1. ==> Was Jimmy Kimmel’s Suspension Jawboning?

The Jimmy Kimmel show will return tonight after an outcry over his suspension over comments about the Charlie Kirk shooting. Legal experts said the suspension could have set up a high-profile legal challenge. “If the First Amendment was meant to prevent censorship, this is the prime example of it," said Alex Abdo, litigation director of the Knight First Amendment Institute at Columbia University. Government officials are legally permitted to try to persuade a private actor, like ABC, to change speech, but they cannot coerce a broadcaster to do so, according to Abdo. "In some sense, it almost doesn't matter if they're right in the law, because, on the ground, they're achieving the censorship of protected speech, which is their goal," Abdo says. "The truth is Kimmel's voice (was) silenced and the voice of others will likely be silenced." Contact him at (646) 745-8502; alex.abdo@knightcolumbia.org

2. ==> Expert on Trump’s Autism/Acetaminophen Link

President Trump says the Food and Drug Administration will begin notifying doctors that the use of acetaminophen in pregnancy “can be associated” with an increased risk of autism—but did not immediately provide any medical evidence for the FDA's new recommendation. Brain experts say the developmental disorder has no single cause and the rhetoric appears to ignore decades of science into the genetic and environmental factors that can play a role. Research has shown no direct connection between autism and acetaminophen, which is commonly known by the brand name Tylenol. Invite Dr. Robert Melillo, a neuroscientist, clinician and expert on autism, to discuss Trump’s move and his claims that the drug is “a very big factor” in causing autism. Melillo developed a leading approach to treat neurological and developmental disorders such as ADHD, autism, and learning disabilities combining cutting-edge neuroscience with therapeutic interventions. An international speaker and the author of several books including “Disconnected Kids,” Dr. Melillo is recognized worldwide for his work in advancing brain-based therapies.

3. ==> Watchdog Group Issues ‘Hospital Crisis Watch’

The nonprofit group Protect Our Care has relaunched its Hospital Crisis Watch to alert the public that the new federal budget will shutter rural hospitals, slash healthcare services, and leave communities in crisis by limiting the ways that states fund Medicaid and reimburse hospitals for care. “The effects are already enormous. It’s outpaced even my expectations, and everyone in the field was already very concerned about rural hospitals,” says Maddie Twomey. “They were already hanging on by a thread, so these cuts are devastating.” Currently, 330 hospitals are at risk of immediate closure or of scaling back critical services and more than 750 hospitals are at risk of closing in the coming years. But Twomey emphasizes that hospitals aren’t the only healthcare facilities at risk. “People don’t always realize that Medicaid is a huge payer for long term care and a huge part of aging, even in middle class families. There is a narrative from this administration that they aren’t touching seniors’ healthcare––but it couldn’t be further from the truth. This is going to impact people of all ages, from birth in the maternity ward to the nursing home.” Maddie Twomey is the communications director at Protect Our Care, a 501(c)(4) social welfare nonprofit. Contact her at press@protectourcare.org or mtwomey@protectourcare.org

4. ==> 10 Rules to Raise Kids in a High-Tech World

Jean Twenge, a psychology professor at San Diego State University, has spent the past decade warning about smartphones. She believes technology is what drives generational differences and her latest book, “10 Rules for Raising Kids in a High-Tech World,” stems from years of giving talks and fielding questions from parents asking: How do I get my child to put down the phone? “It often feels like the whole world is conspiring to keep our kids tethered to tech,” she writes in her new book. “And that’s because it is.” Twenge will discuss specific ways parents can limit kids’ screentime, her #1 rule for kids and phones, and share how she has implemented rules in her own home. Ask her: My kid already has a smartphone and is already using social media. Can I put the genie back in the bottle? Won’t my kid be left out if they’re the only one without a smartphone or social media? How is What do you say to experts who claim that each child and family is different, and there is no one-size-fits-all answer to how much access kids should have, or when they should get a phone? Jean Twenge is the author of  more than 190 scientific publications and eight books, including “10 Rules for Raising Kids in a High-Tech World.” For interviews contact AtriaPublicity@simonandschuster.com

5. ==> Do a Show for Fans of TV’s ‘Bones’ 

Kathy Reichs’ best-selling book series featuring Temperance “Bones” Brennan was the inspiration for Fox TV’s longest-running scripted drama. Bring the author and certified forensic anthropologist on your show and discuss “Bones,” how the series and forensic anthropology in general have changed over the past two decades, and what’s in store for Tempe in the 24th installment, “Evil Bones.”  Reichs’ latest book, a twisty, magnetic thriller, is due out later this fall.

What he's seen behind the scenes will challenge everything you think you know about justice in America. From disparities in sentencing to the role of wealth, race, and politics in determining outcomes, Porfido argues that the system often fails the very people it claims to protect. His message isn’t partisan—it’s human, and it’s urgent. Drawing from real cases (with identities protected), Porfido brings powerful, clear-eyed insights about how we can repair a system that too often rewards power over fairness. With his calm, credible voice and rare experience on both sides of the aisle, Porfido is the legal expert audiences will trust. Contact him at (973) 620-2157; jporfido@rtirguests.com

7. ==> An Innovative Approach to Safer Communities

What if preventing gang violence, drug activity, and youth crime didn’t require additional cops, but more empowered citizens? For over 40 years, crime prevention consultant Stephanie Mann has trained “Neighborhood Safety Experts” (NSEs) to do just that. Working alongside—but independent from—police, NSEs are trusted community members who speak the language, understand the culture, and unite neighbors to reclaim their blocks. From reducing gun sales to identifying traffickers, this grassroots strategy has built safer, healthier, and more connected neighborhoods through the organization of over 27 citywide prevention committees. With cities spending billions on crime after it happens, isn’t it time we focused on preventing it in the first place? Invite Mann on your show to get insights on how ordinary people can powerfully protect their communities. Contact Stephanie Mann at (925) 438-0716; smann@rtirguests.com

8. ==> Is ‘The Pitt’ Real? The Trauma Nurses and Patients Face

America’s healthcare system is in crisis—but what’s often ignored is the trauma beneath the surface. Kathy Allan, a board-certified holistic nurse with over two decades of experience in trauma recovery, says many nurses today are emotionally broken, betrayed by the very system they once trusted. Patients, too, are suffering from care that feels cold, rushed, and disconnected. In interviews, Allan reveals how this hidden trauma plays out, much like in the TV show, “The Pitt.” Drawing on her “12 Steps of Healing Care” and years as a healing touch instructor and somatic experiencing practitioner, Allan offers a spiritual and body-centered roadmap for transforming pain into purpose. Her stories and insights will resonate with nurses, healthcare workers, and anyone who’s ever felt harmed by the system that was supposed to help them.

9. ==> Why Cutting Ultra-Processed Foods is So Hard

We’ve all heard about the dire health consequences of ultra-processed food (UPFs) including links to obesity, diabetes and cardiovascular disease. So why is it so hard to cut them out of our diet? Ashley Gearhardt, a psychologist who studies compulsive eating at the University of Michigan, says one of the reasons is that ultra-processed snacks undermine our hunger for whole foods. She says studies have found that repeated exposure to unhealthy snacks shifts our preferences away from healthier foods. “After you eat a big hit of crackers or pretzels, two hours later, you’re getting this blood-sugar crash, and you’re craving more of the same. It’s hard to have the hunger for real food if you’ve already eaten so many energy-dense foods throughout the day.” Gearhardt can help listeners set up parameters to make the transition away from processed food easier, like setting up specific times and places that you can keep UPF-free, like in your home or car, and share ways to make eating healthier food easier and more accessible. Contact Ashley Gearhardt at (734) 647-3920;  agearhar@umich.edu

11. ==> Pet Grief: Real Ways to Weather the Loss

Losing a beloved pet can be heart-wrenching. Jean Alfieri, author, speaker, and pet loss grief coach, understands. Her rescue dog, Silly Sally, taught her how to grieve, remember, and celebrate the special bond we share with our pets. Having adopted older shelter dogs for decades, Alfieri had experi¬enced pet loss before. But when Sally passed, she returned to creative outlets to process her grief. Along the way, she was reminded of others facing similar loss: single friends whose only family was a pet, parents helping a child grieve their first dog, and seniors or veterans who’d lost a comfort or therapy animal. To support grieving pet owners, Alfieri developed 21 ways to weather the loss of a pet, a practical, heartfelt toolbox of ideas to help others navigate the pain of loss while honoring their pet’s memory. Her goal? To bring comfort and lightness by reminding us that love never ends, it simply changes form. Contact Jean Alfieri at (480) 725-7921: jalfieri@rtirguests.com

15. ==> Where Was Jesus Before He Was Born? The Bible’s Best Kept Secret

Did you know Jesus was active long before His birth in Bethlehem? In the new book, “Before I Was Jesus,” Gerald Robison reveals the surprising truth about Jesus' role throughout the Bible—before the manger and the cross. Gerald explores 25 hidden identities of Jesus found in the Old Testament, showing how He was active in God’s plan long before He was born.

1. ==> These US Veterans are Part of Aid Flotilla to Gaza

Two U.S. veterans are among a huge aid flotilla comprised of more than 50 ships from at least 44 countries. The Global Sumud Flotilla is on its way to Gaza, set to arrive in about two weeks. It’s a significant maritime initiative aimed at delivering humanitarian aid to Gaza amid the ongoing blockade. The effort, which began several weeks ago in Barcelona and Tunis, has not been without setbacks, including at least one drone strike. Coordinated by grassroots organizers, seafarers, doctors, artists, and solidarity activists from over 40 countries, the flotilla is a nonviolent humanitarian mission. Those participating include members of parliament from Europe, Mandla Mandela from South Africa, Greta Thunberg from Sweden and two U.S. veterans: Gregory Stoker and Philip Tottenham. Stoker has been posting videos of the trip. Contact him at greg.j.stoker@gmail.com; @gregjstoker. Philip Tottenham recently appeared on “Flashpoints.” Contact him at philiptottenham@gmail.com

2. ==> The Very Human Story of Artificial Intelligence

Think artificial intelligence (AI) is all about data and algorithms? Think again. Researcher David Eliot places humans at the center of AI’s story and makes a compelling case for the role we have yet to play in the technology’s transformation of our world. He’ll take listeners on a journey through the key moments and decisions that have shaped AI’s creation and, consequently, our lives, and show how AI has the capacity to impact everything from education, sports, and medicine to business, culture, and dating—from how we learn to who we love. He invites us to find our place in the story of AI,  understand its effect on our lives and decide what kind of future we want to help create. Ask Eliot: How exactly does AI work? Will it make our work life easier or will it cost us our jobs? Will it lead to cookie-cutter art, movies, music and books or will it have a liberating effect on creativity? Is AI racist? David Eliot is a PhD candidate at the University of Ottawa, where he researches the social and political effects of artificial intelligence. He is the author of “Artificially Intelligent: The Very Human Story of AI.” Contact Lissa Warren at (617) 233-2853; LissaWarrenPR@gmail.com or @Lissa_Warren

3. ==> 5 Ways to Cut Your Stroke Risk

Every 40 seconds, someone in the United States has a stroke. That’s 795,000 strokes every year. Stroke remains one of the nation’s deadliest health challenges, accounting for approximately one in every 20 deaths in 2022, and many who survive are left with significant health challenges. Dr. Jeremy M. Liff, a board-certified neurologist specializing in stroke and brain aneurysms, can discuss five ways to cut your stroke risk. Ask him: What should I know about the different types of strokes and their warning signs? What blood pressure numbers put me in the stroke danger zone? How do lifestyle factors like diet, exercise, and sleep quality specifically impact stroke risk? What symptoms warrant immediate emergency care versus urgent but not emergent follow-up? Dr. Liff is a senior member of the Society of Neurointerventional Surgery and serves patients across the tri-state area. Contact Ryan McCormick at (516) 901-1103

5. ==> The Battle Over the Bible in Schools

Back in the 1960s the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that requiring Bible readings in schools was unconstitutional, but Joel Penton, founder and CEO of LifeWise Academy, argues that the move triggered a cultural and educational decline in America. LifeWise began operating in a handful of schools back in 2019 bringing religious scripture back to students during the school day through what is called “released-time religious instruction.” The program takes students off school grounds, with parental permission, to attend privately funded Bible-based education. Today, LifeWise Academy is in more than 1,100 schools across 34 states and the program was recently awarded an innovation prize by the Heritage Foundation, a right-wing think tank. Agree with Penton or not, a discussion of the role of faith in education is particularly timely. Contact Marianna Gibson at marianna@jonesliterary.com 

6. ==> Want to Heal Division? Teach Inclusion and Tackle Bias

Division is rising in politics, workplaces, schools and even friend groups. But Dr. Dionne Poulton says healing starts with a simple truth: we all have biases and ignoring them only deepens the divide. As a PhD-trained educator, former national athlete and DEI strategist with 20+ years of experience, she explains why inclusion efforts often fail—and how teaching people to recognize their own biases can shift entire environments and their interactions with others. She offers a non-shaming, evidence-based way for people—whether executives, team leaders, educators or parents—to rethink their assumptions and biases and rebuild human connection. Ask her: Can bias actually help us sometimes—and when does it backfire? Why are so many DEI efforts making things worse instead of better? Dr. Dionne’s new book is “DEI 2.0.” Contact her at dpoulton@rtirguests.com or call (404) 383-8924

7. ==> Office Arguments: How to Prevent Conflict Before It Starts

Samuel Bentil, a global dispute avoidance expert and the author of “Avoid Construction Disputes,” will teach listeners how to spot and stop conflict before it starts. With workplace tension, team burnout and leadership turnover on the rise, his message is right on time. Samuel’s proven strategies focus on emotional intelligence, trust-building and collaboration, the skills that turn daily friction into productivity. And these same tools don’t just work on the job. They improve communication and reduce tension at home and in the community too. Contact Samuel at (778) 656-0067; sbentil@rtirguests.com

She’ll discuss common safety mistakes parents make and how kids can be taught to prevent violence—not just avoid it. Contact Stephanie Mann at (925) 438-0716; smann@rtirguests.com

10. ==> Why Most Kids Hate Math and How to Fix It

This segment is for frustrated parents, overwhelmed teachers, or students dreading another year of math.

12. ==>‘Psychedelics Changed My Life’—A Therapist Shares the Healing Power of Plants

According to research presented at the Psychedelic Science 2025 conference in Denver, patients who had been diagnosed with major depressive disorder experienced a dramatic decrease in depression after just one dose of psilocybin (magic mushrooms). Psychotherapist Anjalia McGoldrick is living proof of the power of plant-based psychedelics. “I got pregnant at 13, was in an abusive relationship at 14, and escaped with my life at 16,” she says. “Although I became a successful psychotherapist, I still carried deep wounds.

13. ==> These Women Were Work-From-Home Pioneers

Long before Zoom meetings and side hustles, women were quietly building businesses from their kitchens, living rooms and basements, perfecting the work-from-home model long before it had a name. Motivational speaker and WIP Empowerment founder Roy Martin shines a light on these overlooked pioneers and connects their legacy to today’s thriving mompreneur movement. Roy will reveal why the term “Work From Home” is more than a post-pandemic trend, it’s a 120-year evolution led by women. He’ll share surprising historical examples (including how a divorced secretary helped Tupperware make its mark), explore the economic and cultural forces driving moms to entrepreneurship and explain how his WIP Empowerment initiative is helping modern women build passive income and flexible business success from home.

14. ==> Are Cell Phones the Main Cause Behind Rising Cancer?

Every third person today dies of cancer—and the number is steadily climbing. While most blame chemicals or the environment, health researcher and author Norbert Heuser says the biggest culprit may be hiding in plain sight: our cell phones. Studies now link electromagnetic radiation (EMR) from phones, Wi-Fi and smart meters to biological stress the human body cannot digest. The result? A possible driving force behind cancer, sleep disorders, dementia, reduced sperm count in men, fertility challenges for women and more. For more than 45 years, Norbert has investigated hidden health risks, from caffeine addiction and unhealthy drinking water to the 19 often-overlooked causes of poor sleep. But nothing alarms him more than the rise of EMR exposure and its overlooked role in modern disease. On your show, he can explain what the science shows, why mainstream medicine won’t touch this subject, and simple steps every listener can take today to protect themselves and their families.
