Laurie Metcalf stars as a sharp-tongued Aunt Sarah in the new Broadway family drama "Little Bear, Ridge Road." The show follows Sarah as she and her long-estranged nephew Ethan, played by Micah Stock re-connect over the sale of a family home, and the unraveling of that family's history. Metcalf, Stocck and playwright Samuel D. Hunter discuss the play.

The Steelers defended their home turf with win over the hottest team in the NFL, the Indianapolis Colts, by forcing 6 turnovers.  Now Pittsburgh has to travel to the opposite coast to take on the Chargers in Los Angeles.  Join your hosts Jeremy Kohlman, Wil Masisak, and Korey Karbowsky as they look back on the dominant victory over the Colts, look ahead at the personnel and matchups against the Chargers, and look at some high profile games around the NFL in Week 10.

There are former Steelers asking why the team didn't make any moves at the trade deadline to better the team. One believes if the defense needed help, Mike Tomlin would have made sure an acquisition took place. If the Steelers added somebody like Jakobi Meyers, where would that put them in the AFC? Do we still think it was a mistake that they didn't do anything ahead of the deadline, outside of the Kyle Dugger move from over a week ago? The guys questioned whether or not the Steelers thinking about the draft was a smart move. How much say did Mike have in comparison to the owner and GM?

Your city just legalized “missing middle” housing in its zoning code… now what? With Memphis, Tennessee, as a case study, John Zeanah and Andre D. Jones discuss the hidden non-zoning barriers to developing small apartment buildings — and how to lower them. This is part 4 of our series on misaligned incentives in housing policy.Show notes:Zeanah, J. (2025). Beyond Zoning: Hidden Code Barriers to Middle-Scale Housing. Center for Building in North America.Garcia, D., Carlton, I., Patterson, L., Strawn, J., & Metcalf, B. (2024). Making missing middle pencil: The math behind small-scale housing development. UC Berkeley Terner Center for Housing Innovation. Zeanah, J. (2022 January 12). Memphis, TN Amends Local Building Code to Allow up to Six Units Under Residential Building Code (IRC) to Enable Missing Middle Housing. Opticos Design. 'Beyond Zoning' Abstract:In recent years, planners have made zoning reform a key priority to enable housing supply, including “missing middle” housing … This article explores the barriers beyond zoning that can hold back development of middle-scale housing. It begins with a background on why these lesser-known codes matter for housing diversity. This is followed by a case study of a project in Memphis, highlighting the non-zoning barriers posed to the development of an infill collection of cottages and small apartment buildings, and how they were overcome. Next, the article delves into specific categories of barriers, from building codes and fire safety mandates to infrastructure and local ordinances, explaining how each can impede middle-scale housing projects. Finally, it concludes with an Action Steps for Planners section, offering implementable strategies for reforming codes and coordinating across departments to unlock middle-scale housing development.

Offense vs Purdue Starts at :57 This podcast starts out telepathically but then Brian's intrusive thoughts got telepathed so it had to stop. Dave introduces the Snack of the Week. Would you rather talk about this game or Dunkaroos? Bryce Underwood - not good in the first half. A fumble on the sideline is usually harmless unless it involves the silliest rule in football. His scrambling was good but you can't build a business in this industry by scrambling, that will get you killed against Ohio State. Too many missed passes, he doesn't really settle in. By the Georgia game, JJ was probably where Bryce is now - many mistakes but you can see the talent. On the flip side, the offensive line had a great game. Purdue loaded the box but Jordan Marshall rushed for 185 yards anyways. You can't tackle him with just one guy, he will emerge from piles. This is the fourth straight game where Sprague has been incredible. Bryson Kuzdzal had some nice runs on the game-sealing drive. Tight ends were fine, more catches by Zack Marshall. There's not a lot of separation between Marshall and Klein. Semaj had way fewer snaps, Goodwin saw more time. You have six 2nd or 3rd year players on this offensive line that can absolutely play in this conference. The future of the offensive line is bright.  2. Defense vs Purdue Starts at 41:43 How do we even feel about the defensive performance? We've seen Purdue all season be an offense that moves the ball down the field but can't score. That happened but it felt bad. Cam Brandt was too far upfield on a couple big run plays. Why are the good defensive ends not on the field for 70% of the snaps that they should be out for? Why are the starters rotating out so much throughout the game? Assuming he's healthy, do you put Jaishawn Barham at DE or LB against Ohio State? Michigan didn't commit to a position for him and it's hurting his play. Way fewer three defensive tackle sets, yay. If your name is going to be "Michael Jackson" you need to go by "Mike". Jyaire Hill got sealed a couple times but was otherwise fine. The endzone DPI was DPI. Metcalf got sucked in during the touchdown.  3. Hot Takes, Game Theory, and Special Teams Starts at 1:06:04 Takes hotter than the amount of trouble Jason would get into if he did the Hot Takes voice at a golf tournament where he was during recording. Michigan has not been good at Special Teams Things, why are they running kickoffs out of the middle of the endzone? Another punt that Semaj didn't field that gave up 20 yards. Did Jay Harbaugh have a heat map for punting? We've never had to talk so much about shield punting positioning but now we have to. Clock management at the end of the first half was pretty on-point. Purdue's 4th down decision making was aggressive which you do if you want to try to win the game. Shout out to Michigan fans for feeding energy back into the team in the 4th quarter. The students did the shirtless thing that's become a college football thing. Also shout out to Barry Odom for getting the Purdue bench fired up.  4. Around the Big Ten with Jamie Mac Starts at 1:28:22 Indiana 55, Maryland 10 This is a typical Indiana game these days. Indiana's offense is a machine. The defense is... also a machine?? Every week, Indiana has some weird defensive stat that's historical and worth tracking. Mendoza threw and interception on his first play, the game was wobbly for about a quarter.  Ohio State 38, Penn State 14 Briefly competitive in the 2nd quarter. Penn State is the first top five team in the history of college football to lose five straight games. Julian Sayin had 14 yards per attempt. Ohio State finally catches a break and gets an obvious targeting call to not get enforced.  Minnesota 23, Michigan State 20 (OT) MSU benches Aidan Chiles for Alessio Milivojevic. The Spartans lose this game despite outgaining Minnesota by about 160 yards. The final two minutes of this game are worth watching. Northwestern QB Aidan Chiles?? Alessio had a better EPA than Chiles any other game this season. USC 21, Nebraska 17 If you like offense, don't look at this game. We are suddenly having feelings about Wink Martindale. Dylan Raiola is done for the season and USC is able to grind out a win. Raiola's backup went 5/7 for 7 yards.  Illinois 35, Rutgers 13 A solid victory for Illinois, most of Rutgers' yards are when it was 35-6. Bert: "I put us as good as any 6-3 team out there. That doesn't mean anything." Bowl eligible in consecutive seasons for the first time since 2011. Illinois is the new Wisconsin.  MUSIC: "On & On"—The Marcus King Band "Husbands"—Geese "Don't Forget That I Love you"—Pale Jay “Across 110th Street”—JJ Johnson and his Orchestra 

Post-Gazette Steelers insiders Gerry Dulac and Ray Fittipaldo reacts to the team's NFL Week 9 victory against the Indianapolis Colts at Acrisure Stadium. Why do linebackers T.J. Watt, Alex Highsmith and Payton Wilson deserve the most credit for the defense's dominant day, which included six forced turnovers against Daniel Jones, Jonathan Taylor, Tyler Warren and a Colts offense that entered the game producing at a historic pace? Was the offense a concern in gaining less than 300 yards? Or did Aaron Rodgers, DK Metcalf, Jaylen Warren, Darnell Washington and Pat Freiermuth prove how dangerous they can be if other teams make mistakes? Did Kyle Dugger show how valuable he can be to this defense in his Steelers debut at safety? And what moves might GM Omar Khan have up his sleeve before the NFL trade deadline? Could he add a No. 2 receiver? Or did Sunday prove that there's not much room for another big name beyond Metcalf in this tight end-heavy offense? Our duo tackles those questions and more.

Well the Steelers got embarrassed by the Joe Flacco led Bengals this past week on Thursday Night Football.  While the offense was able to keep up and almost had a chance to win on a patented Aaron Rodgers Hail Mary attempt, the defense looked slow, lethargic, and didn't make the necessary changes to stop the Bengals from advancing and scoring.  Join your hosts Jeremy Kohlman, Wil Masisak, and Korey Karbowsky as they lament the loss against the Bengals, look ahead to Sunday Night Football matchup against the Packers (Aaron Rodgers former team if you didn't know), and look around the NFL for some other games that should be fun to watch.

Off The Bench is back weekdays from 10a to 11a followed by The Stone Shields Show from 11a to noon! In a clash of AFC North titans gone awry, the surging Pittsburgh Steelers (4-1) invade Paycor Stadium to face a reeling Cincinnati Bengals squad (2-4) on Thursday Night Football. What was once a marquee rivalry now feels like a tale of two trajectories: Pittsburgh's three-game win streak has vaulted them to the division lead, while Cincinnati's four straight losses—capped by a 27-18 defeat to Green Bay—have sparked desperation. Joe Burrow's toe injury sidelining him until December forced a midseason pivot, trading for veteran Joe Flacco from Cleveland. The 40-year-old gunslinger debuted last week with 219 yards and two scores, injecting life into an offense dormant under Jake Browning. Pittsburgh, meanwhile, rides Aaron Rodgers' renaissance. The 41-year-old maestro boasts a career-best 105.4 passer rating through five games, with 10 touchdowns and just three picks, slicing defenses for 1,021 yards. His rapport with DK Metcalf has been lethal—Metcalf's four straight TD catches include a scorching 80-yarder—exploiting yards after catch like no other. The Steelers' ground game, turbocharged by Arthur Smith's "Jumbo" packages featuring 290-pound TE Darnell Washington, has averaged 4.4 yards per carry against Cincy's porous 28th-ranked run D. Cincinnati counters with firepower: Ja'Marr Chase erupted for a late TD last outing, and Flacco's familiarity with Pittsburgh—he's 11-11 lifetime against them—could neutralize Mike Tomlin's schemes. Yet injuries loom large: Bengals DE Trey Hendrickson (hip) is questionable, thinning their pass rush (just 3.7% sack rate sans him), while Steelers miss WR Calvin Austin III (shoulder) and S Miles Killebrew (knee). Betting odds tilt toward Pittsburgh as 5.5-point road favorites (O/U 44.5), with sharp money sniffing Bengals value at +225 ML. This gerontocratic QB duel—the third in NFL history pitting 40+ starters—promises fireworks under the lights. Expect Metcalf to feast (Over 70.5 receiving yards) and Pittsburgh's D to force turnovers (Cincy leads the league with 11 giveaways). Steelers pull away late in a 27-20 thriller, solidifying North supremacy. But don't sleep on Flacco's upset magic—after all, these helmets hide Bengal stripes.

At his lowest moment, Jesus transformed Pastor Charles Metcalf's life with one simple truth: “God chose me.” (J2734)

-The guys give their Steelers quarter season awards. Aaron Rodgers was not a consensus MVP choice. Metcalf swept offensive player of the year. Mullsy refused to name Broderick Jones the Steelers biggest disappointment. -NFL analyst Steve Palazzolo joined. He says the Ravens are in big trouble. He still thinks the Steelers offense is lacking dynamism. He's a Kenneth Gainwell fan. -Donny Football Debrief. NFL.com ranked Aaron Rodgers as the 15th best QB at the quarter pole. We guess the QBs that the NFL ranked ahead of him.

[This is one of the finalists in the 2025 review contest, written by an ACX reader who will remain anonymous until after voting is done. I'll be posting about one of these a week for several months. When you've read them all, I'll ask you to vote for a favorite, so remember which ones you liked] I. THE TASTE OF VICTORY The Tupinambá people ate their enemies. This fact scared Hans Staden, a German explorer who was captured by Tupinambá warriors in 1554, when they caught him by surprise during a hunting expedition. As their prisoner for nearly a year, Staden observed a number of their cannibalism rituals. They were elaborate, public affairs; here's a description of them from Duffy and Metcalf's The Return of Hans Staden, an assessment of Staden's voyage and claims: (Ch. 2, pg. 51-52) First a rope was placed around the neck of the captive so that he might not escape; at night the rope was tied to the hammock in which the captive slept. Straps that were not removed were placed above and below the knees. The captives were given women, who guarded them and also slept with them. These women were high-status daughters and sisters of chiefs; they were unmarried and sometimes gave birth to the child of a captive. Some of the captives might be held for a period of time until corn was planted and new large clay vessels—for drink and cooking flesh—were made. Guests were invited to the ceremony, and they often arrived eight to fifteen days in advance of it. A special small house was erected, with no walls but with a roof, in which the captives were placed with women and guards two or three days before the ceremony. In the other houses, feathers were prepared for a headdress or for body ornamentation, and inks were made for tattoos. Women and girls prepared fifty to one hundred vats of fermented manioc beer. Then, when all was ready, they painted the victim's face blue, mounted a headdress of wax covered with feathers on him, and wound a cotton cord around his waist. The guests began to drink in the afternoon and continued all through the night. At dawn, the one who was to do the killing came out with a long, painted wooden club and smashed the captive on the head, splitting it open. The attacker then withdrew for eight to fifteen days of abstinence while the others ate the cooked flesh of the captive and finished all of the drink made for the occasion. https://www.astralcodexten.com/p/your-review-the-synaptic-plasticity

Welcome to Steelers Morning Rush, our new daily short-form podcast with Alan Saunders, giving a longer perspective on a single news topic surrounding the Pittsburgh Steelers or the National Football League. Today, it's whether the team should be expecting more from DK Metcalf. Through two games, Metcalf has more than doubled his career percentage in drops, which could be an alarming trend for the team that just paid him $100 million. At the same time, his average depth of target has plummeted. What's going on with Metcalf, his connection with Aaron Rodgers and the Pittsburgh passing offense?  Alan breaks it down.

Rod Villagomez and Munaf Manji talk NFL fantasy football for week 1 Week one of the NFL season is here, and fantasy football owners are facing those familiar flex spot dilemmas that often decide championships. Rod Villagomez and Munaf Manji dive deep into the most pressing start-sit questions, breaking down wide receiver matchups, running back depth charts, and how injuries shape early lineups . The discussion opens with Cooper Kupp's sharp decline and Ricky Pearsall's rise as San Francisco's surprise weapon. With Brandon Aiyuk banged up and Deebo Samuel absent, Purdy's chemistry with Pearsall makes him the stronger play, especially compared to Kupp adapting to a new offense in Seattle. Munaf reinforces the point, stressing that Pearsall's end-of-season surge and target share translate into legitimate WR2 or flex value. The pair even rank Pearsall above Calvin Ridley in week one, given Ridley's tough matchup against Denver's shutdown corner Patrick Surtain . The show then pivots to DJ Moore versus DK Metcalf. Moore's chemistry with Caleb Williams and strong history against Minnesota stand out, but the allure of Aaron Rodgers throwing deep to Metcalf lingers. Ultimately, both agree that Moore offers the safer floor, while Metcalf is a gamble for owners already trailing after Thursday night. That tension between security and upside is exactly what makes these early-season choices agonizing . Next, they spotlight Mika Yubikei, Tampa Bay's rookie wideout, thrust into action with Chris Godwin sidelined. With Mike Evans drawing top coverage, Yubikei could quietly pile up targets against Atlanta, especially if Baker Mayfield is forced into a shootout. Both Rod and Munaf lean toward starting him, seeing opportunity in volume and game script . Running back depth is another theme. The uncertainty around Christian McCaffrey's calf injury leaves Isaac Guerendo and Brian Robinson Jr. as next-man-up options. Shanahan's system historically leans on multiple backs, and Robinson's signing signals trust. Owners who handcuffed correctly may be rewarded right away. Meanwhile, the hosts debate Cortland Sutton versus Tyrone Tracy Jr. The Broncos receiver brings talent but faces Tennessee's elite pass defense, while Tracy benefits from Washington's leaky run defense. Both lean Tracy, siding with matchup over pedigree . They also tackle Garrett Wilson's value under Justin Fields. Despite quarterback inconsistency, Wilson's target volume makes him hard to bench. Comparing him to Sutton, Munaf sides with Wilson, highlighting how opportunity can outweigh efficiency. Another big-name dilemma: Stefan Diggs versus Jauan Jennings. Diggs, now in New England, offers veteran stability for Drake May, while Jennings is a tertiary option in San Francisco's crowded offense. Both analysts see Diggs as the better play, predicting a potential bounce-back year . The show closes on Austin Ekeler versus Nick Chubb. Ekeler brings dual-threat ability but declining efficiency, while Chubb returns from injury with questions about workload. Rod admits he already benched Ekeler in one league for Chubb, preferring the steadier ground game. They stress that early weeks often spark overreactions, but data on snap counts and usage will soon clarify future decisions. Flex spots may not be glamorous, but as the hosts remind listeners, they swing weekly outcomes and, ultimately, titles . In the end, this week one preview isn't just about names—it's about context, matchups, and opportunity. From Pearsall's emergence in San Francisco to Tracy's rushing upside in New York, the nuances matter. Owners who weigh talent against defensive strength, who balance floor and ceiling, will position themselves for early-season wins. And as always, championships are decided in the margins, in those tricky flex calls that define Sunday glory. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

My friend Rob Metalf (married father of two, age 33) joins us to share his journey with his mental health (OCD/anxiety) and his physical health (Ankylosing spondylitis—or AS). Rob (guitar player and songwriter) has formed a band (TOWN!) and is releasing an album (The Road Trip) that captures many of his life experiences. The first song (Forever—see show notes) is a song about his anxiety. In the podcast, Rob talks about other songs that on the album talking about important and sensitive subjects (suicide, relationship with the Church, Alzheimer's). In the podcast, Rob shares his journey with AS (undiagnosed for a long time) and how it took him from an avid outdoorsman to—on his worse days—bedridden. Rob talks about his journey to find a diagnosis and the right medication to get him in a better spot—and all the people that helped him along the way. Rob is honest about feeling angry/abandon by God and how we can better support people with long-term health challenges. Rob is one of my heroes. He is a survivor and now using his gifts to help others through sharing his story and his music. I encourage you to listen to and share this podcast and his music. Thank you, Rob, for being on the podcast. You are a good man.

The sad reality is that predators exist in places of power where we should be able to have security -- immoral vampires and child abusers take refuge in schools, day cares, "respected" families and churches. Claims that covert and diabolical satanic cults are abusing children in ritual ceremonies have been spreading across this country over several decades amid much controversy. Lawsuits and allegations of this type of predatory behavior plagues every religious and educational institution, and even political persuasion -- it is a hell that is especially portrayed on children by individuals who use their abuses not just for sexual gratification, but for power and control. How do we respond to this incessant evil upon the innocent? Listen to Ground Zero with Clyde Lewis M-F from 7-10 pm, pacific time on groundzeroplus.com.

In this episode of Behind the Uniform - Season 3 - we feature senior edge Derrick Moore. "He reflects upon last year's early season struggles on defense, and how he and the other veteran players helped lead the unit and the team back from the brink after the loss to Indiana. Moore opens up about the difficulties that came with the turnover in coaching staff, and how he played a role in helping the players and coaches gel in time to beat Ohio State. Moore shares his expectations for the 2025 season, highlighting the improvements he needs to make and the skills that he's tried to learn from past Wolverine standouts like Aidan Hutchinson. Moore highlights the growth of the current Michigan defense, attributing it to the depth and hunger of younger players like Cam Brandt, Dom Nichols, and the Metcalf brothers. He also shared his motivation, driven by his mother's sacrifices. The episode concludes with Moore looking ahead to a successful season, with eyes for a Big Ten championship and another national title.
