In this episode of the Lupus Foundation of America's The Expert Series podcast, we focus on how steroids are an essential and often life-saving treatment for people with lupus, even though the new SLE guidelines recommend using them as little as possible. Our guest speaker, Dr. Megan Lockwood, walks us through why steroids play such a critical role in lupus care, the potential risks and downsides of prolonged use and why limiting their use whenever possible is equally important. We also discuss how patients can work with their health care providers to develop a thoughtful, personalized steroid plan and have productive conversations with their doctors about managing steroid treatment.Sign up to receive emails from the Lupus Foundation of America (LFA) when new episodes are published: https://support.lupus.org/site/SPageNavigator/email_subscribe_expert_series.htmlThis episode will help you understand:How steroid mechanism of actionThe importance of minimizing steroid useShort and long-term side effects of steroidsAlternatives to steroids in lupus treatmentSafe steroid tapering strategiesFuture treatments and research developmentsRelated Resources:Ask a Lupus Health Educator (LFA): https://www.lupus.org/care-support/ask-a-health-educatorFind Support Near You (LFA): https://www.lupus.org/resources/find-support-near-youNational Resource Center on Lupus (LFA): https://www.lupus.org/resourcesThe Expert Series (LFA): https://www.lupus.org/resources/lupus-the-expert-seriesMedications Used to Treat Lupus (LFA): https://www.lupus.org/resources/medications-used-to-treat-lupus

Farciennes, in een bocht aan de Samber, 1851. Een kapel gaat plat, onder het koor komen vijf kisten aan het licht, van twee volwassenen en twee kinderen. In het hout, ter hoogte van de borst: een grote spijker, 68 centimeter voor de volwassenen, 49 voor de kinderen. In één ervan is een omega en het cijfer 3 gegraveerd. Het archeologisch museum van Charleroi kreeg ze in zijn bezit, maar door diefstal of slordigheid verdwenen ze uit de verzameling...Naast mij staat professor doctor Otto Rosenknopf, de kwantumfysicus die zich ook inlaat met artificiële intelligenties. Hij opent zijn zijn NECROFON koffer en zegt dat dit zo'n case is waarin de feiten schaars zijn en de interpretaties bloeddorstig. Negentig procent reconstructie, tien procent ruis, hallucinatie, artificieel intelligente verkeerde klemtonen en Hollandse accenten. Otto slaakt een wetenschappelijk volstrekt verantwoorde zucht. Bent u ook zo benieuwd hoe een historische vampier klinkt, beste luisteraar? Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/mysterieus-belgie--5917929/support.Mysterieus België is een podcast van de Vlaamse auteur Patrick Bernauw.

This week Dr. Gregg Mays reminds us that sin takes you farther than you want to go, keeps you longer than you want to stay, and costs you more than you want to pay. Unfortunately, for him, this episode is based on a true story that happened to him. As he stated in a previous episode, sin costs.

DE WAKERS AAN DE MAASIn de eerste aflevering van Alternatieve Feiten: Wat als de Belgische Revolutie mislukt was? kon je meemaken hoe ik via een obscuur programma in een parallelle wereld terechtkwam, waar koning Willem-Alexander II die dag officieel de nieuwe federale regeringszetel in Brussel opende. Het gebouw met de naam Noordzeepoort, moest symbool staan voor de eenheid van onze natie, van Groningen tot Aarlen. Het Ministerie van Taalharmonie en Regionale Gevoeligheden maakt die dag ook de nieuwe Taalharmonie-index bekend, en eindelijk was er goed nieuws voor de boeren: na weken van onderhandelen werd eindelijk een akkoord bereikt over de exportverhouding tussen Gouda en Orval. Maar hoe verliep de Eerste Wereldoorlog dan, als daar een groot en sterk Noordzeerijk in de weg lag voor een Duits offensief? En als die Grote Oorlog niet eindigde op het trauma van Versailles, is het dan mogelijk dat ene Adolf Hitler tot een voetnoot in de geschiedenis zou worden gereduceerd?In deze tweede aflevering buigen we ons vooral over de gevolgen voor de Grote Oorlog. Hoe het nazisme daardoor geen kans kreeg om een factor van belang te worden, lees je in het ebook waarin het hele verhaal verteld wordt: Alternatieve Feiten: Wat als de Belgische Revolutie mislukt was? Hier vind je de eerste aflevering van Wat als de Belgische Revolutie mislukt was?Deze tweede aflevering werd net als de eerste gemaakt door Patrick Bernauw (script & stem), Antoine Derksen (stem & sound design) en Casper Derksen (stem).

Patrick Bernauw over het nieuwe boek Coffarnaüm van Pierrette COffrée: "Dit is geen bundel gedichten, dit is een storm. Een tornado van woorden, beelden, talen, stemmen - en zoals u wellicht weet, pleegt een tornado ook al eens enige eh… verwarring te veroorzaken.Coffarnaüm is dus een zootje. Want dat is waar het woord ‘caffarnaüm' voor staat. Dat is daar een waar caffarnaüm!... Een wan-orde, een chaos, zoals in de Bijbelse stad Kapernaüm.De verhalende slam poetry speelt zich af in een Fantastisch Vlaanderen, een parallel universum dat ook het mijne is – denk maar aan deze podcast, Mysterieus België. Ik woon al een leven lang in Erembodegem; de mythische en mystieke Sint Amanduskapel ligt op een paar steenworpen van mijn achterdeur… Pierrette hangt een indringend portret op van de goedheilige patroonheilige van Vlaanderen (ook die van de brouwers en barmannen).Een ander moment dat mij als schrijver van Het Bloed van het Lam zeer dierbaar is, is de passage over het Lam Gods. Want ja, evenmin als het paneel de Rechtvaardige Rechters blijft dit schaap niet netjes op zijn plaats staan. Het ontsnapt. Het wandelt Gent in. Het wil… leven. En het zegt, heel eenvoudig en ontroerend: 't schaap wil schaap zijn, geen wollig verhaal'. Wie van ons wil niet gewoon… zichzelf zijn, zonder verhaal dat door anderen wordt opgelegd?Een van mijn favoriete momenten - dat komt omdat dus vanwege mijn boeken over de Graal en de Kroost van Kristus - komt uit het gedicht over het Heilig Bloed van Brugge, waar een engel met een knipoog naar meneer en mevrouw Macbeth, bijna hysterisch roept: “Ik word zot van die vlek, van die plek!” Waarna een ode volgt… aan een wasmiddel. Als dat geen hedendaagse mystiek is, dan weet ik het ook niet meer!Zet u dus schrap voor de Venus van Kortrijk, Aphrodita Cloacina, een bonte stoet (aarts)engelen, de Muskspin en tirades op de AI-rage. Dit is een bevleugelde tocht door Flauma-land, ons plat pays, op de zielebriesen van COffrée, alles gebracht met de nodige humor. Pierrette COffrée (Moorsele, 1983) is dichter en performer (H.Teirlinck), in hybride vormen. Haar debuut Tabak Taboek verscheen in '24, eveneens bij de Scriptomanen, en is nog steeds verkrijgbaar in de boekhandel. Zij is poet in permanent residence in Ercola (Experimental Research Center Of Liberal Arts) in Antwerpen, en doceert Woord aan de podiumacademie van Lier. Kenners lezen deze bundel als een proeve van magisch-reële slampoetry.Mysterieus België bracht eerder al van Pierrette de performance Dream Quest op de Kezelberg uit Tabak Taboek. Tijdens het literair festival Scriptomanen in the Mojo (Kunstoevers, Aalst) stelt zij op 24 mei Aboramandus voor uit haar bundel Coffarnaüm, verkrijgbaar in iedere boekhandel.   Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/mysterieus-belgie--5917929/support.Mysterieus België is een podcast van de Vlaamse auteur Patrick Bernauw.

Ter gelegenheid van het artistiek stadsfestival Kunstoevers in Aalst, op 23, 24 en 25 mei 2026, stelt Patrick Bernauw zijn nieuwe boek Groetjes uit de Vierde Dimensie voor in bluescafé The Mojo, Rozemarijnstraat 7 te Aalst.  Dit gebeurt op 23 mei om 15 uur. Hij trapt bij die gelegenheid ook de literaire wedstrijd voor flashfiction, microfictie, flits- of handpalmverhalen op gang (= ultrakorte verhalen) waarover je alle info hier kunt vinden. Tot en met 10 mei kun je het boek trouwens nog bestellen aan vriendenprijsje via deze webpagina.In deze podcast stelt Patrick Bernauw zijn boek even goed aan u voor, met de hulp van Albert Einstein, David Attenborough en nog wat andere illustere compagnons van Suno (liedjes en muziek), WoodyTech Voxdo en ElevenLabs. Hij brengt vier verhalen uit de bundel: De zee leest mee, 11/17, Merlijn in Rennes en Code Rood. Groetjes uit de Vierde Dimensie speelt zich grotendeels af in het parallel universum van Mysterieus België. Het is een boek vol postkaarten (Vlaanderen) of ansichtkaarten (Nederland) uit werelden die nét niet bestaan. Ze zijn vergezeld van ultrakorte verhalen, "microfictie" over vergeten plekken, onmogelijke ontmoetingen, tijd die zich vergist, herinneringen die vooruitlopen op zichzelf.De sfeer is dromerig, ontregelend, soms melancholisch en dan weer ronduit griezelig, altijd speels en poëtisch.De reeks ontstond uit analoge blackout poetry ("stiftgedichten") en collages die Patrick Bernauw de afgelopen jaren maakte, en die hij liet dialogeren met artificiële intelligentie, in een voortdurende wisselwerking van woord en beeld. "Omarm het toeval," luidde het motto, en ga er creatief mee aan de slag. Dit boek is geen verzameling van bestemmingen, maar van onverwachte doorgangen naar de vierde dimensie. Heel wat verhalen zijn bovendien verwerkt in diverse podcast afleveringen en de postkaarten zijn ook apart beschikbaar, in groot formaat. Groetjes uit de Vierde Dimensie is een paperback van 105 bladzijden, in liggend rechthoekig formaat, alle postkaarten zijn in kleur.  Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/mysterieus-belgie--5917929/support.Mysterieus België is een podcast van de Vlaamse auteur Patrick Bernauw.

Eigenlijk ben ik op zoek naar een oud krantenartikel, bij valavond, in een halfdonkere kamer, achter mijn laptop met te veel tabbladen open. Ik doe wat research over de rellen van 25 augustus 1830, over De Stomme van Portici en hoe een opera een land kan laten ontploffen. Google leidt me steeds weer naar dezelfde pagina's, Wikipedia helemaal bovenaan. Ik klik geïrriteerd verder in de zoekresultaten en beland op een pagina die er uitziet alsof ze een kwarteeuw geleden is gebouwd. Grijze achtergrond, en dat duffe Courier lettertype:MULTI – Multiversum Lokaal Toegangsinterface. Een onderzoeksproject van het Europees Centrum voor Quantum-Historische Simulatie. Bètaversie – niet voor publiek gebruik.Ik moet erom lachen. Dit ruikt verdacht veel naar een vergeten alternate reality game, een ARG zoals ik er een paar decennia geleden zoveel gemaakt heb. Of misschien gaat het om een kunstproject, of een grap van een informaticastudent. Maar er is een tekstveld, en een knop Formuleer uw toegangsvraag. Uit pure balorigheid typ ik: Zoek mij een quantum-historische toegangspoort naar een wereld waarin de Belgische Revolutie van 1830 mislukt is.'Wat als ik vervolgens in een wereld terechtkom waar koning Willem-Alexander II die dag officieel de nieuwe federale regeringszetel in Brussel opent? Het gebouw, dat de naam de Noordzeepoort draagt, moet symbool staan voor de eenheid van onze natie, van Groningen tot Aarlen. De inhuldiging gaat gepaard met een militaire parade en een concert van het Koninklijk Noordzeelands Harmonieorkest.Het Ministerie van Taalharmonie en Regionale Gevoeligheden maakt die dag ook de nieuwe Taalharmonie-index bekend. Volgens voorlopige cijfers zou het aantal geregistreerde taalincidenten in het parlement gedaald zijn tot veertien. Dat is een historisch laag cijfer.En dan is er nog goed nieuws voor de boeren: na weken van onderhandelen is er eindelijk een akkoord bereikt over de kaasquota. De noordelijke en zuidelijke provincies hebben een compromis gevonden over de exportverhouding tussen Gouda en Orval. De beruchte “kaascrisis” lijkt daarmee voorlopig bezworen...Alternatieve Feiten: Wat als de Belgische Revolutie mislukt was?

Israeli forces still occupy half of Gaza. In the cease-fire deal, Israel agreed to fully withdraw its presence there once Hamas fully demilitarized. But Amit Segal thinks that's unlikely to happen anytime soon. Instead, he believes Gaza will end up divided. So what does that really mean? What are the implications?Segal is the chief political analyst for Channel 12 News in Israel and is known to be quite close to the Netanyahu government. He writes the newsletter It's Noon in Israel and is the author of the book “A Call at 4 a.m.: Thirteen Prime Ministers and the Crucial Decisions That Shaped Israeli Politics,” which was recently published in English.In this conversation, he talks about why most Israelis don't see the cease-fire as the end of the war between Israel and Hamas and how this conflict is mapping onto Israeli politics — both at present and as the country looks toward its next elections.This episode contains strong language.Book Recommendations:The Accidental President by A.

The writer Ta-Nehisi Coates was harshly critical of my response to Charlie Kirk's assassination. In an article in Vanity Fair, he suggested I was whitewashing Kirk's legacy, comparing it to the whitewashing of the Southern cause after the Civil War.So I wanted to have Coates on the show to talk out our disagreement, as well as some deeper questions that I think exist underneath it about the work of politics.What should the left do about the fact that so many Americans share Kirk's views? What kinds of disagreements should we try to bridge? When is that work moral and necessary, and when is it a betrayal?This episode contains strong language.Mentioned:“Charlie Kirk, Redeemed: A Political Class Finds Its Lost Cause” by Ta-Nehisi CoatesBetween the World and Me by Ta-Nehisi Coates“My President Was Black” by Ta-Nehisi CoatesBook Recommendations:The Brothers by Stephen KinzerRace and Reunion by David W.

This is McCarthyism 2.0. Since Charlie Kirk's assassination, the Trump administration has been speed-running an attack on the “radical left.” And the tactics it has been using are darkly reminiscent of the Red Scare of the 1940s and '50s. So what can that period teach us about the current moment and what the Trump administration might do next? How far could this go? Corey Robin is a political theorist at Brooklyn College. He's an expert on McCarthyism and the author of the book “The Reactionary Mind,” one of the most insightful books you can read on the Trumpist right. In this conversation, he walks through what happened in the first and second Red Scares and what made him start worrying about the Trump administration.This episode contains strong language.Mentioned:Red Scare by Clay Risen“How Democrats Drove Silicon Valley Into Trump's Arms” by Ross DouthatThe Furies by Arno J.

The Utah governor is trying to model a different kind of leadership in a very dangerous political moment.The Trump administration seems intent on using the assassination of Charlie Kirk to crack down on what it calls “the radical left.” But Spencer Cox doesn't believe that suppression will make Americans safer.For years now, Cox has been thinking seriously about our toxic political culture and what the path out of it could be. So I wanted to have him on the show to talk about how he responded in the hours and days after the shooting, what it has left him thinking about and what he thinks we should do now.Mentioned:Politics and Social Change LabBook Recommendations:Our Biggest Fight by Frank H.

Trump was losing in the courts. He's not anymore.In the early months of the administration, the courts were proving a powerful check on President Trump, blocking many of his boldest actions. But those were the lower courts. In the past few months, the Supreme Court has weighed in, and it has handed Trump win after win after win.So what do these decisions enable the president to do? And why is the Supreme Court giving Trump what he wants?To pull all this apart, I'm joined by Kate Shaw. She is a former Supreme Court law clerk, a professor at the University of Pennsylvania Carey Law School and a host of the “Strict Scrutiny” podcast.Note: This episode was recorded on Aug. 21, before Trump announced his intention to fire Lisa Cook from the Federal Reserve Board of Governors and before Immigration and Customs Enforcement re-arrested Kilmar Armando Abrego Garcia and began processing him for deportation to Uganda.Mentioned:“Don't Believe Him” by Ezra Klein“This Is the Presidency John Roberts Has Built” by Peter M.

ICE now has the biggest budget of any law enforcement agency in America.“ICE and Customs and Border Protection have long been the most rogue, kind of renegade and certainly pro-Trump police agencies in the federal government,” explained Radley Balko, a journalist who's covered policing for decades. “What I think we are seeing right now is Trump is attempting to build his own paramilitary force. They want people whose first, ultimate loyalty in this job is going to be to the president.”Balko is the author of “Rise of the Warrior Cop: The Militarization of America's Police Forces.” And he's been tracking the changes at ICE and the Trump administration's escalating law-and-order tactics on his excellent newsletter, The Watch.Mentioned:“ICE's Mind-Bogglingly Massive Blank Check” by Caitlin Dickerson“The police militarization debate is over” by Radley BalkoBook Recommendations:The Highest Law in the Land by Jessica PishkoUnruly by David MitchellBottoms Up and the Devil Laughs by Kerry HowleyThoughts?

“Make America Healthy Again” is a great idea — somebody should try it.A lot of the concerns animating the MAHA movement — chronic disease, the unhealthiness of the American diet, how profits warp our health care system — are serious issues. But Robert F. Kennedy Jr. hasn't taken major actions to address them. Instead he's gutted funding for scientific research, including nearly $500 million dedicated to mRNA vaccine development, throwing a huge amount of possibly lifesaving research in limbo.How did we get here? What are the politics that allowed Donald Trump to preside over Operation Warp Speed, the single most successful pandemic mitigation policy, and then turn around a few years later to appoint Kennedy to undo it all?My colleague David Wallace-Wells has done incredible reporting on how pandemic policies have shaped our politics, culture and society. Rachael Bedard is a physician and a writer who has been thinking deeply about what MAHA represents and where the movement could find common ground with its critics.Mentioned:“‘I Think He Is About to Destroy Vaccines in This Country'” by David Wallace-Wells“Why Calling RFK Jr. ‘Anti-Science' Misses the Point” by Rachael BedardBook Recommendations:Doppelganger by Naomi KleinThe End Doesn't Happen All at Once by Chi Rainer Bornfree and Ragini Tharoor SrinivasanPlagues Upon the Earth by Kyle HarperThe Making of the Atomic Bomb by Richard RhodesCalling the Shots by Jennifer ReichWave by Sonali DeraniyagalaThoughts?

I do my best to respond to your critiques of some of our recent episodes.We got an overwhelming response to my interviews with the Palestinian activist Mahmoud Khalil, the national conservativism theorist Yoram Hazony and the human rights lawyer Philippe Sands on whether Israel is committing genocide in Gaza. So in this subscriber-only Ask Me Anything I answer some of the biggest critiques we received, as well as other listener questions on the Democratic Party's political strategy, how the ideas in “Abundance” are rippling out in the world and the strange experience I had doing a Munk Debate.Thank you to everyone who sent in questions.

What is going on with the economy right now?There are a lot of mixed signals. President Trump slashed taxes, but he's also bringing in a lot of money through tariffs. Inflation is creeping up, but the stock market keeps rising. Eye-wateringly large investments are flowing to A.I., which could lead to an explosion of productivity but also mass job loss. And then Trump fired the head of the Bureau of Labor Statistics after a disappointing jobs report, raising concerns that the government's data on the economy might get shakier.Natasha Sarin is the president and a founder of the Budget Lab at Yale. She has been tracking these trends and modeling the potential economic effects of many of Trump's policies. I invited her on the show to walk through what she is thinking about the economy.Mentioned:“The Tariffs Kicked In. The Sky Didn't Fall.

In December 2023, when South Africa accused Israel of genocide before the International Court of Justice, I thought it was wrong to do so. Israel had been attacked. Its defense was legitimate. The blood was on Hamas's hands.But over the last year, I have watched a slew of organizations and scholars arrive at the view that whatever Israel's war on Gaza began as, its mass assault on Palestinian civilians fits the definition of genocidal violence. This is a view now held by Amnesty International, B'Tselem, Human Rights Watch, and the president of the International Association of Genocide Scholars, among many othersOne reason I have stayed away from the word genocide is that there is an imprecision at its heart. When people use the word genocide, I think they imagine something like the Holocaust: the attempted extermination of an entire people. But the legal definition of genocide encompasses much more than that.So what is a genocide? And is this one?Philippe Sands is a lawyer who's worked on a number of genocide cases. He is the author of, among other books, “East West Street,” about how the idea of genocide was developed and written into international law. He is the best possible guide to the hardest possible topic.Mentioned:“What the Inventor of the Word ‘Genocide' Might Have Said About Putin's War” by Philippe Sands“‘Only the Strong Survive.'

Mahmoud Khalil was a leader in Columbia University's pro-Palestinian protests. In March, he was arrested by ICE agents and held for more than 100 days in a Louisiana detention facility. The Trump administration claims Khalil is deportable — even though he has a green card, married to a U.S. citizen — because he poses a threat to U.S. foreign policy goals.Khalil's alleged offense here is speech.Khalil is out now on bail, and he's still speaking.

Vice President JD Vance gave a speech recently that deserved more attention than it got. Accepting an award at a right-wing think tank, he argued that there's a fundamental brokenness in how we define who is an American. He explained that this is the root of many of our country's problems: a national identity that has become too broad.That was also a core idea of the 2018 book “The Virtue of Nationalism,” which caused a sensation on the right. Its author, the Israeli political theorist Yoram Hazony, went on to build a movement. For years, he has hosted NatCon — short for National Conservatism — conferences. Those events have featured speakers like Marco Rubio, who is now the secretary of state, and Senator Josh Hawley. And one of the most reliable speakers, year after year, has been Vance.I wanted to talk to Hazony. What exactly is his argument, his worldview? And are the Trump administration's policies putting it into practice?Mentioned:JD Vance's speech at The Claremont InstituteBook Recommendations:The Demon in Democracy by Ryszard LegutkoThe Strategy of Denial by Elbridge ColbyIsrael and Civilization by Josh HammerThoughts?

Biden passed the most ambitious climate legislation in American history. Trump just shredded it. What does that mean for the future of renewable energy in America? Where does the climate movement go from here? And is it too late for us to avert climate catastrophe? To answer these questions, I invited onto the show two climate experts: Jesse Jenkins, who is a leading climate modeler and a professor at Princeton University, where he runs the Princeton ZERO Lab, and Jane Flegal, who is the executive director of the Blue Horizons Foundation and served on the Biden administration's climate policy team.We discuss how far Trump's policies have set us back, the lessons the climate movement should learn from this loss and what the next wave of climate politics may look like. Mentioned:“Impacts of the One Big Beautiful Bill On The US Energy Transition – Summary Report” by REPEAT Project“There's a Race to Power the Future.

The consensus that held American Jewry together for generations is breaking down. That consensus, roughly, was this: What is good for Israel is good for the Jews; anti-Zionism is a form of antisemitism; and there will someday soon be a two-state solution that reconciles Zionism and liberalism — or, at the very least, Israel is seeking such a solution.Every single component of that consensus has cracked. And as I've been talking to people from different walks of American Jewish life — politicians and rabbis and activists and analysts and journalists — what I realize is there is nothing coming in to replace it.Read the column here.Thoughts?

MAGA has been infighting over the Jeffrey Epstein files. And that's because the conspiracy theories around Epstein hit at the very core of MAGA's whole worldview.Today's episode looks closer at that worldview. Will Sommer has been tracking conspiracies for years now. He was a reporter at The Washington Post and is now at The Bulwark, and he's the author of “Trust the Plan: The Rise of QAnon and the Conspiracy That Unhinged America.”In this conversation, we discuss the rise of QAnon, Donald Trump's slippery relationship to the more conspiracy-minded factions of his base and how the intrigue around the Epstein files has challenged his credibility as an outsider taking on the “corrupt elites.”This episode contains strong language.Mentioned:“MAGA Is Tearing Itself Apart Over Jeffrey Epstein” by David FrenchP.R.R.I.

I have had a meditation practice for about 15 years now. I started hoping it would calm me down, and it has. But it's also made me more aware of the strangeness of my mind. Certain thoughts emerge seemingly out of nowhere. Many of them return again and again. Why? And what relationship should you have to your thoughts when you realize you're not the one controlling them?Mark Epstein is a psychiatrist and also a Buddhist. He's spent decades observing the mind through those two distinct traditions, and has written many books that helped build a bridge between them, from his 1995 landmark book, “Thoughts Without a Thinker,” to his latest work, “The Zen of Therapy.” So I thought it would be interesting to talk to him about what he's learned about the mind after all these decades of observing it.Mentioned:Open to Desire by Mark EpsteinBook Recommendations:John & Paul by Ian LeslieEssays After Eighty by Donald HallKairos by Jenny ErpenbeckThoughts?

Donald Trump and Zohran Mamdani are both proof of how the ability to capture attention is power. And the attention economy isn't reshaping just politics; it's also reshaping the actual economy: the crypto market, A.I. venture capital, and how people, especially Gen Z, are making career decisions. Kyla Scanlon has emerged as a leading theorist on the economics of attention and is herself a member of Gen Z. She is the author of the book “In This Economy?” and Kyla's Newsletter on Substack. I asked her on the show to walk us through her theory of the attention economy.This episode contains strong language.Mentioned:“Gen Z and the End of Predictable Progress” by Kyla Scanlon“‘We Are the Most Rejected Generation'” by David Brooks“A Divided Gen Z Is Crying for Mercy” by Rachel Janfaza“The Price of Nails Since 1695” by Daniel E.

President Trump's “big, beautiful bill” is a bad piece of legislation. It includes trillions of dollars in tax cuts that are very much tilted toward the rich, along with savage cuts to Medicaid, nutrition assistance and green energy.And on Tuesday, July 1, the Senate passed it in a 51-50 vote, with Vice President JD Vance as the tiebreaker.But bad policy only matters if people know about it, and a lot of people don't — partly because there are an overwhelming number of provisions, and partly because the Trump administration is already flooding the zone with so many other major policy fights.So I asked Matt Yglesias, the author of the Slow Boring newsletter, back on the show to go through what is in this bill and why it has been so hard to build momentum for pushback. We spoke on Thursday, June 26.Mentioned:“A List of Nearly Everything in the Senate G.O.P.

Zohran Mamdani created a new anti-establishment playbook — in his use of social video, his focus on affordability and his position on Israel.   His assumed victory in New York City's Democratic mayoral primary, trouncing the former governor Andrew Cuomo, was one of the biggest political upsets in years. And while the electorate in this case is pretty specific, I think it still points to some tectonic changes in Democratic politics.  My friend Chris Hayes, the host of MSNBC's “All In With Chris Hayes,” came on the show earlier this year to talk about his book “The Sirens' Call,” which is all about how social media and the new attention economy are shaping politics. So I wanted to bring him back for a sequel, to get “The Sirens' Call” take on Mamdani's victory, and Hayes's insights as a born-and-raised New Yorker, with a deep feel for both the city's politics and the broader Democratic Party.This episode contains strong language.Book Recommendations:The Name of the Rose by Umberto EcoTomorrow Is Yesterday by Hussein Agha and Robert MalleyMao's Last Revolution by Roderick MacFarquhar and Michael SchoenhalsThoughts?

For decades, Israel has wanted American support to bomb Iranian nuclear sites. But U.S. presidents, both Republican and Democrat, have resisted — until President Trump. So, what changed? And what are the likely consequences of that decision?Aaron David Miller is a senior fellow at the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace and a longtime diplomat in the region. He joins me to discuss recent events and how the latest attacks on Iran have changed the balance of power in the Middle East.This episode contains strong language.Book Recommendations:Master of the Game by Martin IndykThe Man Who Ran Washington by Peter Baker and Susan GlasserTomorrow Is Yesterday by Hussein Agha and Robert MalleyThoughts?

President Trump's actions against transgender Americans have been stunningly wide-ranging. They've also been popular.Trump has sought new restrictions on trans people in sports, schools, the military, prisons and medical care, and in government documentation. And a recent poll found that a majority of Americans approve of how Mr. Trump is handling trans issues — far above how he is handling his presidency generally. On trans-related issues, Americans' opinions have moved right since 2022. What led the trans-rights movement to suffer not just a major electoral loss, but also a sweeping loss of public support?Sarah McBride is a freshman congresswoman from Delaware, where she was previously a state senator. And she is the first openly transgender member of Congress. In our conversation, Representative McBride reckons with the trans rights movement's shortcomings, what liberalism should look like in a profoundly illiberal time and how to win hearts and minds through a politics of “grace.” It's the most stirring defense of the practice of politics — with all its compromises and disappointments and frustrations — I've heard in some time.This episode contains strong language.Book Recommendations:Team of Rivals by Doris Kearns GoodwinThese Truths by Jill LeporeThe Final Days by Bob Woodward and Carl BernsteinThoughts?

It is impossible to overstate how hellish life in Gaza has been for the past 20 months.The death count is above 50,000 people — more than 15,000 of whom are children — and at least 1.9 million of Gaza's 2.1 million people have been displaced over and over again. Starvation is rampant. Hospitals are either damaged or closed; there are only 2,000 remaining hospital beds.Nearly two years after the atrocities of Oct. 7, Israel still has no plan for the day after the conflict ends. Instead, it is escalating its assault on what remains of Hamas and seizing territory to expand its security buffer zone. There are reports that the government is considering a plan that would herd the Gaza Strip's Palestinians into just a small fraction of the territory. In the West Bank, meanwhile, settler violence has increased sharply, and new settlements are moving forward at a record pace.Ehud Olmert, the prime minister of Israel from 2006 to 2009, recently published a searing opinion essay in Haaretz, one of Israel's most influential newspapers: “Enough Is Enough. Israel Is Committing War Crimes.” He joins me to discuss why he believes Israel's war in Gaza can no longer be justified, what he finds missing in Israel's current political leadership and why he has not yet given up hope for a two-state solution.Book Recommendations:The Gates of Gaza by Amir TibonThomas Jefferson by Jon MeachamAll or Nothing by Michael WolffWait Till Next Year by Doris Kearns GoodwinThoughts?
