If you visit Denmark in December, the first thing you notice is the season's softness. Winter comes early, and daylight is brief, so the Danes respond with warm lights, quiet streets, and homes that glow through the dark. It feels like the whole country leans into comfort when the cold settles in. Walking through a Danish town at this time of year, you see people moving at an easy pace, carrying small bags from local shops, and heading toward warm houses where family and friends gather. The season builds slowly. Homes begin placing small candles in windows. Trees outside town halls are lit with strings of white lights. Cafés bring out warm drinks and pastries that feel made for winter. The Danish idea of keeping things cozy stays at the center of it all. Nothing is rushed, and nothing feels forced. The whole month has the steady, welcoming rhythm that Denmark is known for. As December begins, families start preparing for Christmas in ways that seem simple at first but carry profound meaning. Children open Advent calendars. Parents unpack boxes of handmade ornaments. Town squares start setting up outdoor markets, where people meet friends for warm drinks while a light snow drifts through the air. Denmark feels peaceful, and the season unfolds in a way that makes visitors want to slow down and enjoy it with everyone else...

On January 25th 2026, Phil and Nina Hyldgaard will step into their new role as Lead Pastors of Hillsong Denmark

In this episode of Peak Human Labs, Dr. Sanjeev Goel sits down with Mike Radoor, an entrepreneur who rose from the ghettos of Denmark to become a multimillionaire by 30, only to lose everything in a decade-long spiral of addiction, ego, and self-deception. What followed was a collapse so deep that it forced Mike into the most important confrontation of his life: the moment he looked at a photo of his newborn daughter in an Ibiza hotel room and finally faced the man he had become. This conversation pulls you into Mike's raw journey through childhood trauma, misplaced identity, and the seductive chaos of fast money and faster dopamine hits. He exposes how the modern world manufactures weak, distracted men through what he calls the dopamine economy, a system engineered to keep men comfortable, addicted to alcohol, and disconnected from purpose. Mike doesn't just diagnose the crisis, he lays out a powerful blueprint for rebuilding. From radical self-confrontation to disciplined daily structure, from physical mastery to killing the “lower version” of yourself, Mike offers a roadmap for becoming a man rooted in strength, courage, integrity, and self-respect. If you've ever felt stuck, unmotivated, or haunted by the gap between who you are and who you know you could be, this episode is a wake-up call. It's a deep dive into masculine transformation, the power of truth, and what it takes to give 100%, every day, in every area of life.   Our Guest: Mike Radoor Mike Radoor is a high-performance mindset strategist, serial entrepreneur, and bestselling author. With over 15 years of experience building and scaling businesses, including co-founding Miinto and Playbook App, he now helps business leaders and high-achieving individuals break through self-limiting beliefs to unlock their full potential. Mike's book, Above Average: The Science of Achievement, explores how mindset and behavior drive extraordinary results. Through coaching and speaking, he empowers clients to enhance their performance, shift their mindset, and achieve sustainable success. Key Takeaways You can achieve extraordinary success and still feel worthless if your self-image is broken. Childhood stories and early trauma often shape self-worth into adulthood. Comfort is the greatest enemy of modern masculinity, society rewards softness and distraction. True transformation begins with radical self-confrontation, not motivation or positive thinking. Men must face their “lower self,” the version driven by lust, ego, avoidance, and addiction. Discipline is built through structure: early sleep, physical training, and removing temptations. Identity collapses often happen after major success because self-worth was tied to achievement. Stoicism, spiritual texts, and intentional solitude can reframe character and purpose. Physical mastery (strength, testosterone, daily discipline) is essential for male confidence. Real masculinity is strength + honor + respect, not aggression or domination.   In This Episode: [00:00] Introduction & podcast overview [01:38] Mike's early life in Denmark [02:54] Family struggles and childhood trauma [03:38] Developing a fighter's mindset [05:14] Isolation, bullying, and self-worth issues [06:46] Realization about self-image [07:40] Success, wealth, and identity crisis [09:03] Destructive behaviors and partying [11:16] The missing element of self-worth [13:11] Rock bottom and the turning point [15:07] Decision to change and early steps [16:34] Building new habits and self-confrontation [18:07] Wake-up call and facing the lower self [20:39] Discipline, masculinity, and physical standards [23:49] Rejecting alcohol and partying [24:30] Giving 110% and physical transformation [26:55] Why men are lost today [30:06] Masculinity, society, and gender roles [31:59] Toxic masculinity vs controlled strength [33:52] Rites of passage and modern weakness [35:28] How to connect with Mike Radoor [36:31] Closing remarks and takeaways   Resources and Links Resources and Links Peak Human Labs Website - https://www.peakhuman.ca/ LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/peakhuman/ YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/@peakhumanlabs/videos Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/peakhumanlabs/ Podbean - https://peakhumanlabs.podbean.com/   Dr. Sanjeev Goel LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/sanjeevgoelmd/?originalSubdomain=ca Website - https://www.linkedin.com/in/sanjeevgoelmd/   Mike Radoor https://www.instagram.com/mikeradoor/?hl=en https://www.linkedin.com/in/mikeradoor/?originalSubdomain=ae https://www.youtube.com/@realmikeradoor

SECOND HOUR 10-1015 Warnings Against a US-Saudi Nuclear Deal: Colleague Andrea Stricker warns against a US-Saudi nuclear deal that allows uranium enrichment, advocating for the "gold standard" of non-proliferation, arguing any agreement must include the Additional Protocol for inspections and ensure the US retains a right of return for nuclear materials. 1015-1030 Credit Card Interest Rate Caps Would Harm Low-Income Borrowers: Colleague Veronique de Rugy criticizes proposals by Senators Sanders and Ocasio-Cortez to cap credit card interest rates at 10 percent, arguing price controls will force companies to reduce risk, ultimately denying credit to the low-income borrowers the bill aims to protect. 1030-1045 1045-1100 American Universities Have Abandoned Liberal Education: Colleague Peter Berkowitz argues that American universities have abandoned liberal education, replacing the study of Western civilization with narrow specialization and political agendas, lamenting that students are no longer taught about historical heroes or the realities of the Revolutionary War, depriving them of national identity. THIRD HOUR 1100-1115 James I, Mary Queen of Scots, and the English Succession: Colleague Clare Jackson explains how James I managed the tension between his imprisoned mother, Mary Queen of Scots, and Queen Elizabeth I, noting James protested his mother's execution but prioritized his claim to the English throne, maintaining a complex correspondence with Elizabeth to ensure his succession. 1115-1130 James I's Sea Voyage to Denmark and Dynastic Tragedies: Colleague Clare Jackson details James I's decision to travel by sea to marry Anna of Denmark, viewing it as a dynastic duty despite the risks, also discussing the death of his heir Prince Henry and his daughter's involvement in the conflicts sparking the Thirty Years' War. 1130-1145 James I's Male Favorites and the Madrid Adventure: Colleague Clare Jackson explores James I's intense relationships with male favorites like Robert Carr and George Villiers, noting the political complications these caused, describing the bizarre, risky journey Prince Charles and Villiers took to Madrid in disguise to woo the Spanish Infanta. 1145-1200 James I, American Colonies, and Tobacco Revenue: Colleague Clare Jackson discusses James I's oversight of American colonies like Jamestown, using chartered companies for deniability against Spanish claims, noting his initial opposition to tobacco before accepting its revenue and describing his fluctuating relationship with Parliament regarding funding and military action.

Smashing up guitars is a classic rock star activity, but how about drowning them? 7-year-old listener Cornelius has set CrowdScience a challenge: to find out what happens if you play a guitar underwater. Could this be the next avant-garde music sensation? Host and amateur musician Caroline Steel tackles Cornelius' question with the help of one increasingly soggy guitar. The UK's National Physical Laboratory is our first port of call, with a guitar-sized water tank at the ready, and acoustic scientists Dr Freya Malcher and Ben Ford helping tackle our questions. Since an acoustic guitar's sound is amplified by its internal chamber, what happens as that chamber starts to fill with water? How about if the whole guitar - strings, body and all - is submerged? What difference does it make if our ears are listening above or below the water? And can special water-adapted microphones help us explore this unusual question, before our guitar disintegrates? Our guitar then heads off on tour to Denmark, where the band Between Music have teased out questions just like these for their underwater music project, Aquasonic. We talk to violinist and Innovative Director Robert Karlsson, and singer Nanna Bech, who also plays a unique subaquatic instrument. With their help, we discover how to get the best out of a submerged guitar, and find out whether other instruments are better suited to the life aquatic.

Surely he didn't know it then, but his work in media in China made my guest, filmmaker David Borenstein, the perfect person to direct MR NOBODY AGAINST PUTIN (2025). It's a fantastic film following a Russian teacher "secretly documenting his school becoming a war recruitment center during the Ukraine invasion."What David and especially his co-director, Pasha TAH-LOHN-KIN, did was make a film at great personal risk because it's so cutting towards the Russian authoritarian regime. And astonishingly, as David shares in the podcast, he wants to do more of these stories in repressed societies.Thank God there are people like David and Pasha. Denmark's nominee for best international film at the 2026 Oscars is an absolute gem.In this episode, David and I discuss:the simplicity of the documentary and whether the overwhelmingly positive reaction surprised him;how he got started in filmmaking and his familiarity with heavily propagandistic societies;the difference between journalism and documentary filmmaking (he has an incredible answer here);the debates with his co-director about the concept of propaganda;how cool it would be to see a documentary or podcast on the making of MR NOBODY;logistically, how did the film happen?;how his co-director became knowledgeable behind the camera;advice for anybody interested in doing a project like this, especially when you aren't in the same place as your co-director!;how he edited the project and who got the line credit for it;how we can better support filmmakers in places like China and Russia;when the film will be available for streaming and the challenges of finding distribution in the United States;the clash between US and Europe distributors for documentary films;what's next for him.David's Indie Filmmaker Highlight: Nathan FielderMemorable Quotes:"The co-director, he actually responded to a casting call in the beginning. So in the beginning, we were filming him as a character.""The very first time that I was involved with cameras of any sort was actually as a Chinese speaking host on Chinese TV.""if you are a quite fluent foreign speaker of Chinese living in China, they'll find you after a while. You are a curiosity to Chinese audiences.""[John Grierson] defined documentary in a very special way. He didn't define it as journalism per se. He actually called it the propaganda of democracy.""There were so many points where I thought about quitting or walking away 'cause it was so hard. But don't give up." "The way I work with editors is I make a rough cut myself and then I deliver it to editors to work for a little bit of time to challenge me." "I think it's really important as director to be generous.""[The film] is resonating with people in Russia and not necessarily people who are already part of the Russian opposition.""I'm still really interested in getting into the big kind of countries that we don't understand enough, Russia and China."Links:Follow David On InstagramFollow MR NOBODY AGAINST PUTINSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/first-time-go/exclusive-content

Greg Belfrage talks to callers about Australia's new ban on social media for 16 year olds and how Denmark is following suit. Some benefits to banning social media for 16 year olds are it avoids bullying, helps and how not allowing the kids to have smartphones helps prevent being on social media. Other callers were against it saying it was a slippery slope and what other age group would get banned off of social media. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

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 takeaways. Give the guys a listen and then follow and subscribe wherever you get your podcasts. Buck Flying Solo The discussion opens with the economic outlook under President Donald Trump’s second term, emphasizing persistent affordability issues and inflationary pressures that remain despite strong stock market performance. Buck highlights the lingering impact of COVID-era shutdowns and stimulus spending, noting that prices for essentials like housing, healthcare, and education remain high. He cites recent trade deficit improvements as evidence of Trump’s “America First” trade policies and tariff strategy, while warning that Democrats will weaponize price discontent in upcoming elections. Insights from former SEC Chair Jay Clayton on the 22% price surge under Biden, framing affordability as the defining economic challenge. Buck stresses that Republicans must go beyond blaming Biden-era inflation and articulate clear solutions, including boosting supply and efficiency rather than resorting to destructive price controls—a policy he compares to Venezuela’s economic collapse. The Unaffordable Care Act Buck also addresses healthcare policy battles, revealing dueling Senate bills on Obamacare subsidies and criticizing Democrats’ push to extend Affordable Care Act provisions, which he argues have made healthcare far less affordable. He warns that rising premiums and taxpayer-funded coverage for illegal immigrants remain underreported but critical issues. Buck calls for unity on the right, rejecting intramural squabbles and urging focus on core priorities: fixing costs, securing the border, and countering media misinformation. He promotes his upcoming book Manufacturing Delusion, which explores propaganda and political manipulation, framing it as essential reading for understanding today’s ideological battles. The Truth About Immigration Buck Sexton leads a candid discussion on the breaking news that a federal judge has ordered the release of Ilmar Abrego Garcia, an alleged MS-13 gang member previously detained by ICE. This controversial ruling sparks debate about the legal wrangling surrounding deportations, the Supreme Court’s involvement, and the Trump administration’s efforts to treat MS-13 as a foreign terrorist organization. Buck frames the immigration crisis as a systemic failure spanning decades, criticizing both Democrats and establishment Republicans for enabling what he calls a “third-world invasion.” He cites expert commentary from Steven Miller, who argues that unchecked immigration impacts every major policy issue—from education and healthcare to crime and the federal deficit. Miller’s analysis underscores how subtracting illegal immigration from these metrics would dramatically improve outcomes, revealing the hidden costs of current policies. We Have to Draw a Line The conversation expands to Trump’s stance on merit-based immigration, including his blunt remarks about prioritizing immigrants from high-functioning countries like Norway and Denmark over those from unstable regions plagued by crime and terrorism. Buck explores the cultural implications of mass migration, questioning whether America can maintain its identity amid tens of millions of illegal immigrants—estimated at 20 to 30 million today. He warns that Democrats’ push for amnesty and open borders could permanently alter the nation’s political and social fabric. Listeners hear Buck dismantle common pro-immigration narratives, challenging the notion that assimilation is automatic. He points to examples in Europe, where large migrant populations have resisted integration, fueling crime and cultural clashes. Buck emphasizes that shared language, law, and culture are essential for national unity, advocating for stronger enforcement and a slowdown in immigration to preserve American values. The hour also touches on DHS Secretary Noem’s testimony on Capitol Hill, where she defends Trump’s immigration policies against Democratic attacks. Buck critiques media coverage, particularly CNN’s framing of the issue, and calls for honesty about historical immigration patterns and their consequences. He argues that America’s foreign-born population has reached unsustainable levels, making assimilation and economic stability increasingly difficult.

CannCon and Alpha Warrior push through head colds to deliver a jam-packed breakdown of the escalating global realignment as Trump's new National Security Strategy sends shockwaves through Europe and beyond. They dig into Congress' bloated defense bill, stuffed with Ukraine funding, limits on Trump's military authority, and billions funneled to the military-industrial complex, while asking why “America First” lawmakers keep enabling it. The hosts analyze the dramatic U.S. seizure of a Venezuelan tanker, Trump's cryptic comments about “keeping the oil,” Maduro's public plea against imperialism, and the CIA-linked opposition figures suddenly resurfacing. Shifting to Europe, CannCon and Alpha unpack Denmark labeling the U.S. a security risk, NATO's apocalyptic messaging, and Lavrov warning that EU “peacekeepers” in Ukraine would become legitimate targets. They also cover RFK Jr.'s regenerative farming push, AI-driven economic transformation, child-safety concerns with the Wiz app, and rising domestic extremism fueled by demographic and cultural conflict. A fiery, high-signal episode connecting the dots in a world racing toward a multipolar future.

If you're raising kids in Denmark and still feel confused every time you deal with the healthcare system, this episode will make things finally click.Derek and Brooke return for part two of their conversation with Emma, a British pediatrician based in Copenhagen. This time, the three of them talk about what it actually feels like to navigate Danish healthcare as an international parent, from getting used to the child-focused, community-based setup to knowing when to push a little, when to trust the process, and how cultural norms can shape the care you get. Emma also shares what it is like to be both a doctor and a mom in a country where the style, communication, and systems can feel completely different from what you are used to.If you haven't heard Part 1, go check that out first: https://pod.link/1704607322/episode/NjkyZjAxYzA3ZTVlNzcxMDU4YWExNWM0Referenced Websites:akut.dksundhed.dken.stps.dkEmma:https://www.doctormumforkids.com/instagram.com/doctormumforkidsemail: hello@doctormumforkids.comDerek Hartman: https://www.instagram.com/derekhartmandk https://youtube.com/c/robetrottinghttps://tiktok.com/@derekhartmandkwww.facebook.com/robetrottingBrooke Black:https://instagram.com/brookeblackjusthttps://www.tiktok.com/@brookeblackjust

A “world-leading” social media ban has been enforced by the Australian government, to prevent under-16s from accessing social media sites, including Facebook, Instagram, X and YouTube. Platforms that do not comply risk fines of up to $49.5m.Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese described the move as "the day when Australian families are taking back power from these big tech companies". The ban has garnered worldwide attention, with several nations indicating they will adopt a ban of their own, including Malaysia, Denmark and Norway.But could similar legislation be introduced in the UK?

China's major airlines have extended free refund and rescheduling policies for Japan-bound tickets as weekly Sino-Japanese flight volumes sink to their lowest level in a month and Chinese travelers redirect their winter holiday plans toward emerging hubs in Russia, Central Asia and domestic ice-and-snow destinations.中国主要航空公司已延长日本航线机票的免费退改政策，因中日每周航班量跌至一个月来最低水平，中国旅客正将冬季度假计划转向俄罗斯、中亚新兴枢纽及国内冰雪旅游目的地。On Friday, major domestic airlines, including Air China, China Eastern Airlines and China Southern Airlines, extended their previous Dec 31 deadline for refunds and rebooking to March 28 next year, the end of the winter-spring travel season.周五，包括中国国际航空、中国东方航空和中国南方航空在内的国内主要航空公司，将原定于12月31日的退票和改签截止日期延长至明年3月28日，即寒假春假出行高峰期的结束之日。The extensions follow China's travel advisories issued in mid-November discouraging trips to Japan after erroneous remarks by Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi regarding China's Taiwan. Chinese airlines have since recalibrated capacity, with reductions concentrated in leisure-heavy routes.此次延长禁令源于中国11月中旬发布的旅行建议，该建议因日本首相高市早苗就中国台湾问题发表不当言论而劝阻赴日旅行。此后中国航空公司已调整运力配置，削减主要集中在休闲旅游为主的航线。Data from Flight Master, a travel services platform, show that round-trip Sino-Japanese flights fell to 1,167 during the week of Nov 24-30, the lowest weekly volume in a month, with the recovery rate sliding to 78.1 percent, a new low. As of Dec 1, the projected cancellation rate for Sino-Japanese flights scheduled in December rose to 26.4 percent, continuing an upward trend.旅行服务平台Flight Master数据显示，11月24日至30日当周中日往返航班量降至1167架次，创下一个月来最低周度水平，复航率滑落至78.1%，再创新低。截至12月1日，12月中日航班的预计取消率升至26.4%，持续呈上升趋势。Industry insiders said that the impact is likely to extend beyond the Spring Festival period, with aircraft redeployed to Southeast Asia and domestic routes.业内人士表示，该影响可能持续到春节假期之后，部分航班将被调往东南亚及国内航线。As travelers look beyond Japan for winter sports and seasonal scenery, travel demand is rising across a widening set of destinations. One of the most significant shifts is toward Russia following Moscow's decision to grant Chinese citizens visa-free entry for up to 30 days through Sept 14 next year.随着游客将目光投向日本以外的冬季运动和季节性景观，越来越多的目的地正迎来旅游需求增长。其中最显著的变化之一是俄罗斯旅游热潮，因为莫斯科宣布自即日起至明年9月14日，中国公民赴俄可享受最长30天的免签待遇。UTour, a Beijing-based travel agency, said inquiries doubled immediately after the policy took effect, driven largely by Spring Festival travel plans.北京优途天下国际旅行社表示，新规生效后咨询量立即翻倍，主要受春节出行计划推动。Huang Zhaoyang, the company's Russia product manager, said Murmansk, known for its aurora and ice-snow resources, is attracting attention under the new policy. Russia's overall appeal is expected to strengthen and help woo a wider range of Chinese travelers, he added.该公司俄罗斯产品经理黄朝阳（音译）表示，以极光和冰雪资源闻名的摩尔曼斯克在新政策下正吸引更多关注。他补充道，俄罗斯整体吸引力有望增强，有助于吸引更广泛的中国游客群体。Outbound travel is also pivoting notably toward Central Asia and Northern Europe, with Kazakhstan rapidly emerging as a winter sports hub. Tongcheng Travel data show that flight bookings from major Chinese cities to Kazakhstan between early December and the New Year holiday climbed more than 50 percent year-on-year, while hotel reservations climbed more than 80 percent, with Almaty and Astana ranking as top choices.出境游目的地也明显转向中亚和北欧地区，哈萨克斯坦正迅速崛起为冬季运动中心。同城旅游数据显示，12月初至新年假期期间，中国主要城市飞往哈萨克斯坦的机票预订量同比增长超50%，酒店预订量增幅更达80%以上，其中阿拉木图和阿斯塔纳成为最热门目的地。Analysts at Tongcheng's tourism research institute said the "Japan substitution effect" has accelerated since late November, with outbound ski demand that once concentrated on Japan increasingly shifting toward Kazakhstan and Nordic destinations. They added that domestic ski areas are also becoming popular alternatives to Japan's ski destinations.同程旅游研究院分析师指出，自11月下旬以来，“日本替代效应”持续加速，原先集中在日本的出境滑雪需求正逐步转向哈萨克斯坦及北欧目的地。他们补充道，国内滑雪场也正成为日本滑雪目的地的热门替代选择。European destinations are witnessing a similar upswing. Hotel bookings in Germany and Spain have increased by more than 300 percent year-on-year, while Denmark and Switzerland have posted gains exceeding 200 percent.欧洲旅游目的地也呈现出类似的增长态势。德国和西班牙的酒店预订量同比增幅超过300%，而丹麦和瑞士的增幅则超过200%。Domestically, local governments are racing to capture winter travelers through substantial incentives. Jilin province rolled out 100 million yuan ($14.1 million) in ice-snow vouchers and offered free ski passes to university students, while the Inner Mongolia and Xinjiang Uygur autonomous regions have introduced similar discounts.国内方面，地方政府正通过大幅优惠政策争相吸引冬季度假游客。吉林省推出价值1亿元（约合1410万美元）的冰雪消费券，并为大学生提供免费滑雪通行证；内蒙古和新疆维吾尔自治区也推出了类似的折扣政策。Qunar, a Beijing-based online travel agency, said hotel bookings in Xinjiang's Bortala region rose more than 80 percent year-on-year from November to late January of 2026, while reservations in the northeastern cities of Dandong, Liaoning province, Liaoyuan, Jilin province and Yichun, Heilongjiang province, each grew around 30 percent.北京在线旅游平台途牛旅游网表示，2026年11月至次年1月底期间，新疆博尔塔拉地区的酒店预订量同比增长逾80%，而东北地区辽宁省丹东市、吉林省辽源市及黑龙江省伊春市的酒店预订量均增长约30%。Demand for trips to glaciers and snow mountains has also surged, with ticket bookings for sites such as Meili Snow Mountain in Yunnan province and Xiling Snow Mountain in Sichuan province doubling year-on-year.前往冰川雪山的旅游需求也大幅增长，云南梅里雪山、四川西岭雪山等景点的门票预订量同比翻了一番。According to a white paper on China's ski industry, China currently has 748 operational ski resorts, including 66 indoor centers. Total ski visits reached 26.05 million last winter, up 12.9 percent.根据中国滑雪产业白皮书显示，目前中国共有748家运营中的滑雪场，其中包括66家室内滑雪中心。去年冬季滑雪人次达到2605万，同比增长12.9%。The white paper also noted that China's total ski visits last season surpassed Switzerland's 23.1 million, reflecting the growing scale of China's winter sports market. Average ski days per participant in China rose from 1.80 to 1.92, indicating increasing skier engagement and loyalty.该白皮书还指出，中国上赛季滑雪人次总量已超越瑞士的2310万人次，彰显中国冬季运动市场规模的持续扩大。中国滑雪者人均滑雪天数从1.80天提升至1.92天，表明滑雪参与度与忠诚度正逐步增强。recalibratev./ˌriːˈkæl.ə.breɪt/重新校准

In this reflective and practical episode of the Big Careers, Small Children podcast, Leaders Plus Interim COO Helen Fraser speaks with Rupert Brown, author of Lost in Transformation and Leaders Plus Senior Leader Mentor.Rupert has spent much of his career leading people change in multinational organisations, including international assignments in Switzerland, Singapore, Denmark and Dubai, while raising two children abroad. He shares what he has learned about making big career decisions when family needs change, leading transformation with more humanity, and staying honest with yourself in the middle of corporate upheaval.Drawing on his experience working with people and culture, he shares the moment his teenagers asked why the family was “doing lockdown in the desert,” the family's return to the UK, and how the sudden death of his father and his employer's response reshaped his view of leadership and empathy.Together, they explore✔️ How Rupert and his family navigated multiple international moves, and why their teenagers' voices were central to the decision to come back to the UK for more stability.✔️ What really happens to family life and career confidence when work and location decisions stop being “just” the parents' choices.✔️ Why he believes many corporate change programmes ignore basic psychology and the lived experience of the people affected, and what drew him to write Lost in Transformation.✔️ Rupert's PIE model: performance, image and exposure, and why hard work alone is rarely enough for progression, especially for working parents with limited time.✔️ What the death of his father taught him about principle based policies, bereavement leave, and the quiet power of simple, human responses from leaders in moments of grief.What you'll learn in this episode

Coltan Scrivner (Morbidly Curious: A Scientist Explains Why We Can't Look Away) is a psychologist, researcher, and author. Coltan joins the Armchair Expert to discuss always preferring to do nitty gritty research in the field rather than a sterile lab, studying human fun and fear responses to haunted houses in Denmark, and his four domains of morbid curiosity. Coltan and Dax talk about why in nature there's a lot of danger without safe opportunities to learn about it, that bar fights actually take place a lot less than if we were chimps, and how bodily injury is an effective cue for danger and violence. Coltan explains ghost hunting in Georgia while not believing but seeing anyway, the 24-question scale he created for measuring morbid curiosities, and whether serial killers over-index in liking horror.Follow Armchair Expert on the Wondery App or wherever you get your podcasts.

A sperm donor who unknowingly harboured a genetic mutation that dramatically raises the risk of cancer has fathered at least 197 children across Europe, a major investigation has revealed. Some children have already died and only a minority who inherit the mutation will escape cancer in their lifetimes. Denmark's European Sperm Bank, which sold the sperm, said families affected had their "deepest sympathy" and admitted the sperm was used to make too many babies in some countries.The sperm came from an anonymous man who was paid to donate as a student, starting in 2005.

Double Tap Episode 439 This episode of Double Tap is brought to you by: Gideon Optics, Primary Arms, Night Fision, Blue Alpha, Bowers Group, and Second Call Defense   Welcome to Double Tap, episode 439! Your hosts tonight are Jeremy Pozderac, Jon Patton and me Shawn Herrin, welcome to the show! Jon Patton - https://theguncollective.com/ Dear WLS Hunter M - Wanting to upgrade my Ender 3 Pro to a Bambu X1C, but I am hesitant to buy one if there is a possibility of blocking 2A prints. I have seen where some people suggest never connecting it to the internet and only printing off of SD cards but it seems like you could be missing out on a ton of features. Is it worth it to connect it to the internet or play it safe and only use it offline? If it was connected and they pushed out anti-gun restrictions how could you get the printer back to printing freedom? Conner R - What are your go to snacks or meals when hiking, camping, hunting, or rucking? What are you favorite meals in general? Thanks!l Uvuana Suqit - Why does every host on the Firearms Radio Network seem to have an astigmatism? And a bunch of other media people in the firearms industry in general. I hear constantly about not being able to use red dots because of astigmatism, making the dot not a perfect circle, and some other shape. Just want to say that the projection on the glass for red dots won't be a perfect circle with the way they are designed/manufactured, and the “dot” has a weird shape because it is projecting a bunch of tiny dots to a general area on the glass to make up the dot. It does not create a perfect circle. And if you focus on the “dot,” then you will see “imperfection” vs looking at the target where the “imperfection” will be nonexistent, with the general dot shape being over the target. I'm just curious if everyone is mistaking this inherent design of the red dot projection for something that is wrong with their eyes. And when every host says they have an astigmatism, it just seems odd. Karl F - The conflict in Ukraine has demonstrated the usefulness of small drones when it comes to both reconnaissance and delivery of payloads. This usefulness could definitely extend beyond combat to a SHTF scenario. Have any of you considered adding a drone to your gear collection?#blamecanada Oopsie Daisy - If you wanted to escape thermal imaging, do you think throwing a mylar poncho over the wool Five Star Alterations poncho would have a greater effect on reducing your thermal signature? For no one in particular, I'm interested to hear all of your opinions on this. Nate B - How far back is too far back for barrel porting? I understand you'd like the port as far forward as possible as that is where it's most beneficial (better tilt point) but I've seen ported Glocks and other pistols where they have multiple, tiny holes that seem to be fairly close to the chamber. Also ports > comps Anthony L - I wanted to ask what sites you use for the 3d print files. Thank you   The winner of this week's swag pack is Oopsie Daisy!

Navigating Denmark's healthcare system as an international can feel confusing, surprising, and occasionally hilarious, but it doesn't have to. Derek and Brooke sit down with Dr. Emma, a British pediatrician in Copenhagen, to unpack how the system really works for internationals. They cover why the GP is your main gateway into care, why appointments can feel too short, and how cultural communication styles can lead to misunderstandings. Emma explains why some treatments seem missing, breaks down the logic behind antibiotics and screenings, and shares practical tips for advocating for yourself without feeling like a hypochondriac.This is part 1 of a 2 part conversation. Today's episode focuses on the general system and the everyday realities of navigating medical care as an international, while part 2, coming Thursday, dives into pediatric care, emergency experiences, and the digital tools you will definitely need.Referenced Websites:akut.dksundhed.dken.stps.dkEmma:https://www.doctormumforkids.com/instagram.com/doctormumforkidsemail: hello@doctormumforkids.comDerek Hartman: https://www.instagram.com/derekhartmandk https://youtube.com/c/robetrottinghttps://tiktok.com/@derekhartmandkwww.facebook.com/robetrottingBrooke Black:https://instagram.com/brookeblackjusthttps://www.tiktok.com/@brookeblackjust

We can finally start looking forward to the quarter-finals, beginning on Tuesday in Dortmund. Co-hosts Germany are on the hunt for their first world medal since 2007 and Maike Elger, who has been covering the championship for Sportschau in Germany, speaks to us about the tournament so far, the promotion of the team in German media and what they're capable of in the knockout rounds. And Laura Agena from Playmaker WH speaks to us from Rotterdam about the group final wins for Netherlands and Denmark, the fortunes of some teams close to her heart and the too close to call quarter-finals on Wednesday.

Vita bussarna var en aktion i slutet på andra världskriget där Svenska Röda Korset räddade 15 000 koncentrationslägerfångar från Tyskland, främst norrmän och danskar. Aktionen leddes av greve Folke Bernadotte med stöd från den svenska samlingsregeringen.I det kaotiska slutskedet av Tredje riket lyckades Folke Bernadotte i hemliga förhandlingar få ett godkännande för hela operationen av SS-ledaren Heinrich Himmler. I samarbetet med tyskarna tvingades de ansvariga för Vita bussarna ta svåra beslut för att inte äventyra hela aktionen.I avsnittet av podden Historia Nu samtalar programledaren Urban Lindstedt med professor i historia, Ulf Zander, vid Lunds universitet om insatsen — dess bakgrund, nyckelpersoner och de etiska dilemman som följde.Är du en vanlig prenumerant för du bara lyssna på tio min.

Det var då Folke Bernadotte – vice ordförande i Röda Korset – trädde in som koordinator.Den första expeditionen startade redan tidigt 1945 med siktet mot att hämta svenskfödda kvinnor och barn i Tyskland — ett första steg mot det som kom att bli den större Vita bussarna‑aktionen. I praktiken var det konvojer med totalt 36 specialmålade vita bussar samt lastbilar, ambulanser och personbilar körde över hela Tyskland för att främst rädda utmärglade norska och danska koncentrationslägerfångar.Att just Röda Korset fick ansvaret var både praktiskt och principiellt: organisationen hade internationella kontakter, erfarenhet av humanitärt arbete och uppfattades som neutral — vilket var avgörande i ett krig där militära operationer var riskfyllda och politiskt känsliga.Genom att använda sig av militära resurser från svenska staten – fordon, personal och logistik – kunde Röda Korset genomföra en humanitär operation med tydliga skyltar (vita bussar med röda kors och svenska flaggor) för att signalera att det inte rörde sig om militära mål.Folke Bernadotte spelade en huvudroll i att förhandlingarna med Heinrich Himmler, chefen för SS. I februari 1945 reste Bernadotte till Berlin och inledde samtal med tyska myndigheter — bakom Hitlers rygg. Målet var att få tillstånd att transportera skandinaviska fångar ur lägren. Planen var att etablera en flerstegs-raket som började med att samla de skandinaviska fångarna i ett läger, för att senare utverka tillstånd att flytta dem till Sverige.Bildtext: Röda Korsets vita bussar kör genom Odense på väg till Sverige med danska fångar från tyska koncentrationsläger, den 17 april 1945. © Nationalmuseet – National Museum of Denmark, CC BY-SA 2.0.Musik: In Slavic Sorrow av Yagull Music, Storyblock Audio Hosted on Acast.

Recorded 1st December 2025. A discussion with Ambassador Lars Thuesen, Denmark's Ambassador to Ireland, about Denmark's European Presidency (ending on the 31st of December), their priorities and vision for Europe, as well as the challenges Europe faces at this pivotal moment. We will also hear from the Minister for European Affairs, Thomas Byrne TD about the objectives and ambitions of the forthcoming Irish Presidency, and Dr Deirdre Foley, Principal Investigator for the TÚS Research Ireland Pathway Project in the School of Histories and Humanities. The bond between Denmark and Ireland stretches back to the age of the Vikings, and today the relationship between Denmark and Ireland is a strong and rewarding one, both politically and economically. Our comparable sizes, shared interests, and historic links make for a solid foundation on which cooperation between our two countries can take place, and there is much that Ireland can learn from looking at how Denmark has approached its Presidency.

No matter where you sit within the economy, whether you're a CEO or an entry level worker, everyone's feeling uneasy about AI and the future of work. Uncertainty about career paths, job security, and life planning makes thinking about the future anxiety inducing. In this episode, Daniel Barcay sits down with two experts on AI and work to examine what's actually happening in today's labor market and what's likely coming in the near-term. We explore the crucial question: Can we create conditions for AI to enrich work and careers, or are we headed toward widespread economic instability? Ethan Mollick is a professor at the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania, where he studies innovation, entrepreneurship, and the future of work. He's the author of Co-Intelligence: Living and Working with AI.Molly Kinder is a senior fellow at the Brookings Institution, where she researches the intersection of AI, work, and economic opportunity. She recently led research with the Yale Budget Lab examining AI's real-time impact on the labor market. RECOMMENDED MEDIACo-Intelligence: Living and Working with AI by Ethan MollickFurther reading on Molly's study with the Yale Budget LabThe “Canaries in the Coal Mine” Study from Stanford's Digital Economy LabEthan's substack One Useful Thing RECOMMENDED YUA EPISODESIs AI Productivity Worth Our Humanity? with Prof. Michael SandelWe Have to Get It Right': Gary Marcus On Untamed AIAI Is Moving Fast.

However, that was only among forecasters with more general knowledge (the exact number was 2.3%). Among domain expert forecasters, the odds were an 8.6% chance.Ethan claimed that over 50% of Americans say that they're using AI at work. We weren't able to independently verify this claim and most studies we found showed lower rates of reported use of AI with American workers. There are reports from other countries, notably Denmark, which show higher rates of AI use.Ethan indirectly quoted the Walmart CEO Doug McMillon as having a goal to “keep all 3 million employees and to figure out new ways to expand what they use.” In fact, McMillon's language on AI has been much softer, saying that “AI is expected to create a number of jobs at Walmart, which will offset those that it replaces.” Additionally, Walmart has 2.1 million employees, not 3.

Ep 238 | This week on Discover Ag, Natalie and Tara dig into Jeff Bezos' role in the beef industry, the end of a 200-year-old publication, and why your FFA jacket just became a fashion statement. The hosts tackle viral claims about methane-reducing feed additives for cattle, separating Bill Gates' investments from Bezos' initiatives. They discuss the Bovaer controversy in Denmark where farmers are now required to use methane-reducing supplements, and explore the tension between environmental responsibility and farmer autonomy. Plus, the Farmer's Almanac is publishing its final edition after 206 years, FFA jackets have become the hottest vintage fashion item, and the hosts reveal why your Costco pecans are at least a year old. Stick around for a disco debrief on the first documented US death from Alpha-Gal Syndrome (the tick-borne meat allergy), plus a deep dive into the pecan supply chain. Spoiler: the US grows 80% of the world's pecans, but we ship them to Mexico to be shelled, then import them back. The food supply chain is wild, and the hosts break down why "fresh" is complicated.

On 10 December 2025, Australia will become the first country in the world to ban under-16s from using social media apps.Children will have their accounts deactivated on most platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Snapchat, X, and Facebook.Critics say the ban could push children to unregulated platforms, but prime minister Anthony Albanese argues the new law is to safeguard vulnerable members of society. World leaders are watching with interest.Politicians from the UK, Denmark, Greece and France have all suggested tighter controls could be coming soon.New Zealand's government wants tougher rules too, and public debates are also beginning in Japan and Indonesia.This week on The Inquiry we're asking: Will Australia's social media ban start a global trend?Contributors: Terry Flew, Professor of digital communication and culture at the University of Sydney, Australia Sonia Livingstone, Professor in the department of media and communications at the London School of Economics, United Kingdom Lisa Given, Professor of information sciences at RMIT University in Melbourne, Australia Jessica Galissaire, senior policy researcher at Interface, FrancePresenter and Producer: Daniel Rosney Researcher: Evie Yabsley Production Management Assistant: Liam Morrey Technical producer: James Bradshaw Editor: Tom Bigwood(Photo credit: David Gray/AFP via Getty Images)

Dave sits down with WSL Championship Tour standout Isabella Nichols and filmmaker/photographer Jakob Gjerluff Ager to dive into their new film Nordborn, a cinematic ode to Isabella's Danish heritage and the quiet strength found in cold-water surfing. Fresh off a season of heavy travel, Isabella reflects on a year that pushed her physically and emotionally, and how reconnecting with her family's lineage opened unexpected creative and personal doors. She shares how Denmark went from a childhood holiday destination to the emotional anchor of a new project, one that helped her explore identity, belonging, and the feeling of “hygge” that shaped the film's tone. Jakob breaks down the creative process behind capturing the stark, soulful beauty of the North Atlantic, why he was drawn to telling Isabella's story, and how their shared cultural ties shaped the visual language of Nordborn. Together, they talk about bringing a non-traditional surf landscape to life, blending family history with modern surf performance, and the unexpected magic of cold-water lineups. The trio also dives into the contrasts between tour life and creative life, navigating career pivots, the importance of place and community, and how storytelling can reshape the way we see surfing and surfers.

After surviving Thanksgiving and the subsequent biting cold, we jumped into the FOLLOW UP with news that Malaysia is joining the trend by taking steps to ban social media for children under 16, mirroring similar actions in Australia and Denmark—it seems the world is finally realizing the internet is a toxic wasteland for the kids. We also discussed Apple's photo AI, which is apparently still in beta, if the results are anything to go by. The bulk of our discussion centered on the spectacular, flaming death of the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), which is Officially Dead. We broke down a brief rundown of the damages this vanity project caused, from humanitarian disasters overseas to administrative chaos and the loss of hundreds of thousands of jobs domestically, proving the "savings" were pure illusion. Now, with the collapse, the 'Suddenly exposed' DOGE employees fear prosecution after Musk abandoned them, learning the hard way that billionaire guardianship has an expiration date.The job market is just great, with both Apple laying off part of its sales team despite record revenue, and HP joining the List of Tech Companies Cutting Jobs and pointing to AI as the convenient scapegoat for laying off 10% of their workforce. Meanwhile, we found out the most popular social media platform among US adults isn't Instagram or TikTok—it's YouTube—while Meta allegedly buried research showing its products are harming users, confirming what we've known all along: they're evil, but they already got your grandma hooked. Adding to the misery, An Alarming Number of Teens Say They Turn To AI For Company, Study Finds, because why talk to a real, messy human when a bot can gaslight you more efficiently? Sam Altman's financial troubles are spilling over, with Sam Altman's Business Buddies Are Getting Stung (sorry, SoftBank and Oracle), and analysts estimate OpenAI Is Just $200 Billion Away From Still Losing Money, HSBC Says, a comical hole they plan to fill by asking for more free money. Legally, OpenAI can't use the Word ‘Cameo' in Sora now, thanks to a trademark suit, and Warner Music is playing both sides by dropping its lawsuit against Suno in exchange for a licensing agreement. Finally, in some truly dark news, a Marc Andreessen-backed Super-PAC Pours Millions Into Fighting State AI Regulations, and X's new location feature reveals that New X Feature Reveals Many MAGA Patriots on X Are Not Even Based in the U.S.After ranting about my misery dealing with the Open Dialogue bug in a beta build and declaring my return to "pedestrian releases," we got into APPS & DOODADS. Spotify is actually doing something cool with its new SongDNA feature, which shows you who sampled what (and they bought WhoSampled to do it). They're also testing Spotify's New AI-powered audiobook Recaps to remind you where you left off—Amazon is doing the same with AI-powered series Recap Videos for Prime Video. Amazon is also rolling out Alexa Home Theater surround sound for Echo speakers, making those budget speakers slightly more useful. We ran through some great stocking stuffers in Jason's Holiday Gift Guide, including Velcro cable ties and the Contigo travel mug, before moving on to MEDIA CANDY, which included Dan Carlin's Common Sense, Nathan Fillion and Alan Tudyk's new podcast Once We Were Spacemen, and a discussion on why Stranger Things Lost the Plot. We then got deeply uncomfortable talking about a Toronto ASMR spa that offers doctor roleplay, and closed out by talking about the documentary Quiet Please… about the neurological disorder misophonia. The episode finished with the AT THE LIBRARY segment, covering the Milli Vanilli memoir You Know It's True and the sci-fi short story collection The Time Travelers Passport.Show notes at https://gog.show/724Watch now on YouTube: https://youtu.be/PoMa9FM5QEE?si=4r25yqv_0u8aXHF7Sponsors:MasterClass - Get up to 50% off at MASTERCLASS.com/GRUMPYOLDGEEKSGusto - Try Gusto today at gusto.com/grumpy, and get three months free when you run your first payroll.Private Internet Access - Go to GOG.Show/vpn and sign up today.
