Nous sommes le 7 novembre 1945, à Liège, à l'issue des trois semaines de procès de « La Légia », organe de presse collaborateur. Directeurs, journalistes, employés, ouvriers du quotidien ont été inculpés en bloc et traduits devant le Conseil de Guerre. Un reporter du journal « La Meuse » écrit : « C'est fini, le procès de « La Légia » a vécu.(…) Justice est faite. Le compte de chacun a été établi avec la sévérité que réclamaient des trahisons concertées, trahisons d'autant plus graves qu'elles furent commises par le truchement d'une presse vendue à l'ennemi. La mort punira les plus coupables, les travaux forcés et la prison donneront aux autres le temps de méditer sur leurs crimes, de sentir le remord monter en leur cœur. Une fois de plus, il est démontré que le journalisme sous l'occupant constitue le plus grand des attentats contre le moral des populations. Ainsi l'a dit le verdict. Les valets de plume sont jugés par la loi et par l'opinion publique. Le procès de « La légia » a vécu. La presse libre en sort grandie, plus honorée et plus respectée. » Parmi les condamnés figure Pierre Hubermont. Il fut considéré, dans les années 1930, comme « le plus talentueux de nos jeunes romanciers ». Auteur de « Treize hommes dans la mine » un ouvrage que l'on présentait comme un grand moment de la littérature prolétarienne. Engagé très à gauche dans le Parti Ouvrier Belge, il avait dénoncé durement, en 1935, les atrocités du régime nazi. Comment se fait-il que, cinq ans, plus tard, Hubermont dérive vers l'Ordre Nouveau et collabore avec l'ennemi, d'abord comme journaliste puis en animant la Communauté Culturelle Wallonne. Retour sur le parcours d'un homme tristement complexe … Invité : Daniel Charneux, auteur, avec Claude Duray et Léon Fourmanoit, de « Pierre Hubermont, écrivain prolétarien, de l'ascension à la chute » ; éd.

We revisit some beloved children's television series from the seventies and eighties this week as Chris Diamond returns to talk about those occasions when Spike Milligan would pop up as a special guest in shows such as Super Gran, The Sooty Show, Pob's Programme, Jackanory, The Muppet Show, Number 73, Tiswas and The Ratties (which Spike narrated). Wiping a nostalgia-fuelled tear from his eye, Chris regrets the lack of original children's programming which has cut-through these days and warmly reminisces about other shows from the period such as The Wombles, The Smurfs and The Trap Door (with Willie Rushton). There's also time for a game of 'Which Major Celebrity Of The Eighties Didn't Guest Star In Super Gran?' and an attempt by Chris to remember the lyrics to that show's infectiously catchy theme tune. With huge thanks to the exceptional Roger Langridge for this episode's artwork!

We're back at Camp Echo Mountain, which continues to be a mess thanks to the disturbingly unprofessional Lacey Cavannah. As Lila pretends to be an outdoor type to impress Bo and Liz mopes over red-lipped Pob, sorry, Joey, Jessica is feeling quite smug - her vow to stay away from boys has left her the happiest member of the trio. But of course she can't fight her true nature for long! And Liz's crush isn't her only problem, as her own campers and the evil Nicole continue to torment her. Will justice ever be served?

„Tradícia našich kritických no pokojných protestov je veľmi cenná“, hovorí riaditeľka Via Iuris Katarína Batková. „Je dôležité je mať odvahu postaviť sa za občianske práva“, hovorí. Možnosť vystúpiť na tribúne pred bratislavským štyridstať tisícovým zástupom brala ako „občiansku česť“, zároveň cítila potrebu „poďakovať sa, že tam prišli, lebo je to veľká vec“.Pobúrenie, ohradenie sa pociťované ako povinnosť a sedemnásobná výzva. Kroky premiéra Fica a jeho ľudí vyprovokovali ďalšiu otvorenú iniciatívu. Po stovkách psychológov a psychiatrov, po akademickej obci, pedagogických a odborných zamestnancoch v školstve, po skautoch, či cirkvách a desiatkach tisícov občanov na námestiach sa ozýva aj napádaný mimovládny sektor. Pod jeho otvorený list sa už podpísala päťstovka mimovládnych organizácii. Platforma pre demokraciu v ňom sformulovala pobúrenie nad správou vecí verejných a z príklonu k Putinovmu Rusku. Ale aj výhradu voči krokom vlády, ktoré idú proti samotným princípom demokracie. Minister obrany Robert Kaliňák už stihol cez víkend odkomunikovať, že vláda chystá mimovládkam finančný audit.Aká je cesta práva pre Slovensko?

Vláda chce do podzimích sněmovních voleb stihnout prosadit slibovanou revizi dávek. Ta má sjednotit čtyři státní podpory do jedné. Komu změna pomůže? A nezhorší se naopak životní situace některých lidí, jak varují experti? Hostem Ptám se já byl ministr práce a sociálních věcí a místopředseda vlády Marian Jurečka (KDU-ČSL). Podle plánů ministerstva by po reformě od letošního července měla nová jednotná dávka nahradit příspěvek a doplatek na bydlení, příspěvek na živobytí a přídavek na dítě. Podle šéfa rezortu práce a sociálních věcí Mariana Jurečky (KDU-ČSL) není cílem reformy ušetřit, ale pomoc státu lépe zacílit.Nová jednotná dávka by se měla odstupňovat podle příjmu, vedle kterého se bude posuzovat také majetek. Pobíranou částku může zvednout bonus za práci. Experti na sociální politiku a zástupci organizací na pomoc potřebným ale nová pravidla kritizují. Varují, že lidem s nízkým výdělkem by mohla podpora po reformě klesnout proti dnešku o několik tisíc korun. Zákon s dávkovou reformou projednává Sněmovna, podle dřívějších vyjádření ministra Jurečky by ještě mohlo dojít ke zmírnění jejích pravidel. Jaké změny čekají reformovanou sociální dávku? Jak zásadní bude transformace podpory v nezaměstnanosti i zákoníku práce? A čím chce koalice Spolu ještě přesvědčit voliče? --Podcast Ptám se já.

[SEGMENT 2-1] Winning back the country 1 - Google's ad policy - Advertorial I will be posting a new segment for members of the Subscribers. Thanks for the wonderful feedback on the other show. I promise this one will be just as riveting. And I will not post it outside for others. That's my reward to you for helping me with the cost of freedom. It's not cheap, and my wife reminds me of our sacrifice, daily. Visit TKJN.com to see all that we do, all that you help us to do when you support my work. POB 542, Higley AZ 85236 for those who want to help out or just send a card or letter   How do you defeat the giant that determines your voice. Google is that giant. I got an email from Google, and it's alarming. It is a company who curtails our freedom of speech. Consider that what Google does blatantly violates that right.   We do not allow content that: makes claims that are demonstrably false and could significantly undermine participation or trust in an electoral or democratic process. Examples: information about public voting procedures, political candidate eligibility based on age or birthplace, election results, or census participation that contradicts official government records promotes harmful health claims, or relates to a current, major health crisis and contradicts authoritative scientific consensus. Examples: Anti-vaccine advocacy, denial of the existence of medical conditions such as AIDS or Covid-19, gay conversion therapy contradicts authoritative scientific consensus on climate change.   There is nothing about these subjects that should have allowed this nonsense to occur.  [SEGMENT 2-2] Winning back the country 2 - Trump's victories   [X] SB – Trump incited an erection   An acquaintance of mine reminded me of Trump's victories. But not in the classic sense. We know that President Trump won against the nonsense of him colluding with the Russians. He then defeated the Democrats in two impeachments. Then the Deep State swamp rats got him in 2020, or so they thoughts.   Title Suggestions"The Trump Takedown Tour: Dynasties, Deep State, and Ironies Unfolded""From Bush to Biden: How Trump Toppled America's Political Royalty""One Man vs. Washington: The Trump Chronicles""Trump's Wins Against the Dynasties and the Deep State Drama""The Fall of the Political Titans: Trump's Quiet Revolution"[SEGMENT 2-3] Winning back the country 3An acquaintance of mine reminded me of Trump's victories. But not in the classic sense. We know that President Trump won against the nonsense of him colluding with the Russians. He then defeated the Democrats in two impeachments. Then the Deep State swamp rats got him in 2020, or so they thoughts. The Unprecedented Fall of Dynasties Donald Trump didn't just enter politics; he detonated a political neutron bomb, reducing dynasties and institutions to rubble. To understand the magnitude of his victories, we must dissect the legacies of those he upended—and explore how these interconnected families and power structures came to dominate Washington, D.C., only to be obliterated by the one-man wrecking crew I affectionately call, The Donald. In these wars, Trump toppled political titans in a not so quiet revolution. The Bush Dynasty: From Bluebloods to Afterthoughts Let's begin with the Bush family. They epitomized Washington royalty, and their political journey began with Prescott Bush, a U.S. Senator from Connecticut and financier with deep Wall Street ties. George H.W. Bush expanded the family's clout as CIA Director, Vice President, and eventually President. Son of H.W. and older brother George "W" Bush would follow in the footsteps of his father, proving that the Bush political apparatus was a well-oiled machine—intertwined with defense contractors, oil conglomerates, and the military-industrial complex. Younger brother to W, Jeb Bush was elected as the governor of Florida. The role was considered a stepping stone to Jeb's inevitable role as president. In the 2016 race to the White House, Jeb Bush was a foregone as the Republican candidate, and ultimately the office in which both his father and brother had served--a feat no family in American history has ever accomplished. Instead, "Low Energy" Jeb was humiliated by Trump during the 2016 GOP primary. Trump's taunts reduced Jeb's campaign to a punchline (“Please clap”) eventually. Further, Trump exposed how disconnected the Bushes had become from the Republican base. The family's once formidable influence crumbled as Trump made the GOP his party, leaving the Bushes grasping for relevance. [SEGMENT 2-4] Winning back the country 4   The Clintons: From “Arkansas Hillbillies” to Fallen Aristocracy The Clintons' ascent from Little Rock to political royalty is legendary. Bill Clinton's charisma and Hillary Clinton's ambition transformed them into one of the most influential political families in modern history. Their control over the Democratic Party was unshakable—until Trump emerged. Hillary's 2016 loss to Trump wasn't just a political defeat; it was a repudiation of Clintonism. The Clinton Foundation, once a money-magnet for global elites, faced scrutiny and decline as Trump's presidency shined a light on the pay-to-play culture that defined their empire. Bill and Hillary, who once believed the White House was their birthright, now find themselves sidelined. The Obama Machine: Legacy Players with Little to Show Barack Obama's presidency was marked by soaring rhetoric, cultural symbolism, and the establishment of a political apparatus designed to endure. Figures like Susan Rice, John Brennan, and others from his administration transitioned seamlessly into roles that allowed them to target Trump. However, Trump systematically dismantled their achievements, from pulling out of the Iran nuclear deal to appointing judges who undermined the progressive agenda. More significantly, Trump exposed the hollowness of Obama's supposed “scandal-free” administration, revealing how figures like James Comey and John Kerry weaponized institutions against him. And while Obama's legacy appointees did manage to dethrone Trump, their victory turned out to be short-lived. The Bidens: The Crooked Crown Joe Biden represented the Democrats' last, desperate attempt to consolidate power. Trump's relentless focus on Hunter Biden's laptop, Ukrainian corruption, and the family's LLC schemes painted a damning portrait of systemic graft. Despite media efforts to shield the Bidens, Trump exposed their operations in ways that even Democrats now begrudgingly acknowledge. Joe Biden's presidency, a fraught combination of incompetence and malfeasance, underscores Trump's victory. The “most votes in history” president is now a symbol of failure, corruption, and political overreach. Hypocrisy, Irony, and the Deep State The interdependence of these families—Clintons, Bushes, Obamas, Bidens—and their shared animosity toward Trump speaks volumes. They were Washington's version of medieval feudal lords, trading favors and power while America's middle class bore the cost. Trump shattered this illusion. His presidency was a mirror exposing their hypocrisies:The Bushes, who profited from endless wars, denounced Trump's America First policies while pretending to care about national unity.The Clintons, champions of gutter politics, raked in millions from foreign despots while lecturing the public on ethics.The Obamas, race-pimp who decried wealth inequality, became multi-millionaires from book deals, Netflix, and corporate speaking gigs.The Bidens, cloaked in “Scranton Joe” populism, exemplified nepotism and greed.The Final Boss: The Deep State The Deep State is the last domino that needs to fall. Trump has battled shadowy bureaucracies and intelligence networks since his first campaign, courtesy of all the aforementioned players. These are the forces that orchestrated the Russia collusion hoax, the impeachments, and the raid on Mar-a-Lago with a "kill order". Trump's resilience in the face of such unprecedented opposition—multiple indictments, attacks on his family, and even attempts on his life—underscores his singularity. Washington, D.C., isn't just afraid of Trump; it's terrified of what his return represents: the dismantling of their carefully constructed web of influence. Trump's Legacy: A Movement, Not a Moment Trump's most significant victory isn't his return to power; it's the movement he's created. By exposing the rot in D.C., he's shifted the Overton Window and redefined what's possible. The dynasties may regroup, but their mystique is gone. As Trump once famously said, “They're not after me; they're after you. I'm just standing in the way.” With each victory, he proves that statement truer than ever. Trump didn't just defeat the families of Washington. He defeated the idea that they were untouchable. He showed them that if cut, they too bleed. That, above all, may be his greatest triumph.   An acquaintance of mine reminded me of Trump's victories. But not in the classic sense. We know that President Trump won against the nonsense of him colluding with the Russians. He then defeated the Democrats in two impeachments. Then the Deep State swamp rats got him in 2020, or so they thoughts. But let's take a step back and look at what else he defeated, that most people haven't considered.

In this powerful and educational episode of It Happened To Me, we sit down with Rachel Schreiman who turned her personal struggle with vision loss into a mission to support others. Rachel shares her story of resilience after experiencing two episodes of Non-Arteritic Anterior Ischemic Optic Neuropathy (NAION), a rare and debilitating eye condition caused by insufficient blood flow to the optic nerve. These episodes left her with significant central vision loss, but instead of giving up, Rachel embraced a new path.   Rachel Schreiman is a CPA and musician who holds an MBA from the University of California, Irvine. In 2019 while working as the Controller for a trade association in Washington DC, she suffered two episodes of Non-arteritic anterior ischemic optic neuropathy (NAION), rendering her legally blind with significant central vision loss. After receiving rehabilitation care and training she started a new "career" devoted to others with low vision. She now works for Dr. Suleiman Alibhai OD, a low vision rehabilitation optometrist, and as a Resource Navigator for the Prevention of Blindness Society of Metropolitan Washington (POB). Both of these positions allow her to give back to others with low vision by sharing information about resources and demonstrating how to use many of the devices, assistive technologies and applications available that allow users to live full and independent lives.   Key Topics Discussed:   The Onset of NAION:  Rachel recounts the initial episode of NAION in 2019, the symptoms she experienced, and her journey to diagnosis. She describes NAION as a "stroke in the eye," explaining how lack of blood flow to the optic nerve led to significant vision loss.   Risk Factors and Triggers for NAION: Rachel discusses possible risk factors, such as sleep apnea and cardiovascular issues, which can contribute to the development of NAION. She shares insights into lifestyle adjustments and precautions she now takes to help manage her health.   Navigating a Second Episode:   Five months after the first NAION episode, Rachel suffered another in her other eye. She reflects on the impact of this second event, the rapid response from her medical team, and the steps she took to prepare for further adaptation to vision loss.   Diagnosing and Treating NAION:   Rachel describes the challenges of diagnosing NAION, which can be easily mistaken for other conditions such as multiple sclerosis, brain tumors, or stroke. She also explains the diagnostic process and the types of specialists who are essential for accurate diagnosis and care.   Adapting to Vision Loss: Rachel opens up about the difficult decision to stop driving and the profound impact it had on her independence. She shares the changes she made in her home and daily routines, along with the support she received from her husband and family, which helped her navigate life with low vision.   Coping Strategies for Low Vision:   Rachel reveals the practical and emotional strategies she uses to cope with vision loss, from using assistive technologies to finding new hobbies and ways to stay connected with her passions.   Advocacy and Empowerment in Low Vision Care:   Through her roles with Dr. Alibhai and the POB, Rachel describes her work in educating others about low vision resources, providing hands-on training with assistive devices, and guiding patients and their families through the journey to independence. She also highlights the services POB offers for those with low vision and encourages listeners to seek support early in their vision loss journey.

Najvyššia slovenská futbalová súťaž má svoju prvú tretinu za sebou a každý jeden zápas nesie svoj vlastný príbeh či momenty, ktoré sa podpíšu pod výsledok samotného stretnutia alebo doznievajú ešte aj niekoľko dní po ňom. Výrazné rezonancie ostali aj po najslávnejšom slovenskom futbalovom derby, o ktorom porozprával v podcaste Striedame! futbalový redaktor ŠPORT.sk Ján Jasenka.Súčasťou redakcie ŠPORT.sk je už od roku 2007 a jeho zameraním je práve futbal, v ktorom sa venuje najvyššej slovenskej futbalovej súťaži, ako aj dianiu v našej reprezentácii. Ján Jasenka prispieva k slovenskému futbalovému dianiu aj komentármi či názormi a tým posledným vzbudil veľký rozruch. Najmä na fanúšikovskej scéne, keď poukázal na antisemitizmus či rasizmus, ktorý podľa jeho názoru prehliadame či vedome zľahčujeme.„Veľmi sa mi nepáčilo, že slovo ‚žid‘ bolo používané ako niečo zlé alebo nadávka. Niečo, čo znamená urážku a hanbu. Pobúrilo ma to a možno ešte viac fakt, že ako keby si to nikto nevšímal a bolo to každému úplne jedno. Neviem, v akej dobe to dnes žijeme, keď zlý je ten, ktorý na to poukáže a nie to, že sa to dnes stále deje,“ upozornil Jasenka po derby medzi Spartakom Trnava a ŠK Slovan Bratislava (0:1).Nielen o tom sa s naším redaktorom porozprávali Muťo a Julo v najnovšej časti podcastu Striedame! na ŠPORT.sk, keďže sme nahliadli aj do práce futbalového novinára na Slovensku, porozprávali sa o jeho skúsenostiach z tohto fachu a dozvedeli sa, že aj futbalový novinár môže fandiť niekomu konkrétnemu.

CELÝ ROZHOVOR V DÉLCE 54 MIN. JEN NA HTTPS://HEROHERO.CO/CESTMIR Nechápu, jak náš gaučový člověk může říct, že je unavený z války na Ukrajině, říká zahraniční zpravodaj Martin Dorazín. Připouští, že každého to nemusí bavit. Pokud se nechce zajímat, tak ať to nedělá a přepne na jiný kanál s reality show z ostrova nahatých lidí. Ale cítit se unavený? Z toho se mu chce zvracet. Za mimořádně krátkozraké považuje také poukazovat na to, že vláda vynakládá na pomoc Ukrajině moc peněz. My jsme válku nevyprovokovali, neseme náklady Putinovy politiky a účet je třeba poslat do Kremlu. Sám v okupované zemi působí bezmála tři roky, nejdéle ze všech českých novinářů. Pobývat přímo tam je pro něj důležité, ví díky tomu, čím běžní Ukrajinci prochází, a zná jejich skutečné problémy. Zpočátku ho jejich příběhy doháněly až k slzám, postupně se s tím naučil žít. Zvykl si i na to, že v Oděse nad přístavem, kde bydlí, létají poslední dobou rakety čím dál častěji. I jejich sledování na mobilu se pro něj stalo rutinou, znervóznit ho ale dokážou pořád. Hrůzostrašné je to zejména v noci, kdy se po půlnoci vypne pouliční osvětlení a zvuk se rozléhá nočním tichem. Ještě horší jsou ale drony, u kterých často ani není poznat, jestli jsou ukrajinské, nebo ruské. Přesto chce zůstat a být v centru dění, i s vědomím toho, že to nebude na měsíce, ale zřejmě roky. Jaká je podle něj budoucnost Ukrajiny a jak se za uplynulé dekády změnila, existuje „osa zla“, má vůbec smysl v Rusku budovat opozici a je na místě používat přívlastek Putinovo Rusko? I tom jsme s Martinem Dorazínem mluvili.

On this week's episode, I have TikToker and EMT Jack Raia. Tune in as we talk about how he uses his content to help educate people in health care. We also talk about how he balances making sure his content doesn't take away from the potential severity of health situations. Show NotesJack Raia on TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@whatsgood24.7.365Jack Raia on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@WhatsGood24-7Michael's Online Screenwriting Course - https://michaeljamin.com/courseFree Screenwriting Lesson - https://michaeljamin.com/freeJoin My Newsletter - https://michaeljamin.com/newsletterAutogenerated TranscriptJack Raia:
Cameras and healthcare tend to not really mix very well, especially when it comes to me just running around my cell phone camera. So that's definitely been a major roadblock in kind of the day of life kind of stuffMichael Jamin:
You're listening to. What the hell is Michael Jamin talking about? I'll tell you what I'm talking about. I'm talking about creativity, I'm talking about writing, and I'm talking about reinventing yourself through the arts.Michael Jamin:
Hey everyone, it's Michael Jamin. Welcome back to another episode of my show, which I've rebranded as the Michael Jamon Show, because I want to make sure that there's more me in every mention of the show. And as you know, mostly I've spoken about, I've interviewed screenwriters, people, I've worked with directors, actors, and now after doing this for two years, I want to open it up to more people. We're just doing interesting things and there's a whole universe I don't know about, and so I'm learning about, and my next guest is going to teach us a little about that. His name is Jack Raya. He's the host of What's Good, 2, 4, 7. He's a big talker, so we're going to learn all about that. Jack, welcome. Thank you for joining me.Jack Raia:
Thanks for having me on, Michael. I really appreciate the opportunity.Michael Jamin:
Yeah. So let me tell everyone a little about you. So as far as I can tell, maybe I'm wrong, you're an EMT, you're in New York, right? Where in New York are you?Jack Raia:
I'm on Long Island in Nas County, long Island.Michael Jamin:
Interesting. My nephew's an E, he's a paramedic, actually. So I know a little about that word world, but you started, you have a very popular channel on TikTok where basically you act out, for the most part, you kind of act out scenes of what it's like to be an EMT. Am I right?Jack Raia:
Yeah. Yeah. I categorized it as EMS, sketch comedy, I guess is what I've labeled it.Michael Jamin:
And then what inspired you to start all this?Jack Raia:
So it was honestly a series of coincidences that got me into TikTok. The first instance was back in the summer of 2020, a friend of mine just posted a random video on TikTok, and it was this new app that I wasn't even on yet. It was kind of labeled the app that's just for middle school girls to do dances on. Right. No one really knew what it was yet.Michael Jamin:
That's exactly right. That's what I thought it was. Yeah, right.Jack Raia:
So my buddy posted a video, it was lighting off fireworks or something dumb, and the video blew up. The algorithm just picked it up, and it ended up getting a couple million, I think over 3 million views or something like that. And my buddy had zero followers on TikTok. So that was the first instance of like, wow, this whole algorithm base for you page is like, holy crap, I guess it works. So then that summer I was like, all right, well, I guess I'll give it a shot. So I was the captain lifeguard at the time, and because of Covid that summer, we had to figure out a way to test the rookie lifeguards, drill them on saves without making physical contact, which is a little bit strange, but it's the way it ended up working. So I came up with the idea of having them save traffic cones. I was throwing traffic cones into the deep end, and I posted a video of one of those drills, and it blew up just like my buddies did. So I went from zero followers and zero views to 6 million something views and 11,000 followers. So that was the first instance of like, wow, this level of attention is so easy and addicting that I think I'm going to give this app a little bit of a shot. ButMichael Jamin:
Do you have other aspirations? I mean, you got a real job, you have a career.Jack Raia:
Oh, yeah, of course. But given how I discovered the algorithm, I was like, you know what? Maybe I can do some other stuff on here. So I was experimenting with a bunch of different types of videos and characters. I used to do an Eminem character, like the rapper, Eminem Burns his finger on the stove, just a bunch of crap that I was just making in my free time. But then that following school year, a buddy of mine started doing these POV style skits, which was, I hadn't had any exposure to until I saw it on TikTok. So my buddy started doing APOV frat guy comes up to you at the bar, or POV, your Italian dad, or something like that. And at first we were like, dude, what are you doing? It's an app for just posting random crap and doing other stuff. Why are you putting yourself on there like that? But he just didn't care, and he just kept making his videos, trying to make each one better than the last. And I watched my friend one day, he had 10,000 followers and 50, a hundred, and now he's got over a million, and he moved out to la Oh, wow. And he really did it. So I watched him just not care what other people were thinking and just be consistent. And I was like, all right, well, maybe I could do this whole POB skip thing.Michael Jamin:
But your friend wants to be an actor, right?Jack Raia:
Yeah. Right.Michael Jamin:
Do you want to act as well?Jack Raia:
I mean, I would love the opportunity, definitely. My first love is definitely being an EMT and working in the S field. I have a private ambulance company job on Long Island nine one system, and I also work for an event staffing company that does everything from fashion shows to concerts to music festivals and stuff like that. So I really love doing that stuff, but I've realized through all these coincidences how lucrative social media especially TikTok can be. So I guess that's really all culminated to what I'm really doing here.Michael Jamin:
Well, tell me then, how do you monetize on TikTok?Jack Raia:
The main way is you build up enough of an audience to get brand deals. That's the way that pays the most, at least for most people.Michael Jamin:
Are you doing that?Jack Raia:
Yeah. Yeah. So the most recent, I guess notable one I had was for a video game company called Supercell that makes an iPhone game called Clash of Clans. So actually, they posted a contract through the app. So there's a creator marketplace on TikTok, and you can see different companies and scroll through and see they're offering different rates for different videos. And so I applied for this one through Supercell, and the objective was to use one of their sounds, which TikTok is pretty popular for. So when you open their app, clash of Clans, there's a pretty distinct sound that you're opening the game. So I just kind of figured I could work it humorously into an EMT skit, and it ended up doing really well.Michael Jamin:
Now are they giving you a lot of notes? Do you have to go back and forth and tell 'em what your ideas?Jack Raia:
It really depends. Every company has different wants and specifications when it comes to doing the brand deals. Some are super relaxed and they let the creator just like, Hey, do your thing, we trust you. But some others are like to nitpick and stuff like that.Michael Jamin:
But you must be worried you, you can't do that a lot because then suddenly you're the commercial channel. Right?Jack Raia:
Exactly. So you kind of got to pick and choose which ones you want to do and when there are other avenues though, the Creator fund is something I get questions about a lot. So based on the certain amount of views you get, it'll pay out a couple cents per thousand views or something like that.Michael Jamin:
Are you doing that as well?Jack Raia:
So they just changed it actually. They just released a beta program where now there's a much higher payout rate for videos that are over one minute long. So I'm kind of screwed because a lot of my videos are 30 to 50 seconds long, so I could try to stretch 'em out, but I feel like the quality of the video might take a hit at that point. But there's some people out there that they have a hundred thousand followers or something like that, and it's just them spewing their thoughts out into TikTok, and they post four or five times a day of them just talking or giving their opinion on stuff. And all these videos are minute, two minutes long, and there's people making 10, $15,000 a month off just this new beta creator program. Now,Michael Jamin:
Do you think it limits your reach, though, if you're on?Jack Raia:
So I think it has to honestly, and I'm confident in saying that TikTok is the least predictable social media platform out there. We're all at the mercy of the algorithm here, and it seems to be pretty random and definitely hard to predict. So some stuff happens to blow up, some stuff doesn't. I'll be super confident in a video that I make, and I'll be excited to post it, and it'll flop in comparison to other videos where sometimes I'll just post for the sake of consistency and just get in content out and, oh, crap, this one just blew up. All right.Michael Jamin:
What is your schedule? How often do you post?Jack Raia:
So when I started and I was really trying to give it a go, I was super adamant about sticking to one a day. No matter what, I don't care if I love the video, I just have to force people to see me every single day when I was really trying to grow. So the quantity over quality method works pretty well when you're trying to start out, but now I'm at the point where I try to be more selective and I try to make sure that video is up to standard, if you will. So I don't really stick to a hard schedule. It's more if I have a good idea and it comes to me and I'm able to flesh it out and I have an opportunity to film it, then great. But if I don't, it's like, ah, didn't get one today.Michael Jamin:
And then how long do you spend on each idea? Do you write it down? What's yourJack Raia:
Pre-production? Right. So my particular, I guess, strategy is 95% of what you hear me say on TikTok has been written down. At a certain point as I go through it, maybe stuff gets switched around or whatever, but the general premise, and I guess the pacing of the skid is totally all written down and stuff like that. A big part of my production is actually my little brother who's my cameraman, and
He's got a real knack behind the lens. I like to tell him he's, he's good at being able to keep me in frame the right way, which all of my videos have that banner title over the top. So sometimes we have to restart because my head clips into it too much and stuff like that. But other than that, it's just me and an iPhone camera. TikTok has given us the ability, or really social media in general to create content that can have a wide reach with not really a lot of equipment. So super grateful for that.Michael Jamin:
On a given day, how much time do you devote to a video?Jack Raia:
SometimesMichael Jamin:
Zero, writing it, producing it, and then posting it?Jack Raia:
Well, I've definitely gotten faster at it. So when I would start the whole process, start to finish from writing the script to getting that final take, putting a filter on it and posting it be up to two hours, sometimes in the beginning, an hour or two hours easily. But now, if I have a good seed to build a skid around, whether it's a good punchline or a premise that I like, that I can kind of mold the rest of the video around, once I get that down, the whole filming process, 15, 20 minutes for me now, sometimes 30 minutes, depending on where I am, I live next to the train tracks. So when a train goes by, it'll totally ruin my take. Or sometimes I got to wait for the neighbor to stop mowing his lawn and stuff like that. But when I'm able to just film at the pace, I'd like to film probably about 20, 30 minutes to do the filming now as opposed to an hour before.Michael Jamin:
Right. That's so interesting. And then how has this benefited you in ways that were unexpected? What has come from this?Jack Raia:
So by far, it's the amount of people that'll reach out to me through Instagram dms, or even in my comments section, telling me that my content has inspired them to take an EMT course. Oh, wow, okay. I've even had some pretty moving conversations with people where it's like, Hey, man, just got off the truck after 24 hours. Thanks for bringing me a smile. It's nice to be seen, is what people have told me. Nice to be seen shedding a little bit of light and humor on some of the grittier sides of the EMS world. So people have noticed that, and I'm like, wow, I didn't even really mean to have an impact on people like that, but I have been. So that's been really, really cool to do.Michael Jamin:
Well, I think people love e mt workers. I mean, you're there to save lives.Jack Raia:
It's kind of hard to hate on sometimes. Yeah.Michael Jamin:
But okay, but do you get haters? You must, oh yeah, ofJack Raia:
Course, of course.Michael Jamin:
And how does that affect you, and what do you do about it?Jack Raia:
So I'm thankfully at the point now where I have a large enough audience where if someone leaves me a hate comment, someone that likes my content or is following me will go to bat for me in the comment section. I definitely don't entertain trying to argue with people in the comments or dms or stuff like thatMichael Jamin:
That, do you block them or no,Jack Raia:
Not really, honestly, because not really. Sometimes getting a little bit of controversy in the comments and people arguing back and forth on each other can be good for engagement, unfortunately. But I've come to realize that no matter what kind of content you're creating, and no matter how good you are at it, there's people that are going to have negative things to say, people crap talk. Everyone from Tom Brady to the best comedians in the world, the best musicians, best artists, writers, it doesn't matter. You're going to get hate if you're putting yourself out there. People like to spread negativity for some reason. So it's just part of what comes with being, putting yourself out on the internet. So I don't really let it get to me too much.Michael Jamin:
That's it. But it's interesting that you don't block them. You might be more mature than I'm sometimes I just don't want to hear it. Just, oh, goodbye, goodbye. I don't want to look at the negativity.Jack Raia:
Thankfully, I don't get too much. I definitely got a little bit more in the beginning than I do now, and I know TikTok is pretty good at censoring a lot of stuff sometimes too good. Honestly, I've left comments that were meant to be positive on other people's pages, but it'll get flagged for being negative or insulting or something like that. So a certain percentage of negative comments won't even show up. I won't even know that they're there. But the ones that I do get, it's like, it's just part of it. It's like you got to take the good with the bad a little bit. Some of them are funny, honestly, some of them are pretty clever.Michael Jamin:
You respond to, it sounds like you respond to a lot of people. Do you respond, even kind comments, you respond to them, everyone?Jack Raia:
Yeah. Yeah. I'm definitely less responsive in my comment section than I am for my dms. If someone wants to reach out to me on Instagram and personally message me, I'm grateful for every time someone takes the time to reach out to me. I think it's crazy that people resonate with enough with what I'm creating to send me a message. I think that's crazy.Michael Jamin:
Yeah. Interesting.Jack Raia:

What the hell is Michael Jamin talking about? Here's a question I tend to ask people who are creators. Do you notice a difference between the kind of people commenting on TikTok versus let's say YouTube or Instagram?Jack Raia:
A hundred percent. There's almost like a generational gap between something like Instagram or TikTok. TikTok seems to be like the 25 and under Instagram seems to be the 18 to 35 or older. So the difference in humor and the difference in memes on each page is definitely different. And it's interesting that I'll post something on TikTok, it'll do well or comparatively will do well. And then once I load it into Instagram and I have that kind of Instagram mindset and that feel for that audience, I almost hesitate a little bit. I know that it's going to be perceived totally differently. There's a certain level of, I guess, being corny on TikTok that is being intentionally corny. They see the sarcasm in it, so it works on TikTok, but it doesn't come across that way on Instagram. So Instagram, it's just a different way that people view it. It's kind of strange, honestly.Michael Jamin:
And what about YouTube?Jack Raia:
So YouTube, I do put my stuff on there, but I don't really have enough of an audience on there to really get much engagement. I have two vlogs on there. I've made an attempt at the long form content, but it doesn't really compare to what I'm doing on TikTok and Instagram right now. I'd love to get my YouTube audience up in the numbers these days, but the only real comparisons I can make is TikTok, Instagram and Facebook are kind of the Holy Trinity of where I post my stuff and what I canMichael Jamin:
Describe as well. Now, was it difficult at first putting yourself out there? Was that hard for you? I know you were inspired by your friend, but still,Jack Raia:
It's crazy you say that because I look back at some of those older videos that I was making, and I have no idea how I had the balls to do that. I look at it now and I'm like, what was I thinking? How did I not care? I just kind of didn't, and I was kind of just enamored by seeing other people blow up on the app, especially my friend, and I was like, you know what? Screw it. Who caress?Michael Jamin:
And how long have you been doing this now?Jack Raia:
So the first time I ever posted on the app was summer of 2020. The first time I ever really tried to make POV skits and succeed that way was December, 2021, about a year and a half coming up on two years now. But it wasn't until last summer that I realized that this EMT character was what I was really going to try to stick with. So the wholeMichael Jamin:
Isn't that interesting that you naturally found your voice just by doing it over it? People struggle with that, and I kind of say the same. Just do something every day, and then you'll find your way, you'll find your voice. You'll just know what works and what doesn't work.Jack Raia:
I used to be super adamant about rotating my characters. I had success with a bartender character in the past and a bouncer. I've done a teacher, a lifeguard, a whole bunch of different stuff. And I used to be pretty adamant about, okay, I did my Gen Z cop today, so tomorrow I'm going to do the Gen Z professor, and then I'll do the lifeguard, and then I'll circle back around to the EMT character. But I got to a point where the only one that I really enjoyed doing and the one that I was the most motivated to create was the EMT character. Well,Michael Jamin:
Because that's the most authentic, that's who you are.Jack Raia:
Exactly. Right.Michael Jamin:
Yeah. You're playing a role,Jack Raia:
And I discovered how valuable it was to really focus in on a niche instead of doing this myriad of characters just being kind of labeled as that e mt guy on TikTok was pretty valuable toMichael Jamin:
How much of yourself, because you're doing sketches, and so this is a character that you've created. The character is based on yourself, but it's still a character, and you're still not showing all of us. You're not showing all of yourself. Right. And so what's the line and how did you decide on that line?Jack Raia:
I am someone that I found it much easier to play a character online than it was to naturally talk to the camera and stuff like that, which is definitely the opposite for other people. There's creators 2, 3, 10 times my size where they just hit record talk to the camera, and they have this big, beautiful, successful video. But I don't know, when it comes to my, I guess, authentic personality and putting it on TikTok, I kind of spin my tires in that regard.Michael Jamin:
Is it not comfortable for you or you don't want to?Jack Raia:
I dunno. When I go to try to do some authentic stuff like that, I don't even know what to talk about. I have no real inspiration on what the video should be about when it comes to these TikTok skits, I'll have that joke or that punchline. I'm like, oh, that's good. And then I can craft a video around it, and then I'm excited to film it. So I'm definitely not opposed to being authentic and showing my real personality on camera. I just don't really know what it would really do or be about. So maybe one day, butMichael Jamin:
Yeah, so interesting. And then, okay, so you mentioned that you're into, you would think about acting. You don't want to move to la. You're not that serious about it. You're open to it.Jack Raia:
Right. So the way I see it, I live in Long Island by train. I'm less than an hour outside of Manhattan. So any sort of opportunities in the entertainment industry, I feel like I could probably pursue in New York if they were to come about. But the idea of moving to LA and trying to jump with both feet into Hollywood, I guess, doesn't have as much as appeal to me as it does. Kind of just making my videos, working on the ambulance, working at a concert. I'm kind of liking what I'm doing instead of really trying to jump into one or the other.Michael Jamin:
I appreciate that. I mean, you're doing this to me. It seems like you have, it's the purest form, excuse me, purest form of expression. You're doing this, you want to be creative. This is your outlet.Jack Raia:
And the honest truth is I like being a content creator, but I love being an EMT. It's honestly, the unfortunate reality is that if I could make as much as a content creator as an EMT, I probably wouldn't be doing much of the content creator stuff. Obviously, like I said before, the attention super addicting and it's fun to get recognized and stuff like that. But if I could flip the payrolls, I would,Michael Jamin:
Well, let me ask you this. Why not do more actual day in the life where you got the camera, you're behind the wheel, the ambulance or whatever? Is it because you're not allowed toJack Raia:
Sort of? So I've done a little bit of that. I've able to, like I said, I have some vlogs on YouTube where I'm vlogging the work that I do as an EMT, but it's definitely much harder to do than if you were to do it with other jobs, with everything from HIPAA violations to if I were to deviate even one second or one minutia of my brain power to my phone or something like that while I'm in the ambulance at all, it's just not something you really want to get involvedMichael Jamin:
With. Yeah, I could see that. I mean, other than maybe cleaning the ambulance when it's parkedJack Raia:
Station, right? Yeah, no, no, no. I can see that. But cameras and healthcare tend to not really mix very well, especially when it comes to me just running around my cell phone camera. So that's definitely been a major roadblock in kind of the day of life kind of stuff.Michael Jamin:
Yeah, I can see that. I guess it's a naive question now that I ask that. Yeah,Jack Raia:
Yeah. But I've had some success, so it's not like it's impossible, but its definitely more difficult. So it's not really that much of a priority for me.Michael Jamin:
Creative. Are there creators or even famous people whose work you admire you were trying to emulate in your work?Jack Raia:
Yeah. I mean, there's other EMT creators or EMS creators or even just healthcare workers in general that create content on the app that I really like. One of 'em is the name's Fire department Chronicles. He's a bald dude that makes firefighter skits and he's the best in the business. He kills them.Michael Jamin:
Are you going to clap with him or no?Jack Raia:
I mean, maybe one day. I haven't reallyMichael Jamin:
Reached out to him that Okay, you don't know each other. Okay. It's great.Jack Raia:
He's got millions and millions ofMichael Jamin:
Followers. Well, you're getting up there. You're getting close to a million.Jack Raia:
Hopefully. I like to think I'm on my way. ItMichael Jamin:
Looks that way. Sure. And then you also sell merch. Are people buying? Are the people digging you?Jack Raia:
Yeah, a little bit. It's a work in progress. This is one of the shirts. It's just bankrupt the funeral home. So it's kind of a humorous situation where it's like, imagine if healthcare workers could do their job so impossibly well that no one was dying. So the funeral home is like, oh crap, we're out of customers here. We can't really afford to keep the lights on anymore. It's kind of, yeah,Michael Jamin:
It's a good message you got. It's positive. And I really admire you for putting yourself out there for just showing up. A lot of people are afraid to do that.Jack Raia:
Yeah, absolutely. I appreciate you saying that. My goal is to do something greater for the emergency services community down the road. I'm making a couple bucks off each T-shirt here now, but I have plans to really increase it. I'm collabing with a much larger Instagram page soon. So we want to sell everything from hats, patches, stickers, t-shirts, bags, everything under the sun, donate a portion of each sale, and really try to give back to the community that's given me this platform is definitely a goal of mine.Michael Jamin:
Well, I imagine you're becoming the face, you're becoming the face of EMT workers, at least in your area. I can only see good things coming from that in terms of raising your profile in the industry.Jack Raia:
Yeah. I'll have to agree with you there, for sure. Yeah.Michael Jamin:
Have others reached out to you? Other people in your line of work reached out to you and say, Hey, good for you for doing this? Or how do they react? Yeah,Jack Raia:
Yeah. I get a lot of really positive messages from other creators and just from other, Hey, I'm an EMT and wherever, wherever I really like your videos, man. One message that sticks out to me in particular was, it's probably last summer I got a message and it was, Hey, I'm an EMT instructor out of Iowa. My class loves your videos. We watch your videos as an icebreaker every morning before class. Holy crap. Really? The whole class.Michael Jamin:
That's really nice.Jack Raia:
That's when it really started to hit me that I'm really impacting other EMTs and paramedic stuff in here. I was like, wow, there's some real serious reach here.Michael Jamin:
Yeah. People don't realize that what you do actually makes a difference in some people's lives. It really does.Jack Raia:
And with that, there's definitely a little bit of responsibility. There's two aspects of my content that I'm kind of trying to clean up in the future a little bit. One of them being is the disheveled kind of inappropriate nature that my character exhibits a lot of the time, showing up with his boots untied, still tucking in his shirt, which kind of happens due to the nature of the job. Maybe you're on a 24 hour shift, you just woke up, you're drinking Red Bulls or doing whatever and would hate for that to influence a new or future EMT. I would hate for them to think that it's okay to do that because of the nature of the job.Michael Jamin:
When did you come to that realization now?Jack Raia:
Pretty recently. So I've started putting, or I've went back and put disclaimers on a lot of my videos. It does not represent correct practice. I'll have people nitpick what I'm doing in the comments and stuff and it hit me. It's like it is important to, obviously it's a comedy skip, but it is important to note like, Hey, this is not the way you're supposed to be doing things. I'm over here trying to make a couple people laugh. This is in no way, shape or form the way that you're supposed to conduct yourself.Michael Jamin:
That's an interesting realization that you're doing this for fun. And then you realized at some point you had a responsibilityJack Raia:
ExactlyMichael Jamin:
To the world really to not just to your coworkers, but in your profession, but to the world, which I don't think not everyone comes to that realization. Yeah, I wish more people did because what you put out there is important andJack Raia:
It will affect people, whether it's subconsciously or directly. It will start to influence the way people see this job. And that goes for whatever kind of content you're making. Another aspect that I'm going to try to clean up in the future is I don't want to deter people from calling 9 1 1 because they think they might get this EMT that comes in with attitude and doesn't want to be there and stuff like that. Some of the videos I make, I'll be coming through that front door and I'm just like, oh, this is a bull crap. Call my kind of rolling my eyes and I'm making jokes about the lack of severity of the situation and I would hate for someone to see one of my videos and think twice about calling 9 1 1. So it's definitely some stuff that I'm going to address in the future, but I feel like I'm ahead of the curve hopefully, so that it hasn't really gotten too far yet where there might be some crazy instance or something like that. But it's definitely something that's on my radar to kind of address.Michael Jamin:
Where do you think most of your followers are they being in the United States? I mean, I would assume,Jack Raia:
Honestly, I'm not sure. I can check my analytics and it can tell me where people are from. The most recent time I checked my most followed city was Chicago, coincidentally enough. So it was like Chicago, Phoenix, Austin, New York wasn't even really up there.Michael Jamin:
Isn't that interesting?Jack Raia:
Yeah. But there's definitely a lot of local people that have recognized me. When I started at my private ambulance company in February of this year and my first ride along, I showed up, I walked into the building and put my stuff down and immediately went on a call with of my field training officers. So obviously we're kind of in call mode, right? But once we transferred our patient care and everything like that, my FTO was like, you, that guy. I was like, probably. I'm probably the one you're thinking of.Michael Jamin:
Yeah. How funny. That must have been. Nice. So before we wrap up, I don't know, I'm very impressed by what you're putting out there, by what you're doing. You're simply a standup guy. What other advice do you give people who I don't know, who are interested in doing what you're doing? What else do you have to offer them?Jack Raia:
I think that consistency is probably the most important aspect of trying to be any type of a creator. Whether you're writing a blog, making POV skits or making music, anything like that. Kind of just forcing people to be exposed to your content through you just keep making it and posting it is probably the most important aspect. And if you can do that and just make an effort to make each one a little bit better than the last, it will start to compound.Michael Jamin:
And by consistency you mean once a day or what?Jack Raia:
It depends, honestly. So with me, it worked once a day. Back in the winter of 2021, I had a winter break from school, so I was like, you know what? I got nothing to do this break, but watch the Sopranos and make TikTok. So no matter what I'm doing, I'm going to make a TikTok every day. I don't care if I love it, I hate it, I'm going to post it. So that was that first little spike in followers that I got and I was like, this can probably work. I think I got it down here. ButMichael Jamin:
I think it's great that you're really, that you're sharing your profession, you're making it light, you're trying to entertain people and you're doing a little something, but you're raising your profile. I see just good things, good things coming from it.Jack Raia:
Yeah. I really appreciate it.Michael Jamin:
Yeah. Congratulations. Thank you for joining me again. I really appreciate it learning your story. My pleasure. Very interesting. Everyone go check out Jack, Jack Raya, his channel's called What's good, 2 4 7 24 7. That's me on TikTok. I imagine that's your same handle on Instagram and Facebook. Yeah, that's it. Wonderful. Thank you so much, Jack. Really good for you. Congratulations.Jack Raia:
Absolutely. We'll have to do this again sometimes. Thank you.Michael Jamin:
Yeah, good stuff. Alright everyone, that was an interesting talk with an EMT Jack. We'll check him out on TikTok. Alright everyone, until next week, I got to think of a better tagline. You used to say, keep writing, I'll think of something else. Keep bullshitting. Alright everyone, thanks soJack Raia:

Hasu and Jon bring on Mike Neuder (Ethereum Foundation) and Chris Hager (Flashbots) to discuss the design philosophy of proposer-builder separation (PBS). They first dive into the past and present implementations of PBS, including MEV-Geth and MEV-Boost on Ethereum.
