On this episode of New York's Finest: Retired & Unfiltered, John Macari, Marlon Bethel, and Eric Dym break down one of the biggest law enforcement stories in New York. Federal agents executed a search warrant at the home of former NYC Sheriff Anthony Miranda, the latest development in the ongoing investigations surrounding the Sheriff's Office. We'll examine everything known so far, what remains unanswered, and what this could mean for Miranda and New York City law enforcement. Then we turn our attention to the NYPD's latest recruiting strategy after city leaders approved raising the maximum hiring age for new police officers. The department has now: Lowered the minimum hiring age. Reduced the college credit requirement. Increased recruiting incentives. Raised the maximum hiring age. Are these smart reforms to expand the applicant pool—or signs that the NYPD's hiring crisis remains far more serious than City Hall admits? We'll discuss what these changes say about staffing, morale, retention, and the future of policing in New York City. Support Our Sponsor — Kalshi Get $20 when you trade $20!

Welcome to another unfiltered, and raw, live episode of the Finest Unfiltered Podcast! First up, Mayor Mamdani's cultural purge. NYC Council members are absolutely blasting Mayor Zohran Mamdani after a newly unveiled immigrant enclave map completely ERASED Little Italy. While the map features dozens of communities—from Little Palestine to Little Bangladesh—it completely leaves out the city's most historic Italian neighborhood. Is this a deliberate snub to Italian, Irish, and Jewish immigrant communities, or a massive oversight? We are diving deep into the political backlash and the community outrage. What does it all mean? Then, we transition to our secondary topic—a disturbing look into an off-duty NYPD officer, identified as Joshua Acosta of the department's Legal Bureau, who has been arrested and charged with the horrific rape and abuse of a child relative dating back five years. We cover the internal investigation, the response from union leaders, and what this means for accountability within the NYPD. We'll also discuss the latest NYPD news, NYC politics, and take your live questions throughout the show.

Mouton Barèges-Gavarnie: The Finest Mutton in France | Food Tour de FranceMouton Barèges-Gavarnie — the extraordinary AOP mutton from the high mountain pastures above the Tour de France route today — is one of the most remarkable and most misunderstood meat products in France. Today's Food Tour de France episode finishes at Gavarnie-Gèdre at the foot of the Tourmalet, and tells the full story of the only mutton in France to hold an AOC designation — a distinction it earned in 2003 after eight years of applications, legal battles and the determination of a small group of Pyrenean farmers who refused to let their breed and their tradition disappear into the cheaper imported meat market. The Barégeoise sheep — hardy, fine-boned, a good walker — spends its summers grazing in total freedom on 25,000 hectares of wild alpine grassland between 1,600 and 2,600 metres. And the flavour of those high pastures — the wild thyme, the gentian, the dozens of aromatic mountain plants — ends up directly in the meat.The episode covers everything that makes Mouton Barèges-Gavarnie unlike any other mutton you have encountered — the specific Barégeoise breed that developed in isolation in the upper valley of the Gave de Pau, the precise breeding cycle that follows the mountain year from estive to valley and back again, and the two specific types of animal that produce the AOP meat. The jeune brebis — a young ewe between two and six years old — and the doublon, a castrated male that has spent at least two summers on the high pastures and is considered by those who know it best to be the finest expression of what this landscape can produce in a single piece of meat. Available from June through January and nowhere outside that window. Seasonal in the most absolute possible sense.The Food Tour de France is a daily series running alongside the 2026 Tour de France on Fabulously Delicious — one episode for every stage start and finish. The mouton Barèges-Gavarnie connects directly to the haricot tarbais episode from Lannemezan — the classic regional pairing of mountain lamb and Pyrenean beans is one of the finest in all of southwest French cooking — and to the broader picture of Pyrenean food culture this series has been building stage by stage.

In this episode, Ray Cochrane digs into “algorithmic outing,” new research showing that social feeds can infer your sexual orientation before you have consciously come out. He also covers Meta’s privacy-aware AI infrastructure, Alberta’s 466-million-line code scan with Claude, NVIDIA on reinforcement learning, and the many journeys of learning Rust. Along the way, he hits Google DeepMind’s A24 deal, WhatsApp usernames, and scuba-diving cyborg cockroaches. Finally, he looks up with Webb’s puzzling early universe, NASA’s emergency telescope rescue, and a gorgeous aurora from orbit. – Want to start a podcast? Its easy to get started!

He hopes listeners had a good holiday weekend, and he shares that he spent his time working his other job at Oregon’s Finest, chatting with people around Portland. Because his Blurbry workweek tends to be solitary, he refills his social meter on the weekends. He then recalls a Saturday night out with coworkers at the Hungry Tiger before turning to the lead story. Algorithmic Outing: When Your Feed Knows Before You Do Cochrane leads with new research from Australia that identifies a phenomenon called “algorithmic outing.” In short, the recommendation systems behind your social feeds can infer your sexual orientation or gender identity and start serving related content before you have worked it out yourself. Importantly, the study is small and qualitative, built on in-depth interviews with twenty LGBTQ+ adults in the Hunter region of New South Wales and published in the journal Gender, Place and Culture. The mechanism is engagement signals: what you like, who you follow, and how long you linger on a post, a metric the industry calls dwell time. Lead researcher Dr. Justin Ellis of the University of Newcastle notes that several participants said the algorithm “knew” they were queer before they did, an experience that felt validating for some but frightening for others in public settings. For Cochrane, the deeper worry is what else that hidden pattern encodes, from upbringing to mental health, and where that data ultimately gets sold.

Meta’s Blueprint for Privacy-Aware AI Infrastructure Next, Cochrane turns to a sharp engineering piece from Meta on privacy-aware infrastructure. The core challenge is that a system must understand what a piece of data actually is before any privacy rule can protect it. A field named “age,” for example, might describe a person in one place and a cache setting in another. Meta’s answer deploys a large language model only on the genuinely ambiguous cases, then distills what it learns into fixed, human-reviewed rules. The payoff is concrete. According to Meta, those deterministic rules already handle about 85 percent of the traffic, and only the last 15 percent falls back to the model, which costs roughly 400 times more compute. Cochrane loves this edge-case approach. However, he contrasts it sharply with the AI-everywhere software he wrestles with at his weekend job, which he says the heavy AI reliance genuinely makes worse and harder to audit. Alberta Scans 466 Million Lines of Code With Claude This one comes from Anthropic, and it ties directly to Meta’s theme. A team inside Alberta’s Ministry of Technology and Innovation used Claude to scan 466 million lines of code in about twenty hours, a review Anthropic estimates would have taken humans roughly six and a half years. Notably, they ran around fifty AI agents in parallel, essentially an automated red team and blue team probing the systems at once. For Cochrane, this is the good version of AI in production: cleaning up and locking down real systems rather than running the show unsupervised. NVIDIA on Reinforcement Learning for AI Agents On the AI-building side, Cochrane walks through an NVIDIA developer piece on reinforcement learning for agents. Reinforcement learning rewards a model for good behavior rather than showing it the right answer, much like training a dog with treats. Additionally, he clears up a common mix-up. NVIDIA treats RAG, retrieval-augmented generation, as a separate tool: reinforcement learning changes how a model behaves, while RAG changes what facts it can reach. GitHub Retires Two Gemini Models Meanwhile, GitHub is retiring Gemini 2.5 Pro and Gemini 3 Flash across all of Copilot on July 31. The migration paths are Gemini 3.1 Pro and Gemini 3.5 Flash. Cochrane flags it as a sign of the times, since tools that felt brand new a couple of years ago are already getting sunset. He also wonders how quickly today’s “AI-optimized” chips will turn over as the models keep changing. The Many Journeys of Learning Rust One for the programmers, and Cochrane makes no secret of loving Rust. The Rust blog’s Vision Doc series explores how people actually learn the language, which is built around memory safety and its strict borrow checker. Honest themes surface throughout, including “clone guilt,” where beginners refuse to copy anything, and “silent attrition,” the learners who quietly bounce off. His take stands: getting your brain onto a memory-safe language rewires how you approach a problem. Google DeepMind Partners With A24 In an interesting collision of worlds, Google DeepMind is teaming up with A24, the studio behind Hereditary and Everything Everywhere All at Once. The two call it a first-of-its-kind research partnership, with DeepMind researchers and A24 building creative tools shaped by the artists who use them. Cochrane adds a detail worth noting: Google also invested in A24, so this is money on the table, not just a research handshake. For now, though, the announcement stays deliberately vague, with no named films or products. Google’s $1 Million Africa Indie Game Fund Another one from Google, and it is good news for developers. Google is launching an indie games fund for sub-Saharan Africa, a region whose gaming scene is growing about as fast as anywhere. The fund puts up $1 million across ten local studios, each receiving between $50,000 and $200,000 plus mentorship and hands-on support. Applications close at noon UTC on July 31. WhatsApp Usernames Are Here to Reserve WhatsApp is finally moving off phone numbers as your identity. With usernames, someone can start a conversation with you without ever seeing your number. Starting this week, you can reserve the name you want ahead of the full launch later this year. To claim yours, head into Settings, then Account, then Username. Intel Sets Its Q2 Earnings Date Cochrane flags a date worth watching for anyone tracking Intel. The company reports second-quarter results on July 23, right after market close, with an earnings call at 2 p.m. Pacific. Given recent US government investment and a shifting chip landscape, he is curious how the domestic chipmaker is holding up. Your Smartwatch Might Spot Illness Before You Do Shifting to health, Engadget reports that the wearables-plus-AI wave is starting to deliver. These devices excel at catching the moment your body drifts off its own baseline, often the first nudge to get checked out. A 2025 study from Texas A&M and Stanford suggests smartwatches can detect early signs of COVID or the flu within hours of infection. Additionally, Apple Watch’s irregular-rhythm alerts have flagged AFib correctly about 84 percent of the time. Working Memory and Consciousness Here is a heady one from Scientific American, written by philosopher Henry Taylor at the University of Birmingham. Working memory is the mental scratchpad holding whatever you are doing right now. Taylor opens with the doorway effect, that blank moment when you enter a room and forget why. Intriguingly, when information leaves working memory, it seems to leave conscious awareness at the same instant, a link drawing fresh attention across psychology, philosophy, and neuroscience. Scuba-Diving Cyborg Cockroaches Now for the wild one. Scientists have built tiny diving suits that let Madagascar hissing cockroaches survive underwater for up to three hours, while an unequipped roach suffocates in minutes. The 3D-printed suit feeds oxygen through tubes into the insect’s breathing holes, called spiracles, using a chemical generator with no electronics. This lab already steered the roaches with electrodes, so the diving suit is the new trick on top. Researchers pitch it for search and rescue, though Cochrane notes the reality of the spy bug has already arrived. Quantum Time Runs Backward at Los Alamos Next, a genuine brain-bender. Physicists at Los Alamos, led by Luis Pedro García-Pintos, found a way to make a quantum system look like it is running backward in time. To be clear, time is not literally reversing. Precise measurements just make the system’s evolution appear to unfold in reverse. The useful part is energy: measurement itself becomes a resource in what they call a continuous measurement engine. Cochrane admits the paper drifted further from his reality the more he read. Tall Trees Shrug Off Drought A new study in Science overturns some textbook wisdom. For years, the assumption held that taller trees suffer more in drought because they must lift water higher. However, researchers studying dipterocarps in Southeast Asia found that trees topping seventy meters slowed their growth by about the same amount as short ones during the 2023-2024 El Niño drought. The trick is plumbing: a seventy-meter tree grows base vessels roughly twice as wide as a ten-meter tree, so the real driver of drought stress is subtler than raw height. The Energy Department Purges Conservation Pages This next one frustrates Cochrane. The US Department of Energy deleted roughly 6,000 web pages about energy conservation, and the timing is brutal during a record heatwave. The move followed backlash over New York Mayor Zohran Mamdani urging residents to ease strain on the grid. Fortunately, the Internet Archive and its Wayback Machine preserved the pages before they vanished. For Cochrane, deleting that kind of public information simply does not make sense. Webb’s Puzzling New Universe Heading to space, Quanta Magazine explores how the James Webb Space Telescope keeps finding early-universe objects that should not exist. Those include black holes that grew enormous too fast and hundreds of mysterious “little red dots” around 650 million years after the Big Bang. As astrophysicist Rachel Somerville of the Flatiron Institute puts it, scientists have “almost gone from having too many early galaxies to having too many theories.” The hard part now is figuring out which theory is right. NASA’s Emergency Telescope Rescue NASA has a rescue mission underway for the Swift Observatory, a 2004 telescope that studies gamma-ray bursts. Recent solar storms puffed up Earth’s atmosphere, and the added drag has dragged Swift’s orbit down to about 224 miles, low enough to risk burning up this year. To intervene, NASA enlisted Katalyst Space Technologies of Flagstaff, Arizona, whose LINK spacecraft launched Friday. The plan is to boost Swift back up to roughly 373 miles. A Gorgeous Aurora From Orbit Finally, Cochrane closes on something beautiful. ESA shared a stunning aurora captured from orbit, a shimmering green band of light rippling over the planet. If you have a few minutes, it is well worth a look. Cochrane wraps with housekeeping and a thank-you to GoDaddy for two decades of support, then signs off, wishing listeners a wonderful evening.

New York City just hit the deadline on a massive $125.8 billion budget—and Mayor Zohran Mamdani just sealed a deal that cements what critics are calling an absolute extinction-level event for the NYPD. Despite a bleeding police force suffering from massive attrition, the new administration has officially shaken hands on holding the NYPD headcount completely flat, locking in the reversal of the previously planned 5,000-officer surge. While progressive allies are celebrating the "no new cops" strategy, the thin blue line in NYC is officially shrinking to levels not seen in decades.

Our Starfleet's Finest? Spotlight Series brings us to DS9 with the amazing 2 part episode "The Maquis Pt. 1 & 2"! In this episode, we highlight Lt Commander Cal Hudson, a longtime close friend of Commander Sisko. Cal might be the most unique character in our Spotlight Series as he's not a Captain or Admiral. However, as mentioned in Part 1, he and Sisko are the two ranking officers along the Cardassian border and his role in the Federation's struggle with the Maquis is critical. But he doesn't agree with what the Federation has done in abandoning their citizens to keep the treaty...a price to high for the Maquis and for Cal. Cal Hudson is probably the most difficult character in our Starfleet's Finest series. Do you think he's one of Starfleet's Finest or not? Let us know!
New York's highest court has spoken. In a unanimous decision, the New York Court of Appeals ruled that the NYPD may prohibit members of the public from filming inside police precinct lobbies, rejecting arguments that New York's Right to Record laws protect recording inside stationhouses. John Macari and Marlon Bethel break down: The Court of Appeals' unanimous ruling Why the judges say precinct lobbies are different from streets and sidewalks The privacy concerns involving crime victims, witnesses, confidential informants and undercover officers Whether this is a victory for officer safety or a setback for government transparency What this means for First Amendment auditors, including Long Island Audit (SeanPaul Reyes) Why the federal constitutional challenge is still far from over How this decision could impact police departments across New York We'll also discuss the latest breaking law enforcement news, viral police videos, legislation, court rulings, and everything impacting the NYPD and public safety. Do you agree with the Court's decision? Should cameras be allowed inside police precinct lobbies, or should victim privacy and officer safety take priority? Let us know in the comments.

En esta transmisión especial estuvimos en vivo desde las instalaciones de Global Empowerment Mission (GEM), ubicadas en Doral, llevando de cerca toda la labor humanitaria que se realiza para apoyar a las víctimas del terremoto en Venezuela. Conversamos con Bianca Bucaram, directora de Relaciones Públicas de GEM, y con Francine De la Rosa, vocera de la organización, quienes explicaron cómo se están coordinando las donaciones y el envío de ayuda a las comunidades afectadas. También compartimos con el capitán Neil, de Fishing With America’s Finest, quien se sumó a esta gran causa solidaria, y enlazamos con “El Gato” de nuestra emisora hermana Magic 93.9 FM, quien estuvo transmitiendo desde el restaurante El Arepazo, otro importante centro de acopio donde la comunidad respondió con generosidad. Fue una jornada llena de solidaridad, esperanza y compromiso, demostrando que cuando la comunidad se une, la ayuda llega más lejos. Gracias a todos los que aportaron su granito de arena para apoyar a nuestros hermanos venezolanos.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Iran leaves the World Cup without a single defeat, yet three draws prove just short of extending its journey. A disallowed game-winning goal against Egypt, the decisive 3-3 draw between Algeria and Austria, and the final third-place standings combine to bring an unforgettable campaign to an unexpected end. The defining moments are broken down to show how every result shaped Iran's fate. Sometimes the difference between advancing and going home is measured by far more than wins and losses.⚽
In this episode we will be breaking down the massive federal bribery probe that has sent shockwaves through One Police Plaza. Feds descended on the residences of former Chief of Department Jeffrey Maddrey, former Deputy Commissioner Tarik Sheppard, and active Assistant Chief James McCarthy (who was immediately stripped of his gun and modified). Allegations suggest a deep-rooted "favors-for-promotions" pipeline where top brass allegedly took bribes to manipulate NYPD assignments, transfers, and rank advancements. This chaos unfolded on the exact same morning the FBI arrested Frank Carone—the powerful former Chief of Staff to ex-Mayor Eric Adams—in a completely separate, multi-million dollar migrant crisis shelter bribery and money laundering scheme. Are more indictments on the way?
