As Andrew puts it, Chief Justice John Roberts is “cherry-picking.” He's flying solo in this short edition of Main Justice (more to come with Mary in the next episode). Andrew gives a quick briefing on several of the Supreme Court's most consequential end-of-term rulings, starting with the decision not to hear an appeal in the E. Jean Carroll case. Andrew also touches on the Court's decision to uphold a Mississippi law to allow mail-in ballots that are sent by Election Day to be counted but saves his deepest analysis for two similar cases with opposing decisions: the firings of Lisa Cook and Rebecca Slaughter. While the Court ruled that the Trump administration must have cause to dismiss Cook from the Federal Reserve, it allowed the government to fire Slaughter from the Federal Trade Commission, a decision which Andrew calls deeply flawed showing the conservative majority's support for a “unitary executive.” And finally, Andrew breaks down the Court's narrow decision to uphold birthright citizenship, and why the tight 5-4 split is the story.

The end is nigh! Or, the end of this Supreme Court term is nigh, at least. On the second to last day of this term, the court's right wingers delivered a sweeping ruling that will reshape the federal government for years to come. In Trump v. Slaughter, the conservative supermajority voted 6-3 to allow the president to fire members of independent regulatory agencies—overturning Humphrey's Executor, a 91-year-old unanimous precedent—and handing Trump effective control over agencies that regulate consumer protection, nuclear energy, union activity, mine safety, and more. But the Roberts majority weren't quite ready to hand the nation's credit card (and their investment portfolios) over to the mad king, and so the Federal Reserve got a carve-out in a separate 5-4 ruling in Trump v. Cook. How did they reach these wildly different conclusions in such closely related cases? Justice Roberts offered a barely argued rationale, but who needs a rationale if your red lines are painted in a crimson of pure cynicism?The court also handed down a significant Fourth Amendment ruling on geofence warrants, with Justice Kagan writing for a 6-3 majority that such warrants constitute a "search" under the Fourth Amendment. And in Watson v. Republican National Committee, the court upheld state laws allowing mail-in ballots postmarked by Election Day to be counted if they arrive shortly after. But the squeaker of a 5-4 majority was deeply alarming in a case that played to some of the justices' fox-brained ideas about election fraud. Justice Alito and his fellow dissenters appear to have signed onto the wholly unsupported view that Democrat wins are always suspect, and the only way to restore trust in voting is to restrict voting.

In part one of our Supreme Court decisions coverage, Charles C. W. Cooke, Richard Epstein, and John Yoo break down the decisions handed down today, beginning with the Court's treatment of presidential removal power in Trump v. Slaughter and Trump v. Cook (no relation) —the first apparently overruling Humphrey's Executor for ordinary agencies, the second preserving a major carveout for the Federal Reserve. They also debate Chatrie v. United States, a Fourth Amendment case involving law enforcement's use of geofencing warrants and cellphone location data, and close with Watson v. Republican National Committee, in which Justice Amy Coney Barrett held that states may count mail-in ballots received after Election Day unless Congress clearly says otherwise. Along the way, the hosts argue over the administrative state, judicial independence, election integrity, and whether the Roberts Court is as predictable—or as partisan—as its critics claim. Part two will be on Thursday, with a decision expected on (cue dramatic music)...birthright citizenship!
Rage on Moorea and Farewell to Mai. Guest Author: Hampton Sides. Tensions escalated on the island of Mooreaduring the "Goat Incident," where the theft of a pregnant nanny goat triggered a "scorched earth" campaign from Cook. He destroyed huts and canoes in a disproportionate rage that shocked his officers. Sides suggests this was a desperate attempt to protect Mai's future property by making an example of theft. After dropping Mai off at Huahine in a bittersweet farewell, the ships turned toward Alaska. Mai eventually died of disease a few years later, failing to reclaim his ancestral lands despite his English weapons. Cook, meanwhile, was increasingly seen by his men as a "darker" version of his former self as he pushed north. 51899 FIJI
The Death of a Legend at Kealakekua Bay. Guest Author: Hampton Sides. Cook returned to Hawaii in 1779, arriving during the Makahiki festival. The Hawaiians perceived him as the god Lono, and Cook played along to restock his ships. Tensions rose after the festival ended and a broken mast forced a return to the bay. The theft of a boat led Cook to attempt to kidnap the Hawaiian King, resulting in a violent melee on the beach. Cook, who could not swim, was killed by warriors. Today, a monument stands at the site, though it remains a place of controversy for Native Hawaiians who view Cook as a symbol of colonialism. The voyage concluded as a foundational event of the Enlightenment and a tragic end for a complex explorer. 81860 COOK MONUMENT
The Perils of the Northwest Coast. Guest Author: Hampton Sides. Cook mapped the coastline from Oregon to Alaska, enduring foul weather and perpetual fog. While the Spanish sought to arrest him for encroaching on their territory, Benjamin Franklin ordered American captains to protect Cook's scientific mission. The expedition spent a month repairing ships at Nootka Sound, interacting peacefully with the Mowachaht people. Cook meticulously charted the Alaskan coast, even navigating by the sound of walruses in low visibility. However, upon reaching the Bering Sea, he encountered the "ice blink" and an impenetrable wall of ice, proving the "open sea" theory wrong. Threatened by the encroaching pack ice, Cook was forced to retreat, abandoning the search for the season. 71810 DEATH OF COOK
The Discovery of Hawaii. Guest Author: Hampton Sides. In late 1777, Cook accidentally discovered the Hawaiian Islands, starting with Kauai. The Hawaiians, who had never seen smoking or pockets, dubbed the sailors "volcano people." Cook realized these were Polynesians, leading him to marvel at the Polynesian diaspora and their incredible voyaging skills. Although he was in a hurry to reach Alaska, he went ashore unarmed to observe their sophisticated civilization, noting advanced aqueducts and agriculture. This find was historically significant, providing the first written description of Hawaiian culture, yet Cook refused to linger or explore the rest of the chain, driven by a frantic timeline to find the Northwest Passage. 61785 DEATH OF COOK
Tahiti and the Challenges of Resettling Mai. Guest Author: Hampton Sides. The expedition arrived in Tahiti in August 1777, where the crew was eager for recreation. Cook's primary task was finding a home for Mai, who had returned from England with a hoard of treasures, including muskets and armor. Cook worried about Mai's status as a commoner and tried to arrange a marriage for him to protect his wealth, but Mai refused. Sides also highlights the importance of the "red feather" trade; Cook had discovered that these feathers were a royal currency in the islands, effectively allowing him to "change the economy" to secure supplies. Despite the idyllic setting, Cook's internal pressures and concerns for Mai's precarious future continued to mount. 41876 FIJI

Crewing the Expedition and Erroneous Science. Guest Author: Hampton Sides. The mission involved two ships: the Resolution and the Discovery. Key officers included Charles Clerke, who commanded the Discovery while suffering from tuberculosis, and James King, a talented astronomer whom Cook mentored. Also on board were John Gore, an American-born veteran, and William Bligh, a brilliant but "insufferable" navigator who learned his craft directly from Cook. The voyage was partly motivated by the "open sea" theory of Daines Barrington, which falsely suggested that seawater could not freeze and that a path to the Northwest Passage would be ice-free if sailors stayed away from land. This wrongheaded science fueled the British Empire's obsession with finding a shorter route to Asia. 21784
Preparation and the Lure of the Third Voyage. Guest Author: Hampton Sides. In 1776, a retired Captain James Cookwas living a comfortable life at Greenwich Hospital after two legendary voyages. However, a dinner with Lord Sandwich and the prospect of finding the Northwest Passage—and its £20,000 reward—convinced him to return to sea. Sides describes Cook's rise from poverty in Yorkshire, apprenticing under Quakers on "Whitby Cats," which were sturdy coal ships. This background instilled in him a sense of frugality and steadiness. Cook was a self-taught genius of hydrography, creating maps so accurate they rival modern satellite imagery. Despite his desire for retirement, his restlessness and the Admiralty's need for his unique mapmaking and leadership skills drove him to accept this final mission. 11781 DEATH OF COOK

Today's Scripture: Ephesians 1:3–12 **Today's devotional is in response to listener requests.** Why is it so hard to receive a love that's freely given—especially if you've learned that love has to be earned, approval is conditional, or goodness is for other people? In today's episode, Dr. Alison Cook reflects on Paul's astonishing words about blessing, belovedness, adoption, redemption, forgiveness, and grace. Before Paul gives the Ephesians instructions for how to live, he reminds them who they already are in Christ. We explore: *Why responsibility can feel safer than receiving*What a shame schema is and how it filters out goodness*Why love, grace, and belonging can feel threatening*The difference between entitlement and true belonging*How to live from belovedness instead of working for it Go Deeper: If you struggle to sense God's love, check out Dr. Alison's new book The Secure Soul - start reading today when you preorder.

Scripture is powerful. It has the power to comfort, guide, convict, and restore. But when it's taken out of context or used to control, it can also leave deep wounds. In this conversation, Dr. Alison sits down with theologian and Mending the Soul co-founder Dr. Steven Tracy to explore how Scripture can be used as medicine—or as poison—for those who have experienced abuse. Together, they unpack some of the most commonly misused passages around submission, forgiveness, honoring parents, and divorce, while offering a more faithful way of reading Scripture: one that reflects God's heart for the vulnerable, the oppressed, and the wounded. Here's what you'll cover * Why spiritually abusive people often weaponize Scripture* How to recognize the difference between biblical truth and spiritual manipulation* What God reveals about His heart for those experiencing abuse* Why humility matters when we interpret Scripture* How healthy boundaries honor both God and human dignity* How survivors can begin rebuilding trust in both God and His Word Whether you've experienced spiritual abuse yourself, love someone who has, or simply want to handle Scripture with greater wisdom and compassion, this conversation offers both clarity and hope. Because God's Word was never meant to keep you trapped in harm. It was always meant to lead you toward healing.

The market has evolved. The questions are just as relevant. A Retail Retold Replay looking back at retail in 2024.We're throwing it back to ICSC 2024 with James Cook, Americas Director of Retail Research at JLL and host of the Where We Buy podcast.From the DLC booth in Las Vegas, James and Chris Ressa shared a quick and impactful conversation on the trends shaping retail real estate, from the continued strength of open-air centers to the challenges created by historically low vacancy. While leasing activity has slowed, Cook explains why that's more a reflection of limited supply than weakening demand, and why he remains optimistic about the health of retailers and the consumer.The conversation also explores where artificial intelligence could have the biggest impact on the industry. As AI tools become more sophisticated, the opportunity isn't a lack of technology. It's finding ways to apply it to an industry built on private data, complex lease structures, and physical assets.They also touch on one of retail's more unexpected growth stories: celebrity-backed restaurants. Based on JLL's research, Cook shares why these concepts have surged in recent years and what that says about today's increasingly competitive restaurant landscape.Whether you're catching this conversation for the first time or giving it another listen, this throwback to ICSC 2024 is a fast, insightful look at the ideas that continue to shape retail real estate today.What You'll HearWhy James Cook remains optimistic about retail despite higher interest rates and economic uncertaintyHow historically low vacancy is changing the retail leasing landscapeWhy slower leasing activity doesn't necessarily signal weaker retailer demandWhere artificial intelligence has the greatest potential in retail real estateThe biggest challenge preventing AI from transforming the industry overnightWhy celebrity-backed restaurant concepts have exploded in recent yearsWhat JLL's research reveals about the connection between branding and restaurant expansionHow today's retail trends compare to the expectations coming out of 2024Chapters00:00 – Welcome to the replayJames Cook introduces his role leading retail research at JLL.00:21 – Why James is optimistic about retailConsumer demand and retailer expansion continue to support the market.01:12 – The headwinds facing leasingLower absorption, limited vacancy, and what the numbers really mean.01:43 – Would more available space lease quickly?Chris and James discuss how different types of vacancies would perform.02:19 – Can AI transform retail real estate?The promise of artificial intelligence meets the realities of the industry.03:36 – Why real estate is differentPhysical assets, fragmented data, and why AI adoption won't be straightforward.04:19 – The rise of celebrity-backed restaurantsJames shares surprising research on one of retail's fastest-growing concepts.05:51 – Retail, restaurants, and final thoughtsFavorite dining recommendations, industry research, and closing reflections.

Today's Scripture: Zechariah 8:4–5 What if one of the clearest signs of healing isn't just that danger ends—but that joy returns? In today's episode, Dr. Alison Cook reflects on Zechariah's beautiful vision of restoration: elderly men and women sitting safely in the streets, and children playing again. It's a picture of hope after devastation, safety after fear, and joy returning to the most vulnerable places. We explore:*Why play is a sign of safety and healing*How survival mode can crowd out joy, creativity, and delight*What Zechariah's vision teaches us about shalom and restoration*Why God's vision of healing includes the vulnerable, the elderly, and the young*How to help the younger parts of you remember what safety feels like Go Deeper: Episode 172: Daring Joy: Breaking Free from Fear, Cynicism, and Toxic Positivity with Therapist Nicole Zasowski Episode 198: Tiny Joys, Big Healing: Retraining the Brain for Hope with Dr MaryCatherine McDonald Connect with Dr. Alison on Instagram: @dralisoncook Join 80,000+ Soul Menders in Dr. Alison's free email community for ongoing reflection and support.

“Is Baptism Necessary for Salvation?” This question opens a discussion on the essential role of baptism in the Catholic faith, addressing concerns such as whether a Catholic father can baptize his children without the mother’s consent and what God is doing during the baptismal rite. Other topics include the Church’s acceptance of baptisms from some Protestant denominations and the differences between sprinkling and immersion. Join the Catholic Answers Live Club Newsletter Invite our apologists to speak at your parish! Visit Catholicanswersspeakers.com Questions Covered: 02:29 – Is Baptism Necessary for Salvation? 06:40 – Can a father who is Catholic get his children baptized without the consent of the mother? 08:05 – Since baptism is not just a symbol, what exactly is God doing at baptism? 15:20 – Why does the Church accept baptisms in some protestant churches 18:10 – What is the Catholic view on sprinkling vs immersion, and also on the formula (in Jesus' name vs the trinitarian formula)? 41:30 – I grew up Catholic and have been Catholic my whole life, but I don't have any proof that I am baptized.

Today's Scripture: Mark 5:1–20 Have you ever started answering to a name your pain gave you? In today's episode, Dr. Alison Cook reflects on the story of the man living among the tombs in Mark 5—a man whose torment had become his name. When Jesus asks, “What is your name?” he does not ask in order to shame him, but to surface what has claimed him and begin the work of setting him free. We explore: *How pain can become part of your identity *The difference between carrying a wound and becoming defined by it Why shame collapses the self and makes change feel impossible *How Jesus separates who you are from what has tormented you *What it means to receive a truer name from God Go Deeper: Episode 197: A deep dive with Dr. Joel Muddamalle on spiritual warfare and personal responsibility Episode 158: Your Pain Has a Name: The Deeper Hurt Behind Distressing Thoughts with Monica DiCristina Connect with Dr. Alison on Instagram: @dralisoncook Join 80,000+ Soul Menders in Dr. Alison's free email community for ongoing reflection and support.

Registered dietitian Angie Asche breaks it all down simply and practically. In this episode, Steph and sports dietitian Angie Asche, cover youth athlete nutrition from the ground up. You will learn what recreational and competitive kids actually need to perform and recover, how to time meals around practices and tournament days, what to do when your child is hungry 20 minutes before bed after a late game and why most popular sports products marketed to kids are not what they are cracked up to be.

Watch this episode on our Youtube channel @medschoolformoms Listen to today's episode on our website I realized early on that my dream career was to become a sports dietitian. Growing up a competitive dancer and swimmer, I was always intrigued by the impact eating certain foods before a competition or meet had on my performance. I had a love for science and how nutrition could have either the most beneficial or detrimental impact on both athletic performance and overall health. My professional experience began after receiving Bachelor of Science degrees in both Dietetics and Exercise Science at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln. I went on to complete my dietetic internship at Saint Louis University to earn my title as a Registered Dietitian and a Master of Science Degree in Nutrition & Physical Performance. Since founding Eleat Sports Nutrition® in June 2014, I have worked with hundreds of high school, college, and professional athletes nationwide in MLB, NFL, and NHL. I published Fuel Your Body: How to Cook and Eat for Peak Performance in 2021, and work as a media spokesperson for several brands across the health and wellness industry. Whether assisting an adult with weight management or educating an athlete on what to eat to improve their performance, I have a passion for helping others achieve their goals and teaching them how to make healthy eating a part of their daily lifestyle.

Today's Scripture: Psalm 86:1–7 What do you do when you feel so tired, stretched thin, or aware of your need that even prayer feels vulnerable? In today's episode, Dr. Alison Cook reflects on the tender image of a God who bends low to hear us. This passage gives us permission to bring our need honestly into God's presence—not as a shame statement, but as a truth statement. We explore: *Why need can feel so vulnerable *How attachment wounds shape the way we approach God *Why we often pray around our need instead of from our need *The difference between humility and shame *How God meets us in the poor and needy places of the soul Go Deeper: If you struggle to sense God's nearness, check out Dr. Alison's new book, The Secure Soul.
