Just in time for #BlackHistoryMonth #theegalenjwilliams out here converting ebonics to polite 18th-century gathering....Bahaha! The Count of Monte Cristo is being revisited by African American readers, who see it as a story of survival and excellence in a world designed to erase them. The book's themes of betrayal, political turmoil, and the pursuit of justice resonate with the experiences of black professionals navigating systemic barriers. The upcoming PBS adaptation and a Pulitzer Prize-winning biography of Dumas are fueling a cultural reclamation of his heritage and a deeper appreciation for the novel's complexities.

Editors - Arthur Tarnowski ACE, CCE and Véronique Barbe CCE After years of working in different cutting rooms across Montreal, Heated Rivalry editors Arthur Tarnowski and Véronique Barbe are finally skating on the same line for showrunner Jacob Tierney. But bringing the "spicy" subject matter of Rachel Reid's book series to tv audiences would be no small feat. It required the editors to find the right balance of tension, chemistry and character within and around the steamy sexual encounters of the shows main characters. Heated Rivalry follows the lives of two budding hockey superstars, Canadian Shane Hollander and Russian Ilya Rozanov.  Before becoming pro hockey players, the two meet as competitors at an international hockey competition.  Six months later they would be drafted by two rival teams, the Montreal Metros and the Boston Raiders.  Although their on-ice rivalry is amplified by media coverage and public perception, the two develop a private, initially casual sexual relationship that continues intermittently over several years as they pursue their hockey careers.  Keeping this relationship hidden from the world is a challenge greater than either would ever have on the ice. ARTHUR TARNOWSKI ACE, CCE Arthur Tarnowski is an award-winning editor who grew up loving James Bond and Ingmar Bergman films (thank you PBS). Editor of over 40 features, in both English and French, his eclectic filmography encompasses everything from broad comedies like the Canadian box-office hits Father and Guns 2 and Compulsive Liar to auteur cinema like Drunken Birds (Canada's Academy Awards submission, 2022), Kidnapping Inc.(Sundance 2024; Haiti's Academy Awards submission, 2026), Irena's Vow (TIFF 2023) and The Hummingbird Project(TIFF 2018). He also enjoys cutting action pictures such as Deadfall (Tribeca 2013), Brick Mansions and The Decline. His television work includes The Sticky, DMV, 19-2, Bad Blood, Being Human, The Art of More, and The Moody's. He has also created trailers for over 150 films. His most recent project, Heated Rivalry—a Crave/HBO series created with frequent collaborator writer-director Jacob Tierney—has become a global television phenomenon. VÉRONIQUE BARBE CCE Aside from her work on Heated Rivalry, Vero's credits include HBO's Big Little Lies and Sharp Objects, both directed by Jean‑Marc Vallée — a cherished creative partner and mentor whose impact continues to guide her work. She has edited TV series and films across Canada, the U.S., Europe, and Japan, and has earned nominations from the Emmys, ACE, CCE, and CSA.   Visit Extreme Music for all your production audio needs Check out what's new with Avid Media Composer Subscribe to The Rough Cut podcast and never miss an episode Visit The Rough Cut on YouTube

This week, celebrated singer/songwriter & hometown humorist Antsy McClain with world renowned harp-guitarist Muriel Anderson recorded live at the Ozark Folk Center State Park. Also, interviews with Antsy & Muriel. Antsy McClain brings his unique blend of music and “humor with heart” to the stage, combining his original songs with a hilarious slide show, including Antsy's own life observations, social commentary and imaginary sponsors from his home town trailer park of Pine View Heights. As a master storyteller with the likes of PBS, NPR and TEDTalks under his belt, Antsy includes humorous and serious songs in his shows. Songs such as “One Less Trailer Here in Pine View Heights,” My Baby Whistles When She Walks,” and “The Junk Drawer of Your Heart,” are keenly humorous observations about love and loss, while his more serious songs, like “Field Trip,” “I'm Everyone,” or “Falling in Love in America,” are more akin to personal journal entries written in the act of living. It's this tightrope walk between humor and heart that makes Antsy McClain a true original. - http://unhitched.com/antsys-bio/ One of the world's foremost fingerstyle guitarists and harp-guitarists, Muriel Anderson is the first woman to have won the National Fingerstyle Guitar Championship. Her CD “Nightlight Daylight” was chosen as one of the top 10 CDs of the decade by Guitar Player Magazine her “Heartstrings” recording accompanied the astronauts on the space shuttle Discovery. She has performed/recorded with Chet Atkins, Les Paul, Victor Wooten and the Nashville Chamber Orchestra. Her obvious joy of music, humor and her facility across the genres of folk, classical, jazz, bluegrass and international music is revered by guitarists worldwide. An engaging performer, Muriel's unique approach to the instrument virtually transforms the guitar into a lyrical choir, then a marching band, then a Japanese koto, then a Bluegrass band, one minute launching into a Beatles' tune and the next, a Rodrigo concerto. Her video “Why Worry” has garnered a total of over 8 million views. Muriel is host of the renowned Muriel Anderson's ALL STAR GUITAR NIGHT® and founder of the MUSIC FOR LIFE ALLIANCE charity. - http://murielanderson.com/press/bio/ In this week's “From the Vault” segment, musician, educator, and country music legacy Mark Jones offers an archival recording of Ozark originals Robert & Mary Gillihan performing the traditional song “Banks of the Ohio,” from the Ozark Folk Center State Park archives. Author, folklorist, and songwriter Charley Sandage presents an historical portrait of the people, events, and indomitable spirit of Ozark culture that resulted in the creation of the Ozark Folk Center State Park and its enduring legacy of music and craft. This episode brings us a portrait of the White River Line railroad of the Ozarks, featuring interviews with George Lankford, professor emeritus at Lyon College in Batesville.

The killings of Renee Good and Alex Pretti are called what they really are—lynchings carried out by Trump's armed thugs who were then protected from investigation and sent back out on the streets. A direct line connects decades of right-wing hate radio promising to eliminate liberals to today's fascist violence, explaining why there will be no magical "national awakening" to save us. Never Trump pundits who now support "Defund ICE" after spending years attacking Democrats over "Defund the Police" get dismantled for their hypocrisy, with an explanation of why better messaging won't fix a problem caused by the right's massive propaganda machine. The only path forward is relentless pressure, cutting off money and legitimacy to Republicans, and refusing to forget what they've done when this is over.Cover photo credit: The Library of Congress via PBS.Links for this episode: Driftglass and Bluegal on The Bill Show!  The New Republic: CBP Boss Says He Moved Agents Who Shot Alex Pretti to Avoid “Doxxing” https://newrepublic.com/post/205690/customs-border-protection-cbp-agent-alex-pretti-reassigned Stay in Touch! Email: proleftpodcast@gmail.comWebsite: proleftpod.comSupport via Patreon: patreon.com/proleftpodor Donate in the Venmo App @proleftpodMail: The Professional Left, PO Box 9133, Springfield, Illinois, 62791Support the show

With electricity prices on the rise, the future of our power grid is attracting a lot more attention. Surging demand is at the center of the story, but the power sector is also grappling with supply chain bottlenecks and aging infrastructure – all while trying to balance capacity growth with reducing emissions. This isn't just a technical challenge. Energy affordability and equity are reshaping debates about energy policy, permitting reform, and climate goals.  So, what's really behind rising prices? What are the best ways to balance the need to build capacity with the interests of communities? What role can research play when it comes to steering energy policy? And what lessons can Texas teach us about all of these concerns? Today on the show, Jason Bordoff speaks with Michael Webber about the costs of energy; the challenges of permitting reform; and the need to build more energy faster. Michael Webber is a professor at the University of Texas at Austin. He's the author of multiple books on energy, including Power Trip and Thirst for Power, both of which were adapted into award-winning PBS documentary series. In addition to his academic post, Michael previously served as CTO of the venture fund Energy Impact Partners, and as chief science and technology officer at ENGIE. Note: This conversation was recorded in early December. Credits: Hosted by Jason Bordoff and Bill Loveless. Produced by Mary Catherine O'Connor, Caroline Pitman, and Kyu Lee.

On today's show, host Dana Pellebon is joined by Dr. Jonathan Mathias Lassiter, author of the new book, How I Know White People are Crazy and Other Stories: Notes from a Frustrated Black Psychologist. Dr. Lassiter works in private psychotherapy practice and provides culturally relevant care for marginalized professionals. He is part of the mere 1% of Black male psychologists in the country. His memoir makes the case for better cultural representation in the therapy field and defines the theory of the “whiteness mindset.”  Dr. Lassiter says that he's always been curious about why people do the things they do, and this led him to pursue a career in education followed by a psychotherapy practice. He describes his upbringing and the isolation and microaggressions he experienced in his graduate studies and clinical settings. He noticed that though the clinics he worked in were serving Black and Latinx clients, the vast majority of the therapists were white. And while working in the VA hospital in Indianapolis, he was the only Black male therapist. At that time, he read Toni Morrison's Playing in the Dark: Whiteness in the Literary Imagination and went on to write a corollary essay, “Whiteness in the Psychological Imagination,” that became the seed of his current book.  In How I Know White People are Crazy and Other Stories, Dr. Lassiter uses diagnostic criteria to define “the whiteness mindset” as a way of thinking and being that values materialism, competition, and individualism, which all promote oppression. It's a “distress producing phenomena” that hurts everyone and is making white people sick, he says. They also discuss other concepts in psychology, like “post traumatic slave syndrome” and “black fatigue,” and how Christianity becomes a weapon, especially when it comes to sexuality. Dr. Lassiter says he wants marginalized people, the global majority, to understand that they're not the problem. His future work will focus on the Afro-centric and Indigenous psychologies as pathways to better, more healthy futures. Dr. Jonathan Mathias Lassiter is a licensed clinical psychologist in New York City specializing in culturally informed mental health care for Black, POC, and LGBTQ+ individuals and couples. With a passion to use his Ph.D.for the culture, he serves as a therapist, scientist, educator, author, mental health columnist, on-air mental health expert, and international public speaker. Dr. Lassiter has appeared in such outlets as NBC, PBS, Forbes, Huff Post, Radio NewZealand, SiriusXM, iHeart Radio, and more. Follow Dr. Lassiter on all social media platforms at @lassiterhealth.

Hey, you could use a good fish story today, right? Once upon a time there were these beautiful fish who lived five miles under the ocean. How do I know? They were the subject of a PBS television special. So this is a for real fish story. Now, because these fish are really striking - I mean they are incredibly colorful - some folks thought they might look good in someone's tropical fish aquarium. So they tried to bring these fish to the surface. They didn't make it. They blew up when they got near the surface! They were designed to live under that pressure at the bottom. Well, no happy ending, except they're going to leave the rest of them where they belong - five miles under the ocean because that's where they were created to be! I'm Ron Hutchcraft and I want to have A Word With You today about "Where You Were Born To Be." You know, it really works this way in all of God's creation. There's an environment that things and people were created to be in, and things really work when they're in that place. They really don't work very well when they're not where they were designed to be. Well, thankfully, God makes very clear the environment you and I were created for. So we don't have to waste our lives searching for it, or just waste our lives. In fact, probably the single most important question you have to answer while we're on earth; you know what it is - Why am I here? God answers that question in six simple, but life-changing words in His book, the Bible. Here's our word for today from the Word of God. It's from Colossians 1:16. Speaking about Jesus, it says, "All things were" and here are the six words, "created by Him and for Him." Look, try putting your name in that Biblical statement. Here's your name: "________ (right there, OK?) was created by Jesus and for Jesus." Just like those fish were created to be in the pressure of that deep sea environment, just like the earth was created to be in an orbit around the sun, you were created for Jesus, you were created by Jesus for a relationship with Jesus, where you live for Jesus. When you have this personal relationship with Him, you're finally where you were born to be. Problem: We don't live for the One who gave us our life. We live for ourselves. Again, in God's own words, "All of us have wandered away like sheep; each of us has turned to our own way" (Isaiah 53:6). The Bible has a word for this rebellion of ours - sin - middle letter: I. And it says that our sin separates us from the One we were made by and made for. If we die with that sin-wall there, it's going to be there forever. When those deep-sea fish are outside the environment they were made to live in, they eventually die, and so do we. And some of that dying happens even now as we keep looking for love in places that don't deliver it, looking for some inner peace, some fulfillment in achievements and relationships and experiences that can't possibly give it to us. Because we're not where we were born to be - knowing Jesus, living for the One who gave us our life and who gave His life for us. That's the only way we could ever have a chance to get into the orbit we were created for. All those sins of ours have hell as their penalty - a penalty you and I deserve to pay. A penalty that God's Son paid in our place when He died on the cross. Whether or not you ever experience why you're here, whether or not you ever see heaven depends totally on what you do with what Jesus did for you. His call to you is to put your total trust in Him to be the rescuer from your sin. The moment you do that, the relationship you were born for becomes yours forever. If you want to experience the peace and the wholeness that only a relationship with Jesus can give you, I hope you'll tell Him right now that you want Him to come into your life. And then I hope you'll pay a visit to our website as soon as you can, because there we will help you know how this relationship with Jesus works. It's called ANewStory.com. All those years that you've been away from the One that your heart's been searching for, man, isn't it time to experience the relationship you were made for, and to finally be where you were born to be.

On the Monday Jan. 26 edition: Senator Jon Ossoff is seeking answers about a rumored ICE facility in an Atlanta suburb; The Red Cross warns of a serious blood supply shortage; And the beloved PBS series Antiques Roadshow made a stop in Savannah. 

Welcome back to the studio.  This is My Day of Play, where you're taken into the real events and actions of how it happens long before the process of editing or cleaning up.  The original purpose of these episodes was to give my broadcasting students something to edit, to practice with and to call their own.  Then I realized that you are just as important.  Share the reality of how it really went.  We begin things with true crime podcaster Susan Peters who truly opens our eyes and history books to who and what was the BTK Killer and we aren't talking about a K-pop boy band. Then we're going to spend some valuable time with former speaker of the house Newt Gingrich to talk about his creative project with his wife on PBS. And we'll wrap things up with Amanda Riplery the author of The Unthinkable, who survives when disaster strikes and why? This is My Day of Play.  Completely unedited in the way of meeting the wizard behind the curtain.  Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/arroe-collins-unplugged-totally-uncut--994165/support.

The Sleazy Podcast crew is back and bracing for impact. Sleazy, Mr. PBS, and Robzilla kick things off by staring down the impending snowstorm of 2026 and catching up after a few weeks away. That cozy recap quickly turns spicy when Sleazy breaks down his firsthand experience with TikTok's new user agreement and how one harmless satire video earned the baffling label of “violent extremism.” Algorithms stay wild.Once the snow boots are laced, Robzilla fires up the first official segment with the fan-favorite Zilla's Tubi Pick of the Week, digging up another streaming oddity worth your time. From there, the trio slides into Whatchu Watchin, running down all the movies and shows they've been binging lately.That leads into two spoiler-free reviews. First up, the gang tackles Netflix's new original The Rip, starring Ben Affleck and Matt Damon, breaking down whether the reunion delivers or slips on the ice. Then Sleazy and Mr. PBS dive into 28 Years Later: The Bone Temple, starring Ralph Fiennes, sharing what worked, what didn't, and how it stacks up in the ever-growing infected universe.To close things out and fully embrace the looming Snowmageddon, the guys team up to build their Top 15 Snow Movies list. Cold temps, hot takes, and plenty of cinematic frostbite await. ❄️

Alison and Amanda talk about snowy day sleepovers,  a mom-led mission to trek home, neighborly neglect, and forecasters turned famous.  Sis & Tell, an award-winning weekly comedic podcast, is hosted by southern Jewish sisters the Emmy-nominated Alison Goldstein Lebovitz from PBS' The A List and Time Magazine's 2006 Person of the Year, Comedian Amanda Goldstein Marks.  

The Coffee Sprudgecast celebrates the seventeenth year of Sprudgie Award winners and honorees, presented in partnership with Pacific Barista Series, on this very special episode. Hosts Jordan Michelman and Zachary Carlsen fuel up before getting into it with the help of Klatch Coffees' Valentine's Day offering Aphrodite Nº 3 and the delightful Garden Lemongrass herbal tisane from DONA. The Aphrodite Nº 3, ground using MiiR's sturdy hand grinder and brewed up on the trusty Ceado Hoop Brewer, offers flavor notes fit for the season: subtle florals (elderflower, rose) and nuanced red berry. The Garden Lemongrass herbal tisane, part of DONA's incredible Tea Library collection, kept us grounded and soaring with unmistakable lemongrass goodness. And one more thing... we need to talk about these coffee potato chips. Seattle's Umami Kushi—famous for their okazu pan, delightful snacks, and delicious pop-ups—has been crafting artisan-level potato chips available to purchase at their shop. Umami Kushi teams up with Boon Boona Coffee Roasters for a coffee-forward (but not too forward) BBQ flavored potato chip that's well worth the trip to Rainier Beach. The hosts crunch and munch on the chips, made with a carefully considered blend of spices and just the right about of coffee. The coffee says, "hey I'm here, I'm helping," instead of what it can sometimes do ("hey look at me look at me TASTE ME LOVE ME"). Zachary Carlsen goes out on a limb to say that this is one of the best coffee snacks he's ever had (and trust us, he's had a lot of coffee snacks). Jordan Michelman suggests the classic school lunchroom hack of adding them to a peanut butter and jelly sandwich. And guess what? We did. Give Umami Kushi a follow on Instagram @umamikushi to learn more about their stunning potato chips and where to find them—and thank you, thank you to Umami Kushi for reaching out! Perhaps the 18th Annual Sprudgie Awards will finally feature the category Best Coffee Food. We're looking at you, Umami Kushi, and we're also looking at any brownies with delicious coffee in it—and we're decidedly not looking at you, 2 Affogato. Listen along to learn more about the 17th Annual Sprudgie Awards Presented by Pacific Barista Series, and a very special thank you to PBS for your continued support of this program—ensuring every nomination is free, every vote counted, and every alternative milk exquisite. ❤️ This episode of the Coffee Sprudgecast is sponsored by Baratza, noissue, Ceado, Pacific Barista Series, La Marzocco, and DONA.

Recorded live Jan. 5, 2026, at The Sharon at SouthPark.PBS and public media have been in the spotlight lately — and not in a way anyone asked for. When federal funding for the Corporation for Public Broadcasting was eliminated, NPR and PBS stations across the country faced sudden cuts and hard choices.In this special live episode of The Charlotte Ledger Podcast, Ledger editor Tony Mecia sits down at The Sharon at SouthPark with Amy Burkett, general manager of PBS Charlotte, to talk about what that shift has meant locally — and what it's forcing public media to do differently. Burkett, a former commercial TV reporter and anchor, shares how PBS Charlotte has rebuilt itself since nearly going dark in the early 2010s, how the station is adapting after losing $1.2 million overnight, and why she believes public media is more valuable in an era when trust is harder to come by.They also dig into what PBS does best (history, long-form storytelling, local documentaries), what it struggles to compete on (reality-style programming), and how the station is trying to reach viewers across platforms — from broadcast to Passport streaming to YouTube.Today's episode of The Charlotte Ledger Podcast is sponsored by Child Care Search, a service of Child Care Resources Inc.

Send us a textonight at Providence City Hall, members of the City Council will formally introduce a rent stabilization ordinance aimed at limiting annual rent increases in the city.Supporters argue the proposal is a necessary response to rapidly rising rents, housing insecurity, and displacement in one of the tightest rental markets in the country. Critics warn rent stabilization could discourage new housing construction, reduce investment, and create unintended long-term consequences.In this episode, we're joined by Providence City Councilor Sue AnderBois, a leading proponent of the plan, to walk through what's being proposed, why she believes the policy is needed now, and how the ordinance is designed to balance tenant protections with concerns from landlords and developers.Support the show

My favorite Taurine supplement:https://www.glutenfreesociety.org/shop/health-focus/daily-wellness/ultra-taurine/In today's episode of the Dr. Osborne Zone, Dr. Peter Osborne delves into the amazing health benefits of taurine, an amino acid that plays a critical role in blood pressure regulation, triglyceride reduction, and supporting conditions like congestive heart failure and obesity. Unlike other amino acids, taurine doesn't form proteins but is essential for functions such as calcium regulation, immune support, and even athletic performance. Dr. Osborne explains why taurine is conditionally essential, meaning your body can produce it, but you may need more during times of stress or illness. He also discusses how deficiencies in taurine can impact individuals with gluten sensitivity or celiac disease and the importance of animal-based protein in maintaining healthy taurine levels.Watch the full episode to learn how taurine can improve your metabolic health, insulin sensitivity, and overall well-being!

What if everything you believe about advocacy is incomplete? What if the real work of changing the world isn't just about fixing problems, but about transforming ourselves in the process?That's the heart of the work of Sam Daley-Harris, Founder and Principal of Civic Courage, and author of Reclaiming Our Democracy: Every Citizen's Guide to Transformational Advocacy.This conversation reframes what it means to participate in democracy. It's not just about agonizing or protesting or turning off the news. It's about awakening to our own power and using empathy to bridge divides and build the kind of future we actually want. It's about sharing personal stories, engaging in deep listening and conversation, and making bold asks of leaders and volunteers.To access the episode transcript, go to www.TheEmpathyEdge.com, search by episode title.Listen in for…Why sharing your “story of self” matters and how knowing your why becomes your anchor in meaningful leadership and advocacy.What transformational advocacy truly is, and why it has the power to change both the issues and the advocates themselves.The essential role of empathy in advocacy and the three questions volunteers ask when meeting with an opposing elected official that can turn conflict into connection.Why leaders and organizations must move past their fear of asking volunteers to do big, bold things, because that's where transformation happens. "Transformational advocacy is where you're trained, encouraged, and succeed at doing things as an advocate that you never thought you could do. When you do those kinds of things, you see yourself differently." — Sam Daley-Harris Episode References: Hope for Cynics: The Surprising Science of Human Goodness by Jamil ZakiCitizens Climate LobbyEaarth: Making a Life on a Tough New Planet by Bill McKibbenAbout Sam Daley-Harris, Founder, Civic Courage, and Author, Reclaiming Our Democracy: Sam Daley-Harris started as a symphony musician and then founded the anti-poverty lobby RESULTS in 1980, co-founded the Microcredit Summit Campaign in 1995, and founded Civic Courage in 2012.

Today's episode is a recording of a panel discussion hosted on January 15, 2026 by the Long Island Library Resources Council. The panelists, all notable historians who have researched the Revolutionary War period on Long Island, give their insights into what life was like in the area from 1776-1783. This time of British occupation saw the inhabitants of Kings, Queens, and Suffolk counties suffer depredations brought on by British and Hessian troops as well as by Patriot attacks from across Long Island Sound. You'll hear about the enslaved Black woman Liss from Oyster Bay, about the activities of the Culper Spy Ring, and the experiences of others ranging from British officer John Simcoe to Elizabeth Lewis, wife of Declaration signatory Francis Lewis. The panel itself was funded by a WETA grant awarded to LILRC in support of programming related to the PBS documentary The American Revolution by Ken Burns, Sarah Botstein, and David Schmidt.
