Charles Guiteau was seething. He'd convinced himself that he deserved a political appointment. When he didn't get one, he placed the blame squarely on President James Garfield's shoulders. James Garfield was a liar. A cheat. The country would be better off without him! Over time, Charles convinced himself that God wanted him to assassinate the president. So? He bought a gun. He tracked the president's movements. He shot the President in cold blood.Remember, kids, history hoes always cite their sources! For this episode, Kristin pulled from: The book, “Destiny of the Republic: A Tale of Madness, Medicine, and the Murder of a President,” by Candice MillardThe book, “Dark Horse: The Surprise Election and Political Murder of President James A. Garfield,” by Kenneth D.

Erica Matthews is a dedicated advocate, educator, and entrepreneur based in Pana, Illinois—a small town in Christian County. She's best known as the founder, owner, and lead instructor of the Autism and Movement Project (AAMP), also referred to as Autism Movement Therapy (AMT). This program uses movement-based therapy to support children and individuals with autism, focusing on brain-body connections, building communication skills, independence, and hope through structured physical activities and sequences. Her work was inspired by personal experience: she began the project around her connection to a child named Connor (diagnosed with autism at age 2½), whose progress—including developing short sentences and greater independence—became a powerful testament to the approach. She's been providing this specialized therapy in Pana since at least the early 2010s, with media coverage highlighting "magic in movement" and breakthrough moments, like early verbal interactions with students. More recently, she expanded her impact by opening Brewin' Hope Coffeehouse in Pana, which creates meaningful employment opportunities for teens and young adults (including those with autism), emphasizing their strengths, purpose, and potential in a community setting. Erica has been featured in local and regional media, including PBS's A Shot of Ag (in a 2026 episode), newspaper stories from outlets like the State Journal-Register, and nonprofit profiles, where she's portrayed as passionate, compassionate, and transformative in her small-town community. She's a Pana native (or long-time resident), holds a sociology background from Millikin University, and is certified in Autism Movement Therapy. Her efforts show a deep commitment to neurodiversity, inclusion, and creating accessible resources where they might otherwise be limited.

Most cultural institutions know games matter. Very few know what to do about it. Kristian Volsing is one of the people who figured it out — and built the path in real time.As part of the V&A's contemporary design team, Kristian co-curated Design/Play/Disrupt, one of the most significant museum exhibitions ever dedicated to game design. He navigated studio NDAs, convinced the National Gallery of Art to lend a Magritte for a game show, and flew a colleague to Kyoto — where Nintendo showed her exactly one meeting room.In this conversation, we go deep on what it actually takes to build a sustainable games program inside a cultural institution: why live events beat collection-building as a starting point, how to work with an industry that guards its IP fiercely, and what experimental game designers actually need from institutions like yours.

In this episode, Camden and I cover: Starting early: Camden's “self-starter” drive—and the mentors who helped him learn fast (including Kathleen Walsh, President/CEO of the Metro North YMCA). Beyond the Crisis: how watching families in the Boston area wait in long lines for food during COVID sparked an “Uber Eats-style” nonprofit distribution model—and how they partnered with Catholic Charities of Boston. Momentum and credibility: how the charity's visibility led to major exposure and new relationships (including appearances on CBS, Bloomberg, PBS, the Drew Barrymore Show, and even White House conferences). NomadAI: why Camden believes travel is a perfect industry for AI disruption—and how NomadAI aims to build itineraries and handle planning like a “24/7 assistant in your back pocket.” Meridian Capital Partners: a founder-focused “hub” that invests very early stage in college founders—especially people who don't have the usual resume or network. The hard parts: being misunderstood in a high-pressure prep school environment, dealing with racism, isolation, and having to finish part of high school online. The turning point: Universe taking three years to get funded, losing an early investor, and Camden's “dark night of the soul” moment—where he had to stop chasing comparison and decide what he's actually committed to. The mission behind Universe: Camden's focus on helping Gen Z navigate a brutal job/internship market—and building something that serves them in a way he feels LinkedIn doesn't.   A few lines worth remembering Camden on mission: “I'm really committed to making a difference and solving problems and connecting people.” Camden on perseverance: after setbacks and many calls, they found an accredited investor who put six figures in because he saw the MVP—and the dream. Camden to Gen Z builders: if you're in a tough season, keep going—try new things—persevere.   Links / Resources Mentioned NomadAI: NomadAI.io Universe (waitlist): UniverseApp.com   About Camden Francis (from this episode) Camden Francis is a Gen Z founder based in the Boston area.

Endalok verða rauður þráður í Heimskviðum í dag. Það eru vægast sagt umdeild endalok þáttaraðarinnar Stranger things, en óhætt að segja að það séu margir ósáttir við þau. Svo eru það möguleg endalok almannaþjónustumiðla í Bandaríkjunum. Það er stefna bandaríkjastjórnar að draga úr umfangi þessara miðla sem reka staðbundnar útvarps- og sjónvarpsstöðvar um öll Bandaríkin. Núna séu komnir fjöldi sjálfstæðra miðla og það sé ekki aðeins úrelt fyrirkomulag að ríkið fjármagni miðlana heldur spilli það fyrir sjálfstæðri blaðamennsku. Við tölum við Ingibjörgu Þórðardóttur sem er fyrrverandi fréttastjóri BBC og CNN í Bandaríkjunum. Hún segir umræðuna um að ríkismiðlar hafi of mikil áhrif á fjölmiðlamarkaðinn góða og gilda en hún eigi ekki við Bandaríkjunum. Almannaþjónustumiðlarnir, NPR og PBS, eigi ekki roð í stærstu einkamiðlana og hvarf þeirra hefði lítil eða engin áhrif á þá. En það myndi hins vegar gera fjölmiðlalandslandslagið bæði einhæfara og fátæklegra. Svo er það eitt helsta flaggskip Netflix-streymisveitunnar - Stranger Things. Aðdáendur þáttanna eru margir hverjir vægast sagt ósáttir við hvernig þættirnir enduðu. Sprottið hafa upp ýmsar samsæriskenningar meðal annars um hvort endalokin séu raunveruleg. Duffer-bræður, skaparar þáttanna, eru sagðir hafa misst boltann í blálokin - eða er þetta kannski bara snilldar markaðssetning? Það hlýtur alla vega að vera ákveðin snilld að fá fólk til þess að vera enn að tala um þættina og jafnvel að horfa á þá aftur og aftur, til að finna vísbendingar og lesa milli línanna.

THRILLED to welcome Suzanne Vega back to the show. He has been a fan since her debut in 1985, and that longtime admiration shapes the conversation as they talk about her career, her new album “Flying With Angels,” and the current world tour. They also spend time on the film version of her one-woman show about Carson McCullers, “Lover, Beloved,” which is now available on PBS and airing this weekend. It's a relaxed, thoughtful exchange with an artist who has built a career on sharp writing and quiet power. Later, Erik Childress and Steve Prokopy join Nick to talk about the decision to keep the new Scream installment away from critics, which rarely signals confidence. They also review several new releases, including Pillion, EPiC: Elvis Presley in Concert, In the Blink of an Eye, and Dreams. It's music, movies, and a little industry skepticism, all packed into one lively episode. [Ep 432]

Content Warning: grooming, domestic violence, physical violence, sexual violence, sexual abuse, childhood sexual abuse, and sex trafficking.Marina Lacerda is a survivor and mother from Brazil. In her youth, she immigrated to New York with her mother in hopes of forging a new life. Almost immediately, Marina would begin to face sexual and physical violence that normalized a long cycle of abuse. By the time she was 14, Marina would be introduced to Jeffrey Epstein, a man that seemed to symbolize success and wealth, but only added to her trauma. Eventually, Marina would play a part in both of the FBI's attempts at justice in 2008 and 2019, when during the latter, she would be dubbed, “Minor Victim 1.” Marina's journey is a testament to the impact of the cycle of abuse, but it also is a testament to her personal resilience and strength.

DEBUNKED: Exposing Every Lie In Ken Burns' New Anti-American Documentary. Today on the Matt Walsh Show we are going to take a close look at a piece of sophisticated anti-American propaganda just released by PBS and the documentary filmmaker Ken Burns. There is a neverending effort to make Americans embarrassed of their history, and to give credit for its achievements to people who don't deserve it. American history has been rewritten for this purpose. Today we will debunk the lies. Also, Pennsylvania just passed a law against hair discrimination. That sounds absurd, and it is, but it's even worse and more nefarious than you think.

When James Garfield won the presidential election, Charles Guiteau was ecstatic. He was certain that he'd played a major role in Garfield's victory. So, fueled by delusion, Charles Guiteau began hounding James Garfield for a political appointment.Meanwhile, New York Senator and political boss Roscoe Conkling threw a temper tantrum. James Garfield had the tenacity to fill his cabinet with members of his *own* choosing. That made Roscoe mad. So? He hatched a plan. A very stupid plan.Remember, kids, history hoes always cite their sources!

In this episode of Get Out In It, we explore why movement isn't just training — it's therapy, clarity, and confidence rolled into one. Have you ever gone out feeling stressed, overwhelmed, or flat… and come back feeling lighter? That shift isn't accidental. It's physiological. It's emotional. And it's powerful. We talk about how simple movement — whether it's a run, a ride, or a walk outside — reduces stress, sharpens thinking, improves sleep, and builds resilience far beyond fitness. This isn't about chasing PBs or smashing intervals. It's about using movement as a tool to regulate your nervous system, reset your mindset, and remind yourself what you're capable of. If life feels heavy, this episode is your reminder: sometimes the answer isn't more thinking — it's more moving.

After, Democratic strategist Rebecca Katz, Republican Congressman Mike Lawler, PBS host Margaret Hoover, and CNN Senior Political Commentator Van Jones break down the political fallout from the Supreme Court striking down most of President Trump's tariffs.

SEND US A MESSAGE! We'd Love to Chat With you and Hear your thoughts! We'll read them on the next episode. In this episode we examine why cultural pride and uncritical veneration of Black religious figures can lead people away from the orthodox gospel of Jesus Christ. We make the scope clear: the standard is Scripture, and salvation is found in Christ alone. Through historical examples, theological contrast, and pastoral urgency, we show how honoring institutions or leaders who elevate ethnicity or human mediators above Christ risks false assurance and spiritual harm for present and future generations. This is an episode for the Church. However, I pray that this is heard and prayerfully received by Black Christians, pastors, Bible‑study leaders, and anyone wrestling with the tension between cultural loyalty and biblical fidelity. *DISCLAIMER* This episode is a plea to preserve souls by placing Christ above culture. Tune in to be challenged, equipped, and moved to love your community by calling it to the truth.General OutlineThe Anti-Christ nature of Black History Month's Current narrativeA preemptive rebuttal to common objections about criticizing Black cultural heroes.A clear theological standard: why orthodox biblical teaching must govern our loyalties.Case studies contrasting figures often celebrated in cultural histories with the biblical narrative.A critique of cultural frameworks that risk turning ethnic identity into spiritual authority.Pastoral next steps for confronting error with courage and compassion.Post Credit Audio|| S.M.

Send a textThis week we have a great conversation with Miles Spencer, and discuss his restless desire to experience as much of the world as possible, to learn from other cultures and to really test his boundaries for adventure!Over his winding path, he has found himself tested by both boardroom chaos and adventures that had no margin for error. He helped co-create MoneyHunt, which aired on PBS as a predecessor to Shark Tank, and while those studio lights were bright, they were nothing compared to leading more than 1,500 people in kayaks over 14 miles of open sea or walking 1,100 miles across desert in Saudi, Jordan and Syria. Each time, he was forced to confront what failure meant, and figure out how to rebuild after. Miles has founded (and exited) three media companies, with a fourth underway, but it's the recovery from missed shots that taught him the most about grit and moving forward.Miles comes on the show, to help us continue to build community, around vulnerability and hope. Thank you Miles!https://milesspencer.com/Support the show

Joining host Michael Azevedo on this episode is Angela Lynn Tucker, the director of an inspiring and informative new documentary called "The Inquisitor," which tells the story of the life and career of Barbara Jordan.   As a young girl growing up in Houston's Fifth Ward, Barbara Jordan was taught to defy expectations. She understood that to succeed, she would need to forge her own path.   With relentless determination and unyielding tenacity, Barbara Jordan made history as Texas's first Black state senator and in 1972 the first Southern Black woman elected to the U.S. House of Representatives.    At a time when the idea of a Black woman holding power seemed inconceivable, Barbara Jordan created a roadmap for change.   "The Inquisitor" chronicles the life of Congresswoman Barbara Jordan, whose electrifying voice and moral clarity during President Richard Nixon's impeachment captivated the nation. Earning her the moniker “The Inquisitor.”   The film will premiere on 2/23 on PBS as part of the Independent Lens series.   Making Media Now is sponsored by Filmmakers Collaborative, a non-profit organization dedicated to supporting media makers from across the creative spectrum.

PBS KIDS is one of the only places in kids' media that still feels like it's made by people who actually like children. It's the show your kid watches and then… somehow… can still turn the iPad off without acting like you just stole their life force (because their programming is slow paced, based on research enhancing your child's brain rather than rotting it). It's the content that teaches real skills (letters, math, emotional regulation, empathy) without turning your child into a tiny zombie who can't look away. And right now? That lifeline is being cut.This week, Kristin sits down with Sara DeWitt (Senior VP + General Manager of PBS KIDS) for a conversation every parent needs to hear, about what PBS does differently, why it matters for kids' brains, and what's at stake after federal funding was cut, including the termination of the Ready To Learn grant that helped fund PBS KIDS' education and research work.In this episode, Sara shares:Why some kids' content is designed to be impossible to turn off, and how PBS builds the oppositeWhy “developmentally appropriate” shows are rarer and rarer these days in the media outside of PBS kidsThe real impact of funding cuts (reduced staff, paused research, fewer new shows in the pipeline)The magic of Daniel Tiger (yes, we talk about the iconic “beach in the house” moment)And the story behind Carl the Collector, PBS KIDS' first series with an autistic lead character, and why this kind of representation changes kids foreverIf you've ever felt like PBS KIDS helped you survive early parenthood… if your kid has learned more from Daniel Tiger than from any parenting book on your nightstand… if you've been looking at the screen time landscape like “WE ARE NOT OK”… this one's for you.How to help (fast + doable):Watch PBS KIDS + download the apps (usage matters).Donate to your local PBS station (go to PBS.org, enter your ZIP code).Tell your story — why PBS matters to your family.

It was the summer of 1880, and Charles Guiteau didn't have much going for him. He was unemployed. He had very little money. He had no relationships. His family members feared he was insane. But Charles didn't see himself that way. He thought he was destined for greatness. He'd convinced himself that he was an excellent public speaker with an eye for politics. So? He dedicated himself to James Garfield's presidential campaign.In less than a year, he'd assassinate the president of the United States. Remember, kids, history hoes always cite their sources! For this episode, Kristin pulled from: The book, “Destiny of the Republic: A Tale of Madness, Medicine, and the Murder of a President,” by Candice MillardThe book, “Dark Horse: The Surprise Election and Political Murder of President James A.

He discusses City Hall, Titticut Follies, High School and more. Wiseman was a prolific filmmaker, making 45 films over 50 years.  Wiseman's family and Zipporah Films kindly request that you support your local PBS affiliate or independent bookstore in Frederick Wiseman's memory. Frederick Wiseman has proven that, in his words, “If you hang around long enough, you can collect enough material and cut a dramatic narrative film out of real life.” A Frederick Wiseman documentary has a very specific style- no narration, no identifying lower-third captions, no interviews and no camera movement. The viewer simply watches the story unfold as a slice of life. The subject is usually a mundane, everyday institution that many might simply overlook. Wiseman feels his films are not merely observational, but that he actively makes decisions on how to sculpt them into a narrative during the editing process. He enjoys making documentary films because he finds comedy and drama exist in ordinary life, just as much as anyone would find in fiction. Wiseman shies away from the terms “documentary” and “cinema verité”- he thinks the term "movie" is good enough because “documentary” is something that sounds like it's supposed to be good for you. For Wiseman's film, City Hall, he had the idea that recording what happens in a city hall would be a good inside look into the machinery of how a city runs. Boston City Hall happened to be the only one that gave him permission. A staffer of the mayor had seen his films and liked the idea. Unlike some of Wiseman's other movies, Boston mayor Marty Walsh was a central character- as the leader of the city, he is very involved in seeing that it runs smoothly. Before he became a director, Wiseman was a lawyer and law school teacher. He always wanted to be a director, but had no experience with movies. He saw an opportunity to become a producer when he optioned a novel called The Cool World and asked director Shirley Clark to helm it, which helped demystify the process for him. Wiseman's first documentary, 1967's Titticut Follies, was about the Bridgewater Prison for the Criminally Insane. He knew the warden from his years as a lawyer and was able to get permission to shoot at the facility and gain access to the inmates. His next film, High School was released in 1968. "After shooting in a prison for the insane, high school seemed to be the next logical progression," he jokes. Part of Wiseman's process is to find the film as he shoots, venturing forth purposefully blind and with little preparation. For him, it all emerges in the editing process. Wiseman always does his own editing and watches each piece of footage-generally about 150 hours of it- to decide how to structure each sequence. Find Frederick Wiseman's documentaries.

If you do nothing else, listen to the beginning of this episode. The first few minutes. Maybe with a large drink in your hand.A tiny town in upstate New York. A dapper man with glasses, a dream, and a Duesenberg he didn't need. One of the greatest—and nuttiest—moments in the history of American racing. And that's how stateside sports-car racing went big time.This show's format rotates weekly, because squirrel. This episode is our monthly deep dive into an epic moment from racing history. In this case, that means the story of the the 1948 Watkins Glen Grand Prix—America's first postwar road race, a homespun miracle fit for Mayberry, and weekend that kicked off a movement that's still going strong today.***IN THIS EP: A Kentucky man (not Sam) rolls a car into a creek — Ross watches PBS and lives to talk about it — An English car with a supercharger and entirely too much wood in its body structure — Briggs MF-ing Cunningham and you better believe it — Four wheels up at 100 mph — and more!This episode was produced by Sam Smith.Thanks, as always, to our friends at BFGoodrich for supporting the show!**Who We Are + Spicy Merch:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.ItsNotTheCar.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠**Support It's Not the Car:Contribute on Patreon ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.patreon.com/notthecar⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠**Topic suggestions, feedback, questions?

If you've done the therapy, read the books, and tried everything to move on from betrayal—but you're STILL not okay—this episode explains why.  Dr. Debi reveals what Post Betrayal Syndrome® (PBS®) is, why conventional support often falls short, and what betrayal-informed care actually looks like. You'll learn why your body won't let go, why your mind won't quiet, and why the healing path requires specialized support.  This isn't about trying harder. It's about getting the right kind of help.    IN THIS EPISODE, YOU'LL LEARN:  What Post Betrayal Syndrome Really Is  The physical symptoms: exhaustion, digestive issues, immune dysfunction, unexplained pain  The mental symptoms: brain fog, obsessive thoughts, decision paralysis, hypervigilance  The emotional symptoms: numbness, endless grief, anger that won't leave, inability to trust  The identity impact: not recognizing yourself, questioning your judgment, feeling fundamentally broken  Why Conventional Support Hasn't Worked  Why therapy alone often isn't enough for betrayal recovery  Why self-help books skip essential stages of healing  Why wellness protocols don't resolve symptoms when betrayal is the root cause  Why coaching strategies hit an invisible barrier  The training gap: what most practitioners weren't taught  What Betrayal Does to Your Body  How betrayal creates a nervous system paradox that keeps you stuck in hypervigilance  Why your immune system dysregulates (and the autoimmune connection)  The gut-brain-betrayal axis: why digestive issues start after betrayal  How your entire endocrine system becomes depleted  Why conventional medicine treats these as separate issues when they're all connected  The Five Stages from Betrayal to Breakthrough  Stage 1: This isn't happening (shock and denial)  Stage 2: What happened? (making sense of shattered reality)  Stage 3: The need for control (hypervigilance and trust issues)  Stage 4: Finding a new normal (rebuilding identity and boundaries)  Stage 5: Healing and rebirth (complete transformation)  Why you can't skip stages—and what happens when you try  What Betrayal-Informed Support Actually Looks Like  Why betrayal is different from general trauma  What practitioners miss when they aren't betrayal-trained  The difference between coping, managing, and actually healing  How to recognize if support is truly betrayal-informed  Why demand for this support currently exceeds availability    KEY QUOTES FROM THIS EPISODE:  "You're not stuck because you're broken. You're stuck because you haven't had access to the right kind of support."  "Your body isn't broken. Your body is responding exactly as it should to betrayal."  "It's not that you hired the wrong people. It's not that you didn't try hard enough. It's that betrayal requires betrayal-specific support."  "With betrayal, the threat came from someone you trusted. Someone your nervous system believed was safe. That creates a paradox your nervous system can't resolve."  "You can't skip stages. You can't rush them. And you need support that understands which stage you're in and what you need at that stage."  "Most practitioners weren't trained in this—not because they're behind, but because it wasn't included in most certifications."    RESOURCES MENTIONED:  Looking for Betrayal-Informed Support? Join the waitlist to be notified when certified PBT practitioners become available in your area or specialty:
