In this series, Jeff and Andy look at historical events that took place on this day.Today in history, the greatest Quarterback that will never get into the Hall of Fame was born, the Man in Black passes away, and America's most popular show for the time makes its debut.This series is brought to you by the great Boss Shot Shells.

Today's Headlines: The FBI is in Utah chasing down leads in the Charlie Kirk assassination, releasing video of the suspected gunman's escape and offering $100K for tips. Meanwhile, Trump plans to award Kirk the Medal of Freedom, VP JD Vance escorted his casket, and MAGA lawmakers are pushing for a Capitol statue. Security scares piled on, too—Capitol Police cleared a bomb threat at DNC HQ and multiple HBCUs went into lockdown after threats, all later deemed not credible. Bloomberg dropped 18,000 Epstein emails showing his tight post-conviction ties with Ghislaine Maxwell, plus a spreadsheet of $1.8M in gifts and payments. Across the pond, Britain's ambassador to the U.S. got fired after Epstein's “birthday book” and emails revealed his buddy-buddy relationship with the disgraced financier. On the economy, grocery inflation hit the highest since 2022—coffee up 20%, beef up 16%, even bananas pricier—thanks in part to tariffs. And abroad, Brazil's ex-president Jair Bolsonaro was convicted of plotting a coup, including assassinations of Lula da Silva and others, and sentenced to 27 years. Unsurprisingly, he's crying “witch hunt” as his supporters riot.

Trigger Warning: This episode discusses political violence and the tragic assassination of Charlie Kirk. Please listen with care, as some details may be disturbing. In this deeply reflective episode of Life Points with Ronda, we examine the shocking events at Utah Valley University where Charlie Kirk was gunned down during an outdoor event. From the immediate chaos under the tent to the national and international fallout, we unpack how this moment forces America to confront the dangers of political violence. As a Black woman, I share my perspective on the contradictions between Kirk's words in life and the empathy shown after his death. We explore media framing, societal polarization, community responses, and the broader lessons about safety, democracy, and healing in a time of profound division. This is not an episode about politics — it is about humanity, loss, and the urgent need for unity in a fractured nation. Stay connected with me:

Those standing up to climate and environmental injustice face challenges they weren't seeing a year ago. But Gloria Walton, head of The Solutions Project, sees a bigger picture: "The reality is that the same systems that created the climate crisis, whether that's colonialism, white supremacy, racism, and the patriarchy, those are the same ones that have harmed communities of color for generations,” she says. Her organization has channeled tens of millions of philanthropic dollars to grassroots efforts that build community resilience.  Black Girl Environmentalist founder Wawa Gatheru is helping more Black girls, women, and gender-expansive people enter and lead in the climate space. She says the climate fight has shifted from education to action, with over 70% of Americans now understanding that climate change is real. So what should this 'action phase' look like?

What if freedom isn't something we chase… but something we remember? In this episode, host Crystle Johnson sits down with Najma Ahmed, creator of the Free Black Girl podcast, to explore what it really means to be free. From leaving her "dream job" to breaking generational patterns and embracing radically soft living, Najma shares her powerful story of transformation, healing, and reclaiming joy. ✨ Topics we explore: What keeps Black women from living freely?

On today’s episode of The Rickey Smiley Morning Show Podcast, the crew tackled breaking news, Hollywood rumors, real-talk about intimacy, and major updates in the Charlie Kirk shooting case. The RSMS crew digs into a string of terroristic threats that forced lockdowns and class cancellations at multiple historically Black colleges and universities (HBCUs) across the U.S. Institutions such as Alabama State, Hampton, Virginia State, Southern, Bethune-Cookman, Spelman, Clark Atlanta, and Morehouse were affected. Although no credible threat has been confirmed, the timing—shortly after Charlie Kirk’s shooting—has many students and administrators on edge, with heightened security in place. Rickey and the crew sat down with a sex and intimacy therapist, who broke down how open communication, honesty, and vulnerability can deepen relationships and help couples keep the spark alive. And during the last hour, the crew revealed that a suspect in the fatal shooting of conservative activist Charlie Kirk is now in custody. The suspect has been identified as 22-year-old Tyler Robinson of Utah, arrested after a tip from someone close to him, according to Utah law enforcement. Authorities say Robinson acted alone, and there are indications in messages and bullet engravings that the shooting was politically motivated.

As we gather here on this somber day, it's impossible to ignore the festering rot at the heart of the Left—a group of vile human beings whose core is steeped in violence, hatred, and a relentless drive to tear down everything good in this world. They've shown time and again that they're not just opposed to conservative values; they're willing to celebrate death, incite chaos, and protect the monsters among us, all while pretending to champion justice. This main arc of leftist depravity sets the stage for our first segment, where we delve into the personal toll it takes, starting with my own mourning over the shocking assassination of Charlie Kirk. See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

It's not gun violence, it's Leftist violence. We really need to reinforce this FACT. Leftist don't care how they kill us. If they could round us up and gas us, they would. Our most violent rhetoric is to give them a land of their own and forbid them from visiting us.On that note, I want to discuss the conservative utopia. And how we must win the culture war.We have financed the war against us, giving our money to Hollywood, and to the entertainment industry.We allowed the government to co-opt education, and now they own it. It's infiltrated with communists. See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Charlie Kirk is dead—taken out by an extremely skilled sniper in deep-red Utah. The MAGA Nazi built an empire scapegoating Black people, trans folks, and women, and cheered on Trump's authoritarian destruction. Get ready for the martyrdom of this incel king and the coming retribution against democracy defenders. Let's look at what really happened. Back in July, Kirk had demanded transparency from the Trump White House over Trump's longtime friend: the pedophile Jeffrey Epstein who ran the real life QAnon–we play Kirk's own words at the end of this episode. Instead, Trump turned the FBI and DOJ into personal security forces, relying on them and Mike Johnson in Congress to continue his Epstein cover-up. Now Kirk's dead. And the shooter? Nowhere to be found. The killer obviously blended in with the predominantly white and male crowd. Was he a professional sniper? Was this a Russian op, or another case of terrorism by an active duty soldier? Kirk's death looks less like a random act and more like a message: Shut up about Epstein. And it's working. Trump is already using Kirk's murder to stir up his base, threatening political opponents, and fueling his full-blown authoritarian crusade. But don't be fooled—this isn't about “leftist violence.” The data is clear: political violence in America overwhelmingly comes from the far right. Refuse to be silenced. Demand the full Epstein files. Demand justice for the victims. Because the real danger to MAGA isn't those who enjoy what's left of their Constitutionally protected rights—it's the MAGA base waking up to the truth: Trump is at the center of the Epstein cover-up, because he, like Epstein, is a pedophile. Release the Epstein files.   Show Notes:   First-of-its-kind Look at Left, Right, and Islamist Extremists Explores Similarities, Differences. According to the University of Maryland's Department of Criminology and Criminal Justice: Far-right extremist violence is significantly worse than far-left violence – there's no comparison. The data shows that American society should take right-wing violence far more seriously, like it takes Islamist extremism. Anyone both-sidesing political violence in America is gaslighting you. https://ccjs.umd.edu/feature/umd-led-study-shows-disparities-violence-among-extremist-groups   Top Democrat Calls for Congressional Probe Into Ties Between Jeffrey Epstein and Peter Thiel: Thiel was one of many whose financial ties to the dead financier should be probed, a prominent senator believes. https://gizmodo.com/democrats-call-for-congressional-probe-into-ties-between-jeffrey-epstein-and-peter-thiel-2000657058   Charlie Kirk talks Epstein, urges Trump administration to act https://www.axios.com/2025/07/15/trump-epstein-maga-charlie-kirk   Zero Fail: The Rise and Fall of the Secret Service by Carol Leonnig https://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/543941/zero-fail-by-carol-leonnig/   See Epstein's full ‘birthday book,' with alleged personal messages from Trump, Clinton and others https://www.pbs.org/newshour/nation/see-epsteins-full-birthday-book-with-alleged-personal-messages-from-trump-clinton-and-others   House Oversight receives Epstein estate files, including 'birthday book' : Democrats have posted a photo of the provocative message the president allegedly wrote. https://www.politico.com/news/2025/09/08/house-oversight-receives-epstein-estate-files-00550721   MSNBC: Witness Describes Charlie Kirk Shooting: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DGxsn3FNJsU   Nazi Martyr Horst Wessel: Beware the mobilizing martyrdom by American fascists https://www.bettedangerous.com/p/nazi-martyr-horst-wessel?fbclid=IwY2xjawMvxm5leHRuA2FlbQIxMQABHjDVF7jdpNZA03IKR09k7rR2GPT50u9UjV2glvSRXDMzCsGlk1_7BXB7FH_C_aem_U-EXiDdVgWMAOfMMny3OYA   U.S. Military Service is the Strongest Predictor of Carrying Out Extremist Violence https://theintercept.com/2025/01/02/military-veterans-extremism-attack-new-orleans-vegas/  

Today's tough-on-crime laws couldn't hold a candle back in the day. As soon as enslavement ended, the foolishness started.

These women harnessed the power of the axle, pushing their crafts and professions forward through their works and lives. History classes can get a bad rap, and sometimes for good reason.

On this Wonder Media Network podcast we explore the lives of inspiring women in history you may not know about, but definitely should. Every weekday, listeners explore the trials, tragedies, and triumphs of groundbreaking women throughout history who have dramatically shaped the world around us. In each 5 minute episode, we’ll dive into the story behind one woman listeners may or may not know–but definitely should. These diverse women from across space and time are grouped into easily accessible and engaging monthly themes like Educators, Villains, Indigenous Storytellers, Activists, and many more. Womanica is hosted by WMN co-founder and award-winning journalist Jenny Kaplan. The bite-sized episodes pack painstakingly researched content into fun, entertaining, and addictive daily adventures.

NFL Hall of Famer Warren Moon joins Jimmy to talk about his remarkable path from being overlooked by NFL teams to winning five straight Grey Cups in Canada and eventually starring for the Houston Oilers. He shares why he chose the CFL out of college, what it meant to become a trailblazing Black quarterback in the NFL, and the pride of being enshrined in both the Canadian and Pro Football Halls of Fame.Warren and Jimmy dig into leadership and longevity: the mindset that carried him through 23 seasons, how he led locker rooms without the “rah-rah,” and why ownership–coach–QB alignment matters most. They revisit the infamous Bills comeback, the grind of short-week Thursday games, old-school Astrodome turf burns, and how today's rules, 17- (soon 18-) game schedules, fantasy, and betting have reshaped football. You'll also hear fun throwbacks—Tecmo Super Bowl rockets, an NBA Jam cameo—and a candid look at player safety: concussions, CTE awareness, and the gear and practice changes Warren wishes existed in his era.00:00 Introduction02:00 Early days, CFL success, and making it to the NFL06:30 Breaking barriers as a Black quarterback & handling pressure10:30 Houston Oilers years, playoff battles, and leadership lessons15:30 Evolution of the NFL: rules, fantasy football, and betting20:00 Player safety, concussions, and the cost of the game23:00 Memorable moments, tough stadiums, and the Bills comeback26:42 Outro

Storm's comin', and it is quite literally "mucky out". Alasdair forecasts peculiar precipitation with spells of weird science. The black rains that fell on one small Scottish parish in the 1860s have a variety of explanations, ranging from the odd (squids) to the really odd (Italy). Plus, we have a doozy of a theory from the man himself: Charles Fort.

In Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, Humpty Dumpty scornfully declares that, “When I use a word, it means just what I choose it to mean.”So what does “woke” mean? It's become the pet political aspersion that today's kooky right-wing hucksters hurl at liberals, but the hurlers would be whopperjawed to learn that it's was actually coined by and for progressives! Indeed, it admonishes people to be awake to the dangers posed by hate-filled bigots and reactionaries like… well, like today's right-wing extremists.SURPRISING HISTORICAL TIDBIT: The first person reported to have used the word was Huddie Ledbetter, the legendary Black blues artist known as Lead Belly. Among his many classic songs was “Scottsboro Boys,” about nine Black teenagers falsely accused in 1931 of raping two Alabama white women. As a Black musician who traveled the backroads of the Jim Crow South, Lead Belly warned others to pay attention when in a viciously racist state: “Best stay woke,” he cautioned.But—out of blind ignorance, blind arrogance, or both—today's adaptors of the Jim Crow mentality have perverted common-sense wokeness into a verbal whip to lash African-Americans, immigrants, Democrats, women, LGBTQ+ people and all others they don't like (pretty much everyone who looks, thinks, prays and acts different from them). How kooky? They've declared librarians, science, Mickey Mouse, and Bud Light to be their evil enemies. “Don't be woke,” they bark, demanding autocratic, plutocratic, and theocratic laws to coerce compliance with their own retrogressive bigotries.This is Jim Hightower saying… Bear in mind that this is no longer a fringe cult, but the mainstream of the Republican Party, including its top congressional leaders, presidential wannabes, and state officials. Actually, you can easily comprehend what these Humpty-Dumpties really mean by their “Don't Be Woke” war cry. Just substitute the word “sane” for “woke.”Jim Hightower's Lowdown is a reader-supported publication. To receive new posts and support my work, consider becoming a free or paid subscriber.

In this conversation with host Melissa L. Jones, Julius shares his journey of embracing his family's legacy, raising awareness about the decline of Black cotton farmers, and inspiring future generations through culture, innovation, and a deep connection to the land.

This pattern: leftists pay for violence via unions, BLM riots (billions in damage), Antifa street brawls. They point at MAGA, but we've harmed nobody. Recall DC streets pre-Trump: chaos from leftist protests. Ashli Babbitt, unarmed, shot by a cop—no charges. Justice? Conservatives are ostracized, the majority hunted by a deranged minority of haters.

Yesterday at Utah Valley University, during a "Prove Me Wrong" event, Charlie was engaging students when a suspect fired from the Losee Center. Witnesses saw Charlie recoil, blood pouring from his neck. I wish I hadn't seen the video, as that is not the way I want to remember my friend, as he was assassinated by some crazy Leftists. Charlie was gracious, building TPUSA from student activism to embracing Black communities and faith. He poured himself into truth-seeking, leading him to God. We started our organizations around the same time; I counseled him on direction, shared donors and friends. We planned events together, but after I was fired from Fox, I bowed out.

“The goal is freedom. The goal is your own happiness. The goal is joy, and it's hard to have as much joy and lightness as you can if you're holding onto old resentments.” Simbi Hall, Storyteller, Screenwriter, Director, and Producer, sits down with Hoffman Podcast host Sadie Hannah to share her life journey of healing. While Simbi completed the Process in 2022, her journey of self-reflection began at the age of seven, when she had her own subscription to Psychology Today. From a young age, she tried to analyze things in her head and figure things out. Somewhere within her, she felt there was something she needed to address. For Simbi, one of the main transformations at the Process was the shift in her relationship with her father. Raised by her mom, her nana (technically her step-great-grandmother), and a dog “who helped raise” her, her father was absent. Simbi felt abandoned by him. She could count on her hands the number of times she's seen him in her life. As Simbi says, you idealize what you don't have. She grew to resent him and what she could never have. It's been “the homework of her life” to attempt to resolve the pain of her childhood. Her birthday is always right around Father's Day. Each year, this has been a big trigger for Simbi. This past year, just a few years after doing the Process, Simbi had a very different birthday experience. She discovered that she had let go of her deep resentment toward her father. Listen in as Simbi shares wisdom learned from doing the homework of a lifetime. Be sure to listen for Simbi's mic-drop moment at the end. More about Simbi Hall: Simbiat Hall is an award-winning Nigerian-American filmmaker who divides her time between LA and NYC. Born in Chicago and raised in Virginia, Simbi graduated from New York University's Tisch School of the Arts with a double major in film and dramatic writing. She is also a graduate of AFI's “Directing Workshop for Women” and the Bill Cosby-sponsored “Guy Hanks/Marvin Miller Screenwriting Fellowship at USC. Simbi is well-known for Long Story Short (2004), Bring It! Vegas Dreams and Disney Parks' Magical Christmas Celebration (2016). Follow Simbi on Instagram at @simbihall.

This is the foundation from which growth can evolve. The Divine Mother Positive Legacy: While much of the work of the Hoffman Process involves disconnecting from negative parental patterns, we also receive a positive legacy from our parents. This is also addressed during the 7-day retreat. Black woman tropes/stereotypes – What is Transference? A couple of great quotes from Simbi: “If you're open and seeking, you can get guidance from a stop sign.” “If you don't do the work, life adds Miracle-Gro to the belief systems.”
