Podcasts about Fall

Want to significantly improve your chances of getting a good night's sleep? There is one surprisingly simple thing you can do during the day that may actually help you sleep better that night. And no, it doesn't involve exercise, meditation or giving up your phone. This episode begins with what it is and why it may work. https://sleepopolis.com/news/make-bed-better-sleep/ Every language and every culture has swear words. We're taught as children not to say them, yet somehow we all learn exactly what they are. So why does swearing exist in the first place? And why are certain words considered so much more powerful and offensive than others? It turns out that swearing serves some interesting purposes — and under the right circumstances, it may even have some benefits. Timothy Jay is one of the world's leading authorities on the psychology of swearing. He is professor emeritus of psychology at Massachusetts College of Liberal Arts and author of Cursing in America (https://amzn.to/3CMIs36) and Why We Curse (https://amzn.to/46hZ2FN). Listen as he reveals where our swear words come from, why they have such emotional punch and what happens when we use them. Confidence is one of those qualities that seems easy to recognize in other people and much harder to summon up in yourself — especially at the exact moment you need it. Maybe you need to speak up, walk into a room full of strangers, ask for something you want or handle a difficult conversation. So can you actually become more confident on demand? Selena Rezvani says you can, and the techniques are surprisingly practical. Selena is a speaker, journalist and author of Quick Confidence: Be Authentic, Create Connections and Make Bold Bets on Yourself (https://amzn.to/43WVJ59). She joins me with simple strategies you can use to quiet self-doubt, appear more confident and actually feel more confident when it counts. Could changing the expression on your face actually change the way you feel? There is a remarkably simple thing you can do with your face right now that may give your mood a little lift. Listen as I explain what to do — and the intriguing reason it appears to work. Source: Dr. Stephanie McClellan, author of The Ultimate Stress Relief Plan for Women (https://amzn.to/3NLj04s).

The Fall of Baghdad In this solo episode of the Explaining History Podcast, we continue our exploration of Eugene Rogan's masterful The Fall of the Ottomans, examining the British campaign to capture Baghdad in 1917 – a victory that helped redeem the catastrophic humiliation of Kut.The surrender at Kut in April 1916 had been one of the worst disasters in British military history. Thousands of British and Indian soldiers, starved into submission, were marched into captivity and then worked to death building Ottoman railways. The British government was deeply wary of any further advances in Mesopotamia. But the Mesopotamian Expeditionary Force, smarting from the stigma of defeat, was determined to score a victory.Drawing on Rogan's narrative, we trace the campaign from the cautious advance on the Tigris to the fall of Baghdad. General Maud, a commander who had been wounded in France and was the last man off the beach at Gallipoli, was determined to break the Ottoman defences. Despite orders from London that barred an advance on the city, Maud pushed forward – driven in part by a superstitious belief that 13 was his lucky number.The Ottoman Sixth Army, worn down by illness, desertion, and casualties, was desperately understrength. Halil Pasha had been forced to redeploy forces to confront a Russian threat on the Persian frontier, leaving Baghdad dangerously exposed. When the British finally broke through at the Shumran Bend, the Ottoman retreat became a rout – pursued by British gunboats that wreaked havoc on exhausted and demoralised Turkish soldiers.The recapture of Kut was a symbolic victory. But the fall of Baghdad, which followed shortly after, was the first major British victory in the Middle East – a triumph that had eluded them since the beginning of the war.Topics covered:The disaster at Kut and its aftermathGeneral Maud's command and his superstitious beliefsThe Russian threat on the Persian frontierThe battle for Kut (December 1916 – February 1917)The breakthrough at Shumran BendThe Ottoman retreat and the naval pursuitThe symbolic recapture of KutBritish fears of Muslim insurrection in IndiaEugene Rogan's The Fall of the Ottomans is available from all good bookshops.

Crystal Hincks generated more than $250,000 in consulting engagements in a single month.But that result came after months of experimenting with lead generation strategies that worked... just not well enough.Listening tours. White papers. Webinars.She started getting in front of more decision makers.But those conversations still weren't consistently turning into paid consulting engagements.In Episode 286, Melisa Liberman sits down with Crystal to unpack the full journey behind the $250K result: the lead generation strategies she tried, what she learned from each experiment, what was breaking down between conversations and paid work, and what finally changed.Crystal shares what she discovered about her sales process, how she changed the way she showed up in conversations with prospective clients, and why that shift mattered.Then she built a lead generation initiative around how her buyers already behave.That experiment generated more than 100 applications and led to more than $250,000 in paid consulting engagements in one month.But this episode isn't about copying Crystal's tactic.It's about the process she used to get there.How do you know whether to keep going with a lead generation strategy, refine it, or replace it?How do you stay with an experiment long enough to learn from it without wasting months on something that isn't working?And how do you recognize when the problem isn't your lead generation tactic at all, but something else in the way you're creating and converting consulting opportunities?Crystal shares what she learned from the strategies that didn't work, the ones that worked only partially, and the shifts that ultimately brought the pieces together.If you're working on lead generation but still wondering why your effort isn't translating into enough consulting clients or paid opportunities, this episode will help you see what to evaluate next instead of assuming you simply need to do more.Timestamps for Key Moments:[00:00] Introduction to Crystal Hincks and why her story matters[00:02] Companion resource: Lead Gen Sprint at www.ConsultantSprint.com [00:20] Getting stuck in the friend zone and the premature proposal problem [00:29] The mindset shift: from helpful vendor to expert and peer [00:34] Value Made Visible: the initiative that created $250K in one month [00:41] What the experiment taught her about lead generation [00:45] Advice for consultants who are experimenting but not yet seeing resultsResources Mentioned:Companion Resource: The Consultant's Lead Gen Sprint.

Nick opens with a personal update on the shift from summer chaos into early fall hunting season, then moves into two connected stories about wild game, generosity, and community. He reflects on being gifted Great Lakes salmon and lake trout, turning part of it into smoked jerky, and how that exchange strengthened a friendship. He also previews an upcoming New Jersey black bear hunt and a new venison donation project that uses hunters' harvests to help feed others. Key Topics Balancing school, work, family, and hunting preparation as fall approaches Why Nick is keeping his current archery setup unchanged Repacking his kill kit and bringing a paperback book into the tree stand Preparing for an October black bear hunt in New Jersey with Mitchell Shirk Processing and preserving gifted Great Lakes salmon and lake trout Making smoked fish jerky using a brown sugar and salt cure Smoking fish with charcoal and black cherry wood The practical process of trimming fillets and removing pin bones How gifting wild game can create friendships and strengthen community Using salmon as part of a practical meal-prep routine The Doe Dash venison donation concept Turning donated venison into food for local food banks Using recipes to help families enjoy venison beyond burgers and chili Nick's quick 30-minute meatballs and his wife's grandfather's gyoza recipe The role hunters can play in providing high-quality protein to people in need Episode Summary Preparing for Fall Hunting SeasonNick begins by describing the transition into September in Michigan. With school back in session, a nine-to-five job, children, and personal projects all competing for attention, he is learning to manage his time more intentionally.Fall is also the season when outdoor pursuits begin to accelerate. Nick talks about preparing for Michigan's archery opener and getting his bow back out to start practicing. His equipment has been working well, so he is taking a simple approach: if something is not broken, there is no reason to fix it.One small change he is considering is bringing a paperback book into the tree stand. Rather than spending downtime scrolling on his phone, he wants to use that time to read and gain a different perspective while remaining immersed in the outdoors.A New Jersey Black Bear HuntNick shares exciting news about an upcoming trip to New Jersey to hunt black bear with Mitchell Shirk of the Pennsylvania Woodsman.The trip is already moving forward, with flights and lodging arranged. Mitchell has been handling much of the scouting, baiting, and stand preparation, while Nick plans to bring his saddle because it allows him to sit comfortably for longer periods.The hunt will be a completely new experience for Nick. In addition to pursuing a new species in unfamiliar country, he will also have to think through the logistics of processing, transporting, and preserving a bear while traveling by plane. He hopes to bring the hide home for a rug and expects to rely heavily on Mitchell's knowledge of local processors and taxidermists. The Gift of Great Lakes FishThe central story begins with several fillets of Great Lakes king salmon and lake trout sitting in Nick's freezer.The important part is not simply the fish. It is how the fish came to him. Nick received the fish from Jason and Britley, friends he met through their sons' soccer team. Jason is an avid outdoorsman who spends much of his time waterfowl hunting and fishing on the Great Lakes. After Jason and his fishing team won a tournament, he found himself with more fish than his household could use because Britley has a serious fish allergy.Jason reached out to Nick, knowing that Nick enjoys both cooking and processing wild game. Nick offered to take some of the fish, prepare it, and turn part of it into jerky so Jason could continue enjoying the harvest without wasting it.Processing Lake Trout for Smoked Jerky Nick explains the practical work involved in preparing the fish. The fillets had already been scaled, so he focused on trimming them and removing the pin bones.He used needle-nose pliers to locate and pull the bones from the larger fillets. Some of the bones were substantial, especially in the bigger fish.Nick also discusses the differences between the fish. Lake trout has a richer, oilier character than king salmon, which gives it a stronger and more distinctive flavor. Instead of viewing that as a negative, Nick embraced the uniqueness of the fish and found that its higher fat content worked well for jerky.The Cure and Smoking ProcessFor the first batch, Nick followed a method inspired by Hank Shaw. The cure consisted primarily of brown sugar and salt. Because fish absorbs salt quickly, he allowed the fillets to cure for roughly six to eight hours before rinsing them and preparing them for the smoker.A problem arose when Nick discovered that his smoker had developed a rust issue. Rather than abandoning the project, he adapted by using cooling racks on his charcoal grill.He also used black cherry wood from a storm-damaged tree in his backyard. The combination of charcoal and homemade wood chunks created the smoke needed to transform the fish.Nick describes how the smoke changed the appearance of the bright red fish, giving it a warm, tan color while preserving the visual appeal of the meat. The result was not just flavorful; it was something that looked appetizing before it was even tasted. Sharing the Finished ProductAfter reducing the moisture and concentrating the flavor, Nick packaged the finished fish and gave it back to Jason.The amount was noticeably smaller than the original fresh fish because of the water loss during smoking, but the value of the gift had increased. Jason could now enjoy his catch in a preserved form, and he had a product that was easier to store and use.This created a meaningful exchange. Jason had gifted Nick the fish, and Nick returned part of that bounty in a new form. The interaction became more than food preservation. It became a way for two outdoorsmen to share skills, effort, and appreciation.The Community Built Through Wild GameNick connects this experience to the broader tradition of sharing wild game.Hunters and anglers often trade venison, duck breasts, fish, and other harvests with one another. Someone may have extra duck but no fish. Another person may have more fish than their family can use but would gladly trade for venison.These exchanges create relationships. They help people use more of the animals they harvest, reduce waste, and give friends an opportunity to experience food they may not otherwise have access to.Nick reflects on the familiar saying: Copy “If you give a man a fish, he eats for a day. If you teach a man to fish, he eats for a lifetime.” For Nick, the saying leaves out something important. When you give someone a fish, you may also create gratitude, conversation, friendship, and a desire to share in return. Fish as Everyday Meal Preparation Not all of the gifted fish became jerky. Nick also used some of it for family meals and meal preparation.He describes preparing salmon with rice and avocado as a balanced lunch containing protein, carbohydrates, and healthy fats. Having prepared meals available helped him avoid relying on fast food during a busy workday.This connects the gift of fish to another benefit: wild game and locally harvested food can become part of a practical everyday routine, not just a special occasion meal.From Friendship to OutreachThe conversation then expands beyond the exchange between Nick and Jason.

Nick offered to take some of the fish, prepare it, and turn part of it into jerky so Jason could continue enjoying the harvest without wasting it.Processing Lake Trout for Smoked Jerky Nick explains the practical work involved in preparing the fish. The fillets had already been scaled, so he focused on trimming them and removing the pin bones.He used needle-nose pliers to locate and pull the bones from the larger fillets. Some of the bones were substantial, especially in the bigger fish.Nick also discusses the differences between the fish. Lake trout has a richer, oilier character than king salmon, which gives it a stronger and more distinctive flavor. Instead of viewing that as a negative, Nick embraced the uniqueness of the fish and found that its higher fat content worked well for jerky.The Cure and Smoking ProcessFor the first batch, Nick followed a method inspired by Hank Shaw. The cure consisted primarily of brown sugar and salt. Because fish absorbs salt quickly, he allowed the fillets to cure for roughly six to eight hours before rinsing them and preparing them for the smoker.A problem arose when Nick discovered that his smoker had developed a rust issue. Rather than abandoning the project, he adapted by using cooling racks on his charcoal grill.He also used black cherry wood from a storm-damaged tree in his backyard. The combination of charcoal and homemade wood chunks created the smoke needed to transform the fish.Nick describes how the smoke changed the appearance of the bright red fish, giving it a warm, tan color while preserving the visual appeal of the meat. The result was not just flavorful; it was something that looked appetizing before it was even tasted. Sharing the Finished ProductAfter reducing the moisture and concentrating the flavor, Nick packaged the finished fish and gave it back to Jason.The amount was noticeably smaller than the original fresh fish because of the water loss during smoking, but the value of the gift had increased. Jason could now enjoy his catch in a preserved form, and he had a product that was easier to store and use.This created a meaningful exchange. Jason had gifted Nick the fish, and Nick returned part of that bounty in a new form. The interaction became more than food preservation. It became a way for two outdoorsmen to share skills, effort, and appreciation.The Community Built Through Wild GameNick connects this experience to the broader tradition of sharing wild game.Hunters and anglers often trade venison, duck breasts, fish, and other harvests with one another. Someone may have extra duck but no fish. Another person may have more fish than their family can use but would gladly trade for venison.These exchanges create relationships. They help people use more of the animals they harvest, reduce waste, and give friends an opportunity to experience food they may not otherwise have access to.Nick reflects on the familiar saying: Copy “If you give a man a fish, he eats for a day. If you teach a man to fish, he eats for a lifetime.” For Nick, the saying leaves out something important. When you give someone a fish, you may also create gratitude, conversation, friendship, and a desire to share in return. Fish as Everyday Meal Preparation Not all of the gifted fish became jerky. Nick also used some of it for family meals and meal preparation.He describes preparing salmon with rice and avocado as a balanced lunch containing protein, carbohydrates, and healthy fats. Having prepared meals available helped him avoid relying on fast food during a busy workday.This connects the gift of fish to another benefit: wild game and locally harvested food can become part of a practical everyday routine, not just a special occasion meal.From Friendship to OutreachThe conversation then expands beyond the exchange between Nick and Jason.

Elisa Tamarkin, an English prof of high repute (Anglophilia and Apropos of Something: A History of Irrelevance and Relevance) at UC Berkeley, joins RTB to discuss Done in a Day: Telex from the Fall of Saigon. It is an extended reflection on the last day of the Vietnam War, set against the imminent disappearance of war coverage in the nation's city newspapers, and framed through her own stepfather's experience covering the war. Tamarkin anatomizes curious forms of self-delusion that flourished in the American Me generation and traces the subtle trajectory that stretching from the journalistic autonomy of the mid-century to the "embedded reporters" of the US war in Iraq to today's implacable governmental hostility to truthful reportage. Back in the 1960's Hannah Arendt and others warned that bubbles of non-information and delusive self-deceit got propagated within the corridors of power and out in the larger public realm. Now cloudy misinformation is the property of a near-ubiquitous social media realm whose corrosive effect (the power to unthink) is far less circumscribed.

Text us your questions for apologist and pastor Robby Lashua!Northwest Christian School's annual student-centered, Gospel-reading campaign is called REDLETTERCHALLENGE.ORG.And, we tend to get so excited about all of it -- students, the Gospels, and the art and science of inspiring students to develop a daily devotional discipline -- that things tend to get carried away!That's certainly the case with Fall 2026.  Launched in elementary chapel on Wednesday, August 26th, REDLETTERCHALLENGE.ORG invites students into the daily discipline of time in God's word.  We read one chapter per day, working our way through the four gospels, over the course of three months.  Along the way, as we work to inspire a love of daily time with Jesus, we provide extrinsic reminders of the intrinsic worth that such a commitment can make in their lives!To assist our families with this process, as we move through the Red Letter Challenge, each day for the next several weeks, we're going to publish a podcast episode within the Kingdom Culture Conversations venue, that features Geoff Brown reading that day's gospel chapter.For more info, and to join the fun, please visit REDLETTERCHALLENGE.ORG.

Summer is OVER crusaders, WELCOME FALL! Snooki finally had her first drink post-surgery, meanwhile Joey is sipping on the streets, popping off at the US Open, and spending the last remnants of summer on a yacht. Snooki kicks off product show and tell with a secret gift in the mail from none other than Kristin Cavallari’s “Uncommon James.” While Joey shows off his new defense mechanism against the ravaging fruit flies in his kitchen. These are the products of adult dreams. Things are heating up in Hollywood as Leah Remini is set to join the Season 16 cast of ‘The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills.’ Speaking of queens, Celine Dion is kicking off her final tour and it’s already selling out. And if our hearts weren’t already heavy losing Hayden Panettiere, we’ve lost a legend in Tim Curry and our North Star in Dolly Parton. Joey reminds us to celebrate the people we love everyday, sharing the kind and wise words of Dolly and the immense impact she made on all of us. As the September Shift makes its move, Snooki and Joey are in full preparation for Fall, making their way to Home Goods and TJ Maxx. Joey predicts a ‘90s nostalgia Christmas theme takeover as we’re craving some home and comfort. We’re talking plastic Santas and tacky colorful lights. We’re here for the kitschy tchotchkes and done with over-romanticizing beige luxury. And no home fall transformation is complete without binging ‘Gilmore Girls’ or ‘The Craft.’ Finally, Bethenny Frankel made it to Burning Man, as if the besties are over the heat, they just have to say, they’re not festival people, but good luck Bethenny.

Triggerwarnung: In dieser Folge geht es um Depressionen, Suizid und häusliche Gewalt Als die 24-jährige Phoebe Handsjuk tot im Müllraum ihres Apartmenthauses in Melbourne gefunden wird, scheint für die Polizei schnell klar, was passiert ist: Phoebe soll im 12. Stock selbst in einen Müllschacht geklettert und mehr als 30 Meter in die Tiefe gestürzt sein. Doch ihre Familie kann diese Erklärung nicht glauben. Zu viele Spuren wurden nicht untersucht, zu viele Fragen bleiben offen. Und dann stirbt Jahre später eine weitere junge Frau, die mit demselben Mann zusammen war wie Phoebe. In dieser Folge „Mordlust – Verbrechen und ihre Hintergründe“ geht es um einen Todesfall, bei dem bis heute um die richtige Erklärung gerungen wird. Wir sprechen darüber, wie Depressionen und Suchterkrankungen das Suizidrisiko beeinflussen und darüber, was bei Ermittlungen passieren kann, wenn das Wissen um solche Erkrankungen den Blick auf einen ungeklärten Tod prägt.

Fall is here, and with it comes the rush: business, kids, travel, snow prep, holidays, health, marriage, and a calendar that fills up way too fast. Liz and I sit down to talk about what busy season really looks like behind the scenes, what our family needs from us right now, and how we're deciding what deserves a yes and what needs a no. Because the goal isn't just to survive the next 90 days. It's to make sure we don't wish away another season of our lives.

Wright sits down with Dr. Michael “Mike” Manahan, author of The Great Contest, for a conversation about faith, trials, biblical truth, and the transforming work of God.Dr. Manahan brings an unusual combination of theological and scientific training to the discussion. His academic background includes mathematics and physics, nuclear engineering and physics, and advanced study at MIT, alongside a master's degree in theology. He also shares from decades of ministry experience, including 36 years serving as a volunteer prison chaplain. At the heart of the conversation is a challenging biblical question: Why does God test His people?Drawing from James' teaching to “count it all joy” when believers face trials, Dr. Manahan explains his view that the tests and “contests” found throughout Scripture are part of God's work of developing character, producing sanctification, and preparing His people for His Kingdom. The conversation traces this theme from the Garden of Eden through figures in the Old and New Testaments. Dr. Manahan also discusses several major theological themes addressed in The Great Contest, including:Why the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil was present in EdenThe biblical purpose of testing, trials, and sufferingHow adversity can become an instrument of spiritual transformationThe reality of hell and the importance of proclaiming the full GospelWhy Genesis 1–3 is foundational to understanding the biblical storyCreation versus evolution and the Big BangThe first and second laws of thermodynamicsThe relationship between scientific inquiry and Christian faithHumanity's ultimate purpose of glorifying GodWhy believers should be able to look back and see evidence of spiritual growthT.S. and Dr. Manahan also emphasize that Jesus Christ can reach anyone, regardless of a person's past, and that the believer's life must remain rooted in the truth of God's Word. Dr. Manahan leaves listeners with a powerful perspective: trials should not merely be viewed as obstacles to escape. They can become evidence of God actively shaping character and preparing His people for what lies ahead.Key Scripture Themes MentionedJames 1 — Counting trials as joy and understanding their role in spiritual development.Genesis 1–3 — God as Creator, God's original intention for humanity, the Fall, and the beginning of humanity's need for redemption.Isaiah 43 — Humanity created for the glory of God.Psalm 115:1 — Glory belonging not to us, but to the name of the Lord.Matthew 10:28 — Jesus' warning concerning judgment and the reality of hell.Keywords / TagsDr Michael Manahan, Michael Manahan, The Great Contest, Kingdom Cross Roads Podcast, Kingdom Crossroads Podcast, TS Wright, CPE Summer 2026, Christian podcast, Christian author, biblical trials, why God allows trials, God tests believers, trials and tribulations, count it all joy, James 1, Christian suffering, sanctification, spiritual growth, Christian theology, biblical theology, creation versus evolution, creationism, Big Bang theory, thermodynamics and creation, science and faith, Genesis 1, Genesis 2, Genesis 3, Garden of Eden, Fall of Man, biblical creation, reality of hell, Christian apologetics, prison ministry, Christian discipleship, glory of God, Kingdom of God, Jesus Christ, biblical truthCall to ActionIf this conversation challenged you to see your trials differently, share this episode with someone who needs encouragement today.

What guidelines should coaches follow in using (and not using) AI? AI is here to stay, and we have to adjust. Coaches who niche down to one specialty become replaceable, while those who bring their full constellation of experience become irreplaceable. In this episode, you'll learn three waves of AI use for coaches, along with the practical AI tools she has created to perform specific tasks on her team. You'll learn about the new app that came from her personal history of childhood trafficking and coercive control. Join us to learn more!Dr. Lisa Turner is the founder of CET Freedom and the creator of a suite of AI tools that help coaches and practitioners make the invisible visible. A Ph.D. engineer in mathematical modeling who transitioned into a consciousness and transformation specialist, she has spent over 20 years training coaches and practitioners. She builds AI that augments their work rather than replacing it. Her TEDx talk, "How AI Can Free Us From Invisible Control,” grew out of her experience of coercive control and her conviction that there is always an algorithm underneath human patterns, if you know how to find it. Known as the “Rational Mystic” for bridging engineering precision and deep inner work, she was recently named number 10 in TechRound's Top 50 Women in Tech and Startups. As the author of five books, she helps coaches hear what their clients aren't saying and shows clients the patterns they can't yet see for themselves. Show Highlights:Understanding the “Venn Diagram of You” (There may not be another person with the same “circles” of expertise as you. You are irreplaceable. Don't niche down; niche OUT.)The big question: “Do your clients think they can replace you, their coach, with AI?”The 3 waves of AI: content creation, agentic AI, and pattern-revealing AIHow coaches can use AI tools to better the client experience.The difference between “made by AI” and “made with AI”Try Lisa's tool, BeliefScan, for free analysis of your sales conversations.

Mentioned in this episode:Mentor ProgramIf you're working toward your ACC or PCC credential, or if it's time to recertify your ACC mentor, coaching isn't just a requirement on a checklist. It's one of the most transformative investments you can make in yourself and your coaching. I've taught or mentored over 2000 coaches, and I hear the same thing again and again. I came because I had to, and I am so glad that I did. Coaches tell me they walk away with renewed energy, deeper confidence and a community of peers who genuinely support each other. Here's what you need to know right now. Mentor coaching must span a minimum of three months, so the time to start is not when your credential is just about to expire. And if you complete your hours in 2026, you get ahead of the upcoming ICF changes, which means peace of mind along with skill development. My fall cohort is already filling up. Every group is capped at ten. It's small, personal, and powerful. If you've been waiting for the right time, this is it. So head over to Star Coach Show.

This month, on Laura Flanders & Friends, we're taking a closer look at criminal justice—through the lens of abolition, accountability, and the power of the creative arts to tell fuller, truer stories.  This week we'll explore a new documentary, CYCLE, that's breaking the silence around police killings. Subscribe to Laura on Substack:  https://lauraflanders.substack.com/ Description: Would we know from our media that over 1,000 people are killed by police every year in the U.S.? The stories of George Floyd and Breonna Taylor are exceptions, but for the victims we don't hear about, there's CYCLE. The newly-released investigative feature documentary from LionArt Media focuses on the 2019 killing of Ty'rese West, an 18-year-old Black teenager from Racine, Wisconsin who was shot to death after being pulled over by a Mount Pleasant police officer for riding a bicycle with no headlights. No videos were taken, the details of West's death were withheld from the community and the subsequent police report. Made in close collaboration with West's mother, Monique West, the film follows the story of Ty'rese's death and the lawsuit that ensued. CYCLE is an invitation, “. . . to interrupt the silence that follows so many cases that never go viral — cases where there's no footage, no public pressure, and no accountability,” say director Laura Dyan Kezman and co-director William Howell, both Racine natives. Kezman is an award-winning director, DP, and editor, and the founder of LionArt Media committed to telling bold, socially driven stories that examine justice, culture, and civic engagement. Howell is a cinematographer, editor, and director based in Milwaukee. He was the cinematographer of ‘The Rise and Fall of Coo Coo Cal' and the director of the 2020 film ‘You Don't Know Me'. Join the CYCLE directors and Laura Flanders for this powerful conversation on police accountability and community action, plus a commentary on the media quiet about Trump's massive military build-up in the Caribbean. “. . . We started this film in 2019 with the intention of not making an angry film, but we didn't quite know what the film needed to be yet. Then COVID hit, Ahmaud Arbery was killed, and then Breonna Taylor was killed, and then George Floyd was killed . . . We felt it then, that this was something so much bigger than us in terms of us telling Tyrese's story in that moment.” - Laura Dyan Kezman “The call to action, that's when I see, more than anything, that we achieved our goal. People are not leaving these theaters angry . . . They're leaving and saying, what can we do? What can I do? What can we do together as people to help create this change?” - William Howell Guests: • William Howell: Co-Director, CYCLE • Laura Dyan Kezman: Director, Editor & Producer, CYCLE   Watch the special report on YouTube; PBS World Channel Sundays 11:30am ET, and on over 300 public stations across the country (check your listings, or search here via zipcode).

A Quick Note to Listeners: Before each week’s interview, Will Parker and Jen Schwanke spend some time answering a listener question. This week’s question is: What advice would a teacher want to give to a new principal? Listen in to hear their response! Meet Tyler Watkins: Tyler Watkins, Ed.D., is the principal of Petal High School, one of Mississippi's top-rated high schools and a 2022 National Blue Ribbon School. He began his career in 2011 as a teacher and baseball coach before moving into school leadership. His work centers on building belonging, creating predictable systems, and leading through stability. Dr. Watkins earned his doctorate in Educational Leadership from William Carey University, where his research focused on the academic effects of student transiency. He lives in Petal, Mississippi, with his wife, Katie, and their children, Lowe and Cohen. He is the author of Rooted Leadership in a Mobile World: Belonging, Predictability, and Purpose When Students Come and Go, scheduled for release in Fall 2026. Why This Work Matters: Dr. Watkins' passion for this topic didn't begin with theory. It began with what he was seeing every day. Students were constantly entering and leaving his school, and even in a high performing system, each new student was starting over. That led him to ask a deeper question, what are we doing to make students feel rooted, even when their lives are not. In today's landscape of school choice and increased mobility, this isn't a niche issue. It is everywhere. Whether a school is high performing or struggling, students are navigating transitions, and schools must be ready to respond. It's Not Just Academic, It's Human: One of the biggest shifts Dr. Watkins describes is recognizing that student mobility is not just an academic issue, it is a human one. New students are not simply catching up on content. They are trying to understand new teachers, new systems, and new social environments, often while carrying emotional weight from their transitions. Too often, schools focus first on academics. But Dr. Watkins emphasizes that stability has to be intentionally designed, not assumed. Start with the First 10 Days: At its most practical level, Dr. Watkins encourages leaders to focus on the first 10 days of a student's experience. Every new student should have a clear plan, not just a schedule. That plan should include intentional check ins, clear expectations, and a structured way to help them navigate the building. Without this, students are often left to figure things out on their own, which increases stress and disconnect. Every Student Needs an Adult Connection: Along with a clear plan, every student needs an immediate connection with a trusted adult. At Petal High School, Dr. Watkins and his team assign students to an administrator and counselor by alphabet, and they meet them right away. It is simple, but it matters. Students need to know someone knows their name, where to find them, and how to reach out when they need help. That connection is often the difference between feeling lost and feeling grounded. Consistency Reduces Stress: Another key insight Dr. Watkins shares is the importance of consistency across classrooms. It is overwhelming for students, especially new ones, to relearn expectations from class to class. Schools must align expectations so students can focus on learning rather than constantly adjusting to different systems. Clarity and consistency do not just support behavior, they create stability. Communicate Early with Families: Dr. Watkins also highlights the power of early communication with families. A simple message home letting a parent know their child had a great day can immediately build trust and connection. These small moments send a clear message, your child matters here, and we are paying attention. High Expectations with High Support: A common misconception is that schools must choose between being welcoming and maintaining high expectations. Dr. Watkins challenges that thinking. You do not lower expectations for new students, you increase support. You teach the systems, clarify confusion quickly, and give students the tools they need to succeed. Confusion should not be punished, it should be addressed with clarity. Leadership Sets the Tone: This work does not happen by accident. It is a leadership responsibility. Dr. Watkins emphasizes that leaders must design systems that create predictability and ensure consistency across the school. Teacher attitudes toward new students are critical. When staff see new students as opportunities instead of interruptions, it changes everything. Leaders set that tone through clarity, communication, and example. From Classroom to Campus Leadership: Reflecting on his own journey, Dr. Watkins describes a shift many leaders experience. As a teacher, the focus is on running a great classroom. As a principal, the focus becomes building a school where every classroom reflects that same level of excellence. For new leaders, he offers practical advice. Set clear expectations, follow through consistently, protect instructional time, and keep systems stable. These foundational practices create the environment where both students and staff can thrive. Belonging, Predictability, and Purpose: At the heart of this conversation are three essential elements, belonging, predictability, and purpose. Dr. Watkins emphasizes that students need to feel known. They need systems they can rely on. And they need to understand that what they are doing matters. When those elements are in place, students can succeed, even in the middle of constant change. What Students Need to Succeed: Drawing from Ruby Payne's research on under resourced learners, there are key resources every student needs in order to thrive in school. Financial resources Emotional stability and self regulation Mental and academic skills A sense of purpose or direction Physical health Support systems such as family, friends, and trusted adults Motivation, persistence, and grit Knowledge of hidden rules, expectations, and social cues within a school For students who are constantly moving, many of these supports are disrupted. That is why schools must intentionally step in to provide them. Final Thoughts: Dr. Watkins leaves us with a reminder that is both simple and powerful. Students do not need perfect schools, they need stable ones. And that is something every leader can influence.

Am 15. September 2013 fährt die Jurastudentin Luisa Ribero* nach einem Familienbesuch abends mit dem Zug zurück nach Hanau. Vom Bahnhof bis zu ihrer Wohnung sind es nur wenige Meter zu Fuß, doch auf dem Weg dorthin wird sie brutal attackiert: Ein unbekannter Mann schlägt ihr mit einer 1,7 kg schweren Hantelstange von hinten auf den Kopf. Die 25-Jährige sackt zu Boden und wird bewusstlos. Als zwei Jugendliche auf das Geschehen aufmerksam werden und zu Hilfe eilen, flüchtet der Täter. Nur mit Glück überlebt Luisa Ribero die schweren Verletzungen. Doch was bleibt, ist die Frage: Wer hat sie angegriffen – und warum? Zu Gast im Tonstudio bei Rudi Cerne und Conny Neumeyer ist Ulrike Greiner, Erste Kriminalhauptkommissarin beim hessischen Landeskriminalamt in Wiesbaden. 2013 leitete sie die Ermittlungen zu dem versuchten Mord. Sie berichtet von der schwierigen Suche nach dem Täter, die sich über viele Jahre hinzog, und den zahlreichen Ermittlungsmethoden, die dabei ausgeschöpft wurden. Außerdem im Interview ist die Rechtswissenschaftlerin Prof. Dr. Dr. Frauke Rostalski. Sie spricht über die Möglichkeiten und Grenzen einer DNA-Reihenuntersuchung, die auch in diesem Fall zum Einsatz kam. *Name von der Redaktion geändert *** Moderation: Rudi Cerne, Conny Neumeyer Gast: Erste Kriminalhauptkommissarin Ulrike Greiner, Hessisches LKA Expertin: Prof. Dr. Dr. Frauke Rostalski, Lehrstuhlinhaberin u.a. für Strafrecht, Universität zu Köln Autorin dieser Folge:  Lale Artun Audioproduktion & Technik: Louis Schäffer, Christina Maier Leitung Postproduktion: Stephan Gossen Produktionsleitung Securitel: Marion Biefeld Produktionsleitung Bumm Film: Melanie Graf, Nina Kuhn Produktionsmanagement ZDF: Julian Best Leitung Digitale Redaktion Securitel: Nicola Haenisch-Korus Produzent Securitel: René Carl Produzent Bumm Film: Nico Krappweis  Redaktion Securitel: Katharina Jakob, Natascha Fehn, Zoë Jungblut Redaktion ZDF: Sonja Roy, Kirsten Zielonka Regie Bumm Film: David Gromer

The return of "What About?" Wednesdays! Text us your questions for apologist and pastor Robby Lashua!Northwest Christian School's annual student-centered, Gospel-reading campaign is called REDLETTERCHALLENGE.ORG.And, we tend to get so excited about all of it -- students, the Gospels, and the art and science of inspiring students to develop a daily devotional discipline -- that things tend to get carried away!That's certainly the case with Fall 2026.  Launched in elementary chapel on Wednesday, August 26th, REDLETTERCHALLENGE.ORG invites students into the daily discipline of time in God's word.  We read one chapter per day, working our way through the four gospels, over the course of three months.  Along the way, as we work to inspire a love of daily time with Jesus, we provide extrinsic reminders of the intrinsic worth that such a commitment can make in their lives!To assist our families with this process, as we move through the Red Letter Challenge, each day for the next several weeks, we're going to publish a podcast episode within the Kingdom Culture Conversations venue, that features Geoff Brown reading that day's gospel chapter.For more info, and to join the fun, please visit REDLETTERCHALLENGE.ORG.

Tacko Fall is getting another opportunity in the NBA, signing with the Philadelphia 76ers. In this episode, I break down what Fall brings to Philly, why the 76ers are giving him another chance, and whether he can make an impact with the team.I also discuss Victor Oladipo's emotional plea to NBA general managers as the former two-time All-Star looks for another opportunity to continue his career.
