De Zuid-Afrikaanse president Cyril Ramaphosa werd deze week door de Amerikaanse president Trump onder vuur genomen. Trump wapperde met A4'tjes waarop vermoorde witte Zuid-Afrikanen stonden uitgeprint, terwijl hij sprak over een zogenaamde ‘witte genocide'. Er is geen sprake van een buitenproportionele toename van geweld tegen deze groep. Waarom steekt deze theorie dan toch zo hardnekkig de kop op? En hoe verhoudt het zich tot de geschiedenis van witte Zuid-Afrikanen die zichzelf de Bittereinders noemen? We vragen het aan historicus Vincent Kuitenbrouwer, schrijver van War of Words, Dutch pro-boer Propaganda en the South African War (1899 – 1902).

Send us a textEen eerste prijs in acht jaar? Neen, Anderlecht leek in de bekerfinale even zijn voet te kunnen zetten naast Club Brugge, maar verloor uiteindelijk kansloos. Samen met comedian Erhan Demirci blikken we in een nieuwe Radio Radzinski terug op een bewogen dag op en naast het veld. Maar we staan ook stil bij een zoveelste personeelswissel en een bizar weekendinterview van voorzitter Wouter Vandenhaute. “Als een voorzitter in Turkije na zo'n bekerfinale dit interview geeft, dan geraakt die niet meer thuis vrees ik,” windt Demirci er geen doekjes om. Een vierde plaats en een verloren bekerfinale. Da's met aan zekerheid grenzende waarschijnlijkheid de eindbalans voor Anderlecht voor de voetbaljaargang 2024-2025. Daarmee doet paars-wit niet beter dan onder Vincent Kompany die in mei 2022 na een verschil in visie met voorzitter Wouter Vandenhaute de laan wordt uitgestuurd. Bovendien blijven de personeelswissels zich ondertussen opstapelen. Paars-wit zit dit seizoen al aan twee sportief directeurs, een nieuwe CEO Sports en drie trainers. Dat worden er hoogstwaarschijnlijk vier als Hasi binnen een paar weken het gelag moet betalen voor het niet behalen van de vooropgestelde doelstellingen. Geen vuiltje aan de lucht De gemiddelde Anderlecht-supporter verwacht dan een aangeslagen voorzitter voor de camera te zien aan de poorten van het Koning Boudewijnstadion. Maar niets is minder waar. Na vijf jaar aan het hoofd van de club, uitvoerend of niet-uitvoerend, verklaart Vandenhaute dat ‘Anderlecht op de terugweg is'. Er lijkt met andere woorden dus geen vuiltje aan de lucht. Iets waar niet alleen de paars-witte achterban, maar ook comedian en Anderlecht-supporter Erhan Demirci zich toch vragen bij stelt. “Als een voorzitter in Turkije na zo'n bekerfinale zo'n interview geeft, dan geraakt die niet meer thuis vrees ik. Niet dat ik hem dat toewens, absoluut niet. Maar het is toch wel tenenkrullend om te zien hoe er van enige vorm van realiteitszin absoluut geen sprake meer is. Zeker als je dat een week erna nog eens opnieuw leest in de weekendkrant.” Het ondertussen beruchte interview is volgens Demirci ook het schoolvoorbeeld van een goed opgezette marketingtruc. “Je haalt even de druk van de ketel door een personeelswissel aan te kondigen. Daardoor verleg je de focus in plaats van toe te geven dat je zelf fouten hebt gemaakt. Het leek ook allemaal zo voorgekauwd. Alsof er voor de journalisten al een uitgeprinte versie klaar lag op tafel: ‘Hier is jullie A4'tje, gewoon overtypen alsjeblieft'.” Ongebreideld racisme Verder in de aflevering komen er nog een paar vreemde uitspraken van Vandenhaute aan bod en staan we stil bij zijn uitleg over het vertrek van Kompany. Maar ook de rellen in aanloop naar de bekerfinale en na afloop van de match worden besproken. “Ja, dat was racisme in zijn puurste vorm en absoluut onaanvaardbaar. Dat geldt trouwens ook voor het geweld dat er tegenover staat. Geweld met geweld bestrijden is nooit de oplossing. Maar we mogen wel zeggen dat de samenleving met een groot probleem zit. En dat geldt ook voor de politiek. Als een paar Brusselse jongeren in de zomer aan zee met wat parasols gaan smijten, staat het land drie maanden lang in rep en roer. En nu is de storm na een paar dagen alweer gaan liggen.” Eindigen doen we deze Radio Radzinski met een debat over de toekomstige nummer 10 van Anderlecht en de zoektocht naar een antwoord op de vraag welke spelers van deze kern je absoluut niet mag laten gaan. Tot slot geen muzikale uitsmijter deze keer, maar wel een parodie van De Ideale Wereld op Lord of the Rings in aanloop naar de wedstrijd tussen Anderlecht en Club Brugge nu zondag.

Livvakten Carl skulle vara en trevlig värd på sin systers bröllop. Men han tänkte mest på vilka vapen som kan finnas i en kyrka och om man kunde slänga en stol genom fönstret för att skapa en nödutgång.Carl insåg att han var färdig med jobbet som livvakt och egentligen längtade efter livet med villa, vovve, Volvo. Den drömmen höll på att bli verklighet. Men ett brutalt möte i en park en solig lördagsförmiddag ändrade allt.Som barn ville Carl bli proffs på någon idrott, men ledgångsreumatism i ung ålder satte stopp. Istället blev det en resa fylld av rädslor mot livets botten. Därifrån tog han sats mot något som väldigt få får uppleva.I det här avsnittet får du hänga med på en otrolig resa där du får en närbild av jobbet som livvakt åt kändisar och miljardärer. Men också inblick hur man hanterar livet när man blir utsatt för extrema händelser.Vi pratar också om att bli sponsrad av Per Holknekt, att fylla två A4-papper med olika rädslor, hur man förföljer någon på stan, att spela hemlös utanför en bank, ATH-systemet, att inte sticka ut i Mexico City och hur man kan genomgå 25 operationer och tycka det är lite mysigt.Moderator: Gunnar OesterreichMusik: Mattias Klasson/Daniel OlsenDistribution: AcastSamarbetspartners: Life Genomics, Gröna Gårdar, FunmedHitta allt om podden: Websida: https://spannandemoten.se/Instagram: @spannandemotenFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/spannandemotenLinkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/gunnar-oesterreich/Kontakt: gunnar@oesterreich.se eller via sociala medier Hosted on Acast.

In this episode of the AppleVis Podcast, Gaurav returns with Lesson 4 in the series on mastering Numbers, Apple's free spreadsheet app for Mac.In this podcast, he diving into two powerful tools for organizing your data: Sort and Quick Filter. These features help you manage and analyze spreadsheets more efficiently—especially when working with larger datasets.We're using a sample budget spreadsheet with categories like Food, Water, Transportation, and Internet, each with amounts listed for January. Here's how we sorted that data to quickly find the highest expenses:Sorting the January ColumnOpened the Sort Options via the menu (Command + Option + R).Selected the January column.Chose Descending to sort from highest to lowest values.Instantly, the data reorganized itself to prioritize the largest expenses.Quick Filter: Focusing Your ViewNext, we explored the Quick Filter tool—a great way to temporarily hide or display specific rows without permanently deleting data. For example, we hid the Food row with a checkbox and brought it back with a simple undo (Command + Z).Advanced FilteringWe also touched on advanced filtering available in the Formatter pane. There, you can set precise criteria for what appears in your spreadsheet—ideal for more complex sorting needs.RecapSort Function: Explained how and why to use it.Hands-On Example: Sorted the January column using VoiceOver and keyboard commands.Undo + Quick Filter: Demonstrated hiding rows and bringing them back.Formatter Pane: Previewed more detailed filter controls.These tools make navigating and analyzing your spreadsheet data faster and more intuitive. Try them out, experiment a bit, and as always—reach out if you have questions!

Karen Marie Berg er journalist og programleder. Hun mener anger er en del av livet, og at det kan ha en oppdragende effekt, men at hun vil unngå at det spiser henne opp. Vi snakker bl.a. om kjærligheten til radio som har vært med henne hele livet, og at hun sov til «Nattønsket» som liten og at hun ble irritert på moren sin hvis hun skrudde det av, at yrkesveien hennes sto mellom radio og politiradio, og at pyromani og mopedkjøring uten lappen satte en stopper for sistnevnte, at hun ga Narvik et nytt sykehjem når det motsatte faktisk var tilfellet da hun jobba i lokalavis, hvor viktig det er å snakke med andre mennesker som står i sorg når man gjør det samme selv, om hvor viktig det er for henne å høre til og en god del om at hun gjerne kunne fått mat intravenøst så hun slapp å tenke på det, at det faktisk er over 600 000 som hører på henne hver dag og hvor utrolig fin og viktig den livefølelsen er for henne og at hun lever et veldig A4-liv med små glimt av magi som gjør det tilnærmet perfekt.Programleder: Sivert MoeSupport this show http://supporter.acast.com/anger.

Did Jeep accidentally build one of the best hot hatches of the last 40 years? It's is smaller than a Mk8 GTI and could be had with a bulletproof 4.0L inline-six and 5-speed transmission. Can it possibly give the quintessential VW hot-hatch a run for its money? We'll talk Jeep XJ Cherokee, its origins, and all 8 generations of GTI – from the 16v 2.0L, to the 8v 2-point-slow, the soulless 1.8T, the venerable VR6, and the electric e-Golf! === This episode is sponsored by Vyper Industrial — America's #1 rated shop chair, tool carts, and creepers, proudly made here in the US. Visit vyperindustrial.com and use code CARMUDGEON for $50 off. === Welcome to the hot hatch episode! We'll touch on some real oddballs in this one – like the Dodge Omni GLHS, Suzuki Swift, Chevrolet Sprint, and Mitsubishi Mirage. Plus some allegedly fabulous but forbidden fruit: the Peugeot 205 GTi Rally and Renault Clio Williams. Then we'll dive into the Jeep XJ Cherokee which Jason just did a Revelations episode on. It began as the unibody successor to the giant and inefficient Jeep Wagoneer – a honking SUV with CJ Wrangler guts inside – which, incidentally, was a recipe being emulating across the globe as Toyota and Land Rover (to name a few) were also building more comfortable and luxurious SUVs using drivetrain bits from their more serious off-roaders like the BJ/FJ and Series II/III. The Cherokee followed the Range Rover away from the body-on-frame chassis and adopted unitary construction methods resulting in genuine handling prowess – even out-gripping a W201 Mercedes-Benz 190E. In fact, the chassis bones are so good you can find XJs competing amongst much sportier cars in 24 Hours of Lemons races across the country. Jason even deems the XJ one of his best back road drives ever. Sadly, early cars were excruciatingly slow thanks to an anemic Renault-built AMC engine. But that didn't stop Jason from getting one of his very first speeding tickets in one. The little XJ made a lasting impression on nearly everyone who had the pleasure of experiencing one – including Derek, whose experiences in his mom's are literally his earliest datable memories. The little Jeep was so popular that when the Grand Cherokee came along to replace it, so many people were still clamoring for the original Cherokee that Jeep decided they would just build both. After the Jeep, we jump into VW's perennial hatchback hit: the GTI. All 8 generations have their pros and cons: Jason proclaims the VR6 to be one of the best sounding engines ever produced, and the 1.8T the worst VW ever made. The MQB platform underpinning the latest cars is declared spectacular. The Mk4 is a chubby baby Audi/Mercedes. The Mk6 fixes a lot of the hamster-styling of the Mk5, but the Mk5 has the better steering, just beware understeer. The Mk7 is a delight, especially if you can find yourself a Rabbit or Sport edition in Great Falls Green or Cornflower Blue. But even with a fancy color scheme, the humble e-Golf makes the better city car. Of note: Derek finally goes large-barging with a crew made up of a 560SEC, F-Type SVR, F-Pace SVR, a pair of R129s (one dogleg), and A4 2.8 Avant 5-speed, with his Mk5 GTI track car as a palette cleanser. Lastly, Jim Carrey, Mike Myers and Leslie Nielsen are national treasures, and their comedy blockbusters from the 80s, 90s and 2000s are exquisite. But do they hold up as well today as a Jeep XJ?

On a warm afternoon in May 2011, I was walking down Tottenham Court Road in London. I had passed through the wide, open grassy squares of Bloomsbury and Holborn, filled with corporate people enjoying the late spring sun. Now, I was surrounded by the streets of fried chicken joints and tourist souvenir shops packed with people as I headed to catch a double-decker bus home.At 16 years old, navigating London was nothing new to me. I had been taking the bus home from school since I was about 12. Still, this afternoon was slightly different. I was feeling curious, inspired, and contemplative. My school had just taken us out on a Maths conference field day. As I passed cars, lorries, and buses stuck in traffic, my mind zoomed, imagining all the possibilities of what I might study at university and beyond.I was mid-bustle when I saw a sign propped up on the pavement. It read, “Free Personality Tests.”A short woman approached me from the shop.“Hello!” she called out, “Would you like to take a personality test?”Much like the men selling Paddington Bears, Union Jacks, and keyrings, she seemed to be selling her wares. I almost didn't turn around because I had already passed the shop. Yet I distinctly remember thinking, as I stood a couple of steps ahead of her, that maybe I should be more open-minded! A personality test sounded intriguing. My school activities were over for the day. I had nothing else to do and nowhere else to be. I thought to myself: why not?“Sure, I'll take a personality test,” I said to her, turning around.“Amazing. Follow me,” she said, “There's plenty for you to discover.”I went with her into the narrow shop front. The space was quite small and bright, with a kind of beige old office feel to it. The hardwood wall had some kind of giant inscription written on it, and the floor was a faux marble with light brown-green speckles. There was a staircase with a glass, silver-handled railing. She took me down a short corridor, passed rows of books and pamphlets on shelves, into a small back room with low-walled cubicles.She showed me to the cubicle where I was going to take my personality test, and I sat down on a scratchy, cushioned office chair with a round back. There were a couple of other people in there, flipping through pages of questions on small packets of white A4 paper that had been stapled together. I would have heard the scratching of their pencils on the pages, but there was a buzz of background noise and chatter throughout the place. She soon handed me a packet of questions. I wrote my name and my date of birth at the top of the page and got to work.I didn't feel particularly scared there; I was just curious. I was still at the age where I believed that most people were well-intentioned in the world, and I would just be able to leave any place, including this stuffy office room if I felt like it. If anything, my friends and I were the ones actively breaking the law, getting ourselves into less-than-ideal situations, and running away from the police. We'd pay homeless men to buy alcohol for us from the local newsagents. We'd bribe the guy at the corner shop to sell us cheap Egyptian cigarettes. Even if one of us was caught smoking a splif (a rolled mixture of weed and tobacco) in the park, we usually found a way to speak posh with our private school accents and talk the constable out of calling our parents.I kept a steady pace through the questions, quite like the multiple-choice verbal reasoning tests I'd had to take for my entrance exams into secondary school. It had probably 30 pages of questions.Did I get angry sometimes? How often did I feel misunderstood? Did random coincidences happen sometimes that I couldn't explain? Did I ever talk about someone, and then they'd appear later that same day? Did I ever feel very excited but also very bored? Yes. No. Very often. Often. Sometimes. Rarely. Never. Strongly Agree. Agree. Neutral. Disagree. Strongly Disagree.Gosh, that questionnaire was long. After at least about 20 minutes, I really hoped the personality test would be over soon. I was desperate to get the results. Was I a particularly angry person, with unacceptable levels of rage, getting angrier more than most? I thought about leaving the stuffy office, but now I had put so much into the first 25 pages of this thing that my time was such a sunk cost. Couldn't someone just tell me what type of personality I had?When I finally finished the questionnaire, the woman instructed me,“Now, you're going to watch this video where you can learn about the different personality types as we assess your results. You'll know soon.”Thank god, I thought to myself. This better be good.She led me down the staircase with the glass railing into another smaller, slightly darker, stuffy office room. She sat me down in a similar low cubicle. There were a couple of other people in there, including a mother with her young boy, who was playing on the floor.The woman handed me a round, cheap headset with a small black muffler at each earlobe, quite like the ones we got on planes at the time. The monitor was an ugly grey color. She put the DVD into the desktop computer and started the video.I remember the video starting with bright yellow, gold, and orange sunsets and a man and a woman in hiking gear sitting there with their heads in their hands or running in slow motion up a hill.“Do you get angry sometimes? Do you often feel misunderstood by the people around you, even your closest friends and family? Do random coincidences happen sometimes that you can't explain? All this depends on your personality, and we're here to give you the tools so that you can navigate your life and thrive. Our guides are here to assist you.”I sat on my hands, praying that the whole questionnaire had been worth it. This was just starting to get good. About five minutes in, mid-video, the woman quickly came up to my cubicle and pressed stop on the video. She seemed huffed and bothered slightly.“I'm sorry,” she said, “We can't help you. We hope you have a great day—”I interjected,“But I just spent 20 minutes filling out that questionnaire. You can't tell me anything?”“No. Sorry.”Without much of an explanation, she hurried me upstairs. I noticed that most of the people upstairs had gone, possibly to a meeting or to watch videos with their guides and get the answers to their personality tests. She hurried me outside and shut the door behind me. Their white shopfront now looked sleepy and vacant.I stood there for a moment, grumbling to myself, before I continued down Tottenham Court Road to the bus stop. What they had promised sounded kind of amazing, but it had all ended up being a waste of time when I could have been outside, enjoying the late spring afternoon. I regretted going in there only to have my expectations crushed. Why hadn't she been able to give me any answers?Well, it's now 14 years later, and the hilarious thing is that the place still exists. I had entered the “Dianetics & Scientology Life Improvement Centre,” an active “non-profit” organization with a whopping 4.4 stars on Google Maps and 291 reviews, offering “courses and counseling to help you improve your life and reach your full potential.” Just wow.I now know, thanks to this news article, that the questionnaire I took was probably their 200-question “Oxford Capacity Analysis.” The article says, “The Scientology “personality test” is described by various Internet sources as a Scientology recruitment tool used worldwide on Scientology websites, in Scientology churches, and in public settings such as fairs and festivals. It also has been criticized by psychologists as not a bonafide personality test...Young people under age 18 are asked to have a parent or guardian sign the questionnaire.”So, there you have it. Years later, I finally know why I was instructed to leave: I was underaged and alone. In that woman's mind, once she saw my date of birth, I quickly morphed from a fresh, juicy recruit into a potential legal nightmare.I wish I could tell you that I saw it coming or that in the moment, alarm bells went off in my head, and I walked out disgusted, vowing never to return to any cult-like place. But that is far from what happened. Sure, I left that place feeling puzzled and disappointed. Yet, it was only with the benefit of hindsight that I see now how lucky I was to be a minor at the time, without one of my parents nearby to sign my waiver.The truth is that even if I considered myself smart or well-educated at the time, I only narrowly avoided joining one of the largest and most notorious cults in the world because of an even greater factor: the rule of law. Part of being shameless is accepting in a light-hearted way that even if we think we've got it all together, we can still make mistakes. We can still be wrong, very wrong. Especially as young people, sometimes we need an external force like the law to save us from ourselves. When we acknowledge our mistakes shamelessly and do not pretend that we are above other people, having this perspective on life is surprisingly freeing. We've fully come to terms with our foibles and failures, and there's not much in the way of other people that can tarnish us if we hold ourselves in high esteem. We might make a mistake, but that does not mean we are a mistake. Indeed, sometimes, making a mistake may riddle us with deep shame and embarrassment, and that's something we can work through. Then, we have other mistakes that may simply become a funny story that we can share 14 years later.Have you ever been duped? Did you ever almost join a cult? Tell us about your experience in the comments!Join us on our mission to help the world be shamelessly sexy!Love,Tash

Allerlei details komen naar buiten over het bestand dat de Amerikaanse president Trump probeert uit te onderhandelen tussen Oekraïne en Rusland. Hij wil de oorlog in de eerste 100 dagen van zijn termijn beëindigen en de klok tikt hard door, want dan zou er een deal moeten liggen voor 29 april. In Podcast De Dag een analyse van wat er nu op tafel ligt. En dat is summier, weet Oekraïnedeskundige aan Instituut Clingendael Bob Deen. De afspraken die er nu liggen passen op één A4'tje: het zijn alleen de grote lijnen. Volgens Deen roepen zelfs die teksten al vragen op. En dus is er nog heel wat onderhandeling nodig over de details. En dat kost tijd. De vraag is of Oekraïne en Rusland die tijd krijgen van de VS. Reageren?

El Audi TT es un caso de éxito. Más allá de sus ventas, más allá sus resultados deportivos, el TT colaboró decisivamente a que Audi ofreciese algo de lo que carecía hasta la llegada de este coche en 1998. Esto no lo digo yo: Lo dijo en su momento el diseñador jefe de Audi, Peter Schreyer. Os aseguro que pocos coches conozco tan bien como el TT en todas sus generaciones. Vi en directo debutar el prototipo en el Salón de Fráncfort de 1995, fui a su presentación internacional, lo probé a fondo… y acabé siendo propietario de uno de ellos, nada menos que un TTS. Y en 2019 Abraham Schot, nombrado con urgencia en 2018 anunció que Audi dejaría de fabricar el TT para, literalmente, “ser reemplazado por un coche eléctrico”. Para mi uno más de los errores del Grupo VAG. Este TT ha sido víctima de la electrificación, como tantos otros buenos coches. Y por eso, desde ya, os anunció que haremos un video que se titulara así: “Modelos víctimas de la electrificación”. Ya estamos trabajando en ello y el TT ocupará un lugar importante en ese video. A mediados de los 90, Audi ya hacia muy buenos coches. Su gama se estructuraba básicamente en los 80 y 100, coches excelentes, pero poco emocionantes. BMW ofrecía coches con marcado acento deportivo mientras que Mercedes era la marca Premium por excelencia… Lexus acababa de nacer y nadie esperaba lo que paso después. En ese panorama los Audi eran coches que convencían, pero no enamoraban. Y la marca quiso cambiar eso. Primero lanzó en 1994 el A8, un verdadero cochazo con su carrocería de aluminio y que marcaba en nuevo rumbo en cuanto a denominaciones: El 80 sería A4 y el 100 seria A6. Ya tenían una berlina de lujo, pero paralelamente estaban trabajando en un coche deportivo que rejuveneciese a la marca y que transmitiese emoción a ese modelo y a toda la marca… Los tiempos de Quattro ya estaban lejos… había que pensar en algo y en 1995 vemos el resultado de esos trabajos. Y 3 años después nace como coche de producción. Antes de comenzar os hago una advertencia: En todas partes verás que se habla de 3 generaciones del TT, la primera que va de 1998 a 2006, la segunda desde 2006 a 2014 y la tercera desde 2014 a 2023. Para mí la tercera es una puesta al día de la segunda; también la primera tuvo un restyling en el 2000, pero no se la considera una generación distinta. Por lo tanto solo voy a considerar dos generaciones. La producción del Audi TT arranca en Győr, Hungría, en 1998. La verdad es que se complicaron un poco la vida, pues las carrocerías pintadas se transportaban en ferrocarril desde Ingolstadt a la factoría húngara, donde se llevaba a cabo el ensamblaje final del vehículo. En 1999, se introduce la versión descapotable, el Audi TT Roadster, con un techo retráctil de lona y un interior biplaza. Aunque veáis tan bonito al primer TT lo que se escondía debajo era la plataforma del Audi A3 que a su vez era la del VW Golf IV. Y, por cierto, la del León I, bien conocida por todos. De hecho, la mayor parte de sus motores eran los mismo que el Golf, con el magnífico 1.8 de 20 válvulas y turbo en versiones de 150 y hasta 225 CV. Y no faltaba la tracción total Quattro, pues si bien es cierto que la fama del original Audi Quattro estaba lejos, Audi había cuidado y muy bien esa denominación, un gran acierto. También heredado de VW le llegó el motor VR6 de 3,2 litros y 250 CV, un motor con la virtud de su compacidad, que le permitía entrar en el vano motor de estos coches, pero que nunca fue un motor brillante. Malo no fue, pero brillante, tampoco. Pude probar este modelo en todas sus versiones en Alemania, a más de 250 Km/h y en circuito. Y recuerdo que la gran mayoría de la prensa coincidimos en una crítica: A alta velocidad carecía del aplomo de otros coches, incluso del propio Golf. Esto se ha olvidado, pero la verdad es que a 200 km/h las rachas de viento, aunque fuese flojo, daba una sensación de flotación al volante y en circuito, en curvas rápidas, la trasera se sentía ligera… demasiado ligera. Esto era más evidente en las versiones más potentes, pero deslucía a un modelo que era bonito, eficaz, con muy buena motricidad y comportamiento deportivo. Y Audi lo arregló en el año 2000, a algunos os parecerá que lo solucionó rápido y a otros, como a mí, lento. En 2006 aparece la segunda generación y apenas 2 años después me compré un TTS del que guardo un magnífico recuerdo. Como digo para mí el TT de 2014 no es una nueva generación, pues incluso estéticamente no es fácil distinguir uno u otro. Nace en 2016 los RS con motor de 5 cilindros, 2,5 litros y turbo potenciados a 400 CV y por supuesto con cambio DSG de 7 velocidades y tracción total. Este me gustaba más que el mío, pero no existía cuando me lo compre… y no me hubiese llegado el dinero.

A podcast to answer all your questions about productivity, time management, self-development and goal planning. My name is Carl Pullein, and I am your host of this show. This year is the 10th anniversary since I took up consistent journaling. And it's been one of the best things I've ever taken up.  Not only is it one of the most therapeutic things you can do, it's also one of the best ways to organise your thoughts, work your way through problems and vent your anger towards those who really wind you up.  Over the years, I've also found that journaling has helped me to achieve my goals because each day I am writing about how I am doing and if I find myself making excusing, the act of writing out my excuses exposes them for what they really are—excuses.  So, this week, I've chosen a question related to journaling and I hope it will inspire you to invest in a quality notebook and pen and start doing it yourself. And if I can inspire just one of you to take it up and become a Samuel Pepys, I'll be very happy.  So, to kick ups off, let me hand you over to the Mystery Podcast Voice for this week's question.  This week's question comes from Tom. Tom asks, hi Carl, I've heard you talk about your journaling habit numerous times. Do you think writing a journal has helped or hindered your productivity?  Hi Tom, thank you for your question.  To answer your question directly, I can say with certainty that journaling has contributed to my overall productivity.  To explain further, I write in my journal every morning, no matter where I am. And one of the things I always write down is my two objective tasks for the day. Those objectives are the two non-negotiable tasks for the day and by writing them down at the top of my journal entry, I have a way of ensuring I did them when I write my journal the next day,  But more powerfully, writing them down each morning focuses my mind on what needs to be done and how and when I will do them.  Those tasks are also in my task manager, but it's the act of writing them out by hand that gives me the focus.  Writing a journal is much more than being an aid to productivity. It's also a form of therapy.  Like most people, I feel frustrated, overwhelmed and stressed at times. Those feelings need an outlet. A negative way to do that is to get angry, shout, and scream. Sure, that blows off steam, but it also transfers your negative feelings to others—your colleagues and family. Not great.  Instead, if you have a way to write about these things, you start to find ways to solve whatever the underlying issues are. Writing slows down your thinking, and if you were to step back and analyse why you sometimes feel stressed, frustrated and overwhelmed, it is because you feel—incorrectly—everything has to be done right now.  That slowing down helps to bring back some perspective and you can decide when you will do something and what can be left until another day.  When it comes to achieving your goals, a journal is perhaps the best way to track progress. It can also help you establish new, positive habits. When I developed my morning routines around eight years ago, I chose to track them in my journal. I always draw a margin on left of the page, and I list out the six items I do as part of my morning routine: make coffee, wash face and teeth, drink lemon water, write my journal, clear my email inbox and do my shoulder stretches.  I write them down at the top of my journal entry for the day in the margin. And, for the dopamine hit, I check them off too.  I exercise in the late afternoon and, again, I will write out what I did in the margin of my journal.  Now, I could spend a lot of money on habit-tracking apps, but with my journal, I've found no need. I have my record and can review it at any time.  Over the years, I've been asked what I write about and if I use any prompts. The answer is no. Well, apart from writing out my objectives for the day.  Now, prompts can be helpful when you first start—you can think about them as those little stabilisers we put on kids' bikes to help them learn to ride. Sooner or later you want to take them off so you can experience the freedom of riding freely.  I write whatever's on my mind that morning. If everything's going great I write about that. If things are not so great I write about it and why I think things are not going as well as I want them to. I often find as I am writing about an issue, a solution begins to form in my mind and I will continue writing.  If a task comes from that solution, I can put that in its appropriate place later.  As a general rule, I will write for around fifteen minutes. However, if I don't have much to write about, I will give it ten minutes. The weather's a good subject to write about when you have little to write.  If there's a lot on my mind, I'll keep going until I've emptied my thoughts. That's very rarely more than thirty minutes, though. Over the years, I've tried both analogue journaling—with pen and paper and digital journaling using an app called Day One.  On balance, I've found that pen and paper journaling works best.  I spend most of my working time in front of a screen. I type a lot. So, opening up a nice notebook and picking up a fountain pen is a lovely break from the constant screen time. It also feels a lot less rushed and more relaxing.  One thing I noticed when I was writing my journal in Day One—a popular digital journal—was I never went back to my old entries. I read enough typed documents on screen all day. I have no desire to read through more, even if it's my journal.  I keep my old paper journals on my bookshelf and often skim through pages when waiting for a call to start. It's incredibly nostalgic and leaves you realising you have accomplished a lot.  I was recently asked if I am worried about people reading my journals. Hahaha, that's the point.  One of the inspirations for me to start writing a journal was how the journals of people like Samuel Pepys, Charles Darwin and Isaac Newton are still around.  These journals were written hundreds of years ago and, in the case of Samuel Pepys, are a snapshot of how we lived in the 17th Century.  Pepys was very open about what he did. Some good things and a lot of bad things. But does he care we are reading them today? Of course not. He's been dead for 320 years.  I have the same attitude. I've nothing to hide from my wife, and the journals are kept in my study—home office. If I lost my journal when travelling, so be it. There's nothing scandalous in there—well, not yet anyway hahaha. There are a few tips I would share with you if you are thinking about journaling. Start on paper. Buy yourself a nice notebook. You'll find bound notebooks with a hard cover are best. Choose A5 or B5 size. You'll find an A4 notebook a little daunting at first.  Hardback notebooks will last a long time, and the hardcover will protect the pages better than a soft cover.  I would also suggest investing in a fountain pen. You can pick up a refillable one for less than $20 these days. Lamy Safaris are excellent pens, and so are the Pilot Metropolitans and Platinum Preppys.  If you invest in a fountain pen, ensure the paper you buy is fountain pen-friendly. Rhodia Web-books and Clairefontaine notebooks are good choices, as are many Japanese notebooks such as Midori's MD notebooks.  When you start journaling, think of it as if you were meeting a stranger for the first time. You will naturally be a little reserved at first. You might only write about the weather and perhaps what you did yesterday.  As long as you remain consistent with it, you will soon open up. You'll start writing a few thoughts and feelings after a few weeks. Let it roll and don't hold back.  I would also recommend writing in the morning. You will likely be much more consistent that way. Evening times can be difficult because you will sometimes be tired. You may even have had a few too many G'nTs, and you won't write.  Tie writing your journal to your morning routines. You don't have to write for long. Give yourself ten minutes.  And if you want to be more focused, after writing the date at the top, write out your two must-do tasks for the day. That way, you have a method to hold yourself accountable. If, for whatever reason, you didn't do your must-do tasks, dedicate a sentence or two to writing about why you didn't do them.  This helps you because over time you may see a pattern developing. You might discover that afternoons are terrible for doing your focused work because your boss always wants to have meetings then. You can then use that information to change your structure.  If you draw a margin on the page, you can use the margin to track other data such as a food log, exercise and even your energy levels. I track my weight there. Each Wednesday, I weigh myself and write my weight in the margin (in a different coloured ink).  And there you go, Tom. Yes, journaling has helped me to be more productive. It slows me down and gets me to think better, leading to better focus on the day ahead. It also gives me a place to consider new ideas and play around with possible solutions.  I hope this episode has inspired some of you to start journaling. It's a fantastic way to bring perspective on chaotic days and weeks. It also slows you down—always a good thing in a fast-paced world, and gives you a place to express your thoughts.  And who knows, you may be the next Samuel Pepys or Leonardo Da Vinci in three-hundred years or so.  Thank you, Tom, for your question, and thank you to you, too, for listening. It just remains for me now to wish you a very, very productive week.

On November 2, 2016, thirty-four-year-old so-called “Supermom” Sherri Papini went out for a run near her home in Redding, California, and disappeared without a trace. Three weeks later, on Thanksgiving Day, Sherri was discovered on the side of the road in a nearby county, where she said her captors had released her. In the days that followed, Sherri claimed she had been kidnapped by two unknown Latin American women, who physically abused her, including branding her on the shoulder with the word “Exodus.” The case garnered considerable attention from the local and national media, but when it came to details on her abductors and their motives, Sherri was surprisingly tight-lipped, giving the police and FBI little to work with. In March 2022, more than five years after her supposed abduction, the nation was shocked to learn that federal agents had arrested Papini and charged her with faking her own kidnapping. A month later, Sherri pleaded guilty to the charges and was sentenced to more than a year in prison. The news was stunning and left everyone wondering, why would a seemingly ordinary and ostensibly happy mother orchestrate such a bizarre hoax?Thank you to the Incredible Dave White of Bring Me the Axe Podcast for research and Writing support!ReferencesABC News. 2016.
