MYNR ABROWN, HOST: Good morning!

Professional male athletes press the WNBA to say what that “W” stands for.

MARY REICHARD, HOST: That and more ahead on Culture Friday with John Stonestreet.

And a new film goes inside President Reagan’s Cold War showdown with Mikhail Gorbachev.

REAGAN: Here we are, the two of us, deciding whether there will be peace, or war, in the world.

And we’ll introduce an in-depth series about a young American who risked her life by entering Islamic State territory.

BROWN: It’s Friday, August 14th. This is The World and Everything in It from listener-supported WORLD Radio. I’m Myrna Brown.

REICHARD: And I’m Mary Reichard. Good morning!

BROWN: Up next, Kent Covington with today’s news.

KENT COVINGTON, NEWS ANCHOR: Iran » Leaders in Tehran are declaring once more that Iran, not the U.S., decides who sails through the Strait of Hormuz. That after President Trump said Wednesday that the U.S. has total control of the strait.

Tehran has a list of demands it says the U.S. must meet before it will allow the strait to fully reopen. A truce between the U.S. and Iran officially expires on Monday, though it has long since broken down, as have peace talks.

Retired four-star general Jack Keane says, with midterm elections approaching, Iran right now believes it has the upper hand.

KEANE: Because we went through the ceasefire over oil and gas prices and as we get closer to the midterms, they think the less likelihood that President Trump would ever react very consequentially i- in terms of military operations.

But the Trump administration says the U.S. can outlast Iran, whose economy is in crisis. Secretary of War Pete Hegseth said Thursday the Navy can keep its blockade of Iranian ports going indefinitely.

Meantime the aircraft carrier USS George Washington left Vietnam last week headed for the Middle East. It should relieve the USS Abraham Lincoln, at sea for more than 240 straight days, a Navy record. Families have complained about food and mail shortages, and the Navy blames wartime supply disruptions. But Hegseth says those complaints misrepresent life on the ship.

Huckabee on settler siege of Palestinian homes » U.S. Ambassador to Israel Mike Huckabee is condemning the actions of some Israeli settlers in the West Bank. WORLD’s Travis Kircher reports.

TRAVIS KIRCHER: In a rare rebuke Thursday, Ambassador Huckabee referred to some Israeli settlers as terrorists.

His comments came in the wake of a five-night standoff between dozens of Israeli settlers and the occupants of three Palestinian homes in the West Bank, a region the Israeli government refers to as Judea and Samaria.

Authorities say it started Sunday when the settlers surrounded the homes and refused to allow the Palestinian families to leave. They eventually erected tents and cut the Palestinians' access to water and electricity.

Israel's military condemned the settlers actions as illegal and reprehensible. Troops clashed with the settlers and eventually dismantled their outposts on Thursday.

But the brother of one of the Palestinian residents worries that as soon as the Israeli military leaves the settlers will return.

RIDI: It’s not working just to come and remove the settlers. You need to prevent the settlers coming to the entire area. You need to look where the source they're coming from and go prevent them.

Huckabee called the siege the actions of criminal terrorists. But he added that they represent a small minority of Israeli settlers in the West Bank, most of whom condemn the siege.

For WORLD, I'm Travis Kircher.

Homan on electric shock gloves » Immigration enforcement officers may soon be wearing gloves that deliver an electric shock.

ICE plans to spend up to $20-million on them. They look like ordinary patrol gloves until an officer presses a button at the wrist. More than 50 police departments already use them. Border czar Tom Homan defended the plan:

HOMAN: You've seen the videos in the past year and a half, the fights on the street where officers are overwhelmed. This would be a tool they can use to make someone compliant.

But critics allege that the agency has shown it's too quick to use force. And New York Attorney General Letitia James is threatening to prosecute officers who misuse the gloves.

Homan also weighed in on a killing in California. A judge released an illegal immigrant from Venezuela without bail, one day before prosecutors say he stabbed a 68-year-old man during a burglary.

HOMAN: The state government let you down. Look, they, they put a lot of roadblocks up. They try to make our job more difficult, but the bottom line is of June of this year, ICE made more arrests than any time in the history of ICE.

The suspect has pleaded not guilty, and a judge has denied him bail.

HHS fraud » The Department of Health and Human Services — HHS is calling on states to investigate possible Medicaid fraud related to performing transgender procedures on minors.

WORLD’s Harrison Watters has more from the nation’s capital.

WATTERS: HHS released a report Thursday detailing the possible manipulation of Medicaid billing codes. It says many providers appear to have hidden prescriptions for cross sex hormones and body-altering procedures behind insurance claims intended for other conditions like endocrine disorders.

Dr. Aaron Kheriaty helped write the report, and works with the Ethics and Public Policy Center.

KHERIATY: What sex-rejecting procedures do is they take [music] kids who are physiologically and medically healthy and make them dependent [music] upon the health care system, very often for life.

WATTERS: HHS also names nearly 200 hospitals and health systems that appear to have manipulated billing codes—including in states that have outlawed subjecting minors to transgender procedures. It’s now up to the Justice Department and HHS Inspector General to investigate and recommend legal action.

Reporting for WORLD, I’m Harrison Watters, in Washington.

SOUND: [Colombia rescue]

Colombia update » In Colombia, rescue crews with shovels and sledgehammers are carefully removing rubble, hoping to find more survivors from Monday’s devastating earthquake.

Desperation is growing. Four days later, with every passing day, the odds of finding more people alive grow slimmer.

One resident of the city of Pereira stood amidst the rubble. He said his mother was trying to get out of the building she was in but didn’t make it out in time.

AUDIO (translated): She was in her pajamas, with the keys in her hand, and she was apparently going to open the door. According to them, they found her with the keys still in her hand.

He said she was rescued but died on her way to the hospital.

TAMAYO: [Speaking Spanish]

The head of the country’s disaster-management agency David Santiago Tamayo provided an update Thursday.

TAMAYO: [Speaking Spanish]

He confirmed at least 273 deaths, with nearly 4,000 injured.

Official figures also list just under 400 people missing, but on citizen-run websites families have reported thousands missing.

Straight ahead: What does the W in the WNBA stand for? Plus, a new film takes viewers inside Reagan’s Cold War showdown with the Soviet Union.

This is The World and Everything in It.

MARY REICHARD, HOST: It’s Friday, August 14th

Glad to have you along for today’s edition of The World and Everything in It. Good morning, I’m Mary Reichard.

MYRNA BROWN, HOST: And I’m Myrna Brown. It’s Culture Friday. Joining us now is John Stonestreet, president of the Colson Center and host of the Breakpoint podcast. Good Morning John!

JOHN STONESTEET: Good morning

BROWN: We’ve celebrated a few cultural wins in this space over the years…I’m thinking of Jack Phillips the Masterpiece Cakeshop baker who refused to bake a custom cake for a same-sex union because of his biblical worldview of marriage…. That was in 2018.

In 2023 graphic designer Lori Smith won a first amendment free speech case, also centered around a biblical worldview of marriage.

And now we have Vanessa Sivadge. She’s the Christian nurse who was fired from her job at Texas Children’s Hospital after exposing alleged Medicaid fraud.

She noticed the hospital was listing children on their charts according to their preferred gender, not their biological sex. Then prescribing procedures based on that erroneous information and then charging it to Medicaid.

She filed a whistleblower lawsuit. The settlement was finalized last week, resulting in the first free detransitioner clinic in the United States.

Definitely a victory…but John when you think about transforming the culture…are we there yet?

STONESTEET: No, we're not there yet. And of course, it certainly depends on what you mean by transforming the culture. If you mean across the board into a true vision of what it means to be human, we've got a long, long way to go. If you are asking just specifically about the transgender issue, I'm more encouraged, but we still have a long way to go. And I don't want to repeat a mistake or repeat a blind spot that we had just recently with the Dobbs decision that came on the heels of all kinds of polling that made us all think that we were moving in a pro-life direction. And now on a structural level, on a legal level, and then on so many other levels, we're not. So what happened? What did we get wrong? There were people that were saying things like this was a pro-life generation. And maybe it will be, but it's not yet. And so what happened to that prediction? And I think part of it was kind of missing the underlying relativism upon which these questions about life and death were being answered. So, you know, a growing number of young people would be willing to say something like they were personally pro-life, but that didn't mean they were really pro-life. They were just personally pro-life. And they were stating that from a perspective of a deep seated moral relativism where they didn't actually think there was such a thing as right and wrong to begin with. I think when it comes to the transgender issue, when we've seen some brakes put on the runaway train, which is certainly way better than it was. you know, where it was just a couple of years ago. And we can all be thankful for these shifts and we can be thankful for the courage of Vanessa Savage and, and other whistleblowers that we've seen pop up all over the place.

And, you know, courageous voices, moms in particular who stood up for their kids and, and, and some, you know, fashion designers and, and children's authors. I mean, there's so many people we can point to and be grateful for it. um and and you know to put a stop on this but that's not the same thing as saying we have a really clear understanding of what it means to be male and what it means to be female and until we do and until we have a sense that male and female are actually fixed categories of what it means to be human what it means to bear god's image then we're still I think dealing with pretty shaky ground in the same way as any sort of victories that were happening on the pro-life front over the last couple of years. All these specific changes, all these specific shifts and policy changes that have happened are still happening on some ideological ground. And I'm not as convinced that we've got this anthropological crisis settled by any means. And that's the kind of the soil that we're seeing this fruit come out of anyway.

REICHARD: Well John, speaking of anthropology, as the sports fan that you are, I’m sure you’ve heard about the two former NBA players who say they plan to pursue the WNBA draft next year.

FREEDOM: I’m definitely not here to mock, make fun of or disrespect any community or personal choices. I’m simply asking that the current rules be applied to everyone.

That’s former NBA player Enes Kanter Freedom explaining why he’ll seek a spot in the WNBA. Royce White announced his plans first, posting on X, “ I realize after 35 years, I’m actually a woman.”

Under the WNBA’s current collective bargaining agreement, only women are eligible to play in the league. But the agreement does not define what a “woman” is.

Of course, Freedom and White say, that is exactly the entire point.

John, did you see this coming?

STONESTEET: And yeah, I did. I mean, I think somebody actually encouraged Enes Kanter Freedom to kind of do this, knowing that he has been a kind of courageous and unafraid voice for things that he believes are deep issues of justice and morality internationally to the top players in the NBA. So when I saw that he had been kind of challenged to, hey, it's time for you to enter the WNBA draft, I wondered if he would actually do it. And of course, he did. I thought it was really quite something then that the response from the WNBA is that the commissioner has announced a task force to try to answer this question. What is a woman in a league for a league that is called the Women's National Basketball Association. I mean, you know, this falls into the you can't make this stuff up category. There's so many of these incidents when it comes to this issue and our confusion about what it means to be human, what it means to be male and female.

And the NBA and basketball is a sport where this difference could not be more stark. I mean, look, you just got to turn on SportsCenter and see the top 10 plays during the NBA season versus the WNBA season. If there is a one-handed dunk in the WNBA, it is making the SportsCenter top 10. There's going to be 10 one-handed dunks a night in the NBA, and no one's going to blink twice. If there's a behind-the-back pass in the WNBA, it makes the top 10. Steph Curry tosses those out like tic-tacs. We're just not dealing with the same thing at all. And you certainly will have players that are going to… this bluff. If nothing else, then they've got the time on their hands and they've got the leisure and they care about these things pretty specifically. The WNBA is in a bind. It is already having an enormously difficult time protecting its already very fragile reputation because of the Caitlin Clark and Sophie Cunningham incidents over the last several months. The clear racialization of the league is obvious.

Here you have the only time in its entire history that the WNBA has been remotely close to something like popular and successful. And it's just being squandered top to bottom. And then this. I don't know if it can survive. I don't know if it's going to. it's going to last. It's certainly not going to last if they don't settle this issue because you will have. Listen, you can take any team right now out of the G League, the NBA Developmental League. You can take them and put them in the WNBA and they will win the championship hands down and it won't be close. And the challenge is in the G League, they don't get paid that much. WNBA players get more than G League players get paid. All this kind of falls into the category of treating something like a speed limit that's actually gravity. You might decide that gravity is negotiable, but when you step off the roof, you still hit the ground. And you may decide that something like this is negotiable, but then when you put it to the test of the real world, then there are consequences. So I think it's unavoidable. Eventually, it's going to have to get worked out, I guess.

REICHARD: One of the nation's largest public universities is trying something new with freshmen next year. The University of Michigan will let some first-semester students take classes without traditional letter grades. Instead of an A, B, C, or D, their transcripts will just say pass or no credit. (That according to a Wall Street Journal article.)

The university says the goal is to ease up on mental pressure, to help them adjust to college, and encourage intrinsic motivation to guide academic journeys that are personally meaningful.

I have no idea what that means.

Similar programs already exist at other colleges–prestigious ones at that–sometimes as a way to deal with students they describe as unprepared.

John, some might call this coddling. But I wonder…is something deeper going on? Is this a particular worldview about what education is really for?

STONESTEET: Well, that's a good question. I don't think there's anything sacred about the ABCD, you know, system and it has its own problems having been someone who administered it. But of course, that's not really what's at question here. This isn't as much a move away from a system because there's a better one in place. This is a move that owes itself really to an ideological shift. Basically it seems and it sounds, at least according to that paragraph you read, that I certainly have no idea what it means either, that this is a kind of an expression of what happens with this kind of internal turn. that so much of the world has taken where truth and meaning and purpose is to be found inside.

Now, of course, that's long been the message of Disney movies and pop culture and other things, self-help and opinion pieces in magazines. But if you really do believe that, if you really do believe that meaning is something that has to be made and truth is something that has to be constructed and identity is something that has to be found internally without any extrinsic reference point, then if that philosophy then is going to impact what we think about education, then this kind of a move makes perfect sense, I guess. That, you know, really all you want to do is ensure that a student has had some kind of, quote unquote, authentic academic journey that is personally meaningful, I guess. It's easy to make fun of. You know, I want to give a shout out here. I was having this conversation with our editorial team at the Colson Center. And one of our colleagues, you know, brought up Harvey Mansfield, who taught for years at Harvard University and was known for speaking out against great inflation all the way decades ago. And he was known as C-plus Manfield or something like that because he was so commonly giving out lower grades. And that's something that apparently is very... you know, psychologically hard on a fragile generation. And so, look, I think we'll see the consequences of this sort of coddling down the road. It is a coddling, but it's a coddling that's based on an ideology, I think. And it's an ideology that we've seen everywhere else. So it makes sense then that it would reshape how we evaluate and how we measure learning.

BROWN: John Stonestreet is president of the Colson Center and Host of the Breakpoint podcast. Thanks John.

STONESTREET: Thank you both.

MARY REICHARD, HOST: Today is Friday, August 14th.

Thank you for turning to WORLD Radio to help start your day.

Good morning. I’m Mary Reichard.

MYRNA BROWN, HOST: And I’m Myrna Brown.

Coming next on The World and Everything in It: a new historical political drama about Ronald Reagan hits theaters this weekend. It’s called The Brink of War.

Film critic Joseph Holmes now with his thoughts.

JOSEPH HOLMES: I think it’s fair to say that Hollywood tends to have a double standard when it comes to depicting modern U.S. presidents. Democratic presidents like JFK and FDR tend to get to play bipartisan American heroes. Republican presidents, on the other hand, are overwhelmingly villains or jokes—like in Frost/Nixon or Vice. But independent studios have started to change that, with movies like 2024’s Reagan starring Dennis Quaid and now The Brink of War by Angel Studios, starring Jeff Daniels.

SHULTZ: President Reagan, you got us here, Sir. You got the Russians to the table. Gorbachev came to play. But if we fail here, there will be war.

In this film, it’s 1986 and the United States and the Soviet Union are in the midst of a Cold War, with thousands of nuclear missiles aimed at each other. President Reagan and Soviet General Secretary Mikhail Gorbachev meet in Iceland in a last-ditch effort to stave off nuclear armageddon. But as pressure mounts and distrust threatens to undermine their peace talks, both leaders have to decide how far they’re willing to go to prevent the end of the world.

SHULTZ: I never thought I’d see the controls for 70 thousand nuclear weapons in the same room.

REAGAN: Here we are, the two of us, deciding whether there will be peace, or war, in the world.

There’s a lot to like about The Brink of War. It’s an old-school political drama with snappy, intellectual dialogue and great performances by veteran actors like JK Simmons, Jared Harris, and—of course—Jeff Daniels as Reagan. The isolated location and minimalist, sometimes documentary-esque aesthetic give a claustrophobic and tense atmosphere to what is essentially a two-hour verbal spar. The characters feel fleshed out, and the dialogue balances exposition, banter, and conflict without losing sight of the larger themes. Harris as Gorbachev sells both formidability and vulnerability rather than leaning on evil Russian stereotypes. Daniels effortlessly juggles a disarming likeability, stately stubbornness, and a tortured moral core. The Dennis Quaid film tried to capture all of Reagan’s life and legacy and therefore spread itself too thin. But The Brink of War felt like it touched on everything that made Reagan such an icon–for fans and foes alike–while zooming in on one climactic moment of his presidency.

GORBACHEV: You see, Mr. President, you’re not the only one with public opinion problems. We both must answer to the people.

REAGAN: Yes, but my people–if they criticize me publicly don’t get sent to the Gulag.

GORBACHEV: True. And my people can’t shoot me.

It’s also frankly refreshing how well the filmmakers break down the American and Soviet ideologies and aren’t ashamed to root for the American one. Often modern Hollywood depictions of the Cold War gloss over the different worldviews or morally equivocate the two. But The Brink of War really puts the viewer inside the head of those who opposed the Soviet Union and shows that they did so in favor of the faith, family, and freedom traditions in America. It’s cathartic for those who are annoyed at how those American values are often given to Hollywood villains.

GORBACHEV: How do you expect my people to trust you?

REAGAN: The United States will remain strong. We can strike you first with impunity.

GORBACHEV: We will strike as well.

The film isn’t perfect. The dialogue does sometimes slide into sermonizing. The fact that the American characters seem to come out on top of nearly every interaction sucks some of the tension out of the story and makes the film feel more like propaganda than drama. And the final twist ending revealing Reagan’s true plan feels rushed and emotionally unearned.

GORBACHEV: We are a strong people. And we have learned that strength is how you win a war.

REAGAN: We’re not trying to win a war. We’re trying to end one.

In the end, The Brink of War is a solid old-fashioned political drama that represents people and ideas that don’t always get this cinematic treatment. With a couple more drafts, it might have been something more. But for fans of the people and events depicted, it’s a meeting they likely won’t want to miss.

I’m Joseph Holmes.

MARY REICHARD, HOST: Good morning! This is The World and Everything in It from listener-supported WORLD Radio. I’m Mary Reichard.

MYRNA BROWN, HOST: And I’m Myrna Brown.

Next up: Doubletake is back tomorrow with the first of a three-part series. It’s called “The kidnapping of Kayla Mueller.”

It’s about a young American aid worker from Prescott, Arizona. In August of 2013 she crossed the border from Turkey into Syria with a friend. On their way back, ISIS militants stopped their truck. At the time, the Islamic terror group controlled much of Syria and had its sights set on a worldwide caliphate.

Rod Safar Jalany was working with Doctors Without Borders at the time.

JALANY: A van came and cut off the road. Between six to seven armed and masked people forced us to leave the car and go with them to their car. … I was very terrified. The first thing that came to my mind was this was a mistake.

REICHARD: Kayla was one of four Americans held for ransom in that period by the so-called ISIS Beatles. Kayla would eventually be forced to marry the leader of ISIS, Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi. For Carl and Marsha Mueller, Kayla’s parents, this is an ordeal that has never really ended.

BROWN: WORLD’s Jenny Rough spent over two years reporting this story, and even interviewed people who were held captive with Kayla in Syria. Doubletake host Les Sillars sat down with Jenny recently to talk about this story, and what she learned.

LES SILLARS: So, Jenny, how did this story come onto your radar?

JENNY ROUGH: I have a friend, a really good friend, who is from Prescott, Arizona … and we were just on the phone one day, and she said, "Did you ever read that letter from Kayla Mueller?” This was a letter that Kayla had written while she was imprisoned by ISIS, and another hostage who was being released, had kind of slipped it out. … but I went back after that conversation, I read the letter and I was just struck, I mean, the first thought that went through my mind was this reminds me of something the Apostle Paul wrote when he was imprisoned … Kayla was talking about even in prison I'm free. She surrendered herself to her Creator. She wasn't writing her parents pray for me, pray that I get released, pray for my well-being … She was praying for them. It just really touched me and my friend said you really should write this story.

SILLARS: Today is August 14th. What's the significance of this date?

ROUGH: It is Kayla's birthday. So she would have been 38 today. She was killed when she was 26. And this date is particularly meaningful not just because it’s Kayla’s birthday but because when … U.S. forces raided Baghdadi's compound and captured him and killed him, they named the operation, or they named the task force, Task Force 814, after Kayla's birthday.

SILLARS: As you got to know Kayla, what struck you most about her?

ROUGH: See, that question brings tears to my eyes. I don't know why. I just I read that letter. I connected with her parents, and I just found myself thinking of her story all the time. … I just just wanted to learn all about her. Just from a very young age, she wanted to go out in the world, out into the world, and help people.

SILLARS: In hindsight, it maybe looks a little foolish or perhaps naive as a young American female aid worker to go into Syria. Was that the case?

ROUGH: ISIS just wasn't on anyone's radar at the time, certainly not in Syria. … I mean, she was young and idealistic, I guess. But she even wrote about that to her parents. She wrote about, you know, the importance of preserving justice and bringing liberty and freedom to oppressed people and why is that idealism to want to pursue that?

SILLARS: We're headlining this podcast series, "The Kidnapping of Kayla Mueller,” but in a sense, it's not exactly all about Kayla Mueller, is it? Who is this story also about and why?

ROUGH: Yeah, that came to my attention pretty early on when I realized this story is really about Marsha and Carl Mueller, her parents. Marsha grew up in the Church of the Nazarene. Carl's dad or grandfather, I think, was a Lutheran minister. As a Christian family and as a Christian couple, their daughter is kidnapped. They're trying to negotiate with ISIS terrorists to bring her home and  negotiate with God. And how do you navigate your faith? This just seemed to be such an extreme evil to me. To be captured by these terrorists, to be held in a hostage cell, to be sold off to ISIS's founder and leader, where she was raped and threatened to be killed, and eventually was killed. And her parents are trying to hang on to their faith and reading the Bible. I remember at one point Marcia was like, "I see ISIS everywhere.”

She was reading the Old Testament and the wars and the killings and the capturings and reading the Book of Job and the Psalms. Just Carl describing dropping to his knees behind his truck, just praying and begging for Kayla's release, and so … this story is really their story. Obviously, a huge portion of it is about Kayla and what happened, but it's really how they navigated their faith and how they didn't lose it through this process.

SILLARS: Well, it's a terrific story, Jenny. Thank you for telling it, and we look forward to putting it out tomorrow.

ROUGH: It was great to be able to tell it. Thank you so much.

The World and Everything in It comes to you from WORLD Radio. WORLD’s mission is biblically objective journalism that informs, educates, and inspires.

The Bible says, “Have this mind among yourselves, which is yours in Christ Jesus, who, though he was in the form of God, did not count equality with God a thing to be grasped, but emptied himself, by taking the form of a servant, being born in the likeness of men. And being found in human form, he humbled himself by becoming obedient to the point of death, even death on a cross. Therefore God has highly exalted him and bestowed on him the name that is above every name, so that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.” —Philippians 2:5–11

Be sure and worship with your brothers and sisters in Christ in church this weekend. And we’ll be sure to meet you back here on Monday.
