He also discussed lineup and rotation strategy, including Kodai Senga's scheduling and Sean Manaea's pitch count.

This week we review a recent important longitudinal follow up study of patients who have undergone palliation for the treatment of HLHS at The Children's Hospital of Philadelphia over the past 35+ years. What are the 'transplant-free' survival numbers at 35 years follow up following newborn palliation? Are there differences between hybrid and traditional "Norwood/Stage I" palliation? What factors explain the group of HLHS patients who do are 'super-Fontan's'? What accounts for the marked variability in outcomes of these complex patients? Dr. J. William Gaynor shares his deep insights both from his large scale paper and long-term experience caring for patients with HLHS.doi: 10.1016/j.jacc.2025.04.028
Today Razib talks to David Gress, a Danish historian. The son of an American literary scholar and a Danish writer, he grew up in Denmark, read Classics at Cambridge, and then earned a Ph.D. in medieval history from Bryn Mawr College in the US in 1981. During a fellowship form 1982-1992 at Stanford University's Hoover Institution, he published on Cold‑War strategy, German political culture, and Nordic security. He has been a visiting fellow and lecturer at Gonville & Caius College, Cambridge, fellow at the Danish Institute of International Affairs, an assistant professor of Classics at Aarhus University, and professor of the history of civilization at Boston University. He co‑directed the Center for the Study of America and the West at the Foreign Policy Research Institute in Philadelphia and remains a senior fellow of the Danish free‑market think tank CEPOS while writing a regular column for Jyllands‑Posten. His breakthrough book, From Plato to NATO: The Idea of the West and Its Opponents (1998), argues that Western success sprang from a hard‑edged fusion of Roman order, Germanic liberty, Christian morality, and Smithian economics, rather than being a single disgraceful arc from Greco‑Roman‐paganism to secular Enlightenment that bypassed the Middle Ages. Razib asks Gress how he would have written Plato to NATO today, more than 25 years later, and he says he would have emphasized Christianity's role in creating a unified Western culture out of Greco-Roman and Germanic diversity more. Gress also reiterates that he does not deny the Greek foundation of Western Civilization, but rather, his work was a corrective to a very thin and excessively motivated and partisan narrative that stripped out vast periods of European history. They also discuss Gress' own own peculiar identity, the son of an American, born to a Danish mother, raised in Denmark who converted to Catholicism as an adult, and how that all fits into a broader European identity. They also discuss the impact of mass immigration on the national identities of Europe in the last generation, and Gress' opinions as to the European future. Razib also asks Gress about the role that evolutionary ideas may have in shaping human history, and how his own views may have changed since From Plato to NATO. They also discuss when it is plausible to say that the West was a coherent idea, and whether the Protestant Reformation was the beginning of the end for the unitary civilization that was Latin Christendom.

Philly native DJ Matpat is in the hot seat this mix with some tasty cuts of House for your ear holes! "This mix was recorded in one take at Say No More, a little lounge in Philly with a great Soundsystem and booth. I selected tracks to align around the sound of my latest single ‘Deeper In Love', a classic vocal house track that has helped open up another lane in my productions. Every track on here I love, some new, some old, but all straight up house music for a feel good dancefloor." Between fronting his label CLUBBY BOY & continuing his 10 year running party CLUB CONGRESS in both Philadelphia and New York, 2025 is looking to be an exciting year for the American producer. @matpat

Den radikala rörelsen MOVE hamnar ofta i konfrontation med polisen. 1985 släpper polisen en bomb på deras hus. 11 personer dör, inklusive 5 barn. Nya avsnitt från P3 Dokumentär hittar du först i Sveriges Radio Play. MOVE är en radikal rörelse som strävar bort från det moderna samhället, grundad på 1970-talet av John Africa i Philadelphia. De kallar jorden för Mama och protesterar för djurens rättigheter och mot polisbrutalitet. De sparar ut sitt hår i dreads och ser sig som en familj.Den 13 maj 1985 omringar hundratals poliser MOVE-huset. Flera MOVE-medlemmar sitter i fängelse efter att en polis dödats i en våldsam konfrontation 1978. Några år senare flyttar rörelsen till Osage Avenue 6221 i Cobbs Creek i västra Philadelphia där spänningar med grannar och myndigheter fortsätter att växa. När gruppen vägrar att lämna huset utbryter en skottlossning som varar i timmar. På eftermiddagen släpper polisen en bomb från helikoptern mot huset. Bomben antänder en brand som myndigheterna medvetet låter brinna. Branden sprider sig okontrollerat och förstör 61 hem i kvarteret. Elva personer dör, inklusive fem barn. Endast två personer överlever. Hundratals blir hemlösa och händelsen kom senare att beskrivas som en av dom mest förödande dagarna i Philadelphias historia. Nästan 40 år senare aktualiseras händelsen igen då det visar sig att Penn museum haft kvarlevor av barnen som dött i branden. Medverkande: Linn Washington Jr, journalist. Jim Berghaier, fd polis. Ramona Africa, MOVE-medlem och överlevare av branden. Janine Africa, MOVE-medlem. Janet Africa, MOVE-medlem. Eddie Africa, MOVE-medlem. Mike Africa Jr, MOVE-medlem. Andino Ward, pappa till “Birdie”. Shebaka Mnambatha, lärare, bodde i Cobbs Creek 1985. Atiya Ola Sankofa, bodde i Cobbs Creek 1985. Paul Wolff Mitchell, professor Amsterdam University. En dokumentär av: Paloma Vangpreecha. Producent: Hanna Frelin. Dokumentären är producerad 2025.

What's up, everyone? Welcome back to the channel! Today, we've got a wild story that proves when you roll with a motorcycle club, the actions of a few can come back to haunt the whole crew—no matter where they are. If you and your boys get into trouble in Virginia, don't be shocked if your brothers in Philly get their clubhouse doors kicked in. That's right, there's no “I” in MC, and today's news shows how everyone can pay the price for a few bad moves. Here's the scoop: Prince William County police, backed by a massive task force of state, federal, and local law enforcement, dropped the hammer Wednesday morning. They hit 14 locations with search warrants, arresting over a dozen suspected motorcycle club members tied to a fight and shooting outside the Babylon Cafe in Woodbridge earlier this spring. We're talking raids in Woodbridge, Manassas, Nokesville, Stafford, Linden, Falls Church, Hampton Roads, and—get this—two spots in Philadelphia. That's a long reach for one incident!So, what's the takeaway? In this episode, we'll discuss: • What triggered this multi-city raid • How club affiliation spreads legal consequences across state lines • The deeper issue of collective accountability in MC culture • And why every club should be paying close attention to how this case unfolds Join Black Dragon, Lavish T. Williams, and Logic as we dissect this coordinated takedown and remind everyone on the set: Brotherhood is powerful — but it comes with a price when things go sideways. Watch live on: Black Dragon Biker TV: /blackdragonbikertv Lavish T. Williams: /@lavishtwilliams Keep It Logical: /keepitlogical In the MC world, one bad call can bring heat to the whole brotherhood.

My guest today on the Online for Authors podcast is Christine Sadry, author of the book 13 Years Lost. Christine Sadry was born in Krasne, Poland, and was adopted in 1964 by a Polish American couple who lived in the United States. After graduating from West Catholic Girls' High School in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, Christine worked at the United States Social Security Administration from 1973 to 1979. She started her 31-year career with the United Nations in 1979. Christine was a single mother to her daughter and the wife of a United Nations diplomat. After dedicating most of her life to service, she now resides in Naples, Florida. In my book review, I stated Unspoken is a gut-wrenching historical fiction detailing one young girl's experience during the Dust Bowl in the Texas panhandle. If you are looking for a simple read with no drama, then this is not for you. However, if you want the hard, gritty truth about life during the dustbowl of the 1930s, then run right out and grab your copy. We see one dozen years of Ruby's life starting at the tender age of 11. She has lost her baby sister and grandmother to dust pneumonia, also known as the brown plague, and almost succumbs herself. That's when her father sends her away to live with a cousin in Waco, and Ruby's entire life unwinds. We also see snippets of her mother's life - a woman confined to a mental institution. And Jan did a remarkable job showing how both those lives intertwined! I was horrified by conditions at the state welfare home for children as well as the insane asylum. It makes me wonder how anyone could survive either place - and how a child like Ruby Lee figured out not only have to survive but eventually thrive. Although a difficult book to read because of the raw honesty, it was well worth the effort. A definite 5 stars.

In a first for us hear at The Wolf, we're rebooting a previous episode with cool, never before heard material. On Episode 221 we did our usual track by track, in-depth analysis of Eric Clapton's Behind The Sun as it turned 40. It was a bit of a return to form for Clapton after he had worked to clean himself up and went platinum after some less than stellar albums in the early 80s. Still, songs She's Waiting and Forever Man turned out to be solid hits for Eric. Warner Brothers wanted the album to be a hit so they employed the hottest man in the business at the time, Phil Collins, to take Eric and his band down to Montserrat to put together a hit. However, Warner wasn't thrilled with the results so they had Eric come to LA to cover some songs written by Jerry Lynn Williams with some of the best session musicians of the day (and of all time). Eric's longtime guitar tech, Lee Dickson, has appeared on our show a couple of times before including on Ep 242 with Alan Hunter of MTV talking about Live Aid from Philadelphia. Lee gives us some color on how things went down in Montserrat, how a young producer almost ruined a six figure Martin guitar, how Sting popped up to say hello and contribute to the sessions and how Lee taught himself to swim while everyone else was at the beach. He also sheds some light on the LA sessions that Ted Templeman oversaw and how psyched Clapton was to work with some of the world's best session musicians like Steve Lukather, Greg Phillinganes and eventual member of his touring band, Nathan East. Lee tells a hilarious story about working with songwriter Jerry Lynn Williams and the character he was. Lee talks about the cool stuff they did making the album, we offer our track by track review including songs from the sessions that didn't make the album (one track made it into Back To The Future) and at the end he gives some inside information on what he does to make his artists sound incredible and life in rock n roll. It's a special edition we think you'll love.

Welcome back to All One Song, A Neil Young Podcast presented by Aquarium Drunkard. We're spending the summer talking to a few of our favorite artists and writers about their favorite Neil Young song. This week, you're getting two fantastic guests for the price of one: Meg Baird and Charlie Saufley. Meg first came to my attention thanks to her work with the innovative Philadelphia psych-folk collective Espers, and since then she's created a pretty much flawless solo career — her most recent record, 2023's Furling, is a perfect showcase for her pristine guitar work and beautiful vocals. Charlie Saufley co-produced that record with Meg and the duo also played in Heron Oblivion with Ethan Miller and Noel Von Harmonson — a group that only managed one studio record during their existence, but that's ok. That one studio record was awesome. Charley also played in the Bay Area psychedelic rock group Assemble Head in Sunburst Sound; he's a killer guitarist, and — like Meg — is a serious Neil head. That last fact should be apparent in the tune Meg and Charlie selected for their All One Song appearance: “Interstate.” This brilliantly moody number is a strong candidate for the best Neil Young song that barely anyone knows about. Though you probably know about it if you're here. Neil debuted “Interstate” onstage in 1985 with the International Harvesters. But like so many of his strongest songs during that era, it was set aside for reasons that only Shakey can fathom. A few years later, producer David Briggs convinced him to cut the song with Crazy Horse during the Ragged Glory sessions. It's an incredibly haunting performance, with skeletal acoustic guitars and high, lonesome Horse harmonies. But Neil still wasn't feeling it —we guess “Farmer John” needed to be heard! Finally in 1996, that Ragged Glory performance was released on the Big Time CD single and as a vinyl only bonus track on Broken Arrow. These days, you can get it on the recent “Smell The Horse” edition of Ragged Glory. So yeah, it's a long, twisted story, as is the case with a lot of things in the Neil Young world. But “Interstate” deserves a place in the pantheon of Neil classics, regardless of its relative obscurity. It's this kind of song that turns a casual fan into, well, an obsessive, promising that there's always more buried treasure lurking in the Shakey archives.

Ask us a Question or just let us know what you think!When it comes to NFL offseason strategy, front office decisions often make more headlines than on-field performance. The Jets' recent signings of Sauce Gardner and Garrett Wilson to four-year extensions represent a seismic shift for a franchise that historically lets talent walk. While Gardner's playing style differs dramatically from shutdown corners of the past—playing 7-8 yards off receivers rather than press coverage—the financial commitment signals a new era under Aaron Glenn's leadership.Meanwhile, the Giants' mishandling of Saquon Barkley's departure epitomizes organizational dysfunction. The casual phone call from a general manager with "feet up on the desk" instead of a face-to-face meeting shows a fundamental misunderstanding of how to treat generational talent. Now watching Barkley flourish with the rival Eagles, Giants fans face another rebuilding phase with draft pick Abdul Carter offering a glimmer of defensive hope.Jerry Jones emerges as a cautionary tale of ego-driven ownership. Despite Dallas's consistent talent acquisition, Jones habitually undervalues his stars until it's too late, creating a revolving door that prevents championship contention. This stands in stark contrast to well-managed franchises like Philadelphia and San Francisco, where organizational alignment creates sustainable success.The conversation shifts to the controversial quarterback rankings that inexplicably place Super Bowl quarterback Jalen Hurts ninth behind less accomplished signal-callers. This disconnect between on-field achievement and perceived value highlights the subjective nature of talent evaluation in today's NFL.After analyzing betting odds for division winners, we conclude that despite the statistical rarity of Super Bowl rematches, the Chiefs and Eagles remain the class of their respective conferences, with teams like the Ravens, Bills, Commanders, and Lions positioned as credible challengers.What football storylines are you most interested in as training camps approach?

“My son said, so we can't wear green anymore? And that killed me.” -C.J. Gardner-Johnson In this humbling and unfiltered episode of The Pivot, Super Bowl Champion C.J. Gardner-Johnson sits down with Ryan Clark, Fred Taylor, and Channing Crowder to open up like never before and sets record straight on many questions and rumors surrounding his name and image. The outspoken safety gets real about the highs and lows of his NFL journey — from being traded and dealing with the label of having a “bad reputation,” to playing a key role in Philadelphia's Super Bowl run and the lessons he's learned along the way. Off the bat, he addresses a recent rumor involving him and NY Giants wide receiver Malik Nabers and leaves no gray area on his side which leads into a deeper discussion around how C.J. is viewed in the NFL. He talks about what it felt like to be misunderstood in the league, how his passion is often mistaken for arrogance, and how those perceptions have impacted his career. C.J. reflects on his time with the Saints and then Lions and finally feeling at home in Philadelphia after winning a championship this past season only to be faced with his biggest pivot yet. Dealing with major heartbreak and trying to sort through confusion, C.J. shares how the darkest times have taught him most about leadership, ,maturity, and accountability. Struggling with things out of his control, his voice full of emotion as he shares to Ryan, Fred and Channing how hard it was on his kids to experience the recent ups and downs of his career. Despite the anguish he felt, C.J. expresses his respect and gratitude for veterans like Lane Johnson in Philly and Malcom Jenkins in New Orleans, holding on to invaluable life lessons. With rare vulnerability and honesty, CJ shares a powerful moment of remorse — expressing what he's sorry for and how he's grown from it. Now entering a new chapter with the Houston Texans, CJ talks about the delayed excitement of joining his new team and building a strong relationship with head coach DeMeco Ryans. He speaks candidly about the trust DeMeco has already shown in him in one unexpected phone call. CJ talks about how he's ready to win and be a part of a young, hungry team with a fierce competitor as the team's leader in Quarterback CJ Stroud. Looking forward to his fresh start to help him mature further both as a player and as a man, CJ tells Ryan, Channing and Fred he's ready for this next chance to be the one where the noise around who he is on and off the field is finally quieted. This isn't just about football — it's about growth, redemption, and the journey of a man who's still writing his story. Tap in for a conversation that's raw, real, and full of heart.
