Dr. Jack Stockwell, a NUCCA Chiropractor and GAPS Practitioner in SLC, UT (866.867.5070 | ForbiddenDoctor.com | JackStockwell.com), covers the the biggest news in the health and wellness space from a holistic, naturopath perspective. In this episode, the discussion focuses on a young patient he's treating for Dyspraxia, also known as Developmental Coordination Disorder (DCD), which is a neuro-developmental disorder that affects motor coordination and movement, and how is work on her nervous system from a structural nature has been beneficial for the young patient's movement and ability to walk without clumsiness.Next, Dr. Jack discusses a study recently published from West Virginia University and Morgan State University on coffee's positive association with better health and the potential for longer life. Apparently, people who drink 3-5 cups of coffee a day have a 10-15% lower risk of death from any cause. Even in cases of decaf coffee, there was still found to be a decreased risk for diabetes-related death. However, this only holds true for black coffee drinkers, not those who add creamers and sugars, etc. and organic beans are preferred. Additionally, you can add some grass-fed butter or ghee to your coffee for added benefits while having the coffee still considered to be black coffee.Moving on, Dr, Jack addresses the ketogenic diet (AKA Keto Diet), a diet that generate ketones and why they're beneficial for the brain and the heart.Rounding out the conversation, Doug joins Dr. Jack, starting with the discussion of what a NUCCA chiropractor is and how they work. Plus, the gentlemen discuss the importance of hobbies and why having some is important to mental and emotional health. Website: GoodDayHealthrShow.com Social Media: @GoodDayNetworks

Welcome to Pop & Politics, where celebrity scandals collide with political firestorms!

La historia de nuestro país también ha sido negra. Las personas de origen africano y afrodescendiente han vivido en la península ibérica desde tiempos remotos; son parte de nuestra identidad, aunque no han faltado esfuerzos por borrar su huella. Durante la Edad Media representaban cerca de un octavo de los habitantes. La expulsión de los moriscos en el siglo XVII redujo el peso de la herencia genética norteafricana, si bien más de dos millones de personas esclavizadas llegaron a vivir en España durante el período de la Edad Moderna antes de la abolición de la trata. Una población que no siempre ha estado en los márgenes: figuras como Juan de Valladolid, el catedrático Juan Latino o la cirujana Elena de Céspedes alcanzaron notable reconocimiento pese al color de su piel. En este documental, con guion de Minerva Oso y diseño sonoro de Mayca Aguilera, participan Antumi Toasije, historiador y profesor en la Universidad de Nueva York; Esther "Mayoko" Ortega, investigadora y activista afrofeminista; Gonzalo Hernández Baptista, profesor de estudios de la diáspora en la Morgan State University; Esther García Ejome, docente e investigadora en el proyecto España Negra; Gonzalo Oteo García, doctor en arqueogenética; Jesús Cosano, escritor especialista en la presencia negra en España; y Boni Ofogo, narrador oral. El programa recorre también las calles de Madrid y Sevilla, donde las asociaciones Conciencia Afro y Sevilla Negra organizan rutas guiadas para rescatar este legado del olvido.Escuchar audio

In mid‑2023, Morgan State University launched an internal investigation into Associate Professor of Mathematics Dr. Jonathan Farley after news emerged that he had independently reached out to Jeffrey Epstein—then jailed on sex trafficking charges—in July 2019. In a highly self-serving email, Farley requested a $5 million donation from Epstein to fund an endowed chair for women in mathematics, suggesting this act could rehabilitate Epstein's public image and even likening it to avoiding a conviction akin to Bill Cosby's. He also implied that such a contribution would generate support within the Black community. Crucially, university officials emphasized that Farley had acted alone and without institutional approval, stressing that Morgan State had neither solicited Epstein nor empowered any employee to do so.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:A Math Professor Suggested a Jailed Jeffrey Epstein Give Him Money to Repair His Image in the Black Community (vice.com)Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

“One of the biggest symbols of America is Mount Rushmore. This monument, right? But I think most people fail to realize where it's located and why it's located there. Even more importantly, who did it? It's on a sacred Native American mountain, a place that was central to their creation stories. But then you think about who did it, and it was a Klansman. The guy who sculpted Mount Rushmore was a Klansman. People were like, "Wait, really?" Like, how is that a thing? But it seeps into our understanding and our embrace of white supremacy.

We are honoring slave owners and people who viciously killed natives, and those who pillage other lands in the name of capitalism. That's what America is, I guess.I think there's such a disinterest in education in America that it is sickening. We can't even agree on facts. It's up to states' rights to decide. Really? States can say that this is true in one state, but it's not true in another? Although these states are united, it's very bizarre. I'm hopeful for revolution. I'm optimistic. I want radical change. I think we are repeating history. We are going through a cycle of fascism and greed, and I think we're going to see a lot of states collapse. As a result of that, I think people are going to be forced back to their primal needs and concerns, but I think they're going to be forced to think about what makes us human. How do we become more human? Because we've lost that. We've given it up to technology. How can we figure out what makes us a really powerful species again?”Irvin Weathersby Jr. is a Brooklyn-based writer and professor from New Orleans.

“One of the biggest symbols of America is Mount Rushmore. This monument, right? But I think most people fail to realize where it's located and why it's located there. Even more importantly, who did it? It's on a sacred Native American mountain, a place that was central to their creation stories. But then you think about who did it, and it was a Klansman. The guy who sculpted Mount Rushmore was a Klansman. People were like, "Wait, really?" Like, how is that a thing? But it seeps into our understanding and our embrace of white supremacy.

Rod Jones is a project manager for Holder Construction in Ashburn, Virginia. But even as he is progressing in his own career – ENR named him a Top 20 Under 40 in 2024 – he's acutely aware of attracting more people to the profession and helping others follow his path. He's an adjunct professor at his alma mater, Morgan State University, and his online “Rod the Builder” lifestyle brand – through YouTube and social media – inspires young professionals and students to find their passion in the STEM fields too. In episode 178 of ASCE Plot Points, Jones talks about how he found his way into construction management and why it's so important to him to share that story with others.

Many people who work in Academia have had the stink of Jeffrey Epstein wafting from them throughout the years. Not many of them have brazenly owned the way that a professor from Morgan State University has. Enter Jonathan Farley. Jonathan Farley, according to his email to a jailed Jeffrey Epstein in 2019, had no problem appealing to Jeffrey Epstein for a donation and for that donation the Professor offered to a voice of support for Jeffrey Epstein and to help Jeffrey Epstein refurbish his image. His donation would also garner him a spot at the University as "The Jeffrey Epstein Chair for the Promotion of Women in Mathematics." The University has denied ever taking donations from Epstein and there is no record that it received anything from the now dead convicted sex offender. to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:A Math Professor Suggested a Jailed Jeffrey Epstein Give Him Money to Repair His Image in the Black Community (vice.com)Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Last January the hedge fund Alden Global Capital sold The Baltimore Sun to David Smith, an executive at Sinclair Broadcast Group. Smith once told Trump that Sinclair was "here to deliver your message.” He is also known to support conservative causes like Moms for Liberty. It's been a year and with the release of new circulation numbers, its clear that whatever Smith is doing at the Sun, isn't working: Circulation is down, web traffic is down, journalists are leaving in the their droves. After the sale went through last year, we spoke to Milton Kent, professor of practice in the School of Global Journalism and Communication at Morgan State University and Liz Bowie, who worked at The Sun for over 30 years before making the jump to the nonprofit, the Baltimore Banner.  On the Media is supported by listeners like you.
