In this episode of NucleCast, Adam sits down with Paul Amato for an in-depth discussion on the role of theater nuclear weapons in maintaining U.S. deterrence and strategic stability. Drawing on historical lessons from the Cold War and examining today's evolving security environment, they explore why low-yield nuclear capabilities remain an important component of U.S. defense strategy.The conversation examines Russian and Chinese nuclear approaches, the development of low-yield nuclear options in the 2018 Nuclear Posture Review, and the operational realities of deploying and sustaining theater nuclear forces. Amato explains how capability diversity, alliance assurance, and extended deterrence contribute to strategic stability and why maintaining credible options across the escalation spectrum is critical to deterring adversaries.They also discuss common misconceptions about low-yield weapons, the importance of capability symmetry, and what the future nuclear force structure may require as global threats continue to evolve.Paul Amato is the Principal Advisor for Strategic and Nuclear Deterrence at CNA. He is also a nonresident senior fellow at the Atlantic Council's Scowcroft Center for Strategy and Security. From 2016-2025, Amato was director of nuclear deterrence policy in the Office of the Secretary of Defense for Policy, where he and his team led all facets of nuclear deterrence policy development, implementation and allied extended deterrence, including overseeing development and implementation of both the 2018 and 2022 Nuclear Posture Reviews. His experience includes more than a decade as an attorney in private practice, and over twenty-eight years of active and reserve service in the US Marine Corps. Amato is a graduate of Franklin & Marshall College and the University of Pittsburgh School of Law. The views he expresses in this podcast are his own.

How far would someone go for a digital obsession? In this episode, we dive into the chilling case of Grant Amato, a 29-year-old nurse from Chuluota, Florida, whose consuming infatuation with an overseas webcam model ultimately tore his family apart.What began as internet chat rooms quickly spiraled into a devastating addiction. In just a matter of months, Grant stole over $200,000 from his parents and brother to fund his online obsession. When his family discovered the massive theft, they gave him an ultimatum: check into rehab for internet addiction, or face the consequences. But Grant refused to cut ties with the woman in Bulgaria.On January 25, 2019, the ultimate tragedy struck. Investigators discovered the bodies of Grant's father, Chad, his mother, Margaret, and his brother, Cody, executed inside their family home. Grant was gone, along with his family's white Honda Civic. We unwrap the forensic evidence, the gripping police interrogations, and the psychological unraveling that led a son and brother to wipe out his entire family for an illusion.Warning: This episode contains descriptions of family violence and homicide.

Send us Fan MailIn this episode of The Wine Thieves, Sara d'Amato and John Szabo MS turn their attention to one of the most important institutions in global wine: Vinitaly. Guest Stevie Kim — Managing Partner of Vinitaly and the founding force behind the Vinitaly International Academy (VIA) — joins from New York for a wide-ranging conversation about Italian wine on the world stage.Sara and John open with the fair itself: born in September 1967 as a two-day tasting at Verona's Palazzo della Gran Guardia, now a four-day B2B colossus drawing 90,000 visitors from 135 countries. They unpack the 2022 restructuring that split the professional trade fair from the consumer-facing Vinitaly and the City, addressing the criticism — in Veronafiere president Federico Bricolo's words — that the fair had drifted into being "a championship of Italians visiting each other's stands." Two dates land on the calendar for anyone serious about Italian wine: the 59th edition in Verona, April 11–14, 2027, and Vinitaly.USA, returning October 26–27, 2026, at Pier 36 in New York. For Canadian trade especially, NYC is the version of Verona that fits in a long weekend.The conversation also covers VIA — the certification programme launched in 2015 that has quietly become one of the more rigorous credentials in wine. Over 1,500 candidates taught, 525 Italian Wine Ambassadors certified across 57 countries, 22 Italian Wine Experts, and a pass rate hovering around 29%. This is not a participation trophy. Stevie talks about bringing on Professor Attilio Scienza — the University of Milan vine geneticist who, by John's reckoning, has done more DNA work on Italian native varieties than anyone alive — and what changes when you build a wine curriculum from genetics and geology upward rather than tacking regions onto a tasting course.Plus: how a Korean-born, US-raised finance graduate ended up running the promotional engine of the world's most fragmented wine country, and the question that drives the whole VIA project — has the native-variety, region-by-region narrative actually moved buyers and drinkers beyond Barolo, Brunello, Chianti, Amarone, and Prosecco, or is it still mostly an industry conversation?

You know the Tootsie Shot. It's that image that pops up all the time in movies set in a dense city: a really busy midtown street, everyone going somewhere—and smack in the middle of it all is the protagonist. You can find it in Working Girl, Midnight Cowboy, Wall Street, Heartburn, Elf, Bridget Jones's Diary, The Devil Wears Prada, The Wolf of Wall Street, and so many more. But while it's one of the most recognizable camera shots in all of film, it only amounts to a short, transitional moment, often in the middle of a montage, and sometimes lasting for a couple seconds. It is, after all, just someone walking down a crowded street. So why is it so sticky?Some of the voices you'll hear in this episode include James Sanders, author of Celluloid Skyline: New York and the Movies; cinematographer Adam Holender; producer Anna Wenger; assistant director Joe Reidy, author Christopher Bonanos, media and entertainment lawyer Sam Bayard, and location manager Mara Alcaly.

Back in 2009 a movie trailer set the internet aflame. Not because it was for some long-awaited adaptation or giant blockbuster, but because it was so odd people assumed it had to be a prank.

This week on bigcitysmalltown, Bob Rivard sits down with Charlie Amato and Gary Dudley, co-founders of SWBC, to mark the company's 50th anniversary. What began in 1976 with $1,500, a third partner in Dallas, and car trunks for offices has grown into one of San Antonio's largest and most diversified private companies, with 2,500 employees, operations in all 50 states, and a growing presence in Monterrey, Mexico.They discuss:How two friends from the Gulf Coast reunited in college, learned the insurance business from the inside, and quit their jobs on the same day to start something betterWhy they chose San Antonio as their headquarters — and why a vote, a house sale, and a buyout sealed itHow surviving 17–19% interest rates in the 1980s shaped their philosophy on diversification and financial resilienceThe decision to expand into multifamily real estate development — and what the post-COVID softening of that market looks like nowWhy they joined the group that kept the Spurs in San Antonio in 1993, and what that $85 million bet looks like at a $3.5 billion valuationTheir operation in Monterrey — why they went, how H-E-B showed them the way, and how they're thinking about security during the World CupWhat 6,000 intern applications revealed about SWBC's reputation — and how they're thinking about AI across their businessesWhy San Antonio has work to do on corporate recruitment, workforce development, and staying top of mind for CEOsRECOMMENDED NEXT LISTEN:▶ 161. Former Assistant City Manager Lori Houston Reflects on 23 Years at City Hall and Her Next Steps — SWBC's growth mirrors San Antonio's own civic evolution. This episode examines the infrastructure and leadership decisions that shaped the city Charlie and Gary bet on.…..GET THE NEWSLETTER

A recent poll found many farmers have been trying to send distress signals to Washington D.C. in hopes of getting some help, but little is getting done.

Send us a text by clicking this link!Death doesn't schedule itself, and when it arrives suddenly it can make even strong people feel numb, angry, or terrified. We sit down with Father Anthony Amato to talk about what happens on the ground when a family gets that midnight phone call and a priest gets asked to step into the shock, the hospital room, and the aftermath. Along the way, we clear up the stuff Catholics constantly misunderstand, especially last rites, anointing of the sick, confession, and why waiting until someone is unconscious can mean missing the comfort and grace people actually need.We also dig into the spiritual and emotional side: what “cast your anxieties on Christ” looks like in real life, how Eucharistic adoration and the Blessed Sacrament can become the one place you finally stop performing and start trusting, and why abandonment to divine providence isn't passive, it's faith under pressure. If you've ever wondered whether God loves you personally, especially if you're dealing with scrupulosity, shame, or despair, we talk through concrete ways to rebuild that trust without getting trapped in fear driven spiritual reading.Then the conversation takes a sharp turn into the “alien” moment in modern culture. We ask the uncomfortable Catholic questions about revelation, salvation, and whether the popular “non-human intelligence” narrative is really science fiction, spiritual warfare, or a replacement religion. From there we tackle discernment around demons versus mental illness, why it can be complicated, and why the ordinary sacramental life, especially a good confession, is still the most practical place to start.If this helped you, subscribe, share it with a friend who needs it, and leave a review.

Weather looks good this holiday weekend - especially if you're planning outdoor activities. Be careful though! You're not alone. Kiley Allan visits with UW-Madison Extension Entomologist, PJ Leisch, about this year's tick population. Although Wisconsin's weather threw a challenge at the overall insect population, ticks got an early start on activity. Leisch says his colleagues look like it's a "good year" for ticks - so protection is key. Protecting from the bottom up is critical. He says ticks don't fall from the air generally. They crawl up, so shoes, socks, long pants and long sleeves are important. Today may be the coolest day of the holiday weekend according to Stu Muck. Warmer temperatures may vault the state easily into the 80's. There may be a stray shower here or there, but nothing that should stop your outdoor plans. Amato Advisors just completed a survey of farmers across the U.S. asking their opinion on the direction of policy today. Michael Amato, the founder, says it became very clear that farmers believe they are not being heard. Amato says they found that 78 percent of producers across the country believe their biggest challenge are rising input costs. 75% also said they feel that elected official in Washington, D.C. do't understand what it's like to be a farmer right now, and they're not listening. Pam Jahnke shares the details. Okay - it's another part of warmer weather. Mowing the lawn. Or maybe you're just trying to get that lawn established! What don't you know that you should? Ben Jarboe gets his curiousity satisfied by visiting with UW-Madison Extension Turf Grass Specialist, Doug Soldat. From the soil preparation to the seed you select, you need to think about everything according to Soldat. Even the cutting blades on your mower can influence the feel of your lawn!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

About 'The Endless Game' When Fred Townsend and his family move to Lakeside, Illinois, Fred is inducted into a game of capture the flag that has split the entire town in two. But this isn't a normal game. It's been going on for decades and has been passed down from generation to generation. It has its own history, laws, and institutions, with elaborate castle-like bases, dreary prisons, kid-run saloons, and even a council of home-schooled kids that preside over the rules of the game. But for Fred, and all of Lakeside's kids, this unending war is not just about winning—it's also about learning how you want to fit into the world, the power of friendship, and making sure this summer is one they will never forget.

High drama takes place even among the tiny, almost unnoticeable creatures in even the most remote parts of the world. In the frigid waters of Antarctica there's a tiny plankton that kidnaps even tinier chemists for its protection.The tiny shrimp‑like plankton are not much larger than a grain of rice. They spend their days foraging the cold waters for food and hopefully not running into any plankton‑eating fish. The tiny creature has absolutely no defenses of its own. But this creature is not a shrimp without a plan. As it searches about, it may find an even smaller snail‑like pteropod. If it finds one, it will fasten the pteropod to its back, not harming it at all.The pteropod makes a chemical that fish hate. Plankton‑eating fish that have tried to eat one of the shrimp‑like creatures with its chemist backpack have been seen to shake their heads violently and spit the pair out. But the shrimp's captive backpack slows down his foraging for food. So after several days, the shrimp releases the pteropod unharmed, to search for more food and, hopefully soon, another pteropod.It sounds rather silly to suggest that one day, many years ago, one of these tiny plankton noticed that fish never ate pteropods because of the chemical defense they produce. Who would suggest that once he told his friends, all the shrimp‑like plankton started kidnapping pteropods? This strategy was obviously taught to the plankton by the Creator Himself.Job 35:10-11"But none saith, Where is God my maker, who giveth songs in the night; Who teacheth us more than the beasts of the earth, and maketh us wiser than the fowls of heaven?"Prayer: Dear Lord, there is nothing that You have made that You do not care about. Fill me with the same love and concern for what You have created. Help me to love my fellow human beings as you do. Amen.REF.: Amato, Ivan. Kidnapped plankton shares its defenses.

Blood is made up of many components. Red blood cells carry oxygen to all parts of the body. And even though hemoglobin is based on iron, the healthy body, protected by rust inhibitors, doesn't rust. White cells and other blood components fight infection. It's difficult to decide which of the components of blood are more amazing in their design.But if awards were given to the various components of blood for the amazing ways in which they work, serum albumin would certainly be in the running. Like one of those gadgets advertised on cable television, serum albumin seems to do more things in the bloodstream than seems possible.Serum albumin, which is made by the liver, regulates the volume of your blood, helping to keep your blood pressure healthy. It also controls your blood concentration so that all the components are there in the right concentration. It stores molecules and moves them to where they are needed when they are needed. When you take an aspirin or a drug, serum albumin sees to it that the medicine gets to where it is needed. Serum albumin also prevents an enzyme that digests proteins in your digestive tract from digesting proteins in the rest of your body.Indeed, as the Bible says, much of our physical life happens in our blood. But eternal life is only found in the blood of Jesus Christ, shed on the cross in our place—His death in our place—for the forgiveness of our sins before our Creator.Romans 5:8-9"But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. Much more then, being now justified by his blood, we shall be saved from wrath through him."Prayer: Lord, I thank You for the miracle of life. I especially thank You for the gracious and free gift of eternal life through the forgiveness of sins. When I am tempted to comfort myself with my own good life, remind me of my constant need for cleansing in your blood. Amen.REF.: Amato, I. Serum albumin seen in three dimensions. Science News.

When our students face challenges in the classroom, some teachers double down on control and rigor: tighter rules, firmer consequences, higher demands. Others lean toward grace and flexibility: easing up, giving extensions, and softening expectations because they know our students are carrying a lot. But what if the answer isn't either/or? Warm Demander pedagogy is an approach that pairs genuine care and deep relationship-building with unwavering high expectations. It's the belief that students need to feel seen, respected, and valued — and that we honor them most by refusing to lower the bar. In today's episode, I'm joined by educators Marcee Harris and Dr. Wendy Amato. They explain what Warm Demander pedagogy looks like in action, how it supports student agency and productive struggle, and why it's especially relevant for teachers right now. ___________________________ Thanks to Renaissance and SchoolAI for sponsoring the episode.

What happens when you're standing at a pivot point — the kind where your next move could shift everything for your business, your team, or your career? In those high-stakes moments, success doesn't come from spreadsheets alone. It requires empathy, emotional intelligence, and even self-compassion.Kasey D'Amato knows this firsthand. A keynote speaker, executive coach, and strategic advisor, Kasey has guided founders and corporate leaders through major transitions with clarity and resilience. In our conversation, we dug into her four pillars of holistic leadership and how self-regulation shapes better decisions. We explored the “decision threshold,” why every choice has three outcomes, and how to balance head, heart, and gut when the numbers don't tell the full story. Kasey also shared why grounding yourself is key to hearing other perspectives without defensiveness — and how empathy and self-compassion aren't soft skills, but strategic advantages when the stakes are high.To access the episode transcript, go to www.TheEmpathyEdge.com, search by episode title.Listen in for…Finding the balance of the decision threshold - that point between gathering information and making the decision.

O que é um animal exótico? Um mesmo animal pode ser exótico em algum lugar mas noutro não? E o que seria um animal selvagem? E silvestre? Essa semana conversamos sobre essas definições todas e como esses animais podem estar presentes no nosso dia a dia. Além disso, quais os impactos de termos esses animais à disposição em nosso país? Como acontece o mercado e quais as consequências para os animais, para o meio ambiente e para nós, humanos? Patronato do SciCast: 1. Patreon SciCast 2. Apoia.se/Scicast 3.

In this episode of Trauma Rewired, Jennifer Wallace and Elisabeth Kristof welcome author, speaker, and embodiment coach Preston Smiles for a powerful conversation on the Father Wound — and how paternal presence or absence shapes the nervous system. Together, they explore how a father's regulation, emotional availability, and play patterns influence brain development, stress physiology, attachment, intimacy, and leadership. Drawing from both lived experience and developmental research, this episode examines the real impact of masculine containment — not through blame, but through understanding. From childhood patterning to adult relationships, parenting, and community repair, this conversation offers grounded insight, somatic depth, and a hopeful path toward nervous system healing. Timestamps: 00:00 – Intro/The Good Boy Pattern 08:00 – The Father Wound 17:30 – Play and Masculine Energy 33:30 – Shame and Reclaiming the Masculine 52:30 – Capacity and Embodied Partnership Key Takeaways: The fatherwound isn't just emotional, it's neurological and somatic, shaping how we regulate stress, relate, and play. Healthy masculine presence supports brain development through movement, physical play, safety, and co-regulation. Many relational patterns come from what was never modeled, not from personal failure. Healing happens through embodied experience, safe relationships, and repeated nervous system repair, not just insight.
