On the Tuesday, Aug. 12th edition of Georgia Today: Investigators say last week's shooting at the CDC was motivated by discontent with COVID-19 vaccines; health leaders warn schools about e-cigarettes that look like highlighters; and some bad news for Georgia beekeepers.
After a period of relative calm in congressional elections prior to 2006, America has experienced a series of highly competitive, volatile national elections. Since then, at least one of the US House, US Senate, and presidency has flipped party control--often with a large House or Senate seat swing--with the exception of the 2012 election. In Waves of Discontent, Jacob F. H. Smith argues that a pervasive feeling of displeasure in the American public has caused this increase in electoral volatility. Examining the consequences of volatility in congressional elections reveals that political amateurs are more likely to win in wave years than in normal years. Based on this data, Smith presents a new theory about the policy process--the policy doom loop--in which frustration among voters at both the inability of Congress to pass policy and anger at policies that actually do pass results in even more churn in congressional elections. Waves of Discontent offers some suggestions to promote constructive policymaking efforts in Washington to reduce frustration in the electorate. Learn more about your ad choices.

Off the heels of their successful Metal Blade Records debut, The Oncoming Storm, Boston metalcore shredders Unearth were set to unleash a much-anticipated follow-up. Stepping out of their comfort zone, they recruited legendary producer Terry Date to forge what became the band's most aggressive and vitriolic album to date: 2006's cutting III: In The Eyes Of Fire.With scathing tracks like "Giles," "This Time Was Mine," and "Imposter Kingdom," the band truly set themselves apart from the pack.Joining us this week is special guest Owen Morawitz (The Pitch of Discontent) to discuss Unearth's legacy and their mastery of "the breakdown."Follow The Pitch of DiscontentYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCT94iQy4Opeeq1-r0yQxZcgSpotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/6Kb5sztDISleZsxfEjyHV4Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-pitch-of-discontent/id1756206561Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thepitchofdiscontentBluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/pitchdiscontent.bsky.socialFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/ThePitchofDiscontentRecommendations:Upon Stone - End Time LightningWeeping Sores - The Convalescence AgoniesPSYCHO-FRAME - SALVATION LAUGHS IN THE FACE OF A GRIEVING MOTHERAtræ Bilis - AumicideThe Armed - THE FUTURE IS HERE AND EVERYTHING NEEDS TO BE DESTROYEDTerminal Sleep - They Circle BelowBlood On My Hands - Death Through DevotionFollow Riff WorshipInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/riffworshippod/Twitter: https://x.com/RiffWorshipPodYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@RiffWorshipPodCheck out our Official Playlists:Riffs on Repeat (Spotify)Hits from the Crypt (Apple)
Sir Andy Cooke, HM Chief Inspector of Constabulary, has told the Sunday Telegraph that there is “every possibility” of rioting this summer, in a repeat of last year's unrest following the Southport murders, as the same ingredients that fuelled that disorder are still very much in place now.With anger at the housing of migrants in hotels spilling over into more violent demonstrations at the weekend, as well as the Telegraph's exclusive story that pro-Palestinian supporters are co-orindating in an attempt to overwhelm the police, are we on the brink of major civil unrest?Gordon Rayner and Cleo Watson are joined by Martin Evans, the Telegraph's Crime Editor, who's been speaking to sources within the police to find out how braced for trouble they are, whilst Cleo reveals how Downing Street may be unprepared with Westminster in summer shutdown.Producers: Lilian Fawcett and Georgia CoanSenior Producer: John CadiganPlanning Editor: Venetia RaineyVideo Editor: Will WaltersStudio Director: Meghan SearleExecutive Producer: Louisa Wells Hosted on Acast.

This episode is a mini-documentary made by Paul that was originally featured in episode 54 of the fantastic Winter Of Discontent podcast. That show looks in forensic detail at the Nagra tapes of the Get Back sessions and Paul contributed this research package - all about the Lawrence Wright music catalogue, to the show. It's a ten minute look into the background of why Dick James was so excited to share news of this publishing purchase coup with the boys, as seen in the Get Back documentary. If you enjoy this little snippet, then you'll love Winter of Discontent, so look it up in the usual pod places.We will be back with more specials over the next few months so stay tuned!
As part of this month's atypical series recounting long past live performances from my youth, this is an original song from a lo-fi tape of the LYL Band performing at the University of Minnesota's Wiley Hall in 1981. "China Mouth" is a Surrealistic discontented Summer song, somewhat of a contrast to the LYL Band's usual early Eighties repertoire that focused on satire and comment on current events and social issues. The Parlando Project combines various words (usually others' literary poetry) with original music in differing styles. We've done over 800 of these combinations, and you can hear any of them or read more about the 1981 concert that this song was performed at by going to our blog and archives located at frankhudson.org
The Atlanta Braves unfortunately picked up right where they left off, opening the second half with a disappointing series loss to the New York Yankees. Grant McAuley sizes up where the Braves find themselves after stumbling to start the second half, the unusual place the club finds itself in as the trade deadline approaches, some signs of life for a pair of struggling players, the impressive right arm of Ronald Acuña Jr., strong hitting from the Atlanta catching duo leading to a lineup change and much more. Special guest Gaurav Vedak of Baseball Prospectus joins the show to recap the MLB Draft for the Braves, who strayed from their usual strategy of loading up on pitchers and instead focused on some impressive position player selections. That plus a look at the effect this class could have on the Braves minor league system. From The Diamond airs live on 92-9 The Game in Atlanta on Sundays throughout baseball season. You can also subscribe wherever you get your podcasts. Every episode of the show and more great Braves coverage is available at FromTheDiamond.com.
Each Sunday we will tackle a subtle, often-overlooked sin that Christians tend to tolerate in themselves and others—sins that don't make headlines but quietly erode spiritual health and community life. Inspired by Jerry Bridges' book Respectable Sins: Confronting the Sins We Tolerate, this series will help us examine our hearts and pursue holiness with humility and dependence on grace. Our goal is to shine the light of Scripture on sins we often excuse, minimize, or overlook – and to rediscover the power of the gospel to transform even the most “acceptable” patterns of sin.

In 1976, Jim Callaghan took over from Harold Wilson as leader of the Labour Party and British Prime Minister. He was a competent politician, though not an outstanding one. He did his job well, but he was far from up to taking on an adversary as forceful as the leader of the Conservative Party, Maggie Thatcher.Callaghan's was the last government of the post-war consensus, based on a belief in a generalised social democracy, seeking to provide the social services needed to ensure that everyone could count on a safety net when one was needed, and built on a foundation of Keynesian economics. Thatcher rejected both social democracy and Keynesianism, which she held responsible for the decline of Britain, militarily, economically and even morally. Her objective was to end the postwar consensus and look for a radically new type of politics (and economics).The other huge innovation she oversaw was an entirely new approach to communication in politics. Using a remarkably talented advertising agency, Saatchi and Saatchi, she and the Conservative party ran devastating campaigns against her opponents. The most famous was focused on a poster of a queue of people in front of a banner marked ‘Unemployment Office' and with the legend ‘Labour isn't working'.As well as her powerful and effective campaigning, Labour was brought low by a series of errors made by Callaghan, many of which played into her hands. It was just possible that he might have won an election in 1978, or at least done less badly, but he lacked the foresight to call it (a mistake he later acknowledged). That meant that he went through the season of strikes that came to be known as the ‘Winter of Discontent' and, instead of choosing the timing of the election himself, was forced to call one when Thatcher brought in a no confidence motion in the Commons, carried by just one vote.The subsequent election, on 3 May 1979, saw the Conservatives win a solid majority of 43. Margaret Thatcher became Britain's first woman Prime Minister. And, as we'll start to see next week, launched herself on a programme of radical change.Illustration: Rubbish piling up in the streets as a result of the municipal workers' strike of the during the 'Winter of Discontent'.

Another poll. Another rush of fevered opinion, and yet still so far away from an election. The poll business is booming. Once upon a time we had just the two TV networks in the game, but now they've been joined by others. Keeping the opinion writers in business and politics as the leading news driver in this country. So this one was paid for by the Taxpayers Union and it breathlessly reports that New Zealand First is on the rise and is now the third most popular party. Winston may be 80, but it looks like he's here to stay. And the two major parties are pretty equal at 30 odd each - there is no dominant party right now in New Zealand. Other than that, the other take away is that we don't like the leaders of the major parities. Both leaders have popularity rankings less than 20%, and that's because they're both demonstrably a bit average. That's particularly concerning for National and the Prime Minister, who learned that 80% of New Zealanders don't rate him as PM. It reflects a deep dis-ease about where the country finds itself. In a week where we found that we grew not one jot in the last financial quarter, people are wondering why we've got so stuck in the mire. National's easy answer at the last election was that Labour was useless. But 18 months into National's governance I feel people are still wondering where we're going and whether, maybe, they're a bit useless too. I blame politics and the urge to politicise every issue and polarise the voters. Our current default position from our politicians is the other side is crap. Vote for us. But the country is saying you're both crap. There is no truth teller out there leading the way through the murk. And in this vacuum of leadership Winston shines by just doing the basics as a Foreign Minister well and not being useless. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this short, 7-minute episode, Jamie gets real about how top performers often feel a quiet discontent while at work, impacting both them and the organizations they work with. Top performers are wired to hit the gas pedal, so busy achieving that they don't often take time to reflect on their dreams or acknowledge them. Each of us is wonderfully and uniquely made with a God-given purpose. When we can't connect our work to that purpose, discontent grows until it boils over. Jamie shares 3 steps you can take to find clarity and make your work epic, benefitting both you and the organization you work with. In this episode, Jamie refers to the following work: The “I GOT THIS Framework” for identifying your purpose and setting goals Find your Why: A Practical Guide for Discovering Purpose for You and Your Team by Simon Sinek Executive Access is produced by The Ideal Life, a platform that provides coaching, community, and content for people to grow both personally and professionally.

Tech leaders promise that AI automation will usher in an age of unprecedented abundance: cheap goods, universal high income, and freedom from the drudgery of work. But even if AI delivers material prosperity, will that prosperity be shared? And what happens to human dignity if our labor and contributions become obsolete?Political philosopher Michael Sandel joins Tristan Harris to explore why the promise of AI-driven abundance could deepen inequalities and leave our society hollow. Drawing from his landmark work on justice and merit, Sandel argues that this isn't just about economics — it's about what it means to be human when our work role in society vanishes, and whether democracy can survive if productivity becomes our only goal.We've seen this story before with globalization: promises of shared prosperity that instead hollowed out the industrial heart of communities, economic inequalities, and left holes in the social fabric.

Feeling discontent with life? Overwhelmed? Exhausted? Less-than? There are typically three culprits to blame: clutter, comparison, and conflict. Their impact, individually or collectively, can bog you down. Luckily, you're in control. In this podcast episode, Darlene Brock and Julie Bender unpack the burden that the three Cs—clutter, comparison, and conflict—can drain our contentment with each area of our lives: our jobs, families, home, appearance, spirituality, and more. If we don't keep them in check, we'll never be satisfied. Tune in to learn practical strategies for managing the three Cs and reclaim your peace. Quote of the episode: “Yet true godliness with contentment is itself great wealth. After all, we brought nothing with us when we came into the world, and we can't take anything with us when we leave it. So if we have enough food and clothing, let us be content” (1 Timothy 6:6-8).

The 1990s were a heady time. The Cold War had ended, and America's version of liberal capitalism seemed triumphant. And yet, amid the peace and prosperity, anxieties about the project of self-government could be glimpsed beneath the surface. So argued Michael Sandel, in his influential and widely debated book Democracy's Discontent, published in 1996. Now, a quarter century later, Sandel updates his classic work for an age when democracy's discontent has hardened into a country divided against itself.rnrnIn Democracy's Discontent: A New Edition for Our Perilous Times, Sandel extends his account of America's civic struggles from the 1990s to the present. The book is an essential--and ultimately hopeful--reading for all those who wonder if our democratic experiment will survive in the twenty-first century.rnrnMichael Sandel teaches political philosophy at Harvard University, where his legendary course "Justice: Ethical Reasoning in Polarized Times," fills Harvard's largest auditorium. Sandel is also the author of The Tyranny of Merit: Can We Find the Common Good?, which seeks a way beyond the polarized politics of our time. His other previous books include Justice: What's the Right Thing to Do? and What Money Can't Buy: The Moral Limits of Markets.

A historic shift occurred in the early 20th century when the West completely suspended any concept of reality or meaning. We adopted a new religion whose core belief was that it WASN'T a religion—agnostic liberalism that declared thousands of years of human struggle for glory and meaning "unnecessary." This tyranny greater than Rome or the Catholic Church dominates every moment of our lives while remaining invisible, creating our current "age of platitudes."

POTUS: SKINNY BUDGET AND DISCONTENT. . RICHARD EPSTEIN, CIVITAS INSTITUTE 1861 NOT PREPARED
Are we looking at a spring of discontent? It's the final push ahead of this week's local elections, and what Keir Starmer wants to talk about is expanding the NHS app – which he says will cut waiting lists and end the days of the health service living in the ‘dark ages'. However, what people are actually talking about is public sector pay. The independent pay review body has recommended pay rises of around 4 per cent for teachers and nurses. Will there be industrial action? Are Labour going to be pushed into another round of public sector pay increases? Meanwhile, after Ben Houchen's comments this weekend, the murmurs of a Tory/Reform pact refuse to go away. Was his a helpful intervention? Lucy Dunn speaks to James Heale and Isabel Hardman. Produced by Oscar Edmondson.

With reports of ‘billions' of spending cuts earmarked for the Chancellor's Spring Statement, taking place later this month, Michael Gove and Kate Andrews join Katy Balls to discuss what exactly Rachel Reeves could cut. With little fiscal headroom and sluggish forecasts of growth, Reeves doesn't appear to have many options. It's likely that welfare will be targeted, and there are reports that Labour's opposition to new North Sea oil & gas licences may be relaxed to stimulate growth. One area that appears off the table is defence – following the Prime Minister's pledge to cut international aid in order to fund new defence spending. But if all these reports are true, where does that leave Labour ideologically? Could Labour's left be heading for what Michael calls their own ‘winter of discontent'? And what appetite does a weary British public have for further spending cuts? Produced by Patrick Gibbons.
