Podcasts about Dignity

When Rob Scheer entered foster care at twelve, he carried his belongings in a trash bag. Years later, when children arrived at his own home carrying trash bags, he asked a question that became the heart of Comfort Cases: “How about some dignity?”Rob is a former foster youth, U.S. Navy veteran, adoptive dad, author, speaker, and the founder of Comfort Cases. In this conversation, he shares what foster care, homelessness, parenting, and building a family taught him about belonging.Jeff and Rob talk about behaviour as communication, the moments when a child's behaviour hurts even when you understand the why, and the importance of separating the person from what is happening in the moment. They also talk about the danger of letting a diagnosis, a file, or somebody else's prediction become the whole story.This is not a conversation that promises an easy path. It is a conversation about dignity, staying connected, and continuing to see the person when systems only see the problem.Resources mentioned in this episodeComfort Caseshttps://comfortcases.org/Learn about hosting a Comfort Cases packing partyhttps://comfortcases.org/packingparty/Volunteer, host a donation drive, or support Comfort Caseshttps://comfortcases.org/volunteer/Contact Comfort Cases about speaking, partnerships, or bringing the work to your areahttps://comfortcases.org/contact/Rob's memoir, A Forever Family: Fostering Change One Child at a Timehttps://comfortcases.org/more-ways-to-support-us/Listen to Rob's Fostering Change podcasthttps://comfortcases.org/podcasts/Watch Rob and Reece in Somewhat Familiar, Season 1, Episode 5: Foster Familieshttps://tv.apple.com/us/episode/foster-families/umc.cmc.65ir2q0datcn490zoe79z3s02?showId=umc.cmc.1onsp08upednzqqu3esowinwdWatch Rob and Reece in Dads, directed by Bryce Dallas Howardhttps://tv.apple.com/ca/movie/dads/umc.cmc.5voyewgcndqj0a3i9mp7hbloqWant to be around caregivers who understand this world?

In this episode of the Prolonged Field Care Podcast, Dennis sits down with Alex, CEO of Shannon Mechanics, a Ukrainian company that has produced more than 8,000 drag stretchers and over 330,000 immobilization splints for the front line since the full-scale invasion.Alex shares the raw story of how the company started with scrap materials and construction-store aluminum during the early chaos of 2022, scaled production while operating physically underground with independent power and battery-powered equipment, and refined products based on real soldier feedback. They discuss the BM splint (a more rigid, radiolucent alternative designed for Ukrainian conditions), the philosophy behind their rollable plastic drag stretcher optimized for one-person extraction under drone threat and complex terrain, quality control under resource constraints, the transition from pure volunteering to a sustainable business, and the deeper questions of dignity in life and death, PTSD, and long-term rehabilitation.This is practical, unfiltered insight into how medical manufacturing adapts when supply lines collapse, borders close, and every piece of gear has to work in the worst conditions imaginable.Key TakeawaysMedical equipment designed for true one-person drag evacuation becomes critical when vehicles and multi-person teams are unavailable under drone threat and destroyed terrain.Starting with simple, locally available materials (construction-store aluminum for splints) allowed rapid production when imports were impossible.Operating underground with independent power, internet, and battery-powered tools enables continuity during blackouts and air raids.Visual quality control plus a “donation pile” for minor cosmetic defects keeps functional gear moving to the front while supporting community needs.Sustainable production requires paying people and covering costs—pure volunteering burns out and collapses.Feedback loops from soldiers drive continuous product improvement (rigidity, size options, packing for NATO pouches).Beyond the gear itself, the conversation highlights the need for dignity in recovery of the wounded and the fallen, plus long-term psychological and prosthetic support for survivors.Chapters00:00 – Introduction & Disclaimer00:26 – Meet Alex: CEO of Shannon Mechanics01:15 – Company origins: Revolution of Dignity to 2014–202202:41 – Humble beginnings, scrap materials, and the siege of Kyiv04:55 – Building supply chains under closed borders07:18 – Starting with BM splints, then the Utah/drag stretcher08:06 – Material challenges and community-driven solutions11:20 – Learning the craft, teaching production, and favoring people over full automation13:26 – From volunteering to a sustainable business model16:21 – Quality control process for splints23:20 – Introducing the drag stretcher design philosophy24:02 – Why rigid NATO litters fail in modern Ukrainian conditions25:01 – One-person drag, complex terrain, drones, and secondary injury prevention28:15 – Limitations (sniper fire) and real-world evacuation stories (8 km drag, quad bike integration)30:32 – Hypothermia protection, mud/snow durability, and recovery of the fallen34:40 – PTSD as generational trauma and the need for long-term support40:00 – Managing supply chain volatility and building Ukrainian supplier capacity42:39 – What has allowed the company to succeed during warFor more content, go to ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.prolongedfieldcare.org⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Consider supporting us: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠patreon.com/ProlongedFieldCareCollective⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ or ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.lobocoffeeco.com/product-page/prolonged-field-care⁠⁠⁠⁠

"As a migrant working here… it's not easy, and it has never been easy."In many European countries, a staggering proportion of cleaners come from migrant backgrounds. This isn't a coincidence. It's a pattern shaped by discriminatory immigration policies, labour market barriers, and the systematic failure to recognise qualifications and skils gained elsewhere.In this episode, we explore the intersection of migration, gender, labour exploitation, and the fight for dignity. We hear how visa status compounds precarity, how unrecognised qualifications trap skilled professionals in low-paid work, and how migrant workers— women and men—are fighting back against a system designed to keep them invisible.In this episode, we hear from:

Send us Fan MailOne careless sentence can make someone shut down for years. One kind sentence can pull them back from the edge. That's the tension we live in every day, and it's why I wanted to bring on Shannon Roy, a veteran trial attorney and the founder of Roy Law Firm in Denver, Colorado. She spends her life inside emotionally charged, high-stakes conversations, where communication, tone, and trust are the difference between escalation and understanding.We talk about how words can humanize or dehumanize, and why the very first moments of a conversation matter so much. Shannon shares a powerful story about a father working toward sobriety who hears his young son admit he's afraid dad won't be there when he comes down the slide. We also unpack a heartbreaking case involving a 10-year-old who unknowingly brought a backpack with a gun to school and faced expulsion, until a stranger's anonymous generosity changed the family's trajectory. These aren't abstract “be nicer” ideas. They're real examples of kindness and empathy shaping justice, safety, and outcomes.From there, we get practical: how to assume positive intent, how to pause before responding, why texting causes so many misunderstandings, and how ego blocks the apology that could repair a relationship. If you care about better relationships, emotional regulation, conflict resolution, and building a kinder community, you'll take away tools you can use today.Subscribe to Kindness Matters, share this conversation with someone who needs it, and leave a review so more people can find the show.This podcast is a proud member of the Mayday Media Network — your go-to hub for podcast creators.

Jon Sedlak calls Christians to recover the dignity of the skilled trades and to recognize craftsmanship as a vital form of Christian vocation. Drawing on his experience as a master electrician, he argues that the trades cultivate embodied wisdom, genuine competence, humility, endurance, excellence, and face-to-face service within local communities. Sedlak challenges churches, parents, and educators to stop treating the trades as a lesser path. Instead, Christian communities should train young people in practical skills, connect them with skilled mentors, honor tradesmen as essential servants of the city, and build networks that pass craftsmanship from one generation to the next.

In this episode, we continue our book study on Friendship in the Lord and reflect on how loving appreciation and reconciliation are the places where friendship matures. We talk about why healthy adult friendships draw us closer to the Lord, how the unique gifts of women and men reveal different facets of God's love, and how learning to behold another's beauty without trying to grasp or possess it calls forth our true identity. We also discuss the importance of recognizing how we've hurt others, expressing sincere sorrow, and allowing others to do the same. As we bring our wounds, suffering, and sin into the love of Christ, we discover that the very places we fear most can become the biggest places of resurrection.   Other Resources Mentioned: Restore the Glory Podcast on Confession (Parts 1-3) S18 Forgiveness Meditation (with questions from the book Forgiving as Unity with Christ)  S11 Forgiveness Meditation with Sister Miriam   Announcement: You can buy your copy of Friendship in the Lord from Ave Maria Press (or Amazon).   Journal Questions: Am I maturing as a friend? What does the Holy Spirit want to teach me through my friendships? Am I currently experiencing conflict or frustration in a relationship? What is the pain or trigger I feel beneath the conflict? Can I receive the gift of beauty without trying to grasp or possess it? How have I failed to uphold the dignity of my friends? Am I experiencing the fullness of who I am? What parts of myself am I hiding from my relationships?   Discussion Questions: When have you experienced your own uniqueness in a friendship? Did you experience your uniqueness as a gift to give or as an insecurity to hide? How is the Lord inviting you to more freely receive your friends rather than possessing them? How have you participated in belittling or sarcasm in your relationships? How have you participated in or been on the receiving end of judgment within friendships? Where does the Lord want to love you into a place of freedom?   Quote to Ponder: "The intimacy of adult friendship in the Spirit can teach us to aspire to the fullest possible intimacy with the Lord himself. The tenderness of one friend toward another is the image of God's own tenderness, when the friends truly love each other in the Spirit." (Friendship in the Lord, Page 62) Scripture for Lectio: "Therefore as God's chosen people, holy and dearly beloved, clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness, and patience. Bear with each other and forgive one another if any of you has a grievance against someone. Forgive as the Lord forgave you. And over all these virtues, put on love, which binds them all together in perfect unity." (Colossians 3:12-14)   Timestamps: 00:00 Intro 01:10 Scripture Verse and Quote to Ponder 02:03 Am I Maturing as A Friend? 07:57 Our Different Gifts Reveal Facets of God 11:45 Appreciating Beauty Without Grasping 14:28 Upholding the Dignity of Another 16:03 Receiving Ourselves as A Gift 18:37 Judgement Makes Us Blind 20:30 Exposing Our Weaknesses to the Light 22:00 Remaining Faithful to Our Friends 25:50 Reconciling with God and Others

Last week, the Mayor of New York City — a self-declared democratic socialist — sat down with Jon Stewart and delivered sixty minutes of the most carefully packaged pitch for socialist governance I have ever seen on mainstream American media. No shouting. No revolutionary slogans. Potholes. Childcare. Dignity. If you think this doesn't affect you because New York City is just New York City — understand this: what Mamdani is building is explicitly designed to be a national model. It is coming to your city next. So I'm going to break down his arguments and equip you with everything you need to not just defeat them, but to do so in such a way that robs him of the moral legitimacy that he is trying to steal.GET YOUR MERCH HERE: https://shop.nickjfreitas.com/BECOME A MEMBER OF THE IC: https://NickJFreitas.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/nickjfreitas/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/NickFreitasVATwitter: https://twitter.com/NickJFreitasYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@NickjfreitasTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@nickjfreitas3.000:00:00 – The three lies socialists always tell00:06:49 – Who really made NYC childcare unaffordable?00:12:35 – Fact-check: rent control and the true cost of "$60 million for tenants"00:17:22 – The non-answer: what democratic socialism actually is00:24:43 – Why the socialist utopia never arrives00:28:43 – How they really seize control: rent freezes and government grocery stores00:35:14 – The library lie: dressing up socialism as public goods00:40:51 – FDR, Mussolini, and socialist vs fascist economics00:43:07 – The dependency trap and Hayek's road to serfdom00:46:24 – The real definition, suspended elections, and Venezuela's collapse00:50:08 – No solutions, only tradeoffs: who hollowed out New York00:55:37 – The three lies, recapped

Right Thinking with Steve Coplon | Guests: Robin CasarjianThis week's show is called "With a Little Help from My Friends – Robin Casarjian." Tune in and hear Steve continue the countdown to his 500th show with guest Robin Casarjian. Robin is a Humanitarian of the highest order, a Selfless Altruist, a Champion of Human Welfare and Dignity. She is deeply devoted to helping those in distress. Robin believes in the enormous potential within all people. Robin “adopted” Steve and was there for him, as a friend and a mentor, when his burning desire was to dedicate himself, as she has her entire life, to helping underserved people who had fallen through the cracks of society. Robin agreed to be a guest on this show - "If we get to the important points that are important for your listeners." After listening to this show, you will agree with Steve when he says that "Robin is the most beautiful person that he knows."In this episode, we speak with Robin Kassarjian, founder and executive director of the Lionheart Foundation and author of *Forgiveness, A Bold Choice for a Peaceful Heart*, about forgiveness, emotional literacy, and healing. We discuss how her work developed through stress training and private practice, and how anger, resentment, guilt, and shame can add to stress and make healing harder.We also talk about the Lionheart Foundation's prison programs, including the National Emotional Literacy Project for Prisoners and *Houses of Healing*, and how they are designed to help people understand themselves, manage emotions, and take responsibility for change. Robin explains what forgiveness is and is not, and we also cover self-forgiveness, meditation, and practices that support emotional and spiritual growth. https://www.talknetworkradio.com/hosts/right-thinking

John Maytham is joined by one of South Africa's most recognisable and celebrated actresses, with standout roles in Uzalo, The Queen, and, most recently, Netflix's hit South African drama The Polygamist, Gugu Gumede. She discusses her role as the Ambassador for the Icebolethu Group's Dignity and Care Project. Presenter John Maytham is an actor and author-turned-talk radio veteran and seasoned journalist. His show serves a round-up of local and international news coupled with the latest in business, sport, traffic and weather. The host’s eclectic interests mean the program often surprises the audience with intriguing book reviews and inspiring interviews profiling artists.

Ep 293 Peacewarts: Resonant Charms - The Ask Behind the Mask (Class 10) In class 10, we study "The Ask Behind the Mask," focusing on the five primary needs hidden by aggression: safety, dignity, belonging, control, and grief. We explore real-world cases from Detroit union lines to Oslo transit disputes to show how "mis-filed requests" can be translated into shared values. We provide micro-practices like the "Protective Question" and the "Dignity Prefix." Homework: Look up the CNVC Needs List and identify which of the "five asks" resonates with you today. Write down one question about any of this episode's topics. If you don't have a question, write 'no question.' Optional: Journal about translating an aggressive comment using the "Protective Question." Books: If you'd like to read more on this subject, some book suggestions are Nonviolent Communication: A Language of Life by Marshall B. Rosenberg, which serves as the definitive manual on looking past aggressive masks to identify unmet universal human needs through actionable communication practices, and High Conflict: Why We Get Trapped and How We Get Out by Amanda Ripley, an insightful examination of how people get stuck in toxic conflict loops that highlights the specific tool of looping as a powerful validation micro-practice to break out. Learning Topics: The Five Asks (Safety, Dignity, Belonging, Control, Grief); Validation vs. Agreement; The Detroit Union Case; The Oslo Bus Driver Case; The Protective Question; The Dignity Prefix.

What if self-love, a corrective to shame, abandonment, and self-erasure, has begun producing a danger: a person so committed to honoring the self that nobody else's humanity can interrupt it? Self-love should restore dignity. It should rescue people from relationships, religions, families, and social systems that trained them to disappear. Yet every medicine contains the possibility of overdose. The language of healing can become a constitution. “Protecting my peace” can mean refusing truth. “Knowing my worth” can become a ranking system. “Choosing myself” can become permission to leave every room where reciprocity, compromise, correction, or repair is required. The ghost of Narcissus does not appear when someone admires themselves. It appears when the reflection becomes more sacred than reality. The person no longer loves the whole self, with its beauty, damage, courage, selfishness, tenderness, and capacity to injure. They love an edited image that must remain innocent. Anyone who challenges that image becomes toxic, misaligned, jealous, unsafe, or beneath their vibration. The deeper question may be more radical than whether self-love creates narcissistic tendencies. Could the highest form of self-love be selfless? Not self-erasing. Not boundaryless. Not weak. Selfless in the strictest sense: love with no ego seated at the center demanding elevation, exemption, admiration, or control. A functional self remains. Agency remains. Dignity remains. The throne disappears. Perhaps real self-love does not say, “I am above you.” It says, “I no longer need to stand above anyone to remain whole.” The person who hates themselves may be unable to receive love. The person who worships themselves may be unable to give it. The person who truly loves themselves may no longer need to make the self the center of love. Which one lives in your mirror: a healed self, a defended image, or Narcissus wearing the language of awakening?

In the eighth and final 15 minutes of our screenplay treatment, Napoleon really is trying to get this one last job done by completing the Brumaire coup. But his bid for his ultimate goal requires an unexpected sacrifice and is dependent on an essential contribution from his now thoroughly beloved Josephine. With a new framing device underlining the crucial role of Paul Barras in this story as the antagonist, we're sprinting for a finish line - and a certain comfy chair for our leading man.Yes, it's episode nine of our screenwriting escapade, in which we complete our mission of crafting a top-notch screenplay treatment about the life of Napoleon Bonaparte. Alex Stevenson is joined by James Topham (who knows a thing or two about screenwriting) and Ben Deery (who knows a thing or two about acting) to put the movie world to rights. Having analysed the pitfalls and frustrations of Ridley Scott's Napoleon 2023 in the first season the Napoleon Movie Quarter-Hourly, this time round the team have tried their uppermost to come up with the magic themselves.As our resident artificial aide-de-camp NAIpoleon Bot-aparte puts it:[02:27] The Recap of the "Rotten Pear": James catches us up on Act Three so far, featuring Napoleon's desertion from Egypt, a "titanic" row with Josephine, and a dinner with Barras that changes everything.[12:12] History is a Farce: Alex reads from Zamoyski's biography, revealing the hilarious historical reality of the coup: a bucking horse, a stress-induced facial rash, and a very "undone" Napoleon.[17:03] Dramatic Masterstroke or "Sh*tshow"?: The team debates whether Napoleon's historical bungling of the coup is a screenwriting disaster or an ironic opportunity for a "stunning performance."[19:13] The Ultimate Sacrifice: Alex pitches a thematic climax where Napoleon trades his "Great Man" dignity and romantic ideals for the grubbiness of actual power.[21:45] The Novella as a Blunt Instrument: Ben suggests a high-action alternative involving Napoleon beating a man unconscious with his own rolled-up novella manuscript.[28:35] The Framing Device Rabbit Hole: A deep dive into the art of the framing device, featuring references to The Princess Bride, Amadeus, and the "triangle" used in the World Snooker Championship.[33:10] Perspectives on a Dinner: The hosts pitch a circular narrative structure that uses a dinner with Barras to show how the "urbane puppet master" became the man who "owes Napoleon everything."[43:03] Marinara in the Sticks: Exploring the "fitting end" for Barras—sidelined to a provincial town like Ray Liotta at the end of Goodfellas with nothing but bad pasta sauce for company.[45:28] The Bonaparte Whisperer: Josephine finally gets an active role in the heist, proving she is a master survivor who knows exactly how to handle smitten Directory presidents and resignation letters.[52:36] The Dictator's Comfy Chair: The team lands on a final image involving a circular seating arrangement, an enigmatic grin, and the most crucial question of the production: "Who is going to play the pug?"Help us produce more episodes by supporting the Napoleonic Quarterly on Patreon: patreon.com/napoleonicquarterly

Can technology be leveraged for the human good? Or will AI technology and its explosive expansion bring about the opposite—a culture that reduces our magnificent humanity to means for technocratic ends? "We can either create the Tower of Babel or we can rebuild the walls of the New Jerusalem." Brian Patrick Green has spent his career asking these difficult questions and seeking to apply ethical theory to real world technological developments. He is director of technology ethics at Santa Clara University's Markkula Center for Applied Ethics, and he is co-author of "Encountering Artificial Intelligence" as well as the newly released "Reclaiming Human Agency in the Age of Artificial Intelligence." In this episode, Green explains the technocratic paradigm—the worldview that reduces people and the created world to raw material, data, and units of production, and sets against it what Pope Francis called a culture of encounter. He and Mark Labberton discuss the argument and impact of Pope Leo XIV's May 2026 encyclical on artificial intelligence, "Magnifica Humanitas", an uplifting moral appeal to troubled people in troubled times. They discuss the Eucharist and the ongoing incarnation as the anchor of Catholic social teaching; how technocratic thinking distorts immigration and war from the Marshall Islands to autonomous drones in Ukraine; just war theory in an age of ever more powerful weapons; the encyclical's principles from human dignity to solidarity; and where AI genuinely serves the vulnerable in medicine, in surfacing hidden bias, and in caring for the Earth. Episode Highlights "It's one thing to have new technology. It's an even bigger question of how we actually use it and how it actually affects people." "If we look at every other human being and we say, "This is an image of God in front of me. This is a person who is loved by God just as much as I am," that really transforms our way of viewing each other. "We can either create the Tower of Babel or we can rebuild the walls of the New Jerusalem. "If one grain of sand says to the other grain of sand, 'I'm better than you are,' that's a weird thing for sand to be saying to each other." "It's an encyclical about AI ostensibly, but really it's an encyclical about humanity … and what our role is here in the universe." About Brian Patrick Green Brian Patrick Green directs technology ethics at the Markkula Center for Applied Ethics at Santa Clara University, where he teaches engineers to weigh the human stakes of their work. A former genetics major, he turned toward technology's social impact after a year with the Jesuit Volunteers International in the Marshall Islands, a landscape marked by nuclear testing. He earned his doctorate at the Graduate Theological Union and has focused on AI since 2016. He co-authored "Encountering Artificial Intelligence: Ethical and Anthropological Investigations" and the new "Reclaiming Human Agency in the Age of Artificial Intelligence," and advises Catholic and multi-faith AI efforts, including at the Vatican.

Against such reductions, the Pope urges that we cultivate a "culture of encounter"—a culture that seeks the contact of mind with mind and heart with heart, in a relational sharing of life that embraces the most vulnerable."

As we observe the days of mourning before Tisha B'Av, we reflect on another profound experience of grief: the ending of a marriage. Divorce has its own mourning process, yet even when a marriage must end, it can end with dignity, compassion, and integrity. Talli Rosenbaum and Rabbi Scott Kahn speak with mediator and to'enet rabbanit Shoshie Goldstein about healthy co-parenting, navigating divorce in the Orthodox community, and finding a path toward healing.

Francis Fukuyama is the Olivier Nomellini Senior Fellow at Stanford University's Freeman Spogli Institute for International Studies (FSI), and a faculty member of FSI's Center on Democracy, Development and the Rule of Law (CDDRL). He is also Director of Stanford's Ford Dorsey Master's in International Policy, and a professor (by courtesy) of Political Science. In addition he is the author of several books. His most recent titles are Liberalism and Its Discontents, Identity: The Demand for Dignity and the Politics of Resentment, and the upcoming In the Realm of the Last Man: A Memoir. Greg and Francis talk about Frank's “End of History” thesis and later work on liberalism, identity, trust, and political order. Fukuyama argues long-run historical progress is visible in the gap between developed and developing societies, but he still sees no coherent “higher” alternative to liberal democracy and market society. He also explains that modern discontent through generational forgetting of 20th-century horrors and a deeper human desire for recognition and struggle (thymos), including megalothymia - the drive for superiority, which can turn tyrannical.  They discuss how modern prosperity arose from Europe's unique mix of innovation culture, political fragmentation, religious schism, and family changes that fostered individualism. Frank contrasts state strength with constraint, and traces democracy's path through England to parliament and common law, critiques American anti-statism in state-building, and examines China vs India. They also discuss war's effects on state capacity, the internet's role in polarization and factual disagreement, and the need for shared liberal norms. *unSILOed Podcast is produced by University FM.* Episode Quotes: The collapse of a shared factual basis  [47:23] Liberal societies need to tolerate viewpoint diversity, but what we're seeing goes way beyond this. This is kind of empirical, factual diversity where people don't accept the same factual basis of the nature of the world. So, you know, are vaccines safe? Well, we used to think there was consensus about that because you have this whole accepted scientific system for empirical testing of propositions like that, and for some reason now people don't trust that anymore, or, you know, who won the last election, sort of, issue. Very hard to have a democracy if you disagree about whether you had a free and fair election, right? And these, again, I think would not have existed in the pre-internet age, that kind of disagreement over just simple factual information. The absence of a higher alternative to liberal democracy  [05:18] A lot of people have lost faith in liberal democracy, but I still don't see anyone posing a real alternative of a higher society. Does the rule of law hold without shared norms? [54:46] One thing that the last few years have taught me is that, in a way, you know, we used to think there's law and there are norms, and the norms are basically more flighty and less weighty, but the law is really a big barrier to bad action. And I think we're realizing that's not true. Everything is normative. Why the drive for superiority can't simply be eliminated [12:42] It was Bob Iger or some big CEO who wanted to climb the seven highest mountains in the world, you know? So there's a lot of ways that you can demonstrate your superiority that are basically, if not socially constructive, they're at least peaceful; you know, they're not going to harm other people. But it turns out that for Donald Trump, at least that wasn't enough. And I think that's a basic problem. You want outlets for this, what I call "megalothumia." This is the desire to be recognized as superior, and basically you can't have a society without that. I mean, you're not going to have any great baseball players, musicians, you know, philosophers if you don't have people that want to be excellent at something. But that also unleashes a kind of tyrannical desire to simply dominate, and I think that's the problem we're dealing with right now.

Raising Expectations with Pastor Joe Schofield, Melba Schofield, Stefanie Thayer, Dr. Craig Thayer, Dr. Paul Hall, and Ron Greer Faith, Freedom, and the Fight for America The Raising Expectations team welcomes attorney, retired Army colonel, and author Kurt Schlichter for a wide-ranging discussion on faith, American leadership, cultural change, national security, education, civic responsibility, and the role Christians can play in shaping the nation's future. Friends, We are thrilled to have our longtime friend Kurt Schlichter back with us this Monday night, to share his wisdom and enthuse us all about our great nation! He is an outstanding author, political pungent, United States Army captain, teacher at the National War College in Washington D. C. and renown lawyer. He is a leading speaker on CPAC and highly respected for his ability to powerfully present the common sense and Judeo- Christian principals upon which we stand as a nation! His books are best sellers and “WE'LL BE BACK: the fall and rise of America” has made everyone think again as we watch America rise before our eyes with President Donald Trump and his incredible Cabinet! Boldness and appropriate transparency has aided in making us proud to be Americans once again! Kurt Schlichter has value driven conservative insights that are true and continue to inspire us as a nation! You won't want to miss the show so tell your friends and tune in and watch… Guest Spotlight Kurt Schlichter returns to Raising Expectations as a respected political commentator, attorney, retired U.S. Army colonel, and bestselling author known for combining military experience, legal insight, and cultural commentary. Throughout the conversation, Kurt discusses current events through the lenses of patriotism, faith, and public service while sharing perspectives drawn from his writing career, military background, and observations of American culture. Although the conversation covers numerous political topics, it repeatedly returns to the importance of personal responsibility, moral conviction, and active civic engagement. Faith, Freedom, and the State of the Nation Pastor Joe Schofield opens the program by reaffirming the show's commitment to faith in Jesus Christ, love for America, and confidence that God continues to work in the lives of those who trust Him. After introducing the panel and welcoming returning guest Kurt Schlichter, the conversation turns toward the current condition of the nation and the challenges facing American society. Kurt describes himself as optimistic about the country's future, arguing that many Americans have become dissatisfied with existing political and cultural institutions and are seeking meaningful change. The discussion establishes a hopeful yet candid tone as the panel explores leadership, public policy, and the responsibilities of citizenship from a Christian perspective. Leadership, Faith, and Public Service One of the conversation's earliest themes centers on political leadership and personal transformation. Kurt shares his view that President Donald Trump has pursued significant policy changes by challenging assumptions about what government can and cannot accomplish. Beyond politics, he also reflects on what he believes has been a noticeable change in Trump's personal faith following the assassination attempt against him, describing it as an example of how life-changing experiences can deepen spiritual awareness. The panel discusses the distinction between identifying with religion and developing an authentic relationship with God, emphasizing Bible reading, prayer, and continued spiritual growth over religious labels alone. Throughout the exchange, the speakers encourage listeners to pursue faith as a daily relationship rather than merely a public identity. Stories Shape Culture The discussion shifts toward Kurt's work as a novelist and his belief that culture is influenced not only through politics but also through storytelling. He introduces several of his books, including his upcoming novel American Warlord, and explains why he believes conservatives and Christians should actively create fiction, entertainment, and cultural works that reflect their values instead of simply criticizing existing media. Kurt argues that many ordinary Americans who work hard, raise families, practice their faith, and contribute positively to their communities are rarely represented in modern entertainment. For him, participating in culture is another way of preserving important values and broadening public conversation. Christians and Civic Responsibility The panel repeatedly returns to the role Christians play within American society. Pastor Joe expresses concern that many believers remain disengaged from public life or become informed only shortly before elections, while Kurt encourages greater participation in civic affairs. Rather than viewing political involvement as separate from faith, the speakers suggest that informed citizenship can become an extension of personal stewardship and responsibility. They discuss voting, public discourse, and the importance of remaining engaged in issues affecting local communities and the nation while seeking to act with integrity and conviction. Ideology, Media, and Competing Worldviews As the discussion broadens, Kurt shares his concerns about socialism, ideological movements, higher education, and parts of the modern media landscape. He argues that many people naturally seek purpose and meaning, and when religious faith is absent, they may replace it with political or cultural ideologies. The panel also discusses contemporary debates surrounding identity, entertainment, journalism, and public institutions, expressing concern that some voices discourage open dialogue or promote ideas they believe conflict with biblical values. Throughout these exchanges, the hosts frequently contrast cultural trends with what they view as enduring principles rooted in Christian faith and personal accountability. National Security and America's Place in the World Drawing upon his military experience, Kurt offers an extended discussion of American foreign policy, particularly regarding Iran, China, Russia, Ukraine, and broader geopolitical strategy. He explains how diplomatic, informational, military, and economic tools can work together to accomplish long-term strategic objectives, suggesting that effective leadership requires coordinating all four rather than relying solely upon military force. The panel also considers changing international alliances, energy policy, economic pressure, and global competition, viewing these developments through the broader lens of national security and America's future role on the world stage. Education, Skilled Trades, and the Dignity of Work Another major theme focuses on education and the changing value of higher learning. Kurt questions whether many universities continue to provide practical value, expressing concern about rising student debt, ideological influence, and the growing availability of alternative forms of learning. The panel discusses vocational education, skilled trades, apprenticeships, and technical careers, emphasizing that meaningful work should never be measured solely by academic credentials. Through stories about contractors, tradespeople, military service, and everyday professions, the conversation highlights the dignity of honest labor and the importance of respecting people for the quality of their work rather than their educational pedigree. Remembering the America That Built Community The discussion becomes more personal as Kurt reflects on his childhood in California, neighborhood friendships, books, television, family life, and the experiences that shaped previous generations. While acknowledging the benefits of technological advancement, including artificial intelligence, the panel also expresses concern that some aspects of community life, childhood independence, and shared cultural experiences have become more difficult to preserve. Rather than rejecting modern technology, the speakers encourage thoughtful use of new tools while continuing to cultivate strong families, meaningful relationships, and local communities. Standing for Truth with Courage As the conversation concludes, the panel returns to the role of Christians in an increasingly divided culture. Dr. Paul Hall expresses appreciation for Kurt's optimism and willingness to speak openly about difficult issues, while the hosts encourage believers to stand firmly for truth without fear or embarrassment. Pastor Ron Greer closes the program with a prayer asking for God's protection, wisdom, and continued guidance over Kurt, his family, and his work. The episode ends by reminding listeners that faith, courage, service, and hope remain essential qualities for those seeking to strengthen both their communities and their nation.

We've all seen career paths that sound like this: analyst 1, analyst 2, senior analyst, lead analyst, manager of analysts, etc. Those paths to leadership work for some people, but they don't work for others. In this conversation, Ludmila and I explore how to create leadership paths that work for everyone. Key Points Canaries were used in coal mines because they were more sensitive to early indicators of problems – in a way that helped everyone. The same is often true for neurodivergent leaders in organizations. The “ideal leader” is a myth. If we are honest, no individual fits the ideal profile. Having different paths to leadership makes more sense in a complex world. Many of the best leaders are specialists in something. Instead of looking for “culture fit,” challenge yourself and your organization to do a “culture add.” Neurodiverse leaders can be less susceptible to bias and have higher levels of divergent thinking – huge benefits strengths for many organizations. In addition to people management, consider paths for leadership that focus strength and skill on system and process, strategy, expertise, though leadership, global leadership, and creative ideation. Making the workplace more accessible and equitable for one population almost always makes it better for everyone.

What if some of the greatest investment opportunities weren't hiding in Silicon Valley or Wall Street, but inside small businesses that have been overlooked for decades?In this episode of The Conscious Capitalists, hosts Timothy Henry and Raj Sisodia sit down with Monika Mantilla, Co-Founder, President & CEO of Altura Capital (https://alturacap.com/), to explore how patient capital, purpose-driven investing, and entrepreneurial success can create extraordinary financial returns while strengthening communities. Over the past 21 years, Monika has built a proven track record investing in lower middle market businesses across low-and-moderate-income communities, demonstrating that impact and performance are not competing priorities, but mutually reinforcing ones.Monika shares why Altura Capital was intentionally built as an investment platform rather than a traditional private equity fund, allowing the firm to provide flexible capital tailored to the unique needs of growing businesses. She explains why patient investment horizons of three to seven years, combined with operational partnership and long-term thinking, consistently outperform short-term approaches. Along the way, she introduces The Altura Way, the firm's ten-pillar value creation framework that helps companies strengthen strategy, operations, leadership, governance, digital transformation, and community impact while building more resilient businesses.The conversation also explores one of the largest untapped opportunities in modern investing. Monika discusses research conducted alongside 29 of America's largest corporations that identified an estimated $590 billion in unrealized value within underserved business segments. She explains how diverse ownership, improved market access, and stronger partnerships with companies such as Walmart, Kroger, CVS, Merck, and Johnson & Johnson help unlock growth that traditional investors often overlook.But this episode reaches far beyond investing. Monika reflects on the influence of her upbringing in Bogotá, Colombia, the lasting impact of her mother, her faith-driven approach to leadership, and the philosophy that guides both her life and business: ser en el hacer—being in the doing. She also shares her unique 200-hour planning system, organizing life into fourteen categories across eight-week cycles, and explains why she considers leading Altura to be only her seventh priority after ensuring the rest of her life is aligned with her values.Listeners will gain insights into:Why the lower middle market represents one of the most overlooked opportunities in private equityWhat patient capital really means and why long-term investing creates stronger businessesHow Altura's ten-pillar value creation framework systematically scales growing companiesWhy diverse ownership and investing in underserved communities can generate above-market returnsHow market access and strategic partnerships accelerate business growthWhy values, intentional leadership, and disciplined time management are foundational to long-term successThe role conscious capitalism can play in creating both economic progress and social progressWhether you're an investor, entrepreneur, business leader, or simply interested in how capitalism can be a force for lasting value creation, this episode offers a compelling conversation about building businesses that deliver exceptional returns while expanding opportunity for more people.If you enjoy this podcast, would you consider leaving a review on Apple Podcasts or Spotify?

Valerie Huhn, Director of Missouri's Department of Mental Health and President of the National Association of State Directors of Developmental Disabilities Services (NASDDDS), discusses her career in public service and key issues affecting people with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD). She highlights the importance of collaboration among states, improving health outcomes, addressing oversight concerns around service quality and Medicaid funding, and leveraging technology to increase independence and efficiency. Huhn emphasizes initiatives such as integrating health and long-term support records, expanding technology-enabled supports, and modernizing service systems. She also shares her role on a federal healthcare advisory committee focused on vulnerable Medicaid populations. Her core recommendations are to promote the dignity of risk, support individuals through a flexible continuum of care, and recognize that successful outcomes depend on comprehensive supports—including housing, transportation, healthcare, and community services—that help people with IDD live meaningful, independent lives.

Dim the lights, dear podcast friends, and settle in for a delightful tale. In a world where no cohesive thought process exists for long, two drag queens sat before their microphones in a Pepto-Bismol-hued studio and caused such merry confusion that even the producer could not help but guffaw. In this colorful void, the queens told their listeners about a secret Patreon kingdom filled with bonus tales, extra chatter, and all manner of delightful nonsense for their most loyal subjects. Before long, they began remembering the day one of them appeared on RuPaul's Drag Race All Stars Season 2, arriving with an air of hope, optimism, and the undeserved courage of a knight entering an enchanted castle. And so the recording continued in cheerful disorder, until they had somehow transformed an ordinary afternoon into a golden tale of friendship, foolishness, and comedy gold.
