    SHOW 12-17-25 THE SHOW BEGINS WITH DOUBTS ABOUT THE US CONFLICT WITH VENEZUELA... 1926 USS OMAHA IN THE PANAMA CANAL. Colonel Jeff McCausland discusses the US "blockade" of sanctioned Venezuelan oil tankers and the potential for escalation into a regional conflict involving Colombia. He also analyzes the Pentagon's refusal to release videos of destroyed drug boats, suggesting possible war crime concerns, and notes stalled Ukraine negotiations. Colonel McCausland reports on NATO's eastern flank "digging in," with Baltic states building defensive bunkers and Germany significantly increasing military spending. He highlights a divergence where European allies prepare for existential Russian threats while US leadership may prioritize "strategic stability" and economic cooperation with Moscow. General Blaine Holt warns that integrating Artificial Intelligence into military command increases the risks of deliberate, inadvertent, and accidental escalation. He argues that while AI accelerates decision-making, it lacks human judgment, potentially leading to catastrophic miscalculations if adversaries rely on algorithms during crises. General Holt explains that AI models in war games demonstrate a bias toward violent escalation, often prioritizing "winning" over negotiation, which leads to nuclear conflict. He emphasizes the necessity of keeping humans in the loop and maintaining direct communications between rival nations to prevent automated catastrophe. Simon Constable reports from France on high copper prices and slowing European energy demand. He describes protests by French farmers burning hay to oppose government orders to cull cattle exposed to disease and notes a significant rise in electric vehicle sales across the European Union. Simon Constable discusses the political troubles of UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer and the suspension of a US-UK tech deal due to clashes over AI regulation. He explains that Britain's "Online Safety Act" aims to tax and regulate tech giants, which threatens to stifle American AI companies operating there. Bob Zimmerman highlights a record-breaking year with over 300 global rocket launches, driven largely by private enterprise competition. He notes that Amazon was forced to contract SpaceX for satellite launches due to delays from rivals like Blue Origin and reports on safety concerns involving Russian launch pad negligence. Bob Zimmerman reports on the success of commercial space station company Vast and orbital tug tests that outperformed government efforts. Conversely, he details problems with NASA's Maven orbiter at Mars, which has lost communication, potentially jeopardizing data relays for surface rovers. David Shedd critiques the bipartisan failure of allowing China into the World Trade Organization in 2001, which was based on the false assumption that economic engagement would lead to democratization. Instead, this decision facilitated a massive transfer of intellectual property, fueling China's rise as a predatory economic rival. David Shedd explains how China's Ministry of State Security operates as a massive intelligence entity combining the functions of the CIA, FBI, and NSA. He traces this economic espionage to Deng Xiaoping's 1984 strategy, noting that Chinese officers view theft as repayment for past Western oppression. David Shedd details espionage cases, including an Apple engineer stealing "Project Titan" car schematics for a Chinese competitor. He also describes a Google employee who stole AI data while secretly working for a Chinese firm, highlighting how corporate greed and weak internal security enable intellectual property theft. David Shedd outlines strategies to counter Chinese espionage, advocating for "partial decoupling" to protect critical technologies like semiconductors and AI. He argues for modernizing legal deterrence to prosecute theft effectively and warns that Chinese platforms like DeepSeek harvest user data to advance their "Great Heist" of American wealth. Nury Turkel discusses the plight of Guan Hang, a whistleblower facing deportation from the US despite documenting Uyghur concentration camps. Turkel criticizes the inconsistent enforcement of forced labor laws and highlights new evidence linking Uyghur slave labor to the excavation and processing of critical minerals. Rebecca Grant argues against the planned retirement of the USS Nimitz in 2026, suggesting it should be kept in reserve given delays in new Ford-class carriers. Despite the ship's age, Grant asserts that retaining the carrier offers crucial strategic depth against threats like China's PLA Navy. Rick Fisher analyzes the emerging race to build AI data centers in low Earth orbit, noting advantages like natural cooling and zero real estate costs. While Elon Musk's Starlink positions the US well, Fisher warns that China has detailed plans to use space-based data centers to support expansion into the solar system. Alan Tonelson evaluates China's economic strengths, acknowledging their dominance in rare earth processing and solar panels, often achieved through subsidies. He argues that China's heavy investment in industrial robots attempts to offset a looming demographic crash, while questioning the true market demand for their subsidized electric vehicles.

Scrutiny intensifies over the still-unsolved shooting at Brown University, as investigators face criticism for missteps, missing evidence, and unanswered questions about motive. A separate killing of an MIT professor raises speculation about possible foreign intelligence interests, while Rep.

The episode turns to broader concerns about the rule of law, including revelations that wealthy Chinese nationals are exploiting birthright citizenship through surrogacy arrangements in the US. Bryan examines growing voter frustration over congressional inaction, the Senate filibuster, and whether the system can still respond to what many see as national security threats.

    The words High and Late Middle Ages conjures up images of fog rising up over a field where knights in shining armor are trading blows with double handed swords, mighty bishops overseeing the construction of monumental cathedrals and peasants toiling on the land as serfs. The reason we see it that way goes back to the chivalric literature that celebrated the aristocratic lifestyle where tournaments and poetry mattered more than the humdrum world of business.But let's just take a look back at the High Middle Ages, the time of Richard the Lionheart, Saint Louis and Frederick Barbarossa. Who controlled access to the great endeavor of the time, the conquest of the Holy Land? Who re-opened up the connections to the wider world, from Novgorod to India and China? Who were the most ferocious fighters who neither expected norgranted any quarter? Who had all the money?These were the great cities of Italy, of Flanders, of Picardie and Provence and of the Holy Roman Empire. Verona under the Della Scala in the 14th century generated tax revenues twice as high as those of England, Venice capacity was sixty percent of what France could generate. And these cities fielded armies that, as we know, defeated the Holy Roman Emperors, even the most capable ones like Barbarossa and Frederick II time and time again. Their absolute dedication to fight to the end was evidenced by their extremely heavy and slow war carts, the Carroccios and by the bravery of the Flemish Militia at the Battle of the Golden Spurs. And the first European since Roman times to make to India and China wasn't a Knight errant, but a Venetian merchant, nor were the vast lands on the Eastern side of the continent linked up by military force. The crusades, the grand project of the age was as much a venetian mercantile adventure as a religious pilgrimage, culminating in the sack of Constantinople in 1204. What happened? Where did all these city states go? And why?That is what we are going to discuss today, when we look at the showdown between Maximilian of Habsburg, widower of the last duchess of Burgundy and father of Philip, the universally recognised heir of the Low Countries and the Flemish cities, and specifically its largest, the city of Ghent.The music for the show is Flute Sonata in E-flat major, H.545 by Carl Phillip Emmanuel Bach (or some claim it as BWV 1031 Johann Sebastian Bach) performed and arranged by Michel Rondeau under Common Creative Licence 3.0.As always:Homepage with maps, photos, transcripts and blog: www.historyofthegermans.comIf you wish to support the show go to: Support • History of the Germans PodcastFacebook: @HOTGPod Threads: @history_of_the_germans_podcastBluesky: @hotgpod.bsky.socialInstagram: history_of_the_germansTwitter: @germanshistoryTo make it easier for you to share the podcast, I have created separate playlists for some of the seasons that are set up as individual podcasts....

    Christmas is Carnival: Carols and Calendars

    Historically, the celebration of Christmas and Carnival could overlap, and there is some reason to believe that customs associated with the former were inherited by the latter. A clue to this calendrical shift is offered by the Christmas song, “Carol of the Bells,” which uses the melody of an old Ukrainian New Year;s carol, one which dates back to the era in which New Year was celebrated in March (hence the springtime imagery of its original Ukrainian lyrics). Ukrainian postcard commemorating the folk song”Shchedryk” source of “Carol of the Bells” After a brief look at the variable date chosen to celebrate the New Year throughout European history, we take some time to rethink our modern understanding of what constitutes the Christmas season.  The common notion that the season ends on December 25 or January 1, possibly including the weeks leading up to those dates, in historical understanding, was reversed, with Dec. 25 representing the start of Christmastide, which at the very least ran until Epiphany (Jan. 6) or Candlemas (Feb. 2). The merger of Christmas and Carnival is not only aided by the historically later end date of Christmastide, but also the variable start date for Carnival. A number of regional dates preferred for those festivities are discussed with Germany’s initiation of festivities on November 11 being the earliest. Another reason to suspect that Carnival inherited some of its customs from Carnival is the carnivalesque quality of the Christmas Feast of Fools celebrated anywhere from Dec. 26 to January 6.  The wild, and sometimes dangerous revels celebrated on those days (and discussed in Episode 100) were ended by local bishops at roughly the same time that Carnival celebrations in France and Germany emerged, suggesting  re-channeling of anarchic impulses and customs. Our discussion then turns to the Roman New Year, the January Kalends, which likely inspired chaotic elements around the Feast of Fools. Of particular interest here are accounts of celebrants dressing in animal hides and horns. a custom that seems to have survived in certain Carnival traditions, including a number discussed in my Carnival book.  One of these, the Kurent of Slovenia, who happens to be rather similar to the Austrian Krampus across the country’s northern border. In Western Bulgaria too, another Carnival figure, the Kuker, in western regions also makes  use of animal hides and horns (as well as bells).  Bulgaria also provides us with an interesting 20th-century case study of the merger of the traditions of Christmas (or “Surva,” the Bulgarian New Year) merging with springtime fertility customs of Carnival, both strands being associated with the Kuker. We wrap up with a brief look at Slavic celebrations of the Christmas cycle as Koliade (various spellings), a name for Christmastide and the customs associated with it, particularly door-to-door “good luck visits” incorporating short plays and songs, kolyadka in Ukrainian, the original of “Carol of the Bells” (Shchedryk/”Bountiful Evening”) being one of these songs “New Year’s Carols” (Kolędnicy noworoczni) from “A Polish Year in Life, Tradition and Song” (1900). The sources for this show are Mr. Ridenour’s books The Krampus and the Old, Dark Christmas and A Season of Madness, Fools, Monsters, and Marvels of the Old-World Carnival.

    Versailles, domaine, histoire, ville et territoire : Le livre référence !Ce nouveau projet sur Versailles a pour ambition de reprendre le flambeau de la monographie de Pierre Verlet, Le Château de Versailles, publiée chez Fayard en 1961 et objet d'une nouvelle édition en 1985. Ce modèle d'érudition s'est imposé comme une référence sur la demeure d'Ancien Régime, analysée dans ses moindres détails. Le texte de Verlet permet ainsi de retracer les étapes de la construction de Versailles et de son aménagement, mais donne également d'utiles précisions sur l'usage des lieux et leur évolution jusqu'à la Révolution. Dense, il est illustré de plans permettant au lecteur de se repérer au sein du château. Mais depuis 1985, date d'un colloque fondateur entièrement consacré à Versailles, les travaux sur le sujet se sont à ce point multipliés qu'il ne serait pas incongru de parler de " versaillologie " pour désigner cette science du lieu et de son histoire, à la croisée des chemins entre histoire politique, histoire de l'art – architecture, peinture, sculpture, gravure, art des jardins, musique, arts de la table –, histoire littéraire, histoire des sciences, histoire des institutions, histoire sociale et histoire des mentalités. Alexandre Maral, qui a consacré sa vie professionnelle à Versailles, dont il est désormais le meilleur spécialiste, a décidé de publier une nouvelle monographie sur le modèle de celle de Pierre Verlet. Il s'agit d'offrir au lecteur curieux l'essentiel de ce que l'on peut savoir sur l'histoire du lieu. Pour autant, le propos de ce nouvel ouvrage a été doublement étendu : dans le temps, en prenant véritablement en compte la période antérieure à Louis XIV (longtemps négligée, cette période est pourtant fondamentale pour comprendre l'intérêt du site de Versailles, qui s'inscrit dans une histoire longue) et en traitant celle postérieure à 1789 (jusqu'à 2023) ; dans l'espace, en incluant le domaine, la ville, le territoire. Outre que la connaissance du sujet s'est enrichie de nombreuses études depuis 1985, l'approche méritait d'être renouvelée et d'intégrer des réflexions sur Versailles comme outil de gouvernement et condensé de civilisation. La somme définitive, qui conjugue érudition et plaisir de lecture dans une édition soignée, reliée et richement illustrée.Alexandre Maral est notre invité en partenariat avec le Salon du Livre d'Histoire de Versailles, pour les Interviews HistoireHébergé par Audiomeans.

La contestation s'est poursuivie aujourd'hui, notamment dans le Sud-Ouest, au huitième jour de mobilisation des agriculteurs. Plusieurs axes routiers et ferroviaires font l'objet de blocage à l'appel des syndicats Coordination rurale et Confédération paysanne. Hier, quelque 75 actions ont été recensées par le ministère de l'Intérieur.Pour tenter de désamorcer la colère des agriculteurs, le gouvernement promet une accélération de la vaccination dans le Sud-Ouest contre la dermatose nodulaire contagieuse, avec 750 000 bovins supplémentaires ciblés et le recours à des vétérinaires militaires. Concernant l'accord avec le Mercosur, le président de la République Emmanuel Macron a déclaré aujourd'hui que "la France s'opposerait de manière très ferme" à un éventuel "passage en force" de l'Union européenne.Xavier Bertrand, président LR de la région Hauts-de-France, et du mouvement Nous France est notre invité.

    The band Air is a duo from Versailles, France. Their first EP came out in 1995, followed by their critically acclaimed debut album, ‘Moon Safari,' which was an international hit. Then they made the music for the film ‘The Virgin Suicides,‘ which was written and directed by Oscar-winner Sofia Coppola, based on the novel by Jeffrey Eugenides. The movie came out in 1999, and it was Sofia Coppola's first film. An album version of Air's score came out in 2000, and it was nominated for a Brit award. Pitchfork put it at number four on their list of the best film scores of all time. In addition to the instrumental music that appears in the movie, Air also wrote a song for the end credits called “Playground Love.” That song featured Sofia Coppola's future husband, Thomas Mars, from the French band Phoenix, on vocals. Phoenix was still a very new band, and he and Sofia hadn't even met yet. Thomas appears on the song under the name Gordon Tracks. So for this episode, I spoke to all of them: Nicolas and JB from Air; Sofia Coppola; Thomas Mars; as well as Brian Reitzell, the music supervisor of the film.For more info, visit songexploder.net/air.

But salmon was one fish the Japanese did not eat raw.

    Welcome to The Times of Israel's Daily Briefing, your 20-minute audio update on what's happening in Israel, the Middle East and the Jewish world. Military correspondent Emanuel Fabian joins host Amanda Borschel-Dan for today's episode. Senior officials from the US, France and Saudi Arabia are set to meet in Paris today amid fears that Israel could embark on a new military operation against Hezbollah in Lebanon after a December 31 deadline to disarm the Iran-backed terror group passes, a diplomatic official told The Times of Israel on Tuesday. We have seen an uptick in tensions over the past few weeks. Fabian takes us back to early October to give context for what is currently happening on the ground. In one of his first moves, new Military Advocate General Maj. Gen. Itai Ofir decided today to close a criminal case against a senior reserves officer who was facing charges over his involvement in the circumstances that led to the deaths of a soldier and a civilian researcher in southern Lebanon in November 2024. Fabian was in the area when this occurred and fills us in. Israeli settlers torched a vehicle and sprayed graffiti in a West Bank village near Ramallah overnight, according to Palestinian media. The suspected crime took place in Ein Yabrud. The conflict in the West Bank, always at a low boil, but are appearances deceiving in that it seems to be on a higher flame in the past several weeks? After Palestinian media reported a series of Israeli airstrikes in eastern Gaza City, the IDF said it is conducting routine activity to demolish Hamas infrastructure in the Israeli-controlled area. In addition to the tunnel demolitions, there are almost daily incidents in which Gazans attempt to cross the Yellow Line from the Hamas-ruled side. Fabian gives several scenarios for the attempted crossings. Earlier in the month, Fabian visited Hamas’s “most complex” tunnel network in the Gaza Strip, where, eventually, the remains of Lt. Hadar Goldin were recovered. He was killed and abducted by the terror group in 2014, and it transpires that he was held some two kilometers from the Israeli border.

    ‘I do not see France as a country that must be closed. But I believe we must control immigration.'Nick Robinson speaks to National Rally leader Jordan Bardella about his vision for France. The 30-year-old is currently leading the polls to become the country's next President in 2027.He's on a media tour to woo businesses, and to persuade the world his party is now mainstream, despite its history with far right politics. It used to be the National Front - founded by Jean-Marie Le Pen, a convicted racist and Holocaust denier. Le Pen's daughter Marine re-branded the party and led it for many years, but is currently barred from public office after a conviction for embezzling EU funds, a verdict she plans to appeal. In her absence, her protégé Jordan Bardella finds himself in charge. He maintains the party has changed since its formative years. In this interview you'll hear why Mr Bardella rejects challenges on racism. He also says if he becomes president he'll call for a referendum on immigration "to take back control of our borders."

From violent public exorcisms to quiet nocturnal terrors, these cases reveal how fear, faith, and control shaped the lives of cloistered women across Europe.

Psychologue, danseuse, mannequin, créatrice, elle a longtemps porté plusieurs vies sans jamais renoncer à sa quête de sens. Jusqu'au jour où son corps a parlé plus fort que tout : une infection, l'hôpital, la colère et ce déclic intérieur qui vient bouleverser une existence. Comment écoute-t-on enfin ce corps que l'on a trop longtemps fait taire ? Que se passe-t-il lorsque les rêves d'enfance, la sensorialité, le souffle et la foi reviennent frapper à la porte ? Et si la colère, l'errance et l'étrangeté pouvaient devenir des guides vers une autre manière d'habiter sa vie ?

Hélène: [0:19] Bonjour, bienvenue dans ce nouvel épisode. Judith: [0:23] Alors aujourd'hui Hélène, je voulais parler avec toi d'un sujet du quotidien qui n'est pas comme ça très sexy dans l'idée, mais je suis sûre qu'on aura plein de choses à dire et plein d'anecdotes culturelles à partager. Je voudrais parler du ménage. Hélène: [0:38] Wow, effectivement, on a vu plus glamour, mais je pense qu'on peut bien s'amuser. Judith: [0:44] Et avant de commencer, on va écouter le message d'Andressa. Hélène: [0:48] Allez ! Message d'Andressa Andressa: [0:49] Salut les filles, moi c'est Andressa, j'ai 24 ans et je suis brésilienne. J'ai commencé à écouter votre podcast récemment et je comprends tout ce que vous dites, ce qui me surprend trop dans le bon sens. J'apprends plein de trucs grâce à vous. Je trouve la langue française vraiment trop belle. Ça me donne encore plus envie d'apprendre. J'aimerais faire un master en France un jour et j'ai une petite question. Vous pensez que ça va être compliqué pour les gens de prononcer Andressa ? C'est un prénom très brésilien. Vous avez une idée de surnom plus facile à dire ? Qu'est-ce que vous en pensez ? Judith: [1:34] Merci Andressa pour ton message. On est très contentes que tu puisses apprendre du français avec le podcast Easy French. Et pour ta question, Andressa, c'est très facile à prononcer pour les Français. Mais c'est vrai que ce n'est pas un prénom courant et on entendrait plus par exemple Andréa. Donc il est possible qu'on t'appelle Andréa même si Andressa est parfaitement prononçable en français. Hélène: [1:58] Et très joli, très original. En tout cas en France, c'est original.

    Janus avait deux visages ; Franco, lui, en affichait bien une centaine. "Paquito" pour les intimes, "Miss Canarias" pour ses compagnons d'armes en 1936, "Generalísimo", "Caudillo" ou "Son Excellence" au faîte de son pouvoir. Jusqu'à "El Abuelo" - le grand-père - dans les années 1960. Autant de surnoms, autant de figures, pour un seul homme. Mais qui était vraiment Franco derrière ces différents masques ? Stéphane Michonneau retrace l'implacable construction d'une légende, savamment orchestrée par le dictateur lui-même, puis remodelée par les générations successives. Du héros autoproclamé au fantôme embarrassant, chaque époque a réinventé "son" Franco, en fonction de ses peurs, de ses oublis ou de ses besoins. Entre culte officiel, mémoire républicaine, silences familiaux et falsifications assumées, Franco a survécu à sa propre mort, infiltrant les esprits et les paysages. Reste l'énigme d'un homme, et, plus encore, celle d'un pays tout entier. Inquiète, divisée, l'Espagne d'aujourd'hui continue de porter l'empreinte du Caudillo. Ce livre en explore les traces. Il invite à regarder Franco non plus comme une ombre du passé, mais comme une présence persistante qui continue d'agiter les débats et de fracturer le présent.Stéphane Michonneau est notre invité en partenariat avec le Salon du Livre d'Histoire de Versailles, pour les Interviews HistoireHébergé par Audiomeans.

Marguerite est une beguine — une femme pieuse, indépendante, qui écrit en langue française. Et ce qu'elle écrit est exceptionnel. Son livre, Le Miroir des âmes simples, propose une voie spirituelle audacieuse, fondée sur l'amour divin et le dépouillement total de l'âme. Un texte mystique, poétique, parfois déroutant, et surtout, d'une liberté incroyable pour l'époque.À ses côtés, une figure étonnante : Guiard de Cressonessart, un laïc inspiré qui osa défendre publiquement son œuvre et paya cher cet acte de courage. À partir des travaux historiques de Sean L. Field et de recherches récentes d'Elodie Pinel, cette émission raconte comment une femme a défié l'Université de Paris, le pouvoir royal et les tribunaux d'Inquisition.

    Ep.123: Owned, Extorted, and Gaslit

    EU Scream

    Since returning to the White House on Jan. 20, Donald Trump has imposed one-sided tariffs on the European Union, forced the bloc to commit to buying vast quantities of American natural gas, and effectively threatened annexation of Greenland. The latest indignity for Europe includes a White House National Security Strategy that calls on far-right parties to muster patriotic resistance to European policies. Instead of standing up to this blatant foreign interference, EU leaders have repeatedly tried to appease Trump and avoid any possible escalations of tension — even at the cost of their dignity. Examples include European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen weakening EU environmental and digital regulations in line with American demands, and NATO Secretary General Marc Rutte addressing Trump as "daddy" in front of the world's media. Trump may be the proximate cause of this annus horribilis for the EU. But the reasons for subservience run far deeper, says Dave Keating, a broadcaster and the author of a new book, The Owned Continent. A key factor is US command and control over the NATO military alliance, which Europe has relied on for protection from Russia for nearly eight decades. Trump and Maga are now openly exploiting that military dependency, amid Russia's assault on Ukraine, to block European regulation of tech oligarchs and fossil fuels. "Never before has there been an explicit connection from the US government between the military protectorate and EU policy," says Dave, who says the extortion is "a first" for the Trump administration. Another factor behind the European reluctance to treat the US in a more adversarial fashion, even as Maga amps up its belligerence, is the pervasiveness of American culture through cinema, news media, social media and streaming platforms. "Europeans are inundated by American culture from birth" says Dave. That also makes it "hard to accept that the US is a threat." Freeing Europe from its long vassalage is a strategic priority that starts with creation sovereign EU defense capabilities, says Dave. But that would require acknowledging that France was right to resist reliance on US military systems and hardware. It also would require Europe to make a decisive break with Atlanticism, an ideology that prioritizes NATO and that remains deeply entrenched among EU elites and in Poland and the Baltics. But Atlanticism may be an increasingly hard sell. It relies on increasingly implausible assumptions: that the US will keep large numbers of troops in Europe and uphold its mutual defense commitment under the NATO treaty despite abundant evidence otherwise. "At what point do citizens say, 'enough is enough, we've had it with these centrist European leaders lying to us, gaslighting us'?" Dave asks. "If Europeans keep electing these people, then they are signing their own death warrant as a sovereign continent." SOMO report on the Corporate Sustainability Due Diligence Directive.The Authoritarian Stack project on the threat posed by tech billionaires. Support the show
