In this morning's class, Rabbi Bernath explored the timeless lesson hidden in a sleepy Midrash. When Rabbi Akiva saw his students dozing off, he woke them not with rebuke, but with revelation: the story of Queen Esther's 127 provinces, mirroring the 127 years of Sarah's life. From this, the Chedushei HaRim teaches that Sarah lived every moment so fully that each second became a kingdom of its own. Rabbi Akiva's message? Every moment we “sleep through” is a world lost. Through humor, wisdom, and a dash of Churchill's charm, Rabbi Bernath reminded us that time is not money, it's life itself.Takeaways:Every Moment Matters: Like Sarah, each of us has the power to turn seconds into significance.Wakefulness Is Spiritual: Falling asleep… literally or metaphorically means missing the miracle of now.Time Is Life, Not Money: The Rebbe taught that time is not a commodity but a living gift. Use it with purpose.Presence Is Royalty: Esther's reign flowed from Sarah's lived time; our own “reign” depends on how awake we are to our days.Humor and Holiness Coexist: Even Churchill and Rabbi Akiva knew that a good laugh can wake up the soul.#Kabbalah #chassidus #Judaism #Jewish #jewishmysticism #time #presence #purpose #life #chabad #spiritualgrowth #Spiritual #chassidut #kabala #sarah Sign up for "The Forgiveness Lab" HERE: https://www.jewishndg.com/civicrm/event/info?reset=1&id=89Support the showGot your own question for Rabbi Bernath?

On Armistice Day, we bring you an episode of Rosebud which opens at the Garden of Remembrance at Westminster Abbey, where Gyles meets veteran and double amputee turned skydiver Al Hodgson. We then take you to Salisbury, and an interview with Sir Nicholas Soames, himself a former soldier who later became a longstanding Conservative member of parliament, recorded live at Godolphin School in aid of the Edward Heath Charitable Foundation. Sir Nicholas talks to Gyles about his remarkable family: his grandfather was Sir Winston Churchill. We hear what Churchill was like as a grandfather and family man, about his unusual daily routine, and about his immense courage. We hear about Clementine Churchill, and about Sir Nicholas's parents - Christopher and Mary Soames, and their distinguished careers. This is a fascinating episode about a great family who were so central to the history of Britain in the twentieth century. Sir Edward Heath's former home in Salisbury Cathedral Close, Arundells, is open to the public and is well worth a visit. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Churchill's Spaniards: The Spanish Republicans Who Fought for Britain in WWII — with Sean F. Scullion In this episode, I speak with historian Sean F. Scullion, author of Churchill's Spaniards, about a remarkable and little-known story: the Spanish Republicans who escaped the fall of the Second Republic, endured internment under Vichy France, and later volunteered to fight in the British Army against fascism from 1940 to 1945. Drawing on multi-lingual archival work and over 110 family interviews, Scullion reconstructs the routes these veterans took—from the French Foreign Legion and North African labour camps to the Pioneer Corps, Commandos, SOE, and even the SAS—and explores why many kept fighting despite exile, wounds, and the bitter knowledge that Franco would survive the war.Scullion also discusses his research method (triangulating sources across British, French, and Spanish archives), the challenge of language barriers inside British units, the post-war lives of these men in Britain (including the Spanish Ex-Servicemen's Association and links with trade unions), and the complicated geopolitics surrounding Churchill's efforts to keep Spain out of the war.What we coverWho were “Churchill's Spaniards”? From Republican veterans to exiles who re-entered the fight under British command.Two waves of enlistment: 1940 (after service with French forces) and 1942–44 (after release from Vichy internment in North Africa).Across the theatres: Norway, North Africa, Italy, Greece, the Mediterranean, Western Europe— as far as Burma.Units and roles: From enlistment via the Pioneer Corps to transfers into infantry, Commandos, SOE, and the SAS (with c. 15 Spaniards serving in the SAS).Motivation and ideology: Anti-fascist commitment, complex politics (including anarchist backgrounds), and hopes—ultimately disappointed—that the Allies would remove Franco.After 1945: Settlement in Britain, union activism, campaigning against Franco's regime, and the memory-work of families today.About today's guestSean F. Scullion is a historian and serving British Army officer. A bilingual Spanish–English (and fluent French) researcher, he has spent nine years tracing this diaspora of Republican veterans and their wartime service under British command, combining multilingual archival research with a large and growing network of families across Britain, Spain, and France.Recommended readingSean F.

In this episode of the Anglotopia podcast, Jonathan Thomas takes listeners on a journey through significant locations in Britain associated with Sir Winston Churchill. The discussion begins with key sites in London, including the Houses of Parliament, Downing Street, and the Cabinet War Rooms, highlighting their importance in Churchill's life and career. The conversation then shifts to notable places outside of London, such as Blenheim Palace and Chartwell, which were pivotal in shaping Churchill's identity. The episode concludes with a look at international connections to Churchill's legacy, including museums and archives in the United States.

The Houses of Parliament served as a key location for Churchill's political career. Chartwell was not just a home but a source of inspiration for Churchill. Blenheim Palace is significant as Churchill's birthplace and family heritage site. The Cabinet War Rooms provide insight into Churchill's leadership during WWII. Churchill's speeches were often first delivered in the House of Commons. The Churchill Archives at Cambridge is a valuable resource for research. Churchill's legacy extends beyond the UK, with significant sites in the US. The Wallace Collection will host a major exhibition of Churchill's paintings in 2026. Visiting Churchill-related sites offers a deeper understanding of his impact on history. Sound Bites "If he had a single place of work that was most important to him, it would be the Houses of Parliament and the Palace of Westminster." "He genuinely had a great love and affection for the Houses of Parliament. He thought they were beautiful. He thought they were the heart of the empire. He thought that it was an immense privilege to work there." "Many people don't know that when you hear recordings of Churchill's speeches, most of those were actually recorded after the war." "He famously said that a day away from Chartwell is a day wasted." "To him, the manor house represented the England that he loved the most." "Chartwell is not a grand house. It's not like Blenheim Palace. Blenheim Palace is a palace. Chartwell is a family home." "He produced much of his literary output that he would eventually win the Nobel Prize for literature for." "I should do a whole podcast on Young Churchill because some of the stuff that he did is wild." "We're going to guide you through the places, why they're important to Churchill, and then give you some visiting tips in case you would like to visit." "It's where he wrote, it's where he painted, it's where he had his family life and raised his children in the later years."

Choses à Savoir HISTOIRE

Winston Churchill demeure l'un des visages les plus emblématiques du XXᵉ siècle. Premier ministre britannique pendant la Seconde Guerre mondiale, il incarne la résistance face à l'Allemagne nazie. Ses discours galvanisants, son courage et sa détermination ont fait de lui un symbole de liberté. Pourtant, derrière cette figure héroïque se cache un homme dont certaines positions politiques et morales suscitent aujourd'hui une profonde controverse.Car si Churchill fut le sauveur de la démocratie européenne, il fut aussi, selon de nombreux historiens, le produit et le défenseur d'un empire colonial profondément inégalitaire. En 1937, lors de la Commission Peel chargée d'examiner l'avenir de la Palestine mandataire, il déclara sans détour qu'il ne voyait « aucun tort » à ce que des peuples autochtones — les Aborigènes d'Australie ou les Amérindiens d'Amérique — aient été remplacés par une « race plus forte et de meilleure qualité ». Pour lui, la domination britannique n'était pas seulement légitime : elle relevait d'un ordre naturel des choses.Mais c'est en Inde, joyau de l'Empire, que ses choix politiques ont eu les conséquences les plus tragiques. En 1943, une famine d'une ampleur catastrophique frappe la province du Bengale. Environ trois millions de personnes meurent de faim. Les causes sont multiples — mauvaises récoltes, guerre, blocages des transports —, mais les archives montrent que Churchill refusa sciemment d'envoyer les cargaisons de blé disponibles dans les colonies voisines. Il justifia ce choix par des considérations racistes : selon lui, « les Indiens se reproduisent comme des lapins » et « étaient de toute façon mal nourris ».Pendant que des familles entières mouraient dans les rizières, le gouvernement britannique continuait d'exporter du riz indien pour nourrir ses troupes et ses alliés. Interpellé par ses ministres sur la gravité de la situation, Churchill répondit par des sarcasmes : il demanda pourquoi Gandhi n'était pas encore mort de faim.Aujourd'hui, ces propos ternissent l'image d'un héros longtemps présenté sans nuance. Pour beaucoup d'historiens, il faut reconnaître Churchill dans toute sa complexité : un stratège exceptionnel et un orateur de génie, mais aussi un homme pétri de préjugés raciaux et d'un colonialisme brutal.Ainsi, l'héritage de Churchill reste double. Il fut le défenseur du monde libre… mais pas de tous les peuples libres. Une gloire bâtie sur la victoire, et une ombre que l'Histoire, désormais, ne peut plus ignorer. Hébergé par Acast.

En staat stil bij het mirakel van democratisering, economische bloei en politieke impact in Europa.

Maar ook in de verrassende en opportunistische kanten van de wrede generaal en de onverwachte aspecten van zijn repressieve bewind.

Hij steunde een staatsgreep die mislukte en ertoe leidde dat hij als enige topmilitair overbleef om een burgeroorlog daarna uit te vechten. Die won hij in drie jaar dankzij steun van Benito Mussolini en Adolf Hitler en de funeste verdeeldheid van zijn opponenten. Als overwinnaar ging hij beestachtig tekeer. 'De Witte Terreur' vermoordde ruim 300.000 mensen en waarschijnlijk meer. Nog altijd worden massagraven gevonden en herleeft de angst, de wanhoop en het verdriet van die jaren. Franco's bewind was repressief en hij regeerde als een potentaat zonder grondwet, staatsstructuur of parlement - feitelijk bij decreet. Maar was hij een fascist pur sang? De historici debatteren daar nog steeds over. Van huis uit reactionair-katholiek was hij allesbehalve democraat. Evenmin was hij vies van complottheorieën over bolsjewieken, vrijmetselaars, joden en links die volgens hem het ware Spanje ondermijnden. De steun van Hitler en Mussolini tijdens de Burgeroorlog incasseerde hij moeiteloos, maar erg veel dankbaarheid hoefden zij niet te verwachten. Franco voerde een bewust ondoorzichtige politiek, waardoor hij iedereen op afstand hield. Churchill en Roosevelt knuffelden hem opportunistisch, Hitler wantrouwde hem diep. Na de oorlog verzette hij de bakens. Hij herstelde de monarchie zonder een koning op de troon te zetten, liet zich propagandistisch vieren als redder van vluchtelingen en joden en legde een grondwet op die zijn almacht bezegelde. Probleem was wel het dreigend bankroet en de schrijnende armoede. Economische hervormingen kostten tijd, maar na 1959 werd Spanje vele jaren groeikampioen van de wereld, samen met Japan. Repressie, massale emigratie - feitelijk 'export van menselijk kapitaal' - en economische bloei ondermijnden uiteindelijk het regime. Franco moest de teugels loslaten, ook vanwege ouderdomsziekten. Achter zijn rug werd een snelle transitie naar een eigentijds, Europees en democratisch bewind ontworpen. Zijn dood in 1975 viel samen met het eind van de dictatuur in Portugal en Griekenland en gaf een enorme impuls aan de democratisering van Zuid-Europa. Juan Carlos maakte daarbij als koning veel tempo. De technocraat Adolfo Suarez werd de Thorbecke van Spanje. De inzet en prestaties van deze eerste vrije premier maakten hem een icoon van democratie en vernieuwing. Zonder Juan Carlos en Suarez was de vreedzame transitie waarschijnlijk veel minder succesvol verlopen. *** Verder kijken Franco probeert Engels te spreken (1936) Franco dankt andere landen voor steun in de Spaanse burgeroorlog (1937) Het leven van Franco De laatste toespraak van Franco (1975) Jarcha - Libertad Sin Ira (1977) *** Verder luisteren 355 - 2023: modern en succesvol Spanje wordt EU-voorzitter en houdt verkiezingen 312 - Schurend verleden - over cancelculture, politiek en geschiedenis (en Spaanse pijn) 311 - De wereld volgens Simon Sebag Montefiore (over de wereldoorlog tussen Spanje en sultans) 414 – Portugal: 50 jaar Anjerrevolutie 158 - Portugal: aan zee is een land nooit klein 478 - Was Hitler een socialist? 314 - Prins Heinrich XIII en het verlangen naar een autoritair Duisland 451 - 75 jaar Duitse Democratie 242 - Adrianus van Utrecht, de Nederlandse Paus (en eerst regent van het Spaanse wereldrijk) 49 - De koningen van Hispanje die wij altijd hebben geëerd *** Tijdlijn 00:00:00 – Deel 1 00:28:39 – Deel 2 00:53:12 – Deel 3 01:34:10 – EindeSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Tucker Carlson's Controversial Interviews Ignite Firestorm in Conservative Circles

Tucker Carlson is at the center of intense national controversy after his recent high-profile interview with white nationalist Nick Fuentes. The interview, which aired on Carlson's independently run streaming show, has ignited a firestorm within conservative circles as well as broader political and media communities. Florida Republican Congressman Randy Fine became the most outspoken critic at the Republican Jewish Coalition's annual leadership conference, publicly labeling Carlson as “the most dangerous antisemite in America” and accusing him of promoting Holocaust denial, supporting those who “celebrate the Nazis,” and defending Hamas. During his remarks, Fine said he was canceling a scheduled Heritage Foundation event in protest and called on other Republicans to do the same, vowing to block Heritage staffers from his office and urging colleagues to follow suit.The Heritage Foundation's response has only deepened divisions. Its president, Kevin Roberts, released a video refusing to distance the influential think tank from Carlson. Roberts dismissed critics as a “venomous coalition” and insisted their efforts to cancel Carlson would fail, even though he and the foundation officially condemned Fuentes's antisemitic ideology. This stance drew significant backlash, including criticism from Heritage staff, Republican senators, and Jewish leaders in both parties. Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer called the Heritage statement “deeply disturbing,” and Mitch McConnell pointedly stated that “conservatives should feel no obligation to carry water for antisemites and apologists for America-hating autocrats.” Heritage has since reassigned its chief of staff in reaction to the controversy, signaling ongoing internal turmoil.This latest uproar follows a series of recent interviews where Carlson has platformed figures who espouse Holocaust denial and anti-Jewish conspiracy theories. Just weeks prior, Carlson's discussion with amateur historian Darryl Cooper provoked similar condemnation, after Cooper denied Nazi intent in the Holocaust and blamed Churchill for World War II atrocities, all with no pushback from Carlson. These editorial choices not only drew public rebuke from the White House and bipartisan groups of legislators but also stoked debates over rising antisemitism within the Republican Party and the broader conservative movement.In parallel to these controversies, Carlson's media ventures continue to attract attention. His new startup, Last Country, co-founded with Neil Patel, recently received a $15 million seed investment from Omeed Malik's 1789 Capital, according to the Wall Street Journal. Carlson is leveraging this funding to grow his audience through video content, mostly hosted on X (formerly Twitter), and has already produced episodes featuring major political figures including Donald Trump. Since departing Fox News, Carlson has focused on building a subscription-based media company and has regained significant popularity in the podcast space. By this summer, “The Tucker Carlson Show” was ranked the number one political podcast on Spotify.These developments have made Carlson a polarizing figure, amplifying debates over free speech, the mainstreaming of extremist rhetoric, and the responsibilities of leading media personalities. While Carlson retains a substantial following and influential allies in conservative media and think tanks, his critics warn of the dangers posed by granting a platform to extremist voices and normalizing language previously confined to the political fringes.Thanks for tuning in and don't forget to subscribe to the Tucker Carlson News Tracker podcast.

What can war teach us about how the human brain really works? And why is human decision-making a more significant factor than military strength in wars?Episode SummaryOn this episode, I'm exploring how the human brain truly manifests in conflict—and what that reveals about everyday decision-making. Dr Nicholas Wright, a neurologist-turned-neuroscientist who advises the Pentagon Joint Staff, joins me to discuss his new book Warhead: How the Brain Shapes War and War Shapes the Brain. In our conversation, Nick explains why fear is functional, how “will to fight” can outweigh superior force, and why democracies remain capable of catastrophic decisions. He also explains how perception operates as a controlled hallucination anchored to reality rather than a simple sensory feed, and why that distinction matters for strategy, leadership, and risk. Moving from fruit flies to front lines, Nick shows how simple neural chemicals regulate aggression, how the brain's grid cells create literal maps to navigate danger and opportunity, and how both biological and organisational models can mislead when mistaken for reality. The discussion ranges from 1940 France to Kyiv, from Stalingrad to Gaza, and from deception as a vice to deception as a civic virtue.Nick makes a compelling case for metacognition — the ability to think about one's own thinking— as the conductor of the brain's internal orchestra and argues that wisdom—not merely cleverness — must be deliberately designed into leaders and into the next generation of artificial intelligence.We end with practical insights: cultivating “better ignorance,” inviting real dissent in the spirit of Churchill, and creating deliberate spaces for reflection like (I'm delighted to report) long train journeys.Guest Biography Dr Nicholas Wright, MRCP, PhD, is a neuroscientist researching the intersections of the brain, technology, and security at University College London, Georgetown University, and the Center for Strategic & International Studies in Washington, DC. He also serves as an adviser to the Pentagon Joint Staff. Beyond academia, Wright leads projects connecting neuroscience, artificial intelligence, and strategy, and has advised the Pentagon Joint Staff for more than a decade.He consults on AI for SAP and edited Artificial Intelligence, China, Russia, and the Global Order (Air University Press, 2019).His latest book, Warhead: How the Brain Shapes War and War Shapes the Brain, is published by St. Martin's Press (US) and Pan Macmillan (UK).AI_Generated Time-stamped Summary[00:00:00] Introduction [00:01:00] Nick Wright's journey from neurologist to defense advisor, applying neuroscience to strategy and AI.[00:04:29] How evolution shaped the human brain for survival and combat — we're “built to win or survive a fight.”[00:05:59] Fear as a vital yet double-edged emotion; anxiety as a side effect of peace.[00:08:26] Origins of the book Warhead and cultural perceptions of its title.[00:09:39] Why war remains relevant; critique of overconfidence in peace and Pinker's “Better Angels” thesis.[00:12:01] Lessons from France's WWII defeat — cognition and morale outweigh material strength.[00:14:41] Ukraine's resistance as an example of will to fight; psychology as a decisive factor.[00:15:42] Creativity and emotion as essential tools in decision-making; the brain as an orchestra balancing logic and instinct.[00:18:10] What fruit flies reveal about aggression and shared neural circuitry with humans.[00:21:13] Structure of Warhead — using neuroscience to reinterpret history and warfare.[00:26:37] Mental models and how the brain simulates reality to guide choices.[00:30:37] Perception vs. reality — the brain generates, not records, the world we see.[00:35:31] The “uncanny valley” and prediction errors — why imperfect mimicry unsettles us.[00:36:17] Moral symmetry in conflict — both sides perceive their cause as just.[00:38:00] Deception and fog of war — manipulating human perception as a timeless weapon.[00:41:00] WWII story of René Carmille — lying as moral resistance.[00:43:59] Social media, attention, and the loss of reflection — the modern “disease of abundance.”[00:45:41] Wisdom versus cleverness — Churchill's reflective habits and valuing dissent.[00:48:11] “Better ignorance” and intellectual humility as foundations of wise leadership.[00:51:26] Cognitive diversity, AI, and the need to embed wisdom—not just intelligence—into machines.[00:58:28] From WWII to China today — the enduring need for wisdom in navigating global conflict.LinksNick's website - https://www.intelligentbiology.co.uk/WarHead Nick's book - https://www.intelligentbiology.co.uk/booksNick on LinkedIn -  https://www.linkedin.com/in/nicholas-d-wright-bba3a065/If you liked this episode, you might also like my discussion with Dr Mike Martin - https://www.humanriskpodcast.com/dr-mike-martin-on-war-politics/

The man voted Britain's greatest of all time started as a struggling, distracted student who felt "completely outclassed and left behind." Winston Churchill battled what he called "the Black Dog" his entire life, severe depression that brought crushing mood swings and dark periods. Yet this same man led England to victory in World War II and became an international hero. In this episode, we explore how Churchill's personal battles with his own "dark forces" gave him the deep understanding of human struggle that allowed him to inspire an entire nation. Discover why his famous words "never give in, never, never, never" weren't just political rhetoric, but hard-won wisdom from someone who learned to overcome his own overwhelming internal enemies first.

FIRST HOUR 9-915 Pennsylvania Aims to Be AI Capital with US-Made Non-Lithium Batteries. Salena Zito reports on Governor Shapiro's plan to establish Pennsylvania as the AI and data center capital, capitalizing on its energy resources and university system. She focuses on EOS, a Turtle Creek company making non-lithium batteries that are 97% US-made, countering reliance on Chinese lithium. AI data centers require high energy reliability, favoring coal and natural gas infrastructure. Governor Shapiro supports this buildout, including a $22 million grant for EOS. 915-930 Italian Olive Harvest and Historical Vatican-UK Royal Visit. Lorenzo Fiori reports that the olive harvest in Tuscany is expected to be low in quantity due to mosquito damage caused by humidity and rain. However, recent strong winds helped remove damaged olives, potentially ensuring a "very tasty" oil. Fiori also discusses the historical visit of King Charles III to the Vatican's Sistine Chapel to pray with Pope Francis. This event, which Fiori found spectacular, is seen as crucial for restoring dialogue between the Anglican and Catholic Churches after centuries of division. 930-945 Small Business Economy Steady; AI Remains a 'Toy'.

Additionally, copper theft from EV charging stations is undermining Los Angeles's zero emissions goals. Homeless encampments are also sparking major brush fire concerns in areas like Malibu and the Sepulveda Basin. 1015-1030 Pennsylvania Pursues Data Center Hub Status, Converting Golf Courses. Jim McTague reports on Pennsylvania's effort to become a data center hub, citing over $90 billion committed investment statewide. York County secured $5 billion, with plans including converting Brierwood Golf Course into a data center. This effort faces public resistance fueled by fears of higher electricity and water prices. McTague notes that consumer spending in Lancaster County is "steady." The conversion of golf courses reflects the decline of golf, seen as a "dinosaur" activity that takes too much time. 1030-1045 Professor Epstein Slams Trump's Economic Policies as 'State Socialism'. Professor Richard Epstein analyzes four Trump administration economic decisions concerning Intel, Nvidia, US Steel, and MP Mining, labeling them forms of state-owned enterprise or "state socialism." Epstein argues that acquiring golden shares or negotiating side deals—like Nvidia paying 15% of China revenue—destroys market value, undercuts competitors, and violates the neutral application of laws. He also critiques the Gaza deal, stating Hamas must be wiped out before any subsequent phases of the agreement can proceed. 1045-1100 Professor Epstein Slams Trump's Economic Policies as 'State Socialism'.

Can the West Hold Together? Lessons from WWII with Tim Bouverie and Michael Gove (Part Two)

‘There is only one thing worse than fighting with allies, and that is fighting without them.' – Winston Churchill In a world where geopolitical alliances are fraying and tensions are rising, what can the fragile coalition that defeated Hitler teach us about the challenges facing the West today? In September 2025 historian Tim Bouverie came to the Intelligence Squared stage to discuss his Sunday Times bestselling book Allies at War: The Politics of Defeating Hitler. In conversation with Editor of The Spectator Michael Gove, Bouverie described how Roosevelt, Churchill and Stalin overcame deep ideological differences and strategic rivalries to form a fragile but ultimately victorious alliance against Nazi Germany. Now, with Donald Trump threatening to abandon NATO, Vladimir Putin intent on exploiting Western fissures, and democratic nations questioning their own cohesion, the lessons of WWII's Grand Alliance have never felt more relevant. --- If you'd like to become a Member and get access to all our full ad free conversations, plus all of our Members-only content, just visit intelligencesquared.com/membership to find out more.

Professor Jackson takes a step back to review themes from episodes 187 through 189 (War in Europe and America's Response), specifically the slow turn from isolationism to aid via Lend-Lease, and eventually to preparing for war.  Prof. Jackson's guests are Professor Lindsey Cormack, an associate professor of political science at Stevens Institute of Technology, and historian Lynne Olson, author of several books on WW2 including Citizens of London which chronicles the pivotal role played by three Americans who influenced the decisions of President Franklin Roosevelt and Prime Minister Winston Churchill—Edward R. Murrow, Averell Harriman, and John Gilbert Winant. Olson emphasizes how these individuals navigated the complexities of diplomacy and public opinion, often against a backdrop of American isolationism and British skepticism, ultimately building a strong relationship that was essential for the war effort.  ____ Connect with us on ⁠HTDSpodcast.com⁠ and go deep into ⁠episode bibliographies⁠ and ⁠book recommendations⁠ join discussions in our ⁠Facebook community⁠ get news and discounts from ⁠The HTDS Gazette⁠  come ⁠see a live show⁠ get ⁠HTDS merch⁠ or become an ⁠HTDS premium⁠ member for bonus episodes and other perks.
