NBN Book of the Day - Pete Millwood, “Improbable Diplomats: How Ping-Pong Players, Musicians, and Scientists Remade US-China Relations” (Cambridge UP, 2022)

In 1971, Americans made two historic visits to China that would transform relations between the two countries. One was by US official Henry Kissinger; the other, earlier, visit was by the US table tennis team. Historians have mulled over the transcripts of Kissinger's negotiations with Chinese leaders. However, they have overlooked how, alongside these diplomatic talks, a rich program of travel and exchange had begun with ping-pong diplomacy. 

Improbable Diplomats: How Ping-Pong Players, Musicians, and Scientists Remade US-China Relations (Cambridge UP, 2022) reveals how a diverse cast of Chinese and Americans – athletes and physicists, performing artists and seismologists – played a critical, but to date overlooked, role in remaking US-China relations. Based on new sources from more than a dozen archives in China and the United States, Pete Millwood argues that the significance of cultural and scientific exchanges went beyond reacquainting the Chinese and American people after two decades of minimal contact; exchanges also powerfully influenced Sino-American diplomatic relations and helped transform post-Mao China.

Grant Golub is an Ernest May Fellow in History and Policy at the Harvard Kennedy School and a PhD candidate in the Department of International History at the London School of Economics and Political Science. His research focuses on the politics of American grand strategy during World War II.

The Goods from the Woods - Episode #367 – “Computer Love” with Rob Haze

In this episode, Rivers and Sam are hangin' out at Disgraceland studios with one of our all-time favorite guests: comedian Rob Haze! We start this one off by tempting fate and diabetes by testing out Panera Bread's "Charged Lemonade" which contains enough caffeine and sugar to send a rocket to the moon. We also talk about Microsoft's recently Bing A.I. chatbot also known as "Sydney" which seems to have plans to ruin the marriages of tech journalists and, maybe, world domination as well. We've got our Top 3 lists of 90s one hit wonders and weirdest stand-up gigs. Jimi Hendrix's "Purple Haze" is our JAM OF THE WEEK. This episode is one for the ages assuming "Sydney" doesn't find out about it and have us all deleted. Listen in now, won't you?  Find Rob on all forms of social media @RobHaze and go see him LIVE at Saturn in Birmingham, Alabama on March 2, 2023.  Follow the show on Twitter @TheGoodsPod.  Rivers is @RiversLangley  Sam is @SlamHarter  Carter is @Carter_Glascock Subscribe on Patreon for HOURS of bonus content! http://patreon.com/TheGoodsPod Pick up a Goods from the Woods t-shirt at: http://prowrestlingtees.com/TheGoodsPod

The Daily Signal - INTERVIEW | How the Woke Agenda Unleashed Havoc in the Classroom, Teacher Daniel Buck Explains

Children are always going to misbehave, teacher Daniel Buck says, and that’s why discipline is needed in the classroom.


"I think the idea that we're going to solve misbehavior is kind of Utopian," Buck says, adding that is "what the progressive idea is."


"If we just get the system right, then kids are going to behave. And that's never going to happen," he says. Instead, Buck advocates for a strong disciplinary "system in place that anticipates and responds to misbehavior."


The lack of such discipline in the classroom is leading some teachers to resign and harming students' ability to learn, says Buck, the author of “What Is Wrong With Our Schools?: The Ideology Impoverishing Education in America and How We Can Do Better for Our Students." The book was published in December.


Buck joins "The Daily Signal Podcast" to explain how the agenda of the woke Left has led to a lack of discipline in American classrooms, and why a restoration of discipline would improve learning outcomes for students.
