Jake Johnson is an off-the-cuff kinda guy, form-fit for this week's SNAFU when Ed and Jake meet a man who loved taking off his cuffs...and tunic, and trousers. He also happened to be one of the preeminent scientific minds during the French Revolution, and whose ill-fated trip across the Atlantic culminated in a tassle with Caribbean pirates and, potentially, a sunk American metric system.

What happens if we turn to James Baldwin, not just for the amazing quotations and excellent photos, but as a critical theorist? What if we read his nonfiction philosophically? What can Baldwin help us understand and do now? In So Unimaginable a Price: Baldwin and the Black Atlantic (Northwestern UP, 2025), John Drabinski takes up this project to give a sustained philosophical reading of Baldwin's nonfiction. Drabinski does so to understand the event of Baldwin's contributions in the context of the Black Atlantic. Baldwin was a thinker who looked to the United States, even when in exile. But he was also in the broader context of the mid-twentieth century Black Atlantic, of which he was surely aware but wrote little—what if we read for what was absent from Baldwin's texts?

Send a texthttps://www.bookclues.comTell a friend about CROSS WORD BOOK Podcast-the podcast for the serious readerThink misinformation started with the internet? We rewind five centuries to watch it form in real time. With historian Matthew Restall, we separate the historic Christopher Columbus from the patriotic mascot and the Italian American symbol, and we track how printing presses, royal propaganda, immigration waves, and modern media each remixed one navigator into many icons. The result isn't a takedown or a hagiography—it's a sharper lens for seeing how belief sneaks in where evidence thins.We start by reframing Columbus within the bustling Atlantic world of the late 1400s: thousands of mariners, evolving ship design, and trade winds honed by experience. The first voyage made headlines; the second changed history by hardwiring Europe and the Americas together. Along the way, we challenge the empty-ocean myth, revisit the Barcelona court moment, and follow the often-misunderstood roles of the Pinzón brothers. Restall explains why loaded terms like genocide demand precision and how catastrophic disease spread complicates tidy moral scripts without erasing responsibility.Then we open the myth factory. Columbus's own ambition—rebranding Cristoforo Colombo as Don Cristóbal Colón—set the stage for centuries of speculation about origins and loyalties. The “biography” credited to his son turns out to be a stitched, translated palimpsest that fueled later legends. We map the rise of Columbiana in 1892, link patriotic rituals like the Pledge of Allegiance to that wave, and show how statues and holidays became proxies for debates over identity, nationhood, and migration. By disentangling the historic sailor from the symbols built atop him, we model a way to trade faith history for evidence—and to read today's culture wars with cooler eyes.If you're ready to move beyond hot takes and into clear context—without losing the drama of discovery—press play.

What if the stories you inherited about who you're supposed to become—from your family, your industry, your own fears—are the very narratives holding you back? In this powerful episode of the Positive Leadership Podcast, I welcome Nicholas Thompson, CEO of The Atlantic, a visionary media executive who has led transformations at The New Yorker and WIRED, and an extraordinary marathoner who set an American record in the 50K at age 45. But Nick's story isn't just about professional success or athletic achievement. It's about the conscious choice to rewrite the narrative we inherit. Nick grew up watching his brilliant father—a Rhodes Scholar and academic star—whose life eventually “cracked up” due to alcoholism and personal struggles. Around Nick's 40th birthday, his father warned him: “All men's lives fall apart at this age.” That was the script Nick had inherited. A story of inevitable decline. But Nick refused to live that story. In our conversation, we explore:

In this episode of The Wright Report, Bryan connects the dots on how California's oil and gas crisis is driving up prices nationwide, threatening food supply chains, and weakening America's ability to fight a war in the Pacific. He then breaks down Governor Gavin Newsom's trip to Europe, where Democrats openly signal they are waiting out President Trump and promising a return to the old trans-Atlantic order, while Secretary of State Marco Rubio delivers a stark warning that Western civilization is in managed decline unless it rediscovers its shared mission. The episode closes with California's lawsuit to keep parents in the dark about their child's gender identity at school, followed by a chilling look at an AI agent that researched and publicly attacked a human after being rejected online.

Trump's February 5th National Prayer Breakfast speech exposed the complete moral collapse of evangelical Christianity in America. At an event founded in 1953 to bring leaders together in reconciliation, Trump delivered 75 minutes of grievances, insults, and praise for dictators. He called critics lunatics, labeled Representative Thomas Massie a jerk, praised El Salvador's authoritarian president Nayib Bukele and his cruel prison system, and claimed Democrats cheat while saying no person of faith could vote for them. The 3,500 attendees, mostly evangelical Christians, responded with standing ovations.Pete Wehner's Atlantic article examines how evangelicals abandoned Jesus's teachings for Trump's viciousness. Leaders like Robert Jeffress openly declared they wanted the meanest, toughest fighter rather than someone who follows biblical principles. Jerry Falwell Jr. called for street fighters instead of nice guys. Tony Perkins admitted evangelicals gave Trump a mulligan on affairs and hush money because they wanted someone willing to punch back. These Christians now see Trump's cruelty as virtue when directed at perceived enemies.The Prayer Breakfast highlighted Trump's authoritarian tendencies. He praised dictators, attacked political opponents, and claimed persecution of Christians before his presidency. Meanwhile, many evangelical pastors remain silent, afraid to speak prophetically against injustice. Some Christians are resisting, including Catholic leaders, mainline denominations, and individual pastors standing against cruelty and oppression. The question remains whether evangelical Christianity can recover its moral foundation or has permanently embraced authoritarianism over Christian ethics. Martin Luther King Jr.'s letter from Birmingham Jail reminds us the church must be the conscience of the state, not its servant.

This podcast episode provides a comprehensive overview of the current weather conditions impacting various regions across the United States. The primary focus centers on the significant winter weather hazards affecting the upper Midwest and California, where winter storm warnings have been issued due to heavy snowfall and strong winds. Additionally, concerns about flooding and debris flows in Southern California are addressed, particularly in areas near recent burn scars. Notably, localized boil water advisories are highlighted in several states, including Florida, Georgia, and Virginia, due to water main breaks. As we navigate these pressing weather-related issues, it remains imperative to stay informed through official alerts and advisories.Takeaways:* The National Hurricane Center has reported no active tropical cyclones in the Atlantic or Eastern Pacific regions.* Currently, winter weather dominates the narrative with significant impacts across the upper Midwest and West Coast.* California is facing substantial flood and winter weather challenges, particularly affecting Los Angeles and Ventura counties.* Florida is dealing with a water main break in Lehigh Acres, leading to a precautionary boil water advisory for residents.* Minnesota is currently under a winter storm warning due to adverse weather conditions that may hinder travel safety.* Virginia has issued a citywide boil water advisory in Danville, urging residents to utilize boiled or bottled water for consumption.Sources[NWS | https://forecast.weather.gov/wwamap/wwatxtget.php?cwa=usa&wwa=winter+weather+advisory][NWS | https://forecast.weather.gov/showsigwx.php?firewxzone=CAZ368&lat=33.9071&local_place1=Norwalk+CA&lon=-118.077&product1=Flash+Flood+Warning&warncounty=CAC037&warnzone=CAZ368][NWS | https://forecast.weather.gov/wwamap/wwatxtget.php?cwa=LOX&wwa=winter%2520storm%2520warning][FGUA | https://www.fgua.com/outages_notices/water-main-break-boil-water-advisory-317-main-road-2-16-2026/][City of Fayetteville, GA | https://www.fayetteville-ga.gov/CivicAlerts.aspx?AID=752][NWS | https://forecast.weather.gov/wwamap/wwatxtget.php?cwa=usa&wwa=winter+storm+warning][City of Medford | https://www.medfordoregon.gov/News-Articles/Severe-Weather-Shelter-Open-in-Medford-Feb.-16-17][WTAE | https://www.wtae.com/article/shaler-township-police-residents-water-main-break-boil-advisory/70386197][WSET | https://wset.com/news/local/danville-virginia-issues-citywide-boil-water-advisory-february-2026] This is a public episode.

It is astonishing to me that we went from the first powered flight of a few hundred feet in 1903 to attempting to fly the Atlantic in 1919. The Daily Mail had offered a prize of £10,000 to cross the Atlantic. The pilots called it the Big Hop. Nowadays we think nothing of it but back then they had open cockpits, primitive navigation tools, unreliable weather forecasting and many other problems. This was right on the edge of what was possible at the time. And not always on the right edge!We talked about:- the wonderful Hilda Hewlett, a pioneer of British aviation- how WW1 affected the competition (and the competitors)- Alcock and Brown and the runners up- how to keep calm (in your lounge suit) and carry on, even as death is racing to meet you.It is a wonderful story and David is wonderful storyteller!
The giant iceberg split off the Antarctic ice shelf in 2017. Named by scientists as A68a, it has since drifted towards South Georgia, a remote British island in the south Atlantic.这座巨大的冰山于2017年从南极冰架崩离。这座被科学家命名为A68a的冰山随后向南大西洋上的偏远英属岛屿南乔治亚岛漂去。Satellite images show it is still largely intact, some 150 kilometers long and 48 kilometers wide.卫星图像显示它基本完好无损,长约150公里,宽约48公里。It's on course to hit South Georgia in around 30 days. Its shallow depth means it could drift very close to the island.它将在约30天后抵达南乔治亚岛。吃水浅意味着它可能会非常靠近岛屿漂流。This video from the organization Penguins International shows the island's huge penguin colonies.这段来自国际企鹅组织的视频展示了岛上庞大的企鹅群落。Key feeding grounds for penguins and seals could be blocked off, says scientist Geraint Tarling of the British Antarctic Survey.英国南极调查局的科学家杰兰特·塔林指出,企鹅与海豹的关键觅食区域可能遭到阻断。That means they have to go a lot further, they need to go around the iceberg, or to actually go further to find sources of food.这意味着它们必须走得更远。它们需要绕过冰山,或者真的要走得更远才能找到食物来源。And that time is quite critical at this particular period of their life cycle.在它们生命周期的这个特定时期,这段时间相当关键。They have to get back to their chicks and pups in short amounts of time so that they don't starve in the interim.它们必须在短时间内回到幼崽身边,以免它们在此期间挨饿。The iceberg could stick around for a decade and change the entire ecosystem.这座冰山可能会停留十年之久,并改变整个生态系统。These are globally significant populations of these species. If these species fail in this particular area, then the numbers globally are going to go down quite dramatically.这些物种的种群数量在全球范围内具有重要意义。如果这些物种在这一特定领域灭绝, 那么全球的数量将会大幅下降。Iceberg carving in Antarctica is a natural process but it's changing with global warming, says Tarling.塔林说,南极洲的冰山崩解是一种自然过程,但这一现象正随着全球变暖而发生变化。The rate at which this is happening is increasing. And so, this might become more of a usual thing into the future.这种情况发生的速度正在加快。因此,在未来这可能变得更加常见。The iceberg could also damage South Georgia's valuable fishing industry.冰山还可能破坏南乔治亚州宝贵的渔业。The hope is that changing weather patterns could yet divert it into the open ocean. 人们希望,不断变化的天气模式或许能将这座冰山引向开阔海域。

“When do we get a whack at those Germans?” This is the story of America's entry into the European Theater. After Pearl Harbor, American foot soldiers and generals alike are eager to get in on the action in Europe, but first, they have to cross the embattled Atlantic—easier said than done with German U-boats on the prowl, sinking both military and merchant vessels in what they call an “American turkey shoot.” After stubborn U.S. Navy Admiral Ernest King finally adopts a workable convoy system, the boys are on their way to the UK, but it's their next destination that's really hotly debated. U.S. Chief of Staff George C. Marshall advocates for a direct assault on France in 1942, (a plan supported by a desperate Stalin), but Churchill and co. favor a Mediterranean approach, coming up through the “soft underbelly” of Europe and avoiding turning the English Channel into “a river of blood.” And yet, whatever the high command decides, newly trained American troops will soon arrive in Ireland under the command of Dwight D. “Ike” Eisenhower, an organizationally brilliant and formerly frustrated desk jockey, now commander of all U.S. forces in Europe. ____ Connect with us on HTDSpodcast.com and go deep into episode bibliographies and book recommendations join discussions in our Facebook community get news and discounts from The HTDS Gazette come see a live show get HTDS merch or become an HTDS premium member for bonus episodes and other perks.

Moon comes back from Florida glowing like a man who just discovered winter doesn't have to hurt, and suddenly we're debating snowbird life, Boca Raton condos, and whether Missouri should legally relocate to Destin for spring break. This is your favorite daily comedy show, and today we are aggressively pro-sunlight.We break down Missouri's top spring break destinations (Redneck Riviera confirmed), argue Atlantic vs Gulf Coast beaches like it's a custody hearing, and discuss why Lake Havasu sounds like a Girls Gone Wild fever dream from 2003.Then Valentine's Day stories roll in.Lern takes Tim to the Endangered Wolf Center for an adults-only “VAL” event that included chocolate-covered strawberries and a deeply educational look at wolf mating habits. Yes, there was footage. Yes, Rizz immediately questioned whether the wolves were even real. It's romance, nature-style.Rafe attempts ice skating for the first time in his adult life and learns that there is, in fact, an expiration date for acquiring certain athletic skills. Buckets were stacked. Pride was tested. Heads were lightly bonked. Nobody tore an ACL — which honestly makes this episode a success.Scott celebrates Valentine's with sushi and F1 (bold move showing Brad Pitt on the most romantic night of the year), while Rizz wages war against a florist who tried to invoke “fine print” on a hotel flower delivery. An elite Yelp energy moment if we've ever seen one.We also dive into:– Mardi Gras arrest numbers in Soulard (surprisingly low)– The ethics of alleyway vs. porta potty decision-making– Watching Django Unchained with your teenage son and answering “Was this problematic?”– Why certain movies hit different when you're not 28 anymore– And whether we have officially aged out of learning new sportsIt's reflective. It's ridiculous. It's Midwest sarcasm colliding with Florida optimism. And it's another chaotic installment of your favorite daily comedy show.If you're here for a funny podcast that blends pop culture commentary, real-life fails, St. Louis energy, and Rizz and the gang arguing about beach sand clarity — welcome back to the daily comedy show that refuses to grow up (even if our knees say otherwise).Follow The Rizzuto Show → https://linktr.ee/rizzshow for more from your favorite daily comedy show.Connect with The Rizzuto Show Comedy Podcast online → https://1057thepoint.com/RizzShowHear The Rizz Show daily on the radio at 105.7 The Point | Hubbard Radio in St. Louis, MO.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

The episode opens with Diana and Nicole catching up on their latest work, focusing on testing AI models for accuracy in handwritten-text transcription tasks. The hosts then discuss the novel TransAtlantic by Irish author Colum McCann and what family historians can learn from its structure to write better family narratives. Diana explains that the novel views the immigration story from the Irish perspective, following the fictional character Lily Duggan and three subsequent generations, with the prose connecting each fictional character to a true story and an actual historical figure. Nicole shares the first historical snapshot, covering Lily Duggan's 1845 meeting with the formerly enslaved abolitionist Frederick Douglass in Ireland. She then details the 1919 Atlantic crossing of Lily's daughter Emily and granddaughter Lottie, where they witness the first non-stop transatlantic flight by aviators Alcock and Brown. Diana picks up the thread by discussing Lottie's later meeting with US Senator George Mitchell during his 1998 peace brokering visit to Northern Ireland, and the final chapter, where Lily's great-granddaughter, Hannah, possesses the unopened letter that connects all the women. Listeners learn three key ideas for writing their own family stories: use a focal object passed down through generations, consider historical characters an ancestor may have encountered, and research important historical events in the time and place their ancestors lived to understand how those events may have impacted them.

Scott Kaufman is a psychologist, coach, professor, keynote speaker, and best-selling author. He is a professor of psychology at Columbia University and director of the Center for Human Potential. He also hosts The Psychology Podcast which has received over 30 million downloads and is widely considered among the top psychology podcasts in the world. Scott's writing has appeared in The Atlantic, Scientific American, Psychology Today, and Harvard Business Review, and he is the author and editor of 11 books. In his most recent book Rise Above: Overcome a Victim Mindset, Empower Yourself, and Realize Your Full Potential, he explores the limiting beliefs and widespread anxiety that puts people in boxes, lowers expectations, and holds them back. In addition to teaching at Columbia, Scott has also been a professor at the University of Pennsylvania and NYU. Scott received a B.S. in psychology and human computer interaction from Carnegie Mellon, an M. Phil in experimental psychology from the University of Cambridge under a Gates Cambridge Scholarship, and a Ph.D. in cognitive psychology from Yale University. In this episode we discuss the following: Scott's definition of intelligence: the dynamic interplay of engagement and abilities in the pursuit of goals. When we give people a chance to go deep into an area that they love, over a long period of time, they can develop expertise and brain structures that can override some of our IQ limitations. The thing that surprised Scott most as he researched intelligence was just how predictive IQ is. Scott thought he was going to be on a vendetta against IQ but ended up falling in love with the science of IQ, intelligence, and the brain. Differences in ability are both natural and valuable, and recognizing them—rather than denying them—creates better paths for growth and contribution. Unlocking our potential requires intellectual honesty, patience, and environments that allow passion and skill to reinforce one another over time.

Energy Vista: A Podcast on Energy Issues, Professional and Personal Trajectories
In this special solo episode recorded on January 21, 2026, Leslie Palti-Guzman shares what truly keeps her up at night.She begins as a parent, reflecting on how history is taught, the disappearance of classical foundations, and the transformation of information consumption in the digital age.Then she pivots to her professional lens at the intersection of energy, trade, and geopolitics.Key themes include:• Why the US energy bonanza remains a strategic asset• The risks of undermining transatlantic energy relations• Europe's record LNG dependence on the US in 2025• Atlantic basin energy interdependence• What are the limits of geoeconomic leverageLeslie argues for data over rhetoric, for strong transatlantic alliances, and for diplomatic use of America's energy power.A reflective and strategic episode about markets, alliances, and energy leadership.
If your team can't move without you, you don't have leadership; you have dependence. Kendall Berg sits down with Leah Marone to unpack the Support, Don't Solve leadership model. This is the shift that stops constant interruption. It also builds real ownership. Leah explains why leaders often jump in too quickly, how this creates a dependency loop, and what to do instead. You will hear the first move that changes everything: validation first. Then questions. Then space. This episode is for the manager who is always on call. It is also for the high performer who wants to advance without carrying the whole team. You will walk away with a clear reframe, simple boundaries that still feel human, and language you can use the next time someone brings you a problem. In this episode, we discuss: Why does my team rely on me for every decision at work? How do I stop being the problem solver without sounding cold? What does "support, don't solve" look like in real leadership conversations? How do I set boundaries at work while still leading with empathy? What should I say first when someone brings me a problem? What's one "corporate game" rule you've learned the hard way?

On a dark Atlantic night in 1873, Horatio Spafford lost all four of his daughters, and from that unimaginable grief he wrote, “It is well with my soul.” This law homily on the first commandment presses past surface obedience and asks what we truly cannot imagine losing, exposing the small gods we quietly trust. When everything else sinks, only the Lord Himself is a portion that cannot be taken away.

You know what they say about records? They’re made to be broken. Well, off the coast of the Virginian Province in China, a new machine is spinning China three. Gorges and Goldwin have connected the world’s first 20 megawatt offshore wind turbine to the electrical grid. 20 megawatts from a single turbine. It’s blade stretched 147 meters long. That’s nearly 500 feet. The rotor sweeps an area equal to about 10 football fields. The hub sits 174 meters above the waves, a 58 story building floating its sea. This one wind [00:01:00] turbine will power 44,000 homes. And here’s what makes it interesting. This is the same wind farm where the world’s first 16 megawatt turbine went in. That record lasted barely two years. Meanwhile, Chinese turbine exports hit a record, 8 million kilowatts in 2025, a 50% from the year before. Chinese companies now operate in more than 60 countries. Uh. Across the Atlantic, a different kind of milestone. Nova Scotia has quietly become Canada’s leader in corporate clean energy deals while Alberta fumbled through policy moratoriums, the maritime province signed agreements that drew renewable investment northward The $60 billion Wind West project aims to unlock 62 gigawatts of offshore capacity. That’s a quarter of Canada’s total energy needs. Premier, Tim Houston traveled to New York this past month for the [00:02:00] International Partnering Forum. He signed a deal with Massachusetts to collaborate on offshore wind development . Lisa Engler from the Massachusetts Clean Energy Center put it simply worked together lower costs, build the Atlantic Wind Industry. Nova Scotia’s first offshore lease auction comes later this year. And in Scotland, great British energy, announced its permanent headquarters. Location. Marshall Square. In Aberdeen, CEO, Dan McGrail called Aberdeen the perfect home for Britain’s publicly owned energy company. Thousands of engineers and technicians already call the city home Energy Minister Michael Shanks noted that Aberdeen has powered Britain for decades. First with oil and gas. Now with clean energy and on the American Prairie, South Dakota, regulators approved the state’s largest wind farm. Philip Wind Partners, a subsidiary of Chicago based Invenergy will build [00:03:00] 87 turbines across 110 square miles of private land north of Phillip. The price tag $750 million. The capacity. 333 megawatts enough to power hundreds of thousands of homes and in laboratories across Europe. Researchers announced a breakthrough that could solve when energy’s most stubborn problem. What happens when turbine blades were out The Oleum project has produced the first bal salt fiber reinforced vier composite laminate through a new infusion technique in plain English. Its recyclable blades made from volcanic rock fiber. The goal blades that last 20% longer repair 40% faster and costs 15% less over the lifetime. So there you have it from China’s colossal machines to Nova Scotia’s Bold Ambitions from [00:04:00] Aberdeen’s new energy company to South Dakota’s Prairie Wind Farm from European laboratories working on the recycling puzzle. The wind industry just keeps moving forward, and that’s a state of the wind industry on the 16th of February. 2026. Join us tomorrow for the Uptime Wind Energy Podcast.
In this episode, I sit down with Scott Butler, a serving UK firefighter who has quietly built a life around choosing difficult things on purpose. Scott shares the pivotal moment in 2006 when joining the fire service forced him to grow fast, take responsibility, and stop making excuses. That turning point shaped not just his career, but his identity, and set him on a path where challenge became a way of understanding himself rather than something to avoid.Our conversation goes far beyond adventure headlines. We talk about ultra-distance challenges, rowing the Atlantic, desert races, long lonely days where quitting would make complete sense, and the mindset required to keep moving anyway. Along the way, we explore fear, ageing, doubt, discipline, charity, and why firefighters often feel most at home in uncomfortable places. There is also a surprisingly important discussion about bum butter, because it turns out the right anti-chafing cream can overcome all kinds of horrific challenges. This is a grounded, honest, and funny conversation about resilience, agency, and backing yourself without needing applause.Find Scott HEREAccess all episodes, documents, GIVEAWAYS & debriefs HEREPodcast Apparel, Hoodies, Flags, Mugs HERE our partners supporting this episode.GORE-TEX Professional ClothingFIRST TACTICAL- tactical gear for elite operatorsMSA The Safety CompanyJAFCOIDEXFIRE & EVACUATION SERVICE LTD Send a textSupport the show***The views expressed in this episode are those of the individual speakers.

We're joined by our good friend, Mark Leibovich from The Atlantic, to go through a laundry list of current Trump controversies, including his immigration enforcement, blatant corruption, and focus on retribution. Not to mention, Attorney General Pam Bondi's complete meltdown over the Epstein files in Congress this week. We also look at how Trump's new management style involves humiliation rather than firing. So far, DHS Secretary Kristi Noem has managed to keep her job, but Mark explains how Trump still made her pay. Plus, we look at Mark's most recent piece about the Democratic Party and its future. With a large majority of the party unhappy with Democratic leadership, how can the party rally to be successful in the midterms and find the right candidate to take back the Presidency in 2028?READ Mark's work in The Atlantic: https://www.theatlantic.com/author/mark-leibovich/SUPPORT THE PODCAST BY VISITING OUR SPONSORS:Save money on your wireless bill with Mint Mobile.

Only in royal life.King Charles reportedly enlisted armed protection officers using telescopic sights to help him spot salmon while fly fishing in Ireland. Security officers positioned in trees allegedly identified fish through rifle lenses and relayed directions via earpiece as the King cast his line. Despite the high-tech assist, experts insist Charles remains an accomplished traditional angler.Princess Anne, meanwhile, made her first ever personal appearance on social media, posting a direct-to-camera Instagram message congratulating Team GB's Winter Olympians. The moment carried extra weight given Anne herself competed at the 1976 Montreal Games.Across the Atlantic, a property video of Harry and Meghan's roughly $29 million California mansion — complete with nine bedrooms and sixteen bathrooms — sparked online jokes about the toilet count. Property experts say such layouts are standard for sprawling U.S. estates.Elsewhere, an alleged former palace staffer surfaced on Reddit claiming King Charles' famously meticulous routines are real and accusing Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor of being “beyond rude” to staff — though the claims remain unverified.And if you're job hunting, Buckingham Palace is hiring a live-in kitchen porter, no experience required. Sandringham is also seeking a chef. Staff there, however, have reportedly been told they do not have to work for Andrew if they feel uncomfortable.Palace Intrigue is your daily royal family podcast, diving deep into the modern-day drama, power struggles, and scandals shaping the future of the monarchy."Crown and Controversy: Norway" is covering the trial of Marius Borg Høiby as the Norwegian Royal Family is faced with multiple scandals of their own.Check out "Palace Intrigue Presents: King WIlliam" here.
"Two years from now, all white-collar jobs may be gone." — Dario Amodei (via Keith Teare)Keith Teare leads this week's tech roundup with a video he made on Google's Veo: one glass half-full of water, another half-full of spiders. It's a metaphor for the AI moment. The water represents the tools released in the past two weeks—Anthropic's Claude 4.6, OpenAI's CodeX 5.3—which Keith calls "beyond belief." The spiders represent the fear, which he acknowledges is not irrational. But maybe spiders are the wrong metaphor. Maybe we're the frogs being slowly boiled, not noticing the temperature rise until it's too late.The trigger was Matt Schumer's viral essay "Something Big is Happening," which got 50 million views by telling engineers to become AI experts immediately or become irrelevant. Keith tested the thesis: he built venturebets.io, a prediction market, in a single day. He automated That Was The Week so completely that his weekly workflow dropped from six hours to under one. But then Dario Amodei and Satya Nadella both said the quiet part loud: in two years, there may be no white-collar jobs left. Keith's response? The glass doesn't contain jobs—it contains the future of life. And he'd rather have time to make videos of spiders crawling out of glasses than spend six hours curating links. The rest of us may not have the luxury of choosing. About the GuestKeith Teare is a serial entrepreneur and investor, founder of SignalRank, and author of the newsletter That Was The Week. He co-hosts the weekly tech roundup on Keen On America.ReferencesEssays discussed:● Matt Schumer's "Something Big is Happening" went viral with 50 million views, arguing that engineers must become AI experts immediately or face obsolescence.● Noah Smith published two essays: "The Fall of the Nerds" and "You Are No Longer the Smartest Type of Thing on Earth," arguing that humanity's destiny is now mostly out of our own hands.● Josh Tyrangiel wrote "America Isn't Ready for What AI Will Do to Jobs" in The Atlantic.● The Financial Times published "Anthropic's Breakout Moment" on the company's enterprise momentum.Tools and companies mentioned:● Claude 4.6 from Anthropic and CodeX 5.3 from OpenAI represent a "step change" in agentic AI—you give tasks, not prompts, and sub-agents complete them autonomously.● Google Veo is Google's video generation tool, which Keith used to create the glass-half-full-of-spiders metaphor.● Polymarket and Kalshi are prediction markets that Keith's new venturebets.io aims to match in quality.People mentioned:● Dario Amodei, CEO of Anthropic, predicted that white-collar jobs may be gone in two years.● Satya Nadella, CEO of Microsoft, echoed Amodei's prediction about the end of white-collar work.About Keen On AmericaNobody asks more awkward questions than the Anglo-American writer and filmmaker Andrew Keen.

ArTEEtude. West Cork´s first Art, Fashion & Design Podcast by Detlef Schlich.
Hollywood came to West Cork. Or at least Facebook said so. A film crew appears in Timoleague. The internet goes feral. Sightings multiply. Myth gains WiFi.Meanwhile, I'm on a pier wall waiting for sourdough to cool — because crust matters.A man with sunglasses sits beside me.Good posture. Slightly out of place.Very aware of the smell of bread.His stomach betrays him.I tear the loaf too early.“Breaking bad,” I mutter.He lifts the sunglasses.“Better breaking bad than breaking Brad.”And just like that —The most West Cork initiation ritual ever conceived begins.Yes. That Brad.What follows is a six-episode transformation experiment:• Butter churn initiation• Atlantic wind deconstruction• Céilí ego dissolution• Mart confusion• SuperValu democracy• And finally… the crowning of the Mayor of BallydehobEverything recorded.Nothing audible.Is this celebrity satire?Community ritual?Or just warm bread collapsing under its own mythology?The episode closes with a brand new Los Inorgánicos track: “Breaking Brad.”Because sometimes West Cork doesn't chase myth.It absorbs it.Detlef Schlich is a rock musician, podcaster, visual artist, filmmaker, ritual designer, and media archaeologist based in West Cork. He is recognised for his seminal work, including a scholarly examination of the intersections between shamanism, art, and digital culture, and his acclaimed video installation, Transodin's Tragedy. He primarily works in performance, photography, painting, sound, installations, and film. In his work, he reflects on the human condition and uses the digital shaman's methodology as an alter ego to create artwork. His media archaeology is a conceptual and practical exercise in uncovering the unique aesthetic, cultural, and political aspects of media in culture.WEBSITE LINKS WAW Official YouTube Channelhttps://www.youtube.com/@WAWBand"The Niles Bittersweet Song" WAW BandcampSilent NightIn a world shadowed by conflict and unrest, we, Dirk Schlömer & Detlef Schlich, felt compelled to reinterpret 'Silent Night' to reflect the complexities and contradictions of modern life.https://studiomuskau.bandcamp.com/track/silent-nightWild Atlantic WayThis results from a trip to West Cork, Ireland, where the beautiful Coastal "Wild Atlantic Way" reaches along the whole west coast!https://studiomuskau.bandcamp.com/track/wild-atlantic-wayYOU TUBE*Silent Night Reimagined* A Multilayered Avant-Garde Journey by WAW aka Dirk Schlömer & Detlef Schlichhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dAbytLSfgCwDetlef SchlichInstagramDetlef Schlich ArTEEtude I love West Cork Artists FacebookDetlef Schlich I love West Cork Artists Group ArTEEtudeYouTube Channelsvisual PodcastArTEEtudeCute Alien TV official WebsiteArTEEtude Detlef Schlich Det Design Tribal Loop Download here for free Detlef Schlich´s Essay about the Cause and Effect of Shamanism, Art and Digital Culturehttps://www.researchgate.net/publication/303749640_Shamanism_Art_and_Digital_Culture_Cause_and_EffectSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/arteetude-a-podcast-with-artists-by-detlef-schlich/donations

How Suffolk Constabulary secured justice decades later — and what this case reveals about sex worker safety, family liaison, evidence-led policing, and whistleblowers.In this episode of Crime Time Inc., Simon and Tom examine Steve Wright — widely known as the “Suffolk Strangler” (also referred to as the “Ipswich Ripper”) — and the cold case breakthrough that linked him to the 1999 abduction and murder of 17-year-old Victoria Hall.We unpack what made Suffolk Constabulary's investigation stand out, how advances in forensic science can reopen “closed” history, and why long-term family liaison support can matter for decades, not days.Simon and Tom also explore the realities of policing vulnerable communities, the risks faced by sex workers working on the street, and how systems and legislation can unintentionally increase danger rather than reduce it.The conversation broadens into “policing politics” — when forces get pulled into high-stakes public controversies — and finishes on a practical, real-world discussion of whistleblowers: how to separate genuine warnings from grievance, and why leadership must follow the evidence either way.Listener note: This episode discusses murder and violence against women.Chapters / Timestamps00:00 Crime Time Inc. intro00:44 A pause from Zodiac: back to the Suffolk Strangler case02:42 Suffolk Constabulary's investigation & long-term family liaison05:18 Broadchurch and what not to do as a family liaison officer07:22 Steve Wright, victims' families, and the 1999 case08:39 Pattern, geography, and “spree” timelines10:32 Could there be other victims?

John welcomes acclaimed sportswriter and bestselling author Sally Jenkins to discuss the twin mega-stories this week where politics, culture, and elite athletics invariably come crashing together: the Super Bowl and Winter Olympics.

In his epic cover story for The Atlantic this month, staff writer Josh Tyrangiel spoke to dozens of economists, workers, tech CEOs, and AI experts about the danger that artificial intelligence might pose to the labor force. Is AI developing the capacity to automate and even replace millions of white-collar jobs, as many technologists and some economists predict? Or is this a normal technology that, like previous generations of technology, will have a much slower effect on the workforce? We cover several scenarios before asking: Why does it seem like nobody in politics is paying close enough attention to this story?
