Sometimes life feels like a freak show, and the sane can either take it in or turn away. This week gave us more glimpses of horror than usual, which tends to make folks more amenable to harsh punishments. James, Steve, and Charles consider the death penalty in light of the heinous crime of an unsuccessfully executed Tennessee woman; they wade through the cloudy "Cornell Seven" case and draw important distinctions between moral depravity and criminality; and they look to riots in France and wonder whether la République and la révolution will ever square themselves in l'Hexagone. Plus, Charles has an announcement about Ricochet 5.0! Sound from this week's open: Marine Le Pen responds to the riots in France. And our own John Yoo talks about execution methods on Fox News.Closing music: "Waltz for the Elephants" by Ziv GrinbergBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-ricochet-podcast--5817275/support.

The international break is here, but for Africa and South America it means two very different things.Dotun Adebayo is joined by Tim Vickery and Maher Mezahi to look beyond the usual international-break headlines and explain what is really at stake across two continents.In Africa, qualification for AFCON 2027 begins. Nigeria start their campaign without Victor Osimhen, while Madagascar provide a reminder of just how quickly the balance of power is changing across African football.Maher explains the role academies and diaspora players are playing in that change, from Cape Verde and Comoros to Madagascar and Mali, and why getting player development right in Africa is far more complicated than simply copying the European model.There is also a huge opening fixture between Côte d'Ivoire and Ghana. Hervé Renard is back with the Elephants and beginning a new generation, while Carlos Queiroz remains in charge of a Ghana side facing a rebuild of its own.Then Tim takes us to South America, where attention has already turned towards the 2030 World Cup.What happens to Argentina after Lionel Messi? Who becomes South America's next great number 10? And can Carlo Ancelotti rebuild a Brazil side that now needs something it once produced almost automatically: midfielders capable of controlling matches?Plus, why the unusual format of the 2030 World Cup could completely change South American qualifying, and why national teams outside Europe are finding it increasingly difficult to organise meaningful international friendlies.Featuring: Dotun Adebayo, Tim Vickery and Maher Mezahi.Subscribe to FC Camisa for the Brazilian Shirt Name Podcast, Futebol & Football and more.FC Camisa | Football's story, told properly.
What happens if Republicans get crushed in November? Political scientist Seth Masket joins me to game out where the GOP goes after a midterm wipeout, and where it could take the rest of us.The polls suggest a blue wave is building, and Republicans have started putting a little distance between themselves and an unpopular president. But Seth's research shows that Democrats over-correct after they lose, while Republicans under-correct, and lately some deny the loss happened at all. So does a big defeat finally break Trump's hold on the party, or do Republicans end up needing him even more?In this episode:The one time Trump's favorability with Republicans actually dropped. It wasn't January 6th or his conviction.Why the window for Republicans to criticize Trump closes soon after November 3rdA Trump endorsement was worth about 16 points in 2022 GOP primariesIs Trump a "Giffen good" for Republican politicians? Seth grades my theory live.Three reasons Republicans stay loyal: primaries, political violence, and policyThe Nikki Haley third of the party that is waiting for Trump to leave the stageCould Rubio or Vance hold together both MAGA voters and traditional Republicans?What Democrats are learning, or not learning, from 2024Why corruption could be Democrats' strongest issue once they have subpoena powerOur midterm predictions: CO-8 and MO-2Seth Masket is a political scientist at the University of Denver and the author of The Elephants in the Room and Learning from Loss.

New Zealanders are working. The economy is growing. So why aren’t we getting much more out of it? For more than a decade, New Zealand’s productivity growth has been painfully weak – and that could be one of the biggest economic problems facing the next Government. But you wouldn’t necessarily know it from the election campaign. The parties are promising tax cuts, more housing, cheaper groceries, changes to immigration and more spending on public services. But how many of those policies will actually make New Zealand more productive? Today on The Front Page, University of Otago economics associate professor Dennis Wesselbaum reckons productivity is the economic elephant in the room this election. He joins us now. Follow The Front Page on iHeartRadio, Apple Podcasts, Spotify or wherever you get your podcasts.

How to Train an Elephant explores one of the enemy's most strategic tactics: convincing us we are powerless. Just as an elephant can be trained to believe it cannot break free even when it has the strength to do so, Satan can use rejection, isolation, failure, temptation, grief, and disappointment to train us to live beneath the freedom and strength we have in Christ. The series is like a manual written to a circus master/devil of how to keep a giant and strong animal in captivity. Through the life of David, we'll discover what it looks like to develop spiritual resilience, refuse to stay stuck, and remember that we are far stronger in Christ than the enemy wants us to believe. Because you don't have to live captive to what has held you - you were created to live free and fulfill the purpose God has given you.At Discover Church, we exist to see our city changed by Jesus, one life at a time, by helping people discover LIFE in Christ, BELONGING in Community & PURPOSE in God's Calling on their life so that they can MAKE A DIFFERENCE.-You can join us live on Sunday mornings at 9:00 or 11:00 am, either in person or online!

A podcast live recording from The Big Romance about the Chemical Brothers second album, - a 1997 dance record classic with guest Mango. When I think of The Chemical Brothers, I think of Irish summer festivals and big nights out. The pure, kinetic energy of thousands of people losing their minds in a field or a packed arena. Released in April 1997, Dig Your Own Hole was the album that cemented Tom Rowlands and Ed Simons as electronic music's first true rock stars. Coming up to its 30th anniversary, it remains a landmark achievement: a psychedelic, acid-drenched dance record built out of hip-hop breaks, sirens, samplers, and raw punk attitude. With crossover chart hits like ‘Block Rockin' Beats', ‘Electrobank', ‘Setting Sun' and the euphoric closer ‘Private Psychedelic Reel' the album balances dancefloor power with adventurous studio experimentation.

My Gateway into Dance Music For me, this album was the gateway. I bought it on CD while on holiday with my parents in Boston in 1999. Before that, my exposure to electronic music was strictly Scooter, along with hearing 'Life Is Sweet' on those iconic Best Album in the World... Ever! compilation CDs. In his seminal book Energy Flash, critic Simon Reynolds described the Chemical Brothers' signature sound as "Britpop-with-breakbeats." They brought a punk-like assault to techno by emphasizing the same blaring mid-frequencies supplied by distorted rock guitars While the American press tried to brand it as the "electronica" revolution, calling Tom and Ed the "Beavis and Butt-head of techno", the duo pushed back, citing US hip-hop and Chicago house pioneers like Frankie Knuckles, Juan Atkins, and The Bomb Squad as their true north stars. 5 Things You Might Not Know About Dig Your Own Hole 1. Built for the Sunday Social Before they were headlining arenas, Tom and Ed were "The Three Blind Mice" at Manchester University—studying medieval history by day and hitting the Haçienda four nights a week. Their legendary 13-week residency at Heavenly's Sunday Social in London transformed UK club culture, with regulars like Oasis, Blur, Primal Scream, and the Manics coming to watch them blend hip-hop, acid house, and psych-rock. 2. "Setting Sun" Broke BBC Radio 1 Noel Gallagher wrote and recorded his vocal in 20 minutes after hearing the duo spin The Beatles' 'Tomorrow Never Knows' in a sweaty basement set. When the single dropped, BBC Radio 1's Breakfast Show famously pulled it off air halfway through because it was too intense for morning radio—which only helped propel it to UK #1. 3. Recorded in a 10x10 Room at Orinoco Studios Recorded in Elephant & Castle (the same studio complex where Enya's "Orinoco Flow" got its name and Gaye Bykers on Acid recorded Drill Your Own Hole), the album was field-tested in clubs using white-label promos (Electronic Battle Weapons 1 & 2) before the final tracking. 4. A Pencil and Sellotape Created the Phase Effect on "The Private Psychedelic Reel" To get the sweeping phase effect on the 9-minute closer, Tom and Ed sellotaped a pencil across a bank of mixing desk faders to move them simultaneously by hand into a Mu-Tron Bi-Phase processor. 5. Mercury Rev's Unexpected Cameo Jonathan Donahue played clarinet on 'The Private Psychedelic Reel.' He later credited the Chemical Brothers' invitation as the lifeline that kept him making music right before Mercury Rev wrote their breakthrough album, Deserter's Songs.

Relationships are complicated, and we often put an incredible amount of weight on our relationship status. But marriage, singleness, divorce, and every season in between were never meant to define us. Open to 1st Corinthians 7 as Pr.

The Elephant In The Room Property Podcast | Inside Australian Real Estate
Australia knows it needs to build more homes. But if construction is already operating close to capacity, where will the extra housing actually come from?HIA senior economist Tom Devitt joins Veronica and Chris to unpack the constraints holding the industry back and why simply calling for more supply misses the complexity of getting homes built. The conversation covers skilled labour shortages, planning and approvals, land and infrastructure costs, construction productivity, prefab housing and the shift towards medium-density development. Tom also explains why Sydney and Melbourne have struggled to recover, while WA, Queensland and South Australia have performed more strongly.They also examine the fallout from changes to negative gearing and SMSF borrowing, including the risk that relatively small numbers of affected apartment sales could have a much larger impact on project financing. And with rental vacancy rates around 1%, Tom challenges the idea that investors are the problem, arguing that Australia needs more rental accommodation, not less.From stamp duty and development feasibility to the difference between the real estate market and the underlying housing market, this conversation gets into the structural issues that will determine whether Australia can actually close its housing supply gap.Episode Highlights01:39 – Meet HIA Economist Tom Devitt02:14 – Why Australia Still Can't Build Enough Homes04:13 – The Skilled Trades Shortage Holding Housing Back07:01 – Why Construction Workers Are Being Pulled Elsewhere10:35 – Prefab Won't Solve the Housing Shortage Alone13:08 – How the SMSF Ban Could Sink Entire Projects17:03 – The Housing Finance Fallout From the SMSF Ban19:36 – Are Buyers Losing Confidence in New Housing?22:44 – Why Sydney and Melbourne Are Falling Behind25:32 – Are We Really Measuring Construction Productivity?30:46 – Why Builders Are Going Under Despite Strong Demand34:17 – Why Some New Housing Simply Doesn't Stack Up36:59 – Why Medium-Density Housing Could Be the Sweet Spot39:58 – The Housing Fundamentals That Eventually Win41:44 – The Rental Crisis Needs More Investors, Not FewerAbout the GuestTom Devitt is a senior economist at the Housing Industry Association (HIA), where he works on the economic conditions shaping Australia's residential construction industry. His work includes analysing housing construction forecasts, industry capacity, labour shortages, planning constraints and the impact of government policy on new housing.Tom brings an industry-focused economic perspective to the housing supply debate, looking beyond headline targets to examine what actually determines whether a home gets built. In this episode, he discusses construction capacity, skilled trades shortages, development feasibility, planning reform, rental supply and the effects of recent policy changes affecting property investment and housing finance.Connect with TomLinkedIn | Tom DevittLinkedIn | HIAResourcesVisit our website: https://www.theelephantintheroom.com.auIf you have any questions or would like to be featured on our show, contact us at:The Elephant in the Room Property Podcast - questions@theelephantintheroom.com.auLooking for a Sydney Buyers Agent? https://www.gooddeeds.com.auWork with Veronica: https://www.veronicamorgan.com.auLooking for a Mortgage Broker? alcove.com.auWork with Chris: chrisbates@alcove.com.auEnjoyed the podcast?

Have Americans given up a sense of virtue in their political leaders? What does character mean when so-called “authenticity” is prized over moral goodness? As publisher of The Bulwark and host of The Focus Group podcast, Sarah Longwell has thought long and hard about these questions. When she was a young conservative growing up in the ‘90s, she applauded Republicans who held then-President Bill Clinton to task for his moral failings. “I was very attracted to the idea that character counted,” she tells Kerri Miller on this week's Big Books and Bold Ideas. “In the years post-Clinton, that idea of virtue or character really was animating for the right — at least in their rhetoric. So it was deeply shocking to me, when Donald Trump came on the scene, to see every Republican I knew, both personally and who I had admired from afar, fall in line.” Click hereLongwell's new book, “How to Eat an Elephant: One Voter at a Time,” is a call for pro-democracy groups to unite and push back against authoritarianism. Her thesis is built upon hundreds of focus groups she's conducted since President Trump was elected — with Republicans, Democrats, Independents and the politically homeless — where she's heard voters say that character just isn't the deal breaker that it used to be. “But I do think for America to have a better moral line of what we'll tolerate,” she says. “It will require a [candidate] to come in and — not pretend to be perfect — but they should lean hard into the idea that we can be better than this.” Guest:Sarah Longwell is publisher of The Bulwark and host of The Focus Group podcast. Her new book, “How to Eat an Elephant: One Voter at a Time,” is already a New York Times bestseller.Subscribe to Big Books and Bold Ideas with Kerri Miller on Apple Podcasts, Google Podcasts, RSS or anywhere you get your podcasts.Subscribe to the Thread newsletter for the latest book and author news and must-read recommendations.
Captain Hannah has found people who can reshape a spaceship with their minds, but their astonishing powers come with the judgment of ordinary kids. When a helpful teenager starts “giffling” with the Delta Crucis, Hannah realizes that getting home may be easier than surviving the repairs. When You Giffle… by Joseph Wesley. That's next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast. When You Giffle… appeared under author Joseph Wesley's pseudonym, L. J. Stecher Jr. Wesley used that name for stories in Galaxy Science Fiction and Worlds of Tomorrow, while A Matter of Taste appeared in If under his real name. And if Captain Hannah sounds familiar, there's a reason. Wesley had already put Hannah and his ship, the Delta Crucis, through another wonderfully ridiculous adventure in An Elephant for the Prinkip and Cakewalk to Gloryanna. This time Hannah encounters children who can swim through space, walk through solid objects, and alter matter with their minds. They're incredibly powerful—but they're still kids. From the December 1963 issue of Worlds of Tomorrow on page 103, When You Giffle… by Joseph Wesley. Next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast, A fortune stands just out of reach, and one beautifully crafted Martian necklace seems capable of removing the only person standing in the way. But a perfect murder requires more than the perfect weapon when someone else knows exactly what that necklace can do. Murderer's Chain by Wenzell Brown.

More than two decades after its short-lived original Broadway run, the musical adaptation of JANE EYRE has finally received its UK professional premiere. Starring Charlie Burn and Ashley Gilmour, the production is running for a limited time at Southwark Playhouse Elephant and is co-directed by John Caird and Megan McGinnis.

Don't make your audience wait for the ask... Most presentations end with some kind of commitment: buying a product, accepting an idea, embracing change, or taking action. What if, instead of waiting until the end to reveal what you want from your audience, you planted the seed for that commitment at the beginning? In this Pocket Sized Pep Talk, Rob explains how foreshadowing your call to action can reduce tension, give your audience time to consider the commitment, and make your close feel more natural. It's a simple shift that turns the elephant in the room into something you can confidently address from the very start. In this Pocket Sized Pep Talk, you'll learn: • Why most presentations involve some type of commitment from the audience, whether it's buying, changing, supporting, or taking action. • How the unspoken commitment can become an “elephant in the room” that creates tension for both the presenter and the audience. • Why Rob recommends planting a seed for the commitment during the first few minutes of a presentation. • The difference between W.I.F.M. — “What's in it for me?” — and W.D.Y.E.F.M. — “What do you expect from me?” • How telling your audience what you'll be asking of them gives them time to think, process, and raise questions before the close. • Why foreshadowing the commitment can make your final call to action feel less like a surprise and more like a natural next step. • How to confidently point out the elephant in the room instead of pretending it isn't there.

George "Joby" Walters grew up in Ohio, joined the Army, and developed a passion for mechanics and motorcycles before joining the Avengers Motorcycle Club in Alabama. After an injury pushed him away from the club, he eventually landed in Arizona, where he patched into the Hells Angels in the late 1990s and became close personal friends with the legendary Sonny Barger. Over the next decade, Joby found himself in the middle of violent conflicts with rival clubs including the Mongols and Vagos and was present at the infamous Harrah's Casino riot in Laughlin, Nevada, on April 27, 2002, when the Hells Angels and Mongols clashed in one of the most notorious biker confrontations in American history. In the aftermath, he went on the run to Mexico, eventually took a plea deal that sent him to prison, and ultimately made the decision to walk away from the Hells Angels after 10 years. Now, Joby is telling the complete story of what life inside one of the world's most notorious motorcycle clubs was really like — from brotherhood and loyalty to violence, prison, and what it took to finally leave it behind. _____________________________________________ Thank you to HUNGRYROOT, AG1 & CASH APP for sponsoring this episode: Hungryroot: Explore my Hungryroot Digital Cookbook "THE COMMISSARY UPGRADE" at https://hungryroot.com/LOCKEDIN _____________________________________________ AG1: For a limited time, save 20% on your first subscription order of AG1 Next Gen or AG1 Pro at https://drinkag1.com/lockedin _____________________________________________ Cash App: Download Cash App Today: https://click.cash.app/ui6m/6pao71et #CashAppPod Cash App is a financial services platform, not a bank.

How to Train an Elephant explores one of the enemy's most strategic tactics: convincing us we are powerless. Just as an elephant can be trained to believe it cannot break free even when it has the strength to do so, Satan can use rejection, isolation, failure, temptation, grief, and disappointment to train us to live beneath the freedom and strength we have in Christ. The series is like a manual written to a circus master/devil of how to keep a giant and strong animal in captivity. Through the life of David, we'll discover what it looks like to develop spiritual resilience, refuse to stay stuck, and remember that we are far stronger in Christ than the enemy wants us to believe. Because you don't have to live captive to what has held you - you were created to live free and fulfill the purpose God has given you.At Discover Church, we exist to see our city changed by Jesus, one life at a time, by helping people discover LIFE in Christ, BELONGING in Community & PURPOSE in God's Calling on their life so that they can MAKE A DIFFERENCE.-You can join us live on Sunday mornings at 9:00 or 11:00 am, either in person or online!

What if weaving released untold stories? And how does textile art with such narrative yet abstract powers fit into contemporary art and its traditionally European systems? Joana's conversation with contemporary artist Paula do Prado takes unexpected turns and spreads across at least 3 different continents–if not more. What influence did the lost language of the Charrúa people and her Uruguayan past and lineage have on her work? Or, rather, is it even possible to locate the intuitive, dreamt and compulsive patterns and figures that emerge from her fingers, without any preconceived sketches or pre-established patterns?

We live in a world that is really good at renaming things. We don't lie; we stretch the truth. We don't gossip; we're just sharing a concern. We're not losing our temper; we're venting. But changing the label doesn't change what's underneath. Open to 1st Corinthians 5 as Pr. Keith challenges us to stop renaming sin and allow Christ's transformation to redefine our lives.
Recorded on Monday, Sept. 14 and the Commonwealth Club in San Francisco, Sarah and Pod Save America's Dan Pfeiffer discuss her book, How to Eat an Elephant, what focus groups are, why she does them, and she uncorks some fresh focus group content on-stage.

After Donald Trump won the 2024 election, Sarah Longwell did what she's done nearly every week for the past eight years: She sat down with voters. She conducted hundreds of focus groups, listening to thousands of ordinary Americans―Republicans, Democrats, and the politically homeless―with the goal of understanding politics through the eyes of the people who will decide our country's future. American voters, and what they want for their country, are at the heart of her new book How to Eat an Elephant. Longwell, the founder of The Bulwark and a popular political communicator, lays out the playbook for building a coalition big enough, bold enough, and tough enough to defeat authoritarian populism for good. Not with a single election. Not by doing another poll or debating the benefits of being more progressive or more moderate, but by building something new: A modern pro-democracy movement that can create its own communications infrastructure―just like the right has done for decades―achieve narrative dominance, elevate more compelling leaders, and talk to voters like adults. Drawing on her own unlikely political journey from a lesbian Republican operative to the vanguard of the anti-MAGA movement, Longwell makes an argument that is equal parts war manual and pep talk―with her personal and professional story woven throughout. With her trademark bluntness and humor, she explains exactly how we got here and, more important, what we must build next―all while directly quoting the most important but overlooked people in the country: the voters themselves. Join us as she answers the question: How do you eat an elephant? One voter at a time, she says. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

The Hidden Lightness with Jimmy Hinton – The United States has now surpassed $40 trillion in national debt, while the federal budget deficit is approaching $2 trillion for the current fiscal year. A $5,000 check may sound appealing, but Americans deserve a serious conversation about where the money comes from, what it does to inflation, and what happens to the debt afterward.

Trump dismisses the AI CEOs at Anthropic, OpenAI, and xAI who are calling for a "global slowdown" of AI development, saying the only government regulation the industry needs is a "high IQ" president. Jon, Tommy, and Lovett break down the "sick conspiracy" claim the administration and tech investors have leveled at AI makers, the recent developments that united Dario Amodei, Sam Altman, and Elon Musk, and the chances that meaningful AI regulation could pass before the election or in a lame-duck Congress. Then they turn to AI's impact on the 2028 presidential election, a Russian oligarch's unusual involvement in Donald Trump Jr.'s wedding festivities, and the worst Republicans on and off the ballot in Texas. Then, Sarah Longwell, publisher of The Bulwark, stops by the studio to talk to Jon about her new book, "How to Eat an Elephant."Hate listening to ads?
