In this episode of The Better Samaritan Podcast, we're joined by Allison Ruark, global public health professor and HIV/AIDS researcher, to talk about how global health, gender inequality, and foreign aid cuts all collide in real life. We dig into what's really going on behind the data, how U.S. policy changes are closing clinics across Africa, and why spiritual resilience matters just as much as medical care. Allison offers both documented areas of concern and areas of hope—thanks to the next generation of passionate students stepping up. Dive deeper into the discussion: (5:04) Clarification - Dr. Ruark post-show clarified that, as of the recording of this episode, 80% of USAID/US grants have been cancelled, and 20% of grants are still operational.

Rain Gauge Rally 2025 continues with the National Weather Service asking the general public to engage as rainfall reporters and weather observers. Ben Jarboe finds out more about the staff behind the forecast by talking to Sarah Marquardt, Senior Service Hydrologist / Meteorologist in the NWS office in Sullivan.

It's the first time the county has hosted this event according to Carol Roth, chair of the county host committee. She tells Stephanie Hoff that they had to commit not only to a great program - but also to substantial fund raising to act as host. E-15 looks closer than ever for year round use according to Patrick Seyer, vice president of the Missouri Corn Growers Association. He says one of the reasons it's looking better is because oil companies are embracing the current approach to offering the fuel year-round. Tonight anyone interested in the future of Wisconsin dairy is welcome at a public forum in Baraboo. Matt Ruark is the faculty director for the Dairy Innovation Hub. This program is funded to the tune of $7.2 million annually by the state of Wisconsin to encourage collaboration between UW-Madison, UW-River Falls and UW-Platteville in developing research that will propel Wisconsin dairy for the next generation.

This little Irish love song has quite a back story. To trace its origins, we have to travel back in time to a very subversive harp festival, dig into the Irish harper tradition and follow the fortunes of some proper characters.

David and Tamler share a few brief thoughts on the election and then raise some questions about Tucker Carlson being attacked by a demon as he slept in the woods with his wife and four dogs (still don't believe in ghosts, people?). In the main segment we talk about one of the most popular measures in social psychology – the cognitive reflection test (CRT). Originally designed to identify differences in people's ability to employ reflection (system 2) to override their initial intuition (system 1), this three-item measure has mushroomed into its own industry with researchers linking CRT scores to job performance, religious belief, conspiracy theorizing and more. But what psychological attribute is this test supposed to measure exactly, and how can we determine its validity? And has the dual process system 1/system 2 framework outlived its usefulness?  Tucker Carlson was totally mauled by a demon and not scratched by his dogs [youtube.com] Frederick, S. (2005).

Guest Eric Ruark, Numbers USA, joins to discuss the record of Biden's "immigration czar". Discussion of illegal migration numbers, policy failures, and how we get the border under control.  Olympics kick off with...a very controversial opening ceremony. Why? Discussion of why we see subliminal messaging through performances during major events. Are they trying to tell us something...or just trying to intertidally upset people?

Mike Ferguson in the Morning 06-05-24 Eric Ruark, Director of Research for NumbersUSA, talks about Biden's Executive Order on Tuesday regarding border security and immigration. From NumbersUSA: On day one of his presidency, President Biden began the current border crisis by dismantling effective border policies and enforcement measures then in place. Now after three years of a sustained surge, entry of up to 10 million inadmissible aliens, and the Senate twice refusing to vote on bad legislation that codifies crisis levels of illegal entry, President Biden has proclaimed an executive order that overrides the good sense of both chambers of Congress by normalizing high levels of illegal entry, encouraging unaccompanied children to enter, and, in addition to blanket waivers, allowing any alien who uses the CBP One app to be excluded from its restrictions.

The potato industry is supporting a new grant that aims to bolster potato research at UW-Madison. The Wisconsin Potato and Vegetable Growers Association gave funds to Extension Specialist and Soil Science Professor Matt Ruark, making him the first-ever BCS Chair. BCS is an acronym that honors past researchers at the university: Larry Binning, David Curwen and John Schoenemann. Ruark will get $85,000 per year over the next five years to support potato research. His plans for those dollars will amp up research across the state that looks to make growing potatoes more economically and environmentally viable.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

How can trip leaders follow up well after a short-term missions trip? Is follow-up really that important? What questions should we ask those who have just returned home from a trip? Listen in today as host Dave Jacob talks with Professor Jenny Collins (Taylor University) and Tory Ruark (Mission Works). With years of short-term missions experience leading trips, our guests will help answer the question: Do short-term mission trips really help lead participants to long-term service? Here are some other questions the three discussed:   1. Why is proper follow-up from a short-term trip important? 2. What difficulties do short-termers typically experience during the reentry process? 3. Let's talk about some of the follow-up topics. What should a team leader discuss while debriefing the trip? 4. How long should a team debrief after the trip? 5. What are some of the disadvantages to no follow-up or very little follow-up? 6. What tools or resources are available to assist agencies and team leaders in following up well?
