Podcasts about global challenges

In this episode of the All Things Sustainable podcast we're talking to a leading voice in sustainable finance: Patrick Odier.   Patrick has a long history in Swiss finance and holds several leadership roles on Switzerland's sustainability stage — including as Chair of Building Bridges, the Geneva-based organization that convenes the financial community, public sector and international organizations to mobilize capital for sustainable outcomes. As Patrick describes it in the interview: "We realized that we needed to have all parties around the table."     The 7th annual Building Bridges Summit takes place Oct. 6-8, and Patrick gives us a sneak peek into what to expect when we take the podcast to Geneva to cover the event. The summit's title is "Investable Solutions to Global Challenges," and discussions will explore some of the biggest challenges that policymakers and investors face in 2026, from AI, energy security and infrastructure to nature, adaptation and resilience.   Patrick says the summit will focus on finding concrete solutions and driving system-level change. "In other words, move from the concept to the investment itself by those who are the best equipped, positioned and educated to do that," he tells us.   S&P Global Sustainable1 is a sponsor of the Building Bridges Summit 2026, where All Things Sustainable host Lindsey Hall will act as Master of Ceremonies.

In recent years, there has been no shortage of crises for Europe to face. From the Covid-19 pandemic, Russia's full scale invasion of Ukraine, the climate crisis, the migration crisis, it now must add an increasingly unreliable and unpredictable leader in the White House and the consequences of the conflict in Iran.   On this episode of The UK in a Changing Europe podcast, Director Anand Menon is joined by Mark Leonard, co-founder and Director of the European Council on Foreign Relations. The pair discuss the end of the transatlantic alliance as we know it and how Europe can strenghten its resilience outside of NATO structures, whether European responses to different crises have met the moment, as well as the problems that the structural changes that China is driving will present for Europe looking forward.

Today you are listening to the conversation with Priscilla Zamora Politis. Priscilla is a global leadership mentor, speaker, and social entrepreneur working at the intersection of conscious leadership work and life transitions and community. With over 15 years of international experience, she has supported leaders, organizations and networks across Latin America, Europe, and the Middle East to navigate change with clarity, humanity, and inner alignment.

Her work is deeply inspired by the community living in the inner development goals.

My name is Erno Hannink and I share my knowledge, experience, and insights with you. I coach entrepreneurs so they can make decisions that will help them grow their impact. This was a very inspirational conversation and I was very curious to learn about what you was doing today. Let's get started. Hello and welcome to this new podcast episode. Today I'm talking to Priscilla Zamora. Welcome, Priscilla. [00:01:41] Priscilla Zamora: Thank you so much for having me. [00:01:43] Erno Hannink: Yeah, and I'm wondering, 'cause we met on a conversation where we talked about, well the common topic was about, the transition of the. Systems of inner development goals that the foundation and all the, everything around that. And you explained to me in a later conversation that you are now living in Dubai. How did you get to Dubai? Because you're not coming from Dubai. [00:02:11] Priscilla Zamora: no. Yeah, I mean, today I'm living between three continents. I do have, I'm originally from Chile, so I have a lot of projects in my family. My networks are most of them in Latin America still. And on 2025 I find out about this community called Emerge Lakefront, which is very related to the inner development goals. And I stayed there for five months. but I've been related to the IDGs for almost three years when I co-founded with two other friends, the first half in Teale regarding to that, and I've been in Dubai a couple of times before, but it wasn't until January of this year that I came for like a personal development conference. And I was supposed to be here for a week, which ended up being three months. And it actually ended up, getting a. Residency and, coming to live here and having a base related to, I think that environments that support entrepreneurship in a fast paced environment. I don't think that there's a place in the world today like Dubai and also regarding too many biases that people may have. There is a lot of personal development, inner work and transformational changes, structural changes happening here to a lot of the conversations. So I love to have that mix. A little bit of Europe, the Middle East and Latin America. [00:03:33] Erno Hannink: And, you were going there for a self development project. It's probably not a project, but what ignited that? What started that [00:03:43] Priscilla Zamora: there? Well, I think that in the personal development slash spiritual path, however, one wants to call it, 'cause for me, are very related. You find different authors, networks, platforms. Experiences and for me, one that helped me a lot in the last, I would say five, seven years has been Mindvalley, which is a platform for personal development, but also has different approaches on business, physical health and mindfulness. And they had this conference called Future Human in January on 2025. And that was the reason on, I don't know, I think six months before on 2024 when I just read it, I was like, I have to be there. I don't know how I'm gonna get to Dubai and be there in January. But it was like I, I always have this expression of when something pulls you, like you read something and it's like, oh, I have to be there. That happened to me with Future Human and Little, I know that was going to be like a series of react, a chain reaction on many things that will happen in my life. It was the same how I read about lakefront on LinkedIn. It was the same, like I had to be there. I'm trying to lead my life now that way, like following a little bit of calling intuition, something that is not always intellectual. we can go a little bit more on that, but, that's how I gotta Dubai and that's how, why I'm here. [00:05:10] Erno Hannink: Okay, so the title piques my interest, right? So Future Human. What did you learn there? [00:05:20] Priscilla Zamora: It's been, I think that as many people maybe I developed my life very related to academic achievement, societal expectation.

Lured Up Podcast 378 Live Streamed on - 1/12/2026 Publish Date - 1/15/2026 This week didn't finish too strong with some Trainers in the Community. While Pinch Perfect and its rotating Timed Research was a blast, Kyurem Fusion Raid Day left a bad taste in some Trainers' mouths. The inclusion of Reshiram and Zekrom in the Raid rotation hurt Trainers with less developed gameboards, as some reports saying that all the Raids in some rotations were not White or Black Kyurem, making the event fall flat until the opportunity arises to try it again during the next rotation. Adam brought up a great idea of putting Fusion Energy in Field Research for defeating Reshiram or Zekrom. This week brings High Zaptitude and a double release. Wattrel and Shiny Tadbulb make their debut during the event, giving two different Pokémon to chase that are available in different ways. You'll have to work to unlock Wattrel, as it is a Level 2 Reward of a Global Challenge, which confused some Trainers that didn't read the fine print. In all, this is a solid double header and a fun Electric event. Precious Pals and Precious Pals Taken Over will keep us busy in the week ahead, with Giovanni bringing Shadow Incarnate Forme Thundurus. We also have boosted Shinies for catching Goldeen, and hatching Espurr or Fidough. Make sure you remember to TM away Frustration before the event ends! Weekly Challenges added matchmaking and a bigger invite list this week. With the leveling grind being so popular, Weekly Challenges are a great way to fast track to Forever Friends. The Challenges themselves however, pose little to no actual challenge for moderate to hardcore Trainers. We spitball some ideas of how this mechanic can be developed to provide a tougher challenge while targeting Trainers of different skill and dedication levels. Finally we drop our top 5 gameplay loop lists and talk it through. From the Friendship Grind to Adam's Max Battle obsession, we dig into what keeps us engaged with the game and coming back for more.

With the Well Armed's Global Challenges powering extra Candy XL for GMAX Snorlax, Trainers had good reason to get out there and grind over the last week. The Holiday events kicked off this week and brought a GO Pass along with it, but the rewards may not be the strongest this time around. Will a Snom Beanie be enough to sell the GO Pass? We don't think so but Trainers may be in it more for the process at this point. Part 2 of the Holiday Event picks up on Christmas Eve and brings back some past costume Pokémon as well as the debut of the Rolycoly line. The Winter Weekend mini-event opens the GO Pass progression up and adds a Timed Research as well. While Niantic hasn't shared the January Content Update yet, they are giving us plenty of event blogs to get us excited. Of course we will have a New Year's event which will bring back some popular costume Pokémon and some fancy avatar boots to boot. Grookey has been announced as the first Community Day Pokémon of the new year, while Piplup will show up during Community Day Classic. If that wasn't enough of a January preview for you, Kyurem Fusion Raid Day is also on the docket, which will will surely be a strong IRL and remote event. We wrap things up with a discussion about the state of the game, and how even with some performance issues like crashes and dropped frames, the game overall is in a really good state. Trainers have tons of options of how to spend their game time, with multiple mechanics taking Trainers down different types of experiences. One thing we have noticed, is that with increased item and Pokémon storage available, inventory maintenance has become a long and monotonous task that takes up a lot of our valuable screen time.

Lured Up Podcast 375 Live Streamed on - 12/9/2025 Publish Date - 12/12/2025 Temperatures are dropping for Ken and Adam in the Northeast, but that isn't stopping the game from keeping things hot! In the last week we journeyed to Paldea, recapped the year's Community Day lineup, as we continue to grind through the GO Pass and the leveling update. The announcement of Forever Friends has rekindled old friendships and has remotivated Trainers to get back on the gifting grind.  This week also brings us the Well Armed event with the release of Clobbopus along with boosted Shiny rates for DMAX Hitmonlee and Hitmonchan. Well Armed's Global Challenges will be the perfect complement for GMAX Snorlax this weekend, as rewards include increased Candy XL from Max Battles. Niantic has been doing a great job with events supporting each other, and allowing for some great stacking of bonuses. Forever Friends brings Remote Trading, which is a feature that Trainers never thought they would see. With a slick interface and a fair trading process, this will keep Best Friends engaged and interacting. Having a Prestige based leveling system will make Forever Friends earn their namesake, and worth keeping on your list. The Friends List will also be increasing from 450 to 650, rolled out in waves of 50. While there hasn't been any announcement about increased gifting ability, the additional friends are still a huge win. December still has a lot of fight left in it with the Winter Holiday events and Celestial Research Day coming soon. We also can't forget about the City Safari events happening this weekend as well. It's pretty wild to think how aggressive the pacing of the game is and how it keeps packing out the calendar. We also have confirmation on GO Fest locations, with the confirmation of Chicago and the announcement of Tokyo and Copenhagen.  We wrap things up with a conversation about remote play, and how Niantic has done a great job in rolling out remote features, without it having a big impact on IRL play. Smaller communities will still feel a sting if they lose 10-20% of their attendees, but the remote accessibility can at least make up for the gameplay elements, allowing the smaller groups to take down the tougher bosses. We wonder if there is anything left to add to the remote lineup, or if we have seen everything there is to be done already released!

Europe's Lack of Self-Confidence Facing Global Challenges: Colleague Judy Dempsey criticizes Europe's lack of self-confidence and ambition when facing Trump's transactional administration and Chinese aggression, arguing European leaders complain about US criticism rather than leveraging their own economic power, noting they are "sleepwalking" regarding the auto industry and dependencies on China. 11594

The world is entering a new era of conflict: more violent, more fragmented, and with more civilians caught in the crossfire than at any time since World War II. But the consequences of war may extend far beyond the battlefield. Rana Dajani, Jordanian molecular biologist and long-time member of the Tällberg network, is part of a research team uncovering how traumatic violence might alter gene expression and affect not only survivors but also their children and grandchildren. In this episode, she explains the emerging science behind intergenerational trauma and explores what these findings could mean for societies living through—and after—conflict.

World leaders at the G20 Summit in South Africa have reached consensus on disaster resilience, debt sustainability, just energy transitions and critical minerals as they adopted the G20 South Africa Summit's Leaders' Declaration.

Building and expanding refineries is a challenging task involving many moving parts. But even the best projects can unravel if politics shift, the economy sours, or another “black swan” event hits.

Roughly 1.2 billion young people will reach working age in developing countries over the next 10-15 years. However, current projections show that only 420 million jobs are expected to be created by that time, meaning millions of young people will be left without a clear path to employment. World Bank President Ajay Banga joins Clarke Murphy and Marla Oates on Redefiners to talk about what the Bank is doing about it, and why job creation is so critical to both developing countries and the global economy. Ajay talks about what he's doing to transform the 80-year old institution into a faster, more efficient, and more impactful partner in development, including partnering more with the private sector to increase investments in emerging markets. He also discusses what he calls the Decency Quotient and how leaders can tap into that in order to lead people with a hand on their back, not in their face. We'll also hear from Rebecca Hart, a leadership advisor in our Atlanta office, who will discuss why the most successful leaders prioritize curiosity over having all the answers. Four things you'll learn from this episode: How to get everyone aligned with a bold mandate, mission and vision and how to deal with challenging feedback Why job creation is a critical piece in global development Why the private sector is critical to international development What the Decency Quotient is and why it matters for leaders today If you enjoyed this episode, you might also like these Redefiners episodes: Music with a Mission: Former MTV International Chairman and CEO Bill Roedy on Leading with Purpose Leadership Lounge: Built to Last or Built to Learn: How Leaders Can Develop Resilience Action Creates Hope: A Conversation with IRC President and CEO David Miliband Leadership Lounge: From Firefighting to Future-Building: How Leaders Can Master Perpetual Transformation Thriving Through Adversity: How WTO's Dr. Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala is Solving Global Problems Leadership Lounge: Beyond Handshakes: How to Build Trust and Transform Executive Team Performance

Matt Dalio, founder and CEO of Endless Studios, joins host Mike Palmer to explore the profound connection between games, technology, and workforce development. Matt, who grew up with an early global perspective—including a transformative year in China at age 11—brings his philanthropic drive to the world of scalable tech solutions . We dive into how Matt's company, Endless, initially focused on providing computers in emerging markets, realized that skills are what truly pay the bills. A simple math game, Tux Math, engaged students in a way traditional instruction could not, with classrooms full of kids shouting multiplication tables . The even bigger revelation? Many top tech entrepreneurs, including Elon Musk and Mark Zuckerberg, started by hacking their games . Matt asserts that the goal is to transform kids from consumers to creators. We discuss how game creation, using tools like Unity and GitHub, develops five core, high-value disciplines: coding, design, digital art, management (product/project), and marketing/business analysis . These skills translate directly into a modern, AI-augmented workforce, where the ability to architect and validate production software is crucial. Key Takeaways: From Consumption to Creation: We need to move young people from passively using smartphones (consumption devices) to actively creating with devices that have a keyboard and mouse (creation devices), fostering a "lean forward" mindset . The Power of Hacking and Games: Learning starts when it becomes more fun to hack your games than to play them, leading to the development of deep, technical understanding. Five Core Disciplines: Game design is a launchpad for learning highly employable, durable skills in coding, design, digital art, management, and go-to-market business analysis . A New Model for Learning: The future of education involves immersing students in real projects on collaborative platforms like GitHub, replicating the workforce environment to teach mindsets like autonomy, agency, and teamwork . AI and the Future Developer: AI is a powerful tool, but it demands new skills: prompt engineering, chaining agent tools, and knowing how to architect, read, and debug production-level code to avoid technical "slop" and security issues. Why You Should Listen: The gap between traditional education and the demands of the AI-driven workforce is wider than ever. You'll hear Matt's global perspective on the rising number of high school students choosing not to pursue costly college degrees and the hunger for education in emerging markets. We discuss how the allure of video games—where the average kid spends 10,000 hours by graduation—can be channeled into productive, skills-building creation time . Matt shares an example of a Peruvian student who used his new skills to build a video game for rural communities to preserve their local language, illustrating the real-world, positive impact of this new educational approach . Listen to understand the model that could prepare the next generation to be "superhumans empowered by AI" .

Panama City, Panama - 29th October to 1st November - Team Ireland has achieved an outstanding result at the 2025 FIRST Global Challenge, placing 8th in the world, the highest ever finish for Ireland. The event, held this year in Panama City, brought together the brightest young minds in robotics, engineering, and innovation to tackle real-world problems through technology and teamwork. The FIRST Global Challenge is an international robotics competition that aims to inspire science and technology leadership and innovation among youth worldwide. Each year, FIRST Global invites every country to send a team to design and build a robot to compete. Teams collaborate to complete challenges in a game designed around solving some of the world's biggest issues. This year's theme focuses on biodiversity loss and the ways we can work to prevent it. The competition aims to inspire global cooperation and understanding among young people as they use their skills and creativity to tackle real-world problems. FIRST Global Challenge Robotics Competition 2025 Representing Ireland, the team demonstrated exceptional creativity, technical skill, and collaboration throughout the competition. The 8th place finish, Ireland's highest ever ranking, was accompanied by 2 further awards, The Video storytelling award, and The Social Media award. This high finish allowed them to advance onto the play-off stage of the competition, where only teams of the highest quality compete. For each match, teams were grouped into alliances of 3 V 3 with alliances changing for every match. It was a test of technology and problem solving, communication across language barriers, and the ability to form new strategies each time. Although all countries started with the same kit, each resulting robot was unique - every country's robot had its own strengths and weaknesses and this required students to collaborate continuously and adapt their strategy as they were allied with country after country - in order to optimise their success in every match. "We're incredibly proud of Team Ireland's success on the world stage," said mentor Pawel Zielinski. "This achievement reflects the team's dedication, creativity, and collaboration over the past few months. It showcases the remarkable talent of young people in Ireland and offers great optimism for the future and what they can achieve." The competition not only highlighted Ireland's growing talent in robotics and engineering but also emphasized the importance of international collaboration and STEM education for solving future challenges. More info about FIRST Global and the World Robotics Competition: FIRST Global is a US charity founded by inventor and innovator Dean Kamen and it strives to convince the various national governments and organizations of the world to embrace STEM education, invest in FIRST programs, and support their young adults. The aim is to nurture cross-cultural communication and cooperation among high-school students around the world through STEM. In doing so students are empowered to collectively tackle the world's most pressing challenges and come up with solutions that improve quality of life for all. The FIRST Global Challenge is the mechanism for doing so. By bringing future STEM leaders together in an engaging and collaborative competition that drives home the importance, excitement, and applicability of STEM education, FIRST Global is using robots and technology challenges to build young adults that have the self-confidence, skill sets, imagination, courage, and vision to do important things. This year's theme challenged FIRST Global teams of students from around the world to collaboratively innovate to maximize biodiversity and protect the incredible variety of life that sustains us all. From rainforests to coral reefs, the health of us and our planet depends on it!

For a long time many (although by no means all) scholars saw the relationship between capitalism and democracy as mutually reinforcing: economic competition and growth were expected to sustain democratic competition and improve governance and public good delivery for citizens, in turn creating a better environment for capitalist competition to flourish. But as capitalism has changed and has in many respects freed itself from the constraints of the state and of democratic processes, it has unleashed a new era of extreme wealth accumulation, deregulated markets, weak states, unresponsive political elites, and choiceless democracies. In this episode, CEDAR host Licia Cianetti talks to Rachel Riedl about her recent essay on “Neoliberalism and the Third Wave” to better understand why and how this happened and what we can do about it. This episode is part of PPP's ongoing collaboration with the Journal of Democracy. Rachel Beatty Riedl is Professor of public policy and government at Cornell University and the Peggy J. Koenig '78 Director of the Brooks Center on Global Democracy. Her latest co-edited book is entitled Global Challenges to Democracy: Comparative Perspectives on Backsliding, Autocracy, and Resilience (CUP 2025). Licia Cianetti is Lecturer in Political Science and International Studies at the University of Birmingham and Deputy Founding Director of CEDAR. Her latest publication is “What is a “regime”?

It's hard to ignore how much is unraveling right in front of us—fires, floods, people barely scraping by while systems stay the same. The scale of it all can feel paralyzing, like no matter what you do, it won't be enough. But even with all the frustration and fatigue, there's still this stubborn hope that change is possible. The real challenge is figuring out how to stay grounded and useful in a world that often makes caring feel like a burden. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B_u-et4UZrk Sandra Waddock is an academic and author focused on large-scale system change. Her latest book, Catalyzing Transformation, explores how to shift complex systems to tackle global issues like climate change and inequality. She's worked on international research panels and brings a deep systems-thinking lens to her work. Today, she breaks down her framework into three parts: connecting, cohering, and amplifying. It's all about collaboration without ego to drive lasting change. Stay tuned! Resources: Follow Sandra Waddock on Facebook Connect with Sandra Waddock on LinkedIn

Lured Up Podcast 351Live Streamed on - 6/25/25Publish Date - 6/27/27This week Ken is joined by Jamal Harvey of the Wayspotters Podcast! Jamal sits in for Adam and joins the fray to dive into the last week of Pokémon GO action. We kick things off with a gameplay recap, touching on Yamper's Paw Prints, Jangmo-o Community Day, and the start of Ancients Recovered. All of this action is coming just a week before GO Fest Global, which calls for Trainers to really put a lot of gameplay and potential spending on the table.As we gear up for Global we cover additional details on the Ultra Unlocks, as July content is just around the corner. While Niantic has shared their July Content update, there is still plenty of content left in June. Global Challenges and Ultra Unlocks make their return for Global, and we have dates in July for events that can be boosted if we meet the criteria. With Trainer's 100% track record of completing the Global Challenges, we are confident that we will see all three tiers of Ultra Unlocks impact future events.Thanks to Niantic, we are giving away GO Fest: Global tickets across our social media channels. Make sure you check out LuredUp.com for links to everywhere you can enter! There are a few bits of miscellaneous news to cover this week as we peek into the July Content Update. Quaxly has been picked as the January Community Day Pokémon. Europe follows Japan's lead and is hosting their own stamp rally, as Americans patiently wait their turn to take part in this cool new feature. A wild story has rocked the Wayfarer World as gameboards near a few different Marine bases have been wiped clean. With adjacent towns that have completely built gameboards being impacted, we are hoping that this isn't something that continues. We speculate on what can be the cause, we have a quick one-liner from Niantic in the forums, pretty much telling us that there is nothing they can do, and that Trainers should move on from their concerns. We all know however, that Wayfinders aren't the type to not jump head first down the rabbit hole.Yamper's Paw PrintsAncients RecoveredCommunity Day: Jangmo-oGO Fest GlobalUltra UnlocksAdventure EffectsGlobal Ticket GiveawayCommunity Ambassador Video9th Anniversary EventJuly Content UpdateCommunity Day: QuaxlyStamp RallyJacksonville, NCLuredUp@PokemonProfessor.com    Voicemail and SMS: 732-835-8639 Use code FULLHEAL at https://tgacards.com/ for 10% off your order!Connect with us on multiple platforms! https://linktr.ee/PokemonProfessorNetwork HostsKen PescatoreAdam TuttleWriter and ProducerKen PescatoreExecutive Producer XanderShow music provided by GameChops and licensed through Creative Commons▾ FOLLOW GAMECHOPS ▾http://instagram.com/GameChopshttp://twitter.com/GameChopshttp://soundcloud.com/GameChopshttp://facebook.com/GameChopshttp://youtube.com/GameChopshttp://www.gamechops.comIntro MusicLake Verity (Drum & Bass Remix) TetracaseGameChops - Ultraballhttp://gamechops.com/ultraball/https://soundcloud.com/tetracase https://soundcloud.com/MegaFlare0Break MusicNational ParkMikel & GameChopsGameChops - Poké & Chillhttp://smarturl.it/pokechillhttps://twitter.com/mikel_beatsOutro MusicVast Poni CanyonCG5 & GlitchxCity (Future Bass Remix)GameChops - Ultraballhttp://gamechops.com/ultraball/ http://soundcloud.com/cg5-beatshttps://soundcloud.com/glitchxcityPokémon And All Respective Names are Trademark and © of Nintendo 1996-2025 Pokémon GO is Trademark and © of Niantic, Inc.Lured Up and the Pokémon Professor Network are not affiliated with Niantic Inc., The Pokémon Company, Game Freak or Nintendo.#pokemon #pokemongo #podcast

Lured Up Podcast 344Live Streamed on - 4/23/25Publish Date - 4/25/25The last week of gameplay had some ups and downs! The Horizons Event was a ton of fun, combining a great encounter pool with fun costumed Pokémon. The Shiny chase kept Trainers engaged in the wild, while some focused on hatching Tinkatink from 7 km eggs. The positive sentiment around the Horizons Event was dulled a bit however, by a GMAX Snorlax Max Battle Day that had significant issues during the catch phase. With wonky throw physics and catch circle, Trainers had a lot of Snorlax run on them, and it felt pretty bad.Adam is clearly excited over Sweet Discoveries, which for him may as well just be a Delibird event. It's really all about the Apples, which bring in a new mechanic and evolution currency. Early feedback is that apples in the wild are exceptionally rare, so Mossy Lures are definitely the play for those on the Applin grind. This could be a really cool mechanic that could be repurposed a few different ways to improve on immersion and maybe even some persistent gameplay between Trainers.There are plenty of events already announced leading into May, and the advanced notice is definitely welcomed. With the high demands that this game makes on Trainer's schedules, knowing what is coming up is very important to prioritizing gameplay time. Growing Up, Crown Clash, and DMAX Suicune are all on the table for May, and we are sure there is even more in store.Our open discussion this week is once again about Wayfarer, with the Global Challenge coming to an early end, it really seems like Niantic Spatial is ready for the split. With reviewers outpacing the nominations, there was a pretty significant breakdown in the process. Wayfinders were faced with long load times and plenty of refreshing to get reviews to populate. Ending the challenge early left some in a position to not hit their goals (even though the reward thresholds were lowered). We did see some great transparency from Tintino, but this left the forums in a state that was rocky at best.Pokémon Horizons EventGMAX SnorlaxDMAX EnteiSweet DiscoveriesGrowing UpCrown ClashMax Battle Weekend: Dynamax SuicuneWayfarer Challenge Ends EarlyWayfarer WebsiteReviewing WayspotsWayfarer Community ForumsNiantic Helpshift WayfarerWayfarer on XStay up to date by adding our Google Calendar to your account!LuredUp@PokemonProfessor.com    Voicemail and SMS: 732-835-8639 Use code FULLHEAL at https://tgacards.com/ for 10% off your order!Support the show by bookmarking and shopping at TCGPlayer.com using this link - https://bit.ly/TCGPlayerAffiliate Connect with us on multiple platforms! https://linktr.ee/PokemonProfessorNetwork HostsKen PescatoreAdam TuttleWriter and ProducerKen PescatoreExecutive Producer XanderShow music provided by GameChops and licensed through Creative Commons▾ FOLLOW GAMECHOPS ▾http://instagram.com/GameChopshttp://twitter.com/GameChopshttp://soundcloud.com/GameChopshttp://facebook.com/GameChopshttp://youtube.com/GameChopshttp://www.gamechops.comIntro MusicLake Verity (Drum & Bass Remix) TetracaseGameChops - Ultraballhttp://gamechops.com/ultraball/https://soundcloud.com/tetracase https://soundcloud.com/MegaFlare0Break MusicNational ParkMikel & GameChopsGameChops - Poké & Chillhttp://smarturl.it/pokechillhttps://twitter.com/mikel_beatsOutro MusicVast Poni CanyonCG5 & GlitchxCity (Future Bass Remix)GameChops - Ultraballhttp://gamechops.com/ultraball/ http://soundcloud.com/cg5-beatshttps://soundcloud.com/glitchxcityPokémon And All Respective Names are Trademark and © of Nintendo 1996-2025 Pokémon GO is Trademark and © of Niantic, Inc.Lured Up and the Pokémon Professor Network are not affiliated with Niantic Inc., The Pokémon Company, Game Freak or Nintendo.#pokemon #pokemongo #podcast

In the first month of the new Trump Administration, much of the attention outside our borders has focused on Europe and the Middle East—the two regions that always seem to divert our focus from America's greatest competitor, the People's Republic of China (PRC). We often think of the challenge in terms of the most obvious arena—the Pacific—but it extends from the Arctic to Africa and, increasingly, to space.Returning to Midrats this Sunday to discuss the PRC's challenge for the new administration is Dean Cheng.Dean Cheng, Senior Advisor, United States Institute of Peace; Non-resident Senior Fellow, Potomac Institute for Policy Studies; Non-resident Fellow, George Washington University Space Policy Institute.He recently retired after 13 years with the Heritage Foundation, where he was a senior research fellow on Chinese political and security affairs, and wrote on various aspects of Chinese foreign and defense policy.Prior to joining the Heritage Foundation, he was a senior analyst with the China Studies Division (previously, Project Asia) at CNA from 2001-2009. Before joining CNA, he was a senior analyst with Science Applications International Corporation (SAIC) from 1996-2001.

In this conversation, Lisa and Elbridge Colby discuss the current state of global affairs, particularly in relation to the foreign policy of President Trump compared to Joe Biden. They explore the challenges facing the U.S. in reasserting its authority on the world stage, the importance of military strength, and the need for a realistic approach to international relations.
