In this episode, Nicole and Diana chat with guest Linda Broenniman. Linda, who grew up in Buffalo, New York, is the middle child of seven born to Hungarian physicians who survived World War II. She holds a BA in psychology from Swarthmore College and an MBA from Carnegie Mellon. Linda is also a Wilbur Award recipient and a GenerationsForward speaker for the Holocaust & Human Rights Education Center.  Linda shares her remarkable journey of uncovering hidden family secrets that date back eight generations, including her father's Jewish identity, which was kept secret due to the trauma of World War II and the antisemitism of the time. She discusses the courage of her parents in creating a new life in the U.S. and the incredible story of her mother saving numerous people during the Holocaust, leading to her recognition as Righteous Among the Nations by the Israeli government. Linda also talks about the challenges of uncovering these secrets, the impact of keeping such secrets, and the profound importance of learning about one's ancestry. Listeners will learn about Linda's genealogical discoveries, the complexities of family history, and the healing power of understanding one's roots.

From the United States to China and from Brazil to India, an authoritarian approach to news is spreading across the world. Increasingly, the media is no longer a check on power or a source of objective information but a means by which governments and leaders can propagate their versions of reality, however biased or false. In Dictating Reality: The Global Battle to Control the News (Columbia UP, 2025), Dr. Martin Moore and Dr. Thomas Colley show how states are battling to control and shape the news in order to entrench their power, evade scrutiny, and ensure that their political narratives are accepted. Combining in-depth analyses of seven countries with a compelling range of stories and characters from around the world, they demonstrate the unprecedented scale and scope of governments' efforts to take control of the media. Dictating Reality details how Xi's China, Putin's Russia, Modi's India, AMLO's Mexico, Bolsonaro's Brazil, and Orban's Hungary have all sought, in their different ways, to exploit news to manufacture alternative realities—and how their methods have taken hold in the United States, the United Kingdom, and other democracies. Combining keen analysis of contemporary world events with years of original research, this book is essential reading for anyone who wants to understand how authoritarian leaders use the media, why more and more people are living in different realities, and the ways democracy is under threat. This interview was conducted by Dr. Miranda Melcher whose book focuses on post-conflict military integration, understanding treaty negotiation and implementation in civil war contexts, with qualitative analysis of the Angolan and Mozambican civil wars.

The Final legs of the World Aquatics Swimming World Cup 2025 in Toronto saw a gluten of new Short Course World Records and the Propulsion Swimming Podcast are here to discuss all. The meet was highlighted by two major barriers being broken for the first time in history: the women's 100m freestyle and the men's 200m breaststroke.On the women's side, Kate Douglass of the USA made history by becoming the first woman to ever swim the 100m freestyle in under 50 seconds, clocking a stunning new world record of 49.93. The Australian women also dominated. Lani Pallister crushed the 800m freestyle record with a time of 7:54.00, taking more than three seconds off the previous mark. Her compatriots Kaylee McKeown and Mollie O'Callaghan both lowered their own recent world records; McKeown in the 200m backstroke (1:57.33) and O'Callaghan in the 200m freestyle (1:49.36).For the men, Caspar Corbeau of the Netherlands achieved a monumental feat, becoming the first man to break the two-minute barrier in the 200m breaststroke with a new world record of 1:59.52. Hubert Kos of Hungary was another standout, setting two world records over the weekend: one in the 200m backstroke (1:45.12) and another in the 100m backstroke (48.16). Finally, Josh Liendo gave the home crowd a thrill by setting a new world record in the 100m butterfly with a time of 47.68.

Today we will talk a lot about Matthias Corvinus, the legendary renaissance king of Hungary whose library outshone that of the Medici in Florence and whose standing army was one of the greatest – and most expensive - military forces in 15th century Europe. Why are we talking about a Hungarian ruler in a series about the Habsburgs? Trust me, there is a good reason beyond it being a fascinating life story.The music for the show is Flute Sonata in E-flat major, H.545 by Carl Phillip Emmanuel Bach (or some claim it as BWV 1031 Johann Sebastian Bach) performed and arranged by Michel Rondeau under Common Creative Licence 3.0.As always:Homepage with maps, photos, transcripts and blog: www.historyofthegermans.comIf you wish to support the show go to: Support • History of the Germans PodcastFacebook: @HOTGPod Threads: @history_of_the_germans_podcastBluesky: @hotgpod.bsky.socialInstagram: history_of_the_germansTwitter: @germanshistoryTo make it easier for you to share the podcast, I have created separate playlists for some of the seasons that are set up as individual podcasts. they have the exact same episodes as in the History of the Germans, but they may be a helpful device for those who want to concentrate on only one season.

As many tourists and foreign residents have discovered, Slovakia is much more than its charming capital, Bratislava. From villages adorned with mysterious folk symbols to castles perched above deep valleys and trails leading into the rocky heights of Slovakia's many majestic mountains, the country is full of hidden gems. For those curious to explore beyond Slovakia's well-known destinations, we present our travel series called Country Roads. In this second episode, we journey to Muránska Planina National Park in central Slovakia. Here, we uncover the unique flora, fauna, and geology that make this relatively new national park so special. We also delve into the region's fascinating history and culture—once known as “the iron heart of Hungary.” Along the way, you'll get practical travel tips, discover how Slovak literature can enrich your trip, and even learn how feeding a ground squirrel might just make your adventure unforgettable.

Show Notes:In this profound episode of The Human Experience, host Jennifer Peterkin and guest interviewer Linda explore the extraordinary story of a woman whose Hungarian refugee parents survived World War II and the Holocaust. The guest recounts the shocking discovery of her hidden Jewish heritage within a family that had long believed they were Catholic. Through years of research, recovered letters, and family documents, she uncovers her mother’s recognition as “Righteous Among the Nations” and her father’s harrowing survival in Nazi labor camps. This conversation weaves together personal storytelling and historical truth, illuminating the weight of inherited trauma, the courage to confront silence, and the power of remembrance. Linda’s journey serves as a moving reminder that uncovering our histories—no matter how painful—connects us to our humanity and shapes the stories we pass forward. ⚠️ Content Warning: This episode contains discussions of war, genocide, and trauma related to the Holocaust. Listener discretion is strongly advised. Key Takeaways:● Exploration of personal and family identity across generations.● The guest’s discovery of hidden Jewish roots within a family who believed they were Catholic.● Her mother’s recognition as Righteous Among the Nations for protecting Jews during the Holocaust.● Her father’s survival through Nazi labor camps and the brutal conditions of Auschwitz.● The discovery of family documents and how they revealed a hidden legacy.● Insights into Hungarian Jewish experiences during World War II.● The importance of preserving memory and confronting silence among survivors.● The enduring impact of repression and trauma on post-war identity.● The guest’s efforts to educate others through The Politzer Saga book and museum exhibition.● A call to listeners to uncover and share their own family stories of resilience and truth. Interview recorded in Great Falls, Virginia.     Linda Ambrus Broenniman’s Bio:Linda Ambrus Broenniman grew up in Buffalo, New York, as the middle child of seven born to Catholic Hungarian physicians who survived World War II and began a new life in the United States in 1949. After earning her BA in Psychology from Swarthmore College and an MBA from Carnegie Mellon University, Linda left corporate America to pursue her passion for entrepreneurship, founding companies in technology and biotechnology. Her curiosity and drive to uncover hidden potential led her on a personal quest to uncover her own hidden family history. Through years of research, Linda pieced together the remarkable story of her Jewish ancestors—the Politzer family—and their lives lost to her father’s silence. Her book, The Politzer Saga, brings their stories to life and forms the foundation of The Politzer Saga Exhibit, a permanent exhibition housed in the newly renovated Rumbach Synagogue in Budapest, Hungary. Linda lives in Great Falls, Virginia with her husband, Ed, of 30 years.     Connect with Linda Ambrus Broenniman:

A podcast from Cornell University's Brooks School of Public Policy Center on Global Democracy About the Podcast Each week, co-hosts Rachel Beatty Riedl and Esam Boraey bring together leading scholars, policymakers, and practitioners to explore the challenges and possibilities facing democracy around the world. Produced by Cornell's Center on Global Democracy, Democratic Dialogues bridges academic research with real-world debates — from democratic backsliding and authoritarian resurgence to civic resistance, renewal, and reform. We look at new books, groundbreaking articles, and the ideas reshaping how we understand and practice democracy today. Listen on YouTube, NBN, or wherever you get your podcasts. Episode 1 Pathways of Democratic Backsliding, Resistance, and (Partial) Recoveries This week, we feature an episode with Kenneth Roberts, Jennifer McCoy, and Murat Somer, joining co-hosts Rachel Riedl and Esam Boraey to discuss their collaborative article, “Pathways of Democratic Backsliding, Resistance, and (Partial) Recoveries,” recently published in The Annals of the American Academy of Political and Social Science. Together, they unpack how democracies don't collapse overnight, but instead erode through different pathways — from executive aggrandizement to elite collusion — and how societies can resist or even partially recover. The conversation examines how these dynamics unfold in contexts as varied as Latin America, Turkey, Hungary, and the United States, and what practical lessons citizens and policymakers can draw today. This is an essential conversation for understanding how democracies falter, and how collective action, civic mobilization, and institutional renewal can push them back from the brink.

Stokes (University of Chicago) discussing her book The Backsliders: Why Leaders Undermine Their Own Democracies. Stay tuned for an in-depth conversation on why democratic leaders sometimes turn against the institutions that empower them — and what can be done to safeguard democracy in an era of uncertainty.

IG: PaulMuzichuk FB: Paul Muzichuk  www.tscjax.com; www.arisebiblicalcounseling.com   Moment of Reflection: Maria shared how she prayed specifically for her son's protection the night before their terrifying elopement incident. How important it is to pray for our children. Reflect: What are some specific things you can begin praying over your own child, your family, or even the families around you? How might God be leading you to intercede on someone else's behalf? Spend some time with those questions and then spend some time talking to God about it.

Episode 1 Pathways of Democratic Backsliding, Resistance, and (Partial) Recoveries This week, we feature an episode with Kenneth Roberts, Jennifer McCoy, and Murat Somer, joining co-hosts Rachel Riedl and Esam Boraey to discuss their collaborative article, “Pathways of Democratic Backsliding, Resistance, and (Partial) Recoveries,” recently published in The Annals of the American Academy of Political and Social Science. Together, they unpack how democracies don't collapse overnight, but instead erode through different pathways — from executive aggrandizement to elite collusion — and how societies can resist or even partially recover. The conversation examines how these dynamics unfold in contexts as varied as Latin America, Turkey, Hungary, and the United States, and what practical lessons citizens and policymakers can draw today. This is an essential conversation for understanding how democracies falter, and how collective action, civic mobilization, and institutional renewal can push them back from the brink.

20251027 - 05 Hungary Machine játék by Bochkor

In our podcast, Rachel Myrick, the Douglas & Ellen Lowey Associate Professor of Political Science at Duke University, discusses with us how extreme partisan polarization threatens not only domestic governance but also global stability. Drawing on her new book, Polarization and International Politics: How Extreme Partisanship Threatens Global Stability (Princeton University Press, 2025), Myrick argues that polarization in democracies affects foreign policymaking.The conversation begins with a striking example:each year, the political risk consultancy Eurasia Group publishes a list of the world's top geopolitical risks. The 2024 report placed as the highest risk not the Russian aggression, Middle Eastern conflict, but ‘the United States versus itself'. This diagnosis, Myrick suggests, encapsulates the central claim of her book: extreme party polarization erodes the institutional foundations that once made democracies stable and credible actors abroad. Throughout the podcast, the author unfolds how polarization affects the three pillars that democracies used to have in international relations: the ability to keep foreign policystable over time, to credibly signal information to adversaries and the reliability with partners in international politics. Then, the discussion moves to the ways in which polarization affects foreign policies. In a healthy democracy, leaders are incentivized to provide public goods and act in the national interest.Instead, in extremely polarized environments, politicians do not „target messaging at the median voter and instead work to mobilize their political base”. Voters increasingly view politics as a contest between moral enemies rather than legitimate rivals, caring more about their side's victorythan about performance or accountability. While the United States provides her primary example, Myrick points to similar patterns across Europe. In younger democracies such as Hungary or Poland, polarisation fuels “executive aggrandizement,” as ruling parties rewrite rules to secure permanent advantage.In established democracies, it simply makes governments less predictable partners internationally. Rachel Myrick ends the conversation with a warning: the greatest threat to international order may no longer come from authoritarian powers, but from democracies unable to govern themselves and to be effective partners.

Silicon Bites Ep261 - Day 1,338 - 2025-10-23 | In this episode we follow the fumes: fires and explosions at refineries in Hungary and Romania, rumors of an apparent accident in Slovakia, and what unites all three refineries – their handling of Russian crude oil. Also, fresh U.S. and U.K. sanctions on Russia's oil giants, pressure on India's bulk buys of Russian crude, and Europe's newest squeeze on the shadow — or “grey” — fleet.

Tommy and Ben discuss reports that Trump's meeting with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky was a disaster, and that his summit in Hungary with Russian President Vladimir Putin may be canceled. They also cover the administration's threats to punish Colombia and Venezuela, including authorization of the CIA to conduct covert action in Venezuela, and other warning signs that the administration is pushing for regime change. They also talk about the rapid return of violence in Gaza since the “peace deal” and right-wing calls for war to resume, Jared Kushner and Steve Witkoff's painful interview with 60 Minutes and the lack of a credible plan for Palestinian governance moving forward, an account from a member of the Freedom Flotilla detailing her detention by the IDF, and the story of a journalist who was attacked by settlers in the West Bank. Then they highlight Japan's first female prime minister and gruesome details published in a memoir by one of Jeffrey Epstein's victims. Finally, Tommy speaks to art theft investigator Anthony Amore about the stunning French crown jewel heist at the Louvre Museum in Paris.For a closed-captioned version of this episode, click here.

What do Stalin, Trump, and Viktor Orbán have in common? They're all fragile men terrified of truth, artists, and of anyone with a moral compass. In this week's Gaslit Nation, we talk with 91-year-old Peter Hidas, who as a young student helped ignite the 1956 Hungarian Uprising, a movement born of courage and faith in a better world. Peter's story is a testament to what ordinary people can do when they refuse to bow to tyranny. The revolts that shook the Iron Curtain in 1956 laid the groundwork for the movements that would one day bring down the Soviet empire, to the unforgettable soundtrack of Swan Lake played on repeat on Soviet TV by a collapsing regime. Today, a new generation of brave Russians has reclaimed that symbol: the “Swan Lake Collective” is being played by artists on the streets of Russia, creating a rallying cry “Let the swans dance!” for peace, freedom, and the end of Putin's Fox News–style dictatorship. Gaslit Nation is here to remind you that Putin's days are numbered.  This week's show also celebrates the heroes of the No Kings protests, the Gen Z meme pirates toppling corruption crime sprees pretending to be governments, how Trump and Putin might try to save Orban's doomed April 2026 election, and more.  So keep marching. Keep creating.That's how we win.  The song featured in this week's episode is “Election Day” by The Spiders.

Meet my friends, Clay Travis and Buck Sexton! If you love Verdict, the Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show might also be in your audio wheelhouse. Politics, news analysis, and some pop culture and comedy thrown in too. Here’s a sample episode recapping four Tuesday/Thursday takeaways. Give the guys a listen and then follow and subscribe wherever you get your podcasts. Trump is Feelin' It President Donald Trump’s high-stakes diplomacy, including his call with Vladimir Putin and efforts to broker peace between Russia and Ukraine. They analyze Trump’s strategy to pressure Russia by potentially supplying Ukraine with long-range weapons capable of striking inside Russian territory, and the economic leverage involving oil and gas markets. The conversation expands to Trump’s simultaneous trade showdown with China, highlighting looming 100% tariffs on Chinese goods and the global battle over rare earth minerals critical to modern technology. The hosts explore whether Trump can realistically achieve a ceasefire in Ukraine, the risks of escalation—including nuclear threats—and the role of frozen Russian assets in Europe as a potential game-changer. They also touch on U.S. defense production challenges, noting America’s limited capacity to ramp up weapons manufacturing compared to Russia’s reserves, and how winter conditions in Ukraine could stall battlefield advances and open a window for negotiations. Clean Up on Isle Amanpour A sharp critique of CNN’s Christiane Amanpour after her controversial claim that Israeli hostages were “treated better than the average Gazan.” Clay and Buck play the original clip and her subsequent apology, arguing that her first statement reveals the media’s bias toward Hamas narratives. They dismantle myths of “genocide” and “starvation” in Gaza, underscore Hamas’s use of civilians as human shields, and stress the moral clarity of Israel’s position in the conflict. The conversation pivots to major breaking news: President Donald Trump’s tweet summarizing his lengthy call with Vladimir Putin. Trump described the exchange as “very productive,” noting Putin congratulated him on Middle East peace efforts and agreed to high-level talks aimed at ending the Russia-Ukraine war. Clay and Buck analyze the geopolitical stakes, including Trump’s upcoming Oval Office meeting with President Zelensky, Secretary of State Marco Rubio’s role in negotiations, and Hungary as a potential summit location. Mamdani is Wrong About Everything New York City mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani and his Fox News interview with Martha MacCallum. Clay and Buck critique Mamdani’s evasive answers on whether Hamas should disarm, comparing his rhetorical style to Abigail Spanberger’s non-answers. They warn that Mamdani’s progressive proposals—such as rent freezes and city-run grocery stores—reflect economic illiteracy that worsens housing affordability and cost-of-living crises. The hosts draw parallels to California’s regulatory failures and Canada’s housing costs, arguing government overreach drives prices higher. Democrats Have Become a Slur President Donald Trump’s multi-hour call with Vladimir Putin, which Trump says will lead to high-level advisor meetings and a future summit in Budapest aimed at ending the Russia-Ukraine war. Clay and Buck examine Trump’s diplomatic momentum following the Gaza peace deal and discuss whether his approach could reshape global negotiations. The conversation shifts to domestic politics, spotlighting New York City mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani and his Fox News interview with Martha MacCallum. Mamdani refused to credit Trump for the Gaza peace agreement, calling it “too early,” and offered vague answers on Hamas disarmament. Clay and Buck critique Mamdani’s progressive agenda—tax hikes, rent freezes, and city-run grocery stores—arguing these policies would harm New York’s economy and worsen affordability. They also highlight Mamdani’s recent apology to police for past “defund” rhetoric, framing it as political damage control.
