia d'estudi estava inacabada i el temps se'ls tirava a sobre.En: Both Laia and Oriol realized that their study guide was unfinished and time was running out.Ca: La pressió era aclaparadora, i Oriol, amb les seves bromes, no ajudava gaire.En: The pressure was overwhelming, and Oriol, with his jokes, wasn't of much help.Ca: Sabien que necessitaven ajuda.En: They knew they needed help.Ca: Van decidir recórrer a Marcel, el company de pis d'Oriol.En: They decided to turn to Marcel, Oriol's roommate.Ca: Marcel era un estudiant veterà amb una gran expertesa i sempre disposat a ajudar els més joves.En: Marcel was a veteran student with great expertise and always willing to help the younger ones.Ca: Laia va abandonar la seva reticència i, per primer cop, va demanar assistència.En: Laia abandoned her reluctance and, for the first time, asked for assistance.Ca: —Marcel, ens pots donar un cop de mà amb la guia d'estudi?En: "Marcel, can you give us a hand with the study guide?"Ca: —va preguntar, amb un to que barrejaba inseguretat i esperança.En: she asked, with a tone mixing insecurity and hope.Ca: Marcel va assentir de seguida.En: Marcel nodded immediately.Ca: Junts, es van asseure a una taula gran, envoltats del ressò dels fulls que passaven.En: Together, they sat at a large table, surrounded by the rustle of turning pages.Ca: Treballaven sense descans, amb Laia liderant el rumb, mentre Marcel aportava els seus coneixements i Oriol intentava mantenir-se centrat.En: They worked tirelessly, with Laia leading the way, while Marcel contributed his knowledge and Oriol tried to stay focused.Ca: El temps passava lentament.En: Time passed slowly.Ca: Les tasses de cafè es buidaven i les paraules es van fer més contundents.En: The cups of coffee emptied, and the words became more intense.Ca: L'ansietat de Laia era palpable, però la presència tranquil·litzadora de Marcel la va fer respirar més profundament.En: Laia's anxiety was palpable, but Marcel's calming presence made her breathe more deeply.Ca: Finalment, en una espurna de comprensió, Oriol va entendre un concepte que havia se li havia resistit durant dies.En: Finally, in a spark of understanding, Oriol grasped a concept that had eluded him for days.Ca: —Ho tinc!En: "I got it!"Ca: —va dir, amb els ulls brillants d'excitació i alleujament.En: he exclaimed, his eyes shining with excitement and relief.Ca: Aquell moment va ser el punt d'inflexió.En: That moment was the turning point.Ca: Els tres van acabar la guia d'estudi amb èxit just a temps per descansar unes hores abans dels exàmens.En: The three of them finished the study guide successfully just in time to get a few hours of rest before the exams.Ca: Els exàmens van anar bé.En: The exams went well.Ca: Laia, amb més confiança, va sentir que tots els esforços van valer la pena.En: Laia, with more confidence, felt that all the efforts had been worth it.Ca: Va comprendre que no podia fer-ho tot sola i que demanar ajuda no era un signe de feblesa, sinó de saviesa.En: She understood that she couldn't do everything alone and that asking for help was not a sign of weakness but of wisdom.Ca: Oriol, per altra banda, va guanyar una nova confiança en les seves habilitats i va aprendre que la preparació és la clau de l'èxit.En: Oriol, on the other hand, gained new confidence in his abilities and learned that preparation is the key to success.Ca: Tres dies després, sota el cel d'un matí assolellat de tardor, Laia, Oriol i Marcel es van acomiadar a la sortida de la biblioteca, amb un nou respecte i gratitud compartits.En: Three days later, under the sky of a sunny autumn morning, Laia, Oriol, and Marcel bid farewell at the library exit, with a new respect and shared gratitude.Ca: S'havien adonat plegats que, junts, eren més forts.En: Together, they had realized that they were stronger.

How entangled are China and the UK universities sector? Amy Hawkins reports. Help support our independent journalism at theguardian.com/infocus

As the number of bird flu cases across the country rises, DEFRA has announced bird keepers across England must house all poultry and captive birds if they keep more than 50 birds. Avian influenza is just one of the animal disease threats raised in a new report by the House of Commons Public Accounts Committee. It says the government would not be ready for a serious national disease outbreak like BSE or foot and mouth because resources have been focused on tackling ongoing outbreaks of avian influenza and bluetongue.All week we're taking a closer look at the start of the farming process; seeds. Most farmers buy seeds of some kind whether it's growing a crop for us to eat, or grass seed for pasture, or wildflower mixes for pollinators.

In this episode, we sit down with Charlie Pearson, senior offensive tackle at Johns Hopkins University and member of the Allstate AFCA Good Works Team. Charlie helped lead the Blue Jays to a 12-2 record, a Centennial Conference Championship, and a historic trip to the 2024 NCAA Division III Semifinals — all while maintaining a 3.87 GPA as a Public Health major. Recognized as the Centennial Conference Football Scholar-Athlete of the Year, he's the definition of excellence on and off the field. Off the gridiron, Charlie serves as a certified EMT responding to 911 calls in Baltimore, mentors youth through Blue Jays for Baltimore, supports returning citizens through Turnaround Tuesday, and leads fundraising efforts for children's health with HopThon. Join us as we explore how Charlie balances football, academics, and community service — and what it means to be a student-athlete making an impact beyond the game.
