In this episode, we explore the fascinating world of recommender systems and algorithmic fairness with David Liu, Assistant Research Professor at Cornell University's Center for Data Science for Enterprise and Society. David shares insights from his research on how machine learning models can inadvertently create unfairness, particularly for minority and niche user groups, even without any malicious intent. We dive deep into his groundbreaking work on Principal Component Analysis (PCA) and collaborative filtering, examining why these fundamental techniques sometimes fail to serve all users equally. David introduces the concept of "power niche users" - highly active users with specialized interests who generate valuable data that can benefit the entire platform. We discuss his paper "When Collaborative Filtering Is Not Collaborative," which reveals how PCA can over-specialize on popular content while neglecting both niche items and even failing to properly recommend popular artists to new potential fans. David presents solutions through item-weighted PCA and thoughtful data upweighting strategies that can improve both fairness and performance simultaneously, challenging the common assumption that these goals must be in tension. The conversation spans from theoretical insights to practical applications at companies like Meta, offering a comprehensive look at the future of personalized recommendations.

Text us your thoughts!Artificial intelligence has exploded onto the scene with promises of personalized learning, instant feedback, and round-the-clock tutoring. Some teachers say it's transforming how students engage with mathematics. Others worry it's turning problem-solving into copy-and-paste, eroding reasoning, and creating a generation of students who can “get answers” but can't explain them. So today, we're exploring whether AI is a powerful tool that enhances learning? Or just another hindrance for teachers and students? As we explore the question: Is AI helpful in math education?Jed mentioned the book Fairness and Machine Learning Ed mentioned some resources, including:Ed Tech & AI Guidance for Math Leaders - NCSM My Notebook LM on AI Guidance- Notebook LM Common Sense Media resources for families, students, and teachers on understanding AI's impact on Education and Kids AIedu also has great ‘snapshot' convos to weave into your classroom A former NCTM President's Message was mentioned as well You can find Ed Campos on LinkedIn & Instagram: @edcamposjr and check out his non-profit Campo Creativo (@CampoCreativo559)Follow Cal Armstrong on LinkedIn & BlueSky: @calarmstrong.bsky.socialCheck out Jed Williams on online: jedediyah.comListened to the episode?

AI is moving fast in global health and development, but good intentions alone don't guarantee good outcomes. In this episode of High-Impact Growth, we sit down with Genevieve Smith, Founding Director of the Responsible AI Initiative at UC Berkeley's AI Research Lab, to unpack what it really means to build and deploy AI responsibly in contexts that matter most.Drawing on a decade of experience in international development and cutting-edge research on AI bias, Genevieve explains why labeling a project “AI for good” isn't enough. She introduces five critical lenses – fairness, privacy, security, transparency, and accountability – that program managers and product leaders must apply to avoid reinforcing existing inequalities or creating new risks.The conversation explores real-world examples, from AI-driven credit assessments that unintentionally disadvantage women, to the challenges of deploying generative AI in low-resource and multilingual settings. Genevieve also shares emerging alternatives, like data cooperatives, that give communities governance over how their data is used, shifting power toward trust, agency, and long-term impact.This episode offers practical insights for anyone navigating the hype, pressure, and promise of AI in development, and looking to get it right.Responsible AI Initiative – UC Berkeley AI Research Lab – A multidisciplinary initiative advancing research and practice around responsible, trustworthy AI.Mitigating Bias in Artificial Intelligence - A playbook for business leaders who build & use AI to unlock value responsibly & equitablyUC Berkeley AI Research (BAIR) – A leading AI research lab focused on advancing the science and real-world impact of artificial intelligence.Fairness, Accountability, and Transparency (FAccT) Conference – A major interdisciplinary conference on ethical and responsible AI systems.UN Women – An organization referenced in Genevieve's background, focused on gender equality and women's empowerment globally.International Center for Research on Women (ICRW) – A research organization mentioned in the episode, specializing in gender, equity, and inclusive development.Sign up to our newsletter, and stay informed of Dimagi's workWe are on social media - follow us for the latest from Dimagi: LinkedIn, Twitter, Facebook, YoutubeIf you enjoy this show, please leave us a 5-Star Review and share your favorite episodes with friends.

Send Us a Message (include your contact info if you'd like a reply)What if the word “fair” is quietly keeping clients stuck? We dive into the emotional gravity of fairness and show how precise language, neutral validation, and clean reflection can move people from moral courtroom to practical resolution. Guest Evelyn Marley—DCA-certified ADR divorce coach and host of the Fight Less podcast—joins us to unpack how communication tools like silence, mirroring, and micro-reframes lower defensiveness and open pathways to agreement without erasing emotion.In this episode, we explore the distinction between validating feelings and approving positions, and we tackle the confirmation bias that often sways even well-meaning professionals. You'll hear how to translate fairness into interests and needs, keep the focus future-facing, and align choices with a client's best-self vision. We talk through reality-testing, the power of asking “Is it true?”, and why strategic pauses can surface insights that scripted speeches can't. Most importantly, we define “good enough” as a value-aligned, livable threshold—not a surrender—so clients can choose progress without betraying their core.Along the way, we spotlight common language traps that entrench conflict and offer practical prompts you can use today: clarifying what “fair” means to the client, reflecting small shifts that build momentum, and inviting clients to say the unsaid in a safe space. Conflict communication is a learnable skill, and when you change the words, you change the trajectory. Ready to trade fairness debates for better outcomes?

Evelyn draws from mediation training, divorce coaching, and communication studies and her work centers on awareness, boundaries, repair, and language that lowers defensiveness and escalation.She is also the host of the Fight(Less) Podcast, where she interviews experts who help people transform and use conflict management as a skill for repair, growth and deeper connection even during life's difficult challenges.

The measure is whether we tell the truth about the Lamb who's already ended it. John the Baptist pointed to Jesus and said, "Behold, the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world." He said it once. And two thousand years later, we're still saying it. Still pointing. Still witnessing. Still waiting for the fullness of what God's already begun. Subscribe to us on iTunes!

Mat Staver is founder & Chairman of Liberty Counsel. Mat is a constitutional attorney with three landmark cases before the U.S. Supreme Court. He's an author and the host of the radio broadcasts Faith & Freedom and Freedom's Call and the TV broadcast, Freedom Alive. On Tuesday, the U.S. Supreme Court heard oral arguments in two consolidated landmark cases: Little v. Hecox and West Virginia v. B.P.J. These cases determine whether Idaho and West Virginia can ban gender confused males from participating in female sports. The decision will likely have significant implications across America since at least 27 states have similar laws protecting women and girls. Little v. Hecox involves an Idaho law from 2020 called the Fairness in Women's Sports Act. West Virginia v. B.P.J. involves West Virginia's 2021 Save Women's Sports Act. As Mat noted, both of these, "...protect the safety and opportunities of female athletes by barring biological males from female competitive sport teams at public schools and universities." A common thread in these cases is Title IX, which Mat said was, "...to protect and provide opportunities for women in sports." However, when Title IX was established as federal law in 1972, was it based on sex or gender identity? This question is fundamental to the debate as you'll see as Jim provided audio from Justices Samuel Alito, Katanji Brown Jackson and Amy Coney Barrett, along with a tense exchange between Senator Josh Hawley and Dr. Nisha Verma who is an OB/GYN.

Send Us a Message (include your contact info if you'd like a reply)Fair feels righteous, but it quietly keeps so many divorces stuck. We pull back the curtain on why “I just want what's fair” becomes a trap and how a resolution-focused approach creates momentum, protects your energy, and ends conflict sooner. Instead of treating divorce like a moral tribunal, we frame it as a structured exit from a shared legal, financial, and parenting arrangement—one that rewards clear thinking and workable agreements over symbolic victories.We start by separating two often-blurred ideas: fairness is an evaluation; resolution is a process. That single distinction changes the questions you ask and the outcomes you reach. You'll hear how fairness multiplies objections, turns every proposal into a referendum on the past, and collapses time horizons. Then we lay out the resolution metrics that actually matter in mediation and negotiation: durability, conflict exposure, ease of implementation, and long-term autonomy. These criteria help you choose options you may not love but can accept—and acceptance is what unlocks closure.A composite client story brings the shift to life. This is the quiet stall many reasonable people fall into: no yelling, just months of evaluation through a fairness lens. The breakthrough happens with one core question—what happens if you keep negotiating for fairness? Mapping real costs across time, money, emotional bandwidth, and co‑parenting reveals the truth: fairness isn't producing relief. Resolution can. We also take on emotional justice head-on. Divorce processes don't deliver moral verdicts; they deliver exit strategies. Healing belongs in therapy and community, not in your settlement terms.If you're a professional, we show how ADR-aligned divorce coaching teaches decision literacy and helps clients tolerate imperfect outcomes in service of a livable future. If you're navigating your own divorce, you'll leave with practical language, sharper filters, and a redefined vision of success: less escalation, greater stability, and fewer future flashpoints—especially for families with children.

The way we've been approaching workplace fairness might be fundamentally broken. After years of performative diversity initiatives and corporate virtue signaling, many organizations are abandoning DEI altogether—but that doesn't mean the work isn't still needed. The real challenge isn't whether fairness matters, it's how we actually create it. Lily Zheng joins the Made Leader podcast to discuss their new book, Fixing Fairness: Four Tenets to Transform Diversity Backlash into Progress for All. complaining with people like you, and what early leaders can do to create change even without organizational power. Lily breaks down the biggest misconceptions about equity work, reveals why post-2020 DEI initiatives were destined to fail, and provides practical strategies for removing barriers and creating workplaces where everyone can thrive.

Little v. Hecox | 01/13/26 | Docket #: 24-38 24-38 LITTLE, GOVERNOR OF IDAHO V. HECOX DECISION BELOW: 104 F.4th 1061 ORDER OF OCTOBER 20, 2025: RESPONDENT'S REQUEST THAT THE COURT DISMISS THE CASE AS MOOT IS DEFERRED PENDING ORAL ARGUMENT. SEE ACHESON HOTELS, LLC v. LAUFER , 601 U. S. 1, 4 (2023). CERT. GRANTED 7/3/2025 QUESTION PRESENTED: Women and girls have overcome decades of discrimination to achieve a more equal playing field in many arenas of American life-including sports. Yet in some competitions, female athletes have become bystanders in their own sports as male athletes who identify as female have taken the place of their female competitors-on the field and on the winners' podium. The Idaho Legislature addressed that injustice by enacting the Fairness in Women's Sports Act, which ensures that women and girls do not have to compete against men and boys no matter how those men and boys identify. The Act-one of 25 such state laws around the country-is consistent with longstanding government policies preserving women's and girls' sports due to the "average real differences" between the sexes. Clark ex rel. Clark v. Ariz. Interscholastic Ass'n, 695 F.2d 1126, 1131 (9th Cir. 1982). Breaking with this Court's precedents, its own caselaw, other circuit decisions, and biological reality, the Ninth Circuit panel here upheld an injunction against the Act because it prevents "transgender women and girls"-meaning males who identify as women and girls-from competing in "women's student athletics." App.4a-5a. The question presented is: Whether laws that seek to protect women's and girls' sports by limiting participation to women and girls based on sex violate the Equal Protection Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment. LOWER COURT CASE NUMBER: 20-35813, 20-35815
Jordan River—Photo Credit: Wikimedia Commons Jesus didn't start his ministry by going to the halls of power to make deals with the folks in charge. He went to a river where ordinary people were gathering, hungry for change but with no political clout to make it happen. Jesus stood with them in the water. He got muddy with them. He submitted to the same baptism of repentance they were submitting to, even though tradition says he didn't need to repent of anything. Why? Because God's way into the world isn't from the top down. It's from the bottom up. It's from the margins in. It's Emmanuel, God with us, and the "us" isn't the people in the skyboxes, drinking complimentary champagne. It's the people in the cheap seats, drinking over-priced beer. Subscribe to us on iTunes! Sermon text: web | doc

Send Us a Message (include your contact info if you'd like a reply)Fair sounds virtuous, but it's the quiet saboteur of many divorce negotiations. We pull back the curtain on how fairness language derails progress, fuels story stacking, and turns negotiations into a tribunal of the past instead of a plan for the future. When each person holds a private definition of “fair,” the gap widens, defensiveness rises, and workable options get torpedoed—not because they fail the kids or the law, but because they fail a sense of symmetry.We make the case for a different target: good enough. That doesn't mean settling for less; it means designing an agreement that functions under stress, reduces future touch points, and keeps emotional reengagement to a minimum. You'll hear how to stress-test proposals with real-life questions—what happens when communication breaks down, when one parent is tired, or when compliance wobbles—and why agreements should be built for human behavior, not ideal behavior. We also draw a clear boundary: courts and mediation structures allocate responsibility and create enforceable terms; they don't repair emotional inequity. Trying to extract justice from a system built for decisions guarantees frustration.If you're a divorce professional or coach, we share practical tools to help clients move from moral certainty to strategic flexibility, normalize disappointment as part of transition, and measure success by fewer future conflicts. And if you're navigating divorce yourself, this conversation offers a steady off-ramp: stop chasing perfect balance and start building sustainable peace.

Grace replacing grace. Wave after wave of divine generosity. Not scarcity and competition for limited resources. Not "there's not enough to go around, so we have to hoard and protect." Grace upon grace. Abundance. Enough for everybody, especially those the people in charge say aren't worth feeding. That's the economy of the tent.

So bin ich eben! Stefanie Stahls Psychologie-Podcast für alle "Normalgestörten"
Geld ist eines der größten Tabuthemen in Beziehungen und gleichzeitig eines der konfliktträchtigsten. Ob Sparen oder Genießen, Sicherheit oder Freiheit, Fairness oder Abhängigkeit: Beim Thema Geld prallen oft unterschiedliche Werte, Prägungen und Bedürfnisse aufeinander. Schnell geht es dann nicht mehr um Zahlen, sondern um Anerkennung, Kontrolle, Selbstwert oder das Gefühl, gesehen zu werden. In dieser Folge sprechen wir darüber, warum Geld in Partnerschaften so emotional aufgeladen ist, welche Geldmuster wir aus unserer Herkunftsfamilie mitbringen, warum Streit oft an scheinbaren Kleinigkeiten entsteht und wie Paare Wege finden können, fair und offen über Geld zu sprechen, auch bei unterschiedlichen Einkommen, Elternschaft oder ungleicher Care-Arbeit. Außerdem geht es darum, wie klare Absprachen Nähe schaffen können, statt Distanz zu erzeugen.Unsere allgemeinen Datenschutzrichtlinien finden Sie unter https://art19.com/privacy.

Pre-order my new book: https://amzn.to/4oZUgpa The most reinforcing good you can give to a man is sex, and the most reinforcing good you can give to a woman is attention. This asymmetry is responsible for the power imbalances in many exclusive relationships, in which women typically eliminate their competition, but retain their optionality. Fairness and equality aren't the same thing – and what's good for the goose isn't always what's good for the gander. In this episode, I examine the role that sex and attention play in intersexual relationships.

I don't know what the coming year is going to hold. None of us do. But I do know this: there'll be moments when the costs are rising, the pressure's building, and somebody near us gets exposed, and we'll have a choice to make. We can be righteous in a way that doesn't cost us anything. Or we can be righteous the way Joseph was righteous, which means stepping into the line of fire and attaching our names to the people the world would rather shame. And then trusting that Emmanuel is with us in exactly that place. Subscribe to us on iTunes! Sermon text: web | doc

What does it mean to lead a movement? Michael Hurley, a veteran advocate and President of the Ontario Council of Hospital Unions (OCHU/CUPE), joins Amie Archibald-Varley, The Gritty Nurse to discuss the grit required to protect the healthcare workforce. In this high-stakes episode, we pull back the curtain on what it truly takes to fight for frontline workers. Michael emphasizes that the current crisis in recruitment and retention isn't an accident—it's a policy failure. He highlights his work on the front lines of union leadership, focusing on the necessity of staffing ratios and the urgent fight to end violence against staff. From the history of illegal strikes to the modern-day battle against privatization, Michael illustrates how his work as Union President is centered on one goal: empowering workers to reclaim their profession through community mobilization and bold, collective action. Michael shares his transformative journey from healthcare worker to a fearless union leader, revealing why sometimes the most effective path to change requires the courage to take collective action. Michael breaks down the front-line battles he leads every day, including: The Blueprint for Staffing: Why mandated ratios are the only cure for a collapsing system. Holding the Line: Michael's fierce advocacy against the quiet creep of healthcare privatization. Safety as a Right: Addressing the "silent epidemic" of violence against healthcare workers and the legislative teeth needed to stop it. The Power of the Union: How Michael mobilizes communities to turn individual frustration into unstoppable collective power. This is a masterclass in advocacy for any nurse who has ever felt unheard. WHY ONTARIO NEEDS SAFE NURSE STAFFING LEVELS (OCHU Report) https://ochu.on.ca/wp-content/uploads/2025/08/Safe-nurse-staffing-Report_ENG_Final_WEB.pdf More about Micheal Hurley Michael Hurley has been a hospital worker and a CUPE member since 1977. He was fired and convicted of contempt of court during the illegal 1981 Ontario hospital strike. He has been the President of the Ontario Council of Hospital Unions since 1990. He is also the first Vice-President of CUPE Ontario as well as Regional Vice-President on CUPE's National Executive Board for Ontario. He is the proud father of two daughters. https://ochu.on.ca/history/ https://cupe.ca/michael-hurley-regional-vice-president-ontario About Ontario Council of Hospital Union (OCHU) OCHU was founded in 1982 following a very difficult hospital strike and forced arbitration decisions that were unfair to CUPE members. The seven CUPE regions and CUPE staff worked on a plan to improve the bargaining process, communications with members and locals, and the coordination between regions. They also recognized the need for the existence of a permanent decision-making authority between collective agreements. The plan developed was received favourably by all locals and led to the founding of the Ontario Council of Hospital Unions. About CUPE We've been together for over 50 years. We do different jobs that require different skills. We are diverse – from all sorts of backgrounds in all corners of the country. But we're connected by a common purpose. Together we've fought for the things that matter most. Fairness. Equality. Dignity. There's still much to be done before we have a truly just society. Empowering young workers, women's rights, racial equality, dignity for the disabled, as well as justice for First Nations, Métis and Inuit peoples. We have made Canada a better place for millions of workers and their families. We will keep fighting for a Canada where ALL workers have a decent wage, retirement security, dignity and a safe workplace. As we move forward, we are undertaking an unprecedented initiative to speak with every rank and file member in order to re-create our movement. We are 800,000 public service workers. We will back each other up. We will speak with one voice. We are CUPE. * Listen on Apple Podcasts – : The Gritty Nurse Podcast on Apple Apple Podcasts https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/the-gritty-nurse/id1493290782 * Watch on YouTube – https://www.youtube.com/@thegrittynursepodcast Stay Connected: Website: grittynurse.com Instagram: @grittynursepod TikTok: @thegrittynursepodcast X (Twitter): @GrittyNurse Collaborations & Inquiries: For sponsorship opportunities or to book Amie for speaking engagements, visit: grittynurse.com/contact Thank you to Hospital News for being a collaborative partner with the Gritty Nurse! www.hospitalnews.com
Welcome to The Chopping Block — where crypto insiders Haseeb Qureshi, Tom Schmidt, Tarun Chitra, and Robert Leshner chop it up about the latest in crypto. This episode features special guest Vladimir Novakovski, Founder of Lighter, joining the crew to unpack the fallout from October 10's historic perpetuals liquidation event and the ADL research that sparked a public clash with Hyperliquid. The panel digs into how auto-deleveraging really works, why these failures were long hidden inside centralized exchanges, and what decentralized perps must fix to truly outperform TradFi. The conversation then turns to the intensifying perp wars. With Lighter's zero-fee trading model, premium tiers for pros, and a looming token launch, the hosts debate whether crypto is headed for a Robinhood-style fee reset, why TVL may matter more than volume, and how RWAs, FX perps, and cross-margining are reshaping market structure. Finally, they tackle the growing divide between tokens and equity as devcos get acquired and tokenholders are left behind. Perps are evolving, incentives are breaking — let's get into it.

Welcome back to Blended! Today, we're going full circle with the show. We're going back to our roots – because we're talking about DEI. When Sarah founded Blended back in 2020, we were in the trenches of the pandemic. Everything was changing – within businesses, people's personal lives, within society as a whole. And it felt more important than ever to talk about people. To share stories and get to know each other better, to learn and to really think about what we wanted things to look like for ourselves when the pandemic was over. And the root of all of that was diversity, equity, inclusion, equality – community. Now, five years later, a lot has changed. And so has how many of us think about diversity and inclusion. Political changes have seen many organizations publicly pull back from visible DEI efforts and, internally, scale back or completely retire diversity goals altogether. And that's a problem. For many people, it's a step – or more than a step – backwards. So, as we look to 2026, what is DEI going to look like? And what's that impact of that on people, businesses and culture in general? Our guests will be diving into all of that today. IN THIS EPISODE: [01.23] Introductions to our Blended panelists. · Sue – Founder and CEO of Origen Air · Sheri – Sourcing, procurement and supply chain leader "DEI is so important to me. Throughout my journey as an entrepreneur, it's become even more apparent. It seemed like we were getting to the point of equality, but as I started my own company and went through not only fundraising but also procurement, it became very clear that we still have a long way to go." Sue [06.09] The group discuss what the current DEI landscape looks like, some of the biggest changes they've seen this year, and what we might expect from DEI in 2026. · Guarded, 'behind closed doors' · Competing narratives · Strategic · 'Permission to backtrack' · News ways to make progress · Reframing of DEI programs · Being less externally vocal · DEI folded into wider social governance programs · Integration of data analytics and technology · DEI specialists stepping back/reframing their value proposition · Firing of DEI employees · Squeezed DEI budgets · Negative links to other issues, eg. Sustainability, woman-owned · Words we use – diversity vs inclusion · Organizations re-thinking core values · Rebuilding DEI · DEI built in, rather than separate · Advocacy · Swinging pendulum of support for DEI · Transformation "It used to be something that lit a lot of people up, it was colorful. Now when I think about what the landscape looks like, it's muted and gray." Sheri "I don't think it's fading out, it's just transforming. It's going to look different. It's going to be more of a quiet, strategic commitment." Sheri [29.18] The panel dive deeper into allyship, why it's important, and how we communicate what we want and need from allies. · Mixed messages · Men and women are not opponents · Representation · Working together/collaboration · What men can do practically in the workplace · Creating safe spaces [39.45] The group discuss the public dialogue around DEI in light of current political influence, and how that's impacting people, organizations and their commitment to DEI. · Common misconceptions · Access to opportunity · Privilege · Role of leadership · Responsibility · Fear · Making excuses · Scarcity · Fairness · Ego · Women vs women · Doing things quietly vs loudly · Metrics/measurement/KPIs – what does success look like? · Education · Redefining what diversity and inclusion actually means "The misconception that I've been hearing is that we're asking to 'take,' people are worried that things are going to be taken from them. But that's not what DEI is about." Sue "We're not asking for special treatment – we're just asking to be seen and heard. We don't want you to hire us if we're not the right person. We don't want you to buy from us if we don't have the best product… We just want the opportunity to be a consideration." Sue "If the checklists and the targets go away, you're not boasting about it publicly, and it's all done quietly, how are we going to know if we're making progress?" Sheri [01.06.25] The panel sum up their thoughts from today's discussion and share their advice for approaching DEI issues in 2026.

Getting even isn't the goal—opening your heart is. In this powerful sixth message of the "Kingdom Paradox" series, Pastor Ryan reveals why God sometimes feels distant even when we haven't done anything majorly wrong, and reminds us that the measurement tool we use for others becomes the measurement tool we're stuck with for God. From "bless your heart" in the American South to the first-century marketplace, this teaching will challenge you to ask the hard question: Is my heart clenched or open? Whether you've been holding grudges and expecting to get even or ready to release judgment and trust God with justice—this message is packed with biblical truth, honest vulnerability, and a kingdom truth that will change everything: Tightfisted living creates tightfisted spirituality. What we give is what we receive. Scripture Reference: Luke 6:27-38 Big Idea: The measurement tool we use for others becomes the measurement tool we're stuck with for God. Our capacity to receive God's love doesn't change His supply—it changes our ability to hold it. Key Quote: "We don't feel far from God because we stop believing in God. We feel far from God because something in our life has gradually started closing our heart to receive it." ⸻ Topics in this Message: Why God sometimes feels distant (and it's not always obvious) The small adjustment that fixes your spiritual swing Love your enemies: choosing agape love over feelings Why "bless your heart" means something different in the South How relationships work: the life we experience is shaped by the heart posture we choose The first-century marketplace and the measurement tool What we give is what we receive (not transactional, but capacity) How judgment, condemnation, and bitterness close our hearts Four practical steps to enlarge your capacity again +++++++ Join us for church this Sunday.

The Colorado Beetle which is a major threat to potato crops has been officially eradicated from the UK. It was last identified on a farm in Kent in 2023.

In this episode, we examine why arts education often maintains higher standards even as liberal arts programs shrink in schools and universities, and what students lose when curriculum narrows to job training. We discuss how platforms like X are adding country-of-origin labels to identify foreign influence and bot activity, and highlight the “foolishness of the week” involving the controversy over the “world's strongest woman” and the broader questions it raises about biology and competitive fairness. We turn to Australia's proposal to ban social media for kids under sixteen, exploring the practical limits of age verification, the tension between parental authority and government regulation, and why teens remain vulnerable to algorithmic manipulation. We close by considering where society should draw age boundaries, how platforms shape behavior, and what genuine responsibility looks like in the digital age. 00:00 Introduction and Overview 00:29 The State of Arts Education Today 02:57 Why Liberal Arts Are Disappearing From Schools 05:45 What a Liberal Arts Education Actually Provides 06:59 X Adds Country-of-Origin Labels 09:56 Foolishness of the Week: “World's Strongest Woman” 11:31 Biology, Fairness, and Competition in Sports 17:51 Age Rules and Arbitrary Lines 20:53 Australia's Proposed Social Media Ban for Under-16s 23:21 Why Age Verification Won't Work in Practice 26:08 Should the Government Regulate Children's Social Media Use? 27:32 Algorithmic Bubbles and Teen Vulnerability 33:45 96% of Australian Children Ages 10-15 Use Social Media 34:55 Where to Draw the Line: 13, 16, or 18? 39:34 Parental Responsibility vs. Government Control 46:34 Closing Thoughts on Freedom, Parenting, and Policy Learn more about your ad choices.

In this very fun episode, Forrest and Elizabeth discuss how to get on the same team in a relationship. They explore how conditions of worth, masking, and developmental trauma can get in the way of showing up authentically, and how falling into common relationship roles can reinforce this.
