What does it mean to confront climate change? Amol speaks to broadcaster and campaigner Chris Packham who says conservationists like him have not done enough to protect nature. After the COP climate summit in Brazil ended without new targets to reduce the use of fossil fuels, he wants the UK government to lead a global emergency action plan as it did in World War Two and during the 2008 financial crisis to address what he calls climate and nature breakdown. The Springwatch and Winterwatch presenter also highlights the importance of biodiversity, how carbon emissions affect our health, and the practical steps individuals can take to make a difference. But ultimately he says we need a policy shift, which makes polluters pay. Chris also speaks candidly about his neurodiversity, his compulsion to speak truth to power and the personal price he pays for his campaigning.

According to several recent studies of health care systems across the globe, the U.S. health care system lags far behind those in other developed nations. The system is more expensive per person, but also for the nation as a whole. This high cost doesn't translate into good access, high quality, or favorable outcomes. Many in the nation have no insurance at all, and many can't find a primary care provider, or access much beyond basic emergency care. Our very expensive system does not do well at preventing death, either.  Skyrocketing insurance costs are likely to make matters worse, leaving more people uninsured, and dying for lack of care. It is likely to create a ripple effect, as high health care costs will increase food insecurity and exacerbate the homelessness crisis. These effects may even touch those who are comfortably well-off, as more care facilities close due to lack of funds.  Activists, lobbyists, policy-makers, and analysts have been calling for some form of universal care for Americans for decades, to bring us in line with the less expensive and more equitable systems in other nations. But what should Catholics think about this question? Would universal health care access be in line with Catholic social teaching? What would a truly just health care system look like? This episode of Just Politics is a collaboration with the Glad You Asked podcast. Sister of the Humility of Mary Eilis McCulloh, one of the Just Politics hosts, talks here with U.S. Catholic editors Emily Sanna and Rebecca Bratten Weiss about Catholic teaching on health care. Glad You Asked brings in theologians, activists, scholars, and other experts to tackle a range of questions about Catholicism that don't have easy, obvious answers.

BEFORE TURNING TWENTY, MY GUEST EXPERIENCED AND INDULGED IN MORE IN THE LA AREA, THAN MOST  PEOPLE IN A LIFETIME. MUSICIAN, CREATIVE, STORYTELLER AND WRITER, JENNIFER FINCH, WAS REMOVED FROM HER ADOPTIVE MOTHER'S HOME AT 11 YEARS OLD. SHE BECAME ASTUTE AT RUNNING AWAY FROM HOME BY THE AGE OF 13. AND AT 14, SHE GOT INTO DRUGS AND PUNK ROCK. SHE ADORED HER MOTHER WHO STRUGGLED WITH MENTAL HEALTH ISSUESAND JENNIFER SAYS “IT WAS A TIME WHEN WOMEN WERE PUNISHED FOR EXPLORING OTHER WAYS TO LIVE THEIR LIVES OUTSIDE OF THE NORM.” JENNIFER FINCH IS THE BASS PLAYER AND VOCALIST IN THE SEMINAL PUNK BAND “L7.”    L7 MADE THEIR TELEVISION NETWORK DEBUT ON THE DAVID LETTERMAN SHOW IN 1992, THEY  HIT THE TOP 10 MUSIC CHART IN THE SAME YEAR.

She"s real and down to earth. She's experienced a lot of life, especially at a young age and today she can look back with acceptance and wise reflection.My guest was born at the Salvation Army center for Unwed Mothers in Los Angeles. As an adoptee, she has a wonderful perspective on family. She shares "family is built on love and not necessarily anything else." She spent a lot of time as a small baby and young child with other adopted children. Her parents told her that "some babies come from mommy's tummies and some do not. Family is family." Being adopted doesn't define Jennifer. Her parents split up after seven years. Her mother was experiencing mental wellness issues, social pressure issues and Jennifer was exposed to extreme behavior. Eventually, Jennifer did find her biological mother and her half sisters. "Curiosity, being open minded and humble" are Jennifer's super powers. "Sandy's resentment," Jennifer believes, "actually helped me to become more and have more acceptance and meet people where they're at instead of forcing narratives of how they should behave."Sandy gave Jennifer many gifts, including the gift of understanding, compassion, the gift of wonderment, life is nuanced and that life isn't always convenient." Throughout her childhood/life she learned the importance of how to maintain friendships and the significance of showing up for other people.Jennifer has been sober for thirty five years. FACEBOOK:https://www.facebook.com/jenniferpreciousfinch/INSTAGRAM: @jenniferfinchTHREADS: @jenniferfinchLINKEDIN:https://www.linkedin.com/in/jenniferfinch/X: @jennifinchBLUESKY: @jenniferfinchOTHER:TIKTOK: privateWEBSITE:www.jenniferfinch.comSUBSTACK:https://substack.com/@jenniferfinch?utm_source=explore_sidebar  "Should Have Listened To My Mother" is an ongoing conversation about mothers/female role models and the roles they play in our lives.

We recorded this episode across Friday afternoon and deep into the evening inside the Blue Zone at COP30. At the time of publishing, there is still no final deal. The negotiations are ongoing, positions are shifting, and the outcome remains uncertain. We know that by the time you listen, some of what we heard today may already have changed, but we decided there was value in sharing the day with you. This episode is meant as a time capsule.We wanted to bring you inside the atmosphere of a COP Friday: the outrage, the optimism, the urgency, and the sheer human effort that goes into trying to land a deal. Rather than wait for the dust to settle, we spoke to the people living this moment. City leaders. Climate diplomats. Ministers from the front lines. Seasoned negotiators who've been in this process for decades. Activists still fighting for the best possible outcome for the planet. Their perspectives were captured as they were living this day, not in hindsight.This episode captures the feeling of a COP Friday: the confusion, the determination, the fear of losing ambition, and the belief, still alive in many corners, that progress is possible if countries choose it.With thanks to those who spoke with us:⁠Eric Garcetti, former US Ambassador to India and former mayor of LA Mark Watts, CEO of C40⁠Matt Webb, Associate Director for Global Clean Power Diplomacy, E3GGustavo Pinheiro, Senior Associate, E3G⁠Irene Velez Torres, Colombian Minister for Environment and Sustainable Development and head of the Colombian delegation⁠Dr. Antwi-Boasiako Amoah, Ghanian Negotiator and incoming head of Africa Group of Negotiators (AGN)Giovanni Maurice Pradipta, Foundation for Sustainability

Today on the show we speak with activists and advocates who are pushing for stronger climate policies and action. The conversation focuses on communities and people who are most vulnerable, climate justice, and the work young people are doing to help.

Activists in Chicago have been tracking federal immigration enforcement agents' movements, following their cars and alerting neighbors with whistles. This resistance sprang into action in response to Trump's Operation Midway Blitz, but it's nearly a decade in the making. NPR's Odette Yousef has the story of a strategy that activists hope can be a blueprint.For sponsor-free episodes of Consider This, sign up for Consider This+ via Apple Podcasts or at plus.npr.org. Email us at considerthis@npr.org. This episode was produced by Connor Donevan.

For more than 150 years, Italy has been home to a resilient and evolving resistance against the pervasive influence of mafias. While these criminal organizations are renowned for their vast international business enterprises, the collective actions taken to oppose them are less known. In Opposition by Imitation: The Economics of Italian Anti-Mafia Activism (U Minnesota Press, 2025), Dr. Christina Jerne explores anti-mafia activism, revealing how ordinary people resist, counter, and prevent criminal economies from proliferating. Drawing on ethnographic fieldwork among anti-mafia alliances in Campania, Sicily, and other parts of Italy, Dr. Jerne details a particular aspect of mafia activities: providing cash relief and other forms of patronage to individuals and groups. Her research shows how activism has evolved to imitate this sustaining role. Activists are increasingly challenging mafia control both by creating alternative economies—from producing food that interrupts mafia labor practices to organizing tourism that supports anti-mafia hospitality—and by subversively adopting business tactics similar to the mafia's to compete with their social influence and legitimacy. Exposing the political implications of this mimetic opposition, Dr. Jerne points to its potential impact on crime prevention and criminalization, both in Italy and globally. Opposition by Imitation shows how these modern-day Robin Hoods are redefining collective action, taking what was controlled by the mafias and returning it to the collective. This contentious economic turn, against the backdrop of broader social movements, reveals significant political possibilities afforded by imitative opposition. 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.

Activists are increasingly challenging mafia control both by creating alternative economies—from producing food that interrupts mafia labor practices to organizing tourism that supports anti-mafia hospitality—and by subversively adopting business tactics similar to the mafia's to compete with their social influence and legitimacy. Exposing the political implications of this mimetic opposition, Dr. Jerne points to its potential impact on crime prevention and criminalization, both in Italy and globally. Opposition by Imitation shows how these modern-day Robin Hoods are redefining collective action, taking what was controlled by the mafias and returning it to the collective. This contentious economic turn, against the backdrop of broader social movements, reveals significant political possibilities afforded by imitative opposition. 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.

For more than 150 years, Italy has been home to a resilient and evolving resistance against the pervasive influence of mafias. While these criminal organizations are renowned for their vast international business enterprises, the collective actions taken to oppose them are less known. In Opposition by Imitation: The Economics of Italian Anti-Mafia Activism (U Minnesota Press, 2025), Dr. Christina Jerne explores anti-mafia activism, revealing how ordinary people resist, counter, and prevent criminal economies from proliferating.

Dr. Greg Hammer, is a Former Professor at Stanford University School of Medicine, Physician, Best-Selling Author, and Mindfulness Expert.It was a wonderful conversation as he shared stories of his grandmother and her love for art and he declaration about using proper english grammar. Greg shares how he inherited  that same consciousness as to being respectful to the english language.A Best Selling Author with an eye on being active and healthy, his recent book is about adults, caregivers, teachers helping teenagers reduce their stress levels by using his meditative technique incorporating Gratitude, Acceptance, Intention and Non judgement in a 3-4 minute daily meditation that anyone can do. He explains and walks us through a short meditation during this conversation.It's important for all of us to have balance in our lives-mental and physical balance and peace.It was a real pleasure speaking and meeting Dr. Greg Hammer.architectInformation about his most recent book: A Mindful Teen: Helping Today's Teenagers Thrive through Gratitude, Acceptance, Intention, and Non judgement Topic: Coping Strategies for Youth this National Suicide Prevention MonthTalk Points: Destigmatization is the key - Suicide is preventable through awareness, education, and accessible resources.The more we discuss mental health in productive ways, the better primed we will be to catch the warning signs before they progress into something serious.Openly discussing mental health encourages youth to initiate those conversations for themselves and ask for help should they need it.Today's teens face stressors that older generations never imaginedSocial media, smartphones, and the internet – and AIAfter-effects of COVID lockdown and isolationThe great political divide, affecting relationships in and outside of familiesIncreasingly competitive college admission and tuitionThe economic pressures their families faceThe Role of Parents and Parenting  - Cultivating Compassion, Forgiveness, and EmpathyThe Risks and How to Spot Them*Early Detection can save your child's life - The warning signs that someone is struggling with their mental health can easily be overlooked (especially amongst teenagers).*The most common symptoms of depression and anxiety (i.e. changes in behavior and mood, irritability, changes in sleep habits, changes in eating habits, withdrawing socially) are also commonly associated with the standard growing pains and hormonal shifts of adolescence. So, how do you know the difference?If something feels off with your child, the best thing you can do is ask.Sit down with your child and have a gentle, but honest conversation about your concerns. You may have to speak with them multiple times before they're ready to open up. Trust your instincts and be gently persistent.Consult a Mental Health Professional: There is no shame in asking for help for both teens and adults.Mindfulness at Home - Encouraging children to practice mindfulness daily can help build their mental and emotional resilience and protect their mental health in the short and long term.*Mindfulness can be a great tool to help teens rewire their brains away from the negativity on which they dwell. It can neutralize their tendency to ruminate over the past, often leading to depression, and to overthinking the future, creating fear and anxiety.The GAIN Method - Gratitude, Acceptance, Intention, and Nonjudgment are the pillars of happiness for teens - and for the rest of us.Website:https://amindfulteen.com/Facebook: @GregHammerMD; https://www.facebook.com/greghammermd/Instagram: @greghammermd; https://www.instagram.com/greghammermd/LinkedIn:https://www.linkedin.com/in/greg-hammer-02b20422/ "Should Have Listened To My Mother" is an ongoing conversation about mothers/female role models and the roles they play in our lives.

Young Activists Plan the Audacious Pan-European Picnic. Matthew Longo describes how in late June 1989, young activists Fedins and Maria in Debrecen conceived an audacious plan to throw a protest party—The Picnic—at the Iron Curtain near Sopron. They aimed to challenge communism and celebrate freedom. Though the Curtain was a deadly "death zone," not a simple fence, they secured a unique one-time crossing, allowing Austrians to join the Hungarians. Guest: Matthew Longo.

Here we go again—'violence prevention activists' who can't stop committing violent crimes themselves. Is anyone shocked that these so-called peacekeepers are racking up murder and assault charges across liberal cities? We're diving into the absolute circus of anti-cop activists who are literally doing the opposite of what they preach, plus the latest Black Lives Matter fraud investigation that has them scrambling for excuses.From Chicago to DC to Philadelphia, these taxpayer-funded 'community heroes' are shooting girlfriends, planning murders, and beating up cops—all while posing with Democrat governors and cashing those government checks. Meanwhile, Charlie Kirk can't even hold a peaceful event without unhinged leftists turning it into a brawl.What did they expect when they put convicted felons in charge of violence prevention? When will these blue cities learn that hiring criminals to fight crime might not be the brilliant strategy they thought it was? The wheels are coming off, folks, and we're here for every ridiculous moment of it.

There is so much we can all learn from seasoned activists, scholars, and organizers as we continue to fight for social justice and collective liberation during these challenging times. Listen as Aaron and Damien discuss the book Read This When Things Fall Apart: Letters to Activists in Crisis, edited by Kelly Hayes (and published by AK Press), which is a compilation of letters to activists and organizers on the frontlines of social movement work offering wisdom, history, personal anecdotes, and practical advice for navigating fascism, social ills, loss, and the challenging times we face, and what we learn and take away from this incredible book in our continued learning and unlearning work and fight for collective liberation.

This is the story of a brave and hard working veteran who had to overcome sorrow, pain and life's hard knocks since he was four years old. Yet he was determined to find a way to a path of balance and clarity in life. Rob mentioned that by the time he was a teen, he felt that he'd rather die overseas than stay living with his father and stepmother. Rob served his country for seven years. After attempting to take his life and being assaulted by a senior officer, he decided that it was time to retire. Insomnia was chronic and conventional treatments weren't helping with Rob's mental health issues  Rob decided to head to Asia and more or less loose himself in the culture, nature and face his demons. He explains, "Instead of waiting, I set out on a journey that changed everything.I lived with tribes in the jungles of the Philippines, spent three months as the disciple of a Hindu monk in the Himalayas, trained under a Shaolin master in China, and later joined a troop of spear fishermen in Boracay who hunted in the deep daily to feed their community during the pandemic.The lessons I gathered became the foundation of my book "Unfiltered Wisdom," a raw look at resilience, self-discovery, and mental health from the inside out." His book, "Unfiltered Wisdom," is the result of re-examining himself, his pain, sorrow, sickness and anger. Rob's first contact with me was this email:"I lost my mother when I was four years old on Christmas Eve in 1987 so I didn't really have much of a relationship with her throughout my life because she was gone.However, my father remarried, and I had a stepmother. We had a very complicated relationship, but she did really help my dad get himself back in order and gave us a way better life than my siblings before he had so I'm definitely grateful for her efforts and sacrifice in that regard.I'm interested in talking about my mom but again I don't really know too much about my real mother other than stories that I was told. My stepmother was the only mother that I knew and I'm comfortable to talk about her, but our relationship was very mixed with a lot of love, but I also experienced quite a bit of abuse so I have mixed emotions about it. It might make a good content to expose and talk about the idea of men having a mother wound.This typically drives them to be adverse to committed relationships and to be overly promiscuous because they don't want the risk of being vulnerable with a woman due to their unhealed mother issues.TURN YOURSELF AROUND FROM BEING A VICTIM AND A PLACE OF WOUNDS AND TURNING IT INTO WISDOM, DEVELOPMENT, HOPE AND PEACE AND ACTUALLY BE WHO YOU WANT TO BE."Rob shared so much with me including his journey throughout Asia, he shared "I lived with tribes in the jungles of the Philippines, spent three months as the disciple of a Hindu monk in the Himalayas, trained under a Shaolin master in China, and later joined a troop of spear fishermen in Boracay who hunted in the deep daily to feed their community during the pandemic."The lessons I gathered became the foundation of my book Unfiltered Wisdom, a raw look at resilience, self-discovery, and mental health from the inside out.https://unfiltered-wisdom.com/the-book/ I admire Rob tremendously for all the work her's done to bring himself inner peace. It's an important lesson, that sometimes following conventional protocol for healing isn't beneficial to all. It's clear that bravery and desperation help us face our illnesses/issues but honesty is the most important thing-being honest with yourself and allow others to help.Social Media Links / Website:            •           Facebook:https://www.facebook.com/robert.greene.799034            •           Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/un_filtered_wisdom/            •           LinkedIn:https://id.linkedin.com/in/unfilteredwisdom            •           Website:www.unfiltered-wisdom.com "Should Have Listened To My Mother" is an ongoing conversation about mothers/female role models and the roles they play in our lives.
