Karel Cast Podcast #181 Angela Bassett Oscar Loss, Plus #1 Plant on the Planet Racism! It's Racism! Or is it? Angela Bassett lost the Oscar to Jamie Lee Curtis. Was it racism? Or was it the fact that one performance was better? Well, it's complex. Plus, I didn't really like Wakanda Forever and there's that. I mean, a Black Panther movie should have, you know, the Black Panther. Then William Shurtleff from the SoyInfo Institute talks about the most economically important plant on the planet and why you don't eat it. Watch on YouTube and listen wherever you get your podcast.

Karel Cast Podcast #181 Angela Bassett Oscar Loss, Plus #1 Plant on the Planet

Leslie is joined by Connie Livingston, Senior Lead Counselor at Empowerly, which empowers students to become the most successful version of themselves with personalized college and career guidance.  Their tailored guidance helps students triumph over the college admissions process and spark the future of their dreams.
Connie has worked in the field of college counseling since 2008. She began her career as an Assistant Director of Admissions at Brown University and has since moved on to Empowerly, where she has worked for the past three years.

The pair examines the increasingly difficult college application process in the United States.
More and more students are applying to college. More and more applications means a lower percentage of acceptance. So the bar has been raised.
4.0's are now 5.0's, competition is international, there are no more DEI policies or 'boxes' for affirmative action/diversity.
So kids are taking SAT prep classes, doing a lot of outside work/volunteerism, etc. and additionally, parents are hiring college counselors.

Here are the questions answered during the interview:

1. What does an outside college counselor do?
2. Is there a range of fees? (Some people think it's unattainable for them because of the price)
3. Do they help the students write their essays? (editing them, etc)
4. Is there any assistance with SAT's?
5. Does it increase a student's chances of admission if they utilize a college counselor that is separate from their high school's college counselor?
6. Why is Empowerly better than a student trying to solely use AI, like ChatGPT, to help them with the admissions process?

The website for Empowerly is Empowerly.org.  Their handle on Instagram is @empowerlyinc and you can find them on Facebook.com/empowerly as well.

Mark is joined by a colleague of his in Virginia's state Congress, state Senator Amanda Chase.

A conservative Republican, Amanda spent the entire hour with Mark discussing their differences on policy, and what it means to be a conservative in the era of President Trump.

Senator Chase argues that there can be common ground found between opposing political sides, and believes not all Republicans have to behave like their President, even if one agrees with his policy decisions.

In this hour of "The Leslie Marshall Show," Leslie is joined by Fred Redmond, International Vice President (Human Affairs) for the United Steelworkers (USW).

On the 50th anniversary of the "Stonewall Riots" in NYC, commonly credited with the birth of the LGBTQ rights movement, Fred shares the new pro-LGBTQ initiatives that the USW is undertaking.

In a movement to both bolster LGTBQ involvement in the labor movement, and also dispel previous stereotypes of the typical 'blue collar worker,' (i.e. white, male, middle-aged, mid-Western), Fred thinks now is the best time to rethink how Labor Unions treat and support members of the LGBTQ community.

By partnering with the 'Pride at Work' non-profit organization, the USW is primed to augment their LGBTQ workers in their ongoing fight for social and economic justice.
