Jill and Tom open this week's show addressing rumors of a coming Honda Accord model designed to compete directly with the popular Subaru Outback. The Honda wagon would--per rumor--enjoy a raised ride height, off-road trim, and standard AWD. Honda denies the rumor, though sources suggest the new Accord could be in showrooms for the 2030 model year. Also discussed this week is Audi's new large crossover, the Q9. With its new largest model, the German luxury carmaker looks to woo shoppers away from the likes of the BMW X7, Lexus LX, and Mercedes-Benz GLS. Listen in for prices and trim-level information. Still in the first segment, Jill reviews the 2026 Honda Prelude. The sporty 2-door to some degree replaces the discontinued Civic coupe in Honda showrooms, and is offered only as a hybrid. Listen in for Jill's take on this all-new Honda with a heritage name. In the second segment, the hosts welcome Dave Thomas of CDK Global to the podcast. Dave shares insights gleaned from a number of research projects conducted by CDK, including an owner study which suggests that EV operators are far happier with their vehicles than is commonly understood. Listen in for details. In the last segment, Jill is subjected to Tom's "Is it Turbocharged?" survey, which includes a Jack-in-the-Box menu-item bonus question.     Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Vinny Lingham is a Bitcoin OG who pioneered gift card payments in 2012 with Gyft, served on the board of the Bitcoin Foundation, spearheaded blockchain identity verification with CIvic, and in more recent years moved on to managing risk with Praxos Capital.

Can anyone truly succeed alone? We explore how role models, mentors, and strong social support make upward mobility far more possible than grit alone.Summary: What role do the people around us play in shaping our success? Brothers Danny and Gilbert Murillo share how education, mentorship, and their evolving relationship helped them overcome incarceration and systemic barriers to build lives of purpose. Then, Social Mobility Lab founder Bob McKinnon explains why success is never a solo journey and how recognizing our own "dream team" can expand what's possible for ourselves and others.How To Do This Practice:  Reflect on your journey: Think about where you are today and the moments that shaped your path. Consider both the opportunities you had and the challenges you overcame. Identify your dream team: Write down the people who have encouraged, protected, guided, or inspired you throughout your life. They might be family members, teachers, friends, mentors, coaches, or colleagues. Recognize their impact: For each person, note one way they helped you grow or see new possibilities. Notice how your achievements are connected not only to your own efforts, but also to the support you received. Look ahead with intention: Ask yourself what kind of support you need right now. Is there someone you could learn from, ask for advice, or build a stronger relationship with as you work toward your next goal? Move forward with self-compassion: As you pursue your goals, remember that success and setbacks are never yours alone. Focus on what you can control, ask for help when you need it, and offer yourself the same grace you'd extend to someone you care about.

"American Democrat" by James Fenimore Cooper examines the critical social and civic relations within the United States, highlighting the confusion surrounding essential principles that impact community happiness. Cooper addresses the prevalence of impractical notions that threaten societal stability, advocating for a clearer distinction between truth and prejudice. As he critiques the extremes of contemporary thought, his insights remain relevant today, prompting listeners to reflect on the importance of discerning fact from fiction in a world rife with misinformation.

如何用一句話形容Prelude？Type R的底盤基礎加上Civic e:HEV的動力系統，雖然如此，但三者在調校上還是有所不同！若就”小GT跑車”的觀點來看，Prelude視覺上熱血程度可能不太夠，但它真正想傳遞的是如滑翔翼般的絲滑與自在。Prelude雖說延用Civic的電油系統，但在S+ Shift及”模擬燃油車動力模式”的加持下，兩者的個性不太相同。另外，最讓人驚訝的是它的後懸吊竟然比師兄弟Civic、Type R還軟…！   #行動星球 #聊車挺好的 #Prelude #Honda #eHEV #電油車 -- Hosting provided by SoundOn

“I think our biggest hope, I know in writing this paper, was that people will understand that accessibility is more than a compliance issue. It's more than checklist at the end of your training development; that this is a human rights issue, this is the civil rights issue, and we need a mindset shift from compliance and from making individual accommodations and feeling like almost like, oh, we're doing that person a favor by accommodating them to totally shift that thinking to creatingaccessible, equitable environments where people can thrive and learn.” – Leah A. Roman The HPP Podcasts celebrates Disability Pride Month! Leah A. Roman and Nailah Henry join us to celebrate this observance through the lens of civic health equity.

Welcome to In Reality, the podcast about truth, disinformation andthe media with host Eric Schurenberg, long time journalist,now the founder of the Alliance for Trust in Media.Over the years, he's interviewed a number of people from the so-called bridge-building community. They've been researchers likeMatt Levendusky of University of Pennsylvania, Journalists likeAmanda Ripley, bridge builders like Monica Guzman, allconvinced that things would be better if Americans could just stopdemonizing their neighbors. Let's stipulate that's a worthy goal.Still, all of these movements face a similar problem: How do youscale listening skills? How long do the effects of civilconversations across political divides actually last?I'll put those questions to today's guests, Malka Kopell and PalmaStrand, the founders of 13-year old Civity.org. Kopell describesher background as a community organizer, but she's also been aprogram officer at the Hewlett Foundation and founding managingdirector of the Center on Philanthropy and Civil Society atStanford. Strand came to Civity after a career it law, teaching lawat Creighton University and the University of Marland andclerking for, among others, Supreme Court justice Byron White.The Civity insight is that relationships are key to building trust andtrust is fundamental to getting things done in a diverse society.Civity's recipe is to train local leaders—from mayors to citycouncils and nonprofit directors —to build relationships beforetackling contentious issues.It sounds great, but perhaps still subject to the issues of scale andpersistence facing all bridge builders. But let's let Civity'sfounders explain themselves why they believe their approachworks.Now, here's Malka Kopell and Palma Strand.Chapters00:00 Introduction to the Podcast and Guests01:03 Main Questions About Civil Conversations02:16 Introducing Civity and Its Work03:21 Types of Leaders Trained by Civity04:40 Founders' Backgrounds and Epiphanies08:31 What Makes Civity Different from Other Approaches10:00 The 'Conversation Before the Conversation'12:46 Relationship Building in Civic and Business Spheres15:02 Addressing Scale and Reach Challenges17:39 Engaging the Middle and Open-minded Communities21:34 Storytelling Guidelines and Listening Skills23:47 Media's Role in Societal Divides26:44 Media Narratives and Real-Life Community Stories29:23 Journalistic Approaches to Divisiveness31:20 AI's Impact on Society and Connection33:49 A Simple Civic Workshop for Neighborhoods35:45 Focusing on Differences and Complexity in Conversations36:20 Micro Interactions and Building Trust in Daily Life38:36 The Power of One-on-One Conversations39:28 Optimism vs. Pessimism About Society's Future40:39 Closing Remarks and Final ThoughtsWebsite - free episode transcriptswww.in-reality.fmAlliance for Trust in Mediaalliancefortrust.comProduced by Tom Platts at Sound Sapiensoundsapien.com

Civic centers are all the rage on red state campuses. Designed to reclaim and “save” the humanities, reinstate ideological diversity in higher ed, and bring back the Great Books, these centers are growing rapidly, even as the old school humanities wither away.

The Wealth Nobody Sees: Why Frugal Always Beats Flashy   For years, Earl Yaokasin drove a 20-year-old Honda Civic to his kids' private school and parked it as far from the entrance as possible. He did not want anyone to see the car. The lot was full of Bentleys. He felt the embarrassment. Then he started talking to those families. Most had almost no savings. Some were on scholarship. The image of wealth and the reality of wealth were completely different balance sheets. Earl, who had been eating half a $5 Subway footlong for lunch since his first years in America, was the one with money. The wealth nobody sees is usually the wealth that is actually there. This episode traces what real wealth building looks like: the frugality that does not feel like deprivation because it is intentional, the investing discipline that compounds because it is patient, and the economic conditions quietly forming right now that most people are not prepared for.   In This Episode: Why spending two levels below your means is a compounding strategy, not a sacrifice, and how it starts from the first grade The real cost of confusing frugal with cheap, and which one actually costs more money over a decade What Earl discovered when he stopped hiding his Civic and finally talked to the Bentley families Why most financial advisors are quietly in debt, and the one question that screens them out immediately The K-shaped economy: who benefits from current conditions and who is being quietly squeezed Why the 2022 inflation spike may have been wave one of three, based on a century of historical patterns How Earl's daughters absorbed financial discipline through behavior observed at home, not through lectures   Key Insights: A Morningstar study cited by Earl shows fewer than half of fund managers globally have even one dollar of their own money in the funds they manage. Ask your advisor if they invest in what they recommend. The answer narrows the field quickly. GDP last year would have approached zero percent if AI spending were removed from the calculation. The headline number is a mirage for most of the economy. The US government spent 6.5% more than it earned as a percentage of GDP in 2024, at levels seen historically only during the financial crisis and COVID. That is either preventing a recession or inflating a larger one. Kids learn financial behavior through observation, not instruction. Earl's daughters skip luxury goods not because they were told to, but because they have never watched their parents buy them. Great companies can surprise you to the upside in ways you will not predict. Earl's most expensive investing mistake was selling good companies because the price had risen past what he thought was fair value.   About Earl Yaokasin: Earl Yaokasin, CFA, is the founder of WealthArch Investment Services in Pasadena, CA, where he helps high-net-worth individuals and couples build wealth through value investing and personalized financial planning. With more than two decades of hands-on experience and a prestigious CFA designation, Earl blends the timeless principles of Warren Buffett with modern behavioral finance to help clients achieve financial independence.

Public health has an image problem. It rarely shows up until something goes wrong, which makes it one of the hardest things to fund and one of the easiest to underinvest in. This episode gets specific about what that underinvestment actually costs, and...

What is more American than entrepreneurship, not the faux version appropriated by heirs to affluent parents but the creation of small businesses by risk takers seeking to support their families, innovate goods and services, and invigorate their communities?  As Audrey Roofeh explains on this episode of Power Station, it was small business owners who gambled their own safety to take care of community members during Operation Metro Surge in Minneapolis by the US Department of Homeland Security and ICE. An entrepreneur herself, Audrey's firm Mariana Strategies, which helped federal agencies cultivate workplaces free from misogyny, racism and anti-LGBTQ conduct was put out of business by a White House executive order banning DEI initiatives by government contractors. Audrey heard the alarm expressed by fellow small business owners about sustainability in a marketplace where the Rule of Law no longer applied. She founded Integrity Matters, a unique association or small business owners impacted by tariffs, ICE crackdowns, inflation and unpredictable governance. Its members are now organizing to protect voters in upcoming elections, a powerful example of how small business owners invest in us.             

Drawing from his local and overseas architecture experience, recently appointed Plus Studio principal John Walsh, in this episode, unpacks how shared-use, hybrid buildings—blending education, civic, and commercial functions—are redefining how we design for density, community, and long-term value. From navigating security and adaptability to stretching the design brief for greater impact, this conversation looks at how architects can respond creatively to the pressures of urban growth.

Send us Fan MailYou can feel it before you can explain it: you show up, you speak, and it's like the decision was made before you walked in. Now zoom that feeling out from a meeting to an entire neighborhood and you start to see what civic alienation and political powerlessness do to real human lives. I wanted a quiet, solo conversation about what happens to a community when large groups of people stop believing their voice matters, and what kindness looks like when the stakes are high.We dig into what social science says about civic exclusion and community health. When people experience learned helplessness in civic life, the ripple effects can be brutal: trust in neighbors drops, volunteerism declines, and mental health suffers. I talk through research on social capital and why participation is not just a “politics” issue, but a community stability issue. I also lean on ideas from Robert Putnam and Robert Sampson to make sense of what strengthens communities, especially the concept of collective efficacy, that shared belief that we can act together and make things better.Then we ground it in stories: the Mothers of East Los Angeles organizing with dignity and persistence, civil rights era organizing in Lowndes County built on mutual care, and modern examples like mutual aid networks, community land trusts, and participatory budgeting. Finally, I share practical ways to respond with courage: listen to understand, show up in local rooms, learn your community's history, connect across difference, and remember that kindness is not neutral when someone is being excluded.If this lands with you, subscribe, share it with someone who feels unheard, and leave a review so more people can find these conversations.This podcast is a proud member of the Mayday Media Network — your go-to hub for podcast creators.

We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal. 250 years on, are these words still guiding us?The Declaration of Independence marked the start of our American Experiment. Does that document still hold central tenets of who we are as a nation? Deep political polarization has made that question murkier than perhaps ever before.We reflect on what a shared civic gospel looks like for America today and what role faith plays in that search.Find more of our programs online.

In this Fourth of July weekend episode, Tricia Friedman speaks with Colin Woodard, director of Nationhood Lab at Salve Regina University's Pell Center, about national identity, civic trust, polarization, and the stories that shape how people understand belonging. Woodard's work asks a question that belongs in every civics and history classroom: What story holds a nation together? Drawing from his background as a historian, journalist, and researcher, he explains why national identity is not abstract. It shapes how people understand who belongs, what freedom means, how communities make decisions, and what kind of future they believe is possible. The conversation explores two competing visions of the United States: one rooted in civic ideals and the promise of equal freedom, and another rooted in exclusion, hierarchy, and inherited identity. For K–12 educators, this framing offers a powerful way to help students examine founding ideals without simplifying the conflict, contradiction, and struggle embedded in the American story. Woodard also discusses polarization and why Americans may agree on more than they realize, even while political systems and media environments often push people into opposing camps. The episode closes with a look at social capital: the local relationships, associations, clubs, faith communities, civic groups, and shared spaces that help people know and trust one another. This episode is especially useful for history teachers, civics teachers, humanities educators, curriculum leaders, and school communities preparing for America 250. It invites educators to help students think about national stories not as slogans, but as living civic questions: Who belongs? What do we owe one another? What makes trust possible? What kind of community are we trying to build? Suggested classroom connections include civic identity, polarization, primary source inquiry, constitutional ideals, national myths, media literacy, local community research, social capital, civil discourse, and student reflection on belonging and responsibility.

As the United States approaches its 250th anniversary, national pride has hit a 25-year record low. The milestone itself has fractured into institutional tugs-of-war, with the official, non-partisan congressional commission America250 running parallel to Freedom 250, a heavily branded, politically aligned initiative launched out of the Trump White House. When even a milestone national birthday is split by competing political branding, it is easy to see why so many Americans feel exhausted, cynical, and ready to tune out.But opting out cedes the very narrative we need to reclaim.In this special episode of Outrage Overload, host David Beckemeyer steps back from the constant cycles of toxic polarization and media manipulation to explore the enduring power of America's foundational ideals: liberty, equality, and self-government. Through a series of thoughtful conversations with historians, political scientists, advocates, and students, we explore whether this anniversary is a celebration of a finished, perfect nation, or an invitation to sit with the uncomfortable friction of an ongoing democratic experiment. Text me your feedback and leave your contact info if you'd like a reply (this is a one-way text).

Chuck Todd delivers a genuinely heartfelt lament that America's 250th anniversary — a moment that should have been enormous — has been shrunk, cheapened, and ultimately ruined by a president who turned the country's birthday into his own political rally. He argues the American experiment is a remarkable achievement worth celebrating in full, that "a more perfect union" is the single greatest phrase in the founding documents precisely because it acknowledges the country is a perpetual work in progress, and that the 250th should have been a moment to celebrate American progress rather than run from American history — to recognize that America is fundamentally an idea rather than an ethnicity. Instead, Trump has made the nation's birthday about Donald Trump: he created his own version of the celebration, turned "The Great American Fair" into a dud, and once again demonstrated his belief that everyone and everything must accommodate him. He says he feels genuinely betrayed watching the brand of America get sullied and cheapened this way, and argues the country desperately needs a president capable of rising above himself — something Trump has proven, again and again, he simply cannot do. He finds a silver lining in the Supreme Court blocking Trump's attempt to end birthright citizenship, arguing it proves this is a conservative court but not purely a Trump court — though he's sharply critical of the Court's campaign finance ruling, which he frames as a straightforward bailout of the Republican Party.. He closes by looking ahead: the Colorado primaries raised the question of whether the DSA movement has truly broken through. Then, Debbie Cox Bultan — CEO of the NewDEAL, a network of center-left state and local elected officials focused on delivering results rather than fighting culture wars — joins the Chuck Toddcast to make the case for the unglamorous, often-overlooked pragmatic wing of the Democratic Party. Bultan argues that the center-left's defining challenge is structural and almost temperamental: moderates and pragmatists are, by their very nature, not the loud part of the coalition, which means they get drowned out. She rejects the premise that "fighting the other side" has to mean yelling, argues that governing effectively is still the best way for talented officials to rise through the ranks. Bultan notes a crucial asymmetry that gives her hope: the left has not actually dominated Democratic primaries the way the right has captured GOP primaries, in part because the perception of electability matters far more to base Democratic voters than it does to the Republican base — and she points to how even Mamdani's focus on affordability carried genuine cross-party appeal as evidence that pragmatic, results-oriented messaging still works. The conversation digs into the deeper tensions facing the party heading into a favorable 2026 and a wide-open 2028. Bultan introduces the concept of "pragmatic disruption" — the idea that the people who genuinely want to disrupt a broken system actually need government to work to do it. Bultan argues the leadership of key left-leaning interest groups has drifted much further left than the actual Democratic electorate, advises candidates to stop answering interest-group questionnaires that force them into litmus-test corners, and warns that base voters can become obsessed with issues only 1% of the electorate actually cares about. She frames this moment — with Trump as a uniquely norm-breaking figure and the country's 250th anniversary approaching — as the perfect opening for a serious conversation about democracy reform. Finally, he presents his ToddCast Top 5 list of the best fictional presidents seen on TV & movies and answers listeners’ questions in the “Ask Chuck” segment.

This is it, the final episode! Danny gives us his closing arguments, reflecting on all he's learned about the data center fight in communities across the United States. We listen in on Danny's conversation with prolific author and tech critic Cory Doctorow about the centaur/reverse centaur theory of how we use technology and how technology uses us. And, we take another quick trip to some of the communities we've visited along the way: Data Center Alley in Northern Virginia, Davis, West Virginia, and Memphis, Tennessee, to get the latest on their fights. When it's all said and done, the greatest lesson from the data center clashes may be in the value of agency, and that the way to protect communities from harmful data centers is to ensure that technology serves communities, not the other way around.In this episode, we hear from:Cory Doctorow: Science fiction author, activist and journalist whose recent books include “Enshittification: Why Everything Suddenly Got Worse And What To Do About It” and “The Reverse Centaur's Guide To Life After AI.”Nikki Forrester: Helped launch Tucker United, now serves as the director of communications and spokesperson, lives in Tucker County, WV, and is a journalist. Elena Schlossenberg: Our local tour guide, and deeply involved in grassroots organizing in Prince William County and Loudoun County.

You might just be able to hear the explosion of the fireworks over the explosion of rhetoric upon the 250th anniversary of the founding of the United States of America. Aiming to shed more light than heat, Dad and I discuss The Declaration of Independence (July 4, 1776) from a theological perspective. Civic good is not the ultimate good, but it's not a negligible one, either. We find good reasons as Christians to support the American project, its self-corrections, and onward attempts to attain a more perfect union. Notes: 1.
