Podcasts about crises

In this episode of What's New with ME, Ali Mehdaoui breaks down the most impactful events of the last 48 hours — without political bias, without media spin, and without manufactured outrage.We examine a fatal federal enforcement incident in Minneapolis that has sparked national concern over transparency, accountability, and public trust. As new video evidence surfaces and official narratives shift, this episode explores what happens when institutions struggle to maintain credibility in the digital age.Beyond the U.S., we zoom out to cover severe weather disruptions impacting daily life abroad, ongoing international humanitarian and security challenges, and why global instability continues to affect everyday people — regardless of geography.We also dive into new health research revealing increased heart-attack risks appearing earlier than expected, raising important questions about stress, prevention, and modern lifestyles.This episode isn't about sides — it's about systems, context, and consequences.If you're looking for clear explanations, grounded analysis, and news that respects your intelligence, this is the conversation you've been missing.

Jon Hartley and Andrew Ross Sorkin discuss Andrew's career as a journalist, Andrew's recent book 1929 and how the events between the 1929 Wall Street crash and 1933 reshaped banking and financial regulation, comparisons with the 2008 global financial crisis (chronicled in Andrew's first book Too Big To Fail), and the policy lessons that have been learned from both events. Recorded on January 9, 2026. ABOUT THE SERIES Each episode of Capitalism and Freedom in the 21st Century, a video podcast series and the official podcast of the Hoover Economic Policy Working Group, focuses on getting into the weeds of economics, finance, and public policy on important current topics through one-on-one interviews. Host Jon Hartley asks guests about their main ideas and contributions to academic research and policy. The podcast is titled after Milton Friedman‘s famous 1962 bestselling book Capitalism and Freedom, which after 60 years, remains prescient from its focus on various topics which are now at the forefront of economic debates, such as monetary policy and inflation, fiscal policy, occupational licensing, education vouchers, income share agreements, the distribution of income, and negative income taxes, among many other topics.

William J. Federer is a nationally known speaker, historian, author, and president of Amerisearch, Inc. He's the speaker on The American Minute daily broadcast. He's authored numerous books including, America's God and Country Encyclopedia of Quotations, Who is the King in America? Socialism: The Real History From Plato to the Present and How the Deep State Capitalizes on Crises to Consolidate Control. If you've been following the news you've seen the riots, the vandalism and the overall, insurrection-type atmosphere that's taken shape in Minneapolis, Minnesota. This is in response to Operation Metro Surge, where Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officials have been focusing on the apprehension of those who've entered the U.S. illegally, while also committing further criminal acts. The shooting of a protester this past weekend is under investigation. At the same time, the "temperature" of the situation might be changing for the better as President Trump indicated he had a very good call with Governor Walz; that the governor called him with a request to work together with respect to Minnesota. However, let's not forget what happened on Sunday, January 18th, when Cities Church in St. Paul had its worship service interrupted by protesters who brought the service to a halt. What ensued were shouts, screams and intimidation brought to the pastor, the congregation and the children. Don't miss this edition of Crosstalk as William walks listeners through history as he explains the individuals and philosophies that identify with this tactic of invading churches, and therefore where the incident in St. Paul may be taking us, and why.

Crises don't just knock out power—they unravel the safeguards that keep predators at bay. We dig into how traffickers exploit natural disasters, pandemics, and even major events by stepping into system failures with promises of food, shelter, and work that morph into coercion and control. From labor trafficking in post-hurricane rebuilds to targeted online recruitment of displaced single mothers, we connect the dots between vulnerability, policy loopholes, and criminal opportunity.Our guest, Benjamin Greer, a trafficking subject-matter expert who trains law enforcement and advises a state threat assessment center, breaks down real-world case studies and the modalities behind them: forced labor disguised as reconstruction, illicit adoption pipelines after the Haiti earthquake, and the way suspended wage protections can trigger a “gold rush” of poorly monitored contracts. We talk frankly about data gaps around big sporting events, why preparedness still matters, and how to turn these high-attention moments into training, service mapping, and smarter plans.We also shift to a public health lens. Pandemic closures revealed new disruption tools—like utility shutoffs and health code enforcement—that pushed illicit businesses out of the shadows. Then we widen the circle: code enforcement, utility workers, delivery drivers, rideshare drivers, shelter intake teams, and building inspectors can all be first identifiers with the right signals and anonymous reporting paths. In court, we unpack why expert witnesses on trauma and coercive control help juries make sense of texts, timelines, and victim behavior that seem contradictory but align with science.Finally, we go after the motive: money. Stronger fines, meaningful restitution, and modern asset forfeiture that targets the instrumentalities of coercion—homes, vehicles, farms, business premises—can make exploitation a losing proposition. Pair that with multidisciplinary task forces, shared intel platforms, and survivor-centered services, and communities can close the space traffickers rely on.

Pastor Alvaro Cruz, a partir da história de Zeleque, um dos valentes de Davi, nos ensina como somos confrontados com o valor da fidelidade quando as circunstâncias são adversas, quando a pressão é grande e quando poucos permanecem de pé. Essa mensagem nos lembra que Deus honra aqueles que não abandonam sua posição, mesmo em meio às crises.Uma palavra encorajadora para quem enfrenta desafios, lutas internas ou momentos de instabilidade, mas deseja continuar fiel ao chamado e aos princípios do Reino.

The world is encountering multiple crises - climate, droughts, floods, energy, food, and pandemics, to name a few. Capitalism and Crises: How to Fix Them (Oxford UP, 2024) is about how capitalism can help fix them It has helped to cause because of a misconception about the nature of the system. There has been a failure to understand the key institution business. This book describes why this has happened and what needs to change to address it. At the core of the problem is the key driver of capitalism profit and the way in which those who run the system and provide it resources for it have been rewarded. Currently, profit comes from causing as well as solving problems. Drawing on history, philosophy, psychology, and biology as well economics, law, and finance, Mayer describes what has gone wrong and what needs to change. He sets out the big challenges that capitalism must address and discusses how financial institutions should be at the heart of this, and how the public sector can work with the private on a common purpose of creating shared prosperity. Capitalism and Crises is an inspiring and motivational roadmap. Learn more about your ad choices.

What if much of today's terrain theory conversation is missing its own scientific foundation?In this episode of the Terrain Theory Podcast, we're joined by Lauren Farris – co-founder of the Terrain Model Refutes Germ Theory community and founder of The Raw Key – for a deep dive into what she argues has been largely overlooked: 150 years of natural hygiene science that followed Béchamp and predates modern medicine entirely.Lauren shares her personal journey from chronic illness – including IBS, migraines, anxiety, fatigue, and a breast mass – to profound healing through natural hygiene principles, a fruit-centered raw diet, and allowing the body to complete its own elimination processes without intervention. Central to this conversation is the concept of the healing crisis – why symptoms like fever, mucus, rashes, and exhaustion may not be signs of failure or infection, but evidence of the body finally doing what it was designed to do.We explore why Lauren believes humans are biologically frugivores, not omnivores or carnivores, examining jaw structure, digestion, protein metabolism, and the difference between nutrient density and assimilation. She explains why the body doesn't “use” dietary protein but builds its own from amino acids, why meat putrefaction matters, and why elimination, not supplementation or suppression, is at the core of real healing.The conversation also challenges popular ideas around detox, herbs, superfoods, fasting, salt, hydration, and food-as-medicine, while grounding everything in observable biological law rather than belief or trend.This episode is not about comfort or compromise. It's about revisiting forgotten science, questioning assumptions – even within the terrain community – and asking what happens when we stop interfering with the body's intelligence and finally let it heal.Learn more about Lauren and her work at https://www.therawkey.com/ and at https://www.facebook.com/groups/germtheory.vs.terraintheory.Support Terrain Theory on Patreon!

“You've changed” isn't necessarily something you want to hear … especially when you're trying to keep a marriage alive. That's the premise of Ian Williams' new novel, You've Changed. The book follows a couple named Beckett and Princess who are dealing with their mid-life crises in some questionable ways. While Princess turns to plastic surgery, Beckett throws himself into his work and explores a surprising relationship with a man named Gluten. Yes, Gluten. As the couple change in opposite directions, their marriage starts to crumble around them. This week, Ian joins Mattea to talk about doing construction work as research, naming a character after a protein and how he feels about mid-life. Liked this conversation?

What if "thriving" isn't a soft concept—but a measurable performance advantage? In this episode, Peter Winick sits down with Jon Rosemberg, Founding Partner of Anther and author of "A Guide to Thriving: The Science Behind Breaking Old Patterns, Reclaiming Your Agency, and Finding Meaning", to break down what thriving really is, what it is not, and why leaders should care right now. Jon draws a sharp line between thriving and "success." Success can be the big house, the title, the milestones. Thriving is different. It's a state where you're calm, connected to others, and able to create. It's when you can access the best of your thinking and show up as yourself—not as a reactive version of yourself. They explore the practical business implications. Jon frames thriving as the condition that makes proactive leadership possible. Less reactivity. More intentionality. Better decisions. He also positions "flow" as a subset of thriving—useful, but not the whole story. Then the conversation gets strategic. Jon introduces agency as the lever that moves people from survival mode to thriving: the capacity to make intentional choices. And he connects it directly to strategy. Real strategy is not doing everything. It's making clear choices—and just as importantly, choosing what you will not do. For leaders building teams, Jon highlights the shift from productive value to relational value. Your job stops being "do the work." Your job becomes "enable others to do their best work." When teams are thriving, performance rises. When organizations treat well-being as a KPI, it becomes a competitive advantage—not a perk. Finally, Jon reframes thriving as a spiral, not a finish line. Markets change. Crises hit. AI reshapes work. The goal isn't to "arrive" at thriving. The goal is to build the capacity to return to it faster—and lead through uncertainty with more clarity, nuance, and adaptability. Three Key Takeaways: • Thriving has a precise definition. It's not "success" or status; it's being calm, connected, and creative—able to access better thinking and show up authentically. • Agency is the lever. Moving from survival mode to thriving starts with the capacity to make intentional choices—and that maps directly to strategy in business. • Thriving changes performance at the team level. Leaders shift from their own productivity to relational value—enabling others to do their best work—which increases team performance. If Jon's episode got you focused on thriving through agency, go next to Episode 156 with Linda Henman for the "now what?" Linda is all about making tough, high-stakes decisions—fast and well—so you can turn intentional choice into real strategy. Together, they pair thriving as the mindset with decision-making as the skill that makes it real.

In Seven Crashes: The Economic Crises That Shaped Globalization (Yale UP, 2023), distinguished economic historian Harold James offers a fresh perspective on the past two centuries of globalization and the pivotal moments that shaped it. James analyzes seven major economic crises that occurred over this period, including the late 1840s, the simultaneous stock market shocks of 1873, the First World War years, the Great Depression era, the 1970s, the Global Financial Crisis of 2007-2008, and most recently the Covid-19 crisis. Through his insightful analysis, he illustrates how some of these crises contributed to increased cross-border integration of labor, goods, and capital markets, while others resulted in significant deglobalization. James classifies the crises into two categories: those caused by shortages and those driven by demand. He explains how shortages have led to greater globalization as markets expanded and producers innovated to increase supply, as evidenced by events such as the First World War and the oil shocks of the 1970s. In contrast, demand-driven crises, such as those that caused the Great Depression and the Global Financial Crisis of 2007-2008, have typically led to international trade contraction and decreased globalization, often accompanied by widespread skepticism of governments. To support his findings, James examines the writings of key observers who shaped our understanding of each crisis, including Karl Marx in 1848, Stanley Jevons, Léon Walras, and Carl Menger in the 1870s, German Treasury Secretary Karl Helfferich in the First World War, John Maynard Keynes in the Great Depression, Milton Friedman and Friedrich Hayek in the 1970s, Ben Bernanke in 2008, and Larry Summers and Raj Chetty in 2020. Overall, James' work provides an insightful and thought-provoking analysis of the relationship between economic crises and globalization over the past two centuries, and sheds light on the potential trajectory of future economic developments. Javier Mejia is an economist at Stanford University who specializes in the intersection of social networks and economic history. His research interests also include entrepreneurship and political economy, with a particular focus on Latin America and the Middle East. He holds a Ph.D. in Economics from Los Andes University.

Smartphones have revolutionised warfare, and we are still learning exactly the implications of this. The extent of our full spectrum dependence on Wi-Fi and the internet is profound. Military organisations routinely rely on civilian infrastructure to operate digitally. Now, with AI accelerating the pace of change in tactics, strategy, and targets even further, what does that mean for war? And how civilians participate in it? And what nodes of connectivity can become enemy targets? To find out, Jason is joined this week by Matthew Ford, author of ‘War in the Smartphone Age: Conflict, Connectivity and the Crises at Our Fingertips'. Brought to you in partnership with the New Books Network, this episodes focuses on how technology, particularly smartphones and digital communication, has transformed military strategies and civilian involvement in conflicts. Jason and Matthew explore the topic looking at the case studies of: Hamas; the ongoing war in Ukraine; vulnerabilities in Britain and the West more generally; and the role of civilians in modern warfare.  And as they Order the Disorder, they return to the oft-cited need for better information resilience and media literacy.

What do you do when the real estate market collapses? If you're Ian Livingstone, you buy. In this episode of Distinguished, Dean Arun Upneja speaks with Ian Livingstone, the co-founder of London & Regional Properties, one of the UK's largest private real estate groups, about what it really takes to build a £30 billion global empire, through booms, crashes, and everything in between. Livingstone shares how he went from running 170 optician stores to reshaping urban skylines; why crisis moments create once-in-a-generation opportunities; and how he's built cities like Panama Pacifico, where 20,000+ homes, schools, and commercial districts grew from a single idea and decades of patience. A candid, behind-the-curtain conversation on timing, conviction, distressed assets, hospitality real estate, and why the future of leisure and experience-driven travel still holds unmatched potential, even in the age of AI.  Email us at shadean@bu.eduThe “Distinguished” podcast is produced by Boston University School of Hospitality Administration.

In this episode of Disruption/Interruption, host KJ sits down with Chris Dolezalek, Executive Vice President of R&D at Hum Capital. Chris shares his journey from Silicon Valley’s most highly funded startup to leading innovation in venture capital. He discusses the flaws in traditional VC, the power of resilience, and how technology and human insight are reshaping funding for diverse founders. Listeners will hear hard-won lessons from the edge of chaos, stories of near-failure and rebirth, and practical advice for founders seeking capital in uncertain times. Four Key Takeaways: Resilience is Essential [29:46]Chris emphasizes the importance of getting up after setbacks, sharing the Japanese saying, “Get knocked down seven times, get up eight,” and how resilience is a key trait for founders. Venture Capital Needs Disruption [8:15]Traditional VC relies on personal networks and outdated data, often excluding minority and female founders. Hum Capital is using real-time financial data and AI to democratize access to funding. Human Insight Complements AI [19:35]While AI can flag promising companies, Chris explains the need for human judgment—what he calls “AI whispering”—to make the best investment decisions. Learned Resilience and Growth [36:05]Chris introduces the concept of “learned resilience”—not just bouncing back, but learning from setbacks to come back stronger and smarter. Quote of the Show (32:52):“The truth about software is the Milli Vanilli effect. You don’t have to be able to sing. You just have to look good.” – Chris Dolezalek Join our Anti-PR newsletter where we’re keeping a watchful and clever eye on PR trends, PR fails, and interesting news in tech so you don't have to.

A Message to Our EMN Community — 2026As we step into 2026, I want to pause and say thank you.Emergency management rarely affords us clean endings or fresh starts. Crises overlap, risks compound, and the work continues whether the calendar turns or not. Still, this moment matters. It's a chance to reflect on what we've learned, recalibrate where we're headed, and recommit to the craft and calling of this profession.At EMN, our purpose remains steady: to create space for thoughtful analysis, honest conversation, and practitioner-driven insight. Not noise. Not performative urgency. But work that helps emergency managers think more clearly, decide more deliberately, and lead with humility in uncertain moments.In 2026, EMN will continue leaning into the hard questions—about governance, leadership, federalism, risk communication, resilience, and the human side of disasters that rarely make the after-action report. We'll challenge assumptions, elevate voices from the field, and stay grounded in the reality that disasters begin and end locally, with people.Thank you for being part of this community—reading, listening, questioning, and contributing. The profession is better when we learn together.Wishing you a steady hand, clear judgment, and a safe and meaningful year ahead.— Todd This is a public episode.

In this end of years politics episode, Martin Nutty sits down with Ted Smyth, former Irish diplomat and president of the advisory board at Glucksman Ireland House, NYU, to discuss the political landscape on both sides of the Atlantic.Smyth offers stark assessments of Trump's second term, characterizing it as an assault on American democracy with unchecked executive power. However, he finds hope in recent Democratic victories, particularly Zohran Mamdani's New York City mayoral win and gubernatorial races in Virginia and New Jersey, suggesting voters are experiencing "buyer's remorse" and seeking balance.The conversation explores affordability as the defining issue for upcoming elections, with both American and Irish middle classes struggling with housing costs and basic expenses. Smyth criticizes Ireland's failure to address its housing crisis despite available resources, and discusses coordinated campaigns by right-wing media to destabilize Ireland and the EU.On Ireland-Israel relations, Smyth advocates for focusing on a two-state solution rather than symbolic gestures, drawing parallels to Northern Ireland's peace process. He addresses concerns about Ireland's defense spending and the need for a more proactive public relations strategy to counter negative narratives in publications like the oped pages of the Wall Street Journal.Smyth concludes with an optimistic call to action: support local communities, businesses, and cultural institutions. Whether in Dublin or New York, he argues that strength comes from grassroots engagement and maintaining democratic values during challenging times.Ted Smyth LinksWebsiteGlucksman Ireland HouseUCD Clinton InstituteLinkedInBlueSkyXIrish Stew LinksWebsiteInstagramLinkedInMedia Partner: IrishCentralEpisode Details: Season 7, Episode 39; Total Episode Count: 142

Dr. Vaughn shares a bold, faith-based perspective on:The top 3 health crises people face todayBeing poisoned by food, air, and waterLack of access to clean, real food and pure waterHow the modern medical system often focuses on symptoms, pharmaceuticals, and vaccines instead of true healingSpiritual roots of disease & healthHow there is a demonic agenda to destroy the human body and God's original designWhy believers must recognize we are in a spiritual war for our health, children, and purityThe call to “come out and be separate” and pursue holiness in what we eat, drink, and allow into our bodiesPractical steps for cleaner water & food (even in the city)Best water filtration approaches (including distilled water and systems like Berkey)How to source eggs, dairy, and grass‑fed meat locally, co‑ops, and delivery servicesWhen it's worth paying extra for organic produce, and how to use the Dirty Dozen / Clean 15 listsMagnesium: the missing mineral most people are deficient inWhy magnesium is critical for over 400 functions: sleep, stress, muscles, nerves, and cellular energyWhy almost everyone is magnesium deficient and what Dr. Vaughn sees in blood workBest forms of magnesium:Magnesium chloride (magnesium oil foot soaks, bath crystals)Ocean minerals and mineral blendsWhy some popular forms (like magnesium citrate gummies from big box stores) may not be idealFasting & biblical cleansing for physical and spiritual resetWhy fasting is essential in today's noisy, toxic cultureHow fasting lets the body “let go and let God” and finally healConcepts like autophagy and apoptosis: the body cleaning up weak and diseased cellsReal story: a 71‑year‑old woman who used intermittent fasting and weekly water fasts to get off 17 medications and reverse diabetesSimple starting point: a beginner fast with fruits and vegetables onlyDifferent fasting styles: intermittent fasting, water fasts, Daniel fast, and daily “no‑snacking” rhythmsTo find out how we can help you on your health journey, book a free 15-minute Discovery Call with one of our New Client Coordinators!

Jamie Merchant, the author of Endgame, joins us to talk about the current chaos. Start with the spectacle and you miss the structure. We step past the daily outrage to map Trumpism as a regime built by a new insurgent fraction of capital—tech oligarchs, private equity, and venture investors—who are eager to smash norms, rewrite rules, and route public money through tariffs, defense contracts, and boutique industrial policy. Their rise squeezes out the old asset-management establishment, pushes it toward the Democrats, and locks the opposition into a politics of “normality” that cannot mobilize the base or contest power.We trace the media's role in this shift: a long slide from public-service reporting to algorithmic engagement that rewards emotional spikes and partisan framing. Biden's term tried to stabilize the system with CHIPS, infrastructure, and managed globalization, but even light-touch AI regulation, the SVB collapse, and worker pushback inside tech drove Valley elites rightward. Meanwhile, the stock market's euphoria masks a real economy straining under a profitability crisis. AI's massive data-center build may juice capex and energy demand, but unless it raises productivity broadly, we're sitting on a bubble that deepens monopoly dynamics without delivering shared growth.Zooming out, we argue we're living through a new state-capitalist era with less capacity: the government takes bigger stakes, centralizes power in the executive, and leans on tariffs as revenue, even as planning expertise and administrative muscle erode. The postwar managerial state—Keynesian levers, technocratic confidence, public legitimacy—is gone. That's why policy-first left populism keeps hitting a wall. Without a living, rooted class subject, electoral surges can't endure. We sketch a different route: rebuild working-class civil society—mutual aid, cultural institutions, education, and cross-sector networks that bridge immigrants, service workers, industrial remnants, and professionals. Strategy begins where the regime is weakest: in the social substrate it can't manage or monetize.Hear candid takes on the investor realignment behind Trumpism, the AI bubble loop, why Democrats are structurally stuck, and how to make organizing matter when the state can't—or won't—govern for the whole.

Opinions vary on how much U.S. electricity demand may rise and how much that may impact demand for natural gas. But there's across-the-board agreement that the electric and gas sectors are more intertwined than ever and electric-grid reliability will suffer if gas-fired plants don't get the fuel they need.

The world has reached various inflection points, or so we are often told. Advanced technology, such as artificial intelligence, promises to transform our way of life. In geopolitics, the growing competition between China and the United States heralds an uncertain new era. And within many democracies, the old assumptions that undergirded politics are in doubt; liberalism appears to be in disarray and illiberal forces on the rise.  Few scholars are grappling with the many dimensions of the current moment quite like Daron Acemoglu is. “The world is in the throes of a pervasive crisis,” he wrote in Foreign Affairs in 2023, a crisis characterized by widening economic inequalities and a breakdown in public trust. Acemoglu is a Nobel Prize–winning economist, but his research and writing has long strayed beyond the conventional bounds of his discipline. He has written famously, in the bestselling book Why Nations Fail, about how institutions determine the success of countries. He has explored how technological advances have transformed—or indeed failed to transform—societies. And more recently he has turned his attention to the crisis facing liberal democracy, one accentuated by economic alienation and the threat of technological change. Deputy Editor Kanishk Tharoor spoke with Acemoglu about a stormy world of overlapping crises and about how the ship of liberal democracy might be steered back on course.
