Omvändelseförsök av homosexuella har hamnat i hetluften. Kyrkhelgen i Karleby bjöd in teologen Ray Baker för att berätta hur han inte bejakar sina homosexuella känslor. Samtidigt behandlas ett medborgarinitiativ som vill kriminalisera omvändelseförsök i riksdagens lagutskott. Och där ser det ut att ha fastnat. Kristdemokraterna och Sannfinländarna stöder inte ett sådant lagförslag och inom Samlingspartiet har man kommit på kant med varandra. Kan eller bör man kriminalisera omvändelseförsök? I debatten deltar Ted Apter, politiker inom Samlingspartiet, Leif Westerlund, teolog och psykoterapeut och Johan Brandt till Grevnäs, styrelsemedlem i föreningen Malkus. Mikaela Löv leder ordet. E-post: slaget@yle.fi

Sedan det blev känt att Ray Baker ska dela sin livsberättelse – Varför jag inte är gay, trots att jag gillar killar – på Kyrkhelgen i Karleby, har påståenden om omvändelseterapi, andligt våld och krav på ändringar i programmet hörts i finska tidningar och i sociala medier. I Apologiapodden reder Ray ut de falska anklagelserna och förklarar hur kravet på flera perspektiv avslöjar en dubbelmoral. Du kan även se intervjun här. Rays dialog med Björn Vikström kan du se här.  Ray har skrivit om sexualitet bland annat i Det där med sex och Bekänna färg. Välkommen med frågor och synpunkter till podd@apologia.se!

“Why are you trying to do the Hitchcock stuff when your contemporary, Brian De Palma, is doing it much better? - Eric  On this week's WHM, we're kicking off the Summer Blockbuster Extravaganza with a chat about the Robert Zemeckis ghost house domestic thriller, What Lies Beneath! Was this one of the last major Hollywood films to have middle-aged people being this horny? Would the movie have been better if they didn't confirm the existence of a ghost in the world of the story? Isn't it great seeing James Remar play an academic non-scumbag? How unsettling is it to see Harrison Ford wear a Rolling Stones t-shirt? And how many Hitchcock “riffs” can you cram into one movie before someone has a suit on their hands? PLUS: We take a count of how many Harrison Ford characters go… downtown!  What Lies Beneath stars Michelle Pfeiffer, Harrison Ford, James Remar, Miranda Otto, Diana Scarwid, Ray Baker, Wendy Crewson, Amber Valletta, Micole Mercurio, and the great Joe Morton as Dr. Drayton; directed by Robert Zemeckis.

It's been three years since COVID-19 brought the country to a standstill. In March 2020, the pandemic shuttered library buildings and prompted staffers to shift programming and priorities for a changing world. In Episode 81, Call Number hears from three libraries that expanded, pivoted, and reimagined their offerings to reach community members who needed their services most. First, American Libraries Editor and Publisher Sanhita SinhaRoy talks with John Schaffer, the voice behind Curbside Larry, the character who went viral in 2020 for his infomercial-style videos advertising curbside services at Harris County (Tex.) Public Library. Then, American Libraries Managing Editor Terra Dankowski speaks with Ray Baker, director of Miami-Dade Public Library System in Florida, about the Drive-Up Wi-Fi initiative the library started in the early days of the pandemic. Finally, American Libraries associate editor and Call Number host Diana Panuncial chats with Julie Curry, principal of John K. Hubbard Elementary School in Noble, Oklahoma, and Courtney Gerow, signature services coordinator of Shawnee (Okla.) Public Library. The two are behind Sunday Stars, a tutoring program helping elementary school students across several counties recover from COVID-19 learning loss. Is there a story or topic you'd like us to cover?

You Might Know Her From Home Improvement, The West Wing, Strong Medicine, Ulee's Gold, Cubby, and The Parent Trap 3. Patricia Richardson understudied the role of Louise “Gypsy Rose” Lee in the 1974 Broadway revival of Gypsy opposite Angela Lansbury and we will never be the same. We talk about her auditioning for book writer Arthur Laurents, rehearsing with fellow understudy Mary Louise Wilson, and bemoaning Robert Tucker's pissy attitude (I mean, Zan, Nan, Ian). Patricia also revealed to us how network executives lied to her in order for her to sign on for Home Improvement, hosting the Emmys with Ellen DeGeneres (“the worst day of her life”), and whether or not she turned down a role on The West Wing (C.J.? Abbey?) before recurring as Sheila Brooks. The juice is good in this one, hunnies.

Dr. Yolandra Hancock, board-certified pediatrician and obesity medicine specialist, joins us to discuss Biden's new plan to battle the Omicron variant as it sweeps the nation and has people on their toes as we officially enter the winter season. We talk about the plan to distribute 500 million tests by next month and whether this timeline will be sufficient to make a dent in the spread of the virus. We also talk about how workers are not being financially protected by temporary closures of businesses during this spike after emergency assistance was discontinued a few months ago, and how this may lead to people taking more risks to ensure their financial needs, further worsening the spread. Dr. Caroline Light, is a professor and researcher at Harvard University specializing in gender, critical race and ethnic studies, and author of "Stand Your Ground: A History of America's Love Affair with Lethal Self Defense.” Michael Harriot is a senior writer at TheRoot.com, where he covers the intersection of race, politics, and culture. They both join us to talk about the case of DJ Broadus, who was killed by Gardner Fraser in Florida in February 2018 after being shot four times at close range, twice after he had fallen to the ground, and how Fraser was not charged with homicide due to “stand your ground” laws in place in that state. We talk about the evolution of these laws, the intersection of class and race in these cases, and what could be done to change them.Ray Baker, political analyst and professor at Towson University, and Nookie Bishop, host of the Digital Gumbo Podcast, join hosts Michelle Witte and Bob Schlehuber to talk about the legal maneuvers the Washington, DC Metropolitan Police Department is engaged in to keep its officers of their force who have been charged with misconduct, DUIs, domestic abuse, and indecent exposure.

Dr. Gene Olinger, Professor at Boston University, and principal science advisor for MRI Global Inc., joins us to talk about the ongoing debate over boosters and lockdowns.

Ray Baker, political analyst and host of the podcast Public Agenda, joins us to talk about what was and was not said yesterday during the inaugural festivities, the insanity of US foreign policy and double standards regarding this thing called Democracy.Dr. Yolandra Hancock, board-certified pediatrician and obesity medicine specialist, joins us for our Trends With Benefits segment where we take a look at the latest trends and tell you whether or not they are your friend or your future enemy. This week we take a look at COVID trends and let you know which they are heading!

UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres reflected the sentiment of many world leaders as his spokesman said he was "saddened" by the events at the US Capitol.Bob Schlehuber, host of Sputnik's Political Misfits; and Ted Rall, political cartoonist and syndicated columnist, joins us to talk about the stunning violence as protesters stormed the US Capitol on Wednesday. Hundreds of protesters rushed past Capitol police and wandered through the halls of Congress, calling for a revolution and confronting authorities. Analysts question whether this was a one-off event or the beginning of a long-term cycle of violence. Gary Flowers, radio talk show host and public policy analyst; and Ray Baker, political analyst and host of the podcast Public Agenda, join us to discuss the outcome of the Georgia Senate races. In a stunning turn of events, the Democrats swept both Senate seats and are poised to control the upper chamber. President-elect Joe Biden seems set to take office with his party in control of both houses of Congress. What will this mean for his domestic and foreign policy agendas?Dan Lazare, investigative journalist and author of "The Velvet Coup," joins us to discuss the outcome of Julian Assange's bail hearing in the UK. In a reversal of fortune, Judge Vanessa Baraitser denied bail for the WikiLeaks co-founder on Wednesday, arguing that he posed a flight risk. Assange will be held in jail indefinitely pending the outcome of the US Department of Justice's appeals to the extradition denial. Additionally, Lazare discusses the odds that Baraitser's extradition denial will be overturned.Dr. Linwood Tauheed, associate professor of economics at the University of Missouri-Kansas City, joins us to discuss the possibility of a new approach to economic stimulus under a Biden administration. Democratic control of both houses of Congress creates a scenario in which bold economic moves can be made. However, Biden's record of neoliberal conservatism indicates that such a strategy is unlikely. Also, the small- and medium-sized business sectors are pending collapse, and a considerable capital inflow is necessary to keep them afloat. Will a Biden administration wake up the economy or sit idly by while it turns to ashes?Dan Kovalik, labor and human rights lawyer, professor and author, joins us to discuss his book "The Plot to Scapegoat Russia." Kovalik argues that the CIA and the deep state have conspired to scapegoat Russia for US political and economic failings and that vilifying Russian President Vladimir Putin is a foundational part of their strategy.Teri Mattson, Latin America coordinator for Code Pink, joins us to discuss the political future of Juan Guaido. The EU has announced that it no longer recognizes Guaido as the interim president of Venezuela following the swearing-in of the new parliament. The US-backed opposition is struggling for legitimacy, as Venezuelans have executed an effective democratic election with over 100 political parties participating. KJ Noh, peace activist, writer and teacher, joins us to discuss China. Antony Blinken, Biden's nominee for secretary of state, is signaling that the incoming administration is planning to confront China over the issue of the US-funded "pro-democracy" movement in Hong Kong. China argues that the US has no business meddling in its internal affairs. Caleb Maupin, journalist and political analyst, joins us to talk about international cooperation regarding the coronavirus pandemic. Venezuela is having difficulty paying for vaccines, as the US and its allies are refusing to unfreeze funds needed to cover the costs. Additionally, human rights organizations are demanding that the US cease and desist from activities that are inhibiting Iran from addressing its coronavirus outbreak.

Like him or not, Trump's social media tirades have taught us a lot and begged us to ask how far censorship should go?Jim Kavanaugh, who publishes at thepolemicist.net and Counterpunch, joins us to discuss the social media response to the protest Wednesday, Trump’s statements and the mob that ended up breaking into the US Capitol. Their response has both political implications and potentially far-reaching consequences. Both Facebook and Twitter suspended President Donald Trump from posting to their platforms Wednesday, after the Capitol was breached. Twitter was first to shut Trump down for 12 hours, Facebook and Instagram followed later, but now Facebook is saying Trump’s accounts will be locked at least until Inauguration Day and perhaps longer. YouTube took down a video of Trump’s on Wednesday praising the mob and continuing to say the election was rigged - he’s been shut out from social media.Dr. Linwood Tauheed, President of the National Economic Association, joins us to discuss Joe Biden’s picks for Labor Secretary and Commerce Secretary. What should we think about his choices?Ray Baker, political analyst and host of the podcast Public Agenda to talk about the latest fallout from Donald Trump’s inspired attack on the Congress. We'll also discuss policing, terrorism and impeaching Trump.

David Schultz, Distinguished University Professor of Political Science and Legal Studies at Hamline University and author of "Presidential Swing States: Why Only Ten Matter,” joins us to discuss declining college enrollment, declining aid applications and what they mean for education, income and the future workforce, as well as for the concept of a politically educated and engaged population.Bill Honigman, California state coordinator for Progressive Democrats of America and co-coordinator of its Healthcare Human Rights Issue Organizing Team, joins us to discuss a provision in the relief bill Congress passed earlier this week that would put an end to some surprise medical bills in this country. Chris Smalls, former Amazon employee and founder of The Congress of Essential Workers, joins us to discuss Amazon's impact on warehouses, transit wages and US President-elect Joe Biden's infrastructure plan.Ray Baker, political analyst and host of the podcast Public Agenda, joins us to discuss the three-sided showdown between US President Donald Trump, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) and House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA). Either it’s Trump outflanking Democrats from the left on stimulus checks, or it’s Trump forcing a battle with McConnell for the soul of the GOP, or it’s Trump just shooting Republicans in the gut on his way out of the White House. Trump could be ensuring a Democratic loss in Georgia's Senate runoff elections or handing them the win. Will he be the hero, or will it be someone like Sen. Amy Klobuchar (D-MN), who called Trump’s holding up the recent stimulus bill to demand larger checks for citizens “an attack on every American” and an attempt by Trump to “burn this country down.” What is really going on?Nate Wallace, creator and co-host of the podcast Redspin Sports, joins us to discuss everything we ought to know about paying college athletes, protesting at the Olympics and elsewhere, and the impact of youth sports!

Caleb Maupin, journalist and political analyst, joins us to discuss Iran's decision to be open to talks with the incoming Biden administration, even after veteran physicist Moshen Fakhrizadeh, a major player in Iran's nuclear research and defense activities, was assassinated in an ambush outside of Tehran on November 27. "Underscoring the support for diplomacy, Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif said while 'Iran and the US will continue to have fundamental differences,' the tension between Tehran and Washington needn't continue after Trump is out of office," Bloomberg reported this week.Dr. Jack Rasmus, professor of economics and politics at St. Mary's College of California, returns to discuss this week's top economic stories, including the $908 billion stimulus package proposed in the US Senate and slow sales on Black Friday and Cyber Monday. He will also talk about a Washington Post report on the Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) which revealed that more than half of the emergency funds intended for small businesses went to larger businesses instead.Garland Nixon, co-host of The Critical Hour, joins us from Caracas, Venezuela. He will discuss the various measures that the Venezuelan government is using to contain the COVID-19 crisis, as well as sanctions and other news from the region.Ray Baker, political analyst and host of the podcast Public Agenda; and Gary Flowers, radio talk show host and public policy analyst, return to discuss the bipartisan stimulus package talks, who will lead the US Defense Department, and Republicans fearing US President Donald Trump's criticism of Georgia officials over the handling of the presidential elections could cause a rift in the party and hurt their chances in the state's Senate runoff elections. They also discuss the Trump administration is scheduling several executions in the days leading up to the presidential inaugurationJim Kavanagh, writer at The Polemicist and CounterPunch; and Daniel Lazare, investigative journalist and author of "The Velvet Coup," return to tackle the subjects of the proposed bipartisan stimulus package, the search for the next Pentagon chief by US President-elect Joe Biden and a group of House Republicans on Thursday who were accused of pulling an "outrageous" maneuver by Rep. Eric Swalwell (D-CA) and fellow Democratic lawmakers when they attempted to pass a motion to adjourn the chamber while the pandemic rages. Common Dreams reported on the matter: "'People are going hungry and they're treating this like a game,' Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) tweeted in response to the motion, which Republicans used to complain about House rules allowing proxy voting to prevent the spread of COVID-19 on Capitol Hill. 'Leaders don't abandon people in their time of greatest need.'"

Morgan Artyukhina, Sputnik News journalist, joins us to talk about news that’s come out over the past week about the US war machine and the consequences it has for us and the rest of the world. A report by Airwars documents almost every single one of the US coalition’s strikes against ISIS. It’s being called a major transparency breakthrough, and the Pentagon is getting some credit for giving Airwars such specific geographic data about the strikes. But what does this report say about civilian casualties in the war on ISIS? Antone Barnes, founder CEO of Brand Architects and Bryan Weaver, Founder of Hoops Sagrado, joins us to discuss the future of sports in the age of COVID, the NBA draft, and why baseball players continue to use Performance Enhancing Drugs even after testing positive several times.Ray Baker, political analyst and host of the podcast Public Agenda to talk about the latest on Rudy Guiliani’s literal meltdown, some of Joe Biden’s worse picks so far, and the State Department’s new offensive against BDS.

Alon Ben-Meir, former diplomat and professor, joins us to discuss U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo's trips on Wednesday and Thursday to Israeli settlements. These trips marked the first time a U.S. secretary of state had officially visited settlements, a deeply provocative move that previous American administrations went to lengths to avoid.Dr Gigi El Bayoumi, professor of Medicine and founding director of the Rodman Institute at George Washington Hospital, returns to The Critical Hour to discuss a new at-home coronavirus test that was recently approved. The test relies on a nose swab and runs in just 30 minutes. However, it requires a prescription and there has not been an evaluation in asymptomatic people. Will this new technology create a turning point for battling the infection as a second wave overruns the U.S.Ray Baker, political analyst and host of the podcast Public Agenda, joins us to discuss reports that prosecutors are declining to pursue many cases of previously arrested protesters. They concluded the defendants were exercising their fundamental civil rights. As a result, prosecutors will only pursue cases involving more substantial charges like property destruction or other violence. Gary Flowers, radio talk show host and public policy analyst, joins us to discuss a recent demand by Rep. Bill Pascrell, who argues for DOJ Prosecution of President Trump for what he describes as "Innumerable Crimes Against the United States." Pascrell's call seems to be falling on deaf ears as former VP Joe Biden has indicated to advisors that he is not inclined to continue investigations and pursue prosecution should wrongdoing be found.Randi Nord, co-founder of geopoliticsalert.com, joins us to discuss pressure from numerous interest groups that will affect the Biden Administration's ability to return to Iran's nuclear agreement. Many forces are at work to sabotage any future Biden administration attempts to reenter the 2015 Iran nuclear deal, known as the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA). Officials from Israel and Gulf states hostile to Iran are warning Joe Biden against rejoining the JCPOA.Alexander Mercouris, editor in chief at theduran.com & host of "The Duran" on youtube, returns to The Critical Hour to update us on the dispute in the British labour Party over the Suspension and subsequent reinstatement of Jeremy Corbyn. Corbyn was suspended over claims of antisemitism. His reinstatement is causing a furor as he is not allowed to return as a member of the Party. Will the Labour Party return to power or grow weaker over this internal struggle?Scott Ritter, former U.N. weapons inspector in Iraq joins us to discuss a significant alliance forming between the two major world powers of Russia and China. Recent articles from Russian media outlet Tass and Chinese media outlet CGTN indicate that the two nations consider the benefits of joining forces to protect themselves from hegemonic actions in the world. William J Astore, retired lieutenant USAF colonel, who has taught at the Air Force Academy and the Naval Postgraduate School, and now teaches History at the Pennsylvania College of Technology, joins us to discuss his recent articles in consortiumnews.com. He argues that people should not interpret President Trump's troop reduction in Iraq and Afghanistan as ending the conflicts. Also, we discuss his other article in which he examines the bipartisan rejection of ending the endless wars.

Maru Mora-Villalpando, immigrant rights activist and organizer, joins us to take a look back on the past four years of US immigration policy. Have Trump’s actions matched his rhetoric? Has his administration significantly changed American immigration policy, and which of its efforts have been failures? We'll also look at what immigration would look like under Biden and the best ways to keep pressure on a Biden administration. There are a number of Trump administration policies that Biden could reverse if he wins the election. Which would he pick first?Steven Hill, journalist and author of "Raw Deal: How the 'Uber Economy' and Runaway Capitalism Are Screwing American Workers" and "10 Steps to Repair American Democracy," joins us to discuss one of the most important ballot initiatives of the year, Proposition 22 in California. It's the most expensive California ballot measure of the year, and apparently the most expensive in the state's history. It is described by Ballotpedia as a citizens' initiative. Was it really a bunch of concerned citizens who forced this measure onto the ballot, after California last year passed Assembly Bill 5, which was supposed to fix this problem and force gig employers to extend benefits to staff who reasonably fit the category of “employee” rather than “contractor?” How is some of that money being spent?Ray Baker, political analyst and host of the podcast Public Agenda; and Dr. Dave Ragland, co-executive director of the Truth Telling Project and director of the Grassroots Reparations Campaign, join us to discuss the sentiments behind Tuesday's election and the division it's caused. "Voters in Republican-led Arizona and South Dakota and Democrat-led Montana and New Jersey will consider proposals to legalize recreational marijuana," CNN reported Saturday. "Another red state, Mississippi, is weighing a pair of ballot questions to legalize medical marijuana." We are really at a great dividing point in American politics. Are families actually ripping apart in new ways? And if that is the case, did the huge spike in protests and the shock of wokeness through the American populace actually stick? What's really going on across the US?

The Falcons won a game when everyone expected them to lose it in terrible fashion (2:18 - 10:34). Trevor Lawrence got the CoCo (10:34 - 14:10). NFL Week 8 preview and a contender game between the Ravens and the Steelers (14:10 - 45:02). Fantasy Daddy's are back (45:02 - 56:43).

We finish the show with the cant lose parlay and fyre fest of the week.

Push back against Secretary of State Mike Pompeo’s decision to address the Republican National Convention on Tuesday. Democrats say he violated the Hatch Act.Mitchell Plitnick, political analyst, writer and president of ReThinking Foreign Policy, reflects on night two of the RNC, Mike Pompeo on a tour of the Middle East, and reports that Israel in the last days has bombed both Gaza and Lebanon.Jim Goodman, president of the National Family Farm Coalition discusses the reality of our “economy” on a large scale is obscured by some of its traditional indicators in the context of agriculture. We'll discuss agricultural headlines that have been in the news lately - ones about farmers increasingly filing for bankruptcy, coupled with ones about unusually high prices for commodities at the global level and food in our grocery stores. Ray Baker, political analyst and host of the podcast Public Agenda, discusses the third night of protests in Wisconsin following the shooting of Jacob Blake and what to make of the drop in viewers at both major parties conventions this year.

On this edition of The Critical Hour, co-hosts Dr. Wilmer Leon and Garland Nixon talk to Ray Baker about the happenings at the opening night of the Republican National Convention on Monday.Former US Ambassador to the United Nations Nikki Haley told the convention that Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden and his running mate Sen. Kamala Harris' (D-CA) vision for America is socialism, which has failed everywhere it's been applied. She also argued that the UN is "a place where dictators, murderers and thieves denounce America and then put their hands out and demand that we pay their bills." What are we to make of this?The killings of George Floyd, Breonna Taylor and others seemed to have been overtaken in the public consciousness by COVID-19, party conventions, and the resumption of professional sports, but protests have ignited again in the wake of the Sunday incident in which unarmed Black man Jacob Blake was shot multiple times in the back by police in Kenosha, Wisconsin, with his three young children present. On Friday night, police in Lafayette, Louisiana, shot and killed Trayford Pellerin, a 31-year-old Black man, outside a convenience store. Tuesday marks three months since Floyd was killed in Minneapolis, Minnesota. How does this keep happening?"President Donald Trump's reelection campaign announced Sunday that Secretary of State Mike Pompeo will address this week's Republican National Convention," Common Dreams reported Monday. This is raising concerns from a few fronts, the outlet noted, as "it's unprecedented for the nation's top diplomat to participate in this type of political event and because he will reportedly speak from 'an undisclosed location' in Jerusalem while he's there on official travel." How will this play out?"Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro on Sunday thanked ally Iran for helping the South American country overcome US sanctions on its oil industry and floated the idea of purchasing missiles from the country," Reuters reported Monday. How was this decision made?"China's banking and insurance regulator has declared the United States' financial sanctions on Hong Kong organizations and officials accused of eroding the city's autonomy as 'lacking legality,'" the South China Morning Post reported Sunday. Is this condemnation justified?A very interesting op-ed ran recently in Consortium News, entitled "Trump's Choice for Germany," wherein Radio Sputnik's own John Kiriakou writes, "The adage that even a broken clock is right twice a day is true. Donald Trump has made a positively inspired choice to be the next US ambassador to Germany. Col. Douglas Macgregor, US Army, retired, is the president's choice to downsize the US military presence in Germany. Doug Macgregor is the right person to do the job." Why?"On Sunday, President Trump released a 50-point agenda for his second term that says the president will 'stop endless war' and bring US troops 'home,'" Antiwar.com reported Monday. "The plan also pledges that the US will 'maintain' military strength and says the US will 'wipe out' global terrorists that threaten Americans. The Democratic Party released its 2020 platform this month, which uses similar language to President Trump's agenda and calls for ending 'forever wars.'" What are we to make of this?Reporting on Belarus detaining two opposition leaders, Reuters noted Tuesday: "Olga Kovalkova and Siarhei Dyleuski were brought to separate courts where they were each jailed for 10 days. Kovalkova is the main representative still in Belarus of opposition candidate Sviatlana Tsikhanouskaya, and Dyleuski has led strikes at Minsk's flagship tractor factory."Guests:Ray Baker - Political analyst and host of the podcast Public Agenda Dr. Emmit Riley - Political scientist and assistant professor of Africana studies at DePauw UniversityAriel Gold - Co-founder of Code PinkRobert Fantina - Journalist and Palestine activistKJ Noh - Peace activist, writer and teacherDanny Sjursen - Retired US Army major and author of "Patriotic Dissent: America in the Age of Endless War"Margaret Kimberley - Editor and senior columnist at Black Agenda Report and author of "Prejudential: Black America and the Presidents"Mark Sleboda - Moscow-based international relations and security analyst

Is there anything really new in this trade deal, and how will the impact be felt in the three North American nations? The deal is supposed to replace the 1990s-era North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA), but is it more of the same?Ray Baker, political analyst and host of the podcast Public Agenda, tears down the hidden agenda and white privilege in the Trump administration's Tuesday announcement telling states to reopen schools in the fall and threatening to cut federal funding for those that didn't follow suit. Also, Democrats need to gain four seats to take the majority in the Senate in November. Will they be able to do it, and is anyone a sure bet?

"Australian Prime Minister Scott Morrison held a somber press conference on Friday to announce that the Australian Federal Police (AFP) and the Australian Security Intelligence Organisation (ASIO) had conducted a raid on a sitting member of the New South Wales parliament all because, so far, he'd said favorable things about China and had gone on junkets to the country," Joe Lauria wrote in Consortium News on June 26. He joins the program to discuss this incident. "The Supreme Court ruled unanimously Monday that a state may require presidential electors to support the winner of its popular vote and may punish or replace those who don't, settling a disputed issue in advance of this fall's election," the Washington Post reported Monday. Joining us to discuss this issue is Dr. Gerald Horne. "The pandemic map of the United States burned bright red Monday, with the number of new coronavirus infections during the first six days of July nearing 300,000 as more states and cities moved to reimpose shutdown orders," the Washington Post reported Monday. What's going on here? For insight, we turn to Ray Baker.In his latest article for Consortium News, former United Nations weapons inspector Scott Ritter argued that "the story of the alleged 'bounty scheme' grew up in the context of top US brass blaming Russia for America's defeat in Afghanistan," according to the subheadline. Ritter wrote that Afghan security officials said a January 2020 raid on "the offices of several businessmen in the Northern Afghan city of Konduz and the capital city of Kabul" had "nothing to do with 'Russians smuggling money.'” What, then, was the purpose of the raid?Guests:Joe Lauria - Editor-in-chief at Consortium News, political commentator and author of "How I Lost By Hillary Clinton."Dr. Gerald Horne - Historian and award-winning author of more than 30 books who currently holds the Moores Professorship of History and African American Studies at the University of Houston.

Workplaces can actually help those healing from an addiction. But the job site needs to be recovery-informed in order to benefit everyone, says Dr. Ray Baker. This addiction medicine specialist with more than 30 years in the field explains how and why. 

Allt fler väljare är positiva till samhälle byggt på ”kristna värden”, enligt en ny studie. Vad betyder det för församlingen? Samtidigt har det visat sig svårt för olika politiska företrädare att enas om en tydlig definition. SEA:s Jacob Rudenstrand och Dagens Elisabeth Sandlund samtalar om den senaste tidens debatt och om det till och med kan vara en evangelisationsstrategi för församlingen. De diskuterar även påskdagens terrordåd i Sri Lanka mot kyrkor och hotell och varför kristna har blivit ett terrormål under påsken. Det blir även ett samtal med teologen Ray Baker, redaktör för antologin Bekänna färg: Kyrka och hbtq i en regnbågsfärgad värld, om Bibelns syn på samkönade relationer och könsidentitet.

Ray Baker och Olof Edsinger tar sig upp ur skyttegravarna och vill samtala om frågorna som berör oss alla.

On this episode of The Critical Hour, Dr. Wilmer Leon is joined by Ray Baker, political analyst and host of the podcast Public Agenda, to remember the life, legacy and politics of the late Senator John McCain.Arizona Senator John McCain is dead at the age of 81. The late senator will lie in state at the Arizona Capitol in Phoenix and later in the US Capitol Rotunda in Washington, DC. McCain died Saturday at age 81 following a battle with aggressive brain cancer. If you've turned on your TV since his passing, it's on every news channel: John McCain the Maverick, John McCain the War Hero, John McCain international spokesmen for democracy. Well, that's not quite the Senator McCain that I followed. As I have listened to the news since Sunday, this really appears to be what I call the protectors of the narrative (corporate media) going into high gear to manage the image of John McCain, thereby validating the atrocities he backed and championed.At least 28 people were shot in Chicago over the weekend, two of them fatally. The most violent period was Friday night, when two were killed and eight others wounded between 5 p.m. and midnight. Shootings on Saturday wounded five people; nine were wounded Sunday; and four were wounded early Monday before 5 a.m. One shooting Friday left a woman dead in the back of the Yards neighborhood on the South Side. There are those who talk about the poor relationship between the community and the police and place the blame on the community. The Grassroots Alliance for Police Accountability has outlined an ordinance that would give a civilian oversight board a lot of power over the police department. A seven-member civilian board would oversee Chicago's police department. They would have the authority to fire the police superintendent and set department policy, which would be a dramatic change for the city. What is going on in our community?Whitney Webb from MintPress News has a very disturbing story on the site - "US Sanctions Against Venezuela Force Abby Martin's 'Empire Files' to Shut Down." The US government is not only seeking to punish the Venezuelan government with its increasingly draconian sanctions but is seeking as well to cripple the TeleSur media network, despite the fact that it is funded by several other countries. What's actually going on here? What does this say about the power of independent journalism, and what does it say about a free press and censorship in America? GUESTS:Ray Baker - Political analyst and host of the podcast Public Agenda.Dr. Ameena Matthews - Senior Violence Interrupter whose job is to mediate conflict on the front end to stop the transmission of violence from one person to another. She has worked for six years with the Chicago Project for Violence Prevention's Ceasefire Program in the University of Illinois at Chicago's School of Public Health. Abby Martin - Journalist and host of The Empire Files, a weekly investigative news program on TeleSur.

In today's episode, I'll be speaking with Dr. Ray Baker, an expert in the field of Addiction Medicine. Recently, Dr. Baker served on a national expert committee for the Canadian Centre of Substance Abuse, where he helped design and analyze Canada's National Life in Recovery Survey. Dr. Baker was the opening speaker at the "Widening The Gateway" conference in Tacoma, Washington. And he will be speaking at the International Conference of Secular AA to be held from August 24th through August 26th in Toronto, Ontario. Without further ado, my conversation with Dr. Ray Baker.

Är det helvetet som gäller för den som inte källsorterar? Är det ok att dansa nu även om man är en god kristen? Synd är ett av de mest använda begreppen från den kristna idévärlden.

I vår kultur kan vi ofta möta invändningar mot kristen tro som kan handla om att det det är inte är särskilt klokt att tro på Gud. Ray Baker bemöter dessa påståenden med hjälp av hur bland annat C.S Lewis resonerade och visar att det visst är förståndigt att både tro på och älska Gud.

Tänk om du skulle skriva ner viktiga saker som du vill förmedla till din son/dotter i ett brev. Ray Baker tänkte inte bara tanken, under många år skrev har varje år ett brev till sin son och vid studenten blev det till och med en bok. I samtalet får den yngre pappan lyssna till den lite äldre. Ray har inte bara lärt sig av att vara förälder utan också genom att vägleda unga vuxna som passerat CredoAkademin under alla år.

I dagens avsnitt får vi besök av Ray Baker som råkar ha doktorerat om helvetet. Vi passar på att fråga vad som egentligen händer efter man dör, vad helvetet egentligen är och om ett vanligt missförstånd gällande himlen. Självklart pratar vi också om vad det här med himlen och helvetet, och vilken syn man har på det, har för inverkan på vårt personliga kristna liv. --- Teofiluspodden är en podcast där vi pratar om massor med olika frågor och ämnen, allt utifrån ett kristet perspektiv. Vi som håller i den är inga experter eller auktoriteter på något sätt, utan bara två killar som tycker det är roligt att samtala och fundera kring olika ämnen. Teofiluspodden blir ett sätt för oss att bjuda in andra i våra samtal och kanske få våra lyssnare att börja fundera själva.
