Mea Culpa welcomes the Lincoln Project advisor Stuart Stevens. Regarded as one of the Republican Party's most talented political gurus—a body of work that includes steering Mitt Romney's presidential campaign in 2012—Stevens may also be the GOP's most prominent defector when he abandoned his party as Trump rose to power. He despises the former president in a way that feels strikingly personal. While the Lincoln Project argues that Trump is perverting the Republican Party, Stevens doesn't think Trump has perverted anything: Trump is the Republican Party, Stevens believes, and the Republican Party is Trump. Stuart believes there is no reclaiming his former party, it must be burned to the ground. Or to use a Vietnam-era metaphor, the Village must be destroyed in order to save it. Reflecting on a four-decade career in American politics, Stevens is convinced that Trump was not an aberrant zigzag. He was fate. “I saw a lot of this stuff, but I just chose to believe that this kind of dark side was the recessive gene, not the dominant one,” he says. “I was wrong.” Stevens joins Mea Culpa to discuss his fabulous new book “The Conspiracy to End America: Five Ways My Old Party Is Driving Our Democracy to Autocracy.” The book is part memoir and part Jeremiad as Stevens unpacks how we are moving towards an autocratic end.
Science Fiction University returns at long last, with an extended deep dive into one of the oldest and most unsettling questions in the genre — who can you trust when the threat is wearing a human face? The episode traces the theme of trust through three very different versions of the same story: John W. Campbell's 1938 novella "Who Goes There?", Howard Hawks' 1951 Cold War-era adaptation "The Thing from Another World", and John Carpenter's 1982 masterpiece "The Thing" — showing how the same basic plot was transformed by the very different Americas that produced each version. Along the way there are detours through the nature of storytelling itself, the difference between trust and faith, the rise of the "mad scientist" trope, and why Carpenter's bleak, exhausted ending hits so differently than Campbell's optimistic one. If you've ever wondered why the 1982 version of The Thing feels so much more modern and unsettling than its predecessors, this episode will explain exactly why — and the answer has everything to do with Vietnam, Watergate, and the slow collapse of American institutional trust. Links for this episode: John W. Campbell's book/novella "Who Goes There?" (1938) is available from major ebook retailers. Also, many libraries offer a physical or digital borrowing option. "The Thing from Another World" (1951) is currently streaming on Criterion Channel, Tubi, The Roku Channel, YouTube, Amazon, and Apple TV."The Thing" (1982) is currently streaming on Amazon Prime, Apple TV, and YouTube.

#SerialKillers #TrueCrime #ClandestineOperationsWe are living in a three ringed psycho circus. It is filled full US government sponsored drug, dealing & drug abuse. This circus is filled to the brim with ritual child, abuse, political assassinations, & cult worship. The US government and there are three letter agencies are behind most of the massive problems that we see. They like to run government, sanctioned behavior modification & mind control programs such as MK ultra, which never truly ended or went away.One common misconception that is taking place even from within the inside of the conspiracy (schizo) circles is that all of these rings & operations are separate operations. They very well might be on a certain level, but when you zoom out far enough, you start to realize that this is all the very same circle. This mixture of three letter agencies, such as the CIA or the FBI are of course tangentially related. What we are discussing here though is a mixture between the Phoenix program out of Vietnam mixed with operation Gladio. Both of these programs came home.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/cult-of-conspiracy--5700337/support.

"The mission of a nonfiction writer is to get the damn thing done," says Wil Haygood, author of several books, including his latest The War Within A War: The Black Struggle in Vietnam and at Home.I'm so thrilled to welcome back Wil Haygood to the show to talk about and celebrate his latest book The War Within a War: The Black Struggle in Vietnam and at Home. It's published by Knopf.Wil is one of the most accomplished journalists and authors working in American letters and just a good-ass dude. He's the author of several books including The Butler (which was made into a movie), Showdown, The Harlem Renaissance, In Black and White, Sweet Thunder, and Colorization.He and I both have ties to the Goucher College MFA in Creative Nonfiction Program and he was generous enough to blurb my first book, Six Weeks in Saratoga, and it's those little things like that that can make an insecure, low-on-confidence person like myself feel like a king for a day.Had a great time catching up with Wil. He was on the podcast back on Ep. 295 when I interviewed him as part of Goucher's winter residency, so that's a fun one to check out. When we spoke, the U.S. had just started bombing Iran in a senseless barrage of violence that appears to have been a monumental loss for the U.S., so that is some of the context of this conversation as we talk about Vietnam and how this country still wrestles with the legacy of it. Wil is one of the good ones and so happy you get to hear him chat about: How he needs the research to be finished before he writes Exploring the riddles of America His encounters with the late great David Halberstam How luck and fortune come into play Shoeleather reporting Tape recorders and notebooks The stirring cover of this book Why this country still grapples with the Vietnam War Highlighting untold stories of women who served during Vietnam And what kept him going through the doubtStick around for a parting shot Chuckanut conference prep and an update on the forthcoming audio magazine.

This week on Shat the Movies, we're signing on with Good Morning, Vietnam (1987), the war comedy that promised nonstop laughs and delivered something stranger, sadder, and more complicated. Robin Williams turns in one of his most electric performances as Armed Forces Radio DJ Adrian Cronauer, bringing chaos to the airwaves and headaches to his superiors. Gene and Big D break down the comedy, the culture clash, and whether the movie's mix of humor, music, and Vietnam drama still works today. Is it a comedy, a drama, or just a Robin Williams showcase? Tune in and find out. Plot Summary:Good Morning, Vietnam (1987) is a comedy-drama directed by Barry Levinson and stars Robin Williams, Forest Whitaker, Bruno Kirby, and J. T. Walsh. Inspired by the real experiences of radio personality Adrian Cronauer, the film follows an irreverent military DJ who shakes up Armed Forces Radio in Saigon during the Vietnam War. Robin Williams earned an Academy Award nomination for Best Actor, and the film became one of the defining performances of his career, blending improvisational comedy with a more dramatic and reflective tone.

Welcome to the Millennial Special Anniversary Edition—we're celebrating 50 years of Star Wars by doing what we do best: connecting fictional universes to our very real problems. Then we get into the real meat: how the Prequel Trilogy—Episodes 1-3—basically predicted the slow-motion collapse of democracy. We draw the obvious parallels to modern executive overreach, the erosion of checks and balances, and how Congress just... stopped checking anything. We even dig into what George Lucas actually said about all this—spoiler: he was thinking about Vietnam, Nixon, and the way democracies don't get overthrown, they get given away. We're also connecting the dots between fictional servitude and the very real greed on display right now, complete with a deep dive into Walmart's electronic price tags that could—with existing tech—charge you a different price based on what the system thinks you can afford. On theme for this week, we're keeping our recommendations pop culture centric: The 'Family Guy' Star Wars parodies (Eric) and the 2009 film 'Fanboys' (Pam). In After Dark, we're getting personal with some lighter questions: What's your Roman Empire? Have you experienced a friendship breakup? What do you think you'll be like at 80?

You've been undercharging. You've been giving away too much. And every time a client pushes back on price, you fold before they even finish the sentence. Here's the truth: the problem isn't your pricing. It's your positioning. And the moment you stop apologizing for your value is the moment everything changes. Chris Do is the founder of The Futur and has taught hundreds of thousands of creatives, entrepreneurs, and builders how to charge what they're actually worth. He's built a career mastering the art of negotiation, personal branding, and pricing psychology, and in this episode, he's breaking down the exact frameworks that separate people who get paid like amateurs from people who get paid like experts. In this episode, you'll learn: Why charging more is more ethical than charging less and how underpricing hurts your clients, your team, and your ability to deliver real value The with or without you energy: how to walk into every negotiation knowing you're the prize and why neediness kills deals before they start Price bracketing: the exact way to present your pricing so clients anchor high and negotiate themselves up instead of down Why most entrepreneurs don't have a marketing problem, they have a positioning problem, and how being specific makes you more money than trying to serve everyone The mindset shift that lets you charge 10x more: understanding that money is a construct, scarcity creates value, and brand is what makes people pay premium prices for the exact same thing Stop selling yourself short. Start owning your value. The clients who can't afford you aren't your clients. The ones who can are waiting for you to believe it first. ___________ (00:00:00) Introduction: You Are the Master of Your Destiny, Not the Client (00:00:40) The Chris Do Move: How to Ask for What You're Worth Without Being Delusional (00:02:48) With or Without You Energy: The Mindset That Changes Every Deal (00:07:01) Charging More Is More Ethical Than Charging Less (00:08:53) The Pricing Game: Price Bracketing, Anchoring, and Never Justifying Your Number (00:12:50) How to Find Out What Clients Really Have: The Budget Excavation Method (00:17:01) The Manipulation Behind Luxury Goods: Stories, Scarcity, and Status (00:22:48) Money Is a Construct: The $800 Day Rate Story and Playing the Game (00:25:05) From Vietnam to Mercedes: Writing Your New Self-Story Through Mastery (00:27:16) What Is Brand and Why Does It Matter More Than Marketing (00:31:13) Don't Try to Be Better, Be Different: The Sea of Sameness Problem (00:32:25) The Imogene and Willie Test: What Story Are You Telling Yourself (00:35:18) Fake It Till You Make It or Believe It Till You Achieve It (00:37:41) You Don't Have a Marketing Problem, You Have a Positioning Problem (00:42:03) The Three Monsters: Perfection, Advice, and People Pleasing (00:49:15) Visualizing Success: Designers Are Futurists Who Imagine the Optimal Path (00:54:52) Passion Follows Mastery: The YouTube Origin Story (00:59:25) The Rich Owner Versus Poor Owner Mindset: Business Archetypes and Self-Sabotage (01:05:54) I'm My Own Number One Fan: Loving Yourself and Handling Trolls (01:09:37) Infusing Soul Into Your Brand: Flip the Cliché and Build Your World ___________ MORE FROM BIGDEAL

On this episode of The Hillsdale College Online Courses Podcast, Jeremiah and Juan discuss the legacies of Lyndon B. Johnson and Richard Nixon before introducing Wilfred McClay. Americans have overcome many challenges throughout our history, including the American Revolution, the Civil War, the Great Depression, two World Wars, and the Cold War. Studying the great stories from our past inspires us to preserve the blessings of liberty in our day. Now you can study these stories with Hillsdale College.

Lyndon B. Johnson entered office with an ambitious plan to expand the scope of government. Dubbed “The Great Society,” his efforts to transform domestic policy were stalled in part by his party’s opposition to America’s mounting commitments in Southeast Asia. While Richard Nixon achieved important diplomatic victories in Vietnam and China, the American economy suffered from low growth and inflation. Nixon’s resignation, and the failures of the Carter administration, diminished America’s confidence in the presidency.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Zayd Ayers Dohrn was born in a safe house during the decade his parents were in hiding. In 1969, Zayd's mother and father, Bill Ayers and Bernadine Dohrn, founded the revolutionary group called the Weather Underground. FBI Director J. Edgar Hoover declared Bernadine the most dangerous woman in America. In their lives underground, Ayers and Dohrn committed acts of violence like bombing government buildings to call attention to the Vietnam war. They also gave birth to two children. Zayd has written a memoir of those years called Dangerous, Dirty, Violent, and Young. We talk about political ideals and how the role of revolutionary urban guerrilla clashed with the idea of raising a family. "Now What?" is produced with the help of Steve Zimmer, Lucy Little and Jackie Schwartz. Audio production is by Nick Ciavatta.

On today's episode of the China Global Podcast, we're going to discuss the South China Sea. The past year has been marked by four intersecting dynamics: First, a sharp escalation of Chinese Coast Guard and maritime militia operations, especially against the Philippines. Second, a resumption of large-scale Chinese island construction after nearly a decade-long pause; Third, increasingly sophisticated Chinese legal and administrative moves to consolidate and institutionalize its claims; And fourth, a deepening of the US-Philippines military partnership and the emergence of a broader network involving US allies and partners from Europe and the Indo-Pacific. To discuss these trends, I'm delighted to have as my guest today, Dr. Collin Koh, who is a senior fellow at the Institute of Defense and Strategic Studies in the S.

Send us Fan MailIn this episode of Mondays Down Under, hosts Lee Salisbury, Shane Melrose, and Nick take listeners behind the scenes of awards season, conference travel, industry recognition, and the importance of networking within the swimming pool industry. From award ceremonies across Australia to upcoming conferences and trade shows, the conversation explores how professional development, industry engagement, and relationship building continue to shape successful pool businesses. Episode HighlightsAwards Season Across Australia and New ZealandLee shares her experience attending both the ACT and New South Wales industry awards ceremonies, celebrating outstanding achievements from pool builders, technicians, retailers, and service professionals. The hosts discuss the significance of industry recognition and the challenges many professionals face when considering self-nomination for awards. The Challenge of Self-NominationThe discussion explores why many highly qualified professionals hesitate to put themselves forward for awards, despite being deserving candidates. The hosts examine potential alternatives, including peer nominations, and discuss ways industry organizations might encourage greater participation from technicians, retailers, and service professionals. What Really Happens Behind the Judging ProcessLee offers insight into the award judging process, explaining how applications are reviewed, scored, and evaluated by multiple judges. The conversation highlights the extensive effort that goes into ensuring fairness and recognizing excellence across a wide range of industry categories. Recognizing Excellence in the Pool IndustrySeveral award winners and finalists are recognized throughout the episode, including discussions about the qualities that separate outstanding businesses and professionals from the rest of the field. The hosts emphasize the importance of technical expertise, customer service, mentorship, and industry leadership. The Value of Industry ConferencesThe conversation shifts to conference season, with discussions about supplier conferences, trade events, educational opportunities, and networking experiences. The hosts share stories from conferences held in destinations including New Zealand, Fiji, Vietnam, Thailand, Israel, and beyond. Why Networking MattersBeyond product training and education, the hosts explain how conferences create opportunities to build relationships, exchange ideas, learn from peers, and develop lifelong friendships within the industry. These connections often prove just as valuable as the formal educational sessions themselves. Looking Ahead to SplashWith the upcoming Splash Trade Show approaching, the hosts preview educational sessions, industry forums, awards presentations, networking events, and opportunities for listeners to connect with the Talking Pools team in person. Winter Recharge Before Summer ReturnsAs the southern hemisphere enters winter, the discussion concludes with a reminder about the importance of rest, recovery, and preparing for the next busy season. The hosts encourage business owners and staff alike to use the quieter months to recharge and invest in professional development. Key Takeaways Industry awards recognize far more than popularity—they reward professionalism, technical expertise, and dedication. Many deserving professionals never enter awards due to reluctance around self-promotion. Conferences provide education, networking, and valuable business-building opportunities. Strong industry relationships often lead to better business outcomes and lifelong professional connections. The quieter winter months offer an important opportunity to recharge before the demands of the next season arrive.

Sadly, 22 vets per day commit suicide, approximately 67,500 vets are homeless and thousands struggle with everyday life after service. What we hope to accomplish is providing a fun place to gather that will have a similar feel to the conversations that happen at the VFW or American Legion between vets. Since the latest generations of vets are not really going to these places anymore, we are making it happen online. We believe that the sense of community will help some who struggle, while providing stories about the good times that we can all laugh at!An additional part of this show is capturing the oral history of the military over the past few decades, so if you happen to know a veteran who served during WW2, Korean War or Vietnam eras, we would love to hear from them. Obviously, we want to hear stories from all eras, but we have special respect for the older generations.

In the headlines today, there are growing calls for stricter controls on foreign condo purchases, also, the international departure fee is rising at six Thai airports, in Narathiwat a child's warning helps police avoid a bomb attack, in ASEAN news Vietnam's tourism boom is placing more pressure on Thailand, and a little later we have some foreigners behaving badly in the form of a man in Pattaya going on a rampage and requiring ten police officers to subdue him.
When photographer Shivam Pandey first began working as a fixer for visiting photographers in India, he was positioned on the edges of other people's stories—helping shape access, logistics, and connection without yet fully claiming his own photographic voice. Over time, that proximity to image-making became a catalyst for his own practice. Based in Kolkata, Pandey has since developed a distinctive photographic approach rooted in observation, street-based storytelling, and a deep sensitivity to the rhythms of daily life in India. What makes his journey especially compelling is how organically it has unfolded—from supporting international workshops to building his own voice as a photographer and educator. His work reflects an insider's understanding of place while also carrying the curiosity of someone still discovering it through the camera. In recent years, he has expanded his practice into leading photographic workshops through Kolkata Photo Tours, sharing both his knowledge of the city and his perspective on how to see it more deeply. Our conversation explores that evolution—how teaching, photographing, and living within the dense visual landscape of Kolkata continue to shape his work and identity as a photographer.

Cattle Industry News JBS USA has announced plans to close two facilities as part of an effort to improve efficiency and focus on future growth. The company will shut down its beef production plant in Pennsylvania, and its value-added processing facility in Memphis, Tennessee. JBS says the move is part of a larger strategy to modernize operations, improve efficiency, and expand production of value-added food products. The company says production from the two facilities will be shifted to other JBS operations, and customers should not see any disruption in supply. The announcement comes after JBS invested in facilities in Texas, Georgia, and Iowa to expand prepared foods production, modernize plants, and improve efficiency. Earlier this year, the company also combined its beef and case-ready businesses to create a more streamlined operation. The JBS CEO says JBS continues to invest heavily in the United States and the future of food production, while making sure its operations remain competitive and efficient. The company says consumer demand for protein remains strong and believes these changes will help position JBS for long-term growth. Last fall, Tyson Foods permanently closed its beef processing facility in Lexington, Nebraska, eliminating approximately 3,200 jobs and removing nearly 5% of total U.S. beef slaughter capacity. More recently, labor disputes have emerged at several major processing facilities. Approximately 1,700 workers at Cargill's beef processing plant in Fort Morgan, Colorado, were locked out after contract negotiations between the company and union representatives failed to produce a ratified agreement. The Fort Morgan facility accounts for nearly 5% of total U.S. beef production. JBS also faced labor challenges earlier this year when nearly 4,000 workers at its Greeley, Colorado, beef plant participated in a strike before ultimately approving a new labor contract. REFERENCE: https://meatingplace.com/jbs-to-close-beef-plant-value-added-facility/?utm_source=omeda&utm_medium=email&utm_cid=1103020073&utm_campaign=MTGMCD260614015&utm_date=20260615-0300 https://www.northernag.net/jbs-announces-closure-of-beef-production-plant-and-value-added-facility/ New World Screwworm Update Here's the latest on New World Screwworm. As of Monday, June 15th, the total number of domestic cases is now at 12, 11 are considered active and 1 inactive with 0 active wildlife and feral cases. Counties in Texas include Sutton, an inactive case discovered in a sheep. Edwards county with cases discovered in cattle and goats. Tom Green County, a case in cattle. Zavala County, cases in cattle. Gillespie (guh-LES-pee) County, a case in goats. And La Salle County, cases in cattle. In New Mexico, Lea County had that case in a dog. Livestock and pet owners, wildlife game farms, producers, land users, remember to check stock often for open wounds and lethargic animals. Report anything unusual and head to screwworm.gov for the latest confirmation maps, current status, treatment and U.S. readiness plans. Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins says the USDA is closely monitoring the New World screwworm situation and what it could mean for the current ban on live cattle imports from Mexico. Speaking at a press conference in Texas, Rollins was asked whether the U.S. could reopen the border to Mexican cattle imports now that New World screwworm has been detected in Texas. Rollins responded that the issue is "not lost on me" and that USDA will continue to watch the data very closely. The comments come after USDA confirmed several New World screwworm cases in Texas, including cases found in cattle, sheep, goats and a dog. Federal officials say surveillance, quarantines, treatment efforts, and sterile fly releases are being used to contain and eliminate the pest. The U.S. suspended imports of live cattle, horses, and bison from Mexico in May of 2025 because of the northward spread of New World screwworm in Mexico. Before the border closure, the United States imported about 1.25 million head of cattle from Mexico each year, most of them feeder cattle headed to U.S. feedlots. Some livestock industry groups have questioned whether the ban remains effective, noting that screwworm can spread through wildlife, pets, and other animals—not just cattle. Producers and feedlot operators have also said the closure has tightened cattle supplies and increased costs. Rollins did not provide any timeline for reopening the border but said USDA will continue evaluating the situation. Meanwhile, USDA's eradication efforts include expanded trapping programs, movement controls, and the release of sterile flies from facilities in Texas, Mexico, and Panama.

Through the first four months of 2026, U.S. beef exports totaled just over 365,000 metric tons, down 11 percent from a year ago. Export value fell 7 percent to $3.13 billion, as tight cattle supplies and record-high global beef prices continue to impact trade. There is some positive news. Following a summit between President Trump and the Chinese President, China renewed export licenses for most U.S. beef plants in May. The U.S. beef industry had been largely shut out of China since March of 2025 during the early stages of the trade dispute. However, industry leaders say it remains unclear how quickly beef shipments to China will recover. Additional trade barriers still need to be resolved before exports can fully rebound. U.S. Meat Export Federation President Dan Halstrom says the renewed plant registrations are encouraging, but more obstacles must be addressed before U.S. beef regains its position in the Chinese market. Outside of China, demand for U.S. beef remains steady. Export volume to the rest of the world is roughly unchanged from a year ago, while export value is up 7 percent. Major buyers including South Korea, Japan, and Canada have purchased less U.S. beef this year. Mexico, however, continues to be a strong customer, with purchases holding steady and demand for variety meats increasing. Several markets are showing strong growth, including Taiwan, Vietnam, Indonesia, the Dominican Republic, the Bahamas, Peru, Colombia, and Guatemala. Halstrom says global demand for U.S. beef remains resilient despite high prices and limited supplies. He notes challenges remain, including weak foreign currencies and higher energy costs that are affecting consumer spending in many countries.

Born in a farmhouse with no electricity, losing his mother at birth, and growing up in a one-room schoolhouse with torn dictionaries, Colonel Charles Cone had every reason to believe life would keep him small. Instead, he spent 30 years in the U.S. military, became a Navy and then Air Force pilot, flew in three wars, earned the first computer science degree ever awarded at Texas A&M, and is still flying and working out with a trainer at 100 years old. In this episode, Charles shares the remarkable journey behind his autobiography, A Burning Desire to Fly, and how a “dumb farm kid” with hay fever, no role models, and almost no resources built a life of service, courage, and quiet excellence. We explore the defining moments that shaped him: the psychologist who wrote “a burning desire to fly” on his file and unintentionally gave him a lifelong mantra; being assigned to a plane he didn't want, deciding to excel anyway, and becoming the youngest patrol plane commander in the Pacific; surviving a harrowing typhoon flight with almost no fuel and no navigation; and the day his crew including his roommate died in a crash on the very day he was to leave the Navy, a tragedy that led, through another twist of fate, to meeting his future wife. Charles reflects on living through World War II, Korea, Vietnam, the Cuban Missile Crisis, and the entire arc of aviation and computing from punch cards and 1K memory to smartwatches and self-flying aircraft while holding onto simple, old-school values of duty, faith, and persistence. https://youtu.be/8djRJrN-p00?si=D-oDT1g35hKdBEFT Charles also shares the “unflashy” secrets behind his longevity and impact: decades of disciplined physical fitness, continuing to learn and contribute long after retirement, saying yes to service (from Lions Club projects to flying mercy missions), and treating every assignment even the ones he didn't want as worth doing to the best of his ability. If you're feeling stuck, discouraged, or tempted to coast into later life, this conversation is a living rebuttal: a 100-year case study in why you don't quit, why you keep your body and mind engaged, and why, as Charles sums it up in his favorite quote and life lesson, you “never give up.” Quotes: "I'm just an ordinary old jerk, and it's kind of surprising to me when I wake up now and then and say, ‘Well, you're what they call an author,' and you're not really an author, you're just a plain old guy." "I guess I realized that my persistence had gotten me a long way; there was that sort of thing of not giving up. Don't give up, and I still say that today." "All of us get discouraged at one time or another in some circumstance, and if you can just sit back and get rid of that discouragement and say, ‘Well, let's get on with it, let's do what needs to be done,' if it means quitting and changing, change, but don't just fret about it."

Le 17 décembre 1950, le général Jean de Lattre de Tassigny, héros de la Seconde Guerre mondiale, débarque à Saigon pour tenter de redresser la situation française en Indochine. La France est en effet en grande difficulté face à la guérilla menée par le Viet Minh de Ho Chi Minh, soutenu par la Chine communiste. De Lattre, surnommé le "Roi Jean" par ses hommes, arrive avec les pleins pouvoirs civils et militaires. Déterminé à inverser la tendance, il met en place une stratégie audacieuse, n'hésitant pas à recourir à des armes controversées comme le napalm. Mais la guerre prend un tournant personnel pour le général lorsque son fils Bernard est mortellement blessé au combat. De Lattre n'en reste pas moins déterminé à gagner cette "guerre d'usure" contre le Viet Minh. Il part alors plaider la cause française à Washington, obtenant le soutien financier et militaire des États-Unis. Malgré ces succès tactiques, De Lattre sait que la victoire ne sera pas aisée. Avant de rentrer en France pour la dernière fois, il prédit qu'une "catastrophe" peut survenir en Indochine. Deux ans plus tard, c'est en effet la débâcle de Dien Bien Phu, marquant la fin de l'emprise française sur le Vietnam. Le général de Lattre de Tassigny n'aura pas vu l'issue de ce conflit qu'il a tant tenté d'infléchir, emporté par la maladie quelques mois seulement après son retour.Plongez dans l'histoire des grands personnages et des évènements marquants qui ont façonné notre monde !

After a week of technical difficulties, we're catching up on everything we missed. We dive into a heated Spurs vs. Knicks Finals reaction, the Brunson MVP debate, and local Vegas comedians that can make it. We also talk about the "nepotism" era of the NBA, the reality of moving overseas for a better life, and a deep dive into the recent local elections and why "establishment" politics keep winning. Plus, our take on the viral Carmelo Anthony case out of Texas. #Views7Network #VegasPodcast #NBAFinals #SpursVsKnicks #LocalPolitics #PodcastHighlights Timestamps: 00:00:15 – The "Cool Uncle" at the Gym 00:11:40 – Nepotism in the NBA: The Bronny & Boozer Era 00:18:25 – Vegas Local Scene: Lip Lock & Laugh of Trash 00:24:45 – The State of Comedy: Missing the "Scary Movie" Era 00:35:20 – Spurs vs. Knicks Finals Heat & Ticket Price Debate 00:55:10 – The OG Anunoby vs. Jalen Brunson MVP Debate 01:07:55 – Moving to Vietnam for a Better Life? 01:23:45 – The "Modern" Job Hunt & Amazon Saga 01:35:50 – Local Politics: "Group Think" vs. The Establishment 02:04:10 – The Carmelo Anthony (Texas) Case Breakdown

In the setting of Londinium, 92 AD, Gaius and Germanicus contrast the Roman "triumph"—a sacred ritual bonding the citizenry to the sacrifice of war—with the failing 2026 American way of war. Germanicus argues that for a republic to remain healthy, war must function as "theater" that allows the people to embrace the experience and sacrifice of their soldiers vicariously. He notes that while World War II and even the initial stages of the Iraq War utilized media and film to create this vital national connection, current conflicts have become opaque "vanity projects." This lack of transparency has severed the sacred bond between the leadership and the people, leaving an isolated "imperial court" to pursue its own interests disconnected from the republic.

Ron "Toes" Cooper grew up silent, insecure, and certain he'd never amount to much. Then four men believed in him — and everything changed. Toes went on to fly the F-4 Phantom in over 300 combat missions in Vietnam, dodge a MiG-21 missile by a split second, participate in the rescue of a downed pilot who survived 23 days alone in hostile territory, and command a squadron. In this episode, Toes brings us into the cockpit and into the chaos of combat — and then draws a straight line from those experiences to the leadership lessons that every team, every organization, and every person who has ever doubted themselves desperately needs to hear.Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/the-fighter-pilot-podcast/donations
We're all hooked on something. Here's the way out, according to an MD who became a beloved nun. Sister Dang Nghiem, MD, ("Sister D") was born in 1968 in Vietnam during the Tet Offensive, the daughter of a Vietnamese mother and an American soldier. She lost her mother at the age of twelve and immigrated to the United States at the age of seventeen with her brother. Living in various foster homes, she learned English and went on to earn a medical degree from the University of California – San Francisco. After suffering further tragedy and loss, she quit her practice as a doctor to travel to Plum Village monastery in France founded by Zen Master Thich Nhat Hanh, where she was ordained a nun in 2000, and given the name Dang Nghiem, which means adornment with nondiscrimination. She is the author of a memoir, Healing: A Woman's Journey from Doctor to Nun (2010), and Mindfulness as Medicine: A Story of Healing and Spirit (2015). This episode is part of our monthlong Do Life Better series. We talk about: Sister D's Buddhist version of the 12 step program, which is a combination of two canonical buddhist lists: the 4 Noble Truths and the Eightfold Path How willpower doesn't fit into the Buddhist path of understanding and working with addiction How to change addiction at its root Practical applications of mindfulness Self-compassion The importance of social support Her thoughts on our relationships to our phones And more Related Episodes: This Episode Will Make You Stronger | Sister Dang Nghiem The Science Of Manifestation | James Doty Sign up for Dan's newsletter here Follow Dan on social: Instagram, TikTok Ten Percent Happier online bookstore Subscribe to our YouTube Channel Our favorite playlists on: Anxiety, Sleep, Relationships, Most Popular Episodes Full Shownotes: https://www.meditatehappier.com/podcast/tph/sister-d-899 Additional Resources: Plum Village Deer Park Monastery Deer Park Monastery YouTube channel For an exclusive offering related to this episode, go to www.DanHarris.com
