Gabriel Weil from Touro University argues that liability law may be our best tool for governing AI development, offering a framework that can adapt to new technologies without requiring new legislation. The conversation explores how negligence, products liability, and "abnormally dangerous activities" doctrines could incentivize AI developers to properly account for risks to third parties, with liability naturally scaling based on the dangers companies create. They examine concrete scenarios including the Character AI case, voice cloning risks, and coding agents, discussing how responsibility should be shared between model creators, application developers, and end users. Weil's most provocative proposal involves using punitive damages to hold companies accountable not just for actual harms, but for the magnitude of risks they irresponsibly create, potentially making even small incidents existentially costly for major AI companies.

Interview by Kris PetersGerman dark rock outfit Lord Of The Lost struck gold with their 2022 album Blood & Glitter carrying the band into the 2023 ESC finals and into the hearts and ears of a more mainstream market. It was a fitting reward for the band who had toiled hard without overwhelming success over six previous albums, emphatically announcing Lord Of The Lost to a wider market that grew to connect with the band on a deeper level.Rather than rehash what was obviously a winning formula, Lord Of The Lost have returned to their darker, atmospheric roots for their upcoming album OPVS NOIR Vol. 1, which is out on August 8. They have also played it far from safe by declaring it the first of a trilogy concept series of albums that promise to explore opposing sides of their musical psyche over the journey.HEAVY sat down with vocalist Chris Harms to find out more, at one point asking Harms if it was tempting to stick to what had already worked for the band."Yeah, of course," he answered honestly. "All the experts in the industry said this was the most successful album and was the number one record, and it broke all our records, so just keep going that way. Just stay in the lane. Some even saidthat after so many years of searching for something new, and always trying something new, finally, it was the most successful in the mainstream. And we were like, okay, do you think that we always changed because we were searching for the one recipe? And now we found it, and we stay like that? They were like, yeah, of course, otherwise, why would you change all the time? And we said because that's what artists do. Some people really think that we always tried something new because we were looking for some kind of recipe. Look at David Bowie. Do you think he did all genres that exist in the world because he was looking for success? Or do you think he did that because he just wanted to explore the space? He followed his heart, and this is what we do."In the full interview, Chris provided an overview of Lord of the Lost's upcoming album, Opus Noir, Vol. 1, set for release on August 8. He described the album as an emotional journey that explores themes of darkness and beauty, incorporating orchestral elements and film score influences to create a rich sound. The singles My Sanctuary and I Will Die In It were highlighted as representative of the album's diverse emotional landscape, with My Sanctuary serving as an entry point and I Will Die In It embodying the core emotional essence. Chris also discussed the song Ghosts, featuring cellist Tina Guo, emphasizing her contribution to the emotional depth of the music and its alignment with the overall essence of OPVS Noir.The discussion further delved into the trilogy concept behind the album, with Chris explaining that the band wrote 34 songs during the creative process, ultimately deciding to release them as three interconnected albums. He noted that all albums were recorded simultaneously to capture a specific moment in their lives. We also spoke about their upcoming tour of Australia and more.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/heavy-music-interviews--2687660/support.

Father Rob speaks with Father Paul Sullins, a sociologist and Senior Research Associate at the Ruth Institute, about a groundbreaking re-analysis of the controversial 2012 Regnerus study on same-sex parenting. Father Sullins explains how researchers recently applied a “multiverse of analysis” approach—running over 2 million statistical permutations—to the original dataset. Their goal was to debunk the study, but instead, they found overwhelming confirmation: in every model, children raised by same-sex parents consistently fared worse than those raised by a married mother and father. Father Sullins discusses how this re-analysis not only validates the original study's findings but also highlights the deep ideological bias in academia, where research that supports traditional family structures is often suppressed or ignored. He recounts how journals have retracted studies under activist pressure and how scholars who challenge the dominant narrative face professional retaliation. The conversation also touches on broader implications: the Catholic Church's understanding of the human person, the erosion of academic freedom, and the potential legal and cultural consequences, especially regarding adoption laws and same-sex marriage rulings. Despite the challenges, Father Sullins sees signs of hope, including honest scholars beginning to push back against ideological censorship. Together, the two priests explore how faith and honest science converge, reinforcing timeless truths about family, parenting, and the well-being of children.

Email us: Will@faithfulpoliticspodcast.comIn 1954, white Southern churches declared that school integration “defied God's design.” Seven decades later, many of those congregations champion “color-blindness” instead. What changed—and what hasn't? Historian Rusty Hawkins (Indiana Wesleyan University), co-editor of The Bible Told Them So: How Southern Evangelicals Fought to Preserve White Supremacy, joins Faithful Politics to trace the theological through-line from Jim Crow sermons to modern debates over CRT and DEI. Hawkins explains how pastors and laypeople alike used Scripture to sanctify segregation, then re-branded the same resistance as a fight for “quality education” and “parental choice.” He also argues that today's church can still become a force for racial reconciliation—if it learns from the prophetic witness of the Black church and rejects power for service. Whether you're a pastor, activist, or history buff, this conversation equips you with the receipts—and the hope—to confront racism's religious roots.Guest BioRusty Hawkins is Associate Professor of History at Indiana Wesleyan University, specializing in American religion and race. He co-edited the award-winning The Bible Told Them So and is currently writing a religious biography of Alabama Governor George Wallace. Hawkins's scholarship appears in Christianity Today, the Journal of Southern Religion, and other outlets, making him a leading voice on how evangelical theology has shaped—and been shaped by—America's color line.

Between annual targets and cost-focused KPIs, procurement leaders find themselves in an impossible bind when it comes to decarbonization: they know sustainability matters, yet the very incentive structures designed to reward their performance actively undermine their decarbonization efforts. In this episode, co-hosts Rich Ham and Philip Ideson speak with Martin Chilcott, Founder and CEO of 2 Degrees Limited and Founder of Manufacture 2030, to explore how procurement incentives could rapidly accelerate corporate decarbonization. Martin works with global corporations across manufacturing, pharmaceuticals, and automotive industries, and he's seen firsthand how carbon strategies succeed or stall based on the commercial relationship between procurement and their suppliers. Martin points out an important truth that many procurement leaders understand but struggle to quantify: "Carbon costs exist right now, even if they don't appear on your budget line." He shared concrete examples like Panama Canal disruptions and cocoa price hikes, with climate disruptions already impacting business financials. The problem, he says, isn't awareness, but short-termism and narrow financial definitions that discourage investment. As Martin says, "If reducing emissions isn't explicitly worth the effort financially, suppliers won't make the effort." The way forward requires fundamental changes to how procurement defines value. By reframing total cost of ownership to explicitly include carbon, implementing longer-term contracts with carbon reduction targets, and building targeted supplier incentives, procurement can make decarbonization both profitable and achievable.

In this special replay episode, Rob Port and Chad Oban revisit a timely conversation with former North Dakota Republican Party Chair Bob Harms. With infighting and censures making headlines again, Harms' perspective on internal party dynamics, district-level power struggles, and the long-term risks to the GOP brand hits even harder today. The discussion dives into how party rules, legislative overreach, and local gamesmanship are discouraging participation and undermining transparency. Harms also shares his concerns about property tax reform, the future of the Legacy Fund, and what happens when politics becomes more about power than principle.

Today, we're kicking off our summer bonus episodes with a little ode to sidewalk art installations! We're not just talking about little free libraries (though those are awesome!) we're talking about the weird, wild and creative ways people express themselves and spread joy through artistic, playful, interactive installations on their sidewalks, stoops and fences, and the unique, important role these little joy blips have in building stronger communities.I first stumbled across the PDX Dinorama Instagram account, run by Portland's Rachael Harms Malant, during the pandemic. The account didn't just promote the little Dinorama she built in front of her house, it was more like a record of all the little fun and funky sidewalk installations that are speckled around the city. From PDX Sidewalk Ducks to a 6-hole golf course that someone built in their front yard, the installations Rachael was highlighting on her account went way above and beyond anything I'd seen, and with little kids to get out of the house and little money to spend, I was so grateful for every last one of them. I've been wanting to have her on the show for ages to talk about her passion for these little expressions of joy and welcome that pepper our city (and are popping up around the world now), and I am so thrilled to have her episode kick off some summer MOFITA fun.Chatting with Rachael was seriously heart-warming summer fun, and we hope you'll tune in! In in the episode, she shares tips for creating your own little sidewalk joy invitation, and she has tons of examples and tutorials on her Instagram page, too. But, all you really need to do to get inspired is head outside on a walk, especially if you're lucky enough to live in a town with folks on the sidewalk joy map. As Rachael explains in the episode: “People are craving community, and community is — and is going to continue to be — so very important for all of us. So this kind of connecting and sharing that Sidewalk Joy helps promote in different communities is going to continue to be vital.”If you walk around your neighborhood and don't see any little mini-fig galleries, dinoramas or take-a-car-leave-a-cars, maybe your could be the first!

MagaMama with Kimberly Ann Johnson: Sex, Birth and Motherhood
In this episode, Kimberly and Alex discuss his extensive background in working with children on the Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). He spent much of those years taking a non-traditional approach from just behavioral to prioritizing fun and community. This work led him to keenly understanding the importance of local agriculture, nutrition, and the gut-brain connection, and eventually he began working as an animal butcher and supporting his wife's work, The Wild Nutritionist. Aspects of their discussion are connected through the thread of the importance of holistic care for ASD individuals as well as local farming, nutrition, and the gut-brain connection. Bio Alex Johnson is a father, butcher, former autism specialist, husband of Kate Pope, The Wild Nutritionist, and long-term friend of Kimberly's. His background in theater studies, and then psychology, led him to working with children on the Autism Spectrum Disorder for over a decade. Understanding the needs of this population then helped him transition to regenerative agriculture and animal butchery.

In this episode, Therese Markow and Dr. Cheryl Hawkes discuss the increasing scientific evidence that maternal obesity affects the developing fetal brain. While many of the effects manifest early, in infant temperament and childhood cognitive (IQ) decrements, other effects do not show up until years later, in adult psychiatric and neurodegenerative problems. The physical bases for these changes in fetal brains are also clearly evidenced in laboratory model systems, such as mice, where the maternal diets can be controlled, and the offspring not only can be given behavioral tests, but their brains can be dissected to reveal the changes in the blood vessels caused by obese mothers. Key Takeaways: Children born to obese mothers have lower IQs and poorer motor, spatial, and verbal skills. Mice and rodents have similar brain development to humans, which is why rodent study models are so beneficial to science. Brain maturation takes many years. Your brain is fully formed at birth, but continues to mature and change into your mid-twenties. "Because of the rise in obesity globally, a lot of people have started to look, rather than looking at famine…, to now shift our attention to looking at the long-term effects of obesity because 30% of women around the world, over the age of 18, are now considered to be obese." — Dr. Cheryl Hawkes Connect with Dr. Cheryl Hawkes: Lancaster University Profile: Dr. Cheryl Hawkes Connect with Therese: Website: www.criticallyspeaking.net Threads: @critically_speaking Email: theresemarkow@criticallyspeaking.net Audio production by Turnkey Podcast Productions.

Sometimes, coaches like us hold ourselves back because we think our 'inherent flaws' are unchangeable barriers to success. In today's episode, I explore why we tend to blame ourselves when things aren't working in our coaching business and how this self-blame creates a self-fulfilling prophecy that keeps us stuck. You'll discover a powerful reframe question that helps break this self-blame cycle, along with specific examples from my clients who have transformed their businesses by embracing their perceived flaws as strengths. I'll also share practical ways to redirect your thinking when self-blame arises so you can embrace your authentic self in your coaching practice.

My guest is Dr. Jay Bhattacharya, MD, PhD, Director of the National Institutes of Health (NIH) and Professor Emeritus of Health Policy at Stanford University. We discuss which scientific questions ought to be the priority for NIH, how to incentivize bold, innovative science especially from younger labs, how to solve the replication crisis and restore trust and transparency in science and public health, including acknowledging prior failures by the NIH. We discuss the COVID-19 pandemic and the data and sociological factors that motivated lockdowns, masking and vaccine mandates. Dr. Bhattacharya shares his views on how to resolve the vaccine–autism debate and how best to find the causes and cures for autism and chronic diseases. The topics we cover impact everyone: male, female, young and old and, given that NIH is the premier research and public health organization in the world, extend to Americans and non-Americans alike.

In this episode of Quality Talks With Peggy O'Kane, NCQA President Peggy O'Kane sits down with Dr. Rita Redberg, a cardiology pioneer and fierce advocate for evidence-based care. Dr. Redberg, who famously served as Editor-in-Chief of JAMA Internal Medicine for 14 years, shares her "Less is More" philosophy — a perspective that challenges the view that "more" care is always better.Join Peggy and Rita as they explore:The Problem with "More": Why a health care culture focused on technology and volume over patient needs leads to runaway costs and poor results.The Stent Story: How a widely adopted procedure in cardiology gained traction without initial evidence of patient benefit, and the uphill battle to integrate rigorous clinical trials.Mary Caldwell's Odyssey: A cautionary tale illustrating the dangerous cascade of unnecessary testing and interventions, based on a desire for reassurance rather than clinical need.Re-evaluating Statins: Rita's unconventional view on the use of statins in asymptomatic people. She advocates lifestyle changes over medication when the evidence of benefit is thin.Rebuilding Trust: How the fee-for-service payment model erodes the patient-doctor relationship and how regulatory reforms can shift incentives towards patient wellbeing.Rita reminds us that health care quality isn't about more tests or interventions. It's about thoughtful, patient-centered decisions and a commitment to "first, do no harm." This episode is a must-listen for anyone curious about improving health outcomes and reducing waste in health care.Key Quote:Most statins are prescribed for people that have not already had a heart attack or have established coronary disease. In that higher risk group, there is some benefit to taking statins. It's not huge but there is some benefit.But most people I see, and most people taking statins, are not in that category. They're healthy people that want to prevent a heart attack and want to live longer. They definitely are not going to feel better.

Americans are watching more porn than ever before, including both children and adults. Savage discusses the detrimental effects of pornography with Dr. John Foubert, PhD, a scholar and expert on sexual assault prevention. They explore how pornography can lead to permanent mental damage, its addictive nature, and its negative impact on marriages and relationships. Dr. Foubert explains how pornographic content has become increasingly violent and degrading, and comments on the various myths surrounding its supposed benefits. They discuss the link between pornography and sexual assault, as well as its psychological effects, such as increased anxiety, depression, and loneliness. The conversation also touches on the lack of substantial political pushback against the porn industry and the challenges in combating its influence.
