This Gay Week: The Flag That Annoys The World It's Pride Month, but in some parts of the United States, the United Kingdom, and beyond, flying a Pride flag has become a political statement, a cultural battleground, and sometimes even a target. Why does a rainbow flag generate so much controversy? Is the outrage genuine, or is it being manufactured by politicians, media personalities, and culture-war influencers looking for the next fight? This week, Karel and Scott Jacobsen of The Good Men Project examine the growing backlash against Pride visibility and what it says about LGBTQ rights in 2026. Also on this episode:

Today on Uncommon Sense, we're discussing the tragic state of the modern world.From the protests in Ireland to growing frustration across Western nations, many people feel as though their voices are no longer being heard by the institutions that claim to represent them. I'll share why I support the right of people to protest and why I believe the demonstrations in Ireland have resonated with so many people around the world.We'll also discuss what I see as a deeper spiritual crisis affecting modern society. Many of the political, cultural, and social problems we face today are symptoms of a broader moral and spiritual decline, one that cannot be solved through politics alone.In this episode:My thoughts on the protests in IrelandWhy so many citizens now feel disconnected from their governmentsThe growing divide between ordinary people and powerful institutionsThe role of faith, morality, and personal responsibility in rebuilding societyWhy I believe many of today's crises point to a deeper spiritual battleWhether you agree or disagree, this episode is an invitation to think critically about the direction of our culture, our governments, and our future.--https://www.youversion.com/bible-app

In this episode, we sit down with Dr Tessa Daffern, Founding Co-director of Literacy Education Solutions and Adjunct Associate Professor at La Trobe University, to explore the science of spelling instruction and assessment. Tessa shares her journey in education, unpacks her innovative instructional framework that helps students analyse words through multiple linguistic lenses, and discusses how teachers can effectively assess and teach spelling using evidence-based approaches. We also examine emerging trends from updated CoSTEY and CoST data, practical implications for classroom practice, and where educators can access high-quality resources to strengthen spelling outcomes for students.Recent PublicationsDaffern, T. (2025).

Cómo saber si realmente maduraste… o solo te endureciste

In this special follow-up to the popular episode with Dr. Kent Johnson and Andrew Kieta on the Morningside Model that Guarantees Two Years of Growth in One, host Brendan Lee draws out the practical learning science expertise of university lecturer Dr Russ Fox and MTSS leader Karina Stocker. This conversation bridges the macro principles of the Morningside model directly with the reality of the classroom through the lens of the Instructional Hierarchy. Listeners will hear Karina and Russ break down how to spot the hidden "tool skills" that frequently block student progress in reading and mathematics. They challenge common misconceptions about explicit instruction, detailing why the "We Do" phase must be a dynamic, data-driven interaction to build accurate acquisition. Plus, they share how to transition students into fluency building by measuring the rate of correct responses rather than simple percentages. If you're keen to delve deeper into the key mechanisms behind the Morningside Model of Generative Instruction and more, then this conversation is essential listening.

Happy Mother's Day to all of the incredible mothers out there. Today's episode is a deeper conversation about the urgent need for stronger, more biblical men and women in our culture, people willing to stand for truth, protect the vulnerable, and refuse to stay silent in the face of evil.We discuss the ongoing outrage surrounding the Epstein files, the lack of accountability for powerful people, and the broader cultural failure to protect victims from wicked and predatory individuals. But this conversation goes beyond headlines. It's about morality, courage, justice, faith, and what happens when societies stop valuing strong families, strong character, and biblical principles.This episode is ultimately about hope too, because evil does not win forever. Real justice matters, truth matters, and good people still have a responsibility to speak up.

Lindsay Jurist-Rosner, Co-Founder and CEO of Wellthy, and Stephan Dolling, AVP of Global Benefits & Well-being at Merck, joined us on The Modern People Leader. We talked about the rising pressures facing working families and what companies can do to support their employees that are caregivers.----  Sponsor Links:

Laxmi Tiwari, a folk singer from Rampur in Palpa, is known for her knowledge of traditional songs from Nepal's Gandaki region. She performs a range of culturally significant genres popular within Brahmin and Chhetri communities, including Magal, Uwali, Ratyauli, Balan and Silok. Recently gaining wider recognition as “Tiwari Aama” after her songs garnered engagement on YouTube, she is also known for spontaneously composing and performing her own lyrics. Her songs reflecting the lives of Nepali migrants have also resonated with audiences beyond Nepal. During a Ratyauli workshop in Pokhara last November, Nepal correspondent Sewa Bhattarai spoke with Tiwari about these fading musical traditions. - नेपालको गण्डकी क्षेत्रमा पाइने लोकगीतकी एकजना जानकार तथा ब्राह्मण क्षेत्री समुदायमा प्रचलित मागल, उवाली, रत्यौली, बालन, सिलोक लगायतका गीतमा गायिका रामपुर, पाल्पाकी लक्ष्मी तिवारी आजकाल व्यस्त छिन्। पछिल्लो समयमा उनले गाएका गीतहरू युट्युबमा आउन थालेपछि उनी “तिवारी आमा”का नामले चर्चित हुन थालेकी हुन्। तिवारीले एकैछिनमा आफ्नै शब्द रचना गरेर गीत गाउने गर्छिन् भने उनले आप्रवासी नेपालीका बारेमा बनाएका गीतका कारण उनी नेपालबाहिर पनि लोकप्रिय बनेकी छिन्। गत नोभेम्बर महिनामा पोखरामा आयोजना गरिएको रत्यौली सम्बन्धी कार्यशालामा नेपाल संवाददाता सेवा भट्टराईले उनलाई भेटेर यो क्षेत्रका लोपोन्मुख गीतहरूका बारेमा गर्नुभएको कुराकानी सुन्नुहोस्।

When "love" is used as a weapon and "reputation" becomes a motive. This episode explores the devastating phenomenon of honor killings—a practice that turns family members into foes under the guise of tradition. We're looking at the psychology behind the act, the cultural pressures that fuel it, and why justice is so often hard to find when the crime is kept within the house.Research links below!The Guardian - "Banaz Mahmod was murdered 20 years ago; the fight for a law on 'honour'-based abuse goes on"BBC News - "Banaz Mahmod 'honour' killing cousins jailed for life"Fuuse - "Banaz A Love Story""Criminology Knowledge Organiser: The Case of Banaz Mahmod"The Guardian - "'Honour killings?

This episode dives into the controversy surrounding Jaden Ivey's outspoken beliefs, asking whether his bold stance is misguided or a genuine stand for faith in today's culture. Drawing parallels to John the Baptist, the discussion explores what it means to speak truth publicly, the cost of doing so, and how society responds when convictions clash with mainstream values. Is this reckless behavior—or a call to repentance that people aren't ready to hear? Luke 3:7-20Galatians 1:10

A controversial courtroom decision is raising serious questions about the future of justice in America. Following the killing of NYPD officer Jonathan Diller, a jury chose not to convict on first-degree murder—despite eyewitness testimony and video evidence. Now, critics are warning of a growing trend: jury nullification. Some argue activist movements are influencing jurors, while others say it's a long-standing legal principle meant to protect against unjust laws. So what's really happening inside America's courtrooms—and what does it mean for law enforcement, public safety, and the justice system itself?

While the podcast team is taking a Radical Sabbatical, Kim is interviewing authors of the books that have had a big impact on her in the past two years. Wealth concentration in the United States is top of mind these days. While it's tempting to see this as a recent trend, it is instructive to look at what was happening in American politics decades ago and see how many of these forces were set in motion in the 1970's.  Kim talks with Prof. David Gibbs about his book, Revolt of the Rich, How the Politics of the 1970s Widened America's Class Divide. Prof. Gibbs reviews decisions that were made during the Nixon and Carter administrations that continue to reverberate in our world today.  For example, during the first oil shock in the early 1970s, President Nixon actively worked to keep oil prices high to support the Shah of Iran and to prop up the dollar.  The result was financialization and deindustrialization. Later in the decade, President Carter was central to the trend of deregulation.  The net effect of these decisions was an erosion of the foundations of the American middle class.  Technical note: we had an issue with one of the microphones on this interview that affected the sound quality.  Sorry if this affects your enjoyment of this episode. Background on David Gibbs: David N. Gibbs is professor of history at the University of Arizona, whose past research has emphasized political conflicts in Sub-Saharan Africa, Eastern Europe, and Afghanistan. He has published extensively in academic journals as well as the London Guardian, Los Angeles Times, Christian Science Monitor, Le Monde Diplomatique, Salon, and Jacobin. His third and most recent book is entitled: Revolt of the Rich: How the Politics of the 1970s Widened America's Class Divide.

5. Headline: Living Newspapers and Suppressed Voices Guest Author: James Shapiro The "Living Newspaper" format used fact-based drama to address social issues like the national housing crisis. Productions such as *One-Third of a Nation* were popular with the public but drew ire from mocked senators who saw their own words used against them on stage. While the project pushed boundaries, it also faced internal censorship; for instance, the play *Liberty Deferred*, a sardonic history of American racism and lynching, was suppressed by white supervisors. Despite its innovative approach to telling the story of the 1619 project precursors, it was never performed. (5)

6. Guest Author: James Shapiro James Shapiro discusses "Living Newspapers," such as *One-Third of a Nation*, which used fact-based accounts to tackle social issues like the housing crisis. These productions angered powerful real estate interests and senators whose own words were often mocked on stage. Shapiro also highlights *Liberty Deferred*, a sardonic play about the history of American racism and lynching. Despite its brilliance and factual basis, white supervisors "slow-walked" the script for years. Consequently, the play was never staged before the Federal Theater was shuttered by the government in 1939. (6)1921
