Humor for the joy of it is reason enough, but in this episode we speak with storyteller Bil Lepp about how humor might also be a way to earn trust with an audience so that we might bring in difficult conversations. He offers techniques for how to craft toward a punchline and how to use a “Lego” approach to crafting multiple stories. We also touch on how storytelling builds community.Bil Lepp is an award-winning storyteller, author, and recording artist.

In today's episode Sara and Ashley discuss the Trans-Allegheny Lunatic Asylum, they also discuss some spooky places they'd like to visit as well as debate in who would win in a battle Supernatural addition. Originally designed to house 250 patients in solitude, the hospital held 717 patients by 1880; it was six times over capacity at 1,661 in 1938; over 1,800 in 1949; at its peak, 2,600 in the 1950s in overcrowded conditions. A 1938 report by a survey committee organized by a group of North American medical organizations found that the hospital housed "epileptics, alcoholics, drug addicts and non-educable mental defectives" among its population. A series of reports by The Charleston Gazette in 1949 found poor sanitation and insufficient furniture, lighting, and heating in much of the complex, while one wing, which had been rebuilt using Works Progress Administration funds following a 1935 fire started by a patient, was comparatively luxurious. Weston State Hospital found itself to be the home for the West Virginia Lobotomy Project in the early 1950s. This was an effort by the state of West Virginia and Walter Freeman to use lobotomy to reduce the number of patients in asylums because there was severe overcrowding.

While the “mothman” has become a fixture of paranormal horror since it was adapted to film in 2002, the stories it was based on were actually far stranger than anything portrayed on screen. The wide range of events that occurred in Point Pleasant, West Virginia in 1966 and 1967 remain some of the most perplexing anomalous events in history, and they implore us to consider how they all might be related.

In today's episode, we start off with Joe Manchin's scandalous op-ed in the Charleston Gazette responding to a democratic voting rights bill. Next, we move to Facebook's announcement that they will be extending Donald Trump's ban from the platform and his first speech since his presidency ended. Finally, we end with a story about a federal judge in San Diego overturning California's assault weapons ban.

Welcome to Majority.FM's AM QUICKIE! Brought to you by justcoffee.coop TODAY'S HEADLINES: Senator Joe Manchin announced on Sunday that he would vote against the For the People Act, the Democrats' landmark voting rights legislation, because it was too partisan. Meanwhile, Israeli police detain two Palestinian journalists who had been documenting the ongoing aggressive takeover of the Sheikh Jarrah neighborhood. And lastly, vaccination rates in the U.S. are declining again, forcing a massive outreach program to meet President Biden's goal of 70% vaccinated by July 4. THESE ARE THE STORIES YOU NEED TO KNOW: Joe Manchin has abandoned all pretense of working for the Democratic party. On Sunday, in an op-ed for the Charleston Gazette, the supposedly Democratic Senator said he would vote against his party's landmark voting rights legislation, effectively dooming its chances of becoming a law. Manchin's reasoning was as absurd as you'd expect. He called the bill, known as the For the People Act, too partisan. His evidence for this was that it had failed to attract a single Republican vote of support. It's obvious why this was: Republicans know that they won't win elections if the For the People Act is passed, because voter suppression is the only play they have. On some level, Manchin must know this. But in the same op-ed, he also vowed to never vote against the filibuster, which makes his stance perfectly clear: he wants to hold his own party hostage to his own misguided agenda. Manchin indicated that he would support another voting rights bill, the John Lewis Voting Rights Advancement act, that doesn't go as far as the For the People Act. But without an end to the filibuster, Manchin knows that bill doesn't have much of a chance of passing either. It's enough to make you wonder which party he's really working for. Israel Arrests Palestinian Journalists Israeli police on Sunday detained two Palestinian journalists who have been documenting the forced colonization of their homes since they were children. Mohammed and Muna El-Kurd are twin siblings who live in Sheikh Jarrah, the neighborhood at the center of last month's initial conflict between Israeli settlers and Palestinian residents. Their family home is one of those targeted for eviction by Israeli court orders, and the El-Kurd twins have been documenting the case and their lives under Israeli occupation since they were kids, amassing a considerable following on social media. On Sunday, Israeli officers arrested and handcuffed Muna at her home, while Mohammed turned himself in after receiving a summons. The police claimed Muna had participated in a riot in the community recently, which is as thin and nebulous of an accusation as it sounds. They were released hours later. Muna El-Kurd said in a statement on the Sheikh Jarrah Instagram page quote: "It's clear that these are policies to silence people, policies to pressure and scare people.” endquote. The El-Kurds aren't the first journalists targeted in recent days. On Saturday, Israeli police violently arrested Al Jazeera correspondent Givara Budeiri as she covered a sit-in marking the 54th anniversary of Israel's 1967 occupation of East Jerusalem, the West Bank, and the Gaza Strip. She was later released but with an absurd condition: that she not report on the situation in Sheikh Jarrah for at least 15 days. If that's not direct suppression of the press, I don't know what is. Vaccination Rates Take a Dive Finally, the Washington Post reports that Joe Biden's vaccination blitz is not looking very blitz-like at the moment. The United States is averaging fewer than 1 million shots per day, a decline of more than two-thirds from the peak of 3.4 million in April, the Post reports. Biden wanted to have 70 percent of all adults vaccinated by July 4th, but that's looking less and less likely by the day. In response, the Post reports that the government and local health clinics are deploying small armies of health workers and volunteers at vaccination sites, often out-numbering the people who come to get the shot. Vaccination rates are falling across the South and Midwest, despite good numbers from the big cities on the East and West Coast. The Post reports that this steep decline began in mid-April, right when the government temporarily suspended the Johnson & Johnson vaccine while they probed rare blood-clotting reactions. The group that still needs the vaccine is, predictably, the people who are most resistant to it or the worst educated about it. That puts the burden of public health on the government to reach these people, but based on the current numbers, Biden's campaign is falling way short. AND NOW FOR SOME QUICKER QUICKIES: Did you miss him? Donald Trump held one of his first public speeches in months in North Carolina on Saturday. You'll never guess what he talked about: conspiracies, voter fraud, and far-right talking points. That's what we have to look forward to for a long time to come. The White House says that 31 million Americans now have healthcare coverage through the Affordable Care Act. That's nice and all, but there are almost 330 million people in this country, and all of them deserve healthcare. The New York Times reports that the U.S. withdrawal from Afghanistan is predictably hindering the country's other efforts to wage war in the region, like impeding CIA efforts to continue carrying out clandestine operations. It's a good reminder that troop withdrawals are only the tip of our country's monumental iceberg of war. Global leaders agreed to the Biden administration's proposed tax plan over the weekend, giving the green light to a mandatory 15 percent minimum tax rate on corporate profits, regardless of where those companies base their headquarters.

Democratic Sen. Joe Manchin on Sunday defended his decision to vote against a sweeping voting rights bill and reiterated his opposition to gutting the filibuster, declaring in the strongest terms yet that he is not willing to change Senate rules to help his party push through much of President Joe Biden's agenda. "I believe that partisan voting legislation will destroy the already weakening binds of our democracy, and for that reason, I will vote against the For the People Act. Furthermore, I will not vote to weaken or eliminate the filibuster," Manchin, a moderate Democrat from West Virginia, wrote in an op-ed published in the Charleston Gazette.To learn more about how CNN protects listener privacy, visit cnn.com/privacy

In this episode, I discuss the growing number of Americans who want the country split up, and the reasons why. I also discuss the disastrous new immigration policy being proposed by the Biden administration. News Picks: The dreadful Charleston Gazette article discussed in the show today. The latest Biden immigration proposal would be a disaster for our immigration process. Open borders policies are crushing border towns and cities. The Democrat’s gun grabbing begins! Why is the US spending money on “gender equality” in Afghanistan? Politics is infecting every component of American life. Copyright Bongino Inc All Rights Reserved.

Two and a half years ago, an African-American teen named James Means was shot and killed in Charleston, WV. An older white man, William Pullman faces first-degree murder charges.

In 1897, shortly after Zona Shue was found dead in her West Virginia home, her mother went to the county prosecutor with a bizarre story. She said that her daughter had been murdered -- and that her ghost had revealed the killer's identity. In this week's episode of the Futility Closet podcast we'll tell the story of the Greenbrier Ghost, one of the strangest courtroom dramas of the 19th century. We'll also consider whether cats are controlling us and puzzle over a delightful oblivion. Intro: Anagrams, a palindrome, and a letter bank regarding American presidents.

I'm absolutely certain what he will NOT be talking about," he wrote in an email to supporters. "He will surely not be apologizing for the many lies he told American voters: how he promised to defend the interests of working people, but then sold them out to Wall Street and the billionaire class."He added that Trump would "also not be talking about the role that he has played in significantly lowering the respect that people all over the planet have for the United States" or "his support for authoritarianism abroad."
