Podcast appearances and mentions of dan raviv

“CURE America with Star Parker” commenced with a captivating exploration of the Middle East, featuring a one-on-one dialogue with Dan Raviv. Raviv shared keen insights into the evolving dynamics in Israel, delving into historical nuances and regional complexities. The spotlight then shifted to Daniel Flesch, a seasoned expert in Foreign Policy, offering a sharp perspective to the conversation. These interviews, alongside contributions from Jonathan Alexandre, Senior Council at Liberty Council Action, Richard Manning, President of Americans for Limited Government, and Marty Dannenfelser, Vice President of Government Affairs and Coalitions at CURE, collectively provided a nuanced understanding of the intricate geopolitical landscape in the Middle East. Dannenfelser, in his role at CURE, added additional depth to the dialogue, addressing regional challenges and presenting expert analyses for potential strategies.

With the backdrop of rocket-filled skies over the Holy Land, Dan Raviv, an expert on Israel and the Middle East, engages in a profound conversation with Star Parker. They delve into the contentious issue of Israel's historical and Biblical claim to the land, tracing it back to ancient times. In 1947, the United Nations took a historic step by endorsing the creation of two states, Israel and Palestine, coexisting side by side. However, the surrounding Arab nations vehemently opposed this vision. Their refusal to accept the establishment of a Jewish state sparked aggressive wars by the Arab states, which coordinated their efforts to annihilate Israel. During this candid conversation, Dan Raviv offers a thoughtful exploration of potential pathways to resolving the Israel-Hamas War, drawing from key historical events to shed light on the complex dynamics in the region.  

Dan Raviv, longtime foreign correspondent for CBS News, now writing articles and books on the Middle East and Israel-US relations, joins Mark Reardon to discuss how Israeli intelligence missed the Hamas attack, Israel's Iron Dome, and the Gaza hospital reporting failure.

Hour 1: Dan Raviv, a longtime foreign correspondent for CBS News, now writing articles and books on the Middle East and Israel-US relations, joins Mark Reardon to discuss how Israeli intelligence missed the Hamas attack, Israel's Iron Dome, and the Gaza hospital reporting failure. Mark also discusses the media malpractice surrounding the Israel-Hamas war, a professor who canceled class because Reily Gaines was visiting, and more!

On Episode 20 of the D.C. Debrief, host John Stolnis speaks with freelance journalist Dan Raviv on the latest with Hamas' attack on Israel and the Jewish nation's response. How is the United States planning to help? Also, there is still no House Speaker, RFK Jr. goes independent-er, and is inflation in America leveling off? Featuring reports from Jerusalem Bureau Chief Chris Mitchell, CBN National Security Correspondent Caitlin Burke, CBN Reporter Gary Lane and CBN Capitol Hill Correspondent Matt Galka.

What motivated the Hamas terrorist attack? How did Israel fail to stop it? What role is Iran playing in this conflict? What should Americans know about the state of Israel's chaotic internal politics? And what comes next? Today's show has two guests. Dan Raviv is the author of several bestselling books on Israel, Israeli-American relations, and Israeli intelligence. He was a CBS News national and international correspondent for over 40 years. He's here to provide context on Hamas and Israeli politics. To help us understand some of the regional political dynamics, we have Jeffrey Sonnenfeld, who has been an adviser for several accords and peace talks in the Middle East in the past decade. He is also the president of the Yale Chief Executive Leadership Institute.

Marvel Animation Age (MAA): First off, what do you think makes the X-Men such an appealing property to animate? Will Meugniot (WM): It's all about the characters. X-Men in almost every incarnation has enjoyed a great blend of likable, unique heroes. Plus the subtext of young people who are finding themselves is of great appeal. MAA: How do you think all three X-Men shows compare in terms of animation, storytelling and X-team line-up? Which one do think has the leg up over the others? WM: In terms of animation, I'd have to go with Boyd Kirkland's X-Men: Evolution series, though I always liked the pilot's Toei animation as well. As for character line up, the Fox Kids version is my favorite. All three of them have strengths and weaknesses, but on the whole, admitting that I'm biased, the Fox X-Men is my favorite. MAA: With which X-Men show were you the most comfortable working on? Which one gave you more opportunity to flex your muscle? WM: The Fox Kid's was the most satisfying to me, and the one which allowed me the most creative control. MAA: Of all the many different Marvel Comics-based shows you have worked on, which was your favorite? WM: Undoubtedly the Fox X-Men. Both for the show and the people I got to work with on it. Larry Houston, Eric Lewald, Rick Hoberg, the Edens Brothers and Sidney Iwanter have all proven to be life-long friends and collaborators. MAA: To go off-topic for a moment, you worked on the unaired Captain America cartoon. Why was the show never finished? How much work was actually done on the show? You mention casting on your site, scripts and a promo film. When was the show originally intended to air, and who was involved? WM: For anybody who wants to really understand what was going on with Marvel during that period and why all their animated shows stopped production, I'd recommend reading Comic Wars: How Two Tycoons Battled Over the Marvel Comics Empire--And Both Lost by Dan Raviv. MAA: To wrap this up, and given that this will be featured on the X-Men: The Animated Series site, do you have any favorite moments - both off and on the screen - concerning this classic series? WM: The evening before the premiere of the first episode on Fox Kids, I'd been to Toys R Us and they had mounds of those sorry looking X-Men Bendies and early action figures which were not as nice as their later versions. A few hours after the show aired, I re-visited the store and to my shock, found they only had a single X-Men toy left, a Wolverine Bendie with a chewed up backing card. That�s when I knew the show would be a hit. https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/movies/movie-news/x-men-animated-series-story-90s-cartoon-hit-1052263/ Will Meugniot, artist/producer: Larry had presented a version of it that was amazing and wonderful and in some ways better than what we wound up with. Because Larry was such a solid fan of X-Men and he knew the show was going to run 65 episodes and eventually everybody was going to show up in it, he put everybody in the title. Fox freaked out. They were already worried we had too many characters in the show.  Meugniot: Sidney Iwanter, our Fox supervisor on the show, phoned me and said, “what can we do about this?” [The opening two scenes]  We discussed it and we both agreed that Larry had done a great job, we just needed to save what we could. While we were talking, I did thumbnails of the individual character introduction shots. Larry already had the one of Wolverine where he's slashing a Sentinel and sitting on top of a pile of rubble. I built out from that and worked out rough staging from the individual shots. Meugniot: We thought we'd have the logos fly in so everyone would get an intro. In the end, we ended up using about 80 percent of Larry's stuff. It was just that I was on the phone with Sydney, I did thumbnails and charts of where we'd use the existing stuff Larry had done, where he put in character specific shots and logo flybys. When I gave it to Larry, he totally got it and we were done. Meugniot: Our show demonstrated that the Marvel universe, as a whole, had commercial value far beyond what anybody estimated. X-Men was getting primetime numbers on Saturday morning. In our time slot, we were doing business nobody had done since the ‘70s. Fox had this 1, 2, 3 in ratings. Batman as a daily show lit the fuse for them. They hadn't been doing very well as a network until they got Batman and Animaniacs and those shows. Then X-Men kind of kicked it to the next level, by giving them a big, solid weekend show. Meugniot: There was merchandise threat that almost shut down the production. They had made a deal with a fast food franchise to do some X-Men giveaway toys in Australia. And whoever had negotiated the deal had promised the Australian food franchisee that those toys would appear in the show. They were some of the most God awful designs possible.  So I said no, and the situation festered for a few days. At home one night I got a call from Jim Graziano, who was the head of Graz, the production company I was working for. Jim just said, “Look, Marvel is threatening to pull the show from us if you don't cave on this.” He goes, “If you think it's important, we'll back you. But think very carefully, because there will probably be consequences.” I said, “We can't cave on this, or we are going to have to cave on everything.” And Jim backed me and it was a really tense few days and we prevailed. Meugniot: What I think people don't understand is X-Men wasn't canceled. It had actually been scheduled to be 65 episodes and had been extended past the original order. When it was done, it was like “well, contract fulfilled. We did it.” X-MEN ANIMATED SERIES 25th ANNIVERSARY PANEL https://youtu.be/mu8_WOEnV8g?t=390 Previously on X-Men: The Making of an Animated Series By Eric Lewald https://smile.amazon.com/Previously-X-Men-Animated-Eric-Lewald-ebook/dp/B077XLWMK6/                                   PREVIOUSLY ON LEGENDS OF S.H.I.E.L.D….

In particular, X-Men fans were abuzz over the scene that seemingly included the voice of Patrick Stewart returning in this role as Professor X from the X-Men movies. Stewart currently stars in Star Trek: Picard on Paramount+. While discussing the second season of his return as Jean-Luc Picard with ComicBook.com, he also commented on the apparent use of his voice in the Doctor Strange trailer. According to Stewart, that's all that it was, someone else using his voice, which he's experienced over the entirety of his storied career.    "You know, people have been imitating my voice ever since I came on the stage 60 years ago," Stewart said of the trailer. "So, I can't be held responsible for that."   Was that someone imitating Stewart's voice in the Doctor Strange trailer? Or is this an evolution of the Andrew Garfield press playbook? That strategy saw The Amazing Spider-Man actor pointedly denying his involvement in Spider-Man: No Way Home until the movie opened.   Professor X's presumed appearance in Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness recasts the character as part of the shadowy Marvel organization called The Illuminati. Rumors have circulated about his return for some time. Previous to that, he admitted that he'd discussed reprising his role as Professor X with Kevin Feige. Ultimately he felt that Logan put too perfect an ending on the character's story to tarnish.   "Here's the problem... If we had not made Logan, then yes, I would probably be ready to get into that wheelchair one more time and be Charles Xavier," Stewart said. "But Logan changed all that. Here's a tiny anecdote. The first time that Hugh [Jackman] and I saw the film in public was at the Berlin Film Festival, which is where the movie premiered. Shortly after Xavier's death scene, I found myself getting very emotional, but I had to keep a hold of myself because we were sitting in the middle of this cinema. And then I saw Hugh's hand come up to his eye and wipe away a tear. I thought, 'Dammit, the bugger's crying. Oh, let it out, Patrick.'"   DISNEY+   https://www.cbr.com/marvel-daredevil-punisher-luke-cage-iron-fist-jessica-jones-disney-plus/   Deborah Ann Woll Launches New Ongoing Dungeons & Dragons Show  https://comicbook.com/gaming/news/dungeons-dragons-deborah-ann-woll-demiplan-children-earte/  Daredevil actress Deborah Ann Woll will appear in a new ongoing Dungeons & Dragons live play series.

Intro.(1:39) - Start of interview.(2:15) - About UC Hastings and the Center for Business Law [that we are building together!](5:10) - Jared's "origin story": he grew up in Michigan, attended the U. of Michigan (BA political science) and Columbia Law School (JD). A book on the bankruptcy of Marvel Comics led him to bankruptcy law and practice. After graduation he joined Brown Rudnick in NYC ('07-'11). He later joined academia as a Teaching Fellow and Lecturer in Law in Corporate Governance & Practice at Stanford Law School ('11-'14). He joined the UC Hastings Faculty in 2014.(9:38) - Start of discussion about his latest article The Rise of Bankruptcy Directors: "Traditionally bankruptcy is about a court process, not a board process." But his research shows that the boardroom increased its prominence in bankruptcy starting in about 2012-2013, where many distressed companies, especially those controlled by private equity sponsors, prepared for bankruptcy by appointing independent directors (which they call "bankruptcy directors") to their boards of directors with the power to make key bankruptcy decisions.(13:03) -  On the new cohort of "bankruptcy directors" and the parallels with venture capital and Silicon Valley [Their dataset consists of the boards of directors of 528 firms and the 2,895 individuals who collectively hold 3,038 directorships at firms in bankruptcies from 2004-2019]: "The change is that a practice that was once relatively uncommon has become ubiquitous and a central and standard part of the process of preparing for a Chapter 11 bankruptcy filing, leading to the growth of an industry of professional bankruptcy directors who fill this new demand for bankruptcy experts on the board of distressed firms."(15:08) - On the question of fiduciary duty of loyalty and conflicts of interests of bankruptcy directors (particularly regarding the private equity controlling owners) and the emergence of "super-repeater directors".(16:38) - The example of the Nine-West bankruptcy.(21:34) - Whether bankruptcy judges will incorporate some standards such as those used (for example) by the Delaware Chancery Court on the independence of directors, board conflicts and the decision-making process of the board.(23:02) - On his finding that unsecured creditors recovered 21% less when a bankruptcy director is appointed.  On the lucrative new bankruptcy director role.(26:04) - On his proposal that the court regard bankruptcy directors as independent only if creditors support their appointment.(29:03) - "The elevation of the board is an important (new) trend in the bankruptcy process."

US President Joe Biden has won Republican support for a massive infrastructure spending package. It's aimed at repairing crumbling roads, bridges and airports in the world's largest economy. The administration's proposed spending around a trillion dollars over the next eight years. A bipartisan group of 21 Senators has agreed to support the bill. Ten of them are Republicans, and together with the chamber's 50 Democrats, the measure should have the 60 votes it needs to pass. The current proposal is a result of weeks of talks. The White House had originally asked for more than two trillion dollars, but trimmed the total to win over the opposition. For more on this, we spoke to Dan Raviv in Washington DC. He's a columnist for Newsday. #JoeBiden #Bipartisan #InfrastructureDeal

ep. 76 - Dan Raviv by GDA Speakers

The enemy of my enemy... is still my enemy but at least they can help me out for a bit. That was the attitude the Israelis had when they asked an ex-Nazi intelligence officer to help them out in the early 60s. In an adventure that reads more like a spy novel than a history book, Otto Skorzeny teamed up with the Mossad to stop a threat that would shift the balance of power in the Middle East. (Totally feel like I'm writing a blurb on the back of a spy thriller right now) Special thanks to Dan Raviv and Yossi Melman for their fantastic article on this subject: foward.com/news/336943/ht/

Dr. Chiaravalloti provided her insight into the film, which is provoking much discussion about the risks of contact sports, from professional leagues to youth sports, and the need for further research on the long-term effects of repetitive brain injuries. Dr. Chiaravalloti is Director of Neuropsychology, Neuroscience and Traumatic Brain Injury Research at the New Jersey based Kessler Foundation.
