Critical minerals sit at the intersection of energy technology, industrial competitiveness, and economic resilience. The issue has hit a fever pitch in the United States, driving the Trump administration to establish a $12 billion Strategic Critical Minerals Reserve and take other steps to support domestic mining projects. More broadly, G7 countries recently agreed to step up coordination to cut their countries' reliance on China for critical minerals. All of these moves are targeted at breaking China's stronghold on the sector, which it built over decades as the US largely turned away from securing a critical mineral supply chain. And it's not just about supply dominance, China is also using its strengths in the sector as a geopolitical weapon. Yet, questions remain over whether US investments to date, or international agreements, are stoking the level of private investment needed to compete with China. So what financial models could provide effective blueprints for quickly scaling mineral supply? Which countries are pursuing the most promising approaches? And looking beyond investments, what policy tools could help the US and its allies grow a resilient critical minerals supply chain?  Today on the show, Bill Loveless speaks to Tom Moerenhout and Tomasz Nadrowski about what it takes to build mineral supply chains as strategic infrastructure and how targeted financial instruments could lower risks for investors. Tom Moerenhout leads the Critical Materials Initiative at the Center on Global Energy Policy and is a professor at Columbia University's School of International and Public Affairs. Recently, he and other scholars at the center contributed to a new World Economic Forum report called "Making Critical Minerals Bankable: Policy Tools to Unlock Investment." Tomasz Nadrowski is the co-founder and portfolio manager at Amvest Terraden, where he invests in exploration, development and mining companies that are focused on strategic minerals. He has 25 years of mining sector investment experience. He is also the author of the recently published book Mineral War: China's Quest for Weapons of Mass Destruction.

Martha Hall Findlay, director of the University of Calgary's School of Public Policy and one of the original architects of the Pathways carbon capture proposal, explains why she believes the project should have been postponed despite the recent agreement between Ottawa, Alberta, and the five oilsands companies behind it. Yet if that compromise is the political price of securing a new West Coast pipeline, she argues it may ultimately be worth it. Hall Findlay also discusses the corporate incentives that may still be needed to spur new oilsands investment, the politics of so-called corporate welfare, potential opposition within the Liberal Party, and whether Canadians can be persuaded to support the “grand bargain.”This podcast is generously supported by Don Archibald.

Eric welcomes back friend of the show Professor Hal Brands, the Henry A. Kissinger Distinguished Professor of Global Studies at Johns Hopkins University's School of Advanced International Studies. The two discuss Hal's recent work, beginning with his column in Bloomberg dissecting the key strategic errors that Trump has made in the ongoing war with Iran. Hal then breaks down his recent essay with Michael Beckley in Foreign Affairs, which examines global conflict through the lens of "heartland" and "rimland" coalitions. Finally, they turn to Hal's latest edited volume which brings together essays by a large group of scholars considering the many ways that AI may change the nature of international affairs, the conduct of war, and global order. Hal Brands' latest in Bloomberg:https://www.aei.org/op-eds/trumps-iran-blunder-shows-strategy-can-defeat-firepower/Hal Brands & Michael Beckley's latest in Foreign Affairs:https://www.foreignaffairs.com/china/heartland-vs-rimland-beckley-brandsThe Geopolitics of AI: Power, Conflict, and the Future of Global Order:Free PDF via Johns Hopkins University Press Hard copy via AmazonShield of the Republic is a Bulwark podcast co-sponsored by the Miller Center of Public Affairs at the University of Virginia.

In this divided moment, we are being actively encouraged to make enemies of one another. To resist these forces, we need to cultivate kindness.  Loving kindness is a simple but powerful evidenced-backed practice that helps us hold our own views and values, yet still honor the perspectives of others… even those with whom we disagree. Leading us through this practice is  Dr. Brad Strawn, licensed psychologist, ordained minister and one of the leading figures in the integration of psychology and Christian theology in the US. Don't miss my full interview with Dr. Strawn.   Here today we have a simple practice that takes 5 minutes and you can practice any time you need to ground yourself and foster a sense of compassion with others. And you can count on it to change your brain.   Come on over to my Substack this week, With & For by Dr. Pam King, where I'm asking you to share a surprising moment that you experienced unexpected kindness from a stranger or even someone you were at odds with.  With & For is a podcast of the Thrive Center, an applied research center that exists to catalyze a movement of human thriving, with and for others through spiritual health.

James Dumoulin built one of the biggest interview brands on the internet by walking up to strangers and asking how much money they make.He co-founded School of Hard Knocks in 2021 with his brother Jack and friend Joshua Smith. The early channel gave business advice and stalled around 25,000 followers. So James flipped the format. He started cold-approaching millionaires and billionaires on the street, pointed the camera at them, and let them talk. His 2022 Mark Cuban interview changed everything.Today School of Hard Knocks reaches more than 17 million followers and over 4 billion views across TikTok, Instagram, and YouTube. The clips run under five minutes. The business behind them runs on four engines: ad revenue, brand partnerships, high-ticket consulting, and School of Mentors, a paid community of nearly 6,000 entrepreneurs. In August 2025, James reported his biggest month yet, with 700,000 dollars in revenue and 400,000 in profit. At 23, he became a millionaire and put his first major check into a 200-unit apartment complex in Texas.In this conversation, we cover the pivot, the real hit rate on cold approaches, the money behind the views, and what hundreds of interviews with the wealthy taught him about building wealth of his own.Follow James and School of Hard Knocks: TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@theschoolofhardknocks Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/realjamesdumoulin/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@theschoolofhardknocksSupport the show

We tend to spend a good portion of our lives experiencing times of trials, which means we need to expect them. We also need to understand that God uses them to accomplish His purposes in us. We can trust, that what He promises He will do through them in us, He will. The trials and tests God allows, can cause our faith to grow, become stronger and reveal to others that He is the One True Glorious God! By Dave Bartlett

Send in your music story!Some movies are unforgettable because of the plot. Others because of the songs. The real all-timers are the ones where the music and the story become the same thing, and that is exactly the argument we get into while ranking the top 10 greatest movie soundtracks of all time.We kick things off with real-life chaos and quick hits from the music world, including Michelle Branch returning with a new album and tour, plus a wild stat showing vinyl and vintage music players are surging again. We talk about why physical media is back, how collectors think about value, and what actually matters if you want a record player setup that sounds good without wrecking your records.From there, the mood turns heartfelt as we remember Sam Neill and what Jurassic Park meant to a whole generation. Then we swing back to music discovery, picking “Creep” by Radiohead as song of the week and trading the movie moments that introduced us to songs we still love. Finally, we debate the list itself: Footloose, Tarzan, 8 Mile, Purple Rain, School of Rock, American Pie, Shrek 2, Guardians of the Galaxy, and why Almost Famous ends up wearing the crown.Hit play, then tell us your all-time number one movie soundtrack.

China is an active advocate and practitioner of global governance in artificial intelligence, committed to ensuring that the benefits of AI are shared more broadly and equitably among people around the world, experts said.专家表示，中国是人工智能全球治理的积极倡导者和践行者，致力于让人工智能发展成果更广泛、更公平地惠及世界各国人民。Guided by the principles of multilateralism, openness and inclusiveness, China works to build the broadest possible international consensus on AI governance and contributes Chinese solutions to advancing global development in the age of intelligence, they said.专家们说，中国秉持多边主义、开放包容的原则，努力凝聚人工智能治理领域最广泛的国际共识，为推动智能时代全球发展贡献中国方案。Speaking in Shanghai at the opening ceremony of the 2026 World AI Conference and High-Level Meeting on Global AI Governance, President Xi Jinping called for joint efforts to build a just and equitable system for global AI governance.国家主席习近平在上海出席2026世界人工智能大会暨全球人工智能治理高级别会议开幕式并发表讲话，呼吁各方共同努力，构建公正合理的全球人工智能治理体系。"All countries should take a people-centered approach and develop AI for the positive and for good. We should ensure that AI is an important driver for shared prosperity and common security," Xi said.习近平表示："各国应坚持以人为本，推动人工智能向善发展，确保人工智能成为促进共同繁荣与普遍安全的重要力量。"In his keynote speech, Xi stressed the need for adhering to the principles of openness and win-win and boosting innovation-driven development.习近平在主旨演讲中强调，要坚持开放合作、互利共赢，加快创新驱动发展。He called for strengthening risk awareness, ensuring that AI is secure and controllable, encouraging inclusiveness, promoting mutual learning between civilizations, advocating solidarity and improving global governance.他呼吁增强风险意识，确保人工智能安全可控，倡导包容普惠，促进文明互鉴，弘扬团结协作精神，完善全球治理。Gordon K'achola, founder and CEO of the Africa Center for Diplomatic Affairs, highlighted that China has promised to help developing countries build their own AI know-how.非洲外交事务中心创始人兼首席执行官戈登·卡乔拉指出，中国已承诺帮助发展中国家建立自主人工智能技术能力。"For Africa and the broader Global South, the goal isn't just getting the latest tech. It's about building the capacity to create and control their own AI writing algorithms, growing research centers, and strengthening local institutions," he said.他表示："对非洲和更广泛的全球南方国家而言，目标不仅仅是获得最新技术，更在于培养自主研发和掌控人工智能算法的能力，壮大本地研究中心，加强本土机构建设。"Xi said that China will develop international AI application cooperation centers with the Association of Southeast Asian Nations, the League of Arab States, the African Union, the Community of Latin American and Caribbean States, the Shanghai Cooperation Organization and BRICS.习近平表示，中国将与东盟、阿盟、非盟、拉共体、上海合作组织、金砖国家共同建设人工智能应用国际合作中心。Furthermore, China will promote the deployment of MAZU, an AI-powered meteorological early-warning solution, in 30 countries, he said.他还表示，中国将推动人工智能气象预警方案"妈祖"在30个国家落地应用。Philip Okello, principal meteorologist at the Kenya Meteorology Service, noted that China has made significant advances in meteorological forecasting, satellite observation and early warning of disasters, adding that deeper cooperation in these areas could help enhance Africa's forecasting capabilities and strengthen its resilience to climate change.肯尼亚气象局首席气象学家菲利普·奥凯洛指出，中国在气象预报、卫星观测和灾害预警等领域取得显著进展，他补充说，在这些领域深化合作将有助于提升非洲的预报能力，增强其应对气候变化的韧性。"President Xi's speech is timely because climate change is no longer a future risk; it is a present-day reality that is affecting countries across the globe," he said.他说："习近平主席的讲话恰逢其时，因为气候变化已不再是未来的风险，而是正在影响全球各国的现实挑战。"Okello also said that Xi's emphasis on strengthening meteorological science, innovation and international cooperation "aligns closely with what Africa needs to better prepare for increasingly frequent droughts, floods and extreme weather events".奥凯洛还表示，习近平强调加强气象科学研究、创新与国际合作，这与非洲应对日益频发的干旱、洪涝和极端天气事件、提升防范能力的需求高度契合。Xi also announced the establishment of the World Artificial Intelligence Cooperation Organization, whose headquarters will be in Shanghai, as "a major move by China to answer the call of the Global South and unite the international community" to vigorously promote AI development and governance.习近平还宣布成立总部设在上海的世界人工智能合作组织，称这是"中国响应全球南方国家呼声、凝聚国际社会共识"、大力推动人工智能发展与治理的重大举措。Maria Sun, co-chair of the FIRA RoboWorld Cup 2026, said the rapid development of AI has brought new challenges, underscoring the need for stronger international cooperation to address them collectively.2026世界机器人足球锦标赛联合主席玛丽亚·孙表示，人工智能的快速发展带来了新的挑战，凸显出加强国际合作、共同应对这些挑战的必要性。"China's efforts to promote AI cooperation with developing countries are very encouraging. International exchanges like these help bring more countries into the AI era," she said.她说："中国致力于推动与发展中国家的人工智能合作，这非常令人鼓舞。此类国际交流有助于让更多国家融入人工智能时代。""China has maintained an open approach to AI development, and that will contribute significantly to technological progress worldwide. Today, China is one of the global leaders in AI, and its continued openness will help drive innovation and international cooperation," Sun added.孙补充说："中国在人工智能发展上始终秉持开放态度，这将为全球科技进步作出重要贡献。当今，中国已成为全球人工智能领域的领军者之一，其持续开放的姿态将有助于推动创新与国际合作。"Humprey Arnaldo Russel, head of the ASEAN-China Research Center at the University of Indonesia, said that AI creates transnational challenges involving safety, ethics, misuse, technical standards, regulatory fragmentation, and widening digital and governance divides.印度尼西亚大学东盟-中国研究中心主任汉弗雷·阿纳尔多·拉塞尔表示，人工智能带来了涉及安全、伦理、滥用、技术标准、监管碎片化以及数字和治理鸿沟扩大等跨国性挑战。He said that the Global AI Governance Initiative, put forward by President Xi in 2023, advances global AI governance through solidarity and multilateral cooperation, which requires the greatest attention from the international community.他表示，习近平主席于2023年提出的《全球人工智能治理倡议》，通过团结协作与多边合作推动全球人工智能治理，这需要国际社会给予高度关注。"The proposal is especially important for the Global South, whose interests remain underrepresented in global technology governance. A broadly accepted, United Nations-centered framework could strengthen developing countries' participation (in global AI governance) while respecting different national conditions," he added.他补充说："这一倡议对全球南方国家尤为重要，因为它们的利益在全球科技治理中长期代表性不足。一个得到广泛认可、以联合国为中心的框架，既能尊重各国不同国情，又能加强发展中国家在（全球人工智能治理）中的参与。"David Tuffley, an adjunct senior lecturer at Griffith University's School of Information and Communication Technology in Australia, said the people-centered approach seeks to address a major challenge in AI governance: ensuring that the benefits of the technology are shared broadly rather than remaining concentrated in the hands of a few.澳大利亚格里菲斯大学信息与通信技术学院客座高级讲师戴维·塔夫利表示，"以人为本"的理念旨在应对人工智能治理中的一大挑战，即确保技术发展成果得到广泛共享，而非被少数人垄断。President Xi's speech highlighted China's commitment to promoting global AI governance and the development of international norms, he noted.他指出，习近平主席的讲话彰显了中国致力于推动全球人工智能治理和国际规则制定的坚定承诺。Tuffley also said that for the international community, particularly developing countries, the commitment to capacity building and greater access to computing power is especially significant, as much of the world's population currently has little voice in shaping the rules that govern AI.塔夫利还表示，对国际社会尤其是发展中国家而言，加强能力建设、扩大算力获取渠道的承诺意义尤为重大，因为当前全球相当一部分人口在人工智能规则制定中话语权十分有限。"Australia and China share an interest in AI safety research, in standards for evaluating frontier systems, and in ensuring AI serves rather than displaces human judgment in critical domains such as healthcare and education," he said.他说："澳大利亚与中国在人工智能安全研究、前沿系统评估标准，以及确保人工智能在医疗、教育等关键领域服务于人类判断而非取代人类判断等方面，拥有共同利益。"practitioner /prækˈtɪʃənər/ n.实践者，践行者equitably /ˈekwɪtəbli/ adv.公平地multilateralism /ˌmʌltiˈlætərəlɪzəm/ n.多边主义inclusiveness /ɪnˈkluːsɪvnəs/ n.包容性fragmentation /ˌfrægmenˈteɪʃən/ n.碎片化underrepresented /ˌʌndərˌreprɪˈzentɪd/ adj.代表性不足的adjunct /ˈædʒʌŋkt/ adj.兼任的，客座的frontier /ˈfrʌntɪr/ n.前沿

Too many young people are getting a "desiccated" education – narrow, information-transfer schooling optimised for exams. In this episode, James and David are joined by Liz Robinson and Sarah Seleznyov of Big Education – the "feisty little multi-academy trust" behind School 21, School 360 and Surrey Square – to make the case for something bigger: an education of the head (academic learning), heart (wellbeing and relationships) and hand (creativity and skills). The conversation centres on the new book from the Rethinking School project, A Practical Guide to a Big Education: Balancing Head, Heart and Hand, edited by Sarah Seleznyov and Robert Lobatto – a collection of chapters written by school leaders and teachers who are actually doing this work, each paired with a vignette from another school and reflective questions to help you find your own way in. Not a recipe book, but an invitation to be a little bit braver. In this episode we explore: -Why pedagogy was written out of the Curriculum and Assessment Review – and why curriculum, pedagogy and assessment have to change together ("if you only pull one string in the marionette, it jerks") -England's uniquely narrow definition of curriculum and learning – and how it compares with models from around the world -What Big Education is, and what an education of the head, heart and hand actually means -The Milburn report on youth unemployment – and why the problems start in Year 1, not at upper secondary -Liz's "soapbox rant": Every Child Matters, extended schools, co-located services – and what was lost when it was all set on fire -Think systemically, act systematically: systems thinking, design thinking and vertical slice change teams Authentic leadership: vulnerability, ego, the kelp metaphor – and why Liz is learning to bring "Lizzie" to work -Being evidence-informed: why data is richer than numbers, the trouble with RCTs and the EEF toolkit, and engaging with research and in research -Interdisciplinary project-based learning – and the jaw-dropping story of the Ofsted inspector who withheld 'outstanding' because children didn't know their learning was called history -Can we teach and assess transferable competencies? And do we have to trade exam results for a broader education? (Spoiler: no) -Lessons from curriculum reform in Scotland, Wales and British Columbia – why transforming practice takes time, investment and serious professional development -Why we need revolution, not evolution About the guests Liz Robinson is co-founder and CEO of Big Education. She became a headteacher at 29, leading Surrey Square Primary in south London for many years, and created the Big Leadership Adventure. She advocates for – and models – an authentic, reflective and relational approach to leadership. Sarah Seleznyov is Strategic Project Lead at Big Education and leads the Rethinking School project. She has worked in London schools for over 25 years as a deputy head, school improvement consultant and teaching school director, and previously led research-informed leadership programmes at the UCL Institute of Education. Her research specialism is Japanese lesson study.

As we count down to Friday's release of Heaven Is Full of Criminals, I want to introduce you to the people who helped bring this song to life.Today's spotlight is on my friend, Craig Adams.Craig and I go back more than a few decades. He produced my album Hymns, Prayers, and Invitations ten years ago, and I've admired both his musicianship and his character ever since.Today, Craig serves as the executive director of the Center for Commercial Music in the School of Music and Worship Arts at Trevecca Nazarene University in Nashville, but no matter how accomplished he becomes, he's remained one of the kindest, most generous people I've ever had the privilege of working with.On Heaven Is Full of Criminals, Craig contributed the beautiful background vocals, keyboards, and percussion that help give the song so much warmth and depth. His instinct is always to serve the song rather than himself, and that's one of the things I admire most about him as a musician and producer.There are people whose talent is obvious the moment you hear them. Craig is one of those people. But what makes him truly special is that his humility is every bit as remarkable as his ability.Quite honestly, this song would not be what it is without him.Thank you, Craig, for lending your gifts to this recording and for being such a faithful friend over the years.Heaven Is Full of Criminals releases this Friday. I can't wait for you to hear the beautiful work Craig helped create.Spotify Pre-Save · https://show.co/sOrc2zb This is a public episode.

In this episode of the Breakfast Leadership Show, I sit down with Tom Vorselen, founder of The Study Coach, to tackle a topic that impacts every leader, professional, and lifelong learner: why we were never actually taught how to learn. We unpack the hidden flaws in traditional education, why so many high-achievers struggle with certifications and new skills, and what science really says about improving memory and retention. Tom shares practical, research-backed strategies that can boost retention by up to 150%, break the cycle of procrastination, and help you rebuild confidence if learning has ever felt overwhelming. We also dive into the role of AI in education—where it helps, where it hurts, and how to use it wisely. If you're a working professional balancing growth with a busy life, this conversation is packed with insights you can apply immediately.

Learn how the skills you use every day can have an impact far beyond the walls of your school.

Border Afterlives: Migrant Deaths, Forensic Investigations, and the Politics of Haunting (University of Arizona Press, 2026) begins with the undocumented individuals who die crossing the U.S.-Mexico border—deaths that are both preventable and politically produced. Moving between the practical and the philosophical, forensic anthropologist and author Gabriella Soto asks what it means to care for the dead and what society owes to those who die in its name. Through the lens of haunting, she explores how the dead continue to shape the living, not as objects of horror but as moral agents whose presence demands justice. Centered primarily in Arizona and South Texas, Border Afterlives offers a border-scale comparative account of forensic practices, critiques the limits of “best practices” in under-resourced systems, and calls for a re-imagining of forensic humanitarianism grounded in reciprocity and dignity, beyond human rights. This is a book that insists on remembering the dead. In this conversation, we discuss the difficult interplay between federal immigration policy and local practices of death care on the border, the implications of policies that cause increased death tolls, the politics of humanitarian immigration reform, and, finally, how allowing ourselves to be haunted by the slow mass casualties of the border can and should inspire us to act. Gabriella Soto is a contemporary archaeologist who examines the material world to understand pressing social issues. Integrating ethnographic methods, GIS technology, and archival research, she specializes in migration materialities, focusing on Latinx migration and security at the US-Mexico border. Her work analyzes the material footprints of transit, forensic death investigations, and security and humanitarian infrastructure. An ACLS fellow whose work has also been funded by the Wenner-Gren Foundation, Soto is a research affiliate at the Binational Migration Institute and holds faculty affiliations at Arizona State University's School of Transborder Studies, School of Interdisciplinary Forensics, and the Latinx Oral History Lab. Her research has appeared in American Anthropologist and Political Geography, and her article on migrant material culture won the American Anthropological Association's Gordon R. Willey Paper Prize.
