If you live in Allegheny County, your taxes went up — slightly — this year, to help pay for all the services we rely on. But the extra money isn't going to be enough. A recent controller report found our finances are "unsustainable" long term, especially with looming budget cuts from the federal government. Host Megan Harris is sitting down with our top official, County Executive Sara Innamorato, to ask what it's been like to plan around the chaos, discuss her biggest achievements over the past year — including affordable housing and financial help for first-time homebuyers — and one idea she spotted in Wisconsin that she really wants to bring to the Burgh.

(pronounced Birr Island) This long, slow Devon day, is drawing softly to a close. Looking out to sea, the sky beyond has already fallen velvet black. It's midnight. Scattered lamps shine on Burgh Island. It looks from here more like a dark thicket, afloat on a vast water field. With glow worms, hiding. The tide's in now. Closed around the island. Encircled it, with rich undulating sound. Filled up the wide sandy beach, for as far as the eye can see, with swirling shallows. Ankle deep. As the sea meets itself coming in across the causeway, it splashes up fingers of crisp white spray. Some gulls are still aloft. High wheeling, but mostly quiet. Silently weaving between the stars. Riding on the diurnal winds. the off-shore breeze, or land breeze, created by the land-sea temperature contrast that happens at this time of night. * As with all Lento episodes it can take several minutes for your listening brain to properly switch into the soundscape. This one hour segment is from an overnight recording we made in April. The Lento box is perched on a second floor balcony looking straight down the causeway towards Burgh island, which is only about 200 yards from the box. Due to the topography of the beach and how it contours around the island, the sound-shape of the sea is interestingly different to other coastal locations we've captured. The breakers form and gather spatially, often very slowly, with long periods of swirling eddies in between. High tide is reached towards the end of this segment. Moderately strong wind gusts sometimes buffer the microphones. As a recording location it is exposed. We've applied some spot rumble reduction when this happens just to improve the experience for headphone / Airpod listeners.
The offseason is heating up!

Carl Gustav Jung hat als Psychiater Weltruhm erlangt. Sein wissenschaftlicher Eifer galt der Erforschung des Unbewussten, der Seele. Und der Königsweg dahin waren die Träume. Wer war C.G. Jung und was bleibt von ihm? Olivia Röllin im Gespräch mit dem Psychologen und Wissenschaftsautor Steve Ayan. Am 26. Juli 2025 jährt sich der Geburtstag von Carl Gustav Jung zum 150. Mal. Jung, geboren 1875 in Kesswil TG, war ein wegweisender Psychiater und Psychoanalytiker, dessen Theorien und Konzepte die moderne Psychologie tiefgreifend beeinflusst haben. Der langjährige Wegbegleiter von Sigmund Freud und Begründer der analytischen Psychologie entwickelte eine Archetypenlehre und prägte Begriffe wie das «kollektive Unbewusste» oder «Individuation», womit er einen Prozess meint, der einen Menschen zu dem mache, was er eigentlich ist. Wie Sigmund Freud betonte auch Jung die Bedeutung von Träumen. Mit seinen Schriften und seiner Forschung am Burghölzli hat der Schweizer Arzt nicht nur die Psychologie revolutioniert, sondern hat auch die Literatur, Kunst und Philosophie beeinflusst. Im Gespräch mit Olivia Röllin erklärt der Psychologe Steve Ayan, wie die Psychologie zur prägenden Wissenschaft des 20. Jahrhunderts wurde, welche Bedeutung C.G. Jung dabei hatte, wo sein Einfluss heute noch zu finden ist und was es mit dem Boom von Psychologiepodcasts und Selbsterkennungskursen auf sich hat.

Orthodox-christelijke organisaties zijn nog altijd actief betrokken bij de steun aan Israëls illegale nederzettingen. Uit onderzoek van Investico blijkt dat deze christelijke weldoeners zelfs bereid zijn financiële steun te verlenen voor de levering van wapens. Gedreven door de Bijbelse overtuiging dat het land door God aan de joden is beloofd, zien zij het als hun taak om hieraan bij te dragen. Deze steun is echter in strijd met het Nederlandse, Europese en internationale beleid ten aanzien van de Palestijnse kwestie.Onderzoeksplatform Investico dook, samen met BOOS van BNNVARA en het Nederlands Dagblad, in deze gevoelige materie. Naast archiefonderzoek reisden de journalisten ook zelf af naar de Westelijke Jordaanoever om hun bevindingen met eigen ogen te toetsen.In deze aflevering spreekt presentator Kees van den Bosch met Investico-journalisten Marieke Rotman, Romy van der Burgh en Allart van der Woude. Ze vertellen over hun ontmoeting met de openhartige Palestijnse olijfboer Jamal, de momenten waarop ze noodgedwongen undercover moesten gaan en de opmerkelijke samenwerking met het christelijke Nederlands Dagblad.Bekijk de aflevering van BOOS.

Mullsy is stunned we haven't heard from Adrian in The Burgh due to Russell Wilson signing with the Giants. Chris is tired of the football aggregators. The Steelers attended the Ohio State pro day (eyeball emoji) and checked out a few players that could be on their radar. Should Emeka Egbuka still be in their sights as we get closer to the draft? If the Steelers take a mid-round QB, will it be Will Howard? We think it's smart to take a chance on an OSU WR if you can, but only if you aren't feeling a DL. 93.7 The Fan Sports Director Jeff Hathhorn joined the show. Jeff doesn't think Aaron Rodgers was the plan all along, especially after Art Rooney stated he wanted one of the two guys from last season. Jeff talked about the departure of Justin Fields and how they may have been felt in the locker room. Is the Rodgers tape as bad as we think from last season? The Steelers were watching Emeka Egbuka today – should they be interested in him at 21st overall? We reacted to Russell Wilson already saying he expects to be the starter in New York. Jeff gave his quick Pirates season prediction. Pirates insider Noah Hiles from the PG joined the show. Noah joined us to mostly tell us about his battles with chickens outside of his Air Bnb in Little Havana as he gets set for the Pirates to open their season. He said it has become a massive problem with eggs being laid and such. Noah said it's been a tough day dealing with the issues in Miami, but he is learning a new language in the process. Noah also said he was warned about crocodiles in the area. Noah gave his outlook on the Pirates' season and highlighted the pitching – saying it's a much deeper crop than 2024. He thinks we can see Bubba Chandler before Jared Jones makes his return.

PART 2 of a 2-part BEST OF compilation of Karl Pilkington's ROCKBUSTERS (a cheap knockoff of Blockbusters) from the Xfm Ricky Gervais Show with Stephen Merchant. Not only was this one of Karl's longest running features (along with Monkey News), but it was also voted by fans as his greatest XFM feature of all time. Karl Pilkington gives a cryptic clue (it's usually nonsense) and the initials of a famous band or artist (he sometimes gets the initials wrong), and listeners either call, or as the feature developed (unless they were experiencing technical difficulties), email in their answers. The winner gets an arbitrary assortment of tat, often including a pointless DVD seemingly chosen at random from the bargain bucket. This 2-part BEST OF ROCKBUSTERS Compilation is based on the comprehensive 6-part ROCKBUSTERS compilation of every Rockbuster segment from the Xfm Ricky Gervais Show (released previously). CHAPTERS: Cilla Black, Small Faces, New Order (0:00) Bryan Ferry, Del Amitri, Chris de Burgh (8:02) Tony Bennett, The Darkness, Adam Faith (17:25) Alex Parks, Aztec Camera, Phil Collins (24:45) Gareth Gates, Texas, Delta Goodrem (31:45) Nik Kershaw, Soft Cell, OutKast (36:14) The Divine Comedy, Electric Six, Erasure (42:50) Courtney Love, The Bravery, The Monkees (48:31) Donovan, Yoko Ono, McFly (56:16) Lisa Stansfield, The Buggles, Amy Winehouse (1:03:26)
