Journalists are in the fourth-least trusted profession in Britain, a yearly survey has found. Almost two-thirds of people asked said they don't trust journalists to tell the truth, according to the Ipsos MORI Veracity Index's December 2021 edition. Despite trust in journalism recording a rise from 2020 levels, the only professions ranked lower are government ministers, politicians in general and advertising executives. So why are journalists deemed so untrustworthy? Do the internet and social media have something to do with it? And how does this affect journalists themselves? Trainee reporters Iwan, James, Matthew and Marina are joined by former managing editor of the Sun Graham Dudman and news literacy project NewsWise's Sorcha Hughes to discuss distrust, disinformation and the news media.

Das All ist voll von Brocken - und alle paar Wochen kommt einer von ihnen der Erde nach kosmischen Maßstäben relativ nahe. Ab und an sind die Himmelskörper so riesig, dass auch Laien sie von der Erde aus mit einfacheren Teleskopen beobachten können. Und früher oder später könnte ein solcher Asteroid aus dem All auf Kollisionskurs mit der Erde geraten. Um die Katastrophe zu verhindern, die mit einem Einschlag auf der Erde verbunden wäre, arbeiten Expert*innen schon seit Jahren an Ideen für Abwehrsysteme. Im Gespräch mit Host Maja Bahtijarević spricht Guido Meyer über seine Recherche zu diesem Thema.

Hello and welcome to the ZimmCast. I'm Chuck Zimmerman. After missing it for a few years I was able to attend the Agricultural Relations Council (ARC) Annual Meeting which took place in Richmond, VA. We had a good turnout with some great sessions. I interviewed several of the attendees. More on that in a moment. The Golden ARC Awards, which were started in 1990 as the pre-eminent ag public relations awards, had many entries and awards were announced during the meeting. The awards themselves did not get to the hotel on time so they will be sent to the winners. You can find a list of all the winners on the ARC website. So, let's get started a conversation I had with Lynn Henderson, AgriMarketing, who was inducted into the ARC Public Relations Hall of Fame. Next up, I spoke with Sara Wyant, Agri-Pulse, who participated in an editor panel which had the job of talking about reaching editors with news and information. Also participating on the editor panel was Jessica Johnson, NewsWise. There was an ag panel discussion on the “Beneficial Swamp Dwellers.” I spoke with Bethany Shively, ASTA, who talked about the value of those fighting the good public relations fight for ag and food in Washington, DC. She also gets in a plug for the upcoming ASTA CSS & Seed Expo in Chicago in December. I also spoke with Erin Nash, NAFB. NAFB was a sponsor at the ARC Annual Meeting. Erin talks about services NAFB offers to ag public relations professionals. Lastly in the program for this week, I spoke with conference attendee, Hannah Thompson-Weeman, Animal Ag Alliance. This was her first ARC Annual Meeting. Hannah also provides a plug for the organizations annual Stakeholders meeting. I'm really glad I was able to go to the ARC meeting this year and spend some face to face time with so many friends in the industry. Next on my schedule is the NAFB annual meeting in Kansas City. I'll be there all day for Trade Talk, so maybe I'll see you then. That's the ZimmCast for this week. I hope you enjoyed it and thanks for listening.

Scott discusses his 83-mile ultramarathon, free climbing, and what life lesson he learned from Megadeth. Many runners aim to complete a 10k, half-marathon, or maybe even a marathon Others have the goal of to complete a triathlon, even an Ironman. For Scott Drum, a two-time state champion and collegiate runner, the ultimate goal was to do something that nobody had ever accomplished (or even tried before): consecutively run Michigan’s National Lakeshore trail and then the Isle Royale National Park trail, covering a total of 83.5 miles or 134.4 kilometers. Scott Drum completed this feat in just over 24 hours, including the time he spent in a float plane flying from one park to the other. Starting this fall, Scott will start his next big challenge: running 25 "classic" mountain adventure trails across North America and then using the data gathered by his wearable technology to write an evidenced-based book about his experience. When he’s not on a mountain or in a pair of running shoes, Scott acts as an Associate Professor of Exercise Science at Northern Michigan University.00:00 - Intro | 01:54 - Characteristics that mark a successful ulta-runner | 04:03 - What makes an ultrarunner durable | 06:04 - The optimal diet for ultramarathon runners before the event | 08:16 - Optimal diet for ultramarathon runners during the event | 11:12 - Scott explains his recent study on the impact of in-class exercise on academic performance | 13:19 - Scott explains his preparation and logistics for his [80+] mile run | 20:03 - How Scott would have prepared differently for his run | 22:10 - Scott explains what it’s like to run at night | 23:36 - Why Scott prefers to not listen to music when he runs | 24:22 - Why Scott is drawn to Mount Rainier and Long’s Peak | 28:01 - Why Scott climbed Long’s Peak without ropes for 5,000 feet | 32:09 - Scott explains his other climbing experiences | 34:31 - The connection between exercise, nature, and relationships in Scott’s life | 37:16 - Scott talks about a personal failure | 40:36 - The lesson Scott learned from this failure | 42:29 - Scott’s relationship with his twin brother, Greg, and his wife, Liz | 49:07 - What Scott would do if he couldn’t exercise | 51:46 - A surprising fact about Scott | 52:27 - Scott’s favorite movie | 53:39 - A message that resonates with Scott | 55: 37 - A few of the kindest things that people have done for ScottScott's CV Scott's Mountain Adventure Book Project Scott's interview with NewsWise about his runScott's articles:The Isle Royale 40 | What's the Thorn in My Shin? | Heart StoppingMusic credit: Lee Rosevere's "Southside" (adapted) (CC BY 4.0)Support the show (https://www.patreon.com/switchbacktech)

I love Kanye West. Newswise, he's the gift who keeps on giving—a living, breathing savior in Givenchy boots and layered flannel. If I wake up in the morning and he hasn't waxed poetical in the media, I simply assume he's off turning water into moscato somewhere.Uh huh, honey.This week, the rapper insisted that his career is just like that of a solider in country. So, being a lover of knowledge, I called up a friendly Iraq war veteran to explain, in my latest podcast episode, exactly how correct Kanye is. Longtime fans of this show will be delighted to hear that my chosen expert is... well, I'll let you discover for yourself.Also this week!The Nerd Out's Lisa Jenkins explains why Lady Gaga is not the failure you want her to be.We disclose the last known whereabouts of Ludacris.Lisa and I drill down—way down—on why you need to pay $40 for a Mrs. Carter Tour T-shirt.I go into feverish detail about precisely what you need to get me for the holidays.You're welcome.
