Podcasts about Irony

The 94 WIP Morning Show thinks it's ironic that Nick Castellanos made the last out of the game since he was benched the day before. Joe DeCamara wonders why Castellanos wasn't replaced in last night's game, like he was days earlier. Devan Kaney got some responses on Twitter about some stats she posted about Castellanos.

When should we remember difficult and divisive histories?  After a career of covering conflicts around the globe, writer and political analyst David Reiff offers his thoughts on the question. In Praise of Forgetting: Historical Memory and its Ironies, Rieff posits that in some cases there is a consensus around the need to remember past crimes.  More often, however, there is no agreement.  The only way out of messy conflicts is to agree to forgive and forget.  Find out more about possibilities and perils of memory on the July 1st episode of Realms of Memory. 

The guys discuss why you can never have too many airbags when there's a goat in the car, how $200 will not only get Nana a box but also a cosmetic touch-up, and when having a loving husband willing to crap in your driveway can save you $17,500 for a night out. 

In the first of a three-part series on Richard Rorty's Contingency, Irony, and Solidarity (1989), Let Us Think About It delves into the concept of contingency. Host Ryder Richards guides listeners through Rorty's radical argument that language, selfhood, and liberal communities are not grounded in universal truths but are crafted through historical chance, like tools in a dynamic toolkit. Drawing on Chapter 1, Ryder explores how language, far from mirroring reality, builds truths through evolving vocabularies, with examples like the French Revolution and Donald Davidson's “passing theories.” Chapter 2 reveals the self as a contingent construction, sculpted through redescriptions, as seen in Freud and Proust. Chapter 3 examines liberal societies as experimental creations, sustained by imaginative solidarity rather than fixed foundations, referencing Isaiah Berlin and Judith Shklar. While admiring Rorty's vivid metaphors and provocative ideas, Ryder critiques his potentially reductive view, questioning whether freedom alone can ensure moral progress. Packed with direct quotes and punchy insights, this episode sets the stage for upcoming discussions on irony and solidarity. Tune in to rethink how we create our world with the tools of language!

“Let us now sing the praises of famous men, our ancestors in their generations.” Thursday • 6/12/2025 •Thursday of the Week of Pentecost (Proper 5) This morning's Scriptures are: Psalm 70; Psalm 71; Ecclesiasticus 44:19–45:5; 2 Corinthians 12:1–10; Luke 19:28–40 This morning's Canticles are: following the OT reading, Canticle 8 (“The Song of Moses,” Exodus 15, BCP, p. 85); following the Epistle reading, Canticle 19 (“The Song of the Redeemed,” Revelation 15:3–4, BCP, p. 94)

Today in 1841, a newspaper publisher from Belgium put out an article that included a mark he called “un point d'ironie.” The history of punctuation is full of efforts to choose a mark that would make it clear to readers when the writer is being ironic or sarcastic. Plus: a couple in Sweden finds a way to make their home more eco-friendly while keeping them warm during the country's very cold winters. Can irony really be conveyed with punctuation?

The Biblical book of Ester does not mention God once. However, that does't mean God is absent. Irony is used a lot in this book to show God working through human interactions.

The guys discuss how in the 1950's you could hijack an aircraft every two years with zero repercussions, when a couples retreat to a horse ranch will boost your husband's confidence, and why stalactites and stalagmites without a tram will kill your reviews.

In this episode, Ashley Monk discusses the paradox of outsourcing growth in marketing. She emphasizes that while agencies can assist in achieving growth, the core belief, ownership, and transformation must come from within the organization. The conversation explores the importance of clear expectations, the role of belief in driving growth, and the distinction between renting tactics and achieving true transformation. Ashley provides actionable strategies for organizations to effectively partner with agencies while maintaining ownership of their growth outcomes.   Takeaways You can't fully outsource growth; it requires internal belief. Partnerships thrive on clear expectations and outcomes. Belief in a vision is crucial for growth. Outsourcing ownership can lead to relinquishing outcomes. Tactics can be rented, but transformation is unique to the organization. Growth requires time, consistency, and monitoring. Understanding the 'why' behind growth goals is essential. Sharing outcomes with partners fosters collaboration. Creating reasonable expectations is key to successful partnerships. Growth is a journey that involves course correction and alignment.

On today's show, we delve into revelations from Jake Tapper's new book, which alleges a significant cognitive decline in former President Joe Biden—claims that, if true, were actively downplayed or ignored by major media outlets. What makes this particularly ironic is that Tapper himself is a longtime member of the very media establishment he now accuses of a cover-up. For years, he and his network largely avoided or dismissed concerns about Biden's mental fitness, raising questions about selective accountability and media complicity. Freedom Marketplace: https://freedommarketplace.net The Stack: https://www.toddhuffshow.com/stack-of-stuff Email: todd@toddhuffshow.comPhone: 317.210.2830Follow us on…Instagram: @toddhuffshowFacebook: The Todd Huff ShowTwitter: @toddhuffshowLinkedIn: The Todd Huff ShowTikTok: @toddhuffshowSupport Our Partners:https://www.toddhuffshow.com/partners Links:https://www.mypillow.com/todd Promo Code: TODDhttps://mystore.com/toddhttps://soltea.com - Promo Code TODD for $29.95 off your first orderEaston University - https://www.eastonuniversity.comRed, White, & Brand – TEXT 317-210-2830 for more information.

About Matt Landman:—First the truth will upset you, but then it will set you free.I never thought I would be an activist but I guess that's life, one door closes another door opens. For me I'd worked so many different jobs and spent so much of my life in a classroom that I just wanted to get grounded and learn about growing food. I worked on a farm and there I opened my eyes for the first time to the FrankenSkies we never knew. From the day I realized something abnormal was occurring in our skies, I was driven to do something about it. Through my devotion and passion, I've realized incredible traction via social media. My goal is very simple, it is unity. Truth is all embracing and our strength comes from this bond we all share.—00:00 Introduction to Matt Landman and Geoengineering Activism01:11 The Beginnings of Activism and Early Achievements01:41 Documentary: Frank and Skies02:46 The Reality of Geoengineering and Media Manipulation04:25 The Hegelian Dialectic and Climate Change05:33 Net Zero and the Misconceptions of Carbon Emissions07:44 The Truth About Smart Cities and Energy Efficiency21:32 The Dangers of Smart Meters and Lithium-Ion Batteries23:18 The Irony of Electric Vehicles and Green Energy27:41 Cognitive Dissonance and the Green Movement29:50 The Push for Geoengineering as a Solution36:28 The Role of Bill Gates in Geoengineering40:15 Historical Context and Weaponization of Weather43:17 Modern Examples of Weather Manipulation46:35 The Mechanics of Weather Engineering50:23 Scientific Method and Weather Control50:40 HAARP and Weather Manipulation52:21 Chemtrails and Toxic Substances57:47 Geoengineering and Public Deception01:10:22 Activism and Public Awareness01:18:03 Q&A SessionSlides for this podcast, and AI summaries of all of my podcasts: https://tomn.substack.com/p/podcast-summarieshttps://frankenskies.com/https://frankenskies2.com/Matt's website, www.ActualActivists.comMatt's EMF clothing line www.SperoGear.com=========My Linktree: https://linktr.ee/tomanelson1

Melvyn Bragg and guests discuss one of the great figures in world literature. The French playwright Molière (1622-1673) began as an actor, aiming to be a tragedian, but he was stronger in comedy, touring with a troupe for 13 years until Louis XIV summoned him to audition at the Louvre and gave him his break. It was in Paris and at Versailles that Molière wrote and performed his best known plays, among them Tartuffe, Le Misanthrope and Le Malade Imaginaire, and in time he was so celebrated that French became known as The Language of Molière.With Noel Peacock Emeritus Marshall Professor in French Language and Literature at the University of GlasgowJan Clarke Professor of French at Durham UniversityAnd Joe Harris Professor of Early Modern French and Comparative Literature at Royal Holloway, University of LondonProducer: Simon TillotsonReading list:David Bradby and Andrew Calder (eds.), The Cambridge Companion to Molière (Cambridge University Press, 2006)Jan Clarke (ed.), Molière in Context (Cambridge University Press, 2022)Georges Forestier, Molière (Gallimard, 2018)Michael Hawcroft, Molière: Reasoning with Fools (Oxford University Press, 2007)John D.

That pervasive feeling of self-doubt and insecurity you believe you are not deserving of your achievements and fear being exposed as a fraud known as imposter syndrome is especially common among writers and other creatives who often grapple with the vulnerability inherent in sharing their work with the world. But perhaps your imposter syndrome is actually a positive sign about your progression as a writer. That's the topic of this solo episode in which Mark reflects upon that.

Since we've come to a moment of (perhaps!) profound irony as Statius misquotes and even misinterprets Virgil's AENEID to find his way to salvation, we should perhaps pause and talk a bit about irony, both as an artistic concept and specifically as tool our poet, Dante, uses to make meaning in his text.In this interpolated (or interstitial?) episode of WALKING WITH Dante, we'll talk about the two basic forms of irony: simple (or verbal) and situational. Then we'll talk about three types of situational irony: dramatic, cosmic, and what I like to call “creative” irony.

let's explore the irony-sincerity dichotomy!!

After Canada's shocking Conservative defeat, Dr. Mike Hart sits down with The Rogue Lawyer, Phillip Millar to dissect what went wrong, who's to blame, and how to fix our cultural crisis. They kick things off by unpacking the election results - how a lead slipped away, why young people seem so checked out, and what it says about where Canada's headed.

Still trying. Still adapting. Still Great — on its own peculiar terms.Support the showAttitude. Imagination. Execution. Create Without Frontiers.

As Donald Trump faces a wave of unprecedented legal challenges, recent revelations point to a coordinated effort by House Democrats and state attorneys general to target him and his allies. Weekly legal strategy sessions involving over 75 Democratic lawmakers have sparked concerns of weaponized justice. At the center of the controversy is New York AG Letitia James, who led the landmark fraud case against Trump—only to now face accusations of committing similar mortgage fraud herself, including allegedly misrepresenting her primary residence and falsely listing her father as her spouse. Critics argue this mounting irony and aggressive lawfare are less about justice and more about preventing Trump's return to power.
