In 2006, Ivana Baquero starred in Guillermo del Toro's Spanish-language film Pan's Labyrinth. The film tells the story of an 11-year-old girl who meets mythical creatures on a quest to achieve immortality and return to the underworld as a princess. However, it isn't your typical fairy tale. Set in 1944, against the backdrop of Franco's fascist Spain, the film is hard-hitting and at times violent. Ivana Baquero speaks to Tim O'Callaghan about starring in the film when she was an 11-year-old. Eye-witness accounts brought to life by archive.

Ra Ra Braille! We at Outlook are cheerleaders for braille, whether it's Braille Literacy Month in January or now being into the month of February and for this first Mixed Bag show of the month following January's BLM, we continue talking braille this and braille that. This time we're talking third co-host BF Barry using his learned braille skills to play a card game with brother/co-host Brian or Brian having a go at playing a new game on his phone: Whack a Braille! “An audio first and blind first game built around increasing your touch typing and braille literacy.” This week we're talking bagpipes, supporting local, and accessible app and game development with Barry's tales of his favourite inclusive game Glory Frontline. Sister/co-host and Birthday Girl Kerry shares about an audiobook she's been reading, a memoir by a female musician first introduced to Kerry at the Perkins Museum in Boston in 2024 - I Identify as Blind: A Brazen Celebration of Disability Culture, Identity, and Power. Lachi says about disability, “Just say the word,” along with describing what she terms “disploitation” meaning the exploitation of people and their disabilities (for centuries with a bunch of racism tossed into the mix), then speaking of PEP which stands for positivity, empathy, and pride in the “Disability Movement” and in oneself. And speaking of...Kerry talks trying to be open to another side or perspective (in this case a conservative viewpoint) with a recent Canadian Conservative Leadership Review weekend in Alberta and a Con politician who propped up a trans Con to say that intersectionalities like those on the gender spectrum are unimportant: “Me being trans as like the least interesting thing about me,” this person said on said politician's video This, Kerry and the boys discuss, is about ideology and tokenism and the well-known “I have a black friend” defence for things like belittling and scrapping the need for EDI (equity/diversity/inclusion) even if that is representative of recognising us all, on this show, as full human beings who acknowledge all the parts of us. So from online and virtual games to the old-school card games made accessible, whether it's using braille or listening skills and being comfortable with our own voices with a good old-fashioned ramble we're delving into the mixed bag of topics for this one at the start of this Rare Disease Month.

What does it mean to truly belong at the table — as a guest and as the one designing the experience? This Black History Month, I'm hosting an Eating at a Meeting Podcast LIVE conversation with two extraordinary Black women leaders in the events industry: Zoe Moore (Grow with Zomo) and Diane R. Brown, MBA (Derby Brown Productions). We'll explore how to design events that honor Black history, culture, and community—not just in February, but every time we gather. We'll cover: • What Black History Month means in 2026 for event pros. • The real state of equity and belonging in events and hospitality. • How food, beverage, and supplier choices can either reinforce or repair harm. • Practical ways to source and support Black‑owned caterers, restaurants, and suppliers. Food is culture. Gathering is community. Honoring both isn't a checkbox — it's a practice you can design for.

On this episode of The Locher Room, Alan Locher sat down with Ambyr Michelle and Trisha Mann-Grant, who star as Eva and Leslie Thomas on CBS's Beyond the Gates.Fresh from the set, Ambyr and Trisha talked about building their on-screen mother-daughter dynamic, the audition and screen test process, and what it's been like stepping into a brand-new daytime series led by an all-Black cast with many Black creatives behind the scenes.The conversation also touched on Black History Month and the significance of Beyond the Gates receiving an NAACP Image Award nomination in its first year on the air. Ambyr shared details about her new book, Built in the Chaos, out now, and the creative and spiritual journey that led her to write it. Trisha reflected on her 2018 book, Amazing Testimonies, and spoke openly about faith, family, and the experiences that continue to shape her life and work, including a powerful moment where she shared a message inspired by her son.From gratitude for the fans to purpose-driven storytelling, this was an honest and heartfelt conversation with two artists deeply grounded in their craft.

In 1934, one of the most controversial propaganda movies ever made - Triumph of the Will – was filmed at the Nazis' Nuremberg rally. The two-hour picture was directed by Leni Riefenstahl, once described as Adolf Hitler's favourite filmmaker. Over four days, scenes of military marches, speeches, and parades were shot from dramatic angles. Long-focus lenses recorded close-ups of the crowds, and cameras filmed from moving cars. But, while to some Riefenstahl was an artistic genius, to many others, she glorified a regime that would go on to be responsible for the death of millions. And for portraying a genocidal dictator as a god-like saviour. Jane Wilkinson has been through the BBC archives to find out more.Eye-witness accounts brought to life by archive.

As a pendant to, and continuation of, my Black History Month 2026 series on Countermelody, I am pleased and honored to present to you the exquisite African American lyric soprano Klesie Kelly, who, as with numerous other singers that we have explored together this month, has made her life, career, and home abroad, in this case, Germany, where she came to pursue post-university studies in Detmold and from there simply put down roots. Though unlike me, Kelly was not born in Milwaukee, she did spend some of her formative years there, including pursuing her undergraduate degree at the University of Wisconsin Madison. In her years in Germany, Kelly was not only an active and deeply respected both on the operatic stage and the concert platform (where her performances of Bach were particularly lauded), but she also dedicated herself to the education of many of the finest singers to have come through the Musikhochschule in Köln. I have managed to unearth a number of invaluable sound documents of Klesie Kelly, including a number of recordings of Lieder and duets with instrumental obbligato accompaniment, and peerless performances of Bach cantatas, as well as a 1970 concert performance of Porgy and Bess in the Netherlands, and an ultrarare recording made during her undergraduate years in Wisconsin. Excerpts from all of these are heard on the episode, which salutes (and delivers flowers to) one of the most respected German-American musical figures of her generation. Countermelody is the podcast devoted to the glory and the power of the human voice raised in song. Singer and vocal aficionado Daniel Gundlach explores great singers of the past and present focusing in particular on those who are less well-remembered today than they should be. Daniel's lifetime in music as a professional countertenor, pianist, vocal coach, voice teacher, and author yields an exciting array of anecdotes, impressions, and “inside stories.” At Countermelody's core is the celebration of great singers of all stripes, their instruments, and the connection they make to the words they sing.

In May 1974 India successfully detonated its first atomic device. It had been developed in secret with the codename Smiling Buddha. India called it a peaceful nuclear explosion, though the experimental device was in effect a plutonium bomb. The test was seen as a triumph of Indian science and technology, but it led to the suspension of international nuclear cooperation with India, and spurred Pakistan to speed up development of its own nuclear bomb. Dr SK Sikka, who was one of India's leading nuclear scientists, spoke to Alex Last in 2018 about his role in the secret project. Dr Sikka died in 2023 at the age of 82.

“He's looking at me…”   Released on August 22, 1989, CLIMBIN' THE WALLS, the major label debut album from Martinsburg, West Virginia thrash metal savants WRATHCHILD AMERICA, is undoubtedly one of the most uniquely profound thrash metal albums in all of heavy metal history to be crafted by one of the most extraordinarily talented (and criminally underrated) bands in the entire genre.    And to think, for many metalheads back in the day, their very first experience with this album was in a LIVE concert setting, opening for Testament. Just imagine how blessed one would be to see a band as unbelievable as WRATHCHILD AMERICA (for the very first time) opening for an established act like Testament and being completely blown away after just one show, having NEVER heard the album before getting to see them LIVE!    “He's making eye contact…”   With a stylistic palette that blends thrash, heavy metal, and 70's classic rock, there is absolutely NO ONE else in metal who sounds ANYTHING like them. And if you're jonesing to purchase a copy of CLIMBIN' THE WALLS, not to worry, because it was recently re-released (along with their second and final album, 3-D) as part of a two-CD package with a couple of bonus tracks.    “Is he still lookin' at you?”   Get ready for a trip back through time to the days of yore, when thrash was still riding high and the opening band for Testament absolutely blew the minds of everyone in attendance when you JOIN US for one of the greatest and most underrated metal albums of all time with WRATHCHILD AMERICA: CLIMBIN' THE WALLS.   (Also, just in case you might be wondering, there's an early (we're talking “6 years ago, during the Hodges Era” early: 02/20/2020) episode appropriately dubbed WRATHSAZ, which is a combo episode featuring both WRATHCHILD AMERICA and the darker, groovier, heavier incarnation that followed, Souls At Zero.)   Visit www.metalnerdery.com/podcast for more on this episode Help Support Metal Nerdery https://www.patreon.com/metalnerderypodcast Leave us a Voicemail to be played on a future episode: 980-666-8182 Metal Nerdery Tees and Hoodies – metalnerdery.com/merch and kindly leave us a review and/or rating on your favorite Podcast app Follow us on the Socials: Facebook - Instagram - TikTok Email: metalnerdery@gmail.com Can't be LOUD Enough Playlist on Spotify Metal Nerdery Munchies on YouTube @metalnerderypodcast Show Notes: (00:01): “See?

The Epstein War, El Mencho's Blue Balls, and America's Next Top ModelI recorded this from my studio apartment in Los Feliz, in the lobotomizing sunshine of psychedelic Southern California, and despite my suntanned brain tissue. I have thoughts.Thoughts on the BAFTAs disaster during Black History Month. Thoughts on the BBC censoring “Free Palestine” while airing something they absolutely should not have aired. Thoughts on Larry Ellison buying a Hawaiian island, abandoning it, and moving 20 minutes from Mar-a-Lago like the demon he is. Thoughts on the Ellison-Paramount-Warner Brothers megadeal that will make sure every story you consume is owned by like, three guys.El Mencho is dead. The Jalisco Cartel boss, one of the most wanted men on earth, tracked down through a girlfriend. Very Adriana La Cerva coded. Mexico is burning and none of it touches the Epstein files, which is, I suspect, the whole point.America and Israel bombed Iran at 4am whilst we all slept. We woke to the killing of little girls. The Epstein War. Look over there guys! Don't look at what's happening here.Oh, and America's Next Top Model? We always knew it was fucked. Some of us said so at the time. “It was a different era” is not the excuse people think it is.This one's behind the paywall, over on Patreon (patreon.com/thisbodypodcast) because frankly it has to be. It's got Dead Kennedys, it's got cartel kingpin romance, it's got me ranting about the Kennedy family's collective karma while bleeding for the second time in three weeks.Subscribe to hear the whole thing. I'll see you after the flood. This is a public episode. If you'd like to discuss this with other subscribers or get access to bonus episodes, visit sofiacaramella.substack.com/subscribe

On 11 September 1985 in Mangualde, central Portugal, an express train collided head-on with a regional train killing an estimated 150 people.The impact destroyed both engines and the leaking diesel caught fire. Many of the bodies were unidentifiable after passengers who survived the collision were trapped in the wreckage and unable to escape the blaze and toxic fumes. An inquiry found both trains had been allowed to use the same single track line when the express should have had priority. A station master who realised the mistake was unable to contact the drivers in time. Most of the victims' remains are buried in a mass grave near the disaster site and a small chapel has now been built where memorial services take place every year.Jacqueline Paine speaks to former voluntary fire station Commander Américo Borges who was one of the first on the scene.Eye-witness accounts brought to life by archive.

In this Black History Month special, Professor Julian Wamble turns the lens on the five Black characters in the Harry Potter series, Angelina Johnson, Lee Jordan, Kingsley Shacklebolt, Blaise Zabini, and Dean Thomas, and asks a question the fandom rarely sits with: what does race actually mean in a world that insists it doesn't?From Angelina Johnson's under-examined arc as a Black woman Quidditch captain managing a volatile white protagonist, to Lee Jordan's belonging tethered entirely to his proximity to the Weasleys, to Kingsley Shacklebolt's frictionless institutional ascent, to Blaise Zabini's unsettling full investment in a purity hierarchy that mirrors the one that would exclude him in any other world, each character illuminates a different dimension of what it costs to exist in a space whose baseline was never you.

In celebration of Black History Month, this special service commemorates the contributions of four African American Leading Lights to New Thought Spirituality and Unity Consciousness, and the tenets they've enacted to advance humanity. Our guest speaker Rev. Bryndé Lambert's passion is service through leadership and program development. An advocate for social justice, she empowers others to use spiritual principles to create personal and global change. Spiritual Life Center is an Interfaith, Unity community located in Sacramento, California for spiritual seekers and life explorers. We honor the many paths to God and support people of all faiths in learning and applying positive spiritual principles in their daily lives.

Outraged by the Christmas bombings of Hanoi in 1972 by the USA during the Vietnam War, the Swedish Prime Minister Olof Palme made a critical speech. He compared the US's actions to several massacres from history, including the killing of hundreds of thousands of Jews at the Treblinka Concentration Camp by the Nazis. President Richard Nixon and National Security Advisor Henry Kissinger reacted by recalling their ambassador and refusing to accept the Swedish counterpart. Jan Ellisson was the first person to see the speech in the Swedish embassy in Washington and spent the next 15 months working to re-establish relations.He has been speaking to Tim O'Callaghan.

The Context of White Supremacy hosts the weekly Compensatory Call-In 02/28/26. We encourage non-white listeners to dial in with their codified concepts, new terms, observations, research findings, workplace problems or triumphs, and/or suggestions on how best to Replace White Supremacy With Justice ASAP. This weekly broadcast examines current events from across the globe to learn what's happening in all areas of people activity. We cultivate Counter-Racist Media Literacy by scrutinizing journalists' word choices and using logic to deconstruct what is reported as "news." We'll use these sessions to hone our use of terms as tools to reveal truth, neutralize Racists/White people. #ANTIBLACKNESS Gus thinks we may have survived one more Black History Month. Despite a few bomb threats in Ohio and mild episodes of Racial Terrorism, February was generally quiet on the plantation in the US. Although, State Senator and pastor Michael Jones's Village of Faith Ministries church in Virginia was racially terrorized. Former Pres. Bill Clinton and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton testified before the House Oversight Committee about disgraced Racist Suspect Jeffrey Epstein. Condolences for and memories of the late Jesse Jackson Sr. continue to stream in. White and non-white people around the world continue to cite a myriad of ways that Jackson attempted to counter-racism. The Switzerland-based company Novartis settled a lawsuit with the family of Henrietta Lacks for decades of profiteering from her stolen genetic material. Across the pond in London, privileged black male actors Michael B. Jordan and Delroy Lindo were verbally assaulted while presenting an award at the BAFTA Films Awards Ceremony. The Racist eruption was captured on the BBC broadcast. #EndStageWhiteSupremacy INVEST in The COWS – http://paypal.me/TheCOWS Cash App: https://cash.app/$TheCOWS CALL IN NUMBER: 720.716.7300 CODE 564943#

[In honor of Black History Month, we're highlighting some past conversations recorded with some former guests with diverse experiences]Addiction hurts those who struggle as well as those who love the one doing the battling. Irene Rollins shares how her alcohol addiction almost cost her everything  most dear to her. This story and what she's learned on her journey is the foundation of her book Reframe Your Shame: Experience Freedom from What Holds You Back. If you struggle with addiction, you are loved, and as long as there's breath in your lungs, your story can be redeemed. With Lynne Stroy, Tomelex Copeland, and Joey Svendsen contributing to the conversation with Irene, the four also discuss the nature of women being competitive with one another; they talk about whether they have a special trust in businesses who claim to have Christian owners and navigate whether it's ever too late to bring up a grievance to one who has offended.  Irene Rollins is a certified emotional intelligence coach; she loves to study human behavior, enabling her to understand a wide variety of people and guide them to be the best version of themselves through her teaching, writing, and coaching.After almost twenty-five years in full-time ministry, serving as Senior Pastors of a thriving church called i5 City, Irene and her husband Jimmy felt a shift in their ministry focus. Irene and Jimmy founded the ministry of TWO = ONE with a mission to help build strong marriages that result in healthy families that impact our communities for the better.In this episodeIrene Rollins / Instagram / Book / Marriage MinistryLynne Stroy, host / InstagramTomelex Copeland, host / FacebookJoey Svendsen, host / InstagramBe a Patron of the podcast We have a YouTube Channel for videos of all episodes since Jan. 2024.

American Prospect (2/23/26) This week on CounterSpin: US news media don't show a serious interest in history generally, as you can see from many outlets' pretense to offer “all you need to know” about current events in a matter of minutes. In the case of the Trump administration, presenting US history through media is important and relevant—as long as Trumpists are fully in charge of who defines what happened and what it means. So when Trump-appointed FCC chair Brendan Carr—he who attacks basic anti-discrimination measures in media, and overtly threatens the licenses of outlets determined insufficiently deferential to right-wing powers on the daily—says, “I believe in the greatness of our country,” you're of course right to beware. And all the more when he adds that he's “looking forward to broadcasters showcasing the country's inspiring history” by taking a pledge that he's drawn up, committing to do the right thing with regard to America's 250th birthday, for which the White House has big plans. But the man actively orchestrating interference-unto-cancellation of talk shows deemed guilty of “improper ideology” wants us to know that participation in the pledge, by the media outlets under his regulatory control, is “voluntary.” If you didn't already understand how vital is an understanding of US history, rooted in who's allowed to tell it, you would suspect it from this White House's ham-handed efforts to twist and erase and shout over it. There's a screaming void that journalists could be working to fill. Some are, some aren't. But as we look to encourage a rising up of people in response to the anti-democratic juggernaut, we can remember the words of Ida B. Wells: “The people must know before they can act, and there is no educator to compare with the press.” We talk about attacks on, and defenses of, our ability to learn and learn from this country's history with Naomi Bethune. She's the John Lewis Writing Fellow at the American Prospect. She’s featured this week on CounterSpin. https://media.blubrry.com/counterspin/content.blubrry.com/counterspin/CounterSpin260227Bethune.mp3 Plus Janine Jackson takes a quick look at coverage of Trump’s “Board of Peace.” https://media.blubrry.com/counterspin/content.blubrry.com/counterspin/CounterSpin260227Banter.mp3

For this pledge drive, listeners try their hand at a quiz. Today's theme is Black History Month. Photo: Carter G. Woodson memorial on RI Ave at 7th NW in Washington, D.C. by David from Washington, DC, CC BY 2.0.

As parents, many of us want to raise kind, empathetic kids, but we don't always feel equipped to talk about race, bias, and identity in everyday life. In honor of Black History Month, this conversation feels especially important. I sit down with culturally responsive therapist Anjali Ferguson to unpack how early children begin noticing differences and how small, ordinary moments shape their understanding of the world. We talk about the discomfort adults feel, the fear of saying the wrong thing, and why silence often teaches more than we realize. This episode is not about blame. It is about giving families tools to move forward with intention. Dr. Ferguson brings both professional expertise and deeply personal experience as a South Asian woman raising biracial South Asian and Black children. Together we explore how culture, trauma, and identity intersect in parenting, and why these conversations are not optional extras, but foundational to raising emotionally healthy kids. Her children's book, An Ordinary Day, shows how subtle bias can show up in everyday childhood experiences and how families can use those moments to build empathy instead of fear. My hope is that this episode helps parents feel less frozen and more ready to start small, stay curious, and keep showing up. We discussed:  • Why kids notice race and differences earlier than most adults expect • How racial bias forms in early childhood • The gap in culturally responsive parenting resources • Growing up between cultures and identity formation • Raising biracial children and protecting cultural identity • Everyday microaggressions and their long-term impact • How racism creates chronic stress in the body • Generational trauma and epigenetic effects • The role of racial socialization in protecting children • Why avoiding conversations about race harms kids • How parents can respond when bias shows up in real time • Teaching empathy through ordinary daily moments • Building diverse environments through books, toys, and media • Supporting kids when they experience exclusion or bias • Why parents don't have to be perfect to start • Practical ways families can talk about race at any age To connect with Dr. Anjali Ferguson follow her on Instagram @dranjaliferguson, check out all her resources at https://draferguson.com/ and buy her book “An Ordinary Day”: https://www.amazon.com/Ordinary-Day-Dr-Anjali-Ferguson/dp/B0B8BDNXVK  Additional Resources: www.parentingculture.org 00:00 The Hidden Impact of Microaggressions 00:56 Why This Conversation Matters During Black History Month 02:57 Representation in Parenting Spaces 06:34 Dr. Anjali's Personal Story: Culture, Trauma, and Identity 10:42 Racism as Trauma: A Professional Awakening 14:30 Parenting Biracial Black Children 19:32 When Do Kids Notice Race? 24:56 Inside An Ordinary Day and Why It Matters 31:37 Chronic Stress, Racism, and Long-Term Health 37:13 What to Say When Bias Happens 42:51 Why Every Family Must Talk About Race 47:18 You Will Mess Up, And That's Okay Our podcasts are also now on YouTube.

One of the unmistakable throughlines of the second Trump administration is how it's overhauling policies that directly affect African Americans, most notably by targeting programs and initiatives that promote diversity, equity, and inclusion, or DEI. For journalist Nikole Hannah-Jones, it's an attempt to take the country back to an era before the civil rights movement. “A lot of folks are saying, you know, that this administration is rolling back the '60s, but I'm like, he—this administration's actually going back further than that.” The administration is also removing references to Black history from the nation's museums, parks, and schools. When history itself is being erased at the highest levels, who's left to tell us where we've been and where we're headed? This week on Reveal, as part of Black History Month, we're bringing you conversations from our sister podcast, More To The Story, with three prominent Black writers who are fighting to tell a more inclusive American story.

1. White House Event & Grandmother’s Testimony A Washington, D.C. grandmother who lost her grandson in 2017 praised Donald Trump during a Black History Month event. She credited his administration for focusing on crime reduction and supporting her advocacy after her grandson’s murder. She expressed frustration with previous local responses and argued for harsher sentencing. The mainstream media is intentionally avoided showing this White House moment because it is portraying Trump positively. 2. Kash Patel's Earlier Statements (From White House Remarks) Kash Patel emphasized the FBI was “following the money” to combat violent groups, including Antifa. He described Antifa as part of organized criminal activity and domestic terrorism. Patel credited Trump and DOJ leadership for enabling aggressive investigations. He claimed the FBI was mapping financial networks tied to criminal conduct. Patel states investigators have now uncovered major Antifa funding streams. He discussed ongoing financial investigations into demonstrations linked to Antifa. He suggested details about donors and organizations might be released later. 3. Arrests and Prosecutions Mentioned Patel cites: Over two dozen federal arrests related to “Portland”-type events. Nineteen convictions for violent acts linked to Antifa. A Texas federal trial involving nine defendants accused of attacking ICE personnel. A 2023 Georgia case tied to the “Cop City” protests. 4. Funding Investigations The FBI is examining whether Antifa-related funding: Flows through U.S.-based nonprofit groups. Potentially involves foreign sources. May include tax‑exempt organizations. Patel stresses the focus is strictly on violence-related support, not peaceful protest. 5. Organizational Discussions Although Antifa is widely described as decentralized, Patel says the FBI sees signs of structure such as: Conferences Local chapters National networking He contrasts this with past officials who described Antifa as merely an “idea.” 6. Internal FBI Actions Patel says the FBI created a dedicated program to track financial backing of violent activity tied to Antifa. He describes using counterterrorism-style financial tracing techniques. Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.

Meet my friends, Clay Travis and Buck Sexton! If you love Verdict, the Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show might also be in your audio wheelhouse. Politics, news analysis, and some pop culture and comedy thrown in too. Here’s a sample episode recapping four takeaways. Give the guys a listen and then follow and subscribe wherever you get your podcasts. Are We Going to Strike Iran? In‑depth foreign policy analysis featuring Steve Yates, senior fellow at the Heritage Foundation and former White House national security official, who breaks down the intensifying risk of U.S. military strikes against Iran. Yates outlines how the administration is negotiating over Iran’s nuclear program even as it positions F‑35s, F‑22s, and other assets for what he describes as a “high likelihood” of targeted military action within the next two weeks. He explains that any strike would be aimed at degrading Iran’s nuclear and ballistic missile capabilities—not launching a full‑scale war—while regional powers aligned under the Abraham Accords weigh their own interests in the potential collapse of the Iranian regime. The conversation then turns to the complex geopolitical landscape involving Iran, Venezuela, and Cuba, where Yates argues that the U.S. is using “smart power”—economic, political, and strategic pressure—to create conditions for gradual regime transformation without repeating the mistakes of Iraq. Clay and Buck press Yates on possible successors inside Iran, the role of the Iranian diaspora, and whether Gulf nations secretly prefer the current Ayatollah in power as a known, contained adversary. This leads into a moment of levity as they mock Rep. Alexandria Ocasio‑Cortez’s widely panned appearance at the Munich Security Conference, where she struggled to answer a basic question about China–Taiwan tensions. Yates jokes that even a quick AI search would have prepared her better. Dirty Dem Playbook The James Talarico–Stephen Colbert controversy, which Clay and Buck argue has massively backfired on Democrats. They trace how CBS refused to air the Talarico interview over potential FCC equal‑time violations involving Texas Senate candidate Jasmine Crockett, but the decision instead triggered a “Streisand Effect”, catapulting Talarico to viral fame. CNN’s election data analyst Harry Enten confirms that Google searches for Talarico skyrocketed nationally and especially in Texas—over 1,100%—dramatically shifting prediction markets toward him in the upcoming Democratic primary. Clay argues that the real political victim is Jasmine Crockett, likening the situation to the Democratic Party “rigging” the 2016 primary against Bernie Sanders. The Trans Trend Karol Markowicz, co‑host in the Clay & Buck Podcast Network, who joins to analyze two high‑profile transgender‑related family mass murders—one in British Columbia and one in Rhode Island. The hosts argue that political activism and online rhetoric have normalized delusional thinking while discouraging honest discussions about mental health. Markowicz highlights the sudden spike in youth identifying as transgender as a “social contagion,” noting huge differences in rates between states like New York and Florida. The segment also covers a groundbreaking legal development: NYU Langone halting gender-transition procedures for minors amid growing malpractice lawsuits, including a recent multimillion‑dollar jury award to a detransitioner. The show then pivots to cultural commentary, including Markowicz's evaluation of Taylor Swift’s cultural power, where she agrees that Swift is comparable in scale to global icons like the Beatles and Madonna. Clay and Buck debate Swift’s influence across generations and joke about Clay’s much‑discussed mustache. The hosts also highlight uplifting Olympic news as Team USA men’s hockey star Quinn Hughes goes viral for calling America “the greatest country in the world” after scoring a sudden‑death goal over Sweden—one of the few unapologetically patriotic moments they say mainstream media rarely promotes anymore. Pro-Trump Granny Clay and Buck spotlight a powerful moment from President Trump’s Black History Month event at the White House, where an impassioned grandmother, Floresia Cook, went viral for defending Trump’s record on crime and public safety. They note Trump’s warm statements about Jesse Jackson following his passing. The hosts wrap with an economic update: 30‑year mortgage rates have hit a four‑year low, edging just above 6%, which they say may begin to thaw the frozen housing market locked up by years of Biden‑era inflation. They end on a light note about a typo discovered in Buck’s bestselling book Manufacturing Delusion.
