it should not surprise anybody who follows my work that I wrote a bunch more songs last year. (Peter Balkan was written in 2024.) Here's one we're releasing early in honor of Bob Weir. Enjoy -- we're donating proceeds to the American Cancer Society. themountaingoats.bandcamp.com/track/going-...

I’m reliably informed that three days before Christmas is the ideal time to post exciting professional news on social media, so:

I’m hosting a podcast! About media! For @columjournreview.bsky.social! It’s gonna be fun; subscribe here: www.cjr.org/the-kicker
In the coming year, we will be welcoming Megan Greenwell—a longtime editor, now the bestselling author of Bad Company: Private Equity and the Death of the American Dream-as our new host of the Kicker podcast. Greenwell, who also writes features for Bloomberg Businessweek and other publications (including CJR), teaches journalism at Syracuse University and is the deputy director of the Princeton Summer Journalism Program, a workshop and college access initiative for high school students from low-income backgrounds. She has worked for outlets including the Washington Post, New York, Deadspin, and Wired. Stay tuned for her first Kicker episode after the New Year.

With the Trump administration cutting off SNAP benefits, I think it's really time to pull together. I made a little donation to City Harvest, and if you donate to any food bank and tell me what your small problem is, I'll give you a pep talk in Monday's newsletter! (Send me your receipt too!)

I dug through the paperwork for all 18 LLCs that Jordon Hudson has registered with Massachusetts since she started dating Bill Belichick.

They tell the story a young woman with big plans for her and her boyfriend.

NBA media is not built to cover a gambling scandal, but Defector is: defector.com/products
When the FBI arrested Terry Rozier and Chauncey Billups, the basketball-watching public turned to sports media to help make sense of the story. What explanations were on offer? Before disclosing its own BetMGM partnership, The Athletic called “all of sports” complicit in the scandal. Bill Simmons dismissed the episode as ”a couple bad apples,” growing pains typical of a growth industry. Zach Lowe had ESPN's betting guy on his podcast; together they concluded that these issues can be tinkered out of existence by limiting prop bets and changing how teams report injuries. Lowe's podcast, like Simmons's, began with a FanDuel ad. The takeover of sports media by gambling companies imposes hard boundaries on the domain of these conversations. Most importantly, these captured discussions always obscure the social and political choices that enable the gambling industry to entrench itself. Allowing people to gamble on their phones and allowing sports gambling companies to spend untold sums on lobbying and advertising are choices. These choices, not some law of nature, are why millions of people have started gambling in recent years. Likewise, other sports media companies have chosen to offer up their audiences as prey to gambling outfits. Defector has chosen something else: We never have and never will take money from gambling companies. Subscribers fund our operations, which allows us to remain independent, critical, and uncompromised. Consider making that choice.
