Podcasts about Bad Ideas

Are Democrats really ready for a comeback—or are we about to revisit the graveyard of their own failed experiments? The so-called “new paradigms” of the Obama-Biden years—open borders, DEI mandates, deficit socialism, disarmament, and radical gender ideology—didn't just falter… they collapsed under their own weight, argues Victor Davis Hanson on today's edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words:”

Mike tracks the interstate absurdities created by the EPA's repeal of emissions standards. Buy a car in Iowa, and by the time you hit Illinois, you're dodging an environmental, legal, and ideological patchwork quilt. Then, it's the grand opening of a brand new Cultural/ Podcast institution! Author and critic Kat Rosenfield joins Mike to cut the ribbon on the "Museum of Bad Ideas." Today's inaugural exhibit: Harvard University's proposal to introduce the "A+" grade. With 60% of Harvard students already getting A's, is the solution really to just add an 11 to the grading dial? Mike and Kat break down the customer-service model of higher education, the loss of youth resilience, and why the Ivy League's meritocracy is starting to look a lot like Spinal Tap's volume knob.

Safety isn't a slogan when streets get crowded and celebrations kick off. We sit down with a Texas Department of Public Safety sergeant for an unfiltered look at Mardi Gras patrols in Galveston—how a small island city scales up with state troopers and partner agencies to keep families safe, traffic moving, and DWIs down without killing the vibe. It's a masterclass in proactive policing and the power of visible, coordinated presence.From parades to neighborhoods, we tackle a growing hazard: mini electric pocket bikes. They're fast, silent, and, under Texas law, not street legal. Our guest breaks down exactly why these “mini pocket bikes” don't qualify for public roads, what makes an e-bike legal, and how parents can avoid tragic outcomes by setting strict rules and keeping these toys off the street. Then we open the door on a quieter crisis—youth vaping—and how it's bleeding into underage DUIs. We talk real risks, from THC exposure to potential contamination, and share practical steps for families, schools, and communities to push back.Truck lovers and daily commuters will appreciate our deep dive into CDL testing, weigh station enforcement, and why overweight citations matter. The sergeant details the tougher inspections rolling out along major Texas corridors, what triggers mandatory pull-ins, and how serious crashes can shut down roads for hours. We round it out with a fast lap through automotive headlines: China's push for mechanical EV door releases after fatal incidents, Volkswagen's software-first strategy in China, Porsche's EV cost crossroads, and Cadillac's move into Formula One—all while dealer networks wrestle with direct-to-consumer sales models.Hit play for candid insights, practical safety tips, and a clear-eyed view of how policy, technology, and enforcement shape our roads.

Westminster Confession 26, article 3, corrects serious theological errors about our communion with Christ and one another.

Thomas Sowell delivers a sweeping critique of American education, affirmative action, and modern universities, drawing on his own life story—from Harlem classrooms to Ivy League institutions—decades of research, and hard data. Sowell argues that ideology has replaced knowledge and that well-intentioned policies often harm the very people they are meant to help. He explores intersecting issues of race, charter schools, universities, AI, and the future of American institutions—with his usual clarity, candor, and unmistakable intellectual force.

Just when you think the worst ideas in regards to how to fix the Jets QB situation comes from “randos” on x, along comes ESPN and outdoes all of them. https://api.spreaker.com/v2/episodes/69525921/download.mp3 From the worldwide leader in sports, an nfl executive said the Jets would have available to them, Geno Smith, Tua Tagovaiola or Kyler Murray.  And no, we’re not joking. Directly from ESPN.com: This notion isn’t exactly bold — all three quarterbacks appear to not be in the long-term plans of their current franchises. But they are each former Pro Bowlers and several teams have a glaring need at the position each year. “Do the Jets get one of those three — that’s really the question I have,” an AFC executive said. “They could go young and load up for the 2027 draft of quarterbacks, but the head coach [Aaron Glenn] probably needs to win, so he might need more of a reliable option.” Miami and Arizona are saddled with large guarantees on deals with Tagovailoa and Murray, respectively. Murray would make more sense to New York, given Tagovailoa’s ties to the AFC East, but not everyone is convinced Arizona owner Michael Bidwill would pay a significant portion of Murray’s $37 million in guarantees for him to not play in Arizona. Smith’s contract is more manageable, with $18.5 million already guaranteed for 2026 (another $8 million becomes fully guaranteed on the third day of the new league year). The 35-year-old spent his first four seasons with the Jets, throwing 28 touchdowns and 36 interceptions before moving on. The Jets will need to make significant plans for a veteran passer regardless. Let’s look at each one realistically. Geno Smith: Say what you will about Woody Johnson, but even this move is beneath him.  The owner is going to try to sell the fan base on a new quarterback as he raises ticket prices yet again.  There is no way he’s going to sign off on bringing in a former malcontent as his production dips to unacceptable levels after enjoying a few good seasons. Tua Tagovailoa: Tua’s extensive and concerning concussion history should make him an automatic “NO” for the Jets.  Especially if the plan is to draft a quarterback who won’t be rushed into action. Kyler Murray: An undesirable option who would be the  “best” of the three.  You can at least say Murray is young(ish), has had some success and beat you with his arm and legs.  There would of course be questions about his work ethic, but the Jets would have to dismiss that and say it has been overblown or he outgrew his laid back approach.The post ESPN Exec has Three Very bad Ideas for Jets to add QB appeared first on JetNation.com - New York Jets Blog & Forum.

Your sharpest ideas can still fool you into doing the wrong thing.  Today we unpack why smart, driven people overtrust their thoughts, and how a simple 3-question filter turns hunches into high-quality decisions. Instead of chasing certainty, we practice decision hygiene: use evidence, test small, and weigh real outcomes before you go all in.  We start with the cognitive traps that quietly steer choices: availability bias makes vivid stories feel true, while the halo effect lets first impressions spill into misplaced trust. From there, we shift to practical tools you can use today.  You'll walk away with a compact framework you can apply to health goals, career pivots, and strategy shifts: evidence → experiment → evaluation → expanded outcomes.  If you're ready to swap guesswork for smart iteration, hit play, save the three questions, and put them to work.  If this helped you think clearer, subscribe, leave a review, and share it with a friend who's making a big decision right now.  Have more time to upgrade your thinking?

AI in Education's Christmas Special: Hallucinations, Headbands, and Bad Ideas In this end-of-year Christmas special, Ray and Dan squeeze in one final episode to reflect on a whirlwind year in AI and education - with a healthy dose of festive chaos. They unpack the latest AI news, including Australia's National AI Plan, OpenAI's Australian data centre and teacher certification course, major university rollouts of ChatGPT, and global experiments like nationwide AI tools in schools and targeted funding for AI-assisted teaching. But this episode quickly moves beyond policy and platforms into something more fun - and more unsettling! Ray challenges Dan with a "Real or Hallucinated?" quiz featuring AI products that may (or may not) exist, from focus-monitoring headbands and robot teachers to pet translators and laugh-track smart speakers. Along the way, they explore what these products reveal about current AI practice, the risks of anthropomorphising technology, and why education must keep humans firmly at the centre of learning - even as experimentation accelerates. It's a light-hearted but thoughtful way to wrap up 2025, and a reminder that just because AI can do something, doesn't always mean it should.   News Items in the episode   Tech companies advised to label and 'watermark' AI-generated content https://www.abc.net.au/news/2025-12-01/ai-guidance-label-watermark-ai-content/106083786    El Salvador announces national AI program with Grok for Education https://x.ai/news/el-salvador-partnership    Hong Kong schools to get HK$500,000 (about AU$100K/ US$65K) each under AI education plan https://www.scmp.com/news/hong-kong/education/article/3336600/hong-kong-schools-get-hk500000-each-under-hk500-million-ai-education-plan    OpenAI to open Australian hosted service https://www.afr.com/technology/openai-becomes-major-tenant-in-7b-data-centre-deal-20251204-p5nkr4    OpenAI ChatGPT for Teachers foundations course https://www.linkedin.com/posts/chatgpt-for-education_new-for-k-12-educators-chatgpt-foundations-activity-7404242317718487042-He9H    La Trobe chooses ChatGPT Education https://www.latrobe.edu.au/news/articles/2025/release/openai-collaboration-drives-inclusion,-innovation    Australia's Nation AI Plan https://www.industry.gov.au/publications/national-ai-plan

Misguided ideas surface in healthcare settings all the time.  With warmth and loving amusement, we reflect on how these initiatives—often wrapped in corporate optimism—miss the mark.  yet don't have to steal our peace.  Brilliantly bad ideas aren't about you and tehy don't have to steal your peace. They're structural, impersonal, and often just disconnected from the day-to-day reality of clinical life. We invite you to laugh with us, reflect, and most importantly, not to take them personally. Pearls of Wisdom: • Bad ideas often come with good intentions—they're usually more about systemic gaps than personal disrespect. • You get to choose how much energy to bring to these initiatives—humor and grace are powerful tools. • "Wellness" programs often miss the mark because they don't reflect the lived reality of those they're meant to support. • Expecting and accepting mismatched ideas can bring lightness—and maybe even loving amusement. Reflection Questions: • What is your favorite "brilliantly bad idea?"  • How might you use humor to help you when the next one comes your way? Please send us the brilliantly bad ideas you have witnessed.  We would love to hear them! If you're navigating burnout, frustration, or the absurdities of healthcare, we offer coaching, retreats, and workshops to help you find clarity, compassion, and joy again. Jessie offers 1:1 coaching and mindful retreats designed to bring back peace, purpose, and presence in your work and life.  Learn more at www.jessiemahoneymd.com/coaching and www.jessiemahoneymd.com/retreats. CME is available for most Pause & Presence offerings. If you'd like to bring humor, mindfulness, and meaning to your institution or event, we both offer also offer keynotes and workshops.

On this week's episode of The Pete the Planner Show, Pete tackles what might be the most misguided “solution” to housing affordability ever pitched: the 50-year mortgage. On the surface, it sounds like a clever way to make homes more affordable — smaller payments, easier approval, and a chance for more people to buy. But dig a little deeper, and it's clear this “innovation” is really a long-term financial trap. Pete breaks down the math, explores who really benefits, and explains why stretching your loan to half a century could make you the bank's favorite customer — and your future self's worst enemy.

Send us a textMinor league veteran and Game Day Advising founder Mike Van Hise breaks down how teams can squeeze more revenue from the same building—without gutting budgets or fan experience. We talk menu engineering, speed vs. margin at concessions, season-seat strategy, staffing math, and a simple “3% better” rule that compounds into real profit. If you lead marketing, ticketing, or operations, this is a tactical roadmap you can use this homestand.Key Topics CoveredClarity over cuts: Why operational efficiency starts with knowing where money flows (and leaks), not slashing line items.Concessions that move: Menu simplification, bottles/cans vs. fountain, and designing for speed so fans buy twice, not once.Presentation = price: “Cook to order” stations (grill, tacos/nachos) that lift perceived value and per caps.Ticketing mix that protects you from weather: Targeting a 33/33/33 revenue blend (season seats / groups / singles) and pushing pre-sold to 55–66%.Season seats the right way: Focus on business buyers; don't waste cycles trying to jump a single-game fan to 70 games.Change management: Killing “this is how we've always done it” by building trust and showing a clear plan.Smart staffing: Use entry-gate data, cross-train roles, and cut idle time early to avoid morale hits later.The 3% Rule: Micro-efficiencies across 150–200 budget lines, vendor prepay discounts, and compounding gains.Per-cap wins: Right number of beer taps, local SKUs for pricing power, and distributor intel (what's actually selling).Fail small, learn fast: Encourage $100–$500 tests; avoid the $10,000 mistake.

Shilo and Nastia sit down for a wide-ranging conversation about engaging with controversial thinkers, the role of skepticism in uncovering truth, and the cultural resistance to uncomfortable ideas. We cover the limits of philosophy and science, the prevalence of propaganda on all corners of the internet, and the sacred cow ideas that shape our understanding of reality.

Despite his deep delusions to the contrary, Donald Trump turning Washington, D.C. into a police state is making life and business in the District worse, thanks in large part to the team of bad faith bunglers Trump has assembled to carry out his will. While Trump's acolytes appear eager to help him weaponize the DOJ and law enforcement against his political enemies, their incompetence mostly yields embarrassment. The best possibility for a consistent ceasefire in Ukraine is if a coalition of outside countries deploy a NATO-like force to enforce it, argues former U.S. ambassador to Ukraine William Taylor. Texas State Rep. Nicole Collier is essentially imprisoned in the State Capitol because she won't agree to being monitored by police, so they won't unlock the doors to allow her to leave. Oklahoma's MAGA superintendent of public schools is working hard to make his state the most poorly educated in the nation by prioritizing right-wing ideological standards instead of fact-based scholastics. And Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem is probably wishing her spokesperson didn't invoke the church when offering a retort about Noem mooching a free apartment from the Coast Guard.

Send us a textThe path to breakthrough ideas starts with… the bad ones.In a world obsessed with perfection, Jason Keath makes a counterintuitive—and surprisingly liberating—case: bad ideas aren't the enemy, they're the engine.

A Note from James:Ryan Holiday is one of the few writers I consider a peer—not just because of the work he's done, but because of the choices he's made along the way. We've both published a lot of books. We've both dealt with audiences, platforms, and the weight of having a “point of view” in a world that increasingly wants you to pick a side. This episode wasn't meant to be a debate or an interview. It was just two people trying to make sense of the tension between creativity and truth, honesty and influence, and why sometimes the best thing you can say is nothing at all.Episode Description:In this candid and far-ranging conversation, James Altucher sits down with bestselling author Ryan Holiday to talk about the changing nature of creativity, writing, podcasting, and personal ethics in a polarized media landscape.They discuss the illusion of having to weigh in on every issue, the danger of algorithmic thinking, and how to stay true to your voice without becoming a prisoner to your audience. Whether you're a writer, a creator, or just trying to think more clearly in chaotic times, this episode offers real insight into the forces shaping our thinking—and how to resist them.What You'll Learn:Why sharing too early can kill creative momentumHow social media shifted from expression to algorithm worshipWhy long-form podcasts might be bad for your brainHow writing differs from other art forms in its tension and permanenceThe tradeoffs between artistic freedom, platform growth, and audience expectationsTimestamped Chapters:[00:00] Writing Without Talking About It[01:00] Why Book Ideas Need Time in the Dark[02:00] Creative Compulsion vs. Discipline[03:00] Stand-Up, Dopamine, and Daily Feedback[05:00] Point of View in a Binary World[06:00] Silence, Ethics, and Speaking Up[07:00] Noise as a Form of Violence[09:00] Political vs. Philosophical Disagreements[10:00] Social Media's Shift to Opinion Farming[11:00] The Algorithm as Audience Puppet Master[12:00] When the Audience Has You[13:00] Podcasting's Algorithm Problem[14:00] Are Podcasts Dangerous?[16:00] Podcasting vs. Books: Tension and Craft[18:00] The Rise of the Longform Grifter[20:00] RFK Jr., Bad Ideas, and No Fact Checks[22:00] Why Audiobooks Outperform Podcasts[23:00] Can the Medium Save Us?[25:00] When Podcasts Work (And When They Don't)[27:00] Music and the Emotional Power of Simplicity[29:00] Songs vs. Culture War Commentary[30:00] Great Lyrics, Great Feelings[32:00] Bono, Stoicism, and Making You Feel Seen[34:00] The Parasocial Magic of Fame[35:00] Acting, Politics, and Emotional Truth[37:00] Writing as the Hardest Artform[39:00] Why Great Writing Still MattersAdditional Resources:Ryan Holiday's website: ryanholiday.netThe Daily Stoic by Ryan Holiday: AmazonJames Altucher on Twitter: @jaltucherRyan Holiday's books on Amazon: Author PageOlivia Rodrigo – “Drivers License” (YouTube): Watch hereLed Zeppelin lyrics and discography: ledzeppelin.comU2 – “Sunday Bloody Sunday”: YouTubeSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Tired of the outdated “thirds” model in executive search? Andrew Mears was too. That's why he co-founded Lead Candidate—a niche search firm serving the pharma and bio-outsourcing sector—based on a transparent, fixed-fee subscription model that's up to 30% more cost-effective than traditional pricing. In this episode, Andrew reveals how Lead Candidate went from break-even to 133% revenue growth by rethinking everything: pricing, positioning, sales, and even internal rituals like “Tom's Day of Bad Ideas.” You'll hear how they grew entirely through referrals—no cold calls, no job scraping, no outbound—and why clients commit to 3–18 month subscription agreements that provide predictable revenue for the firm and budgeting certainty for their CFOs. If you're a recruitment firm owner frustrated with unpredictable billings, client churn, or the limitations of contingent search, this conversation will show you what's possible when you lead with values, relevance, and partnership—not pitches. Episode Highlights [3:24] Why Andrew left a COO role to start over during COVID—and how a health scare changed his outlook [12:22] The broken search pricing model—and how Lead Candidate built a better one [22:30] Defining a niche within a niche: how their positioning sets them apart [31:55] Capsule vs. Scale vs. Annual Subscription: how their pricing tiers work [43:39] Why they broke even for 2 years—then tripled revenue during a downturn [56:42] How they land clients without cold outreach [1:08:06] Tom's Day of Bad Ideas: the internal ritual that drives innovation [1:19:20] How they're using AI tools like Quill to free up human interaction Why This Subscription Model Works Instead of charging a percentage of salary in staged fees, Lead Candidate scopes each project based on hiring volume, role complexity, and delivery effort. Pricing is fixed, agreed upfront, and delivered via subscription—typically 3, 6, or 12+ months. This approach gives clients cost transparency and spending predictability—especially valuable for VC-backed, resource-constrained companies—and positions Lead Candidate as a strategic partner rather than a transactional vendor. No Cold Calls, Just Clients Lead Candidate didn't rely on cold outreach. Before launching, Andrew's team surveyed the market, co-created their offer with prospects, and built deep trust through relevance and listening. Their early clients didn't need convincing—they were already bought in. “We never sold. We just listened. The worst outcome was a great conversation.” This approach helped them create a high-conviction pipeline, long-term client relationships, and sticky recurring revenue—without chasing unqualified leads or relying on outdated biz dev tactics. A Values-First Growth Story The journey wasn't easy. For the first two years, they broke even. But Andrew and his co-founders stayed true to their niche, hired with care, and grew by reputation. By 2024, the firm had grown 133% in revenue and 250% in headcount—without compromising on culture or delivery quality. “We built the business the market told us it needed—and just stayed true to it.” About Andrew Mears Andrew is the CEO of Lead Candidate, a search firm he co-founded in 2020 to champion talent in the global life sciences sector. He began his career in HR before moving into executive recruitment, where he's spent 16+ years building national and international practices.

For the final episode in our current series on the history of bad ideas, David talks to philosopher Alexander Douglas about the damage that can be done by the idea of identity. Why is the search for a distinctive personal identity such a futile quest? How does it lead to an identity politics of exclusion and violence? What can we learn from the philosopher Spinoza about having an identity without identity? And what can we glean from the experience of dementia about losing ourselves? 'Against Identity: The Wisdom of Escaping the Self' by Alexander Douglas is out now wherever you get your books https://bit.ly/40d8xES Available from Saturday on PPF+: Part 2 of David's conversation with Alexander Douglas in which they talk about how Silicon Valley took a philosophical concept of identity and turned it into a commodity to be marketed.

Moist-soil habitat management involves lots of moving pieces, making it too easy to focus on one aspect and lose sight of the entire playing field. Kevin Nelms returns to break down the art and science--from ground-zero planning and mindset shifts to water manipulation, plant succession, and building a legacy for future generations of hunters--and ducks.

In today's episode of the history of bad ideas, David talks to political philosopher Alan Finlayson about behaviourism, a theory of psychology that has penetrated to the heart of politics. How did we get from Pavlov's Dog to a prescription for a better society? What is the relationship between behavioural utopianism and contemporary economics? How did behaviourism get turned into something called ‘Nudge'? And if we are being nudged into better behaviour, what is left for politics?
