If we are high-impact, low-ego folks and we keep our eye on the ball, that's a recipe for success no matter what industry you're in.NextGen Scientific is turning an ancient Middle Eastern medicinal plant into a modern platform for cancer drug development and wellness products.In this episode, I spoke with Jason West, co-founder of NextGen Scientific, a PurposeBuilt100™ company recognized for combining growth with measurable impact. Jason explained that the company operates along two related tracks: Hyatt Life Sciences, its dietary supplement business and Genzada Pharmaceuticals, its drug discovery and development company.The common thread is chemistry.Jason described the company's work with Arum palestinum, a plant that grows wild in the Middle East and has long been used there as a tea. That history is what pulled the scientific team in.“What caught our attention was that there are references to the use of this plant as a medicinal plant going all the way back to the 9th century AD,” Jason said. “For 1,100 years, it's been in continuous use.”That kind of longevity raised a serious scientific question for the team: why would people keep using it for more than a millennium if there were no benefit? Jason said NextGen began studying naturally occurring molecules in the plant, ultimately identifying compounds that became the basis for its oncology research.The company now has two lead oncology or oncology-related drug candidates. One is an oral capsule in clinical trials at Virginia Commonwealth University for late-stage prostate cancer, with trials expected in the Netherlands and Sweden. The other is a topical cream aimed at actinic keratosis, a precancerous skin condition with tens of millions of cases annually in the United States.Jason emphasized that the goal is not to replace oncologists but to help them. “We feel like we can be just one more tool in the toolbox of the oncologist, and that's what our ultimate goal is,” he said.Congratulations to NextGen Scientific LLC on ranking #46 on the 2026 PurposeBuilt100™ list! We're proud to recognize the company among America's fastest-growing mission-driven businesses, celebrating the connection between purpose, innovation, and growth. Meet the Class of 2026 — see the full list of winners →What I found especially compelling is the company's dual-path strategy. Drug development can be slow, expensive and risky. By building a supplement business alongside the pharmaceutical pipeline, NextGen has created revenue while continuing the long FDA-focused journey.That strategy emerged organically. In rural Kansas, word spread that the family was working with a tea tied to cancer wellness. People began asking for it. “By the end of the day, I think we were sending about 40 gallons of this tea out a week just to friends and family,” Jason said.NextGen Scientific is currently raising capital through a Regulation D offering for accredited investors, targeting just over $10 million. Jason said proceeds will help accelerate clinical trials, open new trial fronts and support marketing for the supplement business.It is exactly the kind of purpose-built growth story I love to celebrate.tl;dr:Jason West's team is translating an ancient Middle Eastern plant into cancer drugs and supplements.NextGen Scientific pairs Genzada Pharmaceuticals' clinical pipeline with Hyatt Life Sciences' wellness products.Small-town curiosity created unexpected demand, eventually reaching roughly 40 gallons of tea weekly.A Regulation D raise seeks just over $10 million from accredited investors to accelerate trials.Low-ego brilliance helps Jason keep hard conversations focused on data, kindness and learning.How to Develop Low-Ego Brilliance As a SuperpowerJason's superpower is Low-Ego Brilliance. He describes it as being among people with “big brains and small egos.” For Jason, the combination matters because “if we are high-impact, low-ego folks and we keep our eye on the ball, that's a recipe for success no matter what industry you're in.” He connects the idea to persistence, humility and disciplined focus: “You just have to keep on putting one foot in front of the other.” His advice is simple but powerful: “Take the phone call. Always take the phone call.”Jason shared a story about meeting with an exceptionally smart but highly skeptical person who seemed to have little patience for NextGen's science. Rather than taking offense or trying to win a personality contest, Jason and his team stayed calm and redirected the conversation to the data. A meeting scheduled for 15 or 20 minutes stretched to about two hours. By the end, the skeptic had become a friend. Jason summed up the lesson this way: “If you have the data on your side, you don't need to be too big for your britches.”Build teams with big brains and small egos; value impact over status.Keep your eye on the ball, especially when the work is long and difficult.Put one foot in front of the other rather than demanding instant success.When challenged, redirect the conversation to evidence instead of emotion.Be kind to skeptics; you can catch more flies with honey than vinegar.Take the phone call when you can because there is almost always something to learn.Stay curious, not judgmental, especially when you assume a conversation will not matter.By following Jason's example and advice, you can make low-ego brilliance 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. You do you!Guest ProfileJason West (he/him):Executive Vice President, NextGen ScientificAbout NextGen Scientific: NextGen Scientific is a biotechnology and life sciences company dedicated to advancing innovative oncology research and developing evidence-based therapeutic solutions.

What does it really mean to lead with purpose in a world that rewards speed over intention?In this episode of B the Way Forward, host Brenda Darden Wilkerson sits down with Betsy Ziegler, CEO of 1871, one of the nation's premier startup incubators and innovation hubs in Chicago. From her early days at McKinsey and GE to leading innovation at Northwestern University's Kellogg School of Management and now championing thousands of founders through 1871, Betsy has built a career defined not by a linear plan, but by a learner's mindset, radical authenticity, and an unwavering commitment to expanding what people believe is possible for themselves.Brenda and Betsy dig into what it takes to lead through ambiguity, how to stay grounded in your identity when your title becomes your identity, and why the future will be shaped by whoever has the courage to grab the pen. This is a conversation about redefining leadership, reimagining success, and building something that lasts beyond yourself.Connect with Betsy on Twitter (@betsyzeo) and LinkedInWe Learned AboutStaying present as a leader while operating in environments that are constantly looking aheadWhy non-linear career paths are the norm, not the exception, and why that's actually a competitive advantageThe "40 by 40" list framework Betsy used to reorient her life around living, not just achievingHow authentic leadership can cost you power in some rooms while building deep trust in othersThe danger of defining your self-worth through your job titleChapters:0:00 Introduction & Season Theme1:44 Welcome to B the Way Forward – Meet Betsy Ziegler3:11 Betsy's Response: Partnership Between 1871 and AnitaB.org4:02 Leading in the Present While Focused on What's Next8:26 Was Your Career Path Linear?

Ep 116 | Living longer is one thing. Feeling good while you're doing it is another—and that gap between healthspan and lifespan is what this episode is about.Bill Quateman has a practical read on why so many of us feel tired, foggy, and a little "off" even when our labs come back fine. He and Jen get into hair tissue mineral analysis (HTMA), the at-home test he calls the most foundational look at your own biochemistry, plus why minerals are the spark plugs behind your energy, the truth about mineral deficiency and fatigue, and how the slow metabolic decline that quietly starts in your early 30s doesn't have to run the show. They also talk longevity without the hype and what it really takes to build a healthy, non-toxic home. Jen opens up about chasing her own health backwards after a brain injury and a stroke, and why she brought so many healing tools into her space.This one's for you if you're taking a cabinet full of supplements with no idea what's working, if you feel not sick exactly but not really well either, or if your energy and focus just aren't what they were ten years ago and you're ready to feel better as you age.

Parish renewal can look very different when you're no longer talking about it from a diocesan office—but actually living it as a pastor and parish leader. In Episode 231, Ron Huntley sits down with Fr. Peter Wojcik and Marco Oropeza talk about what they have learned through years of pastoral renewal at St. Clement Parish in Chicago—and why those lessons eventually led them to launch Magnified Ministries. If you're a pastor or parish leader wondering how to move from ideas about renewal into the lived reality of parish transformation, this conversation is for you. And if you're ready to take an honest look at your own parish, take the Parish Missional Health Assessment at huntleyleadership.com. In this episode, you'll learn: – Why renewal leaders need to experience transformation themselves, not simply teach a strategy to others. – Why parish transformation moves much more slowly than a strategic plan might suggest, and why that slowness can be valuable. – How listening to a parish community can become the starting point for vision, strategy, and engagement. – How pastors and parish councils can work together without confusing their different responsibilities and authority. – How to create meaningful connection and belonging as a parish grows larger, including the use of smaller communities and trained leaders who listen rather than simply promote programs. – Why parish renewal requires identifying, forming, and releasing lay leaders rather than relying on the pastor to carry every ministry. – Why pastors shouldn't assume they have to build renewal alone. About Fr. Peter Wojcik Fr. Peter Wojcik is pastor of Saint Clement Parish and Pastoral Strategy Leader for the Archdiocese of Chicago.

Almost all kids are afraid of the dark, and sometimes that fear even lingers into adulthood. It's a shame really because, contrary to what you might think, darkness is actually not our enemy but a friend when it comes to drifting off to dreamland. Being exposed to light at night can have negative consequences on person's health in the long-term. That's according to a study by researchers at Northwestern University's Feinberg School of Medicine in the United States. They published their findings in 2022, having discovered a correlation between exposure to light while sleeping and conditions like obesity, high blood pressure and diabetes. What's the link between light and disease? How can I ensure I'm not at risk from light exposure at night? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions!

In prerevolutionary Russia, it was not uncommon for children to dream of becoming terrorists when they grew up. “It was a respected profession,” says Northwestern University professor Gary Saul Morson, who now sees troubling parallels between modern-day America and an era in Russia when terrorism became fashionable and radicals came to see violence as an expression of moral virtue. Today, Morson joins School of War to discuss what Fyodor Dostoyevsky understood about the terrorist mind, why good people can be persuaded to support terrible acts, and what America loses when it stops teaching the history of communism in schools. 3:09 America and Revolutionary Russia 3:47 The Rise of Modern Terrorism 4:38 When Terrorism Became a Respected Profession 6:10 Why Terrorists Had So Much Power 6:22 Why Russian Liberals Failed to Oppose Terrorism 7:26 The Danger of Celebrating Political Violence 9:36 Dostoevsky's Radical Youth 11:31 Dostoevsky's Arrest and Mock Execution 13:15 Understanding the Psychology of Revolutionaries 14:29 How Dostoevsky Predicted Totalitarianism 17:55 Why Communism Was Worse Than the Czars 20:11 Why Liberals Must Oppose Extremism 22:02 The Psychology of Left-Wing Totalitarianism 24:53 What Young People Don't Know About Communism 28:16 How Good People Come to Support Evil 34:06 What Left and Right-Wing Extremists Have in Common 36:17 How Do We Fight Political Extremism?

Hakeem Jeffires and other “establishment” Democrats have been working hard to distance themselves from the DSA platform. Here’s the thing: DSA candidates themselves don’t subscribe to the more radical parts of the DSA’s official agenda. Is it fair to hold DSA candidates responsible for the DSA platform, and what is the messaging strategy for the general election? Professor Jason Arday was accused of plagiarism. After he was forced by his University to resign, he had literally hundreds of hit-pieces written about him in the press, in stark contrast to white professors in similar situations.

He spent 14 years working with Barack Obama, ultimately serving as the President's chief speechwriter and helping craft some of the most consequential speeches of the Obama presidency.But what does it actually take to find the right words when millions of people are listening?In this conversation, Cody and I discuss the hidden craft of presidential speechwriting, what he learned working alongside Obama, why great communication starts with understanding people, and how storytelling can turn complicated ideas into something people actually feel.We also explore leadership under pressure, the tension between optimism and cynicism, finding your own voice, the responsibility that comes with writing words for someone else, and why the stories we choose to tell matter.This is a conversation about far more than politics.

Soldiers, Angels, and Avengers: A History of the Jewish Brigade (McGill-Queen's University Press, 2026) tells the compelling story of the Jewish Brigade Infantry Group (JBG), a five-thousand-strong military unit, recruited primarily from the Jewish population of Palestine, and the only exclusively Jewish military unit to fight under the British flag during the Second World War. Gianluca Fantoni reconstructs the military and human experience of the brigade in Italy and investigates its enduring and controversial place in memory and public debate. Formed in 1944, the JBG saw combat in the final stages of the Italian campaign, where its soldiers fought with distinction against German forces. After the war, many of its members – who often had little or no military training, and included artists, scientists, and farmers – engaged in clandestine efforts to smuggle Holocaust survivors and weapons into Palestine, laying the groundwork for the future Israeli state. Others sought retribution against Nazis and collaborators in acts that revealed both the trauma of genocide and the desire for justice. Far more than a conventional military history, Soldiers, Angels, and Avengers is both a critical study of the political uses of history and a vivid, passionate narrative that brings to life the men and women of the brigade. Accessible and engaging, this book offers readers a rare lens through which to understand the intersections of war, memory, and politics in twentieth-century Europe. Roberto Mazza is currently a visiting scholar at the Buffett Institute for Global Affairs at Northwestern University.

A product with nothing but perfect reviews converts at about the same rate as one averaging 3.25 stars. In this episode of Content Amplified, Todd Caponi, author of The Transparency Sale and former CRO of PowerReviews, explains the research behind that number and what it means for how you market and sell. Todd walks through the study his team ran with Northwestern University: roughly 96% of buyers read reviews, 86% go looking for the negative ones first, and an average score between 4.2 and 4.5 is the sweet spot for conversion. He makes the case that naming what you give up to be great at your core speeds up sales cycles, raises win rates, and pre-qualifies leads before anyone fills out a form. Along the way he pulls from a 1910 sales book warning that "buyers know more nowadays," Arthur Sheldon's 1911 line that true salesmanship is the science of service, and the IKEA, Costco, and Slim Jim playbooks. If your messaging still says you are perfect at everything, this one will change how you write it.About ToddTodd Caponi is a longtime sales leader, speaker, and author who describes himself as equal parts passion and nerd. He was chief revenue officer of PowerReviews in Chicago, the engine behind the review collection and display on retailer sites, where the buyer-behavior research that became his first book was born. He has written three books, The Transparency Sale, The Transparent Sales Leader, and Four Levers Negotiating, and now teaches companies of all sizes how to turn transparency into a revenue advantage. He also keeps a sales museum in his house stocked with books, magazines, and artifacts from the late 1800s through the early 1900s, which fuels his solo show on the history of the profession.Show NotesConnect with Todd on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/toddcaponi/Todd's website: ToddCaponi.comThe Sales History Podcast (solo, no interviews, available on all platforms)Todd's books: The Transparency Sale, The Transparent Sales Leader, and Four Levers Negotiating (released January 27)Historical sources Todd quotes in the episode:Thomas Herbert Russell, Salesmanship Theory and Practice (1910)Arthur Sheldon, The Art of Selling (1911)Arthur Dunn, Scientific Selling and Advertising (1921)Text us what you think about this episode!

He left in 2025, as the agency was being dismantled, having moved roughly $1.7 billion of funding in the process.In this episode of Ideas in Development, Dean joins Oliver Hanney to discuss what evidence-based policy actually looks like inside a government institution; how his team picked their battles; why collaboration beat prescription; and where the limits of taking goals as given lie. They also cover the rise of embedded evidence labs in countries like Rwanda and Peru, the synthesis and implementation gaps between academia and policy, and whether there are questions in development economics, like the impacts of cash transfers, on which we now have enough evidence.Dean Karlan is Professor of Economics and Finance at Northwestern University, founder of Innovations for Poverty Action, and former Chief Economist of USAID.

Phelps Wood is a Senior Consultant at Continuity Family Business Consulting, where he helps enterprising families navigate leadership transitions, resolve conflict, strengthen governance, and preserve both their businesses and family relationships. With more than 20 years of experience as an operating executive, board member, and advisor, he works with families to identify shared values, establish realistic goals, improve collaboration, and build enduring legacies.Having grown up in a family business, Phelps understands firsthand the emotional and operational complexities of balancing business priorities with family relationships. He draws on his experience running a family-owned natural resource company and guiding the ownership transition of his own family's business to help clients approach difficult conversations with greater clarity, empathy, and purpose.Phelps holds an MBA from Northwestern University's Kellogg School of Management, as well as an MA and a BA, cum laude, from Middlebury College. Based in the San Francisco Bay Area, he focuses his work on family business organization, strategy, succession, and conflict management.SHOW SUMMARYIn this episode of The Disruptive Successor Show, Jonathan Goldhill welcomes back Phelps Wood to examine the hidden financial and organizational cost of unresolved conflict in family businesses.Phelps explains that conflict itself is not necessarily the problem. Differences in goals, values, priorities, and leadership styles are unavoidable. The real danger emerges when family members are unable or unwilling to discuss those differences productively. Avoidance can lead to passive conflict, stalled decisions, executive turnover, failed integrations, resentment, succession problems, and declining business value.The conversation explores the distinction between estate planning and succession planning, the three major components of family conflict, and the importance of addressing the problem behind the problem. Phelps also shares practical examples of how family tension can delay major initiatives, drive talented employees away, and create existential risks for otherwise successful enterprises.Jonathan and Phelps discuss compensation, family employment policies, ownership structures, underperforming family members, and the emotional impact of grief during succession. They also explain why healthy family businesses need both structural solutions and personal growth.The episode offers a powerful reminder that addressing conflict is not a sign that a family is failing. It is an essential responsibility of family business leadership.KEY TAKEAWAYSConflict is unavoidable, but unmanaged conflict can threaten the entire enterprise.An estate plan determines where assets go, while a succession plan defines how ownership, leadership, and decisions will function.Family conflict often develops from opposing goals, incompatible values, and unresolved historical baggage.Passive conflict can be just as damaging as open arguments because it prevents families from making necessary decisions.Unresolved family tension can drive away talented executives and employees who feel unsupported or unable to succeed.The true cost of employee turnover includes recruitment, lost productivity, stalled initiatives, customer relationships, and missed opportunities.Structural solutions such as ownership meetings, family employment policies, governance processes, and clearly defined roles can reduce friction.Voting can create repeated winners and losers, while consensus-building helps families identify the interests behind each person's position.Succession becomes more dangerous when families delay conversations until illness, death, or another crisis forces a transition.Underperformance should be addressed through clear roles, measurable expectations, regular reviews, accountability, and appropriate support.Families must look beyond the issue being argued about and identify the deeper emotional, historical, or identity-based source of disagreement.The strongest family businesses learn how to collaborate, forgive, adapt, and commit to change across generations.QUOTES“An estate plan tells you where the assets are going to go. A succession plan is much more of an operating plan.”“Conflict is inherent in a family business. The problem is the inability to manage it.”“If a family is not able to talk about differences, over time it creates something that can be very destructive.”“Your A players will very quickly leave if they find that they are not being supported.”“The question is: What is the problem behind the problem?”“Voting has losers, and if it is the same loser over and over again, they start to harbor resentment.”“You have to make sure the business is running well, but the benefit of owning a family business is being able to do things that would not necessarily make sense for a regular business.”“It is never too early to start planning for succession. It is also never too late, but the later you go, the more your options constrict.”“Addressing conflict early is not an admission that the family is failing. It is part of responsible family business leadership.”“Family businesses are Shakespeare. You want to be the history. You do not want to be the comedy or the tragedy.”Connect and learn more about Phelps Wood: https://www.linkedin.com/in/phelps-wood/If you enjoyed today's episode, please subscribe, review, and share with a friend who would benefit from the message.

Hi, friends, and welcome back to our series, "On Becoming: The Art and Craft of Personal Storytelling." I'm Tom Campbell, former Pomona and Holy Cross admissions officer, and one of the CEG podcast co-hosts, alongside my lovely colleagues Tillie and Ethan. In this series, we take a close look at personal essays written by real students, talking about why we love them, what makes them work, and how they came to be.  In this episode, we break down an essay that we're calling The Translator. This student, who worked with one of our amazing essay coaches Lavon Robinson a few years back, wanted to share how he acted as a translator not just for his brother on the autism spectrum, but for other neurodivergent students in his school and wider community. It's a model for anyone who wants to write an essay about a relationship that's been particularly meaningful to them, but is nervous about making the essay too much about the other person. If you're the kind of person who enjoys seeing how things get made, whether it's a great meal, a film scene, or a piece of writing, I have a feeling you might enjoy this one. Lavon (he/him) has always been a coach. From managing fundraising campaigns, teaching swimming, and school counseling, Lavon finds joy in coaching others to find their joy. He earned his BA in Business from Illinois Wesleyan University and his M.ED from DePaul University. He also has a College Counseling Certificate from UCSD. He currently works as a school counselor at an independent school in Chicago after spending eight years as a college counselor at a large suburban high school. He has hosted webinars with 500+ families on how to best work with their school counselor and visited various colleges around the country for professional development. His students have been accepted to colleges including Northwestern University, the University of Southern California, Williams College, and the University of Florida. At the core of his work is building connections with unconditional positive regard as he works with students to build trust and reach their potential. He understands the college admissions process is stressful and takes the most joy in supporting students to relieve anxiety while going through the process. We hope you enjoy.    Play-by-Play 3:15 – Lavon shares his path from school counseling to becoming a CEG essay coach 6:52 – What kinds of students does Lavon tend to be matched with as a CEG essay coach? 9:29 – How does Lavon use CEG's brainstorming exercises to help students reflect, even outside of essay coaching? 10:49 – What has surprised Lavon most about being an essay coach, and how has his perspective grown? 13:01 – Do college essays need a title? 14:06 – Lavon introduces the student behind "The Translator," and how he arrived at CEG already deep into drafts about his brother 18:41 – How many drafts did it take to find the right balance between the brother and the student himself? 21:16 – Which brainstorming exercises helped unlock the "translator" theme? 27:01 – How does Lavon connect a student's roles and identities to CEG's admission nutrients?  31:30 – Lavon reads the essay, which we're calling "The Translator"  36:27 – Which admission nutrients show up throughout the essay? 38:26 – What works well in this student's opening paragraph?  45:13 – How did Lavon help the student build more vulnerability into each draft? 46:13 – How does bringing in his own emotional experience keep the essay focused on the student, even while writing about his brother? 47:52 – How can students write about their extracurriculars without over-explaining them? 53:00 – How did Lavon coach the student to write about his research in an accessible way? 54:11 – What does it mean to be "strategically general" in a college essay? 59:48 – How does closing turn the essay's focus back to the student himself? 1:04:53 – Why small, specific details are what take an essay from good to great 1:05:59 – Closing thoughts    Resources "The Translator" Essay CEG's College Admission Nutrients (aka The Great College Application Test) College Essay Guy's Personal Statement Resources College Essay Guy's College Application Hub  

Why did one of the most famous and ambitious philosophers in European history fall completely out of favor in just a few decades, and why is his totalizing view of reality still relevant today? Northwestern University's associate professor of philosophy and president of the Hegel Society of America, Dr. Mark Alznauer, joins host PJ Wehry to discuss the breathtaking scope and historical impact of Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel. Dr. Alznauer explores Hegel's attempt to map the entire cosmos, human civilization, and religion from a single logical concept in his book, Hegel's Sole Idea: The Last Great Metaphysical System. They examine how Hegel's "encyclopedia system" served as the last grand metaphysical project in Western thought, why his immediate successors violently rejected it, and how his legacy continues to shape our modern historical awareness. In this conversation they explore: Why Hegel's system is comparable to monumental literary works like Dante's Divine Comedy or Tolstoy's War and Peace in its attempt to provide a comprehensive, organized worldview. The provocative way Hegel positioned his philosophy as the "Holy Spirit," claiming it could conceptually prove the theological truths that Christianity only provided in pictures or representations. The swift collapse of Hegel's reputation after his death in 1831, leading to the deep divide between the Right and Left Hegelians, including the materialist critiques of Ludwig Feuerbach and Karl Marx. Søren Kierkegaard's fierce rejection of Hegel's objective system, arguing that true Christianity requires a passionate, existential decision rather than cold, speculative contemplation. How Hegel's philosophy of history—arguing that human epochs unfold with internal, logical necessity toward freedom—differs radically from the contingent, sociological explanations we rely on today. The neo-Hegelian influence on Francis Fukuyama's "End of History," and how questioning the ultimate direction of political history remains deeply relevant as our democratic landscapes continue to evolve. This is a conversation for anyone interested in philosophy, history, and theology who wants to understand the dizzying ambition of the last great metaphysical system and the profound ways its failure shaped the modern intellectual landscape. Make sure to check out Dr. Alznauer's book: Hegel's Soul Idea: The Last Great Metaphysical System

On this Summer Friday, we've put together some of our favorite recent interviews, including: Ben Rhodes, contributing opinion writer for the New York Times, co-host of "Pod Save the World," an advisor to former president Barack Obama and the author of All We Say: The Battle for American Identity: A History in 15 Speeches (Random House, 2026), talks about his new book that tells the history of the United States and its central conflicts  through public speeches, from Benjamin Franklin to Donald Trump. Robinson Meyer, founding executive editor of Heatmap, talks about the DSA's evolving relationship to the Green New Deal and climate policy in general, as its members keep winning elections in big cities. WNYC has been targeted by scammers who posed as hosts, and offered authors interviews -- for a fee (which WNYC would never do). Rachel Tobac, co-founder and CEO of Social Proof Security, and Kenneth Atkins, assistant director of IT and data security at WNYC, talk about how to spot sneaky online phishing scams, and how to deal if you fall for it. Jeffrey Winters, professor of political science at Northwestern University and the director of the Equality Development and Globalization Studies Program at Northwestern's Buffett Institute for Global Affairs and the author of The Blind Spot: How Oligarchs Dominate Our Democracies (Scribner, 2026), talks about the history of oligarchy, how to fight it, and why it maintains power in a democracy. Meghan Sullivan, professor of philosophy at Notre Dame and founder of the Institute for Ethics and the Common Good, offers her take on the contemporary context for belief, or doubt, in God as religious affiliation largely declines in the U.S.   These interviews were lightly polished up and edited for time, the original versions are available here: Speeches as a Key to American Identity (June 8, 2026) What the DSA's Popularity Means for Climate Policy (July 7, 2026) How to Avoid Sneaky Phishing Scams (May 5, 2026) When Voters Support Oligarchs (May 26, 2026) How Belief in God Has Changed (May 20, 2026)   Photo: Whimbrel on the beach at Fort Tilden beach, Queens.
