Host William Hudson is joined by Professor Andrea McDonnell, Associate Professor of Political Science and Director of PC's Communication Program to discuss her new research. Dr. McDonnell has been a guest on this podcast previously to discuss the decline of local news and her 2023 book A Gossip Politic. In today's podcast she discusses her more recent work on what she calls "discursive self-cleaving," a rhetorical strategy celebrities employ to counter accusations of sexual misconduct. In a forthcoming book, she takes an in depth look at the way three celebrities have deployed this strategy to protect themselves from such accusations. Among the three is former president Donald Trump, a master of discursive self-cleaving, who will be the focus of our conversation. Our conversation shows how various developments in communications in the 21st century, a post-truth information eco-system, bullshitting, and public gaslighting, have enabled this strategy. We conclude with comments on how Trump has expanded discursive self-cleaving from being a response to allegations of sexual misconduct to a routine tool in campaign image making.

Another discursive and chaotic marathon of academic discourse with the Doc and an anonymous guest who requested to remain mostly as an occasional interactive listener . We invited a personal friend of Mark - Palestinian American Muslim mom, Rashy, who is incidentally also a student of O'Mara's lives. Recorded on Sunday, March 24th during the holy month of Ramadan, the Jewish holiday of Purim and Palm Sunday, 3 holidays of the 3 Abrahamic faiths. We didn't cover nearly the amount of territory as we intended, so this was more of an unstructured approach to the topic that leads us down some detours in sociology, human psychology, and personal experiences.

This episode features our conversation with Dr. Cynthia A. Tananis. Dr. Tananis has been an educator for more than 40 years, serving as a public school teacher and in a variety of administrative positions.  Prior to her retirement in 2020, she served as an Associate Professor in Education Leadership at the University of Pittsburgh for 25 years.  At the University of Pittsburgh, she founded and served as the executive director of the Collaborative for Evaluation and Assessment Capacity (CEAC), a School of Education initiative that provides program evaluation services for schools and educational programs.  Now in its 22nd year, CEAC continues to offer those services. Dr. Tananis has served in leadership positions in the American Evaluation Association and the Eastern Evaluation Research Society. Throughout her career, she has practiced, studied, and taught educational evaluation. In this conversation, we explore evolving conceptions of evaluation from its early roots in educational research with its emphasis on measurement toward a discursive form of evaluation that provides in-depth information to support decision-making and program improvement.

Emily and Eric welcome Black Catholic podcasters Nate Tinner-Williams and Lorna DesRoses to Meet Father Rivers to celebrate Black Catholic History Month (November) with the first-ever Rivers Reading Club. Participants discuss one of Fr. Rivers' most provocative and insightful pieces of writing: a chapter called “The Oral African Tradition Versus the Ocular Western Tradition.” The chapter is available as a free download, compliments of Orbis Books (see Show Notes for the link). We discuss Fr. Rivers' critique of the unexamined cultural forces that cause liturgy in North America to limp: the sight-biased and discursive tendencies of Western European-descended cultures. Hosts and guests share their thoughts on Rivers' ideas in our liturgical current context and discuss whether progress has been made since Rivers first published the piece.

Experimental Unit Episode 3: Operational Concept: Discursive Blindspot of Internal Conflict by Adam Wadley

At the recent 2022 Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC), right-wing movement leaders couldn't stop whining about “pronouns.” For example, Texas Senator Ted Cruz said that his preferred pronouns are “kiss my ass,” and former Trump official Matt Schlapp complained that instead of carrying out his “duties” like dealing with the “open border,” President Biden is “talking about pronouns.” However, 2022 was not the first CPAC in which this particular part of speech caught heat; back in 2019, Fox News contributor Michelle Malkin began her remarks, “my pronouns are ‘U-S-A'!”Why do some conservatives attack and mock “pronouns”, and what exactly do they mean when they use the term? As our entry in the Big Rhetorical 2022 Podcast Carnival on “Spaces and Place In and Beyond the Academy”, this episode unpacks the history and politics of gendered personal pronouns such as “he” and “she,” genderless and non-binary pronouns (e.g. “they”), and various discourse practices in academic and activist circles that relate to personal pronoun usage. After analyzing some recent and relevant policy documents, Alex and Calvin explain the epistemic and ideological bases for “pronouns” as a negative ideograph–a one-word slogan encapsulating everything scary and “un-American” about the increasing tolerance of LGBTQ+ people in public life. “Pronouns,” we find, doesn't only index a debate over present-day gender expression; it also draws from the legacies of settler-colonialism and hyper-nationalism, which have always co-constituted hierarchies of race, class, gender, and sexuality in US society. However, we also note the ironic fact that strict use of gendered pronouns such as “he” and “she,” especially to refer to a generic person or non-human objects and entities, is historically recent and linguistically arbitrary.We conclude by shifting from history and theory to a question of action: what is the pragmatic case for putting your preferred pronouns in your social media bios and email signature lines, and giving students the opportunity to “share your name and pronouns” in classroom introductions? How do these practices make everyday learning and social action more feasible and manageable? We break down some practical benefits for teaching, political organizing, and ordinary personal interaction.Overall, we hope this episode helps demystify and defang the issue of “pronouns”, which are really not as confusing or threatening as some make them out to be. From Connecticut to Utah, in academia and beyond, we all use them, and they haven't caused the sky to fall (so far!).Works and Concepts ReferencedAllen, J. M., & Faigley, L. (1995).

In a recent video on the Pints with Aquinas channel, Gregory Pine, O.P. voiced his concern that mass entertainment, particularly music and movies, is often an obstacle to achieving the heavenly end of contemplation for which we are made. What is noteworthy is that unlike the typical Catholic commentary on pop culture, Fr. Pine does not focus so much on the moral content of music and movies as how their very form affects us bodily, psychologically and spiritually. In this discussion inspired by Fr. Pine's points, host Thomas Mirus and filmmaker Nathan Douglas specify some elements of music and film which are obstacles to the contemplative life, but also suggest how, rather than simply eschewing music and movies, we can engage with better art in a deeper way which serves the contemplative end of man.

Teemu Taira's book Taking ‘Religion' Seriously: Essays on the Discursive Study of Religion (Brill, 2022) demonstrates through methodological reflections and carefully chosen case studies a new way to conduct the study of religion. It focuses on how social actors negotiate what counts as “religion” and how discourses on religion are part of how contemporary societies organize themselves. It draws on examples from judicial processes, media discourses, and scholarly debates related to Wiccans, Druids, and Jedi knights, among others. By analyzing discourses on religion and building on, rather than rejecting, genealogical critiques of religion, Taira argues that the study of religion can be constructive and socially relevant.

In this episode with Professor Stine Grodal, we explored the promises and challenges of archival research. We discussed Stine's use of archival methods in contexts such as nanotechnologies or the tobacco or hearing aid industry. Stine reflects on the kinds of research questions best addressed with archival data and provides specific sampling and analytical strategies researchers can take to approach archival datasets. She also shares advice on where to look for archival data, how to start, when to combine archival research with other research methods, and the benefits of being creative in our methodological approach.Stine Grodal is Distinguished Professor at Northeastern University D'Amore-McKim School of Business in the department of Entrepreneurship and Innovation. She received her PhD from Stanford University in Management Science and Engineering. Stine examines the emergence of categories in nascent markets and the strategic actions market participants take to create and exploit these emerging social structures.

The testimonies of the victims and survivors of nuclear weapons prompt us to imagine the unimaginable, think the unthinkable and give voice to the unspeakable suffering caused by atomic bombs. Marking 75 years this week since the bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, Magnus Løvold, Policy Adviser in the Arms Unit of the ICRC's Legal Division, calls on us to honor and remember the testimonies of survivors exposing nuclear weapons for what they really are: Nothing more – and nothing less – than horrific and unjustifiable tools of war that must be prohibited and eliminated.

Heck, I am unsure whether everything I am telling you here is one hundred percent because God is such a mystery and prayer reflects that mystery. Nevertheless, in order to develop prayer into a lifestyle, we have to explore it to get a deeper understanding of what we are dealing with. The type of prayer explored in this episode is discursive prayer, and it is the style of prayer that helps us to deal with our doubts surrounding God and reality. Check it out to learn more.
