We talk about why performance anxiety kills connection, how curiosity builds real sexual confidence, and what actually drives desire in long-term relationships.

Trump and MAGA see European values and societies as the real enemiesNick Cohen talks to the leading US commentator Charlie Sykes about the impact of the highly controversial US National Security Strategy 2025 which has overturned 80 years of post-war security strategy and threatens the very social and political fabric of Europe, as well as its security.Incredibly, in this document, the US says it will support nationalist far right parties in overturning European governments and says it will do all it can to destroy the European Union. The document - described as "obscene" by one former US ambassador to the EU - also strikes a dagger to the heart of NATO, clearly marking out its former security partners in the Alliance as the real enemies while failing to criticise the brazen illegality and aggression of Putin's Russia.The US has "switched sides" to stand shoulder to shoulder with our enemiesCharlie's stark conclusion: "This is what they're saying to the entire world. And again, the loathing for the democracies of Western Europe, the loathing for the allies who have been with us since World War II really can't be overstated. It is deep and, quite frankly, there has to come a moment when I think the rest of the world has to say that the United States has switched sides."Discussion summaryCharlie and Nick discuss the implications of the new strategy for American foreign policy, particularly regarding relations with Russia and Europe. The discussion explores how the strategy aligns with Moscow's vision and promotes radical right-wing parties, while contrasting conservative reactions between the US and UK. The conversation concluded with an examination of Trump's presidency and its potential dangers, including immigration policies, weaponisation of justice departments, and the broader implications for American democracy and political norms.Read all about it!Charlie Sykes @SykesCharlie is a leading highly respected United States conservative political commentator who was formerly editor-in-chief and founder of the highly influential website The Bulwark. Charlie has been a leading Never Trump Conservative since Trump stood for the presidency in 2015.

In this week's episode we're taking a close look at the New Hospital Programme, a programme which has been described as perhaps the most ambitious National Health Service infrastructure investment in decades.The NHP programme is tasked with delivering a new generation of state-of-the-art hospitals across England. At its core is Hospital 2.0, a standardised, repeatable and industrialised approach to hospital design and delivery that promises greater certainty, faster construction, improved quality, predictable costs, and cutting-edge clinical environments. To explain the programme and how it will be delivered, I am joined by Doug Baldock, Technical Services Director, and Emily King, Director of Industrialisation at the NHP, two leaders central to shaping the technical, commercial and industrial strategy underpinning Hospital 2.0. And with a long-term pipeline backed by rolling five-year funding envelopes averaging around £3 billion a year from 2030, the programme aligns with the Government's wider Industrial Strategy and aims not only to modernise the NHS estate but to boost innovation, strengthen supply chains and support economic growth across the UK.The scale of this challenge is immense: dozens of complex hospital schemes, varied site conditions, urgent RAAC rebuilds – and, of course, the need to rebuild public and industry confidence after years of delay and uncertainty. Yet with clearer planning assumptions, a 12-year £37bn Hospital 2.0 Alliance procurement, and deep engagement with suppliers, the programme now seeks to unlock the capability and investment needed for a sustainable long-term programme.Well let's find out what it means in reality..Resources New Hospital Programme: Plan for ImplementationGovernment hospital investment press release Supplier Guide.Egan review 1998Latham review 1994

Until the South African Communist Party and African National Congress have reached an agreement on the Communist party's decision to contest the 2026 local government elections alone, SACP members must recuse themselves from ANC elections structures. This was just one of the resolutions of the ANC's 5th National General Council that concluded on Thursday. The SACP's decision concerns the ANC as many of its members have dual membership to both parties with implications on which party to vote and campaign for. To take a deeper look at the state of the tripartite alliance following the ANC's 5th National General Council, Bongiwe Zwane spoke to SACP Spokesperson Mbulelo Mandlana and Political Analyst from the University of the Free State, Prof. Sethulego Matebesi...

It's been a tough week for Europe after President Trump described the continent as "weak" and "decaying". Can US-Europe relations recover? Christiane gets the view from both sides of the pond, with former US Defense Department official Celeste Wallander and Oxford historian Peter Frankopan. A year since the fall of the Assad regime in Syria, the country's new President Ahmed al-Sharaa talks to Christiane about Syria's future following a decade of civil war. Plus, who are the “Pink Ladies”? A special report on Britain's new protest movement which is echoing far right rhetoric. Then, into the past with author Jonathan Freedland, who reveals the hidden history of the millions of Germans who resisted Nazi rule. From the archives, how one man from Harlem trekked to the North Pole to inspire New York's schoolchildren. And finally, Nobel Peace Laureate Maria Corina Machado makes a daring journey to Oslo, telling the world what the award means to her.    Air date: December 13, 2025   Guests:  Celeste Wallander & Peter Frankopan  Ahmed al-Sharaa  Jonathan Freedland    Learn more about your ad choices.

Ghost returns with a focused geopolitical briefing on Africa's accelerating realignment, centering on the rise of the Sahel Alliance and the rapid erosion of Western influence across the continent. He breaks down recent developments involving Mali, Niger, Burkina Faso, and neighboring states, explaining how military cooperation, resource control, and shared security interests are reshaping regional power structures. Ghost walks through France's continued retreat, the collapse of EU leverage, and the strategic vacuum left behind as African nations reject IMF-style dependency in favor of sovereignty-driven alliances. The episode also covers shifting dynamics around rare earth minerals, energy corridors, and security agreements, tying Africa's internal changes to the broader multipolar world taking shape alongside Russia, China, and the Global South. With maps, historical context, and clear-eyed analysis, Ghost explains why Africa has become a central front in the global struggle for power, and why the West is rapidly losing its grip.

On this episode @Travis_156 & @Um_Actually_ discuss the new Supergirl trailer that dropped on Thursday. They also cover the new Lanters footage, and the WBD sale to Netflix with Paramount's hostile move.

Hour 1 of Rush To Reason opens with estate-planning attorney Michael Bailey (https://michaelbaileylawllc.com), who reminds listeners that the end of the year is the perfect time to protect what matters most. What really happens if you leave your estate to Colorado's default rules? And how simple is it to update an old will—especially when life, kids, and families change? Michael breaks down the misconceptions and reveals why planning spares your loved ones from confusion and conflict. Next, lifestyle and food creator Shanisty Ireland (https://shesbecomingdomestic.com)brings much-needed calm to the chaos of the holiday season. Can one signature dish, a five-minute “fake clean,” and lowering the lights truly transform a stressful gathering into a cozy, joy-filled moment? And what happens when you finally stop apologizing for imperfections no one else even notices? Finally, health educator Troy Duell of https://centurion.health exposes the hidden health traps of the season—sugar overload, poor sleep, party fatigue, and holiday stress. Which simple supplements can strengthen your immunity? And why is prevention far more powerful than any “miracle” cure once illness hits? Hour 1 delivers practical wisdom, emotional relief, and real-world tools—perfect for anyone wanting a healthier, happier holiday. HOUR 2 Hour 2 of Rush to Reason opens with author Richard Battle (https://RichardBattle.com), who dives into the extraordinary “American-do spirit” that sparked the Boston Tea Party and built a nation unlike any other. But do Americans still have that fire today—or are we quietly surrendering our freedoms to a globalist mindset that rejects individual liberty? The hour then shifts to political analyst Sunny Kutcher of Young Americans Against Socialism ( https://yass.org), who confronts one of the most explosive issues of 2025: mass migration and its cultural, economic, and security fallout. Why are taxpayer dollars flowing out of the country in suitcases of cash? Are failing assimilation, cultural clashes, and entitlement politics accelerating America's unraveling? And what happens when a rising political figure like Rep. Jasmine Crockett challenges critics—only to have a flood of violent Democrat soundbites resurface? Sunny exposes the strategy behind it all: chaos, disruption, and media manipulation designed to shape elections far beyond one candidate. Her message is clear—if Americans want their country back, they must understand what they're up against. HOUR 3 Hour 3 launches with a high-stakes conversation as Brendan Steinhauser, CEO of the Alliance for Secure AI (https://secureainow.org), joins John to tackle one of the most urgent questions of our time: Who should control the future of artificial intelligence—states or the federal government? With China racing ahead and U.S. politicians struggling to understand even basic tech, is America prepared for the new AI frontier? And what happens if the people writing policy can't even reset their phones? The hour then pivots to a viral economic warning as John exposes the brutal reality behind America's skilled-labor crisis. Why are $120,000-a-year technician jobs unfilled while millions of college graduates stack debt, not skills? Is the decades-long “everyone must go to college” mindset fueling inflation, worker shortages, and a collapsing middle class? In the final segment, John widens the lens: What happens when one in three young adults can't afford to live on their own? Are high prices really to blame—or a culture that never taught resilience, marketable skills, or the value of hard work? Hour 3 is a wake-up call for anyone who wants America to thrive in the age of AI, economics, and personal responsibility.

What does effective therapy actually look like—and how would you measure it without turning the process into something cold or mechanical? In this episode, Mike sits down with Arron Lin—a UBC psychology graduate with a master's in innovation & entrepreneurship from Queen's, and a deep interest in the future of mental health. Arron is also currently studying counselling psychology, bringing a rare "both-sides" lens: the world of startups and systems on one hand, and the human realities of healing on the other.  Arron shares his story of moving to Canada as a teenager, navigating culture shock, identity, and the emotional pressure that many people carry silently while trying to succeed. From there, we dig into measurement-based care / feedback-informed treatment—how clinicians can track progress, strengthen the therapeutic alliance, and why honest feedback is often the missing ingredient in good therapy (even when everyone says they want it).      We also flip the script. Arron interviews Mike on the difference between self-awareness vs. overthinking, how rumination disguises itself as insight, and how real change comes from pairing insight with action. Finally, we zoom out to the future: where tech and AI can expand access and improve care—without ever replacing the human relationship at the heart of healing.   Please Subscribe to my YouTube - YouTube Subscription Link Chapters: 00:00 Self-awareness vs overthinking (the big misconception)  00:44 Episode intro + what we're covering today  02:30 Why measurement-based care + tech matters in therapy  03:08 Arron's background + immigration journey  05:56 "Tiger mom" culture + education expectations  10:13 Moving at 17, ESL, first job, discrimination  16:46 What schools miss: emotional health + financial literacy  18:41 Why humans struggle to talk about emotions  22:30 Parenting, boundaries, truth, and responsibility  27:49 Arron's personal mental health tools + therapy journey  29:52 Emotional health = self-awareness (and mindfulness)  32:11 How to tell self-awareness from rumination loops  38:12 Family duty, collectivism vs individualism, immigrant tension  49:58 Measurement-based care / FIT explained (what it is)  52:18 Alliance feedback, therapist defensiveness, radical honesty  1:03:27 AI + tech: enhance humans, don't replace them Disclaimer Professional medical care and psychotherapeutic services are not offered on this Youtube channel.

Colorado, like the rest of the country, is experiencing more, and worse, climate disasters, wrecking havoc on people's homes — and their homeowner's insurance rates. In the wake of devastating hail storms and massive wildfires, Coloradans face rising premiums, less choice and availability, and in some cases, getting dropped by insurers altogether. The state is now one of the top ten most expensive in the country for homeowners insurance. And escalating the issue is climate change. CPR's Bente Birkeland and Rocky Mountain PBS' Andrea Kramar look at what's happening with the home insurance market in Colorado, and what state lawmakers are trying to do to make sure that, when the flames approach or the hail falls, Coloradans don't lose everything.Plus stay tuned for a full-length documentary on this reporting. “Undercovered” airs on Rocky Mountain PBS Thursday, Jan. 15 at 7 p.m. MST, and will be available to stream on the free RMPBS+ app and Youtube.Purplish is produced by listener-supported 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.

In this episode, we welcome Congressman Glenn Grothman from Wisconsin to discuss the latest developments in defense authorization and healthcare reforms. Congressman Grossman shares insights on the Pentagon's strategies to adapt to modern warfare, the significant reductions in non-uniform personnel within the Department of Defense, and the potential savings for taxpayers. We also explore the implications of upcoming healthcare reforms, including reduced prescription drug prices and enhanced taxpayer rights regarding the IRS. Later, John Lott, president of the Crime Prevention Research Center and author of 'Gun Control Myths,' shares compelling statistics that reveal a drop in murders and mass shootings, challenging the narratives frequently presented in the media. We discuss the implications of gun control laws on minority communities and the importance of allowing individuals to protect themselves. Finally, we tackle the pressing issue of welfare fraud with Chuck Flint, CEO of the Alliance for IRS Accountability and a former prosecutor. We discuss the alarming schemes involving fraudulent claims, particularly within the Somali immigrant community, and the apparent lack of accountability from government officials.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

I've been seeing a disturbing trend online where women claim that "incredible men are just average women," implying that men are simply playing catch-up to a female baseline. In this episode, I dive into the dangers of this "female supremacy" narrative and what I call the "Patriarchy Virus," which frames men as the root cause of every societal problem. I also break down why judging men by female metrics destroys relationships and discuss the immense, often overlooked effort it takes to chisel yourself into an exceptional man.SHOW HIGHLIGHTS00:00 The "Incredible Men Are Just Average Women" Narrative01:43 Introducing the Patriarchy Virus03:09 The "One Up, One Down" Relationship Dynamic05:10 Society Values What Men Contribute, Not Who They Are06:23 Identity: Community vs. Competency08:52 Why Modern Culture Demonizes Hierarchies10:04 Applying Female Metrics to Male Psychology11:50 Misandry and the Contempt for Men14:14 The Reality of Women Who Buy Into This Narrative16:03 It Is Hard to Craft Yourself Into a Great Man***Tired of feeling like you're never enough?

She holds a PhD in cognitive psychology and is co-founder of the Alliance for Decision Education. Annie's latest best-selling book is "Quit: The Power of Knowing When to Walk Away." In this episode, Annie reveals why knowing when to walk away is the most underrated leadership skill. Drawing on cognitive psychology and real-world coaching with executives and venture capitalists, she breaks down why we're wired to stick with bad decisions, and more importantly, how to override that wiring. Annie explains how sunk costs, identity attachment, and status quo bias conspire to keep us committed past the point of reason.

Watch this Episode on YouTube | Annie Duke on Quitting – Knowing When to Walk Away https://bit.ly/TLP-489 Key Takeaways [02:01] Annie reveals she's an avid tennis player and has a Bernadoodle dog not mentioned in her public bio. [02:54] Annie explains quitting is central to success because decisions are made under uncertainty and even perfect choices have bad outcomes 20% of the time. [06:25] Annie discusses how over-optimism harms decision-making by overestimating both likelihood and quality of good outcomes. [09:41] Annie describes Don Moore's research showing optimistic people just spend more time on unsolvable problems without performing better. [11:44] Annie clarifies that quitting feels too early in the moment but people looking back realize they quit too late. [14:27] Annie explains not quitting creates two problems: pursuing unhelpful goals plus losing opportunity cost of redirected resources. [15:03] Annie recommends using psychological distance through quitting coaches and kill criteria involving mental time travel. [16:19] Annie describes an exercise where executives set six-week benchmarks for underperforming employees, accelerating decisions. [19:38] Annie advises adding "unless" statements to goals since cost-benefit analyses change over time. [24:45] Annie addresses information paralysis by emphasizing the time-versus-accuracy trade-off in decisions. [30:49] Annie acknowledges self-knowledge matters but notes people have competing preferences between short-term wants and long-term values. [33:28] Annie explains how implicit decision-making allows bias to highlight factors supporting desired conclusions. [36:49] Annie explains explicit frameworks resolve short-term versus long-term conflicts by creating future accountability. [37:57] Annie tells negotiation clients every deal can be broken, paralleling keeping quitting as an option. [38:30] Annie addresses opportunity cost neglect where people focus on immediate goals without considering sacrifices. [44:32] Annie connects quitting to innovation since minimal starting information requires flexibility to pivot. [46:22] And remember…"If at first you don't succeed, try again, then quit, there's no point in being a damn fool about it." - W.C. fields. Quotable Quotes "When you make decisions to start things, you are making those decisions under conditions of uncertainty." "When you're thinking about quitting, it will generally feel like it's too early. But when you're looking at someone from the outside, if you're coaching, it'll feel like they're too late." "We quit way too late, as judged by our happiness." "When we don't quit something that we ought to quit, we have a double problem. One problem is that we're doing something that isn't helping us achieve our goals. And the other problem is an opportunity cost problem." "You don't want the goal itself to become an object because it is a representation of a cost benefit analysis." "In order to be a really good innovator, you have to build in this whole idea of quit." "Every deal can be broken, and even if you break it's not broken."

Scott Lucas, Professor of US and International Studies at the UCD Clinton Institute, discusses Trump's latest criticism of Europe.

Welcome to In Reality the podcast about truth disinformation and the media with Eric Schurenberg, long time journalist and media executive, now the founder of the Alliance for Trust in Media. Up to this point, Eric's assumption about artificial intelligence—and he's not alone in this—has been that it will only make the information environment worse. More chaotic, more polluted by mass produced slop that only reinforces our partisan belief bubbles.  Add to that the scary possibility is that AI would become a superhuman  tool of political manipulation, able to strike up one-on-one conversations with voters about whom the AI knows everything and win them over with subtle manipulation.  It so happens that three scientific papers have come out just last week that challenge this alarming scenario. All concluded that AI models in conversation are indeed much more persuasive than conventional methods used to sway voters—like, say, political ads. But they are most effective not because they are especially manipulative, but because they are better at marshalling facts to support their case.Today's guest is Kobi Hackenburg, an Oxford University PhD candidate who authored one of the papers and who has long studied the question of AI's power to change minds. Among other things, Kobi and Eric will dig deeper into why factuality works so well in these experiments and other, more insidious techniques, like microtargeting, don't. We'll speculate about how AI might be used by political campaigns in the future,   And whether we should be cheered ar that, at least in this experiment, people seemed surprisingly open to changing their minds when confronted with contrary facts.Website - free episode transcriptswww.in-reality.fmAlliance for Trust in Mediaalliancefortrust.com Produced by Tom Platts at Sound Sapiensoundsapien.com

The Kremlin has issued a strong welcome to the new 33-page US National Security Strategy (NSS), calling the policy changes "largely consistent with our vision." This video breaks down the explosive document and the immediate fallout: Moscow's Approval: Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov confirmed Russia views the NSS as a "positive step," specifically noting its softer language toward Russia and its decision not to cast Moscow as a threat to the US. The strategy unleashes controversial claims about US allies, suggesting Europe is facing "civilisational erasure" and criticizing the EU over issues like "censorship," mass migration, and foreign influence.

On today's episode of Behind the Stays, you're going to meet a guy who has made a habit of burning the ships… twice. Josh went from helping people write on their walls with his first company, Writeyboard – the e-commerce brand that turned boring offices into floor-to-ceiling whiteboards – to designing the kinds of spaces people dream about escaping to.In his early 30s, sitting on a house in LA and feeling a quarter-life crisis creeping in, he looked at his girlfriend and said, “This year, we're moving to Bali.” He sold the house, unwound a decade-long business, and flew halfway across the world to start over in real estate in a place where the rules, language, and rhythm of life were completely different. That leap set off a chain of projects and partnerships that eventually led to Tiba – a Bali-inspired hospitality brand – and now to his boldest undertaking yet: a highly designed, nature-immersed resort in the hills of Tennessee that blends luxury, landscape, and a whole lot of soul.In this conversation, we get into how Josh thinks about risk, why he keeps selling everything to chase the next build, and what it actually looks like to try and create the next generation of stays from scratch. Website: https://tibaliving.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/tiba_tennessee/ Behind the Stays is brought to you by Journey — a first-of-its-kind loyalty program that brings together an alliance of the world's top independently owned and operated stays and allows travelers to earn points and perks on boutique hotels, vacation rentals, treehouses, ski chalets, glamping experiences and so much more.

Halifax at the Berghof and Soviet Paranoia: Colleague Charles Spicer explains that by late 1937, the Anglo-German Fellowship was infiltrated by spies including Soviet mole Kim Philby, fueling Stalin's fear of an Anglo-German alliance; the narrative focuses on Lord Halifax's visit to the Berghof, where he famously mistook Hitler for a footman, and despite witnessing Hitler's brutal rants about India, Halifax returned to London believing Hitler did not desire war, a misjudgment Spicer attributes to Hitler's ability to fool the "religious" Halifax, underscoring the dangerous disconnect between British diplomatic expectations and Hitler's aggressive reality. 1933
