Usama Dakdok is the Founder of the Straight Way of Grace Ministry. He is the speaker on the daily radio broadcast Revealing the Truth About Islam. It has become a common thing for Israelis to be woken by sirens. This morning was no exception. But this time there is shock as they learned that one of the country's major hospitals was hit by a missile from Iran. Additional sites were hit in Tel Aviv. We understand it was the hospital's old surgical building that suffered damage. CBN reported that one of the doctors indicated just yesterday that they had evacuated the old surgical building that took a direct hit. He said, "It's a great miracle." Israel's Prime Minister is vowing that the dictators in Tehran will pay "the full price." Tehran is calling for an Islamic Army to wage war on Israel. The Council on American Islamic Relations is demanding that President Trump halt U.S. weapons transfers to Israel. CAIR-NJ is condemning Israel for what they call "an unprovoked attack on Iran." The Al-Qaeda leader is calling upon Muslims to assassinate President Trump and other high-ranking officials. Earlier this month a Muslim in Boulder, CO was suspected of firebombing a group of pro-Israel protestors leaving 15 injured. He is an Egyptian national. And as reported recently on JihadWatch.org, The Council on American-Islamic Relations Director Nihad Awad is hosting training sessions to help citizens spot ICE agents and alert mobs to target them. One anti-ICE protestor is calling out "Allahu-akbar." Pew Research reported earlier this month that on a global basis, Islam is growing faster than all other religions. What's going on? Haven't we been forewarned this would happen?

Former Israeli government spokesman, Eylon Levy joins The Winston Marshall Show to break down the recent wave of attacks between Israel and Iran—and what they signal for the future of the Middle East.Levy details how the Islamic Republic's fingerprints are all over the region's escalating chaos: from Hamas's massacre on October 7th, to missile strikes launched from Syria and Iraq, to Hezbollah's mounting aggression in the north. He warns that Iran's proxy war is entering a new phase.We discuss wavering support, the failure of Western deterrence, and why the global community's obsession with “proportionality” is empowering the very forces threatening regional—and global—stability.All this—Iranian escalation, proxy terror, Western weakness, and the gathering storm on Israel's borders…-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------To see more exclusive content and interviews consider subscribing to my substack here: https://www.winstonmarshall.co.uk/-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------FOLLOW ME ON SOCIAL MEDIA:Substack: https://www.winstonmarshall.co.uk/X: https://twitter.com/mrwinmarshallInsta: https://www.instagram.com/winstonmarshallLinktree: https://linktr.ee/winstonmarshall----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------0:00 Introduction3:20 What's happening 7:15 The Problem With Western Media10:48 What the Left Gets Wrong About Israel14:32 The ‘Decolonization' Narrative19:40 Is Israel Winning the Media War?25:10 The Iranian Threat & Israel's Dilemma29:30 The Disinformation Playbook34:45 The Global Rise of Antisemitism38:00 Why Israel Is Fighting for the West41:45 TikTok Genocide Deniers & Online Hate45:30 The Limits of International Law49:00 What Happens After Hamas?52:40 Eylon's Message to the World Hosted on Acast.

A popular meme in Kenya goes something like this: everytime China visits, we get a hospital. When the US visits, we get a lecture.  That's of course not an accurate picture of the competition between the West and China in the global South, but it does highlight a certain disconnect that can be perceived widely among many in these regions which have been included in the Belt and Road projects, or who have otherwise fallen out of favor in terms of their previous allies. This week on Departures we are pleased to feature a conversation with the author Dr. Oriana Skylar Mastro, a Center Fellow at the Freeman Spogli Institute for International Studies and a Courtesy Assistant Professor of Political Science at Stanford University. Dr. Mastro's new book, "Upstart: How China Became a Great Power," is a tour de force examining how China was able to climb to great power status through a careful mix of strategic emulation, exploitation, and entrepreneurship on the international stage - which ended up being not so different from a startup business aiming to disrupt a ringfenced status quo. Dr. Mastro's book is enormously helpful in challenging how we understand China's success and aims to offer insights on how the response from Washington and other Western allies to adjust to the geopolitical realities that lie beyond the newspaper headlines.

Welcome to the podcast! Today, I am thrilled to have a true pioneer in the field of metabolic health, Dr. Robert Lustig, MD, joining us. Dr. Lustig is a neuroendocrinologist and Professor Emeritus of Pediatrics in the Division of Endocrinology at the University of California, San Francisco. He is best known for his groundbreaking work on the intersection of diet, obesity, and metabolic disease, particularly his deep dive into the role of sugar as a driving force behind many of today's chronic health issues. As the author of several influential books, including Fat Chance, The Hacking of the American Mind and Metabolical, Dr. Lustig has been a vocal advocate for public health, helping to raise awareness about the harmful effects of processed foods, particularly refined sugars. His research has been instrumental in shifting the conversation around nutrition, focusing on the biological impacts of sugar and the ways it contributes to insulin resistance, obesity, and metabolic syndrome. His most recent paper entitled Obesogens, A Unifying Theory for the Global Rise in Obesity in the International Journal of Obesity - Nature is a ground stirring take on the current research. We are excited to explore his latest insights into metabolic health and the science of obesity, and how we can apply this knowledge to improve our own well-being. Let's welcome Dr. Lustig to the show! Dr. M

Linktree: https://linktr.ee/AnalyticNotorious Mass Effect: Éxodo de Peso Pluma y el Ascenso Global del CorridoEste segmento explora la última entrega de Peso Pluma, el extenso álbum doble Éxodo, con un enfoque en su explosiva colaboración con Cardi B en "Put Em In The Fridge".Éxodo: Un Espectáculo de Doble ÁlbumPeso Pluma lanza su cuarto álbum de estudio, Éxodo, un gigante de 24 pistas que presenta una gama diversa de colaboradores. Este lanzamiento sigue su Génesis ganador del Grammy y marca su continua exploración más allá de los corridos tradicionales. Aquí, se aventura en el hip-hop y el reggaetón sin dejar de lado sus raíces.Cardi B y la Poderosa "Put Em In The Fridge"Una de las pistas destacadas de Éxodo es la electrizante "Put Em In The Fridge", con la legendaria Cardi B. Esta colaboración es una fuerza a tener en cuenta, uniendo a dos figuras poderosas en sus respectivos géneros. Las letras de Pluma destilan control y dominio, mientras que Cardi B inyecta su característico estilo con referencias a figuras influyentes como Al Pacino.Fusión Musical: Corridos y Más Allá"Put Em In The Fridge" ejemplifica el paisaje sonoro único de Éxodo. La pista combina a la perfección elementos tradicionales mexicanos como las trompetas y la guitarra requinto con el bajo pesado de los ritmos trap modernos. Esta fusión refleja la misión general de Éxodo: ampliar los límites de los corridos integrándolos con los mundos del hip-hop, el reggaetón y el trap. Pluma no se detiene en Cardi B, ya que Éxodo cuenta con colaboraciones con Rich the Kid, Quavo, DJ Snake, Anitta, Arcángel y Ryan Castro.Estrella Global, Impacto Cultural y ControversiaPeso Pluma se ha convertido en un fenómeno global, llevando los ricos sonidos de la música mexicana, particularmente los corridos, a un público más amplio. Sin embargo, su ascenso no está exento de polémica. Los corridos tienen un vínculo histórico con la cultura del narcotráfico, algo que Peso Pluma reconoce pero que maneja con cautela debido a las posibles amenazas de los cárteles. En Coachella, trazó paralelismos entre los corridos y el movimiento del gangsta rap de los 90, destacando el complejo legado del género.Éxodo: Una Declaración de Visión ArtísticaÉxodo puede verse como el manifiesto artístico de Peso Pluma. Muestra su versatilidad y ambición de trascender la escena musical regional mexicana y convertirse en una fuerza global. El álbum cuenta con corridos tradicionales y experimentos rompedores con el hip-hop y el reggaetón, lo que refleja su evolución artística. Este crecimiento se enfatiza aún más por su éxito en las listas y su capacidad para colaborar con estrellas internacionales.Peso Pluma: Una Fuerza Global en la Música MexicanaÉxodo, con sus colaboraciones repletas de estrellas como "Put Em In The Fridge" con Cardi B, ejemplifica la misión de Peso Pluma de elevar los corridos a un nivel mainstream. Este innovador álbum no solo amplía sus horizontes musicales sino que también consolida su posición como un artista global que mezcla sin miedo las influencias culturales y empuja los límites de la música mexicana.Notorious Mass Effect: Peso Pluma's Éxodo and the Global Rise of CorridosThis segment explores Peso Pluma's latest offering, the expansive double album Éxodo, with a focus on his explosive collaboration with Cardi B on "Put Em In The Fridge."Éxodo: A Double Album ExtravaganzaPeso Pluma drops his fourth studio album, Éxodo, a 24-track behemoth featuring a diverse range of collaborators. This release follows his Grammy-winning Génesis and signifies his continued exploration beyond traditional corridos. Here, he ventures into hip-hop and reggaeton while staying true to his roots.Cardi B and the Powerhouse "Put Em In The Fridge"One standout track on Éxodo is the electrifying "Put Em In The Fridge," featuring the legendary Cardi B. This collaboration is a force to be reckoned with, uniting two powerhouse figures in their respective genres. Pluma's lyrics exude control and dominance, while Cardi B injects her signature swagger with references to influential figures like Al Pacino.Musical Fusion: Corridos and Beyond"Put Em In The Fridge" exemplifies the unique soundscape of Éxodo. The track seamlessly blends traditional Mexican elements like horns and requinto guitar with the heavy bass of modern trap beats. This fusion reflects Éxodo's overall mission: pushing the boundaries of corridos by integrating them with the worlds of hip-hop, reggaeton, and trap. Pluma doesn't stop at Cardi B, with Éxodo boasting collaborations with Rich the Kid, Quavo, DJ Snake, Anitta, Arcángel, and Ryan Castro.Global Star, Cultural Impact, and ControversyPeso Pluma has become a global phenomenon, bringing the rich sounds of música Mexicana, particularly corridos, to a wider audience. However, his rise is not without controversy. Corridos have a historical link to narco culture, something Peso Pluma acknowledges but treads carefully around due to potential threats from cartels. At Coachella, he drew parallels between corridos and the '90s gangsta rap movement, highlighting the complex legacy of the genre.Éxodo: A Statement of Artistic VisionÉxodo can be seen as Peso Pluma's artistic manifesto. It showcases his versatility and ambition to transcend the regional Mexican music scene and become a global force. The album boasts both traditional corridos and genre-bending experiments with hip-hop and reggaeton, reflecting his evolving artistic vision. This growth is further emphasized by his chart success and his ability to collaborate with international stars.Peso Pluma: A Global Force in Mexican MusicÉxodo, with its star-studded collaborations like "Put Em In The Fridge" with Cardi B, exemplifies Peso Pluma's mission to elevate corridos to a mainstream level. This innovative album not only expands his musical horizons but also cements his position as a global artist who fearlessly blends cultural influences and pushes the boundaries of música Mexicana.Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/analytic-dreamz-notorious-mass-effect/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

On today's show, Ben sits down with Dr. Juan Llamas-Rodriguez, Assistant Professor at the Annenberg School for Communication at the University of Pennsylvania, to discuss his research at the intersections of border studies, infrastructure studies, and Latin American and Latinx diasporic media.We begin by discussing Juan's approaches to media studies and challenges in the field, then dive into his new book, Border Tunnels: A Media Theory of the U.S.-Mexico Underground (University of Minnesota Press). Together, we reflect on the role of media representing border tunnels–underground networks of built and excavated spaces circumventing the above-ground border. As Juan notes, these tunnels are “nearly inaccessible” to the general public, so through their representation, we see media's capacity to give meaning to “spaces and structures in excess of their real referent.” Importantly, Juan shows us how the “figure of the border tunnel” relates to the escalating efforts to violently fortify and police the U.S.-Mexico border. Juan helps us understand the affordances and limitations of border tunnels' depictions in reality television, newscasts, action films, video games, and speculative design projects. We reflect on the role of popular films that appear in the book, such as the Fast and Furious franchise, video games like Call of Juarez: The Cartel, and the reality television series Border Wars in constructing what Juan calls the “racial infrastructures of the border.” This timely conversation helps us rethink our relationship with popular media and culture, drawing out the seemingly invisible role of border tunnels in shaping our understanding of the borderlands.

Is the Speaker of the House really the voice of the American people? Does the President's influence over this selection process indicate a power play or is it merely a routine part of the political system? Join Doug Billings, as he dives into these pressing questions, and discuss the meltdown of the Radical Left. We'll be discussing Trump's involvement in the selection process and the fallout from his influence. Moreover, we'll be introducing Speaker Mike Johnson, a strong advocate for life, election integrity, and a measured response to pressing issues like Ukraine aid and the LGTBQ+ community's influence on children.As we pivot our focus to the Middle East, we'll assess the current state of tension and America's response. Can we ignore the threats posed by the Biden administration's relaxed border policies or disregard the role the Obama administration played in empowering Iran's terrorist tendencies? From the potential threats posed by Iran to Egypt's role in providing aid to Palestinians, we'll explore the complex dynamics unfolding in the Middle East. Finally, we'll tap into the global rise of conservatism and discuss the upcoming Determined Patriotism Conference. From New Zealand to Canada, nations are embracing conservative leadership. Mike Johnson's potential election as Speaker of the House carries a potent message against establishment politicians. But what does that mean for global politics, especially regarding an Israeli attack on Iran? Join us as we delve into these topics, keeping America first and understanding the gravity of saving our Republic.---------------All content is FREE!

Imagine being trapped in the narrative spun by the radical left media and still having the power to control the conversation. That's precisely what Pierre Pauliev, a Canadian Prime Minister candidate, does with aplomb. We go deep into how this unique approach allows him to stay in control during interviews, and how it serves as a masterclass to handle woke journalists who wield their opinion as a weapon. You've heard of how the media can be weaponized, but have you seen it in action? We delve into how the Department of Justice has been used to target certain groups while others are portrayed as 'freedom fighters' and 'social justice warriors'. Finally, let's talk about hope. President Trump's rising popularity, the potential impact of Robert F Kennedy Jr joining the race, and the crucial battleground states where Trump leads are all compelling reasons for optimism. ------------------All content is FREE!

For NSP #50, we spoke with Pirate Wire Services editor and radical journalist Joshua Collins. Joshua became a freelance journalist by accident after he ended up living on the Colombian-Venezuelan border in 2017 (also by accident). His career was driven primarily in the beginning by simply being willing to go to regions no one else would. He is now focused on borders, social movements and the impact of criminality on human rights.

Commercial dating agencies that facilitate marriages across national borders comprise a $2.5 billion global industry. Ideas about the industry are rife with stereotypes-younger, more physically attractive brides from non-Western countries being paired with older Western men.  These ideas are more myth than fact, Monica Liu finds in Seeking Western Men: Email-Order Brides Under China's Global Rise (Stanford UP, 2022). Her study of China's email-order bride industry offers stories of Chinese women who are primarily middle-aged, divorced, and proactively seeking spouses to fulfill their material and sexual needs. What they seek in their Western partners is tied to what they believe they've lost in the shifting global economy around them. Ranging from multimillionaire entrepreneurs or ex-wives and mistresses of wealthy Chinese businessmen, to contingent sector workers and struggling single mothers, these women, along with their translators and potential husbands from the US, Canada, and Australia, make up the actors in this multifaceted story. Set against the backdrop of China's global economic ascendance and a relative decline of the West, this book asks: How does this reshape Chinese women's perception of Western masculinity? Through the unique window of global internet dating, this book reveals the shifting relationships of race, class, gender, sex, and intimacy across borders. Dr. Monica Liu is a sociologist whose teaching and research interests include gender, globalization, family, immigration, race/ethnicity, Asia and Asian America, digital technology/media, and qualitative methods. She has explored the phenomenon of global internet dating and cross-border marriage between women from China and men from English-speaking Western countries. She is currently working on a new project that examines institutional racism against Asian women leaders in higher education. Born and raised in China, Dr. Liu immigrated to the U.S. at the age of eight. Before joining the University of St. Thomas, she taught at Colgate University and Carleton College. Victoria Oana Lupașcu is an Assistant Professor of Comparative Literature and Asian Studies at University of Montréal.

"Commercial dating agencies that facilitate marriages across national borders comprise a $2.5 billion global industry. Ideas about the industry are rife with stereotypes—younger ... brides being paired with older Western men. These ideas are more myth than fact, Monica Liu finds in Seeking Western Men."This week, NüVoices host Solarina Ho speaks with sociologist and assistant professor Monica Liu about her new book, Seeking Western Men, which explores the phenomenon of global internet dating and cross-border marriages, partiularly among middle-aged, divorced women in China. She discusses the grievances women in China have with society and their own failed marriages, and why some believe a better life exists through this route. But reality is often very different. Liu explains why, and how the experiences of these women challenge scholars and others to rethink conventional notions of race and class. She also shares her experiences as an academic doing research in China and how that has evolved over the last decade.

This week the hosts discuss why people may be forgetting their COVID pandemic memories, and they examine new research that shows refined carbs and red meat are driving a global rise in type 2 diabetes. Plus, they share a tasty brunch recipe for Welsh Rarebit.
