A new collaboration pairs Disney characters with every NFL team, and the choice to represent the Steelers has been… controversial. Did Disney capture our spirit or deeply fail us? Host Megan Harris, executive producer Mallory Falk, and contributor Colin Williams debate. We also talk about several investigations Allegheny County District Attorney Stephen Zappala has launched and the frustratingly few details he's shared about them — plus, why he's coming for a “nuisance” bar on the South Side. And we explain the high-profile fight between Gov. Josh Shapiro and U.S. Health Secretary RFK Jr. over measles-related deaths in PA. And in our members-only bonus segment, we share how you can honor the memories of Dolly Parton, Tim Curry, and Yayoi Kusama, including a Dolly drag brunch and a children's book giveaway.

It's Thursday, August 27th, A.D. 2026. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com. I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Jonathan Clark and Adam McManus Haitian gang members killed 50 people in church Gang members attacked a church in Haiti on Sunday, killing nearly 50 people. Displaced people were sheltering in the building of Church of the Ark of the New Covenant. The evangelical church is located near Haiti's capital, Port-au-Prince. Up to 90 percent of the area is controlled by gangs. The gang members killed 47 people and injured another 22 people. Please pray for Christians in Haiti who face much of the widespread gang violence in the country. In John 10:10, Jesus said, “The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy. I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly.” Germany first country to display Muslim prayer times on official signs Evangelical Focus reports a German town became the first in the country to display Muslim prayer times on its official signs. The municipality of Penzberg previously listed Sunday service times for the Catholic and Lutheran parishes in town. Signage now includes prayer times for the local mosque established in 1990. Muslims with a migrant background make up about eight percent of Germany's population, up from five percent in 2016. New U.S. economic sanctions against Iran The Trump administration announced aggressive economic sanctions against Iran on Monday. Operation Economic Outcast aims to cut Iran's financial connections with the rest of the world. The sanctions will also affect any country doing business with the regime. Listen to comments from Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent. BESSENT: “We want to make clear here today that no one is above the reach of U.S. sanctions. That if they facilitate transactions and are part of the ecosystem that turns Iranian oil into money, into repression, they will be targeted.” Facebook/Instagram pay $18 billion over addictive algorithms for kids Meta Platforms agreed to pay up to $18 billion over the next decade in a settlement announced yesterday. Nearly every U.S. state accused the social media company of designing its platforms to be addictive to children. The tech giant is being held accountable for the role its platforms played in undermining children's mental health. These platforms include Facebook and Instagram. California will get the largest sum of $1.5 billion, but several other states will still collect hundreds of millions of dollars each over the decade. The money will be used to pay for legal fees, mental health care for children, after-school programs, and education about the risks of social media use. According to the Associated Press, Meta will eliminate push notifications during weekday school hours and bring in “robust” age-assurance measures and “age-appropriate” content controls to prevent bullying and harmful material about eating disorders and self-harm. The case also argued that Meta violated federal laws by routinely collecting data on children under 13 without their parents' consent. As part of the settlement, Meta agreed to limit teenagers' use of Instagram and Facebook to a couple of hours a day. 1,235 assisted suicide deaths in California last year The state of California reported 1,235 assisted suicide deaths last year. The death toll is up nearly 150 percent over the past five years. The California End of Life Option Act allows adults, expected to live six months or less, to obtain life-ending drugs. The state has authorized the deaths of at least 6,758 people since the law went into effect in 2016. 3 California homeschoolers sue over prohibition from participation Three homeschool families petitioned the U.S. Supreme Court last week after California excluded them from a state program. Some of California's tuition-free charter schools allow homeschool academy programs. However, families cannot use state funds from these charter schools for religious curriculum. In one case, the state rejected a grammar exercise simply because it used the sentence: “God sends the rain to help plants grow.” Acts 14:17 says God “did not leave Himself without witness, in that He did good, gave us rain from Heaven and fruitful seasons, filling our hearts with food and gladness.” Protestant churches are multigenerational Most Protestant churches report being multigenerational. A survey from Lifeway Research found 91 percent of churchgoers agree their church has a good number of active members from all generations. Seventy-eight percent of pastors also agree. Being multigenerational was more frequently reported by pastors of larger churches, younger pastors, and evangelical pastors. Dolly Parton, who died at 80, championed a false gospel And finally, PARTON: “Workin' 9 to 5, what a way to make a livin' Barely gettin' by, it's all takin' and no givin'” Dolly Parton, the country singer, actress, and businesswoman, died peacefully at her home in Nashville, Tennessee on Tuesday. She was 80 years old. Known as the Queen of Country, the singer-songwriter is among one of the best-selling music artists of all time. She wrote and sang this song in 1974 which Whitney Houston would later famously cover. PARTON: “And I will always love you I will always love you.” Parton grew up in a Pentecostal church and described herself as a person of faith. PARTON: “My grandpa was a preacher. So, my grandpa pastored this little church called the House of Prayer. He was a very positive, uplifting person. And I learned to love Jesus, and learned that Jesus loved me when I was a little bitty kid. “And all those things that Mama used to say, you know, that through God all things are possible. I kept all those things kind of tucked away into my subconscious mind and in my heart. And those are the things that have helped me through the years. I never do anything that I don't pray about it, and I always ask God to lead me and to show me and direct me into what I'm doing.” She was married to her husband Carl Thomas Dean for nearly 60 years until his death in 2025. As a philanthropist, Parton supported children's literacy and medical research. Sadly, she was also known as an advocate for unbiblical causes like homosexual behavior and faux homosexual marriage. Appearing with Larry King, she defended homosexuality. KING: “Didn't you recently, though, throw support to the [Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender] community?” PARTON: “Oh, I've always encouraged, not encouraged. They've made me the poster child I think only because I'm so outspoken as far as just being accepting of people in general. “I do not believe that we should criticize and judge other people. I think we should be accepting and loving. We are all God's children. We are who we are, and we should allow, be allowed to be who we are.” Kate Newman, a Christian YouTuber, objected to Parton's bad theology, referencing John 1:12. NEWMAN: “We are not all children of God, contrary to popular belief. We receive the Spirit of adoption from God when we receive Jesus as our Lord and Savior, and we are led by His Holy Spirit. But until then, we're actually all children of the devil.” Larry King asked Dolly Parton this follow-up question. KING: “Did any of the faith-based communities that deeply believe the other way take umbrage with you?” PARTON: “Oh, absolutely. KING: “They did?” PARTON: “Oh, yes. I get it all the time. I keep saying, ‘Well, if you're the fine Christian that you think you are, why are you judging people? That's God's job. We're not God. We're not judges.' You know, we're supposed to love one another. We're supposed to not judge. “If you're gay, you're gay. If you're straight, you're straight. And you should be allowed to be, you know, how how you are and who you are.” In 2024, Ericka Andersen wrote a column for The Federalist entitled “There's nothing loving about Dolly Parton's false gospel.” She argued that, “Parton's version of love, which includes condoning immoral sexual behavior is unaligned with God's vision for humanity. Like so many secularized spiritual leaders, Parton equates love with agreement, but the two are not reciprocal. Love doesn't mean we must accept sinfulness as good to avoid hurting someone's feelings. “To be sure, the culture is on a constant witch hunt for those who would call homosexuality sinful. I understand wanting to avoid the avalanche of criticism, but calling sin out by name isn't judgment. It's adhering to Scripture. “She's right that all should be treated with love and kindness, but when we refuse to label sin a sin, we're doing more harm than good. The gospel of Dolly Parton is popular with the masses, but don't bank your eternity on it.” Leviticus 18:22 says, “Do not have sexual relations with a man as one does with a woman; that is detestable.” Close And that's The Worldview on this Thursday, August 27th, in the year of our Lord 2026.

This is what I get for taking a month off because SO much has happened, and it's been nothing but twists and turns. We're talking Suffolk University letting students co-major in AI, ASU launching a degree for aspiring influencers while the U.S. loses 23,000 jobs, YouTube making it harder to get paid, and the latest mess surrounding Jools Lebron. We also have to talk about what's happening to Haitians as TPS ends, the questions surrounding Nolan Wells' death, Trump administration drama, NABJ handing out its Thumbs Down awards, Invest Fest backlash, Luigi Mangione, Flock cameras and the conversation around progressives and Black voters. Then somehow the billionaires went shopping for the Lakers and EA, FIFA switched things up, and pop culture gave us even MORE to discuss.

This interview is with Elishca Charles of Kann. In this interview, Elishca discusses her journey through hospitality and what it means to her.Elishca talks about her early aspirations of becoming a military doctor, studying public health in college. When Elishca realized that career might not bring her the most joy, she started working in restaurants and never left. Elishca started learning about wine with her coworkers and continued educating herself from there. After the pandemic, that restaurant could not keep her in the same capacity, so she switched to the hotel industry as a food and beverage manager where she got experience in event planning. Throughout this time, Elishca was growing her wine knowledge and wanted to work in a winery. Visiting Oregon awhile back, Elishca decided to make the move in 2023 and secured a job at Domaine Serene.Elishca discusses her experiences within the Willamette Valley and her transition to Kann. Elishca had always loved Oregon Pinot Noir and grew a deeper appreciation for the Willamette Valley working for Domaine Serene. She hoped people left the winery feeling curious to try more wines and exposed to what is in our backyard. From there, Elishca was offered the opportunity to interview with Kann for a general manager position. Elishca had dined at Kann previously, and had dreamed of working there. Kann combined Elishca's Haitian culture and the food she grew up eating with her love of wine. Later in the interview, Elishca talks about what hospitality means to her. Elishca defines hospitality as an unwritten and unspoken language. She believes that hospitality is felt immediately when walking into a new place. She notes an experience she had with her grandmother in Haiti who did not share the same language. Elishca explains that her grandmother communicated through food and hospitality, something she takes with her throughout the industry.This interview was conducted by Rich Schmidt at Kann in Portland on August 18, 2026.
In 1954, a massive government-run resettlement programme began in Canada.This saw the relocation of nearly 30,000 people from isolated ‘outport' fishing communities in Newfoundland and Labrador to designated ‘growth centres', intended to provide better education and facilities.In some cases this involved physically moving houses with ropes and pullies, then floating them to new locations.Catherine Harvey speaks to Don White, who recalls being resettled from Port Nelson where he grew up, and how this affected him and his family.

Peter Schweizer and Eric Eggers track three fronts in China's campaign against American immigration controls, and the officials in Washington who look away. Trump signed two executive orders on August 6, narrowing his birthright citizenship push to birth tourism and surrogacy. Five days later the same coalition from Barbara v. Trump went back to the same judge for a restraining order. Brett Kavanaugh already signaled a pathway for limiting 14th Amendment abuse, so the left should not assume a win at the Supreme Court. The Justice Department charged a network selling green cards through fake weddings. Chinese nationals paid facilitators up to $100,000. Facilitators paid American citizens up to $30,000 to stand at the altar. One prenuptial agreement instructed the bride never to speak to the groom again. Then there is Mexico. Former Mexican tourism official Simón Levy published a report on how Mexicans are manufactured in Mexico. Civil registry employees took $4,000 per migrant to forge birth certificates for Cuban, Haitian and Chinese nationals. Mexico deleted the database field recording when a passport was issued in 2021, so the forgeries are untraceable. A Mexican passport drops your US visa refusal rate by 49.5 points. A Chinese national in Beijing becomes a Mexican citizen, then walks into the United States under a new name. The declassified Swalwell file closes the loop. Eric Swalwell admitted a physical relationship with Chinese intelligence asset Fang Fang. She placed interns in his office and laundered money into his campaign. He joked to friends his girlfriend worked for the Chinese CIA. He stayed on the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence, and Nancy Pelosi kept him there. The FBI, which the committee oversees, kept trying to recruit Fang Fang and never moved on Swalwell.

Today Erica gets to have a little fun with Joshua Lisec and Owen! First, we'll dig into **the Haitians in Ohio**, get a little **news on the bio**... and apparently we're rhyming now, because professionalism has its limits.Then, since Erica suddenly finds herself surrounded by two dads, we're going to take advantage of it and talk about some **manly things**: men, women, relationships, marriage, fatherhood, traditional roles, what men and women misunderstand about each other, and whatever other dangerous territory we wander into. This should go smoothly.
In March 1945, the British Fourteenth Army were advancing on the city of Mandalay in central Burma, now known as Myanmar, which was held by the Japanese Army. The army was made up of soldiers from across the British Empire, with units from the United Kingdom, India, East and West Africa all fighting side by side. The BBC's Douglas Cleverdon accompanied those troops into battle, making what is thought to be one of the first ever radio programmes recorded from the front line of a war. Witness History is produced and presented by Tim O'Callaghan, in collaboration with the BBC Archives, using the recordings made by Cleverdon in 1945. Eye-witness accounts brought to life by archive.

They see each other at least once a week, text pretty much every day, and have been there for each other through hard times. But they refuse to have the “what are we?” conversation. So what gives? Guest host Tobin Low looks into it. (5 minutes)(00:05:14) Act One: Last week, when Temporary Protected Status, also known as TPS, was cut off for Haitian immigrants, some 300,000 people had their lives upended. Marie, a Certified Nursing Assistant in Boston, was one of them.

Enter the bizarre true story of Clairvius Narcisse, the Haitian man who allegedly became a real-life zombie after being poisoned, buried alive, dug back up, drugged, and forced into labor.We explore the terrifying history of Haitian zombies and Vodou, Wade Davis and his controversial search for zombie powder, and the surprisingly real science behind pufferfish toxin, tetrodotoxin, Datura, paralysis, and premature burial. Could ancient knowledge of neurotoxins actually turn someone into a living zombie, or did science take a fascinating Haitian tradition and run a little too far with it? Plus, we examine the skeptics and competing explanations that make the answer considerably messier than "dead people don't walk."Poison fish, stolen souls, questionable pharmacology, family land disputes, zombie plantations, and perhaps the worst return-to-work story in human history... All that and more this week on Hysteria 51.SourcesWade Davis – The Serpent and the Rainbowhttps://www.simonandschuster.com/books/The-Serpent-and-the-Rainbow/Wade-Davis/9780684839295Wade Davis – Passage of Darkness: The Ethnobiology of the Haitian Zombiehttps://books.google.com/books?id=tVxZAAAAMAAJWade Davis – “The Ethnobiology of the Haitian Zombi” – Journal of Ethnopharmacologyhttps://doi.org/10.1016/0378-8741(83)90029-6William Booth – “Voodoo Science” – Sciencehttps://doi.org/10.1126/science.3353722Wade Davis – “Zombification” – Sciencehttps://doi.org/10.1126/science.3381089Roland Littlewood & Chavannes Douyon – “Clinical Findings in Three Cases of Zombification” – The Lancethttps://doi.org/10.1016/S0140-6736(97)04449-8Harvard Magazine – “The Secrets of Haiti's Living Dead”https://www.harvardmagazine.com/sites/default/files/zombie_1986_small.pdfTIME – “Zombies: Do They Exist?”https://time.com/archive/6697896/medicine-zombies-do-they-exist/PBS American Experience – “What Happened When Zora Neale Hurston Studied Voodoo in Haiti?”https://www.pbs.org/wgbh/americanexperience/features/claiming-space-when-happened-when-zora-neale-hurston-studied-voodoo-haiti/Zora Neale Hurston – Tell My Horse: Voodoo and Life in Haiti and Jamaicahttps://www.harpercollins.com/products/tell-my-horse-zora-neale-hurstonLibrary of Congress – “Does the Haitian Criminal Code Outlaw Making Zombies?”https://blogs.loc.gov/law/2014/10/does-the-haitian-criminal-code-outlaw-making-zombies/Chen-Yuan Kao & Takeshi Yasumoto – “Tetrodotoxin Intoxication: A Worldwide Problem” – Toxiconhttps://doi.org/10.1016/0041-0101(86)90067-8Jean Price-Mars – “The Story of Zombi in Haiti”https://sites.duke.edu/haitilab/files/2014/11/Mars-1945-The-story-of-zombie-in-haiti.pdfEmail your Contest Entries to:ForthHandmedia@gmail.comEmail us your favorite WEIRD news stories:weird@hysteria51.comSupport the ShowGet exclusive content & perks as well as an ad and sponsor free experience at https://www.patreon.com/Hysteria51 from just $1ShopBe the Best Dressed at your Cult Meeting!https://www.teepublic.com/stores/hysteria51?ref_id=9022See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

We talk with immigration lawyer Emmanuel Olawale about the consequences facing immigrants after the Trump administration abruptly ended the Temporary Protected Status program. TPS was designed to provide temporary protection for people from countries experiencing disaster, conflict or severe instability, but it did not create a direct path to permanent residency or citizenship.The shortcomings of TPS are confronting some 250,000 to 300,000 immigrants in the U.S. whose lawful status has abruptly ended, including about 20,000 to 30,000 Haitians who have lived, worked, built businesses, and raised children in Springfield, Ohio, for years and are now at risk of being deportedThe discussion highlights the tension between federal immigration policy and the reality of conditions in Haiti, where political instability, gang violence, limited public services, and safety concerns remain severe. As Olawale puts it, TPS is “a temporary solution to a permanent problem,” emphasizing that Congress failed to create a durable legal pathway for long-term TPS holders. The conversation also explores the difference between TPS, asylum, refugee status, and family-based immigration relief.Olawale explains how immigration enforcement is unfolding locally, including ICE reporting requirements, ankle monitoring, expedited immigration court procedures, and pressure on immigration judges. He argues that shifting policies and administrative practices have made immigration law more difficult and unpredictable for attorneys and clients alike.The episode addresses the role of political rhetoric and misinformation in shaping public attitudes toward immigrant communities. The administration's use of dehumanizing language for immigrants attempts to make harsh enforcement policies easier to justify.The situation in Springfield is an example of how a temporary immigration policy like TPS leaves families vulnerable when political winds change.

In 1963, as Kenya celebrated independence from British rule, one of the last Mau Mau fighters came out of hiding and laid down her arms. Muthoni Kirima was the first and only woman to be appointed field marshall in the Kenya Land and Freedom Army - better known as the Mau Mau. She had been living in the Kenyan forest for 11 years, fighting with other armed rebels to reclaim land taken by European settlers. Thousands died or were imprisoned as Britain tried to crush the uprising. But the rebellion was later seen as paving the way to independence. Jane Wilkinson has found out more through Muthoni Kirima's interview with the Mau Mau Chronicles oral history project.Eye-witness accounts brought to life by archive.

In 1952, Princess Elizabeth became queen while staying at the Treetops Hotel in Kenya. But she wouldn't make the discovery until hours later.The 25-year-old Princess Elizabeth and her husband were on five-month royal tour of the Commonwealth, and their first stop was Kenya. The overnight trip to Treetops, a lodge in the Aberdare National Park, was supposed to be a relaxing break. But the princess didn't yet know that, back in Britain, her father King George VI, had died in his sleep.BBC correspondent Frank Gillard was following the trip and sent back a report after the news broke on February 6th. Jane Wilkinson has been through the BBC archives to find out what happened.Eye-witness accounts brought to life by archive. Witness History is for those fascinated by and curious about the past.

The party is sticking with Max Miller despite the very credible domestic abuse allegations. Not only is this a gift to his Democratic opponent, Brian Poindexter, in that red district in Ohio, it's also likely to impact the Senate and governor's races there as well. Meanwhile, Tucker and MTG are talking about creating a third party for 2028. And Trump is losing to Iran so badly he can't even make a coherent argument about the war for his biggest fans. Plus: the ankle monitoring of Haitian immigrants is very Soviet-era Eastern Bloc, defense contractors don't want Ukraine making Patriot missiles because they can do it for less money, Trump is literally giving Mexico territory so he can build his corrupt border wall through Big Bend National Park, and Tim keeps his promise and shares some history on bananas.Bill Kristol joins Tim Miller.show notes: Tim's candidate list, including Ohio's Brian Poindexter Monday's “Morning Shots” Bill and Eric Edelman on the munition depletions Tim and Isaac Saul on the bulldozing of Big Bend Jim on the governor's race in Ohio NYT profile of Brian Poindexter Bill's “Bulwark on Sunday” with Col.

John discusses the controversial confirmation of Todd Blanche as Attorney General, a decision made under the cover of darkness that raises serious questions about the integrity of the Justice Department. He critiques the Republican Senate's choice to support a figure so closely tied to protecting child abusers, including the infamous Jeffrey Epstein. John highlights the absurdity of Senator Bill Cassidy's justifications for his vote, all while the public remains in the dark about critical Epstein files that could reveal the extent of corruption and complicity in the financial sector.John also discusses the alarming findings from Senator Ron Wyden regarding Epstein's banking relationships, exposing how major banks like JP Morgan and Deutsche Bank facilitated suspicious transactions while ignoring their legal obligations. Joining John is Kelly Dietrich, founder and CEO of the National Democratic Training Committee, who shares insights on the midterm elections and the importance of Democratic unity. They discuss key primary contests in states like Wisconsin, Minnesota, and Connecticut, examining the ideological battles within the party and the need for a collective focus on defeating MAGA and promoting progressive values. Kelly stresses the importance of inspiring candidates who resonate with the electorate and the necessity of rejecting divisive narratives within the party.John then welcomes back the insightful Dr. Jason Nichols, a senior lecturer in African American Studies at the University of Maryland. They talk about the recent confirmation of Todd Blanche as Attorney General, discussing the implications of appointing someone so seemingly unfit for the role and the troubling dynamics within the current administration. Dr. Nichols shares his thoughts on the lack of accountability among political leaders and the consequences of prioritizing loyalty over competence.The conversation takes a poignant turn as they address the treatment of Haitian immigrants in the U.S., highlighting the stark contrast between political rhetoric and the reality faced by these communities. John and Dr. Nichols explore the moral responsibilities of leadership and the hypocrisy of those who claim to uphold Christian values while turning a blind eye to the plight of vulnerable populations.Then last but not least, Professor Corey Brettschneider returns to the show. They kick things off by discussing the Supreme Court's recent ruling on birthright citizenship and the implications of President Trump's attempts to redefine it through executive orders. John and Corey explore the historical context of the 14th Amendment and the ongoing challenges posed by the current administration's disregard for constitutional precedents. They also tackle the contentious issue of separation of church and state, particularly in the context of abortion laws and how certain political factions manipulate religious narratives to justify their policies. John emphasizes the importance of understanding the legal foundations behind these arguments, while Corey highlights the inconsistencies within the so-called Christian right's stances.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
In 1997, scientists travelled to Tsavo, Kenya, in search of a cave believed to have been the den of the man-eating lions that terrorised railway workers in 1898.The two lions stalked Indian and African men building the Uganda Railway, dragging victims from their tents at night. It was nine months before the officer in charge of the railway project, British Lieutenant-Colonel John Henry Patterson, could kill them.Nearly a century later, a team including scientists from Chicago's Field Museum, where the now taxidermied lions are kept, returned to Tsavo to search for the cave Patterson believed had been the lions' den.Thomas Gnoske, one of the scientists on the expedition, and Alan Patterson, John Henry Patterson's grandson, speaks to Stefania Gozzer about the hunt for the cave and the enduring legend of the Tsavo lions.Eye-witness accounts brought to life by archive.

Bryan reports on a remarkable shift in the immigration fight, with companies raising wages and recruiting American high schoolers to fill jobs left by deported Haitians, plus new fines and bond requirements aimed at illegal and legal immigrants alike. He also breaks down troubling new data showing Flock license-plate cameras misread plates more than 70 percent of the time in one California city. Plus, Bryan covers Iran's blunt admission that it's building a nuclear bomb, a fragile new deal governing traffic through the Strait of Hormuz, expanding Houthi attacks in the Red Sea, Iranian cyberattacks hitting US water utilities in a dozen states, and encouraging news from the Pacific where ivermectin is knocking out a scabies outbreak.
