Survivor AU: Redemption Week 4 Exit Interviews Australian Survivor: Redemption is back with another week of blindsides, bold moves, and heartbreak as host Mike Bloom sits down for exclusive exit interviews with stand-out competitors Aisha and Faith. In these revealing chats, Mike uncovers the real stories behind two of the most dramatic pre-merge exits of the season—both orchestrated by savvy returning players. From risky challenge throws to missed idol plays, this episode peels back the layers on what really happens when the game flips on its head. This episode, the chaos ramps up as tribe dynamics shift and trust erodes. Aisha reflects on the fateful tribal where she holds an idol she won't play out of loyalty, only to be sent home in a move she calls both impressive and humbling. She breaks down her alliances with Cameron, Lottie, and Richard, how a misfired challenge throw put her in the crosshairs, and why she underestimated the “Beauty and the Beast” alliance. Faith takes us inside her surprise boot, giving context to her relationship with Mark—the alliance's power struggles, her reputation for honest confessionals, and how cross-tribe connections sealed her fate. Both castaways reckon with the sting of trusting the wrong people and the razor-thin margins of Survivor strategy. Idol hesitation: Aisha details why she wouldn't play Blanche's idol at Tribal—and how the fast-paced vote left both idols out of play. Challenge drama: Both Aisha and her allies attempt to throw challenges to control their fates, but plans backfire spectacularly. Honest gameplay: Faith's direct confessions—like warning Johnson or her exchange with Mark—spark fiery camp reactions and influence the vote. Power struggles: The tension between Faith and Mark comes to a head, exposing how controlling alliances can splinter under pressure. Alliance flips: Listeners get insight on how relationships evolve and when trusting old allies becomes a fatal flaw. Will future castaways learn from these pivotal exits, or is throwing a challenge still a tempting risk? What happens when honesty at camp becomes a double-edged sword?

Washington State awarded a number of tribes almost $18 million for clean energy projects — from solar installations to electric fishing and research boat conversions. It is one of the alternative funding sources as tribes and tribal economic development ventures scramble to fill a void following the withdrawal of some $1.5 billion in federal dollars. We'll get an update on where clean energy infrastructure and development trends are headed in the absence of any new federal money. GUESTS David Harper (Mojave from the Colorado River Indian Tribes), CEO of Huurav Energy John Lewis (Gila River Indian Community), managing director for Native American Energy at Avant Energy Miacel Spotted Elk (Navajo and Northern Cheyenne), Indigenous affairs reporter at Grist Shaun Tsabetsaye (Zuni), head of tribal technical assistance and project development for the Alliance for Tribal Clean Energy Break 1 Music: Lightning Scarred Heart (song) Cheryl L’Hirondelle and Friends (artist) Why the Caged Bird Sings (album) Break 2 Music: Lowlands (song) Blue Moon Marquee (artist) Scream, Holler, and Howl (album)
Orna Ross and Joanna Penn reflect on a landmark year at London Book Fair, where the Alliance of Independent Authors made its biggest mark yet — debuting the Indie Author Lab, a full-day event dedicated to helping indie authors go deep on their own publishing practice, and unveiling the new ALLi Indie Author Bookstore. They discuss why 2026 felt like a genuine turning point for self-publishers at the fair, what indie authors need most in an age of abundance and AI, and why discernment and individualization may matter more now than any single piece of publishing advice. Show Notes The Indie Author Bookstore About the Hosts Joanna Penn writes nonfiction for authors and is an award-nominated, New York Times and USA Today bestselling thriller author as J.F.Penn. She's also an award-winning podcaster, creative entrepreneur, and international professional speaker. Orna Ross launched the Alliance of Independent Authors at the London Book Fair in 2012. Her work for ALLi has seen her named as one of The Bookseller's "100 top people in publishing".

Note Derya Arms Note (Nick) Ruger mk iv Note (Nick) Derya SxS Note Gary plauche day Bullet Points Gun Fights No one stepped into the arena this week. The Agency Brief Agency Update THE HOOK (COLD OPEN) “Gary Plauché didn't ‘take the law into his own hands'—he just put justice on a faster timeline.” THE INTEL (THE STORY) The Play-by-Play The Grooming (1983): Jeff Doucet, local karate instructor, manipulates the Plauché family in Baton Rouge. Classic predator playbook: isolation and trust-building. The Kidnapping (Feb 1984): Doucet abducts 11-year-old Jody, fleeing to California. Repeatedly rapes and abuses the boy in an Anaheim motel. The Rescue: Doucet allows Jody to call his mother; FBI tracks the call. Doucet arrested, Jody saved. The Ambush (March 16, 1984): Doucet extradited to Baton Rouge Metro Airport. News crews tipped off for the “perp walk.” Gary Plauché waits by the payphones in a baseball cap and sunglasses. The Shot: As Doucet passes, live on WBRZ-TV, Gary turns. One shot from a .38 snub-nose into Doucet's head. “Why, Jeff?” The Verdict: Zero prison time. 7-year suspended sentence, 5 years probation, 300 hours community service. The judge and DA knew no jury in Louisiana would convict a father for killing his son's rapist. The Reality Check (Hidden Incentives) Fear of Jury Nullification: The state cut a plea deal because they were terrified of a “Not Guilty” verdict setting a legal precedent for vigilance. Institutional CYA: The police failed to protect the kid, then paraded the predator like a celebrity. They needed the case to go away quietly to cover their own incompetence. The “Unwritten Law”: Backroom signaling acknowledged that while the law says “murder,” the community standard says “justice.” The plea deal was the system bowing to the reality that some people just need killing. THE 2A ANGLE (LEGAL & IMPACT) The Threat: Modern Disarmament Red Flag Laws: In 2025, a father in Gary's emotional state would be “Red Flagged” and stripped of his rights before he could protect his family. “Mental Health” Trap: The state uses righteous anger as proof of “instability.” If you are angry your kid was hurt, you are now a “prohibited person.” Bruen Test: Text, History, Tradition Text: The 2A protects “the right of the people to keep and bear Arms.” It doesn't cite an exception for “angry dads.” History & Tradition: The U.S. has a long tradition of “defense of habitation” and defense of kin. While vigilante execution isn't protected, the right to carry for family defense is absolute. Analysis: Anti-gunners use Plauché as an “outlier” to justify broad restrictions. Under Bruen, you cannot restrict the rights of the law-abiding majority because one dad settled a score. Regulatory Creep: Backdoor Control Soli-Geography: Taking the “sensitive place” logic of an airport and expanding it to everywhere emotions run high (schools, parks, sidewalks). The Narrative War: Media uses this clip to argue that gun owners are “ticking time bombs,” ignoring that Gary was calm, precise, and harmed no one else. THE TALKING POINTS (ON-AIR READY) “The system calls it vigilantism. I call it parenting. Gary Plauché did what the courts were too weak to do.” “Gun control saves pedophiles. Disarming law-abiding fathers only makes the world safer for monsters like Jeff Doucet.” “In 1984, a judge understood that a father's love doesn't wait for an appeals court. Today, that same dad gets Red Flagged.” “Using Gary Plauché to argue against the Second Amendment is like banning seatbelts because someone used a car to leave a crime scene.” “Gary proved that sometimes the state is too slow, too soft, and too stupid to handle the monsters. That's why we carry.” The Alley Going Ballistic Virginia S.B. 749: Senator Cites Handgun Attacks to Justify Assault Weapons Ban Virginia Senator Saddam Salim (D) sponsored S.B. 749, an assault weapons ban targeting AR-15s and semiautomatic rifles, which passed Democrat-controlled legislature on March 9, 2026, effective July 1, 2026. Salim justified the ban by referencing handgun attacks, including the 2007 Virginia Tech shooting and 2019 Virginia Beach shooting. The bill includes a grandfather clause for pre-effective date possession but prohibits sales, transfers, and new purchases. The Gist: Virginians statewide; applies to possession, sale, and transfer of AR-15s and semiautomatic rifles. Impact: Passed by Virginia Democrat lawmakers on March 9, 2026; effective July 1, 2026; grandfather clause allows retention if possessed prior but bans sale, transfer, or new purchases. Bottom Line: Senator Saddam Salim cited handgun attacks (Virginia Tech 2007, Virginia Beach 2019) to justify banning AR-15s and semiautomatic rifles via S.B. 749.0 Washington HB 2521 & HB 5974: Background Check Fee Hike and Sheriff Silencing Bills Washington Democrats passed House Bill 2521, allowing the State Patrol to raise background check fees for firearm transactions from $18 potentially to $35 to cover costs, and House Bill 5974, empowering a state board to remove elected sheriffs refusing to enforce gun laws. Both bills advanced through the Democrat-controlled 2026 legislative session and await Gov. Bob Ferguson's expected signature. HB 2521 takes effect May 1, 2027, if signed, amid opposition citing constitutional violations. The Gist: Washington state: HB 2521 affects gun owners undergoing background checks for firearm transactions; HB 5974 targets elected county sheriffs, particularly those opposing gun control enforcement. Impact: HB 2521 grants WSP authority to hike fees as a ‘blank check,' viewed as a poll tax impairing constitutional right to bear arms (Article 1, Section 24); HB 5974 enables state board removal of non-compliant sheriffs, backed by Alliance for Gun Responsibility but opposed by sheriffs and 86% in a KOMO poll. Bottom Line: Both bills passed legislature and sent to Gov. Ferguson for signature (expected); imposes higher costs on gun transactions and risks state override of elected sheriffs on gun law enforcement. Old Dominion University Terror Attack (Virginia) Exposes Myth of Gun Tracing A terror attack at Old Dominion University in Virginia involved a stolen Glock 44 pistol used by Jalloh, a prohibited felon, highlighting the ineffectiveness of firearms tracing systems. The gun's chain of custody was broken by theft, and its partially obliterated serial number rendered tracing futile; investigators identified the seller via phone records instead. The article argues that national tracing and registration efforts are obsolete, costly, and rarely solve crimes, citing examples like Canada's handgun registry. The Gist: Old Dominion University (Norfolk, Virginia); Newport News, Virginia (gun theft); United States broadly (hundreds of millions of firearms over 10 years old or stolen are untraceable). Impact: Firearms tracing fails due to stolen guns breaking custody chains, obliterated serial numbers, and old firearms; registration systems like Canada's handgun registry (since 1934) solved no crimes by 1995; promotes electronic surveillance over ineffective gun control measures. Bottom Line: Firearms tracing and registration systems are obsolete, cost-ineffective myths that do not solve violent crimes, as proven by the Old Dominion case where phone records, not tracing, identified the gun seller.
There's growing concern over reports that the Alliance is becoming overrun by a sense of unexplained and curiously homogeneous physical and mental wellbeing among many of its citizens.
Trump's call for NATO allies to send warships and support U.S. efforts to reopen the Strait of Hormuz has been largely rejected. Germany, the UK, the EU, and other key partners are saying “This is not our war,” leaving America to shoulder the burden amid escalating conflict with Iran.
MeidasTouch host Ben Meiselas reports on world leaders forming new alliances like the Canadian-Nordic partnership which is designed to fight back against Donald Trump, with Trump notably excluded from the effort and similar efforts as he further isolates and alienates the United States from the rest of the world.

I sit down with Light Watkins to explore why so many of us stay stuck in patterns that keep us unhappy and unfulfilled. We talk about the hidden pull of the comfort zone, the resistance that shows up right before real change, and why success alone rarely delivers the fulfillment we expect.Light shares practical ideas for cultivating presence, building meaningful habits, and taking the “tortoise approach” to lasting change. If you've ever felt trapped between chasing success and wanting a more meaningful life, this conversation will give you a different way to think about growth.SHOW HIGHLIGHTS00:00 Why We Repeat Unhealthy Patterns01:28 Familiarity vs Real Change03:18 Resistance Before Transformation07:05 Choosing Stress Intentionally11:07 Why Men Stay in Broken Situations17:42 Success Without Fulfillment19:00 What Presence Really Means23:50 The Success Trap of Modern Life28:37 The Singing Cancer Doctor Story36:36 Building Presence Through Daily Practices42:57 The Tortoise Approach to Change***Tired of feeling like you're never enough?

This weekend made it clear: Democrats don't see Iran as the enemy. Democrats' biggest fear right now is a decisive win in Iran. So is Iran's. And China's. If Trump gets that win, here's what happens next, and it's devastating ... for our enemies and the Democrats. (Please subscribe & share.)

As the British tried to wrap up their war against the Zulu in South Africa, further afield the happy sound of a baby being born could be heard in Germany. Not just any baby. Albert Einstein was born at 11.30 in the morning on March 14, 1879 in Ulm. His birth was not without drama; his family initially worried about his development because the back of his head was unusually large, and his grandmother feared he would have delayed development based on the sound of his cry. His mother Pauline was deeply concerned when Albert didn't start talking until he was three. Then when he started speaking, he had a habit of repeating sentences to himself, which led the family maid to nickname him "Der Depperte" (the dopey one). When Albert was five and sick in bed, his father Hermann gave him a magnetic compass. This invisible force fascinated Albert and is often cited as the spark for his lifelong obsession with physics. A compass is what the British surveyors carried, so too did some Boers of the Wakkerstroom District. The area wasn't as stable as British Army Lieutenant Colonel Evelyn Wood had supposed. Sure, the hyena of Phongola chief Mbilini — had been killed but the abaQulusi still lurked about their mountains undefeated. While the British had gone about their war against the Zulu with some zeal in 1879, the Boers of the Transvaal were seething about their territory being summarily annexed by the Empire only two years earlier. The Boers of Wakkerstroom, east of Volksrus, lived on a frontier and a ledge. The escarpment along this north eastern line intersects with places like Luneburg, Paulpietersburg, Bilanyoni with Swazi territory further towards the rising sun. June mornings are cold — as cold as the relations between the Boers of Wakkerstroom and local Englishmen. Luneburg was a Lutheran mission station and on the 4th June, the pastor's son Heinrich Filter was killed there along with six black border policemen. Large groups of Qulisi warriors swept back into the northern Zululand region, scooping up hundreds of cattle and other livestock. So it was with fury that commander Chelmsford and Wood heard what was going on between the Boers and the Zulu along the Mkhondo River. The two nations were in league against their common imperial enemy. Zulu deputations had visited the bughers and some Boers had even travelled to go and see king Cetshwayo kaMpande. By June reports circulated the there were even more Boers than usual wintering along the border, below the icy escarpment amongst the Zulu imizi of the Phongola. The fact that they were safe confirmed all suspicions that there was Zulu-Boer collusion. Suspicions were further confirmed when the British found out that the Boers were even acting as guides leading the Zulu impis in their June raids that had been so destructive. Chelmsford had been putting together a potent column for his return to Zululand after he had relieved Eshowe, and in May he began a slow moving march to Ondini. Ranging in front of his force as it gathered close to Rorke's Drift for the second major invasion, were his reconnaissance units, scouts and observers. And one of these observers was the enthusiastic but reckless twenty three year-old Prince Imperial of France, Louis Napoleon. The last hope of the Bonapartist dynasty, serving on Chelmsford's staff. He was the only son of Emperor Napoleon the Third, great-nephew of Napoleon Bonaparte. In his first 14 years he had lived the pampered life of a monarch-in-waiting, but that changed in 1870 when his father was deposed after a string of defeats in the Franco-Prussian war. Louis fled to England with his mother Empress Eugenie. Queen Victoria gave them a warm welcome — in 1871 his father was released by the Prussians and joined Eugenie and Louis at a rented mansion in Chislehurst in Kent. A failed attempt to remove a gallstone killed the Emperor n 1873, and Louis ended up in the Royal Military Academy at Woolwich.

Flock cameras, and other license plate reader systems, are installed all over Colorado. The technology gives law enforcement access to a new level of tracking, a reach they say has helped them solve all kinds of terrible crimes and made the state safer. But community fears that law enforcement could misuse the data and invade people's privacy, and share it with federal immigration authorities, are mounting — and getting the attention of state lawmakers. CPR's Bente Birkeland and Denverite's Andrew Kenney dig into how this kind of surveillance tech has changed in recent years, the arguments for and against it and how some Colorado lawmakers hope to restrict how law enforcement can access this data. Catch up on our latest coverage: New restrictions on police surveillance advance in state Senate Denver fires Flock, prepares to switch to new roadway surveillance system Officer faces discipline after using Flock cameras to falsely accuse Denver woman of package theft Police used Flock cameras to accuse a Denver woman of package theft.

Unified Special Operations commands are critical for allied nations to maintain the advantage over our adversaries. A single command structure enables interoperability at every level, from communications and equipment to tactics and acquisition, ensuring partner forces can train together, fight together, and answer to a common mission.From the Global Special Operations Foundation Symposium in Athens, Greece, Fran Racioppi sat down with retired Command Sergeant Major Warren Soeldner, a 10th SFG legend who now lives and works in Greece supporting the Global SOF community. Warren brought home the central tenet of modern allied warfare explaining that Special Operations Forces across nations solve problems together, build trust, and operate as one.He spoke about the importance of standing up capable national SOF commands, the evolving NATO environment and the realities of today's threat landscape. From Russia's invasion of Ukraine to the long-term strategic pressure posed by China and Iran, Warren emphasized that modern conflict cannot be viewed through a single lens. War now spans diplomatic, informational, military, and economic domains, and Special Forces play a critical role in shaping outcomes long before conflict becomes visible.This discussion returns to what Green Berets have always done best: building capability in partners, understanding history and culture, maintaining discipline and professionalism, and quietly shaping global security in ways few ever see.HIGHLIGHTS0:00 Introduction1:41 Welcome to the Jedburgh Podcast2:48 Building Relationships Across SOF Allies5:38 Joint Unified Command9:15 Defining “By, With, and Through”12:38 Russia-Ukraine War Impact on NATO15:08 NATO Interoperability Gaps17:28 NATO's Biggest Threat23:14 Students of History27:50 Special Forces in LSCO32:38 US Army Generations41:38 Defining the Green BeretQuotes“The whole theme for the week has been strength and unity.”“The dollar or euro goes a lot further for them when it's a unified command.” “The threat isn't waiting on 30 nations and their parliaments.”“It's important that NATO know, fight, train together.”“When one country is using one standard and the rest of the countries are using another standard, resupply becomes a lot harder for that country.”“At the end of the day, we're all out on the same battlefield and they're seeing what we're doing, we're seeing what they're doing.”“Russia is a huge threat right now. We may be getting to hyperfocused on that and forgetting other threats like China and Iran.”“We've lost that edge with the adversary. They have a long term plan. We don't.”“It requires our Green Berets to be students of history.”“I came up in an era where we did two things: Unconventional Warfare and Foreign Internal Defense.”“First you had to learn the culture.”“When I look at Large Scale Combat Operations, do we need artillery anymore?”“In that isolation is where you finetune the skills that you need for that mission.”“There's nothing special about being a Green Beret.”“I've always been a believer that the Green Beret is a symbol and it attracts greatness.”“At the end of the day, the Army's job is to close with and kill the enemy.”Follow the Jedburgh Podcast and the Green Beret Foundation on social media.

Josh opens the show by discussing the latest twists and turns in Operation Epic Fury. Mojtaba Khamenei is badly injured and governing as something of a "ghost ayatollah"—so who is calling the shots inside Iran? Also, what is the next step and the end game of this operation? Josh also begins to unravel the ongoing information operation against the Jewish-Christian biblical alliance, which has as its poisonous tip of the spear—who else?—Tucker Carlson himself. Later, Erick Stakelbeck, host of "Stakelbeck Tonight" on TBN and "The Watchman Newscast" on YouTube, joins Josh to discuss how to define victory in Operation Epic Fury, the great gaslighting operation that intends to unravel the indispensable Jewish-Christian biblical alliance, and why Christian Zionism and the concept of "Judeo-Christianity" flow naturally from Scripture and common sense alike.

I break down the real reason you keep falling into the same self-sabotage patterns - and it's not what you think. I explain how your brain is wired to keep you stuck in familiar territory, and why doing more is never the answer. The key to getting unstuck isn't adding something new - it's having the courage to let go of the belief, behavior, or story that's been keeping you in place. I also share the one motto I've used for years that completely changed how I relate to change: I let change change me.SHOW HIGHLIGHTS00:00:00 - Welcome & Are You Stuck?00:00:32 - The Biggest Misconception About Self-Sabotage00:01:02 - Your Brain Is a Pattern Recognition Machine00:02:19 - You Have to Venture Into Unknown Territory00:04:00 - It's Not What You Need to Do - It's What to Let Go Of00:05:01 - The Quicksand Analogy00:06:23 - The Dog on the Nail Story00:07:23 - Surrender to the Truth Already in Front of You00:08:36 - I Let Change Change Me00:12:59 - Final Thoughts & Call to Action***Tired of feeling like you're never enough?

Boats are fun! New World will officially shutdown its servers January 31, 2027. We are still there! Keep an eye on the channel in nomads for a possible farewell as the end draws near. Valheim 5 Year Celebration and Regular Update. AIE Valheim Community Server Information is pinned in the AIE Discord #Nomads channel WoW Noob Raid had a great final run of Manaforge Omega on pre-Midnight launch – clearing both Normal and Heroic! Dankinia will be taking a break until the first raid in Midnight is released, around early April. Midnight launched on 3/2, with early access for folks who prepurchased expected to begin 2/27. Lots more about Midnight from our lovely guests later in the show. Player housing. This new feature is time consuming but a great deal of fun. The creativity of our Guildies is amazing to behold! WoW Classic As Jehdai pointed out, we have our first 70 (Sethos) and light activity on the 20th Anniversary TBC launch on Dreamscythed Horde side. We have the guild available with the guild bank open and invite others to join us in Outland. In other Classic news: Reminder that there are now 3 launchers for Classic (‘Original’, ‘Anniversary’, ‘Era’) “Original” Classic is progressing with Mists of Pandaria. The guild is available on Horde side on Galakras. If I have this right, MoP classic uses the modern guild interface so we have the new interface showing 651 members. “Anniversary” Classic which is now at TBC as mentioned above. “Era” classic is a separate launcher with 3 game modes: ‘Classic Era’ which is forever frozen in the original game (pre-TBC). We were on Mankrik here but really no activity or guild. “Season of Discovery” which is where experiments were performed by the devs which some expect may lead to the anticipated “Classic Plus” many hope for. We have no real activity there currently. “Hardcore” is the 3rd game mode in the Era client and probably our 2nd most active within the classic modes. We have an Alliance side guild on Doomhowl and some activity on the Horde side of Doomhowl but no guild currently. Lars plans to return to his attempt at a “Solo Self-Found” run to 60 in Hardcore but that has been on pause for quite some time. We did have guild members make it to 60 on the hardcore server previously. Ravisant is ProffessorWC or Sethos one of the raid leaders from HoG SWTOR In Swtor this week, we are ready for Update 7.8.1, Master’s Enigma. It will bring a story piece, Galactic Seasons 10, new date nights, and the Spring Abundance Festival. The story finale is coming in the June timeframe to make room for 8.0 at the end of the year.

For a lot of farmers in Colorado, and across the country, insecticides known as neonicotinoids, or neonics, have been a game changer. But what's been a breakthrough for some has been a nightmare for others. Neonics are being blamed for die-offs in domestic bees and native pollinators, and there's growing concern over their potential impacts on human health as well. This year, some Democratic lawmakers proposed a bold step to reduce the chemicals' use in Colorado; they wanted farmers to get something like a prescription to be allowed to use neonic-treated seeds.CPR's Bente Birkeland and Rae Solomon discuss what those lawmakers tried to do, and why they faced such fierce opposition from the get go.Read our coverage: Farmers bristle as state lawmakers weigh the future of a ubiquitous pesticide Democrats' bill to control pesticides that threaten pollinators dies at statehouse Purplish is produced by CPR News and the Capitol News Alliance, a collaboration between KUNC News, Colorado Public Radio, Rocky Mountain PBS, and The Colorado Sun, and shared with Rocky Mountain Community Radio and other news organizations across the state. Funding for the Alliance is provided in part by the Corporation for Public Broadcasting.Purplish's producer is Stephanie Wolf. Sound design and engineering by Shane Rumsey.

Israel and Iran have been in almost constant conflict for nearly 50 years. Media tends to frame the violence as endemic, and inevitable — but it's not. Between the creation of Israel in 1948 and Iran's Islamic Revolution in 1979, the countries cooperated, if cautiously. And the bridge between them was one of the largest and oldest Jewish populations in the Middle East: a thriving community of Iranian Jews. Today on the show, the story of Iran and Israel, told through the life of Jewish Iranian Habib Elghanain.Guests:Roya Hakakian, author of Journey from the Land of No: A Girlhood Caught in Revolutionary IranShahrzad Elghanayan, author of Titan of Tehran: From Jewish Ghetto to Corporate Colossus to Firing Squad - My Grandfather's LifeMeir Javedanfar, Israeli-Iranian political scientist and teacher at Reichman UniversityTo access bonus episodes and listen to Throughline sponsor-free, subscribe to Throughline+ via Apple Podcasts or at plus.npr.org/throughline.To manage podcast ad preferences, review the links below:See pcm.adswizz.com for information about our collection and use of personal data for sponsorship and to manage your podcast sponsorship preferences.Learn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy

I talk about why many modern men feel weaker, more fragile, and less effective than generations before them. I break down the forgotten skill of mobilization and explain why the ability to take action, organize, and move people toward a goal is critical for leadership and masculinity.
