This week on Mea Culpa, Michael finds himself at peak frustration as the Trump Train barrels this country towards oblivion. How can a nation that is built upon reason find itself in such an unreasonable position, where a two-bit, wannabe despot can work the corners of our legal system to halt the entire transition of power? With the country exhausted from the trauma of this never ending election and the looming specter of death from COVID, we all are stuck in a terrible limbo. Searching for answers and rational thought, Michael speaks with Harvard University Professor of Constitutional Law, Laurence Tribe. One of the main architects of Al Gore's recount fight from the 2000 election, Tribe has argued 35 cases in front of the Supreme Court and finds himself mired in the current mess; advising the Biden team from afar as one frivolous lawsuit after another is filed.

In this video we will take a look at the proposed theory that aliens have crossed our paths on various occasions and attempted communication through interplanetary space travel and technological assimilation. Of course, this position has been taken by many scientists and theorists in the past. However; when someone as highly distinguished and decorated as Professor Loeb states that such alien lifeforms have been and gone, without us even noticing, people tend to listen. So who is Professor Avi Loeb and why is his proposal so important? What evidence or study does Loeb attribute to his theories? And; if true, what does this mean for the future of contact with the extraterrestrials of the cosmos?

During the pandemic, schools across the country shut down and shifted to remote learning. Now, studies show that the consequences of this have left American students with an education deficit, with difficulties in key areas such as reading and math. Harvard University Professor of Education Thomas Kane joins the Rundown to discuss what factors in remote learning contributed to the negative phenomenon of learning loss and why school districts need to reconsider how they spend their funds to help students recover. Later, Illinois' Peoria County Regional Superintendent Beth Crider joins to discuss how she's witnessed students' learning and development be stunted by the pandemic and what action can be taken now to mitigate the severe learning loss.   Today is Ash Wednesday, and for many Christians, it's seen as a day to deepen their relationship with God. However, many studies have shown that the percentage of Americans identifying as Christians has decreased throughout the decades. Thousands of churches nationwide have closed in recent years, and many attribute the pandemic as a reason for this trend. As a former priest, this trend does not scare Jonathan Morris. The theologian and FOX News Contributor joins the Rundown to discuss the factors behind this shift in faith, and why he believes people, not the church, should change with the times to keep up with God.   Plus, commentary by Former Secretary of Housing and Urban Development, Dr. Ben Carson.

Today's episode features historian and Harvard University Professor, Niall Ferguson. Lexman and Niall discuss the role of proxemics in human behavior, how repair can be used to prevent or resolve conflict, the superhero trope of juvenescence, and the use of jackhammers in Coventry.

Host Paul Johnson welcomes Harvard University Professor and author Steven Pinker.  They discuss the new wave of enlightenment, what stands in the way of us being more rational, the difference between being an optimist and an optimistic, free speech, cancel culture, and more. Paul Johnson and Prof. Steven Pinker discuss the ongoing issue of American people losing faith, which often leads to losing agency and having a problem with identity politics.  Prof. Pinker touches upon the fact that several historical trends have gone in a positive direction but that people aren't aware of this because they get their world's view from the news. Paul Johnson and Prof. Pinker talk about the causes behind this new enlightenment, why the U.S. seems to be behind compared to other Western Countries and the conditions that have created the ongoing enlightenment period. Why do ‘progressives hate to see progress?' Prof. Pinker shares his thoughts and the psychological aspects that he believes may stand behind that line of thinking. Prof. Pinker illustrates what he considers things that stand in the way of us becoming more rational.   Paul asks Prof. Pinker about his approach that tends to be questioning everything: the values of the left, his own ideas, and himself.  Prof. Pinker talks about how, from a psychological standpoint, to help people rationalize and look at things rationally when they are panicking. Paul and Prof. Pinker go over amygdala hijacking, and the difference between being an optimist and being optimistic. Nowadays, there seems to be a strong streak of authoritarianism by the left and young people seem to be strong supporters of free speech. Paul and Prof. Pinker discuss why that appears to be the case. Prof. Pinker shares what he believes gives him the ability to test the norms, even when they could lead to long-term challenges for his career.

With record low water levels that threaten hydropower generation, the federal government has decided to retain water in Lake Powell and release less to Lake Mead and beyond. But the Colorado River basin still faces a long-term water shortage that imperils the future of cities and farms in the Southwest.  Also, the sea ice that Inuit people rely on for travel and hunting is growing dangerously thin. Now, sensors and GPS technology along with Inuit traditional knowledge are helping to measure sea ice in real time. And as civilization hurtles toward climate disaster, the world continues to rely heavily on fossil fuels and drag its heels on transitioning to clean energy. Harvard University Professor of the History of Science Naomi Oreskes joins us to note climate change science is unequivocal and why the paths to solving the climate crisis are political and social.

It is hard to believe, but there is a world leader who laments that previous dictators did not kill more of their countrymen. He also has pretty clear ties to violent militias, including one militia who killed a city councilwoman in Rio. However hard it may be to believe, this is the case with Brazil and their President, Jair Bolsonaro. In this episode we speak with Harvard University Professor, Bruno Carvalho, about the rise of President Bolsonaro and how people can support such a man. This insightful discussion provides listeners with the opportunity to learn more about authoritarians and how they come to power. It is helpful to understanding the wider trend of democratic backsliding and what needs to be done to confront it.

This week's guest is Harvard University Professor of Biological Sciences, Dan Lieberman. If you've heard of Dan it will probably be in connection with his work around whether we are born to run, i.e. that a number of specific evolutionary adaptations that we as a species have acquired over time have enabled us to be really rather good at running for long distances. This hinted that our survival was aided by our ability to hunt by wearing animals down, known as the persistence hunting.  Dan has a new book out called Exercised, which as Dan explains is cutely entitled because so many people are so exercised about exercise, I expect you can think of many people that have opinions that are so specific and adamant that one way is the best way. The book takes a broader view, reminding us of our biological origins, why we do sports and exercise, what we're good and not so good at and Dan takes aim at a few current myths like sitting being the new smoking, step counts and how much exercise is enough - in so doing Dan widens our perspective to a healthier, compassionate view of physical activity.   Show notes: Pigs on treadmills. Research trip to Sierra and finding an older equivalent of the Ironman Exercise is abnormal, if just for the sake of health and fitness Why the Tarahumara Native Americans are famous for their long distance running No-one evolved to run as fast as possible from A to B  We have become exercised about exercise Is there an optimal form of exercise? Running fast Proactive aggression The benefits of endurance as hunter gatherers and the feats we care about most now are more recent in our history Links Website for Dan's new book Dan is delivering a seminar for the University of British Columbia on 24th March 2021, titled 'Are we born to rest or run?'

Three things that have changed me in recent years: losing my mom (2015); Certified Professional Coach training (2018); Having my (surprise!) baby girl (2019).   Author details: I always wrote short stories, starting with winning an award for a short horror story in the fifth grade, but I didn't start writing seriously until I got the bug to write a novel in 2010. After many drafts, deletions, and tears, my debut novel, Choosing Evil was purchased by a small press publisher, Frost Books in 2014. Frost Books also published its sequel, Breaking Evil. However, by 2017 I was ready to take my rights back, which I did. I published those two books, as well as the rest of my books - Winter Road, Luring Shadows, Twisted and Among Us, under my own publishing company, Indigo Hawk Group.   Author Bio: Kristina Rienzi is a Jersey Shore-based new adult thriller author, certified professional coach, and the former president of Sisters in Crime-Central Jersey.

In this episode of Raw Talk Podcast, we try to understand what memory is, the processes that affect the quality of our memories and the implications of faulty memory on the validity of eyewitness testimonies in the legal system. First we hear from Joey DeGrandis who shares his unique ability to recall specific details of autobiographical events. This rare memory phenomenon, known as Highly Superior Autobiographical Memory (HSAM), provides an opportunity to investigate the brain systems underlying enhanced memory and conversely memory loss.  We then hear from Dr. Amy Finn, an assistant professor at the Department of  Psychology at the University of Toronto, and the principal investigator of the Learning and Neural Development Lab. Dr. Finn discusses memory formation and how the brain and cognitive development constrains and enables learning, using examples, such as the famous case of patient H.M. To better understand the ‘faults in our memory’, Dr. Daniel Schacter, a Harvard University Professor, discusses his work on how memory’s malfunctions may be classified into seven fundamental transgressions or “sins” and describes the seven sins of memory errors. Finally, we hear from Dr. Elizabeth Loftus, who shares her experience on how memory may be manipulated and modified by messages, ideas, suggestions and other post-event information.  Dr. Loftus’ memory research has had significant applications to the legal field, given its reliance on memory.  Join us as we put our own memories to the test and learn more about how we remember….and forget, on this week’s episode of Raw Talk.

Alien ship may be among us, Harvard astronomer insists, despite grumbling and criticism from peers Article Link: https://www.chicagotribune.com/news/nationworld/science/ct-harvard-astronomer-aliens-20190204-story.html Before he started the whole alien spaceship thing last year, the chairman of Harvard University 's astronomy department was known for public lectures on modesty. Personal modesty, which Avi Loeb said he learned growing up on a farm. And what Loeb calls "cosmic modesty" - the idea that it's arrogant to assume we are alone in the universe, or even a particularly special species. He mentions that four TV crews were in this office on the day in the fall when his spaceship theory went viral, and now five film companies are interested in making a movie about his life. "Oh, this is something I did last night," Loeb says. It's a calculation, he explains, supporting his theory that an extraterrestrial spacecraft, or at least a piece of one, may at this moment be flying past the orbit of Jupiter. Since publishing his controversial paper, Loeb has run a nearly nonstop media circuit, embracing the celebrity that comes from being perhaps the most academically distinguished E.T. enthusiast of his time When astronomers in Hawaii stumbled across the first known interstellar object in late 2017 - a blip of light moving so fast past the sun that it could only have come from another star - Loeb had three decades of Ivy League professorship and hundreds of astronomical publications on his résumé, mostly to do with the nature of black holes and early galaxies and other subjects far from any tabloid shelf. So when seemingly every astronomer on the planet was trying to figure out how the interstellar object (dubbed 'Oumuamua, Hawaiian for "scout") got to our remote patch of Milky Way, Loeb's extraordinarily confident suggestion that it probably came from another civilization could not be easily dismissed. "Considering an artificial origin, one possibility is that 'Oumuamua" - pronounced Oh-mooah-mooah - "is a lightsail, floating in interstellar space as a debris from an advanced technological equipment," Loeb wrote with his colleague Shmuel Bialy in Astrophysical Journal Letters in November - thrilling E.T. enthusiasts and upsetting the fragile orbits of space academia. " 'Oumuamua is not an alien spaceship, and the authors of the paper insult honest scientific inquiry to even suggest it," tweeted Paul Sutter, an astrophysicist at Ohio State University , shortly after the paper published. "A shocking example of sensationalist, ill-motivated science," theoretical astrophysicist Ethan Siegel wrote in Forbes. North Carolina State University astrophycisist Katie Mack suggested Loeb was trolling for publicity.  Show Stuff TeePublic Store - Get your UBR goodies today! http://tee.pub/lic/2GQuXxn79dg UBR Trurh Seekers Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/216706068856746 Manny Moonraker: https://www.facebook.com/MannyMoonraker/ UFO Buster Radio: https://www.facebook.com/UFOBusterRadio YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCggl8-aPBDo7wXJQ43TiluA Google Plus Manny's Updated Google+ Profile: https://plus.google.com/u/0/+MannyMoonraker To contact Manny: manny@ufobusterradio.com, or on Twitter @ufobusterradio  Call the show anytime at (972) 290-1329 and leave us a message with your point of view, UFO sighting, and ghostly experiences or join the discussion on www.ufobusterradio.com For Skype Users: bosscrawler

The question of the day is.... what do we do when "settled science" is challenged by new discovery? Welcome to a brand new year and a brand new batch of "uncomfortable" conversations. I wanted to kick of the year in a big banging beautiful way and I believe that's exactly what we're doing today. Today's episode is my conversation with Harvard University Professor of Science, Dr. Abraham (Avi) Loeb on his controversial thoughts about our first interstellar visitor, Oumuamua. Dr. Loeb has a list of credentials as long as my arm, a vast body of work in the scientific community, and most importantly, a much more humble and open mind than many of his colleagues seem to. So, when an interstellar space object was spotted in our solar system that seemed to have many unnatural traits to it, Avi proposed that the object might, in fact, be of unnatural origin, a possibility that others in the scientific community aren't yet willing to consider.  Have we spotted the first sign of intelligent life in the universe outside of ourselves? What do scientists have to hide? Will Dan be able to resist bringing up his crazy anti-science conspiracy theories? Find out now on today's episode of The System is Down: Oumuamua: Our Interstellar Visitor w. Dr. Avi Loeb of Harvard University Question Everything. Stay Uncomfortable. Let’s get weird!
