Purchase Rebel Queen here: https://www.hachettebookgroup.com/.../9781538757291/... Born to a poor Jewish family in Cold War Budapest, Polgar would emerge as the one of the greatest female chess players the world has ever seen. While still a teenager, she became the first woman to qualify for the men's World Chess Championship cycle. She went on to become the highest rated female chess player on the planet and, at age 21, the first woman to earn the men's Grandmaster title—chess' highest designation. But to get there, she had to endure sexism, anti-Semitism, state-sponsored intimidation, and even violent assault. Throw in sabotage, betrayal, and powerful enemies, and you have a sense of what she went through while breaking chess' glass ceiling. Polgar eventually left Hungary and started a new life as an American citizen. After retiring as a player, she became the only female Division 1 college coach in the country and built two separate college chess dynasties from scratch—at Texas Tech in Lubbock (where she now resides) and Webster University in St. Louis—leading them to more national titles, world championships, major titles, and Olympiad medals, especially gold, than all other college chess teams in the United States combined!

Susan Polgar is the author of Rebel Queen: The Cold War, Misogyny, and the Making of a Grandmaster. Born to a poor Jewish family in Cold War Budapest, Susan Polgar had the odds stacked against her growing up in a sexist and oppressive culture. Yet her father subscribed to the belief that geniuses are not born, but created, so he set out to ensure her success in an unlikely field: chess. At age 4, she won her first tournament. By 15, she was the top‑rated female player in the world. She was the first woman ever to hold the men's Grandmaster title, chess' highest designation. The ensuing wins and accolades provided incredible highs to coincide with extreme lows as Polgar's celebrity brought backlash, including sabotage and state‑sponsored intimidation.

This week on Chess Journeys, I spoke with Rob. He's trying to juggle career, family, and chess improvement. We discussed his recent rapid success, reaching 1600, and where to go next. Rob has decided to focus on studying for a few months to outline a process that will help him improve more. He's been focused on Polgar's mate in 2 puzzles, Calculation: A Complete Guide for Tournament Players, and Youtube videos. Rob is especially impressed by Daniel Naroditsky's speed run series. Recently Rob started going to a chess club, and we reflected on the transition to 3d chess and interacting with actual people.

En prévision de la fête de la musique, La Foi Prise au Mot propose une réflexion sur les musiques sacrées du monde. La question de la forme et des usages légitimes de la musique ont toujours occupé une place centrale dans le christianisme, au moins depuis saint Paul. Mais les Pères de l'Église, à commencer par saint Augustin, se sont très vite inquiétés du risque de distraction de la portée symbolique et du sens spirituel du rite par la musique. La musique au service de la liturgie et de la prière, certes, mais servante parfois désobéissante... Quelle place les différentes traditions religieuses ont-elles accordé à la musique ? Et quels usages en ont-elles fait pour exprimer le sacré ? "En principe le chant grégorien ce n'est pas de la musique. C'est un texte, celui de la Bible en général, qui est modulé. En conséquence de quoi il n'y a pas de compositeur de chant grégorien. C'est donc un chant qui émerge et qui s'élabore petit à petit au fil des siècles et en fonction des lieux et cultures qui le traverse", rappelle François Polgar, chef de choeur et consultant à KTO. "Si on prend l'étymologie du mort art, on retrouve le mot sanskrit qui signifie le rite. Autrement dit, tout art comporte une dimension rituelle, en particulier la musique. Je ne connais aucune tradition religieuse qui se soit totalement passée de musique", relève Gérard Kurkdjian, auteur et co-fondateur du Festival de Fès des musiques sacrées du monde (Maroc).
The Polgar Sisters have been chess legends for many years. Arguably corroborating the quintessentially Jewish argument that nurture is more important than nature! In recent months they've utilised both their brains and their hearts in order to support the plight of the Israeli hostages in Gaza.
This week's guest is two- time Dutch Champion, eleven-time Olympian, author and former candidate for the World Championship Title, GM Paul Van der Sterren. Paul had an unusual career trajectory, in that after 15+years as a chess professional, his “breakout” year occurred at the age of 37. What happened that year(1993)? That is one of the many questions tackled in his fantastic, newly-translated game collection/memoir In Black and White: The Chess Autobiography of a World Championship Candidate. In New in Chess Magazine, GM Matthew Sadler calls this book “simply the finest chess book I've ever read.” After retiring from professional chess, Paul became a meditation teacher. His new book, Mindful Chess, traces the development of his mindfulness practice and offers reflections and tips for chess players interested in the topic. In addition to reflecting on the lessons from these books, Paul shares wonderful stories about his clashes with the Polgar sisters, Korchnoi, Tal and many others. I cannot recommend Paul's books highly enough, and I think that this interview will give you a good sense of the lessons they contain.

Großstadtfeuilleton ist, wenn eine Wiener Legende und ein Münchener Original in einer Berliner Tageszeitung aufeinander treffen. So geschehen wahrscheinlich öfter in den 1920er Jahren, aber konkret sei heute hier die Rede von Alfred Polgar, der im Berliner Tageblatt vom 14. Dezember 1923 der spezifischen Komik des großen Karl Valentin auf den Grund zu gehen versucht. „Er ist ein Phänomen und spottet der Analyse“, schließt sein Text voll Bewunderung und Bescheidenheit. In den vorangegangenen zwei kleinen Spalten kommt der Literat Polgar dem Phänomen Valentin aber vermutlich näher als die meisten anderen Exegeten. Kostenpunkt der veröffentlichenden Abendausgabe übrigens: 100 Milliarden Mark. Oder wie man neuerdings rechnete: 10 Goldpfennig. Unser Mann bei diesem Gipfeltreffen ist Frank Riede.
Voltamos com mais um episódio do Escuta Essa, podcast semanal em que Denis e Danilo trocam histórias de cair o queixo e de explodir os miolos. Todas as quartas-feiras, no seu agregador de podcasts favorito, é a vez de um contar um causo para o outro. Neste episódio Denis nos conta sobre a luta de uma garota para poder jogar com os garotos.

A gente sempre lê mensagens no final de cada episódio! ... NESTE EPISÓDIO - Justine Blainey levou sua vontade de jogar hockey com os garotos até a Suprema Corte. - Hockey segue sendo considerado o esporte nacional do Canadá e ainda é o mais popular do país, mas estudos mostram que ele já não é unanimidade e perde espaço cada vez mais rapidamente para basquete e futebol. - Hockey é um esporte bastante físico. - Fran Rider faz parte do Hall da Fama da Federação Internacional de Hockey no Gelo, é uma das fundadoras da Associação Feminina de Hockey de Ontario e foi abertamente contrária à tentativa de Blainey de jogar com os garotos. - No xadrez as mulheres podem receber títulos e competir em torneios exclusivamente femininos, mas também podem, caso desejado, ganhar títulos e competir em torneios "absolutos", ou seja, que incluem homens e mulheres. - As irmãs Polgar (Judit, Susan e Sofia) foram treinadas desde a infância por seu pai Lázlo Polgar. Judit Polgar se tornou na época a mais jovem jogadora a receber o título de Grande Mestre, aos 15 anos de idade, um mês mais cedo do que o lendário ex-campeão mundial Bobby Fischer. Em 2002, Judit alcançou o oitavo lugar no Mundial de Xadrez absoluto, ou seja, com homens e mulheres participando. - A "Batalha dos Sexos" (Battle of the Sexes) foi uma partida de tênis disputada em 1973 entre Billie Jean King e o então aposentado Bobby Riggs. A partida inspirou um filme em 2017 com Emma Stone, chamado igualmente "Battle of the Sexes". - As irmãs Venus e Serena Williams (que já ocuparam simultaneamente o número 1 e 2 no ranking de tênis feminino, e em momentos diferentes foram ambas número 1 tanto no tênis simples quanto em duplas) foram treinadas por seu pai, Richard Williams, desde os 4 anos e meio de idade. ...

Luego de varias semanas de discusión y polémica, el Frente Amplio (FA) confirmó su postura respecto al plebiscito de reforma constitucional que promueve el PIT CNT para modificar el sistema de jubilaciones y pensiones. El sábado pasado el Plenario Nacional del FA aprobó por unanimidad una resolución que da libertad de acción a los sectores para apoyar o no la iniciativa de la central sindical. El documento, además, explicitó el alcance de esa libertad de acción. Por ejemplo, dispuso que “no deberán usarse los recursos comunes del FA para la campaña impulsada por las organizaciones sociales ni para oponerse a ella”. Por otro lado, se aprobó, también por unanimidad, un documento con las bases para el diálogo social sobre reforma de la Seguridad Social que el FA impulsará si vuelve al gobierno en 2025. Profundizamos en este documento. Conversamos En Perspectiva con el economista Jorge Polgar, integrante de la comisión encargada de redactar este texto.
Dem Berliner mag so allerlei nachgesagt werden; dass er – oder auch sie – etwas von gutem Essen und Trinken verstehe, gehört zumindest traditionell eher nicht dazu. Das wusste wohl auch das Berliner Tageblatt, dessen Abendausgabe am 30. August 1923 bereits 80.000 Mark kostete, und ließ über „Das gute Essen“ einen waschechten Wiener, nämlich Alfred Polgar, sich auslassen, wobei man durchaus streiten kann, ob dieser Titel tatsächlich den Gegenstand des nachfolgenden Textes präzise, nun ja, aufspießt. Noch mehr als um das Schnitzel auf dem Teller, das auch vorkommt, geht es Polgar um den physiologischen Vorgang des Speisen Inkorporierens und seine unmittelbaren Folgen für Seele und Zunge sowie um verschiedene Typen des Essers. Frank Riede hat sich Polgars delikate kleine Studie für uns schmecken lassen.
This week on Chess Journeys, I spoke with Chris. He's a busy mechanic trying to balance his career, family, and chess improvement. He picked up the game in 2022, and has made a lot of progress towards his goals. We talked a lot about his approach to chess study. Chris focuses most of his time studying using books such as the Soviet Chess Primer and the Polgar mates book. Chris attributes much of his success to joining the Chess Dojo and working with a coach.

Lazslo Polgar, was one of the earliest advocates that great performers are made, not born. He had argued, that dedicated practice in any chosen field, could transform any healthy child into a genius.He realized that the only way to prove his theory was to test it on his own future children. So he found a young Ukrainian woman named Klara, who found his arguments irresistible and ended up taking part in his bold experiment.In 1969, Klara gave birth to their first daughter, Susan.Laszlo needed Susan's achievements to be so dramatic, that nobody could question their authenticity. That was the only way to convince people, that their ideas about innate talent were all wrong. And then it struck him: Chess.In 1974, Klara gave birth to a second daughter, Sofia. Then in 1976, to a third daughter, Judit.By the time they had reached adolescence, all three sisters had accumulated well over ten thousand hours of specialized practice in chess. All three sisters would win many championships and set new world records.The story of the Polgar sisters provides evidence for Laszlo's theory of dedicated practice. But the public was sure that, the sisters' success, was a consequence of unique talent. Susan was even described by the local newspaper as a child prodigy.So here's a question for you:Does everyone have the capacity to become a talented individual?

Link to bioRxiv paper: http://biorxiv.org/cgi/content/short/2023.02.10.528013v1?rss=1 Authors: Boyle, K. A., Polgar, E., Gutierrez-Mecinas, M., Dickie, A. C., Cooper, A. H., Bell, A. M., Jumolea, E., Casas-Benito, A., Watanabe, M., Hughes, D. I., Weir, G., Riddell, J., Todd, A. J. Abstract: Somatosensory information is processed by a complex network of interneurons in the spinal dorsal horn. It has been reported that inhibitory interneurons that express neuropeptide Y (NPY), either permanently or during development, suppress mechanical itch, with no effect on pain. Here we investigate the role of interneurons that continue to express NPY (NPY-INs) in adulthood. We find that chemogenetic activation of NPY-INs reduces behaviours associated with acute pain and pruritogen evoked itch, whereas silencing them causes exaggerated itch responses that depend on cells expressing the gastrin-releasing peptide receptor. As predicted by our previous studies, silencing of another population of inhibitory interneurons (those expressing dynorphin) also increases itch, but to a lesser extent. Importantly, NPY IN activation also reduces behavioural signs of inflammatory and neuropathic pain. These results demonstrate that NPY-INs gate pain and itch transmission at the spinal level, and therefore represent a potential treatment target for pathological pain and itch.

„Der leise Meister“ heißt ein Aufsatz, den Marcel Reich-Ranicki einst Alfred Polgar widmete, und tatsächlich ist ein größerer, eleganterer Virtuose der beiläufigen Beobachtung schwerlich denkbar. Polgar braucht weder einen aufregenden Anlass, noch einen spektakulären Gegenstand, noch eine große Form, um literarisch zu eben solcher, nämlich zu großer Form aufzulaufen. Vielmehr entdeckt er das Wesen der menschlichen Welt noch in deren alltäglichsten Erscheinungen. Wer diese Gabe besitzt, braucht wahrscheinlich wirklich keine fette Bibliothek, denn echte Weisheit passt, wie Polgars nachfolgende Überlegungen zur Bibliothek einmal mehr belegen, auch und vielleicht ausschließlich in wenige Zeilen. Abgedruckt hat diese das Berliner Tageblatt vom 21. April 1922, gelesen für uns Frank Riede.
Can prodigies be created with early specialization? Laszlo Polgar was an educational psychologist who believed they could. He experimented with his own children and the results were fascinating. This is Part 1 of a re-release of the first 3 Prodigy episodes. They are meant to be listened to together as they cover the argument of nature vs nurture as related to performance.

For fans of The Queen's Gambit, this is the real life story of a female chess champion travelling the world to compete in a male-dominated sport with the most famous players of all time. Jennifer Shahade, a two-time US Women's Chess Champion, spent her teens and twenties travelling the world playing chess. Tournaments have taken her from Istanbul to Moscow, and introduced her to players from Zambia to China. In this ultra male-dominated sport, Jennifer found shocking sexism, as well as an incredible history of the top female players that has often been ignored. But she also found friendships, feminism and hope. Through her own story as well as in-depth profiles of pioneers of the game , Jennifer invites us into the extremely competitive world of chess. She shows us the rivalry and the camaraderie; the ecstatic highs and the excruciating losses; the glamour and the hard work. She describes the coach who told her that her period will affect her standard of play, and gives us thrilling blow by blow accounts of the matches that made history. Intertwined with Jennifer's own story are those of the top female players from around the world. We meet the famous Polgar sisters, the three Hungarian girls who were all child prodigies; we meet the glamorous jet setters who travel the world partying, and the players who escaped war-torn countries to become champions against the odds. Chess Queens is a fascinating glimpse into the exhilarating world of chess and an essential audiobook for all the aspiring chess queens of today.
"Kako zanimivo bi bilo 'pokukati' v možgane Magnusa Carlsena," je ob pripravah na tokratno epizodo dejal dr. Simon Brezovar, klinični psiholog, ki rad ob prostem času odigra kakšno partijo šaha, še bolj pa ga s strokovnega vidika zanima, "kakšni mentalni procesi se odvijajo v možganih velemojstrov, da igrajo na tako vrhunskem nivoju". Raziskave igralcev šaha pa so ugotovile nekaj zelo zanimivega, kar nas bo odpeljalo do omrežja v možganih, ki je tesno povezano z zaznavanjem obrazov. Imenuje se fuziformni gyrus. Kako se spreminja in odziva na prepoznavanje šahovskih partij v primerjavi s prepoznavanjem obrazov? Kako se pri tem razlikujejo novinci v šahu v primerjavi z mojstri? Koliko je prirojenega talenta in kakšno vlogo pri genialnosti nosi trening? In česa se lahko naučimo iz primera sester Polgar? Vse to v tokratni epizodi! Pripravlja: Mojca Delač.

The Hero Story Perhaps there has always been an effort towards optimization, and it generally looks like technology. When speaking of self optimization, or overcoming , we are speaking of the hero's journey popularized by Joseph Campbell. Campbell spoke a lot of the parallels of the external journey and the internal journey… the external circumstances gave the individual the opportunity to react and grow.In the 50's-70's there was a wave of belief in unlocking human potential through psycho-science-type things like intensive practice hypnosis and subliminal training… or just LSD. Some of these practices were previously used in religious awakening, but we wrapped them up under the guise of science, and then they were abused by programs like MK Ultra.During this time, people thought of the human as a blank slate that could be written, molded or shaped. (optimized?) An example of this is Laszlo Polgar, born in Hungary, and with an idea about raising children, ended up getting married and having his first child in 1969. He and his wife Clara, raised children around the idea that they could create a genius through specific narrow focus. They had three children, the Polgar sisters, who all excelled at chess, reaching amazing heights, and were declared National Treasures. In fiction, chess is too boring, so the blank slates are in the genre of assassin Killers: examples are Kill Bill, Atomic Blonde, or Leon the Professional where they are trained, usually for revenge or duty. On the darker side you have children raised by handlers or governments as weapons, like in John Wick, Black Widow, Hannah, or Kate. So what if instead of being a badass with Kalashnikovs and stilettos you're a phenom with golf clubs? This is the Tiger Woods story, a history of brutal authoritarian parenting generating mental resiliency and overcoming. A lot of success, but a lot of trauma.Physically, many of us are not capable of such heroic heights: we cannot optimize enough to overcome our genetics, despite how much protein we consume. Enter science to the rescue as the mythical augmented man: Perhaps the Six Million Dollar Man or the darker side of Robocop, more of an automaton cyborg. Talk about efficiency: just turn the man into a machine. We are culturally conditioned to accept this is the way of the future as far back as cartoons like Inspector Gadget: the bumbling doofus with all sorts of extensions and rockets and wheels that both saved the day and naturally lead to slapstick pratfalls.Backtrack: This takes us back to an earlier podcast, step 28, in which I mentioned Henri Bergson, and his summary of what makes something funny, which is “the mechanical encrusted upon the living.”Of course, the real warning: when we lean too heavily into external power, technology, optimization (or even habits and productivity), we cease to be human in a certain way. We trade in the hard path of “overcoming” for the easy path of instant power, and in that substitution, we lose something. Yet, an alternate form optimization technology exists: Arcane Magics. I'm going to suggest, this path of learning the secrets of Arcane magics of habit stacking and personal productivity is the most alluring current path to be super, to achieve your potential. From Fiction to Fact While I have been talking about science through fictional stories, in many ways it has stepped into reality.You want to see something insane: look up clips from the 1920's Olympics compared to todays Olympics: Over 100 years the science of optimization and dedicated practice works… physically at least… until they turn into that unhinged balance beam killer super model from “The Spy who dumped me.” In America, we seem to live in a society that links success and progress and achievement with wealth and appearance. This is the manifest destiny of self-actualization woven into the Protestant work ethic, capitalist, American Mythos… and technology is often the vehicle and the key.But dedication to science and technology is problematically deterministic and class eugenics can spring up from it, as played out in the movie Gattaca. The secret to tricking an unjust technocracy? Keep secrets, and work harder than everyone else.But in this age of the internet we need to know exactly how: what was his diet? What drugs was he on? Boxers or briefs?And this is the trap we are in today: there are so many paths laid out before us by the millionaires and self-hacking crowds that we have a myriad of paths to successful optimization. Yet when someone, like in Gattaca, has an overpowering, all-consuming goal to be more… or in Kill Bill to kill more… we find their dedication and focus grants results. This can be called “dedicated practice” and myths of a 10,000 hour rule to mastery circulate around it. The beauty of it is that maybe we don't need neural implants and bionic arms. Maybe the new magics are habit stacks, routines, the mystical arcana of time-blocking and flow state. The only thing left is to find an all-consuming, overpowering desire that we can shape our life around… and that is not so much hero stuff, as a very old question of all of mankind: what is my purpose? What is my mission? The Superman, the Ubermensch, Nietzsche How can we do an episode on superheroes, and overcoming without at least bringing up Friedrich Nietzsche. He popularized the concept of Übermensch or Overman or Beyondman… now most commonly seen as Superman.(By the way, this concept is affiliated with the Nazi party due to Nietzsche's sister misusing his texts.)The Overman is really a man of overcoming… and to confuse it with physical power as the Superman warrior is quite superficial. In our society many people appear superhero, overcoming physicality, but staying in vanity. The hero's journey is ultimately a journey towards self-integration, towards wholeness, and as Jung said “individuation” through the unification of opposites.In Nietzsche's book thus spoke zarathustra the prophet Zarathustra, who comes down from his mountaintop to share his knowledge with masses is spurned by the people. He attempts to tell them of the Ubermensch, but they reject this hard life of overcoming. All spiteful and disappointed, Zarathustra decides to prophesy the disgusting concept of Last man: a lazy decadent person, born of a civilization incapable of standing up to challenge or hardship, only interested in comfort. The last man takes no risks, preferring security. This is the soft and secure rationalist who has forgotten how to dream and everything the Ubermensch would do appears as illness, or madness.Intentional hardship? Are you crazy? So, how do we push back against the zombie conformity of security that seems so rational? It seems – indeed – to be illogical to try. Isn't it in our best interest to protect ourselves and stay comfortably in the middle of the herd? Yes, for survival maybe, but what about thriving? What about self-actualization?One way is to find something external to ourselves that is more important, someway we can help: A hero uses the challenge, the tension and hardship, to manifest creativity, to innovate. Are scientists and technologists our superheroes, the innovators or our time? How about the optimizers, the overcomers? The guys and gals hitting flow state, or testing intermittent fasting: testing, and testing, and suffering, and sharing all this data with us. Are they climbing the mountain and coming back down with the mountain-top insights? Perhaps. But what if their motivation is internet rewards, or just a whole bucket full of hacks? That would be a less than noble goal.Experimentation can happen culturally, too. Can we not appreciate the heroism of the alternate lifestyle?The real challenge, the wisdom handed down to us through some religion, philosophy, and myths is to blend all opposites: overcome and move beyond dualities of good and evil, conscious and unconscious, spiritual and earthly… this is how you become an individual.Most of us are what is called a “dividual”, not undivided, as an “individual.” We are the divided self. Fragmented. We have not overcome or transcended, or as Hegel would say “subsumed.” Sure, we might be fit, we may look like the image of the superhero, but is maintaining appearances more like the act of the lastman? I am not saying they cannot coincide, but the motivation is a vital distinction to understanding conformity and overcoming.What I do know, is we -in our society- are really good at superficial appearances… placing the signifier before the signified. The point, I think, is that to become a real human, a whole and integrated self, is a harder and a more heroic a journey than scientific shortcutting or following formulas that guarantee results. Sure, science/tech is great and helpful, but it shouldn't do the overcoming for you: you have to do that. Also, the hero is often portrayed alone, the monk ascending the mountain to find enlightenment or Superman in his Fortress of Solitude after keeping secrets, but you do not have to do this alone. Sure, you will have to work and push back against mindless conformity, but take the journey with others and avoid the solipsistic individuality of the shallow villain.
Is there a formula for genius? One man thinks that he has found it - and he used it to raise all three of his daughters to be world champion chess players. On this episode, I talk about the life of Laszlo Polgar, his training and teaching methods, and the successes of his three daughters - Susan, Sophia, and Judith.

Jack F. is in the top 9% of the United States Chess Federation league. Not only that, but he was impressive enough to beat me in only 16 moves (maybe that's not as big of an accomplishment). In this chess-related episode, we discuss everything from strategy, the Polgar sisters, the influence of robots and artificial intelligence, and quite a bit of philosophy.
Paul Polgar recovers the racially inclusive vision of America's first abolition movement. In showcasing the activities of the Pennsylvania Abolition Society, the New York Manumission Society, and their African American allies during the post-Revolutionary and early national eras, he unearths this coalition's comprehensive agenda for black freedom and equality. By guarding and expanding the rights of people of African descent and demonstrating that black Americans could become virtuous citizens of the new Republic, these activists, whom Polgar names "first movement abolitionists," sought to end white prejudice and eliminate racial inequality. Beginning in the 1820s, however, colonization threatened to eclipse this racially inclusive movement. Colonizationists claimed that what they saw as permanent black inferiority and unconquerable white prejudice meant that slavery could end only if those freed were exiled from the United States. In pulling many reformers into their orbit, this radically different antislavery movement marginalized the activism of America's first abolitionists and obscured the racially progressive origins of American abolitionism that Polgar now recaptures.By reinterpreting the early history of American antislavery, Polgar illustrates that the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries are as integral to histories of race, rights, and reform in the United States as the mid-nineteenth century.-Paul J. Polgar is assistant professor of history at the University of Mississippi.

Aimee is the definition of gusto. She is a wildfire with a servant's heart and a true passion for holistic health. We discuss our fun college days, her journey to becoming a Doctor and now owning her own practice. She shares some real golden nuggies and she will keep you laughing along the way. This interview is truly an episode filled with laughter, insight and girl boss.
Paul J. Polgar is the author of Standard-Bearers of Equality: America's First Abolition Movement, published by University of North Carolina Press in 2019. Standard-Bearers of Equality tells the story of a racially inclusive abolition movement which followed in the wake of the American Revolution. Seeking to uphold Revolutionary-era ideals, these “first movement abolitionists,” as Polgar refers to them, sought to end slavery and prove Black Americans deserved an equal place in the country. Polgar's work reinterprets this time in American history, illustrating how some people worked tirelessly to create an equalitarian country. Dr. Polgar is an Assistant Professor of History at the University of Mississippi. Derek Litvak is a Ph.D. student in the department of history at the University of Maryland.

Maria Konnikova is a journalist. She's written two New York Times best sellers. One about con artists and having the confidence to get away something. The other is about how detectives think. But now she's immersed in poker (for her next book). And making big money (she made $200,000 in her first year playing). That WAS NOT the plan. She wanted to write a book about luck. Now, she's on her way to play in the world series. She taught me about "game theory," which is "when you look at the world like a game, where everyone has certain payoffs for certain decisions," she said.

In Episode 21, Jessica Ann talks with tech ethicist David Ryan Polgar. Polgar digs below the surface to examine our tech use from an ethical, legal, and emotional perspective. With a background as an attorney and an educator, along with experience working with social media companies, he is able to take a Multidisciplinary approach to our evolving use of technology. In this interview, David and Jessica discuss: How Technology Impacts Us from an Ethical and Emotional Perspective Why we lack appropriate terms for what we're even talking about. Everyone is struggling with this. Why our rapturous submission to digital technology has led to an atrophying of human capacities like empathy and self-reflection, and the time has come to reassert ourselves, behave like adults, and put technology in its place (h/t Sherry Turkle's Reclaiming Conversation." What does it mean to be human in how we communicate and at the world at large? We're often living through a filter and that filter is coming through our screen. How we're hooked up to the Google brain. If we all have access to it, it's not important. It's more important to step back, and have creativity and wisdom with access the information. It's more important to be creative today but we're struggling with the mass-consumption of information. Creativity and wisdom are seen as the ability to connect dots. Creative people take things we wouldn't think and say "let's combine that." The problem that's happening is that we're struggling with something that never ends because we of unlimited consumption. When information becomes available we tend to gobble it up. We need to say "Hey Facebook, make those cookies a little less delicious." Silicon Valley is selling us a product that we're gobbling up but we do not know the nutritional content. We need to allow for more moments of digestion: Don't check your phone, close the browser. This is easier said than done but we need to think of an information diet the same as we think of a food diet. How do we not become a robot in a world that's trying to change us into robots? As a capitalist society, every revolution has a counter-revolution. How and why Silicon Valley is selling us a product that we're gobbling up. And why we need to make an informed decision about the content we consume. Do we humans have free-will with the endless use of algorithms? How humanity is becoming "bot-ified" based on predictive analytics. How LinkedIn automates intimacy and how we have gamified relationships. Why social adoption is not solely focused on utility.
