Merriam-Webster's Word of the Day for July 31, 2025 is: petulant PET-chuh-lunt adjective Petulant describes a person who is angry and annoyed, or an attitude or behavior showing the emotions of such a person. // I didn't appreciate being accused of acting like a petulant toddler. // Her tone became petulant when she realized that the items on sale were no longer available. See the entry > Examples: “When Moira reached her mother on the phone, it was hard to take in any information other than that she was being sent away. ‘Babysitting and secretarial work?' Moira said without saying hello. ‘Organizing lessons?' ‘Hello, Moira,' Nina said. ‘Let's drop this petulant teenager routine.' ‘I am a petulant teenager.'” — Keziah Weir, The Mythmakers: A Novel, 2023 Did you know? Petulant may have changed its meaning over the years, but it has retained its status as “word most people would not use to describe themselves in a job interview.” Hailing from Middle French and Latin, petulant began its English tenure in the late 16th century with the meaning recorded in our unabridged dictionary as “wanton or immodest in speech or behavior”—in other words, “lewd” or “obscene.” The word eventually softened, at least somewhat, from describing those who are forward in—shall we say—prurient ways, to those who are forward by being merely rude and angrily bold. Today the word is most commonly used to describe someone acting snippy and snippety, snappish and snappy, displaying an often childish ill or short temper of the kind that tends to arise from annoyance at not getting one's way.

President Cyril Ramaphosa is “a prisoner of his own party secrets”. So says former double agent and Mandela spy, Brad Steyn, who was Neil de Beer's brother-in-arms. Steyn - who is now an independent security expert - gives the backstory to Ramaphosa's rise and reveals the role played by Police Minister Senzo Mchunu - now on special leave. Hailing the bravery of SAPS whistleblower General Nhlanhla Mkhwanazi, Steyn describes how other police generals were burnt when they spoke truth to power. He expresses concern that incoming Acting Police Minister Firoz Cachalia is “just another cadre deployment”. Commenting on deepening factions in the African National Congress (ANC) as top members jockey to be the party's next leader, Steyn labels Deputy President Paul Mashatile an “absolutle nightmare” - and says: “what we are witnessing isn't democracy, it's survival and contest for the corrupt elites… and every move is shadowed by dirty money, spy games, and fears of prosecution”. As for the raging diplomatic war between the US and SA, he says: “South Africa is punching way above their diplomatic weight and way below our ethical belt… we've weaponised transformation into a tender cartel and now the world's pulling back the curtain - and you can't blame them.” He fingers BRICS as a “big, big obstacle” and says it is “not a moral alliance”, but “an opportunistic economic bloc…built on double standards and dirty deals, back ends…bribes.”

We really geeked out over music and had such a great time talking with Mark about his move back to Port Angeles, Washington, dealing with the breakup of his band, and his new album “Company Man.” Mark Fredson's musical journey spans more than two decades, marked by a dogged commitment to the pursuit of making music for music's sake. Hailing from Port Angeles, Washington, Fredson was just a sophomore in high school - when he signed his first record deal. As a frontman, songwriter, pianist, and producer, his body of work is vast, from the outlaw country of Margo Price's "Hurtin' (On the Bottle)," which he co-wrote with Price, to the theatrical pop anthems that have defined his solo career. But it's his latest album, Company Man, arriving in the Spring of 2025, that marks a a new chapter in Fredson's artistic evolution. The album explores the tension between chaotic beauty of youth and the mundane realities of growing older, all while refusing to let go of a life in service to music, even if it's sometimes more labor than love.Fredson's high-octane days as the frontman of the Nashville-by-way-of-Port Angeles band The Lonely H had their fair share of musical highlights, but it wasn't until he went solo that Fredson's true musical identity was solidified. After releasing his debut solo album, Going to the Movies, in 2020, Fredson followed up with two debauchery-fueled full-length efforts,2021's Nothing But Night and 2023's Outskirts. Now, with Company Man, he dives deeper into the internal l conflicts brought on by the pesky hands of time and the realities of makingends meet. Across its 10 lean tracks, Fredson reckons with the challenges of making art while spending over a decade working in the restaurant industry. Was it worth it?

Courtney Cox, known in metal circles as “CC Shred,” has been a standout guitarist since her early teens. Hailing from Philadelphia, she began playing guitar at 13 and by 15 was touring nationally thanks to her training with the Paul Green School of Rock. Her dedication and ferocious style quickly set her apart in the male-dominated world of metal guitar. Courtney moved to Los Angeles in 2008 to further her career, where she became a prominent member of the all-female Iron Maiden tribute band, The Iron Maidens, performing as “Adriana Smith.” Her time with the group solidified her international presence and developed her reputation for technical precision and powerful live performances.In 2023, Courtney took a bold step by joining Swiss metal band Burning Witches, initially filling in for guitarist Larissa Ernst during maternity leave. Not long after, she was made a permanent member, fully embracing the transition from tribute work to creating and performing original music. Her arrival injected new energy into the band's sound, and she quickly proved her worth by contributing to fresh tracks like “The Spell Of The Skull” and “Mirror, Mirror.” Fans and critics alike have praised her seamless integration and her ferocious riffs that blend seamlessly with the Witches' heavy, melodic power metal style.Courtney's move from The Iron Maidens to Burning Witches marked a turning point. In a 2024 interview, she explained how difficult it was to leave the tribute band world, but emphasized the joy and creative satisfaction that comes from playing music she helped write. The constant travel between both bands had taken its toll, and she decided to focus her energy on one project. The choice paid off, and her contributions to Burning Witches have been instrumental in their continued rise, particularly as the band headlines European metal festivals and develops material for their next studio album.Outside of performing, Courtney is also deeply connected with her fans through social media and her personal projects. She launched a Patreon where fans can get exclusive content, lessons, and behind-the-scenes access to her creative process. She's also a proud ambassador for Caparison Guitars, being the first female artist to have her own signature model, the Horus-M3 CC.

Part two of RA.996 comes from a modern-day house luminary. As part of our countdown to RA.1000, a milestone in the 24-year history of RA's weekly mix series, we're switching up the usual format. The next few editions will pair two acts who compliment each other's strengths, offering a fresh take on a particular community, scene or style. This week, we're zeroing in on two names who fly the flag high for old-school, US house—a foundational pillar of the electronic underground. The first half comes from Ron Trent, which you can read more about here. On the B-side is Ash Lauryn. Hailing from Detroit, she's a modern-day house savant. Her comprehensive understanding of the genre's history—knowledge gained from the Detroit greats who that inspired her—and her own inimitable blend of old-world soul meets new-school grooves make her a force to be reckoned with. A former RA contributor, Lauryn keeps it real, whether in the booth or beyond. A role model to a new generation of DJs, she can just as easily be found teaching workshops at Underground Music Academy in Detroit or sharing tricks of the trade in the green room at some of the best clubs in the world. An unwavering champion of Black dance music, the Atlanta resident makes it a point to play as much Black American music as possible, as she told us in her 2019 podcast. Not much has changed since then. Her contribution to RA.996 spans favourites like Larry Heard, Mood II Swing, Byron The Aquarius, Moodymann, Ron Trent and plenty of Detroit heavy-hitters. Listened to together, both mixes are a powerful snapshot of house's timeless elegance and, most importantly, understated yet innately euphoric joy.

The first half of RA.996 is Ron Trent's take on luxurious house. As part of our countdown to RA.1000, a milestone in the 24-year history of RA's weekly mix series, we're switching up the usual format. The next few editions will pair two acts who complement each other's strengths, offering a fresh take on a particular community, scene or style. This week, we're zeroing in on Ron Trent and Ash Lauryn, two names who fly the flag high for old-school US house—a foundational pillar of the electronic underground. Trent takes the A-side. Hailing from Chicago, the birthplace of house, the pioneer is a master of finding the sweet spot where machine music meets organic instrumentation. Listen to any DJ set or record in his extensive back catalogue and you'll find a wealth of exquisitely expressive melodies and deep, spiritual frequencies, making him the ideal narrator for any survey on house. (If you've only got a moment, sink into "Morning Factory," nine minutes of perfection.) Trent's return to the RA Podcast, 19 years after his debut in 2006, represents his many decades of expertise in fusing funk with gorgeous musicianship under the umbrella of heart-stirring house. Some may call it a masterclass but to us, it's just Trent doing what he does best. Listened to as a whole, RA.996 is a powerful snapshot of house's elegance, class and most importantly, understated yet innately euphoric joy. Find the interview and tracklist at ra.co/podcast/999

'Dream Talks is an anthem for anyone who's ever been messed over' so says KONNO of his upcoming release, adding, 'writing this song nearly killed me. I was dealing with a situation where I felt betrayed by a person I thought had my best interests at heart. There were lots of anxious nights but looking back at it now, I'm proud of how I handled everything. It was cathartic to get that all out in the new record.' Alongside this release, KONNO is gearing up for an exciting summer ahead. With an upcoming gig in St. Mary's cathedral Tuam, and a five-track debut EP in the works, 2025 is looking bright for KONNO.

How does the vague language of the First Amendment impact us today? As you listen to Lee's example of the company commander with the cross on his desk, how would you respond if you were in Lee's position? How do you think you balance your private and public personas? What do you learn from Jesus' example of rejecting political power? “In essentials unity, in non-essentials liberty, in all things charity.” How does this quote from seventeenth-century German Lutheran theologian Rupertus Meldenius tie into today's conversation? In what ways can your life be an example of the gospel and the work of Christ? What Scriptures shape your leadership philosophy, even in ways that might be subtle to the non-believer? Where's the line between encouraging religion and morality and compelling it? What can we learn from the Founding Fathers as they faced tension and disagreement regarding the government's approach to religion? Lee explains that "liberty is freedom to follow laws and freedom of conscience." What are your thoughts on this definition? Why is it important to understand not only what the Constitution says but also why it says what it does?

The Temple of Surf Podcast – This Week's Guest: Alessandro Piu – Italian Surfing Champion, Waterman, and Global Ambassador of Mediterranean Surf Culture This week on The Temple of Surf Podcast, we are honored to welcome one of Italy's finest surfers and a true ambassador of European surfing Alessandro Piu. Hailing from the sunny shores of Sardinia, Alessandro has carved out a remarkable path in professional surfing, breaking boundaries and making history as one of Italy's most decorated and recognizable surf athletes. With a fearless approach to the ocean, a deep respect for the environment, and a hunger for powerful waves around the globe, Alessandro embodies the spirit of the modern waterman. From Mediterranean breaks to the hollow reefs of Indonesia, from the rugged coastlines of Ireland to the barrels of Tahiti, he has proven that you don't need to be born in Hawaii or Australia to be world-class. Alessandro's story is one of determination, adaptability, and passion. Growing up in a country where surfing was still a niche sport, he discovered the ocean at a young age and quickly fell in love with the rhythm of the waves. Sardinia's varied coastline, ranging from wind-swept beach breaks to slabby reefs, became his training ground. With limited resources and exposure compared to surfers in California or Australia, Alessandro pushed himself hard, rising through the ranks with raw talent and tireless dedication. He quickly caught the attention of the European surf scene, earning titles at both national and international levels. Over the years, he became Italian Champion, represented Italy in ISA World Surfing Games and WSL Qualifying Series events, and participated in prestigious contests. His powerful, expressive style, especially in heavier surf, set him apart. Whether drawing sharp lines on a six-foot point break or charging thick barrels, Alessandro has consistently proven himself as one of the most complete surfers to ever emerge from Italy. But Alessandro is more than just a competitor, he's also a true explorer and surf culture storyteller. He has traveled extensively, surfed some of the most remote and challenging waves in the world, and helped shed light on Italy's unique surf geography. In recent years, he's taken on a role as an environmental advocate, using his platform to speak out about ocean conservation, pollution, and the preservation of coastal ecosystems. His involvement in sustainable surfboard initiatives and support of grassroots surf communities reflect his deep commitment to the planet and to future generations of surfers. On social media and in person, Alessandro has become a role model for aspiring surfers across Europe. His down-to-earth character, humility, and passion for wave riding resonate with fans from every background. He regularly collaborates with major surf brands, independent filmmakers, and ocean-focused nonprofits to amplify the message of connection between sport and sustainability. In this exclusive conversation with The Temple of Surf, Alessandro opens up about his early days surfing in Sardinia, the challenges he faced building a pro career from Italy, and his favorite destinations across the world. We also dive into his mindset during competitions, how he stays motivated during off-seasons, and what it feels like to represent his country on an international stage. Plus, he shares insights on the evolution of the Mediterranean surf scene, the importance of culture in surfing, and the legacy he hopes to leave. Whether you're a surfer from the coast of Biarritz, in Hawaii, or someone paddling out for the first time in Italy, Alessandro Piu's story is an inspiration. His journey proves that passion, grit, and respect for the ocean can take you to incredible places, even when you come from a country without a long-standing surf tradition. Tune in to this week's episode of The Temple of Surf Podcast for a raw, insightful, and powerful chat with one of Europe's top surfing voices. Alessandro Piu reminds us all that the soul of surfing knows no borders and that wherever there are waves and a deep love for the ocean, greatness can be found.
