She is no longer an academic, and now works as a writer and editor. We talked about the history of the novel (Defoe, Swift, Fielding, Richardson), the links between Smith and Austen, epistolatory fiction, what Free Indirect Style actually is, fan fiction and the history of the novel, moral ambivalence, Adam Smith as a literary critic, what Ian Watt got right and wrong, and much more.

On this episode of Reaganism, Roger Zakheim sits down with Congressman Adam Smith, the senior Democrat on the House Armed Services Committee, about his recent trip to China. The discussion centered on the importance of dialogue between the US and China, despite the complex geopolitical tensions and differing perceptions each country holds about the other. Congressman Smith emphasized the need for open communication to address issues such as Taiwan, China's military buildup, and US-China economic relations, advocating for a coexistence strategy rather than a confrontational approach. He shared insights from his meetings with Chinese officials, noting a shift towards more civil discourse and a recognition of mutual interests, while also highlighting the challenges posed by China's historical grievances and global ambitions.

We've all learned this the hard way—just because you know what you want to do and how to do it, doesn't mean you will. It's hard to get and stay motivated, especially when it comes to working on your weaknesses. Most of us do better with someone alongside us, pushing us. It's invaluable. It's also irritating.

The other day, President Trump announced that he has bombed yet another boat allegedly carrying drugs in the Caribbean sea. He has now struck six boats, with 27 people dead, and the bombings have been widely denounced as illegal. Now, in a strange turn of events, The New York Times reports that the head of the military's southern command, Alvin Holsey, is stepping down amid unclear circumstances. Did his resignation have anything to do with these bombings? Congressman Adam Smith of Washington State, the ranking Democrat on the House Armed Services Committee, thinks the answer is likely Yes. Smith talks to us about what he's personally heard about the resignation and why it's plausible that Holsey was removed over potential opposition to the bombings. He illuminates just how appallingly lacking in transparency the administration has been about the strikes, and vows that his committee will seek Holsey's testimony about his departure, which could be very revealing indeed.

Rep. Adam Smith calls the U.S. ‘the most extreme government in the world’ in a stunningly ignorant claim. A local pilot used his plane to create a trident in the sky right before the Mariners landed on a returning flight. Seattle Police will have a heavier presence near the stadiums for Mariners games. // Big Local: Issaquah police are allowed to wear Mariners gear while on duty during the playoffs. Milton is installing speed cameras. Tacoma is considering expanding its public camping ban. // You Pick the Topic: A new fad has adults participating in childish activities.
In this episode, Smith strips back the noise and shares the practical habits, routines, and hacks that genuinely boost performance in everyday life. Forget quick fixes or guru gimmicks—this is about simple, proven actions that fuel your energy, sharpen your focus, and improve your mood. From productivity tips to health upgrades, these are the changes that actually stick. We cover the Pomodoro technique, productivity planning, eating for energy, hydration, journaling, mindfulness, and why gratitude might be the most underrated tool you'll ever use. There's also talk about bowel movements, kids interrupting your focus, and why meditation is more like an indicator light than a brake pedal. And if you've ever wondered whether Hans Zimmer could save your to-do list, this episode might just convince you.

“I had a whole list of people that I thought were going to win,” says Joel Mokyr, “And I wasn't on it.” Waking early, he opened up his computer to find out who had been awarded the 2025 prize in economic sciences, and found emails saying 'Congratulations.' Then, as Mokyr tells the Nobel Prize's Adam Smith in this brief call, he saw missed calls from Sweden on his phone and, “The suspicion started to ripen!” © Nobel Prize Outreach.

“Peter, Peter, make yourself available, your phone, they're trying to reach you!” Listen to Philippe Aghion telling Peter Howitt that the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences has been attempting to call him, captured as part of this call made shortly after the public announcement of their joint 2025 economic sciences prize. In this conversation with the Nobel Prize's Adam Smith he also reveals his joy and surprise at the news, discusses the implications of their ‘creative destruction' model of sustained economic growth, and suggests paths to ensuring that the fruits of growth can be more widely shared. © Nobel Prize Outreach.

“I'm not one of these people who keeps the phone on, and the champagne in the fridge.” Peter Howitt certainly didn't seem to be expecting the news of his 2025 prize in economic sciences. In this call recorded just after the announcement, he talks to the Nobel Prize's Adam Smith about his longstanding friendship with fellow-laureate Philippe Aghion and how they started their collaboration in the conducive environment of MIT. “My future,” he concludes, “is going to involve more economics, and less golf, than I had anticipated!” © Nobel Prize Outreach.

We all want to put our best foot forward and appear like we are competent, successful, and on the right track. But nobody who becomes the best version of themselves does so by themselves.

What do underwater art museums, bomb tests, and citizen science have in common? They're all part of the story of the Great Barrier Reef's past, present—and possible future.Our guest this week is Dr. Adam Smith—freediver, marine biologist, and founder of Reef Ecologic, a Townsville-based social enterprise leading innovative reef conservation through research, education, and community action.In this episode, we dive into how art, science, and storytelling are being used in powerful ways to protect one of the world's most iconic ecosystems. You'll discover how public art installations beneath the sea are connecting people to the reef, how citizen science is turning everyday adventurers into ocean guardians, and what we can learn from extreme events like ship groundings and out-of-control seaweed outbreaks.Support the showPROTECT THE REEF - Sign these Petitions Now!

KGMI's Adam Smith and Dianna Hawryluk chat about the Bellingham Exit Fest, the 2025 Lynden Music Festival, the Blaine Oyster Fest and Doctober at the Pickford Film Center.
“This is the mind of the researcher in Japan,” says Susumu Kitagawa, “Don't switch off the light, even at night.” In this short conversation recorded the day after the announcement of his Nobel Prize in Physics, Kitagawa talks to the Nobel Prize's Adam Smith about his approach to tackling grand challenges, and how to keep a lookout for the unexpected. He also explains how his perspective on research has a lineage that extends back to other Japanese Nobel Prize laureates Kenichi Fukui, Akira Yoshino and even Hideki Yukawa, the very first Nobel Prize laureate from Japan.© Nobel Prize Outreach.First reactions terms of use: https://www.nobelprize.org/ceremonies/streams-terms-of-use Hosted on Acast.

“Some people thought it was a whole load of rubbish. But it didn't turn out that way.” Richard Robson's new concept for molecular architecture, which occurred to him while building models for teaching, was the starting point for the burgeoning field of metal–organic frameworks. In this conversation with the Nobel Prize's Adam Smith, recorded just after his Nobel Prize in Chemistry was announced, he recounts how this new idea emerged and how, in the end, he just had to do something about it. He also offers some modest reflections on a long life in chemistry, which he says wasn't exactly a vocation: “I sort of drifted into it, I couldn't think of anything better to do.”© Nobel Prize Outreach.First reactions terms of use: https://www.nobelprize.org/ceremonies/streams-terms-of-use Hosted on Acast.

“I set out to build beautiful things and solve intellectual problems.” Omar Yaghi was just changing flights when he had heard the news that he had been awarded the 2025 Nobel Prize in Chemistry. For this conversation with the Nobel Prize's Adam Smith, recorded as he was departing on the next leg of his journey, Yaghi speaks about his early life as a refugee in Jordan, the wonderful way his field has developed, and the overwhelming draw of the beauty of chemistry; “The deeper you dig, the more beautifully you find things are constructed.” © Nobel Prize Outreach.

“My wife is very kind to me, so she didn't wake me up for a couple of hours.” John Martinis was sleeping when news of his Nobel Prize in Physics broke, but his wife Jean was up reading late into the night and received the calls, letting him sleep on. In this conversation with the Nobel Prize's Adam Smith, he talks about the excitement of learning how to investigate problems with his co-laureates John Clarke and Michel Devoret, four decades ago, and how that experience taught him what to aim for when building labs in academic and industry subsequently. © Nobel Prize Outreach.

“I was out walking the dogs and she started yelling, and I thought there was a grizzly bear nearby.” Actually, what Fred Ramsdell's wife was telling him, while on a hiking trip together, was that he had been awarded the 2025 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine. In this conversation with the Nobel Prize's Adam Smith, recorded early the following day, Ramsdell recall how the realisation dawned on them. He goes on to speak about the benefits of working in the environment of biotech, the joy of finding talented collaborators, and the importance of celebrating the dedication of those that nurtured hundreds of generations of the all-important scurfy mouse, in which he and Mary Brunkow discovered the FOXP3 gene: “I'm really in awe of the fact that they were able to do that for so long. It's incredible.” © Nobel Prize Outreach.First reactions terms of use: https://www.nobelprize.org/ceremonies/streams-terms-of-use Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
“I could not imagine accepting the prize without the two of them,” says John Clarke of his fellow Nobel Prize laureates in physics, John Martinis and Michel Devoret. In this short conversation with the Nobel Prize's Adam Smith, recorded just after the public announcement of the 2025 Nobel Prize in Physics, Clarke recalls the electric atmosphere in the lab, 40 years ago, during their experiments in which they first demonstrated macroscopic quantum tunnelling. Clarke also reflects on others who inspired his thinking at the start of his career. © Nobel Prize Outreach.First reactions terms of use: https://www.nobelprize.org/ceremonies/streams-terms-of-use Hosted on Acast.

“My phone rang, and I saw a number from Sweden and thought, well that's just spam of some sort, so I disabled the phone and went back to sleep.” Mary Brunkow clearly wasn't expecting the call from Stockholm. This brief conversation with the Nobel Prize's Adam Smith catches the new medicine laureate at her dining table at 4:30am, an hour and a half after she had heard the news. She talks about the power of genetics to unravel biology and how she feels it was an honour to have been one of the contributors to solving the puzzle of immune tolerance: “It takes a bunch of different brains, all working on it together, for sure!” © Nobel Prize Outreach.First Reactions terms of use: https://www.nobelprize.org/ceremonies/streams-terms-of-use Hosted on Acast.

"I believe this will encourage immunologists and physicians to apply the T regulatory cells to treat various immunological diseases.” Shimon Sakaguchi, 2025 Nobel Prize laureate in physiology or medicine, has always been driven by the desire to find new ways to combat disease. In this conversation with the Nobel Prize's Adam Smith, recorded just after the prize announcement, Sakaguchi speaks briefly about his surprise at the news and reflects on the fundamental research question that kept him dedicated to the field after many others abandoned it, a question that took over two decades to answer.© Nobel Prize Outreach.First Reactions terms of use: https://www.nobelprize.org/ceremonies/streams-terms-of-use Hosted on Acast.
