This has been a crucial year for US energy policy. The passage of the One Big Beautiful Bill Act eliminated many of the clean energy incentives that were centerpieces of Biden-era climate policy.  The rollback of key climate provisions from the Inflation Reduction Act led to contentious debate over America's energy future. With so many shifting priorities and questions around the direction and the pace of the energy transition, it's unclear what 2026 will bring. So how are policymakers facing these challenges and working to accelerate clean energy deployment in a shifting political environment? What does pragmatic energy policy look like in an era of deep partisanship? And what should the policy response be to rising electricity demand and costs in the United States? Today on the show, we're revisiting a conversation that Jason Bordoff had back in September with Illinois Congressman Sean Casten. They discussed the state of clean energy deployment in the US. Congressman Casten represents Chicago's western suburbs and serves on both the House Financial Services Committee and the Joint Economic Committee. He's also vice chair of the Sustainable Energy and Environment Coalition. Before entering Congress, Rep. Casten was a clean energy entrepreneur and consultant, serving as CEO of Turbosteam Corporation and as founding chairman of the Northeast CHP Initiative.

I'm thrilled to share some exciting insights from our latest podcast episode, where I had the pleasure of interviewing Sam Gibson, the visionary founder and CEO of Hadron Energy. Sam's pioneering work in developing 10-megawatt micro reactors is set to revolutionize the energy landscape, particularly for data centers, industrial applications, and national security. Here's a sneak peek into our conversation:Key Takeaways from the Episode:Sam's Journey into Nuclear Energy:Inspired by his father's work and a childhood fascination with Iron Man 2, Sam's passion for mechanical engineering and clean energy led him to nuclear power.Despite being one of the youngest executives in the field, Sam's fresh perspective is driving innovation in an industry traditionally dominated by older generations.The Vision for Micro Reactors:Hadron Energy is bridging a significant market gap by developing scalable, factory-fabricated 10-megawatt light water micro reactors.These reactors are designed to be efficient, safe, and commercially viable, leveraging proven technology used in existing U.S. reactors.Overcoming Challenges:Sam's journey wasn't easy—starting solo, he traveled cross-country to pitch his concept, facing skepticism and regulatory hurdles.Persistence paid off, and now Hadron Energy is gaining traction with strong interest from data centers, industrial operators, and government entities.Technology and Market Differentiation:Hadron's micro reactors offer a modular, scalable solution, reducing risks and costs associated with traditional large nuclear plants.This approach is particularly attractive to data centers and industrial operators needing reliable, carbon-free baseload power.Demand Drivers:The growing energy needs of data centers, driven by AI infrastructure, and the push for decarbonization in various sectors are fueling demand for Hadron's reactors.National security considerations also underscore the strategic importance of reliable baseload power.Policy and National Security:Favorable policies, like the ADVANCE Act, aim to triple U.S. nuclear capacity by 2050, aligning government incentives with industry goals.Initiatives like Project Janus highlight the critical role of micro reactors in national security.Leadership and Company Culture:Sam's leadership style focuses on servant leadership, fostering a collaborative environment where the best ideas win.Hadron's culture prioritizes safety, technical excellence, and an engineering-first approach, essential for their deep tech focus.Advice for Founders and Investors:Sam advises aspiring founders to identify a unique value proposition and commit to navigating complex regulatory landscapes.For investors, understanding the technical and regulatory nuances of nuclear technology is crucial for long-term, predictable investments.Looking Ahead:Sam envisions Hadron Energy operating a manufacturing facility producing mass-manufactured micro reactors, with licenses for deployment in the U.S. and internationally.The company aims to significantly contribute to a larger nuclear industry, meeting the growing demand for clean, reliable energy.Why You Should ListenSend us a textConnect with Kip on LinkedInhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/kipknippel/Watch Bite-Sized Clips on YouTubehttps://www.youtube.com/@capitalistculture/shorts

The best shooting you'll ever see on a body‑worn camera looks deceptively calm. That kind of control doesn't come from “stand still and pass the qual” culture—it comes from practical training that blends speed, accuracy, and judgment under stress. We sit down with Chris Palmer—retired Phoenix PD SWAT operator, academy firearms lead, and now part of Staccato's training group—to unpack how departments can move from checkbox drills to performance that holds up on the street and in court.Chris takes us inside SWAT selection, life on a full‑time team, and the lessons that reshaped his teaching: most shootings involve movement before shots; everything is fast until officers regain control; and confidence is a community safety feature. We dig into the myths around “slow is smooth,” why time doesn't create accuracy, and how training officers to recognize an acceptable sight picture at speed pays off when reality spikes. We also cover red dots on pistols—the index problem, faster learning for recruits, and why dots are a clarity tool rather than a crutch.Policy matters just as much as practice. Chris explains de‑escalation as an outcome, not a script; time‑distance‑cover as levers, not excuses; and duty‑to‑intervene language that sets clear expectations without assuming omniscience. Supervisors can use BWC to coach case law, handcuffing, and decision‑making before small misses become big headlines. And yes, we talk Staccato: what the HD platform changes, how a better trigger and design lower friction for learning, and why the company is investing heavily in open, modern law‑enforcement training rather than hype.If you care about safer officers, stronger communities, and shootings that withstand both review boards and public scrutiny, this conversation is your blueprint. Listen, share it with your training unit, and tell us: what's the first upgrade your agency needs—movement reps, red dots, or supervisory follow‑through?

In this episode of the Farm4Profit Podcast, we sit down with Joe Kerns, a 30-year industry veteran and Iowa State University graduate who has worked across procurement, risk management, nutrition, hedging, livestock marketing, and operational benchmarking. Joe doesn't sugarcoat the situation—and his perspective raises uncomfortable but necessary questions about the future of U.S. agriculture, especially pork production.Joe explains why he believes the pork industry is on the brink of becoming “a serf to the packer,” tracing the roots back to the 1998 hog price collapse and the financial community's push for mandatory packer contracts. The result? The negotiated cash market has collapsed from roughly 17% in 2002 to around 1% today, leaving producers without meaningful price discovery and shifting risk almost entirely onto the farm.We also tackle the growing loss of faith in USDA reporting, including:Corn yield overestimations that led to bad marketing decisionsThe September 2024 hog supply miss that sent futures $20/head higherDeclining participation in USDA reports and what that means for accuracyHow flawed data distorts markets, hedging decisions, and producer confidenceBut this episode isn't just about problems—it's about opportunity.Joe outlines how producer-driven, anonymous data aggregation could flip the power dynamic back toward farmers. With enough participation, predictive analytics could unlock insights across genetics, nutrition, management, equipment, and animal health—turning farm data into a monetized advantage instead of a liability.We also explore:Why pork producers may actually be agriculture's quiet sustainability success storyHow efficiency gains from genetics and feed conversion are reshaping protein productionWhy beef prices are likely to remain elevated—and why politics are missing the pointThe hard reality behind renewable diesel, SAF, and global energy policyWhat happens to independent producers if nothing changesThis is a candid, data-driven conversation about power, control, and survival in modern agriculture—and why the next decade may determine whether independence remains viable at all.

In 2025, a record $60 billion was invested in building AI data centers around the world, many of them in the US and Canada. Proposals for data centers are popping up across Wisconsin, in Mount Pleasant, Menominee, Beaver Dam, Dane County and beyond. These “hyperscale” complexes use anywhere between 5-50 megawatts of power and take up hundreds of acres of land. To talk about the growing opposition to AI data centers across the nation, host Douglas Haynes is joined by three guests: Michael Greif of Midwest Environmental Advocates, Mitch Jones of Food & Water Watch, and Ed Morganroth, Jr. of the group, No Data Center DeForest. People are increasingly concerned about data centers’ energy and water consumption, land use, noise pollution, and e-waste as well as the societal impacts of AI products like deep fakes. To educate legislators about the growing opposition, Food & Water Watch organized a letter to Congress calling for the halt of construction of data centers. Jones says that the fight is happening in every state and their letter creates a national umbrella for these groups to unify their message. So far over 250 organizations have signed on.  Many are concerned that the financial benefits of these data centers are flowing to Silicon Valley and out of local communities. And the public is largely being kept in the dark about how much electricity and water these data centers would eat up. This fall, Midwest Environmental Advocates took legal action to get the city of Racine to respond to Milwaukee Riverkeepers’s record recquest for the projected water consumption of a Mount Pleasant data center.  They were at first told that water use is a “trade secret.” To date, the public doesn't know how much electricity will be used at the data center that Alliant Energy and Meta are building in Beaver Dam. Morganroth says that at a time when Wisconsin is losing agricultural land, his group would rather see new housing and job-creating business in his community rather than a data center. Our guests also talk about the active role that electric companies are playing in the construction of data centers, the tax breaks that these companies are getting from the state of Wisconsin, and the AI bubble.  Michael Greif is a Legal Fellow at Midwest Environmental Advocates, where his work has focused on legal pathways to safeguard Wisconsin's air, water, and climate, including advocating for public disclosure of the water and energy use of hyperscale data centers. Michael is a graduate of the University of California, Berkeley School of Law and lives in Madison. Mitch Jones is the Managing Director of Policy and Litigation at Food & Water Watch. He has worked on federal policy for over 20 years. He leads the organization's work on federal and state policy as well as their sibling organization’s political program. Ed Morganroth, Jr. is a resident of DeForest, WI and member of the No Data Center DeForest group.

Guest host Andy Peth fills in for John Rush and is joined by Luke Cashman and Ashley Carter for a candid, emotionally charged hour that tackles grief, leadership, politics, and persuasion in the age of social media. The conversation begins with a thoughtful discussion surrounding Erica Kirk and the intense public scrutiny she has faced following the assassination of her husband, Charlie Kirk, founder of Turning Point USA. Is there a “right” way to grieve when the entire world is watching? And how much grace should the public extend to someone thrust into leadership during unimaginable loss? The hour then pivots to a hard conversation about politics and strategy heading into 2026. Andy challenges fellow conservatives to ask an uncomfortable question: how do Trump supporters win over swing voters? Using President Trump's controversial post about Rob Reiner as a case study, the panel debates tone, messaging, and the danger of blind loyalty. Is criticism a weakness—or a strength? And can acknowledging mistakes actually make a movement more persuasive? This hour is honest, uncomfortable at times, and deeply relevant. Are conservatives helping their cause—or hurting it? HOUR 2 Andy, Luke, and Ashley dive into a fast-moving Hour 2 packed with pop culture, faith, and a hard look at Hollywood's struggles. The hour opens with Andy's energetic and humorous commentary on The SpongeBob Movie: Search for SquarePants. Is it truly a kids' movie—or stuck awkwardly between adult nostalgia and childish humor? Andy breaks down what works, what doesn't, and why audiences may be divided. The conversation shifts to Angel Studios' animated film David, a biblical retelling filled with stunning visuals and surprisingly strong music—but does it hold kids' attention? Andy praises its faith-forward message while questioning its pacing and storytelling choices. In the final segment, the panel tackles a bigger question: Why are blockbusters struggling in 2025? From Avatar: Fire and Ash to Wicked: For Good, Andy analyzes box office drops, audience fatigue, and why even massive franchises may be losing momentum. Is Hollywood losing its grip—or simply misreading its audience? HOUR 3 Hour 3 opens with Andy welcoming Jerzee Joe back, host of the Jerzee Joe podcast (https://www.jerzeejoe.com). The hour blends sharp political analysis with blunt humor, as Joe and Andy dive into foreign policy, economics, and the cultural issues shaping 2026. They begin with a discussion on Venezuela, sanctioned oil seizures, and the Maduro regime—raising questions about economic pressure, national security, and America's global posture. From there, the tone turns somber with a serious warning about drunk driving during the holidays, sparked by a tragic DUI death. The conversation then pivots to the economy, highlighting a stunning 4.3% GDP growth report, shrinking government payrolls, and what Joe describes as an “avalanche” of private-sector investment coming into the U.S. Could massive construction projects, factory builds, and AI infrastructure fuel a multi-year economic boom, and are voters about to feel the economic shift? The hour closes with an assessment of Democratic infighting, collapsing approval ratings, affordability messaging, and what it all could mean heading into the 2026 midterms.

Guests: Captain James Fanell (USN Ret.) and Bradley Thayer. The authors draw parallels between current U.S.policy and the British Empire's 1919 "10-year rule," which underfunded defense and ignored rising threats. They criticize the U.S. response to the 1989 Tiananmen Square massacre, noting that the Bush administration rushed to re-engage rather than isolate the CCP. Fanell recalls that intelligence agencies remained focused on Russia, failing to perceive the Chinese military buildup as a credible threat until it was too late.

Behind the scenes of 2025's biggest federal decisions shaping access, seasons, and the future of hunting and fishing. As the final feature episode of 2025, this conversation takes a clear-eyed look at how federal policy quietly shaped the year for hunters, anglers, and public-land users nationwide. Host Fred Bird sits down with Chris Horton, Congressional Sportsmen's Foundation Sr. Director of Fisheries Policy, to unpack the legislative wins, hard-fought battles, and unfinished business that directly affect how and where we hunt and fish. The discussion starts with the MAPWaters Act, landmark legislation headed to the President's desk that brings long-overdue clarity to public water access. From waterfowl hunting access points to inland fishing regulations, standardized digital maps will help sportsmen understand where they can launch, hunt, and fish without guesswork or accidental violations. The conversation then moves offshore, where progress on MAPOceans promises similar clarity for saltwater anglers navigating seasons, closures, and marine boundaries. Get an insider breakdown of fisheries management victories, including momentum toward better red snapper data collection in the South Atlantic, and the decision to hold the line on striped bass restrictions amid strong rebuilding trends. These aren't abstract policy debates, they determine season length, access, and opportunity for recreational anglers. The Congressional Sportsmen's Foundation crew also highlights key reauthorizations that protect wetland habitat, support fisheries conservation funding, and safeguard science-based management. Finally, Chris looks ahead to 2026, outlining what hunters and anglers should watch as Congress returns to work.

California Justice Center attorney Emily Rae explains Judge Roger Benitez's blistering rebuke of California policies that encourage school officials, including teachers, to lie to parents about students' changing gender identity. Benitez on Monday said state AG Rob Bonta's defense of those policies has constitutional law “upside down.” The judge also ordered state officials to notify parents and guardians of their constitutional right to be informed -- and of teachers to inform them -- “when the student expresses gender incongruence.” Music by Metalachi.Email Us:dbahnsen@thebahnsengroup.comwill@calpolicycenter.orgFollow Us:@DavidBahnsen@WillSwaim@TheRadioFreeCAShow Notes:Judge's Permanent Injunction in Mirabelli v OlsonJudge's legal opinion in Mirabelli Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Since 1955, when Congress passed the Polio Vaccination Assistance Act, the federal government has been in the business of expanding access to vaccines. That is, until this year.2025 has been filled with almost daily news stories about federal agencies, under the direction of Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., casting doubts about vaccine safety, including unsubstantiated claims about links to autism. These agencies have also been taking steps that could roll back access to vaccines, including for hepatitis B and COVID-19.But we've found it very hard to sort out what these talking points and recommendations mean in practice. KFF Health News journalists Jackie Fortiér and Arthur Allen join Host Flora Lichtman to discuss, one year in, what this administration's stance on vaccines has meant practically—for vaccine access, and vaccine uptake.Guests: Arthur Allen is senior correspondent at KFF Health News and author of Vaccine: The Controversial Story of Medicine's Greatest Lifesaver.Jackie Fortiér is a Peggy Girshman fellow covering health policy at KFF Health News.Transcripts for each episode are available within 1-3 days at sciencefriday.com.
