The songs of two common finches provide a steady soundtrack in cities across North America: the House Finch and the American Goldfinch. While they can sound similar, a couple of key features help set them apart. House Finches sing sweetly but often have a sharp, buzzy note near the end. Goldfinches sing rapidly, often repeating a note several times. They also often make their distinctive call, which sounds like someone quickly saying “potato chip!”Support for BirdNote is provided by Mary Pigott of Seattle, Washington — and generous listeners around the world. More info and transcript at BirdNote.org.Want more BirdNote?

Nikki Glaser hosts the Golden Globes and goes scorched earth, ripping into CBS and the Justice Department in a monologue that has Hollywood and Washington buzzing. Meanwhile, Donald Trump floats the idea of invading Greenland—prompting a swift and serious response from NATO—and turns up the pressure on the Federal Reserve by pushing an investigation into Jerome Powell in an apparent attempt to coerce lower interest rates.

Send us a textA forged Warhol can fool a buyer, but it can't outrun metadata. We open the year with a case where art fraud, marital strain, and a chilling digital footprint converge: the murder of Anna Walsh and the conviction of her husband, Brian. What began with forged “Shadows” and private checks morphed into a slow-burn crisis—federal charges, stalled accountability, and a family split between Massachusetts and Washington, D.C. Anna built a new life and a new home, hoping legal closure would reunite her with her children. Instead, a New Year's dinner became the last time friends saw her alive.We chart the full arc of the Warhol scheme: the borrowed originals, the convincing reproductions, the eBay listings under Anna's name, and the LA gallery deal that unraveled when frames came off and stamps were missing. Then the focus shifts to January 2023—store receipts, hydrogen peroxide, a mask on camera, and a cascade of searches on household devices about decomposition, trash routes, and CCTV retention. There was no body to recover, but the tools seized carried her DNA, and the surveillance trail showed where the evidence went. Friends and a boyfriend added context: a woman pleading for accountability, longing for her kids, and trying to chart a path forward.The defense offered a story of sudden death and panic; the jury took six hours to return a first-degree murder verdict. We lay out why: motive grounded in control, money, and exposure; method captured by timestamps and purchase histories; and a portrait of a man whose fraud spilled from galleries into a marriage. It's a rare no-body case that underscores how search history, receipts, and cameras can replace the physical evidence we expect. Listen for a clear, human look at the choices that led here, the investigation that tied them together, and the hard questions left behind for Anna's family.If this resonated, share the episode with a friend, follow the show, and leave a review—your support helps more listeners find thoughtful, evidence-driven true crime stories.www.texaswineandtruecrime.com

Convidado: Filipe Figueiredo, historiador pela USP, colunista do jornal O Estado de São Paulo e criador do podcast Xadrez Verbal. Com a maior estrutura militar do planeta, há décadas os Estados Unidos transformaram seu poder bélico em instrumento de política externa. Em nome da segurança nacional e de interesses estratégicos, Washington atuou – direta ou indiretamente – para intervir na política de outros países ao redor do globo. Os resultados deixaram rastros de instabilidade e crises duradouras. A exemplo do que aconteceu no Iraque, no Irã e no Afeganistão, onde a ocupação americana durou duas décadas. Agora, o presidente dos EUA, Donald Trump, afirma que a intervenção na Venezuela não tem data para terminar – e vai durar até um processo de transição de poder. Neste episódio, Victor Boyadjian conversa com o historiador Filipe Figueiredo. Colunista do jornal O Estado de São Paulo e criador e apresentador do podcast Xadrez Verbal, Filipe relembra o que levou às invasões de países na América Latina e no Oriente Médio – e responde como o movimento MAGA dá uma nova roupagem ao processo de intervencionismo americano. Ele explica o que deu errado em uma série de processos de intervenção e, por fim, traça um paralelo entre as invasões do Iraque e da Venezuela.

Grab a beer and join us tonight as we head to Cohasset, Massachusetts, for the disappearance and murder of Ana Walshe! In the early hours of January 1, 2023, Ana, a 39-year-old real estate executive and mom of three who split time between Massachusetts and Washington, D.C., was last seen at home after New Year's Eve. Her husband, Brian Walshe, told police she left for a sudden work trip, but investigators couldn't confirm any ride to the airport or a flight out, and within days the story started falling apart. From there, the case turns into a brutal, evidence-heavy no-body prosecution: prosecutors laid out a trail of surveillance, dumpster runs, and a stack of internet searches about dismemberment and getting rid of remains, along with items recovered from trash processing that they said tied back to Ana.

NUCLEAR PROLIFERATION AND ECONOMIC ISOLATION AS DETERRENCE Colleagues James Fanell and Bradley Thayer. To deter immediate Chinese aggression, Fanell advocates for "war fighting proliferation," suggesting the US should support nuclear capabilities for allies like Japan and South Korea because conventional US forces cannot be rebuilt fast enough. Thayer argues for total economic decoupling, urging Washington to cut off trade to exploit Xi Jinping's domestic weaknesses. They propose "political warfare" to isolate the regime diplomatically, treating the CCPas a pariah to encourage internal dissent. They emphasize that the goal is not invasion, but power politics and credible deterrence to change Beijing's calculus without boots on the ground. FANELL NUMBER 41925 DUTCH MARINES PATROL SHANGHAI

THE ANACONDA STRATEGY AND THE NEO-ENGAGEMENT TRAP Colleagues James Fanell and Bradley Thayer. Fanell and Thayer discuss the "Joint Sword 2024 Alpha" exercises, describing them as an "Anaconda strategy" where the PRC practices suffocating Taiwan through blockades and missile strikes. Thayer argues that despite these overt threats, Washington remains captured by the "neo-engagement school," mistakenly believing that economic engagement can democratize China. They critique "elite capture" within US institutions, noting that the Bidenadministration has largely continued Obama-era policies rather than confronting the reality that the CCP is transforming international norms rather than being transformed by them.

Welcome to The Times of Israel's Daily Briefing, your 20-minute audio update on what's happening in Israel, the Middle East and the Jewish world. Diplomatic correspondent Lazar Berman joins host Amanda Borschel-Dan for today's episode. Iran’s parliament speaker has threatened to attack Israel and US military and shipping targets, were the US to launch a strike on the country that is increasingly isolated from the world by the theocratic regime. As nationwide protests reached the two-week mark today, we discuss how Iran’s Crown Prince Reza Pahlavi is trying to position himself as a player in his country’s future and the nexus between the anti-regime protests and Israel. The US military said on Saturday that it had carried out multiple strikes in Syria targeting the Islamic State terror group as part of an operation that Washington launched in December after an attack on American personnel on December 13. At the same time, after talks in Paris last week, Israel and Syria agreed to create a mechanism that will facilitate de-escalation, diplomacy and commercial opportunities between the two countries, according to a joint statement from the two countries and the US that was released by Washington. We unwind what is happening on the ground. Under a military aid package negotiated in 2016, Israel receives some $3.8 billion annually from the US, mostly in the form of subsidies to buy American-made arms. The aid package, which took effect in 2018, is set to expire in 2028. Recently, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is making statements that add up to a growing interest for Israel to wean itself from this aid. Berman weighs in. Check out The Times of Israel's ongoing liveblog for more updates.

America is currently engaged in an existential war for survival against powerful forces and the 92% of the world population that wishes to wipe out the first world generally and America specifically. Currently this war is not “hot,” meaning it's not being fought with armies wielding military weapons of violence. And may we all wish that it never achieves that level.Instead, we are engaged in a “soft” existential war for survival, in which the chess pieces are being moved into position, often using subterfuge, and ALWAYS accompanied by powerful and sophisticated propaganda wielded by our enemies.America was once a master of such propaganda, especially during our American Revolutionary War for independence. In fact, today, is the anniversary of the January 10, 1776 publication of the essay “Common Sense” by American propagandist Thomas Paine, which argued powerfully for America to split from the British monarch and establish a free Republic. What I'd like to cover today, however, is a different Thomas Paine essay that better illustrates the vital importance of propaganda to the good guys winning—his publication of “The American Crisis” published at the end of that same year, on December 19, 1776.That December the peoples who would form America were in desperate straits, having experienced much military failure in their battles with Britain, the most powerful military force on the planet at the time, and General George Washington's troops were dwindling in both numbers and morale. Paine's “American Crisis” was so powerful a piece of pro-American propaganda, however, that Washington immediately had it read aloud to his suffering troops—and just days later these same soldiers would cross the frozen Delaware on Christmas night and slay Hessian mercenaries employed by the British in their sleep. That victorious Battle of Trenton would be followed by another resounding victory a few days later in the Battle of Princeton, completely turning the tide of the revolution in America's favor. America could use a bit of Thomas Paine today, as we face our own existential travails against the tens of millions of aliens invading our shores, looting our treasury, degrading our culture, and striving to obliterate our first-world existence from the face of the globe.Let's talk about the nature and vital importance of propaganda, and read through Paine's “American Crisis,” in celebration of this great American's passion and genius for the emerging republic of the United States.

#257:  Before the USDA organic seal existed, the movement was held together by trust, community… and the courage to confront fraud when it appeared. Bob Scowcroft, former executive director of CCOF and co-founder of OFRF, tells the inside story of the famous “carrot caper” - a scandal that forced the public, the press, and the state of California to take organic seriously. Bob also recalls the Alar apple crisis, Meryl Streep's pivotal advocacy moment, the messy path toward unified standards, the political fights in Washington, the role of Senator Leahy, and the moment the organic movement transformed into an organic industry.https://realorganicproject.org/bob-scowcroft-birth-organic-label-257The Real Organic Podcast is hosted by Dave Chapman and Linley Dixon, engineered by Brandon StCyr, and edited and produced by Jenny Prince.The Real Organic Project is a farmer-led movement working towards certifying 1,000 farms across the United States this year. Our add-on food label distinguishes soil-grown fruits and vegetables from hydroponically-raised produce, and pasture-raised meat, milk, and eggs from products harvested from animals in horrific confinement (CAFOs - confined animal feeding operations).To find a Real Organic farm near you, please visit:https://www.realorganicproject.org/directoryWe believe that the organic standards, with their focus on soil health, biodiversity, and animal welfare were written as they should be, but that the current lack of enforcement of those standards is jeopardizing the ability for small farms who adhere to the law to stay in business. The lack of enforcement is also jeopardizing the overall health of the customers who support the organic movement; customers who are not getting what they pay for at market but still paying a premium price. And the lack of enforcement is jeopardizing the very cycles (water, air, nutrients) that Earth relies upon to provide us all with a place to live, by pushing extractive, chemical agriculture to the forefront.If you like what you hear and are feeling inspired, we would love for you to join our movement by becoming one of our 1,000  Real Friends:https://www.realorganicproject.org/real-organic-friends/To read our weekly newsletter (which might just be the most forwarded newsletter on the internet!) and get firsthand news about what's happening with organic food, farming and policy, please subscribe here:https://www.realorganicproject.org/email/

Vous aimez notre peau de caste ? Soutenez-nous ! https://www.lenouvelespritpublic.fr/abonnementUne émission de Philippe Meyer, enregistrée en public à l'École alsacienne le 11 janvier 2026.Avec cette semaine :Jean-Louis Bourlanges, essayiste, ancien président de la Commission des Affaires étrangères de l'Assemblée nationale.David Djaïz, entrepreneur et essayiste.Antoine Foucher, consultant, spécialiste des questions sociales, auteur de Sortir du travail qui ne paie plus.Lucile Schmid, présidente de La Fabrique écologique et membre du comité de rédaction de la revue Esprit.LE GRAND VIDE DES PARTIS POLITIQUESLe système institutionnel français, organisé pour structurer une alternance entre deux blocs, fonctionne désormais avec trois forces irréconciliables. Résultat : aucune majorité stable, aucun mandat clair et la porte ouverte à la démagogie puisque personne n'est responsable. Tandis que le Parlement s'enlise, l'exécutif temporise, l'opinion se lasse. Cette résignation est liée à une fatigue démocratique, sur fond de décomposition politique, dont l'Assemblée nationale fragmentée est le reflet. Fin décembre, le Cevipof et l'Obsoco (Observatoire société et consommation) ont publié les résultats d'une enquête réalisée par l'Ifop : « Priorités françaises ». Les Français ne placent plus en tête de leurs priorités le pouvoir d'achat ou l'inflation mais le fonctionnement du système politique. L'enquête montre une délégitimation personnelle du chef de l'État, une remise en cause institutionnelle et un rejet de la classe politique. Les Français ont des mots très durs et parlent des responsables politiques comme d'une « caste » dénoncée notamment pour sa « surdité ». La mobilisation agricole fait écho à ce désarroi de l'opinion face à un pouvoir qu'il juge « autoritaire ». Selon un sondage Ipsos/Cevipof, 34% des Français pensent que « d'autres systèmes politiques peuvent être aussi bons que la démocratie ».Au très fort degré de défiance dont souffrent aujourd'hui l'exécutif et le Parlement s'ajoute la difficulté qu'éprouvent les partis de gouvernement à apporter une réponse crédible aux bouleversements en cours : déclin démographique, réchauffement climatique, extrême vulnérabilité du continent européen face au retour des tensions militaires et commerciales, révolution de l'intelligence artificielle. La politique se limite de plus en plus à la gestion, la France paraît privée de récits fédérateurs, observe le politologue Brice Soccol qui rappelle que pendant des décennies, la vie politique française s'est structurée autour de visions du monde fortes : le progrès, la révolution, la nation, l'État-providence, la lutte des classes, la justice sociale … Aujourd'hui, ni la gauche de gouvernement ni la droite classique ne racontent plus d'histoire. Elles administrent, ajustent, corrigent. Leur horizon s'est rétréci au calendrier budgétaire et parlementaire amplifié par la dissolution ratée de 2024. Engluées dans leurs divisions internes et leurs obsessions du casting présidentiel, les forces politiques ne parviennent pas à structurer le débat public avec de nouvelles idées, à dessiner des raisons d'espérer. Si mercredi, le président des Républicains, Bruno Retailleau a présenté des mesures économiques pour encourager le travail, elles ont un air de déjà-vu. Dans la perspective desPrésidentielles de 2027, alors que les partis protestataires – le Rassemblement national et La France Insoumise sont quasiment en ordre de marche, le grand flou règne du côté des partis de gouvernement, tant sur le candidat, les programmes que sur le mode de désignation. Un grand flou sur un grand vide.OÙ VA LA « DOCTRINE DONROE » ?Avec l'enlèvement du président vénézuélien Nicolás Maduro, à l'aube du 3 janvier, Donald Trump entend désormais régir l'ensemble du continent américain et avoir la main sur l'« hémisphère occidental », mis au service de la prospérité et la sécurité des États-Unis. Des élections au Vénézuéla ne semblent à ce stade pas à l'ordre du jour : « nous attachons de l'importance à la démocratie. Mais ce qui nous importe avant tout, c'est la sécurité, le bien-être et la prospérité des États-Unis », a précisé le secrétaire d'État américain Marco Rubio. Les États-Unis réactivent ainsi la doctrine Monroe de 1823 selon laquelle l'hémisphère occidental devait être la chasse gardée exclusive de Washington.La Stratégie nationale de sécurité des États-Unis publiée en novembre dernier se réfère explicitement à ce précédent, tandis que la presse américaine l'a déjà baptisée « doctrine Donroe », condensé de Donald et Monroe. Les autres pays de la région, qu'ils soient amis comme le Mexique ou ennemis comme Cuba, ont été mis en garde : ils devront coopérer avec les Etats-Unis ou en subir les conséquences. Les gouvernements latino-américains de gauche, comme celui du Brésil, se sont déclarés particulièrement alarmés par la violation de la Charte des Nations unies. Ceux de droite, comme celui d'Argentine se sont montrés plus favorables. Ceux d'autres régions du monde, notamment en Europe, ont plaidé en faveur de la stabilité.Sur la « liste des envies » de Trump figurent également le Canada, le canal de Panama, et le Groenland. Dès le lendemain de l'enlèvement du président vénézuélien, Donald Trump est revenu sur l'idée d'annexer le Groenland, jugeant qu'il « nous le faut absolument, pour des raisons de sécurité nationale ». Cette sortie a déclenché de nombreuses protestations des Européens. La Première ministre danoise en a été réduite à invoquer l'article 5 de l'Otan pour protéger le royaume contre … le leader de l'Otan. Les Européens semblent pris au dépourvu par l'accélération des événements. La doctrine Donroe marque le retour explicite d'un monde où l'appartenance à une sphère d'influence l'emporte sur la souveraineté. Une sphère d'influence américaine extensible bien au-delà du continent américain : en mars 2025 Donald Trump avait ordonné une campagne de frappes contre les rebelles Houthi au Yémen, en juin contre les installations nucléaires iraniennes et en décembre au Nigéria contre des militants du groupe Etat islamique. Le président américain menace de nouveau d'intervenir en Iran si la répression des manifestations se poursuit. Il confiait vendredi au New York Times, « je n'ai pas besoin du droit international » assurant que sa « moralité » est son unique limite pour agir dans le monde.Chaque semaine, Philippe Meyer anime une conversation d'analyse politique, argumentée et courtoise, sur des thèmes nationaux et internationaux liés à l'actualité.

In this episode of The PDB Situation Report: First up—less than a week after a United States special operations mission removed Nicolás Maduro from power, new details are emerging about how the operation unfolded and what comes next for Venezuela. We're joined by Rick de la Torre, retired Central Intelligence Agency operations officer and former Station Chief in Caracas, with insight into both the mission itself and Washington's long game in the region. Later in the show—nationwide demonstrations in Iran continue to escalate, shifting from economic grievances to open defiance of the regime's legitimacy. Behnam Ben Taleblu from the Foundation for Defense of Democracies joins us to break down what this moment means for Tehran, how the regime may respond, and where the protests could be headed next.

The National Championship Game is set! Andy Staples, Ross Dellenger and Steven Godfrey look ahead to the final matchup of the season by reacting to both semifinal matchups. They first talk about Indiana's dominating performance over Oregon. Will the Hoosiers' execution and talent win them a national title? How does Indiana stack up with the historically dominant national champions of the past? Then, they discuss the much more exciting semifinal matchup that saw Miami come out on top. How can Miami upset Indiana? What kind of advantage will playing in their home stadium create for the Hurricanes? Plus, will Oregon ever win a national championship?Then, the guys look at some things happening off of the field in the college football world. After their loss to Miami, Ole Miss found out that Trinidad Chambliss' request for another year of eligibility has been denied by the NCAA. However, this is not the end of the story as Chambliss will now sue the NCAA for damages spawning from the money he would make in NIL with that additional season. The guys discuss if Chambliss' has a chance in this case, or if there is another motive behind the lawsuit.Finally, the guys look at the madness of the transfer portal. First they discuss the Demond Williams drama. After trying to enter the transfer portal, and Washington refusing to enter his name due his signed contract, Williams has now returned to the Huskies. Andy, Ross and Godfrey discuss what all happened in Seattle. Then, they look at the College Sports Commission's investigation into how schools are writing NIL contracts. How will these contracts continue to evolve over time?Get ready for the Natty with College Football Enquirer.0:00:00 - Indiana dominates Oregon14:37 - Miami advances over Ole Miss24:51 - Will Oregon ever win a Natty?29:46 - Trinidad Chambliss' fight for a 6th year40:49 - Demond Williams drama52:12 - College Sports Commission investigation Subscribe to the College Football Enquirer on your favorite podcast app:

Ian Bremmer unpacks the fallout from the Trump administration's dramatic operation in Caracas that captured Venezuelan strongman Nicolás Maduro and brought him to the US to face federal charges. The raid was a stark demonstration of American power, and few are mourning the fall of a leader whose rule helped collapse Venezuela and drive millions to flee. But even with Maduro gone, the hard questions start immediately: who governs now, how long does the US stay involved, and how quickly could “stability” turn into something far messier?First, Bremmer speaks with Democratic Senator Ruben Gallego, who says the operation may have been “limited” in scope, but the political and strategic risks are only beginning. Gallego argues that the White House is improvising and that Congress is watching closely for signs of escalation. “There really isn't a plan,” he warns. “They're kind of just playing this as it goes, which is very scary that they're doing that.” He lays out what a more sustainable path could look like, including releasing political prisoners, setting a timeline for elections, and pursuing economic steps that reduce the chances of renewed conflict.Then Bremmer is joined by Stanford political scientist Frank Fukuyama, who cautions against viewing Maduro's capture as a clean “one and done” victory. The regime, he argues, is bigger than any single leader, and the US may be stepping into a long, unpredictable project whether it admits it or not. “Let's not kid ourselves,” Fukuyama says. “This is a nation building exercise.” From the risk of economic collapse and refugee flows to the precedent set by a US foreign policy driven by raw leverage, Fukuyama and Bremmer explore what happens when Washington embraces the “law of the jungle,” and why the consequences could extend well beyond Venezuela.Host: Ian BremmerGuests: Ruben Gallego and Francis Fukuyama Subscribe to the GZERO World with Ian Bremmer Podcast on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or your preferred podcast platform, to receive new episodes as soon as they're published.

As part of the NSF–DOE Vera C. Rubin Observatory First Look event in June 2025, Rubin announced that it had observed thousands of asteroids cruising about our Solar System, about 1,900 of which have been confirmed as never-before-seen. Within the flurry, a team of astronomers has discovered 19 super- and ultra-fast-rotating asteroids. One of these is the fastest-spinning asteroid larger than 500 meters (0.3 miles) ever found. In this podcast, Dr. Sarah Greenstreet discusses these fast spinning asteroids and what makes the Rubin Observatory ideal for discovering these types of objects.   Bios:  - Rob Sparks is in the Communications, Education and Engagement group at NSF's NOIRLab in Tucson, Arizona. - Sarah Greenstreet is a tenure-track assistant astronomer at the NSF National Optical-Infrared Astronomy Research Laboratory (NOIRLab) and an affiliate assistant professor in the University of Washington's Department of Astronomy. She is also a member of the Rubin Observatory Community Science Team and has served as the Lead for the Rubin Observatory Solar System Science Collaboration's Near-Earth Objects and Interstellar Objects Working Group for the past seven years. Prof. Greenstreet's research program broadly focuses on orbital dynamics, characterization, and impacts of small bodies across the Solar System, with a particular focus on the rarest and most unusual asteroids.

On this episode of The Drive & Dish NBA Podcast, hosted by Kevin Rafuse (@rafusetolose) and Justin Cousart (@JustinContheAir), the guys start the show by breaking down the Trae Young trade. What this means for the Hawks moving forward now that they've pulled the trigger and why the guys feel like this was the right time. What can we expect from Trae in Washington? Is this a long term marriage? Next, the Grizzlies are open to moving Ja Morant. What is Ja's value worth at this point and does this signal a full rebuild for the Grizz? Next, Giannis commits again to the Bucks. Can they turn things around this season? In Who's Ballin Who's Fallin, Ant Edwards hits 10,000 points, the Thunder hit a skid, Derik Queen hooping and the Pels decision to keep their guys and ref Bill Kennedy goes down during the Sixers/Magic game.

On this episode of Conduct Detrimental: THE Sports Law Podcast, Dan Lust (⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@SportsLawLust)⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠is joined by Mike Lawson (⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@Mikesonoflaw⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠) and Mike Kravchenko (⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Watch on YouTube⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠) to reunite for a Mike & Mike edition tackling the latest sports law stories of the week.The trio opens with the Demond Williams NIL saga, breaking down the Washington quarterback's $4 million revenue-sharing agreement, his abrupt transfer announcement, the Washington blockade, and his dramatic reversal to stay with the Huskies. The trio discusses the enforceability of NIL contracts in a post-House settlement world, who pays buyout clauses when players breach deals, and why Williams split with Wasserman mid-process. The conversation shifts to Trinidad Chambliss and his denied sixth-year waiver appeal. The Ole Miss playoff quarterback, who led Ferris State to a Division II title before transferring, faced NCAA rejection over insufficient medical documentation from 2022. Tom Mars entered the fight to appeal, but Mike K explains why four-year-old medical records and Ferris State's lack of documentation create a difficult case.Next, the episode dives into trademark chaos surrounding the Las Vegas Athletics. The USPTO denied the team's applications for "Las Vegas Athletics" and "Vegas Athletics" as geographically descriptive and too generic—despite the same name working in Philadelphia, Kansas City, and Oakland. Mike K unpacks the Oakland fan group Last Dive Bar's competing trademark claim, the reality of what the USPTO website actually shows, and whether the A's will rebrand entirely or fight through appeals before their 2028 Vegas stadium opens. Mike L closes baseball with the breaking news of Max Kepler's 80-game PED suspension.The discussion then turns to Anthony Joshua, where Dan provides an update on the recent car crash in Nigeria that left two dead. Dan walks through what this means, the evidentiary challenges of a destroyed vehicle, and the tragedy of Joshua's world flipping from a knockout victory over Jake Paul to losing friends in a crash.Mike L and Dan tackle the ugliest side of sports: online harassment and death threats aimed at kickers. Following Tyler Loop's missed playoff kick for the Ravens and Chris Boswell's blocked extra point for the Steelers, both faced vicious online attacks.The episode wraps with quick hits on Stefon Diggs, whose felony strangulation arraignment was postponed until after the Super Bowl despite originally facing arraignment during the AFC Championship—raising questions about the NFL's Personal Conduct Policy and why he's still suiting up for the Patriots. Mike L shares his what to watch for: a preview of the Supreme Court's January 13th arguments on transgender athlete bans in Idaho and West Virginia.Let us know your thoughts!***Have a topic you want to write about?

In this weekend's episode, three segments from this past week's Washington Journal. First, the aftermath of the U-S military operation in Venezuela that toppled President Nicolas Maduro dominated Washington this week. We speak with Republican Randy Fine of Florida – a member of the Foreign Affairs Committee – about the future of U-S involvement in that country. The U-S military strikes and the capture of Maduro has raised all kinds of legal and constitutional questions. We break it all down with Creighton University Professor and international law expert Michael Kelly Finally, this week also saw the 5th anniversary of the January 6th attack on the Capitol. We chat with Associated Press Congressional Reporter Mary Clare Jalonick about the legacy of that day which she examines in her book "Storm at the Capitol: An Oral History of January 6th."

This week has been BUSY with activity in Low Earth Orbit on the Space Station! This episode is a recap from our LIVE Hangout broadcast on social media during NASA's International Space Station Update. We hear from the new NASA Administrator (Jared Isaacman), the Associate Administrator (Amit Kshatriya), and the Chief Space Medical Officer (Dr. James D. Polk) as they answer questions from NASA HQ in Washington, D.C. as the ISS operation teams at JSC in Houston were prepping Crew 11 to come home.  Hear my thoughts at the start and close - this conference was really good and a sign of the kind of leadership Jared Isaacman is bringing to NASA. One major takeaway, aside from wishing the now stable Astronaut gets home safetly, is that NASA really has a good head on it's shoulders. There is a lot of work to do - but in this I feel confident there are good winds of change under NASA's wings.
