Schuyler had two rules for raising babies: no diapers, and no staying home.In this episode, Jeff explains how letting his daughters toddle around bare-bottomed sped up potty-training, and how refusing to curb their social life meant babies at yoga retreats, dinner parties, and late nights with friends. Both strategies mostly worked, until they crossed paths one night at a party in Clinton Hill. John Currin's Hermès loafer never stood a chance. This is the fourth episode of Diaries of a Dance Dad, an audio memoir series in Jeff's own words. It spans the full arc of parenthood: the inhale of birth and early chaos, the grind of no sleep and travel with kids, the gut-punches of failure, and the slow exhale of letting go.

As of Friday, Texas Republicans have reclassified a range of popular hemp-derived THC products like Delta-8 as Schedule I substances - possession of them is now a felony. Driven by millions in campaign contributions, the wholesale alcohol lobby has persuaded Republican leaders to eliminate hemp competition and protect their state-sanctioned distribution monopoly. Listeners can fight back by bypassing major distributors, and buying directly from local independent taprooms, distilleries, and self-distributing craft producers.KHOU Houston: https://www.khou.com/article/news/local/thc-restrictions-hemp-businesses/285-3fe2342e-5ba7-4fb0-997d-915430e8fc96Progress Texas: https://www.instagram.com/reel/DbgND1Lpuza/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link&igsh=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==This election year, you can support the real free press by investing in pro-democracy, pro-justice, pro-gressive storytelling.

What does “affordability” mean, and who should we trust to deliver it? Democrats are pounding the affordability message hard, saying President Trump began a global tariff war and a war in Iran that have both pushed prices up for Americans. We'll talk about what actual ideas Democrats are offering to bring relief. The boldest ideas so far have come from their more progressive members, which could be a potential challenge for the more moderate wing of the party. Republicans have their own challenge: GOP lawmakers seem willing to work on bipartisan solutions on affordability, but President Trump keeps undermining them.Mo and Sarah have their own policy debate to stump for proposals that can bring prices down, and also pick each other's ideas apart.Plus, Dr. Anthony Fauci refused to answer questions about Covid in a congressional hearing, and we talk about whether he was justified.Producer: Leo DuranHost: David Greene Guests: Mo Elleithee, executive director at Georgetown University's Institute of Politics and Public Service - @MoElleithee Sarah Isgur, senior editor at The Dispatch - @whignewtons

On this episode of The Karol Markowicz Show, Karol sits down with John McCormick, senior editor at The Dispatch, for a thoughtful conversation on journalism, politics, media, history, and the values that matter most. John reflects on his path from conservative college columnist to reporting for National Review, The Weekly Standard, and The Dispatch. He shares why political debate has become less productive, how social media has changed public discourse, and why he still believes respectful disagreements are essential to a healthy democracy. The conversation also explores the future of American politics, the importance of history, balancing career ambitions with family life, and why faith and family remain the foundation of a meaningful life.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Despite reports from social media influencers, as of this morning, the Ken Paxton campaign has still not accepted times or terms for a debate with James Talarico. Texas has joined 11 other Republican-controlled states in a SCOTUS appeal for them to allow Donald Trump to place harsh new limits on mail-in voting. John Cornyn has helped stymie the confirmation of Todd Blanche, Trump's choice for U.S. Attorney General. A sweeping new ban on hemp products will take effect across Texas tomorrow. And, the Texas Tribune is strangely celebrating a new potential milestone for Republican women to be elected to Congress - representing a party that has done immense harm to American women in recent years.USA Today: https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/politics/elections/2026/07/29/texas-senate-debates-take-shape-as-talarico-paxton-trade-positions/91088811007/WFAA: https://www.wfaa.com/article/news/local/dates-times-announced-debate-paxton-talarico/287-3f31b225-e83a-4f1b-9276-e09223ae1d09MS Now: https://www.ms.now/the-last-word/watch/texans-deserve-answers-about-ken-paxton-dem-senate-nominee-james-talarico-says-demanding-debates-2508970051676Democracy Docket: https://www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/gop-states-join-doj-in-asking-supreme-court-to-let-trump-block-some-mail-ballots/The Hill: https://thehill.com/newsletters/morning-report/5998751-todd-blanche-confirmation-delay-cornyn-tillis-gop-scorn/CNBC: https://www.cnbc.com/2026/07/29/todd-blanche-attorney-general-trump-irs-audit-cornyn.htmlAustin Chronicle: https://www.austinchronicle.com/news/where-the-texas-hemp-market-currently-stands/KERA: https://www.keranews.org/texas-news/2026-07-30/thc-businesses?_amp=trueTexas Tribune: https://www.texastribune.org/2026/07/30/texas-republican-women-congress-house-record-steinmann-mealer-2026/This election year, you can support the real free press by investing in pro-democracy, pro-justice, pro-gressive storytelling.

Join Jonah and Ken as they discuss pain thresholds, public opinion inside Iran, the fallout of Ayatollah Ali Khamenei's death, the ideology of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, Persian nationalism, the original sins of the war, the politics behind the scenes, civil-war spillover, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, oil, exit strategies, and end games.

New polling has Democrat James Talarico ahead of Republican Ken Paxton in the race for the U.S. Senate by five percentage points, and shows Talarico performing well among independent and moderate voters. Renewable energy has been pulling Texas' fat out of the fire this summer - but will that continue under the strain of hundreds of data centers?

Before the girls hit menarche, they trailed rainbow sorbet, tie-dye, and enough Pirate's Booty to leave a breadcrumb trail across every airport in North America. In this episode, Jeff remembers the summers his family spent touring with the Wanderlust yoga festivals: one squeaky roller bag, three dozen Trader Joe's totes, and three young daughters who could double as walking coat racks. Pirate's Booty wasn't just a snack; it was how the ops team always managed to track him down. The story lands at a Vancouver airport ticket counter, where the "yogul" of Wanderlust finally, and very publicly, loses his equanimity. This is the 7th episode of Diaries of a Dance Dad, an audio memoir series in Jeff's own words. It spans the full arc of parenthood: the inhale of birth and early chaos, the grind of no sleep and travel with kids, the gut-punches of failure, and the slow exhale of letting go.

Here at The Remnant, our hate list is rather long: Woodrow Wilson, electoral primaries, German romanticism … the list goes on and on. But if there's one we hate that doesn't get enough air time, it's Chinese communism. We hate Chinese communism. That's why we've recruited from the ranks of America's foremost anti-CCP institution—that's the American Enterprise Institute, for those of you who live under rocks—to bring you the latest on Chinese grand strategy. AEI's Audrye Wong joins Jonah Goldberg to discuss Beijing's international investment, Chinese diaspora, influence operations, Taiwan, bribery, Chinese culture, American investment in Asia, Orbán's Hungary, Russia-China relations, democracy, Han supremacy, and how Americans should think about countering the threat across the Pacific.

The Texas Water Development Board doesn't have enough information about data center demand to include it in our resource projections, and they seem okay with that. A new college admissions test that emphasizes ideology over academics is approved for Texas' public universities. South Texas appears primed for a seismic shift away from Trump and the GOP, while Democratic nominee Bobby Pulido's chances to unseat his Republican opponent appear strong. And, James Talarico has officially "arrived" as Donald Trump includes him in his list of national enemies.Community Impact: https://communityimpact.com/central-austin/texas-legislature/texas-includes-minimal-data-center-info-in-state-water-plan-citing-limited-data/Texas Tribune: https://www.texastribune.org/2026/07/27/conservative-college-entrance-exam-texas-universty-admissions/Newsweek: https://www.newsweek.com/the-texas-counties-that-could-decide-whether-democrats-flip-senate-seat-12223307Texas Observer: https://www.texasobserver.org/bobby-pulido-monica-de-la-cruz-south-texas/Dallas Morning News: https://www.dallasnews.com/news/politics/article/trump-jabs-james-talarico-at-correspondents-dinner-22360074.phpThis election year, you can support the real free press by investing in pro-democracy, pro-justice, pro-gressive storytelling.

For years, people have asked the same question: Where were the teachers the Plymouth Brethren Christian Church hired? Issue No. 11 of Lady Whistleblown's Brethren Dispatch explores why so many remained silent. Through documents, correspondence, and the voices of teachers themselves, this issue uncovers the deception, fear, and emotional burden that kept many from speaking out and why the truth is only now beginning to emerge.Many OneSchool Global teachers witnessed far more than anyone realized, yet believed their contracts bound them to silence. As more teachers see what is being exposed, they are finding the courage to come forward, report their concerns to the authorities, and demand meaningful change.#PBCC #PlymouthBrethrenChristianChurch #ExclusiveBrethren #RapidReliefTeam #BruceHales #oneschoolglobal

First mate Steve Hayes strides across the deck, grinning maniacally at the cowering crew. “Mine” he crows to himself. “Mine! The HMS Remnant is finally mine! Muahahaha!” The crew, downcast, is near despair. Then suddenly, all eyes turn to the gangplank. Haggard, sunburned, stricken, and emaciated, Jonah Goldberg stumbles onto the deck, takes Hayes by the collar, and gasps, “Sand. Nothing but sand.” After recovering down below, Captain Goldberg is back at the helm and ready to dive into the Grand Canyon, advertising, Vegas, Christopher Nolan's Odyssey, the Christianization thesis, black Helen, DSA, voter turnout, the stupidity of abolishing the Senate, “unfettered capitalism,” Hayek v. Friedman, conservative liberal or liberal conservative, Teddy Roosevelt, and postliberal collapse.

Progressive Democrats are surging in primary elections across the country, but the party establishment is worried they'll lose this November. Republicans think those progressives will be easier to beat, too.So how will this intra-party fight among Democrats play out and determine control of Congress? And why is the GOP so sure they can beat progressive Dems when some polls show their party is underwater with voters on the economy?Plus, the president campaigned to secure elections using false claims. House Republicans advanced his elections bill – the SAVE America Act – just as two election deniers advanced in Arizona's Republican primaries.And we talk about the Iran war. Republicans passed extra military spending to keep it going, so do those Republicans now own an unpopular war?Producer: Leo DuranHost: Susan Davis Guests: Mo Elleithee, executive director at Georgetown University's Institute of Politics and Public Service - @MoElleithee Sarah Isgur, senior editor at The Dispatch - @whignewtons

The essay ran in The Dispatch. Then a few hundred readers wrote back, and a few of them changed my mind. There is such a thing as Trump Derangement Syndrome. It just isn't what most people mean when they say it. This one goes behind the essay: the passages that got cut, the third man who never made it into the print version, and the comment section that turned out to be the best part of the whole thing.

Governor Greg Abbott has pivoted his campaign rhetoric to a call for limits on data centers - but he fails to use the power he has right now to do anything to slow their explosive spread.

Send us Fan MailYour body can hit full panic speeds while your brain has to make courtroom-clean decisions. That tension sits at the center of my conversation with Eric Robinson, a former pastor turned FBI agent who spent 24 years in the Bureau and served on SWAT. We get real about what it means to approach a door knowing you might meet violence, and why true calm is not bravado, it is competence built through training, repetition, and trust in your teammates.Eric walks us through a deadly force encounter that includes the grim reality of suicide by cop, the adrenaline surge that can slam your heart rate into the 170s, and the strange way time can feel stretched while everything happens fast. We talk about the “fog” that can follow, the mental replay that steals sleep, and why the what if loop feels so sticky even when the shoot is justified. If you work in policing, fire, EMS, dispatch, corrections, or any high-risk role, you'll recognize the mix of duty, humanity, and aftermath.We also dig into what actually supports first responder mental health after critical incidents: solid leadership, a smart after-action review, optional support that people can choose, and a team culture that stays close instead of ostracizing shooters out of legal fear. Along the way we hit the odd corners of FBI work, interagency cooperation, and the dark humor that helps people survive what the public never sees. Eric also shares his “why” and previews his memoir, Irreverend: From Saving Souls to Chasing Sinners in the FBI.If this conversation helps you, share it with someone on your shift, then subscribe and leave a review so more first responders can find it. What part of the job do you wish more people understood?Please reach Eric through his website at http://www.preachertobreacher.comDeemedFit: First Responder OwnedWe are a first responder owned company looking to get first responders in the best mental shape.Disclaimer: This post contains affiliate links.

On his 25th wedding anniversary, Jeff tucks his daughter Micah into bed and tells her a fairy tale — except this one is true. It's the story of how he met her mother. In this episode, that story unfolds: a freshman art history class in 1988, a late entrance, a grapefruit, and instant infatuation. Jeff traces 25 years of courtship, marriage, and three daughters through fable, wit, and unvarnished tenderness, closing on a wish Micah won't fully understand until she's older. This is the fourth episode of Diaries of a Dance Dad, an audio memoir series in Jeff's own words. It spans the full arc of parenthood: the inhale of birth and early chaos, the grind of no sleep and travel with kids, the gut-punches of failure, and the slow exhale of letting go.

Jonah Goldberg has been chewing over how to reduce the number of gray hairs in Congress for some time now. Unfortunately, the best that he and The Remnant team have come up with is shaving the heads of all the senior senators, which, seeming somewhat impractical, led Jonah to call in an expert. Science correspondent and longtime friend of the show Ronald Bailey joins the merry band today to set us all straight on RFK Jr., vaccines, MAHA, DOGE, libertarianism, bad analogies for government, transhumanism, gerontocracy, term limits, libertarian Shangri-La, Francis Fukuyama, institutions, economic growth, Thomas Jefferson, invention, and Benjamin Franklin. Show Notes: —Bailey's book - The End of Doom: Environmental Renewal in the Twenty-first Century —Bailey's book - Liberation Biology: The Scientific And Moral Case For The Biotech Revolution —Bailey in Reason - “Can America Get Out of the Gerontocracy Trap?” —Jonah's book - Suicide of the West —Terrible Rest Is History podcast on Jefferson —Michael Auslin Remnant The Remnant is a production of The Dispatch, a digital media company covering politics, policy, and culture from a nonpartisan perspective.

The Arctic serves as the world's refrigerator, keeping the planet cool. But temperatures in the Arctic are rising nearly four times faster than the rest of the world and its sea ice is near a historic low. We put out a call to scientists aboard research vessels currently sailing in the Arctic Ocean, and two answered “aye.” Hear our ship-to-shore conversations with them about how warmer temperatures affect life on land and sea. Plus, a biologist who recently returned from the field describes how he inadvertently stumbled upon surprising data during his decades-long study of polar bears. Guests: Autun Purser – Marine biologist at the Alfred- Wegener Institute and the current Chief Scientist on the Arctic research vessel, the Polarstern Andrew Derocher – Zoologist at the University of Alberta in Canada who is leading a decades-long study on polar bears of the West Hudson Bay region, in the high Canadian North Jonathan Nash – Oceanographer, Oregon State University, and member of the GIANT team sailing near Greenland aboard the RRS Sir David Attenborough Descripción en español Big Picture Science is part of the Airwave Media podcast network.

Senator Mitch McConnell was absent from Capitol Hill for weeks. Rumors and conspiracies swirled until he recently reappeared and said he was in medical care recovering from a fall.He's not the only politician who's hid their health from the public eye – Joe Biden, for instance, tried to keep concerns about his health quiet before the 2024 election – until it was too hard to ignore.We talk about what aging and ailing lawmakers owe to the public especially if it impairs their ability to serve.Plus, immigration enforcement is surging. ICE doubled the number of arrests compared to earlier this year, and has been doing it without the massive protests that rocked the country. But now, with two headline-grabbing shootings of motorists by ICE agents, what is the future of that strategy?We also talk about how congress came together on a massive affordable housing bill.Producer: Leo DuranHost: Mike Madrid Guests: Liz Bruenig, staff writer at The Atlantic - @EBruenig Sarah Isgur, senior editor at The Dispatch - @whignewtons

Longtime listeners of The Remnant know well Jonah Goldberg's hatred of the extremist, oligarchic, necromantic political conclaves holding our nation hostage, otherwise known as primaries. Nonetheless, listeners are left with many questions unanswered: How did populists seize the GOP in 2016? What should replace primaries for candidate selection? What will go down in 2028? Will Yuval Levin be on the ticket? Here to put an end to all speculation is political scientist Seth Masket, who joins Jonah to talk about the Tea Party, Donald Trump's charisma, Bill Clinton as a precursor to Trump, primaries, county-scale politics, party leadership, democratization, conventions, Trump's influence over 2028, the next GOP presidential candidate, J.D. Vance, Richard Nixon, and Ronald Reagan's 11th commandment.
