The delicious, healthful prune has long had a cross to bear: It's best known for making people poop. In the late 1990s, the California Prune Board set out on a quixotic mission to amend this sales-flattening reputation. It would attempt to rechristen this ancient fruit in the hopes the prune could one day be as unencumbered as an apricot, a raisin, or a fig. In a world where every product and person increasingly believes it's one good rebrand away from changing how they are seen, the story of the prune's attempt to become the “dried plum” is a telling tale about the impossibility of escaping who you really are—and the freedom that comes with self-acceptance. You'll hear from Richard Peterson, retired Executive Director of the California Prune Board; food writer and chef David Liebovitz; lawyer and lobbyist Dan Haley; and Kiaran Locy, Director of Brand and Industry Communications at the California Prune Board.This episode was written by Willa Paskin.

What happens when a body arrives at a hospital morgue without any record of how it got there? In this episode of The Box of Oddities, Kat and Jethro examine a disturbing class of real-world cases involving unidentified bodies that appear in hospital morgues with no paperwork, no chain of custody, and no clear explanation. The episode begins with a firsthand email from a night-shift worker who briefly stepped away from an empty morgue—only to return to find a body placed neatly in the room, as if it had always belonged there. From that moment, the discussion expands into documented incidents across U.S. hospitals and medical examiner offices, where decedents entered official custody before they technically existed in the system. Drawing on acknowledged cases in California and Illinois, professional standards from the National Association of Medical Examiners, and historical precedent, Kat and Jethro explore how modern medical systems quietly normalize these unexplained arrivals by assigning case numbers and moving forward—without ever addressing the moment something appeared where nothing had been before. The episode then shifts to a seemingly unrelated but deeply connected subject: how human societies remember lives at all. Long before databases and paperwork, entire civilizations relied on living memory. Kat and Jethro explore the tradition of griots and other oral historians across West Africa, Europe, the Americas, and Asia—individuals entrusted with preserving genealogies, histories, and identities entirely through story, music, and performance. Backed by neuroscience research, the episode examines why rhythm and narrative are so effective at preserving memory, even when written records fail. Together, these two topics form a quiet, unsettling question at the heart of the episode: what happens when systems designed to document human existence fall short—and who remembers us when they do? Grounded in documented cases, historical tradition, and modern science, this episode blends true mystery with cultural insight, revealing how bodies can arrive without histories, and histories can survive without bodies.

This week I cover Lodi, California, an historic wine region in the Central Valley of California that has been growing grapes since the 1850s.   Located 40 miles /64 km south of Sacramento and 90 miles/ 145 km east of San Francisco, Lodi is an often overlooked wine region, despite the fact that it has been recognized as an American Viticultural Area (AVA) since 1986. Lodi AVAs. Source: Lodi Winegrape Commission   Lodi certainly doesn't lack for vineyard land --today the region has 100,000 acres/ 40,500 ha planted to wine grapes, with 750 growers, 80 wineries, and about 65 tasting rooms. 20% of California's total wine is made from Lodi grapes. The AVA also has the highest concentration of old vines in California. Photo: Bechthold Vineyard planted 1886. Credit:  Randy Caparoso, CC BY-SA 4.0 , via Wikimedia Commons   Although the region is known for big, juicy, high alcohol Zinfandel Petite Sirah, Cabernet Sauvignon, and red blends, the real secret is that with a library of 125+ different varietals growing, Lodi is doing a lot of experimentation with alternative varietals and some of it is pretty cool. Lodi has a few tricks up its sleeve.   In this show, I cover all of the details of Lodi from the history, to the climate and land, to the AVAs, and the wine styles. I mention some key producers, and then I wrap with some of the challenges that Lodi faces and the opportunities it has in front of it.   A fun show and a new way to look at a Wine region that you may be thought you knew all about.   Source for this show was primarily the excellent site of the Lodi Winegrape Commission: Full show notes and all back episodes are on Patreon. Become a member today! www.patreon.com/winefornormalpeople _______________________________________________________________   Check out my exclusive sponsor, Wine Access.  They have an amazing selection -- once you get hooked on their wines, they will be your go-to!

In 2019, Silicon Valley investor and entrepreneur Tushar Atre met a tragic end after paddling out into the rough waters of the underground cannabis scene in surfer haven Santa Cruz, California, At once a love story, a crime drama, and a who-dun-it, this epic tale is chronicled in the riveting new book A Killing in Cannabis. My guest for this episode is the book's author, Scott Eden.

Hello Seekers! Ben here, today Jacques, Hesse and I are joined by our dear Mr. Max to discuss the Gay Tech Mafia allegedly operating in Silicon Valley. Then Max's co-host on the Drain, Dave Kempa, joins us for a preview of their show about California politics. Intro & Outro–Yerba Brava, Como Te Voy A Olvidar

Peoples & Things host, Lee Vinsel, and guest host, Paula Bialski, Associate Professor of Digital Sociology at University of St. Gallen, talk to Fred Turner, Harry and Norman Chandler Professor of Communication at Stanford University, about his classic 2006 book, _From Counterculture to Cyberculture: Stewart Brand, the Whole Earth Network, and the Rise of Digital Utopianism_. They briefly explore the arc of Fred's career and revisit the book in the spirit of asking what has changed in digital ideology since the book's publication, including with the role of Silicon Valley elites in the second Trump Administration, Elon Musk's role in DOGE, and the (perhaps only brief) turn of digital technology elites moving from California to Texas. Since this conversation was recorded in April 2025, Fred's essay, “The Texan Ideology,” has been published in The Baffler: Link here. Learn more about your ad choices.

Gavin Newsom is in his final year as governor of California. He's also widely considered a potential presidential candidate for 2028—a possibility he has not ruled out—and he sees himself as a leader of Democratic opposition to President Donald Trump, often mocking his brash style on social media. The governor sat down with NPR for an interview ahead of the release of his new memoir, Young Man in a Hurry. He talks about his early life as a kid in the San Francisco Bay Area, his strategy of simultaneously engaging with right-wing voices and ridiculing the president, and he explains why he refuses “to be a bystander to this moment.”For sponsor-free episodes of Consider This, sign up for Consider This+ via Apple Podcasts or at plus.npr.org.  Email us at considerthis@npr.org.This episode was produced by Connor Donevan and Jonaki Mehta.

It's News Day Tuesday on the Majority Report   On today's program:   Former ICE lawyer-turned-whistleblower Ryan Schwank testified at a hearing held by congressional Democrats, detailing how he received secret orders to train ICE recruits to violate the Constitution.   Senator Mike Lee (R-UT) tweets picture of cartel members wearing masks and captions with "cartel hitmen wear masks. Leftists aren't complaining". Democratic senators dunk on Lee's post by pointing out the hypocrisy of ICE agents wearing masks.   Alexander Avina, historian and associate professor at Arizona State University joins the program to discuss the situation in Mexico after the killing of CJNG cartel leader, El Mencho.   Tad Stoermer of Resistance History releases a video that critiques the Democrats bizarre choice of Colonial Williamsburg as the location for Gov. Spanberger's response to tonight's State of the Union address.   In the Fun Half:   Tucker Carlson presses Mike Huckabee on his claim that Israel has a "biblical right" to the land from the Euphrates to Nile.   The leader of Israel's "opposition" party expresses the same beliefs as Huckabee regarding biblical deeds to the Middle East.   Tucker also debates with Huckabee how much the Trump administration values the opinions of American's considering the overwhelming rejection of a potential war with Iran.   Gavin Newsom - Governor of California and sleezy magician - says democrats need to be more "culturally normal".   all that and more   To connect and organize with your local ICE rapid response team visit ICERRT.com The Congress switchboard number is (202) 224-3121.

Ramit Sethi of I Will Teach You To Be Rich talks to Chris and Heather, a couple aged 41 and 39 respectively, who, despite earning over $450,000 annually and boasting a $2.18 million net worth, feel like they're living paycheck to paycheck. Heather, an accomplished healthcare professional, worries that despite their income, they aren't organizing their finances effectively, leading to a feeling of scarcity. Chris, who works for the State of California, focuses on long-term retirement planning but avoids making crucial decisions, leading to "analysis paralysis."

Gulls are notorious for snatching french fries from waste bins and flocking to landfills. But one Western Gull's devotion to trash reached a new level with an 80-mile road trip aboard a waste transfer truck in California. The gull may have gotten trapped in the truck unintentionally, but it delivered her to 216-acres composting facility. And shortly after returning to her colony, she repeated her trek! It's the first time scientists have documented such an unusual commute.More info and transcript at BirdNote.org.Want more BirdNote? Subscribe to our weekly newsletter.

When you visit a new city, one of your first stops might be a museum. It turns out that public art galleries are largely an 18th-century invention. In London in 1789, publisher John Boydell helped shape that new cultural experience with an ambitious project in Pall Mall: a gallery devoted entirely to scenes from Shakespeare. Boydell commissioned leading British artists to paint pivotal moments from the plays, then sold engraved reproductions for museum-goers to take home with them. The gallery quickly became a sensation and was visited by everyone who was anyone, from Jane Austen to the Prince of Wales. It also played a powerful role in transforming William Shakespeare from a popular playwright into a national icon. The venture ultimately failed due to the economic turmoil of the Napoleonic Wars, and the many life-size paintings were cut into smaller canvases and all sold at auction. Yet its influence endured, shaping exhibition culture, influencing a British school of art, and inspiring the visual mythology of The Joining us to explore the rise and fall of the Boydell Shakespeare Gallery are Rosie Dias, Professor of Art History at the University of Warwick, and Michael Dobson, Director of the Shakespeare Institute at the University of Birmingham.

The investigation into the death of Celeste Rivas Hernandez took a significant legal turn this week when a Texas appeals court denied habeas corpus petitions filed by D4VD's parents and brother, ordering them to comply with California grand jury subpoenas. Dawud, Colleen, and Caleb Burke had argued that redacted affidavits prevented them from understanding why they were deemed material witnesses. The court disagreed, though a February 24 rehearing keeps the door open.The Burke family ruling is the latest escalation in what has become a defining feature of this case: widespread noncooperation from D4VD's inner circle. Neo Langston, a close friend and streamer, was arrested in Montana after failing to appear and testified for roughly 40 minutes — a duration retired FBI Special Agent Jennifer Coffindaffer believes signals repeated Fifth Amendment invocations. An unidentified female witness failed to appear, prompting prosecutors to seek a body attachment. Manager Robert Morgenroth testified for three days but was reportedly overheard discussing prosecutorial pressure over his failure to contact police.A footnote in the Texas ruling references "The People of the State of California v. David Burke," which analysts say strongly suggests sealed criminal proceedings are already underway. D4VD has not been charged. Sources say he is no longer cooperating with investigators.This episode covers the Texas ruling, the full pattern of witness resistance, and what February 24 could mean for the trajectory of this case.

In Episode 362 of the Mixing Music Podcast, hosts Dee Kei and Lu start with a wild weekend recap that includes long work hours, live sound chaos, and a massive rally in downtown Los Angeles. Dee Kei shares how he went from one gig to another while traffic was locked up, and even ended up unintentionally marching with a protest on the way to the next event. He describes the scale of the rally setup, including flying dozens of line arrays to cover an enormous crowd, and then later connects that experience to one of the core themes of the episode: fundamentals matter more than fancy gear.The main conversation is sparked by a viral-style audio story: a blind listening test where people could not reliably tell the difference between audio passed through standard copper wire, a banana, or wet mud. Dee Kei and Lu use the article as a jumping-off point to talk about how easy it is for audio culture to become obsessed with mysticism, status, and expensive objects rather than results. They point out that even when engineers care deeply about details, most listeners respond to vibe, emotion, and impact, not the mythology around cables, converters, or obscure technical flexes.From there, the episode expands into a bigger discussion about anti-intellectualism in the Zen sense, not anti-intelligence. The idea is that practical experience, experimentation, and real listening should take priority over rigid theories, cheat sheets, and secondhand rules. They talk about how knowing everything about a compressor on paper is not the same as using it well in context, and how taste and emotional translation are often more important than technical trivia. They connect this to why AI may automate some low-stakes, background-music needs, but will not fully replace the human judgment behind great mixing and music made for music's sake.The guys also get into the social side of the industry, including how insecurity can show up as a need to prove people wrong, and how being “the smartest person in the room” does not matter if you make everyone miserable. They share stories about people who are technically knowledgeable but communicate with a defensive, correcting energy that makes others want to exit the conversation. Dee Kei frames it as a lack of contentment and an obsession with being right instead of being useful.Later, they bring the conversation back to growth and practice: why daily reps matter, how to get better by accelerating mistake-making, and why it helps to mix for real people with opinions rather than only practicing in a vacuum. They talk about practical ways to practice recording and mixing when you do not have a studio, like using rehearsal spaces, booking an affordable studio day, or working with local bands in exchange for experience. Dee Kei also emphasizes a simple principle he has said before: if you want to get good, start mixing faster and start making decisive choices with intention.To close, they reflect on humility, responsibility, and long-term improvement, including an example of how top performers stay grounded under pressure, plus a nuanced comparison of how gratitude can be framed differently in American versus Japanese culture. The episode ends with a reminder to focus on the craft over the distractions, keep it fun, and keep learning.SUBSCRIBE TO OUR PATREON FOR EXCLUSIVE CONTENT!⁠SUBSCRIBE TO YOUTUBE⁠Join the ‘Mixing Music Podcast' Discord!HIRE DEE KEIHIRE LU⁠HIRE JAMES⁠Find Dee Kei and Lu on Social Media:Instagram: @DeeKeiMixes @MasteredbyLu @JamesParrishMixesTwitter: @DeeKeiMixes @MasteredbyLuThe Mixing Music Podcast is sponsored by ⁠Izotope⁠, ⁠Antares (Auto Tune)⁠, Sweetwater, ⁠Plugin Boutique⁠, ⁠Lauten Audio⁠, ⁠Filepass⁠, & ⁠Canva⁠The Mixing Music Podcast is a video and audio series on the art of music production and post-production.

Every person in D4VD's inner circle is either fighting subpoenas, invoking the Fifth, or refusing to show up — and a Texas appeals court just told his family that's not going to work.The 1st District Court of Appeals in Texas denied three habeas corpus petitions filed by D4VD's father Dawud, mother Colleen, and brother Caleb, who argued that redacted affidavits violated their due process rights. The ruling compels them to testify before a Los Angeles County grand jury investigating the death of 14-year-old Celeste Rivas Hernandez, whose remains were found in D4VD's Tesla in September. A rehearing is set for February 24.The Burke family joins a growing list of uncooperative witnesses. Neo Langston was arrested in Montana and appeared before the panel for just 40 minutes. An unidentified female witness was a no-show. Manager Robert Morgenroth testified for three days but reportedly told his attorney that prosecutors pressed him on why he never contacted police. And D4VD himself is reportedly no longer cooperating.A court footnote referencing "The People of the State of California v. David Burke" strongly suggests a sealed criminal proceeding may already be underway. LAPD Deputy Chief Alan Hamilton promised accountability in November. Three months later, prosecutors are still fighting just to get witnesses in the room.This episode examines the pattern of silence, the legal battles, and what it all means for the case — and for justice for Celeste.No arrests have been made.

The man who helped design the surveillance state is perfectly fine with it—until his daughter calls covered in blood with a dead boyfriend on the floor. The Price of Safety, Michael C. Bland's award-winning sci-fi novel, is set in 2047, where cameras are everywhere, your optics can be hacked, and the system was built by someone who genuinely thought he was keeping people safe. Matthew sits down with Michael to ask the question the book won't let you avoid: how much liberty are we actually willing to trade for safety—and what happens when the people holding the keys decide your freedom is the price?They dig into the mechanics of how surveillance reshapes behavior (the terror isn't being watched—it's not knowing when), why grief and helplessness after loss quietly raise our tolerance for control, and how every character in the book, including the ones doing terrible things, genuinely believes they're the hero of their own story. Michael also shares the moment his fictional DNA scanner turned real: he wrote it into his second book, and a month after publication, a California company announced they'd built it.The conversation keeps landing uncomfortably close to the present—and that's exactly the point.Website**************************************************************************This episode is a production of Superhero Ethics, an Ethical Panda podcast and part of the TruStory FM Entertainment Podcast Network.

Double Tap - Ep 450 This episode of Double Tap is brought to you by: Gideon Optics (Code: WLSISLIFE) Primary Arms Blue Alpha Rost Martin (Code: WLSISLIFE) Otis Technology (Code: WELIKESHOOTING15) Mitchell Defense (Code: WLS10) Text Dear WLS or Reviews +1 743 500 2171 New Public notes page. DEAR WLS Question from Peter J from WA Dear WLS: as far as carry guns go, what is important? Optics, comp/ port, trigger, capacity, comfortability, conceal availability, type of holster, or anything else you can think of? Or it's just the plain Jane G 19 stock type good to go? Question from Duke of Crude from TX Duke of Crude: What's up with Taylor and co? I thought they made high end lever actions, but I have been getting a ton of adds for what looks like a high point revolver (model 963) that's “Taylor and co”. Did their brand get high jacked from Turkish importers or are these things for real? Thanks! Notes: what happened to the new years dead pool episode? Did I miss it or were you waiting on Aaron to get back? Question from Micah Wells from Michigan Question! Why hasn't anyone come up with a quick release pistol dot or base/mount? Something like we use on rifles? You know, in case a problem arises that requires the whole thing to get out of the way in order to use BUIS. (AKA, crushed glass, debris, external fogging, etc.) I know all of my serious stuff utilizes a QR mount. Thanks, Micah Wells Question from Dusky from Florida Hi. Question. Can/Should you shoot lead round nose 22lr through a suppressor? (Have a modular can that can easily be disassembled and cleaned) Is this an issue, if so is it about the lead exposure, sound performance, or just a safety factor? Thank you. Is the Dusky. No Notes. Question from Ken G. from VA Ask WLS: My state has fallen. This year will likely see an onslaught of anti gun legislation passed. Moving is not an option. My firearms collection is pretty diverse. If you were in my shoes with YOUR collection, $3k, and less than six months to make purchases, what are you buying? Ken G. Sic Semper Tyrannis Question from Anonymous Coward from KS Dear WLS Hey Jeremy, how much for the old Harley? Question from Anonymous Coward from Ohio Hello I was wondering if there is a coupon code for pew locker? Thanks for all you guys do for the fun community. And the is show is way better without Aaron. Hope this is a permanent change.

In this volume of the Trails & Tribulations series on the Just Trek podcast, I welcome back SoCal trekker, Justin Williams aka @RockhoundHiker, to recount a 2016 “vision quest” style thru-hike across Southern California's mighty San Gabriel Mountains. Starting at Ling Yen Mountain Temple near the Etiwanda Preserve, Justin set out severely underprepared—carrying only water and three apples—on a roughly multi-day, ~60-mile push toward St. Andrew's Abbey in Valyermo, California. Along the way he commits to dangerous off-trail terrain, including climbing multiple 40–50 foot dry waterfalls with loose rock, an all-night bushwhack through thorny buckthorn and a wrong turn that sends him up a rugged ridge to Etiwanda Peak before reconnecting to the route toward Cucamonga Peak and Baldy. As heat, dehydration, and electrolyte depletion set in, he vomits repeatedly, naps in a cave to escape the sun, accepts help from hikers. He shares memorable encounters—especially meeting Mr. Kim on Mt. Baldy, a hiker on a personal pilgrimage for Korean reunification who later died on the mountain—and describes being emotionally shaken by a memorial to PCT hikers who died in snow, prompting reflection on the consequences of risk and who we leave behind. Have you ever experienced a survival moment or learned a tough lesson on the trail? Maybe you got lost, faced sudden weather, encountered wildlife, or found yourself pushed to your limits in ways you didn't expect. Trails & Tribulations is the space where those stories come to life, inspiring and connecting the outdoor community.

What does it take to make the most out of the internet when you're building a micro or cottage bakery? My guest today, Teresa Finney, is here to explore this through her journey building At Heart Panadería. Teresa is a pastry chef and writer from the Bay Area in California, with family roots in Guadalajara, Mexico. Now based in Atlanta, Georgia, she runs At Heart Panadería, a contemporary Mexican bakery. She is also the author of Panadería: A Cookbook Zine, which contains five thoughtfully crafted original recipes from her cottage bakery.  In today's discussion, we explore how she began her cottage bakery in her at-home kitchen, the shifting relationship with the internet to spread the word of her new bakes, the importance of sourcing seasonal and local ingredients, the relationship between baking and the body, and the role she sees bakers playing in serving their communities.
