Podcasts about Car

The former soldier in the French army who seized power in his African homeland. The leader of the Central African Republic who proclaimed himself emperor. The emperor who ruled as an avaricious dictator. Jean-Bédel Bokassa's time in power in the CAR began with promises of equality and justice. Hailed as a beacon of strength, he would go on to preside over a regime of eccentricity, excess and sadistic cruelty. But decades before the surreal coronation, the 17 wives and the vast collection of luxurious possessions, our story begins in a much humbler setting. In a forested village near the CAR's southern border, rebellion is in the air… A Noiser podcast production. Narrated by Paul McGann. Featuring Louisa Lombard, Richard Moncrieff, Gino Vlavonou.

Car buying can be one of the biggest — and most stressful — financial decisions we make. And too often, the auto industry feels like it was built to leave women out of the conversation. That ends today. In this episode, Jean Chatzky sits down with Chaya M. Milchtein, automotive educator, author of Mechanic Shop Femme's Guide to Car Ownership, and all-around badass when it comes to helping women and LGBTQ+ folks feel confident in car buying, maintenance, and ownership. We also dive into: Why EVs aren't for everyone, and what to know before you commit How to figure out the true cost of car ownership The #1 negotiating mistake people make (and how to avoid it) How women can reclaim power in auto spaces that weren't built for us What to do if you're buying a car for your kid, and peace of mind is your top priority

Ferdinand wanted to make cars for the people, but the Porsche brand we know is an empire of performance. Dave Young: Welcome to the Empire Builders Podcast, teaching business owners the not-so-secret techniques that took famous businesses from mom and pop to major brands. Stephen Semple is a marketing consultant, story collector, and storyteller. I’m Stephen’s sidekick and business partner, Dave Young. Before we get into today’s episode, a word from our sponsor, which is, well, it’s us, but we’re highlighting ads we’ve written and produced for our clients, so here’s one of those. [ASAP Commercial Doors Ad] Dave Young: Welcome to The Empire Builders Podcast. It’s the podcast where we talk about empires that were built, businesses, business empires. You know what we… If you’ve listened before, you know… Stephen Semple: Something like that. I get it. Businesses that have done pretty well over the years. Dave Young: They started small. Stephen Semple: They started small. Dave Young: They started small and then they got big. They got so big to the point that you could call them an empire. Stephen Semple: That’s it. That’s the idea. Dave Young: It’s a pretty simple premise. Stephen Semple: That’s it. Dave Young: So as we counted down, Steve told me the topic today and it’s Porsche. Stephen Semple: Yes, sir. Dave Young: Porsche. I’m assuming this is the car. Stephen Semple: The car, yes, the car. Dave Young: Okay. Stephen Semple: The car. Dave Young: And I’m trying to… I know some Porsche jokes, but I probably shouldn’t tell those on this show. I’m trying to think if I’ve ever actually been in a Porsche. Stephen Semple: Oh, well then you’ve got to come up and see me, Dave. Dave Young: You own one. I know you own one. Stephen Semple: Well, I have one. Bernier’s got two. I don’t know how many Steve has. Dave Young: I see how it is. I see how it is. Maybe I will tell my Porsche joke. So you guys that own them, do you call it Porscha? Because some of us just say Porsche. Stephen Semple: Well, if you actually take a look back, that’s the proper German pronunciation as Porsche. Dave Young: Porsche, okay. Stephen Semple: And it’s supposed to not be… It’s not Italian Porsche, right? So it’s Porsche. Dave Young: Porsche, Porsche. Okay, I’ll accept that. I’ll accept that. I’m guessing we’re- Stephen Semple: Well, look, you got to always call a dealership to double check. They’ll tell you. Dave Young: Now, if I had to guess where we’re headed to start this off sometime around the 40s, maybe earlier. Stephen Semple: A little earlier than that, actually. It was founded by Ferdinand Porsche in 1931 in Stuttgart, Germany. You’re not far off. But the interesting thing is where the growth really happened, even though that’s when it was founded, when things really started to happen, was actually post-World War II. Dave Young: That makes sense. Stephen Semple: You’re correct on that. Dave Young: So, it started in 31 and by the time you hit the late 30s and 40s, you’re part of the war machine. Stephen Semple: Yes. Dave Young: Okay. Stephen Semple: So it was founded in 1931, Stuttgart, Germany by Ferdinand. And when we take a look at the history of the business for a very long time, they were a part of the VW group, although they were recently spun off into their own separate business. And there’s a lot of shared history between VW and Porsche. A lot of people make fun of the fact that it’s basically a VW. There’s so much connection. Now here’s the other thing is, there’s a lot of connection in Nazi Germany here as well. And I mean- Dave Young: That’s what I was intimating but trying not to say, but yes, there was definitely. Stephen Semple: And not one of these ones of, “Oh, I’m a business and I got sucked up into the machine.” I mean, very early on. Very early on. Ferdinand was a member of the SS following the war, both he and his son were charged. Dave Young: No kidding. Stephen Semple: He served two years in jail. His son six months. So we’re not talking loose connections here. He was a buddy of Adolf. Let’s just put it out there. And if you remember, going back to episode 21, VW was founded by Nazi Germany. So episode 21 about The Beetle, and Ferdinand was the guy who designed the Beetle. Dave Young: Right, right. I remember you saying that, Ferdinand Porsche. Stephen Semple: And look, Porsche has not always had the success it has today. It’s become pretty big. They do 40 billion EU in sales. They have 40,000 employees. They make 300,000 cars. There was a time that they’re making cars in the hundreds and thousands. It wasn’t that long ago. But let’s go back to Germany to the early 1900s. And if we think about Germany at that time, pre-World War II, pre-World War I, there was lots of history of engineering and science in Germany. More Nobel Prizes in Science was awarded to Germany than anywhere else in the world at that time. Dave Young: Right. Stephen Semple: Germany was a real leader in science and engineering. And the first commercial automobile was made in Germany by Mercedes-Benz. So it’s 1906 and Daimler recruits Ferdinand because Ferdinand had been the winner of the Pottingham [inaudible 00:06:05] Prize, which is the automotive engineer of the year, which is given to new chief engineers and basically allows the person to have this designated doctor engineer honoris causa, Ferdinand Porsche. And he would go around calling himself all of that. Dave Young: Okay. Stephen Semple: And this is an honorary doctorate because he never actually finished college, but he had real engineering chops, Ferdinand. So he moves to Stuttgart, which at the time is a center of car making in Germany, including all the suppliers. And he works for Benz for 20 years. Okay. Now, it’s Germany in the 1930s and 2% of the population own a car in Germany as compared to the United States, which is 30%. Dave Young: In that time? Stephen Semple: In that time. Dave Young: Okay. Stephen Semple: Ferdinand comes up with this idea of we should make an inexpensive car. We shouldn’t be making car for the wealthy. We should make an inexpensive car. The board rejects the idea. Ferdinand leaves in 1929. And in 1931… Kicks around for a few years, and then 1931 starts a consulting firm. Now, this dude knew how to name things. You’re ready for the name of the company? Dave Young: Of the consulting firm? Stephen Semple: Of the consulting firm. Dave Young: Okay. Stephen Semple: I have to read this to get it right. The Doctor Engineer Honoris Causa Ferdinand Porsche Construction and Consulting and Design Services for Motor Vehicles. Dave Young: Now, if I know anything about German, that was all one word that you just said, right? Stephen Semple: Well- Dave Young: No spaces in between any of those words. Stephen Semple: Translated, you’ll see it as Dr. in H period, C period, F period, Porsche, capital G, small M, small B, capital H. Dave Young: It just rolls off the tongue, doesn’t it? Stephen Semple: Now, here’s the crazy thing. Up until 2009, that remained the official name of the company. You actually can find, if you see Porsche’s older than that, that if you look for that, it’ll be stamped somewhere in the car that that’s the manufacturer. Dave Young: They changed it finally because it was just too expensive to- Stephen Semple: It cost too much- Dave Young: Put that many letters in a dye cast. Stephen Semple: Exactly, exactly. Dave Young: Holy cow. Stephen Semple: So it’s 1934 and they land a contract with Germany to design a small affordable car for the people called the Volkswagen. Dave Young: Volkswagen. Stephen Semple: Beetle. Right, there you go. Now, here’s the thing that’s weird. Post World War II, the allies are in trying to rebuild Germany and no one owns VW. VW was owned by the state. So now it’s in the hands of the British and the British and the allies want to create a strong economy in West Germany because it’s now the Cold War. So the big defense to defending against East Germany and the expansion of communism is to really get the economy going in Germany. And so the British government, as we know from episode 21 about the Beetle, approached Porsche who designed it and said, “Help us get this car built.” And this is where it gets just a little bit weird because the son goes in one direction. Ferdinand’s doing his own thing. They both got arrested for war crimes. Son gets out first because he did six months. And his son’s name’s Ferry and his dad is in jail for two years. So between this time where dad’s still in jail and son’s out, here’s one of the things they did towards the end of the war. We don’t know exactly how many, but it was probably about 20 of their best engineers and they moved them out into the farmland of Austria and basically had them working in a barn because they didn’t want to get them arrested or killed, quite frankly. So Ferry gets out and he goes to this barn in Austria and he’s looking around and he goes, “What the heck are we going to do to make some money? Let’s start fixing up cars.” Now, not a huge business fixing up cars. It’s post-war and there weren’t a lot of cars in Germany anyway, but they had to do something. Then the dad gets out of jail and he ends up doing this work with Volkswagen. Now, here’s what’s interesting. And this is where the really tight ties between Porsche and Volkswagen start. The deal that the German government gives Ferdinand, the deal that the allies give Ferdinand is this. Dave Young: Stay tuned. We’re going to wrap up this story and tell you how to apply this lesson to your business right after this. [Using Stories to Sell Ad] Dave Young: Let’s pick up our story where we left off and trust me you haven’t missed a thing. Stephen Semple: The deal that the allies give Ferdinand is this. We want your help designing and distributing this car. We will give you a royalty for every VW Beetle sold worldwide. Dave Young: Wow, that’s pretty generous. Stephen Semple: Well, no one knew it was going to be such a huge success and basically go for 50 years that car was being built. Dave Young: Right, right. Stephen Semple: So for a long time, the biggest source of revenue for Porsche was royalties on VW Beetle sales. Dave Young: Wow, okay. So it really- Stephen Semple: Isn’t that crazy? Dave Young: It really wouldn’t exist if that deal hadn’t been made. Stephen Semple: May not have, may not have. Now, meanwhile, Ferry, who has design chops of his own and loves cars, started tinkering around with vehicles. And what he started to do was put big engines in small cars. There was all these Beetle parts lying around. He would build a car, this little car, and he’d put a big engine in it. And if you go back in the time, if you go back and take a look in the late 30s, early 40s, and you take a look at Ferraris and things like that, you take a look at the race cars at the time, they were two-thirds engines. They’re these massive engines. So he went the opposite direction. He said, “Well, let’s take a little car and put a big engine in it.” And he’s driving around and he goes, “This is fun.” Because he’s basing it on parts lying around, which is the VW stuff. It’s an engine in the back. This becomes the Porsche 356, which is basically Porsche’s first car. So they start making this car and they wanted to make it somewhat affordable. So the price was $3,750, which would be $42,000 today. And they also wanted to have it as being a daily driver because again, everybody else making performance cars were not daily drivers, had a trunk, bunch of things, daily driver. And this is an important part of Porsche’s DNA. We’re going to come back to this a little bit later, this idea of it being a daily driver. So coming out of World War II, sports cars, industry’s happening and everybody’s got one. MG and Jag in the UK, there’s Ferrari in Italy, you get the idea. Now, one thing I forgot to mention that’s interesting and still today, the government state of Lower Saxony, which is basically would be the state, they still own 20% of Volkswagen. Dave Young: Really? Okay. Stephen Semple: I forgot to mention that. Dave Young: Who are they now? Stephen Semple: Well, Volkswagen’s still around. Volkswagen’s still- Dave Young: No, who is the Saxony? Stephen Semple: Well, it’d be like saying the state of Texas. It’s a state. Dave Young: Okay, it’s just a part of Germany. Stephen Semple: Part of Germany and that government still owns 20% of the company. Dave Young: What a world. Stephen Semple: Now there’s all this stimulus going on in Germany to try to get the economy going. One of the things that they did, there was a really interesting tax rate. There was an interesting tax structure. There was a very high marginal tax rate. Now, ordinary people were taxed at 15%, but the marginal tax rate could go as high as 95%. And the reason why they wanted to do this was create this incentive for reinvestment. So there’s all this… As they’re making money, there’s this heavy reinvestment. And in the early 50s, racing is really exploding. Automobile racing is really exploding, but the lines between professional and amateur is blurry. If you remember, James Dean and Steve McQueen and other actors, Paul Newman, were all racing. Dave Young: Right. Stephen Semple: They’re all racing vehicles. And Jaguar and Porsche were trying to do the same thing in terms of creating this daily driver that you could race. Now in the end, Porsche won, and I think part of it is because quite frankly, they just built a better vehicle. There was a time where the joke with Jaguars was you had to own two because one would always be in the shop and one… And going back to the early DNA, Ferry Porsche was quoted as saying, “We have the only car that can go from an East African safari to race in the Le Mans to take out to theater and then drive on the streets in New York.” Dave Young: Wow, okay. Stephen Semple: And look, today, Porsche still heavily advertises that. They will advertise a Porsche driving through the snow with ski racks on it. And not their SUVs, the 911. This is very much part of it. And if you think about it, this parallels what Rolex did in the early days. You remember from episode 184 with Rolex. Rolex, the Submariner, the Explorer. Dave Young: Target by niche. Stephen Semple: Target by niche and make it tough and something that you could use and wear day to day. So it’s 1954 and Porsche’s selling 588 cars and about 40% of them is in the US. So really what’s making things hum with them is all those Beetle sales. And it’s the ’60s, the Ford Mustang comes out, the Jag E type comes out, the Austin-Healey comes out, and Porsche decides they need a new vehicle. And they were going to do a sedan, a four door sedan. But what they realized was they didn’t really want to compete with Mercedes and BMW. So they looked around at the other German car manufacturers and they said, “You know what? That’s probably not the place to go.” They had designed it up and that project failed. They had also been working on a six cylinder Boxter engine. So Boxter engine, the cylinders are opposed, so they’re like boxing. And the whole idea is that lowers the center of gravity of the weight of the engine. And they had a project that they were working on that that didn’t go ahead. So they stepped back and they went, “Maybe what we should do is just reduce the size of the sedan and put that engine in it.” That’s what they did. And that became the Porsche 901. Except there’s a problem. Peugeot had the copyright for zero in the middle of a bunch of numbers in France. They couldn’t call it the 901 because of that copyright. Dave Young: So they called it- Stephen Semple: So they called it the 911. And that’s now the iconic Porsche car. 1966, they sell 13,000 of these cars. Now, here’s the thing that I think is very interesting. And Porsche, as far as I could figure out, is the only car manufacturer that does this. First of all, they’ve maintained the 911 forever, but even on top of that, Porsche really understands design language. We can all recognize a Porsche. Dave Young: Right. Stephen Semple: We can recognize one from 2020. We can recognize one from 1999. We can recognize one from 1970. Even though they’ve upgraded the technology, they’ve changed the design of the car. They’ve now come out with the Cayman and the Macan and the Cayenne. They’re all recognizable as that vehicle. They’ve done a great job of doing that. I think that was a lost opportunity, frankly, when Tesla came out because they had a clean design slate. Tesla could have done that. But I think that’s really interesting how they’ve managed to maintain, even though they’ll modernize it. In our minds, we still will see one and go, “That’s a Porsche.” Dave Young: Sure. And the great car brands are able to do that. Stephen Semple: Yes. Dave Young: Audi is always going to be an Audi. Volvo is always going to look like a Volvo. And in the Portals class at Wizard Academy, one of the videos that I use to demonstrate that, there’s a language. If you combine specific shapes and specific lines, that all adds up to that brand of car. And so I’ve got an old video that I got when I was in the Motor Press Guild from Audi. It was just a video that was made for journalists with an Audi designer explaining all the lines on the car when they came out with the Q7 and how it still maintained the Audi design language. It was fascinating. Stephen Semple: It is. Dave Young: So Porsche could tell you that and the cool thing is those designers can tell you that. It’s hard for you and I to go, “Well, I can look at it and say, “That’s a Porsche.” But to be able to put it into words that describe it to someone else, is a gift. Stephen Semple: What’s really interesting, my nephew, Jeffrey, he loves Audi’s. That’s what he has. And he’ll even make the comment, he doesn’t like the Porsche’s because you feel like you’re in a bubble. Audis are very square. If you look at the back of an Audi and you look at the rear end of a Porsche, it has hips. But again, he’s even, “They’re great cars, but I like the squareness of the Audi.” So that’s interesting. Dave Young: Audi Audi has a fairly, not perpendicular, but an upright grill more so than a … And that’s part of their design language. Stephen Semple: So the whole DNA of Porsche came from this whole idea of a small car. Dave Young: Big engine. Stephen Semple: Big engine, daily driver, that was the whole idea is, it’s supposed to be a car that you can drive every day. That’s the core, core, core, core principle. That’s why they always have decent sized trunks. I remember when Gary bought his Boxter, one of the things he loved about it is you can actually put two sets of golf clubs in that car. Dave Young: Okay. Stephen Semple: Right? Now, here’s what’s fun. There was a time where when they were really wanting to get things going, they did some great print advertisements. So they had ads like bug killer. Another one was calling it transportation is like calling sex reproduction. Dave Young: Okay. Stephen Semple: Now, two of my favorites, one was not perfect. It would list 20 or 30 races that Porsche won. And if you actually read it, there was two that it didn’t. Dave Young: That they didn’t, “We didn’t win all the races.” Stephen Semple: So not perfect. Dave Young: That could have been driver error. Stephen Semple: That could have been. But Dave, you were going to make some jokes. Porsche’s able to laugh at itself. It actually had an ad that said, “Small penis? Have I got a car for you? If you’re going to overcompensate, then by all means, overcompensate.” Dave Young: I love it, I love it. Well, and that’s always the thing, the jokes are not about the car. Stephen Semple: But they actually ran that ad and I believe it ran in Car and Driver Magazine. I cannot imagine getting that ad approved. Dave Young: That’s amazing. Stephen Semple: And look, their own drivers are like, “Yeah, whatever.” Dave Young: Sure, compensating all I want. Absolutely. I love that story. Well, thank you, Stephen. I love the story of Porsche. Stephen Semple: There you go. Dave Young: And get out there and enjoy it or just buy me one and send it here. Thank you.

«Avez-vous fait pleurer Kate ?» Cette question, en apparence innocente n'est pas celle d'une enseignante à une élève mais celle de l'animatrice américaine star, Oprah Winfrey. Elle s'adresse à Meghan Markle, ancienne actrice outre-Atlantique, devenue duchesse de Sussex et membre de la famille royale britannique en épousant le Prince Harry. La Kate en question n'est autre que la Princesse de Galles et épouse du Prince William.   Cet épisode de 2018 sur la rivalité supposée entre les deux belles-sœurs royales n'a rien d'anodin, il a fait les choux gras de la presse people et a alimenté les conversations des diners en ville du monde entier. Car oui, la monarchie britannique et en particulier ses «pièces rapportées» féminines fascinent. Après l'affaire des larmes, il y a eu le choc de l'annonce du cancer de Kate, accompagné de ses théories du complot, mais avant, il y avait eu le divorce et la mort de la Princesse Diana. Encore bien avant, c'est Wallis Simpson, qui tenait le haut de l'affiche. Cette socialiste américaine doublement divorcée a conduit son amoureux le roi Edouard VIII à abdiquer pour l'épouser. Rien que ça !   À chaque époque, on trouve une saga de la famille royale. Chaque évènement, chaque tenue, chaque phrase est disséquée, analysée, sans que la machine ne s'épuise au fil du temps ni ne lasse un public sans cesse renouvelé.  Le cinéma, la télévision ou la littérature ont aussi bien compris le potentiel dramatique de ces femmes devenues pour certaines des icônes en intégrant la famille royale.   Wallis, Diana, Kate, Meghan, mais bien sûr la reine Elisabeth II, sa sœur Margareth, et toutes les autres, qu'est-ce qui nous fascine en elles ? Avec de telles existences «hors sol», en quoi ces femmes sont-elles malgré tout le reflet de nos sociétés ?   Avec : • Margareth Macdonald, journaliste et autrice de Royales et rebelles – et si c'était les femmes qui portaient la couronne ?

Fin 2024, les agriculteurs français manifestaient contre l'accord de libre-échange entre l'Union européenne et le Mercosur, le marché commun sud-américain, qui réunit le Brésil, l'Argentine, le Paraguay, l'Uruguay et la Bolivie. A ce moment-là, on pensait toute proche la signature du traité entre les deux régions. Mais un an plus tard, c'est le statu quo : la signature n'a pas eu lieu, la Commission européenne espère obtenir l'accord des 27 Etats membres sur le projet d'accord et une nouvelle mobilisation d'agriculteurs est prévue à Bruxelles le 18 décembre.Alors qu'est-ce qui bloque ? La France, notamment. Car cet accord commercial doit permettre de faciliter l'exportation de produits européens comme les voitures, les spiritueux ou les machines, et l'importation de viande, de sucre, de riz ou encore de soja. Des produits qui font craindre aux agriculteurs européens une concurrence déloyale, car ne respectant pas les mêmes normes sanitaires, environnementales et sociales.Mais la France peut-elle à elle seule empêcher le vote du traité ? Que propose l'Union européenne pour rassurer les agriculteurs français ? Quelles sont les prochaines étapes pour ce projet d'accord avec le Mercosur ?Réponses dans cet épisode de « L'Heure du Monde » avec deux journalistes du Monde : Maxime Vaudano, chef du service Décodeurs, et Mathilde Gérard, chargée de la rubrique alimentation au service Planète.Un épisode d'Adélaïde Tenaglia et Marion Bothorel.

C dans l'air du 15 décembre 2025 - Ces épidémies qui inquiètent les agriculteurs... et l'OMSL'épidémie de dermatose nodulaire continue de se propager sur le territoire, et les agriculteurs se font entendre. Plusieurs actions de blocage se déroulent ce lundi 15 décembre dans le sud de la France, en réaction à l'abattage de plus de 200 bovins en Ariège la semaine dernière. Routes coupées et mobilisation témoignent d'un mécontentement croissant dans la profession, alors que la ministre de l'Agriculture est attendue ce lundi après-midi à Toulouse pour aborder la crise et lancer symboliquement une grande campagne sanitaire : la vaccination d'un million de bovins en France.« Bien sûr qu'il y a de l'angoisse, parce que chacun s'imagine que le virus est à la porte de son bâtiment d'élevage. Mais la situation est sous contrôle », a tenté de rassurer Annie Genevard ce matin sur France 2, ajoutant que la « discussion sur la suspension des abattages est ouverte ». « Les éleveurs font des propositions sérieuses et réfléchies. Nous allons écouter, regarder, concerter », a promis la ministre.Après être apparue cet été en Savoie, la dermatose nodulaire touche désormais l'Aude, où un premier cas a été détecté ce lundi, après avoir affecté la Haute-Garonne, la Savoie, l'Ain, le Jura, les Pyrénées et l'Ariège. Une maladie qui inquiète et divise le monde agricole. Car si la FNSEA appelle au calme et défend la stratégie gouvernementale, des éleveurs s'opposent à l'abattage systématique des troupeaux touchés et dénoncent le lancement bien trop tardif d'une campagne de vaccination. D'autres pointent l'inaction de l'État face à cette maladie et appellent à un contrôle accru des mouvements d'animaux.La ministre défend de son côté sa stratégie, affirmant s'appuyer sur « ce que la science nous dit, ce que les vétérinaires nous disent, ce que les pays étrangers ont appliqué ». « Il y a trois piliers : le dépeuplement (c'est-à-dire l'abattage, ndlr), la vaccination et la restriction des mouvements », a-t-elle énuméré, ajoutant que « cette stratégie a fonctionné en Savoie, en Haute-Savoie, dans le Jura, en Italie, en Espagne ». « Il faut que chacun ait conscience que l'ennemi, c'est le virus. D'abord, il faut respecter les consignes. Il faut limiter les mouvements, sinon tout va s'étendre et on ne maîtrisera plus rien », a insisté Annie Genevard ce lundi matin.Depuis vendredi dernier, les blocages se multiplient aux quatre coins de la France pour dénoncer la politique sanitaire du gouvernement. Et c'est loin d'être fini. Après d'importantes mobilisations menées tout le week-end, les syndicats ont déjà appelé à d'autres actions toute la semaine. Car d'autres dossiers brûlants alimentent aussi la colère des agriculteurs, comme la baisse annoncée du budget de la Politique agricole commune (PAC) européenne, l'accord de libre-échange prévu entre l'UE et les États du Mercosur, mais aussi la résurgence de la grippe aviaire.Le virus H5N1 atteint un niveau inédit et la France se retrouve parmi les pays les plus frappés par une grippe aviaire en pleine accélération. Entre foyers qui se multiplient, propagation fulgurante en Europe du Nord et risque de mutation, l'hiver s'annonce sous haute surveillance. La circulation très active du virus fait en effet craindre le passage de ce virus à l'humain.Alors, qu'est-ce que la dermatose nodulaire ? Derrière l'épidémie, quelles sont les raisons de la colère des éleveurs ? Enfin, pourquoi la grippe aviaire inquiète-t-elle particulièrement les autorités sanitaires cette année ?Nos experts :- Frédéric DENHEZ - Journaliste, spécialiste des questions environnementales - Marianne - Nicolas BERROD - Journaliste, chef adjoint du service santé sciences au Parisien - Aujourd'hui en France - Olivia DETROYAT - Journaliste économique - Le Figaro, en charge du suivi de l'agriculture - Gaelle MACKE - Directrice déléguée de la rédaction - Challenges

Bienvenue dans Les Fabuleux Destins. Dans cet épisode, nous allons vous parler d'un conquérant extraordinaire au charisme et à la cruauté presque inégalables. Élevé dans la misère au milieu d'un pays divisé, il a su réunir tout son peuple et bâtir un empire gigantesque. Son nom : Temüjin, plus connu sous le nom de Gengis Khan. Des steppes sauvages de Mongolie jusqu'aux confins de l'Asie, découvrez son fabuleux destin.  Le plus grand conquérant de l'Histoire Automne, 1170. Dans le silence des steppes de Mongolie, une femme marche seule, avec ses 7 enfants. Son mari vient d'être empoisonné par une peuplade rivale. C'était un guerrier respecté, un chef de clan. Mais sa mort emporte tout son prestige avec lui. Et à présent, sa famille n'est plus rien aux yeux de leur tribu. Son fils le plus âgé, Temüjin, n'a encore que 9 ans. Il est trop jeune, trop faible pour prendre la place de son père. Ils ont donc été abandonnés au milieu des steppes. Sans yourte pour s'abriter, sans clan pour se défendre, et sans troupeau, le jeune Temüjin, sa mère, et ses frères et sœurs sont voués à une mort certaine… Quasi certaine… Car pendant sept ans, dans la misère d'une vie nomade et solitaire, la petite famille réussit à survivre. Dans les steppes sauvages de Mongolie, on vit ensemble ou on meurt seul. Et chaque année qu'il passe ici, à chasser à l'arc, à trembler de froid la nuit, à marcher des dizaines et des dizaines de kilomètres par jour, Temüjin sculpte son corps de jeune adulte et s'endurcit.  À 16 ans, sa taille est désormais plus élevée que la plupart des hommes. Et sous son large front, dans ses yeux de chat effilés comme des lames de rasoir, un feu brille continuellement : celui de la fierté, de l'ambition et de la vengeance. Mais ce qu'il ne sait pas encore, c'est que dans les années qui suivent, il ne sera pas seulement un puissant chef mongol… Il va devenir l'un des conquérants les plus redoutables de l'Histoire et bâtir le plus grand empire que l'humanité ait jamais connu.  Un podcast Bababam Originals Ecriture : Elie Olivennes Production : Bababam Voix : Andréa Brusque Learn more about your ad choices.

There were several unusual sports stories which occurred over the weekend.  Let’s jump right in! WWE star performer John Cena finally ended his year-long “Good-bye” tour on Saturday night in a nationally televised wrestling event in Washington DC.  The 48-year old Cena was a 17-time WWE champion and, more recently, has become involved in the movie business much like former wrestler Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson. Longtime NFL quarterback Philip Rivers, though, just exited his nearly five-year football retirement at age 44 on Sunday to lead the Indianapolis Colts.  Rivers last played NFL football in January, 2021. The irony is that it might be entirely possible that these two 40-something athletes might just find themselves doing the opposite at some point soon. Cena taps-out to the disappointment of millions of wrestling fans John Cena publicly announced his decision to retire from professional wrestling before the end of 2025 due to the physical nature of the sport and his advancing age.  That sounds rational and reasonable for a 48-year old man working in such a demanding and dangerous profession. John Cena’s wrestling ring motto was “Never give up!” Alas, the WWE scriptwriters for Saturday night’s final match ignored Cena’s favorite slogan. The popular John Cena tapped-out (gave up) in losing to a designated bad guy (“heel”) named Gunther. No, not Gunther Toody from “Car 54, Where are You?” There is actually a pro wrestler named Gunther! The wink-and-nod nature of pro wrestling etiquette is for the exiting top star to lose in their final match to promote an up-and-coming personality.  The exiting champion’s loss usually provides a significant “push” up the prestige ladder for the winner in popularity (good or bad) with pro wrestling fans. John Cena’s surprising loss to Gunther (a well-trained and very proficient wrestler who, unfortunately, has the personality of a dill pickle) means that something special is likely coming for Gunther soon in the WWE. Perhaps Gunther will receive a much-needed personality transplant and become a good guy (“baby face”) during 2026? Meanwhile, John Cena signed a 5-year deal to stick around WWE and help promote the business.  He claimed that his wrestling days were officially over as of Saturday night. But, hey, we’re talking pro wrestling here! You never know when a new script will developed by the WWE requiring none other than John Cena to save the day and make yet another “final” comeback, right? NFL: Ol’ Man Rivers…he keeps on rollin’ along! On the other end of the retirement spectrum, 44-year old quarterback Philip Rivers returned to the NFL on Sunday! The aging QB is now one good hit away from being sent back to his Alabama Gulf Coast home to begin a second NFL retirement soon. The Indianapolis Colts were the darlings of the NFL during the first two months of this season. They raced out to 7-1 start. Indy then lost four of its next five games. Making matters worse, starting quarterback Daniel Jones went down with a season-ending Achilles tendon injury one week ago in Jacksonville.  Back-up quarterback Anthony Richardson was already on injured reserve nursing an eye injury. The Colts turned to a rookie third-stringer named Riley Leonard to replace the injured Daniel Jones in the game at Jacksonville. The former Notre Dame signal caller completed 18 out of 29 passes for a measly 145 yards and one interception in the Colts’ 34-19 defeat.  The team’s record fell to 8-5. Indianapolis found itself one game behind Jacksonville in the AFC South.  The Colts’ playoff hopes were fading quickly. Enter Philip Rivers Quarterback Philip Rivers played 16 of his 17 NFL seasons with the San Diego-turned-Los Angeles Chargers. He became a free agent in 2020 and played for one final season with the Indianapolis Colts before retiring in early 2021 at age 39. The veteran quarterback has been living in southern Alabama wondering whether he might still be able to compete at a high level once again. Rivers said, “My wife always tells me that I’m crazy because there’s been times in the past three or four years when I said, ‘I wish I could just throw one and get hit hard!’ She’s like, ‘That’s not normal’!’”t A series of calls between Philip Rivers and his former Indianapolis coach brought the veteran signal caller out of retirement last week. He left the toasty Gulf Coast and traveled to frigid Indianapolis for one final NFL ride.  The likely Hall-of-Fame quarterback found himself in the team’s starting line-up days later on Sunday as the Colts traveled to play Seattle. Sunday’s game against the Seahawks saw Philip Rivers complete 18 of 27 pass attempts for a modest 120 yards with one touchdown and one interception. He led to the Colts downfield to take the lead with just 47 seconds remaining as newly signed (former Saints) placekicker Blake Grupe nailed a 60-yard field goal. Unfortunately, the Colts’ defense allowed Seattle to move the ball downfield to score a game-winning 57-yard field goal by Jason Myers with only seconds remaining. The Indianapolis Colts’ 18-16 loss dropped the team to 8-6 and two games behind Jacksonville in the AFC South. With three games left in the NFL regular season, Philip Rivers and the Indianapolis Colts face a daunting challenge to qualify for the playoffs. Their next two games come at home against San Francisco (10-4) and Jacksonville (10-4). The Colts will close the season against their AFC South rival Houston Texans (9-5). Ouch.  This won’t get any easier for Ol’ Man Rivers and his Indianapolis Colts. The New Orleans Saints have become the NFL’s 2025 spoiler team Two weeks ago, the New Orleans Saints were a pitiful 2-10 and in the running for earning the NFL’s #1 draft pick next spring by having the worst record in the league. However, two consecutive wins over NFC South leaders Tampa Bay and Carolina have injected the suddenly-spunky Saints with some late-season confidence. The Saints rallied from behind in the fourth quarter for the second consecutive week on Sunday in defeating this week’s NFC South leader Carolina 20-17.  The loss dropped the Panthers into a first place tie with the team which New Orleans beat last weekend in western Florida.  Tampa Bay and Carolina are now tied at 7-7. The Saints improved to 4-10 and have zero chance of receiving the #1 draft pick next spring. Sunday’s victory put New Orleans behind a 2-12 trio of the Tennessee Titans, Las Vegas Raiders and New York Giants plus the 3-11 duo of the New York Jets and Cleveland Browns. Most Saints fans couldn’t be happier, though. Rookie quarterback Tyler Shough has displayed rapid improvement and provided some much-needed leadership in the Saints’ offensive huddle. The New Orleans Saints defense has been excellent recently, too.  The team’s final three games are winnable (at home for the 3-11 Jets this coming Sunday and on the road at 2-12 Tennessee and 5-9 Atlanta).  A 7-10 finish would be a huge accomplishment for rookie head coach Kellen Moore and his staff. Saints fans are finally feeling a little renewed hope for their favorite team. Did you hear about the wild finish in a Louisiana high school state championship game last Friday? Imagine if your high school football team had scored the potential game-tying touchdown in the state championship game with just 35 seconds left to play.  The extra point kick would tie the score, but…he missed it! Oh, no! The St. Charles Comets from LaPlace (30 miles NW of New Orleans) were that team last Friday night in the Louisiana Superdome.  Their opponent was none other than the defending state champion Archbishop Shaw High School Eagles (also from the New Orleans area). The Comets trailed 21-20 and attempted an onside kick.  Shaw recovered. St. Charles used its two remaining timeouts after first and second downs.  With no more timeouts remaining, all Shaw’s Eagles had to do to claim the state championship was to take a knee and watch the game clock run out. On that fateful third down play, one of Shaw’s offensive linemen prematurely tossed his helmet into the air – thinking that his team had already won the state championship. The game officials said, “Not so fast!” Archbishop Shaw was whistled for a 15-yard unsportsmanlike conduct penalty on the play.  The Eagles faced a fourth down punting situation after the premature celebration penalty was whistled. St. Charles then partially blocked the punt. The Comets remarkably had the football back but only seconds remaining to be played.  A sideline pass completion found the Comets’ receiver running out of bounds to stop the clock and bring on a potential game winning field goal attempt. Yes, the field goal kicker would be the same St. Charles high school placekicker who missed the potential game-tying extra point just moments earlier.   This time, he would attempt a 47-yard game-winning field goal on the game’s final play. Tyler Milioto’s kick went, as New Orleans Saints fans might say, “Right down Poydras Street!” and through the uprights. St. Charles emerged with an improbable 23-21 win as pandemonium ensued in the Superdome. The players, coaches, and fans of both teams had just experienced extreme sadness and happiness – all during the final minute of play. For Archbishop Shaw’s team and fans, there was understandable confusion and anger about how the referees could have penalized one of their young men for being overly excited about winning a state football championship. The St. Charles Comets fans couldn’t believe their own good fortune in getting a second chance to win the game.  The team’s kicker felt a very special redemption. “I felt like I had lost us the game, and then the next thing I know I’m out there kicking the game-winning field goal,” said St. Charles kicker Tyler Milioto. Indeed!  It was the thrill of victory and the agony of defeat. No one will forget that high school football game!

Pour parler du pays le plus pauvre de l'Union européenne, il faut d'abord préciser de quoi l'on parle. Si l'on mesure la richesse par le PIB total, la Bulgarie n'est évidemment pas le pays le plus pauvre. En revanche, si l'on s'intéresse au niveau de vie moyen, c'est-à-dire au PIB par habitant corrigé du pouvoir d'achat, alors la réponse est claire : la Bulgarie est aujourd'hui le pays le plus pauvre de l'UE.Concrètement, le revenu moyen par habitant en Bulgarie représente un peu plus de 40 % de la moyenne européenne. C'est nettement moins que la Roumanie, la Croatie ou la Hongrie, qui ont pourtant longtemps été dans des situations comparables. Cette faiblesse s'explique par plusieurs facteurs : une industrialisation tardive, une transition post-communiste difficile dans les années 1990, une forte émigration des jeunes actifs vers l'Europe de l'Ouest, et une corruption persistante qui freine l'investissement et la productivité.Mais ce constat mérite d'être nuancé. Car paradoxalement, l'Union européenne a énormément enrichi la Bulgarie depuis son adhésion en 2007. En près de vingt ans, le pays a connu une forte croissance, ses infrastructures se sont modernisées, et des milliards d'euros de fonds européens ont financé routes, écoles, réseaux énergétiques et développement régional. Le niveau de vie a progressé bien plus vite qu'avant l'entrée dans l'UE, même s'il reste faible en comparaison européenne.C'est dans ce contexte qu'intervient une actualité hautement symbolique : dans trois semaines, si le calendrier est respecté, la Bulgarie doit adopter l'euro. Sur le papier, c'est une étape historique. Le pays remplit depuis longtemps les critères techniques, sa monnaie est arrimée à l'euro depuis plus de vingt ans, et l'entrée dans la zone euro est censée renforcer la stabilité financière, attirer les investisseurs et réduire les coûts de transaction.Pourtant, l'événement ne donne lieu à aucune célébration nationale. Au contraire. La Bulgarie traverse une crise politique aiguë, marquée par une instabilité chronique, des gouvernements successifs de courte durée et une défiance massive envers les élites. Une partie importante de la population redoute que l'euro entraîne une hausse des prix sans amélioration réelle des salaires. Pour beaucoup de Bulgares, la question n'est pas la monnaie, mais la corruption, les inégalités et la difficulté à vivre décemment de son travail.En résumé, la Bulgarie illustre un paradoxe européen frappant : le pays le plus pauvre de l'UE est aussi l'un de ceux qui a le plus bénéficié de l'Europe, mais cette réussite macroéconomique ne suffit pas à effacer le malaise social et politique. L'euro arrive, mais l'enthousiasme, lui, n'est pas au rendez-vous. Hébergé par Acast. Visitez acast.com/privacy pour plus d'informations.

The show starts off with Sami's review of the 2026 Chrysler Pacifica AWD, which boasts a peachy engine and cool seats that can hide away for more storage as needed, but Sami points out there are more than a few concerns with the American company's minivan, and it may be starting to feel a bit old these days. Then Benjamin reviews the 2026 Honda Odyssey, which he pilots through a pair of hefty snowstorms. Though it lacks the all-wheel-drive and versatile seats of the Pacifica, he has more than few reasons to recommend this mighty minivan. Finally, Benjamin regales us with a tale of a near-death experience that he almost forgot about until reminded by Sami and a Facebook memory. Thanks for listening!!

Tapis rouge dans le Point, cette semaine. Nicolas Sarkozy, souriant, est en Une, avec ce sous-titre : « Nicolas Sarkozy, le grand entretien ». Une longue interview, d'une dizaine de pages, dans laquelle celui qui vient de passer vingt jours en prison, et qui raconte ce séjour dans le Journal d'un prisonnier, est interrogé sur l'âge de la retraite, le pouvoir judiciaire, ou encore le christianisme. C'est Franz-Olivier Giesbert, l'éditorialiste du Point, qui mène l'interview avec enthousiasme et commence par cette question inattendue : « Aujourd'hui, dans votre situation, la solution la plus logique pour vous ne serait-elle pas de vous présenter à l'élection présidentielle afin de laver dans le suffrage universel l'affront de votre détention ? ». Nicolas Sarkozy répond que « techniquement, c'est impossible ». Il est en effet inéligible. Après cette interview, le Point revient d'ailleurs en détail sur « les batailles judiciaires » de l'ex-président. « Son procès en appel dans l'affaire libyenne s'ouvrira en mars », rappelle l'hebdomadaire, qui constate : « La promotion de son livre pourra le divertir, mais le répit sera de courte durée. Nicolas Sarkozy n'en a pas fini avec les juges, qui auront le dernier mot ». À lire aussiFrance: avec son livre, Nicolas Sarkozy «s'inscrit dans sa stratégie de défense médiatique» « J'ai prié » Le Canard enchaîné a lui aussi lu le Journal d'un prisonnier, et en livre un compte-rendu beaucoup plus caustique. « Merci, saint Nicolas ! », titre l'hebdomadaire satirique. « Nicolas Sarkozy, ironise le Canard, est sur le chemin de la sainteté. C'est ce qu'on comprend en lisant son Journal d'un prisonnier, qui raconte sa rédemption et la nouvelle vie qu'il compte mener désormais, loin des équipées chez Kadhafi, loin de ses liens sulfureux avec le Qatar, loin de l'affairisme pratiqué frénétiquement depuis son départ du pouvoir ». Le Canard enchaîné ne semble donc pas convaincu par les propos de Nicolas Sarkozy, qui dans son livre raconte notamment son rapport à la foi, quand il était en prison : « J'ai prié, assure l'ancien président, je priais pour avoir la force de porter la Croix de cette injustice ». Déclaration dont l'hebdomadaire satirique s'amuse en ces termes : « Dieu est partout à la prison de la Santé et il n'oublie pas la brebis égarée ». À lire aussiFrance: l'ex-président Nicolas Sarkozy raconte sa détention dans «Le journal d'un prisonnier» Ancien ministre En France, la fast-fashion est sur le banc des accusés. Et, cette fast-fashion se résume en un mot : Shein. C'est à la Une du Nouvel Obs cette semaine. L'hebdomadaire nous parle d'une « affaire d'État » et nous promet des « révélations sur un lobbying secret ». Car avant de faire office d'ennemi public numéro 1, en France en tout cas, « la plateforme qui reçoit un million de commandes par jour » a courtisé députés et ministres. Le Nouvel Obs s'en offusque : « Les dirigeants de l'enseigne de fast-fashion ont décroché de discrets rendez-vous à Matignon, pour faciliter leurs affaires en France. Plus dérangeant encore : des représentants bien introduits dans les cercles du pouvoir – l'ex-ministre de l'Intérieur, Christophe Castaner en tête – ont été grassement rémunérés pour défendre les intérêts du dragon de la mode instantanée ». « Que vient faire un proche du chef de l'État dans ce dossier alors que le Parlement est en train de légiférer ? », interroge le Nouvel Obs. En effet, en mars 2024, les députés sont appelés à se prononcer « sur une proposition de loi, déposée par le groupe Horizons, visant à réguler l'ultra fast-fashion ». BHV et taxe Shein Toutefois, le lobbying en faveur de Shein se heurte à la réalité. Avec tout d'abord, la désastreuse installation de la plateforme chinoise au très chic BHV à Paris, installation qui a fait fuir les marques de luxe, mais aussi les clients. Et, ce n'est pas tout : « La riposte s'organise enfin », s'exclame le Nouvel Obs : « L'État demande devant le tribunal judiciaire de Paris, la suspension du site pendant trois mois, pour avoir commercialisé des poupées à caractère sexuel d'apparence enfantine. Et, dans le cadre du chaotique débat budgétaire, les députés ont adopté une "taxe Shein" de deux euros ciblant les petits colis d'origine extra-européenne ». La partie n'est pas terminée pour autant. Shein s'active dans les coulisses à Bruxelles, « un ancien commissaire européen est à la manœuvre, l'allemand Günther Oettinger », explique le Nouvel Obs, qui reste méfiant et qui soupçonne Ursula von der Leyen de manquer de cran sur la question de la fast-fashion. La présidente de la Commission européenne serait « tétanisée à l'idée de provoquer une guerre commerciale avec la Chine ». À lire aussiFrance: «C'est le naufrage de l'année pour Shein et le BHV» Plaider l'humanité Enfin, l'Express s'inquiète pour Christophe Gleizes. Le journaliste sportif français, récemment condamné, en appel, à 7 ans de prison en Algérie, ne semble pas avoir bénéficié de l'éclaircie entre Paris et Alger, entrevue à l'occasion de la libération de l'écrivain franco-algérien, Boualem Sansal, le 12 novembre. « Alger a manifestement opté pour le cynisme », accuse l'Express, qui poursuit : « en se délestant de ses deux prisonniers politiques, le régime algérien se serait privé d'un levier utile dans ses négociations, notamment migratoires et mémorielles, avec la France ». « Tout espoir n'est pas perdu », assure toutefois l'Express : « La possibilité d'une grâce demeure entre les mains du président Abdelmadjid Tebboune. Il faudra plaider l'humanité ; Christophe Gleizes aimerait revoir sa grand-mère Georgette. Elle a bientôt 102 ans.»  À lire aussiCondamnation de Christophe Gleizes: «Nous sommes sous le choc de ce verdict», disent ses parents

De Comédie Clubs en festivals, de soirées stand-up à l'École Nationale de l'Humour, une institution pionnière dans l'espace francophone, virée à Montréal où la blague et le rire sont au coin de la rue.  Dans la cité cosmopolite et vibrante de Montréal, du quartier d'Hochelaga au Plateau-Mont-Royal en passant par le quartier de Verdun ou celui de la Petite Italie, il ne se passe pas un soir sans un spectacle d'humour, où le public vient rire et célébrer le rire ! C'est une industrie lourde de la ville et du Québec, et celui qui voyage à Montréal se doit de passer au moins un soir, par une stand-up ou un open-mic pour goûter aux blagues locales. Traditionnellement, le Québec est un «pays» de conteurs et d'oralité, que l'on doit notamment à la culture autochtone plurimillénaire et à l'histoire du peuple québécois. Et en trente ans, la plus grande ville francophone d'Amérique du Nord s'est imposée comme la plaque tournante des humoristes francophones mais aussi anglophones…  Déjà, de longue date, Montréal est célèbre pour accueillir, à l'été, le plus grand festival d'humour : «Juste pour rire» qui, chaque année, rassemble des millions de spectateurs à travers ses shows et ses contenus télévisés, diffusés dans plus de 150 pays. Au départ uniquement francophone, ce festival créé en 1983 par Gilbert Bozon, qui a depuis démissionné, a connu une version anglophone «Just For Laughs», cofondé en 1985 par Andy Nulman. Ce dernier revendique d'ailleurs la contribution des communautés juives de la ville à son rang de capitale de l'humour. Un titre qu'elle n'a certainement pas volé et qui, là-bas, se vérifie et se vit, à la découverte d'une culture hybride, à la croisée de la stand-up américaine et des humours en tout genre. Autre fait important pour l'écosystème de l'humour à Montréal : en 1988, Louise Richer, directrice générale fondatrice de l'École Nationale de l'Humour, ouvre à Montréal la toute première école d'humour professionnelle et s'attache, avec ténacité, à faire reconnaître l'humour comme un art à part entière. 750 diplômés plus tard, sortis de l'école, ce laboratoire pionnier de formation en humour est connu dans tout l'espace francophone et chaque année, l'école reçoit des centaines de candidatures venus du Canada, mais aussi de France ou d'Afrique francophone.  À l'initiative de Louise Richer, on trouve désormais aussi à Montréal, l'Observatoire de l'Humour, conçu comme un lieu d'échanges et de connaissances autour de l'humour francophone. Car aujourd'hui, l'humour, que l'écrivain Romain Gary désignait comme «l'arme des désarmés», sert largement la francophonie, sa diffusion, voire sa survie sur le continent américain comme dans le reste du monde. Le peuple québécois défend d'ailleurs largement cette idée d'une identité façonnée et racontée à travers l'humour et il se rend en masse aux spectacles comiques, qu'il vente ou qu'il neige.  Exutoire populaire et rassembleur, l'humour à Montréal défend ainsi la langue française mais aussi une identité québécoise et montréalaise plurielle, sur une île de plus de 120 nationalités différentes. On y rit de la diversité et des différences et toute une scène queer ou féministe a vu le jour, la profession historiquement aux mains des hommes blancs s'étant largement féminisée et métissée. La culture des Premières Nations, où le rire est très important et se vit comme «un écran aux traumas coloniaux», a aussi marqué de son empreinte la société québécoise et son humour. Et chaque nouvelle communauté apporte sa pierre, son rire, à l'édifice. Un voyage sonore en deux épisodes de Laure Allary et Céline Develay-Mazurelle.    Pour préparer votre voyage en mode humour : - Un article de Tourisme Montréal et un récit multimédia de Radio Canada sur l'apport de l'humour juif à Montréal - Un article de l'écrivain innu Michel Jean sur le rire au sein des Premières Nations - Le livre de référence du célèbre anthropologue Serge Bouchard «Le peuple rieur» sur les Innus   - Le Festival Juste pour Rire qui se tient à la mi-juillet à Montréal - Le RDV populaire des «Lundis de l'humour» au Bar Le Jockey, animé par Lauriane Lalonde, avec Elisabeth Grondin à la chronique - Les incontournables Comédie Clubs Le Bordel ou Le Terminal qui, tous les jours, proposent des opens-mics et shows d'humour - Le circuit des bars comme Chez Roger qui, chaque lundi, propose des shows d'humour ou Chez Ernest qui, le dimanche, propose de l'impro et, le lundi, une soirée comedy club - Le «Couscous Comedy Show», l'évènement préféré de Boucar Diouf, humoriste d'origine sénégalaise et biologiste de formation qui a adopté, à sa manière, la culture québécoise. Boucar Diouf est notamment l'auteur du livre «Ce que la vie doit au rire», paru aux Éditions La Presse - Le Festival Afrikiri qui, depuis dix ans, met à l'honneur des humoristes de l'Afrique francophone  - Pour ceux qui aiment «l'humour à saveur mangue-érable», allez-voir Garihanna Jean-Louis, humoriste québécoise et haïtienne, première femme noire diplômée de l'École Nationale de l'humour (ENH) - Pour en savoir plus sur le parcours de l'autrice en humour Suzanne Vallières-Nollet qui a gradué en 2024 de l'ENH - Le site de l'Observatoire de l'Humour, fondé en 2011. Un espace d'échanges et de connaissances interdisciplinaire sur l'humour francophone - Le site de l'École Nationale de l'humour, une école cofondée par Louise Richer en 1988, qui propose des formations à temps plein ou à temps partiel à tous les publics. Bientôt l'ENH va déménager dans le Quartier Latin à Montréal et aura certainement pignon sur rue…

Parmi les signaux discrets que surveillent certains économistes pour anticiper un ralentissement, il en est un particulièrement méconnu mais redoutablement révélateur : l'indice “carton”. Son principe est simple : observer la production de boîtes en carton ondulé, ces emballages qui expédient l'immense majorité des biens du quotidien. Et cet indicateur pourrait annoncer, avant les statistiques officielles, l'arrivée d'une récession.L'idée n'est pas nouvelle. Alan Greenspan, l'ancien président de la Réserve fédérale américaine, utilisait déjà les volumes de cartons produits pour prendre la température de l'économie. Pourquoi ? Parce que plus de trois quarts des biens non durables — nourriture, produits ménagers, vêtements bon marché, électronique, etc. — sont transportés dans ces boîtes. Si les entreprises réduisent leurs commandes de cartons, c'est souvent parce qu'elles anticipent une baisse de la demande. Et lorsque l'activité ralentit à la base même de la chaîne logistique, cela peut être le signe que la consommation se contracte.En 2024, l'économiste Jadrian Wooten, de Virginia Tech, a remis cet indicateur sous les projecteurs. Il relève une chute notable dans l'industrie américaine du carton : les fabricants prévoient de fermer environ 9 % de la capacité nationale de production. C'est un recul massif, sans équivalent depuis la grande crise de 2008. Une telle contraction implique aussi des conséquences directes : potentiellement des milliers d'emplois supprimés et une activité industrielle affaiblie.Ce mouvement n'arrive jamais par hasard. Si les producteurs ferment des lignes, c'est qu'ils ne reçoivent plus suffisamment de commandes. Et cette baisse des commandes reflète souvent un phénomène plus large : les entreprises vendent moins, donc elles expédient moins, donc elles emballent moins. En d'autres termes, l'indice carton agit comme un thermomètre placé au tout début du cycle économique.Si cette tendance se prolonge, d'autres indicateurs risquent de suivre la même trajectoire : ralentissement du PIB, recul de la production industrielle, puis montée du chômage. Car moins de cartons, c'est finalement moins de biens qui circulent, moins de consommation, et un tissu économique qui commence à se contracter.À travers un objet aussi banal qu'une boîte, l'indice carton rappelle une vérité simple : parfois, ce sont les signaux les plus ordinaires qui permettent de détecter, avant tout le monde, les tensions qui se préparent dans l'économie.

The housing crisis isn't a mystery — it's a political disaster. This episode dives into:

Cette semaine dans Demain N'attend Pas, on parle d'un angle trop souvent ignoré de la transition : la donnée.Car, si nos entreprises veulent réduire leurs émissions, elles doivent d'abord comprendre d'où elles viennent. Et ça, c'est un vrai défi de data Pour en parler, j'ai invité Rachel Delacour, une entrepreneure visionnaire et cofondatrice de Sweep, une plateforme Saas qui rassemble – enfin – toutes les données carbone d'une entreprise, de l'extraction des matières premières jusqu'à l'usage final des produits. Sweep, c'est un outil conçu pour que les entreprises disposent d'un vrai reporting carbone et surtout, pour qu'elles passent à l'action.Ce que j'ai aimé dans notre échange :Rachel n'était pas destinée à “faire de l'impact”. Elle venait de la tech, du SaaS, des startups. Puis à 40 ans, la réalité climatique lui tombe dessus — littéralement dans un avion, en lisant les rapport du GIEC.Elle se demande alors comment contribuer. De toutes les voies possibles, elle choisit celle qui lui permet de s'appuyer sur ce qu'elle a appris dans sa vie professionnelle passée et, au vu de l'urgence, d'être la plus rapidement efficace. Ce qu'elle sait faire : monter une entreprise, dans le secteur BtB, en aidant les grands groupes à comprendre leurs données et piloter leurs actions. Mais cette fois-ci, elle le fait au service de la décarbonation des grands groupe.Rachel a une ambition assumée : elle lève 100M€, recrute les meilleurs, et part convaincre les comités exécutifs partout dans le monde. Ca tombe bien, il faut de l'ambition pour réduire les émissions carbone à l'échelle !Elle ne moralise pas avec les entreprises, ne leur parle pas de leur responsabilité et de leur héritage. Elle parle business : réduction des risques, performance, avantage compétitif, ROI. Et ça marche.Un épisode qui rappelle une évidence : sans innovation, sans données, sans outils, la transition restera un slogan. Avec des entrepreneures comme Rachel, elle devient un chantier concret. Et je rajouterais : pour embarquer les entreprises, il faut qu'elles y voient leur intérêt économique et il faut parler leur langage.A l'heure des reculs écologiques, cette discussion nous rappelle que, si le chemin est étroit, il existe encore. A nous tous de nous y engager ! Je vous souhaite une très bonne écoute, ✍Vous voulez en savoir plus sur Sweep ?Allez voir leur site internet ici

La justice a prononcé ce jeudi 11 décembre la liquidation du groupe centenaire d'électroménager Brandt, fleuron industriel français, en grandes difficultés depuis son placement en redressement judiciaire. Au-delà du sort de la marque centenaire, c'est tout le secteur du gros électroménager «made in France» qui se trouve fragilisé, entre marché à deux vitesses, appareils plus durables et concurrence étrangère. Quelque 700 emplois supprimés seront supprimés dans l'entreprise, spécialisée dans l'électroménager, des réfrigérateurs aux fours en passant par les machines à laver. « C'est une terrible nouvelle, un choc et un coup très dur porté à l'industrie française », a réagi son président François Bonneau, après cette décision du tribunal des affaires économiques (TAE) de Nanterre, rapporte l'Agence France presse. Mais au-delà de Brandt, c'est tout un secteur qui est bouleversé et qui se retrouve en difficulté. La marque est connue de toutes les générations, car elle produit des objets que beaucoup de Français ont ou ont eu chez eux. Pourtant, le groupe fait face à une baisse continue des commandes et perd de plus en plus d'argent en produisant en France. Son propriétaire depuis 2014, l'Algérien Cevital, a d'ailleurs cherché des partenaires pour accompagner son développement, en vain. Car derrière ce dossier, c'est bien l'avenir de l'électroménager made in France qui se joue. Et paradoxalement, le marché national ne s'effondre pas. Il reste relativement stable, autour de 9 à 10 milliards d'euros de chiffre d'affaires par an. Les ménages continuent donc de s'équiper ou de renouveler leurs appareils, malgré l'inflation et la pression sur le pouvoir d'achat. Mais cette dynamique est à deux vitesses, et c'est là que les difficultés apparaissent. À lire aussiComment expliquer les difficultés de l'industrie européenne? Un marché à deux vitesses pénalisant le gros électroménager Le petit électroménager se porte très bien. Robots culinaires, machines à café, aspirateurs autonomes, ces produits connaissent un vrai succès. En revanche, le gros électroménager est à la peine. Fours, réfrigérateurs, lave-linge, les ventes reculent fortement. Comme c'est le cœur de métier de Brandt, on comprend mieux les difficultés du groupe. Les explications sont multiples. D'abord, l'immobilier. La France traverse une crise immobilière. On achète moins d'appartements et de maisons. Or, un frigo ou un lave-linge s'achète rarement par plaisir, on le fait lors d'un déménagement ou de l'aménagement d'un nouveau logement. Le marché est grippé, et celui de l'électroménager en subit mécaniquement les symptômes. Deuxième facteur: la durabilité des appareils. Ils durent plus longtemps et sont réparables. C'est une bonne nouvelle pour la planète et pour les consommateurs mais pas pour les industriels, qui vendent moins. Enfin, la France est saturée en équipements. La quasi-totalité des foyers sont déjà équipés. Pas besoin de racheter du neuf, sauf panne grave. Il n'y a ainsi presque plus de clients à conquérir. À lire aussiEn France, le mouvement de désindustrialisation s'accélère Concurrence internationale et explosion des marques distributeurs À ces difficultés internes s'ajoute la concurrence internationale. Aujourd'hui, près de la moitié des produits électroménagers vendus en France sont fabriqués en Chine, souvent à très bas prix. L'Europe de l'Est et la Turquie complètent ce paysage compétitif redoutable. S'ajoute à cela l'explosion des marques de distributeurs, qui tirent les prix vers le bas. Résultat: les prix s'effondrent et les marges pour les fabricants français ne suivent plus. C'est l'ensemble de ces mécanismes dont Brandt est victime. Pour autant, il ne faut pas enterrer l'électroménager français. Certaines marques s'en sortent encore, mais principalement sur le haut de gamme. Dans tous les cas, ces modèles ne recréeront pas les milliers d'emplois industriels d'hier, et ne remplaceront pas les grandes usines qui ont fait le renom du secteur au siècle passé.

#REDIFFUSIONEn 2022, Raphaëlle Bacqué et Vanessa Schneider publiaient Successions (Albin Michel), une enquête au scalpel sur les grandes dynasties familiales françaises : Arnault, Bolloré, Lagardère, Bouygues, Bettencourt…Quelles sont les histoires cachées derrière les passations de pouvoir ? Qui désigne l'héritier ? Qui contrôle, qui trahit, qui échoue ? Que se passe-t-il quand le “patron, c'est papa” et qu'on ne veut pas - ou qu'on n'est pas prêt - à reprendre le flambeau ?

Ep 470 Building Wealth   Keeping Your Money is  Rare Skill!   How to Actually Keep Your Money: Why Financial Literacy Matters More Than Income   Most people think their money problems would disappear if they just made more. But as financial coach Alanna Abramsky shared in this episode of Richer Soul, that belief keeps countless high earners feeling stressed, behind, and ashamed. Alanna has worked with realtors, lawyers, doctors, professional athletes—and even with impressive income, many still live paycheck to paycheck. The issue isn't intelligence or effort. It's that no one ever taught them the systems, habits, and emotional tools needed to keep money once they earn it.   This conversation is an invitation to step out of shame, build simple and sustainable systems, and take back control of your financial life—in a way that supports a richer, calmer, more intentional life.   Key Points from the Conversation: High Income Doesn't Equal Financial Confidence. Many people with strong incomes still feel financially anxious because no one taught them the fundamentals—intentional spending, tracking, and planning. Income is not the problem. Leakage is. Systems Beat Willpower Every Time. Alanna helps clients set up automations for savings, debt payments, and long-term goals. Once systems run in the background, money stops being an emotional decision. "Surprise" Expenses Aren't Surprises. Car repairs, holidays, insurance renewals, home maintenance—these predictable events often blow up a client's budget. Alanna uses "irregular expense funds" so these moments stop becoming emergencies. The Emotional Side of Money Needs Healing Too. Shame, avoidance, scarcity, or early trauma often drive money behavior. The numbers can't shift until the underlying story does. For many clients, therapy and financial coaching work hand-in-hand. Women Need Accessible, Judgment-Free Financial Education. A massive wealth transfer is coming—and much of it is going to women. Yet many women still feel intimidated or excluded from financial conversations. Alanna's mission is to change that by creating safe, empowering spaces to learn and lead.   Money Learning from Alanna: Alanna's core lesson is simple: Your money grows when your systems do. Most people try to "save whatever's left," then wonder why nothing is left. She flips the model: Pay yourself first Automate the habits you can't trust willpower to maintain. Track your net worth so you can see progress. Treat "irregular expenses" as predictable. Focus on behavior change more than spreadsheets. Money confidence isn't born from earning more—it's built from clarity and consistency.   Key Takeaway: Financial clarity isn't about perfection—it's about the right systems, the right support, and the courage to face your money with honesty. When you simplify your approach and automate your success, money becomes a tool for freedom rather than stress.   Bio: Alanna has been financial coaching for over 10 years and has helped more than 1,000 Canadians achieve their goals faster than they ever imagined. She started Broad Money with the mission of empowering women+ to take control of their financial futures, offering support and guidance every step of the way. Alanna helps people make money while they sleep by using personalized and actionable strategies that deliver results. Her goal is to help clients kick ass and conquer their finances with a clear, results-driven roadmap. Alanna currently lives in Toronto with her wife, Jacqueline, and their fur-baby, George. In her spare time, she can be found RV'ing across North America, mushroom foraging, visiting local breweries and wineries, and hiking.   Links: Website: www.broadmoney.ca   Instagram: @broad.money  LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/alannaabramsky/   #RicherSoul #FinancialLiteracy #WomenAndMoney #MoneyMindset #WealthBuilding #FinancialFreedom #PersonalFinance #LifeDesign #MoneyCoaching #IntentionalLiving   Watch the full episode on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@richersoul Richer Soul Life Beyond Money.

Dans cet épisode de Sensées, Jenny Chammas, mastercoach certifiée et fondatrice de Coachappy, explore un sujet aussi fréquent que tabou dans la vie des femmes leaders : la crise de couple et son impact direct sur la vie professionnelle. Même si la culture du travail valorise le contrôle émotionnel et la séparation des sphères, il est illusoire de croire qu'une crise de couple reste cantonnée au foyer. Ce que nous vivons intimement se déplace avec nous, influence notre énergie, notre confiance, notre concentration, et notre capacité à assumer notre rôle de leader.À partir de situations réelles observées dans ses accompagnements, Jenny détaille les quatre grands effets d'une crise de couple sur la vie professionnelle :l'impact émotionnel, souvent intense et difficile à contenir ;la fragilisation de la confiance en soi, qui se mêle aux exigences de performance ;les tensions au sein de la vie familiale, qui consomment une grande part de l'énergie mentale ;l'impact financier, souvent sous-estimé, qui génère stress et sentiment d'insécurité.Ce que vous saurez faire après écoute :– Comprendre pourquoi une crise personnelle affecte naturellement le leadership, la posture et la performance.– Repérer comment vos émotions non régulées se glissent dans les réunions, les décisions et vos interactions quotidiennes.– Identifier le lien entre surcharge mentale, fatigue émotionnelle et crise de couple.– Trouver une posture intérieure plus douce et plus réaliste pour traverser la période sans vous effondrer.– Distinguer ce qui relève de votre responsabilité professionnelle… et ce qui relève du soin de vous.Jenny rappelle qu'une crise de couple n'est pas un échec, mais un moment de réorganisation profonde. Même si elle ébranle, elle apporte également clarté, vérité et croissance personnelle. Beaucoup de femmes se jugent durement pendant ces périodes, alors qu'elles continuent de porter une charge professionnelle importante. Cet épisode vous invite à alléger cette pression inutile, à reconnaître votre humanité et à accueillir vos besoins réels pour retrouver de l'élan.Car la véritable question n'est pas “Comment continuer comme si de rien n'était ?” mais : “Comment traverser une crise de couple tout en préservant son énergie, son leadership et son bien-être professionnel ?”Pour être accompagnée dans cette période de turbulence, découvrez le programme Sensées, pensé pour soutenir les femmes leaders dans toutes les dimensions de leur vie : Cliquez ici pour en savoir plus.****Rejoignez la newsletter Sensées : elle vous donne accès à un concentré de coaching, d'inspiration et à un workshop offert chaque mois.

SPEAKERS Evan Nappen, Speaker 2, Teddy Nappen Evan Nappen 00:16 I’m Evan Nappen. Teddy Nappen 00:17 And I’m Teddy Nappen. Evan Nappen 00:19 And welcome to Gun Lawyer. Well, folks, I’m proud to say that Gun Lawyer has been nominated for Podcast of the Year by The Gundies. And The Gundies, it’s a really cool awards program in which they look to honor various voices and those who are influencers and writers regarding our precious Second Amendment rights. This is an honor, and I’m very proud to be nominated. And what I’m doing now is I am shamelessly asking for your vote, because with The Gundies, it’s you who vote. If you go to thegundies.com, www.TheGundies.com, thegundies.com, you’ll see there are 19 different categories for different things — influencer, writer, all kinds of stuff. And on there is Podcast of the Year. Please go there and vote for Gun Lawyer for Podcast of the Year. Evan Nappen 01:42 And by doing that, not only will you help promote the show, but because we focus on these horrible problems, particularly with a centered focus on New Jersey, because New Jersey is just where the brunt of the Second Amendment oppression takes place. This will help bring greater awareness nationally to our cause, to our fight against gun rights oppression. So, we can win Podcast of the Year nationally and more people will pay attention to New Jersey and what Gun Lawyer has to say. And if you vote, you can actually win prizes. They give prizes to folks, you know, randomly, who vote. Voting closes December 15. Okay? You can vote one vote per category every day. So, vote for Gun Lawyer every day. Okay? You can do it once a day. Evan Nappen 02:47 If you vote in all 19 categories, if you pick in all 19 categories, and it’s all free, by the way, and if you watch a video at the bottom of the page, you earn an extra vote for every category that day. There are prizes. Every time you vote, you’re automatically entered to win. And the grand prize is an all expense paid trip to The Gundy Awards, which takes place in Las Vegas. And in each category, there are Page – 1 – of 11 sponsors that have prizes. So, this is exciting and fun, and, you know, it would mean something to me and Teddy, if you would be so kind as to jump on thegundies.com and vote for Gun Lawyer. Evan Nappen 03:31 I would also highly recommend our good friend, John Petrolino, for top 2A writer. You know, John is just great, and man, does he cover New Jersey and so many other things as well. He’s such an in-depth great reporter, and he’s brought so many of these great issues to the forefront. You know, we’ve talked about a lot of the great work that John has done. So, give John a vote in the top 2A writer category. And, of course, our good friends at WeShoot, they were also put out there for Firearms Instructor of the Year. And I would ask you to consider the Tactical Rabbi, that’s right, Tactical Rabbi for Firearms Instructor of the Year, and Bul Armory for the Most Innovative Brand of the Year. So, there’s four of the categories with some suggestions. And so, if you’re inclined to do so, please jump on this. We have till December 15, and hopefully this will be successful. It will be a lot of fun for you, and maybe you’ll even win some prizes by doing it. Teddy Nappen 04:49 I will also say to everyone voting for us, for Gun Lawyer, it is critical, because we need to give national awareness. I don’t think people outside of New Jersey realize the damage that the Gun Owner Gulag has created, and New Jersey is the petri dish. This is where they test all their crazy nonsense. Evan Nappen 05:13 New Jersey is a gun owners hell. Teddy Nappen 05:14 Correct. Evan Nappen 05:15 New Jersey is a gun owners hell. I wish The Gundy’s had an award for, you know, worst state. You know, greatest gun owner hell. New Jersey would win that every year. Teddy Nappen 05:26 Anti-gunner of the year. Anti-gunner. Evan Nappen 05:28 No. Gun rights oppressionists award. The Top Gun Rights oppressionist state. It is crazy, but this is actually a positive award. So, they look to get the voices and the folks out there that are all going to bat for our rights. And everybody who’s nominated, I want to congratulate all the nominees across the board. They’re all out there, spreading the word, fighting the lame-stream media, and trying to get past the agenda that the anti-gunners try to control and their lies that they put out to get us disenfranchised of our rights. It really is a battle that we’re in, and this is yet another tool in that battle. So, go to TheGundies.com and give us your vote. Make your voice heard. Page – 2 – of 11 Evan Nappen 06:23 Say, you know, one of the things I wanted to talk about, and it’s something that comes up a lot. And every once in a while, I think it really pays to do this. I want to talk about the so-called intrinsically evil “assault firearms”. That’s right, you know, New Jersey has had a ban on so-called “assault firearms”, and that in its current form, it was enacted back in May of 1990 and became effective in 1991. During that one year period of time, they allowed you to render inoperable your so-called “assault firearms”, but if you did that, you had to file a Certificate of Inoperability. If you just rendered them inoperable and didn’t file the paperwork, it’s no good. It’s the same as having an actual “assault firearm”. They did allow registration of a handful of guns, which they called registration, where you could keep them. This included the AR-15 and the M1A and the M1 Carbine, but you had to pay $50 and register it. If you actually have a registered assault firearm, it allowed you to keep so-called large capacity magazines with that gun, as long as you use that gun in competition in the DCM (Director of Civilian Marksmanship), which no longer exists, by the way. It’s now the CMP (Civilian Marksmanship Program). Evan Nappen 07:55 Now, very few did that. But, of course, if you did register one of those guns, I want you to be aware of something. If back in 1990 to 91 you registered an “assault firearm”, registered “assault firearms” in New Jersey are not inheritable. Firearms normally are inheritable in New Jersey, and they pass to your heirs without any paper registration or license. But registered “assault firearms” are not inheritable. So, if you have a registered “assault firearm” and you don’t want to just lose it to the State, you may want to think about disposing of it sooner rather than later. So that it is something that is just not a loss to the estate. Now, if you have an unregistered “assault firearm”, well that is inheritable. Believe it or not, only registered assault firearms are not inheritable. Evan Nappen 08:18 Of course, you may say, well, how can a unregistered “assault firearm” be legal for inheritance? Well, first of all, if you rendered it inoperable, that’s not registration. So, those guns are inheritable. And if you stored your “assault firearm” outside of New Jersey and didn’t register it, then it can be inherited by your heirs. Now, they can’t bring it into New Jersey either, but they can, in fact, inherit it. So, it’s only registered “assault firearms” that are not inheritable. The “assault firearm” law is just full of quirky, bizarre garbage like this. And it is insanity. As far as a law being written, its one of the worst-written criminal laws ever written. Absolutely. It is essentially beyond complete comprehension. Evan Nappen 09:51 It is a very complicated and often contradictory, five-part definition of what is supposedly an “assault firearm”. And the reason it’s so complicated is that they really can’t be defined, because “assault firearm” is just a pejorative term. The original assault rifle, if you will, the assault rifle, you know, is the German Sturmgewehr. And that assault rifle was full automatic fire and semi auto. So, it was a select- fire weapon. So, assault firearms are not assault rifles and assault weapons, which you may have heard that term assault weapon, is what the Federal law at one point banned back in 1994. But that law went away in 2004, and it hasn’t come back. So, the Federal assault weapon ban has been DOA since 2004. New Jersey still has an assault firearm law, and neither of those are assault rifles, of which the traditional classic Sturmgeweher, a medium caliber firearm that would be select fire. Page – 3 – of 11 Evan Nappen 11:09 So, what New Jersey did was contrive this definition with this complicated five parts. The first part is a laundry list of about 67 named guns. Now, of these named guns, some of them I’ve never even encountered in the wild. Okay? I’ve never even seen some of these that are on this list, and some, I think, are just made up. Maybe they like read it on the internet somewhere and thought it qualified as an “assault firearm”. But if your gun is a named gun on the list, then it becomes banned by name. Then if it’s not on the list or it’s not exactly as named on the list, then the other part of the law identified any firearm manufactured under any designation which is substantially identical to any of the firearms on the list. Evan Nappen 12:07 So, the question became, well, what does “substantially identical” mean? I mean, even think about those two words for a minute – substantially identical. Well, identical means exact. Substantial means almost. How could something be almost exact? It’s like being a little bit pregnant. I mean, you are or you’re not. I mean, this is ridiculous. You now have to guess, when this law came out, is my gun substantially identical to a gun on the list? What does that even mean? I brought a challenge to that. It was in the case of State v. Merrill, and I won. It was on an MAK 90, where the judge tossed the assault farm law in the trial court. It was Judge Farren in Monmouth County in State v. Merrill. He tossed the law as being unconstitutional, not because of the Second Amendment, but tossed it because of being vague, unconstitutionally vague. A person could not understand from the law what’s banned. In order for a law to be valid criminally, you have to understand how to conform your behavior, and under this law, you couldn’t. Because no one could tell what “substantially identical” meant. Evan Nappen 13:13 Then along came a Federal lawsuit, after I won it in State court, trying to knock out the law. And in that case, the Attorney General named in the lawsuit filed the Attorney General Guidelines to save the law by defining what “substantially identical” meant in that part of the definition. He defined substantially identical as the 1994 Federal Crime Bill definition of a assault firearm that was feature specific, even though New Jersey didn’t have a feature specific ban. The ’94 Crime Bill is what became essentially New Jersey’s list of compliant guns or not, and that is what we’re still using to this day. Those guidelines from the Attorney General. So, when you talk about whether a gun is compliant or not, and you go to those guidelines, that’s where the substantially identical comes in. Evan Nappen 14:16 So, when you look at the list of guns, it says on there Colt AR-15 and CAR-15. And let’s say you have a Bush Master, you know, XM 15, or you have Davis, or whatever. It doesn’t matter is, but it’s like an AR- type platform. Is it substantially identical or not to this? How do we know? Well, that’s where the Attorney General Guidelines came in to save what was otherwise an unconstitutional law, which itself is questionable whether this. But the court upheld it based on this. Even though the question is, how did our legislators in 1990 know that their unconstitutional law that had a vague definition would be saved by a Federal bill passed in 1994, four years later? That’s pretty amazing. Their crystal ball there to know that, isn’t it? But somehow, that’s been what we’ve been living under. Page – 4 – of 11 Evan Nappen 15:12 Under the guidelines of the Attorney General, substantially identical gets defined as any semi-automatic rifle that has the ability to accept a detachable magazine and has at least two of the following features. You have to have two. And that would be a folding or telescoping stock, a pistol grip that protrudes conspicuously beneath the action of the weapon, a bayonet mount, a flash suppressor or threaded barrel designed to accommodate a flash suppressor and a grenade launcher. Now, I know a lot of you, you know, go out grenade launching on the weekend. So, beware of that one in there. If you look at these features that make a gun substantially identical or not, I mean, a bayonet mount? What the hell does a bayonet mount have to do at all with any of this? I mean, was it because of all the drive by bayonetings? It’s, it’s nuts, but this is what we live under. But the reason we have those guidelines is not because you find them in the law. You find those guidelines, saving the law’s ass, if you will, by defining the term “substantially identical” that I had gotten knocked out as unconstitutional in that State v. Merrill case. Evan Nappen 16:25 Additional definitions for assault firearm include a semi-automatic shotgun with either a magazine capacity exceeding six rounds, a pistol grip or folding stock. So, if you have a semi-automatic shotgun and it holds over six rounds. And let me just tell you, this is a great example of just how stupid the Attorney General Guidelines are. Because the Attorney General Guidelines, incorporating the Federal ’94 bill says about shotguns that it can’t exceed five rounds. Well, that’s crap. Completely wrong. New Jersey law says it can hold six. Can’t be over six. The guidelines say five but that’s because they didn’t know what they were doing when they passed the guidelines. It contradicts New Jersey’s law, okay? But with shotguns that are semi-automatic, all it takes is one feature. It’s not two. So, if you have a semi-automatic shotgun with a pistol grip, it’s an assault firearm. If you have a semi-automatic shotgun with a folding stock, it’s an assault firearm. If you have a semi-automatic shotgun that holds over six rounds, then it’s an assault firearm. Okay? It’s a one-feature deal on shotguns. Evan Nappen 17:38 Now, if you have a pump action shotgun, if you have a wonderful Mossberg 590 or a tactical Remington 870 or any other pump shotgun, you can have any damn feature you want on it. You can have a bayonet mount. You can have folding stock. You can have a magazine capacity of a tube that holds nine rounds. No problem. You can have a shroud on it. You can whatever you want on a pump shotgun. No problem. Pumps are not covered by this at all. So, trick out your pump shotgun to your heart’s desire, but be very careful when it comes to your semi-automatic shotgun. Evan Nappen 18:24 It also prohibited, under another section, a semi-automatic rifle with a fixed magazine capacity exceeding 10 rounds. However, the original definition in 1990 set a semi-automatic firearm with a fixed magazine capacity exceeding 15 rounds, and this included tube-fed .22s, your classic Marlin Model 60, and you know your Remingtons and Winchesters that were semi-auto and held over 15 rounds in the mag tube. But what happened was they became a laughing stock, New Jersey, over their ban on .22s, and it became detrimental to them trying to oppress our rights so badly that they actually amended New Jersey’s assault firearm law to exclude tube-fed .22s. So, if you now have a semi-automatic .22 rifle that has a fixed tubular magazine and holds over 10 rounds, it is not an assault firearm. It’s legal. Your Page – 5 – of 11 tube-fed, semi-auto .22 can hold as many rounds as the tube wishes, and is possible to hold. Not a problem. So, that’s how that works. Evan Nappen 19:45 And then finally, they throw in this ridiculous part or combination of parts designed or intended to convert a firearm into an assault firearm. Don’t you love when the definition uses its own words to define itself? Say, that isn’t vague or confusing, is it? Or any combination of parts in which an assault fire may be readily assembled if all those parts are in the possession or under control of the same person. So, you have that catch all of parts nonsense as well. So that is New Jersey’s assault firearm definition. Evan Nappen 20:18 Possession of an assault farm is extremely serious in New Jersey. It’s a crime of the second degree. It carries up to 10 years in State Prison, and it has a minimum mandatory of three and a half years, no chance of parole. If you get convicted of possession of an assault firearm, you’re looking at the judge’s hands being tied, and you will have to do a minimum of three and a half years with no parole in State Prison. Additionally, if you’re charged with assault firearm, you will be thrown in the Gulag, and there’s a presumption against you getting bail if you’re charged, not even convicted, just charged with possession of an assault firearm. New Jersey has lost its mind when it comes to this and so many other gun laws, but it’s always worth a review. I want to make it clear to my listeners just how bad it is, so that you don’t end up a GOFU on New Jersey’s idiotic assault firearm ban. Evan Nappen 21:20 Hey, let me mention our good friends at WeShoot. Of course, WeShoot is the range where Teddy and I shoot. They have great training and a beautiful range, right there in Lakewood, New Jersey, centrally located. They’re a great resource. You can get your CCARE certificate there so you can get your carry, ad you can get all kinds of training. They offer other training for a carry license from other states. They can offer you advanced training, great range, so you can hone your skills and stay on target. WeShoot. You go to weshootusa.com. Beautiful photographs. They’ve got the WeShoot girls there posing with great guns. You’ll love looking at that. And you can check out their pro shop where they have great deals. Great gear, great guns, and great folks at WeShoot, weshootusa.com. It’s a great place. We love it, and I know you will, too. Evan Nappen 22:21 Aso in this battle, this entire time, it’s been the Association of New Jersey Rifle & Pistol Clubs (ANJRPC). The Association of New Jersey Rifle & Pistol Clubs are in the courts right now battling the assault firearm law. I’m feeling more and more hopeful, folks that we’re going to see the Supreme Court take up assault firearms and large capacity magazine cases. New Jersey’s fighting it out. It may, in fact, be the New Jersey case that the Supreme Court hears down the road, maybe others. They’re proceeding pretty rapidly to the Supreme Court. We’re getting mixed decisions in the different jurisdictions, which also leads to the Supreme Court wanting to take the cases. It is really important that we finally get a case from the Supreme Court where they look at items that get banned. Page – 6 – of 11 Evan Nappen 23:11 The Supreme Court does have two cases this session that they’ve picked looking at the “sensitive places”, which is really important, because that will help fight New Jersey’s Carry Killer bill. It goes at one of the laws that New Jersey, in fact, has regarding property, private property, and whether or not it can be banned. They’re also looking at whether marijuana can be a disqualifier or not, whether that’s a lawful disqualifier that can take away your Second Amendment rights. They may finally eliminate Bang or Bong. You can’t have both. So, these cases will be very interesting, and they also can have much more far reaching consequences and help us in our battle to fight the gun rights oppression. So, these are things to look forward to. And your State Association, the Association of New Jersey Rifle & Pistol Clubs, is there fighting these issues out and filing amicus briefs in other cases, and also in the legislature with our paid lobbyists full time. Keeping an eye on the shenanigans going on down there. So, make sure you join the Association so you can stay updated and you can take action as you get those email alerts. It’s very important. So, join anjrpc.org today. Evan Nappen 24:36 And let me also mention my book, New Jersey Gun Law. It’s the Bible of Jersey gun law. It’ll help you stay legal in New Jersey and not fall into these traps and these things that we talk about, like the whole understanding of assault firearms. If you’re confused by what I said, you can read it slowly, carefully in my book, under the chapter assault farms. I put it in question and answer so anyone can understand it. I want you to understand it. I want my fellow gun owners not to be turned into criminals and to lose their gun rights. It’s why I wrote the book. So, get your copy today. Go to EvanNappen.com, EvanNappen.com, and get my book, New Jersey Gun Law. It makes a great holiday gift. Check it out, the 25th Anniversary Edition. And when you get the book, scan the front cover, the QR code right there, and you will get our link right to my archive, where you can download the 2025 Comprehensive Update. Of course, I’ll be doing updates for the new year, and you’ll want to get them. You’ll get notified of that and any other crazy changes that take place in New Jersey. We have to be eternally vigilant. Teddy, what do you have for us this week? Teddy Nappen 25:53 Well, as you know, Press Checks are always free. And this is something that you know when you see it, you have to think, what would the Left do if they had unfettered power? If they, you know, added more states and packed the court and made every illegal a voter? If they had unfettered power, what does that lead to? Well, I was flipping through Bearing Arms, and sure enough, a British man was arrested for a picture of himself posing with a shotgun. This is an article by Tom Knighton. (https://bearingarms.com/tomknighton/2025/12/01/british-man-arrested-for-picture-of-him-shooting- shotgun-n1230765) Evan Nappen 26:34 He was posing with the shotgun. Where? Teddy Nappen 26:37 Correct. In the United States! Yeah, of course, they got arrest the man for posing with something that’s across the entire continent. The British IT consultant was arrested after posting a photograph of himself holding a gun during the holidays in the United States. The case drew sharp criticism from Elon Musk Page – 7 – of 11 everybody as West Yorkshire. He was shocked after police visited then detained him over the image, which he says was taken legally on private property in Florida. Evan Nappen 27:05 Wait, there’s guns in Florida? Teddy Nappen 27:16 I know – shocker. The West Yorkshire Police later visited his home and advised him to be careful about what he posts online. Evan Nappen 27:27 What’s all this, then? What’s all this then? Teddy Nappen 27:33 Right! Yeah, and the officers did not ask to see any proof that he had taken the photograph in the U.S. as they then returned to his home at 10 pm and promptly arrested him. The bail documents referred showed there were allegations of possessing a firearm with a cause, with intent to cause fear of violence, as well as separate allegations of stalking linked to another photo. Evan Nappen 28:04 Are you sure this wasn’t a Monty Python episode? I mean, it’s unbelievable. Teddy Nappen 28:09 Yeah, and he was held overnight before being interviewed. So, they locked him up and said, all right, we’re gonna get you in the morning. Evan Nappen 28:17 They jailed him over it even. Good grief. Teddy Nappen 28:19 They dropped the charges. But then said, you better not lead any more incitement as you posted a photo. Evan Nappen 28:25 Oh, God, you can’t. Teddy Nappen 28:28 You can’t get any more Orwellian than that. Being arrested over a photograph. Not even possession of firearms, because they can’t do that in England. A photograph. Evan Nappen 28:41 Well, you know, I had a case similar, Teddy. Not quite that, but close, you know. When I had a case with a guy whose son had passed the New Jersey Hunter and was a New Jersey Hunter. He was posing with his gun. He just had a picture with his firearm. Nothing bad. No threats, nothing. And they Page – 8 – of 11 went and tried to cause a huge problem for him and his family. It was outrageous over just a picture of his son legally with a gun. And that was New Jersey. Now, luckily, he didn’t get arrested and criminally charged and thrown in jail. But still, you know, these things can happen even in New Jersey, and it’s getting worse and worse. So, we have to be very vigilant of this. And it shows you. I mean, the U.K. is just the, I would call them, the formerly Great Britain. Formerly Great Britain. Teddy Nappen 29:47 I just call it hell. Because what they are looking to do now, I just. I like to highlight these stories that have come up in the past, because unfortunately, the Left are very good at memory holing the utter insanity they pull. For instance, in the U.K., and this is from The Mirror by Kelly-Anne Mills. (https://www.mirror.co.uk/news/uk-news/autistic-girl-who-told-cop-30673891) Remember the autistic girl who got arrested for using “homophobic language” for calling the cop, oh, you’re my lesbian Nana. They dragged her to the police and promptly arrested her. Arresting an autistic girl, 16 years old, for saying she looks like my lesbian Nana, who she did have. Evan Nappen 30:34 She didn’t say it in a bad way. Teddy Nappen 30:36 No, she just said you look like my Nana. Evan Nappen 30:40 Yeah. Teddy Nappen 30:41 And it showed her being dragged out, which, or if you they go into like, for autistic people, can’t, they freak out if you even touch them. But the dragging her through in the massive footage, which, it’s just such an embarrassment. By the way, it was the West Yorkshire Police. I’m noticing a pattern being the Orwellian thought crime police. They outdid themselves with this one, which this came up recently. Do you remember that woman who was arrested for silent prayer? Evan Nappen 31:11 Oh, a thought crime. Thought crime, that’s good. Yeah, great. Teddy Nappen 31:15 Yeah, well, finally it came due where the West Midland Police were forced to pay 13,000 pounds to the woman for falsely arresting her. Teddy Nappen 31:27 For silently praying outside an abortion clinic. But take this as you will. She was still arrested for thought crime. This is coming right from the ADF International U.K. Utter insanity. (https://adfinternational.org/en-gb/news/silent-prayer-arrest-payout) And when I look at this, I see this is what the Left wants. They want you and I, Dad, to be dragged out and arrested for our speech, Page – 9 – of 11 because that’s the only way they can win. They can’t win in the battlegrounds of ideology. Showed that by them killing Charlie Kirk. Now they want to go for arresting you for your ideas. That is their goal. Evan Nappen 31:27 Good. Evan Nappen 32:03 We couldn’t do the Gun Lawyer show in the U.K. We’d be raided, jailed, and forget it. Yeah. I mean, you know, we still have a First Amendment here, and we love the entire Constitution, not just the Second Amendment. But we’re facing oppression of all our Constitutional rights, but at least we still have them. It’s really sad about how the formerly Great Britain has been just turned into a laughing stock and a place that I wouldn’t even want to step foot in. I mean, at one point I would have loved to have gone there. But nope, not anymore, man. Not a chance. They are just nuts, and their suppression of so many rights and what they’ve let happen to their country is just sad, very sad. Evan Nappen 32:57 Hey, let me tell you about this week’s GOFU. This week’s GOFU is an important GOFU because we have the holidays coming up. And, you know, we all, I’m sure, love to watch A Christmas Story, right? A Christmas Story is a classic with Ralphie. But the star of A Christmas Story, not just Ralphie, is the Daisy BB gun, right? The Daisy BB gun. And I’m sure many of you have fond memories if you were fortunate enough as a kid to have a Daisy BB gun. But I’ve got to tell you, BB guns in New Jersey are firearms, folks. Keep that in mind. A BB gun is defined as a firearm in New Jersey. You cannot just give a BB gun to your child, to your son or to your daughter. You cannot do that. It’s the same as if you just gave them a gun. Evan Nappen 34:01 If you buy a BB gun, it’s your BB gun. If you want to shoot the BB gun with your child, you need to be with them in the same way as if it is a modern cartridge firearm. You can’t just give them that BB gun to keep in their room, to go out in the woods alone and play with it and have fun like we did in the old days. You cannot do that. It is a firearm. You can lose your gun rights and even face criminal charges. And so can your child. So, the GOFU is, remember, air guns are firearms in New Jersey. Treat them the same as firearms in any way that you would want to give a firearm, okay? Gifting a firearm in New Jersey itself is not permitted without proper paperwork. So, you can’t buy any gun for anyone and just give it to them. They’re going to have to have a transfer done with paper, with a pistol purchase permit for handguns and a firearm ID card for long arms. And if they’re not immediate family, it has to go through a dealer. The only way you gift a gun in New Jersey is with full paperwork. So, that’s the GOFU. Keep it in mind during this holiday season. Evan Nappen 35:33 This is Evan Nappen and Teddy Nappen reminding you that gun laws don’t protect honest citizens from criminals. They protect criminals from honest citizens.
