  • Making Contact – Making Contact – Making Contact: Is Southeast Louisiana Doomed? [Encore]
    Sep 18 2026
    A study published in May in the journal Nature Sustainability reports that the shoreline could eventually sit some 30 miles north of New Orleans. The finding does not come from a model. The authors dated a buried ridge north of the city and identified it as a shoreline from the last interglacial period, the last time global temperatures were about where they are now. Three quarters of Louisiana’s remaining coastal wetlands are projected to be gone or going by around 2070. Two river diversion projects meant to rebuild that land broke ground and were canceled. This week we ask what preparing actually looks like, and who gets to do it. Our guests describe a slow, generational shift inland rather than a sudden evacuation, and they push back on the idea that the people who stay are refusing to face facts. Insurance pricing, not scientific consensus, is how most people first learn what their home is worth in a warming Gulf. And in one researcher’s surveys, most residents who say they would relocate if flooding worsened also say they want to stay in the same parish. Notes: Making Contact is an award-winning, nationally syndicated radio show and podcast featuring narrative storytelling and thought-provoking interviews. We cover the most urgent issues of our time and the people on the ground building a more just world Covering the movements, issues and people fighting for some of the most important social justice issues of our time. Hosted by Amy Gastelum, Salima Hamirani, Anita Jonhson, and Lucy Kang.

  • Making Contact – Modern Parenting…The Latino Way (Encore)
    Sep 4 2026
    How do you decide what kind of parent you want to be? Liz Rebecca Alarcn and Maribel Quezada Smith of the Pulso Podcast, now In Confianza with Pulso, talk about raising their kids as Latinas in the US: the language, the food, the village, the both-last-names. They also talk about what they are not passing on, from machismo to la chancla. In the second half, Liz sits down with Latinx parenting coach Leslie Priscilla, whose practice is rooted in children’s rights and decolonization. Priscilla traces punishment and fear in Latino families back five hundred years, and argues that refusing to parent that way is a political act. This episode originally aired in October 2023. Featuring: Liz Rebecca Alarcn, founder and executive director, Pulso; Maribel Quezada Smith, founder of Diferente Creative and host of Diferente; Leslie Priscilla, founder, Latinx Parenting Covering the movements, issues and people fighting for some of the most important social justice issues of our time. Hosted by Amy Gastelum, Salima Hamirani, Anita Jonhson, and Lucy Kang.
