Patrick K. O'Donnell introduces Captain John Charles Carpenter and the Jesse Scouts, a Union special forces group named after Jesse Frémont. Emerging from the Missouri insurgency, these scouts utilized 21st-century tradecraft such as disguises and infiltration to gather intelligence behind enemy lines. Simultaneously, the Confederacy enacted the Partisan Ranger Act to organize irregular fighters like John Singleton Mosby. Operating in "Mosby's Confederacy," these rangers conducted asymmetrical warfare that tied down thousands of Union troops. Both sides grappled with the lack of discipline in these units, yet recognized their strategic brilliance in modern irregular combat. (1)1863
In 2024, The New York Times Book Review gathered more than 500 novelists, nonfiction writers, poets and literary enthusiasts to help pick the best books of the 21st century so far. One of those books was Cormac McCarthy's Pulitzer Prize-winning novel, “The Road,” which came in at No. 13. That book tells the story of a man and his young son trying to survive in a postapocalyptic United States. Like other books by McCarthy, it combines ornate prose with moments of unforgettable violence. It is also a moving story of love and parenthood under the most extreme circumstances. One of the people who voted on our best books list was Ryan Holiday, author of more than a dozen nonfiction books, host of the “Daily Stoic” podcast and owner of the Painted Porch Bookshop in Bastrop, Texas. We recently invited him on the “Book Review” podcast to talk about “The Road,” and how its meaning changed for him after he became a father. Books Discussed on This Episode: “The Road” by Cormac McCarthy “No Country for Old Men” by Cormac McCarthy “All the Pretty Horses” by Cormac McCarthy “Blood Meridian” by Cormac McCarthy “The Odyssey” by Homer “The Great Gatsby” by F. Scott Fitzgerald “The Children of Men” by P. D. James “The Plague” by Albert Camus “Revolutionary Road” by Richard Yates “Meditations” by Marcus Aurelius “Of Boys and Men” by Richard Reeves “Outdoor Kids in an Inside World” by Steven Rinella “Letter to His Father” by Franz Kafka “Range” by David Epstein “Good Inside” by Becky Kennedy “Wild Dark Shore” by Charlotte McConaghy “Death Be Not Proud” by John Gunther “The Revenant” by Michael Punke Subscribe today at nytimes.com/podcasts or on Apple Podcasts and Spotify.

The milkman model is simple. Bottles are filled, dropped off, emptied and picked up over and over again. That system got a Canadian entrepreneur thinking. In this day and age of mountains of plastic waste — why not re-use containers? His system, called Loop, was launched in 2019 at Davos Switzerland — to great fanfare. Environmentalists welcomed it and big corporations signed on to be part of the re-use movement. This documentary explores what happened to that grand plan and why North American consumers and companies aren't ready for a 21st century milkman model.
Another risk on the rise, entitlement can affect children personally and, if unchecked, will eventually affect how they view themselves, other people, and their relationships.

Childhood disability in the 21st Century: Out of the shadows with the world health organisation and some ‘F-words' (Public lecture)What a wonderful way to start this conference.

What does it actually take to build a responsible company? Mot just a company with a sustainability department, but one where corporate citizenship is woven into strategy, operations, and culture? That's the question Dave Stangis and Katherine Valvoda Smith set out to answer nearly a decade ago, and it's the question at the heart of this conversation.Dave and Katherine join Marcy for the first episode of Table Stakes' "Read Responsibly" book series to talk about 21st Century Corporate Citizenship: A Practical Guide to Delivering Value to Society and Your Business — what inspired it, how it's held up across a decade of political and cultural turbulence, and what they'd add if they wrote it today. They also dig into the war over ESG terminology, the quiet disappearance of the word "ethics" from corporate vocabulary, and why the money in publishing a book is never actually in the book.

John Wayne and Stew count down their Top 25 Films of the last 25 years.
On this episode, we dive into a loaded MLB and NBA slate packed with hot takes, blockbuster trade ideas, and player debates. Josh opens with a True or False segment asking whether at least 10 pitchers legitimately have a shot to win the NL Cy Young Award this season. Then we revisit the biggest MLB free-agent signings and decide whether each move has been a good sign or a bad sign for their new teams — featuring stars like Bo Bichette, Kyle Tucker, Alex Bregman, Pete Alonso, Dylan Cease, and more. On the NBA side, we break down a massive three-team blockbuster sending Giannis Antetokounmpo to the Wizards, Anthony Davis to Golden State, and a mountain of picks changing hands. We debate who wins the deal long-term and what it means for the future of all three franchises. Plus, in another edition of “Who Would You Rather Have For The Next 3 Seasons,” we put OG Anunoby head-to-head with some of the NBA's biggest names including Austin Reaves, James Harden, Derrick White, De'Aaron Fox, Amen Thompson, Steph Castle, and more.

A system from another era was the inspiration for a modern-day solution to the pileup of plastic in the world. The milkman once delivered cold bottles of milk to the doorsteps of homes and took the empty ones away. So what happened to the idea? CBC producer Peter Mitton delivers the (non-plastic) goods in his feature documentary.

Information and communication technologies have fundamentally altered the markets for capital, labor, supplies, and distribution in ways that undermine the basic categories we use to understand the economy. Nationality, industry, firm, size, employee, and other fundamental terms are increasingly detached from the operations of the economy. If we want to understand and tame the new sources of economic power, we need a new diagnosis and a new set of tools. The broad consensus across the political spectrum in the US that monopolistic corporations – particularly Big Tech companies -- have grown too powerful, and that we need to revive antitrust to take on the 'curse of bigness' is mistaken. But both the diagnosis and the cure are rooted in an outdated understanding of how the American economy is organized.

Former senior national security official Frank Rose joins the conversation to examine the future of arms control, nuclear policy, and strategic stability in an increasingly complex global environment. Drawing on his extensive experience in arms control, missile defense, and nuclear security, Rose offers a candid assessment of how arms control must adapt to a world shaped by great‑power competition, emerging technologies, and evolving threats from China and other strategic competitors. He explores arms control not as an end in itself, but as a practical tool for managing risk to the United States and its allies. The discussion also takes a hard look at the National Nuclear Security Administration (NNSA)—its structure, mission, and strategic role—and considers whether organizational reform may be necessary to meet future nuclear security challenges.

In this episode of the Professor Liberty Podcast, we step back from the headlines and trace the evolution of war itself, asking a deeper question: what happens when overwhelming force no longer produces clear victory? From the restrained “gentlemen's wars” of early modern Europe, where conflicts were limited and civilians largely stood apart, to the industrial-scale destruction of the American Civil War, we follow the steady expansion of conflict beyond battlefields and into the fabric of society. Along the way, we explore how World War I transformed war into a grinding system of attrition, and how World War II pushed total war to its absolute peak, where entire cities became targets and destruction reached unprecedented levels. The result is a world where war is constant but rarely decisive, and where the line between victory and catastrophe becomes increasingly blurred, forcing us to reconsider whether “winning” a war still means what we think it does.
In their final discussion, Gaius and Germanicus explore the nature of political violence, comparing the Roman Empire'sorigins to the 21st-century American Republic. Gaius observes that Rome was founded on calculated, physical violence, with Octavian "stepping over bodies" to secure the throne. Conversely, Germanicus argues that modern Americanviolence is largely ritualistic and symbolic, amplified by social media and AI to create an illusion of chaos that contradicts statistically declining murder rates. He contends that the United States has become an "asocial" and risk-averse society where people crave the drama of violent presentations as entertainment to fill "desolate and colorless lives". This "ceremonial violence" is often an orchestrated narrative used for electioneering rather than a genuine precursor to revolution. The speakers also reflect on cultural amnesia, noting how the trauma of the Vietnam War has largely vanished from public discourse and education. They compare current European anxieties—such as the fear of losing electricity—to the 1960s nuclear dread immortalized in The Twilight Zone. Despite the centurions' potential disappointment with a "happy ending," the speakers conclude that narrative power now shapes the empire's reality more than physical conflict. They end their evening in Londinium by promising to return with more existential worries and rosy scenarios for the next debate. 31949 B-36 CARSWELL AFB

Gaius & Germanicus debate in the Londinium wine bar, 92 AD. In our gathering, Gaius and Germanicus address the unfolding chaos of the 21st-century empire for you, veteran centurions. The Emperor is increasingly viewed as unfit by the global commentariat, delivering contradictory messages that leave allies and adversaries confused. Germanicusargues the Emperor allowed himself to be led into a failed war in Persia by Mr. Netanyahu, a conflict that lacks strategic objective and risks a consequential defeat. This "ceremonial" military, though dazzling in appearance, mimics the "mini-me" force of Israel, capable only of destroying cities rather than achieving decisive victory. The American public, sensing this failure through the Emperor's erratic social media posts, recognizes the nation is no longer the superpower it once was — as in the Roman tradition, an emperor who loses an army is quickly discarded.

As the wine flows, we consider a "fairy tale" from the 21st century regarding a new tax on wealthy second homes in New York City. While the proposal to tax penthouses sounds witty to the masses, Germanicus warns it is mere "Kabuki smoke and mirrors" that will drive the wealthy to flee, drawing parallels to programs that destroyed communities and hampered natural mobility. He argues that only those who have lived under the "monstrous regimes" of the East — like those in Germany or Hungary — truly understand the devastation these ideas bring to the human spirit. Our evening concludes with a plan to visit the circus, preferring jugglers and marionettes to the exhausting drama of the modern age, as we depart the wine bar to offer our sacrifices to the divine Augustus.

3. The 21st century saw massive cash infusions creating “ghost cities” and excessive infrastructure. China's cement consumption and loan volume surpassed historic US benchmarks while billionaires like Jack Ma were suppressed. The Belt and Road Initiative then attempted to export this excess capital into international markets. (3)1903
