This week on SUPERWOMEN, I'm joined by Nayeema Raza, creator and host of the newly launched podcast Smart Girl, Dumb Questions. With a background spanning global consulting, documentary storytelling and top-charting podcasts, Nayeema decided it was time to create something entirely her own. In this episode, she shares how a childhood shaped by constant change made her comfortable with reinvention, and why staying still has always felt more foreign than starting over. For Nayeema, comfort has never been the goal. It's the cue that it's time to move on. Her path has been guided less by long-term plans and more by instinct: when something starts feeling too safe, that's her “clue to unlock the next thing.”She opens up about what drew her to launch a show built on curiosity, and why asking the “dumb” questions out loud matters more than ever. We talk about what it means to redefine ambition on your own terms, the pressure of being both the business and the brand, and the surprising freedom that can come from a failed milestone. Whether it was ending a long-term relationship, starting over in New York at 31, or launching a podcast from scratch, Nayeema's path proves that reinvention isn't just possible, it can be joyful, curious and entirely your own.From navigating the realities of running her own show to reshaping what mastery looks like, Nayeema is creating a space where not knowing isn't a weakness, it's the starting point. This episode is a reminder that sometimes the smartest thing you can do is ask the question everyone else is too afraid to say out loud. Thank you for listening!

snyopsis- Challenging the narrative on Palestine in this edition of our monthly Meet the BIPOC Press series : "The Encampments" documentary,  and its creators aim to push back against the dominant narrative on Palestine, highlighting the difference between the corporate media coverage and those who have no allegiance to money or corporations, and sparking a wider conversation about the world's first live streamed genocide. “The Encampments” co-produced by Macklemore, brings viewers into the anti-Gaza war protests at Columbia University and gets up close and personal with leaders including Mahmoud Khalil, the student negotiator currently detained by ICE in violation of a court's order. In this special episode in our series Meet the BIPOC Press, Laura sits down with Sueda Polat and Grant Miner, two of Khalil's colleagues in the encampments, who were suspended and expelled, respectively, as well as the film's co-director, journalist Kei Pritsker of BreakThrough News to discuss how the film came to be, and where the situation stands today as well as what's missing and who is misrepresented in commercial news. All that, plus a commentary from Laura on Columbia University's move to suspend four college journalists “being too close to the action.”“I don't really participate as a Jewish person, I participate as an activist and a person of conscience that is Jewish . . . There's a very insidious narrative that was basically, ‘If you're not Jewish and you're not Palestinian, then talking about this is strange. Having an opinion on this conflict is strange and you should just stop talking about it because you're probably only motivated by antisemitism.' I want to push back and say that anybody can have an opinion on this. It's the world's first livestreamed genocide.” - Grant MinerGuests:• Grant Miner: Columbia University Student Activist, The Encampments; President, SWC-UAW 2710• Sueda Polat: Columbia University Student Activist, The Encampments;  Graduate Student Human Rights• Kei Pritsker: Co-Director, The Encampments, Journalist, BreakThrough News Watch the special report released on YouTube May 23rd 5pm ET; PBS World Channel May 25th, and on over 300 public stations across the country (check your listings, or search here via zipcode).

Podcastmaker Jaïr Stein presenteert ‘Onaantastbaar', een indringende, 9-delige podcast over grensoverschrijdend gedrag bij de Nederlandse Moslim Omroep. De serie, gemaakt met Jan Maarten Deurvorst en Huda Rais, laat zien hoe een onveilige werkcultuur jarenlang kon voortbestaan onder falend toezicht en beïnvloed door maatschappelijke vooroordelen.  Presentatie: Frénk van der Linden

Steve Baker: (Grok generated) Steve Baker is an investigative journalist known for his work with Blaze Media, a conservative news outlet. Born on April 27, 1968, in Louisiana, he grew up in Shreveport and later settled in Raleigh, North Carolina. Baker has a background in music, performing as a trumpeter and vocalist for Bull City Syndicate, and has two children, Stormie and Duncan. He gained attention for his coverage of the January 6, 2021, U.S. Capitol riot, during which he was present as a freelance journalist, later selling footage to outlets like The New York Times and HBO. In March 2024, he was arrested by the FBI and charged with four misdemeanor counts related to his actions at the Capitol, including trespassing and disorderly conduct. Baker pleaded guilty to these charges in November 2024 but expressed confidence in receiving a pardon from former President Donald Trump, who issued pardons to many January 6 defendants in January 2025. His arrest sparked debate, with supporters claiming it was an attack on press freedom, while critics pointed to his sympathetic statements toward the rioters as evidence of bias.

Carl Hiaasen: gin & tonic (Barr Hill gin, tonic, lime wedge)Carl discusses the talented Vince Vaughn and how he will forever more inhabit the character Yancy, tells how his surroundings in Florida have changed so much since the time of his youth and why that has inspired him to make Florida a recurring ‘character' in his novels, reveals a time that he was nearly eaten by an alligator while floating on an inner tube, shares incredible personal stories with Jimmy Buffett and Warren Zevon, names the book that expanded for him what can be possible to do in a novel, and offers an important piece of advice especially if you live in Florida.

On this episode of Coffee with a Journalist, we sit down with Gabriella Ulloa, a freelance journalist whose work has graced the pages of Architectural Digest, New York Magazine, The New York Times, and Refinery29, among others. Gabriella opens up about her evolving approach to managing a bustling inbox, how she stays (mostly) organized with her colorful system of labels, and the challenges—and perks—of juggling multiple roles, including hosting her own YouTube show. She shares what kind of pitches catch her eye, especially when it comes to home design, cultural stories, and topics that move the needle in the Latino community. Plus, you'll hear her candid thoughts on relationship-building with publicists, what makes a pitch stand out (or flop), and her passion for exploring the human stories behind the headlines. If you want the inside scoop on pitching to freelancers and keeping up in today's fast-paced media landscape, this is one conversation you won't want to miss!

After Pope Francis died, it took the Roman Catholic Church just 17 days to choose a successor in Pope Leo XIV. It has been well over 6 months since Archbishop of Canterbury Justin Welby resigned and we are only just making sense of those chosen to sit on the Crown Nominations Commission (CNC), that will recommend his successor. Even then, it's unlikely we will know more until the autumn. Why has it taken so long? Journalist, commentator – and quite frankly expert – Andrew Graystone joins Damian Thompson and William Moore, the Spectator's features editor, to take listeners through the process. From committees to choose committees and confusion about the rules, as William comments, even acclaimed Conclave writer Robert Harris would struggle to make a fast-paced and riveting story out of the Anglican succession. That's not to say there isn't plenty of intrigue though: from bishops effectively ruling themselves out, to opaque appointments, and even a former head of M15 appointed to lead the CNC.  Andrew, Damian and William discuss the process, the problems plaguing it and unpack those in contention to be the next Primate of All England. The chosen successor will ultimately lead the third largest Christian communion, with around 100 million members worldwide, and play a prominent role in British society with a seat in the House of Lords and as a spiritual advisor to King and country – no pressure.   Produced by Patrick Gibbons.

For politics, we focus on the complexities of political decisions and their effect on healthcare, particularly regarding a case in Georgia involving a brain-dead pregnant woman.

Wikipedia macht Wissen für alle Menschen zugänglich - kostenfrei und ohne Algorithmus. Doch die freie Enzyklopädie ist in Gefahr: Seit Monaten attackieren US-Konservative rund um Donald Trump die Plattform. Zu „links“ und zu „woke“ sei sie, schreibt etwa Tech-Milliardär Elon Musk auf X. Ein Trump-naher Staatsanwalt stellte zuletzt sogar die Gemeinnützigkeit der Stiftung Wikimedia infrage, die hinter der Plattform steht. Kommt er damit durch, könnte das zu ernsthaften finanziellen Schwierigkeiten führen. Gleichzeitig versuchen Rechtsextreme, Informationen und Diskurse auf Wikipedia zu manipulieren. Klar ist: Die Zeiten für Wikipedia und das freie Wissen in den USA dürften schwerer werden. Aber warum ist die freie Enzyklopädie den Rechten in den USA ein solcher Dorn im Auge? Ist sie überhaupt noch zu retten? Und was bedeutet all das für Wikipedia in Deutschland? Darüber sprechen wir mit Franziska Heine, Vorständin von Wikimedia Deutschland, Christoph Schattleitner, Host des Podcasts „Sockenpuppenzoo“, Tomas Rudl, Journalist bei netzpolitik.org, und Henrik Schönemann vom Projekt Safeguarding Research & Culture. Podcast-Tipp: Sockenpuppenzoo - Angriff auf Wikipedia Wikipedia ist die vielleicht wichtigste Webseite unserer Demokratie. Doch das System ist fragil. Rechtsextreme haben die Offenheit Wikipedias genutzt, um Informationen und Diskurse unerkannt zu manipulieren. Mutmaßlich schrieben sie mithilfe von hunderten von Fake Account Artikel zur deutschen Geschichte um, erfanden Fakten, relativierten den Holocaust - bis sich ihnen eine Handvoll Wikipedianer*innen mutig entgegenstellte. Ob die Täter wirklich gestoppt wurden, ist bis heute nicht klar. Die Investigativjournalisten Christoph Schattleitner und Daniel Laufer nehmen im Podcast Sockenpuppenzoo die Spur auf und fragen: Was sind das für Menschen, die hinter diesem Angriff stecken? Und können wir Wikipedia heute wirklich noch vertrauen? https://www.ardaudiothek.de/sendung/sockenpuppenzoo-angriff-auf-wikipedia/13996869/

It would be funny if it wasn't so tragic. According to the Pulitzer finalist Matthew Hongoltz-Hetling, the majority of Americans no longer trust standard scientific proof. As he notes in his new book, The Ghost Labs, this faith in evidence based science has been replaced by the growth of bigfoot hunters, mediums, and alien enthusiasts. Hongoltz-Hetling traces this trend from his previous work on libertarian movements and alternative medicine, noting how the pandemic accelerated distrust in traditional institutions. He argues these paranormal beliefs, while seemingly harmless, fragment communities and undermine collective problem-solving. So how to fix this crisis in scientific trust? Hongoltz-Hetling's suggestion of licensing psychics and incorporating these beliefs into clinical settings to prevent further institutional erosion might sound a little absurd. But perhaps it's one concrete way of addressing social cohesion in our bizarre age of bigfoot hunters, mediums, and alien enthusiasts.* Crisis of institutional trust: Americans are increasingly rejecting science, government, universities, and even churches, turning instead to individualistic paranormal beliefs as alternatives to evidence-based institutions.* COVID as a catalyst: The pandemic accelerated existing distrust, with libertarian "medical freedom" messaging providing a bridge between fringe beliefs and mainstream Republican politics, leading to figures like RFK Jr. gaining power.* Fragmented vs. collective belief: Unlike organized religion which builds community through shared doctrine, paranormal beliefs are highly individualistic and based on personal experience, ultimately driving people apart rather than together.* Real-world consequences: This isn't just harmless entertainment—it leads to defunding of universities, people avoiding medical care, and the weakening of institutions that society depends on for collective problem-solving.* Controversial solution: Hongoltz-Hetling reluctantly suggests licensing psychics and incorporating paranormal beliefs into clinical settings as a pragmatic strategy to prevent complete institutional collapse, though he acknowledges this feels like "capitulation to dark forces."Matthew Hongoltz-Hetling is a freelance journalist specializing in narrative features and investigative reporting. He has been named a finalist for the Pulitzer Prize, won a George Polk Award, and been voted Journalist of the Year by the Maine Press association, among numerous other honors. His work has appeared in Foreign Policy, USA Today, Popular Science, Atavist Magazine, Pulitzer Center on Crisis Reporting, the Associated Press, and elsewhere.Keen On America is a reader-supported publication.

Journalist and author John Dinges joins Suzi to discuss his new book, Chile in Their Hearts. The book reopens the case of Charles Horman and Frank Teruggi — two young Americans who went to Chile to experience the radical democratic socialist experiment of Salvador Allende's Popular Unity government — and were detained and executed in the days following the brutal military takeover of September 11, 1973. The story was immortalized in Costa-Gavras' Oscar-winning film Missing, which depicted Horman as the man who knew too much about U.S. involvement in the coup. That became the widely accepted story of Horman's death, as well as that of Frank Teruggi, who was arrested, tortured and killed during the coup's brutal early days. But John Dinges, himself a young journalist who lived in Chile from 1972-1978, uncovered circumstances and facts of their cases that challenge this version as a myth. His meticulous examination of the evidence reveals the shoddy investigation of the facts and the coverup behind its false conclusions. Jacobin Radio with Suzi Weissman features conversations with leading thinkers and activists, with a focus on labor, the economy, and protest movements.

This week, Alex sits down with Daniel Seifert, a journalist whose work has appeared in the BBC, New York Times, and National Geographic. Daniel shares how he stumbled upon neurogenic tremoring through YouTube videos while looking for ways to manage deadline stress. What started as curious exploration quickly became a regular practice that helped him sleep better, release jaw tension, and feel more at ease in his body. His story is a reminder that our bodies already know how to heal—sometimes we just need to rediscover the natural mechanisms that are built right in!Daniel's experience goes beyond just physical relief—he noticed how tremoring seemed to "dissolve the hyphen between mind and body," making him more receptive to music and even improving his posture. He compares the tremoring response to laughter: both are natural, sometimes uncontrollable movements that bring deep release and relief. Alex adds fascinating context about how Dr. David Berceli developed this approach after observing natural tremoring responses in war zones, recognizing that what many see as just "shaking with fear" might actually be the body's innate wisdom trying to complete the stress cycle.The conversation flows into how tremoring complements other wellness practices that Daniel enjoys, from Tai Chi to breathwork to sauna and cold plunging. Alex shares stories of how this simple practice is spreading through fire departments, religious communities, and meditation centers—creating powerful results when paired with other modalities. Whether you're new to body-based practices or a seasoned wellness enthusiast, this warm conversation offers a friendly introduction to how inviting your body's natural tremors might become a game-changer in your healing toolkit.Key Highlights: 0:00 - Introduction to Daniel's story4:12 - Discovering tremoring on YouTube8:30 - "What happened during my first tremoring session"13:45 - When tremoring leads to spontaneous laughter18:23 - How Tai Chi complements neurogenic tremoring22:50 - Enhanced music appreciation after tremoring27:15 - The posture benefits Daniel experienced33:40 - "Your body knows how to heal"39:10 - Invitation vs resistance in the body42:30 - Tips for tremoring beginners48:15 - Breathwork and tremoring: perfect partners52:40 - The Feldenkrais connection56:20 - Surprising insights about athletic bodies and tremoring59:45 - How firefighters are using tremoring1:03:12 - Meditation becomes deeper after tremoringLinks & ResourcesShaking Medicine: https://www.amazon.com/Shaking-Medicine-Healing-Ecstatic-Movement/dp/1594771499 Wilhelm Reich: https://www.britannica.com/biography/Wilhelm-Reich Alexander Lowen: https://www.lowenfoundation.org/about-alexander-lowen Institute for Zen Leadership: https://zenleader.global/ Find us Online: Sign up for our newsletter to learn more about the power of embodiment:https://www.redbeardsomatictherapy.com/Follow us on social media:Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/RedBeardSomaticTherapyInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/redbeardsomatictherapyLinkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/alexandermgreene

Today, we're speaking with Natasha Hakimi Zapata, an award-winning journalist based in Europe. She's also the author of Another World Is Possible: Lessons for America From Around the Globe. The book came out a few months ago and has given me so much hope and inspiration for the United States.Most of us are closer to being homeless than we are to being millionaires, with only one healthcare disaster, a lost job, or another calamity sending us to the brink. Yet, we often still buy into the myth of being "self-made" in the US, hustling hard to get to a better place one day.It's a promise that hasn't been delivered for many. In her book, Natasha travels to nine countries around the world to show how, in those places, instead of promising better futures tomorrow, there is already a better present now.Become a Going Places member for as little as $6 a month.
