The Right to Drink - F*ck True, We Swear On Our Brews
Arrogant Bastard. Raging Bitch. Big Red Coq. Edgy and offensive beer labels are everywhere. They’ve become a part of the craft beer movement. They are accompanied by boundary-pushing illustrations and drawings, too. But sometimes the government says: No way. Welcome to the litigious world of swear words, suds, and free speech.

Code Story: Insights from Startup Tech Leaders - S3 E11: Mike Kadin, RedCircle
Mike Kadin is a family man, having been married for 7 years with a 2 year old (in the No phase). He studied electrical engineering, specifically chip design and computer architecture, obtaining a dual degree in EE and education. He is a musician, singing in acapella groups, playing the drums, piano, guitar - and is an polished beat boxer, having been practicing regularly over the years. Mike started his career as a high school physics and math teacher. During this time, he learned a lot about managing a bunch of kids in a class, and catering to different types of personalities. At this time, he found. himself trying to find a way to write code to make his classroom work better.
In the winter of 2017, Mike was working at Uber, leading the communication platform team. As the company grew bigger, he found himself longing to be in a smaller, more tight knit team, along with being aligned to a long term vision for positive impact. At the same time, he started hacking on a side project on nights and weekends, learning the Go programming language, and creating a unique way to stitch together podcast episodes. He found his passion not only for the solution he was building, but for making an impact in the podcasting industry - for podcasters and marketers. He went on to commit to building a marketplace to easily connect the two, creating a win-win scenario for both.

The Intelligence from The Economist - No-tax-and-spend policy: Trump’s tax returns
Just ahead of the first presidential debate, a trove of tax documents suggests the president has some staggeringly loss-making businesses and a staggering amount of debt coming due. We examine China’s pledge to become carbon-neutral by 2060 and what it will have to do to get there. And why a Swiss referendum campaign involved a giant game of pick-up-sticks.

NBN Book of the Day - Laura Briggs, “Taking Children: A History of American Terror” (U California Press 2020)
Laura Briggs’s Taking Children: A History of American Terror (University of California Press 2020) is a forceful and captivating book that readers won’t be able to put down, and that listeners from all sort of backgrounds will definitely want to hear more about. Weaving together histories of Black communities (in the US and the Americas more broadly), Native Americans, and multiple Latin American countries, Briggs tells us how taking of children has been used as a strategy to terrorize communities that demand social justice and change. This book, timely as no other, asks readers to question the narrative that portrays taking children as something that is done in the benefit of the child, and instead to see it as a strategy that seeks to control and dominate communities that are deem dangerous to the social order. As Prof. Briggs tells us by the end of the interview, in this summer of racial reckoning the BLM movement has asked to eliminate the foster care system for this has been another vehicle for the policing and criminalization of African American communities in the United States. This demand has everything to do with the long history of talking children that is so thoroughly documented in this book.
Yet this is not only a “History of American Terror” as the title suggests, it is also a history about how individuals, families, communities and organizations have resisted this terrorizing strategy. Make no mistake: this is not a story with a happy ending, still, it is one that teaches us that in our past lies both the ghostly hauntings that explain why taking children has been a strategy used for terror, but also why therein we can find the seeds to resistance and transformation. Definitely a must for these troubling and convoluted times.
Bonus: Prof. Briggs’s son makes a short but hilarious appearance in our conversation. We have decided not to delete this portion of the interview because it demonstrates one of Prof. Briggs main scholarly arguments: the distinction between the private and public is illusory. As with many other topics, the COVID-19 pandemic has only rendered visible the realities that were already there.
