After 11 years in Boston, the Toronto native is moving on, and according to The Boston Globe's Kevin Dupont, there were hints over the weekend that Gold could be headed to Toronto's front office.Plus, former NHL goaltender and longtime broadcaster Darren Pang stops by to discuss Sergei Bobrovsky, the Maple Leafs' busy offseason, and why he believes there's plenty of reason for optimism heading into the 2026-27 season.

As Told To podcast guest Dave Jordan reads his favorite passage from the baseball memoir he helped to write with the late, great Dave Parker—a seven-time All-Star, a two-time batting champion, a three-time Gold Glove winner, a two-time World Series champion, and the 1978 National League MVP. In Cobra: A Life of Baseball and Brotherhood, the writer and filmmaker lends his collaborative storytelling skills to one of the greatest ballplayers of his generation, known to fans and teammates as "Cobra." Parker was inducted into Major League Baseball's Hall of Fame just weeks after his death in June, 2025, following a decade-long struggle with Parkinson's Disease. Cobra was published by the University of Nebraska Press in 2021 and was nominated for a Casey Award as one of the best baseball books of the year. Upon publication, it was hailed by Boston Globe sportswriter Chad Finn as "mesmerizing, powerful, and right on the money."

He kicks off his new daytime show talking about the controversial death of South Carolina Senator Lindsey Graham who passed away suddenly on Saturday night. It was a day after returning from an official visit to Kyiv, Ukraine.

NH-01 GOP candidate Anthony DiLorenzo joins the NHJournal podcast to talk about his path to success in the primary, and in the general election -- likely against Democrat Stefany Shaheen.He also breaks the news that he's reporting his campaign took in more than $1 million in Q2 (most of it from DiLorenzo himself), which he says shows that this will be the first cycle in at least a decade when the GOP had the cash to go toe-to-toe with Democrats in the 1st CD.Then it's "Rank Punditry" with Boston Globe political reporter James Pindell -- live from Graham Platner's neighborhood in Maine! He joins AFP's Greg Moore and host Michael Graham to talk about the impacts (if any) of the Dems' Platner faceplant on New Hampshire politics. And the eternal question: Why don't NH Democrats ever have any Platners (or AOCs or Sanders or Warrens) of their own?Sponsored by Perfect Smiles of Nashua.

Our team is taking some time off for the summer, so we're bringing you an episode from 2025 about Rhode Island's state coral. Astrangia poculata, also known as Northern Star Coral, isn't like those colorful reefs down in the tropics, but it might play an important role in protecting its more vibrant cousins. To find out more, host Edward Fitzpatrick met with Roger Williams University Professor Koty Sharp, a champion of using Rhode Island's official state coral for marine research. Tips and ideas?

Boston Globe political reporter James Pindell joins WBUR's Morning Edition to discuss who the party could tap to replace Graham Platner at the top of the ticket, were he to withdraw.

We're ringing in the 250th anniversary of the United States with an episode on Garry Wills's superb, Pulitzer Prize-winning 1992 book, Lincoln at Gettysburg: The Words That Remade the America. It's central argument is that Abraham Lincoln succeeded in revolutionizing how Americans thought of the founding of their country, especially the Declaration of Independence, with the Gettysburg Address—a revolution not just in "thought" but in "style," one that placed the Declaration's assertion of equality at the very center of our political tradition. The book is one that only Garry Wills could have written, with his PhD in Classics allowing him to compare Lincoln's "funeral oration" to that of Pericles, with his long meditation on the American presidency and leadership preparing him to grasp the enormity of the task Lincoln set himself, and with his time at National Review in his youth helping him understand why the American right never forgave Lincoln for succeeding. We discuss all this and more in our conversation about one of our favorite writer's very best books.

The Supreme Court is reshaping the balance of power in America—and understanding what comes next has never been more important.On Monday, June 29, in this timely BigTentUSA conversation, Michael Waldman, President and CEO of the Brennan Center‬, joined Boston Globe journalist Kimberly Atkins Stohr to unpack the Court's most consequential rulings of the term and what they mean for democracy, civil rights, immigration, executive power, and the rule of law.

Two great personal documentarians grace the podcast: Ross McElwee (“Sherman’s March”) and Michel Negroponte (“I’m Dangerous With Love”). Long friends and colleagues, Ross and Michel come on to primarily discuss the sensitive subject matter behind Ross’ latest film, “Remake” The film begins a theatrical engagement at Film Forum in NYC on 7/10/2026. They are currently screening a 40th anniversary 4K restored print of his seminal “Sherman’s March”. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U5Vph7D_TxY The death of his son causes McElwee, an autobiographical filmmaker, to look back on his life's work. He eventually turns to his archive of home movies — an afternoon trapping crayfish with his son Adrian, age 4; helping with homework, age 11; discussing career plans with his son, age 24. To what extent did his camera affect their relationship when Adrian was alive? To what extent does it define that relationship now that he is gone? Meanwhile, an effort to adapt McElwee's first feature, “Sherman's March”, into a work of fiction lurches along, giving the filmmaker another perspective from which to meditate on movie making and mortality. Ross McElwee is a documentary filmmaker from Charlotte, North Carolina currently living in Cambridge, Massachusetts. McElwee has made ten feature-length films. “Sherman's March” won Best Documentary at the Sundance Film Festival and was chosen for preservation by the U.S Library of Congress National Film Registry in 2000 as a “historically significant American motion picture.” Bright Leaves premiered at the 2003 Cannes Film Festival's Directors' Fortnight. McElwee’s In Paraguay premiered at the Venice Film Festival in 2008, and he returned to Venice in 2011 to premiere Photographic Memory. McElwee has received fellowships from the Guggenheim Foundation, the Rockefeller Foundation, and the American Film Institute. He has twice been awarded fellowships in filmmaking by the National Endowment for the Arts and production grants from the LEF foundation. McElwee received the Full Frame Documentary Film Festival's Career Award in 2007 and the Pennebaker Award for his career in 2023. In 2024, the French Ministry of Culture awarded McElwee the rank of Chevalier des Artes et des Lettres. McElwee was Professor of the Practice of Filmmaking in the Department of Art, Film and Visual Studies at Harvard beginning in 2003 until his retirement in 2024. He is now a Research Professor, Emeritus in the AFVS Department. About Michel Negroponte Michel Negroponte is an award winning filmmaker who has been making feature length documentaries for more than 30 years. He was born and raised in New York City, and studied filmmaking with Richard Leacock and Ed Pincus at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in the 1970s. In addition to making his own films, he has freelanced on countless films for HBO, PBS, the BBC, and Channel Four. He has also worked with independent filmmakers like Ross McElwee, Doug Block, Lisa Crafts, D.A. Pennebaker, Chris Hegedus, Christine Choy, Dick Rogers, John Marshall and Al Maysles. His films include SPACE COAST (1979), RESIDENT EXILE (1981), SILVER VALLEY (1984), JUPITER’S WIFE (1994), NO ACCIDENT (1996), W.I.S.O.R. (2000), METHADONIA (2005) and I’M DANGEROUS WITH LOVE (2009). JUPITER’S WIFE, a portrait of a beguiling homeless woman named Maggie, won a Special Jury Prize at the Sundance Film Festival and the prize for Best Feature Documentary at the Vancouver and the Santa Barbara Film Festivals. The film was also awarded an Emmy for Outstanding Individual Achievement in Documentary. Originally shot on small format video, it premiered on HBO/Cinemax before getting a nationwide 35mm theatrical release. Edward Guthmann of the San Francisco Chronicle called it one of the ten best films of the year. John Koch of the Boston Globe wrote, “Negroponte has a painter’s eye and a novelist’s reach; and if there is anything more engaging and satisfying than “Jupiter’s Wife” on television or at the movies these days, by all means tell me about it.” Negroponte’s films have been broadcast in the United States on PBS, HBO, and the Sundance Channel as well as in England, France, Germany, Spain, and Japan. His work has been shown at the Sundance Film Festival, The New York Film Festival, and the Museum of Modern Art in New York City and in festivals in Berlin, Rotterdam, Vancouver, and Japan. Negroponte has also taught in the graduate and undergraduate film programs at New York University’s Tisch School of the Arts and Temple University. Recently, he helped create a new graduate program in documentary filmmaking at the School of Visual Arts in New York City, which opened in September, 2009. He is part of the faculty there as well.

This week on Truth to Power, we bring you a community conversation entitled "Notes For Next Time: Surviving Trump and Reviving America." This online event was hosted by the Oberlin Club of Washington, D.C. on April 2nd, 2026 and it featured Oberlin College class of 1965 alumni, Bob Kuttner, co-founder and co-editor of The American Prospect magazine. For Bob and those of his generation, the arc of a lifetime can be described as a period when America made great progress toward social and economic justice, and then watched it get away. Why the great reversal? How did the failure to restore broad prosperity lead to political backlash and the rise of Trump? Moving forward, what lessons might be learned to prevail in winning the arguments and the politics? And how do we make sure there is a next time? Tune in as Bob draws on his five decades at the center of progressive thought and action to share observations and ideas, and reads brief excerpts from his memoir 'Notes for Next Time: Surviving Tyranny, Redeeming America'. He revisits the pivotal moments when different choices could have led to a fairer economy and a stronger democracy, outlines a hopeful path forward, and assess how we may yet survive Trump if we restore decent life prospects for regular people. Robert Kuttner is co-founder and co-editor of The American Prospect magazine and is a Professor in Social Planning and Administration at Brandeis University's Heller School. He was a longtime columnist for Business Week, the Boston Globe, and the Washington Post syndicate. He was a founder of the Economic Policy Institute and serves on its board and executive committee. Bob has authored thirteen books, and his magazine writing, covering the interplay of economics and politics, has appeared in most major publications. His previous positions have included national staff writer on The Washington Post, chief investigator of the US Senate Banking Committee, executive director of President Carter's National Commission on Neighborhoods, and economics editor of The New Republic. Bob earned a BA at Oberlin College in Government and holds an MA from the University of California at Berkeley. He holds honorary doctorates from Oberlin and Swarthmore.

Robert gives us the 250th July 4th Tick Report, nature's revenge for climate change. This week's report includes a menacing headline from the Boston Globe, There's a terrifying uptick in tick-borne illnesses. We educate our listeners on the dangerous and deadly tick-borne disease, the Powassan virus, which transmits in 15 minutes and can include fever, headache, vomiting and weakness. Severe cases can bring brain inflammation, loss of coordination, difficulty speaking, seizures or lasting neurological damage. Ticks and the current heat wave are climate change induced. We discuss new research saying Wisconsin is 2.9 degrees warmer than 1970. We picked up on a story Battleground Wisconsin covered in June, that Democratic-lead states sued the Trump Regime on Medicaid “medically frail” exemption for work requirements. Now, many states and health policy experts say surprise Trump regime regulations are unworkable. Despite the outcry, crickets from Wisconsin's Department of Health Services. So-called “targeted enforcement” keeps the Trump/Miller assault on rights of immigrants out of national headlines (and politics) but continues under the radar. In recent weeks ICE has amped up operations in Milwaukee arresting many with no criminal records. Masked agents and violent arrests traumatize families in Milwaukee. ICE also is refusing to follow Milwaukee's mask ban for all law enforcement officers. We take a dive into the final Supreme Court decisions before the justices go on their long summer hiatus. While immigrants' rights advocates celebrated the birthright citizenship ruling by the US Supreme Court, it is outrageous that it was a 6-3 decision (really, 5-4 on the constitutional question) and not 9-0. Also, SCOTUS further deregulated big campaign cash (modeled on Wisconsin's law) further elevating the “rights” of the wealthy and well-connected over everyone else. We are joined by Kate Zolandz, an organizer with the National Union of Healthcare Workers, who was fired by the sleazy Rogers Behavioral Health. She tells us about the workers successful organizing drive that has resulted in Rogers firing workers and targeting the licenses of staff fired after union vote. The union has started a new website with more details.

Boston Globe sports columnist Dan Shaughnessy joins WBUR's Morning Edition to weigh in on the blockbuster trade that's sending Celtics star Jaylen Brown to the Philadelphia 76ers.

Merriam-Webster's Word of the Day for July 1, 2026 is: nabob • NAY-bahb • noun A nabob is a very rich or important person. // The upscale hotel downtown is a popular meeting spot for the city's corporate nabobs. See the entry > Examples: “NBA nabobs were dismayed by the player empowerment era, where players dictated trades or abandoned teams via free agency.” — Christopher L. Gasper, The Boston Globe, 26 Jan. 2025 Did you know? In India's Mogul Empire, founded in the 16th century, provincial governors carried the Urdu title of nawāb. In 1612, Captain Robert Coverte published a report of his “discovery” of “the Great Mogoll, a prince not till now knowne to our English nation.” The Captain informed the English-speaking world that “An earle is called a Nawbob,” thereby introducing the English version of the word. Nabob, as it later came to be spelled, gained its extended sense of “a prominent person” in the 18th century, when it was applied sarcastically to British officials of the East India Company returning home after amassing great wealth in Asia. But the word was most famously used by Vice President Spiro Agnew, in a 1970 speech written by William Safire, when he referred to critical members of the news media as “nattering nabobs of negativism.”

Last week, 38-year-old convicted rapist Nicholas Rossi died in a Utah hospital while under police custody. ­ Rossi (born Nicholas Alahverdian) operated under several aliases, including Arthur Knight, purportedly an orphan from Ireland. ­ He was first reported dead six years ago, with a Boston Globe obituary among the write-ups. But he wasn't actually deceased. He was alive and very much aware that he was on the FBI's radar. ­ Having fled to Scotland, Rossi became the subject of an Interpol Red Notice and increased media attention, with interviews and identities colliding as his web of lies was exposed. ­ “Nicholas Rossi was clever, but then he was very stupid in other ways,” says investigative journalist and podcaster Jane MacSorley, who has worked on the story since the beginning of 2022. ­ On this episode of The Indo Daily, host Fionnán Sheahan is joined by MacSorley, who details her own encounter with Nicholas Rossi and explores the numerous complications and contradictions of his life. ­ The Indo Daily is part of the Trust Project.

Merriam-Webster's Word of the Day for June 28, 2026 is: gainsay • gayn-SAY • verb To gainsay something is to deny or disagree with it, or to show or say that it is not true. Gainsay is a formal word usually used in negative statements. // Although the defendant initially denied involvement in the incident, there was no gainsaying the evidence that the prosecutor presented at the trial. See the entry > Examples: “Whatever you think of it, there's no gainsaying the fact that ‘The Sound of Music' is a remarkably durable vehicle. It's frequently produced, and suffered no lasting damage to its reputation from a live NBC performance in 2013 ...” — Don Aucoin, The Boston Globe, 9 Jan. 2026 Did you know? You might have trouble figuring out the meaning of gainsay if you're thinking of our modern word gain plus say. It should help to know that the gain part comes to us from the Old English word gēan-, meaning “against” or “in opposition to.” (The familiar verb gain comes from Anglo-French and is unrelated.) In Middle English, gēan- was joined to seyen (“to say”) to form gein-seyen, which led to the modern word gainsay. So when you see gainsay, think “to say against”—that is, “to deny” or “to contradict.”
