How Chicago elects a mayor, and why a winner may take weeks
"Chicago was holding an election today for mayor, but it will likely take weeks and a runoff election before a winner is declared. 9 candidates are competing for a chance to be Chicago's next mayor. That includes current mayor Lori Lightfoot seeking her second term to win the office outright a candidate needs to receive more than 50% of the vote. That's unlikely with such a large field, so the race is expected to go to an April 4th runoff between the top two vote getters. The election is officially nonpartisan and has not considered or called a primary, though all the candidates call themselves Democrats. In addition to lightfoot candidates are U.S. rep Jesus Chewy Garcia, former school CEO Paul valles, Cook County commissioner Brandon Johnson, businessman Willie Wilson, state rep cam Buckner, activist Jamal Greene and city council members Sophia king and roderick Sawyer.

"We are so bloody grateful to all of you who have supported us and this book pre ordering means so bloody much to us and we can't wait to be with you for that magnificent October 11th event and evening truly not to be missed. Thank you. Thank you, thank you, godspeed and courage. So here we are. World Cup 2023 is on the horizon. A lot of people, people that you, we've learned, do not listen to pundits and players alike have been talking about the youth of this current U.S. team. And that classic paradox of you can't get tournament experience without going into tournaments inexperience, how do you process that on the national team or else where that lack of experience, or is that kind of the very challenge, which is driving you in this moment? Yeah, I mean, I think that is one of the biggest challenges because it's true. This national team is young. There's a lot of us who don't have experience in big tournaments where a World Cup or an Olympics are on the line. So I think we need that time together. We need the experience together. The national teams in the past that have been as good as they are. It's because they have had time together. They built those relationships. They have the chemistry on and off the field. Everything that they do flows and it's because they've had the time and have the tournaments and the games to build that. So I think with this younger team, it will take time. But I think once it starts clicking and I think it already started has started to do that a little bit. It's going to be so fun. And I just can't wait. I think a lot of people, you know, are maybe doubting the national team right now because it is young and it may not look like what it has always looked like, but I think it's a work in progress. And it takes time to build a team that's the best in the world. And we want to continue that legacy because that's what this team has always been. And it's a lot of pressure, but it's exciting and something that I know all the younger players are super excited to be a part of. Sophia Smith, it has been an absolute delight to be able to listen to you and last question before we close for the week. You said at top of the interview, the year ultimate goal was to be the best in the world, which God, it's an incredible ambition even to articulate. So let me ask you, what does that look like to you? Is it a World Cup Golden Boot? Is it the Ballon d'Or? Is it just a knowledge that you can be any defender anywhere in the world in a one on one when you close your eyes? And you think about being the best in the world, once you see? I mean, I see all those things. I try not to care too much about any type of award because those happen and they don't. I think I just see myself at the end of my career having done what no one else has done. And just being a player that's really fun to watch. And honestly, I think, while that is my biggest goal, I think putting it in perspective, my goal is to be the best player that I know I can be. And if that's the best in the world, that's awesome and amazing, but if that's just being Sophia Smith, that's all I'll be happy either way. God, to be the best Sophia Smith that you can be. It is a joy, really, a wonder to speak to you. Sophia Smith, godspeed. Thank you. Sophia Smith, what a human being. And that, that is it for this week, only one NWSL game this weekend.

The Left Wants to Remove Your Right to Raise Your Children
"Been running for a very long time that left wing jurisdictions are going to make it unbelievably difficult to raise your children. That there will come a point where all your kid has to do is mention, for example, that they disagree with you about same sex marriage or about transgenderism. And the process will begin, whereby you're removed from your child. It's going to make it impossible for religious parents to send their kids to religious day school. It's going to be impossible for parents to raise their kids in traditional way. Even in non traditional ways, as it turns out, there's an amazing story by Kelsey bollard from a friend of the program over at the independent women's forum that is well worthy of coverage because this is the direction in which the left would like to see the country move. They've already done this in places like Canada where they've made it illegal for you to tell your boy that he is in fact a boy if your boy says that he is a girl. So here's Kelsey reporting quote Jeanette Cooper never imagined she'd lose custody of her child. The 44 year old lifelong educator always considered herself a loving and responsible mother to her daughter, Sophia. But when at age 12, if he has suddenly claimed to be transgender, Jeanette was skeptical. Sophia had never exhibited signs of gender dysphoria. In fact, Sophia exhibited many more traditionally feminine behaviors and preferences than Jeanette ever had. To Jeanette, it didn't make sense. But Sophia insisted, not only she was trans, but that she was unsafe around Jeanette. What followed was an almost kafkaesque series of court proceedings and therapy sessions in which Jeanette's ex-husband's lawyers therapists and other individuals and institutions, supposedly concerned with Sofia's best interests, worked to erode Jeanne's most basic parenting rights, nearly three years later, Jeanette can't even visit the daughter she loves. She lives less than ten minutes away, but can only communicate with Sofia by the mail. All because she says Sophia is a girl. So what exactly is the story here? Well, it turns out that Jeanette is not exactly a traditional Christian mom. A Jeanette shaves half her hair, but not her legs, often doesn't wear bras, purchases clothing, regardless of whether they're in the men's or women's department. She jokes that if you subscribe to traditional gender stereotypes, she's the one people would think his trans. But that's precisely how Jeanette raised her daughter outside the confines of traditional sex stereotypes, which mistake number one. But she says, quote, I don't think there are any bounds on what it means to be a female other than to exist in a female body. There's nothing I have to do to become female. I simply am. Okay, well, this happens to be biologically accurate. She considers herself a radical feminist as Jeanette. She has voted Democrat in every election since she was 18. When addressing the discrepancy between her political beliefs and her views on sex and gender ideology, she has said, quote, the difference between libertarianism and anarchy is a fine line.

"I need a following like asthma latte and like gary v and like so feel arena. I need a following. So i'm going to start a podcast and remember that. The podcast is one of the major tools that help shoe to be able to gain that audience that you want in the first place my instagram. For example think i had a hundred and twenty or one hundred fifty followers before i started my podcast. And now there's like seven thousand followers on my podcast. I used to get one or two likes on post and now i think i'm getting like five hundred to a thousand likes on post on each post so that is why. I really hope that you take that away. If you were like wondering should. I even have a podcast. Because i don't have an audience yet. Just imagine a swift slap in the face and open up your eyes and say all right. That's how i'm going to build that audience. That i need so love it love it love it. What is the final piece of advice. Sophia that you want to give to the listener and before you mention it. I will let the listener no again. We don't cost on all of our podcast episodes but when we do we do it right when we do. We've mark explicit because we don't want the whole podcast to be taken down so this podcast tidal has a cuss word in there. She did it on purpose in order to get you to be surprised and to open up and say what's going on here. I gotta try that so shit show of my twenties. No i'm saying it wrong. You gotta fix it. Show my twenty s okay. The the i missed it. So that's already in the show notes so if you're listening just grow right down and you'll be able to check that out. I hope that if and when you do if you listen to like one or two episodes and you have a good feel for what you think of the podcast. I would ask you to give an honest written rating and review with so four sophia. She reads each. And every one of these. And that way you can know what else you want her to talk about. An who else you want her to have on the show to spend just a couple of minutes and it really only takes that long to leave her rating and review and feel free to let her know. Hey i heard about you on atoms. Podcast go ahead and say that in the review to and if you haven't reviewed this show go ahead and do it. So we're wrapping up. And i want you to share what you want the listener to know before we go. Yes so something that. I wish i would have focused on earlier. Is linked in so i just started really focusing on it the last thirty days so the last thirty days decided okay. I miss share stories. I've never shared before ammunition..

"If i think it could be a good fit later on but right now i just don't see it as a good fit. I love what you're doing. I just think it's a good match for the show. So just being honest with them and just being transparent in another thing. Yeah i would say that's the best advice is just being honest and transparent and even though it's hard it's a lot better than doing an interview that you know is not in the limelight with you and just sitting in through the interview it's harder. It's a lot harder than how to say. No and you know no is actually a lot easier when you compare it to that interview and compare it to being not in the and comparing it to having that discussion that you knew at the beginning was not one that was supposed to be had very good. The second one that you mentioned was also really really good takeaway waiting until you're ready. I thought that was interesting. Because there's such a big difference. There's there's just gonna start. And i'm not going to over. Think it and it could be crappy podcast with sound quality below. What you want it to be could be that you don't have the good the best guests you have the wrong guest. If you move too fast it could be that you title it wrong. There's a lot that could happen like if you go too fast but at the same time if you go to slow you might never ever do it so i think that's really interesting. Is there a balance point for you. Sofia because i generally preach to my listener. Ready aim fire. I generally am telling them. Don't go ready. Fire aim like everybody else's telling you as i'm just curious do what do you think the balance is of what you need to think about what you need to have done where you can change it. Later that's appropriate in your mind. Sophia i realized they tend to attract log perfectionists early. That's because i'm a perfectionist..

"So i think it's just really having the courage at the beginning to reach out to them and just to know even if they say no. That's okay and that doesn't necessarily mean no forever. They could potentially be aghast in your podcast a year or two three years down the line. One of the things that i really liked that you said was that you would look for guests everywhere. And you you actually. You named several different websites. Like pod match pod booker and several others. So i'll instruct the person doing the post production editing of this episode to go back and listen to each of those. Make sure to get good notes and we will be having all of those links that you mentioned all of those resources in a cute little area on the podcast show notes and so if you're listening now if you were like man she went so fast. Don't worry we've already linked each and every one of those up it's in the show notes. Just scroll down and be able to click on those hyper links for any of the websites that she just mentioned another thing that i really love sophia that you mentioned as you were teaching us how to get guest is that you. Just don't worry about what they say that you're not concerned they might say no. That's okay and i think that's one of the scariest things that hold me back and many other people back in you to. Sometimes i'm sure it has been inhibiting but being open to the rejection or the not now is super duper important and the third takeaway that i got from you is that you were asking tons of guests prior to the launch of the podcast before you had a big following before all of these things happened and you mentioned that you would sell them on the vision. You would let them know you who you are what you're trying to achieve. And it was something that they wanted to get behind. And i think that's a takeaway the all of us can have so with all that said you gave tons of good and useful tips and i wanna find out in your experience where you are right now so via has been like the absolute.

Why she's passionate about it but we're actually not even gonna talk about that today. We're gonna talk about finding a provider and advocating for yourself It's a topic that she's really passionate about. And i'm really passionate about because We've both had those experiences and we know so many people that have had those experiences of going to your provider and trying to share with them. What you're going through and just either being completely dismissed or they're unwilling to work with you or they only have like one answer. And you're like i really don't wanna take that route.

Yeah exit and to help us. How to advocate for ourselves when it comes to having a baby what important questions to ask our doctors and how to get the ball rolling instead of just being told okay try for it so try and come back in a year right which i love and hate that advice because it's not really advice but i see why doctor said and so what we're going to talk about today just kind of like equipping yourself being ready to have that conversation and you know going into that appointment ready to partner with your doctor. And that's really the way that i want you to see your relationship with your physicians as you're trying to conceive even when you become pregnant when you're getting ready to your baby like all of those things seeing them as a wise expert that you consult were. Meanwhile you are the queen. You are the president. He's the secretary of medicine. Yeah you make the decisions. But that's a wise person to ask right a to look at your relationships with your physicians Yeah i'm super excited to talk about it so before we dive into. I'd love for you to tell us. How did you get into this work. And what brought you to be passionate about helping. People be knowledgeable on trying to conceive and the steps that they need to take so it. Really you know as many of us. Dietitians began in our fledgling nutrition careers. It started off with me having health issues that my doctors couldn't really solve and i knew nutrition was abusive at. They were just really not equipped to help me with and You know they would you come in with gi issues. The best you can get is like a pilot sak prescription. You know you're really not gonna get much from them. They'll maybe do like scope though maybe take some blood And look for you know these. Do you have like a roaring tapeworm parasite or something like that. But other than that. They can't really help. So that kind of started my journey of wanting to learn more about food and what it did. And i was in like seventh grade at that point and then as i grew up i knew i wanted to be in healthcare so i kind of thought i wanted to work as a physical therapist and i.

And and so that i. I left the country. I moved the rainforest with my family and central america for a whole year. Wow i had a room of my own. it's a gift. That few women of color mothers activists are ever given. I thank god for it. Because i was just able to sit it. Felt like being in the womb of the earth and it wasn't able to sit and breathe and think and i poured through everything i had written since i was seven years old regional i had written and every textbook i had gathered and i began to ask this question of how how and i began to see patterns practices that i had never seen before practices that i call the core practices of revolutionary love. So that's when. I started to write my book. No stranger and you'll see it's forty pages of end notes in the back because it's deeply researched you know. It's pulling from neuroscience and ethics and history and psychology infused with ancestral wisdom. Like how did our ancestors find Resilience longevity how did they build community where they were anti-racists healthy sustainable community. And how can we do that now. And so that is what it means for me to organize around love. Now i started the revolutionary love project and people can go to see no stranger dot com. And you'll see all of our work brought to life a whole learning hub and teaching videos and guided inquiries and meditations. And you know what. I'm seeing now. Sophia's i'm seeing like schools that are taking revolutionary love and making it the ethic of their school culture or houses of worship bringing their congregations around it and teaching it with each other seeing seen universities of seeing activists. So i i feel like my work now is quieter but it's actually deeper netted. Some revolutions happen not just in the in the grand moments where people are are. Are resisting revolutions happen in the spaces where people coming together to inhabit a new way of being That now that i found revolutionary love. It will be the song. We'll be singing for the rest of my life. That's beautiful home. And i'm i'm so excited about what you've built so that we can participate not not just in the more not just with c o stranger but but really giving people a place to go and return to is such a gift and i think about how fortunate we all art have to have a guidebook like this that you know you published just last year and even that the documentary divided.

I don't i don't think they have to be superhuman or saints to be able to be remembered and recognized for their dignity to be affirmed. And there's something remarkable about bogere uncle. You know the more i have. I spent time with his family even after his death. The more stories emerged of how deeply he led with love. Just how deeply. Even when on the day he was killed he was at costco buying those crates of flowers and he saw A jar at the checkout line to donate to the victims of nine eleven. He just emptied out his pocket. Everything had seventy five dollars he. He was looking for a flag to fly on his store on the day he was killed because he led with love it changed. His brothers was part of a big family and how they chose to respond to his death almost every year. In the last twenty years i returned to the gas station where it will be. Wrongful was murdered I sit at the spot where he was planting those flowers. I closed my eyes. And i make my promise bogere on glide promised to tell your story every year and and a few years ago. I went to make the promise. And that's when the hate violence was skyrocketing in rana his younger brother. Who's been trying to tell the story for at that point. Fifteen years turned to me and he said nothing has changed. And i said okay. Bogere uncle lead with love. Who is the one person we have not yet tried to love and sophia. The next morning we called his killer in prison. We called frank rogue and at first. Frank says while. I'm sorry for what happened to your uncle. But i'm also sorry for all those who were killed after nine eleven. He's not taking responsibility. But then rana listening to frank. He can hear what i can't hear. He keeps wondering about him right and he says offering. This is the first time. I've heard you say you were sorry and praying says yes. I am sorry for what i did to your brother. When i go to heaven to be judged by god. I will ask to see your brother. And i will hug him. I'll ask for his forgiveness. And ron says we've already forgiven you. Forgiveness is not forgetting we can never forget what has been taken from us. Forgiveness is not forgetting but forgiveness is freedom from hate freedom from animosity. And and i think that if if ron so d could you know could refuse to create another us versus them if he could refuse to let anyone outside of circle of care. Even what would happen if we could do that as a country it would be. Revolutionary will be incredible. I think about that. That gap the fifteen years between your uncle being killed in a new speaking killer and he mentioned that you didn't know when at the start of those fifteen years when when you went on the road and you began to document and tell people's stories co from town to town and make sure there was a record of people being harmed by this kind of violence. You didn't know it was going to turn into documentary. You didn't have any background in filmmaking. I'm very curious about how you put the film together..

Sophia Yan Discusses the Challenges of Producing 'Hong Kong Silenced'
"You just wrapped working on hong kong silence which really sits at the center of a lot of very hot topics china just how challenging was that production to pull the yellow one of the biggest challenges that we faced was in figuring out how we can best protect the people that we were interviewing there is there is apparently technology now where you can unscramble voice distortion and you can figure out what somebody actually sounded like. And so in our efforts to try to protect these people were trying to figure out how to master voice in a way that they wouldn't then later be identified because not all of them were willing to use their real name. Many of them were still in hong kong and with national security law. This was a law that had come in a little over a year ago. Criminalising really any active dissents that the government. The chinese government didn't like it criminalizes. Very broad buckets subversions session terrorism peugeot. Anything that the government thinks is basically not okay And so these people are still in hong kong that we were speaking to a really at risk if they were to be identified at risk of being arrested and then possibly charged with this new law under this new law and so we were trying to make sure that we were able to protect them and so finding them was already tough because of course they were worried about being so much out in the open as speaking about these very personal issues and really their political views and then secondly we were trying to figure out how best then to deal with the audio so they were issues for instance in where we restoring the files. Especially for me locally. I'm based in beijing. And so i generally think devices are compromised by the state. I think probably pretty much all hacked So where we were storing files how i was sending them securely over to our h q. In london and also then what we would do with voice and so in the end we decided in all cases were the people had to be anonymous that we would then use a voice actor to then read the lines that we wanted and so it changed a little bit because it just sound more professional. You can tell that it's a an actor reading it. Sometimes i mean obviously in character and we were able to find people with an accent cantonese. Accent for instance reading in english and in some cases we needed that anyway because of the translation because we interview people in candidates so we needed the translation into english but even still just ground all of these little nuances and how best to deal with. The situation took quite a while to ensure that we could then tell these people who agreed to speak with us that we couldn't that we had done our best to make sure that they couldn't be identified later

"sophia" Discussed on Everything Everywhere Daily
"Before i begin. Let me address the elephant in the room. How do you pronounce the name of this building. The problem stems from the fact that the name was given classic. Greek which is pronounced slightly different than modern greek in the city was eventually taken over by turks. If you had no background in just a standard english speaker you might pronounce it huggy however that has never been how it's been pronounced there's also higher high gear with eight silent. The standard pronunciation in what i'll be using in this episode is this would be as if it were spelled a. y. a. which is actually how it's spelt in turkish and modern greek. It might be is. The second thing is the meaning of the name. I've read in several places where they prefer to the building as saint sophia. That is emphatically not what the name is. And never was the name of the church when it was constructed and holy wisdom and it was an attribute of christ not the name of a saint with that out of the way. The ice afia is one of the largest and oldest extent buildings in the world by this. I mean it isn't a ruin or just a structure like the pyramids but an actual building with four walls and a roof which is still in use today as a building. Is the third church to exist on the current site with the previous two churches having been destroyed by riots. The first church was known as magna ecclesia and was commissioned by the emperor status the second the son of constantine the great in the year three sixty. This building was destroyed by riots in the year four. Oh four the next building was constructed by byzantine emperor theodosius the second who consecrated it in the year for fifteen and remember back to my very first episode of the podcast that the byzantine empire was just a name given to the eastern roman empire. After the fact all of these people consider themselves to be romans that building which also held the name. I afia was burned down in a riot in five. Thirty two during the nika revolt against the emperor justinian which was the greatest riot ever seen in the history of the empire. Half of constantinople was destroyed and tens of thousands of people were killed the nika. Riots are a fascinating subject involving opposing sports teams and we'll be the subject of a future episode the emperor justinian who i previously talked about my episode. The plague of justinian was a big builder and when the previous church burned down. He wanted to leave his mark. He commissioned what would be the biggest building in the world. it wasn't just the biggest building in the world. It was the biggest building in the world for almost a thousand years. It wasn't until the construction of the cathedral of seville and fifteen zero seven that anything surpassed in size. The building is of masonry construction built with massive arches and domes. It isn't a light building with thin walls. As you see in gothic cathedrals in europe it has the appearance of a massive structure which is what was necessary at the time to create something so large the central dome is fifty five point six meters or one hundred and eighty two feet five inches tall with a maximum diameter of thirty one..

We've had a lot of different jobs before we got there and actually your first job. Straight out of college was on wall street. Which is so different What was that like. I mean this is going to age me but working on wall street way back then pretty much fit every nightmare story. Every bad stereotype that you can imagine. I actually was working on the trading floor which was just so challenging on so many levels like if you were to think about me to everyone in that organization would have been fired. It was just kind of extreme case that things that you've seen in the movies effectively where women were wildly disrespected It was an incredibly male dominant very aggressive environment and one that i just be just wasn't ready for it. Toughened me up. It turned my mouth into like a terrible potty mouth as a result because that was actually the only way that i could kind of have any credibility with folks there. I'd have to like throwing bomb in order for someone to actually hear my voice so it certainly toughened me up. I mean on many levels. It was so difficult that like every job. That followed was easy but it was pretty crazy introduction into the work world. What is an example. Because i mean. I can imagine from the movies that you're coming into this wild room where it's mostly men so i mean i have so many stories from like being invited to strip clubs and people using the squawk boxes to place bets on how much we a woman who has had put on during her maternity. Leave to just being cursed at on the floor
