See below for timestamps! In today's episode we kick off the case of David Michael Crawford, a retired Maryland Police Chief turned serial arsonist. We will be starting with the first arson in a series he was linked to in court with a fire at the home of a fellow city employee. We're bringing you a deep dive into a case I've been researching for over 6 months and currently this case is pending appeal in Maryland. Join us as we dive into one twisted and shocking serial arson case on Crime to Burn.  We begin this case with many disclaimers and explanations about evidence, sources, and testimony in this case and they are important. I have provided time stamps below in case you wish to fast forward to the case but the disclaimers will provide you with additional insight into the judicial process and criminal court cases.  Timestamps: Disclaimers begin at 2:49 2:49 - 4:08 - A discussion about crimes the defendant has been convicted of and the difference between accused and convicted.  4:08 - 5:06 - An explanation of some evidence presented in court related to fires other than the ones for which he was standing trial.  5:06 - 6:44 - A discussion of the defendant's wife and explanation that she is not accused of being involved nor of having knowledge of her husband's crimes.  6:44 - 8:25 - Discussion of crimes unrelated to the arsons presented in court which members of the defendant's immediate family indicated in press reports they suspect Crawford's involvement.  8:25 - 10:27 - Explanation of court recordings and bench conversations and differentiating between what can be gleaned from the court recordings verses what was known to the jury. Also includes a discussion of hearsay, probative value of evidence and testimony, and prejudicial testimony.  10:27 - 11:45 - Discussion of state's burden in criminal cases and constitutional rights of defendants to not testify. 11:45 - 13:17: Discussion of off the record sources used for this podcast and a reminder that all witnesses are off-limits until the conclusion of the appeal. 13:17 - 15:34 - My own personal implicit bias due to my involvement in some of the organizations involved in this case.  15:34 - 17:05 - Discussion of what court records were obtained and what records were not used and why.  17:05 - 18:12 - Discussion about defense attorney. UPDATE AFTER RECORDING: Mr. Bonsib did reply to my email and provided the appellate brief but has indicated that given the pending appeal, he does not feel it would be appropriate to discuss the case with me. I understand and respect his decision.  18:12 - 20:27 - Discussion about narrative storytelling and using emotions to drive the narrative and a reminder that these perspectives used for storytelling are not intended to imply guilt or innocence of the defendant. Also discussion about authentically presenting the emotions and implications of others and not my own.  20:27 END OF DISCLAIMERS.  Background Music is by Not Notoriously Coordinated.  Please follow us on X, Facebook and Instagram.

We want to express our deepest sympathies and condolences to the family of Corey Comperatore. He was killed during the attempted assassination of former President Trump.  According to NBC Philadelphia, Comperatore raised two daughters with his high school sweetheart and spent his final moments shielding his family that he loved so much from the gunfire. May he rest in peace. His family is in our prayers. We also want to wish a quick recovery to those who were injured in the assassination attempt, including former president Donald Trump and rally attendees David Dutch and James Copenhaver. And lastly our condolences to all others impacted by this political violence. Violence has absolutely no place in a civilized society. Given how much our democracy and country have been through, we thought on this episode of the Utterly Moderate Podcast we would lighten things up a bit and talk about something that perhaps we all might have some positive feelings about: one of our founding fathers.  It is July after all, America’s month of celebrating our independence. In the spirit of July and America and trying to find some positivity right now, on this episode we bring you a replay of our conversation with George Washington University historian Denver Brunsman. He previously joined the show to share his insights on the life and career of George Washington, as well as his general reflections on the study of history and its place in the modern university.  Enjoy the conversation and don’t forget to sign up for our free email newsletter in one click! ------------- ------------- Episode Audio: "Air Background Corporate" by REDCVT (Free Music Archive) "Please Listen Carefully" by Jahzzar (Free Music Archive) "Last Dance" by Jahzzar (Free Music Archive) “Happy Trails (To You)” by the Riders in the Sky (used with artist’s permission) "Washington Post March" by the U.S. Marine Band (publicly available on YouTube)

This episode of The American Tapestry Project explores how Americans celebrate freedom through holidays and music. Who was Francis Scott Key and why did he write “The Defence of Fort McHenry” and how did that become “The Star-Spangled Banner”? Which child of immigrants wrote “Stars and Stripes Forever” and “The Washington Post March”? Which other immigrant wrote “God Bless America”? And who was “the Yankee Doodle Dandy” who wrote “It's a Grand Old Flag”? And who was Katharine Lee Bates, the poet Boston.com called “a gay, feminist badass from Massachusetts” who wrote “America the Beautiful”? Like they say on the late night infomercials, ‘all this and more' as we explore American patriotic music and the freedom of which it sings – American freedom holidays on The American Tapestry Project.

Click here to join the Connors Crew and get our cool newsletter—it takes only a few seconds! This week's newsletter article: “Communities Impact Children's Lives in Powerful Ways.” Happy Independence Day everyone! We know times are tough right now in this country. Mass shootings have rocked us once again. Inflation is high and economic troubles loom. A series of Supreme Court decisions have left you either elated or saddened depending upon your point of view. American democracy faces a five-alarm fire—each passing week we find out just how close we were to losing our democracy, and how little stands in the way of a successful coup in the future. So what is the path forward? Do we take all of this as a sign of impending decline and brace ourselves for the end of the great American experiment? Or do we treat this as an inflection point where we realize what a great country this is, how very much we have to lose, and decide to get back to the basics and ideals that have stood the test of time, such as honesty, truth, civility, democracy, and so forth? This country has done so many great things and has the potential to do so much more if we can come together, heal what has been damaged, and emerge a stronger society on the other side. Such a vision should give us hope and optimism this July 4th. It will not be easy and it will not be quick, but it is necessary and it is achievable. Now on to the show. . . Segment 1: We Should Have Paid Attention in Math Class In segment one of this Utterly Moderateepisode, host Lawrence Eppard is joined by James Zimring, a professor in the University of Virginia's School of Medicine, to discuss his new book, Partial Truths: How Fractions Distort Our Thinking. Here is an excerpt from the book's description: “A fast-food chain once tried to compete with McDonald's quarter-pounder by introducing a third-pound hamburger―only for it to flop when consumers thought a third pound was less than a quarter pound because three is less than four. . . James C. Zimring argues that many of the mistakes that the human mind consistently makes boil down to misperceiving fractions. We see slews of statistics that are essentially fractions, such as percentages, probabilities, frequencies, and rates, and we tend to misinterpret them. . . Blending key scientific research in cognitive psychology with accessible real-life examples, Partial Truths helps readers spot the fallacies lurking in everyday information, from politics to the criminal justice system, from religion to science, from business strategies to New Age culture.” Segment 2: A New Resource for Fighting Misinformation (segment starts around the 50-minute mark) In the second segment we are joined by Arjun Moorthy, co-founder of The Factual, a website that uses an innovative method to help determine whether news sources are credible or not: artificial intelligence. He talks about the work that they do at The Factual and the importance of news literacy in modern America.

In this episode you will hear:   (15:20) Mark and Dave discuss a Washington Post March 23rd, 2022 article by Wisconsin math professor Jordan Ellenberg, entitled, “Did Columbia game US News college rankings”. The article describes the research math professor at Columbia, Michael Thaddeus has done to expose how the data Columbia presented to US News was erroneous to such a level that it cannot be seen as an innocent mistake. He describes how Columbia moved from 18th to 2nd in the USNWR rankings. Mark and Dave discuss why this data fabrication happens all too often but they save most of their fire for exposing how preposterous the rankings are.     (40:12) Question from a listener-   If you like our article discussions, you will get a double dose in episode 222. Our question from a listener asks Lisa what she thinks of Derek Thompson, article in the Atlantic entitled, “Why American teens are so sad”. Mark describes the introductory content of the article and then he asks Lisa for feedback point by point. This is such an important topic that Lisa will take 25 minutes this week and 25 minutes next week to go into details about the four main points that the article makes.

Finally back on the road, Ernie and Jerry stop into a favorite haunt for the night. However, it is in Ohio. Ohio is home to five newspapers in the Scripps-Howard newspaper chain, Ernie's employer, and whenever he sets foot in Ohio they harass him for stories about their cities. It is all Ernie and Jerry can do to stay incognito until they get out of Ohio. A drink and a room, that's all they ask!

Blake has a great idea: maybe they should have some plays. Guest Mike Carlucci has a great idea: let’s introduce the idea of a movie about a mule that plays football. That will keep us on topic! We talk about Jones as an off-field team leader, The Washington Post March by John Phillips Souza, the classic film Little Giants, and Lindsay Lohan. (Yes, again, back off.) Come for the argument that everyone should play flag football instead of tackle, stay for us convinced that’s Colonel Flagg hiding in plain sight by disguising himself as Hammond’s aide.

Maureen has had a Bad Week and didn't follow any news. Not to fear! Dan has once again been following the most important story of the week. Paul Manafort.... no. The shutdown being... no. Not that either. Oh, Rodger Stone threatening his judg... no? Not that? What was it? It turns out Dan has outdone himself and has poured hours and hours of research and collected documentation and collected the dots on... a photo of Trump getting an omelette? It sounds implausible, silly... but then he breaks it down, taking you on a wild journey that goes from Walgreens, to DoJo's divorce, to the award-industrial complex, art fraud, the mob, some people named Muffy and Biffy, attempted murder, and a goddamned giant eagle statue.

We are excited to share our feature-length audio commentary for Back To The Future. After weeks of exploring Alan Silvestri's sensational underscore (as well as the film's memorable song soundtrack) we're thrilled to revisit one of our favorite films from start to finish.

It has been a pleasure and a privilege covering BTTF and today we hope to put all its' wonderful music and story into context.  Sit back, crack open a Pepsi-free and enjoy!

Senior Writer, Publishers Weekly   Interview starts at 19:24 and ends at 33:23 I absolutely think it's madness to continue to push for regulatory input into the eBook market. Look what it did for you last time. Let's just let the lawyers go away now. We've all articulated what we think the problem is in the market. Publishers came together to put the agency model in place, and they perfectly articulated the reason why they believe the agency model should be in place. I think that there's got to be business solutions at this point.    News “Supreme Court Rejects Apple's Appeal” by Andrew Albanese at Publishers Weekly - March 7, 2016 “Supreme Court Declines to Hear Apple's Appeal in E-Book Pricing Case” by Adam Liptak and Vindu Goel at The New York Times - March 7, 2016 Hagens Berman press release on Supreme Court decision - March 8, 2016 “Apple's $400M E-Book Payout: How Much You'll Get and When” by Jeff John Roberts at Fortune - March 8, 2016 Department of Justice press release on Apple case - March 7, 2016 “The Cost of Returning Encryption to Amazon Fire” (video) at BloombergBusiness - March 7, 2016 “Jeff Bezos Lifts Veil on his Rocket Company, Blue Origin” by Kenneth Chang - March 8, 2016 “Why Jeff Bezos is finally ready to talk about taking people to space” by Christian Davenport at The Washington Post - March 8, 2016 “The Echo from Amazon Brims with Groundbreaking Promise” by Farhad Manjoo at The New York Times - March 9, 2016 “B&N is Shutting Down One of Its Top Three Digital Blunders on March 15” by Nate Hoffelder at The Digital Reader - March 3, 2016 “B&N CDO Fred Argir: We Must Win the Mobile Experience” by Daniel Berkowitz at Digital Book World - March 8, 2016   Tech Tips How to save an audio clip using the Audible for Windows 10 app (video and instructions) Kindle for iOS update   Interview with Andrew Albanese “Supreme Court Rejects Apple's Appeal” by Andrew Albanese at Publishers Weekly - March 7, 2016 Stories by Andrew Albanese at Publishers Weekly   Content “How to Format Your Book for Kindle,” a web course by Bruce Jones.
