It was only in his late twenties that America's favorite brainiac began to seriously embrace his love of trivia. Now he holds the “Greatest of All Time” title on Jeopardy! Steve Levitt digs into how he trained for the show, what it means to have a "geographic memory," and why we lie to our children. This episode originally aired on October 2nd, 2020.

A program aiming to keep Montana's ambulance services financially afloat is in jeopardy, as federal health officials say the state can't implement the program. Rural ambulance providers could close if it fails.

Imagination, storytelling, and the human voice are at the heart of this conversation I shared with voice actor and coach Linda Bearman. We talked about her journey from early acting to decades in voiceover, why audio drama is finding new life, and what it really takes to build a career in a changing industry shaped by home studios and AI. Linda offered honest insight into training, discipline, and the business side of voice work, along with a clear reminder that technology cannot replace lived experience, emotional truth, or imagination. More than anything, this episode is about staying human, staying kind, and following the passion that brings stories to life, no matter how fast the world changes. Highlights: 00:10 – Hear why sounding natural and emotionally present matters more than performance tricks in voice acting. 02:52 – Learn why audio drama is resurging and what today's audiences are craving from storytelling again. 10:48 – Understand how voiceover evolved into a true craft and why it demands respect, discipline, and training. 20:17 – Get a clear look at how AI has already changed the voiceover industry and where human voices still hold the edge. 30:18 – Discover why imagination is a muscle that must be trained to bring stories to life through audio alone. 55:22 – Learn why preserving classic radio techniques is essential to developing the next generation of voice actors. About the Guest: Linda Bearman has amassed decades of experience in the performing arts beginning as a child actress and continuing into adulthood. Her career was enriched by studies and performances in the US and abroad working with legendary actors from prestigious theatre's including; The Arena Stage (Washington D.C.), The Actors Studio (NYC), The National Theatre of Great Britain and The Old Vic (UK). After obtaining her degree in Acting, Linda continued performing on stage and screen until moving to Los Angeles where she transitioned into TV production working for King World Productions on shows; The Oprah Winfrey Show, Jeopardy! and Wheel of Fortune. Later, while working for Landmark Productions she was offered a position at the esteemed commercial talent agency, SBV,Inc (Sutton, Barth & Vennari). Becoming a VO agent was a pivotal point in Linda's career as it was there that Linda discovered her passion for voiceover, an art form that perfectly aligned with her acting background and business acumen.  Following seven years at SBV, she relocated to Utah and worked in the casting department of Leucadia Film Corp. while also voicing regional radio and TV commercials. Recognizing the need for a professional full service talent agency in Salt Lake City, she established, co-owned and operated the successful TMG,Inc. (Talent Management Group) in its first decade of business. Her enthusiasm for developing talent led her to become a full-time VO coach, mentoring actors in performance techniques, branding, marketing, and demo production of which several earned industry recognitions. She stays up to date with the latest industry developments and actively shares it with her clients. Linda is honored to serve as a judge for the annual international SOVAS Arts Awards (Society of Voice Arts and Sciences) and delights in performing live recreations of radio shows from the "Golden Age" with REPS (Radio Enthusiasts of Puget Sound) in Seattle, WA each year.  Ways to connect with Linda**:** LinkedIn-Linda Bearman About the Host: Michael Hingson is a New York Times best-selling author, international lecturer, and Chief Vision Officer for accessiBe.

Then she invites Detroit into the Boggs Center's 30-year legacy with First Fridays (1–4 PM), where community safety history meets Detroit's sonic future: DJs create mixes responding to texts from the exhibit, so visitors feel “the textures of liberation” while learning the names, movements, and traditions that built us.

Thaddeus and Chauncey recap a mostly thrilling Wild Card Weekend, including an epic Packers choke job, a Josh Allen comeback, an Eagles letdown, the Patriots slog, and a late Texans beatdown. They also breakdown an unsettlingly close Rams game and why the Rams nearly blew it. Then they turn their attention to the Divisional round and Chauncey tries to guess more than one game right. Later,  they discuss John Harbaugh going to the Giants (for now), Mike Tomlin going to TV, and all the various staff shuffles going on in the league. The guys celebrate Kyle Tucker going to the Dodgers and how the looming strike created his unique contract.

Tom Cock and Don McDonald kick off 2026 with a sharp, skeptical look at portfolio simplicity—what it really means, what it doesn't, and why promises like “no sacrifice in returns” should always raise an eyebrow. Using a Morningstar article as a springboard, they dig into active vs. index funds, one-fund and target-date strategies, and the behavioral traps that complexity creates. Listener calls drive deeper discussions around Avantis funds (AVGE vs. AVGV), value tilts, international exposure, Fidelity's zero-fee funds, and when simplicity actually beats sophistication. Along the way: holiday viruses, Jeopardy ETF fails, Tesla-as-a-value-stock arguments (sort of), and a reminder that knowing yourself as an investor matters more than chasing the “perfect” allocation. 0:04 Holiday hangover, fake presence, and welcoming 2026 1:27 Simplicity in investing and why complexity isn't intelligence 1:44 Morningstar's “simplify your portfolio” claim—skepticism engaged 3:01 Active funds vs. index funds (and Morningstar's awkward contradiction) 3:56 One-fund vs. multi-fund portfolios and why rebalancing is hard 5:24 Target-date funds as delegation for real humans 7:32 Hodgepodge-itis vs. fewer funds, fewer mistakes 8:52 Listener call: Roth IRA for an 8-year-old and AVGE vs. AVGV 12:20 Value tilt, international exposure, and long time horizons 13:44 AVGE vs. AVGV performance—why short-term results don't settle debates 16:57 VT compared to Avantis—diversification without tilts 17:32 Fidelity Zero funds—what's free and what's the catch 20:00 Jason from Sammamish: value, growth, Tesla, and confidence 23:36 SPY vs. SPYM and when cheap is just cheap 25:46 Listener call: escaping a Fidelity managed large-cap portfolio 29:58 What to say when an advisor tries to keep your money 31:24 Jeopardy contestants miss “ETF” (yes, really) 33:46 AVGE vs. VT—tilts, belief systems, and picking your poison Learn more about your ad choices.

The category is 1990s SNL and the answer is "this comedian was an SNL mainstay, a huge movie star, and an internet comedy pioneer -- plus he played a mean cowbell." Of course the question is "Who is Will Ferrell" -- this week's legend. Thank goodness that Will Ferrell was bored at the prospect of being a sportscaster and hooked up with the Groundlings improv troupe. When Lorne Michaels came looking for players to rebuild the SNL cast back in the late 1980s, Will was ready. Through great character work, sharp impersonations, and just plain silliness Will became one of the most beloved cast members in SNL history and he rode that popularity to a decade of comedy movie hits. Along the way he helped found Funny or Die, a pioneering comedy website. No word if he ever one-upped Sean Connery during a round of Celebrity Jeopardy. As always find extra clips below and thanks for sharing our shows! Want more Will Ferrell? Can't do a Will Ferrell episode without his most famous SNL sketch -- grab your cowbell and play along. https://youtu.be/cVsQLlk-T0s?si=6PcKygaU9TXf2FGg On SNL when the Jeopardy! theme music played you knew it was time for Celebrity Jeopardy -- and a battle of words was sure to ensue between Will's Alex Trebek and Darrell Hammond's Sean Connery (among others). https://youtu.be/bEghu90QJH4?si=6OsaWEEYzeCfi4RB Will and his writing partner Adam McKay were co-founders of Funny or Die, a website where viewers can vote for their favorite clips. This clip, featuring Will bickering with a 2 year old landlord was an early classic on the site. https://youtu.be/SIdxVR_7ikg?si=Ewrtb5BsEU0Snh42 Anchorman was a wicked take on the glory days of tv news anchors. One bit was how Will's character was tied to the teleprompter and would read ANYTHING. Might want to turn the speaker down on this if you are at work! https://youtu.be/NMXRxNbPvGI?si=Dho1A-YplaNdrDMu

My guest this week is journalist and author Susannah Cahalan. Susannah's first book, "Brain on Fire," about her experiences with a very rare autoimmune disease that was misdiagnosed as mental illness, was a #1 NY Times bestseller, sold over a million copies, and was made into a Netflix original movie. Her second book, "The Great Pretender," was named a best book of 2020 by Time, The Guardian and The Sunday Times. And her newest book is "The Acid Queen," which tells the fascinating story of Rosemary Woodruff Leary, who is best known as the wife of LSD pioneer Timothy Leary, but who played a major role in bringing psychedelics into the mainstream.NPR called Susannah "one of America's most courageous young journalists." She's been profiled in the New York Times, featured as an answer on Jeopardy!, and appeared as a guest on The Today Show and Fresh Air, among many others.What I loved most in this episode was hearing about how Susannah's process has evolved from something that was very structured, even rigid, into something that's way on the other end of the spectrum, that involves candles made by witches and doing what it takes to open up a “magical circle” where you can engage with the work on a deeper level.We covered:- The side effects of growing up in a house where the grown-ups read newspapers- The gossip column she started for her high school paper- Interning at The New York Post as a 17-year-old- The rare autoimmune disease she experienced in her 20s that was initially misdiagnosed as mental illness, and the fascination with consciousness it fostered- Adapting to the large amounts of time you spend alone as a writer- Resisting the lure of spending too much time alone and in your head- The mix of speaking, ghostwriting, and side projects that supplement the income she makes writing books- Her biggest speaking fail- Her transition from structured–even rigid–writing routines to something way more woo woo- The steps she takes to open up a “magical circle” when it's time to write- The shop in New York City that she gets to create special candles for each project (I'm so in–check the show notes on Substack for a link)- Why writing in the mornings and interviewing and editing in the afternoons works for herVisit Susannah on Instagram @susannahcahalan or at susannhacahalan.com.For full show notes with links to everything we discuss, plus bonus photos!, visit katehanley.substack.com.Thank you for listening!

You're listening to American Ground Radio with Stephen Parr and Louis R. Avallone. This is the full show for January 8, 2026. 0:30 We kick off today's show with Washington's factory fraud. JD Vance’s announcement of a powerful new Assistant Attorney General—armed with nationwide authority to prosecute welfare fraud, immigration fraud, business fraud, and government waste—is the moment the era of slap-on-the-wrist accountability finally ends. With billions already exposed in places like Minnesota and trillions in potential waste on the table, the Trump-Vance team is putting real enforcement behind the Department of Government Efficiency and cutting off the financial incentives that fuel illegal immigration and benefits fraud. No more lawfare, no more fake oversight—this is the federal government getting serious about protecting taxpayers and restoring the rule of law. 9:30 Plus, we cover the Top 3 Things You Need to Know. The House passed a bill today authorizing the extension of Obamacare subsidies. The state of New York is planning on providing free daycare for children under 2 years of age. California, Superior Court judge Israel Claustro pled guilty to one count of mail fraud in conjunction with a worker's compensation scheme. 12:30 Get Performlyte from Victory Nutrition International for 20% off. Go to vni.life/agr and use the promo code AGR20. 13:00 We're pulling back the curtain on the OnlyFans economy and why it’s exploding in the middle of an affordability crisis. While Americans say they’re struggling with inflation, groceries, rent, and healthcare, the U.S. alone is now spending billions of dollars on online pornography, with OnlyFans revenue still climbing, not slowing down. We dig into the darker side of the digital age—how porn monetizes loneliness, isolation, and insecurity, teaches people to tie their worth to their bodies, and replaces real human connection with paid digital fantasy. The takeaway is unsettling: this isn’t just about adult content—it’s about a culture quietly being reshaped by big money, tech, and emotional emptiness. 16:00 The American Mamas take on the Minneapolis ICE shooting that left a woman dead after a chaotic confrontation with federal agents. Terry Netterville and Kimberly Burleson break down what really happened, why video evidence matters, and how political rhetoric, media spin, and calls to “resist ICE” are putting lives in danger. We ask the hard questions about law enforcement, activist incitement, and personal responsibility, while also recognizing the tragedy for the woman’s family. If you'd like to ask our American Mamas a question, go to our website, AmericanGroundRadio.com/mamas and click on the Ask the Mamas button. 23:00 Ken Jennings, the Jeopardy champion turned host, jumped into the political fray with a social-media swipe at President Trump and the Trump administration. What Jennings posted wasn’t just criticism, but a call for political vengeance, the kind of rhetoric that’s already tearing the country apart. It's a stark contrast of Alex Trebek's steady, apolitical legacy and proof that being brilliant with facts doesn’t automatically make someone wise. 26:00 We Dig Deep into President Trump’s warning to the military-industrial complex, after he blasted major defense contractors for overpaying executives and shareholders while under-delivering for national security. It's a closed, cushy industry that’s lost its edge—too little competition, too much comfort, and not nearly enough urgency. China churns out more than a hundred ships a year while the U.S. barely manages a handful. Trump isn’t just talking about money—he’s demanding a wartime mindset, forcing contractors to reinvest in factories, workers, and real production instead of stock buybacks and bloated paychecks, because complacency in defense doesn’t just waste dollars—it risks the country’s survival. 32:00 Get Prodovite Plus from Victory Nutrition International for 20% off. Go to vni.life/agr and use the promo code AGR20. 32:30 We take on Stephen A. Smith’s reaction to the Minneapolis ICE shooting, where he said the officer was justified—but should have “shot the tires instead.” But real-world policing doesn’t work like TV, especially when an officer is being run over by a car on icy pavement. We explain why officers are trained to shoot center mass, not tires or limbs, because missing in a split second can be fatal. Tragedy wasn’t caused by the officer—it was the result of a protester making reckless, deadly choices, while commentators safely second-guess from the sidelines. 35:30 President Trump decided to pull the U.S. out of the UN’s Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, and that's a Bright Spot! The IPCC has long blurred science and politics, pushing alarmist conclusions that its own data doesn’t support while silencing dissenting research. The agency exists more to control policy and funding than to report honest science. Trump’s move to withdraw from the IPCC—and dozens of other UN groups—cuts off money to institutions that undermine U.S. interests and putting America first. 39:30 We take on the AOC–Jesse Watters dust-up, where a crude offhand joke from the Fox News host has now turned into a full-blown political grievance. Watters’ comment about Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Stephen Miller was dumb and unnecessary, but does it really rise to the level of “sexual harassment” the congresswoman claims?

Merriam-Webster's Word of the Day for January 8, 2026 is: gumbo • GUM-boh • noun Gumbo refers to a soup thickened with okra pods or filé and containing meat or seafoods and usually vegetables. The word is also used figuratively to refer to a mixture or blend of something. // The reputation of the family's gumbo guaranteed them an invitation to any and all neighborhood potlucks. // She draws her artistic inspiration from the city's rich gumbo of musical styles. See the entry > Examples: “Gram and Aunt Rachel got a big bucket of gumbo on the way home ... and we ate it out of the container with plastic spoons in front of the clubhouse TV, watching episode after episode of Jeopardy!, none of us wagering any answers. Gull sat in my lap and picked out the okra.” — Tennessee Hill, Girls with Long Shadows: A Novel, 2025 Did you know? Gumbo refers to an aromatic soup of the Creole cuisine of Louisiana, combining African, Indigenous North American, and European elements. It takes its name from the American French word gombo, which in turn is of Bantu origin and related to the Umbundu word ochinggômbo, meaning “okra.” Okra usually plays a starring role in gumbo as a thickener (unless the soup is thickened by filé, powdered young sassafras leaves) alongside the holy trinity of celery, onion, and bell pepper, and any number of additional ingredients, from seafood (shrimp, crab, or oysters) to meat (chicken, sausage, duck, or game) to leafy greens. The variety of ingredients and ways to prepare the dish eventually led to the figurative sense of gumbo referring to a variety, mixture, or mélange of things, as in “a gumbo of ideas.”

Reporter, Cian McCormack speaks to Fianna Fáil and Fine Gael backbenchers about the fury over the Mercosur deal.

The first day of the Adrian Gonzales trial ended with the judge canceling Wednesday's proceedings and sending the jury home. The reason: a potential Brady violation. The defense says prosecutors failed to disclose key information from a witness, calling it a "trial by ambush." The Uvalde County DA was even sworn in and testified she was caught off guard by her own witness.Before the trial derailed, jurors heard emotional testimony. Funeral home employee Gilbert Limones described the gunman firing into classroom windows while Gonzales' patrol car allegedly drove past. His frantic 911 calls played in court. Teacher Stephanie Hale told jurors she armed herself with scissors and planned "to fight if we need to." When they evacuated, the fourth graders had done the same — arming themselves with safety scissors.Special prosecutor Bill Turner laid out a devastating timeline, repeating "Adrian Gonzales remains" as he described the shooter firing into classrooms while the first officer on scene allegedly stayed put. The defense countered that Gonzales faced chaos and confusion and did what he could.Gonzales faces 29 counts of child endangerment.
