The Cello Sherpa Podcast Host, Joel Dallow, interviews cellist Robert Howard. Robert is a Founder and the Co-Artistic Director, along with Rebecca Merblum, of the Kenya International Chamber Music Festival. He shares his journey growing up as a cellist in metro Atlanta, to his life of teaching and freelancing in the San Francisco bay area. After an incredibly moving trip to Kenya in 2019, Robert and Rebecca were inspired to start the Kenya International Cello Festival, which quickly morphed into a chamber music festival. Robert speaks about the impact they are making in Nairobi by teaching young musicians how to play string instruments, which have been generously donated by many organizations in the US, bringing in faculty to coach chamber music groups, training music teachers to teach the younger students, and training Kenyans how to do repairs on instruments. This is an incredibly inspiring story about how to make a difference in the lives of young students living in the slums of Nairobi, through the power of music!For more information on Robert: https://roberthowardcello.com/You can also find Robert on Instagram: @rhowardcelloFor more information on the Kenya International Chamber Music Festival: https://www.kicf.net/tourIf you are looking for in person/virtual cello lessons, or orchestral repertoire audition coachings, check out www.theCelloSherpa.comFollow us on Facebook, Instagram, YouTube and Bluesky @theCelloSherpaFor more information on our sponsor: www.CLEAResources.com

« Depuis le début de la semaine, la tension monte entre les FARDC, les Forces armées de la République démocratique du Congo, et la rébellion [du groupe] l'AFC/M23, l'Alliance Fleuve Congo. Les deux parties s'accusent mutuellement de violations répétées du cessez-le-feu alors que le processus de paix de Doha marque le pas » : constat établi par le site congolais Actualité CD. En effet, précise-t-il, d'un côté, « l'armée congolaise a dénoncé "l'attitude belliciste" de la coalition M23/AFC, accusée de mener de "multiples attaques" contre ses positions au Nord-Kivu et au Sud-Kivu, assorties de "massacres ciblés" de civils. » Et de l'autre, « l'AFC/M23 affirme que Kinshasa poursuit "ses manœuvres militaires offensives" en vue d'"un conflit à grande échelle", et ce malgré la signature de la Déclaration de principes du 19 juillet dernier à Doha. (…) Ces échanges de communiqués interviennent dans un contexte d'impasse diplomatique, relève encore Actualité CD. Les discussions directes prévues il y a 10 jours à Doha entre le gouvernement congolais et l'AFC/M23 n'ont pas eu lieu. Selon la médiation qatarienne, les deux parties "continuent de travailler" à la mise en œuvre de la déclaration de principes, notamment sur la création d'un mécanisme, avec la participation de la Croix-Rouge internationale, pour l'échange de prisonniers. Ce point, qui devait être réglé avant le 29 juillet, bloque la suite du processus. » Négociations au point mort Le Monde Afrique s'interroge : « Le Qatar parviendra-t-il à ramener la RDC et les rebelles de l'AFC-M23 à la table des négociations ? Alors que les parties devaient conclure un "accord de paix global" censé mettre fin aux violences qui déchirent l'est congolais au plus tard hier, 18 août, rien n'a été signé et les négociations semblent au point mort. » Et « les combats ont repris au Sud-Kivu, constate également Le Monde Afrique, notamment où le M23 est en train de conquérir des espaces dans le territoire de Walungu, au sud-ouest de la capitale régionale, Bukavu. "La seule certitude pour le moment, c'est qu'on est dans un enlisement diplomatique complet", résume Onesphore Sematumba, spécialiste de la RDC pour International Crisis Group. » Parmi les points de tension, note encore le journal, outre la question de la libération des prisonniers, il y a celle du « rétablissement de l'autorité de l'État congolais (…) : pour Kinshasa, cela signifie que le M23 doit quitter Goma et Bukavu au plus vite. Mais le mouvement rebelle s'efforce au contraire de reconstruire ce qu'il appelle un "État" dans les "territoires libérés". » À lire aussiPaix en RDC : entre restauration de l'État et projet fédéral, le bras de fer entre Kinshasa et l'AFC/M23 Coup de pression de Washington ? Afrikarabia, site spécialisé sur la RDC, résume ainsi la situation : « à Doha, Kinshasa et l'AFC/M23 n'ont pas avancé d'un iota et l'impasse des discussions se paie « cash » sur le terrain. (…) Pour débloquer la situation, deux options sont sur la table, estime Afrikarabia : un énième coup de pression de Washington, qui hésite pour l'instant à endosser le rôle du gendarme, ou bien une reprise des affrontements directs entre l'armée congolaise, qui s'est considérablement renforcée, et l'AFC/M23, qui a énormément recruté et maîtrise encore le terrain dans les zones qu'elle contrôle. Mais le temps presse. L'impasse à Doha retarde l'ensemble du processus de paix globale et la mise en œuvre de l'accord de Washington. Un blocage qui fait craindre un nouvel embrasement de l'est congolais. » Le Kenya jette un pavé dans la mare D'autant, complète Le Pays au Burkina, que « dans cette guerre sans fin qui ne dit pas encore son nom, certains pays donnent l'impression de pêcher en eaux troubles pour mieux tirer leurs marrons du brasier congolais. » En effet, relève le quotidien ouagalais, « dans ce contexte particulièrement explosif, la nomination par le Kenya d'un consul à Goma, occupée par le M23/AFC, ne passe pas aux yeux des autorités de Kinshasa qui y voient une forme de légitimation de l'occupation de la ville par les rebelles. Une situation qui pourrait exacerber les tensions avec Kinshasa qui a toujours accusé Nairobi de parti pris pour Kigali, connue pour son soutien au M23. C'est donc le lieu d'appeler la médiation internationale à redoubler d'efforts, s'exclame Le Pays, en pesant de tout son poids pour que les uns et les autres reviennent à de meilleurs sentiments et tiennent leurs engagements, pour donner une chance à la paix, afin de ne pas prolonger inutilement les souffrances des populations. »  À lire aussiPaix en RDC : l'AFC-M23 et le gouvernement congolais vont-ils reprendre le dialogue ?

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 Thursday takeaways. Give the guys a listen and then follow and subscribe wherever you get your podcasts. Make America Safe Again violent crime in American cities, with Clay spotlighting disturbing incidents in Cincinnati and Memphis. He shares the story of Holly, a mother who was brutally attacked, and critiques the justice system’s failure to keep repeat offenders off the streets. Ohio Senator Bernie Moreno invited Holly to speak out about the crime. Clay praises Judge Jeanine Pirro and President Donald Trump for taking strong stances on law and order, including Trump’s proposal to federalize the D.C. police force and demand a new U.S. census to correct errors from 2020 and prepare for 2030. The show also explores the political debate over crime statistics, contrasting claims of declining crime rates with real-life safety concerns. Clay argues for empowering police, holding judges accountable, and ensuring cities like Washington D.C. and Memphis become safe again for families. American Dads are Failing A deep dive into the rising violent crime in Washington, D.C., spotlighting President Donald Trump's efforts to restore law and order in the capital. Drawing on historical symbolism, Clay reflects on the importance of capital cities, referencing Abraham Lincoln’s commitment to completing the Capitol dome during the Civil War and the newly announced reconciliation monument at Arlington Cemetery. The episode features a striking comparison of homicide rates in global capital cities, revealing Washington, D.C.’s alarming rate of 41 per 100,000—far higher than cities like Lima, Nairobi, and Mexico City. Clay argues that a safe and vibrant capital is essential to American exceptionalism and global leadership. The crisis of fatherlessness in America. Clay explores how the absence of fathers in households correlates with youth violence, poverty, and societal breakdown. He responds to listener feedback, emphasizing that while individual cases vary, the data overwhelmingly shows that intact families—especially with present fathers—lead to better outcomes. The discussion includes racial disparities, with Clay citing historical data showing stronger black family units prior to the Great Society programs and questioning the long-term impact of government dependency. Talking Left and Living Right The decline of fatherhood in American homes. Clay and listeners explore how absent fathers—across racial and socioeconomic lines—correlate with rising violent crime, poverty, and social instability. The discussion includes listener emails and calls, including one from Ralph in Cincinnati, who shares his personal struggle for equal custody and critiques the family court system’s bias toward mothers. Clay argues for 50/50 parenting time and criticizes the financial incentives that perpetuate divorce litigation. Clay promotes YouTube bonus content book reviews, including The Fate of the Day, a volume in the American Revolution trilogy, and thrillers by Mick Herron, Sue Grafton, and Robert Parker. Clay emphasizes the importance of reading and historical literacy for conservative audiences. SC Sen. Tim Scott on Faith South Carolina Senator Tim Scott, author of One Nation Always Under God: Profiles in Christian Courage, and dives deep into the crisis of fatherlessness in America, the role of faith in family life, and the impact of government policy on household dynamics. Senator Scott joins the program to discuss his book and personal journey growing up in a single-parent household. He highlights the importance of faith, family, and male role models in shaping strong communities. Scott shares statistics on fatherless homes—over 70% among African-American boys and 40% among white working-class families—and calls for a cultural and spiritual revival to restore family values. The hour also touches on President Trump’s call for a new census, which could shift congressional representation and electoral college influence toward red states. Clay explains how a corrected census could add seats in Florida and Texas while reducing representation in California and New York. In a lighter moment, Clay and Senator Scott discuss college football rivalries, with Scott predicting a strong season for the South Carolina Gamecocks. The conversation showcases Scott’s loyalty and enthusiasm for sports, adding a relatable and entertaining dimension to the hour.

Are you tired of feeling trapped in your 9-to-5, dreaming of a life where you call the shots? In this episode, I sit down with Rebecca Muriuki, a corporate exit strategist who traded her role as a Big Four audit firm director for the freedom of remote entrepreneurship—all while managing a thriving short-term rental business from Nairobi, Kenya.Rebecca's story isn't just about leaving the corporate world; it's about rewriting the rules of success. After years of climbing the ladder, she realized true fulfillment meant prioritizing family, fun, and freedom. Now, she's helping other women do the same—by building income streams that align with their values and unlock lifestyle freedom.We go deep into the mindset shifts required to break free from the golden handcuffs of traditional careers. Rebecca opens up about the identity crisis she faced after leaving corporate, how she manages properties remotely, and the practical steps she took to reclaim her time and power.What sets Rebecca apart is her holistic approach—this isn't just about investing in real estate and throwing a property on Airbnb, it's about recalibrating your entire relationship with money, success, and self-worth. If you've ever felt stuck or scared to make a leap, this episode is your permission slip. It's packed with honest insights, proven strategies, and the kind of motivation that will make you believe freedom isn't just a dream—it's a decision! HIGHLIGHTS AND KEY POINTS: [01:17] A short introduction about our guest Rebecca Muriuki and how she started in the world of short-term rental business far from home [04:24] Rebecca shares how a misaligned job and desire for time freedom led her to short-term rentals—and how her vision helped her act before crisis struck [09:33] Rebecca reflects on her intuitive decision-making and how her values-based foresight shaped her path [13:10] Rebecca shares how frustration in corporate life revealed the core values that now guide her business decisions [16:18] Rebecca opens up about the emotional shift after leaving corporate life and how mindset work helps her navigate uncertainty and find self-worth from within [21:44] How childhood loss fueled our need for external validation and how healing that pattern has helped us build true confidence and inner-driven success [26:02] How Rebecca supports women in entering the world of short-term rentals and unlocking the powerful benefits it offers [31:47] Rebecca highlights the hardest part for women entering STR especially around how long success actually takes [35:26] Rebecca's approach to aligning exit timelines with each woman's personal and professional goals [37:35] The myth of passive income in STRs and the importance of vetting property managers [43:04] The lightning round Golden Nuggets: “The only option that I could see, and that was being taught a lot, was to build a business. So that's what I did. I started building a business.” “It's such an interesting thing how sometimes when you look back hindsight, you realize some of the skill sets you don't actually realize you have.” “I really started to accept my values when I started to reflect on what were the things that totally pissed me off about my corporate job, things that annoyed me.” “Once I learned to live my life from the inside out and recognize that when I have internal abundance, the external abundance is a natural byproduct of it.” “What if this doesn't work? Yeah, there's a chance it couldn't work, but you also have the power to refine until it works.” “I would definitely put myself in rooms where you can see evidence that it's possible, because the environment has a big impact on your conditioning; which has a big impact on your thoughts, your belief system.” “Never compare yourself with others. Stay in your own lane. You are on your own journey.” Let's Connect! Podcast: https://richwomanrevolution.com/podcast Enjoyed the show? Subscribe, Rate, Review, Like, and Share!

A former British Army reconnaissance officer, Sam transitioned from military leadership to climate entrepreneurship, driven by a personal vision to contribute meaningfully during the climate crisis.After discovering carbon removal while producing the documentary Legion 44 in Kenya, Sam founded Flux to unlock Africa's immense potential for ERW, a natural process that sequesters CO₂ while improving crop yields and regenerating farmland. Under his leadership, Flux has formed key partnerships with governments like Nigeria's, launched pilot projects across multiple countries, and committed to removing one billion tonnes of CO₂ from the atmosphere.In this episode, Sam explores the science behind ERW, the social impact of regenerative agriculture on smallholder farmers, and how Flux is building one of the most promising carbon removal platforms on the continent.

The painting was a scene of a little park and a tiny footbridge crossing a stream that meandered through a forest that opened onto a meadow where stood a small cottage with an equally small door painted blue. Those gathered together turned around to tell the painter how much they admired his work but he was nowhere to be found. One of his friends said, "Look! There he is! In the painting!" He walked up the path that led to the door of the cottage, stopped, turned, smiled, and disappeared inside.Question: Imagine becoming so engrossed in your project that you end up disappearing into it in the same way.

The UN and human rights groups have accused the police of using excessive force during a wave of anti-government protests. Also on the programme, as Europe's top human rights court finds Russia responsible for the 2014 downing of a Malaysia Airlines flight over Ukraine, we speak to a relative of three of those killed in the crash; and how one Iranian singer fell in love with Spanish flamenco and now performs it in Farsi.

As chatbots continue to evolve, Lesley Stahl reports from Nairobi, Kenya, on the growing market of “humans in the loop” – workers around the world who help train AI for big American tech companies. Stahl speaks with digital workers who have spent hours in front of screens teaching and improving AI, but complain of poor working conditions, low pay and undertreated psychological trauma. Correspondent Jon Wertheim journeys by boat (and winch) into the world's smallest – and unlikeliest – state: the Principality of Sealand. Just off the English coast, and roughly the landmass of two tennis courts, it boasts a full-time population of one. It was built during World War II as a nautical fort, and later repurposed as a “pirate radio” station under its monarchs, the Bates family. Wertheim takes a tour of this micronation and its history of piracy, coups, countercoups and rogues. The name Werner Herzog may not be as recognizable as Spielberg or Scorsese, but over the last six decades, the German filmmaker has had a profound and far-reaching influence on the world of cinema. He's made over 70 features and documentaries, which are often dream-like explorations of nature's power, human frailties and the edges of sanity. Correspondent Anderson Cooper sits down with the enigmatic director to discuss his films, and his other roles as writer and actor.
