Washington keeps promising results. But when it comes to the Save America Act, I’m calling it exactly what it is: dead on arrival. But before we even get into the bill itself, there was one moment that exposed everything. Senator John Cornyn let something slip in a comment that most people completely missed. It wasn’t shouted. It wasn’t dramatic. In fact, it was almost brushed aside in the interview. But if you listen closely, that one remark reveals the truth about what’s really happening behind closed doors in Washington. Grant breaks down the line that slipped past the media and explains why that single comment tells you the Save America Act is going nowhere. Today on Stinchfield, Grant makes the blunt declaration that many in Washington won’t say out loud. The Save America Act isn’t stalled because of procedure. It’s stalled because the political will simply isn’t there. Despite the speeches, press releases, and social media posts claiming momentum, the truth is the bill is stuck in the swamp and not moving an inch. Grant breaks down why leadership knows it can’t pass, why lawmakers are quietly backing away from it, and how the entire process has become more about political theater than real results. If conservatives are serious about saving the country, Grant argues, they’ll have to stop pretending this bill is the solution and start demanding something that can actually get across the finish line. The reality is simple. Washington is great at talking about saving America. Passing legislation to actually do it is another story entirely.

Passing the SAVE America Act remains the President's top legislative priority. But with Democrats largely opposed to the voter requirements bill, pressure is mounting on Senate Republicans to alter filibuster rules to secure its passage. Senate leadership, however, has warned that such a high-risk gamble may backfire on the party in the future. FOX News Chief Congressional Correspondent Chad Pergram joins the Rundown to unpack the opposition to the SAVE Act and the debate over reforming the filibuster. He also breaks down the recent developments in the Epstein investigation and the ongoing partial shutdown of the Department of Homeland Security. Later, former Vice President and founder of Advancing American Freedom, Mike Pence, joins to discuss his support for Operation Epic Fury and to address concerns raised by both Democrats and some members of the MAGA movement regarding the conflict.

In this deeply meaningful episode of Interviews with Innocence, we welcome Brooke Grove—a complex trauma survivor-thriver, near-death experiencer, former psychotherapist, author, and multidisciplinary integrative healer working in co-creation with Spirit. Brooke's journey bridges both the scientific and spiritual worlds. With advanced degrees in Clinical Psychology, Marital and Family Therapy, and Clinical Art Therapy, she spent years working within traditional psychotherapy before being called into a more expansive path of healing that integrates consciousness, energy medicine, and spiritual guidance. Her work today draws from an extraordinary range of training and experience, including Shamanic Energy Medicine, Quantum Fieldwork, Transpersonal Neuroscience, trauma-informed psychedelic therapy, and psychedelic-assisted integration. Through this multidimensional approach, Brooke helps people explore, transmute, and transform deeply rooted emotional and energetic patterns. During our conversation, Brooke shares how profound life experiences—including trauma and a near-death experience—expanded her understanding of consciousness and opened the door to a deeper partnership with Spirit in her healing work. We also explore the emerging field of psychedelic-assisted healing and the importance of ethical guidance, integration, and spiritual awareness when navigating expanded states of consciousness. In a very personal moment during the episode, I share how Brooke supported me during the passing of my beloved labradoodle, Daisy. Her compassion, presence, and spiritual perspective brought comfort during a tender and emotional time, reminding me that healing and connection often appear when we need them most. This episode is a beautiful exploration of resilience, spiritual awakening, and the ways we can transform life's most challenging moments into opportunities for growth, compassion, and deeper connection. Brooke's upcoming memoir, The Beauty in the Broken Glass, shares her powerful story of trauma, transcendence, and the journey toward healing and light.

I still can't believe what we just witnessed. On March 10, 2026, Bam Adebayo didn't just have a career night—like it or not, he rewrote the NBA record books. Scoring 83 points against the Wizards to officially pass Kobe Bryant's legendary 81 and sit right next to Wilt Chamberlain is something I never saw coming.In today's episode of Buffed Up Sports, I'm breaking down:The Historical Context: How Bam managed to put himself in the same conversation as Wilt Chamberlain's 100-point game.The "Ethical Hoops" Debate: 36 free throws?! We have to talk about whether this was a "pure" scoring clinic or if the whistle was a bit too friendly.Why Bam? Out of all the superstars in the league—Luka, Wemby, Ant—why was the Heat's defensive anchor the one to finally break Kobe's mark?Who is Next? Now that the seal is broken on the 80s, who is the next player to realistically threaten Wilt's 100?The A'ja Wilson Effect: With A'ja courtside witnessing history, I discuss if we're about to see her replicate this kind of dominance in the upcoming WNBA season.This was a night for the ages. Whether you think it was "ethical" or not, 83 points is 83 points.Drop a comment below: Do you think Bam's 83 is more impressive than Kobe's 81? And who do you think is hitting 80 next?#BamAdebayo #NBA #KobeBryant #83Points #MiamiHeat #WNBA #AjaWilson #BasketballHistory #BuffedUpSports
Tamy Bell's son Griffin was born 3 months prematurely in June of 2017 and 16 months later was diagnosed with Neuroblastoma in September of 2018. Griffin relapsed on two occasions after that but then in April of 2023, had a 3rd relapse that was more severe as his cancer had spread to his orbital bone. This relapse took away any realistic hope of further treatment that would help Griffin, and he passed away on March 18th of 2024, 3 months before his 7th birthday,

By refusing to pay for guard help, the Giants may preserve cap flexibility for the rest of free agency, but they also risk leaving a major weakness on the offensive line underfunded while forcing themselves into bargain-basement shopping. Is this the wrong bet if Big Blue still has too many holes to trust cheap fixes? And if they are already near the bottom of their budget, was passing on mid-tier guard help a bad priority in the first place?Follow on Spotify so you don't miss the next Giants reaction. If you listen on Apple Podcasts, please drop a 5-star rating and review.Drew and Rob spend most of this episode going at the biggest debate from Day 3 of Giants free agency: why are the Giants suddenly acting like they're out of money, and could this plan backfire? That is the heart of the show. They react to the report that New York is no longer willing to pay mid-tier guard money, question why a team with obvious holes would choose this route, and break down what it means if the Giants are now stuck shopping in the bargain aisle. The real tension here is simple: saving money keeps options open, but it can also leave the line and the roster overall without the kind of proven help this team still needs. They go through which cheaper veterans still make sense, what positions should be prioritized if the next deals have to be modest, and whether this front office is putting too much faith in coaching and low-cost fliers instead of fixing the problem directly.Evan Neal's one-year minimum return becomes part of that same argument. Is bringing him back a smart no-risk flier, or is it another example of betting on hope when the Giants need answers? The episode also hits a few remaining free-agent fits, Cam Skattebo's rehab progress, and the growing feeling that Big Blue may already be closer to draft mode than fans expected. What would you have done instead if you were running this team right now?Merch: https://2giantgoofballs-shop.fourthwall.com/ Support: https://buymeacoffee.com/2giantgoofballs All episodes: https://2giantgoofballs.buzzsprout.com/Send a textSupport the show

Former drug kingpin George Day was sentenced to one of the harshest punishments imaginable: life in federal prison plus 90 years. What followed was nearly two decades inside some of the toughest federal prisons in America — fighting appeals, navigating prison politics, and trying to survive a sentence that was supposed to mean he would die behind bars. In this episode, George tells the unbelievable story of his time inside the federal system after being convicted in a controversial case built largely on witness testimony rather than physical evidence. Despite multiple trials and legal battles, he was ultimately convicted and given a life sentence plus additional decades, sending him deep into the federal prison system. Behind bars, George faced the brutal reality of a life sentence — violent prison yards, powerful inmates, and the mental weight of knowing he might never see freedom again. At one point he describes himself as a “dead man walking,” preparing for the possibility that prison would be where his life ended. But George refused to give up. While incarcerated, he continued fighting his case, studying the law, filing appeals, and working through the courts for years. Against overwhelming odds, his persistence eventually paid off. After nearly two decades in prison, his case was revisited and he ultimately received clemency in 2021 under the First Step Act, allowing him to finally walk free. In this interview, George shares: • What it's like to receive life plus 90 years in federal court • The psychological toll of serving a life sentence • The dangerous reality of federal prison yards • How inmates survive when they know they may never get out • Fighting appeals from behind bars for nearly two decades • The legal battle that eventually led to his release • The moment he learned he was finally going home This is the story of a man who went from facing life behind bars to walking out of prison nearly 20 years later. A raw, firsthand look at the federal prison system, long sentences, and the fight for freedom.

In Episode 34 DDSWTNP sit down for a revelatory talk with Tom LeClair, a founding critic in the study of DeLillo, his longtime friend and liaison to the literary world, and a figure who has both written fiction shaped by DeLillo's and (he suggests) seen his own stories turned into scenes and dialogue by DeLillo himself. We get into LeClair's relationship with DeLillo going back more than forty years, starting from the time the author sent him a copy of Ratner's Star and proceeding to a 1979 interview in Athens that illuminated a then rather reclusive and secretive writer, including the story behind a card DeLillo handed out in those years reading “I don't want to talk about it.” We also ask LeClair questions about his many readings of DeLillo's and others' works over the years, starting from his major books In the Loop: Don DeLillo and the Systems Novel (1987) and The Art of Excess: Mastery in Contemporary American Fiction (1989), studies that initiated LeClair's career-long examination of encyclopedic works that form categories of “systext,” “monsterpiece,” and others he has defined in his many major magazine and newspaper reviews and in his current substack. What does LeClair make of the many mentions of “systems” in Underworld? What does a line from Point Omega suggest to him about the possibility someday of a DeLillo biography? What does LeClair mean when he calls DeLillo a thoroughly “intuitive” writer and an artist obsessed his whole life with embodiment, birth, death, and fear? Is “mystery” the right word for what drives DeLillo's narrative seeking, and is Catholicism a useful lens? What to make of the ending of Zero K? Why did DeLillo want to visit Beirut with LeClair? And what do these two talk about when they have lunch together? The interview also gets into depth on the many comparisons LeClair sees with his own fiction, its set of Kierkegaardian maneuvers through the Greece-based world of basketball player Michael Keever, the hero of Passing Off (1996) who begins for LeClair a series of examinations of games, terrorism, and some familiar DeLillo territory that extends through the four other Passing novels that LeClair has published in the thirty years since.

Can a grid operator tell the difference between a virtual power plant and a traditional one? That's the idea behind the Huels Test, a framework developed by EnergyHub to answer a simple but consequential question: when does a distributed fleet of customer devices become reliable enough to function like a power plant? Passing the test means more than just aggregating thermostats or batteries. It means delivering predictable, repeatable performance that utility planners and operators trust enough to rely on during system peaks. And it's no longer theoretical. During a series of brutal winter cold snaps across the Southeast this year, Duke Energy leaned on tens of thousands of connected devices — smart thermostats, batteries, and water heaters — to help manage record-breaking winter peaks. Together, they formed a virtual power plant that the utility could dispatch when the grid was tight. In this Frontier Forum, Stephen Lacey talks with Stacy Phillips, Managing Director of Customer Load Management at Duke Energy, and Seth Frader-Thompson, president and co-founder of EnergyHub, about the spectrum of virtual power plants. They discuss how VPPs are evolving from traditional demand-response programs into operational grid resources, and what still needs to change before utilities treat them exactly like conventional power plants. This conversation was recorded live as part of Latitude Media's Frontier Forum with EnergyHub. Watch the full video here. EnergyHub works with more than 160 utilities across North America to build and scale virtual power plants using its Edge DERMS platform. Read EnergyHub's white paper outlining the VPP maturity model and discover what VPPs can do for your grid.
Are we living in a computer simulation? What once sounded like science fiction is now a serious conversation happening at the intersection of quantum physics, artificial intelligence, and the nature of consciousness. In this episode, Dr. JC Doornick sits down once again with MIT-educated computer scientist, entrepreneur, and author of The Simulation Hypothesis, Rizwan Virk. Together they explore one of the most provocative questions of our time: is reality truly fundamental—or is it more like a rendered environment generated by deeper layers of information? Rather than treating simulation theory as sensational speculation, Riz brings a disciplined and thoughtful approach that bridges modern science, ancient philosophy, and emerging technology. The conversation moves beyond the basics of simulation theory into deeper territory—examining consciousness as a potential user interface for reality, the difference between living like a Player versus an NPC, and how artificial intelligence may be accelerating humanity toward what some call the “Simulation Point.” Along the way, Dr. JC introduces a fascinating perspective from quantum physics—the Higgs Field—suggesting that even the space between objects is alive with energy, a kind of hidden dancer giving matter its appearance. If everything we experience is patterned energy at different densities, what does that mean for our attempt to understand reality itself? Most importantly, the conversation tackles the question that matters most to everyday life: if this is a simulation, does our suffering, purpose, and joy still matter? Whether you're curious about simulation theory, fascinated by consciousness, or simply wondering what it means to truly be present in your own life, this episode invites you to explore the possibility that reality may be far stranger—and more meaningful—than we ever imagined.

In this episode of The Consummate Athlete Podcast, Peter and Molly answer listener questions on: • How to maintain endurance fitness while focusing on other sports like Brazilian jiu-jitsu, soccer, or strength training • What endurance tests (like Zone 2 or MAF tests) can tell you about your aerobic fitness—and what they can't • Why heart rate and power don't always improve at the same rate during base training • Mountain bike racing etiquette: when to let riders pass, when to hold your line, and how tactics play into racing dynamics
Amanda Duling is an endurance athlete, writer, and founder of One Gear Short of Normal™. A post-bariatric, perimenopausal gravel cyclist and Ironman 70.3 finisher, Amanda uses grit, science, and unapologetic humour to tell the stories no one else is telling about endurance sports, women's bodies, and doing hard things later in life. Through her writing and community work, she challenges the "suffer in silence" culture of endurance athletics and advocates for smarter fueling, better hygiene, realistic training, and radical honesty—especially for women navigating menopause, major weight loss, and endurance sport at the same time. When she's not riding gravel roads or lifting heavy things, Amanda writes research-backed, laugh-out-loud essays on endurance life, parenting, and why choosing your hard matters more than perfection. *** New episodes of the Tough Girl Podcast drop every Tuesday at 7 AM (UK time)!

Listen Up Irish Reading ChallengeA Conversation with Listen Up Irish Founders Patricia Nic Eoin & Joe Ó FáthartaSeason 2 – Episode #1In the first episode of Season 2 of The Language Question, host Finghin Mac Cárthaigh (Flor McCarthy) speaks with Patricia Nic Eoin and Joe Ó Fátharta, founders of the Listen Up Irish Reading Challenge.Together they explore how reading in Irish (Gaeilge) can open powerful new pathways into the language while deepening our connection to place, identity and cultural heritage.Patricia and Joe share the story behind Listen Up Irish, an initiative that brings together Irish language learners and fluent speakers through literature. Their work encourages adults learning Irish to rediscover the language through storytelling, books and shared reading experiences.Throughout the conversation, they reflect on the emotional resonance of Irish words tied to landscapes, family history and local traditions, reminding us that Irish is not simply a school subject but a living language connected to culture and belonging.This episode explores:The power of storytelling in the Irish languageHow reading can accelerate language learningThe role of community in sustaining and revitalising GaeilgeIf you are learning Irish as an adult or reconnecting with the language later in life, this conversation offers both inspiration and practical insight.Podcast NotesRediscovering Irish Through ReadingPatricia Nic Eoin and Joe Ó Fátharta discuss the origins of the Listen Up Irish Reading Challenge, created to give learners a welcoming space to experience Irish language literature in an accessible way.Their approach encourages readers to explore modern Irish writing, moving beyond classroom learning into real, living language.Language, Landscape and BelongingPatricia describes the joy she feels when rediscovering Irish words associated with the fields and landscapes where she grew up.Collecting old place-names, expressions and family vocabulary creates a powerful sense of continuity with previous generations. For many learners, Irish becomes a way of reconnecting with heritage and place.Passing on the Joy of GaeilgePatricia speaks about the excitement — even “giddiness” — that comes from uncovering forgotten Irish words.Through her teaching and her work with Listen Up Irish, she hopes to pass that same sense of discovery to learners who may not have grown up speaking the language but feel drawn to it.Community and Shared LearningJoe Ó Fátharta reflects on the importance of community in Irish language learning.Initiatives like Listen Up Irish allow learners to read, discuss and enjoy Irish texts together, transforming the language into something lived and shared rather than simply studied.Opening the Door to Irish LiteratureThe episode highlights the richness of contemporary Irish-language writing. While many associate Irish literature with historical texts, there is today a vibrant and growing community of modern writers and readers working in Gaeilge.Reading Irish literature strengthens language skills while also deepening understanding of Ireland's cultural and literary traditions.Master Irish — One Story at a TimeA Three-Week Immersive Irish ChallengeThe Listen Up Irish team are launching a three-week immersive challenge for adult learners, designed to help participants build confidence reading, listening and thinking in Irish through story.Maybe you've started learning Irish before —read a few chapters or downloaded an app —and then lost momentum.This challenge is designed to help you keep going and finish.The Story: Ó Am go hAmDuring the challenge, participants will read Ó Am go hAm (From Time to Time) — a historical story set during a Viking raid on an Irish monastery in the 8th century.Through the story, you'll explore the world of monks, manuscripts and Viking invasions, while experiencing Irish used naturally in context.Originally written for younger readers, the book works beautifully for adult learners, offering accessible but authentic Irish.Participants receive:Guided audio recordingsKey vocabulary supportA clear structure to stay motivatedThis approach allows learners to experience real storytelling — living Irish on the page, not textbook Irish.Early Bird Pricing available until March 12Register here:Early Bird PriceFree Irish Learning ResourcesIf you enjoyed this episode and want to continue your Irish language journey, you can access free Irish learning resources, receive updates on upcoming episodes, and get exclusive content.Sign up here: ResourcesYou can also follow my writing on Substack:SubstackMore on Patricia Nic Eoin & Joe Ó FáthartaPatricia Nic EoinPatricia Nic Eoin is an Irish language teacher, author and advocate for adult Irish learners.She is the founder of All About Irish, an online platform that teaches people to speak Irish (Gaeilge) through live online classes, with programmes for learners from complete beginners to advanced speakers.Patricia is also the co-founder of Listen Up Irish, a reading challenge created with Joe Ó Fátharta to bring learners and fluent speakers together through Irish literature.Learn more: WebsiteInstagram: InstagramJoe Ó FáthartaJoe Ó Fátharta is a journalist, writer, Irish language advocate and lecturer from Connemara.He teaches Irish at Dublin City University (DCU) and has long been involved in promoting Irish language culture through journalism, media and education.

The dominant structural shift identified centers on liability allocation and governance in the context of agentic AI deployment across IT and managed services. The episode underscores how automation is moving beyond content generation to direct operational and security actions, referencing technology from OpenAI (GPT-5.3 Instant), Anthropic (Claude Marketplace), Google Workspace CLI, Microsoft's SharePoint AI features, and Hexnode's Genie AI. Vendors are embedding AI deeper into productivity and endpoint infrastructure, increasing both operational efficiency and the risk footprint—making governance, reliability, and accountability the new competitive differentiators. The most consequential development highlighted is the industry-wide disconnect between rapid AI remediation adoption and lagging governance. According to Omdia, 88% of organizations are using AI-driven remediation, but only 44% have implemented it for most exposure types, and nearly half (49%) of security teams lack trust in these systems. IBM data shows that 63% of organizations lack formal AI incident response policies, meaning deployment often outpaces the development of auditability and risk management. This creates a landscape where automated decisions are taken at scale without clear accountability structures or incident protocols. Supporting developments reinforce these governance and risk concerns. Reports of cognitive fatigue—termed “AI brain fry”—affecting over 14% of users (Boston Consulting Group/UC Riverside) and a 39% increase in error rates among those affected, point to compounding human and system risk when automation outpaces oversight. Market analysis from Accenture, Wharton, and the Dallas Fed notes that AI has shifted skill demand, displaced younger tech workers, and pressured traditional fixed-fee business models. Meanwhile, vendors are migrating from predictable per-seat pricing to variable token-based consumption, passing operational uncertainty onto MSPs and their clients. For MSPs, IT service providers, and technology leaders, the practical implications are clear. Failure to implement explicit governance, contract clauses, and incident protocols exposes providers to unpredictable liability. Passing through ungoverned consumption costs under fixed-contracts damages margins as AI use expands. The increasing cognitive load on staff supervising partially trusted automation further compounds operational risk. As the pricing model shifts, providers must negotiate new contract terms, institute AI incident playbooks, audit tool autonomy, and manage the blast radius of AI with the same rigor as legacy security controls. 00:00 Platform Land Grab 03:56 Who Owns Failure 07:27 Skills Over Titles 09:52 Why Do We Care?

Ole Miss quarterback Trinidad Chambliss emerges as the frontrunner to lead the SEC in combined passing and rushing yards—can anyone catch him? Heisman buzz intensifies as Brian Smith analyzes Chambliss's obvious motivation–considering the NCAA's eligibility court case–the improved Rebels defense, and offensive firepower. Auburn's Byrum Brown, Texas's Arch Manning, Georgia's Gunner Stockton, and Alabama's Austin Mack enter the conversation with projections that spark debate over each team's schedule difficulty and the impact of returning grad transfers. Brian Smith ranks the top SEC quarterbacks, spotlighting key factors like injury concerns for LSU's Sam Leavitt, post-snap reading improvement for Texas A&M's Marcel Reid, and Oklahoma's offensive line upgrades for Jon Mateer. Is Texas poised to dominate so thoroughly that Manning's stats take a hit? Which quarterback will thrive amidst daunting schedules, and how do roster changes shape their prospects? Tune in for a sharp, stats-driven breakdown of the SEC quarterback race. Everydayer Club If you never miss an episode, it's time to make it official.

What happens when you stop chasing commissions and start obsessing over service, systems, and solving problems before they explode? In this episode of the Real Estate Excellence Podcast, Tracy Hayes sits down with Megan Jernigan shares how she built a high performing real estate business in Nashville by committing to service, discipline, and relentless follow through. She explains that strong vendor relationships are not about perks or kickbacks, but about responsiveness, trust, and doing what is best for the client every single time. She also opens up about leaving the security of a corporate path, betting on herself in real estate, and working with a failure is not an option mindset until the business gained momentum. The conversation goes deep into the systems behind her success. Megan talks about why year three is a make or break point for many agents, how her assistant became a true accountability partner, and why a team only works when the right people are on the bus. She also breaks down what she looks for in agents, why organization matters, how thoughtful prospecting beats box checking, and why the real payoff in this business comes from serving people so well that referrals become inevitable. If this episode challenged the way you think about growth, leadership, and client service, share it with another agent who needs to hear it, follow the show, and connect with Megan Jernigan through the show notes to keep the conversation going. Highlights 00:00 - 08:20 Client First Vendor Relationships Why Megan avoids gifts and personal perks Passing savings directly to clients Choosing vendors based on trust and speed Why response time matters in a transaction Making sure everyone involved truly cares 08:21 - 27:20 From Corporate Work To Real Estate Her early career path before real estate Feeling boxed in by traditional roles Why she wanted more ownership and freedom Taking the risk to bet on herself Building confidence through hard work 27:21 - 40:59 The Year Three Breakthrough Why year three is a key test for agents Moving from survival mode to stability Building momentum through consistency Hiring help earlier than expected Creating accountability that drives growth 41:00 - 49:39 Building The Right Team Why adding people needs real purpose Creating systems that support service Finding people who can adapt and grow Protecting culture as the business expands Getting the right people on the bus 49:40 - 01:11:46 Prospecting And Market Strategy Using broker opens with intention Hosting open houses in target areas Building local knowledge and credibility Prospecting with purpose instead of habit Using marketing to attract more listings 01:11:47 - 01:15:34 Service As The Real Advantage Solving problems before they get bigger Looking ahead for clients at every step Reducing stress during the transaction Hiring people who care about service Why strong service creates long term success Quotes: "I know I'm a great problem solver and I just thought if I can just work eight days a week.

The Alliance for Civics in the Academy hosted "How Can Universities Strengthen Civic Education in K–12 Schools?" with Jennifer McNabb, Joshua Dunn, and Jenna Storey on March 4, 2026, from 9:00-10:00 a.m. PT. Universities are increasingly reexamining their role as incubators of effective citizenship. An essential yet often overlooked part of this work is strengthening K–12 civic education. This webinar explores how efforts within higher education can support civic learning in K–12 schools, with particular emphasis on the academy's role in training the next generation of educators. ABOUT THE SPEAKERS Meira Levinson is a political theorist/philosopher of education who is working to start a global field of educational ethics that is philosophically rigorous, disciplinarily and experientially inclusive, and both relevant to and informed by educational policy and practice. In doing so, she draws upon scholarship from multiple disciplines as well as her eight years of experience teaching middle school humanities, civics, history, and English in the Atlanta and Boston Public Schools. Meira has written or co-edited nine books, including Civic Contestation in Global Education and Educational Equity in a Global Context (both 2024, with Ellis Reid, Tatiana Geron, and Sara O'Brien), Instructional Moves for Powerful Teaching in Higher Education (2023, co-authored with Jeremy Murphy), Democratic Discord in Schools (2019, with Jacob Fay), winner of the 2020 AERA Moral Development and Education SIG Outstanding Book Award, and Dilemmas of Educational Ethics (2016, with Jacob Fay). Her book No Citizen Left Behind (2012) won awards in political science, philosophy, social studies, and education and has been translated into Chinese and Japanese. Meira shares educational ethics resources on JusticeinSchools.org, materials to support K-12 educators working in politically charged environments at Educational Values in Action, and resources for youth activists and teacher allies at YouthinFront.org. Each of these projects reflects Levinson's commitment to achieving productive cross-fertilization — without loss of rigor — among scholarship, policy, and practice. Meira earned a B.A. in philosophy from Yale and a D.Phil. in politics from Nuffield College, Oxford University. Her work has been supported by fellowships from Guggenheim, the Edmond & Lily Safra Center for Ethics at Harvard, Harvard Radcliffe Institute, and the National Academy of Education. Prior to joining the Stanford faculty, Meira taught at the Harvard Graduate School of Education. Jennifer McNabb is Professor and Head of the Department of History at the University of Northern Iowa, where she teaches courses on early modern European history and the history of England. She was Co-Chair of UNI's Civic Education Task Force, which created UNI's Center for Civic Education, and she was Co-PI for a National Endowment for the Humanities Connections Grant that developed UNI's first civic education curriculum: "Civic Literacy, Engagement and the Humanities." McNabb is also a Co-PI of a national grant that will establish the Iowa Civic Educators Institute, providing professional development opportunities for in-service and pre-service social studies and history teachers throughout the state. McNabb has received several awards for her teaching and has completed four courses for The Teaching Company's The Great Courses on the Renaissance, witchcraft, sex, and marriage. She currently serves as a Councilor in the Professional Division of the American Historical Association and as president of the Midwest Conference on British Studies. Joshua Dunn (PhD, University of Virginia) serves as Executive Director of the Institute of American Civics at the Howard H. Baker School of Public Policy and Public Affairs at the University of Tennessee, Knoxville. His research and teaching focus on constitutional law and history, education policy, federalism, and freedom of speech and religion. His books include Complex Justice: The Case of Missouri v. Jenkins (University of North Carolina Press), From Schoolhouse to Courthouse: The Judiciary's Role in American Education (Brookings Institution Press) and Passing on the Right: Conservative Professors in the Progressive University (Oxford University Press). Moderator Jenna Silber Storey is the Ravenel Curry Chair in Civic Thought in the Social, Cultural, and Constitutional Studies Division of the American Enterprise Institute, and Co-Director of AEI's Center for the Future of the American University. She is also an SNF Agora Fellow at Johns Hopkins University and a Research Fellow at the Civitas Institute at the University of Texas at Austin. She previously taught political philosophy at Furman University, where she was an Assistant Professor in the Department of Politics and International Affairs, and Executive Director of Furman's Tocqueville Program. Her writing has appeared in outlets such as The New York Times, The Washington Post, The Wall Street Journal, The Boston Globe, The Chronicle of Higher Education, Inside Higher Ed, First Things, and The National Endowment for the Humanities flagship journal, Humanities.

Is your family tree a bit... messy? If you feel like your life is full of sibling rivalry, deception, or "unanswered" prayers, you are in good company. From the tents of Isaac and Rebekah to the wrestling match at Peniel, the story of Jacob proves that God doesn't call perfect people—He transforms people who are willing to hold on until they receive a blessing. Summary: In this massive study of Genesis 24–36, we follow the Covenant through three generations of trials, travels, and transformations. We look past the "Sunday School" versions of these stories to see the grit and grace required to stay on the Covenant Path. Finding Rebekah: We analyze the decisiveness of Rebekah in Genesis 24—a woman who was willing to leave everything she knew for a promise she hadn't seen yet. The Birthright Conflict: We dive into the controversial "deception" of Isaac. Was it a trick, or was Rebekah ensuring God's will was done? We explore the heavy price of prioritizing the temporal over the eternal. Jacob's Ladder: We break down the symbolism of the "stairway to heaven" at Bethel and how Jacob turned a cold stone pillow into a temple-like encounter with the Divine. Leah and Rachel: We discuss the years of labor and the "comparative" heartbreak of Leah and Rachel, seeing how God remembers those who feel unloved. Wrestling with God: We finish with the most pivotal moment in Jacob's life—his night-long wrestle. We learn that "Israel" means "Let God Prevail" and discover how we can also prevail through our trials. Call-to-Action: Jacob had to return to "Bethel" to find his way again. Where is your "Bethel"? Where do you go when you need to remember your covenants? Let's discuss in the comments!

Sal Gilbertie, chief executive officer at Teucrium Trading — which runs commodity-oriented ETFs — says that war in the Middle East will have mostly short- and medium-term impacts on markets, commodities and inflation, noting that "If you're not already long energy, you're taking a pretty big risk by buying it now." He says he will be watching fertilizer prices — because Iran is a large producer of urea, a key ingredient in fertilizers — expecting to see some inflationary pressures, but he thinks that, too, will pass quickly. Teucrium also runs crypto funds and Gilbertie also gives his take on how leading currencies will get through the current "crypto winter." With current events in the Middle East impacting his thinking, Todd Rosenbluth, head of research at VettaFi, turns to a large-cap, low-volatility index fund for the "ETF of the Week," noting that the fund may not be the highest of flyers but it has a history of softening the blow of market downturns and troubles. Rod Yancy, founder of the Oath Money and Meaning Institute, discusses research which found that healthcare costs — premium, prescriptions, long-term care and more — are the top financial worry of American retirees entering 2026, but which also showed that a solid majority of retirees have a positive outlook this year despite current economic and geopolitical concerns. Plus, Chuck answers a listener's question about using artificial intelligence to improve personal portfolio results.
Marc Cox interviews Cleta Mitchell, Senior Legal Fellow at the Conservative Partnership Institute, about the urgent push to bring the Save America Act to a Senate vote. Mitchell outlines how the bill enforces proof of citizenship for voter registration, requires photo ID for all voting methods, and mandates submission of voter rolls to DHS for verification. She critiques Senate inaction, explains the mechanics of the talking filibuster, and urges public pressure on senators to support the legislation. The conversation highlights widespread voter roll vulnerabilities, citing examples like dead voters and non-citizens, emphasizing the need for election integrity reforms nationwide.

"I ran across an article listing musicians who are in both the Rock and the Country Halls of Fame. There aren't many. When I started looking into it further I found that the people on the list were in multiple other Halls of Fame as well. I wanted to find out what musician is in the most Halls. There is a clear winner."

Why cant we get the SAVE act passed or insider trading banned? It’s not just the illegal immigrants who are the problem. Mass migration doesn’t all of a sudden become wonderful just because its legal.
