Watch this clip.

Professors will recognize this kid as the student who didn't do the reading but still has very strong opinions about how it's all "bullshit," except this time he's not the callow student who's going to fail your course, he's the reviewer who's going to cancel your grant.

Show Title:  Repentance and Repair with Rabbi Danya Ruttenberg

Tonight on The God Squad, Dillon Naber Cruz and Desimber Rose sit down with Rabbi Danya Ruttenberg, the acclaimed Jewish scholar and author of On Repentance and Repair: Making Amends in an Unapologetic World. In a time when public apologies are often little more than PR damage control, Rabbi Ruttenberg brings ancient Jewish wisdom to a modern crisis of accountability.

Drawing from the teachings of the medieval philosopher Maimonides, Rabbi Ruttenberg explains what real repentance actually requiresβ€”truth-telling, repair of harm, and meaningful transformationβ€”not just empty words. Together, Dillon and Desimber explore how these principles apply not only to personal relationships but also to public life, politics, institutions, and faith communities.

If you’ve ever wondered what genuine accountability looks like in a culture that often avoids it, this conversation offers both challenge and hope.

πŸ“… Live Tonight – 8PM EST
🎧 Available tomorrow wherever you get your podcasts

The Trump administration could really restore confidence by getting the entire Cabinet to ride a tanker through the Straits of Hormuz to show everyone how safe and easy it is now.

They could bring along a lot of MAGA influencers and Fox News hosts to broadcast it all live!

Every single oil executive in the entire world must be having the same slow, horrible realization that led Rex Tillerson to eventually snap and call Trump a "fucking moron".

Council approves settlement related to 2016 Rideau St. sinkhole City councillors have approved a settlement with insurers over the June 2016 sinkhole that swallowed a van on Rideau Street and led to delays in Stage 1 LRT construction.

And us the public won't know just for how little they settled for. Or in other words, how much was the taxpayer on the hook.

P3 value is offloading the risk to the private side, to which we pay handsomely for. Folding like a cheap suit, negates that value.

Me holding up the book β€œThe Working Class and Politics in Canada” Edited by Jacob Robbins-Kanter, Royce Koop, and Daniel Troup

Really good collection of academic studies in here about how the working class has systematically been excluded from electoral politics in Canada. The NDP, especially, is getting a good thrashing for its inability to actually tap into those concerns in a substantially transformative manner.

This is false.

Jamal Harrison Bryant, a Megachurch pastor, has said the boycott is over. He is not leaders, plural. He and his church were not the ones to start the calls for boycott.

Nekima Levy Armstrong, who founded the Racial Justice Network, and other Minnesota civil rights activists were.

bomber harris... 13. to 15. February 1945 - 25,000 civilians died - not classified as a war crime primarily because no international treaty specifically prohibited aerial bombardment of civilians at the time - oh, how far we have come in 2026
