Here's a Thought… #2726 with Brooks Jensen Food, Clothing, Shelter, and Artwork? Does anyone need artwork to survive? I suspect not. On the other hand, I struggle to imagine a life without art. Why is artwork so important? An even greater mystery is why making artwork is so important. If photography was for some unknown reason suddenly denied to me, I'd take up pen and ink drawing, or haiku writing, or composing really awful classical symphonies. Or buy a kazoo. Something, anything. I wonder why? What is so valuable about having art in our life? Become a member of LensWork Online and have access to all 2700+ Here's a Thought… commentaries.

Randall's path to Kosmogonia began in 1973, when an architectural magazine called Shelter introduced him to sacred geometry while documenting a geodesic dome he and his brother Rhoen built in rural Minnesota. What started as a study of how Greek, Egyptian, and Gothic builders solved the problem of optimal interaction with the environment became a fifty-year obsession, and a parallel career as a homeschool tutor in mathematics, geometry, and geology gave him direct insight into education outside what he calls the industrial indoctrination model. The course he is launching covers practical applications most people never connect to geometry: a dodecahedron's internal angles total 6,480 degrees, exactly one quarter of the roughly 26,000-year precessional cycle of the Earth's axis, a numerical correlation between spatial and temporal patterns that Randall argues was understood by ancient cultures and is foundational to his curriculum.https://kosmogoniauniversity.com/Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/earth-ancients--2790919/support.

Guest Ryan Wiggins joins the show to discuss progressive political messaging and democratic socialist policy initiatives. The hosts evaluate statements by Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez on national broadcast networks addressing Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) platforms—including proposals on defense spending, law enforcement, and judicial restructuring—contrasting them with economic cost-of-living messaging. Additionally, Wiggins reviews a published account by writer Lee Kuan Yimby describing experiences working in a Los Angeles homeless shelter. The conversation examines non-profit shelter governance, accountability, substance abuse protocols, and political ideology shifts among younger demographics.

But those, within whose hearts the priceless virtue does not abide — those men remain thirsty and unsatisfied. || 1 || Worshipping the Lord in adoration, one becomes happy, and free of disease. But one who forgets my Dear Lord — know him to be afflicted with tens of thousands of illnesses. || Pause || Those who hold tightly to Your Support, God, are happy in Your Sanctuary. But those humble beings who forget the Primal Lord, the Architect of Destiny, are counted among the most miserable beings. || 2 || One who has faith in the Guru, and who is lovingly attached to God, enjoys the delights of supreme ecstasy. One who forgets God and forsakes the Guru, falls into the most horrible hell. || 3 || As the Lord engages someone, so he is engaged, and so does he perform. Nanak has taken to the Shelter of the Saints; his heart is absorbed in the Lord's feet. || 4 || 4 || 15 ||This hymn (Shabad) composed by Guru Arjan Dev Ji in Raag Sorath contrasts the peace of spiritual connection with the suffering caused by forgetting the Divine:Fulfillment vs. Desire: Those whose minds are focused on God's lotus feet find true inner contentment and peace, whereas those without divine virtues remain trapped in endless material desires and spiritual thirst.Health and Suffering: Remembering God bestows spiritual vitality, good health, and true joy. Conversely, forgetting the divine leads to overwhelming mental, physical, and emotional distress.Sanctuary in God and the Guru: True happiness and supreme ecstasy come from taking refuge in the Creator and following the Guru's teachings. Straying from this path results in deep spiritual torment.Divine Will and Holy Company: Human action is ultimately guided by Divine Will (Hukam). Guru Nanak Ji emphasizes that true immersion in God's presence is attained through the humble guidance and congregation of the Saints (Sadh Sangat).

These are just some of the things that have happened on other editions of August 8 throughout recent time. There has only been one regular edition of Charlottesville Community Engagement in the six years since publication began so when you're done here go back and time travel.In this edition:* Charlottesville to hire outside groups to manage emergency shelter and encampment clearance (read the story)* Voices speak out against upcoming ending of Rivanna River encampments (read the story)* Charlottesville City Manager Sam Sanders explains how 2000 Holiday Drive is just part of the city's response to homelessness (read the story)* Albemarle EDA to support classes to assist wine industry learn new techniques after difficult spring (read the story)* More people using Ivy Solid Waste and Recycling Center (read the story)Behind the scenes of #1104-AOnce again, the time it takes to put together the audio podcast ends up being much longer than it should be. Throughout the week as I am writing stories, I keep track of them in a spreadsheet. One of the columns indicates whether the story has a sound element to it. Not all stories come from meetings, but those that do are fodder for both the WTJU radio show as well as this podcast version.For 650 editions or so, the newsletter and the podcast for one and the same. The reason there's an anecdote at the moment is to serve as something the listener would hear to get used to my voice. It's a way I personalize the newsletter and try to offer something more than just the information.I learn so much in the course of doing that research and I've kept writing them because doing so wakes up my brain and gets me ready for the work of finishing the newsletter.There are currently no plans to reunify the newsletter and the podcast because the audience interested in the sonic product is much smaller. I can imagine a time when there's a partnership with a radio station or other production company to produce this work. Right now I'm very to be working with WTJU and glad the radio version was named Best News Program this year by the Alliance for Community Media.If you've never heard one of these before, this is a good place to start. The segments are much longer than you're going to hear anywhere else, and I think that's incredibly important to have an alternative. This particular edition is a 30 minute summary of one of the most difficult issues of our time. It hits differently when you hear people's voices.Now, time to produce it so I can get on with the rest of the week. Thank you for reading or listening.And now the cut-and-paste bit intended to get your help in getting more eyes on the stories:* I post stories over at BlueSky but don't really do much else than that at this point. Here's the account for Information Charlottesville.* You can also subscribe to get Information Charlottesville postings via email Wordpress. This is where I confess I don't entirely know the link for this. Might be a pop-up?* Town Crier Productions has a Facebook page but I'm really not sure if it's worth keeping as the site doesn't really seem to like Substack material. Or Wordpress material. In six years of doing this, I've never had a post “go viral” and I think it's all throttled. I don't pay them any money anymore* And then there's Instagram which gets a couple of likes every now and then though I am really bad at images! This is a public episode.

The Bay Area's homelessness crisis is one of the most acute in the nation, and it has concentrated in the region's biggest cities, like San Jose. Many communities have adopted new policies aimed at mitigating the crisis – from checks aimed at stabilizing vulnerable renters to making it illegal to refuse shelter beds. We examine the causes and potential solutions being implemented around the Bay Area, with a special look at a series of controversial new policies being implemented in the South Bay, including an effort to redirect funding from permanent housing projects to build more forms of temporary shelter.

This week on Better Buildings for Humans, host Joe Menchefski sits down with architect, industrial designer, and artist Hamid Mohammadi, founder of Good Place Design, for an inspiring conversation about the intersection of architecture, creativity, and human experience. Drawing on his unique background across industrial design, architecture, and contemporary art, Hamid shares why great design isn't confined to a single discipline—and how spaces, objects, and art all have the power to elevate mood, strengthen community, and deepen our connection to the natural world.The discussion explores everything from the influence of natural daylight, materials, and spatial clarity on human wellbeing to biophilic design, belonging, community, adaptive reuse, rapid prototyping, 3D printing, and the creative process itself. Hamid also explains why architecture should inspire rather than simply function, how optimism has become a central theme in both his artwork and design philosophy, the importance of designing authentic spaces with honest materials, and why buildings should create meaningful connections—not only between people and nature, but between individuals and the communities around them.It's a thoughtful conversation about designing places that genuinely enrich people's lives—and a reminder that the most memorable buildings aren't defined by their size, budget, or complexity. They're the ones that foster belonging, spark optimism, encourage human connection, and quietly improve the way we experience the world every single day.More About Hamid MohammadiHamid is an architect with over ten years of experience in Toronto, Ontario. He is an expert in the design and construction of residential and commercial buildings, having worked for several highly respected architectural firms and a developer in Toronto, Hamid has gained valuable experience in all project phases. He brings a deep understanding of the requirements and approval processes required for creating meaningful architectural projects in the Greater Toronto Area and in different parts of Canada. From Rezoning, ZBA, OLT settlements, Construction Documents, Tender Drawing packages, project management and the construction phases of projects, Hamid brings valuable experience to all different project phases with a keen sense of integration of client requirements. Hamid is an effective listener and communicator with a strong passion for good design and the positive impacts it can have on peoples lives.

This episode is sponsored-in-part by Maddie's Fund, OcuTrap, and The Community Cat Clinic. Corinne Bourgoin returns to the podcast five years after her first appearance, and the numbers show what's changed: the MSPCA Boston Adoption Center's return-to-home rate for cats hit 33% in 2025, more than six times the roughly 5% national average. She draws a careful distinction between "return to owner" and "return to home" — sometimes a cat goes back to one caretaker, sometimes to a neighborhood that's been caring for it collectively — and traces the results back to a mindset shift: assume every stray has someone looking for it, and treat reunification as the shelter's job, not just the owner's. From there, Corinne gets practical. A dedicated, well-followed Facebook page puts stray photos in front of the neighborhoods cats actually came from. For microchipped cats, she doesn't stop at the manufacturer's registry — she cross-checks petmicrochiplookup.com for the most current database, then follows up with whoever implanted the chip. She also shares how anyone can do this detective work before a cat ever reaches a shelter: neighbor conversations, Nextdoor and community Facebook posts, flyers, and "paper collars" — a strip of paper taped around a friendly cat's neck asking, "Is this your cat?" Technology like AirTags helps, but she's clear it's only half the equation; the other half is neighbors staying present in their own communities. The conversation turns to ear tips and how "community cat" has shifted from a behavioral judgment call to a population-risk one — any unaltered outdoor cat, tipped or not. Corinne's years at Maui Humane Society gave that shift real stakes: during the Maui wildfires, more than 600 cats survived the burn zone, many already sterilized and ear-tipped, which meant no kitten boom compounding the recovery. She closes with Tiger, a geriatric cat who arrived at the shelter after five years missing — his microchip led her to an owner who'd long given up hope, and he walked straight to the cabinet where his food bowl used to sit.

The clock is ticking for people living at a large encampment in Pig's Eye Park in St. Paul. The city plans to clear the site on Wednesday. Advocates have been working to connect people living there with shelter and other services ahead of the closure though they say there still aren't enough places for everyone to go. Outreach workers from the Union Gospel Mission Twin Cities have been at the encampment almost every day since the clearing announcement was made. Community Relations Director Sarah Peterka joined Minnesota Now to talk about how they're planning for what's next.

This playlist is 91% vinyl friendly. Near perfect. Philips, The Tina Century Bluetooth Turntable room.. A £350-£400 retro look to blend in with your wood panelling room, it reminds me of a car grill from the 1960s. Built-in speakers with deep (how low can you go) bass and crystal-clear highs. Any track marked * has been given either a tiny or a slightly larger 41 Rooms tweak/edit/chop and the occasional tune might sound a bit dodgy, quality-wise. On top of that, the switch between different decades and production values never helps in the mix here. Lyric of Playlist 154 Tim Hardin’s lyric and song title. 00.00 (Intro) THE FLAMINGOS – Stars (Edit) – Unreleased demo – 1983. Episode #1 for info. 00.41 NEW ORDER – Dreams Never End (John Peel session: 16.2.81) – The Peel Sessions 12″ EP – Strange Fruit – 1987 Diary for Jan 16, ’81 says ‘Karl W round. NEW ORDER JOHN PEEL…‘ Those caps signal something special and the journey had begun at Heaven, London a week earlier. Two good mates called Karl were there, though I hadn’t realised the one at my house listening to the first broadcast of the session was a Carl. 03.45 THE TEARDROP EXPLODES – Second Head – Kilimanjaro, LP – Mercury – 1980 Listening to this album now it’s got a bit of a bubbly and bouncy feel. Judging by a set list suggested for the Manchester Poly night’ that followed ours/mine it doesn’t look like Second Head made into our night here. Packed with Kilimanjaro tracks though. 06.55 TOM PETTY and THE HEARTBREAKERS – I Need To Know – 7″ – Shelter – 1978 Still with a fair amount of ‘rock’ in my world at this point in time, for some reason I thought I’d had a 12″ of this but that would have been a bit daft. At just 2mins 22 plus, a fiery new wave feel that could have made it as an Elvis Costello tune. 09.17 FORMAL SPPEEDWEAR – Who Needs Spain Ball – Punch Card, LP – Melodic – 2026 “Who Needs Spain Ball?”. ‘On the surface, the single functions as a highly accessible, synth-forward New Wave track featuring the record's biggest, most infectious pop chorus. However, the title and the song’s inner mechanics are intentionally surreal, designed to “pull the rug” out from under the listener‘. – Apologies, I forgot the source. An early Talking Heads vibe going on? They’re pulling the rug even more with their merch – with the band’s name the only lettering… album t-shirts! 12.28 BIG JOANIE – It’s You – Sistahs, LP – The Daydream Library Series – 2018 So post punk! 14.48 EGOSLAVIA – Twist Face – Self-titled, (mini) LP – 9 1/2 x 16″ Records – 1982 Not that many will have debated it but I’ve always pronounced this band as ‘Egoslayvia’ and it’s only just dawned on me it was likely ‘Egoslahvia’. Better late… and a band I was introduced to by a US guy who dropped in on John Peel’s radio show somewhere in the ’80s. Very unusual for Peely to have anyone else in the studio with him but his guest was picking tracks from three or so US bands that Peely had never heard of, something that irritated the latter, slightly. 20.08 BIFFER BONKER – 4 Prong, Fucked Up, 2 Potato Thing – Biffer Bonker Is…Unabashed, download album only – ? – 2026 Anyone with a decades long history of Bedford, UK’s musical landscape stretching back to punk bands of the mid to late 70s will have knowledge of Biffer in a former life or three fronting a wealth of different bands but his present world view is available here, with something from the man for me currently getting waylaid by various postal services. ‘No god is required… ‘ Ain’t that the truth and if there isn’t a lyric sheet involved somewhere I might be requesting one :), as he’ll be back here at some point. He’s also the man who introduced me to Click Click via an early demo tape of theirs somewhere around 1984. 23.17 BROKEN SPINDLES – To Die, For Death – Fulfilled / Complete, LP – Saddle Creek – 2004 Content with having spun Induction on an earlier show, and as it turns out, rightly guessing on the album’s diversity I hadn’t been rushing to grab the physical vinyl… but here we are! One Joel Peterson, from Omaha, Nebraska. 25.35 TARWATER – 20 Miles Up – Silur, LP – Kitty-Yo – 1986 From the US to Germany and there’s a far wider breadth to this duos ‘catalogue’ than the two tracks now spun on 41 Rooms would suggest. 29.35 RIPPLE – I Don’t Know What It Is But It Sure Is Funky – 7″ – GRC – 1973 I don’t know about I Don’t Know… but with no UK release it’s unlikely our mainstream radio of the time spun this, though maybe a DJ or two down the Pilgrims or in the Anglers (Inn) Lair across the road could have. I have strong memories of hearing Willie Henderson’s Dance Master at the latter. 32.53 MARY KENT – Lost Generation – 7″ – CBS – 1969 It’s a slower, darker take than the version the song’s writer, Jim(my) Webb put out himself a year later and though Mary’s intro needed red carding for the show her version has some gravitas and feels ‘worthier’ now than it may have done to the UK’s record buyers back in 1969… what with the Vietnam war being… yep, somewhere else. The intro brings to my mind Common Sense’s Resurrection ’95. 36.57 LADY BLACKBIRD vs CROOKED MAN – Whatever His Name (Pt 1) * – Crooked Spirituals Remixes, 12″ – Foundation – 2025 She’s rightly got her soul audience but I much prefer her vocals set against some electronic goings on, as with the already 41 Rooms’ spun Athletes Of God and some remixing bods, including here, Crooked Man. They seem to give her vocals more of an edge for me. 42.18 ROBERTO RODRIGUEZ (feat. MAX C) – About This Love (Crazy P Remix) (Dub) * – 12″ – Compost Black Label – 2009 The vocals are incidental but the track just keeps building, dropping, shifting. A head-nod-a-thon of slight unease. 45.42 CLICK CLICK – Stay Out Of The Water – 12″ b-side – Rorschach Testing – 1985 Great times in the summer and autumn of ’85. Our RT label is off and running with a party at Winkles (Bedford), a P(roduction) and D(istribution) deal with Rough Trade, 500 copies of the initial yellow and blue sleeved 12″ pressing head straight to the US off the back of A-side (Sweet Stuff) getting CC Single Of The Week in Sounds and with spins on John Peel’s radio show there are one-off gigs in London, Brighton and Northampton and rehearsals are sounding great. Gig poster for 28.11.84. Part of a Rorschach Testing ad, The Catalogue #29, Aug ’85. 49.24 SIMPLE MINDS – Premonition (John Peel session: 7.1.80) – Silver Box, 5CD – Virgin – 2004 Having already seen them on the OGWT (live from Hurrah’s New York) and live at the Marquee the previous month I must have heard this session but for whatever reason I definitely didn’t record it. A ropey photo below of mine from London’s Hammersmith Palais, 26.8.80. 54.28 THE FALL – Dktr. Faustus * – Bend Sinister, LP – Beggars Banquet – 1986 It’s about time Mark E Smith (RIP) and his gang made it back here… so they have. 00.01.00 ECHO and THE BUNNYMEN – I Bagsy Yours (John Peel session: 22.8.79) – The Peel Sessions 12″ EP – 1988 This show’s third Peel session track of the era and the song renamed Monkeys in time to nestle next to the track Crocodiles months later on their debut album. I’m with ‘Bagsy’, though. Even us southerners used the term back then, though it might be best to not remember how it was being used here. 01.02.47 THE MOVE – I Can Hear The Grass Grow – 7″ – Deram – 1967 ‘An early, proto-psychedelic freakbeat masterpiece‘ in some modern day circles but a fab bit of wild pop back then. As the years rolled on though, the ‘weedier’ (sadly) Roy Wood’s guitar interjections have sounded. 01.05.52 PETULA CLARK – The Other Man’s Grass (Is Always Greener) – 7″ – Pye – 1967 Husband and wife writers, Tony Hatch and Jackie Trent (or in this particular case, Jackie Trent and Tony Hatch :)), with their key and tempo changing swirler giving ‘Our Pet’ her last Top 20 hit. So idiosyncratic it never got covered by anyone else or maybe offered as an exclusive to Petula? Either way, I bet Trent (no mean singer herself) forwarded a guide vocal version and I’d have been interested in hearing that. And it’s taken me a week to realise I’ve placed two songs next to each with ‘Grass’ in the title. Very unintentional but spooky and true. 01.08.49 BROOKE COMBE – Tears Won’t Lie * – 7″ – Fontana – 2026 I reckon Northern soul’s younger followers will dance and some older purists will very likely pick at the production but Combe and co-writer, James Skelly have nailed it, and if this song had been recorded in the mid 1960s – and maybe on the label this 7″ now pays homage to (with say Kiki Dee?) – there’d be an even bigger price tag on it than this barely out of the 2026 pressing plant £18 7′ already commands. Also, all involved in the Combe camp will have been as meticulous on the look for the dancers in the video as was MT Jones for his I Don’t Understand. Paying homage can be tough stuff. 01.11.19 TERRY CALLIER – Ordinary Joe – 7″ – Cadet – 1972 Terry and producer, Charles Stepney with a ‘skipping along the road’ feel. An even more expensive buy than the above… and I have neither. 01.15.17 CHAIRMEN OF THE BOARD – Give Me Just A Little More Time – 7″ – Invictus – 1970 INV 501. Did Invictus kick off their UK releases with a homage to Tamla Motown’s UK singles catalogue. Five years earlier the latter had also started with (TMG) 501, via The Supremes’ Stop In The Name Of Love. 01.17.57 JACKIE WILSON – I Get The Sweetest Feeling – 7″ – Brunswick – 1968 1968 for Jackie but the mid ’70s for me. Putnoe, Bedford… sunshine… Gill H… 01.20.49 THE CONTROLLERS – Somebody’s Gotta Win, Somebody’s Gotta Loose (7″ version) – 7″ – Juana – 1977 I didn’t knowingly hear this til maybe twenty years ago. With the amount of music that bypasses us, is it possible I’ve never heard the greatest song I could ever hear? 01.24.42 UMBRA MOON – Don’t Let Me Down – Download only – 2024 This Australian girl is seemingly taking longer to break out than I would have imagined but though stylistically aside of my normal listening, this is a gem. 01.28.02 SHAWN PHILLIPS – Solitude – 7″ b-side – Columbia – 1965 With my copy bought for this side alone, there are few artists I’ve come across who have been both super jaunty and deeper than deep in the songwriting department and 41 Rooms can be with Shawn in both moods. 01.30.48 JOHN and BEVERLEY MARTYN – Primrose Hill – 7″ – Warner Brothers – 1970 In 1970 approximately 1% of the American population had a passport, so aside thinking (at best) Primrose Hill maybe had some Civil War battle reference for them they were going to struggle to warm to this London landmark being referenced, even though somebody at Warners US – as opposed to their UK counterpoints – thought this Carole King-like tune had legs as a single. Sadly, they were wrong, with the promo 7″ likely more common than the stock copy. 01.33.40 TIM HARDIN – You Upset The Grace Of Living When You Lie – 7″ promo only – Verve Forecast – 1967 Yep, lyric and title of show 154 goes to… though at 1min 45 it’s nearly over by the time he’s got through singing the line. A ragged, slightly altered take of the song was part of Hardin’s performance at Woodstock but his set only got to make it to an official release of the festival in 2019. 01.35.22 JOSE FELICIANO – Dirty Work – For My Love… Mother Music, LP – RCA – 1974 It’s likely I’d be outnumbered with my thinking here but Jose’s passion makes Steely Dan’s own recorded version, sung by their then main vocalist, David Palmer, sound lack lustre. 01.38.08 VANGELIS – He-O – Earth, LP – Vertigo – 1973 Back in Vangelis’ big years I only got around to wanting his 1976 single, Pulstar but then hearing the Beatfanatics Balearic Boogie Remix of Let It Happen in 2007 led me backwards to this album and it’s the vocals (of one Robert Fitoussi) on both tracks that seem to make the difference for me. 01.42.05 STEVIE WONDER – Pastime Paradise * – Songs In The Key Of Life, 2LP – Tamla Motown – 1976 I bought the album at the time but my youthful ignorance didn’t fully take in the scale of Stevie’s accomplishment and looking now at the full tracklisting there were only six tracks I regularly played, with Pastime Paradise being one of them. The American buyers who took Songs… to No 1 in the Billboard album charts will have delved deeper. 01.45.21 KOICHI OZAKI – Petal Of The Cherry Blossom * – Novo Tempo / Koichi Ozaki: Novo Tempo Meets Eurasian Suite Vol. 2, 12″ – Eurasian Suite – 2004 If I could dip into the whole of the soul/(acid)jazz/beats etc etc world of the Japanese from the ’90s onwards there’d be a basket full of great tunes I’ve yet to hear. So little time… 01.51.22 KEITH JARRETT (TRIO) – Dancing – Changeless, LP – ECM Records – 1989 ‘Original material which is deeply subversive (though also respectfully aware) of the whole tradition of jazz as a system of improvisation on ‘the changes’… On Changeless, there are no chord progressions at all; the trio improvises each section in a single key, somewhat in the manner of an Indian raga‘. – The Penguin Guide to Jazz. ‘These pieces – not written, rehearsed, thought out, sketched, or arranged – ‘came up’ in the middle of four distinctly different concerts. Process is swifter and more accurate than thought.‘ – Keith Jarrett’s album liner notes (edited). Show 155 arrives Sept 6.

Spoiler alert: this week we're analyzing the Twilight Zone episode “The Shelter.” It's Dr. Bill Stockton's birthday, and all of his neighbors and friends have gathered to celebrate. But, when a broadcast comes over the airwaves that unidentified flying objects–not of the little green men kind–have been spotted in the area, everyone panics, all except for Bill, who has spent the last few months building a shelter for just this occasion. And when those same neighbors start to come by to see if they can get their families into the good doctor's shelter, that's when harsh words and even fists begin to fly. On this episode of KOI: A Twilight Zone Show, we're going to do our best to figure out if the Stocktons would have even survived an atomic blast in 1961; we'll talk about whether or not things could ever go back to the way they were before the bomb threat; and I'll reveal my moment of awe, some thoughts on why I consider this episode to be one of the scariest in the entire Twilight Zone canon. So, grab your keys, and let's open up this door to the fifth dimension. #twilightzone #thetwilightzone #rodserlingWant to support the KOI show, get extra content, and give money to two awesome charities at the same time?

Jason Statham is back as a retired elite operative with a violent past—and somehow nobody leaves him alone.This week, Clay reviews Shelter (2026), the Jason Statham action thriller now streaming on Prime Video. Is it worth watching, or is it just The Beekeeper with a lighthouse?Clay breaks down the remote-island opening, Statham's one-man war against MI6, the car chase, nightclub fight, familiar action-movie formula and the strange comfort of knowing exactly what a Jason Statham film will deliver. There's also the discovery that Love Island might simply be Jason Statham for women.Elsewhere: Adelaide finally leaves the house, Clay gets mistaken for Taylor “Tex” Walker, pickup artists remain unbearable, Apple's Magic Mouse remains unusable, fatherhood makes seeing your mates nearly impossible, and salt-and-vinegar chips prove themselves to be the perfect island-survival snack.Clay's rating: 6.5/10.Watch or listen to the complete Shelter movie review, then subscribe to Welcome to the Poddy for weekly comedy, film reviews, personal stories and increasingly questionable snack pairings.Bung Bung Coffee: https://bungbungcoffee.comTell a friend to tell a friend.

Nearly 30% of people who experienced homelessness in Clark County last year were children. That’s according to a recent report by the Council for Homelessness, which also found that the percentage of family households stabilized through rent assistance dropped by 5% last year. For families experiencing homelessness in Vancouver, they may have to wait months until a spot becomes available at the few shelters that allow families. The nonprofit Share operates two shelters in Vancouver for families, each with 14 rooms, on-site laundry, a communal kitchen and dining area, and indoor and outdoor play areas for children. As The Columbian recently reported, Share’s shelters have remained at or near capacity for years. Adrianna Kofoed, director of family shelters at Share, says she and her staff have seen increased demand in just the past year, with at least five or six calls a day from parents seeking help for their families. Kofoed joins us to share more details about Share’s family shelters. Also joining us is Gracie White, a mother who has been staying at Share’s Homestead shelter for roughly a month with four of her children.
Today is one of the most incredible episodes of the show I have ever produced. I don't say this lightly. Today, you are going to hear about a new project called Shelter Republic, officially launching although if you are an avid listener, you have probably heard me talking about it as we prepared for launch. Well, it's here, and it's official. And You are going to hear from my co-founder…I'm sitting down with computer engineer and Shelter Republic co-founder Jack Cooperman to discuss the platform's structural architecture, functionality, purpose, and the necessity for safe places to explore ideas amongst peers. The Genesis of Shelter Republic: Jack and I reflect on the evolution of the platform, tracking its roots back to when Jack and his sister first visited Josh on stage at the WestEdge Design Fair. The community was built to bridge regional gaps and provide a collaborative, peer-to-peer ecosystem for architects and designers. Designing UX for Geographic Context: Jack outlines the structure of the platform, which is divided into five nationwide micro-communities (including the Mountain Atlantic and Southwest regions). This allows for highly localized discussions on styles, culture, and business norms while keeping a unified national hub. Cultivating a “Safe Place to Fail”: The co-founders debate the nature of failure in school versus a creative career. Josh emphasizes that Shelter Republic is deliberately engineered as a vetted, invite-only environment to protect accomplished creatives from public “dogpiling” or algorithmic scrutiny when exploring new, untested concepts. Platform Features & Onboarding: Built to avoid user-data exploitation and ad clutter, the platform operates via direct invitation and QR codes. Features include text-based feeds, real-time messaging, direct networking via professional member bios, live video-conferencing rooms, and educational modules—including Josh’s masterclass, Podcasting for Creatives. Addressing Industry Disruptions (AI & Legislation): The conversation dives into how early-career junior designers are transitioning into technology facilitators due to AI studio integration. They also discuss how the platform serves as a “modern town crier” for critical industry news, citing a recent user post by a Southern California designer regarding the engineered quartz ban in California due to silicosis risks. Cooperation Over Competition: Drawing a contrast with the competitive nature of the design world, Josh shares a lesson from his time covering the Playboy Jazz Festival, where legendary jazz musicians prioritized mentoring the next generation to keep the collective genre alive. Shelter Republic aims to foster that exact cross-regional mentorship. Thank you Jack. I know I have already said it, but I have enjoyed every moment putting this together and we are thrilled to share it. Note on Access: Shelter Republic is entirely free, and does not collect user data except when stated like the use of polls and prompts for professional input. To maintain community standards and security, entry is restricted to verified industry professionals via peer invitation or direct QR code scanning at upcoming events.

People experiencing homelessness in Astoria will have to abide by new camping codes going into effect Wednesday, July 15. The changes to the camping codes make it illegal for people to camp knowingly on public property if they have access to “reasonable shelter,” which will be determined on a case-by-case basis. The code also provides exemptions depending on someone’s circumstances.At the same time, Clatsop County budget and funding formula changes mean one of the city’s low-barrier shelters, LiFEBoat, will be seeing major cuts that could lead to a reduction in services and even closure. Osarch Orak is the executive director of the shelter. He joins us to share more on what these camping code changes mean for the nonprofit and the people they serve.
Fitzhugh Brundage, author of A Fate Worse Than Hell, describes how Andersonville became a death camp where 35,000 men were crammed into a space with no shelter and polluted water. Commander Henry Wirz oversaw a site where over 100 men died daily from starvation and disease. After the war, Wirz was prosecuted for war crimes, arguing unsuccessfully that he was only following orders from superiors like Winder. His execution set an international precedent for military accountability and helped shape the future Geneva Conventions. (7)1865
