On July 5, 2000, Ricardo Aguilera was shot and wounded in a gang related drive-by shooting in Los Angeles, California. Several witnesses identified 25-year-old Rafael Madrigal Jr. in a photo lineup as either the shooter or driver of the car involved. Those witnesses testified against Rafael at trial. Rafael, who maintained his innocence throughout the ordeal, had been at work at Proactive Packaging, a 50-minute drive away, at the time of the shooting. A co-worker could have confirmed his alibi, and his boss could have testified that he was certain Madrigal was at work because he was the only one who knew how to operate one of the machines in the production line. But Rafael’s defense attorney only called a single co-worker to the stand at the trial, and did not present a recording of Rafael’s co-defendant admitting that Rafael was not involved. On January 18, 2002, a jury convicted Rafael of attempted murder and he was sentenced to 53 years to life in prison. https://www.wrongfulconvictionpodcast.com/with-jason-flom Wrongful Conviction is a production of Lava for Good™ Podcasts in association with Signal Co.

Once again, FCC Commissioner Brendan Carr and his bad ideas about free speech have rankled a late night host. And once again, Nilay and David talk through what the equal-time rule actually means, why organizations keep caving, and why it's apparently up to people like Stephen Colbert and Jimmy Kimmel to fight back.

President Trump tried to overturn the 2020 presidential election, and he's already laying the groundwork to undermine our confidence in the midterm elections. Kara brings together three experts to map out how Trump is trying to tilt the November elections before a single ballot is cast, and what he might do during and after election day to maintain his grip on power. She's joined by: Natalie Adona, the registrar of voters for Marin County, California. Adona is the co-author of the books “Understanding the Voter Experience” and “Stewards of Democracy,” and a contributing author to the recently published book, “Local Election Administrators in the United States: The Frontline of Democracy."  Susan B. Glasser is a staff writer at The New Yorker magazine. She writes a weekly column on life in Washington and is a host of the Political Scene podcast. Her recent article on this topic, “Donald Trump Already Knows the 2026 Election Is ‘Rigged,'” is essential reading for those who want to understand the threat Trump poses.  And Nate Persily is the James B. McClatchy Professor of Law at Stanford Law School and the co-director of the Stanford Law AI Initiative. He is an expert on election law and redistricting, and he's the co-author of the leading election law casebook, “The Law of Democracy.”  Questions? Comments?

“God could not be everywhere, so he created Mothers.” This adage could not ring more true when it comes to the life of C.J. Taylor. Her life story could be made into an Oscar-winning biopic, and believe me, it's just a matter of time. She is a divorced single mom of three, an attorney, and a football coach with over 20 years of experience - she is the first female coach in the Snoop Dogg's youth football league, is the Former Director of Football Operations and Assistant Coach at Los Angeles Southwest College, and was an the Junior Varsity HEAD COACH and Assistant Coach on Varsity at Verbum Dei High School, a private all boys school in southern California. She has generated more than 45 millions dollars, sending hundreds of student-athletes to college on scholarships with over 300 NCAA programs including with Marist College, Univ. of Texas, TCU, Vanderbilt, FAMU, LSU, CAL, Boise State, USC, UCLA, Notre Dame, Syracuse and more. She has single handedly raised three tremendously successful children: her daughter Mi-Calynn is a California State Licensed Nurse who is on the front line during the COVID pandemic. Caylin is a 2017 Rhodes Scholar, 2014 Fulbright Scholar, D-1 Student-Athlete and graduate of Texas Christian University, 2019 graduate of Oxford University, a current PhD candidate, and author of the NY Times bestselling memoir, A Dream Too Big. Last but not least Chase Moore, an Archer Fellow, Children's Defense Fund recipient, and a recent D1Student-Athlete at the University of Texas at Austin victor of the 2019 Sugar Bowl, and member of the AFCA Allstate Good Works Team. Though the family has witnessed many glory days, life has not been easy. As written in an ESPN profile by Senior Writer Adam Rittenberg, CJ shares, "We used to have a five-bath, four-bedroom house and seven vehicles. We had what looked like the Cosby life. It was like a Monet: From a distance, it looked beautiful, but up close, it was all messed up." Inside those walls, C.J.'s now ex-husband, Louis Moore, was psychologically abusive toward her. She twice saw him physically abuse Caylin, who was just 2 at the time. In 2000, she left him, taking the children to live with her mother in Carson, on the border of Compton. She filed for divorce but still feared for their safety. She always told her kids: “We may live in the hood, but the hood doesn't live in us.”In 2004, she went to the hospital for heart surgery and came back in even worse shape. She was assaulted while being sedated, and later slipped into a depression. In 2009, her ex-husband was convicted of murder. He had a drunken argument with his girlfriend and fatally shot her with a rifle. After weeks of her kids feeding her and bathing her, her middle child told her, “Get up, Mom. You've got to live. You've got three kids. We need you!” That's exactly what she did and she continues to give every bit of her soul to her children every single day. Today, I am honored to welcome CJ Taylor and her youngest son Chase Moore to the show. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

This week, comic shop employees from all over gather in Glendale, California. It's time for ComicsPRO, the annual event designed to “promote the progress and development of comic book retailers and improve the condition of the comic book industry.” It's one of our favorite times of the year as we eagerly sit by our computers waiting for announcements from publishers and the good word from our LCS pals. Sadly, we cannot be in person this year, but that doesn't mean we can't bring you exclusive information. Thanks to writer Zack Kaplan, who's on the ground at ComicsPRO, we're there by proxy. And he's dishing on his big announcement, extending his partnership with Dark Horse Comics, bringing us the final chapter in Kill All Immortals and two more new titles, Only The Savage Are Left and The Smart Division. Kill All Immortals is a nifty, nasty look at the boot standing on our necks: the billionaire class. The comic imagines a universe where various immortal clans have gobbled up control of the economy, but one is starting to crumble from within. Frey Asvald, daughter of Erik the Red, can no longer sit idly as her family consumes the planet. She wants to help us poor mortals, but in doing so, she exposes herself and others to tremendous violence. And can you really keep your hands clean when attempting global, capital G, Good? On this week's podcast, we discuss the state of comic book retail, a bizarre occurrence involving our local shops, and the anxiety of putting new books into readers' hands. Zack Kaplan gives us the skinny on Kill All Immortals as well as his two new titles at Dark Horse. We dig into our collective billionaire woes and consider one particular violent action committed by Frey in Kill All Immortals Volume One. Kill All Immortals is written by Zack Kaplan, illustrated by Fico Ossio, colored by Thiago Rocha, and lettered by Hassan Otsmane-Elhaou. Covers by Oliver Barrett (although the header image above is from variant cover artist Tula Lotay). Make sure you're following Zack Kaplan on BlueSky, Instagram, and his website.

The Non-Market Reality of Healthcare Carrier Marketplaces with Dr. Jacob Asher. In this episode of Relentlessly Seeking Value, host Stacey Richter introduces the 'No Market' series focused on the healthcare sector's lack of competitive market dynamics, which affects cost and quality.  The episode features a conversation with Dr. Jacob Asher, who has extensive experience as a Chief Medical Officer at major healthcare plans. They discuss the stagnant nature of commercial carrier marketplaces, particularly in California, and the various factors contributing to this stasis, including employer inertia, the influence of employee benefit consultants, and the strategic focus of carriers on Medicare Advantage over commercial business.  They also explore how carriers' dependence on existing provider networks and contractual negotiations based on member volumes contribute to a lack of meaningful competition. The episode highlights the challenges faced by plans attempting to innovate or differentiate on quality and the systemic issues that perpetuate the current equilibrium. === LINKS ===

Top members of the Trump White House just held a secret strategy meeting about the midterms. The big takeaway: It's time for a domestic pivot, with a focus on drug prices, homebuying, and a ban on Congressional stock trading. The show reacts, then talks about a literal poop river in D.C. Steve Hilton talks about the California gubernatorial race and a fascinating poll that points toward a shocking outcome where the state could be picking from two Republicans in the general election.

Andrea Canning sits down with Keith Morrison to discuss his original podcast series, "The Girl in the Blue Mustang." After 18-year-old Michelle O'Keefe was found murdered in a California park-and-ride in 2000. In 2009 --  after two juries deadlocked -- security guard Raymond Lee Jennings was convicted of her murder at a third trial. But everything changed in 2015 when a Dateline viewer saw the story and vowed to prove Jennings's innocence. The conviction was overturned by a judge and Jennings was released after more than a decade in prison. Keith tells Andrea what it was like covering this story for decades, both in and out of the courtroom. Later, they talk about other stories they've done involving multiple trials. Plus, Keith shares two exclusive clips: one from his interview with that curious Dateline watcher, Clint Ehrlich, and another with the man Clint helped get exonerated. Have a question for Talking Dateline?

1917 EDGAR RICE BURROUGHS. MARS1.Liz Peek discusses the market's current drift and the continued dominance of Artificial Intelligence, arguing AI is not a bubble but a rapidly adopted technology transforming productivity, with companies underhiring as they assess impact and investors needing exposure to this dominant sector.2.Liz Peek critiques California Governor Gavin Newsom, a potential 2028 presidential candidate, citing California'sstruggles with homelessness, illegal immigration, and a wealth tax driving residents away, characterizing him as a catastrophe whose record undermines his viability.3.Judy Dempsey and Thaddeus Mart dismiss Poland's reparation demands from Russia as political jostling, criticize Senator Rubio's visit to Hungary for bolstering Viktor Orbán, and note the Wagner Group's reported return to Europe as destabilizing.4.Judy Dempsey and Thaddeus Mart identify a leadership void in Europe, noting weakness in Macron and Starmer, arguing Europe possesses treaty tools for defense but lacks political will, often blaming Donald Trump rather than addressing internal paralysis.5.Mary Kissel praises Secretary Rubio's Munich speech for emphasizing Western defense but notes he was softer on China than expected, arguing Europe only strengthens military commitments when shamed by the US or facing immediate threats.6.Mary Kissel analyzes the massive US naval deployment near Iran as a credible threat to force regime compliance, dismissing Iran's military drills in the Straits of Hormuz as feeble, suggesting the administration will use force if Tehran refuses dismantlement.7.Jonathan Schanzer of the Foundation for Defense of Democracies analyzes Turkish Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan's disingenuous peace efforts, discusses US demands for Iran's total nuclear dismantlement, and highlights strategic confusion regarding the Board of Peace and Hamas supporters' involvement.8.Jonathan Schanzer describes Syria as effectively a Turkish proxy state viewed with danger by the region, discussing President Trump's announcement of five billion dollars from the Board of Peace for Gaza while expressing skepticism about Turkey and Qatar's reconstruction roles.9.Joseph Sternberg of the Wall Street Journal discusses European leaders finally addressing the continent's economic dysfunction compared to the US, noting proposals for a twenty-eighth regime to simplify business laws while politicians like Meloni and Merz face challenges balancing welfare states with growth reforms.10.Joseph Sternberg analyzes Prime Minister Keir Starmer's crash and burn scenario despite a large parliamentary majority, weakened by scandals and party infighting, with survival relying on the lack of compelling alternatives while constant policy reversals leave his government unable to foster growth.11.Alejandro Peña Esclusa details his transition from businessman to Venezuela's first political prisoner as Hugo Chávez, aided by the São Paulo Forum, dismantled democracy, recounting cacerolazo pot-banging protests and how the regime systematically destroyed the economy and persecuted dissenters.12.Alejandro Peña Esclusa discusses the reported capture of Nicolás Maduro, described as a Cuban asset and drug cartel leader, noting Venezuelans are cautiously celebrating with open protests while threats remain from radical groups and international friction regarding the transition.13.Gregory Copley of Defense & Foreign Affairs discusses the US deployment of one hundred troops to Nigeria to counter ISIS and Boko Haram, arguing stability requires addressing economic disenfranchisement from damming the River Niger rather than treating symptoms with military advisors.14.Gregory Copley reports Nigerian President Tinubu advocates for an African credit rating agency to reduce reliance on external assessments from firms like Moody's, reflecting growing desire for statistical independence and better quantification of local economies to attract investment.15.Gregory Copley argues Europe suffers from a leadership vacuum caused by post-WWII dependency on the US and bureaucratic corrosion within the EU, with economic recovery requiring slashing regulations as current welfare models become unsustainable amidst geopolitical threats.16.Gregory Copley notes that despite scandals surrounding Prince Andrew, the Royal Family remains essential glue holding the UK and Commonwealth together, with the King and working royals performing vital diplomatic functions while spares struggle without defined roles.

Trigger Warning: Discussions of sexual assault. Legal Team, we're back in Salt Lake City and this week we're zooming out to look at the bigger legal picture in Marciano's lawsuit against Demi from The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives. After breaking down the drama, text messages, and on-screen fallout, we're now focusing on what actually has to be proven in court. From defamation standards to public figure hurdles, we unpack how reality TV narratives collide with real world legal thresholds and why this case may come down to much more than what aired on camera. What's on the Docket?The specific claims Marciano filed against Demi and the production company Whether calling someone a sexual predator qualifies as defamation per se What actual malice means and how public figure status raises the bar Utah's definitions of sexual assault versus sexual battery and why that distinction matters The role an Anti SLAPP motion could play in shutting the case down early Why credibility not just contracts or clips may ultimately decide this lawsuit Access additional content and our Patreon here: ⁠https://zez.am/thebravodocket⁠ The Bravo Docket podcast, the statements we make whether in our own media or elsewhere, and any content we post are for entertainment purposes only and do not provide legal advice.

On a remote California ranch, the dogs were the first to sense it, standing rigid at the fence line, staring into empty darkness. By morning, strange tracks circled the property: prints that shifted from four legs… to two. Then came the voice. Their mother calling from just beyond the yard, while she was inside the house the entire time. A week later, a goat disappeared. Deep in the forest, where the air fell unnaturally silent, they found it disemboweled, its organs placed in a deliberate circle. As they fled, something emerged from the trees. Not quite human. Not quite animal. Its movements were wrong, jerking, uneven, and unnatural... Follow Be.

With median prices nearly half of California's and zero state income tax, the panel breaks down why builders, tech founders, and everyday families are heading to Nevada.

"The Boys" are back in town for this Wednesday episode, joining Brendan to preview the PGA Tour's return to Riviera. Joseph starts out with a take regarding this week's event "honoring" the local community in the Palisades, setting the tone for this episode early. Brendan, Joseph, and PJ unpack Tiger Woods's pre-tournament press conference, in which he discussed his chances of returning to competitive golf in 2026, a potential Ryder Cup captaincy, and the PGA Tour schedule changes. It seems like Tiger may tee it up on the Champions Tour after all, with PJ already wanting to make travel arrangements for a few select stops later this year. Woods also gave some insight into the hard work he's been putting in on the 2027 PGA Tour schedule, alluding to the California swing being later in the summer, maybe as part of the playoffs. Joseph loves the idea of Tiger's mark on the game being a playoff schedule that he created, and Brendan thinks that the Genesis Invitational should be a "jumbo event" moving forward. PJ runs through his five favorite tee times for the first two rounds and also sets the scene for this week's Aon Swing 5 vs. Sponsor Exemption tracker, now a five-on-five fight for this week only! Joseph passes along Andy's 5 Guys to Monitor before highlighting a favorite tee time of his own. He also initially declines to make a One-and-Done pick before Brendan bullies him into it on air. Brendan has some sourced reporting from the Magical Kenya Open, sharing details about the caddie fees and "driving range" at this week's DP World Tour event. In news, Justin Thomas will return to pro golf next week in the SoFi Dome... no word yet on if he's playing outdoor golf as well. To round out the show, Joseph and Brendan preview the first-ever Fried Egg Golf Anonymous Survey, tiering the best players in the men's game.

Bryan explains how headlines shape public perception, why critical details often appear deep in articles most readers never reach, and how partisan incentives inside journalism fuel what he calls a century-old tradition of influence over information.

Chronic disease isn't just caused by what you eat. In this video, uncover the indoor lighting dangers you probably don't know about! Find out how to stop circadian rhythm disruption, melatonin suppression, and other modern lighting health problems.Download Dr. Berg's Free Daily Health Routine: https://drbrg.co/46POGyB0:00 Introduction: Artificial light health effects1:45 Lux explained2:50 Why indoor lighting is bad for your health4:36 Indoor lighting and melatonin suppression4:57 Indoor lighting and sleep7:44 How to improve sleep and reduce circadian rhythm disruptionLight affects the circadian system, which in turn influences your mood, metabolism, hormones, sleep, and more. The circadian rhythm is a clock controlled by light and dark signals. In our modern-day environment, the days are too dim and the nights are too bright. During the day, sunlight is filtered through glass, preventing exposure to UV and infrared light, and at night, we're exposed to LED lights, TVs, phones, and tablets. We're dealing with a lack of contrast! Historically, humans were exposed to significantly more light during the day and minimal light at night. Modern lighting leads to melatonin suppression and affects your sleep and cortisol levels. Most people are not getting the restful sleep that they need. This affects the metabolism, insulin, blood sugar, and mood. Research has shown that bright nighttime light exposure can increase your risk of type 2 diabetes. Increasing sunlight exposure alone can improve your blood sugar, while evening bright light exposure can worsen it. Constant lighting is even considered psychologically harmful. Humans have evolved with significantly more light contrast, so we're dealing with an ancestral mismatch. To restore your circadian rhythm and combat the harmful effects of indoor lighting, try the following:1. Make your days aggressively brightEnsure adequate sun exposure before noon, and avoid wearing sunglasses. 2. Make the night genuinely dark Turn off overhead lighting, use soft night-lights, and dim screens 3 hours before bed.3. Restore contrast Focus on bright light during the day and remove light sources from your room at night. Replace light bulbs with incandescent lights if possible. Addressing the problems with modern light is one of the easiest ways to improve sleep naturally and restore your circadian rhythm.

California's unfunded mandates “are exactly what they sound like:” a mandate “with no money behind it.”   A solution like deannexation, however, could really “change the culture of what Sacramento” has been been doing of forcing cities to follow mandates and pay for them, explains Elaine Culotti, The Daily Signal's California contributor.   “It starts to direct tax dollars directly back to the cities in which have been deannexed. It's an interesting business model, and for a state like California, is really important.” Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Kemp Gregory, co-founder and CEO of Renewell Energy, discussed his background in mechanical engineering and petroleum engineering at Shell before transitioning to renewable energy with a master’s from Stanford. He explained that Renewell energy during low-demand periods and releasing it during peak demand, thus increasing grid flexibility. On episode 316 of The Green Insider, Mike and Kemp discussed their business model of leasing abandoned wells from original producers, offering a revenue-sharing option if the well-owners wish to participate in energy storage revenue. Other items included: Proposes converting suitable idle oil and gas wells into energy storage facilities instead of fully plugging and abandoning them This alternative can be lower cost than traditional well plugging while still meeting regulatory well-closure requirements Benefits regulators (meeting plugging quotas), oil and gas companies (cost savings and potential revenue), and the electric grid (added energy storage) Describes a gravity-based storage system that stores energy by lowering and raising a 30,000‑pound weight inside sealed wells Wells are sealed to prevent methane leakage, though carbon credits are not relied on for economic viability The system functions like a battery, storing excess energy during low demand and releasing it during peak demand Repurpose existing wells and electrical infrastructure, avoiding the need for new high-voltage transmission lines Business model involves leasing abandoned wells from original producers, with an option for revenue sharing Notes that Renewell secured $6.4 million in grants to convert additional wells near Bakersfield, California, and build its first commercial-scale system To be an Insider Please subscribe to The Green Insider powered by ERENEWABLE wherever you get your podcast from and remember to leave us a five-star rating.

California voters were promised $370 million in cannabis tax revenue for drug prevention and youth treatment through Prop 64. So why are tens, even hundreds of millions flowing through activist nonprofits and voter registration efforts instead? In this episode, we break down what Prop 64 promised… where the money is actually going… and why many critics say “drug prevention” has turned into a political slush fund wrapped in good intentions. We unpack: How cannabis tax dollars are allocated The role of The Center at Sierra Health Foundation's Elevate Youth program Why NGOs tied to political organizing are receiving prevention funds What this says about accountability, governance, and cultural leadership And most importantly, what this means for men who choose to live clear-headed, sober-minded, and awake.

Jason Hartman and Michael Zuber reflect on the success of a recent investment conference and the enduring value of in-person networking. Hartman emphasizes that successful investing requires emotional discipline, noting that many people lose wealth by selling assets at the wrong time due to personal crises or market fear. He uses an iceberg metaphor to explain that while many focus only on cash flow, the most significant financial benefits of real estate often remain hidden "below the water line" in the form of tax advantages and inflation-induced debt destruction. The pair also critiques "crash bros" who incorrectly predicted a housing market collapse, arguing instead that a persistent housing shortage continues to support property values. To conclude, Hartman invites listeners to his upcoming Empowered Investor Live event in California, which will feature prominent financial speakers and data-driven insights. This dialogue reinforces their shared philosophy that income property remains the most historically proven and tax-favored asset class available to investors. #RealEstateInvesting #IncomeProperty #OneRentalAtATime #EmpoweredInvestorLive #JasonHartman #MichaelZuber #FinancialFreedom #TaxBenefits #1031Exchange #HousingMarket #InflationInducedDebtDestruction #WealthBuilding #InvestmentPsychology #PassiveIncome #RealEstateCycles #ChartDaddy #HousingShortage #LongTermInvesting #CashFlow #RealEstateEvents   Key Takeaways: 0:00 Jason's "Trophy" from Michael Zuber's ORAAT event  3:49 The Behavior Gap 7:54 The ICEBERG and the "Dead" investor 11:33 Join us at the https://EmpoweredInvestorLive.com/ conference 15:09 The overall theme   Follow Jason on TWITTER, INSTAGRAM & LINKEDIN Twitter.com/JasonHartmanROI Instagram.com/jasonhartman1/ Linkedin.com/in/jasonhartmaninvestor/ Call our Investment Counselors at: 1-800-HARTMAN (US) or visit: https://www.jasonhartman.com/ Free Class:  Easily get up to $250,000 in funding for real estate, business or anything else: http://JasonHartman.com/Fund CYA Protect Your Assets, Save Taxes & Estate Planning: http://JasonHartman.com/Protect Get wholesale real estate deals for investment or build a great business – Free Course: https://www.jasonhartman.com/deals Special Offer from Ron LeGrand: https://JasonHartman.com/Ron Free Mini-Book on Pandemic Investing: https://www.PandemicInvesting.com

Today, Jason invite his listeners to the upcoming Empowered Investor Live conference scheduled for May in Irvine, California. He emphasizes a shift toward more personalized content, focusing on specialized real estate strategies like co-living and home equity investments. A primary theme of the episode is the critical importance of data standardization and mastering real estate mathematics to evaluate property performance accurately. To assist with this, Jason strongly advocates for using Property Tracker, a software tool designed to create one-year financial projections and analyze how variables like inflation affect debt. Ultimately, Jason aims to empower investors to become their own best advisors by utilizing free analytical tools and attending educational networking events. #EmpoweredInvestorLive #PropertyTracker #RealEstateMath #InflationInducedDebtDestruction #DebtDestruction #IrvineCA #CoLiving #HomeEquityInvestments #DataStandardization #BeYourOwnAdvisor #IcebergEffect #OneYearProjection #NationwideInvesting #RealEstateInvesting #DataBenchmarking #EmpoweredInvestor #WealthCreation #InvestmentSoftware #FinancialFreedom #InvestmentProforma   Key Takeaways: Jason's intro 0:00 Robert Herjavec: "If you were down to your million..." 2:30 Get the early bird rates at https://empoweredinvestorlive.com/ 4:45 Understand the math.

California senator Adam Schiff says that President Donald Trump will try to “subvert” the midterm elections this year by attempting to overturn any result that disadvantages Congressional Republicans. The President has recently called for nationalizing elections, made multiple unproven claims about voter fraud and pushed the FBI to seize ballots from a Georgia district he lost in 2020. Meanwhile, election integrity experts say U.S. voting systems are secure and that the courts will continue to reject election challenges brought by Trump. We unpack what we might see come November and how election officials are preparing. Guests: David Graham, staff writer, The Atlantic Wendy Weiser, vice president for democracy, Brennan Center for Justice at NYU Law Natalie Adona, registrar of voters, Marin County Learn more about your ad choices.
