Amb. (ret) Karl Hofmann is CEO of the recently launched Health X Partners (HXP), a parent company under which Population Services International (PSI) and the Elizabeth Glazer Pediatric AID Foundation (EGPAF) now operate. He explains his personal story—from a successful diplomatic path centered in Africa to a pivot and second career as President and CEO of PSI starting in 2007. And he explains the logic by which PSI and EGPAF agreed in 2024 to form HXP to achieve greater efficiencies and prepare prudently for the end of the 25-year era, begun around 2000, that has generated an “amazing chapter of human progress” in health but which, it had become increasingly obvious, would not last indefinitely. As the unforeseen tsunami of Trump 2.0 hit in early 2025, it was both fortuitous and doubly-risky for HXP, as it stood itself up. The new leadership at FSI and EGPAF suddenly had to come to terms with 50% reductions in staff, budgets, and programs, while consolidating and integrating audit, HR, and IT teams. Change had been expected, but it “turned out there was a lot more change” than anticipated. How to view 2026? Profound uncertainty. Yet there is also one clear message to NGO implementers: focus even more on cost effectiveness; and get much closer to needs on the ground, networked and connected to leverage scale and innovation.
Tonight on The Last Word: MS NOW reports the Department of Homeland Security fired at people in cars at least 14 times since July.

Most people don't struggle with God — they struggle with His government. In this eye-opening episode, Amb. Elisha dismantles one of the biggest misunderstandings in modern faith: approaching God through religion and democracy instead of kingdom authority. This teaching reveals why many believers wrestle with Scripture, resist obedience, and misinterpret Jesus' words like “take no thought for your life.” The issue isn't confusion — it's perspective. God is not a religious figure. God is not a negotiator. God is a King

Tema del dia Avui, dia 8 de gener, comença la Marató de Donants de Sang a Catalunya, que durarà fins al dia 17. En aquest episodi, parlem amb el Marc Farran, ambaixador 2.0 del Banc de Sang i membre de la Federació Catalana de Donants de Sang. Amb ell resoldrem alguns dubtes habituals sobre la qüestió de donar sang: Cada quant es pot fer? Quines són les limitacions? Fa mal? Dura gaire? Consulta els punts de donació (https://www.bancsang.net/ca/) Si vas a donar sang, comparteix-ho a xarxes amb l'etiqueta @donarsang (i @easycatalanvideos) Com participar al Repte Gramatical de 14 Dies 1) Fes-te membre de la comunitat des de http://easycatalan.org/membership 2) Crea't un compte d'usuari a Discord (http://discord.com/) (gratuït) 3) Vincula un compte amb l'altre (2 clics) 4) Xerra i participa! L'expressió de la setmana cada gota omple la bota de gota en gota s'omple la bota Bonus Compartim algunes anècdotes personals com a donants de sang. Transcripció Andreu: [0:15] Bon dia, bona tarda, o bona nit, i benvinguts o bentornats al pòdcast d'Easy Catalan. Ja sé que molts de vosaltres trobeu a faltar la Sílvia aquí al pòdcast. Jo també. Com ja sabeu, va ser mare fa poc i per això últimament l'hem sentit menys. Però no patiu, perquè aviat tornarem a la normalitat, o a una certa normalitat, i la tindrem aquí més sovint. Avui tampoc m'acompanya el Joan. L'hem deixat descansant i practicant això de parlar a poc a poc. A veure si per al pròxim episodi ho hem aconseguit. I com que el mes passat no vam portar cap convidat, doncs ho fem avui! La persona que sentireu a continuació és un amic meu de tota la vida, de Lleida, però avui ve aquí al pòdcast per parlar-nos d'un tema molt important per al sistema sanitari i el conjunt de la societat. És una cosa que potser moltes persones no han fet mai encara, o ni tan sols ho han considerat, però de la qual molts de nosaltres ens en podem beneficiar en algun moment o altre de la nostra vida. Parlarem de donar sang. Sí, donar sang, aquest líquid vermell que ens corre per les venes. Però abans d'això, deixeu-me recordar que d'aquí una setmana i mitja començarem el Repte Gramatical de 14 Dies. Ens centrarem a practicar algunes expressions o estructures útils amb els pronoms febles "en" i "hi". De pronoms febles, ja ho sabeu, n'hi ha més, però volem centrar-nos en aquests dos perquè sovint són els que generen més dubtes o més confusió. Per tant, cada dia, durant 14 dies, al matí us proposarem una petita activitat per fer a Discord. Potser serà escriure un parell de frases, o gravar un àudio fent servir una expressió, o enviar una foto amb un comentari, però tot tindrà relació amb aquests dos pronoms febles. I al final del dia farem una breu conclusió per resumir el que hem après. Aquest repte està pensat per repassar conceptes bàsics sobre l'ús d'aquests pronoms, aprendre a utilitzar-los amb més seguretat i confiança i, així, fer que els pronoms febles deixin de ser el nostre punt feble. Andreu: [2:20] Aleshores, per participar-hi, simplement us heu de fer membres de la comunitat i accedir a Discord. Amb la subscripció més bàsica ja hi teniu accés. És molt fàcil. Primer cal entrar a easycatalan.org/membership i triar un nivell de subscripció. Després, anar a discord.com i crear un compte d'usuari. Això és un pas gratuït. I, finalment, vincular el compte de Discord amb la subscripció d'Easy Catalan, que són, simplement, dos clics. Tot ho teniu explicat a la descripció de l'episodi i també a la web que he dit. Llavors, si penseu que aquest Repte Gramatical us pot ajudar a millorar el vostre català, us proposo de fer pausa un moment, ara mateix, aturar el reproductor i fer aquests tres passos en menys de cinc minuts. D'aquesta manera també descobrireu com és la comunitat de la qual sempre parlem i alhora ens ajudareu a continuar aquest projecte, cosa que ens farà molt contents. Tema del dia Andreu: [3:21] I ara sí, us presento la persona que us he dit abans. Ell és el Marc, Farran per als amics o @FarryPimPam a les xarxes. I és, si no ho dic malament, ambaixador del Banc de Sang de Catalunya. Hola, Farran! Farran: [3:36] Hola, hola, bon dia! Andreu: [3:37] Benvingut! Com estàs? Farran: [3:39] Doncs molt bé. Molt bé, molt bé. Molt content d'estar aquí. Moltes gràcies! Andreu: [3:43] Clar, una cosa que no he dit és que tu, a part d'això d'ambaixador del Banc de Sang, que ara ens explicaràs, ets oient del pòdcast d'Easy Catalan! Però tu no ets aprenent de català. Llavors, és un honor també tenir alguna persona que no és el perfil prototípic dels oients d'Easy Catalan, no? Ets una d'aquestes… dels pocs nadius, potser, que ens escolten. Farran: [4:07] Però sempre es diu això, no?, que mai se neix amb tot après i mai deixem d'aprendre. Cada dia que escolto el pòdcast, i amb els vostres vídeos, doncs sempre… sempre aprenc coses noves i sempre enriqueix. Fes-te membre de la subscripció de pòdcast per accedir a les transcripcions completes, a la reproducció interactiva amb Transcript Player i a l'ajuda de vocabulari.
