Lots of rambly topics as the boys gear up for One Battle After Another. They check in on the Jimmy Kimmel drama before Eitan gives tepid reviews of the things he is watching.

One of the most surprising developments in Washington, if you're a South Asia-watcher, is the surprising turn in U.S.-Pakistan relations. Having largely sidelined Pakistan over the past decade or more, the current U.S. administration has courted Pakistan with an enthusiasm that has caught many analysts off-guard.In June, Trump hosted Pakistan's army chief, Asim Munir, in the White House. A few weeks later, the White House struck a trade deal with Pakistan that kept the tariff rate at 19 percent, lower even than the 25 percent rate slapped on India. Finally, officials from both sides have been discussing joint ventures in cryptocurrency and critical minerals.To talk more about the sudden thaw in U.S.-Pakistan ties, Milan is joined on the show this week by Uzair Younus. Uzair is Chief Product Officer at TAG AI, the artificial intelligence-enabled platform developed by The Asia Group.Prior to joining The Asia Group, Uzair served as Director of the Pakistan Initiative at the Atlantic Council. He's the host of the podcast, Pakistonomy, a show which gives listeners an accessible way of understanding developments related to the politics, economics, and foreign policy of Pakistan. Uzair is also the author of a new book, Future Ready: Innovation, Abundance And The Global South. On this week's show, the two discuss Washington's quiet reassessment of Pakistan, the Trump administration's interest in Pakistan's critical minerals, and the military lessons of Operation Sindoor. Plus, the two discuss the prospects for India-Pakistan rapprochement and the Trump administration's interest in mediation. To watch this episode, click here.Episode notes:1.

Can body positivity and weight loss medications like Ozempic and WeGovy coexist. Or are they destined to clash? This question has sparked debates across social media and medical offices everywhere. In this episode, I will explore the history of the body positivity movement from its 1960's roots with the National Association to Advance Fat Acceptance to its social media explosion in the 2010's. I will discuss how the movement challenged diet culture and promoted self-love regardless of size. Then, I will also talk about today's weight loss medication revolution and the tension it creates. Some feel that taking these drugs contradicts body positivity principles, while others face judgement for choosing medical intervention. I will address the stigma from both sides, the challenge of redefining health, and how to separate personal choice from cultural pressure. Tune in to discover why these two movements don't have to be at war and how you can find a middle ground of honoring your own health journey without judgment.   Episode Highlights: The history and evolution of body positivity movement How society judges people based on size and the ongoing work needed. The rise of drugs like Zepbound and WeGovy and their health benefits The tension between these two movements seeing it as incompatible to each other's principles. How to embrace both self-acceptance and medical tools for health.   Connect with Dr. Alicia Shelly: Website | drshellymd.com Facebook | www.facebook.com/drshellymd Instagram | @drshellymd Linked In | www.linkedin.com/in/drshellymd Twitter | @drshellymd   About Dr. Alicia Shelly Dr. Alicia Shelly was raised in Atlanta, GA.

WKI: Debüt für die Warburg- und Dulles-Brüder (1919-1959)Ein Standpunkt von Wolfgang Effenberger.Bei der Pariser Friedenskonferenz 1919 hatten US-Außenminister Robert Lansing und dessen Neffen, die Dulles-Brüder, verschiedene, aber jeweils bedeutsame Rollen gespielt:Robert Lansing hatte als US-Außenminister bereits 1918 die "Lansing-Note" verfasst. Sie diente als Grundlage der harten Waffenstillstandsbedingungen gegenüber Deutschland und bildete schließlich die Basis für den Versailler Vertrag. Lansing leitete die Kommission für Kriegsverantwortlichkeiten, die die rechtlichen Grundlagen für die Sanktionierung Deutschlands und die Anklage des Kaisers erarbeitete. Wilsons Idee zur Gründung eines Völkerbundes unterstütze Lansing nicht uneingeschränkt und verlor daher schließlich das Vertrauen des Präsidenten.John Foster Dulles, damals ein junger Jurist, war enger Mitarbeiter der US-Delegation und gehörte zu jenen, die am Entwurf der wirtschaftlichen Bedingungen des Friedensvertrags mitarbeiteten. Er war insbesondere für Reparationen und wirtschaftliche Regelungen zuständig sowie für die Koordination zwischen Delegationsmitgliedern und internationalen Experten.Allen Dulles wirkte ebenfalls im Stab der US-Delegation, zunächst als junger Diplomat und Nachrichtenmann. Seine Aufgaben lagen vor allem in der Informationsbeschaffung und Hintergrundanalyse politischer Entwicklungen in Mitteleuropa, insbesondere Deutschlands. Robert Lansing gehörte zu den politisch und juristisch zentralen Figuren bei den Verhandlungen, John Foster Dulles spielte im Bereich Wirtschaftsfragen und Reparationsregelungen eine entscheidende Rolle, während Allen Dulles als junger Diplomat in der Nachrichtenarbeit und als "Verbindungsmann" tätig war. Alle drei wurden in dieser Zeit maßgeblich von den Erfahrungen und Netzwerken geprägt, die ihre späteren Karrieren entscheidend beeinflussen sollten. (1)Nach der Friedenskonferenz machten die Brüder Dulles einen Abstecher in das politisch gärende Berlin. Ihr Vater hatte in Göttingen und Leipzig Theologie studiert und seine Söhne mit Geschichten über die reiche intellektuelle Tradition und die Rolle des Landes in der Reformation begeistert.Allen Dulles blieb in Deutschland und wurde erster Sekretär der US-amerikanischen Botschaft in Berlin. Sein Bruder ging zurück in die New Yorker Industriekanzlei Sullivan & Cromwell und agierte global, wobei er sich mit größter Sorgfalt Deutschland widmete. Aus seiner Bewunderung für die Leistungsbereitschaft sowie die Strenge der Gesellschaftsordnung erwuchs seine Überzeugung, dass Deutschland eine aufstrebende Nation und ein Bollwerk gegen den Bolschewismus war.ZwischenkriegszeitDie Erfahrungen während des Ersten Weltkriegs – John als Pragmatiker im strukturierenden Hintergrund, Allen als Abenteurer im Feld – sollten ihre späteren Haltungen prägen: kompromisslose Realpolitik, Vertrauen in eigene Netzwerke und große Skepsis gegenüber Ideologien. Beide Brüder stehen für eine amerikanische Elite, die aus der Katastrophe des Ersten Weltkriegs gelernt hatte. Allen und John nutzten ihre juristischen, wirtschaftlichen und diplomatischen Netzwerke aus dieser Zeit zunächst als Partner der renommierten Anwaltskanzlei Sullivan & Cromwell, die sie später als führende Figuren des amerikanischen Staates im Kalten Krieg in ihrem eigenen Sinn weltpolitisch weiter ausbauen konnten....https://apolut.net/august-1914-der-verzerrte-ursprung-unserer-gegenwart-teil-6-von-wolfgang-effenberger/ Hosted on Acast.

Have you heard about people buying weight loss medications from unregulated sources online? The rise of black market weight loss drugs is putting lives at risk. In this episode, I discuss the concerning trend of people purchasing Retatrutide—a medication still in clinical trials—through illegal channels.

I explain what Retatrutide is and how it compares to FDA-approved medications like Ozempic, Wegovy, Zepbound, and Mounjaro. We explore why people take dangerous risks with black market drugs, from social media hype to cost concerns and access issues. Most importantly, I share the serious health and legal risks of buying unregulated medications and provide clear guidelines for safely accessing weight loss treatments through licensed providers.

John Batchelor is the host of the Friends of History Debating Society. He broadcasts from New England, where he is currently entering autumn, contrasting with Jeremy Zakis's springtime in New South Wales. He refers to Jeremy Zakisas his "good mate." Batchelor often guides the conversation with Jeremy Zakis, asking about: Dallas and the bird collection, noting Dallas's role as a "social worker" or "foreign affairs" diplomat. He initiates the discussion by asking about the "bird collection" and if it has "changed its order of battle." Batchelor notes that discussing springtime with Jeremy is "far more interesting" than preparing his own garden for winter's colder days. He also discusses python sightings, specifically mentioning a photograph of two pythons battling on a library roof on the Sunshine Coast, questioning if such an event is ordinary for an urban area. He emphasizes that he is in New England, in the "northern temperate zone," while Jeremy Zakis is in the "southern temperate zone."

Limited Series race is Adolescence vs The Penguin, Colin Farrell and Cristin Milioti get flowers, and teen phenom Owen Cooper is our "dont overthink it" pick. We close with watchlist fuel HBOs Task, Alien: Earth, Peacemaker Season 2, Netflix's Unknown Sender Catfish, and a quick Stephen King detour The Long Walk.

They came for a thrill. One night before Halloween. What they found still haunts them. This terrifying true story of a group of friends sneaking into the infamous Diplomat Hotel on Dominican Hill is not your average haunted house legend. What happened on October 30, 2003, is something darker, deeper—and chillingly unforgettable. Located in the fog-laced mountains of Baguio City, the Diplomat Hotel has long been known as one of the most haunted places in the Philippines. Built in 1913 as a monastery, it later became a site of wartime atrocities during World War II, before reopening as a hotel in the 1970s. But its darkest energies never left. On this night, eight friends climbed over barbed wire, slipping past chained gates and silent guards. They expected a scare, maybe a legend to laugh about. But what they found was a shadow that latched onto one of them, a group of ghostly strangers praying by a fountain, and a phone that vanished—only to reappear buried beneath a haunted tree. They saw a priest with unblinking eyes, heard a broken voice scream “DON'T”, and witnessed a silhouette too tall to be human. One girl collapsed in tears. Another boy felt a weight settle on him—one the guard would later see peel off his back and leap back into the dark. And what about the strangers? The ones with candles, lips moving in prayer? They never appeared again. The guard never saw them. It was as if they were never real… or never alive. The real haunting of the Diplomat Hotel isn't in its ghost tours or tourist photos. It's in the stories that refuse to fade, in the real encounters, in the laughter that comes from empty windows, in the shadows that follow people home. This is a true paranormal experience. Caught in real time. Witnessed by multiple people. And part of a legacy that has only grown darker with time. If you ever visit the Diplomat Hotel, remember: some ghosts don't want to be seen. Others are watching you before you even step inside. #DiplomatHotel #RealGhostStories #HauntedPlaces #BaguioGhosts #TrueHaunting #ParanormalExperience #ShadowPeople #GhostCaughtOnCamera #HauntedPhilippines #AbandonedHotel #UrbanExploration #GhostStory Love real ghost stories?

Located in the fog-laced mountains of Baguio City, the Diplomat Hotel has long been known as one of the most haunted places in the Philippines. Built in 1913 as a monastery, it later became a site of wartime atrocities during World War II, before reopening as a hotel in the 1970s. But its darkest energies never left. On this night, eight friends climbed over barbed wire, slipping past chained gates and silent guards. They expected a scare, maybe a legend to laugh about. But what they found was a shadow that latched onto one of them, a group of ghostly strangers praying by a fountain, and a phone that vanished—only to reappear buried beneath a haunted tree. They saw a priest with unblinking eyes, heard a broken voice scream “DON'T”, and witnessed a silhouette too tall to be human. One girl collapsed in tears. Another boy felt a weight settle on him—one the guard would later see peel off his back and leap back into the dark. And what about the strangers? The ones with candles, lips moving in prayer? They never appeared again. The guard never saw them. It was as if they were never real… or never alive. The real haunting of the Diplomat Hotel isn't in its ghost tours or tourist photos. It's in the stories that refuse to fade, in the real encounters, in the laughter that comes from empty windows, in the shadows that follow people home. This is a true paranormal experience. Caught in real time. Witnessed by multiple people. And part of a legacy that has only grown darker with time. If you ever visit the Diplomat Hotel, remember: some ghosts don't want to be seen. Others are watching you before you even step inside. #DiplomatHotel #RealGhostStories #HauntedPlaces #BaguioGhosts #TrueHaunting #ParanormalExperience #ShadowPeople #GhostCaughtOnCamera #HauntedPhilippines #AbandonedHotel #UrbanExploration #GhostStory Love real ghost stories?

On 2nd or 3rd September 1507, Thomas Savage, Archbishop of York, died at Cawood Castle in Yorkshire. Savage wasn't just a churchman — he was one of Henry VII's most trusted servants, a skilled diplomat, and a powerful royal official in the turbulent north of England. In this video, I uncover his remarkable story: - His family connections to the influential Stanley clan - His education at Oxford, Bologna, and Padua - His rise from royal chaplain in 1485 to Archbishop of York in 1501 - His role in negotiating Prince Arthur's marriage to Catherine of Aragon - His escort of Princess Margaret Tudor to Scotland for her historic marriage to James IV - His dangerous rivalry with the Earl of Northumberland - And his final years at Cawood Castle, with his body buried in York Minster and his heart laid to rest in Macclesfield Though not a household name today, Thomas Savage played a vital role in Tudor politics and diplomacy, and his career reminds us how powerful churchmen could be in shaping both the kingdom and the dynasty.
