In the movie 1973 film Walking Tall, Sheriff Buford Pusser is a heroic law enforcement officer in small-town Tennessee whose fight against the Dixie Mafia leads to an ambush and shooting that left his beloved wife Pauline dead. The movie and its sequels and remakes made Pusser, who died in a 1974 car crash, into a folk hero. Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson played him in the 2004 Walking Tall remake. The Pusser legend became a cottage industry for Adamsville, Tennessee, where the Buford Pusser Home and Museum is based. Mike Elam, a former law enforcement officer, started researching Pusser's life as a hobby back in the 1970s. Once the internet became an avenue for exploration, "I started a social media page and I was very much a fan of Buford Pusser at that time," Pusser tells Modern Law Library host Lee Rawles. "And it was one of those things where I got to researching it and learned far too much for my own liking, because I did not like the man I saw as opposed to the one that was in the movie." Elam's decades of research and interviews with people who had encountered Pusser led to a book, Buford Pusser: The Other Story. It also led to the Tennessee Bureau of Investigations reopening the case into Pauline Pusser's murder and exhuming her body. In 2025, they announced that the investigation revealed details that pointed to one suspect: Buford Pusser himself. In this episode, Elam discusses his long investigation, tips for other true crime citizen detectives, what he thinks now about the way Buford Pusser has been memorialized–and how he found the gun that killed Pauline.

The exhibition was organized by Jennifer Inacio with the support of Fabiana A. Sotillo. It is on view in Miami through June 28 after which it will travel to the Manetti Shrem Museum of Art, University of California, Davis.

Embracing the “Open” in Open Nesting (Season 6 | Episode 222) with Joy Rose (Season 6 | Episode 222) This week on the Open Nesters podcast, my co-host Amir and I had the absolute pleasure of revisiting a truly boundary-breaking conversation with the incredible Joy Rose. As an artist, activist, and the visionary founder of the Museum of Motherhood, Joy is a master at helping us deconstruct the heavy labels we carry and reclaim the narrative of our own lives. If you are currently navigating your own “Act Three,” this discussion is essential listening for finding your vitality and flipping the script on aging. We dove deep into the complex world of motherhood —to explore how this role often consumes our identity for decades. Joy shares the raw, honest truth about the “redundancy” many of us feel when our children grow older. It can be an almost impossible shift to move from the physical and emotional all-consumption of active parenting to a life where that role is no longer necessary in the same way. Joy's personal journey is a masterclass in finding the “self” at the center of the roles projected onto us. As her own four children have grown into their late twenties and thirties, she has had to learn the difficult art of adjustment, using tools like cultivating her own passions and finding serenity through spiritual programs like Al-Anon. One of the most striking parts of our talk was Joy's take on modern relationships and her rejection of traditional marriage. She spoke beautifully about seeking “great love”—the kind of love that pushes you out of your comfort zone and requires you to show up with integrity and consciousness. It was so illuminating to hear how she and her partner, despite being on opposite ends of the political spectrum, find deep connection through simple kindness and shared values. For those of you looking to explore these themes further, Joy is continuing her work by launching online classes through the Museum of Motherhood website. She encourages everyone, especially “women of a certain age,” to be brave, be expansive, and stop repeating patterns that no longer serve them. Whether it’s through art, study, or simply trying to live on your own, there are so many ways to “show up” for yourself in this new stage of life. We are so grateful to Joy for her wisdom and for helping us “unlabel” the judgments we often place on ourselves and others. As we move forward, I hope you'll join us in witnessing the growth of our families and ourselves with open hearts and fewer expectations.

Jim sits down with Steven Intermill, the manager of the Buckland Museum of Witchcraft in Cleveland, Ohio. Steven shares the unlikely path that led him from museum work of a very different kind to becoming the public steward of one of the most important collections of modern witchcraft artifacts in the United States. Along the way, we explore the legacy of Raymond Buckland, often called the father of American witchcraft, and how Buckland's personal collection evolved into a living museum that attracts visitors from around the world. The conversation moves from history to the deeply human side of belief, touching on ritual objects, folklore, and the stories people bring with them when they walk through the museum doors. Steven reflects on misconceptions surrounding witchcraft, the museum's role as a place of education and welcome, and why certain artifacts carry such emotional weight. There are also lighter, surprising moments involving Ouija boards, haunted objects, and why curiosity, not fear, is often the real gateway into the unknown. This is a thoughtful, behind-the-scenes look at a museum that preserves more than objects. It preserves stories, experiences, and a living spiritual tradition.

Human factors engineer Cynthia Hudy shares what it takes to design a spacecraft around the people who fly it.We explore Cynthia's role designing the human systems inside Orion, from displays and controls to life support, radiation protection, and the everyday realities of living in deep space. We also discuss how astronaut feedback and human-in-the-loop testing are shaping Artemis II, the first crewed Orion mission to carry humans beyond low-Earth orbit since Apollo 17.From engineering for diverse crews to preparing humans for deep-space autonomy, this one is going to be cool!What You'll HearArtemis II is NASA's first crewed mission beyond low Earth orbit since Apollo 17 This 10-day flight around the Moon is the critical proving mission before astronauts return to the lunar surface.Orion is designed like a “tiny house” in deep space Every system inside the capsule is engineered so four astronauts can live, work, sleep, eat, exercise, and respond to emergencies in an extremely confined space.Human factors engineering shapes nearly every design decision Orion is built around human physical and mental limits, treating the crew as an essential part of the spacecraft system—not an afterthought.The interior of Orion is where Artemis II differs most from earlier missions Life support, a functioning bathroom, exercise equipment, food and water systems, and crew-controlled displays are all coming online for the first time.Astronaut testing directly changed how Orion works “Human-in-the-loop” trials led to real design changes, from how doors open in microgravity to how astronauts sleep, move, and access critical systems.Artemis II is the proving ground for future Moon landings and Mars missions What Orion demonstrates about comfort, safety, autonomy, and crew wellbeing will shape Artemis III and long-duration human exploration.Support Wings Over the Rockies non-profit mission to educate and inspier about aerospace: https://wingsmuseum.org/support/donate/

In this episode of The Good Life EDU Podcast, we explore Nebraska 250—the state's effort to commemorate the nation's upcoming semi-quincentennial through learning, creativity, and community connection.We're joined by Bre Wilton, Social Studies Content Specialist at the Nebraska Department of Education; Cody Talarico, Arts Education Specialist at NDE; and Anne Alston, Arts Education Program Specialist at the Nebraska Arts Council. Together, they unpack how a cross-agency collaboration led to the My Nebraska, Our America Public Art Design Challenge, a statewide opportunity for students to explore history, civic identity, and sense of place through public art. The conversation highlights how educators—across grade levels, content areas, and learning environments—can use a flexible, standards-aligned toolkit to help students design public art that reflects both local stories and national ideals. Listeners will also learn how student artwork can be submitted for a statewide exhibition, including a traveling display at the Nebraska State Capitol, the Museum of Nebraska Art, and the Nebraska Department of Education.

udstillinger, men dybt inde mærkede hun en snert af usikkerhed.En: Astrid cast delighted glances around the various exhibits, but deep inside she felt a tinge of uncertainty.Da: Forholdet med Soren var vigtigt for hende, men hun ønskede klarhed over deres fremtid.En: Her relationship with Soren was important to her, but she desired clarity about their future.Da: Hendes sind var fyldt med spørgsmål, som truede med at fjerne hendes tilstedeværelse fra øjeblikket.En: Her mind was filled with questions, threatening to remove her presence from the moment.Da: Soren bemærkede folks summen og den konstante strøm af besøgende.En: Soren noticed the hum of people and the constant stream of visitors.Da: Det udfordrede ham, for det var næsten umuligt at finde et privat øjeblik.En: It challenged him, as it was nearly impossible to find a private moment.Da: Men tanken om at deltage i dinosaurudstillingen gav ham en idé.En: But the thought of joining the dinosaur exhibit gave him an idea.Da: Han førte Astrid hen mod den lidt roligere del af museet, hvor en majestætisk dinosaur stod.En: He led Astrid towards a slightly quieter part of the museum, where a majestic dinosaur stood.Da: De

han, hans stemme lys i al tumulten, "jeg elsker dig.En: "Astrid," he began, his voice bright in all the tumult, "I love you.Da: Mere end alt."En: More than anything."Da: Folk omkring dem standsede op et kort øjeblik, nogle smilende, nogle optagede af begivenheden.En: People around them paused for a brief moment, some smiling, some focused on the event.Da: "Vil du gifte dig med mig?"En: "Will you

Story Transcript:Ca: Les ombres dansaven a les parets de la botiga del museu mentre l'Oriol, amb els ulls brillants de curiositat, explorava el lloc.En: The shadows danced on the walls of the museum shop while l'Oriol, with eyes bright with curiosity, explored the place.Ca: Era un dia d'hivern, amb l'escalfor del museu contrastant amb el fred de l'exterior.En: It was a winter day, with the warmth of the museum contrasting with the cold outside.Ca: L'Oriol anava acompanyat dels seus amics, en Jon i la Marta, que semblaven menys interessats en les curiositats tecnològiques.En: L'Oriol was accompanied by his friends, Jon and Marta, who seemed less interested in technological curiosities.Ca: "L'Oriol sempre té el cap als núvols amb aquestes coses", va comentar en Jon mentre passejaven pel passadís ple de turistes curiosos.En: "L'Oriol always has his head in the clouds with these things," commented Jon while they walked through the hallway full of curious tourists.Ca: "Sí, però mira com gaudeix!", va replicar la Marta amb un somriure.En: "Yes, but look how much he's enjoying it!" replied Marta with a smile.Ca: L'Oriol es sentia emocionat davant tants tresors científics.En: L'Oriol felt excited before so many scientific treasures.Ca: Però tenia un objectiu clar a la ment: volia trobar un gadget únic, alguna cosa que pogués mostrar als seus amics i fer que el miressin d'una manera diferent.En: But he had a clear goal in mind: he wanted to find a unique gadget, something he could show his friends to make them look at him differently.Ca: Volia ser interessant.En: He wanted to be interesting.Ca: El museu estava a vessar, i la botiga era un caos de veus i rialles.En: The museum was crowded, and the shop was a chaos of voices and laughter.Ca: Els prestatges eren plens de joguines científiques, llibres, microscopis, i robots de joguina.En: The shelves were full of scientific toys, books, microscopes, and toy robots.Ca: Però quan va veure el preu dels articles que li cridaven l'atenció, l'alegria de l'Oriol va començar a desaparèixer.En: But when he saw the price of the items that caught his attention, l'Oriol's joy began to fade.Ca: "Tot és massa car o poc impressionant", es va lamentar en veu baixa.En: "Everything is too expensive or not impressive enough," he muttered quietly.Ca: Malgrat la frustració, l'Oriol es va prendre el temps d'explorar cada racó.En: Despite the frustration, L'Oriol took the time to explore every corner.Ca: Tot i el risc de perdre el bus, va decidir que valia la pena buscar una mica més.En: Despite the risk of missing the bus, he decided it was worth searching a bit more.Ca: La determinació el va portar cap a un racó menys concorregut de la botiga.En: Determination led him to a less crowded corner of the shop.Ca: Allà, en veure una petita capsa amb un kit de robot solar, els ulls de l'Oriol es van il·luminar.En: There, when he saw a small box with a solar robot kit, l'Oriol's eyes lit up.Ca: No era car, i el més important, era un repte per construir.En: It wasn't expensive, and most importantly, it was a challenge to build.Ca: Però un dubte va aparèixer: "Serà prou interessant per als altres?"En: But a doubt appeared: "Will it be interesting enough for others?"Ca: Els pensaments van començar a formar espirals dins el seu cap.En: Thoughts began to spiral in his head.Ca: Volia impressionar els seus amics, però... també volia divertir-se i aprendre.En: He wanted to impress his friends, but... he also wanted to have fun and learn.Ca: Va imaginar com seria muntar el robot, les peces encaixant com un puzle.En: He imagined what it would be like to assemble the robot, the pieces fitting together like a puzzle.Ca: Finalment, va tancar els ulls i va somriure.En: Finally, he closed his eyes and smiled.Ca: El goig d'aprendre i el repte d'aquell petit kit solar eren el que veritablement el feien feliç.En: The joy of learning and the challenge of that small solar kit were what truly made him happy.Ca: Amb les paraules de la Marta ressonant a la seva ment, "Mira com gaudeix!", va saber que la seva decisió estava presa.En: With Marta's words echoing in his mind, "Look how much he's enjoying it!", he knew his decision was made.Ca: L'Oriol va comprar el kit, agafant-lo amb orgull.En: L'Oriol bought the kit, holding it with pride.Ca: Va sortir de la botiga amb un nou sentiment de confiança.En: He left the shop with a new sense of confidence.Ca: A fora, les llums de l'hivern il·luminaven els ulls del seu nou amic solar, petit però ple de possibilitats.En: Outside, the winter lights illuminated his new solar friend, small but full of possibilities.Ca: L'Oriol, ara amb un somriure clar i segura, esperava compartir aquella aventura amb els seus amics, no per impressionar-los, sinó per il·luminar la seva pròpia passió i compartir moments de felicitat genuïna.En: L'Oriol, now with a clear and certain smile, looked forward to sharing this adventure with his friends, not to impress them, but to illuminate his own passion and share moments of genuine happiness.Ca: Amb cada pas, mentre el museu tancava les seves portes darrere d'ells, l'Oriol sentia que era la seva curiositat, i no la impressió que causava, el que tenia el veritable valor.En: With every step, as the museum closed its doors behind them, L'Oriol felt that it was his curiosity, and not the impression he made, that had true value.

Egyedül jöttél? - kérdezte Bence kicsit bizonytalanul.En: "Excuse me, what you said about the solar system sounds really exciting. Did you come alone?"

In this special episode of CounterPunch Radio, Bill Ayers, friend of Pilsen Community Books and fellow podcaster at Under the Tree, introduces Amos Kennedy and fellow artists and activists Monica Trinidad and Chi Nwosu. This evening at Pilsen Community Books in Chicago included a packed-house crowd for a celebration for the release of Citizen Printer by renowned letterpress printer Amos P. Kennedy, Jr. A self-described “humble negro printer,” Amos Paul Kennedy, Jr., is internationally recognized for his type-driven messages of social justice and Black power, emblazoned in rhythmically layered and boldly inked prints made for the masses. Borrowing words from civil rights heroes such as Rosa Parks, Fannie Lou Hamer, Frederick Douglass, and Sojourner Truth, Kennedy issues fearless statements on race, capitalism, history, and politics—along with plenty of witty truisms—in his exuberant, colorful, and one-of-a-kind posters and handbills. Amos P. Kennedy, Jr. was working a corporate job when, at nearly forty, he discovered the art of letterpress printing on a tour of Colonial Williamsburg. Kennedy then devoted himself to the craft, earning an MFA in graphic design at the University of Wisconsin–Madison. He now operates Kennedy Prints!, a letterpress printshop in Detroit. He has exhibited in dozens of museums and galleries across the United States, including the Library of Congress, and the libraries of the Museum of Modern Art and the Metropolitan Museum of Art. Monica Trinidad (she/they) is a queer Latine visual artist, communicator, and cultural strategist. A lifelong Chicagoan, Monica has created zines, graphics, mixed media posters, communication strategies, and plans highlighting youth-led, intergenerational, and intersectional grassroots organizing work in Chicago and nationally. Chi Nwosu is a Black, non-binary, queer, Nigerian artist based in Chicago. Their work is an alchemy of cultural narratives that centres marginalised experiences and utilises potent cultural, political, and spiritual symbols. Chi's art invites viewers to imagine collective liberation, envisioning communities rooted in kindness, compassion, and care. Please, head over to Pilsen Community Books and pick up some books!

Patriotic artist Scott LoBaido joins Sid for his weekly hump day appearance to rant about his efforts to erect a 150-foot American flagpole at Ground Zero, which has garnered significant support and a commitment for funding. He addresses challenges faced from the 9/11 Museum administration and past objections due to potential offensiveness to non-American victims. LoBaido emphasizes the flag's symbolic significance, especially for upcoming anniversaries. Additionally, he critiques current anti-authority sentiments and calls for lawful protests, attributing the current chaos and deportations to liberal immigration policies.

The MIB. They appear without warning, dressed in black, knowing things about you they shouldn't possibly know — and they always deliver the same chilling message: stop asking questions, forget what you saw, or else.IN THIS EPISODE: The mysterious Men in Black… are they government agents? Time travelers? One man who experienced them first-hand has a different theory. And we'll look over a few separate incidents of people experiencing the Men in Black. (The MIB: I Knew They Were Evil) *** In spring of 2015, the Great Barrington Historical Society & Museum formally inducted the infamous Reed case of alien encounters. But is the Reed family alien abduction a valid historical fact - or UFO fan fiction? (Reed Family Alien Abduction) *** Weeping statues are nothing new, and believers claim they are miracles without much investigation. However, the Vatican proves them to be hoaxes almost 100% of the time. The latest is the statue of Our Lady of Guadalupe in New Mexico. Will this be the one that finally convinces the Vatican of a true miracle? (Weeping Statue) *** Had Leonarda Cianciulli's life not been so muddled by superstition, curses, and Romani fortune tellers, she may never have murdered at all. (She Turned Her Victims Into Soap and Teacakes) *** A family keep seeing black creatures in their home with no explanation of where they came from – or where they go. (Black Creatures on the Isle of White) *** On May 30, 1883, a stampede took place on New York's Brooklyn Bridge, killing 12 people -- all because of a bizarre rumor! But the bridge has always had a strange history. (Death On The Brooklyn Bridge) *** If humanity were to receive a message from an extraterrestrial civilization right now, it would be the single greatest event in the history of civilization. But according to a new study, such a message could also pose a serious risk to humanity. (If We Receive A Message From Aliens Should We Delete It Without Reading?) *** With as many people that pass on while being treated by EMTs, it should probably be no surprise that phantoms might be encountered in an ambulance. (Haunted Ambulance) *** There was no doubt that Thomas Joy was murdered by gunshot – but the witnesses all had different stories, as did the police. What really happened? (Who Shot “Tonce” Joy?) *** If you believe your house is haunted, it's best not to try and confirm it by using a Ouija board. Nothing good can come from that. (Ouija Halloween) *** In 1928, a young boy mysteriously disappears after his mother gives him a dime to spend on admission to the local theater. But that is just the beginning of this very twisted true story.
