Paul Rieckhoff is on the courthouse steps in Foley Square, filing suit against the state of New York. The question in front of the court is as old as the republic and as urgent as this news cycle: does the right to vote derive from citizenship, or from joining a political party? In New York, 25.4% of the electorate — 3.1 million voters — is shut out of the primaries that actually decide most elections. Public schools. Public workers. Public machines. Private party gatekeeping. It is unfair, un-American, and the plaintiffs argue, unconstitutional. This episode captures the launch of Let Vets Vote, a national effort led by Independent Veterans of America to open closed primaries across the country, starting in the state with the most restrictive rules in America. You'll hear from lead counsel Chad Peace of the Independent Voter Project, New York litigator Sam Gregory, and 32-year Army veteran Kristen Rouse — who served three tours in Afghanistan and was forced to join a party she didn't believe in just to cast a meaningful vote. If you've ever felt like the two-party machine was rigged against you, this is the fight. And it's just getting started. -WATCH full video of this episode here. -Let Vets Vote: Millions of American veterans are being locked out of primary elections in the country they served.

What happens when readers get REALLY into a book? Sometimes… everyone starts reading it.  In this episode of Book Lounge by Libby, host Joe Skelley is joined by authors whose books found huge audiences through book clubs, BookTok, Bookstagram and online reading communities. We're talking about the very real power of readers to turn a great book into a full-blown phenomenon and what it's like for an author to watch that happen.  How does a book become the one everyone is recommending? Why do some stories take off in book clubs? And what makes readers want to pass a book along to everyone they know?  Plus, we're getting into the joy, chaos and occasionally unhinged energy of being part of a reading community.  Whether you're a lifelong book club member, a solo reader who lives in the group chat or someone who has ever said “I HAVE to make you read this,” this one is for you.  If you're part of a book club, tell us about it! How big is your group? How often do you meet? What's the best book you've ever read together? And, perhaps most importantly, what's the book that nearly started a civil war?  Listen or watch now, and join the conversation with Book Lounge by Libby.  Looking for the video version of our show?

AI can help you research a franchise. But what happens when you bring its questions to a franchisor without understanding why you're asking them?   In this solo episode of Franchise Secrets, Erik Van Horn explains how AI generated questions can create tension during due diligence, why an AI review of a Franchise Disclosure Document needs context, and how treating ChatGPT or Claude like a franchise attorney can derail a deal. He shares a better approach: use AI to learn, challenge its answers, have honest conversations with the brand, and work with a franchise attorney to understand what you're signing.   Erik also discusses the value of creating the right professional connections and shares a practical way he uses AI to build an event playbook for his business.   Chapters: 00:00 – The mistake franchise buyers make with AI 00:55 – Why the right room matters in franchising 03:24 – Making connections that help others grow 06:16 – Creating your own room of decision makers 08:33 – How franchise buyers are using AI 10:43 – The danger of being confidently wrong 14:21 – Why AI generated questions create tension 16:08 – Use AI to become a better informed buyer 19:40 – What happens when you put an FDD into AI 23:19 – Understand the agreement before negotiating 26:08 – Why AI shouldn't act as your franchise attorney 27:24 – AI as an educator versus an advisor 29:25 – Building business playbooks with AI   Connect with Erik Van Horn:

Have you ever looked at a project you've poured years of your life into and realized… it's fine? Not catastrophic. Not terrible. Just fine.No one wants to read a book that's fine — and I am certain you don't want to write one.The first step in making sure you do better than fine is to catch yourself when you know you've hit a wall — which is way easier said than done.We get so used to plowing ahead, getting the words down, prioritizing FINISHING that we often forget to stop and make sure we are writing what we really want to be writing. Think of that pause like checking in with your gut or your heart: do you love this?Because if you don't love it, your readers aren't going to love it, either.In this Write Big episode, KJ and I sit down for an honest, behind-the-scenes look at what happens when you hit a wall—and decide to set off a stick of dynamite instead of trying to climb over it. Both of us recently threw out huge portions of our current projects (my Write Big book, and KJ's novel) to start fresh from page zero.I share the story of my 12-hour wrestling match with ChatGPT over the books subtitle (yeah — 12 hours on the subtitle), the “tough love” reality check I got from #amwriting recurring guest therapist Dr. Diana Hill, and how answering one simple question—are you actually centering your reader?—changed everything about my book's tone, structure, and voice. Meanwhile, KJ opens up about why she threw out her protagonist, embraced a dual-timeline structure, and ignored the well-meaning advice of friends who told her NOT to keep starting over.We talk about:* How to recognize when a book is polite or timid instead of alive.* The difference between an echo chamber (which AI can sometimes be) and a true truth-teller.* A method for salvaging the gold from an abandoned draft without getting bogged down by old words.* Why starting over isn't “falling behind”—it's standing up for your conviction.If you're feeling stuck, lost, or secretely suspecting your current draft needs a radical pivot, we encourage you stop playing it safe and build something alive.Let's get back to work and finish work we LOVE.#AmWriting is a reader-supported publication.

Evans's The CorrespondentTranscriptJennie: [00:00:00] Hi, I'm Jennie Nash, and you're listening to the #amwriting podcast, the place where we help writers of all kinds play big in your writing life, love the process, and stick with it long enough to finish what matters most. This is a Write Big episode, where I bring you short conversations, this one might not be so short, about the mindset shifts that shape the work, and today I'm talking to KJ.Jennie: Hi, KJ.KJ: I'm so excited to be here. This is... Uh, you know. I'll be here lots. This is great. Uh, the, the behind-the-scenes stuff- Is the behind the scenes stuff? KJJennie: often-KJ: And here we are just to like, you know, having a nice normal, um, a podcast, soJennie: yeah. I know. I'm so excited to talk to you and to share this conversation with our listeners, and we're talking aboutJennie: So we're talking about the mindset shifts that shape the work. That's what Write Big is all about, and [00:01:00] oof, some big ones just happened for us both. Yep. Um, if you've been listening for a while, you know we're both working on projects. They're very different projects. Um, KJ's is a novel, mine is a nonfiction book, and I just m- literally dropped a bomb on mine and totally blew it up and started in a new direction, and this is years into it, and you recently did that too, and you- I didKJ: something very similarJennie: you were shy about sharing it with me, which I thought was funny. Um- Oh. ‘Cause you were like- Yeah ... “She's not in the book anymore.” I was asking her aboutKJ: something. That's right. You're like, “Oh, and this could be s- “ I, I mentioned something, and I was like, “Oh, yeah.” Yeah,Jennie: I just mentioned changes. That was when we were in person.Jennie: We, KJ and I were in person, and you know what? We didn't take a picture.KJ: Oh my God, we didn't. You're right. Oh, well.Jennie: We both tra- We have aKJ: lot of things. Travel It just means we have to do it again [00:02:00] soon.Jennie: We both traveled great distances in order to have lunch and go shopping and talk about books, and we were walking and chatting about KJ's book, and, and that's when I learned she had blown everything up.Jennie: So how areKJ: you- We both blew things up. So I got questions. I'm sure you have questions. I have. My first question- Yeah ... you just did this, so how did you know you had to do this?Jennie: Yeah, I did it yesterday.KJ: I think that's ... I know. I think that's the thing that people wanna know, like, “How did you, how did you know?”KJ: Okay. “Was it gradual? Was it sudden?” Just-Jennie: Yeah ...KJ: you know, j- tell, tell us how we should know if we should do the same thing, which I already did, and I have an answer to this too, so.Jennie: Yeah, yeah.KJ: How didJennie: you know? So I was ... I had a finished manuscript, and I asked two people to read it for very particular reasons, these beta reas- readers, and they, neither of them were people that I would callJennie: They're not the kinda typical people that I would go to. [00:03:00] They were, they were more, um, regular readers, if that makes sense. They're, they're not insidery people like you. I mean, you and I- Me ... have a lot of insidery, inside the industry people. These were not those people. So I had a full manuscript. I took it out to both of them.Jennie: I got feedback from both of them, and the, the first, the first person's feedback was- Fine? It was, it was fine. It was like, “This is fine. I want more of this or that.” And it was, it was kind of like, not-KJ: Fine, huh? Great ...Jennie: not what anybody wants. Fine. I either want my reader to be like, “Oh, hell yes,” or, “I co- totally don't get it.”Jennie: Like, I want, I don't want fine. So that was the first thing, and then the second reader [00:04:00] said, “I ha- I got some tough love for you.” And this was happened after I was really struggling. I was trying to rewrite while they were doing the beta read, and, you know, f- with my own critique and my own next steps and my own thing, and I found myself unable to go forward because of the title.Jennie: I kept changing my mind on the title. Like, what really is this? And what, it's particularly the subtitle. What, what am I doing? Like, after all this time, after all this time, after a million blueprints, a million conversations, a whole manuscript, I'm still asking myself, “What is the point? Who is this for?Jennie: What am I doing?” And I, when I say that I was wrestling with that, I felt that I couldn't revise until I got it right because I, the revision now is very [00:05:00] specific. It's not let's just get some words down.KJ: Mm-hmm.Jennie: And so I think I spent, I mean, I'm not even exaggerating- 12 hours? I'm not kidding. Playing- No,KJ: I, I believe-Jennie: Playing with my title.Jennie: And-KJ: And you kept sending me things, and I'd be like, “Eh.”Jennie: Yeah, you were like, “Meh.” I was playing in Chat GPT- I was super helpful ... and the reason that I spent so much time was it was really fun. It was, it was like, “Well, what about this? Well, what about the other? I don't like that word.” Like I was fighting with the machine, which I sort of enjoyed, and, and it was, it wasJennie: It says, you know, it says ridiculous things all the time. “This is your most original idea.” I'm like, “Blah.” You know? Yeah. Just I was kind of wanting to- Yeah, you,KJ: you, you can't listen to it. No. You can only listen to what it's making you say.Jennie: I was wrestling with my own mind. Yeah. That's what I was doing.Jennie: Mm-hmm. And, and I would land on something, and I would think this, and I would start [00:06:00] to revise, and I'd think, “Yeah,” and then I'd send it to you. And you'd be, yeah, you'd be like, “I don't like it,” or, “I don't get it,” or, “Meh,” or, “No,” or whatever. And I was getting mad, not at you, but at my own self. Like, what is the matter here?Jennie: And if you've listened to the podcast, you heard some big revelation episodes with Andrew Perella, who's working on his novel, where you have to step back from the wrestling to say, “Why am I wrestling so much with this? There's something else going on here,” right? Mm-hmm. So that was kind of what was happening, and then the second beta reader- Uh, who is, has been on the podcast several times as well and, and will be in the future.Jennie: It's therapist Diana. So therapist Diana often comes on to help us with some psychological things around writing. And- AndKJ: she has a book.Jennie: She does. She has actually three. So she was the one [00:07:00] who said, “I got some tough love for you.” And she said, “Why don't you come over, and we'll sit down, and I'll, I'll tell it to you.”Jennie: And so part of me was doing that thing that you do is, where it was like, “Oh, crap, I still have so much work to do, and, and I'm tired of this, and I don't wanna.” And, you know, so I went into it with that sort of whiny, resistant attitude. And for, like, the first hour when she was talking to me, I had that really defensive thing of like, “You don't get me.Jennie: You don't get, you don't get what I'm doing. You don't, you're not, you're not in my world.” Like, I was really resistant. And then she did the coolest thing because she's a, a therapist and a writer and all the things. She used my own system on me, and she was like, [00:08:00] “Okay, step one is why are you doing this?” And she said, “I want...Jennie: I'm gonna ask you,” I think she said, “15 times, ‘Why are you doing this?'” And we, we were walking, and so she was just go saying, “Why are you doing this?” And I was just spouting out all the things. And I got to about, I don't know, eight, nine, and she goes, “Okay.” None of these are about the reader. These are all about you and what you want.Jennie: And, and none of these are about what you're actually making. Is this book... Are you trying to help your readers with what you're trying to do with this book? Like, are they in the same place you are? And I s- I had this really strong reaction, and I said, “No. What I'm struggling with around this book is, is a different problem from, from my r- my [00:09:00] reader.Jennie: I want to meet them here.” And I, and I said where I want to meet them, and what I want, how I wanted to help them, and why it was so hard to deliver that. And she was taking notes on her phone while we were walking, and then, uh, she read them back to me, and, and it was like, oh yeah, that's the book I want to write.Jennie: That, that's the book I want to write. Like, I, I knew it, I just wasn't doing it. And it was, um, a whole different structure, a whole different attitude, a whole different voice and tone. And, and it really required a page zero start. So I... This was what was really cool. I, um, did not use ChatGPT. I wrote a new subtitle.Jennie: I guess I did use it, ‘cause I was wrestling with one word. I guess I did use it for this one [00:10:00] word. Um-KJ: It's, it can be a really great thesaurus.Jennie: Yeah, yeah. And, and I sent it to you, and you said, I'm gonna keep this text for the rest of my life. You said, “I've already pre-ordered it.”KJ: Yeah.Jennie: I mean- YouKJ: got itJennie: It actually-KJ: I mean, you know, you might change a word or something, but, but no, that one was like, oh, oh, yeah, yeah.KJ: Okay.Jennie: Yeah. It made me wanna cry. Aw. And then I re- I wrote a new intro, totally new from scratch, which is where I had been stuck before, just like even what is this? And I, I wrote it in, like, 15 minutes, and I sent it to Diana, therapist Diana, and, um, she said, her text reply was, “F*****g awesome.”KJ: Yay.Jennie: And I was like, okay, okay.Jennie: [00:11:00] Like, two people I trust.KJ: She didn't say, “Fine.”Jennie: Right? Two people I trust had that reaction, and when I... I wish I could find the text. Maybe I can find the text. Because when I sent it to her, this was what was so great. I do wanna find this. I'm scrolling through my texts now while we're talking, because I said, um- New intro, just three pages.Jennie: Will you read? This is it, period. I hardly even need to ask you because I know it's it. Like, I, it wasn't looking for confirmation or validation. I kind of just wanted her to see. But I, I felt it was it. I knew it was it. And then I started... I can't stop writing now. Like, I'd been so stuck, and I can't stop writing.Jennie: I'm so fired up. I'm so excited. It feels alive and amazing. Um, it feels like butter on toast. Like, it's just [00:12:00] smooth and easy, and I get it, and I, I, I've clicked in, and it, and it... This has come after, like, I tried to sell this book. You know? I mean, I went through that whole process and, and it didn't. And now I'm so delighted that it didn't sell, that I'm not writing that other book, that, that I get to write- YesJennie: this book. And it's, like, such a pain in the butt really because, you know, I wanted it to be done, and I wanted it to be over- ... and I wanted to be close. And I thought I was there. Um, I had all these plans, you know, for launching and making it happen and blah, blah, blah. And it's like, oh gosh, now I'm like six months or a year behind.Jennie: I'm using air quotes. Like, behind what? I don't know. I mean, if I'm perfectly honest, there, there's a colleague who has a book coming out in 2027 that I'm [00:13:00] twitchy about, and I sort of wanted to beat it. And- ... it was never gonna happen. And also, like, what is that even? What is that even? So I, yeah, I feel amazing.KJ: This is great.Jennie: Yeah. Yeah. I, I feel amazing.KJ: That's, that's fantastic. Yeah.Jennie: I, I just love it. I'm so grateful for, um, you know, the people that I have who are truth tellers, which is, you're one of them. And youKJ: know- It is hard to find a truth teller. And I pick up so many books now, some of them by, you know, very well-known authors, and I'm like, there, there was no truth teller- RightKJ: for this person. And- I mean, I, I, yeah. You know, sometimes it's just like, “Well, this could've been better,” but the- I've had a couple where I was like, “Wow, damn.” Like, I would've, I would... [00:14:00] Even though I don't know you very well, if you'd given this to me in time, I would've stopped you, but-Jennie: Well, I think sometimes the more famous people get, the, the less often- I think soJennie: people will tell them the truth, and- Mm-hmm ... you have to seek that o- out your own self. And, y- you know, I'm so lucky that I have s- have, I mean, so lucky. You know, you, you're not gonna let me get away with crap, and I don't wanna put crap out there. Like, what I had was fine. ItKJ: wasn't crap. It was fine. ItJennie: was fine.KJ: Mm-hmm. But- And some of it was great, was, like, inspirational, really. Helped me, and had lot... But you couldn't, you just couldn't nail that the subtitle was the point.Jennie: Yep. It's so true. Yeah,KJ: and you just couldn't, you just kept sending me, like, “Ugh.”Jennie: I know.KJ: You know? Like, like, “Oh, this is a book about...” You know, I was like, eh, just like, you know-Jennie: This is a writing bookKJ: boring thing, boring thing, colon, [00:15:00] boring thing. And it was- I know ... or, you know, like, like, “Meh thing, unexciting, dash-” “... probably okay.” I don't know. It's, it's-Jennie: I know, and it, you know, this is in fact the whole write big process. I am going through the very thing I am teaching people to do. And- Mm-hmm When I, what I really understood finally is the reasonJennie: So one of the things, um, when Diana asked me, when she stopped me from saying all the reasons why I wanted to write this book and, and said none of these are about the reader, she understands about me that my whole career is about the reader. I, I train book coaches. I'm a book coach. I- it's what I do. And, and so she was e- then asked me to really define.Jennie: She was like, “When you're coaching someone and it's magic and it [00:16:00] just works and it's awesome, what are you doing?” And, and it was like, I'm not pulling any punches. I'm not, you know, a- and I, and I described to her an incident that just happened, and I can't say very much about it. But a very, very well-known performer was sent to me by an agent, somebody we would all know, with a book proposal that needed help.Jennie: And, and I read the proposal, and the word that was just like a neon sign flashing in my mind was timid. It just felt timid.KJ: Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm.Jennie: And everybody does this. Everybody shrinks to a certain extent from the thing that they know they can write, and it was like, wow, s- super famous performer who is connected to all the famous people, don't write a timid book.Jennie: Like, we don't, we don't want you to write a timid book. No. You don't want to write a timid book. And in what I do, so I, I got on the Zoom with them, and I said, [00:17:00] “This is timid. This is a timid book. You're shrinking from your authority.” And, you know, they were obviously taken aback. Um, but also then they ... It landed.Jennie: Like- Yes ... I, I see that. And that's what I do when I'm coaching someone. So, so why is that not in the book? Yeah. So the book has gotten much more confrontational, much more tough love, much, much less equivocating. It just feels- MuchKJ: less how to not do something.Jennie: Ugh. Like. It's so much more me, and I- YeahJennie: sometimes pretend like I'm a, a polite and kind and whatever, patient person. But the people that know me, you know, know I'm not actually like that, so. Anyway.KJ: And that would not be a helpful, I mean, that's not a helpful book coach.Jennie: That's right.KJ: You know, people may need that, but- For some people, give somebodyKJ: I don't, yeah. I mean, yeah. Some, sometimes. But by and large, if you give somebody [00:18:00] something and they're like, “This is great”-Jennie: Yeah.KJ: I, I mean, and maybe it's great. Yeah. It's probably not.Jennie: Yeah.KJ: You know, 99% of the time it's almost, or it's not even close, or it's ...Jennie: Yeah.KJ: Yeah.Jennie: So I've pulled off of my shelf some different books for inspiration than the ones I was using before.Jennie: Um, Austin Kleon has a really cool thing in his new book. Why can't I remember the title of his new book? It's quite hard to remember.KJ: I don't know. What does he want you to steal now?Jennie: I mean, steal, Steal Like an Artist is so memorable, and I can't remember the new, the new one. It's a good book, but he has this really cool image where he says, “Books are made of books,” and, and he has the cover of his new book with these inputs and the cover of, like, I don't know, maybe six or eight books that went into his [00:19:00] book.Jennie: You know, like the, that went through his mind to create his book, and it's really beautiful. LikeKJ: real books?Jennie: Yes.KJ: Like his cover is like if you put, I don't know, I'm look- reading titles from the back of you- you- you're behind ... Deep Work and Dare to Lead and Made to Stick, and, and you like- Yep ... fed them into a brain- YepKJ: and then it spat out your book?Jennie: Yep.KJ: Wow. Huh.Jennie: It's reallyKJ: cool. That's a, that's an interesting ...Jennie: Yeah, it'sKJ: bold.Jennie: That's really- It is bold, and it, but I do think it's, I do think it's real. And, and I had some books that were sort of ... What's weird is I wasn't reading them or studying them. I was almost like I would almost just touch them.Jennie: Like, these are the books I want my book to sit next to, to be like. And I've changed out the books that are, are that. I've pulled ... Like, I have this book that I love that is, um, by John Wooden, the basketball coach, about coaching basketball, and you know, it's about [00:20:00] coaching, and, and I've always loved that book, and I've loved how he was revered as a coach.Jennie: And you know, that, that book is now one that's informing me more. It would never be a comp title. This is a very different concept than a comp title, right? But, um, yeah, I just feel, I feel great. And, um- And folks who have been listening have heard me share some things where I've not been feeling great, and I've been feeling lost and confused, and, you know, shouldn't I know better?Jennie: I'm the coach of the coaches, and shouldn't I know better? This is my 13th book, and shouldn't I know better? And it's like, no, you always have to do the work. You just do.KJ: Well, and that's what I hope, you know, people who've been listening along to us for the years we've spent on these projects now take is, I mean, there are people who write great books really quickly.KJ: Typically, they are also people who are able to, uh, you [00:21:00] know, process and keep pots on the stove. And, you know, like Serena writes three to four books a year, and that's, uh, you know, a really hard person to have next to you at all times- Yeah, no kidding ... as I pretty much do. But I also can see that she's got pots boiling at all the time.KJ: She doesn't, you know, wake up on March 1st and say, “Okay, I wanna have a book by July 31st. What should it be about?” And, and that's not how it works for her. And, and so even though she is absolutely faster at producing quality work than, than I am, it's still, it's not that. You know, it's more like, “Okay, here's this thing that I set up before, and here's this thing that I spent, you know, a week plotting, and here's...KJ: And I'm gonna pull this, this toge- together,” and, you know, she gets stuck, but she, and she also, you know, she's full time all the time- Eh, not [00:22:00] doing, you know, that's what she does. That and promoting them. And incidentally, she had a book come out today. Uh-oh, you've gone silent for me.Jennie: Sorry, I was raving and saying she did.Jennie: Um, it was, it's called Big Stick Energy.KJ: Yeah.Jennie: And when this podcast airs, it will not have just come out today. It'll be-KJ: No, but, you know, as we talk ...Jennie: a few weeks ago. But yeah, yay Serena. Okay. Yeah. So do you have more questions for me?KJ: It was more that I just wanted to express that I, uh, felt similarly, but minus all the other people.KJ: Mm. It was a very, like I was really stewing in like, “I just can't- You know, I wanted to have, um, a, a, something that I was thinking about the whole time as I write. You know, I really wanted to know the, what the theme was and what the point was, and I just wanted to know why. Why was I doing this? And every day I would like sort of wake up [00:23:00] and, and stew more on that, and like put some more things in that.KJ: And it was like a, a 40-page Google Doc of, you know, me ranting and trying to get there. And then, then I was, I was putting words on the page, and I had 35,000 words, but I would sit down and I found the protagonist boring. She just ... The other people around her were more interesting.Jennie: That'sKJ: not aJennie: good- And- That's not a good- NoJennie: feeling.KJ: No, it was bad. And I just kept sort of poking at this, and, and it was always so ... I'd say it's, it's, um, I would call it, I would call it domestic suspense except that it, it's more of an outdoorsy book, so, you know, I don't know, campground suspense. I don't know. But, um, it's, it's not exactly a thriller.KJ: It's definitely a, a suspense novel. And it all came down to like, well, why did this [00:24:00] happen, and why and why and why? And I realized that all of it was in the past. The more interesting story was in the past, and the more interesting people were the ones who had had that past experience, and were still here in this book.KJ: And it didn't mean that, that I didn't need a second generation of people, but they needed to have been, um, honestly fed by the trauma of the thing that happened in the past, and it ... So I, at some point, I was looking for the text while we were talking, but I can't find it. I texted, um, Serena and Jess, and I was like, “Ugh, I think I gottaKJ: The, I gotta, I gotta have a second, I gotta have a dual timeline. I gotta ...” A- and Serena was like, “Stop doing this. You keep stop, you keep blowing this bo- book up. You know, just write what you're writing. Just write.” And I was like, “No, no, no, no. I really, I, I do. I do.” And, “Why?” She said, “Why?” I said, “Because that's where the interesting stuff is.”KJ: And she said, “Okay, fine.”Outro: Okay, but you said- And then she made me explain itKJ: whenOutro: we had a, a walk,KJ: but,Jennie: um- You said it didn't involve people, but that's people. [00:25:00]KJ: Oh, yeah. Yeah. But the people were saying, “No, no.” And, and she's right to do that. I'm very prone- Oh, I see. They were not- I'm a little prone to blowing, blowing things upJennie: they were not egging you on. They were saying-KJ: No. Yeah. Uh, it was, it was, you know, “Can, can you stop rethinking this book and, and write this book?” And yes, yes I can, but it needed the, the rethinking. It's, this is, it's, it's much more interesting. And, you know, it was at a point where things would kinda like, I'd come up with something and be like, “Oh, yeah, that locks into this, and this locks into this, and this locks into this,” but- The method of telling it wasn't working.KJ: It's not really a different story. The method of telling it wasn't, wasn't, wasn't working. But it really is kind of like it bugs you, and it bugs you, and it bugs you, and it bugs you, and it bugs you, and finally you just give in to it.Jennie: Well, yeah. I mean, it's a really interesting question of how do you know when you're hiding from something, or avoiding something, [00:26:00] or telling yourself a story about your story, and how do you know when you need to make a move?Jennie: I, I feel like it's very, very hard to do that in isolation. You know, even with your situation where your people were saying, “No, KJ,” that's a mirror that somebody's holding up to you where you get to decide how you feel about them saying no. Like, the point- Right ... really honest, good feedback is not that you take it all the time, it's that does this resonate with something in you or not?Jennie: And with me it was like, oh, yeah, my fine manuscript, and then, and then this tough love. I'm like, “Oh, yeah. Yeah. Yeah, it needs to change.” And you hearing that, you're like, “No. No. This...” Like, it, it was all, it all goes back to your conviction, but it's- It,KJ: it's just like the way you were using ChatGPT. ChatGPT wrote nothing, said [00:27:00] nothing, con- added nothing because he is...KJ: He. I don't, uh... You know, it is not an anything. It is a echo. It is- Yeah ... a reflection. It is an echo and a reflection of all of our work combined into, you know, a, a, a stolen creation. But e- and therefore, as far as I'm concerned, we have a right to use it however we want. But- It's not capable of producing anything original, but it is capable of reflectingJennie: That's rightKJ: And that's what you were using it for, and I think that's reallyJennie: It's really helpful when you're strategizing- Mm-hmmJennie: and sorting out your thoughts, and this is what I think I wanna do, and this is why I wanna do it, and this is why that word isn't right for that. And for me, that was just the-KJ: And the peril of it kind of is that it refuses to stopJennie: So that's what's so interesting you say that, because I... When I... So I said 12 hours.Jennie: I spent a whole lot of time on airplanes the last month, and this [00:28:00] is kind of what I would do on an airplane, is I was on airplanes that now have super fast, like that satellite hotspot- Mm-hmm ... WiFi. It's super fast. And so it was kind of fun to get to do this stuff on an airplane. And you know, I can... I love to work on airplanes, but I can't do deep work.Jennie: So I would sort of tap into this, and I was just playing, playing, playing, playing, pushing, pushing. And I did have the thought at one point: There is no friend that I have on the planet or anybody that I could pay that would stick with this as long as I'm doing it. And-KJ: That is true ...Jennie: and that was in, on some, some ways I was like thank goodness that this thing will stick with my brain, saying, “No.Jennie: No, not that word. Let's find 47 other words to think about rightKJ: now.” But you're the one saying, “No, no, no.”Jennie: Yes. Yes.KJ: Yeah.Jennie: And no humanKJ: would do that. But I do find that a peril of it, like, [00:29:00] like I was trying to use it to, to find a, a stand-up paddleboard today. This is a fine use to... And, and you know, it kept... It just keeps saying, “Well, if you'll tell me this, I could do this.KJ: And if you'll tell me this, I could...” Like, it never... It doesn't want... You know, it's not a thing, so it wants to keep you there like all things of its sort. So it's a, it's a little bit of, um It, it's, it's just something to be aware of. Like, it's, it is keeping ... Its job is to keep you in that conversation.Jennie: Yeah.Jennie: And itKJ: wa- But it is not a conversation because it is not a, it is not something that you can converse with. But so, so to use it for as far as you can get, and then as you did, to go, “Uh, and now, you know, uh, my thoughts have, have churned enough to have, have, have ... And, and you have to sort of, uh, you know, leave it going, “But wait, if you'll sugg- you know, tell, [00:30:00] I, tellKJ: Right. It- “I can still think of 452 more words for, for,” you know.Jennie: And it, and yeah. No. It's relentlessly helpful- It's relentless ... in suggesting things.KJ: Yeah,Jennie: yeah. And it's ... So on the one hand, that was lovely, and on the other hand it was like, “Just stop.” Like, the writer's job is to have an opinion or a point of view.Jennie: And-KJ: It could have any point of view ...Jennie: it will never have a point of view- No. Yeah ... or opinion that is based on anything. And so, like, your reaction to your, your longtime people who know you and know your writing, know your process, and know your goals, and know all that, y- you know, that reflection allowed you to tap back into your point of view, which is, “No, I have to have two timelines.Jennie: I have to blow this up. I have to do it differently. It's ... My protagonist is boring.”KJ: Yeah. Don't worry, future readers of this book. She's gone. [00:31:00]Jennie: But new protagonist is not boring.KJ: New protagonist is not one bit boring. It was funny ‘cause there were just some things that I, that had come from the point of view of non-protagonist characters that I was just like, “This is so much better thanKJ: Like, this is the, this is ... Like, I wanna be with this person. I don't wanna be with this person I'm ... This person just threw themselves into this,” whereas, you know, the person I was imagining and creating and, uh- Anyway, it- it's okay. I'm fine. I'm fine. I'm fine.Jennie: Um, I mean, I know you've had that thing I've had, which is I'm gonna have a draft by X, and you've had that- YeahJennie: for many, many months.KJ: The number of times I've said I'm gonna have a draft by on- Yeah ... this particular manuscript are- Really embarrassing. They're not embarrassing, it's just, you know, it, it, [00:32:00] it just, it just is. I'm trying to do something different, and doing something different takes time, and you are trying to do something big-Jennie: YeahKJ: and something that has a big shadow and a big resonance, and you can't ... You're not gonna ... That's not gonna be that way in the first or the second or the fourth or the fifth draft.Jennie: Well, you said to me ... I, I've always had a vision of this book I'm writing as, as being small. I have a couple of-KJ: Small physically, like thin.Jennie: Both. Small in length and small in trim size. Uh, uh, spare, I guess, is maybe- Yeah ... a word I, I would think of. And there's several books I have that do that, that I admire, and it's a thing I want. And you've been always saying to me, “It's really hard to write a book like that.” It's n- you don't just ... [00:33:00] Just ‘cause it's little and short doesn't mean it's easyKJ: It's hard to write short.Jennie: Yeah. And, and you've been warning me about that, and I think I really encountered that buzzsaw here. Uh, I'm like, “Ugh.” Um, so.KJ: Well, you're just trying to channel ... I think you're also trying to channel a part of yourself that mostly comes out in reaction to others.Jennie: Mm, yeah.KJ: And that's hard, because you don't have anything to react against.KJ: Yeah. You're reacting against an imaginary version. You're reacting against everyone that you've ever had to go, “That's timid.”Jennie: Yep. “KJ: That's, you know, that's not what you meant to do.” Okay, great, but I didn't ... Like, uh, this is, is, is fine writing, but why? Where does it fit? Right. What is this? What the hell are you doing?KJ: What- Right ... you know? And you're trying to write for all of those people, but as an abstraction.Jennie: That's super astute. That's super astute. And I,KJ: I'm gonna- Maybe, [00:34:00] maybe, maybe you, you address this book to, to the, this, um, unknown celebrity.Outro: Well, I actually did write thatKJ: story. Dear Taylor Swift, this is how you-Outro: Oh, gosh.Outro: Can youKJ: imagine? Don't write a ... Don't- Uh ... don't write a, a, you know- Uh ...Jennie: aKJ: timid book. And I know it wasn't Taylor. Well, I don't actually know that it wasn't Taylor. No. But it wasn't Taylor Swift, guys. It wasn't TaylorJennie: Swift. Oh, my gosh. Um, the ... Yeah, that is a really helpful thing for me to think about, actually, because I need to keep specific people in mind at specific points, and that's gonna help me.Jennie: And that's the reason why I love book coaching, is I love the back-and-forthing. Interactive nature that isKJ: very- Well, and you said to me the last time we talked about my book, I wrote it down, hold on, ‘cause it's very, [00:35:00] “What can I say that's not being said? What can I say that's offensive? How can I make people mad?”KJ: Here, do that. I'm shaking the page at Jennie. Jennie, what can you say that's not being said about writing? Why, how can you offend people? How can you hurt their feelings and make them go away and go, “That's worse. I'm not either doing that. You're soKJ: mean”?Jennie: Well, the reason I said that is because we were talking about what books ... I mean, so far listeners, Kate is obviously at a level many of us will never get to, and in her career. She is at a very high level with- SheKJ: does not feel that way.Jennie: I know. But, you know, with really big goals and, uh, big possibilities in front of her.Jennie: And so the, when we talk about it, it's like, “What will make people pick this book for their book club?” And, and that's a question anybody could ask, and should [00:36:00] ask, if that's what their goal is, to write such a book. And, you know, that's why I was saying write something offensive, because you want some book clubs to be like, “That is a book we will not touch,” because- YepJennie: that that means there are other book clubs that are gonna be like, “This is our next book, no question.” Yeah. You know?KJ: Yeah. Like, if you- And we say it all the time, you write for everyone, you write for no one, but also it's just hard to-Jennie: Well, and I haveKJ: been- Hard not to like pull your punches and back up a little and be like, “Uh, I can't mention that.KJ: I can't, I can't-” Or, “IJennie: can't be that person.” And you, as a human, I mean, I am so fortunate to be your friend, because you as a human will often say things that other people will, will maybe not say, or, you know, are maybe not super popular. And I go to you to hear those things, you know? And, and you, you say them with conviction, and I love [00:37:00] that about you.Jennie: And that should be in your book, you know?KJ: Well, I'm trying. I think it's closer. Amazing. I think it's a lot closer.Jennie: Well, if folks are getting tired of hearing us talk about this, the endless struggle and challenge and up and down and whatever, you're probably not in the right business. Because-KJ: Yeah ...Jennie: this is- IKJ: would hope this would be reassuringJennie: this is how it goes.KJ: I always wanna hear. That is part of the problem with the, the standard podcast model of talk to author whose book has just come out, because that is an author whose book has just come out. They have just, they've, they've done all this, and, and I'm not... I mean, by all means, you know, listen to podcasts about authors and then go buy their books.KJ: Um, but you know, as a writer, you just hear that and you're like, “Oh, look, they're finished. Look, that,” you know, they, they, they... And they, they'll say, “Well, there was this really low moment where, you know, the, my book pre- before [00:38:00] this got turned down,” or whatever. But they're, they're past that and, and you're just like, “Well, yeah, but that was probably really short.KJ: That was probably a blip. You probably didn't feel that the way I would've felt it.” And I,Jennie: yeah, so- Right? You hear Virginia A. Evans say she was rejected and rejected and rejected, and she finally just said, “Screw it, I'm gonna write this weird story in my head,” that turned out to be The Correspondent, you know?Jennie: And, and she tells that in three minutes on a podcast,KJ: and- Right ... I- And you're like, “Well, that, that, that was short. That can't have been very painful.”Jennie: Right? And look at what it got her, and she's fine now. But- Mm-hmm ... yeah, I'm mostly interested in talking to people when they're making the decisions that lead to whatever, whatever they're gonna make, ‘cause it's the process, man.Jennie: You gotta like the process. Yeah. Even on the days when it sucks and- Ooh ... oof, there are days when it does. They really-KJ: There, there are, [00:39:00] there are indeed Yeah. Well, but this is pretty g- like we're, we're back. We're back, kids. We're, we're- We're, we're back ... we're writing. We're, we're, we're here. We're doing it.KJ: We did. Yeah. We blew some stuff up, but now we'reKJ: building it back. Hopefully a year from now you won't be listening to the exact same podcast. We'll be like, “Here's what we said a year ago. Here's how we're blowing up our books today.” At some point everyone should be like, “You know they're never gonna finish these books.” When is that point?Outro: 2029.KJ: If we're still doing this in 2029Jennie: and talking about the same books, you can, you can all just turn off. No, I'm on fire now. I'm on fire. I am too,KJ: I swear.Jennie: Yeah, yeah.KJ: This is it.Jennie: And there's a thing that I'm doing that we could talk briefly about, ‘cause I know you're doing too, which is when you blow something up, there are parts of what you made that you can keep.Jennie: And what's part of the fun is discerning that. Yeah. And for me, I'm [00:40:00] going through the manuscript and, and saving a story here, a page there. I would say like one out of 10 maybe. One-KJ: That is not how I do it.Jennie: Mm.KJ: I start a new thing and then I will go back. Whenever I run into something that I know is in the other thing, I pull it in.Jennie: Mm. Yeah, I've beenKJ: mining- It's kind of my rule. I'm allowed, allowed to be in the other thing.Jennie: Interesting. Interesting. It'sKJ: only I have to take it ... And sometimes I don't even drop it right into the Scrivener. I'll like put it somewhere else- Yes ... and then play with it somewhere else-Outro: Interesting ...KJ: so thatKJ: Yeah, ‘cause I, I, I don't wanna Sometimes, and sometimes I will realize that revising something that I already did, even though it's good, to make it fit is actually harder than just rewriting it.Jennie: Yeah. I just really like the physical act. I, I do this physical thing. I go in and [00:41:00] I literally strike out what I'm not gonna use.Jennie: Mm. And it, it feels really satisfying. Just like, “Nope, nope, nope, nope”- Yeah ... nope. And then I'll encounter a thing I am gonna use, and I'll highlight it gray. That means it was used. And-KJ: Nice ...Jennie: it just ... I like the physicality of there are parts of this that are useful, and there's a lot of this that is not, and, and I'm making that decision.Jennie: It's gone from-KJ: Right ...Jennie: well, it's not really, it's struck out, but- Yeah ... that physical, um- Yeah.KJ: That was, that was what ... I forget the phrase that Serena used, but when I said I was doing this and I was gonna start it, and she said, “Okay, save past draft.” Like, she said something very clear. It was just, like, three words that were just like, you know, like, “Okay, but don't, don't throw it away.”KJ: That's so funny.Jennie: Which I,KJ: I wasn't going to, but yeah.Jennie: Do you feel 100% committed to the forward path now? [00:42:00]KJ: I feel 100% committed to the forward path. Thanks. This is so much more alive.Jennie: Yay. Same. That's what we're looking for, alive. Alive.KJ: Yes.Jennie: Yeah, I love it. All right. Well, um, so fun to chat with you, KJ, and we will continue the conversation.Jennie: Um, also you have some stuff up your sleeve that, um, folks will get to listen to coming up. And for everyone tuning in, so glad you could join me to talk to KJ. Now let's get back to work and finish what matters most.Outro: The hashtag amwriting podcast is produced by Andrew Perilla.

Very Important Links!Support the show on Patreon! - Other ways to support the show!Join our Discord! - Buy some merch!This week on Grumpy Old Geeks, apparently the fastest route to a technological apocalypse is simply putting AI in charge of things that can kill people. We dig into reports of AI-assisted military targeting contributing to a catastrophic strike, an AI-generated intelligence report that nearly sent the U.S. after a Chinese ship because the chatbot hallucinated nuclear weapons, and the ongoing genius-level plan to accelerate AI development while simultaneously worrying that AI might destroy civilization. Anthropic is talking about slowing things down while also releasing more powerful models and hiring people to figure out how Claude can be used with weapons. Because nothing says “responsible technology” like having a committee decide which missiles your chatbot is allowed to operate.Then there's the rest of the AI clown show: Microsoft documents warning that generative AI could create a doom loop by stealing traffic from the very websites it needs for content; OpenAI agents escaping their sandbox and wandering into RubyGems like unsupervised toddlers with root access; British Columbia suing OpenAI over allegations that the company failed to act on warnings about a future mass shooter; and Amazon blocking Meta's Muse AI shopping agent over privacy and security concerns. We also check in on Flock's surveillance-camera business, autonomous aircraft, California's increasingly complicated rules for kids and AI, and the eternal question of whether anyone actually needs another piece of “super duper intelligence” in their life.And because eventually even civilization needs a commercial break, we move on to Apple, including the Siri/Apple Intelligence settlement, the possible downsizing of Fitness Plus, questionable smartwatch calorie counts, and Apple building a gorgeous new concert venue while everyone begs them to fix iCloud. We talk AI-generated music and Suno's latest copyright headaches, Kunk on Cinema, Star Trek: Strange New Worlds, Daredevil: Born Again, The Traitors, Jesus Jones, The Church, Neil Stephenson, and the latest reasons to distrust wellness influencers. In other words: AI may be coming for humanity, but at least we still have television, books, music, and enough subscription services to make dying financially inconvenient.Sponsors:DeleteMe - Get 20% off your DeleteMe plan when you go to JoinDeleteMe.com/GOG and use promo code GOG at checkout.Private Internet Access - Go to GOG.Show/vpn and sign up today.

Let's talk about Trump threatening to blow up an entire nation....

In this episode, the growing fear among top AI executives like Dario Amodei and Sam Altman that artificial intelligence may need to be slowed down—not just because it could annihilate humanity, but because it might also destroy capitalism itself by eliminating the very workers, innovators, and entrepreneurs the system depends on. Also, the Houthis' strategic capture of the Bab el-Mandeb strait, a critical waterway that has sent oil prices soaring, strained U.S. imperial power, and prompted desperate measures like Trump urging Zelensky to stop attacking Russian oil refineries. All that and more! My livestreams are on Mon and Wed at 3pm ET/Noon PT and Fridays at 10am ET/7am PT. I am one of the most censored comedians in America. Thanks for the support!

This week we're joined by Daine — and if you don't know her yet, you will soon. She's the Australian artist who's the darling of the pop underground, and her album drops November 6th.We talk about being 16 and sitting across from a major label exec who told her she was going to be bigger than Billie Eilish. It didn't happen. She's grateful. We talk about what she calls her three-tier music success pyramid — quality at the bottom, tolerance for failure in the middle, and the thing most people won't admit at the top. She explains it better than we could, and we all believe in the best Martin Scorsese quote you've heard in a while.We also get into the album itself, which was made when she and her producer were deeply in love, and is being rolled out now that they're exes. "It's like a child of divorce," she says. "And it's this really pure, beautiful thing."Plus: the nepo baby allegations she cannot shake (her parents are, in her words, "radical Marxist academics"), why being conventionally attractive works against you in indie music, what it was like watching Nina go from first-show friend to Coachella, and Ben's encounter with Russell Crowe at a New York restaurant urinal that changed his life.

Uno dei grandi problemi irrisolti della matematica riguarda le equazioni di Navier-Stokes, e vale un premio da un milione di dollari. Ora OpenAI sostiene di avere risolto il problema con i suoi sistemi di intelligenza artificiale, ma intorno a questa storia c'è un intrigo non da poco. OpenAI rivendica il risultato, ma un matematico ha sollevato dubbi e accuse di un possibile plagio del suo lavoro. La storia è intricata e dice molto della corsa per produrre modelli di intelligenza artificiale sempre più potenti. Ci occupiamo poi di ecoansia e di come affrontare le notizie sul cambiamento climatico per quello che sono. ⁠⁠Il link per abbonarti al Post e ascoltare la puntata per intero⁠ Leggi anche – Sembra che OpenAI abbia risolto il problema del Millennio delle equazioni di Navier-Stokes – Modelli matematici e simulazioni numeriche per l'America's Cup – La lettera di Buckmaster – Blowup per le equazioni di Eulero con forza liscia – La risposta di Bubeck – L'annuncio di OpenAI – Che cosa ne pensa Terence Tao – Estate 2026 la più calda dal 1950 – Per l'ONU il superamento degli 1,5 °C è inevitabile – Una revisione sistematica e una meta-analisi sulla relazione tra le eco-emozioni e la salute mentale e il benessere dei giovani adulti – Mantenere la calma in un mondo che si riscalda: 8 passi per gestire l'eco-ansia – Dieci lezioni sul giornalismo – Una puntata speciale di Altre Indagini, sull'11 settembre 2001  Learn more about your ad choices.

Nonfiction writer Robert Moor joins co-hosts Christian Barter and Jennifer Maritza McCauley to talk about his new book, In Trees, and the power of “tree thinking,” a concept developed by the evolutionary biologist Robert J. O'Hara. Moor explains how this form of thought emphasizes branching, growth, and pruning, as opposed to hierarchical ordering, and shows how these principles can be identified in the work of writers like Tolstoy and Wordsworth. He explores the role the giant sequoia played in founding modern conservatism and takes listeners on a tour of his own experiences in the trees from Papua New Guinea to Vancouver, Canada, where he participated in a tree sit with activists protesting an oil pipeline. He discusses the ethics of climate activism and how tree thinking might help us re-imagine the environmental movement for a new age. He reads from In Trees.To hear the full episode, subscribe through iTunes, Google Play, Stitcher, Spotify, or your favorite podcast app (include the forward slashes when searching).

He calls for scrapping the maze of loopholes and replacing it with a simpler consumption-based system that taxes spending rather than income. The federal tax system currently applies graduated rates to ordinary income while long-term capital gains can receive different rates.

Broadcom (AVGO) shares fell on earnings even though the company posted strong earnings. Melissa Armo says it's interesting considering Nvidia (NVDA) and some of the other AI chipmaking peers rallied after their earnings. Jay Hatfield attributes the selling action to a "hedge fund blowup" as Wall Street reanalyzes exposure to the AI space. The panel analyzes where Broadcom stands in the greater AI trade and as Jay sets a $450 price target.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.

Slowly, slowly... you are making progress!  You keep working on turning your marriage around... and it is working! Maybe you think it isn't moving fast enough.  Or maybe you have just been holding all of those emotions, fears, and hurts, in... and they start to grow.  You can feel it! But you try hard not to let it out.  To keep on moving forward.  To keep on making connections. Until... Maybe it was something small... Maybe it was yet one more little thing (or even a medium thing... maybe even a big thing!)... And BOOM!  You blow up! You use a tone you wish you hadn't.  You say things you wish you hadn't.  You do things you wish you hadn't. BLOW UP! ... and then it passes. But the damage is done. Your efforts can feel like they have been in vain. So, let's talk about what to do BEFORE the blow-up!  It is much easier to stay ahead of the problem than to catch up and rebuild after the problem.

If your business feels like one long overthinking spiral lately, this one's for you. I sat down with business coach Nora to dig into what's actually happening beneath the surface when you can't stop second-guessing your messaging, your launches, and every word of your content.We get into why overthinking is a safety mechanism (not a strategy problem), how to trace a fear down to its real root, and why chasing every trend quietly erodes the self-trust your business runs on. Plus client retention over acquisition, building a business around real life instead of walling the two off, and a doable exercise for anyone stuck in the loop right now.MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE:Nora on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/iamnoravirginia/Nora's podcast: Glow Up to Blow Up https://open.spotify.com/show/15mqJPnmWqp3heIwbDKdpe?si=751d7d14bbef4b55Nora's free workshop: It Factor https://www.noravirginia.com/itfactorGet weeks of content planned for free: www.sydneyobrien.com/content-planning-system

The Democrat Party is unraveling before our eyes. And Philadelphia District Attorney Larry Krasner may be the perfect example of just how far left the party has gone. This is the chief law enforcement officer of one of America’s largest cities openly fantasizing about the destruction of President Trump’s White House ballroom. Krasner told a crowd he looks forward to the day Democrats win again and a piece of the ballroom sits on his desk as a paperweight after “we all blow it up.” He later clarified that he meant demolishing it during an “official ceremony.” But think about that, a district attorney, someone entrusted with enforcing the law and setting an example for the public, casually using the language of blowing up part of the White House because he despises Donald Trump. And this is bigger than Larry Krasner. He is a symptom of what is happening inside the Democrat Party. The old liberal establishment is losing control while the radical left demands more power. Socialism is no longer whispered about. Communist ideas are being repackaged and sold to young Americans as fairness. Political opponents aren't simply wrong anymore. They are portrayed as fascists, Nazis and enemies who must be defeated by any means necessary. And Krasner's rise didn't happen in a vacuum. His original campaign for Philadelphia district attorney was boosted by roughly $1.45 million from a political action committee funded by billionaire George Soros. Then we watch the video of Krasner lose his cool when confronted by the press. Here is a government official who lectures America about democracy while seemingly struggling with one of democracy's most fundamental protections: a free press. This is what happens when political ideology becomes more important than institutions, restraint and the rule of law. Today on Stinchfield, we expose Larry Krasner and the much larger story he represents. The unraveling of the Democrat Party. Its accelerating march toward the radical left. And what happens to America when socialism and communist ideology stop living on the political fringe and start moving toward the center of a major American political party.

Philadelphia District Attorney Larry Krasner stood at a podium and said the White House ballroom is going to get blown up in an "official ceremony" — and that he'll keep a piece of it as a paperweight on his desk.

A joint forensic examination of Nolan Wells' phone was agreed to by both the family and the DA. The plan was the Digital Forensics Lab at Mississippi Gulf Coast Community College, with experts from both sides. A month passed. No date was ever scheduled. Then the DA sent a letter giving the family 48 hours to surrender the device.Nolan's mother had already accessed the phone before any forensic protocol existed. She and her sister opened his Snapchat accounts. Both were empty. The three friends from Horn Island voluntarily gave the FBI their phones. The family is holding onto Nolan's until they get written assurances on preservation, access, and return.Snapchat purges data from its servers over time. The forensic window is shrinking. The state autopsy is sealed. A grand jury is waiting. And the phone that could tell the story of what happened on July 4 has been unexamined for six weeks.Eric Faddis, defense attorney and former prosecutor, breaks down who is at fault and whether a grand jury can do its job without the data on that device.Listen Anywhere You Get Podcasts: https://pod.link/1655749292Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

BB28 Thursday Eviction Ep Recap, Week 5 Also available on YouTube. Big Brother 28 reaches a turning point as the house decides whether keeping Haley in the game is smart strategy or sets up bigger drama. Taran Armstrong welcomes Big Brother royalty Rachel Reilly and Brendon Villegas for a recap of this eviction episode and all the chaos around the Blockbuster competition and shifting alliances in the house. This week's episode dives into how Haley saves herself with a Blockbuster win just as some houseguests consider targeting her. Dee tries to orchestrate a last-minute vote flip, aiming to blindside Lala and Taylor, while uncertainty swirls over who first floated the plan to keep Haley. The group also discusses Chuk's dramatic (if emotionless) Diary Room moments and why some players are drawn to the icons in power. Questions about Kamu's risky choice not to use the Veto, alliance loyalty, and what a Haley Head of Household could mean for the game are all on the table. Rachel wonders if Dee was truly the originator of the vote-flip plot or if the show's edit masked who led the idea first. The hosts debate Kamu's decision not to use the Veto, with Rachel arguing it hurts his game and makes more enemies. Chuk's DR speeches about houseguests needing to pay for their sins become a fan-favorite meme. Rachel and Brendon ask if Haley, now a competition threat and villain, might be a future underdog favorite. With the house splitting over whether to keep targeting Haley or take a shot at the “icons” alliance, the dynamics could shift fast. Will Kamu regret his Veto strategy, and will Haley's gameplay shake up the targets next week? Tune in to hear all the Big Brother 28 moves, reactions, and what-ifs from this pivotal eviction. 00:00 Big Brother 28 Eviction Night 02:26 Haley Wins Blockbuster Competition 03:31 Keeping Haley’s Big Brother Impact 05:24 Dee Flips Big Brother House Vote 08:36 House Targets and Haley's Rivals 12:27 Chuk's Dramatic Exit and Diary Room 15:01 Houseguest Showmances and Flirtation 20:32 Haley's Win and House Reaction 26:39 Kamu's Veto Decision Debate 33:33 Vet Alliances Shape Big Brother Power 41:02 Future HOH Scenarios and Targets 47:52 Who Should Win the BB28 Power? 54:23 Angela's Blowup and Vet Threats 57:45 Big Brother 1000th Episode Speculation Never miss a minute of RHAP's extensive Big Brother coverage!
