Life Interview - Herman Fouse: Hey, That's Me!

This episode is a snapshot of my life as it stands right now. We talk about growing up without consistency, the people who shaped me, the relationships that changed over time, living with cystic fibrosis, and how all of that informs who I am as a parent today.

Weekly Newsish Jan 15, 2026

This week's Weekly Newsish moves from the strange to the serious, starting with a major volcanic eruption in Hawaii and lighter stories like cats being brought into Japanese offices. The episode then shifts into political and civil-rights stories, including President Trump flipping off a Ford factory worker, the worker’s suspension, and growing concern over ICE activity and violence in Minneapolis following the killing of Renee Good. Additional stories include a large-scale nurse strike in New York, a biodegradable plastic breakthrough at Rutgers University, Fetty Wap’s early release from prison, orcas using kelp as tools, manatee rehabilitation efforts in Florida, a resurfaced zoo animal theft case, and the birth of a baby orangutan at Cameron Park Zoo.

Weekly Newsish Solo Edition Jan 8 2026

This week’s Newsish didn’t unfold the way I expected. I sat down with a full list of stories to cover, but one story — an ICE agent killing a woman in Minnesota — refused to be just another headline. This episode stays with that story and the questions it raises: about repeated patterns of force, about official narratives that contradict what we can see for ourselves, and about what it does to us when we’re asked to accept those contradictions as normal. This is not a comprehensive news roundup. It’s a deliberate pause to examine how power is exercised, how it’s justified, and why moments like this leave so many of us feeling exhausted, frustrated, and unsure how to respond.
