Podcasts about Borger

Vi taler ofte om, hvordan techgiganterne forandrer os. Om skærme, der fragmenterer vores fællesskaber, om børn, der skal beskyttes mod det digitale, og om kunstig intelligens, der måske snart kommer til at ændre alt. Men samtidig har vi i Danmark digitaliseret stort set hele mødet mellem borger og stat. I dag er det næsten umuligt at være borger uden MitID. Skal du søge boligstøtte, beregne skat, melde sygdom, få hjælp til et handicap eller registrere et nyfødt barn, foregår det digitalt. Men hvad betyder det egentlig, at vi er blevet borgere i et digitaliseret samfund? For digitaliseringen skaber ikke bare nye måder at kommunikere med det offentlige på. Den skaber også nye typer borgere, nye former for ansvar - og nye opgaver for staten. Udsyn spørger docent på Københavns Professionshøjskole Anja Svejgaard Pors, hvilket samfund vi har bygget, og hvordan man egentlig er borger i det. Vært: Kaspar Colling Nielsen.

"If you've got good relationships and you're building alliances around ideas and issues, you can get things done."   This is a special episode only available to our podcast subscribers, which we call The Mini Chief. These are short, sharp highlights from our fabulous guests, where you get a 5 to 10 minute snapshot from their full episode. This Mini Chief episode features David Borger, Executive Director for Business Western Sydney and former NSW Politician. His full episode is titled Building alliances with your enemies, finding your executive courage, and championing legacy projects. You can find the full audio and show notes here:

Last month, our colleagues Kees de Wit and Tom van Disseldorp travelled to Sorrento, Italy, at the invitation of Objectway for OWIN26. During this multi-day event, they engaged with senior leaders from across the European financial services industry on the future of operating models, partnerships, and innovation. In this episode, host Tom van Disseldorp speaks with Karl de Borger (Head of Sales and Relationship Management at KBC Securities Services), Thomas de Nil (Head of Savings and Investments at vdk bank), and Kurt Vanhee (CEO Continental Europe at Objectway) about what it takes to build successful partnerships in an increasingly complex financial ecosystem. Together, they discuss why trust and accountability are becoming increasingly important in partner ecosystems, how banks and wealth managers are dealing with growing complexity behind the scenes, and what changing client expectations mean for the future of the industry. They also reflect on consolidation in the market, the rise of AI-driven operations, and why technology should ultimately create more space for personal client relationships rather than less.   *** Leaders in Finance is made possible by the support of EY, Mogelijk Vastgoedfinancieringen, and Lepaya.

In the 1920s, Borger, Texas rapidly transformed from a tent city into a lawless, chaotic town of 45,000 residents within months. It was characterized by widespread crime, corruption, prostitution, and violence, leading to a 1929 imposition of martial law by Governor Dan Moody after the murder of a district attorney.

Author Joe Pappalardo unpacks Boomtown, the true story of Borger, Texas, where an oil rush quickly gave way to corruption and violence. Just a year after it was founded, the town became a haven for bootleggers, gamblers and organized crime. Pappalardo explains how the chaos drew national attention and ultimately brought in legendary Texas Ranger Frank Hamer.

"I remember being a young bloke as Lord Mayor and I was almost reticent to ask my small team to do the job. I felt guilty. Over time I realised that delegating is actually giving people opportunities." In this episode of The Inner Chief podcast, I speak to David Borger, Executive Director for Business Western Sydney and former NSW Politician, on Building alliances with your enemies, finding your executive courage, and championing legacy projects.

The true story of the corrupt and violent town of Borger, Texas in 1927―and the legendary Texas Ranger tasked with taming it.Just a year after the town of Borger, Texas was founded, the press called it "the wickedest in the state" for good reason. The town, sprung into existence overnight to support the oilfields, was a second chance for many residents but had also become a lawless haven for bootleggers, pimps and gamblers, run by a crooked city hall.That environment attracts some of the most unsavory characters in prohibition America, including a gang of murderous bank robbers who head into Borger to spend their money on booze, gambling and prostitutes. In the span of weeks, the gang kills three law enforcement officers, bringing the worst heat imaginable: legendary Texas Ranger Captain Frank Hamer, years before he will lead the 1934 posse that tracked down and killed criminals Bonnie Parker and Clyde Barrow. His arrival threatens to break even this hardest boomtown in America―if it doesn't kill him first.What follows is one of the most thrilling and violent untold stories from the era of gangsters, lawmen and vice.

In het holst van de nacht klinkt een explosie. Drie mannen stelen de gouden helm van Coțofenești uit het Drents Museum in Assen. Een jaar later is het topstuk nog steeds spoorloos. „De verdachten beroepen zich op hun zwijgrecht”, zegt verslaggever Bas van Sluis in een nieuwe aflevering van onze misdaadpodcast Radio Ramkraak. Heb je een tip voor de redactie van Radio Ramkraak? Mail dan naar podcast@dvhn.nl of podcast@lc.nl. Het is dit weekend precies een jaar geleden dat Assen wakker schrikt van een knal die wereldnieuws wordt. In de nacht van 24 op 25 januari blazen drie mannen een zijdeur van het Drents Museum op. De inbrekers stelen enkele kostbare Roemeense kunstschatten, waaronder de gouden helm van Co?ofene?ti. Het pronkstuk van de tentoonstelling Dacia, rijk van goud en zilver. De roof duurt nauwelijks drie minuten. „Ze kruipen door een gat dat is ontstaan door de explosie naar binnen en staan meteen in de expositieruimte,” vertelt Bas. De mannen beginnen als waanzinnigen met voorhamers op de vitrines te beuken. De vitrine met de helm breekt na twee slagen. De dieven nemen ook drie gouden armbanden mee. Alles verdwijnt in een sporttas. De beveiliging faalt op cruciale punten. „Een mistmachine die inbrekers met melkwitte rook het zicht moet ontnemen werkt niet naar behoren”, vertelt Bas. Na de kraak vluchten de daders in een gestolen Volkswagen, die even later brandend wordt teruggevonden bij Rolde. Ze stappen over in een opvallende gele Peugeot en rijden naar een vakantiepark bij Borger. Vier dagen later worden de twee hoofdverdachten opgepakt, het zijn Douglas Chesley W. en Bernhard Z. Later wordt ook Jan B. aangehouden. De zaak wordt in april inhoudelijk behandeld. Het Openbaar Ministerie heeft volgens Bas een sterke zaak. „Er ligt echt een overdaad aan bewijsmateriaal.” Het grootste mysterie blijft tot nu toe onopgelost: Waar is de gouden helm? De Roemeense kunstschatten zijn nog altijd spoorloos. „Voor Roemenië is die helm hetzelfde als onze Nachtwacht”, weet Bas. In de podcast schetst Bas meerdere mogelijke scenario's voor wat er gebeurd kan zijn met de kunstschatten.

In this episode of The Aesthetic Doctor, Dr. Borger breaks down the most effective, science-backed aesthetic treatments for women in their 40s who want to age with confidence and intention. As collagen production slows and facial structure begins to shift, Dr. Borger explains why this decade is less about chasing trends and more about supporting skin quality, expression, and long-term health. She walks listeners through the five treatment categories that make the biggest impact—neuromodulators, skin-quality lasers, midface and under-eye support, collagen-stimulating treatments, and a strategic skincare routine—while emphasizing natural, elegant results.   This episode empowers women to make informed, personalized decisions about their aesthetic care by focusing on consistency, safety, and subtlety rather than overcorrection. Dr. Borger also highlights the importance of pairing in-office treatments with healthy lifestyle habits to enhance results and longevity. Whether you're just beginning your aesthetic journey or refining your approach in your 40s, this episode offers a clear, thoughtful framework for looking refreshed, vibrant, and authentically you.   Dr. Judith Borger Links: www.theaestheticdoctor.com www.instagram.com/doctorborger

Crazy Wisdom: Read the notes at at podcastnotes.org. Don't forget to subscribe for free to our newsletter, the top 10 ideas of the week, every Monday --------- In this episode of the Crazy Wisdom Podcast, host Stewart Alsop speaks with Aaron Borger, founder and CEO of Orbital Robotics, about the emerging world of space robotics and satellite capture technology. The conversation covers a fascinating range of topics including Borger's early experience launching AI-controlled robotic arms to space as a student, his work at Blue Origin developing lunar lander software, and how his company is developing robots that can capture other spacecraft for refueling, repair, and debris removal. They discuss the technical challenges of operating in space - from radiation hardening electronics to dealing with tumbling satellites - as well as the broader implications for the space economy, from preventing the Kessler effect to building space-based recycling facilities and mining lunar ice for rocket fuel. You can find more about Aaron Borger's work at Orbital Robots and follow him on LinkedIn for updates on upcoming missions and demos. Check out this GPT we trained on the conversationTimestamps00:00 Introduction to orbital robotics, satellite capture, and why sensing and perception matter in space 05:00 The Kessler Effect, cascading collisions, and why space debris is an economic problem before it is an existential one 10:00 From debris removal to orbital recycling and the idea of turning junk into infrastructure 15:00 Long-term vision of space factories, lunar ice, and refueling satellites to bootstrap a lunar economy 20:00 Satellite upgrading, servicing live spacecraft, and expanding today's narrow space economy 25:00 Costs of collision avoidance, ISS maneuvers, and making debris capture economically viable 30:00 Early experiments with AI-controlled robotic arms, suborbital launches, and reinforcement learning in microgravity 35:00 Why deterministic AI and provable safety matter more than LLM hype for spacecraft control 40:00 Radiation, single event upsets, and designing space-safe AI systems with bounded behavior 45:00 AI, physics-based world models, and autonomy as the key to scaling space operations 50:00 Manufacturing constraints, space supply chains, and lessons from rocket engine software 55:00 The future of space startups, geopolitics, deterrence, and keeping space usable for humanityKey Insights1. Space Debris Removal as a Growing Economic Opportunity: Aaron Borger explains that orbital debris is becoming a critical problem with approximately 3,000-4,000 defunct satellites among the 15,000 total satellites in orbit. The company is developing robotic arms and AI-controlled spacecraft to capture other satellites for refueling, repair, debris removal, and even space station assembly. The economic case is compelling - it costs about $1 million for the ISS to maneuver around debris, so if their spacecraft can capture and remove multiple pieces of debris for less than that cost per piece, it becomes financially viable while addressing the growing space junk problem.2. Revolutionary AI Safety Methods Enable Space Robotics: Traditional NASA engineers have been reluctant to use AI for spacecraft control due to safety concerns, but Orbital Robotics has developed breakthrough methods combining reinforcement learning with traditional control systems that can mathematically prove the AI will behave safely. Their approach uses physics-based world models rather than pure data-driven learning, ensuring deterministic behavior and bounded operations. This represents a significant advancement over previous AI approaches that couldn't guarantee safe operation in the high-stakes environment of space.3. Vision for Space-Based Manufacturing and Resource Utilization: The long-term vision extends beyond debris removal to creating orbital recycling facilities that can break down captured satellites and rebuild them into new spacecraft using existing materials in orbit. Additionally, the company plans to harvest propellant from lunar ice, splitting it into hydrogen and oxygen for rocket fuel, which could kickstart a lunar economy by providing economic incentives for moon-based operations while supporting the growing satellite constellation infrastructure.4. Unique Space Technology Development Through Student Programs: Borger and his co-founder gained unprecedented experience by launching six AI-controlled robotic arms to space through NASA's student rocket programs while still undergraduates. These missions involved throwing and catching objects in microgravity using deep reinforcement learning trained in simulation and tested on Earth. This hands-on space experience is extremely rare and gave them practical knowledge that informed their current commercial venture.5. Hardware Challenges Require Innovative Engineering Solutions: Space presents unique technical challenges including radiation-induced single event upsets that can reset processors for up to 10 seconds, requiring "passive safe" trajectories that won't cause collisions even during system resets. Unlike traditional space companies that spend $100,000 on radiation-hardened processors, Orbital Robotics uses automotive-grade components made radiation-tolerant through smart software and electrical design, enabling cost-effective operations while maintaining safety.6. Space Manufacturing Supply Chain Constraints: The space industry faces significant manufacturing bottlenecks with 24-week lead times for space-grade components and limited suppliers serving multiple companies simultaneously. This creates challenges for scaling production - Orbital Robotics needs to manufacture 30 robotic arms per year within a few years. They've partnered with manufacturers who previously worked on Blue Origin's rocket engines to address these supply chain limitations and achieve the scale necessary for their ambitious deployment timeline.7. Emerging Space Economy Beyond Communications: While current commercial space activities focus primarily on communications satellites (with SpaceX Starlink holding 60% market share) and Earth observation, new sectors are emerging including AI data centers in space and orbital manufacturing. The convergence of AI, robotics, and space technology is enabling more sophisticated autonomous operations, from predictive maintenance of rocket engines using sensor data to complex orbital maneuvering and satellite servicing that was previously impossible with traditional control methods.

Picture this: the gods have come and gone, dynasties have risen and face-planted, cities have popped up and crumbled, tourists have come, posed, and posted a million thirst traps on Instagram… but the Sphinx is still just sitting there like, “Yeah, I'll wait.”Today we're heading to Giza to talk about the world's most famous stone cat with a people head: the Great Sphinx of Egypt. It's massive, it's mysterious, it's eroding faster than our faith in humanity, and it sits at the crossroads of legit science, wild speculation, and whatever the hell Edgar Cayce was doing.We're going to walk through what the Sphinx actually is, what we think we know about its history, how old it might be, why people keep insisting there's a secret Atlantean library under its paws, what modern tech like ground-penetrating radar and fancy satellite scans are actually showing under the Giza plateau, and why so many folks see Dr. Zahi Hawass as the final boss of “Nothing To See Here, Move Along.”Strap on the sunscreen, adjust your tinfoil nemes, and get ready for Hysteria 51.Special thanks to this week's research sources:Main References Mentioned in the EpisodeLehner, Mark.The Complete Pyramids: Solving the Ancient Mysteries.London: Thames & Hudson, 1997.Hawass, Zahi.The Secrets of the Sphinx: Restoration Past and Present.Cairo: American University in Cairo Press, 1998.Jordan, Paul.Riddles of the Sphinx.New York: New York University Press, 1998.Gauri, K.

Inspired by her own journey of simplification, she shares how decluttering thoughts, refining energy, and aligning self-image can create true peace, confidence, and clarity.

Discover how simplifying your life—just as Dr. Jude has—can become the ultimate form of luxury, allowing your true self to shine fully and unapologetically.   Lux Reclamation Retreat: https://www.theaestheticdoctor.com/Lux-Reclamation-2026-Early-Bird   Dr. Judith Borger Links: www.theaestheticdoctor.com www.instagram.com/doctorborger

Self-image, this internal world, is created by everything we believe about ourselves, including all the stories about who we are, woven into an internal world of considerable complexity, texture and depth, a mental internal tapestry of self.  Dr. Borger shows how self image directly impacts everything we do in this life and how we experience our lives.    “As the wounds of the heart are healed and our self image is healed, everything in our life changes.”    Available on Amazon and everywhere books are sold (http://bit.ly/3FYjbbu)   Dr. Judith Borger Links: www.theaestheticdoctor.com www.instagram.com/doctorborger

John D. Groendyke is Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer of Groendyke Transport, Inc., the fifth-largest motor carrier of bulk commodities serving the continental United States, Canada, and Mexico.It all began on July 12, 1932, when John's father, Harold Groendyke, transported his first load of kerosene from Borger, Texas, to Beaver, Oklahoma. He drove a two-axle Ford truck equipped with a 3,000-gallon tank mounted on a homemade chassis.  That was the start of the tank truck industry and Groendyke Transport Company.John received his Bachelor of Science in Business from Oklahoma State University and his law degree from the University of Oklahoma. He served as a Captain in the U.S. Army, and after a two-year tour of duty, he returned to Enid, Oklahoma, to join the family trucking operation.In 2024 John received a Lifetime Achievement Award from National Tank Truck Carriers.In his oral history interview, John talks about his father building a truck, the effect of technology on the trucking industry, and his extensive car collection on the podcast and oral history website VoicesOfOklahoma.com.

Today's episode is for every high-achieving woman who has ever felt torn between doing all the things and deeply wanting transformation. If that's you, then big hug. You are not alone. I am beyond thrilled to welcome my friend Dr. Judith Borger to the podcast. From the emergency room to empowerment coaching, Judith knows firsthand what it's like to look like you have it all together while feeling that something deeper is calling you. Together, we dive into what happens when women create intentional space for healing, connection, and true growth. In this episode, we explore: Why healing in community is so powerful, and how women rising together has always been the way. How high-achievers can break free from burnout and create a life of intention, not just obligation. The magic of retreats and why stepping away from the daily grind is sometimes the only way to find clarity. The role of nervous system regulation in transformation—because you cannot create lasting change from a state of overwhelm. Why joy is an act of resistance and how reclaiming what lights you up is more important now than ever.
