#Live #JonGaunt #RemembranceDay #DdayHero #AlecPenstone #UKPolitics #Starmer #Lammy #Borders #BBCBias 100-year-old D-Day hero Alec Penstone says: "What we fought for was our freedom, but now it's a darn sight worse than when I fought for it. I don't know what the hell we fought for and why we lost so many wonderful men. The country has gone to rack and ruin." Hard to argue with him, isn't it? A land once "fit for heroes" has been turned by successive politicians into a land fit only for zeroes: Borders wide open Sex offenders on the run A country bitterly divided A BBC that lies about Trump A Prime Minister who runs abroad from domestic trouble. If this is how we treat our veterans, what's left of Remembrance Day? Join me, Jon Gaunt as we ask: have our heroes been betrayed – and should we scrap Remembrance Day altogether? #Live #JonGaunt #RemembranceDay #DdayHero #AlecPenstone #UKPolitics #Starmer #Lammy #VeteransBetrayed #Borders #BBCBias #Trump #Britain #LandOfZeroes #Freedom #UKNews veterans Betrayed, Borders, BBC Bias, Trump, Britain, Land of Zeroes, Freedom, UK News Live, Jon Gaunt, Remembrance Day, D-day Hero, Alec Penstone, UK Politics, Starmer, Lammy.

In her latest novel, One Aladdin Two Lamps, the writer Jeanette Winterson takes inspiration from the legendary story of Shahrazad in One Thousand and One Nights. But she calls on the reader to look again at stories we think we know, unpick how fiction works, and have the courage to challenge and change the narrative.The saxophonist and presenter Soweto Kinch will perform his new album, Soundtrack to the Apocalypse, with the London Symphony Orchestra (at the Barbican, London, on Friday 14th November), combining British jazz, hip-hop and orchestral music. This is the finale of his acclaimed trilogy of politically charged, genre-defying works that tell different stories of the past, present and future. The former MP Rory Stewart spent nearly a decade in Britain's most rural constituency, Penrith and Borders, and wrote a column for a local newspaper. In Middleland: Dispatches from the Borders he's collected together these fragmentary moments from rural life and local politics to capture a wide-ranging portrait of life and stories from the Cumbrian countryside.

The Demographic Need: Reframing Migration as an Economic Resource and Dismantling Exclusionary Borders.Gaia Vince discusses how humans are a migratory species that evolved in Africa and colonized the entire globe through movement. Historically, the US and European nations have used policies of brutality and cruelty to restrict movement, with many current border restrictions being recent. Vince highlights the current economic paradox: societies encourage the flow of goods but limit human labor, their largest economic resource, with some economists estimating that removing borders could double global GDP. A critical component of managing migration is investment: financial investment to expand northern cities and social investment in accepting that migrants are not "bad people" and promoting inclusivity. Furthermore, the global north faces a demographic crisis, as most developed nations are not producing enough babies to support their elderly populations, making immigration the necessary solution. 1953

The dynamic and interconnected ways Afghans and Iranians invented their modern selves through literature. Contrary to the presumption that literary nationalism in the Global South emerged through contact with Europe alone, Reading Across Borders: Afghans, Iranians, and Literary Nationalism (University of Texas Press, 2024) demonstrates how the cultural forms of Iran and Afghanistan as nation-states arose from their shared Persian heritage and cross-cultural exchange in the twentieth century. In this book, Aria Fani charts the individuals, institutions, and conversations that made this exchange possible, detailing the dynamic and interconnected ways Afghans and Iranians invented their modern selves through new ideas about literature. Fani illustrates how voluntary and state-funded associations of readers helped formulate and propagate "literature" as a recognizable notion, adapting and changing Persian concepts to fit this modern idea. Focusing on early twentieth-century periodicals with readers in Afghan and Iranian cities and their diaspora, Fani exposes how nationalism intensified—rather than severed—cultural contact among two Persian-speaking societies amidst the diverging and competing demands of their respective nation-states. This interconnected history was ultimately forgotten, shaping many of the cultural disputes between Iran and Afghanistan today. Aria Fani is an associate professor and director of Persian and Iranian Studies at the University of Washington in Seattle. He serves as the current deputy editor of Iranian Studies and is a co-investigator of the Translation Studies Hub at UW. Morteza Hajizadeh is a Ph.D. graduate in English from the University of Auckland in New Zealand. His research interests are Cultural Studies; Critical Theory; Environmental History; Medieval (Intellectual) History; Gothic Studies; 18th and 19th Century British Literature.

...in which we are joined by broadcaster, author, long-distance walker and former MP for Penrith and the Border, Rory Stewart, to discuss his new book, Middleland – Dispatches from the Borders. In a wide-ranging discussion about the 'lost kingdom of Middleland', Dave chats with Rory about long walks through the Lake District and Borderlands, about the joys of post-walk pub stays (warm socks, a book by the fire), and the meditative pace of multi-day rambles. Moving to farming, Rory raises the alarm over a new era of small farm 'clearance', urges caution over rewilding a heritage landscape, and argues that binary thinking is impeding a subsidy regime that would champion nature-based farming. Grappling with a 'Middleland' identity, we consider why the reality of Cumbria – sparsely populated, mountainous, complex – questions so many assumptions at the heart of modern politics, and learn why we should not lose confidence in our National Parks. Facing our quickfire questions, Rory describes his earliest Cumbrian memory (rescue from a snow-blocked A6 aged four), his fondness for Penrith fudge and his love of Striding Edge. Closing on a note of positivity; Rory reflects on the fact that – despite its challenges – Cumbria remains a place in which tens of thousands of people contribute to a place that brings "a type of joy, meaning and happiness that is elusive elsewhere". Rory's new book, Middleland, is out today.
In this episode, we bring in two non-fans of The Hold Steady — Derek and Mark from The Canadian Film Crew and Or Is It podcasts — to give us their first impressions of three THS songs chosen by you, our listeners!Will these tracks land somewhere on the “Mark Cohn–Barenaked Ladies scale”? And how does Spruce Stringbean interpret these lyrical deep dives? You might be surprised by how our guests hear the songs that mean so much to the THS faithful.Then we let Derek and Mark do what they do best — get way in the weeds about movies you've probably never seen. This time, it's the 2011 indie Stuck Between Stations. You can probably guess which song inspired that title.The crew asks the hard-hitting questions:

Check out the collection of fidgets Team Shiny loves! We gotta be able to handle hearing people talk about us, even when it's triggering and hard, because it can ultimately show us where the work is. And maybe you can be an expert on soething without having it yourself (like ADHD) but perhaps it requires a sense of curiosity, empathy, or some kind of introspection that recpognizes your lane, your scope, and your own biases? From anthropology and sociology to X-Men and who is Magneto and Charles Xavier, David and Isabelle meander through what it means to be an ally and also set up some solid recent hyperfixations.---We gotta tolerate hearing people talking about what they think about us, including people who have lots of degrees and expertise, and also know that each person doesn't have the answers. Maybe it has to do with conversations that people have about us without us ADHDers? Then again there are journalists, who don't have expertise but who can report on the data they get. David names that there are good and bad journalists, and there is critical thinking. How much about people's ADHD ‘expertise' includes interpersonal work and understanding about attachment, relationships, your own identity. Like, if you're an expert on ADHD and you're not friends with people who have ADHD outside of your work (if you yourself don't have it)—something to look at? David names that as therapists, we have this debate about multicultural approaches—do you need to have a white therapist to work with white clients, a Black therapist to work with Black therapists? You need to know your lane and your expertise. David's own therapist is not an expert in ADHD. And neither is Isabelle's. They know to ask us questions, can ask “how does this relate to ADHD?” We might be the person with ADHD that helps them better understand that. Allies don't want to get rid of parts of you, they want to help parts of you. An ally is different than a researcher, Isabelle wants to name that you need to be enough of an ally to a topic and be curious. In undergrad, she studied anthropology and archaeology, and it's a blend of super specific science and also lots of educated guessing. She remembers learning about participant observation in anthropology, that just by observing a culture or a group you are impacting the group. It's way more about noticing what your own biases are. David's own background in sociology, the idea of intersectionality. David didn't really think about ADHD or neurodiversity as a culture until college. He's a big comic book fan and he loved the X-Men. They're trying to hide their mutant powers to not be exploited by the government and the X-Men are trying to help these mutants and take them to saving. Charles Xavier and Magneto were portrayed to be iconic people. Magneto was Malcolm X while Charles Xavier was based on Martin Luther King, Jr. It's two different portrayals around protecting yourself—do you get violent and active or passive? Maybe the mutants are a great metaphor for neurodiversity as well as the civil rights war—if you have been marginalized you can have empathy toward other people who are marginalized. It's not so personal, people do things to us that they do to other marginalized groups. It can also signify that we have a culture. It would be if everyone says they have a pile of unfolded clothes that threaten your identity, your pile of mail—-culturally both David and Isabelle are both connected to the plan that they didn't want to leave it there. When we connect about parts of our culture. Isabelle and David so appreciate this conversation. Isabelle names asynchronous processing—she can't just off the cuff rattle off her ideas and also needs time to talk it out, externalize, and think about things beyond the initial moment or conversations. How important it is for us to keep having these conversations. Isabelle wonders if David is like Charles Xavier. He wishes he could be Charles Xavier. Isabelle might be Charles Xavier. Because maybe she loves or identifies with Patrick Stewart so much. So maybe David is Magneto—in the comic books they were best friends, and he was like “they'll never learn, we need to protect our people” whereas as the other is like “don't give in to our aggressive urges.” David needs to shout out: Dungeon Crawler Carl. Not wearing any pants, the cat jumps out of his house trying to get the cat out of the tree, and Carl can then go on an 18 level dungeon crawl and can save the planet earth. The audio book is a treasure, David is a big fan of role playing games, he consumed all seven books in less than three weeks. Isabelle names why cats get stuck in trees, their claws go the other way so they get stuck—but big cats can go backwards. Isabelle mentions an enneagram book that she really appreciates. She was hooked on Borders and loved it as a kid and would keep trying to have someone explain me to me, and one of those books was on the enneagram (which makes David feel like he went to the bathroom during learning fractions and never picked up on it).

Right On Radio takes a sweeping look at world events through an intelligence-focused, faith-informed lens. Host Jeff opens the episode with announcements about his live show and an updated course, then pivots to a big-picture analysis: Is Donald Trump dismantling the globalist Agenda 2030 — or secretly ushering in a new technocratic beast system? Jeff traces the power centers (London's banksters and King Charles), examines Trump's Eurasian/UK tour and U.N. speech, and plays key clips illustrating Trump's positions on AI, bioweapon verification, migration, energy, and climate policy. The episode explores geopolitical deals with Middle Eastern states, rare earth strategies, weapons sales, and how major corporations are being positioned as winners in the new order. Jeff also contrasts Trump's “sovereign nations” messaging with the U.N./WEF Sustainable Development Goals (the 17 goals) and asks whether Trump is fulfilling or subverting those aims. Historical conspiratorial threads (the British imperial role, Rockefeller/Masonic predictions, and an 1871 letter describing manufactured world wars) are used to situate present-day tensions, while religious prophecy and warnings about a false “light” and Luciferian deception provide the spiritual framing. The show concludes with reflections on where an AI-driven, biometric, and digital-dollar economy might lead, and a call for listeners to love God and neighbor while staying informed.

Want to reach out to us? Want to leave a comment or review? Want to give us a suggestion or berate Anthony? Send us a text by clicking this link!The feed wants your anger, your attention, and your time. We want your freedom. This conversation pulls on three threads that are fraying daily life: algorithmic outrage that keeps us at war with each other, border and immigration policies that dissolve shared identity, and a Church culture that often speaks like a press office instead of a lighthouse. We map how these forces reinforce one another, why everything feels accelerated, and what a sane response looks like for regular people who want to raise a family, keep the faith, and serve the common good.We start with social media design—why rage travels faster than reason, how bots and incentives escalate conflict, and what that does to our minds. Then we move to culture and sovereignty, asking what it takes for a nation to remain a home rather than a marketplace of strangers. Hospitality matters, but it only works when norms, language, and numbers protect the host culture. Without those guardrails, citizens become spectators to their own dissolution, and power centralizes by default.From there, we pivot to the heart of renewal: worship and formation. When liturgy is treated as optional and doctrine as flexible, the faithful lose orientation. But when families and parishes return to practices that honor God first—prayer, sacraments, study, and service—clarity returns. That clarity doesn't erase political debate; it orders it. Borders and tradition can be defended without hatred. The stranger can be loved without surrendering the home. Truth can be spoken without trading charity for clout.If you're tired of performative outrage and want a path you can live with for decades, this is your map: choose intentional media habits, rebuild community where you stand, and put first things first.

In this episode of Now I Get It, I dive into the hidden logic behind borders—why they exist where they do, and how geography quietly shapes the course of world history. From the frozen plains of Russia to the mountains of Ukraine, I explore how natural barriers like rivers, lakes, and mountain ranges determine a nation's defensibility—and how the absence of these barriers has fueled centuries of conquest, paranoia, and power struggles.We'll unpack how historical trauma and geography combine to drive geopolitical decisions, often leading nations to create the very dangers they fear most. Using Russia's ongoing conflict with Ukraine as a case study, I explore how geography's invisible hand still dictates modern strategy, politics, and security—and how the destruction of natural defenses like wetlands may have left Europe more vulnerable than ever before.In this episode, you will learn:(00:45) Why geography—and not just politics—defines how nations form and defend themselves(02:30) The contrast between Europe's natural borders and Asia's open expanses—and why it matters(03:40) How Russia's fear of invasion is rooted in centuries of trauma and geography(05:10) Why Putin's war in Ukraine is both strategic and self-defeating(06:45) The hidden value of wetlands and natural barriers in modern defense(07:50) How fear-driven decisions create the very threats nations seek to avoidLet's connect!linktr.ee/drprandy Hosted on Acast.

The Ninth Circuit revisits a challenge to Trump's 2018 troop deployment at the southern border, NOAA warns of a dry La Niña winter for SoCal, and the federal shutdown drags on past 22 days with a November 1 showdown looming. Politics, weather, and Washington — all heating up.
She starts with tape from the field, not the spreadsheet. Listening to enterprise sales calls, Amy Foo heard customers whose usage rose and fell with seasons. Fixed per-seat pricing “wasn't quite hitting the mark,” she tells us, so she piloted a pooled-seat model that flexed monthly within an annual commitment—turning smaller clips into “one to five million” deals and lifting revenue “six to seven times per customer,” she tells us.That instinct—to meet the customer where they are—threads through her journey. Early at Zendesk, she was “employee number one in the region,” handling FP&A, accounting, taxes, and team-building as the business scaled, she tells us. Trust won her a dual path: SVP of Global Finance Operations (deal desk, billings, shared services) and APAC managing director, aligning teams across seven countries, she tells us. Mentors' unvarnished feedback helped her shed imposter syndrome and lead without geographic ceilings.Today at Ignition, she reduces complexity to a few levers—ARR, payments volume, cash flow—and aligns accordingly, she tells us. She monitors top-of-funnel quality and pipeline coverage daily to steer marketing spend and sales motions, she tells us. On pricing, she watches what customers pay and repackages value by segment, she tells us. She leads with customer insight, she tells us.As for AI, she calls it “not a magic pill,” advocating first for AI built into existing vendors, then new tools where capabilities are missing, she tells us. Finance, after all, is “about narrative and conviction”—numbers that move people to act, she tells us.
This bonus episode features the recording of a special online meditation fundraiser hosted by Better Burma in partnership with Vipassana Hawaii. The event combined meditation, reflection, and stories from the ground in Myanmar, highlighting how monasteries and nunneries have become lifelines—providing shelter, food, and education for displaced families amid crisis. Mora, who leads our monastic support team, shares firsthand accounts of resilience and need, while Vipassana Hawaii teachers guide practice and reflection. Donation links mentioned in the session remain active, with contributions continuing to sustain these monastic communities and their vital humanitarian role.
Ben Ennis and Brent Gunning kick off the final hour with 1992 World Series MVP Pat Borders, discussing his thoughts on Game 7 and the team's season. Borders shares insights on similarities between this team and the '92 squad, the city's energy, and which teammate might famously ride a horse shirtless in Toronto. They then chat with Blue Jays legend Buck Martinez about how the 2025 team reached the World Series, Springer's memorable home run, and John Schneider's performance. Finally, MLB Network's Adnan Virk (22:13) joins to reflect on the team's journey and their potential fan appeal, while crediting the front office. Ben and Brent wrap up the day's highlights!The views and opinions expressed in this podcast are those of the hosts and guests and do not necessarily reflect the position of Rogers Sports & Media or any affiliate.

What if you don't?In this episode, I revisit my very first guest interview, where my guest came to me with the question: “How can I do international pricing more intentionally?”We explored when to differentiate prices, what tools can help, and whether you even need to vary prices at all.Originally recorded in 2019, I've come back to it with a fresh perspective, adding new insights and filling in a few important gaps to make it more relevant today.*****Hi I'm Janene, Let's Take the Next Step TogetherPricing can feel confusing or overwhelming — and that's completely normal.

In The Smart Property Investment Show, host Liam Garman continues his conversation with Kev Tran from Kev Tran Group, unpacking the complexities of Australian property investment and imparting strategies to maximise returns across states. Tran highlights navigating state-by-state regulations, explaining differences in cooling-off periods and forfeiture rules, and why understanding these nuances is crucial for cross-border investing. He stresses the importance of negotiation and off-market access, sharing practical tips like building rapport with agents and offering flexible terms, such as rent-back options, to secure better deals. Market cycles and timing are also discussed, as some states grow strongly while others lag, making informed short- and long-term decisions essential. The duo emphasises the importance of discipline and a clear strategy, helping investors stay focused on their goals and avoid impulsive moves. Throughout the episode, the co-hosts' insights provide a roadmap covering legal awareness, negotiation tactics, team building, and strategic focus – all essential for sustainable success in real estate.

In this eye-opening episode, Lee exposes the alarming rollout of the European Union's new biometric entry-exit system — a digital checkpoint that captures citizens' fingerprints and facial scans every time they cross a border. What's being sold as “security and convenience” is fast becoming a digital prison, with parallels in the UK's new “Right to Rent” and “Right to Work” IDs, and even in America's Real ID program. From South Carolina's Senate Bill 731 to the quiet digitization of everyday freedoms, Lee breaks down how global digital ID systems are transforming citizens into monitored subjects — all under the guise of safety and modernization.
In this wide-ranging episode, Tara exposes the creeping global surveillance and political theater shaping our world. From the EU's new biometric exit-entry system that treats travelers like criminals, to the UK and U.S. moving toward digital IDs, Tara explores how personal freedom is increasingly tied to compliance. He also dives into the timing of Trump's COVID booster amid international studies linking mRNA vaccines to serious health risks, and how U.S. officials allegedly manipulate safety data.

The media is filled with contradictory information about the conflict in the Middle East. How can we know what's true? In this interview, Pastor Allen Jackson talks with Ronnie Simon, a Jewish historian and guide, about the battles raging today. Ronnie shares the history of Israel, Gaza, and Palestine, as well as the truth about the terrorist organization Hamas. He deconstructs the claims the media make, like accusations of genocide and ethnic cleansing. He also shares some good news from Israel about the success of their desalination plants and their dedication to rescuing every hostage. “It's an important Jewish principle: You don't leave anybody behind,” Ronnie said. “You do whatever you can to bring everybody home. As long as it will take, we will not spare any effort.” Let's persist in praying for the peace of Jerusalem.
