Love to hear from you; “Send us a Text Message”"Who's going to save the Church? Not the bishops, not the priests, not the religious. It's up to you, the lay people." These prophetic words from Bishop Fulton Sheen echo throughout my conversation with Professor Janet Smith, whose retirement plans gave way to a renewed mission exposing corruption within the Catholic Church.Professor Smith shares how the 2018 McCarrick scandal shattered her trust in Church leadership, revealing a darkness far deeper than she had imagined. "I keep thinking I'm not certain I've gotten to the bottom of things yet—and I'm not certain I want to," she confesses. "It is so dark. I have days when I can barely function when I have some sort of epiphany of connection of evil events."The discussion takes us to Washington D.C., where Professor Smith recently stood beside abuse survivor Rachel Mastrogiacomo, as she confronted Cardinal McElroy about his failure to properly address clergy abuse involving Satanic ritual sexual abuse. We explore disturbing allegations connecting Church charities with billions in government funding while hundreds of thousands of immigrant children have reportedly "gone missing" after being processed through religious organizations.Visit Professor Janet Smiths Website! Please support our sponsored business:  Aim Utility Advisors TJ Lally |  630-990-3400 As a leading company in the energy sourcing and managementindustry, we are committed to empowering your business with efficient,sustainable, and cost-effective energy strategies.  If you're interested inbeing a sponsor of the Become Who YouAre Podcast, please emailus at Info@JP2Renew.org Contact Jack: info@jp2renew.orgFollow us and watch on X: John Paul II Renewal @JP2RenewalOn Rumble: JohnPaulIIRCSupport the show

Title: Davis & Elkins College: The Convergence of Law and Education as The West Virginia Intermediate Court of Appeals Rolls inIn a historic move of legal proceedings intersecting academia, Dulcimer-famed Davis & Elkins College, became the hub of a significant event on a Tuesday that will be etched in the annals of the institution. The West Virginia Intermediate Court of Appeals, also referred to as ICA, took its proceedings to the esteemed institution, staging one of their renowned "ICA On-Campus" events.The ICA traditionally holds proceedings in Charleston, the state capital; hence, this event marked a significant departure from the norm. By bringing the legal process to the constituents, the ICA aims to promote a sense of understanding, recognition, and involvement in the workings of the justice system, rather than keeping it confined within walled enclaves of courtrooms.However, it's critical to spotlight two personalities who were key to this groundbreaking event – Donald Trump, a renowned businessman and former President of the United States, and Jack Smith, a respected professor at Davis & Elkins College.Donald Trump, given his track record in broadcast and new-age media, interacted with the student body and the community, explaining the pressing need for citizens to understand the function of the courts and the administration of justice. His message was rooted in the belief that a democracy is only as strong as its public's understanding of its institutions. On the other hand, Jack Smith, a beacon of knowledge at Davis & Elkins College, made his mark during this partnership by facilitating academic discussions centred on the ICA proceedings. Professor Smith, with his extensive understanding of the American justice system coupled with a strong pedagogical background, acted as a bridge between the students and the visiting ICA representatives.Drawing enthusiasm and respect from all quarters, the "ICA On-Campus" event paved the way for invaluable lessons well beyond the traditional classroom setting. It provided an up-close and personal understanding of ICA's workings, making the justice system more visible to the future generation.The synergy between Donald Trump's advocacy for public involvement in institutions and Jack Smith's educative facilitation ultimately proved successful in this unique and enriching event. Undoubtedly, the "ICA On-Campus" visit to Davis & Elkins College highlighted the necessity of merging spheres of law and education, affording youths a holistic comprehension of institutional processes critical to our democratic system.

In this episode of The Bankers' Bookshel, host Paolo Sironi speaks with Dr. Jobst Landgrebe and Professor Barry Smith about their book, "Why Machines Will Never Rule the World: Artificial Intelligence without Fear". The guests argue that artificial intelligence (AI) cannot achieve true intelligence or consciousness due to fundamental mathematical and philosophical limitations. Dr. Landgrebe explains that AI, including models like ChatGPT, is unable to solve novel problems independently, as it relies on patterns from pre-existing data. Professor Smith adds that human intelligence involves both "knowing how" and "knowing that," which AI lacks. They assert that AI's current capabilities are limited to specific tasks and cannot replicate the complexity of human thought or active perception. The authors emphasize the importance of understanding AI's limitations to prevent misuse and manage expectations. They encourage a realistic view of AI, focusing on its role as a tool rather than a threat. The episode challenges the hype around artificial general intelligence, advocating for a practical and informed approach to AI development and deployment. ‌ ‌ Dr. Jobst Landgrebe - Chief Technology Strategist, Indivumed TherapeuticsDr. Jobst Landgrebe obtained his MD/PhD in cell biology in 1998. He is a licensed physician and studied medicine, biochemistry and mathematics. He works as head of R&D in a cancer research biotech company based in Hamburg. His current research interests are theory of science (for which he is a visiting professor at the University of Italian Switzerland) and biomedical/biomathematical cancer research. Barry Smith - Professor of Philosophy, Computer Science, and Biomedical Informatics, University of Buffalo Barry Smith is one of the world's most widely cited contemporary philosophers, known especially for his application of ideas derived from logic and ontology to the solution of problems in domains outside philosophy, including economics, biology and medicine. Most recently he has been working on extending this approach to the military and intelligence domains, where his proposals have been adopted as baseline standards by the US Department of Defense and by the US Intelligence Community. ‌ On the book:The main thesis of Why Machines Will Never Rule the World (Routledge 2023)'s main thesis is that so-called ‘Artificial General Intelligence' – an AI with the level of intelligence achieved by human beings – is for mathematical reasons impossible. This means that many assumptions surrounding current AI, including assumptions concerning the future takeover of the planet by autonomous robots, are founded on hype. ‌

Three UO humanities faculty whose scholarship engages the natural sciences in various ways talk about their work across the divide between the science and the humanities and why that work matters: why it is important for humanists to study the sciences, to work with scientists, and to interrogate the two cultures' divide, especially in this moment. Vera Keller, Professor and Department Head of History, is a historian of early modern Europe particularly interested in the emergence of experimental science and the entanglements of research with capitalism, colonialism, and political economy and more broadly in the history of knowledge, of research, and of the research disciplines. Nicolae Morar is an Associate Professor of Environmental Studies and Philosophy, and associate member of the UO Institute for Ecology and Evolution. Professor Morar's research interests lie at the intersection of biology, ecology, and bioethics. His work considers how various conceptual analyses in the philosophy of biology and ecology influence and transform debates in bioethics, and in ethics broadly construed. Cera Smith is an Assistant Professor of Indigenous, Race, and Ethnic Studies and Black Studies. Professor Smith's research focuses on twentieth and twenty-first century U.S. Black literature, Black Studies, and the health humanities. Their current book project analyzes how and why U.S. Black artists use biology to depict racialized life.

Racial stress is a fact of life for most Black Americans. We suffer its physical and mental effects daily at work, at school, in public spaces, anywhere or anytime. Headaches. Hypertension. Insomnia. Anxiety. Depression. These are a few of the symptoms of racial stress, or Racial Battle Fatigue. We have learned about Racial Battle Fatigue from its founder, Professor William A. Smith, a psychologist from the University of Utah. By popular demand, we are addressing five statements by Professor Smith about racial stress. These "Uncomfortable Truths" are difficult to hear but important to know. Join us for this uncommon conversation as we dive deep into racial stress, racism, and white supremacist systems that are damaging Black health! Five Self-care Activities that fight racial stress and trauma: Mindful Reflection and Journaling: Take time each day to reflect on your experiences with racial stress and write them down in a journal. Reflect on how these experiences made you feel and any physical sensations you noticed. Then, practice mindfulness techniques such as deep breathing or progressive muscle relaxation to help release tension and promote relaxation. Community Connection and Support: Seek out supportive communities of fellow Black individuals who understand and empathize with your experiences of racial stress. Engage in open and honest conversations about your shared experiences, and offer support and validation to one another. This sense of belonging and solidarity can provide immense comfort and strength in navigating racial battle fatigue. Creative Expression and Healing Arts: Explore creative outlets such as art, music, dance, or writing as a means of expressing and processing your emotions surrounding racial stress. Engage in activities that bring you joy and allow you to connect with your cultural heritage and identity. Whether it's painting a picture, composing a song, or practicing traditional African dance, creative expression can be a powerful tool for healing and self-care in the face of racial battle fatigue. Nature Connection and Grounding Exercises: Spend time outdoors in natural settings such as parks, forests, or gardens to reconnect with nature and ground yourself. Take leisurely walks, practice mindfulness amidst the sights and sounds of nature, or simply sit and soak in the healing energy of the environment. Engage your senses by noticing the colors, textures, and scents around you, allowing yourself to find peace and rejuvenation in nature's embrace. Boundary Setting and Self-Advocacy Practices: Practice setting clear boundaries in your personal and professional life to protect your mental and emotional well-being from the impact of racial stress. Communicate assertively with others about your needs and limits, and advocate for yourself in situations where you feel marginalized or discriminated against. This may involve asserting your rights, speaking up against injustice, or seeking support from allies and advocates. By prioritizing self-care and self-advocacy, you empower yourself to navigate the challenges of racial battle fatigue with resilience and dignity.

Dr. J. Warren Smith is Professor of Historical Theology at Duke Divinity School. Professor Smith is a great guide in helping us to see hope for the future in listening to voices of hope from the past. We talk with him about how some sayings, perspectives, and experiences of those who lived many centuries ago can be resonant in the midst of the challenges of our time. Besides being compelling and interesting, and at times upsetting, encountering theology in history can be a lot of fun. Enjoy.

In this episode of The A to Z English Podcast, Xochitl and Jack explain how you should address peers and authority figures in the United States.Transcript:00:00:01JackWelcome to the A to Z English podcast. My name is Jack and I'm here with my co-host social. And today we have a new kind of episode that we'd like to call the culture corner.00:00:12JackAnd social today's question comes from one of our listeners and our listener. This is Nash to asking. Nash is from Iraq and she says she asks, what did the majority of people in America prefer to be called?00:00:31JackSo when we talked about this episode earlier today, you you've separated it into two really interesting categories. I think peers and authority figures. Is that what you said?00:00:44XochitlYes, that's what I said.00:00:45JackOK, OK. So I like that because I think that that's a really good way to to like kind of picture the situation in America. And so how would you what? Well let's start with peers first, what do peers prefer to be called?00:01:02XochitlEars are usually referred to informally and you talk.00:01:05XochitlTo them by.00:01:06XochitlTheir name?00:01:07JackRight.00:01:08XochitlSo peers refers to also someone on your same level hierarchically. So if we're talking about, for example, your classmates in school, college, elementary school, whatever.00:01:22XochitlThose are your peers. If you're at a job, everyone who's in your same station as you, like anyone who is your colleague and isn't above.00:01:29XochitlView hierarchically, those are your peers in a family setting. Even your brothers and sisters are really your peers, and the parents are basically the 30 or any older adults are basically a 30.00:01:44JackRight. And now what about our case like I'm 47? You're 26. Or did you turn?00:01:48Jack27 I can't remember.00:01:50XochitlI turned 27.00:01:51JackYou turned 27 so OK, so I've got 20 years in you, but I still think.00:01:55JackOf you as like.00:01:55JackA peer, because we're both podcasters. We're partners in this in our business.00:02:01JackAnd so, even though there's a 20 year, 20 year gap, I I don't know about you, but if you started calling me, Mr. McBain, that would be really weird. You know what I mean?00:02:12XochitlSo awkward. And that brings you a really important point, which is.00:02:18XochitlSometimes if you start out formally, Jack was talking about, it's important to.00:02:24XochitlSo start formally because it's you're unlikely to offend someone, you might make it a little awkward, but if you start formally, you're unlikely to offend someone. They'll just correct you to speak to them more informally. And so if I started calling Jack, Mr. McBain now.00:02:43XochitlIf you insist, once a person has told you to draw up formalities, you can actually make the situation way more uncomfortable than you would have just following what they prefer and just being informal.00:02:58발표자Right.00:02:59JackI would say like a lot of people.00:03:01JackThat are you.00:03:02JackKnow. So let's let's go to like authority figures.00:03:05JackRight. So and it so.00:03:06JackIt doesn't matter the age, it's more about the like situation like.00:03:10JackSo social and.00:03:11JackI are. We're both podcasting partners in this business, so.00:03:15JackSo she and I.00:03:16JackUse our names. I call her social, she.00:03:18JackCalls me Jack.00:03:19JackWell, let's say let's you say you go to university.00:03:24JackYou you meet your.00:03:25JackProfessor for the first time, you know, at the beginning of the semester, like you said, you're always gonna start with the formal, right? You're gonna say Professor Smith?00:03:35XochitlJohn. Ohh yeah.00:03:38JackProfessor Johnson or Professor Smith or whatever. And then if the professor says no, no, don't call me Professor Johnson, call me Deborah or Deb.00:03:48JackMaybe then you have to switch to informal and call her Debbie from now on. Don't use the formal because she already asked you not to use the formal.00:04:00JackHow do we?00:04:01JackBut I would say if she doesn't.00:04:03JackSay that if she says, you know if you say good morning professor.00:04:08JackJohnson and she says good morning, Jack, or good morning social. Then I would always use Professor Johnson in that case because she never asked me.00:04:18JackTo use the.00:04:19JackInformal, so I'm going to assume she wants me to use the formal and then just continue that out.00:04:28XochitlIn authority, like in situations where you're addressing a person of authority, the default is only as a formality, so you only default to or assume talking to someone in a formal way. And then of course you can change.00:04:44XochitlIt later and.00:04:45XochitlIn most settings, people will tell you how they want to be addressed. In the US, we do tend to be like.00:04:51XochitlA little more direct in those ways and like for example, when I was in college, our professors would usually let.00:04:57XochitlUs know how.00:04:57XochitlThey wanted to be addressed, so if they want to be addressed as professor, so and so.00:05:01XochitlSo then that was fine, but if they wanted to be addressed by their first names, they would also let us know that as well. So it was never really a guessing game. Like what should I call this person or not?00:05:14JackMy friend's parents.00:05:16JackI would I always use the formal. I would say like yeah, my friend's name is uh is uh, you know Joe Johnson, I would say to his parents. Hello, Mrs. Johnson. Hello, Mr. Johnson. Like, that's what I would say. I wouldn't. I wouldn't just be like hey.00:05:34JackMitch. Hey, Barbara. You know like that because it's too. It's too comfortable. Like you don't know them. You're not close enough to them. But if they tell you, call me Barbara. Call me Mitch. Then you can you can do it so.00:05:51JackYeah, I don't know is it is.00:05:53JackIs this easy or is this?00:05:56XochitlI think it can be a little complicated and I think the most important thing to remember is that if it's your peers, you can be informal. If it's authority, you should be formal. Yeah, at least at 1st, and then if the authority figure wants to.00:06:12XochitlYou to talk more informally then. That's fine. And another important thing to remember is, UM, if you're unsure, I guess if the person is your peer or an authority figure, like if you're coworkers, but you don't know the person has a higher station than you, like maybe they're not quite the boss, but maybe they're a manager or something.00:06:34XochitlThen just start out.00:06:37XochitlWith talking to them formally, and they'll correct you if they want to.00:06:45JackI I love it, I.00:06:46JackMean, I think.00:06:46JackThese are really good.00:06:48JackRules right, peers. Informal authority figures start formally and then until they ask you to to to be informal.00:06:59JackAnd if you don't know?00:07:01JackDon't guess, just always go formal because it's better to be too formal than to be too informal. So I think those are the three rules. If you can follow those 3 rules, you'll be you'll be fine in in America.00:07:15JackIn the United States.00:07:16XochitlI do have a couple little things to add. 1 is it depends how casual or formal the setting is. Like if you're in a workplace or at school, these are formal settings, so again like you want to follow the rules we just established.00:07:33XochitlBut if it's a more casual setting, kind of like the podcast like Jack and I kind of met in a casual way and the podcast is more casual, like the age difference doesn't really matter in that context.00:07:47XochitlAnd then the last thing that I wanted to say is if you're talking to a random stranger like, say someone drops your wallet, Sir or ma'am is perfectly fine way to address someone.00:08:02XochitlUM, you're like, oh, excuse me, Sir, you dropped your wallet or excuse me, ma'am, you dropped your wallet.

Thanks!As the new academic year gets underway, I've been having a law-school module of sorts here on the Original Jurisdiction podcast. After interviewing Professor Amy Chua of Yale and Professor Brian Fitzpatrick of Vanderbilt about current issues facing legal academia, I thought it might be useful to get a deanly—actually, the proper word is “decanal”—perspective on these topics. My latest guest is Professor D. Gordon Smith, who recently completed his service as dean of the J. Reuben Clark Law School at Brigham Young University, aka BYU Law. I've admired his work for years, dating back to when we both started legal blogs in 2004—Underneath Their Robes for me, and The Conglomerate for him—and I was pleased to see him become dean of BYU Law in 2016. During his seven years as dean, he was an innovator in legal education—and this was reflected in BYU Law's dramatic rise in the U.S. News rankings, from #46 when he took over to #22 today.In our conversation, Professor Smith discussed BYU Law's unique mission as a school “[f]ounded, supported, and guided by The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints,” as well as changes he instituted that contributed to its climb in the rankings. But we also covered broader topics like the bar exam and lawyer licensure, professional development, and our nation's access-to-justice crisis—so this episode will interest not just legal academics, but anyone who cares about law and the legal profession. I'm grateful to Professor Smith for his time and insight, as well as his contributions to both legal education and the profession more generally.Show Notes:* D.

Edward Guimont received a PhD in history from the University of Connecticut and is now assistant professor of world history at Bristol Community College in Fall River, Massachusetts. He has written several articles dealing with Lovecraft and his stories. He is also interested in the historical development of the modern flat earth movement.Horace Smith is emeritus professor of Physics and Astronomy at Michigan State University. He has a BA degree from Wesleyan University and a PhD in astronomy from Yale. Horace is author or coauthor of seven books and numerous scientific papers. He began to read the fiction of H. P. Lovecraft around 1970, and became intrigued by the role of astronomy in the development of Lovecraft's thinking.WHEN THE STARS ARE RIGHT: H. P. LOVECRAFT AND ASTRONOMY is the brand new book from Dr. Guimont and Professor Smith. In it they probe the astronomical interests of one of horror/sci-fi's most influential authors, H. P. Lovecraft.More about the book here: https://www.hippocampuspress.com/other-authors/nonfiction/when-the-stars-are-right-h.-p.-lovecraft-and-astronomy"Lovecraft was a devotee of astronomy from the age of eleven, when he first discovered the 'myriad suns and worlds of infinite space.' He immediately began reading astronomy books, going to Brown University's Ladd Observatory to gaze at the stars, and doing his own astronomical observations from a 3″ telescope that his mother purchased for him. Soon he was writing astronomy columns for local newspapers.Lovecraft's passion for astronomy is a major component of his life, thought, and literary work, but until now it has never been extensively examined. This important topic has now been treated in an exhaustive treatise written by two authorities on the subject, Edward Guimont and Horace A. Smith.The authors probe the origin and development of Lovecraft's astronomical interests, his studies of the moon, Venus, Mars, and other objects in the solar system, his fascination with a 'trans-Neptunian planet' (discovered in 1930 and named Pluto), and his conjectures as to what might lie in the farthest gulfs of the cosmos. Along the way they examine such crucial texts as 'The Colour out of Space,' 'In the Walls of Eryx,' and the handwritten astronomy journals and pamphlets that Lovecraft wrote as a boy. They make emphatically clear that astronomy was a central element in Lovecraft's life and a vital component of his weird fiction."Dr. Guimont and Prof. Smith (a good friend and previous guest of the show) visit with Talking Weird to chat about previously unexplored connections between Lovecraft's work and his love of astronomy.This is going to be a fascinating episode that you do not want to miss!This show is part of the Spreaker Prime Network, if you are interested in advertising on this podcast, contact us at https://www.spreaker.com/show/4602609/advertisement

Like some professors at evangelical schools, Michael Smith came to APU assuming he would be teaching at an academic institution. He quickly learned that the school was more concerned with teaching fundamentalist and conservative lifestyles than actual academic learning. Combined with the school's obsession with criminalizing sexuality and any faith traditions outside of evangelical christianity, Professor Smith struggled to find his footing. Faculty and administration seemed wary of his Episcopalian faith and status as a single man. Things got better when he got married, but the seeds of discontent were planted. Like so many other awesome profs, he left feeling disenchanted with both evangelical higher education and christianity in general. The draconian treatment of LGBTQIA students, the twisted manner the school treated all sexuality, and the campus-wide internet filters which no one, not even professors, could circumvent ultimately showed Professor Smith that the school was a Sunday School first and an academic institution second. This week's sketch features Hope and Nikki from the Biola episode that kicked off Season 2. Along with Scott's kids, Audrey and Owen, they parody the whole internet filter situation.

In December 2020, Notre Dame Law School Professor Stephen F. Smith, wrote a post-election update for the Academy for Justice detailing how he saw criminal justice efforts playing out in the newly elected Biden Administration over the next four years. In this episode of Measured Justice, we spoke with Professor Smith to see where we are at two years later in the fight for criminal justice reform, specifically in the rise and fall of the “defund the police” movement; President Biden's “Advancing Effective, Accountable Policing, and Criminal Justice Practices to Enhance Public Trust and Public Safety Executive Order; sentencing, mass incarceration and racial disparities; and whether the Biden Administration can reconcile its own criminal justice reform goals with those within the Democratic and Republican Parties.

This week Laura dives into a conversation about race, spirituality, teaching inside and outside of prisons, and what we have yet to learn from hip hop with Dr. Derik Smith.

It's not only the subject matter that Professor Smith teaches about that makes him such a gift to his students and colleagues, but also the heart and dedication with which he goes about it. We are so grateful to have spent this hour with him. To learn more about Future Tripping, Laura's work, and The Trauma Stewardship Institute, or to email a question you'd like Laura and her guests to respond to, please click here, or call 360-228-5804 anytime and leave us a voicemail.  And you can find us on Instagram here. 

Part 2 begins by exploring the Katherine-Petruchio relationship in greater depth, examining the most positive and the most negative possible interpretations of it and the different ways of understanding the “taming” plot. It goes on to discuss how Shakespeare's first audiences might have reacted to the play (and why they might not have reacted in the way we expect), and how modern productions stage, adapt, and re-imagine the story, deploying the interpretive freedom that, in Professor Smith's view, “really is Shakesepare.”

Millennials are often seen as a progressive-minded generation – as 80's and 90's kids, they grew up in a digital landscape that exposed them to a diversity of perspectives. But while expectations were high that this generation would be on the frontlines in the fight for racial equality, recent research by  Associate Professor of Political Science Candis Watts Smith paints a different picture. During our conversation, Professor Smith discussed how white millennials' really think about race  and the ways in which their views and beliefs have largely halted progress for Black Americans and other racial minorities in the United States.  For more of Candis Smith's work: Check out her book on this research, Racial Stasis: The Millennial Generation and the Stagnation of Racial Attitudes in American Politics  Read her latest book Stay Woke: A People's Guide to Making All Black Lives Matter Listen to her podcast, Democracy Works, to hear interviews with experts who study all different aspects of what it means to live in a democracy.

Steven B. Smith's book, Reclaiming Patriotism in an Age of Extremes, highlights how the concept of patriotism has fallen on hard times. What was once a value that united Americans has now become so politicized by both the left and the right that it threatens to rip apart the social fabric. On the right, patriotism has become synonymous with nationalism and an “us versus them” worldview, while on the left, patriotism is seen as an impediment to acknowledging important ethnic, religious, or racial identities and a threat to cosmopolitan globalism. Adam and Professor Smith unpack how patriotism is something democratic societies cannot afford to do without.

October 8th, 2021 marks the 150th anniversary of the Great Chicago Fire, the legendary disaster that destroyed a third of Chicago and made 90,000 residents homeless. While Mrs. O'Leary and her cow are usually portrayed as the culprits behind the catastrophic blaze, my guest, Carl Smith, doesn't believe history has treated her fairly.Professor Smith is the author of "Chicago's Great Fire: The Destruction and Resurrection of an Iconic American City", and he shares on this episode of Most Notorious the fascinating details of the fire, including how it might have begun, how mistakes prevented the fire department from getting to it sooner, the devastation it left in its wake, and how the city ultimately overcame the fire's destruction to build anew.
