I absolutely loved talking to Jason about this - "ecstatic truth" is a phrase that will stay with me forever.

Thanks so much to @samdingman @AyanaTWriter for having me on @kjzzphoenix to talk about the growing movement of doctors pushing hospitals to end automatic drug testing and reporting of pregnant patients and newborns. Please listen and share: kjzz.org/the-show/2025-…

@j6patriotnate Hi Nate - we spoke last month at AmericaFest in Phoenix. I'd love to chat with you again post-pardon if you're up for it. My email is sdingman@kjzz.org if you're interested - thanks!

Spoke with @samdingman about the mystery, horror, and sweetness of @DAVID_LYNCH this morning on @kjzzphoenix. You can listen here. kjzz.org/the-show/2025-…

@ramenshopradio Amen - all true!!

@samdingman Completely. If you remove the soul, the body, the physicality of hearing and responding, what is left? It is, however, a very potent critique of most podcasts.

Can we stop with the posts about how #NotebookLM makes “podcasts?” It doesn’t. It makes a weird simulacrum of disembodied voices with no personality or point of view mimicking the rhythms of human speech. If that’s all you think a podcast is, you’ve never listened to a good one.

@ramenshopradio right?!

@samdingman 100%

@jonwalczak @kjzzphoenix Thanks for joining us Jon!

In a year when party allegiances are slipping and sliding all over the place, it was enlightening to talk about the tricky politics of housing reform with @JerusalemDemsas this week kjzz.org/the-show/2024-…

@ByVicCalderon Thanks for sharing this, Victor!

What is journalism? Award-winning reporter's podcast looks for new mission statement Brian Reed, creator of S-Town, was sued and legally obligated to prove that the podcast qualified as journalism. kjzz.org/the-show/2024-…

Grateful for the opportunity to talk to Brian about the profound questions facing journalism, and his desire to lean into them on #QuestionEverything (from @PlacementTheory)

I remember listening to an Orioles game on the radio before dinner in 1993 - I was about 9 years old… I heard Fred Manfra say in his baritone voice “the Orioles have been mathematically eliminated.” Embarrassingly I started crying at the dinner table. 30+ years later the perspective is entirely different. But the ending hurts. It always hurts. It’s supposed to hurt. That’s what fandom is… that’s the beauty of it. I think of the other great line in “A League of their Own” “It's supposed to be hard. If it wasn't hard, everyone would do it. The hard... is what makes it great.”
