After being released from prison, drug kingpin Frank White reasserts his power. Listen as we chat about the lamest Larry ever, a gangster buying tampons in a pre-self-checkout world, and DEI in criminal organizations. Then we see if King of New York stands the Test of Time.
On April 12th, 1961, Yuri Gagarin became the first human in space. Sixty-five years later, we celebrated that milestone at Griffith Observatory in Los Angeles, CA. We began on the lawn of Griffith Observatory, where host Sarah Al-Ahmed spoke with exhibitors about the tools, dreams, and technology that drive space exploration. Laura Tomlin, CEO of Space for Teachers, shares how microgravity research projects inspire the next generation. Robotics engineer Kalind Carpenter from NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) walks us through the machines he’s helping to build to explore the moon and beyond. Software engineer David Hernandez from Blue Origin describes the work happening at Club for the Future to get young people excited about space. Research scientist Robert Green from JPL talks about the invention of imaging spectroscopy and how it’s used to unlock the secrets of distant worlds. And aerospace engineer Andy Sadhwani, who flew to space aboard Virgin Galactic, reflects on seeing Earth from above and what the Artemis II astronauts experienced. We then move inside for Yuri's Night's evening stage show, where the focus shifts to human experience and the overview effect. Cinematographer and polar explorer Jannicke Mikkelsen, Norway's first astronaut, shares her experience as part of the first crew to orbit over both Earth's north and south poles. Space philosopher Frank White, author of "The Overview Effect," leads a panel discussion with actress Nadine Nicole from The Expanse and commercial space explorer Christopher Huie about what happens to humans when we see Earth from space. Finally, NASA astronaut Ron Garan brings it all together with a powerful vision of our planet's fragility, our interconnectedness, and humanity's potential when we work together. The episode closes with Bruce Betts' What's Up segment, revealing a little-known story about what went wrong during Yuri Gagarin's historic first flight.

"W.A.R." is a Dharma talk offered at Two Hands Sangha on the topic of the walls we build, the ways we see the world, and the responsibility we carry for what comes next. Drawing from a high school musical presentation of Hadestown, Frank White's Overview Effect, and the reality of collective action, this talk explores how fear and conditioning shape our perception and how a shift in view can change everything. When we step back for a moment the lines we thought were solid begin to soften. I hope this talk helps us all determine who we are building on behalf of and what we are building.

The Space Show Presents Frank White & Pablo Moncada-Larrotiz on Decentralized Funding For Democratizing Access to Space, Friday, 3-27-26Quick Summary:The Space Show featured a discussion about MoonDAO, a decentralized autonomous organization (DAO) that funds space-related projects, with co-founder Pablo Moncada-Larrotiz and Frank White, who is seeking to experience the “overview effect” through a spaceflight. Pablo explained how MoonDAO uses blockchain technology to raise funds and coordinate global projects, including previously funding two spaceflights. Frank discussed his lifelong ambition to experience the overview effect and his plans to study how different spaceflight experiences compare in producing this phenomenon. The conversation explored broader topics including space colonization versus settlement terminology, cultural considerations around space exploration, and the potential for AI to experience the overview effect. The discussion also touched on current space industry challenges, including Blue Origin's temporary suspension of flights and the competitive landscape among commercial space carriers.Summary:Pablo started the program and explained the concept of DAOs (Decentralized Autonomous Organizations) and shared an example of a crowd-funded effort to purchase the U.S. Constitution, which raised $47 million in one week through Ethereum transactions. He described how this same model was later applied to fund space missions, including sending two people to space and supporting over 80 community-proposed projects through a governance model.Pablo and Frank discussed their efforts to send Frank to space, including negotiations with Blue Origin and other potential carriers. They have raised nearly $1,000 so far and have researched various options from stratospheric balloons to orbital flights, including a potential lunar mission. David raised concerns about cultural issues regarding lunar missions, particularly from the Navajo Nation, which Frank acknowledged as important considerations for space exploration. Frank expressed his commitment to respecting different cultural perspectives and mentioned his work on developing outer space mediation to address such conflicts.The group discussed the terminology around space exploration, focusing on the differences between “colony,” “settlement,” and “community.” Frank explained that while “colony” carries historical connotations of exploitation, “settlement” and “community” might be more inclusive and positive terms. The discussion highlighted how language can impact people's perceptions, with Ajay noting that “colony” has negative associations for those from former colonies. The conversation also touched on governance models for off-world settlements and the potential for developing new forms of governance that could influence Earth-based systems. Frank shared insights about MoonDAO's democratic approach to space projects and questioned whether people living permanently off-world would develop a different perspective on Earth and space.Pablo explained that Frank's space mission has a 30-day fundraising deadline, with a minimum goal required for Frank to go to space, after which funds would be refunded if the goal isn't met. The mission aims to send two people to space, with anyone funding over $100 eligible to compete for a seat alongside Frank. Frank discussed his views on space exploration and nationalistic approaches, explaining that while he originally saw space exploration as a distraction from war, he now believes the focus has shifted toward national competition rather than international cooperation, which he sees as a missed opportunity.Our discussion also centered on space exploration and the placement of AI data centers, with participants debating the merits of off-planet versus Earth-based facilities. Marshall and Frank discussed Elon Musk's proposal for space-based AI centers, while David and others expressed skepticism about regulatory challenges and costs compared to terrestrial options like Meta's $27 billion facility in Louisiana. Pablo shared insights about international cooperation and competition in space, citing historical examples and drawing parallels to Olympic competitions. Frank reflected on his upcoming spaceflight and the “overview effect,” sharing his approach to experiencing weightlessness and his collaboration with Christina Starr on developing a training program for commercial astronauts.Frank discussed his plans to test whether an AI chatbot could experience the overview effect during a flight. He explained how GPT-5 created a protocol to simulate the experience, and Frank plans to implement this in a real flight setting using metaglasses or similar technology. The group discussed the potential physiological aspects of the overview effect, including the impact of weightlessness and the importance of both visual and physical sensations. Frank shared insights from his interviews with suborbital astronauts, noting that many had profound experiences despite the shorter duration of their flights.Frank then talked about the concept of the “overview effect,” comparing it to Plato's Cave and describing how astronauts experience a profound shift in perspective when viewing Earth from space. David shared his observations that some astronauts, particularly those focused on quantitative aspects of space travel, may not experience the overview effect due to being overly engaged in technical details. The discussion concluded with an acknowledgment that personal mindset and openness can influence whether someone experiences this transformative perspective shift.Our Space Show team discussed Frank White's mission to go to space and the opportunity for others to contribute through Moondao.com. Frank explained that contributions can be made through a simple website using email and debit card, with refunds provided if the mission doesn't happen. The discussion touched on the potential benefits of the overview effect, including its philosophical implications for humanity's evolution and potential impact on global cooperation. The group also explored the possibility of sending congressional leaders to space, though this would depend on future leadership and security approvals. Pablo provided information about MoonDAO's quarterly funding cycles, with a current deadline of April 9th for project proposals, and explained that research initiatives and publications tend to be well-received by the community.Special thanks to our sponsors:American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics, Helix Space in Luxembourg, Celestis Memorial Spaceflights, Astrox Corporation, Dr. Haym Benaroya of Rutgers University, The Space Settlement Progress Blog by John Jossy, The Atlantis Project, and Artless EntertainmentOur Toll Free Line for Live Broadcasts: 1-866-687-7223 (Not in service at this time)For real time program participation, email Dr. Space at: drspace@thespaceshow.com for instructions and access.The Space Show is a non-profit 501C3 through its parent, One Giant Leap Foundation, Inc.

The Space Show Presents Bob Zimmerman, Tuesday, 3-24-26!Quick Summary:This space show program focused primarily on NASA Administrator Jared Isaacman's comprehensive restructuring of the Artemis lunar program, which includes three phases of lunar surface operations, the pausing of the Lunar Gateway project, and increased reliance on private sector partnerships. Bob Zimmerman provided detailed analysis of the new plan, noting its logical structure and focus on engineering rather than just science, while expressing some concerns about NASA's potential over-involvement in private sector operations. The discussion also covered NASA's plans for a nuclear-powered Mars mission, the status of commercial space station development, and current progress on lunar spacesuits and rovers. Other topics included China's and India's space station programs, the potential for lunar water ice at the poles, and the broader implications for commercial space development and launch capabilities.Detailed Summary:Our guest, Bob Zimmerman, focused on discussing NASA's recent announcements, particularly regarding the Artemis program and plans for a nuclear reactor on Mars. Bob shared his experience watching an 8-hour NASA TV broadcast about these plans. The group also discussed a potential Friday show featuring Frank White, who is seeking funding to go to space on a Blue Origin rocket, and mentioned an upcoming Sunday interview with the CEO of TransAstra, who is working on asteroid retrieval projects.Bob discussed his review of NASA presentations, focusing on Jared Isaacman's restructuring of the Artemis lunar program. He explained that the program has been reorganized into three phases: initial infrastructure establishment, foundational components, and long-term human occupancy. The new plan pauses the Luna Gateway project and aims to phase out SLS, with private sector involvement in launch facilities. He noted that the first manned mission is planned for 2028, and the third phase is expected to begin around 2033.Bob detailed NASA's plans to phase out SLS and transition to private sector alternatives like SpaceX's Starship and Blue Origin's New Glenn. He explained NASA's approach to restructure the ISS program through an “evolutionary assembly” design involving a core module with multiple docking ports, which could benefit companies like Axiom. He also covered NASA's plans for nuclear propulsion to Mars, though he expressed skepticism about the ambitious timeline to launch by the end of 2028, noting this would be largely a government-led project.Bob discussed NASA's new approach under Administrator Isaacman, emphasizing the focus on using private sector resources more efficiently rather than wasting money on previous programs like SLS and Luna Gateway. He explained that Congress had already approved the reconfiguration through the NASA authorization bill, giving Isaacman significant freedom to implement changes. Our guest expressed growing admiration for Isaacman's political strategy in gaining congressional support while moving the program away from inefficiencies, though he noted concerns about potential budgetary issues and congressional interference.Our Wisdom Team discussed NASA's lunar exploration plans and budget allocation. Ajay and Bob agreed that while the overall $25 billion NASA budget was sufficient, previous waste on projects like Orion had created opportunities for reallocation toward more productive initiatives. Bob noted that while the third phase plans were preliminary and might change, the overall approach was intelligent and step-by-step, with NASA recognizing that early stages could evolve significantly. The discussion also covered Intuitive Machines' lunar lander redesign and Jared Isaacman's ambitious plan for 30 unmanned lunar landers over three years, though Robert expressed skepticism about meeting this timeline given past commercial landing failures.Bob discussed the potential minimal opposition to a new lunar program that relies on private sector development rather than NASA projects. He noted that while the South Pole was mentioned as a potential landing site, NASA is also considering alternatives, particularly easier locations near the equator for early missions. He also expressed concerns about the upcoming Artemis II mission, describing it as out of sequence and potentially risky, while emphasizing that the new program announced appears to prioritize engineering over science.Robert discussed NASA's new lunar program, emphasizing its focus on engineering rather than science, which represents a significant cultural shift. He noted that while the program builds on existing concepts, the overall structure is more coherent and designed to inspire public interest in space exploration. He expressed concerns about NASA's potential over-involvement in private sector projects, worrying this could lead to empire building and reduce private sector innovation. The team debated whether NASA's involvement in oversight roles was necessary for congressional reporting or could potentially stifle private sector development.The group discussed the upcoming Artemis II flight, scheduled for April 1st with a six-day launch window through April 6th. Bob explained that while lunar missions have relatively short windows, they are more flexible than Mars missions which only occur every two years. The discussion also touched on the technical considerations for lunar launches, including optimal lighting conditions for landing site visibility and the need to avoid nighttime during extended missions. The conversation concluded with a brief discussion about TransAstra planned asteroid mission, which our guest noted was in early stages and preliminary in nature.Robert and Ajay discussed the technical details of nuclear propulsion systems, clarifying the differences between nuclear thermal and nuclear electric propulsion. Robert expressed skepticism about the timeline for the SR1 mission, noting that deploying helicopters on Mars would be a significant challenge. The conversation then shifted to the presence of water ice at the Moon's South Pole, with Robert sharing recent data suggesting lower quantities than previously expected. Ajay suggested that looking below the surface might provide more information, and the discussion ended with David asking about the commercial activities planned for lunar bases.Zimmerman explained that NASA's lunar base program is primarily government-funded and not focused on profitability, but its goal is to stimulate private sector involvement in space, potentially leading to commercial activities like data centers or manufacturing. He discussed the potential of AI data centers in space, noting that while many such projects may fail due to over-investment, the demand for launch services will drive significant innovation in the rocket industry. He emphasized that the paradigm shift in space travel came with the successful landing of a rocket's first stage, which has paved the way for reusable rockets and lower costs, ultimately benefiting the development of space stations and other commercial activities in space.Bob provided an overview of global space station developments, highlighting China's government-run program, India's efforts to build its own station with potential private enterprise involvement, and Russia's ambitious but potentially delayed plans. He discussed NASA's five competing American space station projects and their potential integration with a core module concept proposed by Isaac Man. The group also addressed lunar exploration progress, including the development of spacesuits by Axiom and rovers by various private companies, with NASA considering how to coordinate these technologies for future lunar missions.Special thanks to our sponsors:American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics, Helix Space in Luxembourg, Celestis Memorial Spaceflights, Astrox Corporation, Dr. Haym Benaroya of Rutgers University, The Space Settlement Progress Blog by John Jossy, The Atlantis Project, and Artless EntertainmentOur Toll Free Line for Live Broadcasts: 1-866-687-7223 (Not in service at this time)For real time program participation, email Dr. Space at: drspace@thespaceshow.com for instructions and access.The Space Show is a non-profit 501C3 through its parent, One Giant Leap Foundation, Inc.

The EpisodeFrank White has spent decades unpacking something astronauts struggle to describe — the instant you see Earth not as a place you stand on but as the vessel carrying all of us through space.In this first part, Frank traces the roots of the space age — Sputnik, Apollo, Earthrise — and how those shocks and images rewired our sense of ourselves. He shows how global conflict, national pride, and scientific leaps all converge in that fragile blue sphere rising over the lunar horizon.This isn't just the story of a photograph.

This week, the dads descend into King of New York, the neon-slick crime drama that turns Manhattan into a fever dream of violence, power, and warped justice.Walken plays Frank White, a freshly released drug lord who wants to “give back” — but only by murdering every rival and funding a hospital with blood money. His crew? Mostly Black. His moral compass? Bent beyond repair. His dance moves? Still pure Walken.What we coverCrime and capitalism: Frank's twisted logic — kill the competition, save the city.The Walken mystique: Dead eyes, slick hair, spontaneous robot dances.Larry Fishburne's “Jimmy Jump”: One of the great chaotic sidekicks — all swagger, coke, and AK-47s.Cops vs crooks: Caruso and Snipes as furious detectives who decide to skip due process and go full vigilante.Ferrara's vision: A New York that's nihilistic, sweaty, and corrupt from top to bottom.The politics of power: Race, class, loyalty, and the delusion of doing “good” through evil.The ending: Blood, subways, and one of Walken's best death scenes — calm, eerie, inevitable.Why listen?Because it's peak Bad Dads territory: a film that's stylish, sleazy, and morally bankrupt, yet impossible to look away from. We argue about whether Frank's warped Robin Hood act has any truth to it, trade notes on 1990s cop-movie chaos, and try to work out how this didn't end every actor's career.
“Do yourself a favor. Take a kid fishing.” That's a quote from a man named Frank White, who produced a show called Southern Sportsman. He would say those words at the end of every broadcast. Psychologists would agree with his suggestion. Fishing gives your son an opportunity to be outside, practice problem-solving skills, and connect with others. One study even found that combat veterans who went to a fly fishing retreat slept better and showed less symptoms of stress. It's fairly easy and cheap to get started. Many public libraries have rods and reels to check out for free. Go to your state's game and fish department website and find a local body of water. Then, cast a line out with your son, and marvel together at God's amazing creation. For more ideas to raise boys to become godly men, visit Trail Life USA or RaisingGodlyBoys.com.

Frank White Recall Means Chiefs and Royals Can't Wait Any Longer | Mundo Clip 10-2-25See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Frank White Jr. has been unseated as Jackson County Executive after losing a special recall election on Tuesday. However, he's fighting the election in court, while county legislators move forward with picking his replacement — a process that could include little public input.
I can think of a thousand things that if they were shutdown today I would notice. The federal government isn't one of them. So here we go, will this be another shutdown about nothing that we all forget about or will President Trump make this a shutdown to remember? Frank White is out as Jackson County Executive... wait until you hear how badly he got smoked at the polls. Now, who's next and what does it mean for the Royals and Chiefs. At the same time, a lawsuit in Missouri is likely headed to the state's Supreme Court to keep the Royals and Chiefs from using tax revenue to build. Kansas schools are becoming the embarrassment of the land as a young, portly principal with blue hair at an Olathe grade school takes a liberal stand. And a sex ed teacher in Derby is arrested for child endangerment. Why is this happening in Kansas so often and not Missouri? The teenager that attacked the usher at T-Mobile Center ten days ago has been charged on two counts of assault but his real punishment may be coming from his school. The Chiefs have the top cornerback in the league through four games and it's not Trent McDuffie. Sporting KC makes a big, bold hire to run soccer operations. Tom Watson has some very strong opinions about the fans at the Ryder Cup while Paul Azinger has strong words for Rory McIlroy. And our Final Final is a new bridge that is the highest and longest in the world.

Author Frank White has interviewed well over 100 astronauts. Almost all of them report the sense of awe they experienced as they looked down or back at Earth, and how deeply this has affected their understanding and appreciation of our planet and the Cosmos. It’s what author Frank White calls The Overview Effect. Frank joined Planetary Society Senior Communications Adviser Mat Kaplan for a deep conversation about the ideas he shares in his book of the same name, now in its fourth edition. Here’s a great introduction to the Universe-spanning yet very personal ideas Frank has shared.

The Department of Justice is convening a Grand Jury as they investigate the Russia hoax. It's believed this will take place in Florida but don't get too excited that you'll see Barack Obama in an orange jumpsuit any time soon. Sydney Sweeney has now been outed as full on Republican and this likely explains why the left went nuts about her jeans commercial. But sweet Syd is just a reflection of her generation and that's the real problem for Dems. Frank White could be voted out of office in Jackson County as a special election is set for September 30. The Royals fall in Boston as Bailey Falter gets bombed in his first start for KC. The Chiefs are favored in every game this year. The Coaches poll is out in college football and only one of our area teams is ranked. There's drama at training camps for the Browns and Cowboys and an NHL mascot is too much for a giant bear.

On a day www.fox4kc.com reports that if the Royals leave it will be Mayor Q's fault, we learn that Frank White has blown it again for Jackson County. If/when the Royals and Chiefs leave the sports complex, it will definitely be more of a Frank White problem than the mayor. In a recent letter to the governor, White offers to cut off the Royals completely AND lower the money the Chiefs get from a 3/8 cent sales tax. Between he two of them, it has to be over in Jackson County. I met a friend yesterday, not a conservative, and we had a chatty waiter. What happened when the waiter asked what I do for a living was an eye opening moment for the young man, if only he wanted to open his eyes. I was literally talking to two people that will save $16,800 between them in federal taxes next year and don't believe it's true. The Kansas economy is ranked third to the bottom of states in the country, the first lady is helping Trump with his Russia policy and Lambert Field in St. Louis had a waiting line out the door almost to I-70 yesterday. In sports, the Big Dumper wins the home run derby, the Royals have the easiest schedule in the league the rest of the way and Fox Sports 1 fires almost everybody. Then, our Final Final is buyer beware if you're trying to become an extra on the set of Ted Lasso filming in KC.
