During the height of Roy Cohn's friendship with Donald Trump, according to the historian Kai Bird, “they were on the phone with each other a dozen times a day.” Bird's new book, “American Scoundrel,” details Cohn's profound influence on Trump—whom he met as a young real-estate heir in the nineteen-seventies—and how Cohn is “haunting” politics in our time. “I had written about Roy Cohn in [previous biographies] as this nefarious, minor, awful figure who was disruptive and divisive and unethical. And I suddenly realized that the establishment that I'd been writing about for forty years is gone. Their values and culture, the politics, the bipartisanship . . . that's all gone,” he tells David Remnick. “Roy Cohn explains something about the dark side of America that I just didn't understand.” They discuss Cohn's early career as a prosecutor and his role as the “mastermind” of the McCarthy purges; his service as a lawyer and fixer for Mafia members, politicians, and celebrities; and an allegation of being involved in sex trafficking.

What if that moldy AirBnB wasn't the true cause of your illness, even after you found mycotoxins in your lab work? What if there was a deeper emotion behind it? In this episode, Dr. Chris Motley sits down with Dr. Howard Cohn to talk about emotional root causes, stacking protocols to truly get well and the tool that gives his patients six months of therapy in under a minute. Learn more at https://biostacking.com/, where you can sign up to learn all the protocols and transformative health education discussed in this episode. Dr. Howard Cohn has been in practice for over 35 years, trained thousands of doctors, and built health companies that reached 14 countries. But the insight that changed everything in his practice wasn't exotic — it was the realization that most patients weren't failing because they lacked the right answer. They were failing because nobody had given them the right combination, in the right order, at the right time. In this episode you will learn: What Bio Stacking actually means — and why it's fundamentally different from biohacking, which gives you one tool when you need a whole toolkit Why the right treatment done at the wrong time is the wrong treatment — and how Dr. Cohn's wellness scoring system (1–100) determines exactly where to start The "combination to a safe" analogy: why knowing all the right answers (mold detox, binders, acupuncture, red light, ozone) still won't work if you dial them in the wrong sequence. The concept of psychogenetics — how unprocessed emotional events in parents and grandparents can tag the genes and pass down to children as physiological responses, not just behavioural ones Why most "root cause" doctors are actually somewhere along the stem — and what it really means to keep asking "why" until you reach the constitutional root Why alkalinity is Dr. Cohn's fifth vital sign - and how oxygen from greens like wheatgrass fight inflammation and infections. How Dr. Cohn created a nutritional line for his patients to fill nutritional gaps due to depleted nutrients in our soil degrading our food. How the Cohn vision of health isn't necessarily about being symptom-free. It's about having the tools to live with ease amidst all the modern-day environmental stressors we encounter like toxins and EMFs. In Dr. Cohn's way of thinking, “if you don't have a filter, you are the filter.” Mold symptoms may have as much to do with emotional chaos in your life as mold. Dr. Cohn advocates the use of NET, which he describes as a fusion of Chinese Medicine and pavlovian conditioning, and explains why it can provide six months of therapy in a minute.

What can your body tell you about a movie? According to legendary Columbia Pictures chief Harry Cohn, everything.This week's Movie Racket explores Cohn's infamous rule for separating hits from flops. Joining Michael Phillips is Slate film critic Dana Stevens (Camera Man), who helps unpack what that deceptively simple dictum reveals about audiences, critics, attention spans, and streaming culture. Along the way, they cover The Odyssey, Jeanne Dielman, Citizen Kane, and whether laughter, tears, gasps, or simple restlessness can ever be trusted as measures of a film's success.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

We are so very pleased to have had a most informative and enlightening conversation with Lori Cohn of The Beagle Alliance. Their work is to educate people regarding animal testing and work in a non-adversarial manner with research facilities to help get animals released after the research is done, rather than euthanized. Some of the topics covered: “Yes, lab dogs can make wonderful pets when released and often adapt quickly”; “other ways”—there are newer and often more effective ways than animal testing; “new educational resources”—A film called “The Gold Standard” will likely be streaming by this fall and it explores the topic of animal research—a podcast called Dogs Beyond the Lab and the book “Lab Dog” by Brad Bolman. Each of these provides scientific information from the experts and will help bring more awareness to the animal research issue.

Dans cet épisode de "Comment j'ai réussi?", Stéphane Pedrazzi reçoit Olivier Cohn, directeur général de Best Western en France. Il revient sur le choix historique de la chaîne hôtelière de se structurer en coopérative. Contrairement à la majorité des grands groupes hôteliers, Best Western a fait le pari de donner une voix à ses hôteliers dans les décisions stratégiques, une organisation qui présente des avantages tant pour les propriétaires que pour les clients.L'invité explique comment cette structure coopérative, bien que pouvant parfois ralentir les prises de décision, permet une mise en œuvre plus rapide des orientations choisies, les hôteliers étant pleinement convaincus et impliqués. Il souligne également que cette organisation à but non lucratif permet de répercuter les bénéfices directement sur les services offerts aux hôteliers, et ainsi de proposer des commissions plus avantageuses que dans d'autres groupes.Au-delà de cette gouvernance originale, Olivier Cohn revient sur la résilience du secteur hôtelier français face aux récentes crises géopolitiques, avec une croissance de près de 2,5% au premier semestre 2026 malgré les tensions au Moyen-Orient. Cependant, il s'interroge sur les possibles impacts à venir de la reprise des conflits sur la consommation touristique, notamment avec la hausse des prix du carburant.Enfin, il en France partage les défis liés au développement du réseau, entre la recherche de nouveaux emplacements dans les villes et la nécessité d'accompagner les investissements de rénovation de ses hôtels.

Frank Longobardi started a five-person CPA firm in Hartford, Connecticut on November 1st, 1984, with a first-year revenue goal of $300,000. For the next 23 consecutive years, the firm grew both top and bottom line, every single year. By the time he and his partner decided to merge up, they had built a $14.5 million firm with over 100 people and ten partners.In this conversation, Frank walks through every phase of that journey with the kind of candor that only comes from having lived it. He talks about the early days of working 3,000-plus hours a year, the moment he realized hating to lose a $400 tax return was holding his firm back, and why he told every partner the same thing: it is not your client, it is the firm's client. He also shares his perspective on the partnership model at scale, why private equity entered accounting, and what the profession's talent structure will look like as AI reshapes the work.The conversation covers:How a five-person startup grew for 23 consecutive years without a single down yearWhy hating to lose any client, even a $400 return, was the biggest early mistakeHow to transfer client relationships to the next generation of partners without losing the clientWhy he told every partner "it is not your account, it is the firm's account" and what shifted when they embraced thatHow the CohnReznick mega merger came together and what it took to lead a $430 million combined firmWhy the traditional pyramid staffing model is evolving into a diamond shape as AI changes the workHow private equity entered accounting and what PE firms are actually looking for in acquisitionsFrank's career is a rare example of someone who has seen the profession from every angle: sole proprietor, regional firm leader, mega merger architect, top 25 CEO, and now PE advisor. His perspective on what it takes to build something worth buying, merging, or leading is grounded in 40 years of doing exactly that.This episode is for firm owners curious about what the path from small firm to large firm leadership actually looks like, leaders wondering how to transfer client relationships without losing them, practitioners thinking about whether merging up makes sense for their next chapter, and anyone interested in how private equity is evaluating and reshaping accounting firms from the inside.TIMESTAMPS00:00 - Brannon Poe intro and podcast welcome 00:13 - Introducing Frank Longobardi, former CEO of CohnReznick 00:56 - Why Frank chose accounting: a blue-collar family, a high school course, and the University of Connecticut 01:55 - Frank's career path: regional firm, Big Eight, and starting his own firm in 1984 02:42 - The first business plan: $300K goal, five people, $40K salary each 03:02 - 23 consecutive years of top and bottom line growth at Longobardi and Company 03:27 - Merging into J.H.

Have you heard of 'Tail-Gunner Joe' McCarthy and the Red Scare? What about Roy Cohn? These two not only kicked off the Red Scare where they pursued supposed communists in Government and later the military, but also went aafter gays under the theory that they were 'moral perverts susceptible to blackmail.'. Despite no evidence appearing that even one of these people were blackmailed outside the movie Clue (which is complete fiction), thousands of employees were fired between 1953 and the 90's when gay employees were forced out of government positions or fotced to live lives undercover simply because of who they loved. We cover the history of the lavender scare, people who were targeted because of it, a similar case in England where Alan Turing, the father of Artificial Intelligence was convicted of gross perversion for his relationship with another man and was chemically castrated which led to the unraveling of his brilliant mind. All this and more in this, this is why we celebrate PRIDE because we need to remind ourselves just how bad it's been for the LGBTQ during our lifetimes episode of the Family Plot Podcast.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/family-plot--4670465/support.

When the Pentagon formally designated Anthropic a “supply chain risk” this March, the dispute put a spotlight on civil liberties concerns in the AI-era. Anthropic had reportedly hit an impasse with the Trump administration over the company's push for guardrails banning the use of its Claude model to conduct mass surveillance. Anthropic's CEO had called such surveillance a “red line” it would not cross. But where exactly should those lines be drawn, and who should draw them? Few people have spent more time thinking about those issues than Cindy Cohn, executive director of the San Francisco-based civil liberties group Electronic Frontier Foundation. Throughout her career, EFF's executive director has been driven by a fundamental question: Can we still have private conversations if we live our lives online? Her new book, Privacy's Defender: My Thirty-Year Fight Against Digital Surveillance, chronicles her battles to protect our right to digital privacy. Cohn weaves her own personal story with the history of the Crypto Wars, FBI gag orders, and the post-9/11 surveillance state. She describes how she became a seasoned leader in the early digital rights movement, as well as how this work serendipitously helped her discover her birth parents and find her life partner. Along the way, she also details the development of the Electronic Frontier Foundation, which she grew from a ragtag group of lawyers and hackers into “one of the most powerful digital rights organizations in the world.” Cohn will be joined by Adam Savage, former co-host of the Discovery Channel show “Mythbusters,” to talk about the issues raised in her book, EFF's work, and the emerging battle over AI surveillance.
