Jacqueline Friedland discusses COUNTING BACKWARDS, an emotionally riveting dual narrative story exploring issues of incarceration, eugenics, infertility and legacy.

 It's 1927 and young, destitute woman in Virginia named Carrie Buck stands at the center of an extraordinary legal battle at the forefront of the American eugenics conversation. (an aside/fact: by the 1920s, eugenics had become a global movement). Uneducated and without any support, she spends her youth dreaming about a different future--one separate from her exploitative foster family--unknowing of the ripples her small, country life will have on an entire nation. Flash forward to 2022. Jessa must make a decision: risk her legal career and relationships by leading the charge on an ambitious class action lawsuit or remain silent. She wants to have it all-- the job title of her dreams, a loving marriage with her husband, Vance, and, above all else, a baby. But when her painstaking efforts to conceive fall flat, she struggles to find larger meaning in her life. The decision she makes next threatens to change everything. Faced with the opportunity to take on a pro bono case at a nearby ICE detention center, Jessa decides to pick up the thread of her family's long history of activism by representing detainee Isobel Pérez, hoping to help her secure citizenship and ultimately reunite her with her young daughter. However, what first appears to be a routine immigration case quickly reveals itself as something far more sinister.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/arroe-collins-unplugged-totally-uncut--994165/support.

Ken Landau talks with Attorney-turned-Author Jacqueline Friedland, who discusses her latest book "Counting Backwards," a legal thriller.  She is the author of numerous other books, and will be discussing her latest book at Blue Door Books in Cedarhurst on May 7, 2025.

COUNTING BACKWARDS is a legal thriller by Jacqueline Friedland following the timelines of two women—one in 1927 and the other in the present day—inspired by the true stories of medical abuse, and women's struggles for their civil and reproductive rights. Jacqueline Friedland is the author of four other titles, including HE GETS THAT FROM ME and TROUBLE THE WATER. She graduated Magna cum Laude from both the University of Pennsylvania and NYU Law School before going on to briefly pursue commercial litigation.

 It's 1927 and young, destitute woman in Virginia named Carrie Buck stands at the center of an extraordinary legal battle at the forefront of the American eugenics conversation. (an aside/fact: by the 1920s, eugenics had become a global movement).

The aftermath of the US election has left many of us in a state of shock. Voters were faced with a stark choice between more growth-based neoliberalism or alt right extremism, choosing the latter. It was a great day for billionaires either way. As Australia looks to face a very similar choice in mid-2025, it is clear that activists must take stock, recalibrate and work together effectively to advocate for a third alternative that celebrates people and planet. PGAP co-hosts Mark Allen and Michael Bayliss discuss their responses to the election and their recent engagements toward a Degrowth future. In this episode, Michael shares the speech that he gave on Degrowth at the Torbay Festival, Western Australia in late October – just before the election. A quote from the talk: “What can we do as Davids against the Goliaths of psychopathic multinational corporations and the politicians who serve time as their apologists for a few years in the promise of a cushy job in the gas industry? This is where I invite you to think about where from here and let's have the conversation.” This is a conversation that needs to happen with greater urgency as humanity lurches towards an increasingly dark future. A transcript of Michael's talk can be read on the PGAP BLOG (https://pgap.fireside.fm/articles/torbaydegrowthnotes). Mark shares his most recent posting on Holistic Activism following the US election. As Mark explains, “this message isn't a call for optimism or hope…instead, it's a call to hold space and to serve both human and non-human futures, with an awareness of our profound interconnectedness.” The post may be read at the Holistic Activism website HERE (https://holisticactivism.net/upcoming-events/). You can be part of the Holistic Activism movement today by joining the HA FACEBOOK GROUP. (https://www.facebook.com/groups/211194752603900) PGAP is also proud to be the first to play Mark's new song ‘Ballad of Yakamia' performed by his occasional and ongoing musical project ‘Counting Backwards.' You can download or purchase the song from BANDCAMP (https://countingbackwards.bandcamp.com/track/ballad-of-yakamia). One take away from the US election is that podcasts have now overtaken mainstream media as public informers. However, did you know that the top 10 performing podcasts tend to lean more towards right wing populism? It is time that podcasts that offer genuine solutions – planned degrowth, steady state economics, wellbeing societies, and stabilising populations start to make a bigger splash in the mainstream media.

From George Monbiot: Trump has pledged to wage war on planet Earth – and it will take a progressive revolution to stop him (https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2024/nov/07/trump-voters-revolution-politics-right). "Voters have never been swayed by ‘rational debate'. Only a genuine change in the way we do politics can prevent the march of the right". Indeed.

Let's exploring countdown framing—a powerful strategy where you start with a total goal and count down, not up. This approach, sparked by a post I saw about the remaining days of 2024, can bring new motivation to your running. Counting down the days left in the year made me feel that extra push, so today we're applying that same idea to training and races. Let's make the final stretch of any goal as rewarding as the finish line!Key TopicsCountdown Framing ExplainedHow this technique gives you a clear sense of progress, making it feel like you're always moving closer to the finish line.Why Countdown Framing WorksIncreased Perceived Progress: Seeing goals shrink as you go makes every step feel meaningful.Goal Gradient Effect: Get an energy boost by counting down to zero, creating a powerful finish.Reduced Overwhelm: Start with a bigger number and let each mile or minute feel like progress toward a smaller goal.Enhanced Satisfaction: Each step counted down adds a feeling of completion and reward to your runs.How to Implement Countdown Framing in RunningFor Training: Set your timer or distance countdown, and enjoy the sense of completion at each mile.For Races: Mentally count down each mile or minute to stay motivated, especially in the toughest sections.Garden Cup Link to save 20%

The new intro theme was provided by Perth based composer and film scorer Nicholas Gardiner (https://www.nicholasgardiner.com/). Please contact PGAP anytime (https://pgap.fireside.fm/contact) to share your thoughts. Rate and review PGAP on Apple Podcast (https://podcasts.apple.com/au/podcast/post-growth-australia-podcast/id1522194099) – that would be the perfect Christmas gift (hint! Hint!) I also have a brand new Website now! Check it out here (https://michaelbayliss.org/). ‘Michalbayliss.org' is a depository of all my creativity, public outreach and multimedia projects over the years. I can also be contacted through the website for any collaborative opportunities that you may have in mind. I am available for interview, article writing, sound/video editing, project management, all at very competitive degrowth rates. PGAP is not the only podcast where I have been busy. I have recently been a guest on both the ‘Overpopulation Podcast' (https://population.org.au/spa-interviewed-on-overpopulation-podcast/) and ‘The Steady Stater' (https://www.buzzsprout.com/1244474/9663103) where I have been honoured to have some of my most enjoyable conversations in my life with some of the best hosts and all round human beings one could hope for. Stick around and have a gander! I mentioned Town Planning Rebellion (https://holisticactivism.net/town-planning-rebellion-tpr/) on this episode and have interviewed TPR's founder, Mark Allen, on two occasions during PGAP's history. Mark has been particularly influential on my activism, outlook and attitudes, and I strongly recommending checking out ‘Holistic Activism' (https://holisticactivism.net/). Mark also founded the music project ‘Counting Backwards' who provided the exclusively demo track ‘Miserable Sodding Christmas' for this episode. You can discover Counting Backwards music here (https://countingbackwards.bandcamp.com/). Speaking of influences. I would like to acknowledge the work of Michelle Maloney, Anitra Nelson, Ian Lowe, Katherine Trebeck and Anne Poelina for having an impact on my views, outlooks, and philosophical positions that I have shared on this episode. I've been lucky enough to have them all as guests on PGAP! I'm sure we don't share eye to eye on every single issue and I'm quite proud of holding my own opinions. Nevertheless, it is good to wear your influences on your sleeve! And finally, my band Shock Octopus, shared two songs on this episode: ‘A Deer Caught In The Headlights' (https://shockoctopus.bandcamp.com/track/a-deer-caught-in-the-headlights-4) and ‘So Far From Home (https://shockoctopus.bandcamp.com/track/so-far-from-home)'. The entire catalogue can be seen on Bandcamp (https://shockoctopus.bandcamp.com/)or on my website. (https://michaelbayliss.org/music) Stick around for the new year when PGAP launches season 3 in style with a star studded cast of special guests. Until then, have a great festive season.

This special and unorthodox episode of PGAP was recorded on-site the Christie Walk ecological co-housing development in central Adelaide to speak to not one, but TWO very special guests. Sue Gilbey is a resident of Christie Walk, host of the Adelaide Chronicles podcast series, an environmental activist, and an advocate for social justice causes. She is the only Australian (so far) to receive the internationally acclaimed Bremen Peace Award. Mark Allen is the founder of Town Planning Rebellion and Holistic Activism. He is a former town planner and former co-host of the City Limits program on Melbourne's 3CR radio station. In this episode, Sue takes us on a virtual tour of Christie Walk as an example of sustainable inner city community development. Mark provides insight and clarity as to why places like Christie Walk are the exception and not the rule -and why we need to fight back at Australia's broken property and housing sector (and those who profit most from this status quo). This is an interview in two parts. In part one of the interview, I caught up with Sue at Christie Walk (https://www.urbanecology.org.au/eco-cities/christie-walk/) to share her amazing life story, which includes a travelogue of rural Australia, Bangladesh and Cambodia. She shares her work campaigning for a sustainable and inclusive future for all people. Sue herself lives with an acquired disability, but this has not held her back from her tireless activism which includes hosting the incredible Adelaide Chronicles (https://adelaidechronicles.com/) podcast. In Part 2, I met up again with Sue at Christie Walk and was delighted to be joined by Mark Allen from Town Planning Rebellion (https://holisticactivism.net/town-planning-rebellion-tpr/)and Holistic Activism (https://holisticactivism.net/). Using Christie Walk as a central focus, the conversation then broadens into a discussion at to why alternative housing models are a critical part of the transition toward a post-growth world. Further, how the developer and investor infiltrated housing sector makes this crucial change so difficult. Mark Allen is a return guest to PGAP, having been a special guest in last year's Retrosuburbia episode with David Holmgre (https://pgap.fireside.fm/holmgren)n. Mark also provides the music for this episode, via the track ‘Lost and Found Hours' from his music project ‘Counting Backwards (https://countingbackwards.bandcamp.com/).' This was the first time PGAP has attempted a three way interview on location and we were very fortunate to take advantage of Sue's amazing portable 360 degree recording device. Sue and I ebb in an out of swapping ‘interviewer' and ‘interviewee' roles but I think we just about pull it off in a post-modern way. It is not every day you get to describe the aims of your podcast on your own show but we live in fascinating times. This episode was recorded with gratitude on unceded Kaurna land and PGAP pays respect to elders past, present and emerging. Special Guests: Mark Allen and Sue Gilbey.

In this under 10 minute episode I whisper numbers counting backwards from 100 and rub the microphone in between.

What is the steady state economy? Why is it better than the growth economy we already have? For the first episode of Post-Growth Australia Podcast, host Michael Bayliss is joined by Jonathan Miller (Steady Sstate ACT, a chapter of the Center for the Advancement of the Steady State Economy [CASSE]) and Martin Tye (Australian Regional Communities Chapter, CASSE) who explain why the steady state economy is every bit as interesting and dynamic as what we have now, just MUCH better for the future of the planet. Michael also plays the audio excerpt from the popular short animation ‘The Endless Growth Paradigm’ and a hot new single from a hot new environmental music project – ‘The End Of History’ as performed by ‘Counting Backwards’ To find out more about Steady State ACT, visit its website here (https://steadystateact.org/) To find out more about The Centre for the Advancement of the Steady State Economy (CASSE), visit here (https://steadystate.org/). You can also sign the petition that Martin discusses in his interview here (https://steadystate.org/act/sign-the-position/) . In this episode, we played the audio excerpt from the short animation ‘The Endless Growth Paradigm (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s9445ShUJqM&t=4s).‘ By clicking on the hyperlink you can see the video in full, even if you don’t agree with all of the message I think we can all agree that this is some stunning art work. We played ‘The End Of History (https://countingbackwards.bandcamp.com/)’ which was the first ever single release performed by ‘Counting Backwards.’ The group is a Melbourne based project who focus on environmental and existential themes. The song was released to raise funds for Extinction Rebellion. It would be lovely if you could visit and support this project further on their Bandcamp page – we will need local music in the new post-growth society so in the meantime our local musicians need all the support they can get! Special Guests: Jonathan Miller and Martin Tye.

This week, obviously the most important thing the guys can talk about are the nationwide protests, and how they think we may be able to move forward. Since you obviously don't come here for political opinions and news recaps, the guys also talk about a few silly things too, like the Tiger King news, Google tricks, counting backwards, and perfect weather.All that and more, this week on Just Press Play.Show notes and more can be found on our website.Music provided by TRUTH.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Will Westercauw and Kathy Foster (The Thermals, Roseblood, Slang) discuss four songs that peaked on the Modern Rock charts in April 1991. Songs under discussion include "Valerie Loves Me" by Material Issue, "Counting Backwards" by Throwing Muses, "De-Luxe" by Lush, and "The Wagon" by Dinosaur Jr..

Noel catches up with Kristin Hersh of Throwing Muses and 50-foot Wave. Throwing Muses is releasing their latest album, Sun Racket, in May. The first single, Dark Blue, is out now. They are best known for their songs "Counting Backwards" and "Bright Yellow Gun" to name a couple. Kristin is also an accomplished solo artist. Her song, "Your Ghost", features REM's Michael Stipe.

The People's Theology is a show exploring theology and culture. In each episode, we explore a question, theme, or topic in dialogue with our faith. Today that question is, “how do we count?” Maybe that sounds weird, but we all have a way of “counting” especially when it comes to success. We believe, as Chris Hughes noted, that the hustle is holy and that hard work should lead to more and higher. That's the underwriting narrative of the American story; Zuckerberg and Facebook, Apple and even Enron. And like with those examples, sometimes we love it the result and sometimes we hate it but for some reason, we rarely ask was the “direction right?” Is the Hustle virtuous? Is 10 always greater than 1?  Why do we count that way? And more importantly, is it good?

What about the cognitive functions? What about memory, and attention, and creativity, and such nifty abilities of the mind? Do they not get hampered in altered states?

Chicago indie band the Inventors joins me for encased meats from the underrated Hot Dog Station (4742 N Kimball Ave, Chicago, IL 60625). Before they played a phenomenal version of their new song ("Apartment"), we chatted about: The Inventors' show on 11/30 at the Underground Lounge (GO SEE THEM!) The Inventors history, dating back to high school: "We found the couple (of friends) we liked, and stuck together." Less than a year after their last album, they're ready to go with a new one. THEY NEVER STOP INVENTING. The fantastic Inventors song "10s & 9s," from where the band's first album title ("Counting Backwards") came from. Band motto: "Keep it simple, stupid." "Beautiful": The new song and video  The new album is self-titled for a reason. The Inventors' homecoming, playing a show in their hometown. The new song "Apartment" sounded A-MAZE-ING when they played it live in my car. Car Con Carne is presented by The Autobarn Mazda of Evanston

Legacy 2018 - Pastor Eugene Reiszner

For many of the 40 million Americans who undergo anesthesia each year, it is the source of great fear and fascination. From the famous first demonstration of anesthesia in the Ether Dome at Massachusetts General Hospital in 1846 to today’s routine procedures that controls anxiety, memory formation, pain relief, and more, anesthesia has come a long way. But it remains one of the most extraordinary, unexplored corners of the medical world. In Counting Backwards: A Doctor’s Notes on Anesthesia (W. W. Norton and Company, 2017), Dr. Henry Jay Przybylo—a pediatric anesthesiologist with more than thirty years of experience—delivers an unforgettable account of the procedures, daily dramas, and fundamental mysteries. Przybylo has administered anesthesia more than 30,000 times in his career—erasing consciousness, denying memory, and immobilizing the body, and then reversing all of these effects—on newborn babies, screaming toddlers, sullen teenagers, even a gorilla. With compassion and candor, he weaves his experiences into an intimate exploration of the nature of consciousness, the politics of pain relief, and the wonder of modern medicine. Jeremy Corr is the co-host of the hit Fixing Healthcare podcast along with industry thought leader Dr. Robert Pearl. A University of Iowa history alumnus, Jeremy is curious and passionate about all things healthcare, which means he’s always up for a good discussion!
