Podcasts about Carlson

Listen to the full episode Influential right-wing pundit turned celebrity conspiracy-peddler, Candace Owens, just visited Russia for the St. Petersburg International Economic Forum. While at “Russia's Davos” she marvelled at the cleanliness and beauty of Moscow, explained that Americans were never given any real reason why Putin invading Ukraine was bad, and deflected questions about her potential presidential run. She's not alone. MAGA has increasingly found a warm place in its heart for Vladimir Putin and other strongman dictator-types (like Viktor Orban). Owens rubbed shoulders with accused sex traffickers, the Tate Brothers, fake martial artist and aging film star, Steven Segall, Trump's head of the Commission of Fine Arts, and representatives of the Taliban, North Korea, Iran, and China. In this reimagining of Russia—the same “evil empire” of GOP patron saint, Ronald Reagan—the post-Soviet dictatorship is poo-pooed as a danger to European democracies by a growing cadre on the right. Figures like Owens, Tucker Carlson, Megyn Kelly, Tim Pool, Nick Fuentes, and Marjorie Taylor Green all oppose US support for Ukraine and involvement in the war in Iran. In another interesting turn, they now also all oppose US support for Israel—which makes for some strange diagonalist bedfellows with certain figures on the left, like Hasan Piker.  Julian unpacks this story. Stay tuned for claims that Carlson and Green have been less harmful to Gaza than Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, as well as for erstwhile left-wing pundit Ana Kasparian's come-to-Jesus moment on Owens' show.

Tucker Carlson has remained a highly visible and polarizing figure, with several notable developments in the past few days across media, politics, and his business ventures. On the media front, Carlson has continued to push out new episodes and long-form interviews on his digital platforms, especially via X, where he regularly publishes hour-plus conversations with political figures, culture warriors, and controversial commentators. Recent installments have focused on recurring themes in his post-Fox identity: criticism of U.S. foreign policy, especially around Ukraine and Russia; attacks on establishment Republicans and Democrats alike; and arguments that legacy media misleads the public while he positions himself as an outsider voice. Outlets like Axios and The New York Times have continued to frame him as one of the most influential independent right‑wing broadcasters, emphasizing that his reach on social media frequently rivals or exceeds cable news audiences. In terms of business and professional developments, Carlson has kept building out his own media ecosystem. According to reporting from the Wall Street Journal and Semafor, he has been working to deepen the infrastructure around “Tucker Carlson Network”–style content: subscription offerings, direct‑to‑consumer video, and partnerships that let him bypass traditional television. Tech and media reporters have noted that his strategy is emblematic of a broader shift where high‑profile cable hosts exit legacy platforms and convert their personal brands into stand‑alone digital channels. Industry analysts at outlets like The Hollywood Reporter describe Carlson as a test case for how far a single personality can go relying on social engagement and paid memberships rather than a conventional network. Politically, Carlson's recent commentary continues to reverberate inside Republican circles. Politico and NBC News report that Republican candidates and influencers still aggressively court his approval, even though he no longer has a nightly Fox show. At the same time, Democrats and many mainstream commentators continue to highlight his past segments on immigration, race, and January 6 as examples of rhetoric they argue fuels extremism, keeping him in the middle of ongoing debates over media radicalization and disinformation. His earlier interview with Vladimir Putin, for example, is still being cited by critics and supporters as they argue over whether he is offering valuable dissent or serving as a conduit for authoritarian propaganda. Reactions to Carlson's latest monologues tend to fall along clear partisan lines. Conservative outlets like The Daily Caller, which he co‑founded, and other right‑leaning publications often amplify his critiques of the Biden administration and the national security state, framing him as one of the few figures willing to challenge bipartisan consensus. Liberal and centrist news organizations such as CNN, MSNBC, and The Washington Post frequently feature media analysts who portray him as emblematic of a post‑truth environment, scrutinizing his fact‑checking record and the impact of his narratives on public opinion. Carlson also continues to intersect with other high‑profile figures. Republican politicians, conservative influencers, and foreign political leaders appear on his show or reference his segments to reach his audience, while late‑night hosts, podcasters, and rival commentators regularly use him as a foil or punchline. This cycle of mutual amplification keeps his name woven into broader conversations about the future of the GOP, nationalism versus traditional conservatism, and the power of personality‑driven media.

We went deep into the Dylan Larkin discussion in Episode 129 of The Liberty Yell. We broke down what a realistic trade could be for the almost 30-year-old center, whether it makes sense for the Flyers right now, and how he would fit in with the team. We compared Larkin head-to-head with other (younger) center options the Flyers could potentially look at via trade in Matty Beniers, Mason McTavish, and Shane Wright.    We touched a tad on the John Carlson rumors and what we would be willing to pay for the 36-year-old's services, bridging a gap with younger defenseman on the team like David Jiricek and Oliver Bonk. Is it fair to expect Carlson to come in here and fix an extremely broken PP? Are they one guy away? We also discussed the possibility of the defensive core getting shaken up a little here (Seeler, Risto, or maybe even York?).    We reached all of your live comments and questions (shoutout Jerry) throughout the episode -- thanks to everyone who took their time to interact with us, it means the world.      Is Larkin worth the potential cost? Will he even accept a trade here? Will Detroit even trade him? We got into all of that and a lot more.    Subscribe, drop a rating, and follow us on X @TheLibertyYell for all of the Flyers talk you could possibly want EVERY SINGLE DAY.

Tucker Carlson's most recent news cycle has centered on his ongoing independent media operation, new interviews with polarizing figures, and the political ripples those appearances continue to create. According to the New York Times and Washington Post, Carlson remains focused on his “Tucker Carlson Network,” a subscription-based platform built around long-form video interviews and commentary, in addition to the show he distributes on X. He has continued to use X as his primary mass-audience outlet, releasing episodic monologues and sit-downs with culture war figures, populist politicians, and contrarian experts, positioning himself as an outsider alternative to legacy cable news. In the last few days, political outlets including Politico and Axios report that Carlson has been back in the headlines for his commentary on the U.S. presidential race, immigration, and the direction of the Republican Party. He has amplified criticisms of Republican leadership he sees as too accommodating to establishment interests, and he has continued to praise right-populist movements in Europe and North America, which keeps him central in debates over the future ideological direction of the right. Recent interviews highlighted by outlets like the Daily Mail and Newsweek include conversations with controversial foreign leaders and nationalist thinkers, reinforcing his image as a broadcaster willing to platform voices that traditional U.S. networks either avoid or frame more critically. These appearances have drawn a fresh round of criticism from media commentators at CNN and MSNBC, who argue that Carlson is normalizing authoritarian politics, while sympathetic commentators on conservative sites such as the Daily Caller and the Federalist describe him as one of the few American hosts willing to challenge U.S. foreign policy orthodoxy. On the professional and legal front, major legal developments tied directly to Carlson himself have been relatively quiet compared with the fallout that followed his departure from Fox News and the Dominion defamation settlement. Coverage in outlets like the Wall Street Journal and Variety notes that the bigger unresolved storyline is still the long-term impact of those events: Fox's programming shifts, the network's ratings recalibration after losing its top host, and the way Carlson's independent success on X and via subscription is encouraging other media personalities to consider leaving traditional cable platforms. Media critics in publications such as the Atlantic and Columbia Journalism Review continue to debate Carlson's influence, especially his role in blurring lines between journalism, entertainment, and movement politics. Supporters credit him with challenging elite narratives and building a new right-wing media ecosystem outside corporate control, while detractors argue his framing of issues like immigration, Ukraine, and election legitimacy contributes to polarization and distrust of democratic institutions. Across social platforms, Carlson's interactions with other high-profile figures—from politicians seeking his audience to online influencers eager for cross-promotion—underscore that he remains a power center in conservative media, even without a cable slot. His endorsements or critiques, delivered through interviews or offhand remarks, are still treated as meaningful signals within Republican politics and the broader populist right.

Jimmy and Americans' Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss a recent interview on Israeli Channel 13 in which Tucker Carlson delivered a "master class" dismantling Zionist talking points, telling the anchor that Israel "just murdered thousands of children in Gaza" and should "pause before using the phrase terror regime," while also noting that Israel is "not a democracy in any sense" since millions live under Israeli control without the right to vote.  When the Israeli anchor suggested that Netanyahu could not have "dragged" Trump into the Iran war, Carlson responded simply, "I saw it happen," implying blackmail or coercion—and called Trump "weak" for folding under pressure from Netanyahu and his US donors. Carlson argued that the US has no obligation to send weapons or lend military and diplomatic cover to Israel, and that no one has ever answered why that obligation exists, adding that America's standing in the world has "declined" because it is "implicated in some of the many crimes Israel has committed."  The Israeli newspaper Haaretz later wrote that Carlson's interview contained "only truths" and that "there wasn't one word that wasn't true," calling it a "perfect mirror" that evoked fury because it proposed an "alternative agenda to Israeli media: speak the truth." Plus segments on Jewish Zionist-supporting columnist John Podhoretz spreading antisemitic tropes and Mark Zuckerberg caught on tape explaining his diabolical plan to replace workers with AI. Also featuring Stef Zamorano and Mike MacRae. And a phone call from JD Vance and his personal handler! 

Joseph Wilson was loosing the battle to Kodak when he discovered the xerography machine. Then he made it sellable. 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 Simple 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. [Handyside Ad] Dave Young: Welcome to the Empire Builders Podcast. I’m Dave Young and that’s Stephen Semple. Welcome to the Empire Builders Podcast. I’m Dave Young and there’s Steve Semple. Welcome. Oh wait, I got stuck making copies of copies. See what I did there? Stephen Semple: You’re so clever. Dave Young: You know what I did there, right? Yeah. Stephen Semple: I saw it, yeah. Dave Young: Today we’re talking about Xerox. Stephen Semple: Talking about copies of copies. Dave Young: Copies of copies of copies. Stephen Semple: Oh, and back in the day there were a lot of copies. A lot of copies. Dave Young: Oh man. I have copier stories. Yeah. Stephen Semple: I bet. I think those of us of our genre- Dave Young: Honestly, so Xerox, and we’re going to learn the story of the Xerox corporation and we’re going to… I don’t know their whole story, but I can tell you this, the photocopier or before there was something else before that. There was carbon paper. Stephen Semple: Yes, yes. Dave Young: But nobody owned a printing press. Stephen Semple: Correct, yeah. Dave Young: And so I would make the case that a photocopier was the first social media meme sharing engine. Stephen Semple: Oh, because we could photocopy our butts and share it the office. Dave Young: No, no, no, no, not your butt. I mean, I don’t know what you do in Canada. Here, I remember as a kid going to coffee, but my dad, small town, small town America, and he went to coffee twice a day with his buddies, 10 o’clock and three o’clock. They’d go down to the local cafe and they’d sit around a table and have coffee, eight or 10 of them. And somebody would always have a copy of a copy of a copy of a copy of a joke. Stephen Semple: Right. Dave Young: A cartoon, a usually off color story and they’d pass it around and then somebody would take it and make another copy of it and share it somewhere else. But you couldn’t do that if you didn’t have a copier. Stephen Semple: Well, that’s true. Dave Young: So thank you, Xerox. Stephen Semple: For making our lives richer. Dave Young: And now we can just electronically copy stuff and shoot it off as a text and a meme. Stephen Semple: One of the things you’re going to love about this story is it involves a fire extinguisher. So I’ve got your attention. Dave Young: Oh, I am all in. Stephen Semple: You’re all in. And Xerox is still pretty big. They do 7 billion in sales, but back in the early ’70s, Xerox was a monster. It’s estimated that over 10 billion copies a year were being done. Dave Young: 10 billion. Stephen Semple: That’s a lot of copies of copies of copies- Dave Young: Yeah. Once people had it, they were like, “I’m a printer.” Stephen Semple: Of copies. Yeah. Dave Young: I’m a publisher now. Stephen Semple: Yeah. In 1973, they did 3 billion in sales, which would equate to about 20 billion today. And they were close to 90% of the copier market with profit margins close to 20%. That’s just huge. It was one of the most valuable companies in the world. Dave Young: Until there started to be some competitors, Xerox became the generic word for a photocopy. Stephen Semple: Correct. Dave Young: “Give me a Xerox of this.” Stephen Semple: Yeah. So our story starts back with Joseph Wilson in Rochester, New York, which as we also know, is the home of Kodak. And Joseph was the new president of a company called Haloid, which was a Rochester based company doing photographic paper that was founded in 1906. And frankly, they were getting killed by Kodak, which at that point was 90% of the industry. And so Joseph’s trying to make headway in the photography paper business and basically is just like get nowhere. No matter what he does, he just cannot seem to create traction. Dave Young: One of his problems, Stephen? Stephen Semple: Yeah. Dave Young: Haloid. Stephen Semple: Yeah, maybe. Dave Young: That’s not a good name. Stephen Semple: Yeah, maybe. But what he decides to do is look for new opportunities. He’s actively searching through the National Patent Archive. So meanwhile, we got to think about this. It’s the mid ’40s. World War II has recently ended and the GI Bill is out there and it’s really fueling the growth of service-based industries. Banking, insurance is exploding. White collar is becoming now the thing to do. The American office is now basically the new engine of the US economy, but it’s still pretty primitive and labor-intensive. You think about going back to your whole thing, how did you copy and share information? Things were typically retyped or it was typed with a carbon paper, which meant you had one copy or a single document. Dave Young: Yeah, like a mimeograph sort of a thing maybe. Stephen Semple: Yeah, yeah. Single document could take an hour. And secretaries were manually retyping documents using carbon paper which created smudges or like as you said, the mimeograph machines, which were clunky Dave Young: Or send it, I mean, if you need more of that, you send it off to a printer. You send it off to somebody that can load it up on a printing press. Stephen Semple: Yeah. And for the people who don’t remember mimeograph machines, because I barely remember them, they stank. Dave Young: They smelled wonderful. Stephen Semple: Oh God, they were foul. They were this like, oh my God. Dave Young: The teacher would come in with a stack of stuff and hand it out and everybody would smell it. You just put it up your face and inhale. Stephen Semple: It was instead of glute. Dave Young: Weird, weird purple-y ink. I don’t even know how it worked, but yeah. Stephen Semple: So anyway, so Joseph is searching through patent archives and he comes across this invention by Chester Carlson, who’s a physicist who has got really bad arthritis and was looking for a better way to make copies. And Carlson had created, I got to read this, created an electrophotographic apparatus for dry writing. A process he turned xerography. Dave Young: Xerography, yes. Stephen Semple: There we go. Dave Young: And Haloid finally has a better name. Stephen Semple: Exactly. But the prototype was clumsy. It was large. It had been rejected by lots of people, but it caught Wilson’s eye. He could see the potential to revolutionize the office. And so it’s 1946 and he makes this big gamble. He purchases the patent for $10,000. Dave Young: Wow, okay. Stephen Semple: At that time, Haloid’s annual revenues is just a little over 100 grand. Dave Young: All right, man. Stephen Semple: So that’s a big bet. Dave Young: Huge. Stephen Semple: And the challenge was he had to turn this clumsy prototype into a viable commercial product. And there were a lot of challenges including the high heat from the fuser. It’s basically a toaster oven inside of a unit that bakes toner onto paper. Dave Young: Yeah. It puts a hydrostatic image of whatever’s on the paper on a blank piece of paper and little tiny particles of toner stick to that image and then you bake them in. Stephen Semple: Yeah. Dave Young: The little tiny microplastic things. Stephen Semple: And yes, it can catch fire. More on this later. Dave Young: Yeah. That’s why when you’re done making a bunch of copies, it all comes out warm. Stephen Semple: Yeah, exactly. So to raise money, Wilson sold some personal stock. He downsized a factory, did a bunch of things, raised about $12 million, which would be equivalent to about 140 million today and put it into development. So in 1954, after nine years of development, he has the first copier. It weighs 650 pounds. Dave Young: Sure. Stephen Semple: And it’s called the Xerox 914 because it used 9×14 paper. Dave Young: 9×14, that’s a choice. Stephen Semple: Right. Dave Young: Okay. Stephen Semple: So in addition to the $12 million that they invested, they’ve also got millions of dollars in debt. Dave Young: I’m stuck on the 9×14, Stephen. I’m thinking it’s the size of an accounting ledger, something like that. Stephen Semple: I didn’t look into why that size or… Because again, a lot of times what becomes standards change. Dave Young: Yeah. But see, that’s why you do what you do on this podcast and I do what I do. I’d have gotten stuck researching this into the 9×14 and followed that off into the woods and it would be a whole different podcast. Stephen Semple: It would be. It would be probably better. Dave Young: Oh, I don’t know about that. Anyway, I interrupted you again. Stephen Semple: So they’ve invested all this money. They’re millions in debt. They finally got a prototype and they basically say, “Okay, here’s what we got to do. We got to find a production partner to make this happen because we’re not going to produce this thing.” Dave Young: 600 pounds, yeah. Stephen Semple: Because that’s not what we do. So Wilson approaches IBM who basically at that point is a rising tech leader. Dave Young: Sure. Stephen Semple: And a lot of people don’t realize how old IBM is. I’ve got a picture of an old IBM cheese cutting machine. Dave Young: Yes, yeah. Stephen Semple: They were around forever. But anyway- Dave Young: I did a college internship at IBM. Stephen Semple: Oh, did you really? Wow. Dave Young: Where they made copiers. Yeah, I got copiers. Stephen Semple: Oh yeah. Oh, this comes back. Dave Young: Yeah, yeah. Stephen Semple: So IBM’s being run by Thomas Watson Jr. and he rejects the idea because basically it’s going to be about a $10,000 price tag and it’s going to fill a room all just for copying. He thinks this is a really, really bad idea. So Wilson doubles down, mortgages everything to make it themselves and they’re still facing these huge challenges. They meet a guy who works with equipment manufacturer AMF who’s developed this brand new sales strategy that he’s using for selling bowling alley equipment. Dave Young: Oh, is this the lease purchase? Stephen Semple: Yes, sir. Yes. So this is this brand new idea. What they decide to do is to lease the Xerox 914 for $95 a year and it would include 2,000 copies plus a nickel for each additional copy. Dave Young: Okay. So they’re selling copies, not machines. Yes, yes, yes. Stephen Semple: Right. Dave Young: Yeah. Stephen Semple: Here’s where it gets funny. It’s September 1959. The Xerox 914 makes its public debut in Manhattan. And during the demonstration, the machine bursts in the flames. Dave Young: Perfect. I’ll take three. Stephen Semple: Well, here’s the funny thing is it becomes this spectacle. It attracts onlookers and in fact the event is a resounding success. Dave Young: Yes, because the smart people will go, “Oh, they’ll fix that.” Stephen Semple: Right. Dave Young: Look, the copies came out, but they’ll fix the fire thing. Stephen Semple: Here’s what they did. Instead of re-engineering the device, remember, this is the late ’50s. The world’s a different place. Instead of re-engineering device, Wilson’s team ingeniously packages it with a fire extinguisher that they rebrand as the scorch eliminator. Dave Young: Hell yeah. Stephen Semple: Honest to God, I cannot make this up. The scorch eliminator. Oh, instead of re-engineering it, we’ll just give everybody a free fire extinguisher. Dave Young: That’s fantastic. I love that. So you could fill the paper tray with dough and pizza would come out the other end. These guys are geniuses. Stephen Semple: It’s a year later. It’s the 1960s and the machine is now available nationwide and it’s like a resounding earth-shattering success. 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] Dave Young: Let’s pick up our story where we left off and trust me, you haven’t missed a thing. Stephen Semple: It’s a year later. It’s the 1960s and the machine is now available nationwide and it’s like, a resounding earth-shattering success. Production basically started at 50 per month and quickly went to 100 a day. At the end of the first year, they leased 200,000 [inaudible 00:14:32]. Dave Young: Well, this whole story, this is proof of what a good idea it was. Stephen Semple: Oh, absolutely. Dave Young: People don’t care if it catches fire as long as I get some copies out of it. Stephen Semple: Yeah. And the copier room becomes a new social hub. It becomes the way we share jokes. Dave Young: You want to make sure it has some overhead sprinklers. Stephen Semple: Well, you’ve got the scorch eliminator. You’re good. The company gets officially renamed Xerox Corporation and really it launches the information revolution. The stock quadruples, revenue soared at 250 million. Now, remember IBM? Dave Young: Oh yeah, they come around. Stephen Semple: The guys who rejected the idea. So the number of copies being made annually in the United States surges from 20 million to over 9 billion with Xerox basically dominating. And IBM, remember, took a pass, but they decided to enter the business in the early 1970s. They create their own copier. Now- Dave Young: They figured out that they were the biggest customer of Xerox. Stephen Semple: Yeah, essentially. Yeah. Dave Young: Yeah. Stephen Semple: Now, Joseph had a choice at this point. He knew they were leveraging his technology, but he also knew that it would be hard for him to win on legal grounds alone. So what he decided that he needed to do was to out innovate them. Dave Young: Okay. Stephen Semple: And so what Joseph Wilson envisioned was an office of the future because he saw computers coming. Remember, this guy was a visionary. He saw computers coming. Dave Young: Oh, yeah. I love this guy. Stephen Semple: But the problem, computers were large, difficult to use, but he was like, “I saw what happened with the photocopier, it went from being massive to small. Computers, same thing’s going to happen.” Dave Young: Yeah, yeah. Stephen Semple: So he decided to invest the equivalent of $20 million to establish PARC, the Palo Alto Research Center. Now, he hired a top computer scientist from ARPA, Robert Taylor, and gave him a clear mandate, “Pull together the brightest folks and create the next technological revolution.” The goal was for it to be this visionary think tank to leapfrog everybody. Here’s what they created. Gary Bernier and I did another podcast on this, which talked about this failure of Xerox. And there’s something I didn’t realize until doing this research, which kind of filled in a blank. So I actually recommend people go back and listen to that podcast. But here’s what they created, networking, the mouse, and the graphical user interface. If Xerox had developed that today, Xerox would be the giant of the industry. Could you imagine? Dave Young: Did they also figure out printing to like laser printing? Stephen Semple: I’m not sure whether it was laser printing- Dave Young: I’m sure who- Stephen Semple: But they did invent the whole idea of what you see is what you get, like that whole idea that the screen… But I’m not sure whether it was laser or not. Dave Young: Basically, when I was at IBM, that’s what they were making, were photocopiers that were also laser printers. You could go photocopy something by standing at the machine or you could send a document to it and have it printed. Stephen Semple: And so here’s the interesting thing because I’d always wondered why did these things not get to market? And here’s what actually happened. Before these things were finally created in terms of prototype level, Wilson died and the executives who were basically under him took over and they didn’t have the vision and they saw the paperless office as cannibalizing their business. Kind of like Kodak. Remember Kodak developed all the stuff for digital cameras and went, “Oh, well, we can’t do this because it’s going to cannibalize our business.” Dave Young: Yeah. WYSIWYG, mouse. That’s not the business. Stephen Semple: Right. Well, and remember we did an episode a little while ago where we were talking about the iPhone and the brilliance of Steve Jobs. He was willing to cannibalize their own business to make that happen. When you’re unwilling to cannibalize your own business, you got a problem. This is the same thing that killed Kodak. It’s the thing Jobs overcame to create the iPhone. So speaking about Jobs, the idea for the Mac came from a visit at PARC. In 1979, Jobs negotiated a tour of PARC in exchange for allowing Xerox to invest in Apple’s pre-IPO stock. And basically Jobs saw all this stuff, saw the mouse, saw the graphical user interface and went, “Holy crap, this is the future. This is the future.” So again, when Gary and I did this episode talking about Xerox and the failure of Xerox and the success of, har, Palo Alto, I never realized the timing of the death of the founder. Dave Young: Yeah. Stephen Semple: And it explains so much in terms of the execs not getting the idea. He would’ve. Joseph would’ve. Dave Young: Oh, I think so. Yeah, for sure. Stephen Semple: He would’ve been all over it. And Xerox would be a different company today. Dave Young: Yeah. Pretty amazing. Stephen Semple: But the things that I really loved on this is, again, Joseph was looking, he saw this world trend. He was in the photo paper business and he saw this whole idea of a copier, but also greater than that, it wasn’t just the idea of the copier. He saw what was the importance of the office and what was going on in office space. And the other part that I loved, and then proactively went looking for innovative ideas. And the part that I really love the most is they didn’t let the fire stop them. Dave Young: I do. Yeah, that’s so great. I don’t know. Yeah, some people say that’s a negative, but here’s a fire extinguisher. Stephen Semple: Right. Now granted, it was the late 50s, early 60s, different era. Dave Young: Here’s the thing, Stephen, offices can be kind of boring. And if you can introduce the prospect that there’s going to be a fire down in the copy room every now and then, there’s something to talk about while you’re standing around the water cooler. So when I worked for- Stephen Semple: It’s a whole different thing of lighting a fire under people’s ass. Dave Young: Oh yeah, yeah. I keep an emergency bag of marshmallows in my desk drawer in the hope that the copier catches fire. I did my college internship at IBM. It was a paid internship. So I can legitimately say I worked for IBM back in the day. It was back in the day when they actually manufactured stuff. IBM made machines. Now they just… I don’t even know what they do. They consult? Do they- Stephen Semple: There’s still a lot of IBM technology in the backgrounds, like with servers and things along… How much they manufacture versus just license, that I don’t know. Dave Young: So they’re a software and consulting company and felt all of that. But in 1984 they were still manufacturing, I worked for their Boulder, Colorado plant and it was 5,000 people working there. Stephen Semple: Amazing. Dave Young: And they made floppy drives and printers and printer/copiers. So you could buy a photocopier/printer the size of a large deep freeze and they’d install it. And I think they probably same thing, probably same business model. You’d pay by the copy, you’d rent the machine. One of the coolest things was that they had a laboratory at that facility. And in the laboratory, they had a copier lab where they had Xerox and Canon and all the other competitors, they had machines installed. They would call Xerox and say, “Hey, we need a machine, bring it here, install it in the lab and we want the usual maintenance agreement. So you got to send a Xerox guy to come maintain this thing.” And they would run that machine all day long making test patterns. They would print test patterns all day long and then evaluate them, put them under the microscope, see where that machine was performing and how it performed against theirs. I mean, it was kind of a cool lab. Who does that? Stephen Semple: So the other thing I just want to add on Xerox before we finish off, because I forgot to mention this as one of the lessons and this is actually probably the most important lesson. And that is, they looked at the guy selling bowling alley equipment and did the leasing. That was brand new, but they did an interesting twist to it that I think can be overlooked in terms of the real power of what they did. Because sure, leasing made it easier to purchase, but there’s two additional things that they did that made it easy to purchase 2,000 copies included. Which meant immediately if you’re going, “I’m leasing this for 100 dollars a year, 2,000 copies. Oh, that means my copy is so many cents a copy.” Dave Young: And if I never make another copy, yeah. Stephen Semple: Right away I’m saving money. So it allows for the financial justification becomes really easy. But here’s the other thing that becomes wild is, when I put the machine in, I’m not saying to people, “Hey, be careful how much you use this.” My goal is I want 2,000 copies to happen. Once I create the habit of people creating copies, it’s now embedded in the business. Dave Young: And then you have bean counters that tell you… Yeah. Stephen Semple: Well, could you imagine how different it would be is if it was less money, $50.05 a copy, you’d be telling everybody, “Now be careful how often you copy.” Dave Young: Yeah, but even then they were. Stephen Semple: Right, no, but the point is it allowed the habit. It allowed the habit to happen. It was just because you wanted to use up the 2,000, 2,000 copies. So anyway, I just think there was brilliant, especially for brand new technology, a brilliance in terms of how they structured that lease. Dave Young: They found an interesting business model to copy- Stephen Semple: They did. Dave Young: In a completely unrelated field. Stephen Semple: They did. Dave Young: And that’s the benefit of getting outside of your category to look for innovation. Stephen Semple: And then put a twist on it that eliminated friction of using that equipment because the first 2,000 copies were free. Anyway, I just thought it was brilliant. I just wanted to point that out. Dave Young: Yeah. I love, what was his name again, Wells? Stephen Semple: Joseph Wilson. Dave Young: Wilson. Well, I know there’s a W in there. Joseph Wilson. Stephen Semple: Yeah, Joseph Wilson. Yeah. Dave Young: All right. It was a good he didn’t name it Wilsonography. But I love it. I love the Xerox story. Thank you, Stephen.

The sniping among right of center media personalities in the United States in recent months has been a non-stop exchange of barbs and insults. And it has become very, very ugly of late. A central figure in this weird ecosystem is Tucker Carlson, former Fox News host, now a successful independent podcaster with millions of followers and extensive reach. Carlson has sparked controversy and outrage for many reasons, but we focus in this podcast on his comments on Israel, wealthy American Jews, AIPAC, the Republican Jewish Coalition and his very strong suggestion that Israel and Jews control the White House and, therefore, America. Carlson is outraged that President Trump chose to go to war against Iran and asserts boldly and often that he was bullied into doing so by Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu. Even worse, in acting in this way, Carlson maintains that Trump put the national interest of Israel ahead of America's.On Tuesday, May 16, one of Israel's top television anchors, Udi Segal, interviewed Carlson to challenge many of his claims. It was a feisty exchange, to put it mildly. I spoke with Udi Segal the following morning about why he felt it was important to give Tucker oxygen (as I like to say)? Why amplify his voice? It's not an everyday thing - to interview a top journalist about his interview with another journalist. Talk about inside baseball! But this was important. Udi challenged Carlson for defending Putin's attack on Ukraine as being defensive and eminently justifiable, while insisting that Israel is a terrorist state. Genocidal. We all need to know what Tucker Carlson and those of his ilk are saying and doing because their simplistic demagoguery is mesmerizing a large segment of the population. And that is dangerous. His ideas and views are also dangerous - and based in a malevolent agenda. Carlson loves to bellow that he asserts facts, when he does nothing of the sort. He peddles gutter prejudice and bitterness but manages to present himself as a thoughtful, analytical, compassionate man with laudable values. He is anything but.I spent more time than I care to admit in the last week studying Carlson's interviews and monologues, especially those pertaining to Israel and the war. Some say he's an apologist for Islamists. Have a listen (or watch). You decide.The emergence of a robust independent media sector that is openly hostile to Israel Jews and promotes deeply concerning ideas (facts, as Carlson calls them) is a harsh reality. This increasingly influential cohort asserts that Jews are disloyal, evil, violent. Immoral, and subversively controlling and manipulating America and other nations with their money and wily ways. We have a serious problem.And we should really pay careful attention to this. It's not just a Jewish issue.

Welcome to Country Proud Living "Where Nurturing Spaces Empower Your Life and Everyday Feels a Little More Like Home." This episode is dedicated to Diane Carlson Evans of Helena, Mont., she passed away peacefully on May 20, 2026, after a long and courageous battle against cancer. The daughter of a dairy farmer and a nurse, Diane was born in Buffalo, Minnesota.

Jason Zengerle, staff writer at The New Yorker examines Tucker Carlson's transformation from an idealistic neocon praising accuracy and The New York Times, to the Fox face of the highest rated show in U.S. cable news history, and finally to an online conspiracy theorist peddling stories about Jewish control and how he was attacked by a demon.The author of the new book “Hated by All the Right People: Tucker Carlson and the Unraveling of the Conservative Mind,” discusses Carlson's long and complex relationship with President Trump, his influence on conservative politics, and whether he might pursue the presidency as MAGA's self-proclaimed redeemer, after breaking off with the administration over the Iran war.The Hub is Canada's fastest growing independent digital news outlet.

A memoir of a marriage deeply rooted in love, faith, and literary art, featuring excerpts from Pulitzer Prize winner Oscar Hijuelos' final, unpublished novel, Blue AntiquityIn A Writing Marriage (Regalo Press; hardcover, May 12, 2026, $30.00), Lori Carlson-Hijuelos reflects on the wonder of her union with Oscar, her soulmate. To write their love story, Lori chose a sacred place: the library of a nineteenth-century cathedral in her upstate New York hometown. True to their partnership in life, she created a work of collaboration, with Oscar's voice, views, and presence shining through in excerpts from his unpublished fiction opus, Blue Antiquity, which he was working on at the time of his death. A unique blend of memoir and fiction, A Writing Marriage illuminates Lori's life with Oscar, whom she met in 1981, nearly a decade before he became the first Latino author to win the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction, and who she wed in December 1998. In an interview, she can talk about:  The power of writing to create and remake worlds and reveal the writer - while reading her husband's final, unpublished novel, Lori was struck by how the protagonist—an academic with a passion for archaeology and the son of Cuban immigrants—mirrors Oscar. In excerpts from Blue Antiquity, she captures Oscar's zest for life, fascination with ancient civilizations, and spiritual development.The hallmarks of a foundational marriage, the kind devoted to serving, nourishing, and empowering each other, and why cositas, the “little things” that mark the way spouses treat each other, matter—whether it's celebrating birthdays or holding hands.How writing has helped her as she deals with the profound grief and reality of widowhood - As Lori reflects, the word most used to explain what should happen to someone after the death of a spouse is healing. She prefers the verb reconstructing. “Reconstruction is what I am encountering.”Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/arroe-collins-like-it-s-live--4113802/support.

This hour Henry is joined by Aaron Rupar from Public Notice Newsletter, he chats up FOX 9 News Anchor Kelcey Carlson, plus we have Bite of the Night and Headlines.

In this episode, hosts Ray Powell and Jim Carouso sit down with retired U.S. Ambassador to the Philippines MaryKay Carlson, who led America's embassy in Manila from July 2022 to January 2026, one of the most consequential periods in the modern history of the U.S.-Philippine alliance.Ambassador Carlson takes us inside the alliance at a moment of dramatic transformation: the 75th anniversary of the U.S.-Philippines Mutual Defense Treaty, the 80th anniversary of diplomatic relations, the 10th anniversary of the 2016 Arbitral Award on the South China Sea, and the Philippines' year as ASEAN Chair under President Ferdinand “Bongbong” Marcos Jr.. She walks us through the most dangerous flashpoints in the West Philippine Sea: the June 2024 ramming at Second Thomas Shoal (Ayungin) that cost a Filipino sailor his thumb, and the August 2025 Scarborough Shoal incident in which a Chinese Coast Guard cutter collided with its own PLA Navy destroyer while chasing a Philippine vessel.We dig into the strategic geography that makes the Philippines irreplaceable to America's Indo-Pacific strategy; the largest Balikatan exercise in history; the expansion of EDCA sites; the new $2.5 billion Philippine Enhanced Resilience Act; the new Luzon Economic Corridor (with Japan); the U.S.-Philippines 123 civil nuclear agreement; and the 19% Trump tariff Carlson openly wishes had been much lower. She offers a candid read on China's Ambassador Huang Xilian's successor, Jing Quan, the limits of the ASEAN Code of Conduct, and what actually deters Beijing's gray-zone aggression in the South China Sea.If you follow U.S.-China competition, the U.S.-Philippines alliance, ASEAN, Philippine politics, the Marcos administration, Indo-Pacific strategy, the South China Sea, or U.S. foreign policy under the second Trump administration, this is essential listening from someone who lived it up close.

How do we move students from simply talking about truth, goodness, and beauty to actually living those ideals out in everyday life? In this episode of BaseCamp Live, Davies Owens is joined by Sharon Carlson for a thoughtful conversation about what it means to develop an “operational theology” , a faith that shapes not just beliefs, but daily decisions, relationships, failures, and future plans. Sharon draws from decades of experience in classical Christian education, student formation, counseling, and college advising to explore how schools and parents can help students connect theology to real life. Together, they discuss: Why students often struggle to apply Christian truth in practical decisions What “the good life” actually means from a biblical perspective How parents and schools can respond redemptively when students fail Why discipline moments can become discipleship opportunities The difference between knowing Christian virtues and becoming more like Christ How theology helps students navigate anxiety, uncertainty, and major life decisions Why “the best next step” matters more than fear of making the “wrong” decision Sharon also shares insights from mentoring students through college and career decisions, helping them understand that God's will is ultimately about being conformed to the character of Christ, not simply finding the perfect school, job, or path.

Tucker Carlson recently dismantled billionaire Kevin O'Leary by exposing that his massive planned Utah data center, which will be multiple times the size of Manhattan and consume as much energy as New York City, will create only 2,000 jobs, compared to New York's 5 million, while the project relies on taxpayer subsidies and tax breaks without giving taxpayers any equity in the company. O'Leary deflects by claiming AI will create "millions of new jobs" but cannot name a single one, and pivots to scaremongering about China and Taiwan, prompting Carlson to note that every prior technological revolution—including the internet—coincided with rising suicide rates, addiction rates, and declining life expectancy.  Jimmy and Americans' Comedian Kurt Metzger praise Carlson for being the only major media figure challenging billionaires like O'Leary, and highlight Matt Walsh's rare correct take that tech gurus have no answer for what happens to the millions who lose their jobs to AI, offering only "Boo China!" as a justification. Jimmy concludes that the point of the two-party system is to keep Americans divided against their neighbors so they don't unite against their real enemies—billionaires like O'Leary—and that the only way out is a worker strike with a single demand: publicly funded elections. Plus a segment on Fox News' freakout in China over a parking ticket. Also featuring Stef Zamorano and Mike MacRae. And a phone call from Jeff Bridges!

On a special 200th episode of BS we discuss Owen Benjamin's take on Nick Fuentes and his Tucker Carlson appearance, how the Kevin Hart roast offended everyone, whether alien disclosure is always going to be this boring, whether the government is bringing demons into our dimension, and why this Adam Sosnick guy even tries.For simple, online access to personalized and affordable care for Hair Loss, ED, Weight Loss, and more, visit Hims.com/BROKENSIM.

I haven't been this struck or fallen in love this fast with a book in my life. I started reading it to my wife and couldn't stop.I don't usually react to books this way. I picked this one up, got a few pages in, and went upstairs to get my wife so I could read it to her. I thought I'd read a page or two. I ended up reading fifty or sixty pages out loud before we had to get on with the day. I've never done that before with any book connected to this podcast.So that's really why I was so excited to have this conversation.This is a discussion with Lori Carlson-Hijuelos about her book A Writing Marriage, and about the life she shared with her husband, the writer Oscar Hijuelos. We talk about writing and faith and the literary world, but mostly we talk about marriage. What it looks like when two people build a life together over decades. And what it's like when that life changes after one of them is gone._____LINKShttps://lorimariecarlson.comA Writing Marriage at Bookshop_____I have had the pleasure of talking to some of the leading authors, artists, activists, and change-makers of our time on this podcast, and I want to personally thank you for subscribing, listening, and sharing 100-plus episodes over 100,000 times.Please subscribe to this Podcast, In Conversation… with Frank Schaeffer, on your favorite platform, and to my Substack, It Has to Be Said.

Er galt als einer der wichtigsten Botschafter des US-Präsidenten. Auf Fox News und anderen Kanälen verbreitete er treu jede Botschaft des Präsidenten, heizte die Stimmung für ihn auf und rechtfertigte jede Handlung seines Freundes im Weißen Haus. Zumindest bis Donald Trump beschließt im Iran einen nicht enden wollenden Krieg zu beginnen. Die Rede ist vom Moderator und Meinungsmacher Tucker Carlson. Der hat sich binnen kürzester Zeit von Trumps liebsten Mann am Bildschirm zu einem seiner größten Feinde entwickelt. Wir sprechen heute darüber, wie das bekannteste Sprachrohr des Präsidenten plötzlich vom Glauben abgefallen ist, wie sehr das die MAGA-Bewegung belastet und ob Carlson gar selbst gerne Präsident werden möchte. Zu Gast ist Rieke Havertz. Sie ist internationale Korrespondentin bei der Zeit und moderiert gemeinsam mit Klaus Brinkbäumer den US-Podcast der deutschen Wochenzeitung Zeit, "Ok, America".

Silicon Bites Ep337 | 2026-05-12 | Assets or idiots? Delusional or disingenuous. Politics as usual, or treacherous behaviour? Do they work for the Kremlin or for themselves? Iuliia Mendel's 96 Minutes with Tucker Carlson and the question that decides what they are, and whose interests they work for. 11–12 May 2026 — The Day After Mendel's Interview Drops — and the Day Russia's Propaganda Machine Lights It Up. We now have Yermak's arrest, the Carlson interview and now some Ukrainian biolabs nonsense investigation being launched in the U.S. Are these things possibly connected? We'll explore that in another episode tomorrow. For now, let's turn to two figures that give a very convincing impression of acting as Russia assets.----------SUPPORT THE CHANNEL:https://www.buymeacoffee.com/siliconcurtainhttps://www.patreon.com/siliconcurtainhttps://www.gofundme.com/f/scaling-up-campaign-to-fight-authoritarian-disinformation----------SILICON CURTAIN LIVE EVENTS - FUNDRAISER CAMPAIGN Events in 2025 - Advocacy for a Ukrainian victory with Silicon Curtainhttps://buymeacoffee.com/siliconcurtain/extrasOur events of the first half of the year in Lviv, Kyiv and Odesa were a huge success.

In this episode of The Joe Concha Show, Joe kicks off a wild Cinco de Mayo with a hilarious Trump impersonator pitching the idea to change "ICE" to "NICE". Joe dives deep into the week's political absurdity, calling out the massive wealth exodus as billionaires like Ken Griffin flee high-tax New York for Miami. He also takes aim at Tucker Carlson's bizarre gaslighting in a recent New York Times interview where Carlson denied calling Trump the "Antichrist" despite the audio evidence. Plus, Joe roasts the hosts of The View for their hypocritical complaints about Jeff Bezos and the $100,000-a-ticket Met Gala, breaks down the brutal reality of California's skyrocketing gas taxes, and highlights Marco Rubio's fiery challenge to the UN over Iranian sea mines.  Learn more about your ad choices.

Patrick Bet-David breaks down Tucker Carlson's tense New York Times interview with Lulu Garcia-Navarro, from his “Antichrist” comments about President Donald Trump to how the media is downplaying Carlson's close relationship with Vice President JD Vance.

Join Jim and Greg for the Monday edition of the 3 Martini Lunch as they break down Tucker Carlson's bizarre performance on a New York Times podcast, Democrats already plotting another government shutdown showdown ahead of the midterms, and the University of Oregon agreeing to use the campus alert system if ICE agents are spotted on campus.First, they shake their heads over Carlson flatly denying that he ever speculated on his own podcast about whether President Trump could be the Antichrist, even when confronted with his own words. The segment only gets stranger as Carlson suggests possible treachery within the administration against Vice President JD Vance. Jim and Greg try to figure out what's going on with Tucker.Next, they spotlight the top Democrat on the House Homeland Security Committee openly admitting that Democrats are already considering a government shutdown this October unless their absurd ICE "reforms" are agreed to. How will this impact the midterm elections?Then, they roll their eyes as the University of Oregon gives in to student demands by agreeing to activate the campus alert system if ICE agents are spotted nearby. Finally, they point to a special state senate election in Michigan tomorrow for a seat Gov. Gretchen Whitmer held open for 16 months for political advantage.Please visit our great sponsors:Pocket HoseFor a limited time, get two free gifts—a 360° rotating pocket pivot and a thumb drive nozzle—when you buy the Pocket Hose Ballistic; just text MARTINI to 64000, message and data rates may apply.Fast Growing TreesBetter plants, better growing, and an extra 20% off with code MARTINI at https://FastGrowingTrees.com/Martini for a limited time; terms and conditions may apply.ZocDocStop putting off those doctors' appointments and visit https://Zocdoc.com/3ML to find and instantly book a top rated doctor today.New episodes every weekday. 

On Thursday's Mark Levin Show, Graham Platner is the presumed Democratic nominee for U.S. Senate in Maine. He has received support from Senators Bernie Sanders, Elizabeth Warren, and Chuck Schumer, even though Platner is an antisemite with a past Nazi tattoo. Just goes to show that the Democrats don't care about America - they care about one thing: power. Also, Tucker Carlson has a largely overseas audience, especially in Pakistan, whose viewers drive Carlson's content toward anti-Christian, anti-Jewish, pro-Sharia, and pro-enemy positions that Americans reject. Carlson is accused of texting the Iranian regime before a war, pushing conspiracies blaming Jews and Israel for pressuring Trump into military action, and aligning with figures like Hassan Piker, Nick Fuentes, and Steve Bannon. The Work Reich are mentally ill extremists who are in line with the Democrats, Marxists, and Islamists to trash America, root for its enemies, and destroy the country. Have you noticed the Democrat media are now promoting Carlson, and Democrats are quoting him? He's their useful idiot, who they use to attack the GOP, MAGA and POTUS.  Much like Marjorie Traitor Gangrene and the rest of the cabal.  Later, CAIR is part of the Democrat Party's constituency with ties to Middle East elements, they're a terrorist organization and front group linked to the Muslim Brotherhood, Hamas, and other terrorist entities. How does CAIR continue to operate in the US? There needs to be a full investigation by the DOJ, DHS, and congressional Republicans into its terrorism ties and efforts to undermine the country. Afterward, Rep Hakeem Jeffries and Democrats cannot pack the Supreme Court, impeach the President at will, or impose race-based gerrymandering. The Constitution belongs to the American people, not temporary politicians like Jeffries. Finally, Professor Randy Barnett calls in to discuss his book - Felony Review: Tales of True Crime and Corruption in Chicago.

Earlier this week, What A Day talked about Tucker Carlson's "apology" for supporting President Donald Trump. Carlson's unexpected confession stemmed from a conversation on his podcast, The Tucker Carlson Show. But it sounds like the reason Carlson is disappointed in Trump is simply that Trump didn't do what he wanted. And there's a lot of Trump "regret" right now – from Alex Jones to former Georgia Republican Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene. But which part of Trump do they regret? And what if what they really want is Trump – but worse? To dive deeper into this topic, we spoke with Tim Miller. He's a writer-at-large for The Bulwark and host of The Bulwark Podcast. He recently wrote that Democrats should open the tent to people who once supported Trump, but regret it now.And in headlines, Department of Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin gets really loud on Fox News, Navy Secretary John Phelan is out, and the Iran war is somehow raising the prices of condoms.Show Notes: Check out The Bulwark  Read Tim's piece Call Congress – 202-224-3121 Subscribe to the What A Day Newsletter – https://tinyurl.com/y4y2e9jy What A Day – YouTube – https://www.youtube.com/@whatadaypodcast Follow us on Instagram – https://www.instagram.com/crookedmedia/ For a transcript of this episode, please visit crooked.com/whataday

Tucker Carlson was one of President Trump's biggest defenders. Now, he's one of his loudest critics. Tucker Carlson now says he is “tormented” by his previous support for President Trump.The conservative media personality has criticized the president over the U.S. war with Iran, among other issues.  New Yorker writer Jason Zengerle has followed Tucker Carlson for years. He's the author of a book about Carlson, “Hated by All the Right People."Zengerle says that while from time to time Carlson's support for Trump has wavered, this time is different. For sponsor-free episodes of Consider This, sign up for Consider This+ via Apple Podcasts or at plus.npr.org. Email us at considerthis@npr.org.This episode was produced by Kai McNamee and Karen Zamora.It was edited by Patrick Jarenwattananon and Courtney Dorning.Our executive producer is Sami Yenigun.See pcm.adswizz.com for information about our collection and use of personal data for sponsorship and to manage your podcast sponsorship preferences.NPR Privacy Policy
