It's Lindsay Clancy jury deliberation day…again. Is this a tipping point for women in America? Let's take a look at the facts. A debate sprang up on X about the hiring of foreign workers. Some people say that foreign workers who are more qualified should be getting jobs in America, while others are saying Americans should prioritize American citizens. Is it a legitimate argument? Or just an attempt to hire workers at lower wages? After midnight shenanigans with former President of Venezuela Nicolas Maduro have led to the biggest oil deal in world history. The US gets 65 billion barrels while Venezuela doesn't get another visit from Secretary of War Pete Hegseth. It's a win-win. There's no way anyone could be mad about it.

Is Romantasy ruining reality? Allie unpacks the ACOTAR phenomenon, highlighting how the author of the series, Sarah J. Maas, is proud of the smut she writes, but she's even prouder that readers are leaving their boyfriends and husbands thanks to her work. While women should always leave an abusive partner, Allie believes ACOTAR is setting an unrealistic standard of romance for women that is causing them to throw away good relationships and self-improvement. Meanwhile, the Bible showcases far better examples of romance and strong, female protagonists than spicy novellas from BookTok. Allie is also joined by Share the Arrows guest speaker Costi Hinn, who discusses the similarities between Kathryn Krick and his uncle Benny Hinn and the broader dangers of the charismatic movement.

#1,002: Aerin Lauder rarely sits down for conversations like this. As the granddaughter of legendary beauty entrepreneur Estée Lauder, Aerin grew up with a front-row seat to one of the most iconic families and businesses in American beauty — learning firsthand about taste, ambition, family, and what it takes to build something that lasts. Today, Aerin has created a legacy of her own as the founder of AERIN, bringing her distinctive point of view to beauty, fragrance, fashion, interiors, and entertaining. In this episode, Aerin takes us inside the world that shaped her. She shares what Estée was really like as a grandmother, the lessons she taught Aerin about work ethic, beauty, business, and relationships, and how those lessons continue to influence the way Aerin lives and works today. We also get into Aerin's philosophy on living beautifully — how she creates a warm and personal home, her rules for entertaining, thoughtful details that can transform a dinner or gathering, the beauty and home essentials she always keeps around, and why great taste isn't about perfection. Aerin also opens up about building AERIN while carrying one of the most recognizable names in beauty, finding her own identity within an extraordinary family legacy, motherhood and raising two sons, family traditions, balancing ambition with a full personal life, and what she's learned about creating a life that feels both elevated and genuinely lived-in. This is a rare and personal conversation about legacy, taste, family, ambition, and the timeless art of living well.   For Detailed Show Notes visit TheBossticks.com   To connect with Aerin Lauder click HERE   To connect with Lauryn Bosstick click HERE   To connect with Michael Bosstick click HERE   Read More on The Skinny Confidential HERE   Head to our ShopMy page HERE and LTK page HERE to find all of the products mentioned in each episode.   Get your tickets now for Dear Media by Day at http://dearmedia.com/events.   This episode is sponsored by Chilipad by Sleepme Visit http://sleep.me/skinny to get your Chilipad and save up to $255 off a new Chilipad2.0 with code skinny.   This episode is sponsored by Caraway Visit http://Carawayhome.com/skinnypod10 to take an additional 10% off your next purchase.   This episode is sponsored by Invivyd Inc.  Visit http://AntibodiesforAnyBody.com and take the wellness assessment to learn more about helping to support your immune health.   This episode is sponsored by Boll & Branch Get 15% off your first order plus free shipping at http://BollAndBranch.com/skinny with code skinny.   This episode is sponsored by WACOAL Visit WACOAL.com and use code SKINNY at checkout for 10% off your first purchase.

Does everyone need their own lawnmower?For a lot of people, living with your spouse and kids in a standalone house with a white picket fence is, more or less, the American dream. But people aren't as likely to get married and have kids as they used to – and buying a house is more unattainable than ever. But even for those who don't share this particular American dream, alternatives -- like living alone or with roommates you don't really talk to -- can sometimes feel alienating, or like a last resort. But the proponents of communal living say things can be different. Communal living can look like co-living – where people choose to live with others in one house or building – or co-housing – which is a community built around a group of houses. They are intentional communities where people build shared lives together – and they don't have to be blood-related or romantically involved. All Things Considered producer Jordan-Marie Smith wanted to know – what might be driving people to live communally? And can communal living be seen as a viable, first choice adult living situation?Jordan-Marie shares her reporting with Brittany on what she found out.For more episodes on culture and how we build our lives, check out:To be or not to be a parentThe safety and power of knowing your neighborsHow to survive a millennial midlife crisisSupport public media with NPR+ and enjoy perks for over 25 podcasts like this one.

The American healthcare and financial systems can feel deeply broken, but you are not powerless. With healthcare costs skyrocketing and deductibles growing larger every year, many people feel trapped when facing a medical procedure. Clark shares an instructive real-world story from The Washington Post, explaining how price transparency (and lack thereof) impacts your wallet and why price-shopping non-emergency medical procedures is essential for protecting your savings. Clark also addresses the growing wave of financial stress facing millions of households now. As inflation strains budgets and credit card default rates rise, debt collectors are taking consumers to court in record numbers. If you or a loved one are dealing with aggressive debt collectors, Clark walks through your legal rights, how to stop harassing calls, and why getting every agreement in writing is non-negotiable. Plus, Christa shares your #AskClark questions and Clark gives his take. All this and more on the August 31, 2026, episode of The Clark Howard Show. Submit your questions: Ask Clark.

Air Date: 8/29/2026 Today we examine what happens when the state wants to decide whether a person reproduces. A century ago, American courts sanctioned the forced sterilization of women deemed unfit to reproduce. 60 years ago, a communist dictator ran a pronatalist experiment with disastrous results. Now, abortion access is collapsing and a new pronatalist movement is rising to wreak havoc. Full Show Notes Transcript Be part of the show!

For all of American history, we have been obsessed with the idea that what you eat is about more than just the purity of the body, it's about a kind of metaphorical purity as well. For this episode, journalist Zoe Rom, co-host of the podcast Your Diet Sucks takes us through our strange history of clean living movements focusing on quacky 19th century characters and their bizarre and sometimes dangerous ideas about health, as well as the outrageous methods they used on their adherents, men like Sylvester Graham, inventor of Graham crackers, and Dr. John Harvey Kellogg, inventor of Corn Flakes. We discuss the biblical origins of clean living movements, what health food purity has to do with Eugenics, and how these ideas have followed us through the many stages of this nation's history, manifesting again in the culture and politics of today.

During the height of Roy Cohn's friendship with Donald Trump, according to the historian Kai Bird, “they were on the phone with each other a dozen times a day.” Bird's new book, “American Scoundrel,” details Cohn's profound influence on Trump—whom he met as a young real-estate heir in the nineteen-seventies—and how Cohn is “haunting” politics in our time. “I had written about Roy Cohn in [previous biographies] as this nefarious, minor, awful figure who was disruptive and divisive and unethical. And I suddenly realized that the establishment that I'd been writing about for forty years is gone. Their values and culture, the politics, the bipartisanship . . . that's all gone,” he tells David Remnick. “Roy Cohn explains something about the dark side of America that I just didn't understand.” They discuss Cohn's early career as a prosecutor and his role as the “mastermind” of the McCarthy purges; his service as a lawyer and fixer for Mafia members, politicians, and celebrities; and an allegation of being involved in sex trafficking. Further reading and listening:  “How Roy Cohn Taught Donald Trump Everything,” by Kai Bird and Susan Goldmark “The Mobster Cosplay of Donald Trump,” by David Remnick “Adapting Oppenheimer's Life Story to Film, with Biographer Kai Bird,” an episode of The New Yorker Radio Hour “Roy Cohn and the Making of a Winner-Take-All America,” by Naomi Fry The Political Scene draws on the reporting and analysis found in The New Yorker for lively conversations about the big questions in American politics.

This episode starts with a celebration of Dolly Parton's extraordinary generosity and cultural impact, then moves into a serious theological conversation about hypocrisy, leadership, and what makes a church spiritually healthy or toxic. Mike, Suzie, and Tim connect Jesus' warnings in Matthew 23 and Luke 12 to modern church culture, power, and the temptation to perform righteousness rather than live it.Why was Dolly Parton so universally loved, from the left to the right?

Plus: The Last Us Troops Leave Iraq. “Who Talks Like That?” The Four-Star General on Trump's Greenland Threats, Davos Humiliation, and ICE Moving Like It's Mosul.  General Barry McCaffrey has seen more war and more national security decision-making than almost anyone alive. A retired four-star, four combat tours, three Purple Hearts, veteran of the National Security Council under three administrations. In this replay, he sits down with Paul Rieckhoff for a no-BS conversation about a moment most Americans still haven't fully absorbed: the U.S. is no longer trusted by its closest allies, our institutions have been hollowed out, and the most trusted institution in American life — the armed forces — is being dragged into domestic politics in ways that should alarm every citizen, regardless of party. McCaffrey walks through the politicization of the military and federal law enforcement, ICE units operating like infantry in Los Angeles, the 11th Airborne on standby for Minneapolis, and what the Insurrection Act would actually mean if Trump pulls that lever. He unpacks Davos, Greenland, the humiliation of our closest allies, and why "NATO is dead" is not hyperbole. He reflects on the quiet exit of the last U.S. troops from Iraq, the political failures that defined the forever wars, and the 60,000 Americans killed and wounded in the war on terror. This is the kind of intelligence-grade analysis independents are starving for — grounded in decades of service, delivered straight. -WATCH full video of this episode here. -Millions of American veterans are being locked out of primary elections in the country they served.

In 1976, American toy designer Jim Swearingen was working at Kenner, a mid-sized company in the American Midwest.When a script for a new film called Star Wars landed on his desk, Jim was intrigued. Larger toy companies had already passed on the chance to make the figures."It was difficult from the point of view that it was a movie, could be in and out of theater in weeks, maybe months," he said. "It was science fiction, and toy buyers at that time had been turned off to science fiction because they still had a lot of Star Trek on the shelf. "And it was opening in May, which is completely counter to the toy business. We sold toys from September to December."Jim tells Rowan Bridge how he persuaded his boss to take a chance on Star Wars, what it was like seeing the film for the first time, and about the race to get the toys into the shops.Witness History is a short BBC World Service podcast about history that takes you inside big moments from the past through first-hand testimony and archive.

The mayor of Olive Branch, Mississippi is not a very big Dolly Parton fan. Mayor Ken Adams is making national headlines after he refused to lower the American flag to honor the Queen of Country Music. Mayor Adams says that there’s no doubt Dolly brought joy to millions but he says to lower the red, white and blue would diminish the gesture’s significance. The mayor says the flag should only be lowered to honor military heroes, first responders and presidents. The reaction has been somewhat insane. The New York Post picked up on the story – and thousands of people are commenting on social media. Most overwhelmingly object to the mayor’s decision. President Trump and Mississippi Gov. Tate Reeves ordered that US and state flags be flown at half-staff for one week to honor Dolly. But under Home Rule, Mississippi allows cities the right to control their own internal affairs – which is why Mayor Adams thumbed his nose at President Trump and Gov. Reeves. Perhaps the mayor could rethink his bone-headed decision – and perhaps lower Old Glory. You know – extend an olive branch.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This is a special joint episode of The Chauncey DeVega Show and The Truth Report. Steve Cash is Executive Director of The Steady State, a nonprofit advocacy organization whose members are former senior national security officials. He previously served as Senior Advisor to the Under Secretary for Intelligence & Analysis at the Department of Homeland Security and as Chief of Staff to the Director of Intelligence at the Department of Energy. Cash was deeply involved in drafting much of the legislation that followed the 9/11 attacks, including the USA PATRIOT Act, the Department of Homeland Security Act, and the Intelligence Reform and Terrorism Prevention Act, which created the position of Director of National Intelligence. He also served as an intelligence officer with the CIA. Cash analyzes Trump's recent "election security" speech to the nation and how its allegation that hostile foreign actors stole the 2020 presidential election for Democrats, and other false claims fit into the Big Lie strategy to rig upcoming elections and undermine American democracy. Steve Cash also offers advice about courage and personal responsibility to pro-democracy Americans and others who have already been — or may soon be — targeted by the Trump administration and placed on enemies lists because they have protested or exercised other constitutionally protected rights, including freedom of speech.

James Talarico vs. Ken Paxton. The 2026 Texas Senate race decides whether Texas sends its first Democrat to Washington since 1988, and if this seat flips, the Senate goes with it. This Ken Paxton interview is the roadmap. The Texas Attorney General breaks open his ActBlue investigation, reacts to the Talarico clips that have to be seen to be believed, and tells the full story of the surrogate baby he stepped in to save. ▶ THE ACTBLUE INVESTIGATION Paxton's office donated to ActBlue under fake names with untraceable payment methods. It worked. The door for foreign money into American elections is standing wide open, his opponent pulled $20 million through that exact platform in three months, and the judge who shut the case down sits 1,800 miles from Texas. You watched the ActBlue CEO take the Fifth 22 times. This is the man who lit that fuse, and he says the abuse is still happening right now. ▶ THE SURROGATE BABY CASE A surrogate mother ran to Texas with days left in the pregnancy. The couple paying her wanted it ended, even with a nearly 100 percent surgical success rate waiting on the other side. Paxton reached back through 80 years of case law to stop them. What happened in the seven days after that baby was born is the part you will not see coming. ▶ THE TALARICO TAPES The two James Talarico clips my producers begged me to put in front of Paxton on camera. A vegan campaign in the biggest barbecue state in America. A murder jury he suggested was too white to deliver justice. Watch Paxton's reaction to the second one. Talarico is 37 years old. If he takes this seat, Texas lives with what he actually believes for decades, so the only question that matters is which version of this man is real. ▶ THE MAHA FILES Paxton's battles over transparency in what you eat and wear: the chemicals being sprayed on the organic produce at your grocery store, the seed oils hiding in your avocado oil, the dyes in your kids' cereal, and the forever chemicals Lululemon put in leggings it advertised as healthy. Registration closes end of September. Election day is November 3rd. Watch this before you decide anything.#JamesTalarico #KenPaxton #TexasSenate

Brad sits down with journalist Sarah Stankorb to discuss her new book, Damned If She Does: Why Women Quit Church and What It Means for the Future of Religion, out September 15th. They dig into why women — long the backbone of American congregations — are leaving in unprecedented numbers, from Gen Z women outpacing their male peers to the erosion of the gender gap among millennials. The conversation covers the specific fractures driving women out: the Catholic sex abuse crisis and its parallels in evangelical spaces, the racial reckoning of 2020 and churches' silence in its wake, and the deep discomfort many feel over homophobia and transphobia within their communities. They also explore what comes after leaving — the difficulty of trusting institutions again, the patchwork spiritualities (astrology, women's gyms, tarot) many turn to instead, and the striking demographic differences between atheists, agnostics, and the "nothing in particulars." The episode closes with a wide-ranging discussion of institutional trust, political imagination, and whether the energy behind candidates like Zohran Mamdani is connected to this same generational exodus from organized religion.

Michael Cohen challenges mainstream political narratives while defending Donald Trump's influence, policies, and movement. Joined by K.T.

As social media influencers increasingly displace traditional media as primary sources for political commentary, concerns are growing over covert foreign propaganda and dark money fueling online discourse. In response, bipartisan momentum is building behind new legislation aimed at closing foreign disclosure loopholes and requiring online personalities to disclose financial ties to foreign governments.Jessica Rosenthal spoke with Congresswoman Anna Paulina Luna (R-FL) about her bipartisan Foreign Propaganda Disclosure Act. They discussed how foreign entities and bot networks leverage paid influencers to manipulate digital algorithms and steer American political debates, as well as the enforcement mechanisms needed to hold violators accountable through the Department of Justice.Rep. Luna shares her perspective on updating the Foreign Agents Registration Act (FARA) for the digital age, addressing First Amendment concerns, and why she believes transparency is critical to protecting national security and American voters.We often have to cut interviews short during the week, but we thought you might like to hear this one in full. Today on the Fox News Rundown Extra, we share our complete conversation with Representative Anna Paulina Luna as she dives deeper into foreign influence in the creator economy, legislative battles in Capitol Hill, and the state of American politics.

Donald Trump's decision to launch military action against Iran raises a fundamental question: what happens when presidential war-making bypasses the constitutional checks designed to restrain it? Since joint U.S.-Israeli strikes began on February 28, 2026, 18 American service members have been killed and hundreds more wounded. This illegal war is a reminder that constitutional checks, professional statecraft, and rigorously vetted intelligence are not merely bureaucratic obstacles. They are safeguards designed to prevent catastrophic miscalculations, protect American lives, and preserve stability in an increasingly dangerous world.

Josh Martens sits down with Brian Lambert, a Navy veteran and Libertarian candidate for Florida's 14th Congressional District, to break down his campaign and political philosophy. Lambert explains why he left the Republican Party, why his campaign centers on "your money, your freedom, your vote," and how he approaches federal spending, veterans' care, healthcare, war, surveillance, small business, and taxes. They dig into some of the biggest libertarian fights in American politics: • Cutting federal spending and returning education to local control • Protecting veterans while questioning America's military interventions • Getting government and insurance bureaucracies out of healthcare decisions • Ending warrantless mass surveillance and pushing back on Flock cameras Plus, Lambert explains why constitutional limits should come before political convenience and why reducing the IRS could give Americans more financial freedom.
