Podcasts about governing

Quick conversation on The Ravit Show from Boomi World 2026 with John Baker, CIO and CISO at Lexitas. One of the most grounded customer perspectives I have heard this year. Thanks for the amazing insights, John :)John was clear about why Lexitas refused to treat data management and agentic AI as separate projects, what his team stopped wasting time on after Boomi, and why agent governance is the part most enterprises underestimate. Agents are only predictable when the layer beneath them is.My takeaway. The architecture decision is the AI decision.#data #ai #BoomiWorld #theravitshow

Taylor Jung on how Zohran Mamdani uses media, messaging, and policy to shape public perception Zohran Mamdani has been mayor of New York City for less than a year, but his influence already extends far beyond the five boroughs. In this episode of The Margin, Taylor Jung, a journalist with Epicenter NYC, joins host Jen Taylor-Skinner to discuss Mamdani's first months in office, the excitement surrounding his inauguration, and why his approach to politics has captured national attention. The conversation explores the policies Mamdani has begun to roll out, from housing to childcare, the challenges of governing after running on a bold progressive vision, and the growing role of content creators in shaping political narratives. Jung also discusses how Mamdani's team has used social media and highly produced digital content to build a national audience, the evolving relationship between journalists and influencers, and what it all means for political communication in the digital age. As Mamdani's administration takes shape, the conversation offers a window into the opportunities—and challenges—of governing in a rapidly changing media environment.

Central Baptist Church in Kansas City Sunday sermon with Samuel Nelson. Romans 13:1-7

In this Mentorship session Apostle Priji addresses questions on spiritual authority, leadership, and walking in alignment with God's purpose. Through biblical teaching and personal insights, Apostle Priji answers questions such as: - Is there ranking and levels of authority in the spirit? - How does God entrust authority to people? - What is the difference between power and authority? - And how can believers grow in genuine spiritual influence without striving for position?Drawing from the life and teachings of Jesus, this session explores how authority is cultivated through sonship, obedience, humility, and intimacy with God rather than through gifting or human recognition. Apostle Priji also addresses practical aspects of responding to challenges, honoring spiritual structures, and exercising kingdom authority with wisdom and love.Whether you are a leader, minister, or believer desiring deeper spiritual maturity, this mentorship will help you understand how heaven's authority operates and how to steward it faithfully. Tune in and be equipped to walk in the authority that Christ has already entrusted to His Church.

In this week's episode, co-host Ryan Coonerty speaks with Wyoming House Democratic Leader Mike Yin. They discuss how his district includes Jackson Hole -- one of the most beautiful and wealthiest places in the world, sitting alongside Grand Teton National Park. But beneath that natural beauty are serious challenges, from growing income inequality to limited access to affordable housing and healthcare. The conversation covers what it means to represent a community facing those realities while serving in one of the most Republican states in the country. Yin shares how he works across the aisle to build support for legislation that improves healthcare access, addresses housing affordability, and responds to local communities' needs. They also talk about Yin's path to elected office and the challenge of balancing public service with a full-time career, and his experience as the first Chinese American legislator in Wyoming history. Tune in to learn about governing across divides and finding ways to create change where it matters most.

Karl Moll (Technical Project Advocate at FINOS) sits down with Grizz Griswold to discuss how CALM (Common Architecture Language Model) is acting as the structural glue connecting compliance projects across the banking ecosystem. He breaks down the momentum behind the Open SDLC Controls Framework and how these tools together build a secure, governable pipeline for unpredictable AI deployments.

In dieser Folge geht es um Nonprofit-Organisationen – Vereine, Stiftungen, Genossenschaften, Verbände – und um die Frage, welche Werkzeuge aus der KMU-Welt dort wirklich funktionieren. Vorstände kommen meist erst dann auf mich zu, wenn die Situation schon recht verfahren ist. Es wird viel geredet und wenig umgesetzt, Verantwortlichkeiten sind unklar, und das Frustpotenzial wächst von Sitzung zu Sitzung. Anhand eines Schweizer Verbandes, mit dem ich kürzlich ein Strategiewochenende durchgeführt habe, zeige ich dir, woran NPOs typischerweise leiden – am Ehrenamt und an den Entscheidungswegen – und wie du beides in den Griff bekommst. Du lernst die vier KMU-Werkzeuge kennen, die auch in NPOs funktionieren: den SVUP für Vision und Strategie, Rocks oder OKRs für Quartalsprioritäten, ein passendes Sitzungsformat und die Accountability Chart für Rollen-Klarheit. Dazu zwei Stolperfallen, die du unbedingt kennen musst: die Ehrenamt-Logik und die Entscheidungslogik – inklusive der Frage, warum Mehrheitsentscheide selten der beste Weg sind und der Konsent meistens besser funktioniert. Im zweiten Teil stelle ich dir die acht Prinzipien von Elinor Ostrom aus „Governing the Commons“ vor. Sie sind keine Werkzeuge, sondern Designkriterien – und genau das, was deine NPO-Werkzeuge in der Praxis tragfähig macht. Wenn ihr im Vorstand mehr diskutiert als umsetzt und der Frust spürbar wächst, ist diese Folge dein Fahrplan.

Every election cycle, Christians argue about what they owe the government and where that obligation ends. Paul wrote the original version of that argument. The governing authority is God's servant, he says, and you owe it taxes, respect, and honor. That was written under Nero, which means Paul is not talking about a government that deserves your admiration. He is talking about an office God established for your good. Then he turns to the Christian's own life: put on the Lord Jesus Christ and make no provision for the flesh. How you live under authority and how you live before God are both answered. The Rev. Ryan Kleimola, pastor of Trinity Lutheran Church in Toledo, OH, joins the Rev. Dr. Phil Booe to study Romans 13:1–14. To learn more about Trinity Lutheran Church, visit trinitylutheran.org. Why does doing the right thing sometimes feel impossible? Why do feelings of guilt follow us even when we've been forgiven? These aren't new questions. St. Paul wrote his letter to the Romans for a church he had never visited, and yet he addressed the struggles every Christian knows firsthand: the weight of the law, the persistence of sin, the sufficiency of what God has done in Christ. Romans covers enormous ground. Paul moves from the universal problem of sin through justification by faith, the role of baptism, the war between flesh and spirit, God's faithfulness to Israel, and the shape of life together in the body of Christ. There's a reason the Reformation was born in this letter. Join us on Thy Strong Word as we open up Romans, weekdays at 11am or on-demand anytime, at KFUO.org.  Thy Strong Word, hosted by Rev. Dr. Phil Booe, pastor of St. John Lutheran Church of Luverne, MN, reveals the light of our salvation in Christ through study of God's Word, breaking our darkness with His redeeming light. Each weekday, two pastors fix our eyes on Jesus by considering Holy Scripture, verse by verse, in order to be strengthened in the Word and be equipped to faithfully serve in our daily vocations. Submit comments or questions to: thystrongword@kfuo.org.

Australia correspondent Nick Grimm spoke to Lisa Owen about Australia's major political parties continuing to grapple with a surge in support for One Nation, after a recent survey put the party polling ahead of the governing Labor Party. 

The Conference Board's president and CEO sees AI as less a technological challenge than a managerial one, exacerbated by increasing global volatility. Drawing parallels to the introduction of the personal computer, he argues that governance, workflow redesign, and organizational trust matter more than the technology itself.

Author Zeke Baker discusses the book, Governing Climate: How Science and Politics Have Shaped Our Environmental Future, reviewed in the May 2026 issue of Contemporary Sociology by Christopher M. Rea.

The fact that life is a bit of a grind for many people, and has been for some time, means we start to question the natural order of things. When you can pay your bills, have time to spend doing what you enjoy with the people you love, when there aren't glaring inequities, when the failure of the present system and the people who run it aren't up in your face, when you don't see homeless people and beggars and violence, then everything's good. You accept the status quo; things are chugging along nicely. Democracy, capitalism, everybody's getting their fair share, everything's fine. But when things start to go wrong, and go wrong the Western world over, you start to wonder. Thomas Hobbes was a 17th century political philosopher who formulated the social contract theory, whereby people collectively agree —you'll remember this from your political theory studies back in the days of yore— to surrender some of their individual freedoms and transfer their power to a central absolute authority. In exchange, that authority —in this case our government— provides security, maintains order, and guarantees the preservation of life. In modern life, we've wanted a bit more than the preservation of life, we've wanted a little bit of fun, some enjoyment. Be that as it may, without the social contract, Hobbes argues that man's life would be solitary, poor, nasty, brutish, and short. And when you look at his definitions, we're heading that way. Solitary he defines as the constant distrust that prevents people from forming lasting bonds or cooperation. He didn't know anything about social media at the time, but that's what you're starting to get solitary individuals who don't want to or don't know how to connect with others. Poor he defines as having no incentive to build, farm, or invest labour, as others will simply steal the fruits of your work. Nasty violence and conflict are ever present. Brutish life devolves into a primitive existence stripped of any kind of enjoyment, civilisation, art, culture. And short the perpetual threat and danger of a sudden violent death looming over everyone. It might not be violence that gets us, but if our healthcare systems are failing and you can't afford private care, death or a long unpleasant illness might be our version of Hobbes' short life. We are not there yet. If you've popped into the car and think, “bloody hell, she's a depressing tart, honestly, she does go on," consider me the canary down the coal mine. I'm warning we could well be on our way there. Look at his definitions and tell me I'm wrong. Solitary, poor, nasty as in violent, brutish where there's no time or money to enjoy the nicer things in life. So if the social contract is failing us, we need a better system. And what is a better system than an MMP government and capitalism? When MMP was voted in, it was voted in in anger. People were either devastated or appalled, or they'd seen New Zealand's old way of life completely destroyed by Rogernomics and by Ruth Richardson. Now, maybe it had to be done, but it was done pretty brutally, and people suffered as a result. So the public voted First Past the Post out as a punishment to those politicians, but also because the smaller parties that came up as an alternative, like Social Credit and New Zealand Party, despite getting 20% in the case of Social Credit, 12% in the case of the New Zealand Party, they had very few MPs or no MPs in Parliament despite having so many people. And in '78 and '81, Labour actually got more votes than National, but fewer electorates, so they stayed in opposition and National was in power. So with MMP, Ruth Richardson argues that we have a high level of representation, which is great, but a really low level of government, which is failing us. Helen Clark says MMP has produced a stop go, stop go system of policies which has been detrimental to New Zealand in the long run. So where do we go from here? I'd argue that we're at a point in the Western world where we're on a descent and we need to ascend. With MMP, we were trying to find a better way of doing things. We looked at what a First Past the Post government did and said, “No, we don't want this to happen again. So we're going to bring in MMP and things will be better.” I don't think they are. Having lived under both, I don't think they are. Capitalism well, what's the alternative to capitalism? Communism doesn't work and has caused far more harm to the ordinary person around the world than capitalism has, but there'd be others who'd argue against that. What do we do from here? We're willing to cede our own individual powers to an authority, a government, to live a better life. If we're not getting that better life, then where do we go from here? What alternatives do we have? If this system right now and I'm talking the Western world, not just New Zealand, because have a look at any other country and you can't really see a shining example of where democracy and capitalism is working. Is there anything better, or do we just have to wait for this system to recover? See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Alan Rozenshtein, Research Director at Lawfare and Visiting Senior Fellow at the Institute for Law & AI (LawAI), spoke with Christoph Winter, LawAI Founding Director and Assistant Professor of Law and AI at the University of Cambridge, and LawAI Senior Research Fellow Charlie Bullock, about their new paper "Radical Optionality: Governing Transformative AI Under Uncertainty," which argues that, given the possibility of transformative AI within the next decade and deep uncertainty about its capabilities and risks, governments should aggressively build the institutional capacity to regulate competently when needed, rather than either deferring to the market or locking in premature substantive rules. The conversation covered the four foundational assumptions underlying the paper and what makes the optionality "radical"; the difficulty of regulating an exponentially improving and poorly understood technology and what it means to "feel the AGI"; why a pure permissionless-innovation approach breaks down once the national-security implications of transformative AI come into view; why the European precautionary approach risks regulating without the expertise to enforce; the centrality of hiring and talent and what an adequately funded U.S. counterpart to the UK AI Security Institute would look like; the concrete work that such an agency would do, including evaluations, standard-setting, and procurement-side cybersecurity requirements modeled on CMMC; the importance of building international information-sharing channels among liberal democracies before they are urgently needed; and the case against broad federal preemption of state AI laws before any federal regulatory framework exists.

In this episode of Regulation Matters: a CLEAR conversation, host Line Dempsey speaks with Tamara Richter and Carin Plischke about what major regulatory reform looks like in practice. Drawing from their organizations' experiences with legislative change, multi-profession regulation, governance restructuring, and large-scale organizational transformation, they discuss the realities of implementing change amid political pressure and uncertainty. The conversation explores change fatigue, communication strategies, public trust, evolving governance models, and the challenges of integrating new professions and organizational cultures. They also share candid reflections on lessons learned, what they would do differently, and practical advice for regulators preparing for significant change of their own. Transcript

Project 2025 began not as a campaign slogan, but as a 900‑plus page manual quietly assembled by the conservative Heritage Foundation and allied groups, titled Mandate for Leadership: The Conservative Promise. According to the Heritage Foundation's own description, it is meant to offer the next conservative president a ready‑to‑use blueprint for governing from day one. Former Trump officials helped draft it, and Heritage president Kevin Roberts has called it “a governing agenda and the personnel to carry it out.” At its core, Project 2025 is about reshaping the federal government itself. The plan urges a future administration to revive and expand “Schedule F,” a Trump‑era job classification that would let the president reclassify thousands of career civil servants as political appointees. Brookings Institution analysts note that this would make it far easier to fire existing staff and replace them with ideological loyalists, dramatically increasing White House control over agencies that have traditionally been more independent. The scope is sweeping. On education, Brookings reports that Project 2025 proposes dismantling the U.S. Department of Education, phasing out Title I funding for low‑income schools, and eliminating the Head Start program that serves children in poverty. It calls for rolling back federal civil‑rights protections for LGBTQ+ students and weakening enforcement of Title IX. Supporters frame this as restoring “parental rights” and shrinking “woke bureaucracy.” Critics warn it would leave vulnerable students with fewer protections and widen inequality. Other chapters reach deeply into social policy. The American Civil Liberties Union explains that Project 2025 recommends ending birthright citizenship, expanding mass deportations, and sharply limiting asylum, effectively remaking the immigration system in a more punitive direction. The Center for American Progress points to proposals to raise the Social Security retirement age to 69 and curb union power, including weakening the National Labor Relations Board and banning public‑sector unions, moves that labor advocates say would undercut working‑class economic security. Reproductive rights are another central front. Reproductive Freedom for All summarizes Project 2025 provisions that would restrict access to contraception and emergency contraception, block abortion medication nationwide, and even describe in‑vitro fertilization as something that should become “ethically unthinkable.” The ACLU argues these ideas would amount to a nationwide rollback of reproductive freedom driven by a specific religious vision of family life. Supporters of Project 2025 argue that all of this is needed to “rescue the country from the grip of the administrative state,” in the words of Heritage's introduction. Opponents, including the Stop Project 2025 Task Force in Congress, counter that it is “a manual on how to turn American democracy into a conservative, authoritarian nation” by concentrating power in the presidency and weakening checks and balances. In the months ahead, listeners can expect more concrete tests: confirmation battles over key appointees, court fights over Schedule F and agency authority, and election campaigns where candidates are pressed to say how closely they endorse the blueprint.

Kevin Werbach speaks with Venkat Siva, co-founder and CEO of CompFly AI, about why governing autonomous agents requires a fundamentally different approach than securing traditional software. Siva argues that agents create a genuinely new control problem. Because they decide at runtime which tools to call and which actions to take, governance cannot simply be bolted onto existing MLOps or security platforms built for fixed, deterministic workflows. Instead, control has to move to the "execution boundary" — the point where an agent's decision turns into a real-world action. And agent safety is much more than just model safety. In practical terms, Siva makes the case for giving every enterprise agent a distinct, cryptographically verifiable identity using decentralized identifiers (DIDs) and verifiable credentials. He addresses the growing problem of "shadow agents," pointing to employees experimenting with powerful open-source autonomous tools inside enterprises, and explains discovery techniques like intercepting traffic to model APIs and watching for who requests LLM keys. He offers the concept of an "autonomy budget": classify actions by reversibility and financial, regulatory, and customer impact, so an agent might autonomously issue a small refund but require human approval for a large one. Drawing on his time at the electric automaker Rivian, Siva closes by contrasting recoverable digital failures with the irreversible stakes of agents embedded in physical systems, arguing that governance there must borrow from safety engineering. Venkat Siva is the co-founder and CEO of CompFly AI, an early-stage company building a control plane to discover, validate, secure, and govern autonomous agents from code to production. Before founding CompFly with Anand Salodkar, he spent more than two decades building enterprise platform products that help organizations adopt new technology safely and at scale, including work at the electric vehicle maker Rivian.  Transcript The Architecture of Trust (Compfly Manifesto) CoSAI Model Context Protocol Security white paper

“When you're in a world that is careening out of control, where we've broken through seven of the nine safe dimensions of safe operating space that scientists have discovered, it's unrealistic in my view to focus on those little things and think that will lead to a real better outcome. What's realistic is backcasting.” — Jeremy Lent There Is An Alternative. That is the central argument of Jeremy Lent's new book, Ecocivilization: Making a World That Works for All. Margaret Thatcher's historically materialist TINA — THERE IS NO ALTERNATIVE — was both the most seductive and disempowering message the neoliberal establishment ever produced. As long as everyone believes in the inevitability of free market capitalism, nothing will ever really change. Anti-agency is the name of agency. We just push for slightly higher carbon taxes and slightly fewer fossil fuel subsidies and give it the euphemism of “progress.” For Lent, however, this is environmental capitulation. Jeremy Lent imagines a genuinely sustainable world — one where humans have a long-term relationship with the living Earth. From that vantage point, the steps that look realistic to the incrementalists seem timid or counterproductive. He reminds us that we've broken through seven of the nine safe operating dimensions that scientists have identified for a stable Earth system. No, incrementalism isn't realism. Rather than progress, it's a trance-like slide into the apocalypse. Rather than state control or free markets, the alternative Lent introduces in Ecocivilization is the commons — Nobel Prize-winning economist Elinor Ostrom's third way in which humans self-organise in the collaborative ways of the natural world. It is already happening, he says, in places as far apart as Cleveland, Ohio and Jackson, Mississippi. Maggie was wrong, the Anglo-American Lent insists. TINA is bunk. THERE IS AN ALTERNATIVE. Five Takeaways •       The Consensus Trance: Why Nobody Is Freaking Out: Everyone knows who's in and who's out in Washington today. Everyone knows their team's sports score. Almost nobody is aware of some of the bigger existential questions facing all of us. Lent's explanation: we have media owned by billionaires who don't benefit from people freaking out. The entire system is designed to lull people into what he calls a “consensus trance.” We broke through seven of the nine safe operating dimensions that scientists have identified for a stable Earth system. In normal times that would be front-page news every day. Instead: the news cycle moves on. •       Backcasting vs Incrementalism: The Two Realisms: There are two ways to use the word “realistic.” Realistic given the forces of destruction and oppression all around us right now: push for slightly higher taxes on the uber-wealthy, slightly fewer fossil fuel subsidies. Realistic given what a genuinely sustainable world would actually look like: start from the destination and work backwards. The first kind of realism may be taking us in the wrong direction. Lent's argument: when you're in a world careening out of control, the timid steps of incremental realism are not realistic. Backcasting is. •       The Commons: Ostrom's Third Way: The political debate of the last hundred years has been between state control and free markets. Both have failed. Lent's alternative, via Nobel Prize-winning economist Elinor Ostrom: the commons. Not the state owning things. Not markets extracting profit. Humans self-organising together in the way they evolved to do — collaboratively, cooperatively, with attention to the common good. Ostrom showed, empirically, that commons governance works. The Evergreen Cooperatives in Cleveland, Cooperation Jackson in Mississippi: these are working prototypes of what Lent means. •       TINA Is the Most Disempowering Message Ever Produced: Margaret Thatcher's “there is no alternative” — shortened to TINA — is, for Lent, the central ideological achievement of neoliberalism. As long as everyone believes there is no alternative, people will just try to improve the situation that little bit and nothing will change fundamentally. Ecocivilization is Lent's counter-argument: there is an alternative. The first step is to believe it. Once you believe it, the second step is to figure out what the practical steps are to get there. The book is those practical steps. •       The Authoritarian Moment: Why People Vote for Strongmen: People drawn to authoritarian strongmen feel in their gut that the system is designed to screw them. They're right about that. They're wrong about the solution — the strongmen are offering greater inequality dressed as populism. Lent's prescription: what AOC, Bernie Sanders, Mamdani represent is the alternative — the courage to actually stand for human dignity. When things swing to one extreme, they tend to swing back. We could be surprised at the speed of change. It's already happening in local communities — islands of coherence in a sea of chaos — and it can happen at the mainstream level too. About the Guest Jeremy Lent is an author and speaker described by George Monbiot as “one of the greatest thinkers of our age.” He is the founder of the Deep Transformation Network and the nonprofit Liology Institute.

Yacht crew work across borders, contracts, flag states, management structures, and onboard procedures, but many do not fully understand what those details mean until something goes wrong.In this episode of Superyacht Laundry, host Cherise Reedman is joined by Lucy Goff and Jenny Harris from Ocean Legal for a practical conversation about yacht crew rights, marine law, employment contracts, NDAs, jurisdiction, reporting, evidence, and the realities of working at sea.This is not a fear-based conversation. It is a knowledge-based one.Lucy and Jenny explain why yacht crew need to understand their contracts before joining a vessel, what governing law and jurisdiction clauses can mean in real life, why union support such as Nautilus can matter, and why NDAs do not automatically silence crew after serious incidents.They also discuss one of the biggest myths in yachting: that working in “international waters” means there are no rules.For crew, captains, senior crew, yacht managers, recruiters, owners' representatives, and anyone involved in the superyacht industry, this conversation belongs in the wider discussion around safety, accountability, welfare, and professional standards.In this episode:  Yacht crew contracts and red flags   Governing law and jurisdiction   Nautilus, union support, and legal backup   NDAs and privacy limits   Onboard reporting versus criminal reporting   Evidence, timing, and documentation   Why crew should ask questions before there is a crisis   How Ocean Legal is making marine law more accessible  Guests Lucy Goff, Ocean Legal Jenny Harris, Ocean LegalHost Cherise Reedman, Superyacht LaundryLearn more about Ocean Legal: https://oceanlegal.co.uk/Prefer to read?

In Episode 105 of the Cybersecurity Readiness Podcast Series, Dr. Dave Chatterjee is joined by Andrei Robachevsky — Technical Director of the Internet Integrity Program at the Global Cyber Alliance, founding contributor to MANRS (Mutually Agreed Norms for Routing Security), former CTO of RIPE NCC, and former Senior Director of Technology Programs at the Internet Society — to examine a cybersecurity risk that almost no enterprise security team is governing: the internet routing layer.Opening with the June 2024 Cloudflare 1.1.1.1 BGP hijack incident — where two Brazilian network operators' routing mistakes propagated to over 300 networks across 70 countries, silently rerouting traffic for several hours without triggering a single enterprise security alert — Dr. Chatterjee frames the episode's central challenge: organizations with excellent perimeter controls, clean firewalls, and healthy identity systems can still have their user traffic redirected to unintended destinations by failures occurring on networks they have never heard of, in countries they have no operations in, governed by routing norms they have never been asked to consider.Drawing on the February 2026 MANRS Report, Robachevsky explains that the Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) — the foundational routing system across nearly 80,000 autonomous networks — has no built-in authentication. Routing incidents occur 200 to 300 times per month, most of which are invisible to enterprise security teams, manifesting as unexplained outages or performance degradation rather than as identifiable threats. The implications range from SLA breaches and erosion of customer trust to man-in-the-middle exposure of silently rerouted traffic.Analyzed through Dr. Chatterjee's Commitment–Preparedness–Discipline (CPD) framework, the conversation delivers a clear and actionable message: routing security is not a network engineering problem — it is a supply chain governance problem. The tools already exist. RPKI exists. MANRS exists. MANRS+ is nearly here. The gap is entirely on the governance side, and it is closeable. The organizations that will not find themselves in the next routing incident are the ones that start with a map of their connectivity supply chain and a single question to every provider: Are you MANRS+ certified?To access and download the entire podcast summary with discussion highlights - https://www.dchatte.com/episode-105-the-invisible-layer-governing-routing-security-as-a-supply-chain-risk/Connect with Host Dr. Dave ChatterjeeLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/dchatte/ Website: https://dchatte.com/Books PublishedThe DeepFake ConspiracyCybersecurity Readiness: A Holistic and High-Performance ApproachArticles & Cases PublishedChatterjee, D.

What's a recession indicator you've noticed?Lately, one answer keeps resurfacing online: "You can see celebrities' ribs again." And as unserious as that sounds at first, history suggests it may not be entirely wrong.In this episode, I dive into Ozempic, recession aesthetics, quiet luxury, heroin chic, and the return of thinness as a cultural ideal. From celebrity weight loss trends to the politics of appetite, I explore how beauty standards shift during periods of economic anxiety, social instability, and cultural fear- and why women's bodies so often become the place where those anxieties are projected.Are.

Clean energy funding under the GGRF remains frozen, with projects on hold and questions over federal spending authority unresolved. --- The $27 billion Greenhouse Gas Reduction Fund has become a focal point of the Trump administration’s efforts to roll back federal clean energy policy. The program was designed to finance clean energy and emissions-reducing projects by channeling public funds through nonprofit financial institutions to attract private investment, including investments that support community resilience. After taking office in 2025, the administration moved to freeze funding and sought to terminate grant agreements that had already been awarded, citing concerns about oversight, conflicts of interest, and program design. Supporters argue the funds were lawfully appropriated and that the administration is attempting to unwind commitments based on claims that have not been substantiated in court. Roughly $20 billion of that funding now remains in limbo, with projects on hold. Senator Sheldon Whitehouse of Rhode Island, ranking member of the Senate Environment and Public Works Committee, discusses how the program was designed to work, the administration’s stated rationale for shutting it down, and what the dispute could mean for clean energy investment and congressional authority over federal spending.

In this episode, Annika Brockschmidt sits down with Adrian Daub, Professor at Stanford University and author of the upcoming book What Tech Calls Governing. Daub provides a searing intellectual history of the vibe shift in Silicon Valley, dismantling the myth that the tech world has undergone a broad political transformation. Instead, Daub argues that we are witnessing the radicalization of a billionaire elite, a small class of men like Marc Andreessen, Elon Musk, and Peter Thiel, who have moved rightward not because of shifting data, but out of a reactionary backlash to post pandemic social pressures and the accountability of the MeToo and BLM movements. By examining the ideological bridge from 1960s counterculture to modern cyberculture, Daub reveals how the hippie to tech pipeline created a foundation for a brand of power that refuses to recognize itself as power, leading to a strange paradox where the world's most influential men consistently frame themselves as persecuted outsiders. The conversation dives deep into the specific ideologies driving today's tech giants, from René Girard's mimetic theory to the biohacking and eugenics adjacent subcultures of the ultra wealthy. Daub offers a brilliant critique of the current AI hype cycle, arguing that framing Artificial Intelligence as an unstoppable force of nature is a deliberate political maneuver designed to bypass regulation and democratic oversight. Beyond the policy, they discuss the revealing and often bizarre aesthetics of the tech elite, such as the AI generated gladiator imagery favored by aging billionaires, which Daub links to a historical fascist obsession with the idealized male form and ego. Looking forward, the duo explores the Palantir problem and the structural flaws in Silicon Valley's current political bets, while offering a preview of Daub's next project, Project 1933: Fascism Then and Now, which contextualizes our current moment within the darker chapters of 20th century history.

From the alleged attempted assassination of President Donald Trump at the White House Correspondents' Dinner to the indictment of former FBI Director James Comey (and everything in between), it's been a long week in the United States. But one thing is for certain. Trump is one of the most powerful people on Earth. And yet, he spends so much of his time focused on trivial issues. Take that $400 million ballroom for example. A ballroom which most Americans oppose building by a 2-to-1 margin, according to new polling by the Washington Post and ABC News. So how does he get his base to buy in? How did we get to this place where his whims direct the news cycle? And how should Democrats respond – and get their own messages in front of the American people? To find out, we spoke with Keith Edwards. He's a Democratic strategist, political commentator, and host of The Keith Edwards Show.And in headlines, raw milk is out and Fox News is in, the Department of Homeland Security is finally going to reopen, and Alina Habba takes on the ladies at The View.Show Notes: Check out The Keith Edwards Show Call Congress – 202-224-3121 Subscribe to the What A Day Newsletter – https://tinyurl.com/y4y2e9jy What A Day – YouTube – https://www.youtube.com/@whatadaypodcast Follow us on Instagram – https://www.instagram.com/crookedmedia/ For a transcript of this episode, please visit crooked.com/whataday
