In This Episode AI can produce impressive results, but responsibility for those results still belongs to people. In this episode, Adi Klevit interviews Ovetta Sampson about responsible AI implementation and the increasingly important role of human judgment. Ovetta explains the distinction between traditional machine learning and generative AI. With generative AI, determining whether an output is appropriate or useful often requires subjective human judgment, making it critical for businesses to establish clear standards around how these tools are used. Ovetta and Adi also discuss some of the risks that come with widespread AI adoption, including copyright concerns, privacy, unreliable information, and the possibility of inaccurate information being repeated until it is perceived as true. Generative AI can produce an answer that sounds authoritative without actually determining whether that answer is accurate. That makes human review, verification, and critical thinking essential parts of any process that incorporates AI. The conversation then turns to how businesses can use AI more effectively. Ovetta emphasizes a deceptively simple principle: remember that you're working with a machine. Once businesses understand how the technology processes information, they can create better systems for interacting with it by providing clear context, objectives, scope, guardrails, and examples. Rather than allowing everyone to experiment independently, companies can create repeatable processes for using AI while keeping people accountable for the final result.  

She is a realtor. Seven years with Keller Williams in South Jersey. A woman who grew up watching her father buy investment properties in West Philadelphia. Someone who has seen both sides of the landlord and tenant relationship firsthand.And right now she is renting.LaTonya Sampson does not hide from that. She talks about it openly. And it makes what she says about homeownership even more powerful because she is not just selling the dream. She is living the process herself, and she knows exactly what it takes to get back on the other side.On this episode of Troy Talks Money LaTonya and Troy go deep on what most people get wrong about buying a home right now. She breaks down why the interest rate conversation is the wrong conversation to be having. She explains house hacking and why a duplex at the same price as a single-family home could cut your housing cost down to seven or eight hundred dollars a month. She talks about why other cultures have been doing multi-generational living for generations and why Black families are being forced back to something that was always the smarter move. She shares what the Real Buying Remax means for the industry. And she walks through how to turn a spare room, a garage apartment, or a group home into income without ever leaving your house.She also said something at the end of our conversation that I want every person listening to write down.Do not give up on the American dream. Buy some dirt. Even some dirt. It does not even have to have a house on it.This conversation is for first-time buyers, current homeowners, people who think the market is too expensive to get into, and anyone who has ever wondered whether homeownership still makes sense in 2025.Connect with LaTonya Sampson:Instagram and Facebook: Homes by LaTonyaTikTok: Realtors Need Love TooTroy Holt is a Certified Financial Education Instructor, Navy veteran, and debt elimination specialist.

Season 40: America's 250th Anniversary -- 50 states, 25 double-feature episodes. Two fires burned in 1898America. One in South Carolina, where a mob murdered a Black postmaster and his two-year-old daughter. Onein Indian Territory, where a mob burned two Seminole teenagers alive. Both cases reached federal court. Neitherdelivered justice.Frazier Baker held a federal appointment. Lincoln McGeisey and Palmer Sampson were teenagers with noconnection to the crime they died for. The federal government proved it could indict in both cases. What it couldnot do -- or chose not to do -- was convict. This is the story of 1898, when America showed exactly what it waswilling to tolerate.The VictimsFrazier Baker was born around 1857 in Effingham, Florence County, South Carolina. He became a schoolteacher,then a postmaster. On July 30, 1897, the McKinley administration appointed him the first Black postmaster ofLake City, Williamsburg County. He and his wife Lavinia had six children: Rosa, Cora, Lincoln, Sarah, Millie, and theyoungest, Julia, who was two years old in the winter of 1898. Baker refused to abandon his federal post despitethreats, a shooting, an arson, and a boycott. He stayed.Lincoln McGeisey was fifteen or sixteen years old. His father, Thomas McGeisey, was the superintendent of theSeminole Nation's public schools and was in Washington, D.C., negotiating on behalf of his people when the mobtook his son. Lincoln had four siblings -- Martha, Nora, William, and James -- and had never been in trouble. PalmerSampson was also a teenager, the son of Sukey Natuksie and Sampson Walker. Congress formally exoneratedboth young men within six months of their deaths, declaring them innocent before a single defendant stood trial.The CrimesOn February 22, 1898, at approximately 1:00 in the morning, a mob surrounded Frazier Baker's home in Lake City,South Carolina -- which also served as the post office. They set fire to the building and fired approximately onehundred bullets into the structure while the Baker family was inside. Frazier Baker was killed. Two-year-old JuliaBaker died from a bullet that passed through her mother Lavinia's forearm. Three more Baker children survivedwith gunshot wounds.On January 8, 1898, shortly after 2:00 in the morning, Lincoln McGeisey and Palmer Sampson were chained totrees at the Maud tabernacle in Indian Territory. A minister named Andrew J. Mathis prayed over them, then setfire to the dry brush heaped around them. A crowd numbering in the hundreds watched. Three white Protestantministers were documented as present. Neither teenager had been formally charged, brought before any legalauthority, or connected by evidence to the murder of Mary Leard, the crime the mob claimed to be avenging.The InvestigationIn March 1898, journalist and anti-lynching activist Ida B. Wells-Barnett organized a delegation to the WhiteHouse, meeting President McKinley. She was the sole woman in a group that included eight Illinois congressmen.She demanded federal action and a federal anti-lynching law.In the Baker case, thirteen men were indicted on twenty-four criminal counts in April 1899. Joseph P. Newhamtestified under immunity, admitting in open court that he personally started the fire. An all-white jury inCharleston, South Carolina, acquitted three defendants outright and deadlocked on the remaining eight. Thejudge declared a mistrial. No one was ever convicted for the murder of Frazier Baker or Julia Baker.In the Seminole burning case, more than fifty people were indicted. Fifty-four were tried. The prosecutionsucceeded in convicting six individuals, including Nelson M. Jones, a former Deputy U.S. Marshal whose federalstatus made the prosecution legally viable, and Andrew J. Mathis, the minister who set the fire. It was the firstsuccessful prosecution of lynchers in the American Southwest. When convicted mob member Mont Ballardreturned to Maud after serving seven years, the town threw him a celebration.Historical Context1898 was a year of organized racial terror across America. The Wilmington Massacre rewrote the political mapof North Carolina. The Curtis Act dissolved Seminole tribal government. Federal prosecutors proved the systemcould work -- and then the system refused to deliver results. The United States did not pass a federal anti-lynchinglaw until March 29, 2022, when the Emmett Till Antilynching Act was signed into law -- one hundred andtwenty-four years after Frazier Baker and Julia Baker were killed. Ida B. Wells-Barnett demanded that law in 1898.She died in 1931 without seeing it. Lavinia Baker moved her family to Boston, later returned to South Carolina,and died in 1947. The Lake City post office was renamed in honor of Frazier B. Baker on February 22, 2019. Thereis no major public memorial to Lincoln McGeisey or Palmer Sampson.Our Sponsors:* Check out Kensington Publishing: https://www.kensingtonbooks.comAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Send us Fan MailAs a TV beat reporter with an eye on the ratings, I never could understand why the Global television network walked away from their top-rated Canadian original hit Private Eyes in 2021. This breezy, stylish detective series, reminiscent of past romantic hits such as Hart to Hart, was vaulting well over the million mark in viewers. Fans couldn't get enough of stars Jason Priestley and Cindy Sampson's snappy repartee.Well, now it is five years later and, backed by producers Shawn Piller and Lloyd Segan, detectives  Shade and Everett are back in Private Eyes: West Coast. Besides a change of scenery, the move to Victoria, British Columbia, has opened up a whole new casting pool of guest star talent. It was great catching up with Priestley and Sampson and it was soon clear that rebooting this series was just like stepping back into a comfortable pair of gum shoes. The series premieres Sept. 30 on Global and StackTV and in the US on Oct. 5 on TheCW.

I'm answering your comments on Kendrick Sampson choosing freedom over romance, and you did not agree. When Kendrick Sampson (the actor you know from Insecure and How to Get Away with Murder, and the activist behind BLD PWR) sat down with me and said he cares about freedom more than romance, I had a feeling some of you would feel seen and some of you would feel personally called out, and the comments landed right down the middle. [One side heard someone finally say out loud that romantic love is only one kind of love worth building a life around, while the other side heard something that felt like permission to never fully choose anyone. CONFIRM against actual comments.] In this first episode of If It Don't Apply, Let It Fly, I'm reading the comments that split you and responding to them honestly, [including the ones that shifted how I think about the conversation and the ones I'm holding my ground on. CONFIRM against what Shan actually says]. If you walked away from Kendrick's episode feeling defensive, inspired, or stuck somewhere uncomfortable in between, this is for you, because the disagreement is where the real conversation was happening.

In this episode of Boots on the Ground, Boots travels to Sampson, KS, to meet with cousins Cristobal and Steven Tate. Sampson has a water problem- in that the water tower has gone missing! Cristobal lost it on his watch, meanwhile Steven's official investigation has hit many a wall. Could it be that Christopher Nolan could help find answers? Or maybe it's one really long magic trick. Can dog names even really be racist? We answer nearly all of those questions!

Kendrick Sampson (founder of the racial justice nonprofit BLD PWR, actor best known as Nathan in Insecure and Quincy Jones in Michael Jackson's biopic) sits down with Shan to talk about loving widely. Kendrick grew up in a house where nobody said "I love you" after his parents divorced, so love turned into something you did instead of something you said. Love is choosing someone else's needs over your own wants. It's why he has no plan for a romantic relationship, why he separates sex, pleasure, and love into three completely different things, and why he'll tell you flat out that romantic love is actually the smallest, most narrow kind there is. His 25 nieces and nephews come first. If he ever has kids, he wants to raise them with a homegirl, no romance required, because the village already exists. This is a conversation about what happens when you stop assuming a partner is the endpoint, and start asking who you're actually accountable to. —-------  Showing some love to the sponsor of this episode Hollyood Ending.

Send us Fan MailA printer that behaves like a production cell, not a flatbed. Frazer Chesterman sits down with Clayton Sampson, CEO of Cyan Tec, to unpack Robojet: a standard six axis robotic inkjet printer built for direct to shape printing on real industrial parts, not just flat materials.We talk through what Robojet is doing at Printing United for its first US showing, and why printing onto curved, awkward and high mix products is the point. You'll hear practical examples from the demo line, including hard hats, corrugated plastic parts, and even guitar bodies to prove the robot can follow complex edges. Clayton explains what makes the platform feel like a one stop mini factory: load station, optional plasma or other pre treatment, CMYK modules with white ink, then high power UV LED curing and an unload station ready for stock, shipping, assembly, or wear.We also dig into what matters beyond the spectacle: late stage differentiation for promo and sports branding, fast changeovers aided by offline programming and a digital twin, and the option to expand handling with jigs, a universal gripper, or a tool changer. On the industrial side, we look at applications that replace spray coating steps, cutting masking and overspray and, in some cases, reducing fluid use and VOC emissions dramatically. Clayton shares footprint and ROI realities, plus how partnerships with ABB, Siemens, and industrial printhead suppliers support deployment worldwide, with US distribution in place.If you're tracking industrial inkjet, robotics, automation, and sustainable manufacturing, this conversation is a clear snapshot of where direct to object printing is heading.

18114 NAPOLEANLiterary Legacy Of Novelist George SandFiona Sampson, author of Becoming George, Part Two: Sampson discusses French author George Sand (Aurore Dupin), examining her distinct appearance, unconventional attire, and public identity in 19th-century Paris. Sand broke social taboos through her independent lifestyle, extramarital affairs, and progressive writings on women, ecology, and working-class lives. Sampson outlines Sand's complex personal relationships, including her tense dynamic with her daughter Solange, her supportive role for her son Maurice, and her nine-year relationship with composer Frédéric Chopin, whose artistic output she enabled. Additionally, Sampson highlights Sand's deep literary friendship and correspondence with Gustave Flaubert and her enduring influence on modern literature. (6)

CAPTION  JANUARY 1960CONTENTS OF THE JOHN BATCHELOR SHOW,  9-11-2026Global Currents: From Mission History to Interstellar VisitorsThis broadcast overview explores a diverse range of current events and cultural history, beginning with a look at California's coastal missions and the potential impact of a super El Niño. The narrative transitions into legal and political updates, specifically addressing mail-in ballot validation and the preservation of a historic casino sign in Las Vegas. Economic and geopolitical concerns are highlighted through rising fuel prices and military tensions at Middle Easternshipping choke points. Scientific discussions follow, covering the geological formation of Italy, the growth of commercial space travel, and the study of interstellar comets. Finally, the broadcast highlights a literary biography of George Sand, celebrating her as a groundbreaking French novelist and intellectual.California History Disasters And Ocean SwellsJeff Bliss speaks from San Luis Obispo, describing the 1772 Spanish mission built to project military and religious control in early California. Reflecting on the 25th anniversary of 9/11, he recalls being in San Luis Obispo preparing to fly to San Francisco when the attacks occurred, noting how generational memory of the event has shifted over time. Additionally, he discusses the severe damage along the Southern California coastline caused by Hurricane Marie's high heat, humidity, and massive swells that eroded beaches and threatened Amtrak rail lines. Finally, he highlights efforts to restore the iconic Circus Circus clown sign in Las Vegas. (1)Legal Challenges To Postal Voting RulesRichard Epstein analyzes the appellate court decision halting the Trump administration's proposed Postal Service mail-in voting rules. Epstein argues that while the government claims postal regulatory authority to combat potential fraud, applying restrictive envelope and documentation requirements acts as a harmful monopoly power over state election procedures. He emphasizes that the Postal Service lacks the necessary equipment, programs, or execution capability to process millions of ballots neutrally before the election, risking widespread voter disqualification. Epstein also criticizes President Trump's campaign promise to distribute $5,000 checks to adult citizens if Republicans win Congress, calling it an unfeasible and populist bribe. (2)Inflation Pressures And Local Pennsylvania ElectionsJim McTague reports on economic and political developments in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania. Rising gas prices—reaching $4.26 at Costco and up to $4.60 elsewhere—alongside diesel exceeding $6 per gallon, are squeezing family budgets and slowing retail activity across the region. Dining out costs have also increased substantially. On the political front, McTague discusses a visit from a campaign canvasser for Republican state representative candidate Tom Jones, who is challenging incumbent Democrat Malone. Notably, the canvasser actively avoided discussing Donald Trump, highlighting how local candidates in this traditionally Republican county are downplaying national party affiliations. (3)Wines And Cuisine Of Monferrato ItalyLorenzo Fiori explores the Monferrato region in Piedmont, Italy, highlighting its picturesque landscape of rolling hills, vineyards, and historic villages. He details the region's rich viticultural offerings, including Barbera red wines, Dolcetto, white wines such as Gavi, Cortese, and Arneis, as well as Asti Spumante and Vermouth. Fiori also describes regional culinary specialties, such as agnolotti—stuffed meat pasta served with butter, sage, or roast sauce—alongside beef tartare, truffles, and amaretti biscuits paired with Moscato d'Asti. He recommends visiting during September and October to experience the vibrant autumn colors, ideal weather, and seasonal food pairings. (4)Small Business Trends And AI ConcernsGene Marks discusses current economic conditions, noting strong corporate profits alongside owner concerns over rising regulations and labor costs. Warning of inevitable market contractions, he advises business owners to build cash reserves and credit lines. Marks also addresses workplace artificial intelligence trends, observing that younger workers often fear AI job displacement due to economic uncertainty, driving higher enrollment in trade and technical schools. Furthermore, he notes widespread distrust among business owners toward big tech executives regarding data privacy and security, even as businesses selectively adopt AI tools to enhance productivity. (5)Literary Legacy Of Novelist George SandFiona Sampson, author of Becoming George, Part Two: Sampson discusses French author George Sand (Aurore Dupin), examining her distinct appearance, unconventional attire, and public identity in 19th-century Paris. Sand broke social taboos through her independent lifestyle, extramarital affairs, and progressive writings on women, ecology, and working-class lives. Sampson outlines Sand's complex personal relationships, including her tense dynamic with her daughter Solange, her supportive role for her son Maurice, and her nine-year relationship with composer Frédéric Chopin, whose artistic output she enabled. Additionally, Sampson highlights Sand's deep literary friendship and correspondence with Gustave Flaubert and her enduring influence on modern literature. (6) Nuclear Proliferation And Orbital Space WarfareHenry Sokolski examines non-proliferation concerns surrounding Saudi Arabia's pursuit of domestic nuclear power and uranium enrichment capabilities. He questions proposed inspection arrangements and "black box" proposals, highlighting technical limits in detecting clandestine material diversion and warning of security risks in active war zones. Turning to space security, Sokolski describes a war game simulating a 2039 crisis between the United States and China over space-based interceptor networks like "Golden Dome." He warns that orbital systems designed for missile defense could also be deployed offensively to conduct space launch blockades or disable satellites, urging public debate over primary orbital military missions. (7)Commercial Space Boom And Planetary ExplorationBob Zimmerman, author of the 2017 policy paper Capitalism in Space, outlines a commercial space boom, predicting 14 operational rockets launching by early 2027—half of them American—which will significantly lower orbital launch costs and expand private enterprise. He details corporate developments involving Firefly, Relativity, Vast's commercial space station plans, and Europe's Exploration Company. Zimmerman also highlights India's efforts to privatize its space sector under Prime Minister Modi. Moving to planetary exploration, he notes the Curiosity rover's milestone climb up Mount Sharp on Mars, past discoveries of unique interstellar comet 3I/ATLAS, and Chandra X-ray Observatoryfindings revealing low-energy X-ray objects across distant galaxies.

1849 CLAUDE MONETCONTENTS FOR THE JOHN BATCHELOR SHOW, 9-10-2026Russian Election Strategy And European SecurityAnatol Lieven notes the Kremlin closely monitors legislative elections, banning opposition parties to preempt anti-war sentiment while relying on well-paid volunteers rather than unpopular mass conscription. Meanwhile, CIA Director John Ratcliffe visited Moscow, signaling possible shifts in diplomatic representation to explore war termination talks with Russian leadership. Discussions encompass discreet Russian assistance to Iran, hybrid warfare tactics in Europe, and mutual restraint among major global powers to avoid escalating into nuclear conflict. Concurrently, Great Britain faces severe military budget constraints, leaving its reserve forces underfunded and reducing its active fleet to just five operational warships. Political opposition across Europe further threatens long-term financial backing for Ukraine. (1)SpaceX Environmental Waivers For Louisiana PortDoug Messier reports SpaceX has proposed constructing Starbase Louisiana, a massive spaceport covering 125,000 acres along a vulnerable Gulf Coast ecosystem. The proposed facility plans to feature ten launchpads arranged in five clusters, natural gas extraction operations, employee housing, and a deepwater port facility to support thousands of annual Starship Super Heavy launches. To expedite development, the Department of Transportation proposed waiving twelve federal environmental protection laws, including the Clean Water Act and Endangered Species Act. While government officials argue these exemptions remove bureaucratic obstacles to supercharge commercial space exploration, conservation advocates warn that waiving regulatory oversight threatens fragile coastal habitats and likely violates statutory protections. (2)Analyzing Family Subsidies And National DebtVeronique de Rugy analyzes Vice President JD Vance's policy proposal to extend federal Child Care and Development Fund subsidies to stay-at-home parents. De Rugy contends that low-income single mothers cannot afford to leave the workforce, meaning the subsidies would primarily benefit higher-income households or families who had already chosen stay-at-home care. International examples in France, Norway, and Finland demonstrate that similar stay-at-home subsidies failed to reverse declining national fertility rates, benefiting higher-educated mothers instead. Furthermore, de Rugy criticizes proposals offering direct 5,000-dollar payments to citizens, warning that funding such initiatives through tariffs is financially unviable and would expand the national debt by over 1.35 trillion dollars. (3)Political Assets Intelligence Networks Financial TiesCraig Unger, author of American Kompromat, House of Trump, House of Putin, House of Bush, House of Saud, and Den of Spies, discusses intelligence allegations surrounding Donald Trump, evaluating claims by former Kazakh security official Alnur Mussayev that Trump served as a Russian intelligence asset. Unger distinguishes between formal intelligence agents and political assets, who may act as useful contacts or unknowing participants, while pointing out procedural irregularities regarding specific KGB directorates. He questions sending real estate representatives or political appointees rather than seasoned diplomats to negotiate complex conflicts in Moscow and Gaza. Unger also details historical Saudi political connections, noting how members of the Bin Laden family were flown out of American airspace immediately following the 9/11 attacks through private financial partnerships involving the Bush family and the Carlyle Group. (4)rones Target Russian Space Program InfrastructureAnatoly Zak and David Livingston: Zak reports on recent Ukrainian drone strikes against vital Russian space infrastructure, including the Progress aircraft company in Samara and the Plesetsk launch site. These targeted attacks aim to impede the manufacture of Soyuz rockets and delay the deployment of Russia's Rassvet satellite constellation, intended as a military equivalent to Starlink. While Soyuz and Angara rocket systems carry essential surveillance payloads for the Russian military, early Rassvet satellites have encountered operational difficulties, failing to reach intended orbits and risking atmospheric re-entry. Additionally, economic strain from wartime spending and budget deficits threatens Roscosmos, impacting future space station development following the retirement of the International Space Station. (5)Literary Evolution Of Novelist George SandFiona Sampson, author of Becoming George, explores the life and literary legacy of Amantine Lucile Aurore Dupin, who became the pioneering nineteenth-century French author George Sand. Sampson traces Sand's upbringing at Nohant, marked by childhood grief, an aristocratic paternal lineage blended with working-class maternal roots, and a formative convent education in Paris. After escaping a brief, unhappy marriage to Casimir Dudevant, Sand established independence in Paris, initially collaborating with Jules Sandeau before achieving immediate solo acclaim with her debut novels Indiana and Lélia. Her writings broke ground by depicting female interiority, challenging traditional marriage institutions, and infusing progressive political idealism into intimate social narratives amidst turbulent French political eras. (6)SecurityDynamics Across Latin American NationsEvan Ellis details US Secretary of State Marco Rubio's diplomatic tour across Colombia, Ecuador, and Peru to strengthen regional security partnerships. In Colombia, President de la Espriella has renewed security alignment with Washington, exited China's Belt and Road Initiative, and sought aid against Venezuelan transnational crime networks. Ecuador's President Noboa secured US anti-gang assistance and maritime vessels to counter expanding narco-trafficking violence. Meanwhile, Peru balances US counter-narcotics cooperation against deep-seated Chinese investments in mining, telecommunications, and the Chancay port. Ellis further examines judicial corruption in Brazil ahead of presidential elections, severe power grid collapses in Cuba and Venezuela, and potential tech investments in Argentinaunder President Milei.

Good Enough to Keep Watching, Not Good Enough to Stop Complaining This week on the podcast, Brian and Darryl take a somber look back at three icons we lost this week with Dolly Parton, Tim Curry, and Peter Cullen, and the massive mark each left on pop culture. Then it's back to the weekly watchlist as Ted Lasso tries to bring the Greyhounds together, Reacher digs deeper into an increasingly dangerous conspiracy, and Lanterns pushes Hal Jordan and John Stewart further into a mystery that is getting a whole lot more cosmic. Episode Index Intro: 0:07 Celebrity Deaths This Week: 4:46 Ted Lasso Season 4 Episode 4: 16:20 Reacher Season 4 Episode 5: 24:40 Lanterns Season 1 Episode 2: 3240 Celebrity Deaths Dolly Parton January 19, 1946 – August 25, 2026 | Age 80 Country music icon, songwriter, actress, businesswoman, and philanthropist Dolly Parton died August 25 after what her representatives described as a brief battle with cancer. Her six-decade career produced classics including “Jolene,” “9 to 5,” and “I Will Always Love You,” while her film career included 9 to 5 and Steel Magnolias. Parton's legacy extends far beyond music. She helped build Dollywood into one of Tennessee's biggest attractions and founded the Imagination Library, which has provided hundreds of millions of free books to children. Dollywood announced that the park would remain open following her death, honoring her belief that “the show must go on.” Infamous angle: One of those genuinely rare celebrities who seemed to transcend genre, politics, generations, and even celebrity culture itself. Tim Curry April 19, 1946 – August 25, 2026 | Age 80 Actor, singer, and voice performer Tim Curry died peacefully at his Los Angeles home following a period of ill health. Curry became a cultural icon as Dr. Frank-N-Furter in The Rocky Horror Picture Show, but his ridiculously versatile career also included Clue, It, Home Alone 2, Muppet Treasure Island, Legend, The Three Musketeers, and decades of stage and voice work. He received three Tony nominations and continued working after suffering a major stroke in 2012 that left him using a wheelchair. For an entire generation of genre fans, Curry was basically the patron saint of unforgettable villains and weirdos. Peter Cullen July 28, 1941 – August 26, 2026 | Age 85 Legendary Canadian voice actor Peter Cullen died peacefully at his Los Angeles home surrounded by family. No cause of death has been announced. Cullen became inseparable from Optimus Prime, originating the character’s voice in the 1984 Transformers animated series and returning repeatedly across animation, games, and the live-action films. He also voiced Eeyore in Winnie the Pooh and contributed memorable vocal work to Predator, Knight Rider, G.I. Joe, and numerous animated series. The voice and personality he created for Optimus were inspired in large part by his older brother Larry, a decorated Marine veteran, whose advice to Peter was essentially that a real hero should be strong enough to be gentle. That philosophy became fundamental to Optimus Prime. Infamous angle: For anybody who grew up in the ’80s, this one hits differently. Optimus Prime wasn’t merely a cartoon voice. Ted Lasson (Apple TV) Network: Apple TV Genre: Comedy / Sports / Drama Developed By: Jason Sudeikis, Bill Lawrence, Brendan Hunt, Joe Kelly Starring: Jason Sudeikis, Hannah Waddingham, Juno Temple, Brett Goldstein, Brendan Hunt, Jeremy Swift Season: 4 Episode: 4 Episode Title: “Greyhounds’ Day Off” Release Date: August 26, 2026 Episode Summary Ted, Beard, and Coach Alice try to break up the cliques developing within the new team by canceling practice and sending everyone out for some forced bonding, eventually leading the group to pub trivia and considerably more trouble than Ted probably planned. Meanwhile, Rebecca and Keeley attend a women’s football business summit where they encounter eccentric sports investor Zelda Southport, played by Tracey Ullman. Zelda’s aggressive approach to investing in women’s sports gets Keeley’s attention while Rebecca remains considerably more skeptical. Roy and Keeley’s increasingly complicated relationship also continues, with Keeley challenging Roy to actually date other women before the two seriously consider getting back together. Rating Out of 5, Boots Ain’t Messing Around Brian: 3.3/5 Darryl: 3.1/5 Reacher (Amazon Prime) Network: Prime Video Genre: Action / Crime / Thriller Based On: Gone Tomorrow by Lee Child Developed By: Nick Santora Starring: Alan Ritchson, Sydelle Noel, Agnez Mo, Christopher Rodriguez-Marquette, Kevin Corrigan Season: 4 Episode: 5 Episode Title: “Bridge” Release Date: August 26, 2026 Rating: TV-MA Series Summary A seemingly random encounter aboard a Philadelphia subway pulls Jack Reacher into a conspiracy involving a missing flash drive, government operatives, hired killers, and information powerful people are desperate to keep buried. Season four adapts Lee Child's Gone Tomorrow and drops Reacher into an increasingly tangled political and intelligence conspiracy. Episode Summary After a misunderstanding turns Reacher into Philadelphia's most wanted man, he spends much of the episode doing what Reacher does best: escaping situations that should probably be impossible to escape. Meanwhile, Jacob, Tamara, and Plum recover the flash drive Anna mailed before her death, along with her phone, but their attempt to finally get some answers turns into a violent confrontation with Lila and Amisha. Jacob gets his first genuine opportunity to strike back at the people responsible for his sister's death. The recovered evidence also starts bringing the larger conspiracy into focus. A photograph connects Congressman Sampson to a disgraced Indonesian general, but Reacher suspects another person in the image may actually be more important to the mystery. Anna's phone also gives the group stronger evidence tying Lila directly to the killings. By the end, Reacher and Tamara's investigation leads them toward another confrontation while Jacob is taken hostage, leaving Tamara with a pretty awful decision to make. And this one definitely supports the subtitle vibe we were talking about: there's plenty of entertaining Reacher insanity here, but the season is getting increasingly dependent on everyone accepting some wildly convenient and increasingly ridiculous shit to keep the plot moving. Rating Out of 5, How Many Ways Can One Person Escape the Police? Brian: 3.2/5 Darryl: 3.25/5 Lanterns (HBO Max) Lanterns Network: HBO / HBO Max Genre: Drama / Sci-Fi / Action / Mystery Created By: Chris Mundy, Damon Lindelof, Tom King Starring: Kyle Chandler, Aaron Pierre, Kelly Macdonald, Garret Dillahunt, Poorna Jagannathan, Laura Linney, Jason Ritter Season: 1 Episode: 2 Episode Title: “Trust Fall” Release Date: August 23, 2026 Rating: TV-14 Series Summary Veteran Green Lantern Hal Jordan is assigned to train former Marine and newly recruited Lantern John Stewart. Their relationship begins badly enough before the two are dragged into an investigation surrounding a bizarre killing in rural Nebraska. What initially resembles an Earthbound murder mystery steadily exposes a much larger extraterrestrial conspiracy connected to the history of the Green Lantern Corps. Episode Summary Hal and John investigate a deadly shooting in an attempt to prove that an alien force was responsible, with their investigation increasingly pointing toward one of the Green Lantern Corps’ oldest mistakes: the Manhunters. The episode digs deeper into the mystery surrounding Rushville while separating Hal and John enough to develop both characters individually. Sheriff Kerry also reveals that she originally came from Gotham, quietly expanding the show’s connections to the larger DCU.And then the episode drops the considerably bigger comic-book bomb: Sinestro, played by Ulrich Thomsen. The imprisoned former Lantern is positioned almost like the show’s Hannibal Lecter, someone Hal doesn’t trust but may need because Sinestro understands both Hal and the threat they are facing better than almost anyone.

Andrea Leigh Sampson, 35, worked in the civil division of the Anoka County Attorney's Office until March 2026. Prior to that date, state agents say Sampson was using her legal expertise to set up shell companies and locations for sexual trysts. Three others face charges including Frank Reeves, who the victims said was the pimp.

Key extensions to Tauranga's wharf have been given the green light after a seven-year battle. A fast-track expert panel's issued a draft decision proposing to grant all approvals sought by Port of Tauranga. The development involves extending the Sulphur Point container berth by 385 metres and the Mount Maunganui wharves by 315 metres. Port Chief Executive Leonard Sampson told Mike Hosking it's been incredibly frustrating getting to this stage. He says in the scheme of things, it's minor upgrades to accommodate more container vessels. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

On Saturday, August 15th, Tim Pletkovich will present “Confessions of a Baseball Scout” at 1 PM at the Steeple Building Museum. Pletkovich began scouting amateur players for the Philadelphia Phillies at age 14 and joined the Chicago Cubs at 21, becoming the youngest paid Major League Baseball scout at the time. He will share stories from his years scouting for the Cubs during the 1980s. Then, on Saturday, August 22nd, the annual Bishop Hill Chautauqua will take place in the park from 10 AM to 4 PM, weather permitting. The free event will feature first-person portrayals of historical figures, educational presentations, and music. Visitors are encouraged to bring lawn chairs. Donations are welcome, and Bishop Hill's museums, restaurants, and other attractions will also be available throughout the day. For more information, visit visitbishophill.com or contact the Bishop Hill Heritage Association at 309-927-3899. Bishop Hill to Host “Confessions of a Baseball Scout” with Tim Pletkovich Baseball fans will have a unique opportunity to step inside the world of professional baseball scouting when Tim Pletkovich presents “Confessions of a Baseball Scout” on Saturday, August 15, 2026, at the Steeple Building Museum in Bishop Hill. The presentation, hosted by the Bishop Hill Heritage Association, will begin at 1 PM and will feature stories and insights from Pletkovich's years evaluating baseball talent for Major League organizations. Pletkovich began sending scouting reports on amateur free agents to the Philadelphia Phillies at just 14 years old. At age 21, he joined the Chicago Cubs, becoming the youngest paid scout in Major League Baseball at the time. He went on to scout for the Cubs during the 1980s, gaining firsthand experience evaluating players and identifying potential professional talent. During his presentation, Pletkovich will share stories from his time with the Cubs and offer attendees a look at the world of professional scouting. The program provides a behind-the-scenes perspective on how scouts evaluated players during an era before today's widespread use of advanced technology and analytics. The event is part of the Bishop Hill Heritage Association's ongoing efforts to preserve and share the community's history and heritage while bringing unique educational programs to the public. Anyone interested in attending “Confessions of a Baseball Scout” is encouraged to contact the Bishop Hill Heritage Association at 309-927-3899. Additional information is available at bishophillheritage.org or by email at bhha@mymctc.net. Whether you're a lifelong baseball fan or simply interested in the fascinating stories behind America's pastime, this presentation offers a chance to discover what it was like to scout the next generation of professional baseball players. Bishop Hill Chautauqua to Bring History to Life on August 22, 2026 History will come alive in Bishop Hill on Saturday, August 22nd, as the Bishop Hill Historical Society presents its annual Chautauqua, a day-long program featuring historical portrayals, storytelling, and music. The event will take place in the park from 10 AM to 4 PM, weather permitting. If necessary, the program will be moved to a dry indoor location. All of the programs are free and open to the public, although donations are welcome. Visitors are encouraged to bring a lawn chair and enjoy the day in the historic community. The tradition of Chautauqua dates back to the late 1800s and early 1900s, when communities gathered for several days of music, lectures, preaching, entertainment, and discussions about current events and new ideas. Bishop Hill, Kewanee, and Geneseo were among the communities in the region that hosted Chautauqua programs. The modern Bishop Hill Chautauqua continues that tradition by using historians, storytellers, and actors to portray historical figures and bring important moments in history to life. The day's schedule will include: 10 AM – John Adams Brian “Fox” Ellis will portray John Adams, the second President of the United States and one of the nation's founding fathers. The first-person presentation will offer attendees an opportunity to learn about Adams' life and experiences while asking questions of the character. 11:30 AM – Deborah Sampson Judith Colerow will portray Deborah Sampson, a woman who disguised herself as a man in order to serve and fight during the American Revolutionary War. Colerow is traveling through the Midwest as part of her tour and will bring Sampson's remarkable story to the Bishop Hill stage. 1:30 PM – “1619: The Journey of a People” Dr. Ted Williams III, a professor and actor from Chicago, will present “1619: The Journey of a People.” The program will explore the history and experiences of African Americans, including slavery, Reconstruction, and the Civil Rights Movement. Music to Follow – “Power Song of Democracy” Folk singer Chris Vallillo will close out the day's programming with music spanning American history. His performance will feature songs ranging from Revolutionary War-era music to protest songs from the 1950s and 1960s. One of the unique aspects of the Bishop Hill Chautauqua is the opportunity for audience members to interact with the historical characters. Performers conduct extensive research to ensure their presentations are historically accurate and remain in character while answering questions. In addition to the Chautauqua programs, visitors can enjoy Bishop Hill's museums, restaurants, and other attractions throughout the day. For more information about the Chautauqua and other upcoming Bishop Hill events, visit visitbishophill.com or follow the Bishop Hill Heritage Association on "Facebook". The Bishop Hill Historical Society encourages residents and visitors to bring a lawn chair and spend the day experiencing history in a unique and interactive way.

Ovetta Sampson is a design researcher, AI leader, and founder of Right AI. She previously served as VP of ML and AI Platform Design at Capital One and worked at Google and IDEO. Ovetta brought that experience to the 2026 ITX Product + Design Conference, focusing her keynote on a question that often goes overlooked: what happens when people interact with increasingly powerful machines? To help us answer that question, Ovetta offers a pair of frameworks that center on human engagement risk, responsible AI, and rethinking how product teams design AI products. Building AI responsibly requires more than better models or more sophisticated tools. Product builders must also understand the cognitive, social, cultural, and physical risks that can emerge when humans interact with technology. AI inherits many of the biases embedded in the data used to build it, Ovetta says. So organizations need to rethink how disciplines collaborate; as the lines between traditional product, design, engineering, and security silos blur, responsible AI requires organizations to redesign not only their products, but also the processes used to create them. Here's what else we learned: Human Engagement Risk Belongs in AI Product Design Ovetta's human engagement risk (H-E-R) framework is based on a fundamental premise: technology can harm people when designers fail to account for how humans behave around machines. The H-E-R framework identifies cognitive, social, cultural, physiological, and community risks. These risks become especially important with generative AI, where people can easily attribute human qualities to systems that do not actually possess them. As a result, AI product teams must consider psychological and cognitive outcomes alongside traditional usability concerns. Ovetta cautions: “There are real dangerous risks when we engage with machines and don’t mindfully think about the outcomes that can happen when we don’t protect humans psychologically, cognitively, physically, and physiologically.” AI Strategy Starts With Executive Leadership Responsible AI also requires leadership decisions that extend beyond individual tools or experiments, Ovetta says. Many mid-sized organizations are hesitant to adopt AI because executives are concerned about intellectual property, trust, and data leaks. Meanwhile, employees may already be integrating AI solutions without an overarching organizational strategy. It's a disconnect that creates opportunity for leadership to establish clear priorities before adoption becomes fragmented. AI strategy starts at the top, Ovetta adds, because executives have the authority to establish the conditions under which technology gets developed and used. “Once the C-suite understands the risk to their shareholders, to their products, to their employees, to their customers, it is much easier for me to bring in the implementation of how to mitigate those risks.” Dismantling Silos Is Essential for Effective AI Development AI challenges the traditional handoff model in which designers, engineers, security, legal, compliance, and other teams work separately before passing projects along. Ovetta says AI development requires continuous cross-functional input instead. Her D-C-R framework – draft, critique, revise – organizes teams around development stages, bringing the right expertise into each phase. “Instead of saying, ‘I’m a designer' or ‘I’m a researcher,' or ‘I’m a product manager,' or ‘I'm an engineer,' we say, ‘I’m in the draft mode,'” Ovetta adds. “Each skill set in that move brings what they need to get that draft ready for critiquing, right? And so it’s something that I give to organizations and teams to try to reimagine how they actually do their jobs.” Ovetta Sampson is not arguing for less innovation with AI; instead, she's arguing for a different definition of responsible innovation – one that embeds human consequences, executive accountability, and cross-functional collaboration into the product development process itself. [03:10] Protecting the fragility of humanity. There are a lot of things us humans engage in, especially what I call the cognitive biases, that make engaging with machines and other automated systems that make it risky for us. [05:57] The H-E-R Framework. But what it really is, is there are five dimensions. There’s the cognitive, there’s the social, there’s cultural, there the physiological. And then the overall community risks that when humans engage with machines, that can happen.  [10:08] LLMs built on ‘traumatized data sets.’ Generative AI has no moral code. It does not know truth or fact. And accuracy is not in its wheelhouse. In fact, it’s not in this training and it’s in its goals. So why when we type something into chat GPT, we expect truth back? I don’t know. [13:24] Protecting my values as a creator. That’s where I really want to start, because I don’t want to be a part of that. I don’t want to part of designing something that harms people. [14:00] I observed one reoccurring truth. Whatever is happening in the basement of a company starts in the C-suite. So if there is sexism, if there’s homophobia, if there racism, if there is bad culture, if it starts at the C-suite. Because the C-suite is the person who has the ultimate authority about what occurs in every floor of an organization. [18:26] The D-C-R framework — draft, critique, revise. The D-C-R framework is something I created because I was trying to explain to designers and product and engineers how their processes would change when they’re designing for and with AI. Each one of these disciplines should go through that makes the handoffs more like a circular iterative.

When we lead our tours to the Holy Land, we will inevitably pull out some humor from the Biblical sources, attempting to create memories of laughter in remote parts of the tour. Our Bible jokes are many and varied and of a quality that only a dad could appreciate. “Who is the great tennis player of the Bible? Of course, everyone knows it's Joseph, because he served in Pharoah's courts! And who was the great comedian of the Bible? It was Sampson. He brought the house down! And what kind of man was Boaz before he got married? Ruthless! … I'm waiting for all of you to finish laughing. And then we pull out the most obvious one: Who was the greatest doctor of the Bible? Some contend it was Job, because he had a lot of ‘patience.' But most would agree it's Moses because he delivered all the children of Israel! All humor aside, we know that the greatest physician in the Bible is the Savior Himself—the one who can heal each of us. This week we will see some of the ways that Job reminds us of Jesus and leads us to Him.

Five prisoners are kept awake for fifteen days in a sealed chamber — and what the researchers find when they open the door no longer wants to be set free. A blockbuster film series trails a string of real-life deaths its cast can't explain. On the back roads of Maryland, a half-goat figure waits for teenagers who wander too far. And one ordinary night in El Paso, a couple walks out of their home — dishes still in the sink, cat unfed — and is never seen again.EPISODE BLOG PAGE (includes sources): https://weirddarkness.com/russiansleepexperiment/READ or DOWNLOAD the full transcript of this episode: https://weirddarkness.tiny.us/3rr9mhjxFEATURED STORIES IN THIS EPISODE: The Russian Sleep Experiment *** The Poltergeist Film Curse *** The Goat-Man of Maryland *** The Patterson Family Disappearance *** The Legend of the LeprechaunCHAPTERS & TIME STAMPS (All Times Approximate)…00:00:00.000 = The Foreboding00:01:06.939 = Show Open00:01:55.409 = The Poltergeist Curse00:06:21.074 = The Goatman of Prince George's County00:14:07.417 = The Lore of the Leprechaun ***00:16:55.345 = Vanishing of the Pattersons00:27:39.437 = The Russian Sleep Experiment ***00:43:05.653 = Show Close*** = Begins immediately after inserted ad breakLISTEN ON PODCAST APPS: Look for this podcast on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, iHeart Radio, Amazon Music, Pandora, TuneIn Radio, and other podcast apps.

Copyright ©2026, Weird Darkness.Originally aired: July 22, 2018Weird Darkness travels from a cursed Hollywood film set to a Maryland goat-monster, the cobbler-fairies of Irish legend, a vanished El Paso couple, and a blood-soaked Soviet sleep laboratory where the test subjects no longer wanted to be set free.It opens with the deaths that shadow the Poltergeist films, beginning with Heather O'Rourke, who played Carol Anne Freeling from the original 1982 release through both sequels and died at twelve in San Diego in February 1986 during surgery for a bowel obstruction later traced to a congenital intestinal flaw. Dominique Dunne, who played older sister Dana Freeling, was strangled in 1982 by John Sweeney outside her Hollywood home, and Sweeney served just three years and seven months. Julian Beck, the gaunt preacher Kane of Poltergeist II, died of stomach cancer in 1983, and Will Sampson, who played the shaman Taylor, died after a heart-lung transplant — four deaths that fed a curse legend later thickened by JoBeth Williams' claim that Steven Spielberg used real human skeletons as cheaper props and by Sampson's own ritual cleansing of the set.From there the episode crosses into Prince George's County, Maryland, where the Goatman has stalked local legend for decades. One origin story sets him at the Beltsville Agricultural Research Center, a half-man, half-goat creature born from a USDA experiment gone wrong; another makes him a herdsman driven mad after teenagers slaughtered his flock. University of Maryland folklorist Barry Pearson traces his heyday to the 1970s and the 1971 decapitation of a puppy named Ginger in Bowie, an incident the Washington Post covered and locals pinned on the creature haunting Fletchertown and Lottsford roads, while Beltsville spokesperson Kim Kaplan dryly wonders whether a goatman that old would be collecting Social Security by now.Next the show turns to Irish folklore and the leprechaun, the solitary fairy whose name traces to a Gaelic root for a small body or a shoemaker. Standing two to three feet tall in a green or red coat and buckled shoes, he works as a fairy cobbler who stitches only a single shoe and never a pair, guards a hidden pot of gold, and trades three wishes for his freedom when a human manages to catch him. He lives in cave networks reached through rabbit holes and the hollow trunks of fairy trees, and damaging one of those trees is said to draw a lifetime of bad luck.From the green hills of Ireland the episode moves to El Paso, Texas, where William and Margaret Patterson left their home at 3000 Piedmont Drive on March 5, 1957 and were never seen again, dinner dishes still in the sink and their cat Tommy left without food. The owners of Patterson Photo Supply vanished without packing a suitcase, their associate Doyle Kirkland turned up driving William's Cadillac with a thin story about a vacation, and a telegram from Dallas signed with the wrong middle initial named Kirkland as William's replacement at the store. Decades on, caretaker Reinaldo Nangre claimed he had cleaned blood from the garage and found a piece of scalp on the boat propeller before dying in a car crash, and Sheriff Leo Samaniego floated the theory that the couple were Soviet spies photographing Fort Bliss, leaving a disappearance that was declared a death in 1964 and has never been solved.The episode closes in the late 1940s, when Soviet researchers sealed five political prisoners in a chamber and kept them awake for fifteen days with an experimental gas-based stimulant, promising freedom in exchange for thirty sleepless days. Paranoia set in after five days, screaming after nine, and when the chamber was opened on the fifteenth the soldiers found four men still alive amid their own torn-out organs, having eaten their own flesh and blocked the floor drain with it, fighting any attempt to remove them and begging for the gas rather than sleep. One subject, pinned for surgery without anesthetic, wrote only the words "keep cutting," and as the last of them was shot through the heart he claimed to be the madness that lurks in every sleeping mind, choking out that he was so nearly free.
