What does this mean? Eurozone builders are having a rough ride. September saw new orders tumble in both France and Germany, dragging down residential and commercial construction to their lowest points in months.

Hello and welcome to our latest episode where today we are discussing three games in a row we have battled back to earn a point but is this a good sign or a worrying one? Why are we unable to attack and beat teams? It feels as though our focus is so much on defending where as under Ange it was all too attack... and yet, in competitive games Ange finished last season with the exact same record (goals scored and conceded) as Thomas Frank has started this one. Are we better? Are we worse? Are we the same but in a different way? I do not know the answer yet but that is our discussion for this week... amongst other things including a loan chat.

Award-winning journalist, author, and podcaster Jemele Hill joins Shan for a conversation about how she uncovered the connection between stress, rest, and desire in her own marriage. She shares why her husband seems to get luckier when they're away, how that awareness has deepened their relationship, and what it taught her about the balance between ambition, partnership, and intimacy. This episode is for my overachievers who struggle to “do it all,” for the happily partnered (or hoping-to-be), and for anyone who's ever wondered how to bring that vacation spark back home. Together, Jemele and Shan break down: - Why “having it all” is a myth (and the price women pay for chasing it) - How silence around stress robs intimacy, and what to do instead - What “fair trade” in the home has to do with mutually desirable sex - Practical ways to bring vacation sex energy into everyday life

In the newest episode of An Armao Beyond the Brink, Rosemary speaks with renowned media lawyer and professor Lucy Dalglish. Dalglish cannot recall a time in American history when threats to a free and independent press were so numerous or potent. She doesn't even like thinking about the future of media because it's impossible to ignore the possibility that  Freedom of Thought and Expression  enshrined in the First Amendment are being crushed by censorship and lack of public support.Lucy Dalglish, as a reporter, media lawyer, and educator has been a standout player in American journalism for decades.  She was executive director for a dozen years of the Reporters Committee for Freedom of the Press which provides free legal aid and other support to protect the news gathering rights of journalists. She left that position in 2012 to become dean of  the journalism school at the University of Maryland for 11 years. She still teaches media ethics and law there. Dalglish began her career in 1980 as a reporter and editor at the St. Paul Pioneer Press. Dalglish has been awarded the Kiplinger Award by the National Press Foundation in 2012 for her service to journalism. She was also awarded the Wells Memorial Key, the highest honor bestowed by the Society of Professional Journalists and is an inductee in the National Freedom of Information Act Hall of Fame in Washington, D.C. She holds a  juris doctor degree from Vanderbilt University Law School; a master of studies in law degree from Yale Law School and a bachelor of arts in journalism from the University of North Dakota.

Chris is a Catholic convert, husband, father, and craftsman who has made it his mission to counteract the ugliness of modern culture with beauty. This isn't just a conversation about art. It's about the Catholic man's responsibility to stand guard over beauty, to resist counterfeit creativity like AI-generated “art,” and to recover the discipline and craftsmanship that once built cathedrals. Chris shares how his battle with cancer reoriented his life and how beauty brought him back to God in a powerful way.We talk about conversion, liturgical living, discipline, and the dangers of compartmentalizing our Catholic faith. Chris doesn't hold back on calling out the cultural rot in entertainment, art, and media and he reminds us of the need for Catholic men to fight on the frontlines by living lives of integrity, order, and truth.Products/References Mentioned:Baritus Catholic IllustrationRome Sweet Home by Dr. Scott Hahn3 Powerful Quotes from the Episode:“Life is about struggling to learn a craft. Life is about investing time in something that's meaningful.”“We need to really be the ones protecting art. It's up to Catholics to be the gatekeepers and say, no—we're protecting this because it leads people back to God.”“If you're Catholic on Sunday but live like the world the rest of the week, you're losing the battle. Faith isn't part of your life—it must be your life.”Weekly Challenge for Men: Begin living liturgically. Anchor your family life in the Church calendar, feast days, and sacraments.

In 2016, Brian Wansink wrote a blog post that prompted scientific sleuths to investigate his work. They found evidence of data manipulation, and, after several news articles and two investigations by his institution, he would found to have committed misconduct, as defined by Cornell University. His work had been used to inform US policy around food, much of which has now been thrown into question.Cases like this are rare, but science is not immune to misconduct. The rise in 'paper mills' — organisations that produce questionable or fake papers that they sell authorships on — has led some to worry that misconduct is on the rise and that a proportion of the scientific literature cannot be trusted.In episode two of Self Correction, we explore how researchers are responding to the problem of research misconduct. We discuss how difficult it is to determine the prevalence of misconduct, and how sleuths, journalists and research integrity institutions are fighting back.This episode was written and produced by Nick Petrić Howe.

 Chuck warned listeners a few weeks ago that he had been hit by a computer virus, and that they should not open a spam e-mail that was being sent from one of his accounts.

This segment discusses a growing "war" on the social media platform X, where Americans are fighting against what they see as corporate misuse of the H-1B visa program. The hosts highlight the case of Microsoft, which allegedly laid off thousands of American engineers only to immediately post the same jobs for lower wages under the H-1B program. The hosts explain how a digital movement has emerged to expose these hidden job listings and "bombard" them with applications from Americans, which legally disrupts the visa process. The conversation also features clips of Steve Bannon and Governor Jim Pillen of Nebraska, who both advocate for stricter immigration enforcement and the deportation of illegal immigrants to protect American jobs and wages. The hosts criticize South Carolina's Governor Henry McMaster for not following other states in deputizing state law enforcement to assist with immigration enforcement.

Today's episode of Uncommon Sense with Ginny Robinson is a carefully crafted full-on rant about two awful cultural failures, Donald Trump and Taylor Swift. Both, in their own ways, are failing the next generation and pushing the normalization of pedophilia. Trump refuses to release the Epstein list or hold powerful pedophiles accountable. Meanwhile, Taylor Swift flaunts her naked body on her album cover marketed to an audience that includes young girls who are already being tempted by a society pushing them toward OnlyFans. Feminism has clearly failed. We need to bring back the biblical patriarchy, AKA Christianity.At some point, we have to stop asking why is all of this happening and start living biblically individually, in our families, and as a society. For the sake of our own wellbeing and (far more importantly) the protection of our children. If we can't even agree to safeguard their innocence, what are we doing? Why aren't we protecting the children?--https://bakerbookhouse.com/featured/the-brand-sunday

On the radio show this week, we cover the cuts to our health care pushed through by Donald Trump and Republicans in Congress, with many of the most harmful cuts delayed until after the midterms. We dive into Trump's cuts to public education -- and tips on fighting school funding cuts and privatization efforts. We discuss the militarization of policing and the use of false crime narratives for political repression, and how the care infrastructure counter these trends. We close the show covering National Breastfeeding Month, and why lactation support and paid family/medical leave can help families bond and heal and help our economy thrive.    SPECIAL GUESTS: Natasha Murphy, Center for American Progress, @amprogress, @americanprogress.bsky.social‬; Ameshia Cross, EdTrust, @EdTrust, @edtrust.bsky.social‬; Monifa Bandele & Tina Sherman, MomsRising,  MamásConPoder, @MomsRising, @MamasConPoder, @momsrising.org, @mamasconpoder.org

Hello to you listening in London, England!Coming to you from Whidbey Island, Washington this is Stories From Women Who Walk with 60 Seconds (and a bit more for courage) for Motivate Your Monday and your host, Diane Wyzga.It's true what they say: "A story grows in the gaps where the facts fall short." 47 and his cabal are exploiting the gaps to create cruel and obscene stories because they have no facts.Headlines that repeat 47's cruel and obscene stories like reign of terror, being on the eve of destruction, days of the dictator, subservience to the sociopath, and so on reinforce these stories. The more these stories are told without the counterbalance of truth, facts, good news, and how We the People are fighting back, the more these lies will take hold in our exhausted minds because these stories keep on gushing like torrents of water out of a broken fire hydrant.Hear me when I say this: I am no idiot. Treacherous times are alive and afoot. 47 and his criminally complicit cabinet, feckless GOP congress, and subservient SCOTUS on speed dial are after nothing short of the utter desecration of our country. So, We the People must continue to push back, show up, stand up, speak up, fight and ever fight!In the darkest days of World War II when all looked lost in the face of Nazi Germany's advance across Europe and the Dunkirk evacuation, Winston Churchill summoned the will of the British people against those odds.    His famous "We shall fight on the beaches" speech was a galvanizing address delivered to the House of Commons on June 4, 1940.Listen to a portion of history: “The British Empire and the French Republic, linked together in their cause and in their need, will defend to the death their native soil, aiding each other like good comrades to the utmost of their strength. Even though large tracts of Europe and many old and famous States have fallen or may fall into the grip of the Gestapo and all the odious apparatus of Nazi rule, we shall not flag or fail. We shall go on to the end, we shall fight in France, we shall fight on the seas and oceans, we shall fight with growing confidence and growing strength in the air, we shall defend our Island, whatever the cost may be, we shall fight on the beaches, we shall fight on the landing grounds, we shall fight in the fields and in the streets, we shall fight in the hills; we shall never surrender, and even if, which I do not for a moment believe, this Island or a large part of it were subjugated and starving, then our Empire beyond the seas, armed and guarded by the British Fleet, would carry on the struggle, until, in God's good time, the New World, with all its power and might, steps forth to the rescue and the liberation of the old.”Imagine the immense sacrifice and effort required of the British people to face the adversity and pummeling hardships of war. And yet, they did with courage and determination, with unwavering resolve to resist the Nazi threat, even to the last person, if necessary.If the British defeated the Nazis - against all odds - who are we not to follow in their footsteps and prevail against the enemy within our shores? We have no Churchill to summon us to battle; but we shall fight and we shall win because We the People are defying them and their obscenely hateful stories.Thank you for listening and making good trouble to liberate the land of the free and the home of the brave.  You're always welcome: "Come for the stories - Stay for the magic!"

This episode was recorded live at the 2025 Socialism Conference in Chicago, where we collaborated with conference organizers to host four discussions over the first weekend in July. All four recordings are now available for Death Panel patrons at www.patreon.com/deathpanelpod feat. Beatrice, Sophie Lewis, Melissa Gira Grant Session description: As the state intensifies its assault on gender, sexuality, and reproduction—criminalizing abortion, trans care, and pregnancy outcomes, dismantling government functions to fight "gender ideology," and defining "real women" under the guise of protection—how do we endure and resist? Under the shadow of a second Trump administration, the erosion of rights is not a glitch but a feature of a broader regime of privatization and control. Journalist Melissa Gira Grant, and authors Sophie Lewis and Beatrice Adler-Bolton discuss how today's attacks are part of a longer history of state repression, and how we can build resistance in an era of hyper-austerity and rising fascism. Editor's Note: About 8 minutes in, we had to temporarily switch to our local audio backup to restore a piece of the conversation that is absent in the livestreamed version.

Our August break is continuing with a replay of one of our favorite chats we've ever recorded. This one is really fun.  Over the next few weeks we'll be re-sharing conversations with some of our favorite guests as they share their stories of independence, integrity, information, inspiration and definitely impact. We're kicking the series off with a conversation with comedy legend Sam Bee. And if you're a Lindsey Graham fan, this one is not for you. Recorded live from the Manhattan Classic Car Club back in 2019, this episode is a candid, no-holds-barred conversation with one of America's most important voices in comedy and journalism. As you'd expect, Sam doesn't hold back, delivering a blistering critique of the administration, the politicians who enable it, and the moral compromises being made in Washington to placate Trump. Sound familiar? This episode is a look back at 2019 when we were just getting started. But once you give it a listen, you might be surprised by just how relevant it still is. -WATCH video of Paul and Sam's conversation.

“I think the community came together more when we started getting those notices about people being swept up by these supposedly ICE agents who are just covered up. So that was the thing that made us come out there and start defending everyone who doesn't want to come out to defend themselves.”In this episode of the Speaking Out of Place podcast, Professor David Palumbo-Liu speaks with Daniela Navin and Jeanette de La Riva, two members of Grupo Auto Defensa a community organization based in Pasadena CA, which has come about in response to attacks by ICE, which have violently disrupted everyday life and led people to form new relations of mutual support and care. We hear their stories of how Trump lieutenant Stephen Miller's demand that ICE arrest 3000 people every day has put unbelievable constraints on hard-working people's lives. Nevertheless, we also hear how they have invented tactics to challenge these repressive measures. We are joined by journalist-activist Maxmillian Alvarez of The Real News Network who grew up in Los Angeles and comments on the broad networks of resistance cropping up organically to fight fascism.Maximillian Alvarez is an award-winning journalist and the Editor-in-Chief and Co-Executive Director of The Real News Network (TRNN) in Baltimore. He is the founder and host of Working People, "a podcast about the lives, jobs, dreams, and struggles of the working class today," and the author of "The Work of Living," a collection of interviews with US workers recorded during Year One of the COVID-19 pandemic. Prior to joining TRNN, he was an Associate Editor at the Chronicle Review. His writing has been featured in outlets like The Nation, In These Times, Poynter, Boston Review, The Baffler, Current Affairs, and The Chronicle of Higher Education; as an analyst and commentator, he has appeared on programs like PBS NewsHour, Breaking Points, Democracy Now!, The New Republic, NPR's 1A, The Hill's Rising, and more.www.palumbo-liu.comhttps://speakingoutofplace.comBluesky @palumboliu.bsky.socialInstagram @speaking_out_of_place

What happens when a stay-at-home mom in Indiana gets so fired up about injustice that she starts a movement that changes America? Shannon Watts, founder of Mom's Demand Action and author of the instant New York Times bestseller "Fired Up," knows exactly what it feels like to go from folding laundry to fighting the most powerful lobby in the country. Her story isn't just about gun safety—it's about every woman who's ever been told she's not the right person to create change. How do you know when it's time to stop letting someone else handle it and start taking action yourself?Shannon's journey from corporate communications executive to one of America's most powerful activists didn't happen overnight, and it sure as hell wasn't easy. In this raw, honest conversation, she breaks down exactly what it means to live "on fire"—and why the blowback you'll face for stepping into your power is not only predictable but completely worth it. We're diving deep into the messy middle of creating change, the double bind of "fucksgiving" that women navigate, and how to sustain yourself when fighting for what matters feels impossible.What You'll Learn in This Episode:• The bias towards action vs. letting someone else do it - and how to recognize when it's your turn to step up • Why blowback is predictable and none of it is personal - plus practical strategies for handling criticism when you're creating change • The "fire formula" for identifying your abilities, values, and desires to live authentically • How to distinguish between "false fires" (purpose, happiness, busyness) and what actually fulfills you • Why taking no pay for 11 years was Shannon's biggest mistake - and the martyrdom trap that keeps women small • The double bind of "fucksgiving" - being expected to give all the fucks about everything while giving zero fucks about criticism • How to build sustainable activism that doesn't burn you out (hint: it's about winning and finding your people) • The bridge-building strategies for having political conversations across divides without compromising your valuesShannon's story proves that you don't need permission, credentials, or the "right" background to create massive change. But here's what hit me hardest: her revelation that women's biggest fear isn't failure—it's that pursuing what they want will make them bad mothers. What would change in your life if you stopped believing that taking up space meant taking something away from others? Ready to discover what's limiting you and what's calling you?

Cutting Through the Chaos with Wallace Garneau – It's not just ideological dominance. It's psychological control. Because if you can't use the right words, you can't form the right thoughts. And if you can't think clearly, you can't speak clearly. And if you can't speak clearly, you can't resist. The war on words is the war on thought, and therefore the war on freedom itself...

On Thursday's Mark Levin Show, Iran's nuclear ambitions and ballistic missile development pose an existential threat to Israel and American civilization, which cannot be ignored. Israel, possibly with U.S. assistance, will take military action to neutralize this threat, as Iran will not go away on its own. Iran's actions, including attacks via proxies and American casualties, demand a decisive military response, which is self-defense rather than nation-building. These radical Democrats, fifth-columnists, and isolationists lack any strategy and moral clarity. Also, the people of Israel are never discussed by the media. They face severe challenges every day, especially in Tel Aviv, where ballistic missiles from Iran target hospitals and public areas, forcing families into bomb shelters. They are in constant fear with a disrupted quality of life. Media outlets ignore these struggles and ignore the regime's history of killing and maiming American soldiers. Later, Zuhdi Jasser calls in and addresses the mindset of the isolationists and fifth columnists who deliberately ignore the existential threat posed by Iran's theocratic regime and its proxies like Hezbollah and the Houthis. He emphasizes that these groups are driven by a radical theology that glorifies suicide bombing, chaos, and the targeting of non-combatants, with the ultimate goal of triggering an apocalyptic scenario tied to the return of the 12th Imam. Jasser asserts that Iran's uranium enrichment is clearly aimed at developing nuclear weapons, not peaceful purposes, and warns that the regime would use such weapons, likening its leadership to a cult willing to commit national fratricide. Finally, Sayyid Qutb's book Milestones, promotes pure Islam and strict shariah, rejecting Western values and most modern Muslims as ignorant (jahiliyyah). Groups like CAIR, ISNA, ICNA, MSA, and MPAC dismiss devout Muslims who oppose their views. Qutb's ideas fuel sectarian violence and terrorism by groups like Hamas and al-Qaida, and states like Iran, which pursues nuclear weapons through deception (taqiyya). Western appeasement fails to counter this clash with democratic values. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
