Carnegie Mellon University is opening a new campus in Miami, thanks to a $3 billion gift from hedge fund manager Ken Griffin. It's the largest single donation ever made to a U.S. university. Host Megan Harris, executive producer Mallory Falk, and contributor and City Paper Managing Editor Colin Williams discuss the school's Florida expansion (spring breaaaaaaak forever), Griffin's status as a GOP megadonor, and why so many colleges are opening branch campuses in the Sunshine State. Plus, Mayor Corey O'Connor just released his proposed city budget — long story short, our finances are still looking pretty bleak — paid parental leave is one step closer to reality in Allegheny County, and a long-lost candy bar gets resurrected just in time for Halloween. And in our members-only bonus segment, we take you on a tour of former Steelers coach Mike Tomlin's truly massive virtual city in Minecraft.

Leave an Amazon Rating or Review for my New York Times Bestselling book, Make Money Easy!Check out the full episode: https://greatness.lnk.to/1578DMDr. Ellen Langer's decades of research shows our mindsets directly impact physiology, evidenced by her landmark study where elderly men regained youthful strength and cognition simply by living one week as their younger selves. She posits we must challenge the harmful tendency to cling to absolutes since external realities are constantly changing, so mindful awareness of novelty is key to wellbeing. Dr. Langer stresses that psychology, not just biology, will be the future of medicine as data continues to demonstrate that presuppositions shape our bodies, but most still fail to recognize mind-body unity. By revealing the fallacy of certainty, she hopes to revolutionize how we perceive and thus experience aging, illness and the inevitability of change.Sign up for the Greatness newsletter!

What if the reason you can't get pregnant has as much to do with his health as yours? Most fertility conversations start and end with a woman's eggs and her age. Yet close to 80% of IVF cycles don't end in a live birth, and couples are spending $25,000 a round to find that out. Today I'm joined by fertility specialist Dr. Gabriela Rosa, who has spent 25 years helping couples who've been trying for four years or more. She explains why fertility is a team sport, how drinking, smoking, toxins, and age drive sperm DNA fragmentation, and why preconception care really takes 12 months, not three. Gabriela also shares her fertility method, which produced a 78.8% live birth rate in couples who felt they'd tried everything. You'll also learn why small daily moments of joy may matter more than you think. If you or someone you love is trying to conceive, this conversation offers a clear, hopeful place to start. "Act pregnant now to get pregnant later, having in mind that you already have within you right now 50% of the little baby that you want to create." ~ Dr. Gabriela Rosa In This Episode: - Root causes of infertility & why fertility is a team sport - How men's drinking and THC affect outcomes - What causes sperm DNA fragmentation? - The impact of toxin exposure on fertility - Metabolic health, PCOS, and preconception care - Hormones and why testosterone backfires - Gaps in conventional fertility care - Dr. Rosa's F.E.R.T.I.L.E.

Jeffrey Epstein's entanglement with Leon Black and Larry Summers runs through the Jeffrey Epstein VI Foundation and its flagship project, the Institute for New Economic Thinking (INET), born out of the wreckage of the 2008 financial crisis. Black, the billionaire Apollo founder, bankrolled INET with roughly $25 million and installed himself as its chief patron, while Summers — fresh off his controversial presidency at Harvard and a career bouncing between Wall Street and Washington — became one of its intellectual faces. Epstein, already a convicted sex offender by 2008, quietly emerged as a financial conduit and behind-the-scenes broker for INET and its affiliates, using donor networks, shell foundations, and elite access to move money and cultivate influence. Through Epstein's foundation, funds were routed into academic projects, conferences, and research hubs that placed him back inside elite academic circles that had supposedly shut him out, laundering his reputation through economics, philanthropy, and intellectual respectability.What makes the IPI/INET web so corrosive is how thoroughly it fused money, power, and reputational cover. Black would later admit paying Epstein $158 million for “tax advice,” an explanation so implausible it collapsed under its own weight, while Summers maintained institutional ties to projects and donors connected to Epstein long after his 2008 conviction was public record. Epstein was not a peripheral donor — he was a facilitator, recruiter, and fixer who connected hedge-fund money, Ivy League legitimacy, and political access in a closed loop that insulated all participants from scrutiny. The IPI ecosystem gave Epstein exactly what he needed after Florida: proximity to young academics, international travel, visa sponsorships, and an elite shield that made him look like a disgraced financier turned reformed intellectual benefactor. It wasn't an accident, and it wasn't ignorance — it was a deliberate system where billionaires, former Treasury secretaries, and a convicted predator all found mutual benefit inside the same polished academic machine.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.
As a freshman at Yale in the spring of 1974, Dan Schlesinger broke the school's record in the 6-mile run. That record was previously held by a guy named Frank Shorter. Remember this for your next running trivia game.Schlesinger did much more in his running career, and also on the long, twisting path that eventually led to his current work as a fine artist. In the 1982 NYC Marathon, Schlesinger came out of seemingly nowhere to finish third in 2:11:54. He was beaten only by Alberto Salazar and Rodolfo Gomez. The next spring Schlesinger placed eighth at Boston with a personal best time of 2:11:37.That made him a strong contender in the 1984 Olympic Marathon Trials, and Schlesinger was super-fit, as he describes in this podcast. But sometimes things don't always work out the way you hope. He had similar bad luck in preparing for the 1988 Trials.Then he got on with life, finding a job as a translator in Korea and gaining his legal degree at Harvard. This career path didn't excite Schlesinger, so he began dabbling in various art forms.One thing led to the next, and he eventually gained the assignment to illustrate all the Harry Potter books in Japan. These volumes sold more than 20 million copies, and launched Schlesinger into the fulltime art work he has pursued ever since. Indeed, his newest project is an illustrated book out in mid October that's called Injury Blues And The Red Running Shoes. It's personal, colorful, humorous at times, and intended to inspire injured runners to believe they'll soon be back on the road again. Like Dan himself.To see a portfolio of Schlesinger's artwork, go here. WHERE TO FIND "RUNNING: STATE OF THE SPORT"Use your smartphone to download our podcast from Apple, Spotify, or YouTube Podcasts.

Robin is the Head of Technology Investment Banking at Oppenheimer & Co. Inc., where he leads a 50-banker team spanning 12 tech verticals. He has 30+ years of investment banking experience advising high-growth technology companies on M&A and capital raising.Topics:AI in Investment BankingTech Market OutlookStrategically Hiring Senior TalentBuilding a Collaborative Culture...and so much more.Top TakeawaysGrowth opportunities are increasingly coming from venture-backed targets. Most of the M&A activity Robin's team is seeing isn't traditional buyouts but portcos making strategic acquisitions to build out their existing platforms. Oppenheimer's recent sale of Kentik to PE-backed Infoblox is one example. For sponsors, it's a reason to look beyond the traditional add-on universe when building their M&A pipelines.The best use of AI may be capacity creation rather than headcount reduction. Oppenheimer is using an internal analytics tool to offload model-building, SEC data pulls, and other repetitive work. Robin sees the payoff not as needing fewer bankers, but as giving the existing team more capacity to process transactions and spend time with clients. The practical opportunity is to identify where AI can remove execution bottlenecks, then deliberately reinvest that capacity rather than treating efficiency as the end goal.High-stakes moments are built through low-stakes repetition. Robin learned that lesson rowing at Harvard, where months of repetitive training came down to a handful of six-minute races. Dealmaking requires the same discipline: keep doing the work when the payoff is distant, so you're ready when the moment that matters arrives.About Oppenheimer & Co. Inc.Oppenheimer & Co. Inc. is a full-service investment bank and wealth manager.

You guys… I'm literally not OK. My new bestie Ray is in the studio, and this one is pure chaos.We met IRL for the first time at a party last weekend. Within five minutes he was basically on my lap, and by the end of the night we'd both fought for the attention of a Harvard-educated eye surgeon. Ray also stole a chicken parm sandwich, got lost on the PATH, and ended up stranded in Jersey City. Iconic behavior.We get into the stye saga (Ray is officially the face of the stye community), the influencers talking during US Open matches, why Dancing with the Stars is just TikTok, and who we're rooting for this season.

Fish Oil, Full-Spectrum Omega-3s, and Immunometabolism with Dr. Jeffrey Bland: Dr. Ronald Hoffman interviews Dr. Jeffrey Bland, founder of the Personalized Lifestyle Medicine Institute and Big Bold Health, about fish oil and omega-3 science. Bland recounts becoming involved with commercial fish oil in 1980 while promoting MaxEPA amid the “fat is bad” era and discusses Greenland Inuit research showing high omega-3 blood levels and low heart disease. They contrast whole-food omega-3 intake with highly refined EPA/DHA products, highlighting additional constituents in minimally processed oils (vitamins A and D, astaxanthin) and precursor compounds related to specialized pro-resolving mediators. Bland describes Omega-3 Rejuvenate's Alaska line-caught sourcing and low-heat, chemical-free processing, and addresses concerns about mercury, microplastics, and vitamin A dosing. The conversation also covers PLMI's focus on immunometabolism, a CBC-derived SIRI marker, omega-3 insufficiency data from Fullscript, mitochondrial membrane support by DHA, and Bland's upcoming book, “The Nourished Gene.”

In December 2020, a neurologist at the Pitié-Salpêtrière told Olivier Goy he had ALS, Charcot's disease. No cure. Three to five years. He spent four months on the floor. Then a sentence came to him, so simple it almost made him laugh: if I stay depressed, I punish myself twice.Olivier founded 123Venture in 2000, with nine months of professional experience, to open private equity to ordinary savers, then co-founded October to finance small and medium businesses. Since his diagnosis he has become an ambassador of the Paris Brain Institute and has raised more than €4.5 million for research through a film, Invincible été, a book, Invincible, written with Anne Fulda, a concert at the Olympia, La Fresque Généreuse and now Invincible Hope. In this episode he speaks through Invincible Voice, a tool built with the researchers of Kyutai that rebuilt his voice from recordings made before the disease took it, and that he made open source for every patient.Last year I took part in a campaign where leaders spoke publicly about the things we are trained to hide, and I shared my own story. It was one of the most liberating things I have done. Olivier has taken this further than anyone I know. I came to this conversation expecting to talk about courage. Olivier gave us something rarer: a method for loving life.In our conversation, we explore:→ From Annemasse to Paris: building two companies as an outsider, and why legitimacy comes from being useful→ The diagnosis, the four months on the floor, and the decision that turned him into a fighter→ Leading without a voice or a stride: how ALS rewrote his definition of leadership→ Why people do not follow the invulnerable: leadership as a mission, visible cracks and generosity→ AI that gives back: Invincible Voice, patient data at the Paris Brain Institute, and the Invincible Hope mural at Mount Sinai in New York"The door that looks locked is usually just heavy. Push it. Legitimacy is not granted to you, you take it by being useful."

What if ninety seconds on a dance floor could do what ten years of therapy couldn't? In this episode, Emily Fletcher sits down with Sah D'Simone, a spiritual teacher, humanitarian, and bestselling author whose approach to healing was forged through over 300 days of silent meditation, clinical spiritual care training at Cedars-Sinai Hospital, and years of direct service in the margins. Sah is the creator of the Somatic Activated Healing (SAH) Method and founder of the Somatic Dance Institute, and his work has drawn collaborations with Harvard, Columbia, and the UN. They trace Sah's path from meditation teacher to dance mystic: the night in Bali when a trance on the dance floor cracked him open into a full-body recognition of strangers dancing beside him, the year his mother died and everything he'd built around joy fell apart, and why he believes talking about trauma can trap you in a cycle of blame while dancing it moves the charge all the way through. They also get into how Christian missionaries turned the god of dance into the devil, the nuanced difference between chasing pleasure and finding it inside whatever is true, and why no feeling, however big, is the one that finally breaks you. In this episode, Sah explores: Why talking about your trauma can trap you in a cycle of blame, while dancing it moves the charge all the way through The night in Bali when a trance on the dance floor cracked him open into a full-body recognition of strangers he'd apparently known before How Christian missionaries turned Pan, the god of dance and revelry, into the image of the devil The difference between chasing pleasure as an escape and finding the ecstasy inside whatever is true, even rage or grief What his mother's death taught him about prayer, pain, and the limits of visualization A Vipassana retreat gone sideways, and the wave of full-body release that followed once he stopped resisting Opening for a DJ with five minutes' notice, and the closest he has come to a physical experience of the divine on a stage Why no feeling is too big to survive, and what actually makes people exhausted Key Moments: 00:00 – Emily's introduction: from meditation teacher to dance mystic, and why Harvard and Columbia came calling 03:02 – Why the most prestigious universities on the planet are studying his work 05:10 – His mother's death, and the six months of "sanctioned insanity" that followed 07:48 – The Osho line: why a woman dancing is closer to God than a man meditating 08:40 – Why talking about your trauma can trap you in a cycle of blame and victimhood 14:11 – How Christian missionaries turned Pan, the god of dance, into the devil 19:40 – The night in Bali when dance cracked him open into a past-life recognition on the floor 27:06 – 2020, and the moment "the goddess" rewired his entire career overnight 28:00 – "Part rave, part ritual": why the fastest, most industrial beats create the safest place to disappear 30:47 – His pushback on spiritual bypassing in ceremony culture, and Emily's response 40:34 – What his mother's death taught him about pain, prayer, and the edges of joy 42:27 – A Vipassana retreat, "princess and the pea," and the full-body release that followed 44:23 – The Iceland eclipse festival, and opening for a DJ with five minutes' notice 49:31 – The first-ever multi-day festival at the pyramids, and the Egypt eclipse he's building toward in 2027 51:16 – What he'd say to the exhausted parent of three who says they don't have time to dance 54:05 – His one request: dance to a single song, eyes closed 58:04 – A Lakota elder's line: all the suffering on the planet traces back to uncried tears About Sah D'Simone Sah D'Simone is a spiritual teacher, humanitarian, and bestselling author of Spiritually Sassy and Spiritually, We.

Happy Coffee Day! ☕ Fueled up on joe, we're tackling a massive full-show roundup of today's wildest headlines!
Christians often say that God owns everything and that what we possess has simply been entrusted to our care. We apply that principle to our income, savings, investments, and giving. But we may treat another significant asset differently: the equity in our homes.Harlan Accola, who leads the reverse mortgage team at Movement Mortgage, joined the show today to discuss why homeowners—particularly those approaching or already in retirement—should consider home equity as part of their overall stewardship plan.Home Equity Is Still Part of Your WealthFor generations, many families have followed a familiar pattern: buy a home, pay off the mortgage, and eventually leave the house to their children.That goal is certainly not wrong. But Harlan says tradition can sometimes cause us to mentally separate home equity from the rest of our financial resources.“The home equity is wealth,” he explained.That does not mean every homeowner should borrow against a home's value. Rather, it means home equity deserves to be considered alongside retirement accounts, savings, investments, and other assets when evaluating the resources God has entrusted to us.That consideration has become increasingly important as home values have risen.Harlan pointed to research from Harvard's Joint Center for Housing Studies showing that many older Americans have accumulated substantial equity in their homes. In some cases, homeowners may have more wealth tied up in their houses than they have available in retirement accounts and other liquid assets.That can create an unusual situation: someone may appear financially secure on paper while struggling to generate enough monthly cash flow for ordinary expenses.Should the House Always Be Left to the Children?Another common assumption is that parents should leave the family home to their children free and clear.Again, that can be a worthy goal. But Harlan encourages families to consider it within the broader purpose of stewardship.Scripture places tremendous emphasis on the spiritual legacy we leave behind—our faithfulness, wisdom, example, teaching, and love for God and others. Financial resources may certainly be part of an inheritance, but they are not the only inheritance that matters.That raises several important questions:Could some of the wealth stored in a home help meet legitimate retirement needs? Could it help provide for a surviving spouse? Could it reduce unnecessary financial pressure? Could it create opportunities for generosity while someone is still alive?Those questions do not automatically lead to the same answer for every family. The point is to prayerfully evaluate the home as part of the entire financial picture rather than assuming it must remain untouched simply because that has traditionally been the plan.In many families, adult children may also care far more about their parents having financial stability and appropriate care later in life than about preserving every dollar of home equity for an eventual inheritance.House Rich, but Cash-Flow PoorOwning substantial home equity does not necessarily mean retirement expenses are easy to manage. Harlan says he regularly encounters older homeowners with significant equity who nevertheless struggle to cover monthly expenses or unexpected repairs.He also noted that many older homeowners still carry mortgages well into retirement. When housing costs consume a large portion of a household's income, even someone with considerable home equity can experience financial strain.That distinction matters. A home may represent considerable net worth, but equity alone does not pay the electric bill, replace an air-conditioning system, cover healthcare expenses, or buy groceries.That is why you shouldn't evaluate home equity in isolation from the rest of a retirement plan.Start With Your Goals, Not a Financial ProductConsidering home equity does not mean immediately pursuing a reverse mortgage or any other particular strategy.In fact, Harlan recommends beginning somewhere else entirely. “Start with the big picture,” he said.Consider everything God has entrusted to you—your income, retirement savings, investments, home, other assets, obligations, needs, family circumstances, and goals.Then ask what those resources are meant to accomplish. A wise stewardship plan starts with the goals, not the financial product.For some homeowners, the best decision may be to leave their home equity untouched. For others, accessing some portion of it may become one tool among many to support retirement needs, care for a spouse, reduce financial pressure, or accomplish other important goals.Whatever the decision, the larger principle remains the same: our homes are not outside the boundaries of stewardship.They, too, are resources entrusted to us by God. The question is not simply, “How much equity do I have?” A better question may be, “How can I faithfully steward everything God has placed in my hands?”To learn more about the home-financing options available through Movement Mortgage, including reverse mortgages, visit FaithFi.com/Movement.On Today's Program, Rob Answers Listener Questions:My sister passed away four years ago and left most of her assets to her daughter through transfer-on-death designations, but one bank account was left out. The balance is under $10,000, and the bank says it must go through probate. Is that correct, and how can we stop the account from losing money to inactivity fees?I'm 55, married, and we earn about $120,000 a year. After expenses, we have about $500 left each month, around $20,000 in a 401(k), and we're building a three-month emergency fund. What should we do with the extra $500?I'm working two jobs and earning about $20,000 to $25,000 a year while saving for a home. What mortgage rate should I be looking for, and how do I know whether a loan offer is affordable?I have a 5.25% mortgage, two higher-interest car loans, and a medical bill that will soon start charging high interest. I've been offered a consolidation refinance at about 6.25% that would combine everything into one payment. Would that be wise, or should I keep the debts separate?Resources Mentioned:Become a FaithFi PartnerMovement MortgageMaster Your Money: A Step-by-Step Plan for Experiencing Financial Contentment by Ron Blue with Michael BlueFaithful Steward: FaithFi's Quarterly MagazineFaithFi Field Guide: How Much Money is Enough?

Trust + Communication + Authentic Action are the oxygen for great cultures. How we communicate either builds trust or deteriorates it. For full show notes visit: https://www.jasonvbarger.com/podcast/how-cultures-impact-communication/ Jason breaks down why communication is the ultimate driver of organizational health, revealing the daily habits needed to build high-trust, high-performing cultures. Please rate and review the podcast to help amplify these messages to others! Summary: With global employee engagement plummeting and 57% of workers citing distrust in leadership as a reason to leave their jobs, organizations face a critical communication crisis. In this solo episode of The Thermostat, Jason V. Barger unpacks the direct correlation between how leaders communicate and the overall health of their corporate culture. If communication is the oxygen that fuels performance, top-down, command-and-control methods are the toxic air suffocating modern teams. This conversation moves past surface-level communication tips to address the core mechanics of establishing psychological safety in the workplace. Jason explores his foundational maxim, "what we allow lingers and what we teach triggers," illustrating how ignoring toxic communication automatically defaults it to standard culture. Relying on Harvard's three primary drivers of trust—logic, empathy, and authenticity—Jason outlines a proactive framework for replacing one-way corporate spin with authentic, two-way dialogue. Essential listening for C-Suite executives, HR directors, and team leaders committed to shaping compelling cultures, this episode offers actionable insights on mastering the art of listening, leveraging value-driven storytelling, and finding the courage to address the unspoken issues limiting your team's success. Episode Notes & Timestamps: Intro: Jason sets the stage for a critical discussion on how communication serves as the oxygen for every great culture. A Call for Authentic Reviews: Jason thanks the OGs and new listeners, reminding the audience how authentic reviews help combat AI noise and amplify positive messages. Thermostat Cultures Live 2026: An exciting preview of the upcoming 10th-anniversary hybrid event featuring thought leaders like Owen Fitzpatrick and Rebecca Hinds. The Engagement Crisis: A look at recent workplace studies revealing staggering levels of distrust and why poor communication is the primary culprit. Allow Lingers, Teach Triggers: Deconstructing how toxic leadership behaviors fester when ignored, and how intentional communication sets a new temperature. The Three Drivers of Trust: Breaking down Harvard's research on why logic, empathy, and authenticity must filter every organizational message. Confronting Conflict: Why avoiding difficult conversations deteriorates trust, and how to make the "mentionable manageable." Habit 1: The Best Communicators Listen: Why taking a posture of curiosity and asking questions is a leader's ultimate superpower. Habits 2, 3 & 4: The necessity of clear repetition, the power of value-driven stories, and having the courage to address the unspoken organizational sharks. Questions to Ponder: Jason challenges listeners to evaluate where trust is currently being lost in their culture due to communication breakdowns. Key Takeaways for Leaders: Filter Your Message: Ensure every communication is driven by logic (explaining the why), empathy (creating a two-way street), and authenticity (eliminating corporate spin). Address the Unspoken: Trust cannot grow in an environment of avoidance. Leaders must have the courage to address the difficult topics and conflict dragging the team down. Listen Before Leading: Command-and-control communication creates disengagement. Shift your approach to active listening to trigger positive, collaborative habits across your ecosystem.

Texas A&M holds a green light rating for its speech policies and still fell from 47th to 192nd in this year's College Free Speech Rankings. Harvard climbed from 245th to 71st without changing a single policy, a sign that how leadership responds to speech controversies matters more than what is written in the handbook. In this episode of the Changing Higher Ed® podcast, Dr. Drumm McNaughton speaks with Dr. Sean Stevens, Chief Research Advisor at FIRE, the Foundation for Individual Rights and Expression. The conversation covers the seventh annual College Free Speech Rankings and why institutions with strong written policies can still see their free speech climate collapse. Stevens, a social psychologist specializing in political psychology and survey methodology, directs the rankings, which this year surveyed students at 261 institutions across all 50 states and the District of Columbia. He explains how the rankings score student self-censorship, comfort expressing ideas, political tolerance, and trust in administration, and how deplatforming attempts and punishments of faculty and students can weigh on a school's score for up to five years. This conversation is especially relevant for presidents, boards, provosts, and enrollment executives evaluating how their institution will respond to the next campus speech controversy or external pressure to censor. Topics Covered Why a green light policy rating does not protect an institution's free speech ranking How the rankings separate trait-based self-censorship from campus climate How speech controversy penalties are graded by severity and decay over four to five years The corporate HR model of managing speech controversies and the mixed messages it sends Syllabi review, course cancellations, and preemptive compliance with the DEI executive order The impact of the Charlie Kirk assassination on student attitudes toward violence and self-censorship FIRE's upcoming surveys of faculty, international students, and college administrators Real-World Examples Discussed Texas A&M's drop to 192nd after the firing of a senior lecturer and demotion of a dean following a student complaint Texas State University's fall of 147 places to a bottom-three finish Harvard's rise from 245th to 71st with no policy reform, driven by gains in student trust in administration UC Davis posting the largest improvement through policy reform and the decay of past penalties Barnard College and Columbia University moving up from the bottom two spots Dartmouth College and the University of South Carolina changing culture quickly under new leadership Three Key Takeaways for Higher Education Leadership State the institution's position on free speech and academic freedom clearly, then follow it when a controversy hits. Written policy without enforcement costs more than it protects. Stand up to pressure to censor, whether it comes from campus groups or state and federal government. Student trust in administrative resolve is a scored component that can move within two survey cycles. Build the capacity for difficult conversations through faculty modeling in the classroom and a substantive First Amendment module at student orientation.

Cass sits down with Brogan Magnarelli, Principal at Riverspan, to talk about her untraditional path into private equity — from point guard at Harvard to account manager at Boingo Wireless, to GE Healthcare sales leadership and finally PE business development. Brogan shares why gathering skills at every step matters more than following a linear path, how her basketball mindset shaped her career, and why she tells anyone who'll listen: if you're the smartest person in the room, find another room. They also get into the "silver tsunami" of aging founder-owned businesses, what it's really like being a working mother in private equity, and why Brogan's 10-year-old self wanted to be a stay-at-home mom.
Are college applications creating more stress, anxiety, and conflict in your home than they need to? The college application process can feel overwhelming for both teens and parents. In this episode, I talk with Dr. Jill Constantino, author of The People's Guide to College Applications: A Week-by-Week Approach to Writing, Connecting, and Getting In. Jill is a writer, college coach, former Harvard writing instructor and dean, and a mom of four. She brings a refreshing message to families: your teen doesn't need to have their entire future figured out—and they don't need to manufacture the “perfect” version of themselves to get into college. Jill shares practical strategies to help teens get unstuck, especially when they freeze or procrastinate over college essays. Instead of starting with the pressure to write an amazing essay, she encourages teens to make lists about what they love, what matters to them, and experiences that have shaped them. From there, they can use short, imperfect writing exercises to uncover the stories and details that reveal who they really are. The goal isn't to sound impressive—it's to sound authentic. We also explore the delicate role parents play during this stressful season. Too much pushing can damage the relationship, but completely stepping away may leave teens without the support they still need. Jill encourages parents to find the middle ground: stay involved, ask thoughtful questions, offer support, and remember that your teen's journey belongs to them. Ultimately, the college application process can become more than a race to get accepted—it can be an opportunity to understand your teen more deeply, protect your relationship, and help them discover who they are becoming. 3 Takeaways Your teen doesn't have to have it all figured out. At 16, 17, or 18, they are still discovering who they are, what interests them, and what they may want from their future. Authenticity matters more than trying to impress. Encourage your teen to notice the quirky, ordinary, specific details of their life. Those details can reveal far more about who they are than an essay designed to sound perfect. Support without taking over. Your teen still needs you during the college application process—but they need you as a supportive presence, not as the person controlling the outcome. Keep the relationship in mind as you help them navigate this transition.

What if the search result you trusted most was quietly chosen to change your mind? Dr. Robert Epstein is a Harvard-trained research psychologist and the former editor-in-chief of Psychology Today. For more than a decade, he has studied how search engines, search suggestions, and video recommendations can quietly shift what people believe and how they vote. He has testified twice before Congress, and his team built America's Digital Shield, which he describes as the first nationwide system to capture the content tech companies send to real voters and children before it vanishes. In this conversation, Dr. Epstein explains why he says short-lived, invisible content is so hard to catch, why even people who notice the bias can still be swayed, and why he believes permanent monitoring is the only way to hold big tech accountable. We also get practical: a digital hygiene test you can take in under a minute, and the simple swaps he uses to protect his own privacy. These are Dr. Epstein's findings and views, and we work through them together. Stay with me.

In this episode, I sit down with Marilyn Raichle, author of Don't Walk Away, founder of The Art of Alzheimer's, executive director of Maude's Awards for Innovation in Alzheimer's Care, and advocate for people living with dementia.With a background in performing arts and a Master's in Public Administration from Harvard, Marilyn reframed her approach to dementia care after becoming a care partner for her mother. She explores how shifting from a "caregiver" mindset to a "care partner" connection fosters dignity, joy, and purpose. In this episode, we discuss:Transitioning from a performing arts and government background into dementia advocacyChoosing active partnership over "walking away" from family members with memory lossDiscovering latent artistic talent and using creative output to bypass fear and stigmaFinding everyday moments of purpose, inclusion, and joy within memory careReframing interactions to prioritize listening, smiling, and presence over memory testsHighlighting enduring personhood and honoring individual identities through cognitive declineLaunching Maude's Awards to recognize and fund innovative Alzheimer's care solutionsAdvocating for systemic cultural shifts in how society views and supports aging populations About Marilyn:Marilyn Raichle, author of Don't Walk Away, grew up in the shadow of Alzheimer's. Nearly everyone in her father's family and many in her mother's developed the disease. Her mother Jean told her, “When we get Alzheimer's, walk away. There is nothing you can do, so live your life and don't sacrifice it for us.” Instead, Raichle became transformed, embracing the value and joy of people who are living with, not suffering from, dementia.She began her career in the performing arts. She founded the Seattle International Children's Festival, introducing children to world culture through the performing arts. In 2007, she received a Master of Public Administration from Harvard University's Kennedy School of Government. Upon returning to Seattle, her career was upended when she became the family caregiver for her parents, both of whom were developing dementia.It was a rocky journey, at first reluctant and ultimately joyous. In 2010, inspired by her mother's newfound artistic ability, she founded The Art of Alzheimer's, celebrating the creativity of people living with dementia and the power of the creative arts to enrich and empower their lives. She is now the Executive Director of Maude's Awards for Innovation in Alzheimer's Care.

Welcome to the Fore Golfers Network/Michigan Golf Live Podcast Ep 543 - Special Guest Paul Albanese On Golf Course Architecture For those golfers fascinated by the process of designing and constructing a course, this conversation will be fascinating as we visit with global golf course designer Paul Albanese. Paul's journey to becoming one of the leading course architects is a fascinating story in itself, as is his latest creation - the new Cedar Course at Island Resort near Escanaba, MI. Picking up the game of golf at age 5, Paul Albanese was a single digit handicapper by the time he was 13 and was fascinated by the great courses he was exposed to in Northern New Jersey, such as Somerset Hills, Baltusrol and Plainfield CC. Paul was recruited by Cornell University to play on the golf team, and he was captain of the team his senior year. Paul received a Bachelor of Science from Cornell University's engineering college, where he specified his studies in environmental and agricultural engineering. His golf team experience at Cornell allowed him to see many classic courses on the East Coast, including the famed Bethpage Black course, where the Ivy Leagues Championships are played every year. After Cornell, Paul went on to Harvard University where he received a Masters in Landscape Architecture. During his tenure at Harvard, he crafted his design curriculum to focus specifically on golf course architecture. P aul also received a prestigious Penny White grant for travel to Scotland to study classic precedents in golf architecture, as well as how the golf landscapes of Scotland function as vital components to its society. Paul is also the Director of Golf Course Architecture at the Edinburgh College of Art in Scotland, which is one of the only Masters level golf course architecture education programs in the world. ---------------- Subscribe to the FGN Podcast Watch FGN videos on YouTube Check out our other sports pod: Church Pew Sports TEXT or CALL (989) 272-2383 to share your thoughts, comments, suggestions, and questions

Tucker Carlson, Nick Fuentes, and JD Vance are at the center of a fight that could decide who controls the Republican Party in 2028. Shabbos Kestenbaum, the Harvard graduate who sued the university and became a fixture at PragerU, the Republican National Convention, and the Knesset, sits down with Jillian Michaels to name the people he says are hijacking the conservative movement from the inside. He lays out what he thinks Tucker Carlson is really building, why the money question won't go away, and the JD Vance decision that could hand the Democrats their best midterm attack line. Then a Nick Fuentes clip about Shabbos gets played on air, and the response goes somewhere nobody expects.IN THIS EPISODE:Tucker Carlson JD Vance 2028: Leaked audio from a closed-door event, a question Vance wouldn't answer, and a theory about what Tucker wants from the next nominee that changes how you'll read every Tucker headline this week.Tucker Carlson money and the Abdul El-Sayed endorsement: Shabbos says the answer to "how did we get here" comes down to two things, and one of them can be settled by opening a set of books that Tucker refuses to open.Nick Fuentes debate challenge: Fuentes calls Shabbos a clout chaser and says he'll never debate him. Shabbos plays a video of Fuentes on a sidewalk with Ben Shapiro's family that flips the whole accusation. Then Jillian explains why she won't have Fuentes on, and the reason isn't what you'd think.America First vs the "woke right": Marjorie Taylor Greene, Thomas Massie, Candace Owens, and Tucker on one list. Shabbos argues they are no longer conservatives, and he has a name for what they are.AIPAC money vs foreign money: The Ana Kasparian clip that ended with her blocking Shabbos on X. Who actually wrote checks to Thomas Massie, and the country pouring money into Harvard and dozens of other campuses that almost nobody talks about. Qatar funding Harvard gets a number that stops the conversation.JD Vance vs Marco Rubio: One of them keeps going viral for what he says. The other keeps going viral for what he does. Shabbos makes the case for which one Republicans should actually be looking at, and the one assignment Vance was given that didn't work.Sharia law in America and the El Sayed Sharia law question: A Muslim debater tries to defend a marriage to a nine-year-old, a British academic calls concern about grooming gangs bigotry, and Jillian says the sentence she's been holding back for years.Radicalized young men and the DSA: Why Shabbos thinks Fuentes could still be pulled back, what the shooters of Charlie Kirk, Trump, and a healthcare CEO have in common, and the case that Bernie Sanders became an existential threat.About Shabbos Kestenbaum: Former Bernie campaigner, Harvard alum who sued the university after October 7th, now a political commentator at PragerU who has testified before Congress and the Knesset.

In this episode of Week In Review Senator Ted Cruz and Ben Ferguson discuss a study examining political donations by Princeton faculty, debate ideological diversity on college campuses, analyze comments from academics and university leaders, and connect those trends to contemporary Democratic politics. They also review Abdul El-Sayed’s Senate campaign, his previous support for the uncommitted movement during the 2024 presidential cycle, Kamala Harris’s appearance on the campaign trail, and the broader political fight over DEI, progressive activism, and messaging ahead of the midterm elections. The episode concludes with a discussion of Texas Democrat James Talarico, his public image as a moderate Christian, and criticism of views expressed by leaders associated with his longtime church community. A new study on political donations at Princeton University found that none of its full-time faculty contributed to Republican candidates during the 2023 and 2024 election cycles. Ted Cruz argues the findings reflect a broader ideological shift within higher education and what he describes as the growing influence of university culture on today’s Democratic Party. The conversation expands beyond academia to the 2026 Michigan Senate race, where Democratic nominee Abdul El-Sayed welcomed former Vice President Kamala Harris to campaign with him. Cruz and Ben Ferguson examine El-Sayed’s past support for Michigan’s “uncommitted” movement, the political implications of Harris’s involvement, and ongoing debates surrounding DEI policies and progressive political messaging. Topics Covered: Princeton faculty political donation data and ideological diversity in higher education Commentary from Jonathan Turley on universities, free speech, and faculty hiring Yale, Harvard, and broader debates over political representation on college campuses Abdul El-Sayed, Kamala Harris, and Michigan’s 2026 Senate race The “uncommitted” movement and disagreements within Democratic coalition politics James Talarico, religion in politics, and controversy surrounding church leadership statements Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.
