Der Co-Leiter der KOF der ETH Zürich hat berechnet, was die Schweiz in die Waagschale werfen kann, wenn es um Zollverhandlungen geht. Die handelspolitische Macht ist eher klein. Welchen Preis zahlt also die Schweiz, wenn sie die US-Zölle, wie geplant, mit einem Abkommen senkt? Das Verhandlungsmandat des Bundesrates für ein Abkommen mit den USA ist in der politischen Diskussion. Die Aussenpolitische Kommission des Nationalrats hat grünes Licht gegeben, möchte aber mit einer Garantie verhindern, dass die Schweiz geradestehen müsste, falls die privaten Unternehmen ihre angekündigten 200 Milliarden Investitionen nicht leisten können. Ist dies eine wichtige Ergänzung? Wie realistisch ist es, dass solche Summen investiert werden können – und wie werden sie überhaupt berechnet? Der Co-Leiter der Konjunkturforschungsstelle KOF der ETH Zürich, Hans Gersbach, entwirft neue Modelle, um die handlungspolitischen Spielräume der Schweiz zu berechnen und die Folgen für die Schweiz, wenn ein Abkommen mit den USA zustande kommt. Welche Analysen sollten in die politische Diskussion einbezogen werden? Hans Gersbach ist zu Gast im Tagesgespräch bei Karoline Arn.

Vor genau einem Jahr verlor Olaf Scholz die Vertrauensfrage und Friedrich Merz wurde später Kanzler. Gordon Repinski zieht eine politische Bilanz. Was hat Merz aus der Opposition heraus damals am 16. Dezember 2024 angekündigt, was hat er als Regierungschef eingelöst und wo ist er hinter den eigenen Ansprüchen zurückgeblieben. Im Mittelpunkt stehen Außenpolitik, Wirtschaft und der Stil der schwarz-roten Koalition. Parallel richtet sich der Blick dorthin in Berlin, wo sich Bewegung in den Gesprächen über ein Ende des Krieges in der Ukraine zeigt. Erstmals seit 2022 erscheint ein Waffenstillstand zumindest vorstellbar. Hans von der Burchard berichtet von den Gesprächen im Kanzleramt und erklärt, welche Rolle Sicherheitsgarantien, territoriale Fragen und der Druck aus Washington spielen. Im 200-Sekunden-Interview spricht Marie Agnes Strack Zimmermann, FDP Verteidigungspolitikerin im Europäischen Parlament, über die Grenzen des aktuellen Prozesses. Sie warnt vor falschem Optimismus, kritisiert die amerikanische Verhandlungsführung und fordert klare Entscheidungen Europas, etwa beim Umgang mit eingefrorenen russischen Vermögen. Und: Bundestagspräsidentin Julia Klöckner feiert Geburtstag, den Spaziergang aus dem Sommer mit ihr gib es hier. Das Berlin Playbook als Podcast gibt es jeden Morgen ab 5 Uhr.

Marc speaks with Hans von Spakovsky about pressing legal and political issues. They discuss pending Supreme Court cases, including transgender athlete rulings and presidential authority over federal agencies, as well as Trump-era tariff refunds. Hans and Marc also dive into election integrity, focusing on Arizona's 218,000 voters lacking proof of citizenship and the potential use of e-Verify for voter registration. They close with discussion of New York City's controversial plan requiring landlords to offer properties to nonprofits before selling on the open market, warning of legal and economic implications.

Nederland.Nl: In de woonkamer van het huis van de familie Jansen hing een geur van versgebakken kerstkoekjes en de getrouwe geur van de kerstboom.En: In the living room of the Jansen family's house, there was a scent of freshly baked Christmas cookies and the familiar smell of the Christmas tree.Nl: Het klonk gezellig, maar de spanning was te snijden.En: It sounded cozy, but the tension was palpable.Nl: Bram zat op de bank in het midden van de kamer.En: Bram sat on the couch in the middle of the room.Nl: Hij keek om zich heen.En: He looked around.Nl: De muren hingen vol met oude

ijs tussen hen dat niemand durfde te breken.En: There was always a layer of ice between them that no one dared to break.Nl: Hans maakte, tussen twee happen door, een opmerking over Brams werk.En: Hans, between two bites, made a comment about Bram's work.Nl: “En hoe gaat het nou met jou, Bram?En: “And how is it going with you, Bram?Nl: Nog steeds niks gevonden, neem ik aan?” De opmerking leek onschuldig, maar voor Bram was het als een dolk.En: Still haven't found anything, I assume?” The remark seemed innocent, but to Bram, it was like a dagger.Nl: Zijn woede borrelde op, maar hij slikte het weg en keek richting Tess.En: His anger bubbled up, but he swallowed it and looked towards Tess.Nl: Toch kon hij het niet onderdrukken.En: Yet, he couldn't suppress it.Nl: “Altijd diezelfde vraag, hè pap?” Bram's stem trilde een beetje.En: “Always that same question, huh, dad?” Bram's voice trembled slightly.Nl: “Bestaat er iets waarvan jij blij wordt, of is het altijd kritiek?” Ingrid schoof

Christmas.Nl: Laten we het gezellig houden.” Maar de vulkaan was al uitgebarsten.En: Let's keep it pleasant.” But the volcano had already erupted.Nl: Hans rechtte zijn rug.En: Hans straightened his back.Nl: “Als je gewoon je best had gedaan, hoefde dit gesprek niet steeds terug te komen.” “Je geeft me nooit een kans!” riep Bram.En: “If you had just done your best, this conversation wouldn't always have to come up.” “You never give me a chance!” Bram shouted.Nl: “Je kijkt altijd alleen naar wat ik niet goed doe!” De kamer vulde zich met een pijnlijke stilte.En: “You always look only at

Schunke, Antje www.deutschlandfunkkultur.de, Fazit

Hans and Brian challenge the conventional wisdom around qualified retirement plans and expose the misaligned incentives baked into the 401(k) system.Most people defend their 401(k)s and IRAs with passion—but they're carrying water for institutions whose goals directly conflict with their own. This episode breaks down the four things financial institutions want from your money, reveals the history of how employers shifted pension risk onto employees, and asks the critical question: whose incentives are you serving?The conventional model says lock your money away for 40 years, fund your own retirement, bear all the market risk, and hope you have enough at 65. The qualified plan gives you a 13-year window of control—you can't touch it penalty-free until 59.5, and RMDs force withdrawals starting at 73. That means if you live to 76, you only controlled your money 25% of your life. Meanwhile, the average person retiring today has $537,000 saved but needs $1.5 million. The system is failing, yet people aggressively defend it.Chapters:00:00 - Opening segment 03:40 - Revisiting fundamentals 04:25 - What do financial institutions want from you? 05:25 - The four goals: get your money, hold it systematically, keep it long, give back little 06:40 - We just described a qualified plan 07:50 - The 13-year window: locked until 59.5, forced RMDs at 73 08:45 - Tax benefits: the one real advantage of a Roth 10:00 - Why we're assuming Roth for this discussion 11:30 - The gray area in Roth tax code and the $42 trillion sitting in qualified plans 12:35 - Only controlling your money 25% of your life 13:20 - Teaching kids to be good stewards vs. locking their money away 14:30 - RMD penalties: 25% minimum, up to 50% in some scenarios 16:00 - TSP RMD mechanics: you can't choose which funds to liquidate 17:00 - Taking the employer match and using whole life as a volatility buffer 18:20 - Spending down qualified plans first, not leaving them to heirs 18:50 - The pension system: employers provided capital and bore market risk 21:20 - The shift: now employees fund their own retirement and bear all risk 23:10 - Stockholm Syndrome: aggressively defending the institutions that benefit 24:00 - Median household income $84K, needs $1.5M, average savings $537K 27:40 - Why the average is skewed by millionaires (statistical reality check) 29:25 - Comparing contractual guarantees to projections and prospectuses 31:00 - Strip away the labels: whole life is just an asset, just like mutual funds 32:20 - We want you to understand WHY you believe what you believe 33:35 - The rate of return objection and Nelson's tailwind example 36:15 - Whose incentives align with yours?

[School of Movies 2025] This is another revisit to one of the first films we ever covered, way back on Digital Gonzo at Christmas in 2010. The quintessential Holiday movie for those who want violence and swearing with their jingle bells. But if you go back and watch all five films (the final low-point didn't even exist when we covered this before) you will find some exceptional strengths in this one alone that all relate to precisely how it was constructed. A creative team that didn't realise they were all at the top of their game, impeccable cinematography, editing, pacing, a red hot screenplay that fleshed out a rich supporting cast, a nervy, brooding score that builds and crescendos along with the perfect pacing, and two actors in the antagonistic lead roles of John and Hans who were hungry to prove themselves and turned in the most memorable big-screen performances on their first try. But also, it had something the others lack, as did almost all other action thrillers of the era; The story is about a broken argument, and it weighs on estranged husband and wife for the duration. Also, in deciding that the villains be robbers rather than terrorists, director John McTiernan sealed the deal on this story being something it otherwise couldn't; colossal fun! Guest: Matt Ramsey Those early Digital Gonzo shows can be found on the School of Movies Archive podcast feed. They are rough as hell, amateur hour on my part and this one doesn't even break the sixty minute mark. The best bits are featured at the end, same as with Back to the Future. Many thanks to my vintage guests, Matt Ramsey, Nikki Taylor of GameBurst and Mike Philips of the Fanboys Lunchcast.

What if a stranger inviting you to build a boat halfway around the world led to meeting your wife, building a family, and discovering your life's work? In this episode, John Caprani, video advertising specialist for home service businesses, shares his unconventional journey from Ireland to West Africa to Fiji and finally to Spain. After meeting a Swiss sailor named Hans in 2011, John packed everything for a one-way ticket to Senegal to build a 72-foot wooden sailboat. That adventure led to a job in Fiji doing construction project management, where he met his wife within six weeks, married her six months later, and became a father 10 months after that. Six years later, with two kids under three and a deep dissatisfaction with his corporate job, John made the leap into entrepreneurship at age 37. Now specializing in video advertising for home service businesses generating $1M to $5M annually, he's helped clients book $800K in 30 days and $95K in 40 days using a simple approach that most marketers overlook: putting the founder on camera and building trust through personality instead of just showcasing work. John reveals why trust matters more than perfect craftsmanship when entering someone's home, why employees can never sell as effectively as founders on video, and how narrowing his focus to home services transformed his results.   [00:02:20] The Technology That Makes the World Smaller John is in Valencia, Spain (nine hours ahead of Seattle) Zoom and modern technology make global conversations seamless Kevin used to commercial fish in Alaska before technology like this existed The ability to work from anywhere is now a reality [00:04:00] What John Does: Video Advertising for Home Service Businesses Spent years as a copywriter but found it hard to sell to uneducated buyers Shifted 18 months ago to focus specifically on home service businesses Serves businesses doing upgrades: walls, paving, air conditioning, barns, storage units, renovations, landscaping Specializes in video advertising on Facebook and Instagram only Works with businesses selling high-ticket services for the home [00:06:33] Why Home Services Is Different: Trust Over Technique Local business marketing is not as sophisticated as e-commerce or online coaching Most local businesses aren't doing video marketing at all Those who do focus on work being done (pictures of installations) which doesn't solve the real problem John's approach: focus on personality and the business owner themselves [00:08:38] Kevin's Parallel Journey: Carpet Cleaning in 1995 Started carpet cleaning and restoration business in 1995 Blew through $300K in first year following traditional industry approach Advertised "two rooms and a hallway for $59.95" (then dropped to $49.95) Key lesson: trust is huge when you're in people's homes while they're at work [00:13:04] John's Background: From Father's Business to Sailing Father was entrepreneur in publishing, graphic arts, and printing Tried entrepreneurial things as teenager but they didn't work out Spent twenties traveling, went to UK, learned woodworking skills Learned artisan craft skills, made lovely things, lived hand to mouth existence Everything changed when he got married, needed more stability [00:14:20] The Construction Years: Getting Promoted Out of Success Friend offered job in construction industry doing project management for holiday resort renovations Was good at project management, actually being on site Got promoted out of job he was good at into job he sucked at: marketing and sales Had to learn copywriting and marketing to sell to traveling business clients [00:15:40] The Big Decision: Quit at 37 with Two Kids Under Three In 2018, didn't want to stay in construction, wanted freedom Knew online meant he could travel, move countries, income unaffected Was 37, married, two kids under age three Had enough money to live for maybe three or four months Quit job in September 2018, got first couple of clients, took it from there [00:20:16] The Jockey and the Horse John likens his role to being a jockey "The horse you ride on is most of the race won" Not magic on his part, certain factors need to be in place When it works, it really works [00:22:00] The Sweet Spot: Five to Fifteen Person Teams Prefers smaller businesses: 5-15 people team Direct relationship with founder No layers of bureaucracy Say "Can you help me?" John says "Yes," they say "Okay, let 'er rip" Bigger businesses (20-30+ people) have marketing team in-house, bureaucracy, people covering their own ass [00:23:08] The Non-Negotiable: A Good Assistant on the Phone John needs business owner to have assistant who is good on the phone When leads come in, owner should NOT be doing screening or appointment setting Owners are often best salesperson but definitely not best appointment setter They start to hate it because it's beneath them, then they hate John [00:27:00] The One-Way Ticket to Senegal Hans said: "I'm not gonna buy your ticket there, but I'll pay for everything after. I want to see that you get there on your own steam" "Show up at Dakar Airport in Senegal on such and such day, I'll be there to pick you up" John packed up, sold his vehicle, got one-way ticket to Dakar Worked together for 10-11 months building the boat, launched it, did sailing together [00:27:47] The German Guy in Fiji Hans was going to sail elsewhere, John didn't want to go back to Ireland Asked Hans: "Do you know anybody else who might have something interesting?" Hans: "I know this German guy in Fiji doing work on holiday resorts" German guy called a few days later: "I need a man. Can you be here in two weeks?" John: "Would you buy me a ticket?" German: "I'll send you a ticket today" Packed up from London, jumped on plane to Fiji [00:29:40] From Project Management to Sales to Entrepreneurship Started doing dusty construction project management on site in Fiji Got better at job, got promoted to sales Had to learn about selling Led to 2018 decision: "I have these sales skills, I know copywriting, I want out of construction, let's quit and go do my own thing" [00:30:06] The Big Leap: Married, Kids, No Steady Paycheck Pretty big step going from steady paycheck to own thing Mentally tough, but felt like it was now or never at 37 with two kids under three "Gun to the head moment, and gun to the head is a great motivator" Family helped: gave them place to stay while getting on feet in Ireland Wife was rock solid: "I don't understand why you're doing this, but if you want to do it, I'll support you" [00:32:20] The Turning Point: Everything's Actually Okay About 18 months after quitting, I was constantly worried: "Is this gonna fail?" Looked at himself: "Everything's okay. We've still got a place to live. Kids still have shoes. We have food. Nobody's going hungry" "This might not be working perfectly, but it's working. I've covered the basics. We're surviving and I can grow from here" [00:33:20] Five Years Later: Life in Valencia, Spain In 2024, decided time to move on from Ireland Glad to spend those years there, reconnect with family Wanted kids to know his family, wanted wife to become Irish citizen Sold up everything, packed into two cars, road tripped from Ireland to Spain Life has become so much better since moving to Spain [00:36:00] The Integration Life: No Rules About When You Work Don't have work-life balance with entrepreneurship Do get work-life integration if you're smart about it Bring everything in, don't live by rules about finishing work at certain time or can't do anything on weekends Do what you can when you can, find time to get everything in [00:39:38] Where to Find John Website: firedigitalmarketing.com (short video explaining what he does and how it helps) Facebook: John Caprani (most active there) Can get sense of who he is, his opinions and thoughts before reaching out Best place to connect [00:42:40] Repetition Over Perfection First time around won't be perfect, won't be what you feel is perfect in your mind Kevin's coach had him make 24-25 videos in one day walking through a process Every time got more comfortable, didn't have to think about what to say, got the flow [00:44:06] What Really Works: Belief and Confidence All the fancy copywriting, hacks, tactics are good, valuable, useful But what really works better than anything else: somebody who believes in what they do and has some confidence in themselves That'll convert better than anything   KEY QUOTES "If you are an eight out of 10 at your work, but you're like 10 out of 10 in terms of a human being and being trustworthy, people would care about that more than being a 10 out of 10 in the work and maybe being a five out of 10 in the character side of things." - John Caprani "Gun to the head is a great motivator. It'll get you to do shit you wouldn't normally do." - John Caprani "You don't get work-life balance [as an entrepreneur], but you do get work-life integration if you're smart about it." - John Caprani "There's nobody but the founder of a business who really has the conviction and has enough on the line to actually sell it as effectively on video." - John Caprani "All the different fancy copywriting and hacks and tactics, in the end, what really works better than anything else is somebody who believes in what they do and has some confidence in themselves. That'll convert better than anything." - John Caprani CONNECT WITH JOHN CAPRANI 

Imagine going on a hunting trip with your sibling or best friend, only to happen upon the body of an infant. It's a frightening prospect, but that's exactly what happened to brothers Hans and Jokum Grønvold of Ummannaq, Greenland in 1972. They immediately contacted local authorities, mistaking the child as the victim of a murder. But further analysis revealed something far different--and far older--than anyone could have imagined. Join me this week for a look at the mummies of Greenland.

Donald Trump's kleptocracy didn't happen overnight–it was part of the Kremlin's long game. With reports of Russia trying to explode planes headed to the US, we're running out of time to wake up before it's too late. In this week's bonus show for Gaslit Nation's Patreon supporters, who keep our independent journalism going in these dark times of institutional rot, media capitulation, and complacency, Andrea warns that we're nearing the point of no return. Putin can now say the U.S. and Russia are aligned, because they are. Trump's regime is declaring a return to the Monroe Doctrine, claiming the Western Hemisphere belongs to the U.S. That's exactly what Putin does in Eastern Europe. The Pentagon is handing Trump's gestapo-like immigration agenda $2 billion on top of $75 billion for ICE in Trump's Big Ugly Bill. Like Putin, Trump is building a gulag and gearing up for conflict with our neighbors, including Mexico, Venezuela, and whoever else he wants to casually kill. As we've long warned, Trump wants to become the Putin of North America, because that's his plan for staying in power indefinitely: enrich his family, build a dynastic oligarchy, and protect it with sadistic security services. To help us fight back and stay grounded in the gaslighting, this special bonus show includes a discussion of Gaslit Nation's Book Club: Total Resistance by Hans von Dach–a civilian guerrilla resistance guide produced by a Swiss military theorist in preparation for Soviet occupation during the Cold War–and Deaf Republic, a play-like book of poems by Ukrainian-born poet Ilya Kaminsky.  "At the trial of God, we will ask: why did you allow all this?," Kaminsky writes, "And the answer will be an echo: why did you allow all this?" We have to stop the worst from happening and wake people up before it's too late. For ways to fight back, check out, and share, the Gaslit Nation Action Guide on GaslitNationPod.com. The full discussion of this month's book club will be published on Patreon Monday morning, along with the Zoom link for the Gaslit Nation Salon at 4pm ET later that day. To get access to that, join our community on Patreon at Patreon.com/Gaslit and get invites to exclusive events, bonus shows, all episodes ad free, and more. Sign up at Patreon.com/Gaslit – discounted annual memberships are available and you can give the gift of member. Thank you to everyone who supports the show – we could not make Gaslit Nation without you.  Show Notes: Today in Washington, DC! Celebrate voices of resistance with COURIER.

Journey to the Center of the Earth by Jules Verne单词提示1.skeletons 骨架2.mammoths 猛犸3.waist 腰4.prehistoric 史前的原文Chapter 8: A Lost WorldWe were on the north side of the sea again, but not on the same beach as before.For this reason, we began to look around to see what we could find.The professor didn't want us to stay there for long.He wanted to sail on the sea again."Professor,it's too dangerous! You saw what happened.""I don't care, Axel. I did not come all this way to turn back now. We've got to see what's on the other side of that sea."This beach was longer than the other one.Its rocks had more holes in them, and I thought this was because of earthquakes.There were many more bones and old shells on this beach."Look at all of this, Axel! We can read the whole history of the world from these bones."There were skeletons of animals that are not living today.It was very exciting to see them out in the open and not in a museum."Axel,look! A human head!"There,with all the other bones, was the head of a man.How did it get here?Did it fall down one of those holes like we did?Was that going to happen to us?The professor was excited."If other scientists could see me now! This could be the oldest skeleton ever found!"We walked further down and the beach changed.Now,there were large trees and small plants around us.The further we went, the more life we found.Suddenly,I saw something move behind the trees.My uncle and I hid.It was a family of mammoths from thousands of years ago."Axel,can you believe it? There is another world under our earth!""But are there also people here?""Yes,look!"I couldn't believe it.Walking behind the mammoths was a giant man.He was over twelve feet tall with long hair and a beard.He had a piece of animal skin around his waist."Should we try to talk to him?""No,he looks dangerous. Hans is not with us, and we don't have our guns. Let's go back to the boat."We ran away quietly, so the prehistoric man did not see us.When we stopped running, we were back at the beach.I saw an old knife on a rock."Let's clean this and keep it. It could be useful.""Axel,don't you understand what this is?""Yes,it's a knife.""But it's made of metal. It is only two or three hundred years old.""Do you mean...""Yes, Arne Saknussemm!"The professor saw a cave nearby. He ran to it."Axel,it's him!"On the rock, next to the entrance of this cave, there were two letters in old Icelandic: A.S.The professor looked very excited."This must be the entrance we are looking for."翻译第八章：失落的世界我们又来到了大海的北边，但不是以前的那个海滩。出于这个原因，我们开始四处寻找，看看能找到什么。教授不想让我们在那里呆太久。他想再次出海航行。“教授，这太危险了！你看到发生了什么。”“我不在乎，阿克塞尔。我走了这么远的路，现在不是为了回头。我们得去看看海的另一边是什么。”这个海滩比另一个长。它的岩石上有更多的洞，我认为这是因为地震。海滩上还有更多的骨头和旧贝壳。“看看这一切，阿克塞尔！我们可以从这些骨头中读出整个世界的历史。”那里有现在已经灭绝的动物的骨骼。能在公开场合看到它们而不是在博物馆里，真是太令人兴奋了。“阿克塞尔,看!一个人头！”在那里，和所有其他的骨头一起，是一个人的头。它是怎么来的？是不是像我们一样掉到洞里了？这种事会发生在我们身上吗？教授很兴奋。“要是其他科学家现在能看到我就好了！这可能是迄今为止发现的最古老的骨架！”我们继续往下走，海滩变了样。现在，我们周围有大树和小植物。我们走得越远，发现的生命就越多。突然，我看到树后有东西在动。我和叔叔躲了起来。这是一个数千年前的猛犸象家族。“阿克塞尔，你能相信吗？在我们的地球下面还有另一个世界！”“但是这里也有人吗？”“是的,你看!”我简直不敢相信。猛犸象后面走着一个巨人。他身高超过十二英尺，头发很长，留着胡子。他腰上围着一块兽皮。“我们应该试着和他谈谈吗？”“不，他看起来很危险。汉斯没跟我们在一起，我们也没带枪。我们回到船上去吧。”我们悄悄地跑开了，所以那个史前人没有看到我们。当我们停止奔跑时，我们回到了海滩。我在岩石上看到一把旧刀。“让我们把它清理干净，保存起来。这可能很有用。”“阿克塞尔，你不明白这是什么吗？”“是的，是一把刀。”“但它是金属做的。它只有两、三百年的历史。”“你是说……”“是的，阿恩·萨克努塞姆 !”教授看到附近有一个山洞。他跑过去。“阿克塞尔，是他！”在洞口旁边的岩石上，用古冰岛语写着两个字母：A.S.教授看起来很兴奋。“这一定是我们要找的入口。”

Family life does not stop, especially at this time of year. The Supreme Court of the United States has also been busy. Over the last week or so, the court has taken up or listened to arguments in three potentially landmark cases. All three have to do with the Trump administration's goals for the executive branch. Heritage Senior Legal Fellow, and frequent guest on this our show, Hans von Spakovsky was kind enough to take a break from his own busy holiday season, to stop by and break down these three cases for us.

I det här avsnittet ska jag läsa en saga för er! Det är den klassiska sagan om Hans och Greta, av bröderna Grimm. Du har säkert hört den förut, så det blir nog inte för svårt att följa med i handlingen. Men även om du inte har hört den förut - oroa dig inte, jag läser långsamt och tydligt, och har förenklat texten litegrann. Transkript Hej där, välkommen till Simples Swedish Podcast. Idag ska jag faktiskt läsa en saga för dig. En saga, ja, det är en berättelse, en berättelse som man oftast läser för barn. Men det kan såklart vara trevligt att lyssna på en saga också som vuxen. Och den här sagan heter Hans och Greta. Och den skrevs av bröderna Grimm. Bröderna Grimm, ja. Så det är en gammal saga. En klassisk saga kan man säga. Så först av allt ska jag såklart tacka några patrons. Det är Eva, Conny, Himbeersommer, Effervescent, Eva, Svitlana, Nicole, Nour, Hungarian by Heart och Bartosz. Tusen tack till er för att ni stödjer den här podden. Okej, så nånting som är viktigt är att inte försöka förstå varje ord. Utan lyssna på helheten. Fokusera på det du förstår. Och försök bara följa med i handlingen. Alltså att följa med i det som händer. Jag ska förklara några ord först men sen när du lyssnar, prova att bara lyssna och försöka följa med i berättelsen. Så första ordet jag ska förklara är ordet ved. Och ved, det är trä som man eldar med. Så man till exempel går ut i skogen, hugger ner ett träd och sen så kan man göra ved av det trädet. Ved för att elda med. Och när man lägger ved och tänder en eld, då kallar man det för en brasa. Så du kan samla lite ved och tända en brasa. En eld alltså. Och man kan då sitta runt den här brasan, värma sig och ha det mysigt. En brasa. Sen har vi en smula. Och en smula är en liten, liten, liten bit av bröd eller en kaka eller liknande. Alltså, man kan till exempel smula sönder bröd. Alltså, man smular det till små, små, små bitar. Och de små, små bitarna kallar vi för smulor. Och vi har en styvmamma. En styvmamma är till exempel om jag har barn och jag gifter mig med en ny kvinna. Och den kvinnan blir som en ny mamma för barnen. Då kallar vi det för en styvmamma. Så det var några ord som kan vara bra att veta innan. Så ved, en brasa, en smula, att tända en brasa och en styvmamma. Okej, är du redo att lyssna på sagan om Hans och Greta? Okej, då börjar jag. Sagan om Hans och Greta I utkanten av en stor skog bodde en gång en fattig vedhuggare med sin fru och sina två barn. Barnen hette Hans och Greta. Pappans jobb gav inte så mycket betalt och det här året var det extra svårt. De hade inte ens råd med mat till hela familjen. En natt sa till sin fru: ”Vad skall det bli av oss? Hur skall vi kunna ge barnen mat, när vi inte ens har till oss själva.” ...för hela transkriptet - klicka här

Marc kicks off a frosty Monday talking weather, holiday lights, and weekend sports before shifting into politics and culture. From Indiana's Big Ten victory and Trump's media battles to Kim's deep dive on kids and smartphone addiction, the hour blends humor with serious commentary. Listener reactions roll in on parenting in the digital age, while Marc wraps by teasing Hans von Spakovsky's take on new legal and political stories, including the long-delayed charges against the J6 pipe bomber.

Marc speaks with Hans Von Spakovsky from the Heritage Foundation about Democratic claims that the president's actions against narco-terrorists constitute “murder,” highlighting historical context, international law, and prior presidential actions. They also discuss the War Powers Act, congressional authority, and the challenges of enforcing presidential limits. Hans weighs in on the James Comey investigation, the J6 pipe bomber case, and the unprecedented nature of recent executive orders, offering insight into government accountability and procedural gaps.

Marc opens with the busy holiday season in St. Charles, sharing personal shopping experiences and observations on inflation and affordability, then moves into political commentary on Trump, Biden, and recent executive actions. Hans von Spakowski provides insight on maritime law, presidential authority, and FBI oversights, while Steve Bannon's claims about election irregularities are discussed. Nicole Murray covers business and market updates, including interest rate expectations, company acquisitions, and holiday shopping trends. The hour closes with “In Other News,” featuring viral media moments, unusual animal incidents, and a humorous story about a preschooler's solo Chick-fil-A adventure.

Strategy isn't supposed to live in a slide deck. It should breathe in daily choices, team rituals, and the way people talk about their work. We sit down with Hans Lagerweij, author of The Why Whisperer, to unpack why 95 percent of employees can't state their company's strategy—and what leaders can do to fix it without adding more meetings or more slides.Hans introduces the Six C's of execution—clear communication, consistent reinforcement, cultural alignment, continuous improvement, collaborative engagement, and celebrating success—and shows how they turn plans into momentum. We dig into the reverse elevator pitch, a simple test that forces clarity: if you can't explain your strategy in 30 seconds, you aren't ready to roll it out. From there, we explore how to link the macro why (direction and purpose) to the micro why (the meaning behind each task and decision) so everyone can see their part in the bigger picture.We also tackle silos and misaligned incentives, revealing why functions often work at cross purposes and how shared objectives and cross-functional teams restore speed and trust. Hans shares practical ways to invite frontline ideas—idea boxes, listening forums, lightweight feedback loops—and how small, timely celebrations create pride and keep energy high. Instead of chasing buy-in, we make the case for shared ownership, where people help shape the how and feel responsible for results.If you're ready to turn strategy from an annual event into a daily habit, this conversation will give you the tools and language to start today. Subscribe, share this with a colleague who needs it, and leave a review to tell us which “C” you'll implement first.

Han började som prydlig tyckare i fluga, blev störst i sin del av tv-världen, men flög för högt. Nu är han politisk predikant med ifrågasatt sällskap. Lyssna på alla avsnitt i Sveriges Radios app. I början av 2020-talet var Tucker Carlson programledaren som lockade flest tittare på amerikansk kabel-tv.Hans talkshow ”Tucker Carlson tonight” på Fox News blev agendasättande för stora delar av det konservativa USA. Men i takt med att programmet växte i popularitet blev också åsikterna som Carlson dryftade i rutan allt mer kontroversiella. När samtalsämnen som tidigare inte ansetts som rumsrena i mainstream-tv fick mer och mer utrymme började annonsörerna lämna programmet. Men publiken stannade kvar, och växte.Med en årslön på 20 miljoner dollar, och en direktlinje till Donald Trump, var Tucker Carlson Fox News överlägset största profil. Sedan blev han av med jobbet.Det här är berättelsen om en tyckare som, enligt egen utsago, radikaliserats – och om hur en hel politisk rörelse har gått i parallella fotspår.Från sin uppväxt i privatskolor på den amerikanska östkusten, till omdiskuterade möten med Rysslands president Vladimir Putin, Irans president Masoud Pezeshkian, och den högerextremistiske influencern Nick Fuentes – Tucker Carlson har lärt sig att formulera och förpacka sin världssyn på ett slipat och medryckande sätt.Nu när han är chef över sin egen plattform, utan någon som kan säga åt honom vad han ska göra, uppstår det plötsligt sprickor i den tidigare så enade MAGA-rörelsen i USA.I programmet medverkar USA-poddens programledare Sara Stenholm, kommunikationskonsulten och USA-experten Andreas Utterström, den tidigare Fox News-juristen Christopher Silvestri, och den tidigare Fox News-producenten Maria Karlsson.Klippen i programmet är hämtade från Fox News, Tucker Carlson Network, X, CBS, MSNBC, CNN, Bloomberg News.

Japanska Shimon Sakaguchi gick från ifrågasatt teori till Nobelpris. Hans forskning förklarar varför immunförsvaret ibland vänder sig mot oss själva. Lyssna på alla avsnitt i Sveriges Radios app. Japanska forskaren Shimon Sakaguchi har ägnat ett halvt sekel åt att förstå varför vårt immunförsvar ibland angriper den egna kroppen. Hans envishet ledde från en idé, som inte många trodde på till ett genombrott som förändrat medicinsk forskning. Sakaguchi visade att en särskild typ av T-celler, regulatoriska T-celler, spelar en avgörande roll för att hålla immunförsvaret i schack. Upptäckten har öppnat vägen för nya behandlingar mot autoimmuna sjukdomar som typ 1-diabetes och ledgångsreumatism, och kan bli viktig i kampen mot cancer och vid organtransplantationer. Men vägen dit var långt ifrån enkel – hans tidiga resultat avfärdades som ”smutsig vetenskap” och stora tidskrifter vägrade publicera dem. I dag är forskningen kring T-reg-celler ett av immunologins hetaste områden med tusentals artiklar varje år. I Osaka berättar Sakaguchi om ögonblicket då han insåg att han hade rätt, om uthållighetens betydelse och om hur Nobelpriset ger nya möjligheter att fortsätta arbetet med att förstå kroppens mest komplexa försvarssystem.Reporter: Björn Gunérbjorn.guner@sr.seProducent: Lars Broströmlars.brostrom@sr.se

Hans and Brian break down the four-stage framework for infinite banking mastery, drawn from Factum Financial's work observing how practitioners actually use their policies over time.Most people who buy a whole life policy think they're "doing infinite banking." They're not. They're at Stage One—and most never make it past Stage Three. This episode walks through the progression from Saver to Wealth Builder to Business Banker to Infinite Banker, and explains why defining success is the only way to stop chasing "more" forever.The conventional approach to money says sacrifice now, maybe live on rice and beans, and hope for abundance at 65. The infinite banking model allows you to live in abundance now while building exponentially greater wealth for future generations—but only if you understand what stage you're in and where you're actually going.Chapters: 00:00 - Opening segment03:40 - Why most life insurance is just a drawer document04:50 - Stage One: The Saver (financial education, awareness, saving strategy)06:30 - Why getting the policy doesn't make you proficient08:00 - Stage Two: The Wealth Builder (adding debt strategy and investing strategy)11:15 - Understanding policy loan mechanics and efficient cash flow capture12:00 - Multiple uses of your dollar: saving and debt repayment simultaneously12:35 - Stage Three: The Business Banker (comprehensive integration)14:00 - Raising deductibles and optimizing cash flow across all insurance16:05 - Asset protection and trust structures17:35 - The synergistic effect when investing strategies tie back into the system18:00 - Stage Four: The Infinite Banker (maximum control and financial freedom)18:25 - Jason Lowe's family with 77 policies financing nothing through banks20:05 - The five areas of life: spiritual, personal, family, financial, occupation22:35 - Hans's financial goals: zero budget on health/longevity and slow travel24:30 - Why you need to get comfortable with material goals26:00 - Finance as the area that spreads across everything else27:35 - Even a simple quiet life requires getting financial loose ends tied up29:10 - Leaving disorder vs leaving a legacy31:30 - Identifying which stage you're in and continuously optimizing32:25 - Recap of the four stages32:35 - Contrasting with the conventional "no control" financial planning model34:40 - Closing thoughts Key Takeaways:Stage One - The Saver: Getting the policy in place with financial education, awareness, and a saving strategy. Understanding why you have a term rider, what your MEC limit is, and the basic structure. Many clients can't fully explain these elements a year after purchase—that's normal, but it means you're still at Stage One.Stage Two - The Wealth Builder: Adding debt strategy and investing strategy on top of the whole life chassis. Using policy loans efficiently, understanding being your own banker, and making your dollars work in multiple places simultaneously. Most Remnant Finance clients are here.Stage Three - The Business Banker: Treating family cash flow like a business. Comprehensive integration of cash flow management, optimized insurance strategies (raising deductibles to maximize inflows), asset protection, and trust structures. The synergistic effect where investments flow back into the entire system.Stage Four - The Infinite Banker: True financial freedom with maximum control over your entire financial life. Multi-generational legacy where the next generation understands and participates.
