Filmmaker Kenji Yamamoto got a gig working on Apple promotional videos a decade ago and went looking for temporary housing in the pricey Bay Area. What he found was an inside look at the world of hacker houses.These are group residences for people who come to Silicon Valley to pursue their dreams — like a college dorm for startup hopefuls. Yamamoto takes viewers inside that world in his new documentary for PBS, “The Dreamers and I.”More on this:“The Dreamers and I” from PBS“The New (And Slightly Smelly) Center of the AI Boom” from The Atlantic

Heat kills more people than any other weather disaster, yet almost no government agency owns the problem. A UCLA researcher explains why that has to change.

With every growing season, the South is in danger of losing an ingredient that's shaped our state's flavor, history, and culture. This week, we will be talking with Chef Kevin Mitchell and food historian David Shields, hosts of the SCETV and PBS series The Savers of Flavor about their ongoing search for the vanishing ingredients of Southern cuisine. Over the course of four episodes David and Kevin embark on a quest to seek out and rescue those ingredients before they are lost forever.

On this episode of Destination on the Left, I talk with Patrick, a documentary filmmaker and creator of Made with Love, a series that shines a light on artisans, their crafts, and the traditions behind them. Patrick shares how a project born during the COVID-19 pandemic evolved into a television series and a collection of small-group artisan tours designed to bring travelers behind the scenes and into deeper connection with the people and places they visit. We discuss the value of authentic storytelling, the unexpected overlap between filmmaking and tour operations, and how tourism can help preserve cultural traditions while creating meaningful connections between travelers and local communities. What You Will Learn in This Episode: How a personal family experience during the pandemic inspired the creation of Made with Love Why authentic human connections can create more lasting travel memories than visiting well-known attractions alone How Patrick transitioned from documentary filmmaking into creating bespoke, small-group artisan tours What makes working with local producers and community connections essential to authentic cultural storytelling How tourism can support artisans while helping preserve crafts, traditions, and cultural heritage Why small-group experiences can foster meaningful connections between travelers, artisans, and fellow guests What destinations and tour operators can learn from creating story-driven experiences rooted in local people and place From Filmmaking to Meaningful Travel Experiences Patrick's journey into tourism began with documentary filmmaking and a desire to share the people and places he encountered while producing Made with Love. During a year living in Bologna, Italy, with his family during the COVID-19 pandemic, he discovered the depth of Italy's artisan culture and saw firsthand how shutdowns and the absence of tourism were affecting local makers. Their passion and dedication resonated with him, inspiring him to use his storytelling skills to give these artisans a platform.  That experience eventually led to the creation of Made with Love as a television series and, later, the development of artisan-focused tours. As Patrick explains, the skills required to produce television translate surprisingly well to tour operations, from managing logistics and accommodations to creating itineraries and taking care of a group. More importantly, both forms of work depend on understanding people and creating an experience that allows their stories to come through authentically.  Putting Authenticity and Human Connection at the Center One of the central themes Patrick explores is the difference between simply seeing a destination and genuinely connecting with it. While iconic attractions remain important, he believes travelers often remember the people they meet and the stories they hear long after the trip is over. His tours are intentionally designed to move beyond crowded hotspots and give guests opportunities to meet artisans in their workshops, ask questions, and experience their crafts firsthand.  The small size of the groups helps make those connections possible. Patrick shares how artisans who had never welcomed travelers into their studios have embraced the opportunity to share their work, while guests gain a more personal understanding of the communities they are visiting. Those shared experiences also create connections among travelers themselves, with guests returning for additional Made with Love tours in other countries.  Tourism as a Tool for Preserving Craft and Culture At the heart of Made with Love is a mission to support artisans and help preserve the crafts and traditions that contribute to a community's cultural identity. Patrick shares stories of generational artisans, including families who have practiced the same craft for many generations, and describes the importance of creating opportunities for these makers to share their work with visitors.  The relationship can benefit everyone involved. Travelers gain access to experiences they might not otherwise encounter, while artisans have an opportunity to share their knowledge and generate additional income through guest purchases. As Patrick looks toward expanding the series and tours into new countries, he emphasizes the importance of working with local producers and community connections to identify crafts that are genuinely rooted in each destination. For him, authentic storytelling starts with listening to local people and allowing their culture and traditions to shape the experience.  Resources: Made with Love on PBS: pbs.org/show/made-with-love/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/patrick-greene-34a9876/

Send us Fan MailInside Communications: Rhode Island Primary Closing Messages and Election PredictionsBill Bartholomew and Half Street Group's Mike Raia break down how campaigns shift from persuasion to turnout in the final stretch before Rhode Island's primary elections. They also look at which candidates are handling their closing messages well, how early voting changes campaign strategy, and where the major races appear to be headed.Key topicsIn this episode, Bill Bartholomew and Mike Raia discuss why the Rhode Island election season finally feels fully underway, with more yard signs, more voter curiosity, and more attention to early voting.Mike explains what a closing message is in campaign communications, describing it as the final turn from persuasion to mobilization in the last two to three weeks before voting ends.They discuss how campaigns should peak at the right moment, since cresting too early can leave a candidate vulnerable to losing attention before Election Day.Mike says the most successful closing messages usually shift away from attacking opponents and toward biography, vision, authenticity, and turnout.They examine Governor Dan McKee's messaging and argue that his campaign has spent too much time defining Helena Foulkes instead of telling his own story.The conversation highlights early voting as a major strategic factor, especially in light of the 2022 governor's race and how late-breaking debate timing affected Helena Foulkes' momentum.Mike says Mayor Brett Smiley has one of the strongest closing strategies in Rhode Island right now, crediting him for clearly defining his base and contrasting his leadership style with David Morales.They also discuss the lieutenant governor's race, where Mike sees Saya as having an effective closing message built around showing Rhode Islanders themselves in the campaign's imagery and tone.In the attorney general's race, Mike says the key battle appears to be between Kim Ahern and Keith Hoffman, with Ahern possibly benefiting from Helena Foulkes's broader support network.The episode closes with a broader reflection on generational turnover in Rhode Island politics, with Bill and Mike arguing that millennial and Gen X leaders are increasingly ready to take the reins.Timestamps00:00 - Election season finally feels real in Rhode Island01:08 - Early voting, yard signs, and the race for voter attention04:02 - What a closing message actually is05:18 - Why campaigns stop persuading and start mobilizing06:29 - Why attacking the opponent can weaken a final push08:28 - Final two weeks are about turnout, not conversion09:05 - How media, field, and mail work together late in the race10:35 - Why timing the closing message matters more than ever12:36 - Building a campaign cadence backward from the decision date13:54 - Brett Smiley's closing message in the Providence mayor's race15:25 - Saya's visual and generational strategy in the lieutenant governor race17:17 - Mike's governor's race prediction: Helena Foulkes by a wide margin19:37 - Mike's Providence mayor prediction: Smiley over Morales22:19 - Why the lieutenant governor race is so hard to call23:37 - The attorney general race and the Kim Ahern versus Keith Hoffman split27:06 - Rhode Island's leadership transition to younger generations29:36 - Why millennials see themselves as ready for leadership now31:35 - Final thoughts heading into election day Support the showFollow Bill on Instagram and YouTube

Tamsen Fadal was 47 and anchoring the evening news when the first hot flash hit.She got off the set and lay down on the bathroom floor. No one had prepared her well for any of this. The answer, when it finally came, was a short note from her doctor in her patient portal with four words: "In menopause, any questions?"Tamsen Fadal is an Emmy Award-winning journalist, executive producer of the PBS documentary The M Factor and The M Factor 2, and New York Times bestselling author of How to Menopause. She spent thirty years in television news before turning to the thing nobody had explained to her.Tamsen and Mike get into what menopause actually is, how its symptoms can resemble anxiety or depression, and what changed after the 2002 hormone study.This is a conversation for men as much as for women. Every man is a partner, colleague, son, or father to someone moving through this. Tamsen's line is that men don't have to go through it, but they do have to understand it.Tamsen calls what comes after menopause “the next 30.” Her point is to decide what you want those years to look like, and start building toward them now.Enjoy the conversation.___________________________________________________Links & Resources:Tamsen Fadal's Website: tamsenfadal.comTamsen Fadal's Books: How to Menopause: Take Charge of Your Health, Reclaim Your Life, and Feel Even Better than Before, The New Single, Why Hasn't He Proposed?, Why Hasn't He Called?Tamsen Fadal's Documentaries: The M Factor: Shredding the Silence on Menopause and The (M) Factor 2: Before the Pause, both on PBSTamsen Fadal's Podcast: The Tamsen ShowSubscribe to our Youtube Channel for more conversations at the intersection of high performance, leadership, and wellbeing: https://www.youtube.com/c/FindingMasteryGet exclusive discounts and support our amazing sponsors!Go to: https://findingmastery.com/sponsors/Subscribe to the Finding Mastery newsletter for weekly high performance insights: https://www.findingmastery.com/newsletterDownload Dr. Mike's Morning Mindset Routine: findingmastery.com/morningmindsetFollow on YouTube, Instagram, LinkedIn, and XSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Join us as we explore the worldwide phenomenon behind the revival of Homer's 3000-year-old story, the kaleidoscopic and hallucinogenic return of Odysseus to Ithaka, the Greek island that has become an icon for home itself. There is the immense beauty of the poem itself and the historical importance of Homer's accomplishment, but what does the story mean to us now, how can it help illuminate the chaos of our lives today? Composed by the Poet Known as Homer, around 650 BC, it was based on a story about the Trojan War that was already hundreds of years old. Since then, the story about the hallucinogenic adventures of Odysseus, his son Telemachus, and wife Penelope have cast a spell over cultures around the world, haunting poets, playwrights and philosophers, and taunting the efforts of archaeologists, linguists and now filmmakers to render it in modern terms. Our conversation will explore the myriad life lessons of Homer's masterpiece that have inspired readers, listeners and now viewers for millennia, with a focus on the central theme of the nostoi, the return stories of ancient Greek soldiers, adventurers, philosophers and scientists coming home, and the wider question of what home meant to the ancients—and what home means to us now, the most rootless people in recorded history. Along the way, we will have an animated exchange about the wide range of translations, from Alexander Pope, T. E. Lawrence, and E. V. Rieu, to Richard Lattimore, Emily Wilson and Daniel Mendelosohn. Finally, we will playfully review the myriad movie versions, from George Melies' four-minute version in 1905, to the 1956 Ulysses with Kirk Douglas, and the freshly minted Odyssey helmed by Christopher Nolan.   Finally, there is the surprising realization that it is five female characters (Penelope, Athena, Calypso, Circe and Nausicaa) who helped guide Odysseus homeward, and the centuries-long influence on art, literature and cinema. Join us for a celebration of the soul-saving power of this ancient Greek tale, which sings of the aftermath of a savage war and the restoration of our hero's home, all the while insisting on need to say “yes” to life.  About the Speaker Phil Cousineau is the author of The Wisdom of the Odyssey and over 40 other books, including the bestselling The Art of Pilgrimage, and The Hero's Journey: Joseph Campbell on His Life and Work.

On today's show, host Douglas Haynes speaks with Sasha Waters about her new documentary, Mary Oliver: Saved by the Beauty of the World, that premiered last week on PBS's American Masters series. The film profiles the life and legacy of one of America's greatest poets who passed away in 2019. Waters says that the film has the structure of a musical, biographical insights interspersed with poetry readings by some of Oliver's greatest fans, including Stephen Colbert and Jason Reynolds. Waters sourced readers, in part, by looking through TikTok videos of people with wild geese tattoos. The numerous readers create a dialog with Oliver's vast catalog of poetry, both well-known and new. Making a documentary about Mary Oliver was a difficult task because Oliver was very private for much of her life. But in her later life, Oliver became more outspoken, making comments about climate change and revealing her childhood sexual abuse. They also discuss Oliver's attunement to vulnerability and politics of hope.  You can view the documentary on PBS Wisconsin. Sasha Waters has produced and directed nearly two dozen documentary, experimental, and short essay films, many of which originate in 16mm. She is also a Professor of Film at Virginia Commonwealth University's School of the Arts in Richmond, Virginia.

Lyssna på alla avsnitt i Sveriges Radios app. Ett varmare klimat öppnar upp för en ny kinesisk handelsrutt norr om Ryssland. För Kinas del handlar det om kortare transportsträckor till Europa och en pålitligare passage då världspolitisk oro gjort de konventionella sjöfartslederna osäkra. Nu startar ett kinesiskt rederi för första gången regelbunden containerfrakt från Kina via den nya passagen och fraktfartyget ”Dubai tower” väntas ankomma till Storbritannien i början på september. Även Göteborg är listat som tilltänkt framtida hamn för rederiet.Fördjupar Kinas armkrok med RysslandDen kommersiella potentialen är i dagsläget begränsad och den nya rutten kommer med en rad osäkerheter. Men den nya farvägen understryker Kinas närvaro i ett Arktis som alltfler stater pekat ut som strategiskt betydelsefullt. Och trafiken stärker bandet mellan Kina och Ryssland. Lyssna på Radiokorrespondenterna Kina om vad den nya handelsrutten innebär för maktbalansen i Arktis och vilka konsekvenser det kan få för världshandeln.Medverkande: Hanna Sahlberg, Kinareporter.

Interview with David Pogue, Tech Journalist and Author Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/FloppyDays Sponsors: 8-Bit Classics - https://www.8bitclassics.com/?ref=Floppydays  Arcade Shopper - https://www.arcadeshopper.com/  FutureVision Research - https://www.fvresearch.com/  Tuc's Workbench - https://shop.tucs-workbench.com/  Hello and welcome to Floppy Days #166 for August, 2026.  My name is Randy Kindig and I'm your host for this glimpse of what life was like in the 70's and 80's with home computers. This episode is an interview-only show with a guest that I'm betting most of you have heard of and have admired his contributions to mainstream technology learning. David Pogue is a seven-time Emmy-winning correspondent for CBS Sunday Morning. He's also a New York Times bestselling author; he has written or co-written more than 120  books.  He's also a five-time TED speaker and host of 20 NOVA science specials on PBS.  He was The New York Times weekly tech columnist.  He recently released his latest book that is getting rave reviews:  "Apple: The First 50 Years." I must admit some early trepidation in speaking with David for the podcast.  Not because of any qualms about David himself; David is actually a terrific guy and that was obvious from his mountainous and amazing set of work.  It was more of some intimidation based on his many appearances on TV and the large number of interviews HE personally has done over the years.  However, as the interview progressed, David made me feel completely at ease and I'm honored to have been able to talk with him 1-on-1. I think you'll enjoy hearing about his career, his many stories, his musical parodies, and details about his latest book about the first 50 years of Apple. This interview took place June 25, 2026.

Jean Chatzky's mother died with $1.7 million untouched in her retirement account – money she was too afraid to spend. In this episode, David Bach sits down with Jean, bestselling author and founder of HerMoney.com, to talk about her new book, The Forever Paycheck, and why so many retirees can't bring themselves to enjoy the money they spent a lifetime saving. They dig into why $45 trillion is sitting in American retirement accounts with almost none of it coming out, the psychology behind why we treat savings like "precious cargo" we're afraid to use, and what it actually means to build a "forever paycheck" – a reliable stream of income that lets you spend with confidence instead of fear. Jean also breaks down the different types of annuities, challenges the popular 4% withdrawal rule, and explains why your first decade of retirement — the "go-go years" – is the one you can't afford to spend too cautiously. Jean Chatzky has written over a dozen personal finance books, spent 25 years with the Today Show, and hosts the PBS series Opportunity Knocks. Her new book, The Forever Paycheck, is out on September 8th. Connect with Jean & David! Pre-Order The Forever Paycheck. Follow Jean on Facebook, Instagram & X.

Send us Fan MailRhode Island's primary sprint, the Providence mayor's race, and the shakeup in statewide politicsWith early voting underway, Bill Bartholomew and Jim Hummel (The Hummel Report, Ocean State Media, WPRO) break down a Rhode Island primary that feels unusually compressed, low-energy, and wide open in several marquee races. They focus on the governor's race, the Providence mayoral primary, and how turnout, apathy, and candidate organization could decide everything.We discuss why the governor's race appears to be Helena Foulkes versus Dan McKee, why Providence mayor could be the most consequential contest on the ballot, and how the attorney general and lieutenant governor primaries are shaped by heavy uncertainty and weak candidate separation. The conversation also zooms out to the collapse of Rhode Island Republican infrastructure and the question of whether independent Ken Block can change the dynamics.Key topicsThe primary feels like a sprint after a long buildup, with very little time to energize voters before election day.Hummel argues that apathy is the dominant force in this cycle, especially because many races feel either predetermined or hard to differentiate.In the governor's race, Dan McKee is framed as carrying a long list of political liabilities, including the Washington Bridge, CVS/opioids, and general voter fatigue.Helena Foulkes is seen as holding a consistent polling advantage, with multiple polls showing her ahead by a meaningful margin.The Providence mayor's race between incumbent Brett Smiley and challenger David Morales is described as the most interesting contest, with Morales bringing national attention and youthful energy.Smiley's strength is his political infrastructure, especially his turnout operation and support from Eddie Catucci, who is described as a master of mail ballots and ground game.The lieutenant governor and attorney general primaries are portrayed as crowded and muddy, with lots of undecided voters and very little ideological separation.The discussion notes that gun policy and constitutional concerns may be pushing some Democratic voters away from more aggressive positions in the AG race.National anti-incumbent sentiment is seen as helping challengers broadly, but not necessarily translating cleanly to every local race.Rhode Island Republicans are described as deeply weakened, lacking a coherent bench, a strong message, or an effective opposition strategy.Aaron Guckian and the Republican gubernatorial field are viewed as weakly positioned, while the congressional races are portrayed as even more chaotic.Ken Block is treated as the most plausible wild card in the governor's race, especially if he can consolidate support or benefit from a one-on-one dynamic.Timestamps(00:00) Opening the primary sprint and why this cycle feels flat (01:43) Why turnout and election-day energy matter more than usual (03:23) Providence mayor becomes the race to watch (05:36) McKee's polling problem and the uphill climb in the governor's race (06:23) What could help McKee and what still works against him (07:31) Smiley's turnout machine versus Morales' grassroots energy (08:42) Why the lieutenant governor and AG races are so unsettled (09:46) Little separation in the AG field and the gun policy divide (11:23) Does national anti-incumbent anger spill into Rhode Island? (13:14) What Providence schools and city management mean for Smiley (14:15) The collapse of the Rhode Island Republican ecosystem (15:55) Why the GOP congressional slate looks so weak (17:14) How Trump hollowed out the state party (19:41) Could Ken Block become the real governor's race alternative? (21:55) Block's media strategy and money challenge (22:25) Election day timing, early voting, and closing thoughtsSupport the showFollow Bill on Instagram and YouTube

Fresh off the first Cascadia Men's Conference, I'm pleased to share my first long-form podcast episode in some months. Right now, Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey is storming around the world, a $1.3 billion phenomenon that has returned one of humanity's oldest stories to the center of our cultural conversation.My guest today is a man who has been steeping in this epic for years. Phil Cousineau is the author of newly published ‘The Wisdom of the Odyssey: Twenty-four Life Lessons from Homer's Epic' and more than forty other books, including the bestselling The Art of Pilgrimage and The Hero's Journey: Joseph Campbell on His Life and Work. He is a writer, teacher, and storyteller who has consulted on myth and story for Warner Brothers, Pixar, and Lucasfilm, led mythology travel programs to Greece for more than three decades, and hosted the PBS television series Global Spirit.In our conversation, Phil invites us to look at why The Odyssey has risen once again. He suggests the epic poem is Western culture's first articulated case of PTSD and the consequence of war and conquest. We speak of the women who guide Odysseus back to himself, the terror of crossing your own threshold after twenty years away, and what it means when love rather than fame becomes the gravity that pulls a man home.Phil reminds us that the Odyssey is everybody's story, and the courage required to bend down and kiss the earth in gratitude for the chance to begin again.Here in full is the Rumi poem I reference (translated by Haleh Liza Gafori)LOVE, YOUR waters, your melodieswhirl me and whirl me.I'm the wheel in a mill.Whirl me forever.When my heart is troubled,when my heart has fled,keep me close.No branch, no leaf, no piece of straw drawn to amberwill move without a breeze.Unless desire stirs it, nothing in this world will dance.Every element, every particle of every elementis a whirling lover, drunk on union.The generous host lays out a feast.Animals graze the sweet grass.Didn't the ants tell secrets to Solomon?Didn't the mountains singwhen David sang his songs of praise?The sky is your lover.Lay your head on its peaceful chest.The sun is your lover. Drink its light.Love moves through every mountain and field.How else would green grow from earth's dark body?LINKS * Phil Cousineau - Official Website* The Wisdom of the Odyessy - BookHeads up, if you are a man seeking to explore the mythopoetic path, you are invited to check out The Archetypal Compass.

Louisiana's coast is rapidly disappearing into the Gulf, threatening not only the land, but also the people and the culture that make it special. Instead of mourning the coast, a new series from PBS member station WYES is celebrating it. Eco Trip is the Gulf South's first eco-adventure television series that combines outdoor adventure, authentic travel, rich cultural traditions and environmental discovery. Host Tom Gregory jumps into each adventure firsthand, creating an authentic look at the culture, history and perseverance that has shaped coastal Louisiana for generations. He spoke with the coastal desk's Eva Tesfaye for more.Back in May, WNYC's On the Media released a podcast all about the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) — “American Emergency: The Movement to Kill FEMA.” The four-part series chronicled the agency from its founding to its current uncertain status in the Trump Administration.

It's the holidays, and photographer Brooklyn Locke is bound for Italy with her husband, Trey, and their two children. But when Trey vanishes from the airport, missing their connecting flight, their impromptu vacation―and life as she knows it―begins to unravel.Desperate to find her husband, Brooklyn accepts help from a stranger on the same flight, Eden Barrow. But Eden soon makes a shocking claim. She is the sister of Trey's first wife, and ten years ago he was the main suspect in her murder.Struggling to comprehend these accusations, fate delivers one more blow: a violent accident that leaves Brooklyn fighting for her life. With nowhere else to turn, Brooklyn leans on Eden for support. But each kindness feels too rehearsed, feeding her doubts about Eden's motives and Trey's true past.Brooklyn has her own dark history she'd rather forget and confronts an unsettling possibility. Her life is not what it seems, and the truth is a trap―laid by someone waiting for the perfect time to strike.J.T.

From oral traditions and Gothic literature to television, movies and modern popular culture, Emily examines how monsters change shape while the human fears behind them remain strangely familiar. This is a conversation about what monsters represent, why folklore survives and what happens when the creature in the story tells us more about humanity than humanity may be comfortable admitting.Turns out the monster under the bed may have been making a point.Prefer to watch and listen without adverts?

In 2023, Chef Edgar "Dook" Chase IV made his public television debut in the WYES cooking series, "The Dooky Chase Kitchen: Leah's Legacy." Dook, the grandson of Louisiana legend Leah Chase, is now back with a brand-new PBS series called "Dook Chase: A Chef's Journey." Each episode takes viewers on a food tour of New Orleans, as Dook meets with chefs, restaurateurs, and local culinary talent. On this week's show, we sit down with Chef Dook and speak with two guests featured on his show about their chef journeys. After Dook tells us about the show and companion cookbook of the same name, we chat with Kaitlin Guerin, the New Orleans gal who was the first baker in the U.S. to become a finalist in the emerging chef category of the prestigious James Beard Awards. We hear how she reached that lofty position and what she's creating at Lagniappe Bakehouse, her Central City shop that's getting such national attention. Finally, we speak with Meg Bickford, the first female to ever rise to the executive chef's position at Commander's Palace. There's an awful lot of talent and power in that tiny little frame.

(Melodie Edwards / Wyoming Public Radio) Voters in Alaska were not the only ones heading to the polls this week. Primaries were also held Tuesday in Florida and Wyoming. In Wyoming, some voters on the Wind River Reservation told Wyoming Public Radio that transportation to polling places remains an issue. Voters also expressed a desire for more tribal candidates and greater representation of Native culture in schools. Statewide, U.S. Rep. Harriet Hageman, R-Wyoming, won her party’s nomination for U.S. Senate. In Florida, state Rep. Angie Nixon, D-Jacksonville, scored an upset in the Democratic U.S. Senate primary, defeating former national security official Alexander Vindman. Nixon will face Republican Senator Ashley Moody in November. U.S. Rep. Byron Donalds, R-Florida, also won his party’s nomination for Florida governor. California voters also went to the polls Tuesday in a special congressional election. Dallas Cowboys rookie Shiyazh Pete. (Courtesy University of Kentucky Athletics) It is NFL preseason and the Arizona Cardinals will take on the Dallas Cowboys this Saturday in Glendale, Ariz. As KJZZ's Gabriel Pietrorazio reports, you might see a Navajo rookie take the field at State Farm Stadium. Cowboys owner Jerry Jones is optimistic for this season. “I'm even more excited today than I was when we started camp, that our team is going to be one that, if we can have some things go right for us, avoid some injury. We could really be something.” Among those fighting to make the Cowboys' roster is undrafted free agent Shiyazh Pete, who is believed to be the first Navajo player to sign an NFL contract. “I was quite, quite a specimen. I mean, really, didn't really have no one to kind of relate to in terms of height. I've always been asked questions of, you know, how tall are you? How's the weather up there?” Originally from Montana, the 6-foot-8 300-pound offensive lineman went to Shiprock High School on the Navajo Nation. He then walked on at New Mexico State University before transferring to the University of Kentucky, eventually signing with the Cowboys this spring. “It's a great honor – to put on the star is again surreal. But again, I have to earn that star. I wouldn't say I'm an official Cowboy yet.” But Pete has that chance to prove he belongs on “America's Team”.

(Courtesy WGBH Educational Foundation) A new PBS documentary is highlighting Indigenous scientific knowledge developed and passed down over thousands of years. The NOVA special “Knowledge Keepers” explores how Native communities have used observation, experimentation, and relationships with the natural world to develop approaches to science. The film looks at practices ranging from ancient sea farming and celestial navigation in the Arctic to ways of adapting to the harsh climate of the desert Southwest. The documentary also examines efforts by Indigenous knowledge keepers to preserve those practices and how that knowledge could help address challenges today. “Knowledge Keepers” was produced in partnership with Vision Maker Media and directed by Fort Yuma Quechan filmmaker Daniel Golding.

Despite spending decades in the media, she had no idea she was experiencing menopause.In this episode of hol+ with Dr. Taz MD, Tamsen shares how that frightening experience led her to investigate why so many women remain unprepared for perimenopause and menopause.Tamsen reflects on losing her mother to breast cancer and later realizing that her mother had experienced medical menopause following chemotherapy and a double mastectomy. Nearly 28 years separated their experiences, yet both women suffered without the information or support they needed.That realization inspired Tamsen to step away from a three-decade career in television journalism and devote her work to menopause education and advocacy. She explains how social media revealed the scale of the problem and gave women a place to share symptoms and experiences that had been ignored or dismissed.Dr. Taz and Tamsen also discuss the confusion surrounding hormone replacement therapy, the importance of personalized care, barriers to finding informed doctors, and the role telehealth may play in improving access. They explore how brain fog, anxiety, sleep disruption, and other symptoms can affect women's confidence, careers, relationships, and sense of identity.Tamsen also shares the story behind The M Factor: Shredding the Silence on Menopause. After being told there was no audience for a menopause documentary, Tamsen and her partners self-funded the project, brought together leading experts and women's personal stories, and ultimately secured national distribution through PBS.The conversation turns toward reclaiming menopause as a powerful stage of life rather than a period of invisibility or decline. Tamsen discusses her book, How to Menopause, and the practical lifestyle changes that have helped her take better care of herself at 54.In this episode:Tamsen's frightening menopause experience in the newsroomHeart palpitations, anxiety, insomnia, and severe brain fogWhy she did not recognize her symptoms as menopauseHer mother's experience with medically induced menopauseWhy menopause care has changed so little across generationsLeaving a three-decade journalism career for women's advocacyThe fear and financial uncertainty of making a major midlife changeHow social media helped women begin sharing their experiencesCreating The M Factor: Shredding the Silence on MenopauseBeing told there was no audience for a menopause documentaryWhy hormone replacement therapy remains confusingThe need for personalized menopause treatmentWhat to do when a doctor dismisses or minimizes your symptomsImproving menopause research, education, and access to careHow menopause symptoms affect women in the workplaceReframing menopause as a powerful new stage of lifeThe sleep, exercise, protein, stress, and alcohol changes helping Tamsen at 54About Tamsen Fadal:Tamsen Fadal is a 13-time Emmy-winning journalist, New York Times bestselling author, documentary filmmaker, podcaster, and menopause advocate.After more than three decades as a television journalist and news anchor, she shifted her work toward helping women understand perimenopause, menopause, and life beyond midlife.Tamsen is the author of How to Menopause: Take Charge of Your Health, Reclaim Your Life, and Feel Even Better Than Before.
