Welcome to The Reel Schmooze with ToI film reviewer Jordan Hoffman and host Amanda Borschel-Dan, where we bring you all the entertainment news and film reviews a Jew can use. Taking a break from pulling classics out of the vaults, this week's film, "Don't Say Good Luck," just dropped on Netflix. Sunny Sandler stars as a 16-year-old theater kid, backed up by a cast including Melanie Lynskey, Max Greenfield, Stephanie Beatriz, Bebe Neuwirth, and Steve Buscemi. Within minutes, it's clear that what could have been a superficial teen flick produced by Adam and Jackie Sandler is a relatable look at "the show going on" while a family member fights cancer. Notes Hoffman, that depth may be due in part to the involvement of director Julia Hart and co-producer/writer Jordan Horowitz -- both veteran filmmakers with proven hits. However, it is Sunny Sandler who is the glowing glue of the movie, providing singing and acting chops rare in a 16-year-old. Hoffman gives a bit of the backstory behind the movie's production and insight into the choice of "The Waitress" as the play within the film. Labeling it a "weeper," he qualifies that it's not really a downer, rather realistically portrays the family's dilemmas. Borschel-Dan, who watched with two of her teenagers, realizes they are 100% the target audience for this intergenerational, Jewish-coded tale that is all too familiar. Let’s hear who gave this film an “oy,” “meh” or the prized “not bad” this week on The Reel Schmooze.

The business world is obsessed with who has the biggest AI model, the fastest chips, and the most impressive benchmarks. But the real question shaping the next decade of technology is not about computing power. It is about trust. Meta recently made headlines when Mark Zuckerberg published a 6,500-word manifesto outlining his vision for democratizing artificial intelligence, and at the same time announced plans to spend up to $145 billion on data centers. Meanwhile, LinkedIn is grappling with an AI content crisis that reveals just how confused platforms are about the role of artificial intelligence in human communication. These stories are connected, and understanding them through a category design lens changes everything about how you see them. This is just some of the topics that Pirates Christopher Lochhead, Eddie Yoon and Bri Clark discuss on this episode of Pirate Street Journal. Each week, the Category Pirates pick three headlines worth paying attention to and break down the category underneath. You're listening to Christopher Lochhead: Follow Your Different. We are the real dialogue podcast for people with a different mind. So get your mind in a different place, and hey ho, let's go.   Zuckerberg Meta’s Big Vision Has a Bigger Problem Zuckerberg’s manifesto is genuinely compelling as a piece of category design. He frames a problem, presents a new vision for the future, and positions Meta as the company that will put artificial intelligence into the hands of everyone. That is textbook category design thinking, and directionally, much of what he writes makes a great deal of sense. The problem is that the person delivering this vision is Zuckerberg himself. Meta’s business model is built on advertising, and advertising gets more profitable the more intimately the platform knows you. No matter how inspiring the language in a 6,500-word essay, the underlying give-to-get dynamic remains deeply unfavorable to the user, and a history of privacy scandals makes it nearly impossible to take the trust language seriously.   The AI Abundance Argument and Why It Falls Short One of the more attractive ideas in Zuckerberg’s manifesto is the concept of AI abundance, the idea that everyone should have access to powerful artificial intelligence tools for free or at very low cost. On the surface, this sounds generous and even visionary. But abundance without accountability is not a category strategy. It is a data acquisition strategy dressed up in philosophical language. Compare this to what companies like Google have done with moonshot projects such as Waymo and AlphaFold. These initiatives demonstrate a give-to-get dynamic that at least gestures toward broader human benefit. Meta has consistently struggled to articulate what the consumer actually receives beyond the product itself. The metaverse is the clearest example of a massive investment that never produced a meaningful answer to the question of what it was for.   LinkedIn’s AI Slop Problem and the Scarlet Letter Trap LinkedIn is now reporting that 41% of long-form posts on the platform are entirely AI generated, and the company has introduced a button allowing users to flag content they suspect was written by artificial intelligence. On the surface this sounds like a reasonable response to a real problem. In practice, it is a dangerous overreaction that punishes legitimate creators alongside lazy ones. The future of creating everything is vibe creating, meaning humans working in genuine collaboration with AI to produce ideas, arguments, and content that reflect real thought and real points of view. Labeling that output as synthetic or slop is the equivalent of telling someone their spreadsheet contains synthetic math. If a piece of content is unhelpful or obvious, the solution is an unfollow button, not an AI scarlet letter that penalizes the tool rather than the thinking behind it.

Ike Reese and Spike Eskin react to A.J. Brown's departure to the Patriots and his recent comments about leaving Philadelphia. They analyze a disappointing joint practice where Jalen Hurts threw three interceptions while the defense struggled against their former star receiver. The conversation also features the reveal of the fan-voted Phillies Mount Rushmore.

Edmund Fitton-Brown argues that the U.S. is "running out of ideas" regarding economic pressure on Iran, labeling a land blockade as far-fetched due to uncooperative neighbors. He suggests that secondary sanctions on Chinese "teapot" refineries are a more practical tool. Regarding Yemen, Fitton-Brown observes that the Houthis have become emboldened by U.S. irresolution and are pushing south to capture the Bab el-Mandeb. He expresses cautious optimism regarding Jared Kushner's diplomatic delegation, noting that experienced figures like Tony Blair are unlikely to be "dupes" for Hamas during negotiations. (5)

In this episode, Cory Connors reconnects with longtime industry friend Emily Williams to discuss her new role leading How2Recycle. Emily traces her path from chemical engineering through roles at Michelman and TC Transcontinental (now ProAmpac) into a career built around product sustainability, policy, and partnerships. The conversation dives into the chaos surrounding California's SB 343 truth-in-labeling law and the recent injunction affecting it, how How2Recycle is guiding members through the uncertainty, and what's ahead at the organization's September 30th event in San Diego. Along the way, Emily and Cory swap stories about being recognized in public, obsessively sorting recycling bins at airports, and the growing culture of pre-competitive collaboration across the packaging industry.Key Topics Discussed:Emily's path from chemical engineering into packaging sustainability, and her new role at How2RecycleThe evolution of sustainability from a niche "side room" topic to a central industry focusThe SB 343 injunction: what it does and doesn't change, and How2Recycle's "hold the line" guidance for membersCalifornia's 60/60 recyclability threshold and the confusion it creates for brandsHow companies are responding differently to SB 343, from full compliance to pausing label rolloutsThe label redesign process: consumer studies, working groups, and industry jargon that doesn't translate to shoppersOngoing research into better consumer messaging around cleaning and emptying packagingContamination in recycling streams, including a look at the "wall of shame" at recovery facilitiesThe role of trust, transparency, and credibility in keeping recycling systems functionalNonprofit advocacy vs. lobbying: how How2Recycle can influence policy within legal limitsA sneak peek at the September 30th How2Recycle event in San Diego, including a cross-association panel on changing laws like SB 343The rise of pre-competitive collaboration as an industry normHow2Recycle's expanded member engagement efforts, including booths at Advance and the Summit and high-attendance member town hallsResources Mentioned:How2RecycleSustainable Packaging Coalition (SPC) events: Advance and the SummitCalifornia SB 343 (Truth in Labeling law)Circular Action Alliance (Oregon)Ameripen and the PAC ActFPA's Fall Flex Forward meetingFPI's Spring meetingSCS GlobalContact:Listeners interested in How2Recycle's labeling program, upcoming events, or member resources can connect with Emily Williams and the How2Recycle team at their September 30th event in San Diego, or at upcoming SPC events including Advance and the Summit this fall.Support our Sponsors Learn more here:- 3M- Specright- Forest https://anewearthproject.com/collections/new-earth-approvedConnect with CoryConnect with Cory on LinkedIn here: https://www.linkedin.com/in/cory-connors/I'm here to help you make your packaging more sustainable!

Thema: Kreativität jenseits der Schubladen "Ich finde dieses Labeling unfassbar nervig. In meiner gesamten Laufbahn habe ich wahrscheinlich schon jeden Titel gehabt, den ihr euch vorstellen könnt. Aber am Ende habe ich immer das Gleiche gemacht: Übersetzerin zwischen Communities und Marken.“ In der neuen Episode von #WhatsNextCreatives sprechen Kim Notz und Bärbel Egli-Unckrich mit Annika "Shawty" Manick, Director Influencer & Creator Solutions bei We Are Social, über die Frage, was kreative Arbeit heute eigentlich ausmacht, wenn sie sich immer weniger in klassische Schubladen einordnen lässt. Shawty beschreibt, warum sie sich selbst vor allem als Übersetzerin zwischen Welten versteht. Zwischen Communities und Marken, zwischen kulturellen Räumen und kreativen Ideen. Für sie beginnt gute Kommunikation nicht beim Kanal, sondern bei der Idee und bei der Frage, welchen Platz eine Marke in einer Community überhaupt einnehmen darf. Cultural Marketing bedeutet deshalb nicht, kurzfristig Trends mitzunehmen, sondern Beziehungen aufzubauen und kulturelle Zusammenhänge wirklich zu verstehen. Im Gespräch geht es außerdem darum, wie sich kreative Rollen verändern und warum starre Berufsbezeichnungen immer weniger weiterhelfen. Kreative Exzellenz entsteht aus Shawtys Sicht im Zusammenspiel unterschiedlicher Perspektiven, aus gemeinsamen Impulsen und aus Menschen, die ihre eigenen Bubbles und Leidenschaften ins Team einbringen. Genau diese Vielfalt wird für Agenturen zunehmend zum Wettbewerbsvorteil. Zum Schluss richtet sich der Blick nach vorn. Es geht um die Zukunft von Creator Marketing, den Einfluss von KI und die Frage, welche Aufgaben sich automatisieren lassen und welche bewusst menschlich bleiben müssen. Denn gerade dort, wo Kreativität, Vertrauen und echte Beziehungen entstehen, sieht Shawty auch künftig den größten Wert kreativer Arbeit.

Mindful Birding with guest Holly Merker, founder of the Mindful Birding Network and co-author of Ornitherapy: For Your Mind, Body, and Soul Mindful Birding combines observing birds with mindfulness techniques, creating a practice that incorporates a heightened awareness. Labeling or identifying birds is not the primary focus; rather the intention is slowing down and noticing, using birds as our guides. It's about presence with curiosity and without judgment. This style of observation invites self-exploration, reciprocity, and an acknowledgment of our physical and emotional responses while within the practice. A growing body of scientific research shows that deepening our experiences with nature by intentionally slowing down, engaging our senses, and being aware of the present moment, holds a myriad of benefits to overall human wellness. The benefits include reduced anxiety and stress, increased memory and attention, and opportunities for social and community engagement. Additionally, the practice of birding brings educational benefits, citizen science opportunities and conservation engagement, experiences that are increasingly important because of climate change and habitat destruction. Holly is co-author of two books, including the award-winning Ornitherapy: For Your Mind, Body, and Soul. She is co-host and co-producer of the Mindful Birding Podcast, and founder of the Mindful Birding Network. Her work has been featured by British Vogue, AARP, the Australian Broadcasting Corporation, Psychotherapy Networker Magazine, and numerous other media outlets. A cancer survivor, Holly credits birds with helping restore her health and well-being and now helps others discover the healing potential of engagement with wild birds.

Colonel Grant Newsham challenges the assumption of inevitable Chinese dominance, labeling it a "fake it till you make it" strategy intended to intimidate foreigners. He points out that China's property market is a "crater" and its currency is not freely convertible, forcing the CCP to aggressively export overcapacity to earn the dollars needed for raw materials. Newsham highlights that over 600 million Chinese citizens live on less than $5 a day, and even the CCP elite, including Xi Jinping, keep wealth overseas as a hedge against the system's future. He argues that China's high-tech focus on AI and robotics does not solve its massive youth unemployment. Newsham concludes that China is a "big power but not a great one," functioning as a "rigged casino" without property rights or the rule of law, which is increasingly deterring foreign direct investment.

In today's episode, David Musnick dives into the concept of cognitive distortions, those faulty ways of thinking that can hold us back from healing and create barriers in our health journeys. Drawing on the influential work of Dr. David Burns, Dr. Musnick breaks down the most common cognitive distortions like negative forecasting, black-and-white thinking, labeling, and catastrophizing. You'll learn how these thought patterns manifest in patients, the impact they have on outcomes, and, most importantly, practical strategies to identify and counteract them in clinical practice or your own life.

Henry Sokolski notes Senator John Kennedy has emerged as a dogged opponent of granting Saudi Arabia enrichment authority, labeling it a "bad idea." The agreement will automatically go into force within 90 legislative days unless Congress passes a veto-proof resolution against it. Kennedy's vocal stance may rally other senators to stop the package, potentially forcing the White House to renegotiate the deal to prevent spreading dangerous nuclear capabilities.

In this episode, Dr. K and Kruti sit down with Lucas and Ory, a couple navigating an anxious-avoidant relationship while backpacking in Peru. Breaking down a recent conflict where they were both severely sick in a hotel room with mismatched needs, Dr. K provides a masterclass on how to navigate deadlocks, stop over-pathologizing yourself, and understand the hidden templates driving your partner's reactions. What to expect in this episode: The Anxious-Avoidant Dynamic: Why this pairing is notoriously known as a "match made in hell," but is actually the perfect karmic friction required for profound spiritual and personal growth. Conflicting Templates: How a simple action—like wanting to watch a video alone—maps to completely different emotional meanings (a healthy need for independence vs. a painful signal of abandonment) depending on your attachment style. The Danger of Over-Indexing: Why we shouldn't treat every single argument as a deep psychological issue to solve, and why sometimes you just have to "take the L" when both partners are physically sick, exhausted, and naturally regressing to old habits. Quantifying Your Needs: Practical communication tools for deadlocked couples, including rating your immediate needs on a scale of 1-10, and actively assessing how empty your partner's "tank" is before asking for support. Labeling the Flare-Up: How naming your attachment trigger out loud (e.g., explicitly stating, "My anxious attachment is flaring today") can remove confusion and help your partner understand exactly what you need. Over-Pathologizing Normal Needs: A deep dive into Lucas's specific guilt, exploring how recovering avoidants often demonize their perfectly normal need for space because they are terrified of failing their partner. The Illusion of Responsibility: Why true security requires learning to let your partner fall apart without internalizing their emotional pain as your personal failure, allowing you to pick them back up without drowning alongside them.

More Meat Companies Join USDA's Product Of USA Program The USDA has added 10 more meat and poultry companies to its Product of USA labeling program. The program, launched earlier this year, allows companies to label products as "Product of USA" only if the animals were born, raised, slaughtered, and processed in the United States. Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins says the label gives consumers confidence they're buying truly American-raised products while supporting U.S. ranchers, processors, and rural communities. Among the latest companies joining the program are Harris Ranch, One World Beef, Upper Iowa Beef, American Foods Group, Agri Beef, FPL Food, Wholestone Farms, and Harrison's Poultry. USDA says expanding participation in the program is part of the Trump administration's effort to strengthen domestic food production and support independent livestock producers and meat processors. REFERENCE: https://www.meatpoultry.com/articles/33780-product-of-usa-label-program-adds-10-meat-companies Legislation Introduced To Break Up Meatpacking Monopolies A group of House Democrats has introduced legislation they say would increase competition in the U.S. meatpacking industry. The bill targets the nation's four largest beef processors—Cargill, JBS, Tyson Foods, and National Beef—which lawmakers say control about 85 percent of the U.S. beef market. The proposal would limit market concentration, prevent large companies from controlling multiple major meat sectors, strengthen oversight of pricing practices, and provide financial assistance to help smaller processors and farmer cooperatives expand. Supporters say the legislation would help independent farmers, ranchers, and consumers by increasing competition in the meat industry.

You've been narrating everything. Labeling. Reading. Filling the room with language. And nothing seems to be sticking.That's because your words only land when your child's attention and yours are on the same thing, in the same moment. It's called shared attention — and you're already doing it without knowing how much it matters.In this episode I unpack what shared attention actually looks like between 12 and 24 months, the difference between a request and a shared moment, the connection to autism screening, and the one shift that makes your words actually land. Plus the discipline of the wait — counting to five so your child's brain has room to respond.One skill. One shift. Two minutes a day.Helpful links:▶ Watch Talking Toddlers on YouTube:https://www.youtube.com/@HyerLearning

Matt and Michael wrestle with a question that has been hanging over both of them. Why have they stopped paying attention to the news? Is that a good thing or a bad thing? They land on the idea of a Cartesian crisis. Nobody trusts anything anymore. Every headline is met with an actually from someone who thinks they have the real truth. They explore how skepticism can lead to nihilism or to wisdom, and why character assassination has replaced actual argument. Then things get interesting. The conversation turns to what it means to truly love someone versus simply labeling them, why we have lost the definition of racism, and how dress codes and tattoos are really just signals we send to the world about who we want to be. They contrast David Bowie and Bob Dylan as two models of subversion, one grounded and one spinning off into the void. They talk about Jung, individuation, and why growing up means learning to reincorporate what you once rebelled against. And they end with a story about a fake recruiter that captures just how deep the trust crisis really goes. Cheers y'all

Are Energy Drinks Under Attack? Inside the FDA's New Caffeine Crackdown

Last week, I invited you into a simple but powerful experiment:What if you are not your thoughts or your feelings?If you haven't listened to that episode yet, I'd encourage you to start there. It lays the foundation for everything we're exploring today.Because once you begin to see that you are the observer—not the constant stream of thoughts, emotions, memories, and sensations—the next question naturally becomes:How do I actually stay connected to that wiser part of myself when life gets busy... or emotionally overwhelming?That's exactly what we're diving into in this week's encore episode.I'll introduce you to one of my favorite metaphors: the School Bus Between Your Ears.It may sound simple, but this analogy has transformed the way thousands of my clients relate to their minds.Instead of fighting your thoughts...Instead of trying to get rid of uncomfortable emotions...You'll learn how to become the wise bus driver instead of getting pulled around by every passenger on the bus.Episode timestamps00:57 — Why this episode builds on last week's experiment04:57 — The question everyone asks: "How do I connect with my true self?"05:43 — The School Bus metaphor explained07:04 — Who the passengers really are08:40 — Becoming the bus driver instead of the passengers09:46 — Why chasing happiness keeps us stuck11:20 — What happens when you leave the driver's seat13:58 — A simple practice to notice without reacting15:12 — Labeling the "passengers" on your bus16:27 — How this builds emotional steadiness over timeThe goal isn't to have a bus full of perfect passengers.The goal is to remember who's driving.When you stop trying to control every thought and emotion, and instead learn to notice them with curiosity, you create space for clarity, wisdom, and freedom.------If today's episode resonated with you...Many high-achieving professionals spend years trying to "fix" their thoughts when the real transformation comes from learning how to relate to them differently.If you'd like to continue exploring nervous system regulation, emotional resilience, and practical tools for staying grounded under pressure, I'd love to invite you to join my free community:Relationship Mastery for Physicianshttps://www.skool.com/relationshipmastery4physiciansOr if you'd like to learn more about working with us, simply reply to this email or reach out to admin@drkavethasun.com.

In today's episode we reference the following resources:Should I be induced? Evidence on the ARRIVE TrialPlanning Your Successful VBAC**********Welcome to the June Q&A! In today's episode, we begin with a listener who has some things to say about the term VBAC. Our questions begin with one from a new mother whose enthusiastic in-laws are eager to babysit her exclusively breastfed baby. The conversation is less about breastfeeding and more about expectations, trust and boundaries.Next, we answer one we've never been asked: "What do contractions actually feel like?" How's it possible this hasn't come up before?!Then, we discuss a common late-pregnancy scenario: a routine ultrasound that leads to concerns about a "big baby." When a healthy 38-week pregnant woman is told her baby's abdomen is measuring large, how much weight should she give to that information? As always, we finish with Quickies, covering cervical lips, high-lipase milk, pacifiers, coffee during pregnancy, milk blebs, antidepressants, swaddling, wake windows, dates, sex, retained placenta, induction, creatine, and a few personal questions about coffee preferences and family size.Have a question for a future Q&A? We'd love to hear from you. Leave us a voicemail and join the conversation! Call us 24/7 at 802-GET-DOWN!

Americans are drinking less wine, but growers say there's another reason demand is down for California grapes. It's a law that allows U.S. wineries to include cheaper imported wines in products labeled as American. On Tuesday, the State Senate will vote on a bill sponsored by California grape growers that aims to close that international blending loophole. Reporter: Tina Caputo California is suing the Trump administration over its latest attempt to undo Clean Air Act waivers, which govern many of the state's auto emission standards.

Joseph Sternberg explains the impending depletion of the Social Security Trust Fund, labeling it an accounting gimmick. He clarifies that the program is a pay-as-you-go system where current workers fund retirees. Sternbergdiscusses the political difficulty of reform, suggesting private accounts as a viable alternative for younger generations. (5)

As athletes, it is easy to label a day as either good or bad based on how you performed. But most days are not that simple. There is usually some good and some bad mixed together. And even when things do not go the way you wanted, there is still something you can learn from the experience. Work with me!

**Funding the Enemy: The Shocking Continuity of U.S. Cash Infusions to Iran and the Taliban** In this hard-hitting segment, the hosts expose a deeply troubling pattern within American foreign policy: the continuous funding of hostile regimes and designated terror groups. The monologue begins by tearing into the Trump administration's newly proposed maritime framework with Iran, drawing explicit, unfavorable parallels to Barack Obama's 2015 JCPOA. Labeling the deal a "disastrous" mistake and a cash-for-nothing transfer, the commentary highlights how temporary sanctions relief allows Tehran to cash in on billions of dollars in backed-up oil reserves. Despite Iran's record of over thirty red-line violations and constant ceasefire strikes, the U.S. receives only a vague "framework" to have a conversation about enriched uranium stockpiles. Shifting focus from the Middle East to Afghanistan, the commentary dives into an equally stunning revelation regarding the Taliban. Despite a 20-year war that cost $2.3 trillion and claimed 2,456 American lives, the U.S. government continues to send $40 million a week to Afghanistan. The host calls out Senate Majority Leader John Thune for blocking a vote on the House-passed "Defund the Taliban Act," accusing him of outright lying on the record about his awareness of the bill. Citing warnings from intelligence analysts, the segment details how the Taliban is currently protecting reconstituted Al-Qaeda and ISIS terror camps. Whether through sanctions relief to Iran or direct financial aid to Kabul, the host delivers a scathing indictment of a system where foreign adversaries are built up "brick by brick" at the direct expense of American service members. The episode wraps up with a lighter look at domestic business news, touching on the massive financial buzz surrounding a SpaceX IPO.

Victoria Coates addresses the Pentagon's decision to list major Chinese companies like BYD and Alibaba as security risks due to their military ties. She argues for clear country-of-origin labeling on products to inform American consumers. Furthermore, Coates criticizes the Biden administration for prioritizing climate goals over addressing China's use of forced labor in the solar panel supply chain. (4)

Gaius and Germanicus critique the SpaceX IPO, labeling it a grand "grift" comparable to the speculative railroad booms of the 1870s. They warn of a stupendous transfer of wealth from ordinary people to the elite, fueled by asset bubbles in AI and space energy, while national wealth inequality reaches levels reminiscent of pre-revolutionary France.

Season 7, Episode 6: How did a former real estate analyst turn the pain of building pitch decks into one of CRE's fastest-growing AI companies? Today, we sit down with Sammy Greenwall, co-founder and CEO of Henry AI, to discuss how artificial intelligence is transforming commercial real estate workflows. Sammy shares his journey from college basketball to helping scale Lev into a $100M venture-backed company before leaving to build Henry AI. The conversation covers the inefficiencies of traditional brokerage workflows, why Henry focuses on delivering outcomes instead of software, and how AI is automating offering memorandums, BOVs, and other time-intensive tasks. Sammy also explains why local brokerage data may be more valuable than national databases, how "humans in the loop" remain critical to adoption, and where he sees the future of AI in commercial real estate.

Chuck Todd opens with what he calls the unmistakable arrival of a "YOLO caucus" in the Senate — a growing number of congressional Republicans who are simply done capitulating to Trump, evidenced by John Thune publicly declaring there's no need to "weaponize" the DNI position and by the broader sense that the non-Trump part of the GOP is openly preparing to move on. He argues Trump is doing everything possible to accelerate his own lame duck status: he's politicizing America's 250th anniversary in ways that genuinely alarm vulnerable Republicans, he failed to engage any of the former presidents in the 250th planning, and he's creating Marie Antoinette-style "let them eat cake" optics by celebrating himself at a moment of real economic pain for ordinary Americans. Trump's treatment of CNN's Kaitlan Collins was outrageous, his cranky behavior with the press is a tell that things aren't going well, and his decision to formally nominate Todd Blanche for Attorney General has essentially zero chance of confirmation — Blanche has burned his bridges in the Senate and the doomed January 6th weaponization fund was reportedly his idea in the first place. It's almost as if Trump is begging to put a neon "I'm a lame duck" sign on the White House. Chuck then turns to California, where ballots are still being counted at a pace that he says is actively eroding public trust in the democratic process itself — the state desperately needs to find a way to count faster — and notes that CA-06 was drawn as a safe Democratic seat but the top two finishers right now are both Republicans, while Spencer Pratt looks safer in the LA mayoral race than Steve Hilton does in the governor's race. He closes with a fascinating analysis of the Graham Platner situation in Maine, where Janet Mills' decision to leave her name on the ballot has created a Nikki Haley-style protest vote opportunity for nervous Democrats — Mills didn't bow out in disgrace so her floor is high, and if she pulls 25% or more in the primary, Chuck predicts very real conversations about replacing Platner will begin. The number to watch is ME-02: if Platner underperforms there, it's the clearest red flag that a candidate Democrats once viewed as a slam-dunk pickup is now in serious trouble. Then, Todd Ricketts — Chicago Cubs co-owner and founder of Freespoke, the search engine that labels news sources with media bias ratings — joins the Chuck Toddcast for a wide-ranging conversation that bridges the increasingly intertwined worlds of media, technology, and professional sports. Ricketts makes the case that when people are given genuinely good information from across the ideological spectrum, they tend to arrive at good answers — and that Freespoke's mission is to present all sides and then get out of the way, rather than letting ad sales determine what news you see. He pushes back on the idea that the market alone can solve the data privacy crisis, arguing data may eventually need to be regulated like a utility but that nothing changes until there's a major "event" that creates real public groundswell. Ricketts is candid about Freespoke's challenges — paywalls remain a real obstacle, the left/right labeling is imperfect and done by outside groups, and the political landscape itself is shifting in ways that scramble the traditional categories . He observes that podcasts have become a primary news source because people clearly hunger for long-form content with nuance, that politicians are now visibly afraid of giving long answers because they might get clipped, and that legacy media still doesn't seem to understand why its audience has migrated elsewhere. The second half pivots into the business of running a baseball team, and Ricketts brings the same straight-talking pragmatism to MLB's looming economic crisis. He argues you cannot sell a salary cap to MLB owners without genuine revenue sharing, because if the league itself isn't competitive then everyone eventually loses — including the owners writing the biggest checks. Players currently take roughly 48% of revenue, a number he expects to climb to around 52% in the next deal, and Ricketts is honest that half of MLB's franchises are still essentially mom-and-pop operations even as private equity money is rapidly entering the sport. He talks about the difficulty of running any sports team in 2026 because fans genuinely feel like they own the franchise, why ownership groups are increasingly building entire entertainment districts around their ballparks to control the fan experience end-to-end, and the painful broadcast rights question every team is wrestling with: fans have cut the cord, the old TV economics no longer work, and ownership has to be flexible with new broadcast partners even as they ask themselves whether season ticket holders should be entitled to free access to every game. Ricketts closes by laying out what would qualify as a disappointing season for the Cubs — a sober assessment from an owner who has watched the economics of his sport, and the media landscape his business depends on, both transform at the same time. Finally, Chuck answers listeners’ questions in the “Ask Chuck” segment and spends a few minutes reflecting on the life of his grandmother who passed away this week.

(2) Continuing their debate, Gaius and Germanicus debunk the "Thucydides Trap," labeling it a modern "literary invention" rather than a historical law. They argue the Peloponnesian War was not an inevitable clash but was triggered by Pericles baiting Sparta into conflict. Germanicus critiques the theory for creating a self-fulfilling prophecy lacking scientific basis. They contrast the long-term endurance of civilizations like Persia and China with the transient dominance of Greek city-states. Ultimately, they observe that Sparta's supremacy ended not through total destruction, but through the profound battlefield shame of being defeated by the city of Thebes.1717

FDR declares an "unlimited national emergency" in May 1941, placing the country on a wartime footing and targeting dissenters. He begins labeling Lindbergh and America First supporters as "copperheads" and "fifth columnists," effectively questioning their loyalty. Lindbergh's reputation suffers a fatal blow after a speech in Des Moines, where he identifies the British, the Jews, and the administration as those pushing for war. Branded an anti-Semite and Nazi sympathizer, he becomes politically radioactive. This controversy leads to the decline and eventual disbandment of the America First Committee as war becomes imminent.

Jennifer's book, Last Light Over Galveston, centers on women's empowerment during the turn of the century, following a young woman who defies her wealthy family in search of purpose, only to find herself stranded in Galveston as a monster hurricane bears down. Jennifer reveals how writing fiction based on real historical events gives readers the empathy that dry textbooks simply cannot. From her journalism roots to her life as an Air Force wife abroad, Jennifer brings an outsider's curiosity and an insider's discipline to every story she tells. Tune in to hear an excerpt of the book to when the character Kathleen arrives in Galveston, contemplating a decision as she arrives at the ocean.What You'll Learn in This Episode: Why historical fiction is one of the most powerful tools for helping readers connect emotionally with real historical events, and how award-winning author Jennifer Wright uses storytelling to bring the human side of history to life in ways that journalism and textbooks simply cannot.How women's empowerment in the early 1900s was both revolutionary and dangerous, and what it cost a young woman to walk away from wealth and family in pursuit of purpose and passion during the turn of the century.What the research process looks like for a fiction writing project rooted in a real natural disaster, including how firsthand newspaper accounts from 1900 shaped the world of The Last Light Over Galveston.Why the period voice of historical fiction is one of the most challenging craft elements to master, and how collaboration with a skilled editor protects the authenticity of the story.Subscribe to Reenita's Storytelling Den on Substack for free at https://substack.com/@reenitahora and to her YouTube channel to watch the video version of this episode! https://www.youtube.com/@reenymalCheck out her website to stay up-to-date on events, book releases and more! https://reenita.com/TIMESTAMPS:  00:00 Jennifer Wright, award-winning author, introduces Kathleen, a wealthy woman craving purpose beyond marriage at the turn of the century02:27 Jennifer shares her journey from journalism to marriage to historical fiction and explains why historical storytelling can reveal the human side of history07:30 The plot of Last Light Over Galveston unfolds: women's empowerment, family conflict, and survival during the Galveston Hurricane10:30 Jennifer discusses the different time periods she chooses to write about and how books are marketed15:30 Jennifer and Reenita discuss the challenge of period voice and how editors protect the authenticity of historical fiction18:34 Jennifer Wright reads a snippet of the prologue of Last Light Over Galveston, of character Kathleen's arrival in GalvestonKEY TAKEAWAYS: Historical fiction has a unique power to draw readers into events they might otherwise dismiss. Jennifer Wright's work proves that when you place a fully realized human being inside a natural disaster, readers stop seeing history as a subject and start feeling it as an experience.Jennifer Wright's creative process begins with six months of deep research into a historical event before a single word of fiction is written. Her ability to compress that into three months under a publishing contract for Last Light Over Galveston speaks to both her discipline and her instincts as a fiction writing professional.Labeling books by age category, such as young adult or new adult, can quietly shrink an award-winning author's readership. Wright argues that a compelling protagonist transcends age and that character development should be the draw, not a marketing bracket.ABOUT THE GUEST: Jennifer Wright has been writing since middle school and eventually earned a master's degree in journalism from Indiana University. However, it took only a few short months of covering the local news to realize that writing fiction is much better for the soul–and definitely way more fun. A born-and-bred Hoosier, she was swept off her feet by an Air Force pilot and has spent the past decade traveling the world and, every few years, attempting to fit old curtains into the windows of a new home. She currently resides in New Mexico with her husband and two children.Her debut novel, 'If It Rains,' was nominated for a Kipp Award, and her second novel, 'Come Down Somewhere,' was a 2023 Carol Award finalist. She is a member of ACFW (American Christian Fiction Writers).Jennifer Wright - FacebookJennifer Wright - InstagramJennifer Wright - WebsiteLast Light over Galveston: by Wright, Jennifer L. - AmazonAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

This episode is brought to you by Ecom Breakthrough Consulting, where I help seven figure companies grow to eight figures and beyond. Listen, Pat, I started my E-comm business back in 2015, and it took me seven years to grow it to an eight figure brand. There were a lot of times that I struggled with the challenge of knowing whether my business could actually succeed financially, or if my brand could actually become a real well-known brand, or even myself as a leader. Whether I had the abilities and capabilities to lead a team and actually manage a group of people? Sure.

Pat, as a seasoned entrepreneur with a focus on eCommerce, in 2014, he struck a deal with Robert Herjavec on the Emmy Award winning show Shark Tank.

During that time, Pat has done licensing deals with Dreamworks, the NCAA, the NFL and Disney, and in 2015, he struck up a relationship with Mark, the founder of Quiet Light Brokerage, and continued, eventually leading him to becoming an M&A advisor. So welcome to the show, Pat.Pat 00:02:04  Thanks. I appreciate you having me.Josh 00:02:06  Pat. I watched your Shark Tank episode and loved, you know, everything you kind of went through in that episode.Josh 00:02:15  You ended up doing a deal with Robert who who first kind of went out pretty early on, at least in the episode. And then he comes back in and kind of swoops up the deal. And at the last moment, how was that experience being on Shark Tank and going through that?Pat 00:02:31  Yeah, it's something I've talked a lot about it over the past few years because, as one of the people that likes on the speaking circuit with me likes to call me the one of the OGs in Shark Tank because I'm on season five. They have so many seasons now, I'm like, I can't be old at everything. I hate that, but, I mean, it's it's a difficult process in the very beginning. You have to submit several videos and a lot of written documentation, a lot of due diligence. And, you know, I was turned down in season one or season two or something like that. And then they called me back as season five was coming because they were ramping so much, and I was one of the people that came down to the very end and had to fly out there and do my pitch in front of the producers to even see if they could keep me.Pat 00:03:09  So, I did that. And then it aired in 2014 and it was awesome. I mean, the show was going, I mean, my, my time was going poorly in there for like 80% of it. The, you know, you're in there like an hour and 15 minutes. Most people don't realize that. And it's cut to eight. So for most of the time it wasn't going very well. But the end was pretty good. Yeah.Josh 00:03:27  Yeah, that's that's amazing. How was it, you know, doing a deal with Robert and what kind of his involvement been since you did that deal with him?Pat 00:03:36  Well, the deals that you do on Shark Tank and are are definitely theory and practice things. You know, one of you come up with a deal and then it closes or it doesn't. I mean, a lot of people that I talk to and I'm involved in a pretty deep Shark Tank group. You know, most of those deals don't close as you see them. And really, truly most deals don't close, period.Pat 00:03:55  you know, our deal. We did not do the financial terms we saw on the show. We just did a relationship and we didn't do any kind of money transfer, just a small equity portion to be able to help. So the relationships been mor...

Rachel Kapp, M.Ed., BCET, and Stephanie Pitts, M.Ed., BCET explore a common concern they hear from parents: the fear that seeking support for their learner will lead to stigma—within their family, cultural community, or even in how their child sees themselves. They unpack why these fears are so prevalent and why they make complete sense, especially for families navigating cultural messages around achievement, privacy, and struggle. They also reframe the conversation to demonstrate that getting help is not a sign that something is “wrong,” but that it can be viewed as a proactive step toward giving learners the tools they need to thrive.

H.W. Brands describes FDR declaring an "unlimited national emergency" in May 1941, labeling Lindbergh and the America First Committee as "copperheads" and "fifth columnists." Following a misrepresented incident involving the USS Greer, Lindbergh's reputation collapses after a Des Moines speech blaming the British, the Jews, and the Rooseveltadministration for pushing the U.S. toward war — branded an anti-Semite and Nazi stooge, he faces political exile as his organization disbands.

H.W. Brands explains how FDR seeks to modify the Neutrality Acts as war intensifies, while Lindbergh and several senators distrust the president's incremental march toward war. FDR counters by labeling critics "isolationists" and "ignorant," while carefully shaping public opinion. The rapid fall of France in 1940 vindicates Lindbergh's stance for some, though it leads FDR to initiate the destroyers-for-bases deal with a pleading Winston Churchill. (3)

11. Stalin systematically marginalized Trotsky by suppressing his speeches and removing his allies from the Kremlin. By labeling Trotsky a "gravedigger of the revolution," Stalin used him as a spectre of failure to justify total control and internal purges of his own peers. (11)1928 ALMAY-ALTAI WITH NATALYA
