How to use the Eisenhower Matrix to cut through chaos, focus on what truly matters, and make faster, smarter decisions as a small business owner. Show Notes Page: https://www.thehowofbusiness.com/587-eisenhower-matrix-prioritization/ Feeling overwhelmed by your never-ending to-do list? In this episode, Henry Lopez explains how to use the Eisenhower Matrix—a simple yet powerful framework—to prioritize your daily tasks and regain control of your time. Originally developed by Dwight D. Eisenhower and later popularized by Stephen Covey in The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People, the matrix helps business owners separate what's urgent from what's important, so they can focus on activities that truly move their business forward instead of reacting to every fire. Henry walks through how this framework complements the Big Rocks time management approach (Episode 569) and why most entrepreneurs mistakenly live in "urgent mode," constantly firefighting instead of leading strategically. He also shares how the Eisenhower Matrix inspired the creation of his free Task Management Tool, co-developed with his son-in-law, Colin Rhoades, using AI technology. "What is important is seldom urgent, and what is urgent is seldom important." — Dwight D. Eisenhower Henry and Colin also discuss how AI made it possible to create this simple browser-based productivity tool in just a few hours - proof that automation can make business life simpler in more ways than one. Listen to learn how to: Reduce overwhelm by categorizing tasks by urgency and importance. Identify your "Big Rocks" and schedule them intentionally. Use the Eisenhower Matrix for daily and even hourly decision-making... This episode is hosted by Henry Lopez.

Last month, former Democrat Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi suggested that local and state authorities in California, a sanctuary state, could arrest federal agents for enforcing federal immigration law, saying that while “the president may enjoy absolute immunity courtesy of his rogue Supreme Court, those who operate under his orders do not.” The former speaker, as well as other mayors and governors who see fit to nullify federal law, should take a moment and reread the supremacy clause of the U.S. Constitution, which “details that local state authorities are subject to treaties and the laws that the federal government makes. And, therefore, pursuant to those laws, they are subordinate,” argues Victor Davis Hanson on today's edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In a Few Words.” “We know in 1961-63, we had another attempt to nullify the supremacy clause. Southern governors in Mississippi and Arkansas and Alabama said, 'Federal law does not apply here. The Supreme Court ruling does not apply here. In our opinion, we can run our schools the way local people want. And we're gonna resist you.' The Eisenhower, and then later the Kennedy administration, said, 'No, you're not. We have the federal government's military, and we can federalize and hold you in contempt and arrest you because of the supremacy clause.'"

Operation Olympic was the first phase of Operation Downfall—the Allied plan to invade Japan and end World War II. Set for November 1, 1945, this massive amphibious assault on Kyushu was canceled after Japan surrendered following the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki and the Soviet Union's declaration of war.In this episode, MacArthur Memorial historians Amanda Williams and Jim Zobel break down the operation's objectives, scale, and historical context. This episode also includes a bonus Q&A of listener questions that were recorded after the initial program. YouTube Initial Program: Operation OlympicYouTube Q&A: Operation Olympic Q&AHave a comment about this episode?

“Plans are worthless, but planning is everything.” This is a quote from Dwight D Eisenhower who was the Supreme Commander of the Allied Forces in Europe in WWII and also the 34th President of the United States. What he as saying is that a plan is a guide that can often change in the heat of battle, but because there is a plan it means different risks and scenarios have been thought through, you know what your resources, risks and goals are and having thought all this through you now have a foundation or base level that sets out your direction and you can use and adapt this when things change. In the case of a Farm Business Plan, it is also an excellent document to have when communicating within your business and to external parties such as advisers and financiers.My guest this month is Jess Bell, Senior Project Officer with NSW DPIRD's Farm Business Resilience Program who has co-authored a book called Farm Business Planning which has been published by Tocal College and is also available online. We discuss the importance of a Farm Business Plan, when you should develop one, who should do it, what it contains, why you should have one and how it can be used, as well as providing you with lots of resources to help you through the process and set your business up for future success.Useful resources related to this podcast:·       Order your “Farm Business Planning” book and access free templates·       Dairy Standard Chart of Accounts·       Dairy Cash Budgeting Tool | Dairy Australia·       Farm Business Resilience ProgramThis podcast is an initiative of the NSW DPI Dairy Business Advisory Unit – further information and resources are available here - Dairy | Department of Primary IndustriesIt is brought to you in partnership the Hunter Local Land ServicesPlease share this podcast with your fellow farmers and colleagues and feel free to contact us with suggestions or comments via this email address thebusinessofdairy@gmail.comFurther NSW DPI Dairy channels to follow and subscribe to include:NSW DPI Dairy Facebook pageNSW DPI Dairy Newsletter - Connect with us | Department of Primary Industries Transcript hereProduced by Liam DriverThe information discussed in this podcast are for informative and educational purposes only and do not constitute advice.

World War II hero Phil Larimore remains the youngest candidate to ever graduate from Army Officer Training School, which he did at the age of seventeen, on the eve of America's involvement in World War II. Landing on the Anzio beachhead in February 1944, Phil – the youngest commissioned US officer in World War II – was put in charge of an Ammunition Pioneer Platoon of the 3rd Infantry Division. Their job: to deliver ammunition to the frontline foxholes—a dangerous assignment involving regular forays into No Man's Land. As Phil fought his way up the Italian boot, into Southern France and across the Rhine River into Germany, he experienced some of the most intense combat ever. But it was what happened in the final stages of the war, when Phil was sent on a secret mission into Nazi-occupied Czechoslovakia to find the farm where Hitler was hiding his world-famous Lipizzaner stallions that makes his story incredibly special and is  the ultimate expression of Phil Larimore's life-long love of horses. Like so many veterans of that “greatest generation,” Phil didn't talk much about his war experiences until much later in life, and when he did his stories seemed outrageous to his family and his sons. After his death, his son and our guest Dr. Walt Larimore discovered his father's papers in the attic—and learned that his father's stories were all true. In this episode, Dr. Larimore describes his father's remarkable service to his country, including meeting Eisenhower, losing his leg, fighting to stay in the army, and being awarded  the Distinguished Service Cross, two silver stars, two bronze stars, three Purple Hearts, the Medal of France, the Crois du Garde with a palm, and more. All of this and more is described in Dr. Walt Larimore's remarkable book At First Light.Heroes Behind HeadlinesExecutive Producer Ralph PezzulloProduced & Engineered by Mike DawsonMusic provided by ExtremeMusic.com

In this episode of Crazy Wisdom, host Stewart Alsop talks with Richard Easton, co-author of GPS Declassified: From Smart Bombs to Smartphones, about the remarkable history behind the Global Positioning System and its ripple effects on technology, secrecy, and innovation. They trace the story from Roger Easton's early work on time navigation and atomic clocks to the 1973 approval of the GPS program, the Cold War's influence on satellite development, and how civilian and military interests shaped its evolution. The conversation also explores selective availability, the Gulf War, and how GPS paved the way for modern mapping tools like Google Maps and Waze, as well as broader questions about information, transparency, and the future of scientific innovation. Learn more about Richard Easton's work and explore early GPS documents at gpsdeclassified.com, or pick up his book GPS Declassified: From Smart Bombs to Smartphones.Check out this GPT we trained on the conversationTimestamps00:00 – Stewart Alsop introduces Richard Easton, who explains the origins of GPS, its 12-hour satellite orbits, and his father Roger Easton's early time navigation work.05:00 – Discussion on atomic clocks, the hydrogen maser, and how technological skepticism drove innovation toward the modern GPS system.10:00 – Miniaturization of receivers, the rise of smartphones as GPS devices, and early mapping tools like Google Maps and Waze.15:00 – The Apollo missions' computer systems and precision landings lead back to GPS development and the 1973 approval of the joint program office.20:00 – The Gulf War's use of GPS, selective availability, and how civilian receivers became vital for soldiers and surveyors.25:00 – Secrecy in satellite programs, from GRAB and POPPY to Eisenhower's caution after the U-2 incident, and the link between intelligence and innovation.30:00 – The myth of the Korean airliner sparking civilian GPS, Reagan's policy, and the importance of declassified documents.35:00 – Cold War espionage stories like Gordievsky's defection, the rise of surveillance, and early countermeasures to GPS jamming.40:00 – Selective availability ends in 2000, sparking geocaching and civilian boom, with GPS enabling agriculture and transport.45:00 – Conversation shifts to AI, deepfakes, and the reliability of digital history.50:00 – Reflections on big science, decentralization, and innovation funding from John Foster to SpaceX and Starlink.55:00 – Universities' bureaucratic bloat, the future of research education, and Richard's praise for the University of Chicago's BASIC program.Key InsightsGPS was born from competing visions within the U.S. military. Richard Easton explains that the Navy and Air Force each had different ideas for navigation satellites in the 1960s. The Navy wanted mid-Earth orbits with autonomous atomic clocks, while the Air Force preferred ground-controlled repeaters in geostationary orbit. The eventual compromise in 1973 created the modern GPS structure—24 satellites in six constellations—which balanced accuracy, independence, and resilience.Atomic clocks made global navigation possible. Roger Easton's early insight was that improving atomic clock precision would one day enable real-time positioning. The hydrogen maser, developed in 1960, became the breakthrough technology that made GPS feasible. This innovation turned a theoretical idea into a working global system and also advanced timekeeping for scientific and financial applications.Civilian access to GPS was always intended. Contrary to popular belief, GPS wasn't a military secret turned public after the Korean airliner tragedy in 1983. Civilian receivers, such as TI's 4100 model, were already available in 1981. Reagan's 1983 announcement merely reaffirmed an existing policy that GPS would serve both military and civilian users.The Gulf War proved GPS's strategic value. During the 1991 conflict, U.S. and coalition forces used mostly civilian receivers after the Pentagon lifted “selective availability,” which intentionally degraded accuracy. GPS allowed troops to coordinate movement and strikes even during sandstorms, changing modern warfare.Secrecy and innovation were deeply intertwined. Easton recounts how classified projects like GRAB and POPPY—satellites disguised as scientific missions—laid technical groundwork for navigation systems. The crossover between secret defense projects and public science fueled breakthroughs but also obscured credit and understanding.Ending selective availability unleashed global applications. When the distortion feature was turned off in May 2000, GPS accuracy improved instantly, leading to new industries—geocaching, precision agriculture, logistics, and smartphone navigation. This marked GPS's shift from a defense tool to an everyday utility.Innovation's future may rely on decentralization. Reflecting on his father's era and today's landscape, Easton argues that bureaucratic “big science” has grown sluggish. He sees promise in smaller, independent innovators—helped by AI, cheaper satellites, and private space ventures like SpaceX—continuing the cycle of technological transformation that GPS began.

What do presidents really know about UFOs, consciousness, and the deeper architecture of reality?This episode of the Presidential Podcast explores the strange and often contradictory relationship between political power and metaphysical truth. From Truman to Trump, we trace how each administration has approached the phenomenon—sometimes with curiosity, sometimes with silence, and sometimes with a quiet sense of awe.The public has long speculated about what goes on behind closed doors in the Oval Office. Are presidents briefed on crash retrievals? Do they know about non-human entities? Are they told the truth—or just enough to keep them quiet? The answers, as we'll explore, are layered, elusive, and often more philosophical than technological.We begin with Harry Truman, who was president during the Roswell incident in 1947. While the official explanation dismissed the crash as a weather balloon, internal memos and military movements suggest something far more significant. Truman's administration oversaw the birth of MJ-12, the rumored secret group tasked with managing recovered craft and non-human technology. Whether MJ-12 was real or mythologized, its presence in the historical record points to a deep compartmentalization of knowledge—one that may have excluded even the Commander-in-Chief.Eisenhower, with his military background, was reportedly briefed on recovered materials and entities. Some insiders claim he even visited a base to see them firsthand. His farewell address warning of the “military-industrial complex” may have been more than political—it may have been personal.John F. Kennedy pushed for transparency, especially around space and intelligence. But his assassination cut short any deeper inquiry. Jimmy Carter famously reported a UFO sighting and promised disclosure during his campaign. Once in office, however, he was reportedly told that the truth was “too complex” to release. His disappointment was palpable.Bill Clinton took a more active approach. He sent aides to investigate Area 51 and Roswell. His response? “I tried. There's a government inside the government, and I don't control it.” This statement, often dismissed as hyperbole, may reflect a deeper reality: that the phenomenon operates outside traditional political structures.Barack Obama was asked repeatedly about UFOs. His answers were playful, evasive. “I can't tell you,” he joked. “They'd have to kill me.” But behind the humor was a pattern: presidents were aware, but not empowered. They were briefed, but not invited into the deeper rooms.Donald Trump broke the mold. He spoke about UFOs, supported the creation of Space Force, and oversaw the release of Pentagon videos confirming UAPs. But even he admitted: “I've heard some interesting things. I'll tell you one day. Maybe.” Why the silence? Why the deflection? The answer may lie in the nature of the phenomenon itself.Jim Semivan, a former CIA official involved in recent disclosure efforts, described the truth as “indigestible.” He worried about how to explain to children that there's a force that can control the environment, insert thoughts, deceive, and that we're not in control. The fear isn't about technology—it's about existential collapse.James Lakatsky, who ran AAWSAP for the Defense Intelligence Agency, concluded that UAPs are a technology that integrates physical and psychic phenomena—and that they manipulate psychological parameters in the witness. This isn't just about flying objects. It's about reality itself.So where does this leave the presidents?They may be briefed. They may be curious. But the final answer may not be political—it may be personal. It may come through experiencers, researchers, and those willing to question the nature of reality.#PresidentialPodcast #UFOs #Consciousness #Disclosure #DeepDive

En este episodio se revela cómo la Matriz de Eisenhower puede ayudarte a decidir como un general: divide tus tareas en cuatro cuadrantes y, sobre todo, entiende que no todo lo que es urgente es importante. El giro clave es que el crecimiento real suele estar en el cuadrante 2: lo importante pero no urgente, donde nacen la estrategia, las alianzas y mejoras que impulsan tu negocio. Para potenciarlas, se incorporan dos palancas: la ley de Pareto (el 20% de las tareas genera el 80% de los resultados) y la ley de Parkinson (las tareas ocupan exactamente el tiempo que les das). Con este marco, ya tienes un plan práctico para empezar a sacar trueno a tu agenda, no solo a apagar fuegos.El ejemplo de Marta, diseñadora freelance, ilustra lo que puede cambiar en semanas: bloquear las mañanas para lo importante no urgente y externalizar el soporte por horas le duplicó la facturación y redujo su carga de trabajo dominical. Pasos simples: captura todas las tareas y asígnales I/U o N/NU, reserva dos bloques de 45 minutos para lo crucial, crea plantillas para lo urgente no importante y elimina lo que no mueve la aguja. Si quieres, puedes ampliar con una comunidad de emprendedores que ya aplica estas ideas y comenzar hoy mismo con un reto de diez minutos para dar el primer paso. ¿Te atreves a gobernar tu agenda en lugar de dejar que ella te gobierne?Conviértete en un seguidor de este podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/productividad-maxima--5279700/support.Newsletter Marketing Radical: https://marketingradical.substack.com/welcomeNewsletter Negocios con IA: https://negociosconia.substack.com/welcomeMis Libros: https://borjagiron.com/librosSysteme Gratis: https://borjagiron.com/systemeSysteme 30% dto: https://borjagiron.com/systeme30Manychat Gratis: https://borjagiron.com/manychatMetricool 30 días Gratis Plan Premium (Usa cupón BORJA30): https://borjagiron.com/metricoolNoticias Redes Sociales: https://redessocialeshoy.comNoticias IA: https://inteligenciaartificialhoy.comClub: https://triunfers.com

Bienvenido al podcast Productividad Máxima. Soy el clon en prácticas de Borja Girón. Si hoy sueno un poco a tostadora de lujo, calma, estoy en modo aprendizaje acelerado; dame dos actualizaciones más y le quito a Borja la agenda… y quizá también las galletas del café. Hoy traigo una estrategia de productividad sobre Operación Eisenhower: cómo ganar el día antes de que empiece.Y ahora toca una historia real para abrir apetito. Año mil novecientos cuarenta y cuatro. Dwight D. Eisenhower, comandante supremo aliado, prepara el desembarco de Normandía. Presión máxima, variables infinitas y cero margen para el drama. ¿Qué hizo? Separar lo urgente de lo importante con una claridad brutal. Lo urgente eran las ventanas meteorológicas, los movimientos del enemigo, los horarios de marea. Lo importante, que casi nadie quiere mirar cuando falta tiempo, era la logística, la coordinación entre fuerzas, los planes de contingencia y, atención, las decisiones previas por si todo salía mal. De hecho, escribió una nota asumiendo la responsabilidad en caso de fracaso, una decisión que le liberó foco para ejecutar. Espera, te lo repito porque esto es clave: preparó decisiones antes de necesitarlas. Esa es la base de la matriz de Eisenhower. Si decides con antelación qué es importante, no te come lo urgente. En tu negocio pasa a diario, solo que sin cascos y sin playa.Vale, vamos por partes. La matriz de Eisenhower divide tu mundo en cuatro cajas: importante y urgente, importante pero no urgente, no importante y urgente, y no importante y no urgente. Hasta aquí la teoría. Ok, déjame explicarte mejor esta parte en versión emprendedor con poco tiempo. Lo que te hace crecer vive en la caja importante pero no urgente: producto, ventas de calidad, relaciones estratégicas, formación. Lo que te persigue con sirenas vive en la caja importante y urgente: entregas con fecha límite, incidencias con clientes, facturas críticas. Lo que suena mucho pero aporta poco es no importante y urgente: correos que no cambian nada, solicitudes que otros pueden resolver. Y lo que distrae sin anestesia ya sabes dónde va: no importante y no urgente.Y atento a lo siguiente porque es importante. Te propongo poner en práctica la Operación Eisenhower en un día normal con un ritual muy sencillo. Primero, inventario express de tres minutos: vuelca en una hoja todo lo que te ronda la cabeza. Sí, todo. Segundo, marca con una I las tareas que mueven ingresos, retención o producto, y con una U las que te persiguen hoy. Las que tienen I sin U son tus raíces, las que tienen I y U son tu fuego, y el resto… bueno, son ruido o delegables. Tercero, agenda ya mismo dos bloques trinchera de cincuenta minutos para importante pero no urgente, uno por la mañana y otro por la tarde. Ciérralos como si fueran una reunión pagada. Cuarto, reserva un bloque de treinta minutos para importante y urgente. Quinto, crea dos reglas “si pasa X, haré Y”. Por ejemplo: si recibo una petición no importante y urgente, responderé con una plantilla y propondré horario mañana. O esta otra: si una tarea no tiene impacto claro, la aparco veinticuatro horas. Estas predecisiones son tu chaleco antibalas. Esto suele pasar más de lo que crees: sin reglas previas, lo urgente gana por inercia.Antes de seguir, hago una pequeña pausa.

Puedes empezar a usar Systeme gratis entrando en borjagiron.com barra systeme o desde el link de la descripción. Y ahora continuamos con el episodio.Y ahora toca una historia rápida para que lo veas con un caso particular. Marta, creadora de cursos, vivía en la bandeja de entrada. Tres horas al día en correos y la sensación de no avanzar. Montamos su Operación Eisenhower una semana. Dos bloques sagrados para lo importante no urgente: uno para grabar lecciones y otro para mejorar la propuesta de valor. Treinta minutos después de comer para lo urgente importante, y un filtro previo para lo urgente no importante con una respuesta tipo que decía: “Gracias, te confirmo mañana a las diez con opciones”. Primer día, dos lecciones grabadas. Tercer día, página de ventas versión uno publicada. Quinto día, envió una campaña con la nueva propuesta. Resultado: más ingresos con menos horas pegada al correo. Y lo mejor, menos ansiedad. Cuando el día sabe a qué juega, el caos pierde gracia.Continuamos con un aprendizaje rápido. Toma nota. Limita tus métricas de decisión a dos por semana, por ejemplo tasa de conversión y coste por lead. Demasiados números te marean, pocos te enfocan. Usa una frase gatillo antes de aceptar tareas: “¿Esto cambia mis ingresos o mi producto en los próximos treinta días?” Si la respuesta es no, la mandas a revisión o la delegas. Y, por último, convierte tus bloques importantes en entregas, no en horas. En lugar de “trabajar en la web”, “publicar versión uno de la sección de testimonios”. Entrega vence a perfección en el mundo real.Y ahora vamos con el resumen del episodio. Hemos visto cómo Eisenhower ganó ventaja separando lo urgente de lo importante y tomando decisiones antes de que hicieran ruido. Lo aterrizamos en tu agenda con un inventario express, dos bloques trinchera de cincuenta minutos para lo importante no urgente, un bloque de treinta minutos para lo importante urgente y dos reglas “si X entonces Y” para neutralizar el ruido. Lo importante es convertir bloque en entrega y protegerlo como si te pagaran por ello, porque, sorpresa, te pagan por ello.Tu única acción para hoy es esta: abre tu calendario y bloquea dos franjas de cincuenta minutos para mañana, una a primera hora y otra después de comer, dedicadas a tareas importantes no urgentes. Titúlalas con una entrega concreta, por ejemplo “publicar página de servicios versión uno” o “enviar tres propuestas firmables”. Programa la alarma, prepara los materiales y cierra notificaciones. Solo eso, hoy.Antes de irnos, si quieres dejar de emprender en soledad y decidir mejor, te recomiendo el Club de Emprendedores Triunfers, al que puedes unirte desde Triunfers.com.

“There are some things that only time can do. Dynamite can't touch them.”– Dwight D. EisenhowerIn The Scandals of the Kingdom, Dallas Willard names a profound tension between the person of Jesus and the dilemma of modern American Christianity. We spend vast sums of money and energy trying to get people into church. Meanwhile, in the Gospels, people tore the roofs off buildings just to get to Jesus. So much so, He often withdrew from the crowds—not to perform, but to be with His Father and to invest in a few trusted apprentices.Jesus was the most consecrated King who ever lived. And yet, while we strive to build platforms and leverage influence, He chose obscurity and intimacy and consented to the slow and steady work of His Father in the lives entrusted to his care.So we must ask ourselves: Why do we find Him hiding from crowds in places where we keep striving to be seen?If we are willing to be honest with both this longing to be seen and the desire to see immediate results for the fruit of our labors, we can access a precious part of us that becomes a fresh doorway to return home to the heart of God.This episode concludes a deeper cut series—an excavation of the foundational ideas unearthed through Becoming a King. At its core, we've been exploring a central, piercing question: How do we become the kind of men to whom God can entrust His power?Let me remind you—this path was never promised to be easy. But I can assure you: it is profoundly worth it.Over time, a compelling pattern emerges. Through the consent by day and by decade to the narrow road of deep apprenticeship, transformation is no longer just a hope—it becomes a lived reality. I see it in the stories, again and again, from men being led by God into deeper wholeness and restoration through Becoming a King.What once felt like a headwind—marked by adversity, resistance, and battle—in time becomes a tailwind. The strength and care of a good Father, ever present, begins to nourish and sustain us.A Father who is for us, not against us. Having committed Himself to our well-being, He relentlessly pours Himself into our shepherding and our apprenticeship.He is our tailwind. And even in our trials, in the end, we will encounter His exceeding kindness.In this episode, we conclude this conversation with some compelling ideas, questions, and stories from Outposts of Eden around the globe, thanks to the strength lent by allies John Scott Mooring, Pablo Ceron, Ryan Ruebsahm, and Chris Rice.Together, we're looking deeper into the kind of King that Jesus is, and I want you to join us.It's all been prologue. The best is yet to come.For the Kingdom,Morgan and Cherie

On Thursday's Mark Levin Show, John Bolton has been indicted on 18 counts by a federal grand jury in Maryland for mishandling classified information, including 8 counts of transmission and 10 counts of retention of national defense information. But this indictment is not retribution but a serious breach by someone who knew better, despite the Biden administration previously dropping a related investigation. Also, Rep Elise Stefanik responded to a NY Times reporter's inquiry about her labeling Zohran Mamdani a jihadist.  She responded in the best way possible – “I call Zohran Mamdani a jihadist because he is. Zohran Mamdani is a raging antisemite.” NY Times wants to give Mamdani cover, just like they did with the Holocaust.  Later, there's a Wall Street Journal article portraying the Trump administration's IRS overhaul—installing allies in the criminal division and reducing lawyer involvement—as a means to politically probe left-leaning groups. It's necessary to investigate George Soros-funded organizations tied to terrorism, Marxism, and efforts to overthrow the U.S. and other nations. This move address serious threats beyond politics, and it's a good thing that the Treasury Secretary is pursuing it. Afterward, Democrat-led cities and states are defying federal immigration laws by declaring themselves sanctuaries. President Trump is going to have to invoke the Insurrection Act—used 28 times historically, such as by Eisenhower against segregationists—to counter resistance from governors and mayors who block ICE and incite violence.

For 13 days beginning on October 16, 1962 the world teetered on total nuclear destruction. Today, Dr. Renata Keller joins in to talk about the Cuban Missile Crisis, how it is depicted in the film 13 Days, and how the events played out in Latin America. This is a deep dive into arguably the most consequential two weeks in world history.About our guest:Dr. Renata Keller specializes in Latin American and Cold War history. Her second book, The Fate of the Americas: The Cuban Missile Crisis and the Hemispheric Cold War (UNC Press, 2025), uncovers how people and governments across the Americas caused, participated in, and were affected by the Cuban Missile Crisis. Her first book, Mexico's Cold War: Cuba, the United States, and the Legacy of the Mexican Revolution (Cambridge, 2015), explored how the Cuban Revolution transformed Mexico's domestic politics and international relations. It was awarded SECOLAS's Alfred B. Thomas Book Prize and honorable mentions for RMCLAS's Thomas McGann and Michael C. Meyer Prizes.She received her B.A. in History and Spanish from Arizona State University and her Ph.D. from the University of Texas at Austin. She taught international relations at Boston University for five years before joining the History Department at the University of Nevada in 2017. She has published journal articles in The Journal of Latin American Studies, The Journal of Cold War Studies, The Journal of Cold War History, The Latin American Research Review, Diplomatic History, Contexto Internacional, and Mexican Studies/Estudios Mexicanos, as well as popular articles in History Today and The Washington Post. Her research has received funding from the National Endowment for the Humanities, the Fulbright Foundation, the Social Science Research Council, the Philanthropic Educational Organization, the Kluge Center at the U.S. Library of Congress, the American Philosophical Society, and other institutions. She is co-editor of InterConnections: The Global Twentieth Century, a new book series at UNC Press that is home to innovative global, international, and transregional histories of the long twentieth century.She is also a dedicated educator. She teaches classes on modern Latin American history, Cuban history, the global Cold War, and drugs and security in the Americas. She also enjoys training the next generation of thinkers, historians, and history teachers in my classes on historical research and writing, historiography, historiography of the Americas, and her graduate research seminar on twentieth-century history.

In part two of this interview, historian Peter Kuznick — co-author (with Oliver Stone) of The Untold History of the United States — joins Barry Stevens to reflect on the USA's lost chances for peace. He traces a throughline from the sidelining of VP Henry Wallace to the aggressive Cold War policies of Eisenhower and Reagan, who, while avoiding outright nuclear war, escalated militarism to unprecedented levels. Today's panic over China, Kuznick argues, revives that same dangerous playbook — but with even fewer constraints and less public awareness.

Au début des années 1950, c'est pendant la guerre de Corée (1950-1953) que l'arme nucléaire a failli redevenir une arme de champ de bataille. Après l'offensive nord-coréenne de juin 1950, le débarquement d'Inchon permet aux forces de l'ONU, commandées par le général Douglas MacArthur, de reprendre l'avantage. Mais lorsque la Chine entre massivement dans la guerre à la fin de l'année, tout bascule : les troupes onusiennes reculent, Séoul est menacée, et l'état-major américain envisage des options jusque-là impensables.MacArthur propose alors de frapper les ponts et les bases chinoises en Mandchourie avec des bombes atomiques tactiques, afin de couper les lignes d'approvisionnement le long du fleuve Yalou. Il évoque même l'idée d'un « cordon sanitaire » radioactif, une zone contaminée rendant certains passages infranchissables pendant des mois. À Washington, le Conseil de sécurité nationale étudie sérieusement plusieurs scénarios d'emploi. Le Strategic Air Command met en alerte ses escadrons de bombardiers B-29, tandis que des composants de bombes sont discrètement transférés vers Guam et Okinawa. Des vols d'entraînement simulant des frappes nucléaires sont effectués — preuve que l'hypothèse n'était pas purement théorique.Mais à la Maison-Blanche, le président Harry Truman s'inquiète. Depuis 1949, l'Union soviétique possède elle aussi la bombe atomique. Employer l'arme en Corée risquerait de provoquer une riposte soviétique ou une escalade incontrôlable menant à une nouvelle guerre mondiale. Le Premier ministre britannique Clement Attlee, alarmé, se rend même à Washington en décembre 1950 pour dissuader les Américains de franchir la ligne rouge. Finalement, Truman tranche : il refuse l'usage du nucléaire et, face aux déclarations publiques de MacArthur en faveur d'un élargissement du conflit, le limoge le 11 avril 1951.Son successeur, le général Matthew Ridgway, parvient à stabiliser le front, et la guerre s'enlise dans une longue impasse. L'administration Eisenhower, en 1953, continuera d'agiter la menace nucléaire pour hâter les négociations, mais sans passer à l'acte. Le 27 juillet 1953, un armistice est signé à Panmunjom.Cet épisode reste un tournant majeur : pour la première fois, une puissance dotée de la bombe choisit l'autolimitation. Face au risque d'apocalypse, les États-Unis ont compris que le coût moral, politique et stratégique d'une frappe nucléaire dépassait de loin tout avantage militaire immédiat. Hébergé par Acast.

Dwight D. Eisenhower was born in Denison, Texas, in 1890. He was the President of the United States when I was born in Dallas, Texas, 68 years later.People called me “Little Roy.” People called him “Ike.”I worry that we have forgotten him.Ike Eisenhower graduated from the United States Military Academy in 1915 when he was 24 years old. His superiors noticed his organizational abilities, and appointed him commander of a tank training center during World War I.In 1933, he became aide to Army Chief of Staff General Douglas MacArthur, and in 1935 Ike went with him to the Philippines when MacArthur accepted the post of chief military adviser to that nation's government.On June 25, 1942, Ike Eisenhower was chosen over 366 senior officers to lead the Armed Forces of the United States in World War II.After proving himself on the battlefields of North Africa and Italy in 1942 and 1943, Ike Eisenhower was appointed supreme commander of Operation Overlord – the Allied invasion of northwestern Europe.Ike was now commanding the Armed Forces of all 49 Allied nations – including Great Britain, the Soviet Union, and China – in the war against Hitler and his minions. He personally planned and supervised two of the most consequential military campaigns of World War II: Operation Torch in the North Africa campaign in 1942–1943 and the invasion of Normandy in 1944.Ike Eisenhower never talked like a tough guy, but only a fool would call him “weak” or “woke.”This past July, Robert Reich – an eloquent and intelligent spokesperson on the left – quoted a passage from an anti-war speech that Ike Eisenhower made at the beginning of his presidency in 1953. Reich ended his quote just prior to Ike's unsettling reference to the crucifixion of Christ.Eloquent and intelligent people on the right refused to believe that a celebrated warrior had ever made a speech that could be classified as “anti-war.”Curious, I decided to get to the bottom of it.Here is a link to the complete transcript and original recording of the speech that President Dwight D. Eisenhower made before the American Society of Newspaper Editors on April 16, 1953, from the Statler Hotel in Washington, D.C.This is the passage from that speech that got everyone worked up:“Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired signifies, in the final sense, a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and are not clothed.This world in arms is not spending money alone.It is spending the sweat of its laborers, the genius of its scientists, the hopes of its children.The cost of one modern heavy bomber is this: a modern brick school in more than 30 cities.It is two electric power plants, each serving a town of 60,000 population.It is two fine, fully equipped hospitals, it is some 50 miles of concrete pavement.We pay for a single fighter plane with a half million bushels of wheat.We pay for a single destroyer with new homes that could have housed more than 8,000 people.This is, I repeat, the best way of life to be found on the road the world has been taking.This is not a way of life at all, in any true sense. Under the cloud of threatening war, it is humanity hanging from a cross of iron.”The title of that speech was originally “Chance for Peace,” but due to the vivid mental image contained in the middle of the speech, it quickly became known as the “Cross of Iron” speech.Words have impact when they contain vivid mental images.I own guns, but I am not a hunter. Neither my family nor my friends have ever seen my guns. But in the unlikely event of a home invasion, I am adequately prepared to protect

Ignite the resistance, truth warriors—@intheMatrixxx and @shadygroove, the relentless exposers of Deep State deceptions, charge into Season 7, Episode 192, “James Comey Pleads Not Guilty; Bigger Slam-Dunk Charges Coming?,” airing October 08, 2025, at 12:05 PM Eastern, as the disgraced ex-FBI boss defiantly enters his plea in Alexandria federal court on charges of lying to Congress and obstructing justice over 2020 testimony denying media leaks—indicted last month by a Trump-backed grand jury under U.S. Attorney Lindsey Halligan amid White House demands for accountability, with his team already plotting a dismissal motion claiming "malicious prosecution" while critics decry the irony of Comey swearing not guilty under oath for allegedly lying under oath, fueling speculation on whether this weak defense cracks open the floodgates for ironclad follow-ups tied to Russia hoax origins and Crossfire Hurricane abuses. Bucking MSM narratives painting this as Trumpian revenge, the duo tears into Narrative Setters getting called out for scripting elite cover-ups, Tyler Bowyer forced to defend Turning Point USA amid post-Kirk assassination smears and doxxing scandals targeting student chapters, unpacks fresh Q proofs from year-old deltas aligning eerily with today's headlines like Comey's courtroom drama and border surges, and spotlights Hour 2's must-watch: FBI Director Kash Patel joining Sean Hannity to detail purging corrupt DC insiders and crushing violent crime per Trump's mandate, while questioning federalized troops' role in stopping America's cartel-ravaged zones—not a new play, as history proves with Eisenhower's 1957 deployment of the 101st Airborne to enforce desegregation at Little Rock's Central High amid Arkansas defiance, echoing Tennessee's Civil Rights flashpoints where National Guard federalization quelled mob violence for justice. With real-time X fire on Americans targeted in cartel hellholes and Jesse Watters praising DHS Sec. Kristi Noem's massive results—zero migrant releases for five months straight, 94% crossing drops, and threats to flood Portland with four times the feds if sanctuary sabotage persists—they rally patriots against establishment spin, arming you to demand real accountability from weaponized agencies to border heroes.

They call themselves "The Family" but also go by several other names. They are one of, if not THE most secret societies in the U.S.  They ran the National Prayer Breakfast for decades and became massively wealthy, powerfully connected and branched out across the world.  Who are they? Why are they so secret and what is their goal? The answers are hard to come by but from what we've found... it isn't good!Email us at: downtherh@protonmail.com

From the archives, we talk to the author of a book titled "Carlisle vs. Army" which tells the story of an epic football game back in 1912 that had participants such as future Olympic gold medalist Jim Thorpe, future president and general Dwight D. Eisenhower, and renowned football coach Pop Warner. In part two, also from the archives, we talk with the author of a series of books for young readers that tells the story of some extraordinary athletes.

EASY LISTENING DEP'T.: There is no job report from the Bureau of Labor Statistics this morning. The numbers were reportedly compiled but are not being released, due to the government shutdown. Surely this is a neutral logistical decision on the bureau's part, and the numbers would stay in a file drawer even if they were positive for the Trump administration's economic performance, which most forecasters expected they would not be, or are not. Not sure what tense to use for data that exists but can't be seen. Please visit, read, and support INDIGNITY! https://www.indignity.net/

The Real Ambassadors is a poignant tale of cultural exchange, anti-racism, and jazz history. And it's a love story — between life-long husband and wife partners, Iola & Dave Brubeck and their vision for a better world. Appalled by the racist treatment of Black jazz musicians in the United States in the 1950s and 60s, the Brubecks wrote a musical based on the Jazz Ambassadors Program established by President Eisenhower and the US State Department during the Cold War. In an effort to win hearts and minds, jazz musicians were sent out around the world to represent the freedom and creativity of America through their art form. Louis Armstrong, Dizzy Gillespie and most of the other Jazz Ambassadors were Black. The irony is that they were treated like royalty around the world, but could not stay in hotels or play in integrated bands in their own country.Performed live only once, at the Monterey Jazz Festival in 1962, the Real Ambassadors featured Louis Armstrong, Carmen McCrae, Dave Brubeck and Lambert Hendricks and Bavan. The musical was a chance for Louis Armstrong to speak out about his deep feelings about racism and segregation in this country — feelings he rarely expressed publicly.The story features original music, rare archival recorded letters sent back and forth between the Brubecks and Louis Armstrong about the project, rehearsal recordings and interviews with Dave and Iola Brubeck. Other voices include: the Brubecks' sons, Chris and Dan Brubeck, Keith Hatschek, author of the  book, "The Real Ambassadors,” Ricky Riccardi, Director of Research Collections for the Louis Armstrong House Museum, and singer/actress Yolande Bavan, the last surviving performer involved in the project.Thanks to: Keith Hatschek, Chris Brubeck, Dan Brubeck, Ricky Riccardi, Yolande Bavan,  Lisa Cohen, and Wynton Marsalis.Special thanks to: The Louis Armstrong Educational Foundation and the Louis Armstrong House Museum; Michael Bellacosa and the Brubeck Collection, Wilton Library, Wilton, Connecticut; The Complete Louis Armstrong Columbia & RCA Victor Studio Sessions 1946-66 Mosaic Records 270; The Milken Family Foundation Archive Oral History Project; and The Library of Congress.Produced by The Kitchen Sisters (Nikki Silva and Davia Nelson) and Brandi Howell in collaboration with Jackson Spenner.
