On October 28, 2017 Maggie started a run from San Diego with the goal of running across the country - 99 days later, she hit the Atlantic Ocean. Through support of individual donors and a generous sponsor - National University, she raised $100,000 to support veterans, special needs athletes, and gold star families.  To learn more about Maggie's journey visit runfreerun.com. 

On October 22, 1990, President George H.W. Bush ordered the Secretary of" Defense to stop bombing Kaho'olawe. In this event, first-generation oral histories will weave together with rising generation perspectives. Together we reflect on the Aloha ʻĀina movement that mobilized thousands across the islands to stop the bombing of Kanaloa Kaho'olawe, sparked a renaissance of Hawaiian culture, language, arts and sciences, and continues to protect sacred Hawaiian lands.

Nothing that’s happened had to happen, or must happen again. That’s why historians aren’t prophets. Wars, booms, busts, inventions, breakthroughs – none of those things were inevitable. They happened, and they’ll keep happening in various forms. But specific events that shape history are always low-probability events. Their surprise is what causes them to leave a mark. And they were surprising specifically because they weren’t inevitable. A lot of things have to go right (or wrong) to move the needle in what is an otherwise random swarm of eight billion people on earth just trying to make it through the day. The problem when studying historical events is that you know how the story ends, and it’s impossible to un-remember what you know today when thinking about the past. It’s hard to imagine alternative paths of history when the actual path is already known. So things always look more inevitable than they were. Now let me tell you a story about the Great Depression. “After booms come busts,” is about as close to economic law as it gets. Study history, and the calamity that followed the booming 1920s, late 1990s, and early 2000s seems more than obvious. It seems inevitable. In October 1929 – the peak of history’s craziest stock bubble and eve of the Great Depression – economist Irving Fisher famously told an audience that “stock prices have reached what looks like a permanently high plateau.” We look at these comments today and laugh. How could someone so smart be so blind to something so inevitable? If you follow the rule that the crazier the boom, the harder the bust, the Great Depression must have been obvious. But Fisher was a smart guy. And he wasn’t alone. In an interview years ago I asked Robert Shiller, who won the Nobel Prize for his work on bubbles, about the inevitability of the Great Depression. He responded: Well, nobody forecasted that. Zero. Nobody. Now there were, of course, some guys who were saying the stock market is overpriced. But if you look at what they said, did that mean a depression is coming? A decade-long depression? No one said that. I have asked economic historians to give me the name of someone who predicted the depression, and it comes up zero. That stuck with me. Here we are, bloated with hindsight, knowing the crash after the roaring 1920s was obvious and inevitable. But for those who lived through it – people for whom the 1930s was a yet-to-be-discovered future – it was anything but. Two things can explain something that looks inevitable but wasn’t predicted by those who experienced it at the time: Either everyone in the past fell for a blinding delusion. Or everyone in the present is blinded by hindsight. We are crazy to think it’s all the former and none the latter. The article will attempt to show what people were thinking in the two years before the Great Depression. I’ll do so with newspaper clippings sourced from the Library of Congress chronicling what people actually said at the time. People who were just as smart as we are today and who wanted to avoid calamity as much as we do today – what were they thinking just before the economy collapsed into the Great Depression? People who were susceptible to the same behavioral quirks and humble laws of statistics as we are today – what did they think of their booming economy? How did they feel? What did they forecast? What worried them? What arguments were convincing to them? History is only interesting because nothing is inevitable. To better understand the stories we believe about our own future, we must first try to understand the views of people who didn’t yet know how their story would end. To understand the mood of the late 1920s you have to understand what the country went through a decade prior. One hundred sixteen thousand Americans died in World War I. Almost 700,000 died from the Spanish Flu outbreak in 1918. As the war and the flu came to an end in 1919, America became gripped by one of its worst recessions of modern times. Business activity fell 38% as the economy transitioned from wartime production to regular business. Unemployment hit 12%. The triple hit of war, flu, and depression took a toll on morale. The Wall Street Journal, December 18th, 1920. “The war clouds darken the sky no more, but clouds of business depression and stagnation obscure the sun.” The Wall Street Journal, April 7th, 1921. “The economic outlook was never so complex as it is now.” Los Angeles Times, November 11th 1921. It’s vital to point this pessimism out, because an important part of the late-1920s boom is understanding how desperate people were for good news after a decade of national misery. As the clouds began to part in the mid-1920s, Americans were so exhausted from what they’d been through that they were quick to grab onto any signs of progress they could find. Historian Frederick Lewis Allen wrote in the 1930s: Like an overworked businessman beginning his vacation, the country had had to go through a period of restlessness and irritability, but was finally learning how to relax and amuse itself once more. A sense of disillusionment remained; like the suddenly liberated vacationist, the country felt that it ought to be enjoying itself more than it was, and that life was futile and nothing mattered much. But in the meantime it might as well play – following the crowd, take up the new toys that were amusing the crowd. By 1924 there’s a distinct shift in tone among the business press. The Baltimore Sun, January 1, 1924: America had endured more trauma than at any point since the Civil War in a way that left it shaken, scared, and skeptical. By 1928 the final traces of that fear subsided, and its people were ready to embrace the peace and prosperity they wanted so badly. Once secured, they had no intention of letting go and going back to where they were. On June 18th, 1927 the Washington Post wrote a headline that explains so much of what would took place over the next two years: One thing that sticks out about the late 1920s is the idea that prosperity wasn’t only alive, but was immortal. Those promoting this belief were not subtle. The New York Herald, August 12th, 1928: The Los Angeles Times, December 23rd, 1928: The Boston Globe, January 2nd 1928: The Christian Science Monitor, February 27th, 1928: The notion that recessions had been eliminated is easy to laugh at. But you have to consider three things about the 1920s that made the idea seem feasible. One is that the four inventions that transformed the 1920s – electricity, cars, the airplane, and the radio, and – seemed indistinguishable from magic to most Americans. They were more transformational to the economy than anything since the steam engine, and changed the way the average American lived day to day than perhaps any other technology before or since. Technology that spreads so far, so fast, and deeply tends to create an era of optimism, and a belief that humans can solve any problem no matter how difficult it looks. When you go from a horse to an airplane in one generation, taming the business cycle doesn’t sound outrageous, does it? The New York Times, May 15th, 1929: A second factor that made the end of recessions seem feasible was the idea that World War I was the “war to end all wars.” The documentary How to Live Forever asks a group of centenarians what the happiest day of their life was. “Armistice Day” one woman says, referring to the 1918 agreement that ended World War I. “Why?” the producer asks. “Because we knew there would be no more wars ever again,” she says. When you believe the world has entered an era of permanent peace, assuming permanent prosperity will follow isn’t a big stretch. The Boston Globe, October 6th, 1928: A third argument for why prosperity would be permanent was the diversification of the global economy. Manufacturing was to the 1920s what technology was to the 2000s – a new industry with big wages and seemingly endless growth. But unlike technology today, manufacturing was incredibly labor-intensive, providing good jobs for tens of millions of Americans. A new and powerful industry can create a sense that past rules of boom and bust no longer apply, because the economy has a new quiver in its belt. The LA Times, January 1st, 1929: That same day, Chicago Daily Tribune: Beyond the permanence of prosperity, optimism over technology and its ability to pull rural farmers into the new middle class gave the impression that the gains had barely begun. The Christian Science Monitor, May 15th, 1929: The view was shared outside of the United States. The Los Angeles Times, December 12th, 1928: Around the world, people wanted a piece of what America had. The Hartford Courant, August 6th, 1928: The Hartford Courant, May 16th, 1929, described “conditions more or less permanent” and “fears for the future seem increasingly without foundation.” Little things Americans could hardly consider a few years before became reality. After huge budget deficits to finance the war, government coffers were flush. The New York Times, June 27th, 1927: Consumer debt, we know in hindsight, was a major cause of the crash and depression. But at the time growing credit was seen as a good, clean fuel. The Washington Post, February 19th, 1929: When we look back at the late 1920s we think about crazy stock market valuations and shoe-shine boys giving stock tips. But that’s not what people paid attention to at the time. The newspapers are filled with charts like these: rational, level-headed, and fuel for optimism. The Wall Street Journal, December 31, 1928: Stocks were surging. But it looked justified, backed by real business values. The Wall Street Journal, March 5th, 1929: As manufacturing became a driving force of employment, workers discovered bargaining power in a way they never considered before, working on farms. The Washington Post, November 25th, 1928: Growing middle-class wages seemed to open endless possibilities. The Washington Post, November 13th, 1928: The New York Times put several of these arguments together on May 12th, 1929: The New York Herald, January 2nd, 1929: It’s hard to overstate how transformation these developments were to average Americans, particularly in light of the previous decade’s trauma. The New York Herald Tribune, October 14th, 1929: In 1920 Americans were out of work and desperate for a paycheck. Nine years later, the top national goal was promoting leisure time. The New York Herald Tribune September 30th, 1929: By 1929 the stock market had increased five-fold in the previous decade. Average earnings were at an all-time high. Unemployment was near an all-time low. Frederick Lewis Allen wrote: “This was a new era. Prosperity was coming into full and perfect flower.” A popular saying of the day, Allen writes, was “Prosperity due for a decline? Why, man, we’ve scarcely started!” “ It was a party, and no one wanted to stop dancing. To me the most fascinating part of the 1920s boom is what it did to American culture. Wealth quickly became the center topic of not just commerce, but values, happiness, and even religion. It took on a new place of importance that didn’t exist in previous generations when it was both lower and more concentrated. The New York Herald Tribune, February 11th, 1929: The Baltimore Sun, July 21st, 1929: Ladies’ Home Journal, June 5th, 1929: The Washington Post, June 6th, 1928: The New York Amsterdam News, January 5th, 1928: The New York Times, August 19th, 1928: Across the world, heads turned and respect grew. Chicago Daily Tribune, January 28th, 1929: In just a few years prosperity had taken on a new role in America – not something to dream about, but something that was secured today, guaranteed tomorrow, and sat at the center of what made Americans American. On September 10th, 1929, The Wall Street Journal wrote: Three weeks later, Irving Fisher made this famous proclamation: On October 1st, 1929, the Pittsburgh Courier sounded a faint alarm, warning that prosperity was a mental state subject to change: No one, though, could fathom what was in store next. The stock market lost a third of its value in the last few days of October, 1929. The immediate response was shock, but not dread. On October 26th The New York Times published an article titled, “‘All Well’ is View of Business Chiefs.” It quotes a dozen prominent businessmen: Arthur W. Loasby, president of the Equitable Trust Company: “There will be no repetition of the break of yesterday. The market fell of its own weight without regard to fundamental business conditions, which are sound. I have no fear of another comparable decline.” J.L. Julian, partner of the New York Stock Exchange firm of Fenner & Beane: “The worst is over. The selling yesterday was panicky brought on by hysteria. General conditions are good. Our inquires assure us that business throughout the country is sound.” M.C. Brush, president of the American International Corporation: “I do not look for a recurrence of Thursday and believe that the very best stocks can be bought at approximate present prices.” R.B. White, president of the Central Railroad of New Jersey: “There is nothing alarming in the situation as regards business. Business will continue the way it had. Plans in the railroad for the future have in no way been changed.” Three days later the market crashed again. It would not recover its losses until 1954. The first response to the crash was to view it as a temporary blip, and permanent prosperity would soon resume. The New York Times, October 30th, 1929: The Wall Street Journal, October 29th, 1929: The Boston Daily Globe, October 30th, 1929: The New York Times, October 30th, 1929: Barron’s, November 30th, 1929: Some saw the crash as a blessing, and an opportunity to simplify life that evolved so quickly in the previous five years. The New York Times, November 13th, 1929: The Christian Science Monitor, November 25th, 1929: Chicago Daily Tribune, November 26th, 1929: On New Year’s Eve 1929, as a year that began so bright came to such a shocking end, the Wall Street Journal made a friendly reminder: Keep investing, and you’ll undoubtedly have more money a year from now: Over the next three years the Great Depression put 12 million Americans out of work. The stock market fell 89%, reverting to levels last seen 36 years prior. GDP fell 27%. Prices fell 10% per year. Nine thousand banks failed, erasing $150 billion in American checking and savings accounts. Births declined 17%. Divorce rose by a third. Suicides rose by half. The depression gave rise to Adolf Hitler in Germany, setting the course for a world war that would go on to impact nearly every aspect of life we know today. It was, without question, one of the most consequential events of modern history. And when we look back at what people were thinking before it began, the question remains: Did they know? Did they have any clue? Were they blind to the inevitable? Or did they just suffer a terrible fate that wasn’t inevitable? There has never been a period in history where the majority of people didn’t look dumb in hindsight. People are good at analyzing and predicting things they know and can see. But they cannot think about or prepare for events they can’t fathom. These out-of-the-blue events go on to be the most consequential events of history, so when we look back it’s hard to understand why few people cared or prepared. The phrase “hindsight is 20/20” doesn’t seem right, because 20/20 implies everything coming into a clear view. In reality, hindsight makes most people look dumber than they actually were. Whether something is inevitable only matters if people know it’s inevitable. Knowing a decline is inevitable lets you prepare for it before it happens, and contextualize it when it does. The only important part of this story, I hope I have convinced you, is that no one saw the Great Depression as inevitable before it happened. I don’t think you can call the people of the late 1920s oblivious without answering the question, “Oblivious to what?” A future no one predicted? Consequences no one envisioned? Ignoring advice that no one gave? At the end of World War II it was assumed by most that, stripped of wartime spending, the economy would slip back into the depths of depression that preceded the war. We know today that it did not – it went on to prosper like never before. So were people oblivious in 1945? After the stock market crash of 1987, one investor recently recalled, “I remember an uneasy feeling as pundits predicted the start of the next Great Depression and the end of prosperity, as we knew it.” Instead, the 1990s were the most prosperous decade in history. Were we oblivious in 1987, too? The fact that we avoided depression in 1945, 1987 – and 2009 – might be the best evidence that the actual depression of the 1930s wasn’t inevitable. You can say, “Well, in 1945 the banking system didn’t collapse, and the 1990s were lucky because of the internet,” and so on. But no one in 1945 or 1990 knew those things, just as no one in 1929 knew their future. It’s not hard to imagine a world where policy responses were a little different, a presidential election tipped a different way, a second world war began a decade before it did, and the economic story of the 1930s playing out differently than it did. But we never get to hear the stories of what could have been or almost was. We only think something is inevitable if it’s obvious. And things only look obvious when everyone’s talking about them and predicting them. When you look back at what people said in the late 1920s – their confidence, their clarity, their logic – you can’t help but wonder what we are confident in today that will look foolish in the future. What those things might be, I don’t know. It wasn’t obvious in the 1920s. It won’t be obvious in the 2020s. That’s what makes history interesting – nothing’s inevitable. http://www.collaborativefund.com/blog/history-is-only-interesting-because-nothing-is-inevitable/ gave rise togo on to impact nearly every aspect of lifeprepare for events they can’t fathomit was assumed by most

On October 29, 2020, the Penn and Temple Student Chapters of the Federalist Society hosted former officemates and leading scholars of presidential power John Yoo and Saikrishna Prakash for a debate on the true extent of presidential power. In his new book, "Defender in Chief," John Yoo argues that Trump, despite his populism, is more often the defender rather than the opponent of the original Constitution. In "The Living Presidency," however, Sai Prakash counters that Trump, like many modern presidents, has violated the Constitution’s grant of executive power. The debate was moderated by Temple Law's Professor Craig Green.Featuring:Prof. John C. Yoo, UC Berkeley School of LawProf. Saikrishna B.

If there ever was a time to discuss faith and politics by cheerful hearts with those close to you during the holidays, it’s today! In what is now rare political form, both houses of congress once agreed on something historic and of good nature! What was it?  They requested the President to implore the nation to separate a special day of the year to give thanks to God for His many blessings - in particular the gift of being a sovereign and free nation with a constitutional government elected by and for its citizens.On October 3rd, 1789, (just thirteen years after the Declaration of Independence was written and one year after the Constitution was ratified) President George Washington wrote the short 469 word Proclamation and instituted the holiday that we now call Thanksgiving. A few things must be noted and indeed cannot be overlooked.The Proclamation was all about the greatness of God, asking for forgiveness, and bestowing our many blessings to others.Most undeniably, God is the center of the Proclamation. He was described by Washington as the “Almighty God”, “great and glorious Being”, “beneficent Author”, and the “great Lord and Ruler of Nations”.Secondly, Washington gives witness to the goodness of God. He was “the beneficent Author of all the good that was, that is, or that will be.” Thanksgiving was then to be humbly made to God, not just for the freedom to gorge ourselves on fattened bites of tryptophan-ed turkey, and watch football, but for His “many signal favors”, “manifold mercies, and the favorable interpositions of his Providence” that led the United States “an opportunity peaceably to establish a form of government for [our] safety and happiness.” We must remember that the pleasure we have from feasting with friends and family on Thanksgiving is only possible from a government that pursues its people’s happiness and safety.  Odd as it may seem, one way to celebrate our freedom and happiness is to confess sin. Washington also asked us as a nation to beseech God “to pardon our national and other transgressions.” Much can be said about this, but it should be sufficient to wonder how good it would be to have a federal government acknowledge their fallen state by imploring God to forgive both their personal and national transgressions.  Lastly, Washington wanted the many blessings that the United States enjoyed like virtue, faith and science to be given to others. Today, in a time where science and religion are falsely pitted against each other, Washington reminds us that there is no gulf between them. He ends the Proclamation hoping “our national government [would be] a blessing to all the people, by constantly being a Government of wise, just, and constitutional laws, discreetly and faithfully executed and obeyed--to protect and guide all Sovereigns and Nations (especially such as have shewn kindness unto us) and to bless them with good government, peace, and concord -To promote the knowledge and practice of true religion and virtue, and the encrease of science among them and us--and generally to grant unto all Mankind such a degree of temporal prosperity as he alone knows to be best.”So, even though our senses might be slightly dulled from over consumption this Thanksgiving, may we not forget to raise a glass to give true thanks to God for our nation, our prosperity and the many freedoms we share. May we consider our faults as individuals and as a country and seek pardon from God all while seeking to be a blessing to both neighbors and strangers. ______________________ By the President of the United States of America, a Proclamation.Whereas it is the duty of all Nations to acknowledge the providence of Almighty God, to obey his will, to be grateful for his benefits, and humbly to implore his protection and favor-- and whereas both Houses of Congress have by their joint Committee requested me to recommend to the People of the United States a day of public thanksgiving and prayer to be observed by acknowledging with grateful hearts the many signal favors of Almighty God especially by affording them an opportunity peaceably to establish a form of government for their safety and happiness.Now therefore I do recommend and assign Thursday the 26th day of November next to be devoted by the People of these States to the service of that great and glorious Being, who is the beneficent Author of all the good that was, that is, or that will be-- That we may then all unite in rendering unto him our sincere and humble thanks--for his kind care and protection of the People of this Country previous to their becoming a Nation--for the signal and manifold mercies, and the favorable interpositions of his Providence which we experienced in the course and conclusion of the late war--for the great degree of tranquility, union, and plenty, which we have since enjoyed--for the peaceable and rational manner, in which we have been enabled to establish constitutions of government for our safety and happiness, and particularly the national One now lately instituted--for the civil and religious liberty with which we are blessed; and the means we have of acquiring and diffusing useful knowledge; and in general for all the great and various favors which he hath been pleased to confer upon us.and also that we may then unite in most humbly offering our prayers and supplications to the great Lord and Ruler of Nations and beseech him to pardon our national and other transgressions-- to enable us all, whether in public or private stations, to perform our several and relative duties properly and punctually--to render our national government a blessing to all the people, by constantly being a Government of wise, just, and constitutional laws, discreetly and faithfully executed and obeyed--to protect and guide all Sovereigns and Nations (especially such as have shewn kindness unto us) and to bless them with good government, peace, and concord--To promote the knowledge and practice of true religion and virtue, and the encrease of science among them and us--and generally to grant unto all Mankind such a degree of temporal prosperity as he alone knows to be best.Given under my hand at the City of New York the third day of October in the year of our Lord 1789.Go: Washingtonhttps://www.mountvernon.org/education/primary-sources-2/article/thanksgiving-proclamation-of-1789/

Imagine spending years behind bars — or even facing the death penalty — for a crime you didn’t commit. Now go one step further and imagine that the evidence that put you there is your own words.False confessions are more common than most might imagine. Whether through psychological persuasion, prolonged isolation, or even outright lying, threats or promises, coercive interrogation techniques have played a decisive role in sending innocent people — including minors and intellectually-impaired persons — to prison. On October 5, 2020, Season Two of the podcast Wrongful Conviction: False Confessions launches, examining this true crime phenomenon through the eyes of two of the globe’s leading experts on interrogations. Hosts Laura Nirider and Steve Drizin — renowned attorneys, co-directors of Northwestern University’s Center on Wrongful Convictions, and recognized figures from the hit Netflix docuseries Making a Murderer — have dedicated their lives to understanding and solving the problem of false confessions.Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/houseofmysteryradio.

Prakash for an online discussion on the extent of executive power.In his new book, "Defender in Chief," Yoo argues that President Trump – despite his populism – has become more often the defender rather than the opponent of the original Constitution. In "The Living Presidency," Prakash counters that Trump, like many modern presidents, has violated the Constitution's grant of executive power.Featuring:- Saikrishna B.

Tune in to hear where Destiny has been and why there was a sudden break in the podcast. The Prayerpist ™ specializes in conducting one on one prayer sessions held in a therapy like atmosphere where the strong friend, leader or kingdom entrepreneur can gain clarity on how to identify obstacles, live in purpose and be confident operating in their own lane. Destiny Thomas is an Author, Podcaster, Infertility Advocate (PCOS and Endometriosis), Prayer and Discernment Coach (The Prayerpist) and Motivational Speaker. Destiny was diagnosed with Endometriosis and P.C.O.S. and was told by her doctor that she would never experience the gift of birthing a child. So she neglected finishing her education, resented aspects of her faith, and lost all concentration for maintaining financial independence. For years, Destiny filled the void of being a mother with uncontrolled credit card spending, fatty foods, and senseless vacations. God turned everything around for her on February 8, 2015 with the birth of her son. Through that journey she realized the importance in truly trusting in God. She was put to the test of trusting God when she began the journey of "REALIZING DESTINY". On October 21, 2017, God instructed her to leave her corporate job after 10 years of employment without a plan A or B, she did it and allowed God to unravel what it is he put her on this earth to do. Since leaving corporate, She has obediently been using her God given talents to be the consistent reminder to women and men of how good God is. Her message is that “before we were placed in our mother's womb God created a blueprint for us to fulfill here on earth. He didn't only create the blueprint but he also has the step by step guide of how we can achieve it, if we are diligent at seeking his face daily, asking him for guidance, and being still long enough to listen.” Through Realizing Destiny God led her to become a Prayer and Discernment Coach known as “The Prayerpist”, conducting One on One and group prayer sessions very similar to therapy/life coach sessions helping people tap into their true praying power, allowing them to live out the plan and purpose God has for their lives and businesses; host of a prayer call publicly on social media 5 days a week reaching people from all over the world; the host of her very own podcast (Realizing Destiny); complete her very first non fiction book; and motivate, inspire and encourage thousands of women that are still battling this emotional rollercoaster known as infertility.

Our guest is chef and author Yotam Ottolenghi, whose best-selling cookbooks have earned him a cult following among home chefs around the world.  Born in Israel, Ottolenghi now lives in London where he operates six restaurants and delis.  On October 15, 2020, Ottolenghi spoke to Isabel Duffy from his test kitchen in London.  The two discussed his latest book, “Ottolenghi Flavor”, which includes more than 100 plant-based recipes, and how the chef is feeding his own family during the pandemic.

On October 31st, we were deeply saddened to hear of the passing of the legendary actor Sean Connery. He was someone that was held in high esteem by all of us in the cave. We decided to do a special show in his honor so we did a bit of a search for some less popular starring vehicles to look at for the podcast. We start off with 1966's "A Fine Madness", from director Irvin Kershner, which intends to be a comedy but unfortunately fell VERY flat for us. It DOES have a great supporting cast, and a handful of interesting moments, but overall was a relic from a different time, and not in the best way. We follow that up with the very impressive "The Offence" from 1973. Directed by another legend, Sydney Lumet, it is VERY challenging to watch. It does allow Connery to really shine as an actor, and reminded us all just how effective he could be. Please let us know your favorite Connery performance, and also what you'd like to see on future shows but getting it touch with us.  Please send emails to flickersfrom@yahoo.com or flickersfrom@gmail.com.  You can also reach us on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter.

On October 7, a huge crowd of people gathered outside a court building in Athens. They were waiting to hear the verdict in the trial of 68 members of the far-right organization Golden Dawn. The hearing was the biggest trial of fascists since the Nazi trials at Nuremberg after WWII. The crowd in Athens erupted with joy when news emerged that the judges had ruled that Golden Dawn was a criminal gang, not a legitimate political party. We speak with Patrick Strickland, an author, journalist and editor who divides his time between Athens and Texas.

On October 30, 2020, Izmir, Turkey was hit by a 7.0 earthquake. My family experienced the earthquake in our apartment on the 15th floor. It was a terrifying experience, but there is a truly touching part of the story. Listen in while I explain the events of the day and how I'm doing mentally with it all. 

On October 28th, 2020, my wife Mallory birthed our newborn son, Justice Michael Justice. Like with our first son, Noble, Mallory made the choice to do an all natural home birth. We also utilized the Bradley Method of natural childbirth, which places the partner (myself) in the role of coach.Many people have asked us to share more about our birth story, so we thought it would be fun to record it in the form of a podcast episode. We recount the 9 months of preparation leading up the Justice's birth, the highlights of the labor and birth, the background behind his name, and other interesting tidbits related to child birth. We hope you find it insightful, inspiring, and elevated!For more information on the Bradley Method of Natural Childbirth:http://www.bradleybirth.com/

Our latest episode of ‘Heart of a Heartless World’ is a recording of a webinar DSA’s NYC chapter hosted with faith leaders on how American apocalyptic thinking gets in the way building a better future, how to decolonize the apocalypse, and the potential for societal transformation through a just transition towards ecosocialism.

It still doesn’t feel real, TBH. On October 31, I ran myself a virtual marathon, and managed to snag myself a personal best time of 3:23:56. In today’s #HURDLEMOMENT episode, I’m giving the full recap — from the preparations before the big day and how I fueled to the biggest mistakes I made and how I felt when I … didn’t cross any actual finish line. Plus, how this big milestone felt different from last year’s (previous) personal best marathon in Chicago. Warning: tears, a few expletives, and a bunch of feels ahead.

On October 13, 1932, Guy A. Thompson, President of the American Bar Association, delivered an address in Washington, D.C., on the occasion of the laying of the cornerstone for the new Supreme Court Building. The address was recorded on an acetate disc, which was donated to the Supreme Court by Thompson's grandson. The recording begins with a reporter setting the scene, followed by Thompson's address. The acetate disc is currently in the collection of the Supreme Court of the United States. Many thanks to Professor Zvi S. Rosen of SIU Law for bringing this recording to my attention, and to Matthew Hofstedt and Fred Schilling of the Supreme Court of the United States for making the recording available to me.

Hello Runners, Well runners, we are in November and Thanksgiving is upon us. This year will be much different since there will be no in-person Turkey Trot running races. Virtual, yes, but it's not the same. I always look forward to the Turkey Trot race each year, socializing after and then later enjoying a nice Thanksgiving meal. Yes it will be much different this year. The election is finally over and what a week it was. I waited to release this episode while the events of last week all passed. No matter who your candidate may have been, I hope that now we can all move forward together in a positive way. Vince Varallo is my guest this episode. In December of 2016 Vince, who trains mostly alone, posted on the Boston Marathon Facebook page looking for others to virtually train with for Boston and to get tips, suggestions and share experiences. He then started https://www.facebook.com/groups/BostonMarathonTraining (Boston Buddies Run Club Facebook Page) with four people, and today there are 11,400+ members that actively participate. You do not need to run Boston to be a part of the https://bostonbuddiesrunclub.com/ (Boston Buddies Run Club). On October 21st, an event that Vince organized, https://greatamericanrelay.com/ (The Great American Relay), finished at the Santa Monica Pier in California. It started in Boston on September 15th. The relay ran through 15 states with 379 stages each ranging from 5-22 mile, most averaging 10. The event was a huge success as you can see on the very interactive Facebook page. Vince and his group organized some other creative and fun virtual challenges. You will enjoy this episode. I'd also like to congratulate https://www.cnn.com/2020/11/09/health/first-person-with-down-syndrome-completes-ironman-scn-trnd/index.html (Chris Nikic) who made history last Saturday by being the first person with Down syndrome to complete the Panama City Beach https://www.ironman.com/im-florida (Ironman).  What an accomplishment and what a fine young man. Chris...you are a Ironman. And a shout out to my friend Coach Ashley McKenney who also finished the Ironman last Saturday. Be well and be safe runners. Wear your mask in public. Please be kind and courteous to others and share our love of the sport of running running! And as Vince Varallo says, "Running isn't Cancelled!"

On October 21st, 1993, Larry and John Gassman of SPERDVAC interviewed radio producer/director Himan Brown and actor Ralph Bell at Brown's home in New York city. During the course of the interview Himan was asked about the Red Scare, which damaged his career in the 1950s.

This week, we’re broadcasting a conversation with Alicia Garza and Megan Rapinoe, recorded four days before the presidential election.  Alicia Garza is an activist and writer.  In 2013, she posted a Facebook response to the murder of Trayvon Martin in which she used the hashtag “Black Lives Matter”, and it sparked a major social movement.  Garza has now written a book, “The Purpose of Power: How We Come Together When We Fall Apart”.   Megan Rapinoe is a soccer player, two-time World Cup champion and co-captain of the US Women’s National Team.  She’s also an outspoken advocate for social justice and the issue of equal pay for female athletes. On October 28, 2020, Alicia Garza and Megan Rapinoe spoke about activism, organizing, and tactics for achieving structural change.

On October 3rd, Pope Francis released his third encyclical titled “Fratelli Tutti,” subtitled “On fraternity and social friendship.” This document focuses on the social and economic problems of today’s society; and proposes an ideal world of fraternity in which all countries can be part of a "larger human family.” To shine some much needed light on this document and its creator, we asked noted Catholic Star Herald columnist and professor at Loyola University Chicago’s Institute of Pastoral Studies, Michael Canaris, Ph.D., to help us better understand the encyclical. Our hosts Mary McCusker and Mike Walsh also invited our resident expert in missionary discipleship, Donna Ottaviano-Britt, onto the show to discuss how this global document has relevance to us here in New Jersey. It’s a truly enlightening conversation that helps us to understand the message and the author.

What Will The Pandemic Look Like During The Winter? It’s been almost a year since officials in China announced the spread of a mysterious pneumonia, and identified the first COVID-19 patients. On January 21, the first U.S. COVID-19 case was confirmed in Washington State. And new record highs for cases were set this week.  Since March, just about every country in the world has tried to get a handle on the pandemic using different interventions. Infectious disease expert Michael Osterholm and physician Abraar Karan discuss what pandemic planning might look like heading into the winter and during the second year of the virus.  Key Congressional Races That Could Affect Future Climate Change Legislation In addition to the presidential race, there were hundreds of local congressional elections that may be important in determining what type of climate change legislation will be passed in the next few years. Reporter Scott Waldman from E&E News/Climatewire talks about some of these races in areas affected by climate change. Not So Fast, Murder Hornets This past spring, you might have seen many headlines about murder hornets making it to the U.S. This is the sensationalist nickname for the Asian Giant Hornet, a large insect native to East and South Asia that preys on honey bee colonies.  Since late 2019, there have been several sightings of these hornets in Washington state. Just last month, the first Asian Giant Hornet nest was discovered in the U.S., in Blaine, Washington, which is on the U.S. and Canada border. On October 24th, that nest was successfully eliminated by a group of scientists from the Washington State Department of Agriculture (WSDA) and the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA).  Joining Ira to talk about why it was so important to destroy this nest are two entomologists who worked closely on this effort: Chris Looney, with the WSDA in Olympia, and Jackie Serrano with the USDA in Wapato, Washington.

On October 20, 2020, the Department of Justice (DOJ) filed its much-anticipated lawsuit against Google. The case is the most high-profile antitrust challenge since the Microsoft case more than 20 years ago. The Justice Department has alleged that Google monopolized the search and search advertising markets, inhibiting rivals such as Bing, DuckDuckGo, and Yahoo from succeeding and thereby ultimately harming competition and consumers. This distinguished panel debated the merits of the DOJ's antitrust claims, discussed the potential parallels to the Microsoft action, and opined on the government's likelihood of success at trial.Featuring:- Geoffrey A.

On October 6, 2020, the Supreme Court heard oral arguments for Rutledge v. Pharmaceutical Care Management Association. The issue in this case is whether states have the right to regulate pharmacy benefit managers, or PBM’s. Leslie Rutledge, Arkansas’s Attorney General, has petitioned the court to overturn the United States Court of Appeals for the Eighth District’s prior decision to maintain Arkansas’ statute regulating PBMs’ drug reimbursement rates. Rutledge argues the statute is preempted by the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. Max Schulman joins us to discuss this case’s oral arguments. Schulman is an associate in the Washington, D.C. office of Gibson, Dunn & Crutcher.

On October 28, 2020 the Federalist Society's Akron Student Chapter hosted George Horvath and Adam Mossoff for a discussion of how patents can affect medical innovation. Specifically, the two discussed how patents have already come into play in the response to COVID-19, and how they will continue to do so as the fight against the pandemic evolves.Featuring:- George Horvath, Assistant Professor of Law, University of Akron School of Law- Adam Mossoff, Professor of Law, Antonin Scalia Law School, George Mason University- [Moderator] Camilla Hrdy, Associate Professor of Law, University of Akron School of LawVisit our website – www.RegProject.org – to learn more, view all of our content, and connect with us on social media.

We know that children can catch the SarsCov2 virus, even though adverse side effects are incredibly rare. But what isn't clear is how likely they are to transmit the virus? If you’re a parent, are you in danger of catching the virus, maybe brought home from school by your child? A large study, using the anonymised health experiences of around 12 million adults registered with GPs in England, has just been published that explores that question. Dr Laurie Tomlinson, of London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine, explains the findings. On October 30th a magnitude 7 earthquake under the Aegean Sea created devastation when it struck Turkish city of Izmir. Marnie discusses the nature of the earthquake and why this area is so seismically active with Dr Laura Gregory, a geologist at Leeds University who has studied the rocks in the region. Professor Tiziana Rossetto, an expert in earthquake engineering at UCL, talks about a recent survey and intervention she carried out with the residents of Izmir to help them prepare for earthquakes. In the last of our interviews with the authors shortlisted for the Royal Society Insight Investment Science Book Prize 2020 Adam Rutherford meets the winner, Dr Camilla Pang. At the age of eight she was diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder. Struggling to understand the world around her, she went in search of a blueprint or a manual that would help her navigate the curious world of human social customs. Nearly two decades on, Camilla has produced one herself, entitled: Explaining Humans: What Science Can Teach Us about Life, Love and Relationships. Presenter: Marnie Chesterton Editor: Deborah Cohen

On October 25, an overwhelming majority of Chileans voted to throw out their constitution, written during Augusto Pinochet’s brutal dictatorship. It started as a student protest at a high school and grew into a national movement. Now, the streets of Santiago are filled with jubilant celebration, music and fireworks. But soon, the hard work of writing the new charter will begin. Daniel Alarcón discusses his reporting from Chile with Ray Suarez.  Featuring: Daniel Alarcón, contributing writer at The New Yorker and Executive Producer of Radio Ambulante.  Ray Suarez, co-host of WorldAffairs & Washington reporter for Euronews Reading Material:  Chile at the Barricades, by Daniel Alarcón, The New Yorker If you appreciate this episode and want to support the work we do, please consider making a donation to World Affairs.

On October 24th, 2020, my YouTube channel Hardcore Crypto was mistakenly terminated by YouTube for violating community guidelines. The channel is the largest Cryptocurrency channel in Africa and loved by many. One would hope that YouTube would help content creators in this kind of situation but it turns out that they don't care. I've appealed and reached out on Twitter and got no help. Imagine years of work wiped out in a whim for no reason. Just like that. The sad part is that YouTube will never assign a human being to attend to your appeals or complaints, they force you to deal with robots. The mistake I made was overleveraging myself by trusting a third party to host my content. This is a major flaw when using media as leverage online. In this episode, I use this story as an example to discuss the concept of leverage online. Enjoy!

Reader Team Meetup - October 2020 Welcome to a bonus episode of FBI Retired Case File Review. This a recording of my live Zoom meetup with members of my FBI true crime - crime fiction Reader Team. On October 29, I had a blast hanging out with Reader Team members and discussing how the FBI is portrayed in books, TV, and movies. Also in attendance were several retired and former agents who have been or will soon be guests on FBI Retired Case File Review. With their assistance, I answered lots of questions about FBI policies and procedures for those members writing stories with FBI characters. It was a fun time with lively conversations about whether writers have a responsibility to get the FBI right in their stories and what limits to creative compromises, if any, should be made. Join my Reader Team to get the FBI Reading Resource - Books about the FBI, written by FBI agents, the 20 clichés about the FBI Reality Checklist, and keep up to date on the FBI in books, TV, and movies via my monthly email. Join here.   Jerri Williams, a retired FBI agent, author and podcaster, attempts to relive her glory days by writing and blogging about the FBI and hosting FBI Retired Case File Review, a true crime/history podcast. Visit her website to check out her books, available as audiobooks, ebooks and paperbacks wherever books are sold. 

Speaking of elections, let's talk about Bolivia. On October 18th, voters handed Luis Arce and the Movement for Socialism a historic majority. In doing so, they defeated a right-wing government that had held power since a coup last year forced President Evo Morales out of the country. Now, Evo's party is back, and they have a bigger mandate than ever. How did this victory come about, especially amidst massacres, mass arrests and vigilante violence against activists and lawmakers alike? Bolivian-based human rights lawyer Thomas Becker joins the show to tell the story.

On October 14-15, the Federalist Society's Kentucky lawyers chapters hosted their annual conference via online webinars. The topic of the second panel was "COVID-19 and Constitutional Law."The response to the COVID-19 pandemic has largely been driven by each state’s governor. Governors across the country—including in Kentucky—have issued a series of executive orders in the name of public health to combat the spread of the virus. These executive orders, however, often conflict with ordinary application of both separation of powers and ordinary constitutional liberties, including when and where individuals may exercise their First Amendment rights to worship and assemble, along with substantial economic pressures. Several of these orders have been challenged in state and federal courts. This panel explores the scope of a governor’s unilateral authority in responding to public health emergencies, and how those powers interact with the state and federal constitutions.Featuring:Allison Joy Ball, State Treasurer, KentuckyVictor B.

On October 14-15, the Federalist Society's Kentucky lawyers chapters hosted their annual conference via online webinars. The first panel of the conference covered "Issues in Election Law and Election Integrity."During the 2020 session of the General Assembly, the state’s legislature enacted measures designed to promote election integrity, culminating in SB 2—the state’s voter ID law. That law is currently being litigated, but is otherwise poised to be in effect for the November 2020 general election. Following the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic, Kentucky shifted the date of its primary election and conducted the primary almost entirely by absentee ballot. This panel will address each of these issues along with expectations for the general election in November, both in terms of election procedures and election law issues likely to emerge.Featuring:Jessica Furst Johnson, Partner, Holtzman Vogel Josefiak Torchinsky PLLCMichael Adams, Secretary of State, KentuckyDr. Rachel Kleinfeld, Senior Fellow, Democracy, Conflict, and Governance Program, Carnegie Endowment for International PeaceModerator: Prof. Brian Frye, Professor, UK College of LawIntroduction: Thomas Travis, President, Central Kentucky Lawyers Chapter*******As always, the Federalist Society takes no position on particular legal or public policy issues; all expressions of opinion are those of the speakers.
