This week on Your Undivided Attention, we're bringing you Aza Raskin's conversation with Reid Hoffman and Aria Finger on their podcast “Possible”. Reid and Aria are both tech entrepreneurs: Reid is the founder of LinkedIn, was one of the major early investors in OpenAI, and is known for his work creating the playbook for blitzscaling. Aria is the former CEO of DoSomething.org. This may seem like a surprising conversation to have on YUA. After all, we've been critical of the kind of “move fast” mentality that Reid has championed in the past. But Reid and Aria are deeply philosophical about the direction of tech and are both dedicated to bringing about a more humane world that goes well. So we thought that this was a critical conversation to bring to you, to give you a perspective from the business side of the tech landscape. In this episode, Reid, Aria, and Aza debate the merits of an AI pause, discuss how software optimization controls our lives, and why everyone is concerned with aligned artificial intelligence — when what we really need is aligned collective intelligence. This is the kind of conversation that needs to happen more in tech. Reed has built very powerful systems and understands their power. Now he's focusing on the much harder problem of learning how to steer these technologies towards better outcomes.RECOMMENDED MEDIAAza's first appearance on “Possible”The website for Earth Species Project“Amusing Ourselves to Death” by Neil PostmanThe Moloch's Bargain paper from StanfordRECOMMENDED YUA EPISODESThe Man Who Predicted the Downfall of ThinkingAmerica and China Are Racing to Different AI FuturesTalking With Animals...

In this hour, the guys dive into the latest controversies surrounding New York sports and the NFL offseason. The Yankees & Trent Grisham Saga The show opens with a reaction to Brian Cashman's recent interview, where he doubled down on the Trent Grisham trade and contract. The Debate: Cashman calls the $22 million deal a "steal" in the current market, while the hosts debate if Grisham is merely an expensive insurance policy that blocks younger talent like Jasson Dominguez and Spencer Jones. The Roster Impact: Is Grisham's presence stunting the development of "The Martian," or do the Yankees need veteran depth for a World Series run? Giants Ownership & The Epstein Files The conversation shifts to the reports regarding Giants co-owner Steve Tisch and leaked emails connecting him to Jeffrey Epstein. NFL Discipline: A discussion on whether the league will punish Tisch similarly to how they handled other owner controversies, or if the lack of criminal charges protects him. Future Ownership: Speculation arises on the Koch family's minority stake and if they are positioning themselves to take over a local team in the future. Super Bowl Storylines & The "Boring" Build-Up With the Super Bowl approaching, the hosts struggle to find compelling narratives, leading to a "Top 5 Storylines" list that includes: Sam Darnold's "Middle Finger Tour." Fears of a new Patriots Dynasty. The Seahawks/Patriots revenge narrative. Stefon Diggs winning a ring before Josh Allen. 49ers practice facility conspiracy theories. The Kwesi Adofo-Mensah Firing & Paternity Leave A heated discussion regarding the firing of Vikings GM Kwesi Adofo-Mensah and reports citing his two-week paternity leave during training camp as a point of contention. The Contrast: The hosts compare this to Bills coach Joe Brady's comment about missing his child's birth for a game, ultimately concluding that both approaches are personal choices ("to each his own") rather than fireable offenses. NBA & MLB Notes KAT vs. The Critics: A deep dive into Karl-Anthony Towns' statistics. While he is averaging 19 points and 11 rebounds, the hosts note this is his lowest career field goal percentage and effective field goal percentage, sparking a debate on his All-Star validity vs. Pascal Siakam. Reds Sign Suarez: Reaction to Eugenio Suarez signing with Cincinnati and what that means for the Mets' reliance on Mark Vientos.

This is the fourth in a series of eight episodes regarding America's seventh President, Andrew Jackson. Having "saved" the nation at New Orleans, Jackson parlays his newfound hero-status into the territorial governorship of Florida, a seat in the Senate representing Tennessee, and a candidate in the 1824 election to replace James Monroe. But with victory in his grasp, John Quincy Adams, with the aid of two of America's 'monsters,' John C. Calhoun and Henry Clay, conspire to play kingmaker in what would become known (in Jackson's circles) as the Corrupt Bargain.

Pharaoh admits he is wrong. He admits he has sinned.And yet—nothing changes.Why?Because when truth threatens the structure of your life, people rarely surrender. They bargain.They accept reality on their terms, in pieces, with conditions.This parashah exposes a pattern that lives in all of us:the moment when truth becomes too expensive—and we try to negotiate with it.
We focus on the Texas labor movement again in the first half of the program - we talk to Jay Malone about how workers in Houston are building power.

Adam Crowley and Dorin Dickerson react to how productive RB Kenneth Gainwell has been this season for the Steelers in relation to his salary.
Taken as a whole, the plea conference transcript documents the formal moment when Jeffrey Epstein secured an unusually favorable resolution to serious felony charges, one that was explicitly premised on compliance with strict custodial and supervisory conditions. The court accepted the plea on the understanding that Epstein would serve meaningful jail time, submit to sex-offender designation, comply with supervision, and abide by restrictions meant to prevent further harm. On paper, the agreement was presented as a final, enforceable resolution that balanced punishment with accountability, and the court relied on representations that Epstein would follow those terms in full.With the benefit of hindsight, it is now clear that those assumptions did not hold. Epstein's subsequent treatment and behavior—his hollowed-out incarceration, continued privileges, and apparent disregard for key restrictions—call into question whether the plea terms were ever genuinely satisfied. That breakdown matters because the plea deal and the related non-prosecution agreement were conditional arrangements, dependent on good-faith compliance. When viewed in this broader context, the transcript reads not as a clean conclusion, but as the starting point of a failed enforcement process that allowed the protections of the deal to remain in place despite evidence that its core requirements were not being met.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:gov.uscourts.flsd.317867.463.3.pdf

A doctor begins treating a woman who insists that a glowing, supernatural figure — the Shining Man — has been appearing to her. She claims this radiant entity warns her of danger and even predicts deaths. At first the doctor chalks it up to stress and hallucination… until he starts encountering disturbing coincidences that match her visions. The deeper he digs, the more he's pulled into a mystery that blurs the line between psychic prophecy and something genuinely otherworldly. Eventually he must confront whether “THE SHINING MAN” is a benevolent protector… or a harbinger of something far darker. | #RetroRadio EP0568CHAPTERS & TIME STAMPS (All Times Approximate)…00:00:00.000 = Show Open00:01:30.028 = CBS Radio Mystery Theater, “The Shining Man” (March 15, 1977) ***WD00:45:03.622 = Tales of Tomorrow, “The Other Now” (January 22, 1953)01:14:57.930 = The Saint, “College Campus Threat” (April 01, 1951) ***WD01:44:17.155 = Theater Five, “Odds On Tower” (October 28, 1964)02:04:34.644 = Theater 1030, “The Sandman” (1968-1971) ***WD (LQ)02:31:34.724 = Two Thousand Plus, “The Giant Walks” (November 08, 1950) ***WD03:00:27.270 = The Unexpected, “Re-Match” (1947)03:15:16.763 = Unsolved Mysteries, “Indian Fakir” (February 17, 1944) ***WD03:28:54.434 = Columbia Workshop, “Carmilla” (July 28, 1940) (LQ)03:58:20.739 = Dark Venture, “The Man in 206” (December 02, 1946) ***WD04:27:41.133 = The Weird Circle, “Spectre Bride” (1944)04:55:07.840 = Show Close(ADU) = Air Date Unknown(LQ) = Low Quality***WD = Remastered, edited, or cleaned up by Weird Darkness to make the episode more listenable.

Dan praises the frugality of the Pohlad family, while David and Hoges would very much like to see the owners spend more money. They take a look at which players they think will be in the starting rotation, the bullpen and the lineup. They also discuss the likelihood of an MLB stoppage and the potential of a salary cap in the next collective bargaining agreement.

The presidential election of 1876 stands as one of the most contested and consequential turning points in American history. In this episode, I explore the dramatic showdown between Republican Rutherford B. Hayes and Democrat Samuel Tilden, unfolding at a moment when the country was still grappling with the legacy of Reconstruction.Join me as I highlight how a political crisis emerged when disputed returns from the South threw the nation into chaos without a constitutional remedy. What followed was an unprecedented political standoff: the creation of a federal election commission, intense negotiations between Hayes supporters and southern Democrats, and the controversial deal that ended Reconstruction in exchange for securing the presidency.This episode unpacks the maneuvering, the stakes, and the lasting consequences of the 1876 election—all while setting the stage for the next era in the podcast timeline: the rise of the Gilded Age.Support the show
