Would you date an artificial intelligence companion? James Muldoon did.
What happens when you match into a residency but it still feels like a loss? Kathleen Muldoon is a coach and medical educator with 20 years of experience partnering with medical students through some of training's most high-stakes moments. In this episode, based on her KevinMD article "What Match Day teaches us about unexpected life paths," she unpacks the hidden emotional weight of Match Day, the moment when a plain white envelope determines what kind of doctor you get to be. You will hear about the student who quietly told her "you won't understand" because they did match but not into the future they had pictured, and why that subtle disappointment deserves just as much space as celebration. Muldoon explains how medical training conditions future physicians to perform success while hiding vulnerability, widening a gap between personhood and performance that fuels physician burnout later in careers. She shares coaching techniques that help students stop treating feedback as an indictment of identity and start treating it as useful data, a skill that translates directly to sitting with patients whose lab results bring unwelcome news. If you work with trainees or remember your own moment of tearing open that envelope, this conversation reframes disappointment as an invitation rather than a verdict. Tune into our episode "2026 Cholesterol Guidelines: LDL goals, lipoprotein(a), and coronary calcium scoring," brought to you by Novartis Pharmaceuticals Corporation. For the first time in eight years, LDL cholesterol goals have changed, and preventive cardiologist Seth Baum says the new guidelines are a long-overdue course correction. He breaks down the new LDL targets for your highest-risk patients, why the LDL hypothesis should be retired in favor of the LDL fact, why lipoprotein(a) screening finally belongs in every patient's workup, what a coronary calcium score over 300 really means for how aggressively you treat, and how to talk to statin-skeptical patients without losing their trust.

Barry Soper is a name and certainly a voice that’s recognisable across New Zealand. After decades in the Beehive, Soper put pen to paper outlining his time covering 12 Prime Ministers, from Muldoon to Luxon. He blends personal stories, policy critiques, and behind-the-scenes tales ... like Muldoon’s drunken Schnapps election call, Lange’s antics in Africa, and Bolger’s mimicry habits. As former PM John Key wrote in one of the book’s forewords, “Barry knew, and still knows, where the bones are buried”. The other foreword is penned by Helen Clark. Barry Soper joins The Front Page to discuss how political reporting has changed over the years, and where he thinks it’s headed.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
On today's Morning Edition, the Anchorage Assembly took up the topic of feeding eagles and its questionable legality after a tree in Muldoon grew quite popular with its eagle residency. We'll fill you in on the discussion and changes. Plus, the sky is the limit when you have a goal, motivation and opportunity. Some students from Golden View Middle School were able to perform on one of the nation's most iconic stages at Carnegie Hall. But that future may be in jeopardy moving forward. We'll discuss why.

From friendship, to romance, to even therapy, AI companions are on the rise, and AI companion apps alone have now been downloaded more than 220 million times worldwide. Oxford Internet Institute researcher James Muldoon takes us on a captivating and uncanny journey to the frontier of human-computer interaction, exploring what happens to our relationships with each other as artificial intelligence enters our personal lives. “They are real to me” may be the growing sentiment, but what are the tensions and contradictions at the heart of AI companionship? James explores what it means to be human in a world increasingly dominated by these sorts of relationships—what do we gain, and what do we lose? Crucially, what can we do to fulfil other people's emotional needs so they don't turn to AI? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
What happens when medical students witness dehumanization during clinical rotations but feel too powerless to speak up? Kathleen Muldoon, a certified coach and professor in medical education, joins the show to unpack why moral courage is a skill you can practice right now, not something to defer until you hold a title. Based on her KevinMD article "Moral courage in medical training: the power of the powerless," this conversation reveals how the hidden curriculum in medical training quietly normalizes harm through small, unreported moments. You will hear practical strategies for reclaiming power in clinical hierarchies, from stating your own name to recentering a patient in grand rounds with a single clarifying question. Muldoon explains why kicking moral concerns down the line fuels burnout and erodes professional identity formation, and how attendings can foster psychological safety by modeling vulnerability. If you are a medical student, resident, or physician who has ever felt the gap between what health care should be and what it is, this episode will remind you that middle power is still power.

We continue in the final decade of the pioneer era of pro wrestling and the biggest star of the pioneer era, William Muldoon, has his last pro wrestling match in New York. Another veteran pioneer wrestler, John McMahon, has his last match as well. Still earlier pioneers like Col. James H. McLaughlin and Homer Lane continue to wrestler periodically, but it is now the era of Evan 'Strangler' Lewis and Farmer Burns is on the rise as well. The 1890s were an incredible era in pro wrestling history that set the stage for what American pro wrestling would become in the 1900s. YOU CONTROL THIS SERIES!

What is trauma? Conversations about trauma often focus on individual experiences. But trauma can also be shaped by social and political contexts, affecting entire communities as well as the people within them. In this episode, Professor Rory O'Connor interviews Professor Orla Muldoon, Head of Department and Professor of Psychology at Queen's University Belfast. Her research explores the links between identity, conflict, and trauma, with a particular focus on how social and political contexts shape psychological experiences. They discuss how trauma can be understood not only as an individual experience but also as something shaped by social and collective contexts. The conversation explores what makes social trauma distinct, how it can affect communities as well as individuals, and what the latest research reveals about its long-term impacts. Orla also shares insights from her work on how understanding the social dimensions of trauma can help inform more effective responses in research, policy, and mental health support.

This week on my 1000 Hours podcast series which focuses exclusively on pre-Frank Gotch era pro wrestling, we finish out the 1880s and enter the last decade of the pioneer era of pro wrestling. Taken from my popular book DragonKingKarl's Pioneer Era Pro Wrestling Omnibus, we look at the final days of William Muldoon as a pro wrestler. Muldoon began losing interest in pro wrestling after the more entertainment based Greco-Roman wrestling declined in popularity, replaced by the rougher and more vicious style of Catch-as-Catch-Can and the rise of Evan 'Strangler' Lewis. Muldoon began casting his lot more and more with boxing, particularly pioneer boxer John L. Sullivan and, well, let's just say that didn't go very well and ended with each insulting the other in the newspapers and Sullivan accusing Muldoon of being (aghast!) a GOVERNMENT RAT!

While Big Tech promotes AI as a frictionless technology that will bring wealth and prosperity, James Muldoon exposes a different reality hidden beneath this surface: a precarious global workforce of millions that make AI possible. He examines the power structures that govern digital work and explains what we need to do to build a more just digital future. He is in conversation with Aida Garcia-Lazaro. This Institute for Policy Research event took place on 12 March 2026.
A Saturday avalanche near Girdwood leaves one man injured. And it wasn't the only avalanche in the area as dangerous conditions continue. Details about what happened on max's mountain. Plus, a fire fighter is injured and multiple residents are taken to the hospital after a Muldoon mobile home fire. We hear about the response.
William Muldoon got about a 25-year head start on Frank Gotch's gimmick of returning from 'retirement' multiple times and about a 100-year head start on Terry Funk. William Muldoon had begun suffering from nagging hand and arm injuries and a severe downturn in the popularity of pro wrestling, especially French Greco-Roman style of which he was the dominate master. Evan 'Strangler' Lewis and the rise of Catch-as-Catch-Can wrestling was beginning to dominate the scene. All the ingredients are starting to set the stage for the coming of Frank Gotch. Martin 'Farmer' Burns is now on the scene and soon Tom Jenkins will be as well. Jack Carkeek gets in legal trouble and will become no stranger to it. YOU CONTROL THIS SERIES!

Today on my 1000 Hours podcast covering the pioneer era of pro wrestling we enter a new era. Evan Lewis is now The Strangler. Crowds find him barbaric and national opinion has swung from pro wrestling being a con game to it being a brutal sport. Concurrent with the rise of Strangler Lewis is the fall of William Muldoon. Near the same time, Muldoon, nursing a nagging hand and arm injury announces his first of many retirements and the original 1870 Detroit International champion Col. James H. McLaughlin again leaves the sport to return to the railroad. Things are changing. YOU CONTROL THIS SERIES! It will only run as long as it is supported.

It is over ten years since the release of Spike Jonze's film Her, in which a lonely man begins a relationship with a computer programme voiced by Scarlett Johansson. Since then, AI companions have surged in popularity. A new generation is now growing up with large language models and the chatbots they power, with AI entities playing the role of friends, lovers, mentors and therapists. If this all feels like a Black Mirror episode come to life, says author James Muldoon, you are not far off the mark. For a new book, Love Machines, he has talked to hundreds of users, developers, psychologists — and synthetic personas — to understand this new world of human-AI relationships. In this episode, he talks to Carl Miller about these new forms of love, intimacy and connection; the unregulated corporations seeking to profit from the ‘loneliness economy'; and what the rise of artificial intelligence in our personal lives might mean for our relationships with one another. James Muldoon is a sociologist whose work explores the human side of artificial intelligence and other technologies. His new book, Love Machines, is available to buy now.

Episodio 596 con Francesca e Luca ai microfoni per una scorpacciata di notizie scientifiche dal defunto 2025. Iniziamo con gennaio 2025, quando è stato eseguito il secondo trapianto di un rene geneticamente modificato negli Stati Uniti.Ad aprile la Colossal Biosciences ha riportato in vita tre esemplari di enocione (o lupo terribile), un canide vissuto durante il Pleistocene. Per farlo, ha sequenziato il suo genoma da un dente di enocione di 13.000 anni fa e da un cranio di enocione di 72.000 anni fa, apportato 20 modifiche al DNA di lupo grigio per creare alcuni tratti fisici dell'enocione. A maggio è uscito sul New England Journal of Medicine probabilmente uno studio sul (https://doi.org/10.1056/NEJMoa2504747) primo trattamento personalizzato di editing genetico CRISPR eseguito su un bimbo di neanche un anno affetto da una patologia genetica molto rara. Il bimbo si chiama K.J. Muldoon ed è affetto dal deficit di CPS1, dove CPS sta per carbamoil-fosfato sintetasi 1, un enzima che trasforma l'ammoniaca in carbamoil-fosfato.Nell'esterna di oggi, Leonardo intervista Stefano Della Torre, ricercatore INFN che ci parla di come usando delle GPU (delle schede grafiche) siano riusciti a ridurre moltissimo il tempo necessario per risolvere i modelli che descrivono il comportamento dei raggi cosmici. Dopo una barza terribile, ritorniamo in studio. A giugno 2025 sono usciti due studi (https://doi.org/10.1126/science.adu9677 e https://doi.org/10.1016/j.cell.2025.05.040) in cui si analizzava un cranio quasi completo, risalente al 146000 anni fa, trovato in Cina nord-orientale e soprannominato cranio dell'“Uomo Drago”. (https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC8454562/).Un altro bel risultato per quanto riguarda le malattie genetiche l'ha ottenuto Sarah Tabrizi che, a settembre 2025, ha dichiarato il successo della sua gene-targeting therapy che potrebbe rallentare la progressione dalla malattia di Huntington (https://uniqure.gcs-web.com/news-releases/news-release-details/uniqure-announces-positive-topline-results-pivotal-phase-iii).Ad ottobre, invece, il giornale Psychiatric News ha pubblicato un report in cui veniva segnalata una nuova psicosi, chiamata “Psicosi indotta da IA” (https://doi.org/10.1176/appi.pn.2025.10.10.5). Si tratta di un nuovo disturbo neurologico per cui le persone iniziano a scambiare una chatbot per un essere cosciente, sviluppando allucinazioni, deliri e una vera e propria confusione della realtà.Da novembre 2025 il Canada non è più considerato un Paese libero dal morbillo. Molto probabilmente seguiranno a ruota gli Stati Uniti, per i quali il numero di casi è in largo aumento, con circa 2000 casi confermati in 43 paesi nel solo 2025. Purtroppo questa tendenza ad eludere l'obbligo vaccinale è in aumento, specialmente dopo il Covid-19 e le dichiarazioni di alcuni consulenti sanitari del governo americano di evitare la vaccinazione infantile contro l'epatite B. Tornando alla notizia del morbillo, ricordiamo che il vaccino contro morbillo, parotite e rosolia è estremamente efficace e protegge dal morbillo per tutta la vita, quindi mi raccomando: VACCINATEVI!Concludiamo l'episodio con due belle notizie leggere.Nello specifico di larve di mosconi che confondono le termiti con la loro culo-faccia (https://doi.org/10.1016/j.cub.2025.01.007), esponendo un posteriore mimetico che le confonde tra le termiti per "scroccare" vitto e alloggio.Se non lo sapevate, gli axolotl – che sono delle salamandre con caratteristiche neoteniche, ovvero è una specie che conserva caratteristiche morfologiche e fisiologiche tipiche dei giovani per tutta la vita, e con straordinarie capacità rigenerative – sono una specie a rischio di estinzione. Fortunatamente, però, alcuni ricercatori dell'Università Nazionale Autonoma del Messico sono riusciti ad introdurre axolotl allevati in cattività nel loro habitat naturale, i quali sono sopravvissuti, il che consentirebbe di ripopolare la popolazione selvatica (https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0314257).Diventa un supporter di questo podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/scientificast-la-scienza-come-non-l-hai-mai-sentita--1762253/support.
Gone By Lunchtime is taking a break over summer. We'll be back soon with new episodes but, until then, here's one of our favourites from 2025: After the breakneck reforms of the 80s, Jim Bolger's promise of a calmer, more inclusive New Zealand hits the spot. Emerging from the shadow of Muldoon and shaking off the nuclear baggage, Bolger leads the National Party to a landslide victory under the “decent society” banner. But even before the celebrations are done, the hangover hits: the state-owned BNZ is on the brink, and the government books are in a parlous state. Ruth Richardson wastes no time as finance minister in making the most of crisis mode, and within weeks is driving through some of the most dramatic social, economic and labour reforms New Zealand has ever seen. Picking up where the award-winning first season of Juggernaut left off, this first episode includes new and exclusive interviews with Jim Bolger, Ruth Richardson, Jenny Shipley, Don McKinnon, Bill Birch, Michael Wall, Rob Eaddy, Michael Laws and more. Juggernaut 2 was made with the support of NZ On Air. This episode was originally published on November 11 2025. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Today on my 1000 Hours podcast series which focuses on the pioneer era of pro wrestling, two of the biggest stars of the era head to court for very different reasons. First, William Muldoon is arrested and hauled to court for slapping a security guard upside the head and calling him a dirty loafer for daring to tell Muldoon to move along. While the Muldoon trial was largely humorous, we see the dark side of Japanese wrestler Matsada Sorakichi who, freshly married, has already began abusing his wife. Amongst all the legal happenings there is actual pro wrestling going on as Col. James H. McLaughlin continues his return and faces a very violent man.

On this episode of the DragonKingKarl Classic Wrestling Show 1000 Hours podcast series we finally get not one but TWO matches between the two biggest stars of the pioneer era of pro wrestling. William Muldoon had not previously wrestled Col. James H. McLaughlin mainly because Muldoon was not a fan of collar and elbow wrestling nor did McLaughlin consider Greco Roman his style. But Muldoon has now been largely disgraced on the west coast and crowds aren't what they used to be so the two finally had two matches... which were flops. YOU CONTROL THIS SERIES!

Thom Gunn's career as an elegist was tied closely to the onset of the Aids epidemic in the 1980s, during which he saw many of his friends die. Despite loosening his early formalism after absorbing the work of the New American Poets, Gunn's vision of the poet was not as a confessional diarist but rather a careful stylist of well-wrought verse drawing on the traditions of Fulke Greville and Ben Jonson. In this episode, Seamus and Mark look at elegies including ‘Talbot Road', ‘The Gas-poker' and others from his celebrated collection The Man with Night Sweats, where Gunn combined this allusive, rhetorical style with a poignant realism to recreate his subjects. They then turn to the more self-reflexive, oblique elegies of Paul Muldoon, who has reinvented the form in richly-patterned, playful poems such as ‘The Soap Pig' and ‘Incantata'.

The 1000 Hours podcast series looks back at the pioneer era of pro wrestling, the era before Frank Gotch. On this episode, pro wrestling historian Karl Stern takes a look into the 1880s as William Muldoon wraps up his tenure in California with a debacle of a worked match against Clarence Whistler that turned into a double cross. Whistler was supposed to go to a draw against Muldoon but decided to take it the distance. Muldoon then gives up on the west coast and heads back to New York but first stops in the wild west town of Tombstone, AZ. This match marked a real shift in the pioneer era of wrestling, and the history of pro wrestling would forever change. YOU CONTROL THIS SERIES! It will only run as long as it is supported.

A mood of protest sweeps New Zealand in 1991, sometimes spilling over into violence, as the reform machine powers on. Benefits are slashed, the Employment Contracts Act fundamentally reshapes the labour market, the health system is restructured, and Jim Bolger U-turns on a “no ifs, no buts, no maybes” promise around superannuation. Here Ruth Richardson tells the story of the Mother of All Budgets – what she was hoping to achieve, and how it got that indelible name. In a whirlwind first year of government, Richardson takes some drastic steps. And National's challenges come not just from outside, but from within – Muldoon continues to lurk the halls, and there's a charismatic, increasingly popular young MP making trouble, too: Winston Peters. Includes new and exclusive interviews with Jim Bolger, Ruth Richardson, Jenny Shipley, Susan St John, Helen Clark, Bill Birch, Rob Eaddy, Michael Laws and more.

For a group that normally seems to nail ideas and present them well, the New Zealand Initiative this week went off-piste with their "MMP After 30 Years" report. Smaller cabinet - good idea. Get rid of the overhang - good idea! But more MP's? What on Earth are they thinking? The main point they make is that it has provided a fairer, more representative Parliament and I think, even for those of us that didn't vote for MMP, we pretty much would all need to conceed that. The question I would have is, is that what we actually want? The base level argument over representation is, do some of the lesser lights represent a sector of lesser lights in the wider community? If the community has got its collection of halfwits and buffoons, do we want a slice of that in the nation's Parliament because that is a version of representation? I would argue no. I would argue that I'd far rather have a selection of highly qualified, dedicated, hard-working professionals. But if a cross section is what we voted for, then a cross section is what we have received. The great fraud of MMP has been the oft-used line by people like the Green's Rod Donald that the tail would not wag the dog. The tail has most certainly wagged the dog, many times over. If the circumstances are right, and they have been more than once, a very small percentage of the vote can wield an astonishing and destructive amount of power. Then of course if we are marking 30 years, we can also relitigate the issue of knowledge at the time. MMP won not because it was better, or the best, but because MMP had the best run anti-FPP campaign and too many New Zealanders couldn't be bothered educating themselves about the alternatives. So MMP had the biggest headlines and enough people were fed up with Muldoon and Lange and scraps and bulldozing Governments so they threw out the current, in the hope the new was better. We will not change the system again. Those days are gone and I doubt we will ever even tinker with it. But if we do, more MP's will not be top of our wishlist.

William Muldoon was an infamous athlete whose prowess, savvy, and chicanery across his six-decade career led him to wealth, cultural importance, and political power. Muldoon, the child of poor Irish immigrants, began wrestling in the 1870s and quickly became one of the most famous athletes of the post–Civil War era. He started acting and modeling as his popularity grew, making him one of the first sports stars to achieve crossover success. After a triumphant stint rehabilitating fallen boxing heavyweight champion John L. Sullivan in 1889, he retired from the ring and began a new career as a fitness impresario, founding an elite gymnasium and remaking himself as a health authority in the press. He became trainer to the rich, famous, and politically powerful, which led to his appointment as chair of the New York State Athletic Commission in the 1920s. From this position, Muldoon exerted his influence over the rules of boxing and wrestling and weaponized his power to maintain segregation in sport. The Last Gladiator: William Muldoon and the Making of American Sports (U Texas Press, 2025) is a deep, insightful dive into Muldoon's life and impact, demonstrating the significance of this often-controversial figure in the development of American sports, professional wrestling, and physical and popular culture. Paul Knepper covered the New York Knicks for Bleacher Report. His first book was The Knicks of the Nineties: Ewing, Oakley, Starks and the Brawlers That Almost Won It All. His next book, Moses Malone: The Life of a Basketball Prophet, will be out on November 1. You can reach Paul at paulknepper@gmail.com and follow him on Twitter @paulieknep.

“Noncompliance isn't just risky—it can mean lost licenses, lost trust, and lost business,” says Joe Garner of dmarcian. At the MSP Summit in Orlando, Doug Green, Publisher of Technology Reseller News, caught up with Garner and colleague Billy Muldoon to discuss why DMARC—the standard for authenticating email—should be a top priority for MSPs and their clients. Founded by Tim Draegen, the primary author of DMARC, dmarcian's mission is to spread adoption of the open standard across the email ecosystem. DMARC builds on earlier protocols (SPF and DKIM) by providing visibility, daily reports, and strong policy enforcement—giving organizations the ability to stop phishing and spoofing attacks at the domain level. For MSPs, the opportunity is clear: DMARC not only protects customer brands but also creates billable project work and recurring revenue streams. By moving client domains from “none” to “reject” policies, MSPs can deliver compliance, reduce support tickets, and demonstrate measurable value. Muldoon emphasized that while AI dominates industry headlines, DNS and email remain critical points of vulnerability. “Email is still the biggest attack vector,” he said. “MSPs can't overlook DMARC—it's both a defensive necessity and a revenue opportunity.” With Google, Yahoo, and now Microsoft requiring DMARC alignment for bulk senders, enterprises must act or risk delivery failures. dmarcian provides MSPs with the tools to visualize mail streams, track compliance, and guide customers through the journey to strong DMARC policies.

If you took a contemporary poetry class in college in the last 30 years, Paul Muldoon was probably on your syllabus. The New York Times has called him “one of the great poets of the past hundred years. . . . Only Yeats before him could write with such measured fury.” The Times Literary Supplement referred to Muldoon as “the most significant English-language poet born since the Second World War.” He's a Pulitzer Prize winner, a former poetry editor at The New Yorker, and currently a professor at Princeton University. But Muldoon has a side gig as a songwriter, which is why he's here. So if you're a writer in any capacity, songwriter or not, listen to this episode as we go deep into the writing process of one of the most significant poets of the past hundred years. The latest album by Paul Muldoon & Rogue Elephant is Visible From Space.
It took a horrible murder for Alaska to revise its statutes for the criminally insane from some of the most lenient sentencing laws in the country to the strictest laws in the U.S. for the insanity defense. On the night of May 3, 1982, one veteran Anchorage police officer was quoted as saying, “This has got to be one of the grisliest nights I've ever seen.” Within an hour, seven people lost their lives. Three died in the Black Bull bar in the Muldoon section of Anchorage, and the other four were shot in Russian Jack Springs Park in East Anchorage. At first, investigators wondered if the two crime scenes were connected, but they soon learned nothing linked the two horrific events. Sources Ice Cold Killers Season Two, Episode One: Blood Red Sun.

What a great conversation with Dr. Timothy Muldoon, who with his wife, Sue, has written a wonderfully rich spiritual resource for today's family entitled "The Discerning Parent: An Iganatius Guide to Raising Your Teen." Fr. Timothy Gallagher said it so well, this is "An engaging book for parents who desire that God be the center of raising their teenage children. Applying Ignatian discernment to this specific task--a valuable contribution--the authors offer clarity and hope to all parents."
