The National Guard was deployed to Washington, D.C. earlier this month as a part of President Donald Trump's effort to mitigate crime in the capital. And Chicago could be next. City and state leaders, such as Gov. JB Pritzker, have made their message clear. “Do not come to Chicago.” Since then, the White House has issued a press release of its own. A bullet-pointed list of crime statistics and headlines. Reset will go behind those headlines and fact-check the White House's claims that Chicago residents want the National Guard in the city with WBEZ criminal justice reporter Chip Mitchell and Northwestern professor Andrew Papachristos.

Pierre Poilievre won his byelection and will be returning to Parliament in September. He's raring to go, and probably drafting a whole bunch of new catchphrases and slogans. He's back and ready to try and convince conservatives he's the right man for the job.But, in the media, the picture being painted is a little less clear. One poll shows the party being neck and neck with the Liberals. Another shows a huge disparity.

In July, Mark Carney made it clear to public workers that there would be a tightening of the belt. Ministers were told to save 15% from their departmental budgets over the next three years. The deadline to do so is next week, August 28th. What that looks like in practice is pretty bleak. By 2028, it has been estimated that over 57,000 full-time equivalent workers will be laid off. Who will be laid off? And is this type of austerity bad governance?Meanwhile, in Ontario, Doug Ford is mandating a return to office for all workers, five days a week, come January 2026. Who will this affect?Host San Grewal and reporter Stacy Thomas break it down.Host: San GrewalCredits: Tristan Capacchione (Producer), Lucie Laumonier (Associate Producer and Fact Checking), tom sayers (Audio Editor), max collins (Director of Audio), Jesse Brown (Editor)Guest: Stacy ThomasPhoto: Creative edit by Tristan Capacchione, with photos from Gage Skidmore and Simon DawsonFurther reading on our websiteSponsors:oxio: Head over to canadaland.oxio.ca and use code CANADALAND for your first month free!

Megyn Kelly gives a thorough fact-check of The New York Times' "The Daily" podcast episode focused on Russiagate this week, and reveals how it gets the story completely wrong. She's joined by Michael Shellenberger and Aaron Mate to discuss the way the podcast spreads disinformation about the reality of the Russiagate hoax, the way the New York Times has been emotionally invested in the Russiagate story since 2016, the collusion between intel agencies and the media, the way the New York Times distracts from the Russiagate hoax reality by focusing on President Obama personally, the tactics used by the press to smear Trump and his administration, the shocking gaslighting from the NYT "Daily" podcast about the Steele dossier, the host and guest's refusal to even say the word "Steele," the way the episode serves to misinform listeners and news consumers, and more.Maté- https://www.aaronmate.net/Shellenberger- https://www.public.news/Riverbend Ranch: Visit https://riverbendranch.com/ | Use promo code MEGYN for $20 off your first order.Grand Canyon University: https://GCU.edu

We did it! We've arrived at the final episode of Season 1. This episode picks up where episode 6 left off, by diving even deeper into the question: what's the relationship between empathy and morality?As always, you can find a (not Substack-generated) transcript of the episode, as well as a music-free remix, here.“Deliberative Empathy”In our last episode, we met Ryan.Ryan is a minister who has devoted his life to serving others. Yet, at one point, a psychologist told him he had “no empathy.”Surprisingly, Ryan could sort of see their point. He knew he experienced empathy differently than most people. He was even a little skeptical of whether empathy deserves the pedestal we often put it on.But hold on—even if empathy isn't perfect, couldn't it still be really important?In this episode, we explore a broader, richer view of empathy. Maybe empathy isn't a magic spark you either have or lack (which can be detected by a perfectly tuned psychometric test). Maybe empathy is more like a set of muscles we can exercise. According to this view, empathy is not merely a feeling, but a complex set of skills. These skills can look different from person to person, and can be learned, practiced, and strengthened over time.To help us unpack all this, we spoke with the philosopher Heidi Maibom, who makes the case that empathy is far more than an emotional reflex. Instead, Heidi argues that empathy is a deliberate practice that plays a crucial role in living a moral life.Topics Discussed* Recap! (00:24)* Why we care about (and try to measure) empathy: we often assume that having empathy is necessary for being a good person. (01:29) * The original (and very dangerous) myth that autistic people don't have empathy, and its relationship to the “ToM-deficit” view of autism. (01:52)* A new myth: autistic have empathy and have a ToM deficit—which means that autistic people are like the mirror image of psychopaths. But this new myth comes with problems of its own. (03:06)* There are so many different types of empathy! But are these long lists of different types of empathy useful? How are all these different types of empathy related? (06:32)* An alternative way of thinking about empathy: it's a four-step process (Fletcher-Watson and Bird, 2020) . The third step is the most important—and autistic people tend to be really good at that third step. (07:37)* But wait—maybe we need to further complicate how we think about empathy. (12:16)* Meet Heidi! (14:04)* Heidi's personal story illustrating the complexity of the empathy process. (14:56)* Heidi's view of empathy: it's a set of skills that allows us to navigate interpersonal negotiations. (17:40)* It's totally possible that autistic people engage in this process differently—but that doesn't entail any sort of “empathy deficit.” (18:17)* We should think about empathy developmentally. (20:27)* Recall: some people are pretty skeptical of empathy's importance. (22:23)* But in spite of these criticisms, Heidi maintains that empathy is really important. (24:33)* Heidi suggests some ways to “do” empathy better. (26:56)* Heidi thinks empathy is important for living a good, moral life, because morality isn't just a simple set of rules. (28:49)* Empathy is also helpful for reflecting on your own actions (hat-tip to Sartre). (32:02)* Plus, empathy is useful for recognizing the full value of other people. (33:06) * Heidi's response to the criticism that empathy is biased. (33:52)* The complexity of the empathy process opens up many different ways of “doing” empathy. (37:58)* We can all deliberately practice flexing our empathy muscles. Could this help non-autistic people empathize with autistic people? (39:14)Sources Mentioned* For more on how a person's “psychopathic” tendencies could be channeled into pro-social behavior: * Ohikuare, “Life as a Nonviolent Psychopath,” The Atlantic (2014).* Gagne, Sociopath: A Memoir (2024).* Heidi Maibom's work on empathy:* An overview: https://www.heidimaibom.com/empathy* Heidi's books: https://www.heidimaibom.com/books* Heidi's articles: https://www.heidimaibom.com/articles* Fletcher-Watson and Bird, “Autism and Empathy: What are the real links?” Autism, Vol. 24, Issue 1 (2020).* Examples of how DBT might boost empathy: * Giles, et al., “A thematic analysis of the subjective experiences of mothers with borderline personality disorder who completed Mother-Infant Dialectical Behaviour Therapy: a 3-year follow-up,” Borderline Personality Disorder and Emotion Regulation, Vol. 11, Article 25 (2024).* Mardani, et al., “The Impact of Dialectical Behavior Therapy in Reducing Emotional Exhaustion and Enhancing Empathy,” Journal of Personality and Psychosomatic Research, Vol. 1, No. 3 (2023).* Research on DBT and autism: * Keenan, et al., “Leveling Up Dialectical Behavior Therapy for Autistic Individuals with Emotion Dysregulation: Clinical and Personal Insights,” Autism in Adulthood, Vol. 6, No. 1 (2024).* Bloom, Against Empathy (2016).* Research on “thin slice” judgments, in which non-autistic people make negative snap judgments about autistic people:* Sasson, et al., “Neurotypical Peers are Less Willing to Interact with Those with Autism based on Thin Slice Judgments,” Scientific Reports (2017).* Research on autism and bullying:* Trundle, et al., “Prevalence of Victimisation in Autistic Individuals: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis,” Trauma, Violence, and Abuse, Vol. 24, Issue 4 (2023). * Ryan Althaus:* From Emaciated to Emancipated: The Story of a Skinny Mango (2023).* Even more books by Ryan!* Ryan's radio show. * More on how everyone needs to flex their empathy muscles: “How to Really Know Another Person” (Hidden Brain, 2022)CreditsHosting, Research, Fact-Checking, Script-Editing: Amelia Hicks and Joanna LawsonGuests: Heidi Maibom and Ryan AlthausMusic and Audio Production: Amelia HicksThank-YousA huge thank you to Heidi Maibom for helping us complicate our concept of empathy!

This week, Mike is flying solo and tackling a packed slate of topics. He addresses the controversial claim that Israel is starving Gazans — debunking viral misinformation, including a widely shared photo of a child that turns out to be false. As France moves toward recognizing a Palestinian state, Mike scrutinizes the spread of propaganda and acknowledges the real suffering while challenging the narrative that it's driven by Israeli policy. Mike reflects on Rabbi Ed Rosenthal's perspective on why does this humanitarian crisis deserve the world's attention and not others – where is the outrage? The show features Mark Sachs, ELNET's southeast regional director and Jacki Alexander, HonestReporting's CEO, examining the role of journalists and influencers in navigating today's chaotic media environment. And finally, Mike shares Bret Stephens' thought-provoking New York Times column, which questions the genocide accusations against Israel by pointing out inconsistencies in that narrative. Thank you for listening, sharing and subscribing to the Third Opinion Podcast!
Understanding Misinformation: Causes, Effects, and SolutionsIn this episode of Barenaked Money, hosts Josh Sheluk and Colin White from Verecan Capital Management Inc. welcome social scientist and author Matthew Facciani. They explore the pervasiveness of misinformation across history, its acceleration in the social media age, and the cognitive and social biases that make people susceptible to falsehoods. Facciani, whose latest book 'Misguided' delves into topics like conspiracy theories and AI-generated fake news, discusses the need for critical thinking, diverse social identities, and potential strategies to preemptively counter misinformation. The conversation also touches on the impact of AI, mistrust in institutions, and practical tools for enhancing media literacy.00:00 Introduction to Misinformation00:18 Welcome to Barenaked Money00:53 Meet Matthew Facciani: Social Scientist and Myth Buster01:46 The Journey of Writing 'Misguided'04:31 Understanding Susceptibility to Misinformation06:53 The Human Need to Belong12:03 The Business of Misinformation17:06 Strategies to Combat Misinformation22:10 Trust in Institutions and Generational Perspectives25:58 Tools for Media Literacy27:11 Professional Fact-Checking Techniques27:50 Challenges of Fact-Checking and Pre-Bunking Games28:48 Breaking the Algorithm31:02 Strategies for Healthier Social Media31:36 Transparency and Friction in Social Media40:53 The Role of AI in Misinformation43:51 The Importance of Personal Connection45:38 Conclusion and Final Thoughts

We're back! And this time, we're turning our attention to another ambiguous concept that has long shaped public (mis)understandings of autism: empathy.As always, you can find a (not Substack-generated) transcript of the episode, as well as a music-free remix, here.“I choose to live life deliberately”Maybe you've heard the claim that autistic people “lack empathy.” Or maybe you've heard the opposite: that, in fact, autistic people are hyper-empathetic.Maybe you've even heard that autistic people are so hyper-empathetic that they have paranormal telepathic abilities. Yikes!But what if, instead of making sweeping generalizations, we learned about the nuances of one person's experiences with empathy? When Joanna and I first started working on NeuroDiving, we did what any super-serious podcasters would do: we made a website. Not even a week after it went live, I received a friendly email from a minister in Santa Cruz, CA named Ryan Althaus. Diagnosed with autism as an adult, Ryan was eager to dive into the philosophical dimensions of his diagnosis. I Googled him, and in that Googling, I found a sermon in which he mentioned scoring a “0” on an empathy test while still in seminary. I had to know more.Turns out, Ryan had a whole host of insights into the nature of empathy. In our conversation with Ryan—NeuroDiving's first-ever interview!—he talked us through his experiences taking psychometric tests, reflected on how empathy shows up in his own life, and offered thoughtful critiques of over-reliance on empathy.So, in this episode, meet Ryan. I doubt you'll think about empathy in quite the same way again.Topics Discussed* Meet Ryan! (00:20)* Surprisingly, a psych test labeled Ryan as having “no empathy” (01:48).* Ryan's background (05:21).* How Ryan was diagnosed with autism after experience eating disorder relapse (06:07).* Ryan's autism diagnosis helped make sense of those earlier psych test results (the ones claiming he had “no empathy”). We explore the psych tests used in seminaries. (09:30).* Those psych tests also said that Ryan “likes to break rules for fun” (11:53).* The church polity exam illustrates Ryan's relationship with rules (12:56).* Autistic people tend to get low scores on tests that claim to measure empathy—but those tests have limitations (15:23).* How Ryan experiences cognitive empathy (AKA theory of mind) (20:58). * Ryan's experiences with emotional contagion (22:08).* Ryan's experience with “abstract empathy” (23:45).* Connection to alexithymia (24:34).* Ryan's experiments in living—how Ryan has worked to understand other people's experiences and emotions (25:46).* Ryan's three critiques of empathy (28:06).Sources Mentioned* Ryan Althaus, From Emaciated to Emancipated: The Story of a Skinny Mango (2023).* Even more books by Ryan!* Ryan's radio show. * Floyd and Gupta, “Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory,” StatPearls (2023).* The “unofficial” list of questions used to place people on the psychopathic deviate scale.* Some examples of the “standard view” on autism and empathy:* Langwerden, et al., “An Exploratory Study of MMPI-2-RF Personality and Psychopathology Profiles of Adults with Autism Spectrum Disorder without Intellectual Disability,” Clinical Neuropsychiatry, Vol. 19 Issue 5 (2022).* Shah, et al., “Trait Autism is a Better Predictor of Empathy than Alexithymia,” Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders (2019).* Sindermann, et al., “Empathy, Autistic Tendencies, and Systematizing Tendencies: Relationships Between Standard Self-Report Measures,” Frontiers in Psychiatry (2019).* An autistic researcher's take on autism and empathy:* Silvertant, “Autistics have lower empathy?” (2021).CreditsHosting, Research, Fact-Checking, Script-Editing: Amelia Hicks and Joanna LawsonGuest: Ryan AlthausMusic and Audio Production: Amelia HicksThank-YousThank you to Ryan for sharing his experiences and insights with us!

Professor Sander van der Linden's fascination with misinformation traces back to his own family's scars under Nazism, a regime that perfected propaganda so insidious it seeped invisibly into everyday life. In his award-winning book Foolproof, van der Linden argues that misinformation is a psychological virus, spreading through minds the way a biological virus hijacks cells. From Third Reich leaflets to modern algorithms, the tools have evolved, but the core infection remains the same: exploiting our mental shortcuts and illusions of truth. As the Capitol riots show, unchecked lies can kill. Van der Linden's mission is urgent: to build psychological vaccines that inoculate society from misinformation before deepfakes, AI, and data-hungry platforms unleash the next generation of invisible propaganda and push us past the point of no return.

We discuss how people check information that they suspect might be false, fake or misleading, and the role of news organisations in this process. If people come across information which they suspect may be false, fake or misleading, where do they turn to verify or debunk it? This is the question at the heart of this episode of our podcast mini series on the Digital News Report 2025. We discuss what are the most frequently named sources, where news organisations fit in among the wider choice of institutions, platforms and fac-checking websites, and how this all varies according to different audience factors. Speakers: Rasmus Kleis Nielsen is a Professor at the Department of Communication of the University of Copenhagen and a Senior Research Associate at the Reuters Institute for the Study of Journalism. He is a co-author of the Digital News Report 2025. Host Mitali Mukherjee is the Director of the Reuters Institute and is a political economy journalist with more than two decades of experience in TV, print and digital journalism.

In this sermon from John 4:43–54 titled Faith and Fact-Checking, Pastor Thomas walks us through the story of a desperate father, a dying son, and a Savior whose word is enough. In a culture obsessed with proof—where belief often hinges on what we can verify with our eyes—this passage challenges us to consider a different kind of faith. A faith that isn't built on spectacle or emotion, but on the spoken Word of Christ. Through four scenes—The Superficial Welcome, The Supernatural Weight, The Spoken Word, and The Saving Work—we're invited to see how Jesus exposes shallow belief, honors persistent trust, and ultimately transforms not just an individual, but an entire household. This is a call to deeper faith: faith without sight, faith that takes Jesus at His word, and faith that bears fruit in the home.
What happens when a major newspaper publishes a summer reading list where only five of the 15 books actually exist? Blake and David explore this real example of AI-generated content gone wrong and what it means for accounting professionals who increasingly rely on automated tools. They break down QuickBooks' latest price increases, demonstrate how AI can now build complex consolidation spreadsheets in minutes, and discuss why Excel skills still outrank AI knowledge in finance hiring. Plus, they examine the legal challenges facing Trump's tariff policies, alternative CPA pathway expansion, and hear from accounting student Jason Farley about the dangerous gap between classroom education and real-world cloud accounting practice.SponsorsPayhawk - http://accountingpodcast.promo/payhawkKeeper - http://accountingpodcast.promo/keeper REFRAME 2025 - http://accountingpodcast.promo/reframe2025 TeamUp - http://accountingpodcast.promo/teamupChapters(00:48) - Summer Reading List Mishap (02:52) - AI and the Future of Fact-Checking (05:27) - AI Video Generators and Fake News (08:20) - QuickBooks and AI Pricing Debate (09:16) - Elon Musk and Government Efficiency (10:41) - The Big Beautiful Bill and Its Implications (18:29) - Tariffs and Trade Wars (39:48) - Excel vs AI in Finance (42:42) - The Rise of Excel: A Brief History (43:44) - Introducing Perplexity AI: A Versatile Tool (53:56) - Alternative CPA Pathways and Legislative Changes (55:07) - The Role of the PCAOB in Audit Quality (59:25) - Controversies Surrounding IRS Commissioner Nominee Billy Long (01:03:59) - The Future of Accounting Internships and Outsourcing (01:20:20) - Perplexity's Onboarding Process: Results and Insights (01:24:38) - Upcoming Conferences and Closing Remarks Show NotesChicago Sun-Times fake summer reading list article https://www.chicagosuntimes.com/fake-summer-reading-list-2025South Carolina passes alternative CPA pathway legislation https://www.scstatehouse.gov/cpa-pathway-legislation-2025New Jersey alternative CPA pathway bill https://www.njleg.state.nj.us/bills/cpa-alternative-pathway-2025Oregon CPA licensure reform legislation https://www.oregonlegislature.gov/cpa-pathway-reform-2025Minnesota CPA education requirements change https://www.revisor.mn.gov/cpa-education-requirements-2025Illinois CPA pathway legislation https://www.ilga.gov/cpa-pathway-bill-2025Trump tariffs constitutional challenge court ruling https://www.reuters.com/legal/trump-tariffs-constitutional-challenge-2025Court of International Trade blocks global tariffs https://www.cit.uscourts.gov/trump-tariffs-ruling-2025International Emergency Economic Powers Act tariff authority https://www.treasury.gov/ieepa-tariff-authority-analysisPCAOB elimination provision in tax bill https://www.congress.gov/bill/pcaob-elimination-provisionBilly Long IRS Commissioner confirmation hearing https://www.finance.senate.gov/billy-long-confirmation-hearingBilly Long tribal tax credits promotion controversy https://www.irs.gov/tribal-tax-credits-fraud-warningFederal Tax Updates podcast with Danny Werfel https://federaltaxupdates.com/danny-werfel-interviewSolutions Magazine Excel vs AI survey https://solutionsmagazine.com/excel-ai-finance-survey-2025Microsoft Excel 40th anniversary analysis https://www.technologylab.com/excel-40-years-anniversaryQuickBooks pricing increases for AI features https://quickbooks.intuit.com/pricing-changes-ai-features-2025Puzzle AI accounting platform pricing https://puzzle.io/pricingDigits AI bookkeeping service costs https://digits.com/pricing-plansUplink AI bookkeeping pricing structure https://uplink.com/ai-bookkeeping-pricingAltman Dublin AI accounting company funding https://altman.ie/series-a-funding-announcementPerplexity Labs spreadsheet creation feature https://labs.perplexity.ai/spreadsheet-toolsMicrosoft Office bundling strategy vs Lotus 123https://www.computerhistory.org/excel-lotus-competitionMeet our Guest, Chayton FarleeLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/chaytonfarlee/Need CPE?Get CPE for listening to podcasts with Earmark: https://earmarkcpe.comSubscribe to the Earmark Podcast: https://podcast.earmarkcpe.comGet in TouchThanks for listening and the great reviews!

Picking Robert F. Kennedy Jr., a known vaccine sceptic, as the Secretary for Public Health might not be the most ‘out there' thing the Trump administration has done but it certainly raised some eyebrows. Since his appointment Kennedy has been on a mission to ‘Make America Healthy again' and has set his sights on finding ‘the cure' for Autism. Autism Spectrum Disorder is a neurological and developmental disorder that can affect how someone communicates, socialises, learns and behaves. In the 1980's one study estimated that 4 in 10,000 (1 in 2500) children in Wisconsin had an Autism diagnosis. Recent data from the Centres for Disease control states that 1 in 31 eight year olds in the US have the condition. Why have the numbers gone up? Is it due to environmental toxins as Robert Kennedy suggests or does the answer lie in the counting?

Strange things have been happening to science in the US. An executive order is freezing research, a website with once scientific information now looks kinda like it's advertising a reality show … even milkshakes have been caught in the fray. Milkshakes! On top of this, research projects studying everything from vaccine hesitancy to Covid-19 to climate change have been cut. The Trump administration says that a big reason for the cuts is to stop government waste and boost the economy. Today on the show: What is going on with science in the US right now, and will these cuts ultimately help the economy? To find out, we talk to Nature reporter Max Koslov, virologist Dr. Seema Lakdawala and economist Professor Andrew Fieldhouse.

In episode 690, Megan chats to Danielle Madden about how generative AI uses significant environmental resources and how content creators can use the technology more ethically. Danielle Madden founded Project Meal Plan in 2016 after spending too many lunch breaks searching for mediocre food while working her office job. Her educational background includes a Bachelor's Degree in Environmental Science, and hands-on training as a Seattle Urban Nature Guide. Danielle loves being prepared (especially with food), and is usually the first one to arrive at a gathering with a homemade dish to share. At Project Meal Plan, Danielle focuses on make-ahead food and sharing tools to help others plan their own meals. In this episode, you'll learn how generative AI works, how to understand its environmental impact, and how to implement sustainable practices in business. Key points discussed include: - Generative AI Uses Significant Resources: Data centers consume substantial water and electricity through complex cooling processes. - Water Consumption is Substantial: ChatGPT uses approximately 500 milliliters of fresh water per 20-50 questions. - Environmental Impact Varies: Different AI platforms have varying resource consumption levels, though specifics are not transparent. - Ethical Usage Matters: Content creators should critically evaluate when and how they use AI tools. - Prompt Writing is Key: More specific, detailed prompts can reduce unnecessary AI usage and resource consumption. - Fact-Checking is Essential: Always review and verify AI-generated content for accuracy. - Small Actions Add Up: Implementing sustainable practices in business can create meaningful environmental impact. - Transparency Helps: Consider creating a sustainability policy that acknowledges your commitment to responsible technology use.

TikTok is going to be testing a new crowd-sourced fact-checking system called Footnotes. It's seems similar to the Community Notes systems already in use on other social media, such as X and Facebook. TikTok is also keeping its current fact-checking systems in place. The way these community systems generally work is, say someone makes a post stating "whales are the biggest fish out there." Another user could add a note saying "actually, whales are mammals, and here's a source with more information."Marketplace's Stephanie Hughes spoke with Vanderbilt psychology professor Lisa Fazio about why this model of "citizen fact-checking" is catching on.
