Iran and the United States have been adversaries for decades. But caught in the middle are the 92 million Iranians with "90 million opinions" on their government, foreign intervention, and state of their society. In this episode of "Values & Interests," Neda Bolourchi, senior non-resident fellow at the Institute for Global Affairs at Eurasia Group, draws on history and personal values to explore competing visions of change in Iran, the enduring strength of the current regime, and the realities that often get lost in debates about intervention and national sovereignty.

(8) Bob Zimmerman concludes by revisiting the Apollo 1 catastrophe, where three astronauts died due to "hubris" and careless engineering on the launchpad. This failure forced NASA to adopt total honesty, resulting in critical safety redesigns like the new hatch and atmosphere. Simultaneously, the Soviet program suffered its own tragedy with the death of cosmonaut Komarov during Soyuz 1's re-entry. These setbacks forced both nations to slow their pace and prioritize rigorous testing. The guest notes that without these disasters, a moon landing might have occurred in 1967, but the resulting caution ultimately shaped the success of Apollo 8.

This episode explores Apollo, the Muses, Memory, and Helichrysum—where mythology, culture, and aromatherapy meet.As the season turns from Artemis to Apollo, I look at what happens when the young yang aspects of the psyche mature into clarity, direction, and mastery — and what collapses when that masculine principle forgets its lineage. We explore the Muses as channels of collective memory, Mnemosyne as the river that keeps hubris in check, and Apollo Musagetes as the conductor who can only function when he's in right relationship with them.I talk about the Duchamp exhibit at MoMA and the cultural drift into “look culture,” drawing on Sophie Gilbert's Girl on Girl and the long shadow of the AIDS crisis — how desire moved into the visual realm and left us with a disembodied gaze. We trace how this shift severed Apollo from the Muses, leaving us with spectacle instead of depth, performance instead of relationship.And then we return to the body — to aromatherapy as an embodied antidote. To the intelligence of aromatic molecules and their direct line to memory, emotion, and meaning. This leads us to Helichrysum — Immortelle — a plant of memory and deep healing. A plant that cools swollen yang, steadies drifting yin, and reminds us that creation is never ours alone.If you're drawn to myth, memory, culture, and the living intelligence of aromatic plants, this episode will meet you where you are.Access the companion article here.

As the war with Iran grinds on without clear objectives or an exit strategy, Jon is joined by Ben Rhodes, national security analyst and author of the upcoming book "All We Say.” Together, they assess the current state of the war and its regional fallout, examine how American foreign policy has shaped both the world and our politics since 9/11, and consider what a fundamentally different approach to foreign policy could achieve. Plus, Jon takes listener questions on betting, 86-ing, and pumping gas!

Stijn Schmitz welcomes Luke Gromen to the show. Luke Gromen is President and Founder of Forest For The Trees. Luke explores unprecedented global economic and geopolitical shifts, focusing on massive commodity supply disruptions and transforming monetary systems. He highlights several critical trends: the largest commodity supply flow disruption in history, unprecedented levels of globalization, sovereign debt, and market valuations. He argues that current global tensions, particularly around the Strait of Hormuz, could trigger significant economic challenges. The potential closure of strategic maritime routes could lead to dramatic supply chain breakdowns, potentially causing localized famines and massive economic disruptions. Gromen suggests that while the US dollar will remain widely used, it will no longer be the primary wealth storage mechanism. China is strategically positioning itself by establishing yuan-gold settlement systems and offshore clearing banks, effectively creating a multi-currency framework with gold as the pivotal settlement asset. Geographically, Gromen sees varied outcomes for different regions. He believes the United States has geographical advantages but warns against urban living during this transition. Europe appears most vulnerable, while Asian countries like China, Japan, and South Korea are potentially well-positioned to benefit from these shifts, particularly given their engineering capabilities and demographic dynamics. Regarding commodities, Gromen anticipates a generational trend favoring strategic metals like copper, silver, nickel, rare earths, and uranium. He predicts that future commodity trades will increasingly require value-for-value exchanges, moving away from paper-based transactions. The underlying theme is a fundamental restructuring of global economic systems, driven by supply chain fragilities, geopolitical tensions, and the need for more resilient, productivity-focused economic models. Gromen suggests this transition will likely involve significant inflation and economic recalibration, with gold playing a central role in the emerging monetary landscape.

Continuamos con nuestra nueva sección que como ya iréis escuchando corresponde a una parte más en concreto de este vasto Universo del Warhammer 40k. El recorrido de uno de los inquisidores con más notoriedad de todo el 41 milenio. En este episodio de Los Archivos del Ordo Xeno, abrimos un registro que no encaja en los moldes habituales de Warhammer 40.000. Aquí no encontrarás épica ni héroes de romantasy. Hay silencio, grietas y decisiones que dejan una marca imposible de quitar. A través de una historia alejada de los tropos más reconocibles del universo 40K, nos adentramos en un relato más humano, más incómodo y más cercano al horror cotidiano que sostiene al Imperio desde dentro. Este programa es también especial por el trabajo colectivo que lo hace posible. La producción y el montaje sonoro, a cargo de Antonio Lobo Salinas, alcanzan aquí un nivel especialmente inmersivo, construyendo un espacio denso y opresivo que envuelve cada escena. A ello se suman las voces de Apolo, Eremita, Sergi, Américo y Cadabre, que sostienen el tono y el ritmo del relato con enorme precisión. Cerramos el archivo con una señal llegada desde los márgenes: ATREXIAL, banda de metal extremo surgida en Barcelona, y su tema SOUVERAIN, que funciona no como acompañamiento, sino como eco final del programa. Una mención especial para Harald K. Belegurth, bajista de la banda y seguidor del proyecto. Este episodio es una declaración de intenciones: recordar por qué hacemos las cosas como las hacemos, cuidar a quienes caminan a nuestro lado y no dejar que estos trabajos queden en el olvido. Todo esto de la mano de un cuervo muy singular, ElCorintio, y de sus Cuervos de la Tormenta: Antonio Lobo Solís, Varghar, LadyOdio, Rosa, Viktoria, Rantrix y muchos compañeros más que sobrevuelan el vórtice espacio-temporal desde el que nos llegan las historias que luego graznamos en esta vuestra Torre del Cuervo.

www.commsolutionsmn.com-  It's no secret that there is no shortage of problems with Congress. Andrew proposes the Richter Plan to try to fix the House of Representatives by preventing gerrymandering and making districts more equitable by moving representatives closer to their people. He also proposes returning the senate back to it's original method of elections. We've been watching the United States put on a master class on how to win a war over in Iran. This isn't so cut and dried, and we're conflicted too. We're generally anti-war here (as is the President) but we know that Iran is an evil empire. They kill protesters, Christians, and anyone else that violates the Qu'ran. Iran is filled with those that demand shariah law and want to spread it everywhere. Worse yet, they are filled with "Twelvers", that are waiting for the 12th mahdi to climb out of the well and bring about the end times, and they are looking to cover the world in chaos to bring him out. This is why Iran is so adamant about getting a nuclear weapon. We have pretty much destroyed their capabilities to fight back or defend themselves, but Iran (predictably) acts like they are willing to negotiate and then they stall. They have nothing to stand on, yet they redfuse to fold. What is going to bring an end to this conflict? What does victory look like? We try to get to the bottom of it. Join the discussion!

Caleb Drahosh Kings and rulers of this earth go to great lengths to glorify themselves. King Ahasuerus of Persia was no different. In his excessive feasting and celebration of self, Ahasuerus calls for his queen, Vashti, who refuses. Fearing kingdom insubordination, the king relieves her of her role as queen. Ahasuerus now seeks a new queen. Esther, the niece of Mordecai, a Jew, is chosen.

Midland Evangelical Free Church Sermon Audio Midland, MI

The Eric Swalwell scandal is not just about one disgraced member of Congress. It is about a culture of protection on Capitol Hill, a media ecosystem that sits on damaging information, and a federal bureaucracy that demands trust while operating behind closed doors. In this episode of The P.A.S. Report, Congress, the media, and the bureaucracy are exposed as institutions that protect insiders until silence becomes politically impossible. The episode breaks down why the silence lasted so long, why Democrats moved when they did, and why every American should be skeptical of the sudden outrage now pouring out of Washington. What You Will Learn: Why the Swalwell scandal says more about Congress than it does about one member  How media outlets act as gatekeepers and release information only when it becomes politically useful  Why Democrats turned on Swalwell now and what it reveals about power in Washington  How the Fang Fang episode raises deeper questions about judgment, vulnerability, and national security  Why the FBI and political leadership owe the public real answers, not sanitized talking points

Description: In this episode of Kilowatt, Bodie dives into a whirlwind of EV news, starting with the surprising pivot of the Sony-Honda joint venture away from EV production and toward AI assistants. We explore the shifting market dynamics in the UK, where EV prices have officially dipped below those of gas cars, and examine Ford CEO Jim Farley's warnings about the "existential threat" of Chinese automakers. The episode also covers Slate Auto's massive funding round for its modular electric pickup and the growing controversy surrounding Donut Lab's solid-state battery claims. Finally, we look at Tesla's latest Spring Update and the legal stir caused by FSD trials in the Netherlands for Hardware 3 owners. It's an action-packed look at the friction between legacy auto and the next generation of tech.

Please join us at patreon.com/tortoiseshack In this Reboot Republic podcast, Rory and Tony discuss the costs of Trump's war - Israel's ongoing attacks on Lebanon, the fuel protests, the need for societal solidarity and how they reflect a deep distress amongst people struggling with the cost of living and where this is all headed. They draw the parallel between government arrogance and lack of compassion on Homelessness and evictions, which are at record levels, to their dismissive response to the scenes on our streets.

***Apologies for the audio issues***Let's dive into the evolution of cinematic surveillance by comparing Francis Ford Coppola's masterpiece The Conversation (1974) with the high-stakes thriller Relay (2024). We look at how the analog paranoia of Harry Caul's world finds its modern echo in today's digital era of middlemen and encrypted secrets. We talk about whether the classic "lonely professional" trope holds up when updated for a world where everyone is always connected yet perpetually watched.

Mainstream narratives claim progress in the Iran war—but the reality may be far different. Joined by Jack Maxey, we break down the growing gap between official statements and open-source reporting, rising casualties, and the escalating intensity of the conflict.From questions about Israel's air defenses to the expanding role of regional actors like the Houthis, this war is revealing cracks in assumptions long treated as unquestionable. Meanwhile, Americans are once again left in the dark—without clear casualty counts, honest reporting, or constitutional accountability.At what point do we confront the deeper issue: a pattern of undeclared wars driven by executive power rather than the will of the people?This is not just about foreign policy—it's about truth, accountability, and the cost of unchecked authority.SPONSOR:My Gold Guy - https://mygoldguy.com/twomikes

An F-15E is down in southern Iran. Justin, Tony, Eric and I talk through what combat search and rescue actually looks like, how a captured pilot changes the politics of ending this war, and why a hostage makes the "pack up and go home" play functionally impossible. Then: the AWACS that "only" lost a third of itself on a Saudi tarmac, why CENTCOM is still parking high-value aircraft like it's 2003, and what Operation Spiderweb and three years of Ukrainian drone warfare should have taught us but didn't. Plus Pete Hegseth's ongoing purge of the officer corps, the Enron theory of Pentagon innovation, and why the War of 1812 is the best analogy for where this is all heading.

After reviewing the media reporting and comments by governments about the war with Iran, we and our guest Jack Maxey can only suggest that the consensus appears to be that, while there are a variety of positive reports from officials in Washington and even a few in the mainstream media, the open-source reporting available increasingly seems to be misleading. Needless to say, Americans are not watching anything that looks like near-term victory, and are being given no accurate reports on the number of American military and intelligence personnel that have been killed or wounded in this extremely violent war. And, of course, Americans are still waiting for the first accurate report on the current total of U.S. casualties that have occurred in Ukraine war. Odd that this task has been performed by the same Iranians who the Israelis never tire of describing as inferior people or animals. It must be imagined that the arrogant and all-knowing Israelis are more than a bit surprised that Iran-made, highly sophisticated missiles are piling up civilian casualties, and breaking up Israel's cities, military facilities, accommodations for nuclear scientists, military cohesion, the facilities for producing nuclear weapons, and dozens of other vital facilities that will leave Israel – if it survives – with a nightmarish period of body recovery, reconstruction, and political unrest. Once our War-Lords are decisively neutered by the reapplication of law, and Congress's sole constitutional power to declare war is cemented back into place, these 500-plus cowards will be forced to man-up and begin to exercise their clear and sole responsibility on the issue of starting wars. On that issue, voters must make it clear – possibly via nationwide referendum -- that no American life can be expended simply because all of the Congress, the president, and the corps of U.S. flag officers are willing to sacrifice the lives of America's young by fighting for countries that long have suborned the U.S. Congress, generals, presidents, media leaders, large religious groups, and U.S. based, but foreign-controlled, treasonous organizations that lobby and bribe generals, politicians, businessmen, and media in favor one specific foreign nation. In sum, such countries, as well as alliances like NATO, are only interested in receiving American funding and seeing its young service men and women used to die to protect their interests, perhaps even their existence. There is not one nation on the face of this earth that even remotely merits the performance of such a task by the U.S. citizens who form the U.S. military.

Through eyewitness accounts and visits to the sites of intense urban combat, they reconstruct how Russia's most elite units—the GRU-trained Spetsnaz and the VDV Airborne—faced fierce resistance that derailed the Kremlin's "two-day" victory plan.   This episode features: • The Siege of School 134: A detailed look at the 13-hour gun battle in Kharkiv where dozens of elite Spetsnaz soldiers made a final, hubristic stand before the building was destroyed by a gas explosion.   • The Battle for Hostomel (Antonov) Airport: The strategic "linchpin" operation involving helicopter assaults and a desperate back-and-forth struggle for the gateway to Kyiv.   • The Human Cost in Bucha: A somber visit to the Bucha cemetery, where the rows of civilian victims bear witness to the 32-day Russian occupation.   Join Saul and Julius as they explore the "battlefield detritus" and the layers of history in a region still caught between recovery and the ongoing realities of war.   Julius Strauss writes the blog Back from the Front and also owns and runs Wild Bear Lodge, a bear-viewing lodge, in Canada.

Prince Andrew's 2019 interview with BBC Newsnight was intended to address the mounting controversy surrounding his relationship with Jeffrey Epstein, but it quickly became one of the most disastrous public relations moments in modern royal history. During the interview with Emily Maitlis, Andrew attempted to explain why he had remained friends with Epstein even after Epstein's 2008 conviction. Rather than distancing himself from the disgraced financier, Andrew described the relationship as a mistake but appeared to minimize the seriousness of Epstein's crimes. The interview also addressed allegations made by Virginia Giuffre, which Andrew categorically denied. Instead of quelling public concern, the interview drew widespread criticism for what many viewed as evasive answers, a lack of empathy toward Epstein's victims, and explanations that strained credibility.Several specific claims made by Andrew during the interview intensified the backlash. He asserted he had no memory of ever meeting Giuffre despite photographic evidence showing them together and suggested the photo might have been fabricated. He also offered unusual explanations—such as saying a medical condition prevented him from sweating—to challenge Giuffre's account of events. The tone of the interview, along with Andrew's continued defense of his decision to visit Epstein after the financier's conviction, was widely viewed as tone-deaf and damaging. The fallout was immediate: within days, Andrew stepped back from all public royal duties amid growing pressure from the public, media, and political figures. What had been intended as a chance to repair his reputation instead became a defining moment that cemented the perception that the scandal surrounding Epstein had permanently engulfed him.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

2. The debate continues with a comparison of Emperor Trump to Nero and Claudius, questioning if his current crisis is a result of bad luck or hubris. While Claudius favored low-risk, calculated campaigns, Trump's offensive is characterized as a "rash and incalculably risky gambit" that mirrors strategic failures in Ukraine. This conflict has solidified the Russia-Chinabond and left Israel "naked and exposed" due to US failures. Germanicus argues that the US ignored the "weak points" of its own coalition, turning Gulf State bases into liabilities rather than security assets. Likening Trump's overconfidence to Hitler's before the invasion of Russia, the speakers suggest that the US has "got suckered" into a war it cannot win through air power alone. They conclude that the only rational path is to accept defeat and reorganize, as the Romans did when facing superior Persian cavalry. (2)1680 CONSTANTINOPLE

“Hubris, Kate. He suffers from hubris!” We're on the cusp of spring, so full credit to Eric Carpenter for pointing out to us how egregious a gap we've had in our roster until now. Have we really and truly never done that spring book to beat all spring books Muncha Muncha Muncha??? Such a thing seems inconceivable and yet… here we are. Today Kate and Betsy discuss bunnies, munching, and the role that illustration plays when our own personal preferences come into it all. Candace Fleming's been having a stellar year (becoming the first person to receive the Children's Literature Legacy Award and the Margaret A. Edwards Award in the same year, in addition to her book Death in the Jungle winning the Award for Excellence in Nonfiction for Young Adults). Now she faces the ultimate challenge: Whether or not her picture book from 2002 is actually a classic.

Scott Anderson is a veteran foreign reporter and war correspondent, and a contributing writer for The New York Times. Over his career he has reported from Bosnia, Libya, Palestine and across the Middle East. In this episode, he spoke to host Hannah Lucinda Smith about his new book, King of Kings, a gripping account of the fall of the Shah of Iran, the 1979 Iranian Revolution and the rise of the Islamic Republic. Together, they explore the flaws that led to the Shah's downfall, and why Western powers fundamentally misunderstood what was happening in the country in the months before the revolution. They also examine how these events shaped Iran and the Middle East today, and the political future of a country whose power has been diminished in the region, but whose population is again rallying around the flag in response to external aggression. --- If you'd like to become a Member and get access to all our full ad free conversations, plus all of our Members-only content, just visit intelligencesquared.com/membership to find out more.

“Grief happens because you don't stop loving the person who died. The person doesn't exist in your reality anymore. The everyday is not colored and shaped by this other human being, but you don't stop loving the person. So grief is a particular kind of unrequited love. And probably without that dynamic relationship with this person, I would be someone else. And he would've been someone else. I mean, Paul died before me. But we were, I think, hugely important to the drama of becoming in our own lives.”Today, we are honored to welcome a writer whose work has long explored the intimate landscapes of the mind, memory and the heart. Siri Hustvedt's writing moves between the personal and the philosophical, the literary and the deeply human. Her work bridges collections of essays, non-fiction, poetry, and seven novels, including the international bestsellers What I Loved and The Summer Without Men. Recipient of the Princess of Asturias Award for Literature and the Gabarron Prize for Thought, her work has been translated into over thirty languages. Her new memoir, Ghost Stories, is a reflection on forty-three years shared with her late husband, the writer and filmmaker Paul Auster. In its pages, we encounter not only love and loss, but the quiet persistence of presence, memory, and language itself.(0:00) Grief as Unrequited LoveSiri explores the emotional reality of living without Paul Auster, noting that grief occurs because love does not stop when a person dies.(4:00) Facing Death with CourageThe importance of not hiding from mortality and how discussing end-of-life wishes offered a necessary perspective.(12:37) Reading from Ghost StoriesSiri reads the opening passage of her memoir, detailing how the loss of her husband deranged her sense of time and bodily rhythms.(18:41) The Phantom Limb: ” The beloved is taken away and it feels as if you're amputated or gutted.”(21:50)  Grandfather, Father and Son: Generational Traumas Behind Paul Auster's Writing(24:11)  How Powerful Emotions and a Person's Life Can Play a Role in Illness(30:09) Feeding the Earth "Paul very pointedly told me that he wanted to be buried in the Jewish mode. And the phrase he used was, “I want my body to feed the earth.”(44:23) Physical Love in MarriageOn the importance of physical intimacy in long-term marriages, a reality often left out of grief memoirs.(54:00) The Philosophy of the BetweenHow relational existence is foundational to life.(1:00:16) The Hubris of Controlling Nature(1:12:00) The Dark History of Statistics(1:32:12) The Art of Learning vs. AI and Automated Outcomes“I think we have to ask ourselves, what is education?

SEGMENT 15: GREAT POWERS VERSUS SMALL STATES IN STRATEGIC THINKING Guest: Gregory Copley Copley contrasts how great powers often act impulsively while smaller states analyze carefully before moving. Discussion examines the hubris of major nations shooting from the hip on foreign policy, the advantages smaller countries gain through meticulous strategic calculation, and lessons for American policymakers in an increasingly complex world.
