Welcome to the Talk My Credo Oscar Night! Your favorite crew dresses up for this special occasion (well, most of us did), to talk about important (and not so important) topics of the world! Dealing with our usual shenanigans, the crew addresses the former DOGE workers tasked with "saving America money" to only target anything they deemed "woke". In their deposition, they were asked to define DEI, which they failed horribly. History was made in the NBA as Miami HEAT star Bam Adebayo scores a historic 83pts, the 2nd most in NBA history. This wasn't met with all love and support though, so we dive into all the drama behind Bam's historic night. Now we move on to the Oscars, where we break down EVERYTHING from the actors, actresses, movies, "drama", and an INTENSE debate amongst the crew on who they deemed to be "elite" actors.

Sports fans can place bets on their favorite teams and athletes faster and easier than before, thanks to legalized sports gambling. But was it the wrong bet to make? Advocates say it's been good for fans, the economy, and the sports industry.  Those who say that what's happened since legalization is a bad thing, say it's driven a rise in gambling addiction and created a public health crisis. Now we debate: Has Legalizing Sports Gambling Become A Bad Bet? Arguing Yes: Harry Levant, Director of Gambling Policy at the Public Health Advocacy Institute   Arguing No: Bill Pascrell III, Partner at Princeton Public Affairs Group  Nayeema Raza, Journalist and Host of "Smart Girl Dumb Questions", is the guest moderator.  Join the conversation on Substack—share your perspective on this episode and subscribe to our weekly newsletter for curated insights from our debaters, moderators, and staff.  Follow us on YouTube, Instagram, LinkedIn, X, Facebook, and TikTok to stay connected with our mission and ongoing debates.  Learn more about your ad choices.

This week we are bringing you a podcast recommendation. A great tech focused weekly show called Kill Switch, hosted by Dexter Thomas. On this episode Dexter goes down a rabbit hole. When an editor at a local magazine in Toronto received a pitch from a promising new freelancer, he didn't expect it to spiral into an obsessive investigation. What followed was a deep dive into a web of fake interviews, impossible bylines, and fake reporting. Dexter talks with Nicholas Hune-Brown to trace how he uncovered an AI journalist and what it reveals about journalism today.  Learn about your ad choices: dovetail.prx.org/ad-choices

— In this episode of Sykes & Lewis LIVE, we dive deep into the chaos of Trump's second term amid the escalating Iran war.— From symbolic coin changes to authoritarian threats and a messy foreign policy quagmire — here's what we cover:— The New “Trump Dime” Drama — The redesigned dime reportedly drops the olive branch (peace) and keeps only arrows (war). Is this a deliberate message during the Iran conflict, or just on-the-nose symbolism?— Iran War Escalation & Strait of Hormuz Crisis — Trump bombs Iran, claims quick wins, but now begs allies (NATO, China, Japan, UK) for warships to reopen the strait after Iran shuts it down. He's like a toddler who makes a mess and then expects everyone else to pick up the pieces.— War on Dissent & Media Treason Threats — Overnight, Trump sent out a. long “Truth” attacking judges, the Fed, and calling negative war coverage “treason” (death penalty implied). We call it out—words have consequences.— White House Makeover Madness — Trump allies push to replace the historic ionic columns with flashy Corinthian ones (think Mar-a-Lago or Supreme Court style). Is he legacy-building or just pissing on icons? Charlie and I discuss the aesthetic obsession and why it's sparking outrage among architects.— Economic Fallout & Political Blowback — Skyrocketing oil, $4+ gas, stalled growth, affordability crisis. Midterms looming — could the growing blue-wave flip the Senate?— Defiance & Hope — We end on resilience: Keep speaking out, support courageous voices (shoutout to Jimmy Kimmel & Stephen Colbert), use the ballot box, and remember — courage is contagious.Subscribe to Matt Lewis on Substack: https://mattklewis.substack.com/Support Matt Lewis at Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/mattlewisFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/MattLewisDCTwitter: https://twitter.com/mattklewisInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/mattlewisreels/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCVhSMpjOzydlnxm5TDcYn0A– Who is Matt Lewis? –Matt K.

Der Konflikt zwischen Iran, Israel und den USA hat sich in den letzten Wochen dramatisch zugespitzt und in der Region eine geopolitische Schockwelle ausgelöst. Was wollen die USA im Iran? Und wie verändert der Krieg die Spielregeln der internationalen Politik? Am 28. Februar 2026 starteten die USA gemeinsam mit Israel umfangreiche Luft- und Raketenangriffe auf iranische Ziele und töteten den langjährigen Obersten Führer des Iran Ali Chamenei. Die Offensive gilt als einer der grössten Militärschläge in der Region seit Jahren und löste umgehend massive Gegenangriffe Irans aus. Der Krieg markiert eine neue Eskalationsstufe eines bereits fragilen Machtgefüges. Die Folgen sind kaum abzuschätzen. Die Situation birgt erhebliche Risiken – nicht nur für die regionale Sicherheit, sondern auch für globale Märkte und Machtgefüge. Wohin führt der Konflikt? Wie weit werden die USA und Israel gehen? Und wie ist dieser Krieg aus moralischer und völkerrechtlicher Sicht zu bewerten? Das Gespräch unter der Leitung von Yves Bossart mit Kamran Safiarian, deutsch-iranischer Politikwissenschaftler und Journalist, und Cyrus Schayegh, Historiker und Nahost-Experte vom «Geneva Graduate Institute».

A federal judge has sided with Washington State Lawmakers in a dispute over press credentials, denying a restraining order sought by conservative media figures. The lawsuit claimed that the lawmakers unfairly denied them access by refusing press passes. This decision raises concerns about potential bias in media access and the ability of independent journalists to report on government activities effectively. Brandi Kruse, a prominent figure in the case, argued for equal access and transparency. Critics argue this sets a dangerous precedent, limiting diverse perspectives in news coverage and potentially shielding lawmakers from scrutiny. This ruling underscores the ongoing tension between government control and press freedom, particularly for conservative outlets. We will keep you updated on this developing story as it unfolds in Washington.

From taking down barbed-wire fences for pronghorn and elk In Wyoming and elephants in Kenya, to letting wetland water flow naturally in South Florida for wading birds and fish, to creating 'agave highways' for migrating birds to refuel in New Mexico, to designing spaces with wildlife in mind everywhere, journalist Hillary Rosner shares her insights on how humans are helping stitch back together fragmented and degraded habitats for wild animals globally in her new book "ROAM: Wild Animals and the Race to Repair Our Fractured World" (published with gorgeous photography in 2025 by Patagonia Press on 100% recycled non-bleached paper). See Hillary's website at https://hillaryr.net/  In this 50-minute interview, In Tune to Nature radio host Carrie Freeman especially enjoys talking with Hillary (who works at Univ of Colorado's Center for Environmental Journalism) about lessons from the places in the USA they both went to work on books on wildlife -- the rapidly developing/growing areas of the Yellowstone National Park region in Montana and Wyoming, and South Florida's Everglades National Park/Big Cypress region in Southwest Florida. Hillary describes how the Corkscrew Sanctuary in Florida is being hemmed in by housing developments, and how those human communities are wanting to divert wetland water to prevent flooded streets and yards, at the expense of Sanctuary residents like birds, fish, and alligators; she also shares her experiences with volunteers taking down several miles of barbed wire fences near Cody, Wyoming and how fences can be redesigned to let certain animals get over or under them safely instead of being a dangerous impediment for elk, pronghorn, bears, mountain lions and other mammals. You can see her list of organizations doing good work for wildlife in those regions and the global locations in her book (on the Patagonia Press Roam page).

Journalist and author Sam Quinones spent his career reporting on crime, drug trafficking and addiction. After his latest book on the opioid epidemic, he turned to a vastly different topic that long held his interest—the tuba, an instrument that for decades was often looked down on or ignored. The more Quinones learned about the tuba, and the people that dedicate their lives to mastering this complicated instrument, the more his interest in the world of band (and banda) grew. He takes us into his new book “The Perfect Tuba,” to explore its history and what we can all learn from working to master a craft.

In this episode of Tall Boy Radio, host Beans sits down with a true Renaissance man of the New York creative scene: Gabriel Rotello.From the grimy, loud-fast-rules energy of the 1970s underground to the high-stakes world of investigative journalism, Gabriel's career has been a masterclass in following one's curiosity—wherever it may lead.The CBGB Era: Gabriel takes us back to the summer of 1977. We discuss the sweaty, sticker-covered walls of the legendary Bowery club and what it was really like to be in the room while the foundations of punk and new wave were being laid.The Musical Journey: Before he was a chronicler of culture, he was a creator within it. Gabriel shares stories from his own musical career, the transition from the stage to the page, and how the "DIY" ethos of the punk scene influenced his later work.A Journalist's Legacy: As an influential journalist and the founding editor of OutWeek, Gabriel played a pivotal role in LGBTQ+ media. He and Beans discuss the art of the scoop, the responsibility of the press during times of crisis, and what it means to be a "truth-teller" in a changing media landscape."The CBGB conspiracy": The heart of the conversation centers on Gabriel's latest novel. Set against the backdrop of 1977 New York—a city on the brink of both a cultural explosion and financial collapse—the book serves as both a love letter and a gritty post-mortem of a specific moment in time.Whether you're a music history buff, an aspiring novelist, or someone who misses the "old New York," this conversation bridges the gap between lived experience and historical fiction. Gabriel offers a unique perspective on how we remember our past and why the stories we tell about it still matter today."You didn't go to CBGB to see a polished performance; you went to see someone figure out who they were in real-time. That's what I wanted to capture in the book." — Gabriel RotelloBuy The CBGB conspiracy hereThe CBGB Conspiracy eBook : Rotello, Gabriel: Amazon.co.uk: Kindle Storetallboyradio.com

Investigative journalists ⁠⁠Mandy Matney⁠⁠ and ⁠Liz Farrell⁠⁠ sit down with Pulitzer Prize winning Journalist and Bone Valley podcast creator Gilbert King for a conversation that connects wrongful conviction, racial injustice, and the raw power of storytelling across decades of American history.  King shares how his research into Thurgood Marshall's landmark civil rights battles in the Jim Crow South led him to Leo Schofield — a Florida man who spent 36 years in prison for a murder he didn't commit while the real killer, Jeremy Scott, walked free and killed again. He also recounts the jaw-dropping moment he sat with Leo when Jeremy called unexpectedly — and Leo forgave him. We're also unpacking why prosecutors double down instead of admitting error, how the judicial system's resistance to finality crushes innocent people, and why one storyteller's decision to shine a light can change everything.  ☕ Cups Up! ⚖️ Episode References Get to know Pulitzer Prize winner Gilbert King — follow him on Facebook and Instagram Listen to Gilbert's podcast Bone Valley - Leo Schofield's storyCan't get enough of Bone Valley?

Hello from Team Simon! We're taking a short hiatus, but A Bit of Optimism will return with brand-new episodes March 24th. In the meantime, we're revisiting some of our favorite episodes. Episodes that many of you who listened, shared them, and told us what resonated. This week, we're bringing back Simon's conversation with journalist, author, and longtime friend Maria Shriver. Maria Shriver was born into the legendary Kennedy and Shriver families, arriving with a script already written for her—an identity shaped by legacy and expectation. From the start, the world had ideas about who she should be. But after decades as a journalist, years as California's First Lady, and raising four amazing kids, Maria has been on a lifelong journey to peel back the layers and ask Who am I now?—and answer it for herself. Maria also happens to be Simon's best friend. They talked about how they became each other's “8-minute friends,” the quiet questions that shape us, and Maria's beautiful new book of poetry—which she reads from in this episode. It's all about identity, self-reflection, and finding your voice in a world that keeps trying to define it for you. If you've ever wondered who you are beyond what you do or how to rediscover yourself after life changes, this conversation is a beautiful reminder that identity is something we can reclaim again and again. This… is A Bit of Optimism. --------------------------- For more on Maria Shriver, check out: her book: https://bookshop.org/p/books/i-am-mar... ---------------------------

If you've been watching the news and feeling despair because you can't do anything about it, this episode is for you.The Epstein files, revealing how powerful men think about, talk about, and treat women. ICE raids tearing families apart. Strikes on Iranian cities - and schools full of children!In this episode, I make a direct connection between these social issues and what happens inside our homes every day. The patterns playing out on a global scale - where the person with more power decides whose feelings count - show up in our families too, often in moments we don't even notice, and that seem like they're about discipline. The decisions we make in those moments are quietly teaching our kids lessons we may not intend to pass on. Questions this episode will answerWhat do ICE raids have to do with parenting? When children watch some families live in fear of being separated while others are basically safe by default, they learn that some people's safety matters more than others. That same lesson can show up at home when we use our power as parents to override our kids' feelings and needs. Why is it important to teach kids about consent? Research shows that girls start shifting from seeing their body as something that helps them do things to seeing it as something to be judged - often earlier than we realize. Teaching consent starts long before those conversations about sex. It starts when we stop forcing our children to accept hugs and give kisses they don't want from well-meaning relatives. How do you explain consent to children? Consent is about whose body, feelings, and needs matter most. When we override our child's no - even in small everyday moments - we teach them that the person with more power wins. This episode explores what it looks like to do things differently. How do the Iran strikes connect to how we raise our kids? When leaders frame bombing cities where children live as "protecting freedom", they're using the same logic many of us heard growing up: that hurting someone with less power is justified when the person with more power decides it's for a good reason. This episode traces that logic from foreign policy all the way back to the family dinner table. What does it mean that we're all part of the system - not just the people doing obvious harm? It's easy to point to the person at the center causing the most visible damage. But around that person are rings of people who actively enable them, then people who know and look away, and then the rest of us - making decisions every day in our families and communities that make it more or less likely that people with power can keep using it. This episode explains what that outermost ring looks like in ordinary family life, and what it means to resist it from there. What you'll learn in this episodeWhy the same power dynamics driving ICE raids, the Epstein files, and the Iran strikes also show up in everyday parenting momentsHow the language our leaders use about migrants, women, and foreign countries shapes what our kids quietly absorb about whose lives matterWhat research tells us about how girls experience the shift from body ownership to body judgment - and what parents can do to slow that shift downWhy the parents who explode when their kids say no are often people who were never allowed to say no themselvesHow using power to manage our kids' behavior in stressful moments teaches the same lesson as the biggest injustices in the news - just on a smaller scaleWhat it looks like to build a home where your child's feelings and needs count - even when you're overwhelmed Taming Your TriggersIf you recognized yourself anywhere in this episode - if you know that when the poop hits the fan you fall back on power because you don't know what else to do - that's exactly what we work on in my Taming Your Triggers workshop. In the workshop, we go deep on why you get triggered, what you actually need in those moments, and how to build a different response from the inside out - so you're not just white-knuckling it through the hard moments anymore.And we've made it more accessible.

3. This file explores veteran journalist Cholerton and his translator Natalia. Having witnessed decades of Stalinist rule, Cholerton's deep knowledge eventually led to his exile from the Soviet Union. Natalia suffered a tragic fate, enduring ten years in the Gulag for her association with him, illustrating the immense danger faced by truth-seekers. (20)1942 LIVERPOOL

6. Nadia's secret dissidence is exposed when journalist Blondon publishes a novel revealing her true views. Arrested in 1948, she survives eight grueling years in the Gulag. Philps concludes her story with a "happy ending," as Nadia eventually immigrates to Israel in the 1970s, finally escaping the long cycle of Russian brutality. (23)1942 ROSTOV
