Not a "man bites dog" story, but an even more ancient piece of news: "dog bites man."

If you've heard of Syed, it's from the podcast "Serial," which kick-started the ... trend? genre? industry? ... of longform podcasting. But is it good journalism? After "Serial" premiered in 2014, questions arose about its accuracy; "Serial" creator Sarah Koenig's reporting focused on aspects of the story that made Syed look guilty (or just made the story look better) and ignored some crucial evidence that argued for his innocence. In the years since, there's been a lot...2022-09-2650 minSacred Sons PodcastSacred Sons PodcastA Time Of Reckoning with Stephen Jenkinson - SSP 107Stephen Jenkinson, MTS, MSW is an activist, teacher, author, and farmer.

Era: The Death of the Bobcats (2010-2016). Season/Game: 2010-11, Charlotte Bobcats vs Phoenix SunsThe 2010-11 Charlotte Bobcats season was full of promise off a playoff appearance. The team finally had some talent. Stephen Jackson was a pure scorer with attitude. Gerald Wallace was an All-Star caliber defensive stopper and rim runner. Boris Diaw was motivated and clear-eyed about his role. We look at a game before it all went disastrously wrong for Larry Brown and the team. David A. Arnott, founder of Rufus On Fire gives us more insight into what Stephen Jackson...2022-08-0456 minJournosJournosDefacing the Mona Lisa and DALL•E’s Horrifying Netherworld of AI-Driven ArtWhat makes life worth living? What kind of cake does the Mona Lisa prefer? What does a chair made of avocados look like?  Art, in its many forms, seeks to answer all of the above. And for years, humans have enjoyed a near monopoly on creating it. But things are changing — and fast. Here, we take a look at people, our penchant for environmental destruction, and our even stronger proclivity for creating technology that may one day wipe us from the face of the earth — but not before creating next year’s fall lineup on Netflix.  First...2022-07-2933 minJournosJournosWhat Happens in Your Face, Stays in Your FaceProving that all the good science has already been found out and all that's left is the weird, gross stuff, Brandon & Stephen return from hiatus to tackle the recent discovery of a mite that lives on our face, where it has sex, and where it's gotten so good at having sex on our face that it doesn't know how to live independently anymore. At a time when even humans have a hard time believing in other humans, it's somewhat heartwarming to know these little guys are going all-in on our species.

Science has no definitive answers, but the media — from Business Insider to The New York Times to BroBible — will happily cover the confusion. So begins an exploration into pareidolia, that cognitive quirk where we see faces in all kinds of stuff, and "find" patterns of meaning in just about everything else. In this episode, Brandon & Stephen ask whether pareidolia applies to how we read (and produce) the news, too. Is t...2022-05-2025 minNBA Action With JacksonNBA Action With JacksonDetailing Mavs/Suns (Featuring Stephen Garner - @StayTrueSDot3)Guest: Stephen Garner (@StayTrueSDot3) Jackson and Stephen tackle Mavericks/Suns through a Phoenix lens.

(You may have heard.) The analysis, hand-wringing, and general worrywart-ery about how bad it might be for media has been great for media, giving journalists and pundits lots to fill up pages and airtime. And to tweet about, of course. It's a lot to take in, but for us, it helps to think about the whole thing as a visit to a mall in a state of flux. What will happen to the sunglasses kiosks? Or the fountain where everyone chit-chats? And will an attempted government overthrow begin in the Orange Julius? ...2022-05-0231 minJournosJournosCan We Still Trust Science When it’s Calling Black Holes ”Hairy”?Some conflict in this episode: Brandon wants to talk about a new study that suggests black holes have quantum "hair" and Stephen wants to at least take a moment to discuss why the great minds behind the science didn't think a little harder about the branding of their hypothesis. Chortling aside, the hairy black hole story is interesting to us for a few reasons. One is that, if correct, the hypothesis would resolve a contradiction at the heart of modern science — which involves whether or not anything can really escape the gravity of a black hole. ...2022-04-0930 minSacred Sons PodcastSacred Sons PodcastSSP 89 - Invocation of an Elder with Stephen JenkinsonStephen Jenkinson, MTS, MSW is an activist, teacher, author, and farmer.
