For hundreds of years sailors have told stories about miles of glowing ocean during moonless nights. This phenomenon is known as "milky seas," but the only scientific sample was collected in 1985. So atmospheric scientist Justin Hudson, a PhD candidate at University of Colorado, used accounts spanning 400 years to create a database of milky seas. By also using satellite images to visually confirm the tales, Justin hopes his research brings us one step closer to unraveling this maritime mystery.

President Trump wants to make a deal with Vladimir Putin to end the war in Ukraine. Putin says Russia wants to engage in peace talks, but Putin has also been ordering the most widespread and violent aerial attacks on Ukraine in years. This has led Trump to criticize Putin more and more in public — a step that's been rare over the course of Trump's two terms in office.Three years into his war on Ukraine, what does Putin really want?

NPR Lawsuit Against the Trump Administration: NPR and Colorado public radio stations filed a lawsuit challenging an executive order by President Trump that defunds NPR and PBS. The hosts criticize the lawsuit, arguing it misuses the First Amendment to justify taxpayer funding for what they describe as biased media. Debate Over Transgender Athletes in Women's Sports: The episode discusses California's policy shift in response to federal pressure, allowing biological girls to retain championship slots even if outperformed by transgender athletes. The hosts frame this as a political victory and a sign of retreat by progressive leadership. James Comey Controversy: Former FBI Director James Comey is accused of posting a cryptic image interpreted as a veiled threat against Donald Trump. The hosts allege Comey’s actions are politically motivated and potentially criminal, referencing federal statutes on threats against the president. Media Bias and Political Polarization: The episode critiques mainstream media outlets, particularly NPR and PBS, for alleged liberal bias. It includes audio clips and commentary on statements made by NPR’s CEO, Catherine Maher, during congressional hearings. Electoral Strategy and Public Opinion: The hosts discuss how issues like transgender participation in sports are resonating with moderate voters, especially women, and influencing campaign strategies.

Over the last few months U.S.-China trade relations have been pretty hard to make sense of – unless you look at what's happening through the lens of game theory. Game theory is all about how decisions are made, based not just on one side's options and payoffs, but on the choices and incentives of others.So, are Donald Trump and Xi Jinping competing in a simple game of chicken? Or is the game more like the prisoner's dilemma? On today's show, we try to decide which of four possibilities might be the best model for this incredibly high-stakes game. And we take a look at who is playing well and who might need to adjust their strategy.For more on the U.S.-China trade war: - The 145% tariff already did its damage - What happened to U.S. farmers during the last trade war - What "Made in China" actually meansThis show was hosted by Keith Romer and Amanda Aronczyk.

On Tuesday, NPR and three Colorado public radio stations sued the Trump administration for violating the First Amendment. On this week's On the Media, the soon-to-be lone Democratic commissioner at the FCC speaks out against what she calls the weaponization of her agency. Plus, the final episode of The Divided Dial introduces the unlikely group trying to take over shortwave radio.[01:37] Host Micah Loewinger speaks with Anna Gomez, soon to be the lone Democratic commissioner at the Federal Communications Commission, about her makeshift media tour–where Gomez is speaking out about what she sees as the weaponization of her agency. [12:47] Episode 4 of The Divided Dial, Season 2: Wall St. Wants Your Airwaves. In recent years, creative, often music-focused pirate broadcasting has been thriving on shortwave. Reporter Katie Thornton reveals how these surreptitious broadcasters are up against a surprising enemy: not the FCC, but a deep-pocketed group of finance bros that is trying to wrestle the airwaves away from the public, and use them for a money-making scheme completely antithetical to broadcasting.

Depending on what time it is, your body responds differently to an injury or infection. During the day, you're likely to heal faster and fight infection better than at night. And historically, scientists weren't entirely sure why. That picture is starting to clear up thanks to a new study published last week in the journal Science Immunology. The research finds a missing piece of the puzzle in neutrophils, powerful immune cells that — despite living less than 24 hours — know the difference between day and night.Got a question about how the body works?

New books by Joy Harjo and Ruthie Ackerman focus on very different moments in the life cycle of motherhood. First, Harjo's new book Washing My Mother's Body is an illustrated version of a poem she wrote in order to process grief. Harjo, the 23rd U.S. Poet Laureate and member of the Muscogee Nation, never got to carry out an important ritual after her mother's death – but returns in the poem to take care of things left undone. In today's episode, Harjo speaks with NPR's Leila Fadel about that ritual and the potency of the mother-daughter relationship. Then, journalist Ruthie Ackerman grew up hearing family stories that made her believe she shouldn't become a mom. But years later, she learned pieces of those stories weren't true. The Mother Code is a new memoir exploring Ackerman's indecision around becoming a parent. In today's episode, she speaks with NPR's Juana Summers about viewing maternal ambivalence as the norm.To listen to Book of the Day sponsor-free and support NPR's book coverage, sign up for Book of the Day+ at plus.npr.org/bookofthedayLearn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy

As I continue to advance the tree and perennial food nursery here at my farm, I'm always on the lookout for new resources on anything about growing and breeding perennial food sources, the history of their cultivation, and the cultures that were and are connected to these woodland and orchard based staple foods. For that reason I was super excited to see the new title “Feed us with Trees” from my friends at New Society Publishers, by author Elspeth Hay. Elspeth is a writer, public radio host, and creator of the Local Food Report, a weekly feature that has aired on CAI, the Cape & Islands NPR Station, since 2008. Deeply immersed in her own local food system, she writes and reports for print, radio, and online media with a focus on food and the environment. Elspeth's work has been featured in the Boston Globe, NPR's Kitchen Window, Heated with Mark Bittman, The Provincetown Independent, and numerous other publications. Through her conversations with growers, harvesters, processors, cooks, policy makers, Indigenous knowledge-keepers, scientists, researchers, and visionaries, she aims to rebuild our cultural store of culinary knowledge—and to reconnect us with the people, places, and ideas that feed us. In this session, Elspeth shares her journey of developing a passion for perennial food systems, particularly focusing on nuts and tree-based staple crops. Her early exposure to nature evolved into an obsession with acorns and other tree nuts. Her research went on to reveal the extensive use of tree nuts as staple foods across the northern hemisphere and the historical as well as the cultural shifts that led to their decline in favor of annual grain crops. Elspeth delves into the nutritional and ecological benefits of these perennial foods, the complexities of modern industrial agriculture, and the resurgence of interest in tree crops, especially in the American Midwest. She also explores innovative recipes and culinary uses of nuts, especially acorns and chestnuts, while emphasizing the importance of integrating perennial crop systems into modern diets and agricultural practices. This conversation covers a lot of ground from land management, economic models, and the promising future of perennial food systems. As with all the books that I focus on from my friends at new society publishers, we're running a book giveaway for “Feed us with Trees.” By now you know the drill. Send me a message on our Discord community. If you're not already a member you can sign up through the links on our homepage or the bio on Instagram. I'll choose a winner one week after this episode goes live, and If you live anywhere in North America we'll send a physical copy. Everywhere else you'll receive a digital version.
Meet my friends, Clay Travis and Buck Sexton! If you love Verdict, the Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show might also be in your audio wheelhouse. Politics, news analysis, and some pop culture and comedy thrown in too. Here’s a sample episode recapping four Thursday takeaways. Give the guys a listen and then follow and subscribe wherever you get your podcasts. Trump's Superpower a breakdown of the latest developments involving the FBI and internal debates within the GOP about whether Trump administration officials like FBI Director Patel and Deputy Director Bongino are moving fast enough on key reforms. Buck emphasizes the importance of managing expectations while supporting the broader mission of government accountability. A major segment focuses on Elon Musk’s departure from his role as a special government employee. Buck discusses Musk’s impact on reducing government waste (DOGE) and his return to leading companies like SpaceX, Tesla, and X (formerly Twitter), highlighting Musk’s role as a tech visionary and free speech advocate. The show then transitions into a deep dive on the “Big Beautiful Bill,” a major legislative effort by the Trump administration. Buck addresses conservative concerns about the lack of visible spending cuts and explains the role of rescissions in the budget process. He features commentary from OMB Director Russell Vought, who confirms that a rescissions package targeting foreign aid and public broadcasting (including NPR and PBS) is being sent to Congress. Buck critiques government funding for media entities, arguing that taxpayer dollars should not support partisan outlets. The Virus of Leftwing Insanity Another key topic is the Trump administration’s push to limit foreign student enrollment at elite U.S. universities like Harvard. Buck reacts to a federal judge’s injunction blocking the administration from revoking Harvard’s ability to host foreign students. He frames this as part of a broader judicial resistance to Trump’s agenda and criticizes the high percentage of foreign students in STEM fields at top institutions, particularly from China. Buck argues that this undermines national security and American competitiveness, calling for a rethinking of U.S. higher education policy. Throughout the hour, Buck underscores the Trump administration’s aggressive, multi-front strategy to implement its agenda despite legal and political obstacles. He praises the administration’s persistence and contrasts it with the more cautious approach of past Republican efforts. Hostage Shows Receipts A firsthand account from a former hostage, Omer Shem Tov, held by Hamas, who claims his treatment improved significantly after Donald Trump was elected—underscoring Trump’s perceived strength on foreign policy and national security. Sexton uses this testimony to reinforce the argument that America’s enemies fear Trump’s leadership and are more cautious in their actions when he is in power. Michelle Obama Cult A deep dive into the political and cultural influence of former First Lady Michelle Obama, with Buck Sexton leading the conversation while Clay Travis is on vacation. This hour is packed with sharp political commentary, media analysis, and personal insights, making it a must-listen for conservative audiences and political news followers. Buck opens the hour by revisiting his long-standing prediction that Michelle Obama would never run for president, arguing that the media-manufactured image of her as an untouchable cultural icon has begun to unravel. He critiques the media’s role in creating what he calls the “cult of Michelle Obama,” comparing it to the idolization of figures like the late Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg. Buck references Michelle Obama’s recent podcast appearance, highlighting a controversial quote where she stated that “the least important thing” a woman’s reproductive system does is produce life. He calls this statement “heinous” and “perverse,” emphasizing its potential negative impact on young women and public discourse. The discussion also touches on Michelle Obama’s past comments, including her infamous 2008 remark about being proud of America “for the first time” when Barack Obama was nominated. Buck uses this to underscore what he sees as her long-standing disdain for traditional American values.

Celeste shares: How to start a conversation when you don't know what to say Why the common advice about conversation (like “maintain eye contact”) doesn't actually work The real difference between debate and discussion + why we're confusing the two The surprising neuroscience behind great conversation (and why voice matters more than words) The truth about curiosity + how to practice it (even if it doesn't come naturally) How neural coupling creates the feeling of being seen and understood What small talk really does for your brain + why it's not so “small” after all The simple trick she uses to diffuse conflict and build connection in just 3 questions How to stop trying to “win” arguments and start learning from disagreement Why younger generations are craving connection more than ever (and what's getting in the way) The power of follow-up questions + how they make people feel heard What we're getting wrong about inclusion and how tiny micro-interactions create belonging Why performative listening is worse than not listening at all How to say “I don't know” in a way that builds trust and authority Why smart people often struggle in conversation and what to do about it Book Rec: Bleak House by Charles Dickens Follow Celeste Headlee here.

Cruz emphasizes the need to identify and prosecute the leaker. Allegations Against James Comey The former FBI Director is accused of implicitly calling for violence against Donald Trump via a social media post featuring seashells spelling “86 47” (interpreted as slang for “kill Trump”).

When ISIS was at its height, its ranks included several hundred Americans. They were often young men radicalized online by savvy marketing that promised free housing and the chance to meet a wife. When the Islamic State collapsed, some of them ended up in huge detention camps in Syria, and the U.S. has been trying to bring them home. NPR's Sacha Pfeiffer reports on one American family coping with the aftermath of the child they lost, and the children they found.What happened to the families of the Americans who joined ISIS? Not just the families they left behind in the U.S., but the ones they formed overseas?

You can probably guess. Today Stigall is joined by White House reporter for the Washington Times Jeff Murdock to discuss NPR's plans to take the Trump administration to court. Of course Harvard is taking their swings too as Trump threatens to take every dime of their federal grant money and give it over to trade schools instead. And now Vladamir Putin is mouthing off about Trump's frustrations over his continued aggression toward Ukraine. John Hayward from Breitbart.com joins the show to discuss the next steps for Putin as Europe and the U.S. begin to squeeze him and he becomes more desperate. China, too is economically desperate and do they have the patience to wait out Trump's tariffs politically? Plus, MAHA says bye-bye to COVID shot mandates and the Democrats (specifically Obama) are lost in the wilderness. Can they find their way back while 50% of the country thinks Trump has us on the right track? Rasmussen's head pollster Mark Mitchell gives his take. -For more info visit the official website: https://chrisstigall.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/chrisstigallshow/Twitter: https://twitter.com/ChrisStigallFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/chris.stigall/Listen on Spotify: https://tinyurl.com/StigallPodListen on Apple Podcasts: https://bit.ly/StigallShow -Help protect your wealth with real, physical gold and silver.
