Hyannis Port, Massachusetts, is synonymous with the Kennedy family. It is where, for a hundred years, America’s most storied political family has come to celebrate, bond, play, and, also, grieve. It is also the setting of so many events we remember. Now, with extraordinary access to the Kennedy family, journalist Kate Storey gives us a remarkably intimate and poignant look at the rhythms of an American dynasty and delivers a rich and textured account of the Kennedys’ lives in their summer refuge.

On June 2, 1892, in the small, idyllic village of Port Jervis, New York, a young Black man named Robert Lewis was lynched by a violent mob. The twenty-eight-year-old victim had been accused of sexually assaulting Lena McMahon, the daughter of one of the town's well-liked Irish American families. The incident was infamous at once, for it was seen as a portent that lynching, a Southern scourge, was about to extend its tendrils northward. Philip Dray revisits this time and place to consider its significance and to show how justice cannot be achieved without an honest reckoning.

Escape to the Highland Coral Beach - where broken hearts can be healed. Beatrice Halliday needs a break from life. Booking a trip to the Highlands on a whim, Beatrice hopes learning Gaelic in a beautiful Scottish village might help heal her grief after losing her baby, her husband and her much-loved job in the space of months. But Port Willow Bay isn't exactly as the website promised. Instead of learning a new language, she's booked in to learn the ancient skill of willow weaving, her hotel room is Princess and the Pea themed (with a stack of mattresses for her bed!) and worse still, her tutor is Atholl Fergusson, the grumpy landlord of the hotel where Beatrice is staying.

Back for episode 40, the boys reconvene over a couple of beers and get right into a quietly reported story about VW group cars being held in North American ports.  Using embargoed parts to make up other parts is frowned upon....allegedly.  This was like winding up the organ to get them talking about Dealership woes and what sets good dealers apart from bad ones. Then, Matt brings up a recent patent filed by Rolex for a new ceramic Black/Red bezel, hinting at a new "Coke" GMT.  Furthermore, they discuss the findings that making a Blue bezel with the newer ceramic seems impossible at the ...

Giulia is ten. She has never left the tiny island she lives on. She never wants to. Her best friend on the island - besides her older sister - is a donkey. She ties ribbons around his head and thinks she will marry him when the time comes. Her island is one filled with widows. Widows that are watched over by the Shipmaster and his many sons. It is a place that feels stuck in time - verdant, plentiful, happy, peaceful. Until the men arrive. And the vines begin to fail. And everything changes.

Remember when an unattended package was just that, an unattended package? Remember when the airport was a place that evoked magical possibilities, not the anxiety of a full-body scan? In the post-9/11 world, we have become focused on heightened security measures, but do you feel safer? Are you safer? Against Security explains how our anxieties about public safety have translated into command-and-control procedures that annoy, intimidate, and are often counterproductive.
