For 80 meters, Kishane Thompson looked like the man to beat. Exploding out of the blocks in the men's 100-meter final at the 2025 World Championships in Tokyo, the Jamaican sprint sensation surged into the lead, his long, fluid strides daring the field to catch him.But just as in Paris a year ago, the closing meters would tell the story. This time it wasn't Noah Lyles, but his countryman Oblique Seville who reeled him in. Thompson crossed the line in 9.82 seconds, securing the silver medal behind Seville's blistering 9.77 – the fastest global final since 2019.For Thompson, it was validation: back-to-back podium finishes at the sport's biggest stages, and proof that Jamaica has not just one, but two world-class sprinters carrying the legacy of Bolt and Blake into a new era.His silver, paired with Seville's gold, delivered Jamaica's first men's 100m 1–2 at a global championship since the London Olympics.He spoke to Anderson Emerole about the 100m final at the World Championships.____________Host: Anderson Emerole | @atkoeme on InstagramGuest: Kishane Thompson | @ iamkishane_ on InstagramProduced by: Jasmine Fehr | @jasminefehr on Instagram____________PRESENTED BY ASICSFor the third consecutive year, CITIUS MAG is proud to partner with ASICS for our global championship coverage.

Even though the Chargers game shaved an hour off the show, Tim Conway Jr. packed three hours of laughs into two. From almost making it to the L.A. Zoo (“Everyone wins at the Zoo!”), to hilarious takes on birth order quirks and getting hit on in traffic stops, Conway and crew didn't miss a beat. Thompson getting pulled over turned into pure comedy. It's everything you love about the show, just in a tighter package.

Sometimes copy fails because it's just not executed well enough. And also, copy that simply misses the mark — doesn't align with the target prospects and what's on their minds — won't do well either. But you can have all the fundamentals in place and done well, and sales can still fail to happen. Why? That would be because the strategy behind the copy was weak or even non-existent. Today, we're talking about a blind spot that kills a lot of otherwise good copy—and how our special guest today, Jamie Thompson, coaches copywriters how to see what others miss entirely. That would be, of course, strategy and strategic thinking. Jamie's a seasoned pro. Headquartered in Edinburgh, Scotland, he's been writing copy for 10 years and counts among his clients such giants as Amazon, USAID, and Lenovo. But he's had many other clients—over 500 in all. And lately he's made it his mission to teach copywriters how to think like strategists. 80% of Jamie's clients come back for return engagements. So you'll definitely want to know some of what he knows.

At the end of August, archaeologists announced extraordinary new finds from the sunken city of Canopus, located off the coast of Alexandria, Egypt. For the first time in 25 years, artifacts were raised from the seabed, including a sphinx inscribed with Ramses II's name, statues from the Ptolemaic and Roman eras, and shipwreck remains.In this episode, we'll explore both these latest underwater discoveries and geological surveys that are helping researchers understand what caused Canopus to sink, because understanding how people of the past adapted to disasters could help us find solutions for today's climate-threatened coastal cities.Listen now to learn about the artifacts, myths, and history of Canopus.TranscriptsFor transcripts of this episode head over to: https://archpodnet.com/tpm/22Links and ReferencesSee photos related to episode topics on InstagramLoving the macabre lore?

On Charlie Kirk's assassination, media bias, and the unraveling of American unity. Candid, challenging, and unfiltered.. Broadcast September 12, 2025, on WWCR 4840 kHz, this episode confronts one of the most volatile weeks in recent memory. Thompson examines the murder of Charlie Kirk, the killing of Ukrainian refugee Iryna Zarutska, and the selective coverage (and outrage) that followed. Together, these stories reveal how far the boundaries of political discourse have collapsed and how normalized violence has become in a fractured culture. Todd explores the deeper pattern: how identity politics has replaced shared citizenship, how media narratives are weaponized to excuse or inflame, and how the political class falls back on stale platitudes about “lowering the rhetoric” while the fire continues to spread. The episode also briefly connects to foreign influence strategies, where outside actors and digital platforms amplify division rather than heal it. Todd closes with reflections on the anniversary of September 11th. He contrasts the fleeting unity of 2001, when flags flew in every neighborhood and the idea of America still bound people together, with the rabid tribalism of today. The question is no longer how to recover unity, but whether unity is even possible in a culture where grievance trumps allegiance. The conclusion is blunt and unsparing: America's “Humpty Dumpty” has fallen, and no amount of political spin can put it back together again. What remains is the fight over how people will live inside the fracture and whether patriotism can still serve as a bond strong enough to resist collapse. Not surprisingly, this podcast and The Holy Algorithm are bitter enemies! Rate, review, and share, please!

In this special “underdog” episode from Nice, host Matt Lieto shifts the focus from the perennial favorites to three rising stars and dark horses who are poised to shake up the IRONMAN World Championship: Jamie Riddle, Harry Palmer, and Nick Thompson.First, South African Jamie Riddle talks about his rapid evolution in long-course racing, having only done his first IRONMAN earlier this year. He shares key lessons from a transformative training camp with Sam Laidlow, emphasizing a newfound focus on smart, controlled training over constant high intensity. Confident in his abilities, Riddle details his plan to use his explosive swim speed to help create an early breakaway before settling in and playing his cards late in the marathon.Next, the UK's Harry Palmer, another rookie at the World Championship, discusses how a “bonus race” mentality is keeping him relaxed and focused. After a busy season that saw him buy his first house while racing five times in two months, he reflects on the balance between being a professional athlete and a content creator. Palmer shares his strategy for the challenging course, which involves respecting the distance, staying patient, and executing his own race plan, knowing a top-15 finish would be a massive success.Finally, Australian Nick Thompson, aka “the silent horse,” opens up about his journey. He talks about the confidence gained from a strong season, including a breakthrough performance at IRONMAN Cairns and a podium at the IRONMAN 70.3 World Championship in Zell am See. Thompson shares a powerful and personal source of motivation—the resilience of a close friend who survived a serious cycling accident—that fuels his incredible fight and determination on the race course, reminding him to dig deep when it matters most.

In the Public Interest is excited to continue In That Case, its third annual miniseries examining notable decisions recently issued by the US Supreme Court. In this episode, guest host Tom Saunders speaks with Amanda Masselam Strachan, a WilmerHale partner and member of the firm's white-collar defense and investigations practice, about two fraud cases that were decided this term.While Kousisis concerns if there needs to be economic harm done during a commercial exchange for a perpetrator to be convicted of wire fraud, Thompson is centered on whether misleading but true statements are criminalized as false statements under the mortgage fraud statute. Masselam Strachan breaks down the specifics of both cases, and in comparing them with one another, explains the impact these decisions have on federal fraud claims.

Victorious came into real estate as a flipper/wholesaler in 2017, closing ~150 deals across Georgia and South Carolina. When COVID froze bank lending, he learned to raise private capital, shifted toward debt over equity to stay nimble, and built a relationship-driven machine that now fuels his investing and brokerage teams (he's with eXp).

rWotD Episode 3051: Charlie Oliver (trade unionist) Welcome to random Wiki of the Day, your journey through Wikipedia's vast and varied content, one random article at a time.The random article for Wednesday, 10 September 2025, is Charlie Oliver (trade unionist).Cecil Thompson "Charlie" Oliver AM (23 December 1901 – 24 February 1990) was an Australian trade unionist and politician. He was a Labor Party member of the Legislative Assembly of Western Australia from 1948 to 1951, representing the seat of Boulder, and was later prominent in the labour movement in New South Wales as the state secretary (1951–1978) and state president (1980–1985) of the Australian Workers' Union.Oliver was born in Bangor, Carnarvonshire, Wales, to Elizabeth (née Thompson) and John Murray Oliver. His family moved to England when he was a child, living first in Chester and later in Liverpool. He left school at the age of 13 to work as an agricultural labourer, and emigrated to Western Australia after World War I with an older brother. Oliver initially settled in Meekatharra, where he worked as a miner, and later also lived in Koolanooka, Perenjori, and Big Bell. He joined the Australian Workers' Union (AWU) in 1923, and in 1942 accepted a position as a district-level organiser.In 1943, Oliver was appointed state secretary of the AWU's mining division, which was based in Boulder. He entered parliament at the 1948 Boulder by-election, which had been caused by the death of Philip Collier (a former premier). His chief opponent was the Liberal Party candidate, Billy Snedden, who was a future federal Leader of the Opposition. Oliver was re-elected unopposed at the 1950 state election, but felt under-utilised in parliament, and in mid-1951 resigned to accept a position as the AWU's New South Wales state secretary.Oliver remained AWU state secretary until 1978, helping to improve the union's finances and membership numbers. He then served as AWU state president from 1980 to 1985. Oliver also served as ALP state vice-president during the 1955 party split, and was credited with helping to reduce its impact. He was elected state president of the party in 1960, and remained in the position until his voluntary resignation in 1970, although the party won only a single state election during that time (in 1962). In retirement, Oliver lived in Sydney, dying there in February 1990 (aged 88). He had been made a Member of the Order of Australia (AM) in 1984, "for services to trade unionism".This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 00:16 UTC on Wednesday, 10 September 2025.For the full current version of the article, see Charlie Oliver (trade unionist) on Wikipedia.This podcast uses content from Wikipedia under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.Visit our archives at wikioftheday.com and subscribe to stay updated on new episodes.Follow us on Mastodon at @wikioftheday@masto.ai.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm standard Brian.
Dr. Curt Thompson (https://curtthompsonmd.com/) is a widely known expert in interpersonal neurobiology, and I could not be more excited for you to hear this episode. Dr. Thompson's genuine love and care for people shines brightly in this conversation where he highlights his unique insights about how the brain affects and processes relationships. Dr. Thompson focuses on what we all as humans want— to be known— and how shame and trauma keep us in hiding. He shares about the non-profit he founded, The Center for Being Known (https://www.thecbk.org/), and the “confessional communities” that are part of the Center. These communities, Dr. Thompson shares, foster an environment where people feel seen, soothed, safe, and secure, which leads to a deeper relationship with God and others. Dr. Thompson not only shares his expertise and wisdom but also some of his personal story of parenting an adult child who struggled with a mental health issue. Dr. Thompson is also the host of The Being Know Podcast (https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/being-known-podcast/id1556261828), which helps people discover and explore what it means to be truly known.
Notes and Links to Wright Thompson's Work Widely regarded as one of the nation's leading sports journalists, Wright Thompson is a senior writer for ESPN, an Emmy Award-winning reporter, and the executive producer of the TV show TrueSouth. He is the author of several bestselling books including Pappyland, about the storied whiskey distillery, and, most recently, The Barn: The Secret History of a Murder in Mississippi, a New York Times bestseller that confronts the haunting legacy of Emmett Till's killing. A Mississippi native, Thompson is at heart a southern storyteller who believes that understanding the place one lives is both an obligation and an act of love.

One of the big topics at the conference this summer was the use of large language models in the research process, especially in qualitative studies. We expand this discussion by asking: can qualitative research be automated—or augmented? Yes and no. Some of the advantages LLMs bring to the table are hard to ignore. LLMs can act as critical reviewers, as a consistency checker, as a provider of alternative perspectives on unstructured data, or to break path dependencies in the process of data analysis. They can also help find interesting outcomes that qualitative insights could explain. At the same time, the use of LLMs comes with thorny pitfalls. We know they are unreliable and hallucinate. And the output they create is… average at best. So if you use LLMs, make sure you are not using it for automation—do not lose touch with your craft or your data. Whatever tool you use, make sure you remain a virtuous scholar. Episode reading list Noblit, G. W., & Hare, R. D. (1988). Meta-Ethnography: Synthesising Qualitative Studies. Sage. Recker, J. (2021).

Luke 14:25-33 Now large crowds were traveling with Jesus; and he turned and said to them, "Whoever comes to me and does not hate father and mother, wife and children, brothers and sisters, yes, and even life itself, cannot be my disciple. Whoever does not carry the cross and follow me cannot be my disciple. For which of you, intending to build a tower, does not first sit down and estimate the cost, to see whether he has enough to complete it? Otherwise, when he has laid a foundation and is not able to finish, all who see it will begin to ridicule him, saying, `This fellow began to build and was not able to finish.' Or what king, going out to wage war against another king, will not sit down first and consider whether he is able with ten thousand to oppose the one who comes against him with twenty thousand? If he cannot, then, while the other is still far away, he sends a delegation and asks for the terms of peace. So therefore, none of you can become my disciple if you do not give up all your possessions."

In today's episode of The Rickey Smiley Morning Show, several high-profile stories were discussed. Cardi B was found not liable in a civil assault trial involving a former security guard, Emani Ellis, who accused the rapper of assault and emotional distress during a 2018 incident at a Beverly Hills OB/GYN clinic. The Los Angeles jury deliberated for about an hour before unanimously ruling in Cardi B's favor, rejecting claims that she spit on Ellis, physically assaulted her, or used racial slurs. Cardi B testified that while the argument became heated and intense, there was no physical contact. The jury sided with Cardi, clearing her of all civil liability. In other news, Porsha Williams has been granted another legal victory amid her ongoing divorce from Simon Guobadia. A judge ruled that the formal couple's prenuptial agreement would be enforced, meaning Williams will receive $40,000 per month in alimony for 15 months and have her legal fees paid.
