This galaxy is believed to be composed of about 99% dark matter, making it one of the most dark matter-dominated galaxies ever detected. The findings, published in Astrophysical Research Letters, reveal that dark matter constitutes roughly 80% of the universe's total matter, and CDG2's faint presence was confirmed through observations of its globular clusters using NASA's Hubble Space Telescope and the European Space Agency's Euclid Space Observatory.Artemis 2 Mission Delayed AgainNASA has announced another delay for the Artemis 2 mission, which aims to return humans to lunar orbit for the first time in over 50 years. A helium leak discovered in the Space Launch System (SLS) rocket's upper stage has prompted the agency to roll back the launch vehicle to the vehicle assembly building for repairs. This setback eliminates the potential for a March launch, with the next available windows opening in early April. The Artemis 2 mission will carry a crew of four on a 10-day journey to the Moon, including critical system tests and satellite deployments.Australia's Hypersonic Scramjet Launch ImminentAn Australian company is set to test its new hypersonic scramjet-powered aircraft, the Dart AE, before the end of the month. This innovative vehicle will utilize a 3D printed Spartan Scramjet engine, designed to operate at speeds exceeding Mach 5 with liquid hydrogen fuel. The mission, codenamed Cassowary Vex, will launch aboard a Rocket Lab electron rocket and aims to validate the scramjet propulsion system under real hypersonic flight conditions while producing zero carbon emissions.www.spacetimewithstuartgary.com✍️ Episode ReferencesAstrophysical Research LettersBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/spacetime-with-stuart-gary--2458531/support.

UnErasing LGBTQ History and Identities: A Podcast for Teachers
For decades, much of what we knew about Cathay Williams came from military documents and a newspaper article published in 1876. But as historians continue to study Cathay's life, new questions arise. What if we've had the story backwards this entire time? History UnErased is putting LGBTQ history in its rightful place — the classroom. UnErased.org
Tucker Carlson has long been a standard-bearer for far-right views, such as the racist conspiracy theory known as the “great replacement.” He recently did a chatty interview with the white supremacist Nick Fuentes, an admirer of Hitler. And yet, Carlson started out as a respected, well-connected, albeit contrarian, political journalist. Jason Zengerle, who recently joined The New Yorker as a staff writer, talks with David Remnick about his new book, “Hated by All the Right People: Tucker Carlson and the Unraveling of the Conservative Mind.” They trace how Carlson's sense of personal resentment toward the establishment grew; how launching his own website radicalized his politics in the years before MAGA; and his political ambitions as a potential heir to Donald Trump. “I think, if Tucker Carlson concludes that J. D. Vance can't get elected President, maybe he has to do it himself,” Zengerle says. “So much of politics now is just being a media figure and being an entertainer. And Tucker does those things very well. . . . I think our politics are at a place where that really doesn't seem as outrageous as it would have even just a couple years ago.” This segment originally aired on January 23, 2025. The Political Scene draws on the reporting and analysis found in The New Yorker for lively conversations about the big questions in American politics. Join the magazine's writers and editors as they put into context the latest news—about elections, the economy, the White House, the Supreme Court, and much more.

The silk produced by spiders is very different from the silk produced by silkworms in some very important ways. While silkworm silk is strong yet not prone to stretching, spiders make silk that is both strong and stretchy. They also make several different kinds of silk, each with its own purpose.In fact, spider silk is stronger than an equal amount of steel and yet it stretches. Spider silk is made of nothing more than proteins. However, scientists are finding it extremely difficult to study the chemical structure of spider silk because it resists most of their efforts to break it down into its chemical parts. Scientists have finally resorted to hot, concentrated acids to break down the silk. They are learning that one type of spider silk is made up of lengths of very stiff amino acids, separated by segments of amino acids that form a springy helix. Together they contribute to the strength and stretchiness of spider silk.Scientists are exploring how spider silk is made, because this wonderful material promises new methods for creating stronger and lighter materials for human use. One possible use would be making cloth that is both comfortable and bulletproof.God has done all things well. The fact that we can learn to design better things by learning how He designed things is a witness for His wisdom as well as a witness against claims that the creation designed itself by trial and error. However, there is much more to God's plans for us, as you can learn from the Bible.Colossians 1:15-16"Who is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of every creature: For by him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by him, and for him:"Prayer: Father, I praise You, for You have wisely and wonderfully made all things. I especially praise You for Your love and plan of salvation for me through the forgiveness of my sins because of what Jesus Christ has done for me. In His Name. Amen.REF: Amato, I.

Why is cows' milk, which few nonwhite people can digest, promoted as a science-backed dietary necessity in countries where the majority of the population is lactose-intolerant? Why are gigantic new dairy farms permitted to deplete the sparse water resources of desert ecosystems? Why do thousands of U.S. dairy farmers every year give up after struggling to recoup production costs against plummeting wholesale prices? Exploring these questions and many more, Spoiled: The Myth of Milk as Superfood (Columbia UP, 2023) is an unflinching and meticulous critique of the glorification of fluid milk and its alleged universal benefits. Anne Mendelson's groundbreaking book chronicles the story of milk from the Stone Age peoples who first domesticated cows, goats, and sheep to today's troubled dairy industry. Spoiled shows that drinking fresh milk was rare until Western scientific experts who were unaware of genetic differences in the ability to digest lactose deemed it superior to traditional fermented dairy products. Their flawed beliefs fueled the growth of a massive and environmentally devastating industry that turned milk into a cheap, ubiquitous commodity. Mendelson's wide-ranging account also examines the consequences of homogenization and refrigeration technologies, the toll that modern farming takes on dairy cows, and changing perceptions of raw milk since the advent of pasteurization. Unraveling the myths and misconceptions that prop up the dairy industry, Spoiled calls for more sustainable, healthful futures in our relationship with milk and the animals that provide it.

In this study we will take a look at the women within the Bible. We will look at each one of them and see how their story influences our lives today.In this first study we will start with EveI will begin in Chapter 3 verse 5.We finished up in our study with the serpent assuring Eve that she will not die! This would be Satan's second utterance! A Contradiction of Yahweh's Word in chapter 2:17. Take note the fact that Satan emphasizes his statement with the word ‘surely'. Satan tries to be like Yahweh. 5 opened = were opened [to wickedness] the knowledge attained is neither of happiness, wisdom or power, but of consciousness of sin and its conflict with the will of Yahweh. Next come shame, fear and the attempt to hide.7 Knew = they knew before, but their knowledge now received a new meaning. Adam becomes “naked” by losing something of Yahweh's glorious likeness. Could Romans 8:3 refer to this? “For what the law could not do, in that it was weak through the flesh, Yahweh sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, and for sin, condemned sin in the flesh: That the righteousness of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.” Naked = “ay-ram” from 6191, nudity; 6191 = “aw-ram” to be [or make] bare, but used only in a derivate sense [through the idea of perhaps of smoothness] to be cunning [usually in a bad sense]8 voice = “kole, kole” meaning to call aloud; a voice or sound: crackling of footstepsIn the Hebrew text we see the Hebrew word ‘eth'. Which is the letters Alph and Tav.Aleph = The original pictograph for this letter is a picture of an ox head representing strength and power from the work performed by the animal. This pictograph also represents a chief or other leader. When two oxen are yoked together for pulling a wagon or plow, one is the older and more experienced one who leads the other. Tav = The Ancient picture is a type of "mark", probably of two sticks crossed to mark a place similar to the Egyptian hieroglyph of, a picture of two crossed sticks. This letter has the meanings of mark, sign or signature.By placing this Hebrew word ‘eth' within this verse, shows us that it is no doubt Yahweh who is calling them.Cool of the day is literally “the breeze of the day.”cool = “ruach” spirit. Since Yahweh is a Spirit, could it be possible that they may have heard the movement of His Spirit going through the garden? 9 where art thou = the first question in the Old Testament come from Yahweh to the sinner, whereas in the New Testament, the first question of the seeking sinner, “Where is He?” Matthew 2:210 I was afraid, because I was naked = See the immediate consequences of sin. 1) Shame, because of the ingratitude marked in the rebellion, and because that in aiming to be like Yahweh they were now sunk into a state of the greatest wretchedness. 2) Fear, because they saw they had been deceived by Satan, and were exposed to that death and punishment from which he had promised them an exemption.11 Hast thou eaten? = An opportunity is given Adam for full confessions and expression of repentance. A sin unconfessed and unrepented is a sin constantly committed.12 the man = eth-ha-adahamthe woman = showing the true nature of a sinful man, always passing the buckthou gavest = Boy, Adam is really showing his colors or nakedness. Now he is passing the buck to the one that created him!Join me as we go Chapter by Chapter, Verse by Verse, Unraveling the Words of Yahweh!Have any questions?

Why is cows' milk, which few nonwhite people can digest, promoted as a science-backed dietary necessity in countries where the majority of the population is lactose-intolerant? Why are gigantic new dairy farms permitted to deplete the sparse water resources of desert ecosystems? Why do thousands of U.S. dairy farmers every year give up after struggling to recoup production costs against plummeting wholesale prices? Exploring these questions and many more, Spoiled: The Myth of Milk as Superfood (Columbia UP, 2023) is an unflinching and meticulous critique of the glorification of fluid milk and its alleged universal benefits. Anne Mendelson's groundbreaking book chronicles the story of milk from the Stone Age peoples who first domesticated cows, goats, and sheep to today's troubled dairy industry. Spoiled shows that drinking fresh milk was rare until Western scientific experts who were unaware of genetic differences in the ability to digest lactose deemed it superior to traditional fermented dairy products. Their flawed beliefs fueled the growth of a massive and environmentally devastating industry that turned milk into a cheap, ubiquitous commodity. Mendelson's wide-ranging account also examines the consequences of homogenization and refrigeration technologies, the toll that modern farming takes on dairy cows, and changing perceptions of raw milk since the advent of pasteurization. Unraveling the myths and misconceptions that prop up the dairy industry, Spoiled calls for more sustainable, healthful futures in our relationship with milk and the animals that provide it.

Episode #1099 What do you do when your wife tells you she's been faking it for 30 years? Is it a test? Is she trying to get a reaction? Or is this the beginning of the end? In this episode, we unpack a real story from one of our men whose wife told him she was never truly attracted to him and only stayed for the kids. Most guys would get defensive. They'd argue the facts. They'd collapse into shame. Or they'd chase. He didn't. He stayed grounded. He stayed curious. He didn't make it about himself. And that response alone changed the dynamic. We talk about what a safety test actually is and why so many men fail it. We break down how to hear the emotion underneath the words instead of reacting to the content. And we get honest about the other possibility too, that maybe it's not a test at all. Maybe it's complete. If that's the case, how do you move forward without falling apart? How do you make sure your worth isn't tied to the relationship? How do you handle it in a way you can look back on without regret? This is a real conversation about staying steady when everything feels uncertain. About not chasing. Not collapsing. Not reacting. But standing firm in who you are, whether the marriage rebuilds or ends. If your relationship feels shaky right now, this episode will challenge you in the right way. If you're not sure where your marriage stands and you want clarity on what to do next, we've put together a free training that walks you through the exact framework we use to help men turn things around.

The Wild & Waking Journey: Reclamation is Part 3 of a four-part solo series exploring the Wild & Waking Framework—a cyclical, soul-deep map for identity evolution, embodied leadership, and aligned living. In this episode, Emily guides the listener into The Reclamation, the phase where everything begins to click. After Unraveling what no longer fits and Remembering your deeper truth, Reclamation is where you consciously choose to live differently, and begin embodying who you are becoming in real time.The Reclamation is the sacred middle. It is the integration phase where clarity turns into courage and insight becomes action. Like earth, this stage is about rooting and rising. What once felt abstract now becomes tangible: boundaries spoken aloud, standards set, decisions made from self-trust rather than urgency or survival. Emily explores how this phase shows up across identity, work, relationships, spirituality, values, and leadership, and why Reclamation isn't about throwing everything out, but intentionally choosing what truly fits and letting the rest fall away.In this episode, Emily shares real-life examples of Reclamation in motion, from redefining success and worth, to releasing people-pleasing, to setting unapologetic standards around time, energy, and capacity. She unpacks why integration has a “lag period,” why embodiment takes practice, and how identity is one reclaimed, aligned choice at a time. This phase is not loud or flashy; it's subtle, steady, and often uncomfortable, but it's where self-trust is built and freedom begins to take shape from the inside out.You'll also hear how Reclamation invites you to expand your capacity to be seen, heard, and held, especially when your choices disrupt expectations or disappoint others. Emily reflects on the courage it takes to lead from vision rather than validation, to trust yourself before external proof appears, and to stop managing other people's perceptions at the cost of self-abandonment. This is where identity stops being conceptual and starts becoming embodied.To close, Emily offers grounding reflection questions to support your own Reclamation—inviting you to name the boundaries that would most protect your energy, the truths that need your voice, and the small aligned experiments that will stretch your capacity. If you're in the phase of choosing differently, rebuilding your identity, and learning to walk as the woman you've remembered, this episode will meet you exactly where you are. Part 4 of the series, The Rise, continues next.In this episode, I explore:What The Reclamation phase of the Wild & Waking Framework really is — the sacred middle where identity integration beginsHow Reclamation follows Unraveling and Remembering, and why this is the phase where everything finally starts to clickWhy Reclamation isn't about burning everything down — but consciously choosing what fits and releasing what doesn'tThe role of grief, rage, and nuance in rebuilding identity after deconstruction or awakeningWhy embodiment takes time — and how integration often has a “lag period” before it feels naturalHow to stop seeking validation and begin leading from self-trust, even when others don't understandTaking bold, aligned action from your new identity, not urgency or old survival patterns

In this study we will take a look at the women within the Bible. We will look at each one of them and see how their story influences our lives today.In this first study we will start with Eve.Eve was the first woman. Independent and curious, she disobeyed Yahweh's commands. She ate the forbidden fruit, (more on this later) setting forth major change in the Garden of Eden - and human history.Although man and woman have different roles to play within marriage, as far as our standing with Yahweh is concerned, we are equal. We are both created in the image of Yahweh. We were both called to subdue the earth. I will begin in Chapter 3 verse 3.So far in this Chapter 3 we seen the serpent (nachash – shining one) talking with Eve. What we have seen here is that Satan's method of operation. Twisting Yahweh's Words, just as he tried to do in Matthew 4! In our last study we started to see what actually happened in the Garden of Eden between Satan and the women Eve.Based on the Hebrew words and their definitions, we can conclude that there may have been some kind of sexual relationship going on between Eve and Satan.Before you doubters want to tar and feather me let's not forget what is wrote in the Book of Job chapters 1 and 2.Buts' let's not forget the real reason of the sin! Whether or not Satan and Eve had some type of sexual encounter, we have to look at the real reason for Eve's downfall.Once again what was her downfall?Not obeying the Words of Yahweh! Remember what Yahweh said in 2:16-17?Gen 2:16 And Adonai Yahweh commanded the man, saying, Of every tree of the garden thou mayest freely eat: Gen 2:17 But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die. But what did Eve say;Gen 3:2 And the woman said unto the serpent, We may eat of the fruit of the trees of the garden: Gen 3:3 But of the fruit of the tree which is in the midst of the garden, Elohim hath said, Ye shall not eat of it, neither shall ye touch it, lest ye die.So we see that we have 2 problems within this verse 3.First of all ‘neither shall ye touch it.' This sentence is added. Compare Gen. 2:17, 18. There is another word in this verse we need to consider, and it is the word "touch". Yahweh's command to Eve was; "neither shall ye touch it. "The Hebrew word for "touch" is # H5060 in the Strong's dictionary is (Naga, a prime root, prop. to touch, i.e., lay the hand upon (for the purpose; euphemism, to lie with a woman), to reach), So we see that the warning to Adam and Eve specifically, was to stay away from Satan called both the "serpent", and the "tree of good and evil". The fruit of that tree was not to be taken; and we know that the "fruit" as the results of a sexual relationship between any man and woman is a child. Yahweh's command was that Eve "not touch (lay with Satan)." So, we see that the order by Yahweh is that Eve not have sexual union with Satan. Secondly, lest ye die. This is misquoted from Gen.2:16, 17, by not repeating the emphatic Figure Polyptoton, thus changing the emphasize preserved in the word "surely". I discuss how Freemasonry worships Lucifer as their godWhat do I think Adam's sin was? Keep in mind that Adam knew the command of Yahweh. In fact Adam knew the command before Yahweh formed Eve!

A recent study published in Physical Review Letters suggests that the mysterious high-energy neutrino detected in 2023 may have originated from a quasi-extremal primordial black hole. This type of black hole, theorized to exist since the Big Bang, could explain the otherwise unexplainable energy levels of the neutrino and potentially unlock the secrets of dark matter and the fundamental nature of the universe.Mars' Dust Storms and Water LossNew research published in Communications Earth and Environment reveals that localized dust storms on Mars may play a significant role in the planet's water loss. While Mars is currently a dry desert, evidence from its surface indicates a wetter past. The study shows that intense dust storms can transport water vapor to higher altitudes, facilitating its escape into space, thus contributing to the long-standing mystery of Martian water depletion.Plasma Daniel for Hypersonic TestingA groundbreaking facility known as the plasma tunnel is now being used by scientists and engineers to simulate the extreme conditions spacecraft face during atmospheric reentry.

A ransom figure that refuses to blend into the background can tell you two stories at once: one about a crime, and one about how we think. We dive into the Nancy Guthrie kidnapping with equal parts empathy and rigor, asking why six million became the headline number and what that specificity might signal. Along the way, we confront how modern media layers opinion over fact, shaping what millions believe before the evidence has room to breathe.We break down the “perfect” kidnapper myth and look at the tiny human tells that slip past masks: posture, gait, hand position, stride. These movement cues can be meaningful, but they're not magic, so we outline a simple method to examine footage without overreaching. Then we trace an unexpected trail through Tucson search results, noting where public grants, tribal organizations, and a high-profile TV moment involving Savannah Guthrie collide in the audience's mind. None of these items prove causation; they do, however, highlight how narratives form when numbers and news cycles echo each other.What emerges is a guide for thinking clearly under pressure. We keep compassion at the center, separate signal from spin, and challenge listeners to interrogate coincidences with documents, timelines, and independent checks. If six million is a meaningful clue, better evidence will surface; if it's static, careful scrutiny will strip it away. Join us for a grounded, candid exploration that values truth over heat and invites you to contribute what you know.

You've done the vision boards. You've raised your vibration. You manifested the thing, and two weeks later, reality snapped back like you never tried at all. This episode isn't about trying harder or finding another modality. It's about why change doesn't stick, and what happens when you address the patterns operating underneath your conscious efforts.Karen Cheong, who went from high-powered real estate to mapping distortion patterns at the blueprint level, explains why most spiritual work treats symptoms instead of source code, and what actually reorganizes reality.What You'll LearnWhy manifestations feel temporary: The difference between managing your energy and changing the frequency pattern that generates your default outcomesBlueprint-level distortion patterns: How unconscious templates (formed before language, logic, or conscious memory) quietly override your intentions and keep timelines "sticky"Timeline jumping without the woo: A practical explanation of why reality keeps resetting to familiar outcomes, and how shifting resonance at the quantum level makes the physical reorganize around youThe real reason "trying harder" backfires: Why effort-based spirituality often reinforces the distortion you're trying to escape, and what works insteadConsciousness, frequency, and the water analogy: A grounded framework for understanding vibration, density, and why changing things "upstream" collapses struggle downstreamWhy This Conversation Is Different Karen doesn't position herself as a guru or sell enlightenment as the finish line. She's direct about what doesn't work (bypassing, spiritual perfection, waiting for external fixes) and transparent about what does: addressing the actual frequency distortions that keep you looping. No fluff. No unverifiable claims. No suggestion that curiosity equals gullibility.This is a conversation for people who've noticed the pattern...the same issue in a new costume...and are ready to stop editing the symptoms.You're Not Crazy (And Questioning Is Welcome) If you've wondered why your spiritual practice feels like pushing a boulder uphill, or why breakthroughs don't seem to compound, this episode offers context without asking you to believe anything. Karen speaks to the intelligent skeptic: someone open to metaphysics but allergic to dogma, someone who wants practical understanding over mystical performance.Spiritual awakening isn't about transcending your humanness. It's about editing the unconscious distortions so your conscious efforts actually land.Ready to explore?Listen now and decide for yourself whether this reframes how you approach growth, manifestation, and why your reality keeps snapping back.Bonus for listenersKaren is offering an exclusive Resonance Reboot Bundle (valued at $600)...

Tune in here to this Wednesday's edition of the Brett Winterble Show! Brett kicks off the program by talking about the chaotic Guthrie investigation and the disturbing optics it presents for law enforcement in America. As wall-to-wall coverage shows investigators retracing steps, stopping cars, and searching homes with no clear progress, Brett questions how a high-profile disappearance can drag on for days without answers—and what that means for everyday people who vanish without media attention. Later Brett highlights widespread frustration with what callers describe as “Keystone Cop” law enforcement, apparent FBI inefficiencies, and the convenient disappearance of other major stories—like the Epstein files—from public focus. Brett then pivots to a strange and alarming episode involving a sudden NOTAM that briefly shut down El Paso International Airport for ten days, sparking speculation about cartel activity, unmanned aircraft entering U.S. airspace, and even potential foreign actors probing American defenses near critical military installations like Fort Bliss. Listen here for all of this and more on The Brett Winterble Show! For more from Brett Winterble check out his YouTube channel. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Researchers propose that a clump of fermionic dark matter might exert similar gravitational influence as the supermassive black hole at the galaxy's center, Sagittarius A. This theory challenges conventional understanding and is supported by data from the European Space Agency's Gaia mission, which mapped the galaxy's outer halo and rotational curve, indicating a potential new model for understanding galactic structures.Lunar Far Side's Cooler InteriorRecent findings published in Nature Geoscience indicate that the lunar far side may be significantly cooler than the near side. Analyzing samples collected by China's Chang'e 6 mission, scientists discovered that the far side's regolith formed from lava at temperatures approximately 100 degrees Celsius lower than those from the near side. This study provides insight into the Moon's geological history and the uneven distribution of heat-producing elements, which may have resulted from ancient impacts or tidal forces from Earth.Jupiter's Slimmer ProfileNew measurements from NASA's Juno mission reveal that Jupiter is actually slimmer than previously thought, being about 8 kilometers narrower at the equator and 24 kilometers flatter at the poles. These findings refine our understanding of the gas giant's shape and have implications for models of planetary formation and evolution. The data also sheds light on Jupiter's atmospheric dynamics, including its powerful winds and cyclones, enhancing our knowledge of gas giants both within our solar system and beyond.www.spacetimewithstuartgary.com✍️ Episode ReferencesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, Nature Geoscience, Nature AstronomyBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/spacetime-with-stuart-gary--2458531/support.(00:00:00) New study claims that mysterious substance called dark matter could be powering our Milky Way(00:08:01) New study suggests lunar far side may be a little bit colder than near side(00:12:52) Space Time is brought to you by Squarespace. com spacetime(00:14:23) New measurements based on NASA's Juno mission reveal Jupiter is much smaller than previously thought(00:18:16) People with depressive personalities far more likely to have sexual fantasies, study finds(00:20:34) New test shows artificial intelligence chatbot admitting it would kill to save itself(00:27:09) Already we have security companies treating AI chatbots like humans

Finally, an episode about Tucker Carlson—and at an auspicious time, as his influence on the right seems only to have grown in the first year of Trump's second term. To help us understand him, we turned to journalist Jason Zengerle, who first crossed paths with Tucker in the last, halcyon days of magazine journalism before cable news and the internet, and now has written Hated By All the Right People, a book that tells two intertwined stories: the life of Tucker Carlson, and the changes in the media that he's navigated so deftly (despite some low points along the way). This conversation takes you from his adolescence to his early fame writing for The Weekly Standard and Talk to his recent interview with Nick Fuentes, and all the phases and stages of Tucker's sad trajectory toward anti-semitism and conspiracy-mongering.Sources:Jason Zengerle, Hated By All the Right People: Tucker Carlson and the Unraveling of the Conservative Mind (2026)Andrew Marantz, "The Tucker Carlson Roadshow," New Yorker, Nov 1, 2024...and don't forget to subscribe to Know Your Enemy on Patreon for access to all of our bonus episodes!
If you haven't been following conservative media for a long time, you might not know that there have actually been many eras of Tucker Carlson. He launched his career in print journalism before landing under the bright lights of Fox News in 2009. That's where he developed his super power – giving his audience exactly what they want, and feeding some of their worst impulses again and again under the glossy veneer of respectability. New Yorker staff writer Jason Zengerle first met Carlson back in the 1990s and has been following his career ever since. His new book, "Hated by All the Right People: Tucker Carlson and the Unraveling of the Conservative Mind," examines Carlson's evolution and the media's. We spoke with Zengerle about Carlson's past and what his shifting priorities reveal about American politics.And in headlines, the House narrowly passes a spending bill to end the partial government shutdown, Renee Good's brothers testify before Congressional Democrats, and a U.S. fighter jet shoots down an Iranian drone.Show Notes: Check out Hated by All the Right People: Tucker Carlson and the Unraveling of the Conservative Mind Call Congress – 202-224-3121 Subscribe to the What A Day Newsletter – https://tinyurl.com/3kk4nyz8 What A Day – YouTube – https://www.youtube.com/@whatadaypodcast Follow us on Instagram – https://www.instagram.com/crookedmedia/ For a transcript of this episode, please visit crooked.com/whataday
Oral arguments on Alex Murdaugh's appeal are set for February 11, 2026. = In the latest podcast episode, we dive deep into the complexities surrounding the Alex Murdaugh appeal, featuring insights from author Blanca Simpson and legal expert Joe McCulloch. Their perspectives shed light on the emotional toll of the trial and the intricacies of the appeals process. In the podcast, Blanca Simpson reflects on the emotional burden she carries as she contemplates the possibility of a retrial for Alex Murdaugh. Attorney, Joe McCulloch breaks down what might happen in front of the SC Supreme Court., stating, "The 11th is not a retrial. It is an appeals process in front of the South Carolina Supreme Court." This distinction is crucial as it highlights the technical nature of the proceedings, focusing on legal arguments rather than rehashing the trial itself. We discuss with Joe what the possible outcomes might be. This episode highlights the emotional and legal intricacies of the Alex Murdaugh case, offering listeners a deeper understanding of the stakes involved. Blanca's heartfelt reflections remind us of the human impact behind legal proceedings, while Joe's legal expertise clarifies the nuances of the appeals process. As the case progresses, staying informed and understanding the legal landscape will be crucial for all those following this high-profile story.

Jason Zengerle, staff writer at The New Yorker and the author of Hated by All the Right People: Tucker Carlson and the Unraveling of the Conservative Mind (Crooked Media Reads, 2027), talks about the development of right-wing media through the story of Tucker Carlson.
This week, Emily Bazelon, John Dickerson, and David Plotz discuss how the shocking killing of Alex Pretti by federal agents could represent a real turning point for Trump's immigration enforcement policies, the cognitive dissonance about constitutional rights and conservative principles displayed by political leaders in the wake of Pretti's killing, and a new book by guest Jason Zengerle: Hated by All the Right People: Tucker Carlson and the Unraveling of the Conservative Mind.For this week's Slate Plus bonus episode, Emily, John, and David discuss a landmark trial starting in California that aims to adjudicate between children and families who say that social media caused them immense harm because companies intentionally engineered addicting platforms, and social media giants like Meta who argue they're not responsible for content protected by the First Amendment. In the latest Gabfest Reads, Emily Bazelon talks with author Curtis Sittenfeld about her short story collection, “Show Don't Tell.” They discuss the recurring themes of the book from troubled marriages and middle age to the passage of time, and characters who are navigating moments of racial privilege and prejudice.

‘New Yorker' staff writer Jason Zengerle says after Tucker Carlson was let go from CNN and MSNBC, and joined Fox News, Trump's 2016 presidential candidacy revived his career. “Those more prestigious Fox shows… they could not find camera-ready, intelligent human beings to go on their programs and make a sensible case for Donald Trump -- and Tucker was someone who could,” he tells Terry Gross. After Fox fired Carlson in 2023, he started his own streaming show and moved further to the right. Zengerle writes that Carlson's story shows how conservative media has changed.
