Podcasts about public office

In this week's episode, Rex sits down with entrepreneur Andy McNeill and State Rep. Matt Duffield, R-Russellville, co-hosts of the Free Arkansas podcast, to discuss how open dialogue and practical policymaking could shape the state's future. Through their Free Arkansas podcast, the pair aim to challenge the status quo by fostering conversation, examining the state's rankings across key sectors and identifying tangible steps toward progress. Matt, who entered public service to be of help to his community, underscores the need to refocus on foundational issues, such as budgeting, infrastructure and effective governance in shaping public policy. The conversation also touches on the growing influence of national politics in local debates, with Rex, Matt and Andy arguing for a renewed emphasis on Arkansas-specific solutions to community and statewide issues. Looking toward the future, Matt and Andy point to Arkansas' natural assets, affordability and cultural values as key elements for long-term growth in a post-pandemic economy. From the steel boom in northeast Arkansas to outdoor tourism in the northwest portion of the state, the trio discuss what it would take to usher in an economic golden era. The conversation includes the consideration of factors such as community development, healthcare access and broadband internet expansion as critical steps toward progress. Ultimately, the three agree that a more vibrant, stronger Arkansas begins with better conversation and dialogue.

In this episode our hosts sit down with Tennessee State Senator Shane Reeves, a pharmacist-turned-legislator, to discuss his journey from pharmacy to public office. Senator Reeves shares his firsthand insights into the obstacles pharmacists face in patient care and policy, the role of pharmacy benefit managers (PBMs), and why transparency in health care pricing is crucial for patients. He also breaks down his legislative efforts to support independent pharmacies, improve medication adherence, and advocate for patient-first policies. Tune in for an engaging conversation on the intersection of health care and policy, and why patients should build strong relationships with their pharmacists. Among the highlights in this episode: 01:14: Sen. Reeves shares how his father’s role as both a pharmacist and public servant inspired his own path into politics 02:07: Sen. Reeves discusses the unique presence of multiple pharmacists in the Tennessee State Senate and how it benefits health care legislation 03:10: Sen. Reeves explains the role of pharmacy benefit managers (PBMs) in the health care system and how their increasing control has negatively impacted pharmacists and patients 04:39: Steven and Sen. Reeves discuss how PBMs evolved from cost controllers to powerful entities influencing patient care decisions 05:34: Sen. Reeves describes his legislative efforts to prevent “patient steering,” ensuring prescriptions are filled at the provider or patient’s preferred pharmacy 07:18: Sen. Reeves emphasizes the lack of price transparency in health care and provides an example from Singapore, explaining how full health care price transparency allows patients to know the costs of medical services upfront in contrast with the U.S. where prices are often hidden until after services are rendered 08:06: Sen. Reeves discusses the impact of PBMs on independent pharmacies and the struggle to keep small, community-based pharmacies in business 09:12: Steven and Sen. Reeves discuss the real-life consequences of PBMs interfering in patient care, including delayed access to life-saving medications 09:51: Sen. Reeves shares his advocacy for better medication adherence and the role of pharmacists in helping patients stay on track 12:15: Zoe and Steven reflect on the discussion, emphasizing the importance of having legislators with health care expertise in office Contact Our Hosts Steven Newmark, Chief of Policy at GHLF: snewmark@ghlf.org Zoe Rothblatt, Director of Community Outreach at GHLF: zrothblatt@ghlf.org A podcast episode produced by Ben Blanc, Director, Digital Production and Engagement at GHLF.

Numerous attempts to secure him German citizenship were attempted over the next few years, but it wasn't until 1932 that a solution was found when Dietrich Klagges, a Nazi Party member who was serving as the Minister of the Interior for the Free State of Brunswick, arranged for Hitler to be appointed as an administrator for the state's delegation to the Reichsrat in Berlin on 25 February ...

Show Notes: Jacinda Townsend shares her journey of living in 10 different states and two foreign countries, having four careers, including being an elected official, having a couple of kids, and doing various weird things.  Working in Law, Journalism, and Fiction When Jacinda graduated at 20, she went to law school, which was part of a straight trajectory she had imagined since childhood, and while she initially believed she would go into politics and return to Kentucky, she realized she did not want to pursue a career in law. After finishing her degree, she worked as a news commentator for the Christian Science Monitor network, which led to her being hired as a professional journalist to cover international and national politics. Jacinda was passionate about the news and TV news. Writing for the sound byte was a challenge for her, but she loved it because it allowed her to express herself politically and learn a lot about the English language. She decided she wanted to pursue writing seriously and is now a novelist. She also teaches at Brown University in the MFA program. Throughout her career, Jacinda explains, it has been random events and circumstances that led her to each position.  Motivated by Anger and Moving into Politics Jacinda talks about her career in politics and how it transpired fueled by her anger at issues she could not ignore. She shares her experiences as a sitting school board member in Bloomington, Indiana. She served in a progressive town with a lot of socio-economic segregation and disciplinary disparities by race and ethnicity which she could not ignore. Jacinda ran for re-election and was elected again, and this time, it was a landslide.  She moved to Michigan and was asked to run for the school board there. Jacinda talks about the issues tackled, changes made, and how integration has changed. Jacinda believes that the ideal of integration is not happening. She explains that segregation has increased with 80 percent of white kids going to a school where the percentage of white children is above 75 percent, and minority children and still 90 percent more likely to be in a minority school. She mentions that peak integration happened in 1987 and goes on to explain the driving factors behind the segregation.  Working as a Writer The conversation turns to her writing career, which includes the award-winning novel Mother Country and the forthcoming novel Trigger Warning. Jacinda talks about her routine, which includes a 500-word word count daily.  She also shares a story of working with a student who felt unsure about her writing, and how she copes with the uncertainty of working in the arts. She also shares her approach to keeping up with her characters, and uses random texts to remember what was going through the character's head and keeps up with them. This helps her keep up with the story and remember the characters' reactions to things. When writing a novel, Jacinda immerses herself in the character's world, trying to experience it through their eyes. She doesn't take breaks during the writing process, as she believes that the imagination begets the imagination, and when living with her characters every day, it becomes like a muscle memory. When she returns to the story, she can remember every bit of why she did something, making her work more enjoyable and fulfilling. Living in Foreign Countries Jacinda was a Fulbright student in Cote d'Ivoire, and she has lived in two foreign countries, including Mali and Morocco. While in Mali, she encountered modern-day slavery. She also went to Morocco and visited Mauritania, where 20% of the population is enslaved. She explains that Mauritania is a remote country where it is like stepping back 500 years. It is difficult to escape slavery, as employment is caste-based, so if they escape slavery, there is no work. She met an escaped slave and her family, who gave birth to her last of eight children while escaping slavery. Jacinda shares that holding this baby was a profound moment in her life, and it was this experience that led to her novel, Mother Country. Jacinda explains that the reason no-one knows about the slavery issues in Mauritania is because it is not often mentioned in the news. The media is state-run, and the slavery system is brutally enforced. It is also difficult to get to due to its remoteness so there are very few Western visitors. People there often believe they should be slaves, that it is divinely ordained.   Influential Classes and Professors at Harvard Jacinda mentions Martin Kilson, a brilliant political scholar. She was initially shy in his class, but after her campus activism went viral, he hugged her and said, "You're brilliant." This was a moment that made her feel like she belonged there for the first time. Jacinda appreciates the gift of Martin Kilson's support and tries to make her students feel seen when they are quiet and nervous. She believes that making people feel heard is important and that she will never forget the gift of his presence. Jacinda Townsend shares her campus activism story. At the time she had no idea of the impact this would have. One night, the Boston Police came to her room. She was alone, but before she knew it, seven girls showed up who had come to support her. This experience taught her to speak on television and that even in difficult times, it's important to be there for others, and that others will be there for you, if you share a common belief.  Timestamps: 01:59: Early Career and Education  07:51: Public Office and School Board Experience  22:11: Writing Career and Novels  30:22: Experiences in Foreign Countries  36:39: Personal Reflections and Life Philosophy 40:15: Campus Activism and Media Experience  48:10: Impact of Media and Public Perception  48:27: Final Thoughts and Future Plans  Links: Website:   https://jacindatownsend.com/about-me/ Featured Non-profit "Hi, I'm Khedrub, Class of 1992.

Rapp Report episode 321 Dusty Devers and Andrew Rappaport engage in a thought-provoking discussion about the necessity of Christians stepping into the political arena, emphasizing that silence in the face of societal decay is not an option. They argue that the separation of faith from public life allows for a moral vacuum that can lead to dire consequences, akin to historical tragedies. Devers shares his journey as a state senator and the importance of being bold in advocating for justice and righteousness, especially regarding issues like abortion. The conversation highlights the need for young men to count the cost before entering politics, balancing their convictions with the realities of public service. Ultimately, they stress the significance of standing firm in one's faith, not just for personal integrity but for the future generations who will inherit the consequences of today's decisions.The episode presents a stimulating dialogue between Andrew Rappaport and Dusty Devers, centering on the imperative for Christians to assert their influence in political realms. The discussion is set against the backdrop of the Fight Laugh Feast conference, where both speakers reflect on their experiences and the challenges of maintaining faith-driven convictions in public office. Dusty elaborates on the vital role of integrity in leadership, emphasizing that public servants must embody the virtues they advocate for, especially in the context of defending life and justice. This discussion resonates deeply with the current societal landscape, where the erosion of moral values is increasingly evident in political discourse.Andrew and Dusty delve into the theological foundations of their arguments, positing that Christians are biblically mandated to engage with the culture around them, rather than retreating from it. They discuss the concept of being an 'upstander,' a term that encapsulates the proactive stance Christians should take against injustices and moral failings in society. Dusty shares insights from his own political journey, illustrating how a commitment to faith can shape legislative priorities and influence community standards. Throughout the conversation, they draw parallels between personal accountability and public integrity, urging listeners to reflect on their roles as agents of change in their respective spheres.The episode serves as a clarion call for believers to recognize their potential impact in the political sphere, encouraging them to step forward with confidence and resolve. Dusty offers practical wisdom for those considering a political path, advocating for a foundation of faithfulness in personal and community responsibilities before seeking office. The underlying message is clear: engaging in politics is not merely a civic duty; it is a vital expression of one's faith and commitment to the principles of the Kingdom of God. The dialogue concludes with a heartfelt exhortation to embrace the calling to influence culture, echoing the sentiment that a lack of participation from Christians only paves the way for further secularization.Takeaways: Engaging in politics as a Christian requires counting the cost of public scrutiny. Being involved in local government can significantly influence the culture of your community. Christians should actively participate in political spheres to uphold biblical principles and values. Men must provide leadership in their homes before pursuing roles in public office. True ministry is about glorifying God, not building personal platforms or reputations. The battle for righteousness begins in the home and extends to the public arena. This podcast is a ministry of Striving for Eternity and all our resources Listen to other...

Kaitlin Sidorsky's new book, All Roads Lead to Power: The Appointed and Elected Paths to Public Office for US Women (University Press of Kansas, 2019), is an extremely well written and important analysis of women in public life and public service. This book combines qualitative and quantitative research to examine appointed and elected state positions, particularly in regard to gender, and concludes that there are quite a few women in appointed positions, an area not usually the focus of research and analysis of women and power. Sidorsky notes that women in appointed positions on boards and commissions at the state and local level see themselves not in political positions but instead working in capacities to accomplish goals, serve the public, and continue along their career paths. In the way many of these women conceptualize their work in these positions, this is not necessarily about political ambition, as Sidorsky's research discovers, but because this public work is usually connected to the individual office holder's personal or professional life. This research will be of particular interest to those who study women and politics, political representation, and questions of politics and power. This is an excellent study and analysis, enlightening in both the data compiled and the assessment of the data within our understanding of appointed and elected positions, politics, and power.

"Neurodiversity describes the idea that people experience and interact with the world around them in many different ways; there is no one "right" way of thinking, learning, and behaving, and differences are not viewed as deficits. The word neurodiversity refers to the diversity of all people, but it is often used in the context of autism spectrum disorder (ASD), as well as other neurological or developmental conditions such as ADHD or learning disabilities. The neurodiversity movement emerged during the 1990s, aiming to increase acceptance and inclusion of all people while embracing neurological differences. Through online platforms, more and more autistic people were able to connect and form a self-advocacy movement. At the same time, Judy Singer, an Australian sociologist, coined the term neurodiversity to promote equality and inclusion of "neurological minorities." While it is primarily a social justice movement, neurodiversity research and education is increasingly important in how clinicians view and address certain disabilities and neurological conditions." _ What is neurodiversity? - Harvard Health. “I am also called to do jury duty, be a television presenter, awards show host, creative executive, game show host, show/program creator, news director, show runner, executive producer, talk show host, and radio personality.” -Antonio Myers. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/antonio-myers4/support

In our latest episode, we interview Erin Loos Cutraro, the founder and CEO of She Should Run, a nonprofit dedicated to encouraging women to run for office - it's so needed! Did you know that women still hold less than 30% of all elected offices across the federal, state, and local level, and the numbers are even lower when looking at women from underrepresented communities? Black women comprise less than 6% of officeholders in Congress, statewide elective executive offices, and state legislatures; only 7.9% of all women state legislators identify as Latina; and, roughly 0.23 percent of U.S elected officials identify as LGBTQIA+. Women are still less likely than men to have thought about running for office or to express interest in running for office in the future. Women are less likely to have opted into leadership roles from a young age. In fact, few of us– less than 2%– grow up with the dream to run for office one day. There's lots of work to do!Before the interview, we chat about the movie American Fiction and how the Black American experience is portrayed in media. [00:02:22] Felicia and Rachel discuss the movie American Fiction.[00:10:50] Interview with Erin.[00:11:15] Origin story and childhood upbringing.[00:18:34] Challenges for women candidates.[00:22:42] Running for office aspirations.[00:23:46] Women in political roles.[00:29:35] Nonpartisan space and misconceptions.[00:33:13] Running for public office journey.[00:36:17] Women's surge after 2016 election.[00:41:17] A different political climate.[00:45:35] Overcoming political exhaustion and paralysis.[00:49:12] Finding women who aren't looking.[00:53:12] The importance of diverse opinions.[00:57:28] Future goals and hopes.[01:00:49] The opportunity in Gen Z. Links mentioned:https://sheshouldrun.orghttps://www.linkedin.com/in/erinlooscutraro Visit us at https://shegeeksout.com to stay up to date on all the ways you can make the workplace work for everyone!

The Rich Zeoli Show- Hour 2: On Monday, a Colorado District Court heard opening arguments in a legal case challenging Donald Trump's eligibility to appear on Colorado presidential ballots in 2024. Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics argues that former President Donald Trump is disqualified from holding office under the Fourteenth Amendment's insurrection clause—alleging that Trump incited an insurrection on January 6th, 2021. On Monday, the National Archives revealed that President Joe Biden exchanged 82,000 emails under pseudonyms while serving as Vice President in the Obama Administration. Josh Christenson of The New York Post writes: “at least 10 missives were sent between May 18 and June 15, 2016, and cc'd first son Hunter Biden—with one on May 26 notifying Hunter of a scheduled phone call the next day between the vice president and Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko.” You can read more here: https://nypost.com/2023/10/31/news/biden-exchanged-82000-pages-of-private-emails-as-vice-president-lawsuit/ Senator Rand Paul—United States Senator from Kentucky & Author of “Deception: The Great Covid Cover-Up”—joins The Rich Zeoli Show. Throughout the book Sen. Paul presents evidence that COVID-19 likely originated in a Wuhan, China laboratory and was a by-product of dangerous gain-of-function research. Was the research funded by U.S. taxpayers? And did Dr. Anthony Fauci attempt to cover-up the virus's origin? Sen. Paul says, “if I had it my way, Anthony Fauci would already be wearing pinstripes.” Plus, Sen. Paul reacts to Elon Musk's assessment that, prior to his ownership, Twitter suppressed Republican posts at 10x the rate of Democrats—accusing the social media platform of ostensibly being “a state publication.” Sen. Paul believes “without question Elon Musk is right.” You can order Paul's new book here: https://www.regnery.com/9781684515134/deception/

Stigall is teed up and teed off today at the suggestion by many in the GOP and even some on cable news that everything from the discussion of life to the discussion of impeaching Joe Biden is something we should avoid. Also, anyone curious about the fires in Maui or no?
