Historian David Yaghoubian joins Rev Left Radio to discuss the U.S.-Israeli war on Iran, the genocide in Gaza, the assault on Lebanon, and the broader imperial-Zionist project to dominate West Asia. Drawing from his 2014 monograph Ethnicity, Identity, and the Development of Nationalism in Iran, Yaghoubian explains why Washington and Tel Aviv have repeatedly misunderstood Iranian society, underestimated Iranian national cohesion, and fantasized that sanctions, bombing, covert operations, or minority pressure could fracture the country from within. Together, Breht and David explore Iran's history of resisting foreign domination, the reactionary nature of the Iranian diaspora in the United States, the ethno-religious complexity of Iranian society, Iranian national cohesion, the strategic significance of the Strait of Hormuz, the relationship between Gaza, Lebanon, and Iran, and the ideological inversion through which the U.S. and Israel present themselves as defenders of "stability" while unleashing coups, sanctions, assassinations, occupations, and genocide across the region. They also discuss how anti-imperialists should defend Iran against U.S.-Zionist aggression without flattening Iranian society or denying its internal contradictions. This is a conversation about nationalism, sovereignty, resistance, and the failure of empire to understand the peoples it seeks to dominate. Dr. David N. Yaghoubian is Professor of Modern West Asian and Islamic History at California State University-San Bernardino and author of "Ethnicity, Identity, and the Development of Nationalism in Iran" (Syracuse, 2014) and co-editor of "Struggle and Survival in the Modern Middle East" (3rd edition forthcoming). ----------------------------------------- Check out a great new resource for revolutionary education, Unlearning Capitalism: https://unlearn.capital/ Support Rev Left and get access to bonus episodes: www.patreon.com/revleftradio Make a one-time donation to Rev Left at BuyMeACoffee.com/revleftradio Follow, Subscribe, & Learn more about Rev Left Radio https://revleftradio.com/

What Worries Jeff If the Stars Stay Healthy The Detroit Lions enter 2026 with expectations and scars. Injuries haunted the last two seasons. That remains the existential dread. But on the Detroit Lions Podcast, Jeff set that aside for a day and asked a tougher NFL question. If the core plays most of the year, what could still go wrong? He laid out the premise. The starting secondary gets at least 12 games together. Aidan Hutchinson plays a full season. Jared Goff plays a full season. Amanra maybe misses one game. Penay maybe one. Gibbs is available most weeks. With that health, the worry shifts from luck to execution. Downfield Coverage Can Still Break Cornerback play tops the list. DJ Reed after the hamstring wasn't the same. Terrion Arnold improved, but there is room to climb. Roger McCreery arrives as a new piece. Keith Abney is a favorite pick, yet the NFL put him in the fifth round. Consensus boards loved the value. He still has to cover. Safety helps, if healthy. Kirby has a chip and something to prove. Branch comes back after Germany around Week 11 or Week 12. Chuck Clark brings veteran snaps, though there's concern he's past his prime. Thomas Harper played well last year. Monte Maddox is back. There are enough bodies to function. The issue is downfield coverage. That remains a real concern, even if the pass rush can hide some of it. Pass Rush and Front Must Gel Jeff likes the edge additions for Kelvin Shepherd's defense. DJ one of them was a smart, shrewd move. Derrick Moore should contribute. Hutch is Hutch. All-Pro. Depth and cohesion inside are the bigger questions. Aleem is a good player. Levi, if healthy, is a solid rotational piece. What does the rotation look like? Do they play without a nose tackle? The Romeo Cornell riff on the Bo Parcells front uses two three techniques and no nose. That can work with elite interior disruptors. The Lions still need to show they have that pairing. The front and linebackers must mesh as one six- or seven-man unit. There are many moving parts. Personnel and scheme both in flux. Some concern lingers that it won't click fast enough. The Interior Offensive Line Is in Flux The other major worry lives up front on offense. Cade Mays might not work. Tate Ratledge might not be that guy. Left guard is unsettled. Christian Mahogany was good early last year, then got hurt, and wasn't the same on return, similar to DJ Reed. Penay is moving to the left side. Depending on left guard, there could be four new starters across the line. Call it three and a half at minimum. Jeff is a big Blake Miller fan and doesn't worry about left tackle. But offensive lines win as a five-man unit. The Lions will face diverse fronts. Cohesion must arrive early for this Detroit Lions offense to meet the moment. #detroitlions #lions #detroitlionspodcast #peneisewell #cademays #kelvinsheppard #djwonnum #biggestfears #2026nflseason #jaredgoff #djreed #terrionarnold #injuries #detroitinjurystatus Learn more about your ad choices.

Zadkovich also discusses balancing business interests against having the right people on the books, challenges that firm leaders face in maintaining cohesion, ensuring everyone feels supported, the practical ways he looks to drive cohesion, what excites him about his firm's journey, and his guidance to other firm leaders about the importance of internal cohesion in driving forward a firm's objectives.

What if the biggest barrier to team performance isn't strategy, resources, or talent… but human behavior?In this episode of The Conscious Leadership Revolution, Susan Hobson sits down with Nigel Scott, creator of The People Puzzle Experience, to explore how conscious leadership is reshaping the way teams collaborate, solve problems, and perform under pressure.As organizations face rapid disruption in 2026—from AI transformation to constant change—leaders are discovering that technical skills alone are no longer enough. The real differentiator is conscious leadership: the ability to understand human behavior, regulate instinctive reactions, and create clarity and cohesion within teams.Nigel shares how The People Puzzle, an experiential leadership training exercise, reveals the hidden patterns that drive team dynamics. Through real-time observation of human behavior under pressure, leaders can see how instinct, bias, and lack of shared intention often waste up to 50% of a team's time and effort.This conversation explores how raising awareness of these behavioral patterns can transform the way leaders think, collaborate, and make decisions in high-stakes environments.In this episode, you'll discover:Why team cohesion is the foundation of high performanceThe difference between instinct and intuition in leadershipHow unconscious behavior patterns impact team effectivenessWhy clarity and shared intention unlock team flowHow AI may accelerate productivity but not replace human creativityWhy awareness is the first step to better leadership decisionsIf you're a leader navigating uncertainty, building high-performing teams, or adapting to the future of work, this conversation will challenge the way you think about leadership development.Because the future of leadership isn't just about strategy.It's about solving the human puzzle behind performance.
Remote and hybrid work are now permanent parts of the modern workplace. Technology allows teams to communicate instantly from anywhere in the world, but communication alone does not create cohesion. In this episode of Daily Influence, Brian Smith explores the leadership challenge many organizations face today: the digital illusion of connection. When teams rely heavily on messaging platforms, video calls, and digital collaboration tools, it can appear that everyone is aligned—while trust, clarity, and shared culture quietly weaken. Brian explains why culture is not created by proximity, but by behavior that is repeated visibly and consistently. Leaders who want to rebuild cohesion in dispersed teams must move beyond constant communication and instead establish structural habits that reinforce clarity, accountability, and shared direction. You will learn why successful distributed organizations focus on: • Creating structured clarity around goals and priorities • Establishing consistent rhythms that support accountability • Recognizing the growing importance of individual responsibility and influence in remote environments Because in the end, technology connects people—but discipline and behavior create culture.

In this episode of the Slappin' Glass Podcast, we sit down with master storyteller and communication expert Clare Murphy to explore the powerful role of storytelling, narrative, and communication in building culture within elite sports teams.Drawing on her work with organizations ranging from the Mission Critical Teams Institute to elite sports environments and NASA, Clare breaks down why stories—not information—are the most effective way leaders transmit belief, values, and identity to their teams.Together we dive into how coaches can use storytelling to build trust, strengthen cohesion, communicate under pressure, and shape the narrative of their teams. Clare also explores the neuroscience behind why stories stick in the brain, the difference between leadership and membership, and how rituals, shared narratives, and reflection practices can accelerate team belonging and performance.

Science of Spirituality PodcastFIVE PRIMARY POINTS of the PODCAST1. Why We Choke Under PressureChoking occurs when extreme stakes overload the brain's motor system. Research shows:* Large “jackpot” rewards (e.g., Olympic gold) can push neural activity past the optimal preparation zone.* Explicit monitoring (thinking step-by-step about an automated skill) disrupts fluid performance.* Moderate pressure improves performance, but excessive pressure impairs it.* Choking is often linked more to inadequate preparation than lack of talent.2. Three Science-Based Ways to Reduce Choking* Train under pressure (e.g., videotaped practice) to desensitize anxiety.* Shift attention outward if you're an expert (focus on rhythm, target, counting backward) to let automatic systems run.* Novices should instead focus on one simple cue, not the entire process.* Reframe the stakes — focus on process over outcome to prevent mental overload.3. Olympic Gold Medal Lessons: Team Chemistry & Inner WisdomTwo Olympic examples illustrate vitality principles:* U.S. Hockey Team: Built intentionally for chemistry and grit (“F-150 pickup trucks,” not Ferraris). Cohesion > raw star power.* Alysa Liu (Figure Skating): Won gold after burnout by reclaiming autonomy, joy, and intrinsic motivation. She ignored medal pressure and focused on artistry.Lesson:* Teams win through cohesion and resilience.* Individuals win when they align performance with authentic purpose and joy.4. The Vitality Zones & the 60-Day Vital SprintDr. Mishra introduces four zones:* Vitality Zone (energized, purposeful)* Surviving Zone (functional but unfulfilled)* Sliding Zone (declining habits)* Burnout Zone (exhausted, depleted)The 60-day sprint focuses on improving:* Physical vitality (exercise, sleep regularity, proprioception, inflammation control)* Mental vitality (focus training, limiting mind wandering)* Social vitality (cultivating closeness)* Spiritual vitality (serving something larger than oneself)5. Core Vitality Levers Backed by DataKey evidence-based takeaways:* 15–20 minutes of daily exercise reduces mortality and inflammation.* Sleep regularity may matter more than duration.* hsCRP (inflammation marker) may predict heart disease better than cholesterol.* Two to three cups of caffeinated coffee or tea daily are linked to lower dementia risk.* A wandering mind reduces happiness; focused attention increases well-being.* Purpose and closeness are modifiable assets strongly tied to longevity.* Spirituality (belief in something larger than self) supports mental health.Elite execution requires preparation, calibrated pressure, authentic motivation, and alignment across physical, mental, social, and spiritual domains.Dare to Be Vital.

The Goal Setting Framework For Work And Life That Keeps Us Moving Forward In 2026 In this reflective solo episode, Emylee shares the exact 3-pillar framework she uses to set goals at Pharos—and in her own life. Recorded during a quiet early-morning drive down the mountain after the annual leadership retreat, she reflects on the progress the team made in 2025, the lessons learned, and the clarity that comes from reviewing both the wins and the challenges.She introduces the three types of goals that guide every decision at Pharos: • Financial – supporting stability, reinvestment, and long-term health. • Community – delivering on the promise of results, connection, and service. • Cohesion – building systems and infrastructure that keep the team aligned and the experience consistent.Listeners will learn how to use this exact framework in their own lives by brainstorming everything they could do, then identifying the one to three “rocks” that will truly move the needle in the next 90 days. Emylee breaks down how to think in quarterly pushes, avoid overwhelm, and build a year that feels intentional—rather than rushed.Interested in working with us to get a plan of action for you? Join our 7-Day Results Accelerator kicking off each Monday in January 2026 for anyone craving momentum, clarity, and a roadmap they can actually stick to.
Rabbi Zalman Kastel is the founder of Together for Humanity, which works across all faiths and cultures to encourage religious harmony. He knew several of those murdered in the Bondi Beach Chanukah attack. Even amid the darkness of the anti-Semitic violence, and the despair of many fellow Jewish Australians, he says he's determined to keep up the challenging but necessary work of inter-religious dialogue.Peter Kurti, Anglican priest and senior fellow at the Centre for Independent Studies, has been charting the rise of anti-Semitic incidents in Australia since the October 7 attack on Israel by Hamas and the Israeli military response. He believes the federal government has been reluctant to tackle specific anti-Jewish prejudice.Andrew Jakubowicz, emeritus professor of sociology at the University of Technology, Sydney, agrees Australian multiculturalism is under strain after the Bondi massacre, but says it can survive if governments focus on curtailing violent behaviour rather than religious condemnation. GUESTS:Rabbi Zalman Kastel, head of Together for Humanity and leader in interfaith relationsPeter Kurti, Director of the Culture, Prosperity & Civil Society program at the Centre for Independent StudiesAndrew Jakubovicz is Emeritus Professor of Sociology at the University of Technology Sydney - his research areas include new media and social change, racism and ethnicity, public policy and marginalised minorities.

In this episode, I sit down with Luke to unpack why consumer brands are still struggling to turn AI hype into real value.We break down the big myths, including the widely shared idea that most AI projects fail and whether that was ever true for this industry.Luke shares insights from more than thirty brand interviews, revealing the same pattern everywhere. Leaders believe AI will reshape operations, but most don't know where to start, feel overwhelmed by the pace of change, and lack a practical playbook. Public case studies are thin because real experiments are happening quietly inside teams with no time to share them.We dig into the blockers too: vendor over-promising, fragmented tech stacks, unclear budgets, and rising pressure from shareholders to show progress.A straight, honest conversation about where brands really are and what it will take to make AI actually deliver.This podcast is brought to you by Glara.ai - the Generative Engine Optimization (GEO) platform helping ecommerce brands grow through AI search visibility.
Bad Bunny has been making major headlines this week as the global reggaeton superstar wraps up one of the most successful periods of his career. Just yesterday, the Puerto Rican artist completed his historic "No Me Quiero Ir De Aquí" residency at José Miguel Agrelot Coliseum in Puerto Rico, which has been recognized as the longest and most successful concert residency in Puerto Rico's history. Over 600,000 spectators attended the 31 shows across seven weekends, generating more than 250 million dollars for the local economy according to the New York Times. The residency featured an elaborate two-stage setup including a main stage designed to simulate a large island mountain and a secondary stage replicating a traditional jibaro homestead, all supported by cutting-edge Cohesion audio equipment featuring 128 speakers flown over eighty feet in the air.The momentum doesn't stop there. Bad Bunny, whose real name is Benito Antonio Martínez Ocasio, recently took center stage at the 2025 Latin Grammy Awards where he won Album of the Year for his sixth studio album "Debí Tirar Más Fotos." In his acceptance speech, the artist dedicated the award to the children and young people of Latin America, emphasizing the importance of cultural pride while pursuing ambitious dreams. He shared the powerful message that listeners should never forget where they come from but also remember where they're going, and highlighted how music serves as a vehicle for showing patriotism and defending one's homeland.Looking ahead, Bad Bunny is preparing to launch his "Debí Tirar Más Fotos World Tour" starting in the Dominican Republic before traveling to Central America, South America, Australia, Japan, and Europe. Perhaps most notably, the superstar will perform at Super Bowl LX's halftime show in Santa Clara, California, marking another major milestone in his already extraordinary career trajectory.Thank you for tuning in to this week's entertainment update.

SHOW 11-13-25 CBS EYE ON THE WORLD WITH JOHN BATCHELOR THE SHOW BEGINS IN THE DOUBTS ABOUT BUNDESTAG COHESION AND STABILITY. FIRST HOUR 9-915 1/2 Anatol Lieven discusses the war in Ukraine, noting the new Russian unit RubiKon hunting drone operators and the slow Russian advance on Pakovsk, aided by both innovation and old factors like fog. The conversation also covers Germany's military rearmament plans and the significant, rising influence of the populist right AFD party in German politics, which is strongly anti-immigrant and largely anti-rearmament. Guest: Anatol Lieven. 1/2 915-930 2/2 Anatol Lieven details UK Prime Minister Starmer's genuine political troubles concerning domestic policy drift and significant potential losses in upcoming regional elections. Starmer maintains prestige supporting Ukraine, though funding remains a question. A back channel to Moscow has been opened by Jonathan Powell to discuss peace, dropping the prior insistence on a ceasefire, indicating a shift in London. Guest: Anatol Lieven. 2/2 930-945 Chris Riegel, CEO of SCALA.com, states that Chinese claims of matching Nvidia's high-end chip success are largely propaganda, though China mandates domestic chip use. The US holds the AI "pole position." AI is a genuine profit driver, worth trillions to GDP, with material workforce impact expected by 2026. Guest: Chris Riegel 945-1000 Mary Anastasia O'grady reports on the assassination of Mayor Carlos Monzo in Michoacán, killed after leaving President Sheinbaum's Morena party and aggressively confronting cartels and their agricultural extortion. Sheinbaum has cooperated smartly with the US, allowing surveillance flights, and hired credible security chief García Haruch. The main challenge is whether Sheinbaum has the political will to confront the cartels, especially given the widespread belief in Morena's complicity. Guest: Mary Anastasia O'Grady. SECOND HOUR 10-1015 Cliff May discusses severe Christian persecution in Nigeria, which President Tinubu claims guarantees religious liberty. Attacks are carried out by Boko Haram, ISWAP, and powerful Fulani militias. May suggests jihadism acts as theological justification for Fulani nomadic herders to seize land from Christian farmers. The US could provide assistance, training, and advice to the Nigerian military to protect communities. Guest: Cliff May. 1015-1030 Sadanand Dhume examines the shift in US foreign policy, where President Trump now favors Pakistan and its military chief, General Munir. This followed intense combat between India and Pakistan after a horrific terrorist attack. When the US mediated a ceasefire, Trump took credit, which embarrassed Indian Prime Minister Modi. Pakistan cleverly thanked Trump and nominated him for a Nobel Peace Prize, securing his favor over India. India now needs a trade deal. Guest: Sadanand Dhume. 1030-1045 Professor Matthew Graham discusses the most powerful black hole flare ever recorded, which shone like 10 trillion suns from an Active Galactic Nucleus (AGN). Material falling into the supermassive black hole forms an accretion disc, releasing intense radiation. This 10-billion-year-old event was detected using computer cameras. Graham explains that these black holes are ancient "seeds" of galaxies, acting as cosmic vacuum cleaners, such as when a large star gets shredded. Guest: Professor Matthew Graham. 1/2 1045-1100 Professor Matthew Graham details his needs for future black hole research, prioritizing a network of space telescopes with large fields of view, like the Roman space telescope, for perpetual, multi-wavelength monitoring of the sky. This "audit of the cosmos" will improve detection speed and timing. Graham encourages students to pursue black hole work, noting it is a vibrant growth area, viewing black holes as the enduring future product of the universe. Guest: Professor Matthew Graham.2/2 THIRD HOUR 1100-1115 Veronique de Rugy discusses the cost of living, critiquing the administration's claims that Thanksgiving dinner is cheaper, citing the use of shrinkflation and item removal. She criticizes the proposal to send $2,000 checks, noting this Keynesian approach boosts demand, which, without increased supply, risks raising prices further. De Rugy advocates for deregulation and the elimination of tariffs (which she confirms are a tax) as the necessary supply-side solution to the affordability crisis. Guest: Veronique de Rugy. 1115-1130 Conrad Black assesses Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney's new budget as anti-climactic, failing to deliver promised growth or definitive decisions on controversial policies like pipelines. However, the budget was sensible and conciliatory, avoiding conflict with the opposition, Washington, and Alberta. Carney, adopting a diplomatic style akin to a central banker, did offer serious encouragements to alleviate the housing shortage. Guest: Conrad Black. 1130-1145 Scott Winship analyzes 50 years of US median earnings, preferring the MACPI to accurately adjust for cost of living. He finds that the middle class is better off: women's earnings are up 120%, and men's are up 40–50%. Winship disputes populist theories that income inequality or the China shock are the main villains, noting that the worst period for young men was 1973–1989, predating those factors. Guest: Scott Winship.1/2 1145-1200 Scott Winship investigates the mystery of the decline in young men's earnings between 1973 and 1989. He concludes this period was not caused by accelerated immigration or women entering the workforce, as men's earnings continued to rise. The actual explanation is the unique economic combination of stagflation—high unemployment and very high inflation—that occurred until the early 1980s recession. This severe economic dynamic has not been matched since 1989. Guest: Scott Winship. FOURTH HOUR 12-1215 The arrival of the US carrier Gerald Ford signals an escalating commitment to possible military solutions against Maduro's regime in Venezuela. Maduro has ordered a Cuban-style guerrilla defense, but analysts worry more about "anarchization"—wreaking havoc—if he falls. Removing Maduro and lifting sanctions could lead to necessary refinancing of Venezuela's $170 billion debt. Guest: Evan Ellis. 1/4 1215-1230 Peru faces severe political instability, evidenced by six presidents in two years and detentions for corruption. Transitional leader José Heresi is tackling rising organized crime, including a 36% jump in homicides, through a state of emergency. Meanwhile, China maintains deep-seated influence, controlling key sectors like mining, oil, and the deep-water port of Chancay. Guest: Evan Ellis.2/4 1230-1245 Honduras is holding a high-stakes, single-round election where the outcome could determine if the country returns to alignment with Taiwan or shifts to China. Election observers noted improper pressure and concerns about meddling by the ruling Libre Party. Separately, Argentina's economy under Milei is strengthening, backed by a significant US currency swap and political support. Guest: Evan Ellis. 3/4 1245-100 AM COP 30 is largely "political theater" with commitments insufficient to address climate change. Estimates suggest the crucial 1.5-degree global temperature increase will be reached by 2030. While there is increased international attention, funding remains inadequate; Brazil secured only $5.5 billion toward its $125 billion forest preservation goal. The plight of Amazonian indigenous peoples continues unaddressed. Guest: Evan Ellis.4/4 |
Ben Goessling, Andrew Krammer and Emily Leiker preview Sunday's game between the Vikings (4-5) and Bears (6-3), who have won six of their last seven games. Will the offense find cohesion with J.J. McCarthy at U.S. Bank Stadium? How do they match up against the Bears defense? When will center Ryan Kelly return? The Vikings defense appears to have found a groove after a rough five-day stretch in October. Are they going to get the upper hand again on Caleb Williams?
In the third hour of the show, Tobin & Leroy are ecstatic over the Miami Heat's 140-138 win over the Cleveland Cavaliers in overtime at Kaseya Center. With the 2 all Stars out in Tyler Herro and Bam Adebayo the team is still continuing to play well. Tyler Herro's contract wasn't extended before the season and Norman Powell who will be a free agent after the season Who Will the Heart extend? Are we about to enter another Jimmy Butler contract situation with Tyler? The Dolphins headed to Spain today as they face the Washington Commanders in Spain on Sunday. Cant eh Fins continue their good vives and get a second consecutive win. Lastly, we take a peek in the Mix Bag where we hear sound from key figures in the world of sports from Monday night.
On this episode, I'm joined again by Luke Hodgson to talk about a shift that's quietly taking place inside every brand: the move from customer experience to operator experience.We unpack what Luke calls OX2030; his framework for how AI is reshaping the way brands actually run. The idea is simple but big. Over the next decade, the biggest transformation in retail won't happen on the front end. It will happen behind the scenes, in the systems, workflows and cross-functional teams that keep everything moving.We talk about how AI is flattening hierarchies, what it means for how brands are organised, and why most of the value in automation will come from fixing the low-value work that slows good people down. We also get into how this connects to Factory's Internal and External AI framing, where the real opportunities live, and what it means for leadership and culture inside consumer brands.If you're thinking about how AI changes the structure, not just the strategy, of how your business operates, this one's for you.Enjoy the episode.Checkout Factory here.Sign up to our newsletter here.
In this pod, MJ shares a life update, Ethan recaps two menswear events (Freenote Cloth & Buck Mason) and why he likes tucking his tie, and Spencer talks about photography again. Oh, and we all have a big discussion about how fisherman sandals are a bit odd with jeans, why we like congruous outfits, and how hodgepodge outfits are anti-core (and probably a trend). It's a jam-packed episode full of great discussion!
