Dan and Ellen talk with Stacy Feldman, founder and publisher of Boulder Reporting Lab. The Lab is a nonprofit newsroom covering Boulder, Colorado. She launched the Lab in late 2021 to fill critical gaps in news coverage in a state where newspapers have been gobbled up by Alden Global Capital, a secretive hedge fund. Alden is known for gutting papers, not growing them. Stacy was co-founder and executive editor of Inside Climate News, a Pulitzer Prize-winning nonprofit newsroom focused on the climate crisis. She developed her plans for the Boulder Reporting Lab during a fellowship at the University of Colorado at Boulder. Her newsroom provided crucial reporting on the recent antisemitic attacks in Boulder.  Dan has a Quick Take later on a huge threat to one of the most important cogs in the regional news ecosystem. I'm referring, of course, to public radio and television, which face huge cuts after the Republican-led House voted recently to cancel $1.1 billion in funding over the next two years that it had previously approved. Now the measure moves to the Senate, which has to take a vote on it by mid-July. Regardless of what happens, this is the closest public media has ever come to an extinction-level event. Ellen's Quick Take is on local news coverage of the assassination of a Minnesota legislator and her husband. Minnesota news consumers have a lot of great media options, and these newsrooms stepped up bigtime to cover this crisis.  

In this Quick Take, I'm addressing a concerning trend I'm seeing across healthcare facilities - the practice of concluding diversion investigations based solely on software analytics and audit data, without ever speaking to the healthcare professional involved.Too many facilities are looking at their monitoring reports, conducting deep-dive audits of documentation and waste records, and then making a determination that unusual patterns are simply "practice issues" rather than potential diversion. But here's the problem: you can't possibly know that without having a conversation with the individual.This shortcut approach creates significant safety risks and misses opportunities to identify both actual diversion and legitimate practice concerns that need addressing. Every facility needs to evaluate their investigation process and ask themselves: who is making the decision about whether to interview staff, and what criteria are they using?The interview process doesn't have to be adversarial or make staff feel targeted. When done correctly, it's simply a professional conversation to understand the full picture behind the data. But skipping this critical step entirely? That's a gap that puts both patients and facilities at risk.

A true highlight from Cannes: sitting down with the one and only Sir John Hegarty - founder of BBH. Decades of experience, distilled into one conversation that's packed into just 5 minutes.

It's been a massive month for Paralympian Jaryd Clifford. Fresh off breaking his own World Record in the T12 1500m, Jaryd joins Elise Beacom to talk about his race in Nice, France, where he ran 3:40.34 in a return to career-best form. Jaryd also speaks out about his competitor, Spanish athlete Yassine Ouhdadi who's recently been handed a three-year suspension after testing positive for banned anabolic steroid, Clostebol. Ouhdadi won gold in the T13 5000m at the Paris Paralympics and will forfeit his medal because the test sample was taken before the games. Ouhdadi beat Jaryd (who won silver) at both T13 5000m events at the Tokyo Paralympics in 2021 and the World Championships in Paris 2023.

Dan and Ellen talk with Rahul Bhargava, a colleague at Northeastern University. Rahul is a professor who crosses boundaries: the boundaries of storytelling and data, the boundaries of deep dives into collaborative research and interactive museum exhibits and plays. He holds a master's degree in media arts and science from MIT, and a bachelor's degree in electrical and computer engineering from Carnegie Mellon University. But he also minored in multimedia production. He brings the power of big data research to the masses, through newsroom workshops, interactive museum exhibits, and more. Rahul has collaborated with groups in Brazil, in Minnesota and at the World Food Program. He helps local communities use data to understand their world, and as a tool for change. There's more to data than just bar charts. Sometimes it involves forks! His book, "Community Data," unlocks all sorts of secrets. Dan and Ellen also talk with Lisa Thalhamer, a longtime TV journalist who is now a graduate student at Northeastern. Lisa realized that like many fields, journalism suffers from a gap between academic research and its implementation in workplaces. She is finding ways to bridge that gap, and urges an Avenger's-style team to lift up the work of a free press. Ellen has a Quick Take on a recent visit to Santa Barbara, California, and the efforts to revive a legacy paper, the Santa Barbara News-Press. Dan's Quick Take is about the latest development from the National Trust for Local News. It involves a chain of weekly papers in Colorado — their very first acquisition dating back to 2021. And it's not good news at all for the journalists who work at those papers and the communities they serve.  

Alencia Johnson (presidential adviser and cultural commentator) speaks with Michael Steele about how rest and self-preservation can be an act of resistance in today's political climate.
