This week, Corinne Fisher breaks down a disturbing convergence of global violence, political maneuvering, and media failure, asking why so many warning signs were ignored and what comes next.We examine new reporting and analysis on extremist attacks around the world, including Australia and the U.S., and how experts and researchers predicted this escalation years ago. From a stopped New Year's Eve terror plot in Los Angeles to an active shooting suspect near Brown University, the episode connects international movements to domestic consequences.The conversation also turns to American politics: how the GOP may have baited Rep. Jasmine Crockett into a Senate run, the coordinated backlash she's faced over Israel and Gaza, behind-the-scenes pushes for a third Trump term despite constitutional limits, and growing signs that Kamala Harris is preparing another presidential run.Original Air Date: 12/17/25You can watch Without A Country LIVE every Wednesday at 9PM on our YouTube Channel at https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCjP3oJVS_BEgGXOPcVzlpVw!**PLEASE SUBSCRIBE, RATE & REVIEW ON iTUNES & SUBSCRIBE TO OUR YOUTUBE CHANNEL**Link To The Patreon!https://patreon.com/WithoutACountry?utm_medium=unknown&utm_source=join_link&utm_campaign=creatorshare_creator&utm_content=copyLinkThis Week Corinne looks at a group in Los Angeles taking the worn out cross walk problem into their own handsWHERE YOU CAN ANNOY US:Corinne Fisher:Twitter: https://twitter.com/PhilanthropyGalInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/philanthropygalExecutive Producer: Mike HarringtonInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/themharrington/Twitter: https://twitter.com/TheMHarringtonTheme Song By Free VicesWebsite https://www.freevices.com/Apple Music https://music.apple.com/us/artist/free-vices/1475846774Spotify https://open.spotify.com/artist/3fUw9W8zIj6RbibZN2b3kP?si=N8KzuFkvQXSnaejeDqVpIg&nd=1&dlsi=533dddc8672f46f0SoundCloud https://on.soundcloud.com/5sceVeUFADVBJr4P7YouTube https://youtube.com/channel/UCOsgEoQ2-czvD8eWctnxAAw?si=SL1RULNWVuJb8AONInstagram http://instagram.com/free_vicesMERCH IS HERE - https://superunison.co/collections/corinne-fisherGO FUND ME Link:https://gofund.me/28d8cf6dbCNN analysis: https://www.cnn.com/2025/12/17/style/christopher-anderson-vanity-fair-analysisWHY THESE ATTACKS ARE HAPPENINGhttps://www.npr.org/2025/12/17/nx-s1-5645825/isis-islamic-australia-syriaGEORGE WASHINGTON UNIVERSITY STUDENT PREDICTING IT: https://extremism.gwu.edu/australia-and-islamic-state-terrorism-and-extremismNY Times Op Ed:https://www.nytimes.com/2025/12/14/opinion/bondi-beach-shooting.htmlLos Angeles Terror Plothttps://nypost.com/2025/12/15/us-news/fbi-stops-planned-new-years-eve-los-angeles-terror-attack-by-pro-palestinian-cell/GOP Tricked Jasmine Crockett Into Running for Senatehttps://www.notus.org/senate/jasmine-crockett-nrsc-texas-senateJasmine & Israel: https://www.blackenterprise.com/jasmine-crockett-coordinated-attack-israel-gaza/Brown University Shooting Suspect Still on the Loosehttps://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/authorities-press-information-public-search-brown-university-shooter-rcna243522https://www.npr.org/2025/12/16/nx-s1-5644931/nick-reiner-investigation-life-without-paroleTrump Third Termhttps://www.ibtimes.co.uk/young-republicans-push-third-trump-term-closed-door-event-despite-constitution-ban-1763185Kamala Running for President Againhttps://www.thedailybeast.com/kamala-harris-lays-groundwork-for-2028-run-with-damning-new-message/https://www.axios.com/2025/12/14/kamala-harris-president-2028We're Getting People Elected, But What's Our Plan?https://www.thefp.com/p/generation-z-is-tearing-down-entireSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Trading is no longer just a financial activity; it has become a spectator sport. In this episode, Threadguy explains how Gen Z's internet-native fluency, built through sneaker markets, NFTs, and meme cycles, translates into a new kind of market intuition: attention, momentum, and mimetics. We delve into “Entertainment Finance,” where perps, prediction markets, and live trading are starting to resemble streaming and esports more closely than Wall Street. Along the way, we explore why “internet capital markets” may pull everything on-chain over time, what happens when every asset becomes content, and why creators and traders will keep pushing into the open frontier. ---

Then he found another, and another — all with words like “remedy,” “tonic” and “quick cure” embossed on them.

Dr. Marissa Russo trained to become a cancer biologist. She spent four years studying one of the deadliest brain tumors in adults and built her entire research career around a simple, urgent goal: open her own lab and improve the odds for patients with almost no shot at survival. In 2024 she applied for an F31 diversity grant through the NIH. The reviewers liked her work. Her resubmission was strong. Then the grant system started glitching. Dates vanished. Study sections disappeared. Emails went silent. When she finally reached a program officer, the message was clear: scrub the DEI language, withdraw, and resubmit. She rewrote the application in ten days. It failed. She had to start over. Again. This time with her identity erased.Marissa left the lab. She found new purpose as a science communicator, working at STAT News through the AAAS Mass Media Fellowship. Her story captures what happens when talent collides with institutional sabotage. Not every scientist gets to choose a Plan B.

Gerald Jones and Kevin Clark's friendship goes back over 20 years, to the night they first met backstage at the Academy Awards. Their bond grew through creativity, shared values, and a deep desire to make a difference. Together, they later won an Emmy Award for a public service announcement addressing school gun violence - a project that reflected their heart for inspiring hope and protecting the next generation.Beyond their work in media, Gerald and Kevin have also been long-time business partners supporting individuals with developmental disabilities, running programs focused on empowerment and compassion. This commitment to community is woven into everything they do - and it became the foundation of Blessn.The story of Blessn began in March 2023, when Gerald Jones became sick of doom scrolling on social media, and found himself bummed out after every TikTok session. It occurred to him that maybe there was a better way. There should be a short form video social media that uplifted and encouraged instead. He thought it would be better to faith scroll instead of doom scroll. He called his business partner, Kevin Clark, who was feeling the exact same way. They decided to create something themselves, that uplifted people about the world and each other. Something that encouraged connectedness.Over the next several years, the two friends poured their faith, creativity, and personal savings into developing the Blessn app, testing every detail to make sure it felt safe, uplifting, and positive. Their mission is to shift the culture of social media and to make it a place where kindness, faith, and encouragement are celebrated, not drowned out by negativity.At its heart, Blessn is more than an app - it's a movement. A space where users can share uplifting videos, connect with others who believe in goodness, and replace endless “doom scrolling” with “faith scrolling.” Gerald and Kevin believe that positive scrolling has the power to change hearts, strengthen communities, and remind people that light always wins over darkness.For more information on the Blessn app, visit: blessn.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/i-am-refocused-radio--2671113/support.Subscribe now at YouTube.com/@RefocusedNetworkThank you for your time.

PURANA Media is an annual, peer-reviewed, open access journal focused on modes of cultural production encompassed by the term purāṇa (a Sanskrit word designating things 'ancient' or 'primordial'). Populated by deities, sages, and a host of other more-than-human agents, the purāṇic past has been disseminated through a wide range of media and forms of embodied knowledge. As an authoritative discourse, purāṇa has been integral to the shaping of history and cultural memory in early South and Southeast Asia. In the contemporary world this discourse continues to (re)create the past as a social, political, and affective force. The journal approaches purāṇa as a way of worldmaking that uses memories of a distant past to meaningfully anchor the relative present and envision a future possible. PURANA Media adopts a broad methodological and regional scope. The journal integrates scholarship on primary historical sources (textual, visual, and material) and their contexts, critical reflections on heritage-making and museum studies, as well as contributions in art, design, photography, and other media.

They examine the rise of figures like Mamdani in New York City politics, the erosion of moderating voices, and the dangers of mayor-elect Mamdani's threat to prioritize international law over U.S. sovereignty. The conversation also tackles controversial topics such as Congresswoman Ilhan Omar who identifies as "Somali first," the media's complicity in normalizing extremist views, and why both the left and the right are struggling with radical factions. This episode is a sharp analysis of the current state of politics in America and what happens if radicalism continues to go unchallenged. Episode Highlights How the Democratic Party's leftward shift has sidelined moderates and reshaped American politics Why figures like Mamdani raise serious concerns not just for New York City but nationwide The media's role in amplifying extremist voices and the urgent need for critical political engagement

When paired with suggestive commentary and selective framing, the image became something it never was—an insinuation rather than evidence. This is where media spin becomes more than sloppy journalism. It becomes actively misleading...

This week I had the chance to sit down with two fascinating guests who are at the forefront of bridging the worlds of digital performance marketing and traditional television advertising. Nick Fairbairn, VP of Growth Marketing at Chime, and Andy Schonfeld, CRO at Tatari, walked me through how they've transformed Chime from a pure digital-first, DTC neobank brand built on social and search into a sophisticated advertiser that runs television campaigns with the same performance mindset they apply to Meta and Google. Their partnership has evolved from small linear TV tests six years ago to a comprehensive full-funnel TV strategy that blends brand building with direct response metrics.Nick and Andy shared incredible insights into the evolution of performance TV, from navigating the COVID-era inventory opportunities to understanding why linear TV still matters even as streaming dominates the conversation. They explained how Chime approaches television with a portfolio strategy, balancing premium reach moments like live sports with more targeted direct response placements, and why creative and media planning have become the "new targeting" in a world where precise one-to-one identification remains expensive and imperfect. We also dove into the challenges of measuring TV in a fragmented landscape, the role of AI-driven creative, and whether shoppable TV will actually move the needle or remain a marginal innovation. Key HighlightsHere's a shorter version:
This week, Jim preps for christmas booze and enjoys a trip to Derry Maine while disparing at the discourse around the show. Elton has a major "up moment" hanging out with chill musicians. Darren laments the cost of everything and seems fairly non plussed at the new Doctor Who spin off show. While Lee, gets banned from Reddit for saying naughty words about the Fanta Menace, enjoys an interactive cartoon game and travels to a pub in Bristol to teach people to paint robins in a pub. After that we all get our gym wear on and try to awkwardly look anywhere but the screen when our partners are in the room as we review The Substance.

The media is complicit in the Hanukkah massacre. That's not an accusation or opinion; it's a demonstrable fact. Today, Josh provides proof. In the wake of the Islamist terrorist attack in Sydney, Josh takes you inside Australia's media landscape, which mirrors that of the United States and western Europe. You'll hear the daughter of an elderly victim bravely call out the mainstream media in the middle of a live interview. Then, Josh digs into the big problem with the media's fixation on one hero. He explains how the media uses stories like that to hide a much bigger reality. He tells you about Jewish heroes who were killed in the attack. And he shares sound from a brave Muslim soldier fighting Islamist terrorism and antisemitism. Anti-Zionism is a hate movement radicalizing the world. Josh explains that Hanukkah is all about defeating anti-Zionism. Yet the media uses the holiday to platform anti-Zionist Jews, giving audiences the false idea that they're large in number.
