The Americas Aviation Lead for PA Consulting discusses key priorities for the U.S. aviation industry, including investing in airport infrastructure and addressing the industry’s labor shortage. In the news, a bill to pay controllers during a shutdown, why ATC modernization has failed, the FAA’s unleaded avgas transition plan, similarities between the UPS crash and a previous problem with bearings, and the FAA’s decision to deregister hundreds of aircraft. Also, a new studio album from an airline pilot, visiting the USS Midway Museum in Southern California, and listener feedback on attractive airplanes. Guest Carlos Ozores is the Americas Aviation Lead for PA Consulting, a global firm that focuses on technology and innovation. Carlos addresses the key priorities for the U.S. aviation industry in 2026, including investing in airport infrastructure and addressing the industry labor shortage. He explains that U.S. airports have an estimated $170B capital requirement over the next five years to address airport infrastructure needs. Carlos tells us about the traditional sources to fund such projects, and what other sources could make up the shortfall. We look at public-private partnerships, the Passenger Facility Charge, and monetization of airport assets such as terminal concessions, car parking, and real estate development. Also, utilizing data collected about passengers and the importance of airport stakeholder engagement. Carlos tells us how the aging workforce is contributing to an industry labor shortage and leading to the loss of institutional knowledge. We talk about promoting the industry to the young generations, and issues such as pay, training, documented and repeatable work, quality of life, and labor relations. Before joining PA Consulting, Carlos served as Vice President and Managing Director, Head of Aviation, Americas, for ICF, a global solutions and technology provider. Before that, he spent time at American Airlines and Air France. He just returned from the American Association of Airport Executives Aviation Issues Conference in Hawaii, and we hear his observations from that event. PA aviation clients include SkyTeam and its member airlines on sustainability issues, Heathrow Airport on on-time performance and passenger experience projects, Etihad Airways on decision-support for engine fleet management, and DFW on airport operations. Other clients have included Amsterdam Schiphol Airport, Aer Lingus, and multiple SkyTeam member airlines through SkyTeam's sustainability program. See: Airport Improvement Program Passenger Facility Charge (PFC) program Airports Council International American Association of Airport Executives Jacobs to Acquire Remaining Stake in PA Consulting Aviation News Update: Air Traffic Controller Pay During Shutdowns Meets Resistance The House Transportation Committee advanced a bipartisan bill (H.R.6086 – Aviation Funding Solvency Act) which “provides continuing appropriations to the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) if (1) an appropriations bill for the FAA has not been enacted before a fiscal year begins, or (2) a law making continuing appropriations for the FAA is not in effect.”  The “bill provides appropriations from the Aviation Insurance Revolving Fund at the rate of operations that was provided for the prior fiscal year to continue programs, projects, and activities that were funded in the preceding fiscal year. The FAA may use the balance of the fund, minus $1 billion. If the FAA determines that the amounts from the fund are insufficient to continue all programs, projects, or activities, then the FAA must prioritize compensation payments for employees of the Air Traffic Organization (e.g., air traffic controllers).” However, Steve Womack (R-Ark.), chair of the House Appropriations Committee's transportation panel, is critical of the legislation. The Aviation Insurance Revolving Fund exists to cover war‑risk insurance claims for airlines participating in government programs such as the Civil Reserve Air Fleet (CRAF), when commercial insurance is unavailable or withdrawn. The balance was originally built up from premiums paid by airlines, but that premium program authority expired in 2014. Because the fund has been largely unused for claims, investment earnings have grown it to roughly more than 2.6 billion dollars, significantly above what has historically been needed for CRAF-related claims. The Abundance Problem: Why the FAA Has Spent 40 Years Modernizing Air Traffic Control—and Still Isn't Done Vincent E. Bianco III, an FAA Veteran and Senior Aviation Safety Consultant, describes why presidential administrations and Congresses have failed to adequately fund the FAA and modernize the ATC system. He draws on a concept from the March 2025 book Abundance: What America Gets Wrong About Capitalism and What We Can Do to Fix It, by Ezra Klein and Derek Thompson. Those authors describe how an institution, like the FAA, can become paralyzed by process, where well-intentioned rules accumulate. Each rule is logical by itself, but taken together, they end up stifling progress. FAA Publishes Unleaded Avgas Transition Plan Daft Section 827 of the 2024 FAA Reauthorization Act directs the FAA to facilitate a safe, timely, and orderly transition to unleaded alternatives while maintaining operational efficiency. The FAA released a Draft Transition Plan to Unleaded Aviation Gasoline – For Public Comment (January 2026, Version 1.0, 77 pages), which phases out 100LL fuel by 2030 in the contiguous United States, and by 2032 in Alaska. The FAA is seeking feedback from aviation professionals, specifically aircraft owners, pilots, and aviation stakeholders. Boeing warned 15 years ago about a part problem at the center of UPS crash The Air Current reports that in an investigation update, the NTSB noted “that cracking discovered in a spherical bearing assembly from the accident aircraft ‘appears consistent' with an issue identified by Boeing almost 15 years ago.” The bearing assembly is part of the pylon aft mount bulkhead. That mount, and the forward mount bulkhead and thrust link assembly, attach the engine pylon to the wing. “The NTSB's preliminary report on the accident, released Nov. 20, revealed that on the left pylon aft mount bulkhead, the forward and aft lugs that house the spherical bearing assembly had fractured and separated. The spherical bearing's outer race, which contains the ball bearing and allows it to move independently of the surrounding parts, had also fractured around its circumference.” The 2011 Boeing service letter informed operators of bearing race failures on three different airplanes. A visual inspection of the part was added to the regular 60-month maintenance cycle. Also, Boeing recommended (but did not require) installing a new part design. Boeing determined that failure of the bearing race would “not result in a safety of flight condition.” The NTSB is not saying this is the conclusive cause of the accident. Hundreds of Aircraft Deregistered in FAA Move Against Trust Company About 800 aircraft registered through U.K.-based Southern Aircraft Consultancy have been grounded after the FAA informed the company it did not meet U.S. citizenship requirements.  Those requirements allow a trustee firm to register aircraft in the US. Southern Aircraft Consultancy's registration service allows non-American owners to maintain N-registrations on their planes. Southern Aircraft Consultancy says it intends to transfer its business to a U.S.-based company.

The 15-track project blends classic pop, worldly electronic, country, classic rock, and piano solo with introspective lyricism that pushes aviation-themed music into new territory.

In this episode, I sit down with one of the most-watched independent voices in America for a wide-ranging conversation about the chaos and confusion many people feel right now. We talk about Minnesota unrest and immigration enforcement, why so many Americans feel politically homeless, and what it looks like when trust in institutions collapses. We also get into foreign policy, censorship, “unaskable” topics, and why preparedness matters more than ever, financially, physically, and spiritually. This is a raw conversation about where the country is headed, why people feel like the system isn't accountable, and what a normal person can actually do to protect their family and future.Follow Jimmy on Instagram: instagram.com/mrjimmyrexWatch more episodes on YouTube: youtube.com/@mrjimmyrex

Show Notes This week on Mobile Suit Breakdown, an important update about what's coming next for the podcast, plus Nina finally gets to sate her curiosity (and yours) about the origins of motocross, and the state of the sport in the 1990s. And don't miss the real explanation behind Victory Gundam's obsession with bikes and bike battleships: it's all Tomino's fault (kind of)! Show notes will accompany part 2 next week. Mobile Suit Breakdown is written, recorded, and produced within Lenapehoking, the ancestral and unceded homeland of the Lenape, or Delaware, people. Before European settlers forced them to move west, the Lenape lived in New York City, New Jersey, and portions of New York State, Pennsylvania, Delaware, and Connecticut. Lenapehoking is still the homeland of the Lenape diaspora, which includes communities living in Oklahoma, Wisconsin, and Ontario. You can learn more about Lenapehoking, the Lenape people, and ongoing efforts to honor the relationship between the land and indigenous peoples by visiting the websites of the Delaware Tribe and the Manhattan-based Lenape Center. Listeners in the Americas and Oceania can learn more about the indigenous people of your area at https://native-land.ca/.

My guest this week is Kristina R. Gaddy, who returns to chat about her new book, a collaboration with Rhiannon Giddens, called Go Back and Fetch It: Recovering Early Black Music in the Americas for Fiddle and Banjo.The book picks up on the research Kristina did for her previous book Well of Souls: Uncovering the Banjo's Hidden History (you can hear our conversation about that here). Crucially though, this volume doesn't just present a series of tunes as research pieces, it includes both banjo transcriptions and standard music notation, so people can play the music and give it a place in the current repertoire.We talk about why so little music was collected from black people in the Americas (fewer than 10 songs before 1861 were collected in the United States that we definitely know are from Black musicians); why these tunes were collected and how; how the way they were collected (and who did the collecting) shaped what was gathered and much more.As always, it was fascinating talking to Kristina.You can find out more about Go Back and Fetch It (and buy the book) via the University of North Carolina Press.For more on Kristina and updates on her research, follow her on Instagram and Substack Support the show===Thanks to Bryan Sutton for his wonderful theme tune to Bluegrass Jam Along (and to Justin Moses for playing the fiddle!)

Private investor and analyst Craig Tindale joins the show to discuss his essay series, which explores the dangerous disconnect between global financial systems and the physical reality of material production. Tindale critiques prevailing neoclassical economic theories for promoting a "stateless" approach to price discovery, arguing that prioritizing the cheapest production has effectively offshored Western sovereignty and industrial capacity to rivals like China. The discussion highlights how China has secured a "kill shot" position by controlling 50% to 98% of the world's refined smelter capacity for critical metals, including silver, copper, and rare earths essential for AI data centers and military defense. Drawing on historical parallels from Alexander Hamilton and World War I, Tindale explains how the high cost of capital in the West acts as a strategic disadvantage, penalizing industrial projects while state-sponsored competitors bypass these financial hurdles. Concluding with a call for urgent reform, Tindall emphasizes the need to re-establish onshore capabilities and refine the Federal Reserve's models to prioritize national resilience over speculative financialization before the window for structural change closes.-----TerraHutton empowers junior mining companies to secure investment with immersive, interactive, and visually striking storytelling.

On today's show, host Esty Dinur is joined by Alfred W. McCoy to talk about his latest book, Cold War on Five Continents: A Global History of Empire and Espionage, available from Haymarket Books. His book offers an intimate portrait of both covert operatives and antiwar activists, thus humanizing a history often told in impersonal terms of nuclear arsenals or diplomatic ententes. Turning away from the usual focus of the Moscow-Washington stalemate, McCoy looks at the regions of the world where the Cold War was actually fought, arguing that Southeast Asia experienced the worst of Cold War violence. From South Vietnam to the Middle East, to Africa and Latin America the major world powers fought surrogate wars amounting to 20 million deaths.  McCoy describes how the US spread its military around the world and operated covertly in Afghanistan, Angola, and elsewhere. He says that the first success of “the man on the spot,” Kermit Roosevelt Jr., was in Iran where he helped to install the Shah in “a spectacularly successful exhibit of regime change.” McCoy says that we're currently seeing a “radical shift in US geopolitical posture” moving away from “an international system of law and commerce to becoming a regional hegemony” as seen in what McCoy calls Trump's “tri-continental strategy.” Trump has decided to concentrate US power in the Americas, from Canada to Greenland and Venezuela. He says that Trump views oil and power as synonymous, but this is a miscalculation on Trump's part. McCoy sees the era of oil as over and the next horizon is in renewables and will be dominated by China.  Alfred W. McCoy holds the Harrington chair in history at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. Since earning a history doctorate in 1977, his teaching and writing have focused on Southeast Asian history, modern empires, and the covert netherworld of syndicate crime and state security.

In the year’s first podcast, we examine the factors that could help overcome ongoing geoeconomic uncertainty, helping achieve trend growth outcomes in the US, China, and Singapore. The year has begun under the shadow of a highly assertive US pushing its hegemonic agenda. Both externally and domestically, Donald Trump has taken a largely imperialist posture, subject to hardly any checks from the other arms of the government. His goals include achieving energy and rare earth material security, forcing neighbours in the Americas into acquiescence, curtailing China’s power, and supporting right wing regimes worldwide. We are however doubtful that his actions would secure the House of Representatives in November. Beyond the political dynamic, short of an AI bubble burst, the US economy is poised to grow in line with trend this year, led by consumption. A weak job market and easing inflation pressure would keep the Fed cutting the policy rate more, drama around Fed Chair notwithstanding. We worry about the erosion of institutional integrity in the US, but the ramifications are in the medium term, with investors likely to remain enthusiastic about holding US assets in the near term. On China, we recognise both its struggles with the property sector and the tailwind emanating from an impressive tech wave. The spillover from China’s expanding manufacturing base is positive for trade-oriented economies, contrary to the narrative of predatory excess capacity. On Singapore, we see a number of levers in place to propel growth this year and beyond. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

A sudden shift in US policy has put Venezuela back at the center of global oil markets. US and international oil executives are striking different tones on Venezuela after President Donald Trump said the White House will decide which companies are allowed back into the country's oil sector following the US seizure of Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro on Jan. 3.  Heavy oil price discounts are already reacting to expectations of increased Venezuelan supply. Can Venezuela meaningfully boost production after years of underinvestment? Who benefits from cheaper heavy crude? Join Jeff Mower, Director of Americas Oil News, as he discusses these issues and more with S&P Global Energy oil policy reporters Kate Winston and Eamonn Brennan, and Patrick Harrington, Americas oil markets manager.

Sweet potatoes were among the American crops Christopher Columbus brought back to Europe—where they were thought to be an aphrodisiac. In China, this versatile root became a staple that fueled rapid population growth. Introduced to Japan to stave off famine, sweet potatoes later sustained the country's imperial expansion. Because this hardy plant can thrive in almost any soil, it has long been cultivated as a subsistence crop in Southeast Asia, Africa, and Oceania. In recent years, Western health experts have begun touting the humble sweet potato as a “superfood” with numerous nutritional benefits. Considering these events and many others, Staple to Superfood: A Global History of the Sweet Potato (Columbia UP, 2025) explores the sweet potato's rich history and remarkable global influence. Dr. Q. Edward Wang demonstrates how this resilient root has not only nourished communities but also defined their identities. Tracing its journeys through the intricate networks of global trade and cultural exchange, he shows how the sweet potato transformed agricultural practices, culinary traditions, and social structures worldwide. From the Americas to Europe to Asia and the Pacific, the spread of this crop illuminates the varied paths that global development has taken. Dr. Wang also contrasts the sweet potato with its botanically unrelated namesake, the white potato. Blending agricultural, cultural, and historical perspectives, Staple to Superfood offers a fresh look at the power of food to transform societies. It is a compelling exploration of how the sweet potato shaped the modern world and continues to influence global food systems today. This interview was conducted by Dr. Miranda Melcher whose book focuses on post-conflict military integration, understanding treaty negotiation and implementation in civil war contexts, with qualitative analysis of the Angolan and Mozambican civil wars.

AI is changing the energy system faster than almost anything we've seen in decades. Interim host, engineer and energy analyst Bridget Van Dorsten is joined by Ed Crooks, host of Energy Gang and Vice-chair of the Americas at Wood Mackenzie, for a wide-ranging conversation about what's really driving energy decisions in 2026. From data centres and “speed to power” to energy affordability and US energy dominance, they unpack why reliability, cost and scale are now front of mind for governments, utilities and technology companies.Bridget and Ed discuss which technologies could step up to meet the demand, from long-duration storage and advanced nuclear to geothermal and grid-enhancing technologies, and whether AI itself could help accelerate innovation across the energy system. Then they debate the costs; how much does AI really cost us in emissions and capital that could arguably be better spent elsewhere. Are data centres out-competing the energy transition for capital and grid access? And what happens if today's AI investment boom starts to cool, or the bubble bursts?See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Robert Mullin, CIO of Marathon Resource Advisors, joins the show to discuss the 2026 commodity cycle, which he argues is primarily driven by a decade of radical underinvestment across the natural resource sector. Mullin details how a long-term decline in CapEx—falling from $600 billion to just $100 billion annually—has created structural "pinch points" as global demand for strategic metals and energy reaches a geopolitical imperative. The conversation highlights the recent momentum in gold, explaining that the market shifted in 2025 when Western investors finally joined central banks as buyers to diversify their portfolios against underperforming US bonds. Addressing current sentiment, the guests warn that while the sector is in a "healthier market" with institutional backing, investors must still brace for "gut-wrenching volatility". Finally, Mullin provides a reality check on the oil market, dismissing the idea of an immediate supply glut from Venezuela as a "fantasy" due to the country's decimated infrastructure and the massive capital required to restore production.----TerraHutton empowers junior mining companies to secure investment with immersive, interactive, and visually striking storytelling.

Words can't quite fully capture the activity, oddity, and awe that is everywhere around us, but poet Kimberly Blaeser makes a gorgeous attempt in her poem “my journal records the vestiture of doppelgangers.” The three stanzas overflow with an exuberance of colorful creatures — from checked loons and flitting mayflies to a “blissful beaver” and a “red squirrel swimming (yes! swimming)” — and with love — love of the natural world, of looking, of language, of the language of looking, and of being present for such everyday wonders. We invite you to subscribe to Pádraig's weekly Poetry Unbound Substack, read the Poetry Unbound books and his newest work, Kitchen Hymns, or listen to all our Poetry Unbound episodes. Kimberly Blaeser, former Wisconsin Poet Laureate and founding director of In-Na-Po, Indigenous Nations Poets, is a writer, photographer, and scholar. Her poetry collections include Copper Yearning, Apprenticed to Justice, and Résister en dansant/Ikwe-niimi: Dancing Resistance. Recipient of a Lifetime Achievement Award from Native Writers' Circle of the Americas, Blaeser is an Anishinaabe activist and environmentalist enrolled at White Earth Nation.

PREVIEW FOR LATER TONIGHT HEZBOLLAH'S EXPLOITATION OF VENEZUELAN INSTABILITYColleague David Daoud, Foundation for Defense of Democracies. John Batchelor and David Daoud discuss Hezbollah's operations in Venezuela and the Americas, which involve illicit drugs and other activities. Daoud suggests that Hezbollah's future depends on whether Venezuela establishes a durable, pro-American government to enforce the rule of law or remains in chaos, which the group would exploit.1954 VENEZUELA

If you look at the successful people in the world, they have a few things in common.   They strategized, planned, worked, and then published the outcome of their work.   From the railroad tycoons of the Americas to the car manufacturers like Henry Ford, they all had something in common.........they shared their secrets to success after doing the work.    In my life, setting up myself for success operates on one condition........that I put it on the calendar.    I get up in the morning, hit the gym and get a work out in whether I want to or not.   I get into work and put my head down.  My main objective is to get everything done so I can get home and go see my family.    Have family dinners.    Attend date nights.   Take vacations.    If you want to be successful, you have to get into the habits of doing the simple things, the unsexy things every single day.    About the ReWire Podcast   The ReWire Podcast with Ryan Stewman – Dive into powerful insights as Ryan Stewman, the HardCore Closer, breaks down mental barriers and shares actionable steps to rewire your thoughts.

Donate (no account necessary) | Subscribe (account required) Join Bryan Dean Wright, former CIA Operations Officer, as he dives into today's top stories shaping America and the world. In this Monday Headline Brief of The Wright Report, Bryan breaks down the explosive growth of anti-ICE protests, the Democrat Party's accelerating push to abolish deportations altogether, and the deadly confrontation in Minneapolis that has become a national flashpoint. He then turns to major global developments involving Venezuela, Mexico, Iran, Honduras, Syria, and the rising clash between Marxist movements and the American Republic. Abolish ICE Goes Mainstream: What was once a fringe socialist demand has now become a central position inside the Democratic Party. From Senator Kristen Gillibrand to Representatives AOC and Ilhan Omar, Democratic leaders are openly calling for the abolition of ICE and the end of deportations. Bryan explains how this movement began more than a decade ago alongside calls to open America's southern border and why it represents a fundamental challenge to national sovereignty. The Minneapolis Shooting and the Legal Reality: New video and body camera footage show activist Renee Good using her vehicle first as a protest tool and then as a weapon after being urged to drive forward into an ICE officer. Bryan walks through the legal standard set by the Supreme Court case Tennessee v. Garner, explaining why the officer's use of force is likely lawful despite intense political pressure to prosecute him at the state level. Doxxing, Threats, and Escalating Violence: ICE officers in Minneapolis are being doxxed, threatened, and forced to relocate with their families for safety. Activists have shouted death threats, thrown objects, and targeted hotels housing federal agents. Bryan warns that the line between protest and organized violence is rapidly disappearing. Democrat Officials Push Defiance: Local and national Democrats are openly encouraging resistance. Minneapolis City Council leaders texted supporters to block ICE vehicles, Philadelphia's sheriff vowed to arrest ICE agents, and Representative Eric Swalwell praised prosecutors who threaten federal officers. Bryan argues this rhetoric now borders on seditious conspiracy. ICE Expands Enforcement Nationwide: The Trump administration has doubled the size of ICE over the past year, offering large signing bonuses and deploying contractors to locate 1.5 million illegal aliens with final removal orders. New tools include facial recognition and interagency databases, raising both effectiveness and civil liberties debates. Venezuela Descends into Chaos: Armed gangs known as colectivos are rampaging through Caracas, hunting suspected collaborators after Nicolás Maduro's capture. The White House reposted accounts suggesting U.S. forces used advanced directed energy weapons during the raid, a message Bryan says is aimed squarely at China and other adversaries. Trump Signals China to Leave the Hemisphere: Administration officials confirmed that the Venezuela operation was intended to warn Beijing to withdraw from Central and South America. U.S. oil executives are being pushed to invest in Venezuela, while Trump blocked courts from seizing oil revenues collected by the United States. Mexico, Colombia, and the Marxist Bloc: Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum shipped oil to Cuba over the weekend, prompting warnings from the White House. Colombia's president resumed attacking Trump with rhetoric echoed by U.S. Democrats, highlighting a coordinated leftist response across the Americas. Iran on the Brink: At least two thousand protestors are reported dead as the Iranian regime shuts down internet access and threatens mass executions. The Pentagon is preparing strike options for President Trump, while protestors chant against the Ayatollah and openly discuss restoring a transitional government led by the former Shah's son.   "And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." - John 8:32     Keywords: January 12 2026 Wright Report, abolish ICE Democrats, Renee Good Minneapolis shooting video, Tennessee v Garner deadly force standard, ICE officer doxxing threats, Tim Walz resistance rhetoric, ICE facial recognition contractors, Venezuela colectivos chaos, directed energy weapon raid claim, Trump China Western Hemisphere warning, Mexico oil to Cuba Sheinbaum, Colombia Petro anti Trump rhetoric, Iran protests internet blackout Ayatollah
