"I think the US in general doesn't pay much attention to European space." That's how Dr. Michael Gleason of the Aerospace Corporation opens - and it's exactly the blind spot this conversation sets out to expose.Recorded live on day two of the 41st Space Symposium in Colorado Springs, Torsten Kriening sits down with the analyst whose latest paper, "Geopolitical Awakening: The European Union and Space," made a lot of Europeans uncomfortable - not because he got it wrong, but because an American got it right. It's Gleason's ninth paper on EU space activities across more than twenty years of watching the continent's slow, incremental, and now suddenly accelerating progress.The conversation digs into what mapping Europe's space ecosystem from the outside reveals that insiders often miss. Gleason walks through the political-will framework he first built in 2004 - policy, institutions, senior-leader attention, and money - and explains why, with up to €60 billion on the table in the next EU budget, he believes this time Europe means it. Then comes his one truly original insight: as EU funding flows into ESA, the share could climb past 50%, and that "different color of money" might quietly loosen the geographic-return rule that has held European space together for forty years.From strategic autonomy (and what Washington actually hears when Europeans say it - "not much") to dual-use tensions around Galileo, Copernicus and IRIS², from missile-warning data sharing to the role of NATO, this is a clear-eyed, transatlantic exchange. And it ends on a provocation worth sitting with: the most uncomfortable thing isn't Gleason's conclusions - it's that a European institution didn't write the paper. Strategic autonomy, as Torsten argues, starts with self-understanding.Torsten's Op'ed: #SpaceWatchGL Opinion: Who Understands European Space Better - Washington or Brussels?Space Café Radio brings you talks, interviews, and reports from the team of SpaceWatchers while out on the road.

Spider-Man. Nicolas Cage. Film noir. Brendan Gleeson. Spider-Noir. A black-and-white detective story wrapped inside a Marvel universe.Yeah, we're doing that this week.On this episode of Pop Culture Weekly with Kyle McMahon, I sit down with Nicolas Cage and Brendan Gleeson to talk all about Prime Video's Spider-Noir, the stylish new live-action series based on one of the coolest Spider-Man variants ever created.Nic shares how Spider Noir became one of the rare projects that turned out exactly the way he imagined it, the artistic influences behind his performance and which one of his iconic characters he'd throw into Spider Noir's world just to watch the chaos unfold.Brendan Gleeson joins me to discuss stepping into the role of Silvermane, why he decided to reinvent the character for this version of the story, working alongside Nicolas Cage and what makes Spider-Noir feel so different from traditional superhero fare.Plus, I make my case for why you should absolutely watch the series in authentic black and white. I'm not saying I'm right… but I'm right.If you're a Spider-Man fan, a Nicolas Cage fan, a Brendan Gleeson fan, a noir fan or just someone who misses when comic book adaptations took weird creative swings, this episode is for you.Let's go.If you dig the show, subscribe, rate, and share - and tell your friend who's always stealing your streaming passwords.

In this episode, Ryan Franklin sits down with Stan Gleason, Assistant General Superintendent of the UPCI, bishop of The Life Church of Kansas City, and author of The Priesthood of the Believers, to talk about what it actually looks like to break through that ceiling. Bishop Gleason makes a compelling case that the key to church growth isn't a better program or a bigger budget. It's releasing the saints to do the work of the ministry.

Readings: Acts 2:1-21 | 1 Corinthians 12:3b-13 | John 7:37-39 | Psalm 104:25-35, 37. Preached for Pentecost Sunday (2026-05-24).

In this powerful message, Pastor Sean Gleason explores what it truly means to connect with God through meditation, drawing from Joshua 1. He unpacks the critical difference between biblical meditation and demonic meditation, revealing that biblical meditation is not about emptying yourself, it is about feasting on the word of God until everything else begins to exit. Pastor Sean challenges believers to choose what they meditate on, because their meditation will determine their direction. Pastor Sean warns that when believers chew on the lies of the enemy rather than the truth of God, they give the enemy agreement and power over their lives. He calls the church to take every thought captive, not by suppressing it, but by bringing it before Jesus and making it listen to what God says. This message challenges believers to understand that the prescription for seasons of transition is meditation on the word of God, because what got Israel into the promised land was not their strength, it was their willingness to think about the right things. The vision of Mercy Culture is to take people from corporate encounters with God to daily personal encounters with God. At Mercy Culture, one of our unique characteristics is that we are a presence driven church. We are not built around any person or ministry. We are built around the presence of God.

Readings: Acts 1:6-14 | 1 Peter 4:12-14; 5:6-11 | John 17:1-11 | Psalm 68:1-10, 33-36. Preached for the Seventh Sunday of Easter - Youth Sunday (2026-05-17).

SYNOPSIS: Ali is in the hot seat today! The tables have turned as longtime friend, student and Television Producer, Lauren Gleason, interviews Ali about her body-based method, Personal Geometry® - a practice she developed to give the body a language that our cognitive minds can immediately access and understand.  Together, they explore how Personal Geometry® and body mapping techniques are used in therapeutic and clinical healing, particularly in addressing challenges related to the body, sexuality, and addiction. Ali shares how she refined her method while working in renowned rehab centres in Los Angeles, offering real-life examples of its impact and honoring the influence and her experience of Family Constellation Work.They discuss the power of mapping relational dynamics - how visualizing the roles we hold in family systems can illuminate unconscious patterns, especially in the context of addiction and trauma. Other topics explored include the common phenomenon of emotional incest, the challenges and call to work with perpetrators, sexual biases as a facilitator, and our universal need to belong.At its core, Personal Geometry® is a somatic practice that taps into the body's innate, felt-sense understanding of spatial relationships. By bypassing psychological defense mechanisms, it directly reveals how we unconsciously position ourselves in relation to others, environments, and internal conflicts. This non-verbal, embodied approach provides a clear and immediate visual representation of a client's inner world, making it an invaluable tool for therapists, facilitators, and anyone seeking profound transformation.  PERSONAL GEOMETRY TRAININGSJoin the Next Personal Geometry® Foundations Class  (online over Zoom)Now enrolling - click here for more details.

- Ag Markets with Greg Johnson- Asking County Boards to Site Data Centers is an Unfair Thing- Pope Leo's Food Waste Petition and Prayer- Ag Weather with Drew LernerThe May 6, 2026, broadcast of the Closing Market Report, hosted by Todd Gleason from the Land-Grant university in Urbana-Champaign, covers commodity market trends, the agricultural impact of data centers, food waste, and regional weather forecasts. Analyst Greg Johnson reports that declining crude oil prices and anticipated average U.S. crop yields are pressuring corn and soybean markets. Agricultural policy specialist Jonathan Coppess criticizes the shifting of responsibility onto local county boards for siting large data centers, citing the facilities' immense and unsustainable consumption of farmland, water, and electricity. Additionally, Gleason highlights the ADM Institute for Post-Harvest Loss's efforts to reduce global grain waste, referencing a related public message by Pope Leo XIV. Concluding the report, meteorologist Drew Lerner predicts frost risks for winter wheat in Kansas and Colorado, ongoing drought conditions in Nebraska, and incoming rain that will benefit southern portions of Brazil's Safrinha corn crop. ★ Support this podcast ★

In this powerful message, Pastor Sean Gleason explores what it truly means to connect with God through creation, drawing from Hosea 2 and Romans 1. He unpacks how everything in creation points back to the Creator, revealing that slowing down to behold the beauty of God in what He has made is not just a hobby for outdoorsmen, it is a powerful and intentional way to encounter the living God. Pastor Sean challenges believers to stop admiring creation while missing the Creator behind it. Pastor Sean warns that when believers lose their awe and wonder of God, they will inevitably place it somewhere else, whether in witchcraft, idolatry, celebrity worship, or religious performance. He calls the church to be delivered from boredom and apathy, because the spirit of religion closes your spiritual eyes and leads you to find awe and wonder in all the wrong places. This message challenges believers, and especially men, to spiritually lead by pursuing deep intimacy with God, because a passive man creates an open door for darkness to enter his home, his family, and his city. Creation is the art gallery of the Lord, and it is time to slow down and behold the beauty of the One who made it all. The vision of Mercy Culture is to take people from corporate encounters with God to daily personal encounters with God. At Mercy Culture, one of our unique characteristics is that we are a presence driven church. We are not built around any person or ministry. We are built around the presence of God.

View the Show Notes Page for This Episode Become a Member to Receive Exclusive Content Sign Up to Receive Peter's Weekly Newsletter In this episode, Peter takes a deep dive into prostate cancer screening, explaining why advanced and metastatic diagnoses continue to rise despite the availability of screening tools, and what can be done to reverse this trend. He breaks down what PSA actually measures and why it is far more informative when tracked over time rather than interpreted as a single value, and he explores how tools like MRI, PSA density, PSA velocity, and improved biopsy techniques can both reduce unnecessary procedures and improve the detection of aggressive cancers. Peter also discusses the role of active surveillance in avoiding overtreatment for low-risk cases, examines the flawed evidence that has historically been used to argue against PSA screening, and highlights how medications like finasteride can suppress PSA levels and potentially mask warning signs if not properly accounted for. Ultimately, he makes a compelling case for the importance of regular PSA testing as a key strategy in the effort to eliminate prostate cancer mortality. We discuss: The failure of current prostate cancer screening guidelines, and the rise in advanced disease despite available tools [2:30]; PSA screening fundamentals: benefits, harms, and the guideline shift driven by overdiagnosis concerns [5:30]; The impact of reduced PSA screening: rising rates of late-stage prostate cancer and worsening population-level outcomes [12:00]; How modern screening practices use PSA trends, MRI, and new imaging advances to improve accuracy and reduce unnecessary procedures [15:00]; Advances in prostate biopsy: transperineal approach improves safety and cancer detection [23:00]; Reducing overtreatment: Gleason scoring and active surveillance in modern prostate cancer care [25:30]; Reevaluating PSA screening guidelines: how flaws in the PLCO trial undermine the evidence used to argue against PSA screening [29:45]; Prostate cancer screening today: improved tools, flawed guidelines, and preventable mortality [33:45]; How finasteride and similar drugs suppress PSA levels and can lead to missed or delayed prostate cancer diagnoses if not properly accounted for [38:00]; The optimistic future of prostate cancer: modern screening advances and the potential to reduce mortality [43:15]; and More.

Election integrity warrior, Army veteran, and Republican U.S. Senate candidate for Florida Chris Gleason (@immutablechrist) is sounding the alarm on a full-scale Chinese Communist Party (CCP) influence operation infiltrating Sunshine State politics at every level. In explosive recent posts, Gleason exposes how CCP-linked shell corporations — including money funneled through iGas USA and tied to Chinese state-owned entities like Zhejiang Juhua — have laundered millions into Florida campaigns and committees via sophisticated "smurfing" networks using ActBlue, WinRed, Democracy Engine, and more.His forensic analysis shows both leading 2026 Florida Senate contenders compromised: Attorney General Ashley Moody receiving criminally laundered CCP and corporate cash, and Alex Vindman taking CCP and Soros-linked funds. Gleason doesn't mince words — he calls it straight-up treason, declaring neither is fit for public office. From voting machines with CCP-compromised components to full infiltration of the Republican Party of Florida (RPOF), Gleason lays out the evidence that has already prompted FEC complaints, sworn statements to FDLE investigators, and national attention.As the data expert who built the “Smurf Hunter” tools exposing massive money laundering operations — triggering responses from Sen.

Why tell the truth when it doesn't always pay? It's important to let boys encounter this question through example, literature, and enough freedom to wrestle with his own conscience. In this rebroadcast of a 2017 talk, Head of Lower School Colin Gleason admits that you can't "teach" integrity with drills and facts. But you can create an environment that encourages it to develop. We have to push past consequentialism and avoid the adult instinct to root out the facts at any cost. Because the truth is a good and natural thing; the boy needs only to embrace it.

Photo: Marcia Lowry outside the federal courthouse in Anchorage on September 8, 2025. She was lead attorney in the class action lawsuit against the Alaska Office of Children’s Services. (Matt Faubion / Alaska Public Media) Judge Sharon Gleason dismissed a federal class-action lawsuit filed against the Alaska Office of Children's Services (OCS) Tuesday. The lawsuit was brought by a national nonprofit working for foster care reforms. Attorneys for the organization alleged Alaska foster children are at risk of harm because of systemic problems that violated federal laws, including the Americans with Disabilities Act and federal child welfare protections. They pointed to high caseloads for caseworkers and an inadequate hiring and training process. About two thirds of kids in out-of-home care in the state are Alaska Native, but Gleason wrote that the attorneys did not prove that any of the foster youth represented were actually harmed. Gleason also questioned the reliability of the evidence presented. Marcia Lowry is attorney and executive director of A Better Childhood, which brought the suit. She calls the dismissal “quite disappointing”. “We did do a trial that involved a lot of evidence that, I think, was largely undisputed about how high the caseloads are in Alaska, about the lack of placement resources for children, about the failure to basically make attempts to remedy that situation.” She says a lot of children in Alaska are not getting benefits they are entitled to under federal law. Lowry says A Better Childhood is not sure yet of its next steps but is considering an appeal. “We have seen dysfunctional child welfare systems really, really change and provide good services to kids, but we have seen that only as a result of litigation.” OCS declined an interview for this story. In a written statement they said they are pleased with the court's decision and the verdict is an opportunity for the office to continue advancing its work. This story was provided by Alaska Public Media's Rachel Cassandra The U.S. Supreme Court building in Washington, D.C. (Photo: Gabriel Pietrorazio) The U.S. Supreme Court last week spent two hours hearing a landmark case that could upend birthright citizenship. A 19th century ruling on the citizenry of tribal members was at the heart of the Trump administration's defense. KJZZ's Gabriel Pietrorazio has this report. This was the exchange during oral arguments when U.S. Supreme Court Justice Neil Gorsuch pressed Solicitor General John Sauer, who presented the government's case. Sauer: “Yes, yes, so a tribal Indian for example gives up allegiance to…” Justice Gorsuch: “Are tribal members born today birthright citizens?” Sauer: “Uh, I think so – on our test, yes – if they're lawfully domiciled here. I have to think that through, but that's my reaction.” Gorsuch: “I'll take the yes, that's alright.” In an 1884 majority decision, the justices ruled John Elk, a Winnebago man living in Omaha, was not a U.S. citizen in spite of the 14th Amendment – codifying birthright citizenship. “My mother was probably not a United States citizen when she was born in 1923 in Oklahoma.” Bob Miller, who is Eastern Shawnee and with Arizona State University's Indian Legal Clinic, has been teaching this very precedent of Elk v. Wilkins for three decades now. “I disagree completely with the argument that that's analogous to undocumented immigrants and them having children here.” Get National Native News delivered to your inbox daily.

Readings: Jeremiah 31:1-6 | Acts 10:34-43 | Matthew 28:1-10 | Psalm 118:1-2, 14-24. Preached for Easter Sunday (2026-04-05).

Today on Discover Lafayette, we welcome Dale Clark, Ursula Quoyeser, and Kelly Viator to talk about the upcoming fifth annual Fin Feather Fur Food Festival, known as F5, benefiting Team Gleason Foundation. The event will be held April 30, 2026, at Blackham Coliseum, and if you've ever attended, you already know it's one of those rare gatherings where incredible food, community spirit, and a powerful mission all come together. This conversation brings us to the heart of why F5 matters, and why this cause continues to resonate so deeply across Acadiana. Team Gleason is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization founded by former New Orleans Saints safety Steve Gleason following his ALS diagnosis in 2011. Known for his iconic blocked punt in the Superdome that symbolized hope for a recovering New Orleans, Gleason has carried that same spirit into his life's work. His message, “No White Flags,” has become a rallying cry for those facing ALS. Today, Team Gleason is recognized as one of the largest nonprofit providers of equipment and technology to the ALS community. Their mission is focused on helping individuals not just survive, but truly live, through access to communication devices, mobility equipment, care services, and even “adventures” that allow families to create lasting memories together. In the past two years alone, requests for care services, equipment, technology, and experiences have increased by 70%, reflecting both the growing need and the trust families place in this organization. As Kelly Viator of the Team Gleason Founation explains, their work begins with listening: “visit persons in their homes, to understand the environment that they're living in and what technology would best suit them and at what time.” https://youtu.be/ID6gZ85BEeE?si=TuyJG7igU2CupkHp That level of care extends beyond equipment. It includes advocacy, helping families navigate systems that are often confusing and overwhelming, and creating connection through support networks. Kelly shared that their local virtual gatherings offer a space where “sometimes we cry, but mostly we laugh,” a reminder that even in the face of ALS, community remains essential. For Ursula Quoyeser, that community has made a profound difference. She describes how her symptoms began subtly during COVID, with what she thought was a minor issue. “I started getting dropfoot, and little things just kept happening.” After a long wait to see specialists and ultimately receiving her diagnosis, her mobility declined to the point where she now relies on a wheelchair and adaptive equipment. Through Team Gleason, Ursula continues to receive critical support, including a specially equipped van that came at exactly the right moment. “I was pulling into the driveway of the dealership to buy a van when I got the call.” That kind of intervention restores independence. As Ursula shares, “I can still go places and do things.” Ursula Quoyeser, known to many as Coach Q, attended Lafayette High and played volleyball and softball at USL, now known as UL of Lafayette. She was the first female athlete inducted into the UL Lafayette Athletic Hall of Fame in 1992. Dale Clark's journey with ALS led him to channel that same spirit of resilience into action. Diagnosed in October 2020, Dale very quickly began asking what he could do to make a difference. Over breakfast with friends right after his diagnosis, the idea for F5 was born. “They said, what can we do for ALS? Then we saw an article by Team Gleason and I said, we need to talk to them.” From that moment, the Fin Feather Fur Food Festival took shape, rooted in Louisiana culture and driven by purpose. Teams compete by cooking fish, wild game, or fowl; “You either cook a fish, an animal or a feather. Or perhaps a dessert!” F5 is a cooking competition where teams compete for winner status in the Fin, Feather, and Fur or Dessert division. Awards will be presented to each team winning their respective category. Dale Clark, pictured far left, with his buddies from the Florence Club at the 1st annual F5 on April 28, 2022. What started as a grassroots effort has grown into a signature Acadiana event. F5 now draws roughly 1,500 attendees each year and has raised more than $750,000 over the past four years. This year's goal is clear: reach $1 million total raised in its five years of existence. It takes a village to make that happen. Dale is quick to credit the cook teams and volunteers who fuel the event's success: “I can't thank the cook teams enough because without the cook teams, we don't have an event.” And for those attending, the experience is unforgettable with unlimited food tastings, drinks, live energy, silent auctions, and a packed room filled with purpose. But what stays with you isn't just the food. Ursula says her favorite part is seeing all the people. “Friends and family show up in big groups.”And Dale shares what matters most to him: “Meeting all the people with ALS, and their spouse coming up and giving me a hug. I really appreciate that.” Those moments are what this event is really about. Because at the end of the day, Team Gleason's mission is simple but powerful: with the support of caring individuals, people living with ALS can experience greater independence, a higher quality of life, and the dignity they deserve. F5 is how Acadiana shows up to make that happen. General admission tickets may be purchased for only $45.00 and many sponsorship opportunities are available. Visit https://teamgleason.org/f5/ or Team Gleason's website: https://teamgleason.org/. You can also just purchase tickets on April 30 at the door. Once you understand what's behind this event, it becomes very clear. This is something you definitely want to be part of.

Walker goes live on Nostr with Alex Gleason (Soapbox) and Derek Ross to talk about the new AI + Nostr builder renaissance: why Nostr beats federated “decentralization”, how Alex accidentally ended up helping build Truth Social off the Mastodon stack, and why AI-first, permissionless app building is exploding. They break down Soapbox's suite—Shakespeare (in-browser AI app builder), Agora (activist coordination + anti-blackout tooling), Treasures.to (real-world geocaching), plus the agent economy experiments: OpenClaw, Quilly, Moltbook, and Clawstr—where bots post, zap, and evolve personalities. They also dig into BitChat, Cashu, and more. The big takeaway: the barrier to building is basically gone—stop watching and start shipping.

The daughter of a hospital administrator, Amy Gleason never considered a career in the public sector – she went straight into healthcare. As an emergency room nurse, she started to see the dangers that unfold when healthcare providers don't have access to the information they need to treat patients. Those experiences drove her towards a tech career in the emerging electronic health records space before a very personal experience altered her professional path yet again.Amy's active and healthy 10-year old daughter began suffering unusual healthcare events, from rashes and headaches to broken bones. Eventually, she couldn't walk. It took more than a year from the start of these symptoms for doctors to diagnose her with a rare autoimmune disease. Even then, it was an accidental diagnosis from a dermatologist conducting a skin biopsy.Amy attributes the delayed diagnosis to siloed data, not unsimilar to the challenges she experienced as a nurse and was working to solve in the EHR space. It motivated her to co-found a company focused on helping patients with chronic diseases access their data to share it with the providers and family members helping to navigate complex care journeys.In 2015, Amy's work earned her an award from the White House for Champions of Change in Precision Medicine – her first foray into the public sector. By 2018, she entered civic service full time with a role at the United States Digital Service, which she describes as “DOGE 1.0.”In this episode of Healthcare is Hard, Amy talked to Keith Figlioli about the work she's doing now as Strategic Advisor to CMS and Administrator of the U.S. DOGE Service, where her main mission is modernizing technology across government agencies for the millions of people who rely on federal services every day. This ranges from modernizing FAFSA and the student loan process, to improving the Visa system ahead of the World Cup, and work on various critical healthcare systems. Some of the topics Amy and Keith discussed in this episode, include:Bold plans for a Digital Health Ecosystem. Launched in July 2025, CMS' Health Tech Ecosystem is a public-private partnership designed as a voluntary, fast-moving alternative to slow rulemaking. Rather than years of regulation, the program uses pledges, working groups, and short development cycles to put interoperability building blocks and real patient-facing use cases in place. The goal is to get usable capabilities into the market in months – not years – let the community iterate, and have baseline use cases live by March 31, 2026 with more advanced capabilities rolling out by July.Carrots and sticks before regulation. Recognizing the limitations of regulation, Amy talked about a new philosophy for incentivizing the market to change behaviors on its own first. “Carrots” include the rural health transformation fund and the recently introduced ACCESS model, a 10-year pilot that, for the first time, lets tech-enabled services bill Medicare directly. “Sticks” include stricter enforcement of information-blocking rules.Replacing the 1970s-era Medicare claims system. Amy discussed plans to replace Medicare's decades-old COBOL-based adjudication platform. While it's a stable platform, it can't support real-time processing, AI, or rapid change. To replace it, CMS is looking to commercial, off-the-shelf solutions that operate at scale so claims processing can be modernized, made real-time, and integrated with new interoperability rails. It's a concrete example of bringing modern engineering and product thinking to government technology.To hear Amy and Keith discuss these topics and more, listen to this episode of Healthcare is Hard: A Podcast for Insiders.

The first images of a "protector" that flash through our minds might be the warrior, the superhero, the movie star physically holding back evil from invading the world…. Our lower school head, Colin Gleason, casts a different vision: the benevolent king, the merciful brother, the knight at vigil in the sanctuary. Yes, our role as fathers is to protect—most often through a steady presence that communicates security to our children. When we do our job well, they can live with confidence. In his talk from the Fatherhood Conference last fall, Colin identified five battlegrounds for establishing this kind of security, most of which are in our own homes.
