Amy Needle, CEO and President of Historic Philadelphia, Inc. discussed the summer activities planned for Franklin Square, the Betsy Ross House and throughout the Olde City historic district. The brainchild of former Mayor Ed Rendell, Historic Philadelphia was founded to package and promote the tourism impact of the many historic sites and the pivotal events that happened here. Today it oversees the Betsy Ross House, the home of Betsy, her three husbands and many children and her upholstery business, and the redeveloped and revitalized Franklin Square, one of William Penn’s original green spaces. It also offers ‘Once Upon a Nation,’ live interactive presentations by costumed reenactors throughout the historic district. We touched on the plans for this year, and ongoing partnerships with other district museums and sites in anticipation of 2026 celebrations. Once Upon A Nation will again offer its famous Storytelling Benches in Old City with new free programs for kids. For adults, they are introducing ‘Cocktails with Congress,’ a Thursday Happy Hour at Carpenters’ Hall. At Franklin Square the Chinese Lantern Festival, their major fundraiser, returns June 20 through August 31 with cultural offerings and vendors. The event is open to the public during the day and ticketed at night when the lanterns glow. The daily fountain shows in the Rendell Family Fountain, the carousel and Mini Golf and Square Burger restaurant are all open throughout the day and evening. During the day there will be exercise classes, yoga and other offerings at the park which serves as a green anchor for the residents and schools nearby. Amy discussed their annual July 2nd celebration, a parade winding from the National Constitution Center to the Museum of the American Revolution, followed by activities and entertainment at eight neighboring historic sites. Amy revealed that an expanded version of this will be the centerpiece for their 2026 plans as well as ‘52 Weeks of Firsts’ – markers celebrating famous firsts of Philadelphia, with one spotlighted every week. For more information about tours, Once Upon a Nation sites, tickets to the Chinese Lantern Festival and other historic events check the Historic Philadelphia Gazette at historicphiladelpia.org.

“Democrats in disarray” is more than just a trope — after last year's disastrous elections, the Dems are openly fretting about how to pull the party out of its crisis. Kara speaks to a panel of millennial leaders about how to rejuvenate the party; what role the generational divide plays in policy and agenda setting; and what Democrats need to do to win back younger voters (and older ones, too). Rep. Greg Casar (D-TX) was first elected to Congress in 2022. He is the chair of the Congressional Progressive Caucus and he's currently part of the “Fighting Oligarchy Tour” with Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) and Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY). Amanda Litman is a co-founder of Run for Something, an organization that helps young, diverse progressives run for down-ballot races. Since its founding in 2017, Run for Something has helped elect nearly 1,500 candidates in 49 states and the District of Columbia – including more than 250 candidates in 2024, 18 of whom flipped their seats from red to blue. Litman's new book, “When We're in Charge: The Next Generation's Guide to Leadership” was just published. Rep. Sarah McBride (D-DE) was elected to the House last year, and she is the first openly transgender elected member of Congress. She is a member of the Congressional Progressive Caucus, a former Delaware State Senator, and a Run For Something alum. Her campaign and first few months in office (which included being banned from using the women's bathroom in the Capitol) is the subject of a new documentary “State of Firsts,” which just played at the Tribeca Film Festival and DC/DOX.

Chuck Todd begins with the apparent de-escalation of the feud between Donald Trump and Elon and why the power imbalance between the two meant that Elon would be forced to back down. Then, he explains why Trump is deliberately manufacturing a crisis by federalizing the National Guard and sending them to LA to deal with protests over ICE raids. He calls it a “political trap” set by Stephen Miller and that the administration has chosen to use California as a political punching bag. He also weighs in on the crisis of leadership at the DNC after an internal call was leaked to the press and why it could be the end of Ken Martin's time as chair.Then, Chuck welcomes filmmaker Chase Joynt and Congresswoman Sarah McBride to discuss the documentary "State of Firsts," which chronicles McBride's historic journey as the first openly transgender person elected to Congress. Joynt explains the origins of the film and the decision to focus on McBride's political coming of age amid the intensifying national debate over trans rights. The conversation explores the broader LGBTQ civil rights movement, the challenges of media coverage around trans issues, and how Trump has weaponized transgender Americans as political scapegoats. They discuss the ongoing tensions within the gay community about whether the fight for trans rights is "worth it," and examine how civil rights have historically advanced incrementally through strategic battles.McBride joins the conversation to reflect on the personal toll of being thrust into the spotlight as a symbol for an entire community while trying to serve her Delaware constituents effectively. She discusses the unique pressures that come with being the "first" of any identity group in Congress, the performance incentives that can bring out the worst in politicians, and her approach to picking battles strategically rather than fighting on every front. The discussion touches on Delaware's distinctive political dynamics, her relationship with President Biden, the complexities of the trans women in sports debate, and whether she would accept a meeting with Trump. Throughout, both guests emphasize the importance of seeing transgender people as whole individuals rather than reducing them to a single issue, while acknowledging the weight of representation in advancing civil rights.Finally, he answers listeners' questions in the “Ask Chuck” segment regarding filibuster reform in the Senate, whether age limits for lawmakers are a good idea, and whether Trump would be best served resigning the presidency in order to receive a pardon from JD Vance.Timeline:00:00 Introduction01:15 Trump backs off when dealing with rich and powerful people02:15 Elon is a bridge between MAGA and the tech elite03:00 Steve Bannon says Musk's money might have made the difference in election05:00 Trump is always for sale, but the deals aren't stable 06:15 Musk is powerful but not irreplaceable 07:00 Trump could destroy Musk's companies before his term ends08:45 The fate of our country hinges on a pissing match between two powerful people10:15 Voters think all politicians are equally corrupt11:00 The Trump administration is trying to manufacture a crisis in Los Angeles12:30 What you're reading and seeing online isn't what's happening on the ground13:30 Majority of voters want immigration enforced, but humanely and with due process15:00 Stephen Miller believes he's setting up a political trap16:15 The administration wants to use California as a cultural punching bag18:00 DNC chair Ken Martin caught on recording saying he might not be up to the job20:00 Martin defined himself as a placeholder with doubts20:45 Democrats don't know who's in charge, or who they want to be in charge21:45 Ken Martin will be defined by this moment24:00 Chase Joynt joins the Chuck ToddCast! 25:00 What was the origin of "State of Firsts"? 26:45 Were there any ground rules or "no goes" when creating the film? 28:00 Sarah's ascent to Congress amidst the brewing fight over trans rights 29:45 Is the debate over trans rights being "worth it" still happening in gay community? 31:00 Does the fight for trans rights feel like two steps forward, one step back? 32:30 The value in unearthing the history of the fight for equal LBGTQ rights 34:20 They chose to tell the story of Sarah's political coming of age 36:15 Frustrations with media coverage of the fight for trans rights? 37:00 Trump understands that he created a scapegoat 38:00 The fight over trans women in sports 39:00 Had Chase ever done a political documentary before "State of Firsts"? 41:00 What did you learn about how politics is conducted? 42:30 Politics dominates the public space in America 44:00 What surprised you most after being around congress? 45:15 Being the "first" of an identity group in congress 47:30 The pressure on McBride of being forced to speak on behalf of an entire community 48:45 Civil rights have always been advanced incrementally 51:40 Worried that the Democratic party will abandon the trans community?53:10 Sarah McBride joins the Chuck ToddCast! 53:40 Was it hard to let people into your private life for the documentary? 54:55 Managing the burden of being a symbol for the trans community 57:10 The pressure that comes with being the "first" representative of an identity group 58:40 Delaware voters were able to see her as a whole person and not just trans 1:00:10 Was it easier to be bipartisan in state government than in Congress? 1:01:25 The performance incentives in Congress can bring out the worst in people 1:04:25 The political dynamics of Delaware 1:06:10 Delaware's status as the home of corporate America 1:09:40 Other states don't have the legal framework to outcompete Delaware for incorporations 1:10:25 Is the criticism of Biden fair? 1:13:10 Hakeem Jeffries is doing a fantastic job managing the caucus 1:14:55 Should Democrats extend an olive branch to Elon Musk? 1:15:40 Is someone who embraces trans rights but not in sports an ally? 1:16:40 Sports governing bodies should oversee the trans women in sports issue 1:18:40 Worried about backlash from the trans community for not fighting hard enough? 1:20:10 Civil rights movements have to pick their battles 1:23:40 Would you accept an invitation from Trump for an oval office meeting? 1:24:40 What achievements in Congress would you consider success? 1:26:10 Did you ever dream of becoming president as a kid?1:27:05 Chuck's thoughts on interview with Sarah McBride 1:28:05 Ask Chuck 1:28:15 If the Big Beautiful Bill doesn't pass, should the Senate end the filibuster? 1:31:20 Thoughts on Andor season 2? 1:33:55 Are age limits for elected officials a good idea? 1:36:35 Would Trump's best outcome be resigning and having Vance pardon him?(Timestamps may vary based on advertisements)

On The Cycling Podcast Féminin this month, Rose Manley, Denny Gray and Rebecca Charlton head back to their virtual cabana to talk about everything that happened in the Spanish racing block. With a win at Vuelta a Burgos, Marlen Reusser's ascendency continues. The Movistar rider has put a difficult 2024 behind her to become one of the very best GC stage race contenders in the world. Plus we can't agree on whether to put Team SD Worx's lacklustre GC stage racing campaign in Burgos and Itzulia down to overreaching team orders or plain old bad luck. And there are some new names to look out for in the peloton, with riders like Mie Bjørndal Ottestad and Celia Géry enjoying breakthrough performances. For this month's mini feature, we speak to two Irish riders who have joined the World Tour this season - Lara Gillespie of UAE-ADQ and Mia Griffin of Roland. The pair formed half of the quartet that made history at the Paris Olympics as Ireland's first ever female pursuit team, a feat all the more remarkable considering the country is yet to have an indoor velodrome. We hear from both riders as they turn their attentions to the road. Also on the agenda, week-long Nienke Vinke Fan Club celebrations, Denny's Union Jack bowler hat and how the TCP Féminin budget REALLY gets spent.

 Emirati Stand Up Abz Ali Talks Firsts, Social Media & Finding Healing Through Humour

Ich sag's, wie's ist: Diese Folge sollte eigentlich mit Pauken und Trompeten gekürt werden. Und das Universum hat geliefert – mitten im spanischen Mai ein Gewitter, wie ich es hier noch nie erlebt habe. Und während draußen der Hagel gegen die Scheiben knallt, spreche ich drinnen laut aus, was sich in mir schon seit Wochen anbahnt: Glück in Worten endet. Nach acht Jahren, knapp 400 Folgen, unzähligen Nachrichten, Tränen, Lachern, Erkenntnissen, Manifestationen, Firsts, Failures und Wundern… schließe ich dieses Kapitel. Warum? Genau das erzähle ich dir in dieser Folge, was sich für mich verändert, wohin meine Reise geht – und warum du das vielleicht auch spürst: dass gerade eine Ära endet, um Platz zu machen. Das hier ist keine Beerdigung. Es ist ein Übergang. Und du darfst dabei sein. Mit allem, was war – und allem, was kommt. Ich freu mich, wenn du reinhörst. Alle aktuellen Infos zu mir und meinen Kursen findest du hier:  https://claudiaengel.de/links/    Ich freu mich auf dich.
