Big stream or big screen? This week, Tosin Ajayi and Shaun Harris fly solo as Sharon enjoys a getaway in Dorset and Holly explores the culture of London. The duo settles in to decide if your hard-earned money is better spent at the cinema or in the comfort of your own home.Lee Cronin's The Mummy: Tosin dives into this Blumhouse production, which swaps desert adventures for a harrowing psychological horror story in Cairo and New Mexico. While praising the performances of Jack Reynor and the child actors, Tosin finds the film's two-hour runtime a bit bloated. Rating: 3/5 Stars40th Anniversary Re-release of Akira: Shaun witnesses the legendary 1988 anime on the big screen for the first time. He finds the first hour of neo-Tokyo biker gang warfare and military experimentation gripping, though he admits the final act gets a bit "slow and weird." Rating: 3/5 StarsEagles Over London (Amazon Prime): Shaun revisits this 1969 "Macaroni War" film (the Italian war movie equivalent of a Spaghetti Western). He enjoys the D-Day sabotage plot and the classic 1960s use of split-screen, despite the technically inaccurate period equipment. Rating: 3/5 StarsCaptive Audience (BBC iPlayer): Tosin explores this three-part true-crime documentary about the 1972 disappearance and miraculous return of Steven Stayner. While the first two episodes are riveting, Tosin feels the final installment falls into the trap of sensationalism. Rating: 3/5 StarsWith every review landing a solid average, Tosin and Shaun declare this week a dead tie between the cinema and the streaming platforms.Next Week: The team prepares for the highly anticipated Michael Jackson biopic!Join the Conversation!Think we're crazy for giving Akira only three stars?

"It's all true. The bogeyman is real and you found him."

Section 8(c) of the National Labor Relations Act states an employer’s communication is not an unfair labor practice if it does not contain a threat of reprisal, force, or a promise of a benefit. Historically, this provision was understood to protect employers’ free speech rights to hold mandatory meetings with employees to express their views on unionization.However, in Amazon.com Services LLC, 373 NLRB No. 136 (Nov. 14, 2024), the National Labor Relations Board held that mandatory meetings where an employer expresses its views on unions violate the Act. The Board deemed such meetings unlawful, even if the views expressed during them do not independently constitute an unfair labor practice.Bill Messenger and Roger King will examine the history of Section 8(c), the Board’s interpretation of its scope, and the potential outcome of the Board’s decision on appeal to the 11th Circuit.Featuring:William L. Messenger, Vice President and Legal Director, National Right to Work Legal Defense and Education Foundation, Inc.(Moderator) G. Roger King, Senior Labor and Employment Counsel, HR Policy Association

As part of Domestic Violence Awareness Month, Kim and Kara finally get to talk with Kayla Hayes. At just 25, Kayla Hayes is a passionate advocate, speaker, and author who embodies resilience. Having faced the challenges of childhood sexual abuse and teenage domestic violence, she made a powerful choice to transform her pain into purpose, embracing her scars as wings of strength. Kayla's story has resonated widely, earning features on Inside Edition, in Cosmopolitan Magazine, and on various national platforms dedicated to empowering survivors. Through podcasts, interviews, and impactful speaking engagements, she raises awareness about domestic violence and empowers others to reclaim their identities. A pivotal moment in Kayla's journey was the realization that her experiences did not define her; rather, they could be a source of strength. This insight drives her mission to inspire young people to heal from their pasts and see their scars as symbols of hope and resilience. She believes that by sharing our stories, we can create a supportive community that uplifts one another. Kayla's Call to Action: "Our scars, both physical and invisible, can become our wings, lifting us towards healing and empowerment. I just want to urge you to embrace your journey and wear your scars proudly, knowing they are symbols of resilience. If you or someone you know is struggling with the effects of abuse, I urge you to seek support and share your story because I believe that truly together we can create a community of healing and strength and to show the world that our past does not define us. Instead, we can propel us into a brighter, more powerful future." Learn more from Kayla: To discover more about Kayla's advocacy or to book a speaking engagement, visit sheriseswithkaylahayes.com.

Nicole puts her work into practice as an affiliated educator at the Center for Institutional Courage and as a co-founder of Beyond Compliance Consulting.

Pack your suitcase for a trauma trip! Kim and Kara chart new territory reflecting on alcohol consumption, Kim's Irish goodbyes at concerts, Kara's real-time unpacking of the challenges of parenting, and the compounded mental burdens that come with these responsibilities as survivors. They also discuss the concept of code-switching and its impact on identity. Kim asks listeners for a very specific birthday gift this year: urge Congress to pass the Crime Victims Fund Stabilization Act. Call to Action: Urge Congress to Pass the Crime Victims Fund Stabilization Act (H.R.8061/S.4514) urging the U.S. Senate and House of Representatives to authorize much-needed 2024 bridge funding for the federal Crime Victims Fund (VOCA Fund). The VOCA Fund supports the provision of essential direct services for crime victims and survivors across the country. According to the U.S. Department of Justice's Office for Victims of Crime, projected fiscal year 2024 funding for victim service grants will be $700 million lower than fiscal year 2023. The VOCA Fund was established by the Victims of Crime Act of 1984, and it is the primary financial source for victim services in all 50 states, five U.S. territories, and the District of Columbia. VOCA Fund revenue is generated from offenders convicted of crimes, not from taxes. In 2021, Congress passed the VOCA Fix Act, which allows monetary recoveries from federal deferred prosecutions and non-prosecution agreements to replenish the fund. While passage of the VOCA Fix Act was necessary, it was not sufficient to adequately shore up fund balances, and 2024 VOCA funding for crime victim service programs is anticipated to be 41% lower nationwide when compared to 2023 grant awards. Without prompt action by Congress, many victim service programs across the country may be forced to close. The VOCA Fund supports medical care, mental health counseling, lost wages, courtroom advocacy, and temporary housing for victims and survivors of crime. It also helps to fund federal, state, and tribal victim service programs, crime victim compensation, discretionary grant awards, victim specialists in U.S. Attorney's Offices and the Federal Bureau of Investigation, and the federal victim notification system.
