The United States' entanglement in Iran and Israel's current conflict has a long, complicated history. Today we're looking back at how it led up to the U.S. strikes on Iran over the weekend. Two major factors: Iran's nuclear capabilities and economic sanctions, which the U.S. used to deter Iran's nuclear program and to incentivize Iran to sign on to the 2015 nuclear deal. Rose Kelanic, director of the Middle East Program at Defense Priorities, explains some of the history behind tensions between the U.S. and Iran, the role sanctions played in the 2015 Iran nuclear deal, and how the deal broke down. Later, one listener's take on the Trump administration's threats to the Pell Grant program. And, a gardening blogger was wrong about DIY plant food hacks.Here's everything we talked about today:"Strike Set Back Iran's Nuclear Program by Only a Few Months, U.S. Report Says" from The New York Times"Trump tries to maintain fragile ceasefire hours after he announced it" from Politico "Iran's Nuclear Dreams May Survive Even a Devastating American Blow" from The New York Times "History of US-Iran relations: From the 1953 regime change to Trump strikes" from Al Jazeera "Why Israel will resist any US-Iran nuclear deal" from Atlantic Council "Satellites show damage to Iran's nuclear program, but experts say it's not destroyed" from NPR Got a question for the hosts?

Sharp Pins is the solo project of 20-year-old Kai Slater, who also runs a zine called Hallogallo. Based in Chicago, he started the zine during the height of the coronavirus pandemic as a teenager, overwhelmed and frustrated with a life dominated by screens. So, both his music and zine are analog, made with tape recorders, photo copiers, and type writers. KEXP’s Dusty Henry talks with Slater about his music and the thriving DIY scene in Chicago. “The way that you remain young is by staying in touch with your creative side,” Slater says in the interview. “If I were to stop that, I would surely die,” he adds with a chuckle. Sharp Pins’s album Radio DDR came out March, 21 2025 on Perennial Records.

Host Joseph and guest (outfitter Tate Bradfield) detail why each item is important, along with how to pick the right brand and model for your specific needs.

The principal concern addressed in this podcast episode is the paramount issue that detracts from the joy of RVers, which is a lack of preparedness and maintenance. This deficiency often manifests itself in various forms, including neglect of essential repairs and insufficient planning, ultimately leading to frustrating experiences that overshadow the anticipated pleasure of RV travel. We delve into practical solutions, offering insights from the RV community that highlight effective DIY fixes for common issues encountered on the road. Additionally, we explore the significance of being well-equipped and knowledgeable about one's RV to prevent minor inconveniences from escalating into major disruptions. Lastly, we provide a glimpse into upcoming adventures at Olympic National Park and the historical remnants of Bordeaux, Washington, emphasizing the importance of awareness and organization in enhancing the RV experience.The episode also ventures into the contemplative realm of historical RV destinations, specifically focusing on Bordeaux, Washington, a town that once thrived but has since succumbed to the passage of time. Through a narrative rich in historical context, I recount the rise and fall of Bordeaux, exploring its origins as a bustling logging community and its subsequent decline as resources dwindled. This poignant exploration serves as a reminder of the transient nature of human endeavors and the inevitability of change. The discussion culminates in a reflection on the importance of preparedness not only in the context of RV maintenance but also in the broader scope of travel and exploration. I encourage listeners to embrace the lessons of history, to remain adaptable in the face of unforeseen circumstances, and to cultivate a spirit of resilience that will enrich their journeys in the RV lifestyle. Together, we aspire to foster a deeper appreciation for both the joys and challenges inherent in RV travel.TakeawaysThe primary factor diminishing the joy of RVing is a lack of preparedness, which leads to unexpected issues.Real DIY fixes shared by the RV community can be invaluable for addressing common RV problems effectively.Understanding the unique nature of RV toilets is essential to avoid flooding incidents and ensure proper usage.Maintaining your RV and being proactive about repairs minimizes the chances of surprises and enhances your travel experience.Planning ahead for fuel stops and campsite availability is crucial for a smooth RV journey, preventing unnecessary frustration.Developing DIY skills for basic maintenance and repairs can empower RV owners and enhance their confidence while traveling.Wholesale Warranties - RV Extended WarrantiesYouTube Channel

In the latest episode of Valley Today, hosted by Janet Michael, the focus was on Waterwise Gardening, featuring an in-depth discussion with Joanne Royalty, a Program Associate from the Frederick County Extension Office and a Northern Shenandoah Valley Master Gardener. Though typically known for her expertise on the Spotted Lantern Fly, Joanne provided invaluable tips on gardening during drought conditions and how homeowners can make a difference by conserving water. Joanne highlighted the importance of preparing for inevitable droughts by adopting waterwise gardening practices. Janet and Joanne discussed various methods, such as using rain barrels, making responsible irrigation choices, and reusing household water. Joanne emphasized the importance of avoiding midday watering to prevent water evaporation and ensuring healthy plant growth. The conversation shifted towards practical DIY solutions and community resources available for gardeners. Joanne encouraged listeners to consider making their own rain barrels using common household items and pointed out that local Extension offices often provide free or discounted rain barrels. She also stressed the significance of mindful water usage and the benefits of mulching to retain soil moisture. The topic of conserving natural ecosystems introduced the Dark Skies movement, aiming to reduce light pollution that affects nocturnal wildlife like fireflies. Joanne provided insights into how homeowners can adjust their outdoor lighting to support this initiative. She explained that unnecessary bright lights disrupt the activities of beneficial insects and animals operating at night. Using softer, targeted lighting solutions can mitigate this issue. Janet and Joanne delved into the role of Master Gardeners. Joanne elaborated on how these passionate plant enthusiasts volunteer to provide research-based horticultural advice to the community. She recounted her recent experience at the Master Gardener College, where attendees bolstered their knowledge to pass on to local gardeners. Joanne stressed that Master Gardeners are a valuable resource for answering a wide range of gardening questions. The session wrapped up by reminding listeners that Master Gardeners are accessible for advice and willing to assist in various horticultural inquiries, including those related to water conservation and sustainable gardening practices. Those interested in learning more or seeking assistance were encouraged to visit the Northern Shenandoah Valley Master Gardener Association website or their local Extension office. In summary, the conversation provided a comprehensive guide to waterwise gardening, emphasizing preparation, conservation, and community resources, all while highlighting the importance of supporting our natural ecosystems through informed and practical gardening practices.

What if the hardest part of investing isn't building a portfolio—but sticking to it? In this AMA edition of the Rational Reminder podcast, Ben Felix and Dan Bortolotti tackle listener questions ranging from sustainable retirement withdrawals to the dangers of structured products, with plenty of philosophical insights on risk, behavior, and financial planning. The episode opens with a deep dive into the 4% rule, exploring how time horizon, asset allocation, and global data can shift the definition of “safe.” They also explore the behavioral challenges of the “boring middle” of investing and why consistency may be the greatest alpha. Other standout segments include a sharp critique of bank-sold structured notes, an evidence-based takedown of trend following, and a fascinating discussion on the long-term impact of demographic shifts and index investing. Throughout, Ben and Dan blend technical insight with practical wisdom and academic research, delivering a thoughtful and entertaining conversation for both DIY investors and those working with advisors. Key Points From This Episode: (0:01:07) What the latest data says about safe withdrawal rates, especially for early retirees with 100% equity exposure. (0:08:45) How variable vs. fixed withdrawals affect outcomes—and the trade-offs retirees must consider. (0:17:01) The behavioral risks of the “boring middle” and how automation or advice helps investors stay disciplined. (0:26:13) Reflections on market crashes—why hindsight downplays the emotional reality of volatility. (0:33:27) Commission conflicts: Why bank advisors push structured notes and the incentives behind them. (0:44:22) Education vs. malice: Are bad financial advisors untrained, conflicted, or both? (0:49:08) Are structured notes ever justified? (Spoiler: very rarely.) (0:56:44) Trend following: Legitimate strategy or fancy market timing? Examining the live track records. (1:02:52) Diversifying your life like a portfolio: Applying the PERMA model to personal growth. (1:10:18) The one use of leverage that actually makes sense—and why most others don't. (1:14:20) Will aging demographics crash ETF markets? What the data and theory suggest. (1:19:02) Why even complex macro trends don't justify deviating from a simple, low-cost investment plan.

AI is rewriting the rules of business—faster than most people realize. In this talk I had at the YPO Global Marketing Summit, I break down how AI is enabling leaner teams to drive real revenue, shift business models, and operate at scale. I share frameworks for implementation, how SEO is evolving into search everywhere, and how we're using AI for recruiting, content creation, and cost efficiency. From building community to deploying autonomous workflows, this is about staying relevant—and ahead—as the landscape keeps changing.

Deep Color (the exhibition) opened at Halsey McKay Gallery on May 24 and will be on view through June 30th, 2025. The exhibit features drawing, painting, sculpture, writing, editioned prints, and photography by over 60 Deep Color alumni artists. In this special episode, artist and HMG founder/owner, Ryan Wallace, talks with artist and Deep Color host Joseph Hart about how the show blossomed from idea to reality, the DIY nature of producing art exhibitions, the range and cohesiveness of the works on view, being surprised by a handful of artworks during installation, the unscientific curatorial process behind Deep Color, wearing shorts on airplanes, and stamina and horizon lines for Deep Color as a project.Listeners are encouraged to check out the exhibit in-person or online, then revisit the episode archive for that extra magic and context, and as a method for learning about and connecting with the artworks on view.“I'm incredibly appreciative of these artists for recording conversations with me for Deep Color and for being part of this exhibition. They've let us behind the curtain and into their studios. They've told us stories about the formative experiences that helped shape their artwork and outlook. They've offered us guidance, and different models, for how to approach and think about being an artist. Through these acts of generosity, and through their artwork, these artists are contributing to culture in a way that can fuel imagination, provide light, and soften the complicated aspects of our daily lives. This is a profound gesture that we should all salute and support.” -Joseph HartView the Deep Color exhibition HERE.Support Deep Color HERE
