In this episode, Rivers and Carter are hanging out at Disgraceland with one of our all-time favorite guests, comedian Nicole Yates! We tart this one off with a wild story of a recent family bonding experience in West Georgi in which a father and son teamed up for a drive-by shooting. We also sample an awful energy water called "Orka," and talk about its incredibly eco-friendly packaging. There's an update on the never-ending fall of "America's Job," MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell. Plus, Rivers tells the story of Charles Mallory Hatfield, a con artist from the early 1900s who made a fortune by claiming he could summon rain in Southern California. "I Can't Go for That (No Can Do) by Hall and Oates is our JAM OF THE WEEK! Tune in now, folks!

The Tim Conway Jr. Show Hour 1 (6.16) In this episode, we’re diving into some of the biggest, boldest, and most talked-about stories making waves right now. First, five people have been arrested after the FBI reportedly foiled a shocking drone and sniper plot connected to White House Fight Night. Then, we welcome World Cup fans to America as visitors praise the country’s beauty and the kindness of Americans. While local news often focuses on what is wrong, today we’re taking a moment to say: be proud of this country. Next, we head to the coast to talk about great white shark nurseries, where the hot spots are, and why California could see a major surge in sharks with El Niño conditions on the way. From shark bite power to why sharks usually reject humans as prey, we break down the fascinating facts behind one of the ocean’s most misunderstood predators. We also talk emergency preparedness as tectonic stress along Southern California’s San Andreas and San Jacinto fault systems reaches alarming levels. Get water. Store water. Be ready. And to close things out, West Hollywood gets a fresh new nightlife destination with the opening of SweetWater, a new lesbian bar bringing community, culture, and celebration to WeHo.

We've been told forever that women are the only natural caregivers, but neuroscience shows that's just not true; men actually go through huge biological shifts when they become dads, too.Sitting down with Emily for this episode is clinical psychologist Darby Saxbe, who chats to us about her book Dad Brain: The New Science of Fatherhood and How It Shapes Men's Lives, which challenges neo-traditional assumptions about parenting roles. Their conversation highlights the biological reality of fatherhood, exploring how men experience hormonal shifts, brain changes, and even paternal postpartum depression. Darby also uncovers how hands-on parenting trends are shifting across generations, the connection between relationship conflict and a dad's mental health, and how policy changes like paid paternity leave can transform modern family dynamics.Listen and Learn:How the modern science of fatherhood rewrites traditional gender roles, why the "Dad Brain" is biologically wired for caregiving, and how millennial and Gen Z fathers are redefining the rewards and divides of modern parentingThe concept of "facultative adaptation" and how it shapes the natural variability of fatherhood How a father's brain and body prepare for parenthood during pregnancyHow a couple's relationship conflict during pregnancy can directly impact the labor and delivery experience Why the prenatal period is a critical window for couples to proactively strengthen their communication, navigate relationship shifts, and better manage the stress and emotional toll of childbirth and early parenthood The ways postpartum depression manifests in new dads How a father's hormone levels naturally drop after birth and why high testosterone can unexpectedly strain romantic relationships and parenting The unique benefits of the father-child relationship Why we need to view men's mental health through a family lens How progressive policy shifts are working to empower and destigmatize active fatherhood Resources: Dad Brain: The New Science of Fatherhood and How It Shapes Men's Lives https://bookshop.org/a/30734/9781250387523 Darby's Website: https://www.darbysaxbe.comDarby's Substack: https://darbysaxbe.substack.comConnect with Darby on Social Media: https://www.linkedin.com/in/darbysaxbehttps://www.instagram.com/darbysaxbephd/Behind Every Dad Bod is a Healthy Dad Brain https://www.nytimes.com/2026/06/06/opinion/dad-brain-health-fatherhood.htmlAbout Darby SaxbeDarby Saxbe, PhD, is a clinical psychologist and tenured full professor of psychology at the University of Southern California.She has published over eighty scientific articles in peer-reviewed journals and secured major research grants from the National Institutes of Health and National Science Foundation.

The 72 files released on Friday don’t include the kind of blockbuster revelation that Trump has teased. There’s no conclusive evidence of alien life or government cover-ups. But the files reveal new details about some recent sightings, along with the government's efforts to explain what many find inexplicable. During an interview with NOTUS published Monday, California Democrat Robert Garcia said that “in the last few months, it feels like Republicans have decided that they’re done.” Garcia also said House Democrats would work to subpoena Vice President Vance regarding his involvement in the handling of the Epstein files. Stress along the San Andreas and San Jacinto faults in Southern California has reached the highest levels in 1,000 years, according to new research from the University of Hawaii at Manoa. Since 1933, Tower Optical has built the cast-iron binocular viewers that sit atop landmarks from the Grand Canyon to the Empire State Building, letting generations of visitors press their eyes to the lenses and peer across skylines, waterfalls and scenic vistas.

Jim Hill and Len Testa start with Monstropolis, Disney park capacity, Universal patents, and the sort of tequila event that makes you check whether your Epcot admission is included. Then Jim looks back at Disneyland's very first Grad Nite, held on June 15, 1961, when 8,500 well-dressed seniors were locked inside the park until 4:30 a.m. Along the way, they cover Life magazine's lost photo spread, chaperone lounges, forbidden long hair, and the timeless teenage urge to stash contraband somewhere near Autopia. It is history, logistics, and questionable decision-making, which is to say: high school. NEWS • Monstropolis details reveal “Human Day,” a walking route inspired by Mike and Sulley's commute, and Disney's growing fondness for “you're invited to a special day” ride premises. • Grand Floridian Cafe closes July 19 for refurbishment, raising the important question of whether the menu gets more than new curtains. • La Cava del Tequila hosts a July 14 Epcot event with tastings, cocktails, lunch at San Angel Inn, and a commemorative 1982 menu. • Disneyland restores all-day park hopping, while early signs of DisneylandForward construction point toward a new parking structure and future DCA expansion. • Listener questions cover theme park capacity math, House of Mouse villains, Monstropolis pin trading, and whether Universal's latest patents could make vending machines and park transportation a lot smarter. FEATURE • Jim traces how Disneyland's original Grad Nite grew out of Walt's decision to close Holidayland and Jack Lindquist's search for a new after-hours revenue stream. • The first Grad Nite brought 8,500 students from 28 Southern California high schools to Disneyland for $6 each, or about $67 in today's money. • Life magazine sent four photographers and shot thousands of photos, only to bump the planned spread when the Berlin Wall changed the news cycle. • Disneyland's Grad Nite rules included school buses, dress codes, chaperones, locker checks, planter searches, and haircuts for boys whose hair dared to touch a collar.

Then, in his early fifties, he had a wake-up call. It sent him to look under a rock he'd never lifted, where he found “an absolute cavern of issues.” The result is his sixth book, The Future is Grey: The Untapped Value of Age in the Workforce. Dan lays out the coming “bell to bulb” demographic inversion and the risks for organizations ignoring it. For individuals, he reframes the whole arc of a working life, from the language of generations (which he rejects as an ageist cognitive bias) to three universal career eras: Rivers, Rocks, and Rubies. That demographic inversion means experience will become more scarce and valuable. The through-line is don’t retire,  rewire instead. He shares stories of people who kept working or returned to work in a different way, which brings his concept of the “experience dividend” to life. ________________________ Bio Dan Pontefract is a renowned leadership and culture strategist, author, and keynote speaker with over two decades of experience in senior executive roles at companies such as SAP, TELUS, and Business Objects. Since then, he has worked with organizations globally, including Salesforce, Amgen, State of Tennessee, Nestlé, Canada Post, Autodesk, BMO, Government of Canada, Manulife, Nutrien, UBC, McGill University, Virgin Media O2, City of Toronto, among others. Dan has firsthand experience in turning leaders and corporate cultures into a competitive advantage. In addition to The Future of Work Is Grey, Dan has written five other books: WORK-LIFE BLOOM, LEAD. CARE. WIN., OPEN TO THINK, THE PURPOSE EFFECT, and FLAT ARMY garnering multiple awards including the Thinkers50 Top New Management Book and the Axiom Business Book Awards Gold Medal. Dan has also written for Forbes, Harvard Business Review, Leader to Leader, The Globe and Mail, Inc., among other outlets. Dan is a renowned keynote speaker who has presented at four TED events and delivered over 600 keynotes. He is an adjunct professor at the University of Victoria and has received over 25 personal awards. Dan’s career is interwoven with corporate and academic experience, coupled with an MBA, B.Ed, and multiple distinctions. Notably, Dan is listed on the Thinkers50 Radar, HR Weekly’s 100 Most Influential People in HR, PeopleHum’s Top 200 Thought Leaders to Follow, and Inc. Magazine’s Top 100 Leadership Speakers. ___________________________ The Future is Grey: The Untapped Value of Age in the Workforce Website ___________________________ Other Retirement Podcast Conversations You’ll Love The Second Curve of Life – Arthur C.

Share it:Alice Kao on daily authorship, childhood trauma, and six climbing gyms.When Alice Kao was three years old, her mother walked out the door carrying two large suitcases and did not turn around. When she was fourteen, her mother dropped her off alone in America near a school with some cash and left. Alice spent the next thirty years running a story about what that meant , that she was not smart enough, not pretty enough, not worth staying for. That story became the engine. It drove her through surviving alone as a teenager in a country where she did not belong, through a devastating heartbreak in Hong Kong, through building Sender One Climbing into six locations across Southern California and raising six million dollars from 115 community investors.Then she found out the way she interpreted her story was dead wrong. The facts were not what she had believed for thirty years. The wound was real. The story was not.And the voice that generated it is still there every single morning. It still wants to tell that story.If you have ever woken up and felt the weight of a story you cannot shake,  the one that says you are not smart enough, not ready, not worth the room you are about to walk into , this episode is the one you need to hear. Because Alice did not heal the wound. She built a daily discipline around deciding what it means. Every morning she chooses who is at the keyboard through authorship and it is the most underrated business skill a founder can develop. Write your own story.In this episode we go into the phone call that broke the story open, the morning practice Alice has built around narrative authorship, and why imposter syndrome does not have to be gone before you can build something extraordinary.About Alice KaoAlice discovered climbing while living and working in London in 2008, following a difficult breakup. She was inspired by the healing and self-discovery that climbing brought her, which led her to co-found Sender One in 2011 upon returning to the United States with her business partners.Alice hates following rules but loves rallying people to believe in an idea.  She wears her heart on her sleeve and is not afraid to cry in meetings.  She was born and raised in Taiwan and moved to the US when she was 14.  Alice's superpower is her ability to ask for help relentlessly, because no one has all the answers!Connect with Alice KaoWebsite | LinkedIn_____________________We appreciate you, thank you for listening.

AP correspondent Jennifer King reports on a military plane crash in California.

“As early as 1805, you had orators getting up there — barely twenty years after American independence was recognised by Great Britain — saying: the Republic is over. We've had it. So there is a tradition of calling it the end times.” — Nathan Perl-Rosenthal It's less than three weeks until America's big birthday bash. But what exactly will be celebrated this 250th Independence Day? In The Long Revolution: Creating a United States After 1776, the historian Nathan Perl-Rosenthal read some 2,500 July 4 orations delivered in the hundred years after independence. And what he found is that most Americans didn't believe that the revolution was really over. Orators often unfavourably compared the American Revolution to the French, Spanish American, and European revolutions of 1830 and 1848. They argued bitterly about slavery. As late as the 1870s, leading orators were insisting that the revolution was unfinished because the truths of the Declaration of Independence had not yet been fully worked out. Fast forward to 2026 and Perl-Rosenthal suggests a return to the kind of sustained public dialogue that the oratorical tradition once represented. So put down your smartphones on July 4 and tell the world where America currently is and where it should go. The act of oration, Perl-Rosenthal suggests, is not just a civic act, but essential to the country's long revolutionary tradition. So happy birthday America. And many many more. Five Takeaways •       100,000 Orations: The Archive Nobody Knew About: In the first century after independence, an estimated 100,000 July 4 orations were delivered across the United States — roughly a thousand towns and villages, each holding an annual address for a hundred years. Of those, 2,500 survive in published form as pamphlets, now collected in a digital database at fourthofjulyorations.org. These are not peripheral documents. They were delivered by the most prominent public figures of their day — lawyers, clergymen, politicians — before large audiences. They are among the richest sources we have for what ordinary Americans actually thought about their revolution and their republic. •       The Revolution Was Ongoing: Most Orators Believed This Well Into the 1870s: The single most striking finding of Perl-Rosenthal's research: most orators, deep into the nineteenth century, did not regard the revolution as a completed historical event. They saw themselves not as commemorating it but as participating in it. As late as the 1870s, leading orators were insisting the revolution remained unfinished. One orator in Boston in 1870, in a debate about immigration policy and Chinese exclusion, argued that the revolution could not be over because the inalienable rights proclaimed in the Declaration had not yet been universally extended. The parallel to the immigration debates of 2026 is, Perl-Rosenthal suggests, striking. •       The Orations Were Critical, Not Triumphalist: Perl-Rosenthal went into the archive expecting, as he puts it, “rah America.” He found something quite different. Many orators compared the American Revolution unfavourably to other revolutions: to the French in the 1790s, to Spanish American revolutions in the 1810s and 1820s, to the European revolutions of 1830 and 1848. The comparisons often did not flatter America. Wealthy Bostonians giving the prestigious Boston oration — one of the oldest and most prominent in the country — would argue explicitly that the founders had failed to deal with slavery. The critical tradition was mainstream, not marginal. •       1876 as the Turning Point: When the Tradition Died: The July 4 oration tradition effectively ended after 1876. That year, Congress for the first time asked towns and cities to deliver historical rather than political orations — accounts of local history rather than arguments about the present. A tenfold increase in orations was followed by a rapid collapse of the tradition. The shift was significant: from argument to commemoration, from an ongoing political conversation to a museum piece. The practice of serious sustained public political dialogue — an hour or more, in public, about the state of the republic — has not recovered. •       A Low, Dishonest Period: What the Tradition Offers Now: Mark Lilla's blurb: “a low, dishonest period in our history. This surprisingly timely book reminds us of our responsibilities.” Perl-Rosenthal is not catastrophist about the current moment — he notes that orators were calling it the end times as early as 1805. But he is clear about what is missing: a forum for sustained public argument about where America is and where it should go. The smartphone generation, he acknowledges, is unlikely to sit through an hour-long oration. That, he suggests, is precisely the problem. About the Guest Nathan Perl-Rosenthal is a professor of history, French and Italian, and law at the University of Southern California.

She Was Raped in Hollywood. Then Sailboat Trials at Sea, the Book, and the Movie. How One Woman Turned Trauma, Survival, and Heartbreak Into a Story of Reinvention. Life rarely follows the script people imagine. The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast social media like their Facebook , Instagram , LinkedIn , Medium and other social media platforms. For Angela Harger Thompson is our guest. What began as a promising life in Southern California became a journey marked by trauma, survival, adventure, heartbreak, and ultimately transformation. Her story now reaches audiences through a book, a documentary movie, social media, and appearances on Podcast and Radio platforms across the country. The Podcast is available for free on the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast website, also on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube, iHeartradio and most major podcast platforms. #LawEnforcementTalk #Free #Podcast #Radio Today, Angela speaks openly about a devastating sexual assault that altered the course of her life and the extraordinary experiences that followed. Supporting articles about this and much more from Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast in platforms like Medium , Blogspot and Linkedin. Her story is one of resilience, truth-telling, and finding purpose after unimaginable pain. She Was Raped in Hollywood Before the sailboat adventures, before the documentary film, and before writing her memoir, Angela endured a traumatic experience that would leave lasting emotional scars. She says she was drugged and sexually assaulted by someone she knew. The show is inspiring audiences through the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, Apple, Spotify, iHeartradio and and many Podcast platforms. Like millions of women across America, Angela found herself confronting the painful reality of sexual violence. According to national studies, millions of women in the United States have experienced sexual assault while intoxicated, drugged, or otherwise incapacitated. In many cases, perpetrators use alcohol or drugs to make victims vulnerable, confused, unable to resist, or unable to remember what happened. She Was Raped in Hollywood. Then Sailboat Trials at Sea, the Book, and the Movie. "The hardest part wasn't just surviving it," Angela has explained. "It was learning how to live afterward." The emotional impact followed her for years. The betrayal, loss of trust, and trauma shaped many of the decisions that came next in her life. An Invitation That Changed Everything As she struggled to rebuild, a friend offered what seemed like an incredible opportunity. The episode is available across major platforms including their website, Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube, with highlights shared across their Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn profiles. A sailboat voyage across the Pacific Ocean. It sounded like adventure. It sounded like freedom. It sounded like a chance to start over. Angela accepted. What she couldn't know was that the journey would soon become one of the most challenging experiences of her life. She Was Raped in Hollywood. Then Sailboat Trials at Sea, the Book, and the Movie. Available for free on the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast website, also on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Youtube and most major Podcast networks. The Sailboat Trials at Sea In March 2020, Angela boarded a sailboat in Panama alongside five crew members and one beloved sea dog. The plan was simple: cross the Pacific Ocean and explore some of the world's most beautiful destinations. Then the world changed. Just one week into the voyage, news arrived through satellite communications. COVID-19 had become a global pandemic. Borders were closing. Governments were implementing restrictions. Ports were refusing entry. Entire nations were shutting down. Suddenly, the crew found themselves isolated in the middle of the Pacific Ocean with no clear destination and no certainty about what awaited them. She Was Raped in Hollywood. Then Sailboat Trials at Sea, the Book, and the Movie. The Podcast is available for free on the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast website, also on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube, iHeartradio and most major podcast platforms. "It felt like the world disappeared overnight," Angela recalled. As the pandemic spread, tensions aboard the vessel increased. Relationships became strained. What had begun as a dream adventure gradually evolved into a test of endurance, trust, and survival. The relationship with her sailing companion deteriorated, creating additional emotional challenges while trapped thousands of miles from shore. The experience would later become the foundation for a documentary film. The Movie: Quarantine at Sea Angela eventually transformed her extraordinary experience into a documentary movie titled Quarantine at Sea. The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast continues bringing listeners real conversations from the front lines of crime, policing, trauma, survival, and healing. The film follows the crew's journey as they navigate the uncertainty of a world suddenly consumed by fear and restrictions. Facing closed borders, changing government regulations, and limited options for safe harbor, the sailors were forced to make difficult decisions while isolated at sea. She Was Raped in Hollywood. Then Sailboat Trials at Sea, the Book, and the Movie. The documentary resonated with audiences because it captured something universal. Everyone remembers where they were when the world shut down. Very few experienced it from the middle of the Pacific Ocean. "People think it's a sailing story," Angela said. "But it's really a story about uncertainty, resilience, and what happens when everything you thought was stable suddenly disappears." The complete interview is available as a Free Podcast on Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, Apple Podcasts, Spotify, LinkedIn, and major podcast platforms. The Book: Worst Tits Ever Angela's story didn't end with the documentary. She expanded her experiences into a deeply personal memoir titled Worst Tits Ever. Released in 2026, the book chronicles her journey through trauma, heartbreak, faith, survival, loss, and personal reinvention. The memoir explores not only her experience stranded at sea during COVID-19 but also the emotional battles that shaped her long before stepping aboard the sailboat. Blending humor with vulnerability, the book offers readers an unfiltered look at how one woman confronted adversity and found strength in unexpected places. She Was Raped in Hollywood. Then Sailboat Trials at Sea, the Book, and the Movie. "It isn't just about survival," she explained. "It's about learning who you are when everything familiar is stripped away." Hear her story on: Apple Podcasts Spotify YouTube Facebook Instagram The memoir is available in print, digital, and audiobook formats. Helping Others Tell Their Stories Following the success of her documentary and memoir, Angela discovered a new mission. Helping others tell their own stories. Through her Storytell Initiative Course, she teaches aspiring writers, speakers, and creators how to transform personal experiences into meaningful artistic works. Whether through books, documentaries, films, speaking engagements, or digital content, her goal is to help people find their voice. Listeners can hear the complete interview on Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, Apple Podcasts, Spotify, iHeartRadio, and other major Podcast, Radio, News, and Media platforms. "Everyone has a story," she says. "Many people just need help discovering how to tell it." Her work focuses on authenticity, healing, and connection. She believes stories have the power to change lives. Her own journey serves as proof. Life After Trauma Today, Angela lives in Southern California with her husband. She enjoys acting, studying improv, rollerblading, hiking, and exploring the California coast. Her life looks very different from the one she imagined years ago. Yet every chapter, including the painful ones, helped shape the person she became. From surviving sexual assault to navigating the uncertainty of the pandemic at sea, Angela's story demonstrates the remarkable resilience of the human spirit. She Was Raped in Hollywood. Then Sailboat Trials at Sea, the Book, and the Movie. It is a story that continues to inspire audiences through Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, Apple Podcasts, Spotify, LinkedIn, and other Podcast and social media platforms. Through her book, her movie, and her public speaking, she reminds others that even the most painful experiences do not have to define the future. Sometimes the most powerful stories emerge from the darkest storms. And sometimes surviving the storm becomes the story itself.

Send us Fan MailToday's show is going to be a little different. Usually, I interview professionals who are law enforcement, military, or victims of crimes. Today, I will interview a man who was a criminal. This is a story of second chances and what can be accomplished after making a mistake.Today on the show, I have Owen Hanson, whose life story was featured in the Mark Wahlberg production documentary, Cocaine Quarterback, available on Amazon Prime. Owen is a California kid whose mother left him and his father at a young age. He grew up playing volleyball and earned a scholarship to play at the University of Southern California. In his sophomore year, he was essentially cut from the team. His coach told him to get bigger and improve his vertical leap. So, Owen worked out six days a week, twice a week, and made it as a walk-on to the football team. He also took performance-enhancing drugs in his quest to become stronger and faster. This kid, who came from a modest middle-class broken home, was now partying with rock stars and other celebrities. He was also the team's and campus's drug dealer. After graduation, he wound up working as a bookie, money launderer, and associate with a Mexican drug cartel. At one point, he was making over a million dollars a day until it all came crashing down on him. He was tried and sentenced to 21 years in federal prison. Through a cooperation agreement with the Australian government, he was released after nine years. While he was in prison, he started a frozen protein product that he is now selling as a free man. Owen made a mistake, paid the price, and is now reinventing himself.

We're kicking off our new retrospective series, John Carpenter: The Shape of Dread, with a two-part look at ASSAULT ON PRECINCT 13. This week, we examine the early life and formative influences of John Carpenter, tracking his upbringing and his time at the University of Southern California before he jumped into his second feature assignment. We break down the initial development of the script and how Carpenter adapted classic Western tropes for a contemporary, urban landscape. We also follow the production timeline through the logistics of securing financing and assembling the essential cast and crew, including the casting of Austin Stoker and Darwin Joston. Part 2 drops next week, covering the chaotic shoot and the film's enduring legacy.

As Halle Stanford drove through Topanga Canyon in Southern California, with Dolly Parton blasting from the car speakers, she was struck by a moment of inspiration. “I had this vision of a little hedgehog on the side of the road in her little pink hiking boots, with her guitar in her bag, out to find the wows of the world,” says Stanford, an independent television producer. A few days later, she came across research from UC Berkeley's Greater Good Science Center showing that awe — the emotion we experience when we encounter vast mysteries that we don't understand — inspires us to care for the planet and one another. “And I was like, ‘Bingo, that's it.'”That connection became the basis for Wowsabout, a new Jim Henson Company puppet preschool special on PBS designed to bring awe to young audiences. Created by Stanford and puppeteer Dorien Davies, the 30-minute special maps the journeys of Roxy, a free-spirited hedgehog, and Ronald, a fastidious city pig, as they explore Sequoia National Park. Together, they experience moments of awe, like when standing beneath towering Sequoias and watching migrating California tortoiseshell butterflies. And they meet others along the way, including Pekan, a puppet representing the endangered southern Sierra Nevada fisher who guides them to see historic pictographs carved into the park's rock formations. Awe isn't a luxury emotion, but an evolutionary necessity, says Dacher Keltner, a Berkeley psychology professor and the founding director of the Greater Good Science Center. “It makes kids kinder, it makes kids more creative. … Awe really helps kids stay curious, and be in love with big ideas.”Keltner has studied the science of awe for more than a decade, and in 2023 published the book Awe: The New Science of Everyday Wonder and How It Can Transform Your Life. He served as a science consultant and co-executive producer for Wowsabout. In this episode of Berkeley Talks, Stanford and Davies join Keltner and others from the Greater Good Science Center — education director Vicki Zakrzewski and parenting program director Maryam Abdullah — in a talk moderated by Sarah Bracken, education outreach and school partnerships manager at the center. The group discusses the logistical hurdles of translating wonder into film and why cultivating everyday curiosity has become an essential antidote to modern social disconnection. The conversation took place on May 13 and was hosted by the Greater Good Science Center. Watch a video of the panel discussion.

Our guest today, Bill Hardgrave, has had a remarkable career. After graduating with his PhD from Oklahoma State in Information Systems, he moved to the University of Arkansas where he developed a passion for Radio Frequency Identification, perhaps better known as RFID. After spending 17 years with this intense research focus, Bill's career shifted into academic leadership as he was tapped to become Dean of what is now known as the Raymond J. Harbert College of Business at the Auburn University.  This was an abrupt shift for Bill as he had little of the traditional academic leadership background that we often think precedes these key administrative appointments. During his 7 and half year tenure, Bill was quite successful, and in January of 2018 Auburn tapped him to become Provost, a role he filled admirably during those stressful COVID years. As of April 2026, Bill will have completed four years as President of the University of Memphis.  Over the years, Bill has developed a distinct leadership philosophy, and shares several insights with us today, among them: - his journey from an Arkansas lab to the Dean's desk- the importance of relationships to successful leadership- messaging to a shifting population- the importance of team building and how to form effective teams- maintaining vs buildingLearn more about Bill Hardgrave.Comments/criticism/suggestions/feedback?

In the early evening of October 19, 1970, police and firefighters were called to the Santa Cruz County home of Dr. Victor Ohta, a well-respected ophthalmologist, for a report of a house fire. Intending to siphon water from the pool out back, firefighters ran a hose from the truck to the backyard. However, when they reached the pool, the made a horrible discovery—floating in the pool were the bodies of Mr. and Mrs. Ohta, as well as their two children, and the doctor's secretary, Dorothy Cadwallader. When they searched the scene, investigators discovered a cryptic note stuck under the windshield wiper of Victor Ohta's car that made references to the occult and the counterculture movement. At the time of the murders, Southern California was experiencing an unprecedented wave of violent murders by multiple serial and spree killers, as well as the notorious murders committed by the Manson family. Given the content of the note and the potentially ritualistic way in which the Ohta family had been killed, investigators and residents couldn't help but fear that they may have another murderous cult on their hands.

Conway Jr Show Hour 2 (6.10) Conway kicks off the hour with a sweet story about checking into hotels and why you should always add your name to the reservation. For Conway, one hotel moment became unforgettable when Lakers legend James Worthy shared how much Tim Conway and The Carol Burnett Show meant to him. It was a reminder that great comedy does not just make people laugh — it stays with them. Then the crew gets into a wild Southern California school prank after nearly 200 doors were glued shut at Patrick Henry High School in San Diego right as finals week ramped up. That brings back memories of prank stores, itching powder, and Conway’s brother causing chaos on school desks. Later, the hour turns serious with dangerous surf in Laguna Beach, where a mother and her two children were swept into the ocean near Treasure Island Beach. The powerful swell created dangerous conditions across Orange County beaches, with one teen girl still missing. The hour wraps with a lighter look at foreign FIFA fans discovering American culture ahead of the World Cup — from Big Gulps and Taco Bell to the ultimate American obsession: ranch dressing. Because in the U.S., we put ranch on everything.

Moving from wholesaling to heavy house flipping sounds like a natural evolution, but the operational reality can look like a trash can on fire. In this segment, the guys talk about the stark cash conversion differences between wholesaling and flipping, the brutal carrying costs of $100K+ monthly overhead, and a terrifying story about a midnight run-in at a flip site. They also share a $40,000 lesson on why relying on standard assignments can leave you exposed, and why they legally mandate concurrent double-closes (A-to-B, B-to-C) on nearly all of their Southern California real estate transactions.

Has Western culture merely forgotten God, or is the problem even deeper? In his remarkable new book The Desecration of Man, Dr. Carl Trueman argues that we have reached a new point in which culture has not only rejected God, but now desecrates Him. We can see this in the "shout your abortion" movement or the reveling in the mistreatment of immigrants. In this episode, Carl discusses the common thread of dehumanizing people that we see in the Sexual Revolution, technology, and how Christians approach death.Dr. Carl R. Trueman is Professor of Biblical and Religious Studies at Grove City College in Grove City, Pennsylvania. He earned an MA in Classics from the University of Cambridge, and a Ph.D. in Church History from the University of Aberdeen. He is the author or editor of over a dozen books, and is the co-host of “The Mortification of Spin” podcast.==========Think Biblically: Conversations on Faith and Culture is a podcast from Talbot School of Theology at Biola University, which offers degrees both online and on campus in Southern California.   Find all episodes of Think Biblically at: https://www.biola.edu/think-biblically.   To submit comments, ask questions, or make suggestions on issues you'd like us to cover or guests you'd like us to have on the podcast, email us at thinkbiblically@biola.edu.
