Other notable inquiries include the implications of bringing a new life into challenging circumstances and the conflict some feel between casual attitudes toward abortion and the serious dilemmas faced by individuals.

Critics remains skeptical of Flock after its founder says measures have been put in place to make sure unauthorized agencies can't access its cameras. The network sparked controversy back in July, when an audit showed that outside agencies conducted hundreds of searches in San Francisco, even though state law prohibits it.

Iraq's new Prime Minster Ali al-Zaidi took his first foreign visit to the US, followed shortly after with a trip to Tehran. A political outsider and a surprise winner of the race to be prime minster, Ali al-Zaidi has a considerable inbox. And at the top is how to guide the country through the ongoing war between Iran and the US, its two closest allies. On top of this, al-Zaidi has launched a crackdown on corruption and his seeking to disarm the myriad of armed groups in the country. This week, we look at the new prime minster and how he came to office, his personal crusades, and the challenges he will face during this time of war. Joining us is Lahib Higel (@LahibHigel), Deputy Program Director for the Middle East and North Africa at the International Crisis Group (@CrisisGroup); and Renad Mansour (@renadmansour), Deputy Director of the Middle East and North Africa Program at Chatham House (@ChathamHouse), and the Director of the Iraq Initiative at Chatham House.

There used to be a middle ground in the Lindsay Clancy case. As of July 9, there isn't one anymore. Prosecutors dropped all three strangulation charges against Lindsay Clancy that day, calling them redundant. What that filing actually did was erase the space between the two remaining verdicts: life without parole, or not criminally responsible. No compromise. No lesser finding for the jury to land on if they're not fully convinced either way. Lindsay is charged with three counts of first-degree murder in the deaths of Cora, five, Dawson, three, and eight-month-old Callan, at their Duxbury, Massachusetts home in January 2023. She's pleading not guilty by reason of insanity. She'd checked herself into a psychiatric hospital on New Year's Eve after telling her husband she was having thoughts of hurting her children. She was discharged. Nineteen days later, the children were dead. Her attorney puts her medication count at roughly thirteen psychiatric drugs across about four months, with a dose increase and a sleepless night the day before it happened. The narrowing didn't stop there. On July 13, the judge blocked women who've survived postpartum psychosis from testifying about the condition in their own words. On July 20, the first morning of jury selection, prosecutors moved to challenge the defense's own experts, the third motion in eleven days aimed at limiting Lindsay's defense. Patrick Clancy, her husband, is on the defense witness list. He's also suing her healthcare providers and has publicly asked people to forgive her. Two jurors were seated by lunch. The trial is expected to run four to eight weeks, and whatever verdict comes out of it, there's no door left open in between. Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/ Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

The political theater will really ramp up this fall. As it does, remember what is important...

In this special episode, brought to you by Lawyers Weekly's sister brand, Defence Connect, from its Contested Ground podcast series, we reflect on whether Australia is moving away from its traditional "sensible centre" towards greater political polarisation. Hosts Phil Tarrant and Major General (Ret'd) Dr Marcus Thompson discuss whether Australia's "sensible" centre will hold as the country faces a populist political surge and the established political parties continue to lose ground, or will decades of failed policies, broken promises, and declining economic opportunities finally come home to roost? The pair also talk about the declining level of trust between Australians and the political class, housing, taxation, and the economic pressures facing younger Australians, and whether Australia is continuing to promote an outdated version of the "Australian Dream" while younger generations face record debt levels, higher living costs, and greater financial uncertainty.

As Australia faces a populist political surge and the established political parties continue to lose ground, can Australia's "sensible" centre hold, or will decades of failed policies, broken promises and declining economic opportunities finally come home to roost? In a departure from its usual international focus, Contested Ground turns to domestic tensions sparked by the federal budget. The hosts argue that this has become a sustained point of public frustration rather than a short-term political issue. Hosts Phil Tarrant and Major General (Ret'd) Dr Marcus Thompson question whether Australia is moving away from its traditional "sensible centre" towards greater political polarisation. A central theme of the discussion is the declining level of trust between Australians and the political class. Dr Thompson argues that governments increasingly risk creating division through policies and political strategies that focus on wedge issues rather than building consensus. The conversation references debates, including the Voice referendum and responses to international crises, as examples of issues that have contributed to heightened social tension. The discussion also turns to housing, taxation and the economic pressures facing younger Australians. Tarrant raises concerns that government policy settings, including changes affecting self-managed super funds and capital gains tax arrangements, may have unintentionally reduced investment capacity and worsened housing supply pressures. The hosts question whether Australia is continuing to promote an outdated version of the "Australian Dream" while younger generations face record debt levels, higher living costs and greater financial uncertainty. Ultimately, the episode explores a bigger question: is Australia experiencing a fundamental shift in its national identity and political culture? The hosts suggest the country may be moving away from the traditional "sensible centre" that has defined much of modern Australian politics towards a more divided environment, where competing extremes increasingly dominate public debate. They warn that maintaining social cohesion will become harder if political leadership continues to prioritise short-term political advantage over long-term national unity. The episode concludes with a call for a renewed style of leadership – one focused less on political point-scoring and more on honesty, transparency and bringing Australians together to confront the economic and strategic challenges ahead.

Ken previews his looming on-air clash with Daryl Ruiter over the Shedeur Sanders quarterback debate, pushing back on the idea that he's leading some "Shedeurian" cult. The setup has Ken arguing that both Daryl and Jason's all-or-nothing takes ignore how things actually work in an NFL locker room, especially with Andrew Berry's view that quarterbacks are a precious resource. The bottom line: Ken says if Deshaun Watson wins the job, fine, but cutting Sanders over it makes zero sense after everything the Browns have invested in him.

In this episode, I'm diving into the middle ground of leadership: how great managers handle workplace conflict without avoiding it or exploding.From emotional reactions and delayed conversations to clarity, accountability, and trust, this is a conversation about what healthy conflict actually looks like. If you've ever struggled with difficult conversations or found yourself swinging between silence and frustration, this episode will help you find a steadier approach.What You'll Learn:Why managers tend to avoid conflict or overcorrect emotionallyWhat healthy, productive conflict actually looks like in leadershipA practical framework for handling tension with clarity and steadinessKey Takeaways:Unresolved conflict compounds over time, it rarely disappears on its ownTrust is built when leaders address issues early and calmlyGreat managers focus on alignment and clarity, not emotional reactionCall to Action:Think about one conversation you may be avoiding right now.

In this solo episode, Lisa invites listeners into a deeper exploration of how we relate to discomfort—whether it shows up as sweat, strain, self‑judgment, or the instinct to contract under stress. Through stories from the gym and trauma‑informed insights on titration, conscious input, and nervous‑system safety, she shows how movement becomes a living laboratory for practicing presence, nuance, and “high involvement, low attachment.” This conversation sets the stage for the more concrete intentional‑weight‑loss guidance coming next. Topics Include:Rewriting the Relationship With DiscomfortExercise as a Practice of Embodied SafetyBiology of CourageFinding the Middle Ground[2:22] Lisa opens the episode by inviting listeners to join her on July 12–17 at the Omega Institute, encouraging anyone drawn to this work to register and experience the retreat with her and her guest instructors.[3:18] Lisa reframes her once‑insecure relationship with sweating as purposeful and athletic, and she explains that stress is adaptive; treating exercise as healthy acute stress while practicing high involvement, low attachment so she can work hard, stay safe, and build sustainable resilience in movement and intentional weight loss.[13:36] Lisa shows how bringing a playful at the gym shifts her entire physiology, explaining that the stories she tells herself during movement determine whether her body feels pressured or safe, and that conscious input makes hard work feel lighter, sustainable, and regulated. [16:28] Lisa highlights how self‑judgment becomes an “inner predator” during movement, and she practices discipline as an act of courage and presence rather than shame, choosing compassionate attention and taking responsibility for both her physical actions and the narratives she tells herself so she can work hard while staying emotionally safe. [20:00] Lisa notices how her body can swing from healthy alertness into unnecessary hypervigilance during movement, and she practices focusing without excess tension by relaxing the areas not involved in the exercise—allowing discomfort where it belongs while preventing added contraction everywhere else. [23:49] Lisa practices directing discomfort only to the muscles she's intentionally working while relaxing the rest of her body, using posture and conscious input to stay highly involved in the effort but lightly attached to the outcome—embodying safety, strength, and chosen discomfort through both targeted tension and expansive, empowering body language. [29:28] Lisa practices titration by meeting discomfort in gradual, manageable doses so she stays present rather than overwhelmed, training herself to inhabit the balanced “in‑between” instead of swinging to familiar extremes.[34:12] Lisa rejects both diet and anti‑diet extremes and embraces weight loss as a spiritual, embodied journey—pairing fierce and tender self‑compassion, grounding her choices in genuine care, taking responsibility for emotional and physical actions, and drawing on her 150‑pound transformation to build agency, alignment, and sustainable change.[57:39] Lisa uses a driving metaphor to show that intentional weight loss requires active agency rather than waiting for change to happen on its own.[1:08:41] Lisa wraps up this episode by reminding  listeners that everything she has been teaching around discomfort, safety, agency, and conscious input is preparing them for the upcoming “how‑to” guidance on intentional weight loss.Join Us on Patreon!Embody Peace With Food: A Revolutionary Holistic Approach - Omega Institute: July 12-17, 2026LISA IS NOW ACCEPTING: One-on-One Clients!⁠Purchase the OOTC book of 50 Journal Prompts⁠⁠Leave Questions and Feedback for Lisa via OOTC Pod Feedback Form ⁠Email Lisa: ⁠lisa@lisaschlosberg.com⁠⁠Out of the Cave Merch⁠ - For 10% off use code SCHLOS10Lisa's Socials: Instagram⁠ ⁠Facebook⁠ ⁠YouTube⁠

Sequins on ice? Absolutely. Sequins at brunch? …maybe not. On this episode of Wisdom From the Wardrobe, we kick things off in In the News with a look at the jaw-dropping Olympic figure skating costumes, intricate, hand-embellished masterpieces costing anywhere from $3,500 to $8,000 each (and skaters need three!). It's performance dressing at its most dazzling, and a reminder that sometimes fashion really is a sport. From there, we glide straight into a question far closer to home: How do you look put together without feeling overdressed? Because somewhere between "I just threw this on" and "Why am I dressed for a gala at the grocery store?" lives the sweet spot. In this episode, we unpack: The very real anxiety of being overdressed vs. underdressed Why structure and fit matter more than price tags or trends What actually makes an outfit look polished (hint: it's usually balance) How to look polished without looking try-hard Easy outfit formulas for errands, casual workdays, lunches, and everyday life And why confidence is the most powerful finishing touch We talk about finding your balance, because personal style isn't about perfection, It's about intentionality. Looking put together doesn't require more effort; it requires clarity. We also bust the myth of "effortless style." Effortless isn't accidental; it's edited. If you've ever stood in front of your closet wondering how to look polished every day without feeling overdone, this episode gives you practical tools, real-life outfit formulas, and a mindset shift that makes getting dressed feel easier, and a lot more fun. Because style isn't a performance, It's communication. And when you find your balance, you don't have to overthink it — you just show up.

The March 2 edition of the AgNet News Hour featured part two of an in-depth conversation with gubernatorial candidate Elaine Culotti, who continued outlining her vision for California's future — particularly when it comes to infrastructure, small farms, property rights, and regulatory reform. Culotti, running with No Party Preference, emphasized that California voters are tired of partisan extremes. She argued the state is fundamentally “purple,” filled with hardworking residents who want practical solutions rather than political theatrics. According to Culotti, both major parties have drifted too far from common-sense governance, and she believes leadership in the middle is the only way to stabilize the state. A major topic of discussion was infrastructure. High-speed rail once again surfaced as a flashpoint issue. Culotti suggested that private industry, rather than government bureaucracy, could complete large projects more efficiently. While debate continues over whether the rail project should move forward at all, the broader message was clear: California must prioritize roads, freight corridors, and functional infrastructure that directly supports agriculture and commerce. Small farmers were also front and center. Culotti highlighted the roughly 80,000 farms in California under 200 acres and questioned why so many struggle to remain profitable. Rising input costs, packaging expenses, and regulations are squeezing producers, while farmgate prices often fail to keep pace. She called for policies that empower small operators rather than burden them with additional compliance hurdles. Property rights emerged as another key concern, particularly in reference to legal battles facing agricultural families in areas like Point Reyes. Culotti criticized what she described as excessive litigation and regulatory pressure, arguing that landowners should not be forced into endless legal fights that ultimately drive them out of business. Insurance reform also entered the conversation, with Culotti stating that California's rising premiums and shrinking coverage options are harming farmers, truckers, and homeowners alike. She encouraged voters to research down-ballot races — including insurance commissioner — rather than voting solely along party lines. Hosts Nick Papagni and Josh McGill echoed a broader theme throughout the program: California agriculture remains strong, but policy decisions in Sacramento have created serious challenges across water, freight, labor, and energy sectors. Whether discussing infrastructure, immigration, or small business survival, the underlying question remains the same — can the state shift toward pragmatic leadership before more farms and families leave? As Culotti put it, California still has all the ingredients for success. The debate now centers on whether leadership can restore balance and accountability in time.

What does it actually mean to use AI and still feel like yourself? In this episode, Jill breaks down her personal approach to AI — not the flashy, let-it-do-everything version, but a quieter, more honest one. If you've ever felt uneasy about AI but couldn't quite explain why, this one's for you.Top Topics Covered:1. Why AI Makes So Many of Us Uncomfortable It's usually not about being afraid of technology. Most people are really worried about three things: taking jobs from others, getting fed fake information, or pretending to be someone they're not. Naming that discomfort is the first step.2. The "Jill Method" of Using AI Three simple rules for using AI without losing yourself: use it as a mirror, not a mask. Let it reflect your thinking back to you — not replace it. The moment it starts covering for you instead of clarifying you, that's the line.3. AI Isn't New — We Just Didn't Call It That Remember when Amazon started suggesting books you might like? That was AI. It's been woven into our lives for a long time. What's changed is how smart and conversational it's become — not what it fundamentally is.4. The Job Question Nobody Wants to Answer Yes, AI will change some jobs. The internet did too. But the internet also created millions of jobs no one could have imagined in 1990. History gives us reason to be cautious — and reason not to panic.5. Using AI to Think Better, Not Less The best use of AI isn't outsourcing your ideas — it's sharpening them. Use it to find holes in your thinking, practice hard conversations, organize your thoughts, or understand something confusing. It's the assistant you could never afford to hire.Takeaway: This episode isn't anti-AI or blindly pro-AI. It's about finding your own honest middle ground. Tools don't steal your authorship — abdicating your thinking does. When AI helps you become a clearer, stronger version of yourself, that's exactly what it's for. And when it starts to feel like a mask? That's when Jill puts it down.Jill's Linkshttp://jillfromthenorthwoods.comhttps://www.youtube.com/@startwithsmallstepshttps://www.buymeacoffee.com/startwithsmallstepshttps://twitter.com/schmernEmail the podcast at jill@startwithsmallsteps.comBy choosing to watch this video or listen to this podcast, you acknowledge that you are doing so of your own free will.

Can intuitive eating and weight loss exist at the same time… especially after having kids? In this episode of Nutrition for Mamas, postpartum dietitian Brooke Miller talks with board-certified psychiatrist Dr. Stefanie Reinald about the real, nuanced middle ground between intuitive eating and wanting to lose weight as a mom. If you've ever felt: • Guilty for wanting your jeans to fit again • Confused by anti-diet culture • Uncomfortable in your postpartum body • Afraid to track food but unsure what your body needs • Told you must “accept your body” even when you don't feel healthy This conversation is for you. We discuss: • What intuitive eating actually gets right • Where intuitive eating can miss the mark for moms • Why wanting weight loss is not automatically unhealthy • How nourishing your body can naturally support fat loss • Protein and fiber needs for postpartum moms • Hormones, set-point weight, and metabolism after pregnancy • When tracking food helps vs when it hurts • Why the scale is neutral (but not always helpful) • GLP-1 medications and modern weight culture • How to feel more comfortable in your body today • Healthy motivation vs punishment mindset Dr. Reinald shares clinical insight from working with women with eating disorders, postpartum mental health struggles, and hormone imbalances, along with her personal experience as a mom of four. This episode is Part 2 of our burnout series. Watch Part 1 for burnout, hormones, ADHD in moms, and exhaustion after baby.

This is a different kind of episode than is typical; there's no book, no central text, not even a single, central event that guides the conversation. Instead, we begin with a few recent news items—speculation about Trump 2028, Speaker Mike Johnson's refusal to swear in a Democratic congresswoman, the stunning abdication of Congress as the shutdown continues, and, incredibly, a secretive billionaire and Mellon heir donates over a hundred million dollars to pay the military, among others—and then lay out our profound worries about Trump ruling by decree, and the coming of MAGA-style Caeserism. How and when might that occur? We discuss troubling signals the Trump administration is sending about upcoming elections, and especially the 2026 midterms; the ticking time bomb that is the Insurrection Act; how the right thinks about executive power (then and now), and more.Sources:Peter Rothpletz, "Trump's Third Term?"
