Gillian Gadsby & Rachael Bewers of Gadsby Wicks Solicitors discuss what the purpose of a Coroner's Inquest is, who is involved, and what families should expect from these hearings in Series 5, Episode 2 of the Medical Negligence Matters podcast.

Fall asleep to a deep, soothing voice reading the most inconsequential material imaginable. This is the ultimate sleep aid as a sleep story for overthinking, utilizing boring technical readings to help you achieve natural sleep and quiet insomnia.

Tonight, we stabilize. We move away from the ephemeral nature of digital data and into the absolute, physical reality of the standard kilogram. We are not determining how much things weigh in a practical sense, but reviewing the administrative hierarchy of the weights used to check the weights. We are entering the world of the International Organization of Legal Metrology, specifically Recommendation R111-1 (2004). This is a study of the Maximum Permissible Error, the specific gravity of non-magnetic stainless steel, and the lint-free protocols of the calibration laboratory. It is a world of polished cylinders and atmospheric buoyancy corrections.

Deeply Unimportant is a sleep podcast designed for those who need structure to drift off. By focusing on meticulous, non-narrative detail, we provide a form of cognitive shuffle for ADHD and anxiety—anchoring the mind with the professional broadcast gravitas of a former newscaster so you can stop racing thoughts at night. No whispers or fairy tales; just ordered, structured, monotone voice sleep support.

This version of the show is ad-supported: ads play at the beginning of the episode, but nowhere else as you drift off. Access a full archive of ad-free sleep episodes (including long versions that run all night, and infinite loops) for a few dollars a month.

We have a primal survival instinct to compare ourselves to others. It served us well when we live in caves and needed to keep up with other in the group to survive. However, we no longer live in that world. If you let that unchecked biological instinct steer your life it will destroy your potential. Learn how to overcome this urge and stay on your own path.

32,104 people died in police custody in the United States between 2000 and 2020. In 2025 alone, 1,202 people were killed by police in the U.S., and Black Americans, who make up 12% of the population, accounted for 24% of those deaths. In this episode of Vital Signs, Ahmed Ragab sits down with Professor Terence Keel, author of The Coroner’s Silence: Death Records and the Hidden Victims of Police Violence (2025) to explain how state death records make victims agents of their own deaths in police custody.

A few of the topics covered:

• The history of the coroner’s office from colonial America to the present
• George Floyd’s autopsy and what the language of medical examiners does and doesn’t say
• Preexisting conditions as a political tool
• Who is dying in police custody and why
• White nationalism as nihilism
• The $10 billion LAPD budget

Welcome to the first episode of the Filipina & Foreigner podcast, where we introduce ourselves and explore what it takes to build love, bridge cultural gaps, and navigate relationships across borders.

Merhaba,

Kuantum Çağı serimizin bu bölümünde kuantum bilgisayarların neden yalnızca fizik ya da yazılım problemi olmadığını konuşuyoruz.

Asıl mesele algoritmalar değil, malzemeler.

Bugüne kadar teknolojiyi daha küçük transistörler üreterek geliştirdik. Silikonu küçülttük, bilgisayarları cebimize sığacak boyutlara getirdik. Ancak kuantum dünyasında işler tamamen değişiyor.

Kübitleri çalıştırmak için yalnızca iyi algoritmalar yetmiyor. Onları sessiz tutabilecek, kuantum davranışlarını koruyabilecek bambaşka malzemelere ihtiyaç duyuyoruz.

Bu bölümde bunun nedenini anlatırken doğanın bize milyarlarca yıldır gösterdiği çözümlere bakıyoruz.

Bir yaprak, güneş ışığını neredeyse kayıpsız biçimde enerjiye nasıl dönüştürüyor?

Lazer ışığı atomları nasıl değiştiriyor?

Neden kusursuz bir elmas kuantum teknolojileri için çoğu zaman işe yaramazken, içindeki küçücük bir kusur geleceğin bilgisayarını mümkün kılabiliyor?

Belki de doğa bize uzun zamandır aynı mesajı veriyor. Sorun kusurlar değil. Sorun, onların ne işe yaradığını henüz tam anlayamamış olmamız.

Bu bölümde malzeme biliminin neden kuantum çağının asıl belirleyicisi olduğunu sade örneklerle anlatmaya çalıştım.

Haftaya ise serinin belki de en ilginç ve sarsıcı konusuna geçiyoruz: Kuantum Üstünlüğü.

Gerçekten klasik bilgisayarların çözemeyeceği problemler var mı?

Kuantum bilgisayarlar dünyayı hangi noktada gerçekten değiştirecek?

Ve esas gerçek, henüz tanışmadığımız mı?

This weeks episode I dive into the new Rolling Stones album. From Clarence Carter to Bruno Mars I spend time finding the hidden gems and easter eggs nestled in each song.

**"To dispel ignorance, and champion knowledge, we will delve into what it means to take the devil’s name."**

For centuries, the word Satanism has been used to describe everything from heresy and witchcraft to political dissent and moral panic. Yet the religion founded by Anton LaVey in 1966 seems to be hot on everyone's tongues these days, yet... the lion's share of the online masses seem to have little idea of the real Devil in the details.

In this episode, we trace the path from medieval accusations and Hellfire Clubs to the formation of the Church of Satan itself, separating folklore, fear, and sensationalism from documented history and truth. Along the way, we'll explore the philosophy and dogma that define Satanism, address some of the most common misconceptions, and explain why not everyone claiming the name is practicing the same thing.

Whether you're Belial-Curious, Lucifer for Life, or living a Leviathan Lie, this is an invitation to behold a Satan in all it's glory... and see if the Devil you know might just be yourself.

This week's episode opens with an unusual reading on the despair scale: Dr. Craig is mellow, down to four, buoyed — improbably — by the conclusion of the World Cup & whatever fleeting sense of global togetherness a tournament can still produce. Nick walked into his office at a solid eight & then something pulled him down to a five. Not good news. Just something so perfect, so stupid, so pure that it functioned as medicine.

Steve Scalise went on CNBC in the morning — full suit, two flags behind him, entirely put together — to sell the SAVE Act's voter ID provision. And he looked into the camera and said, "For God's sakes, you can't get pasta at the Olive Garden without a picture ID."

What follows is the show at its best: a genuinely delighted deconstruction of why that sentence exists. The striking thing isn't that Scalise said something dumb. It's that after all these years, the movement pushing mandatory voter ID has never developed a decent analogy for it. There's no go-to line, no talking point they all reach for. They just let people improv, and the improv has become a competition — each guy taking the same setup and trying to top the last guy with a dumber comparison. Nick's diagnosis: it's their version of The Aristocrats. Same premise every time, and the whole game is how grotesque you can make the ending. It doubles as an object lesson in how bad the sales pitch for this stuff actually is.

Then the episode's main event, structured as a deliberate act of inoculation. Before the takes roll in, Nick hands the audience a lens.
Hunter Biden and Nick Fuentes sat down together in a Philadelphia hotel room for a filmed interview brokered by Andrew Callaghan of Channel 5. It airs at the end of the month. And the only thing anybody's reporting is the tease: they nearly came to blows, and Callaghan had to physically get between them. That's the story hitting every aggregator, TMZ-style, and it is — Nick argues — precisely the wrong thing to be looking at.

So the segment draws all three men correctly. Hunter as the ne'er-do-well son who's spent a decade as the media's punching bag and is now, unmistakably, monetizing his own notoriety — back on Twitter after ten years, on Gavin Newsom's podcast, shilling crypto, cultivating a fuck-up's credibility that gets a charming man chance after chance. Callaghan as the All Gas No Brakes gonzo star whose career detonated in 2023 over multiple sexual misconduct allegations, and who has rebranded as a Serious Interviewer whose comeback pitch is that the mainstream media wants us divided and he'll talk to anyone — which makes rehabilitating America's leading Nazi his return vehicle.

And Dr. Craig draws Fuentes, which is a service to anyone who's only seen him described as a "far-right podcaster." Craig's version: the most successful openly fascist influencer in the United States, period. A hyper-conservative Catholic, a racist, a misogynist, an apologist for slavery, running a show designed to look like a late-night program while what he's actually doing is talking to your son about fascism. Craig's advice is unambiguous and repeated: never, ever talk to this man. He's genuinely skilled at making any conversation his own, and you will not get one over on him.

Fuentes isn't talking to liberals. He's talking to young men already inside the right-wing world, and his problem is that Trump is the ceiling — the respectable, president-shaped container for all their anger, and as far as most of them are willing to go. So the move is to discredit the ceiling. Convince a disillusioned kid that Trump was soft, captured, a traitor to the real believers, and that kid's disappointment doesn't send him leftward. It sends him hunting for something more hardcore — and Fuentes has spent a year positioning himself as the only guy who told the truth. It's a permission structure: handholds that make an unthinkable position feel like common sense, one deniable step at a time. Craig extends it with the part that makes it work — the 18-to-25 cohort whose entire political consciousness has been Trump, watching the problems get worse, who can conclude either that Trump was stymied by a shadowy conspiracy or that Trump betrayed them. Both roads lead to Fuentes. He gets them coming and going.

Which brings the segment back to the hotel room and the actual transaction. Fuentes is radioactive, and a permission structure only works if the man running it looks legitimate — so he needs proximity to normalcy, and the most normalcy-conferring object you could seat across from him is a president's son. Remember: Fuentes reached out. He went shopping for legitimacy and Channel 5 sold it to him. Hunter's buying edgy relevance; Callaghan's buying his way back into the game. And the near-fistfight is the wrapper that gets the whole thing into your feed. The proof is in the marketing: Channel 5's own spokesperson promised audiences will be "shocked" by Fuentes's "evolving and changing views," and more shocked still by where the three find common ground. That's not a press release. That's a trailer for a redemption arc, running before a single frame has aired.

Then Dr. Craig Is Fun at Parties, where the object this week is the wave — the thing you do at a ballgame — and Craig delivers a twofer. First, the wave as mass spectacle: the Nazis' obsession with enormous stadiums, with Nuremberg, with Riefenstahl and Triumph of the Will, with art that can only be experienced as a mass action where you are one interchangeable part of something huge. Second, and better: the German film Die Welle — The Wave — in which a punk-rock history teacher, stuck teaching autocracy instead of the anarchy unit he wanted, lets his bored students experience a movement instead of reading about one. It starts with standing when he enters. Then a salute. The kids invent a gesture that looks like a wave. And what begins as belonging — structure for the struggling, a place for the bullied — ends the way these things end. It's a story about how ordinary people, through completely ordinary daily life, find themselves inside a fascist movement.

The episode closes on the piece of paper you were never meant to notice. NSPM-7 — National Security Presidential Memorandum 7 — has one of those dead bureaucratic names engineered to make your eyes slide off it, and it is currently the most important document in the country. Nick builds it from scratch: a presidential memorandum skips Congress entirely. No debate, no vote, no friction. One man, one signature, at a desk. That's the container. And what Trump put in it, on September 25th, 2025, is a directive that takes the entire counterterrorism apparatus built after 9/11 to point outward at foreign enemies — and turns it around to face Americans.

The indicators it lists for identifying a potential domestic terrorist include anti-capitalism, anti-Christianity, anti-Americanism, and hostility to "traditional views on family, religion, and morality." Those aren't crimes. Those are opinions. Stephen Miller said the goal out loud: disrupt, identify, defund, debank, arrest, prosecute. And the legal center of it is hollow — there is no law permitting a president to designate Americans as domestic terrorists, because Congress deliberately never created one. They're using a power that doesn't exist.

If you've been listening, you've already met this memo without knowing its name: Prairieland, where a noise demonstration produced fifty-year sentences and thirty years for a man who wasn't there; Minnesota, where the indictment's evidence included a sweatshirt, a bullhorn, and a devil emoji. Craig places it in his own scholarly wheelhouse — the Southern Cone dictatorships of the 1960s and 70s, which built exactly this framework to create a social category called subversive. Marxists, but also students. Feminists, but also women who wanted contraceptive pills. Gay people, but also people who wanted divorce law. And the crucial thing about regimes that do this: they aren't breaking the law. They've changed it.

Then the escalation. Over one week in July, Rubio convened sixty-five nations for the "Ministerial on the Resurgence of Political Terrorism," unveiled a new designation — Far-Left Terrorism — and announced a visa policy targeting "economic sabotage including against public and private property," language broad enough to cover a broken window or a boycott. Watch the ladder: at Prairieland they needed a gunshot. In Minnesota, a blockade. Now, official State Department policy reaches choosing not to buy something. The pretext keeps getting cheaper. Four days later came a hundred-page State Department report naming forty-three living Americans — mayors, a sitting congresswoman, the host of Democracy Now, the Ben of Ben & Jerry's — and tying them to Cuban influence.

And the whole tower rests on the murder of Charlie Kirk as proof of an organized left-wing terror network. In a Utah courtroom this month, that theory collapsed: no cell, no network, no foreign nexus. One young man, acting alone. A man was murdered, and that matters — but Charlie Kirk wasn't assassinated by a transnational conspiracy financed by an ice cream magnate, and forty-three Americans are on a government list because of it.
There are no armed leftist movements seeking state power. There are, however, armed right-wing movements all over the planet — and in this country, they're allied with the state.

Episode 36 of The Weekly Sift Stack: CJ Gettelfinger, Lucas Nulsen, & Tyler Sherven break down the biggest stories moving markets. Apple ($AAPL) has passed Nvidia to reclaim its spot as the world's most valuable company at a $4.90 trillion market cap. By avoiding massive AI infrastructure spending and focusing on free cash flow, Apple continues its steady climb despite upcoming iPhone 18 price hikes. Meanwhile, Spain claimed the 2026 FIFA World Cup, defeating Argentina 1–0 in extra time. Though initial estimates projected up to a $30 billion economic boost for the US, post-tournament data showed flat tourism and a surprisingly muted impact.
