Everything Everywhere Daily - Mount Athos (Encore)

In northern Greece, lying off the larger Chalkidiki peninsula is a place that is unique on planet Earth. 

It only has a population of about 2,400 people scattered across 20 settlements and some random people living by themselves.  

What makes this area unique is that all 2,400 of its citizens are monks and all are men….and women are not allowed to even enter. 

Learn more about the Monastic Republic of Mount Athos on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

The Daily Signal - INTERVIEW | Mark Morgan on Why Biden Administration ‘Intentionally Unsecured’ Southern Border

The Biden administration "intentionally unsecured" the southern border because “they see a perceived political benefit from open borders,” according to Mark Morgan, former acting commissioner of U.S. Customs and Border Protection. 


Morgan, now a visiting fellow in The Heritage Foundation’s Border Security and Immigration Center, says President Joe Biden has what he needs to secure the border. (The Daily Signal is Heritage's multimedia news organization.)


Biden just needs to “reach up on the shelf and take off the Trump-era border security plan that we had, dust it off, and implement it,” Morgan argues.


With the uncertain future of Title 42, a public health measure that allowed the Border Patrol to quickly expel illegal aliens during the COVID-19 pandemic, Morgan says, the Biden administration must stop “rewarding illegal immigration” and move to “secure our borders.” 


Morgan joins “The Daily Signal Podcast” to explain why the Biden administration has misused Title 42 and what will happen to America if the president doesn't take strong action to secure the border

What Next | Daily News and Analysis - 2022 Retrospective | How Soccer’s Best Women Finally Got Paid

This week we look back on some of our favorite stories from a year that had us asking—sometimes with excitement and sometimes with exasperation—"What Next”? This episode originally aired June 1.

 

If you want to understand the way inequality is baked into the systems and structures all around us, examining the pay equity issue in U.S. soccer is a pretty good place to start. But after a six-year battle, the U.S. Women’s National Team struck an agreement with U.S. Soccer, ensuring equal pay for equal work for the men’s and women’s teams — another victory for a team that doesn’t take no for an answer.

 

Guest: Christina Cauterucci, senior writer at Slate and a former middle school soccer star.

Amarica's Constitution - More on Moore – The Oral Argument, Continued

The oral argument in Moore v. Harper lasted approximately three hours.  In our last podcast, we began an analysis by tracing some of the advocates’ arguments and justices’ responses.  This time, we go to the key questions that lay at the basis of all the back and forth.  We answer them, but more than that, we look at their underpinnings and construct a framework in which, we believe, all elements of the case fit together.  For your trouble, audience, you will receive a master class in the law of “Fed Courts,” you will hear excerpts from a debate with Professor Amar, and even hear from the dictator of San Marcos.

Short Wave - Brain Scientists Are Tripping Out Over Psychedelics

Psychedelic drugs – like LSD, salvia, ayahuasca, Ibogaine, MDMA (AKA ecstasy), or psilocybin (AKA 'magic mushrooms' or 'shrooms') – are experiencing a resurgence of interest in their potential medical benefits.

At the Neuroscience 2022 meeting held by the Society of Neuroscience, the appetite for psychedelic research permeated the sessions, discussions, and even after-hours barroom talk — drawing in researchers, neuroscientists, companies, reporters, and advocates alike.

"In the last couple of years there has been a lot of excitement in psychedelics. I think it started first in the popular media." says Alex Kwan, associate professor at Cornell University. "Neuroscience, actually, I think took another year or two to catch on."

Today on the show, host Aaron Scott and NPR's brain correspondent Jon Hamilton chat psychedelic drugs — whether this renewed interest will represent incremental or revolutionary changes in the fields of medicine, psychology, and neuroscience.

NPR's Book of the Day - In ‘Grocery Shopping With My Mother,’ a son becomes a caretaker

Author Kevin Powell grew up without much physical affection. He says the first time someone tried to hug him was in college; it felt like a foreign concept to him. In his new book of poetry, Grocery Shopping With My Mother, Powell examines his relationship with the single mother who raised him – the one he now cares for in her older age. He tells NPR's Scott Simon that writing becomes a way to heal and forgive, even if it means confronting a whole lot of hurt.
