A dying woman swears there's a prowler downstairs, but what her husband finds in the dark kitchen is a timid little ghost who can't remember why he's come.Look for this podcast on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, iHeart Radio, Amazon Music, Pandora, TuneIn Radio, and other podcast apps.

Host E.G. Marshall, a script by Ian Martin, and Mandel Kramer in the lead carry this January 23, 1978 tale of a haunting that proves gentler, and far stranger, than it first appears.Raymond Chandler's Los Angeles private detective Philip Marlowe takes the wheel in "The Grim Echo," skidding off a blizzard-blind mountain road and into a snow-filled culvert directly in front of Echo Lodge — the one place on earth where the name Philip Marlowe is pure poison. Six months earlier Marlowe shot and killed Virgil Barucki in a Los Angeles alley, and now the storm has trapped him with Barucki's grieving widow Helen, his sister Donna, his mother, and the handyman Ralph Tolman, while an "accidental" cabin explosion and a stolen .38 revolver make it clear that someone inside Echo Lodge wants him frozen, or dead. Gerald Mohr stars in this February 14, 1950 chiller.Yours Truly, Johnny Dollar sends the freelance insurance investigator with the action-packed expense account into "The Ghost To Ghost Matter," after a frantic Oscar Trimley telephones from the sleepy mill town of Lake City, New Jersey, swearing that Ian McAndrews — the town's founder, dead five years and already paid out at $55,000 on his life policy — has come back to haunt the streets. Every midnight the old clock tower strikes thirteen, bats pour from the belfry, and a wail rises over the lake, so Dollar brings along old flame Nancy Turner to size up a town that insists its founder's ghost simply won't rest. Bob Bailey stars in this May 18, 1958 mystery out of Hartford, Connecticut.The Black Mass adapts M.R. James's classic "The Ash Tree," set at Castringham Hall in Suffolk, England, where the witch trials of 1690 brought the hanging of Mrs. Mothersole — condemned largely on the testimony of Sir Matthew Fell, who swore he watched her climb the great ash tree beside the house at the full of the moon to cut twigs with a peculiarly curved knife. When Sir Matthew is found dead and black in his bed beneath that same tree, the curse the witch promised begins working its way down through the generations of the Fell family and through whatever still lives inside the hollow trunk of the ash. A December 18, 1963 telling of one of the most quietly horrifying ghost stories ever written.The Adventures of Michael Shayne brings private detective Mike Shayne and his secretary Phyllis Knight into "Big Voice Means a Big Body," when 230-pound opera star Madame Jolene Toulot sweeps into the office waving an anonymous letter that threatens her life if she publishes her scandalous tell-all memoirs. With a roster of suspects who'd all rather stay out of the book — old suitor Roderick MacKenzie of the Newport MacKenzies, ex-husband and aspiring congressman Edwin Buck, rival soprano Leonora Baril, and the maestro Savadel — Shayne heads to the Figaro Theatre for a double bill of Pagliacci and Cavalleria Rusticana, where the diva's fifth farewell performance takes a fatal turn. Wally Maher and Cathy Lewis star in this May 7, 1945 case.Beyond Midnight, the eerie South African series, presents "The Yellow Room," in which the avowed atheist Ronald Todd accepts a wager from the elderly Mrs. Watts: one thousand pounds to spend a single night, entirely alone, in the haunted north wing of Chancellors — the very room where the ghost-hunting sixth Duke of Wallingford lost his sanity and a captain of the Hussars leapt to his death. Over Father Doyle's warnings, Todd is locked in with seven candles for company and a copy of Evelyn Waugh's Brideshead Revisited, and as the clock passes midnight the candles begin going out one by one. Michael McCabe produced this June 6, 1969 broadcast.MindWebs turns to science fiction with Clifford Simak's "Desertion," set in Dome Number Three of the Jovian Survey Commission on the surface of Jupiter, where the planet's crushing fifteen thousand pounds per square inch of pressure and its ammonia rains make unprotected human life impossible. To conquer it, Kent Fowler has been converting his men into "lopers," the planet's native life form — but four men have already loped out into the howling gale two by two and never come back, and now young Harold Allen is next through Miss Stanley's converter. When Fowler at last sends out his own aging dog, Towser, the truth about why no one returns finally begins to surface. A February 18, 1982 reading hosted by Michael Hansen.Mystery in the Air stars Peter Lorre in Ben Hecht's "The Marvelous Barastro," opening as the magician and hypnotist Barastro walks into the office of criminal lawyer Amos G. Hall and calmly announces that he intends to commit a murder before the night is out. His target is Rico Sansoni, a rival hypnotist who once stole away the affections of Barastro's blind wife Anna by studying and mastering the magician's own voice — close enough to deceive even her in the dark. As Barastro recounts hunting his enemy from country to country and city to city, the line between the two illusionists grows harder and harder to draw. An August 7, 1947 broadcast sponsored by Camel cigarettes.Molle Mystery Theater closes the night on a lighter note with the comedy "Follow That Cab," starring two New York City cabbies, Mo and Julius, who have read so many issues of Absolutely Authentic True Crime Fiction — and idolized its hero, detective Daniel Daremore — that they're convinced they can crack any case. When a fare leaps from the cab without paying and a song publisher named Larkin turns up shot dead in his apartment, the pair wipe away the fingerprints to make the murder "more baffling," let their prime suspect walk, and bumble their way toward a stolen song called "Joan," a desperate songwriter named Boynton, and a mysterious redhead. Written by Sid and Larry Sloan, this April 19, 1946 farce sends up the whole hardboiled detective genre with host Jeffrey Barnes presiding.

Surprisingly, the forces that drove the most dramatic changes in England, were born, cultivated and found expression within London. The Story reaches a moment of grand political crisis- Chancellors fall, parliament flexes its muscles, the capricious King makes up arguments as he goes along, and London carries on, providing intellectual and emotional fuel for it all. And while this happens, Thomas More, the judge from Milk Street, ascends the highest position in all the land, while still presiding over cases of London criminality, and being the face of the kings sudden desire to start killing heretics… welcome to the open salvos of the Reformation.Cover includes a detail of the portrait of Sir Thomas More, by Hans Holbein the Younger (1527),

Remember Olaf Scholz? Just about? Remember when he sunk to the lowest opinion poll rating in German political history? Well the good news for anonymous hopeless former Chancellors is that the next beige technocrat in charge of Germany has just beaten his record. Plunging to 89% dissatisfied – with only 11% satisfied. Even with Macron as the most unpopular President ever, Starmer the least popular Prime Minister, Merz is more unpopular still. Our lead question this week is very simple: what the flaming fuck is going on in Germany? Meanwhile, more news just in on Europe's cordless bungee ride: UK bond yields have spiked again. To 5.3% - the highest rate since 1998. They can't go any higher – right? In the four years since the Truss contagion blew up the markets by hitting 5% and toppled the government, it's a good thing the UK Treasury used that period to stop running massive deficits… right? Finally, the global oil market is beginning to resemble Argentina under Kirschner. You've got your official prices; and then your real prices. As reality continues to diverge from the markets, we're asking: who is this mysterious Whale of Hormuz who keeps on fiddling with the international price mechanism?

In the new book Disneyland and the Rise of Automation: How Technology Created the Happiest Place on Earth, scholar Dr. Roland Betancourt deconstructs how Walt's original family park served as a foundational space for automation during a time when humans increasingly relied on technology for many of their needs and desires. This well-researched title from Princeton University Press explores how many of Disneyland's foundational attractions have relied on sophisticated technologies to make modern mechanical magic. Dr. Betancourt is Chancellors' Professor in the Department of Art History at the University of California, Irvine. On this episode we discuss the book's development and content.  Learn more about the book on the Princeton University Press website.

It is the Post Manderon Period of the Republic, an era of upheaval and chaos. The Great Hyperspace War, and Gank Massacres have come and gone, and new leaders inherit a Republic that is once again, on the brink of yet more conflict. The Republic is now under the leadership of Supreme Chancellor Sidrona, and a new Sith menace has emerged to threaten the galaxy once again in the form of the duo, Exar Kun and Ulic Qel Droma.

The Republic. Jewel of the Galaxy. Monument of civilization. Founded on ideals that would last millenia, the Republic weathered crisis and chaos before ultimately succumbing, not to threats from without, but threats from within. And, to lead such a monumental organization, the Office of the Supreme Chancellor held sway over a million worlds and a trillion souls. Chosen by the senate, wielding power greater than any previous government, leader of the free galaxy, protector of democracy and bureaucrat in chief.

Two former UK Chancellors, Jeremy Hunt and Kwasi Kwarteng, provide a brutal, emergency budget analysis, revealing how Labour's policies are crippling the UK economy. Discover the shocking truth about £70 billion in new taxes, how "fiscal drag" and frozen thresholds are making your money erode faster than ever, and why this is the biggest issue facing the country right now. BEST MOMENTS "I think that I felt a bit betrayed... growth was completely sacrificed to the internal Labour Party debate about welfare spend." "The problem with the situation we're in... is that we've got welfare states that were created... 80 years ago... and we have a lot less money, a lot less growth." "The dollar in 2020... is worth 25% more than it is today. So that's in straight-line terms, 5% depreciation every year."

Two former UK Chancellors, Jeremy Hunt and Kwasi Kwarteng, deliver a brutal, unfiltered emergency analysis on Labour's first two budgets.  They expose the truth behind the £70 billion tax hike, the controversial welfare policies, and why freezing housing taxes will "gum up" the top end of the market.

BEST MOMENTS "I was really giving Rachel Reeves and Keir Starmer the benefit of the doubt... I thought the basic philosophy was going to be pro-business. And I think yesterday, very sadly, growth was completely sacrificed." "The one thing that most worried me... was the extra bands of council tax on more expensive homes... it is going to gum up the top end of the property market." "They've got another three years of budgets. And do I think they're suddenly going to balance the books and not raise taxes?

Ed and George try to work it out, but are not quite sure themselves - please write in! They also delve into the minimum wage rise from the budget, and signal pressing issues Keir Starmer and Rachel Reeves must tackle down the line.Finally, the pair share their dream jobs - other than Prime Minister, of course - with Ed's being a suitably political answer and George's being typically wide-ranging from his previous roles.We love hearing from you, so please don't forget to send all your EMQs to questions@politicalcurrency and make sure to include a voice note of your question.

Rachel Reeves is accused of misleading the public, lying and “possible market abuse” by the opposition. They've called for her resignation. The Prime Minister, however, is standing by her and told us today the budget was a thing of “personal pride” for him. Meanwhile the OBR - the body that accidentally leaked the Chancellors budget an hour before it was given - have admitted this evening it was the worst failure in its fifteen year history. The run up to the entire budget was a fiasco. But was it a lie? And which bits do the public really understand or care about? Later, why is Trump about to declare war on Venezuela? Is it about regime change, or oil, or Epstein or all three?The News Agents is brought to you by HSBC UK - https://www.hsbc.co.uk/EXCLUSIVE NordVPN Deal -> https://nordvpn.com/thenewsagents Try it risk-free now with a 30-day money-back guarantee

With just days to go to Rachel Reeves' Budget, George Parker speaks to her Conservative predecessor at the Treasury, Sir Jeremy Hunt MP. They discuss what it's like for Chancellors in the run-up to a fiscal event and the intense speculation around this Budget.Following the publication of the Covid Inquiry's second report George interviews former minister, Lord Frost, who resigned from the then Conservative government over pandemic policy, and Prof Stephen Reicher, who advised both the UK and Scottish governments during the pandemic.To discuss the Home Secretary's overhaul of the asylum system, and the divisions within her party, George speaks to Labour MPs Olivia Blake and Gareth Snell.And, as the London Aquarium responds to concerns raised by a number of MPs over the welfare of its penguins, George speaks to one of those MPs, Danny Chambers, and New Statesman journalist, Rachel Cunliffe.

As Rachel Reeves prepares for the most talked about budget in decades we discuss a galaxy of previous chancellors often facing epic challenges. Standby for portraits of Healey, Howe, Lamont, Brown and Osborne, and of course the team's latest reflections of Reeves as she prepares for this Wednesday. Hosted on Acast.

Psychic news article writer and paranormal author and ghost researcher John West guests on the Paranormal Peep Show speaking to Neil Ward. John explains about his research into various ghostly anomalies, mostly of the Roman ghost variety. He explains about the famous Roman Ghosts of York sighted by apprentice plumber Harry Martindale in 1953 at the Chancellors House which was built over a Roman road. It appears that Harry saw the Romans of the past marching down over this Roman Road, but he saw them coming through the wall of a  cellar he was working on. In 1957, possibly the same Romans were seen again in the cellar but this time by a house keeper of the Chancellors house who was checking up on the building before retiring to bed. This time the Romans were sleeping, slumped accross their horses that marched them back to camp. Was it a stone tape recording, or a some kind of time slip? John shares various accounts of possible time slips with Roman horses sighted on carriages but being frightened of people in the present time who are witnessing them. We also hear of the Roman centurian seen ten feet in the air off Hadrien's Wall, presumably at the level the wall originally stood at before it began to crumble. We also discuss ghosts from Jack the Ripper time and ask if Ghosts could have been created in more modern times, such as with the killings done by Fred and Rose West of Cromwell Avenue in Gloucester in the 70s, 80s and 90s of many young women. All this and more in this October edition of The Paranormal Peep Show, part of the Paranormal UK Radio Network.John West web site can be viewed at http://www.johnwestmedia.com/www.paukradio.comTrue Tales of the Paranormal by Neil Ward is available at Amazon.co.uk and all of John's books he mentions are also available on Amazon too. http://www.johnwestmedia.com/john-wes...Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/paranormal-uk-radio-network--4541473/support.

As the Budget finally looms into view, this week the panel takes a look at one of the potential tax reforms suggested to Chancellors year-in, year-out, that could transform the Treasury coffers, but is one that this government, and every previous one stretching back decades, has refused to touch - council tax.While economists and tax experts all agree it is an unfair, outdated and regressive levy, nobody has the political will to change it, so to look at why that is, and what it could be replaced with, host Alain Tolhurst is joined by Labour MP Jonathan Brash, chair of the APPG on council tax, along with Dan Neidle, founder of Tax Policy Associates, and two members of the Treasury select committee - Conservative former minister Harriet Baldwin, and Labour's Catherine West.To sign up for our newsletters click herePresented by Alain Tolhurst, produced by Nick Hilton and edited by Ewan Cameron for Podot

It's topical time again. The last few weeks have seen a potential bubble emerging in the markets as tech valuations soar. This time round central bankers have jumped in to provide warnings ahead of this potential crash. In the UK, the Treasury has continued to fly taxation kites to see how the public and markets react - something that we discussed in episode 90. It has been impossible over the last few weeks not to see pictures of a glum looking Prince Andrew (or should he plain old Andrew) across our TV screens.  As usual our task, is to take a passionate, grumpy view of how things should have been handled from a PR and flaks perspective.  So, topics to discuss on this podcast include: - When and how should those with the big roles (CEOs, Governors, Chancellors and so on) give warnings about market instability? Does saying it create more instability? - If AI is going to take over the world of PR and Comms, are there some things we'd really like it to do? - As the Royals garner all the media headlines (often for the wrong reasons), how would we advise the Palace? - And why is Birmingham Council being so reluctant to rename its airport after one of the City's heroes? US cities do it all the time.  This episode is hosted by Matt Young and Andrew Brown. Matt Young has 25 years of experience across media relations, public affairs, regulatory development, employee engagement, brand development, competition and CSR. Group corporate affairs director at Lloyds Banking Group, part of the senior team which rescued the bank and rebuilt its reputation following the financial crisis.

Why won't Labour make rejoining the EU its new "silver bullet" against Nigel Farage? A listener challenges Ed Balls and George Osborne on tackling the "political third rail" of Brexit. Ed argues the EU wouldn't even want the UK back on its old terms - likely forcing the Euro and Schengen - while George predicts Britain will inevitably "creep back" towards the Single Market.Then, a direct question from the Gates Foundation confronts the former Chancellors on the 40% cut to foreign aid. George, the Chancellor who delivered the 0.7% target, blasts the "remarkably silent" and "compliant" aid community, delivering a stark warning to "get louder" or face even more cuts.Plus, with Tess Daly and Claudia Winkleman stepping down, could Ed and George be the new hosts of Strictly Come Dancing? The pair reveal how unscripted the podcast really is, George shares his favorite TikTok restaurant reviewer, and Ed reacts to his "hot phase" going viral on social media…Thanks for listening.

For the 100th episode of The Tax Factor, Robert Salter and Malli Kini take a look back over two rather turbulent years. 2 Prime Ministers, 2 Chancellors of the Exchequer: 2, 3 Major fiscal statements and an election. Robert and Malli then explore how HMRC is using Artificial Intelligence to identify discrepancies and catch out taxpayers, what possible changes could be coming to the taxation of partnerships and LLPs, and why the Revenue’s approach to compliance might make it the “Christmas Grinch” of the season.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This week I was listening to Merryn Talks Money. My old boss and great friend, Merryn Somerset Webb, was discussing portfolio allocation - which assets should make up the 40 in a 60:40 bond-to-equity portfolio - with Nataliia Lipikhana, executive director at JP Morgan . Merryn asked if bitcoin should be one of the assets to include, alongside gold. Lipikhana, who, until then, had spoken widely, fluently and knowledgeably about a range of subjects, suddenly stonewalled.“We don't cover it so we can't talk about it,” she said.Awkward pause.Merryn laughs. “At all?”“No,” says Lipikhana.Another pause.“Ok,” says Merryn. “Totally understand,” and she changed the subject.This is a symptom of something much bigger that has been at play throughout the institutional world, and not just in the UK, since the emergence of bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies.They've been shadowbanned.We know of course about the UK's Financial Conduct Authority, how its regulations went against the pronouncements of various Chancellors, and how it effectively excluded UK citizens from the sector. Something similar has long been happening at the institutional level. “Most private banks will not accept bitcoin ETF orders for their clients, despite being able to deal with elective professionals,” a fund manager friend (who prefers to stay anonymous) tells me. “This applies in countries where there is no ban because the bank will have links to London. Even in the US, the traditional institutions will ban bitcoin internally.”Here's a list of the biggest holders of the iShares gold ETF. Many of banking's biggest names are there.Now here's a list of the iShares bitcoin ETF's biggest holders. There is nothing like the same institutional weight.(Goldman and Morgan Stanley will be market making on behalf of hedge fund clients)“Lipikhana probably feels she might get the sack if she comments on bitcoin,” my fund manager friend continues. “So she doesn't”.You know my saying, “A bubble is a bull market in which you don't have a position”. For years now, banks have been talking their clients away from this sector, often using that argument that it's a bubble. This pre-dates the ETFs by ten years or more.Wall Street and the City don't like bitcoin because they didn't get there first. Smelly private investors did. They missed out on this epic opportunity and, rather than embrace it, they ignore it.They don't control it. They can't manipulate it. Don't talk about bitcoin. Perhaps it'll go away.Well, it hasn't and it won't. It is here to stay.Now with the emergence of the both the ETFs and the bitcoin treasury companies, bitcoin is edging its way further and further into the financial mainstream.“You get bitcoin at the price you deserve,” runs the saying. Ain't it so.What this means for investors is that there is a huge wall of institutional money that is still to come into the sector. It will eventually. Bitcoin is the most technologically advanced money in history. Now that real estate is gone as a vehicle to protect against currency debasement (too highly legislated and taxed), the need for an effective savings vehicle is only greater. Bitcoin is the best savings vehicle there is.I love gold. You know I do. I think it has an enormous strategic role to play in the coming years, and should play a part in every portfolio. But bitcoin appreciates by more. It beats stocks. It beats bonds. It beats commodities.But JP Morgan would rather not comment.If you enjoyed this post, please like or share - it helps :)PS Don't forget my brilliant book about bitcoin, if you want to learn more about the space.

Why is the OBR warning that the UK is heading towards fiscal catastrophe? Will Rachel Reeves put up all the wrong taxes in the autumn budget? Are the fiscal rules compatible with growing the economy? Steph and Robert drill into the UK's public finances crisis with Paul Johnson, who this week is standing down as the head of the Institute for Fiscal Studies and has been judge and jury of the nation's Chancellors since 2011.

SUCCESSIONS! The Hollywood Reporter recently released an article detailing the "promotions" that are allegedly being considered in major Hollywood studios, among them Disney.While many in the Star Wars have been talking ad nauseam about "Kathleen Kennedy being fired", the truth remains that someday she will step down. Now, it is rumored that it is not ONE person who might succeed her but TWO! Just like DC Studios has two CEOs, Lucasfilm, might have two co-Presidents (or co-Chancellors of you're fans of Phase 2 of The High Republic). Today we discuss these rumors of DAVE FILONI and CARRIE BECK being the potential heirs to the Empire and the potential successors of the Lucasfilm dynasty!• • •Triad of the Force is a channel which was featured on the Podcast Stage at Star Wars Celebration 2022 and 2023, featuring Nani and Gus, lifelong Puerto Rican friends who after years of discussing the media they love, came together and created their show.

This week on The Tax Factor, Heather Self and Roger Holman ask whether Angela Rayner should stop auditioning for Chancellor after her tax policy ideas were leaked and heavily critiqued. Meanwhile, HMRC is getting heat from all directions: the National Audit Office questions its handling of wealthy taxpayers, and the Public Accounts Committee says the tax system is spiralling into complexity, public trust is fading, and confidence in HMRC’s IT overhaul is shaky at best. Scottish Power had a fine reduced to £1 but paid £28 million in compensation. The big question: can that be claimed as tax deductible? HMRC and Scottish Power don’t see eye to eye.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

I began today's show with some notes and antidots. First of all my comments on the on the west coast teams traveling so much or are they? The anger black man came out in my response to all the whining that's going on from the people out west and those not in the know. Next, the Iamaleva saga continue with a couple of new twist. Nico's little brother, Madden is the star of the latest mess the family had cooked up. The NFL draft is something that I have on in background on day one and if there is an interesting the next two days I may track it. This years story of the draft was a car wreck. I describe in one word long before Stephen A .Smith did so. Listen to find out the one word answer give for the draft.  Lastly, I finish the show why the House Case settlement is in jeopardy, who's to blame and why are the bad faith actors behaving the way the they are responding to Judge Wilkins( yes, that's her in the photo) strong suggestion and now her threat to the leaders of college athletics. I'm not talking about the NCAA.(the small office in Indy) It's clearly the eggheads in charge of college sports. The school Presidents, Boards of Regents, Chancellors, Conference Commissioners and Athletic Directors. At the end of the show I explain why they are acting in bad faith with the terms of the settlement and what are they trying to gain by digging their heels in and openly disobeying the judge's suggestions and now warning on the topic of roster limits. It's pretty simple why they are doing it.

A whole host of Treasury buffs have sent in their questions this week in wake of the Spring Statement, for Ed Balls and George Osborne to answer. Former Chancellor Jeremy Hunt asks whether in the light of Labour's announcing civil service reductions and welfare reform, the government is “stealing our clothes”? Lord Macpherson, Permanent Secretary to no less than three Chancellors, praises Rachel Reeves' “courageous” claim of non-negotiability on her fiscal rules (which George translates as a euphemism for ‘bonkers').Shadow Chancellor Mel Stride is predictably critical of the Chancellor's choices, but how much is Rachel Reeves to blame for the situation she finds herself in? And Ruth Curtice, Chief Executive of the Resolution Foundation and another former Treasury civil servant, sparks a conversation about how living standards will ultimately dictate Labour's electoral chances. Plus, Ed and George also clash over Keir Starmer's use of “coalition of the willing” - is this a conscious attempt to provoke American sentiment, or simply a widely used buzzphrase? You could have been listening to this episode of EMQs early and ad-free with a Political Currency Gold subscription!

Like most universities, Columbia receives a great deal of federal funding. The Federal Task Force to Combat Anti-Semitism, created by the Trump Administration, announced that it will visit 10 university campuses that have  seen a shocking rise in antisemitism since October 7, 2023.According to Education Secretary Linda McMahon, “Americans have watched in horror for more than a year now, as Jewish students have been assaulted and harassed on elite university campuses. Unlawful encampments and demonstrations have completely paralyzed day-to-day campus operations, depriving Jewish students of learning opportunities to which they are entitled. Institutions that receive federal funds have a responsibility to protect all students from discrimination. Columbia's apparent failure to uphold their end of this basic agreement raises very serious questions about the institution's fitness to continue doing business with the United States government.”According to Maya Sulkin in the Free Press, “even though Columbia formed a Task Force on Antisemitism weeks after Hamas's invasion of Israel on October 7, 2023, and issued two reports that revealed shocking instances of Jew hate on campus—not just among students but professors and administrators—the college has done little to root out the problem.”As a result, on Friday the Trump Administration announced the cancellation of $400 million in federal grants to  and contracts with Columbia. Following these developments, one could be left with the impression that higher education is doomed. Yetwe were struck by the reaction from the Call Me Back community to a conversation we had with the Chancellor of Vanderbilt University, Daniel Diermeier, last November, in an episode titled “How Vanderbilt University is getting it right.” It reminded us that some universities have impressively navigated the past 16 months.Vanderbilt is one of them. Another is Washington University. The Chancellors of both universities (Washington University Chancellor Andrew Martin and Vanderbilt's Diermeier) recently issued a set of principles that every university should be able to adopt. They summarized these principles in a piece in the Chronicle of Higher Education, titled: “Universities Must Reject Creeping Politicization.” You can read it here: There have been other universities, like the University of Michigan, which in the months after October 7, 2023 experienced massive disruptions. Yet according to conversations we have had with current Jewish students, the university administration has been doing much better than others. University of Michigan President Santa Ono has taken promising steps on a number of fronts, including the University's relationship with Israel, that could also serve as  a model.So, against the backdrop of chaos at Columbia and Barnard this past week, we sat down with WashU's Andrew Martin and Michigan's Santa Ono at the ADL's “Never is Now” Summit in New York City, for a candid conversation about what has happened at each of their universities, lessons learned, and charting a path forward. Additional items:ADL's Campus Antisemitism Report Card: https://www.adl.org/campus-antisemitism-report-card-Free Press reporting on Columbia University:https://www.thefp.com/p/exclusive-trump-administration-cancels-https://www.thefp.com/p/trump-columbia-antisemitism-federal-fundingCREDITS:ILAN BENATAR - Producer & EditorMARTIN HUERGO - EditorYARDENA SCHWARTZ - Executive Editor of Ark MediaGABE SILVERSTEIN - Research Intern YUVAL SEMO - Music Composer

With Keir Starmer recently forced to promise his Chancellor, Rachel Reeves, would stay on until the next election, Westminster Insider Host Sascha O'Sullivan talks to former Chancellors and advisors who have worked in No 10 and No 11 Downing Street over the last 30 years to find out how to survive one of the toughest gigs in politics. She talks to former Chancellor Norman Lamont about the aftermath of the Black Wednesday financial crisis in 1992 and what lead to John Major sacking him less than a year later. Former advisor to Blair and Brown Theo Bertram tells Sascha the Chancellor-turned-PM Gordon Brown struggled to relinquish control over the Treasury to his new neighbour in No11, Alistair Darling. Sam White, who worked for Darling during his time as Chancellor, explains how an ideological wedge pulled the two apart before and after the 2008 financial crash. George Osborne, former Chancellor and now host of the Political Currency podcast, explains his unusual closeness with David Cameron through their shared belief in the merits of austerity. But he tells Sascha how their closeness may have risked a form of 'groupthink' during their time in office. Osborne also sets out why he thinks Rachel Reeves current economic plans have more in common with his economic agenda in the 2010s that people might realise. Learn more about your ad choices.

This week we have a rather nice time discussing faking it till you make it - or not - gated content and why people are so angry all the time. We also wander off and discuss the Chancellors' CV, more fake it till you make it, and whatever else takes our fancy.

In one fell swoop the Bank of England cut interest rates today and worse, their forecast for growth. They now believe the economy will grow at HALF the rate originally predicted. And the bank is pointing the finger at the Chancellors tax rises in the last budget as the problem. Is Rachel Reeves in trouble? Is the country? And will the Prime Minister stick by her as Chancellor? Later, Kemi Badenoch has a new test for immigrants coming to Britain. Can they prove that they will give more back to the country financially than they take out ?Tickets to The News Agents Live On Stage with HSBC UK are now on sale!

A prolific scholar, he has authored over 300 publications and delivered more than 500 invited presentations. Additionally, Dr. Matsumoto has served as President of the Society of Interventional Radiology and the Virginia Radiological Society. Dr. Matsumoto's inspiring journey begins with a personal history rooted in resilience—his parents' families spent time in internment camps during World War II, a fact he only learned about much later in life. Born in Salt Lake City, he moved with his family to Stockton, California, at the age of 5 ½, where dreamed of becoming a professional baseball player. A self-proclaimed rabble-rouser, he credits his high school years for teaching him the value of building relationships with diverse groups of people (hint, this involves ice cream!), a skill that he has been carried forward into his academic and professional career After attending medical school at the Bowman Gray School of Medicine at Wake Forest University, he completed an Internal Medicine residency at the University of Massachusetts before transitioning to radiology, completing his Diagnostic Radiology residency at the University of North Carolina. Following Fellowship training in Vascular and Interventional Radiology at Georgetown University, Dr. Matsumoto and his wife, also a radiologist, spent two years in private practice in Florida before settling in Charlottesville at the University of Virginia in 1991 – and he has never looked back. Throughout his leadership journey at UVA, Dr. Matsumoto has emphasized the importance of emotional intelligence, change management, and servant leadership and reflects that his most rewarding moments as a leader come from bringing people together to accomplish shared goals. His story is a testament to the power of perseverance, collaboration, and leadership grounded in humility and a desire for clinical excellence. Don't miss this special episode of Taking the Lead.

Universities are public service organisations, educating and researching for the broader societal good. Yet in many countries, the UK and Australia among them, public funding for these institutions has been stripped back forcing them to take a more strategic, commercial approach to generate the income needed to support their work. How can institutions balance social responsibilities against the need to maintain sound finances? How can they improve the quality of teaching and research while driving efficiency and streamlining spending? And how can they remain competitive in an ever-changing global higher education sector? We spoke to two vice-chancellors about how they navigate these challenges. Alex Zelinsky has been vice-chancellor of the University of Newcastle, Australia, since 2018. He a computer scientist and systems engineer by background who has previously worked in government as Australia's Chief Defence Scientist. Anton Muscatelli has been principal and vice-chancellor of the University of Glasgow since 2009. He will be retiring next year after leading the university through a period of impressive growth. An economist, Anton was chair of the First Minister's Standing Council on Europe and a member of the Scottish Government's Council of Economic Advisers until 2021. He has been a special adviser to the House of Commons Treasury Select Committee on fiscal and monetary policy, and has advised the European Commission and the World Bank.

Senator Amidala is apparently the only person responsible for aiding refugees, and apparently all money comes from the Banking Clan on Scipio. Amidala and her aide Teckla Minnau travel there and meet old friend, Rush Clovis. Clovis proves his good intentions by sneaking into Padme's bedroom, this bank has security almost as bad as Fortress Inquisitorius ! He explains that the Banking Clan is about to change its name to Bear-Stearns, as the vaults are almost empty.Chancellor Palpatine asks Padme to help Clovis and find out more about the missing money. Padme and Clovis head to his private apartments to make their Ocean's 2 heist plan to steals banking files. Teckla follows through on the play, but is assassinated by Bounty Hunter Embo: RSVP Teckla Minnau!Padme and Clovis review the data, but before they can act Padme is arrested for espionage. The Jedi send Anakin to Scipio to help; once he arrives and learns Clovis is involved, he becomes a raging pit of jealousy. Our heroes manage to escape, but as they do, Embo contacts Darth Sidious, who declares that going forward Sidious will deal with them personally. The space caricatures of ‘international' bankers are meeting in their steampunk lair - oof. Yoda meets Padme, Anakin and Rush Clovis and escorts them to the Chancellors office. Anakin gets possessive and picks a fight with Padme, which Clovis somehow wins simply by not being a raging dick. Obi Wan notices that Anakin is pretty angry, and they almost have a conversation about Anankin and Padme. Anakin outright lies about his relationship with Padme.Padme and Clovis engage in some forensic accounting. Clovis gets grabby. Anakin, who has presumably been using the peeping tom force power, barges in and proceeds to Force Choke Clovis. Clovis gets Anakin to put down his lightsaber and put up his dukes. Security is called and Clovis may be many things, but he aint no snitch. Padme tells Anakin to get lost. Anakin is heartbroken.The Separatists and the Republic vote to allow Clovis to become head of the banking clans (which, what the hell?).  We open on Scipio as the transfer of power to Rush Clovis is about to begin. Dooku Spacetimes(™) with Clovis with demands and threats to raise the interest rates on the Republic, otherwise the Separatists will default on their payments.Padme relays this information to the Senate. Yoda and Chancellor Palpatine both want to investigate Clovis, but in their own ways.  Back on Scipio, the separatists attack Padme's clone escort and Dooku arrives to take control. Padme is captured. Palpatine decides they must declare war on Scipio. Dooku FORCE…S Padme to shoot the separatist senator.  Yoda sends an obviously conflicted Anakin to Scipio. Sidious and Dooku reveal that the banks will be placed under the control of the Supreme Chancelor… their plan all along. Padme warns Clovis that he has lost control. A Vulture droid is shot down and crashes into Clovis' office, causing Padme and Clovis to tumble over the edge. Anakin cannot save them both. Clovis apologizes for all he's done, and sacrifices himself.Palpatine gets control of the banks, but promises to relinquish power once the war is over… A promise I'm sure he'll keep.https://twitter.com/ClosingCrawlhttps://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/closing-crawl/id1530133296https://www.closingcrawl.com/Merch at: https://bit.ly/spacetimetm

In this episode of the "History of IR" series on BackTable, Dr. Alan Matsumoto, Chair of the Department of Radiology at the University of Virginia and a fellow of the Society of Interventional Radiology, joins our host Aparna Baheti. Dr. Matsumoto also serves as the Vice Chair of the American College of Radiology's Board of Chancellors. This installment provides a unique perspective on the life and career of Dr. Matsumoto and sheds light on the evolution of interventional radiology. --- CHECK OUT OUR SPONSORS Reflow Medical https://www.reflowmedical.com/ Medtronic Embolization https://www.medtronic.com/embolization --- SHOW NOTES Dr. Matsumoto's journey into IR commenced during his residency in the Department of Radiology at the University of North Carolina. The culture of independence within the department allowed him to gain extensive hands-on experience. Subsequently, after completing a four-year radiology residency followed by a one-year fellowship, Dr. Matsumoto ventured into private practice on the picturesque West Coast of Florida. However, his return to academic medicine was inspired by a profound appreciation for collaborative patient care discussions with referring physicians, marking a departure from the previous norm of merely appeasing them to maintain referral patterns. This transition led him to the University of Virginia, where he partnered with Dr. Tegtmeyer. Dr. Tegtmeyer's meticulous approach in running the IR suite, akin to a surgical suite, cultivated an appreciation for organizational precision and independence. During this conversation, Dr. Matsumoto fondly reminisces about Dr. Tegtmeyer, who emphasized the art of presenting oneself as an IR doctor to patients. He recognizes Dr. Tegtmeyer's passion for renal angioplasty, acknowledging him and Dr. Thoman Sos as pioneers in the field. Dr. Matsumoto also provides valuable insights into the technological landscape of IR in the past, underscoring the absence of contemporary tools like C-arms and pre-shaped catheters. Consequently, IR practitioners had to adapt and innovate, often crafting and modifying instruments, including innovative solutions like using styrofoam for embolizations or shaping catheters with bunsen burners. Furthermore, Dr. Matsumoto delves into the challenges faced by early practitioners, highlighting the need for caution to avoid detractors exploiting mistakes to diminish the value of IR procedures and potentially restrict the scope of IR practice. Balancing the role of a friendly collaborator with technicians and nurses while assuming leadership in the IR suite is a pivotal aspect of his journey. Dr. Matsumoto then elaborates on his pivotal involvement in aortic work in 1998, as he helped establish a core lab and collaborated with device companies along with CT and vascular surgeons. This work allowed him to be a part of the approval process of Medtronic's AneuRx endograft in 1999, where he testified at the FDA hearing for this groundbreaking product designed to treat AAA's. The transition to leadership within the department of IR at the University of Virginia marked another significant chapter in Dr. Matsumoto's career. Despite assuming this role unexpectedly after the passing of Dr. Tegtmire, he embraced the challenge. His vision for the department revolves around a heightened focus on clinical operations and streamlining patient responsibilities to enhance efficiency while upholding a culture of excellence. Dr. Matsumoto concludes this episode with valuable insights into strengthening an IR department by effectively promoting and communicating the value of services to the broader medical community.
