We're starting today with Mandy's first-ever ODC complaint against a Horry County attorney named Bert von Herrmann who chose to post about her courtroom testimony with a misogynistic, body-shaming Facebook post — then shared a non-apology blaming bots, copying devices, and the "misuse of podcasts." Investigative journalists ⁠⁠Mandy Matney⁠⁠ and ⁠Liz Farrell⁠⁠ and attorney Eric Bland unpack why this isn't just one creep online, but part of a coordinated effort to threaten, litigate and berate women journalists into silence.  And we're back to the Murdaugh saga: a New Yorker piece peddling a far-fetched "troll theory" about whistleblower Christine Avery and booted juror Myra Crosby, plus Dick Harpootlian and Jim Griffin's new lawsuit against Becky Hill — which Eric argues is pure gamesmanship to soften Alex's image and weaponize discovery before the next trial.    ☕ Cups Up! ⚖️ Episode References Mandy's Facebook Post about Bert Von Hermann's Smear

Colson Whitehead is one the few novelists, and the only still alive, to win two Pulitzer Prizes for Fiction—for “The Underground Railroad” and “The Nickel Boys.” Whitehead's protagonist in the Harlem trilogy is Ray Carney, a small-time crook who fences stolen goods while working as a furniture salesman. Ray first appeared in “Harlem Shuffle,” and the final book of the trilogy, “Cool Machine,” will be published in July. David Remnick and Whitehead discuss the trilogy's second book, “Crook Manifesto,” and how David Bowie inspired Whitehead's genre-hopping approach to fiction. This segment originally aired on July 21, 2023.

June, AKA Pride Month, is here but the rainbow corporate profile pictures are gradually dwindling after years of endless veneration. What happened? Will and The Crew are joined by Author of ‘All-American Patriotism: Celebrating 250 Years Of America's Greatness' and FOX & Friends Co-Host Rachel Campos-Duffy to investigate the mystery of the missing Pride flags, before breaking down Spencer Pratt's final hours in the race for L.A. mayor and The New Yorker's insinuation that patriotism is “problematic.” Plus, Will and The Crew examine the disturbing societal double standard in the murder trial of Karmelo Anthony, and the slew of artists pulling out of the “Freedom 250” concert.

As control of the Senate hangs in the balance, many eyes are on Dan Osborn, of Nebraska. He's a dream candidate for the Democrats: a mechanic in the food-processing industry, a former president of his local union, and a veteran of the Navy and the Army National Guard. But Osborn isn't a Democrat; he's running as an independent. Polls show a close or tied race with the Republican incumbent, Pete Ricketts, an heir to a financial fortune. David Remnick talks with Osborn about leading a strike at a Kellogg's plant; how Donald Trump's tariffs are affecting voters in an agricultural state; and Osborn's decision to not caucus with either party if he wins the seat.Further reading: “Can the Democrats Take Back the Senate?,” by Amy Davidson SorkinThe Political Scene draws on the reporting and analysis found in The New Yorker for lively conversations about the big questions in American politics.

Is AI the biggest scam of our generation — or the most misunderstood technology in history? Cognitive scientist Gary Marcus has been studying artificial intelligence for over 30 years, and what he has to say will make you question everything you thought you knew about ChatGPT, AGI, and the trillion dollar AI gold rush.In this episode of SparX, we are talking with Gary Marcus – professor, author, and one of the most respected and fiercely independent voices in AI research – about why the promises being made by Sam Altman, Dario Amodei, and Elon Musk may be leading the global economy toward a catastrophic miscalculation.

[Part Two of Two] How does a pro–Alex Murdaugh troll theory end up in The New Yorker?  In Part Two of Episode #150, investigative journalists Mandy Matney and ⁠Liz Farrell⁠ trace exactly that.  James Lasdun's May 26 New Yorker story leaned into a years-old lie: that LUNASHARK®, Clerk Becky Hill, and attorney Mark Tinsley conspired to plant an "anonymous" email and get the “Egg Lady” booted from Murdaugh's jury. None of it is true — and this week, the receipts come out. For the first time, Mandy and Liz reveal the full story of whistleblower Christine Avery: the real timeline, what the team actually told her, demonstrating how the "Plan A / Plan B" framing falls apart. They expose the "narrative washing" that smuggled Christine's name onto a “Beach v. Greg Parker” witness list, the felon's Ai-generated "slop" and the lazy reporting that let a manufactured theory go national. As South Carolina barrels toward Murdaugh 2.0, this is how disinformation gets dressed up as journalism — and how we plan to punch back.  Let's dive in…

“Gold is having a moment,” writes New Yorker staff writer Jennifer Wilson. Earlier this year, it traded as high as $5,500 an ounce as an unstable economic outlook has central banks and investors buying gold to hedge their bets.

Wilson explores all these angles in her latest piece “How Americans Caught Gold Fever Again.” We talk to Wilson and experts – and a gold prospector –  about the legacy and future of this precious metal. Guests: Jennifer Wilson, staff writer, The New Yorker - her recent article is "How Americans Caught Gold Fever Again" Albert Fausel, owner, Placerville Hardware; part-time gold prospector Quinn Slobodian, professor of international history, Boston University Brian Wallace, executive officer, Indigenous Futures Society Learn more about your ad choices.

Today, we get back to the funny stuff with a guy who is ‘serious' about comedy.  Meet Eddie Brill, a native New Yorker who came to Boston to attend Emerson College, getting his start in comedy there and never looking back.  Eddie has toured all over the United States and throughout many parts of the world.  He was previously the warm-up comic and comedy talent coordinator of The Late Show with David Letterman.  He founded and was the creative director for the award-winning Great American Comedy Festival in Norfolk, Nebraska, honoring the late Johnny Carson who hailed from that town.  Eddie and I talk about  current trends in comedy, who his heroes in the business are and the comics who continue  to “bring it” on stage today!

[Part One of Two] In Part One of this two-part episode, investigative journalists Mandy Matney and ⁠Liz Farrell⁠ break down James Lasdun's Becky Hill piece and explain why it reads less like journalism and more like the latest brick in Team Murdaugh's three-year 'narrative-laundering' project.  From the recycled "pizza conspiracy" to the false claim that Mark Tinsley has known Christine Avery since 2020, this is what happens when a writer for the New Yorker wanders onto a Murdaugh chessboard perhaps without realizing he's a playing piece.  Mandy and Liz connect the dots between Dick Harpootlian's subpoena-power threats, Greg Parker's attorneys, the Egg Lady juror's book written with a convicted felon, and the recycled smears designed to discredit the credible voices standing between Alex Murdaugh and an acquittal at his retrial. Receipts are coming in Part Two — out Friday. Get your pins ready...  Let's Dive in…

You may use ChatGPT or Claude every day, but how much do you know about the guys running those companies? One of them, Sam Altman, has come under a ton of fire recently. He transformed OpenAI from a nonprofit lab into one of the most powerful and controversial companies in Silicon Valley, raising billions in funding and steering the development of ChatGPT into a product used by hundreds of millions of people worldwide. But Andrew Marantz, staff writer at The New Yorker, spent 18 months co-authoring an article with Ronan Farrow that asks if he can be trusted.

For many of us, daily life is defined by a near-constant stream of decisions, from what to buy on Amazon to what to watch on Netflix. On this episode of Critics at Large, Vinson Cunningham, Naomi Fry, and Alexandra Schwartz consider how we came to see endless selection as a fundamental right. The hosts discuss “The Age of Choice,” a book by the historian Sophia Rosenfeld, which traces how our fixation with the freedom to choose has evolved over the centuries. Today, an abundance of choice in one sphere often masks a lack of choice in others—and, with so much focus on individual rather than collective decision-making, the glut of options can contribute to a profound sense of alienation. “When all you do is choose, choose, choose, what you do is end up by yourself,” Cunningham says. “Putting yourself with people seems to be one of the salves.”This episode originally aired on March 13, 2025. Read, watch, and listen with the critics:“Could Anyone Keep Track of This Year's Microtrends?” by Danielle Cohen (The Cut)“The Age of Choice: A History of Freedom in Modern Life,” by Sophia Rosenfeld“The Federalist Papers,” by Alexander Hamilton, James Madison, and John Jay“What Does It Take to Quit Shopping?

In this episode of the Superpowers for Good show, HaChi Yu, Director of Jivamukti Yoga® New York, shared her passion for fostering deep connections—not just through yoga practice but through a broader vision of community and inclusivity.“Yoga actually means union or to yoke, which means to create a connection,” HaChi explained. She described Jivamukti as grounded in the Sanskrit concepts of “Jeeva,” meaning soul, and “Mukti,” meaning liberation. “We are all trying to reconnect to our true potential and our true nature, which we believe is goodness,” she said.HaChi's mission extends beyond the physical practice of yoga. The studio serves as a hub for building relationships, learning, and healing. Jivamukti Yoga®, founded in 1984 in New York City, emphasizes a philosophy of interconnection: to oneself, to others, and to the earth.After navigating the challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic, which led to the closure of her Los Angeles studio, HaChi returned to New York and opened a small studio in Chinatown. Now, she is expanding to a larger 5,000-square-foot flagship location in Brooklyn. HaChi described the new space as one that will “allow us to host multiple studios for meditation, yoga classes, readings, and events simultaneously.”To bring this vision to life, HaChi is raising funds via a regulated investment crowdfunding campaign on Honeycomb Credit. She views the campaign as an extension of her yoga philosophy. “The community is not separate from the business,” she noted, emphasizing the collective nature of sustaining inclusive wellness spaces.Supporters can join the campaign by visiting s4g.biz/jiva or scanning the QR code featured during the episode. Crowdfunding allows people to contribute to meaningful projects with even modest investments, aligning with HaChi's vision of accessible and inclusive participation.Jivamukti Yoga® is more than a physical practice. It's a reminder of shared responsibility and the power of community. Supporting this expansion is an investment not only in yoga but in a more connected and compassionate world.tl;dr:Jivamukti Yoga® emphasizes connection as the foundation for personal and community transformation.Founder Sharon Gannon and David Leif launched Jivamukti in NYC, fostering a yoga lifestyle since 1984.After COVID closed her LA studio, HaChi reopened in NYC and is now expanding to Brooklyn.HaChi is using Honeycomb Credit crowdfunding to raise capital, embracing her community-first philosophy.HaChi identifies connection as her superpower, teaching others to forge meaningful bonds across differences.How to Develop Connection As a SuperpowerHaChi believes her superpower is connection, a skill tied directly to her yoga practice. “Yoga means to link, it means to connect,” she explained, adding that her ability to connect with others transcends physical yoga. She focuses on fostering connections between people, cultures, nature, and shared human experiences. Her goal isn't to highlight individual differences but to celebrate similarities, saying, “What makes us the same? Not what makes us different.” This focus allows her community to thrive and underscores her belief that connection is the foundation of wellness.Years before transitioning into yoga, HaChi was a professional ballerina. During one of her retirement performances, she panicked moments before stepping on stage in stilts. Overwhelmed with fear, she voiced her hesitation to the stage manager. When her director noticed her struggle, he addressed the audience directly, bringing transparency to the challenge she faced. This act of connection—being seen and supported—helped her proceed with confidence. The incident reinforced HaChi's belief in the power of connection to overcome fear and foster growth.Tips for Developing the Superpower of Connection:Listen Deeply: Focus on what's behind a person's words with empathy and attention.Foster Inclusivity: Look for common ground to connect across differences.Be Vulnerable: Ask for help when needed—it builds mutual trust and understanding.Cultivate Awareness: Pause to reflect on shared humanity before responding.By following HaChi's example and advice, you can make connection a skill. With practice and effort, you could make it a superpower that enables you to do more good in the world.Remember, however, that research into success suggests that building on your own superpowers is more important than creating new ones or overcoming weaknesses.

THE KGB INVENTED ANTI-ZIONISM AND YOUR KID'S HISTORY TEACHER ASSIGNED THE TEXTBOOK. Thomas Massie lost the most expensive House primary in history and opened his concession speech with a Tel Aviv joke while Hasan Piker mourned.

The New Yorker contributing writer Robin Wright joins Tyler Foggatt to discuss the state of peace talks between the U.S. and Iran. They talk about the evolving terms—and major sticking points—of a potential agreement between the two countries, including the future of Iran's nuclear program and the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz. They also explore whether the war has ultimately weakened or emboldened Iran, and how Donald Trump's approach to the conflict and negotiations fits into his broader diplomatic legacy.This week's reading: “The Epic Disaster of Operation Epic Fury,” by Robin Wright “Why Any Plausible Iran Deal Is a Humiliation for Trump,” by Isaac Chotiner “How Trump Created a Slush Fund for His Allies,” by Ruth Marcus “Is the Working Class Finally Turning on Trump?,” by Eyal Press “How Problematic Is Patriotism?,” by Arthur Krystal See Tyler Foggatt in Conversation with Robby Hoffman at the Cascade Ideas Festival on June 6thThe Political Scene draws on the reporting and analysis found in The New Yorker for lively conversations about the big questions in American politics.

On this week's episode of Unclear and Present Danger, Jamelle and John are joined by Vinson Cunningham of the New Yorker to discuss Bulworth, the 1998 black comedy (no pun intended) written, directed by and starring Warren Beatty. After working through their initial shock at the sheer weirdness of the film, Jamelle, John and Vinson explore its politics, its vision of American society, its critique of American media and the fact that the character of Bulworth is, himself, highly prescient. They also explore the strange racial politics of the film, as well as the extent to which it stands as a kind of modern parable.This is a strange film folks! And we had a great time discussing it.On our next episode, we will discuss Roland Emmerich's 1998 disaster thriller Godzilla, something of a misbegotten attempt to Americanize the storied franchise. But there is a lot to talk about and we are looking forward to doing so.

As the United States approaches its 250th anniversary, the Constitution remains the most consequential document in American life — and more people are reading it than ever. But pick up almost any commercial edition and you'll find the same thing: small type, no imagery, nothing that invites you in. Jessie McGuire noticed this too. Find bonus content and more on our Substack: https://designbetterpodcast.com/p/jessie-mcguire Every copy her studio ordered looked identical — dense, utilitarian, forgettable. So they redesigned it. They printed thousands of copies, donated them to New York City schools, and invited designers like Milton Glaser and Seymour Chwast to create posters for each amendment in the Bill of Rights. That project became a turning point — not just for the studio, but for how they think about what design is actually for. Jessie is Managing Partner of Thought Matter, the independent design and creative studio that just won the 2026 National Design Award for Communication Design from the Cooper Hewitt, Smithsonian Design Museum — the field's highest national honor. It's an award that recognizes not a single project but a decade of practice, and Thought Matter's practice has been built around a bold idea: that imagination is a radical act. A Salvadoran-American designer, New Yorker, and mother of two, Jessie brings a perspective shaped by navigating spaces that weren't always designed for her. She teaches entrepreneurship at Pratt, mentors emerging designers, and leads a studio that works with cultural institutions, nonprofits, and commercial brands — all grounded in the belief that design is civic infrastructure, a tool for helping people see themselves as participants in shaping the world around them. In this episode, Jessie talks about the origin of the Constitution project, what it means to fund the work you actually want to talk about, why she thinks scale and speed aren't serving us, and why sitting down to make something with your hands — like the beaded bracelets she makes with her kids — still matters. Bio Jessie McGuire is Managing Partner of Thought Matter, the independent design studio that won the 2026 National Design Award for Communication Design from Cooper Hewitt, Smithsonian Design Museum — the field's highest national honor. She leads the studio's strategy and long-term vision, working with cultural institutions, nonprofits, and commercial brands on work grounded in the belief that design shapes what people believe. A Salvadoran-American designer and mother, Jessie is committed to expanding who gets to lead in the design industry. She teaches entrepreneurship at Pratt Institute, lectures on design as civic infrastructure, and mentors emerging designers. Before Thought Matter, she worked in-house at Kimberly-Clark and led projects for multinational brands.

Before the AI chatbot boom, psychologist and New Yorker contributor Paul Bloom wrote about how populations vulnerable to loneliness might be helped by the illusion of connection they offer. He discusses his more recent, updated reflection on the topic titled "A.I. Is About to Solve Loneliness. That's a Problem," which is the subject of Wednesday evening's Theater of War on the Radio at BAM.  Illustration by Moor Studio via Getty Creative Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

The Trump Administration has made little secret of its desire to dismantle the Federal Emergency Management Agency and give states the responsibility to respond to all manner of natural disasters on their own. FEMA has endured tremendous internal strife over leadership, and reports have suggested its mission has been compromised by partisan decision-making: President Trump—the sole arbiter of who ultimately gets FEMA relief—has rejected aid for Democratic-led states at the highest rate in the agency's history.  This has led to accusations of emergency aid being used as a “political cudgel,” and has had a chilling effect on some of the rank-and-file staff at the agency. The New Yorker Radio Hour's Adam Howard speaks to a longtime employee of FEMA about what's going on behind the scenes, and whether it could have a negative impact on the agency's ability to respond to the next emergency.  The subject of this interview is currently working for FEMA, a federal agency, and he asked to remain anonymous. His voice has been digitally regenerated for the audio of this interview. Further reading and listening:  “American Emergency: The Movement to Kill FEMA,” by “On the Media” “Outrage and Paranoia After Hurricane Helene,” by Jessica Pishko “For the Victims of Florence, Trump Needs to Prove that He Can Get Hurricane Recovery Right,” by Doug Bock Clark and Charles Bethea “Inequality and Hurricane Harvey,” by Ben Taub   New episodes of The New Yorker Radio Hour drop every Tuesday and Friday.

In their follow-up novel, 2054, they envisioned a breakdown in American politics fueled by a radical advance in AI. Now they make their boldest, most astonishing, and arguably most necessary leap—imagining the consequences of a climate war. By the year 2084, the world is divided into the equatorial countries that bear the brunt of the climate crisis—led by Nigeria, Brazil, and Indonesia—and wealthier countries like China and the US, beset by their own problems after a series of civil wars. Tensions between the two sets of countries have reached a breaking point, until finally the so-called Reparationist nations of the equator decide that only military force can bring them justice. A fascinating and disturbingly plausible extrapolation from current realities, 2084, like other classics of the genre such as Kim Stanley Robinson's The Ministry for the Future and Neal Stephenson's Termination Shock, deploys a global cast of characters, all protecting their interests as the fate of human civilization hangs in the balance. Individuals often seem small in the face of the forces that drive global change, but in the end human agency proves surprisingly decisive. Big doors can swing on small hinges. We have it within ourselves to write a different destiny, if only we can imagine it. Elliot Ackerman is the author of several novels, most recently Red Dress In Black and White. His books have been nominated for the National Book Award, the Andrew Carnegie Medal in both fiction and non-fiction, and the Dayton Literary Peace Prize among others. His writing often appears in Esquire, The New Yorker, and The New York Times where he is a contributing opinion writer, and his stories have been included inThe Best American Short Stories and The Best American Travel Writing. He is both a former White House Fellow and Marine, and served five tours of duty in Iraq and Afghanistan, where he received the Silver Star, the Bronze Star for Valor, and the Purple Heart. He divides his time between New York City and Washington, D.C. Website: www.

He was the Supreme Allied Commander at NATO and previously commanded U.S. Southern Command, overseeing military operations in Latin America.

Dana White's everywhere right now. Time Magazine. Rolling Stone. NPR. The New Yorker. Wait, what? The New Yorker? Believe it. Leading up to the UFC's Big Boy Birthday Bash at the White House, Dana's on a media tour with the actual, legitimate mainstream media. Not surprisingly, he's spent a LOT of that time talking about himself and his very special relationship with ya boi D-Tiddy, and not much time at all talking about the actual fights or the fighters. No surprise there. But, wait, did Dana seriously just find out THIS WEEK during his talk with New Yorker editor David Remnick that there had previously been sexual abuse allegations against Michael Jackson? That might be the wildest part of this whole thing. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

There will be a variety of celebrations to honor America's two-hundred-and-fiftieth anniversary this year. Much of it is to be expected: fireworks, red, white, and blue lights, even a military parade. But something else is happening, something that probably wouldn't occur if anyone other than Donald Trump were President. The Ultimate Fighting Championship, the premier league for mixed martial arts, is staging a fight at the White House. The U.F.C. was founded in 1993, and exploded in popularity after Dana White took over as president of the company, in 2001. He's also been friends with Donald Trump for a quarter century, and spoke on the President's behalf at all three Republican National Conventions where Trump was the nominee. He's stumped for him at rallies, and Trump even called him up to speak at his victory celebration on Election Night in 2024. David Remnick and White discuss his remarkable rise to prominence, and his relationship with the increasingly unpopular President. “He's not a racist,” White tells Remnick. “He's not a fascist. He loves this country. And if you're an American—race, religion, whatever it is—President Trump is on your team, that I guarantee you.”Further reading:  “Donald Trump's U.F.C.

Mea Culpa welcomes Tristan Snell. The former New York Assistant Attorney General famously lead the civil prosecution in the Trump University case for the state of New York against the Trump Organization. The 2013 case found the Trump Org guilty; forcing them to pay out $25 million in restitution. Snell spent years scaling the walls of the Trump Organization, largely creating the playbook for defeating Donald Trump in court. Ultimately, he said, it's about the receipts, not the witnesses. To beat Trump you need indisputable proof, a smoking gun and that only comes from having the documents to prove it. Snell is the founder of Main Street Law and appears as a commentator on CNN, and serves as a contributing writer for the Washington Post. His work as a lawyer and founder has been featured in a wide array of media outlets, from the New Yorker to the Atlantic to Last Week Tonight with John Oliver. He joins me today on Mea Culpa as the nation goes on indictment watch for the Mango Mussolini. Snell believes that the government has the goods this time and Trump may actually go to prison.

This episode originally aired on July 5, 2025. From Apple News In Conversation: Americans have a long history of obsession with the ultrarich, from Carnegie and Rockefeller to Bezos and Musk. And today, the gap between the rich and the poor is bigger than ever as the billionaire class has ascended to new heights. In his book, The Haves and Have-Yachts, New Yorker staff writer Evan Osnos explores the extravagant lifestyles of the wealthy and their outsize influence on politics. He sat down with Apple News In Conversation host Shumita Basu to talk about this unique moment — when billionaires are both resented and envied by the public — and what it means for the rest of us.
