Joe and Kyle debrief a hometown Dreamshadow Transpersonal Breathwork weekend in Breckenridge, then sketch the next chapter for Psychedelics Today: a community-centric model (Navigators) that bundles education, live streams, book and film clubs, and small-group access. They kick around the big “creativity + psychedelics” question, contrast subjective “I feel creative” with objective task performance, and highlight new research—from DMT's potential in stroke recovery to breathwork's measurable effects. They wrap with quick hits on MAPS leadership, state policy moves, and what's coming up at PT this fall. Highlights & takeaways Breathwork > substance? A reminder that profound states are accessible without drugs; benefits of facilitating at home (rested facilitators = safer, better containers). What is “shamanism,” really? A functional frame: non-ordinary states, interaction with the unseen, and service (healing/divination). Community > one-off courses: PT is shifting toward a monthly membership model to keep prices accessible, deepen relationships, and sustain more free content. Creativity debate: Double-blind study (DMT + harmine vs harmine vs placebo) suggests impaired convergent thinking despite increased felt creativity; how to define and measure “creativity” fairly, and other research outcomes might tell a different story. Whitehead & novelty: A quick tour through Alfred North Whitehead's notion of “creativity” as the principle of novelty—useful language for mapping psychedelic insight to real-world change. Neuro + clinical frontiers: DMT for stroke (animal models): BBB stabilization and reduced neuroinflammation signal a promising adjunct to current care. Cluster headaches: Emerging reports on short-acting DMT for rapidly aborting cluster cycles; more data coming soon. Breathwork science: New imaging work associates music-supported hyperventilatory breathwork with blissful affect and shifts in blood flow. News & culture mentioned MAPS leadership: Betty Aldworth & Ismail (Izzy) Ali named permanent Co-Executive Directors. Policy snapshots: Colorado Natural Medicine Board recommending ibogaine (with Nagoya-compliance requirement); Alaska signature gathering; Massachusetts activity. Media & scene: Hamilton's recent appearances; contamination concerns in some “psilocybin” products; “psychedelics tick far more neurons than expected” paper; mixed findings for postpartum depression.

De verkiezingen van 29 oktober gaan over de koers en de toekomst van ons land. En dus over het geld dat we daar voor over hebben en hoe dat bijeen gebracht wordt. De rijksfinanciën en de belastingen zijn dan ook een belangrijk politiek thema. Hoe laat het kabinet-Schoof deze achter? Wat is urgent bij inkomsten en uitgaven van de rijksoverheid? Wat is voor de lange termijn essentieel? Weke plannen van de partijen verdienen daarbij aandacht? En welk Tweede-Kamerlid excelleert op dit wezenlijke terrein? Jaap Jansen en PG Kroeger praten hierover met Djoeke Altena, politiek columnist van Weekblad Fiscaal Recht en website TaxLive. *** Deze aflevering is mede mogelijk gemaakt met donaties van luisteraars die we hiervoor hartelijk danken. Word ook vriend van de show! Help mee aan de bloedvoorziening in Nederland, word bloeddonor op sanquin.nl/geef Heb je belangstelling om in onze podcast te adverteren of ons te sponsoren? Zend ons een mailtje en wij zoeken contact. *** Het financiële beeld dat minister Eelco Heinen (Financiën) nalaat na vijftien maanden kabinet-Schoof lijkt op het eerste gezicht niet onaardig. Maar het begrotingstekort schuurt tegen de grens van 3 procent van het bnp aan en gaat er waarschijnlijk overheen. De staatsschuld daalt niet langer maar schiet omhoog, de komende jaren maskeren fantoomdekkingen een ondeugdelijke begroting, terwijl de noodzakelijke investeringen geschrapt zijn voor consumptieve cadeautjes aan de kiezers. Toezichthoudende organisaties - van Rekenkamer tot Europese Commissie - luiden de noodklok. Djoeke Altena waarschuwt: “Het komende kabinet zal voor noodzakelijke investeringen en hersteloperaties veel geld moeten vinden. Dat kunnen de partijen nu in de campagne maar beter eerlijk toegeven." Het komende kabinet moet zich met spoed buigen over dreigende gaten en niet opgeloste problemen, zoals bij de beruchte Box-3, het 'ravijnjaar' dat de gemeenten bedreigt, de Europese meerjarenbegroting en de lange termijn investeringsfondsen. De vijf staatssecretarissen die in ‘Schoof’ met belastingen en toeslagen belast waren, hebben niet veel gedaan - of kunnen doen. Gelukkig gaat het bij de Belastingdienst zelf de goede kant op, meldt Djoeke Altena. Nog even en de dienst kan grote veranderingen weer aan. Er zijn veel fiscale regelingen die niet doen wat ze zouden moeten doen, maar hardnekkig gehandhaafd worden vanwege deelbelangen. Ook Rekenkamerpresident Pieter Duisenberg wees hier al op. Toch is ook hier door Schoofs kabinet slechts €7 miljoen gesaneerd, hoewel volgens deskundigen 35 miljard euro weggesaneerd zou kunnen worden. Snel kan een nieuw kabinet werk maken van betere fiscale rechtsbescherming. Djoeke Altena wijst op initiatieven van Nina Olson – de voormalige Tax Payer Advocate in Amerika - die in ons land inmiddels zijn overgenomen, zoals het Handvest van Rechten en Plichten. Zoiets kost niets, maar heeft veel impact voor burgers. In de komende kabinetsformatie zouden constructieve partijen een coherente, integrale vereenvoudiging van het fiscaal stelsel moeten afspreken. Niet-werkende fiscale regelingen, duidelijkheid over vermogens en erfenissen en lagere lasten op arbeid en duurzame productie en consumptie zijn al gedegen voorbereid, maar tijdens het kabinet-Schoof blijven liggen. Verdere vertraging is erg kostbaar en geeft bedrijven niet de duidelijkheid waar ze naar snakken. Lezend in de verkiezingsprogramma’s ziet Djoeke Altena opmerkelijke plannen. Zo poogt de PVV de boerenachterban van BBB opzichtig te paaien met fiscale cadeaus en wil ze kunstminnaars juist op kosten jagen. De VVD komt met een serie nieuwe wetten die ondernemers en werkenden moeten helpen. Maar de verfoeide regeldruk wordt daarmee allerminst verminderd. Boeiend is dat veel partijen met eigen plannen komen voor afschaffing van de hypotheekrenteaftrek. De fiscaal specialisten in de Kamer kunnen met doordachte compromissen bijdragen aan de noodzakelijke doorbraken op al deze thema's. Hun inzet is groot, maar ze worden zelden geroemd. Djoeke Altena vertelt dat hier verandering in komt. De Bond voor Belastingbetalers zet vanaf nu jaarlijks de meest effectieve en creatieve volksvertegenwoordiger in het zonnetje. Aan het einde van deze aflevering maakt hij namens de Bond bekend wie de eerste laureaat is… *** Verder luisteren 529 – Schoten voor de boeg in de verkiezingscampagne https://omny.fm/shows/betrouwbare-bronnen/529-schoten-voor-de-boeg 525 –Wat Brainport Eindhoven ons leert en hoe we onze economie nóg toekomstbestendiger kunnen maken https://omny.fm/shows/betrouwbare-bronnen/525-wat-brainport-eindhoven-ons-leert-en-hoe-we-onze-economie-n-g-toekomstbestendiger-maken 516 – Files op het elektriciteitsnet: de energietransitie dreigt slachtoffer te worden van het eigen succes https://art19.com/shows/betrouwbare-bronnen/episodes/54ccc73e-4200-4dbc-87c8-213c70e97491 507 - Het strenge oordeel van Rekenkamerpresident Pieter Duisenberg https://art19.com/shows/betrouwbare-bronnen/episodes/19fb3651-29be-49dd-854b-eeb65ec692ff 501 - Den Haag zonder Omtzigt en een Voorjaarsnota zonder beleid https://art19.com/shows/betrouwbare-bronnen/episodes/03d5c905-9a8d-474c-980c-5e8dd7f209a9 493 - Het belastingkaartenhuis wankelt https://art19.com/shows/betrouwbare-bronnen/episodes/8e0d7872-9be8-439b-94cc-911bf8f7509e 426 - Een doodgewoon meerderheidskabinet met een allesbepalende financiële plaat https://art19.com/shows/betrouwbare-bronnen/episodes/efb48549-3266-405e-8a97-ddc3e6b4e486 382 - 250 jaar Verenigde Staten: de Boston Tea Party en de rechtsbescherming van belastingbetalers in Nederland https://art19.com/shows/betrouwbare-bronnen/episodes/c44ec04f-9408-41be-b5e3-3fab8905ab66 291 – De dubbele jaren van staatssecretaris Marnix van Rij https://art19.com/shows/betrouwbare-bronnen/episodes/2ae6cd4c-9054-4d48-8481-b868182cace2 275 - Nina Olson: Waarom Nederland net als de VS een Taxpayer Advocate moet krijgen https://art19.com/shows/betrouwbare-bronnen/episodes/07aa7c05-edf7-4dac-a292-dd8ba7a2a5d1 247 - Belastingheffing in box 3: hoe de Hoge Raad de wetgever op de vingers tikt en opzadelt met een hels karwei https://art19.com/shows/betrouwbare-bronnen/episodes/cd788cd0-6982-444e-901f-f695ea8e2c79/ 147 – De kindertoeslagaffaire: het ging al mis bij de wetgeving https://art19.com/shows/betrouwbare-bronnen/episodes/b08f3ba1-eb89-4740-a5e7-8d3211038a26 17 - Hoe Rekenkamerpresident Arno Visser de overheid controleert https://art19.com/shows/betrouwbare-bronnen/episodes/9052a9fc-235a-493c-aa5f-104e61d25ddd *** Tijdlijn 00:00:00 – Deel 1 00:29:24 – Deel 2 01:02:15 – deel 3 01:24:13 – Einde See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) will likely consider approving Tata Sons' request to de-register as an upper layer non-banking finance company (NBFC), subject to meeting certain conditions, sources say. As the RBI's deadline for upper layer NBFCs to list by September end approaches, the regulator may also extend the timeline for Tata Sons to meet those conditions, writes Piyush Shukla. Tata Sons has been engaging with the regulator on several aspects of its classification as an upper layer NBFC and sources indicated a favourable response, especially its request for de-registration. There was no response from Tata Sons to a clarification request. Jaguar Land Rover to resume production in ‘coming days' British luxury carmaker Jaguar Land Rover (JLR) is taking steps to resume vehicle production, and as the first step will restart some sections of its manufacturing in the coming days following the cyberattack, reports Aroosa Ahmed. “Today we are informing colleagues, retailers and suppliers that some sections of our manufacturing operations will resume in the coming days. We continue to work around the clock alongside cybersecurity specialists, the UK Government's NCSC and law enforcement to ensure our restart is done in a safe and secure manner,” it said in a statement.  The company stated that, as part of the controlled phased restart of operations, it is taking further steps towards recovery and returning to manufacturing its vehicles.  JLR had shut its vehicle manufacturing up till October 1 after a cyberattack. On Sunday the UK government said it will guarantee a £1.5 billion loan to JLR, which will support its supply chain. The British luxury carmaker had suffered an overall impact on its system and plant operations due to a cyberattack that was discovered on August 30, which led to the closure of its manufacturing plants.

What if you could create one coaching program that becomes the cornerstone of your business — the thing you're known for, that clients immediately recognize, and that keeps generating revenue year after year? That's exactly what happened for me when I built the Business Building Bootcamp (BBB) — my flagship, one-year business-building program for coaches. In this episode, I'm pulling back the curtain on how and why I created it, the lessons I learned along the way, and how you can tell if you're ready to design your own signature course. I'll take you back to year 10 of my coaching career, when my practice was already full and I was focused on burnout, alcohol, and life transitions for professional women. Out of the blue, coaches from my latest certification class started coming to me for help building their businesses. Their training had promised business-building support, but the reality fell short — and they saw me as someone who was actually doing it successfully. At first, I took them on 1:1. But soon, I was booked to the max, it was too expensive for many of them, and — maybe most importantly — I couldn't give them the community they were craving. That's when the BBB was born: a combination of an online course library, live coaching support, monthly expert masterclasses, and a 24/7 peer community. In this episode, I share: Why having a signature course can be a total game-changer for your coaching business 3 signs you're ready to start building your own flagship offer 5 key things to think about before you start designing it How your signature course can become the foundation for other programs and offers down the line If you've been feeling the pull to create something bigger than your current 1:1 work — something scalable, sustainable, and uniquely you — this episode will give you the clarity you need to get started. And if you're ready to skip the trial-and-error phase and actually build your course with my help? That's exactly what my Coaching Course Creator (CCC) is for. It's my 8-week guided process to help you nail your niche problem and promise, structure your content, and create a course you can confidently launch.

Vannacht ging het nieuwe Kieskompas live. Dat is geen stemwijzer, maar de traditionele digitale meetlat waarop kiezers hun eigen plek in het politieke landschap zien. Het politieke veld ziet er anders uit. In de matrix schuift rechts verder op naar rechts – BBB staat ineens pal naast PVV, Forum en Ja21 - terwijl het CDA zich na jaren weer pontificaal in het midden meldt. Wat betekent het voor de campagne die nu op stoom komt richting 29 oktober? Dat bespreken we met Willem Blanken, directeur van het Kieskompas en Floor Doppen, politiek verslaggever.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Dopo la buona notizia di venerdì arrivata dall'agenzia di rating Fitch che ha migliorato il giudizio dell'Italia a BBB+ da BBB, oggi anche l'Istat è foriera di ottimismo. L Istituto ha rivisto al rialzo la stima sul Pil del 2023: dallo 0,7% previsto a marzo scorso, sulla base dei nuovi dati sale a 1%, con una revisione positiva di 0,3 punti percentuali. L istituto spiega che c è stata un modifica dei tassi di crescita delle componenti: i consumi delle famiglie hanno registrato un aumento allo 0,5% dallo 0,3% dell edizione precedente e i consumi delle amministrazioni pubbliche all 1,1% (da +0,6% nella versione precedente). Ne parliamo con Franco Bruni, presidente dell'Ispi e professore emerito del dipartimento di Economia dell'Università BocconiCersaie, energia e tensioni geopolitiche allarmano l'industria ceramicaNei padiglioni di BolognaFiere, da oggi 22 settembre al 26, ha preso il via la 42esima edizione torna Cersaie, salone internazionale della ceramica per l architettura e dell arredobagno. Torna, ampliato, su 155 mila metri quadrati (10 mila in più rispetto al 2024), 620 espositori, dei quali 243 stranieri (il 39% del totale), provenienti da 29 Paesi. "Cersaie si conferma un salone cardine del trasferimento del valore dell'eccellenza della nostra produzione, attraverso il canale trade, a una molteplicità di interlocutori", dice Filippo Manuzzi, presidente della commissione Promozione e fiere di Confindustria Ceramica. «Vogliamo coinvolgere tutti gli operatori nella ricerca delle tante nuove applicazioni di un materiale che oggi è protagonista anche dell'arredo urbano», prosegue Manuzzi. Approfondiamo il tema con Augusto Ciarrocchi, presidente Confindustria Ceramica.Trump lancia la gold card per la cittadinanza. E i visti diventano più cariCon l'obiettivo di rimodellare il sistema dei visti statunitense per lavoratori stranieri altamente qualificati e investitori, il presidente Donald Trump alla fine della scorsa settimana ha firmato un provvedimento che richiederà una nuova tassa annuale di 100 mila dollari per le domande di visto H-1B e ha introdotto un visto "gold card" da 1 milione di dollari come potenziale via d'accesso alla cittadinanza statunitense. Queste iniziative si scontrano con sfide legali pressoché certe e con diffuse critiche sul fatto che Trump stia andando oltre l'autorità presidenziale eludendo il Congresso. Le misure porteranno a un aumento vertiginoso dei prezzi per i visti per lavoratori altamente qualificati e investitori, creati dal Congresso nel 1990. Al momento per registrarsi alla lotteria per ottenere un visto H-1B si pagano 215 dollari, ai quali si aggiungono altri 780 dollari per le aziende che sponsorizzano il richiedente. Lo scorso anno sono state approvate 400.000 richieste per i visti H-1B, di cui l'India è la maggiore beneficiaria. La stretta rischia quindi di esacerbare ulteriormente i rapporti già tesi fra Washington e New Delhi dopo i maxi-dazi imposti da Trump per gli acquisti di petrolio russo. Ne parliamo con Alessandro Plateroti, Direttore di NewsMondo.it.

Officieel ging het deze week over de begroting van het dubbeldemissionaire kabinet-Schoof. Maar die begroting stelt niet veel voor dit jaar. Nieuwe plannen zijn er nauwelijks, en geld voor nieuw beleid al helemaal niet. Dus werd er vooral voorgesorteerd op de verkiezingen.In deze Haagse Zaken gaan we traditiegetrouw álle partijen uit de APB langs. Onze Haags redacteuren volgden de tweedaagse debatten en vertellen je wat zij leerden over de politieke verhoudingen, wie straks met wie wil samenwerken en welke plannen partijen hebben voor Nederland ná 29 oktober.

Miljoenennota en Troonrede waren ‘beleidsarm’, want zo vlak voor Kamerverkiezingen zou een demissionair kabinet met minimale steun in het parlement zich terughoudend opstellen. Moesten de Algemene Politieke Beschouwingen die afgelopen week plaatsvonden dan niet eveneens 'beleidsarm' zijn? Het tegendeel bleek. Jaap Jansen en PG Kroeger zagen liefst drie edities van de APB tegelijk. Op sommige punten werden allerminst 'beleidsarme' initiatieven en politieke conclusies geagendeerd. De eerste verkenningen van een 'post-Schoof-Nederland'. *** Deze aflevering is mede mogelijk gemaakt met donaties van luisteraars die we hiervoor hartelijk danken. Word ook vriend van de show!

Geert Wilders was van leider van regeringsfractie PVV weer oppositie geworden en dat liet-ie horen. Hij strooide dystopische beweringen rond over 'nationale zelfmoord' en dat binnen een jaar nadat hijzelf de zon zou laten schijnen. Wilders slaakte furieuze kreten van rancune over de mislukking van zijn coalitie en zijn verspeelde premierschap en erkende openlijk de kloof met zijn eigen PVV-bewindslieden. Met voorstellen die grondwettelijke vrijheden en rechten van burgers zouden schrappen, bouwde de PVV-leider een eigen cordon sanitaire naar alle andere partijen. Om zich vervolgens luidkeels te beklagen over tegenwerking en opnieuw een aanstaand premierschap op te eisen. De tweede Algemene Politieke Beschouwingen was een debatfase van indringende en hoogwaardige gedachtewisseling tussen de klassieke partijen rond het midden. Minister Eelco Heinen (Financiën) had daarbij het geluk dat zijn krakkemikkige begroting nauwelijks aandacht kreeg. Partijen als VVD, GroenLinks-PvdA, CDA, D66 en ChristenUnie verkenden veel meer elkaars bereidheid tot consensusvorming en handreikingen. Maar zochten daarbij ook het debat over elkaars eigen profiel en visie. Frans Timmermans (GroenLinks-PvdA) ontpopte zich nadrukkelijk als verbindende staatsman die zijn wens van een ‘sociale vooruitgangscoalitie’ uitbouwde door allianties te smeden. De ‘buffelboete" werd zo ineens een nieuw Haags begrip. Henri Bontenbal (CDA) kon op drie lange termijn doelen resultaten boeken, waarmee hij zich als generalist profileerde. De andere fracties benaderden hem allang niet meer als die 'energie-nerd' met zijn splinterpartijtje. Hij werd scherp bevraagd. Net als overigens eenling Joost Eerdmans (JA21), die niet wist wat hem overkwam. Dilan Yesilgöz (VVD) had moeite haar tegenbod van ‘een centrumrechts kabinet’ concreet te maken. Rob Jetten (D66) voelde er niets voor. En de door Yesilgöz graag in zo’n kabinet gewenste JA21 en BBB vlogen bovendien elkaar in de haren. Een offensief tegen 'links' op financieel-economische thema's kwam niet op gang. Integendeel, de VVD sloot zelfs een deelakkoord met de Socialistische Partij. De derde Algemene Politieke Beschouwingen gingen over de bijna vergeten Troonrede. Zo werd de opmerkelijke passage over de Nederlandse militaire inzet in Polen nauwelijks genoteerd. En 'klimaat' leek als thema verdampt. De vage zorgen in de rede over het Midden-Oosten werden gehoond bij gebrek aan concrete actie, zoals voor kinderen in Gaza. Premier Dick Schoof ging ten onder in retorisch geweld. Schoofs pijnlijk gebrek aan politiek repertoire herinnerde eens te meer aan een interview kort voor zijn premierschap, toen hij nog de hoogste ambtenaar was op Justitie. Daarin gaf hij aan zich vooral senang te voelen als uitvoerder van andermans politieke richtlijnen. Burgemeester in oorlogstijd zou hij nooit worden, dacht hij toen. *** Verder luisteren 529 – Schoten voor de boeg in de verkiezingscampagne https://vriendvandeshow.nl/bb/episodes/529-schoten-voor-de-boeg 525 –Wat Brainport Eindhoven ons leert en hoe we onze economie nóg toekomstbestendiger kunnen maken https://vriendvandeshow.nl/bb/episodes/525-wat-brainport-eindhoven-ons-leert-en-hoe-we-onze-economie-nog-toekomstbestendiger-kunnen-maken 524 - Met een wrakhoutkabinet naar de verkiezingen https://vriendvandeshow.nl/bb/episodes/524-met-een-wrakhoutkabinet-naar-de-verkiezingen 521 - Hoe saaier de politiek, hoe gelukkiger het land https://vriendvandeshow.nl/bb/episodes/521-hoe-saaier-de-politiek-hoe-gelukkiger-het-land 517 - Na de champagne de campagne https://art19.com/shows/betrouwbare-bronnen/episodes/a98527fb-b8fb-49cb-a102-fab43ff3185f 514 – De 'andere waarheid' na Schoof https://art19.com/shows/betrouwbare-bronnen/episodes/ad370858-1ae4-447b-8d4b-1bcf7bc33ac2 502 – Schipperen, laveren, boot afhouden en bakzeil halen.

Het stikstofdossier wordt ook wel het hoofdpijndossier genoemd. En met een reden, want Nederland zit door de stikstofproblematiek al jaren 'op slot'. Landbouwminister Femke Wiersma, van de BBB, beloofde met oplossingen te komen. Maar plannen blijven uit en de druk om deze crisis op te lossen wordt alleen maar hoger. Hoe we komen we hier uit? te gast: Kees Foekema, programmamaker klimaat, landbouw en milieu bij De Balie.  

Barry Moore chats with Jeff about the BBB.

Nederland gaat richting de verkiezingen van 2025 en de politieke spanningen lopen hoog op. In deze aflevering van Campagnekoorts bespreken Talitha Muusse, Jasper van Dijk, Maurice de Hond en Ad Verbrugge niet alleen de laatste peilingen, maar vooral de fundamentele problemen waar ons land mee te maken heeft: bestuurbaarheid, polarisatie, globalisering vs. lokalisering, defensie en de impact van kunstmatige intelligentie.Wat betekent dit voor partijen als CDA, SP, PvdA/GL, VVD, PVV en BBB? Komt er een noodkabinet? En wie kan Nederland echt door deze crisis leiden – Timmermans, Wilders, Bontebal of anderen?

Afgelopen weekend congresseerden maar liefst zes partijen. Ze staan in slagorde en zetten de kern van hun boodschap, hun strategie en tactische manoeuvres klaar voor hun offensief, voor hun defensieve flanken en de weg naar electorale triomf. Alle reden voor Jaap Jansen en PG Kroeger om in kaart te brengen wat opviel, wat miste, wat verraste en wie zich mochten profileren. *** Deze aflevering is mede mogelijk gemaakt met donaties van luisteraars die we hiervoor hartelijk danken.

Toch heeft Geert Wilders het allerminst eenvoudig. Zijn triomf van 2023 en de regeerflop daarna heeft hem opnieuw een cordon sanitaire opgeleverd. En hem beroofd van thema's. Wilders zet alle ballen op asiel. Dat thema dient als codewoord voor alles wat hij haat: Islam, moslims, de Koran en 'woke'. De sociale Geert is verdwenen, net als al die PVV-bewindslieden die de boodschappen en de zorg goedkoop zouden maken. Ook wil hij best met iedereen samenwerken als hij maar premier wordt en 'de asielagenda' onverkort uitgevoerd. Het gaat dus maar om één ding: wraak op een verdampte vijand, Omtzigt. Daarvoor is hij zelfs bereid zijn gevaarlijkste opponenten op het schild te hijsen: Frans Timmermans en Henri Bontenbal. Het NSC De partij is Pieter Omtzigt voorbij, maar wil een brug blijven, onderstreepte lijsttrekker Eddy van Hijum. De vraag blijft: tussen welke oevers. In november 2023 wás NSC zo’n brug, die Dilan Yesilgöz en Caroline van der Plas toen wel wilden bewandelen. Nu NSC de PVV in de ban doet, ziet Jaap eerder een draaibrug voor zich. Het CDA Ruud Lubbers' Rotterdam paste als locatie wel bij de boodschap van Henri Bontenbal. Niet de somberheid van Sybrand Buma of de consultant-uitstraling van Wopke Hoekstra, maar Lubbers' eenheid van 'de drie p's' - partij, program en persoon - vielen op. Vier grote namen zweefden boven de zaal, de speeches en discussies. Angela Merkel met haar nadruk op de 'Besonnenheit' van 'die Mitte', Konrad Adenauer met zijn waarschuwing 'Keine Experimente', Lubbers met het nuchtere, aanpakkerige en Europese en Dries van Agt met “Wij buigen niet naar links en wij buigen niet naar rechts.” De VVD Het liberale dilemma is lastig. De partij van Ruttes stabiel bestuur vertoont labiliteit sinds in 2023 de deur werd opengezet naar de PVV. Haar bondgenoten heeft de VVD van zich vervreemd, op het niet-liberale BBB na. Dilan Yesilgöz verdedigde haar koers opmerkelijk: om rechtse resultaten te boeken had zij welbewust die Schoof-coalitie gesloten. En daarom wilde ze nu opnieuw 'centrumrechts', zij het nu dan met CDA, D66 en JA21 erbij. De VVD doet hiermee nu denken aan de periode-Nijpels die in 1986 moest hopen dat het CDA groot genoeg werd om zelf nog een kans te hebben. De zelfbewuste VVD van Frits Bolkestein die Paars mogelijk maakte lijkt geheel vergeten. En de pogingen van Mark Rutte om met GroenLinks te gaan regeren eveneens. Andere congressen - JA21, ChristenUnie, Partij voor de Dieren - waren ook boeiend en er komen er nog een aantal aan. De knallende schoten voor de boeg zijn nog maar het begin. *** Verder luisteren 524 - Met een wrakhoutkabinet naar de verkiezingen https://vriendvandeshow.nl/bb/episodes/524-met-een-wrakhoutkabinet-naar-de-verkiezingen 521 - Hoe saaier de politiek, hoe gelukkiger het land https://omny.fm/shows/betrouwbare-bronnen/521-hoe-saaier-de-politiek-hoe-gelukkiger-het-land 517 - Na de champagne de campagne https://omny.fm/shows/betrouwbare-bronnen/517-na-de-champagne-de-campagne 514 – De andere waarheid na Schoof https://art19.com/shows/betrouwbare-bronnen/episodes/ad370858-1ae4-447b-8d4b-1bcf7bc33ac2 509 - Het verdriet van Geert Milders https://omny.fm/shows/betrouwbare-bronnen/509-het-verdriet-van-geert-milders 491 - De voortdurende twijfels van Nieuw Sociaal Contract https://art19.com/shows/betrouwbare-bronnen/episodes/83010cd4-3e7d-474d-a4aa-502aa73c94ea 474 – Parlementair historicus Joop van den Berg: “De democratie is in groot gevaar.

I had it threaded a few years ago but since the barrel profile is so thin, it's threaded 1/2x28. Most 30 cal cans are threaded 5/8x24 so I'd have to run a thread adapter for a can. Would you a) use a thread adapter and affix it in a permanent/semi-permanent fashion, b) purchase a 30 cal can able to accept a 1/2x28 thread pattern, or c) get an aftermarket barrel with a heavier profile that is cut for 5/8x24? Use case is long range plinking and hunting. Barrel length is 24" if that matters. If it doesn't, then fuck me I guess.  Kermit Thee Frog - "I'm looking at upgrading the scope on my 6.5 Grendel that I primarily used for blacktail hunting, but i'm recently getting into more mid and long range shooting at 300-1100 yards so far with it and thinking about trying out the Swampfox Warhawk 3-15. C_DOES on YouTube did a really good review of the 2-10 variant but I haven't been able to find much information on the 3-15. I'm concerned that the glass quality may be good enough for 10x but falls apart when pushed to 15x. Have any of you had any hands on experience with this optic and what are your thoughts on it? I'm also looking at the Athlon Ares BTR gen 3 but leaning more towards the Swampfox because of the price and it has locking turrets. Thanks gents." Jack B - As I'm sure you guys are aware, the Earth's magnetic poles are about to shift and it will cause cataclysmic floods and tectonic shifts. Most experts expect the landmasses to liquefy and move everything to the opposite side of the world in a matter of hours. My question for you is, what's your loadout for this event? What will be the best gun to use to shoot the magnetic poles and liquified earth to keep your self and your loved ones safe? Or, if it doesn't work, what gun will make me look coolest to the archeologists who dig me up in 20,000 years. Nicholas J - "Hey guys, first off love the show! One of the very few podcast I actually get excited to listen too. Second, I've been having an ejection issue with my AR where when fired the bolt will stay in the forward position and it's almost like the round is stuck in the chamber, even an unfired round and a dummy round get stuck to the point I have to take a punch hammer to the charging handle to get it out. What are your thoughts? Again love the show and love what yawl do!" Bradley C - Dear WLS With the recent abatement of the NFA tax, and the further conversation surrounding the complete repeal of the NFA, have any 2A space influencers considered the implication of a full repeal, nation wide? As much as many of us in the 2A sphere hoped for it's demise in the BBB, the State level consequences could be detrimental. Let me explain: In the State of Oregon, and I believe there are twelve other States, with the full repeal of the NFA Federally, it would cost us the ability to own, possess, or purchase NFA items. As, at least here in Oregon, they are only able to be in existence, because the NFA is a de facto registry. At this time, Oregon does not have its own requirement to register firearms, but with the implementation of Measure 114 (still tied up in the courts) and the QUEEN Governor having just signed SB 243, the noose is tightening around the firearms owner's neck. Anyway, it is my belief, that the tax was dropped to zero dollars and the NFA maintained to allow these 13 +/- States the ability to keep those NFA items, as ATF maintains their de facto registry. I'm really interested your thoughts and insights on this. Yes Jeremy, I agree with you,

In this timely episode of Restauranttopia, we sit down with Jamie, the CFO of a prominent restaurant group, to unpack the Big Beautiful Bill (BBB) and explore how it directly impacts restaurant owners, CFOs, and operations leaders. As one of the most talked-about pieces of legislation in 2025, the BBB is bringing major changes to restaurant financial planning, labor compliance, and vendor relationships. Jamie provides a clear and insightful breakdown of the new bill's implications—from tax advantages and cost controls to restaurant labor law updates and long-term forecasting. Whether you're a multi-unit restaurant operator, single-store entrepreneur, or foodservice executive, this episode is packed with valuable financial insights that help you stay compliant, competitive, and confident about the road ahead.

On this epsisode of BBB, the boys explore a beloved author who they somehow haven't managed to review until now. Mr. Joe Abercrombie's alternate history/fantasy tale "The Devils" is the subject this time around. Hilarious, gory, and unrepentantly grim and sardonic, Stephen and Mark dive into a world of curses, werewolves, elves, Popes, and, of course, truly flawed and damaged characters. It is a world where the scariest things aren't the summoned Dukes of Hell, but the people doing the summoning.   To guard against any lingering traumas from this darkly funny and brutal story, Stephen and Mark will be sampling a new bourbon whiskey from a local distillery, Geneva Lakes Bourbon Whiskey by Geneva Lakes Distilling & Studio Winery in Lake Geneva, Wisconsin.   Home - Joe Abercrombie Studio Winery

Een nieuwe aflevering van podcast De Stemming, in een week dat er in de Tweede Kamer werd gedebatteerd over de 'ontstane politieke situatie'. Die situatie ontstond nadat vorige week eerst NSC-minister Caspar Veldkamp opstapte, waarna alle andere NSC-bewindslieden volgden. Was dat nu echt nodig, of hadden de coalitiepartijen het toch met elkaar eens kunnen worden over maatregelen om de situatie in Gaza te verbeteren of Israël strenger aan te pakken?  En: hoe nu verder? VVD en BBB besloten samen de overige posten in te vullen en willen vooral vooruit kijken. Demissionair premier Schoof beloofde bescheidenheid van het romp-kabinet, maar kan hij er ook voor zorgen dat het geen campagnestrijd gaat leveren? Hoewel het debat bedoeld was om de politieke situatie te bespreken, werd er ook gesproken over andere zaken. Marleen zag dat Geert Wilders opnieuw de moord op het 17-jarige meisje inzette voor zijn campagne. Hij had daarbij alleen zijn feiten niet op orde, en moest excuses maken. Marleen en Joost duiken ook vast in de verkiezingsprogramma's van de partijen. Een thema is weer terug van weggeweest, merkt Marleen op. En Joost viel door een tip van een collega iets op aan het campagnespotje van de VVD. Benieuwd wat? Luister nu naar de nieuwe aflevering van podcast De Stemming!

The long-awaited "Big Beautiful Bill" has finally passed, and it's reshaping America's construction and housing landscape in ways both expected and surprising. Donnie and Eric dive deep into this massive legislation to unpack what it really means for contractors, developers, homebuyers, and the future of housing affordability.As rain continues to plague construction schedules across the Carolinas, Donnie shares invaluable insights about an unexpected side effect – widespread bathroom ceiling mold caused by malfunctioning vent fans. This practical advice alone could save homeowners thousands in unnecessary roof repairs when the real culprit is a simple damper issue.The heart of the conversation examines the BBB's most impactful provisions. Contractors will celebrate the 100% equipment deduction that's already enabling business expansion, while developers gain advantages through increased Low Income Housing Tax Credits and streamlined permitting processes. The hosts thoughtfully debate whether these benefits will ultimately reach homebuyers or remain primarily with developers.Perhaps most forward-thinking is the provision allowing 529 savings accounts to fund skilled trade education. With associate degrees in construction technology costing just $1,400 per semester at North Carolina tech schools, this opens crucial pathways into trades desperately seeking qualified workers. As Donnie notes, "You have no idea how far you're separated from the rest of the construction population just by being able-bodied, smart, having a valid driver's license, and showing up on time."For those discouraged by the seeming lack of direct assistance for first-time homebuyers, the hosts point listeners toward valuable resources through the North Carolina Housing Finance Agency. The conversation concludes with cautious optimism that while the initial benefits favor developers and production, a stronger construction sector will eventually create more affordable housing options.Ready to navigate the changing construction landscape?

We're joined by journalist and best-selling author, Jonathan Alter, to dig deeper into the latest in Trump's America. Jonathan's most recent piece in Washington Monthly explains how the BBB's enormous funding for ICE will turn America into a police state. With over 75 billion dollars, ICE will now be bigger than all American law enforcement agencies combined. We discuss Trump's authoritarianism, including the ongoing shake down of American universities and law firms. Plus, Texas Republicans are redistricting the state to add 5 new Republican seats to the House. How can Democrats fight back? Can California and New York do the same? Amid all of the depressing news, Alter also brings a message of hope! He deeply believes in the importance of people power. Citizens are learning ways to resist and make their voices heard. And with the coming midterms, he's optimistic that Democrats CAN take back the House.  DONATE to World Central Kitchen and help feed the starving people of Gaza: https://donate.wck.org/ READ Jonathan's piece on ICE in Washington Monthly: https://washingtonmonthly.com/2025/07/14/america-is-now-a-police-state/ CHECK OUT Jonathan's Substack, Old Goats: https://oldgoats.substack.com/ For information on our newest sponsor, Mint Mobile: www.mintmobile.com/franken
