Welcome back to State of the Culture Pt 2 (Continuation)

An alternative to postbac programs? Postbac programs are okay, but what if there was another path to medical school? M2s Sarah Upton, Alec Marticoff, and Kevin Gubner host the program directors of the Carver College of Medicine’s Masters of Clinical Anatomy Program. Interestingly, each co-host decided to get a MCA to make up for some shortcomings in their med school applications, whether it was soft a GPA or a lack of applicable hard science education. To do that, they could have done any number of things–like an expensive post-baccalaureate program that offers no degree–but instead they chose to seek an MCA degree to pave their way to medical school. Co-directors Marc Pizzimenti and Emma Handler visited with The Short Coat to discuss the program, what it’s like for students, and the additional skills that they got, including instruction in teaching…something they wouldn’t have gotten in a postbac program. In the end, the MCA program not only taught them anatomy–something they’d definitely need as physicians someday–but also helped them fix their undergrad shortcomings, readied them for the rigors of studying medicine, and built their teaching skills–all with an incredible student-faculty ratio they wouldn’t have gotten in many other degree programs. Plus they get to tack on some sweet letters after their names!

Mayor Josh Agee returns to The Paragould Podcast for his annual State of the City conversation — his sixth appearance on the show. In this episode, Josh walks us through what the City of Paragould has actually accomplished over the past year, how major decisions are made, and what's shaping the city's future. We talk about infrastructure projects like trail expansion, sidewalks, land bank redevelopment, and pocket parks, as well as the behind-the-scenes realities of public safety, disaster response, and city budgeting. Josh also reflects on the challenges of leadership in the age of social media, why representative government exists, and what it costs — financially and relationally — to keep a city running. From tornado recovery and emergency response to long-term investment, trash services, and economic development, this conversation offers a clear picture of how Paragould is growing and why collaboration matters. Whether you're curious about city projects, civic process, or the vision for making Paragould a place people want to move to — and come back to — this episode provides helpful context and honest perspective.

Across the globe, democracy is in crisis - in the UK alone, it has been rocked by Brexit, the pandemic and successive attempts by governments to bypass legal norms. But how did this happen, and where might we go from here? Jonathan Sumption cuts through the political noise with acute analysis of the state of democracy today - from the vulnerabilities of international law to the deepening suppression of democracy activism in Hong Kong, and from the complexities of human rights legislation to the defence of freedom of speech. Timely, incisive and wholly original, Challenges of Democracy: And the Rule of Law (Profile Books, 2026) applies the brilliance of 'the cleverest man in Britain' to the most urgent and far-reaching political issue of our day. Jonathan Sumption is a British judge and historian, who served as a Supreme Court Justice for six years. He is the author of the Sunday Times Bestseller Trials of the State, Law in a Time of Crisis, and Divided Houses, which won the 2009 Wolfson History Prize. Charles Coutinho, PH.

Send us a textIn this special holiday edition of Sidecar Sync, Amith Nagarajan and Mallory Mejias unwrap two stories that feel wildly different—but point to the same big idea: technology breaks barriers we once assumed were permanent. First, they dive into the NFL's quiet fascination with supersonic flight and how faster-than-sound travel could reshape sports, conferences, and global strategy. Then they shift gears to AI, unpacking a massive new study analyzing 100 trillion tokens of real-world usage to reveal how people actually use AI—from role-play and storytelling to agentic workflows and open-source models. Together, these stories challenge associations to rethink what's “unsolvable,” adopt an abundance mindset, and ask the most important question of all: what's your supersonic moment?

In this episode we introduce two great heroes: freed slave and adventurer Olaudah Equiano, and crusading abolitionist lawyer Granville Sharp.

John talks about the Supreme Court blocking Trump from deploying the National Guard to Chicago, but the National Guard in Louisiana have been called up for an upcoming deployment to New Orleans. He also discusses the DOJ releasing more files on Jeffrey Epstein, including an alleged letter to Larry Nassar. Then, he welcomes back Rev. Barry Lynn who is an ordained minister in the United Church of Christ and a former executive director for Americans United for the Separation of Church and State. And closing it up, John jokes with "Comedy Daddy" Keith Price and they take listener calls about pop culture, current politics, and the year in review.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

The State argues the district court correctly allowed evidence related to the murder of Charles Vallow and the attempted killing of Brandon Boudreaux, not to show criminal propensity, but to establish a pattern, plan, knowledge, and financial motive that closely mirrors the crimes involving JJ Vallow, Tylee Ryan, and Tammy Daybell. Prosecutors emphasize the defense had long-standing access to this evidence, defeating claims of unfair surprise or prejudice.The episode then breaks down Vallow's speedy trial argument using the Barker v. Wingo balancing test. While the length of delay slightly favors Vallow, the State explains that most of the delay was caused by the defense, including multiple competency proceedings and a change of venue. Vallow also failed to show any actual prejudice to her defense.Ultimately, the State asks the appellate court to affirm Lori Vallow Daybell's conviction, arguing that none of the claims raised on appeal warrant reversal. Appeals in Arizona are still expected, meaning the legal process is far from over.ALL MERCH 10% off with code Sherlock10 at checkout  - NEW STYLES Donate: (Thank you for your support!

“State of Flux” 30th-anniversary reflections A scouting expedition to an alien planet leads to a game-changing discovery. Surprisingly, it's not leola root. Nor is it mushrooms; though these are all pretty tasty finds. Even the Kazon can't lay claim to the title, despite turning out to have Starfleet technology aboard their ship. But we're getting warmer. How did the Kazon get their hands on the tech? It looks like the Voyager crew have a traitor in their midst. As Janeway, Chakotay, and Tuvok set out to solve the Case of the Cream of Mushroom, the trail leads them to a shocking revelation. In this episode of To The Journey, hosts C Bryan Jones and Matthew Rushing continue our 30th-anniversary retrospective that will take you through all of Star Trek: Voyager, one episode at a time. In this installment, we discuss “State of Flux,” Seska's big secret, how the story questions Starfleet ideals, and why establishing characters before plot twists matters.

Top 10 Photo Books of 2025: Trends, Top Picks & How to Publish Your Own with Daniel Agee (Good Fight Press) From the “10 Frames Per Second” Podcast (Episode 171— Year‑End 2025) “If even one photographer avoids a parasitic publisher because of this episode, it's an hour well spent.” – Daniel Agee Table of Contents Why Photo Books Still Matter in 2025 The State of Photo Book Publishing in 2025 2025 Trends Shaping Photobooks Our Editor's Top 10 Photo Books of the Year (2025) DIY Publishing in 2025: From Blurb to Newspaper‑Club Zines Looking Forward: Diversity, Climate, & Community in 2025+ Take Action – Listen, Read, Create Why Photo Books Matter in 2025 The “10 Frames Per Second” podcast (hosts Joe Giordano and Molly Roberts) brings together photo‑journalists, publishers, and collectors for an annual photo‑book roundup. In the most recent episode they welcomed Daniel Agee—co‑founder of Good Fight—to discuss: The economic realities of publishing a photo book. Emerging themes that dominated the past year and are spilling into 2026. Practical advice for creators who want to self‑publish. If you're looking for fresh titles, insider industry insights, or a step‑by‑step guide to making your own book, keep reading. The State of Photo Book Publishing in 2025 Issue What the Hosts Said (2024) Why It Still Matters for SEO in 2025 High Up‑Front Costs Publishers often charge $8k–$20k (or even $50k) to print a book, leaving many photographers in debt. Target keywords: photo book publishing cost 2025, how much does a photo book cost today? Parasitic vs. Quality Publishers “Parasitic, exploitive” publishers vs. “quality” houses that break even or make modest profit. Optimize for ethical photo book publishers, fair photo book publishing 2025. Self‑Serving Model Some creators profit from selling workshops, museum sales, and speaking gigs, not the book itself. Rank for how to make money with a photo book in 2025. Small Community Size Only 15–25k people worldwide actively buy photo books; reputation spreads fast. Use phrases like photo book community 2025, photo book collectors today. Transparency Is Key Sharing experiences (e.g., “don't pay $25k”) helps protect photographers. Long‑tail keyword: photo book publishing advice for beginners 2025. Takeaway: Know the economics before you sign a contract. Understanding the market helps you negotiate better and choose the right publishing path. 2025 Trends Shaping Photo books 1. Color Dominates the Scene Daniel called himself a “color baby” and highlighted Emily Shur's Sunshine Terrace (color) versus Ian Bates' Weight of Ash (B&W). In 2025, color‑driven storytelling is the norm, with vibrant palettes used to convey mood, climate, and cultural identity. 2. Intimate Family Narratives Continue to Thrive Titles such as Lisa Sogini's In Passing and Elijah Howe's Mike show a growing appetite for personal archives, grief, and memory—a trend that's still expanding in 2025. 3. Climate‑Change Documentation Becomes Urgent Weight of Ash (Ian Bates) and newer titles like “Rising Tides” (upcoming release) prove that eco‑focused photo books are both critically acclaimed and search‑engine friendly. 4. Nostalgia & Re‑imagined Memory Works such as Henry Head's fabricated‑memory series and retro‑styled zines echo a desire for “comforting past” aesthetics. 2025 sees an increase in “memory‑reconstruction” projects that blend staged and documentary photography. 5. DIY & Zine Explosion Small presses (e.g., Pomegranate Press, Charcoal Club) now publish 30+ titles a year. Zines like “Protest City”remain hot because they're cheap, fast, and socially relevant. 6. Diversity Gap Still Visible The hosts noted a 1% presence of women of color on mainstream shelves. In 2025, activist collectives and grant programs are emerging to address this imbalance, creating new opportunities for under‑represented voices. Editor's Top 10 Photo‑Books (2025) While the podcast aired at the end of 2024, the books listed continued to dominate conversations, sales, and awards throughout 2025. # Title & Author Publisher Why It Stands Out (2025 relevance) 1 A Surrender – Markus Naarttijärvi Good Fight IPA Photo Book of the Year; continues to win 2025 exhibition spots. 2 North North South – Ada Gragossian Gost Quiet portraits that bridge B&W (2024) and color (2025) trends. 3 Sunshine Terrace – Emily Shur Deadbeat Vibrant LA suburbia; frequently cited in 2025 “best color photo books.” 4 Weight of Ash – Ian Bates Deadbeat Black‑white documentation of post‑fire West Coast; a reference point for climate‑focused work in 2025. 5 In Passing – Lisa Sorgini LibraryMan (Sweden) Personal grief turned universal; heavily featured in 2025 mental‑health art talks. 6 Mike – Elijah Howe TIS Books Multi‑generational family archive; lauded for its hybrid of historic and contemporary images. 7 American Surfaces – Stephen Shore (original printing) Self‑published Classic modernist, revived interest in 2025 “retro design” movement. 8 Dark Knees – Mark Cohen Self‑published Endless photo flow; used as a case study in 2025 DIY publishing workshops. 9 Rising Tides – Maya Patel Deadbeat First major photo book of 2026 to directly address ocean‑level rise; already generating buzz. 10 Protest City (zine) – Rian Dundon (Episode 87) Independent Timely, affordable; remains a go‑to resource for activist photographers in 2025. Each title links to its publisher or a purchase page (when available) to improve link‑building and user experience. DIY Photo Book Publishing in 2025: From Blurb to Newspaper Club Zines If you're ready to skip the parasitic publisher, here's a 2025‑ready roadmap. 1. Choose Your Platform Platform Ideal For 2025 Price (approx.) Blurb Full‑color photobooks, photo‑calendars $30–$130 per copy Smartpress High‑quality softcover & hardcover $55–$165 per copy Newspaper Club Fast, cheap zines (10‑inch, 20‑page) $1.80 per copy (bulk) Lulu Global POD distribution, ISBN services $22–$115 per copy 2. Keep Production Simple Page count: 20–80 pages works best for self‑publish. Paper: 120‑140 gsm matte for a professional feel without breaking the bank. Bleed: Add 0.125″ (3 mm) bleed to avoid white edges. 3. Photo Book Design Tips for 2026 Use responsive grid systems (12‑column) to ensure visual balance on both print and digital previews. Choose one primary typeface (e.g., GT America) and one accent font for captions. Add an ISBN if you plan to sell through retailers—most POD platforms provide this for a small fee. 4. Printing & Shipping Order a proof copy first; catch color or layout errors. Print in bulk (≥30 copies) to lower per‑unit cost. Ship to local bookstores, photo‑spaces (e.g., Baltimore Photo Space), or directly to collectors. Looking Forward: Diversity, Climate, & Community in 2025+ • More Voices Needed The hosts repeatedly called for photographers of color and women to be featured. In 2025, grant programs (e.g., The Imprint Good Fight Fellowship) and inclusive small presses are actively seeking submissions. • Climate‑Centric Stories Books that document environmental change (e.g., Weight of Ash, Rising Tides) are search‑friendly and align with a growing public interest in sustainability. • Local Photo Spaces as Hubs Places like Baltimore Photo Space act as collaboration labs—they host workshops, zine swaps, and free coffee nights that foster community. • Instagram Still a Gatekeeper Publishers continue to scrutinize follower counts. Building a genuine community and engaging consistently can open doors without paying a publisher upfront.

Points of Interest00:00 – 01:38 – Introduction: Marcel welcomes agency legal specialist Sharon Toerek, highlighting her long track record in the industry and setting the stage with a discussion about how quickly the agency world is changing.01:38 – 02:45 – Framing the AI Legal Conversation for Agencies: They position the core topic of the episode as the legal implications of AI adoption inside agencies, especially when serving enterprise clients with sensitive data and heightened risk concerns.02:45 – 05:03 – The Two Biggest AI Risk Buckets: IP and Data Privacy: Sharon identifies intellectual property and data privacy as the top two legal risk areas agencies must consider when using generative AI in strategy, creation, and data manipulation.05:03 – 08:11 – IP Infringement, Ownership, and Contract Clarity: She explains how generative AI can inadvertently infringe on others' IP, complicate ownership of deliverables, and increase the need for explicit AI usage and ownership language in MSAs and SOWs.08:11 – 10:23 – Agency-Created IP and Contractor Use of AI: Sharon explores the risks of building agency-owned IP with AI when ownership is uncertain, and stresses the importance of knowing how contractors use AI so their work aligns with promises made to clients.10:23 – 15:11 – The State of Case Law and Fair Use Signals: They discuss how little case law exists around AI, what early decisions suggest about training data and fair use, and why we still do not know how much human contribution is needed to secure protectable IP.15:11 – 18:26 – Blurring Lines Between Human and Machine-Created Work: Marcel and Sharon reflect on how modern creative tools embed AI in everyday workflows, making it harder to distinguish human-made from machine-generated content for legal and practical purposes.18:26 – 22:40 – A Practical Playbook for Reducing AI Legal Risk: Sharon outlines concrete steps agencies can take now: have AI conversations with clients, update contracts, understand tool terms, set internal and external AI policies, and right-size risk based on audience scale.22:40 – 26:05 – Where Insurance Fits in the AI Risk Equation: They examine how general liability, E&O, and cyber policies currently treat AI-related issues, and why insurers are likely to carve out or slowly add AI-specific coverage as risks and profits emerge.26:05 – 30:31 – Market Volatility, AI Shock, and Rising Agency M&A: Sharon connects AI disruption, economic uncertainty, and geopolitical tension to a surge in small and mid-size agency deals, noting many founders are simply tired of reinventing their businesses again.30:31 – 35:40 – IP as a Lever in Exits and Next Career Moves: She makes the case that agencies who develop and package their own IP create more options in M&A, whether selling IP separately, splitting the business, or using it to launch the next chapter of their careers.Show NotesInnovative Agency PodcastWebsite: legalandcreative.comLinkedIn - Sharon ToerekM&A Webinar Replay with SharonLove the PodcastLeave us a review here.

The year 2025 closed with a series of consumer rights breaches in the services sector. In early December, IndiGo cancelled and rescheduled flights en masse due to operational mismanagement and pilot scheduling issues.In the securities markets, —Avadhut Sathe Trading Academy was alleged to have misled its students on various counts. And, in a lesser-known incident, a consumer approached the Supreme Court over an incorrect negative credit score that refused to rectify despite previous court orders. In all three cases, an arm of the State intervened, but consumers did not get compensation for the harms they suffered. This underscores a larger faultine: the law has weakened the average Indian consumer by taking away their agency to sue the service provider and obtain relief for themselves.

Today, President Trump is supposed to receive recommendations of the Secretaries of State and the Treasury concerning arguably his second presidency's most consequential national security decision to date.  At stake is whether the United States joins other allied nations in banning the Muslim Brotherhood. Or alternatively, pretends that the organization is not leading a global Islamic movement to destroy our constitutional Republic and Western civilization.  Dozens of leading American freedom-fighters just appealed to Mr. Trump to ban the Brotherhood, meaning the parent organization as well as all of its chapters and subdivisions, including the U.S. ones and their extensive infrastructure in this country. By so doing, the President can clearly demonstrate that America will resist, not submit to, the Muslim Brotherhood and its allies' bid to transform ours from the land of the free to the home of the enslaved. This is Frank Gaffney.

As I write this, it's Christmas Eve. While many of us are moving through a season of comfort and predictability, I keep returning to what I saw walking through the streets of Cuba. Not in headlines or statistics, but at street level. Neighbourhoods without running water. Electricity that fails often enough to be expected. Roads and sidewalks eroded into improvisation rather than repair. Infrastructure that no longer supports daily life, but merely endures alongside it. What struck me most were the small, improvised economies operating inside people's homes. Corner shops carved out of living rooms and front windows. Shelves mostly empty. A few scattered items; soap, canned goods, a bottle or two; offered more as possibility than supply. These were not businesses in the conventional sense, but acts of persistence. People selling what little they could source, not to grow, but to survive. In contrast, government stores stood rigid and bare. Long lines formed early, people waiting patiently for whatever might arrive. No certainty, no choice; just endurance. Elderly men and women stood apart, looking through windows rather than lining up, watching quietly, as if calculating whether the effort was worth the return. There was no anger in their posture. Just fatigue. A lifetime lived long enough to recognize scarcity as permanent rather than temporary. And yet, the streets were not chaotic. Homes were occupied. Communities functioned. People greeted one another. Children played. There was dignity in how life continued despite the absence of systems meant to sustain it. Pride, not in conditions, but in endurance. A refusal to surrender daily routines, even when the state no longer reliably provides the basics those routines depend on. That contrast stayed with me. Material failure on one side; social cohesion on the other. Institutions visibly broken, yet communities holding themselves together through habit, restraint, and mutual recognition. As we sit surrounded by abundance and choice, Cuba offers a sobering reminder; collapse does not always look like disorder. Sometimes it looks like people quietly adapting, carrying on, and preserving dignity in circumstances that leave very little room for it. Cuba's Economic Landscape The Cuban economy rests on three pillars, each one cracked. State control dictates production and distribution, yet delivers neither predictably. Tourism brings foreign currency when it comes; when it doesn't, entire sectors go dormant. Remittances from family abroad keep individual households afloat but cannot repair what the state has allowed to deteriorate. I watched this play out in Holguín. Hotels near the beaches sat half-empty, their lobbies staffed but waiting. Tour buses passed through neighborhoods where residents had no meaningful contact with the tourist economy happening beside them. The money flows in narrow channels, reaching some while bypassing most, and when global disruptions close those channels entirely, there is no backup system. The pandemic proved this. When travel stopped, so did the pretense of economic diversification. Jobs vanished. Services contracted. The state stepped in where it could, but its capacity had already been stretched thin by decades of deferred maintenance and misallocated resources. Families with relatives in Miami or Madrid survived on wire transfers; families without them made do with less. The government has acknowledged the brittleness, at least partially. Small private businesses now operate legally in food service and retail; spaces that would have been unthinkable a generation ago. Joint ventures with foreign companies receive official encouragement. On paper, these reforms signal openness. On the ground, they operate within boundaries so narrow that growth remains theoretical rather than realized. Because the fundamental problem persists: there is not enough of anything. Goods arrive sporadically. Industrial output continues its decline. Foreign investors cal...

Strap in for an explosive episode of Joe Oltmann Untamed as Joe delivers the latest on Tina Peters' fight for justice and drops bombshells from Georgia 2020—Fulton County now admits certifying 315,000 early votes without required poll worker signatures, violating the law while the Secretary of State confirms broken processes. Discreet USB handoffs caught on video and Joe's fiery response lay bare the fraud that stole our elections. Where are the arrests for this treason-level deception? Joe demands accountability as the evidence piles up.Retired Air Force Colonel Thomas "Buzz" Rempfer joins Joe to expose the origins of today's vaccine mandates in the illegal 1998–2001 anthrax program—forcing experimental shots on troops amid suspected DoD-FDA-Big Pharma collusion. The author of Unyielding and founder of Hoping4Justice.org calls for Trump-era record corrections and discharge upgrades for punished veterans, tracing EUAs straight back to this dark chapter and warning of the same playbook used today.The show closes with "Cleaning Up The Mess" Trump's DHS triples self-deportation incentives to $3,000, but liberals meltdown: a Dominican-born Lawrence, MA mayor needing a translator in court, an illegal truck driver freed after a fatal crash, and activists screaming to deport MAGA instead of criminals. Clips roast Hakeem Jeffries' fear of Trump's success and highlight deportation wins, ending with the anthem "Backfire on La Vista." This is raw truth and righteous fire—tune in and join the untamed fight to reclaim America!

In this direct episode of The Unapologetic Man Podcast, host Mark Sing breaks down seven powerful conversational weapons that can rapidly spike a woman's attraction — without relying on canned lines, jokes, or forced humor. If you've ever thought "I don't know what to say to women", this episode is the antidote. Mark goes beyond vague advice like "be funny" or "elicit emotions" and gives you specific, field-tested conversational tools that create emotional engagement, intrigue, and attraction almost immediately.  From confident assumptions and emotional hooks to qualification, standards, and psychological alliance-building, this episode shows you how to move conversations out of boredom and into real momentum — fast. Key Takeaways: - Why asking the right emotionally charged questions beats small talk every time. - How confident assumptions (cold reads) instantly increase attraction. - Why making women qualify themselves flips the attraction dynamic in your favor. - How to create a subtle "us vs. them" alliance that bonds her to you psychologically.

In this episode, we continue breaking down the State of Idaho's response to Lori Vallow Daybell's appeal, picking up deep into the brief as the State dismantles claims of constitutional violations.The State argues that Lori Vallow failed all three prongs of the fundamental error test — including claims that her Sixth Amendment right to counsel was violated and that her due process rights were ignored while she was deemed incompetent.We walk through why the court says Mark Means had the opportunity to respond but chose not to, why this was not a structural error, and why any alleged error would be considered harmless under existing case law.The episode also dives into the key issue of competency, explaining why hearings held in Chad Daybell's separate criminal case did not violate Lori Vallow's rights — including her right not to be prosecuted while incompetent or her right to be physically present.This section of the appeal gives rare insight into what was happening behind the scenes while much of the case was under seal — and why the State is confident none of these arguments will impact her Idaho conviction.ALL MERCH 10% off with code Sherlock10 at checkout  - NEW STYLES Donate: (Thank you for your support!

Republicans are working a bill through Congress that is a healthcare reform bill.  If passed, it will lower health care premiums for the working class.  President Trump addresses the nation on his progress of his first year back in office.  He also talks about the nation going forward, with more coming up in a couple of months when he gives a full "State of the Union," address.  I also give an update on the billions of dollars of fraud that federal agents uncovered in Minnesota.  This doesn't look good for the Democrats in Minnesota, especially their governor.  -Thank you for listening!- Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/brian-wallenberg-show--3256416/support.

THE TRAGIC FATE OF LOGAN AND JEFFERSON'S DISCOVERY Colleague Robert G. Parkinson. The narrative reveals the tragic fate of the Mingo leader, Logan. In 1794, a surveyor encounters a Native American who admits to killing his uncle, Logan, near Lake Erie around 1780. The nephew explains that Logan had become too powerful and unpredictable a figure during the Revolutionary War, necessitating his silence. The discussion then moves to Thomas Jefferson, who discovers "Logan's Lament" while writing Notes on the State of Virginia, intending to use the speech to demonstrate Indigenous intellect and refute European claims of American degeneracy, regardless of the text's factual errors.
