How can abstraction carry emotion, identity, and lived experience?In this episode of About Art, Heidi Zuckerman speaks with painter Katherine Bradford, whose luminous work bridges the personal, mythic, and communal. Bradford moved from Maine to New York in the 1980s as a single mother raising school-age twins and became part of the first wave of artists to shape the Williamsburg art community. After more than a decade navigating the Manhattan gallery world, her work has since been recognized internationally and is held in major museum collections.Their conversation spans Bradford's five-decade painting career, abstraction and figuration, color and process, studio practice, and the challenge of representing human emotion. They also discuss community, motherhood, the evolving art world, and why creativity remains fundamental to how we understand ourselves and one another.This is a conversation about painting as a lifelong practice—and art as a deeply human act.

Twice winner of the Pulitzer Prize, firstly in 1969 for The Armies of the Night and again in 1980 for The Executioner's Song, Norman Mailer's life comes as close as is possible to being the Great American Novel: beyond reason, inexplicable, wonderfully grotesque and addictive.The Naked and the Dead was acclaimed not so much for its intrinsic qualities but rather because it launched a brutally realistic sub-genre of military fiction - Catch 22 and MASH would not exist without it.  In Tough Guy: The Life of Norman Mailer (Bloomsbury, 2023), Richard Bradford combs through Mailer's personal letters - to lovers and editors - which appear to be a rehearsal for his career as a shifty literary narcissist, and which shape the characters of one of the most widely celebrated World War II novels. Bradford strikes again with a merciless biography in which diary entries, journal extracts and newspaper columns set the tone of this study of a controversial figure. From friendships with contemporaries such as James Baldwin, failed correspondences with Hemingway and the Kennedys, to terrible - but justified - criticism of his work by William Faulkner and Eleanor Roosevelt, this book gives a unique, snappy and convincing perspective of Mailer's ferocious personality and writings. Daniel Moran earned his B.A. and M.A. in English from Rutgers University and his Ph.D. in History from Drew University.

The world of prehospital medicine is constantly evolving, driven by new research, technological advancements, and a shared commitment to improving patient care and provider well-being. As EMS professionals, staying informed about these developments goes beyond a professional obligation; it is an opportunity to improve our practice, champion our profession, and ultimately make a greater impact on saving lives. In this article, we will explore some of the latest research findings that are reshaping our field, from workplace culture to cutting-edge technology.   The Culture of Care: Supporting EMS Providers Our work is demanding, both physically and emotionally, and the culture within our agencies plays a critical role in our well-being. A recent systematic review in the International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health revealed that many EMS providers avoid using organizational mental health services due to stigma and a perception that these programs lack genuine care. The study emphasizes the need for person-centered support and a cultural shift that normalizes seeking help as a sign of strength (Johnston et al., 2025). This cultural component also impacts retention. Another study in the same journal found that agencies with collaborative, team-oriented "clan" cultures had significantly lower turnover rates compared to those with rigid or chaotic structures. For leaders in EMS, fostering a supportive environment is not just about morale. It is a strategic imperative for retaining skilled clinicians (Kamholz et al., 2025).   Professional Recognition: Breaking Barriers Across the globe, paramedics are striving for recognition as integrated healthcare professionals. A qualitative study in BMC Health Services Research identified common barriers, including outdated legislation, inconsistent regulation, and insufficient funding. While the pandemic temporarily highlighted our capabilities, the momentum has waned. The study calls for targeted policy reforms and investments in education and leadership to solidify our role in the broader healthcare system (Feerick et al., 2025). Physical Demands and Injury Prevention The physical toll of our work is undeniable. A scoping review in Applied Ergonomics confirmed that musculoskeletal injuries, particularly to the back, are rampant in EMS. Tasks like handling stretchers and patient extractions are among the most strenuous. The review also highlighted fitness disparities, with male paramedics generally showing more strength but less flexibility than their female counterparts. These findings underscore the need for targeted injury prevention programs and realistic physical standards to keep us safe throughout our careers (Marsh et al., 2025).   Advancements in Cardiac Arrest Care When it comes to cardiac arrest, every second counts. A study in Resuscitation reinforced the value of bystander CPR, showing that dispatcher-assisted CPR significantly improves outcomes for untrained bystanders. For those with prior CPR training, acting independently yielded even better results. This highlights the importance of public CPR education alongside dispatcher support (Tagami et al., 2025). On the scene, our interventions matter immensely. Research in The Journal of Emergency Medicine found that for traumatic cardiac arrest patients, aggressive interventions like prehospital thoracostomy can be lifesaving (McWilliam et al., 2025). Meanwhile, a study in Critical Care Medicine revealed that extracorporeal CPR (ECPR) significantly improves outcomes for patients with refractory ventricular fibrillation, emphasizing the need for early transport to specialized centers.   The Role of Technology in EMS Technology is poised to revolutionize EMS, from dispatch to diagnosis. A study in The American Journal of Emergency Medicine demonstrated that large language models (LLMs) like ChatGPT could prioritize ambulance requests with remarkable accuracy, aligning with expert paramedic decisions over 76 percent of the time. This proof of concept suggests that AI could one day enhance resource allocation in dispatch centers (Shekhar et al., 2025). On the diagnostic front, machine learning is opening new possibilities. For example, a study in Bioengineering showed that analyzing photoplethysmography waveforms could estimate blood loss in trauma patients, offering a non-invasive way to guide resuscitation (Gonzalez et al., 2025). Similarly, research in Medical Engineering & Physics explored using multidimensional data to differentiate ischemic from hemorrhagic strokes in the field, potentially enabling more targeted prehospital care (Alshehri et al., 2025).   Addressing Disparities in Care Equity in EMS is a cornerstone of our profession, yet recent studies highlight troubling disparities. Research in JAMA Network Open found that ambulance offload times were significantly longer in communities with higher proportions of Black residents (Zhou et al., 2025). Another study in JAMA Surgery revealed that Black and Asian trauma patients were less likely to receive helicopter transport compared to White patients. These findings are a call to action for all of us to examine our systems and biases to ensure equitable care for every patient (Mpody et al., 2025).   Looking Ahead The research discussed here represents just a fraction of the advancements shaping EMS today. From improving workplace culture and injury prevention to leveraging AI and addressing systemic inequities, these findings have real-world implications for our protocols, training, and advocacy efforts. As EMS professionals, we have a responsibility to stay informed and apply these insights to our practice.

United States v. Steven Bradford

In this episode of the Skull Session Recruiting Podcast, Marc Givler and Juck Miletti discuss the signing of elite Louisiana safety Blaine Bradford, what he can bring to the Buckeyes, the difficulty of pulling him out of Baton Rouge, and much, much more.

In this episode, John Bradford, CEO of Pet Screening, ranked No. 879 on the Inc. 5000 in 2025. Joins Gene Hammett to talk about what it really takes to build a "category of one" business. Bradford shares how visionary leadership and relentless execution go hand in hand, why founders must be honest about the size of their total addressable market, and how underestimating demand can limit growth. He draws on Pet Screening's success in helping landlords manage pet policy compliance amid America's growing pet population, while also unpacking the importance of strong core values, genuine team engagement, and empowering individuals to contribute to sales in a collaborative culture. Along the way, Bradford reflects on learning from mistakes, taking full responsibility as a leader, and using real market feedback to sharpen strategy, offering practical, experience-driven insights for entrepreneurs focused on long-term growth and leadership. Episode Highlights & Time Stamps 3:01 The Birth of Pet Screening 6:18 Creating a Category of One 8:10 Common Mistakes in Creating a Category 10:49 The Essence of Relentless Execution 12:27 Core Values That Drive Success 14:36 Living Your Values in Practice 16:27 Lessons from Leadership Mistakes 19:18 Conclusion and Call to Action Building a Category of One Starts with the Market John Bradford, CEO of Pet Screening, joins Gene Hammett to discuss what it takes to build a true category-of-one business, starting with the importance of market size. Bradford stresses that even the best ideas fall flat if they do not address a meaningful total addressable market (TAM). He cautions entrepreneurs against underestimating market potential, noting that ideas aimed at small audiences often remain side projects rather than scalable companies. A strong vision must be matched with a market large enough to support long-term growth. Solving a Real Problem at Scale Bradford explains how Pet Screening emerged from his background in property management and technology, identifying a widespread problem landlords face in managing pet policies. With roughly 160 million pets in America and a growing number of pet-owning households, the demand is substantial. Pet Screening's software helps landlords ensure pet policy compliance while reducing fraudulent emotional support animal claims, positioning the platform as a trusted, nationwide solution in the housing industry. Visionary Leadership, Core Values, and Execution The conversation turns to leadership, where Bradford shares how strong core values and daily execution shape company culture. He emphasizes that values must be lived, not just stated, and highlights Pet Screening's focus on equal opportunity, making an impact, and keeping work enjoyable. Bradford also underscores relentless execution, encouraging every team member to understand and support the product, including participating in sales. This shared ownership drives efficiency, creativity, and alignment across the organization. Learning from Mistakes and Listening to the Market Bradford openly discusses the role of mistakes in entrepreneurship, advocating for accountability at the leadership level rather than blame within the team. This approach builds trust and encourages innovation. He also highlights the importance of market feedback, urging founders to seek honest input beyond friends and family to refine ideas and validate demand. The episode concludes with practical insights on how visionary leadership, execution, feedback, and ownership intersect to drive sustainable growth, reinforcing that leadership and scaling are inseparable. Key Takeaways Vision alone is not enough successful category-of-one companies pair bold leadership with disciplined execution. Market size matters; even strong ideas struggle without a sufficiently large total addressable market (TAM). Solving a real, widespread problem creates momentum and positions a business for scalable growth. Core values must be demonstrated through daily actions to foster trust, engagement, and accountability. Involving the entire team in understanding and supporting sales strengthens alignment and execution. Effective leaders own mistakes, creating a culture where learning and innovation thrive. Market feedback is a strategic asset and should come from diverse, unbiased sources. Long-term growth is driven by the integration of leadership, culture, and continuous refinement of strategy.

Our listeners send in thoughtful questions, and we dive into them without preparation or prior review. This way, our responses stay spontaneous and authentic. Today's questions come from Bradford and Port Carlisle—two communities in Northern England with rich histories and unique local perspectives.Andrew, from Bradford, England sent us this - “Are we too focused on Net Zero etc? Why don't we drill our own oil, instead of importing and sustaining economies elsewhere? Aren't we at risk of falling behind?”William highlights that oil extraction requires years of infrastructure development, making it unsuitable for immediate energy needs. He advocates prioritizing renewables, arguing fossil fuel dependence risks long-term disadvantage. Stuart counters that relying on foreign technology, such as Danish wind turbines, could weaken the UK's energy independence unless domestic innovation is fostered. William stresses planning for the next century, pointing to offshore wind as a strategic investment given Britain's coastal geography. Stuart notes some politicians dismiss net zero as “net stupid,” while William observes that short electoral cycles often hinder long-term policy, urging a broader vision beyond four- to five-year terms.Steven, from Port Carlisle, England sent in this question - “Charlie Kirk's killing. Are those who say that his death was about a man exercising his right to free speech and saying what he wants, leaving us to think more deeply about our own views right? Or are others who discuss other contributing factors right? Religion, Debate, Guns, Antagonism, Politics, Division, Conspiracies, For and Against, Disquiet etc etc etc”.Stuart reflects on whether Charlie Kirk's death stemmed from free speech or political division, concluding multiple influences were at play. He argues that freedom of speech is not absolute, noting the individual involved was both intellectual and religious, and sees the event as a symptom of wider societal fractures in America. Stuart admits limited engagement with Kirk's content, focusing instead on psychology and body language to assess truthfulness. William, aware of Kirk's presence online, suspects his approach was designed to provoke reactions and generate revenue. He cautions that expressing opinions can trigger extreme consequences, though he did not follow Kirk closely. Stuart proposes examining what freedom of speech truly means, distinguishing between genuine restrictions and social politeness, and questioning whether a universal definition exists.What do you make of this discussion?

In this eye-opening episode of The Backyard Naturalists, Debbie and Laurie sit down with Benjy Strope, Private Lands Management Biologist for the North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission, to explore the sneaky, persistent, and surprisingly complex world of invasive plants. Inspired by Benjy's article "Quiet Invasives," this conversation gets right to the root of how invasive species spread, why they're so hard to control, and what homeowners, land managers, and nature lovers can realistically do to fight back. Benjy explains why invasive plants don't follow the "rules" we imagine for our landscapes, how seeds hitchhike on everything from shoes to dogs to truckloads of dirt, and why even well-intentioned gardeners may unknowingly contribute to the problem. From statewide offenders like mimosa, Japanese stiltgrass, kudzu, Bradford pear, and Bermuda grass, to emerging threats like Japanese knotweed and fig buttercup, he breaks down what makes each plant so troublesome—and why identification and planning are essential first steps. The discussion covers effective control methods (including when herbicides are the responsible choice), the myth of "one-and-done" removal, the importance of seed banks and site-specific conditions, and the value of choosing hardy native alternatives like blanketflower and coreopsis. Whether you've battled invasives in your backyard, spotted them in local parks, or want to protect native habitat in your community, this episode offers an honest, practical look at the ongoing fight to restore and preserve natural ecosystems. It's informative, candid, and full of the kind of grounded, real-world expertise that helps listeners take meaningful action—one plant at a time.

In Episode 79, Mark Lutter sits down with serial AI founder and investor Bradford Cross, now CEO of Alpha Cities, to explore what happens when a Silicon Valley systems thinker takes on the world's most complex product: government.Bradford argues that government should be treated as a product—one that often performs poorly, iterates slowly, and lacks the discipline of customer-centric design. Drawing from two decades of building and exiting AI companies (including powering LinkedIn's newsfeed, deploying AI in big banks, and pioneering early machine-learning startups), he explains why governance is the ultimate systems challenge.They dig into how the Silicon Valley playbook must be adapted—not imported—to work with sovereign states; why autonomy without integration (as seen in Honduras' ZEDEs) is a dead end; how Alpha Cities structures zone laws, joint ventures, and regulatory sandboxes; and why the capital stack for new cities must move from friendly tech capital → industry anchors → sovereign wealth.Bradford also shares a candid look at the overwhelming operational reality of building cities from scratch—and why the US should view charter cities as the private-sector alternative to China's Belt and Road.

The lesson is simple: socialism fails not because of bad people, but because it denies human nature and God's design.Learn more at https://www.standingforfreedom.com/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/freedomcenterlu/ Twitter: https://x.com/freedomcenterluInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/freedomcenterlu/

In the early 1600s, an orphaned teenager named William Bradford joined a clandestine congregation of passionate Puritan worshipers in the village of Scrooby, England. Every Sunday, he met in secret with the radical group known as Separatists, who believed that the Church of England was corrupt, and that the only way forward was to break with it entirely. But defiance of the Church of England was a serious crime, and Bradford and his fellow worshippers faced harassment and persecution.So they resolved to leave England altogether and flee to Holland, where they could worship in peace. It was the start of a long and turbulent odyssey that would end on the rocky shores of New England, with the founding of Plymouth Colony.
