Send us Fan MailWhat if the biggest threat to scientific integrity isn't bad science - but the system we use to decide what gets called science in the first place?Every year, millions of scientific papers enter the literature. But behind those papers is an increasingly complicated ecosystem of peer review, Open Access, publication fees, citation metrics, academic incentives, paper mills - and now artificial intelligence.And some experts believe we're reaching a point where the scientific literature itself is becoming contaminated with so much questionable material that separating signal from noise is becoming extraordinarily difficult.Joining us today are two people who have spent decades inside the world's scientific publishing ecosystem and who have written a fascinating new book, How the Internet Disrupted Science ( https://www.disruptedscience.com/ ), examining how digital technology, changing business models, artificial intelligence, and perverse incentives have transformed the scientific literature itself.Kent Anderson has spent more than thirty years at the highest levels of scholarly publishing, serving as Publishing Director at the New England Journal of Medicine, Publisher at Science magazine, CEO of the Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery, Director of Journals at the American Academy of Pediatrics, and founder of two of the publishing industry's most influential publications, The Scholarly Kitchen and The Geyser.Joining him is Joy Moore, whose career spans virtually every major corner of scientific publishing - from Nature Publishing Group, Blackwell, Wiley, the American Medical Association, Silverchair, EBSCO and many more - helping shape how scientific knowledge is created, distributed, discovered and trusted in the digital age.Together they argue that the Internet didn't simply change how science is communicated - it fundamentally changed the incentives behind scientific publishing itself, opening the door to paper mills, fake journals, AI-generated research, and a growing crisis of trust.#Science #ScientificResearch #SciencePublishing #ScientificPublishing #PeerReview #OpenAccess #AI #ArtificialIntelligence #ScienceCommunication #ResearchIntegrity #ScientificIntegrity #PaperMills #ResearchFraud #AcademicPublishing #PublishOrPerish #Misinformation #FakeScience #ScienceAndTechnology #Innovation #ArtificialIntelligence #FutureOfScience #TrustInScience #ProgressPotentialAndPossibilitiesSupport the show

Huxley is an example of having a good attitude about publicly acknowledging errors and learning from them.

“ALMOST MARRIED TO THE MOB: HOLLYWOOD ACTRESSES WHO DATED MOBSTERS” - 1/19/2026  (123) In this episode, we slip into the shadows where classic Hollywood glamour meets organized crime, exploring the classic Hollywood actresses who found themselves romantically entangled with real-life mobsters. At a time when studios tightly controlled female stars' images, these notorious bad boys offered something intoxicatingly different: raw power beyond the backlot, fierce loyalty, protection from predators both on and off the screen, and a rebellious thrill that defied Hollywood's carefully scripted rules. Drawn by charisma, thrills and maybe even a little danger, these women navigated a world where diamonds, nightclubs, and whispered threats coexisted with premieres and press junkets—and where love could be as risky as it was seductive. This week, we're looking at the romantic entanglements that occurred when the mob meets Hollywood.  SHOW NOTES:  Sources: Tinseltown Gangsters” The Rise & Decline of the Mob in Hollywood (2024), by Jeffrey Sussman; Handsome Johnny: The Life & Death of Johnny Rosselli, Gentleman Gangster, Hollywood Producer, CIA Assassin (2018), by Lee Server; Double Cross: The Explosive Inside Story of the Mobster Who Controlled America (2016), by Sam Giancana, Chuck Giancana, & Bettina Giancana; Hollywood & The Mob (2011), by Tim Adler; An American Mafioso: The Johnny Rosselli Story (1991), by Charles Rappleye; Detour: A Hollywood Story (1988), by Cheryl Crane; Lana: The Lady, the Legend, The Truth (1982), by Lana Turner; “Sam Giancana: Chicago Godfather, CIA Collaborator, And The Man Who May Have Put JFK In The White House,” May 16. 2024,  by Carly Silver, ATI.com; “Two Survivors: The Scandalous Saga of Lana Turner and Cheryl Crane,” June 8, 2023, by Hadley Hall Meares, Vanity Fair; “Actor Lana Turner's Daughter Kills Turner's Gangster Lover,” 2022, by Thomas DeBose, EBSCO.com “New Allegations Emerge About Marilyn Monroe's Final Hours,” May 11. 2012, CBSNews.com; “The Gangster and The Goddess,” April 1999, by Patricia Bosworth, Vanity Fair; “Killers Gave Rosselli Drink, Shot Him in Belly,” August 10, 1976, by William Tucker, The Miami News;  “The Thug.

William Shakespeare is undoubtedly one of the greatest literary geniuses of all time. Author of over 30 plays and over 150 poems, he masterfully knit together over 20,000 English words, all out inventing some 1,700 of them, to beautifully capture full ranges of complex emotions and subtle nuances of human nature that still capture audiences over 400 years later. Pretty impressive for a 16th century man from a modest family with only a grammar school education, illiterate parents, illiterate children, who never left the country, didn't seem to own any books, and has no surviving handwritten letters or documents of any kind today. So impressive, in fact, it actually raises some pretty big questions. How exactly did a man like William Shakespeare write such an impressive collection of literary masterpieces? Or didn't he?

Public School Porn - School and Public Libraries Targeting Minors

The non-profit organization Pornography Is Not Education reveals concerns about explicit content in school and public libraries targeting minors. Commercial providers like EBSCO, Cengage, and Gale are criticized for embedding harmful advertising and explicit links within educational resources, bypassing internet filters. This issue has triggered legislative responses in states like Mississippi and Utah, though many struggle with enforcement and accountability.In Texas, despite the U.S. Supreme Court's support for age verification laws, the challenge persists with providers continuing to expose students to inappropriate content. Schools employ "single sign-on" systems that shield student activities from parental view, complicating oversight.There's also a troubling trend where schools partner with public libraries to share digital resources, enabling them to deny direct responsibility for the content accessed by students. This partnership model, funded significantly during the Obama Administration, is expanding nationwide, further diluting parental control over the educational content their children are exposed to.Parents are encouraged to engage directly by requesting access to their children's online school portals, communicating with district administrators, and advocating at school board meetings to ensure a safer digital environment for their children.Support the Show.DONATE TODAY!www.ParentsRightsInEducation.com

The Resonance Test 91: Open Source with Christopher Spalding, Rachel Fadlon, and Chris Howard

“Open source” is, of course, a technology term. But, as it turns out, when you connect tech-minded people with those who don't necessarily think of themselves as IT nerds, something magical can happen. In this case, what works in the digital world—transparency, community, collaboration—has a funny way of spilling over into the analog world. Because, well, people are people. We're wired to connect. In today's episode of *The Resonance Test,* EPAM's open source sage Chris Howard chats up two open source experts from EBSCO Information Services: Christopher Spalding, Vice President of Product, and Rachel Fadlon, Vice President of SaaS Marketing and National Conferences & Events. EBSCO is a founding member of Folio, an open source library services platform (LSP), to which EPAM contributes. The Open Source Initiative (OSI) maintains a precise definition for the term, but in broad strokes, open source refers to software containing source code that can be edited and used by anyone. We all use it every day without realizing it. Indeed, open source powers the internet as we know it. Howard asked Spalding and Fadlon to reflect on what open source has been like at EBSCO, so other companies and industries can learn from an open source project that has achieved scale. Folio has allowed developers and librarians to work together in an unprecedented way. Being part of the Folio community, says Fadlon, has dramatically transformed the way EBSCO interacts with customers across the company. The relationships that develop organically in an open source community, which are less formal and more “person to person,” says Fadlon, have influenced EBSCO to be more community-oriented in all aspects of the business. “The way that you approach someone in the library as a community member *to* a community member is very different than the way we were approaching our customers before,” she says. “We've made a lot more things more transparent and open” since joining Folio. Spalding says even the language has changed around communications more broadly. “The focus is on, ‘Well, why would that be closed? Let's make that open. Why wouldn't we talk about that?' Let's put it all on the table because we get feedback instantly, and then we know the direction that we go as a partnership with the larger community.” Of course, the trio also talked about security and artificial intelligence, the latter playing out differently in different regions. Open source made headlines recently when Linux, one of the most well-known examples of open source, narrowly avoided a cybersecurity disaster thanks to an eagle-eyed engineer. Open source comes with risks, like anything online. Spalding says security concerns might have pushed libraries away from open source a few years ago, but now, increasingly, libraries are adopting the open source adage: “More eyes, fewer bugs. And definitely, more eyes, better security.” Howard agrees. “We shouldn't be afraid of having all of those eyes on us… One of my developers calls it kind of ‘battle testing' the software, throwing it out to the world and saying, ‘Does this do what you want it to do?' And if it doesn't, at least you can tell me … and I can go and fix it or you can even fix it for me if you want to. And I think we're now finding more and more organizations that actually find that more attractive than scary.” Open yourself up to a more flexible, transparent future by listening to this engaging conversation.

During the COVID pandemic, much of life and learning went virtual, and we all thought we could get by just fine doing everything on Amazon and Zoom. But more recently, we have come to find out just how important in-person connection and interaction are – for business, pleasure and especially education. While it's great we have technology to help us do things remotely, Baton Rouge entrepreneurs are helping people realize that institutions like libraries and brick-and-mortar learning spaces play an invaluable role in the learning process, for kids and adults. Baton Rouge resident Tony Zanders is founder and CEO of Skilltype, a talent management platform that Tony created in 2018 specifically to help libraries better attract, train and retain personnel so they will be better able to compete in the 21st century. Tony hit upon the idea for Skilltype several years ago, when he realized that many libraries struggle with personnel problems caused by the fact that the training and professional development programs for library employees are still structured around the 20th century model of libraries, which were largely about collections, and have failed to take into account what today's libraries really need. Skilltype is a proprietary software that helps train library personnel and then match them to library systems in need. Tony is an ed tech entrepreneur, who worked at Ex Libris and EBSCO, both large library database companies, before founding Skilltype.  Amanda Vincent is founder, owner and CEO of Studyville, which is based off the We Work shared office space concept but is an academic workspace for teens. Amanda formed the company in Baton Rouge in 2020, after fighting the homework battle from the front lines of her living room during the COVID lockdown.  She and her husband Benn tried every form of tutoring, coercion, manipulation, and textbook throwing until they realized there had to be a better way – and  Studyville was born. The venture isn't Amanda's first: she co-founded Opera Louisiane in 2007 and later started the Fur Ball, the black tie dog-friendly fundraiser that benefits the Companion Animal Alliance. She figured if she could convince people to dress in ball gowns and bring their dogs with them to a ball, she could probably also convince them that studying could be cool!  Amanda is a creative with a background in marketing and a masters degree in opera.  Out to Lunch is recorded live over lunch at Mansurs on the Boulevard.
