Self-improvement is a process, it's not black or white. We need to break the idea of all or nothing when it comes to bettering ourselves.

We start with a little bit on last week's controversy about LTW's dad repeatedly dying, and then it's on to an episode that -- sorry -- had a number of enjoyable things! There's a solid bit of farce over Charlotte's birthday party and what sad thing she's dealing with, a bunch of losers who don't want to do karaoke (and then suddenly do), Patti LuPone guesting as an Italian shrink mom, Lilly gets dumped, Carrie and the British Biographer verbally 69 about each other's writing, and we get a wacky party Miranda that we simply love. Don't worry: we hate plenty of stuff too! Fun for everyone. More fun for everyone? Over on patreon.com/kevinandjon!

What's the world coming to Trawlers? Yes, the news cycle is astoundingly awful but, as ever, Jemma and Marina nominate themselves to wade through what's happening so they can chat all through with you. They begin by paying tribute to Liverpool player Diogo Jota and his brother Andre Silva who sadly died in a car crash. For some reason, Trump is very anti finding the Epstein files which, after months and months of painstaking investigation have seemingly disappeared along with the much mooted client list. Hmm, it begs the question, if there weren't any clients, what's Ghislaine Maxwell in jail for? The plot thickens and even some of the most loyal MAGA loons aren't happy as it appears Trump is OK about protecting a paedophile ring. Meanwhile, Netanyahu has nominated him for a Nobel Peace Prize. The clip of the two war-mongering fellas will render your speechless but fortunately Marina and Jemma do manage to find some words. Some are quite choice. There are some domestic updates too and some ponderings over Richard Tice's wallpaper and, as ever, the under rated tweets section provides some levity. Pudding is Cody Dahler - Enjoy!

Ross Douthat confronts Peter Thiel with the possibility that he is the anti-Christ. Zohran Mamdani shows a model for politics that the media fears. The Democrats' Project 2029 is a farce that shows leaders of the party don't actually want to win. Fascist public policy is here, and it's class war. According to Gallup, even most Americans think US hegemony sucks. The Pentagon's Elbridge Colby just halted missile shipments to Ukraine so that the US can more readily fight a war against China that it just can't win. Why European elites are embarrassing themselves. Subscribe to the Un-Diplomatic Newsletter: https://www.un-diplomatic.com/ Watch Un-Diplomatic Podcast on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@un-diplomaticpodcast Catch Un-Diplomatic on Twitch: https://www.twitch.tv/undiplomaticpodcast Disclaimer: The views expressed are those of the individuals and not of any institutions.

Nach drastischen Kürzungen hat die US-Entwicklungshilfebehörde USAID ihre Arbeit am Dienstag offiziell eingestellt. Ex-US-Präsident Obama sprach von einer „Farce und Tragödie“.

David hosted this underappreciated (or maybe properly appreciated) All-Benchwarmer game. We had trivia that was powered by Ancestry.com, where we learned that Kobe Bryant could be 3rd cousins with Steve Nash (but unlikely). The teams discussed who might voice Pablo Sandoval in a cartoon tribute to the mid-2010s San Francisco Giants. There was an early discussion of Mason appearing on Naked and Afraid - The Game Show. Most importantly, we learned that, like George McFly, David doesn't know the difference between density and destiny (or dynasty). #farce #ruebenrandle #eyeroll #ancestrydotcom #kobebryant #stevenash #pablosandoval #nakedandafraid #georgemccfly https://dobosdelights.com/ Promo Code: CheckYourTaint https://www.patreon.com/benchwarmerstp https://www.facebook.com/benchwarmerstp https://www.twitter.com/benchwarmerstp https://www.instagram.com/benchwarmerstp/ https://www.teepublic.com/stores/benchwarmers-trivia-podcast

Es war einer der folgenschwersten Anschläge auf die Weimarer Republik: Am 24. Juni 1922 wurde der deutsche Außenminister Walther Rathenau von Mitgliedern der rechtsradikalen Organisation Consul in Berlin ermordet. Die Attentäter flüchteten und wurden erst Wochen später in Thüringen aufgespürt. Beim Zugriff starb einer von ihnen durch eine Polizeikugel, einer durch Suizid, die anderen wurden im Herbst 22 vor dem Staatsgerichtshof zu eher moderaten Haftstrafen verurteilt. Deutlich weniger öffentliches Interesse als dieser Hauptprozess zog zweieinhalb Jahre später ein weiteres Verfahren gegen zwei Helfer auf sich. Einen größeren Bericht fanden wir lediglich im sozialdemokratischen Hamburger Echo vom 29. Juni 1925, der sich über das Strafmaß (Freispruch bzw. vier Jahre Haft) gegen die beiden Angeklagten und die Argumentation der Richter in blanke Ironie flüchtet. Beinahe unnötig zu ergänzen, dass auch der verurteilte Günther Brandt nur einen Bruchteil der Strafe tatsächlich absitzen musste. Später im NS-Staat machte er Karriere u.a. im Rassenpolitischen Amt der NSDAP sowie beim Sicherheitsdienst des Reichsführers SS, nach dem Krieg praktizierte er als Facharzt für Innere Medizin. Es liest Frank Riede.

In a special twist for this episode, David interviews Mark-Eugene Garcia during a Friday the 13th birthday book signing celebrating the publication of his three plays: With Bated Breath, Eight Tales of Pedro, and Goat Blood. They dive into Mark-Eugene's two-decade journey as a Chicano playwright—from his first musical Up in the Air, which evolved into the wild, sex-fueled satire With Bated Breath, to his current work exploring Latine stories rooted in heritage, myth, and horror. Joining them are Sergio Caetano and Hraban Luyat, two original cast members from Goat Blood, who give a chilling live performance of the play's opening scene. The featured works span a mythic border-crossing folktale (Eight Tales of Pedro), a monster thriller layered with grief and identity (Goat Blood), and a surreal small-town comedy about religious repression and pharmaceutical chaos (With Bated Breath). It's a rich conversation about storytelling, culture, performance, and the monsters—real and metaphorical—that shape us. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Geht es nach Innenminister Alexander Dobrindt, sollten Asylsuchende auch an der Grenze nach Österreich zurückgewiesen werden. Der Migrationsforscher Gerald Knaus erklärt im Podcast, warum das aber nur selten passiert. Deutschland und Österreich teilen sich eine rund 800 Kilometer lange Grenze von Tschechien bis an den Bodensee. Geht es nach Innenminister Alexander Dobrindt, müssten Asylsuchende an den Übergängen dort systematisch zurückgewiesen werden. Daran will Dobrindt auch nach dem Beschluss des Berliner Verwaltungsgerichts festhalten, das die Zurückweisung von drei Somaliern auf deutschem Staatsgebiet für rechtswidrig erklärt hatte. Praktisch aber, sagt der Migrationsforscher Gerald Knaus, werden Asylsuchende auf deutschem Boden nach wie vor nur selten zurückgewiesen. Das gelte sowohl an der österreichischen als auch an der polnischen oder tschechischen Grenze. »Das Ganze ist ein bisschen ein Theater, eine Farce«, so Knaus. Im Podcast »Inside Austria« spricht der Migrationsexperte darüber, wie die deutsche Debatte zur »Asylwende« in Österreich wahrgenommen wird. Wie sinnvoll nationale Alleingänge wie Zurückweisungen oder verstärkte Grenzkontrollen überhaupt sind. Und warum Österreich – trotz scharfer politischer Rhetorik in der Migrationspolitik – verhältnismäßig viele Asylsuchende aufgenommen hat. In der Podcast-Serie Inside Austria rekonstruieren der SPIEGEL und der österreichische STANDARD gemeinsam Fälle, Skandale und politische Abgründe in Österreich.

Today's episode of the Church & Culture Podcast is quite different from the norm. This summer, we're taking a short break from our regular podcast format, and instead have selected various installments from past message series given by James Emery White at Mecklenburg Community Church where he serves as the Senior Pastor. There is no doubt that today's culture has become incredibly polarized - particularly when it comes to politics. That's why many churches avoid the topic altogether. It's also why we named this series at Meck "Where Angels Fear to Tread: Meck Talks Politics." Because church members often have questions like: Does God take political sides and, if so, which ones? Is America a Christian nation and is that even the goal? Are there values meant to guide us when it comes to politics? Do all Christians, if they are truly Christian, have to vote the same way? Does embracing the Christian faith automatically lead you to one particular political party? What if, as a Christian, you feel politically homeless - too conservative for the progressives, and too progressive for the conservatives? In this installment Dr. White explores the mark of a Christian and how we are called to engage the political realm. Episode Links Below you'll find the link to the full series if that's something you are interested in checking out, along with the sources that were used in the development of the message itself: "Where Angels Fear to Tread: Meck Talks Politics" The Apology of Tertullian, AD 197. Francis Schaeffer, The Mark of the Christian. Robert Corin Morris, “The Christians are Fighting – Again,” Weavings, Volume XXII, Number 2, March/April 2007, pp. 24-32. Joy Davidman, Smoke on the Mountain (Philadelphia: Westminster, 1953/1954), pp. 77-78. Jennifer Senior, “The Ginsburg-Scalia Act Was Not a Farce,” The New York Times, September 22, 2020.

Scoot and James from Harvey have an interesting conversation about the misinformation about the Juneteenth holiday.

In this powerful and wide-ranging conversation, Margaret Kimberley—senior columnist at Black Agenda Report and a leader in Black Alliance for Peace—joins Breht to dissect the spectacle of American decline and, as usual, Kimberley offers a razor-sharp analysis of late-stage capitalism's collapse into cruelty, chaos, and confusion. Together, they explore the Democratic Party's complicity in ushering in this moment, U.S. weapons transfers to Ukraine in support of their proxy war against Russia, and the genocidal assault on Gaza as a revealing - if disturbing - lens into the true nature of the American empire. Kimberley also shares firsthand insights from delegations to Nicaragua, Venezuela, and China, illuminating how the Global South is resisting U.S. domination and reshaping global power. For those feeling the weight of worsening economic conditions, rising fascism, and political demobilization, Kimberley offers hard-won wisdom about organizing in the belly of the beast. We close with discussion about where real hope can still be found.

No, I'm not amused. Today's Trump vs Musk social media wrestling fiasco is one more example of how digital media is actually bemusing ourselves to death. Walter Lippmann, the brilliant but emotionally detached journalist who coined the term "stereotype," foresaw this nightmare a century ago. Lippmann's intellectual biographer Tom Arnold-Forster explains how Lippmann's theories about "manufactured consent" and the manipulation of public opinion by media barons anticipated everything from the Trump-Musk social media feuds to dehumanizing AI-generated content. Lippmann identified democracy's central paradox: we need informed citizens to self-govern, yet the modern world is too complex for anyone to fully understand. His 1919 warning is even truer today: "The present crisis of Western democracy is a crisis in journalism." Five Key Takeaways * Democracy's Impossible Paradox: Lippmann identified that modern democracy demands citizens make informed decisions about a world too complex for anyone—even experts—to fully understand. We're stuck needing public opinion to govern while being unable to form truly informed opinions.* The Stereotype Machine: Lippmann literally invented the modern concept of "stereotype" as a way information gets simplified and transmitted between people. He'd likely see AI as the ultimate "stereotype machine"—endlessly reproducing the most probable combinations rather than generating new insights.* Manufactured Consent Crisis: His core warning was that when consent-manufacturing becomes "unregulated private enterprise" (think Hearst then, Musk now), democracy itself is threatened. The solution isn't eliminating commercial media but professionalizing journalism within it.* Expertise Must Serve Democracy: Despite being labeled an elitist, Lippmann actually argued that expertise should ultimately be subject to democratic control. He attacked anti-democratic "experts" like eugenicist Lewis Terman as frauds.* Journalism = Democracy: Lippmann's most prescient insight: "The present crisis of Western democracy is in an exact sense a crisis in journalism." Today's democratic struggles are inseparable from our information crisis—fake news, social media manipulation, and the collapse of trusted news sources.Tom Arnold-Forster is the Kinder Career Development Fellow in Atlantic History at the University of Oxford's Rothermere American Institute.

Send us a textHow have humanitarian organizations managed to deliver life-saving aid to millions of Gazans despite the dangerous and difficult conditions since Oct 7? Despite their success, why have the US and Israel set up an alternative mechanism for distributing aid under the auspices of the secretive Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF)? What principles guide the field of humanitarian relief, and how does the existing UN-backed mechanism compare with the practices of the GHF? Abby Maxman, President and CEO of Oxfam America, joined the show this week to answer some of these questions and call on the world to allow her colleagues to do what they do best: deliver life-saving food, water, and aid to the people of Gaza as the UN announces that the entire population of the enclave is now at risk of famine.

Tracy Richmond, Chair of the Board for The Jewish Federation of New Hampshire, talks to NHJournal's Michael Graham about life in the Granite State as a Jewish American as antisemitic violence claims two more lives on the streets of Washington, D.C. That violence was accompanied by the "Free, Free Palestine" chant heard at UNH and the state capitol in Concord.Then Graham launches into a rant about the World's Worst Political Cover Up -- the fact that Joe Biden was mentally unfit to be President of the United States pretty much the entire time he was President of the United States. And nobody did more to keep Biden there than the Democrats of New Hampshire.Sponsored by Perfect Smiles of Nashua.Please support NHJournal's independent journalism by "subscribing" for $4.99/month.

Ukraine and Russia have accused each other of violating the three-day truce declared by President Putin. India and Pakistan have targeted each other in drone attacks. Also: the spacecraft due to crash back to Earth.

Day 1,170.Today, as the end of the Second World War in Europe is marked in most European countries, we report how Vladimir Putin's three-day ‘goodwill ceasefire' designed to protect his own commemoration tomorrow appears to have been broken already, we examine three very strong and uncharacteristically critical comments by the United States administration about Russia, and we ask whether Friedrich Merz has hit the ground running, or fallen at the first hurdle.Contributors:Francis Dearnley (Executive Editor for Audio). @FrancisDearnley on X.Dominic Nicholls (Associate Editor of Defence). @DomNicholls on X.James Rothwell (Berlin Correspondent). @JamesERothwell on X.Hamish De Bretton-Gordon (Chemical Weapons Expert and Former Tank Commander). @HamishDBG on X.Content Referenced:'Putin's top 3 lies: from Ukraine to the Second World War' (Video by Francis):https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_mdvqJy-zVkPutin welcomes Xi Jinping at Kremlin (The Telegraph Live Blog):https://www.telegraph.co.uk/world-news/2025/05/08/russia-ukraine-zelensky-putin-xi-jinping-moscow/ JD Vance: Russia is asking for too much from Ukraine (The Telegraph):https://www.telegraph.co.uk/us/politics/2025/05/07/jd-vance-russia-asking-too-much-from-ukraine/ Former British Army soldier “Swampy” killed in Ukraine (The Telegraph):https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2025/05/07/former-british-soldier-killed-in-ukraine/ Putin's Victory Day display is a charade, not a parade (Hamish's article):https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2025/05/08/putins-victory-day-display-is-a-charade-not-a-parade/ Russia has damaged, destroyed over 2,300 medical infrastructure facilities since beginning of full-scale invasion, health ministry says (Kyiv Independent):https://kyivindependent.com/russia-has-damaged-destroyed-over-2-300-medical-infrastructure-facilities-since-beginning-of-full-scale-invasion-health-ministry-says/SIGN UP TO THE NEW ‘UKRAINE: THE LATEST' WEEKLY NEWSLETTER:https://secure.telegraph.co.uk/customer/secure/newsletter/ukraine/ Each week, Dom Nicholls and Francis Dearnley answer your questions, provide recommended reading, and give exclusive analysis and behind-the-scenes insights – plus maps of the frontlines and diagrams of weapons to complement our daily reporting.

Illegal border crossings hit record lows and gotaways plummet 99% under Trump's return—without a single new law passed. Meanwhile, Democrats roll out seven new impeachment articles accusing him of abuse and censorship, even as Biden's team faces backlash for real First Amendment violations. Critics call the effort stale political theater in the face of a shifting tide on immigration and leadership

In this powerful and wide-ranging conversation, Margaret Kimberley—senior columnist at Black Agenda Report and a leader in Black Alliance for Peace—joins Breht to dissect the spectacle of American decline and, as usual, Kimberley offers a razor-sharp analysis of late-stage capitalism's collapse into cruelty, chaos, and confusion. Together, they explore the Democratic Party's complicity in ushering in this moment, U.S. weapons transfers to Ukraine in support of their proxy war against Russia, and the genocidal assault on Gaza as a revealing - if disturbing - lens into the true nature of the American empire. Kimberley also shares firsthand insights from delegations to Nicaragua, Venezuela, and China, illuminating how the Global South is resisting U.S. domination and reshaping global power. For those feeling the weight of worsening economic conditions, rising fascism, and political demobilization, Kimberley offers hard-won wisdom about organizing in the belly of the beast. We close with discussion about where real hope can still be found.
