Untangling the Political Roots of Immigration and Inequality in the United States (Routledge, 2026) examines the causes, consequences, and politics of mass migration and growing inequality by investigating the case of the United States – the quintessential immigrant nation. While scholars, policy makers, and advocates have put forth a variety of explanations, many misdiagnose the causes and put forward remedies that treat symptoms. This book looks to the root causes of mass migration and intensifying inequality, arguing that they are two sides of the same coin resulting from rapacious forms of capitalist accumulation and imperialist interventionism. Developing a broadly left analytic framework grounded in elements of Marxist theory and political science, two periods are examined – 1870–1925 and 1970–2025 – when the proportion of immigrants in the US peaked at 15% of the total population, the US experienced steep inequality and political polarization, immigration and inequality became contentious political issues that generated sharp conflict, and immigrants and workers organized mass movements that advanced radical politics and transformative change. This book contains a wealth of information and elevates valuable lessons for scholars, policy makers, and organizers interested in understanding these trends and forging equitable and just solutions today.

One of the most closely watched political contests in this midterm election year is happening in Texas, and a new poll offers some surprises.The race for the U.S. Senate seat currently held by John Cornyn has recently been characterized as tightening up, but a new poll suggests Republican Ken Paxton and Democrat Jasmine Crockett are […] The post Untangling legal questions in the age of AI photo manipulation appeared first on KUT & KUTX Studios -- Podcasts.

I talk with Alexandra Wyman, a mom, author, podcast host, and pediatric occupational therapist who became a single mom after losing her husband to suicide just four days before their second wedding anniversary. Alexandra shares how she spent years following the “checklist” for a perfect life—college, career, marriage, house, kids—and how it finally felt like everything had clicked when she met her husband and started a family. When he died by suicide, that entire vision disappeared overnight, and she was left grieving not only her husband, but the life, identity, and future she thought she was supposed to have. We dig into what grief really looks like behind the scenes: Feeling like a shell of a person and having almost no capacity.Letting the smallest things be enough—sometimes just getting out of bed or giving her one-year-old a bath. Finding an anchor (for her, it was her son) as a reason to keep going, even when nothing made sense. Alexandra talks honestly about the social side of grief—how some people you expect to show up don't, how others quietly check in with simple “thinking of you” messages that mean everything, and how little we're taught about death, estates, and supporting someone through profound loss. We also explore the inner work she's done: Untangling people-pleasing, outcome-controlling, and long-held feelings of abandonment and low self-worth.Learning she didn't need a partner to “complete” her; her wholeness was already within her. Blending neuroscience (understanding what grief does to the brain) with spirituality (leaning on her “spirit team” and a bigger sense of purpose). As a mom, Alexandra is now focused on raising her son to be grounded in who he is, instead of seeking validation from others. She's shifted away from the idea that kids' behavior defines a parent's worth, and instead sees parenting as a mutual learning process where both parent and child are growing, regulating, and healing together. Out of her experience, Alexandra created: Her book, ⁠The Suicide Club: What to Do When Someone You Love Chooses Death, ⁠written as the handbook she wishes she'd had.Her podcast, ⁠Forward to Joy, where she shares tools and stories ⁠about grief, healing, and finding meaning after loss. This conversation is for any mom whose life doesn't look the way she thought it would, who feels like she's rebuilding from the ground up. Alexandra reminds us that grief isn't linear, joy isn't off-limits, and it's okay to move forward in baby steps—one small act of living and loving at a time. Connect with Alexadra's podcast here.

If your AR feels like a maze of phone calls, spreadsheets, and “we'll match it later,” this conversation shows a cleaner path. We sit down with Fauwaz Hussain, Senior Director of B2B Partnerships and Strategy at Global Payments, to break down what actually speeds cash and what quietly stalls it. From card-not-present realities to complex terms and partial shipments, we map the B2B differences that make order-to-cash harder and the practical changes that remove friction fast.We get specific about embedding payments inside your ERP so invoices, settlements, and the general ledger line up automatically. That shift kills rekeying errors, collapses department silos, and gives support, sales, and finance the same live truth. Security gets stronger when card data never touches email or recorded calls, and PCI compliance becomes manageable when you use certified, cloud-based vaults and enforce simple rules like “no cards by phone.” Fauwaz explains why publishers like Microsoft, SAP, and Sage now run tighter marketplaces, how VARs and ISVs evaluate payment apps, and why a one-stop provider reduces risk across gateways, vaults, and processing.We also cover the cash-flow moves that work right away: self-serve portals with open invoices, one-click payment links by email or text, stored credentials for auto-pay, and accepting multiple methods from ACH to single-use virtual cards. Then we look forward - AI-driven cash application, predictive delinquencies, Level 2/3 data validation, and API-first architectures that connect e-commerce, field service, and ERP into a single payment fabric. If you're leading AR, finance, or operations, you'll leave with a clear playbook to modernize without compromising compliance.

Episode #482: “My main mission, so to speak, is to clarify the differences between the many rumors about Myanmar... the myths going on both inside and outside the country, which are all very much related.” Hans-Bernd Zöllner, a Protestant minister turned scholar, has spent decades exploring how Buddhism, politics, and myth intertwine in Myanmar's history. From his first trip in the 1980s, he resisted Western portrayals that reduced Burma to a struggle between good and evil. “The media have their own image of Myanmar, which is still… like a confrontational view between good and evil.” He insists that such binaries ignore the cultural and religious frameworks that shape Burmese politics. At the heart of his analysis lies democracy. “The Burmese concept of democracy is a concept of qualitative democracy, the quality of the rulers comes first. And the Western concept is a concept of quantitative democracy, the number of votes comes first.” For a brief period, he notes, Suu Kyi's vision of righteous, elected rule coexisted with the military's karmic claim to legitimacy. That uneasy balance collapsed, culminating in the 2021 coup— another turn in Burma's recurring cycle of unity and rupture. Buddhism, Zöllner argues, is central to understanding this cycle. Where kings once ruled with monastic support, the generals after 1988 claimed legitimacy through karma and ritual. Monks like Sitagu Sayadaw reinforced this by endorsing military campaigns as protection of the faith. Suu Kyi, by contrast, drew from another Buddhist tradition— the ruler chosen for justice and order. These clashing concepts explain why she was venerated at home but misunderstood abroad, and in his mind, also explain why the 2021 coup was inevitable. Zöllner closes on a personal note: “Institutionalized religion is always a problem, and we have to try to find our own way to live by a personal religion that can guide daily life and encourage good deeds.”

As we celebrate the release of season three of Futuro Studios’ hit-show La Brega, we take you back to where it all first started: Season 1, Episode 1. Host Alana Casanova-Burgess sets out to define the many meanings of “la brega”—one of them being the struggle—and its ubiquity among Boricuas. Alana takes us from potholes, to protests and metaphors, to compile all of the possible meanings that lie within “la brega”, she looks at how it sometimes asks too much of Puerto Ricans and how, at the same time, the word itself has an innate sense of hope.

Maintaining software over time rarely fails because of one bad decision. It fails because teams stop getting clear signals… and start guessing.In this episode, Robby talks with Lucas Roesler, Managing Partner and CTO at Contiamo. Lucas joins from Berlin to unpack what maintainability looks like in practice when you are dealing with real constraints… limited context, missing documentation, and systems that resist understanding.A big through-line is feedback. Lucas argues that long-lived systems become easier to change when they provide fast, trustworthy signals about what they are doing. That can look like tests that validate assumptions, tooling that makes runtime behavior visible, and a habit of designing for observability instead of treating it as a bolt-on.The conversation also gets concrete. Lucas shares a modernization effort built on a decade-old tangle of database logic… views, triggers, stored procedures, and materializations… created by a single engineer who was no longer around. With little documentation to lean on, the team had to build their own approach to “reading” the system and mapping dependencies before they could safely change anything.If you maintain software that has outlived its original authors, this is a grounded look at what helps teams move from uncertainty to confidence… without heroics, and without rewriting for sport.Episode Highlights[00:00:46] What well-maintained software has in common: Robby asks Lucas what traits show up in systems that hold together over time.[00:03:25] Readability at runtime: Lucas connects maintainability to observability and understanding what a system actually did.[00:16:08] Writing the system down as code: Infrastructure, CI/CD, and processes as code to reduce guesswork and improve reproducibility.[00:17:42] How client engagements work in practice: How Lucas' team collaborates with internal engineering teams and hands work off.[00:25:21] The “rat's nest” modernization story: Untangling a legacy data system with years of database logic and missing context.[00:29:40] Making data work testable: Why testability matters even when the “code” is SQL and pipelines.[00:34:59] Pivot back to feedback loops: Robby steers into why logs, metrics, and tracing shape better decision-making.[00:35:20] Why teams avoid metrics and tracing: The organizational friction of adding “one more component.”[00:42:59] Local observability with Grafana: Using visual feedback to spot waterfalls, sequential work, and hidden coupling.[00:50:00] Non-technical book recommendations: What Lucas reads and recommends outside of software.Links & ReferencesGuest and CompanyLucas Roesler: https://lucasroesler.com/Contiamo: https://contiamo.com/SocialMastodon: https://floss.social/@theaxerBluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/theaxer.bsky.socialBooks MentionedThe Wheel of Time (Robert Jordan): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Wheel_of_TimeAccelerando (Charles Stross): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AccelerandoCharles Stross: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charles_StrossThanks to Our Sponsor!Turn hours of debugging into just minutes!

THE MOST MISUSED VERSE ON WOMEN IN MINISTRY is 1 Timothy 2:12. We untagle the meaning in this episode of The Eden Podcast! We ask and answer just WHO were the men and women of 1 Timothy 2:8 and 9-15?? 1 Timothy 3:1 gives the clue! These were the wayward men and women overseers Timothy was left in Ephesus to correct.There is so much error-filled teaching on these verses to be set aside. Here we use the patterns of the passage to unlock the positive meaning of these verses for men and women who aspire to oversight in the church. From Book 3 in The Eden Book Series by Bruce C. E. Fleming. The Tru316 Foundation (www.Tru316.com) is the home of The Eden Podcast with Bruce C. E. Fleming where we “true” the verse of Genesis 3:16. The Tru316 Message is that “God didn't curse Eve (or Adam) or limit woman in any way.” Once Genesis 3:16 is made clear the other passages on women and men become clear too. You are encouraged to access the episodes of Seasons 1-11 of The Eden Podcast for teaching on the seven key passages on women and men. Are you a reader? We invite you to get from Amazon the four books by Bruce C. E. Fleming in The Eden Book Series (Tru316.com/trubooks). Would you like to support the work of the Tru316 Foundation?

All the pups we love—from chihuahuas to great danes—are descendants of the mighty gray wolf. But how did we end up with so many breeds? The story that's often told is that dog diversity really took off with the Victorians in the 1800s, but new research is unleashing a different tale. Host Flora Lichtman talks with bioarchaeologist Carly Ameen about the diversification of dogs. Plus, a long-running experiment to tame silver foxes is cluing us into how domestication happens. Canine researcher Erin Hecht gives us a glimpse into the experiment and what it tells us about domesticated brains.Guests:Dr. Carly Ameen is a bioarcheologist and lecturer at the University of Exeter in England.Dr. Erin Hecht is an evolutionary biologist at Harvard in Cambridge, Massachusetts. Transcripts for each episode are available within 1-3 days at sciencefriday.com.

Send us a textAnother fiery episode today where we talk about the tell-tale signs of overexercise as well as some tips for getting back into movement, after a long period of absence.Untangling weight loss and movement is one of the hardest parts of rebuilding our relationship with our bodies.  For many of us, coming from a disordered eating background, it can be all too easy to replace restriction with overexercising.  We're still maintaining that felt sense of 'control' over our bodies.  We can cope with listening to our bodies'  hunger cues, as long as we can also do the calorie-burning classes and manipulate our bodies through movement.Our takeaways:After a long period of restriction/ disordered eating and punishing exercise, you may need to step away from organised exercise for a while.  Coming back to movement gives you the opportunity, to get curious about what you'd actually LIKE to do and what feels good in your body.You don't have to subscribe to joyful movement.  If you simply don't enjoy movement, you're not doing anything wrong and you are not alone. Start with 5 minutes and get it into your routine. Once embedded, add another short session each week until you're able to do more, without feeling triggered by old diet culture thoughts or beliefs. EVERY LITTLE TINY BIT OF MOVEMENT COUNTSFind a coach, who you relate to. A coach who listens to you and can write a program for you that will spark your interest and give your flexibility to adjust your workouts according to your energy levels and capacity.Have a listen to this episode and let us know what you think.The movement piece of rebuilding trust with our bodies is arguably the toughest, especially if you've always used it as a way to earn your food.  You are not alone in this fight and our wish for you, is that someday you will find true strength and empowerment in movement.

Faith is meant to bring life. But what happens when it become harmful? In this episode, Dr. Carol sits down with Jeff and Terra Mattson, a husband-and-wife author team whose work bridges leadership, psychology, and spiritual formation. He brings the perspective of an executive coach; she offers the clinical insight of a licensed professional counselor. Together, we explore the idea of toxic faith: how faith can be distorted through fear, control, shame, or misuse of authority, and how to discern the difference between spiritually abusive systems and the ordinary, imperfect humanness found in any community. We also examine the deep impact of spiritual abuse on the whole person and why its effects often linger long after someone leaves a harmful environment. Most importantly, this conversation offers hope. We talk about what healing can actually look like, including the slow and courageous work of re-examining one's internal view of God. For those who feel wounded, confused, or distant from God because of their faith experiences, this episode offers clarity, compassion, and a grounded path toward restoration.

If you've ever caught yourself thinking I'm running out of time or I should be further along by now—you're not alone.In this episode, Meghan and Maria talk about the quiet pressure so many women carry around time. The feeling that every decision is high-stakes. That healing, dating, or discernment has to happen now. That somehow you're late to your own life.Together, they gently unpack where time scarcity shows up, how it fuels control and comparison, and why awareness is the first place real freedom begins. This conversation isn't about fixing your timeline—it's about softening your grip, listening to your body and heart, and letting God meet you right where you are.If time has started to feel like a threat instead of a gift, this episode is a deep exhale. ✨ January is stacked ✨Doors to our 6 month Program: Thriving in the Space Between open January 20 with an Early Bird discount, and close January 31.Before doors open, you're invited to join us for two free live events:• January 13 @ 7pm CT — Program Overview + real stories from TIS members

Today we are running back the BEST episode of 2025, enjoy! As high achievers are are always booked, busy, and praised for it. But under the glow of the wins and the grind, there's a deeper question we don't ask enough: Who am I if I'm not achieving? In this episode, we're getting real about the unspoken pressure to become your job—and the emotional fallout that comes with it. If your self-worth has been riding shotgun with your success, it's time to pull over and reset. In this episode, we dive into: Why high achievers link self-worth to performance The signs your identity is tangled in your output How hustle culture is glorified burnout in disguise Practical ways to reclaim joy, rest, and your whole damn self The truth about failing — and why it doesn't mean you are a failure What it really means to succeed on your own terms Make a "No Resume Required" Joy List — a reminder that you are more than your inbox, your LinkedIn profile, or your launch metrics. Because joy is your birthright, not a productivity reward.

Today we're talking about Gerald Gardner, why he's called the father of modern Wicca, and how a prescription for nudism somehow became part of the origin story. Along the way we sort out a big misconception, why Wicca isn't the same thing as witchcraft, and how witchcraft existed long before Wicca ever had a name.We dig into the timeline, Gardner's rise in the 1950s after the repeal of Britain's Witchcraft Act, his public “yep, I'm a witch” moment, and the way figures like Doreen Valiente helped shape (and challenge) what Wicca became. Then we get into the messy bits, such as questionable credentials, borrowed material, rigid hierarchy, secrecy, gender roles, and why some of this still echoes in modern “love and light” spirituality.Finally, we unpack the Wiccan ethics everyone argues about online, from the Wiccan Rede (“harm none”) to the Threefold Law, including why it's often treated like karma… and why that comparison falls apart when you look at karma's actual roots.Join our Patreon for bonus episodes, magical downloads, and unhinged side quests: https://www.patreon.com/demystifymagicPre-order Molly's book Mundane Magic A Lazy Witch's Guide to Hacking Your Brain, Building a Daily Practice, and Getting Stuff DonePreorder Mundane Magic & Join the Virtual Book Tour⁠: Celebrate the release of Molly's new book with an exclusive online event on Feb 21, 12 PM EST.

1 Corinthians 16: Anything But Junk Mail (1Corinthians - Untangling Church) taught by Associate Pastor Justin Butorac on 12-07-25.

Sarah Derbew's new book Untangling Blackness in Greek Antiquity (Cambridge UP, 2022) asks how should articulations of blackness from the fifth century BCE to the twenty-first century be properly read and interpreted? This important and timely book is the first concerted treatment of black skin color in the Greek literature and visual culture of antiquity. In charting representations in the Hellenic world of black Egyptians, Aithiopians, Indians, and Greeks, Derbew dexterously disentangles the complex and varied ways in which blackness has been co-produced by ancient authors and artists; their readers, audiences, and viewers; and contemporary scholars. Exploring the precarious hold that race has on skin coloration, the author uncovers the many silences, suppressions, and misappropriations of blackness within modern studies of Greek antiquity. Shaped by performance studies and critical race theory alike, her book maps out an authoritative archaeology of blackness that reappraises its significance. It offers a committedly anti-racist approach to depictions of black people while rejecting simplistic conflations or explanations.

In this episode, Rob shares how childhood sexual abuse shaped his identity through shame, silence, and confusion — and how God has been restoring what was stolen.

1 Corinthians 15: Death Defeated (1 Corinthians - Untangling Church) taught by Associate Pastor Justin Butorac on 11-30-25.

When 18-year-old Anna Kepner was found hidden under a bed inside a cruise ship cabin, the story immediately drew national attention — not because of what investigators discovered, but because of all the things they didn't. No intruder. No external threat. No clear cause of death. Just a 16-year-old stepsibling who now sits at the center of a legal and emotional storm. Tonight on Hidden Killers, we dig into the legal tensions surrounding this case — the gaps, the unknowns, the strict limitations of the juvenile system, and the uncomfortable reality that many of these answers may never become public. With attorney and former prosecutor Bob Motta, we explore every realistic scenario investigators must consider: accident, panic, trauma, a moment of fear that spiraled, an altercation without intent, a medical event mishandled, or an intentional act. The law doesn't get to pick the neat version — it has to test all of them. We also break down the implications of the stepson's claim that he “doesn't remember what happened.” Legally, that can indicate trauma, shock, dissociation, or a panic-response blackout — all of which dramatically complicate the question of charges. Because intent matters. Mechanism matters. And mental state matters. We look at why certain charges are possible, why some are unlikely, and why others — like premeditated murder — simply don't fit the known facts. And we explain the Fifth Amendment move by the stepmother: a headline-grabbing moment that creates more confusion than clarity. Most importantly, we dive into the biggest question: how does a case like this realistically end? A juvenile plea? Treatment? No charges? Or a sealed resolution the public will never see? This case is heartbreaking, confusing, and bound by legal blinders that make it even harder to understand. But tonight, we break down what the law actually says — not what the internet assumes. #AnnaKepner #CruiseCase #HiddenKillers #TrueCrimeToday #LegalBreakdown #JuvenileCase #BobMotta #CrimeAnalysis #JusticeSystem #InvestigationUpdate Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?
