"In some ways it was easier to be a woman. I never intimidated anybody, so people didn't have their guard up when I was around...people probably told me more things than they should...once we won a championship, that kind of went out the window. Now I'm competition." www.npr.org/2025/02/28/n...

I mean, I know Kendrick and I are two L.A. kids through and through, Compton/Koreatown...but he didn't have to give me for me a shout out around his neck in the Super Bowl! I'm flattered...

Bryan Johnson: "The irony is the majority of the things I do to achieve these health markers are the basics. I'm just consistent in those routines...but these things are free. They are available to most people, and mostly they're just topics of habit and choice." www.npr.org/2025/02/03/n...

"If I'm completely honest, it's mostly come from male engineers that are, like, 'Why are you carrying all of this around? You [should] just get a laptop.' My question is always: Why? The answer has never been convincing enough." www.npr.org/2025/01/30/n... Btw, I think she let me name a song QQQQ

"Some guys who were fighting in Vietnam, they would say, your song helped us, gave us courage to go on...thing is, when you record a song & it's great & it's a hit & everything, you're not aware of how it's touching people, and they will be touched in different ways." www.npr.org/2025/01/22/n...

Law prof Kim Wehle: "There's an argument that pardon power not only incentivizes people to commit crimes, it also disincentivizes Congress to clean up the criminal justice system...idea being you can always ask for a pardon...that seems like unfairness all the way around" www.npr.org/2025/01/21/n...

Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson: "If they come in with warrants...no, we won't intervene or support in any way. But what I can say is that we have worked with community-based organizations as well as other stakeholders, so that the people of Chicago know their rights." www.npr.org/2025/01/21/n...

K-pop star #Rosé solo album: "I think it's a bit more challenging for me to know how to take a break because I've been so trained to just know how to work all the time. Learning & knowing how to rest is my next homework because I've never really been taught how to do it." Click ⬇️to hear interview

Sue Bird & Megan Rapinoe on whether #WNBA players are risking fan backlash for opting out of their CBA: "That's putting the lens of men's sports onto this, which I actually don't think works at all.

System of a Down was my #1 Spotify artist this year! And @amartinezla.bsky.social’s interview with SOAD lead singer Serj Tankian (that I produced) is my #1 favorite thing I worked on all year. He was very cool and I was relived I could remain a fan 😆: www.npr.org/2024/05/14/1...

Many dishes can be made days, even weeks early, without sacrificing taste, texture and enjoyment. Here are some tips:

Dan Souza, America's Test Kitchen: "I want to be clear, I'm not telling you to go order Thanksgiving from someone else. I want you to have home-cooked food. But the real key...is making the meal ahead of time so you're in reheat mode. It can be very, very low stress." www.npr.org/2024/11/25/n...

"We're going to offer people shelter beds. We're going to offer people bus tickets home. And then we're going to build those mental health and drug treatment beds. We are going to give people on the streets those three options, but there will no longer be an option to stay on our streets."

Daniel Lurie, Mayor-elect @sfgov.bsky.social "We need to mandate treatment. We have the ability to do that with state law now...but you can't do it unless you have the beds...but yes, we have to mandate treatment if somebody is unable to take care of themselves." www.npr.org/2024/11/22/n...
