The International Date Line (IDL) is one of the weirdest things on the map—it's not a straight line at all! It zigzags to avoid splitting countries, islands, and even some communities into different days, which would be super confusing. Imagine one side of your house being a day ahead of the other! It mostly follows the 180° longitude line but takes big detours around places like Kiribati and Samoa so they can stay on the same date as their neighbors. This bending of the line makes it look strange, but it helps people in those areas keep their calendars in sync. Without the IDL, figuring out the time and date for travel, shipping, and even calling someone would be a chaotic mess. #brightside Animation is created by Bright Side. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Music from TheSoul Sound: https://thesoul-sound.com/ Check our Bright Side podcast on Spotify and leave a positive review! https://open.spotify.com/show/0hUkPxD...

Los humanos llevamos toda la vida grabándonos la piel con tinta. Desde los rituales de paso en Samoa hasta los tatuajes punitivos de criminales, desde los marineros del Capitán Cook que trajeron el arte tahitiano a Europa hasta la contracultura de los sesenta, el tatuaje ha sido espejo de cada época. Una práctica que ha oscilado entre la sacralidad y el estigma, entre la identidad grupal y la expresión individual. En este episodio exploramos cómo el tatuaje nos habla de imperialismo, clase social, marginalidad y rebeldía, y cómo en nuestro mundo líquido actual se ha convertido en una forma de recuperar la agencia sobre nuestros cuerpos y nuestro futuro incierto. Hoy, en "No es el fin del mundo", hablamos de la geopolítica del tatuaje con Pablo Cerezo, autor del libro "El cuerpo enunciado" (Siglo XXI ediciones).

We have done it! We have reached the end of the nineteenth century with the beginning of the Spanish-American War. In the first of a string of episodes, we will be exploring the country's first overseas venture - war with Spain over its island possessions in the Caribbean and the Pacific. In the aftermath of the Civil War, the United States was already thinking beyond its continental borders. With the purchase of Alaska and new found influence in Samoa and the Hawaiian Islands, the United States was already considering what was next. With Spain's influence on a steep decline, there were an insurrection in Cuba which captured the attention of public opinion and those magnates who had invested heavily in the Cuban sugar industry. Uncertain whether to negotiate of go to war, Presidents Cleveland and McKinley proceeded carefully until events dictated their actions. Have a question, comment, concern, or compliment?

In this week’s episode of Political Contessa, Jennifer welcomes Scott Brown, esteemed former U.S. Senator from Massachusetts, former U.S. Ambassador to New Zealand and Samoa, and a longtime public servant at both the state and national levels. Scott is recognized for his historic win of the Massachusetts Senate seat in 2010—turning a seat long held by Democrats—and for his dynamic political career, which spans local, state, and international service. He is also a decorated military veteran, dedicated musician, and proud husband, father, and grandfather. Scott has recently announced his candidacy for the United States Senate in New Hampshire, where he was born, bringing his extensive experience and bipartisan approach to the forefront in a pivotal election. This episode dives into today’s most pressing political debates, from border security and sanctuary cities to the fairness of women’s sports and government spending. Jennifer and Scott pull no punches as they examine the impact of progressive policies on law enforcement, illegal immigration, and the economic freedoms that define the so-called “New Hampshire advantage.” Scott provides candid criticism of his opponent’s stances on open borders and men competing in women’s sports and outlines concrete conservative solutions—from ending the tax on tips to expanding child tax credits. The conversation also confronts the polarization of Congress, the rise of political extremism on the left, and the dire need for fiscal reform to secure America’s financial future. This episode is packed with controversial viewpoints, clear calls to action, and Scott’s insight on the challenges and responsibilities of seeking public office in turbulent times “It takes people like me and your listeners to really get involved at this local school committee, selectmen, and do it.” ~Scott Brown Today on Political Contessa: Scott Brown is running for U.S. Senate in New Hampshire, emphasizing his extensive experience, from serving as a local selectman to Senator and Ambassador. Criticism of Democratic stances on open borders, sanctuary cities, and support for illegal immigrants over law enforcement. Strong disapproval of biological men competing in women’s sports and its impact on Title IX and female athletes. Advocacy for no tax on tips, child tax credits, and government incentives for American families and workers. Emphasis on the need for work requirements and accountability within welfare and SNAP programs. Call for fiscal conservatism, reducing government waste, and tackling the national debt through energy independence and responsible spending. An assertion that Republicans are now the party of working people and compassion, contrasted with what Brown sees as Democratic elitism and extremism. Encouragement for listeners to get personally involved, volunteer, or donate to the campaign as an act of civic engagement.

Conspiracy theories might be having a moment, but they're as old as civilization itself. In 64 AD, for example, the Great Fire of Rome sparked competing theories over who started the fire and why. And just like many of today's conspiracy theories, it resulted in suffering and innocent deaths — Emperor Nero accused Christians of lighting the fire, which led to many being crucified or burned alive.Conspiracy theories often arise in times of social crisis. When humans are feeling afraid, like the world is out of control, we turn to simple explanations that help us make sense of things. So it's no surprise that such theories are on the rise in this moment of turmoil and political chaos.It doesn't help that many members of the Trump Administration are actively encouraging disinformation. Robert F. Kennedy Jr., in particular, has embraced lies about vaccines, chem-trails, and AIDS (just to name a few). In 2019, he traveled to the island of Samoa to sew distrust of vaccines… and shortly after, a measles outbreak killed nearly 100 people. Now, only 6 years later, he's the US Secretary of Health and Human Services.If someone you know is in the grip of a conspiracy theory, whether it's as high-stakes as vaccinations or as random as believing the Earth is flat, it's tempting to think we can argue them out of it. But unfortunately, fact-checking isn't an effective way to refute disinformation. Arguing makes people double down on their beliefs; even just repeating the lie further embeds it in their mind. Instead, it's better to ask questions that might lead to them questioning the conspiracy theory — maybe today, or maybe a year from now. Like democracy, this is a long-term project that'll only work if we lean in to compassion and community.This isn't to say that we should always take everything at face value, especially when leaders as high as RFK Jr. are spreading disinformation. But science and facts are out there, even amidst the wild internet rabbit holes it's increasingly easy to fall into. If we hold onto our values, pay attention to experts, value evidence, and treat each other with respect, we can all make it through this moment of turmoil… together.For a transcript of this episode, please email comms@redwine.blue.

Elon Musk's embrace of President Trump and his campaign marked a pivotal moment in the 2024 presidential election, ultimately leading to Musk's appointment as the head of the newly established Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE). Tasked with cutting federal spending and shrinking the national debt, DOGE moved fast and forcefully, triggering lawsuits and clashing with veteran officials. Featured in FOX Nation's new documentary "DOGE vs. DC," the American Enterprise Institute's Director of Domestic Policy Studies Matthew Continetti joins the Rundown to explore DOGE's impact and future without Musk at the helm. Former Massachusetts Senator Scott Brown (R) has announced he is running for Senate in his home state of New Hampshire. He spent 11 years in Massachusetts before moving back to the Granite State to run for office in 2014.

Hear about travel to the island nation of Samoa as the Amateur Traveler talks to Jonty Crane from Jonty Travels about his recent trip biking around the country. Why should you go to Samoa? Jonty says, "Samoa is a small island in the Pacific. If you imagine a tropical Pacific paradise, then something like Samoa would probably spring to mind in terms of palm trees along a beautiful sandy beach with snorkeling opportunities and some diving opportunities. The Samoan culture is very interesting. It is very much the heart of Polynesia, and they've done a very good job at maintaining their culture. It's touristy enough that it's got the infrastructure that you need as a tourist to get around and do things. But it's not particularly touristy." Jonty recommends a one-week itinerary for Samoa that allows travelers to experience much of what the country has to offer, but he notes that a 10- to 14-day trip would be ideal to allow for rest, deeper exploration, and a more relaxed pace. Here's how he breaks it down: Begin your trip in Apia, the capital and only real city in Samoa. Jonty suggests spending at least a day, preferably two, exploring both the downtown and the surrounding hills. In central Apia, highlights include: Start with Apia (1–2 days) ... https://amateurtraveler.com/travel-to-samoa/ Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
