OnZoom. Part of our membership in Kae Wagner's Bold Author Network. Kae has beenworking with self-published authors weekly, transforming, teaching, elevating,and inspiring. I was inspired by Natalie as well. Her authorship of achildren's book that I read to my grandchildren at Halloween. ‘The BumpyPumpkin.' First time ever, “Grandpa, read it again.” Two weeks ago, we chattedon Zoom. Her depth, brilliance, and day job, versatility, and best-selling,award-winning children's book author. And I didn't expect it; Natalie has 20years of experience in health care. I love cardiologists. Keeps me ticking.She's an exec at a prominent cardiac center. Works to broadly improve cardiaccare. She ran the operating room, too. And she created a character inspired byher real-life farm companion, 'Goat on the Go' Series. Natalie is aboutfriendship, resilience, and emotional growth in children. It's in her words andspirit. Her father encouraged her to become a nurse. Her mother is a nurse. Andwith that energy, she became. But she always wanted to write a children's book.She exudes that caring. As I wound down, I asked her who she'd like to spend aday with. “Meryl Streep” I told her I did that already and was in a movie withMeryl. Our bonds sealed. To be continued.” Calvi

“We put the money where Europe's priorities are. Many people may think defence is about tanks. No, defence is also about energy security. It is about social cohesion and territorial cohesion. That's the European brand. So we need to act in all these areas in order to ensure peace, security, stability on our continent.” Peter Macjob speaks to Nadia Calviño, President of the European Investment Bank, about Europe's shifting priorities, and the growing urgency around defence and security. With wars, energy shocks and tariffs reshaping the global economy, Europe is being forced to rethink its position in a changing world. The EIB is the EU's lending arm, mobilising billions of euros to finance infrastructure, energy and technology projects across Europe and the developing world. Calviño, a former Spanish finance minister, took on the role in 2024 at a time of war in Ukraine, rising geopolitical tensions and growing strain on global trade.

A dead banker under Blackfriars Bridge.But that version is far too small.In this episode of Hidden Forces in History, we investigate how the Vatican built something much bigger than a scandal: a sovereign financial fortress. From the forged Donation of Constantine, to the Papal States, to the Medici partnership, to the creation of the Institute for the Works of Religion (IOR), to Banco Ambrosiano, Roberto Calvi, and the modern London property scandal, this is the deeper story of how sacred authority became a shield for financial power.The Vatican did not just collect donations.It built a system of sovereignty, secrecy, immunity, and institutional opacity that no normal bank could ever enjoy.This is the story of how a church with no army, no navy, and no normal tax base became one of the most protected financial institutions in the world.CHAPTERS:00:00 The scandal story is too small01:26 Inside the Vatican Bank02:40 The forged document that built church power04:16 How the church outsourced lending and kept control05:45 The Medici and the Vatican money machine07:50 Mussolini, the Lateran Treaty, and the Vatican payout09:23 Bernardino Nogara and the birth of the modern Vatican fortune12:06 Why World War II made the Vatican Bank untouchable14:55 Sindona, P2, Calvi, and Banco Ambrosiano22:14 John Paul I and the questions that never went away24:36 Modern reform, fraud, and the London property scandal30:05 What the Vatican actually owns32:12 The Vatican playbook: sovereignty, secrecy, and immunity35:00 Can the Vatican ever become transparent?

Insights from the EIB Group Forum 2026: EIB President Nadia Calviño joins global leaders to discuss security, space, and why dignity is our best defence. The EIB Group Forum 2026, held in the heart of Luxembourg, served as a powerful reminder that Europe is no longer taking its security, energy, or democratic values for granted. Under the theme "A Strong Europe in a Changing World," a stellar lineup of speakers and an international audience explored how investment and individual action are shaping a resilient future. In this video you'll find: 00:00 Nadia Calviño, President of the European Investment Bank (EIB), on the EIB's mission, European resilience, and the main levers of competitiveness. 16.40 Nikolai Coster-Waldau, Actor and UNDP Goodwill Ambassador on climate optimism, the UNDP's mission, and the strength of European unity in Greenland. 26.46 Oleksandra Matviichuk, Nobel Peace Prize Winner & Chair of the Center for Civil Liberties; on the resistance in Ukraine, the power of ordinary people, and reclaiming European values. 42.00 Sławosz Uznański-Wiśniewski, ESA Astronaut from Poland, on the "European story," space as critical infrastructure, and the Space Tech EU funding program. The EIB: Financing the European Success Story Nadia Calviño, President of the European Investment Bank (EIB), describes the institution as one of the EU's greatest success stories. By leveraging capital from Member States, the EIB transforms infrastructure, from highways and hospitals to high-risk innovative startups in the space sector. President Calviño emphasised that 2026 is the ‘year of competitiveness' focusing on market integration and simplification to help European companies remain resilient against global shocks. An Optimist's Guide to Humanity Actor and UNDP Goodwill Ambassador Nikolai Coster-Waldau brought a message of hope, urging a shift away from "doom and gloom" climate communication that creates division. Through his project, An Optimist's Guide to the Planet, he explores human innovation and the common values that connect us. He emphasised that whilst the planet will survive, our focus must remain on protecting one another through unity and solidarity. Dignity as Action: The Frontline of Freedom In a deeply moving speech, Nobel laureate Oleksandra Matviichuk reminded the forum that "ordinary people can change history". Detailing the harrowing reality of the invasion in Ukraine, she argued that the collapse of the international order was preceded by an ethical crisis. For Matviichuk, the fight for Ukraine is a fight for the very idea of freedom, asserting that "dignity is action" and that Europe must move beyond being a "consumer of democracy" to becoming its fierce protector. From Outer Space to Strategic Sovereignty Polish astronaut Sławosz Uznański-Wiśniewski shared his journey as a student in Łódź to the International Space Station: a path only made possible by Poland's EU accession and the Erasmus programme. He highlighted that space is not just for dreamers; it is "invisible, critical infrastructure" that synchronises power grids and stock markets. Through the €500 million Space Tech EU program, the EIB and ESA are now funding the next generation of European technological champions. https://www.undp.org/goodwill-ambassadors/nikolaj-coster-waldau https://www.esa.int/Science_Exploration/Human_and_Robotic_Exploration/Astronauts/Slawosz_Uznanski-Wisniewski https://www.nobelprize.org/events/nobel-prize-dialogue/brussels2024/panellists/oleksandra-matviichuk/#:~:text=Oleksandra%20Matviichuk%20is%20a%20human,the%202022%20Nobel%20Peace%20Prize.

La presidenta del Banco Europeo de Inversiones (BEI), Nadia Calviño, ha defendido en Las Mañanas de RNE, desde la Conferencia de Seguridad de Múnich, que la Unión Europea ha entendido en el último año que debe reforzar su autonomía estratégica ante el giro geopolítico global. "Nos hemos dado cuenta de que no podemos depender totalmente para la defensa de Estados Unidos ni depender totalmente de la tecnología de China", ha señalado, subrayando que las alianzas tradicionales han cambiado y que Europa ha tenido que reaccionar "con determinación y unidad". A su juicio, la relación transatlántica ha seguido siendo fundamental, pero la UE ha tenido que diversificar socios y construir nuevas alianzas, como los acuerdos con Mercosur o India.Calviño ha asegurado que, desde su llegada al BEI, ha impulsado un aumento significativo de la financiación en seguridad y defensa: "Hemos multiplicado por cuatro esa financiación desde que llegué y ya hemos alcanzado el objetivo del 5%". Ha defendido que apoyar a Ucrania ha sido “fundamental para la protección de las fronteras europeas” y ha insistido en que la seguridad no solo ha dependido de tanques o drones, sino también de la seguridad energética, la innovación y la competitividad industrial. "Europa es una superpotencia", ha afirmado, reivindicando el potencial europeo en tecnologías verdes, salud, computación cuántica o espacio.En materia climática, la presidenta del BEI ha considerado “un error” que Estados Unidos haya renunciado a liderar las tecnologías limpias y ha advertido de que la realidad del cambio climático "se ha impuesto". "Cada euro que invirtamos en prevención y adaptación nos ahorra entre cinco y siete euros en daños", ha explicado, tras recordar las recientes riadas e incendios en España y Portugal. Calviño ha defendido que la transición ecológica no solo ha sido "lo correcto para las generaciones futuras", sino también "lo más inteligente para la economía de hoy", y ha confiado en que foros como Múnich hayan servido para "tender puentes" en un contexto internacional marcado por la tensión.Escuchar audio

It is 1793 and France has declared war on Britain, meaning that the British navy must serve as both sword and shield to Europe. Horatio Nelson is at this time a slim and sickly 34 year old captain who nevertheless burns with the zeal to serve his king and country, and has recently taken over command of the impressive Agamemnon. Meanwhile, the British navy has taken Toulon by the summer of 1793 through diplomatic means - its foothold in the Mediterranean - but is struggling to hold it. Upon arriving in the city Nelson is shocked to find it besieged by the French, under the leadership of one Napoleon Bonaparte - the first time that these two titanic rivals of history will brush shoulders, but not the last. At last the city falls to the French, and the British must go in search of another Mediterranean base. They settle upon Corsica - Bonaparte's homeland. It is there, on the morning of the 12th of July that during the siege of Calvi that Nelson is struck in the face by a spray of stone and shrapnel, severely blinding his left eye forever more. Will this critical injury prematurely end his promising career? Just as a great armada of Spanish and French ships gathers on the horizon, heralding the coming one of history's bloodiest naval battles... Join Dominic and Tom as they discuss the Siege of Toulon, Nelson's heroic early forays into the Mediterranean, and the dramatic aftermath of his first near fatal injury. _______ LIVE SHOWS *The Rest Is History LIVE in the U.S.A.* If you live in the States, we've got some great news: Tom and Dominic will be performing throughout America in November, with shows in San Francisco, L.A., Chicago, Philadelphia, Washington D.C., Boston and New York.
