If you've been to a national park in the U.S. recently, you might have noticed some odd new signs about “beauty” and “grandeur.” Or, some signs you were used to seeing might now be missing completely. An executive order issued earlier this year put the history and educational aspects of the parks system under threat–but a group of librarians stepped in to save it.  This week we have a conversation between Sam and two of the leaders of the independent volunteer archiving project Save Our Signs, an effort to archive national park signs and monument placards. It's a community collaboration project co-founded by a group of librarians, public historians, and data experts in partnership with the Data Rescue Project and Safeguarding Research & Culture.  Lynda Kellam leads the Research Data and Digital Scholarship team at the University of Pennsylvania Libraries and is a founding organizer of the Data Rescue Project. Jenny McBurney is the Government Publications Librarian and Regional Depository Coordinator at the University of Minnesota Libraries. In this episode, they discuss turning “frustration, dismay and disbelief” at parks history under threat into action: compiling more than 10,000 images from over 300 national parks into a database to be preserved for the people.

Mike's back to help Hugh Grant charm his way into our hearts once again!

In episode 220, Max chats with the AFL's Head of Officiating Stephen McBurney! We went deep on the laws of the game, umpire contact, holding the ball, and how to stay calm with 100,000 fans roaring behind you. Stephen shares how content he is with the current Brownlow Medal adjudication process, whether umpires could soon have access to stats, and how the interpretation of holding the ball has evolved this year - including whether the “shrug” could be deemed prior opportunity in 2026. He also gives fascinating insight into how the out-of-bounds rule impacts the ruck's role in the game, and whether the ARC's boundary line review system will carry over into 2026. Stephen takes us through his umpiring journey - from being mentored by John Beveridge to bouncing the ball in his first AFL match, and the greatest Grand Final he's been part of. We unpack how umpires communicate in real time during matches, what changes he wants to see for greater safety, and how the AFL can maintain consistency across a full season. All this and much more in episode 220 of Sporting Max! www.instagram.com/sportingmax.podcast/

The Gay 90's: We'll examine etymology and biology and how back in the 1990s the western world saw a full court press to normalize perversion and corrupt the language. Losing the Culture War: In 2009 Bob Enyart interviewed one of the devil's more productive culture warriors; unrepentant sodomite Wayne Besen.

From Eden to Revelation: Look in on the history of feminism, paganism, divination & witchcraft, and hear how the more and more corrupt the world becomes, the more and more words are used to paper it over.
