Podcast appearances and mentions of Benito Mussolini

In today's episode, we're pulling back the veil on a doctrine that may sound loving, but leads to destruction: universalism. We will define and trace the origins of universalism, expose its ancient heretical roots, and contrast it with the early church's faithful witness. It is hard to believe that this critically damaging heresy (false teaching) gets any traction today, especially with recent historical figures Adolf Hitler, Pol Pot, Joseph Stalin, and Mussolini, but it is rearing its deadly head, and we need to talk about it.DONATE You can help support this podcast by clicking our secure PayPal account.

How did FDR become the mediator between Stalin and Churchill at the 1945 conference? Why did Churchill call Yalta the “Hades Riviera”? What was Mussolini's rude nickname for FDR? Anita and William dive into the backstories of Churchill and FDR ahead of their arrival in Yalta, and explore the meetings that led up to the eight days that changed the world, including Churchill's “naughty document” that signed away Eastern Europe to the Soviets...

Une saga palpitante sur les derniers mois de la Seconde Guerre mondiale.Juillet 1944. Tandis qu'à l'Est, l'Armée rouge casse définitivement les reins de la Wehrmacht (opération " Bagration") et qu'à l'Ouest, Américains et Britanniques qui piétinaient depuis le Débarquement, percent enfin les défenses allemandes (opération " Cobra"), les chefs alliés sont optimistes : la guerre en Europe sera finie à Noël. Tous se trompent. Elle durera dix mois encore. Les plus coûteux en vies humaines de tout le conflit. Comment l'Allemagne, dont les forces vives – hommes, matériels, infrastructures industrielles, ressources énergétiques – ont été saignées à blanc, a-t-elle pu tenir aussi longtemps ? Pourquoi Hitler, au contraire de Mussolini ou du dictateur roumain Antonescu, n'a-t-il pas été renversé ? Comment l'Union soviétique, dont plus de 20 millions de citoyens ont été exterminés en trois ans, est-elle parvenue, en quelques mois, à recouvrer le terrain perdu et à planter le drapeau rouge au sommet du Reichstag ? Pourquoi les États-Unis passent-ils pour le pays ayant le plus contribué à la victoire sur l'Allemagne alors que sur les 48 millions de morts provoqués par la guerre en Europe, 73 % sont des Russes (16 millions de civils et 9 millions de combattants soit 15 % de la population de l'URSS) et 0,3% seulement des Américains (140 000 morts) ? Même illusion d'optique s'agissant des accords de Yalta (février 1945) et du prétendu " partage du monde " qui en a résulté. Sait-on que ce n'est pas Roosevelt – trop rapidement taxé de complaisance avec Staline – qui a entériné les visées territoriales soviétiques sur l'Europe centrale, mais le très anticommuniste Churchill, cinq mois plus tôt à Moscou, pour préserver la sphère d'influence britannique sur la Grèce et la Méditerranée orientale ? Après tant d'ouvrages écrits sur la Seconde Guerre mondiale, raconter l'histoire de son achèvement européen était nécessaire pour tordre le cou à beaucoup d'idées reçues. C'est l'objet de ce livre dont l'originalité repose sur les angles morts qu'il a choisi d'éclairer, et la force au rare talent d'écriture de son auteur.L'auteur Eric Branca est notre invité en studioDistribué par Audiomeans.

In the summer of 1944, as the German forces were retreating in northern Italy, a small group of soldiers made a detour to a remote villa in search of Albert Einstein's cousin. Robert Einstein posed no threat to the Nazi regime, but nonetheless they were determined to hunt him down. The tragic events that followed are the basis of a new book by the bestselling author Thomas Harding – he spoke to Rob Attar about an appalling crime and the decades-long hunt for justice that followed. (Ad) Thomas Harding is the author of The Einstein Vendetta: Hitler, Mussolini, and a True Story of Murder (Michael Joseph, 2025).

What is Evil? Different tradition have different ideas. In this compelling Q & A episode of Wisdom of the Sages, Raghunath and Kaustubha explore how the Bhakti tradition understands darkness, Satan, and the concept of evil. Is it a cosmic force? A personal being? Or simply the absence of divine light? Other questions include how to navigate workplace obligations at bars while maintaining spiritual sobriety, and what pure devotional service looks like in today's world. Key Highlights: •⁠  ⁠Evil explained Bhakti-style: darkness isn't a rival force—it's what happens when we turn away from the light •⁠  ⁠What to do when your boss schedules meetings in a bar (spoiler: garlic-soaked pizza may also be involved) •⁠  ⁠Pure devotion demystified: how love shows up in kirtan, service, and yes, even chicken coop assignments •⁠  ⁠Lessons from Mussolini to CBGB's: the slippery slope of bad choices and the art of guarding your inner light •⁠  ⁠It's not about being judgmental—but about choosing clarity over compromise

Italy joined the allies late and wanted a lot of Yugoslavia. The dress rehearsal for Mussolini, Gabriele d'Annunzio, gathers Argonauts and makes a big move. Another seed of the next war planted at the conference in Paris 1919.

Seconda Guerra Mondiale: cronologia degli eventi, protagonisti e approfondimento su cause e conseguenze del conflitto iniziato nel 1939 e concluso nel 1945.

Le Vatican est devenu un pays en 1929 grâce aux Accords du Latran, signés entre l'État italien et le Saint-Siège. Voici une explication claire, étape par étape.1. Avant 1870 : le pape dirige un territoirePendant des siècles, les papes ne sont pas seulement des chefs religieux. Ils dirigent aussi un État : les États pontificaux, un ensemble de territoires situés au centre de l'Italie (dont Rome), que le pape gouverne comme un souverain.2. En 1870 : l'Italie prend RomeAu XIXe siècle, l'Italie cherche à devenir un pays unifié. En 1870, l'armée italienne prend Rome, dernier bastion des États pontificaux. Le pape perd ses territoires et se considère comme prisonnier du Vatican, refusant de reconnaître l'autorité de l'État italien sur Rome. C'est ce qu'on appelle la "question romaine" : un conflit entre l'Italie et le pape.3. En 1929 : accords entre l'Italie et le papePour mettre fin au conflit, le gouvernement italien de Benito Mussolini et le pape Pie XI signent les Accords du Latran, le 11 février 1929. Ces accords disent trois choses essentielles :L'Italie reconnaît l'indépendance du Vatican.Le pape reconnaît l'existence de l'État italien, avec Rome pour capitale.L'État italien donne au pape un territoire souverain d'environ 44 hectares : c'est le Vatican, petit État enclavé dans Rome.4. Le Vatican devient un ÉtatGrâce aux Accords du Latran :Le Vatican a un territoire, une population (environ 800 habitants), une monnaie (l'euro), des ambassades, une police, et même une radio.Il est reconnu comme État souverain selon le droit international.Il est gouverné par le pape, qui a tous les pouvoirs : c'est une théocratie absolue.5. Aujourd'huiLe Vatican est le plus petit État du monde en superficie et en population. Il est membre de certaines organisations internationales, mais pas de l'ONU (où le Saint-Siège a un statut d'observateur). Il reste le centre de l'Église catholique, et le pape y exerce une double autorité : religieuse et politique.En résuméLe Vatican est devenu un pays grâce aux Accords du Latran de 1929.Ces accords ont officiellement créé un État souverain pour le pape.Le Vatican est donc à la fois un pays indépendant et le cœur de l'Église catholique.

Il fascismo, movimento politico fondato da Mussolini, trasformò l'Italia in un regime totalitario dal 1922 al 1943, segnando profondamente la sua storia.

Matt Crawford speaks with Andrew Holter about his book, Going Around: Selected Journalism Murray Kempton. A courtly man of Southern roots, Murray Kempton worked as a labor reporter for the New York Post, won a Pulitzer Prize while at Newsday, and was arrested at the Democratic National Convention in Chicago along the way. He wore three piece suits and polished oxfords and was known for riding his bicycle around New York City while listening to his CD Walkman and smoking a pipe with wild red hair that later turned white. He developed a taste for baroque prose and became, in the words of Robert Silvers, his editor at The New York Review of Books, ''unmatched in his moral insight into the hypocrisies of politics and their consequences for the poor and powerless.'' He went to court proceedings and traffic accidents and funerals and to speeches by people who either were or wanted to be rich and famous. He wrote about everything and anybody—Tonya Harding and Warren Harding, Fidel Castro and Mussolini, Harry Truman and Sal Maglie, St. Francis of Assisi and James Joyce and J. Edgar Hoover. From dispatches from a hardscrabble coal town in Western Maryland, a bus carrying Freedom Riders through Mississippi, an Iowa cornfield with Nikita Krushchev, an encampment of guerrillas in El Salvador, and Moscow at the end of the Soviet Union (these last two assignments filed by a reporter in his 70s), Kempton's concerns and interests were extraordinarily broad. He wrote about subjects from H.L. Mencken to Tupac Shakur; organized labor and McCarthyism; the Civil Rights and Black Power movements; presidential hopefuls and Mafiosi; frauds and failures of all stripes; the “splendors and miseries” of life in New York City.

From tariffs to nationalism, Markowski dismantles the myth that government can—or should—set “fair prices” in a capitalist system. With references to Lenin, Mussolini, and Hayek, this episode is a no-holds-barred indictment of central planning disguised as conservative policy. www.watchdogonwallstreet.com

Luisa Passerini"Artebiografia"Percorsi di artiste tra Italia e AfricaRosenberg & Sellierwww.rosenbergsellier.itQuesto libro riprende il formato del montaggio, già usato da Luisa Passerini in alcuni libri precedenti, come Autoritratto di gruppo (1988; 2008), La fontana della giovinezza (1999), Il mito d'Europa (2002). Quindi il testo è composto di più parti, scritte alcune in prima e altre in terza persona; inoltre comprende in modo portante immagini che intervallano il proprio discorso con quello intrinseco alle parole, costituendo un tutto unico tra registri diversi che si illuminano reciprocamente.L'Esordio ricostruisce il percorso che ha portato l'autrice a considerare l'arte non più soltanto – come in suoi lavori precedenti – in qualità di strumento per rievocare storie di movimenti collettivi e individuali (Conversations on Visual Memory, 2018), ma anche di una vera e propria forma di conoscenza dal punto di vista della storia culturale.Opere d'arte che hanno ispirato l'ipotesi di tale valenza conoscitiva e politica sono quelle di Bertina Lopes e Louise Bourgeois.L'interesse per l'Africa viene assunto come orizzonte complessivo abitato in modi diversi dalle protagoniste del libro, non come base di inclusività identitarie. Sia le artiste sia l'autrice condividono in modi diversi l'appartenenza a culture italiane e contemporaneamente l'attenzione per aspetti delle civiltà africane.I capitoli pari sono dedicati ciascuno a un'artista che ha prestato particolare attenzione ai rapporti tra Italia e Africa: Muna Mussie ha lavorato sulla memoria storica e personale legata all'Eritrea; Alessandra Ferrini sul colonialismo italiano in Africa; Binta Diaw sul corpo nero nel contesto occidentale. I capitoli dispari rievocano le vicende personali dell'autrice nell'Africa orientale, i suoi viaggi alla ricerca delle opere delle artiste studiate, e le sue considerazioni sui percorsi così compiuti.La Postfazione di Bernardo Follini, senior curator della Fondazione Sandretto Re Rebaudengo di Torino, segnala le affinità metodologiche tra l'attività di curatore artistico da una parte e quella di storica della cultura dall'altra, nonché le possibili convergenze personali tra soggetti che svolgono ricerche in campi disciplinari diversi.Luisa Passerini è Emerita di Storia all'Istituto Universitario Europeo di Firenze, ha usato fonti orali, scritte e visuali per lo studio dei soggetti del cambiamento sociale e culturale, dai movimenti di liberazione africani ai movimenti operai, delle donne e degli studenti. Ha indagato il rapporto tra il concetto di identità europea e quello di amore romantico.Tra i suoi libri: La quarta parte (2023); Storie d'amore e d'Europa (2008); Memoria e utopia. Il primato dell'intersoggettività (2003); L'Europa e l'amore (1999); Storie di donne e femministe (1991; nuova ed. 2024); Mussolini immaginario (1991); Autoritratto di gruppo (1988); Torino operaia e fascismo (1984; nuova ed. 2024).IL POSTO DELLE PAROLEascoltare fa pensarewww.ilpostodelleparole.itDiventa un supporter di questo podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/il-posto-delle-parole--1487855/support.

ORIGINALLY RELEASED Feb 12, 2020 In this episode, Jon Greenaway and Brenden Leahy return to the show and join Breht to explore the life, thought, and revolutionary legacy of Antonio Gramsci—the Italian Marxist theorist who redefined how we understand power, ideology, and resistance. We break down Gramsci's key concepts, including cultural hegemony, the role of organic intellectuals, and the importance of building counter-hegemonic institutions. We also examine his fierce opposition to Italian fascism, his imprisonment by Mussolini, and how his prison notebooks continue to offer critical insights for revolutionary struggle today. This is an accessible yet deep dive into one of the most original Marxist thinkers of the 20th century—essential listening for anyone serious about strategy, ideology, and the long war of position.

Ben and Tumaini (who can also be watched in a video version of this episode on NCR's Patreon) found a moment to meet up between the end of a wild Madrid and Jannik Sinner's big comeback in Rome. We discuss the post-apocalyptic vibes of Madrid, including a detailed rundown from Tumaini on how he navigated the power outage early in the event. Along with discussing the big runs by Casper Ruud, Jack Draper, and Aryna Sabalenka, we discuss what's up with Novak Djokovic and Iga Swiatek. Then we shift our attention to Rome, where there've been some unideal renovations to some nice Mussolini legacy work, and where Jannik Sinner could pick up right where he left off.

We can only defeat CLIMATE CHANGE ON PURPOSE and RACIST-WARS-EVERYWHERE-ALL-THE-TIME - if we are a lot weirder than our current crop of criminal clowns. There's a good reason that Philip K. Dick, Octavia Butler, and Ursula Le Guin are so popular. Science fiction can glimpse a kind of moral life so strong it can overthrow the ethno-state. The nonfiction of Mussolini & Hitler & Stalin is sobering. But then you add the Sixth Extinction, and you have an update on government by Laugh-and-Cry-Out-Loud-Cruelty. Trump casts desperate people in their role as stateless migrants so he can demonize them and then kill them as they wander the Earth looking for livable, good weather. You and I are way over here on the horizon, pulling weeds from our little garden. We know we must get some serious personal wildness before the sun goes down.

L'émission 28 minutes du 03/05/2025 Ce samedi, Benjamin Sportouch décrypte l'actualité avec le regard international de nos clubistes : Martial Ze Belinga, économiste et sociologue ; Britta Sandberg, correspondante de “Der Spiegel” à Paris ; Mariam Pirzadeh, rédactrice en chef à France 24 et le dessinateur de presse Nicolas Vadot. Le blocus de Gaza devant la justice internationale : un coup d'épée dans l'eau ?Cette semaine, la Cour internationale de justice s'est réunie à la demande d'une quarantaine d'États et d'organisations internationales, afin de statuer sur le blocus humanitaire imposé par le gouvernement israélien dans la bande de Gaza. Depuis le 2 mars, aucune aide n'est acheminée dans ce territoire où vivent plus de deux millions de Palestiniens. L'État hébreu se justifie en expliquant que l'aide humanitaire est détournée par le Hamas et certains ministres assument que cette stratégie est un moyen pour faire plier l'organisation terroriste palestinienne. Pourtant, le droit humanitaire international, qui régule les effets des conflits armés, l'interdit. Israël n'a pas participé aux audiences de la CIJ dénonçant une “persécution systématique” de sa part. Si les décisions de cette Cour sont juridiquement contraignantes, elle ne dispose pas de moyens pour les faire appliquer. Les Français sont-ils obsédés par leurs jours fériés ?Comme chaque 1er mai, les boulangeries étaient fermées en France mais, cette année, une proposition de loi s'est invitée dans le débat. Des sénateurs proposent que désormais, les boulangers aient le droit de vendre du pain en ce jour national de fête du travail. Les syndicats s'opposent à une telle mesure qui viendrait porter atteinte à une conquête sociale. Cette passe d'armes reflète l'importance des jours fériés en France, dont le maintien ou non revient régulièrement dans le débat public, notamment ceux du mois de mai qui sont nombreux. Certains estiment qu'ils sont une entrave à l'activité au moment où la France a besoin de recettes. D'autres considèrent que ces acquis ne doivent pas être remis en cause, qu'ils soient religieux ou républicains. Nous recevons Katia Boudoyan, directrice de l'Institut du monde arabe de Tourcoing où se tient l'exposition “Ya Rayi ! Une histoire de la musique Raï”, jusqu'au 27 juillet. La musique raï est longtemps restée cantonnée à son berceau, Oran et sa région, en Algérie. Mais, au début des années 1980, cette musique de révolte et de liberté franchit les frontières grâce aux enfants de l'immigration maghrébine et s'installe au sommet du Top 50 en France. Valérie Brochard nous donne des nouvelles de nos chers voisins allemands et leur gestion des déserts médicaux. Cette semaine, certains médecins français ont fait grève pour dénoncer une proposition de loi qui vise à réguler leur installation dans l'objectif de lutter contre les déserts médicaux. En Allemagne, cette régulation est en place depuis le début des années 1990 avec des résultats satisfaisants. Olivier Boucreux décerne le titre d'employé de la semaine à Mark Carney, le nouveau Premier ministre canadien. Candidat du Parti libéral, le même que son prédécesseur, il a remporté l'élection lundi 28 avril face au conservateur Pierre Poilievre, longtemps donné gagnant et associé à Donald Trump. Jean-Mathieu Pernin zappe sur la télévision italienne qui commémore les 80 ans de l'exécution du Duce, Benito Mussolini. Sa mémoire continue d'être honorée, entre vrais nostalgiques du fascisme et amateurs de gadgets plus ou moins décérébrés. Paola Puerari se demande pourquoi nous attendons de trouver l'âme sœur pour avoir des enfants ? Elle s'intéresse à la coparentalité, une nouvelle façon de faire famille. Enfin, ne manquez pas la question très intéressante de David Castello-Lopes : pourquoi utilise-t-on encore de vieilles bandes magnétiques ?28 minutes est le magazine d'actualité d'ARTE, présenté par Élisabeth Quin du lundi au jeudi à 20h05. Renaud Dély est aux commandes de l'émission le vendredi et le samedi. Ce podcast est coproduit par KM et ARTE Radio.

In this episode, we uncover gripping stories from World War II: war dogs on the front lines, brave Indian soldiers in distant lands, and forgotten operations that shaped history.

Has the United States become an autocracy? As Donald Trump marks his 100th day in office, Ellen and Alona are joined by Ruth Ben-Ghiat, scholar of authoritarianism and author of Strongmen: from Mussolini to the present (2020). She also writes a Substack called “Lucid” which focuses on autocracy.Ruth analyses the Trump administration's rapid shift towards authoritarianism. She talks about Trump's personality cult, how strongmen portray machismo and the potential for a female strongman figure. She also discusses how autocrats use corruption, violence and propaganda to stay in power, and how ICE roundups echo the past, resembling a “secret police force”.Ruth answers: can the Democrats can learn anything from Trump? What's the best way to challenge an illiberal president? And how does this end?Plus, Ellen and Alona discuss their bookshelves for this week's “banger or dud”. Hosted on Acast.

In this episode Izi takes us back almost 80 years ago to a dramatic week when two of the world's looming dictators died just two days apart. The first of the two to go was Benito ‘Il Duce' Mussolini, who on April 28th, 1945, attempted to escape Italy with his mistress to Switzerland. They were summarily caught and shot by partisans. The second notorious dictator to die was Adolf Hitler on April 30th, 1945. Their deaths came in the final days of World War II in Europe, as Allied Forces closed in on both Germany and northern Italy. The proximity of their deaths symbolically marked the collapse of the Fascist and Nazi regimes.

Warning: this episode contains discussion of suicide.In August 1944, German soldiers burst into the Florentine villa of Robert Einstein, cousin of the renowned physicist, Albert Einstein. As both a Jew and an Einstein, Robert had already gone into hiding, but his wife, daughters and extended family remained at home. What followed was a 12-hour nightmare that culminated in a brutal war crime.With us is Thomas Harding, author of 'The Einstein Vendetta: Hitler, Mussolini, and a True Story of Murder'. Thomas explains what happened on that fateful day and outlines Robert's arduous, winding path towards some kind of post-war justice.Produced by James Hickmann and edited by Dougal Patmore.Sign up to History Hit for hundreds of hours of original documentaries, with a new release every week and ad-free podcasts.

After last week's episode, “The Emergency Is Here,” we got a lot of emails. And the most common reply was: You really think we'll have midterm elections in 2026? Isn't that naïve?I think we will have midterms. But one reason I think so many people are skeptical of that is they're working with comparisons to other places: Mussolini's Italy, Putin's Russia, Pinochet's Chile.But we don't need to look abroad for parallels; it has happened here.Steven Hahn is a Pulitzer Prize-winning historian at New York University and the author of “Illiberal America: A History.” In this conversation, he walks me through some of the most illiberal periods in American history: Andrew Jackson's Indian Removal Act of 1830, Jim Crow, the Red Scare, Japanese American internment, Operation Wetback. And we discuss how this legacy can help us better understand what's happening right now.This episode contains strong language.Book Recommendations:Democracy in America by Alexis de TocquevilleFrom the War on Poverty to the War on Crime by Elizabeth HintonTroubled Memory by Lawrence N.

The Rich Dickman Show Episode 297 - Tornado Drill Position with hosts Rem, Cody, Ray, and Randy Opening Banter Recap: The episode begins with the hosts returning, with Rem noting that they are "back at it". Rem explains that he finally figured out a camera or account issue from a couple of years ago, realizing his wife had created a new account that bypassed security, making the old one look like a fresh reinstall. He wiped the new account, reverted to the old one, and his stuff, including old backgrounds from about two years ago, reappeared. This brought back some "blast from the past" backgrounds. They confirm the episode number is 297, correcting Randy who thought it was 296. Randy is asked to create a Brady Bunch screen using illustrations or real photos, including one of Ray. Ray mentions he can text a picture he took in front of a gas pump where the average price was $5.90 a gallon, which prompts comments on high gas prices (Rem filled up for $2.79 and was annoyed, Ray was around $2.93) and the general expense of things where Ray is located. Ray then mentions his recent weight loss. Randy asks what Ray's weight was last week, and Ray gives a number (396.8). Cody and Ray guess Ray's current weight before Ray reveals it is 393.4. Cody wins the guess. Ray clarifies he started at 436 pounds, tracking it in the show notes, indicating a loss of 21.8 pounds just on the show. This prompts praise from the others, calling it "good" and "a month's worth of work". Ray mentions building a fence so his dogs can go out without needing to be walked. They briefly discuss protecting wells from zombies like in The Walking Dead. Ohio is described as "weird" and Ray's backyard video is mentioned as everything imagined for Ohio – flat, surprisingly lacking trees initially, although Ray clarifies he has trees, and his side yard is 65 feet long by 25 feet wide with a zipline. Cody mentions his acre is half dead grass, ants, and dirt. Ray notes that living on a hill sucks. Rem talks about growing up on three acres and how fun it was as a kid, not needing to be manicured. Rem mentions dealing with his "little one" digging holes and making mud for monster trucks in his yard and getting annoyed by ants. Cody mentions chilling post-Easter with leftovers and discount candy, referring to the period as the "holy refraction". There's discussion about the Pope dying, mentioning it happened on 4/20 or 4/21, his age (88), and nationality (Argentina). They list the last four Popes they've lived through: John Paul I, John Paul II, Benedict, and Pope Francis. Ray questions why anyone not Catholic would care who the Pope is. Rem argues everyone should care who the "Holy Father" is. They discuss Catholic practices like infallibility, celibacy, and the public recognition of the Pope compared to leaders of other religions. Cody recounts being asked to be godparents for his brother-in-law's child and being told they had to be married in a Catholic church, highlighting what he sees as Catholicism focusing on the "wrong things" and being too "ceremonial" rather than practical. Rem agrees it's all ceremony. Despite critiques of the ceremony, they acknowledge that if Catholics believe Christ died and was resurrected, they can still get to heaven, and that religion in general, like the Ten Commandments, provides a good way of living. The "best atheist on the show" (Rem) states that the lack of religion in society is a big problem because people need it. They critique the commandment "Shall not take the Lord's name in vain," arguing the Constitution supersedes the Ten Commandments. They discuss Cody's religious background in Alabama, describing it as "white people Baptist type stuff". Cody mentions being baptized "like 30 times" by different denominations. He ranks his top three baptism experiences: Nazarene (clinical) is number three, Episcopalian (female officiant) is number two, and Baptist (party, dunked in a creek, held under) is number one. They discuss sourdough starter and Ray's wife's breast milk used for practical purposes like treating pink eye. Ray describes his first experience with a bidet in a fancy restaurant restroom, being scared by the air dry function. They argue about the necessity of bidets vs. manual cleaning in the shower. Rem's Steve's Lava Chicken t-shirt design being rejected by Amazon merch is mentioned. They mention starting a band called Bubblegut and the Poops. The podcast is noted for surpassing the episode count of wrestling shows Dynamite and Nitro. We did the following segments: Thinking with your Dickman This segment features the hosts answering listener questions. Question 1 (from Joanna, treated as John/Joe): "Do I poop too much? I use the restroom an average of three times a day. My boyfriend says a woman shall need to poop once per day, but I'm not convinced. Is there any science to back up this claim? Are there any methods or devices you would recommend to measure my poop volume?". Cody, who has IBS and is a "two time a day type of pooper," validates that pooping multiple times a day is possible. Ray notes his toilet time is typically at least 30 minutes. They recommend getting a bidet for cleanliness, especially with frequent use, but caution against high water pressure to avoid hemorrhoids. They also recommend a seat cushion (like a donut) for long drives. Question 2 (from James, a recently retired actor): "I am a recently retired actor looking for things to do. I am famously starred in a long time running television show... I would like to find some activities that would allow some privacy... suggest some in Denvers.". Cody suggests mini golf and bumper boats as fun activities that might be less conducive to mobs. Rem suggests creating a profile on Fet Life and attending meetups, arguing that people in that lifestyle community are likely to keep secrets to protect themselves. Ray jokingly suggests starting an island. Question 3 (anonymous): "I hate chunky spaghetti sauce. Can you please tell me the best red sauce for pasta that isn't lumpy? Preferably, this advice would come from a true Italian.". Ray, claiming to be the most Italian, suggests Tutori tomato sauce, particularly the canned version, describing it as just sauce, not lumpy. He notes that while it's good as is for the "American people," you can spice it up with garlic, onions, and oregano. Rem talks about making sauce from scratch but acknowledges it's hard to beat store-bought like Prego or Ragu. Cody shares a story of making meatballs and sauce for multiple families using Target brand sauce and pasta, adding baked Italian spicy sausage and basil, and being asked for his "recipe" later. They joke that Americans are easy to please with Italian food. Question 4 (from John): "I want to play hookie from school for a day and need a legitimate excuse. Do you have any ways of getting out of school, but in a way that I can't get caught?". Suggestions include hacking the school's mainframe and changing attendance, getting a contagious illness like mono or pink eye (noting pink eye isn't that bad and a remote doctor's note is easy to get now). An interesting suggestion from Cody is to use microwave beeps to fake an EKG sound during a call. Another suggestion is to get surgery, like for a lazy eye, which could provide extended time off. Cody Reads Copy about Verilife Dispensary in Hillsboro, OH: Cody reads a descriptive piece about a dispensary called Verilife in Hillsboro, Ohio, located between cornfields and Dairy Queens. The copy highlights the "chill energy" and "tactical command" of an employee named Emily, who handles a chaos-inducing attempted robbery ("Tiger King's backup dancer" trying to "jack the stash") by leading the staff in a defensive maneuver before calmly ringing up the customer. The copy concludes that at Verilife, you get "weed," a "story," a "community," and "Emily," and encourages listeners to visit and mention Randy. Dick of the Week: Four nominees are presented for the "Dick of the Week" title. Nominee 1: A 31-year-old woman arrested in Floren Park, New Jersey on April 6, 2025, for DUI and refusing a breath test after driving the wrong way on a turnpike and other roads during a rainstorm. Dash cam footage showed erratic driving, running safety zones and a red light. She showed signs of intoxication, failed field sobriety tests, and had a concealed alcoholic beverage. She faces multiple charges including DUI refusal, reckless driving, careless driving, and lane violations. Nominee 2: A 47-year-old former Hillsboro County, Florida Sheriff's Office deputy and current county schools employee, Brandon Scott Parker, charged after a road rage incident on April 6, 2025, where he allegedly threw a bottle at a driver who honked at him, causing injury (contusion and abrasion). He was charged with the felony of throwing a deadly missile into an occupied conveyance. Nominee 3: A motorcyclist with a passenger involved in a road rage incident in El Cajon, California on April 7, 2025, who fired a gun at a truck. The truck driver was unharmed but found a bullet hole. The suspects fled on the motorcycle, which was found to be stolen, and were later found hiding in a drainage tunnel. Nominee 4: A 24-year-old man from Wisconsin who stole a bag of food from the kitchen of a McDonald's in Elmhurst, Illinois on April 7, 2025, and resisted arrest. Voting results in a tie between the Wrongway DUI driver (Nominee 1), supported by Randy and Rem for violating fundamental societal rules, and the Road rage bottle thrower (Nominee 2), with Cody voting against it specifically because the person was a former cop. Given the tie and the mention of Hillsboro in two different stories (Ohio and Florida), they declare the "Dick of the Week" is the "simulation". Dickman Dilemma: Three hypothetical dilemmas are discussed. Dilemma 1 (from Senson): Choose between having sex with a woman you find ugly once a week for $5,000 a week, or having the hottest woman you can think of peg you for $6,000 a week. Cody chooses the $5,000 option, reasoning he can turn the lights off and find enjoyment. Ray and Rem both choose the $6,000 option, seemingly unbothered by the act of pegging and appreciating the extra money. Dilemma 2: Hire a zombie chef who cooks Michelin star meals, but there's a 0.5% chance he eats your brains for each dish. Do you hire him?. Cody and Rem immediately decline, citing the disgusting nature of zombies and the unacceptable risk of death for a meal, regardless of quality. Ray compares the odds to other risky activities, noting he wouldn't risk his life for a meal but might for a large sum of money, and discusses the illusion of control people feel in everyday risks like driving. Dilemma 3: You get 2 million for a tattoo that forces you to blurt out the truth 10 minutes daily. Do you ink it?. The discussion centers on whether the 10 minutes are predictable and if the person can control what truths are revealed. Rem and Cody both agree they would take the tattoo for $2 million, particularly if the truth-telling was controllable or if it was like the movie Liar Liar, or simply because they believe in honesty and feel they don't have secrets bad enough to lose $2 million over. They consider doing it after retiring or getting divorced to minimize potential negative consequences. What Would Jesus Draw - Jesus at Wrestlemania 41 - Winner Ray: The hosts generate AI images based on the theme "Jesus Christ at Wrestlemania 41 in Las Vegas". Randy's prompt: Jesus Christ of Nazareth fighting the old Undertaker in a Hell in a Cell match on top of the cage. Cody's prompt: Jesus Christ of Nazareth powerbomb Mussolini through the Spanish broadcast desk. Rem's prompt: Jesus Christ of Nazareth hosting Wrestlemania 41 in Las Vegas, yelling at a hostile crowd of internet nerds telling them they're ruining the show with a dialogue bubble saying "You're ruining wrestling for everybody". Ray's prompt: Jesus Christ of Nazareth at Wrestlemania being submitted by Bret Hart's sharpshooter. Ray clarifies the spelling of Hart and that sharpshooter is a submission hold. During judging, Ray's prompt generated an image of Jesus Christ versus Bret Hart (spelled correctly by the AI), showing Jesus in agony, in robes, with the crown of thorns, being put into a submission hold (though not an exact sharpshooter). This image was seen as capturing the spirit and specific details of the prompt very well. Cody's image showed Jesus powerbombing someone who looked like "young Mussolini". Randy's image showed Jesus fighting someone resembling the Undertaker but missing key prompt elements like being on top of the cage. Rem's image showed Jesus yelling at nerds with bad hands and text issues. Ray's image of Jesus vs. Bret Hart was chosen as the winner, with Ray crediting the use of ChatGPT. The episode concludes with hosts mentioning making the Jesus art available on their website, whatwouldjesusdraw.com, plugging their social media and projects, and thanking their listeners.

In 1927, the Hollywood stars (and spouses), Mary Pickford and Douglas Fairbanks, Jr stood outside their California home, arms raised in fascist salute. The photo's caption, referencing the couple's trip to Rome the previous year, informs fans that the couple “greet guests at their beach camp in true Italian style.” How did “America's sweetheart” and her husband, a swashbuckler on and off screen, both patriots who had promoted Liberty bonds following the United States' entry into World War I, come to normalize something like Italian Fascism in its first decade? How did the Italian-born divo, or star, of Hollywood's silent cinema, Rudolph Valentino come to function as foil and counterpart to Benito Mussolini's, the duce, in public opinion in American culture in the 1920s? Winner of the 2019 award for best book in film/media from the American Association for Italian Studies, The Divo and the Duce: Promoting Film Stardom and the Political Leadership in 1920s America (University of California Press, 2019) tells the story of the relationship between celebrity culture, charismatic leadership and national sovereignty as it plays out on both sides of the Atlantic from roughly 1917 to the end of 1933. Giorgio Bertellini asks how two racially othered foreigners, Valentino and Mussolini, became leading figures in America and how these two icons of chauvinist Latin masculinity became public opinion leaders in a nation undergoing a major democratic expansion in terms of gender, equality, social mobility, and political representation. In the post-WWI American climate of nativism, isolationism, consumerism, and the democratic expansion of civic rights and women's suffrage, the divo and the duce became surprising paragons of both authoritarian male power as well as mass appeal. Bringing together star studies, screen studies, political science, Italian Studies, and American Studies Bertellini's study teaches us to think in new ways about cinema, political authority, masculinity, and race in Italian cinema and beyond. Meticulously archived, the author pays especial attention to the mediators between screens and the polity, a vast cast of players including journalists, photographers, ambassadors and other functionaries of state, advertisers, sponsors, and publicity agents, all of whom, on concert, work to promote the “ballyhoo” of the day.

In a recent Oval Office meeting, Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni sat across from Donald Trump as part of a European Union effort to navigate the ongoing trade turbulence. The meeting was cordial enough. Meloni emphasized transatlantic unity and expressed hope for deeper economic collaboration. Trump, however, was unmoved. He praised Meloni personally, but made his stance clear: the U.S. is not in a rush to finalize trade deals. According to him, tariffs are “making the United States rich,” and other countries want deals more than he does.This exchange happened during the 90-day pause in Trump's Liberation Day tariffs — a moment intended, at least in theory, to give global leaders time to negotiate. But what the meeting really signaled is that Trump views this pause as leverage, not compromise. Yes, he did lower EU import tariffs from 20% to 10%, but that move was largely a reaction to bond market jitters. When it comes to negotiating with Europe, he's staying firm.Meloni's presence is notable. She's a controversial figure in Europe — once derided by the American press as a far-right nationalist and compared to Mussolini. But in this moment, she's being positioned as the EU's Trump whisperer. She attended Trump's inauguration. He's reportedly fond of her. He even accepted an invitation to visit Rome. But none of that moved the needle in this meeting.What Trump wants is access to European markets. But in European politics, protectionism isn't just a policy — it's a survival tactic. Leaders there know that anything perceived as selling out local interests could cost them their jobs. Italy, for example, has a trade surplus with the U.S., not because of anything shady, but because Americans genuinely love Italian exports: high-end fashion, food, luxury goods. We buy a lot from them. They don't buy much from us. That's not an imbalance that tariffs alone can fix.So the real question is: what happens next? Trump has all but said he's happy to wait everyone out. That leaves European economies in a holding pattern. It leaves small and medium U.S. businesses — especially those tangled up in international supply chains — in limbo. And it leaves Meloni with the unenviable job of being the friendly face of a negotiation that isn't really moving.Chapters00:00:00 - Intro00:03:13 - Interview with Gabe Fleisher00:23:00 - Update00:23:36 - Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni's Visit00:27:44 - Birthright Citizenship Arguments00:30:05 - FSU Shooting00:31:47 - Interview with Gabe Fleisher, con't00:59:13 - Wrap-up This is a public episode.

Der Begriff Faschismus ist verbunden mit Mussolinis Bewegung in Italien in den 1920er Jahren. Mussolini hat den Begriff geprägt. Für Hitler ein Vorbild, allerdings hat der Nationalsozialismus noch einen beispiellosen Antisemitismus und ein Rassedenken etabliert. Der Faschismus war ultranationalistisch, antiliberal, antimarxistisch und streng nach dem Führerprinzip ausgerichtet. Ein diktatorischer Machtapparat, der seine Ziele gegenüber Andersdenkenden auch mit Gewalt durchsetzt. Kann es wirklich sein, dass so ein Denken heute wieder Anhänger findet? Können oder müssen wir heutige extreme Bewegungen, wie wir sie in Europa oder den USA gerade erleben als faschistisch bezeichnen? Führt uns das die Gefahr durch autokratische Regime deutlicher vor Augen? Kann uns der Begriff helfen, besser zu verstehen und besser zu beschreiben mit welchem Gedankengut wir es zu tun haben und wie man verhindern kann, dass Faschisten unsere Demokratie zerstören? Darüber wollen wir sprechen mit der Rechtsextremismus Expertin Natascha Strobl, mit Prof. Norbert Lammert, der Nordamerika besonders im Blick hat, mit dem italienischen Journalisten Gustav Hofer und mit Dr. Benjamin Höhne, der eine Professur für Europäische Regierungssysteme im Vergleich innehat. Podcast-Tipp: Freiheit DELUXE Stephan Lamby - "Der Werkzeugkasten des Faschismus steht sperrangelweit auf" Bei FREIHEIT DELUXE erzählt Lamby von seinem Leitmotiv „Macht“ und was ihn hierfür journalistisch prägte: Seine Begegnung mit Helmut Kohl, als dieser nicht mehr Kanzler, sondern zerbrechlich und einsam war. Obwohl Lamby einst gegen Kohl demonstrierte, weiß er seine „Strickjackenpolitik“ im Rückblick zu schätzen. Jagoda Marinic und er tasten im Podcast ab, wo ihre Schmerzgrenzen anders verortet sind: Während Lamby noch mit seinem amerikanischen Cousin gemeinsame Nenner findet, auch wenn er Trump-Anhänger ist, sieht Jagoda mehr die Notwendigkeit, Andere an den Tisch zu holen, die dort noch nicht sitzen. Zu seiner Entscheidung, einem rechtskonservativen Nachrichtenportal ein Interview zu geben, befragt sie ihn kritisch und Lamby bezieht Stellung. Schließlich formuliert Stephan Lamby noch ein weiteres journalistisches Leitmotiv: Die Instrumente des Faschismus genau zu beschreiben, um vor ihnen zu warnen, nicht um sie selbst zu nutzen. https://www.ardaudiothek.de/episode/freiheit-deluxe-mit-jagoda-marinic/stephan-lamby-der-werkzeugkasten-des-faschismus-steht-sperrangelweit-auf/hr/14345203/

The Gaslit Nation Media Committee, a watchdog against access journalism and regime propaganda, has developed this essential guide. We urge all members of the media to reject complicity in the erosion of democracy.   The American crisis is a global struggle between democracy and fascism—one that threatens the entire world. Each of us has a role in defending freedom. If you work in media, use this guide to safeguard your integrity, your liberty, and the values we cherish—before it's too late. Doing your job well can save lives and democracy.   1. Don't Bury the Lede: Call It an Illegal Tech-Backed Coup To build trust, stick to the facts. When Trump's administration acts illegally, say it—especially in the headline. Call it what it is: a tech-backed coup that exposes Americans' most sensitive data and replaces federal workers with unsecured A.I. to establish a new surveillance state. 2. Make Private Prison Execs Famous Investigate the financial interests behind Trump's immigration system—expose executives, board members, and their connections. Pursue them with cameras; they can't hide behind profits while lives are ruined and civil liberties eroded. 3. Fascism Needs Ignorance From dismantling the Department of Education to the “War on Woke” in universities, Trump continues delegitimizing education. This isn't about competition with other countries—it's about giving everyone the chance to grow as independent thinkers who reject fascism. 4. Follow the Money Investigate Trump's major donors and their role in Musk's illegal purge of government services. Hold them accountable—ask how they view their investments amid the chaos. Track their contracts and regulatory benefits. 5. Expose National Security Threats Trump removed key military officials who prevented unlawful actions. Without them, who will stop him? Trump holds the nuclear football, cozying up to adversaries, sending bombs to Israel, and threatening wars against Canada and Greenland. Focus on how our adversaries are taking advantage. 6. Kleptowatch Focus on how companies exploit customers through greedflation and Amazon's payola for search visibility. While the Biden administration has much to answer for, the media must spotlight the absence of enforcement of investigations brought by Lina Khan and Tim Wu, leaving corporate kleptocrats unchecked. 7. Media Must Thoroughly Cover Media Journalists must cover media attacks, including blocked access to info and censorship (e.g., Ann Telnaes at WaPo). Report on media ecosystem shifts, address bias, and clarify distinctions between reporting, opinion, and lies. Provide context on media ownership. 8. Draw Historical Parallels Trump, Musk, and allies are enacting policies similar to dictators like Hitler, Mussolini, and Stalin. The media must challenge their unfounded assertions. They are attacking the press and critics, reminiscent of regimes like Pol Pot's and Rwanda's genocide. 9. Trump is Trying to Turn America into an Autocracy: Act Like It Columbia Journalism Review shared 10 essential tips for journalists reporting from autocracies. Share these with your teams, including your company's lawyers—killing big stories and obeying in advance is self-destructive. 10. Shine a Light on Private Prisons The private prison industry needs scrutiny, especially with Trump's lack of oversight. Innocent people are caught in reckless immigration raids as the system grows unchecked. Regular coverage of Guantanamo Bay is crucial due to its history of unlawful detention and Trump's plan for a prison camp there for 30,000 people. 11. Gilead is Here The media has abandoned calling out Trump's toxic masculinity regarding reproductive rights and civil rights. Raise awareness of the deadly consequences for women, including trans women, and all nonwhite people. 12. Access Journalism is Betrayal Fascism's history includes journalists from major outlets becoming "masters of euphemism," (to quote Gareth Jones), downplaying atrocities and broken laws to protect access. History will remember you for doing your job or being bought. Doing your job well can save lives and democracy. 13. Family Members Deserve Special Attention Trump's administration is granting lucrative positions to family members of allies and donors, giving them undue influence over policy. These self-dealing networks must be mapped and exposed. 14. Unmask Voter Suppression Election analysis must address gerrymandering, unfair Senate representation favoring "red states," the Electoral College designed to protect elites, and the gutting of the Voting Rights Act. Don't treat our voter suppression crisis like "horse race" politics. 15. Focus on the 1% Expose extreme wealth inequality—how the 1% dodge taxes and exploit loopholes to preserve their wealth. Put a spotlight on how inequality fuels authoritarianism and is a direct threat to democracy. 16. Cover Protests Highlight actions challenging the White House's destructive crimes. People need to see that citizens care about the laws being broken by Trump's administration and that they're not alone. 17. They're Testing Boundaries: Say It When something is "unprecedented," that means they're testing boundaries, to see what they can get away with. Say it. 18. The Weird Fights Matter Trump renaming the Gulf of Mexico to the Gulf of America may seem "weird," but it's part of the fascist pageantry, like Mussolini's famous eyeliner and Putin's shirtless photos. Look to experts in autocracy to see which stories are being used as a distraction and which stories are important to cover.  An expanded version of the Gaslit Nation Media Guide can be found here: https://www.gaslitnationpod.com/media-guide   For More: Ten Tips for Reporting in an Autocracy American journalists have much to learn from colleagues in countries where democracy has been under siege. https://www.cjr.org/political_press/ten-tips-for-reporting-in-an-autocracy.php   Want to enjoy Gaslit Nation ad-free?

Victor Davis Hanson breaks down this agenda into 10 key themes on today's episode of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words.” Democrats think “ Donald Trump must be considered, as Chris Matthews just said, a Mussolini-like figure. He must be opposed in every aspect. He must be demonized. Everything he does is evil. And by extension, the same is true of Elon Musk.  “ The second thing I've noticed, very quickly, is ICE is wrong. You have to stop ICE from deporting anybody, even if they're a criminal.  “ There should be no cuts. No cuts in the federal government. We have a $1.7 trillion deficit. … We're not going to discuss it. All we know is there should be no layoffs.” Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Once a political heavyweight with dreams of a new Roman Empire, Mussolini's journey from a rebellious socialist youth to the fascist leader of Italy is a story of ego, brutality and ultimately incompetence. In this third instalment of The Leaders series, Dan is joined again by Professor Phillips O'Brien, author of 'The Strategists'. They examine Mussolini's rise to power, the catastrophic decisions that led to Italy's devastation during the Second World War and his ultimate downfall.Produced and edited by Dougal Patmore.We'd love to hear your feedback - you can take part in our podcast survey here: https://insights.historyhit.com/history-hit-podcast-always-on.You can also email the podcast directly at ds.hh@historyhit.com.

In this wild episode of 2 Bears 1 Cave, Bert Kreischer flies solo—well, almost. He's joined by the hilarious Chris Distefano for a chaotic, high-energy conversation that somehow covers everything from colon health to Benito Mussolini. Chris introduces Bert to the Yuka app and starts scanning his diet, exposing just how questionable his food choices really are. They dive into couple's therapy, hair loss in men, and Bert's “child in flip-flops" fashion sense. The two also get deep on career goals in comedy, grinding in the industry, and the "Luigi Mangione of Serbia". But it wouldn't be 2 Bears without some unhinged history talk—Bert and Chris go off on a tangent about the history of currency, Bitcoin, the time Nazis packed Madison Square Garden, and the Axis Powers (because, why not?). They also touch on Florence, Italy, young people thinking Democrats are gay, and how their families keep them grounded. Strap in, grab a drink (or a Yuka-approved snack), and enjoy the show! 2 Bears, 1 Cave Ep. 278 https://tomsegura.com/tour https://www.bertbertbert.com/tour https://store.ymhstudios.com Chapters 00:00:00 - Intro 00:00:32 - A Colon Conversation 00:06:41 - Fun With The Yuka App 00:18:15 - Couple's Therapy 00:20:56 - Male Pattern Perfection 00:29:40 - Flip-Flops & Comedy Aspirations 00:39:29 - Famous Beef 00:43:08 - Grounded By Family & Bitcoin 00:54:18 - Are You Führer About That? 01:00:32 - The Luigi Mangione Of Serbia 01:03:14 - Florence & Fun Facts About Mussolini 01:09:31 - Comedy Hustling 01:18:26 - Podcasts 01:25:05 - Democrats Are Gay Learn more about your ad choices.
