Join mega nerds Dre Alvarez and Jeff May as they geek out on a different nerdy cultural touchstone every month. Part reminiscence, part historical deep dive. This month, Dre and Jeff continue their season on Single-Season Animated Shows with the infamously mishandled, cult-favorite Clerks the Animated Series!There's a lot to unpack about one of television history's greatest What-If's, so let's switch from drugs to fireworks, spend money on a Super Bowl Ad for a show we hate, and be INCREDIBLY dated, as we tackle one of the most egregious examples of Disney's misplaced greed that, unfortunately, only lasted one [-third of a] season. And, of course, don't forget to follow Dre (@nerdnumbers) Jeff (@heytherejeffro2 or @heytherejeffro) on the socials, and have a nerdy day!

Josh Prince of @princeworksforge is back. Josh's childhood history of being surrounded by a family of artists informed his compulsion to create art and now beautiful cutting edge knives.

People in B.C. were caught by surprise when, in August 2025, a Supreme Court declared Aboriginal title on some privately held land, not far outside Metro Vancouver. Incredibly, most of the people that live inside the claim area weren't told about the unprecedented case, until the decision came out. In this documentary, the CBC's Georgie Smyth tells the stories of the Canadians tangled together by history, who now find themselves fighting for the same thing.

Spreagtha ag Verona Farrell, nó @secondhandhuns ar Insta, tá Louise ag iarraidh all things chic a phlé. Ach cad is 'chic' ann? An féidir cur síos a dhéanamh air? Tá díospóireacht againn faoi na rudaí atá chic agus not chic, dar linne, ar nós matching underwear (chic), espresso martinis (not chic BUT delish), and a red lip (hung jury). Doireann gets an awful touch for her wine fridge, argues for the chicness of iarthar Chorcaí, and somehow butchers the lyrics to TiK ToK le Kesha... Bain sult as an eip agus bí i dteagmháil linn le hinsint dúinn cad iad na rudaí atá chic, i do thuairim féin!

Hour 1 of Jake & Ben on March 10, 2026 The Utah Jazz won last night and a lot of fans are upset about it. Take a deep breath, it will be alright.  Top 3 Stories of the Day: AJ Dybantsa is the Big 12 Freshman of the Year, Big 12 Tournament starts today, Utah Mammoth lose to the Chicago Blackhawks again.  Draymond Green seems to be out of touch, this time with Golden State Warrriors fans. 

OA1242 - Ever heard of the “major questions doctrine”? Most lawyers sure hadn't until a few years ago. So how did it get that important-sounding name? Where did it come from? What even is it? How can we call something a “doctrine” or a rule if we don't have a clear rule statement to cite to? (Hint: You can't). If you've been feeling like maybe this is all made up and the points don't matter, you can get your vindication here as we trace back the history of this ever-changing heavily-politicized increasingly-disputed amorphous blob. Jenessa read way too many cases and law review articles to tolerate this nonsense today. Timeline, each citing the one below it: 1. “Major questions doctrine” first appearance in any court case: West Virginia v. Environmental Protection Agency, 597 U.S. 697 (2022) 2. “Major question doctrine” [not plural] in an EPA statement on deregulations: Repeal of the Clean Power Plan, 84 Fed. Reg. 32520, 32529 (proposed Jul. 8, 2019) (to be codified at 40 C.F.R. pt. 60). 3. “Major rules doctrine”: U.S. Telecom Association v. F.C.C., 855 F.3d 381, 422-423 (D.C. Cir 2017), Kavanaugh dissent. (Note: There are many decisions by this name, including one from the D.C. Circuit in 2016, all of which are more prevalent online. Only this exact citation, minus the “422-23” pincite, will get you to the right case. Unfortunately I cannot find it outside the paywall to provide a link). 4. “Economic and political significance” allegedly the first unnamed use of the concept: F.D.A. v. Brown & Williamson Tobacco Co. 529 U.S. 120 (2000) 5. “Major questions” first appears in any legal scholarship… well those words appear in that order, at least: Stephen Breyer, Judicial Review of Questions of Law and Policy, 38 Admin. L. Rev. 363 (1986). Meanwhile, in another timeline: Cass R. Sunstein, There are two “Major Questions” Doctrines, 73 Admin. L. Rev. 475, (2021). First ever use of “major questions rule/exception” in a positive light in legal scholarship. Would become more mainstream around 2013-2016: Abigail Moncrieff, Reincarnating the "Major Questions" Exception to Chevron Deference as a Doctrine of Non-Interference as a Doctrine of Non-Interference (Or Why Massachusetts v. EPA Got It Wrong), 60 Admin L. Rev. 593 (2008). Moncrieff, above, cites this as the original coining of “major questions”, not Breyer's 1986 paper: Cass R. Sunstein, Chevron Step Zero, 92 VA. L. Rev. 187 (2006). Other definitions from legal scholarship: Allison Orr Larsen, Becoming a Doctrine, 76 Fla. L. Rev. 1 (2024). Austin Piatt & Damonta D. Morgan, The Three Major Questions Doctrines, Forward Wis. L. Rev. 19 (2024). Thomas B. Griffith & Haley N. Proctor, Deference, Delegation, and Divination: Justice Breyer and the Future of the Major Questions Doctrine, 132 Yale L.J. F. 693 (2022). Chad Squitieri, Who Determines Majorness?, 44 Harv. J.L. & Pub. Pol'y 463 (2021). Kevin O. Leske, Major Questions about the “Major Questions” Doctrine, 5 Michigan Journal of Environmental & Administrative Law 479 (2016). Jonas J. Monast, Major Questions About the Major Questions Doctrine, 68 Admin. L. Rev. 445 (2016). Other relevant cases: Learning Resources, Inc. v. Trump, 607 U.S --- (2026) Biden v. Nebraska, 600 U.S. 477 (2023) King v. Burwell, 576 U.S. 473 (2015) Utility Air Regulatory Group v. EPA, 573 U.S. 302 (2014) Check out the OA Linktree for all the places to go and things to do!

Matt Walker investigates the "coffee paradox," revealing how your morning ritual acts as both a health ally and a silent sleep disruptor. While coffee provides life-extending antioxidants linked to lower risks of heart disease and Alzheimer's, its caffeine masks adenosine - the brain's signal for sleep pressure. Startling research shows that caffeine consumed even six hours before bed can strip away an hour of sleep, often without the sleeper ever realizing their sleep quality has been compromised.This episode outlines practical rules for timing and dosage based on your unique biology. Discover the "caffeine curfew," why genetics make many of us slow metabolizers, and how decaf provides an "antioxidant orchestra" without the sleep-disturbing "brass trumpet." By mastering these principles, you can enjoy the significant long-term health benefits of the bean while safeguarding the deep, restorative sleep necessary for your brain and body to recover every night.Please note that Matt is not a medical doctor, and none of the content in this podcast should be considered medical advice in any way, shape, or form, nor prescriptive in any way.One of today's sponsors, David, is a revolutionary new protein bar that boasts an unbeatable ratio: 28g of protein and 0g of sugar in just 150 calories.

One thing that I'll always remember about the end of my daily show experience is that one accompanying factor was the start of a war. It can be hard to keep at things when you're feeling down, and war had broken out in the Middle East the day I broke my streak of over 100 daily episodes. That's on my mind again because today's Cardinal is of Palestinian descent, and another war broke out today. So before we move on, I want to endorse both working for peace  and praying for peace. Goodness knows we need to do all we can, and that we need all the help we can get.  Also, before we get into things, please note that this episode was basically the one that sealed the deal on me going into my most recent hiatus. It took more research than expected because of the number of serious accusations adjacent to the story of our Cardinal of the day. Arguably I *could* have told most of future Cardinal Chomalí's story without getting into the Karadima case and subsequent Barros controversy, but that would have taken a lot of intentional sidelining of topics that unfortunately need to be front and center regardless of how controversial they are. Dozens of times we've seen the consequences of downplaying or sidelining such things, and I don't intend to contribute to that. If Cardinal Chomalí goes to the next round, I promise more of the focus will be on his own life and less on the dung he found himself shoveling. And now for the official warning: please note that this episode includes extensive discussion of scandal caused by the sexual abuse of minors and coverups. Listener discretion is advised. Today we're looking at our fifth bishop from the list of new Cardinals Pope Francis elevated on December 7th 2024–his last consistory for the creation of new Cardinals. Fernando Natalio CHOMALÍ GARIB, who describes himself as a descendent of a Palestinian, was born on March 10, 1957 in Santiago, Chile, the capital and largest city basically in the middle of the almost comically long country along South America's Pacific coast. Fernando is one of our late blooming vocations–his first degree was in Civil Engineering, though admittedly it was from the Pontifical Catholic University of Chile, which does host a seminary, though presumably our civil engineer didn't go through that side of things. Instead, when Fernando did decide to go to seminary and study theology and philosophy and such, it was through the Pontifical Major Seminary of Santiago, a storied institution in the suburbs. Enter the B plot for today, because in 1984, the same year Fernando entered seminary, a group of parishioners reported the “improper conduct” of another I cannot emphasize enough quite different Fernando, Father Fernando Karadima. The report was made to the Archbishop of Santiago, a man whose name I will not trouble you with because this is going  to be an episode with a lot of names as-is and he'll get his own episode in time. Allegedly the letter containing the report was “torn up and thrown away”, in any event nothing came of it at the time. The Archbishop's secretary, Juan Barros, possibly already Father Barros by this stage, was a protege of Karadima and would later wind up accused of helping cover up Father Karadima's crimes, and this is not the last time we will see him, so keep that name in mind. To recap, we have Father Karadima, a powerfully connected child rapist, potential Father Barros, a fan of Father Karadima and an alleged enabler, and not-yet Father Chomalí, our Cardinal of the day, who isn't connected to our B-Plot yet, so let's move his side of things forward and see how this plays out. In 1991, after seven years of study on top of his engineering degree, Franando Chomalí was ordained a priest for the Archdiocese of Santiago de Chile. After two years of yet further study, he then obtained a licentiate in Moral Theology from the Gregorian in Rome, followed a year later by a doctorate in Sacred Theology from the same storied institution in 1994. I did see some reference to pastoral work, but considering we're like five degrees deep and he still isn't done studying–hello masters in bioethics from the John Paul II Institute in Rome–it's not going to surprise you that Father Chomalí mainly followed the academic route, serving in bioethical and theological posts at the Major Pontifical Seminary of Santiago and the Pontifical University of Chile–both of these, you might recall, being institutions that he had personally attended. In 2001, presumably in part due to his bioethics credentials, he was added to the Pontifical Academy for Life for life, which, yes, I'm repeating myself because not only is “for Life” part of the name, but apparently it was a lifetime appointment. Unfortunately in 2016 Pope Francis shook things up so there are no more appointments to the Pontifical Academy for Life for life. In 2003, our B plot shows back up, with a successor Cardinal Archbishop of Santiago getting more reports of Father Karadima's monstrosities. You'll be pleased to know that at this point the Chilean Bishop's Conference had new processes in place and you'll be furious to know that those new processes were basically ignored while the Cardinal told the complainant that he was praying for him. Nothing was done, hashtag thoughts and prayers. The next year the same cardinal received another report, and you'll be pleased to know that this time the case wound up referred to a specialist, who determined the allegations were credible and recommended action. You'll then be *again* furious to learn that the Cardinal proceeded to ignore the determination and dismissed the case anyways. You'll hear more about all this in *that* cardinal's episode, for now let's get back to Fr  Chomalí, whose phone is ringing. His white phone. It's Pope Benedict, calling to make him Auxiliary Bishop of Santiago and Titular Bishop of Nola because you apparently just can't be an auxiliary bishop without a little patch of North Africa to theoretically but not practically call your own. Anyways, that all went down in 2006. In 2010, the Karadima case became international news for the first time when victims filed a criminal complaint in Chile's courts, twenty-five years after that first 1985 letter to Church authorities. The civil courts did not prove more helpful, dismissing the lawsuit due to the time having passed since the events in question, which really has me wanting to flip some tables. For what it's worth, the presiding judge made it clear that she thought Karadima was guilty as sin. The accusations now being public apparently stirred the Church into action. Suddenly the stonewalling Cardinal–reminder that's not Chomalí but another prelate we'll discuss in time–sent a reportedly 700 page file over to the Vatican, which in 2011 found Karadima guilty of abusing minors and sentenced him to a "life of prayer and penitence”. The by then 80 year old Karadima would continue protesting his innocence and by some accounts flaunt his ban from ministry, saying Mass for his followers, which, yes, he definitely *still* had followers. Also in 2011, our Cardinal of the Day Bishop Chomalí became Archbishop Chomalí when Pope Benedict made him Archbishop of Concepción, a bit south of Santiago, which was his first time really serving outside the capital apart from his studies in Rome. And with the Karadima case casting a shadow over the Church across the country, Archbishop Chomalí had his work cut out for him, with trust in the Church as an institution plummeting from 61% in 2010 to just 36% a year later according to polling data. Incredibly, Archbishop Chomalí managed to *increase* church membership in these conditions, probably aided by the broadly popular election of Pope Francis in 2013. Pope Francis wasn't magic though, and it's time to talk about one of his bigger mistakes. Remember Juan Barros, the Archbishop's secretary who was accused of helping protect his mentor Father Karadima? Well, he had been made a bishop back in the 90s, and in 2015 against the advice of basically everyone everywhere, Pope Francis decided to give Barros a new post as Bishop of Osorno. One of the voices against the appointment was Archbishop Chomalí, who was serving as Apostolic Administrator of Osorno at the time and so had front row seats to just how poorly it was coming across, and urged Pope Francis to reconsider. In addition, about half the clergy of the diocese publicly opposed the move–coming out in public against the guy who is set to be your boss is pretty gutsy–and even the politicians got involved, with 51 members of Chile's National Congress signing a letter opposing the move. Pope Francis carried on undaunted, and Bishop Barros was installed in a rather poorly attended ceremony, that is, poorly attended unless you count the hundreds of protestors who stormed the Cathedral. Bishop Barros came over to Osorno from the post he had held as the Military Ordinary for Chile. With that spot now vacant, you guessed it, Archbishop Chomalí was tapped to administer things for Chile's military, which, it's worth noting, grants him the rare privilege of being associated with Antarctica on GCatholic's database, thanks to the Chapel of St. Mary Queen of Peace in Chile's Antarctic zone. The controversy over Bishop Barros came to a head a few years later, when Pope Francis visited Chile. To be clear, the visit *didn't* calm things down–the word “firebombings” comes to mind–and Pope Francis didn't make a conciliatory gesture during the trip. Quite the opposite in fact. Pope Francis wound up defending his choice to appoint Bishop Barros and keep him in place, stating that the case against Barrros was baseless slander, committing that if he ever received evidence, he would respond. With the gauntlet thrown, the evidence apparently came, such that within months Pope Francis was apologizing for his stance, and the *entire* Bishops' Conference of Chile offered their resignations to the Pope, which might give a sense of the magnitude reached here. In the end, most of the bishops, including Archbishop Chomalí, were allowed to carry on, resignations not accepted, though Bishop Barros and three others were sacked as part of the reckoning. Later in the year, presumably as additional fallout from the visit and the subsequent fresh round of investigations, Karadima himself was laicized. *Mr.* Karadima would die in 2021. In October of 2023, Pope Francis appointed Archbishop Chomalí as the fourteenth Archbishop of Santiago de Chile. He became President of the Episcopal Conference of Chile at the same time, which I imagine was no coincidence, though there have been times recently when the two posts are held by different people. He had been the Conference's Vice President since 2021. Given his influential post in Chile's capital, Archbishop Chomalí's inclusion in Pope Francis's last batch of new Cardinals was hardly a surprise. Even though Pope Francis didn't heed his advice at the time, it's likely that Chomalí's advice against one of the biggest mistakes of Pope Francis' papacy was on both their minds as Francis made him a Cardinal. Shortly after Cardinal Chomalí was elevated, The Pillar, which is becoming something of a go-to source for church news, published a series of short interviews with several of the new Cardinals, including Chomalí. And so as we prepare to wrap things up for today, I'd like to offer you a short quotation from that piece so you can get a bit of flavoring from him rather than from the  various dumpster fires he was tasked with putting out: “Christian anthropology says that if we want to be happy, we have to give ourselves to others. And secular anthropology tells us that we have to seek happiness by our own means. But things end up badly for us that way because we find ourselves in a society that competes but doesn't find itself. And that is precisely where conflicts arise.” Along with his brother cardinals, Fernando Natalio Cardinal CHOMALÍ GARIB participated in the recent election of Pope Leo. Just before the conclave, Cardinal Chomalí shared a video of himself hand-washing his shirt as part of his preparations, and of course you can catch that exciting link in the show notes. Cardinal Chomali will be eligible to participate in future conclaves until he turns 80 in 2037. Today's episode is part of Cardinal Numbers, and we'll be talking about another one of the new cardinals next month. Or well, later this month, since this episode is a bit late. Thank you for listening, God bless you all! Thanks, Joe!

Football season is over, so it’s time to catch-up on this year’s basketball action. I have followed basketball ever since I could read the box scores.  That said, I must admit that my interest in the National Basketball Association has been waning over the past few decades. Perhaps it is a lingering 23-year bout of “LeBron James Syndrome.” The King (of flopping) is still playing hoops for the Los Angeles Lakers at the age of 41.  Incredibly, LeBron James is scoring 21 points per game during his 23rd NBA season.  Will this guy EVER retire? The defending NBA champion Oklahoma City Thunder is still leading the Western Conference. A vastly-improved San Antonio Spurs team is in hot pursuit and only two games back. The NBA Eastern Conference finds the (gasp!) Detroit Pistons leading the Boston Celtics by 5 ½ games. However, a growing number of losing teams are now trying to out-lose each other in order to finish with the coveted last place title. Welcome to tanking – the NBA regular season soap opera’s not-so-new problem A general definition of the term “tanking” is to intentionally field a noncompetitive team in order to take advantage of league rules which benefit the team losing the most games. In the NBA, the biggest loser generally has the most likely chance to select #1 in the annual player draft.  The current system utilizes a weighted average format with the worst of the 14 non-playoff teams having the best chance to receive the top pick. Unlike football or baseball, basketball has just five starting players.  Adding the top college basketball player might be enough to help your team become an immediate playoff contender. The NBA’s defending champion Oklahoma City Thunder “tanked” for three years (2021-2023).  By making some solid draft picks and a few nifty player trades, OKC is positioned to be a top team for several years to come. Once Oklahoma City transitioned from nearly worst to first, others are following the playbook. Case #1 – this year’s Detroit Pistons Detroit finished at or near the bottom of the NBA’s Eastern Conference for five consecutive years from 2020 through 2024.  The team’s lousy record earned the Pistons a number one choice (Cade Cunningham in 2021) plus the #5 pick three times and the #7 overall selection once. This year’s Detroit Pistons are now in first place in the NBA East with a 43-14 record.  Cade Cunningham averages 25 points per game and is an NBA All-Star.  Three of the team’s other four high draft selections are averaging about ten points per game for Detroit. Was it worth finishing near the bottom for several years to, perhaps, move to the top of the standings down the road? Case #2 – The San Antonio Spurs The five-time NBA champion San Antonio Spurs also went “all in” on tanking from 2022 through 2024.  They finished at the bottom of the NBA’s Western Conference in 2023 and earned the #1 overall selection. San Antonio’s talented 7’4” center Victor Wembanyama is now in his third season and averages 24 points and 12 rebounds per game.  He was the top pick in 2023 and has helped transform a woeful Spurs team into a contender in just two years. San Antonio also struck gold with 2024’s #4 overall selection, Stephon Castle.  The talented guard is averaging 17 points per game in his second NBA season. The rest of the NBA is copying Detroit and San Antonio with excessive tanking Nearly one third of the NBA’s teams are trying to lose games at a record pace this season. Winning even one basketball game can reduce your team’s chances to finish with a bad enough record to “win” a top NBA pick in June. There’s even a website called “Tankathon.com” dedicated to providing the daily odds of each NBA team trying losing its way to receive the #1 overall draft pick. Today’s stats showed that the leader (worst team in the NBA) is Sacramento (13-46).  The Kings have dropped nine of their last ten games.  Woo hoo – nice job, Sacto! In hot pursuit of the Kings are the Indiana Pacers (15-44) and Brooklyn Nets (15-42).  Both of those NBA teams have lost eight of their last ten games.  That’s just not good enough to be #1, guys! The woeful Washington Wizards sit in fourth place today at 16-41 with the New Orleans Pelicans perched right behind at 17-42.  The Pelicans’ coach may be in big trouble, though.  His team has actually won two games in a row! The Utah Jazz are trying to get into the mix for the #1 pick by fading fast, too.  They have an 18-40 record today but are on a three-game losing streak.  Lose, Jazz, lose!   Be careful what you wish for That group of NBA teams is hoping their fans will fantasize about having the top pick in the annual player draft in June. Historically speaking, the majority of these overall #1 choices will have a fairly productive NBA career. A few even blossom into NBA All-Stars. Unfortunately, most #1 overall selections do not lead their teams into the NBA Finals. Let’s remember a few failed #1 NBA picks from the past decade LSU’s “one and done” forward Ben Simmons was selected first in 2016 by the Philadelphia 76ers. His skills regressed with every season as a professional basketball player.  Already traded twice, Ben Simmons’ basketball play became so embarrassingly poor that none of the 30 NBA teams have this 29-year old player on their roster this season. Another #1 NBA flop has been shooting guard Markelle Fultz. Like Simmons, Fultz was drafted by the Philadelphia 76ers with the top pick in the 2017 draft.  Another prolific “one-and-done” freshman scorer in college, Markelle Fultz has been a major disappointment in the NBA.  He has averaged a meager 10 points per game over his first eight pro seasons and has been traded twice already. It’s still a bit early to say whether the Atlanta Hawks’ 2024 #1 overall pick is a draft bust.  However, 6’8” French forward Zaccarie Risacher is scoring just 10 points and 3.5 rebounds per game as he comes off the bench during his second NBA season. Other recent #1 overall picks have included: 2018 – Deandre Ayton (drafted by Phoenix, traded to Portland, and traded in 2025 to the Los Angeles Lakers) 2019 – Zion Williamson (New Orleans Pelicans – unlikely to make the playoffs) 2020 – Anthony Edwards (Minnesota Timberwolves) 2021 – Cade Cunningham (Detroit Pistons) 2022 – Paolo Banchero (Orlando Magic) 2023 – Victor Wembanyama (San Antonio Spurs) 2025 – Cooper Flagg (Dallas Mavericks – unlikely to make the playoffs) None of the past ten #1 overall picks has led their team to the NBA Finals. Watch out, tankers!  The NBA Commissioner is actually cracking down Adam Silver knows that nearly half of his NBA franchises are intentionally trying to lose games right now.  He understands that it is bad for business over the long run.  The NBA is morphing into two different leagues – the competitors and a growing legion of purposeful losers. Earlier this month, Commissioner Silver fined the Utah Jazz $500,000 and Indiana Pacers $100,000 for purposefully keeping healthy starters on the bench during the fourth quarter of games to insure that their teams would lose. “Overt behavior like this that prioritizes draft position over winning undermines the foundation of NBA competition,” said Silver. No kidding, Commish! Hall-of-Famer Charles Barkley has a few ideas to help end tanking.  He recently said that he wants every NBA team failing to make the playoffs to receive only ONE ping-pong ball in the NBA’s lottery when selecting the top 14 picks.  Each of the 14 losing teams would then have the same 7% (1/14) chance of receiving the #1 pick. That’s a good place to start, Chuck! He also asked the Commissioner to ban any NBA team finishing with less than a .500 record from raising ticket prices the following season. The NBA owners would give that particular idea of Barkley an overwhelming thumbs down! One “anti-tanking” proposal is receiving a lot of positive feedback Incentives work.  That is why so many NBA teams are trying to lose as many games as possible down the home stretch to receive the top draft pick this summer. Here’s an excellent idea receiving a lot of support. Each of the NBA’s 14 non-playoff teams would still be assured of receiving a pick from #1-14.  However, the draft order for those first 14 selections would be based on the number of WINS which each team collects over the second half of the NBA season. That would incentivize every NBA team to try to win every game during the second half of the season.  The upper tier of teams will be positioning for a better playoff seed.  All of the bottom tier of teams would be battling to enhance their own draft position. The biggest complainers about this proposal are teams which may have lost star players to injuries and cannot compete as effectively through season’s end. To that, I say, “Tough luck!” Do it, Commissioner Silver! Have you heard…the current #1 college basketball player may be tanking, too! The #14-ranked Kansas Jayhawks put months of effort and doled out millions in NIL loot into the recruitment of talented 6’6” freshman guard Darryn Peterson. Kansas coach Bill Self’s top recruit has been exceptional – at times.  He has also been mysteriously invisible for several games this season, too. Darryn Peterson has missed several games with a lingering hamstring injury early in the season.  Since then, he has claimed to suffer from cramps after playing a certain number of minutes in KU basketball games.  More recently, the highly touted Peterson sat out a few more games with a mysterious illness. Teammates, fans, and the media have wondered if the freshman was, effectively, self-tanking to avoid injury ahead of the NBA draft. NBA scouts have been whispering to Darryn Peterson’s family that the freshman player is likely to become this year’s top selection. Peterson’s not-so-humble father, Darryl, provided this quote Monday, “We embrace what comes with this journey.  The good and the bad.  It has taught us so many life lessons to prepare Darryn and our family for what he’s about to go through being the #1 pick and future face of someone’s franchise and the league.” The young basketball player transferred away from his primary high school in Canton, Ohio to play his junior year at Huntington Prep School in West Virginia.  For his senior year, Darryn Peterson transferred to play high school basketball in California for Pacific Prep. How many high school kids would be willing to do that – just to market himself better for college and pro basketball? Thankfully, not very many (yet). Darryn Peterson has not helped to dispel the growing concerns of his teammates and loyal Kansas basketball fans. They are questioning the freshman’s commitment to the program’s success and whether the team is better off without him. Kansas (now 21-7) has gone 9-2 in the games where Peterson was absent.  The Jayhawks are 12-5 in the games Peterson has played. An increasing number of Jayhawks supporters would prefer for the freshman prima donna to hit the road right now and wait by the telephone for his name to be called by the NBA. Tanking (whether as a team or by an individual) should never be a winning strategy. The post Tanks for Nothing appeared first on SwampSwamiSports.com.

Read along to practice your English and to learn the English phrases TO LEARN SOMETHING THE HARD WAY and THAT'LL TEACH'EM!TRANSCRIPT:In this English lesson, I wanted to help you learn the English phrase to learn something the hard way. This is a phrase... It's kind of a funny phrase because it means someone has learned something in a very difficult way. I should just give you an example so you know what I'm talking about.If you have the stove on and you accidentally touch the burner, you've learned something the hard way. You've learned that you shouldn't touch the burner on the stove when it's hot. When a small child first sees a candle and they all... they put their finger close to the flame and suddenly pull their finger away, they have, they've learned something the hard way.There are many things like this. When people first walk on ice, when people move to Canada and they first walk on ice and they slip and fall, they've learned the hard way that ice is slippery. I shouldn't laugh, but it happens sometimes.People just aren't aware of how slippery it is. The other phrase I wanted to teach you today is a little meaner. And it's the phrase that'll teach 'em, which is short for that will teach them or that will teach you or that will teach him or her. It simply means you see someone fall on the ice and in your mind you think that'll teach them, that'll teach them not to walk so quickly on the ice next time.Again, not a very nice thing to say. Kind of mean and kind of rude. But it's when you see someone do something where you would use the phrase to learn something the hard way. And then you say if you're really mean and rude, or you think if you're less mean and rude, that'll teach them.So to review to learn something the hard way, if you hit your thumb with a hammer, you have learned the hard way that a hammer is very hard and it will hurt you. And that if you put your thumb in a dumb spot and hit your thumb with a hammer and someone sees you, they might say, that'll teach them.But hey, let's look at a comment from a previous video. This comment is from Tacagero, and the comment is, Incredibly clean sidewalks. I see no snow at all. Very beautiful. Spring is around the corner, I guess. And my response, we try to keep things tidy, but as things warm up, the mud will come.Well, we've actually, thanks, Tacagero, for that comment. We've actually gone kind, of the other way here, in Ontario, Canada. Right now, as you can see, there's snow again. It's a little bit... I think it's starting to melt a little bit.That might also just be from the road salt. But, let me check if the snow is packy. Yeah, it's packy snow. So if you wanted, you could build a snowman today. That means it's probably one degree and the snow is starting to melt a little bit.And that makes it packy. It makes it what we call packing snow. And you can make a snowman. Maybe I should do that when I get home today. But, what were we talking about? Super clean sidewalks. Even when there is snow, the sidewalks are kept very clean.And I'm not sure if you can see there's actually salt. That little crystal there that I'm moving around with my foot is actually a salt crystal. And we put salt on the sidewalks, to make sure they don't freeze and get slippery.And so people who recently moved to this snowy climate don't fall. And have people say, that'll teach them, or so they don't have to learn something the hard way. I also wanted to show you this. As things start to melt, we have quite a bit of water flow in the local creek.Sometimes this creek dries right up, but today, as you can see, it's running quite well and it will go even higher as we get more and more snow melt in the area. Anyways, thanks for watching this short English lesson. I'll see you next week with another one.Bye.

Dr. Nicholas Nelson discusses the importance of listening to and understanding the body's natural healing processes, emphasizing the need to shift from external fixes to internal healing. Dr. Nelson highlights the body's inherent intelligence and the importance of breaking free from conditioning that leads to seeking quick fixes. The episode concludes with Dr. Nelson emphasizing the empowerment that comes from self-education and the need for a reconstructive approach to the healthcare system.Key takeawaysThe body has innate intelligence and healing capabilities that we should trust rather than overrideWestern medicine often pathologizes symptoms instead of understanding them as communication from the bodyHealth requires understanding the "three Ts": thoughts, traumas, and toxins that affect our wellbeingSeasonal illnesses may be the body's natural way of recalibrating to environmental changesLearning about how our bodies work empowers us to take control of our health rather than outsourcing itSmall, consistent changes can lead to significant health improvements over timeA holistic approach to health includes physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual aspectsDr. Nicholas James Nelson is a researcher, speaker, and emerging thought leader who's quietly challenging the way we've been taught to think about the human body. After more than a decade of research, he's developed two original theories that bridge science, consciousness, and lived human experience, work that now forms the foundation of his new book, Inner Alchemy.

The boys briefly dunk on the flop of an alternate half-time that was the TPUSA All-American Halftime Show, then they dive into recent electoral victories by left populists across the country. Later, Mike Nellis, host of Endless Urgency and Democratic strategist joins the show to discuss how Democrats move forward, and the boys end by breaking down the DHS funding battle (or lack thereof), Trump's insanely racist post of the Obamas, and potential WAR with Iran.Mike Nellis Endless Urgency: https://endlessurgency.com/?utm_campaign=profile_chipsEarly access on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/headintheofficepodSubstack: https://headintheoffice.substack.com/HITO Merch: https://headintheoffice.com/ Get 40% off Ground News: https://ground.news/checkout/all?fpr=headintheoffice YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC4iJ-UcnRxYnaYsX_SNjFJQSubscribe to second channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC3UoTN328OA7fK2dzicP-ZATikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@headintheoffice?lang=enInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/headintheoffice/Twitter: https://twitter.com/headintheofficeThreads: https://www.threads.com/@headintheofficeDiscord: https://discord.gg/hito Collab inquiries: headintheofficepod@gmail.comSeen on this episode: Election news - https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/2026-election/pro-israel-super-pac-losing-bet-new-jersey-democratic-primary-rcna257779 https://www.nytimes.com/2026/02/06/us/politics/aipac-new-jersey-malinowski-mejia-israel-gaza-democrats.html https://abcnews.go.com/Politics/texas-democrat-flipped-reliably-red-district-people-tired/story?id=129826382 https://www.cbsnews.com/news/chasity-verret-martinez-wins-democrat-louisiana-special-election-trump/ DHS funding - https://thehill.com/homenews/senate/5727162-dhs-funding-deal-shutdown-deadline/

Buying a Bride: An Engaging History of Mail-Order Matches / L.A. Secret Police. Inside the LAPD Elite Spy NetworkThere have always been mail-order brides in America—but we haven't always thought about them in the same ways. In Buying a Bride, Marcia A. Zug starts with the so-called “Tobacco Wives” of the Jamestown colony and moves all the way forward to today's modern same-sex mail-order grooms to explore the advantages and disadvantages of mail-order marriage. It's a history of deception, physical abuse, and failed unions. It's also the story of how mail-order marriage can offer women surprising and empowering opportunities.Drawing on a forgotten trove of colorful mail-order marriage court cases, Zug explores the many troubling legal issues that arise in mail-order marriage: domestic abuse and murder, breach of contract, fraud (especially relating to immigration), and human trafficking and prostitution. She tells the story of how mail-order marriage lost the benign reputation it enjoyed in the Civil War era to become more and more reviled over time, and she argues compellingly that it does not entirely deserve its current reputation. While it is a common misperception that women turn to mail-order marriage as a desperate last resort, most mail-order brides are enticed rather than coerced. Since the first mail-order brides arrived on American shores in 1619, mail-order marriage has enabled women to improve both their marital prospects and their legal, political, and social freedoms. Buying A Bride uncovers this history and shows us how mail-order marriage empowers women and should be protected and even encouraged. L.A. Secret Police. Inside the LAPD Elite Spy NetworkL.A. Secret Police. Inside the LAPD Elite Spy Network is a New York Times and Los Angeles Times Bestseller. This incredible non-fiction book rips the lid off the LAPD and exposes the reader to its dark underbelly of corruption during the reign of Chief Daryl Gates. L.A. cops ruined lives and reputations, inflicted mindless brutality, committed murder and engaged in massive cover-ups. In Los Angeles, police corruption was much more than unmarked envelopes stuffed with cash. It was a total corruption of power. For decades LAPD engaged in massive illegal spying and lied about it. Its spying targets included politicians, movie stars, professional athletes, news reporters and anyone wielding power or those of interest to Daryl Gates. Incredibly, the spying targets included a Director of the Central Intelligence Agency, a Secretary of Defense, a current Governor and the President of the United States. It all happened in Los Angeles.Detective Rothmiller is the modern-day Frank Serpico; he exposed the tentacles of corruption which reached to the highest levels within the LAPD and Washington D.C. It wasn't long after that an assassin attempted to take his life. It was apparent to many that powerful forces wanted him silenced. Incredibly, in this book Detective Rothmiller names names! See why this book changed the LAPD and is required reading at many universities. As former Assistant United States Attorney Marvin Rudnick said, “Rothmiller was in a position to know. He did very sensitive work.”Every book has an ending. However, the ending of this book will shock you. Within the new epilogue is a multi-page essay written especially for this updated book by Pulitzer Prize winning journalist David Cay Johnston. In it he describes his personal experience as a target of Daryl Gates illegal intelligence operations while he served as a Los Angeles Times reporter. You'll also read the challenge posed by detective Rothmiller to the LAPD. A challenge LAPD has refused to answer.Since releasing this updated eBook, Detective Rothmiller has been interviewed dozens of times by the national media regarding current NSA domestic spying and the 2013 murderous rampage of former LAPD cop Christopher Dorner. In late 2013 Detective Rothmiller was interviewed for a major television documentary which will expose corruption and major crimes committed at the highest levels. The documentary is scheduled for release in 2016.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-opperman-report--1198501/support.

Matt and Dr. Eti Ben Simon begin their latest AMA by exploring somniloquy as fragmented noise within Stage 2 NREM sleep. They distinguish these vocalizations from REM Sleep Behavior Disorder, where the brain's paralysis mechanism fails. The pair also examines how Long Covid triggers chronic sleep fragmentation in half of all patients. This disruption is tethered to systemic inflammation and elevated C-reactive protein.The hosts find sparse evidence for CBD and CBN, noting a pattern of pharmacological tolerance, and observe that users require massive dose escalations to maintain a fading baseline of benefit. They go on to address the bedroom environment, emphasizing air quality and carbon dioxide risks, and, finally, reinforce consistency as the most potent tool for anchoring the human circadian rhythm.Please note that Matt is not a medical doctor, and none of the content in this podcast should be considered medical advice in any way, shape, or form, nor prescriptive in any way.One of this week's sponsors, AG1, is one that Matt relies upon for his foundational nutrition.

Donald Trump appears in deep denial about how widely hated his ICE raids have become. He let out a strange, rambling tirade to reporters about how the “silent majority” is still behind what ICE is doing, bizarrely citing approval of the raids among his own White House employees to make the case. In another rant, he lied uncontrollably about the protesters, about crime in Minneapolis, and more. Interestingly, this comes as a poll from none other than Fox News finds Trump deeply under water on immigration. It also finds that very large majorities of independents think ICE is being too aggressive. Incredibly, even majorities of rural whites and non-college whites—loyal base voter groups—think the same. We talked to pro-immigrant organizer Lia Parada, who represents groups losing lawful status under Trump. She recounts what she's seeing out there, shares details about surprising new signs of opposition to ICE, and explains how Democrats can seize this moment to effect a more durable shift in public opinion.  Looking for More from the DSR Network?

Challenging the long-held assumption that sleep is a dialogue the brain has exclusively with itself, Matt investigates the "gut-brain axis"—a sophisticated communication network linking our digestive tract to the central nervous system. He details how the 100 trillion microorganisms within our intestines act as a secondary control center for rest, operating via the vagus nerve to either bolster or sabotage our nocturnal recovery. By exploring the "vicious cycle" of dysbiosis, Matt explains how sleep deprivation compromises gut permeability, which in turn triggers systemic inflammation that further fragments our sleep.Matt dissects the molecular crosstalk within Parkinson's disease, where profound sleep disturbances often accelerate the progression of the condition. He explains how the collapse of butyrate—a short-chain fatty acid produced by bacterial fermentation—disrupts the brain's sleep architecture and weakens the restorative power of delta waves. By activating the BDNF-TrkB pathway, butyrate serves as a chemical signal that fosters neural repair and dampens neuroinflammation, succeeding in restoring sleep where traditional dopamine-replacement therapies often fail.Our host further explores the rhythmic nature of the microbiome, revealing that our gut bacteria possess their own internal clocks that must synchronize with the master pacemaker in the brain. He outlines how dietary fiber and prebiotics act as the primary fuel for these "sleep-promoting" microbes, while specific probiotic strains can lower cortisol and modulate GABAergic activity to quiet the mind for rest. Ultimately, Matt suggests that the future of sleep medicine lies in the gut, emphasizing that the quality of our rest is a biological collaboration between our neurons and the ancient ecosystem residing within us.Please note that Matt is not a medical doctor, and none of the content in this podcast should be considered medical advice in any way, shape, or form, nor prescriptive in any way.Podcast partner, David, is a revolutionary new protein bar developed with Dr. Peter Attia.
