    In July 1985, music legends Mick Jagger and David Bowie were asked to perform a duet with a twist at Live Aid, the biggest concert in pop history. Utilising the latest satellite technology, Mick would perform on the US stage in Philadelphia, while David would perform on the UK stage at Wembley Stadium. As the technical issues were being discussed, it soon became obvious that a half-second delay in the link between cities would prevent the live performance from happening, so a recording was planned instead. A short list of songs was discussed before the duo finally settled on the Motown classic Dancing in the Street. Live Aid press officer Bernard Doherty tells Des Shaw how the duet and video were recorded in just 18 hours and became a highlight of the benefit concert on 13 July 1985.

    Judging by how often US President Donald Trump has repeated the slogan “Drill, baby, drill”, you might think he coined it. But the phrase actually dates back to 2008. It was at the Republican National Convention that former Maryland Lieutenant Governor Michael Steele first used it, arguing the United States needed to become energy independent. The slogan, the result of what Michael describes as a late-night epiphany, quickly entered the mainstream of American politics - adopted by a range of politicians in the years that followed. He shares his memories of that moment with Marco Silva.This programme contains archive from: C-SPAN, PBS Newshour, Fox News, and CNN.Eye-witness accounts brought to life by archive.

    Caitlin Clark has taken on the legacy of LeBron James, the old king, and has become the new "Woman King." This is a story about our values — traditional values. There is a strong desire for the "girl next door." The same desire exists for the "boy next door," but people seem hesitant to embrace it. Whitlock will explain why hip-hop is dead and the Morgan Wallen concert walkout is being hailed as one of the highest honors in culture. Popular figures like Drake, Roger Clemens, and Brett Favre joined him in this walkout, along with Mahomes and Kelce in Kansas City. We are witnessing a cultural shift that is evident in both sports and music. A recent New York Times piece by John Kosner compares Caitlin to legends like Muhammad Ali, Michael Jordan, and Tiger Woods. In other news, Caitlin Clark led the WNBA All-Star voting with 1.2 million votes and sold out her Kobe shoes in seconds. Rich Paul is pushing for a potential trade for LeBron James, but the Lakers are not paying attention. Has he lost his relevance? Jay Skapinac discusses whether Kobe Bryant is overrated and the decline of LeBron James. Lastly, Steve Kim joins to talk about the Jalen Ramsey trade — was it a good idea for the Steelers to give up Minkah for Ramsey and a tight end?  ​​Today's Sponsors: Flying Ace Whether you're winding down after a long day or raising a glass with good company, Flying Ace delivers every time.

Not everything's the same, but the fundamentals are." "I think it's just the way I'm wired and it's what I love about the job is just always trying to find ways to get better. And then if we can't find ways to get better, then let's try to find ways to keep doing what we're doing more efficiently or find ways to just give people better balance in life or whatever it may be." "He's the Michael Jordan of Superintendents, and he's the most humble person you will find." "I could not be more proud of how these guys responded and it was really incredible to see. It wasn't without its hiccups. I mean, everybody invested a lot of time and probably some of them to the detriment of their personal life, the sacrifice that was put forth to put this tournament on.

In the same spirit as the friendship train, he asked families across France to make donations.The response was 52,000 gifts that filled 49 rail wagons or ‘boxcars', one for each US state, and to be distributed to American families.

    The Author Events Series presents Mike Sielski  | Magic in the Air REGISTER In Conversation with Buzz Bissinger The evolution of basketball, and much of the social and cultural change in America, can be traced through one powerful act on the court: the slam dunk. The dunk's history is the story of a sport and a country changed by the most dominant act in basketball, and it makes Magic in the Air a rollicking and insightful piece of narrative history and a surefire classic of sports literature. When basketball was the province of white men, the dunk acted as a revolutionary agent, a tool for players like Wilt Chamberlain and Bill Russell to transform the sport into a Black man's game. The dunk has since been an expression of Black culture amid the righteous upheaval of the civil-rights movement, of the threat that Black people were considered to be to the establishment. It was banned from college basketball for nearly a decade--an attempt to squash the individual expression and athleticism that characterized the sport in America's cities and on its playgrounds. The dunk nevertheless bubbled up to basketball's highest levels. From Julius Erving to Michael Jordan to the high flyers of the 21st century, the dunk has been a key mechanism for growing the NBA into a global goliath. Drawing on deep reporting and dozens of interviews with players, coaches, and other hoops experts, Magic in the Air brings to life the tale of the dunk while balancing sharp socio-racial history and commentary with a romp through American sports and culture. There's never been a basketball book quite like it. MIKE SIELSKI is a columnist for The Philadelphia Inquirer and the author of four books. The Associated Press Sports Editors voted him the country's top sports columnist in 2015, and his previous book, The Rise: Kobe Bryant and the Pursuit of Immortality, was published in 2022. Sielski lives in Bucks County, Pa., with his wife and two sons. Buzz Bissinger is among the nation's most honored and distinguished writers. A native of New York City, Buzz is the winner of the Pulitzer Prize, the Livingston Award, the American Bar Association Silver Gavel Award and the National Headliners Award, among others. He also was a Nieman Fellow at Harvard University. He is the author of the highly acclaimed nonfiction books: Friday Night Lights, A Prayer for the City, Three Nights in August, Shooting Stars and Father's Day. The 2024/25 Author Events Series is presented by Comcast.

Wesley Hunt represents Congressional District 38 in Houston, Texas. A West Point graduate and former Apache helicopter pilot with three master's degrees from Cornell, Hunt served eight years in the Army before entering politics. He recently interviewed for Secretary of Defense and continues to serve on the House Judiciary and Natural Resources committees.

    Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and the Thunder took Game 5 and now lead the series 3-2. With 40 points, Amin's Jalen Williams made a big splash. Meanwhile, Haliburton made zero field goals and his calf injury is a huge detriment to the Pacers' Finals run. Who was that star in the third quarter? God disguised as Michael Jordan disguised as TJ McConnell, that's who! Can he do a good enough Haliburton impression for the Pacers to win Game 6?

    Lina Khan has inspired an unusually bipartisan coalition of allies — and antagonists. As chair of the Federal Trade Commission, she became known as the most hated regulator on Wall Street. As too principled for Donald Trump and Elon Musk. Too bold for Ticketmaster and the NCAA. But Khan isn't done taking on the corporate class — or finding strange bedfellows like Steve Bannon and Michael Jordan. Can her alleged "hipster anti-trust" movement inspire a "standing army" for the people? And could she be our next Supreme Court justice? Learn more about your ad choices.

    In this episode of The Adam Carolla Show, Adam recounts his trip to Palm Springs and how his electric car ran out of battery in the middle of the night. That story sparks a rant about California's looming EV mandate and Gavin Newsom's lawsuit against Trump for canceling it. Adam then tells a hilarious story about “accidentally” giving his vegetarian staff meat tacos and explains his biggest beef with ESPN. He also reacts to a cringeworthy Bill Maher clip featuring Rob Reiner and Amy Klobuchar, and closes out the segment with some sharp observations about Stephen A. Smith's mustache and the possible reasoning behind Michael Jordan's infamous 'stache.In the news, Jason "Mayhem" Miller joins Adam to cover Joe Rogan's claim that two former presidents contacted Spotify over his COVID commentary—which ironically boosted his podcast by 2 million subscribers. They also react to MrBeast's outrageous $500K date night at an empty Disneyland and discuss Candace Cameron Bure's fear that scary movies open portals to Hell. Adam wraps the news segment with a story about the time he was the most terrified in his life, then continues with a breakdown of the recent Indian plane crash. He reacts to a viral video of white protestors blocking a Black woman from getting to work, unleashes a fiery rant on the entitlement of modern-day activists, and explains why he—and Florida Governor Ron DeSantis—believe running over protestors who block traffic might just be justified.

    The NBA Finals are under way between the Oklahoma City Thunder and the Indiana Pacers; however, the spotlight has shifted to the conflict between Stephen A. Smith and superstar Tyrese Haliburton. Additionally, a Barrett Media article has emerged urging companies to emulate Stephen A. Smith if they want to achieve success. Jason Whitlock will deconstruct what is happening at ESPN and explain why it is considered the "misleader" in sports. He suggests that ESPN's connection to hip-hop music is a primary reason for its decline, which has contributed to the ongoing tension. ESPN has also highlighted topics such as Angel Reese vs. Caitlin Clark and LeBron James vs. Michael Jordan, creating drama rather than delivering sports news as it should. Later in the show, Steve Kim will join to discuss Chris Simms and his quarterback rankings. Dak Prescott's mental well-being reportedly hinges on winning a championship this year, while Jalen Hurts seeks advice from Derek Jeter and Michael Jordan on how to secure consecutive championship wins. Finally, it has been reported that Antonio Brown is wanted for attempted murder.
