When Opposition Leader Angus Taylor announced a Coalition government would develop and implement a national security strategy, many shouted, "Finally!", but delivering a strategy that is fit for purpose is more political than most would think.   Since the release of the nation's first whole-of-nation national security strategy in 2013, successive Australian governments have sought to mask the nation's lack of preparedness with individual but isolated strategies from across government.   Championed tirelessly but ultimately unsuccessfully by the late Jim Molan, a national security strategy has often been viewed as solely the remit of a narrow clique of public policy professionals with access to security briefings and the levers of power.   But as host Steve Kuper and geostrategic analyst Marc Ablong unpack, a truly encompassing, whole-of-nation national security strategy presents immense opportunities not just for the nation but also for the political party that recognises the challenges we face need to be overcome.   This conversation comes at a time when political upheaval, atomisation and social cohesion continue to challenge established and insurgent political movements at home and across the broader Western world.   The pair discuss the immense opportunity for the political party that understands and develops a strategy incorporating a distinct and inescapable but seemingly forgotten factor: national security begins with the individual.   They discuss just what makes a "good" national security strategy in the modern context, the lessons Australia can learn from the Scandinavian nations, the United States and other like-minded countries that have recognised the challenges and opportunities presented by the return of multipolar, great power competition.   Finally, they discuss a question, only just starting to re-emerge in the public and political consciousness: "What sort of country do we want Australia to be?"   Enjoy the podcast,  The Contested Ground team

Many studies focus on how Russia doesn't work and why. There's a laundry list of reasons. Corruption. Autocracy. Imperialism. Exceptionalism. But, how, then, does Russia work? Because there are people, a state, and society. What greases the wheels? Alena Ledeneva has made this question the focus of her career. For her, it's the informal networks and practices that allow the system, with all its deficiencies, to function. Her new book, Russian Pendulum, is a synthesis of her three books on informality. But instead of focusing on post-Soviet Russia, she examines the long duree of informality through the concept of paradox. For example, the Soviet paradox, “Shops are empty, but fridges are full.” Ledeneva says that this paradox contains a hidden informal relation that ameliorates shortage. She also takes a novel approach to this subject using sculpture and music to represent the paradoxes and practices of Russian everyday life. We at the Eurasian Knot wanted to know more. So we put the question to Ledeneva–How does Russia work? And what does that say about Russia's historical development over the last few centuries? Russian Pendulum has a soundtrack: “The System Made Me Do It,” available on Spotify and elsewhere. Guest:Alena Ledeneva is Professor of Politics and Society at the University College London and a founder of the Global Informality Project. She's the author of the trilogy: Russia's Economy of Favours (1998), How Russia Really Works (2006), Can Russia Modernize? (2013), Her new book is The Russian Pendulum: Paradoxes, Practices and Patterns published by UCL Press. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

It's helpful to be relentless in your practice of devotional service, and it's quite natural to be unsteady in the beginning. Part of being relentless means you have to be willing to continue, even if you feel that you're not making that much progress. That requires evaṁ buddheḥ paraṁ buddhvā. You have to be situated in your intelligence at that point, because you may not have as much taste as you might need—and you get a lot of credit for staying a long time. In fact, my godbrother Puṣkar Prabhu was just telling me the other day: Śrīla Prabhupāda once commented when devotees were asking these types of questions (and they were brand new), he said, "Wait 50–60 years in your practice." He commented and said, "See who's still around in 50–60 years." Many people shoot up, and they may have various motives, and then they're huge—and then all of a sudden they're not there. But who's there in 50–60 years? One thing is to make a determination to continue no matter what. That's very important, because a "big shot" is just a "little shot" who kept on shooting. That's the case in almost all areas of discipline: somebody who just stuck with it. It's like, "That guy? How'd he get in here?" It's like, "he kept doing it. You guys quit." So, we have to keep going. sva-pāda-mūlaṁ bhajataḥ priyasya tyaktānya-bhāvasya hariḥ pareśaḥ vikarma yac cotpatitaṁ kathañcid dhunoti sarvaṁ hṛdi sanniviṣṭaḥ (SB 11.5.42) Kṛṣṇa favors those who continue. This verse says that if you just keep going—even though you keep doing stupid stuff and you think, "Why am I doing that?"—it's because you're still "stupid," but you're smart enough to keep going. That is a sign of sincerity. The sign of sincerity is that you keep going. Have you ever seen a little animal or a kid who's totally inept at something, or maybe they're even deformed or injured or whatever but they just keep trying? Everyone runs to them and says, "Help them! Help that one over there, they can't walk." You see people all the time; they adopt a little beagle that has no back legs, and then they'll get a skateboard and hook it up because they want to help them out. So Kṛṣṇa is like that. If we keep going, even though we're the worst of the worst, if you just keep going, then there's magic that happens from chanting Hare Kṛṣṇa. We have to remember that Kṛṣṇa is all-powerful. nāma cintāmaṇiḥ kṛṣṇaś caitanya-rasa-vigrahaḥ pūrṇaḥ śuddho nitya-mukto 'bhinnatvān nāma-nāminoḥ There's no difference between Kṛṣṇa and His name. And He's transformative; He's cintāmaṇi. If you remember this, it's like: "I don't like the way my life is." All right, how about let's change it? What do you think? Yeah, good idea. How are you going to change it? Try YouTube? No—try chanting Hare Kṛṣṇa. If you just keep trying it, because Kṛṣṇa and His name are non-different, you go to the reservoir and you just drink, and you don't have to do anything else. That's why: vāsudeve bhagavati bhakti-yogaḥ prayojitaḥ janayaty āśu vairāgyaṁ jñānaṁ ca yad ahaitukam It happens quickly when you chant—do something direct. Chanting Hare Kṛṣṇa, it is transformative. So, keep going to that reservoir that changes everything. Who changes everything? It's Kṛṣṇa. He's the cintāmaṇi stone. Don't give up on it. ------------------------------------------------------------ To connect with His Grace Vaiśeṣika Dāsa, please visit https://www.fanthespark.com/next-steps/ask-vaisesika-dasa/?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=video&utm_campaign=launch2025 https://vaisesikadasayatra.blogspot.com/ ------------------------------------------------------ Add to your wisdom literature collection: https://iskconsv.com/book-store/?

Host Ricky Sacks is joined by Jason McGovern, George Achillea and Billie T as we go into a fresh week where Nottingham Forest beat Burnley to move five points clear of Tottenham. Aston Villa also beat Sunderland 4-3 so they can mathematically secure Champions League before playing Spurs, with Europa League semi-final ties days before + after game. We reflect on a wider length of where that Wolves result leaves us, if there is anyway we can survive and how Wolves away on Saturday can leave no room for error in a game that three points is an absolute must and needing favours from teams elsewhere to survive the drop.

Fears a decision around mining could affect New Zealand's reputation on the world stage. Trans-Tasman Resources' proposal to mine 50 million tonnes of seabed a year for 30 years in South Taranaki has been declined in a draft fast-track decision. The panel found there would be credible risks of harm to Maui dolphins, little penguins and fairy prion birds. Minerals Council Chief Executive Josie Vidal told Mike Hosking that it does New Zealand no favours. She says it comes at a time when we're trying to convince the US that we can be part of a global supply chain for minerals. LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This week's Roz & Mocha DM Deep Dive brings everything from Chloe opening up about the pressure of being the new girl, to Roz forgetting he ever hated the “vented moment” name, to the team debating whether bald people still need to wear hairnets. We get wild listener questions about the most ridiculous favours they've been asked, Mocha being accused of lying about his age, and whether walking on hot coals is better than stepping on Lego. Plus, the crew reveals which decade they'd relive, how they handle partners saying “leave me alone,” who they cheer for when family members' teams clash, and Chloe exposes her biggest relationship red flags.

In the small Estonian town of Orissaare, football players dribble around a 150-year-old oak tree standing impossibly in the middle of their soccer field or "stadium." What seems like a quirky local oddity became a symbol of national pride when this tree won the 2015 European Tree of the Year, beating much larger countries like Hungary, Spain, and the UK.How did an unknown Estonian oak outcompete all of Europe? The answer involves brilliant PR, ancient folklore, a fierce independence forged by centuries of foreign invasion, and a profound connection to forests rooted in animism. The oak also has an inspiring legend that captured the attention of tree-lovers around the world.GuestsAliide NaylorJournalist and AuthorLondon, UKThe Shadow in the East: Vladimir Putin and the New Baltic Frontaliidenaylor.comHeiki HansoArboristOrissaare, EstoniaAndla RüütelManager, Orissaare Sports HallOrissaare, EstoniaVoiceover Reading for Andla RüütelMartha Douglas-OsmundsonLinkedIn ProfileSongs (in order)"Saaremaa valss," Georg Ots"Ma vaatan paadist kiikriga," Boris Lehtlaan"Metsavendade laul (sõnadega) - Forest Brothers' Song," Untsakad"Isegi unes," Stig Rästa (permission from FAAR Music)Other References"The Favours of the Sacred Tree," Estonian Folk Tales: the Heavenly Wedding,Piret Paar and Anne Turnpu, authors, 2005.Silence of the Gods: The Untold History of Europe's Last Pagan Peoples, Francis Young, 2025.Theme Music"This Old Tree," Diccon Lee, www.deeleetree.comArtworkDahn Hiuni, www.dahnhiuni.com/homeWebsitethisoldtree.showTranscripts available.Follow onFacebook or Instagram This Old Tree podcast is a sponsored project of New England ISA.

We've seen some wild housing stories over the years, but this one takes the cake. In today's episode, we break down the quiet Kāinga Ora deal that handed almost 20 state houses to Tainui for $10 million… and then locked every non-iwi Kiwi out of buying them. No tender. No open market. No chance for anyone else. Duncan unpacks why this long-standing treaty clause is suddenly being used at scale, why it's stirring real anger, and what it means for home ownership, fairness, and the idea of one New Zealand. Then our panel - Ashley Church and Rawdon Christie - jump in to debate whether this is racial division or simply a treaty promise being honoured. We also get into Andrew Coster's fight for credibility, the year's political winners and losers, and the moments that truly shaped 2024.

An SOS call has been answered in Wellington's hospitality sector. Local brewers Garage Project have stepped in to save Fortune Favours' bar and brewery from permanent closure after a decade in operation. The brewery saw a 45% drop in revenue over the past two years, even after taking home top honours at this year's Beervana festival. Garage Project founder Pete Gillespie told Mike Hosking they did such an incredible job with that space, it would be a crime to see everything ripped out. He says they may have more optimism than they should, but he feels like it's worth doubling down on the bar. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

You're a bitch and that's why we lack community. A brutal essay has exposed how we've all become selfish in the name of self-care, and some of us are feeling a little bit attacked. Mia, Jessie and Em Vernem discuss the idea of the small favour economy and why asking your friend for a rise to the airport is more valuable than you realise. Plus, is anyone else feeling increasingly tricked by artificial intelligence? You're not alone. We tell you the sneaky ways even real estate agents are using AI for marketing tactics. And Em Vernem shares her own hilarious experience of being fooled by AI. Also, it's time to 'lock in' and 'crash out'. We explain the new vocab you're about to see everywhere.

You've probably heard the saying: “The rich get richer during a recession.”But here's the truth: It's not the crisis that makes people successful—it's their preparedness.In this episode of BusinessIsGood, I share one of the best lessons I've learned from Dan Sullivan of Strategic Coach:“Give half the credit to luck—and the other half to your ability to take advantage of it.”Luck will come. Opportunities will show up. The real question is—will you be ready?Using real examples from the COVID lockdowns, I talk about how some entrepreneurs didn't just survive—they came out stronger. They grew their businesses by:Focusing in on their core clientsTrimming unnecessary expenses and complexityAdding new services that created lasting revenue streamsFinding themselves with less competition and more market share after the dust settledI also talk about the opportunity sitting right in front of us today, during the current financial squeeze—and how those who are prepared (with cash reserves, low debt, and a clear plan) will be the ones who grow while others retreat.If luck is where preparation meets opportunity, then this episode is your invitation to get prepared—because opportunity is coming.The only question is: Will you come out stronger… or set back?Connect with Chris Cooper:Website - https://businessisgood.com/

Matt Ridley is a science writer, journalist, and author. Evolution is a strange theory. If survival is all that matters, why do we find things beautiful? Why does beauty exist at all? And if aesthetics are so important, how do some species thrive without it? Expect to learn what Darwin's strangest ideas were, the fundamental mystery of sexual selection, why females choose certain males based on beauty and performance rather than obvious survival traits, if females actually have as much agency in mate selection as we assume, or if other forces dictate choice, the alternative explanations for beauty and why aesthetics are so important and much more… Sponsors: See discounts for all the products I use and recommend: https://chriswillx.com/deals Get 10% discount on all Gymshark's products at https://gym.sh/modernwisdom (use code MODERNWISDOM10) Get the Whoop 4.0 for free and get your first month for free at https://join.whoop.com/modernwisdom Get a Free Sample Pack of all LMNT Flavours with your first purchase at https://drinklmnt.com/modernwisdom Extra Stuff: Get my free reading list of 100 books to read before you die: https://chriswillx.com/books Try my productivity energy drink Neutonic: https://neutonic.com/modernwisdom Episodes You Might Enjoy: #577 - David Goggins - This Is How To Master Your Life: https://tinyurl.com/43hv6y59 #712 - Dr Jordan Peterson - How To Destroy Your Negative Beliefs: https://tinyurl.com/2rtz7avf #700 - Dr Andrew Huberman - The Secret Tools To Hack Your Brain: https://tinyurl.com/3ccn5vkp - Get In Touch: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/chriswillx Twitter: https://www.twitter.com/chriswillx YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/modernwisdompodcast Email: https://chriswillx.com/contact - Learn more about your ad choices.
