President Trump suggests that the high price of oil—surging upward because of his war in Iran—is a good thing, because the United States makes "a lot of money." Jon and Dan discuss the President's unique affordability message, his claim that the war has already been won, and what Joe Rogan, Marjorie Taylor Greene, and Gen Z men are saying about Iran. Then, they check in on the GOP, including the party's mass deportation messaging "hiccup," the lengths some on the right are going to in order to pass the SAVE Act, and MAGA's full embrace of Islamophobia. Finally, they react to former DOGE staffers trying to explain DEI under oath, and to Marco Rubio allegedly lying about his shoe size to the President of the United States.
Hi. On today's episode, Katy, Cody, and Jonathan discuss Donald Trump's refusal to acknowledge that the U.S. military slaughtered children at school, how nobody knows what's going on in the Strait of Hormuz, Republican members of Congress being proudly Islamophobic scum, and the DOGE boys being unable to define DEI.As always, we recorded right before that big thing that happened.PATREON: https://patreon.com/somemorenewsMERCH: https://shop.somemorenews.comYOUTUBE MEMBERSHIP: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCvlj0IzjSnNoduQF0l3VGng/join#EvenMoreNews #StraightOfHormuz #DOGESee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
On this episode of Straight White American Jesus, Brad Onishi and Dan Miller dive headfirst into the Trump administration's approach to Iran—and the deeper worldview shaping it. They examine the escalating conflict, the strategic importance of the Strait of Hormuz, and the administration's apparent failure to anticipate Iran's most obvious leverage point. But beyond the geopolitics, Brad and Dan argue that something larger is at play: a model of “MAGA masculinity” that prizes action over thought, rejects expertise, and treats diplomacy and long-term relationships as weakness. From Pete Hegseth's press conferences to the firing of intelligence experts and counter-terrorism staff, they trace how a culture that glorifies brute force and disdain for knowledge can produce catastrophic decision-making—with real human costs. In the second half of the show, the conversation turns to newly released depositions from former DOGE officials tasked with slashing federal grants. The clips reveal young operatives with little expertise making sweeping cuts based largely on whether projects referenced feminism, LGBTQ people, or racial minorities—raising serious questions about the real meaning behind the administration's war on “DEI.” Brad and Dan connect these revelations back to their broader theme: a governing philosophy rooted in domination, resentment, and the rejection of intellectual or moral accountability. They close by asking whether the Iran conflict could fracture the MAGA coalition ahead of the midterms—and by reflecting on what healthier forms of masculinity, leadership, and public responsibility might look like in contrast.

The war with Iran has already killed more than a thousand Iranians, including 175 people killed at an elementary school on February 28th. According to multiple news outlets, a preliminary report from the U.S. military says the U.S. was at fault for that strike. President Donald Trump previously said Saturday that Iran was at fault for the attack and then, on Wednesday, replied, "I don't know about it," when a reporter asked him about the investigation. It's part of a larger pattern in the Trump administration's messaging about the war. From why we're in this conflict in the first place, to what our goals are, to when this war will end, there's a fog around everything. Arizona Democratic Senator Mark Kelly joins the show to discuss how members of Congress are dealing with the White House's stonewalling.And in headlines, President Donald Trump travels to Ohio and Kentucky to downplay concerns about the economy, no one has any idea what Kristi Noem's new job entails, and newly released deposition videos show a former DOGE staffer struggling to answer basic questions about DEI.Show Notes: Call Congress – 202-224-3121 Subscribe to the What A Day Newsletter – https://tinyurl.com/y4y2e9jy What A Day – YouTube – https://www.youtube.com/@whatadaypodcast Follow us on Instagram – https://www.instagram.com/crookedmedia/ For a transcript of this episode, please visit crooked.com/whataday
It's an Emmajority Report Thursday on The Majority Report On today's program: Palantir CEO Alex Karp is going out to promote Trump's war in Iran which I'm sure has nothing to do with his technology being heavily integrated into the operations. Karp also tries to appeal to MAGA men by claiming that the AI revolution will disempower highly educated women and empower working class men. Murtaza Hussain, journalist at Drop Site News join Emma for a conversation about the most recent updates in the war in Iran. In the Fun Half: Brandon Sutton and Matt Binder join Emma. Ed Gallrein, the Trump approved candidate primarying Thomas Massie joins the president onstage at a rally in Hebron, Kentucky. Joe Rogan just realized the Donald Trump is old. A former employee of Elon Musk's DOGE fails to define DEI but knows that a documentary about woman who were killed in the holocaust is DEI.

In this timely and important episode, Craig sits down with Lily Zheng, one of today's leading voices on workplace transformation, to tackle the challenges and evolution of DEI. Lily brings both research-backed frameworks and real-world pragmatism, reflecting on how shifting from DEI to FAIR offers a practical way through current backlash and confusion.Lily's refreshing candor provides a thought-provoking and valuable frame to the conversation. They don't shy from complexity, but treat hesitancy, fear, and failure as necessary parts of meaningful progress.The episode is filled with practical advice, including tying every initiative to a real business problem, focusing on behaviors not buzzwords, and the need for every leader to own the responsibility for inclusion. Technology's double-edged role is candidly discussed, warning leaders that AI will multiply both strengths and flaws.At its core, this episode asks: how do we actually do better? Lily urges leaders to focus on “atomic units” of behavioral change, reminding us that real progress is messy, ongoing, and built one intentional action at a time.What You'll Learn- The power and pitfalls of language in DEI work.- Navigating the politicization of inclusion.- Let data—not dogma—drive your priorities- Move beyond ‘admiring the problem': Replacing performative acts with real progress.- Redefining representation: Beyond the numbers.- Technology & AI: A double-edged sword.- The power of atomic units of change.Podcast Timestamps(00:00) - Introduction to Lily Zheng and the Origin of the Book(08:00) - Reframing DEI: Why Focus on Fairness?(14:41) – Lessons in Leadership: DEI Backlash(20:34) - From Performative to Problem-Solving DEI(25:15) - Systemic Change & Diversity Leadership(35:55) - Representation vs. Quotas and Building Trust(43:04) - Technology, AI & Fairness Risks(48:38) - FOFO: Fear of Finding Out and Organizational Reality(56:14) - The Atomic Unit: Driving Change Through BehaviorsKEYWORDSPositive Leadership, Fairness, DEI, Inclusion, Equity, Representation, Organizational Change, Systemic Change, Workplace Culture, Diversity, Performative DEI, Accountability, Unconscious Bias Training, Artificial Intelligence, Politics, Cultural Transformation, CEO Success
38 And Jesus rising up out of the synagogue, went into Simon's house. And Simon's wife's mother was taken with a great fever, and they besought him for her.Surgens autem Jesus de synagoga, introivit in domum Simonis. Socrus autem Simonis tenebatur magnis febribus : et rogaverunt illum pro ea. 39 And standing over her, he commanded the fever, and it left her. And immediately rising, she ministered to them.Et stans super illam imperavit febri : et dimisit illam. Et continuo surgens, ministrabat illis. 40 And when the sun was down, all they that had any sick with divers diseases, brought them to him. But he laying his hands on every one of them, healed them.Cum autem sol occidisset, omnes qui habebant infirmos variis languoribus, ducebant illos ad eum. At ille singulis manus imponens, curabat eos. 41 And devils went out from many, crying out and saying: Thou art the Son of God. And rebuking them he suffered them not to speak, for they knew that he was Christ.Exibant autem daemonia a multis clamantia, et dicentia : Quia tu es Filius Dei : et increpans non sinebat ea loqui : quia sciebant ipsum esse Christum. 42 And when it was day, going out he went into a desert place, and the multitudes sought him, and came unto him: and they stayed him that he should not depart from them.Facta autem die egressus ibat in desertum locum, et turbae requirebant eum, et venerunt usque ad ipsum : et detinebant illum ne discederet ab eis. 43 To whom he said: To other cities also I must preach the kingdom of God: for therefore am I sent.Quibus ille ait : Quia et aliis civitatibus oportet me evangelizare regnum Dei : quia ideo missus sum. 44 And he was preaching in the synagogues of Galilee.Et erat praedicans in synagogis Galilaeae.

Kentucky's war on woke is far from over—our public universities are openly defying the law!I talk with Adam Guillette from Accuracy In Media (AIM) to break down their recent explosive undercover investigations that have exposed Western Kentucky University and the University of Kentucky. Hidden cameras caught staff admitting DEI is still alive and embedded in curricula—rebranded, hidden, and funded by YOUR tax dollars—in direct violation of Kentucky's ban.We dive into the MOST RECENT video: AIM's undercover footage from Western Kentucky University (WKU), where an admin casually admits they're still forcing "anti-racism, diversity, equity, and inclusion" down students' throats using an accreditation loophole. They think we're too dumb to notice. Why does stopping these DEI policies matter? Because DEI lowers standards, discriminates against qualified Kentuckians based on race or sex, wastes millions in taxpayer money, and drags down academic excellence for EVERYONE.Plus: SB 199 lets chemical manufacturers hide real risks behind EPA-approved labels.

In part two of Red Eye Radio with Gary McNamara and Eric Harley, a Congressman grills a State Department official over ‘embarrassing' Biden-era grants to make maps 'more gay'. Rep Brian Mast questioned Sarah Rogers during a House committee hearing on public diplomacy and DEI regarding 'queering' the World Map. Also the LA Marathon has left some runners bent out of shape after announcing that participants can receive “finisher” medals even if they don't complete the 26.2-mile race. The McCourt Foundation, which hosts the Los Angeles Marathon, noted on its website that runners having a “tough day” can still go home with a medal if they can make it to the 18-mile mark during Sunday's race.

This is Part 2 of: “The Art of War for Inclusion: How to Beat Performative DEI at Work.” In this episode, we get practical about what it takes to move from public statements to real organizational change—especially in a climate where inclusion work is being scrutinized, politicized, or quietly rolled back.We reflect on the post–George Floyd corporate response cycle, the pushback from Black employees asking for genuine action (not optics), and what “accountability” actually looks like inside organizations. We also discuss how schools and institutions have responded to pressure around DEI programming, and how leaders can think through culture-building efforts while being mindful of risk.

Does Britain still have a coherent foreign policy? James Heale and Tim Shipman are joined by Ben Judah, former special adviser to David Lammy, and Ameer Kotecha, who recently resigned from the Foreign Office.Together they discuss why Britain's diplomatic establishment is under growing criticism – from accusations that the department has become bloated and distracted by DEI, to Chagos and deeper concerns that Whitehall no longer has the expertise or strategic clarity needed in an increasingly unstable world.With wars raging from Ukraine to the Middle East and tensions rising with China, they ask whether Britain has adapted to a more chaotic global order – or whether the country is still operating with the assumptions of a different era. They also debate the future of the ‘special relationship' and whether we would be better served by distancing ourselves from our increasingly erratic American cousins.Produced by Oscar Edmondson and Patrick Gibbons.

Assessing Academic Library Collections for Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (Bloomsbury, 2025) provides a practical, step-by-step approach to designing and implementing evaluation projects targeting a variety of DEI goals in academic library collections. Offering both flexibility and detailed guidance, this book begins with a discussion of aspects of diversity that librarians could target in their assessment projects and notes project planning considerations such as defining a scope and timeline. It particularly notes how larger academic libraries can narrow the scope of a project to make it feasible. Subsequent chapters explain different methods for assessing a collection, with many examples throughout. Methods include: - List-checking involves comparing the collection to a list of recommended books. - Metadata searching produces a count of library holdings that contain certain subject headings or use specific call numbers. - Diversity coding allows staff to create their own categories and assign them to books in a sample. All three of these methods can be used to analyze the collection by subject matter. It is possible to use diversity coding to examine author identities as well, a sensitive endeavor for which this book provides both cautions and guidance. A fourth approach focuses on organizational efforts or inputs. This method involves tracking and reflecting on the library's progress towards goals the staff have set, which could involve a variety of collections-related activities, including staff development, changes to workflows, revising policies, or increasing outreach. The book describes advantages and limitations of the four methods, allowing librarians to make an informed choice of which to use. It also offers resources for implementing each of these strategies as well as guidance on creating one's own evaluation tools. Three chapters by guest authors provide examples of DEI assessment projects from academic libraries. A concluding chapter discusses sharing findings and suggests a range of changes libraries can make to their collecting practices. Guest: Karen Kohn is the Collections Analysis Librarian at Temple University in Philadelphia, where she serves on the DEI in Collections Committee and the Open Education Group. Host: Dr. Michael LaMagna is the Information Literacy Program & Library Services Coordinator and Professor of Library Services at Delaware County Community College. Learn more about your ad choices.

14 And he was casting out a devil, and the same was dumb: and when he had cast out the devil, the dumb spoke: and the multitudes were in admiration at it:Et erat ejiciens daemonium, et illud erat mutum. Et cum ejecisset daemonium, locutus est mutus, et admiratae sunt turbae. 15 But some of them said: He casteth out devils by Beelzebub, the prince of devils.Quidam autem ex eis dixerunt : In Beelzebub principe daemoniorum ejicit daemonia. 16 And others tempting, asked of him a sign from heaven.Et alii tentantes, signum de caelo quaerebant ab eo. 17 But he seeing their thoughts, said to them: Every kingdom divided against itself, shall be brought to desolation, and house upon house shall fall.Ipse autem ut vidit cogitationes eorum, dixit eis : Omne regnum in seipsum divisum desolabitur, et domus supra domum cadet. 18 And if Satan also be divided against himself, how shall his kingdom stand? because you say, that through Beelzebub I cast out devils.Si autem et Satanas in seipsum divisus est, quomodo stabit regnum ejus? quia dicitis in Beelzebub me ejicere daemonia. 19 Now if I cast out devils by Beelzebub; by whom do your children cast them out? Therefore they shall be your judges.Si autem ego in Beelzebub ejicio daemonia : filii vestri in quo ejiciunt? ideo ipsi judices vestri erunt. 20 But if I by the finger of God cast out devils; doubtless the kingdom of God is come upon you.Porro si in digito Dei ejicio daemonia : profecto pervenit in vos regnum Dei. 21 When a strong man armed keepeth his court, those things are in peace which he possesseth.Cum fortis armatus custodit atrium suum, in pace sunt ea quae possidet. 22 But if a stronger than he come upon him, and overcome him; he will take away all his armour wherein he trusted, and will distribute his spoils.Si autem fortior eo superveniens vicerit eum, universa arma ejus auferet, in quibus confidebat, et spolia ejus distribuet. 23 He that is not with me, is against me; and he that gathereth not with me, scattereth.Qui non est mecum, contra me est : et qui non colligit mecum, dispergit. 24 When the unclean spirit is gone out of a man, he walketh through places without water, seeking rest; and not finding, he saith: I will return into my house whence I came out.Cum immundus spiritus exierit de homine, ambulat per loca inaquosa, quaerens requiem : et non inveniens dicit : Revertar in domum meam unde exivi. 25 And when he is come, he findeth it swept and garnished.Et cum venerit, invenit eam scopis mundatam, et ornatam. 26 Then he goeth and taketh with him seven other spirits more wicked than himself, and entering in they dwell there. And the last state of that man becomes worse than the first.Tunc vadit, et assumit septem alios spiritus secum, nequiores se, et ingressi habitant ibi. Et fiunt novissima hominis illius pejora prioribus. 27 And it came to pass, as he spoke these things, a certain woman from the crowd, lifting up her voice, said to him: Blessed is the womb that bore thee, and the paps that gave thee suck.Factum est autem, cum haec diceret : extollens vocem quaedam mulier de turba dixit illi : Beatus venter qui te portavit, et ubera quae suxisti. 28 But he said: Yea rather, blessed are they who hear the word of God, and keep it.At ille dixit : Quinimmo beati, qui audiunt verbum Dei et custodiunt illud.

Assessing Academic Library Collections for Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (Bloomsbury, 2025) provides a practical, step-by-step approach to designing and implementing evaluation projects targeting a variety of DEI goals in academic library collections. Offering both flexibility and detailed guidance, this book begins with a discussion of aspects of diversity that librarians could target in their assessment projects and notes project planning considerations such as defining a scope and timeline. It particularly notes how larger academic libraries can narrow the scope of a project to make it feasible. Subsequent chapters explain different methods for assessing a collection, with many examples throughout. Methods include: - List-checking involves comparing the collection to a list of recommended books. - Metadata searching produces a count of library holdings that contain certain subject headings or use specific call numbers. - Diversity coding allows staff to create their own categories and assign them to books in a sample. All three of these methods can be used to analyze the collection by subject matter.

Does Britain still have a coherent foreign policy? James Heale and Tim Shipman are joined by Ben Judah, former special adviser to David Lammy, and Ameer Kotecha, who recently resigned from the Foreign Office.Together they discuss why Britain's diplomatic establishment is under growing criticism – from accusations that the department has become bloated and distracted by DEI, to Chagos and deeper concerns that Whitehall no longer has the expertise or strategic clarity needed in an increasingly unstable world.With wars raging from Ukraine to the Middle East and tensions rising with China, they ask whether Britain has adapted to a more chaotic global order – or whether the country is still operating with the assumptions of a different era. They also debate the future of the ‘special relationship' and whether we would be better served by distancing ourselves from our increasingly erratic American cousins.Produced by Oscar Edmondson and Patrick Gibbons.Become a Spectator subscriber today to access this podcast without adverts.

Something interesting happened today.Joe Biden made a public appearance… and suddenly the internet decided the last four years never happened.Cable news panels and political influencers immediately started telling Americans how “presidential” Biden looked simply for walking into a room and shaking a few hands.But tonight on Throwback Thursday, we're bringing receipts.Because if Americans forget what actually happened during the Biden presidency… someone will try to convince them it never did.Tonight we revisit the Biden Years:• The censorship era and the Disinformation Governance Board• Corporate America's DEI obsession and cultural insanity• Inflation that hit the highest levels in 40 years• Gas prices that made commuting feel like a luxury purchase• The Afghanistan withdrawal disaster• The Ukraine war and global instability• The Chinese spy balloon crossing the United States• Record border crossings and overwhelmed cities• And of course… the presidential gaffes that the media pretended not to seeBecause memory matters.If a country forgets what just happened… it becomes very easy to repeat it.This episode of The Last Gay Conservative is a reminder of what America actually lived through — and why remembering it matters.00:00 Cold Open – Biden's “Presidential” Appearance02:30 Show Intro05:20 Segment 1 – Culture & Censorship07:10 The Disinformation Governance Board09:30 Big Tech and Government Censorship12:30 The DEI Corporate Era16:30 Pronouns and Cultural Enforcement20:45 Segment 2 – The Biden Economy22:00 Inflation Hits 40-Year High25:10 Grocery Prices and Shrinkflation27:30 Gas Prices Surge29:45 Housing Market Shock31:50 Recession Definition Controversy34:00 Segment 3 – Global Chaos35:20 Afghanistan Collapse38:30 Ukraine War Begins41:30 Chinese Spy Balloon Incident43:20 Border Crisis and Record Crossings47:10 Segment 4 – The “Presidential” Years48:10 Biden Gaffes and Media Double Standards50:30 Trump vs Biden Leadership Contrast53:00 Lockdowns and Pandemic Aftermath56:30 Reagan Reminder58:30 Episode Close#BidenYears#ThrowbackThursday#Politics#ConservativePodcast#LastGayConservative
On tonight's program: The House Speaker explains why some priority bills in the Senate won't be heard in his chamber; The ongoing campaign against DEI continues in the Florida Senate, although some supporters insist that's not what's going on at all; Governor DeSantis' push to regulate AI providers seems to be losing steam; It seems some of the worst misinformation doesn't only appear on English language talk radio; It's not only obtaining the product that challenges Florida's food banks. It's also keeping the product safe and wholesome once it's obtained; After years of bad news, there may finally be a bit of positive news about Florida's iconic citrus products; Special congressional elections may be moving from April to June; And fifth grade may seem awfully early to start teaching kids about the dangers of drugs and alcohol, but those who deal with these issues everyday say, wrong!
33 Hear ye another parable. There was a man an householder, who planted a vineyard, and made a hedge round about it, and dug in it a press, and built a tower, and let it out to husbandmen; and went into a strange country.Aliam parabolam audite : Homo erat paterfamilias, qui plantavit vineam, et sepem circumdedit ei, et fodit in ea torcular, et aedificavit turrim, et locavit eam agricolis, et peregre profectus est. 34 And when the time of the fruits drew nigh, he sent his servants to the husbandmen that they might receive the fruits thereof.Cum autem tempus fructuum appropinquasset, misit servos suos ad agricolas, ut acciperent fructus ejus. 35 And the husbandmen laying hands on his servants, beat one, and killed another, and stoned another.Et agricolae, apprehensis servis ejus, alium ceciderunt, alium occiderunt, alium vero lapidaverunt. 36 Again he sent other servants more than the former; and they did to them in like manner.Iterum misit alios servos plures prioribus, et fecerunt illis similiter. 37 And last of all he sent to them his son, saying: They will reverence my son.Novissime autem misit ad eos filium suum, dicens : Verebuntur filium meum. 38 But the husbandmen seeing the son, said among themselves: This is the heir: come, let us kill him, and we shall have his inheritance.Agricolae autem videntes filium dixerunt intra se : Hic est haeres, venite, occidamus eum, et habebimus haereditatem ejus. 39 And taking him, they cast him forth out of the vineyard, and killed him.Et apprehensum eum ejecerunt extra vineam, et occiderunt. 40 When therefore the lord of the vineyard shall come, what will he do to those husbandmen?Cum ergo venerit dominus vineae, quid faciet agricolis illis? 41 They say to him: He will bring those evil men to an evil end; and will let out his vineyard to other husbandmen, that shall render him the fruit in due season.Aiunt illi : Malos male perdet : et vineam suam locabit aliis agricolis, qui reddant ei fructum temporibus suis. 42 Jesus saith to them: Have you never read in the Scriptures: The stone which the builders rejected, the same is become the head of the corner? By the Lord this has been done; and it is wonderful in our eyes.Dicit illis Jesus : Numquam legistis in Scripturis : Lapidem quem reprobaverunt aedificantes, hic factus est in caput anguli : a Domino factum est istud, et est mirabile in oculis nostris? 43 Therefore I say to you, that the kingdom of God shall be taken from you, and shall be given to a nation yielding the fruits thereof.Ideo dico vobis, quia auferetur a vobis regnum Dei, et dabitur genti facienti fructus ejus. 44 And whosoever shall fall on this stone, shall be broken: but on whomsoever it shall fall, it shall grind him to powder.Et qui ceciderit super lapidem istum, confringetur : super quem vero ceciderit, conteret eum. 45 And when the chief priests and Pharisees had heard his parables, they knew that he spoke of them.Et cum audissent principes sacerdotum et pharisaei parabolas ejus, cognoverunt quod de ipsis diceret. 46 And seeking to lay hands on him, they feared the multitudes: because they held him as a prophet.Et quaerentes eum tenere, timuerunt turbas : quoniam sicut prophetam eum habebant.

Grant and Roger open with a heartfelt tribute to Matty Cutler, the quietly brilliant sports‑biz pioneer who helped spark this whole project. From there they dive into shadow banking and private equity creeping through sport's finances, before landing on the U.S. Olympic hockey furore, media echo chambers, DEI rollbacks and a brutally honest question: has multicultural “integration” actually worked, or is sport just the latest battlefield in a culture war nobody's winning?

Politically "independent" used to mean you were moderate. Not anymore. It's no secret that Americans are politically divided, as faith in political parties erodes. In the past, so-called "independent" voters were likely shifting between Democrats and Republicans. But now, especially Gen-Z, are pushing in new directions, far from the center. In this episode, we explore how "independent" became a rallying cry for change on the left and the right. Danielle Kurtzleben guest hosts with Elena Moore, a political reporter for NPR, and Dr. Omar Ali, a professor of African American political history at UNC & author of In the Balance of Power: Independent Black Politics and Third Party Movements in the United States.Want more episodes on political culture?

On today's show, host Dana Pellebon is in conversation with Misty L. Heggeness about her new book, Swiftynomics: How Women Mastermind and Redefine Our Economy. Heggeness is a professional economist, and in her book she blends a data-driven approach to women's work and gender analysis. She says that economics is a useful tool for understanding how people behave at a societal scale and in our homes. Taylor Swift is Heggeness's muse, helping Heggeness describe economic trends. For instance, the average income of a woman who lives in one of the cities where Taylor Swift's Eras Tour stopped is only $30K-$40K. This tells us about the economic status of women today, especially when you break down salaries by profession. However, Heggeness insists that women have significant economic power–as consumers and in their homes. On average, women do an hour more economic work a day than men, says Heggeness. Heggeness says that the field of economics is a male-dominated field and she wanted to write her book to center women, like her grandmother who was “the most efficient CEO of her household and garden” in the stories we tell about the economy. Taylor Swift becomes the stand in for the “modern” millennial woman who has greater educational attainment and is delaying marriage and having kids. Contrary to previous generations, folks today are getting married based on shared interests, rather than on building efficient households, says Heggeness. They also discuss how Kansas recently revoked the drivers licenses of trans women and men, how consumers boycotted Target after the company turned its back on DEI, and how too many people making policy decisions have “care privilege.” She wants to see more care givers voted into office. Note: This pledge drive interview was edited to remove parts of the show dedicated to station fundraising. We thank our listeners for their generous support. Misty L. Heggeness is co-director of the Kansas Population Center, Associate Professor of Economics and Public Affairs at the University of Kansas, and former Principal Economist and Senior Advisor at the US Census Bureau. She is also creator of The Care Board, a dashboard of economic statistics built by and for caregivers that brings their economic contributions into the fold. Her new book Swiftynomics: How Women Mastermind and Redefine Our Economy merges three passions – economics, women's rights, and, of course, Taylor Swift. She has over a decade of experience leading high-profile research that informed decision-making within the U.S. federal government.

In this episode we sit down with April Hicke, co-founder and CEO of Toast, to explore how she's transforming the tech hiring landscape for women with innovative, bias-reducing approaches. We delve into April's unconventional path to entrepreneurship, her strategies for building a purpose-driven company without venture capital, and the systemic challenges women face—and overcome—within the tech industry.The origin story of Toast: how personal and industry experiences with gender inequities inspired a new model for tech hiring.Why Toast avoids venture capital and the pros and cons of bootstrapping a mission-driven business.The dual focus on supporting companies in diverse hiring and empowering women via membership, community, and direct resources.Barriers to expansion, including legal challenges to DEI efforts in the U.S., and how Toast navigates international opportunities.The importance of mentorship, male allyship ("Champions" program), and building social capital—plus creative initiatives like "Men in Tech" panels that flip the script on common professional narratives.TLDR:April Hicke demonstrates the power of challenging the status quo in tech by centering women's needs, community, and bias-free hiring, while resisting external pressures to compromise her company's mission. Her journey reminds us that shifting systems requires bravery, creative problem-solving, and building bridges with allies—especially when advocating for women's equity in male-dominated industries.Thank you for listening!If this episode inspired you, please screenshot and share it on social media—be sure to tag @meganswanwellness so we can cheer you on.

Today Allie responds to CNN's new documentary on “Christian nationalism,” arguing that what's being labeled as dangerous extremism is often just historic, biblical Christianity applied to culture, law, and education. She also contrasts the Christian view of the imago Dei, where every person has innate worth, with practices like infanticide, abortion, and gendercide around the world. Allie responds to John Piper's tweet on immigration and gives a biblical perspective on the matter. Allie gives examples of practices in the Muslim world that are being imported by winsome Christians at their own peril.

More To The Story: Just a few years ago, historian and activist Ibram X. Kendi seemed to be everywhere. At the height of the Black Lives Matter movement, he became one of the leading voices on racism in America—and particularly what he described as antiracism. But over the last few years, as a backlash grew against the BLM movement, Kendi also came under attack. His ideas urging people to be actively antiracist were often the target of conservative critics fighting against DEI policies and the teaching of critical race theory. Kendi was also accused of mismanaging an antiracism center at Boston University, which laid off much of its staff before closing last year (BU cleared Kendi of financial mismanagement.) On this week's More To The Story, Kendi responds to the criticism he faced at BU and argues that the Trump administration's policies are harming both white and Black Americans.This is an update of an episode that originally aired in July 2025.Producer: Josh Sanburn, with help from Zulema Cobb and Julia Haney | Editor: Kara McGuirk-Allison | Theme music: Fernando Arruda and Jim Briggs | Copy editor: Nikki Frick | Digital producer: Artis Curiskis | Deputy executive producer: Taki Telonidis | Executive producer: Brett Myers | Executive editor: James West | Host: Al LetsonListen: Black in the Sunshine State (Reveal)Read: I'm Racist.

Savage tackles "the big lie," saying truth is harder to find because lying is normalized and people have lost the ability to reason. He references Hitler-era propaganda tactics and argues modern media operates as propaganda, while toxic "airs, waters, and places" fuel public confusion and health decline. Savage credits his immigrant father for teaching him to think independently by comparing multiple news sources, then criticizes collapsing education standards and DEI-driven admissions. He scans current headlines—NYC schools and taxes, Mexico cartel violence, Trump's upcoming State of the Union, Epstein depravity, birth-rate collapse, public Islam displays in Times Square, crime, and Gavin Newsom's SAT comments—framing them as examples of narrative manipulation. He ends with a Tahoe avalanche account blaming risky route choices and closes by warning that health and supplements are also saturated with "big lies," urging listeners to think for themselves.
