In a culture obsessed with skipping steps, Larry Maloney argues that the struggle is the point.

Join us for a conversation with the James Beard Award-winning duo behind the new book, The Cocktail Sessions: Toby Maloney, award-winning bartender, and acclaimed author Emma Janzen. Toby draws on decades behind the bar to break down the fundamentals of classic cocktails, from the Daiquiri and Old Fashioned to the Negroni and beyond, revealing how small adjustments in balance, texture, temperature, and technique can transform an everyday staple into something truly memorable. Emma brings her signature clarity and storytelling to the discussion, explaining how their collaborative process distills professional wisdom into pages that feel like sitting down for a session with a master bartender. Together, they explore why there is no single right way to make a great Martini or Mai Tai, and how home enthusiasts can learn to trust their own palates.

Finding Love & Yourself in Your 50s with Marchetta Daniels Season 2, Episode 3 | That Part by 45 Lemons We asked the Black women in our lives a simple question: If you could talk about anything on a podcast, what would it be? Marchetta Daniels chose love, reinvention, and finding yourself after 50. What unfolds is a conversation about far more than romance. Verta, Naa, and Marchetta explore aging, identity, confidence, second chapters, and what happens when you stop living by timelines that were never really yours. Together, they unpack the stories society tells women, especially Black women, about desirability, visibility, and what is supposedly “too late.” They talk about self-trust, joy, purpose, softer love, and the freedom that can come with knowing yourself more deeply. Because after 50 is not simply about starting over. Sometimes it is about arriving. Arriving at clearer boundaries, fuller self-knowledge, and the reminder that becoming does not have an expiration date.

Coming Home to Yourself After Grief and Loss with Darnese Daniels Season 2 of That Part continues with another question answered by the Black women in our lives: If you could talk about anything on a podcast, what would it be? This episode is Darnese's answer. Darnese Daniels joins us for a conversation about grief, not just the moment of loss, but what comes after. The part no one really prepares you for. The quiet. The identity shift. The version of you that no longer exists and the one still taking shape. Verta and Naa sit with what it means to come home to yourself after grief and loss. They explore how grief changes the way you move, love, and see the world, and how, for many Black women, that process happens while everything else keeps going. From the pressure to keep holding it all together to the unspoken ways grief reshapes your sense of self, this conversation moves through loss, truth, and the slow work of becoming. Because grief does not just take something from you. It tells the truth about you. And coming home to yourself is not about going back. It is about claiming who you are now. Season 2 continues to bring new voices into the room while staying rooted in what That Part has always been. Real conversation. Cultural truth. And the things we don't always say out loud.

OsteoBites welcomes Caroline Maloney, MD, PhD, from the Medical College of Wisconsin, who will discuss her research on surgery-accelerated metastasis and developing perioperative therapies.Pulmonary metastasis remains the major cause of death in osteosarcoma. The timing of metastatic relapse defines clinically meaningful subgroups in osteosarcoma with patients who relapse within 6–12 months of surgical removal of their primary tumor having markedly worse survival (10-20%) than those who relapse after completion of therapy (40-50%). While surgical removal of the primary tumor is a fundamental component of the clinical care of solid tumors, surgery induces transient but profound changes in immune and inflammatory responses that can paradoxically accelerate the growth of metastatic disease. Dr. Maloney has demonstrated that surgical removal of the primary tumor accelerates the growth of pre-existing pulmonary metastatic disease and promotes expansion of M2‐like macrophages in the lung microenvironment. Strikingly, short term perioperative treatment with a RIPK2 inhibitor blocks this effect and reprograms macrophages toward an M1-like phenotype, implicating the NOD2–RIPK2 innate immune pathway as a key mediator of post‐surgical immune reprogramming. In contrast, the NOD2 agonist Mifamurtide has shown clinical efficacy when administered as adjuvant therapy to metastatic osteosarcoma patients after primary tumor resection. This data suggests that NOD/RIPK2 signaling may exert context-dependent effects, promoting either pro- or anti-tumor myeloid responses depending on the timing of activation relative to surgery. Understanding how surgical tumor removal alters systemic innate immunity and how RIPK2 signaling orchestrates these responses could identify new strategies to prevent early pulmonary relapse after surgery.

Realigning with Self After Motherhood with Jihan J Season 2 of That Part begins with a simple but powerful shift. We asked Black women in our lives one question: If you could talk about anything on a podcast, what would it be? This episode is the first answer. Jihan returns and brings us into a conversation about realigning with self after motherhood. Not as a dramatic reinvention, but as an ongoing reckoning with identity, change, and what it means to come back to yourself after becoming everything to someone else. Verta and Naa explore the tension between devotion and disappearance, the unspoken expectations placed on Black women, and what it looks like to find yourself again after years of holding it all. From the emotional weight of being needed to the subtle ways we drift from ourselves over time, this conversation moves between the personal and the professional with honesty and care. Because motherhood changes you. But it should not erase you. Realignment is not about becoming someone new. It is about remembering who you have always been and who you are becoming. Season 2 brings new voices into the room while staying rooted in what That Part has always been. Real conversation. Cultural truth. And the things we don't always say out loud.

Most therapists crack a joke in session at some point, but very few have actually studied the clinical art of using humor in therapy. If you've ever wondered whether that offhand comment landed the right way, or held back because it felt too risky, this episode is going to change how you think about it.In this episode of The Traveling Therapist Podcast, I sit down with Glenn Maloney, psychotherapist and author of Finding the Humor in Psychotherapy: A Primer on the Clinical Art of Joking with Your Clients. Glenn has presented on this topic everywhere from the Minnesota Psychological Association to the International Federation of Social Workers in Oslo, Norway, and he brings a genuinely fresh perspective on how humor fits into serious clinical work.In This Episode, We Explore…Why letting the client make the first joke is one of the most useful assessment tools you have.The types of humor to be careful with in session, including sarcasm and self-defamation.How a client's jokes can spotlight exactly what needs to be addressed clinically.The three main uses of humor in therapy: connection, reframe, and nervous system regulation.Ways to incorporate humor even if you don't consider yourself a funny person.Connect with Glenn:Website https://www.mostexcellentpsychotherapy.com/Instagram https://www.instagram.com/mostexcellentpsychotherapy/LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/in/glenn-maloney-6a447b28b/Are you ready to take the plunge and become a Traveling Therapist?

Replay!This week on Architectette, we're spotlighting the voices of recent graduates from architecture programs across the globe. We asked all of our guests the same questions to gain insight into their unique experiences as they transition from academia to professional practice.From how the pandemic shaped their academic experience to the movie that best describes their studio life, we dive deep into the highs and lows of their time in school. You'll hear some of the best pieces of advice they received during critiques, their thoughts on navigating internships, and the challenges of job hunting. We also asked about the surprises they encountered when they first entered the workplace, mentorship and management, and how they're learning in hybrid environments.Finally, we asked our guests to look toward the future: we chat about how they plan to approach their AREs, what advice they'd give to the next class of graduates, and what they hope their legacy will be when they retire. Lauren Maloney recently graduated from the University of Kansas as a part of their 5-year Master of Architecture program. While there, she developed a focus in Health and Wellness architecture and looks forward to making a difference in healthcare settings as an Associate at a firm in the Midwest.Here's what we asked: 1. Introductions: what is your name, where did you go to school, when did you graduate?2. How did the pandemic affect your academic experience?3. If you had to describe your studio experience as a movie, which would you pick and why? 4. What was an impactful critique or piece of advice you received during a crit? 5. Did you intern during school? 6. Describe the job application process. Do you have tips for others regarding reaching out, interview questions, portfolio preparation, or software readiness?7. When applying to firms, what factors were most important to you?8. Did you negotiate any aspects of your offer? (salary, PTO, schedule?)9. Once working, what is something about the practice of architecture that surprised you? What is something that you had to overcome? 10. Is it challenging to learn in a hybrid environment?

In a prime time address on Wednesday, President Trump proclaimed that America was “on the cusp of ending Iran's sinister threat.” But he also kept open the option of boots on the ground. The effective closure of the Strait of Hormuz is also about to start really biting – as countries get hit with shortages, which would spike prices across the globe. So what are Trump's options? What would happen if he just declared victory and walked away from the fight? What kinds of military operations are on the table? If Trump ended the war without achieving his strategic goals, what would that mean for the United States, for Iran and for the world? “I don't see a victory in real terms at the end of this crisis…,” Suzanne Maloney told me. “And that is a very dangerous outcome for the long term.” Maloney is one of Washington's leading Iran experts. She has advised several presidential administrations and has written or edited a number of books on Iran. She is the vice president and director of the Brookings Institution's foreign policy program. Note: This conversation was recorded on Wednesday morning, before Trump's speech on the war. But the speech reflected Maloney's analysis almost perfectly.

In Episode 28 of Talking Shit About Nothing, the boys welcome in coworker Brendan Maloney from Wilson Farms for an episode that quickly turns into organized chaos. With Richie officially catching the golf bug, he and Brendan attempt to teach Jimmy the basics of the game. The result? Jimmy is equal parts confused, intrigued, and questioning everything about golf culture. The conversation shifts to the NFL offseason, where the guys break down free agency moves, especially what the Patriots have lost and gained as they reshape their roster. At some point, the dynamic starts to feel like the Three Stooges, which naturally leads to a full conversation about the classic comedy trio and their best bits. To close things out, Jimmy turns his attention to dating in 2026, grilling Brendan on what it's like navigating the modern dating world — apps, expectations, and everything in between. Golf, football, comedy, and dating confusion. It's peak Talking Shit About Nothing energy.

What happens when two James Beard Award-caliber talents breathe new life into a 1968 dive bar? Join us for a conversation with acclaimed chef Monique King and legendary bartender Toby Maloney as they take us inside the revival of The Elbow Room, a beloved Vancouver, Washington watering hole they rescued from the brink of disaster. King shares the story of discovering the crumbling space and partnering with Maloney—a friend since their Chicago days in the '90s—to give it new purpose. Maloney reveals his philosophy behind creating an approachable "low touch" cocktail program that delivers incredible complexity with minimal fuss, from the signature Freezer Door Manhattan with its boozy vermouth granita to scratch-made pickled onions. Together, they discuss their mission as "restorationists," preserving what makes a neighborhood haunt special while elevating everything from the grilled cheese to the Tater Tots.

Procrastination Is Protecting Something   This episode is for anyone who has ever called themselves lazy while quietly carrying too much. In Episode 8, Verta and Naa reframe procrastination not as a character flaw, but as emotional data. Sometimes we delay because we don't care. Sometimes we delay because we care too much. And sometimes what looks like avoidance is exhaustion, misalignment, fear of being seen, or perfectionism dressed up as productivity. They unpack the shame spiral — the “shoulds,” the urgency culture, the hustle trauma — and explore how delay can function as protection: from visibility, rejection, burnout, or making the wrong decision. But they also name the turning point — when protection becomes pattern, and pattern becomes self-betrayal. Instead of productivity hacks, they offer better questions: Is this delay protecting my alignment — or my fear? If I don't do this, what will it cost me? Because avoidance can feel like safety in the moment. But over time, it becomes self-betrayal. From unfinished conversations sitting heavy in the body to ideas that feel too close to the heart to release, this episode moves beyond productivity and into deeper self-exploration — inviting intentional choices that shape our relationships, creativity, and healing.

With the American republic hanging in the balance, Ralph calls on Democrats to pressure Republicans in the House and Senate to impeach Trump before the midterms or suffer the consequences. Then, we welcome Dino Grandoni, co-author of a Washington Post report on the surprising ways various species of animals and plants help advance our own health and longevity.Dino Grandoni is a reporter who covers life sciences for the Washington Post. He was part of a reporting team that was a finalist for the 2025 Pulitzer Prize in National Reporting for coverage of Hurricane Helene. He previously covered the Environmental Protection Agency and wrote a daily tipsheet on energy and environmental policy. He is co-author (with Hailey Haymond and Katty Huertas) of the feature “50 Species That Save Us.”The Democrats—while there are people like constitutional law expert Jamie Raskin (who has said a shadow hearing to publicly educate the American people on impeachment “is a good idea”) he's been muzzled by Hakeem Jeffries and Charlie Schumer, who basically don't want the Democrats to use the word impeachment. So who's using the word impeachment the most? Donald Trump—not only wants to impeach judges who decide against him, but he's talking about the Democrats impeaching him, and he uses the word all the time. So we have an upside-down situation here where the opposition party is not in the opposition on the most critical factor, which is that we have the most impeachable President in American history, getting worse by the day.Ralph NaderIf the founding fathers came back to life today, would any of them oppose the impeachment, conviction, and removal of office of Donald J. Trump, who talks about being a monarch? That's what they fought King George over. Of course, they would all support it.Ralph NaderWhat we have in these cards and in our stories at the Washington Post here are examples of the ways we know, the ways that scientists have uncovered how plants and animals help us. But we don't know what we don't know. There are likely numerous other ways that plants and animals are protecting human well-being that we don't know and we may very well never know if some of these species go extinct.Dino GrandoniI'm always eager to find these connections between human well-being and the well-being of nature and try to describe them in ways that are compelling to readers that get them to care about protecting nature. And also finding those instances (because I want to be objective here) of when human well-being and the well-being of nature might be in conflict, and that might involve some tough decisions that we as a society or policymakers have to make.Dino GrandoniNews 1/16/25* Our top two stories this week concern corporate wrongdoing. First, Business Insider reports that the New York City Department of Consumer and Worker Protection has released a new report which estimates Uber Eats and DoorDash, by altering their tipping processes in the city – moving tipping prompts to less prominent locations after checkout so upfront delivery costs would appear lower – have deprived gig delivery workers of $550 million since December 2023. As this piece notes, that was the month that New York City's minimum pay law for delivery workers took effect. As a result, “The average tip for delivery workers on the apps dropped 75%...from $3.66 to $0.93, one week after the apps made the changes…The figure has since declined to $0.76 per delivery.” This report presages a new city law that “requires the apps to offer customers the option to tip before or during checkout. Both Uber and DoorDash have sued the City over the law, which is set to take effect on January 26.” Whether the administration will stick to their guns on this issue, in the face of corporate pressure, will be a major early test for Mayor Zohran Mamdani.* Meanwhile, the Wall Street Journal reports UnitedHealth Group “deployed aggressive tactics to collect payment-boosting diagnoses for its Medicare Advantage members.” As the Journal explains, “In Medicare Advantage, the federal government pays insurers a lump sum to oversee medical benefits for seniors and disabled people. The government pays extra for patients with certain costly medical conditions, a process called risk adjustment.” A new report from the Senate Judiciary Committee found that UnitedHealth had “turned risk adjustment into a business,” thereby exploiting Medicare Advantage and systematically and fraudulently overbilling the federal government. Due to its structure, advocates like Ralph Nader have long warned that Medicare Advantage is ripe for waste fraud and abuse, in addition to being an inferior program for seniors compared to traditional Medicare. This report supports the accuracy of these warnings. Yet, Dr. Mehmet Oz Trump's appointee to head the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services, is a longtime proselytizer for Medicare Advantage and this setback is unlikely to make him reverse course, no matter the cost to patients or taxpayers.* Yet, even as these instances of corporate criminal lawlessness pile up, the Trump administration is all but abolishing the police on the corporate crime beat. In a new report, Rick Claypool, corporate crime research director at Public Citizen, documents how the administration has “canceled or halted a total of 159 enforcement actions against 166 corporations.” This amounts to corporations avoiding payments totaling $3.1 billion in penalties for misconduct. This report further documents how these corporations have ingratiated themselves with Trump, via donations to his inauguration or ballroom project, or more typical revolving door or lobbying arrangements. As Claypool himself puts it, “The ‘law enforcement' claims the White House uses as a pretext for authoritarian anti-immigrant crackdowns, city occupations, and imperial resource seizures abroad lose all credibility when cast against the lawlessness Trump allows for the pursuit of corporate profits.”* In another instance of a Trump administration giveaway to corporations, the New York Times reports the Environmental Protection Agency will “Stop Considering Lives Saved When Setting Rules on Air Pollution.” Under the new regulatory regime, the EPA will “estimate only the costs to businesses of complying with the rules.” The Times explains that different administrations have balanced these competing interests differently, always faced with the morbid dilemma of how much, in a dollar amount, to value human life; but “until now, no administration has counted it as zero.”* Moving to Congress, the big news from the Legislative Branch this week has to do with Bill and Hillary Clinton. NPR reports Congressman James Comer, Chair of the House Oversight Committee, issued subpoenas to the former president and former Secretary of State to testify in a committee hearing related to convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. In a letter published earlier this week, the Clintons formally rejected the subpoenas, calling them “legally invalid.” The Clintons' refusal to appear tees up an opportunity for Congress to exercise its contempt power and force the couple to testify. Democrats on the Oversight Committee, who agreed to issue the subpoenas as part of a larger list, have noted that “most of the other people have not been forced to testify,” indicating that this is a political stunt rather than an earnest effort. That said, there is little doubt that, at least, former President Clinton knows more about the Epstein affair than he has stated publicly thus far and there is a good chance Congress will vote through a contempt resolution and force him to testify.* In the Senate, Elizabeth Warren, Chris Murphy and other liberal Senators are “urging their Democratic colleagues to pivot to economic populism by ‘confronting' corporate power and billionaires, warning that just talking about affordability alone won't move swing voters who backed President Trump in 2024,” per the Hill. Senators Adam Schiff of California and Tina Smith of Minnesota also signed this memo. The Senators cited a recent poll that found Americans “increasingly cannot afford basic goods such as medical care and groceries,” but they also warned that “Bland policy proposals — without a narrative explaining who is getting screwed and who is doing the screwing – will not work.” Hopefully this forceful urging by fellow Senators will move the needle within the Democratic caucus in the upper house. Nothing else seems to have driven the point home.* One candidate who seems to understand this message is Graham Platner of Maine. Platner, who is endorsed by Bernie Sanders, has a controversial past that includes a career in the Marines and a stint working for the private military contractor Blackwater. However, he is running as a staunch economic populist and New Deal style progressive Democrat – and the message appears to be working. According to Zeteo, a poll conducted in mid-December found Platner up by 15 points in the primary over his opponent, current Governor Janet Mills. More concerning is the fact that this same poll shows both Platner and Mills in a dead heat with incumbent Republican Senator Susan Collins, indicating this could be a brutal, protracted and expensive campaign.* On the other end of the spectrum, Axios reported this week that former Congressman Sean Patrick Maloney, who once led the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee and then served as President Biden's ambassador to the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development, has accepted a role as CEO and president of the Coalition for Prediction Markets. The coalition is essentially a trade association for betting websites; members include Kalshi, Crypto.com Robinhood and Coinbase, among others. The coalition will leverage Maloney's influence with Democrats, along with former Republican Congressman Patrick McHenry's influence across the aisle, to lobby for favorable regulation for their industry.* Turning to foreign affairs, prosecutors in South Korea have announced that they are seeking the death penalty for former President Yoon Suk-Yeol on “charges of masterminding an insurrection over his brief imposition of martial law in December 2024,” per Reuters. In a stunning courtroom revelation, a prosecutor said during closing arguments that “investigators confirmed the existence of a scheme allegedly directed by Yoon and his former defence minister, Kim Yong-hyun, dating back to October 2023 designed to keep Yoon in power.” The prosecutor added that “The defendant has not sincerely regretted the crime... or apologised properly to the people.” As this piece notes, South Korea has not carried out a death sentence in nearly three decades. Even still, it is remarkable to see how this case has unfolded compared to the reaction of the American judicial system to Donald Trump's attempted self-coup on January 6th, 2021.* Finally, turning to Latin America, many expected the fall of Nicolás Maduro to mean a redoubled energy crisis for the long-embargoed island nation of Cuba. Yet, the Financial Times reports that in fact, “Mexico overtook Venezuela to become Cuba's top oil supplier in 2025…helping the island weather a sharp drop in Venezuelan crude shipments.” CBS adds that “Despite President Trump's social media pronouncement…that ‘there will be no more oil or money going to Cuba — zero,' the current U.S. policy is to allow Mexico to continue to provide oil to the island, according to Energy Secretary Chris Wright.” For the time being, the administration seems open to maintaining this status quo – including maintaining cordial relations with Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum – though this appears more strained than ever. Sheinbaum harshly criticized the kidnapping of Maduro, stating “unilateral action and invasion cannot be the basis for international relations in the 21st century,” while Republican Congressman Carlos Gimenez has threatened that there could be “serious consequences for trade between our countries” if Sheinbaum “continues to undermine US policy by sending oil to the murderous dictatorship in Cuba.”This has been Francesco DeSantis, with In Case You Haven't Heard.
