Podcasts about Detention

Visionary director Joseph Kahn (DETENTION, BODIED, TORQUE) joins Adam and Joe in the ArieScope studio to discuss his incredible career journey and the making of his new film ICK (in theaters now). From learning how to speak the language of cinema in the 80's thanks to Spielberg films and MTV… to how a fake company name and a briefcase led to him becoming one of the greatest music video directors in history working with artists like TAYLOR SWIFT, KORN, MUSE, BRITNEY SPEARS, PUBLIC ENEMY, ROB ZOMBIE, and more… to the trials of making his first feature TORQUE and his creative redemption with DETENTION and BODIED… to how he's broken down filmmaking into “science” and “language” and his theory of “5th Dimensional edits”… to the making of his new movie ICK and why it's all still “a struggle”, whether its a Taylor Swift video or his latest feature film… this amazing, no f's given conversation with one of the signature visual voices in pop-culture has been a long time coming!

My guest today Professor Alan Dershowitz, an American lawyer and law professor known for his work in U.S. constitutional and criminal law. From 1964 to 2013, he taught at Harvard Law School  Mr. Dershowitz has taken on high-profile and often unpopular causes and clients. As he has represented such celebrity clients as Mike Tyson, Patty Hearst, Leona Helmsley, Julian Assange, and Jim Bakker.  He is a regular media contributor, political commentator, and legal analyst. He is here today to discuss his new book, The Preventive State: The Challenge of Preventing Serious Harms while Preserving Essential Liberties. Ladies and gentlemen, if reliable but uncertain intelligence predicted a mass casualty terrorist attack and indicated likely suspects, what preventive actions would be constitutionally authorized? Detention? Interrogation? Torture?  What if the attack involved a weaponized virus? Should the government compel widespread inoculation that might kill hundreds of people while saving millions? What if an article describing how to circumvent the inoculation mandate was about to be published? Should censorship of the article be authorized? These are the sorts of questions Professor Alan Dershowitz has been asking for more than 60 years, in his teaching, writing, and litigation.  In it, he suggests an overarching jurisprudential framework that would set limits to the ballooning power of what he calls “the preventive state.”  This important book offers unprecedented insights into one of the most under-examined developments of our age: the growing magnitude and frequency of cataclysmic threats, coupled with the increasingly effective—but increasingly intrusive—tools intended to predict and prevent them. This masterful analysis should be read by everyone who cares about security, liberty, and democracy. #alandershowitz #politics #preventivestate #government #law #lawyer #justice #judicialsystem #bail #sentencing #detention #israeliran #israel #iran #unitedstates #gaza #9/11 #RFK #JFK #malcolmX #MLK #martinlutherkingjr #civilliberties #trials

The Voice Of GO(r)D podcast is very happy to bring you a discussion with former MIT Data Scientist Dr. David Correll, whose work within MIT FreightLab, a project of the MIT Center for Transportation and Logistics, examines the mother of all problems in trucking, and the one that begets so many others, DETENTION.For non-truckers, detention is when trucks are held up for unreasonable amounts of time in the loading and unloading process at customer facilities. Some facility operators are notorious for this, and I have spent days trying to get certain things unloaded, and will share a particularly egregious example in the book I am writing on the fate of the North American Trucker in 2025. (see details below)Everyone remembers seeing footage of a hundred container ships waiting to be docked at the Port Of Long Beach/Los Angeles during Covid - imagine that this is what its like in many sectors of trucking, except it happens all the time, year in, year out, and has been this way since forever.Dr. Correll's research concludes, in his words, that America leaves “40% of its trucking capacity on the table every day” due to this pernicious and seemingly intractable problem, which is the proximate cause of -- Truck driver churn and retention issues- Speeding and aggressive driving behavior which pose a saftey hazard on our roads, and has resulted in the imposition of ELDs and other surveillance tech into the lives of truckers- Shippers being ghosted by carriers who find better facilities to work with- The wasting of millenia, yes, literally thousands of years worth of valuable human capital. Multiply all of the hours lost times millions of truckers times decades of this problem …. and its probably more than millenia.- An unnecessary drag on the resiliency of American supply chains.We had an interesting discussion that covers detention and then connects it to these other issues, and we also discuss possible solutions.You can read all about it at the following links -David's testimony to the Biden ‘Trucking Task Force' -https://www.congress.gov/117/meeting/house/114233/witnesses/HHRG-117-PW0Wstate-CorrellD-20211117.pdfDavid at Medium -https://medium.com/mitsupplychain/is-there-a-truck-driver-shortage-or-a-capacity-crisis-73a7d7a5bcbFrom MIT's own news site -https://news.mit.edu/2022/are-supply-chains-stuck-detention-0425Some FreightLabs research papers for your perusal -https://dspace.mit.edu/handle/1721.1/130093https://dspace.mit.edu/handle/1721.1/142935https://dspace.mit.edu/handle/1721.1/126383You can find Dr. Correll onlinehttps://www.linkedin.com/in/davidhccorrell/https://x.com/DavidHCCorrellPlease enjoy this musical interlude - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c7kwFSp7yh4&list=RDc7kwFSp7yh4&start_radio=1I have written extensively about one of the solutions to this problem, and that solution has been sitting in Congress for 3 years, waiting to be acted upon.

Queens high school student Derlis Toaquiza is expected to be released soon after spending more than a month in immigration detention.

In this biting exchange, the hosts criticize Democrats' focus on conditions at the controversial migrant detention center dubbed “Alligator Alcatraz.” They mock Florida Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz's emotional objections to detainees sharing bathroom facilities behind partial privacy walls, arguing that such concerns overshadow the real crisis—violent criminals among illegal immigrants, including sex offenders, murderers, and MS-13 gang members. Drawing comparisons to conflict zones in Iraq and Gaza, the hosts liken recent armed attacks on ICE and border agents to acts of civil guerrilla warfare. They contrast Democrats' outrage over alleged inhumane treatment with their silence about American victims of brutal crimes committed by illegal immigrants. Ultimately, the segment condemns what they see as political theater and selective compassion that ignores public safety.

ICE Safeguarding America's Future: The Transformative Benefits of ICE's Detention and Deportation Effort What is ICE really doing—and why does it matter now more than ever?

From intercepting violent criminals to shutting down trafficking networks, ICE's impact is real, measurable, and urgent.Get the Research Notes for FREE: https://professornez.kit.com/icereport▶Sign up to our Free Newsletter, so you never miss out: https://bio.site/professornez▶Original, Made in the USA Neznation Patriot Merch: https://professornez.myspreadshop.com/all

Why Did It Take So Long to Arrest An SC Lawmaker Charged With Distributing Videos of Men Raping Babies?   Investigative journalists Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell are accustomed to being disgusted by politicians who happily take part in the Good Ole Boy system when it comes to protecting bad actors from taking accountability. But this latest case has them screaming with anger.  Last month, South Carolina state Rep. Robert John “RJ” May III was arrested and charged with 10 federal counts of distributing child sex abuse materials. So why is it taking so long for RJ May to be removed from office? Why was there so much hesitation and delay before arresting him? And why was his case given to two agencies that had very personal ties to him?  Mandy and Liz explore the answers to those questions, as well as the biggest question of all: Why aren't men accused of perpetuating such vile and heinous abuse of children — including babies — not seen as immediate potential threats to society?  Plus, (24:30) Part Two of our real-time coverage of the Scott Spivey shooting (AKA the Horry County Police Department corruption case) about Weldon Boyd's star witness, Witness No. 1. Mandy and Liz continue connecting the dots and digging into the inconsistencies in witness testimony and have found themselves at a complete loss for why the South Carolina Attorney General's Office continues to refuse to appoint a special prosecutor to the state's biggest “Stand Your Ground” case.  Let's dive in!

AP correspondent Julie Walker reports Mahmoud Khalil has filed a multimillion dollar suit against the Trump administration.

Jonny and Heather begin with a thesis that the weather is transphobic. This not-entirely-serious claim is used as a foil to discuss disinformation and misinformation campaigns. They examine several current event stories impacted by such spin, including: the Texas floods, the Everglades detention center, myths about undocumented immigration, and trans ban legislation.In the back half of the show, Jonny picks up the thread of AI's role in producing deep fakes and contributing to disinformation campaigns, but then offeres a more queer/nonbnary take on AI that examines ethical possibilities and recurrent fantasies about the nonnormative potential of robots.

Just over a year ago, Virginia closed four prisons run by the state. Part of President Donald Trump's budget bill included billions in new funds for detaining those taken by Immigration and Customs Enforcement. And in some places, that's meant reopening old facilities, as Brad Kutner reports.

The Hidden Lightness with Jimmy Hinton – At Morse High School in Bath, Maine, school counselor Leslie Trundy is offering students a choice: stay in a silent classroom or take a reflective hike through the woods.

The Department of Homeland Security has greenlit a bold and controversial new detention center in Florida—nicknamed “Alligator Alcatraz.” Located deep in the Everglades, this massive facility will use natural wildlife like alligators and pythons as a perimeter, housing up to 5,000 undocumented immigrants.Proposed by Florida AG James Uthmeier and backed by DHS Secretary Kristi Noem, the $450 million-a-year site will be built with tents and trailers, funded in part by FEMA. Critics warn of serious environmental and human rights concerns—is this the future of immigration enforcement in America?

It's Thursday, and The Times Picayune/the Advocate's editorial director and columnist Stephanie Grace is here to talk politics. Today she discusses why some Republican lawmakers are walking back their initial support for Medicaid cuts, and tells us about a rising democratic star in Louisiana politics.Most Louisianans are familiar with the term “Cancer Alley,” referring to the stretch of land between Baton Rouge and New Orleans where petrochemical facilities have allegedly contributed to high rates of cancer. Now state residents are learning of a new term, “Detention Alley", as rural parts of the state are turning into hubs for immigration enforcement, with skyrocketing numbers of people in custody. Molly Hennessy-Fiske, a reporter for the Washington Post, has spent time in “Detention Alley,” specifically, the town of Winnfield. She joins us to discuss the emotional impacts and economic boosts the rural community is experiencing. CLECO, the utility company that provides electricity to nearly 300,000 customers in 24 Louisiana parishes, is searching for a buyer.

In this episode of TV Tortured Together, Jacob and Laura time-travel back to the glory days of Boy Meets World, where life lessons were served daily—usually by a wise man peeking over a fence. They unpack the genius of Mr. Feeny, who somehow managed to teach every subject, solve every emotional crisis, and never age. Jacob compares detention to a low-budget horror movie, while Laura insists it was more like forced meditation with fluorescent lighting. They hilariously debate who they'd be in the Boy Meets World universe (spoiler: Jacob thinks he's Shawn, Laura thinks he's Minkus), then spiral into a late-'90s scary movie flashback and an unexpected argument over whether the theme song is a bop or a skip. Come for the nostalgia, stay for the Feeny fangirling and theme song drama.Chapters00:00 Introduction to TV Torture Together00:58 Current TV Shows and Anticipation01:51 Nostalgia for 90s TV Shows02:49 Deep Dive into Boy Meets World05:35 Character Dynamics and Relationships08:34 Detention and Consequences11:14 The Horror Elements in the Episode14:13 The Climax and Revelations18:04 Conclusion and Reflections on the EpisodeCheckout the new Hopecast website:https://thehopecastnetwork.com/Buy Merch here:https://www.bonfire.com/store/the-hopecast-network-swag/This show is brought to you by The Hopecast Networkhttps://www.instagram.com/hopecastnetwork/

In this explosive two-part episode, Tara dives into the absurd and the alarming. First, it's a mix of comedy and caution with the viral phenomenon “Office Chair Butt”—how sedentary lifestyles are reshaping more than just our routines. Tara and Producer Tim share laughs and fitness hacks, including a shocking Washington Post test that claims to predict your odds of dying within a decade. Spoiler: it's harder than it sounds! Then, things get serious fast. Tara unpacks the jaw-dropping arrest of NYC Comptroller Brad Lander after he tried to detain ICE agents, exposing the double standard of justice for Democrats. She slams the left's delusional view of immigration and defends the legal immigrant officers Lander tried to confront. The second half zeroes in on the dangerous game with Iran. With Trump now saying “I was the hunted, now I'm the hunter,” Tara argues the Ayatollah's assassination plots and nuclear ambitions leave no room for compromise. Is regime change the only way forward? From gym gossip to global threats, this episode is a wild, unfiltered ride through the cultural and political battlegrounds shaping America's future.

When New York City Comptroller and mayoral candidate Brad Lander was arrested at immigration court on Monday while escorting an immigrant, then threatened with assault charges despite video evidence to the contrary, he became the latest victim of the Trump regime's effort to “liberate” Americans from their local elected officials.At the time of his arrest, Lander was working with the group Immigrant ARC to help immigrants resist DHS's latest strategy to deny them due process: “dismissing” their deportation cases and thus stripping them of their status as asylum seekers — making them eligible for immediate arrest by waiting ICE agents. We talked to Lander about this cynical legal innovation by the Trump regime to purge immigrants without due process, what he learned talking to his jailers, and how he would fight on as mayor.“These are gestapo tactics,” Lander told us.We are opening this video to all.
