Women Series. Episode #2 of 4. In 1861, one of the most powerful slave narratives in American history was published under the title, Incidents in the Life of a Slave Girl, written by Harriet Jacobs and edited by the famous abolitionist, Lydia Maria Child. The memoir unflinchingly recounts the unique experience that enslaved women faced in the American system of Black chattel slavery - to put it bluntly, Jacobs describes the years of grooming, manipulation, sexual harassment, and threats of rape that she faced at the hands of her master, Dr. Flint, and the abuse she took from her mistress, Mrs. Flint. Jacobs' memoir painted a picture of slavery that had all the brutality that we're familiar with learning about - backbreaking work, horrific physical punishments, tearing families apart, inhuman treatment. But it also added a new layer - that enslavement was a different experience for women, for whom sexual terror was a constant, pregnancy was profitable, rape was often unavoidable, and childbirth and wet nursing were part of their labor. For this episode in our latest series on women's history, we're talking about women and American slavery. Find transcripts and show notes at: www.digpodcast.org Learn more about your ad choices.

A liberal friend complains about Epsteingate getting too much attention. Ben riffs. Flint Taylor tells the long, sordid story of the torture of Black prisoners by Jon Burge and his cronies on the police force. It's a crime that was made possible because powerful people in a position to stop it, were looking the other way. Flint is the “lefty lawyer” who represented Jackie Wilson, who recently settle his police torture case against the city. Flint wrote The Torture Machine. Among the many cases he's handled over the years was the lawsuit on behalf of Fred Hampton.

“The Maples” ~ Marie Howe I asked the stand of maples behind the house,
How should I live my life? They said, shhh shhh shhh . . . How should I live, I asked, and the leaves seemed to ripple and gleam. A bird called from a branch in its own tongue,
And from a branch, across the yard, another bird answered. A squirrel scrambled up a trunk
then along the length of a branch. Stand still, I thought,
See how long you can bear that. Try to stand still, if only for a few moments,

3. Michael's Dream Dreamed c. 1993 by Michael; written by Mark Doty Michael writes to tell me his dream: I was helping Randy out of bed, supporting him on one side with another friend on the other, and as we stood him up, he stepped out 
of the body I was holding and became
 a shining body, brilliant light
 held in the form I first knew him in. This is what I imagine will happen,
 the spirit's release. Michael, 
when we support our friends,
 one of us on either side, our arms under the man or woman's arms,
 what is it we're holding? Vessel ,
shadow, hurrying light? All those years 
I made love to a man without thinking how little his body had to do with me;
 now, diminished, he's never been so plainly 
himself—remote and unguarded, 
an otherness I can't know the first thing about. I said,
 You need to drink more water
 or you're going to turn into 
an old dry leaf. And he said, Maybe I want to be an old leaf 
In the dream Randy's leaping into
 the future, and still here; Michael's holding him 
and releasing at once. Just as Steve's holding Jerry, though he's already gone,
 Marie holding John, gone, Maggie holding her John, gone, Carlos and Darren 
holding another Michael, gone, and I'm holding Wally, who's going. 
Where isn't the question, 
though we think it is;
 we don't even know where the living are, in this raddled and unraveling "here."
 What is the body? Rain on a window, 
a clear movement over whose gaze? 
Husk, leaf, little boat of paper and wood to mark the speed of the stream? 
Randy and Jerry, Michael and Wally 
and John: lucky we don't have to know 
what something is in order to hold it.

Life is made up of seasons—some filled with joy, others with sorrow. Ecclesiastes 3 reminds us that every moment, whether it feels like a beginning or an ending, has its place in God's perfect plan.

Deep beneath the veneer of an ordinary family man lurked one of Michigan's most disturbing predators. Jeffrey Gordon—quiet, meticulous, and seemingly gentle—maintained a double life that shocked even veteran investigators when it was finally exposed in 2001.The search of Gordon's modest Flint home revealed an astonishing collection of approximately 1,200 women's undergarments, many labeled with names, dates, and locations—trophies from his countless violations of women's privacy. His disturbing videotapes captured unsuspecting victims in intimate moments, revealing a voyeuristic obsession that had apparently escalated to murder.Behind the scenes, jurisdictional tensions complicated the investigation. Prosecutor Arthur Busch insisted on proper procedures despite pressure from state police brass eager for media attention. As search warrants were finally executed, investigators discovered the true extent of Gordon's depravity—a meticulously organized collection that reflected the compartmentalized psychology of a predator who had successfully hidden in plain sight for years.Most shocking was how Gordon's behavior had raised red flags for years. Former neighbors reported multiple incidents of window peeping dating back to 1986. His own brothers reportedly referred to him as "the panty sniffer" behind his back. Yet his wife Brenda maintained she knew nothing of his criminal past in Florida, where he had served prison time for similar offenses. Gordon's arrest finally connected him to the 1986 murder of Margaret Eby at the prestigious Mott Estate, where his family business had installed sprinkler systems, and the 1991 killing of Nancy Ludwig at a Detroit airport hotel. After fifteen years, advanced DNA technology had finally caught up with a predator who had been hiding behind the facade of normalcy all along.Join us as we explore how this seemingly ordinary man maintained his secret life for so long, and the dedicated investigators who finally brought him to justice.Send us a text Support the show

Before joining the professional ranks, Taylor played collegiate soccer with the Colorado Buffaloes, scoring 39 goals throughout four seasons.

Jungedi, wat hebbt mien Madam un ick uns för unse Angelschiens afmöht. In de Meern vun Juli hebbt wi uns in Rendsborg prööven loten. Över 1500 Froogen un dat Kinnen vun bummeli 60 Fischoarten hebbt wi lehrn musst. Dat gung dor blang de Fischkunn‘ üm de Hege, üm den Natuurschutz, üm 'n Barg Gesetze, üm technische Froogen un all sowat. Un wat schall ick seggen: Wi hebbt beide bestohn. Schier. Nu weer de Pröövung vun‘ Termin her overs so dicht an unsen Uraub in Meckelnborg, wat dat Ergeevnis ni gau genog in de Post weer. Dormit harrn wi keen Gelegenheit mehr dorto, unsen „Fischerieschien“, as de Angelschien in echt heet, vun't Amt anftoholn. Overs wi wulln doch so gern in unsen Urlaub angeln. Dat hebbt wi je ook mokt. Un twor mit unsen „Touristen“- oder Urlaubs-„Fischerieschien“. Um an düssed Dokument to kom‘, hebbt wi unse persönlichen Daten un 20 Euro an't Lannesamt för Landwirtschop, Levensmiddel-Seekerheit un Fischerie in Meckelnborg-Vörpommern överwiesen musst. Wieder nix. Na jo, meist wieder nix: Man schull sick noch de Henwiese dörlesen, de över't Angeln in't Internet vun dat Amt opschreeven worrn sünd. Dat weer't denn overs würkli. Jo, un 'n Angelschien bruukt man gor ni, üm dat Dokument to beandreegen un to kriegen. Dat is 'n Ding, wenn man mol överleggt, wat de Reed vun Düütschland is. Blangbi: So oder so ähnli is dat in de mehrsten Bunneslänners. Dösig, ne. Ick meen, dat geiht je ümmerhen dorüm, lebennige Tiern to fangen un ehr, wenn se sick to'n Eeten eegnen doht, fachgerecht un ohne unnödige Wehdoog üm't Leven to bring‘. Dat heff ick op'n Weg to mien Angelschien lehrt. Ook dorüm geiht dat dorbi nu mol. Doröver overs, dat man all dat Weeten för 20 Euro kööpen kann, bün ick ni ganz so seeker. Man kann je ook keen Urlaubs-Jagdschien kööpen un för 20 Euro mit'n Flint‘ dör de Wischen trecken. Overs wat weet ick, denn al. De nästen 20 Euro in nästen Urlaub geev ick jedenfalls för'n Ulaubs-Helikopterschien ut. Dor freu ick mi al richti op… In düssen Sinn

Rives back aboard. He also welcomes Joe Flint, Senior Media Writer for the Wall Street Journal, who's been covering the NFL deal with ESPN that has been ongoing for months and months.Joe has insight on when this will take effect, how the fans viewing will be impacted (if much at all) and more. Also, the guys discuss whether ESPN is compromised now from an integrity standpoint and being able to be critical of the NFL on a big scale, if the NFL is now part owner, etc.?Plus, how much say will ESPN have on something like the RedZone, which has been commercial free for it's two decade existence, but could now have ads? They also discuss the NCAA and it's basketball tournament failing to get it's TV Partners Skydance/CBS and WBD/Turner Sports to go along with expanding.

Moving between shower drains, aqueducts, rain gardens, and even kitchen sinks, Replumbing the City: Water Management as Climate Adaptation in Los Angeles (University of California Press, 2025) traces the enormous urban waterscape of Los Angeles in a state of flux. For more than a century, the city of Los Angeles has relied on faraway water for the vast majority of its municipal supply, but climate change is making these distant sources much less dependable. To adapt, Angelenos—including city engineers, advocates at NGOs, and residents—are developing new water supplies within the space of the city.  Sayd Randle's ethnography examines the labor of replumbing LA's sprawling water system, detailing how a desire to sustain unlimited and uninterrupted water provision for paying customers is reshaping the urban environment and its management. Tracking how such projects redistribute the work of water management, the book explores thorny questions of how the labor of climate adaptation should be mobilized and valued. This episode is hosted by Elena Sobrino. Elena is a lecturer in Anthropology at Tufts University. Her research explores volunteer work, union histories, and environmentalism in the Flint water crisis. She is currently writing about the politics of fatigue and crisis, and teaching classes on science and technology studies, ethnographies of crisis, and global racisms.

You would be forgiven that a trip to space might be one of the hardest things that a human being could do. But, it might actually be becoming a Master of Wine (MW). After all, more people have been to space than there are MWs.One such master of the grape is Beth Pearce, the head of buying at Flint Wines, who took some time from her very busy schedule of finding, trying and signing off on some of the world's finest wines to join the Country Life podcast.• Listen to Country Life podcast on Apple Podcasts• Listen to Country Life podcast on Spotify• Listen to Country Life podcast on AudibleShe was incredibly gracious in talking to me, a self-confessed wine idiot, about her career in the industry. From working at Majestic, to passing her exams to become an MW (who knew there were so many essays involved? Not me), to her work at Flint, buying some of the finest terroir-driven drops the world over and putting them on tables at the finest restaurants, hotels and private collections in the country. It's amazing to hear just how much effort and skill is required in not only producing wines, but tasting them, pairing them, and presenting them. Thankfully, Beth absolutely knows her stuff, and not only gives us a peek behind the scenes of the wine-buying world, but also offers us some take-home advice on what we can do to drink better wine, as well as get ahead of the curve.Episode creditsHost: James FisherGuest: Beth PearceEditor and producer: Toby KeelMusic: JuliusH via Pixabay Hosted on Acast.

Flint-born mower jockey Sam Gembel went from nights-and-weekends side hustle to founding Atlas Outdoor—a 110-person, two-branch landscape + snow powerhouse now adding a million in revenue each year. In his first Boardroom Buzz appearance, Sam sits down with the Blue-Collar Twins to unpack: Grass-Cutting Genesis – quitting high school, banging stripes, and learning his real job was “making crew leaders,” not mowing lawns.Rapid Ramp – $300 k ➜ $1 M ➜ $3 M in four seasons, then stalling at $5 M until a coach killed the “sell-more” dopamine loop.Pandemic Reset – why losing seven crew leaders on Day 1 of 2020 became the filter that left Atlas with A-players only.Culture Proof – six values, weekly L10s, and year-round salaries that drive a 93 % retention rate despite brutal Michigan winters.Seasonality Hacks – stacking deer control, 55 % commercial mix, and ice contracts that keep 26 trucks rolling when the air hurts your face.Significance over Success – turning deposits into payroll, mentoring operators through the Culture Proof podcast, and building opportunity “big enough for everyone's dreams.” Stick around for Sam's take on staying calm in chaos, why A-players force owners to level up, and how Shawshank Redemption explains entrepreneurial self-sabotage.

Bands Across America: Northern California Grateful Dead – Workingman's Dead (1970) & Journey – Frontiers (1983)Our journey lands in Northern California—home of counterculture trailblazers, iconic inventions, and musical legends. We spotlight two classic albums from Bay Area giants and dig into what makes the region an endless well for music lovers and explorers alike.What's Inside- Grateful Dead – Workingman's Dead (1970): Palo Alto's Grateful Dead hit a milestone with their fourth studio record—an earthy blend of roots, folk, and country rock, produced by Bob Matthews, Betty Cantor, and the band. We explore how the Dead's acoustic turn, everyday storytelling, and songs like “Black Peter” cemented their place in California music folklore. Lyrical highlights emphasize belonging and transcendence, from Uncle John as a spiritual guide to meditations on life and death.- Journey – Frontiers (1983): Born from the Bay Area's vibrant scene, Journey evolved from jazz-fusion beginnings to arena rock titans. Their 1983 album, Frontiers—driven by soaring Steve Perry vocals and Jonathan Cain's songwriting—pushed into cinematic, synth-heavy rock and delivered some of the era's most enduring pop anthems. It rocketed to #2 on Billboard, sporting unforgettable hits and an iconic music video.- Deep Question Other treasures from Northern California-Diggin'- Bush – I Beat Loneliness (2025): London's alt-rock veterans return with their 10th album, diving into emotional isolation and healing over powerful riffs and raw confessionals. Standouts: “Scars,” “The Land of Milk and Honey,” “We're All the Same on the Inside,” and lead single “60 Ways to Forget People.”- Tears For Fears – Songs from the Big Chair (1985, Vinyl): The British duo's classic, released February 25, 1985, expands their synthpop sound into grand pop-rock storytelling. Includes anthems “Shout,” “Everybody Wants to Rule the World,” and “Head Over Heels.”- Limberlost – Beautiful Scars (2025): Seattle's female-fronted rockers blend classic rock, soul, blues, and alternative on their third studio album, spotlighting dual vocalists Brittany Lauren and Sammie Gorham, and the track “Alien.”- Greet Death – Die In Love (2025): Flint, Michigan slowcore/shoegaze trio's third album finds a more balanced emotional perspective, centered on themes of love, loss, and living fully.Discover more great album picks, deep cuts, and passionate music discussion every week on the Six Picks Music Club!What do you think about these Northern California classics or our Six Picks selections?

What do you think of this episode? Do you have any topics you'd like me to cover?We all loose our cool sometimes. but teenagers can find it particularly challenging to stay calm or calm down when enraged. It takes self-awareness and skill, and a level of brain development that just isn't there for some of them.One listener contacted us for help  with her son who is being goaded by friends at school and getting into trouble for losing his temper. We talk about the brain development stage that makes this so prevalent in teens, and discuss top tips for how she can support him in managing his emotions. www.teenagersuntangled.com EXCELLENT WORKSHEET:https://www.therapistaid.com/worksheets/coping-skills-angerHere are five key tips for handling a teenager with explosive anger:Normalize the emotion: Help your teen understand that anger is a natural signal, not a problem. Explain the brain changes happening during adolescence that can make emotions intense.Create a safe space: Provide a designated area where they can express anger without judgment. This could be a room, a punching bag, or a place to play loud music and release emotions.Develop a trigger awareness strategy: Work together to identify anger triggers. Create a log to track what situations, comments, or environments set off their anger, and develop coping mechanisms.Practice emotional regulation tools: Teach breathing techniques, use a code word (like "Flint") to signal when they're becoming overwhelmed, and help them recognize physical signs of anger building up.Maintain a supportive relationship: Focus on positive reinforcement, listen without trying to immediately fix the problem, and consistently show love and understanding. Avoid punishment during angry outbursts and discuss strategies calmly when they're calm.RESOURCES USED:Yale Medicine. (n.d.). Anger, Irritability and Aggression in Kids.

"The hardship and everything I went through created the fire inside, people don't understand the woman I am." Claressa Shields Heavyweight Undisputed Champion In this powerful, no-holds-barred episode of The Pivot Podcast, the GWOAT herself—Claressa Shields—joins Ryan Clark, Channing Crowder, and Fred Taylor for one of her most personal interviews to date. From surviving a tough upbringing in Flint, Michigan to becoming the only boxer—male or female—to be undisputed in two weight classes simultaneously, Claressa shares the raw truth behind her journey. She opens up about the pain that made her, the critics that tried to break her, and the constant pressure of being a Black woman at the top of one of the most male-dominated sports in the world. But it's not all about the ring. In a deeply personal moment, Claressa reveals the reason behind two of her early dreams: Becoming an Olympic medalist and buying a bed. Sleeping on the floor most of her childhood and always having to fight for acceptance led her to fight for what she wanted. Claressa also lets us in on her private life—specifically her relationship with rapper and hip-hop legend Papoose. She talks about the bond they've built, what his steady support means to her, and how love and loyalty outside the ring fuel her fight inside of it, even opening up on motherhood in the near future. It's a side of Claressa the public rarely sees—vulnerable, grounded, and deeply human. With her next undisputed title defense set for July 26 in Detroit, Claressa shares what's driving her into this fight, why it feels more personal than ever, and how she's staying focused amid everything—from family to fame to legacy. She addresses the critics who've downplayed her success, and the media that still tries to put limits on her greatness while acknowledging that her journey is a lot like her male counterpart, Terrance Bud Crawford, who she calls he twin, not just in the fight game but in life too. This isn't just another sports interview. It's a real conversation with one of the most dominant and dynamic athletes of our time—who's still fighting for her respect, her people, and her place in history. Learn more about your ad choices.

In this week's edition of Words of Grace, we begin a two-part message titled “This Present Evil World.” Drawing from Galatians 1:4, Pastor Ben Winslett explores the painful realities of life in a fallen world—where tragedy, injustice, and sorrow are all too common.

A crisp spring evening in 1983 turned terrifying for Marika Gugliano when a "clean-cut, Joe College type" suddenly appeared behind her in an Orlando parking lot. Her attacker knocked her down, grabbed her ankles, and attempted to drag her toward a dumpster. Her screams likely saved her life—the man fled with only her slip as a trophy.This wasn't an isolated incident. Days later, another woman was assaulted in a nearly identical attack. When police caught Jeffrey Gordon, a young Navy sailor studying at the Nuclear Power School, they discovered he had been keeping bags filled with women's undergarments stolen from multiple victims. Despite the clear pattern of predatory behavior, Gordon received a relatively short sentence of four and a half years.Upon his release, Gordon returned to his hometown near Flint, Michigan, where he slipped back into society with disturbing ease. Working for his family's lawn sprinkler business, he maintained a veneer of normalcy while continuing his troubling behaviors—lifting a woman's skirt in a department store, stalking another for months. Each incident resulted in minimal consequences, with authorities failing to connect the dots to his previous Florida convictions.The breakthrough came in 2002 when investigators matched Gordon's fingerprint to evidence found at Margaret "Abby" Abbey's 1986 murder scene. Through meticulous surveillance and groundbreaking DNA analysis—extracting usable evidence from just "half a billionth of a gram" of genetic material—police finally connected Gordon to multiple cold case murders that had haunted Michigan for over fifteen years.Meanwhile, Marika rebuilt her life after trauma, finding healing through unexpected means. She learned to shoot firearms, practiced martial arts, and eventually found love with a supportive partner. Today, she lives on 20 acres in Georgia's countryside, hand-planting over 1,300 pine trees—a testament to resilience in the face of violence. Her story reminds us that while some survivors never fully escape their trauma, many find ways to reclaim their lives and create happiness despite the darkness they've endured.What other evidence might Jeffrey Gordon have left behind over the years? Listen now to discover how advances in forensic technology finally brought a dangerous predator to justice.Send us a text Support the show

Jabari Canada brings an architect's eye and a documentarian's heart to the Visual Intonation Podcast. Studying at MIT by day and telling human stories through a lens by night, Canada traces his path from interning for Congressman Elijah Cummings to filming JPEGMAFIA for MoMA PS1. His work spans political campaigns, Les Blank, experimental art, and commercial sets, but always returns to one core principle: people over policy, and the stories they carry.In this conversation, Canada talks about burning out in the commercial industry, reigniting his creative drive on the campaign trail, and the intimacy that cinematography makes possible. You'll hear how Canada moves between shooting for Nike and filming in America's most polluted zip code without losing his grounding or his voice. For Canada, the medium isn't the message—it's the bridge.Social media plays both tool and obstacle in his work. Canada reflects on how algorithms silence the voices of those most affected by injustice and how, as a filmmaker, he codes his visuals to bypass digital gatekeepers. In a world where rage and virality often win, he chooses intention, care, and community. This episode digs into how digital platforms shape political reality, and how we might reclaim that narrative frame by frame.From riding a lift with Cai Guo-Qiang in a Frank Gehry–renovated barn to filming grassroots voters in Flint, Michigan, Canada's practice is shaped by proximity and trust. Whether teaching at MIT, DP'ing a queer skateboarding documentary, or simply sitting with someone long enough for them to feel seen, Canada doesn't just record life. He lives in it—and brings us closer to the truth along the way.Jabari Canada's Website: https://www.jabaricanada.comJabari Canada's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jabari.movSupport the showVisual Intonation Website: https://www.visualintonations.com/Visual Intonation Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/visualintonation/Vante Gregory's Website: vantegregory.comVante Gregory's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/directedbyvante/ To support me on Patreon (thank you): patreon.com/visualintonations Tiktok: www.tiktok.com/@visualintonation Tiktok: www.tiktok.com/@directedbyvante
