Shawn Bentler had money trouble. He wanted money desperately, but didn't want to work for it. In fact, Shawn was so bad at showing up for work that he got fired from the family business. He later got fired from another job when he told his boss that he was overwhelmed by the sudden passing of his father. (His dad was very much alive.) But at some point, Shawn came up with an idea. If his family was dead, he'd inherit a lot of money.  When Christy Mack and Jon Koppenhaver, a.k.a. “War Machine” met on a photo shoot for Hustler Magazine, Christy was indifferent. She wasn't looking for a boyfriend. She valued her independence. But she and Jon got to talking, and she was charmed. She'd never had someone shower her with so much love and attention before. Within a few weeks, they began dating. A few months later, the violence began. And now for a note about our process. For each episode, Kristin reads a bunch of articles, then spits them back out in her very limited vocabulary. Brandi copies and pastes from the best sources on the web. And sometimes Wikipedia. (No shade, Wikipedia. We love you.) We owe a huge debt of gratitude to the real experts who covered these cases. In this episode, Kristin pulled from: “The Case of Jon Koppenhaver,” JCS - Criminal Psychology “The tragic love story of Christy Mack and MMA fighter War Machine,” by Jane McManus for espn.com Christy Mack's twitter account “Cage-fighter War Machine blames anti-male society for his domestic violence in suicide note,” by Scott Kauffman for rawstory.com “Ex-fighter War Machine gets judge to postpone trial,” by Ken Ritter for the Associated Press “War Machine sentenced to life for brutal assault of ex: Inside the MMA star's fall,” by Mike Bohn for Rolling Stone “Christy Mack vs. War Machine: The whole ugly case, explained,” by Meera Jagannathan for the Daily News “Porn star Christy Mack's alleged ‘rape fantasy' new focal point of War Machine abuse trial,” by Jessa Schroeder for the Daily News “War Machine blows ‘offensive' kiss after arguing that porn star ex cant' claim rape because of her job as sex worker,” the Daily News “MMA Fighter ‘War Machine' arrested in Simi Valley, was sought in Las Vegas beating of ex-girlfriend,” by Melissa Palmer and Mary Beth McDade for KTLA In this episode, Brandi pulled from: “Shawn Bentler” podcast episode, This Is Monsters “Shawn Michael Bentler” murderpedia.org “Man charged in killing described as unreliable” Associated Press “Trial Opens for Man accused of Killing his 3 Sister, Parents in Iowa” Associated Press “Judge to visit home where man is accused of killing his family” by Amy Lorentzen, Associated Press “Emotional day for Bentler family” Associated Press “Remembering the Bentlers” by Melissa Shriver, KHQA News “Killer's Children Get Millions” KTVO News “State v.

In the interview, Mike talks with Jane McManus about the conclusions of her poll on why Americans have been spending less time watching sports in 2020. What she found has a lot to do with not just the pandemic and aging viewers, but identity politics, too. In their conversation, McManus underscores that the health of a community is oftentimes based on playing games, and that sports are the ultimate reflection of a healthy democracy. She also discusses why sports leagues choosing to avoid getting involved in disseminating a public health message was contrary to putting community and teamwork first. McManus is director of Marist College’s Center for Sports Communication, a columnist for Deadspin sports and an ESPN contributor. In the spiel, Joe Rogan doesn’t know what he’s talking about.

This week we speak to Jane McManus, New York Daily News’ sports columnist and Director of the Center for Sports Communication at Marist College. We talk about a new survey from Marist College on recent sports viewership. We dive into theories on why there has been a drop in sports viewers since the pandemic as well as the broader American sports’ response to the virus and why it’s been found to be lacking.  We also have “Choice Words” about the NBA’s Bubble, the effectiveness of it, as well as its impact on protest. In addition, we have “Just Stand Up” and “Just Sit Down” awards to the legendary John Carlos and Tommie Smith on the anniversary of their iconic protest at the 1968 Olympic games in Mexico and the Tennessee Titans for their irresponsible behavior in the wake of large scale coronavirus diagnoses on the team. All this and more on this week’s show!

On this week’s episode of Poll Hub, we’re discussing the results of our latest national NPR/PBS NewsHour/Marist Poll. With less than three weeks until Election Day, where does the presidential contest stand? Can anything change its trajectory? Do Americans consider the Trump Presidency to be a success or failure? We break it down. And, it’s time for a change of pace! Jane McManus, Director of the Center for Sports Communication at Marist College, joins the team to discuss our new joint venture. The topic: the declining viewership of live sports broadcasts. Spoiler alert: there are different reasons for different demographics. And, don’t forget to check out our series of free, short online courses. It’s called The Marist Poll Academy. About Poll Hub Poll Hub goes behind the science to explain how polling works, what polls really show, and what the numbers really mean. Poll Hub is produced by the Marist College Institute for Public Opinion, home of America’s leading independent college public opinion poll, The Marist Poll. Lee Miringoff (Director of The Marist College Institute for Public Opinion), Barbara Carvalho (Director of the Marist Poll), and Jay DeDapper (Director of Innovation at the Marist Poll) dig deep to give you a look at the inner workings of polls and what they tell us about our world, our country, and ourselves.

This week, In the Past Lane explores the fascinating and little-known story of an American colony that developed on a small island off Cuba following the Spanish American War of 1898.  The Isle of Pines attracted some 2,000 American settlers in the early 20th century. Many of them viewed the island in the same way earlier generations of Americans saw the trans-Mississippi west -- as a place brimming with opportunity for adventure, self-reinvention, and economic advancement.  At the heart of their ambitions was the hope that the United States would annex the island.  To tell us all about this colony and its rise, transformation, and fall in the 20th century, I speak with historian Michael Neagle about his new book, America's Forgotten Colony: Cuba's Isle of Pines (Cambridge University Press, 2016).
