Podcasts about Harvard Law School

In dieser Folge spricht Duri Bonin, Strafverteidiger in Zürich, mit Lea Hungerbühler – Richterin, Anwältin, Präsidentin von AsyLex, Harvard-Absolventin und aktuell Dissertierende. Ausgehend von einer leeren Bar entfaltet sich ein offenes Gespräch über juristische Biografien, politische Verantwortung und gesellschaftliches Engagement. Lea erzählt, wie sie bereits während ihres Substituts zur nebenamtlichen Richterin in Basel-Landschaft gewählt wurde. Sie spricht über ihre ersten Erfahrungen mit 24 Jahren auf der Richterbank, über Zweifel, Unterstützung – und über das Gefühl, plötzlich Recht zu sprechen. Gleichzeitig war für sie immer klar, dass sie auch Anwältin sein wollte. Der Einstieg erfolgte über ein Praktikum bei Lenz & Staehelin, später arbeitete sie beim Staatssekretariat für internationale Finanzfragen und in einer internationalen Wirtschaftskanzlei. Dazwischen absolvierte sie einen LL.M. an der Harvard Law School, der sich als inhaltlich wie persönlich prägend erwies. Und dann: ein Erlebnis in Australien – eine bewusstlose Frau am Strand, Hilflosigkeit, ein Moment der Infragestellung. Die Folge: Kündigung, ein Aufenthalt im Flüchtlingslager auf Samos, und die Erkenntnis, dass man am meisten bewirken kann, wo man das Recht kennt. So entstand AsyLex – ein Verein für unentgeltliche Rechtsvertretung im Asylbereich, der inzwischen schweizweit tätig ist. Lea spricht offen über die strukturellen Missstände im Asylsystem: fehlende legale Fluchtwege, extrem kurze Fristen, fragwürdige Übersetzungen, fehlender Zugang zum Recht. Sie benennt, was es bräuchte – und zeigt, dass Recht nicht nur ein System ist, sondern eine Haltung. Ein Gespräch über Verantwortung, Überzeugung und den Willen, mit dem eigenen Wissen etwas zu bewirken. Lea Hungerbühler zeigt, dass juristisches Engagement nicht bei der Theorie aufhört – und dass man vieles zugleich sein kann. Für alle, die wissen wollen, wie juristische Praxis und gesellschaftliches Engagement zusammengehen – und was Recht bewirken kann, wenn man es ernst nimmt.

What if the things we sideline in the pursuit of success—care, connection, and personal struggles—are what could actually lead us to clarity and purpose? In a culture that celebrates achievement and autonomy, have we overlooked the connective tissue that quietly holds our lives and systems together? Could personal transformation also be the key to transforming how we lead, live, and rebuild the world around us?Find out from Anne-Marie Slaughter, exclusively in conversation with Dr. Hitendra Wadhwa on Intersections Podcast.Anne-Marie Slaughter is a global leader, educator, foreign policy expert, public intellectual and the CEO of New America, a “think and action tank” dedicated to realizing the promise of America in an era of rapid technological and social change.

She has been a professor at University of Chicago Law School, Harvard Law School and Princeton University, and has written and lectured widely on very relevant topics, including global network design and leadership, gender equality and elevating the value of care for both men and women, and on American renewal.

Alan Rozenshtein, Senior Editor at Lawfare and Associate Professor of Law at the University of Minnesota, speaks with Noah Feldman, the Felix Frankfurter Professor of Law at Harvard Law School, about the Supreme Court's recent decision to greatly limit the practice of universal injunctions. The ruling came in a case involving a Trump administration executive order on birthright citizenship, and while many commentators have viewed the decision as a dangerous loss for the rule of law, Noah argues that the Court might be playing a strategic "long game."Alan and Noah discuss Noah's central thesis: that the Supreme Court's primary job in the Trump era is to protect the rule of law by avoiding a direct constitutional crisis with the executive branch that the judiciary is likely to lose. From this perspective, eliminating universal injunctions—a tool that allows a single district judge to start a major fight—is a way for the Court to control when and where it confronts the administration. They also address the legal merits of Justice Barrett's majority opinion, which Noah argues was a flawed use of originalism that misinterpreted the flexible, problem-solving nature of equity. Finally, they explore the legal avenues for relief that remain, such as class actions, and consider what it means for the judiciary to truly "win" or "lose" a confrontation with a president who is undeterred by political norms.Note that this discussion was recorded in early July, before a lower court certified a class action in the birthright citizenship litigation and before the Supreme Court's recent unsigned opinion allowing the Trump administration to begin mass firings at the Department of Education, which Noah has since criticized.Mentioned in this episode:"The Supreme Court's Majority Is Playing the Long Game,” by Noah Feldman in Bloomberg Opinion"The Supreme Court's Silent Opinions Undermine Its Legitimacy,” by Noah Feldman in Bloomberg OpinionTo receive ad-free podcasts, become a Lawfare Material Supporter at www.patreon.com/lawfare.

The Silent Conversations Controlling Your Success   The Conversations Silently Controlling Your Life   The Dialogue Beneath the Surface You've checked the boxes. Career, family, personal milestones—on paper, it all looks good.   So why do certain moments still feel tight, disconnected, or misunderstood?   Here's a truth most people never stop to consider: It's not just what you say to others. It's what you don't say. And more importantly—what you're constantly saying to yourself.   In this episode of Richer Soul, we sit down with Chuck Wisner, author of The Art of Conscious Conversation, to explore how our everyday communication—spoken and unspoken—shapes the quality of our lives.   5 Soul-Level Insights from Chuck Wisner: (This isn't about talking better. It's about living more consciously.) You're not responding to the world—you're reacting to your internal story. Most people move through life guided not by truth, but by assumptions. Chuck shows how these hidden “storytelling conversations” create unnecessary conflict and block deeper connection. Listening is more than hearing—it's a form of presence. In a distracted world, true listening has become rare. Chuck explains how deep listening can heal relationships and dissolve tension—without needing to fix, defend, or solve. Emotions aren't problems to avoid—they're invitations to go deeper. Using his Spiral of Emotions model, Chuck reframes emotions like fear and anger as gateways to growth—if we're willing to stay curious rather than reactive. You can't have peace with others if you're at war within. Most of us speak from defense or habit. Conscious communication starts by noticing your own thoughts—and choosing which ones deserve your voice. Transformation starts in the pause. The space between what you feel and how you respond is where true change lives. Chuck helps us reclaim that space—and use it to build more honest, loving, and meaningful connections.   Why This Conversation Matters: We often think our challenges are about time, stress, or misalignment with others. But many of those outer struggles stem from one overlooked place: How we speak. How we listen. And the unconscious patterns we never question.   This episode is an invitation to pause—and begin again, more aware, more present, and more connected.   Money Learning: What if the way you talk about money is shaping the way you experience it? Chuck's framework reminds us: Every financial decision begins with a conversation—either with others or with yourself. For many successful people, money becomes a language of control, security, or identity. But when we stop and examine the emotions behind those conversations—fear, scarcity, pride—we begin to see how our words around money often reveal deeper stories about worth and safety. This episode invites you to ask: Are your money conversations driven by truth—or by unspoken fear? By bringing more presence and honesty to how we speak about wealth, we open the door to more peaceful, purpose-aligned choices.   Guest Bio: Chuck Wisner has spent 30 years as a trusted advisor, coach, and teacher in communication, human dynamics, and leadership excellence. He has worked with leaders and their teams in Fortune 200 companies. He also trained in mediation and worked as a senior mediator affiliated with the Harvard Mediation Program at the Harvard Law School, and later, was associated with MIT's Center for Organizational Learning. His book, The Art of Conscious Conversations – Transforming How We Talk, Listen, and Interact (BK Publishers, Oct. 22, 2022), explores how to heighten our awareness and become more conscious in our conversations.   Links:   Website- chuckwisner.com  LinkedIn- https://www.linkedin.com/company/chuckwisner/   Facebook- https://www.facebook.com/chuckwisnerconsulting   Instagram- https://www.instagram.com/chuck_wisner/   X- https://x.com/chuck_wisner   Book- The Art of Conscious Conversations – Transforming How We Talk, Listen, and Interact- https://www.amazon.com/Art-Conscious-Conversations-Transforming-Interact/dp/152300326X/   Key Discussion Points from This Episode: Why most conversations are driven by unconscious emotional patterns—not conscious choice. How “storytelling conversations” shape your worldview and sabotage your relationships. The hidden cost of trying to “fix” instead of listen. What it really means to pause between reaction and response—and why it's a spiritual practice. The Spiral of Emotions: how fear, anger, and shame can evolve into clarity and creativity. How to recognize when your ego is running the dialogue. The difference between conscious communication and controlling conversation. What Chuck learned from his own journey—from architect to spiritual communicator—and why presence changed everything.   Share This with Someone You Care About: If something in this episode helped you see your conversations—or yourself—differently, don't keep it to yourself. Share it with someone who's ready to grow through a deeper kind of communication. Because real change doesn't happen all at once. It happens one conscious conversation at a time. #RicherSoul #ConsciousCommunication #EmotionalIntelligence #SelfAwareness #InnerPeace #SpiritualGrowth #SoulSuccess #MindfulLiving #PurposeOverPerfection #LifeClarity    Watch the full episode on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@richersoul Richer Soul Life Beyond Money.

In conversation with Judge Edwin Cameron, Rebecca Gore and Sohela Surajpal This episode of Africa Rights Talk delves into the often-invisible world of South Africa's prison system through a compelling conversation with the authors of Behind Prison Walls: Unlocking a Safer South Africa, Judge Edwin Cameron, Rebecca Gore, and Sohela Surajpal. Drawing on their extensive experience at the Judicial Inspectorate for Correctional Services (JICS), the trio sheds light on the systemic violence, overcrowding, and lack of accountability that define life behind bars. The discussion explores the motivations behind writing the book and how it fills a critical gap in public understanding of incarceration and justice. With firsthand insights and reflections, the authors emphasize that prison reform is not just a matter of policy, but a moral imperative rooted in human rights. The episode offers a vision for what meaningful reform could look like, centering rehabilitation, dignity, and true safety for both inmates and society at large. Judge Cameron speaks to how his prison visits reshaped his understanding of justice and vulnerability, while Gore and Surajpal share the deeply personal stories that rarely make it into the public record. Together, they argue for a collective reimagining of South Africa's approach to correctional services, one that recognizes prisons as potential spaces of restoration rather than sites of perpetual harm. This thought-provoking episode challenges listeners to expand their understanding of justice beyond the prison walls.     Judge Edwin Cameron was appointed Inspecting Judge of prisons from 1 January 2020, after serving 25 years as a judge, the last eleven in South Africa's highest court, the Constitutional Court.  He has also authored Witness to AIDS and Justice: A Personal Account.   Rebecca Gore worked as a legal researcher to Inspecting Judge Edwin Cameron at the Judicial Inspectorate for Correctional Services (2021–2022) and law clerk at the Constitutional Court of South Africa (2019-2020). In addition, she has worked and consulted for a variety of international human rights bodies in South Africa and abroad, including the UN Working Group on discrimination against women and girls. She is currently a pupil advocate at the Cape Bar.  Rebecca holds a Bachelor of Social Science in Politics, Philosophy, and Economics (PPE), a postgraduate Honours degree, and an LLB from the University of Cape Town, where she is a research associate at the Centre for Law and Society. She earned her Master of Laws (LLM) from Harvard Law School, where she was awarded the Henigson Human Rights Fellowship. Her recent publications are: https://repository.law.umich.edu/mjgl/vol31/iss2/4/https://journals.law.harvard.edu/hrj/wp-content/uploads/sites/83/2024/06/05_HLH_37_1_Reyes-Farbstein169-206.pdf https://www.africanlawmatters.com/blog/carceral-period-poverty-in-south-african-prisons   Sohela Surajpal is a law clerk and researcher at the Judicial Inspectorate for Correctional Services.

He was at Harvard Law School with President Barack Obama and First Lady Michelle Obama. He's the founder and managing partner of SkyBridge Capital. And he's the founder and Chairman of the SALT conference.  Leadership through service: True leadership isn't about personal glory but about making others better and helping them succeed in their roles. Derek Jeter exemplified this by never caring about personal statistics, only team success. "If you're on the team, it's not about me, right? It's about you. How am I gonna make you better? Or how am I gonna make you feel good about your role? How am I gonna get you to think that I'm here to help you?" Flexibility and decision-making under pressure: Football taught Scaramucci the importance of reading situations quickly and making audibles at the line of scrimmage - skills that translate directly to business and life leadership. "You can't just say, okay, here's the game plan, right? Because that's what Mike Tyson says, right? You have the plan until you get punched in the face, or all battle plans go by the wayside with contact with the enemy." Resilience through adversity: Getting "your ass kicked" early in life builds the resilience needed for future challenges in business and politics. Early defeats teach you how to bounce back from failure. "That's called resilience, right? You gotta get over that... That's how you gotta get your ass kicked. Here I was... and I just remember feeling so puny... So how you gotta get over that." The confidence battle starts within: The first fight in life is with yourself - believing you're good enough and worthy to compete. Henry Ford's principle applies: "If you think you can or you can't, you are right." "The first fight is with yourself. Am I good enough? Am I worthy? Can I get to the game? Can I believe in myself enough so that I'm standing next to someone else who believes in themselves that I compete?" Accountability in relationships: When Scaramucci's marriage was in crisis, taking full accountability for his mistakes rather than deflecting blame was crucial to rebuilding the relationship. "I owe my wife Deirdre, a debt of gratitude for actually really loving me because I was off the rails on a few things... she's like, Hey, I'm not having this, so if you love me, get your shit together." Life coaching vs. therapy approach: Life coaching focuses on progression and future action ("What are we doing today to be better?") rather than regression into past issues. "I feel that therapy is a regression. Life coaching is a progression... forget about the past. What the hell are you gonna do? What are we doing today to make yourself a better person?" Forgiveness as liberation: Choosing to forgive both others and yourself removes the "millstone of regret" that weighs you down and prevents forward progress. "I can take that millstone of regret and leave it behind me, take it off of my neck and leave it behind me... human frailty and not judging it is not just you judging others, but also yourself." The comfortable outsider advantage: Being comfortable with your outsider status while still being able to operate in elite circles provides authentic confidence and relatability across all social levels. "I am a comfortable outsider. I'm not an insider... but I'm comfortable with it. You know, like guys like Trump or Rudy, they're uncomfortable. Outsiders... But I'm a comfortable outsider. I don't need to do that." Intellectual curiosity + neuroplasticity: Combining genuine curiosity about others with the ability to adapt and change allows you to move successfully between different social and professional circles. "Find your superpower... I think your superpower is very similar to my superpower... intellectual curiosity. And so if you can blend intellectual curiosity with neuroplasticity, meaning you can adopt and change... then you can move in various circles." Pivot for survival: Successful businesses and careers require constant reinvention. SkyBridge's conference business and pivot to Bitcoin were survival strategies that became major successes. "We were going outta business... This was an accidental survivor strategy. This was a pivot that we were making in order to stay in business. This was not some mastermind plan."

Is workplace well-being a strategic advantage or simply a leadership nicety? In this episode, Kevin Eikenberry sits down with Paula Davis to discuss the seismic shifts reshaping our workplaces, including the lasting impacts of the pandemic, ongoing debates about hybrid work, generational expectations, and the rise of AI.

Dr. Ruth Calderon joins the podcast to reflect on the personal and intellectual journey behind her book, A Bride for One Night. She begins by discussing her background and the role her parents played in nurturing her love of Torah, as mentioned in the book's dedication. She then unpacks her approach to the Talmud, describing how she reads aggadic texts not through a religious, academic, or educational lens, but as stories that have the power to move us. This perspective shaped her call for integrating the Talmud into Israeli culture and education, regardless of religious ideology, because these texts continue to speak to the modern Israeli experience. She also shares the thinkers who helped shape her methodology. The conversation concludes with a look back at her iconic Knesset speech—what led to it, the core message she hoped to convey, and its ongoing impact.---*This episode is dedicated to the refua shelema of Sarah Miriam bat Tamar, Binyamin ben Zilpa, and our dear friend Yaakov ben Haya Sarah Malakh---• Bio: Dr. Ruth Calderon is an Israeli Talmud scholar, educator, and former member of Knesset. Born in Tel Aviv to a Sephardic father from Bulgaria and an Ashkenazi mother from Germany, she was raised in a home that bridged religious traditions and cultures. She earned her BA at Oranim Academic College and the University of Haifa, and completed her MA and PhD in Talmud at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem. In 1989, she established Israel's first secular, pluralistic, and egalitarian beit midrash, and in 1996 she founded ALMA: Home for Hebrew Culture in Tel Aviv, to bring secular Israelis closer to their textual heritage. In 2013, she was elected to the Knesset on the Yesh Atid list, where her opening speech—teaching Talmud from the Knesset floor—became a national sensation. Calderon has held fellowships at the Shalom Hartman Institute and served as a visiting professor at Harvard Law School. She has received numerous honors, including the Avi Chai Prize, the Samuel Rothberg Prize for Jewish Education, and honorary doctorates from Brandeis University, the Jewish Theological Seminary, and Hebrew College. She is the author of A Bride for One Night, a collection of Talmudic tales interwoven with creative retellings, and continues to be a leading voice in the renewal of pluralistic Hebrew culture in Israel.---• Watch her infamous Knesset speech here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S8nNpTf7tNo---• Welcome to JUDAISM DEMYSTIFIED: A PODCAST FOR THE PERPLEXED | Co-hosted by Benjy & Benzi | Thank you to...Super Patron: Jordan Karmily, Platinum Patron: Craig Gordon, Rod Ilian, Gold Patrons: Dovidchai Abramchayev, Lazer Cohen, Travis Krueger, Vasili Volkoff, Vasya, Silver Patrons: Ellen Fleischer, Daniel M., Rabbi Pinny Rosenthal, Fred & Antonio, Jeffrey Wasserman, and Jacob Winston!

Anthea Roberts began her career in international law. But after years of studying global conflict and power, she realized the real problem wasn't policy—it was perspective. People weren't just disagreeing on solutions; they weren't even seeing the same problems. This realization led Anthea to develop "Dragonfly Thinking," a framework designed to help individuals and organizations view challenges through multiple lenses. She is now creating AI tools to apply this methodology to real-world decision-making. In this episode, Dart and Anthea talk about designing better thinking, why diverse mental frames matter, and what it means to build tools that make us better thinkers, not just faster ones.Anthea Roberts is the founding CEO of Dragonfly Thinking and a Professor at the Australian National University. Her award-winning book Six Faces of Globalization explores competing narratives shaping the global order, and her work blends law, systems, and cognition to help people and institutions think better at scale.In this episode, Dart and Anthea discuss:- Why thinking better—not faster—is the key to solving complex problems- How to help teams see their blind spots and cognitive defaults- What AI can and can't do to improve decision-making- Why tools must fit the human hand (and mind)- The value of metaphor and reframing in shaping insight- How to operationalize integrative complexity inside organizations- And other topics…Anthea Roberts is a Professor at the Australian National University's School of Regulation and Global Governance and a Visiting Professor at Harvard Law School. A globally recognized legal scholar and systems thinker, she created “Dragonfly Thinking,” a framework for navigating complexity through multiple perspectives.

Say we had credible intelligence about an impending terrorist attack or major acts of violence, what actions are justifiable to prevent these crimes from occurring? How do we balance the urgency of preventing harm, with the importance of safeguarding civil liberties?“We have to make trade-offs all the time, and there's no jurisprudence to that trade-off. We live in the preventive state,” says Alan Dershowitz, professor emeritus at Harvard Law School. “We are moving more and more toward replacing deterrence and reaction with prevention.”He is the author of the new book, “The Preventive State: The Challenge of Preventing Serious Harms While Preserving Essential Liberties.”Should someone charged—but not convicted—with a serious crime be denied bail to potentially prevent further crimes? Should governments be able to compel inoculations in a scenario where that could actually prevent deadly contagion? And notably, a few days after this interview was filmed, Israel launched preemptive strikes on Iran's nuclear facilities. When is such preventive military action warranted?In this episode, we dive into the legal framework laid out in his new book—which he describes as the most important work he's ever written—and get his insights into the debate around deploying the National Guard in Los Angeles, the Trump administration's clash with Harvard University, the dilemma of tackling Chinese espionage on college campuses, and the growing erosion of free speech protections in Europe.Views expressed in this video are opinions of the host and the guest, and do not necessarily reflect the views of The Epoch Times.

What happens when a major foundation president decides to speak out boldly during a crisis? How can philanthropy surge resources to protect nonprofit workers facing unprecedented job losses? In this season finale of the Fund the People Podcast, host Rusty Stahl sits down with John Palfrey, President of the John D. and Catherine T. MacArthur Foundation, to explore how courage becomes contagious in times of sector-wide attacks. You'll discover the real math behind foundation payout increases, learn why one foundation moved from 5% to 6% giving (adding $150 million over two years), and understand the strategic thinking behind multi-year general operating support.Palfrey shares the behind-the-scenes story of how MacArthur Foundation responded to federal cuts targeting nonprofits—from increasing their payout rate to joining solidarity campaigns that have gathered nearly 700 institutional signatures. He offers frank "real talk" about the trade-offs of long-term funding, explains why he believes in the constitutional "freedom to give," and discusses how foundations calculated that nonprofit grantees lost about 12% of their federal funding. This conversation reveals both the possibilities and limitations of philanthropic response during crisis.As attacks on nonprofits continue through 2025, this episode provides essential insights for anyone working in or with the social sector. Whether you're a nonprofit leader wondering how to navigate funding relationships, a foundation professional considering how to increase impact, or simply someone who believes in the power of organized giving, you'll gain practical knowledge about how major philanthropy is adapting to meet this unprecedented moment—and why taking summer breaks might be the most important advice of all.Funding for Real Change - fundingforrealchange.com (true cost initiative tools)Season 5, Episode 7: "The Great Double Standard" (Rusty's rant about foundation overhead policies)Season 4, Episode 10: “MacArthur Foundation Makes Changes to End Nonprofit Starvation Cycle – with Kenneth Jones, MacArthur Foundation” interview about MacArthur's indirect cost policy Season 7, Episode 17: “Meet the Moment: A Call to Action for Funders – with Shaady Salehi, Trust-Based Philanthropy Project”Season 7, Episode 1: “Do Funders Understand the Nonprofit Burnout Crisis? – with Elisha Smith Arrillaga, CEP” on the 2024 State of NonprofitsHR 9495 - "The Big, Bloated Bill" (link to Congress.gov full text)Center for Effective Philanthropy “State of Nonprofits 2025: What Funders Need to Know” John Palfrey's guest post on CEP blog “Courage in Unity: A Funder's Response to the ‘State of Nonprofits'” (June 3, 2025 response to the report)Council on Foundations public solidarity sign-on campaign - (694+ institutional signatures supporting philanthropy's freedom to give)"Meet the Moment" commitment - Trust-based philanthropy pledge (nearly 200 institutional signatures)The Courage Project - Coalition of nonprofits and foundations launched May 2025BioJohn Palfrey is President of the John D. and Catherine T.

Their Accomplices Wore Robes: How the Supreme Court Chained Black America to the Bottom of a Racial Caste System (Doubleday, 2025) takes readers from the Civil War era to the present and describes how the Supreme Court, even more than the presidency or Congress, aligned with the enemies of Black progress to undermine the promise of the Constitution's Thirteenth, Fourteenth, and Fifteenth Amendments.The Reconstruction Amendments, which sought to abolish slavery, establish equal protection under the law, and protect voting rights, converted the Constitution into a potent anti-caste document. But in the years since, the Supreme Court has refused to allow the amendments to fulfill that promise. Time and again, when petitioned to make the nation's founding conceit, that all men are created equal, real for Black Americans, the nine black robes have chosen white supremacy over racial fairness. Their Accomplices Wore Robes brings to life dozens of cases and their rich casts of characters to explain how America arrived at this point and how society might arrive somewhere better, even as today's federal courts lurch rightward.

Their Accomplices Wore Robes: How the Supreme Court Chained Black America to the Bottom of a Racial Caste System (Doubleday, 2025) takes readers from the Civil War era to the present and describes how the Supreme Court, even more than the presidency or Congress, aligned with the enemies of Black progress to undermine the promise of the Constitution's Thirteenth, Fourteenth, and Fifteenth Amendments.The Reconstruction Amendments, which sought to abolish slavery, establish equal protection under the law, and protect voting rights, converted the Constitution into a potent anti-caste document. But in the years since, the Supreme Court has refused to allow the amendments to fulfill that promise. Time and again, when petitioned to make the nation's founding conceit, that all men are created equal, real for Black Americans, the nine black robes have chosen white supremacy over racial fairness. Their Accomplices Wore Robes brings to life dozens of cases and their rich casts of characters to explain how America arrived at this point and how society might arrive somewhere better, even as today's federal courts lurch rightward. Brando Simeo Starkey is a writer and scholar. A graduate of Harvard Law School and a member of the New York Bar, he taught law at Villanova Law School and wrote for several years for ESPN's The Undefeated (now Andscape).

The wife and children of the terror suspect who allegedly burned Jewish protesters in Boulder, Colorado, have been captured and will be deported back to Egypt. While Democrats may fight back, Glenn argues why this is necessary. The largest demographic of immigrants coming to America are young, healthy men. Where are their family members?

This week on Breaking Battlegrounds, Chuck and Sam are joined by Oren Cass, chief economist at American Compass and editor of a new book, The New Conservatives, to define conservatism and discuss how conservatism needs to return to its roots by focusing on the ends—human flourishing and national well-being—rather than just making sure people have more stuff than they did the year before. Later, Ashley Rindsberg, senior editor at Pirate Wires and author of The Gray Lady Winked, joins the show to expose how Wikipedia and Reddit have been manipulated by coordinated left-wing and pro-Hamas influence campaigns. He also brakes down NPR's media entitlement mindset and how tech platforms are being exploited for data poisoning.

As an executive recruiter, Aaron interviewed and placed hundreds of attorneys into prestigious AmLaw 100 firms both domestically and internationally. Now, he brings that wealth of experience to Morgan & Morgan, passionately working "For the People" by ensuring the firm is staffed with the best trial attorneys available.

How to have the conversations that are most difficult — and most important.Before you can have hard conversations with others, you need to have an honest conversation with yourself. That's the counterintuitive advice from Sheila Heen, who says our own internal narratives often derail our attempts at negotiation and conflict resolution."The first negotiation is actually a negotiation I have with myself about my own story," explains Heen, a Harvard Law School lecturer and co-author of Difficult Conversations: How to Discuss What Matters Most. When entering challenging interactions, she recommends a powerful shift where we consider that our perspective is only one side of the story. "If I can shift my purpose from convincing you of something to just understanding how you see it and why we might see it differently, that actually is more likely to generate a good conversation with less defensiveness for both of us."In this episode of Think Fast, Talk Smart, Heen joins Matt Abrahams to explore effective communication in high-stakes situations. From giving and receiving feedback with her “ACE” framework (Appreciation, Coaching, and Evaluation) to recognizing the "degrees of difficulty" in disagreements, she offers practical strategies for having productive conversations even when emotions run high.Episode Reference Links:Sheila Heen Sheila's Books: Difficult Conversations / Thanks for the Feedback  Ep.144 Communicating Through Conflict: How to Get Along with AnyoneEp.136 The Art of Disagreeing Without Conflict: Navigating the Nuance  Connect:Premium Signup >>>> Think Fast Talk Smart PremiumEmail Questions & Feedback >>> hello@fastersmarter.ioEpisode Transcripts >>> Think Fast Talk Smart WebsiteNewsletter Signup + English Language Learning >>> FasterSmarter.ioThink Fast Talk Smart >>> LinkedIn, Instagram, YouTubeMatt Abrahams >>> LinkedInChapters:(00:00) - Introduction (01:36) - Managing Anxiety in Tough Conversations (04:15) - Why Emotions Matter (07:23) - Shifting the Story We Tell Ourselves (08:41) - Starting with the Real Issue (10:20) - Getting Unstuck in Conflict (13:18) - ACE: The Three Types of Feedback (16:20) - Making Feedback Actionable (18:40) - Finding Common Ground (20:17) - The Final Three Questions (27:32) - Conclusion    *****This episode is brought to you by Babbel.
