We close out the series as we turn toward Lent with the most foundational and consequential question: “Who do you say that I am?” The answer to this question reveals more than our belief about/in Jesus, as it entails so much more than simply having or knowing the right answer. Rather, how does the answer to Jesus' question change our lives each day? Alter our prayers? Redeem our struggles? Upend our priorities? Anything less than daily transformation reduces Jesus' question to an intellectual exercise or quizlet.

The family policing system considers parents with mental health issues and other disabilities to be an inherent threat to their children. We reject that premise. Because of ableism, the legacy of eugenics, and the violence of poverty, disabled parents face a high risk of separation by the family policing system. In this episode, Dr. Robyn Powell discusses how the child welfare system weaponizes the idea of “predictive neglect” to discriminate against parents with disabilities and further enshrine stigma around mental health. How can we build a future where disabled families are supported through care, community, and trust—not surveillance and punishment? Reclaiming Safety is upEND's exploration of frequently asked questions about family policing abolition. This discussion about disability justice is an accompaniment to the essay Reclaiming Safety for Children of Parents with Disabilities by Charisa Smith. About Our Guest: Dr. Robyn Powell is an Assistant Professor of Law at Stetson University College of Law and a Senior Research Associate at the Lurie Institute for Disability Policy at Brandeis University. Her work focuses on disability law, reproductive justice, family regulation, and constitutional law, with a special emphasis on the rights of disabled parents and the abolition of the family policing system.She is the principal author of the National Council on Disability's landmark report Rocking the Cradle, Ensuring the Rights of Parents with Disabilities and Their Children, and her scholarship—featured in leading law reviews and interdisciplinary journals—examines how law and policy continue to reinforce ableism and the legacy of eugenics.Episode Notes: Support the work of upEND: upendmovement.org/donateEpisode Transcript: upendmovement.org/podcast/episode301/ Read Reclaiming Safety: upendmovement.org/safety Dr. Powell recommends people learn more about disability justice through Sins Invalid and the Disability Visibility Project.Connect with Dr. Powell at Stetson Law.Credits: Hosted by Josie Pickens and Jaison OliverProduced by Sydnie MaresMixed by Imani Crosby

Shares of Novo Nordisk were down Thursday morning after Hims & Hers introduced a compounded version of its Wegovy pill. The dip came two days after Novo predicted its sales could drop as much as 13% this year as the company factors in competition from generic drugs that could crop up as its patents expire around the world. On today’s Big Take podcast, Bloomberg reporters Naomi Kresge and Amber Tong talk to host David Gura about the year ahead for weight-loss drugs, from compounded products cutting into leading companies’ market share to generics that could upend the market globally.

Hour 1 of https://RushToReason.com opens with John and Andy taking aim at America's growing "slob culture." Has the bar really fallen so low that pajamas in airports and declining personal standards now feel normal? And is this just bad manners—or part of an ideological push toward sameness and lowered expectations? The hour then shifts into one of Colorado's most pressing political dilemmas heading into 2026: how should Republican candidates navigate the MAGA question? John and Andy break down the widening split inside the conservative movement—mainstream Republicans, hardcore MAGA loyalists, libertarian purists, and conspiracy-driven factions—and show why every group demands a different message. Reject MAGA and you lose the base. Embrace it fully and you lose the middle. So what's the winning strategy in a state where MAGA isn't popular, but MAGA voters decide primaries? Hour 1 blends humor, political reality, and blunt strategy—challenging conservatives to ask: How do you win in a state where every word can cost you a vote? HOUR 2 Hour 2 dives into one of Denver's most explosive controversies: the city's push to reclassify strip-club performers as employees. John and Andy argue this fight has almost nothing to do with morality—it's about government power, tax extraction, and a long-term plan to reshape Colorado's contractor economy. With insights from Jerzee Joe, they reveal how Denver is twisting IRS standards to set a precedent that could eventually target hair stylists, bartenders, electricians, nurses, massage therapists, Uber drivers, and even construction crews. Is the Christian right unknowingly helping advance a left-wing strategy designed to crush contractor-based businesses? The hour highlights a political trap: Denver picked a morally unpopular industry so they could secure support from both sides—then quietly use the ruling to go after hundreds of other professions. Could this be Colorado's most overlooked political story of 2025? And will business owners realize what's coming before the government decides they're no longer independent? HOUR 3 Hour 3 plays like a geopolitical thriller as John and Andy welcome Jim Paff of Conservative Caucus to unpack escalating U.S.–Venezuela tensions. Are Trump's threats a prelude to war—or a negotiation tactic to force Maduro to move without American boots on the ground? And if Venezuela's elections were rigged, what responsibility does the U.S. have to intervene? The hour intensifies when Jim details a massive fraud scandal unfolding in Minnesota—a money-laundering scheme he calls "the tip of the tip of the iceberg." Is this just the first glimpse of a nationwide network of NGOs and political actors siphoning billions in taxpayer dollars? Then, breaking news hits: Trump has nullified all Biden-era auto-pen pardons. John and Andy debate whether this is a courageous stand for constitutional integrity—or a legal gamble that could backfire if the courts reject it. Can anyone truly prove what Joe Biden did or didn't knowingly authorize? Hour 3 weaves geopolitics, corruption, legal strategy, and national urgency—ultimately asking the biggest question of all: Is America running out of time to fix what's broken?

We're thankful this week for a full Thanksgiving slate of Europa and Conference League action that delivered some of the best games and storylines of the league phase thus far. In Europa, Ludogorets shocked Celta Vigo with a 3-2 in Bulgaria. How'd they pull one of the biggest surprises of the tournament thus far? We then break down the struggle of Feyenoord, Utrecht, and Go Ahead Eagles, who all lost amidst grueling schedules. What's going wrong for the Dutch sides? Can any of them rebound and qualify for knockouts? Are Robin van Persie and his son up to the challenge? We also touch on Roma's win over Midtjylland, Bologna's impressive run of form, and naturally, the carcass of OG Nice, who now sit rock bottom of the table. There we upsets galore in Conference League, with each of the top 4 league sides falling. Strasbourg got a signature win in their triumph over the visiting Crystal Palace, and we hone in on what made the fixture such an exciting watch and why the clubs have established themselves as clear favorites. Then, we examine Rayo Vallecano's penchant for making life hard on themselves, Mainz's mediocre play catching up with them, and the dismal existence that is Fiorentina. And, naturally, we give Hamrun Spartans some love for becoming the first Maltese club to win a UEFA group-stage match. All that, some table takeaways, more VAR vitriol, and of course, David's Coefficient Corner. Cheers to our old friend Vincenzo Italiano!

Many AI experts believe that some time in the next few years, we will build something close to artificial general intelligence (AGI), a system that can do nearly all valuable cognitive work as well as or better than humans. What happens to jobs, wages, prices, and politics in that world? To explore that question, Derek is joined by Anton Korinek, an economist at the University of Virginia and one of the leading thinkers on the economics of transformative AI. Before he focused on superintelligence, Anton studied financial crises and speculative booms, so he brings a rare mix of macroeconomic skepticism and technological optimism. They talk about quiet AGI versus loud AGI, Baumol's cost disease, robots, mass unemployment, and what kinds of policies might prevent an “AGI Great Depression” and keep no American left behind.

Jeremiah Bates and Alex Lundgren team up with Steve Marsh from Medical Plans of Idaho to unpack a huge issue looming over millions of Americans — the potential expiration of enhanced premium tax credits under the American Rescue Act. With these provisions set to sunset after 2025, many could see premiums spike by 75–80% going into 2026! They explain what the "400% federal poverty level" threshold means for your wallet, who's most at risk, and what you can do now to prepare. The discussion dives into both individual health plans and Medicare, including the major changes to Advantage plans in Idaho — from disappearing zero-premium options to how retirees can use this year's guaranteed issue window to upgrade coverage. The hosts also share proactive tax and income planning strategies — from HSA contributions and 401(k) deductions to managing self-employment income — that could make or break your eligibility for crucial tax credits.   Listen, Watch, Subscribe, Ask! https://www.therealmoneypros.com Hosts: Jeremiah Bates & Alexandra Lundgren

Ricky Neaves, director of the Mississippi High School Activities Association said that the push for expanded "school choice" by Mississippi lawmakers could have a drastic impact on athletics and other programs in the state's public education system. He said improper "recruitment" of athletes already happens, even with his agency's oversight, but that universal school choice would exacerbate competition to lure athletes with ill effect on public schools, especially small, rural ones. Neaves said he hopes lawmakers leave MHSAA's eligibility authority intact if they expand school choice.

All right, college sports fans -- Despite solid stats from QB Christopher Vizzina in his first start, Clemson lost 35-24 to SMU and is in the bottom half of the ACC standings. Dabo Swinney has a lot to take stock of, and we start our analysis from afar with a look at the troubles that have plagued Tom Allen's defense all season long. We also look at longer trends of recent season to try to figure out what's going wrong, and what seems evident to us is that there's a big disconnect between the coaches and players. In this episode, we start to dive into where Clemson might try to make progress as it enters the second bye week of the 2025 season. We're glad you found us!

Later this month, the Supreme Court will hear a case that could overturn a key provision of the Voting Rights Act of 1965 that protects against racial discrimination. Without it, some legal experts say states and local jurisdictions would be permitted to effectively silence the votes of millions of people.

In 2019, Colorado Democrats had control of both the House and the Senate. That gave them the momentum they needed to push forward an issue that had repeatedly failed in the statehouse under Republicans: a ban on conversion therapy for minors.The law prohibits licensed therapists from trying to change a child's sexual orientation or gender identity or expression. Even though some conservatives strongly opposed it, the law ended up passing with bipartisan support and a few high-profile Republican backers. It wasn't seen as hugely contentious. Now a challenge on the ban has made its way to the U.S. Supreme Court. Oral arguments are Oct. 7. CPR's Bente Birkeland and CPR's Caitlyn Kim dive into the Colorado law at the center of the case and the legal arguments that will be before the nation's highest court. They also get into how this case is one in a string of challenges to Colorado's LGBTQ protections, all from the same conservative legal powerhouse. Purplish is a finalist for a Signal AwardYou rely on Purplish's reporters to break down the latest developments at the statehouse, in Congress and in local communities — and to find the big picture behind political headlines.Now Purplish is a finalist for a Signal Award, and the team needs your help.

President Trump wants a new census that excludes undocumented immigrants and reflects post-election data. But experts say such a change would require congressional approval and disrupt years of planning for the 2030 count.

Ms. Anand is Senior Director, Census and Data Equity, at The Leadership Conference on Civil and Human Rights.

Here's a thought….could tariffs, or lack thereof, send mortgage rates soaring?  That is the concern as this morning.  As you heard on this show Friday, a federal appeals court Friday afternoon, ruled that most of President Trump's global tariffs are illegal.  Today, we watched U.S. as well as global bond yields surge and mortgage rates move higher.  Why?   We'll share with you the details, today on the Jon Sanchez Show at 3pm.

The second called session of the 89th Texas Legislature is on and reproductive rights are back on the call. Once again bills have been filed to ban medications that induce abortions—but what is flying under the radar in the Senate version of the bill is a provision that would limit the Texas Religious Freedom Restoration Act or Texas RFRA. The Texas RFRA has historically been a respected, bipartisan law that protects religious institutions and, if passed, this carve out would be an unprecedented breach in the protections those institutions rely on.  Here to discuss these attacks on reproductive rights and religious freedom is Texas Impact board member Rev. Laura Walters, Coordinator of Community Engagement and Public Witness with Grace Presbytery and Rev. Kyle Riley, Public Witness mobilizer with Texas Impact.
