Five years since Covid, not only has the pandemic affected the way we live and work, it's also influencing the way researchers are thinking about the past. In this episode archaeologist Alex Bentley from the University of Tennessee explains how the pandemic sparked new research into how disease may have affected ancient civilisations, and the clues this offers about a change in the way humans designed their villages and cities 8,000 years ago.This episode was written and produced by Katie Flood and hosted by Gemma Ware.

On this episode of The Talk of Fame Podcast, we got to chat with Alex Bentley! a dynamic Middle Eastern-American actor and producer with a story that's as inspiring as it is unique. Born in sunny San Diego and raised in the Middle East, Alex's journey to the spotlight is anything but ordinary. Before gracing our screens, he was chasing a professional baseball career, playing semi-pro in Mexico and Europe and now playing for the Firefighters in The Savannah Bananas League. But fate had other plans. While playing college ball in San Diego, he scored his first role—playing a Padres player on FOX's Pitch. That moment marked his unexpected, but powerful, pivot from the diamond to the screen. Since then, Alex has lit up projects like Beckman alongside Brighton Sharbino and Billy Baldwin, Pam & Tommy with Sebastian Stan, Tell It Like A Woman opposite Jennifer Hudson, and 80 for Brady with legends Jane Fonda and Sally Field. Listen in as we discuss Alex's Journey & playing baseball for the Firefighters. You'll be inspired by his dedication to her craft and making a difference for young baseball fans.Follow Me:Instagram:@Officialkyliemontigney@TalkoffamepodFacebook:OfficialkyliemontigneyTalkoffameTwitter:@Kyliemontigney4About Me:Hi, I'm Kylie!

In this episode of Get Seen Unscripted, Alex Bentley shares his unique journey balancing careers in both acting and professional baseball, highlighting the challenges and triumphs of pursuing dual passions. He offers invaluable advice on maintaining professionalism, the importance of not burning bridges in the small world of the entertainment industry, and staying "hungry" while avoiding the pitfalls of being "thirsty" for success. The discussion delves into the mental resilience required in both fields and underscores the significance of preparation, discipline, and authentic networking in building a sustainable career.

In the 1970s, Sandra Bundy was working hard at her job at the Department of Corrections in Washington DC. She loved her job, but just turning up to work was becoming unbearable. Sandra's male supervisors kept propositioning her for sex, asking her out on dates and making inappropriate comments. When she reported the problem to her boss's boss, he tried to proposition her too. As the situation escalated, the language of sexual violence was used. Sandra knew what she was experiencing was wrong, but she didn't have the words to describe what she was going through, let alone try and seek justice. In this episode of Sideways, Matthew Syed delves into the history of the anti-sexual harassment movement in the US in the 1970s to understand how finding the right words can help us tackle big wrongs. He'll discover how culture, politics and the law intersect to bring about new ideas, and how these ideas filter down into our everyday understanding of the world. With Sandra Bundy, philosopher Miranda Fricker, social historian Linda Hirshman, lawyer Arthur Chotin and anthropologist Alex Bentley.

For millennia, sociocultural complexity increased (and occasionally decreased) gradually over many human generations, as people inherited traditional knowledge within kin-based local communities. In these settings, where knowledge was shared within populations and across generations, selection was probably the key driver in norms of human adaptive behavior. In the 21st century, however, knowledge is transmitted across populations and within generations — and evolutionary patterns may resemble random drift more than selection in increasingly many settings. To span these different scales and modes of cultural evolution, different representations are useful, including fitness landscapes and a heuristic representing the transparency of payoffs in social learning. Using examples from computational social science, I will discuss how cultural evolution may have profoundly changed from the ancient past to present-day.
Javi welcomes Alex Bentley to the show as he promotes his upcoming TV series ON DECK.

Our evolutionary success, according to co-authors Alex Bentley and Michael O'Brien, lies in our ability to acquire cultural wisdom and teach it to the next generation. Today, we follow social media bots as much as we learn from our ancestors. We are radically changing the way culture evolves. In The Acceleration of Cultural Change: From Ancestors to Algorithms (MIT Press, 2017), Bentley and O'Brien describe how the transmission of culture has become vast and instantaneous across an internet of people and devices, after millennia of local, ancestral knowledge that evolved slowly. Long-evolved cultural knowledge is aggressively discounted by online algorithms, which prioritize popularity and recency. If children learn more from Minecraft than from tradition, this is a profound shift in cultural evolution. Bentley and O'Brien examine the broad and shallow model of cultural evolution seen today in the science of networks, prediction markets, and the explosion of digital information. They suggest that in the future, artificial intelligence could help solve the problem of information overload, learning to integrate concepts over the vast milieu of digitally stored information.

Host and Editor-in-Chief of The Summitt (Summitthoops.com) Howard Megdal is joined by Connecticut Sun coach/GM Curt Miller.

Training camp for the Connecticut Sun opened this week with two of last year’s first round draft choices recovering from knee surgeries, a procedurally suspended star not around due to an Achilles injury, a former all-star in camp trying to come back from multiple surgeries, and a starting point guard with her foot in a boot. Just a normal day in Uncasville, for Curt Miller right? In spite of all of the above, year two of the Miller coaching era, a/k/a year one of the Miller General Manager era began with optimism. The coaching staff and several important pieces of the roster return to the Sun, and the team, especially the backcourt, has hit the ground running. There is less time being spent on terminology, explanation, and justification, and more time spent on execution, timing, and working with each other. Part of the optimism is the offseason signings of Chiney Ogwumike, Jasmine Thomas, and Alex Bentley to new contracts. For many reasons, the Sun has been a bit of a transient franchise; a place where players have played but wanted to move on to other teams. The commitment of three core players, plus having second year players Jonquel Jones, Morgan Tuck, Rachel Banham, and Courtney Williams still under their initial deals gives the team a real basis to grow on. Only Alyssa Thomas from the starting lineup will need to be signed after the season, and there is no reason to think that would be a problem. Jones will be important this season, as Miller is counting on her to continue to grow from a very good rookie year. She had an outstanding winter in Korea, winning the league title and Most Valuable Player awards, and will be one of those counted on to fill the gap caused by Ogwumike’s absence. Lynetta Kizer, acquired from Indiana, will likewise fill in some of the gaps up front, and her physicality will be a plus with Jones being a slighter and taller player. It is a pleasure to welcome Coach Miller back to Dishin &
