This can be a weird, difficult world, filled with injustice, inequality, and bad people doing bad things…we're always up against things like racism, women's rights, labour rights, the plights of marginalized people, class struggle, the disenfranchised, various social movements—the list of righteous causes and grievances is pretty much endless. And sometimes, you just gotta fight back…but how?... Not all occasions called for armed insurrections and assassinations. One way is through music…come up with something topical and specific, put it all to music, and you have a chance of getting your message to a lot of people…and because it's music, you might be able to reach those who might not otherwise be aware of the problem or understand what the problem is. This music isn't confined to a specific people or group or genre or era…you can be loud and angry and filled with the greatest moral virtues screamed at the top of your lungs. But you don't have to be in-your-face about it…your messaging can be subtle while still maintaining all the necessary effectiveness, rage and authenticity. Such songs have a long and fascinating history that goes back way further than you might realize…and these songs are everywhere today, although you may not realize it. This is a brief history of protest music, part 1 Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Every Christian holds a Bible, but few stop to ask why they trust the text in their hands. Questions about manuscripts, translators, editions, and revisions are often treated as technical matters best left to specialists. Yet they carry enormous implications: Is the Bible I hold the very word of God—truly infallible and inerrant?For the preservationist, the story of the English Bible is not one of constant loss and recovery, but of transmission, reception, and faithful use within the life of the church—giving believers confidence in what has been handed down.In this episode of the Postscript, I'm joined by Dr. Jim Alter, pastor of Grace Baptist Church in Sidney, Ohio, and co-founder of Ancient Baptist Press. Dr. Jim is also the founder, curator, and educator behind Purified Seven Times, a traveling exhibit that teaches the history of Bible translation into English with special attention to the preservation of God's word. Through pastoral ministry, publishing, and hands-on historical education, Dr. Jim helps Christians think carefully—and faithfully—about where their Bible came from and why that history still matters today.Visit https://www.gracebaptistsidney.com/exhibit to learn more about Purified Seven TimesVisit https://lfbi.org/learnmore
Grab your capes and a box of tissues, because Pop Culture Weekly is going full Gothic! This week, Kyle McMahon is sinking his teeth into director Luc Besson's latest masterpiece, Dracula: A Love Tale with conversaitons from Luc himself and stars Caleb Landry Jones & Zoe Bleu. Forget the 1931 foreign menace or the sweaty, sensual Hammer versions of the '50s. We're moving past the "Victorian paranoia with cheekbones" and diving straight into the "emotionally wrecked man-vampire" era. Kyle explores how Dracula has evolved from a real estate-obsessed monster into a guy who has crossed oceans of time just to be ghosted by his own mortality.In this episode:The History of the Fang: Kyle breaks down the evolution of the world's most famous vampire, from Bela Lugosi to the "flexible" 2020 version who absorbs skills like a supernatural vacuum.A Miracle in Progress: Legendary director Luc Besson joins the show to explain why he chose a 400-year-old love story over generic monster mayhem. He also shares his secret to filmmaking: it takes two years to make a good movie and only two minutes to "f*** it up."The World's Loneliest Gentleman: Stars Caleb Landry Jones and Zoë Bleu stop by to talk about humanizing a monster. Caleb discusses being a "sponge" for Besson's specific directions, while Zoë reveals why this version of Dracula is actually—wait for it—a total gentleman.Relatable Undead: Kyle admits that while he wouldn't wait 400 years for a person, he might consider it for some really high-quality tacos.Whether you're a hardcore horror fan or just someone who's "emotionally available to be hurt" by a Gothic romance, this episode is mandatory listening.Dracula just wanted to be loved... and honestly, don't we all?|Dig furhter into Dracula with my video A Brief History of Dracula - And What He Says About Us" here: https://youtu.be/EjrHKFUf_gAIf you dig the show, subscribe, rate, and share - and tell your friend who's always stealing your streaming passwords.
A history of ransomware is more than just dates and names—it's the story of how criminals evolved from mailing infected floppy disks in 1989 to running billion-dollar enterprises that cripple entire organizations. On this episode of The Backup Wrap-up, I sit down with Dr. Mike Saylor, my co-author on "Learning Ransomware Response and Recovery," to trace this evolution from the AIDS Trojan to today's sophisticated double extortion attacks.We talk about how ransomware went from requiring physical distribution to scaling globally through the internet, how cryptocurrency made anonymous payment possible, and why the shift from tape to disk backups created vulnerabilities that attackers now exploit first. You'll learn about the wild west days when IT focused on building systems without understanding how bad guys attack, the emergence of ransomware-as-a-service that democratized cybercrime, and why modern attacks target your backups before encrypting your production systems.If you've ever wondered why backup immutability matters or how we got to a point where ransomware is inevitable rather than hypothetical, this episode connects those dots. Dr. Mike and I also discuss why having backups is still critical even with double extortion threats, and what you need to know about defending your backup systems in today's threat environment.Chapter Markers:00:00:00 - Introduction00:01:19 - Welcome and Guest Introduction00:02:19 - Curtis's First Ransomware Memory00:03:40 - The AIDS Trojan: First Ransomware (1989)00:04:42 - The Wild West Era: Late 1990s Security00:08:05 - Y2K and Budget Shifts00:11:26 - The Transition from Tape to Disk Backups00:15:45 - How Disk Backups Created Vulnerabilities00:19:30 - The Rise of Cryptolocker and Bitcoin00:23:15 - Ransomware as a Service Emerges00:27:40 - WannaCry and NotPetya00:31:20 - Double Extortion: The Game Changer00:35:10 - Why Backups Still Matter00:37:55 - Should You Just Pay the Ransom?00:40:01 - Defending Your Backup System

Today's guest may be one of the hardest working guests I've ever had. Please welcome, straight from Normandy, France, Stephane Schuck. Stephane talks about the music that inspired him as a kid. It isn't your standard rock and roll background. Maybe part of that is growing up in France, maybe part is just Stephane's unique angle on music. He formed a group that eventually came to known as The Salt Collective. But that isn't his day job. Instead of music, Stephane went into medicine. Both hemispheres of his brain are constantly working! He talks about working with some of his heroes with his own music, changing his band's name, and what happened when he was diagnosed with leukemia. The Salt Collective has a new album out called A Brief History of Blindness. It features Mike Mills, Aimee Mann, Pat Sansone, and former podcast guests Chris Stamey and Django Haskins (among others). It's a wonderful album that you can stream in the usual places or buy it on Bandcamp or thesaltcollective.propellersoundrecordings.com. Follow the group @thesaltcollective on Instagram & Facebook.

In this episode, we take a deep dive into A Brief History of Ancient Israel by Victor H. Matthews — a concise but thought-provoking survey of one of the most complex civilizations in human history.Rather than retelling biblical stories at face value, Matthews asks a harder question: what can we actually know about ancient Israel when we compare the Bible with archaeology, ancient Near Eastern records, and historical method? From the patriarchs and the Exodus to the rise of the monarchy, the divided kingdoms, exile, and return, this episode explores how history, memory, and identity intertwine.We discuss: • Whether the patriarchs and Exodus reflect history, collective memory, or both • How Israel likely emerged from within Canaanite society • What archaeology really says about David, Solomon, and the monarchy • How trauma, exile, and foreign empires reshaped Israelite religion • Why ancient Israel survives not through power, but through text and traditionKeywords: Judaism, Old Testament, the Bible, history, and books Please consider supporting my patreon.

Immigration and Customs Enforcement isn't some storied government agency from the 19th century. ICE was invented back in 2003 — but now it has a multi-billion-dollar budget and many officers who are undertrained at best. So, how did we get here? To find out, we spoke to Garrett Graff. He's a historian and journalist who has covered federal law enforcement for 20 years.And in headlines, President Donald Trump threatens fresh tariffs on America's NATO allies over Greenland, the Pentagon ordered 1,500 National Guard troops to prepare for possible deployment to Minnesota, and a seat on Trump's Board of Peace reportedly has a $1 billion price tag.Show Notes: Check out Garrett's work – https://www.garrettgraff.com/Call Congress – 202-224-3121Subscribe to the What A Day Newsletter – https://tinyurl.com/3kk4nyz8What A Day – YouTube – https://www.youtube.com/@whatadaypodcastFollow us on Instagram – https://www.instagram.com/crookedmedia/For a transcript of this episode, please visit crooked.com/whataday Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

When a Kentucky slave master beat his furniture maker to death over a handcrafted chest, the other slaves vowed revenge — and over the next century, seventeen people connected to that chest would die. | #WDRadio WEEKEND OF JAN, 2026==========HOUR ONE: A Malaysian Haunted House To Sell *** The brutal death of an African slave brings a curse upon the wooden chest he was ordered to construct. (The Conjure Chest) *** In Tuscaloosa, Alabama there is a home built by slaves that is considered the most haunted in Alabama. (The Haunting of Drish House) *** Drivers are reporting strange, ghostly orbs following them on dark roads. (Haunted Roads and Spook Lights) ==========HOUR TWO: More than a hundred years ago, reports described it as “the most weird and gruesome apartment in the world.” Why display an entire room full of grotesque items and open it to the public? (New York Charnel House) *** Kell's Irish Pub in Seattle has a creepy vibe to it, even if the displays and decorations inside aren't meant to be. Perhaps that's because the building started its life as a massive mortuary. (The Beaux Arts Butterworth Building) *** Early one February morning in 1897, John Mars jumped out of bed from a sound sleep, and while the smell of breakfast cooking downstairs wafted up to the second level of the house, he inexplicably grabbed his pistol and went on a shooting spree of his own family. (The Act of a Mad Man) *** A four-year-old has a paranormal experience… and the man he grew into over 60 years later is still unsure of what happened to him. (The Lady Laughing In My Bedroom)==========SUDDEN DEATH OVERTIME: Dang Tan Ngoc is a well-known conman who has used the names of multiple dead soldiers to con veteran groups into giving him money. One identity he stole created a fascinating but dark story. (The Strange Return Of Master Sgt. John Hartley Robertson) *** A woman comes home to find her visiting sister murdered – and police were convinced she was the one who committed the crime. So what went wrong with the case to allow her to get away with it? (Did Ida Do It?) *** A bordello, pizza, and a haunting. You can find them all at the Red Onion Saloon. (Red Onion Saloon) *** Plus, I'll share two Creepypastas from Weirdo family members. “A Brief History of Egberting” from Louise Latham, and “Dreamality“ from Kara Raisch.==========SOURCES AND REFERENCES FROM TONIGHT'S SHOW:“The Lady Laughing In My Bedroom” by Geof James: https://tinyurl.com/yd4uddnx“New York Charnel House” posted at: https://tinyurl.com/ybsfs68x“The Beaux Arts Butterworth Building” by Meg van Huygen: https://tinyurl.com/y7h2mkyr“The Act of a Madman” by Robert Wilhelm: https://tinyurl.com/y9757b7d“A Malaysian Haunted House to Sell” by Brandon Grimes for Paranormality Magazine: http://weirddarkness.com/magazine“The Conjure Chest” for The Unexplained Mysteries: https://tinyurl.com/m9w2ffg“The Haunting of Drish House” by Amanda Penn for Horror Media: https://tinyurl.com/y8bovtwp“Haunted Roads and Spook Lights” by Brent Swancer for Mysterious Universe: https://tinyurl.com/ydfwg875“The Strange Return Of Master Sgt.

In this THINQ talk, A Brief History of Renewal, we step back to see how renewal has surfaced again and again during moments of tension, fatigue, and longing within the church. By tracing patterns from the early church to modern awakenings, the talk reveals that renewal rarely looks the same, but often begins with humility, honesty, and a return to first loves. Rather than chasing the next movement, this conversation invites thoughtful discernment—paying attention to how God is already at work and considering what faithfulness looks like in our time.

What can Film Noir teach us about character arcs and audience engagement? In this two part series, Mel and Chas use Noir (the genre) as a lens to interrogate flawed characters. How can characters doing reprehensible things still engage audiences? How can you ensure representation isn't endorsement? And whether these characters undergo transformative arcs, or simply reveal their true natures? Part 1 focuses on two (now classic) noirs: DOUBLE INDEMNITY and THE LONG GOODBYE. While Part 2 looks at two more contemporary examples DEVIL IN A BLUE DRESs and WOMAN OF THE HOUR. As always: SPOILERS ABOUND and all copyright material used under fair use for educational purposes.

How far could you go if you believed in yourself?Katherine Johnson's memoir My Remarkable Journey is more than a space-age origin story; it is a study in how confidence, education, and community can shape history. Early on, the memoir reads like a love letter to learning. Katherine's parents, one generation removed from slavery, push her toward college with sacrifices and a father's mantra etched in memory: “You're as good as anyone, but no better.” The book also shows how mentors matter. She highlights the teachers who saw a research mathematician before she did, a one-student class in analytic geometry of space, and a culture of high expectations that asked Black students to be twice as good. It's inspiring and sobering. Proof that talent needs access, and access is a policy choice. We talk about “painful progress,” how proximity humanizes, and why respectful, fact-based dialogue changes minds more reliably than outrage. Through grief—losing her first husband—Katherine keeps moving, anchoring herself in work and family. Her moon-shot math resembles a life philosophy: aim where the future will be, not where the present stands.

Christmas is here, and after a brief hiatus due to a hectic workload, Chris Fernandez-Packham returns with the traditional festive special. This year, we raise a glass to the Victorian origins of the cocktail—a “Golden Age” of social and technological evolution that saw the transition from traditional British punches to the precision of the American “sensation-drink”. From the “Ice King” who shipped New England ponds to Calcutta to the middle-class women of Chicago claiming public spaces one Manhattan at a time, we explore how spirits, science, and social change collided. We conclude, as always, with a classic Victorian ghost story: The Shadow in the Corner by M. E. Braddon. Key Topics Covered: The Original Manuals: Comparing Jerry Thomas's legendary Bar-Tender's Guide (1862) with the defensive British response in Drinking Cups & Their Custom (1869). The Science of Bitters: The medicinal origins and industrialization of Angostura and Peychaud's bitters. Technological Breakthroughs: How the Coffey Still revolutionized spirit consistency and Frederic Tudor created the global ice trade. Cocktails and Gender: The role of the cocktail in helping middle-class women claim public spaces in 19th-century Chicago tea rooms. New Orleans Chemistry: The multicultural melting pot that gave us the Sazerac, the Absinthe Frappé, and the labor-intensive Ramos Gin Fizz. Royal Habits: Queen Victoria's daily Scotch-and-wine habit and her curious refusal to use ice. Festive Ghost Story: A reading and analysis of The Shadow in the Corner by M. E. Braddon.

This one is a bit different and I admit that. But I like opportunities to speak with incredibly intelligent people so I took it. I sit down with Arman Verjee today and discuss a book he is finishing up: A Brief History of Financial Bubbles. The conversation is much more of a back and forth than an interview. But I think our discussion of the Dotcom Bubble and its application to the present AI circumstances is worth the listen.You can preorder Aman's book HERE.Western Civ 2.0
