The dust has settled on the Manchester United defeat, but the questions are only getting louder. Jacob Hawley is joined by Johnny Dutch to move past the raw emotion of losing to a bitter rival and dissect the psychological state of the squad. They ask if the obsession with control has gone too far and if the ghosts of seasons past are haunting the tactical setup. On the deck: The £60m Dilemma: We drop a controversial take on Eberechi Eze's future. Is he a “maverick” unsuited for a dominant system, and have we already seen enough to know he isn't the answer? PTSD Football: A deep dive into whether Mikel Arteta is “coaching by trauma”—designing a system so terrified of making mistakes that it has forgotten how to take risks. The Captain's Fade: Why Martin Odegaard has become the lightning rod for fan frustration. We debate if it's a physical decline, a confidence crisis, or simply a player handcuffed by rigid instructions. Stumbling Into Solutions: History shows Arteta often finds his best attacking setups by accident. We argue why it's time to force the issue with Merino up top and bring Ben White back to unlock Saka. The League of Margins: Why the Premier League has morphed into “90s Serie A” and why a data-driven, risk-averse approach might not be enough to get over the line.

Mark van Rijmenam is a futurist, award-winning keynote speaker globally ranked as number one in his field. Salesforce recognizes him as a leading voice in AI. His latest book, Now What: How to Ride the Tsunami of Change, is available now, and he's the founder of FutureWise. In this episode, Mark challenges the assumption that faster change requires faster action. He argues that organizations moving at breakneck speed with AI and emerging technologies often skip the critical step: pausing to think about consequences. Mark introduces his three E's framework—educate, experiment, execute—as a systematic approach for leaders navigating exponential technological convergence. He emphasizes that while root knowledge becomes obsolete, skills like adaptability, strategic foresight, digital literacy, and ethical grounding become essential for building resilience in uncertain futures. In this episode, you'll discover how to lead through exponential change without losing your humanity, your judgment, or your competitive edge.

Watch this Episode on YouTube | Mark van Rijmenam on Why Faster Change Doesn't Mean Faster Action https://bit.ly/TLP-496 Key Takeaways [02:14] Mark circumnavigated Australia on bicycle in 100 days, raising $25,000 for Dutch children's cancer fund. [04:19] Mark said the most important starting point is becoming aware and educating yourself on all emerging technologies, not just AI. [08:19] Mark explained we discover AI rather than invent it, so we need to slow down and think instead of rushing forward. [14:46] Mark's digital twin can be WhatsApp'd 24/7 in 29 languages to answer deeper questions about his book. [16:17] Mark hopes in 10 years leaders will ask "how could we have been so stupid to move so fast?" [19:42] Mark recommends the three E's framework: educate, experiment, then execute what works best. [21:52] Mark insists leaders must understand technology implications or they'll dismiss great ideas they don't understand. [25:15] Mark said we need authentic human leaders because a machine-run society would be efficient but unpleasant. [29:51] Mark hopes technology convergence will foster humility and help us live in tandem with nature. [36:58] Mark said focus on analytical skills, adaptability, foresight, digital literacy, ethics, creativity, and collaboration. [39:07] And remember..."Our intuition about the future is linear. But the reality of information technology is exponential, and that makes a profound difference. If I take 30 steps linearly, I get to 30. If I take 30 steps exponentially, I get to a billion." - Ray Kurzweil Quotable Quotes "Leadership today in this fast changing world is different from leadership yesterday. The world of yesterday is no longer." "We don't invent AI, we discover AI. And that is a completely different perspective that has a big effect on everything that we do." "A lot of the big tech companies don't even understand the LLMs that they're building. They don't understand how they operate, which is really problematic." "Critical thinking is under siege because of these large language models, but we still need to think ourselves." "It's a bit of a paradox. You think you need to move faster and faster because the world is changing faster and faster. But you also need to build in moments to pause and reflect." "It's nice to be the first to market, but often it also comes with all the R&D and all the problems. Sitting back a little bit longer will help you move faster in the end." "Static knowledge is sort of dead. We need to have dynamic interactions." "AI and capitalism is a perfect storm where they really feed into each other." "If we don't educate people how to leverage AI, how to deal with AI, they might think it cares about you." "If we're going to end up in a society that's run by machines, it will be a very not pleasant society to live in." "We are social animals. We need that social interaction." "History doesn't repeat itself, but it certainly rhymes." "Continually running faster and faster to grab more and more money might not be the best solution in the world where we built extremely powerful tools." "Root knowledge is sort of becoming out of date because you can just look up with the click of a button." "You're not going to have one career anymore. You're going to have multiple careers in your lifetime and potentially even have multiple careers at the same time."

Ever heard of the unsuccessful Dutch painter who decided to humiliate his critics by forging Vermeers, which the artworld subsequently dubbed 'masterpieces'? Or the businessman who bought a Marc Chagall painting that he displayed with pride for years, before a television investigation revealed to his horror that it was a fake?Today we're exploring the scientific techniques used to reveal forged artworks - and bring down scammers still trying to make millions from fake masterpieces.Jehane Ragai is an Emeritus Professor of Chemistry at the American University in Cairo, with a passion for science matched by her love of arts and culture. Early in her career Jehane helped analyse the Great Sphinx of Giza and later became fascinated by the world of art forgery, leading to her acclaimed book, ‘The Scientist and the Forger'. Her life has not been without its difficulties, but - perhaps unsurprisingly, as the daughter of renowned Egyptian feminist Doria Shafik - she's not one to shy away from a challenge. And as she tells Professor Jim Al-Khalili, Jehane feels priveleged to have been able to integrate her twin passions into a career; advice she now passes on to her students.Presented by Jim Al-Khalili Produced by Lucy TaylorA BBC Studios production for Radio 4

Jesus taught that the true measure of giving isn't the size of the gift but the heart behind it. Generosity begins long before anything leaves our hands. It starts with what we treasure, love, and worship.Few writers explore the inner life of faith as clearly as Pierce Taylor Hibbs, senior writer at Westminster Theological Seminary and the author of more than twenty books on Christian living. In today's episode, he joins us to invite believers to examine not just the act of giving but the spiritual forces beneath it.In a recent article for the latest issue of Faithful Steward magazine titled "Motive Is Everything," he draws from counselor David Powlison to explain that there's always a “sun” around which the planets of our lives turn. We're always pulled toward something—success, security, comfort, pleasure, affirmation, or money—because we're created to worship. The question isn't whether we worship, but what we worship.When the created things we enjoy begin to occupy the center, Scripture calls it idolatry. Money is especially powerful in this way because it overlaps with pleasure and power. It promises control over life and the ability to enjoy it—two desires that easily eclipse our devotion to God if left unchecked.To explore the heart behind generosity, Hibbs points to one of Scripture's most striking stories: the widow's offering in Mark 12. We don't know her name, but Jesus knew her heart. While others gave large sums, she dropped two small coins into the temple treasury—an amount no one else would have celebrated. Yet Jesus did. He saw not the amount but the motive.That's the point: Giving is never merely transactional. It's deeply spiritual. It reveals what we value most.Hibbs notes that Scripture treats the heart—the lebab—as the control center of our lives. The Dutch theologian Herman Bavinck wrote that the heart is the source of both our rational and volitional life. It shapes what we think, desire, choose, and pursue. Outward actions are merely the visible tip of an iceberg. Beneath them lies motive.Jesus makes the same point in Luke 6:45: “The good person out of the good treasure of his heart produces good…for out of the abundance of the heart his mouth speaks.” Our generosity flows from whatever we treasure most. If we treasure God, giving becomes worship. If we treasure self, giving becomes calculation, obligation, or strategy.This reframes generosity. It's not just about allocating money. It's about the posture of the soul. It includes time, attention, hospitality, compassion, and quiet acts of service—not only dollars in a plate.So how do we cultivate godly motives? Hibbs suggests beginning with Scripture—especially the Gospels—and watching how Jesus treats people. Jesus continually draws attention to what's happening beneath the surface: motives, desires, and loves.We don't wait for perfectly pure motives to give—we'll never act if we do. But we do allow the Spirit to search us, shape us, and re-center our hearts on Christ, the God who gives first so that we might become givers.On Today's Program, Rob Answers Listener Questions:My son owns a rental property in Baltimore, but the tenant hasn't paid rent for two months. This has happened before, and it's putting financial strain on his family. We're debating whether to sell the house, but it would need some work. If we keep it, are there any tax deductions or benefits since the tenant isn't paying? What should my son do?I'm 64 and still working full time, but I'd like to withdraw money from my 401(k). Since I'm over 59½, can I do that without the 10% penalty even though I'm still employed? What should I know about taxes and plan rules?My wife is retired and in her 60s, but I'm not yet at retirement age. We're both on the mortgage.

Dusan shares the remarkable origin story of Tony's Chocolonely, which began nearly twenty years ago with a Dutch journalist's investigation into child labor and exploitation in the cocoa industry, and grew into a global chocolate brand with a singular goal: to make chocolate 100 percent exploitation free. We explore how that founding purpose has been protected through a unique mission-lock governance structure, designed to ensure the company's values survive scale, leadership changes, and even future ownership transitions.The conversation dives deep into Tony's Open Chain, an open-source supply chain platform that now includes more than twenty mission allies, including brands like MrBeast's Feastables, all working collaboratively to transform the cocoa industry from the inside out. Dusan explains how paying a Living Income Reference Price—often more than 80 percent above market rates—creates real economic stability for farmers, and why full traceability from farm to bar is essential for accountability, not marketing.We also unpack the current cocoa crisis, including why prices have recently tripled, what that means for farmers on the ground, and why higher prices alone don't solve systemic exploitation. Along the way, Dusan reflects on his own leadership journey, transitioning from a senior role at Anheuser-Busch InBev to leading a purpose-driven organization that measures success not just by growth, but by impact.Together, we explore what it means to scale with soul—expanding into mass retailers like Walmart and Costco while maintaining premium quality, ethical standards, and radical transparency. This is a grounded and honest conversation about conscious leadership, systems change, and the courage required to challenge “business as usual” in pursuit of a more just and sustainable economy.Please subscribe on Apple Podcasts / Spotify / Stitcher, or wherever you get your podcasts.For transcripts and show notes, please go to: https://www.theconsciouscapitalists.comThis show is presented by Conscious Capitalism, Inc.

Zoe gave up her house and her teaching job as a linguist, to fully live her life as a dance. She lives where she works or where people welcome her. Traveling and speaking many languages seem to be part of that dance. As she doesn't have any thoughts about who she is and who she should be, she completely surrenders to the present moment. The present moment is her only permanent companion, her beloved traveling guide, and biggest inspiration in working with people.“It is my wish to inspire people to live their life in the light of the present moment, to transcend the level of the mind and its endless thoughts, and remember who they truly are.”Zoe mostly draws from her own direct spiritual experience. She is also inspired by Advaita Vedanta (non-duality), Sufism (the ultimate reality is Love) and Tantrism (masculine and feminine energy come together in oneness).  She writes articles in two Dutch magazines* and shares her inspiration in the newsletters you find on this website. In 2010 Zoe had her first opening. One night she woke up bursting out laughing.  ‘Living as God!' she said. She realized that believing her thoughts was her only problem.  ‘If I don't believe my thoughts, I become totally available for Life/God to live through this body …' The next morning she started writing and two weeks later she finished the book Living as God. It is still available in Dutch and in English.** Nobody's Dance seems to be the sequel to Living as God. “Back then there was a lot of mental clarity, now there is a much deeper experience of that reality that is Love.”“When we become unattached to our stories, past and future and other fantasies, we become transparent. We remember our true nature and become available for life to dance through us. Our life becomes a Nobody's Dance.”Zoe is a citizen of Belgium but the world is her home.

Send us a textThis week on He Said, She Said, CNBC Fast Money stars, Guy Adami and Dan Nathan together with Kristen and Jen from The Wall Street Skinny dive into one of the most overlooked market shocks of the year: a massive, seven standard deviation move in the Japanese bond market. Jen breaks down why the long-assumed era of low inflation and easy monetary policy in Japan may be ending—and what that means for global markets. From failed bond auctions to yield curve dislocations, this is a masterclass in sovereign debt and fiscal risk with insights that apply far beyond Japan.The group also debates Netflix's all-cash bid for Warner Bros. Discovery, and why shareholders seem so uneasy about it. Kristen explains the counterintuitive math behind why switching from a stock deal to an all-cash offer actually hurts Netflix's earnings per share, why Wall Street hates uncertainty, and why shareholders have reason to be skeptical M&A won't destroy shareholder value. After all the same Warner Brothers was the target of the catastrophic 2000s AOL-Time Warner merger that is the poster child for M&A gone bad?Finally, the gang touches on gold, silver shortages, and the deeper themes driving flight to hard assets.

Too often we forget that part of England was under German occupation during WWII, but Sarah Sundin and I chatted about her newest release that takes place on Jersey. note: links may be affiliate links that provide me with a small commission at no extra expense to you.  We chatted about the way the different Channel Islands spent the war.  Sarah had so many cool things she'd learned during research to share. And, I loved learning about her characters and how she came up with her story. Excellent! Mists over the Channel Islands by Sarah Sundin  Behind enemy lines, adversary and ally become impossible to distinguish. The German invasion of the British Channel Islands shatters Dr. Ivy Picot's peaceful world, forcing her to shoulder the weight of her father's medical practice and hold together a family unraveling under the strain of war. As conditions worsen in Jersey with the arrival of thousands of forced laborers, Ivy's quiet allegiance to the Allies compels her to risk everything by providing medical aid to escaped workers--even as danger closes in. Dutch engineer and resistance member Gerrit van der Zee volunteers to build fortifications for the Germans so he can secretly send maps and diagrams to the Allies. On his arrival in the Channel Islands, he crosses paths with Ivy, who shows him contempt for the uniform he wears. As tensions mount and their missions grow increasingly dangerous, Ivy and Gerrit must confront the cost of courage, the meaning of sacrifice, and whether love can survive in the shadow of war. Will their covert efforts turn the tide--or will they pay the ultimate price for defiance? Renowned WWII fiction author Sarah Sundin crafts a compelling historical romance featuring enemies-to-lovers, wartime resistance, and medical intrigue--a tale of loyalty, resilience, and courage when love and duty collide.

In this episode of the Feel Free Again Podcast, I sit down with healing and empowerment coach Jorge Ruiz to talk about something men desperately need, but rarely reach for: grief recovery. We dig into why men often avoid emotional healing, why “I'm fine” becomes a lifestyle, and how unprocessed loss doesn't just hurt your feelings, it quietly anchors your identity to your past and shapes how you react in the present and fear the future. Jorge shares powerful stories from working with foster youth, people coming out of prison, and men who've learned to survive by numbing instead of processing. We talk identity labels like “addict” or “prisoner,” and how the Grief Recovery Method can help you finally separate who you are from what happened to you. We also go deep on men's isolation, the suicide reality, and the warrior/protector paradox: real strength isn't pretending you feel nothing—it's learning how to feel without being ruled by it. If you've ever felt stuck, reactive, ashamed, disconnected, or like peace always sits just one achievement away… this conversation is for you. I also share how grief recovery impacts marriage and fatherhood, and Jorge breaks down his FOCUS framework (Faith Overcomes Challenges Unleashes Success) plus why none of this works well until the heart gets healed first. If you know a man who needs this, please share it. It might be the conversation that helps him finally start healing. ⏱️ Chapters: 00:00 — Why Feeling “Stuck” Happens to Strong People 05:54 — Meet Ezra Stanton: The Cost of Staying in Quicksand 11:48 — The Hidden Patterns That Keep Men Stalled 17:42 — How to Tell If You're Numb vs. Actually “Okay” 23:36 — The Moment You Realize It's Not Just Stress 29:30 — The Lie of Self-Sufficiency (And Why It Backfires) 35:24 — Naming the Real Problem Without Shame 41:18 — The Inner Story Driving Your Outer Life 47:12 — Why Willpower Fails (Even for Disciplined Men) 53:06 — Rebuilding Clarity When You Can't Trust Your Feelings 59:00 — The Emotional Weight You Didn't Know You Were Carrying 01:04:54 — What Healing Actually Looks Like in Real Life 01:10:48 — Breaking the Cycle: Triggers, Reactions, and Repair 01:16:42 — Identity: Who You Become After Loss and Change 01:22:36 — Relationships Under Pressure: How Men Pull Away 01:28:30 — The Turning Point: Doing the Work That Works 01:34:24 — Practical Tools to Get Unstuck This Week 01:40:18 — What Freedom Feels Like (And Why It's Quiet at First) 01:46:12 — The Long Game: Staying Free, Not Just Getting Free 01:52:08 — Final Charge: The Next Step for Men Ready to Move Connect With Jorge: Email: jorgeruiz@focusimaginelife.com Website: https://www.griefrecoverymethod.com/grms/jorge-ruiz Cole James, President of the Grief Recovery Institute, shares about the Power of Grief Recovery! Cole is dedicating his life to help people with grief. Now, grief is much more than just losing someone. Did you know that? You've probably heard of the Five Stages of Grief, right?

In 2019, the Dutch municipality of Lochem was hit with a major cyber-attack that impacted everything from welfare payments to the sewage system. The mayor at the time – Sebastiaan van T' Evre – considered that the entire IT system had corrupted including backups. Starting from scratch, and with the help of suppliers and partners, Lochem rebuilt the bare bones within 24 hours. As a journey in civil C2, Sebastiaan recounts his experiences, his decisions, the frustrations, and his objectives during and after the attack, as well as some lessons for the future.

Episode 1595: I’ll Drive

Is there anything in your life that's off-limits from Jesus? If Jesus is Lord, “there is not one square inch over the whole domain of our human existence,” Dutch theologian Abraham Kuyper says, “over which Christ … does not cry, mine.” In our 2026 Vision Teaching Series, we're going to explore how Jesus is Lord over every aspect of our lives—including every minute, dollar, person, inch, word, and calling.

Dr. Carrie Jones, ND, MPH Hormone Literacy Welcome back to Dr. M's Women and Children First, where we step back from symptoms and ask a more interesting question: how does the female hormonal system actually develop, adapt, and sometimes struggle across a lifetime? Today's conversation spans that entire arc, from early life, to puberty, to fertility and more with someone who has spent more than two decades living inside that complexity. My guest is Dr. Carrie Jones, an internationally recognized speaker, consultant, author, and educator in women's health and hormones. Many know her as the “Queen of Hormones,” but what really defines her work is not titles, it's her ability to translate very complex endocrinology into biology that actually makes sense. Dr. Jones is a naturopathic physician who completed a two-year residency focused on women's health and endocrinology. She holds a Master of Public Health, was one of the very first clinicians to become board certified through the American Board of Naturopathic Endocrinology, and is a Menopause Society Certified Practitioner. She helped shape how an entire generation of clinicians think about hormone testing and interpretation as the first Medical Director at Precision Analytical, the creators of the DUTCH test, and later as the first Head of Medical Education at Rupa Health. She's served on Under Armour's Human Performance Council, consulted for multiple women's health and laboratory companies, and now serves as Chief Medical Officer at NuEthix Formulations. Many of you will recognize her voice from the Root Cause Medicine Podcast, which reached more than ten million downloads, and she now hosts her own show, Hello, Hormones, where she continues to explore how hormones shape mood, metabolism, immunity, fertility, and aging. But what makes today's conversation especially important is this: we're not just talking about menopause, or cycles, or lab values. We're asking a bigger question. How have female hormones changed across generations? How early life nutrition, stress, environment, and metabolic health shape the hormonal story from birth forward. And how modern exposures, from ultra-processed diets to endocrine-disrupting chemicals, may be quietly rewriting the biology of women long before symptoms ever appear. This is a systems-level conversation about development, resilience, and adaptation, and few people are better equipped to guide us through it than Dr. Carrie Jones.

In this episode of Stuff Dutch People Like, Colleen and Allard dive into the wonderfully strange world of Dutch film and television. What does Allard notice about Dutch screen culture as a director—and what sets it apart from its international counterparts? From brutally blunt storytelling to an almost shocking level of honesty (yes, even in children's programming), they unpack what makes Dutch TV and cinema so direct, unfiltered, and unmistakably Dutch.

The Secretary General of NATO has been dubbed the Trump whisperer after talks with Donald Trump at Davos appeared to help trigger a sudden U-turn on Greenland and threatened tariffs.

Appointed Secretary General of NATO in October 2024 he has led the organisation through a tumultuous time in global politics. Mark Coles takes a closer look at Mark Rutte's life.

he needed more for his group.Nl: Zijn gedachten gingen uit naar Sanne, die hopeloos thuis op medicijnen wachtte.En: His thoughts went out to Sanne, who was hopelessly waiting at home for medicine.Nl: Ze was zwak, en ze had de medicijnen snel nodig.En: She was weak and needed the medicine quickly.Nl: De geluiden van krakend glas braken de stilte, en Bram verstijfde.En: The sounds of cracking glass broke the silence, and Bram froze.Nl: Hij trok zijn capuchon dichter om zijn gezicht.En: He pulled his hood tighter around his face.Nl: Hij had geruchten gehoord over andere groepen die hier rondneusden.En: He had heard rumors of other groups nosing around here.Nl: Gevaar loerde om elke hoek, en hij moest voorzichtig zijn.En: Danger lurked around every corner, and he had to be cautious.Nl: Bij het gangpad van de medicijnen stopte hij.En: At the medicine aisle, he stopped.Nl: Niets.En: Nothing.Nl: Alles was weg.En: Everything was gone.Nl: Hij zuchtte dieper dan de stille sneeuwstorm buiten.En: He sighed deeper than the silent snowstorm outside.Nl: Wat nu?En: What now?Nl: Hij keek om zich heen naar de gebarsten muren en doorweekte tegels.En: He looked around at the cracked walls and soaked tiles.Nl: En toen hoorde hij stemmen, laag en dralend, maar dreigend nabij.En: And then he heard voices, low and lingering, but threateningly close.Nl: Het was Kees en zijn groep.En: It was Kees and his group.Nl: Er was altijd een gespannen relatie geweest tussen hun groep en die van Bram.En: There had always been a tense relationship between their group and Bram's.Nl: Concurrentie om spullen kon snel uit de hand lopen, vooral nu er zo weinig was.En: Competition for supplies could quickly get out of hand, especially now that there was so little left.Nl: Bram klemde zijn hand om het mes in zijn zak.En: Bram gripped the knife in his pocket.Nl: In plaats van te vechten, zoals zijn instinct hem vertelde, haalde hij diep adem en stapte hij naar voren.En: Instead of fighting, as his instinct told him to, he took a deep breath and stepped forward.Nl: "Kees," begon hij, zijn stem verrassend vast, "we doen hier allemaal ons best om te overleven."En: "Kees," he began, his voice surprisingly steady, "we're all doing our best to survive here."Nl: Kees keek op, zijn gezicht half verborgen onder een dikke sjaal.En: Kees looked up, his face half-hidden under a thick scarf.Nl: "Wat wil je, Bram?"En: "What do you want, Bram?"Nl: "Een oplossing.En: "An answer.Nl: Samenwerking.En: Cooperation.Nl: Jij en ik weten dat er niet veel over is om voor te vechten.En: You and I both know there's not much left to fight for.Nl: Waarom niet delen?En: Why not share?Nl: Jouw mensen, mijn mensen, we kunnen het samen beter doen."En: Your people, my people, we can do better together."Nl: Kees was stil, zijn ogen zoekend naar een spoor van bedrog.En: Kees was silent, his eyes searching for a hint of deceit.Nl: Maar Bram's oprechtheid straalde helder in de donkere gang.En: But Bram's sincerity shone brightly in the dark aisle.Nl: Na een lange minuut knikte Kees langzaam.En: After a long minute, Kees nodded slowly.Nl: "Deal."En: "Deal."Nl: Die dag verlieten Bram en Kees, schouder aan schouder, de supermarkt, elk met een handvol schamal verzamelde benodigdheden, maar met iets veel waardevollers — hoop.En: That day, Bram and Kees, shoulder to shoulder, left the supermarket, each with a handful of scantily gathered supplies, but with something much more valuable—hope.Nl: Hoop op een betere wintervooruitzicht voor iedereen.En: Hope for a better winter outlook for everyone.Nl: Bram voelde de kou niet meer zo intens.En: Bram didn't feel the cold as intensely anymore.Nl: Er was een sprankje warmte in zijn hart, een nieuw besef dat samenwerken soms het beste wapen is tegen de vijandigheid van de wereld buiten.En: There was a spark of warmth in his heart, a new realization that cooperation is sometimes the best weapon against the hostility of the world outside.Nl: Het was een stap naar een nieuwe toekomst, een waarin overleven iets minder wreed leek in de harde wintermaanden.En: It was a step toward a new future, one in which surviving seemed a bit less cruel during the harsh winter months.

England’s Henry Hudson was a sea explorer and navigator during the early 17th century, best known for his explorations of present-day Canada and parts of the northeastern United States. In 1609, an English adventurer hired by the Dutch government led an expedition to find a path to Asia through North America. His expedition led to the European discovery of the Hudson River and the establishment of New Amsterdam, a colonial settlement that later became New York City. In 1610, he sailed again, but this time flying the British flag.

A spokesman for Britain's prime minister, Keir Starmer, has said President Trump was wrong to diminish the role of NATO troops during the war in Afghanistan. There's been an angry backlash to the US president's claims that NATO allies avoided the frontline during the conflict. The Polish defence minister said the sacrifice of their troops should not be forgotten. The Dutch foreign minister described Mr Trump's comments as false. Roughly a third of coalition soldiers killed in Afghanistan were non- American.

aankijken.En: When Liselotte and Sander later brought him back to the café, he could only look at them gratefully.Nl: "Dank je," zei hij zacht.En: "Thank you," he said softly.Nl: "Ik dacht dat ik alles alleen moest doen, maar jullie hebben me laten zien dat het oké is om steun te accepteren."En: "I thought I had to do everything alone, but you showed me that it's okay to accept support."Nl: Liselotte glimlachte.En: Liselotte smiled.Nl: "We zijn er altijd voor je, Bram."En: "We'll always be there for you, Bram."Nl: Bram keek naar de vlammetjes van de open haard in het café en begreep voor het eerst dat onafhankelijkheid niet betekende dat je alles alleen moest doen.En: Bram looked at the flames of the fireplace in the café and understood for the first time that independence didn't mean doing everything alone.Nl: Soms is hulp vragen juist een teken van kracht.En: Sometimes, asking for help is a sign of strength.Nl: Terwijl de avond verder ging, voelde hij zich geïnspireerd en klaar voor de volgende stap, zowel in zijn kunst als in zijn leven.En: As the evening went on, he felt inspired and ready for the next step, both in his art and in his life.

The wind-powered sawmill was invented around 1592 in the Netherlands, immediately transforming the nature of labor and industry. This mechanical marvel replaced slow, muscle-powered sawyers, allowing timber to be cut for shipbuilding and construction up to 30 times faster than manual labor, radically lowering the cost of wood products. It used a crankshaft to convert the windmill's rotating motion into the linear, up-and-down movement required for sawing wood, essentially creating an early, powerful assembly line factory. This mechanization allowed for unprecedented, rapid timber production, which quickly made the Dutch rich and enabled the massive expansion of their global fleet and construction projects. This invention, whose significance has been overlooked, has been researched by today’s guest, Jaime Davila, author of “Forgotten: How One Man Unlocked the Modern World.”See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

From the BBC World Service: The world has been reacting to President Donald Trump's announcement of a vague framework agreement over the future of Greenland. The president said that the U.S. will not impose tariffs on eight NATO countries. Then, you might think of corporate bonds as relatively modern, but companies have actually been issuing them since at least the 17th century; so what kind of return can you expect from a bond issued in 1648 by a Dutch water company?

Episode 512 / Jasper Hagenaar Jasper Hagenaar is a painter who lives and works in the Netherlands. Evoking the ambience of vintage lifestyle magazines or art book photography there is so much ambience captured in Jasper's carefully framed imagery. Often times portraying still life compositions built from other existing artworks, his paintings feel both contemporary and classic, all while appearing faded and aged and therefore precious. Jasper was a resident artist at the Rijksakademie van beeldende kunsten in Amsterdam in 2004 and 2005. He was a recipient of both the jury and public award of the Royal Dutch painting prize in 2012. His works are part of significant Dutch museum collections as the Centraal Museum Utrecht, Dordrechts museum and the Teylers museum. His paintings have recently been shown internationally in group exhibitions at Hive, Centre for contemporary arts, Beijng and Rhodes Contemporary art gallery, London. His works can be found in numerous corporate and private collections in the Netherlands and abroad. He lives and works in Hedikhuizen, the Netherlands and is represented by Althuis Hofland Fine Arts in Amsterdam.

Welcome to The Hangar Z Podcast, brought to you by Vertical HeliCASTS, in partnership with Vertical Valor Magazine.In this two-part series, we go international and speak with Hangar Z co-hosts and international instructors. The panel includes Harald Brink, chief tactical flight officer from the Dutch national police; Lt Clay Lacey from the Texas Department of Public Safety; and Jon Duke, a U.K. military aviation veteran and contributor to Vertical and Vertical Valor magazines. This conversation goes beyond borders to examine the common ground and critical differences in air support operations between the U.S. and Europe. From suspect behavior that looks the same in Dallas as it does in The Hague, to the training that makes agency operations effective and efficient.We talk about the intense task saturation of the tactical flight officer—a job we argue is the most difficult in all of law enforcement—and the crucial safety threshold of simulator training, plus the tactical impact of flying single-engine helicopters versus the big twins.Check out the article "Aerial Pursuit Across Continents" by Jon Duke, who joins us to help cross-pollinate these incredible conversations into print. You can find the article in the Fall issue of Vertical Valor magazine. Visit VerticalMag.com to read more about this collaboration that came to life, alongside this recording!Thank you to our sponsors Bell, CENTUM and Metro Aviation.
