Sean bienvenidos a un nuevo Spaces en directo desde Twitter. Esta será una entradilla corta para hablar sobre los orígenes del poder de la familia Kennedy, para ello voy a utilizar un artículo de la web vigilant citizen,ciudadano vigilante, una especie de técnico preocupado pero de USA. Dice así: “Los Kennedy fueron considerados, en su momento, la Familia Real de Estados Unidos: una poderosa dinastía que además era querida y admirada por el público. Sin embargo, la asombrosa "Maldición Kennedy" impactó profundamente a la familia, ya que numerosos miembros perdieron la vida a temprana edad y en extrañas circunstancias. Esta serie de artículos revelará datos menos conocidos sobre los Kennedy y explicará cómo el destino de la familia se relaciona con el gobierno en la sombra que gobierna Estados Unidos. Joseph Patrick Kennedy Sr. fue quien orquestó el ascenso de la familia al poder. Fue una figura destacada del Partido Demócrata y de la comunidad católica irlandesa de Estados Unidos. También fue un exitoso hombre de negocios, pues amasó una fortuna comprando y fusionando varios estudios cinematográficos de Hollywood e importando y distribuyendo bebidas alcohólicas en Estados Unidos después de la Ley Seca. Durante su carrera política, Kennedy se convirtió en un asesor cercano del presidente Franklin D. Roosevelt y fue nombrado presidente inaugural de la Comisión de Bolsa y Valores de Estados Unidos (SEC). En 1938, fue nombrado embajador de Estados Unidos en el Reino Unido, un prestigioso cargo donde estableció vínculos con la nobleza británica y presenció los inicios de la Segunda Guerra Mundial. Trató con personas pertenecientes a los "linajes Illuminati" (según la definición de Fritz Springmeier), como los Rothschild, los Astor y los Sassoon. Mantuvo una estrecha relación con el magnate periodístico y figura destacada de los Illuminati, William Randolph Hearst, quien posteriormente contribuyó al despegue de la carrera de JFK. Durante la carrera política de Kennedy Sr., asesoró a Roosevelt, masón de grado 33 y primer Gran Maestro Honorario de la Orden de DeMolay. Roosevelt, quien también fue asesorado por los notables ocultistas Manly P. Hall y Nicholas Roerich, ordenó la colocación del Sello de los Estados Unidos (el símbolo Illuminati de la pirámide con el ojo que todo lo ve) en el billete de dólar. Joe Kennedy Sr. también formó parte de varias órdenes de élite, como los Caballeros de Malta y la Sociedad de Peregrinos, un grupo altamente secreto que incluía entre sus miembros a los Rockefeller, los Vanderbilt, JP Morgan, miembros de la realeza británica, varios líderes de la Sociedad Skull and Bones, masones, Caballeros Templarios y presidentes de la Reserva Federal, así como ejecutivos de importantes empresas y medios de comunicación. De hecho, la Sociedad de Peregrinos es probablemente el grupo de élite más influyente que existe. En 1944, Kathleen, hija de Joe Kennedy, se casó con William Cavendish, duque de Devonshire (un cargo muy prestigioso dentro de la nobleza británica). El duque de Devonshire era Gran Maestro de la Gran Logia Unida de Inglaterra, el órgano rector de la mayoría de los masones en Inglaterra, Gales, Estados Unidos y la Commonwealth. Tras el fallecimiento prematuro de su hija, Joseph Kennedy declaró: Si Kathleen y su esposo vivieran, yo sería el padre de la duquesa de Devonshire (primera dama de compañía de la reina) y el suegro del líder de todos los masones del mundo. Por lo tanto, Joseph Kennedy estaba muy bien conectado con la élite oculta y los linajes Illuminati de Estados Unidos y Gran Bretaña. Si bien albergaba la esperanza de convertirse en candidato presidencial, su oportunidad se cerró cuando, ante la amenaza de una invasión nazi, declaró que «la democracia en Gran Bretaña ha terminado», añadiendo que «la batalla por Gran Bretaña no se trata de democracia, eso son puras tonterías». A puerta cerrada, Kennedy también fue descubierto simpatizando con Hitler y el movimiento nazi. También se le citó profiriendo diversas declaraciones antisemitas en conversaciones con los Astor. Consciente de que la indignación que causaba le impediría llegar a la presidencia, Kennedy padre actuó entre bastidores y se concentró en «colocar» a sus hijos en puestos de poder. Tenía la riqueza y, aún más importante, los contactos con la élite necesarios para que sus planes se hicieran realidad.” Robert F. Kennedy Jr., nacido el 17 de enero de 1954 en Washington D.C., es un abogado, activista ambiental y figura pública estadounidense, y su reciente papel como Secretario de Salud y Servicios Humanos (HHS) desde febrero de 2025, lo que ha generado controversia, especialmente por sus políticas sobre vacunas. Conocido por ser parte de la influyente familia Kennedy. Hijo de Robert F. Kennedy, exfiscal general y senador, y sobrino del presidente John F. Kennedy, ha forjado su propio camino, centrándose principalmente en el activismo ambiental y, más recientemente, en posturas controvertidas sobre la salud pública. Como presidente de la Waterkeeper Alliance (Alianza para la protección del agua), una organización dedicada a la protección de los recursos hídricos, Kennedy ha liderado esfuerzos para combatir la contaminación y promover esa palabreja tan manida por los de la agenda 2030, la sostenibilidad, ganándose reconocimiento por su trabajo en defensa del medio ambiente. Su trayectoria como abogado ambientalista incluye casos destacados contra grandes corporaciones por daños ecológicos, aunque si rascamos un poco vemos que la asociación Riverkeeper, la organización fundadora del movimiento fue la que logro la recuperación del rio Hudson por mas de mil millones de dólares. Ambas organizaciones fueron pioneras en reclamar la "restauración" de los ríos, un eufemismo que en realidad significa la destrucción de presas y otras infraestructuras hidráulicas y energéticas. Modelo que se ha replicado en todo el mundo golpeando especialmente a España. Los otros litigios han sido muy mediáticos pero en realidad hablamos de poco dinero y poca afectación para las multinacionales que contaminan el planeta de verdad. Kennedy comenzó su carrera profesional como asistente de distrito en Manhattan y, en la década de 1980, se unió a organizaciones como Riverkeeper y el Consejo de Defensa de Recursos Naturales (NRDC), enfocándose en la protección ambiental. En 1986, se convirtió en profesor adjunto de derecho ambiental en la Universidad Pace y, en 1987, fundó la Clínica de Litigios Ambientales de Pace. En 1999, fundó Waterkeeper Alliance, de la cual fue presidente durante 21 años, liderando esfuerzos globales para proteger los recursos hídricos. Su trabajo incluyó demandas exitosas contra municipios y corporaciones por violaciones de la Ley del Agua Limpia, consolidándolo como una voz prominente en la defensa del medio ambiente. Recibió reconocimientos como "Héroe del Planeta" de la revista TIME y el Premio Sartisky a la Paz, reflejando su impacto en este ámbito. Nosotros sabemos que Roma no premia a traidores, ergo, el no ha traicionado a Roma. Su carrera inicial se centró en la conservación de ecosistemas y la lucha contra la contaminación, especialmente en el impacto de estas en la salud humana. En 2014, co-fundó Children's Health Defense, una organización dedicada a abordar el aumento de condiciones crónicas infantiles, como el autismo, lo que marcó su transición hacia temas de salud pública. Children’s Health Defense (CHD), fundada por Robert F. Kennedy Jr., mantiene una postura crítica hacia la vacuna triple vírica (MMR, contra sarampión, paperas y rubéola), centrada en cuestionar su seguridad, eficacia y obligatoriedad. Esta afirmación se basa en el estudio de Andrew Wakefield de 1998, que relacionaba la MMR con el autismo. Dicho estudio fue retractado por supuestos fraudes científicos aunque si investigamos veremos que se trata de una argucia legal. A través de su sitio web, redes sociales y documentales como Vaxxed (coproducido por CHD), la organización difunde mensajes que cuestionan la MMR, alegando que los riesgos no se divulgan adecuadamente. Esta organización y sus posturas han sido criticadas por promover teorías conspirativas, como la idea de que la enfermedad de Lyme es un arma biológica, una afirmación que revivió en una audiencia del Senado el 5 de febrero de 2025. En los últimos años, Kennedy se ha posicionado como un crítico vocal de las políticas de vacunación, cuestionando el consenso científico y promoviendo escepticismo hacia las vacunas. Esto ha generado una polarización significativa, con seguidores que ven en él un defensor de la libertad individual y críticos que lo acusan de difundir desinformación. Sus libros, como “Timerosal: Que hable la ciencia” (2014), reflejan su enfoque en los supuestos riesgos de los conservantes en vacunas. Kennedy es un charlatán que solo está redefiniendo el negocio de los laboratorios mientras engaña, esperanza e ilusiona a los ingenuos. En unas recientes declaraciones dijo sobre las vacunas covid que “no superan los beneficios supuestos”, además de mencionar la “falta de datos de alta calidad que demuestren la seguridad de las vacunas de ARNm durante el embarazo” y la incertidumbre en cuanto a los beneficios para las madres gestantes y sus bebés”. Pero como podemos ver en la web del CDC, Notas del calendario de vacunación infantil, se sigue vacunando a bebes a partir de los 6 meses contra una enfermedad imaginaria como es el covid, con vacunas que se ha visto que presentan muchas reacciones adversas. Independientemente de las palabras de Kennedy al final las mujeres embarazadas son "personas de riesgo" para el CDC y por tanto se las recomienda vacunarse del covid. La administración bajo el mandato de Kennedy ha dicho que «todas las nuevas vacunas se someterán a pruebas de seguridad en ensayos controlados con placebo antes de su autorización», sin embargo la FDA acaba de aprobar una nueva inyección de Moderna sin un solo ensayo controlado con placebo. Los estudios con placebo empezarían a finales de este año y concluirían en 2027, pero la vacuna mNexspike de baja dosis ya esta en el mercado para personas de 65 años o mas o entre los 12 y 64 con al menos uno o más factores de riesgo subyacentes. Es más, Kennedy está permitiendo que siga la investigación para encontrar vacunas a la carta. Al respecto dijo: ”Un impulso para sustituir las vacunas de talla única por vacunas genéticamente personalizadas que sean seguras y eficaces para todos”. Leemos en una nota de prensa del Departamento de Salud y Servicios Humanos (HHS) del pasado 1 de mayo lo siguiente: “Washington, D.C. - Departamento de Salud y Servicios Humanos (HHS) y los Institutos Nacionales de Salud (NIH) anunciaron hoy el desarrollo de la plataforma de vacunas universales de próxima generación, Generation Gold Standard, utilizando una plataforma de beta-propioctona (BPL) activada por todovirus. Esta iniciativa representa un cambio decisivo hacia la transparencia, la eficacia y la preparación integral, financiando el desarrollo interno de vacunas universales contra la gripe y el coronavirus de los NIH, incluidos los candidatos BPL-1357 y BPL-24910. Estas vacunas tienen como objetivo proporcionar una protección de amplio espectro contra múltiples cepas de virus propensos a pandemias como la gripe aviar H5N1 y los coronavirus como SARS-CoV-2, SARS-CoV-1, y MERS-CoV. Nuestro compromiso es claro: toda innovación en el desarrollo de vacunas debe basarse en la ciencia y la transparencia del patrón oro, y sometida a los más altos estándares de pruebas de seguridad y eficacia, dijo el secretario del HHS, Robert F. Kennedy, Jr.” Nos están hablando no solo del covid, si no de la gripe aviar y el virus MERS… En abril de 2024, Kennedy lanzó una campaña para la nominación presidencial del Partido Demócrata, pero en octubre de ese año anunció que correría como independiente, rompiendo con el partido al que su familia ha estado históricamente vinculada. Su campaña se centró en temas como la libertad individual, la transparencia gubernamental y la reforma del sistema de salud, pero enfrentó desafíos en términos de apoyo y cobertura mediática. El 23 de agosto de 2024, suspendió su campaña y respaldó a Donald Trump en un mitin en Arizona, con la intención de mantener su presencia en la boleta en estados no competitivos. Este movimiento fue visto como una estrategia para influir en la política nacional, especialmente en temas de salud. El 14 de noviembre de 2024, Donald Trump lo nominó para el cargo de Secretario de Salud y Servicios Humanos (HHS), un puesto que asumió el 13 de febrero de 2025, tras una confirmación ajustada en el Senado con un voto de 52 a 48, donde Mitch McConnell fue el único republicano en votar en contra. Este nombramiento marcó un hito, ya que Kennedy se convirtió en el primer candidato presidencial independiente en ocupar un puesto de gabinete después de postularse para la presidencia. Su confirmación enfrentó oposición, con más de 17,000 médicos firmando una carta en enero de 2025 instando al Senado a rechazar su nominación, reflejando las preocupaciones sobre sus posturas en salud pública. Robert F. Kennedy Jr., al asumir el cargo de secretario de Salud y Servicios Humanos (HHS), poseía una cartera de inversión considerable que incluía acciones en empresas que, en teoría, debería regular en su rol. Según una carta de información presentada el 21 de enero de 2025, a pocos días de asumir su cargo, ante la Oficina de Ética Gubernamental de Estados Unidos, RFK Jr. se comprometió a desinvertir en varias compañías, incluidas las biotecnológicas CRISPR Therapeutics y Dragonfly Therapeutics, en un plazo de 90 días si era confirmado para el puesto. El invertía en empresas de terapias genéticas tales como CRISPR Therapeutics y Dragonfly mientras advertía de los riesgos de esas mismas terapias a través de su Fundación Children's Health Defens, en lo que consideramos una acción hipócrita. Un documento separado detalla un extenso listado de relaciones económicas, que incluye inversiones en empresas destacadas como Amazon, Apple, Vanguard, Citibank, Deutsche Bank, Rockefeller Access Fund, Disney, Warner Bros, entre otras, evidenciando la magnitud de su portafolio. Desde su toma de posesión, Kennedy ha implementado una serie de políticas controvertidas. El 13 de febrero de 2025, firmó la Orden Ejecutiva 14211, creando la Comisión "Make America Healthy Again" (MAHA), que preside, con el objetivo de investigar las enfermedades crónicas infantiles y evaluar las amenazas de los medicamentos con receta. El 22 de mayo de 2025, lanzó el informe MAHA, que posteriormente fue criticado por contener citas a estudios inexistentes, con la Casa Blanca atribuyendo los errores a problemas de formato. El 29 de mayo de 2025, se informó que su equipo agregó nuevos errores al informe, empeorando la situación. Otras acciones incluyen el despido de aproximadamente 5,200 trabajadores federales de salud recién contratados de agencias como los CDC y el NIH el 14 de febrero de 2025, y la eliminación de la mayoría del personal del Instituto Nacional para la Seguridad y Salud Ocupacional en abril de 2025, cancelando programas como las aprobaciones de equipos de seguridad para el lugar de trabajo y la investigación sobre la salud de los bomberos. El 9 de junio de 2025, removió a los 17 miembros del Comité Asesor sobre Prácticas de Inmunización (ACIP) de los CDC y los reemplazó con nuevos miembros, una decisión que generó críticas por potenciales conflictos de interés. El 20 de febrero de 2025, instruyó a los CDC a suspender las campañas publicitarias de vacunación contra la gripe durante una temporada de influenza severa, enfocándose en el "consentimiento informado". Durante un brote de sarampión en el suroeste de los Estados Unidos en 2025, que reportó 146 casos, 20 hospitalizaciones y 1 muerte en Texas a finales de febrero, Kennedy hizo comentarios públicos el 26 de febrero de 2025, afirmando falsamente que hubo dos muertes y cuatro brotes ese año (16 en 2024), y sugirió que la cuarentena fue la principal razón de las hospitalizaciones, lo cual fue refutado. Promovió tratamientos marginales como el aceite de hígado de bacalao y la vitamina A, y escribió un artículo de opinión en Fox News el 2 de marzo de 2025, calificando a las vacunas de "elección personal" y recomendando vitaminas, lo que llevó a informes de toxicidad por vitamina A en niños infectados. El 28 de marzo de 2025, enfrentó más críticas por promover tratamientos no convencionales, como vitaminas, lo que generó alarma entre los profesionales de la salud. El 25 de marzo de 2025, su desinformación llevó a la renuncia del principal encargado de la comunicación de salud pública de los CDC, y el 3 de marzo de 2025, el principal portavoz de HHS también renunció, citando "desinformación y mentiras". El 28 de marzo de 2025, el principal oficial de vacunas de la FDA también renunció por razones similares. En julio de 2025, Kennedy enfrenta demandas legales significativas. El 7 de julio de 2025, la Academia Americana de Pediatría, la Asociación Americana de Salud Pública y otras organizaciones médicas demandaron a HHS y a Kennedy por cambios unilaterales en las recomendaciones de vacunas, específicamente por eliminar las recomendaciones de vacunas contra el COVID-19, argumentando que estas acciones son ilegales. Estas demandas reflejan la creciente oposición de la comunidad médica a sus políticas. Además, el 25 de junio de 2025, acusó a Gavi, una agencia global de vacunas, de ignorar la ciencia en la inmunización de niños, una afirmación que ha sido controvertida y criticada por expertos. Robert F. Kennedy Jr. elogió recientemente la Operación Warp Speed, (lanzada en mayo de 2020, bajo la administración de Donald Trump, con el objetivo de acelerar el desarrollo, la producción y la distribución de vacunas, tratamientos y diagnósticos para la COVID-19), calificándola de "logro extraordinario" y "demostración de liderazgo" del expresidente Donald Trump. Esta declaración supone un cambio notable para Kennedy, que anteriormente había criticado la iniciativa. Sus comentarios se realizaron durante una audiencia en el Senado, destacando las complejidades de la lealtad política y la evolución de las narrativas que rodean el despliegue de la vacuna COVID-19 de la administración Trump. Las acciones de Kennedy como Secretario de HHS han generado un debate intenso sobre el equilibrio entre la libertad individual y la responsabilidad pública en salud. Su promoción de la iniciativa MAHA, incluyendo giras por estados como Oklahoma y Louisiana en julio de 2025, busca revolucionar el sistema de salud, pero muchos lo ven como una fuente de temor por su enfoque en teorías marginales y su rechazo al consenso científico. Su legado como activista ambiental sigue siendo notable, como dijimos fue miembro y directivo del grupo ambientalista Riverkeeper. El bagaje de esta ONG inspiró un libro cuyo prologo fue escrito por el también promotor de los créditos de carbono Al Gore. Robert Kennedy es un calentólogo que dio un discurso durante el concierto de la misma temática catastrofista llamado Live Earth que organizó David Rothschild y Al Gore entre otros. Robert F. Kennedy Jr durante “la Marcha Popular por el Clima” en Nueva York que se llevó a cabo el domingo 21 de septiembre de 2014 dijo: “que es lamentable que no existan leyes para reducir el escepticismo sobre el cambio climático entre los legisladores” y “"Ojalá existiera una ley que los castigara”. ¿No tiene ojos en la cara el señor Kennedy para ver que la geoingeneria está detrás del supuesto cambio climático? El ayuntamiento de Adeje, en la isla de Tenerife, le pago una visita para hablar sobre el cambio climático. Un ayuntamiento de un pueblo de 50.000 habitantes trae a una superestrella como el señor Kennedy para que les cuente una milonga que solo han visto unas 100 personas en Youtube. Les pondremos la charla en la descripción del podcast. Y es que hay mucho dinero para este tipo de campañas que en realidad promueven la Agenda 2030 al igual que otras supuestas luchas como la libertad sexual. RFK Jr. ha sido un luchador por la comunidad LGBT y el "matrimonio igualitario". En 2011 se unió a su Campaña de Derechos Humanos en Nueva York junto a Mike Bloomberg, Fren Drescher, Kevin Bacon, Whoopi Goldberg y otros. Es una marioneta mas del poder al igual que lo fue su tio o cualquier otro miembro de la familia Kennedy. El New York Post lo relacionó presuntamente con Epstein y el Lolita express, en un largo y documentado artículo publicado en diciembre de 2023. No solo muestra una fotografía de RFK Jr. y su amante durante una fiesta que ofreció Epstein en 1994 si no que recoge declaraciones del propio Kennedy reconociendo que viajo por lo menos dos veces en el avión del pederasta en compañía de niños. Su amante por aquel entonces que luego terminaría siendo su esposa, Mary Richardson Kennedy, se suicidó en 2012 dos años después de divorciarse de Kennedy. Por aquel entonces estaban empezando a salir a la luz los escándalos de Epstein. En el New York Post podemos leer: “Kennedy era tan cercano a Epstein que el multimillonario tenía una larga entrada para “Kennedy, Bobby y Mary” en su “pequeña libreta negra”, que incluía contactos de personas de la alta sociedad y políticos, así como de las jóvenes a las que agredió sexualmente.” Christina Oxenberg miembro de la depuesta familia real serbia (el príncipe Andrés de Gran Bretaña es primo segundo), es una vieja amiga de la familia Kennedy y escribió un libro en 2021 donde habla de esa relación: “Esos viajes tuvieron lugar hace aproximadamente 30 años, mucho antes de que la conducta criminal del Sr. Epstein fuera de conocimiento público”. “En junio de 1989, el magnate de la prensa británica Robert Maxwell organizó una fiesta en el Lady Ghislaine, a orillas del Potomac, en Washington, D. C. Entre los invitados se encontraban el reverendo Jesse Jackson, exsecretario de Defensa, el director de la CIA y dos Kennedy.” Robert Maxwell era el padre de la compinche de Epstein, la supuesta madame, que atraía y manejaba a las chicas jóvenes con las que Epstein chantajeaba a la flor y nata mundial. Una Doctora que huyó a México estuvo denunciando a este particular Kennedy de que le estaba enviando acoso mafioso organizado e intentos de asesinato con tipos de la C I A. Esto durante la plandemia, antes de ingresar como miembro del "gobierno" actual de USA. Por supuesto este tipo de noticias son tildadas de bulo por las agencias verificadoras. Pero conozcamos un poco de dónde vienen estas agencias. Y es que la CIA, las agencia de verificación y los Kennedy son como uña y carne como se puede ver en documentos desclasificados de la propia CIA. Desde 1985 la CIA planeó como introducir sus ideas en el público. Para ello se infiltró junto al FBI en varias universidades como la Escuela de Gobierno Kennedy de Harvard. Desde allí se empezaron a crear las primeras agencias de fact checking como Crosscheck y otras bajo agencias como First Draft...agencia cuya supervisión recae en la propia CIA. Para Maldita.es la verdad brota de estas fuentes. Como os digo la propia CIA dio una conferencia en 1987 para dejar claro que las mentes más privilegiadas debían compartir pupitre con algunos de sus agentes. Esto es ya es duro de por si...pero aún no es nada para lo que esconden estas agencias de verificación. Una pequeña búsqueda os arrojará quién está detrás de la financiación de las principales. Incluyendo las españolas maldito bulo y otras. Las Fundaciones Avina y Ashoka son sus principales garantes. Nuestros amigos de Desmontando a Babylon nos lo contaron en varias ocasiones como en BdlV - dab radio temporada 7.0 Episodio 03 No somos m ashokas Clara Jiménez Cruz, la cofundadora y CEO de Maldito Bulo fue elegida Ashoka Fellow (una changemaker) en 2019. ¿Qué es eso de Ashoka y de que va ese tema de los changemakers, los hacedores del cambio o emprendedores sociales? Básicamente hablamos de unas cuantas familias poderosas, entre ellas la suiza Schmidheiny y la belga Emsens y De Cartier, todas ellas propietarias de las multinacionales que explotaron el amianto, creando y financiando estas agencias de verificación con la complicidad, como no, de los Estados Unidos. Así que ya veis, las multinacionales que contaminaron con amianto todo el mundo occidental y que han provocado cientos de miles de muertes por cáncer están detrás de las agencias que verifican si la información es real. De esto no oiréis hablar nunca al flamante RFK Jr. Estamos ante un político que habla sin dejar clara su postura en muchos puntos importantes, por ejemplo, durante su comparecencia en la audiencia del 29 de enero de 2025 para considerar su nominación como Secretario de Salud y Servicios Humanos le hicieron esta pregunta sobre la IA: “La inteligencia artificial está transformando la investigación, el desarrollo y la prestación de servicios sanitarios. Tiene el potencial de mejorar la atención al paciente, los resultados sanitarios y la eficiencia. La IA también podría ser utilizada por los pagadores para limitar el acceso de los pacientes y crear obstáculos adicionales. ¿Qué papel cree que desempeñará el HHS en la gobernanza de esta tecnología transformadora?" Y esta fue su respuesta: “La inteligencia artificial tiene el potencial de cambiar fundamentalmente la forma en que se prestan los servicios sanitarios y los servicios humanos. Teniendo esto en cuenta, es posible que sea necesario considerar nuevas políticas y enfoques en toda la industria y el gobierno. El HHS puede apoyar mejor a los pacientes ofreciendo un entorno regulatorio claro y estable, cuando sea apropiado, con respecto a la seguridad, la eficacia y la transparencia, al tiempo que crea un amplio espacio para que el sector privado innove y amplíe la competitividad de Estados Unidos.” Le preguntaron sobre la transparencia. “Sr. Kennedy, la primera administración Trump tomó medidas importantes para mejorar la transparencia en la atención médica. Los programas y requisitos de transparencia en la atención médica, si se amplían, podrían ofrecer una oportunidad única para ayudar de manera significativa a reducir los costos de la atención médica y mejorar la calidad de los resultados. Si se confirma su nombramiento, ¿seguirá apoyando estos esfuerzos mediante la implementación de programas piloto de transparencia adicionales y políticas del HHS para ampliar aún más el trabajo que el gobierno federal ya ha comenzado en materia de transparencia?” Respuesta: R: “Si se confirma mi nombramiento, me comprometo a instaurar la transparencia en todos los programas y actividades del HHS, para que los estadounidenses puedan recuperar la confianza en el sistema sanitario. Además, espero con interés trabajar con el Congreso para presentar reformas legislativas que proporcionen a los estadounidenses una transparencia sin precedentes en su sistema sanitario.” Le preguntaron por la pandemia de Covid y se limito a contestar como lo haría un político. “La pandemia de COVID-19 puso de relieve el papel fundamental de la telesalud, que permite a los pacientes mantenerse en contacto con sus equipos de atención médica mientras permanecen seguros en sus hogares. Pero más allá de la pandemia, la telesalud sigue ofreciendo esperanza e innovación, desde el apoyo a los servicios de salud mental hasta la gestión de enfermedades crónicas, la mejora de la atención materna e incluso la solución de la escasez de personal en el sector sanitario. Presenté la Ley de Modernización de la Telesalud, un proyecto de ley bipartidista para hacer permanentes las flexibilidades de telesalud promulgadas durante la pandemia de COVID-19, con el fin de garantizar la cobertura continua y el acceso a la atención médica para los estadounidenses. Si se confirma, ¿cómo planea el HHS trabajar con el Congreso para garantizar que millones de beneficiarios de Medicare no pierdan el acceso a los servicios de telesalud y caigan abruptamente en el «precipicio de la telesalud»?” Respuesta: “La telesalud es una herramienta importante para proporcionar acceso a una gama de servicios de atención médica cruciales, especialmente para quienes viven en zonas rurales y en áreas con escasez de proveedores. Si se confirma mi nombramiento, espero trabajar con el Congreso para garantizar que los modos innovadores de prestación de atención médica, como la telesalud, maximicen la calidad y el acceso a la atención para los beneficiarios de Medicare.” Y es que durante el Covid se gano mucho dinero sometiendo a la población a medidas tan absurdas como usar un bozal que no servia para nada. Tenemos un escándalo en España que relaciona a la oficina de la Fundación Human Rights que dirige Kennedy con este tema de las mascarillas. El hijo de Nati Abascal se compró entre otras cosas un yate de 13 metros de eslora con sus comisiones. Encima bautizó a la embarcación como Feria en honor al titulo nobiliario que ostenta la familia, el del famoso pederasta Duque de Feria. Fue la presidenta de la universidad americana CIS, María Díaz de la Cebosa que es a la vez la persona que lleva en España la fundación Human Rights que preside Kennedy la que le facilitó al imputado Luis Medina el teléfono de Carlos Martínez-Almeida, el primo del alcalde de Madrid, José Luis Martínez-Almeida. Los dos empresarios imputados se llevaron 6 millones de euros de un contrato para la compra de material sanitario. El hijo de Naty Abascal y su exsocio, absueltos de estafar al Ayuntamiento de Madrid, todo quedo en agua de borrajas. Le preguntan sobre el SIDA y responde esto: “El presupuesto anual del Instituto Nacional de Alergias y Enfermedades Infecciosas impulsa investigaciones fundamentales; entre los ejemplos se incluyen el desarrollo exitoso de nuevas vacunas contra el VRS, un fármaco aprobado por la FDA que retrasa la aparición de la diabetes tipo 1, una vacuna de ARNm contra el VIH y mucho más. Explique por qué planea detener este trabajo y a quién beneficiará.” Respuesta: “Si se confirma mi nombramiento, espero evaluar todas las agencias y programas para asegurarme de que están cumpliendo la misión de devolver la salud a los estadounidenses.” Las agencias de verificación son un invento, como hemos visto antes, de las grandes multinacionales y estas mismas empresas siguen trabajando sin cortapisas bajo la administración de este supuesto antivacunas que no lo es tal. Estas agencias no nos contaran la verdad jamas y no hablaran de la relación de este Kennedy con los grupos antivacunas que promocionan en verdad la Agenda 2030 y la Nueva era. Ni de esto ni de la La trágica historia de Rosemary, la hermana de J.F. Kennedy a quien su padre mandó a lobotomizar. Yo no me fiaría mucho de una familia que es capaz de realizarle una lobotomía a una pobre joven con problemas derivados de su nacimiento. En el parto no pudo respirar por no dejar que saliera de forma natural esperando casi dos horas por un médico que no llegaba. Una criada mantuvo las piernas cerradas de la madre… Hablamos de una joven con pequeños trastornos de aprendizaje que llegó a socializar con la realeza británica. Fue expulsada de Inglaterra por las declaraciones de su padre que afirmaba “que Reino Unido no podía ganar la guerra y que la democracia había terminado”. Regreso a USA y al final fue recluida en un convento...era incontrolable y una Kennedy incontrolable es un problema de estado. En un articulo de BBC news leemos: “Encerrada en un convento, se volvió desafiante a las restricciones. Las monjas no pudieron controlarla. "Muchas noches", recordó la prima de Rosemary, Ann Gargan, "la escuela llamaba a decir que había desaparecido y la encontraban vagando por las calles a las 2 a.m.". Pronto se supo que Rosemary se estaba escapando, según un compañero paciente que compartió muchos años del confinamiento posterior de Rosemary, para ir a tabernas y encontrarse con hombres en busca de atención, consuelo y sexo, escribió Elizabeth Koehler-Pentacoff en The Missing Kennedy.” Su padre tenía aspiraciones políticas para sus hijos y Rosemary era un peligro así que decidió someterla a una lobotomía con solo 23 años. Seguimos leyendo en BBC news: “Tras perforar agujeros en el cráneo de Rosemary, Freeman insertó un cuchillo y comenzó a cortar los lóbulos frontales de su cerebro. Atada a la mesa, ella estaba despierta y aterrorizada durante el procedimiento. De repente, se quedó en silencio y cayó en la inconsciencia. La operación había sido un catastrófico fracaso. Rosemary quedó sin poder caminar ni hablar. Incluso después de años de terapia, no podía pronunciar más que unas pocas palabras y nunca recuperó completamente el uso de sus extremidades.” Murió en 2005, a los 86 años tras pasar 63 largos años aislada, recluida en centros de internamiento privados sin recibir visitas. Si son capaces de hacer eso con uno de los suyos, que no serán capaces de hacer con un extraño. A continuación se presenta una lista de los principales eventos considerados parte de la «Maldición Kennedy». Si bien es improbable que todos estos eventos fueran resultado de una conspiración contra la familia, es difícil ignorar el fuerte patrón de sincronicidad, también conocido como «coincidencias significativas», asociado con los Kennedy. 1941—Se creía a menudo que Rosemary Kennedy padecía problemas mentales. Algunas fuentes afirmaban que padecía enfermedades mentales, como depresión y esquizofrenia. Debido a sus cambios de humor cada vez más violentos y severos, su padre, Joe Sr., organizó en secreto que se sometiera a una lobotomía. La lobotomía, en cambio, deterioró aún más sus capacidades cognitivas y, como resultado, Rosemary permaneció internada hasta su fallecimiento en 2005. 12 de agosto de 1944—Joseph P. Kennedy, Jr. murió cuando su avión explotó sobre East Suffolk, Inglaterra, como parte del Proyecto Anvil. 13 de mayo de 1948—Kathleen Cavendish, marquesa de Hartington, murió en un accidente aéreo en Francia. 23 de agosto de 1956: Jacqueline Bouvier Kennedy dio a luz a una hija muerta, Arabella. (Aunque está enterrada en el Cementerio Nacional de Arlington junto a sus padres con una placa que dice "Hija", sus padres tenían la intención de llamarla Arabella). 9 de agosto de 1963—Patrick Bouvier Kennedy murió dos días después de su nacimiento prematuro. 22 de noviembre de 1963—El presidente estadounidense John F. Kennedy fue asesinado en Dallas, Texas. Lee Harvey Oswald fue acusado del crimen, pero Jack Ruby lo mató a tiros dos días después, antes de que pudiera celebrarse el juicio. El FBI y la Comisión Warren concluyeron oficialmente que Oswald fue el único asesino. Sin embargo, el Comité Selecto de la Cámara de Representantes de Estados Unidos sobre Asesinatos (HSCA) concluyó que dichas investigaciones presentaban graves deficiencias y que Kennedy probablemente fue asesinado como resultado de una conspiración. 19 de junio de 1964—El senador estadounidense Edward M. “Ted” Kennedy sufrió un accidente aéreo en el que fallecieron uno de sus asesores y el piloto. Fue rescatado de los restos por su colega senador Birch E. Bayh II y pasó semanas hospitalizado recuperándose de una fractura de espalda, un pulmón perforado, costillas rotas y una hemorragia interna. 5 de junio de 1968—El senador estadounidense Robert F.

Washington, D.C. - Departamento de Salud y Servicios Humanos (HHS) y los Institutos Nacionales de Salud (NIH) anunciaron hoy el desarrollo de la plataforma de vacunas universales de próxima generación, Generation Gold Standard, utilizando una plataforma de beta-propioctona (BPL) activada por todovirus. Esta iniciativa representa un cambio decisivo hacia la transparencia, la eficacia y la preparación integral, financiando el desarrollo interno de vacunas universales contra la gripe y el coronavirus de los NIH, incluidos los candidatos BPL-1357 y BPL-24910. Estas vacunas tienen como objetivo proporcionar una protección de amplio espectro contra múltiples cepas de virus propensos a pandemias como la gripe aviar H5N1 y los coronavirus como SARS-CoV-2, SARS-CoV-1, y MERS-CoV. Nuestro compromiso es claro: toda innovación en el desarrollo de vacunas debe basarse en la ciencia y la transparencia del patrón oro, y sometida a los más altos estándares de pruebas de seguridad y eficacia, dijo el secretario del HHS, Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. https://www.hhs.gov/press-room/hhs-nih-announces-generation-gold-standard.html Noticia de 11 de abril de 2025. La FDA aprueba vacuna de ARN mensajero contra la "gripe aviar". La FDA concedió la designación de vía rápida a una vacuna candidata de ARNm autoamplificante (ARCT-2304) para inmunización activa con el fin de proteger contra el subtipo H5N1 de la gripe A, también conocida como gripe aviar. La designación responde a la necesidad no cubierta de prevención del subtipo H5N1, que sigue siendo un riesgo sanitario mundial, y en noviembre de 2024 se inició un ensayo de fase 1 (NCT06602531) de la vacuna. https://www.drugtopics.com/view/fda-grants-fast-track-designation-for-potential-bird-flu-vaccine Robert Kennedy Jr invirtió en varias empresas de terapias genéticas tales como CRISPR Therapeutics y Dragonfly por un lado, mientras advertía de los riesgos esas mismas terapias a través de su Fundación Children's Health Defens por el otro. Dejo de participar en dichas empresas por los conflictos políticos que suponía su cargo sanitario en la Administración Trump no por conflictos éticos por su discurso contradictorio en Children's Health Defense. https://www.fiercebiotech.com/biotech/rfk-jr-will-divest-interests-crispr-tx-dragonfly-if-hhs-role-confirmed-letter Robert Kennedy es un calentólogo que dio un discurso durante el concierto de la misma temática catastrofista llamado Live Earth que organizó David Rothschild y Al Gore entre otros. https://youtube.com/watch?v=KG5zckBejK0&t=26s Robert F. Kennedy Jr. elogió recientemente la Operación Warp Speed, calificándola de "logro extraordinario" y "demostración de liderazgo" del expresidente Donald Trump. Esta declaración supone un cambio notable para Kennedy, que anteriormente había criticado la iniciativa. Sus comentarios se realizaron durante una audiencia en el Senado, destacando las complejidades de la lealtad política y la evolución de las narrativas que rodean el despliegue de la vacuna COVID-19 de la administración Trump. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=xxOhOAXfjZw Robert F. Kennedy Jr: Los negacionistas del cambio climático deben ser castigados por ley Septiembre de 2014 https://www.al.com/news/2014/09/robert_f_kennedy_jr_climate-ch.html Robert Kennedy Jr presidió Waterkeeper, grupo ambientalista que acabó fusionándose con RiverKepper de la que también fue abogado. Ambas organizaciones fueron pioneras en reclamar la "restauración" de los ríos, un eufemismo que en realidad significa la destrucción de presas y otras infraestructuras hidráulicas y energéticas. Modelo que se ha replicado en todo el mundo golpeando especialmente a España. https://es.waterkeeper.org/revistas/volumen-14-n%C3%BAmero-2/deja-que-nuestros-r%C3%ADos-corran-libres/ Robert Kennedy Jr fue miembro y directivo del grupo ambientalista Riverkeeper.

Como secretario de Sanidad, RFK Jr. dijo que desinvertiría en varias empresas -incluidas CRISPR Therapeutics y Dragonfly Therapeutics- en un plazo de 90 días, según una carta de información presentada el 21 de enero ante la Oficina de Ética Gubernamental de Estados Unidos.

Aaron McIntire examines the fading grip of climate alarmism, from the 1970s global cooling fears to Al Gore's warming predictions and Greta Thunberg's emotional outbursts over "climate change." Joined by Dr. Cal Beisner of the Cornwall Alliance, they discuss why climate models fail, why human flourishing trumps catastrophic narratives, and how developing nations prioritize energy over alarmist policies. Plus, a look at the Cornwall Alliance's book, Climate and Energy: The Case for Realism. AM Update, Aaron McIntire, climate change, global warming, Greta Thunberg, Al Gore, Cornwall Alliance, Cal Beisner, human flourishing, energy policy, climate models, CO2
In this urgent and hard-hitting talk, Nobel Laureate Al Gore thoroughly dismantles the fossil fuel industry's narrative of "climate realism," contrasting their misleading claims with the remarkable advancements in renewable energy. Drawing on data showing clear signs of progress across the world, Gore makes a powerful case that we already have everything needed to solve the climate crisis — and reminds us of what the most valuable renewable resource actually is.Want to help shape TED's shows going forward?

Pernahkah Anda duduk dalam sebuah presentasi yang terasa seperti penyampaian data tanpa akhir, yang gagal menginspirasi atau bahkan sekadar mempertahankan perhatian Anda? Kita semua pernah mengalaminya. Namun, bagaimana jika setiap presentasi yang Anda berikan memiliki kekuatan untuk tidak hanya menginformasikan, tetapi juga untuk mentransformasikan? Dalam episode ini, kita akan menyelami filosofi revolusioner dari Nancy Duarte, seorang ahli komunikasi yang telah membentuk narasi bagi beberapa merek dan pemikir paling berpengaruh di dunia, mulai dari Apple hingga Al Gore. Kita akan mengungkap bagaimana pendekatannya mengubah presentasi dari monolog yang membosankan menjadi dialog yang menggerakkan perubahan nyata dan bertahan lama. Inti dari metodologi Duarte adalah pergeseran paradigma yang kuat: Anda bukanlah pahlawan dalam cerita Anda, audienslah pahlawannya. Dengan memposisikan diri Anda sebagai seorang mentor—seperti Yoda bagi Luke Skywalker—Anda dapat membimbing audiens melalui sebuah perjalanan. Kerangka kerja ini dibangun di atas kontras dinamis antara "apa yang ada" (kenyataan audiens saat ini yang penuh tantangan) dan "apa yang bisa terjadi" (visi masa depan yang lebih cerah yang ditawarkan oleh ide Anda). Struktur naratif yang kuat ini menciptakan ketegangan yang memikat, mempertahankan keterlibatan, dan secara elegan mengatasi penolakan audiens terhadap perubahan. Bergabunglah bersama kami saat kami membedah perangkat praktis yang dapat Anda gunakan untuk menerapkan strategi ini. Kita akan membahas cara merumuskan "Big Idea™" yang tajam sebagai inti pesan Anda, menyeimbangkan daya tarik analitis dan emosional untuk persuasi maksimal, dan menciptakan "Momen S.T.A.R." (Sesuatu yang Akan Selalu Mereka Ingat) yang tak terlupakan. Baik Anda seorang pemimpin yang ingin mengartikulasikan visi, seorang manajer yang ingin menginspirasi tim, atau siapa pun yang ingin membuat ide-ide Anda beresonansi, episode ini akan memberi Anda cetak biru untuk mengubah cara Anda berkomunikasi selamanya. Bersiaplah untuk berhenti hanya menyajikan informasi dan mulailah mengkatalisasi perubahan.

You're listening to Burnt Toast! Today, my conversation is with Lauren Leavell. Lauren is a weight neutral fitness professional and content creator. She focuses on creating inclusive environments for movement and exercise to help clients feel strong and confident, and previously joined us on the podcast back in 2023. Lauren is an oasis in a sea of toxic online fitness and wellness culture. And it has been super toxic lately! So I asked Lauren to come on and chat with us about the recent dramas happening on Tiktok and Instagram.Yes, we get into the girl who said nobody over 200 pounds should take Pilates.We also talk about how to stay grounded when this noise is happening online, and how to seek out inclusive movement spaces—whatever that looks like for you.

It was one of my favorite conversations. It was two years ago that you were here before, I think.LaurenI know! Honestly, we could have a conversation once a month about toxic fitness stuff. VirginiaThere's always something. For anyone who missed your first appearance and has missed the 72,000 times I say “I love Lauren's workouts,” can you introduce yourself?LaurenI am Lauren Leavell. I am a certified personal trainer and group fitness instructor. I've been doing that for almost a decade at this point, which is so wild. I'm not tired of it yet, which is amazing for me. I have a virtual program online, and Virginia is a member of tat community.VirginiaA groupie.LaurenHonestly, yes. Love that. I teach live classes and on demand classes. All of them are body neutral, and most of them are lower impact, because we're here for a good time and a long time. And I also have private training clients who I program Stronger Together workouts for.When I'm not doing that, I'm apparently complaining on the Internet. Well, I try not to complain too much on the Internet. And stalking cats in my neighborhood.VirginiaYou are my favorite Internet cat lady.LaurenHuge, huge accolades here.VirginiaFavorite Internet cat lady. That should be in your bio. And you are talking to us from France right now! Do you want to talk about that?LaurenI'm really leaning into my Sagittarius lifestyle. I just picked up my life in Philadelphia and decided to move to France. People keep asking me, why? And my answer is, why not? My partner and I are child-free except for our two beautiful cat daughters. But they're pretty easy to move. So we packed up our lives and moved to France. We are still really new here, really getting into it. And I'm genuinely just so excited for all the new stimuli. VirginiaOf course for folks listening to this episode, it is now mid-June, so we're going to talk about something that happened a month ago, and it is forgotten in the attention span of the Internet. But I still think it's very important to record for posterity that this happened. So Lauren, can you walk us through what I'm going to call Pilatesgate.LaurenPilatesgate occurred when a woman decided to come on TikTok, and really just rant. You can tell that she was a little bit amped up. She was talking about how she did not believe that people in larger bodies—specifically, if you are over 200 pounds—you should not be in a Pilates level two class. She was really insistent, and talked about how you should be doing cardio or just going to the gym. And then she followed up with: “You also shouldn't be a fitness instructor if you have a gut.” Like, what's going on? The overall tone of it was she was extremely agitated. VirginiaShe felt this deeply.LaurenShe was very bothered. Mind you, the person saying this, obviously, is not in a fat body. She's not in a larger body. I think the tone of her video and how agitated she was is what really sparked the conversation around size inclusivity and fitness and blatant fatphobia and anti-fat bias. But it all started with someone having a very agitated car rant that I'm sure she didn't think would go the way that it went.VirginiaI think she thought people were going to be like, Hell yeah! Thanks for saying the truth. I think she thought there was going to be this moment of recognition that she had spoken something. But I would love to even just know the backstory. I assume she just walked into a Pilates class and saw a fat person and lost her mind? I can't quite understand what series of events triggered the car rant, because I can't imagine having really any experience in my daily life that I would be like, “That was so terrible I need to take to the internet and say my piece about it,” and to have the experience be…I observed another human being.LaurenRight? I think that from from her follow up video it seems like she's been doing Pilates for a while, and maybe was agitated that someone was either getting more attention or she just maybe felt some type of way in general.VirginiaI wonder if the fat person was better at Pilates than her, and that made her feel bad.LaurenIt could be anything. Just like you said, like the presence of being there, maybe even having a conversation with a teacher—something triggered her. It could have even be been seeing something online of like a fat person doing Pilates as an instructor. I know plenty of fat Pilates instructors.And the apology videos were really like, “I need to work on myself.” And also, you know…you could have worked on yourself before releasing that rant into the internet space.VirginiaI give her one tiny point for how it is a very full apology video. So often an apology video is like, “I'm sorry people were upset,” you know? Like, “I'm sorry that this bothered you.” And she is like, I truly apologize. I have to work on myself. This is bad. She does own it to a certain degree.LaurenI think it's also because she experienced consequences. Her membership was revoked and she either lost her job, or at least is on punishment from her job.VirginiaWhich is correct! She should experience consequences. Plus there was a tidal wave of of videos coming out in response to her first one being like, what is wrong with you? This is a terrible thing. The backlash was quick and universal. I didn't see a lot of support content for her. I saw just a tidal wave of people being like, what the fuck?LaurenI think the people who would have maybe supported that kept their mouths shut because they saw what was happening. There are people who support that message and feel exactly the same. It was almost like she was like, channeling that type of rage. And I think, again, the agitation is what sets this video apart from every other video that's released 500 times a day on my FYP somewhere about people expressing anti-fat bias in fitness spaces, right?VirginiaShe said the thing that is often implied, and she said it very loudly. She also said it so righteously. It was a righteous anger in the first video. That, I think, was what was startling about it, I was glad to see the backlash—although, yes, as you're saying, there is so much more out there. And really she looks like she is 12 years old. I think she's like 23 or something. So this is a literal child who has had a tantrum. That happens every day, that some young 20 somethings says a fatphobic thing, right?LaurenI mean, actually, I was, at one point, a young 20 something saying fatphobic things to myself and out in the ether.VirginiaFrom my esteemed wisdom as a 44 year old, I try to be like, Thank God Tiktok didn't exist when I was 23! Thank God there's no record of the things I said and thought as a 23 year old. So, okay, babygirl, you did this and we hope you really do do the work. But as you're saying, she said something that is frequently echoed and reinforced by fitness influencers all over Al Gore's internet.You sent me a Tiktok by a fitness influencer Melania Antuchas, who posts as FitByMa. We see her leaning into the camera at a very uncomfortable-looking angle, saying, “If you don't like the way I train or instruct, don't come to my class because I'm going to push you to be your best self and you just need to take it,” basically. Can we unpack the toxicity of this kind of messaging? Because I do think this kind of messaging is what begets the angsty 23-year-old being appalled that there's a fat person in her Pilates class.LaurenYes, totally. I think that that person may actually be like an Internet predecessor to the rant, if I'm going to be honest. This person's content, against my own will, has been showing up frequently.VirginiaThank you for your service, by the way, that you have to consume all this fitness content, and see all of this.LaurenI've been seeing a lot of this person's videos, and a lot of Pilates instructors have actually had a lot to say about it, because what she's pitching as Pilates is not traditional Pilates, either mat or reformer. It's inspired by, but we really shouldn't be calling it that. And some people were like, “It seems like more of a barre class.” And I'm like, get my name out of your mouth. What are you talking about?VirginiaYou're like, don't you make me take her! I don't want her!LaurenYes, please don't come over here with this. So I think it's a combination of the fact that maybe her workouts feel a little mislabeled to a lot of people who are professionals in the field, and then her teaching style is extremely intense. And that's really what I would love to get into. Because I think if you've been a casual fitness person, you have experienced these type of intense motivational instructors and and maybe when we rewind to when we were the age of the ranter, that would have worked. That does work on a lot of people. What this person is saying is if you don't like it, don't come to my class. There are always going to be people who love a punishing, intense type of motivation because they never experienced anything else. They don't know how to find motivation or how to exercise without the presence of punishment.VirginiaThis is certainly endemic of a lot of CrossFit culture, a lot of boot camp culture. There are a lot of fitness spaces that are really built around this. Like, “no pain, no gain.” You've got to leave it all on the mat. You've got to always show up and give 200% no matter what. And I guess that is, as you're saying, motivating to some people.LaurenTell me about your childhood, if that's what you like. You know? And it's also a result of the United States culture in general, it is extremely punishing. And if we really stop and interrogate why we enjoy this, and why we only feel motivated by this intensity and someone getting up in our face, then we might have to slowly chip away at all the other places where softness has been denied and love and openness and acceptance have been denied. But it's to make you stronger. It's to make you better.VirginiaIt's like capitalism as a workout. LaurenIt's definitely a reflection of that type of culture, because some people maybe won't be motivated by anything softer, because they've never experienced softness.VirginiaAnd they've never been given permission to exist in a more multifaceted way, like you're either successful or you're not. You can either take it or you can't.LaurenAnd pain leads to success, right? Like, even though we all know—well, many of us know that—a lot of successful people have done no no suffering to get there. Other people have done the suffering for them.VirginiaExactly. It's just where you're born, which family you're born into, that lead to the success. The idea that there are no excuses, which was a recurring theme of her videos. Like, you're going to push yourself to be your best self or I'm going to push you to be your best self. That whole thing was so interesting to me because it was like, so you're not allowed to just have a headache one day? You're not allowed to be a neurodivergent person who has different needs and bandwidth? You're not allowed to be human, really, in this in this context.LaurenNo, not at all. And it really shows. I mean, I get it. And I have seen it over and over. But the ableism that exists in fitness spaces is almost like you're almost unable to, untangle them in so many spaces. And that's part of my job. It's been really, really, really interesting to be someone who's attempting to untangle those because how can I be motivational to people who have never experienced motivation outside of the intensity and the ableism and the pushing past. That's why I'm always talking about how unserious it is. Because this woman is telling me I have no excuses, and I have to go 100%. Like, girl, this is literally a 45 minute class. What are you talking about? This is 45 minutes of my life. Like, yes, with consistency you'll get results from fitness. And those don't have to be aesthetic! You will get your results from fitness if you are consistently doing a 45 minute workout. But consistently doing it doesn't mean doing it 100% every time.VirginiaRight? And let's not forget, we're just rolling around on a floor. LaurenWe're rolling around on the floor! Hopefully in a good class, we're mimicking movements that we would like do in our lives that would cause our bodies to meet those muscles. So if I'm moving furniture, it's usually not intensely at a speed run, I just need to be able to pick up my side of the couch! VirginiaAnd move it three feet and put it back down again.LaurenI think the the intensity of fitness is often overblown. And of course, this is hard to say as a fitness instructor who's not thin, because they'll be like, well, that's why you're fat.I think it's really deeply psychologically baked into fitness for a lot of people, that it has to be horrible. And that's my first experience with working out. Like, I thought it had to be horrible. Because I grew up in a family of women who only worked out when they needed to change their bodies. So it was like, oh my gosh. Remember when I was like, seriously working out for six months? It was always a sprint,VirginiaYou can't sustain the Mean Girl workout. Like, that's not a way to live. Or if you can, it's a warning sign that you can live with that much punishment for that long. LaurenYeah, definitely. Growing up, I thought that that's what all workouts were going to be. I did a lot of Stairmaster in my early 20s.VirginiaThe most Mean Girl of all cardio equipment.LaurenYes, I mean, that should have been a warning sign. But, I do think about this now, you know, I'm walking up a ton of stairs every day. I'm like, okay, well, do I need to go on a stairmaster, or am I able to just live my life and have to carry my groceries upstairs?VirginiaRight? I mean, being able to climb stairs is useful. And it's always really hard.LaurenA number one goal of people when I talk to folks, they're like, “I just want to be not winded when I go up and down stairs.” I'm like, I have horrible news for you.VirginiaIt's never going to happen.LaurenIt's a situational thing. You're dressed in regular clothes, carrying up three bags of groceries after carrying them in from your car, or not being warmed up, or carrying, a baby in a baby carrier, those baby carriers that are 400 pounds. Yeah, you're going to be winded.VirginiaI've lived in a fifth floor walk up in a sixth floor walk up, and I never got better at the stairs in the years I lived in those apartments. And I was a skinny 20 something when I was doing that. It never got easier, not one day.LaurenLiterally being out of breath is a sign that we're working those cardiovascular muscles. Just let them be out of breath real quick.VirginiaThat's a really helpful reframing. We jumped so aggressively into chatting about all of this that we should probably spend another beat for anyone who's confused, explaining that people who weigh over 200 pounds are allowed to do Pilates! Can you just explain why what she was saying was total bullshit? LaurenTotally. I think that people, at any weight, can do whatever workout they want or don't want to do. And I think particularly if you're a woman or socialized as a woman there are always these imaginary limitations on what your weight should be. And I think that that's really where the 200 pound conversation came in, right? Because for a not-fat woman, anything over that weight is really unfathomable to them. I definitely remember conversations around that within my own household of like, oh, we can't possibly weigh over this number. And I'm sitting there, like…VirginiaCan you not? Because I'm doing it. Here I am.LaurenSo I think that that's really where that number came from. She pulled out a number that she thought was just like, beyond anything. And I think it's also important to remember that so often, when people are asked to assess what people weigh, they have absolutely zero idea.It's really hard for people to tell other people's weight based on how they look. So I think that that was why that number was picked.VirginiaIt sounds so scary.LaurenIn her head, 200 pounds is really, really big and really scary. And going back to weighing whatever anybody weighs, I think Pilates is a great workout for people who are in, all different types of bodies and diverse bodies. Pilates is super low impact in a lot of ways, and really good for folks who have chronic illnesses, particularly like reformer, because it could be recumbent and you're not putting a lot of stress on your joints in the same way. So the idea that this workout that's really almost like super in line with disability and rehabilitation, to say that there's like a weight limit—again, fatphobia, joining in with ableism—is like, so so off base. So deeply off base.VirginiaFat people can do any workout, but Pilates in particular happens to be a workout that can be extremely body inclusive when it's taught well.LaurenExactly. I think that that maybe also added to some of the outrage and and honestly, some of me thinking it was very funny. I'm not someone who regularly weighs myself, but I've always been someone who was extremely heavy, as a person. Even as a child, there were stories about me versus my cousin who was three years older than me and a boy, and how he weighed less than me for most of our childhood. I have always been so solid. And I think growing up, many of us heard like, oh, that person has the body of a swimmer. That person should play volleyball or basketball or whatever. I'm like, what is this body type meant for? Like, shotput? And then I'm teaching Barre, you know? I think it's just so made up. And yes, maybe it's good for people who swim to have long limbs, great. But when we close ourselves off to types of movement based on body types and weight limits, then people have a harder time finding things that they enjoy, because maybe they don't enjoy something that they “look like they should.”VirginiaJust because you don't have long limbs doesn't mean swimming can't bring you a lot of joy.LaurenRight? Just because I don't have long lean muscles doesn't mean I can't teach Barre. The language around Barre and Pilates is always “long and lean.” And I just feel that's so funny as someone who's not long and lean. I love not being long and lean and and enjoying my classes. Some of the outrage did come from that number being named, because it's a misunderstanding of what real people in the real world weigh when you are not around those types of people. But I also think that there are a lot of limitations put on bodies, particularly larger bodies, and what you can and can't do. I have another video that's actually making a resurgence right now, probably because of this conversation that fat people should only do cardio, because if you lift weights, then you might gain more muscle mass, which would increase your scale weight. So you should only do cardio, because that's how you're going to lose weight, which is inaccurate and very boring.VirginiaAnd it's just really drilling into and this was the core of what she was saying. It's the core of that Melania video, that exercise is only a tool for weight management. That you would only exercise to avoid or minimize fatness, and right?LaurenAnd because Pilates “isn't actually good for burning fat,” you definitely shouldn't be doing it if you're fat.VirginiaYeah, you should be at the gym running. And it's completely ignoring the many other reasons we would exercise, the benefits you can actually achieve. Because, as you're saying, weight loss through exercise is a very murky thing for most people. And it's just ignoring all the other reasons you would do it that are more fun.LaurenYeah, like “I like it.” You're allowed to like things! But again, if you're socialized to only know shame and punishment, then the idea that people do things out of pleasure is hard to wrap your mind around.VirginiaSpeaking of shame and punishment, I wrote recently about Andy Elliott, who is actually a sales trainer, but he's also a bodybuilder. He's always cold plunging. He's always recording from a cold thing of water.LaurenAgain, pleasure, right? We can't have warm water. We made this technology, use it.VirginiaNo, no. He's like in Dubai, sitting in a barrel of cold water, posting his rants. And he posted this video showing off his twelve and nine year old daughters and how he had challenged them to get a six pack in less than two months. And they got shredded in two months. Then in this room full of his male sales trainees, he had them take off their sweatshirts and show off their six packs to a room full of men. It's revolting, on so many levels. But one thing I've been thinking about as I had to look at the Andy Elliot crap and then looking at this other crap, these extreme examples of toxic diet culture in some ways, I think, are unhelpful. Because they make us more dismissive of stuff that's not that. It's like, well, it's not that bad. Do you know what I mean?LaurenIt's moving the the spectrum of what's normal and what's not normal.VirginiaSo it's like, “Well, I didn't say 200 pound people can't come to Pilates, so I'm not being fatphobic.” Or “I'm not showing you a nine year old with a six pack, so I'm not being fatphobic.” But it shouldn't have to be that bad!LaurenIt also somewhat negates the fact that most of us are not exposed to the extreme. We're exposed to the more insidious anyway.VirginiaRight? Because the insidious is what your coworker is saying in the break room at lunch about how she's only eating a salad.LaurenIt's the stuff that we get daily exposure to, as opposed to these extremes where most people can point out, like, oh that's wild.VirginiaMaybe don't force your children to get six packs? It's pretty clear cut. On the other hand, I kind of feel like the needle is moving on what is extreme because of the rise of MAGA and MAHA wellness culture. We're unfortunately normalizing a lot of this really intense and harmful rhetoric.LaurenI've been thinking about it a lot, and I think number one, yes. Also the anti-intellectualism. That also helps push these things, because if someone's shouting confidently enough, they could sell anything. You said that person is in a sales job. Like, that's part of that thing. It's psychological. It's not even based in facts. But I think that it's on the rise, for sure, because it's not being checked. And I also think that in that more insidious way, it's on the rise because people are seeking to fly under the radar, and they're seeking safety in their bodies being read as safe.In this super conservative and rise of fascism, falling in line is a way that some people will seek safety, right? But it obviously, when we get into ranking bodies as good and bad and purity testing bodies. Like, if that even exists, that means someone has to be at the bottom. It's very clear that when we're saying take control. Hyper individual. Yeah, I did it, and you could do it, too, applying your situation to other people's. Like, that's not how science works. Number one, that's not how genetics work. And I think that people of all like races, ages, and abilities, you know, will seek safety in flying under the radar in a regime that's getting scarier and more intense. So I think that bodies and fitness is definitely a way that people will get there.VirginiaYeah, it's a logical survival strategy in a really dark time, for sure.LaurenSo I think that that's part of the reason why even people who wouldn't identify as like MAHA are on their health and wellness, and they don't realize how quickly it gets there, but it does pretty instantly. But as someone who is has multiple marginalized identities myself, I often see people who are in similar situations, and I look at them with a lot of compassion because, yeah. Like, if you're disabled, if you're Black, if you're poor, being fat on top of that, you just checked another box for people. And I feel like that is where this intensity comes from all sides. And that's why we're seeing even more diverse voices echoing this type of message, because people are seeking safety, and they might not even know that that's what they're seeking. But I can see it because I get it.VirginiaYes. That breaks my heart, but it is logical when you have those multiple marginalizations. Fatness is the one that you've been conditioned to think you can and should change.LaurenIt's supposed to be fully within your control. And then that's when we dip into disability being within your control. And the idea that you could just take vitamins or do red light or coffee enemas or something, and you're going to cure your your chronic conditions. Like if you haven't tried it, then you know you're not trying hard enough. So I think it's a really slippery slope, and it gets there very quickly.VirginiaYou've mentioned ableism a few times, obviously, because it's really core to this conversation. I'd love to hear a little more about how you think about ability in your classes. Anyone who's taken your class knows how completely different they feel from the Melania version. You've clearly put a lot of thought into how to be inclusive of ability.LaurenI appreciate that. I work really hard, and I try to advertise myself as someone whose classes are many levels or most levels, because I think even saying that something is all levels is not being fully like aware of the scope of people's ability. So I try to be very clear in my communication. I don't know how I got here, personally. Again, the pendulum definitely swung with me. I was someone who I would consider was Orthorexic and all on my organic everything, blah, blah, blah. Particularly when it like was coming down to my PCOS and how much of that was in my control.VirginiaPCOS triggers a lot of rabbit holes.LaurenRight? And, like the fatphobia in my own family mixed with that. But I think at some point it just clicked, like we all have the ability to become disabled if we're not already, you know? We could. And disability is a spectrum. We usually like start checking off more and more boxes towards that. But because ableism is so rampant, most people would never identify something going on as a disability. Wearing glasses, wearing hearing aids, needing captions, needing accommodations. They wouldn't identify those as a disability because it's horrible to be disabled in this world, so we try to avoid saying that.I think realizing I had so many folks coming to me who were burnt out by all the stuff we just spent all this time talking about—and I was burnt out in that world. And that's how I got spit out the other side. I was like, I'm going to do things differently. And more and more and more people started really identifying with that. And I got to know people individually within my memberships, and they shared about what they had going on, and oh my gosh, your classes have been so great because I have POTS, or I have EDS, or I have chronic pain, or I also have PCOS, I have PMDD—all these things.And because I am who I am, and I'm someone who is neurodivergent and I'm a nerd and I want to know what's good for people who have POTS? What's good for people who have blood pressure issues? What would be like a good modification or variation to throw out there to people who might not even know that that's going on with them, because again, our medical system. Like, oh yeah, I get dizzy sometimes. Like, okay, girl, can we elaborate? But I think that just realizing, no matter who it was, every single person in my membership can contribute to my ability to teach better, because if one person says it, 10 people are probably experiencing it. That's why I love the feedback. I love that! That hurt? I have no idea. I have one body. I literally have only this body, right? You have to tell me if something hurts, right? I don't know, that doesn't hurt me. Or that does hurt me, and I don't do it, but that works for you. So you have to tell me. So I think that that's really where it resulted from people being comfortable feeling honest and sharing, and my desire to continue making things feel good and challenging. Because I think that people think you have to sacrifice movement being challenging. Like it can't it can still be challenging and not horrendous and punishing.VirginiaYes, this is what's hard to articulate when I tell people how much I love your classes. This is the needle you're threading. We think of it as so black and white. Either you're someone who wants to go so hard, like the Melania video, or you're someone who's like, exercise needs to feel like a warm bath, or I'm not going to do it. And there is a middle space. There's a huge middle space.LaurenYes. And that's the neutrality of it all, which is yeah, I'm allowed to do this hard thing and and really invest when we're talking about the consistency and no excuses. But if we're talking about a 45 minute workout that you're doing maybe two times a week, and investing in 30 seconds of challenge or discomfort, and investigating how that feels in your body and doing it. And then after six weeks, suddenly, wow, that thing that was uncomfortable six weeks ago is no longer uncomfortable. This new thing was uncomfortable. And that's why I love movement so much. Because I feel like you can not solve, but get to the bottom of, investigate, interrogate and get to know parts of your body. And and I really do feel like the work that we do in 45 minute classes empowers people enough to go out and tell people at their jobs to eff off, you know? Like, it gives people the ability to get to know themselves well enough to know what they're willing to tolerate.VirginiaI feel like when I do your videos, there's always a point where honestly, I might be watering my plants or just lying on the floor, and then there's always a point where I'm actually so in it and pushing really hard. Do you know what I mean? And it's like, it can be both things. I get to choose which is the part that I'm going to be like, yeah, I'm holding this 20 second plank the whole time. I'm going to go for my heavier weights. We're going to do that.LaurenBecause it doesn't need to add up or count for anything, but it always does, even if you're like, I'm just doing this to do something. That just just doing something will still add up and it'll still come up later. And I think it doesn't need to be that serious. It's never that serious.VirginiaAny other fitness trends that are making you especially grumpy right now, or anything good you want to highlight?LaurenI mean, honestly, the backlash to that rant was good, right? There were so many good responses, I actually followed a couple people. I do think people being able to recognize that as blatant anti-fatness was good. It was a good gut check for a lot of people. And I think that that, yeah, it was good for me. That that made me feel, oh, there are seeds of hope.VirginiaNo, we haven't fallen as low as I fear sometimes.LaurenNo, and it's really hard. I've heard Jessamyn Stanley say, like, “Sometimes I don't remember that people act this way.”VirginiaOh God, yeah. You're really still out there being like this?LaurenYes, yes, yes, yes. So I think there was a lot of silly, goofy and and very good responses to that. I love that push and pull that we can hopefully sometimes see and still have this dialog about. I feel like it's really important. And with so many people intentionally losing weight right now, I think it's really important to see people who are not necessarily in traditional fit bodies doing fitness.VirginiaGod, it's so important. ButterLaurenI was going to be funny and say that my Butter is actually butter, now that I'm living in France.VirginiaYou're living in butter country.LaurenI have been trying different butters all the time. Hopefully people who are listening, maybe their weather is getting better. So this is a, this is like a freebie recommendation, but just a little photosynthesis. Now is a really good time to give yourself space, to open up your body again after a winter. Just a little bit of fresh air and a little bit of sunshine and a little bit of phone getting thrown across the room. Which is what I have been trying to do every single day. It really makes a huge difference. So, phone down, photosynthesis up. That is what's getting me through right now. And I hope that other people can enjoy that. Doesn't mean you even have to go outside! Crack a window, allow yourself to be a human being. And it's free. You don't need a discount code for it. You don't need someone to sell it to you on Tiktok shop. You were allowed to be a person existing for completely free.VirginiaYes, so true. That's really good. My Butter, in honor of you, my favorite Internet cat lady is going to be my cats. I'm going to give them a shout out. Licorice and Cheese. We adopted these kittens last year after my kids begged and begged. I mean, I've always been a cat person, but our old man cats had passed away. We had no cats for a while. And they make me so happy. They just are such love bugs. Because the weather is better, I think Cheese has taken your notes about photosynthesis, and so he's regularly trying to jailbreak, to get outside. He's trying to get outside all the time. So we are having a little cat drama in my house where the kids go outside, forget to close the door. Cheese is on it. He's trying to get out there, and we get him back inside. But we have a screen porch, so they do get to go out and live their best life on the screen porch, which makes them really happy.LaurenOh my gosh, I love when they photosynthesize. My new place has lots of big windows and lots and lots of sunshine, and my girls have just been absorbing the sun. And they're both trying to go out on balconies, which we're doing the same thing you're doing, because one pigeon goes by, and my cat's diving.VirginiaAnd I live in the woods where there are a lot of predators. We did have an old man cat who in the final years of his life, we did let outside, because we were like, you've had a good run. And we're thinking quality of life at that point. But these two babies, I want them for many, many years. We can't risk the coyotes. And I think one of them really gets that. Licorice is like the boss of the house, but he's terrified of the outside. I think he recognizes he's a big fish in a little pond, and he needs to stay that way. But Cheese is like, oh, that's my world. I want to get back there?LaurenYes, maybe a harness? Maybe that can be what the kids do this this summer is harness train Cheese.VirginiaWe've never tried the harness with them.LaurenHe's still young. My girls are full grown, and when I put a harness on them, they fall over. They're like, it's the last day they're ever going to live. They're like my bones don't work anymore. What did you do to me? We've been trying to harness train them so that they can go back outside, because we did have a yard before, but I think if he's young and eager to go outside, he might put that harness on. And that's also a good summer project.VirginiaOh, I feel like my 11 year old's going to get really into this. Okay, I'm going to give it a go. I'm going to report back. Well, Lauren, thank you so much. Tell folks where they can find you. How can we support your work?LaurenYou can find me at Lauren Leavell Fitness and I have a membership—the level up fitness membership, where you can join live classes. You can take on demand classes. Again, it's a silly, goofy mood over here. There are classes of different lengths. You don't need a ton of space or equipment. I currently don't have, really any equipment. I have. I have two pound weights.VirginiaI've been enjoying the recent videos where you're like, well, I'm doing this move that I'd normally have a 20 pound weight with a 2 pound weight.LaurenPretend these are 20 pounds! So we really are accepting of all scenarios that you have going on fitness-wise here. And like I said, the replays are there if you're not someone who gets catches live classes, totally get it. Or you just don't want to come to a live class. And then, if you are looking for more, I do have some workout videos on YouTube, which are kind of a sample of my teaching. They're a little less weird than I normally teach. I'm a little bit more polished on YouTube. And then, of course, Lauren Leavell Fitness on Instagram, and Lauren Leavell Fit on TiktokFay, who runs @SellTradePlus, and Big Undies.The Burnt Toast logo is by Deanna Lowe.Our theme music is by Farideh.Tommy Harron is our audio engineer.Thanks for listening and for supporting anti-diet, body liberation journalism!

On this week's Talkhouse Podcast we've got a couple of guys who found huge followings—on the internet and elsewhere—in different ways, but with similar outlooks: Adam Met and Julian Shapiro-Barnum. Met is one-third of the brother band AJR, who've found massive pop hits over the past decade with cheeky but sometimes deceptively deep songs like “Bang” and “World's Smallest Violin.” Perhaps those more into the indie-adjacent world have heard their collaborations with Weezer. But for purposes of this conversation, Met is wearing one of his many other hats, which include Columbia professor, non-profit founder, and as of this week, published author. He just released his first book, AMPLIFY: How to Use the Power of Connection to Engage, Take Action, and Build a Better World, As you may have guessed from the title, it's about action and advocacy, including in the area of the climate crisis, for which Met is an ardent activist. He casually mentions hanging out with Al Gore here, which may be a Talkhouse first. The book aims to provide strategies for folks who want to do their part, which is a noble cause if you ask me. It features pop-culture names like Ben Folds and Jim Gaffigan, in addition to folks more known in the activism world. It's out now. The other half of today's conversation is Met's pal, comedian and internet personality Julian Shapiro-Barnum. An inquisitive guy by nature, Shapiro-Barnum recorded a series of internet videos over the years that were largely conversations with regular people, and during the pandemic he hit on the idea of chatting with children about how they manage to stay positive when everything seems so crazy. That idea became the very popular series Recess Therapy, which is as charming as it sounds—and, it should be noted, launched the “corn kid” into internet fame. These two jump right into a lively conversation about how music and advocacy can go hand in hand, about Julian's various shows, including Recess Therapy and Celebrity Substitute, and lots more.

How does biodynamic farming transform a vineyard into a thriving, interconnected ecosystem? What do wild orchids reveal about the health of a vineyard? How do France's preschool lunches help to create a nation of gourmets? In this episode of the Unreserved Wine Talk podcast, I'm chatting with Caro Feely, author of the terrific memoir Grape Expectations: A Family's Vineyard Adventure in France. You can find the wines we discussed at https://www.nataliemaclean.com/winepicks Giveaway Three of you are going to win a copy of her terrific book, Grape Adventures. To qualify, all you have to do is email me at natalie@nataliemaclean.com and let me know that you've posted a review of the podcast. I'll choose three people randomly from those who contact me. Good luck! Highlights How did Caro's daughter's medical emergency shape her perspective on risk? Why did Caro feel like a bad mom in the early years of the winery? How has living in France influenced Caro's approach to food and wine? When did Caro realize the wine business was becoming financially viable? What are some of the most interesting aspects of biodynamics? What's the significance of wild orchids in a vineyard? Which wine would Caro pair with her favourite childhood food, marmalade on toast? Why would Caro want to share a bottle of wine with Al Gore? Key Takeaways As Caro explains, often biodynamics is just picked on as a woo woo, but really, it's about listening to your land and being present. Biodynamics is organics, plus. It's essentially three things: It's working with plant and animal-based sprays to keep the vineyard healthy, using the biodynamic calendar to do things at the right moment. It's about listening to what's going on in the sky. We all notice the sun, but all the other bodies in the sky also have an impact. Lunatic comes from the fact that the moon does have an effect on us. The final thing is to think of your farm as a whole farm system as a living thing where everything is connected. We can't just look at the vine on its own, like a unit of production. It is a living thing, and it is a vibrant living environment. Caro says that when they bought the farm in 2005, it was conventionally farmed. They started organic farming and in 2008 the wild orchids came back. The systemic fungicides had worked their way out of the soil. Essentially, our soil health was coming back. The mycorrhizae, the fungi growing symbiotically with the roots of the vine, helps them to extend their network, to get more nutrients. However, mycorrhizae will not be there if you're using systemic fungicides. Caro loves France's respect for food and for taking time to enjoy it. There's a tradition in the country where everybody, no matter what they do, is somewhat of a gourmet and knows about food and wine. She thinks it does go back to schools with their three-course lunch when they're two and a half at preschool. About Caro Feely Caro Feely is a writer, yoga teacher, wine educator and organic farmer. She leads authentic, personalized and educative wine tours, wine courses, walking tours and yoga retreats near Bordeaux in France. She is a published author, an engaging speaker, a registered Yoga Alliance yoga teacher, a WSET* wine educator, and a professional with many years of workshop, presentation, teaching, and management experience. Caro offers accommodation, tours and yoga at her organic farm in Saussignac. To learn more, visit https://www.nataliemaclean.com/339.

If legacy is defined by the choices we make today, how can Marketers and communicators reframe "business as usual" to align with planetary survival before it's too late? In this episode of Can Marketing Save the Planet? we welcome back Sangeeta Waldron, a communications expert, three times published author, and Founder of Serendipity PR and Media. Sangeeta discusses her latest book, ‘What Will Your Legacy Be?' - expanding on her previous book by reaching a broader audience beyond the business and PR world. It's a book that is so easy to get lost in and a wonderful, empowering hope filled read - reminding us just how much collective climate action is taking place across the world by people from all walks of life. The book features 36 global conversations with scientists, indigenous leaders, business professionals and activists all working toward meaningful environmental change. Sangeeta shares her learnings from her research and writing journey and the moment she realised what she was creating was a book of hope. She tells us, "if you don't have hope, how will you change anything? If you just give up with despair, you're not going to make change." This ethos drives her book, emphasising the power of storytelling in raising awareness and letting people know that they too can take action. Sangeeta explains that a big takeaway from the book was, it made her realise that legacy starts young - the point when you make begin making choices, she shares, “legacy is no longer what we're thinking about as we get older, legacy is now as young as the age of 14, once you can make your own informed choices in what you're buying and doing, that's your legacy, because that is now connected to your carbon footprint.” We discuss many areas in this episode - from the hidden climate cost of war, where conflicts disrupt weather patterns and food systems, to nature's intelligence and how ecosystems thrive on balance, a principle humans have ignored. We dive into the important role of local journalism in educating and empowering community action, and how businesses must adapt for example, seasonal marketing and supply chains need climate-conscious strategies, yet, these aren't currently happening. Sangeeta also shares her transformative experience with Al Gore's Climate Reality Project, underscoring the need for global collaboration. Despite political and corporate resistance, she remains hopeful, urging communicators to speak boldly about the climate crisis. Reflecting on her mission, she explains, "I wrote this book not for the converted, but for those who have no idea, or maybe aren't even interested - because the climate crisis is interconnected with everything." Tune in as we talk to Sangeeta about: How we should learn from indigenous wisdom, where sustainable practices are rooted in reciprocity, something that can guide modern solutions. The critical role of local media and their position and responsibility to inform, tell the truth and build community resilience. The need for strategic thinking when it comes to marketing in today's operating environment, we can't just keep doing what we're doing. How we need conversations which spark change (beyond the echo chamber), and create ripples of action. How everyone has the opportunity to make changes and take action – one person can do so much. For more information, connect with Sangeeta via LinkedIn - and her book can be found globally, in all good bookshops and online, via booksellers.

Today, we're taking a look at a predecessor to DOGE: The Reinventing Government project (officially known as the NPR, for National Partnership for Reinventing Government). The NPR ran for almost the full duration of President Bill Clinton's two terms, and led to the elimination of over 100 programs and over 250,000 federal jobs.Both NPR and DOGE are case studies in a long history of government reform efforts — some more successful than others. Our guest is John Kamensky, who served as Vice President Al Gore's deputy for the National Performance Review (NPR) for eight years. Kamensky was colloquially known as “Mr. Checklist” for his work organizing the Reinventing Government initiative.Kamensky is a clear-eyed observer, and he doesn't hedge about NPR's failures and missed opportunities. In some ways, the Reinventing Government Initiative was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to cut headcount, spending, and regulation at the end of the Cold War and change the way the government operated.We discuss:* Did the NPR actually work?* What was the Board of Tea Experts?* Why was the federal government subsidizing mohair?* NPR made the federal workforce older. Was that bad?* What doesn't Elon understand about the federal government?You can find the transcript for this conversation at www.statecraft.pub. This is a public episode.

Trump is sending a clear message: he's not going away quietly. “ If you read The Washington Post, even The Wall Street Journal, but especially The New York Times, the question is, can MAGA survive after Trump steps down? “ There's arguments on both sides whether a popular movement can survive its creators. … Al Gore won the popular vote in 2000 to succeed him. And what did Barack Obama do? He repudiated Clintonism and the Democratic Leadership Council. And he went hard to the Left. And the result of that is we got a destroyed or an irrelevant Democratic Party.” 00:00 Introduction: Is Trump a Lame Duck? 00:23 Trump's Media Trolling and Third Term Speculation 01:29 Historical Context: Movements and Their Leaders 01:52 Reaganism and Its Aftermath 02:49 Clintonism and Obama's Shift 03:28 The Future of MAGA: DeSantis and Beyond 05:46 Conclusion: The Enduring MAGA Ideology Learn more about your ad choices.

In 1998, the United States Congress tried to tame the wild internet with a new law: the Digital Millennium Copyright Act. But buried in its fine print was a provision that would end up giving tech giants ultimate legal protection and control, and stop innovators from fixing what's broken. Host Cory Doctorow traces how a law written for a different era led to the arrest of a researcher, became the playbook for Meta's enshittification, and lets platforms degrade your online life today — protecting them while they do it. Guests in this episode include Seth Schoen and Pam Samuelson. Archival recordings feature Dmitry Sklyarov, Bruce Lehman, Al Gore, and Steve Sipress.
[WEEKEND RECAP 05-11-25] Instead of reporting the good news, CNBC's headline read:“Private payroll growth slowed to 62,000 in April, well below expectations”To fully understand the job numbers, one must note that the government massively cut Fed jobs and still outperformed expectations. However, CNBC couldn't report the good news. Speaking of the irony of numbers, the day Al Gore was born there were 7000 polar bears on Earth. Today, only 26,000 remain.How about these numbers?Government spending dropped 5.1% in the first quarter. That is a reason to celebrate, and I have to wonder if this is the first time this has happened in modern times.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-kevin-jackson-show--2896352/support.

After studying law, Daniel Pink transitioned into politics, serving as the chief speechwriter for Vice President Al Gore. However, he soon felt unfulfilled and realized his true calling wasn't in a structured career with defined rules, but in writing. Despite the uncertainty, he made the leap, leaving politics behind to pursue writing full-time. This decision led to multiple bestselling books, including his latest, The Power of Regret. In this episode, Daniel joins Ilana to discuss how embracing regret, rather than avoiding it, leads to profound growth and how we can turn our past decisions into catalysts for a better future. Daniel Pink is a bestselling author and speaker known for his work on business, work, and human behavior. His books have been translated into 46 languages and have sold millions of copies worldwide.

Join Jim and Greg for Thursday's 3 Martini Lunch as they react to a new climate report that undercuts years of doomsday predictions, economic numbers that show a slight contraction in the first quarter, and the Democratic National Committee using identity politics in an attempt to oust David Hogg from party leadership.First, they spotlight a new study from the University of Exeter revealing that polar ice levels have remained largely stable over the past 20 years. The report supports research suggesting climate patterns are cyclical, with polar ice naturally growing and receding. Jim and Greg contrast these findings with decades of dire climate forecasts from Al Gore and others.Next, they break down the U.S. GDP decline of 0.3 percent in the first quarter. They explain how the drop was mainly caused by a surge in imports ahead of President Trump's tariffs. Without the rush of incoming goods, GDP likely would have risen more than three percent. What does this say about the current state of the U.S. economy and where it is headed?Finally, they have a lot of fun watching the Democratic National Committee turn to identity politics in it's latest, obvious attempt to run David Hogg out of its leadership. There is now a challenge to Hogg's election back in February. One of the candidates he defeated says the election process was unfair to women of color. Jim and Greg have some fun imagining what the DNC will look like if this woke approach is followed to its natural conclusion.Please visit our great sponsors:It's free, online, and easy to start—no strings attached.

Climactic is an early-stage venture fund investing in the energy, AI, automation, and robotics sectors to address climate change and its effects. It is backed by folks like Chris Sacca, Reid Hoffman, Mio Partners, and StepStone.Prior to Climactic, Josh co-founded Freestyle Capital, where he sourced or invested in the unicorns: Airtable, Patreon, Betterup, and Intercom. He was a pioneer in the early days of the Internet where he co-founded Spinner, the first Internet music startup, acquired by AOL for $320M, and Crackle, a viral video startup, acquired by Sony for $65M. Josh's commitment to the environment is long-standing; he started a nonprofit app in 2014 to connect influencers (NBA, Guns N Roses, Mark Ruffalo, Al Gore, Evan Williams) to the most important climate actions from the leading nonprofits. --Here are six topics we covered in the podcast:Origins with Rock Stars and PresidentsJosh Felser co-founded ClimateX, connecting users to 100+ environmental nonprofits with partners like Al Gore, Guns N' Roses, and the NBA.Why He Left Traditional VCAfter success at Freestyle Capital, COVID and a five-month role in California's government led Josh to shift from consumer tech to climate venture, realizing business's role in systemic change.Climactic's EvolutionJosh and Raj Kapoor launched Climactic as a B2B climate tech fund, later narrowing their focus to AI and automation for enterprise sustainability and profitability.Two Portfolio BetsClimactic invested in Grit (robotics for faster, cheaper solar installs) and Copper (battery-integrated induction stoves for apartment electrification).Climate Messaging in the MAGA EraJosh advocates re-framing climate language—e.g., using “conservation” over “environmentalism”—to resonate with conservative audiences without losing authenticity.Personal WellnessJosh finds balance through humor, avoiding the 5 AM club, emotional resilience, and grounding reminders like a Buddha statue at his Stinson Beach home.--
Segment 1 • The death of the Pope signals the likely election of a liberal leader. • The papacy's doctrinal errors, based on tradition and magisterium, mislead millions about salvation. • Softened evangelical perspectives, like Russell Moore's, fail to address the papacy's eternal consequences. Segment 2 • Melito of Sardis' 2nd-century sermon contrasts with today's shallow Easter preaching. • Modern sermons are moralistic, neglecting the true gospel of Christ's sacrifice. • A return to gospel-centered, Christ-focused preaching is essential to understand Easter's real significance. Segment 3 • 90% of pastors affirm climate change, but many Christians are unsure about the issue. • Dr. Jason Lisle tackles climate change from a biblical and scientific perspective in a Fortis webinar. • The narrative of human-caused climate change is shaky, with natural cycles and past periods of warming showing no human influence. Segment 4 • Al Gore's climate predictions failed, and the sun's cycles are a bigger factor in climate changes. • Water vapor and clouds, not CO2, account for 75% of the greenhouse effect. • The human contribution to CO2 is small, and the panic surrounding it is built on weak claims. – Preorder the new book, Lies My Therapist Told Me, by Fortis Institute Fellow Dr. Greg Gifford now! https://www.harpercollins.com/pages/liesmytherapisttoldme – Thanks for listening!

Brad Zerbo returns for another late-night edition of WWG1WGA After Dark, delivering a spirited rundown of international intrigue, domestic policy wins, and globalist fear-mongering in spectacular meltdown mode. The episode kicks off with Trump's latest comments on Ukraine, where he hints a peace deal with Russia may already be within reach, if Zelensky can get out of the way. Brad highlights Trump's strategic negotiation style, recalling parallels with North Korea and underscoring the value of strong leadership on the world stage. Back home, the deportation of criminal foreign nationals, including the curious case of “Killmore”, sparks a reflection on psychological ops, legacy media lies, and Trump's methodical cleanup efforts at home. From ICE roundups to slashing DOJ grant waste and cutting government bloat, Brad lays out how reforms are rolling fast. Shifting gears, the show spotlights Elon Musk's quiet pivot out of Doge leadership, the rise of decentralization, and why the movement doesn't need a savior, it just needs solid systems. He also calls out climate fraud in a brilliant segment dissecting Al Gore's long-running fear campaign, complete with forgotten predictions, beachfront property purchases, and a savage Dan Peña clip that rips the green grift apart. Topping it off: Cuomo gets heckled, musicians like Cherie Currie rage against the regime, and globalist ghouls like Al Gore rage against their dwindling influence. Brad wraps it up with a strong defense of CO₂, plant life, and your right to breathe free. This one's a masterclass in energy, sarcasm, and late-night truth bombs...classic After Dark.

What happens when the US tears up the rulebook on global trade? And what does that mean for the planet? Plus: what on earth is happening in Greenland? And does it really signal an unlikely MAGA embrace of climate science?In this urgent and wide-ranging episode, Christiana Figueres, Tom Rivett-Carnac and Paul Dickinson explore the fallout from Trump's new global tariffs, reflect on the environmental movement's complex relationship with free trade, and ask what this moment tells us about democracy, power and inequality.Later, Christiana shares highlights from a timely conversation she recently had in Paris, with former US Vice President Al Gore and France's Special Representative for COP21 Laurence Tubiana. Together, they consider the impact of money in politics, the poly-solutions to our state of polycrisis, and the importance of staying (stubbornly) optimistic.Learn more ⚖️ The New Civil Liberties Alliance Complaint for Injunctive and Declaratory Relief
In this conversation, Marc Morano discusses the current state of climate policy in the United States, focusing on the challenges posed by funding and congressional action. He highlights recent global trends where countries are moving away from strict climate regulations, particularly the UK Conservative Party's decision to abandon net zero commitments. Morano emphasizes the significance of the endangerment finding and its implications for U.S. climate policy, as well as the role of the EPA in reconsidering various regulations. He critiques the bureaucratic control over environmental policies and advocates for a return to common sense regulations that do not stifle industry. The discussion also touches on the political landscape and the shift in leadership regarding climate issues, concluding with a call for a more democratic approach to environmental regulations.
