The NCHA Super Stakes delivered unforgettable runs, breakout performances, and plenty of chaos inside the cowbox — I am joined by my good pal, 'The Louis Vuitton Vaquero' aka NCHA Hall of Famer, Jesse Lennox to break it all down. From Kenny Platt's historic dominance in the 5/6 Open to Michael Cooper's clutch performances under pressure, this episode dives deep into the horses, the strategy, and the personalities shaping the future of cutting. Jesse gives a behind-the-scenes look at what really happens in the cowbox, how elite trainers read cattle, and why the next generation of riders like Cade Shepard, Colt Moore, Cooper Clark, and Ryan Rapp are changing the game. They also unpack the rise of Metallic Rey Mink offspring, the evolution of modern horse training, and the subtle details—like "watching a cow's nostril" — that separate great horsemen from everyone else. Along the way, things go completely off the rails with harmonica stories, busking on the Granbury square, Backstreet Boys encounters, celebrity cuttings, and the ongoing rise of the legendary band "Low Expectations." This episode is equal parts cutting horse masterclass and locker room comedy—and one of the most entertaining recaps yet. Enjoy the show! This episode is brought to you by Kerry Kelley Bits and Spurs, Kimes Ranch and Bluebonnet Feeds. 

It's time to true the books. Our accountants respond to recent listener comments, review the most recent sweep of the Giants by the dbags, and take time to review the team after two full months (i.e. 54 games) of the season. It's not good, you know that. But they try to be funny. Maybe they're make you laugh.On the cocktail side of things, today Ben is drinking a Karl the Fog Negroni while Matthew is drinking a Low Expectations.

Gabe Evans' Warning. Tensions ignite as Colorado's political battles, urban unrest, and sports heartbreak explode in a must-hear hour of Rush to Reason. Guest host Andy Peth and Congressman Gabe Evans dissect the nail-biting fight for Colorado's 8th District and control of Congress, exposing the high-stakes warfare over rising costs, runaway regulations, and a state on the brink. The conversation erupts as Andy and Tanner Coleman tackle America's urban crisis—homelessness, teen crime waves, addiction, and the fallout of weak leadership in cities from Denver to D.C. Is public order spiraling out of control, or can bold action turn the tide? Then, Denver's sports dreams crash as the Broncos, Nuggets, and Avalanche suffer devastating playoff blows. Is the city cursed or just facing one heartbreak too many? Guest Timestamps 1:25 — Gabe Evans — https://electgabeevans.com HOUR 2 Democrats And The Bigotry Of Low Expectations. What Was The Media Hiding About Biden? Media secrets, election scandals, and government fraud explode in a can't-miss second hour of Rush to Reason. Guest host Andy Peth and Jerzee Joe pull back the curtain on stories the mainstream media seems to miss, delving into allegations of news cover-ups, political protection, and suppressed scandals. The debate heats up as sanctuary state policies, media bias, and alleged Medicaid fraud take center stage. A fiery defense of voter ID laws from a Chicago woman electrifies the hour, while Andy and Joe confront what they call the “bigotry of low expectations.” The pair raises provocative questions about the Biden White House, mysterious executive orders, and who's really calling the shots in Washington. The hour ends with a hard look at soaring Medicaid costs, taxpayer outrage, and the specter of fraud in sprawling government programs. Humor and outrage mix with sharp commentary as distrust in America's institutions hits a boiling point. Guest Timestamps 1:13 — Jerzee Joe — https://jerzeejoe.com HOUR 3 The Real Battle Inside The GOP. Why Massie and MTG Are Frustrating Conservatives. Colorado Republican infighting erupts in Hour 3 as Andy Peth and Eli Bremer expose the high-stakes clash between ideological purity and real-world political strategy. With the party's future hanging in the balance, they ask: How will Republicans move the needle? The debate intensifies with sharp takes on Colorado's assembly-versus-primary battles and national figures like Thomas Massie and Marjorie Taylor Greene, whom Eli slams for putting grandstanding over results. Andy challenges activists to grasp the brutal reality for Republicans in swing districts. Andy and Eli discuss a path to real conservative wins as the hour ends with a stark warning: conservatives obsessed with “perfect votes” risk handing power to the opposition. True leadership, Eli argues, means strategy, compromise, and coalition-building, because victory requires more than ideals alone. Guest Timestamps 1:12 — Eli Bremer https://x.com/elibremer

On 13th March, Sir Martyn Oliver defended robust criticism from many in the profession that the new OFSTED framework unfairly penalises schools in disadvantaged areas. He says context should not trump outcomes. Tony talks to his guests about their opinions on the comments and the framework.

Why do Republicans keep winning elections — but conservative policies never seem to flow? In this explosive episode, I break down the biggest problem in American politics today: the conservative movement's shockingly low expectations for Republican leaders. I begin with analyzing Trump's five priorities and the missed opportunities and low expectations. I'm joined by Texas state Rep. Brian Harrison, who exposes how many Republican politicians campaign as conservative insurgents. But once in power, they empower Democrat policies, expand government, and then demand voters support them anyway to “beat the Democrats” — the very same Democrats they've empowered! If conservatives want real change, they must raise their expectations and demand accountability from their own party. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

"I am like you. I am no better than you. I'm a 960 SAT guy... you've never seen me read a speech, because I cannot read a speech. Maybe the wrong business to be in."Gov. Gavin Newsom (D-CA) attempts to relate to a black audience by telling them he got a mediocre SAT score and can't read very well. This goes over about as well as you assume it did.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

California governor Gavin Newsome is being slammed by the left and right in a new tone-deaf pitch to black voters, touting his low 960 SAT score

In today's episode of The Alan Sanders Show, Alan dives into the "soft bigotry of low expectations", from Gavin Newsom's pandering in Georgia to white liberals dumping down speech and code-switching for minority audiences, backed by a 2018 Yale study. He contrasts this patronizing mindset with Trump's consistent, high-expectation approach. Plus, explosive hypocrisy in blue cities: NYC's Zohran Mamdani demands multiple forms of ID (including photos and Social Security card) to shovel snow during a blizzard, yet Democrats fiercely oppose voter ID laws. We also unpack ongoing tariff policies and their impact on America First economics. Plus, a gold medal win for USA Men's Hockey and the Left hates, once again, their display of patriotism and love of our country.

Menners and Stuart MacGill break down the latest from the T20 World Cup, headlined by Australia entering the tournament without many of their traditional big names and what it means for their chances. The hosts analyse Nepal's near-upset of England, strong performances from Pakistan, West Indies, India and New Zealand, and why finishing games under pressure separates elite teams from the rest.

Ravi and Idrees Kahloon start with the current Supreme Court showdown: can a president raise tariffs alone, or does Congress have to sign off? They unpack why the Court might push back—and what that could mean for future presidents. Then they turn to immigration, where the U.S. may soon have more people leaving than arriving, with big effects on jobs and Social Security. Finally, they dig into education: why test scores are falling even as grades rise, and how places like Mississippi and New Orleans are turning things around by raising standards and focusing on real learning. – The Inconvenient Success of New Orleans Schools (The 74, 8/25/25) The Court Must Decide If the Constitution Means What It Says  (The Atlantic, 11/5/25) America's Impending Population Collapse (The Atlantic, 10/29/25)America Is Sliding Toward Illiteracy (The Atlantic, 10/14/25) – Leave us a voicemail with your thoughts on the show! 201-305-0084⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Follow Ravi at @RaviMGupta Notes from this episode are also available on Substack: https://thelostdebate.substack.com/ Read more from Ravi on Substack: https://realravigupta.substack.com  Follow The Branch at @thebranchmedia Listen to more episodes of Lost Debate on Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-lost-debate/id1591300785 Listen to more episodes of Lost Debate on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/7xR9pch9DrQDiZfGB5oF0F Listen to Where the Schools Went: https://thebranchmedia.org/show/where-the-schools-went/

The Freedom of Low Expectations | Tullian Tchividjian | "Humans Being, Part 04"Psalm 34:18

The biggest barrier in your child's education isn't Autism, Down syndrome, or even learning disabilities. It's low expectations. When a 12-year-old is handed board books or toddler math, the hidden message is: “This is all I think you can do.” That belief shapes motivation, behavior, trust, and hope for the future. In this episode of Non Linear Learning, Dr. Vaish Sarathy unpacks the true cost of low expectations and shares the #1 shift to break free: speaking to your child with age appropriate language. You'll hear: Why “presuming competence” isn't enough How low expectations create a vicious cycle of poor behavior and lost trust ONE Simple way to change this and expand your child's thought process

On this week's Talkhouse Podcast we've got a pair of singer-songwriters who came up in the social media age, and who, as you'll hear, have leaned on each other for support as their careers have taken off. It's Girl in Red and Gigi Perez. Girl in Red is the name under which Norwegian singer Marie Ullven started making intimate, sometimes sad bedroom recordings back in 2016 or so. Some of those songs, like 2018's “I Wanna Be Your Girlfriend” really connected with people, and she became something of an icon, especially to young gay women. Her sound has grown over the years and Ulven has embraced bigger opportunities, including opening shows for Taylor Swift—it doesn't get a lot bigger than that. Her last album, the hilariously titled I'm Doing it Again, Baby! was released last year, and as you'll hear in this conversation, Ulven is stepping into acting as well: She'll star in a film called Low Expectations, which she filmed earlier this year. Check out Girl in Red's “Hemingway” right here. Gigi Perez is another fantastic songwriter and performer whose “Sailor Song” was everywhere last summer, and for good reason: It's simple and gorgeous and undeniably catchy. Perez first started writing songs a few years ago in the wake of her sister's passing, and she's both created some incredible music and played big shows—including opening for Coldplay—in the past few years. Perez's debut album At the Beach, in Every Life came out earlier this year, and it's a thoughtful, sometimes uplifting, sometimes heartbreaking set of really personal songs. Check out “Sailor Song” right here. In this conversation, these two resilient ladies get into some real talk, touching on Girl in Red's recent stint in rehab and her upcoming movie role, the inevitable comedown after a big tour, songwriting camps, and Perez's favorite movie of all time. Enjoy. Thanks for listening to the Talkhouse Podcast, and thanks to Girl in Red and Gigi Perez for chatting.

EP:102Kelsey Erickson, Senior Director of Athlete Health, Engagement, and Experience at USA Cycling.From growing up as an anxious teenager who couldn't spend a night away from home, to moving abroad, earning a PhD, and leading athlete welfare in a male-dominated sport — Kelsey's story is one of curiosity, courage, and refusing to be boxed in.In this conversation, we dive into:Why she never had a “five-year plan” and how that opened unexpected doorsWhat sport taught her about resilience, hard work, and redefining successHow she turned OCD and early struggles into empathy and strengthNavigating male-dominated environments and why being “the only woman in the room” can be an assetThe importance of honesty, curiosity, and showing up — even when you don't have it all figured outKelsey's story is proof that leaning into opportunities, embracing failure, and staying curious can lead to an extraordinary and impactful life.Key TakeawaysYou don't need a fixed plan to build a meaningful career — curiosity and saying “yes” can be enough.Success isn't black and white. Redefine it based on your values, effort, and relationships.Vulnerability and empathy aren't weaknesses — they're strengths that create trust and leadership.Women in male-dominated industries don't need to shrink; their perspective is their power.True confidence comes from being comfortable with failing, laughing at yourself, and showing up anyway.Timestamps0:00 – Michelle introduces Kelsey and the meaning of She Who Dares Wins0:29 – Kelsey on forging her own path without a plan3:00 – From anxious teen to athlete: first steps out of her comfort zone6:00 – Moving abroad, studying, and saying “yes” to new opportunities9:00 – The underdog mindset and redefining success13:00 – Current role at USA Cycling and tackling sensitive issues in sport19:20 – Being the only woman in the room: challenges and opportunities25:30 – Curiosity as the driving force in career and life decisions27:00 – What she'd tell her 14-year-old self about trust and showing up31:00 – A defining “failure” that shaped her career in research36:00 – The unseen side of career struggles and hundreds of job rejections39:00 – Why confidence comes from being okay with mistakes and imperfection43:00 – Vulnerability, crying in a van, and why honesty matters at work45:20 – Michelle gifts Kelsey the She Who Dares Wins hoodie Hosted on Acast.

Dr Boyce speaks with Sheri Mitchell and BJ Joyce about failing black relationships and the cost to the black community.

When you receive help, do you perceive it as a transactional burden or as a gift? How do you support the people, ideas, and art you admire? Do you feel disappointed when they go against your views, or do you willingly allow them the freedom to grow and evolve into whatever they might become, despite potential disagreements? https://youtu.be/Ueyw7nSI6jc Last year, during a Haven Phrase Maze exploration around the prompt “The Money Changed Everything,” we discussed what makes a gift a gift. We asked whether, once given, the giver of a true gift can have any justifiable feelings about what is done with it. Or if a hope or expectation turns a gift into a conditional transaction. For example, when we give someone a present, we might expect them to use it in a particular way (and not to sell it on, exchange it, or give it to someone else, for an acceptable time at least). What impact does this obligation have on the receiver? How does this relate to our engagement with artists, public figures, and one another? Conditional vs Unconditional Support Are we conditional patrons, offering support only when we agree with the other person? Or are we unconditional patrons, standing by them because we believe in their how and why, even when we disagree with the substance of their particular "what"? This is on my mind because of a comment I received on a recent YouTube video. Someone explained why they disagreed with something I had said, which is fair enough. But I was struck by the intended sucker punch at the end of the comment... “Unsubscribed.” That word was like a weapon; it felt like an attempt at punishment and behaviour modification. It focused on the surface rather than the source. I know that subscribing isn't a gift, but I couldn't help but wonder if a similar mechanism exists in the distinction between conditional and unconditional gift-giving. This is why I don't tend to ask people directly to subscribe to my podcast, videos, or social media. I want it to be a choice, not a favour or transaction. I leave it for people to come and go as they like, with no pressure either way. If the time comes for us to go separate ways, that's fine. It happens. We don't owe one another anything. We've just had a nice ride along together for a bit. Unconditional Patronage and Disagreement Do we tie our support for people to WHAT they think or HOW and WHY they reach their conclusions? Think about the creators, artists, or figures you follow and admire. Do you find yourself withdrawing support when they say or do something you disagree with? What would it look like to support them unconditionally, focusing on their how and why rather than a particular what? Over the years, I have come to support people whose WAY of thinking I respect and value. Most people I follow express views I disagree with occasionally (in some cases, a lot), but I sincerely appreciate the how and why behind their ideas. The process inspires me as much as, if not more than, the outcome. It's only if their values (the drive of their why) change that I tend to consider whether or not I want to continue supporting them. It can happen. There is a flip-side to this coin... “Subscribed” It can feel validating when someone agrees with something I say and tells me they are subscribing or following me because of it. However, there is a subtle pull that can occur here. The connection between the statement they agreed with and their choice to subscribe creates a conditional presence. I might feel the pressure: "To keep them happy, I better keep saying similar things." This can lead to a slippery slope toward mediocrity, self-censorship, and audience capture - forces we see in abundance today. When we engage like this with people, we subtly encourage them to appeal to the crowd, avoid risks, and conform to expectations (to appease followers and provoke adversaries) rather than exploring new possibilities and navigating the...
