Architect David Kahn of Jackson Kahn Design comes back to the podcast to update us on his twin daughters afflicted with juvenile Batten disease and the 2026 Take a Swing Fore Batten auction. He also sits in the spotlight to answer questions about the challenges and advantages of building estate courses for private owners (that no other golfers get to see), how he views the contemporary trend of idolizing architecture tropes of the past, how Mike Strantz has influenced his outlook on design, developing the courage to build anything he and Tim Jackson can envision and putting the art of golf course design at the center of his ambitions.

For William Allen White, the ideal Midwestern community was a utopian vision of what America could be: a prosperous, happy community built on equality, opportunity, and neighborly generosity. This anthology collects White's famous and obscure writings and presents him as the iconic voice of the Midwestern small town. William Allen White, the editor of The Emporia Gazette in Kansas, was an American institution. When he died in 1944, President Franklin Delano Roosevelt commented that America had lost one of its “wisest and most beloved editors.” White understood the value of his unique brand as “the voice of Main Street,” and would often preach his vision of the kind of nation the United States ought to be. From his view in Emporia, White's imagined Midwestern town was a dream for the nation to strive toward. He saw himself as a pioneer sowing the seeds of a great harvest to come, and he believed that the small-town civilization he venerated exemplified what was best in America. In Heartland Utopia: William Allen White on the Ideal Midwestern Town (UP of Kansas, 2026), Charles Delgadillo and Jason Stacy have gathered nearly twenty-five years of White's fiction and nonfiction focused on his idealized Midwestern community and how this utopian vision changed over time. Charles Delgadillo is a lecturer in history at the California State University, Pomona, and the author of Crusader for Democracy: The Political Life of William Allen White, published by Kansas. Jason Stacy is Distinguished Research Professor of history and social science pedagogy at Southern Illinois University, Edwardsville. His books include Spoon River America: Edgar Lee Masters and the Myth of the American Small Town and Walt Whitman's Selected Journalism. You can hear another interview with him about his Spoon River America here on the New Books Network. Daniel Moran's writing about literature and film can be found on Pages and Frames. He earned his B.A. and M.A. in English from Rutgers University and his Ph.D. in History from Drew University. The author of Creating Flannery O'Connor: Her Critics, Her Publishers, Her Readers, he teaches research and writing and co-hosts the long-running podcast Fifteen-Minute Film Fanatics, found here on the New Books Network.

Which then leads back to the theft and hacking Brian went through and discussing that an iPhone hacking tool is now in the hands of Russian spies.   We then discuss the bizarre story of the woman who is dealing with reverse porch piracy.   Brian then discusses finally setting up his ally Glasses and his first experiences with them.   Next up we discuss who is watching the watchers, meaning the peeps wearing the Meta Glasses. And we finally have a name for the facial Recognition feature coming to the Meta Glasses, it's called NameTag.       Which leads to us discussing Royal Caribbean banning Smart Glasses on its cruise ships.   Could using VoiceOver get you kicked off a United airlines flight soon?

Jeanine then fills us in on some of the big stuff coming out of Aira for this year's Conference.   Apple announced a bunch of new products this week, but are any of them worth getting? We start discussing the new M5 Mac Book Pro.  But Allison roles us right on it to the new M5 Mac book Air, as she feels that is the computer in the Mac line up to get. Which then rolls us in to discussing the new Mac Neo versus a Mac Air.

1. Operation Epic Fury – Day 3 The U.S. and Israel continue coordinated strikes on Iranian military targets. Iranian missiles, drones, and aircraft have been intercepted across the Middle East and Eastern Mediterranean. 2. Netanyahu Rejects Claims of Dragging U.S. Into War Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu states it’s “ridiculous” to claim Israel pushed the U.S. into war. Praises Trump as a strong leader acting independently based on American interests. Emphasizes Iran’s threat as “50 North Koreas” and committed to America’s destruction. 3. U.S. Intelligence: Imminent Threat Secretary of State Marco Rubio says Iranian attacks on U.S. assets were imminent. Intelligence indicated Iran planned retaliation if Israel struck its missile program. U.S. wants to prevent Iran from rebuilding missile or drone capabilities. 4. Saudi Arabia Involved Saudi Defense Ministry reports intercepting and destroying eight Iranian drones. Two drones struck the U.S. Embassy in Saudi Arabia, causing a fire but no injuries. 5. Vice President JD Vance: “No Multi-Year War” Says Trump will not allow another Iraq/Afghanistan‑style conflict. Emphasizes a clear objective: Iran must not gain or rebuild nuclear capabilities. Claims this mission avoids the “mission creep” of past wars. 6. Netanyahu Describes Trump’s Longstanding Focus on Iran Says Trump identified Iran’s nuclear ambitions as a “clear and present danger.” Describes joint U.S.-Israeli operations (“Midnight Hammer” and “Rising Line”) targeting missile sites. States negotiations failed, leaving military action as the only option. 7. Pentagon Statement by Pete Hegseth Addresses U.S. service members directly in a highly motivational speech. Frames the conflict as a generational turning point since 1979. Emphasizes: “Peace through strength” Lethality and unity of purpose Confidence in the President’s leadership Promises no endless wars and praises America’s military capability.

Professor of Journalism at USC Annenberg, Robert Kozinets, and Henry Jenkins speak with us about their ongoing book series Frames of Fandom. Both authors explore how they met, their ever-evolving work in fan studies, and what inspired them to create a 16-book series. Both scholars discuss the complexity of fandom as it intersects with consumer culture and subcultures. They even ask if fandom itself can be considered a subculture or something akin to religion! The conversation ends with a discussion of accessibility to academic texts, their choice of writing personal ethnographies throughout the books, and the future of the book series.    Here are some of the references from this episode, for those who want to dig a little deeper: Academic/Educational readings and resources: Frames of Fandom book series [Amazon Link] Netnography Unlimited Understanding Technoculture using Qualitative Social Media Research Influencers and Creators Business, Culture and Practice Convergence Culture Convergence Culture Consortium Textual Poachers People & Places: Led Zeppelin Camille Bacon-Smith Constance Penley Eric Arthur von Hippel Rogers Centre  Disneyland Haunted Mansion Jonas Brothers George Lucas Pop Mart JK Rowling Daniel Miller Michael Baxandall Angela McRobbie  Media: 2025 MLB World Series  1993 World Series CFL MLB Super Bowl LIX Labubu Reddit Facebook Star Trek Aurora monster models [Article on toys] Dark Shadows Universal Monster Films Famous Monsters of Filmland Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU)  Strange Sports Stories [Article on the comic series] Space Jam (1996) Space Jam: A New Legacy Harry Potter HBO Magic The Gathering Monster Hunter Fortnite Dragon Ball  Ford Mustang Disney Bounding [Blog Guide] ––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––Share your thoughts via Twitter with Henry, Colin and the How Do You Like It So Far? account!

Pickel-Pein, Dschungel-Drama und der heilige AltarDiese Folge ist wie ein Pflaster auf einer Wunde: Manchmal zieht es kurz, aber am Ende fühlt man sich besser. Was als schmerzhafter Exkurs über die Tücken von Pickeln in der Nase beginnt – schöpferseitig wahrlich hinterhältig – entwickelt sich rasant zu einer tiefschürfenden Analyse des diesjährigen Dschungelcamps.Während Babo und Hannes noch über die Sinnhaftigkeit von alkoholfreiem Karneval philosophieren (Spoiler: es ist laut, kalt und überall liegt Dreck), knöpfen sie sich den amtierenden Dschungelkönig Gil Ofarim vor. War der Sieg eine perfekt inszenierte Heldenreise in drei Akten oder doch das Ergebnis eines medialen Clickbaits von RTL? Die Jungs sezieren die "Verschwiegenheitserklärung", fehlende Frames in Videoaufnahmen und die Frage, ob man im Krankenhaus heimlich Insider-Infos über die Beliebtheitswerte draußen gesteckt bekommen kann.Nebenbei gibt es eine Abrechnung mit dem linearen Fernsehen und eine Redewendung der Woche, die uns tief ins Mittelalter zu Reliquien und Kirchenaltären führt. Wer hätte gedacht, dass man früher wirklich "Stein und Bein" anfassen musste, um einen Schwur zu besiegeln?Viel Vergnügen!Unterstütze uns mit einem Spotify-Abo und höre die neueste Folge früher.

Stephen Shames: A Lifetime in Photography – Lessons on Social Documentary, the Black Panthers, and Child Poverty (Part 1) Introduction In the latest episode of “10 Frames per Second,” host Molly & Joe interview legendary American photojournalist Stephen Shames. Over a 50‑year career, Shames has documented everything from the Black Panther Party to child poverty in America, testifying before the U.S. Senate and publishing twelve monographs. If you're a photographer, journalist, activist, or anyone who cares about visual storytelling, this interview is a goldmine. Below we break down the most actionable takeaways, organize them into easy‑to‑read sections, and show you how to apply Shames's methods to your own work. Who Is Stephen Shames? Fact Detail Profession Photojournalist & documentary photographer Career span 50+ years (1960s‑present) Focus Social issues – child poverty, racism, civil rights Notable achievements Testified before the U.S. Senate (1986), 42 museum collections, 12 monographs (e.g., Power to the People, Outside the Dream), new book Stephen Shames – A Lifetime in Photography – Purchase Directly with Autograph and Print from Stephen via eBay HERE Key collaborations Black Panther leader Bobby Seale, New York Times reporter Earl Caldwell, various grassroots organizations How Stephen Shames Discovered Photography College activism – While studying at UC Berkeley during the 1960s, he witnessed the civil‑rights movement and anti‑Vietnam protests. First camera purchase – After hitch‑hiking to New York's East Village, he bought a camera at a pawn shop. Choosing the “artist of the movement” – Frustrated by student‑government politics, he decided to capture the larger picture rather than be a “politician.” “I just wanted to look at the big picture and try and move people with photography.” Working with the Black Panther Party Why the Panthers Accepted a White Photographer Shared goals – Economic and social justice, not just race. Pragmatism – Panthers needed allies outside the Black community to build coalitions (Peace & Freedom Party, Young Lords, Young Patriots). Personal connection – Bobby Seale liked Shames's images and invited him to use them in the Panther newspaper. Key Facts About the Panthers (From the Interview) Founded: October 1966 (initially ~20 members). National expansion: Post‑1968, 10,000+ members, 50‑60 chapters. Community programs: “Breakfast for School Children,” feeding 10,000+ kids daily. Self‑defense model: Legal gun ownership (California) + law books; later, they shifted to “cameras are better weapons.” Lesson for Photographers Build trust by aligning with a group's mission, not merely your identity. Stephen Shames Research‑First Approach “Journalism is two‑dimensional; you need to experience the culture you want to document.” Steps to Deep‑Dive Research Read nonfiction – History, journalism, policy reports. Read fiction – Novels written by members of the community. Listen to music – Understand emotional tone and cultural references. Watch movies / documentaries – Visual language and storytelling cues. Live the bubble – Immerse yourself in daily life, food, rituals. Why It Matters Breaks the “bubble” of your own biases. Helps anticipate reactions and capture authentic moments. Stephen Shames on Building Trust & Relationships Core Principles Honesty: Be transparent about your intent. Respect: Never mock or look down on subjects (e.g., drug addicts, police). Reciprocity: Offer subjects control—let them tell you when to stop. Presence: Stay physically in the community (sleep on sofas, eat meals together). Practical Tactics Find a community “gatekeeper.” Example: a nun from Catholic Social Services who introduced Shames to Chicago projects. Sit down for a conversation before shooting – explain the project, listen to concerns. Share your work later (photos, stories) to reinforce the relationship. “If you're honest, people will accept you, even if you're a ‘liberal New York Jew.'” Bullet‑Point Checklist Identify and contact a respected local figure or organization. Explain your project in plain language. Offer a clear “opt‑out” for subjects. Spend time off‑camera – meals, conversations, errands. Follow up after the shoot with thank‑you notes or shared images. Cameras vs. Guns: The Evolution of “Weapons” 1960s‑70s: Panthers used firearms legally to patrol police. Today: Shames notes that cameras and smartphones are the most powerful weapons for exposing injustice. Why the shift? Legal restrictions on open carry. Instant global distribution of visual evidence. “The camera is a much better weapon because it puts the story directly in front of the world.” Lessons for Modern Photographers Insight How to Apply Research beyond headlines Read novels, watch local films, listen to playlists from the community. Immerse, don't observe from a distance Stay in the neighborhood for days or weeks, not just a single shoot. Earn trust through honesty Share your intent, give subjects a “stop” word, and be transparent about usage. Leverage community allies Partner with NGOs, churches, or trusted locals to gain entry. Think of yourself as a “doctor,” not a “tourist” Your presence should be accepted as part of the environment, not an intrusion. Use the camera as an activist tool Publish work on platforms that reach decision‑makers, not just art galleries. Document, don't dictate Let subjects tell their own story; avoid imposing your narrative.

The average estimated words-per-minute in a feature film is 90; His Girl Friday (1940) clocks in at 240. And yet the fast dialogue is only one of its many fascinations. Everything about it perfectly lands: the script, the casting, the camerawork, the minor players–all contribute to what can be called, without the kind of hyperbole found in the Morning Post, a perfect film. It's as cynical as Network yet as joyful as Singin' in the Rain and skewers the news-tainment complex with an affection for its perpetrators. Join us for an appreciation for one of the best.

This week on Monday Mailtime, Producer Dom explores two haunting listener experiences where the paranormal doesn't shout… it waits.First, Eleanor shares a deeply unsettling encounter during a late-night game of bowling in Leeds, where the machinery didn't just glitch, it anticipated.From self-resetting pins to a ball that rolled back on its own, the lane seemed to observe, to correct, and to quietly decide when the game was over.Then, Maria recalls a walk home through Edinburgh that turned chillingly unfamiliar.A sudden drop in temperature, unseen footsteps pacing behind her, and a thick silence that felt like a trap.She wasn't followed by a person, but by something embedded in the land itself.A place of punishment, perhaps.Forgotten by history, but not by it.These are stories where rules are bent, thresholds are crossed, and the spaces we trust.Streets, bowling alleys, familiar routines then become strangers to us.A Create Podcast Hosted on Acast.

Narrative verse, or poems that tell a story, has existed for millennia, yet the mode of writing has been neglected by literary publishers, editors, and critics in our own time. This anthology reestablishes the vital relationship of narrative verse to a contemporary readership of poetry. It presents a wide range of specimens from twenty-eight poets who were born since World War II and who published their narrative poems over the past fifty years. Featured poets include Rita Dove, Christian Wiman, Alberto Rios, A. E. Stallings, Bob Dylan, Daniel Mark Epstein, David Mason, Mary Jo Salter, and Dana Gioia, and other exemplary practitioners of the form. In these poems, character, plot, and dialogue turn up as readily as in prose fiction. As John Dryden wrote of Chaucer's works, “Here is God's plenty.” Anecdote, fable, myth, biography, thriller, Western, ghost story―these are among the many different genres of tale collected by poet-critic Sunil Iyengar, who introduces each poet and the anthology itself. Sunil Iyengar is the author of a poetry chapbook, A Call from the Shallows (Finishing Line Press). His poems and/or book reviews have appeared in such periodicals as The New Criterion, Literary Matters, New Verse Review, PN Review, Essays in Criticism, The American Scholar, The Hopkins Review, Los Angeles Review of Books, and The Washington Post. He lives outside Washington, D.C., where he works as an arts research director. Daniel Moran's writing about literature and film can be found on Pages and Frames. He earned his B.A. and M.A. in English from Rutgers University and his Ph.D. in History from Drew University. The author of Creating Flannery O'Connor: Her Critics, Her Publishers, Her Readers, he teaches research and writing and co-hosts the long-running podcast Fifteen-Minute Film Fanatics, found here on the New Books Network.

Twentieth Century (1934) is a screwball comedy that moves like a runaway train and we are delightfully tied to the tracks. John Barrymore's audacious performance as director Oscar Jaffee is awe-inspiring; Carole Lombard is equal to the task of pushing back against the man who, in a sense, created her. It's Frankenstein meets His Girl Friday; it's ninety minutes of screaming and yelling; it's filled with as many coincidences as a Wodehouse novel; it's a great portrait of theatrical types; and it's laugh-out-loud funny from the first scene to the last. Join us for a ride! Incredible bumper music by John Deley. Michael Morrison's John Barrymore, Shakespearean Actor tells the story of Barrymore's triumphs as Hamlet and Richard III, which informed his performance as the overly-dramatic Oscar Jaffee.

Are vented crawlspaces really a bad idea—and can you actually over-insulate a window frame? The crew gets fired up tackling two topics that refuse to die in building science conversations.First up is crawlspaces. The boys dig into a bit of U.S. crawlspace history, what vented crawlspaces were originally intended to do, and why they so often fail to perform as hoped. They walk through what crawlspaces should and should not do, and why climate, moisture, and enclosure strategy matter far more than tradition.Then Steve takes the lead on one of his favorite “dumb ideas”: over-insulating window frames. While improving window performance absolutely matters, the discussion makes the case that, except in very cold climates, obsessing over frame insulation can introduce new water-management risks—and distract from much bigger thermal priorities elsewhere in the enclosure.Classic UnBuild It: strong opinions, real-world building science, and a reminder to focus effort where it actually moves the performance needle.Pete's Resources:Building America Solution Center – CrawlspacesBSI-115: Crawlspaces – Either In or OutLSU La House CrawlspaceGBA Q&A on Window Frame InsulationPete Yost on Thermal Buck

1. Support for Regime Change Without “Boots on the Ground” Regime change can be morally and strategically justified when it leads to the fall of tyrannical or hostile regimes (e.g., Soviet Union, Iran). Strongly distinguishes between: Non-military or indirect regime change (diplomatic pressure, moral support, rhetoric, economic pressure) Full-scale military invasions, which the speaker opposes based on lessons from Iraq and Libya. Frames “regime change” as a concept unfairly discredited due to past U.S. military failures. 2. Historical Analogy: Reagan and the Cold War Ronald Reagan is a model: “Peace through strength,” rebuilding the military without large-scale invasions. Moral clarity and public rhetoric (e.g., “evil empire,” “tear down this wall”) are catalysts for systemic collapse. The power of words and leadership signaling can inspire dissidents inside authoritarian regimes. 3. Iran as an Active Enemy of the United States Iran is fundamentally different from prior dictatorships: Actively funds terrorism targeting Americans Governed by a theocratic regime portrayed as irredeemable Open U.S. rhetorical and moral support for Iranian protesters and dissidents. Acknowledges uncertainty and risks following a revolution but argues the status quo is worse. 4. Venezuela: Engagement With María Corina Machado A bipartisan Senate meeting with Venezuelan opposition leader María Corina Machado following her meeting with President Trump. Highlights her strategic emphasis on: U.S. unity Avoiding partisan attacks on Trump She is an effective, pragmatic opposition leader acting in Venezuela’s national interest. Strong ties between U.S. senators and Venezuelan communities, especially in Florida and Texas. 5. Trump’s Role in Global Opposition Movements Donald Trump’s leadership and rhetoric is a motivating force behind opposition movements in: Iran Venezuela Cuba These three countries are simultaneously nearing potential regime collapse or elections. Claims this could represent the most significant geopolitical shift since the fall of the Berlin Wall, while acknowledging high risks. 6. Military Operation Against Maduro (U.S. Arrest) A recent military raid targeting Nicolás Maduro: Maduro described as being protected by Cuban military forces Operation allegedly resulted in: No American fatalities Multiple enemy combatant deaths The Senator visited three wounded U.S. soldiers recovering in San Antonio. Emphasizing: Their bravery Their role in “changing the Western Hemisphere” Symbolic gestures (retrieving bullets/shrapnel as mementos) Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.

1. Cultural Debate on Santa Claus UK museum’s guidance to “decolonize” Father Christmas. Santa is criticized for being “too white” and “too male.” Suggests changes like: Santa working alongside elves to show equality. Mrs. (Mother) Christmas taking a more prominent role. Removing the “naughty or nice” list, which is framed as colonial and judgmental. Links these ideas to broader critiques of patriarchy, colonialism, and Christianity, portraying them as part of a “woke” agenda. 2. Child Rescue Operations U.S. law enforcement Operation Northern Lights, which has recovered 43 missing children in Florida and surrounding states. Highlights risks these children faced (human trafficking, exploitation, domestic violence). Frames the current administration as proactive compared to the previous one, which is accused of neglecting child safety for political reasons tied to immigration.
