Hoy regresamos a uno de los temas más pedidos, más comentados y más temidos por ustedes: esas historias que provienen directamente de quienes han estado en el frente, en la oscuridad del monte, en los operativos nocturnos… donde no siempre el enemigo es humano. En este episodio escucharemos testimonios de soldados que, además de cargar con el peso de su deber, han tenido que enfrentarse a presencias que no aparecen en los informes, que no se explican en los manuales, y que jamás se mencionan en los ascensos ni en las ceremonias. Algunos de ellos vieron figuras observándolos desde lo más alto de los árboles; otros escucharon pasos entre los matorrales cuando todo el pelotón estaba dormido. También hay quienes aseguran haber sido llamados por voces familiares justo antes de perder a un compañero. Y, en más de un caso, lo que parecía una simple misión rutinaria terminó convirtiéndose en una noche marcada para siempre. Esta noche, comunidad, nos adentramos no solo en el trabajo silencioso y duro de quienes sirven… sino en lo que ellos nunca pueden contar en voz alta, porque nadie les creería. Porque a veces, incluso en una zona controlada, rodeados de su propio equipo, el verdadero terror llega del otro lado de la oscuridad, sin rostro, sin identidad… y sin miedo a enfrentarlos. Apaguen la luz, acomódense, y prepárense para escuchar lo que los militares solo confiesan cuando vuelven a casa y no pueden dormir. Bienvenidos a Relatos de la Noche. —

The historiographical studies developed by Ruth Rodríguez Sotomayor, agraduate librarian of the University of Guayaquil, researcher at the HistoricalArchive of Guayas, and lecturer, are extraordinary. Her studies go beyond the limits of traditional historiography, or rather, they transcend the boundaries of the orthodox history, as Ruth Rodríguez Sotomayor rescues and exposes, through the study of symbols, the arts, sciences, and philology, of an almost unknown past of the Americas.And to speak of the Americas is to speak of the continent of civilizing godswhose traces are today silent vestiges of the original Golden Age.Certainly, Rodríguez Sotomayor's work opposes the aforementionedorthodox or “official” version, and thus, consequently, becomes a revolutionaryproposal.One of the most important fields of her studies is the prefiguration of theorigin of mankind in South America and the spread of its civilization to othercontinents. They are therefore connected to the essential works of distinguishedresearchers such as the multidisciplinary Francisco P. Moreno, the philologist andethnologist Emeterio Villamil de Rada, and the archaeologist Roberto Rengifo,since Rodríguez Sotomayor recognizes in America –or Pre-America as she aptlysheds light on it, that is, the America before the known America– as the nucleusfrom which the civilizing group emerged, migrating, projecting, and settling indifferent centers of the globe, expanding its civilization.Rafael Videla Eissmann (Chile, 1979) is a historian graduated from UniversidadCatólica de Chile.

As this podcast goes to air, we have a lot of cosmic forces at play. In our last episode, we talked about all the planets moving around, going from retrograde to direct—lots of cosmic activity. We just went through that full moon, a super full moon so close to the earth, illuminating so much light and insight into our future. We're at this point where we let all that old stuff go and open up to new activity, new ideas. We're moving into a new season. What's really lighting up the skies right now is the 3I/ATLAS—an interstellar comet discovered on July 1, 2025, by the Asteroid Terrestrial-impact Last Alert System (ATLAS) telescope in Chile. It represents the third confirmed object from outside our Solar System ever observed passing through our cosmic neighborhood, following ʻOumuamua (2017) and 2I/Borisov (2019). In this next week, it will be the closest it gets to planet Earth. This comet has a huge tail and is bringing in light codes. The thing that makes this so unusual is it's not from our galaxy. What is it bringing? There were lots of rumors that it was bringing in aliens, yet none of that's confirmed. I do believe it's bringing in light codes to activate our light bodies—just like we've been talking about in the last several episodes, opening up more structures for the DNA, opening up the light bodies to expand the consciousness of who we truly are. As we're moving closer and closer to the very end of fall, we'll be talking more and more about the solstice falling in that energy of Capricorn and how it is illuminating even more shifts and changes for humanity. This isn't really something they're going to be talking about in the news, but this is what's going on, and as you open up your body and expand your consciousness, you are being a part of lifting the vibration, holding the light, creating the shift that is coming forward. My Lemurian guides are right here with me right now, just confirming: Yes, yes! This is so important for all of us to awaken to. This is exactly the subject we're going to be talking about today. Episode Summary In this powerful episode, host Terri Ann Heiman sits down with scholar and spiritual detective Dr. Joanna Kujawa to discuss her groundbreaking book, Alien Goddess: UFOs, AI, and the Goddesses of Ascension. Dr. Kujawa unveils the urgent warnings hidden within modern UAP encounters and ancient mythologies. We explore the dangerous ideologies of transhumanism and posthumanism, which advocate for merging human consciousness with machines, and discuss why true spiritual consciousness cannot be uploaded or replicated by AI. Dr. Kujawa introduces the "Alien Goddess"—a divine feminine consciousness re-emerging to help humanity restore balance in a world dangerously tilted towards technology. This conversation is a powerful call for spiritual sovereignty, discernment, and the courage to turn within for truth. Join us to discover how to navigate our technological future, protect your spirit from digital delusion, and embrace the path of inner ascension. Episode Highlights The Rise of AI Ideologies Dr. Kujawa explains how the concepts of transhumanism (uploading consciousness to robotic bodies) and posthumanism (AI having superior access to divine mind) inspired her to write Alien Goddess as a response to the push to surrender our spiritual authority to AI. Who is the "Alien Goddess"? A deep dive into the multiple meanings of the Alien Goddess—as a being encountered in UFO apparitions (Virgin Mary, Mary Magdalene, the "White Lady"), as a shamanic nature entity like the Slavic Baba, and as a form of divine feminine consciousness available to all humans regardless of gender. Balancing Masculine and Feminine Consciousness The critical need to balance our world's over-reliance on masculine consciousness (logic, technology, "techne") with the intuitive, unifying power of feminine consciousness that connects us to nature and spirit. The Dangers of AI Spirituality Dr. Kujawa warns against the belief that AI can achieve Christ consciousness or channel spiritual entities. She explains how AI "hallucinates" (makes up answers to please us), lacks moral parameters, and has already caused real-world harm including suicide cases involving AI companions. Maintaining Spiritual Sovereignty A powerful call to action to use AI as a tool but never surrender your personal power, discernment, or connection to the divine. Don't create AI "gods and goddesses" or believe that algorithms have superior spiritual access. The Goddess in Ancient Mythologies How ancient mythologies reveal non-human intelligence found in nature itself—trees, animals, the intelligence of planet Earth—offering a different model for consciousness than artificial intelligence. The "White Lady" and Modern UAP Encounters Connecting the Alien Goddess concept to modern UAP encounters, including those of Chris Bledsoe in his book UFO of God, where beings present themselves with feminine, loving energy and bring warnings about humanity's direction. Ascension is an Inner Job Dr. Kujawa shares insights from the Gospel of Mary Magdalene, reminding us that the path to ascension and all spiritual truth is found within. She describes Mary Magdalene's four levels of ascension and encourages us to be mindful about which level of consciousness we make decisions from. Humanity serves as a portal connecting the divine and nature. •Guest: Dr. Joanna Kujawa •Website: JoannaKujawa.com •Book: Alien Goddess: UFOs, AI, and the Goddesses of Ascension (Sacred Stories) •Previous Book: The Other Goddess: Mary Magdalene and the Goddesses of Eros and Secret Knowledge •Host: Terri Ann Heiman •Spiritual Upgrade Breakthrough Call: Schedule your complimentary call here •December Forecast on YouTube TAI Jounaling with AI Body Mind Spirit World Thank you for tuning in to The Empowered Spirit Show!

Tres historias de encuentros nocturnos en los que nadie debía estar ahí: un puente vacío, una casa demasiado silenciosa y un techo que nunca debió tener visitantes. Presencias que observan, caminan y se esconden sin dejar rastro. Un episodio de memorias que aún persiguen a quienes las vivieron. Sin explicaciones. Sin respuestas. Bienvenido a Relatos de la Noche. —

In this critical national security briefing, Dr. Jerome Corsi is joined by Lt. Col. (Ret.) Tony Shaffer, former U.S. Army intelligence officer, Newsmax contributor, and national security expert, to expose why a deep-water port in Chile has become a major strategic flashpoint in the escalating U.S.–China global power struggle.China is moving aggressively to secure control over a strategically placed Pacific port in South America, cutting shipping time to Asia by over two weeks and giving Beijing direct access to rare earth minerals, lithium, agriculture, and energy resources. Dr. Corsi and Tony Shaffer warn this move is not commercial — it is geopolitical warfare disguised as trade. 

This is part 1 of a 2-part series exploring the future of farming seafood in the Gulf. Americans eat a lot of farmed seafood — but the vast majority of it comes from overseas. We just don't farm fish on a big scale in U.S. waters. Now that might start to change. There are proposals to build massive fish farms in U.S. federal waters. And guess which coast is likely to be the first home for these new farms? You guessed it, the Gulf.So is this a miracle cure or a looming ecological disaster?-----This series is produced in partnership with the Food and Environment Reporting Network.

The Read My Lips Game

Rod, Mo, Alex, and Chile talk about winning an award they didn't know  they won, Cheetos puffs, and play another round of The Read My Lips Game.

 If you're a scientist, and you apply for federal research funding, you'll ask for a specific dollar amount. Let's say you're asking for a million-dollar grant. Your grant covers the direct costs, things like the salaries of the researchers that you're paying. If you get that grant, your university might get an extra $500,000. That money is called “indirect costs,” but think of it as overhead: that money goes to lab space, to shared equipment, and so on.This is the system we've used to fund American research infrastructure for more than 60 years. But earlier this year, the Trump administration proposed capping these payments at just 15% of direct costs, way lower than current indirect cost rates. There are legal questions about whether the admin can do that. But if it does, it would force universities to fundamentally rethink how they do science.The indirect costs system is pretty opaque from the outside. Is the admin right to try and slash these indirect costs? Where does all that money go? And if we want to change how we fund research overhead, what are the alternatives? How do you design a research system to incentivize the research you actually wanna see in the world?I'm joined today by Pierre Azoulay from MIT Sloan and Dan Gross from Duke's Fuqua School of Business. Together with Bhaven Sampat at Johns Hopkins, they conducted the first comprehensive empirical study of how indirect costs actually work. Earlier this year, I worked with them to write up that study as a more accessible policy brief for IFP. They've assembled data on over 350 research institutions, and they found some striking results. While negotiated rates often exceed 50-60%, universities actually receive much less, due to built-in caps and exclusions.Moreover, the institutions that would be hit hardest by proposed cuts are those whose research most often leads to new drugs and commercial breakthroughs.Thanks to Katerina Barton, Harry Fletcher-Wood, and Inder Lohla for their help with this episode, and to Beez for her help on the charts.Let's say I'm a researcher at a university and I apply for a federal grant. I'm looking at cancer cells in mice. It will cost me $1 million to do that research — to pay grad students, to buy mice and test tubes. I apply for a grant from the National Institutes of Health, or NIH. Where do indirect costs come in?Dan Gross: Research generally incurs two categories of costs, much as business operations do.* Direct or variable costs are typically project-specific; they include salaries and consumable supplies.* Indirect or fixed costs are not as easily assigned to any particular project. [They include] things like lab space, data and computing resources, biosecurity, keeping the lights on and the buildings cooled and heated — even complying with the regulatory requirements the federal government imposes on researchers. They are the overhead costs of doing research.Pierre Azoulay: You will use those grad students, mice, and test tubes, the direct costs. But you're also using the lab space. You may be using a shared facility where the mice are kept and fed. Pieces of large equipment are shared by many other people to conduct experiments. So those are fixed costs from the standpoint of your research project.Dan: Indirect Cost Recovery (ICR) is how the federal government has been paying for the fixed cost of research for the past 60 years. This has been done by paying universities institution-specific fixed percentages on top of the direct cost of the research. That's the indirect cost rate. That rate is negotiated by institutions, typically every two to four years, supported by several hundred pages of documentation around its incurred costs over the recent funding cycle.The idea is to compensate federally funded researchers for the investments, infrastructure, and overhead expenses related to the research they perform for the government. Without that funding, universities would have to pay those costs out of pocket and, frankly, many would not be interested or able to do the science the government is funding them to do.Imagine I'm doing my mouse cancer science at MIT, Pierre's parent institution. Some time in the last four years, MIT had this negotiation with the National Institutes of Health to figure out what the MIT reimbursable rate is. But as a researcher, I don't have to worry about what indirect costs are reimbursable. I'm all mouse research, all day.Dan: These rates are as much of a mystery to the researchers as it is to the public. When I was junior faculty, I applied for an external grant from the National Science Foundation (NSF) — you can look up awards folks have won in the award search portal. It doesn't break down indirect and direct cost shares of each grant. You see the total and say, “Wow, this person got $300,000.” Then you go to write your own grant and realize you can only budget about 60% of what you thought, because the rest goes to overhead. It comes as a bit of a shock the first time you apply for grant funding.What goes into the overhead rates? Most researchers and institutions don't have clear visibility into that. The process is so complicated that it's hard even for those who are experts to keep track of all the pieces.Pierre: As an individual researcher applying for a project, you think about the direct costs of your research projects. You're not thinking about the indirect rate. When the research administration of your institution sends the application, it's going to apply the right rates.So I've got this $1 million experiment I want to run on mouse cancer. If I get the grant, the total is $1.5 million. The university takes that .5 million for the indirect costs: the building, the massive microscope we bought last year, and a tiny bit for the janitor. Then I get my $1 million. Is that right?Dan: Duke University has a 61% indirect cost rate. If I propose a grant to the NSF for $100,000 of direct costs — it might be for data, OpenAI API credits, research staff salaries — I would need to budget an extra $61,000 on top for ICR, bringing the total grant to $161,000.My impression is that most federal support for research happens through project-specific grants. It's not these massive institutional block grants. Is that right?Pierre: By and large, there aren't infrastructure grants in the science funding system. There are other things, such as center grants that fund groups of investigators. Sometimes those can get pretty large — the NIH grant for a major cancer center like Dana-Farber could be tens of millions of dollars per year.Dan: In the past, US science funding agencies did provide more funding for infrastructure and the instrumentation that you need to perform research through block grants. In the 1960s, the NSF and the Department of Defense were kicking up major programs to establish new data collection efforts — observatories, radio astronomy, or the Deep Sea Drilling project the NSF ran, collecting core samples from the ocean floor around the world. The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) — back then the Advanced Research Projects Agency (ARPA) — was investing in nuclear test detection to monitor adherence to nuclear test ban treaties. Some of these were satellite observation methods for atmospheric testing. Some were seismic measurement methods for underground testing. ARPA supported the installation of a network of seismic monitors around the world. Those monitors are responsible for validating tectonic plate theory. Over the next decade, their readings mapped the tectonic plates of the earth. That large-scale investment in research infrastructure is not as common in the US research policy enterprise today.That's fascinating. I learned last year how modern that validation of tectonic plate theory was. Until well into my grandparents' lifetime, we didn't know if tectonic plates existed.Dan: Santi, when were you born?1997.Dan: So I'm a good decade older than you — I was born in 1985. When we were learning tectonic plate theory in the 1990s, it seemed like something everybody had always known. It turns out that it had only been known for maybe 25 years.So there's this idea of federal funding for science as these massive pieces of infrastructure, like the Hubble Telescope. But although projects like that do happen, the median dollar the Feds spend on science today is for an individual grant, not installing seismic monitors all over the globe.Dan: You applied for a grant to fund a specific project, whose contours you've outlined in advance, and we provided the funding to execute that project.Pierre: You want to do some observations at the observatory in Chile, and you are going to need to buy a plane ticket — not first class, not business class, very much economy.Let's move to current events. In February of this year, the NIH announced it was capping indirect cost reimbursement at 15% on all grants.What's the administration's argument here?Pierre: The argument is there are cases where foundations only charge 15% overhead rate on grants — and universities acquiesce to such low rates — and the federal government is entitled to some sort of “most-favored nation” clause where no one pays less in overhead than they pay. That's the argument in this half-a-page notice. It's not much more elaborate than that.The idea is, the Gates Foundation says, “We will give you a grant to do health research and we're only going to pay 15% indirect costs.” Some universities say, “Thank you. We'll do that.” So clearly the universities don't need the extra indirect cost reimbursement?Pierre: I think so.Dan: Whether you can extrapolate from that to federal research funding is a different question, let alone if federal research was funding less research and including even less overhead. Would foundations make up some of the difference, or even continue funding as much research, if the resources provided by the federal government were lower? Those are open questions. Foundations complement federal funding, as opposed to substitute for it, and may be less interested in funding research if it's less productive.What are some reasons that argument might be misguided?Pierre: First, universities don't always say, “Yes” [to a researcher wishing to accept a grant]. At MIT, getting a grant means getting special authorization from the provost. That special authorization is not always forthcoming. The provost has a special fund, presumably funded out of the endowment, that under certain conditions they will dip into to make up for the missing overhead.So you've got some research that, for whatever reason, the federal government won't fund, and the Gates Foundation is only willing to fund it at this low rate, and the university has budgeted a little bit extra for those grants that it still wants.Pierre: That's my understanding. I know that if you're going to get a grant, you're going to have to sit in many meetings and cajole any number of administrators, and you don't always get your way.Second, it's not an apples-to-apples comparison [between federal and foundation grants] because there are ways to budget an item as a direct cost in a foundation grant that the government would consider an indirect cost. So you might budget some fractional access to a facility…Like the mouse microscope I have to use?Pierre: Yes, or some sort of Cryo-EM machine. You end up getting more overhead through the back door.The more fundamental way in which that approach is misguided is that the government wants its infrastructure — that it has contributed to through [past] indirect costs — to be leveraged by other funders. It's already there, it's been paid for, it's sitting idle, and we can get more bang for our buck if we get those additional funders to piggyback on that investment.Dan: That [other funders] might not be interested in funding otherwise.Why wouldn't they be interested in funding it otherwise? What shouldn't the federal government say, “We're going to pay less. If it's important research, somebody else will pay for it.”Dan: We're talking about an economies-of-scale problem. These are fixed costs. The more they're utilized, the more the costs get spread over individual research projects.For the past several decades, the federal government has funded an order of magnitude more university research than private firms or foundations. If you look at NSF survey data, 55% of university R&D is federally funded; 6% is funded by foundations. That is an order of magnitude difference. The federal government has the scale to support and extract value for whatever its goals are for American science.We haven't even started to get into the administrative costs of research. That is part of the public and political discomfort with indirect-cost recovery. The idea that this is money that's going to fund university bloat.I should lay my cards on the table here for readers. There are a ton of problems with the American scientific enterprise as it currently exists. But when you look at studies from a wide range of folks, it's obvious that R&D in American universities is hugely valuable. Federal R&D dollars more than pay for themselves. I want to leave room for all critiques of the scientific ecosystem, of the universities, of individual research ideas. But at this 30,000-foot level, federal R&D dollars are well spent.Dan: The evidence may suggest that, but that's not where the political and public dialogue around science policy is. Again, I'm going to bring in a long arc here. In the 1950s and 1960s, it was, “We're in a race with the Soviet Union. If we want to win this race, we're going to have to take some risky bets.” And the US did. It was more flexible with its investments in university and industrial science, especially related to defense aims. But over time, with the waning of these political pressures and with new budgetary pressures, the tenor shifted from, “Let's take chances” to “Let's make science and other parts of government more accountable.” The undercurrent of Indirect Cost Recovery policy debates has more of this accountability framing.This comes up in this comparison to foundation rates: “Is the government overpaying?” Clearly universities are willing to accept less from foundations. It comes up in this perception that ICR is funding administrative growth that may not be productive or socially efficient. Accountability seems to be a priority in the current day.Where are we right now [August 2025] on that 15% cap on indirect costs?Dan: Recent changes first kicked off on February 7th, when NIH posted its supplemental guidance, that introduced a policy that the direct cost rates that it paid on its grants would be 15% to institutions of higher education. That policy was then adopted by the NSF, the DOD, and the Department of Energy. All of these have gotten held up in court by litigation from universities. Things are stuck in legal limbo. Congress has presented its point of view that, “At least for now, I'd like to keep things as they are.” But this has been an object of controversy long before the current administration even took office in January. I don't think it's going away.Pierre: If I had to guess, the proposal as it first took shape is not what is going to end up being adopted. But the idea that overhead rates are an object of controversy — are too high, and need to be reformed — is going to stay relevant.Dan: Partly that's because it's a complicated issue. Partly there's not a real benchmark of what an appropriate Indirect Cost Recovery policy should be. Any way you try to fund the cost of research, you're going to run into trade-offs. Those are complicated.ICR does draw criticism. People think it's bloated or lacks transparency. We would agree some of these critiques are well-founded. Yet it's also important to remember that ICR pays for facilities and administration. It doesn't just fund administrative costs, which is what people usually associate it with. The share of ICR that goes to administrative costs is legally capped at 26% of direct costs. That cap has been in place since 1991. Many universities have been at that cap for many years — you can see this in public records. So the idea that indirect costs are going up over time, and that that's because of bloat at US universities, has to be incorrect, because the administrative rate has been capped for three decades.Many of those costs are incurred in service of complying with regulations that govern research, including the cost of administering ICR to begin with. Compiling great proposals every two to four years and a new round of negotiations — all of that takes resources. Those are among the things that indirect cost funding reimburses.Even then, universities appear to under-recover their true indirect costs of federally-sponsored research. We have examples from specific universities which have reported detailed numbers. That under-recovery means less incentive to invest in infrastructure, less capacity for innovation, fewer clinical trials. So there's a case to be made that indirect cost funding is too low.Pierre: The bottom line is we don't know if there is under- or over-recovery of indirect costs. There's an incentive for university administrators to claim there's under-recovery. So I take that with a huge grain of salt.Dan: It's ambiguous what a best policy would look like, but this is all to say that, first, public understanding of this complex issue is sometimes a bit murky. Second, a path forward has to embrace the trade-offs that any particular approach to ICR presents.From reading your paper, I got a much better sense that a ton of the administrative bloat of the modern university is responding to federal regulations on research. The average researcher reports spending almost half of their time on paperwork. Some of that is a consequence of the research or grant process; some is regulatory compliance.The other thing, which I want to hear more on, is that research tools seem to be becoming more expensive and complex. So the microscope I'm using today is an order of magnitude more expensive than the microscope I was using in 1950. And you've got to recoup those costs somehow.Pierre: Everything costs more than it used to. Research is subject to Baumol's cost disease. There are areas where there's been productivity gains — software has had an impact.The stakes are high because, if we get this wrong, we're telling researchers that they should bias the type of research they're going to pursue and training that they're going to undergo, with an eye to what is cheaper. If we reduce the overhead rate, we should expect research that has less fixed cost and more variable costs to gain in favor — and research that is more scale-intensive to lose favor. There's no reason for a benevolent social planner to find that a good development. The government should be neutral with respect to the cost structure of research activities. We don't know in advance what's going to be more productive.Wouldn't a critic respond, “We're going to fund a little bit of indirect costs, but we're not going to subsidize stuff that takes huge amounts of overhead. If universities want to build that fancy new telescope because it's valuable, they'll do it.” Why is that wrong when it comes to science funding?Pierre: There's a grain of truth to it.Dan: With what resources though? Who's incentivized to invest in this infrastructure? There's not a paid market for science. Universities can generate some licensing fees from patents that result from science. But those are meager revenue streams, realistically. There are reasons to believe that commercial firms are under-incentivized to invest in basic scientific research. Prior to 1940, the scientific enterprise was dramatically smaller because there wasn't funding the way that there is today. The exigencies of war drew the federal government into funding research in order to win. Then it was productive enough that folks decided we should keep doing it. History and economic logic tells us that you're not going to see as much science — especially in these fixed-cost heavy endeavors — when those resources aren't provided by the public.Pierre: My one possible answer to the question is, “The endowment is going to pay for it.” MIT has an endowment, but many other universities do not. What does that mean for them? The administration also wants to tax the heck out of the endowment.This is a good opportunity to look at the empirical work you guys did in this great paper. As far as I can tell, this was one of the first real looks at what indirect costs rates look like in real life. What did you guys find?Dan: Two decades ago, Pierre and Bhaven began collecting information on universities' historical indirect cost rates. This is a resource that was quietly sitting on the shelf waiting for its day. That day came this past February. Bhaven and Pierre collected information on negotiated ICR rates for the past 60 years. During this project, we also collected the most recent versions of those agreements from university websites to bring the numbers up to the current day.We pulled together data for around 350 universities and other research institutions. Together, they account for around 85% of all NIH research funding over the last 20 years.We looked at their:* Negotiated indirect cost rates, from institutional indirect cost agreements with the government, and their;* Effective rates [how much they actually get when you look at grant payments], using NIH grant funding data.Negotiated cost rates have gone up. That has led to concerns that the overhead cost of research is going up — these claims that it's funding administrative bloat. But our most important finding is that there's a large gap between the sticker rates — the negotiated ICR rates that are visible to the public, and get floated on Twitter as examples of university exorbitance — and the rates that universities are paid in practice, at least on NIH grants; we think it's likely the case for NSF and other agency grants too.An institution's effective ICR funding rates are much, much lower than their negotiated rates and they haven't changed much for 40 years. If you look at NIH's annual budget, the share of grant funding that goes to indirect costs has been roughly constant at 27-28% for a long time. That implies an effective rate of around 40% over direct costs. Even though many institutions have negotiated rates of 50-70%, they usually receive 30-50%.The difference between those negotiated rates and the effective rates seems to be due to limits and exceptions built into NIH grant rules. Those rules exclude some grants, such as training grants, from full indirect cost funding. They also exclude some direct costs from the figure used to calculate ICR rates. The implication is that institutions receive ICR payments based on a smaller portion of their incurred direct costs than typically assumed. As the negotiated direct cost falls, you see a university being paid a higher indirect cost rate off a smaller — modified — direct cost base, to recover the same amount of overhead.Is it that the federal government is saying for more parts of the grant, “We're not going to reimburse that as an indirect cost.”?Dan: This is where we shift a little bit from assessment to speculation. What's excluded from total direct costs? One thing is researcher salaries above a certain level.What is that level? Can you give me a dollar amount?Dan: It's a $225,700 annual salary. There aren't enough people being paid that on these grants for that to explain the difference, especially when you consider that research salaries are being paid to postdocs and grad students.You're looking around the scientists in your institution and thinking, “That's not where the money is”?Dan: It's not, even if you consider Principal Investigators. If you consider postdocs and grad students, it certainly isn't.Dan: My best hunch is that research projects have become more capital-intensive, and only a certain level of expenditure on equipment can be included in the modified total direct cost base. I don't have smoking gun evidence, it's my intuition.In the paper, there's this fascinating chart where you show the institutions that would get hit hardest by a 15% cap tend to be those that do the most valuable medical research. Explain that on this framework. Is it that doing high-quality medical research is capital-intensive?Pierre: We look at all the private-sector patents that build on NIH research. The more a university stands to lose under the administration policy, the more it has contributed over the past 25 years — in research the private sector found relevant in terms of pharmaceutical patents.This is counterintuitive if your whole model of funding for science is, “Let's cut subsidies for the stuff the private sector doesn't care about — all this big equipment.” When you cut those subsidies, what suffers most is the stuff that the private sector likes.Pierre: To me it makes perfect sense. This is the stuff that the private sector would not be willing to invest in on its own. But that research, having come into being, is now a very valuable input into activities that profit-minded investors find interesting and worth taking a risk on.This is the argument for the government to fund basic research?Pierre: That argument has been made at the macro-level forever, but the bibliometric revolution of the past 15 years allows you to look at this at the nano-level. Recently I've been able to look at the history of Ozempic. The main patent cites zero publicly-funded research, but it cites a bunch of patents, including patents taken up by academics. Those cite the foundational research performed by Joel Habener and his team at Massachusetts General Hospital in the early 1980s that elucidated the role of GLP-1 as a potential target. This grant was first awarded to Habener in 1979, was renewed every four or five years, and finally died in 2008, when he moved on to other things. Those chains are complex, but we can now validate the macro picture at this more granular level.Dan: I do want to add one qualification which also suggests some directions for the future. There are things we still can't see — despite Pierre's zeal. Our projections of the consequence of a 15% rate cap are still pretty coarse. We don't know what research might not take place. We don't know what indirect cost categories are exposed, or how universities would reallocate. All those things are going to be difficult to project without a proper experiment.One thing that I would've loved to have more visibility into is, “What is the structure of indirect costs at universities across the country? What share of paid indirect costs are going to administrative expenses? What direct cost categories are being excluded?” We would need a more transparency into the system to know the answers.Does that information have to be proprietary? It's part of negotiations with the federal government about how much the taxpayer will pay for overhead on these grants. Which piece is so special that it can't be shared?Pierre: You are talking to the wrong people here because we're meta-scientists, so our answer is none of it should be private.Dan: But now you have to ask the university lawyers.What would the case from the universities be? “We can't tell the public what we spend subsidy on”?Pierre: My sense is that there are institutions of academia that strike most lay people as completely bizarre.Hard to explain without context?Pierre: People haven't thought about it. They will find it so bizarre that they will typically jump from the odd aspect to, “That must be corruption.” University administrators are hugely attuned to that. So the natural defensive approach is to shroud it in secrecy. This way we don't see how the sausage is made.Dan: Transparency can be a blessing and a curse. More information supports more considered decision-making. It also opens the door to misrepresentation by critics who have their own agendas. Pierre's right: there are some practices that to the public might look unusual — or might be familiar, but one might say, “How is that useful expense?” Even a simple thing like having an administrator who manages a faculty's calendar might seem excessive. Many people manage their own calendars. At the same time, when you think about how someone's time is best used, given their expertise, and heavy investment in specialized human capital, are emails, calendaring, and note-taking the right things for scientists [to be doing]? Scientists spend a large chunk of their time now administering grants. Does it make sense to outsource that and preserve the scientist's time for more science?When you put forward data that shows some share of federal research funding is going to fund administrative costs, at first glance it might look wasteful, yet it might still be productive. But I would be able to make a more considered judgment on a path forward if I had access to more facts, including what indirect costs look like under the hood.One last question: in a world where you guys have the ear of the Senate, political leadership at the NIH, and maybe the universities, what would you be pushing for on indirect costs?Pierre: I've come to think that this indirect cost rate is a second-best institution: terrible and yet superior to many of the alternatives. My favorite alternative would be one where there would be a flat rate applied to direct costs. That would be the average effective rate currently observed — on the order of 40%.You're swapping out this complicated system to — in the end — reimburse universities the same 40%.Pierre: We know there are fixed costs. Those fixed costs need to be paid. We could have an elaborate bureaucratic apparatus to try to get it exactly right, but it's mission impossible. So why don't we give up on that and set a rate that's unlikely to lead to large errors in under- or over-recovery. I'm not particularly attached to 40%. But the 15% that was contemplated seems absurdly low.Dan: In the work we've done, we do lay out different approaches. The 15% rate wouldn't fully cut out the negotiation process: to receive that, you have to document your overhead costs and demonstrate that they reached that level. In any case, it's simplifying. It forces more cost-sharing and maybe more judicious investments by universities. But it's also so low that it's likely to make a significant amount of high-value, life-improving research economically unattractive.The current system is complicated and burdensome. It might encourage investment in less productive things, particularly because universities can get it paid back through future ICR. At the same time, it provides pretty good incentives to take on expensive, high-value research on behalf of the public.I would land on one of two alternatives. One of those is close to what Pierre said, with fixed rates, but varied by institution types: one for universities, one for medical schools, one for independent research institutions — because we do see some variation in their cost structures. We might set those rates around their historical average effective rates, since those haven't changed for quite a long time. If you set different rates for different categories of institution, the more finely you slice the pie, the closer you end up to the current system. So that's why I said maybe, at a very high level, four categories.The other I could imagine is to shift more of these costs “above the line” — to adapt the system to enable more of these indirect costs to be budgeted as direct costs in grants. This isn't always easy, but presumably some things we currently call indirect costs could be accounted for in a direct cost manner. Foundations do it a bit more than the federal government does, so that could be another path forward.There's no silver bullet. Our goal was to try to bring some understanding to this long-running policy debate over how to fund the indirect cost of research and what appropriate rates should be. It's been a recurring question for several decades and now is in the hot seat again. Hopefully through this work, we've been able to help push that dialogue along. This is a public episode.

El Congreso chileno aprobó una ley que impedirá a los estudiantes llevar teléfonos móviles a las aulas desde marzo de 2026. La medida busca mejorar la concentración y la convivencia. Numerosos chilenos esperan que esta ley se convierta en un arma para luchar contra el acoso escolar (bullying) y las denuncias públicas (funas), dice el sociólogo Octavio Avendaño. Los estudiantes chilenos no podrán ingresar teléfonos celulares a las aulas a partir de marzo próximo. El Congreso aprobó una ley que prohíbe estos dispositivos en los colegios con el objetivo de mejorar la convivencia y el rendimiento escolar. La norma regirá en todos los establecimientos públicos y privados. Según los promotores de la ley, la meta es fortalecer "la concentración, el rendimiento, la convivencia y la salud emocional" de los estudiantes. Combatir el acoso escolar es otro de los objetivos que cuenta con amplio consenso, explica Octavio Avendaño, director del Departamento de Sociología de la Universidad de Chile. Padres y profesores esperaban la medida "Existía una opinión compartida sobre la necesidad de regular el uso de celulares en las escuelas, entre otras cosas porque no solo podían alterar el proceso educativo, sino también facilitar situaciones como funas [denuncias públicas] en redes sociales y hostigamientos entre estudiantes que se acercan a la adolescencia. Es una medida esperada por los padres y por la comunidad educativa en general", señala Avendaño. Otro factor clave es el control parental frente a contenidos inapropiados para los más pequeños. "El acceso a información o material indebido, como la pornografía, es un problema que va más allá del proceso educativo. La regulación busca dar herramientas para limitar contenidos en espacios donde los padres no tienen el control directo", añade. Chile y Brasil se han mostrado pioneros en este tipo de regulaciones. Aún es pronto para evaluar el impacto que tendrá la ausencia de teléfonos móviles en los estudiantes, especialmente en sus comportamientos sociales.

The Pumpkin Spice Price is Right

Rod, Mo, Alex, and Chile talk about getting busted for drinking when they were underage, tell you the most common things pets swallow, and play another round of The Pumpkin Spice Price is Right.

A thrilling tour of Earth that shows the search for extraterrestrial life starts in our own backyard.Is there life off Earth? Bound by the limitations of spaceflight, a growing number of astrobiologists investigate the question by studying life on our planet. Astronomer and author Jon Willis shows us how it's done, allowing readers to envision extraterrestrial landscapes by exploring their closest Earth analogs in The Pale Blue Data Point: An Earth-Based Perspective on the Search for Alien Life (U Chicago Press, 2025). With Willis, we dive into the Pacific Ocean from the submersible-equipped E/V Nautilus to ponder the uncharted seas of Saturn's and Jupiter's moons; search the Australian desert for some of Earth's oldest fossils and consider the prospects for a Martian fossil hunt; visit mountaintop observatories in Chile to search for the telltale twinkle of extrasolar planets; and eavesdrop on dolphins in the Bahamas to imagine alien minds.With investigations ranging from meteorite hunting to exoplanet detection, Willis conjures up alien worlds and unthought-of biological possibilities, speculating what life might look like on other planets by extrapolating from what we can see on Earth, our single “pale blue dot”—as Carl Sagan famously called it—or, in Willis's reframing, scientists' “pale blue data point.” Learn more about your ad choices.

Why You Can't Buy Switzerland's Exceptional Wines Abroad? Why does Switzerland grow so many grape varieties, and which ones are the key players that define the country's wine regions? What makes high-altitude wine regions uniquely capable of producing wines that balance great concentration without being too heavy? In this episode of the Unreserved Wine Talk podcast, I'm chatting with Simon Hardy, author of The Smart Traveller's Wine Guide to Switzerland. You can find the wines we discussed at https://www.nataliemaclean.com/winepicks.   Giveaway Two of you are going to win a copy of Simon Hardy's terrific new book, The Smart Traveller's Wine Guide to Switzerland. To qualify, all you have to do is email me at natalie@nataliemaclean.com and let me know that you've posted a review of the podcast. I'll choose two people randomly from those who contact me. Good luck!   Highlights How did a teenage exchange trip to a small Burgundy wine family spark Simon's lifelong fascination with wine? What did he discover about everyday French wine culture while living with a Burgundian family? How did a simple holiday job in London unexpectedly expand Simon's exposure to the world of wine? What impact did nearly two decades in Switzerland have on Simon's understanding of vineyards, terroir, and regional identity? How did a 30-page free e-book on Swiss wine evolve into a major publishing project? What makes The Smart Traveller's Wine Guide to Switzerland different? Why is Switzerland's wine industry so small and so little Swiss wine found abroad? How do Switzerland's six wine regions differ in grapes, climate, language, and vineyard culture? Why does the country grow more Pinot Noir than Chile, yet remain almost invisible in global wine conversations? What makes Chasselas the quiet backbone of Swiss white wine? How do classic Swiss foods showcase the subtlety of Chasselas? What does extreme altitude viticulture reveal about the character of Switzerland's mountain wines?   Key Takeaways Why is Swiss wine such a rarity worldwide even though it's highly regarded? As Simon explains, Switzerland… is a small country, but when it comes to the wine sector, virtually everything is relatively small-scale. So in terms of producers of in excess of a million bottles, there are very few of them. The majority are small family-run businesses producing somewhere between 50 to 70,000 bottles a year. It's very rare that a single producer will have a single grape planted and be a specialist and expert in that grape. they would have at least 6 to 10 grape varieties planted, if not even more, and be very proud of the fact that they have this diversity in their vineyards. Each wine is a relatively small quantity and most of it stays in the country. It's less than 2% that gets exported. Why does Switzerland grow so many grape varieties, and which ones are the key players that define the country's wine regions? So other than Chasselas, there's Pinot Noir, which is actually the most planted grape in Switzerland. There's more Pinot Noir produced in Switzerland than in Chile. Gamay, and Merlot. Those are the big four in about two-thirds of the vineyards. you've got an incredibly long list of those 253. lots of very small plantings of… largely insignificant varieties, often experimental. The others I went for were those where they play a significant role within a given region. What makes high-altitude wine regions uniquely capable of producing wines that balance great concentration without being too heavy? I didn't do a word count in the book, but I think the terminology 'alpine freshness' probably gets repeated a few times. This diurnal variation is absolutely critical. You get more than adequate sunlight and sun hours during the day in summer for full ripening, not an issue. But you get these plunging temperatures at night, which helps to maintain the acidity levels. So you get the perfect combination of fresh acidity and phenomenal ripeness. Put the two together, that is probably if there's any calling card. And it's not just Swiss wine. It's the same story in Valtellina, in Aosta Valley in Italy, in Alto Adige, in Savoie. The effect of being in these mountainous areas, where you can plant at altitude but where you have this big drop off in temperature at nighttime.   About Simon Hardy Simon Hardy brings a rare blend of multinational brand marketing and entrepreneurial flair in the world of wine. Simon champions Swiss wine in the UK, organising Swiss Wine Week London for Swiss Wine Promotion. He is also the co-founder of Alpina Vina, a cross-border guide to Alpine wine regions, including documentary films he writes and presents.

In this powerful episode, Daniel Ettinger and Ashlee Bishop sit down with Nina Jackel, founder of Lady Freethinker, for an in-depth conversation about the global fight against animal cruelty and what it takes to create real, lasting change.Nina shares her remarkable journey from freelance journalist to leading an international nonprofit that exposes abuse, funds on-the-ground rescuers, and drives policy change around the world. From shutting down dog meat auction houses in South Korea to helping authorities dismantle a dogfighting ring in Chile—resulting in the longest animal cruelty sentence in the nation's history—Nina walks us through some of Lady Freethinker's most impactful victories.The discussion digs into the evolving landscape of online animal cruelty, challenges in prosecuting abuse cases under current laws, and why cross-organization communication remains one of the biggest obstacles in animal advocacy. Daniel, Ashlee, and Nina explore what meaningful collaboration could look like—from local enforcement to global activism—and how summits, networking, and unified messaging could strengthen the field.Listeners will also hear candid personal updates, reflections on leadership in animal welfare, and actionable ways to support Lady Freethinker's work, including their investigative efforts, global campaigns, and upcoming initiative to tackle social media cruelty in 2026.If you care about animals, accountability, and the future of animal protection, this is an episode you won't want to miss.

VIII En este episodio de La Llamada de la Luna, llevo a mis oyentes a un territorio profundamente inquietante: el mundo de los niños sobrenaturales, esas presencias que tanto desconciertan porque mezclan dos polos que deberían ser opuestos: la inocencia y el terror. Desapariciones, Apariciones, Visitante de Dormitorio, Asesinatos, Teorías, Historias o Leyendas… pero sobre todo, aunténtico terror y Misterio. Comienzo recordando que, en el programa anterior, abrimos por primera vez el expediente de los Niños de Ojos Negros, los famosos BEK, y que muchos se quedaron con ganas de saber más. Por eso, en este nuevo capítulo, cumplo mi promesa: ofrezco casos extra, especialmente perturbadores, y además amplío el viaje para explorar otras apariciones infantiles que, aunque no siempre se relacionen directamente con los BEK, comparten ese mismo tono imposible que desafía todo lo que creemos saber sobre el mundo real. Empiezo hablando de un incidente que, por sus circunstancias, sobresale incluso dentro de la literatura sobre este fenómeno: un encuentro con BEKs dentro de una base aérea de élite en California. Un lugar donde el miedo no debería existir y donde la vigilancia tecnológica haría imposible que alguien y mucho menos dos niños aparecieran sin ser detectados. Sin embargo, allí están: dos figuras infantiles que avanzan desde la oscuridad hacia el perímetro iluminado, incapaces de cruzar esa barrera de luz pero capaces de sembrar el caos en los sensores, cámaras térmicas y equipos militares. Relato cómo uno de los soldados, sintió peligro. Un instinto tan profundo que lo dejó marcado incluso después de que aquellas criaturas desaparecieran sin dejar rastro. Tras esta entrada contundente, paso a un caso raro: el de un hombre de Ohio que tuvo dos encuentros separados en el tiempo con los mismos niños de ojos negros. La mayoría de los testimonios cuentan encuentros puntuales, momentos fugaces que los testigos nunca más vuelven a experimentar. Pero aquí hablo de un fenómeno que se repite, que parece seguir a la víctima, que incluso acaba dirigiéndose a ella por su nombre, un nombre que nunca fue revelado ni mencionado. Este caso abre la puerta a otra interpretación del fenómeno: ¿y si estas entidades, más que aparecer al azar, escogen a sus testigos y los buscan deliberadamente? Luego amplío el tema con un relato encontrado en foros estadounidenses, donde una mujer recuerda un encuentro ocurrido en la zona rural de Appalachia. Su historia es ambigua: no afirma que fueran BEK, pero todo encaja salvo los ojos, que no recuerda. Describo cómo ella y su novio, aparcados junto al bosque, vieron a varios niños salir de la arboleda con unas misteriosas luces tenues. No hablaban, no reaccionaban, no actuaban como niños perdidos. Y, sobre todo, aparecían fuera de todo contexto posible. Es un caso que refuerza la idea de que estos encuentros no siempre siguen las reglas del mito: a veces se mezclan con otros fenómenos, otras edades, otras formas. Después, doy un giro radical, emocional y temático. Dejo atrás lo sobrenatural puro para adentrarme en un terreno devastador: los casos históricos de infanticidio y abandono infantil en la España rural de los siglos XIX y XX. Explico cómo miles de niños eran abandonados cada año, cómo su mortalidad superaba el 80% en algunos periodos, y cómo la pobreza, la vergüenza y la falta de recursos empujaron a muchas mujeres a decisiones terribles. Entre estos casos, narro uno de los más sobrecogedores: el Niño del Río Nora, hallado en Asturias en 1923. Un bebé arrojado al agua, cuyo crimen jamás se resolvió. El tono aquí cambia: ya no hablo de leyendas, sino de tragedias reales que explican por qué, en tantas zonas rurales, las historias de niños espectrales se transmitieron de generación en generación. Porque la muerte infantil fue una realidad cotidiana, traumática y desgarradora. Ademas esta historia, tiene detalles muy extraños. Y después de ese descenso a la historia más dura, ofrezco otro cambio de paisaje: viajamos a Chile, concretamente a la isla de Chiloé, un lugar donde las leyendas indígenas, la magia, la brujería y la naturaleza salvaje conviven como si formaran parte de la vida diaria. Relato el caso del niño José Alexis Salazar, de 8 años, que se perdió en el bosque durante ocho días en 2003. Cuando fue encontrado sucio, hambriento, deshidratado, pero vivo contó una historia increíble: durante ese tiempo, según él, fue cuidado por una pareja extraña. Describo cómo la policía jamás halló ninguna cueva, ninguna huella, ninguna evidencia de que alguien más hubiera estado allí, dónde él aseguro haber permanecido. Y cómo el relato del niño, sin fisuras, sin contradicciones, persistió durante años. En Chiloé, este caso se vinculó con la tradición de la Recta Provincia, la sociedad secreta de brujos del archipiélago. Pero incluso sin esa conexión, la historia por sí sola ya es perturbadora. Después de este episodio, regreso a Europa y doy un salto a la Edad Media con uno de los casos históricos más extraños documentados: los Niños Verdes de Woolpit. Explico los detalles, los cronistas que lo registraron, los testimonios contemporáneos, y cómo estos dos niños, una niña mayor y un niño pequeño, aparecieron en el siglo XII en un campo inglés, con la piel verde, hablando una lengua desconocida y negándose a comer cualquier alimento excepto habas crudas. A medida que crecieron y aprendieron el idioma, relataron que venían de un lugar crepuscular, donde nunca había luz plena, y que se perdieron siguiendo un sonido extraño. Por mucha explicación racional que intentemos aplicar, algo queda siempre fuera del alcance. Recordaremos tambien la historia que una vez, una oyente del programa nos manria. Una histria realmente aterradora, que no tiene argumento lógico, pero que ella me aseguro que es tal como lo cuenta. Y cuando el oyente está ya sumergido en ese territorio ambiguo entre lo histórico, lo sobrenatural y lo imposible, introduzco el que quizás sea el bloque más inquietante del episodio: el Niño Blanco de Las Hurdes. Una criatura que aparece desde el siglo XIX en los caminos rurales de esta comarca extremeña cargada de leyendas: una figura infantil, luminosa, envuelta en una especie de mortaja, con proporciones deformadas, que algunos ven flotar y que otros describen como un feto que camina. Presento los testimonios: desde el avistamiento de 1870 por un grupo de diez personas, hasta los casos modernos recogidos por investigadores como Israel J. Espino o Iker Jimenez. La experiencia de Juan José Azabal en 1987, la aparición que lo hizo huir despavorido con sus amigos; el testimonio del motorista Pedro Martín, cuya moto se detuvo justo antes de que la figura atravesara la tapia del cementerio; la historia doméstica recogida por José María Domínguez; y el estremecedor encuentro de Antonio R., que escuchó primero el llanto antes de ver la figura luminosa a pocos metros. El clímax del episodio llega con el caso de David Gutiérrez, quien vio a esta figura dentro de su propia casa, flotando en el dormitorio mientras dormía su familia. Describo la escena con todo su horror: la criatura suspendida, blanquecina, de ojos enormes, acercándose lentamente hacia él, hasta que el instinto de supervivencia lo obliga a huir de su propia habitación. Cierro el episodio reflexionando sobre la persistencia del fenómeno, sobre los numerosos testigos con nombres y apellidos, sobre la mezcla de folclore, tragedia histórica y experiencias personales que conforman el paisaje de Las Hurdes. Y comparo estas historias con teorías antiguas sobre almas perdidas, niños muertos sin bautizar, entidades que no comprenden la muerte, apariciones que buscan ser vistas porque no saben adónde ir. Es, en definitiva, un episodio que viaja por diferentes formas del miedo infantil: desde los BEK hasta los espectros rurales, desde las desapariciones reales hasta los testimonios contemporáneos. Un recorrido que une lugares tan distintos como California, Ohio, Appalachia, Asturias, Chiloé, la Inglaterra medieval y Las Hurdes, todos bajo un mismo tema: la presencia del niño como figura liminal, como símbolo del misterio último, como frontera entre lo humano y lo desconocido.

TEMPO DE REFLETIR 01601 – 2 de dezembro de 2025 Lucas 21:28 – Quando começarem a acontecer estas coisas, levantem-se e ergam a cabeça, porque estará próxima a redenção de vocês. O escritor e pregador Vance Havner diz que “os primeiros cristãos não aguardavam um acontecimento, mas aguardavam Alguém chegar. Aguardar o trem chegar é uma coisa, mas aguardar chegar alguém que amamos é bem diferente.” Como pessoas que aguardam a segunda vinda de Cristo, devemos centralizar nossa atenção mais sobre Jesus do que sobre os eventos que antecedem Sua vinda. Jesus colocou diante de Seus discípulos o panorama político, os fenômenos naturais e a condição social e espiritual dos últimos dias. Os sinais que deixou como prenúncio de Sua vinda sempre estiveram presentes em todas as gerações, mas não podemos escapar à realidade de que houve um crescimento exponencial de todos os desastres naturais. Também por estarmos interligados através da internet e da mídia, isso permite que tenhamos acesso imediato ao que acontece em todo o mundo, produzindo a impressão de que tudo está pior do que é de fato. Jesus falou de fome e pestilência. No entanto, nunca se produziu tanto alimento no mundo como agora; mas a fome continua sendo parte persistente da história da humanidade. Tome também como exemplo os terremotos. Alguns ocasionam perda de vidas e grandes prejuízos materiais, como os que aconteceram recentemente no Haiti e no Chile. As notícias igualmente salientam o aumento de desastres naturais: elevação da temperatura dos oceanos, derretimento das geleiras, desaparecimento das florestas tropicais… O que vamos fazer com essa quantidade de informações? Elas devem nos levar a esperar a volta de Jesus de maneira saudável. Se elas trazem medo e incerteza, quem sabe não é porque estamos lendo os sinais de Sua vinda de maneira incorreta? Cada um dos sinais deve ser uma lembrança da promessa que Ele fez: “Virei outra vez.” Reflita sobre isso no dia de hoje e ore comigo agora: Ajuda-nos, Pai, a compreender os tempos em que estamos vivendo. Ajuda-nos a estarmos preparados para o encontro com Cristo. Por favor! Em nome de Jesus, amém!

En este episodio de Relatos de la Noche, la muerte no es un final… sino una presencia que insiste en hacerse escuchar. Acompáñanos a través de cuatro testimonios que comienzan con un grito en una funeraria y terminan en lo más profundo del monte, donde las voces —y las sombras— parecen tener un propósito que no alcanzamos a comprender. Historias de familia, de campos lejanos, de caminos solitarios y de noches en las que algo llama por tu nombre o te observa desde la oscuridad. No sabemos si son advertencias, despedidas o algo más antiguo… pero esta noche, caminaremos juntos hasta donde esas voces nos permitan llegar. Estás escuchando Relatos de la Noche. —

En este episodio de Fragmentos de Historia el sacerdote y escritor Cristián Sahli y la historiadora María Luisa Harrison fueron entrevistados sobre los inicios del Opus Dei en Chile. En los últimos años, ambos han investigado sobre la historia del Opus Dei en Chile, desde sus primeros pasos en 1950. En este episodio, exploraremos cómo aquel pequeño comienzo —la llegada de un sacerdote y la apertura de las primeras residencias universitarias— dio origen a múltiples proyectos con impacto social, humano y espiritual en todo el país.

On Episode 190 of Say What You Mean with Jéan P the MC, we sit down with Michael Carvajal, the owner/operator behind Mike's Pizza, the New York–style slice shop inside the Fourth Street Collective in Canton, Ohio.Born in Santiago, Chile and raised just outside New York City, Mike grew up around the classic slice shops that shaped his love for the perfect pie. After moving to Canton in 2012 and searching for a taste of home, he took matters into his own hands—experimenting, researching, and refining a recipe that captured the real-deal NYC slice.He teamed up with Ryan Miller of Deli Ohio, built a loyal following through years of pop-ups, and eventually launched Mike's Pizza as part of a growing food community on Fourth Street.In this episode, we talk:

Esta noche nos vamos a meter de lleno en uno de los temas que más inquieta a la comunidad: las brujas… pero no las de cuento, sino las que parecen vivir pared con pared con nosotros. Escucharemos la historia de alguien que descubre, casi por accidente, que su vecina hace cosas extrañas en el jardín trasero, cosas que poco a poco empiezan a sentirse también del otro lado de la barda. Desde ahí, las noches ya no vuelven a ser silenciosas. Viajaremos también hasta una finca en Costa Rica donde, en medio de fogatas familiares y juegos nocturnos, algo que no debería existir se acerca demasiado a uno de los primos; conoceremos a una oyente marcada por la brujería desde antes de nacer, que intenta proteger a su hijo de una presencia pegada a su sangre; y, por último, seguiremos a un joven que lleva años soñando con la misma mujer vestida de negro… hasta que un día la ve caminando frente a él en la vida real. Si están listos para historias de brujas, rituales y presencias que vuelven una y otra vez, apaguen la luz, pónganse cómodos… Ya comienza Relatos de la Noche. —

Maybe the answer really is to be found in early 1970's Chilean socialism…  The Unaccountability Machine: Why Big Systems Make Terrible Decisions—and How the World Lost Its Mind By: Dan Davies Published: 2024 304 Pages Briefly, what is this book about? The development of accountability sinks, a construct used by governments, corporations, and really any large-scale organization to deflect responsibility (and potential punishment) away from individuals and into processes. As part of his critique and his hoped for solution Davies leans heavily into management cybernetics and Stafford Beer. If neither of those ring a bell perhaps you've encountered Beer's most famous saying, "The purpose of a system is what it does."  What's the author's angle? Davies sits in a weird place ideologically. He's a huge fan of Beer, and spends lots of time talking about Beer's partnership with Salvador Allende, the president of Chile in the early 70s. They partnered to create Cybersyn, a cybernetic management system for the whole economy. Davies admits it wouldn't have worked at the time, but seems to think that maybe with AI something like it might work now? On the other hand, in many places he seems to be channeling Taleb, and while I can't find anything by Taleb directly commenting on Cybersyn, I'm confident he would not be a fan. Davies also levels significant criticism at Milton Friedman, which makes sense in the Chilean context, but it feels out of character for a soberly written business book.  Who should read this book? I read it as part of a Slate Star Codex/Astral Codex Ten book club. If that means anything to you, you'll probably find the book interesting. Additionally, anyone looking for another way to describe the hidden brokenness of the world will probably enjoy the book.  What does the book have to say about the future?

Kyle shares everything from why we should all do this to strategies for interviewing and asking great questions that will not only change your connection to your parents, but also all of your relationships whether romantic, strictly platonic, or even in the professional world. This book will inspire you and change your life. Tune in to learn why. More about Kyle: An award-winning journalist, pro big wave surfer, and podcast host with over 400 episodes, Kyle Thiermann is curiosity in motion. His podcast guests include longevity expert Dr. Peter Attia, 3x Surfing World Champion Mick Fanning, and his own dad—where the idea for his first book began.  Blending witty narrative with practical advice, One Last Question Before You Go explores the art of interviewing our parents. As Thiermann writes, “Questions are invitations to see our parents in the present tense, and a declaration that we care about the wisdom of elders in a culture obsessed with youth.” Kyle has written for Outside, SURFER, and Discovery Channel, covering indigenous conflicts in Chile and exposing how Hawaii's wild pigs are killing coral. A cultural provocateur at heart, Kyle has spearheaded national advertising campaigns for cult brands including MUDWTR, Yeti, and Patagonia, crafting billboards above LAX and viral commercials seen by over 100 million people.

Esta noche nos adentramos en algunos de los encuentros más inquietantes que han llegado a este espacio: historias donde lo sobrenatural aparece en los lugares menos esperados… y a veces demasiado cerca. Vamos desde las experiencias de quienes trabajan rodeados de silencio y cuerpos inmóviles —que quizá no siempre están tan inmóviles— hasta un antiguo pueblo donde una niña presencia algo que ninguna persona debería ver en la casa de sus abuelos. También escucharemos el caso de una familia que descubre, tarde, que no todos los males vienen de enfermedades; algunos llegan escondidos en pequeñas cosas colocadas con mala intención. Y cerraremos con una experiencia ocurrida en plena fiesta de Halloween, cuando un simple asistente digital se convierte en la puerta para algo que no debería haber hablado. Son relatos distintos entre sí, pero todos comparten esa sensación que se queda rondando después: la idea de que hay cosas que nos miran, que nos escuchan, y que esperan el momento adecuado para manifestarse. Si están listos, apaguen la luz y acomódense. Ya comienza Relatos de la Noche. —
