Mục tiêu thực sự của chiến dịch « Rising Lion » do Israel tiến hành từ ngày 13/06/2025 không chỉ nhằm mục đích vô hiệu hóa các cơ sở hạt nhân của Iran. Nhà nước Do Thái chủ yếu muốn đẩy nhanh sự sụp đổ của chế độ Teheran. Tuy nhiên, giới chuyên gia cảnh báo một sự thay đổi chế độ chỉ có thể dẫn đến việc trao quyền lực cho lực lượng Vệ binh Cách mạng. Cho đến hiện tại, các điểm tấn công của Israel tại Iran cho thấy, trong ngắn hạn, mục tiêu của thủ tướng Benjamin Netanyahu là bắn phá các cơ sở hạt nhân Iran nhằm giảm đáng kể chương trình vũ khí của nước này. Nhưng thủ tướng Israel đã nói rõ là cuộc chiến với Iran « chắc chắn » có thể dẫn đến một sự thay đổi chế độ tại nước Cộng hòa Hồi giáo. Đây chẳng phải là điều bí mật. Từ lâu chính phủ Israel cũng như nhiều quan chức các đời tổng thống Mỹ đều mong muốn sự sụp đổ của chính phủ Iran hiện nay. Tình hình tại Iran sẽ biến đổi ra sao trong trường hợp chính quyền Teheran hiện nay sụp đổ ? Cơ cấu quyền lực ở Iran Nước Cộng hòa Hồi giáo được giáo chủ Ruhollah Khomeini thành lập năm 1979 và có một cơ cấu chính phủ mang các yếu tố dân chủ, thần quyền và độc tài. Nhà nước được điều hành bởi các giáo sĩ và các nhà lập pháp Hồi giáo nhằm bảo đảm rằng mọi chính sách đều tuân thủ luật Hồi giáo. Vì Iran từng là quốc gia quân chủ lập hiến trước cách mạng, nên các yếu tố thần quyền đã được ghép vào các yếu tố cộng hòa hiện có chẳng hạn như Nghị Viện, Hành pháp và Tư pháp. Tuy nhiên, hệ thống lập pháp của Iran là đơn viện (nghĩa là một viện Quốc hội duy nhất), còn được gọi là Majles và nước này cũng có tổng thống (hiện nay là ông Masoud Pezeshkian). Hai định chế này được bầu chọn qua các cuộc bầu cử thường kỳ. Dù vậy, theo giải thích trên trang The Conversation từ nhà nghiên cứu Andrew Thomas, chuyên gia về Trung Đông, đại học Deakin, tuy được bao phủ các yếu tố dân chủ, trên thực tế đây là một « mạch khép kín », giúp giới giáo sĩ duy trì quyền lực và ngăn chặn mọi thách thức đối với lãnh đạo tinh thần tối cao, vị trí cao nhất trong một hệ thống quyền lực được phân cấp rất rõ ràng, mà người đứng đầu hiện nay là giáo chủ Ali Khamenei. Năm nay 86 tuổi, và từng là cựu tổng thống, Ali Khamenei đã được Hội đồng chuyên gia (gần giống với Thượng Viện) – một cơ quan bao gồm 88 nhà luật học Hồi giáo – chọn trở thành lãnh đạo tối cao vào năm 1989 sau khi giáo chủ Khomeini qua đời. Nếu như các thành viên của Quốc Hội, Hội đồng chuyên gia cũng như tổng thống được bầu chọn qua lá phiếu phổ thông trực tiếp, thì tư cách các ứng viên tranh cử thành viên Quốc Hội, Hội đồng, cũng như tổng thống trước hết phải được Hội đồng Giám hộ (Hội đồng Bảo hiến) quyền lực thông qua. Định chế này có 12 thành viên, nhưng một nửa trong số này là do lãnh đạo tối cao bổ nhiệm, một nửa còn lại là do Quốc Hội chỉ định. Cuối cùng, đích thân giáo chủ, lãnh đạo tinh thần tối cao là người bổ nhiệm người đứng đầu các cơ quan quan trọng của chính phủ, như cơ quan tư pháp, lực lượng vũ trang và lực lượng Vệ binh Cách mạng Hồi giáo (IRGC). IRGC đầy quyền lực Nhìn vào cơ cấu này, đối với các nhà quan sát phương Tây, Iran còn xa mới là một nền dân chủ. Nhưng họ cũng nhìn nhận rằng một sự thay đổi chế độ có thể dẫn đến một nền dân chủ hoàn toàn đi theo Mỹ và Israel cũng là điều không thể, do nền chính trị Iran cực kỳ chia rẽ phe phái. Các phe phái tư tưởng như phe cải cách, phe ôn hòa và phe bảo thủ, luôn có những bất đồng sâu sắc về những chính sách quan trọng. Họ tranh giành ảnh hưởng với lãnh đạo tối cao, cũng như trong giới tinh hoa giáo sĩ. Nhưng không một phe phái nào trong số này đặc biệt ủng hộ Mỹ, càng không ủng hộ Israel. Rồi còn có các phe phái trong các định chế. Trong số này, quyền lực nhất nước là hàng giáo sĩ do lãnh đạo tối cao điều hành. Tiếp đến là Vệ binh Cách mạng. Ban đầu được lập ra như một lực lượng cảnh vệ riêng cho giáo chủ, IRGC ngày nay có một sức mạnh quân sự sánh ngang với cả quân đội chính quy. Mang tư tưởng chính trị cực đoan, IRGC có tầm ảnh hưởng ở cấp quốc gia đôi khi vượt xa tổng thống, gây áp lực đáng kể lên các chính sách của tổng thống, và chỉ công khai ủng hộ những tổng thống nào theo đuổi học thuyết cách mạng Hồi giáo nghiêm ngặt. Không chỉ kiểm soát thiết bị quân sự và ảnh hưởng chính trị, IRGC còn có mối liên hệ chặt chẽ với nền kinh tế Iran. Bị đánh giá như là một « tổ chức tham nhũng », quả thực, giới chức lực lượng Vệ binh Cách mạng đã làm giầu đáng kể nhờ vào các hợp đồng được chính phủ trao, cũng như là việc tham gia điều hành « nền kinh tế ngầm » nhằm lách lệnh trừng phạt của Mỹ và phương Tây. Nguy cơ đi từ chế độ « thần quyền – quân sự » sang « quân sự » Nhìn từ những góc độ này, và trong bối cảnh cuộc không chiến giữa Israel và Iran diễn ra dữ dội từ hôm 13/06, nhà nghiên cứu người Úc Andrew Thomas đánh giá khả năng IRGC sẽ là tổ chức chính trị nắm quyền kiểm soát Iran là rất cao nếu hàng giáo sĩ bị gạt khỏi quyền lực. Đây cũng là quan điểm và nỗi lo của một bộ phận giới nghiên cứu tại Pháp gốc Trung Đông khi e rằng cái chết của ông Ali Khamenei « có lẽ sẽ không giúp thay đổi chế độ » hay cho phép « chấm dứt xung đột ». Trên đài RFI Pháp ngữ, nhà xã hội Azadeh Kian, giáo sư tại đại học Paris Cité giải thích : « Một mặt, người ta không biết lãnh đạo tối cao đang ở đâu và liệu rằng Israel có thực hiện kế hoạch ám sát ông ấy hay không. Mặt khác, tôi nghĩ rằng quyền lực có lẽ đã nằm trong tay Vệ binh Cách mạng, thậm chí cả trước khi diễn ra các cuộc không kích của Israel. Vì vậy, ông ấy không còn ở đó nữa và người cũng sẽ không thể lật đổ chế độ nhưng quyền lực đã được trao không phải cho hàng giáo sĩ mà là hoàn toàn cho Vệ binh Cách mạng. Hơn nữa tôi cũng được nghe nhiều thông tin mà hiện tôi chưa thể thẩm định theo đó lãnh tụ tối cao dường như đã chấp thuận trao cho Vệ binh Cách mạng quyền quyết định. Nếu như vậy, thì chúng ta đang chuyển từ chế độ "thần quyền – quân sự" sang chế độ "quân sự". » Vẫn theo nhà xã hội người Pháp gốc Iran này, trong thời chiến, Vệ binh Cách mạng sẽ thâu tóm nhiều quyền lực hơn. Đây là lực lượng nắm quyền kiểm soát tên lửa đạn đạo và các hoạt động đáp trả. Nếu như các cuộc không kích của Israel đã giết chết một số tướng lĩnh Vệ binh, khiến nhiều người hả dạ và làm suy yếu phần nào chế độ, thì tất cả những điều này chưa đủ để cho chế độ Iran hiện hành có thể bị lật đổ. Trên làn sóng France Culture, nhà xã hội Azadeh Kian giải thích tiếp : « Ngay cả khi chế độ bị suy yếu, hay bị sụp đổ vì các cuộc oanh kích của Israel, liệu chúng ta đã có một giải pháp chính trị, dân chủ nào để có thể thay thế chế độ hiện nay hay là toàn khu vực Trung Đông có nguy cơ sẽ phải đối mặt với sự tan rã của đất nước, sự hỗn loạn … ? Đây thực sự là những câu hỏi quan trọng cần đặt ra và chúng cũng được nêu ra cho các nước trong vùng. Đương nhiên, việc các lãnh đạo, chỉ huy Vệ binh bị giết chết khiến người dân Iran hài lòng bởi đó là những người có trách nhiệm trong việc trấn áp phe đối lập. Nhưng điều đó không có nghĩa là chế độ sụp đổ bởi vì những người đó đã được thay thế nhanh chóng. Iran đã phóng hàng loạt tên lửa nhắm vào Israel. Điều này có nghĩa là lực lượng Vệ Binh vẫn chưa bị tan rã. » Lật đổ chế độ : Bài học Irak Đây cũng chính là quan điểm của nhà chính trị học Myriam Benraad, chuyên gia về Trung Đông, giảng viên trường đại học Khoa học Chính trị Sciences Po, khi trả lời phỏng vấn trang The Conversation. Việc Israel và Mỹ tìm cách tiêu diệt lãnh tụ tối cao Ali Khamenei gợi nhắc lại chính sách sai lầm của Mỹ tại Irak sau khi lật đổ chế độ Saddam Hussein năm 2003, vốn đã không mang lại một nền dân chủ,, mà đúng hơn là một sự hỗn loạn, và sự xuất hiện chế độ tài phiệt độc tài. « Chúng ta đang quay trở lại với giới hạn của học thuyết nổi tiếng về dân chủ hóa Trung Đông mà Mỹ mong muốn vào đầu những năm 2000, sau sự kiện ngày 11 tháng 9. Chính ngày 11 tháng 9 này mà vụ giết người hôm 07/10/2023 thường được đem ra so sánh. Khi đề cập đến việc thay đổi chế độ ở Iran, Netanyahu có ý định sao chép cách tiếp cận rất mang tính kiểu Bush về một cuộc chuyển đổi dân chủ và tự do lớn trong khu vực, một chuỗi sự kiện bắt đầu vào ngày 11 tháng 9. Nhưng có lẽ ông đang tự lừa dối mình nếu nghĩ rằng mọi việc sẽ diễn ra đơn giản như vậy. » Trong bối cảnh này, ngày 17/06/2025, vào lúc đối đầu quân sự giữa Israel và Iran bước vào ngày thứ năm, tổng thống Pháp Emmanuel Macron, bên lề thượng đỉnh G7 tại Canada, cảnh báo một sự thay đổi chế độ tại Iran sẽ đồng nghĩa với sự « hỗn loạn ».

Join Matt, Blaiden and Theo as they breakdown and rank the top 10 offensive tackles in the NFL on today's episode of Stay Hot
Send us a textIn this jam-packed live episode of 2 Giants Goofballs: New York Giants News & Updates, Drew and Rob dive into all the biggest headlines surrounding the Giants today. First, they break down the latest contract signings, with rookie quarterback Jaxson Dart officially inking his fully guaranteed four-year, $16.977 million deal. Third-round pick Darius Alexanders also joins the fold with a four-year contract worth $6.762 million. The future of the Giants quarterback room is starting to take shape, and fans have every reason to be excited.Adding to the buzz, franchise legend Eli Manning offers advice and mentorship to Dart, sharing powerful words about growth, leadership, and earning respect. We get insight into how closely Eli has followed Dart's journey and what it means for the New York Giants moving forward. Meanwhile, Pro Football Focus rankings have stirred up conversation around Andrew Thomas, who was ranked 15th among offensive tackles. Drew and Rob debate whether injuries are the only thing holding Thomas back from elite status. On the other hand, Dexter Lawrence continues to shine, earning the No. 2 spot among all defensive tackles — second only to Chris Jones.The Giants may not be done building. CBS Sports floated the idea of New York trading for Falcons tight end Kyle Pitts. At just 24 years old, Pitts could be the long-term answer at tight end and a game-changer in a Daboll-led offense featuring Malik Nabers and veteran Russell Wilson. The Goofballs break down the cap implications, the likelihood of the move, and what it would mean for the development of Jaxson Dart.In draft fallout news, Deion Sanders passionately defended his son Shedeur Sanders after rumors emerged about a reportedly poor meeting with Brian Daboll. Deion sets the record straight, and the guys talk about how misinformation can impact a player's reputation in the pre-draft process. Then, nostalgia hits as Odell Beckham Jr. drops a bombshell during CBS's Champions League broadcast, claiming he never wanted to leave the Giants. But we rewind the tape and remember why his exit wasn't so clean, especially after public shots at Eli Manning.Closing out the episode, Drew and Rob reveal their list of the Top 10 New York Giants players of the last 25 years. From franchise icons like Eli Manning, Michael Strahan, and Tiki Barber to modern stars like Dexter Lawrence and Odell Beckham Jr., they discuss legacy, impact, and who deserves their spot in Big Blue history.If you're a true NY Giants fan, this episode is a must-watch.

Send us a textThe latest live episode of 2 Giants Goofballs: New York Giants News & Updates brings you an in-depth breakdown of everything surrounding the New York Giants offseason, OTAs, and the biggest stories shaking up Giants Nation. Whether you're following giants news nfl, looking for the latest giants football news, or tracking giants offseason 2025 developments, this episode covers it all. Drew and Rob are joined by CBS Sports analyst and Football Gameplan founder Emory Hunt to kick off the show with a deep dive into the most impactful and controversial moments of the Giants offseason so far.In the exclusive interview, Emory shares his favorite move the Giants made this offseason, the biggest opportunity they may have missed, his take on the entire draft class, and what realistic expectations fans should have for the upcoming season. This segment alone makes the episode a must-watch for any fan invested in ny giants news and updates or curious about how the team is truly building for success.From there, the guys dig into the nuts and bolts of 2025 Giants OTAs. What exactly are OTAs? These organized team practice activities may not include full contact, but they offer critical early glimpses into how players are developing and how the roster may shape up. This episode outlines the top 10 most important things to watch during Giants practices, including Russell Wilson's growing rapport with wide receivers, where rookie standout Abdul Carter lines up, how the offensive line reshuffles with Andrew Thomas and Evan Neal, and what to expect from Jalin Hyatt after being repeatedly praised by Wilson in press conferences. From Jevon Holland's fit in the defense to the backup RB competition between Cam Skattebo and Devin Singletary, no storyline is left untouched.Drew and Rob also address one of the biggest swirling rumors around the Giants: is Jameis Winston on the trading block? With speculation heating up following the retirement of Derek Carr in New Orleans, some outlets like Bleacher Report have floated the idea of a Winston trade. But the hosts explain why trading Winston now would be a mistake, especially with rookie Jaxson Dart still developing behind Russell Wilson. Winston provides the flexibility the Giants need at quarterback, and removing him from the equation could create more chaos than clarity.Rounding out the episode is a celebration of a much-deserved recognition: ESPN's Aaron Schatz recently named Darius Slayton the most underrated wide receiver in the NFL. The guys react to the praise and break down why Slayton's consistent production—especially with unstable quarterback play—makes him a crucial part of the Giants offense alongside Malik Nabers. With advanced metrics like positive DVOA backing up his value and a new contract in place, Slayton is set up to continue producing under the radar in 2025.If you're looking for the most up-to-date and honest NY Giants podcast or searching giants youtube content that doesnVolleybird Subscription BoxesVolleybird.shop for curated pickleball subscription boxes delivered every 8 weeksSupport the showAll Episodes are shot LIVE with fan interactions on Youtube, Facebook, X, & Twitch.

Send us a textIn this in-depth episode of 2 Giants Goofballs: New York Giants News & Updates, hosts Drew and Rob dive into the full offensive roster of the New York Giants following the 2025 NFL Draft and a busy offseason of free agency. From revamped quarterback depth to an infusion of talent at wide receiver and tight end, the Giants offense has undergone a major overhaul that fans won't want to miss. This complete breakdown covers every offensive position group, examining which players are likely to make the 53-man roster, where key battles are brewing, and who might emerge as breakout stars in 2025.Starting with the quarterback room, the Giants have added veteran leadership and developmental upside. Russell Wilson leads the pack, with Jameis Winston providing experienced backup support, while Jaxson Dart and Tommy DeVito give the team developmental youth and preseason intrigue. It's a four-man group that offers a compelling mix of proven production and raw potential.At running back, the competition is just as intense. Rookie Tyrone Tracy Jr. brings a versatile skill set and explosiveness, while veteran Devin Singletary figures to be the early favorite for lead duties. Behind them, Cam Skattebo, Eric Gray, and Dante Miller round out a crowded backfield with a mix of power, agility, and special teams upside. The Giants are clearly aiming for depth and flexibility in a position that has seen high turnover in recent seasons.The wide receiver group might be the most exciting position on offense, anchored by first-round pick Malik Nabers. Nabers is expected to be a game-changer for the NY Giants, giving them the kind of WR1 threat they've lacked in years. He joins a solid cast including Wan'Dale Robinson, deep threat Darius Slayton, second-year speedster Jalin Hyatt, and experienced role players like Lil'Jordan Humphrey and Zach Pascal. Special teams contributors Ihmir Smith-Marsette and Montrell Washington, along with big-bodied receiver Bryce Ford-Wheaton, add further depth and intrigue to the competition.Tight end is another spot that has quietly gotten stronger. Returning starter Daniel Bellinger now shares the room with rookie athletic freak Theo Johnson, veteran blocker Chris Manhertz, Greg Dulcich—who brings pass-catching upside—and developmental prospect Thomas Fidone II. Whether it's in two-TE sets or in red zone formations, the Giants have more options than ever to create mismatches.On the offensive line, left tackle Andrew Thomas continues to be the cornerstone, now joined by Jermaine Eluemunor and James Hudson III, who bring experience and versatility. Rookie Stone Forsythe and swing lineman Joshua Ezeudu round out a deep tackle group. Inside, the guard spots have been upgraded with the additions of John Runyan and Greg Van Roten, while Aaron Stinnie, Evan Neal (transitioning inside), Marcus Mbow, and Jake Kubas provide a mix of veteran presence and youthful promise. At center, John Michael Schmitz is locked in as the starter with Austin Schlottman, Jimmy Morrissey, and Bryan Hudson offering depth and competition behind him.This full offensive breakdown gives New York Giants fans the clearest look yet at what the team is building for the 2025 season.

It's time for our annual NFL Draft preview! In this college football podcast episode, we welcome back Nate Tice of Yahoo Sports for an in-depth look at this year's class.

In this edition of Madison Book Beat, host Andrew Thomas speaks with AJ Romriell on his debut memoir Wolf Act (University of Wisconsin Press, 2025).Wolf Act is a “memoir in essays,” and these essays take on a variety of forms. The work is divided into three different Acts, and each act is made up of chapters that are both interlinked but can also stand on their own as well. While the majority of the prose is narrative nonfiction, there are a number of chapters that include lengthy lists, definition entries like you would find in a dictionary, as well as passages that mirror a kind of Mormon liturgy and educational upbringing.As the title suggests, wolves are a central metaphor throughout the work, and Romriell seamlessly weaves in references to wolves from mythology, fables, fairy tales, and religious beliefs as a way of processing his exit from the Mormon faith and his intentional turn towards self-love and joy.AJ Romriell is a storyteller, photographer, and educator. His memoir Wolf Act is about his experience growing up queer and neurodivergent in the Mormon religion; it earned first prize in the Utah Original Writing Competition and was a finalist for the Writers' League of Texas Manuscript Contest. He is a 2025 Pushcart nominee, and his essays, stories, and poems have been featured in Electric Literature, The Missouri Review, Michigan Quarterly Review, Black Warrior Review, Brevity, New Delta Review, and elsewhere. He has been the recipient of the Vandewater Prize in Poetry, the Kenneth W. Brewer Creative Writing Award, and the Ralph Jennings Smith Creative Writing Endowment, and his work has been shortlisted for Ploughshares' Emerging Writer's Contest, CRAFT's Hybrid Writing Contest, and the Black Warrior Review and New Ohio Review contests for creative nonfiction.

Send us a textDrew and Rob break down all the latest New York Giants news, including draft prospects, quarterback options, and the recent NFLPA report card that ranked the franchise's facilities and team culture. They start with a deep dive into the Giants' draft strategy, discussing potential targets in the upcoming draft. The “Would You Rather?” segment puts the spotlight on some of the most intriguing college prospects, including two-way star Travis Hunter, pass rushers like Abdul Carter, and standout quarterback options like Shedeur Sanders and Cam Ward. With multiple positions of need, the Giants have several directions they could go on draft night. Quarterback remains the hottest topic, and rumors suggest that Matthew Stafford is the team's top priority at the position. ESPN's Jordan Raanan reported that the Giants are keeping a close eye on Stafford's situation with the Rams before making any major moves. But is Stafford the right answer for New York? The hosts discuss alternative QB options in another “Would You Rather?” segment, comparing names like Kirk Cousins, Russell Wilson, Justin Fields, and even current Giants quarterback Tommy DeVito. Could a young quarterback like Jaxson Dart or Cam Ward be a better long-term investment, or does New York need a veteran presence to steady the ship? The conversation then shifts to the Giants' NFLPA player report card, which revealed some concerning trends. After ranking eighth overall last year, the Giants dropped significantly in key areas. Ownership, led by John Mara, saw its grade drop from a B+ to a C+, with players ranking the team 22nd out of 32 in terms of commitment to facilities and fostering a winning culture. The treatment of families, locker room quality, and nutrition programs also received disappointing marks. However, there were bright spots, as the strength and conditioning coaches earned an A-, and Brian Daboll still has the support of most players despite some concerns about his receptiveness to feedback. On the injury front, there's good news for Giants fans. Dexter Lawrence was seen competing at the Pro Bowl and appears to be in good shape. Andrew Thomas is also progressing well, with no boot on his foot and reports that he's been active in the weight room. John Michael Schmitz, Joshua Ezeudu, and other offensive linemen have been putting in work during the offseason, showing dedication to improving for next year. The show wraps up with a look at Howard Cross III, a potential Giants draft target and the son of former Giants legend Howard Cross. The Notre Dame defensive lineman has deep ties to the franchise and has expressed his desire to follow in his father's footsteps. Cross embraces his underdog mentality, comparing himself to Batman—relying on film study, skill, and intelligence rather than brute strength. He believes his speed and versatility could complement a dominant force like Dexter Lawrence if given the chance to suit up in blue. With so many moving pieces this offseason, the Giants have crucial decisions to make. From potential QB acquisitions to draft-day targets, every move will shape the franchise's future.

From classical concertos to jazz and rock & roll, from symphonic masterpieces to the most experimental compositions of living composers, Haas has championed, commissioned, unearthed and celebrated music for his instrument, becoming, as Ovation magazine hailed him, "The Paganini of the timpani."His concerts on the world's most prestigious musical stages and his ground-breaking recordings have delighted critics and listeners on both sides of the ocean. The New York Times wrote, "Wherever one finds a percussion instrument waiting to be rubbed, shook, struck or strummed, [Haas] is probably nearby, ready to fulfill his duties with consummate expertise... he is a masterful young percussionist."Most recently, Haas has garnered widespread praise and attention for his performances of Philip Glass' Concerto Fantasy for Two Timpanists and Orchestra, a piece conceived by Haas and completed because of his quest to spotlight the timpani. The Concerto Fantasy features not only two timpanists, but also 14 timpani, all placed downstage in front of the orchestra. In 2000, Haas performed the world premiere of the piece with the American Symphony, and he has subsequently performed it at Carnegie Hall and in Phoenix, New Jersey, Baltimore, Pasadena, Long Beach (California), St. Louis and Mexico City. Haas also performed the European premiere with the BBC Symphony in London, the world premiere of a chamber orchestra version with the Iris Chamber Orchestra in Memphis, the Czechoslovakian premiere with the Prague Symphony Orchestra at the International Music Prague Spring Festival, the Norwegian premiere with the Bergen Philharmonic, and he will perform the Australian premiere with the Sydney Symphony and the Turkish premiere with the Istanbul Philharmonic.Haas' successful efforts to expand the timpani repertoire have led him to commission and premiere more than 25 works by composers in addition to Philip Glass such as Stephen Albert, Marius Constant, Irwin Bazelon, Eric Ewazen, Thomas Hamilton, Robert Hall Lewis, Jean Piche, Karlheinz Stockhausen, Andrew Thomas, and many others.Haas built the world's largest timpani and debuted it in 2003 at the Aspen Music Festival. This unprecendented, incredible instrument -- nearly 6' wide and nearly 4' tall – beats the world's second-largest timpani — a 48-incher used by Amsterdam's Concertgebouw Orchestra — by almost half.Haas' recordings include the trail-blazing 18th Century Concertos for Timpani and Orchestra and Johnny H. and the Prisoners of Swing, both on Sunset Records. The latter was named for his jazz group and features innovative renderings of jazz compositions featuring "hot timpani" in front of a full jazz ensemble. His rediscovery of Duke Ellington's brilliant composition for jazz timpani, "Tympaturbably Blue," is included on this recording, as are other jazz standards played on a set of ten kettledrums.Demonstrating a remarkable versatility as a musician, Haas has performed and recorded with Emerson, Lake and Palmer, played on the Grammy Award-winning recording Zappa's Universe, recorded with Aerosmith, Michael Bolton, Black Sabbath, and explored heavy metal with his rock group Clozshave.The rarest of modern virtuosi, Haas embarked on his career as a solo timpanist by performing the only solo timpani recital ever presented at Carnegie Recital Hall in 1980. As an orchestral soloist, he made his debut with the New York Chamber Orchestra under Maxim Shostakovich and his European solo debut with the Bournemouth Sinfonietta. He made his French debut performing Andrez Panufnick's Concerto for Percussion, Timpani and Orchestra with the Orchestra de la Garde Republicaine. He was the soloist in the Druschetsky Concerto for Eight Timpani, Oboe and Orchestra with the Aspen Chamber Orchestra. He has also performed as a solo timpanist for the Distinguished Artists Recital Series at New York's 92nd Street ‘Y' and as a guest artist with the Lincoln Center Chamber Society, the Chamber Music at the ‘Y' Series, and the Newport Chamber Music Festival. He has championed new music by presenting adventuresome programming such as The Music of Frank Zappa, showcasing the music of Edgar Varese and Frank Zappa, under the auspices of Lincoln Center's Great Performers Series.Haas is the principal timpanist of the New York Chamber Orchestra, the Aspen Chamber Orchestra and EOS Ensemble, principal percussionist of the American Symphony Orchestra, and a member of the American Composers Orchestra. He performs with the Orpheus Chamber Orchestra, Mostly Mozart Festival Orchestra, New York Pops, and New Jersey Symphony and has performed and recorded with the New York Philharmonic, the Stuttgart Chamber Orchestra and the St. Louis Symphony Orchestra.A graduate of Washington University in St. Louis, Haas received his Master's Degree from the Juilliard School as a student of Saul Goodman. An inspiring teacher, he has been the director of the Peabody Conservatory Percussion Studio for twenty years and a faculty artist of the Aspen Music School, and he conducts the percussion ensembles at both schools. He has presented master classes throughout the United States and internationally at the Toho Gauken, Hanoi Conservatory, Paris Conservatory, and the Graz Percussion School. Sharing his enthusiasm for music with young people, he has presented over two hundred concert-demonstrations with his "Drumfire" program, under the auspices of the Lincoln Center Institute, the New York Chamber Symphony's Sidney Wolff Children's Concert Series, and the Aspen Festival Young Person's Concert Series.As active an entrepreneur as he is an artist, Haas heads Sunset Records, Kettles and Company, and Gemini Music Productions which contracts musicians for Lincoln Center, New York Pops, and many other organizations. He also works closely with percussion industry manufacturers Pearl/Adams, Promark and Zildjian, among others.Clayton Craddock founded Broadway Drumming 101, an in-depth online platform offering specialized mentorship and a carefully curated collection of resources tailored for aspiring and professional musicians.Clayton's Broadway and Off-Broadway credits include tick, tick…BOOM!, Altar Boyz, Memphis The Musical, Lady Day at Emerson's Bar and Grill, Ain't Too Proud – The Life and Times of The Temptations, Cats: The Jellicle Ball, and The Hippest Trip: The Soul Train Musical.

Send us a textIn this episode of *2 Giants Goofballs: New York Giants News & Updates*, Drew and Rob explore a wide range of compelling topics, giving fans a comprehensive update on all things New York Giants. From Eli Manning's aspirations of becoming a part-owner of the Giants to a detailed review of the team's offensive line performance in 2024, this episode covers it all. The hosts begin by discussing Eli Manning's recent comments to CNBC Sports about his potential interest in owning a stake in the Giants. Manning expressed that his heart remains with the team he played for over 16 years, sparking excitement about what his involvement could mean for the franchise's future. Drew and Rob weigh the implications of such a move and reflect on Eli's passion for the Giants even in retirement. Next, the duo considers whether the Giants should pursue Antonio Pierce as their next defensive coordinator. With Pierce's strong ties to the Giants as a former player and his growing resume as a coach, including a stint as the Las Vegas Raiders' head coach in 2024, they analyze how his leadership and experience might elevate the Giants' defense. Another highlight of the episode is a look at a hypothetical "team of ex-Giants," compiled by Dan Benton of GiantsWire. This roster features players who once wore Giants blue, including Odell Beckham Jr., Saquon Barkley, Leonard Williams, and Xavier McKinney. The exercise serves as a bittersweet reminder of the talent the Giants have let go over the years, while also spotlighting positions where the team continues to struggle in finding long-term solutions. The episode also features an in-depth review of the Giants' offensive line in 2024, detailing the performances of key players such as Andrew Thomas, John Michael Schmitz, and Evan Neal. Despite flashes of promise from some linemen, injuries and inconsistent play plagued the unit throughout the season. The hosts delve into the PFF grades, penalties, and sacks allowed by each player, examining how the line's struggles contributed to the Giants' broader issues on offense. With engaging discussions, thought-provoking insights, and the latest Giants news and rumors, this episode is a must-watch for fans eager to stay informed on all aspects of the team. From Eli's ownership dreams to the search for defensive leadership and the offensive line's challenges, Drew and Rob leave no stone unturned in their analysis of the Giants' 2024 season and future.#giants #nygiants #nflSupport the showAll Episodes are shot LIVE with fan interactions on Youtube, Facebook, Twitter, & TwitchSponsor the show at: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/2giantgoofballsInterested in starting a podcast.

Dr Andrew Thomas is a senior lecturer of psychology at Swansea University and a writer. The topic of involuntarily celibates is a spicy one. Half of the internet fears them and the other half pities them, very few have researched about why these communities come together and who constitutes them. Andrew's new work looks at this in fascinating detail. Expect to learn whether incels should be looked at from a mental health perspective, why there isn't more incel violence, what the word Himpathy means, whether incels are all sexually entitled, what Andrew has learned about men's experiences with female therapists and much more...

Hour 1 The Mets are on the brink of elimination. The Yankees lost last night in walk off fashion. Boomer talked about the importance of the bullpen in both of these series. It feels like the magic has run out for the Mets. Gio is going to the Mets game tonight. Gio doesn't think last night's win is going to ‘catapult' the Guardians. He thinks the Yankees win in five. The Dodgers have seemed to figure out Francisco Lindor. Jerry is here for his first update of the day and starts with Judge and Stanton going back to back to make it 4-3 Yankees with John Sterling on the call. Then the Guardians came back to tie it in the ninth and win it in the tenth and we heard the call from Guardians radio. We heard from Howie Rose as Mookie Betts hit a 2-run HR as the Dodgers are now up 3-1 on the Mets. The Broncos went into New Orleans and had no problem beating the Saints. In the final segment of the hour, Max Muncy is always on base for the Dodgers. Their relief pitching has been better and their top end stars have shown up for this series and the Mets' top end stars have not. Hour 2 Jerry Recco is in studio because a talk show host in Cleveland, Ken Carman, is annoying him on Twitter. He must listen to the Warm Up Show on his way to work in Cleveland and has an issue with a few of the things Jerry said about the Guardians. Jerry put him in his place. Jerry returns for an update and we hear the Cleveland radio call as Judge and Stanton went back to back. Cleveland came back with homers by Noel in the ninth and Fry in the 10th and we heard John Sterling on the call. We heard from Howie Rose as Ohtani hit a lead off HR last night in Queens. Mets players are staying positive as we heard some post game sound from Lindor and Alonso. The Broncos went into New Orleans and dominated the Saints. Evan Neal was asked about not playing as the Giants are now dealing with the injury to Andrew Thomas. Davante Adams said he's not feeling any pressure coming to the Jets. In the final segment of the hour, tonight's Mets game is at 5:08pm and Gio is imploring fans to get there early and get into it. The Mets have not given the fans anything to cheer for. Twice last night with the bases loaded and they came away with nothing. In tonight's Yankees/Guardians matchup, you have two starters that haven't pitched since September. Hour 3 We talked Giants/Eagles and Boomer said this should be a tight game well into the fourth quarter. Gio thinks if the Giants can score 24 points, they can win the game. Gio is feeling a 24-20 Giants win. Boomer said the Eagles defense only has 2 turnovers, the lowest in the NFL. If the Giants can keep that going they can win this game. Jerry returns for an update and starts with the TBS TV call of the Judge HR that tied the game at 3. And then Stanton went back to back. We also heard the TBS call when Noel tied the game in the ninth with a HR and Fry homered for the win. We heard from Mets radio as Mookie Betts had a 2-run double and a HR. Carlos Mendoza talked about the Dodger lineup. The Broncos went into New Orleans and had no problem beating the Saints. Saquon Barkley returns to MetLife and Jerry wonders how he'll be received. In the final segment of the hour, it looks like Russell Wilson will start for the Steelers Sunday night against the Jets. Ben Roethlisberger doesn't like that idea and supposedly the guys in the locker room want Justin Fields as well. No matter where he goes, Russell Wilson doesn't seem to be popular in the locker room. Gio called him a douche and impossible to like. Gio said Aaron Rodgers is one hit away from getting hit and going back to Costa Rica. Especially against the Steelers defense. Hour 4 Glass half full: We need one more magical night from the Mets at Citi Field. David Peterson is on the mound tonight so we should be thinking positively. Glass half empty: the Mets can't score on the Dodgers pitching. Boomer said the Mets lost the confidence or whatever they had the last two games. Pitchers ...
Jerry Recco is in studio because a talk show host in Cleveland, Ken Carman, is annoying him on Twitter. He must listen to the Warm Up Show on his way to work in Cleveland and has an issue with a few of the things Jerry said about the Guardians. Jerry put him in his place. Jerry returns for an update and we hear the Cleveland radio call as Judge and Stanton went back to back. Cleveland came back with homers by Noel in the ninth and Fry in the 10th and we heard John Sterling on the call. We heard from Howie Rose as Ohtani hit a lead off HR last night in Queens. Mets players are staying positive as we heard some post game sound from Lindor and Alonso. The Broncos went into New Orleans and dominated the Saints. Evan Neal was asked about not playing as the Giants are now dealing with the injury to Andrew Thomas. Davante Adams said he's not feeling any pressure coming to the Jets. In the final segment of the hour, tonight's Mets game is at 5:08pm and Gio is imploring fans to get there early and get into it. The Mets have not given the fans anything to cheer for.

Hour 1 The Mets had a very disappointing loss last night, losing 8-0. They lost game one, 9-0. Boomer thinks they can come back tonight just like they did after the game one loss. Francisco Alvarez had a rough night in the field and at the plate, but Carlos Mendoza said he is sticking with him. Boomer said there is always tomorrow in baseball. But Gio added, ‘until there isn't'. The Mets have been resilient all year long. Jerry is here for his first update of the day and Gio was concerned when he heard Jerry say in the Warm Up Show that he thought the Dodgers would win in 6. Jerry starts with the sounds of the Mets losing to the Dodgers including the monster Ohtani HR into the upper deck. Carlos Mendoza talked about the fielding miscues in the second inning. Lindor said to stay the course, come back tonight and give everything you have. Daniel Jones talked about the injury to Andrew Thomas. Dexter Lawrence talked about playing against Saquon this weekend. Davante Adams and Aaron Rodgers are both happy they have each other again. In the final segment of the hour, Peter Schwartz can't pronounce Sabrina Ionescu's name, but claimed it was the biggest shot in NY basketball history. We also took calls from Mets fans on whether Alvarez should play or not. Hour 2 The Mets need a Winker day today. It's feeling like a Winker day. We need Winker in faces. We took calls from Mets fans, one who said there was a weird vibe at the game. He said it was flat. Gio thinks the second inning changed the vibe. Jerry returns for an update and starts with the sounds of Howie Rose and the poorly fielded second inning for the Mets. Luis Severino talked about the 2 that he had problems with in the inning. Lindor talked about not executing with people on base. David Ortiz talked about the cold weather in October vs the cold weather in April. In the final segment of the hour, a caller said the Mets have only had 1 big inning so far in this series with the Dodgers. Hour 3 Francisco Alvarez is mired in a slump. We need him to break out the way Pete Alonso did against the Braves and Phillies with the home runs. A caller thinks Mendoza is tempting fate with his lack of moves with Alvarez. Boomer thinks Mendoza is doing the right thing, he's being loyal to the guys who got him there. Boomer is not going to question him now against a great team like the Dodgers. Jerry returns for an update and has the sounds of Howie Rose as Max Muncy homered to make it 8-0. Carlos Mendoza talked about the Dodgers hitters not chasing. Jerry has audio of Evan Robers' Rico Brogna Mets podcast. In the final segment of the hour, we've seen the last of Mike Williams on the Jets. First Rodgers threw him under the bus, then the Jets got Davante Adams. Sabrina Ionescu had ‘the biggest shot in Liberty history' last night. Hour 4 Tonight is as much of a must win game without actually being a must win game for the Mets. The Yankees also play tonight and we still expect a sweep. A caller said the fans behind home plate have no energy and it's coming across that way on TV. We took a call from Minnesota about Jeff McNeil and it was a strange one. Boomer talked about the fragility of a locker room. Jerry returns for an update and starts with the sounds of Howie Rose as Ohtani hits a 3 run blast into the upper deck. Chris Russo talked about Tony Romo having no sense of history. Brian Daboll talked about the injury to Andrew Thomas. Aaron Rodgers was looking back at some old film on Davante Adams. The Moment of The Day: a nose spray and lozenges for ED. In the final segment of the show, a little bit of Knicks talk with the addition of Karl-Anthony Towns. Right now Davante Adams and Aaron Rodgers are living together right now.

E and T Short: The Giants lose their left tackle for the season
Phil Simms joins us in his weekly spot and we started with Aaron Rodgers throwing Mike Williams under the bus after their latest loss. Phil said Davante Adams will make a difference for sure. We talked about Russel Wilson and Justin Fields for this Sunday against the Jets. Andrew Thomas is out indefinitely for the Giants and Phil talked about how that will impact them. He said the Giants need to throw the ball down the field.
There's a guy who lives with a deer who moves the deer's mouth while the man sings and it has 65 million views. Gio finds himself watching this during the Yankees games because the Guardians are so non-competitive. We also talked about the injury to Andrew Thomas and how that will affect Daniel Jones and the Giants offense. Jerry returned for his final update of the day and started with the sounds of the Yankees beating the Guardians and the postgame sound. Gerrit Cole called his start, ‘alright'. Francisco Lindor is not concerned about the MVP race, he's trying to win a World Series. Haason Reddick has a new agent and they want to get a deal done with the Jets. Mike Tomlin still hasn't picked a starting QB this week against the Jets. Jerry Jones went on sports radio in Dallas and went at the hosts, saying he could get somebody else to ask the questions. The Moment of The Day: Gio as Woody Johnson talking about the Davante Adams trade. In the final segment of the show, Fireman Ed feels like he's being phased out by the Jets. He's no longer being shown on the jumbotron when the Jets score a TD. Maybe Aaron Rodgers doesn't like him.

We talked about Russel Wilson and Justin Fields for this Sunday against the Jets. Andrew Thomas is out indefinitely for the Giants and Phil talked about how that will impact them. He said the Giants need to throw the ball down the field. Jerry returns for an update and starts with the sounds of John Sterling as the Yankees beat the Guardians. Clay Holmes pitched well after coming in for Gerrit Cole. Joe Benigno reacted to another Jets loss with a classic Joe B rant. Woody Johnson was asked about the trade for Davante Adams. Aaron Rodgers reacted to the team getting Adams. Rodgers also reacted to people thinking he threw Mike Williams under the bus. Jerry Jones battled with Dallas Sports Radio and Jerry has the audio. Roger Goodell was asked about Tom Brady having an ownership stake in the Raiders. In the final segment of the hour, the Giants are in a tough spot with the injury to Andrew Thomas. Maybe Evan Neal can come in and play left tackle.
Hour 1 The Yankees beat the Guardians again and this is looking like a sweep situation. Gio said the cocky Yankee fans are coming back out. The Yankees had no problem even with Gerrit Cole not pitching great, and Jazz Chisholm not having any idea how to play third base or run the bases. Gio said this series feels like Mike Tyson vs Peter McNeeley. We also talked about Jeff McNeil being on the Mets roster and Brandon Nimmo not being 100%. Jerry is here for his first update of the day and starts with the sounds of Juan Soto being intentionally walked to load the bases for Aaron Judge. Judge did not hit a grand slam, just a sac fly. Verdugo called it a total team effort. Gerrit Cole assessed his performance as ‘alright'. Gio thinks they should start painting the World Series logos on the field at Yankee Stadium. Davante Adams popped into the Aaron Rodgers interview with Pat McAfee after being traded to the Jets. Rodgers was asked about his criticism of Mike Williams on the interception he threw. Mike Tomlin talked about the quarterback situation for this Sunday against the Jets. Jerry has the audio of Jerry Jones on sports radio in Dallas and they got into it. He made it seem like he could fire them. In the final segment of the hour, Bussin' With The Boys had Donald Trump on and the Washington Post wanted them to respond to a comment Trump made. Will Compton commented with a bodily noise (he farted). Hour 2 The Jets traded for Davante Adams yesterday and now Mike Williams is on the trading block. How much will Adams help the team? He and Rodgers definitely have chemistry together. Getting Adams shows Rodgers has a lot of control no matter what he says. He wants Saleh gone, he's gone. He wants Davante Adams, he's here. Hopefully Garret Wilson will embrace this. The Bills went out and got their own new WR in Amari Cooper. Jerry returns for an update and starts with Aaron Judge hitting a HR to center. The Yankees had a couple of base running errors which prompted John Sterling to say of the Yankees, they ‘run the bases like drunks'. Judge thought the ghosts of Monument Park pulled his HR out there. Jerry has audio of BT, who ‘hates' the Jets. He also called them, ‘ass backwards'. Jerry has audio from Woody Johnson saying ‘thinking is overrated'. Jerry Jones battled with sports radio in Dallas and we heard all the clips. The Cowboys are giving up 41 points a game. In the final segment of the hour, we talked about who's throwing out the first pitch for the remaining Mets/Dodgers games at Citi Field. We talked about Wade Boggs being a longtime Red Sox, goes to the Yankees and rides a police horse drinking a beer celebrating a World Series win. Hour 3 Phil Simms joins us in his weekly spot and we started with Aaron Rodgers throwing Mike Williams under the bus after their latest loss. Phil said Davante Adams will make a difference for sure. We talked about Russel Wilson and Justin Fields for this Sunday against the Jets. Andrew Thomas is out indefinitely for the Giants and Phil talked about how that will impact them.

Philadelphia Eagles head coach Nick Sirianni was much the talk of the National Football League this week after the win over the Cleveland Browns. Zach Berman will be at today's Sirianni press conference & will join the PHLY Eagles show. For the coach distractions, let's talk about some of the offensive concerns, how to improve them & is this actually a Kellen Moore offense? Former Eagles Super Bowl champion Vinny Curry joins the show to talk about the New York Giants & star left tackle Andrew Thomas missing the game & what it means for the defensive line. Plus, Tom Brady's ownership stake, can he really do his broadcasting job effectively? And the Eagles-Bengals game gets flexed out of primetime and back to a 1 o'clock start.

Recapping Bengals-Giants (3:30) and talking about what the Giants offense might look like if left tackle Andrew Thomas misses time. For the Bengals, should we value Joe Burrow and Ja'Marr Chase as the Top 5 players they currently are, or are there some concerning signs that can't be ignored? ... News and notes (15:00) and advanced stats (18:15) from Jacob as he talks about Tyrone Tracy Jr., Drake Maye, Bucky Irving and Christian Watson among others ... Four Big Topics: How to value the 49ers pass catchers (28:30); Why you should or shouldn't buy low on the Cowboys (38:30); What to make of the Bucs backfield (49:00); Players with the best schedules going forward and in the Fantasy playoffs (56:10) ...
