Buy in out on NFL team Josh Robbins joins the show Wizards aren't good...yet

In the final hour of The Chris Russell Show, Lynnell Willingham is joined by Ben Strober of Locked On Wizards to break down everything Wizards as the young cast settles into the season. Next, Lynnell brings in A-MAC and Cowboy B to recap Thursday Night Football, focusing on the Patriots vs. Jets matchup and discussing the struggles of Justin Fields. The conversation continues with Sam Bruchhaus of Sumer Sports bringing additional insight before Lynnell wraps up the show by reviewing his Monday morning headlines and giving his pick for the Commanders vs. Dolphins game. This hour blends NBA and NFL analysis, expert commentary, and fan-focused breakdowns to close out the day with all the action you need.

In the first hour of Chris Russell's show, Lynnell Willingham fills in and opens with a strong message: without Daron Payne, the Commanders need someone to step up along the defensive line. Lynnell then takes the conversation broader, asking listeners what Monday's headlines will say after Washington's matchup with the Dolphins in Spain. He challenges the fanbase with a tough hypothetical: how would you feel if the Commanders lost their fifth straight? Plus, we play and react to more comments from Dan Quinn, and Lynnell explains why Washington's biggest obstacle isn't the injuries themselves, but the lack of depth behind the starters.

Hour 3 with Lynnell Willingham: Analyzing Dan Quinn's statement's from yesterday's presser / Reviewing all the movement today ahead of the NFL trade deadline / Bijan Todd of Monumental Sports talks about the young Wizards talent / The University of Maryland plans to raise $350 million for sports

Hour 2 with Lynnell Willingham: Callers estimate how long it will take for the Commanders to be contenders / Kevin Sheehan joins the show to talk about where the Commanders go next

Hour 1 with Lynnell Willingham: Tonight is gonna be Lynnell's therapy session / How far away are the Commanders from being a contender in the NFC? / A lot of the blame is on Adam Peters, but not all of it / The running game needs to be leaned on more to find success / There are a lot of AP draft picks that haven't developed (yet)

Think about a good joke. If you knew the punchline right away? It's less funny. If you had to have the punchline explained? Less funny. But if you understood the punchline within a few moments, and got the satisfaction of "realization" in real time? That makes a BANGER of a joke. It's all about the appropriate level of challenge and thinking. According to Daniel Willingham's book, "Why Students Don't Like School?" Curiosity is fragile. Learning is difficult as hell. Our brains are built for efficiency, not thinking. We can trick our brains into motivation by worrying about the difficulty of the challenge, rather than the topic or the content. We rely on our memories more than our thinking brain.SOURCES:Read Daniel's article for yourself, here: https://www.aft.org/sites/default/files/WILLINGHAM%282%29.pdfCheck out his website + other work: http://www.danielwillingham.com/books.htmlOr read this synopsis of the book: https://classteaching.wordpress.com/2014/04/24/why-dont-students-like-school/Resources for Resisting a Coup: https://makeyourdamnbed.medium.com/practical-guides-to-resisting-a-coup-b44571b9ad66SUPPORT JULIE (and the show!): https://supporter.acast.com/make-your-damn-bedDONATE to the Palestinian Children's Relief Fund: www.pcrf.netGET AN OCCASIONAL PERSONAL EMAIL FROM ME: www.makeyourdamnbedpodcast.comTUNE IN ON INSTAGRAM FOR COOL CONTENT: www.instagram.com/mydbpodcastOR BE A REAL GEM + TUNE IN ON PATREON: www.patreon.com/MYDBpodcastOR WATCH ON YOUTUBE: www.youtube.com/juliemerica The opinions expressed by Julie Merica and Make Your Damn Bed Podcast are intended for entertainment purposes only.

Curiosity is fragile. Learning is difficult as hell. Our brains are built for efficiency, not thinking. We can trick our brains into motivation by worrying about the difficulty of the challenge, rather than the topic or the content. We rely on our memories more than our thinking brain. According to Daniel Willingham's book, "Why Students Don't Like School?" "Thinking occurs when you combine information (from the environment and from long-term memory) in new ways. That combination happens in working memory."

Episode 82 In this episode, we follow the fallout of the Cameron Todd Willingham case — a story that didn't end at the execution chamber. When fire scientist Dr. Gerald Hurst sounded the alarm that the arson evidence used to convict Willingham was based on junk science, Texas had a choice: pause and reevaluate, or push forward and protect its image. It chose the latter. We'll unpack how political pressure and flawed forensics collided, how the Texas Forensic Science Commission became a battleground for truth, and how one governor's ambition may have buried accountability for good. We'll also examine how the echoes of this case continue today — through the fight to apply the state's Junk Science Law, and the ongoing battle to win a fair trial for Robert Roberson, another man condemned by discredited science. Because justice isn't just about verdicts — it's about what we do after we know the truth. Help Stop Robert Roberson's Execution!!!

Episode 81 A fire, a flawed science, and a state that still hasn't learned. In 1991, Cameron Todd Willingham was convicted of setting the house fire that killed his three young children. Despite a mountain of later evidence debunking the “arson indicators” used against him, Texas executed Willingham in 2004—long after leading fire scientists warned that the case rested on junk science. Two decades later, Texas is preparing to repeat history. On October 16th, the state is scheduled to execute Robert Roberson, a man condemned under similarly discredited forensic theories and medical misunderstandings that doomed Willingham. The very science that convicted him has since been proven false, yet the machinery of “justice” continues to grind forward. In this first installment of our Texas Justice series, we revisit the Willingham case: How old-school fire investigation methods created a template for wrongful arson convictions The experts who tried to stop an execution built on myth The political forces that refused to listen—and what that refusal means for Robert Roberson today Help Stop Robert Roberson's Execution!!!

Ever wondered why some students struggle despite hours of studying while others seem to master information efficiently? Cognitive psychologist Dr. Daniel Willingham, author of the book Outsmart Your Brain: Why Learning is Hard and How You Can Make It Easy joined us to discuss the fascinating science behind this phenomenon, explaining that most college students succeed despite their study strategies, not because of them. Dr. Willingham explained why we're naturally drawn to inefficient learning methods that feel productive but yield disappointing results. He compares these approaches to "doing push-ups on your knees" – they seem easier and faster, but they don't build the mental strength needed for deep learning. Parents will find particular value in Dr. Willingham's three-part framework for supporting student success: set high expectations, express confidence they can be met, and provide support in meeting them. Whether your student is thriving or struggling, these evidence-based approaches can transform their college experience by making learning more efficient and effective.Thank you for listening!

Today, we are joined by Dr. Daniel Willingham.Dr. Daniel T. Willingham is a Professor of Psychology at the University of Virginia, known for his work applying cognitive psychology to K-16 education. He earned his B.A. from Duke University and his Ph.D. in Cognitive Psychology from Harvard University. Initially, his research focused on the brain basis of learning and memory, but he later shifted his focus to the practical applications of cognitive science in education. He is the author of several books, including Why Don't Students Like School?, When Can You Trust the Experts?, and The Reading Mind.In this continuation of our conversation, we explore the practical applications of cognitive science for learning and development. Dr. Willingham breaks down complex concepts around knowledge, intelligence, expertise, and practice while challenging common misconceptions about how we learn. From understanding what IQ really measures to debunking the myth of general critical thinking skills, he provides evidence-based insights that reshape how we should approach learning both in educational settings and professional development.Key topics include:-Why background knowledge is essential for retaining new information and understanding context -The relationship between knowledge and skills and why they cannot be separated -How chunking works and why experts see patterns that novices cannot recognize -The two components of IQ: fluid intelligence (working memory) vs crystallized intelligence (knowledge) -Why IQ can be changed and what it actually measures versus what people think it measures -The progression from rote to shallow to deep knowledge and when each is appropriate -How experts organize knowledge differently than novices, not just know more -Why knowledge transfer is so difficult and domain-specific, even within similar contexts -Whether critical thinking can be taught and the limitations of general thinking skills -The essential role of practice in learning and why there are no shortcuts to proficiency -Deliberate practice principles and how to identify weaknesses to improve systematically -Three forces that shape learning mindset: social comparisons, friendships, and family values -Why adults need to shift from grades-based to application-based measures of success -The challenges and opportunities AI presents for effective learning strategiesWhether you're designing training programs, teaching others, or working to improve your own learning, Dr. Willingham's research-backed insights challenge popular but ineffective approaches and provide a clearer understanding of how learning actually works.Dr. Daniel Willingham's Books: danielwillingham.com/booksDr. Willingham's Website: danielwillingham.com-Website and live online programs: http://ims-online.comBlog: https://blog.ims-online.com/Podcast: https://ims-online.com/podcasts/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/charlesgood/Twitter: https://twitter.com/charlesgood99Chapters:(00:00) Introduction(01:40) Why Background Knowledge Helps Retain New Information (06:00) Chunking and How Experts Organize Knowledge Differently(08:00) The Two Components of IQ and Why It Can Be Changed (12:00) From Rote to Shallow to Deep Knowledge(15:00) Why Knowledge Transfer Is So Difficult and Domain-Specific (20:00) Can Critical Thinking Be Taught as a General Skill?
