For over a century, mysterious glowing orbs have appeared over the forests of North Carolina — lights that move with intelligence, defy scientific explanation, and leave witnesses questioning reality itself. The Brown Mountain Lights are one of America's most famous unsolved paranormal phenomena, but what are they really? In this episode, we dive deep into the chilling mystery of the Brown Mountain Lights, exploring the documented sightings, historical accounts, scientific investigations, and the strange lore surrounding these unexplained glowing spheres. Are these lights natural atmospheric phenomena, plasma formations, or something far more disturbing hiding in the wilderness? We break down the history of sightings dating back to early Native American legends, Civil War reports, and modern eyewitness encounters describing floating lights, intelligent movement patterns, and eerie behaviors that challenge conventional physics. Through detailed analysis, we examine geological explanations, piezoelectric effects, swamp gas theories, ball lightning, and tectonic stress luminescence — while also exploring the possibility of unknown natural processes or unexplained entities.

This video explores the science behind unexplained lights, atmospheric anomalies, electromagnetic phenomena, and environmental conditions that could create luminous orbs. We also examine speculation involving interdimensional activity, paranormal entities, cryptid connections, and hidden government experiments. Could the Brown Mountain Lights represent a natural process science has yet to fully understand, or do they point toward something beyond current human knowledge? We analyze eyewitness testimony, photographic evidence, and research conducted by the United States Geological Survey and other investigators who attempted to explain the phenomenon. Why do the lights appear in specific locations? Why do they seem to react to observers? And why has no definitive explanation been confirmed despite decades of study? If you enjoy deep dives into unexplained mysteries, paranormal phenomena, cryptids, supernatural encounters, and scientific speculation, this Roanoke Tales investigation explores the evidence, theories, and lore surrounding one of the most famous unexplained events in American history. From atmospheric physics to folklore, from scientific theory to unsettling speculation, we uncover what might truly be happening on Brown Mountain — and why the lights continue to appear. Some mysteries refuse to stay buried. #BrownMountainLights #ParanormalMystery #UnexplainedPhenomena

Born in Frankfurt to a prominent religious family, Jacob Schiff (1847-1920) was raised in the milieu of Rav Samson Raphael Hirsch's Frankfurt, before migrating to the United States in 1865. Rising rapidly in the investment banking world of Wall Street during the post Civil War economic boom, Schiff emerged as both an exemplary philanthropist, distributing his vast wealth to myriad Jewish causes in America and worldwide, as well as cementing himself as the undisputed leader of American Jewry. Particularly close to his heart was the plight of Russian Jewry under the brutal Czarist regime, and he lobbied for unrestricted immigration to the United States, assisting Jewish immigrants once they arrived. He also financed Japan in the Russo-Japanese War, which led to Japan defeating the Russian Navy. Jacob Schiff's legacy in philanthropy and leadership is largely unmatched in the annals of American Jewish history.  Subscribe to Jewish History Soundbites Podcast on: PodBean: https://jsoundbites.podbean.com/ or your favorite podcast platform Follow us on LinkedIn, Twitter or Instagram at @Jsoundbites For sponsorship opportunities about your favorite topics of Jewish history or feedback contact Yehuda at: yehuda@yehudageberer.com

In this thought-provoking installment, a Confederate soldier during the Civil War stumbles upon a quiet, deserted town where time seems to have stopped.

In 1861, one man and a “gas bag” filled with hydrogen sparked America's obsession with going higher, farther, into the unknown. In this episode, Roman and journalist Jack Hitt tell the story of Thaddeus Lowe — showman, scientist, and dreamer — whose balloon flight from Cincinnati went wildly off course and straight into the Civil War. Lowe pivoted to create the US military's first aerial reconnaissance unit, a precursor to the Air Force, and today his legacy spans generations— stretching all the way to the dark side of the moon.

Confederate forces surrendered to Union forces in Appomattox Court House, Virginia in April of 1865. But many people in Texas were still living under slavery. The Emancipation Proclamation had gone into effect in January of 1863 in places under Union control. But Union forces did not arrive to enforce emancipation in Texas until June of 1865. That is why we celebrate Juneteenth— to recognize the day that the people enslaved in Texas were finally freed. And while Juneteenth is the most famous holiday recognizing emancipation, different communities have held their own celebrations since the end of the Civil War. This hour, we’re recognizing Juneteenth by taking a look at celebrations past and present. We’ll take a look at the history of Emancipation Days and how they’ve been documented, and we’ll hear from one of the organizers of this year’s Juneteenth celebration in New Haven. GUESTS: Blair LM Kelley: President and Director of the National Humanities Center. Her books include Black Folk: The Roots of the Black Working Class and her latest book, Black Freedom: A Visual History of Juneteenth and Emancipation Days. Dr. Hanan Hameen: Founder of the Artsucation Academy Network, Co-Founder of the Official Juneteenth Coalition of Greater New Haven and award-winning choreographer and educator.

The Gilded Age has become one of the most common analogies for our own time, invoked as shorthand for economic inequality and political corruption. But that comparison misses much of what made the period extraordinary. After the Civil War, the United States experienced an incredible period of economic growth that completely transformed American life and landscapes.In this episode of The Human Progress Podcast, economic historian Brian Domitrovic joins our managing editor Chelsea Follett to discuss why the conventional story of the Gilded Age is incomplete, how industrialization made ordinary Americans better off, and what we can learn from the triumphs of the Gilded Age.

This week, Emily Bazelon, John Dickerson, and David Plotz discuss whether this week's resumption of open hostilities in the Iran war has changed the likelihood of an imminent end to the conflict, what to do about how California's slow vote-counting emboldens Trump's cries of election foul, and the most hotly contested D.C. mayoral election in a generation with guest Mike Schaffer from City Cast DC.For this week's Slate Plus bonus episode, Emily, John, and David discuss how the online shaming of one couple for their reproductive decision has deformed an already hard conversation about disability, quality of life, and what we owe each other. The hosts try to hold all of it at once as they consider this viral story that sits at the intersection of disability rights and reproductive autonomy. In the latest Gabfest Reads, John Dickerson talks with Bloomberg columnist Adrian Wooldridge about his new book The Revolutionary Center: The Lost Genius of Liberalism. In a moment when American democracy is under assault from authoritarian populists and dogmatic progressives, Wooldridge argues that liberalism itself offers the most resilient framework for pluralistic, self-correcting societies.

Detroit's drink is turning 160, and there's a big Vernors party in Eastern Market to celebrate. Today, Jer heads into one of the largest Vernors collections anywhere with Keith Wunderlich, founder of the Vernors Club, to talk about how a Civil War–era pharmacy experiment became a Detroit icon. We get into the history behind "Detroit's Drink," from the original Woodward bottling plant to the family business days and beyond, and why the Vernors story still resonates with Detroit's legacy of manufacturing and great food. Then, we look ahead to Sunday's street celebration on Riopelle in Eastern Market, where the Vernors Club is marking the 160th anniversary. Expect a Vernors brunch at Marrow in the Market (yes, gnome waffles and Vernors barbecue), special cocktails, a Boston Cooler cream ale from Eastern Market Brewing, Vernors cream ale tastings, and Milk & Froth scooping Vernors ice cream and floats for the first time since the 1980s. It's family-friendly, too, with Henry the Hatter making gnome hats for kids, coloring tables, and even the Vernors gnome and James Vernor V on hand. If you love Detroit, this one's for you.

Citizen McCain celebrates its 200th episode with Meghan McCain and Miranda Wilkins diving into the stories dominating politics and culture right now. Meghan and Miranda react to a viral Turning Point speech about motherhood, faith, and the future of the conservative movement, sparking a candid conversation about family, fertility, and whether women without children are being pushed out of the political conversation. Then, Ryan Girdusky joins the show to break down the shocking Democratic Senate primary victory of Graham Platner in Maine, the growing questions surrounding his past, and what it could mean for Susan Collins and control of the U.S. Senate. The conversation also turns overseas as violent anti-immigration protests erupt in Northern Ireland following a horrific attack in Belfast. Ryan explains how immigration policy, asylum laws, and cultural tensions have pushed the United Kingdom toward a political breaking point.

The Last Trade: Matt Dines, CIO of Build Asset Management, joins to lay out the seismic monetary reshuffling underway in 2026, the unwind of the post-Bretton-Woods offshore-dollar system that ran the global economy from 1971 to 2022, why LIBOR's deprecation and the SOFR transition quietly moved the dollar's command center from London to New York, Scott Bessent's strategy to monetize the asset side of the Treasury balance sheet through the GENIUS Act stablecoin and a Bitcoin reserve targeting 1 million BTC, Tether's December 2023 alignment with the American Sovereignist movement, and the contrarian read on MicroStrategy as a "dollar strategy" rather than a Bitcoin strategy.---

Karmelo Anthony was found guilty of murder and sentenced to 35 years in prison for the murder of Austin Metcalf. The multiracial jury took just two and a half hours to find Anthony guilty, despite a lesser charge of manslaughter being on the table. Glenn lays out the facts of the case, what may come next, and the racial undertones that still surround it. Who taught Karmelo Anthony that bringing a knife and using lethal force in response to a minor altercation was appropriate? Glenn also analyzes the horrifying attempted beheading of a man in Ireland. Glenn lays out some concerning facts that show that despite being the most connected, younger generations are experiencing a loneliness epidemic. Glenn warns of a society where the government is the arbiter of truth about its own elections, or else you get potential fraud like what's happening in California. Glenn gives three warnings about the Left's support for controversial Maine Senate candidate Graham Platner. Lastly, Glenn brings in Jason to further discuss the attempted beheading of a man in Belfast, Ireland; the Bubba effect; and the potential fraud coming out of California's elections.

More To The Story: Heather Cox Richardson is one of today's unlikeliest social media stars. The Boston College historian has been teaching and writing about 19th-century America, Reconstruction, and the Civil War for decades. But it was only in 2019 that her work took off when she began writing her daily newsletter, Letters from an American, a no-nonsense analysis of the news through the lens of US history. The newsletter became one of the most popular on Substack. And today, Richardson has millions of loyal fans who rely on her to make sense of American politics and provide a little sanity and democratic reassurance even as she herself is concerned about the direction of the country today. On this week's More To The Story, Richardson talks about the decades-long failure to hold corrupt American leaders accountable, the still-resonant death of Reconstruction, and what she sees as the tragic hypocrisy of Thomas Jefferson.Producer: Josh Sanburn | Editor: Kara McGuirk-Allison | Theme music: Fernando Arruda and Jim Briggs | Copy editor: Daniel King | Digital producer: Artis Curiskis | Intern: Joni Binder | Deputy executive producer: Taki Telonidis | Executive producer: Brett Myers | Executive editor: James West | Host: Al LetsonRead: Trump's War on History (Mother Jones)Listen: As the Trump Administration Erases History, These Writers Are Keeping It Alive (Reveal)Read: Letters from an American (Substack)Read: Democracy Awakening: Notes on the State of America (Penguin Books) Donate today at Revealnews.org/more Subscribe to our weekly newsletter at Revealnews.org/weekly Follow us on Instagram and Bluesky Learn about your ad choices: dovetail.prx.org/ad-choices

It's something scientists have never observed before: chimpanzees, formerly with close family bonds, now engaging in deadly combat. A recent study looked at one of the largest groups of chimps in the world, which primatologists have been observing since 1995. For decades, the group thrived, but recently, factions have broken off, and fighting has turned deadly-- and scientists aren't sure why. Host Caryn Ceolin is speaking with Dr. John Mitani, one of the researchers who's been observing the chimps, and an author of the paper, about what's going on between the primates-- and what we might be able to learn from it.

The countdown reaches the most divisive Avengers title. Adam makes the case that Avengers: Age of Ultron isn't a bad movie so much as a conflicted one, the first Marvel tentpole that put serving the wider universe ahead of being its own thing. Along the way: the tonal whiplash that kills every death scene, the Whedon dialogue problem, and a deep dive into how the Agents of SHIELD and Inhumans experiment, a Perlmutter mandate born of X-Men envy, was the original dry run for the "homework" problem that would later sink the Multiverse Saga. A solid but bottom-of-the-Avengers 4 out of 5. Next week: Civil War.

Don and Tom explore the difference between smart risk and dumb risk in investing, sparked by new survey data showing younger investors increasingly believe they must take big risks to achieve their financial goals. They discuss the rise in stock trading, options speculation, and meme-stock behavior, contrasting those activities with evidence-based risks such as broad stock market investing, factor tilts, and maintaining efficient use of cash. They also answer a listener question from a recently retired investor concerned about market valuations and inflation, discussing small-value tilts, bond allocations, and the role of TIPS. Along the way, they wander into Roman and Han Dynasty history, retirement boredom, Don's Civil War novel, podcast economics, and the launch of the newly redesigned Talking Real Money website.0:05 Podcasting economics, removing ads, and the realities of making money from podcasts2:34 Why investors believe they need to take bigger risks to reach financial goals4:26 The growth of indexing and the shift away from active investing4:59 FINRA survey shows younger investors embracing options and speculative trading6:25 Smart risk versus dumb risk and why experience changes risk perception7:04 Options, IPOs, hot stocks, crypto, and other forms of speculative risk8:07 Research on options trading success rates and why most traders lose money8:48 Individual stocks, market timing, and sector bets that historically have not paid off10:47 Risks that may be worth taking, including all-stock portfolios for younger investors11:22 The long-term case for owning the global economy through diversified stock funds11:55 Small-cap, value, profitability, and momentum factor tilts12:37 The hidden cost of idle cash and improving returns through better cash management13:42 Why inflation is guaranteed to beat most traditional bank savings accounts14:59 Roman and Han Dynasty history and what it says about long-term economic growth15:42 The new Talking Real Money website and easier ways to submit questions17:34 Listener question from a 58-year-old retiree using a Boglehead four-fund portfolio19:15 Whether adding a small-value tilt makes sense in retirement20:41 Thoughts on bond funds, TIPS, and inflation protection22:02 Short-term Treasury ETFs versus high-yield savings accounts23:11 Avoiding emotional reactions to market valuations24:03 Retirement longevity risk and planning for a potentially decades-long retirement24:52 Don discusses researching and writing The Line Uncrossed27:32 Meet-an-Advisor invitation and how the free portfolio review process worksQuestions?

The Confederacy lost the Civil War, but the myth it built afterward never really died. In this episode, we unpack the Lost Cause: the postwar propaganda campaign that recast slavery as “states' rights,” turned Confederate leaders into martyrs, and helped justify monuments, textbooks, and generations of historical denial. From secession documents to Black Union soldier massacres, Confederate prisons, and the rise of groups like the United Daughters of the Confederacy, this episode traces how a failed slaveholding rebellion was rebranded as noble heritage. The Confederacy was not misunderstood. It was rebranded.

SHORT TITLE OPTIONS Lindsey Graham: The Real Return? SC GOP Breaks Open The Machine vs. the Movement Trump, Graham & the Primary War “Anybody But Lindsey?” DESCRIPTION South Carolina's Republican politics erupt in a fiery Election Day broadcast as deep divisions inside the GOP collide with renewed attacks on Senator Lindsey Graham's record, particularly his role during the Russia collusion investigations. The episode features a sweeping discussion of establishment power in Washington and Columbia, alongside interviews with conservative challengers pushing anti-corruption platforms, judicial reform, and major restructuring of state government. From immigration enforcement frustrations to claims of uniparty control, the conversation paints a picture of a Republican Party at war with itself—while voters head to the polls to decide its future direction. EPISODE SUMMARY Today's broadcast centers on a sharp political critique of Senator Lindsey Graham, arguing that his public posture shifts depending on electoral timing and political pressure, particularly in relation to the Trump era and the Russia collusion investigations. The discussion revisits the Russiagate period, describing it as a defining moment in modern Republican distrust of federal institutions and intelligence leadership, while alleging that key officials and lawmakers played roles in expanding or legitimizing the investigation. Layered into the conversation are broader South Carolina political themes, including frustration with immigration enforcement policy, claims of entrenched “machine politics” in Columbia, and skepticism toward establishment Republican leadership. The program also features extended candidate interviews from the state's Republican primary races, where contenders for attorney general and governor lay out competing visions focused on judicial reform, tax reduction, anti-corruption enforcement, and expanding executive power. As Election Day unfolds, the episode frames the vote as a referendum on both state leadership and the direction of the Republican Party itself. KEY TOPICS Lindsey Graham and GOP establishment criticism Russia collusion / Russiagate political legacy South Carolina “political machine” allegations Immigration enforcement debate in SC GOP primary dynamics and voter turnout Judicial reform proposals Income tax elimination and fiscal policy Attorney General race coverage Governor race policy platforms Republican Party internal conflict CHAPTERS 00:00 — Election Day and South Carolina GOP tensions 06:45 — “Machine politics” and establishment control claims 13:30 — Immigration enforcement frustrations in SC 20:10 — Lindsey Graham and Russiagate controversy revisited 31:25 — Trump-era investigations and political fallout 42:00 — Attorney General candidate interviews begin 50:15 — Judicial reform and corruption arguments 59:40 — Tax cuts, education, and executive power expansion 1:08:30 — Governor's race and legislative power struggle 1:18:00 — Final Election Day messaging and voter appeal SOUND BITES “That machine has been in place for years.” “He'll be one version during the election—and another after.” “The Russia collusion narrative shaped everything that followed.” “This is a job interview for the governor's office.” “The governor should lead from the front.” “Anybody but the machine.” SOCIAL MEDIA POST (FACEBOOK)

With the death of Vasily I, Moscow sees its first contested succession in generations.

In this episode, Kim Bearden, executive director of Elmwood Cemetery in Memphis shares how a search for a journalism job led her to Elmwood in 1998 and how the cemetery became what she now describes as her second home. Founded in 1852, Elmwood is the oldest active cemetery in Memphis and holds the stories of roughly 80,000 people. Bearden discusses the cemetery's role in preserving Memphis history, from yellow fever victims and Civil War burials to musicians, writers, civic leaders and everyday Memphians whose lives reflect the city's complicated past. The conversation also explores the practical work of running a historic cemetery, including monument preservation, tree care, records, tours, events and long-term planning as Elmwood looks ahead to a future with less available burial space. Bearden explains the meaning behind symbols found on Victorian monuments, shares stories of some of Elmwood's notable burials and discusses how historic cemeteries can help communities understand memory, grief, faith and the history of its people. This episode is sponsored by Premier Primary Care of Union City, Tenn.

It's the world's largest humanitarian crisis, yet aid groups say it has received far too little attention. As Sudan's civil war enters its fourth year, nearly two out of every five people face emergency-level hunger and humanitarian officials warn the crisis has been compounded by the closure of the Strait of Hormuz.

It's Marvel Monday and Ant-Man teams up with The Wasp! ABOUT ANT-MAN AND THE WASP As Scott Lang balances being both a superhero and a father, Hope van Dyne and Dr. Hank Pym present an urgent new mission that finds the Ant-Man fighting alongside The Wasp to uncover secrets from their past. AIR DATE & NETWORK FOR ANT-MAN AND THE WASP July 6, 2018 | Theatrical Release CAST & CREW OF ANT-MAN AND THE WASP Director: Peyton Reed Writers: Chris McKenna, Erik Sommers, Paul Rudd Cast: Paul Rudd as Scott Lang/Ant-Man Evangeline Lilly as Hope Van Dyne/The Wasp Michael Peña as Luis Walton Goggins as Sonny Burch Hannah John-Kamen as Ava Starr/Ghost Randall Park as Jimmy Woo Michelle Pfeiffer as Janet Van Dyne Laurence Fishburne as Dr. Bill Foster/Goliath Michael Douglas as Dr. Hank Pym BRAN'S MOVIE SYNOPSIS We open with a flashback to the days when Hank Pym and Janet van Dyne were the original Ant-Man and Wasp. Things are going great until Janet gets trapped in the Quantum Realm, which, as it turns out, is not an ideal vacation destination. Fast forward to after the events of Civil War. Scott Lang is nearing the end of his house arrest and trying to stay out of trouble. Hank and Hope briefly open a tunnel to the Quantum Realm, which somehow causes Scott to have a vision of Janet as a little girl playing hide-and-seek. Instead of questioning any of this, everyone decides it's proof that Janet is still alive. Hope and Hank kidnap Scott, replacing him with a giant ant wearing his ankle monitor. The trio sets out to rescue Janet, but first they need a special part from shady businessman Sonny Burch. Sonny immediately realizes there's money to be made and betrays them, leading to a fight with a mysterious masked woman called Ghost, who steals Hank's entire portable laboratory. Trying to get their lab back, they visit Hank's old partner Bill Foster, who explains that Ghost is actually Ava Starr, the daughter of another former colleague whose experiment went very, very wrong. Ava is now phasing in and out of existence and is constantly in pain. Her plan? Steal Janet's Quantum Realm energy to save herself. The only problem is that doing so might kill Janet. Meanwhile, Janet starts sending messages from the Quantum Realm and provides directions. She warns them they only have a couple of hours before the Quantum Realm decides to strand them for another hundred years. Things get complicated. Sonny learns where they are. The FBI arrests Hank and Hope. Ava steals the lab. It's alot but also nothing. Eventually, Scott helps everyone escape, they recover the lab, and Hank ventures into the Quantum Realm to rescue Janet. He finds her alive, looking surprisingly well for someone who's spent decades trapped in a dimension beyond space and time. What follows is a giant chase across San Francisco featuring shrinking buildings, growing cars, a whole lot of size changing. While Scott and Hope deal with Sonny and Ghost, Hank successfully brings Janet home. Rather than holding a grudge, Janet uses her Quantum powers to stabilize Ava and save her life. In the end, Scott finally completes his house arrest, Sonny gets arrested, Ava and Bill go into hiding, and everyone seems happy. But then the mid-credits scene happens. And it's no longer happy go lucky time. Scott heads back into the Quantum Realm to collect healing energy for Ava. Just as he's ready to come home, Hank, Hope, and Janet all turn to dust thanks to Thanos. Scott is left trapped in the Quantum Realm.

There is a particular kind of loneliness that hits in the middle of a full life. Not because you are isolated. Because the relationships that used to hold you steady are all being renegotiated at once. Your kids have left. A parent has died. A marriage needs new terms. A friendship has frayed. And the cultural rituals that once helped people move through moments like this are mostly gone.Bruce Feiler has spent the last three years traveling to 26 countries, attending over 100 ceremonies, and interviewing hundreds of people to understand what happens when we stop gathering in intentional ways. He's a seven-time New York Times bestselling author and the creator of the LifeQuakes framework. His new book, A Time to Gather, makes the case that we are living through both a celebration recession and a ritual renaissance at the same time.In this conversation, Bruce and Jonathan explore what it actually means to feel homesick in your own home, why the four traditional life rituals no longer match the lives most of us are actually living, and what it looks like to design a ritual from scratch when the ones you inherited don't fit.What you'll explore in this conversation:Why 5,000 Civil War soldiers were officially diagnosed as dying of homesickness, and what that history reveals about the longing you feel nowThe five building blocks of any ritual, from drawing the circle to creating a web of hope, and how to use them to mark a moment that mattersWhy Bruce calls this a celebration recession: what we stopped doing, when, and what's quietly replacing itThe live ritual Bruce helps Jonathan design in real time, walking through every step from welcome to closeWhy rituals are not just for grief and weddings, and the new ceremonies people are creating for divorce, mastectomies, miscarriages, sobriety, and career endingsIf you have ever felt the ground shift under you and not known how to steady yourself with the people you love most, this is the conversation for it.You can find Bruce at: Website | Instagram | Episode TranscriptNext week, we're sharing our conversation with Stanford professor Tina Seelig to talk about something most of us have completely backwards: how luck actually works, and why most of what we call luck is the result of deliberate actions hiding in plain sight. If you have ever wondered why some people seem to catch every break while others keep missing them, this is going to change the way you see that.

Don and Tom question whether the investment industry—and increasingly Vanguard—keeps creating new products simply to stay relevant rather than solve real investor problems. They critique Vanguard's new Target Retirement Lifetime Income Fund, which combines a target-date fund with an annuity, arguing that it sacrifices liquidity, introduces inflation risk, and obscures costs. They also take aim at Vanguard's new Active/Passive Model Portfolio Series, suggesting it adds unnecessary complexity and market-timing assumptions to what should be a straightforward indexing approach. Listener questions cover the risks of holding 72% of retirement assets in an ESOP and whether a military family should replace a simple Schwab index-fund portfolio for their two-year-old daughter with AVGE. The episode closes with a plug for The Line Uncrossed and a discussion of the real-life Civil War experiences that inspired the novel.0:12 Do investors really need new products and new ideas?2:11 Vanguard's Target Retirement Lifetime Income Fund and annuities in target-date funds4:29 Liquidity, inflation risk, and the tradeoffs of guaranteed retirement income7:44 Why immediate annuities often take years just to return your own principal9:16 Morningstar's skepticism of guaranteed-income retirement products10:46 Vanguard's new Dynamic Active Passive Model Portfolio Series12:42 Are active/passive hybrid portfolios solving a real problem?13:38 Has Vanguard lost its indexing compass?15:30 New Talking Real Money website features and submitting listener questions16:12 ESOP question: 72% of retirement assets tied to employer stock17:59 The dangers of concentrated company-stock positions21:29 Understanding ESOP returns versus traditional investments24:09 Why diversification matters more than past ESOP performance26:49 Using GI Bill benefits, a 529 plan, and a UTMA to fund a child's future28:27 AVGE versus a simple total-market index portfolio for a young child29:42 Why simplicity may be good enough for long-term investing success30:35 Discussion of The Line Uncrossed and its Civil War inspiration31:41 John B.

What do Civil War pension files reveal about one of history's most successful slave rebellions? Historian Edda Fields-Black joins Roman to trace a story of fire, flight, and freedom — beginning on a South Carolina rice plantation in 1863, where a Union raid liberated over 700 people in a single night. By unearthing Black soldiers' testimonies buried in military pension applications, they resurrect not just the raid, but the lives and communities it transformed.
