Podcasts about detractors

Detractors of modern long-range hunting methods call such hunters "deer snipers." But is long-range shooting at game bad? Or good? We're joined by Ron Spomer in this episode, and we hash out the various facets—virtuous and evil alike—of shooting long on big game. Plus, of course, we regularly get off track and swap great hunting stories and tales of our favorite rifles.

Tell us what you think of the show! Welcome to the premier edition of the Factor This Policycast, a brand-new podcast partnership with national industry association Advanced Energy United, tackling the legislation, rulemaking, and market design that matter to clean energy leaders.Hosted by Factor This content director and Emmy-Award winning journalist Paul Gerke, this series of discussions will feature voices from across the energy policy landscape and spotlight issues shaping the evolution of our electric grid.The first topic is one that you may have spotted in recent headlines: competitive transmission solicitation. It's no secret that large-scale, critical electrical infrastructure projects like high-voltage transmission lines cost a LOT to build and take some time to come online.About 15 years ago, the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, or FERC, mandated that utilities competitively bid out such projects, but that mandate isn't being enforced, for reasons we'll get into on the program. New data points to tremendous benefits from competitive transmission, though, including billions of dollars ultimately saved by ratepayers. Detractors argue the bidding process delays timelines and subjects projects to hidden costs, and a group of Midwest utilities has even asked FERC to halt bidding in MISO and SPP. On this episode of the podcast, Factor This's Paul Gerke is joined by Caitlin Marquis, managing director at Advanced Energy United, and Paul Cicio, chair of the Electricity Transmission Competition Coalition (ETCC). Both are advocates for competitive transmission and share findings to support their case. They discuss that utility request to ban competition outright, talk about FERC's role in all of this, and explore the finer points complicating broader transmission build-out- at a time we really need it.New episodes of the Factor This Policycast go live at 6 am ET every other Thursday.Want to make a suggestion for This Week in Cleantech?

On the morning of April 21, Trump posted an image of eight women on Truth Social, claimed they were Iranian dissidents set to be executed, and demanded that Tehran release them. Detractors, and several Iranian sources, claimed the women were AI-generated. A day later Trump claimed the women would no longer be executed and that he'd saved them.The truth is that the women are real and many are still in danger. Trump's post made real Iranian women who protested the Iranian regime appear fake. The story speaks to a moment we're in where it's become impossible to parse truth from lies online. This was already difficult before AI-generated pictures and video. Now it feels impossible.On this episode of Angry Planet, Mahsa Alimardani is here to tell us the story.

There's something especially surprising about eating what you expect to be sweet, only to discover too late that it's bitter. Interestingly, the Bible uses this idea of bitterness to describe an attitude that has turned away from joy and hope because of real or perceived hardships in life.This sermon will explore what Scripture teaches about the problem of bitterness—what causes it and how citizens of the kingdom are called to put it away.A sermon given by Greg Chandler on March 22, 2026.

Welcome to episode #1026 of Thinking With Mitch Joel (formerly Six Pixels of Separation). At a time when strategy has become a kind of corporate theater… carefully crafted presentations, ambitious roadmaps and bold declarations that rarely survive first contact with reality… Kevin Ertell has spent a career focused on the harder question: why execution so often fails. Kevin is the Founder and CEO of Mistere Advisory and a veteran operator whose three decades of experience include leading large-scale retail and e-commerce operations at global brands like Nike, Sur La Table, Borders, and Tower Records. Over the years he has developed a reputation as a straight-talking advisor who helps leaders turn complexity into clarity and ambition into measurable results. His work spans industries including technology, healthcare, retail, consumer goods and manufacturing, where he focuses on helping organizations align teams, simplify priorities and build the operating rhythms required to deliver on their plans. In his new book, The Strategy Trap - Why Companies Fail at Execution and How to Get It Right, Kevin draws on decades of frontline experience to tackle a frustrating reality of modern business: most strategies don't fail on paper… they fail in the real world. Through practical frameworks like his Six Cs of Execution (Co-creation, Clarity, Capacity, Communication, Coordination and Coaching) he argues that strategy and execution must begin in the same room, with teams co-creating the plan and committing to disciplined follow-through. Kevin explores how incentives shape behavior, why organizations must slow down to create clarity before accelerating, and how leadership cultures built around coaching and collaboration can unlock real momentum. Grounded in operational experience rather than theory, his work reframes strategy not as a planning exercise but as a team sport that requires alignment, accountability and relentless focus on execution.

Many former prosecutors and legal analysts have argued that the federal government had a viable pathway to pursue a Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations (RICO) case against Jeffrey Epstein long before his 2019 arrest. RICO was designed to dismantle coordinated criminal enterprises, particularly those built on patterns of exploitation, coercion, financial facilitation, and enabling networks. Epstein's operation, as described in court filings and civil suits, allegedly involved recruiters, schedulers, property managers, financial intermediaries, and individuals who helped move victims across state and international lines. That structure—if proven—resembled the type of continuing enterprise RICO was created to target. The statute would have allowed prosecutors to frame the conduct not as isolated acts of abuse but as a coordinated system sustained over years. It also would have opened the door to broader conspiracy charges, asset forfeiture, and pressure on associates who may have participated in or facilitated the scheme. Critics contend that using RICO could have forced earlier cooperation from insiders and exposed the full architecture of the network rather than focusing narrowly on individual trafficking counts.The fact that RICO was never deployed in a comprehensive way has fueled ongoing criticism about prosecutorial strategy and institutional will. Instead of pursuing a sweeping enterprise case, authorities in 2008 negotiated a controversial non-prosecution agreement in Florida that limited federal exposure and shielded potential co-conspirators from broader scrutiny. By declining to test a RICO theory—at least publicly—prosecutors avoided the evidentiary complexity and political risk that often come with enterprise prosecutions involving powerful figures. Detractors argue that this narrower approach fragmented accountability and treated the case as a series of discrete crimes rather than a sustained criminal structure. Whether due to caution, resource constraints, or deference to political sensitivities, the absence of a RICO strategy has become part of the broader debate over how aggressively Epstein's network was pursued. For critics, the missed opportunity symbolizes a larger failure to fully confront the systemic dimensions of the operation.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Welcome to The Times of Israel's Daily Briefing, your 20-minute audio update on what's happening in Israel, the Middle East and the Jewish world. Editor David Horovitz joins host Amanda Borschel-Dan for today's episode. US President Donald Trump on Tuesday denied that Israel dragged the US into war with Iran, insisting that if anything, the opposite could be true and that he felt Iran was going to attack first. These remarks come as politicians and media influencers on both sides of the US aisle condemn "Israel's war" and point their fingers at the Jewish state. In the first half of the program, we take a deep dive into Iran's greater existential threat to the Mideast -- and the world at large. Which nations appear to start internalizing that the extremist Islamist nation may actually do what it threatens it will? In the second half, we talk about the opportunity afforded at this time for Iranians to rise up and change their regime. It would be, posits Horovitz, more possible to see some form of "total victory" against the terror regime, as opposed to wiping out Hezbollah in Lebanon and Hamas in Gaza. Check out The Times of Israel's ongoing liveblog for more updates.

Kingdom citizenship is a serious challenge; it calls one to examine every thought and action, aligning them with the values and mission of the King. It also demands careful consideration of every word spoken—and with the average American speaking over 13,000 words a day, that demand is especially daunting. One area of keen interest to the King is how His people speak of others; He forbids any form of hurtful language, including the pervasive sin of gossip. This coming Sunday, a sermon entitled “Kingdom Detractors: Gossip” will explore God's teaching on this topic and offer practical thoughts on how His people can refrain from such talk.A sermon given by Greg Chandler on February 1, 2026.

Stijn Schmitz welcomes Joel Salatin to the show. Joel Salatin is self described Christian Libertarian Environmentalist Capitalist Lunatic Farmer. The episode explores current trends and challenges in agricultural commodities, with a particular focus on beef, poultry, and farming practices. Salatin discusses the significant challenges facing the beef industry, including a severe drought in the southern United States, an aging farming population, and high entry costs for young farmers. The US beef cattle herd is currently at its lowest point since 1950, despite population doubling. This, combined with dietary trends like paleo and keto diets, has created unprecedented market pressure on beef prices. The conversation delves into the problematic nature of industrial farming practices. Salatin critiques the current agricultural system, highlighting how it has pushed biological systems beyond their natural capacity. He emphasizes the importance of creating habitats that allow animals to express their natural characteristics, contrasting this with large-scale industrial farming approaches. A key trend Salatin sees emerging is the “homestead tsunami” – a growing movement of small-scale farming and backyard food production. In 2020 alone, two million backyard chicken flocks started in the US. He believes this smallholder revolution could gradually challenge the industrial agricultural complex, aided by improved distribution logistics and direct-to-consumer online marketing. Regarding his own farm, Polyphase Farm, Salatin explains their approach of diversification and ecological farming. They focus on perennial systems, extensive composting, and creating a farm with multiple economic enterprises. The farm now supports 22 full-time employees and includes a stewardship program to launch young farmers. Salatin predicts future challenges including water scarcity, increasing veterinary problems in livestock industries, and continued pressure from industrial farming models that exceed their efficiency. However, he remains optimistic about the potential for small-scale, ecologically sound farming practices to create meaningful change in agricultural production.

Admirers hail him as the world’s most famous farmer, the high priest of the pasture, and Virginia’s most eclectic thinker since Thomas Jefferson. Detractors label him a bio-terrorist, Typhoid Mary, charlatan, and starvation advocate. Armed with high school and college debate trophies, 16 published books, and a thriving multi-generational family farm, Salatin draws on decades of food, farming, and fantasy to captivate global audiences. Equally at home herding cows or keynoting for Wall Street CEOs, he covers profitable regenerative farming techniques alongside cultural debates like orthodoxy versus heresy.A master wordsmith, he shifts crowds from laughter to tears, frustration to hope, earning frequent standing ovations. He calls his talks “performances,” thriving on Q&A interaction: “I love the interaction,” he says. Salatin co-owns Polyface Farm in Swoope, Virginia—showcased in Michael Pollan’s New York Times bestseller Omnivore's Dilemma and the award-winning documentary Food, Inc. The operation serves over 5,000 families, 10 restaurants, and five retail outlets with innovative products like salad bar beef, pigaerator pork, pastured poultry, and forestry goods. It ships nationwide, blending local roots with scalable business reach. When not speaking, Salatin farms hands-on, mentoring youth, inspiring visitors, and championing regenerative food systems. He’s editor of The Stockman Grass Farmer, the grass farming movement’s foundational voice, and pens columns like “Confessions of a Steward” for Plain Values magazine, “Homestead Abundance” for Homestead Living, pieces for Homesteaders of America, and monthly contributions to Manward e-magazine. His blog, Musings from the Lunatic Farmer, and co-hosted podcast BEYOND LABELS with Dr. Sina McCullough, extend his influence. A staple on radio and podcasts for preppers, homesteaders, ecological farmers, and foodies, Salatin blends practical, can-do entrepreneurial solutions with passionate sustainability advocacy.

A growing rift has emerged within the MAGA movement as frustrations intensify over the administration's handling of the Epstein files and what supporters view as broken promises and deliberate misdirection. Influential MAGA personalities who once championed transparency are now openly attacking their own base, accusing ordinary supporters of disloyalty simply for demanding answers regarding Jeffrey Epstein and the long-promised release of related documents. Critics argue that the movement's leadership is attempting to redirect blame and silence its strongest advocates, branding dissenters as traitors rather than addressing legitimate concerns about accountability and the integrity of the investigation. The backlash has highlighted deepening distrust among former allies and exposed widening fractures that were once concealed beneath slogans and unity-themed messaging.Central to the conflict is former President Donald Trump's escalating public feud with Congressman Thomas Massie and the broader shift from outsider populism to aggressive internal policing. Detractors claim that Trump's continued refusal to release the Epstein files, combined with public attacks on longstanding supporters and allies, signals the decline of what was once a powerful political force. Political observers describe the behavior as characteristic of movements entering collapse: lashing out at internal critics, redefining loyalty tests, and prioritizing personal preservation over promised reforms. Many former supporters now argue that instead of dismantling political corruption, the movement has become indistinguishable from it, with Trump increasingly portrayed not as a reformer, but as a participant in the elite system he vowed to expose.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

Ozempic continues to spark headlines as its role in weight loss becomes more central to discussion in both medical circles and popular culture over the past week. Driven by ongoing demand and complex debate, the medication, originally developed for managing type two diabetes, is being increasingly prescribed as an aid for weight reduction. Recent news coverage demonstrates that the public conversation about Ozempic's impact is not slowing down. One of the most prominent voices weighing in this week has been Oprah Winfrey, who has offered candid reflections on her own experiences with Ozempic and the accompanying social reactions.This week, Oprah Winfrey openly addressed her use of Ozempic, stating that the medication had been part of her recent weight loss journey. The disclosure provoked a surge of reaction, with many in the media and public responding to her admission. According to JB Press, Oprah was direct in acknowledging how Ozempic had contributed to her results and sincerely discussed the reasons behind her choice. She emphasized that her decision was informed not just by the desire for weight loss, but by a broader understanding of health, aging, and the pressures faced by individuals in the public eye. Oprah expressed that Ozempic helped her manage not only her physical appearance but also her relationship with food and ongoing health challenges.The admission generated considerable controversy, especially in social media circles and news outlets. AOL reports that Oprah faced criticism from some who accused her of taking what they described as the easy way out. Detractors argued that reliance on medication sidesteps the harder emotional and behavioral work of traditional weight loss approaches. Yet, others pointed out that access to new treatments like Ozempic can democratize health outcomes for people who have battled obesity and associated health issues for years. Notably, Oprah addressed the backlash with clarity, stating that individual health decisions are complex and personal, and that stigma can deter meaningful progress in addressing obesity.While much of the discussion this week has centered on celebrity use and cultural debate, medical professionals have continued to caution that Ozempic is not a substitute for healthy eating or exercise. They underscore that while it may curb appetite and support weight loss, it should be prescribed thoughtfully and monitored by a physician. New data has emerged suggesting that demand for Ozempic has increased during the past seven days, especially following endorsements by well-known personalities. This has prompted ongoing examination regarding accessibility, cost, and responsible use.The increased attention on Ozempic this week has also reignited questions about the long-term effects of its use. Medical experts, as quoted in several news sources, remind listeners that Ozempic is primarily intended for people with type two diabetes, and that off-label use must be scrutinized to prevent negative outcomes. They warn against seeking the medication without proper guidance and note that lifestyle change remains a crucial part of sustainable weight management. The FDA continues to evaluate the safety profile of these drugs as more data comes to light.Overall, the recent wave of coverage shows that Ozempic is at the heart of a rapidly evolving public conversation about medicine, body image, and social stigma. Oprah Winfrey's openness this week has made a significant impact, both in encouraging honest dialogue and in prompting critical reflection about how we perceive health and beauty in the modern era. The question of whether medical intervention for weight loss constitutes an easy fix or an important tool remains active, and the story continues to evolve as more individuals and experts join the discussion.Thanks for listening, please subscribe, and remember—this episode was brought to you by Quiet Please podcast networks.

In this episode, we touch on the Blue Jay heartbreak, and the resilience of the Senators as they navigate their own challenges.Section 1: The Blue Jays' Disheartening Exit The Jays faced a gut-wrenching end to their season, losing crucial games six and seven of the World Series. "I just couldn't believe it. So many opportunities to win game six, so many opportunities to win game seven," lamented Gregg Kennedy, reflecting the sentiment of many fans who felt the weight of what could have been. Steve Warne highlighted how the Jays thrived on clutch performances, such as George Springer's game-changing three-run homer in the Seattle series. Yet, in the critical moments of the World Series, the expected clutch hits were absent.Section 2: The Senators' Resilience Amidst Challenges While the Blue Jays faced disappointment, the Senators have been on a rollercoaster of their own. With a record of 4-1-1 over their last six games, the Senators have shown resilience, battling back in games even when they fall behind. "You are what your record says you are," Kennedy noted, acknowledging that while their record may not reflect their performance, they are still banking valuable points as they find their footingThe Senators faced a tough loss against the Montreal Canadiens, where defensive lapses led to missed opportunities. Drake Batherson has stepped up spectacularly in the absence of captain Brady Tkachuk. With 15 points in his first 10 games, Batherson's performance has been a source of hope for fans. Despite a critical mistake that led to an overtime loss, his contributions have been key.Section 3: The Eastern Conference Landscape As the Senators continue their season, the Eastern Conference stands out this year with every team above .500 in terms of points percentage. "It's amazing that the number one team in the Eastern Conference, the Montreal Canadiens, only has a six-point lead on the defending Stanley Cup champion Florida Panthers, who currently sit in last place," Warne remarked.

Mental health was already compromised before businesses and churches were shut down. The ongoing effects are all around us. Take note...

What is the fuss about ULA, the measure Los Angeles city voters approved in 2022? The debate over its impact may be more hotly contested today than it was when it was on the ballot.Measure ULA, dubbed “the mansion tax" by supporters, imposes a transfer tax on property sales above approximately $5 million. Funds go toward affordable housing production and homelessness prevention programs in the city. It's supporters say it is boosting production of affordable housing and keeping tenants housed, reducing homelessness. Detractors say it has had minimal impact on affordable housing, and is chilling production of affordable and market-rate housing, and putting a drag on the economy.A conversation about Measure ULA is a conversation about housing, about affordability, about homelessness prevention, about finance and taxation, about real estate market forces, and about the finer details of government regulation.

What mattered most for survivors of the Holocaust, indeed, what made their survival possible, was not only that the Allies had better ideas about democracy and civilization, though of course Britain, America, and the other Western Allies did. It was that they actually won the war. They defeated the Germans on the field of battle—on sea, land, and air, in the hills and in the streets. It's not enough for us to rest contentedly on the superiority of our ideas. We also have to fight. But at this moment, the fundamental political fact of the last 80 years—that it was an indispensable and untarnishable achievement for the Allies to have destroyed the Third Reich—is itself under revisionist assault. The Internet talk-show host Tucker Carlson last year promoted the podcaster Darryl Cooper, calling him “America's most honest historian,” and airing his claim that Winston Churchill was the “chief villain” of World War II who “escalated” what Hitler supposedly intended to be a limited conflict. As one of this episode's guests reports in the Wall Street Journal, when the Holocaust-denying podcaster Jake Shields polled his social-media followers about who they thought was “the biggest villain of World War II,” 40.3 percent chose Churchill over Hitler (25.3 percent) or Stalin (25.9 percent). Darryl Cooper or Jake Shields are teaching a new generation of Americans a grotesquely distorted view of our own history. To understand why that is, what can be done about it, and what's at stake for Jews and America, Mosaic's editor Jonathan Silver sat down Rabbi Meir Soloveichik and Andrew Roberts. Roberts is a distinguish historian and the author of more than twenty books. His 2018 biography of Churchill, Walking with Destiny, was the rare work that deserved all of the glowing praise it received, and there is perhaps no person living who knows more about the 20th century's greatest man than Roberts. On November 1, 2022, he was elevated to a peerage as Baron Roberts of Belgravia. Rabbi Soloveichik is the religious leader of Congregation Shearith Israel, the director of the Straus Center for Torah and Western Thought and Yeshiva University, and vice-chair of the U.S. Commission on International Religious Freedom. This conversation took place at a private event held for members of the Tikvah Society. You can learn more about its activities and how to join here.

A college student who debated Charlie Kirk on his campus tour says a lot of the popular right wing activist's beliefs crossed a line -- but his death is inarguably wrong.

GOP leaders across the country are rallying around redistricting efforts at the encouragement of President Donald Trump. Detractors say this move is an attempt to help President Trump avoid accountability and maintain a slim Republican majority. STLPR political correspondent Jason Rosenbaum talked with Representative Bob Onder of Missouri's third congressional district about the history of redistricting and what redrawing of district lines could mean for Missouri and Onder's own district in St. Charles.

Cult of Karen: Inside the Extremes of Her Supporters and Detractors An intoxicated woman. A dead police officer. A community split down the middle. What started as a tragic accident has spiraled into a full-blown war of public opinion, complete with viral conspiracy theories, witness intimidation, and phone dumps on army bases. In this chilling breakdown of the Karen Read case, psychotherapist and author Shavaun Scott helps unpack why average people have transformed into digital crusaders—camping outside courthouses, harassing witnesses, and clinging to narratives that might never be proven. What is it about this case that triggers such intense tribal loyalty? And how do internet echo chambers create alternate realities with devastating real-world consequences? From the psychology of conspiracies to the shady behavior of investigators, this conversation exposes how modern true crime isn't just about guilt or innocence—it's about identity. #karenread #karenreadtrial #johnokeefe #shavaunscott #truecrimepodcast #conspiracytheories #massachusettscrime #hiddenkillers #tonybruski #psychologyandcrime Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?  Check out our YouTube Channel. https://www.youtube.com/@hiddenkillerspod Instagram https://www.instagram.com/hiddenkillerspod/ Facebook https://www.facebook.com/hiddenkillerspod/ Tik-Tok https://www.tiktok.com/@hiddenkillerspod X Twitter https://x.com/tonybpod Listen Ad-Free On Apple Podcasts Here: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/true-crime-today-premium-plus-ad-free-advance-episode/id1705422872

Poor Judgement Or Intent To Destroy Detractors, What Karen Read's Actions Reveal What kind of person allegedly leaks autopsy photos, doxxes witnesses, and then wonders why people aren't lining up to buy her a sympathy card? In this deep dive into the twisted saga surrounding Karen Read, retired FBI Special Agent Robin Dreeke unpacks the bizarre and allegedly self-destructive relationship between Read and blogger "Turtleboy." With over 40 hours of recorded calls between them, it's less “strategic defense” and more “public therapy session meets content goldmine.” Dreeke offers psychological insight into how Read's apparent need for external validation may have collided head-on with Turtleboy's thirst for attention—resulting in a partnership that could be doing more harm than help. From the rabid loyalty of Read's core followers (who apparently treat due process like an optional side dish) to the prosecution's tightening strategy now that Proctor is offstage, we explore how all this could play with a jury already bombarded by chaos. And let's not forget the bigger question: when does poor judgment stop being poor and start looking a lot like guilty? Is Karen Read's alleged pattern of behavior simply a personality in free fall—or the roadmap to a conviction? #KarenRead #TrueCrimeToday #HiddenKillers #Turtleboy #CourtroomDrama #RobinDreeke #CrimeAndPsychology Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?
