Basking in the glory of his first NASCAR Cup victory, rookie Dale Earnhardt finds himself in the conversation of the top talents in the garage area. Not only has he put the heat on the rest of the rookie class with his triumph, but he's put stock car racing's veterans on notice: the kid from Kannapolis is the real deal. But following up his win would be no easy task, as the next event on the Cup schedule would take him to the track deemed Too Tough To Tame, and the Lady in Black had many hard lessons to teach an overconfident freshman. After Darlington and his first trip to the Paperclip, Dale and the rest of the NASCAR contingent take on a grueling month of May, which includes the fastest race weekend to date at Talladega, a brutal 500-lapper at Dover and the longest contest in stock car racing, the World 600. Join us on this episode of Becoming Earnhardt as we unpack races 8 through 13 of the greatest NASCAR season ever, 1979. Our main character has found the spotlight, but it will be tested by not only some of the toughest events on the calendar but a toe-to-toe battle with none other than the King of NASCAR himself.FanDuel: Must be 21+ and present in select states (for Kansas, in affiliation with Kansas Star Casino) or 18+ and present in D.C.

Lady, as we head into what is hopefully a quiet, restful holiday season why don’t you swap out your phone for a riveting new book that offers an escape into a world where zombies offer a glimpse into the power and beauty that resides in the Haitian culture. Jenna Chrisphonte, a New York-based author and playwright, invites readers on a journey where zombies and voodoo offer a historical perspective of the strength and resilience of Haiti. Talc: A Hatian Zombie Story is a resonant and timely look into how multifaceted revolutionary spirits are and why these stories are important in the Black diaspora. The current regime is trying to assert an oppressive and authoritarian hand in America to quell any desire for an uprising and they are banking on its citizens to be too tired, too scared, and too poor to fight back. Jenna’s work offers a perspective on how the tapestry of unique cultural experiences can weave together to create a resistance stronger than any dark force can conquer. Jenna discusses how her Haitian upbringing allowed her to gather lessons from her people that can be of use during this time of radical restructuring of our democracy. But, if all of that feels heavy just allow Jenna’s strong prose and attention to her craft whisk you away to world where zombies roam. By the end, you may begin to think that they already walk amongst us. What do we mean by that? Tune in!

In this special bonus episode closing out Season 11 of The Remarkable Retail Podcast and the year 2025, hosts Steve Dennis & Michael LeBlanc complete the second half of their annual predictions review—one of the most popular and anticipated episodes of the year. The episode opens with brief but timely discussion on two high-profile retail-adjacent experiences. First us Dennis shares insights from Amazon's first-ever grocery analyst day in Seattle, offering a clearer picture of the company's “one grocery” vision and it's already substantial online presence, now being accelerated as they invest in same day deliver of perishable items.The conversation then turns to Netflix House, following Dennis's visit to the newly opened Dallas location, the second of three that are planned. Positioned in a former department store anchor, Netflix House blends immersive experiences, branded merchandise, gaming, and a restaurant. While customer traffic was encouraging, Dennis offered a frank critique of execution, citing confusing layouts, weak wayfinding, and inconsistent merchandising. The takeaway is cautiously optimistic: the concept has potential, but it is not yet operating at the level that would warrant significant expansion.The core of the episode is Part 2 of Dennis' annual predictions reckoning. Dennis revisits his forecast that department stores would continue “running to stand still,” awarding himself an A-minus as most banners remain stuck in negative or flat comps with limited progress on profitability. His prediction of significant change at Target earns a B-plus, correctly anticipating leadership transitions and the end of the Ulta partnership, though anticipated store closures did not materialize.Dennis also scores highly on his prediction that store closures would once again exceed store openings in the U.S., driven by bankruptcies and retrenchment across drugstores, mid-market apparel, and specialty retail. Predictions around Amazon's physical grocery strategy are largely validated, while expectations for a surge in retail dealmaking and IPO activity fall short, earning a candid C-minus.The episode closes with a nuanced reassessment of the so-called “Ozempic recession.” While the term itself overstated the impact, Dennis and LeBlanc agree that GLP-1 drugs are reshaping consumption patterns—particularly in food, alcohol, and apparel—with long-term implications retailers can no longer ignore.  SPECIAL OFFER for our listeners!

On this episode of “Fearless,” Jason Whitlock explains why so-called “authentically black quarterback culture” is a problem and a burden. He exposes how much of black culture is anti-biblical, because it is a culture of rebellion and anti-submission to authority. Whitlock shows how Shedeur Sanders is the epitome of everything that's wrong with black culture and how his father, Deion Sanders, with his arrogance, gold chains, and rapper persona, is the embodiment of the destructive culture. Black culture, Whitlock concludes, is bad for black quarterbacks, and he points to the fact that white quarterbacks are dominating in the year of black starting quarterbacks. Shaun King joins the show to react to Whitlock's commentary and to make predictions about the Seahawks vs. Rams game tonight.

Clyburn discusses The First Eight: A Personal History of the Pioneering Black Congressmen Who Shaped a Nation, explaining how Reconstruction-era Black lawmakers navigated power, compromise, and backlash—and why their choices still resonate. He reflects on faith as action, not rhetoric, and on history as a guide rather than a museum piece. Plus: Maryland lawmakers override Gov. Wes Moore's veto of a reparations study, and The Spiel turns to a new report on how white men have been squeezed out of cultural institutions—and what that shift means.

Josephine Baker was a dazzling dancer, a fearless spy, and one of the world's first Black superstars. In this episode of Dead Funny History, historian Greg Jenner tells her extraordinary story with wit, warmth and plenty of jazz hands.Born in 1906 in St Louis, Missouri, Josephine's early life was tough. She worked as a maid from the age of eight and fled racial violence with dreams of stardom. By 15, she'd already been married twice and was making waves on Broadway with her unique comic dance style. But it was in Paris where she truly became a sensation by combining tap, ballet, and even kangaroo-inspired moves into her cabaret performances.Greg explores how Josephine used her fame to challenge racist stereotypes, famously performing in a skirt made of bananas to mock colonial attitudes. She became the highest-paid performer in Europe, starred in films, and even had her own line of dolls – all while living with a menagerie of exotic pets, including a cheetah named Chiquita.But Josephine wasn't just a showbiz icon. During World War Two, she became a spy for the French Resistance, smuggling secrets in sheet music and using invisible ink. After the war, she was decorated for bravery and continued to fight for civil rights, speaking at the 1963 March on Washington alongside Martin Luther King Jr.Greg also reveals Josephine's later life, including her adoption of twelve children from different backgrounds to promote unity, and her final triumphant performance before her death in 1975. With jokes, sound effects, and a quiz to test your memory, this episode is a joyful celebration of a truly remarkable woman.Perfect for families and fans of You're Dead To Me, this snappy history lesson brings Josephine Baker's legacy to life.Writers: Jack Bernhardt, Gabby Hutchinson Crouch and Dr Emma Nagouse Host: Greg Jenner Performers: Mali Ann Rees and John-Luke Roberts Producer: Dr Emma Nagouse Associate Producer: Gabby Hutchinson Crouch Audio Producer: Emma Weatherill Script Consultant: Dr Michell Chresfield Production Coordinator: Liz Tuohy Production Manager: Jo Kyle Studio Managers: Keith Graham and Andrew Garratt Sound Designer: Peregrine AndrewsA BBC Studios Production

Paul welcomes back CBS News national security coordinating producer (and Marine infantry veteran) James LaPorta, one of the most tenacious and respected reporters in the national security and veterans' space. From the CBS bureau in Washington, LaPorta brings exclusive reporting, deep sourcing and hard-won combat perspective as Paul rips through a wild 48 hours: Trump's lie-filled prime-time address and new “warrior dividend” checks, a dignified transfer at Dover, rising tensions in Venezuela, new Ukraine aid, Trump's sinking approval and fresh mass shootings in Sydney and at Brown University. LaPorta then walks listeners through what's really happening off the coast of Venezuela—carrier strike groups, Marine Expeditionary Units, submarines and air sorties lighting up flight trackers—and why the U.S. posture is “unprecedented” and eerily reminiscent of the run-up to Iraq. The conversation digs into the escalating war over truth: new Pentagon efforts to restrict press access and punish basic reporting, conspiracy theorists like Laura Loomer moving from Infowars-style harassment into official briefing rooms, and what that means for accountability and safety. In an exclusive segment, LaPorta reveals new details on 18 Navy SEALs disciplined after racist memes targeted a Black teammate, what command climate surveys show about repeated harassment, and how it collides with Trump Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth's push to “de‑woke‑ify” the force and downplay symbols like nooses and swastikas. Paul and James connect it all to recruiting, morale and trust—especially for troops of color and Jewish service members—while talking about FOIA as a weapon for regular citizens and the need to “FOIA and Find Out.” They close with signature IA humanity: LaPorta on Parkland, his Ghostbusters‑obsessed son and a day with the original Ecto‑1, and Paul on watching The Mandalorian with his son as a reminder to keep finding “something good” in anxious times.

The Context of White Supremacy welcomes Emily Lieb. Classified as a White Woman, Lieb is a historian “of U.S. cities, schools, and segregation” and a Brown University graduate. There's currently a manhunt in search of the shooter from this weekend's attack at the ivy league school, we'll be sure to ask her thoughts on the most recent school shooting. Lieb was featured at Seattle's Elliott Bay Book Store earlier this autumn, where she discussed her brand new book Road To Nowhere: How A Highway Map Wrecked Baltimore. This text details how Whites in Baltimore deliberately brutalized black homeowners in the Rosemont region of the city. Black buyers were routinely overcharged for the minuscule housing reserved for black people. Much of Lieb's work strongly enforces that White people are not ignorant about the System of White Supremacy. There are even a few passages where Whites reveal they lie by pretending to be ignorant about Racism.

Isaac Keys is a dynamic force whose journey spans from cracking helmets in the NFL to lighting up TV screens as Diamond Sampson on “Power Book IV: Force.” A two-time All-American and Morehouse Hall of Famer, Isaac embodies relentless ambition and personal reinvention. Beyond his achievements as an athlete and actor, he now steps into the role of author with his new book, "The Grind Don't Stop, It Just Changes," sharing powerful lessons in resilience, personal growth, and the importance of evolving your circle as your ambitions rise. A passionate advocate for mental health and men's emotional vulnerability, Isaac's story is as inspiring as it is relatable. Takeaways: Embrace Change and Growth: Isaac's journey is all about pivoting with purpose, showing that real progress happens when you're not afraid to completely change directions, not just adjust your route. The Power of Your Circle: As you evolve, so should your circle—the people around you can either lift you higher or hold you back, making it crucial to surround yourself with those who genuinely support your vision. Vulnerability is Strength: Both Isaac and Mick Hunt stress that celebrating wins and being open about struggles—especially as Black men—isn't weakness but a vital part of well-being and success. Sound Bites: “The grind don't stop—it just changes. You never truly stop working, you just shift what you're hustling for.” — Isaac Keys “Sometimes adjusting isn't enough. There are moments in life when you need to just change, because life is adjusting with you.” — Mick Hunt “When you try to let go of your past, some people want to hold on because your past benefits them—those are the people you can't be around.” — Isaac Keys Connect & Discover Isaac: Instagram: @isaackeys LinkedIn: @isaac-keys X: @isaackeys Facebook: @isaackeys Website: IsaacKeys.com Book: The Grind Don't Stop

Season 9 continues with another powerful chapter in the Social Media & You series as Izzy Baker sits down with Anthony Dodson, also known as Mr. Six Ways, for a deeply layered conversation about family, legacy, rebranding, and mental health. Recorded during the holiday season, this episode explores how social media has reshaped the meaning of family — sometimes strengthening blood ties, and other times creating chosen communities that feel just as real.Anthony opens up about building a business alongside his daughter and the often unseen tension of balancing fatherhood with entrepreneurship. Together, he and Izzy unpack the emotional weight of legacy, generational wealth, and the responsibility of not passing down unresolved trauma. The conversation challenges the idea that financial success alone defines legacy, emphasizing instead the importance of healing generational wounds, protecting a child's identity, and prioritizing mental health over optics.A central theme of the episode is rebranding — not just online, but internally. Anthony speaks candidly about stepping back from constant social media engagement, losing followers during his transition, and shifting his focus from surface-level financial literacy to character development, burnout recovery, and emotional health. Izzy connects this to his own journey of evolving professionally and creatively, highlighting how rebrands often feel uncomfortable before they feel aligned.The discussion also confronts difficult but necessary topics, including suicidal ideation, survivor's remorse, and the pressure Black men face to remain strong while carrying inherited burdens. Anthony shares how social media can distort self-worth, amplify comparison, and drain mental health, while also acknowledging its potential as a tool for education, community building, and legacy work when used intentionally.As the episode closes, the two reflect on family dynamics, holiday triggers, and what it truly means to leave something better behind — not just money, but memories, emotional safety, and freedom. This episode is for anyone navigating change, questioning their online identity, rebuilding after burnout, or trying to build a future that heals rather than repeats the past.Listen. Reflect. And consider what legacy you're actively rewriting.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/p-s-a-the-mental-health-podcast--5520511/support.TrustBuilder Package

I noticed that something was off for the Democrat terror group. It's like BLM has been on a corporate retreat in the Caymans watching theirs and Hunter Biden's wire transfers clear the bank. Recall that against all odds, Trump won re-election—a third time—in November of 2024. After Trump critically injured a Black woman politically, we heard nothing from BLM. I noted at the time that a Republican winning the presidency would have BLM on auto-dial to cabal requesting marching orders. Yet, nothing happened. There were no riots.The silence was so loud, even the crickets filed a noise complaint.Time for the Inauguration.Surely there would be riots at the inauguration of the second-coming of Adolf? However, there was no chatter to Biden DOJ about any planned disruptions. On inauguration day, there were no significant flare ups.

In this unforgettable episode of Not All Hood, educator and Atlanta Public School Board member Alfred Brooks joins Pam Warner and Candace Kelley for a deeply emotional conversation about Black male teachers, representation in education, grief, legacy, and healing. Brooks shares his journey from growing up around activism to becoming one of the nation's few Black male educators — and the first classroom teacher in 150 years to serve on the Atlanta School Board. He breaks down why Black men in education matter, how he teaches students to unlearn harmful beliefs, and why authentic representation transforms school culture. The episode turns profoundly intimate as Brooks recounts the tragic loss of his 16-year-old son, Bryce, who died saving three children from a riptide. In a rare and powerful exchange, Pam Warner reflects on losing her son, actor Malcolm-Jamal Warner, and the two parents discuss faith, acceptance, legacy-building, and navigating grief while still choosing purpose.
