  • How Can History Help if we Don't Know History (History is Here to Help)

    An Indictment of History Education in America.  The hosts for this show are Jay Fidell and Peter Hoffenberg.  


    Spanish Philosopher George Santayana famously said 'those who do not learn history are doomed to repeat it.'  Was he right?  Does history repeat itself or does it just rhyme.  Are American students learning history or have history and social studies been abandoned in our schools and in our country, for how long, and to what effect?

  • State Financial Condition Still Dismal (Talking Tax)

    'F' from Truth in Accounting.org.  The hosts for this show are Jay Fidell and Tom Yamachika.  


    About one year ago, the nonprofit Truth in Accounting put out a report called 'Financial State of the States 2021.'  That report compared published financial information from all of the states for fiscal year 2020, graded all of the states, and ranked them based on fiscal health.

    Hawaii received – you guessed it – an 'F.' The report compared assets with bills, and the shortfall came to about $37,000 per taxpayer.

    What can we as a state do to pull ourself out of this mess?

  • Our Rule of Law Damaged, Indictments Delayed (American Issues Take One)

    Trump Indictments on Hold for Mid-Terms.  The hosts for this show are Tim Apicella and Jay Fidell.  The guests are Cynthia Lee Sinclair and Vicky Cayetano.  


    There has been a lot of discussion and hand wringing about what might happen if the former president of the United States is indicted for federal or state crimes. It's true it has never been done before. However, it happened against a sitting vice president in the summer of 1973. Spiro T. Agnew was charged and convicted of federal tax evasion. He resigned in shame and Gerald Ford became the 40th vice president in 1974. The DOJ was healthy then, and staff was not infected with the Trump loyalty virus.

    Is Trump above the law? Will he get a pass or be indicted by the attorney general for crimes pertaining to taking classified documents, his role in the Jan 6 attack on the Capital, his pressure to influence Georgia's secretary of state seeking 11,780 votes, or financial crimes in NYC? Is an indictment forthcoming? Only our general attorney knows for sure.

  • How Culture Impacts Women in Esports (The Wide World of Esports)

    Joining the Industry and Rising to the Top.  The host for this show is Tom Leonard.  The guests are Eniola Edun and Chantal-Denise Ortega.  


    More than a discussion about women in gaming and esports, this is a conversation about how culture impacts women in the industry.

    The role of women in society differs from location, culture, and history. These factors influence the ability of women to join the gaming and esports industries, and how they can successfully rise to the very top levels of leadership.

    Listen to two accomplished female entrepreneurs who have made an impact in the wide world of esports, spanning from Africa, Southeast Asia, China, and to the US.
