Dan and Ellen talk with Carlene Hempel and Harrison Zuritsky. Carlene, a journalism professor at Northeastern, recently led a reporting trip to Flint, Michigan. Harrison and other students produced a stunning internet magazine called Flint Unfiltered that takes a deep dive into the causes and effects of Flint's economic downturn and toxic water crisis. Since 2009, Carlene has been leading students on reporting trips, where they work as part of a traveling press corps. She has taken groups to many countries, including Egypt, Syria, Cuba and Panama. Harrison, a second-year student with concentrations in journalism and data science, joined her on the Flint trip.  Like so many at Northeastern, Carlene has a background that includes academic achievement as well as wide-ranging professional experience. She has been a professor for 20 years and holds a PhD from Northeastern. She also started her career writing for The Middlesex News in Framingham, now The MetroWest Daily News, and The Boston Globe. She then moved to North Carolina, where she worked for MSNBC and The Raleigh News & Observer. Dan has Quick Take from Maine. The former owner of the Portland Press Herald is going to have three of his weekly papers printed at the Press Herald's facility in South Portland, giving a boost to the National Trust for Local News. And he's also followed through on a plan to open a café at one of his weeklies in a unique effort to boost civic engagement. Ellen weighs in on a new study of local news by our friend of the pod, Professor Joshua Darr at Syracuse University. Darr teamed up with three other researchers to do a meta analysis of surveys on media trust. They made a number of findings, but the headline is that Americans trust local newsrooms more than national news outlets. This is especially true if the local news outlet has the actual name of the community in its title. But there's a downside: that automatic trust also allows pink slime sites to take hold.

It's Friday! Sam and Emma welcome Heather 'Digby' Parton back to the program for a look at another very busy week in news. First, Sam and Emma run through updates on HHS' mass firings, Dem lawmakers' demand for the release of the abducted Tufts student, Trump's tariffs, Trump's targeting of Smithsonian over “ideology”, the Senate GOP's love for overdraft fees, HUD's wage theft, Judge Boasberg's disciplining of the Trump Administration, the scrapping of Elise Stefanik's UN role, Elon Musk's attempt to buy out the Wisconsin Supreme Court election, and Trump's executive order to cancel union contracts, also touching on Schumer's absurd messaging campaign in the wake of his budget capitulation, and watching Elise Stefanik grapple with her scrapped promotion live. Digby then joins, as she, Sam, and Emma dive right into the genuine danger between the lines of absurdity in the Trump Administration's Signal scandal, from the clear sign that they're moving away from official (documented) channels to the executive role being played by psycho-White nationalist Stephen Miller. After expanding on the horrifying aesthetic role Donald Trump is playing in the administration, and the tightening of the inner circle in Trump 2.0, Parton reflects on the genuine shock over how quickly US institutions folded to the threat of fascism, from Columbia to corporations to major law firms, and tackles the deliberate nature of the Trump Administration's agenda of economic chaos, before wrapping up by touching on the few remaining levers of power Democrats have to push back against fascism. And in the Fun Half: Sam and Emma watch as the Trump Cabinet take various unique paths to avoid any questions about the ongoing Signal Scandal, Marco Rubio unpacks exactly why due process doesn't matter, and Josh Hawley goes insane over the right to disappear student activists. They also dive into some recent controversy on the left and why playing Dave Rubin's games with you Dave Rubin's prizes, and talk with Vitor from Framingham about political conversations with right-wingers, plus, your calls and IMs!

Sean Frado's journey began in Framingham, Massachusetts, where he was immersed in martial arts from a young age, thanks to his father, a fighter and gym owner. Initially training in boxing, kickboxing, and Muay Thai, Sean's passion for combat sports grew, leading him to transition to mixed martial arts (MMA) after moving to Texas in 2003. As he honed his skills in striking, jiu-jitsu, and wrestling, Sean competed in numerous MMA fights before retiring in 2018 due to injuries. Following his retirement from fighting, Sean found a new passion in fishing. What began as a hobby soon turned into an obsession, with Sean applying the same discipline and strategic thinking from his martial arts background to fishing. He quickly gained recognition in the fishing community, sharing his catches on social media and partnering with various brands.   Today, Sean balances a full-time job with his love for fishing, aiming to compete in top tournaments like the Bassmaster Classic. His journey is a testament to resilience, perseverance, and the power of passion, both in the ring and on the water.

Founded in Framingham, Massachusetts in 1968, the Sudbury Valley School has been championing non-coercive, self-directed, democratic education for decades, and has inspired the growth of dozens of Sudbury-model schools around the world. If you're a frequent listener to the podcast, you know that three of my children attend SVS, which is a low-cost, secular, private school located about 45 minutes outside of Boston. My guest today is Mikel Matisoo, who joined the staff at Sudbury Valley School in 1988 after a brief stint as a public school teacher in New York City. His children graduated from SVS and his grandchildren now attend the school, which continues to challenge students, teachers, parents, and policymakers to think differently about education. *** Sign up for Kerry's free, weekly LiberatED e-newsletter on education trends at fee.org/liberated.
