7. Cline addresses the vulnerability of the Minoan and Mycenaean civilizations, which served as models for "what not to do" during a crisis. Despite their outward appearance of strength, these societies were fragile systems that collapsed completely after the 12th century BC. Their writing system, Linear B, was limited to accounting, leaving no literary records of their downfall. The transition to the Iron Age saw the disappearance of their specific social structures, though names of gods like Zeus and Poseidon endured. This period illustrates how societies can appear vibrant while being internally decayed, leading to a total replacement of their political identities. (7)
6. Cline explores the decline of the Minoans on Crete and the Mycenaeanson mainland Greece. Both civilizations are categorized as failures that were internally fragile despite impressive architectural achievements like the Lion Gate. Overextension through massive construction projects and internal uprisings during periods of drought likely contributed to their demise. By the 11th century BC, these societies had vanished, though some cultural elements persisted through a permeable membrane into the Iron Age. Cline also discusses how Homer's epics, written centuries later, cautiously reflect this transition from the Bronze Age "Wanax" kings to the Iron Age "Basileus" leaders. (6)

On this episode of Excess Returns, Matt Zeigler and Bogumil Baranowski speak with Rainwater Equity ETF portfolio manager Joseph Shaposhnik about how long-term investors should think about markets in an era defined by geopolitical shocks, AI disruption, and unprecedented capital investment cycles. The conversation explores how disciplined investors can stay focused on durable businesses and long-term free cash flow rather than reacting to short-term headlines. Joseph explains how his team evaluates companies during major events, why the AI boom may create both massive disruption and opportunity, and where he believes the most attractive investment opportunities exist today.Topics covered in this episode• Why most macro headlines and geopolitical events rarely have lasting impacts on great businesses• How long-term investors should analyze conflicts and market shocks without overreacting• The defense spending supercycle and why aerospace and defense may benefit from rising geopolitical tensions• How Joseph evaluates the AI investment cycle across semiconductors, software, and hyperscalers• Why semiconductor companies may offer a lower-risk way to benefit from AI growth• The risks created by massive AI infrastructure CapEx and concentration around specific AI models• Why some software companies may face significant disruption from AI tools and LLMs• How AI could reshape business models that rely on packaging public or commoditized data• The potential rotation from the Magnificent Seven to the other 493 companies in the S&P 500• Why capital intensity may change the long-term attractiveness of some technology companies• The role of management quality and capital allocation in navigating technological disruption• Fragile vs anti-fragile business models in an AI-driven economy• Where AI may create unexpected winners across industrial and traditional industries• Why long-term investors should still prioritize durable cash flow compounding businessesTimestamps00:00 Introduction and why most headlines have limited long-term impact on businesses02:00 How experienced investors think about geopolitical shocks and market headlines04:00 Defense spending tailwinds and the aerospace and defense supercycle06:45 How investors should react when major market news breaks11:10 How Joseph evaluates the AI boom and which companies benefit most14:15 The case for opportunities outside the Magnificent Seven17:15 How rising AI CapEx is changing the economics of major tech companies21:25 Why hyperscalers face increasing concentration risk23:00 Why semiconductor suppliers may be the best positioned AI investments27:15 Why Joseph reduced exposure to software companies33:00 The importance of learning organizations and adaptive management teams37:00 AI, labor markets, and whether high-income jobs face disruption41:00 Fragile vs anti-fragile companies in the age of AI46:00 Where AI could create unexpected business winners52:00 How great management teams adapt during technological disruption57:00 How AI may accelerate entrepreneurship and innovation59:00 Why investors should remain focused on sustainable cash flow01:02:00 What the next generation of long-term compounders may look like
Pete Hegseth's résumé maps the trajectory of a man who failed upward from Fox News host to Donald Trump's Secretary of Defense. As Brett Kavanaugh's Supreme Court hearings proved, sexual assault allegations are rarely a roadblock to a powerful job in the Trump administration. In fact, Donald Trump has consistently rewarded Hegseth for years of documented bad behavior—from financial mismanagement of veterans organizations to the relentless promotion of toxic masculinity.Hegseth presents himself as the prototypical "man's man," seemingly more invested in a pull-up challenge with a shirtless Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. than with abiding by the rules of war or the gravity of the Pentagon.This week, Kill the Computer podcaster June Sternbach joins Katelyn and Christine to unpack Pete Hegseth's pathetic masculinity complex. We dissect how mainstream media sanitized his record, and how rewarding his fragile masculinity both reflects and reinforces the darkest corners of U.S. political culture.
Jon Davison from YES joins me on the Now Spinning Magazine Podcast to discuss performing the legendary album Fragile live, stepping into the role once held by Jon Anderson, and why YES continue to push progressive rock forward.Jon reflects on discovering YES as a teenager through “Owner of a Lonely Heart”, exploring the band's earlier music, and the surreal experience of singing songs like “Roundabout” on stage with the band he grew up admiring.We also talk about the future of YES, their upcoming studio album, and why progressive rock should always challenge both musicians and listeners.Topics include:Performing the album Fragile liveThe legacy of YES and Jon AndersonWriting and performing new YES materialSteve Howe's leadership in the bandWhy progressive rock should always evolve
Geoff Downes joins me on the Now Spinning Magazine Podcast to talk Asia, YES, Icon, and the emotional weight of legacy.Fresh back from Japan with Asia, Geoff reflects on revisiting the legendary Asia in Asia era — performing the original 1983 set — and how it feels playing those songs now, without John Wetton. We also dive into the upcoming YES UK tour, where the band will perform 1971's Fragile in its entirety, and Geoff shares how he approaches the album's iconic solos and epics — including the surprising reality of opening with “Roundabout.”Plus: Geoff discusses the Icon “Lexicon” retrospective, what he misses most about writing with John Wetton, and he confirms that the new Yes album is recorded, finished, and delivered.If you're heading to see Yes on the UK tour, drop your memories (and your favourite Downes moments) in the comments.Become a Patron for exclusive videos and join the Now Spinning Arms virtual pub twice a month.Become a Patron (free trial -cancel anytime)https://www.patreon.com/nowspinningNow Spinning Magazine Storehttps://burningshed.com/store/now-spinning-magazineVisit the Now Spinning Magazine Merch Shophttps://nowspinningmagazine.co.uk/
Your plans may look perfect on paper, yet preparation is what determines whether your goals survive the moment real life hits. In this short solo episode, Dr. Andrew Fix reflects on the gap between planning and preparation. Many people enjoy creating plans because they bring clarity and structure. Yet plans often fall apart when circumstances change. Preparation is what makes those intentions durable. It turns ideas into systems that hold up when life gets messy. Dr. Fix explains that planning creates direction, but preparation removes friction. A simple example shows the difference. You may intend to eat healthy during the week. If lunch arrives and nothing is ready, convenience usually wins. Preparation removes that last-minute decision and supports the outcome you wanted from the start. The conversation also highlights the value of action. People who begin doing often move ahead faster than those who spend endless time refining a plan. Experience grows through action, and momentum builds through small steps. Outcomes remain unpredictable, yet we always control the inputs. So where do your goals live right now? On a list or in real preparation? Dr. Fix challenges listeners to move beyond planning and invest in the habits, systems, and actions that make progress possible. Quotes “Plans are fragile and preparation is durable.” (02:11 | Dr. Andrew Fix) “Convenience is king a lot of times.” (03:05 | Dr. Andrew Fix) “Planning is more the idea creation. It's the logistical figuring out what the details could be.” (05:31 | Dr. Andrew Fix) “Preparation is the action of putting those plans into place, like actually taking steps to put those plans into action and start making moves based on the plans that you had laid out.” (05:38 | Dr. Andrew Fix) “We don't control the outcomes, we control the inputs and we can look at preparation as inputs that we are investing in what the outcomes going to be.” (07:49 | Dr. Andrew Fix) Links SideKick Tool Movemate: Award-Winning Active Standing Board 15% off Promo Code: DRA15 RAD Roller Revogreen HYDRAGUN Athletic Brewing 20% off: ANDREWF20 Connect with Physio Room: Visit the Physio Room Website Follow Physio Room on Instagram Follow Physio Room on Facebook Andrew's Personal Instagram Andrew's Personal Facebook Podcast production and show notes provided by HiveCast.fm

Gwynne HEADLINE: The Experimental R101: Innovation Meets Fragility and Dipsomania SUMMARY: Gwynne details the R101's experimental design, including heavy diesel engines and fragile gas bags made from cattle intestines.

This message explores the fragile nature of human life and contrasts it with the everlasting love and sovereignty of God. Drawing from thinkers like Viktor Frankl and Scripture such as Psalm 103, it argues that true meaning and stability are found not in achievements or experiences, but in anchoring our lives in God's eternal love.

For a while, it looked like Villa might just make a fight of it against Chelsea at Villa Park.The opening goal was exactly what the team needed. Quick tempo, Douglas Luiz breaking forward, Bailey finally receiving the ball in space, and a sharp finish by Luiz to cap a rare moment of attacking fluency.It was the type of move Villa have been missing.Then came the moment that changed the night.Watkins thought he had put Villa 2–1 ahead after a brilliant breakaway move involving Morgan Rogers. The celebrations were long enough to believe momentum had shifted. Then the VAR check arrived, the goal was ruled out, and the momentum would soon shift in Chelsea's favour.Chelsea scored before half-time and from that point the balance was gone.The second half exposed the structural issues Villa have been carrying for weeks. Chelsea repeatedly clipped passes in behind Villa's high line, with Enzo Fernández dictating play and wide players stretching the defence. Once the pressure mounted, Villa's resistance faded quickly.The final scoreline reflected the underlying numbers. Chelsea's expected goals approached four, a rare figure in a game Villa never truly regained control of.Yet the wider picture remains strangely open.Despite defeats and inconsistent performances, the Champions League race continues to wobble around them. Rivals are dropping points too.But Villa's buffer is effectively now gone.If Villa are to stay in the race, they need to turn their form around pronto.UTVCheck out the best current deals on Aston Villa MerchandiseGET AD-FREE SHOWS and JOIN MATCH CLUBGet ad-free shows and extra shows, and join My Old Man Said's 24/7 Villa community, Match Club.For more details and to become a member, click here: Become a MOMS MemberJoin the show's listener facebook group The Mad Few.Credits:David Michael - @myoldmansaid Chris Budd - @BUDD_musicMy Old Man Said - https://www.myoldmansaid.comThis Podcast has been created and uploaded by My Old Man Said.

"Your Customers Aren't as Loyal as You Think They Are - The Fragile Nature of Loyalty"A CMO Confidential Interview with Nicolas Chidiac, Chief Strategy Officer of Razorfish, formerly Chief Strategy Officer of Rokkan and EVP/Head of Planning at Leo Burnett. Nic discusses why brands often overestimate consumer loyalty, why repeat purchase trends can be misleading, and the dramatic increase in speed and velocity of competition. Key discussion topics include: why it has never been easier to try a new product; how influencers have "democratized celebrity endorsement;" why marketers should focus on "removing relative friction;" and how to measure your loyalty deficit. Tune in to hear stories about White Lotus, Chewy, Dubai Chocolate and Pop Tarts. Your customers aren't as loyal as you think. Razorfish Chief Strategy Officer Nic Chidiac joins Mike Linton to unpack groundbreaking research revealing the fragile nature of brand loyalty — and why most marketers are dangerously overconfident about it.65% of marketers believe repeat buyers stay out of emotional connection to their brand. Only 15-17% of consumers agree. That gap is costing companies billions. Nic breaks down the loyalty deficit, why switching has never been easier, and what confident marketers should actually be measuring.Whether you're defending a market-leading brand or building a challenger, this episode will change how you think about loyalty programs, customer retention, and the metrics you're relying on.

“A Savior for the Fragile and Faint” March 1, 2026 Matthew 12:14-21 Pastor Tony Felich Sermon Application [file] ----more---- Matthew 12:14 But the Pharisees went out and conspired against him, how to destroy him. [15] Jesus, aware of this, withdrew from there. And many followed him, and he healed them all [16] and ordered them not to make him known. [17] This was to fulfill what was spoken by the prophet Isaiah: [18] “Behold, my servant whom I have chosen, my beloved with whom my soul is well pleased. I will put my Spirit upon him, and he will proclaim justice to the Gentiles. [19] He will not quarrel or cry aloud, nor will anyone hear his voice in the streets; [20] a bruised reed he will not break, and a smoldering wick he will not quench, until he brings justice to victory; [21] and in his name the Gentiles will hope.” While religion crushes the fragile and faint, Jesus restores them with mercy. • The quiet strength of Jesus. (15-19) • The tender care of our Savior (20) • Christ's mission of hope and justice (20-21)
Jay Schellen has been with Yes for almost a decade though he didn't become the full-time drummer until the passing of Alan White after 50 years in the band in 2022. As Yes are taking their Fragile Tour to the UK this April (and we covered the tour on episode 263, beware of setlist spoilers), we sat down with Jay to learn more about his long career, journey to Yes and the band's future. Jay grew up in New Mexico and developed an early love of music and drumming. At a young age he moved to LA and immediately connected with Yes alum Tony Kaye who became a mentor, brother and friend to Jay. From there he worked with many bands and artists like Peter Banks (Yes), Billy Sherwood (Circa, Yes) and Geoff Downes (Buggles, Asia, Yes). Once he made his way into the orbit of Yes, it was a no brainer for him to fill in when Alan White was unavailable, to share the stage with Alan and eventually be hand-picked as his successor. We talk about Jay's amazing career, the fun of playing Fragile in its entirety, their upcoming tour of the UK & Europe this spring, new music coming from Yes this year and a return to Japan and the US.

You didn't quit. Life interrupted. If you've ever felt like you were doing well — and then suddenly found yourself “starting over,” this episode explains why. Spoiler: it's not about motivation. It's about design. Here's what we're unpacking: Why progress really stalls Research shows most habits don't fail because people give up — they fail because of disruption. Travel. Illness. Schedule changes. Stress. Caregiving. Real life. Most systems are built for ideal weeks — not unpredictable ones. The re-entry problem When routines break, most people don't need a new plan. They need a way back in. Diana shares a personal story about a season where everything was working — until life shifted. The lesson? “I didn't need a new plan. I needed a re-entry point.” The 4 invisible progress blockers All-or-nothing systems – Great when life is calm. Fragile when it's not. No re-entry point – Miss a week and it feels like starting over. Too many decisions – Restarting feels heavier than stopping. Shame-based self-talk – “I should be further along.” These aren't character flaws. They're design flaws. Why restarting feels harder than starting Research shows people resume habits faster when restarting feels: Small Familiar Neutral Shame delays progress. Accessibility restores it. “Consistency isn't about intensity. It's about accessibility.” This week's challenge Instead of asking: “Why can't I stick with this?” Ask: “How easy is it for me to come back when life interrupts?” Resource: 26 on 26 To support this idea, download 26 on 26 — a simple list of 26 small ways to come back in gently.

We'll hear how ICE agents' own family members describe them as low-IQ bullies chasing signing bonuses, why a former white nationalist explains that the alternative to unpacking discomfort is becoming overtly racist, how incel culture evolved from lonely forums into a MAGA recruitment tool, and what researchers found about why men socialized to equate violence with manhood end up joining state-sanctioned death squads.

Produced by Joseph Cottrell, Wayne Hall, Ken Fuller and Jeffrey Crecelius This week we were delighted to welcome Yes drummer Jay Schellen back on the YMP. Just like last time, we had a lovely conversation and Jay shared his thoughts about the forthcoming UK and European Fragile Tour as well as the new Yes album that is now being prepared for release in July (hopefully). It's clear from our interview that Jay is totally committed to the future development of the band and believes that the new album will be warmly received. We look forward to that, of course. What unexpected item does Jay take with him on tour? How does his kit differ from Alan White's Has Jay been more involved in the writing of the forthcoming album than his previous Yes records? Do let us know your thoughts in the comments below. Drama and Fragile Live - last time! YES - FRAGILE UK TOUR 2026 YES Receive Stunning Reviews from USA leg of their FRAGILE tour, which they bring to the UK in April and May 2026. “Yes, quite possibly the most important Prog Rock originators and granddaddies of the genre, delivered deep cuts and their groundbreaking classic album, “Fragile,” in its glorious, delightfully indulgent, layered, and ambitious grandiosity tonight.” Sonic Nation, 11/10/25 “Prog-rock stalwarts Yes took the stage...bringing new energy to their classic sound.” --Danielle Modica, NYS Music, 10/9/25 “Truly prog rock at its finest, if I do say so myself. They've still got the groove, the intensity, and the mythicality that established them as such a unique act over 50 years ago.” Rock DNA Magazine - 5 stars – 5/10/25 Progressive Rock legends, YES, recently returned from the USA where they performed 31 shows on their Fragile Tour across the country. They hit the road in the UK once more for a 9-date trek across the country starting on 22nd April at the Royal Concert Hall in Glasgow and ending with a two-night run at the prestigious Palladium in London on 3rd and 4th May. The tour will see YES performing their 1971 classic album, ‘Fragile', in its entirety, including such timeless songs as ‘Heart of the Sunrise', ‘South Side of the Sky' and the much loved ‘Roundabout' as well as a selection of songs from right across their illustrious catalogue from their legendary 70`s releases right up to their current album, ‘Mirror To the Sky.' ‘Fragile' was the fourth album by YES cracking the Top 10 in the UK in 1971 achieving Platinum status along the way and was the first to feature keyboardist Rick Wakeman. The single, ‘Roundabout' was a Top 20 hit in the States with the album breaking into the Top 5 on the Billboard chart receiving a Double Platinum certification in the process. Steve Howe: “After The Yes Album, everything seemed to align. With Eddie Offord co-producing, and each of us contributing solo pieces, Fragile became a bold statement of creativity. It was Bill Bruford's idea to include individual showcases—it was a bit oddball, but it captured the spirit of the time.” Each show will feature a gallery of work by esteemed artist, Roger Dean, whose paintings have graced the covers of many of YES albums over the years. ‘Fragile' was the first YES album to feature Dean`s iconic artwork. The current line-up of YES features Steve Howe, whose association with Yes began in 1970, along with Geoff Downes, a member of the 1980 ‘Drama' era line-up. Jon Davison has been lead vocalist in Yes since 2012 while bassist, Billy Sherwood, who was hand-picked by original bassist Chris Squire, has been involved with YES since 1990`s. Jay Schellen, who worked closely with Alan White on drums, completes the line-up. Steve Howe: “We're all looking forward to the UK dates and will be presenting an intriguing first set then all of ‘Fragile', in its entirety then a slight diversion before our usual final encore. See you all then” The ‘Fragile' UK Tour Dates 2026 Wed 22nd April Glasgow Royal Concert Hall glasgowlife.org.uk Fri 24th April Sheffield City Hall sheffieldcityhall.co.uk Sat 25th April Liverpool Philharmonic Hall liverpoolphil.co.uk Mon 27th April Birmingham Symphony Hall bmusic.co.uk Tue 28th April Bournemouth Pavilion bournemouthpavillion.co.uk Thur 30th April Bristol Beacon bristolbeacon.org Fri 1st May Manchester Bridgewater Hall bridgewater-hall.co.uk Sun 3rd May London Palladium lwtheatres.co.uk Mon 4th May London Palladium lwtheatres.co.uk Tickets (subject to booking fees) go on general sale on Friday 19th September at 10am from BookingsDirect.com About YES Steve Howe: guitars, backing vocals (1970 –1981, 1990–1992, 1995–present) Geoff Downes: keyboards (1980–1981, 2011–present) Jon Davison: lead vocals, acoustic guitar (2012–present) Billy Sherwood: guitar, backing vocals ((1994, 1997–2000), bass guitar, backing vocals (2015–present) Jay Schellen: drums and percussion (2016-present) Formed in 1968 by Jon Anderson and the late Chris Squire with guitarist Steve Howe joining in 1971 for ‘The Yes Album', YES have been one of the most innovative, influential and best-loved bands in rock music history.

If you've been feeling spiritually distracted, overwhelmed by daily life, or quietly drifting from eternal perspective, this episode is a gentle reset. We return to Colossians 3:2 — “Set your minds on things that are above, not on things that are on earth” — and explore what that actually means in real life. We talk about why the resurrection still matters, why Christianity is rooted in history, and why the central question has always been whether Jesus rose from the dead. Because if He did, everything changes. It's easy to move through our routines — work, kids, business, church — and slowly begin living as though what we see is all there is. But Scripture reminds us that our lives are a mist. Brief. Fragile. Eternal perspective changes how we handle grief, ambition, success, and even our health. We are here to love God and love others — we are not here to chase what is temporary. This episode is for the Christian woman who wants clarity and peace in a noisy world. It's a reminder to lift your eyes, steady your heart, and anchor your thinking in what lasts.

In Session 324, Dr. Paulie Gavoni and Steve Ward join me to discuss what resilience actually looks like from a behavior science perspective — and why many well-intentioned adult responses can unintentionally teach avoidance instead of persistence. We center our conversation around their book, S.H.I.T. Happens: Building Resilient Children in a Fragile World, which reframes resilience not as a personality trait or motivational slogan, but as a set of learnable repertoires shaped by the environments adults design We talk about: Why resilience is a behavioral repertoire, not a mindset or personality trait The hidden ways adult anxiety shapes children's learning environments How overprotection and pressure both undermine skill development Designing "successful struggle" so kids contact reinforcement for effort Everyday moments — homework, sports, emotional setbacks — as resilience practice The adult's role as guide, not rescuer or drill sergeant Teaching recovery instead of avoidance Scaling challenges to build confidence and persistence Why discomfort is information, not danger This discussion emphasizes practical decision-making: how small changes in adult behavior can create conditions where children learn to try again, persist longer, and experience the satisfaction of overcoming something difficult. Whether you're a practitioner, educator, or parent, this episode highlights how resilience is built through repeated opportunities to struggle safely — and why those opportunities matter more than we often realize.

Send us a textPeaches and Trent break down the growing fallout around Gen. “Fat Tony” Bauerfeind, his short tenures at AFSOC and the Air Force Academy, and why leadership failures don't happen in a vacuum. From berating cadets in locker rooms to misreading SOCOM priorities and alienating donors, staff, and subordinates, this episode walks through how ego, insulation, and ignoring the chain of command can wreck organizations fast. The conversation expands into general officer culture, why the Army and Marines produce different leaders than the Air Force and Navy, and how credibility is built—or destroyed—by shared hardship. Add in a side discussion on AI in cockpits, human-machine teaming, pilot override authority, and why trust still matters more than tech, and you get a classic Ones Ready mix of hard truths, humor, and uncomfortable accountability.⏱️ Timestamps: 00:00 Ones Ready intro and sponsor chatter 02:00 OTS Alabama registration reminder 04:30 Fat Tony, AFSOC, and short command tours 07:00 USAFA leadership complaints and cadet treatment 10:00 Berating subordinates vs fixing the chain 12:30 Why yelling at the bottom never works 15:00 Flying authority, CV-22 incident, and Q-3 fallout 18:30 Why cadets aren't the problem 21:00 SOCOM priorities vs DEI messaging 24:00 How leaders misread their environment 27:00 Fragile ego and insulation at senior ranks 30:00 Army and Marine leadership pipelines contrasted 34:00 PT credibility and leading from the front 37:00 National Guard DC shooting and Purple Heart criteria 41:00 Weapons carry, chambered rounds, and training gaps 48:00 Super Bowl flyover and airpower optics 54:00 AI in cockpits and auto-eject concerns 58:30 Human-machine teaming and pilot-trained AI 01:01:20 Closing thoughts and wrap-up
