There is, of course, Israel's war with Iran. And then there is the New York City Democratic mayoral primary, which will take place this Tuesday, June 24th. This year's NYC mayoral election is of particular consequence because of 33-year-old self-proclaimed socialist Zohran Mamdani, to many Jewish New Yorkers because of his positions on antisemitism and Israel. In college, Mamdani co-founded “Students for Justice in Palestine.” Now, while he claims to be concerned about raising antisemitism, he defends the phrase “globalize the intifada.” When asked about his position on Israel two weeks ago, Mamdani said that as mayor, he would bring NYC back into compliance with international law, suggesting that the city administration's support for Israel is illegal.To unpack this significant election cycle, we are joined by Howard Wolfson, who leads the Education Program of Bloomberg Philanthropies. From 2010 to 2013, Howard served as the NYC Deputy Mayor for Government Affairs and Communications – where he oversaw local, state, and federal government relations, with particular involvement in the education, transportation, and technology sectors. Howard currently runs Former NYC Mayor Mike Bloomberg's SuperPAC and continues to advise Bloomberg on matters of politics and communications.–CREDITS:ILAN BENATAR - Producer & EditorMARTIN HUERGO - Sound EditorMARIANGELES BURGOS - Additional EditingMAYA RACKOFF - Operations DirectorGABE SILVERSTEIN - ResearchYUVAL SEMO - Music Composer

In this episode of the Knowledge for Teachers podcast, I speak with Amy Haywood and Nick Parkinson, co-authors of the Grattan Institute's Maths Guarantee report. We unpack what they describe as Australia's “national problem” with maths underperformance — from the equity gaps to the urgent need for high-quality curriculum materials and teacher support. Amy and Nick share key findings from their research, including a national teacher survey and international case studies, as well as practical insights from some of Australia's most effective schools. We dive deep into what explicit instruction really looks like, the power of fluency, and how the instructional hierarchy can help teachers better sequence their maths lessons. Whether you're a school leader, instructional coach, or passionate teacher, this conversation will leave you with clarity, evidence, and next steps to improve maths teaching in your school.

What I didn't expect when we first logged into Riverside.fm for the podcast...was his opening remarks. "I am a bit bi-polar, dyslexic, a recovering alcoholic, and diagnosed with ADHD." and my response was "Is that it?" Then that turned into what I expect to be a series of episodes because forty-five minutes just ain't enough time. In this engaging episode of "Wine Talks," I sit with Tim Hanni, a Master of Wine, to delve into the fascinating world of wine. Tim reveals historical insights, such as the original negative meaning of "terroir," and explains how wine education often overlooks the diverse perceptions and preferences of consumers. Tim shares his unconventional path to becoming a Master of Wine, highlighting his personal challenges with dyslexia and alcoholism. The conversation shifts to address the wine industry's failure to adapt to modern consumers, emphasizing the need for a deeper understanding of sensory individualism and adaptive marketing strategies. Tim critiques the industry's elitism and disconnect from wine's rich history, pointing out that even acclaimed wines like those from Bordeaux were traditionally sweet. This episode is a thought-provoking critique of the wine world, stressing the importance of embracing diversity in wine perceptions and learning. The term "terroir" originally had a negative connotation, referring to "soiled wine" which was of poor quality, much like soiled diapers. Tim Hanni, the guest of the podcast, is a Master of Wine who became one of the first two Americans to earn this prestigious title, despite having dyslexia, ADHD, and being a recovering alcoholic. Master Sommelier and Master of Wine programs differ substantially, with the latter focusing more on the business and science aspects of wine rather than purely service. Historically, French champagne was incredibly sweet, sometimes even sweeter than Coca Cola, challenging modern perceptions of what "fine" wine should be. Have at it folks...this really is some crazy stuff.

The use of artificial intelligence (AI) tools to prepare health professions admissions applications is increasing. These tools can improve writing but raise ethical concerns about application authenticity. Drs. Jill Brennan-Cook and Stephanie Gedzyk-Nieman share the results of their scoping review on the use of AI by applicants applying to nursing and other health professions programs and by admission reviewers. AI tools can enhance the efficiency of the admissions review process, but clear guidelines are needed by schools to address ethical issues.

Mind your plastic pollution is a conversation that we all need to have because we all partake in using single-use plastic as the system is set up that way.  In this episode of the How to Protect the Ocean podcast, host Andrew Lewin engages in a conversation with Natasha Tucker, the Executive Director of Mind Your Plastic, a Canadian charity focused on eliminating plastic pollution. The discussion centers around the pervasive issue of plastic in our environment, emphasizing the need for behavioral change among individuals and businesses to reduce our dependence on plastics. Key points from the episode include: Understanding Plastic Pollution: The episode highlights how plastic is ubiquitous in our lives, affecting not only our oceans but also our health and the environment. The conversation underscores the importance of recognizing the impact of plastic pollution on both a local and global scale. Behavioral Change: Natasha emphasizes that changing consumer habits is crucial. Many people are resistant to altering their behaviors, often clinging to convenience over sustainability. The episode discusses how small actions, such as opting for reusable items instead of single-use plastics, can lead to significant changes over time. Education and Awareness: The importance of education in fostering awareness about plastic pollution is a recurring theme. Natasha shares her journey of engaging with the public through beach cleanups and educational programs, which not only help clean the environment but also inspire others to reconsider their consumption habits. Targeted Messaging: The episode discusses the need for tailored messaging to connect with different audiences. For instance, when speaking to businesses, focusing on the financial benefits of reducing plastic use can be more effective than solely discussing environmental impacts. This approach helps to align sustainability with economic incentives. Community Engagement: Natasha shares experiences from community cleanups, illustrating how direct involvement can lead to a greater understanding of the issue. Engaging with the community fosters a sense of responsibility and encourages individuals to take action against plastic pollution. Policy and Advocacy: The conversation touches on the role of policy in addressing plastic pollution. Natasha explains how Mind Your Plastic advocates for stronger regulations and works with businesses to find sustainable alternatives to plastic. In conclusion, the episode emphasizes that reducing our dependence on plastic pollution requires a collective effort involving education, community engagement, and a willingness to change behaviors. By making conscious choices and advocating for better policies, individuals can contribute to a healthier environment and a more sustainable future.
