Cécile Wendling est prospectiviste et fondatrice de Panoramique, elle pense à 20, 30, 100 ans — pas par anxiété, mais par élan de vie. Cécile a dirigé la prospective du groupe AXA avant de tout quitter pour créer sa propre structure. Elle a passé des années à aider des organisations, des dirigeants, des individus à se projeter dans le temps long — pas pour prédire l'avenir, mais pour l'écrire lucidement. Elle est sociologue, constructiviste, et elle a cette capacité rare de transformer ce qui nous paralyse en terrain fertile. Je la connais depuis un moment, j'admire sa façon de tenir les deux bouts sans jamais tomber ni dans le catastrophisme ni dans la pensée magique.Dans cet épisode, nous parlons de ce qui nous empêche de nous projeter, de pourquoi la crise est peut-être autant un construit social qu'une réalité, et de comment le temps lui-même est une invention que la société nous impose. J'ai questionné Cécile sur les inégalités face au futur, sur l'Afrique comme laboratoire mondial de l'innovation, sur le conatus de Spinoza comme boussole intérieure, sur ce que ça fait vraiment de sauter d'un grand paquebot pour pagayer dans un petit rafiot. On parle aussi de ce qu'on transmet aux enfants, de l'entraide comme ressource immatérielle, de la dépendance au sentier, du clavier AZERTY et des déchets nucléaires — et tout ça forme un fil cohérent, joyeux, profond, sur la façon dont on peut reprendre la main sur son avenir.3. CITATIONS MARQUANTES"Chacun de nous écrit l'avenir chaque jour par ses décisions. Avoir des décisions de temps long, c'est ça aussi œuvrer à une humanité différente." (Partie 1, ~06:00)"Si on n'est pas capable d'imaginer un avenir où on est heureux de vivre, on ne peut pas le créer, on ne peut pas le faire advenir." (Partie 1, ~30:30)"Le pouvoir a besoin de tristesse parce qu'il sait la contrôler, il sait la manipuler." (Cécile citant Deleuze, Partie 1, ~15:10)"Le vide n'existe pas. Mais ça, tu t'en rends compte que quand tu es dans ton petit rafiot à pagayer." (Partie 2, ~08:20)"Claquer la porte à la violence. Et ouvrir la porte au temps long, à se projeter et inventer l'avenir." (Partie 2, ~25:15)4. IDÉES CENTRALES DISCUTÉES 1. Le temps long comme acte politique et humaniste Titre : Décider loin, c'est résister Explication : Dans un monde qui nous force au temps court (contenus jetables, polycrise, dopamine instantanée), choisir de s'inscrire dans une pratique longue — yoga, instrument de musique, doctorat, engagement — est une forme de résistance et d'émancipation. Ce n'est pas de la lenteur, c'est de la profondeur. Pourquoi c'est important : Parce que sans cette capacité, on devient réactif plutôt qu'acteur. Et Cécile montre que cette inégalité face au temps long a des conséquences concrètes : santé, épargne, alimentation. Timestamp : Partie 1, ~05:00 → 09:002. La crise comme construction sociale — et ses angles morts Titre : On a mis des lunettes grises, et on a oublié qu'on pouvait les enlever Explication : Cécile questionne frontalement notre façon de nommer "crise" tout ce qui arrive. Ce label n'est pas neutre : il induit des décisions précipitées, sacrifie ce qu'on juge "non essentiel" (la culture pendant le Covid), et nourrit les passions tristes au sens de Spinoza — peur, résignation, paralysie — qui nous coupent de notre élan vital. Pourquoi c'est important : Parce que changer de lunettes n'est pas de la naïveté. C'est un acte cognitif et politique qui ouvre d'autres modes d'action. Timestamp : Partie 1, ~12:00 → 17:003. Le conatus : le feu qu'on ne développe pas, qu'on libère Titre : Ce n'est pas ton cerveau qui sait — c'est ton feu Explication : Face à l'angoisse des parents devant l'IA et les métiers de demain, Cécile propose une réponse contre-intuitive : au lieu de regarder à l'extérieur, se reconnecter à son désir le plus intime. Le conatus (Spinoza) — cet élan vital propre à chacun — ne se développe pas, il se libère : par le lien, l'engagement, la contemplation, et en ôtant la pression de l'ultra-performance. Pourquoi c'est important : Parce que c'est la seule boussole stable dans un monde incertain. Timestamp : Partie 2, ~01:30 → 03:304. L'entraide comme ressource immatérielle — invisible, mais fondamentale Titre : Ce qu'on ne mesure pas, on le détruit Explication : Depuis Thatcher et Reagan, nos sociétés ont surinvesti ce qui se mesure (PIB, productivité) et désinvesti les ressources immatérielles : confiance, empathie, entraide. Or ces ressources fonctionnent comme le temps long — plus on les nourrit, plus elles grandissent ; si on les abandonne, le lien social s'effondre rapidement. La tontine féminine, Leetchi détourné par des agriculteurs, le low-tech africain : l'entraide existe partout, souvent invisible. Pourquoi c'est important : Parce que face aux inégalités que les politiques macroéconomiques ne savent pas résoudre, l'entraide locale est la réponse de terrain la plus puissante et la plus rapide à activer. Timestamp : Partie 1, ~20:00 → 24:005. La dépendance au sentier — pourquoi le passé emprisonne le futur Titre : Le clavier AZERTY et les déchets nucléaires ont la même origine Explication : Se projeter en arrière ne sert pas à répéter le passé, mais à identifier les "dépendances au sentier" et les "effets cliquet" : des choix initiaux qui contraignent toutes les décisions suivantes. Le clavier AZERTY (conçu pour ralentir les dactylos), le nucléaire (conçu pour miniaturiser une arme avant de faire une centrale) illustrent comment un critère de départ non questionné génère des coûts considérables sur le long terme. Pourquoi c'est important : Parce que prendre conscience de ces biais structurels est la condition nécessaire pour en sortir — individuellement et collectivement. Timestamp : Partie 2, ~12:00 → 14:306. L'Afrique, laboratoire du monde de demain Titre : Pendant qu'on vieillit, eux inventent Explication : Démographiquement, l'Afrique sera le continent dominant à 2100. Contrainte par le manque, elle invente des solutions frugales brillantes (IA sur carte SIM sans réseau, tontine, low-tech). L'afrofuturisme est le mouvement culturel et intellectuel par lequel ces populations reprennent la narration de leur propre avenir. Pendant ce temps, l'Occident vieillit et — sociologiquement — devient plus conservateur, moins innovant. Pourquoi c'est important : Parce que refuser de s'inspirer de l'Afrique par néocolonialisme inconscient, c'est se priver de la source d'innovation la plus féconde des prochaines décennies. Timestamp : Partie 1, ~24:30 → 27:305. QUESTIONS Qu'est-ce que ça veut dire concrètement être prospectiviste — et pourquoi tu n'es pas devin ?Comment on fait pour se projeter dans le temps long quand le futur nous semble chaotique et flou ?Face à la paralysie ou à l'écoanxiété, qu'est-ce qui permet de réinjecter de la joie dans sa vision du futur ?On vit une polycrise réelle — crises climatique, géopolitique, économique, sociale — comment tu arrives à aimer cette époque malgré tout ?Est-ce que la crise n'est pas en partie une construction sociale, une paire de lunettes qu'on pourrait enlever ?Quel est le discours qu'on peut tenir aux personnes qui n'arrivent pas à joindre les deux bouts, à ceux que l'optimisme ressemble à une offense ?Est-ce que le futur appartient à l'Afrique — et pourquoi on a autant de mal à s'en inspirer ?Pourquoi aider les gens à se projeter dans le temps long est ta raison d'être — et qu'est-ce que ça change dans une vie de penser à 20, 30, 100 ans ?Comment est-ce qu'on ose quitter sa zone de confort quand tout dans la société nous pousse vers le confort et la sécurité ?Le futur ne répète pas le passé — alors à quoi ça sert de se projeter en arrière, et qu'est-ce que la dépendance au sentier nous apprend sur les choix qu'on fait aujourd'hui ?6.

Are you ready for some insanity!? We have the episode for you.We've got three INSANE news stories this week, so I'm inventing a new game just for these:Game 1 - Have I Got Absurd News For You I've got three news stories, all our players have to do is tell me which one I've judged to be the most insane story of the week. Story 1 - Naked Man Steals An Ambulance With a Patient Inside https://www.wsaw.com/2026/02/19/suspect-identified-stolen-ambulance-chase-with-patient-still-inside/ Story 2 - 'Ridiculous' Plan Developed at Florida Zoo Saves Wild Rhino's Eye in Africa https://apnews.com/article/rhino-eye-treatment-florida-zimbabwe-dcf53d149e13cc077c2739999d2d6d9e Story 3 - Chinese Woman Adjusts Community Mirror for Better Feng Shui, Causes Series of Traffic Accidents https://www.scmp.com/news/people-culture/trending-china/article/3341528/china-woman-adjusts-community-traffic-mirror-better-feng-shui-causing-series-accidents Game 2 - One Thing or Another I've got two lists of ten things, and our players just have to tell me whether it's one thing or another. Each player gets to guess at half of each list, and whoever gets more correct after both lists wins the game and earns two episode points. Game 3 - 4 Out of 5 Dentists I've got five surveys asking questions like "what percentage of Americans believe in ghosts", and one player will guess the exact percentage - if they are within ten points high or low, they'll get a point. The other player will guess whether the actual answer is higher or lower, and they'll get a point if they're correct. After all five surveys, the player with the highest score wins the game and gets three episode points.Promos From the Middle Proudly Sponsored by Peace, Love, & Budhttps://www.plbud.com/WeedStockShoutouts to our Patrons; Mexi, Justin B, Kristin F ,Jeramey F ,Flaose, Todd, Jim, Flaos, Bridget F., David M., Dave A, Erin S, Donna/Colin Maggs,The GateLeapers, Kacey S., William M., Crunchie, DJ Xanthus, Crystal D., Jeff S, Gina W., 8Bit, Matt.Founding Members of @OddPodsMedia https://www.patreon.com/BFYTWShow Music by @KeroseneLetter and @Mexigun Our Merch Available by contacting us.https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCyJG-PDn6su32Et_eSiC6RQA MidnightSmoke Productionhttps://bfytwpod.com/?p=1644Show #308 We're Not Lost Anymore

All over the world, masses of people watch, follow, document, and obsess over baseball. Everything remarkable about the impact of baseball derives from the game's history and cultural status as events that draw people together in these ways. Understanding baseball as a cultural phenomenon is therefore less a matter of mastering the vocabulary of the game or merely recollecting its iconic stadiums, players, and stats. While all those details compel insiders and inspire fans, baseball's peculiar and persistent appeal can only be understood by adopting a wider lens. It requires reckoning with the history of structured competition. The classic backyard game of catch between a father and son draws meaning from its associations with the organized sport and its history. The challenge lies less in finding one perfect spot to look, but rather in identifying the many different places where baseball has accumulated significance. Out of the Ballpark: How to Think about Baseball (Oxford University Press, 2026) reconsiders the character, meaning, and delights of the game by exploring both baseball's unusual features and the sport's many resonances with other aspects of modern life. To this end, it abandons several assumptions and mythologies that underlie most approaches to histories of baseball: that it is unique among sports and fundamentally different from other kinds of entertainment; that it is specific to the United States; that it has changed fundamentally in recent years; and that the keys to understanding it lie primarily in examining what happens on the field of play. Instead, David M. Henkin moves across time and space to examine baseball's history since the nineteenth century and beyond US borders. He takes readers inside the structures of clubs and leagues, interprets the sacred scripture of rulebooks, and illuminates some of baseball's rites and rituals that are often associated with honor and manhood. He charts baseball's significance along the routes of American and Japanese imperial expansion and the shifting maps of race and ethnicity in the US. Baseball is found at negotiating tables that pit capital against labor and in pivotal moments in the history of mass media. Here, we are shown how baseball might offer a complex and capacious space for thinking about such things as spectatorship, success, community, order, and contingency in the modern world. David M. Henkin is Professor of History at the University of California, Berkeley, where he has taught courses on society and culture in nineteenth-century America for close to three decades.

While all those details compel insiders and inspire fans, baseball's peculiar and persistent appeal can only be understood by adopting a wider lens. It requires reckoning with the history of structured competition. The classic backyard game of catch between a father and son draws meaning from its associations with the organized sport and its history. The challenge lies less in finding one perfect spot to look, but rather in identifying the many different places where baseball has accumulated significance. Out of the Ballpark: How to Think about Baseball (Oxford University Press, 2026) reconsiders the character, meaning, and delights of the game by exploring both baseball's unusual features and the sport's many resonances with other aspects of modern life. To this end, it abandons several assumptions and mythologies that underlie most approaches to histories of baseball: that it is unique among sports and fundamentally different from other kinds of entertainment; that it is specific to the United States; that it has changed fundamentally in recent years; and that the keys to understanding it lie primarily in examining what happens on the field of play. Instead, David M. Henkin moves across time and space to examine baseball's history since the nineteenth century and beyond US borders. He takes readers inside the structures of clubs and leagues, interprets the sacred scripture of rulebooks, and illuminates some of baseball's rites and rituals that are often associated with honor and manhood. He charts baseball's significance along the routes of American and Japanese imperial expansion and the shifting maps of race and ethnicity in the US. Baseball is found at negotiating tables that pit capital against labor and in pivotal moments in the history of mass media. Here, we are shown how baseball might offer a complex and capacious space for thinking about such things as spectatorship, success, community, order, and contingency in the modern world. David M. Henkin is Professor of History at the University of California, Berkeley, where he has taught courses on society and culture in nineteenth-century America for close to three decades.

In deze aflevering gaat Simone in gesprek met David Müskens : ondernemer, vader en grondlegger van de Quantum Reset Methode, met een diepgaande en eigen kijk op gezondheid en persoonlijke ontwikkeling.Samen bespreken ze een bijzondere healing sessie, een ervaring die niet alleen grote impact had op Simone's zoon, maar misschien nog wel meer op haarzelf. Luister naar dit openhartig gesprek over Davids persoonlijke en professionele reis: van podotherapeut naar het ontwikkelen van een geheel eigen methode, zijn ervaringen als vader van een zoon met een zeldzaam syndroom, en hoe hij lichaam en geest als één geheel benadert in werk en leven.Je hoort inzichten over de verbinding tussen fysieke klachten en emotionele ballast, de moed die het vraagt om als ondernemer je hart te volgen, én praktische handvatten om steviger in je eigen kracht te staan, zowel persoonlijk als professioneel.Een aflevering die raakt, verdiept en uitnodigt tot reflectie.Veel luisterplezier!

This can be a book, TV show, movie, or video game, and the only limitation is that it can't have been done before. So no Air Bud 2, but if you want a dog playing hockey, Ice Bud is on the table.

Our players will choose keyboard keys, CTRL, ALT, DEL, INSERT, HOME, and END - behind each one is a set of four clues, each has something in common. If they figure it out after one clue, 5 points, after two clues, 3 points, after three, 2 points, and if they need all four, 1 point.

We're back with a traditional BFYTW episode. Aaron hosts three games between AugieDoggie and MidnightSmoke in a Robot Themed episode. Game 1 - Like Share BlockStory 1 - Robot Sets Guinness Record for Walking 100 Kilometers in Three Days https://www.globaltimes.cn/page/202511/1348722.shtml Story 2 - AI Teddy Bear Inexplicably Pulled From Market After Giving Kids BDSM Advice and Talked About Where to Find Knives https://edition.cnn.com/2025/11/19/tech/folotoy-kumma-ai-bear-scli-intl Story 3 - Researchers Create Computer Chips Powered by Shittake Mushrooms https://news.osu.edu/powered-by-mushrooms-living-computers-are-on-the-rise/ Game 2 - Pop Culture Fight Club The game of answering a tough question and defending your position returns! I'll ask each player for the best something or their favorite something from the world of pop culture, and they'll have to explain and defend themselves as best they can, and the best answer as judged by me will get two episode points. This week, I've been inspired by technology. There's lots of cool real-world technological innovations that are exciting, and none of them use generative AI, but I'm more curious about the world of the imagination. What technology from the world of video games do you most wish we had in real life? Game 3 - The Cost is Correct I've got three recent auctions that have sold, and my players are going to take turns bidding to try and bid as close as they can to the final auction price without going over. We're doing 'final bids' rules, so they'll bid back and forth, and I will announce final bids when one of them EITHER is very close to the final auction price OR they have gone over.Promos From the Middle & Married w/ TVhttps://peakimprov.com/shows-eventsPromos Crooked Table & NoDak NerdProudly Sponsored by Peace, Love, & Budhttps://www.plbud.com/Shoutouts to our Patrons; Mexi, Justin B, Kristin F ,Jeramey F ,Flaose, Todd, Jim, Flaos, Bridget F., David M., Dave A, Erin S, Donna/Colin Maggs,The GateLeapers, Kacey S., William M., Crunchie, DJ Xanthus, Crystal D., Jeff S, Gina W., 8Bit, Matt.Free Followers on Patreon: Joáo C, Joep, Leonardo, Irsya Cahyo, Teanna Cm Lucho D.Founding Members of @OddPodsMedia https://www.patreon.com/BFYTWShow Music by @KeroseneLetter and @Mexigun Our Merch Available by contacting us.https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCyJG-PDn6su32Et_eSiC6RQ

David Whitford joins Jana Byars to talk about his new book, The Making of a Reformation Man: Martin Luther and the Construction of Masculinity (Routledge, 2025). This volume explores how Martin Luther's life and teachings reshaped and redefined masculinity during the Reformation, offering a more nuanced portrayal of him as a man grappling with the complexities of fatherhood, marriage, and the battlegrounds of religious controversy. This book demonstrates how Luther forged a new ideal of Christian manhood by examining his struggles with monastic vows, his transformation of the household as a spiritual center, and his reshaping of male authority. Integrating insights from cultural historians, gender studies, and feminist scholarship, Whitford analyzes the intersections of gender, power, and religion during a time of profound social upheaval and change. Through Luther's personal transformation, this book reveals how early Protestant ideals of masculinity were intricately tied to broader religious, political, and cultural changes that reshaped Europe. By placing Luther within the wider context of religious and social transformation, this work offers a fresh perspective on his impact and the changing notions of masculinity in the early modern period. The Making of a Reformation Man is a valuable resource for scholars and students of the Reformations and gender theory, as well as readers interested in the broader implications of religious thought on societal roles and identity.
