#duke #dukebasketball #dukembb #dukefootball #mannydiaz #acc #cfbFriend of the pod Steve Wiseman stopped by to talk about his new book - Duke Men's Basketball: An Illustrated Timeline. I got a copy recently and read it over two days. This is a great history of Blue Devils basketball and I recommend it to everyone. As Steve explained it to me, it's essentially a coffee table book that anyone can pick up and thumb through. It has a lot of interesting nuggets and facts that fans will love including some fascinating recruiting battles.In addition to talking basketball, me and Steve share our thoughts on what Manny Diaz & Co. are doing in Durham. We discuss his legacy and where he compares to other Duke head coaches. While it's too early to get into this, if Coach Diaz can keep Duke rolling, he could end up as one of the greatest coaches in program history.Please call the pod (540-632-0160), leave a message and you'll get in an episode.Let me know what you think about what we think in the comments, on Mastodon, on Reddit, on Instagram, or on Bluesky.As always, Go Duke!

After a detour through Reacher and its spin-off Neagley, Lee brings in an Alabama senator warning that airline pilots may secretly be furries, and Simon questions the maths.

What are you celebrating today?Is there a story that will help listeners understand why you are doing what you do?Questions/Topics/PromptsI was born in 1963, which technically makes me a boomer. My wife was born in 1965, which makes her Gen X, and I tease her endlessly about this difference. The point is, the generations are not cut and dry. Before we wade into generational differences, what do we need to keep in mind?Is the acceleration of technology creating more compressed generations?[I think what will make this episode stand out is looking at the generational and hierarchical differences from multiple perspectives] Schools are filled with multiple generations. The most recent generations comprise the student population, but when we think about teachers, building administrators, and district leadership, generational “hierarchies” can quickly break down, so it's not just boomers supervising millennials, the reverse can also be happening. I'm not sure what the best way is to approach this, but let's dig in…Sponsor Spot 2:I want to thank IXL for sponsoring this podcast…Everyone talks about the power of data-driven instruction.

In August, the Toronto real estate market looked like it was finally tightening up, but as we look at the preliminary September numbers, I have to admit: I spoke too soon. Sales have dropped nearly 30% compared to last year, and inventory is lingering on the market longer than expected.Let's look into the September reality check for the GTA housing market (Toronto, York, Peel, and Durham). We look beyond the surface-level average price of $1 million to answer a crucial question: With the market slowing down, who is actually buying homes right now?Using new data from Teranet, we break down the surprising buyer demographics—including why first-time home buyers now make up 36.5% of non-condo purchases, while move-up buyers are largely staying on the sidelines. Whether you are a first-time buyer looking for an opportunity, or a seller trying to understand your competition, here is exactly what you need to know about this fall market shift.Schedule a 15-minute appointment to chat with me here:https://www.broadviewavenue.ca/appointments▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬Subscribe now to keep updated for more information.If you want to chat with us, do the following: 1.

This Sunday, Grow Pastor Drew Humphrey concluded our His Hand sermon series with a message from Acts 16 on God's providence in where and when He places us. Drew reminded us that God often directs us to certain places to minister to certain people in ordinary moments, difficult relationships, and even seemingly hopeless situations, all for the purposes of His sovereign plan.

QUOTES FOR REFLECTION “If you…know what you have to do and you do not do it, then you are worse off than before.”~Confucious, 5th century B.C. Chinese philosopher “Guilt is cancer. Guilt will confine you, torture you, destroy you as an artist…. It's a thief.”~Dave Grohl, musician and songwriter; founder of the Foo Fighters “Guilt: the gift that keeps on giving.”~Erma Bombeck (1927-1996), humorist and syndicated columnist “…for those who are in Christ Jesus…there is no divine condemnation, since the condemnation they deserve has already been fully borne for them by [Christ].”~C.E.B. Cranfield (1915-2015), scholar and professor at the University of Durham “It's funny how some distance makes everything seem smallAnd the fears that once controlled me can't get to me at allIt's time to see what I can do, To test the limits and break throughNo right, no wrong, no rules for me. I'm free.Let it go, let it go…”~Elsa in the movie Frozen “Freedom is not so much a birthright, as it is an achievement. We are born with freedom of choice, but the way we use our choices makes us slaves or free men.”~Bishop Fulton J. Sheen (1895-1979), Roman Catholic prelate, bishop and media personality “The truth will set you free. But not until it is finished with you.”~David Foster Wallace (1962-2008), writer and academic, in Infinite Jest “No strength of nature can suffice, To serve the Lord aright:And what she has she misapplies, For want of clearer light. “How long beneath the Law I lay, In bondage and distress;I toiled the precept to obey, But toiled without success. “To see the law by Christ fulfilled, And hear His pardoning voice,Changes a slave into a child, And duty into choice.”~William Cowper (1731-1800), famed poet and hymnwriterSERMON PASSAGE Romans 8:1-4 (NASB95)Romans 8 1 Therefore there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus. 2 For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has set you free from the law of sin and of death. 3 For what the Law could not do, weak as it was through the flesh, God did: sending His own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh and as an offering for sin, He condemned sin in the flesh, 4 so that the requirement of the Law might be fulfilled in us, who do not walk according to the flesh but according to the Spirit. Romans 5 1 Therefore, having been justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ…. 18 So then as through one transgression there resulted condemnation to all men, even so through one act of righteousness there resulted justification of life to all men. 19 For as through the one man's disobedience the many were made sinners, even so through the obedience of the One the many will be made righteous. 20 The Law came in so that the transgression would increase; but where sin increased, grace abounded all the more, 21 so that, as sin reigned in death, even so grace would reign through righteousness to eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord. Romans 6 5 For if we have become united with [Christ] in the likeness of His death, certainly we shall also be in the likeness of His resurrection, 6 knowing this, that our old self was crucified with Him, in order that our body of sin might be done away with, so that we would no longer be slaves to sin; 7 for he who has died is freed [i.e., justified; declared righteous] from sin. Romans 7 4 Therefore, my brethren, you also were made to die to the Law through the body of Christ, so that you might be joined to another, to Him who was raised from the dead, in order that we might bear fruit for God. Deuteronomy 30 6 Moreover the Lord your God will circumcise your heart and the heart of your descendants, to love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul, so that you may live. Ezekiel 36 26 Moreover, I will give you a new heart and put a new spirit within you; and I will remove the heart of stone from your flesh and give you a heart of flesh. 27 I will put My Spirit within you and cause you to walk in My statutes, and you will be careful to observe My ordinances. 1 John 4 10 In this is love, not that we loved God, but that He loved us and sent His Son to be the propitiation for our sins…. 19 We love, because He first loved us.

What is the impact of the Durham breast cancer scandal on the women affected? It's been announced that 4,500 patients will have their medical records reviewed. There has been a range of issues including some women who had unnecessary mastectomies. Health correspondent Sharon Barbour and Denise Howarth from the Pink Justice Campaign join Anita Rani to discuss. ‘Donate to charity shops as if you're giving to a friend' - that was the advice from author Tansy Hoskins when she joined us on the programme earlier this month. But what can you do with those items in your home that aren't in good enough condition for a charity shop? From worn-out socks to knickers where the elastic has gone, Laura de Barra, author of Garment Goddess, and Anna Turns, senior environment editor at The Conversation, share what we can do with these items.The leading Dutch dictionary, Dikke van Dale, is adding a new word for the labia to its online edition. Alongside the traditional term schaamlippen, which translates as "shame lips", it will now include vulvalippen or "vulva lips". Campaigners across Europe have spent years challenging language they say reinforces shame and stigma around women's bodies. So why do the words we use for female anatomy matter? Communication researcher Dr Beth Mallory and Shari Klein, co-founder of the Dutch campaign Schaamteloos, which pushed for the change, discuss.It has been 50 years since the groundbreaking play by Ntozake Shange, For Colored Girls Who Have Considered Suicide / When the Rainbow Is Enuf premiered on Broadway. Now, it has a major London run in a production directed by Diane Page for The Yard Theatre's reopening. Blending poetry, music, dance and storytelling, the play follows women, identified only by the colour they are wearing, as they share stories of love, loss, joy and trauma. Diane Page discusses this landmark in African American feminist theatre which celebrates black women's voices while exploring themes of identity, sisterhood and survival.Presented by Anita Rani Produced by Melanie Abbott

In February 1972, Bryce, Virginia and Bobby Durham were found murdered in their Boone, North Carolina, home during a heavy snowstorm. Within months, four men were charged and two were eventually indicted for murder, but the case against them collapsed. Nearly fifty years later, a story remembered by the son of a Georgia criminal led investigators to four entirely different men and an unexpected explanation for what happened that night.

This Sunday, Pastor John Durham continued our His Hand series with a message from Isaiah 46 on the sovereignty and providence of God. John reminded us that God is sovereign over every detail of our lives, from the smallest moments to the greatest events, and that He knows the future because He is the One who accomplishes it. Because nothing is outside His control, we can boldly approach His throne, remain confident in seasons of suffering, and trust that His purposes for us are ultimately for our holiness and His glory.

Welcome to Elemental Explorations, a podcast and practice following water, fire, earth, and air through the seasonal shifts of the equinoxes and solstices hosted by Bethany Carder of hAfhAAA and My Resonant Frequencies and Gina Wisotzky of Incandescent Tarot and Alchemag.Together, we move with the elements as living guides — through breath, sound, movement, image, myth, and deep listening. Gina brings the wisdom of tarot as an embodied and intuitive language, helping us listen to the symbols, archetypes, and relational patterns moving through the Fire Body. Bethany brings astronomical astrology and stellar somatics as a way of attuning to the living sky, the solar rhythm, and the body's relationship with Earth, season, and cosmos.Episode OverviewThis episode moves from dialogue into embodied integration, poetry, and a listening meditation on the Earth body.The integration practice begins with three minutes of alternate nostril breathing, followed by humming. A gentle laugh is gradually brought into the hum until it opens into ridiculous, full-bodied laughter. This sequence draws inspiration from teachings by Vickie Dodd and Laraaji, using breath, vibration, resonance and laughter to move energy through the body and prepare the field for deeper listening.From there, we move into poetry from Ursula K. Le Guin's Always Coming Home before entering a listening meditation on the Earth body.The meditation moves from beneath the Earth toward the surface and into the home:seismic activity → soil → tree → insects → birds → food preparation → voice → restWe begin with a sonification of seismic data from the September 27, 2014 eruption of Mount Ontake, Japan, a steam-driven eruption in which hydrothermal fluids moved upward through rock toward the surface. The meditation begins at the meeting place of the elements: water moving through rock, transformed through heat and pressure, and emerging through the Earth body.From there, we move through a contact-microphone recording within a compost heap and upward into a willow tree. Listening through the contact mic, we hear the fluid nature of the Earth body: the internal activity of the tree, water moving from roots toward leaves through xylem, sugars moving through phloem throughout the living tree, and wind moving through its body.The sound field opens outward into terrestrial life through crickets and cicadas, and then upward into birds.From there, we enter the home: spinach being sorted, food sizzling, water boiling for ramen, and the metallic rhythm of two forks separating noodles. Earth, water and fire meet through the ordinary act of preparing food while the outside world remains present through the open window.The meditation closes in the kitchen, singing with the crickets while cooking: voice, insects, food preparation and the surrounding environment sharing the same sonic field.The underlying noise floor is composed from field recordings gathered while meditating with the Earth body through the seasonal cycle between the June solstice and the September equinox. The approach to listening, recording and composition draws inspiration from the work of Hildegard Westerkamp and Annea Lockwood, including ideas from Westerkamp's Music, Sound and Conflict, and from practices of attentive environmental listening in which field recording becomes a form of relationship rather than simply the collection of environmental sound.CreditsAbram Morphew — piano; sonification of seismic data from Mount Ontake, September 27, 2014; production and mastering.Gina Wisotzky — field recordings of crickets, cicadas and birds; sorting spinach and cooking sounds; recording in Durham, North Carolina.Bethany Carder — field recordings of crickets and cicadas; cooking, boiling water and metal utensil recordings; seasonal Earth-body field recordings and noise floor; voice, poetry and meditation introduction; editing and mixing; recording in Portland, Oregon.Recorded by Gina Wisotzky and Bethany Carder on August 25, 2026 at 6:00 AM PDT / 9:00 AM EDT, in Durham, North Carolina and Portland, Oregon.TextUrsula K. Le Guin — Always Coming HomeExcerpt from the Second and Third Houses of the Earth, pp. 84–85 in the edition used for this episode:Come among the unsown grasses, bearing richly the oaks, heavy with acorns, the sweet roots and unploughed earth. Come among the deer on the hill, the fish in the river, the quail in the meadows. You can take them. You can eat them. Like you, they are food. They are with you, not for you. Who are their owners? This is the puma's range. This hill is the vixen's. This is the owl's tree. This is the mouse's run. This is the minnow's pool. It is all one place. Come take your place. No fences here but sanctions. No war here but dying. There is dying here. Come hunt. It is yourself you hunt. Come gather yourself from the grass, the branch, the earth.

Mining the Media opens with G.K. paying tribute to legendary pop artist Peter Max, whose bold, colorful work helped define the visual culture of the 1960s. G.K. reflects on the beauty and value of Max's art and recalls the opportunity to see his work displayed in a gallery. From art, G.K. turns to deception—and a story involving Texas Democratic Senate candidate James Talarico. G.K. discusses reported comments attributed to Talarico's pastor suggesting that the image Talarico presents during the general-election campaign may not reflect how he would govern if elected. Dave responds that there's "nothing new under the sun," connecting the discussion to political strategy and Saul Alinsky's Rules for Radicals. Then Dave opens Crusty's Corner: "Who Guards the Guardians?" Newly released FBI records raise questions about agents who sought investigations involving Donald Trump and Elon Musk. Dave examines Crossfire Hurricane, the Carter Page FISA failures, the Durham investigation, investigative guardrails, and the danger of allowing political preference to influence government power.

Last year, around this time, I travelled to Durham, NC for a record label conference. The city reminded me of Eugene, OR, where I went to school for a short time. Both are university towns. Durham has a bigger population, and is just one node of a much larger urban area, but the downtown cores are similarly compact, pedestrian-friendly, and relatively quiet.My mission at the conference was to figure out how to grow my business and innovate my way toward prosperity. A tall order. Given that my business model is hyper-niche—capturing environmental recordings and creating instrumental musical suites—I was sifting ideas and prospects, feeling good about taking time to reflect and plan. As I walked to an evening event downtown, I was taken in by the sound of crickets in a sparsely filled surface parking lot. We have crickets in Oregon, of course, but perhaps not as many in our cities. The sound was both familiar and novel. I had my Sennheiser binaural headset in my pocket, and decided to capture the moment. From there I took a meandering walk into the heart of the city. This is one of my first urban soundwalks in the US—something that had long occurred to me to do, but never seemed particularly promising, aesthetically or commercially.But, as I was feeling the sensory excitement that comes with being in a new place, I reasoned it was high time to experiment. I let my ears lead the way. There are urban sounds throughout the recording, but they largely seem confined to the auditory horizon. The near field sound of the city is so quiet it could almost read as pastoral. As I padded into the downtown blocks, a fountain in the plaza of the Durham Convention Center beckoned me toward it. Felling open to it, the shimmering sound put me in a kind of audio trance. I just stood there for several minutes—long enough to become self-conscious—figuring passersby might take me for a tweaker staring at the ground. I took a photo of the sidewalk to memorialize the moment.I felt a peace wash over me there, surrounded by people, cars, trains, energy, life. It was all very ordinary, but as I stood listening, I began to sense the extraordinary qualities of it too. I know that might sound hokey, but it's true. I tried to convey that feeling in the score. Maybe it will translate, listening to it? That's the hope, anyways. Once again, thanks for reading along and listening.

In the mid-1950s, North Carolina was one of the poorest states in the country. Its economy ran on tobacco, furniture, and textiles — all three in decline — and its universities were turning out talent that promptly left for somewhere with better jobs. Find bonus content and more on our Substack: https://designbetterpodcast.com/p/mack-paul-co-author-of-miracle-road Today the stretch of pine woods between Raleigh, Durham, and Chapel Hill is the largest research park in the United States. The barcode came out of it. So did AZT, ultrasound, and AstroTurf. Our guest Mack Paul spent years working out how that happened. He's the co-author of Miracle Road, a history of Research Triangle Park (known as RTP) written with his father — a journalist — and built on about 160 interviews with the scientists, planners, and politicians who were there. It's out October 6th. Hundreds of research parks have been attempted, and most failed. RTP started later than Silicon Valley or Route 128, with no defense money, no entrepreneurial culture, and universities that were openly uneasy about mixing academia with industry. But it worked anyway. Mack's answer to why is not what you might expect. The park itself was almost an afterthought. What made it work was a set of long, unglamorous commitments: a governor who went industry hunting, a community college system that promised to train any company's workers for free, and a decision about desegregation that made North Carolina a better bet than Virginia — which is a big part of why IBM came in 1965. We talk about what made it take off, the challenges now as RTP tries to become something denser and less car-dependent, and what it takes to build a place people actually want to be. We also talk about what it's like to write a book with your father. Bio Mack Paul is a founder of Morningstar Law Group in Raleigh, where he has spent 30 years on the legal and political machinery behind how places get built — zoning, land use, environmental permitting, public-private partnerships, and public financing for infrastructure, mostly on large mixed-use and urban infill projects in North Carolina's Triangle region. He's a LEED Accredited Professional and served six years as the public member of the NC Building Code Council. He sits on the NC State Design Guild board, has advised the modernist preservation nonprofit US Modernist, helped organize the “Build Raleigh Better” symposium, and co-founded a development company aimed at raising design quality in the region. He teaches Real Estate Development Law at NC State. Mack is the co-author, with his father, of Miracle Road: The Story of Research Triangle Park, published by Duke University Press. *** Premium Episodes on Design Better This ad-supported episode is available to everyone.

Clemson's 22-7 win over Georgia Southern ended at 1:07 AM on Sunday. Wes Durham was in Pittsburgh by 9 AM to call that day's 1 PM game between the Falcons and Steelers. Durham, who works for the ACC Network, ESPN and SiriusXM College in addition to being in his 23rd year calling games for the Falcons, joins the podcast to talk the logistics of getting from one point to another -- and this after an almost two-hour weather delay before the Clemson game. Durham also doesn't hold back on his concern about Clemson's football program. During the offseason he thought Dabo Swinney's 18th team could finish anywhere from 8-4 to 4-8. "They don't scare people now. And they haven't scared people in a while," Durham said. "They are a good football program. But the thing that would concern me right now is would you say they're better than Miami? Better than SMU? Better than Louisville? Would you say they're better than Virginia? I wouldn't right now." Clemson is a slight favorite at home Saturday against North Carolina, a team it thrashed in Chapel Hill last season.        

If you've ever wondered what tarot and ancient mourning rituals can teach us about grief, episode 460 of Grief and Happiness is for you. Psychic medium Jenna Matlin discusses her book, The Tarot Book of the Dead, born from helping clients hold unresolved loss—including the taboo "widow's fire" that can follow a partner's death. She compares global grieving traditions to the West's approach, showing how ritual can make grief sacred.In This Episode, You Will Learn:(01:06) Jenna Matlin's introduction — tarot reading, mediumship, and doula training(01:55) How tarot and mediumship help clients process unresolved grief(06:15) What Western culture gets wrong about holding space for someone else's pain(08:26) Emily's story of losing her husband Jacques — and the friends who stayed(14:00) Why some people receive spirit visits in dreams and others don't(18:04) The "At the Waterline" tarot spread for grief and mediumship readings(23:06) "Widow's fire": the instinctual desire for aliveness after loss(27:06) How death became the unexpected inspiration behind The Tarot Book of the DeadJenna Matlin is a professional tarot reader and psychic medium based in Durham, North Carolina, with a practice serving clients worldwide since 2012 and a tarot career dating to 1990. She is the author of multiple books, most recently The Tarot Book of the Dead, published by Weiser Books, drawing on her anthropology background and cross-cultural research into death and mourning. Her honors include a COVR Silver Award and Best Spiritual Guru distinction from Philadelphia Magazine, and she teaches at Omega Institute while mentoring aspiring readers.In this episode, Jenna brings that lens to grief, exploring it through tarot, mediumship, and ritual. Drawing on her anthropology background, she contrasts the West's administrative approach to death with the communal, presence-based mourning of indigenous cultures, arguing Western culture rarely teaches people to sit with pain without trying to fix it. She describes tools she uses with grieving clients, including a tarot spread called "At the Waterline," and speaks to disenfranchised grief among those excluded from funerals. She also introduces "widow's fire," the surge of desire that can follow a partner's death, framing it as sacred rather than shameful, and closes by weaving in myth to argue grief deserves more ritual and community.Connect with Jenna Matlin:WebsiteInstagramTikTokYouTubeGet Jenna's books!Let's Connect: WebsiteLinkedInFacebookInstagramTwitterPinterestThe Grief and Happiness AllianceBook: Emily Thiroux Threatt - Loving and Living Your Way Through Grief Hosted on Acast.

This Sunday, Pastor John Durham continued our His Hand sermon series with a message from Isaiah 46 on the sovereignty of God. John encouraged us that the size of our view of God shapes the strength of our faith. Using Isaiah 46, he contrasted the burdens of false gods with the living God who created us, sustains us, knows us, and faithfully accomplishes His purposes.

By the time Michael Peterson went to trial, the case had attracted national attention, particularly after details about his personal life came to light, particularly his numerous affairs with men. The case gained even more attention when it was learned that, in 1985, Michael Peterson's friend Elizabeth Ratliff died under very similar circumstances to those of his wife. With significant evidence against him and no compelling argument for his innocence, Michael Peterson was found guilty of his wife's murder in 2003. But, as it turned out, that was hardly the end of the story.ReferencesAssociated Press. 2002. "Durham novelist insists wife's death caused by fall on stairs, not beating."

"When you're in need, you realize you need help. And when you're successful, you realize you got help all along." — James FarrinIn a world obsessed with digital efficiency and quick fixes, the real currency of a meaningful life remains independent thought, presence, and intentional effort.In this episode of Gratitude Through Hard Times, host Chris Schembra sits down with James "Jim" Farrin, founder, President, and CEO of the Law Offices of James Scott Farrin. Jim reflects on growing up across 10 countries in 17 years, applying rigorous business principles to plaintiff representation, and taking on one of the largest civil rights litigations in U.S. history. He breaks down why authentic leadership requires intentional culture, why high metrics can distort purpose, and how focusing on service frees leaders from personal despair.10 Memorable Quotes:"When you're in need, you realize you need help. And when you're successful, you realize you got help all along." — James Farrin"In a time of despair, turning attention outwards and focusing on the people you serve sets you free and gets you out of your own head." — James Farrin"Culture is either defined intentionally by leadership or by the strongest personality in the room." — James Farrin"Real currency in a meaningful life remains independent thought, presence, and intentional effort." — Chris Schembra"When a measure becomes a target, it ceases to be a good measure." — Chris Schembra (referencing Goodhart's Law)"No man is an island. We need people, we've always needed people, and we need them more than ever." — James Farrin"Our clients aren't superheroes—they're ordinary people who overcome adversity through faith, perseverance, and getting the right help." — James Farrin"In a world of everlasting change, find the constants and savor the constancy around you." — Chris Schembra"We must step out of the tyranny of the 'or' and into the genius of the 'and'." — Chris Schembra (quoting Jim Collins)"Gratitude doesn't change your circumstances; it changes your capacity to carry them." — Chris Schembra10 Key Takeaways:Navigating Constant Transition: Lessons from living across 10 countries in 17 years on leaning into family constants, building adaptability, and trusting that new chapters always work out.Turning Despair Into Empathy: How refocusing on the suffering of marginalized clients during high-stakes civil rights litigation removed personal worry and provided purpose.Building Culture via "The JSF Way": Translating abstract corporate values into 24 concrete, daily behaviors that are actively practiced, evaluated, and reinforced firm-wide.Establishing a "South Star": Defining explicitly what an organization will not tolerate—such as greed, lack of accountability, self-centeredness, and "being a jerk".Avoiding Goodhart's Law in Business Growth: Recognizing when aggressive numerical growth targets (like 15% annual growth) risk outkicking quality, and shifting focus back to client-centric meaning.The Power of Confident Humility: Drawing inspiration from military leaders and achieving high-level legal success while maintaining unpretentious humility and honoring team contributions.Resisting Digital & AI Isolation: Preserving human-to-human empathy and direct client relationships instead of outsourcing core human care to automated chatbots and scripts.Fire Bullets, Then Cannonballs: Testing small strategic initiatives before making multi-million dollar or firm-wide commitments.Finding Modern Heroism in Ordinary People: Celebrating everyday perseverance, vulnerability, and resilience over performative social media achievements.Sustaining Unsaid Gratitude: Creating regular operational space to acknowledge the mentors, family members, and team members who make collective success possible.About our Guest:James "Jim" Scott Farrin is the founder, President, and CEO of the Law Offices of James Scott Farrin, one of the largest plaintiff's firms in the Carolinas. Since opening his doors in Durham, North Carolina in September 1997, Jim has grown the firm to more than 60 attorneys serving clients across North and South Carolina, recovering over $2 billion in compensation for more than 78,000 injured people. His practice areas include personal injury, workers' compensation, Social Security disability, and civil rights litigation, and he is best known in the legal community for applying rigorous business principles to the practice of law itself, an approach that has been the subject of guest lectures at his alma mater's Master of Judicial Studies Program.Jim's path to the courtroom is not a conventional one. The oldest of five children, he spent his childhood in 10 different countries over 17 years while his father worked internationally for Colgate-Palmolive and other global brands, before returning to the United States for his last two years of high school at Phillips Exeter Academy in New Hampshire. He went on to earn a B.A. in Philosophy from Trinity College in Hartford, where he was elected to Phi Beta Kappa, and a J.D. with honors from Duke University School of Law. He began his career at a corporate firm in California, but found the work lacking in meaning and nearly left the law entirely. In 1995 he returned to Durham, joined a plaintiffs' firm, and remembers to this day the first personal injury client he handed a settlement to. He has not looked back.Jim played a leading role in In re Black Farmers Discrimination Litigation, one of the largest civil rights cases in United States history. He is a member of the Million Dollar Advocates Forum, the American Association for Justice's Leaders Forum, the North Carolina Advocates for Justice, the Public Justice Foundation, and the North Carolina Bar Association. He has been recognized on Business North Carolina's Power List for Law, named among North Carolina's Most Influential Leaders, and honored with a 2021 Diversity & Inclusion Award.

When Kathleen Peterson died in December 2001, it was assumed her death had been the result of an accidental fall down the stairs after combining alcohol and Valium. However, within a few weeks, suspicion fell on Kathleen's husband, Michael, after the medical examiner concluded that Kathleen's injuries were consistent with assault, not an accidental fall.By the time Michael Peterson went to trial, the case had attracted national attention, particularly after details about his personal life came to light. The case gained even more attention when it was learned that, in 1985, Michael Peterson's friend Elizabeth Ratliff died under very similar circumstances to those of his wife.
