In the wake of the Metropolitan Police's announcement that it's Special Enquiry Team has expanded its criminal investigation into donations made to Reform UK by Fiona Cottrell, the mother of “Posh” George, to include suspected breaches of foreign funding laws based on the Verbatim/C4 undercover sting operation, Ken Macdonald KC and Tim Owen KC focus on the rise and fall of Dr James Orr, the former Reform UK Head of Policy - or “contractor” as he was contemptuously described by Nigel Farage soon after Orr was indefinitely suspended from the Party.  Just how clever is the Associate Professor of Philosophy of Religion in the Cambridge Faculty of Divinity and the man known as “Farage's Brain”?  And is he as weird as High Anglican Tory AN Wilson has claimed? Ken and Tim then discuss the potential for the £72m donations to Reform UK made by Thailand based Christopher Harborne and crypto currency businessman Ben Delo to be reversed when the retrospective provisions of the Representation of the People Bill 2026 come into force.  Can we anticipate the delicious prospect of Reform relying on the European Convention on Human Rights to argue that UK law is incompatible with the right to peaceful enjoyment of property? The duo turn next to debate the defeat of the second attempt to legislate for some form of Assisted Dying legislation in the UK and reflect on the shameful, anti-democratic, filibustering tactics deployed by 7 Peers which meant that the June 2025 House of Commons' vote in favour of the Leadbeater Bill was frustrated. They go on to express astonishment and concern at the apparently never ending Undercover Policing Inquiry which is due to lose its second Inquiry Chair, Sir John Mitting, next year some 12 years after it began. After costing £137m, is it time to pull the plug? And finally Ken and Tim reflect on the new legal risk guidance issued by Attorney General Ellie Reeves KC which reverses the previous guidance issued by Lord Hermer KC (https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/guidance-attorney-generals-guidance-on-legal-risk--2). Does it undermine the rule of law and what political signal does it send? -- Covering the critical intersections of politics and law in the UK with expert commentary on high-profile legal cases, political controversies, prisons and sentencing, human rights law, current political events and the shifting landscape of justice and democracy. With in-depth discussions and influential guests, Double Jeopardy is the podcast that uncovers the forces shaping Britain's legal and political future.  What happens when politics and law collide? How do politics shape the law - and when does the law push back? What happens when judicial independence is tested, human rights come under attack, or freedom of expression is challenged?

Is the Verbatim Investigations/C4 film which shows senior (now ex) Reform UK officials apparently engaged in procuring illegal foreign donations to the Party a “hoax”, as Nigel Farage and Robert Jenrick have claimed, or a brilliant example of investigative journalism in the public interest (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aXut3s90rUI)? And did the undercover operation breach journalistic ethics by crossing the line into “entrapment”, or did the evidence captured on film simply reveal the willingness of Reform's former Head of Policy, James Orr, and senior aide to Farage, Dan Jukes, to operate an “off the books” illegal donation scheme? What specific criminal offences under UK law are apparent from the broadcast footage and what defences might be run in he event of criminal charges? And is major Reform UK donor Aaron Banks right to say that the public “don't give a rat's arse” about the behaviour of Orr, Jukes and Farage as revealed by Verbatim's investigation? To debate the fascinating issues generated by the C4/Verbatim sting operation on Double Jeopardy, Tim Owen KC is joined by electoral and media law expert Gavin Millar KC who acted as legal advisor to Verbatim during the year-long undercover operation. In his first public interview since the documentary was published, Gavin explains the ethical principles which guide this kind of investigation, the criminal offences set out in the Political Parties, Elections and Referendums Act 2000 and the difference between the role of a journalist as opposed to that of the police when investigating potential wrongdoing by politicians. The duo discuss the weaknesses in current electoral law and the limited powers of the Electoral Commission to tackle dodgy financial dealings by political parties. -- Covering the critical intersections of politics and law in the UK with expert commentary on high-profile legal cases, political controversies, prisons and sentencing, human rights law, current political events and the shifting landscape of justice and democracy.

There are grey clouds over day two of Reform UK's conference after a Channel 4 investigation caused heads to roll. The party announced this morning that Dan Jukes, Nigel Farage's right-hand man, and James Orr, Reform's head of strategy, have stood down and left the conference. ‘They have left the building and they won't be coming back,' chairman Lee Anderson said.Footage broadcast by Channel 4 on Thursday night showed Jukes suggesting a way to get around electoral law in order to secure a foreign donation. A reporter posed as a UK-based son of an American benefactor, who was to give money to Reform via his 'son' after being wooed by both Orr and Jukes. Electoral law sets out that to be a permissible donor to a UK political party you must be a UK registered voter, or a company registered in the UK. So how damaging is this for Reform – and what happens next?Oscar Edmondson speaks to James Heale and Noa Hoffman.Produced by Oscar Edmondson.Become a Spectator subscriber today to access this podcast without adverts.

When tourists found an abandoned bicycle on a remote track in Australia's Great Sandy Desert, it triggered one of the strangest missing person searches in outback history — police, aircraft, and Aboriginal trackers combing the Kimberley for a man who had vanished without telling anyone where he was going. Twelve days in, the search was called off and his family was told he was almost certainly dead, so they hired a private American wilderness rescue team led by a man who insisted on being called Gunslinger. What none of them knew was that he had walked into the desert deliberately, on a spiritual quest, and had no idea anyone was searching for him at all. Forty-three days of starvation, dehydration and roughly 250 miles on foot later, a helicopter found him alive — and set off a fight that reached the Premier of Western Australia, while the man who led the rescue turned out to have invented his entire past. Twenty-five years on, one of the trackers who searched for him asked him for a single word, and what he said instead is still an uncomfortable part of this story.Timestamps: 00:00 Podcast Intro Setup00:30 Mud Water In The Desert02:22 Abandoned Bike Mystery03:18 No One Knew The Plan06:36 Spiritual Quest Revealed07:34 Search Begins With Trackers09:27 Media Frenzy And Survival Math10:28 Search Called Off Parents React11:57 Gunslinger Arrives Private Team15:06 Fresh Tracks And Desert Ordeal18:52 Help Sign And Found Alive21:49 News Crew Rescue Controversy25:10 Hospital Risks Refeeding27:22 Costs Rumors And Apology30:04 Gunslinger Exposed As Fraud33:27 The Tracker Story And Apology35:26 Final Reflections And OutroREFERENCESParke, Erin. Expanse: Nowhere Man.

Sacramento State is officially in the MAC - and now it's time to play some football! On this episode of Call to MACtion, Sacramento State Director of Athletics Mark Orr joins the show ahead of the Hornets' historic first game as a member of the Mid-American Conference against Eastern Michigan. Orr takes us inside Sacramento State's journey to the FBS, what joining the MAC means for the university and what he expects when the Hornets take the field Saturday. We wrap things up with a California-themed MACtion Minute, getting to know Orr away from the AD chair. A new era begins Saturday. Welcome to the MAC, Sacramento State.

A defense evaluation built to protect Bryan Kohberger became the clearest window into how he processes the world. Dr. Rachel Lawson Orr tested Kohberger, interviewed his family, and cataloged behavioral patterns consistent with a lifetime of diagnoses. Those include autism spectrum disorder, OCD, ADHD, ARFID, developmental coordination disorder, depression, anorexia, and opioid use disorder from a heroin addiction he developed as a teenager. Orr documented a man with restricted facial expression, poor social reciprocity, impulsive rule-breaking, and what she called "overall poor" insight. His family confirmed the patterns and told Orr they had been coaching him through social interactions for years without success. Internet forum posts attributed to Kohberger at age sixteen describe the same gap between how he experienced himself and how others experienced him. He wrote about feeling no emotion, acting without remorse, and seeing the world like a video game. He framed his disconnection as making him "smarter." The evaluation puts clinical language to a pattern visible in every public moment since his arrest. A man on rails, cycling through the same fixed positions, unable to see what everyone around him can see.Listen Anywhere You Get Podcasts: https://pod.link/1655749292Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Bryan Kohberger's unsealed neuropsychological evaluation is the most revealing document in the case, and it has nothing to do with the legal fight. Dr. Rachel Lawson Orr spent six sessions over three months documenting behavioral patterns that Kohberger's own family confirmed had been present for years. Restricted facial expression. Absent social smiling. Conversations refocused back onto himself. Impulsive tendencies. Jokes carried past the point of engagement. Orr diagnosed him with eight conditions, including four previously undisclosed: developmental coordination disorder, depression, anorexia nervosa, and opioid use disorder from a teenage heroin addiction. She noted that Kohberger has met the criteria for autism spectrum disorder since childhood. His parents and sisters told Orr they had tried extensive social coaching for years. It hadn't worked. Forum posts attributed to Kohberger at sixteen describe the same pattern in his own words: no emotion, depersonalization, disconnection from his family, and a belief that the condition made him smarter. Orr's central finding ties the portrait together: "overall poor" insight. The clinical term for a man who can't see himself the way everyone else sees him.Listen Anywhere You Get Podcasts: https://pod.link/1655749292Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

The neuropsychologist Bryan Kohberger's defense team hired to protect him documented something his family had been trying to address for years. Dr. Rachel Lawson Orr spent six sessions testing Kohberger, observing his behavior, and interviewing his parents and sisters. She found restricted affect, absent social smiling, poor reciprocity, impulsive tendencies, and a man who redirected every conversation to his own experience. His family described years of failed social coaching. Orr confirmed the pattern: rigid thinking, limited perspective-taking, and "overall poor" insight. Kohberger showed only fleeting awareness of his own role in situations, and only when directly confronted. The evaluation reveals eight total diagnoses, four previously undisclosed, including a teenage heroin addiction and anorexia. It also connects to forum posts attributed to Kohberger at sixteen, where a user cataloged his own symptoms and described hugging his family and seeing nothing. Understanding how Kohberger's mind works isn't the same as excusing what he did. He admitted to killing four people under oath. But the evaluation explains why the pattern hasn't changed: the petition, the prison interview, the claim that everyone else is the problem. The evaluation says this is a man who has never seen himself the way other people see him.Listen Anywhere You Get Podcasts: https://pod.link/1655749292Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

A newly unsealed neuropsychological evaluation revealed that Bryan Kohberger had been diagnosed with four conditions during an assessment conducted for his defense in February 2025: Autism Spectrum Disorder Level 1, obsessive-compulsive disorder, attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder and avoidant/restrictive food intake disorder, or ARFID. Defense neuropsychologist Rachel Lawson Orr evaluated Kohberger across six sessions over roughly three months and also interviewed members of his family. Orr described Kohberger as having a restricted range of facial expressions, awkward social interactions, unusual speech patterns, inconsistent responses to humor, poor conversational reciprocity, rigid thinking and difficulty adapting to changes in routine. She also noted impulsive behavior during testing and characterized his overall insight as poor, although he occasionally acknowledged his own role in situations when directly challenged. Kohberger's relatives reportedly described many of the same behavioral patterns and said they had spent years attempting to coach him socially without much success.The evaluation also disclosed four additional diagnoses that Orr said Kohberger had met the criteria for at various points in his life: developmental coordination disorder, an unspecified depressive disorder, anorexia nervosa and opioid use disorder stemming from his teenage heroin addiction, which was described as being in sustained remission. The defense had commissioned the evaluation as part of the dispute over how Kohberger's mental health should be treated in the case, arguing that his conditions could constitute mitigating evidence rather than aggravating factors; it was not intended to support a claim that he lacked the mental capacity to stand trial or understand his actions. Kohberger likewise did not rely on the diagnoses to challenge his competency when he pleaded guilty in July 2025 to murdering Madison Mogen, Kaylee Goncalves, Xana Kernodle and Ethan Chapin. The evaluation became public as Kohberger continued his post-conviction effort to withdraw that plea, claiming ineffective assistance of counsel and seeking a trial.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Bryan Kohberger Psych Evaluation Details Killer's 8 ‘Mental Health Disorders'

Bryan Kohberger underwent a number of evaluations by mental health professionals as his lawyers prepared to defend him against four counts of murder in 2025. Dr. Rachel Orr, a neuropsychologist, met with Kohberger and conducted a battery of tests. She diagnosed him with a number of disorders including Autism and an eating disorder. Now some of Dr. Orr's findings have been unsealed.

Send Kevin a Text MessageJim Orr is President of Domestic Theatrical Distribution at Universal Pictures. He began his career at Paramount and joined Universal in 2016 after leading distribution at Focus Features and MGM. Brandon Purdie is Executive Vice President and Head of Theatrical Distribution at Angel Studios, the audience-funded studio behind Sound of Freedom, where he helped build a community-driven model that puts greenlight decisions in the hands of its 2.4 million members. Host Kevin Goetz brings the two together for a wide-ranging conversation on how films find audiences in an era of theaters, streaming, VOD, and direct fan engagement.From Del Monte to Distribution (08:41): Orr recounts talking his way into a sales job at Del Monte out of college, then cold-calling studio distribution heads until Paramount hired him on the spot.The Roadshow Era and the First Wide Break (11:36): Orr traces distribution's earliest days, when prints traveled by car with regional reps, through to the thousand-plus theater breaks standard by the time of Star Trek.Content Is Still King (23:02): Both guests agree the movie itself remains the deciding factor in box office success, with Purdie noting a quiet week usually just means there isn't a film people want to see yet.Building Angel Studios from a Membership, Not a Subscription (30:02): Purdie explains Angel's founding principle: no executive can greenlight a film without approval from the Angel Guild, whose members vote on projects and get free tickets to every release.Pay It Forward and the Sound of Freedom Phenomenon (34:06): Purdie details how Angel's "Pay It Forward" ticketing model generated more than $20 million in donated tickets, helping turn Sound of Freedom into a summer 2023 box office surprise.The Green Book Playbook (44:27): Orr points to Green Book as his proudest Universal moment, explaining how a deliberately limited release avoided split grosses and let the film build week over week toward a Best Picture win.What Keeps Them Up at Night, and the Next Five Years (49:26): Purdie names human apathy as Angel's biggest threat. Orr predicts modest theater consolidation and growth in premium formats, while Purdie sees Angel continuing to scale its guild and slate.Host: Kevin GoetzGuests: Jim Orr and Brandon PurdieProducer: Kari CampanoWriters: Kevin Goetz, Darlene Hayman, and Kari CampanoAudio Engineer: Gary Forbes (DG Entertainment)For more information about Jim Orr and Brandon Purdie:Jim Orr (Universal Pictures): https://www.universalpictures.com/leadership-team/?name=jim-orrJim Orr (LinkedIn): https://www.linkedin.com/in/jim-orr-50ab7b8/For more information about Kevin Goetz:- Website: www.KevinGoetz360.com- Audienceology Book: https://www.simonandschuster.com/books/Audience-ology/Kevin-Goetz/9781982186678- How to Score in Hollywood: https://www.amazon.com/How-Score-Hollywood-Secrets-Business/dp/198218986X/- Facebook, X, Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, Substack: @KevinGoetz360- LinkedIn @Kevin Goetz- Screen Engine/ASI Website: www.ScreenEngineASI.com

El viernes 31 de julio, el gobierno del presidente Donald Trump terminó el contrato de varios años con organizaciones civiles que defienden a unos 24,000 niños migrantes no acompañados, quienes podrían enfrentar solos audiencias ante jueces que determinarán sus casos sobre deportación o asilo. El Departamento de Salud y Servicios Humanos (HHS), del que depende la Oficina de Reasentamiento de Refugiados conocida (ORR), acusa inconsistencias en la defensa de los menores, pero las organizaciones rechazan compartir información sensible sobre los niños. Para explicarnos esta problemática invitamos a Karina Ramos, directora de Defensa en Immigrant Defenders Law Center, una organización que tiene al menos 1,500 casos de niños bajo su cargo.

The focus of the podcast is how states are working toward connecting education and training systems with the workforce. State policymakers are keenly interested in measuring the return on investment or ROI that they can see from state investment in education and training programs of all kinds.  Our guests are Mary Alice McCarthy, founder and senior director of the Center on Education and Labor at New America, a nonpartisan think tank; Alabama Senator Arthur Orr and Utah Representative Norm Thurston. All three joined a group of more than 30 legislators, speakers, and staff at a recent conference in Bozeman, Montana convened by NCSL. They discussed ROI and the related issue of career pathways and a variety of other topics and at how to align career and technical education, credentialed programs and apprenticeship opportunities with high-demand occupations.  McCarthy explained the concept of ROI as it applies to assessing the effectiveness of educational and training programs, the types of questions legislators have about this approach and the different types of data most useful to policymakers. Senator Orr and Representative Thurston offered different perspectives from their states and discussed what they saw as the most valuable data to consider in evaluating the success of programs.  Resources Connecting Education and Workforce for Higher Returns: A Scan of State Legislative Approaches, NCSL Enlisting ROI to Better Align Academic Credentials and Workforce Needs, NCSL New America

Adrian Goldberg highlights a brilliant Byline Times investigation by Nafeez Ahmed and Peter Jukes which exposes the links between Cambridge University, Reform UK and the Trump-supporting US tech billionaire Peter Thiel… The individual who connects all three is James Orr – who is both an associate professor of Divinity at Cambridge AND Head of Policy at Reform. He's been described as Nigel Farage's kingmaker. Orr runs a postgraduate compound in Cambridge , which has hosted various controversial figures including Peter Thiel himself, his protégé, US vice-president JD Vance, Dutch anti-Islam campaigner Ayaan Hirsi Ali and Canadian anti woke activist Jordan Peterson.  Nafeez and Peter raise serious questions about student safeguarding, the funding of Orr's operation and, ultimately, foreign influence in UK politics.

The problem with bashing the Reserve Bank of New Zealand in real time is that nobody really knows how badly they might have cocked something until well after the cocking's happened. There weren't many —though not none— chiding Orr for low rates until it was bleedingly obvious in actual data, and what Prince Harry would term 'lived experience', that prices were on the march. The RBNZ has decided to hike now. They'll probably do another one in September, assuming Trump's ceasefire pause is just that, and beyond September is anyone's guess. One argument is that they'll hike in September, hold in October ahead of the election in November, then stick their finger in the air for December. Either way we're heading towards either 2.75% or 3% by Christmas. Most of this has been priced into wholesale rates. The justification for the hike, as has been pointed out by a couple of economists, is it's easier to swallow. For them to come out and say "we're hiking now because the economy is on the up, plus a bit of war pricing potential", that's a lot easier to stomach than "we're hiking now and there's no growth - welcome to stagflation nation". Tony Alexander makes the point that the bank has been criticised in the past for hiking too late, letting prices get away, then overcorrecting on rates, plunging us into a deep and uncomfortable recession. Given they're now moving relatively early, they can move and wait and see and (hopefully) avoid the same mistakes. I like to believe Tony's predictions. And I hope he's right.

Passenger Assistance is a service rail users can book for help with things like navigating unfamiliar stations and catching connecting trains. When it goes right, it can be a service that boosts independence and travel confidence, but it can often go wrong. So now the Office of Rail and Road, who are the regulator for Britain's railways, are consulting on a new framework that aims to make the process of putting things right for passengers fairer. The regulator's Head of Consumer Jacqui Russell explains what is in their framework and how you can respond to their consultation. More details of how to do respond below:Consultation webpage: orr.gov.uk/search-consultations/consultation-framework-determining-redress-booked-assistance-not-provided If you need the consultation documents in large print, audio recording or braille, contact ORR on: 0207 282 2000 (select option 3) You can also email consultation responses to: ATP@orr.gov.ukThe Elizabeth Eagle-Bott Memorial Fund is provided by the RNIB and it helps visually impaired musicians with additional costs, such as access technology, instruments and music tuition.

In this episode of Oncology Unplugged, host Chandler Park, MD, a medical oncologist at Norton Cancer Institute in Louisville, Kentucky, was joined by Neil M. Iyengar, MD, an associate professor and co-director of Breast Medical Oncology in the Department of Hematology and Medical Oncology at the Emory University School of Medicine, as well as the director of Survivorship Services at the Winship Cancer Institute of Emory University in Atlanta, Georgia.Their conversation focused on the rapidly evolving treatment paradigm for triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC), the integration of metabolic health strategies, the clinical emergence of antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) in the frontline metastatic setting, and the management of treatment-related toxicities.Drs Park and Iyengar examined data from the phase 3 TROPION-Breast02 trial (NCT05374512), which evaluated first-line datopotamab deruxtecan-dlnk (Dato-DXd; Datroway) in patients with PD-L1-negative metastatic TNBC. The trial demonstrated improvements in both progression-free survival and overall survival (OS) with Dato-DXd compared with standard chemotherapy. Notably, the experts also highlighted a remarkable ORR with Dato-DXd, showing that the ADC may be a robust treatment option for symptomatic patients or those experiencing rapid progression.They also discussed individualizing treatment between Dato-DXd and sacituzumab govitecan-hziy (Trodelvy) based on biomarker status, dosing schedules, and distinct toxicity profiles. Furthermore, the experts emphasized the importance of proactive management of unique ADC-associated toxicities. For Dato-DXd, they recommended prophylactic dexamethasone mouthwash and lubricating eye drops to mitigate mucositis and corneal surface events. For sacituzumab govitecan, they noted the necessity of growth factor support for neutropenia and loperamide for diarrhea.Regarding early-stage disease, they reaffirmed the phase 3 KEYNOTE-522 trial (NCT03036488) regimen of pembrolizumab (Keytruda) plus chemotherapy as the standard of care, with adjuvant escalation using capecitabine or PARP inhibitors for patients with residual disease.Drs Park and Iyengar concluded by spotlighting metabolic health interventions for patients with breast cancer. Although GLP-1 receptor agonists show promise in breast cancer survivors, Dr Iyengar cautioned against their initiation during active neoadjuvant immunotherapy due to their potential effects on pathologic complete response rates. He advocated for lifestyle interventions, including resistance training and a plant-forward, high-protein diet, to maintain lean muscle mass and improve OS outcomes.

Love to hear from you; “Send us a Text Message”330,000 missing kids is not a talking point. It's a flashing red warning that something is broken in how the U.S. Deep State handles unaccompanied migrant children, child welfare, and immigration enforcement. We walk through the story of a young teen released from federal custody who ends up working punishing overnight shifts, then widen the lens to the numbers, the incentives, and the institutions that move children through the system.Tom Hampson, a crime investigator and reporter, joins us to explain what he found while investigating ORR placements, trafficking risk, and the role of NGOs that present as “charities” while being funded almost entirely by taxpayer dollars. We talk about what it means when the government acts in loco parentis, why fractured bureaucracy makes responsibility disappear, and how stonewalled FOIA requests keep the public from seeing where the money and the paperwork actually lead.We also put the moral argument on the table, including Catholic social teaching on immigration: welcome where possible, protect the common good, enforce just laws, and never treat vulnerable people as objects in a pipeline. The conversation touches media narratives, church leadership, and the uncomfortable truth that “compassion” can become cover for negligence when no one is forced to answer for outcomes. If you care about border security, human rights, child protection, and government accountability, this one will challenge you.Visit Tom Hampsons Substack: https://thomasrhampson.substack.com/Evangelizing Gen Z!!

Results from the first-in-human, phase 1 MYTHIC trial (NCT04855656) demonstrated that combining the WEE1 inhibitor zedoresertib with the PYKMT1 inhibitor lunresertib achieved an overall response rate (ORR) of 18.5% via RECIST criteria in patients with CCNE1, FBXW7, and PPP2R1A-altered cancers.1 In patients with resistant/refractory ovarian cancer, the ORR was 33.3% across all dose levels and 50% at the potential recommended phase 2 dose. These data were presented by Timothy A. Yap, MBBS, PhD, FRCP, at the 2026 American Association for Cancer Research (AACR) Annual Meeting. Following his presentation, Yap joined CancerNetwork® for a discussion where he highlighted some of the most interesting takeaways from the trial. According to Yap, the disease states evaluated in this trial represent areas of unmet need where no specific standard-of-care options can target these alterations.Notably, based on results from this trial, the FDA granted fast track designation to lunresertib in combination with zedoresertib in patients with genomic-defined platinum-resistant ovarian cancer.2Yap is a medical oncologist and physician-scientist, as well as the Random Horne, Jr. Endowed Professor for Cancer Research and vice president and head of Clinical Development in the Therapeutics Discovery Division at UT MD Anderson Cancer Center.References1.        Yap TA, Aggarwal R, Fontana E, et al.

In today's episode, we welcomed Luhua (Michael) Wang, MD, to discuss the implications of the full FDA approval of brexucabtagene autoleucel (Tecartus; brexu-cel) for the treatment of adult patients with relapsed/refractory mantle cell lymphoma (MCL). Dr Wang is a professor in the Department of Lymphoma/Myeloma in the Division of Cancer Medicine, as well as a professor in the Department of Stem Cell Transplantation at The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center in Houston.On April 2, 2026, the FDA granted traditional approval to brexu-cel based on data from the phase 2 ZUMA-2 trial (cohorts 1 and 2, NCT02601313; cohort 3, NCT04880434), with confirmatory data from cohort 3 showing that patients naive to a BTK inhibitor experienced an overall response rate (ORR) of 91% (95% CI, 82.5%-95.9%), a complete response (CR) rate of 79% (95% CI, 69.0%-87.1%), and a median duration of response (DOR) that was not reached (NR; 95% CI, 26.2 months-not evaluable).Dr Wang detailed the evolution of therapies in the MCL treatment paradigm, leading up to the approval of brexu-cel and the integration of CAR T-cell therapy. Along with highlighting the evolution of MCL management, Dr Wang explained how data from cohort 3 of ZUMA-2 add further context to the role of CAR T-cell therapy in the treatment paradigm and how it may affect treatment sequencing considerations.

Orr v. Trump

We can thank the new Reserve Bank Governor for ending the week on a high note. New charter details were announced yesterday. Charters and Reserve Banks were once as dry as old dust but these days I think we have a new understanding of the importance of their role. Out of Covid and economic shambles has come more talk than ever about cash rates and inflation and debt and wasteful expenditure. The main change for me is the Monetary Policy votes will be made public, and not a moment too soon. They are already starting to hold press conferences after each decision. Some decisions are statements, some are reviews and, as such, carry different amounts of detail and information. But the idea that they front after each decision shouldn't be new. It should have always happened. Just what was it about the thinking at the lower end of the terrace in the capital that had them believing that simply putting out a statement was plenty. Why wouldn't they want questions? Why wouldn't they want to be held to account? Given everything is streamed these days you can watch it all. There's no need for a journalist to cut and paste a few so-called highlights to skew the narrative. Free and open and complete accountability should be welcomed, and this is overdue. But as for the vote, the same thinking applies. If you hold the power of a committee member and if you get a say in a mechanism as important as the country's cash rate, once again, what's your argument for remaining quiet? To keep it a secret? If the vote is 5-1, who is the one and why? What's wrong with an explanation? For example, there were four dissenting votes yesterday at the Fed. Let's hear about it. Knowledge is power and the fact we are only at this place in 2026 is a crime of sorts. A condescending attitude where they clearly thought we didn't need to know. So far new Governor Dr Anna Breman has introduced pressers, changed the charter and promised to at least partially look through the immediate inflationary impact of the war. So far, so impressive. I like the cut of her gib. Orr vs Breman? No contest. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Interviewer: MATTHEW ROTH. The ways in which the Civil Rights Movement translated passion and protest into durable political change were complex, involving a wide range of actors beyond those most prominently enshrined in the popular imagination. In his new book, political scientist MARION ORR argues for the critical importance of a figure now widely forgotten: Michigan Congressman Charles C. Diggs, Jr., who during his tenure from 1955-1980 was a persistent and effective voice for desegregation and Black self-determination. In his discussion with historian Matthew Roth, Orr describes Diggs' roots in his Detroit family's funeral home, the House of Diggs; his political career as a pathbreaking Black Michigan Senator and then U.S. Congressman; his accomplishments, ranging from the desegregation of airline travel and Washington D.C. home rule to the founding of both the Congressional Black Caucus and institutions critical to the anti-Apartheid movement; and finally, to his downfall with a criminal conviction for the financial mismanagement of his congressional office. Orr's book is House of Diggs: The Rise and Fall of America's Most Consequential Black Congressman, Charles C. Diggs Jr.

Public health nurses are on the front lines of community health but many are facing stress, burnout, and limited opportunities for advancement. In this episode Shirley Orr, executive director for the Association of Public Health Nurses, talks about the final session in the Public Health Nursing Workforce Learning Lab series and what it reveals about retaining the public health nursing workforce. Drawing on insights from the Association of Public Health Nurses and the Public Health Workforce Interests and Needs Survey (PH WINS), Orr discusses why about a quarter of public health nurses say they may leave the field, and what leaders can do about it. From fostering supportive workplace cultures and strong supervision to creating clear pathways for professional development and shared decision-making, the conversation highlights practical strategies agencies can use to improve satisfaction and keep nurses engaged.Meeting Home PageASTHO (@astho) on X⁠, Bluesky, Instagram, LinkedIn, ⁠Facebook

Podcast host, Alan Skorski, interviewed Dr. Tim Orr, an Evangelical leader, who earned six Masters Degrees, including a Masters in Islam, while studying at the London School of Islam under the tutelage of a Shia Muslim leader. During the interview Dr. Orr spoke of his visit to London on October 7, 2023, and without knowing all the news that was happening in Israel following the Hamas invasion, witnessed horrific antisemitic demonstrations taking place in the streets of London. At the same time, he was watching news from America from his hotel room, and saw almost identical types of rallies and demonstrations that were amongst the most antisemitic he had ever witnessed. These events led him to speak out in support of Israel, while he was still in London, and scheduled to speak to Muslim audiences as an interfaith leader. He said that his speaking engagements were immediately cancelled, and the Shia leaders who had once engaged him began to curse him and tell him they regret ever befriending him. Following October 7th, Dr. Orr wrote; “What I felt most was that the Church there was very weak. And that weakness carried a cost. That disorientation deepened when I watched American and European universities erupt days later with the same slogans and emotional choreography. It was then I realized I was witnessing the expression of a coherent transnational worldview, not a series of isolated events.” On antisemitism and how support for Israel is weaponized against Jews, Dr. Orr has written; Antisemitism persists not only because it is protected, but because institutions and cultures continue to choose it for its usefulness. It offers a ready explanation for failure, resentment, and moral unease. It allows societies under strain to direct judgment outward while preserving a sense of righteousness. And it does this by rendering Jews abstract enough to blame and unreal enough to disregard.When Israel is a symbol, every Israeli action is interpreted negatively, because symbols are judged by their natures, not by circumstances. When Israel uses force, it is not responding to a threat, but revealing its nature. When it exhibits restraint, it is merely biding time, and accused of cruelty by inaction: there is no space for tragedy, since tragedy exists only when two legitimate claims are in conflict, and Israel is denied legitimacy from the outset. Intent is always presumed, and never examined. Condemnation is not a conclusion, but a premise. “Dr. Orr looks at how antisemitism operates in today's political, media, and activist spaces—not just as hatred, but as a system that adapts and hides in plain sight—and how Islamist movements and narratives play a role in spreading it in the West. He brings a clear, evidence-based perspective to topics that are often misunderstood or deliberately blurred. Tim is the author of six books, including his forthcoming Antisemitism Is More Than Hatred—It's a System: How It Works, Why It Persists, and How It Adapts to Every Age.” He is currently offering an online course titled: Architecture of Antisemitism: Structure. not Just Hatred -VIN News Watch the video interview: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_f6bE6bTKiE Alan Skorski Reports 29JAN2026 - PODCAST

John Anderson speaks with James Orr to examine the deeper moral, cultural, and institutional pressures shaping Britain and the wider Western world. Drawing on political philosophy, social analysis, and recent events, Orr challenges the prevailing assumption that economic management and procedural politics can sustain a stable society. He argues that questions of identity, belonging, and shared obligation now sit at the centre of national renewal. This conversation traces the erosion of social trust, the limits of rights-based politics, and the consequences of demographic and cultural fragmentation. It is a measured discussion that reorients political debate toward the moral and cultural foundations required for long-term national stability, rather than short-term policy adjustments. Dr. Orr holds a PhD and MPhil in Philosophy of Religion from the University of Cambridge and a BA in Classics from Oxford. He is a political philosopher, writer, and commentator whose work focuses on conservatism, political theology, identity, and the cultural preconditions of liberal democracy, with particular attention to Britain's institutional and civilisational inheritance.
