The host, who knows both men and calls them smart and well-intentioned, explicitly urges viewers not to pick a side and dismiss the other as stupid, but to find the one factual disagreement worth reasoning from. His own position leans hard toward innovation: drawing on Matt Ridley's The Rational Optimist, he argues that 80,000 years of human progress make "it all ends now" an irrational bet, that we've innovated our way out of every prior crisis, and that de-growth—especially any talk of reducing world population—would trigger economic collapse that causes far more suffering than the problem it aims to solve. He respects Steve Keen's economic mind but argues Keen has essentially "given up," wishing we'd listened to engineers 50 years ago rather than charting a path forward now. He reframes the climate fight around tradeoffs the doom narrative ignores: citing Bjørn Lomborg's "it's real but overstated, and the solutions can be worse than the disease" framing, the roughly 140,000-plus annual heat deaths that air conditioning could prevent, and Jordan Peterson's warning about sacrificing today's actual poor for tomorrow's hypothetical poor. The conversation ranges across the East-vs-West Germany innovation contrast, a Peter Diamandis-style geoengineering thought experiment, why "politics is downstream of culture," and the host's more contested claim that climate panic often masks a desire for control and resentment—before ending on a speculative, openly-unsupported musing about the psychology behind who pushes it. A wide-ranging argument for optimism, first-principles thinking, and refusing to let "we're doomed" become the whole story.The team breaks down Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent's latest move to tame rising long-term bond rates—and why the bond market is likely to keep testing him. After Bessent doubled buybacks from $2B to $4B per round (which briefly knocked yields down before they rebounded past where they started), two off-the-record Treasury officials leaked to CNBC that the Treasury General Account—the government's roughly $1-trillion checking account at the Fed—could be tapped to buy bonds en masse. The host walks through why that's a bigger deal than expected: using cash to retire long-duration bonds without issuing new supply makes the debt "evaporate," and the market has, at least for now, believed the rumor enough to push the 30-year and 10-year yields down. But he's clear about the catch: the TGA isn't a magic war chest—every dollar in it was borrowed via prior auctions, so spending it down just defers the problem and eventually requires selling more debt, pressuring the curve again. He frames the backdrop honestly: $40 trillion in debt, ~123% debt-to-GDP, climbing interest costs, Japan (the largest buyer of US debt) in trouble, China dumping Treasuries while hoarding gold, and gold overtaking the dollar as the top central-bank reserve asset. His throughline is that there's no silver bullet, only tradeoffs, and the only real fix is growing the real economy—rising middle-class wages adjusted for inflation, GDP moving from ~1.2% toward 3–4%—rather than financial engineering. Absent that, he lays out the grim menu every over-indebted empire faces: austerity, default, or inflating the currency to shrink the debt (which quietly impoverishes everyone paid or saving in dollars), and warns that another Covid-scale inflation spike without real growth is how you get to "pitchforks." The conversation closes on a lengthy, contested tangent about immigration incentive structures, the Nordic model, and social trust—with the host explicitly noting the Nordic countries themselves say they aren't socialist. A dense, sobering economics breakdown.The team breaks down the escalating US-Canada trade war after Canada walked away from a deal that would have sharply lowered tariffs on several key Canadian industries. The host argues Canada is making a serious economic miscalculation—laying out the dependency math: roughly 78% of Canadian exports rely on US consumer markets, and exports make up about 33% of Canada's GDP, versus Canada representing only around 13% of US imports and a small slice of US GDP. In his read, that asymmetry means Canada has far more to lose, and pivoting toward China—geographically distant and, as he notes, a non-market economy—is a poor substitute. He digs into what actually broke the deal per PM Mark Carney: autos, French-language and cultural protections, and, most importantly, a US demand to restrict Canada's ability to sign independent trade deals with other countries (read: China), pointing to Canada's stated goal of a 50% export increase to China by 2030, Carney's January Beijing visit, and a flurry of mutual tariff cuts (including slashing Canada's 100% EV tariff to ~6%) as evidence of a rapidly warming relationship. But the host is pointedly two-sided: he says the US had understandable strategic reasons to push for guarantees, while blasting Trump's "51st state" rhetoric and bullying public posture as counterproductive—using it as a lesson he teaches entrepreneurs about always showing the other side how a deal is a win for them, and the human psychology of how people resist being forced into even things that serve their interests. He walks through the granular US demands (auto assembly, procurement, energy allocation, language laws) and their second-order effects, and closes on a contested hypothesis that Canada may be more ideologically aligned with China than the US. A dense, numbers-driven, deliberately even-handed breakdown of leverage, strategy, and a deal gone sideways.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Can Sherlock Holmes follow the trail of a culprit 28 hours ahead of him? Arthur Conan Doyle, today on The Classic Tales Podcast.   Welcome to The Classic Tales Podcast, where an audiobook approach delivers an immersive experience in classic literature. I'm your host BJ Harrison.  I'm glad you could join us.   Unlimited everything. With a monthly donation of $9.99 or more, that's what you get. Unlimited access to everything I've recorded for the last 19 years. These are the same titles found on Audible, Spotify, and elsewhere. They already have thousands of five-star ratings. Many have won awards. And you can download all you want. No limits.   And it all directly supports the show. The guy who does all the work. That'd be me.   Go to classictalesaudiobooks.com today and choose the best way to support the show. Thank you so much.     Okay, so we have a little housekeeping to attend to. First of all, if you'd like to see a live recording of Jeeves and the Dog MacIntosh, by P.G. Wodehouse, you can. I'll be performing The Classic Tales Podcast live at the FanX Convention (formerly Salt Lake ComicCon). I'll also be one of four narrators performing The Call of Cthulhu live, as well as Asleep in Armageddon, by Ray Bradbury. So if you're in the area, and are planning on attending, please come and say hi.   There's also a super fun interview I had with Heather Ordover from CraftLit, the annotated audiobook podcast, that you can check out. Her podcast turns 20 this year, and since many of her listeners have heard my work, since she's used some of my recordings in her show, she was gracious enough to have a chat with me. If you wonder why I do this, or what my story is, it's a great snapshot of lil' ol' me. A link to the interview can be found in the show notes.   Also, today we have an instance of an author using racism as a cheap device to create a villain. Yeah, it's pretty gross. For the record, any time you say, "everyone who looks like this, or comes from here, or thinks like this – they're all the same", yeah, that's a problem. Unfortunately, many Victorian authors use this and various forms of racism as a cheap shortcut. Just wanted to give you a heads up.     And now, The Sign of the Four, Part 3 of 5, by Arthur Conan Doyle   Follow this link to get The Audiobook Library Card for a special price of $9.99/month   Follow this link to hear the interview with BJ and Heather Ordover from CraftLit   Follow this link and get Multiple Licenses for The Audiobook Library Card   Follow this link and watch the new video walkthrough using PocketBook.       Follow this link to subscribe to our YouTube Channel:       Follow this link to subscribe to the Arsène Lupin Podcast:     Follow this link to follow us on Instagram:     Follow this link to follow us on Facebook:

AI may transform how professional services firms deliver technical work, but it cannot replace the human qualities that build trust. In this episode, BJ welcomes back Jim Rogers, founder of Impellor Group and author of Becoming a Seller-Doer, to explore why client leadership, judgment, and empathy will become even more valuable as AI reshapes the AEC industry. Jim outlines the progression from transactional provider to embedded advisor, explains the difference between attentive, active, and empathetic listening, and shares ways emerging leaders can develop client-facing skills. They also discuss the risks of relying on AI, the leadership gap created as senior principals retire, and why paraphrasing is one of the simplest ways to prevent costly miscommunication. Tune in to discover how strengthening your human skills can protect your career, build relationships, and help you become the trusted advisor clients call first!Key Points From This Episode:Jim's approach to progressing from a transactional provider to an embedded advisor.Discover what empathy looks like in professional settings and leadership roles.The difference between attentive, active, and empathetic listening.Find out how empathetic listening helps people feel understood and strengthens trust.Explore why project management is about people, not only schedules and metrics.Learn how young professionals can build trusted-advisor skills through content curation.Uncover the risk that AI workflows pose and why experience and context matter.Understand how leaders adapt their tactics to the client, team, culture, and situation.The client-leadership gap and why empathy and relationship-building create career security.Try a practical listening exercise: paraphrase what someone said in your own words.Quotes:“So much of leadership is about human problems.” — BJ Kraemer [0:07:58]“One of the foundations [of leadership] is caring about somebody else's success.” — Jim Rogers [0:13:40]“Everybody needs more client leadership.” — Jim Rogers [0:22:24]“We're taught to write, we're taught to read, [and] we're taught to speak [but] nobody's ever taught to listen.” — Jim Rogers [0:27:56]Links Mentioned in Today's Episode:Jim Rogers on LinkedInImpellor GroupBecoming a Seller-DoerSeller-Doer AcademyNever Eat AloneProject Management InstituteLeadership Blueprints PodcastLeadership Blueprints Podcast on YouTubeMCFAMCFA CareersBJ Kraemer on LinkedIn

“HEY! YOU CAN'T FISH HERE!”Okay… but can you?Episode 337 of Jigs & Bigs dives into one of those situations almost every angler will eventually encounter: you're fishing water you believe you have every legal right to be on, and a property or dock owner tells you otherwise.This week's Just the Tip is all about knowing before you go.Public water vs. private property. Private docks. Legal access. Navigable water. Fishing from a boat vs. wading vs. standing on the bank. Sportsman's rights and interference laws. And what happens when somebody hangs a NO FISHING sign somewhere that might not actually give them the authority to tell you not to fish?The complicated answer?It depends.We look at examples from around the country to demonstrate just how dramatically access and angler-protection laws can differ—and why something Bobby said on a podcast or some jabroni confidently posted on Facebook should never replace doing your own homework.And if a confrontation does happen?Knowing your rights doesn't mean you have to exercise them at maximum volume.We talk de-escalation, respecting property owners, knowing when to walk away, and even when it might make sense to call the game warden yourself.Just remember:Calling the warden isn't calling in reinforcements. You're calling in a referee—and the referee can throw a flag on YOU.Then on Broke on the Boat, we're talking CHEAP INSURANCE—the inexpensive purchases and simple maintenance that can keep a tiny problem from becoming an expensive one.Because spending twelve bucks to protect a $300 rod isn't expensive.Replacing the $300 rod because you wouldn't spend twelve bucks?Now you're Broke on the Boat.Plus Joe and Bobby get into the usual fishing stories, bullshit, listener interaction and everything else that makes J&B… J&B.

In this bonus After Dark episode, David, Devindra, and Jeff are joined by BJ Colangelo and Peter Sciretta to pay off the debts of last year's Summer Movie Wager.

Die Wall Street steuert nach dem Rückschlag vom Donnerstag auf eine Erholung zu. Die Futures auf den S&P 500 und Nasdaq liegen im Plus, während Öl und Anleiherenditen etwas nachgeben und damit kurzfristig für Entlastung sorgen. Im Fokus steht Broadcom: Der Konzern verhandelt über eine Fremdfinanzierung für KI-Chips und Rechenzentren, die insgesamt bis zu 100 Milliarden US-Dollar erreichen könnte. Das zeigt, wie stark der KI-Boom inzwischen vom Kreditmarkt abhängt. Positiv überraschen Ross Stores mit einem deutlichen Gewinn-Beat, 10 Prozent höheren vergleichbaren Umsätzen und einem angehobenen Ausblick sowie BJ's Wholesale mit besser als erwarteten Zahlen. Entscheidend bleibt aber die Frage, ob die hohen langfristigen Renditen den Technologiesektor weiter bremsen.

Cecilia Blankens, grundare av skovarumärket Blankens, gästar Framtidens E-handel för första gången. Hon berättar öppenhjärtigt om resan från journalist och bloggare till att bygga ett av Sveriges mest omtalade sko-varumärken helt utan extern marknadsföring de första tio åren och varför hon medvetet valt att driva bolaget själv, utan partner eller investerare. Samtalet rör sig från de dyraste misstagen (barnskor med minusmarginal och ett kraschat SAS-samarbete) till varför second hand-marknaden underskattas grovt av branschen, hur Blankens jobbar med snabba "readers" och portugisisk produktion för att undvika dött lager, och varför AI paradoxalt nog gör äkthet och personlig service viktigare än någonsin. Cecilia delar också sina tre sämsta affärsbeslut, sin relation till systern Elin Kling, och sin ärliga ambivalens kring hur stort Blankens egentligen ska bli.03:59 - Cecilias syn på risk och det största finansiella bettet hittills05:08 - Lärdomar från systern Elin Kling och hennes framgång07:04 - Varför Cecilia alltid drivit sina bolag själv, utan partner11:29 - De dyraste misstagen - bland annat barnskor med minusmarginal13:26 - Det kraschade SAS-samarbetet och vikten av skriftliga avtal20:20 - Spaning: second hand underskattas grovt i sko-branschen28:52 - Så jobbar Blankens med eget second hand och sample sale32:05 - AI-spaningen - varför äkthet blir viktigare, inte mindre viktig36:42 - Produktion i Portugal och varför fabriksbesöken är avgörande44:24 - Community-arbete via Instagram och Blankens Loop på Facebook58:20 - Målet om fem år - 100 miljoner i omsättning?Här hittar du Cecilia:https://www.linkedin.com/in/cecilia-blankens-09b014147/ https://blankens.com/ Sponsor Treyd:https://www.treyd.io/ Framtidens Berns Event:https://framtidensehandel.se/products/roast Följ Björn på LinkedIn:https://www.linkedin.com/in/bjornspenger/ Följ Framtidens E-handel på LinkedIn:https://www.linkedin.com/company/framtidens-e-handel/ Besök vår hemsida, YouTube & Instagram:https://www.framtidensehandel.se/ https://www.instagram.com/framtidens.ehandel/ https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCEYywBFgOr34TN8NtXeL5HQPoddproducent och klippare Michaela Dorch & Videoproducent Fredrik Ankarsköld:https://www.linkedin.com/in/michaela-dorch/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/ankarskold/ Tusen tack för att du lyssnar!Support till showen http://supporter.acast.com/framtidens-e-handel.

Welcome to this month's Answer Us Back, packed full of your responses to previous episodes of Answer Me This - or as it will soon be rebranded, Could Be True/Might Be Interesting. Today's track listing:  In response to AMT420's question about illegal use of wet wipes, Eileen in Bridgewater, New Jersey sends an impassioned plea for us to consider the bidet! So, we did. We have previously considered the bidet, btw, in AMT361.  A Swedish Person successfully survived their trip to London for which they asked for advice in AMT415 - but it ended up raising more questions, about bus ads for fruit, and being constantly asked about allergies.  BJ, who in AMT414 asked about how to respond to people asking what BJ stands for, has feedback about going on vacations with your family, having listened to AMT420's contemplation of that topic WHILE ON VACATION WITH HER FAMILY. Therefore her suggestions of survival tactics are freshly tested.  Since we're discussing vacations, Sarah from Plumpton in East Sussex wants to know whether you can count yourself as having been to a country if you've just stopped off at the airport there. And the question to which we allude, about what constitutes sex, is in AMT267.  Rich in Oxford is an airline captain, so swoops in with The Actual Facts regarding AMT420's question about whether commercial planes have keys and would be easy to steal.  In AMT419, Dan in Pennsylvania asked about which British produce he could grow on his farm in Pennsylvania; this continued in the last edition of Answer Us Back; now, Alyssa in Indianapolis supplies a great suggestion, plus a recommendation for a recent episode of Gastropod about when blackcurrants were illegal in the USA.  And Margaret requests an update on the storied family houseplant which Olly mentioned all the way back in AMT258.  If AMTs 1-420 left you with lingering questions and opinions, share them with us for future episodes of Answer Us Back. And as always, send in your questions, in voicenote or written form, to answermethispodcast@googlemail.com. All new AMT421 will be in your podfeed on 27 August 2026.  Help keep AMT going by signing up at patreon.com/answermethis, where you can get an ad-free version of the show, monthly bonus bits, our video livestream Petty Problems, AND access to our ENTIRE back catalogue, including all our paywalled episodes, our special albums, and all the Retro AMT episodes.  Answer Me This is sponsored by:  • Cozy Earth, luxurious bedding, sleepwear, loungewear, and towels for bath and beach.

Your browser choice matters more than you think. So this week on Privacy Tips, BJ reveals why ditching Chrome, Edge, and Google isn't just about privacy—it's about starving the systems that enable authoritarians and corporate surveillance. 

The Vikings are finally back on the field, and Stitch and BJ have plenty to unpack after Minnesota's first preseason game. From Carson Wentz looking like the best quarterback on the field to growing concerns about J.J. McCarthy's development and what Kyler Murray can bring to this offense, the quarterback conversation is already heating up. Plus, the guys break down an impressive Vikings defense, Dallas Turner's continued emergence, the heartbreaking injury to Jamal Adams, and whether this roster is simply too talented to wait for the quarterback position to figure itself out. Is it way too early to panic? Probably. Are Stitch and BJ going to panic anyway? Absolutely. And according to BJ, the solution might be simple: the Vikings just need to be “gooder.”SKOL!

2026 marks 10 years since I moved to Iceland, which is honestly a little hard for me to believe. I can still remember stepping off the plane, starting work, and feeling like my brain was being bombarded with things that seemed foreign or strange. Even hearing Icelandic names like Ása, Björn, and Arnbjörn took some getting used to. https://youtu.be/AKL2qYEzEkU Fast-forward a decade and so many of those things don’t even register as unusual anymore. They’re just…life. Living in another country for this long has also made me realize how much our definition of “normal” is shaped by where we grow up. Things that initially made me think, People actually do this?! are now things I barely notice, and in some cases, things I do myself. Here are 10 things that have become normal to me after living in Iceland for 10 years. 1. Letting Babies Nap Outside This might be the biggest transformation of them all because I went from thinking this was absolutely bizarre to doing it with my own baby. I learned about babies napping outside when I first visited Iceland in the winter of 2013. At the time, I couldn’t understand how people could possibly be comfortable leaving a baby outside to sleep. Then I had a baby. Halli’s mom showed us how to bundle her up properly so she could be warm while getting fresh air outside, and it completely changed the game for us. At one point, she could sleep for around three hours outside when an indoor nap might only last about 20 minutes. It’s also something you regularly see in Iceland. You can walk through residential neighborhoods or even pass cafés in downtown Reykjavík and see a stroller outside with a sleeping baby while a parent or caregiver is nearby and checking on them. Years ago, that sight would have immediately caught my attention. Now? Completely normal. 2. Thinking 60°F (15°C) Is Warm New York Jewells would like a word with current Jewells. I moved to Iceland in June 2016, and I remember seeing Icelanders walking around in shorts, T-shirts, and sandals when it was about 60°F/15°C. Meanwhile, I had on long pants, sneakers, a sweater AND a jacket. I genuinely thought, What is wrong with these people? This isn’t warm! Then something happened. I acclimated! After experiencing Icelandic winters and then feeling the temperature climb again, 60°F started feeling legitimately warm. If it’s around 60°F, sunny and, this is important, there’s no wind? That’s practically tropical now.  3. Accepting That Icelandic Summer Is Not Guaranteed Growing up in New York, summer meant something. You knew it was going to get warm. Probably hot. Possibly way too hot! Iceland technically has four seasons, but I’ve joked that we really have two: winter and summer. Halli says it’s more like winter and fall.  The bigger adjustment was realizing that just because the calendar says “summer” doesn’t mean Iceland’s weather has agreed to participate. You can have rainy, windy and chilly stretches where there’s plenty of daylight but hardly any actual sunshine. There have been summers when I felt cold for what seemed like the entire season. It’s also no surprise that plenty of Icelanders escape somewhere warmer when Iceland isn’t delivering the summer weather they want. Tenerife, anyone? Icelandic summer exists. Whether it decides to show up is another question. 4. Living With 24-Hour Daylight The nearly endless daylight of Icelandic summer is something I absolutely love now. When I first moved here? Not so much. My brain could not understand why I was supposed to be sleeping when it looked like the middle of the day outside. I tried sleeping with eye masks, but I didn’t find them particularly comfortable, and I constantly felt energized to stay awake and do things. Eventually, though, my body adjusted. After a few years, I could sleep through Icelandic summers without thinking much about the daylight outside. Now I LOVE this part of living here. Being able to go outside incredibly late at night and still have a bright sky is one of those Icelandic experiences that still feels special, even though it has become normal. 5. Living With the Very Short Days in Winter Of course, Iceland likes extremes. If summer gives us almost endless daylight, winter gives us the opposite. Around the shortest day of the year, we get only about four hours of daylight. And while the days technically start getting longer again after the winter solstice, those changes happen slowly enough that the darkness can feel like it lasts forever. My first Icelandic winter was rough! I remember feeling like I was basically holding on until winter ended so I could finally experience that release of summer again. And then came May 2017. Winter seemed to be over. I had made it! And then…it snowed. In May! I was MAD.  I felt personally betrayed by Icelandic weather. After surviving winter, snow in May felt like the weather was playing games with me. Now, I understand that unexpected weather is simply part of living here. Snow showers can happen incredibly late in the season, and Icelandic weather has a mind of its own. Over the years, I’ve also figured out what helps me through the dark months: getting outside, exercising, keeping myself occupied and usually having a big project to work on. The first couple of winters required some serious adjustment. After that, I found a rhythm that works for me 6. Having Limited Produce Options This is one thing I still REALLY notice when I leave Iceland. The variety of fruits and vegetables available here can be limited compared with what I was accustomed to in the United States. Sometimes you have a couple varieties of apples. Around Christmas, clementines and mandarins are everywhere. Other things appear periodically, but Iceland is an island that imports a significant amount of its produce, so we’re simply not going to have the same selection you’d find in a massive American supermarket. And yes, you sometimes need to inspect that produce pretty carefully. Then I go back to the U.S. and walk into a Whole Foods or Sprouts and practically lose my mind. Peaches, plums, nectarines, different varieties of apples! KALE! The kale situation in Iceland particularly gets me because I’ve seen it grown here as decoration and I’m thinking, Can you please just put it in the grocery store so I can eat it?! Still, I’ve stopped viewing the limited selection as inherently negative. It’s simply part of living on an island. And when I travel, I appreciate the variety elsewhere that much more 7. The Icelandic Stare Ohhhh, the Icelandic stare! Coming from New York, staring at strangers is generally not something you do. Then I moved to Iceland and suddenly people were LOOKING at me. Not glancing, staring! I’ve been told part of this comes from the small-town nature of Icelandic society. People might look at someone because they’re trying to figure out whether they recognize them or know their family. That took some serious getting used to. There was one experience when I lived in Árbær where a woman drove past me while practically turning her head to continue staring at me. I remember wondering whether something was happening around me before realizing, Nope. She’s looking at me. As a Black woman walking through a suburban Icelandic neighborhood, I couldn’t know whether she was simply curious, trying to recognize me, surprised to see someone who looked like me, or something else entirely. Eventually, I developed a coping mechanism: Staring contests. If you’re going to stare at me, I’m staring back.

Well, we didn't win the Powerball last night! 1 winner in Illinois took home $1 Billion! We can't believe it but we got two letters in the mail and you've got to hear what they say. Denver is suing big tobacco over what? There's a girl going viral for her rant on dating in Denver and how much it SUCKS. BJ's been stripped of his RV manhood!

BJ is uneasy this morning because part of his manliness has been ripped away from him.

His wife is taking the RV and he will have to meet up with them on Friday.

Happy Back to School Day DougCo! Will we be able to see the meteor shower tonight? BJ's fam went and searched the infamous "Bag Lady" yesterday and snapped a picture. The Powerball Jackpot is officially at $1 BILLION and we just got in on the Fox 31 pool? How are we feeling about flock cameras? Another cop has been busted using the cameras in Florida to spy on his ex wife.

Sometimes a cover song is so good, so singular that it completely eclipses the original version.  Think Sinéad O'Connor doing Prince's “Nothing Compares 2 U,” Jimmy Hendrix lighting up Bob Dylan's “All Along the Watchtower” or, of course, Whitney Houston's defining take on Dolly Parton's “I Will Always Love You.”  On this week's show, we share some of our picks for cover songs that are better than the originals, talk about why, and what, exactly, a cover song needs to become a classic.NPR Music's Dora Levite and Lars Gotrich join host Robin Hilton.Leave us a review on Apple or Spotify wherever you listen to podcasts. Questions, comments, suggestions or feedback of any kind always welcome: allsongs@npr.org(00:00) Intro and the top five G.O.A.T.s (06:06) Al Green: “I Wanna Hold Your Hand”(09:58) Björk: “It's Oh So Quiet”(12:28) Aretha Franklin: “Respect”(16:22) Low: “Last Night I Dreamt That Somebody Loved Me”(19:45) Andrew Paul Woodworth: “Fight For Your Right to Party”(25:10) Yaeji: “Passionfruit”(28:13) Shonen Knife: “Top of the World”(32:06) Wednesday: “She's Actin' Single (I'm Drinkin' Double)”(34:54) Low: “Fearless”(36:37) Harry Nilsson: “Without You”(39:57) Beyonce: “Before I Let Go (Homecoming Live Bonus Track)”(42:35) Gary Jules: “Mad World”(49:19) Chaka Khan: “I Feel For You”Support public media with NPR+ and enjoy perks for over 25 podcasts like this one.

Animal advocacy researcher Björn Ólafsson (More Than Meats The Eye, Better Food Foundation, Spain’s Animal Welfare Observatory) joins Jasmin and Mariann to unpack new UK survey data on public attitudes toward factory farming, why cognitive dissonance keeps animal lovers eating meat, and the behavioral science tactics — from “tasty titles” to plant-based defaults — that are quietly reshaping what people order.…

This weeks pod actually focuses more on the Brittany interview with People yesterday, then Lala and Salley talking about BJ's, toys, and more of their detailed sex life. Because Andy treats the reunions as "Lets see how many different questions I can ask in a 60 minute episode" it's hard to follow. Lacy/Michelle/Jesse are focused on the most and a couple observations regarding Jesse and Danny.Music written by Jimmer Podrasky (B'Jingo Songs/Machia Music/Bug Music BMI)See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Terry Anderson, editor of Adapt and Be Adept: Market Responses to Climate Change, presents a collection of economic and social essays arguing that market-based adaptation is the most practical and effective response to a changing climate. Using Pascal's Wager as a framework, Anderson suggests that preparing for climate impacts is a winning strategy regardless of the underlying causes. A major focus is the physical and economic limits of renewable energy; the book asserts that wind, solar, and battery storage are currently far too expensive and inefficient to replace fossil fuels, which remain the backbone of global specialization and prosperity. Anderson criticizes "top-down" political solutions like carbon taxes and "climate clubs," arguing they often devolve into disguised protectionism—a "bootleggers and baptists" scenario where special interests hide behind environmental rhetoric to secure subsidies or tariffs. Instead, the book promotes "price discovery" through financial and insurance markets as a way to harmonize human behavior with environmental reality. For example, when insurance rates accurately reflect the risk of storm surges, property values in coastal areas like Florida naturally adjust, incentivizing people to move to safer, higher ground. The text also highlights the importance of local knowledge, citing Alaskan native villages where traditional adaptation strategies are frequently hindered by rigid federal regulations that prevent them from following migrating wildlife. Contributors, including Mark Mills and Bjørn Lomborg, advocate for pragmatism over utopianism, suggesting that funds should be spent on tangible improvements like seawalls, better data collection, and poverty reduction rather than inefficient attempts to halt global climate shifts through government mandates.
