The War on Illahee: Genocide, Complicity, and Cover-Ups in the Pioneer Northwest (Yale UP, 2025) by Marc James Carpenter is a history book about history. More specifically, it's a book about how history gets subsumed in myth, and why the truth often matters less than the story that ends up being told. In the 1850s across the Pacific Northwest, settlers engaged in bloody wars with several Indgienous tribes to seize their homelands - Illahee - for incorporation into the United States. Yet, when those same settlers sat down to write about their experiences, the bloodshed, danger, and trauma was transmuted via memory and a multi-generational game of telephone into a triumphant story of peaceful pioneers fairly trading Native people for their land. The War on Illahee is thus not just a history of Native and settler warfare in what is today Oregon and Washingotn, but also an argument for the power of history, and the insidiousness of choosing to forget the past.

Much of our understanding about the earthquakes, volcanic eruptions and floods that shaped the geology of the Pacific Northwest comes from Western scientists. But those records almost always overlook the oral traditions of Native American tribes who witnessed those events.   An exhibit at the Oregon Museum of Science and Industry in Portland looks at the eruption of Mount Mazama, the Ice Age floods and other geological events through the perspective of the Nez Perce and other Columbia Basin tribes. “Heads & Hearts: Seeing the Landscape through Nez Perce Eyes” is on display through Feb. 16.   Geologists Roger Amerman and Ellen Bishop created the exhibit, which originally appeared at the Josephy Center for Arts & Culture in Joseph. They join us to talk about how Native oral traditions can — and should — inform modern science.

FHIR-Native Architecture: Building Healthcare IT for True Interoperability As healthcare systems race to meet 21st Century Cures Act mandates, a critical question emerges: retrofit or rebuild? Mike O'Neill, CEO of MedicaSoft, explains why FHIR-native architecture delivers fundamentally different interoperability outcomes than legacy systems with API layers bolted on. This conversation cuts through vendor marketing to examine the structural, semantic, and operational advantages of building healthcare IT from the ground up on HL7 FHIR standards. O'Neill draws on extensive experience leading P&L, engineering, and operations across healthcare IT startups and public companies to explain what "FHIR-native" actually means in practice—and why it matters for CIOs evaluating vendor claims. Learn how purpose-built FHIR architecture eliminates middleware complexity, reduces integration costs, and enables real-time clinical data exchange that retrofitted systems struggle to deliver.

Moses Wiseman (Yup’ik) always knew he wanted to be a leader. Specifically, one with qualities that Wiseman learned from elders and other community members in the Village of Chefornak. At 24 years old, he is pursuing an MBA in strategic leadership at Alaska Pacific University, while also helping to create a Yup’ik glossary for health care providers. He and five other young, emerging Native leaders from all parts of the country have been selected for this year’s Center for Native American Youth’s Champions for Change. The program recognizes young people who exemplify leadership, taking steps to build positive outcomes in their communities. We’ll hear about these young people's passions and what drives them to serve others.

It has been a month since hundreds of members of a northern Ontario First Nation were put in hotels across the province after a water crisis. Many, however, have chosen to stay at the reserve. As Dan Karpenchuk reports, a state of emergency was declared in early January after a parasite was found in water samples and led to dozens of cases of gastrointestinal illnesses. Medical staff left Kashechewan a week ago after consultation with community leaders, but they say residents who remain will still be able to access healthcare services. Lisa Westaway is the regional executive for Indigenous Services Canada. “We've worked with Weeneebayko area health authority, Orange, which is emergency response and the ministry of health to ensure that services are in place for community members who choose to remain in Kashechewan.” Band leaders in Kaschewan declared a state of emergency on January fourth after damage to the water system. That led to sewage seeping into people's homes creating public health and safety issue. More than 1500 people were sent to communities across Ontario including Niagara Falls, Timmins, and Kingston. Less than 400 decided to stay. Tyson Wesley is the executive director of the Kashechewan First Nation. “A lot of people that are currently in the community are deciding to stay. However we're trying to develop some plans to allow them to be there such as our community across the river Fort Albany. So we're trying to see how they can access health care.” More than 60 band members at the fly-in community on the western shore of James Bay have been diagnosed with the parasite cryptosporidium, which causes gastrointestinal symptoms such as cramps, diarrhea, nausea, fever, and vomiting. Most cases are resolved without medication over a couple of weeks. It is still unclear when people will be able to return home. Tribal leaders from across the country spoke out this week at a U.S. Senate hearing against possible changes within the Small Business Administration (SBA) program that supports Native entities. The Alaska Desk's Alena Naiden from our flagship station KNBA reports. The 8(a) Business Development Program provides federal contracting opportunities to socially disadvantaged individuals or tribes. U.S. Sen. Lisa Murkowski (R-AK) co-led the oversight hearing focused on the program. “It delivers mission-critical work for civilian and defense agencies, and it promotes economic development in Native communities while helping to fulfill the federal trust responsibility.” But over the past year, the federal SBA and other agencies have launched audits into the program, and announced a sweeping suspension of companies participating in it. U.S. Defense Secretary aka U.S. War Secretary Pete Hegseth also announced on social media last month that his department would be “taking a sledgehammer to the oldest [Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion] DEI program in the federal government.” Murkowski says that Native-owned businesses participate in the program because Congress recognized the government's trust and treaty obligations to Native communities. “That was not based on race, it was not based on DEI.” Katherine Carlton (Iñupiat) is the president of Chugach Alaska Corporation. Her organization has participated in the program for decades and has benefitted from its economic opportunities. “For us, it provided the pathway to recover from the devastating Exxon Valdez oil spill in our region.” Polly Watson is vice president of operations at Bristol Bay Native Corporation and says her organization has several businesses participating in the 8(a) program. Watson says the corporation reinvests the revenue it receives through government contracts back into the community. One example is a partnership with the state Division of Motor Vehicles to deliver mobile services. “To bring real ID and driver's license services to seven villages in the Bristol Bay region serving rural residents.” Tribal leaders and senators from Nevada, Oklahoma, Montana, and Hawaii all spoke in support of the Native participation in the 8(a) program.

This episode, we're talking about the Peabody Award-nominated animated children's series Spirit Rangers, a superhero show about Native siblings who use their powers to protect the national park they call home. Showrunner and creator Karissa Valencia joins us to discuss how the show's team came together and became the first U.S. preschool show that features an all-Native writers' room. Through this process, they created an authentically Native series that helps kids of all backgrounds connect to nature. Host Gabe Gonzalez then speaks with comedian and Spirit Rangers writer Joey Clift about the way their writers' room and crew allowed them to tackle complex subjects that had never before been told in children's animation.

In this episode - John talks about the Stonewall Monument pride flag in New York being taken down by the Trump Administration and Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick appearing before Congress offering a chance to revise his past statements on Jeffrey Epstein following newly revealed personal and business connections. Then, John interviews author and Professor of History at George Washington University - David J. Silverman. He is the author of the award-winning This Land is Their Land: The Wampanoag Indians, Plymouth Colony, and Troubled History of Thanksgiving. They talk about his new book "The Chosen and the Damned". The epochal story of race in America is typically understood as a Black and White issue. The Chosen and the Damned restores the defining role Native people have played, and continue Americans United. He's an author and an attorney who's defended the First Amendment for more than a decade. He has two books: The Founding Myth: Why Christian Nationalism Is Un-American (2019) and American Crusade: How the Supreme Court is Weaponizing Religious Freedom (2022). John also talks with Brian Silva who is Vice President of Outreach at Americans United for Separation of Church and State. Brian brings to AU almost three decades of organizing experience rooted in creating change through education and advocacy that is intersectional, collaborative and grassroots. After working as a high school history teacher and mentor, Brian became a leader in the LGBTQ+ movement as the Executive Director of Marriage Equality USA where he helped pave the way to legalize marriage for same-sex couples. Most recently, he worked to advance equality, equity, and justice as the Executive Director of the National Equality Action Team (NEAT), which he also founded.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Long before it was fully paved, the road that became Route 66 from Chicago to Santa Monica, Calif., was designated as one of the nation's original numbered highways 100 years ago. Crossing vast stretches of Native American land in places like Oklahoma, New Mexico, and Arizona, it eventually delivered a steady stream of mobile customers to enterprising Native merchants selling everything from trinkets to fine jewelry and textiles to frybread. The signature eye-popping billboards and kitschy neon signs that defined the route are mostly gone, but a few hold-out examples of 50s road-trip culture remain. And a number of new businesses are expecting to cash in with renewed interest in an old highway.

Protecting tribal sovereignty is a top discussion at the National Congress of American Indians (NCAI) 2026 Executive Council Winter Session, which is taking place this week in Washington, DC. NCAI President Mark Macarro (Pechanga Band of Luiseño Indians) highlighted the importance of tribal sovereignty in his State of Indian Nations address. Macarro says before there was a U.S., there were sovereign tribal nations. “Our sovereignty was not created by treaties, nor granted by Congress. It is inherent and existed before colonization. Treaties did not give us sovereignty. They recognized it. The Constitution did not define us it acknowledged us. Federal laws did not create our rights, it memorialized them. And yet for centuries, our sovereignty has been attacked and attempts continue to constrain and diminish it. Yet our nations continue to govern, continue to lead, to teach, to resist, and to rise.” Macarro says recent attacks include calls by Gov. Kevin Stitt (Cherokee/R-OK) to limit tribal sovereignty, which Macarro says is appalling. Tribal leaders in Oklahoma agree with Macarro’s sentiment. Reggie Wassana is governor of the Cheyenne and Arapaho Tribes of Oklahoma. “This day and age, we shouldn’t have to ask why tribes have a sovereignty. We shouldn’t have to ask what the tribe’s capabilities are, how they can function, how they can prosper, and who are tribes.” Wassana and Macarro say tribal leaders are often educating elected officials about American Indian history, tribal sovereignty and the U.S. government's trust and treaty responsibilities. Before every census, the federal government picks several test sites, focusing on hard-to-reach areas, but the bureau has cancelled that testing at four of the six regions, including two that cover Arizona tribal lands. As KJZZ's Gabriel Pietrorazio reports, this is not the first time the Census has changed course with Indian Country. In fact, this also happened in 2016 when two reservations in Washington and South Dakota were nixed, citing budget uncertainty and funding shortages. Census consultant Saundra Mitrovich (Berry Creek Rancheria of Maidu Indians of California), co-leads the Natives Count Coalition. “In the last two decennials, not only have we had the undercount, but we've had this cancellation of test sites for tribal areas twice.” Mitrovich says one concern is that the Trump administration is considering to use postal service staff to replace temporary census workers to conduct the count and cut down on costs. “A lot of the households are left invisible to the census, and they also have non-traditional addresses.” In 2020, the nonprofit Native American Rights Fund reported that more than 80% of all registered Indigenous voters in Arizona – outside of metro Phoenix and Tucson – rely solely on P.O. boxes. This time around, San Carlos and White Mountain Apache homes in Arizona as well as Cherokee households in North Carolina are being left out. The Census Bureau would not say why. “How are we gonna say that we're going to carry out this fair and full representation that the survey is supposed to provide of the country?” And on this day in 1978, the “Longest Walk” by Native activists began. A start-up ceremony took place on Alcatraz Island, where the group then proceeded to travel by foot from Sacramento to Washington D.C. to build awareness of treaty rights and injustice.

MARC, a Dublin-based AI company, is changing how large real estate portfolios manage contract and expense data. Backed by investors including Jack Pierse (Wayflyer), Susan Spence (SoftCo), Tom Kennedy (Hostelworld), and more, founder Aaron Devitt built MARC to reinvent how critical asset management data is managed at scale. Since launching in 2024, MARC has scaled from 40-unit Irish property managers to 25,000-unit US-based owners. After seeing firsthand how poor property management practices affected renters and asset managers, then 22-year-old Devitt deferred from college to build proptech startup, Marc to serve as the contract-to-invoice truth layer for the property industry. MARC's AI agents turn buried vendor contracts into structured, live operational data, cutting work that typically takes 2-3 months down to a matter of seconds. Large property portfolios can involve thousands of vendor contracts covering services, licenses, and certifications. Critical details such as renewal dates, termination rights, escalation clauses, and fee structures are often scattered across inboxes, shared drives, and legacy systems, making budgeting, routine audits, asset sales and invoice comparison reviews slow and error-prone. MARC builds AI Contract Agents that locate, uncover, read, and structure every contract across fragmented organisations. MARC addresses this by deploying AI agents that plug directly into existing document stores, including email inboxes and SharePoint. The system automatically locates contracts, extracts key terms, and organises them into a live source of truth that teams can query instantly, enabling asset management teams to operate 200 times faster than humans. MARC also compares historically buried contract terms against monthly invoices, helping institutional operators identify discrepancies and over billings before they impact net operating income (NOI). Since launching in 2024, MARC has grown from serving local Irish property managers to working with institutional owners managing 5,000–35,000 units across the U.S. and Canada. Its customers now represent more than $80 billion in assets under management. After securing some of Ireland's largest property managers as customers, including Sherry Fitzgerald Lettings and DNG Lettings, in 2025, the MARC team began to serve institutional real estate owners across North America. The company now works with multiple operators managing between 5,000 and 30,000 residential units across more than 20 U.S. states. Today, MARC's customers represent a combined assets-under-management (AUM) figure of over $75 billion. "When you manage thousands of units, contract data directly affects asset values, but most teams can't access that data quickly or reliably," said Aaron Devitt, Founder and CEO of MARC. "On top of this, the relationship between the Accounts Payable (AP) systems and Contract Management Systems (CMS) have been historically disconnected, causing marginal and continuous over billing at scale. To the tune of many millions of dollars for larger residential portfolios." "This is why we built MARC, the connective layer between the CMS and the AP systems, ensuring every portfolio contract is accurate, up-to-date and being billed for accordingly, without thousands of human hours required to find, vet, and verify thousands of contracts." MARC has raised a $1 million pre-seed round from 23 angel investors, with no venture capital participation. Backers include Jack Pierse (Wayflyer), Tom Kennedy (Hostelworld), Susan Spence (SoftCo), Eoghan Quigley (Dublin Chamber of Commerce), and James McGann (Unmind), alongside multiple institutional real estate investors and U.S.-based multifamily executives. The funding is being deployed to advance the product and drive expansion into the North American market. "Backing founders like Aaron is how we continue to build Ireland's next generation of global technology companies," said Jack Pierse, co-founder of Wayflyer. "MARC is tackling a ...

Tribal leaders from across the country are gathered in Washington D.C. this week for the National Congress of American Indians (NCAI) 2026 Executive Council Winter Session and State of Indian Nations Address. NCAI Youth Commission Co-Presidents Jonas Kanuhsa (Gila River Indian Community) and Angelina Serna (Oneida Nation and Turtle Mountain Band of Chippewa Indians) kicked off Monday morning's assembly by delivering the youth commission speech. Serna says her message to tribal leaders is to recognize the contributions being made by Native youth. “I really talk about tokenism when it comes to Native and really putting youth at the forefront and having youth at these tables, at these conversations, giving youth that opportunity to really learn, and for the adults to be learners and teachers as well, and incorporating language and culture in everything that we do because what we do has spirit, has purpose.” Kanuhsa says his message to attendees is to help find ways for Native youth to get more opportunities, especially for those who live in remote areas. “Opening roles for more Native youth. I think Native youth on rural reservations have a hard time maybe connecting to maybe internships, fellowships, maybe just early on new jobs, entry jobs, because of those location barriers.” The Youth Commission co-presidents also touched on safety concerns when it comes to Native people and recent federal immigration actions across the U.S. They also talked about the commission's work this week on Capitol Hill to advocate for funding, harm reduction, treatment, and recovery models for substance abuse. NCAI President Mark Macarro (Pechanga Band of Luiseno Indians), who delivered the State of Indian Nations address, followed the youth commission’s remarks by saying young Native people are an important part of NCAI. “In my time here at NCAI, the youth started to say we have a voice, you know, what we have to say matters, and it matters in this moment. And, you know, we took stock of that and been making strides to have them be more inclusive. They’re right and their take on the world or take on issues in Indian Country is different than ours, and so we need to allow ourselves to hear that. but we also need to create those opportunities for us to mentor them.” NCAI’s winter session continues Tuesday with updates from federal agencies including the departments of justice, transportation, and housing. Leaders will also hear from some members of Congress from New Mexico and Washington state. U.S. Rep. Sharice Davids during a 2022 hearing. (Courtesy C-SPAN) The history and effects of Indian boarding schools would be investigated and documented under legislation re-introduced by U.S. Reps. Tom Cole (Chickasaw/R-OK) and Sharice Davids (Ho-Chunk/D-KS). Rep. Davids is one of the first two Native women elected to Congress, and has long spoken of the boarding school era, including on C-SPAN in 2022. “The policies and assimilation practices of the United States had the sole purpose of culturally assimilating American Indian, Alaska Native, and Native Hawaiian children in residential boarding schools across the country. Children were coerced and compelled to attend boarding schools away from their home. Many children did not return to their families or their communities. Those that did return lost generations' worth of cultural knowledge, stories and traditions, and communities lost their language keepers, cultural practitioners and future leaders.” H.R. 7325 would establish a commission to investigate and report on the histories of more than 500 federally run boarding schools, which operated between 1819 through the 1970s. President Joe Biden formally apologized for the schools in 2024. British forces under fire from the French and Indian forces at Monongahela, when the Braddock expedition failed to take Fort Duquesne. And on this day in 1763, the French-Indian War officially ended. The armies of France and England wrestled for territory in the Americas, with both sides swaying Native tribes to help their efforts. Some, including the Ojibwe and Winnebago, helped the French, while the Iroquois helped England. While the outcome was favorable for the British, the cost of the war compelled England to raise taxes on the 13 colonies, eventually spurring the American Revolution.

Historical accounts tend to neglect mixed-ancestry Native Americans: racially and legally differentiated from nonmixed Indigenous people by U.S. government policy, their lives have continually been treated as peripheral to Indigenous societies. Mixed-Blood Histories: Race, Law, and Dakota Indians in the Nineteenth-Century Midwest (U Minnesota Press, 2025) intervenes in this erasure. Using legal, linguistic, and family-historical methods, Dr. Jameson R. Sweet writes mixed-ancestry Dakota individuals back into tribal histories, illuminating the importance of mixed ancestry in shaping and understanding Native and non-Native America from the nineteenth century through today. When the U.S. government designated mixed-ancestry Indians as a group separate from both Indians and white Americans—a distinction born out of the perception that they were uniquely assimilable as well as manipulable intermediate figures—they were afforded rights under U.S. law unavailable to other Indigenous people, albeit inconsistently, which included citizenship and the rights to vote, serve in public office, testify in court, and buy and sell land. Focusing on key figures and pivotal “mixed-blood histories” for the Dakota nation, Dr. Sweet argues that in most cases, they importantly remained Indians and full participants in Indigenous culture and society. In some cases, they were influential actors in establishing reservations and negotiating sovereign treaties with the U.S. government. Culminating in a pivotal reexamination of the U.S.-Dakota War of 1862, Mixed-Blood Histories brings greater diversity and complexity to existing understandings of Dakota kinship, culture, and language while offering insights into the solidification of racial categories and hierarchies in the United States. This interview was conducted by Dr. Miranda Melcher whose book focuses on post-conflict military integration, understanding treaty negotiation and implementation in civil war contexts, with qualitative analysis of the Angolan and Mozambican civil wars.

Episode Highlights With KatieGrounding basics: the Earth is an electron reservoir; skin contact equalizes your body's electrical potential and lowers body voltage.Native vs non-native EMFs: native = Schumann/geomagnetic background; non-native = wiring and wireless sources. Aim to increase exposure to native signals (nature time) and reduce unnecessary non-native exposure, especially during sleep.Physiological effects discussed in studies: improved blood rheology (less RBC clumping), shifts in cortisol rhythm and HRV, reductions in pain and sleep disturbances.Why modern life disrupts it: rubber soles, synthetic floors, and high-rise livingBest outdoor practices: go barefoot on grass/soil/sand (great at sunrise!), beach walks, gardening, sitting on stone/earth, post-flight grounding, leather-soled shoes as a compromise.Moist natural surfaces conduct best.Indoor options and cautions when it comes to grounding mats and sheets.Dirty electricity concern: high-frequency transients on wiring or in soil can ride the ground; test and remediate electrical issues before relying on indoor grounding.Safety notes with thunderstorms or near energized equipment, with implanted electronics or complex medical devices.Start with 20–30 minutes daily outdoors; stack with circadian light (morning sun), movement on natural surfaces, and evening wind-down outsideUse an outlet tester and a body-voltage meter if experimenting indoors.Treat grounding as a low-risk, nature-based habit that pairs well with light, movement, hydration, and mineral balance; consider indoor gadgets optional and proceed only after due diligence.Resources Mentioned EMF canopyGroundies earthing shoesJustine Stenger's Mitochondrial Restoration ProgramDr. Courtney Hunt on Instagram

Audio available by 12 p.m. EST For decades, Native women and other women of color were subjected to forced sterilization by the federal Bureau of Indian Affairs and the Indian Health Service. New Mexico lawmakers introduced a memorial last week to create a truth and reconciliation commission that would conduct a study into the history, and continuing impacts of this abuse. KUNM's Jeanette DeDios (Jicarilla Apache and Diné) has this report. Senate memorial 14 includes research dating to the 1970s which shows between 25%-50% of Indigenous women ere sterilized, with some of the highest incidents occurring in New Mexico. The memorial would develop a plan to create a state truth and reconciliation commission to research and find all cases of sterilization in the state, gather survivor testimony, and review and recommend educational policy. Keely Badger is a human rights advocate who wrote her dissertation on the forced sterilization of Native women. Lawmakers asked her about challenges finding and accessing records. “I do think that the requests have to come from an official state body, official agencies, to get to the heart of this information. It is going to be more than one person’s ability to accumulate this information.” She says this may have been intentional by the states. “At a national level, they have sealed some of these records for a reason, in the same way that a lot of the information about the boarding school system was very challenging; took decades and decades of research to accumulate to get to a point where we could have a national apology. “I believe that this is one of those situations where it is going to require real political will and advocacy from civil society groups to get to the real heart of this from a national perspective.” If the memorial goes into law, New Mexico would be the first state in the nation to formally investigate and acknowledge these violations. The memorial will head to the senate floor for a vote and if passed, will go to the House of Representatives. White Mountain Apache Chairman Kasey Velasquez speaks about the significance of the Apache trout in Mesa, Ariz. on September 4, 2024. (Photo: Gabriel Pietrorazio / KJZZ Thousands of members from the White Mountain Apache Tribe went to the polls last week to vote in a primary election that resulted in the sitting chairman losing his chance at another term. KJZZ's Gabriel Pietrorazio reports. In a three-way race, Chairman Kasey Velasquez earned a little over 400 votes, while his challengers both received nearly four times as much, according to the tribe's election commission. In the end though, longtime Whiteriver school board member Orlando Carroll got the most votes by a margin of more than 50 ballots. He will face off against Councilman Gary Alchesay in the April general election. Also on Wednesday, the tribe announced that a special prosecutor declined to criminally charge Velasquez under tribal law for allegations of sexual harassment against the HR director. A civil investigation by the tribe is still ongoing. And you will be seeing lots of commemorative Seahawks swag now that Seattle's NFL team has won Super Bowl 60. The ‘hawks beat the New England Patriots 29-13. The BBC reports that many Native American and First Nations people appreciate the team's logo. Turns out, it is based on a carved transformation mask from the Kwakwaka’wakw Nation from the late 1800s. The logo was chosen by the Seahawk's manager in the 1970s. Seattle's Burke Museum traced the origins of it to a photo of a ceremonial mask in an old art book. This led them to the Hudson Museum in Maine. The mask was loaned to Seattle for a ceremony with tribal members and team representatives. The BBC reports that, unlike other major league sports teams, the Seahawks logo has not sparked backlash because it respectfully borrows from Indigenous culture and does not resort to racist stereotypes. Some Indigenous people from Canada and the U.S. say it has inspired them to learn more of their own culture. A ceremony and parade for the Seahawks will be held in Seattle Wednesday morning.

Jim and Scott tackle wildlife conservation issues and its challenges in the future.

A fresh Anthropic announcement set off a week of market jitters and existential questions: what happens when the big model shops ship “legal productivity” features and the public markets flinch. This week, we bring Otto von Zastrow back for a rapid-response conversation, with a front-row view from New York and a blunt take: software grows cheaper to reproduce, so value migrates. The discussion lands on a key distinction, interface versus data, and why the old guard still holds leverage even as new entrants sprint.From there, the conversation zooms in on “systems of record” and the uneasy truth that the safest vault often loses mindshare when a new interface sits on top. Otto points to email, calendar, SharePoint, DMS platforms, and the growing power of a single chat workspace to become the place where work happens. The hosts press on a critical nuance for lawyers: legal research data is not flat, and “good law” demands hierarchy, treatment, and reliable citation context, not a pile of cases plus vibes.Otto frames Midpage.ai as a data company first, built on continuous court ingestion plus normalization that used to demand armies of editors. He argues AI turns messy inputs into structured repositories at a scale that favors speed and breadth, yet accuracy still requires process design and verification loops. Greg sharpens the point for litigators: the bar is not clever answers, the bar is defensible citations, negative treatment, and confidence that the record matches reality. Otto agrees on the need for trust, then flips the lens: many annotation tasks look like grind work where modern models, paired with strong QA, start to outperform large manual pipelines.The headline feature is integration via Model Context Protocol, described as a USB-C style connector for tools and models. Midpage chose distribution inside Claude and ChatGPT rather than forcing lawyers into yet another standalone site. Otto explains the wager: lawyers want fewer surfaces, and general chat platforms ship features at a pace no niche vendor matches alone, so the smart move is to meet users where daily work already lives. The demo story centers on research inside chat, with Midpage returning real case links and citations, then letting the user push deeper with uploads and follow-on tasks, while keeping verification one click away.The back half turns to second-order effects: pricing, agent spend, and the rise of “vibe” work where professionals act more like managers of agent teams than sole authors of first drafts. Marlene raises governance and liability when internal DIY tools pop up outside formal review, and Otto predicts a pendulum toward professionalized deployment plus change management. The conversation closes on Midpage's “holy grail” topic, citators and the case relationship graph, plus a clear-eyed forecast: standalone research websites shrink as a primary workspace, while research becomes groundwork performed by agents, with lawyers spending more time interrogating results than running searches.Listen on mobile platforms:  ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Apple Podcasts⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ |  ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Spotify⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ | ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠YouTube⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ | Substack [Special Thanks to ⁠Legal Technology Hub⁠ for their sponsoring this episode.]⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Email: geekinreviewpodcast@gmail.comMusic: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Jerry David DeCicca⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠

Levelle Wells shares his journey from incarceration, addiction, and gang life to sobriety, healing, and a life of service, and what the “Red Road” has meant in rebuilding his own life and in helping others find their way forward.Wells is an Omaha-based Afro-Indigenous community leader (Elk Clan of the Omaha Tribe) whose life story spans incarceration, gang involvement, addiction, and a hard-won return to sobriety and service. Sent to prison at 17, Wells reached a turning point that led him onto what he describes as the “Red Road,” a spiritual path of recovery and accountability. Today, Wells supports others navigating reentry and sober life through Native-led community work. He also collaborates with the University of Nebraska Medical Center as a community scientist, helping build awareness and participation in cancer research, as well as advocating for healing, identity, and building pathways forward for Indigenous communities.*************************Today's show and others are supported by the generous membership of Amy and Tom Trenolone.*Bonus content* for Lives members only features exclusive content and more.
