For nearly 30 years, Randy Newman has been the musical voice behind Pixar's most beloved films—Toy Story, Monsters Inc., Cars, and more—earning multiple awards and generations of fans. But beyond these nostalgic soundtracks lies a body of work that's often overlooked. Newman's solo career is a masterclass in sharp, literate satire, tackling America's deepest flaws with a deceptively laid-back style. From Sail Away to I Love L.A., his songs blend humor with biting social commentary. In this Rock N Roll Archaeology Short, we explore Newman's 1970s-era music and the new biography A Few Words in Defense of Our Country by legendary rock critic Robert Hilburn.

The WildStory: A Podcast of Poetry and Plantsby the Native Plant Society of New JerseyHosted byAnn E. Wallace, PhDPoet Laureate Emeritus of Jersey CityCo-hostKim Correro,Rutgers Master Gardener and Director of State ProgramsSpecial ContributorDr. Randi EckelEntomologist and Vice President of Membership NPSNJDo you have a question about native plants for Randi?Email: TheWildStory@npsnj.orgThe WildStory presents a special episode this month in celebration of Black History. We have three amazing guests, who share the stories of Black Americans who wrote poetry, created gardens, advanced the field of horticulture, and inspired others—and who are each doing important work themselves today. An unexpected throughline in these conversations is the influence of W.E.B. DuBois, the Black leader, visionary and author of the 1903 book The Souls of Black Folk, which inspired generations of Black Americans toward self-realization and liberty through education, the arts and culture, and more. The first guest is Shaun Spencer-Hester (0:04:43), granddaughter of the poet, gardener, and community leader Anne Spencer. Anne Spencer's home and garden in Lynchburg, Virginia was a gathering place for Black intellectuals of the Harlem Renaissance, offering a garden refuge and retreat at a time when many Black Americans had migrated north to urban centers for new opportunities. Shaun shares family stories about her grandmother's life, garden, and poetry, and brings us inside theAnne Spencer House and Garden Museum, where she is the Executive Director and Curator. In lieu of our usual Ask Randi segment, this month, Kim and Ann take the mic and dive into the exciting opportunities on the horizon for NPSNJ members (0:41:10)! Mark your calendars for the highly anticipatedSpring Annual Meeting and Conference on March 1st, where we're proud to welcome the esteemed keynote speaker Doug Tallamy. NPSNJ is rolling outsix brand new classes that explore a range of captivating topics, and is thrilled to introduce a Spanish language version of the helpful brochure, "Going Native: A Guide to Landscaping with Native Plants in Northern New Jersey.” Don't miss these incredible chances to elevate your knowledge and skills! In the second interview, Jerri Mitchell-Lee of Newark, NJ speaks with us about her remarkable great-aunt,Effie Lee Newsome (0:50:33) a prominent figure of the Harlem Renaissance. Newsome was the editor of the children's column "Little Page" in W.E.B. Du Bois's influential publication, The Crisis, where she showcased several of her own children's poems. An avid lover of the outdoors, Effie Lee Newsome possessed an extraordinary talent for connecting people—especially children—with the wonders of nature. Whether she was marveling at a spider, a goldfinch, a snowflake, or a violet, she made the natural world come alive. In 1940, she published Gladiola Garden: Poems of Outdoors and Indoors, which was reprinted in 2020, making her work accessible to a brand new audience. In the final segment, horticulturalistAbra Lee (1:10:01) tells us about her highly anticipated book, Conquer The Soil: Black America and the Untold Stories of Our Country's Gardeners, Farmers, and Growers (Timber Press, 2026). This remarkable work is set to inspire readers and shed light on the profound history and culture of Black growers across our nation. Abra serves as the Director of Horticulture at the historicOakland Cemetery in Atlanta, GA. During our conversation, we delve into Abra's impressive career path and explore the influential figures in her life, particularly her parents, who encouraged her curiosity and ambition.Thank you for joining us on The WildStory.

Thank you Michele George, Peder Dahlberg, and many others for tuning into my live video! Join me for my next live video in the app.* Trump says he is taking back the Panama Canal. His revenge for tax evasion in Panama will fail: Donald Trump said he was taking the Panama Canal back in his inauguration speech. It was a revenge move because Panama called out his companies' corruption. Panamanians will never allow the recreation of an apartheid sub-state to run the canal that is rightfully theirs. [More]* Trump Inauguration Dubbed ‘A Coronation of Our Country's Descent Into Oligarchy': “Today marks the beginning of an administration dominated by billionaires and corporate interests.” [More]* The TikTok ban is a fraud, and Democrats gave Trump a layup to win over some young voters: The Trump-inspired bipartisan TikTok ban was a fraud on Americans. Sadly, Democrats fell into Trump's trap as he now comes out as the savior of the platform. [More] To hear more, visit egberto.substack.com

Randy Newman is one of the most misunderstood and under-celebrated musicians of the modern era. Reknowned Music Journalist/Author Robert Hilburn's new book, A Few Words in Defense of Our Country is the definitive Randy Newman biography and Bob joins us to spotlight the genius and the legend of a great American musician and storyteller.Robert Hilburn was the music critic for the Los Angeles Times for 35 years and he's written books about John Lennon, Paul Simon, Bruce Springsteen and Johnny Cash. Bob tells us that Newman (much like Simon) had to be convinced to have his legacy chronicled. Randy grew up in a legendary musical family in which tooting your horn (metaphorically) was frowned upon. His uncles composed movie scores and they taught Randy to let the work be your voice.We hear about Randy's challenging childhood, the pressure he felt to succeed in music and how success, once achieved, incurred his father's envy. Throughout his career, Randy's best childhood friend, Lenny Waronker (who became a record exec) believed in him, opened doors and cheered his efforts.Diving further into Randy's work flow, creative struggles and anxiety-taming efforts, Bob illuminates Randy's genre-bending and cultural interrogating musical achievements.We also delve, with Bob, into the influence once held by music critics in the golden ages of both print media and the music industry. We discuss the futures of recorded music and journalism and Bob tells us about his favorite interview ever… with Bob Dylan… and that one time he went to Folsom Prison with Johnny Cash.Plus, Weezy recommends the original Apple TV+ movie, Blitz and Fritz is currently into the new series Rivals, streaming on Hulu and other platforms.Path Points of Interest:Robert HilburnRobert Hilburn on WikipediaA Few Words In Defense of Our Country: The Biography of Randy Newman by Robert HilburnRobert Hilburn Amazon Author PageRobert Hilburn on XAmanda PetrusichBlitz on Apple TVRivals - On Several Platforms

On this election day, Will You "Stand in the Gap" for Our Country to Participate in and Lead a Great Awakening and Spiritual Renewal in America? MESSAGE SUMMARY: On July 4, 1776, the signers of the Declaration of Independence began a revolution which started the United States of America. The Revolution was rooted in the belief that all people, even the King and governmental leaders, are subject to the rule of God and not above the law and; and everyone is endowed by God, our Creator, with certain inalienable rights. Many people have tried to deny that America's founders created a country which wove together the idea of self-governance with Christian principles. Now, it appears, the focus is to get rid of things relating America to Christianity, the Bible, or anything that smacks of God – and, pretty much these efforts to remove God's influence from the public square, appear to be succeeding. We need to hear, in Today's sermon, what our founders said regarding America's Christian base. However, not long after the enactment of the Constitution in the late 1700s, morality and church attendance declined drastically into a Spiritual Depression. The answer became the nationwide implementation of "Concerts of Prayer", across all Christian denominations, that led to an American Spiritual Awakening. Today, through our actions, laws, and cultural revisions of our founding Christian principles, we have told God that we don't want Him around. Therefore, God has obliged us; and He has done what He said He would do -- God is withdrawing His presence and His protection and holding back His divine wisdom, which has guided us for so many years. God is leaving us to reap the consequences of our focus away from Him and without Him. The Lord Said through Ezekiel: "I looked for a man among them who would build up the wall and stand in the gap on behalf of the land so I would not have to destroy it, but I found none.". We must have a Spiritual Awakening, in our country, beginning today! Will You "Stand in the Gap"? TODAY'S PRAYER: Lord, Sabbath rest is truly an unbelievable gift! Thank you that there is nothing I can do to earn your love; it comes without any strings attached. As I close my eyes for these few minutes before you, all I can say is, thank you! In Jesus' name, amen. Scazzero, Peter. Emotionally Healthy Spirituality Day by Day (p. 133). Zondervan. Kindle Edition. TODAY'S AFFIRMATION: Today, I affirm that because of what God has done for me in His Son, Jesus, I AM RIGHTEOUS IN GOD'S EYES. God made Him who had no sin to be sin for us, so that in Him we might become the righteousness of God. 2 Corinthians 5:21 SCRIPTURE REFERENCE (ESV): Ezekiel 22:30; Daniel 4:28-32; Matthew 22:19-21; Isaiah 29:8-21; (Click the Bible References, in blue, below to read the full Bible text for these Scripture References.).

[SEGMENT 1-1] Updates and 6 Israeli hostages The world is in turmoil and Biden is on the beach. Hells Angels headed to CO to deal with Venezuelan gangs? Is this true? 6 Israeli hostages found murdered. Headline: found “dead” Like they died of COVID?! They were murdered by monsters from Hamas. One of them was an American Hersh Goldberg-Polin, murdered by Hamas due to a complete lack of American Strength and Leadership. Captured, tortured, having his arms removed…try to imagine this. For your child or yourself. This is the choice we are making in November. Make no mistake — This happened because Comrade Kamala Harris and Crooked Joe Biden are poor Leaders. Americans are getting slaughtered overseas, while Kamala is disparaging and making up lies about Gold Star families, and Biden is sleeping on the beach on this 16th consecutive day of vacation. They have blood on their hands! S adly, this is the total lack of “Leadership” that Kamala and Biden represent — One that allows terrorists to take American lives, because they only care about Weaponizing the Department of Justice against their Political Opponent. Just like the Debacle of the Afghanistan Withdrawal that claimed 13 American lives, Kamala and Biden's judgment has not only put lives at risk, but is directly responsible for unnecessary deaths that should have never happened. Our Country and our amazing people are not safe under Joe Biden, and will be less safe under Kamala Harris. This terror would have never happened if I were President, and it will stop the day I am back in the Oval Office. America will be Strong Again, and that will make the World Safe and Secure! [SEGMENT 1-2] Another church burned in France… New church burned in France, this time, church of Immaculate Conception of Saint Omer in Calais. Now it only remains to understand why so many churches and zero mosques have burned in France in recent years. Does anyone have an explanation? [SEGMENT 1-2] Arresting Trump 1 It's a WAR! And I'm not fighting, I'm killing… The zeal of Democrats to get President Trump at any costs was seen recently in the failed assassination attempt. But as many of us warned, Democrats will not stop. And as their scheme to make Americans believe that Kamala Harris can save the Democratic Party fails, Democrat get more desperate. Apparently the failed assassination triggered Democrats to a new DepCon level. Thus, according to my friend Laura Loomer, Democrats may be truly jumping the shark. Laura tweeted on X:[SEGMENT 1-3] Arresting Trump 2 A Federal law enforcement agent has just told me that the New York State National Guard @NationalGuardNY has started staging guardsmen in hotels around the NYC courthouse where President Trump is going to be sentenced on September 18th, as they are expecting that… — Laura Loomer (@LauraLoomer) August 30, 2024 Another friend of mine, Jen Lawrence posted this video of Army personnel occupying a hotel in New York. They say they were requested by the state: Holy crap this was what the video I watched earlier was about. @JG_CSTT thought it was for the migrants but this makes way more sense. @LauraLoomer pic.twitter.com/S20Oqmxx43 — Jen Lawrence (@JenLawrence21) August 31, 2024 If Democrats arrest Trump and send him to Rikers? How about you finish that phrase to complete the sentence. If Trump is arrested (again), that will be the tipping point for a true insurrection. Not that Trump needs the help, but arresting him and putting him in prison will guarantee his re-election. That act would cause the biggest shift in voters in modern political history. Trump must know what's happening, and yet I'd bet he hasn't a care in the world. I speak and write often of Trump being uniquely qualified to be president at this time, if America is to be saved. I can't imagine any candidate surviving this, as all would have dropped out by now. But not Trump. [X] SB – RFK Jr explains how Blackrock gets big deals [SEGMENT 1-4] Arresting Trump 3 [X] SB – Crockett on Trump Seeing the contrast Middle-class, housing… [X] SB – Trump on Harris losing 325,000 kids Democrats have pushed Trump well beyond what should have been his breaking point, and he barely bends. America should be thankful for such a warrior. A man willing to forego "a big beautiful life", to face the persecution by Democrats. Undoubtedly, if Democrats can break Trump, they can break any citizen. Elon Musk gets. And something tells me that even Mark Zuckerberg who allowed this to happen in 2020 gets it. Nobody is protected if Democrats can allow the 2020 coup of Trump, the coup of their own sitting president, and then prevent Trump from his rightful second term. Throw in Biden getting away with his corruption, and the fact that the DOJ is part of the corruption and you get a Banana Republic. September will be a busy month, and not just because the election looms. Trump will fully expose Kamala Harris on September 10. Democrats know this already, thus the preparation for the ultimate "take Trump out" move. Now the good news for Conservatives: it won't work.

America will soon have a president who laughs easily and a humorous vice president, leading what will be the most progressive and joyful administration in American history. Kamala Harris made a strong choice by selecting beloved football coach, former teacher, and Minnesota governor Tim Walz as her running mate. This move unites the Democrats' Big Tent coalition, which has historically won them the White House. Walz's heartfelt and straightforward approach won him a U.S. House seat in a rural Republican district and re-election as governor of Minnesota, where he used a slim Democratic majority to achieve bold progressive victories: strengthening LGBTQ+ protections to make Minnesota a refuge for trans people; committing to decarbonization by 2040; protecting reproductive healthcare; significantly reducing child poverty; implementing automatic voter registration; strengthening gun safety laws; signing into law free school meals and free public college; banning forever chemicals known as PFAS; calling for a ceasefire and hostage deal early; and much more. Harris reportedly chose Walz to collaborate on advancing a progressive national agenda, and his humor is an added bonus. Walz won hearts across America by labeling MAGA as “weird,” because it is. His famous charm will destroy J.D. Vance, a fascist tool of dark lord Peter Thiel. Harris and Walz are roughly the same age, which means, if we hold on tight, we could have eight years of President Harris followed by eight years of President Walz, strengthening America's future as we build a sustainable economy for all, especially for the planet. *** You think modern women have it tough now? Not too long ago, in 2007, Christopher Hitchens wrote an essay for Vanity Fair titled, “Why Women Aren't Funny.” In it, he argued, “Whereas women, bless their tender hearts, would prefer that life be fair, and even sweet, rather than the sordid mess it actually is. Jokes about calamitous visits to the doctor or the shrink or the bathroom, or the venting of sexual frustration on furry domestic animals, are a male province.” In his view, women are precious baby-making machines, and that power forces them into being a solemn presence–a reserved audience for men, who have evolved with the purpose of making society laugh. Today, a woman vice president of the United States is the second most powerful person in the world. And the most that her enemies can come up with is that she laughs too much and has never given birth. The slim pickings of criticism of Kamala Harris by MAGA are as thin as Hitchens' arguments, and they all boil down to misogyny that will be relegated to history books. That era was defined by the reign of “the rape joke king” Tucker Max, bestselling author of the book I Hope They Serve Beer in Hell, in case you've blocked him out of your memory. Coming of age during that time, a group of childhood girlfriends decided to create their own satire of this misogynistic hellscape, Betches Media. Joining us this week on Gaslit Nation to make sense of the war on women, past and present, and what to do about it is Sami Sage, co-founder of Betches Media and co-author, along with Emily Amick of the popular civic-action Instagram account Emily in Your Phone, Democracy in Retrograde: How to Make Changes Big and Small in Our Country and Our Lives. This conversation was recorded during one of the darkest weeks in American democracy: the Republican National Convention. As they say, it's aways darkest before the dawn. Much has changed since then, but this conversation with Sami Sage remains as current as ever as we celebrate the opening words of the Gaslit Nation Action Guide: Democracy is a lifestyle. That's the only way we ensure the first Black woman president, and secure our democracy in the critical years to come.

If you’ve been feeling hopeless about the news, the election, the economy, the climate crisis and everything else that’s going on, today’s episode is for you. Emily Amick, lawyer and co-author of “Democracy in Retrograde: How to Make Changes Big and Small in Our Country and in Our Lives,” argues we can all become better participants in our democracy. And we don’t need to have a gazillion dollars to do it. On the show today, Amick explains why we should treat civic engagement as self-care, how to find your civic personality and ways to cultivate a news diet that doesn’t put you in a doom loop. Plus, the moment she realized our democracy was headed in the wrong direction. Then, we’ll get into how voters in Utah fought to protect the power of citizen-led ballot initiatives and why shoppers hide purchases from their romantic partners. Plus, an anime cosplayer was wrong about what it would take to create her own costume. Here’s everything we talked about today: “Despite Recent Setbacks, There Is Still Hope For Democracy” from Forbes “In ‘Democracy in Retrograde,’ Emily Amick Talks About Political Engagement and Her Cancer Diagnosis” from Teen Vogue “What does Utah's redistricting ruling do to voters' ability to change laws?” from The Salt Lake Tribune “Utah Supreme Court: Lawmakers must heed voter-passed gerrymandering reforms “ from Axios Salt Lake City “Amazon’s Prime Day a ‘major’ cause of worker injuries, Senate probe finds” from CNBC “US Retail Sales Excluding Autos Rise by Most in Three Months” from Bloomberg “Gym Bags, Trunks, Back Doors: How Stealth Shoppers Hide Purchases” from The Wall Street Journal “Financial Infidelity Report 2023: Why People Hide Purchases From Partners” from Circuit “Inside a UPS warehouse that prioritizes super-fast shipping” from Marketplace How are you getting involved in civic life?

We're all still recovering from last week's debate and what it means for the election, but like we said in our last episode, the stakes have not changed. There's Project 2025, the right-wing plan to overturn democracy in America. There's the constant attacks on reproductive rights. There's even Mark Robinson, the MAGA candidate for governor in North Carolina, saying that “some folks need killing”! Democrats might be in the midst of a family debate over our nominee in November, but the most important thing is to ensure that we're united against extremism.This week, we're joined by Emily Amick, a digital media superstar who's on a mission to make civic engagement part of self-care. Along with Sami Sage, she's the co-author of a new book called Democracy in Retrograde: How to Make Changes Big and Small in Our Country and in Our Lives. Emily tells us how in the heck politics can feel like self care and how we can make a real difference in our communities by stepping up and getting involved.Finally, Rachel, Amanda and Jasmine raise a glass to the people of Arkansas and Ohio, to spending the 4th of July with community, and to good election results across the world in this week's Toast to Joy.If you have questions about Project 2025 and what's at stake, we invite you to join us at a virtual event with Heather Cox Richardson on Monday, July 15 at 7:00pm Eastern. You can learn more and RSVP here.For a transcript of this episode, please email theswppod@redwine.blue. You can learn more about us at www.redwine.blue or follow us on social media!

What a Creep (Replay!) Season 20, Episode 7George Washington and the Tale of Ona JudgeGeorge Washington is the “Father of Our Country” and one of American history's most revered Founding Fathers. We heard tales of how brave he was and that he could not tell a lie. He also famously refused to create a fiefdom with the office of President, which means we are not stuck with someone in office unless they are duly elected. Like many white people of his time, he enslaved people. This is a fact, and though not unusual in his peer group--it's not a great look for a person who is enshrined all across the United States. People want to downplay his racism and evil acts. Listening to Bill Maher and Elon Musk minimize his actions made us realize we need to dive into one of the first President's most heinous acts by talking about badass Ona Judge. An enslaved woman who escaped from the President's home and remained free despite his relentless pursuit of her. This woman is an American hero whom everyone who truly believes in liberty and freedom needs to learn about and memorialize her contribution to history.

A senior official in the Department of Homeland Security tells FOX News that nearly four hundred migrants crossed the Southern border with help from an ISIS-affiliated smuggling ring. DHS says that they believe it is more of a network taking advantage of migrants wanting to enter the U-S and not a terror operation. Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas at a briefing with reporters to tout decreasing numbers of illegal crossings said the report was 'incorrect' but didn't not offer details on why he feels that way. FOX's Eben Brown speaks with Charles Marino, former advisor to the DHS Secretary Janet Napolitano, Chief Executive Officer of Sentinel, and author of 'Terrorists on the Border and in Our Country', about the report and the level of concern we could have about a terrorist threat at the border.
