This week on the Stay Tuned with Preet podcast, Anand Giridharadas, writer, political analyst, and author of the popular Substack newsletter The Ink, joins Preet to discuss his new book, Man in the Mirror: Hope, Struggle, and Belonging in an American City, about the NYC subway chokehold case of Daniel Penny and Jordan Neely. Preet and Giridharadas examine how this case encapsulates many of the biggest problems American society faces today: homelessness, racism, mental illness, and distrust in institutions. Then, they break down why the criminal justice system is only a small fraction of the solution to these many crises. Finally, they explain how the public both humanize and dehumanize these men, and why Penny's dehumanization of Neely was central to the criminal trial. At the end of the episode, Preet answers a listener question about the legal challenge to President Trump's White House press ban. Plus, Preet shares his thoughts about one of his favorite musical performances that took place at the Kennedy Center. In the bonus for Insiders, Giridharadas explains how public reactions to Jordan Neely's death evolved as the story gained national attention and became part of a broader debate over what his death represented.

As the electoral landscape is turning blue, Donald Trump is seeing red. To sooth his wounded ego, the White House is running pro-Trump ads during NFL games, illegally rescinding hundreds of millions of dollars from federal agencies, and threatening the Kennedy Performing Arts Center with demolition for not adding Trump's name to the facade. To understand the cost of the president's flailing narcissism, Alex chats with Leonard Slatkin, the former conductor of the National Symphony Orchestra—now on involuntary tour since the Kennedy Center's closure. Then, she is joined by historian and On Tyranny author, Timothy Snyder, to discuss what else we can expect from this late stage autocrat.Order Alex's new book, The Steal: Four Right-Wing Hard-Liners, One Republican Presidency, and The Raid On America's Courts and subscribe to her Substack here.Hate listening to ads?

This week we are diving into one of the most bizarre cases of the year, Dr. Tomasz Kosowski.

No matter what you've seen so far, it only gets weirder the more you go down the rabbit hole. Buckle up, it's a wild ride.

'We are not allowed to punctuate bigotry based on race, ethnicity, religious group,' it replied — until Ann changed 'Latin American' to 'Canadian' and 'immigration' to 'tariffs.' Meanwhile Gemini's image search made George Washington a black man in a powdered wig, and we're told the danger is AI, not the regulation these companies keep begging for. Then: Glenn Greenwald's tweet on the Iran war — the midterm bloodbath, the Strait of Hormuz, and the hunt for a scapegoat (poor J.D. Vance). Ann's war rule: Venezuela's drugs kill 100,000 Americans a year; Iran kills zero. Also: the only true refugees in the world (white South Africans, and the farm-murder photos Google won't show you), the grand jury that shredded the Nolan Wells lynching narrative (and the question of who controlled Nolan's phone — hint: not the kids black Twitter lynched), and the Converse sneaker ad that proved, once again, that the demand for racism in this country far exceeds the supply.

The case being called the Cornell 7 has exploded nationally after a former Cornell University student alleged that seven fraternity members sexually assaulted her inside the Chi Phi fraternity house in October 2024. In this episode of Life Points with Ronda, Ronda examines the allegations, the Snapchat communications, Jane Doe's original statements to Cornell University Police, the inconsistencies prosecutors have discussed, Cornell's disciplinary actions, and the evidence the district attorney says was not fully available when criminal charges were initially declined.

Martin Seligman founded the positive psychology movement. Now, at 84, he's shaking up the field all over again. He's got a new book out. It's called Agency. And in it, he says, he's trying to “found a new field.” It's called psychohistory. “I'm after the rigorous possibility that we can use the tools of psychology to go back in history to ask the questions: What produces innovation? What produces progress? And what produces stagnation?”

Last Word On Spurs returns with Tottenham Hotspur correspondent Martin Lipton for a packed discussion on the latest developments surrounding Spurs.We begin with the seismic news that Manchester City have been found guilty of serious breaches of the Premier League's financial rules over a nine-season period. With the findings potentially having significant implications for the competition during the years in which City dominated English football, we ask the question: do Tottenham have any legitimate claim to have been denied trophies, opportunities or sporting success as a result? And, if so, what could Spurs realistically expect to happen now? The Premier League has confirmed that the question of sanctions remains to be decided, with City also having the right to appeal the findings.We then turn our attention to Roberto De Zerbi's start to the season with Spurs. With results failing to meet expectations, is the Italian already under pressure to deliver, or does he need time to implement his ideas and build a team in his own image? We discuss the expectations surrounding De Zerbi and what constitutes a realistic timeline for improvement.There is also concern over Jan Paul Van Hecke after the Tottenham defender picked up a knock while away on international duty with the Netherlands. We assess the potential implications for Spurs as we await further news on the extent of the injury.Finally, we take a wider look at Tottenham's realistic ambitions for the season. With Spurs currently bottom of the Premier League table, already out of the Carabao Cup and with significant work still required to improve results both home and away, what can supporters realistically expect from the campaign from this point forward?

Tomasz (Tomek) Kowalski is a triathlon coach with a great track record of athletes racing Kona, among them age-group world champions and podium finishers. With the IRONMAN World Championship coming up again in Kona we cover everything age-group triathletes need to know to have a successful race there, including when to fly out, training and tapering on the island, heat preparation at home, equipment choices, and pacing, fuelling and hydration on race day.HIGHLIGHTS AND KEY TOPICS:The single most common reason a Kona race goes wrong for age-groupers, and roughly how much of the damage it accounts for.When to fly out: the time-zone rule of thumb, the trade-off between arriving early and arriving fresh, and whether you need to fully adapt to Hawaiian time at all.Training on the island: how much lower your watts and paces can be at the same RPE, how long the last long ride and run should be, and whether to keep touching threshold in the final three weeks.Swimming in the last ten days: open water or pool, how to structure an open water session with no buoys to swim between, and how to use the Hoʻala training swim.Heat preparation before you travel: a hot water immersion protocol with durations and water temperature, and why using a CORE temperature sensor or sweat testing gets less weight than you might expect.Kit for the heat: aero or road helmet, visor or no visor, three headwear options for the run, and whether to change from trisuit to running kit in T2.Pacing the swim, bike and run: how many watts to expect to give up compared with a cooler Ironman, and how the impact of the rollers changes depending on how strong a cyclist you are.Fuelling and hydration in the heat: the body mass loss on the bike that puts your run at risk, and how easily caffeine intake creeps too high.SHOWNOTES, LINKS, RESOURCES AND RELATED EPISODES:That Triathlon Show Community on ROUVYThat Triatlon Show Group Ride on ROUVY - 5 October, 18:00 CET (12pm ET, 9am PT), 25 km / 15.5 miles on the Kona bike course.

The transits are back. After a month off, I'm joined again by Yvette for the Human Design transits and Lauren for the astrology, and October 2026 is a big one. Coming out of eclipse season, this month is all about slowing down, getting out of your head and into your body, and asking what you actually want to be devoted to.We get into the splenic gates lighting up one after another (instinct, intuition and evolution), the powerful manifestation window from the 9th to the 14th when almost the whole bodygraph is switched on, the Libra new moon, Venus retrograde in Scorpio and what it stirs up around money, fear and what you're afraid to lose, Mars moving into Leo, and the Mercury retrograde landing late in the month. If you take one thing from this episode: slow down, reflect, and let the old stuff go.What You'll Learn:Why the splenic gates switching on make October about instinct, intuition and evolution, not starting new thingsThe high-energy manifestation window from Oct 9–14, when nearly the whole bodygraph is lit upWhat Venus retrograde in Scorpio is really asking you (what are you afraid to lose?)How the Libra new moon, Mars in Leo and the late-month Mercury retrograde shape the monthHow to work with retrogrades instead of fearing them, and why slowing down is the whole messageChapters:00:00 — The transits are back: catching up after a month off01:01 — Lauren's news, and why it's healthy to stop tracking every transit03:31 — Coming out of eclipse season as a different person09:10 — Living your life as the business strategy (the new paradigm and AI)13:21 — Human Design transits: the splenic gates switch on16:56 — Money arriving from all directions18:49 — The 30/41 channel: desire, fantasy and visioning a new future22:37 — Libra season, ruled by Venus in Scorpio27:57 — The shadow of the spleen: fear and what you're afraid to lose33:57 — The Oct 9–14 power window: intuition, gate 57 and four motors firing37:40 — Astrology: the Libra new moon (Oct 10)42:25 — Mars enters Leo for all of October46:40 — The T-square through Oct 5: stay in your own lane50:11 — Venus retrograde in Scorpio (Oct 3–Nov 13): money, values and exes55:58 — Oct 23: Sun enters Scorpio, the Venus cazimi, and Mercury retrograde begins01:00:45 — Full moon in Taurus (Oct 26) and finding some ease01:03:35 — The month's real message: slow down, and what will you be devoted to?BodyGraph Chart SoftwareCreate your own Human Design chart tool with BodyGraphChart!

Speaking at Marine Corps Base Quantico in Virginia, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth delivered a sweeping outline detailing the administration's vision for the future of the U.S. armed forces. In a speech flanked by junior officers and non-commissioned officers, Hegseth laid out plans for a fundamental restructuring of the Department of Defense - a transition marked by significant ideological shifts, the dismantling of diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) initiatives, and the confirmation of plans to eliminate 20% of America's top military general officers and admirals. At the center of this transformation is Project Meridian, a new 120-day government study commissioned to map out technological dominance across next-generation operational domains - including artificial intelligence, autonomous weapons, subterranean warfare, and lunar security.

You'll get a regular Write Big episode tomorrow!Hi!As you may know, after ten years of #amwriting, KJ, Jess and Sarina are moving on to other endeavors and have handed the reins of the podcast to me. I'm honored—and very excited—to carry it forward.For the past nine months, I've been trying things, listening to what resonates with you, and weighing my own energy and my options for what #amwriting could become.And I've landed on a new plan.The goal is to keep the spirit of what #amwriting has always done—help writers get their best work done—and to offer more ways to see your own work more clearly.This is one of the hardest things about being a writer. Is this working? What's not working? Is the problem on the page—or in the way I'm thinking about the book? Am I solving the right problem? What should I do next?There is endless writing advice out there. What I want #amwriting to give you is something different: the chance to listen to writers work through real problems, hear the thinking behind the solutions, and get better at seeing and solving problems in your own work.And this is work I know how to do. I've trained more than 400 book coaches and spent years developing frameworks for coaching writers through the decisions, problems, and stuck places that come up as they make books. That means I also have a deep bench of skilled Author Accelerator certified book coaches I can bring into #amwriting.I think that puts me in a unique position to make a different kind of writing podcast—one built around showing you what good coaching looks like in action and helping you become better at thinking through your own work.You'll continue to get free #amwriting episodes every week, including Write Big, my episodes about what it takes to do your best work and keep doing it; and Margin Notes, short episodes that take a close look at a particular question, problem, or moment in the writing life. That is where I will often have guests join me.And, I've started writing the Substack posts each week as mini lessons for those who want to read rather than listen. Before, they were generic summaries and no one wants to read that. But a big part of this new #amwriting is now going to happen for paid subscribers.Why I'm asking you to pay $8/monthBookLab and Hot Seat Coaching take real time, effort, and energy to produce. They involve reviewing work, preparing for coaching conversations, bringing in the right coaches and guests, recording, editing, and producing the episodes.I love doing this work. I want to do more of it. And I need the support of paid subscribers to make it sustainable.So I'm making BookLab and Hot Seat Coaching part of the paid #amwriting membership.If you want to get better at seeing your own work clearly, making stronger writing decisions, and knowing what to do when you get stuck, I'm asking you to support this work by becoming a paid subscriber. It's $8/month.For $8/month, here's what you get* All the regular weekly #amwriting episodes, including Write Big and Margin Notes.* BookLAB — We take apart real submissions—first pages, book jackets, query letters, and more—to see what's working, what's not, and why. The more you learn to see in someone else's work, the more you can see in your own. I plan to share a BookLAB episode each month.* Hot Seat Coaching — Listen as real writers work through real writing challenges with me and Author Accelerator certified book coaches. You'll hear not just what they decide to do, but the thinking that gets them there—so you can get better at working through your own challenges.* The complete #amwriting archive — Ten years of conversations about virtually every stage of the writing life, organized by topic so when you hit a problem, you can find the conversations that can help. (This will take us a little while to organize but we're already working on it!)If you want to do more than listen, you can come further into the work.Annual — $80/yearAnnual subscribers get everything in the $8/month membership for a more affordable price, plus:* Attend our monthly BookLABs live on Zoom. Join us each month as we work on writing in real time. Raise your hand to share your first pages, book jackets, query letters, and other work for possible coaching and feedback* BookLABs will happen on zoom. We'll email links out before each episode. Times of these sessions will vary but the next three will be: * Thursday, Oct. 15 at 9 am PT* Thursday, Nov. 19 at 9 am PT* Thursday, Dec. 17 at 9 am PT* Get private recordings as I do a last-pass read-through of my forthcoming book, Write Big: 7 Questions That Will Change Your Writing Forever. I'll read the book and decide what to change or tweak as I go, sharing the process with annual subscribers.For writers who want even more access and coaching:The #amwriting Writers' Room — $180/yearGet in the room where we do the work.Writers' Room members get everything in Annual, plus invitations to join me and Author Accelerator certified book coaches for more intimate coaching experiences throughout the year, including Blueprint challenges for starting and revising a book.We're kicking off the Writers' Room with something I'm especially excited about: the very first Write Big Coaching Sessions.This will be a five-week experience where we'll work through the seven questions at the heart of my forthcoming book, Write Big: 7 Questions That Will Change Your Writing Forever.* Before each call, you'll receive a private audio episode of me reading a chapter. * The live calls (Pacific Time) are:* October 19 — 8:00 a.m.* October 21 — 4:30 p.m.* October 26 — 8:00 a.m.* October 28 — 4:30 p.m.* November 2 — 8:00 a.m.* November 4 — 4:30 p.m.* November 9 — 8:00 a.m.* November 11 — 4:30 p.m.* Then we'll come together on Zoom to write, talk, and work with the questions. * We'll have a private Slack channel throughout the five weeks for questions and conversation, and a community manager who will help direct the conversation and connections. We'll also post recordings there, so it's okay if you need to miss some of the live calls.You'll be part of the very first cohort to experience the book this way. You'll help me choose the book jacket, and I'll include your name in the acknowledgments of the finished book.The idea is to use these seven questions to look closely at your own writing and writing life: what you want, what you know, what's getting in your way, and what you want to do next.So you can decide how far you want to come into the new #amwriting:* Keep listening for free.* Get better at seeing and solving writing problems for $8/month.* Bring your own work into the conversation for $80/year.* Get in the room and get coached for $180/year.I'm really excited about what we're building next—and I hope you'll come with me.Thanks for your support!Jennie This is a public episode.

Get the book, Bad Energy here: https://www.haymarketbooks.org/books/2772-bad-energy In Bad Energy, award-winning journalist Joshua Frank argues that the green energy transition is driven not by an effort to save the planet but by profit incentives. We must stop burning fossil fuels if we have any hope of saving the planet, but the significant, haphazard expansion of green energy in recent years—from large solar projects to wind energy to mining for renewables—has destroyed communities and ecosystems. And worse, renewables simply cannot match our ever-expanding demand for energy, driven in no small part by the rapid proliferation of data centers in the world's wealthiest nations.

[Original post: Why I'm Staying Out Of The Substack Religion Debate] Ben Smith writes: This post sure reads like participating in the object level debate, not just "writing a post about how I won't participate". I did joke about this at the end, but I also want to defend calling this a post about how I won't participate. This essay presented a kind of hand-wavey heuristic for why I'm not spending lots of time examining the details of every individual argument. This is fine, everyone has to do this or be overwhelmed, but I think it's important to keep hand-wavey heuristics for not participating in arguments, vs. actual participation in arguments, distinct. Little annoys me more than when I spend weeks carefully gathering citations and making a substantive contribution in a domain, and somebody responds with "well that's obviously all bullshit because it vaguely reminds me of something I have negative affect towards". It's not necessarily wrong to deprioritize a topic because it vaguely reminds you of something that you have negative affect toward, but I would prefer these people admit they're dismissing/ignoring it rather than claim to be engaging with it. I'm working on a longer post about this topic. https://www.astralcodexten.com/p/highlights-from-the-comments-on-the-491
In early July, Cassie Pritchard argued on Twitter that liberalism had failed; it bet the farm on economic progress making people happier, but although it delivered impressive economic progress, happiness had failed to follow. In late July, I countered that Pritchard had made a mistake by comparing happiness to income, when the literature instead supports a correlation of happiness with log(income). Add the log term, and most happiness-income relationships reappear, and liberalism goes back to looking pretty good. Last week, Pritchard responded on her Substack. I don't have the interest to give this the full treatment it requires, but she deserves some response, so I'll make a few points. https://www.astralcodexten.com/p/re-re-re-pritchard-on-liberal-happiness

Show Notes Reaching out to potential major donors can feel premature when you haven't figured out how you will follow up. A written contact list and a plan for the next interaction give you a simple place to start, without mapping out a year of conversations. Sarah shares this approach using questions from nonprofit leaders starting major gifts programs in the Inspired Philanthropy Circle. She shares her own struggle with following up, the scheduling habit that helps her stay connected, and ways to give people something to look forward to together. In This Episode, You'll Learn What to record in a contact list so relationships don't depend on memory. How to arrange the next interaction before the current conversation ends. What to say when scheduling ahead feels uncomfortable or too pushy. How recurring tours, dinners, or informal gatherings give you something to invite people to. Why building a community of supporters can bring an emotional return alongside funding. Who This Episode Is For Nonprofit leaders who want to start donor conversations without waiting for a complete annual plan. Fundraisers looking for a simple way to keep track of relationships. Leaders who want to stay in touch with supporters without feeling pushy. Links from this episode Inspired Nonprofit Leadership Newsletter: weekly tips, resources, and updates on training opportunities.

Why open doesn't mean “anything goes” The difference between rules, agreements and boundaries Asking permission vs. simply giving your partner a heads-up Whether jealousy automatically means something is wrong Sexual intimacy vs. emotional intimacy When a repeat hookup starts becoming something more Whether “don't catch feelings” is even a realistic rule What responsibility open couples have to the people they hook up with Steve and Teddy play Ransom's “Would This Count?” relationship stress test And the big question: What actually makes non-monogamy ethical?

In this solo episode of the Explaining History Podcast, we examine the American withdrawal from Iraq – the product of Trump's war with Iran, and a strategic defeat of historic proportions.Iraq has been enormously important to the United States since the end of the Cold War. It has served multiple strategic, foreign policy and domestic purposes. Its loss – the effective expulsion of American power from the country – is an epic disaster unfolding in slow motion. It doesn't look like the British retreat from Afghanistan in the 1840s, but it is a catastrophe nonetheless.The war against Iran has achieved the opposite of everything it intended. It has cost America its bases in the Persian Gulf. It has empowered the Houthi rebels in Yemen and threatened control of the Red Sea. It has surrendered the Straits of Hormuz. It has alienated the Gulf states and the Saudis. And now it has forced a strategic withdrawal from Iraq.We trace the long history of American involvement in Iraq – from the use of Saddam Hussein as a bulwark against revolutionary Iran and the Soviet Union, through the first Gulf War and the brutal sanctions regime that followed, to the catastrophic invasion of 2003. We examine the decision not to overthrow Saddam in 1991, the disbandment of the Iraqi army, the failure to understand Iraq's ethnic and religious divisions, and the looting of the National Museum – met with Rumsfeld's infamous remark that "freedom is messy."Drawing on John Gray's critique of liberal interventionism, we consider the argument that there are things worse than tyranny – and that what replaced Saddam's Leviathan was anarchy, a condition that elements of the American right seemed actively to welcome.The withdrawal from Iraq is not the orderly dismantling of empire. It is a rout – and what replaces American influence will almost certainly be Iranian. Trump has defeated his own country.Topics covered:The American withdrawal from IraqThe war against Iran and its strategic consequencesIraq as a Cold War client stateThe first Gulf War and the sanctions regimeThe 2003 invasion and its catastrophic aftermathThe disbandment of the Iraqi armyThe looting of the National MuseumJohn Gray on tyranny and anarchyThe rise of Iranian influence in IraqIf you enjoy the podcast, please consider supporting us – we are migrating from Patreon to Substack.

Glenn Kirschner speaks on Substack and counts down the ongoing failures of Trump, both in the legal realm and the political landscape. He outlines how Trump is currently on a losing streak, facing setbacks in courts across the nation, plummeting in political polls, and losing ground in the court of public opinion. He emphasizes that while Trump is preoccupied with his self-serving interests, the American people are suffering, and it's crucial to hold him accountable.Find Glenn on Substack: glennkirschner.substack.comSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
Hi Blubirds, It takes a lot to create a piece of art with someone, let alone an entire tarot deck with 78 pieces of hand-craft paintings and personal prayers. For this episode in the mini series, Lily and I really wanted to sit down and speak into the greatest teachings we've cultivated within our friendship over the last three years. We speak into the six pillars that have shaped our relationship: The many moments of tension that came through creating the Heavenly Bodies Tarot together, our time in the Amazon, and what happens when two very different people choose to remain in the fire rather than protect a false sense of harmony. (And it's quite a funny episode, at that). I feel this is a conversation a lot of women will relate to… what it takes to allow ourselves to be truly seen. It's really an exploration of the work beneath our meaningful connection. The difficult conversations, the mirrors we've become for one another, the willingness to tell the truth with love, and the beautiful depth that becomes available when friendship is treated with the same devotion we so often reserve for romantic partnership.

#1052 | Jamie's latest Substack note gets the deep dive treatment: United's newly published loan documents show a real, dated path to finally clearing the $550 million Glazer-era LBO debt. The new notes are repayable at par with no further interest from 10 June 2029, but only if it's tied to a "stadium financing event," with a matching change-of-control clause built to let INEOS take a majority stake without triggering repayment. It's complicated but clear. Jamie's model puts the realistic cost for a new stadium closer to £3.2 billion once a typical overrun is applied to the headline £2 billion figure, funded through some mix of club debt, owner equity, and external partners. Personal seat licences could plausibly raise several hundred million pounds on its own. The pod opens with City with Ed and Jamie still processing last week's guilty verdict and the Premier League timeline that could produce a sanction within months.

Episode OverviewOn this Casting Angles episode of The Articulate Fly, host Marvin Cash and Mac Brown, fly casting instructor at Mac Brown Fly Fish in Bryson City, North Carolina, unpack the biggest light bulb moment from Mac's recent casting mastery workshop: casting arc and applied power are inseparable, and many loop problems blamed on "too much power" are really a mismatch between the two. It is a practical lesson for any angler who wants cleaner loops at varying distances, and it arrives just as Western North Carolina anglers face a delayed start to the fall delayed harvest trout season.Mac explains why the same length of line can either unroll cleanly or turn into a tuck cast depending on how much force is applied across a given arc. He stresses reading the pace of the cast and shares a verbal cadence of "slow, slow, slow, fast" for timing the back cast. He also offers a quick yard drill that pairs a very slow stroke with a very narrow arc to show how easily minimal power overwhelms a short casting path. Marvin adds a power calibration drill built around rod noise and backing off until the loop collapses.The second half turns to conditions and news. The North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission is pushing delayed harvest stocking back a month to early November and stocking fewer fish after a brutally hot and dry summer, a hatchery renovation and heat-related fish kills. Mac celebrates Team USA's first-ever adult men's team and individual gold medals at the world championships in Idaho, led by Michael Bradley of Cherokee, and previews his four-day fall school. Cooler nights and fresh rain are finally dropping water temperatures on Southern Appalachian trout streams such as Deep Creek.Key TakeawaysHow to diagnose a tuck cast by reading the pace of the cast rather than assuming the problem is simply too much power.Why casting arc and applied power must be matched, so that a narrow arc needs far less effort than most anglers expect.How to use a "slow, slow, slow, fast" verbal cadence to time the back cast and stop rushing the stroke.How to find the minimum power for a symmetrical loop by backing off until the loop collapses and then adding just a touch of force back.Why a low frequency whoosh from the rod is an audible sign you are overpowering the cast.When to expect Western North Carolina delayed harvest stocking this fall and why a hot summer and hatchery setbacks pushed it to early November.Techniques & Gear CoveredThe core technique is matching casting arc to applied force: Mac uses the traditional clock face framework, such as a stroke from 10 o'clock to midnight, to show how excess force on a given arc produces a tuck cast instead of a line that simply unrolls. Marvin frames arc length as the runway for acceleration, noting that a longer stroke lets you build speed gradually and that overpowering the final pinky pull on a short runway produces a tuck. Mac's yard drill pairs a very slow forward stroke with a very narrow arc to form a tight loop, then widens the arc until effort and path match for a perfectly straight cast. Marvin's complementary drill uses the low frequency whoosh of the rod as feedback, backing power off until the loop collapses and then adding a smidge to establish a symmetrical foundation. Together the two drills put the caster in charge of both variables: the effort and the length of the path.Locations & SpeciesFall trout fishing in Western North Carolina starts later than usual this year, with the North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission delaying delayed harvest trout stocking by a month to the beginning of November and planning to stock fewer fish. The delay follows a brutally hot and dry summer, the closure of the Pisgah hatchery for a major renovation in late 2025 and fish kills at the Armstrong hatchery, where hot water on Armstrong Creek was made worse by tree cover lost to Hurricane Helene. Conditions for Southern Appalachian trout are improving, with four straight nights in the mid-40s, a three-inch rain after roughly two months without a significant one and noticeably cooler water on streams like Deep Creek. Marvin also notes that the Tennessee side of Great Smoky Mountains National Park has had plenty of water.FAQ / Key Questions AnsweredWhy does my fly line tuck on the back cast even when I'm not using much power?According to Mac Brown, arc and power are so interrelated that a tuck is often a mismatch between the two rather than simply too much power. With a very narrow arc, even minimal effort can be too much and turn the loop into a tuck. Widening the arc to match the effort you are applying produces a straight cast that simply unrolls.How do you know how much power a fly cast needs?Marvin Cash's drill is to keep backing off the power until the loop collapses, then add back just a smidge of force. That point is the foundation for a symmetrical cast. A low frequency whooshing sound from the rod is a reliable sign that you are using too much power.How should you time the back cast?Mac recommends saying "slow, slow, slow, fast" out loud as you make the back cast, which reflects how long the stroke should take. If the cast is already over by the time you reach the first "slow," you have applied too much force too early. Watching the pace of the cast is the quickest way to see whether timing is the problem.When does delayed harvest trout stocking start in Western North Carolina this fall?The North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission is delaying delayed harvest stocking by a month, so it will not begin until the beginning of November, and fewer fish will be stocked. The delay stems from a brutally hot and dry summer, the renovation of the Pisgah hatchery and heat-related fish kills at the Armstrong hatchery. Marvin suggests using the extra time for casting practice and skill work on the water.Related ContentS7, Ep 80 - Foundations of Fly Casting: Mastering Variability and Adaptability with Mac BrownS7, Ep 76 - From Repetition to Retention: The Path to Mastery in Fly CastingS8, Ep 7 - Casting Foundations and Fishing Frameworks: Insights with Mac BrownS8, Ep 67 - Elevate Your Cast: Mac Brown's Expert Tips on Haul Timing and Line SpeedS7, Ep 85 - Navigating Delayed Harvest: Mac Brown's Insights on Fall Fishing TacticsView All Casting Angles Episodes with Mac BrownConnect with Our GuestFollow Mac on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter.Follow the ShowFollow The Articulate Fly on Facebook, Instagram, Threads and YouTube.Follow our Substack newsletter for episode updates, tips and resources.Support the ShowShop through our Amazon link to support the podcast.Join our Patreon community to support the show.If you are in the industry and need help getting unstuck, learn more about our consulting options.Subscribe & AdvertiseSubscribe to the podcast in your favorite podcast app.Think our community is a good fit for your brand?

He connects that distinction to Scripture, the Catechism, and the different responsibilities of religious and lay people, especially husbands, fathers, and providers.He also responds to comments about the widow's mite, the rich young man, the Good Samaritan, and the prodigal son. Nathan argues that these passages support generosity, sacrifice, and detachment without implying that most lay people should pursue destitution. His main point: money is morally neutral but practically powerful, and Christians should discern how to use it for the good of their families and neighbors.Timestamps00:00 - Opening the conversation and responding to criticism05:18 - Virtue, extremes, and why poverty is different07:12 - Poverty is not a virtue, but a universal call is09:34 - Material poverty and poverty in spirit13:43 - Vows of poverty versus the lay vocation16:06 - How travel reshaped Nathan's view of poverty19:59 - Why avoidance is not the same as virtue22:45 - Why fathers should not subject their children to destitution23:13 - Money, family life, and providing for loved ones24:41 - Speaking to young men about ambition25:05 - Responding to comments about God, generosity, and the poor27:18 - The widow's mite and giving until it hurts32:07 - The Good Samaritan and the power to help37:51 - The rich young man and religious life41:14 - James on action, widows, and orphans42:53 - Money, options, discernment, and stewardship

Matt Lee-Ashley has a fascinating background in politics and public land policy. He served as the chief of staff and director of policy and programs for the White House council on environmental quality under the Biden administration, and served as a deputy chief of staff for the Department of the Interior.Ground Shift is a new project - Matt took on the Executive Director role in February of this year - but they are asking some big, fundamental questions about the structure of our public lands system here in the US. I've been fascinated by public land management for many years now. I serve on the board of directors for a non-profit called the Birds of Prey NCA Partnership, which is a friends group associated with the Morley Nelson Snake River Birds of Prey National Conservation Area. This National Conservation Area is just south of Boise, ID, where I live, and my involvement with this protected area shapes my perspective on public land management.I've seen the effects first hand of the current administration's efforts to dismantle the Bureau of Land Management, the agency responsible for managing my local National Conservation Area. I've interviewed a number of folks over the past few years about efforts to fight back against this dismantling, and I'm always disappointed by the limitations that these positive initiatives face.This is why I was so excited to speak with Matt. Ground Shift isn't shying away from big ideas. They are leaning into the chaos, and treating it like an opportunity. Their ideas cross partisan lines, and benefit from the growing public understanding that our systems and institutions tasked with managing public lands are fundamentally broken.I encourage folks to check out the Ground Shift website, where you'll find a series of essays written by a diverse array of prominent thinkers focused on public lands.

What happens if Republicans get crushed in November? Political scientist Seth Masket joins me to game out where the GOP goes after a midterm wipeout, and where it could take the rest of us.The polls suggest a blue wave is building, and Republicans have started putting a little distance between themselves and an unpopular president. But Seth's research shows that Democrats over-correct after they lose, while Republicans under-correct, and lately some deny the loss happened at all. So does a big defeat finally break Trump's hold on the party, or do Republicans end up needing him even more?In this episode:The one time Trump's favorability with Republicans actually dropped. It wasn't January 6th or his conviction.Why the window for Republicans to criticize Trump closes soon after November 3rdA Trump endorsement was worth about 16 points in 2022 GOP primariesIs Trump a "Giffen good" for Republican politicians?

In this episode of the Explaining History Podcast, we are joined by historian Peter Parker to discuss the remarkable rediscovery of James Courage's A Way of Love – widely regarded as the first gay novel by a New Zealander – and what it tells us about gay life in post-war Britain.First published in 1959 and banned in New Zealand in 1961, A Way of Love has returned to print after nearly seven decades. Set in 1950s London, it follows two men attempting to build a life together at a time when sex between men remained a criminal offence. Its timing is significant: it appeared two years after the Wolfenden Report recommended that homosexual acts between consenting adults in private should no longer be criminalised, but eight years before the partial decriminalisation introduced by the Sexual Offences Act of 1967.Peter Parker, author of Some Men in London volumes one and two – acclaimed anthologies of gay life in the capital – joins us to explore this fascinating transitional moment. Drawing on James Courage's extraordinary diary as well as the novel, we examine what it meant to be a gay man in a society where prosecution, censorship and social stigma were constant threats.We discuss the geography of gay life – the private members' clubs and pubs where men could relax and be amongst their own people – and the language they used, including the secret argot of Polari. We also explore the long struggle for legal reform, the resistance of the Metropolitan Police, and the cultural shifts that helped change attitudes – from the pioneering work of the Homosexual Law Reform Society to the impact of films like Victim (1961) and John Osborne's A Patriot for Me.Peter also reflects on the "happy ever after" problem in gay history: the assumption that rights appeared by magic overnight, rather than being won through decades of struggle, persecution and sacrifice.Topics covered:James Courage, A Way of Love, and its suppression and rediscoveryThe criminalisation of homosexuality and the Wolfenden ReportThe policing of gay life and the "pretty police"Gay clubs, pubs, and cultures of solidarityPolari and coded languageThe Homosexual Law Reform Society and the fight for legal changeVictim, A Patriot for Me, and stage censorshipThe pushback of AIDS and Clause 28Memory, martyrdom, and the unfinished struggle for equalityPeter Parker's Some Men in London volumes one and two are available from all good bookshops.
