This week, Alan, Quinta, and Scott were joined by Lawfare Executive Editor Natalie Orpett to go over the week's big national security news, including:“Does NSM Stand for No Such Memo?” Last week, in a long-awaited report required by National Security Memorandum 20 that President Biden issued earlier this year, the Biden administration concluded that there were credible reasons to believe that Israel may well have violated international law and obstructed U.S.-backed humanitarian flows in its conduct of the war in Gaza. But it still declined to find Israeli assurances to the contrary lacking in credibility enough to interrupt U.S. security assistance. What does this tell us about the state of U.S. support for Israel—especially as Israeli forces appear increasingly set to pursue an offensive on Rafah that Biden has openly opposed?“What to Expect When You're Not Expecting.” A sharp global decline in birth rates—often below replacement levels, especially (but not exclusively) in highly developed countries—has some academics and policymakers panicking about everything from the global balance of power to the future of social support systems. But are these concerns misplaced? And how (if at all) should we be thinking about the relationship between national security and family planning?“AzerbaiSCAM.” The Justice Department has indicted a second Democratic legislator—Rep. Henry Cuellar of Texas—for working as an unregistered agent of a foreign government, this time that of Azerbaijan, even as a federal court in New York seats a jury for the prosecution of Sen. Bob Menendez for allegedly doing the same on behalf of Egypt and Qatar. Is this reflective of a broader problematic trend? And what should policymakers be doing about it?For object lessons, Alan lamented the passing of great Canadian Alice Munro. Quinta celebrated the semi-resolution of a long-running mystery involving Prague. Scott renewed his call for people to grill more pizza this summer and shared some tips before handing the mic to producer Noam, who shared that he's performing at the DC Improv on May 23. And Natalie reminisced fondly (?) on her time living in New York. To receive ad-free podcasts, become a Lawfare Material Supporter at www.patreon.com/lawfare.

David Hunter Jr. and Daniel Hunter David Hunter Jr., Host of POST IN BLACK, and his brother Daniel Hunter, Founder of POST IN BLACK, joined forces with Executive Producer Tatiana Johnson to create a podcast that has quickly caught fire amongst the film and tv post community.  In featuring African American creative professionals working in the world of media and entertainment, their mission is to reach out to a new generation who may not be aware that a variety of career opportunities exist for them not just in front of the camera, but behind the lens as well.  In this special edition of The Rough Cut, David and Daniel not only give us the scoop on "the guys behind the podcast", but also some new perspectives on the lack of diversity in the industry today. DAVID HUNTER JR. David Hunter Jr. is an actor, writer and producer born in Washington DC and raised in the surrounding Metro Area.

In 2018, David auditioned for and was accepted into the inaugural class of the Los Angeles branch of the award-winning Identity School of Acting. While there, he was nominated for Best Actor in his group's showcase. The ability to create has allowed David to make a lane for himself that lets others see him as more than just an actor. This lead to David starting his own production company, Made For More Entertainment. Underneath the Umbrella of Made For More, David hosts a popular Podcast / Web Series called "Post In Black". This podcast highlights the work of African Americans working behind the scenes in Post Production with guests including the likes of Terilyn Shropshire (Jumping The Broom, When They See Us, The Old Guard) and Daysha Broadway (The Forty Year-Old Version, Insecure, A Black Lady Sketch Show) David has a genuine love for kids and performed Children's Theatre in the LA area for LAUSD for over 8 years with the theatre company, Enrichment Works.

Life-ending innovations, resurrection addicts, funerary gatherings, and a debate over mortality. All things must pass, and in the season finale, Midnight Public Radio examines exactly how many thousands of ways there are to shift off this tiresome mortal coil and take a nice long dirt nap.
