Unpacking Trump's Tariff Policy: Making Sense of Economic NonsenseMatt Robison and conservative economist Jessica Reidl draw parallels between Donald Trump's administration and the fictional Lumon Industries from the TV show 'Severance'. They delve into the seemingly chaotic and inscrutable nature of Trump's economic policies, particularly his tariff strategy. Jessica provides expert insights into the economic ramifications of these tariffs, debunks the justifications given for them, and examines whether they are part of a broader, more dysfunctional pattern in Trump's administration. The discussion highlights the economic contradictions and long-term risks posed by Trump's policies and questions the overall stability and future of the U.S. economy.00:00 Introduction: Comparing Trump to Severance03:59 Analyzing Trump's Tariff Policies08:10 The Contradictions in Tariff Justifications15:13 The Manufacturing Argument23:20 The China Tariff Situation30:17 The Bond Market's Reaction36:40 Long-term Economic Consequences45:11 Concluding Thoughts and Future Work

Robin, Martin and Alex discuss The Line - Saudi Arabia's $1 trillion (or more!) megacity of the future in the desert.

With tariffs looming in the auto sector, Jim Stanford, an Economist and the Director of the Centre for Future Work joined Mike Stubbs to discuss the potential impact in Canada and the United States.

With the erratic threats of Trump's tariffs, many Canadians are switching to "Made in Canada" products. But in today's market, what does "Made in Canada" mean? How much of anything we buy is made right here in our country? Despite the highly integrated economy that Canada and the U.S. share, can we become more self-reliant by shifting all production to our home and native land? Jim Stanford, economist and Director of the Centre for Future Work; Vass Bednar, executive director of the Master of Public Policy Program at McMaster University and host of the "Lately" podcast; and Jim Hinton, owner and founder of Own Innovation and a Senior Fellow at CIGI, the Centre for International Governance Innovation, join Steve Paikin to discuss what it takes to make more in Canada.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

House AI task force members on Tuesday touted the long-awaited release of their report outlining recommendations to Congress on the federal government's adoption of AI, while confirming that lawmakers are in conversation with the incoming administration about the very same topics. The nearly 300-page report digs into a plethora of areas that the emerging technology touches, including the government's own use of AI, along with recommendations concerning AI governance and the AI workforce. Rep. Jay Obernolte, R-Calif., co-chairman of the task force, said during a press conference Tuesday that legislators and the incoming Trump administration are discussing what could be done to the executive order that the Biden White House released last fall, what items need legislative action and how efforts might be “harmonized” between the legislative and executive branches.

Welcome to episode #957 of Six Pixels of Separation - The ThinkersOne Podcast. Brigid Schulte is an award-winning journalist and bestselling author who has spent her career delving into the intricacies of modern life, particularly the challenges of balancing work, love, and play. With nearly 17 years at The Washington Post, where she was part of a team that won The Pulitzer Prize, Brigid has written for a myriad of publications including The Atlantic, The Guardian, Time, and Slate. Her work often focuses on the unsustainable pace of our always-on culture and the societal narratives that shape our perceptions of success and fulfillment. In this conversation, Brigid discusses her latest book, Over Work - Transforming The Daily Grind In The Quest For A Better Life (her first book was, Overwhelmed - Work, Love, And Play When No One Has Time). She explores how, despite advancements meant to make life easier, many of us feel more pressed for time than ever. The pandemic, she notes, has been a catalyst in reshaping our understanding of work and its true value. It has highlighted stark disparities between knowledge workers who can work remotely and low-wage workers who often face systemic barriers to advancement. Brigid challenges the long-held belief that longer hours equate to better work, emphasizing that this narrative is flawed and detrimental. Workers today are increasingly seeking meaningful and dignified work, and leadership plays a crucial role in shaping a culture that supports this. We delve into how technology, while disruptive, also has the potential to create new job opportunities - but only if we rethink how we value different types of work. If you're interested in understanding the complexities of modern work culture and exploring actionable ways to create a more balanced and fulfilling life, Brigid's insights are both enlightening and timely.

We can trust Him because He is sovereign and has a plan for the ages that He is working out and bringing to completion. What is our response to this? How then shall we live? We need to walk in His truth, trusting Him daily with our lives. We need to look to His Word to grow in our relationship with Him. We need to pass this torch of faith on to the next generation. In this short series, we dig into God's Word and see some specific areas where we can trust Him, grow in faith, and walk in truth.

145: Johannes Oberhofer ist Vater zweier Kinder und Ehemann, Energiebündel und leidenschaftlicher Freizeitsportler. Er ist ein Experte im Bereich Future Work und Corporate Health, der sich auf die Integration von Mensch und Technologie in Unternehmen konzentriert. Seine berufliche Reise begann 2006 mit einem Studium in Fitnessökonomie an der Deutschen Hochschule für Prävention und Gesundheitsmanagement. 2010 gründete er die VITAGO Gesundheitsberatung, wo er als Gründer und Mitinhaber bis 2022 tätig war. Zusammen mit seinem Team, und ab 2013 mit seinem Geschäftspartner, entwickelte Johannes ganzheitliche Konzepte aus Bewegung, Ernährung, Erholung und Mindset, um Menschen zu helfen, mit mehr Energie besser zu leben. Parallel dazu unterstützte er Unternehmen bei der betrieblichen Gesundheitsförderung und Entwicklung nachhaltiger Gesundheitsstrategien. 2023 begründete er digital.fwd mit – eine spezialisierte Beratung, die sich auf die digitale Transformation und deren Auswirkungen auf Mitarbeitende und Unternehmen konzentriert. Johannes' Arbeit verbindet modernes Arbeiten, nachhaltiges Energiemanagement und das Zusammenspiel von Mensch und Technologie. Er bietet Strategien und Trainings an, um die physische und psychische Gesundheit der Mitarbeitenden zu fördern und die digitale Fitness zu verbessern. Sein Konzept »Aufladen statt ausbrennen« zielt darauf ab, Mitarbeitende zu unterstützen, um die Produktivität sowie Kreativität und Energie im Team durch die richtige Nutzung von Technologie zu steigern. In seiner Arbeit fokussiert sich Johannes auf drei zentrale Elemente: Menschliche Power: Er betont die Bedeutung der menschlichen Energie als Grundlage für Leistungsfähigkeit und Innovation. Sein »Human.Recharge.Management.«-Ansatz fördert die physische und mentale Gesundheit der Mitarbeitenden, unterstützt eine zukunftsfähige Arbeitskultur und steigert so die Energie und das Wohlbefinden der Mitarbeitenden. Digitale Fitness: Johannes legt großen Wert auf die effektive Nutzung von Technologie im Arbeitsumfeld. Digitale Fitness umfasst die Fähigkeit der Mitarbeitenden, Technologie effizient zu nutzen, um ihre Arbeit produktiver und stressfreier zu gestalten. Dies beinhaltet Schulungen zur Nutzung von Kollaborationstools - in Zusammenarbeit mit Experten wie Teams MVP Alexander Eggers - sowie die Implementierung zukunftsfähiger Arbeitsmodelle, die ein gesundes Gleichgewicht zwischen Arbeit und Privatleben ermöglichen. KI-Readiness: Johannes beschäftigt sich intensiv mit der Integration von künstlicher Intelligenz (KI) in den Arbeitsalltag, um die Effizienz und Produktivität Mitarbeitender zu erhöhen. KI-Readiness bezieht sich auf die Vorbereitung und Schulung der Mitarbeitenden, KI-Technologien effektiv zu nutzen, um Routineaufgaben zu automatisieren und kreative Prozesse zu unterstützen. Oberhofer sieht KI als Werkzeug, das die menschliche Leistung ergänzt, ohne die Bedeutung der menschlichen Interaktion und Kreativität zu vernachlässigen. Durch diese drei Elemente strebt er an, eine nachhaltige und zukunftsfähige Arbeitskultur zu schaffen, die sowohl die individuellen Bedürfnisse der Mitarbeitenden als auch die Anforderungen der modernen Arbeitswelt berücksichtigt.

Michael Kudish is a Catskills legend and the authority on Catskills trees and forests. In 1971, Kudish earned his PhD with the thesis, "Vegetational History of the Catskill High Peaks." Five decades later, that research is ongoing. In 2000, Purple Mountain Press published his landmark book, The Catskill Forest: A History. Now, an updated 6-volume set is in the works. I met up with Michael at his home/research library in Delaware County, to hear about his latest research sampling Catskills bogs and radio carbon dating peat and charcoal for even more insights into our Catskills forest past.  --- Thanks to this week's sponsors: Briars & Brambles Books, Hanford Mills Museum, and The Mountain Eagle.
