Claude M. Steele is a legendary social psychologist whose groundbreaking research on stereotype threat, self-image, and self-affirmation has reshaped how we understand identity. His latest work explores "churn," the mental and physical stress that can arise in everyday interactions across differences, and the tension shaping so much of modern life.   Today, Claude shares what it was like growing up outside Chicago in a racially diverse and complex environment, the values instilled by his parents, and how his identity shaped his perspective. We discuss his acclaimed book Whistling Vivaldi and the silent weight of stereotypes, along with the subtle, powerful actions that can help dissolve them. He also unpacks his newest research on "churn" and explains why ignoring our differences often deepens tension, while building trust is the most effective path forward.   My friends, if you want to better understand one another, reduce tension, and unlock the potential that exists across our differences, this conversation is for you.

Hundreds of Chicago Catholic school students have found out some additional resources they rely on, like tutors, classroom aides, and after-school programs, will no longer be available through the end of the school year.

Oprah Winfrey has just flown the Duggar family, in late 2006, from their isolated farm in Arkansas to Chicago. She covers all accommodations for mom, dad, and their litter of (at the time) 17 kids and counting in exchange for an interview.   The Duggars are a well known reality TV family, iconic for their cult-like way of life. They looked like time travelers. A family plucked from the pre-electricity past and dropped in the middle of the big city.   Before they can even start filming, an anonymous email in all caps, lands in one of the producer's inboxes:   “…YOU NEED TO KNOW THE TRUTH… [REDACTED] HAS MOLESTED [REDACTED] WHILE [REDACTED] WERE SLEEPING AND THE PARENTS HAVE BEEN HIDING THIS SECRET FOR A LONG TIME…”   Oprah takes the tip seriously. She cancels their interview and forwards the email straight to the authorities and a child abuse hot line.   The email is later found to be sent by a [redacted] female. And not only that, the sender is right…   At least 3 Duggars have been arrested thus far, in addition to 1 police officer in connection with their case, all relating to crimes against children.         Full show notes available at RottenMangoPodcast.com Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Adrienne Gold Davis sits down with Momentum CEO Tara Brown to reframe tzedakah not as charity, but as a core expression of Jewish identity, leadership, and purpose.   Together, they unpack why a generation of committed givers often directs that energy elsewhere, and how Jewish mothers are uniquely positioned to change that.   Drawing on personal stories and Jewish wisdom, Tara and Adrienne show how giving, done right, is dignified, purposeful, and transformative for both the giver and the community.   If you want to raise givers and be one, this episode will change how you think about tzedakah.       The Rise & Shine Podcast Series is made possible by the generous support of Bonnie Vozar of Chicago, Illinois.

My cousin spent 23 years in an Illinois prison for a crime she says she didn't know she was committing. She was 33 when a judge handed down a 60-year sentence. She would have been 93 before she saw the outside again. This episode is personal. In "Only God Pardons," we follow my cousin Iris (not her real name) through the Illinois clemency system: what it takes to apply, what the odds actually look like, and what it means to finally get out, only to discover that freedom comes with its own kind of sentence. Along the way, we hear from Margaret Byrne, a Chicago attorney who has spent 45 years fighting for people inside Illinois prisons who shouldn't be there, including the women she represented through the Illinois Clemency Project for Battered Women. And we talk to Jeff Grant, attorney, minister, and co-founder of the White Collar Support Group, who argues that the pardon system doesn't go nearly far enough and who is pushing Congress to add federal expungement as a tool alongside clemency. We also look at what's happening at the federal level, where a booming paid-pardon industry has taken root around the White House. According to federal lobbying disclosures, clients paid firms more than five million dollars in 2025 just to get their clemency cases in front of the president, eight times what was spent seeking pardons from the Biden administration. And then there's Rod Blagojevich, the former Illinois governor convicted of corruption, commuted by Trump in 2020 and fully pardoned in his second term, a man who turned the governor's office into a shakedown operation, pardoned by a president who turned clemency into currency for whoever could afford the cover charge. Meanwhile, my cousin filed her petition the right way. Through the right channels. And waited.

Today's guest is the architect of alternative rock who sold 30 million albums and defined the sound of an entire generation — but whose real story begins after the hits stopped mattering to him.From the suburbs of Chicago to the apex of 90s mainstream success, Billy Corgan built an empire. Then he spent the last 20 years quietly dismantling the idea that commercial success is the same thing as real value. He carries three things simultaneously that most artists never figure out how to hold at once: the ambition of someone who was never going to settle for the midwest, the technical genius of a classically-trained musician who produces every layer of his own work, and the philosophical rigor of someone willing to completely reimagine what success actually means.This is one of the more unflinching conversations about what staying relevant actually costs — not the version that gets posted on socials, the version that gets lived in the real decisions you make about art, money, independence, and how you want to spend your time. When the gatekeepers are gone and nobody's controlling the narrative anymore, who do you become?And The Writer Is... Billy Corgan!In this episode of And The Writer Is, we go deep on:• The trap of being defined by your greatest hits — and why he refuses it• His father's failed music career, and the moment his dad finally understood• Chicago's inward-facing indie scene and the cost of communities that don't believe in themselves• How the value of artists gets assessed in rooms — and why that's broken• What "influence" actually means vs. commercial success• The gatekeepers are gone — what that really means for independent artists• Owning 100% of your publishing and why that changes everything• Building a new world where direct artist support is how things actually work• Why legacy thinking is changing, and what comes nextAnd much more...Hit subscribe and turn on notifications.

Things got heated fast on The Rickey Smiley Morning Show as the crew tackled President Donald Trump’s refusal to apologize to Pope Leo XIV after blasting him over the Iran conflict and posting — then deleting — an AI image that appeared to depict Trump as Jesus. Trump insists the image was meant to show him “as a doctor,” a claim that sparked backlash from religious leaders and even some of his own supporters, turning the moment into a rare and messy public standoff between a sitting president and the Vatican. Sports and culture news kept the momentum going, starting with reports that players on the Chicago Sky were quietly relieved after Angel Reese was traded to the Atlanta Dream, with anonymous insiders describing lingering locker-room tension during her time in Chicago. Meanwhile, boxing legend Floyd “Money” Mayweather is facing renewed scrutiny after the IRS filed a $7.3 million federal tax lien, adding fuel to speculation that his recent exhibition bouts may be driven by cash-flow issues rather than competition. Rounding out the episode, fans were stunned when New Edition failed to make the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame Class of 2026 — despite winning the fan vote — reigniting debate over how the Hall values R&B and Black legacy artists, with even fellow inductees publicly calling the snub unfair.

In this powerful episode of Public Health Epidemiology Conversations, Dr. Huntley speaks with Chicago's first Black woman health commissioner, Dr. Olusimbo "Simbo" Ige, about tackling one of the nation's most alarming health disparities. When Black residents in Chicago were dying 15 years earlier than their neighbors, Dr. Ige stepped into leadership determined to change the trajectory. Drawing on decades of experience across Nigeria, Sub-Saharan Africa, and New York City, she shares how global public health lessons are shaping bold, community-centered strategies in Chicago today. From a 38% reduction in opioid deaths to early signs that the city's life expectancy gap is finally narrowing, Dr. Ige offers a candid look at what it takes to drive meaningful change in complex systems. She also speaks openly about the deeper barrier to progress. Not a lack of data, but a divide in values around who deserves public investment. Along the way, she and Dr. Huntley explore the importance of plain language, trusted community messengers, and storytelling as essential tools for effective public health leadership. This conversation is both inspiring and grounding for anyone committed to improving health equity.   Resources ▶️ Join the PHEC Podcast Community ▶️ Visit the PHEC Podcast Show Notes ▶️ DrCHHuntley, Public Health & Epidemiology Consulting

What if the very thing you've been taught to avoid…looking like a bitch...is the exact thing that unlocks everything you want AND MORE? In this episode, we dismantle the good girl conditioning that keeps you small, over-giving, unfulfilled, and stuck settling for scraps or crumbs and replace it with the provocative truth that results in me and my clients getting what we want... Are you ready for it? Getting what you want requires you to be 1000x more selfish and self-centered…and fully willing to be seen as the bitch. Yes, THAT bitch who gets what she wants or something even wetter, better, hotter. You're being initiated into being the woman who prioritizes her desires, holds unapologetic standards, and commands her reality without waiting for permission. The type of stuff people think makes you a total bitch or villain. But in the words of one of my favorite quotes going around right now... "I might be the villain in your story, but you're a loser in mine." And you are no loser. So act accordingly. Inside this episode you'll hear... Why being the likable good girl is costing you your hottest, deepest desires and how being a selfish bitch activates your power and magnetism The hidden ways people-pleasing, fear of judgment, and good girl propaganda keep you settling for scraps and crumbs How to set bold boundaries, raise your standards, and say no without guilt (even when it triggers others) The concept of the villain era and why being misunderstood is often a sign you're finally doing what you want How prioritizing yourself (even in motherhood, relationships, and business) expands your capacity for wealth, pleasure, and leadership Ready for more? If something in this episode lit a fire under your ass…don't just sit on it. This is your moment to decide: are you going to keep circling your next level, or are you actually going to step into it? There are a few ways to move with me right now: The Woman Who Commands: You hold the power to command your reality & bend the world to your will. It makes people beg to pay you, serve you, and join your revolution. It's time to unlock and own that power.

“You don't have enough money to pay all the bills? Well, cut the budget for parks and rec, cut the budget for libraries, cut the budget for fixing potholes — but don't touch the police budget.” — Stuart Schrader Fifty years ago, America's local police still served at the pleasure of democratically elected politicians. Not anymore. Stuart Schrader has spent years in the archives tracing how it happened. In Blue Power: How Police Organized to Protect and Serve Themselves, Schrader begins the story in Sixties Detroit, where a young, progressive Democratic mayor found his career derailed by a police union fighting for recognition. It was the opening move of a decades-long campaign in which rank-and-file officers took advantage of the tools of American democracy — unions, lobbying, litigation, public relations — to lift policing above the law. Schrader's most counterintuitive finding is that the greatest federal champions of Blue Power were Democrats like Joe Biden. With Trump 2.0, the story gets even stranger. ICE — anonymous, paramilitary, seemingly answerable to no one — has paradoxically made local police look credible by comparison. Some police unions have tried to exploit the contrast at contract renewal time. Others have quietly welcomed the federal incursions as a way to challenge progressive city councils in Los Angeles, Chicago, and DC. It's almost as if today's democratically elected politicians serve at the pleasure of the local police. Five Takeaways •       The Detroit Opening Move: The book begins in 1960s Detroit, where a young, charismatic, progressive Democratic mayor found his political career effectively destroyed by a police union fighting for recognition. That wasn't an accident. Police were simultaneously being called on to put down urban rebellions and gaining new workplace power through public sector unionization laws. They married those two things together: law and order rhetoric plus well-compensated, long-leashed officers. The Supreme Court's rights revolution — criminal defendants' rights, civil rights — felt to police like an existential threat. Blue Power was their answer. •       Biden and the Bipartisan Consensus: Schrader's most counterintuitive finding: the greatest federal champions of Blue Power were Democrats. Joe Biden, as a senator, was one of the most important figures in unifying police organizations — rural versus urban, command rank versus rank and file — and ensuring legislation met their demands. The law-and-order consensus wasn't just Republican. It was built by Democrats who were terrified of the crime hysteria, and police who were expert at stoking it. Even once crime began its dramatic decline in the 1990s, police kept using the fear. We stopped the crime wave. Now pay up. •       Crime Hysteria as a Political Weapon: Police learned early that crime statistics were a cudgel. Sign a good contract or crime will go up. And the tactic worked — not because the connection between police compensation and crime rates is real (Schrader says it isn't), but because the fear was real. Social scientists still can't fully explain why crime rose dramatically through the 1960s-80s and then declined just as dramatically from the mid-1990s. Police can't explain it either. But no other public sector union operates this way. Sanitation workers don't demand raises because they plowed the streets well in a heavy winter. Teachers don't point to test scores. Police do. •       ICE, Blue Power, and the Trump Paradox: ICE — anonymous, paramilitary, answerable to no one, reluctant even to wear identifying insignia — has paradoxically made local police look credible by contrast. Some unions have tried to exploit this at contract renewal time: we're not ICE, so pay us accordingly. Others have quietly welcomed the federal incursions as a way to override progressive city councils in Chicago, LA, DC, and elsewhere. The Border Patrol union was one of the first to endorse Trump in 2016 and has been rewarded handsomely. Blue Power is nothing if not adaptable. •       Why Defunding Failed — and What Actually Matters: Blue Power, Schrader argues, is the primary reason defunding didn't happen. Police used the same political tactics the book describes to thwart those demands from movements — the same lobbying, litigation, public relations, and contract leverage they've been deploying since the 1960s. The real question isn't defund or not defund. It's how cities allocate their resources. Over and over again in his research, Schrader found police saying explicitly: cut parks and rec, cut libraries, cut pothole repair — but don't touch our budget. That argument, made in fiscal crisis after fiscal crisis, has never really stopped. About the Guest Stuart Schrader is associate professor of history at Johns Hopkins University and director of the Chloe Center for the Critical Study of Racism, Immigration, and Colonialism.

We are more familiar with ourselves than with anything else in the universe, but we generally don't come very close to really understanding what our "self" is. That's not too surprising, as selves are very complicated and we are burdened by all sorts of biases. Today's guest is J. Eric Oliver, who has been teaching a popular course at the University of Chicago called "The Intelligible Self." His academic specialty is political science, but he brings together ideas from psychology, neuroscience, and a broad swath of the humanities. His view is summarized in his recent book, How to Know Yourself: The Art and Science of Discovering Who You Really Are. Take your personal data back with Incogni!

Nearly one year after the election of Chicago-born Pope Leo XIV, Norah O'Donnell speaks with three of the most influential American cardinals in their first joint interview about how Pope Leo's church has emerged as a voice of moral opposition to the war with Iran and against the crackdown on immigration in the U.S. O'Donnell interviews Cardinal Blase Cupich, Archbishop of Chicago; Cardinal Robert McElroy, Archbishop of Washington, D.C.; and Cardinal Joseph Tobin, Archbishop of Newark, NJ, about the effect Pope Leo is having on the Catholic Church. She also travels to Italy to visit Castel Gandolfo, the 400-year-old papal summer retreat. Continuing the work of his predecessor, Pope Francis, Pope Leo is opening the property up to the world to create opportunities for migrants and the less fortunate. 60 MINUTES investigates a scheme putting us at risk on our roadways - the rise of dangerous commercial trucking fleets called chameleon carriers.

Oprah Winfrey has just flown the Duggar family, in late 2006, from their isolated farm in Arkansas to Chicago. She covers all accommodations for mom, dad, and their litter of (at the time) 17 kids and counting in exchange for an interview.   The Duggars are a well known reality TV family, iconic for their cult-like way of life. They looked like time travelers. A family plucked from the pre-electricity past and dropped in the middle of the big city.   Before they can even start filming, an anonymous email in all caps, lands in one of the producer's inboxes:   “…YOU NEED TO KNOW THE TRUTH… [REDACTED] HAS MOLESTED [REDACTED] WHILE [REDACTED] WERE SLEEPING AND THE PARENTS HAVE BEEN HIDING THIS SECRET FOR A LONG TIME…”   Oprah takes the tip seriously. She cancels their interview and forwards the email straight to the authorities and a child abuse hot line.   The email is later found to be sent by a [redacted] female. And not only that, the sender is right…   At least 3 Duggars have been arrested thus far, in addition to 1 police officer in connection with their case, all relating to crimes against children.         Full show notes available at RottenMangoPodcast.com Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
