Send us Fan MailJune 2, 2026. I was planning on doing the next podcast on developing an assortment of chocolates. Instead, I ran into a conversation on YouTube between Carl Sagan, a liberal and famous astrophysicist, and Dennis Prager, a conservative talk show host with a beguiling sense of humorThis podcast treats six questions that Dennis Prager asks of Carl Sagan, who instead of being forgotten, is more timely and more important than ever.In the podcast, I mention what progress we are making. This includes developing a new and very exciting web site for Chocolat des Villages, France. My next podcast will include a link to it.As always, please join PH&F in its efforts to empower the Ivorian cocoa farmer!

In this episode, we sit down with Stephanie Hurley Collier, Executive Director of Big Brothers Big Sisters of the Tri-State, to discuss why trauma-responsive services matter across every sector — including mentoring programs serving vulnerable youth.Stephanie shares how meaningful, professionally supported mentoring relationships can help children build confidence, resilience, and connection, especially when organizations intentionally create environments that recognize and respond to trauma. Together, we explore what it means to move beyond simply serving youth and toward truly understanding the experiences many children carry with them every day.In this conversation, we discuss: What trauma-responsive care means in practice Why mentoring relationships can be life-changing for children facing adversity The importance of safe, supportive adult connections How organizations can integrate trauma-responsive principles into their services The role community members play in helping youth reach their full potential Big Brothers Big Sisters of the Tri-State is part of the nationwide Big Brothers Big Sisters network, creating and supporting one-to-one mentoring relationships that ignite the power and promise of youth. Research and best practices in mentoring continue to show that trauma-responsive approaches help organizations better recognize the impact of trauma, respond appropriately, and reduce the risk of re-traumatization for children and families.

Episode Description This week on the Bit Improv Comedy Network, Billy and Gail head south — spiritually, geographically, and possibly medically — with Mike Roth of The Villages, Florida, who gives them a guided tour of America's most aggressively recreational retirement wonderland. Mike walks us through The Villages' astonishing scale, its golf cart culture, its town squares, nightly dancing, festivals, clubs, rumors, loofah lore, pickleball intensity, and the particular magic of a community where everyone has a hobby, a schedule, and apparently a transportation-based signaling system. From there, the BIT Crew takes one polite civic interview and lovingly drives it straight into a flaming roundabout of podcast-town chaos: The Villages Podcast Network, loofah codes, armed festival discourse, senior self-discovery, competitive pickleball escalation, and a Shooters vs. Pickleball championship that probably violates at least three HOA guidelines. Charming at first. Then sun-drenched. Then deeply unsupervised. Apologies The BIT Comedy Network apologizes to Mike Roth, the residents of The Villages, Florida, golf cart commuters, golf cart passengers, golf cart mechanics, anyone with a loofah attached to anything, people who know what the loofahs mean, people who insist the loofahs mean nothing, pickleball players, pickleball referees, the Shooters Club, Strawberry Festival attendees, town square dancers, low-priced alcoholic beverage vendors, coming-of-age seniors, alternative sexuality educators, upside-down pineapple enthusiasts, Central Park, trailer parks, retirement communities, HOA boards, Florida tourism officials, anyone named Lucky Luke, anyone who brought a gun to a fruit-based festival, and all listeners who thought "retirement" meant things would calm down.

© Clay Jones – https://claytoonz.substack.com On our political radar this week… The $200-million, privately funded Trump desecration of the White House has morphed into a $1-billion project … with taxpayers picking up the tab. While the White House focused on the ballroom, taking over DC Golf Courses, repainting the reflecting pool, details of the White House UFC fight on July 4, and signage at the newly renamed Donald J. Trump International Airport in West Palm Beach, Michigan Democrats maintained their slim majority in the state Senate with a landslide special election victory in the Saginaw Valley. Chedrick Greene did what Democrats have been doing for a year: outperformed 2024's numbers by a stunning 20-point margin. In Indiana, Trump's vengeance … amplified by around $14-million … has purged 5 Republicans from that state's Senate as penance for daring to defy Trump's imperial decree: a reminder that Trump's Republican Party is a cult of servility – or else. The Trump bank account continues to grow, with nepo-grifters Don Jr. and Eric landing a multi-million-dollar contract from Daddy's Department of Defense. They've very quickly become successful entrepreneurs in the military drone business as a supplement to their hawking of worthless meme coins and cashing in on Daddy’s power/name/greed. The Michigan Supreme Court heard oral arguments in the battle over Michigan MAGA House Speaker Matt Hall's refusal to follow the state constitution when it comes to sending bills passed by the Legislature to the Governor to enact into law has a Supreme Court hearing. The state Senate is the plaintiff and their lead attorney: the honorable Mr. Mark Brewer Esquire. In the race for the Democrats' U.S. Senate nomination, Haley Stevens picked up two significant endorsements: retired 4-term U.S. Senator Debbie Stabenow, and the wife of the man she wants to succeed, Senator Gary Peters (who has said he will not endorse in the primary). All three Democratic Senate candidates are set to participate in a forum on the Pod Save America podcast, scheduled to air May 24. The podcast reaches around 1.5 million listeners … slightly more than this podcast! Republicans are claiming that Jocelyn Benson can't be trusted to run the November election because her name is on the ballot. One problem with their rhetoric: the elections are run by local clerks and the Board of State Canvassers, not the Secretary of State. Benson doesn't participate in validating signatures on nominating petitions or certifying the results and has taken the additional step of formally establishing a firewall between her and administration of the election. Not to be outdone in the “ignorance on display sweepstakes”, Trump has called for the impeachment and/or indictment of House Democratic Leader Hakeem Jeffries. Impeaching House members isn't a thing. It's one more word salad from the mouth of someone a majority of Americans think is lacking the mental sharpness to do the job. Trump held his first post-Correspondants' Dinner campaign-style rally … at the friendly turf of The Villages retirement community in central Florida. Speaking to a crowd of supportive retirees, he and his fellow TV celebrity Dr. Phil repeated one of his many lies regarding the horrendous Big Ugly Budget Bill, claiming he had ended taxes on Social Security while standing in front of a backdrop making the same bogus claim. Spoiler alert: it's not true. What passed was a three-year, $ 6,000 tax deduction for seniors. It expires at the end of Trump's term!

“Every single person that we meet was both the endpoint of thousands of years that brought them there, and the midpoint of some other process, and was the beginning of something else entirely. Think of yourselves as the middle and the beginning, not just the end.” — Patrick Wyman History, we are often told, is a simple story of progress — from caves and villages to cities; from forests and farms to factories; from chieftains and kings to democracies. But, for Patrick Wyman, host of the enormously popular Tides of History and Fall of Rome podcasts, that's far too linear a narrative. In his new book, Lost Worlds: How Humans Tried, Failed, Succeeded, and Built Our World, Wyman argues that rather than a teleological inevitability, civilization is a chaotic ten thousand year story of improvisation, experiment, failure, and unintended consequence. It is never ending. We are always in the middle of it. Dramatic advances in archaeological technology triggered Wyman's argument in Lost Worlds. Ancient DNA, isotope analysis, LiDAR, cutting-edge excavation are all opening up what Wyman calls “a golden age for popular historians.” We can now trace the lives of individuals in ways that were inconceivable just a generation ago. Wyman's star is Ötzi the Iceman — a man murdered 5,300 years ago in the Alps, whose gut contents, DNA, last meal, and likely killers we now know. Rather than a symbol of prehistoric life, Ötzi the Iceman reveals why history keeps happening. Five Takeaways • The Prelapsarian Fallacy: Hunter-Gatherers Weren't Paradise: The romantic idea — popular in the last decade as people read Graeber and Wengrow or Yuval Noah Harari — is that hunter-gatherers had it better. Farming made us smaller, sicker, more crowded, more unequal. Wyman's counter: yes, on some metrics early farmers were less healthy than foragers. But farming also supported enormously larger populations. It expanded the possibilities of human life in ways that foraging never could. Looking back at the past and calling it paradise says more about the critique of the present than about the actual realities of past lives. • Civilization Was Not Inevitable: We have a story about how we got from foragers to cities: people settled, started farming, produced surplus, developed specialisation, built states. But Wyman's new archaeology shows that this story is wrong at every step. Farming didn't always replace foraging. Villages didn't automatically spark agriculture. Cities didn't necessitate rigid hierarchies. For every society that moved from one stage to the next, there are others that moved in different directions, collapsed, hybridised, or simply chose something else. The line of progress is a retrospective fiction. • Ötzi the Iceman: A Man With a Story: Wyman's most vivid example of what the new archaeology makes possible: Ötzi, a man murdered 5,300 years ago in the Alps, whose mummified body was found in 1991. From isotope analysis of his teeth, we know where he grew up. From his gut contents, we know what he ate in his last meal — venison and ibex. From his DNA, we know his ancestry. From the arrow in his back, we know how he died. We don't know his name, but we know enough to recognise him as fully human. That is what the new tools give us: not symbols of a lost world, but individual people with individual stories. • The Fall of Rome Was Not a Tragedy: Wyman spent fifteen years of his life thinking about the fall of the Roman Empire and hosting a podcast about it. Writing this book changed how he sees it. He used to view it as a tragedy — something lost. Now he views it as a natural part of the rhythms that pulse through human societies over long periods of time. The remarkable thing about Rome is not that it fell. All empires fall. All societies eventually reach the limits of their technologies, their environments, their ways of organising life. The remarkable thing is that it lasted as long as it did. Six hundred years. That's the story. • Think of Yourself as the Middle, Not the End: Wyman's message for the AI apocalypticists — and for everyone else who believes they're living at the final chapter of human history. Every person at every point in the past believed the same thing. The Neolithic farmers Wyman studies. The Bronze Age city-dwellers. The Romans. Every one of them was both an endpoint and a beginning. The AI revolution may transform the world. But it will not end it. Stop thinking in terms of next quarter. Start thinking of yourself as part of something much, much bigger — that will extend long after your name has been forgotten.

President Donald Trump spoke to retirees on Friday in The Villages, Florida, after taking steps aimed at providing millions of Americans better access to retirement accounts—a move that was met with bipartisan praise. It's the president's first large public event since his third assassination attempt Saturday night.Breaking tonight, the Pentagon says the United States is withdrawing 5,000 troops from NATO ally Germany. This comes after President Trump said earlier that the U.S. was reviewing a possible reduction. And with Operation Epic Fury paused amid a ceasefire, the United States is continuing Economic Fury on Iran—this time targeting a Chinese firm accused of helping Iran sell billions in sanctioned oil.Trump on Friday said he's still weighing a taxpayer-funded takeover of Spirit Airlines. The president did not offer details about the proposal but told reporters he would have an announcement on the matter by Saturday.

La Corée du Sud est le pays qui connaît le plus faible taux de natalité au monde : 0,7 enfant par femme. Une dénatalité qui se constate d'ailleurs au quotidien. Un déclin de population entamé en 2020, première année où le nombre de décès a surpassé le nombre de naissances. Conséquence : des entreprises, des écoles qui ferment, des villages abandonnés, vidés de leurs habitants. Avec une vie précaire pour ceux qui s'y accrochent encore. (Rediffusion) « Corée du Sud : ces villages en voie de disparition », un grand reportage de Célio Fioretti.
Thirty-two years after the genocide in Rwanda, the country is undetaking its most sensitive task yet: reintegrating the last remaining perpetrators into the very heart of the lands where they once committed murder. Those walking out of prison today are often those who have served their full 30-year sentences. The challenge is daunting: how can these men and women be transformed into productive citizens within a society that has changed so radically? Our correspondent Aurore Bayoud reports, with Tom Canetti.
Circulating around the internet right now, is the bold claim that Israel is bombing Christian villages in Lebanon. The insinuation is that Israel is purposely targeting Christians, because Israel has a particular hatred for anything Christian in the Middle East. And as odd as it might sound, it's actually true. At least the bombing part is. The reason though? Very different from what people are claiming. Also it looks like Israel has eliminated 1,800 Hezbollah terrorists in Lebanon, which is incredible.

This episode shifts from investing to the growing threat of scams—especially targeting older adults—breaking down how common fraud tactics work, from fake virus alerts and spoofed calls to AI-driven voice cloning and recovery scams. Don and Tom emphasize a simple but powerful rule: if you didn't initiate the contact, assume it's a scam, and never act under pressure. The conversation then pivots to listener questions, covering how to construct a globally diversified portfolio with proper U.S./international balance, how to structure fixed income for retirement income needs, and why investors should resist the urge to “take winnings” after gains—focusing instead on long-term discipline and occasional rebalancing.0:05 Scams targeting older adults and why susceptibility increases1:21 AARP article and life in The Villages as a scam hotspot backdrop3:05 Fake virus alerts and tech support scams (iPad example, $25K loss)6:10 Scale of scam losses (older Americans, underreporting, $5B+ impact)6:48 Common scam types: fake purchases, investment fraud, and urgency tactics7:23 Caller ID spoofing and law enforcement impersonation scams8:25 AI voice cloning and evolving scam sophistication8:39 Call screening tools and reducing scam exposure9:53 Bank impersonation scams using stolen personal data11:14 IRS scams—what the IRS actually does (mail only)11:57 Key defense rule: urgency = scam12:47 “Recovery scams” targeting prior victims13:27 Core principle: assume unsolicited contact is fraudulent14:44 Transition to listener Q&A intro and contact methods16:07 Portfolio construction: balancing U.S. vs international exposure using ETFs18:00 Fixed income strategy: BND vs CDs, money markets, income buckets19:26 Listener question: should you “take profits” after gains?20:03 Why long-term investing ≠ gambling (stay invested vs timing)21:39 Exception: rebalancing vs profit-taking22:38 Historical perspective on long-term economic growthQuestions?
