Bomani Jones is joined by Jason England for the fourth and final episode of a historical retrospective series looking back at Colin Kaepernick, a decade after his initial protest. In this episode, Bo and Jason wrap up the discussion by exploring whether Kaepernick's action sparked a lasting movement or was simply a moment in time. They reflect on the public silence Kaepernick maintained after 2017 and question how it impacted his role as a public figure and a symbol of resistance. The duo delves into the role of social media in modern activism, detailing how corporate co-optation, hollow platitudes, and performative "slacktivism" diluted the energy of the post-George Floyd and post-Kaepernick era. They trace how sports media shifted back to a narrow focus on the games, effectively squeezing out the general sports columnists and voices trying to enforce moral clarity. Ultimately, Bo and Jason evaluate the fading public interest in Kaepernick, the rise of a reactionary societal backlash, and the complex, ongoing struggle defining athlete activism a decade later . . .

What if courage in creativity has nothing to do with feeling brave and everything to do with being willing to be unmistakably yourself?In this latest episode of The Spark Sessions: Resourcing for Creativity, Rachel begins with a song she did not want to write. After forcing herself through three lifeless love songs, she finally surrendered to the one that felt too personal, too strange, and too exposing. It became the work that carried the most truth.That experience opens a deeper exploration of creative courage, one of the five essential resources for creativity. Rachel challenges the belief that we need confidence before we create, reframing courage as the fortitude to make what is ours even when self-doubt is loud. She offers a surprising way to relate to the inner critic, not as proof that the work is wrong, but as a possible sign that something meaningful is at stake. From there, perfectionism comes into focus as another subtle force that can make creativity smaller, safer, and less alive.With reflections on identity, risk, mistakes, and creative relationships, this episode asks a more intimate question: what becomes possible when we stop trying to make the right thing and give ourselves permission to make the thing that is truly ours?Ready to discover your unique creative landscape?Download the Muzi app at http://itunes.apple.com/app/id6739667782 to take the Creativity Assessment, and uncover your Spark profile. Then email your Spark to Rachel at rachel@rachelefron.com for a chance at a Spark Reading, where Rachel will offer personalized insight into what your creativity most needs from you right now.Sparks of Insight:Creative courage is not confidence. It is the willingness to make what is yours, even when you feel uncertain, exposed, or afraid.The song Rachel did not want to write, and what finally surrendering to it revealed about the work that carries real creative urgency.Your inner critic may become loudest when the work actually matters. A different way to understand the voice that tells you to pull back.Perfection can quietly eclipse artistry. When avoiding mistakes becomes the goal, creativity begins to lose its risk, play, and aliveness.A creative courage practice designed to reconnect you with what is uniquely yours to make, including the quirks, experiences, and perspectives only you can bring.About Rachel:Rachel Efron is an Oakland-based songwriter, producer, and creativity coach. She's released four full-length albums of original songs, plus written for such legends as Narada Michael Walden and Journey.

Send us Fan MailWitness the birth of a new performance fuel called Raw Spark Energy. Through pure serendipity, I met Ryan Hanlon near the finish line of Boulderthon, where he was handing passing runners free samples of his Raw Spark Energy bar. Ryan is an entrepreneurial 21-year-old who has spent hours in the kitchen tinkering with ingredients to come up with an all-natural fuel made from actual whole food ingredients. It consists of honey, dates, oats, agave, chia seeds, lemon juice and zest, tapioca, and sea salt, and I can tell you that it tastes pretty darn great. Each package weighs in at 120 calories, including 28g of carbs. It's rather fascinating listening to Ryan describe how he's tweaked the recipe and his production techniques. Of course, his next steps lean heavily on getting these into athletes' hands and stomachs through marketing. If you're a local athlete, hit him up at rawspark@gmail.com and perhaps you two can come up with a partnership. This is a young man's cool startup story and it has me pulling to see him succeed in the fast-growing endurance sports marketplace.Ryan Hanlonrawspark.comrawspark@gmail.comInstagram @rawspark.energy and ryanhanlon_2Bill Stahlsilly_billy@msn.comFacebook and LinkedIn Bill StahlInstagram and Threads @stahlor and @coachstahlYouTube We Are Superman PodcastSubscribe to our Substack for my archive of articles of coaching tips developed from my more than three decades of experience, wild and funny stories from my long coaching career, the wit and wisdom of David, and highlights of some of the best WASP episodes from the past that I feel are worthwhile giving another listen.Search either We Are Superman Podcast or @billstahl8Register for the American Heroes Run: https://ultrasignup.com/register.aspx?did=133138

In this episode, Madelyn O'Farrell interviews Eesha Pathak, Senior Director of Product Management at Crusoe, about her unconventional career from software engineering and branding to leading enterprise AI at Google and now building AI-first infrastructure. They discuss Crusoe's vertically integrated, energy-first approach to cloud and data centers, capturing abundant energy (like stranded gas and renewables) and turning “electrons into intelligence” via GPUs and a custom cloud stack. Eesha explains how Crusoe's gigawatt-scale campuses and modular Spark edge deployments complement each other to deliver both scale and low-latency inference, dives into the Managed AI platform with its model marketplace, self-serve and tailored deployments, fine-tuning, and upcoming reinforcement learning, and highlights why judgment and holistic thinking are critical in product and engineering. She also unpacks Crusoe's close partnership with NVIDIA, its role in enabling physical AI and robotics with low-latency compute, a flexible data and partnership strategy, and her long-term vision of Crusoe becoming the most helpful company for people building AI, so customers can focus on their products instead of wrestling with infrastructure.

Playing with 10 men for the entire second half, the Galaxy battled to a 1-0 victory over the San Jose Earthquakes, snapping a six-game winless streak and moving within two points of the Western Conference playoff line. On this episode of Corner of the Galaxy, Josh Guesman and Sophie Nicolaou break down Hirving “Chucky” Lozano's first start and home debut, the energy he's already bringing to the locker room, and why the Galaxy suddenly look like a much more dangerous team. Lozano played roughly 65 minutes, showing his ability to break pressure, combine with teammates, and create problems off the dribble. But the night also belonged to 19-year-old Harbor Miller and goalkeeper JT Marcinkowski. Miller created Joseph Paintsil's game-winning goal and continued his rapid emergence at right back, while Marcinkowski delivered another outstanding performance to preserve the shutout. The show also tackles Lucas Sanabria's costly red card, the Galaxy's growing discipline problem, the improving defense, and the upcoming trip to Montreal—with Sergi Roberto potentially arriving as soon as Friday. With 13 matches remaining, are we finally starting to see the team the Galaxy hoped they could become?

Photo: Bill Hill (Athabascan), Independent candidate for Alaska’s at-large congressional district. (Courtesy Bill Hill campaign) Tuesday is primary day in Wyoming, Florida, and Alaska, which uses ranked-choice voting (RCV). The top four vote getters in each race, regardless of party, move on to the general election in November. That makes voters turnout a key issue, especially in remote parts of the state, where Alaska Natives have seen numbers fade over the past 20 years. As Rhonda McBride from our flagship station KNBA reports, there are hopes Tuesday's election will show signs of a turnaround. One encouraging sign for Alaska Native voter turnout is the number of Native candidates running for office this year. “It's notable that we have a high-profile Native candidate in each big race.” Michelle Sparck is the Alaska director for Get Out the Native Vote. She says this marks the first time in years that there is an all-Native ticket for Alaska governor – with Meda DeWitt, a Tlingit and her running mate, Chris Steere, an Iñupiat. And there is national attention focused on former U.S. Rep. Mary Peltola (Yup'ik/D-AK), the first Alaska Native member of Congress. Peltola’s bid for the U.S. Senate is one the state's most closely watched races – a battle that could determine control of the country’s most powerful legislative body. Polls show a tight race between Peltola and incumbent U.S. Sen. Dan S. Sullivan (R-AK). The primary election could offer the clearest picture yet of where this race really stands. There is also Bill Hill (Athabascan), a longtime school superintendent and Bristol Bay fisherman. He is challenging incumbent U.S. Rep. Nick Begich (R-AK), who in 2024 unseated Peltola. Hill is an Independent and a relative political unknown, but his grassroots campaign has gained traction and polls show he is closing the gap with his opponent. Sparck says Get Out the Native Vote remains strictly nonpartisan and does not back candidates, but she is hoping the wealth of Native candidates will energize Native voters. Sparck says the real work in getting out the Native vote might be compared to cultivating a garden that has long been neglected. The mission for Sparck and her volunteers has been to travel from village to village, to revive the voting culture of the 1980's, when voter turnout ran as high as 70-80%, the era of the super voter. “They are today's elders.” Spark says turnout has fallen below 20%, but she hopes sharing the story of those earlier generations will inspire a new wave of super voters. A marker along the Southern border near the Tohono O'odham Nation between the U.S. and Mexico in June 2026. (Photo: Gabriel Pietrorazio) A federal judge is denying calls for a preliminary injunction by the Tohono O'odham Nation to halt border wall construction along a 60-foot stretch of land bordering the tribal reservation. KJZZ's Gabriel Pietrorazio has details. Judge Richard Leon in D.C. ruled last week that an injunction is “unwarranted”, writing he expects the U.S. to follow through on consulting with the Tohono O'odham Nation. Historically, that has not been the case, according to Tohono O'odham Chairman Verlon Jose. He points to the destruction of the 1,000-year-old Las Playas Intaglio, as the latest example. “We were assured that the border wall construction would not impact it, but despite that warning and assurances, federal contractors just bladed right through it, causing permanent damage to this O'odham and American treasure. You can't rebuild it.” Still, the judge noted that the feds' interests in ensuring public safety and enforcing immigration laws “outweigh any surviving irreparable harms.” Get National Native News delivered to your inbox daily.

Gravity - The Digital Agency Power Up : Weekly shows for digital marketing agency owners.
If you've been producing content, speaking, consulting, or coaching for a while, you probably know your stuff inside out. But knowing it and being able to transfer it - to clients, audiences, or products that work without you - are two very different things. That gap is exactly what this episode is about.Susanna Rea is a visual framework specialist, author of Framework Thinking, and one of the clearest thinkers I know on how to turn what you already do into something that genuinely scales. This conversation went places I didn't expect, including some honest reflection from me about the times I've left value on the table by not leaning into my own framework when it mattered most.If you're sitting somewhere between being good at what you do and being properly known for it, this one's for you.Visit her website : https://susannareay.comThree things we got into:✳️ A framework isn't a rigid process map - it's a way of connecting your ideas so your audience understands your value at a glance, stays in your world longer, and can follow the journey without you having to explain it from scratch every time.✳️ The four elements of Susanna's Framework Thinking model - impact detection, boundary setting, visual recognition, and transfer integrity - with transfer integrity at the centre, because a framework that only works when you're in the room isn't really a framework.✳️ Why AI is useful at the edges of framework development (spotting patterns in your data, suggesting names) but cannot do the excavation work in the middle - that part has to come from your lived experience, or it'll fall flat the moment someone asks you to speak to it.Susanna's amplifiers:✳️ Know your way - stay true to your own values and inner wisdom rather than mimicking what others are doing. Intuition is just your gathered thoughts over the years. Trust it.✳️ Block time to think with pen and paper - step away from screens and give your brain the space to percolate. No agenda. Just see what comes up.✳️ Lean into persistency over consistency - keep your eye on the goal, but experiment with how you get there. Doing the same thing every day and expecting different results is a trap.If you want to take the next step with Susanna, connect with her on LinkedIn and take her free Natural Authority Style Quiz - it takes under 3 minutes and gives you a personalised starting point for framework thinking.And if this episode has you thinking about your own positioning and how you get known for what you do, the Leader Brand Business Roadmap is a great place to start.

More than 220 miles of the Appalachian Trail weave through Pennsylvania, winding across mountains, valleys, and streams—and right through the heart of central PA. This iconic footpath stretches 2,197 miles from Georgia to Maine, challenging hikers from all walks of life to take part in one of the most grueling and inspiring outdoor adventures in the country.This week, The Spark team set out to meet some of these determined “thru-hikers” by offering a little surprise comfort along the way—what trail veterans fondly call “Trail Magic.” Armed with a cooler full of cold drinks, fresh fruit, and snacks, we set up at a parking area just off Interstate 81 in Lebanon County near the Swatara Rail Trail, a well-known access point for hikers passing through.What happened next was nothing short of magical.The Spark ‘Meeting Hikers of the Appalachian Trail' got second place in the Radio II Podcast category for the Keystone Media Awards.
As summer wraps up in Pennsylvania, Asia Tabb sits down with Pennsylvania Deputy Secretary of Tourism Anne Ryan for a postmortem look at how the Commonwealth handled a busy summer filled with major events, festivals, and visitors. They discuss what went well, the challenges along the way, the economic and tourism impacts across the state, and what Pennsylvania learned from the experience. It's a chance to assess the results of the preparation efforts discussed earlier this year and explore what the season ultimately meant for Pennsylvania's communities, businesses, and tourism industry.Dauphin County Coroner Graham Hetrick is calling for stricter regulation, and potentially a statewide ban, on kratom, a widely available substance he says has been linked to deaths in central Pennsylvania. Sold in gas stations and convenience stores with few restrictions, kratom has sparked growing concern among public health and medical professionals. On this episode of The Spark, we examine what kratom is, why some people use it, the health risks associated with it, and the debate over regulation. Experts in addiction medicine, toxicology, and emergency care join the conversation to discuss the science, public safety concerns, and what Pennsylvanians should know about this controversial substance.

Meanwhile, Mark Zuckerberg unveiled his vision for an AI-powered utopia that mostly boils down to "trust humanity to do the right thing," which is a bold statement from the guy whose $300 million yacht apparently couldn't hear a Coast Guard distress call from a stranded family. Elsewhere, an AI agent booked a gym class by exploiting a security hole and kicking someone else off the waitlist, because nothing says "personal assistant" like accidental cybercrime. The EU is now requiring labels on realistic AI generated content, China is breaking up people and their chatbot companions, and OpenAI reportedly has achieved the ultimate AI ethics breakthrough: having no dedicated ethicist.The surveillance dystopia is also picking up speed. Flock tried to turn hundreds of thousands of rideshare and delivery drivers into a roving army of license-plate snitches, while every Flock camera in one Minnesota city was promptly sawed down and stolen. Meta's smart glasses continue their transformation into the preferred accessory of creeps and pickup-artist assholes, prompting pubs and other venues to ban them outright. Researchers found those glasses being used to secretly record and harass women, proving once again that every shiny new piece of wearable technology eventually gets repurposed as a tool for human depravity. And because apparently your car dashboard wasn't already commercial enough, BMW is now putting Spider-Man ads on the screens you paid tens of thousands of dollars to own.Finally, Apple is facing a class-action lawsuit over an iCloud Private Relay flaw that can expose your supposedly private IP address, Anthropic is watermarking Claude-generated text, SpaceXAI is taking another year to remove a pile of unpermitted gas turbines, and somebody is apparently stealing millions of dollars in AI hardware straight off California highways. We also hit Media Candy with Strange New Worlds, Silo, Broadchurch, Ted Lasso, and The X-Files, sweat through yet another Apple Fitness disaster, celebrate the sweet relief of escaping Spark, and ask the eternal Gen-X question: how did all this technology supposedly make life easier when we're still just sitting here surrounded by 47 goddamn tabs?Sponsors:CleanMyMac - Get Tidy Today!

The Trump administration has pulled millions of dollars of funding for teen pregnancy prevention programs nationwide as part of its push for abstinence-only sex ed. Many states, including California, have embraced comprehensive sex ed requiring students to learn about reproduction as well as topics such as consent and contraception. Experts have credited such programs for helping cause the teen pregnancy rate to plummet and say federal policies and loss of funding could prove harmful in the long term and may be part of a larger agenda to encourage childbirth. We'll talk about the Trump administration's policies, defunding of programs, and best practices for educating teens about a loaded topic. Learn more about your ad choices.

A federal murder-for-hire trial has begun in New Orleans, marking the latest development in the FBI's long-running "Operation Sideswipe" investigation. The case centers around a sprawling, multi-million dollar scheme where "slammers" deliberately crashed cars into 18-wheelers to secure massive fraudulent insurance settlements. Demolition of the long-abandoned Lindy Boggs Medical Center officially began. Heavy machinery moved into the Mid-City site in New Orleans, marking the end of a 21-year vacancy that turned the former hospital into one of the city's most prominent post-Katrina eyesores.
What if the biggest problem in your relationships isn't what you're saying—but the fact that the other person hears it completely differently? Licensed therapist and author Jason VanRuler joins Ginny to talk about his new book, Discovering Your Communication Type, and the five communication styles—Peacemaker, Advocate, Thinker, Harbor, and Spark—that shape how we connect, handle conflict, and respond under pressure. Jason explains why great communication is often more about listening than speaking, why vulnerability gives others the opportunity to love us well, and how childhood experiences can shape the way we approach hard conversations. They also unpack the “Three Ds of Doom”—distraction, defensiveness, and dismissal—and why defensiveness often comes from confusing our mistakes with our identity. Ginny shares a deeply personal story about broken relationships and a difficult apology, leading to one of Jason's most powerful pieces of advice: when you've hurt someone, resist the urge to immediately explain yourself. From marriage and friendship to parenting adult children, this conversation is packed with practical ways to communicate better, repair relationships, and help the people we love feel truly heard.

The importance in the age of AI search of making info easy to find on your sites. Proactively fixing it so members come to the association for answers. Making data usable. How AI is bringing solutions both to member experiences and data organization & use internally. Adding business intelligence into AI systems. Why someone should come to the association for answers and not public AI tools. Properly teaching your AI agent. Key questions to ask yourself as you start to set up your AI tools.

Spark avoided the DeFi hack that hit almost everyone else in April. Cofounder Sam MacPherson lays out why, and where he thinks AI fits into DeFi security. ======================================================== Thank you to our sponsor! Visit 1inch.com to swap tokenized securities, crypto and more. Simple. Secure. Self-custodial. Whatever asset you're buying - swap it at 1inch.com ======================================================== In April, a hacker widely assumed to be tied to North Korea drained tens of millions from KelpDAO's rsETH market, and most of DeFi took the hit. Spark did not, because it had quietly exited rsETH months earlier. Sam MacPherson, cofounder and CEO of Spark, joins Laura Shin to unpack the conservative playbook, rate limits, a triple redundant oracle, and a governance process built to move slowly on purpose, that turned a near miss into a footnote while rivals absorbed the damage. They cover why Spark's TVL climbed more than 50% after the hack, how emergency multisigs and time locks work when Sky's month-long governance process is too slow, and why MacPherson thinks AI will make smart contract audits more reliable, not less. MacPherson also maps Spark's growing footprint, from Anchorage-backed institutional lending to a new Uniswap stablecoin FX layer, and why he isn't worried about SPK near its all-time low even as the business keeps compounding.
