Student journalists across this country have been churning out some of the best journalism these last couple years Thinking of the radio crew covering the encampments in New York, UCLA crew doing the same, not to mention groundbreaking investigation after investigation Brilliant, the best of us

if you're a 99% invisible subscriber you can listen to my episode in the "100 objects that made america" series today. it's a history of the sobriety chip, AA and its connection to the failures of prohibition and americans' love of a religion, and figuring out my own california sobriety :-)

So thoughtful of your parents to put together their very own fall tv preview! Read it here: www.newyorker.com/humor/shouts...
Shouts & Murmurs
Your Parents’ Fall TV Preview
By Josh Gondelman
Published 9/17/2026

A photo of an older white couple sitting on a couch watching tv.“North of South of the Border” on Paramount+

Welcome to El Paso, where men are men and women are cast mostly in nonspeaking roles. Taylor Sheridan’s latest drama stars Mel Gibson as a Border Patrol agent who feels conflicted about his work because his bosses won’t let him arbitrarily deport Jews and Greek people. Sheridan’s shows currently take up so much of Paramount’s programming that there isn’t enough time in the day to air “North of South of the Border” as its own hour-long drama. It appears exclusively in snippets on television sets that characters are watching within the show “Landman,” which your parents refer to as “Yellowstone.”“Tendershire Farms” (Season 18) on BritBox
Maude Tendershire (Olivia Gingerbottom) works as the caretaker for her family’s historic chamomile farm. That’s about it. The show is so cozy and soothing that the actors frequently fell asleep during takes and can be spotted snoozing in the background. This season, low-jinx ensue after Lord Gilderoy (Hankleton Dunderthorpe III) stops by for a visit, but he’s already eaten so he doesn’t stay for tea. A lamb wanders off but soon returns. And for one entire episode, a gentle breeze rustles the branches of a weeping willow tree as an inaudible conversation takes place nearby.“Dr. Shaft, M.D.” on Fox
An underground facility known as Drive Shaft, Maryland, is home to the Washington, D.C. metro area’s most cutthroat drag-racing scene—and there’s a new driver tearing up the quarter-mile track. Other gearheads know him as Smooth J., but at his day job, at the Foggy Bottom Urology Clinic, Jason Shafterton goes by Dr. Shaft. Will his addiction to fast driving undermine his commitment to providing affordable penile health care to residents of our nation’s capital? Only time will tell. Your parents really aren’t that interested in the racing scenes or, frankly, the medical stuff. But your mom refuses to miss an episode because the show stars Daveed Diggs from the original cast of “Hamilton.”

@jamieloftus.bsky.social, woman that you are. I admit I doubted how interested I would be in a book about hot dogs, but goddamn. Raw Dog is fantastic. Your narration of the audiobook makes it even better. I am now on the hunt for the most passable vegan dogs, so far Field Roast is the best.

today on webworm, a guest essay from aaron hendry about the unhoused crisis in aotearoa, new zealand - and how we can help. please RT: www.webworm.co/unhoused/
In the period between the end of July and early August this year, three people died after sleeping rough outside during the harshest period of our winter. A few days ago a fourth person, believed to be rough sleeping, was found dead. This time, in a cruel and dark twist of irony, the person died sleeping rough outside the office of the Minister of Justice, Paul Goldsmith. 

The same minister who has been the champion of legislation designed to criminalize homelessness and force unhoused people away from our city centres and into the unseen suburbs. Suburbs like Auckland’s Epsom, where Goldsmith has his office, and where this person died. Out of sight and out of mind.

Instead of being outraged – instead of this story leading headlines across the country and prompting a nation-wide cry for change – the response from our media has been largely muted. Outlets gave a nod to this tragedy, but largely decided to focus on other things. To me, it’s an indication of how desensitized we’ve become to the suffering of our fellow Kiwis.

It’s infuriating. Because this doesn’t need to be happening in New Zealand.

People don’t have to sleep outside.

People don’t have to die.
