Welcome back to Watch With Jen. Just in time for the fifth anniversary of the podcast (which officially began on March 3, 2020), I'm releasing the first of at least a two-part episode devoted to L.A. Movies. Like everyone else, I watched in horror as the Santa Ana wind wildfires ripped through a city that I dearly love at the start of 2025. Unable to contribute financially to the many worthy charities and Go Fund Me accounts that were launched in its wake, nor volunteer on the ground from where I live in Phoenix, I figured the next best thing that I could do was to pay tribute to some of the wonderfully rich, diverse, & creatively inspiring films that have been made in the city. My earnest hope is that it might inspire more productions to shoot there in the future (which would bring necessary jobs back to L.A.) and also to give listeners a nice little reprieve from the stresses of this impossibly difficult year. Each week has felt like its own horror movie for so many people in my orbit, including myself. Our inaugural episode for season six features a staggeringly great lineup of artists & film minds. You'll hear from CALIFORNIA BEAR author Duane Swierczynski on JACKIE BROWN, Senior Vice President of The Black List Kate Hagen on MIRACLE MILE, film critic and UC Denver professor Walter Chaw on THE DRIVER & HICKEY & BOGGS, and WHO INVITED THEM filmmaker and author Duncan Birmingham on SWINGERS. A feature length tour of Los Angeles in the movies, I hope you enjoy the launch of Season 6. And as we head into my favorite season, perhaps it'll inspire you to get ready to visit the City of Angels again or at the very least, eagerly anticipate the second part of these talks which wander into Lynchian and Friedkin territory. Thank you so much for joining me these past five years; we'll be hitting the 250th episode of the podcast this season which is mind-boggling to me & I couldn't do it without your support.Originally Posted on Patreon (3/3/25) here: https://www.patreon.com/posts/123479696Theme Music: Solo Acoustic Guitar by Jason Shaw, Free Music Archive Shop Watch With Jen logo Merchandise in Logo Designer Kate Gabrielle's Threadless Shop (+ Direct Link to the Mug) Donate to the Pod via Ko-fi

In this episode of Audio QT, Karma Chávez talks with allgo co-founder and activist María Limón about her work supporting people living with HIV and AIDS in the early days of the pandemic, and the program called Informe Sida. This interview was recorded on December 1, 2021 and originally aired on KOOP Radio's People United program on Dec. 10. Thanks to Allan Campbell and KOOP for permission to reuse. María Limón, nacida y criada a la orilla del río que antes era grande, she finished raising herself among a circle of activists tending to issues as diverse as the gentrification of the East Side, getting the Texas national guard out of Honduras, and ensuring that Cuba stayed libre. Her fifteen minutes of fame involved the Austin police department flexing their authoritarian muscle at an anti-KKK rally and helping establish one of the longest-running queer POC organizations in the country while learning how to help close friends die. Having learned that changing the conditions that create injustice and inequality happens one meaningful connection at a time, she coaches people on uprooting the beliefs about ourselves and others an oppressive society shoves down our throats. UC Denver's Center on Domestic Violence provides the salary that brings home the fakin' bacon. Karma Chávez is an associate professor and chair of the Department of Mexican American and Latina/o Studies at UT.

In this podcast, we ask the question, how dangerous is football? As one of America's most played sports, you need to know just what the risks are. Hi everyone.  I hope you have been enjoying listening to these podcasts as much as I have enjoyed recording them.  If you know anyone who might also enjoy listening to the podcast as well, please feel free to share it with them.  It would be much appreciated. Today’s podcast is Football: Who doesn’t love a concussion First off, for those joining me today outside the US, we are discussing American football.  I fully admit that for those of you who play rugby, are MMA fighters or bull-riders, American football isn’t that much of a contact sport.  However, for most of the US, football is the physical, high contact sport.  In my podcast on statistics, we discussed a study on brain injury among football players.  The claim often made about the study was that 99% of all football players suffered from brain injuries which wasn't a valid conclusion for the study.  That study did get me wondering how dangerous football really is. Just for full transparency, playing sports isn't something I enjoy much.  I played a little soccer as a kid and in high school, the closest I came to team sports was cross-country running and wrestling. As a father, one of my boys played football prior to high school and since he enjoyed it, I supported his decision to play.  However, I do remember attending his 6th-grade end of year football banquet.  The introduced the players individually and said something about their accomplishments.  I do remember that a large number of boys had spent at least part of the season not playing due to injuries.  At the end of the introductions, the coach mentioned it too saying "if you don't get hurt playing football, then you probably aren't playing hard enough".  To this day, I'm trying to find something important enough about 6th-grade football to justify an injury that could be with you for a lifetime. However, I never really actually looked at the data to see if my opinion had any validity. First off, let’s take a look at youth football.  Most people would agree that youth football isn’t comparable to college football and that college football isn’t very similar to professional football. High school football injury statistics According to Stanford, 3.5 million children 14 and under get hurt every year from sports and recreational activities.  About 215k children visited the emergency room due to football injuries (both organized and informal).  Just to put this in perspective, the number injured in bicycling accidents was 200K, basketball 170K, skateboarding/inline skating 113k, baseball/softball 110k, soccer 88k, and trampolines 65K.  All of these were compared to 215K football injuries.  As you can see, a lot of children 14 and younger visit the emergency room. A different study by UC Denver has been tracking sports injuries at selected schools since 2005.  They estimate that annually there are 1.2-1.4 million high school sports injuries per year across all sports.  From 2013-2018 football accounted for 39% of all injuries.  For comparison, girl’s soccer was 17%, boy’s soccer 12%, boy’s basketball 6%, and girl’s volleyball 4% of high school sports injuries. However, keep in mind that the different sports have different team sizes.  A football team with 50 players would be expected to have higher total injuries than a basketball team with 15 players.  The injury rate, which takes into account the actual numbers of individuals playing each sport, for football from 2005-2018 was 3.9%.  With girls’ soccer at 2.4%, boys’ soccer 1.8%, boys basketball 1.5%, and girls volleyball 1.2%. As would be expected, football has higher injury rates than lower contact sports.  With football, the primary injury of concern has been head injuries.  In 2018, head injuries were 21.7% of football injuries, with ankle 12%, knee 7.9%, hip 5.6%,

We talk about Jordan Peele’s films “Get Out” and “Us,” how he’s challenging the representations of black characters in horror film, and how the themes and tropes of horror have changed in the films of the past decade. This episode features Dr. Andrew Scahill and the students of Dr. Sarah Hagelin’s film theory class from UC Denver and Kyle Harris from Westword.

In celebration of our first episode, we held a live roundtable discussion to continue the conversation about the Handmaid's Tale.
