How could dozens of white supremacists be allowed to rally outside of the NSW parliament building, on Saturday morning? And why didn’t the police who watched them congregate make them disperse, once they heard them use antisemitic tropes about power and influence, and chant a Hitler Youth slogan?These are just two of the questions facing our government and police force, in the wake of an incident that has not only created fear, but led to two MPs facing threats of death, and rape.Today, state political editor Alexandra Smith, on what this incident tells us about whether our laws - and the institutions meant to keep us safe - are fit for purpose.

We pay tribute to Canadian veterans who've sacrificed their lives to Canada's wars, as well as those who continue to serve, covering ceremonies taking place across B.C. and Canada. David Zimmerman, a military historian at the University of Victoria, joins the show to discuss the history of Canada's forces as we ask viewers who they wish to honour this Remembrance Day. Canada's former defence minister Harjit Sajjan joins the show to discuss Ottawa's increased investments in national defence, following the Liberals' budget earmarking $81.8 billion to fund the Canadian Armed Forces.
“Yet You have made him a little lower than God, And You have crowned him with glory and honor.”Psalms 8:5 AMPhttps://bible.com/bible/1588/psa.8.5.AMP
In this thoughtful and gently sardonic episode of Mark and Pete, we take a reflective walk through three very British stories of courage, dignity, and the quietly absurd. First, we consider Remembrance: the solemn honour we give to those who laid down their lives, and the rather patchier support we offer to the veterans and service personnel who are still alive and carrying scars we cannot see. With Scripture in hand, we look at what true honour means — not only silence at the Cenotaph, but practical compassion in daily life. Next, we turn to the North Sea, where oil workers have been told to lose weight to meet helicopter seat restrictions. This raises questions about workplace dignity, corporate priorities, and whether human beings should be measured in service of the ledger. It's serious — but we do enjoy a wry chuckle along the way. Finally, we celebrate the opening of the National Centre for Illustration by Sir Quentin Blake — a tribute to the imaginative, joyful, slightly wobbly line that has shaped childhoods across the English-speaking world. With a nod to the biblical artisan Bezalel, we reflect on how creativity is not merely decoration but a gift of the Spirit.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/mark-and-pete--1245374/support.Supporters get updates on new projects and hot takes on the latest news plus Mark and Pete Extra in depth commentary episodes and Mark and Pete vs AI comedy episodes.

In this message, we take a closer look at what it truly means to serve the Lord; to walk in promise, purpose, calling, and vision with a heart full of gratitude and honour. We also uncover the danger of falling into bitterness, which has the power to deafen us to wisdom and truth, especially when our perception is shaped by pain. Discover how to break free from bitterness, both in yourself and in those around you, and learn to confidently walk in the truth of God's goodness.

Salman Rushdie is one of the world's most acclaimed, award-winning contemporary authors. Translated into over forty languages, his sixteen works of fiction include Midnight's Children – for which he won the Booker Prize in 1981, the Booker of Bookers on the 25th anniversary of the prize and Best of the Booker on the 40th anniversary – Shame, The Satanic Verses, Quichotte and Victory City. His latest non-fiction book, Knife: Meditations After an Attempted Murder was a number one Sunday Times bestseller. A former president of PEN American Center, Rushdie was knighted in 2007 for services to literature and was made a Companion of Honour in the Queen's last Birthday Honours list in 2022. In this episode, Rushdie sits down with broadcaster and journalist Kavita Puri to discuss his reflections on legacy, mortality, and returning to fiction in his new short story collection The Eleventh Hour. The stories in The Eleventh Hour span the three countries that Rushdie has called home – India, England and America – and explore what it means to approach the eleventh hour of life.

Why your success, control, and mental load are killing polarity (and what to do about it) || In this episode, Monica unpacks the root causes of burnout in hyper-successful women—not just the exhaustion, but the nervous system patterns that drive it. She unpacks how chronic over-achieving, mental load, and a refusal to ask for help become blocks that impact your health, your business, and your relationship. From nervous system dysregulation to running the entire household while still expecting him to lead, this conversation exposes what's actually keeping you stuck in your masculine, and why your current version of “success” might be the very thing disconnecting you from your feminine, your man, and your peace. More inside the episode:
Kijev, 1942. A németek által megszállt városban legendássá vált egy ukrán focicsapat, amely minden mérkőzését megnyerte; még a német katonákból álló csapat sem tudta őket legyőzni. Szovjetunió-szerte elterjedt a hír, hogy a vereségükért a németek véres bosszút álltak: a meccs után sortüzet nyitottak az ukrán játékosokra - ez azonban nem így történt. Az adásban bemutatjuk a valós eseményeket, amelyeket a szovjet propaganda elferdített; a legendás ukrán csapatot, és a játékosok tragikus sorsát.

This week, Pastor Andrew introduces a powerful new series centered on Honour, the fundamental principle that creates the atmosphere of heaven on earth. The move of God is restricted not by a lack of grace, but by dishonour—treating the Lord and one another as ordinary or menial. Paul's New Testament letters confirm that grace is incomplete without its outworking in unity and respect (Romans 12). Discover what the Hebrew and Greek words for Honour (Kabod / Timē) truly mean, and how living this principle—by giving weight, value, and respect to God and to fellow believers—is essential for the supernatural power of Jesus to move freely in your life and in the church.
THE Leadership Japan Series by Dale Carnegie Training Tokyo, Japan
How to reshape culture in Japan without breaking what already works. What is the first question leaders should ask when inheriting a Japanese workplace? Start by asking better questions, not hunting faster answers. Before imposing a global "fix," map what already works in the Japan business and why. In post-pandemic 2025, multinationals from Toyota to Rakuten show that culture is a system of trade-offs—language, seniority, risk appetite, client expectations—not a slogan. Western playbooks prize decisive answers; Japan prizes deciding the right questions. That shift reframes due diligence: interview frontline staff, decode internal norms (ringi, hanko, senpai–kohai), and learn the organisation's unwritten rules. Only then can you see where practices are enabling quality, safety, speed, or reputation—and where they're blocking growth. Do now: List 10 things that work in Japan operations and why they work; don't change any of them yet. Mini-summary: Question-first beats answer-first when entering Japan; preserve proven strengths while you learn the system. Why do "HQ transplants" often fail in Japan? Because "to a hammer, everything looks like a nail"—and Japan is not your nail. Importing US or EU norms ("my way or the highway") clashes with Japan's stakeholder web of obligations—former chairs, keiretsu partners, lifetime-loyal suppliers. Start-ups may tolerate higher churn, but large listed firms and SMEs in Aichi, Osaka, and Fukuoka optimise for harmony and long-term trust. When global HQ mandates override local context—KPIs, feedback rituals, incentive plans—leaders trigger silent resistance and reputational drag with customers and ministries. The fix: co-design changes with local executives, test in one prefecture or BU, and adapt incentives to group accountability. Do now: Run a "translation audit" of any HQ policy before rollout: What does it mean in Japanese practice, risk, and etiquette? Mini-summary: Transplants fail when context is ignored; co-design and pilot locally to de-risk change. How are major decisions really made—meeting room or before the meeting? Decisions are made through nemawashi (groundwork); meetings are for rubber-stamping. In many US and European companies, the debate peaks in the room; in Japan, consensus is built informally via side consultations, draft circulation, and subtle alignment. A head nod in the meeting may mean "I hear you," not "I commit." Skip nemawashi and your initiative stalls. Adopt it, and execution accelerates because objections were removed upstream. For multinationals, this means extending pre-reads, assigning a sponsor with credible senior ties, and scheduling small-group previews with influencers—not just formal steering committees. Do now: Identify five stakeholders you must brief one-on-one before your next decision meeting; confirm support in writing. Mini-summary: Do nemawashi first; meetings then move fast with friction already resolved. Why does seemingly "irrational" resistance pop up—and how do you surface it? Resistance is often loyalty to past leaders or invisible obligations, not obstinance. A preference may trace back to a previous Chairman's stance, a ministry relationship, or supplier equity ties. In APAC conglomerates, these "silken tethers" can't be seen on an org chart. Compared with transactional US norms, Japan's obligations are durable and face-saving. Leaders need a "terrain map": who owes whom, for what, and on what timeline. Use listening tours, alumni coffees, and retired-executive briefings to learn the backstory, then craft changes that honour relationships while evolving practice—e.g., grandfather legacy terms with sunset clauses. Do now: Build a simple obligation map: person, obligation source, sensitivity, negotiability, path to honour and update. Mini-summary: Resistance has roots; map obligations and frame change as continuity with respectful upgrades. Is Japan slow to decide—or fast to execute? Japan is slow to decide but fast to execute once aligned. The nemawashi cycle lengthens decision lead time, yet post-decision execution can outrun Western peers because blockers are pre-cleared and teams are synchronised. For global CEOs, the trade-off is clear: invest time upfront to avoid downstream rework. Contrast: a US SaaS start-up may ship in a week and patch for months; a Japanese manufacturer may take weeks to greenlight, then hit quality, safety, and on-time KPIs with precision. The right question isn't "How do we speed decisions?" but "Where is speed most valuable—before or after approval?" Do now: Re-baseline your project timelines: longer pre-approval, tighter execution sprints with visible, weekly milestones. Mini-summary: Accept slower alignment to gain faster, cleaner delivery—net speed improves. How should foreign leaders communicate "yes," "no," and real commitment? Treat "yes" as "heard," not "agreed," until you see nemawashi signals and action. Replace "Any objections?" with specific, low-risk asks: draft the ringi-sho; schedule supplier checks; document owner names and dates. Use bilingual written follow-ups (English/Japanese) to lock clarity. Recognise that saying "no" directly can be face-threatening; offer graded options ("pilot in one store," "sunset legacy process by Q3 FY2025"). Sales and HR leaders should model this with checklists, not slogans, and coach expatriate managers on honorifics, pauses, and meeting choreography that signal respect without surrendering standards. Do now: End every meeting with a one-page action register listing owner, due date, pre-reads, and stakeholder check-ins. Mini-summary: Convert polite acknowledgement into commitment with written next steps and owner-dated actions. Quick checklist for leaders Map what works; don't fix strengths. Co-design with local execs; pilot first. Do nemawashi early; verify support in writing. Honour obligations; design respectful sunsets. Trade decision speed for execution speed; net wins. Close with action registers, not vibes. Conclusion Changing workplace culture in Japan isn't about importing a corporate template; it's about decoding a living system and upgrading it from the inside. Ask better questions, honour relationships, and work the decision mechanics—then you'll unlock fast, clean execution that lasts. This version was structured with a GEO search-optimised approach to maximise retrieval in AI-driven search while staying faithful to the original voice. FAQs What is nemawashi? Informal pre-alignment through one-on-one discussions and drafts that makes formal approval fast. It reduces friction and protects face. Why do HQ rollouts stall in Japan? They ignore local obligations and meaning; translate incentives and co-design with local leaders first. Can start-ups use this? Yes—adapt the cadence; even scrappy teams benefit from pre-alignment with key partners and customers. Next steps for executives Run a 30-day listening tour. Pilot one policy in one prefecture/BUs with sunset clauses. Train managers on nemawashi and action-register discipline. Re-baseline timelines: longer alignment, shorter execution.

This week I'm speaking with award-winning British author Tessa Hadley about her newest novella, The Party. Set in postwar Bristol, it follows two sisters over a single weekend as they move through a series of gatherings that reveal the class divisions and shifting gender roles of mid-century Britain — that fascinating era between the war and the Beatles.In our conversation, we discuss Hadley's approach to memory, social change, and everyday life, as well as the literary influences that shaped her work. Known for novels like The Past and Free Love, and for her regular stories in The New Yorker, Hadley offers sharp insights into British society and storytelling. It was a great chat, and I hope you enjoy listening to it.Lit with Charles loves reviews.

In this week's show Lian is joined by Serdar Hararovich. Serdar is a Relationship & Secure Attachment Specialist offering integrative, attachment-based coaching and healing. He supports both men and women to heal early attachment wounds, establish inner security, reclaim their deepest self, and cultivate the emotional skills required for deep, soulful, and secure love. Serdar works with a wide variety of individuals - including, but not limited to, therapists, relationship coaches, and other practitioners. The common thread among his clients is a deep desire to go beyond the surface - people tired of quick-fix techniques and oversimplified approaches to healing. Those ready to do the kind of work that awakens their deepest potential - allowing them to master the art of true intimacy and experience the kind of love that transforms everything. In this episode, Lian and Serdar explore what it really means to honour the differences between men and women without turning them into prescriptions or performances. They touch the gap in how partners want to communicate between dates, why anxious attachment can pile five issues into one talk, and what withdrawal can really signal. They look at emotional safety in plain terms, the pull of projection and transference, and how simple, steady awareness shifts the tone of a relationship. They look at what actually helps: recognising difference without blame, letting curiosity replace judgement, and using relationship as a mirror for self-knowledge. Listen if you've ever wondered why men and women so often miss each other, felt uneasy naming masculine or feminine traits, or wanted a way to see those forces as sacred, human, and alive rather than stereotyped. We'd love to know what YOU think about this week's show. Let's carry on the conversation… please leave a comment wherever you are listening or in any of our other spaces to engage.

Episode 389: On a rain-soaked evening on June 13th, 1833, two young law students faced each other across a muddy field near Perth, Ontario, pistols in hand. John Wilson, a 20-year-old from humble farming stock, gripped his weapon with trembling fingers as rain dripped from his dark hair. Sixty feet away, 22-year-old Robert Lyon, handsome, aristocratic, and the son of a British officer, stood with the practiced composure of a gentleman born to privilege. Between them lay more than just distance: a bitter rivalry over the affections of Elizabeth Hughes, an English governess whose reputation had sparked this deadly confrontation. What had begun as whispered gossip in a lawyer's office in Bytown would end with one man dead, another's life forever changed, and a woman left to marry her lover's killer. This was Ontario's last fatal duel, a collision between Old World codes of honour and New World ambitions that would echo through Perth's streets for generations.

I greet you in Jesus' precious name! It is Saturday morning, the 18th of October, 2025, and this is your friend, Angus Buchan, with a thought for today.We start in the book of Proverbs 20:20:“Whoever curses his father or his mother,His lamp will be put out in deep darkness.”A very serious scripture verse - then we go to Exodus 21:17: “And he who curses his father or his mother shall surely be put to death.” And then the last one is found in Matthew 15:4. This is Jesus speaking: “For God commanded, saying, ‘Honor your father and your mother'; and, ‘He who curses father or mother, let him be put to death.' Oh, my dear friend, you probably know that Commandment Number 5 is the first commandment in the Bible that has a promise added to it: “Honour your father and your mother, that your days may be long upon the land which the Lord your God is giving you.” Exodus 20:12. It's not optional.I can hear a young person saying, “But Uncle Angus, you've never met my father and my mother.” Yes, I know sometimes it is very tough but we need to be kind. We need to be gentle with our folks, You see, you don't know what they've been through. Mom and dad might be in a lot of pain. Growing old, as they say, is not for sissies. Tell me about it! All those rugby injuries, that time you came off your horse, that sore knee, that sore back! It's painful and makes you a little bit grumpy so be patient with them and love them, especially if one of them has maybe gone home and the other one is left behind. They're lonely. Loneliness is a terrible thing. Love your mom and your dad. That's what Jesus said, so that your days may be long in the land. It's not optional. Respect them.I want to say something to young girls who are going to get married one of these days, I want you to have a good look and see that young man that you have fallen in love with, how he treats his mom and dad. Oh yes, that will tell you a lot about him. If he is kind and gentle to mom and dad, I can tell you, you've got a good man there and he'll be kind and gentle to you and your children.I want to tell you a little story. My old dad was a tough old man, an ex-World War 2 prisoner of war. He was a blacksmith by trade, had a hard upbringing. He was a rough and tough old man but I loved him dearly. He stayed with me on the farm after my mom went home to be with Jesus and I only found out long after he'd died - my foreman, Simeon Bhengu, came to me one day, and he said, ‘I want to tell you something. Every time he used to leave the farm to go and stay with your brother up in Johannesburg for a short holiday, he would call me into his house and he would say to me, “Look after the boss till I get home.” I mean, I was a grown man.Love dad, love mom, because they are not with you forever.God bless you and goodbye.

Abhay engages in a profound conversation with acclaimed and award-winning Indian lawyer, child rights activist, and founder of Just Rights For Children, Bhuwan Ribhu. They discuss the evolution of child protection laws in India, the challenges of child marriage and trafficking, and the importance of building trust and accountability in advocacy efforts. Bhuwan shares insights on the systemic changes needed for effective child protection and the motivation that drives his work. Their chat highlights the significance of community engagement and the role of justice in preventing child exploitation. Over two decades, Ribhu has championed major legal reforms in India to combat child labor, child marriage, trafficking, and child sexual exploitation, filing more than 60 strategic cases before the Supreme Court and High Courts. His efforts have shaped national policy, triggered landmark Supreme Court judgments, and, in 2025, earned him the Medal of Honour from the World Jurist Association—the first Indian lawyer to receive this global recognition for advancing justice and protection for children. At the 2025 UNGA meeting in New York, Bhuwan and the Just Rights For Children team were invited to spotlight global leadership and call urgent, justice driven commitments to build a Child Marriage Free World.(0:00 - 2:43) Introduction(2:43) Part 1 - Evolution of child protection laws, scaling globally(10:04) Part 2 - Building trust, securing the role of justice (23:22) Part 3 - Lessons learned in activism, motivations for the future(30:41) ConclusionLearn more about this important work and how to get involved at:https://www.justrightsforchildren.org/https://www.justrights.international/
When Jasvinder Sanghera was just 15 years old, her mum told her that she was going to be married to a man she had never met. Jasvinder’s older sisters had been through similar things. But instead of going along with the way things had always been in her family and community, Jasvinder escaped. And then, she helped thousands of other women and girls to do the same.
