Podcasts about Denmark

A conversation with Matt Orlando, chef, entrepreneur, and former head chef at Noma. He is also the founder of Amass, one of the most circular and fully organic restaurants in the world, which closed at the end of 2022. He then focused on a project in Singapore and is now back in Denmark, currently very busy with, among other things, a new restaurant in Copenhagen.What happens when someone who worked as a head chef in one of the best restaurants in the world, Noma, starts going deep—deep—down the rabbit hole of sustainability and responsibility?Welcome to a fascinating journey of one of the most interesting chefs in the world, who not only redefined what a circular, sustainable restaurant mean (and no, it isn't more expensive to run, and it doesn't require a lot of tech, etc.), but it does require a completely new mindset and way of thinking.More about this episode.==========================In Investing in Regenerative Agriculture and Food podcast show we talk to the pioneers in the regenerative food and agriculture space to learn more on how to put our money to work to regenerate soil, people, local communities and ecosystems while making an appropriate and fair return.

The Good News That Media Doesn't Tell You Before diving into the political chaos, we start with hope: 3D-printed lung tissue that could cure COPD and asthma, revolutionary IVF techniques saving babies from mitochondrial diseases, and breakthrough infant heart transplant procedures expanding donor pools by 20%. Sometimes the best news is the news that reminds us human ingenuity is solving problems we thought impossible. Congressional Chaos & Crypto Drama The Senate passes Trump's $9 billion spending cuts in a nail-biter 51-48 vote, targeting foreign aid and public broadcasting. But the real drama? House Republicans initially blocked crypto bills during "Crypto Week" until Trump personally called holdouts to the Oval Office. We break down the GENIUS Act for stablecoin regulation, Bitcoin hitting $123K, and why regulating an industry you're profiting from might be problematic. The Musk vs. Trump Epstein Files Showdown Elon Musk has gone full chaos mode against Trump over Jeffrey Epstein files, even announcing an "America Party" to prioritize their release. We explore how this billionaire Twitter beef is creating genuine fractures in the MAGA movement and potentially costing Republicans seats in 2026. Immigration Crackdown Reality Check ICE now has access to 79 million Medicaid enrollees' personal data for deportation efforts. We examine the surge in arrests (47% without criminal charges), violent California cannabis farm raids, and the controversial "Alligator Alcatraz" detention center that Democrats and Republicans describe completely differently. International Military Escalation Trump's "Operation Midnight Hammer" strikes on Iranian nuclear facilities, his complete flip on Russia policy with 100% tariff threats, and renewed violence in Syria. Plus, the ongoing Gaza humanitarian crisis and why a 20-year-old American was allegedly killed by Israeli settlers in the West Bank. Research on a Dime: What Is Socialism Actually? We break down the most misunderstood political term in America. Spoiler alert: Those "socialist" Nordic countries? Not actually socialist. Denmark's PM had to literally tell Americans to stop calling them that. We explore real socialism's pros and cons, why Americans already live with tons of "socialist" policies, and what NYC mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani's democratic socialism experiment might mean for American politics. Domestic Policy Pandemonium Trump freezes $6 billion in education grants, threatens to strip citizenship from political opponents (spoiler: he legally can't), and escalates tariffs on 100+ countries while inflation ticks upward. We also cover the Texas flooding tragedy, church shooting in Kentucky, and why your medical debt might stay on your credit report after all. The Numbers That Matter Bitcoin: $123,165 all-time high ICE arrests: 930 daily (triple the original target) Immigration detention: 60,000 people (20,000 over Congressional funding) Texas flooding: 80+ dead, 41 still missing Gaza casualties: 57,000+ Palestinians killed since October 7, 2023 Purple Political Breakdown cuts through partisan noise to deliver nuanced analysis of the week's biggest political stories.

"Once a quarter, I buy my own company. I step back and ask—what works, what doesn't, and where the opportunity is." — Hannah Kain, CEO of ALOM What does it take to turn a nascent idea in an unfamiliar country into a global success? In this episode of On the Brink with Andi Simon, I had the pleasure of speaking with Hannah Kain, CEO and President of ALOM, a trailblazing supply chain company that began in 1997 and now operates across 20 global locations. Hannah's story is more than a business success—it's a masterclass in innovation, agility, and values-driven leadership. A Leap of Faith—a Vision and a Purpose Born and raised in Denmark, Hannah enjoyed a thriving political and business career before she and her husband bought one-way tickets to the U.S. in 1990. What followed was a journey of reinvention and opportunity. By 1997, Hannah founded ALOM in the heart of Silicon Valley, identifying early on the opportunity to use technology to enhance supply chain operations—well before “supply chain” was a mainstream concept. From the beginning, ALOM was built on innovation. When the company opened its doors, they launched with customer portals and real-time visibility—now standard, but then revolutionary. Their first revenue came from floppy disk duplication. When that technology faded, Hannah pivoted, embracing e-commerce and expanding into regulated industries, always asking: what's next? Mind Games for Modern CEOs One of the most striking takeaways from our conversation is how Hannah rethinks her company—regularly. “Once a quarter,” she says, “I buy my own company.” She imagines herself as an outsider, assessing the business with fresh eyes. What would she keep? What needs to go? What opportunities are emerging? This “buy-your-own-business” mindset keeps her ahead of disruption. This is a deeply anthropological approach—stepping outside your own story to see it anew. It's also core to a Blue Ocean Strategy: shed the outdated, build the new, and serve unmet needs. Innovation, Values, and Culture are What Really Matter While Hannah is passionate about technology and supply chain solutions, her foundation is rooted in values—innovation, collaboration, quality, and diversity. Culture, she believes, isn't a side conversation—it's a strategic priority. And when values misalign, even a high performer may not be the right fit. Culture can make or break agility. “Personnel decisions are more strategic than we think,” Hannah observes, especially in fast-changing environments. You will enjoy watching our Podcast on YouTube: The Future is Here—If You Can See It We explored how Hannah navigates today's volatile supply chain world: tariffs, technology, talent shortages, and trade wars. She shared how she mitigates risks—like storing lithium batteries in an award-winning facility designed specifically for safety—and how she balances immediate challenges with long-term strategic thinking. Her approach? Plan for 95% and build agility for the remaining 5%. “If you don't plan for 95%, you'll be stuck firefighting 100%.” Data, Intuition, and Ecosystems Data is vital, Hannah says—but data alone is not enough. “It's the rearview mirror. You need to look out the windshield.” What she's really looking for is meaning—trends, risks, and opportunities derived from experience, context, and yes, intuition. She credits much of her insight to exploring the entire ecosystem—talking to employees, clients, suppliers, and staying deeply embedded in industry networks. She also emphasized that leaders must separate the urgent from the important, and prioritize the tasks that drive long-term value. What's Next? Hannah believes AI will be transformative in supply chain logistics—especially in image recognition, predictability, and precision. She's skeptical of blockchain until there's wide-scale collaboration, but excited by AI's capacity to reduce risk and increase agility. Her parting wisdom? Don't get stuck managing risk so tightly that you miss opportunity. Reinvention is possible—and necessary. And it begins, quite literally, with a morning shower and one powerful question: “What's the most important thing I can do for my ecosystem today?” Where to learn more about Hannah Kain and the work she is doing: Hannah's Profile: linkedin.com/in/hannahkain Website: alom.com (ALOM) Email: hkain@alom.com Listen to these other podcasts or read the blogs about them: 442: Joyce Salzberg is Changing Lives Through Early Intervention 436: Women, #WorkSchoolHours Can Transform Your Life 429: Embracing the Future: How Matt Leta is Guiding Companies Connect with me: Website: www.simonassociates.net Email: info@simonassociates.net Books:  Learn more about our books here: Rethink: Smashing the Myths of Women in Business Women Mean Business: Over 500 Insights from Extraordinary Leaders to Spark Your Success On the Brink: A Fresh Lens to Take Your Business to New Heights Listen + Subscribe: Available wherever you get your podcasts—Apple, Spotify, Stitcher, YouTube, and more.

Today Razib talks to David  Gress, a Danish historian. The son of an American literary scholar and a Danish writer, he grew up in Denmark, read Classics at Cambridge, and then earned a Ph.D. in medieval history from Bryn Mawr College in the US in 1981. During a fellowship form 1982-1992 at Stanford University's Hoover Institution, he published on Cold‑War strategy, German political culture, and Nordic security. He has been a visiting fellow and lecturer at Gonville & Caius College, Cambridge, fellow at the Danish Institute of International Affairs, an assistant professor of Classics at Aarhus University, and professor of the history of civilization at Boston University. He co‑directed the Center for the Study of America and the West at the Foreign Policy Research Institute in Philadelphia and remains a senior fellow of the Danish free‑market think tank CEPOS while writing a regular column for Jyllands‑Posten. His breakthrough book, From Plato to NATO: The Idea of the West and Its Opponents (1998), argues that Western success sprang from a hard‑edged fusion of Roman order, Germanic liberty, Christian morality, and Smithian economics, rather than being a single disgraceful arc from Greco‑Roman‐paganism to secular Enlightenment that bypassed the Middle Ages. Razib asks Gress how he would have written Plato to NATO today, more than 25 years later, and he says he would have emphasized Christianity's role in creating a unified Western culture out of Greco-Roman and Germanic diversity more. Gress also reiterates that he does not deny the Greek foundation of Western Civilization, but rather, his work was a corrective to a very thin and excessively motivated and partisan narrative that stripped out vast periods of European history. They also discuss Gress' own own peculiar identity, the son of an American, born to a Danish mother, raised in Denmark who converted to Catholicism as an adult, and how that all fits into a broader European identity. They also discuss the impact of mass immigration on the national identities of Europe in the last generation, and Gress' opinions as to the European future. Razib also asks Gress about the role that evolutionary ideas may have in shaping human history, and how his own views may have changed since From Plato to NATO. They also discuss when it is plausible to say that the West was a coherent idea, and whether the Protestant Reformation was the beginning of the end for the unitary civilization that was Latin Christendom.

Welcome to the fourth episode of our new and ongoing series: Fascism On Film. Each episode of this series, the Holmes Brothers look and review a film that has to do with fascism. During the episodes, the brothers look and see how the aspects and portrayal of fascism shown in the film relate to current and/or past events.On this episode of Fascism On Film, the Holmes Brothers discuss the Jean-Luc Godard film Le Petit Soldat. After helping start the French New Wave with his influential film Breathless (À bout de souffle), Godard was set to make this his second film in 1960. But due to censorship and its provocative look at the French-Algerian War plus scenes of torture, it was not released in cinemas until 1963. The film is set in Geneva, Switzerland and it has the Algerian War happening in the background. Actress Anna Karina worked with Jean-Luc Godard for the first time on this project. They had a bit of tumultuous relationship and were together for four years. The two of them made a bunch of films together. Pierrot Le Fou being their most memorable project amongst film fans and critics. We hope you enjoy this episode and stay tuned for more episodes of this Fascism On Film series.Be sure to check out our Monument Valley Film on our YouTube Channel, the famous location is featured briefly in one of the films.Chris Geier, who was on our last episode of our other series The Movies And Me, is an author and his book Silt is available here.Anders's screenwriter work can also be seen in the western The Outlaws, The films is a available to watch in America , parts of Scandinavia (e.g. Denmark, Finland) & the United Kingdom on Amazon and also Apple TV.

Episode 483 / Steven CoxSteven Cox (b. 1986, Aberdeen) is a Scottish artist who lives and works in Edinburgh, Scotland. He holds a BA in Painting from Duncan of Jordanstone College of Art & Design, University of Dundee, and an MA in Curating and Contemporary Art Theory from the University of Edinburgh.Cox is known for his vibrant abstract oil paintings, which explore materiality and mark-making. Over the past decade, he has developed a distinctive process involving the transfer of thick layers of oil paint onto canvas using plastic sheets. His work is deeply informed by an interest in the built environment, topography, and defaced surfaces, resulting in a visual language that oscillates between colour field painting and abstract expressionism. Cox is represented by Halsey McKay Gallery in New York. He has held numerous solo exhibitions internationally, including at Halsey McKay Gallery and A Hug From The Art World (New York, USA); Galerie Jérôme Pauchant (Paris, France); Annarumma Gallery (Naples, Italy); and Galleri Benoni (Copenhagen, Denmark). He has also exhibited in various international group exhibitions and artist residencies. His work has been featured in publications such as Modern Painters Magazine, ArtNews, ArtInfo, Wall Street International, Copenhagen Contemporary, Art F City, and Dust Magazine.More information: www.stevencox.co.ukInstagram: @studiostevencoxIn addition to his art practice, Steven Cox is the founder of Hunted Projects, a contemporary art gallery and curatorial platform based in Edinburgh. Established in 2011, Hunted Projects fosters unique collaborations with both emerging and established artists. Central to its ethos is a commitment to conducting in-depth interviews that provide insight into each artist's creative process and conceptual approach. These dialogues often inform the curation of site-specific solo and group exhibitions that amplify the artists' voices in compelling and innovative ways. More information: www.huntedprojects.comInstagram: @huntedprojects

Coucou everyone!You've heard the Disney versions — but the original tales? Not quite the same. In this episode of Europhile, we dive into the haunting, bizarre, and surprisingly spiritual world of Hans Christian Andersen. From a mermaid who gives everything up and turns into sea foam, to a thumb-sized girl nearly forced to marry a mole, to a mysterious Snow Queen who's more misunderstood than evil - these are not the stories you thought you knew. No happy endings. Just heartbreak, symbolism, and some of the darkest plots in European fairy tale history. Catherine then tells us about the Scandiavian concept of Logam.

Spoiler alert—they're not.Whether you're a new content creator, a seasoned travel influencer, or just wondering how to grow on Instagram without losing your mind, this episode will help you reconnect with the humans behind the numbers.

Joining me from Copenhagen, Denmark, Sabine H. grew up in a culture in which alcohol is both ubiquitous and deeply ingrained in social life. She never considered drinking as the cause of her problems until well into her forties. By then, the ruinous effects of her drinking had supplanted Sabine's diminishing ability to mask her growing alcohol abuse and other mental health issues. The fame, money, and lofty positions she had attained as a highly functional alcoholic conflicted with the self-loathing and disdain she felt deep inside. As the disease progressed and her Sabine's life began to unravel. Despite her need for help, she nonetheless became an expert at hiding her problems. Naturally, she found little help or support from those with whom she worked. By the time she took a month's sick-leave to both drink and work out her problems, she came up miserably empty. With utter despair eroding her desire to live, Sabine finally found the hand of AA reaching out to her. She entered the Program a little more than two years ago, clawing her way past preconceived notions and self-doubts toward the middle of the herd. Since then, Sabine has embraced AA wholeheartedly, doing the work she was instructed to do. She even demonstrated the progress she had achieved by recently leaving her stress-ridden, booze-soaked corporate career to work as a counselor at a rehab facility. I feel you will be inspired and encouraged by what Sabine has to share, especially if you're relatively young in sobriety. Hers is a story that bears out the international appeal of Alcoholics Anonymous to those who reach out for help. So no matter where you are around the world, please enjoy the next hour or so with my friend and AA sister, Sabine H. If you've enjoyed my AA Recovery Interviews series, have a listen to “Alcoholics Anonymous: The Story of How More Than One Hundred Men Have Recovered From Alcoholism”. This is the word-for-word, cover-to-cover reading of the First Edition of the Big Book, published in 1939. It's a comfortable, meaningful, and engaging way to listen to the Big Book anytime, anyplace. Have a free listen at Audible, i-Tunes, or Amazon.  I also invite you to check out my latest audio book, Lost Stories of the Big Book, 30 Original Stories Missing from the 3rd and 4th Editions of Alcoholics Anonymous. It's an engaging audiobook I narrated to bring these stories to life for AA members who've never seen them. These timeless testimonials were originally cut to make room for newer stories in the 3rd and 4th Editions. But their vitally important messages of hope are as meaningful today as when they were first published. Many listeners will hear these stories for the first time. Lost Stories of the Big Book is available on Audible, Amazon, and iTunes. It's also available as a Kindle book and in Paperback from Amazon if you'd like to read along with the audio.

China ranks second globally in STEM education development, trailing only the United States, according to a new index released on Sunday by the Tongji University STEM Education think tank in Shanghai. 上海同济大学 STEM 教育智库周日发布的一项新指数显示，中国在 STEM 教育发展方面位居全球第二，仅次于美国。 The Global STEM Education Development Index 2025, billed as the world's first comprehensive evaluation tool for national and regional science, technology, engineering and mathematics education development, placed the US in the top position with 86.50 points. China followed closely with 85.46 points. Switzerland, Singapore and Denmark rounded out the top five countries. 《2025 全球 STEM 教育发展指数》被誉为全球首个针对国家和地区科学、技术、工程与数学教育发展的综合评估工具。该指数中，美国以 86.50 分位居榜首，中国以 85.46 分紧随其后，瑞士、新加坡和丹麦跻身前五。 The index, developed with academic guidance from the Chinese Society of Educational Development Strategy and data from Elsevier, systematically assessed the STEM education development levels of 40 major countries and regions worldwide. It established 22 indicators across three dimensions: policy and resources, educational processes, and outcomes and impacts, aiming to provide a scientific benchmark for optimizing national STEM education strategies.该指数在全国教育发展战略学会的学术指导下编制，数据来源于爱思唯尔（Elsevier），系统评估了全球 40 个主要国家和地区的 STEM 教育发展水平。指数从政策与资源、教育过程、成果与影响三个维度设置了 22 项指标，旨在为优化各国 STEM 教育战略提供科学基准。 A representative from Tongji University highlighted the increasing global technological competition, stating that STEM education has become a core pillar supporting national innovation capacity and high-quality development. 同济大学一位代表强调，全球科技竞争日益激烈，STEM 教育已成为支撑国家创新能力和高质量发展的核心支柱。 The release of the index is a direct response to a guideline jointly published in January by the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China and the State Council, which called for deepening international STEM education cooperation and creating internationally influential indexes and reports. 该指数的发布是对今年 1 月中共中央、国务院联合印发的一份指导意见的直接响应，意见中呼吁深化 STEM 教育国际合作，打造具有国际影响力的指数和报告。 Further underscoring international recognition of China's STEM practices is the establishment of UNESCO's first Category 1 Center outside Europe and North America — the International Institute for STEM Education — in Shanghai. 联合国教科文组织在上海设立了国际 STEM 教育研究所，这是该组织在欧美以外地区设立的首个一类中心，进一步彰显了国际社会对中国 STEM 教育实践的认可。 The US' top ranking was attributed to its strong institutional and resource advantages, particularly in education funding as a percentage of GDP, its per-student expenditure and abundant education resources. 美国之所以位居榜首，得益于其强大的制度和资源优势，尤其是在教育经费占 GDP 比例、生均教育支出以及丰富的教育资源方面。 China, despite a relative gap in per capita resources, excelled in the "educational processes"dimension. Its outstanding performance in teachers' STEM competency scores, results from the Programme for International Student Assessment, or PISA, competition achievements and large-scale STEM graduate output helped offset these resource disparities. 中国尽管在人均资源方面存在相对差距，但在 “教育过程” 维度表现突出。其在教师 STEM 能力评分、国际学生评估项目（PISA）成绩、竞赛成果以及大规模 STEM 毕业生输出等方面的优异表现，弥补了这些资源差距。 Among emerging economies, India produced the world's largest number of STEM graduates at 3.34 million. However, its per-student funding amounted to only 17 percent of US levels, leading to a lower overall ranking of 30th place. 在新兴经济体中，印度的 STEM 毕业生数量全球最多，达 334 万人。但该国生均教育经费仅为美国的 17%，导致其总体排名较低，位列第 30 位。 The report emphasized that high proportions of education funding in GDP and per-student expenditure provide ample hardware support for research and teaching, fostering a virtuous cycle between basic research and talent cultivation. It also validated the significant impact of industry-academia-research collaboration and open international cooperation on the efficiency of STEM research output translation. 报告强调，教育经费占 GDP 比例高、生均教育支出高，能为科研和教学提供充足的硬件支持，促进基础研究与人才培养之间的良性循环。报告还证实，产学研合作以及开放的国际合作对 STEM 研究成果转化效率具有显著影响。 In past international assessments, Chinese students have demonstrated strong performance. The 2018 PISA, hosted every three years by the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development, found that 15-year-olds in Beijing, Shanghai and the provinces of Jiangsu and Zhejiang ranked No 1 in all three core subjects — reading, science and mathematics — achieving the highest Level 4 rating. While China did not participate in the 2022 PISA test, it has consistently been among the top scorers. 在过去的国际评估中，中国学生表现优异。经济合作与发展组织每三年举办一次 PISA 测试，2018 年的测试显示，北京、上海、江苏、浙江的 15 岁学生在阅读、科学、数学三个核心科目中均排名第一，达到最高的 4 级水平。尽管中国未参加 2022 年 PISA 测试，但此前一直位居高分行列。 Domestically, China is prioritizing AI education. A recent document issued by the Ministry of Education outlines a tiered AI education system covering all levels of primary and secondary education. The system will guide students from basic cognitive understanding in primary school to deeper analysis in middle school and applied innovation in high school. At the higher education level, the development of artificial intelligence education at universities has been a priority. 在国内，中国正优先发展人工智能教育。教育部近期发布的一份文件规划了覆盖中小学各学段的分级人工智能教育体系。该体系将引导学生在小学阶段形成基础认知，初中阶段进行深入分析，高中阶段开展应用创新。在高等教育层面，高校人工智能教育的发展已成为重点。 Since 2018, when the first 35 Chinese universities introduced undergraduate AI programs, the field has expanded significantly, with over 626 institutions nationwide now offering AI-related degrees. 自 2018 年中国首批 35 所高校开设人工智能本科专业以来，该领域发展显著，目前全国已有 626 所院校开设人工智能相关专业。 STEM /stem/ 科学（Science）、技术（Technology）、工程（Engineering）、数学（Mathematics）的缩写 index /ˈɪndeks/ 指数，指标 competency /ˈkɒmpɪtənsi/ 能力，胜任力 collaboration /kəˌlæbəˈreɪʃn/ 合作，协作

Through most of history, monarchs wielded unlimited political and military power, while their Queens and consorts were in charge of producing heirs and ruling the hearts of the people. Since the fall of feudalism, the 10 remaining hereditary monarchs of Europe have lost their unchecked authority. But their spouses' so called ‘soft powers' of hosting diplomats, supporting charities and greeting the public are more important than ever. And they look fabulous doing it! Let's meet the Queens consort of Belgium, The Netherlands, Norway, Spain, Sweden, and the United Kingdom, the Grand duchess of Luxembourg, and the Princess of Monaco. We'll also meet the Prince consort of Denmark and the Princess of Liechtenstein who have both recently died.

This is the third in our series of episodes on Jonathan Haidt's book The Anxious Generation. In Part 1, we looked at the evidence for the teen 'mental health crisis.' In Part 2, we reviewed the evidence for whether social media is causing the so-called 'teen mental health crisis. In this episode, we begin looking at what to do about the effects of phones on kids - starting with school cell phone bans. Phone bans are spreading like wildfire across America, with 21 states either studying or already enforcing restrictions, up from none just a few years ago. But before you advocate for - or against - a ban at your child's school, you need to hear what the research actually reveals. This episode examines real studies from Denmark, England, and Hungary, plus the eye-opening results from schools using those tamper-proof Yonder pouches that promise to solve everything. You'll discover why the "golden age" of unsupervised childhood play that experts want us to return to wasn't actually golden for most kids. More importantly, you'll learn what's really driving students to their phones: unmet needs for choice, agency, and genuine connection. Through a fascinating deep-dive into one teacher's blog post about his school's phone ban, you'll see how current approaches may be missing the point entirely, and what students themselves say would actually help them engage more in school. Which states are banning cell phones in schools? 21 states are currently studying or have already enforced cell phone bans, including Florida, Louisiana, Virginia, Indiana, Oklahoma, North Dakota, and New York. Are cell phone bans in schools effective for improving academic performance? Research shows mixed results with only tiny improvements on test scores, and most studies don't control for other factors that could explain the changes. Does banning phones in school improve students' mental health? Studies from multiple countries found no significant improvements in student anxiety, depression, or overall wellbeing from cell phone restrictions. Are cell phone bans in schools a good idea? The evidence suggests that school cell phone bans address symptoms rather than root causes - students turn to phones because their needs for autonomy and connection aren't being met. What happens when schools try to enforce cell phones being banned in schools? Students find creative workarounds: stabbing through security pouches, buying unlock magnets, bringing decoy phones, and creating underground phone-sharing economies. Why do students want their phones during school hours? Research shows students use phones to meet basic psychological needs for choice, agency, and genuine connection that traditional classrooms often fail to provide. What you'll learn in this episode The real data on school cell phone ban effectiveness - examining studies from Denmark, England, Hungary, and the U.S. that reveal surprising results about academic and mental health outcomes Which states are leading the cell phone ban movement - a breakdown of the 21 states implementing or studying restrictions, from Florida's pioneering ban to New York's upcoming policies...

Segment 1: Interview with Monzy Merza - There is a Right and Wrong Way to use AI in the SOC In the rush to score AI funding dollars, a lot of startups build a basic wrapper around existing generative AI services like those offered by OpenAI and Anthropic. As a result, these services are expensive, and don't satisfy many security operations teams' privacy requirements. This is just the tip of the iceberg when discussing the challenges of using AI to aid the SOC. In this interview, we'll dive into the challenge of finding security vendors that care about security, the need for transparency in products, the evolving shared responsibility model, and other topics related to solving security operations challenges. Segment 2: Topic Segment - How much AI is too much AI? In the past few weeks, I've talked to several startup founders who are running into buyers that aren't allowed to purchase their products, even though they want them and prefer them over the competition. Why? No AI and they're not allowed to buy. Segment 3: News Segment Finally, in the enterprise security news, We cover the latest funding The Trustwave saga comes to a positive end Android 16 could help you evade law enforcement Microsoft is kicking 3rd party AV out of the kernel Giving AI some personality (and honesty) Log4shell canaries reveal password weirdness Denmark gives citizens copyright to their own faces to fight AI McDonald's has an AI whoopsie Ingram Micro has a ransomware whoopsie Drama in the trailer lock industry All that and more, on this episode of Enterprise Security Weekly.

A new micro-credential course to encourage sustainability in the medtech, pharma and public sector in Ireland has been launched at University of Galway. The Green Labs initiative has been spearheaded since 2019 by Dr Una FitzGerald, Associate Professor of Biomedical Engineering in the School of Engineering and a Principal Investigator within CÚRAM, the Research Ireland Centre for Medical Devices. Green Labs develop medtech sustainability course The new 10-week microcredential programme is aimed at Ireland's extensive laboratory industry, including medtech and pharma, healthcare and science and the research sector and builds on the success and impact of the Green Labs initiative, which aims to reduce the environmental impact of laboratory practices. Dr Una FitzGerald said: "Once I took on board the considerable contribution that sustainable lab practices can make to global efforts to reduce GHGs and different kinds of waste, I felt compelled to act, because I supervise and teach many different cohorts of students. I feel I have a duty to do all possible to mitigate the climate and biodiversity crisis and feel fortunate that I am in a position to help. "As Ireland's medtech and pharma sectors continue to grow, so too does the responsibility to operate in an environmentally sustainable fashion. Laboratory testing is a crucial part of operations in these organisations, as well as for hospital and environmental testing - just think of how many lab tests are require to diagnose disease or to prove that the water you are drinking is safe. Medical device manufacturers also need lab tests to prove that implantable devices are sterile, and pharma companies use labs characterise the properties of drugs." The green labs journey commenced in 2019 with CÚRAM becoming the first laboratory in Europe certified as 'Green' by American non-profit, My Green Lab. Meeting this standard required raising awareness of the impact of lab work on the environment and prompted efforts to reduce plastic waste, energy and water usage and adopt green principles of synthetic and analytic chemistry. One fact learned was that a single ultra-low temperature freezer, used to store lab samples, uses as much energy as the average household. In 2020, Dr FitzGerald developed a course module for postgraduates on green lab principles and practice, which more than 170 students have taken to date, including online at universities in England, Scotland, Germany and Denmark. On Earth Day in 2022, Irish Green Labs (IGL) was launched by Dr Fitzgerald, in collaboration with Sustainable Energy Association of Ireland and Dublin City University to promote sustainable methods within public and private laboratories on the whole island of Ireland. The new online microcredential programme Green Labs Principles and Practice, will go further to address the lack of awareness of the impact that lab practices and behaviours have on the environment. Employees in corporate and public sector are being targeted through this course and the first 20 places are funded through Springboard. The first students enrol in September. Microcredential courses are short and accredited to meet the demands of learners, enterprise and organisations, created by Irish Universities Association (IUA) partner universities in consultation with industry and enterprise, under the MicroCreds project. Green Labs Principles and Practice will allow employees to examine how the organisation of, and practices in, scientific laboratories can be reformed to reduce their environmental footprint and be established on a more sustainable basis. The Irish Green Labs network is run on a voluntary basis, supporting more than 37 organisations within the public and private sectors, including all the higher education institutes, the Environmental Protection Agency, 10 hospitals and seven companies. Dr Fitzgerald's work in this area ultimately led to inclusion of sustainable lab practices in Taighde Eireann/Research Ireland's Climate...

In today's podcast, we're heading slightly beyond the Tudor world — north to Scotland — to uncover the story of a young queen who deserves far more recognition than she gets. On this day in 1486, Queen Margaret of Denmark, consort of James III of Scotland, died at just 30 years old. But her brief life left a permanent mark on British history. Because of Margaret, Orkney and Shetland became — and remained — part of Scotland. A forgotten dowry, a pledged territory, and a queen who quietly changed the map of the British Isles. But there's so much more to her than diplomacy.  Join me as I delve into the fascinating story of Margaret of Denmark — her Danish roots, her turbulent royal marriage, her influence on Scottish politics, and the tragic mystery of her early death. Had you heard of Margaret before? What do you think of her impact? Let me know in the comments below! And don't forget to like, subscribe, and ring the bell for more history videos every week! #OnThisDay #MargaretOfDenmark #ScottishHistory #QueenMargaret #Orkney #Shetland #TudorEra #MedievalQueens #JamesIII #JamesIV #WomenInHistory #ClaireRidgway #AnneBoleynFiles

There is a growing issue with AI deepfakes on the internet. One example over the last year involved singer, Taylor Swift, when inappropriate images were created of her by AI and it spread through X, then most recently there was deep fake audio of Secretary of State's Marco Rubio. Denmark may have the key to combat this rise in fakes as they hope to bring copyright protections to people's faces. Greg and Holly go in-depth about this practice and how legally this would be a way to hold those who do make deepfakes accountable in court.

SHOW NOTES: •We should avoid generations stereotyping. •We're really better off than we're led to believe. •Try living in Denmark or Iceland. •Magic bullets won't help. •Can a culture survive on gambling? •There is extreme unhappiness in the land. •It is exacerbated by the internet. •People would rather blame themselves, the boss, or the system rather than accept accountability. •Conspiracies and claims of catastrophes abound. •Self-absorption has become a pastime. •Selfishness has grown to not even wanting to have kids. •What I learned growing up having to challenges without safe havens and trigger warnings. •What I told my son.

Copenhagen Suborbitals is the world's only volunteer-run, crowdfunded space program. Based in Copenhagen, the group's 70 volunteers are building a DIY spacecraft to send a person to suborbital space.In this episode, we meet the group's parachute systems lead, Mads Stenfatt, who shares the project's origins, its shoestring budget (“10% of NASA's coffee budget”), and the challenges of launching from international waters. He reflects on his journey from skydiver to potential astronaut.The conversation highlights creativity, community, and Denmark's unique culture of volunteerism, proving even audacious dreams can begin in unlikely places.Visit copenhagensuborbitals.com for more information.

Are we preparing people as quickly as we're preparing machines? That's the uncomfortable question at the heart of Coursera's 2025 Global Skills Report, and the starting point for my conversation with Nikolaz Foucaud, Coursera's Managing Director for EMEA. As the UK jumps more than 20 spots in global skills rankings and countries like Singapore and Denmark widen the gap with lifelong learning cultures, we explore why mindset may be as important as access when it comes to reskilling for an AI-driven economy. Nikolaz explains how the newly introduced AI Maturity Index reflects the growing urgency around workforce readiness and why governments and employers need to stop thinking in degrees and start investing in micro-credentials that reflect what learners and businesses actually need. We also unpack the gender gap in AI learning, the alarming lack of growth in cybersecurity skills, and why economic pressure often drives the highest levels of completion and success. As institutions, employers, and individuals try to catch up with the pace of technological change, what will it take to build a learning culture that keeps momentum? And are we measuring the right things when we talk about readiness? Let me know what you think.

Send us a text message and tell us your thoughts.Freedom wasn't granted—it was seized through blood, sweat, and unwavering resistance. Across the Dutch and Danish Caribbean colonies, enslaved Africans fought against brutal systems of oppression that are often overshadowed in mainstream historical narratives focused on British, Spanish, and French colonial powers.When thousands gathered in St. Croix on July 2nd, 1848, led by freedom fighter General Buddhoe (Moses Gottlieb), they weren't asking politely for their liberation. They threatened to burn Frederiksted to the ground, forcing the Danish governor to declare immediate emancipation. This powerful act of collective resistance is why July 3rd remains sacred in the U.S. Virgin Islands, commemorated through Freedom Week celebrations that honor ancestral sacrifice and triumph.Meanwhile, in the Dutch Caribbean territories like Suriname, Curaçao, and Aruba, emancipation arrived decades later in 1863—and even then with the cruel stipulation that the formerly enslaved would be required to work an additional decade on the plantations where they had suffered. This delayed freedom, finally realized in 1873, is now celebrated as "Keti Koti" (the chain is broken), a powerful testament to resilience against Dutch colonial brutality. The colonial footprints of the Netherlands and Denmark—alongside brief periods of Swedish and Portuguese occupation—remain etched in Caribbean legal systems, languages, demographics, and collective consciousness. By amplifying these overlooked histories, we honor the full spectrum of Caribbean resistance and recognize that every Emancipation Day represents a hard-won victory by those who refused to accept bondage as their fate. Our ancestors' struggle for dignity continues to illuminate our path forward.Support the showConnect with Strictly Facts - Instagram | Facebook | Twitter | LinkedIn | YouTube | Website Looking to read more about the topics covered in this episode?
