1181. This week, we talk to Sarah L. Kaufman about verbs. We look at why English is a "manner verb" superpower and why babies often learn prepositions before actions. Then, we look at how choosing strong, dynamic verbs can actually save lives during a disaster and how specific words like "smash" can physically alter a witness's memory.Find Sarah L.

This episode examines a Bluesky thread where cartoonists self-reported their financial realities. While the original question was thoughtful — seeking insight into full-time and part-time comic careers — the resulting discussion revealed a common problem: an echo chamber of discouragement. Brad and Dave emphasize that these threads often skew negative due to self-selection bias. Many successful creators don't participate—either because they're busy, uncomfortable sharing income, or wary of backlash. The result? A distorted picture where it appears that no one is succeeding, even though many are.

When CBS was founded in 1927, its radio programming focused on entertainment, music, and fun. That all changed when a horrific prison fire broke out at the Ohio Penitentiary in 1930. CBS aired on-the-spot coverage of the event, with Otto "Deacon" Gardner, an inmate in the prison, at the microphone. At the time, Gardner's gripping broadcast captured the attention of audiences across the country and started CBS on the path to creating the hard-hitting news that would define the network for nearly a century. Brooke sits down with historian A. Brad Schwartz, author of the recent piece CJR piece "The Eyewitness", to talk about this largely forgotten event in radio history and what it tells us about the type of radio reporting that speaks to listeners and builds trust with audiences.

"Francine, you be very careful out there today—we're at terror alert orange! Which means something might go down somewhere in some way at some point in time... So look sharp!" - Stan Smith This week, we're switching gears and looking back at the first episode of American Dad, which only just returned to Fox after over a decade of basic cable existence. Though the series was at first seen as a cheap copy of Family Guy born out of the misery of the George W. Bush administration, American Dad didn't take long to carve out its own weird, wonderful identity and quietly thrive over the last two decades.

BREAKING: The U.S. Supreme Court just kneecapped the Voting Rights Act (VRA), a landmark civil rights law that restricted racial gerrymandering and racial discrimination in voting.

We're sure you can relate to this sensation. You finish reading a comic, and as you close the back cover, you look over your shoulder. Has the creator responsible for this book been living in your home? Have they been watching you when you weren't looking? Cuz this comic seems made specifically for you. That's certainly how we feel about Kevin Alvir and his latest graphic novel, Lisa Cheese and Ghost Guitar: The Rock God Complex, out now from Top Shelf Productions. This second book in his Lisa Cheese and Ghost Guitar series sees Alvir upping his game. He's perfectly smashed the indie comics world with the superhero fantasy. As we state on the back of the book, in the pull-quote we're most proud of, “What if Jack Kirby tabled at @SPXComics? You'd get Lisa Cheese and Ghost Guitar!” If you understand that statement, you're already in. You should put this book in your hands immediately. Kevin Alvir masterfully blends the mundane with the extraordinary. His characters are struggling, but they're fighting the good fight, and they will overcome their internal and external battles. In this week's podcast, we discuss with the cartoonist how he leveled up for his sequel, the power of unhinged, righteous anger, and how reading and creating comics help you sort your stuff out. Every character in Lisa Cheese and Ghost Guitar: The Rock God Complex is searching for something: from guitar strings to vampire teeth to self-respect. What they eventually find carves a path for the reader to follow. It's a beautiful, affirming, human story with cybernetic unicorns, ghost guitarists, demons, and naysayers. Continue the conversation with Kevin Alvir by following him on Instagram and BlueSky.

Gasoline prices in the United States often feel disconnected from a simple expectation: if a country produces more oil than anyone else in the world, shouldn't fuel be cheap? Yet Americans frequently face high prices at the pump, even during periods of record domestic production. The explanation lies not in a single cause, but in a complex mix of engineering constraints, global market dynamics, and structural mismatches within the U.S. energy system, compounded by Donald Trump's war with Iran.

Inspired by January's mass strike against ICE terror in Minnesota, a vast coalition of labor unions, democratic organizations, and community groups are organizing a nationwide economic blackout on Friday, May 1, International Workers Day. “May Day Strong events are being planned across the US,” Michael Sainato reports at The Guardian, “with organizers calling for ‘no school, no work, no shopping,' in protest of government policies they say put billionaires' needs above those of workers.” In this episode of Working People, we speak with a panel of guests who are all involved in organizing May Day events this week from Philadelphia to Chicago to Iowa. Panelists include: Jana Korn, who currently serves as the chief of staff for the Philadelphia Council AFL-CIO, and also serves on the board of Philadelphia Jobs with Justice; Jeff Kurtz, a retired locomotive engineer and union officer who also served as a state representative in the Iowa House of Representatives; and John Emiliano, a healthcare worker and organizer in Chicago with the Tahanan Center and Tanggol Migrante, a grassroots Filipino migrant defense network.Additional links/info: May Day Strong coalition websiteWorkers Over Billionaires 2026 - Philadelphia LinktreeWorkers Over Billionaires 2026 - Chicago details Lee County (Iowa) Labor Chapter Facebook page and May Day 2026 detailsTahanan Filipino Center InstagramTanggol Migrante websiteLatino Union of Chicago website Michael Sainato, The Guardian, “US activists plan May Day economic blackout: ‘No school, no work, no shopping'”Featured Music: Jules Taylor, Working People Theme SongCredits: Audio Post-Production: Jules TaylorBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-real-news-podcast--2952221/support.Help us continue producing radically independent news and in-depth analysis by following us and becoming a monthly sustainer.Follow us on:Bluesky: @therealnews.comFacebook: The Real News NetworkTwitter: @TheRealNewsYouTube: @therealnewsInstagram: @therealnewsnetworkBecome a member and join the Supporters Club for The Real News Podcast today!

1180. Why does "Ye Olde Shoppe" look old-fashioned? This week, we look at the vanished letters of English — thorn, eth, and yogh — and at why English has so many words that are spelled the same but have different meanings, such as "compact" (an agreement) and "compact" (to press together). The homographs segment was written by Samantha Enslen who runs Dragonfly Editorial. You can find her at dragonflyeditorial.com.The Old English segment was written by Karen Lunde who writes the newsletter I'll Go First. Find her on igofirst.org.
This week we zoomed out to take stock of the greatest financial heist in recorded history. Sixteen years of bailouts, money printing, and acronym soup that kept corporate America whole while the rest of us fell further behind. And then we took a quick detour into crypto, where Bitcoin is quietly creeping back up and the guy sitting on $62 billion worth of it really wants you to think that’s a sign you should buy in.

Attorney and former public defender Eliza Orlins of “Objection: Everything” joins Steve Schmidt to talk about the startling reporting on the online “rape academy” that no one is talking about but should be. It is depravity at a scale that is hard to wrap your head around: an online website where men across the globe could discuss, plan and share videos of their wives and partners being assaulted was visited 62 million times in one month alone – and the vast majority of its users are right here in the United States.

Howard Jacobson has screamed "liar" at the BBC, lost friends over a newspaper article, and started asking his wife whether it's still safe to live in London. Now he's written a novel about all of it. *Howl* is the story of Ferdinand Draxler — Jewish headmaster, reluctant marcher, man on the edge — who watches the world he believed in applaud the October 7th massacre and descends into a rage that may or may not be madness. Jacobson says he borrowed quite a lot from the last two years of his life. In this Unholy Conversations episode, Jacobson talks with Yonit and Jonathan about the ungovernable anger behind the novel, why he chose comedy as the only honest vehicle for it, the friends who wrote accusing him of celebrating Palestinian deaths, the Manchester synagogue where he was bar mitzvahed and which was attacked on Yom Kippur, and the question he can't shake: what would we have done in Berlin in 1932?

Cognitohazards abound this week, as Marcus Kliewer joins me for a conversation about the reality-shredding We Used to Live Here and his new novel of obsessional rules, The Caretaker. In both books, there are things that should not be known, and certainly not questioned. Yet questioning is my job – so we get into the expansive and weird universe Marcus is building, and the process of playing games and leaving clues for the reader. We talk about how his own terrors and neurodivergence informs his fiction, and I pass on a lecture from my wife that these books should come with an OCD trigger warning. Plus – you get not one but TWO recommendations for true existential horror reads. Enjoy! Other books mentioned: We Used to Live Here (2025), by Marcus Kliewer House of Leaves (2000), by Mark Z.

Talk Python To Me - Python conversations for passionate developers
The cloud is convenient until it isn't. You upload your photos, sync your contacts, click through the cookie banners. Then prices go up again or you read about a family that lost their entire Google account over a medical photo sent to a doctor. At some point, the question shifts from "why would I run this myself?" to "why aren't I?" My guest this week is Alex Kretzschmar, head of DevRel at Tailscale, longtime host of the Self-Hosted podcast, and co-founder of Linuxserver.io. We cover what self-hosting really means in 2026, the apps worth running yourself like Immich and Home Assistant, why Docker Compose ties it all together, and how Tailscale lets you reach any of it from anywhere, without opening a single port.

In this long episode, we look at several interviews conducted by notorious 'skeptic' author Michael Shermer on his podcast and "shitty YouTube channel", as it was memorably described by Rebecca Watson... After an introductory discussion of Shermer and his... ahem... chequered history (to put it legally non-actionably), we boggle at the decidedly low-energy Mr Skepticism as he interviews psychologist of abuse and gaslighting Jennifer Fraser PhD about her book about abuse and gaslighting and her own history of being abused and gaslit, all without breaking a bead of sweat. This is Michael Shermer, remember. Then we take in some lowlights of his unbelievably vapid conversation with store-brand Bari Weiss, Bari Weiss's wife, Nellie Bowles, who is just... insufferable. We conclude by voyaging fully into the sickness as we tune into a discussion Shermer had with rabidly Islamophobic Zionist neocon warmonger and racist reactionary crank Douglas Murray, all about how Islam is a 'culture of death' and maybe Israel accidentally did some bad stuff in Gaza but, y'know, that's war, or something. Big content warnings on this one. It's what I call a 'journey episode'. Not only is it over 2hrs long (we try to keep the length down but sometimes it's not possible) but all the way through it also raises topics that are very hard to deal with, including sexual and psychological abuse, and the manifold violent crimes of the state of Israel, including the Gaza genocide. And all through it, there is the personification of self-identified rational, logical, sceptical centrism nodding along like the libertarian reactionary and alleged abuser he actually is. I've made time stamps for this one, for ease of navigation or multi-session listening. The Intro to Shermer section starts around 13:50 The section dealing with the Fraser interview starts around 24:11 The Nellie Bowles bit begins around 1:04:00 And the Douglas Murray section starts at around 1:31:00 NOTES: Rebecca Watson, "So I'm in the Epstein Files" https://www.reddit.com/r/behindthebastards/comments/1p1noab/so_im_in_the_epstein_files_rebecca_watson_on/ Rebecca Watson, "Epstein Files Reveal How Pathetic Richard Dawkins and Others Really Are" https://www.reddit.com/r/behindthebastards/comments/1p1noab/so_im_in_the_epstein_files_rebecca_watson_on/ PZ Myers, "What Do You Do When Someone Pulls the Pin and Hands You a Grenade?"

Steve Schmidt returns to the "Daily Beast" podcast to unload a blistering critique of Donald Trump, King Charles III, and the global political order they’re reshaping, arguing the King’s U.S. visit is not just ill-timed, but a historic moral failure tied to Trump’s assaults on democracy and alliances. Speaking to Daily Beast executive editor Hugh Dougherty, Schmidt connects the dots from royal controversies and Jeffrey Epstein to Trump’s late-night social media tirades and questions about his mental fitness, warning of a dangerous erosion of institutional checks at the highest level of power. He predicts a political collapse for MAGA, a brutal electoral reckoning, and an internal unraveling fueled by conspiracy and infighting, while also torching both Republican complicity and Democratic weakness.

Earlier this month, Donald Trump posted an AI picture that seemed to depict him as Jesus Christ. On the week's On the Media, why the image drew so much ire from Trump's own followers. Plus, why The Onion, a satirical newspaper, is taking over the website of conspiracy theorist Alex Jones. [01:00] Host Brooke Gladstone sits down with David Gilbert, reporter at WIRED covering disinformation and online extremism, to discuss the backlash among MAGA supporters to some of President Trump's recent Truth Social posts, and how he is seeing more anger toward Trump in rightwing media spaces. [15:49] Host Micah Loewinger speaks with Ben Collins, CEO of Global Tetrahedron–the parent company of the satirical newspaper The Onion–about the long saga of trying to buy right-wing conspiracist Alex Jones' media empire, InfoWars. Then, Micah chats with Tom Heidecker, newly named creative director of InfoWars, about how he plans to turn the website and studio into a place for comedy. [30:55] Micah talks with Amy Goodman, host of Democracy Now!, about “Steal This Story, Please!,” a new documentary about her forty-year career as an investigative journalist, radio host, and trailblazer of independent media. Plus, they discuss the often-blurred lines between activism and journalism, and why she prioritizes truth over access in her reporting.
