He's also the founder and director of Khthon, a non-governmental organization that uses open source intelligence, satellite imagery, and digital analysis to document war crimes and locate mass graves in conflict zones.

Intrigue in the ninja academy continues as the infiltrators (and the... counter-infiltrators, I suppose) try to suss each other out and secure their own mysterious goals. Jiro and Seiko both try to make some personal connections (just not with each other, thankfully), Shiori and Mina struggle for control of the school data (and the loyalty of girl goons), and it all culminates in a big rooftop fight where everyone sucker-punches each other. And then at the end I make a poor choice of words and the people who I THOUGHT were my friends plunge us all into Comedy Tartarus. C'est la vie.

Fluent Fiction - Serbian: Mystery, Trust, and Art: Springtime Intrigue in Beograd Find the full episode transcript, vocabulary words, and more:fluentfiction.com/sr/episode/2026-06-04-22-34-02-sr Story Transcript:Sr: У београдској полицијској станици, у пролеће када је град био препун људи, владала је права гужва.En: In the beogradskoj police station, during the spring when the city was teeming with people, there was a real crowd.Sr: Светла су била јака, телефони су звучали и полицајци су испијали кафу.En: The lights were bright, phones were ringing, and the police officers were drinking coffee.Sr: Милош, дилер уметнина, нервозан, седео је у чекаоници.En: Miloš, an art dealer, sat nervously in the waiting room.Sr: Имао је тајни разлог што је овде – нестала слика га је повезивала с породичним мистеријама.En: He had a secret reason for being there—the missing painting connected him to family mysteries.Sr: Јована је ушла у просторију, полицијска значка јој се светлуцала на сунцу које је продирало кроз прозоре.En: Jovana entered the room, her police badge glinting in the sunlight streaming through the windows.Sr: Била је одлучна да пронађе украдену слику.En: She was determined to find the stolen painting.Sr: Али, истовремено, пазила је на Милоша.En: However, at the same time, she kept an eye on Miloš.Sr: Знала је да има своје разлоге и није му посве веровала.En: She knew he had his reasons and didn't fully trust him.Sr: Ненад, власник галерије, био је очајан.En: Nenad, the gallery owner, was desperate.Sr: Репутација галерије је била у питању, а слика која је нестала била је од велике вредности.En: The gallery's reputation was at stake, and the painting that was missing was of great value.Sr: За њега, то је био ударац који није могао да прихвати.En: For him, it was a blow he couldn't accept.Sr: Милош је понудио Јовани помоћ.En: Miloš offered Jovana his help.Sr: "Нека моја сазнања могу бити од користи", рекао је.En: "Some of my knowledge might be useful," he said.Sr: У стварности, требао му је приступ полицијској истрази, да сазна више о слици која је привлачила само њему познате интересе.En: In reality, he needed access to the police investigation to learn more about the painting that attracted interests known only to him.Sr: Док су заједно истраживали, Милош је кроз магловите инфериције стигао до неочекиваног места – старе складишне зграде.En: While they investigated together, Miloš followed vague inferences to an unexpected place—a old warehouse building.Sr: Чим је ушао, осетио је познати трептај у стомаку.En: As soon as he entered, he felt a familiar flutter in his stomach.Sr: Тамо је била – слика.En: There it was—the painting.Sr: Али, до ње је био тежак пут препун ризика.En: But reaching it was a difficult path full of risks.Sr: Одлучио је да жртвује своје планове и врати је галерији.En: He decided to sacrifice his plans and return it to the gallery.Sr: Знао је да тако ризикује да његова тајна изађе на видело, али је прихватио последице.En: He knew that by doing so, he risked his secret being exposed, but he accepted the consequences.Sr: Када је слика била на свом месту у галерији, осетио је олакшање.En: When the painting was back in its place at the gallery, he felt relieved.Sr: Јована је приметила промену код Милоша.En: Jovana noticed a change in Miloš.Sr: Његово залагање, иако делимично подстакнуто личним разлозима, вратио је украдену уметнину.En: His dedication, although partly driven by personal reasons, had returned the stolen artwork.Sr: Од тог тренутка, почела је да му верује.En: From that moment, she began to trust him.Sr: Милош, који је до тада држао чврсте везе с прошлошћу, напокон је пронашао мир у садашњости.En: Miloš, who had until then held tight ties to the past, finally found peace in the present.Sr: Научио је да пусти и заборави старе огорчености.En: He learned to let go and forget old grudges.Sr: А Јована, спремна за нове изазове, научила је вредност поверења и заједничког рада.En: And Jovana, ready for new challenges, learned the value of trust and collaboration.Sr: Тако је у полицијској станици, у то пролеће, случај добио срећан крај.En: Thus, in the police station, that spring, the case had a happy ending.Sr: Живот у Београду наставио је да тече својим током, али и Милош и Јована знали су да су постали бољи људи, захваљујући том неочекиваном искуству.En: Life in Beogradu continued to flow in its course, but both Miloš and Jovana knew they had become better people thanks to that unexpected experience.

In October 1943, the Gripsholm—a Swedish ocean liner—and the Teia Maru—a Japanese troop ship—sat in Mormugao, a port in Portuguese India. There, the two ships exchanged their passengers: Allied civilians stuck in Japanese territory after Pearl Harbor , and an assortment of Japanese, Japanese-American, and other Japanese-ethnic people from the Americas.The trade capped a long and fraught diplomatic exchange between the U.S. and Japan, two countries at war. Evelyn Iritani's book Safe Passage: The Untold Story of Diplomatic Intrigue, Betrayal, and the Exchange of American and Japanese Civilians by Sea During World War II (Farrar, Straus and Giroux, 2026) tells the story of how this exchange came about: How U.S. civilians tried to survive in Japan or occupied Hong Kong, or how the U.S. government pressured Japanese Americans, housed in internment camps, to accept repatriation to Japan, a country many had never known. Evelyn is a Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist. Her previous book, An Ocean Between Us: The Changing Relationship of Japan and the United States Told in Four Stories From the Life of An American Town (William Morrow and Company: 1994), won a Washington Governor's Writers Day Award. Evelyn began her career at the Seattle Post-Intelligencer and moved to the Los Angeles Times in 1995 to cover international economics. Her reporting garnered numerous awards, including the 2004 Pulitzer Prize for National Reporting and the George Polk Award for Economics Reporting for a series she co-authored on Wal-Mart.She can be found on her website, Facebook, LinkedIn and Instagram.

The NFL schedule leaks have Evan and Tiki fired up, especially with the Jets potentially opening against the Titans in a game that already feels loaded with pressure. From prime time complaints to revenge game fatigue, they break down why fans obsess over every matchup before a single snap is played. The conversation also hits the Knicks' wait for OG Anunoby, Jalen Brunson's humble response to being called a star, Francisco Lindor's uncertain injury timeline, and the Mets trying to build momentum before the Subway Series. Evan and Tiki mix sharp analysis with fan frustration as New York sports enters a stretch filled with questions, hope, and plenty of overreaction.

1. Spirit Airlines Bailout Debate A proposed U.S. government bailout of Spirit Airlines ($500 million for ~90% ownership) was considered but ultimately rejected. Government should not own or run private companies. Bailouts are seen as wasteful and ineffective (compared to “burning money” metaphor). Argument that free-market capitalism is more effective than government control. 2. Impact of Spirit Airlines Collapse Emphasis on human consequences, especially job losses. A retired pilot missed his final flight due to shutdown. Received a symbolic sendoff from Southwest Airlines—highlighting solidarity and empathy within the industry. Displaced workers may find jobs elsewhere, but hardship remains. 3. Tucker Carlson He spreads misinformation and makes controversial or extreme statements. Allegations that he: Attacks political figures (especially Ted Cruz). Promotes or normalizes extremist views. Makes contradictory or false claims in interviews.

Comparisons involving extremism (Nazism, Holocaust references). Sympathizes with authoritarian regimes or controversial figures. Criticizes U.S. policies and capitalism.

Criticized for: Calling U.S. actions “illegal” or harmful. Describing actions against Venezuela’s Maduro as “kidnapping.” Opposing viewpoint: Siding with communist regimes over U.S. interests. 7.
