In this emergency news episode, I tear down the "Valdai Mirage." I look at the physics that make their claim impossible, the massive bureaucratic screw-up that exposed the lie, and the hilarious meltdown of the "Z-Bloggers" who are furious that their government can't even fake a battle correctly.Happy new year, Comrades. This one's free for patrons, I've pressed the "Charge for this post" enough times this month already.Please, if you can, donate to the Ukrainian army for the trucks that they need:https://car4ukraine.com/campaigns/christmas-tree-trucks-2025-the-eastern-borderSupport this show http://supporter.acast.com/theeasternborder.

In this special episode of Novel Spirits, the boys celebrate the holiday season with another great, humorous session of camaraderie:The votes were in for the Battle of the Genres, revealing our first, unanimous victor. And we reviewed 'The Last Christmas' by Gerry Duggan, a very Deadpool-ish take on a Zombie-filled Christmas - highlighting themes, characters, and artistic style, as always. The drinks were flowing, the boys were rolling, and all-in-all it was just a good time. We even scheduled our next few episodes for you!We also may have mentioned One Piece and AI at some point, but dive into those at your own discretion.

Jades jumps on post Valencia Marathon and a PB. She is currently honeymooning and skiing the slopes. Larin is getting going again towards the festive season, plotting his 2026 plans. We cover some listener questions. Exciting news - both will be back next year for a new series. More to come.

Mick Duplock is truly remarkable. A season ultra-runner and Comrades finisher, he developed retinitis pigmentosa (aka tunnel vision) in his fifties, leaving him unable to see. Did it stop him from running? Not likely. Instead, at 82, he says he's never been more passionate about it. 'There are lots of things that I can't do,' he says, 'but I can still run.'

Jade and Larin are back for the third episode of the extended series. Jade is 3 weeks out from Valencia Marathon and completed a solid marathon session just before recording.

Due to issues during the recording, the sound quality is somewhat lower than normal.In the recent memoir of Indian star author and activist Arundhati Roy, Mother Mary Comes to Me, we are given the raw and honest story of Roy's life and childhood with a many faceted mother who was far from easy to live with.Arundhati Roy's mother Mary took her two small children and left her alcoholic husband, brought her own family to court in order to abolish the discriminatory inheritance laws in her home state, and built a unique school that made her a beloved and almost mythical figure of her community and beyond. Towards Roy and her brother, however, she was volatile, sharp and cruel. Still, Roy insists that this forced her to see the world from different vantage point, turning her into the writer she is today.The memoir also depicts Roy's own path, leaving home for a world of film, literature and activism, towards a backdrop of India's growing Hindu nationalist movement, spearheaded by Modi. We witness Roy's incessant fights against this movement, on behalf of the environment, of local communities and minorities.As in Roy's earlier literature, Mother Mary Comes to Me shows us how the personal and political is intimately linked for all of us. Roy portrays her own path as well as those around her with both warmth and bite, in the precise, inventive, and deeply original language that has become one of her distinctive features.Arundhati Roy is the author of the Booker prize winning The God of Small Things, The Ministry of Utmost Happiness and a number of non-fiction books, including My Seditious Heart, Kashmir: The Case for Freedom og Walking with the Comrades.At the House of Literature, Roy was joined by poet and writer Athena Farrokhzad, for a conversation about her mother, her childhood, and becoming the writer and activist she is today.

NB. På grunn av noen problemer med lydopptaket er kvaliteten tidvis noe lavere enn vanlig.I den indiske stjerneforfatteren og aktivisten Arundhati Roys ferske bok, Min havn og min storm (til norsk ved Kirsti Vogt), får vi en ærlig fortelling om Roys liv og om oppveksten med en mangefasettert morsfigur som var alt annet enn lett å leve med.Arundhati Roys mor Mary forlot sin alkoholiserte ektemann med to små barn, gikk til sak mot egen familie for å oppheve delstatens kjønnsdiskriminerende arvelov, og bygget opp en unik skole som gjorde henne til et folkekjært og nærmest mytisk menneske. Mot Roy og broren var moren derimot omskiftelig, brå og hard. Samtidig mener Roy selv at dette tvang henne til å se verden fra flere ståsteder, og gjorde henne til den forfatteren hun er i dag.Den nye boka skildrer Roys egen vei, vekk fra hjemmet og inn i en verden preget av film, litteratur og aktivisme. Parallelt med denne reisen får vi også framveksten av Indias hindunasjonalistiske parti med Modi i spissen, en bevegelse og et regime Roy stadig tar kamper mot, på vegne av naturen, lokalsamfunn og minoriteter.Som i Roys tidligere litteratur, viser Min havn og min storm hvordan det personlige og politiske er tett sammenvevd for hver og en av oss. Roy skildrer sin egen livsvei så vel som de rundt seg med brodd og varme, i det presise, sinnrike og dypt originale språket som har blitt hennes fremste kjennetegn.Arundhati Roy er forfatteren av den Bookerpris-vinnende Guden for små ting, Ministeriet for den høyeste lykke, samt en rekke sakprosabøker, inkludert My Seditious Heart, Kashmir: The Case for Freedom og Walking with the Comrades.På Litteraturhuset møtte Arundhati Roy poet og kritiker Athena Farrokhzad til samtale om moren, oppveksten, og hvordan hun ble forfatteren og aktivisten hun er.

This In Memory reair marks the deeply sad occasion of the tragic death of legendary racer and running community leader in South Africa, Cheryl Winn. Winn passed on October 5.  This episode first aired on October 16, 2020. Cheryl Winn is the 1982 Comrades Marathon champion and was the Chairperson of this historic event 2017 to 2021. This episode tells her Comrades story, from her early days of running through to her experiences and reflections on this great race.  Cheryl has a decades-long and multifaceted relationship with the Comrades Marathon. In this episode, we touch on all of it. Cheryl was an elite runner in the late 1970s and early 1980s, winning many local events, and she became the Comrades champion in 1982.  During her running career and up until her passing, Cheryl was also involved with race production. At the time of this recording, she was the Chairperson of Comrades Marathon Association. She is the only chairperson to also be a former winner of the race.  Cheryl Winn is a trailblazer in both long-distance running and event leadership. This story of her enduring love of and accomplishments in the sport and this historic 90-km race perfectly capped off our season focusing on the mighty Comrades Marathon.  This episode is the last one in our first season, and the theme of this season is experiences in and around the Comrades Marathon, a 90-kilometre, or roughly 56-mile, road race that takes place each year in South Africa. It is the oldest and largest ultra-distance foot race in the world.  Ways to Connect and Engage with Women's Running Stories Instagram:⁠ ⁠⁠@womensrunningstories⁠ Twitter:⁠ ⁠⁠@WomenRunStories⁠ Website:⁠ ⁠⁠womensrunningstories.com⁠ Email host Cherie: clouiseturner@gmail.com Women's Running Stories is a member of the Evergreen network:⁠ ⁠⁠https://evergreenpodcasts.com/

Someone once wrote, “War is Hell”. Well, the same thing could be said for this latest run of my Apology Tour. We just watched a season 6 two-parter of M*A*S*H., a show that up until this point I had only seen the end credits of as a kid whenever I was waiting for something else to come on TV. It's not that the show is bad, mind you, I just can't shake the feeling that one of my co-hosts, a die hard M*A*S*H. fan, is giving me evil eyes whenever I don't laugh along with the audience laugh track. We'll see if I make it through this leg of the tour without getting beaten by my friends with the old “soap in a sock” routine. Anyway, I'm your host, Dave, and joining me on this tour of duty are fellow TV-philes and brothers/sisters in arms, Mike and special guest: Janna. Topics of discussion in this episode include as background on Klinger's whole deal and his (more than likely) eventual turn to madness; Dave's Hawkeye impression could use some serious work; and finally, we try to explain Alan Alda's animal magnetism. Be sure to rate, review and subscribe wherever you get your podcasts. You can also Like Us on Facebook, or shoot us an email at apocalypsevideopod@gmail.com  That'll do it for this episode, folks. Now, if you'll excuse me, I think I need to get the hell out of here. I think I see the rest of my unit in the shadows creeping over to my bunk…and they're carrying socks…

What claims could Jewish veterans make on the Nazi state by virtue of their having fought for Germany? How often did Germans treat Jewish veterans differently from Jewish men without military experience during the Weimar and Nazi periods? How did perceptions of masculinity and of Germanness intersect to shape attitudes and behaviors of Jewish veterans?   Michael Geheran's wonderful new book Comrades Betrayed: Jewish World War I Veterans under Hitler (Cornell UP, 2020) tries to understand how Jewish participation in World War I shaped their lives in 1920s, 1930s and 1940s. He uses a seemingly never-ending supply of diaries, letters, journals and other sources to paint a compelling picture of the ways in which German Jews understood their identities and influenced  their interactions with Germans and with the restrictions imposed by the Nazi Government. It raises new questions about how to periodize the Holocaust and how to think about the role of Germans--both civilian and military--in the persecution and elimination of German Jews.

Greetings, Comrades! This is a news episode - including vatnik tears. But, like I said in the Gonzo episode - war shall not be sanitized, and there is no point writing stuff that's not inspired. This one doesn't require any previous episodes or catching up, made to be shared and with an emotional kick. And I think I've found my style too. I hope you'll enjoy this new format.Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/theeasternborder. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

What claims could Jewish veterans make on the Nazi state by virtue of their having fought for Germany? How often did Germans treat Jewish veterans differently from Jewish men without military experience during the Weimar and Nazi periods? How did perceptions of masculinity and of Germanness intersect to shape attitudes and behaviors of Jewish veterans?   Michael Geheran's wonderful new book Comrades Betrayed: Jewish World War I Veterans under Hitler (Cornell UP, 2020) tries to understand how Jewish participation in World War I shaped their lives in 1920s, 1930s and 1940s. He uses a seemingly never-ending supply of diaries, letters, journals and other sources to paint a compelling picture of the ways in which German Jews understood their identities and influenced  their interactions with Germans and with the restrictions imposed by the Nazi Government.

AP correspondent Charles de Ledesma reports Cambodia has welcomed the return of two wounded soldiers captured by the Thai army, but tensions remain.

Rosemary Mitchell is a 62-year-old ultrarunner whose story with the Comrades Marathon is as powerful as the race itself. In this episode, I had the honor of sitting down with Rosemary for a heartfelt and inspiring conversation about endurance, tradition, and what it truly means to run with purpose.We explored her personal journey—how challenges and setbacks shaped her path—and what it took to conquer the emotional and physical demands of Comrades. Rosemary opened up about the meaning behind the Green Number, the incredible community that surrounds this race, and how running continues to transform her life at every age.We also talked about the legacy of Comrades in South Africa, the camaraderie of ultra running, and how age can become a source of strength, not limitation. Her wisdom is a reminder that running is as much about heart as it is about speed.

From That Small Island - Colm Mac Con Iomaire, Jaws at 50, Words for My Comrades: A Political History of Tupac Shakur

A deep dive into the upcoming "No Kings" protest in Spartanburg reveals what the host calls a deceptive grassroots image masking deeper ties to the Upstate South Carolina Democratic Socialists of America—and possibly beyond. With fiery rhetoric, the segment connects the event to a broader narrative of socialist infiltration, Democrat collaboration, and cartel-linked voter manipulation. From a controversial Instagram photo with Rep. Jim Clyburn to allegations of illegal immigrant-driven political schemes, the commentary builds to a national-level accusation: that recent cartel money laundering raids in L.A. struck the heart of a shadow operation funding Democrat campaigns. A hard-hitting exposé on political theater, media silence, and what the host warns could be the makings of a socialist dictatorship.

If you want to support, and learn, you can donate hereShow notesThis week on The Spotlight, we put big claims, bold performances, and comeback stories under the microscope.In Discourse Digest (00:00), we discuss why Beatrice Chebet's near-world record 5000m is not a miss, just a delay. Then we shift to the French Open, where Carlos Alcaraz outlasted Jannik Sinner in a classic. Gareth asks whether Sinner's loss might be exactly what tennis (and Sinner) needed, and how their rivalry and reputations will shape the sport's next era.Listener Lens (15:50) features a question from listener Simon, returning from an injury-enforced layoff. Ross offers guidance on regaining lost fitness, why retraining happens faster than we think (the 1:2 rule of thumb), and why doing less will eventually give you the right to do more.Center Stage (22:34) is all about carbs, fat, and fuel—sparked by a tweet from Prof Tim Noakes after the Comrades Marathon. Having watched the race, Noakes claimed that “not a single lead athlete tried to ingest 90–120g/hour of carbohydrates,” and that they “know they don't need carbs to win Comrades” because “fat can provide essentially all the required energy.” We put those claims under the Spotlight, and checked with the elites. Turns out, they were targeting exactly those carb intakes. We explore the science and discover a huge capacity to increase fat oxidation as a function of diet, training and exercise intensity. But that doesn't mean carbs don't matter - we dig into evidence that carbs improve performance, delay fatigue, and enhance recovery. The real problem? Extremes. Whether it's high carb or no carb, just because you can doesn't mean you should.And finally (53:44)—Padel and Pickleball are booming. Why are they so popular, and will they dethrone tennis as the world's favourite racket sport?LinksThe article Gareth discusses about Sinner's loss being a win for tennisExample of a study where retraining restores strength to pre-detraining levels in half the time taken to lose them (note this is a study on strength, but the principle remains)Our Podcast interview with Louise Burke, where she explains everything you need to know about fats and carbs, and why fat underperforms as a fuelThe Podlogar study discussed on the show, where we don't burn all the ingested carbohydratesBurke's race walker study, with fat oxidation rates three times higher after fat adaptation, but with reduced economy and impaired performance benefitsVolek's study on fat adapted distance runners, also showing huge fat oxidation capacity Hosted on Acast.

Featuring Quinn Slobodian on his book Hayek's Bastards: Race, Gold, IQ, and the Capitalism of the Far Right. MAGA and its far-right populist siblings around the world aren't just a backlash to neoliberalism. The far-right has also long been animated by extremist mutant neoliberal anarcho-capitalist and paleo-libertarian strains that in the 1980s and 90s built a new New Fusionist politics of capitalist extremism—a politics that promoted IQ as the measure of individual and racial value; hard borders for humans with free trade for capital; and gold as the only true currency.

Departing from conventional studies of border hostility in inter-Asian relations, Yin Qingfei explores how two revolutionary states - China and Vietnam - each pursued policies that echoed the other and collaborated in extending their authority to the borderlands from 1949 to 1975. Making use of central and local archival sources in both Chinese and Vietnamese, she reveals how the people living on the border responded to such unprecedentedly aggressive state building and especially how they appropriated the language of socialist brotherhood to negotiate with authorities. During the continuous Indochina wars, state expansion thus did not unfold on these postcolonial borderlands in a coherent or linear manner. Weaving together international, national, and transnational-local histories, State Building in Cold War Asia: Comrades and Competitors on the Sino-Vietnamese Border (Cambridge UP, 2024) presents a new approach to the highly volatile Sino-Vietnamese relations during the Cold War, centering on the two modernising revolutionary powers' competitive and collaborative state building on the borderlands and local responses to it.
