Host Pete Deeley welcomes listeners back to The Jiu-Jitsu Mindset, promotes subscription coffee and announces the new app "My Jiu-Jitsu Journey," then interviews Sensei George Rego about his lifelong martial arts path. Rego describes walking into an old, gritty dojo as a child and feeling instantly "at home," drawn to the combination of real physical capability and character, honor, and discipline—echoing Miyamoto Musashi's "twofold way" of sword and pen. He discusses the unique trust of training, the deep teacher-student bond, and the grief of losing his sensei. Rego shares lessons on discipline becoming self-discipline, navigating students who disappear, and his motivation for writing "The Founding of Jujutsu and Judo in America," including Teddy Roosevelt's ju jitsu connections. He concludes that a strong martial artist should be difficult to harm but easy to respect.   00:00 Welcome and Updates 01:05 Meet Sensei George Rego 02:01 Why Martial Arts 03:25 First Dojo Awakening 05:54 Quiet Strength Ideal 09:14 Twofold Way Mindset 13:21 Loss of a Sensei 15:02 Teacher Student Bond 19:08 Trust and Time on Mat 22:18 Students Who Disappear 23:44 Refocus on Students 25:07 Sensei Beyond Fighting 27:13 Systems and Discipline 29:14 Gravitas of a Master 31:05 Why Write the Book 33:53 Research and Roosevelt Dojo 35:05 Preserving Hidden Lineages 36:22 Where to Find the Book 36:57 Audiobook and Bestseller Run 38:33 Hard to Harm Easy Respect

Say the word ambition, especially around women, and it brings up a complicated mix of emotions and beliefs.If you're not succeeding, you're not ambitious enough. If you are succeeding, wanting a lot, and going for it, you're too ambitious, and you get penalized or punished. It happens at work, at home, and in the communities we move through every day.There are so many mixed messages about ambition and success coming at us from every direction. And it's not just imposed from the outside.For many women, those messages get internalized and shape the way we present ourselves and communicate about our work and personal lives. We start to police our own ambition, and we police each other's ambition.My guest today names the invisible norms around women's ambitions, and calls out the ways that organizations perpetuate bias, even as they think they're playing fair. Her work is extensively researched, tracing the roots of the tension around ambition, and also offers language and an opportunity for us to reclaim our ambitions together. Stefanie O'Connell is an award-winning journalist and author of The Ambition Penalty: How Corporate Culture Tells Women to Step Up– and Then Pushes Them Down. Her work dismantles the myths keeping women from equitable pay, leadership and power — one data point at a time.Listen to the full episode to hear:The material costs of what happens when women speak up, lean in, and get ambitiousHow implicit and gendered double standards around power keep women out of leadershipWhy encouraging ambition in girls doesn't translate into celebrating ambition in womenHow people and organizations that believe they are meritocratic end up reinforcing the most biasWhy we can't self-optimize our way out of systemic inequality, and why we need collective actionSix key elements for reframing burnout as an environmental problem, not a personal oneWhy we need to push back against framing women being pushed out of the work force as “empowerment” and challenge sexism in our everyday lives Learn more about Stefanie O'Connell:WebsiteToo Ambitious on SubstackInstagram: @stefanieoconnellThreads: @stefanieoconnellTikTok: @stefaniemoconnellThe Ambition PenaltyLearn more about Rebecca:rebeccaching.comWork With RebeccaThe Unburdened Leader on SubstackSign up for the weekly Unburdened Leader EmailResources:EP 155: Hidden Cost of Caretaking at Work: Nilofer Merchant on Invisible Norms Limiting Your LeadershipStop Punishing Women for Being Ambitious | BloombergMaslach, Christina.

America Is Racing Toward An AI Cliff With No Safety Net, Will AGI Hurt Or Harm? - Alvin Wang Graylin

Our guest this week, Alvin Wang Graylin spent 35 years in senior leadership roles across HTC, IBM, and other major tech companies. He ran HTC's VR division, came out of the famous HIT Lab, now teaches at MIT, holds a fellowship at Stanford, and just published a paper called "Beyond Rivalry" proposing a seven-point plan for deescalating US-China AI tensions and building a global safety net before the economy breaks.His thesis: America is the fastest in the AI race and the least prepared for what it's creating—a cliff where human labor theory of value collapses, capital concentration accelerates, and 40% of the population living month to month faces chaos.The conversation becomes a wide-ranging debate between Alvin, Charlie, and Rony about whether AGI will be benevolent by default (Alvin's position: research shows smarter AI seeks global coherence and becomes less controllable by individual humans, which may actually make it safer) or whether benevolence must be designed in from scratch.AI XR News You Should Know: Elon Musk merges SpaceX, xAI, and X into a single entity—Alvin dismantles the space data center concept with physics (vacuum cooling is a myth, micro-meteorite collisions would destroy hardware daily, and energy is only 10% of data center costs).Amazon invests $50 billion in OpenAI that round-trips back to AWS. Alphabet breaks revenue records at $400 billion but spooks investors by disclosing $90 billion in AI spending. ElevenLabs raises $500 million at $11 billion valuation. Rony's SynthBee hits unicorn status with $100 million raised at a multi-billion dollar valuation.Alvin warns the AI bubble dwarfs the dot-com era (298 companies raised $24 billion total during dot-com; OpenAI alone is raising that in a single private round) and predicts OpenAI may implode before going public.Key Moments Timestamps:[00:04:47] SpaceX/xAI/X merger: Rony calls it Elon's "return to Tony Stark form"[00:06:41] Alvin dismantles space data centers with physics: vacuum cooling myth, micro-meteorites, $7K/kg launch costs[00:10:04] Amazon's $50B investment in OpenAI as a round-trip to AWS; the scam economy[00:11:26] Alvin predicts OpenAI may implode before going public[00:14:23] Alvin on 35 years in AI: the technology is transformational but everyone's making a commodity product[00:17:04] The AI bubble dwarfs dot-com: $24B total vs. single private rounds today[00:19:04] Rony's contrarian: the $110 trillion global economy is what's being bet against[00:21:06] Labor theory of value collapses: what happens when humans exit the production cycle[00:23:00] America is fastest in the AI race and least prepared; 40% live month to month[00:24:00] Alvin's Stanford paper "Beyond Rivalry": a CERN for AI and global data pool[00:28:00] Davos reflections: the rest of the world is more rational than America[00:34:00] Chinese vs. American culture: reverence for teachers, respect for elders[00:42:00] Alvin's "Abundant" framework: valuing human dignity over production after AGI[00:44:22] The great debate: will AGI find benevolence naturally (Alvin) or must it be designed in (Rony)?[00:47:00] Rony on risk: AGI systems are unverifiable, untestable, and we cannot take the chanceListen to the full episode and subscribe to the AI XR Podcast for weekly conversations at the intersection of AI, XR, and the future of humanity.This episode is brought to you by Zappar, creators of Mattercraft—the leading visual development environment for building immersive 3D web experiences for mobile headsets and desktop.

Did you know that people who are incarcerated typically receive poor quality food that contributes to poor mental and physical health? Join Food Sleuth Radio host and Registered Dietitian, Melinda Hemmelgarn for her conversation with Jessi Silverman, MPH, RD, Deputy Director in the Programs Department at the Center for Science in the Public Interest. CSPI and the Carceral Nutrition Project produced a report and webinar which explore the consequences of private food service companies taking over food services at prisons and jails. This report specifically focuses on Aramark, which has the largest share (35 percent) of the US correctional food services market. Aramark has also been a party to litigation regarding carceral food conditions in more than 500 cases since 2000. These cases reveal widespread allegations of nutritionally inadequate, unsafe, and contaminated food.  Most legal claims have been brought under the Eighth Amendment, arguing that inadequate or unsafe food constitutes cruel and unusual punishment.  Related Websites:  https://www.cspi.org/PrivateFoodPublicHarm-fullreport

Send us Fan MailMost nonprofits are good at issuing apologies, but terrible at actually changing. There's a difference between saying "I'm sorry" and doing the work of repair, and that gap is exactly where trust goes to die. In this episode, we get into what accountability actually means, why so few organizations do it well, and what it looks like when it's done right.On this week's episode of The Small Nonprofit Podcast, Maria sits down with Chris Talbot (they/them), Communications Lead for Community-Centric Fundraising, and a queer, transmasc, non-binary, mixed race, autistic advocate who has spent years working to make spaces genuinely safe for marginalized people. Nonprofit leaders listening to this episode will walk away with a concrete framework for taking accountability, a clearer picture of why changed behavior, and not apologies, is the actual measure of accountability, and a harder look at the double standard of who gets held to account in our sector.Shahem Mclaurin's page, which has links to their socials, podcast, and work: https://www.5hahem.com/Christabel Mintah-Galloway's page, which has links to her relational toolkit, relational skills workbook, workshop, and socials: https://www.christabelmintahgalloway.com/Book: Turn this world inside out: The emergence of nurturance culture: https://bookshop.org/p/books/turn-this-world-inside-out-the-emergence-of-nurturance-culture-nora-samaran/012f25ca4db67954Chris's website: https://www.mxchristalbot.com/Twitter: https://x.com/mxchristalbotInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/mxchristalbot/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/mxchristalbot/Them's Wild podcast: https://dashboard.rss.com/podcasts/themswild/Check out the What The Fundraising podcast here.Support the show

Nobody expected the second half of the cleric episode to begin with a discussion about wolves conducting hate crimes against coyotes, crows acting as aerial bounty hunters, and the lasting trauma of Game of Thrones season eight. Somehow this naturally transitioned into Pathfinder clerics, giant dragon towers, vampire bat transformations, and a godless revolutionary whose greatest enemy remains organized religion. In hindsight, this was probably the only possible outcome. Show Notes In the second half of our Pathfinder 2e Cleric build series, we advanced our morally questionable holy figures from level 11 all the way to 20. Before we even reached the introduction, however, we somehow found ourselves discussing wolf vendettas, crow conspiracies, Game of Thrones, British pronunciation crimes, and Pulp Fiction-inspired monologues. Naturally, this was exactly the kind of preparation required for high-level clerics. Randall returned with his godless anti-religious war priest, continuing his crusade to dismantle divine authority while simultaneously benefiting from divine magic. The contradictions only made the character stronger. Ash continued building a dragon-obsessed kobold servant of Dahak, leaning heavily into domains, summoning magic, and draconic heritage feats. Tyler doubled down on his undead survival machine, creating a cleric who would rather become increasingly horrifying than ever experience death again. As the builds progressed, the characters became increasingly absurd. Randall evolved into a social revolutionary capable of literally preaching atheism to enemies. Ash transformed into a majestic kobold empowered by dragons and armed with enough fire to solve nearly any problem. Tyler embraced his inner vampire, eventually turning into a bat, draining enemies, and becoming nearly impossible to kill. High-level spells stole much of the spotlight. Summoning dragons, collapsing enemies with Implosion, unleashing Massacre, and transforming into avatars of divine power all showcased just how spectacular Pathfinder's spellcasters become in the late game. Meanwhile, Randall's philosophy remained unchanged: peace is important, and anyone who disagrees can discuss it with the business end of a glaive. By the time we reached level 20, our collection of short kings had somehow become terrifying demigods. None of them were remotely good people, but they were certainly memorable clerics. Key Takeaways Levels 11 through 20 dramatically increase a cleric's power through doctrines, master spellcasting, and powerful class feats. High-rank divine spells provide some of the most cinematic effects in Pathfinder 2e. Harm-focused builds can become incredibly durable through self-healing and defensive feats. Domain spells continue to scale well into the highest levels of play. Heritage feats can dramatically shape a character's identity and capabilities. Avatar provides one of the most flavorful capstone spells available to divine casters. Additional 10th-rank spell slots are difficult to pass up at level 20. Warpriests gain survivability but still lag behind dedicated martial classes in weapon proficiency. Pathfinder 2e offers many ways to support unusual character concepts, including technically illegal godless clerics.

Why Wearing Sunscreen All Day May Be Doing More Harm Than Good for Women Over 40 In this thought-provoking episode, Angela Foster sits down with renowned beauty expert and author Liz Earle MBE to challenge conventional wisdom about sunscreen and sun exposure. Liz discusses why current public health messaging around universal, all-day SPF use might be too extreme, potentially robbing us of vital Vitamin D and other essential benefits of natural daylight. KEY TAKEAWAYS Many people assume they still get Vitamin D while wearing sunscreen. However, Liz points out that this only happens because most people apply it too thinly or miss spots.  Applying high SPF when it is completely unnecessary, like on a dark winter morning during an underground commute, is a sign that public health messaging has become too broad.  Our skin isn't just a physical barrier; it actively receives light and communicates with the body's immune system.  Exposing your skin to gentle, early-morning sunlight (when the UV index is low) acclimatizes it.  Medical professionals and researchers are beginning to speak out against extreme sun avoidance.  BEST MOMENTS "When people say, 'Yes, you get Vitamin D from the sun when you're using sunscreen,' yeah, because you're not using your sunscreen properly. You're actually allowing some of that UVB to come through the skin." "The worst thing that we can do is stay indoors all year and then rush out for our two-week summer beach holiday and fry ourselves on the beach... That's because our skin has not got used to the sunlight." "The skin is actually an organ of light reception. This is what we're just beginning to understand, that the skin has light receptors on it for reasons—they're signaling, it's not just blocking and keeping our insides intact." "I don't know if you take collagen supplements, I do, but actually by going out in early morning light, I'm telling my body to make more collagen. So it's preparing the skin." "He says that he thinks that we will look back at this time and our lack of sun exposure as being as damaging to our health as smoking."

Somewhere in Golarion, a tiny halfling cleric stands on a battlefield declaring that war is bad and violence solves nothing. Seconds later, he charges into combat with a hammer-and-sickle-decorated glaive, threatening to enforce peace by force. Meanwhile, a dragon-worshiping kobold is handing out experimental body modifications like coupons, and an undead enthusiast is one bad day away from becoming a lich because dying once was already one time too many. Somehow, this became a cleric episode. Show Notes This week we tackled Pathfinder 2e Clerics from levels 1 through 10 and quickly discovered that none of us had any intention of making wholesome heal-bots. Instead, we ended up with a collection of morally questionable short kings dedicated to violence, dragons, and undeath. Before diving into the builds, we spent some time discussing Pathfinder's deities, faiths, and philosophies. Ash walked through the Laws of Mortality philosophy, which somehow manages to oppose religion while occasionally becoming just as fanatical as the people it criticizes. Randall immediately embraced the concept and created a pacifist war priest whose solution to conflict is apparently more conflict. Ash also shared details from a new Starfinder campaign involving amnesiac characters trapped aboard a failing space station, creepy recordings, reality-bending horrors, and accusations of stealing ideas from Randall. Ash clarified that any theft was actually from Knights of the Old Republic II, which is apparently perfectly acceptable. Once the episode officially started, we built three very different clerics. Tyler embraced undeath through Urgathoa, focusing on survivability and refusing to ever experience death again. Ash created a dragon-obsessed kobold devoted to Dahak with enough fire and draconic abilities to make every problem look flammable. Randall built a tiny anti-war field medic whose philosophy boils down to peace through overwhelming force. Along the way we discussed doctrines, domains, divine fonts, Battle Harbingers, favorite weapons, and why evil gods consistently seem to have the coolest toys. By the end of the first ten levels, we had accidentally assembled Team Fun Size: three short clerics with deeply questionable life choices and entirely too much confidence. Key Takeaways Pathfinder clerics are extremely front-loaded and gain many important features at level 1. Faiths and philosophies offer interesting roleplaying options but usually provide fewer mechanical benefits than traditional deities. Warpriests gain armor and weapon advantages while Cloistered Clerics focus more heavily on spellcasting. Divine Fonts are far more flexible after the remaster because they no longer depend on Charisma. Harm-focused clerics can become surprisingly durable through self-healing and temporary hit points. Domains provide powerful focus spells and can dramatically shape a cleric's playstyle. Battle Harbinger and class archetypes show how Pathfinder 2e can radically alter classes without creating entirely new ones. Short ancestries apparently became an accidental theme, resulting in Team Fun Size. Randall's anti-war cleric demonstrated that ideals and practical solutions do not always align. Ash's Starfinder campaign premise proves that creepy space stations never go out of style. Welcome to the RPGBOT Podcast.

Kinsella On Liberty
KOL491 | Trying to Persuade Paul Cwik of the Case Against IP

Kinsella on Liberty Podcast: Episode 491. https://youtu.be/lfjpoKCWBDA I've known Paul Cwik, Professor of Economics and Finance at the University of Mount Olive and fellow of the Mises Institute since I started attending the Austrian Scholars Conference in 1995. He is an Austrian and libertarian of sorts but had some qualms with my anti-IP writing so presented a paper "Is There Room for Intellectual Property Rights in Austrian Economics?" at the Austrian Scholars Conference in 2008, which I attended and commented on. After 18 years we finally decided to get around to talking about this. I had planned on an hour but we ended up talking for 3. It turns out we were old friends but not that close; we didn't know much about each other. So the first 30-50 minutes or so is more preliminary discussion. To his credit, he read a good deal of the huge deluge of material I sent to read up on and asked many very good questions. He did not engage in intentional equivocation that is characteristic of many on the pro-IP side, and he was reasonable in conceding many of my points and was willing to ponder my push back. I was hoping to get him to see the light, since I have in person seen many people change their minds on IP after a long discussion but have never had it happen while recording. We did not resolve the issue, partly because we just didn't have enough time to keep going, but I think we made some progress. Maybe we will have a Part 2 later. Who knows. For now, some relevant links pertaining to some of the topics discussed. I will organize this better later. (Not to be confused with Bryan Cwik, who also has opinions on IP: “Good Ideas is Pretty Scarce”; Bryan Cwik, "Property Rights in Non‐rival Goods" (2, 3, 4); "Labor as the Basis for Intellectual Property Rights" (2; 3); Gamrot, Labor as the Basis for Intellectual Property Rights: Against Cwik.)

Locke correctly argued that the first person to “mix his labor with” an unowned resource owns it, since he thereby establishes an objective link to the resource which gives him a better claim to it than latecomers.[55] However, Locke based his argument on the confused and unnecessary idea that a person “owns” his labor and “therefore” owns resources that he mixes it with. But labor is not owned—it is an action, something a person performs with his body, which he does own—and this assumption is not needed for the Lockean labor-mixture argument to work.[56] This mistaken notion leads some people to favor IP because they figure that if you own a scarce resource because you mix your labor with it, you also own useful ideas that are produced with your labor. The related Smith-Ricardo-Marx labor theory of value, which underlies Marxism and socialism, is also sometimes used to support IP, as when people argue that if you work or labor, you “deserve” some kind of reward or profit. All this focus on labor must be rejected as overly metaphorical and confused, and, frankly, Marxian.[57]" On Libertarian Legal Theory, Self-Ownership and Drug Laws: p. 632 Libertarianism After Fifty Years: What Have We Learned?, p. 687 Creationism: Libertarian and Lockean Creationism: Creation As a Source of Wealth, not Property Right Libertarian Creationism KOL012 | “The Intellectual Property Quagmire, or, The Perils of Libertarian Creationism,” Austrian Scholars Conference 2008 KOL037 | Locke's Big Mistake: How the Labor Theory of Property Ruined Political Theory Part III.C.2 C.

AI ethicist Jess Morley: these chatbots are giving medical advice — so regulate them as medical devices. Part of The Agentic Patient, a Faces of Digital Health series on how patients actually use AI — which tools, which prompts, which safeguards. In this episode, host Tjaša Zajc sits down with Dr Jess Morley, Associate Research Scientist at the Yale Digital Ethics Center and a former AI subject-matter expert at the UK Department of Health and Social Care, for a clear-eyed account of where health AI is going wrong — and how to use it well anyway. Morley argues we systematically overestimate what these tools can do and underestimate the harm. She makes the case for "skeptical optimism," explains why bioethics principles built for one-to-one care break down against many-to-many AI harms, and reframes ambient scribes as inference engines rather than transcription services — with real consequences for coding, billing and patient records.

What if the diagnosis you fear most is also the one most likely to be wrong and the treatment that follows causes more damage than the disease ever would?In this episode, Dr. Stephen Petteruti highlights how the prostate is often overdiagnosed and overtreated. The issue is not the PSA test itself. It's how the result is interpreted and what happens next.Dr. Stephen breaks down the cycle: arbitrary PSA cutoffs, fear-based referrals, and biopsies that detect dormant cells and trigger aggressive treatments. These pathways can lead to real consequences without clear evidence of improving survival. Instead, he emphasizes monitoring trends, using imaging, and focusing on overall health rather than reacting to a single number.If longevity and clarity matter to you, take a step back before your next test or procedure.

Send us Fan MailIn this Journal Club episode, Ben and Daphna review a nationwide Swedish cohort study examining the association between phototherapy duration and neonatal outcomes in very preterm infants (22 to 31 weeks). The study's primary outcome, late neonatal mortality on days 8 to 27, was not significantly associated with phototherapy duration. However, longer phototherapy exposure was associated with increased odds of severe neonatal morbidity, including IVH and BPD, in infants born at 26 to 31 weeks. The findings prompt an important conversation about the near-universal use of phototherapy in preterm neonates and whether current practice warrants reassessment.----Phototherapy, Morbidity, and Mortality in Very Preterm Newborns.

www.determinetruth.com   Can the Bible be used to justify abuse? In this episode of the Determined Truth Podcast, we conclude our series on unhealthy churches, spiritual abuse, and religious trauma with author, theologian, and abuse expert Steve Tracy. Steve shares decades of experience helping churches understand abuse, respond wisely to victims, and avoid the misuse of Scripture that often protects abusers instead of the vulnerable.   Topics include: How common abuse is inside churches Why some churches still fail to respond appropriately The misuse of complementarian theology and authority structures "Touch Not God's Anointed" and other frequently abused passages Proverbs and corporal punishment The proper interpretation of 1 Timothy 5 and accusations against leaders Why biblical justice prioritizes the vulnerable How churches can protect abuse survivors The role of humility in biblical interpretation Stories of healing and restoration through Mending the Soul We also discuss Steve's ministry work throughout East Africa, where churches are being equipped to care for trauma survivors and bring healing in some of the world's most difficult circumstances. Whether you're a pastor, ministry leader, survivor of abuse, or simply someone seeking a healthier understanding of biblical authority, this conversation offers practical wisdom, theological clarity, and genuine hope.

Are ZYNs gas-station Ozempic or a dopamine loan shark? Nick Pell digs into the nicotine pouch boom this Skeptical Sunday — and the verdict is messy.Welcome to Skeptical Sunday, a special edition of The Jordan Harbinger Show where Jordan and a guest break down a topic that you may have never thought about, open things up, and debunk common misconceptions. This time around, we're joined by writer and researcher Nick Pell!Full show notes and resources can be found here: jordanharbinger.com/1340On This Week's Skeptical Sunday:ZYNs are a tobacco-free nicotine pouch born from Swedish "snus." Swedish Match engineers extracted nicotine salts and loaded them into food-grade fillers, creating a shelf-stable white pouch that doesn't stain teeth or require spitting. Philip Morris bought the company for $16 billion in 2022.The harm-reduction case is strong, but "less harmful" isn't "harmless." ZYNs skip the carbon monoxide, tar, and lung damage of cigarettes, and carry roughly 90 — 99% lower carcinogens. But they still raise heart rate and blood pressure, can cause gum recession, disrupt sleep, and remain wildly addictive.The user base skews young, male, and white. Men are 88% of the market, and the 19-30 bracket is fastest-growing, with use doubling in 2024-2025. Adoption is concentrated in white, high-income, urban circles like tech, law, and finance where smoking is socially radioactive.Nicotine has real cognitive perks — with a catch. A meta-analysis of 41 studies found genuine gains in alertness, reaction time, and focus, plus appetite suppression ("gas station Ozempic"). The catch: for addicts, these benefits mostly just return you to baseline rather than lifting you above it.If you already smoke, switching is a genuine win you can act on today. For a smoker, trading cigarettes for pouches is described as "trading a motorcycle for a minivan" — vastly less likely to kill you. Harm reduction beats abstinence-only, since switchers are twice as likely to stay off cigarettes as those using gum or lozenges.Connect with Jordan on Twitter, Instagram, and YouTube.

Dr. Annie Selak (she/her/hers) is an expert in feminist ecclesiology. She studies wounds in the church, or moments where the church fails to live into its mission and causes harm. Racism, sexism, and the clergy sex abuse crisis are examples of the church failing to credibly be church. Guided by a feminist methodology, Selak integrates the lived experience of women with a robust vision for the church. Selak serves as a Visiting Scholar in the Center on Faith and Justice while working as a campus minister at a local independent school. She earned her Ph.D. in systematic theology at Boston College and M.Div at the Jesuit School of Theology at Berkeley. Selak has over 15 years of experience in Catholic ministry, and her writing has appeared in Modern Theology, Journal of Catholic Social Thought, Washington Post, National Catholic Reporter, Commonweal, and America. Her forthcoming book, The Wounded Church: Tending to the Harm within Catholicism (Fordham UP, 2026) puts forth a vision of the church in the shadow of wounds, guided by a feminist methodology. Selak argues that the Catholic Church must confront its own injuries in order to credibly be Church. Using a feminist framework, she develops a new ecclesiology around three wounds, racism, sexism, and clericalism, that actively harm the Body of Christ and distort its witness. Attentive to history, pastoral practice, and lived experience, Selak shows how each wound is both inflicted by the Church and borne within the Church. She offers the resurrected body of Jesus, scarred yet no longer bleeding, as a guiding metaphor for ecclesial renewal, a body that does not deny its wounds but is transformed through them. Drawing on Karl Rahner, she grounds hope in the reign of God while insisting on concrete institutional and spiritual conversion. Written for students and scholars, ministers and lay leaders, The Wounded Church uncovers overlooked histories tied to racism, sexism, and the clergy sexual abuse crisis, and proposes clear theological principles for reform. The result is a constructive, pastorally engaged vision that tells the truth about harm and imagines credible paths toward change, accountability, and justice.

With the rise in use of artificial intelligence, the data center industry is booming across the country, and right here in Ohio. So many data center plans are underway in our state that Ohio has given up about $2 billion in tax breaks to these projects over the last two years alone. This is a far cry from the original estimate that the break would be closer to $266 million, leading Gov. Mike DeWine to put a pause on the incentive program just last week. Thursday on the "Sound of Ideas," we'll dive into how companies are rushing into Ohio to try to set up shop, while concerned citizens are pushing for moratoriums and even bans on these facilities. They share concerns legitimized by environmental and energy experts about the impact operating these facilities will be on our air and water quality and whether our existing power grid can handle what data centers require. There's also the concern of whether this industry which supports the advancement of AI will result in fewer jobs in the region. Meanwhile, places like New Albany, Ohio seem to have figured out how to coexist with this technology in a way that benefits the area. And Greater Cleveland Partnership has released a set of guidelines they believe communities should consider, while trying to determine whether any kind of data center is right for them before putting blanket bans in place. What is the right approach, to balance economic growth and protecting our planet? We'll try to answer that question with a panel of experts, concerned citizens and industry insiders. Guests: -Miranda Leppla, Director, Environmental Law Clinic, Case Western Reserve University School of Law -Jonathan Steirer, Interim Director, Great Lakes Energy Institute -Baiju Shah, President and CEO, Greater Cleveland Partnership -Michael Miller, Senior Director of Corporate Communications, Park Place Technologies -Will Hollingsworth, Concerned Citizen, Ravenna Resident

Amanda Scarborough was in a fetal position, weeping on the floor when her husband walked into their bedroom, immediately realizing that something was terribly wrong. Their baby lay crying on the bed, while Amanda had distanced herself so that she wouldn't harm the baby. It was at that moment that she did something she hadn't done before: she cried out for help. This is what severe postpartum depression looks like. She needed intervention, guidance, and treatment. Amanda tells her story of wrestling through the difficulties of PPD through a Biblical lens. As a business owner, wife, and mother, she has walked through some of the deepest valleys and emerged with wisdom and experience that has helped many other moms dealing with similar serious postpartum depression themselves. TAKEAWAYS The enemy's tactic with postpartum depression is to keep you isolated and convince you to harm your baby and/or take your own life When you're IN the midst of depression, it's often hard to find the words to describe what you're feeling Shame is often a big factor in PPD, which stops women from seeking help and perinatal depression manifests when the baby is still in utero If you feel depressed, get help by calling 988 to reach the Suicide and Crisis Lifeline
