Alex Stumpf came into this homestand ready to declare the 2026 Pittsburgh Pirates dead. Instead, they took two of three from both the Red Sox and Tigers and kept the tiniest bit of hope alive. Now comes the real test. The Pirates head out for a nine-game road trip against the Dodgers, Padres and Cardinals with essentially no margin for error. Alex looks at what it would take to get back into the Wild Card race, the concerns surrounding Paul Skenes, the return of Oneil Cruz and why this really could be Pittsburgh's last stand.

Ken Carman and Anthony Lima break down the Guardians' 8-1 win over the Giants, with deadline pickup Jo Adell crushing a 455-foot three-run homer despite fouling a ball off his knee, and Foster Griffin turning in another strong start after a rocky Cleveland debut. They flag Chase DeLauter's absence as the real concern, arguing the Guardians can't realistically make the playoffs without him in the lineup, before shifting into Browns joint practice fights with the Bills and a wild Julio Rodriguez blunder that helped the Brewers blow out the Mariners.

“Obituaries are about life, about the lives that people have lived. Death only figures in one sentence.” — Sam Roberts This is, remarkably, episode 3,000 of Keen On America — three thousand conversations since the show launched on TechCrunch in 2010. Fitting, then, that today's guest has written nearly 1,500 obituaries for the New York Times. Sam Roberts is a reporter on the Times' obituaries desk and has a new book about the art of the obit entitled Are They Dead Yet? We recorded this a week before airtime, so I began by asking who's going to die in the interim. He wasn't sure — but noted that the Times keeps 2,000 advance obituaries ready. There are, he added, never enough. Beware, though, the Rockefeller curse. Roberts wrote David Rockefeller's advance obituary, whereupon he learned that three other Times reporters had written Rockefeller advance obits — and all three were dead. (Rockefeller made it to 101.) Borrowing from Citizen Kane, Roberts hunts for the Rosebud moment, the epiphany that defines a life. He hunts for the soul of the subject, not the résumé. Hence his cheerful paradox that obituaries are about life, whereas death only figures in one sentence. As for famous last words, he's a skeptic — most were composed later by better writers. The real ones, he suspects, are “help,” or “get me a drink.” And the obituarist's own Rosebud moment? We have to go back to Brooklyn when he was a six-year-old boy. His father walked him to the corner to watch the Rosenberg funeral procession pass. “I want you to see history as it's happening,” he explained. Half a century later, Roberts got David Greenglass to admit he had lied about the testimony that sent his own sister, Ethel Rosenberg, to the electric chair. From the Times' Portraits of Grief after 9/11, Roberts learned the book's deepest lesson. There are no ordinary lives. Who would you miss more — your mayor or your mailman? Or maybe your obit writer (or even your podcaster)? Sam promised that if he died before airtime, he'd call. The phone hasn't rung. I'm still going too. On to episode 3,001. Five Takeaways •       2,000 Obits, Never Enough. The Times keeps some 2,000 advance obituaries on file, regularly updated — and people still surprise the desk (and presumably themselves) by dying unexpectedly. Print once had a deadline or two a day; now there's a deadline every minute. The occupational hazards are real: three Times reporters wrote advance obits of David Rockefeller and predeceased him — Roberts, the fourth, survived to see his run when Rockefeller died at 101. And the genre changes its readers: “no man who has seen his own obit is ever the same again.” Alfred Nobel, mistakenly obituarized as dynamite's merchant of death, endowed the Nobel Prizes in response — proof that a premature obituary can be the most consequential document a man ever reads.•       The Rosebud Method. Roberts' organizing device comes from Citizen Kane: the Rosebud moment, the epiphany — a teacher, a meeting, an accident — that changed the trajectory of a life and made it worth recording. The model, via The Economist's Ann Wroe, is the soul rather than the stenography: Wikipedia has the chronology; the obituary hunts the essence. Advance obits are never vetted by their subjects — facts checked, yes; the portrait, never — because an obituary is a news story, not a eulogy. And the form's great secret is optimism: obituaries are about life. Death gets one sentence. (Famous last words, meanwhile, are mostly posthumous fiction. The real ones: “help,” or “get me a drink.”)•       Giuliani, Trump, Epstein. The hardest working file on Roberts' desk: Rudy Giuliani — aggressive prosecutor, the mayor who proved New York governable, then a bitter Trump apologist indicted under the same statutes he once used on mobsters. How do you compress that into a lead paragraph? Andrew's suggestion — a narrative of somebody who had a soul and then sold it — requires Shakespeare; Roberts insists on newspaper objectivity, omitting nothing and editorializing never. The Trump obituary already exists (its subject, Roberts guesses, would sue). And context keeps moving after death: Bush the defeated loser became Bush the elder statesman; Epstein's reputation kept falling posthumously. Of the 150,000 people who die each day, three or four make the Times.•       The Rosenberg Rosebud. Roberts' own epiphany arrived at age six, on a Brooklyn street corner where his father took him to watch the Rosenberg funeral procession: “I want you to see history as it's happening.” His family otherwise met death with denial — six months after his father died, an aunt asked how Arthur was doing could only answer “so-so.” The Rosenberg thread ran through his whole career: decades later, for his book The Brother, David Greenglass admitted to Roberts that he had lied about the most incriminating testimony against his sister Ethel — evidence that, truthfully given, would likely have spared her the electric chair. When Roberts assigned graduate students to write his own advance obituary, none of them led with that. He would.•       No Ordinary Lives. From Portraits of Grief — the Times' profiles of virtually every victim of the World Trade Center attack — Roberts drew the book's central lesson: there are no ordinary lives. Who would you miss more, your mayor or your mailman? Carlyle asked whether history belongs to Hannibal or to the anonymous man who invented the spade. The desk has honored the principle in both directions: a front-page obituary for Hercule Poirot (the most famous Belgian, as Andrew noted), and a Jesus of Nazareth obituary written as the Times would have run it in AD 33 — ending, for lack of further confirmation, with the report that he was buried and his body disappeared. No beat generates more reader feedback. “As long as they're reading it, I'm happy.” About the Guest Sam Roberts is a fifty-year veteran of New York journalism, an obituaries reporter and former Urban Affairs correspondent at the New York Times, and the host of the Times' “Close Up,” which he inaugurated in 1992. His many books include The Brother, Grand Central, A History of New York in 101 Objects, and Only in New York. A history adviser to Federal Hall, he lives in New York with his wife and two sons. Are They Dead Yet? The Art of the Obit (Bloomsbury, August 11, 2026) draws on the nearly 1,500 obituaries he has written for the Times. References: •       Are They Dead Yet? The Art of the Obit by Sam Roberts (Bloomsbury, August 11, 2026).

Religion and death, for many of us, go hand in hand.It is our faith that often shapes what we believe happens when we die and, perhaps just as importantly, what we ought to do while we still live.In fact, if a belief system does not ask us to consider our death and what it means for us—if it avoids the subject and keeps mortality at arm's length, it is almost certainly not a religion at all.The Bible is many things, and among them, it is a ledger of death and dying. And, while the Bible has far less to say about the afterlife than our cultural imagination likes to impose upon it, the reality of death rings loudly through every book in the collection.Death is the curse brought on in Genesis. It fills the following books through wars, plagues, and punishments. It operates as the enemy defeated by Jesus through resurrection. And it awaits many of his followers as they seek to spread his teachings.Today, Christians continue to grapple with their mortality—with where exactly they are going and how exactly they might get there. And, while all of us know life will end, for those Christians who know that the end is imminent, faith can take on a whole new meaning.To understand what it's like to be a Christian while approaching death, Culture Critic Joseph Holmes spoke with actor and writer Victoria Jackson. Jackson was an SNL cast member back in the 80's and has had a long career in film and television—including work in many faith-based films. Jackson suffers from terminal breast cancer, and, with the knowledge that her life is going to end, she recently wrote “Not Dead Yet,” which tells the story of her life, her faith, and how she is dealing with dying.As with all of our podcasts, Religion Unplugged believes in a diversity of opinions.

When the first teaser for “Passenger” was released, we were immediately impressed by its standalone scene featuring two guys, a pitstop, and the terrifying apparition they encounter on the road. But did the full-length film live up to this trailer? Tune in to hear our thoughts on the scenes that delivered some truly unique scares, the plot points that fell short, and of course that cameo by Oscar winner, Melissa Leo.

This Q&A episode has everything. Habits, dispositional conservatism, family bookshelves, Bo Jackson, Viking longboats, Apollo space ships, theology, and more. In an effort to avoid premature elaboration, the gang does a lightning round of false binaries.

Ben and Chris talk with tech analyst Ben Thompson about the future. Is AI heaven, or hell, or both? Does the future belong to China or the United States? What's the deal with Silicon Valley, and does American ingenuity require a little insanity?

Singer, songwriter, musician, actor, and record producer Clint Black joins underachievers Ben and Chris. The gang talks about country music, writing, parenting, career choices, and gratitude.

Send us Fan Mail What happens when the version of yourself the world handed you was the version you were taught to fear? This episode is for anyone who has ever quietly wondered if they were allowed to be loved as they are. Sayan sits down with Dr. Joshua Caraballo, industrial-organizational psychologist and author of I'm Not Dead...Yet. Joshua walks through the conviction he made inside a prison cell, the years of believing God wanted to destroy him for being gay, surviving Hodgkin's lymphoma twice, and the slow, deliberate work of falling back in love with himself. They unpack the PERMA model from positive psychology, why questioning what you've been taught is a fruitful exercise even when you keep believing it, and what self-acceptance actually looks like in practice. Honest, unhurried, and quietly hopeful. About the Guest: Dr. Joshua J. Caraballo, PsyD, is an industrial-organizational psychologist, author, performer, and the founder of Dr. Josh Business Solutions. Based in Denver, Colorado, his career centers on inspirational storytelling and applied science for human betterment, particularly for historically marginalized communities. He is the author of the memoir I'm Not Dead...Yet: How I Turned My Misfortunes Into Strengths, which traces his journey through a strict Jehovah's Witness upbringing, mental health struggles, addiction, prison, surviving Hodgkin's lymphoma, and coming home to himself as a gay Puerto Rican man. Key Takeaways: Survival can become a habit. At some point you have to ask whether the life you've been getting through is the life you actually want. Questioning what you were taught is not betrayal, it's a fruitful exercise. Sometimes it brings you back to the same belief. Sometimes it sets you free. Either way, the asking matters. Values aren't preferences. A real value can never harm yourself, others, or the world. If a "value" requires harm to hold, it isn't one. Identity is not always a choice. Some parts of who you are are as fixed as ethnicity. The work isn't changing them, it's recognizing them. The PERMA model: Positive emotion, Engagement, Relationships, Meaning, Achievement and vitality. All five together build a life worth flourishing in. Real change is incremental, not sweeping. Self-love is built in small, repeated acts, not in a single breakthrough moment.

He also provides critical updates on Iran's internal power struggle, reporting that the Ayatollah is severely incapacitated while factions within the IRGC push for either war or survival under mounting economic pressure from the U.S. blockade. Bryan explains how this pressure is choking off billions in oil revenue, while China's massive oil reserves give Beijing temporary insulation and a potential strategic edge in the region. Plus, Bryan covers escalating tensions between the White House and Pope Leo over immigration policy, a troubling rise in threats against ICE agents, and new concerns about artificial intelligence being used inside the CIA despite reliability issues. He closes with health updates on marijuana policy changes, unexpected risks tied to weight-loss drugs, and an inspiring story from a listener who credits the podcast with helping save her life.   "And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." - John 8:32     Keywords: Israel Lebanon ceasefire extension 2026 Middle East peace talks, Iran Ayatollah health IRGC power struggle economic blockade impact, US Navy blockade Iran oil revenue China reserves strategy, Trump Pope Leo immigration conflict Vatican criticism, ICE threats California politics violence rhetoric immigration debate, CIA artificial intelligence intel reports reliability concerns, marijuana rescheduling FDA cannabis policy Trump administration, GLP-1 drugs cannabis interaction scromiting risks, cancer survival story exercise immune system benefits, Bryan Dean Wright podcast, The Wright Report

Astronomy Cast Ep. 787: Evolved Stars (They're not dead yet!) By Fraser Cain & Dr. Pamela Gay Streamed live on Mar 16, 2026. Main sequence stars spend most of their time being… normal. Fusing hydrogen into helium in their cores. Producing radiation. But as their stockpiles of hydrogen run out they switch to other fuels, starting to climb the ladder of the periodic table of elements. And this is when things get weird. As we get more and more observations of the cosmos, our understanding gets more detailed. In this episode we look at all the ways a star can die and the updates that we've learned in the past 20 years of Astronomy Cast.
