The new "Pete and Bobby Challenge" is completely out of line with what American youth can and should be doing in physical fitness. 50 Pull-Ups and 100 Push-Ups in less than ten minutes?!!! What are you thinking?!!! It's outright child abuse, and yes, I back this up in the show. Please listen and start rationally thinking about what needs to be done instead of listening to irrational propaganda like 150 reps of child abuse.Reference Links:"The Motivation Factor" Documentary FilmFM 21-20 Physical Training Manual, US Dept. of War (1946)*Music courtesy of Matt Bradford

Trump promised to end the wars in Ukraine and Gaza, yet here we are – months later – and seemingly no real progress has been made towards peace in either regions. In the meantime, Trump and co were also seeking deals across the Middle East, including a new nuclear deal with Iran. How did that go? It ended in full scale War! Is the Art of the Deal dead? Is Trump a fool? Or is he more of a master negotiator than is immediately apparent? Did he actually manipulate the Iranians in a way that Biden never could have? To discuss this – and the intricate relationship between human psychology and the politics of negotiations – Jason was joined on June 10 by Ken Dekleva. A former senior US Dept of State physician-diplomat, CEO of Blackwood Advisory Solutions LLC, and Author of The Russian Diplomat's Wife. Ken and Jason discuss the role of human psychology in Trump's negotiations involving Ukraine, Russia, and Iran. Plus: they unpack the influence of Steve Witkoff within Trump's inner circle, the complexities of negotiations in the Middle East – and whether Team Trump is likely to get any sort of deal with powers like Iran who wish to appear uncompromising. Listening to this discussion post Israeli Attack on Iran is actually super interesting as it shows the interplay btw negotiations and war in that region. And as they Order the Disorder, they touch on the future of U.S.-China relations in the context of AI and global power dynamics, and the need for a strategic approach to negotiations.

Award-winning filmmaker Marty Stalker shares his deeply personal journey of serving as a Section Commander in the British Royal Marine Commandos during operational theaters of war in Iraq and Afganistan and his struggles after returning home. When conventional treatments were insufficient to alleviate the post-traumatic stress that plagued him, Marty found relief via a variety of “plant medicines.” In this episode, Marty describes his experiences and speaks candidly about the heavy substance use, suicidality, and other mental health issues that many veterans struggle with after returning home from tours of duty.For more on Marty Stalker, visit: https://martystalker.com/On YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@MartyStalkerIf you live in the US and are a veteran or loved one struggling with mental health challenges, below are potential resources for support:Veterans Crisis Line: https://www.veteranscrisisline.net/get-help-now/chat/US Dept. of Veterans Affairs: https://mentalhealth.va.gov/NAMI (National Alliance on Mental Illness) Resources for Veterans and Active Duty Service Members and the Families: https://www.nami.org/your-journey/veterans-active-duty/

This Week: In the latest chapter of weaponizing the civil rights arm of the US Dept of Ed against the very marginalized groups whose rights it was created to protect, the Trump admin announced an investigation into CA's SAFETY Act, claiming that the state may be violating FERPA by preventing districts from requiring educators to out LGBTQ+ and curious students to their families. And, in a dastardly, trojan horse style move, a group of mostly democratic CA legislatures launches a disingenuous attack against ethnic studies, claiming to want to develop standards and oversight over the curriculum to address critiques of Israel as a settler colonial state, which is now also engaged in genocide. It's bad enough we have to worry about attacks on humanizing education from the right. Now these folks are putting a polite, liberal face on that work as well.

It's been exactly two years since an EF-4 tornado hit rolling fork. And last night, another tornado was spotted in the area.Then, lawmakers have passed a major tax cut bill that will eliminate the state income tax. But critics say it's not going to benefit the average Mississippian.Plus, we speak with a researcher about how a shutdown of the US Department of Education could affect Mississippi schools. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

The President is in the process of closing the US Dept. of Education, but that's not who actually educates your kids. Your state does. We explain.

This Week: Well, they did it. Sort of. After telling us what the plan was like evil Bond villains, the White House released the latest in its abuses of executive power this week to, ostensibly, “Improve Educational Outcomes” by doing all it can to close the US Dept of Ed without technically closing it. It's a textbook case of policy violence, with only a thin veil covering the efforts at privatization, weakening of the institutions that educate the nation, and outright attack on what's left of our civil rights infrastructure. Oh, and in case you didn't also see, apparently your favorite vaccine denier will be in charge of school lunch and special ed now, and at least 5 states are now laying the groundwork to eliminate access to free public education for all children in America.

Karel Cast 25-40 It's Thursday and the world is alive with news. Israel, with the US's Blessing, resumes its genocide in Gaza. And at this stage, let's just call it what it is, an ethnic cleansing. Will anyone step in to help the Palestinians? Trump wants to dismantle the US Dept of Education as part of the 2025 agenda he said he had never read. He wants the states to be in charge. Here's the thing: congress created it, and only congress can dismantle it. Plus, we tried it with the states and that didn't work. Would you move to poor states if you had kids? Nope. Why? Schools. And in entertainment, from male parts causing a stir on White Lotus to a lack of shows to bond with our parents and other groups (Star Trek brought me and my dad together every week, what does that today?) entertainment is also a big ticket item this weekend. These, and so many more headlines are whizzing past us today, we'll take a moment and slow them down. The Karel Cast is heard on all streaming services from Apple Music to iHeart Media, Spotify to Spreaker. The show is Monday through Thursday at 10:30 am Live PST. It can also be seen on TikTok and Instagram. Karel is a history-making broadcaster and entertainer currently in Las Vegas with his little service girl Ember.

This Week: It's only been a week since we last spoke, and in that time the US Dept of Education is effectively ½ the size it was, and what's left is being weaponized to target colleges and universities. Plus, an Idaho teacher makes headlines for resisting her district's message to take down signs that say “everyone is welcome here.” The district says the signs “don't allow people to express differing opinions, that it is controversial in today's political environment.” The era of using school and district policy to explicitly make room for people who believe that we all are, in fact, not welcome here, has begun.

How is it fair that violent pro-abortion protesters go unpunished, while peaceful pro-life protesters are villainized and jailed? Merrick Garland & the US Dept. of Justice need a reminder that all citizens are supposed to have equal protection under the law!   Thanks for joining me for this episode! I'm a Houston- based attorney, run an HR Consulting company called Claremont Management Group, and am a tenured professor at the University of St. Thomas. I've also written several non-fiction political commentary books: Bad Deal for America (2022) explores the Vegas-style corruption running rampant in Washington DC, while The Decline of America: 100 Years of Leadership Failures (2018) analyzes – and grades – the leadership qualities of the past 100 years of U.S. presidents. You can find my books on Amazon, and me on social media (Twitter @DSchein1, LinkedIn @DavidSchein, and Facebook, Instagram, & YouTube @AuthorDavidSchein). I'd love to hear from you!   As always, the opinions expressed in this podcast are mine and my guests' and not the opinions of my university, my company, or the businesses with which I am connected.   Photo credits: - Kycheryavuy; Silverman Media Services, LLC; mandriapix; Stockbusters; MA; Evgeniy Shkolenko

This Week: It was a rough week y'all. You know it. We know it. The forces of hate and oppression are out here. Trump is going to get rid of the US Dept of Education, vouchers will be had for all, and wokeness will be outlawed forever. Not so fast.  While undoubtedly we took a hit this week, the odds of an impending end to the Dept of Education are not particularly high.  And we saw big wins on education ballot measures across the country, from school construction in CA, to voting down vouchers in many red states, to voters in Mass ending high stakes testing as a grad requirement. So, the struggle for justice remains, and there's some hope in the mix too.  Manuel and Jeff discuss! Get your All of the Above swag, including your own “Teach the Truth” shirt!
