Podcasts about isolated

Two explanations circulated immediately after the March to Save America on January 6, 2021 turned into a riot: a mob manipulated by a demagogue, or ordinary citizens defending democracy against a stolen election. Konstantin Sonin, David Van Dijcke, and Austin Wright have used anonymised location data from forty million mobile devices to investigate why the protests escalated so dramatically.No surprise: partisanship was the strongest predictor of attendance, proximity to Proud Boys chapters and use of the far-right social network Parler also increased participation. But political isolation amplified the movement: the communities most over-represented among those who traveled to Washington were small Republican enclaves surrounded by Democrat-leaning areas, politically and socially cut off from their neighbours. And participation also spiked in counties that experienced a "midnight swing," where the reported vote count favoured Trump on election night before shifting to Biden as mail-in ballots were counted. These were precisely the counties where the "Stop the Steal" narrative landed hardest. The research behind this episode:Sonin, Konstantin, David Van Dijcke, and Austin L. Wright. 2023. "Isolation and Insurrection: How Partisanship and Political Geography Fueled January 6, 2021." CEPR DP18209. To cite this episode:Phillips, Tim, and Konstantin Sonin. 2026. “What triggered January 6?” VoxTalks Economics (podcast). Assign this as extra listening. The citation above is formatted and ready for a reading list or VLE.About the guestKonstantin Sonin is the John Dewey Distinguished Service Professor at the Harris School of Public Policy at the University of Chicago. Born in the Soviet Union, he has spent his career studying how political institutions work under stress, with particular attention to how information and misinformation shape political behaviour, elections, and collective action. He is one of the leading economists working on the political economy of authoritarian and democratic governance, and his research on protest, polarisation, and political geography has made him a central figure in the study of democratic backsliding.Research cited in this episodeRegression discontinuity design is a statistical method used to identify causal effects by exploiting a threshold or cutoff. Sonin, Van Dijcke, and Wright use two regression discontinuity designs: one exploiting the narrow margins by which Trump lost certain states, and one exploiting the gap between the election-night vote tally and the final certified result in individual counties. In both cases, the design allows them to isolate the effect of a specific trigger on protest participation, separating it from the general background of partisan feeling.The "midnight swing" refers to the shift in reported vote tallies that occurred in many counties on election night 2020 as large batches of mail-in ballots were counted. Because mail-in voters skewed heavily Democratic, counties where in-person votes were reported first showed strong Trump leads that reversed overnight as the mail-in totals arrived. For professional observers and election administrators, this pattern was entirely expected; it followed directly from the different rules different states used to count mail-in ballots during the pandemic. For many voters, particularly those already primed to distrust the electoral process, it read as suspicious. The paper finds that communities exposed to larger swings sent disproportionately more participants to Washington on January 6.Network Exposure design is a methodological innovation introduced in this paper. It measures how much exposure a given community had to election-denial signals flowing through its social networks, and distinguishes this from exposure arising simply through geographic proximity to other communities. Isolated communities proved hypersensitive to information traveling through their social networks, but not to information spreading through neighbouring areas. This suggests the amplification mechanism was social, not spatial.Political isolation in this paper refers to being a minority political community within a larger, differently-leaning area. A small Republican-voting enclave inside a Democrat-leaning county or district is politically isolated in this sense. The paper finds that isolation of this kind was a strong amplifier of partisanship in predicting participation. Two other measures of isolation, one based on mobile device travel patterns ("locational isolation") and one based on Facebook connections ("social media isolation"), produce consistent results, suggesting the effect is not an artefact of how isolation is measured.The Proud Boys are a far-right extremist organisation active in the United States. The paper finds that communities with a local Proud Boys chapter were over-represented among those who traveled to Washington on January 6, making proximity to the organisation a robust correlate of participation, independent of general partisan leanings.Parler was a social media platform popular among far-right users in the United States during the period leading up to January 6, 2021. Communities where Parler usage was relatively higher were also over-represented among participants in the March to Save America, suggesting that the platform played a role in amplifying mobilisation signals within the networks most susceptible to them.Collective action theory is the study of how individuals decide to participate in group action, particularly when the costs fall on participants individually but the benefits are shared. Sonin, Van Dijcke, and Wright contribute behavioural evidence on the specific role of political isolation and network-amplified grievance in driving participation.More VoxTalks EconomicsThe Grievance Doctrine What if trade policy wasn't really about trade at all?

Royal author Tom Bower claims Prince Andrew was recently approached about voluntarily removing himself from the line of succession, describing it as “the cleanest solution” to an ongoing constitutional dilemma.At the same time, reports suggest a widening investigation tied to Jeffrey Epstein—codenamed “Operation Ironville”—is examining what former staff and protection officers may have known. One source said, “Anyone who worked closely around Andrew Windsor is running scared right now.”The report claims investigators are reviewing past trips and witness accounts, with insiders suggesting the scale of the operation indicates a complex and expanding inquiry.Andrew's legal position remains uncertain. Legal expert Simarjot Singh Judge noted, “The criminal law sets out precise legal definitions and evidential thresholds. If those elements are not met, then there is simply no basis for prosecution.”Meanwhile, Andrew's day-to-day life is described as increasingly restricted, with one insider claiming he spends much of his time “just getting up and wandering around in his pyjamas… binge watching shows on Netflix.”Removal vans have also been spotted at his new residence, Marsh Farm, raising questions about the movement of valuable items from Royal Lodge.Get episodes of Palace Intrigue by becommming a paid subscriber on Apple Podcasts.

Hezbollah is isolated and fighting for its life. This, according to Nitzan Nuriel, a reserve brigadier general and former head of the counter terrorism bureau. Speaking to reporter Arieh O’Sullivan, Nuriel said that Israel could make sure that Hezbollah was no longer a military player in the region, but it would take time.

After a breakup, many of us swing to a defensive extreme: Hyper-Independence. This is the "I don't need anyone" shield that feels like power but often acts as a prison. In this episode, we talk to the woman who is finally feeling okay again and starting to go out with friends, but finds herself terrified of letting a new person in. We discuss the difference between healthy autonomy and fear-based isolation. We dive into the three levels of boundaries—Mental, Emotional, and Physical—specifically as they relate to meeting and dating someone new. Ready to Fast-Track Your Breakup Recovery?

Watch the YouTube version of this episode HEREWhat happens when law firm owners unintentionally isolate themselves while trying to protect their time and focus? In this episode, Tyson Mutrux explores a powerful idea inspired by Robert Greene's 48 Laws of Power: “Do not build fortresses to protect yourself. Isolation is dangerous.” That quote sparks a deeper conversation about how many founders unknowingly create isolation as they scale their businesses.Tyson breaks down how this “fortress mindset” shows up in modern law firms—whether through controlling calendars, avoiding networking, becoming the sole decision-maker, or building overly filtered communication channels. While these actions often start with good intentions, they can lead to dangerous blind spots where leaders lose access to honest feedback, frontline information, and valuable outside perspectives.The episode also dives into the psychological side of leadership isolation. Tyson explains how loneliness at the top can impact mental health, decision quality, and long-term strategic thinking. Ultimately, the solution isn't just working harder—it's intentionally building strong networks, feedback loops, and collaborative environments that help leaders stay connected, informed, and resilient as they grow.3:23 Why isolation disconnects leaders from reality5:44 Why founders accidentally isolate themselves6:54 The importance of dashboards, data, and feedback loops9:04 Why face-to-face connection still matters for leadership11:07 Common isolation traps for law firm owners15:08 Why ideas spread faster in collaborative firms17:18 The psychological cost of leadership isolation23:27 Connection as a strategic advantage for entrepreneursTune in to today's episode and checkout the full show notes here.

It has been a matter of days since the US and Israel launched air strikes against Iran, and already the impact has rippled across the Middle East.  Iran's supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei and dozens of top officials have been killed. So, too, have hundreds of Iranians. Tehran's retaliation against Israel has caused casualties and serious damage to property. And missile and drone attacks on Iran's Gulf neighbours have extended beyond US bases, also hitting airports and civilian structures, leading to injuries and deaths. US President Donald Trump has vowed to continue with Operation Epic Fury until all Washington's objectives are met. Meanwhile, the region remains on edge as it braces for more exchange of fire. In this episode of Beyond the Headlines, host Nada AlTaher looks at the increasingly shrinking options Iran now has, after testing its Gulf allies beyond their limits, and asks what comes next for Tehran's regime. She speaks to Hamidreza Azizi, an Iran expert at the German Institute for International and Security Affairs in Berlin, and Hasan Al Hasan, senior fellow for Middle East policy at the International Institute for Strategic Studies.

The Gullah Geechee are descendants of West and Central Africans enslaved on the Sea Islands and coastal plantations. Isolated in these regions, they preserved a unique creole language and a rich spiritual folklore. For a long time, any ghostly apparition or sinister spirit in the Lowcountry was simply called a "haint," a term for haunt or ghost. But over time, people realised not all haints were the same. Gullah lore eventually classified the evil spirits into two categories: plat-eyes and boo-hags.The BOOKBY US A COFFEEJoin Sarah's new FACEBOOK GROUPSubscribe to our PATREONEMAIL us your storiesJoin us on INSTAGRAMJoin us on TWITTERJoin us on FACEBOOKVisit our WEBSITEResearch Links:https://genteelandbard.com/southern-history-haunts-folklore-journal/boo-hags-plat-eyeshttps://www.blacksouthernbelle.com/www-blacksouthernbelle-com-gullah-geechee-folk-rituals-hoodoo-voodoo-and-conjuringhttps://www.monstropedia.org/index.php/Plat-eyehttps://www.reddit.com/r/dogman/comments/1dz4act/i_learned_something_new_and_i_want_to_talk_abouthttps://charlestonterrors.com/boo-hags-haint-blue-vampires-of-the-lowcountry-the-paint-that-stops-them/https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boo_haghttps://www.reddit.com/r/Paranormal/comments/ufxm0g/old_hag_sleep_paralysis_about_7_years_agoThanks so much for listening, and we'll catch up with you again on Thursday.Sarah and Tobie xx"Spacial Winds," Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com)Licenced under Creative Commons: By Attribution 4.0 Licencehttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/SURVEY Hosted on Acast.

The original field recording was fed into a granular sculpting sampler to create bell like arpeggiated lines. Next, I chopped the field recording to extract key parts, intimate vocal moments, a solid stone hit rhythm and laughter. Isolated stone “hits” became drum parts, replayed and resampled then slowed. They began to sound like ghost drums, closing doors or belated fireworks. I recreated the rhythms, striking flints collected from Norfolk beaches and in a simple act connected across time for a moment, integrating them into the final track. I played modular synth parts, stereo panned over the recording, adding high tones and static improvised, sonic scribble. The final completed track has a dream like quality with a foggy, lost ambient crackle and haze. Voices drift in and out of the track, there is laughter as stones are struck and connect us through time.Women and grinding stones reimagined by Andy Billington.———Part of the project A Century of Sounds, reimagining 100 sounds covering 100 years from the collections of the Pitt Rivers Museum at the University of Oxford.

Some isolated Wairarapa residents are gutted they're cut off from their livelihoods and emergency services after a destructive storm ripped through the region on Sunday and Monday. Torrential rain and widespread flooding has washed out the Lake Ferry Road bridge over the Turangaui River - cutting off settlements in Ngawi, Lake Ferry and Cape Palliser. Meanwhile, thousands of homes are still without power across the Wairarapa region, as well as in Wellington. Ellen O'Dwyer reports.

Families in a Wairarapa community have been split and residents forced to scramble for supplies because their only access road has been washed away. Mary Argue reports.

Several Wairarapa coastal settlements are still cut off, after a single lane bridge was washed away during this week's widespread flooding. Rural Support Trust coordinator, Sarah Donaldson, has been working alongside emergency response teams and spoke to Ingrid Hipkiss.

Residents in the coastal settlement of Wainui on Banks Peninsula are completely cut off after floodwaters, debris and fallen trees tore through roads - with locals calling it the worst flooding they've seen. Linda Hennessy, who has lived in Wainui for almost a decade spoke to Corin Dann.

After a car accident took the lives of both her parents, Mira Caine's transition to adulthood was hard and fast. Solely responsible for the welfare of her intellectually disabled younger brother, she's searching for a better life for them both when she's approached by an enigmatic woman with an offer that seems like the answer to their problems. Allison Wyndclyffe, the young heir to an enormous fortune who's suffered her own trauma, is in need of a mentor and companion.Isolated on an island in the St. Lawrence River lies the Wyndclyffe estate—beautiful but possessing a dark and complicated legacy. As Mira settles in and befriends her troubled charge, she quickly learns her new home is full of questions that no one wants to answer. What caused Allison's father to murder his wife and almost kill his daughter? How is the tragedy connected to the arcane writings Mira stumbles across? And why do parts of the island feel strangely familiar to her?As more of the sprawling manor's secrets are revealed through Allison's damaged psyche, Mira's sense of time and self begin to erode. Before long she will come face-to-face with the unspeakable truth at the heart of Wyndclyffe, and not everyone will make it off the island alive.James talks with the author about the book! Joe Hart is the Edgar Award–winning and Wall Street Journal–bestselling author of seventeen novels, including Wyndclyffe, The River Is Dark, Obscura, The Last Girl, and Or Else. His work has been translated into eight languages as well as optioned for film. Hart lives with his family in Minnesota.

Prabhleen Kaur: When Lack of Trust Turns Teams Into Isolated Individuals Read the full Show Notes and search through the world's largest audio library on Agile and Scrum directly on the Scrum Master Toolbox Podcast website: http://bit.ly/SMTP_ShowNotes.   "Teams self-destruct despite best efforts when they lack trust." - Prabhleen Kaur   Prabhleen observed a troubling pattern while shadowing a team: stand-ups had become a register activity where people reported individual status without any connection to the sprint goal. There was no "we" in the conversation—only "I."  The team had experienced a missed deadline due to a PR conflict that wasn't merged in time, but instead of addressing it openly, everyone focused on fixing the immediate problem while avoiding the deeper conversation. The discomfort was never voiced, and resentment accumulated silently.  Prabhleen explains that team destruction is never about one action—it's about the accumulation of unspoken concerns that eventually explode at the worst possible moment. To rebuild trust, she recommends starting with peer reviews that encourage natural collaboration and conversation.  Scrum Masters must be vocal about challenges in front of the entire team, modeling the openness they want to see. For teams that have completely withdrawn, anonymous feedback and scheduled one-on-ones can create safe spaces for honest communication. The key insight? Trust is rebuilt when people realize they will be heard and understood, not judged.   In this segment, we talk about how trust is the foundation of effective teams and how its absence leads to working in silos.   Self-reflection Question: When your team experiences a failure or missed deadline, do you create space for open conversation about what happened, or does everyone quietly move on while resentment builds? Featured Book of the Week: Scrum: The Art of Doing Twice the Work in Half the Time by Jeff Sutherland Prabhleen recommends Scrum: The Art of Doing Twice the Work in Half the Time by Jeff Sutherland as a foundational read for understanding the spirit behind the framework. "When I actually read the book and understood the nuances of rugby and how the team should be, everything started making sense. I grew beyond the Scrum guide, beyond following rules—it's about how the team operates around you as a collective," she explains. Prabhleen also highly recommends Turn the Ship Around by David Marquet, summarizing its core message as "leaders lead leaders." Both books shaped her understanding that frameworks exist to enable collaboration, not to create compliance. Check out the David Marquet episodes on the Scrum Master Toolbox Podcast for more insights on intent-based leadership.   [The Scrum Master Toolbox Podcast Recommends]

The lack of connection within workplaces is more than a sad fact —it's a serious business issue impacting performance. It's dollars left on the table. In this episode, Ryan Jenkins (WSJ Bestselling Author of Connectable) explains why workplace loneliness is increasing and how HR leaders can build a culture of belonging to combat employee isolation.Loneliness was a recurring theme on this channel throughout 2025.

I bring Dave Chisholm back to discus his follow up project in the form of a dystopian work where the world is designed through workplace culture to keep everyone compliant and working.

One of the biggest mistakes I see entrepreneurs make is trying to do business alone. It can feel safer, easier, or more “efficient” to figure everything out yourself. But the truth is, isolation is quietly costing you momentum, confidence, and growth. In this episode, Chris and I break down why entrepreneurship was never meant to be a solo sport and how the right community can completely change your consistency, decision-making, and standards. We talk about the power of accountability, why group environments normalize high performance (not mediocrity), and how being surrounded by people who are ahead of you accelerates your learning in ways nothing else can. Get ready to rethink how you grow, who you grow with, and why the right room can change your life and business.

Last week's severe weather has highlighted the differing ways some small communities approach the cleanup, with some saying locals need to be empowered to muck in themselves rather than waiting for council contractors. Residents are generally discouraged from clearing slips on public land and roads and told to wait for emergency services or council contractors. However, this doesn't discourage some residents from taking matters into their own hands. So, should isolated communitiies given more power to deal with damage from weather events? Libby Kirkby-McLeod reports.

In this episode, we hear from a woman who feels completely stuck in a marriage marked by repeated betrayal, emotional abuse, and fear. After years of discovering messages, infidelity, and financial deception—and while raising a severely autistic child and a baby far from her own support system—she knows she needs to leave but doesn't know how. Isolated, blamed, and frightened of the consequences of trying to go, she asks a heartbreaking question: Where do you even begin when escape feels impossible? This conversation explores power, control, survival, and the courage it takes to name the truth out loud.

Due to the internet blackout in Kobani, we were unable to reach anyone for a live interview, including the journalists we attempted to contact. As a result, Mr Umer Menla Yusif, a pharmacist based in Kobani, sent us voice messages via WhatsApp. We asked him about the latest developments regarding the humanitarian situation in the city, as well as the reasons behind the ongoing lack of water, electricity, and internet access. - Ji ber qutbûna înternetê li Kobaniyê, me nikaribû bi kesî re hevpeyvîneke zindî bikin, di nav de rojnamevanên ku me hewl da pêwendiyê bi wan re deynin. Di encamê de, birêz Umer Menla Yusif, dermansazekî li Kobaniyê, bi rêya WhatsAppê peyamên dengî ji me re şandin.

Robert Maudsley has spent more than 40 years in near solitary confinement, caged in a bespoke glass cell. Also branded ‘Britain’s Most Dangerous Criminal’ and labelled ‘Hannibal The Cannibal’, his story has been shaped as much by myth as by fact. In this episode, we unpack Maudsley’s troubled upbringing, his violent criminal history and the extraordinary lengths taken to isolate and contain him. It’s a case that raises countless legal and ethical questions around how far a society can go in the name of safety… and what that means for human dignity.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

uest Author: Paul GregoryHeadline: Isolation and Rage: The Oswalds' Summer of StruggleSummary: The Oswalds lived in poverty, with Marina isolated and lacking essentials like a baby carriage. Tensions erupted during a dinner with the "Dallas Russians" when Lee aggressively defended the Soviet Union, alienating the community that was trying to assist his secluded wife.Article: During the summer of 1962, Paul Gregory observed the Oswalds' meager living conditions, noting their only coffee table book was a Time magazine featuring President Kennedy, a man both seemingly admired at the time. Lee's deep resentment surfaced during a dinner with the Dallas Russian community when he argued fiercely about the Soviet Union, leading the group to realize he was dangerously isolating Marina, especially after his pride was wounded when they gifted her a baby carriage she desperately needed.

Instead flaunting his new red “Trump kneepads” to world leaders and corporate elite in Davos, Switzerland, during the 56th Annual Meeting of the World Economic Forum, Gavin Newsom should be more concerned about this state's abysmal relationship with the federal government argues Elaine Culotti, Daily Signal California correspondent, on today's special video commentary. “To be clear, our biggest problem in California is the fact that we have no relationship whatsoever with President Trump and the administration. So we can't pick up the phone and call and say, “Hey, we need a lifeline.” It does not exist. It's been destroyed. And with the Pacific Palisades and the fires in California, it has been unveiled how deep that destruction is.”

Connection isn't just about being around people — it's about feeling seen. This week on Getting Better, JVN sits down certified mental health coach and founder of the SEEN Method, Morgan Burch, for a powerful conversation about authenticity, isolation, and what actually makes relationships work. Together, they unpack why so many of us feel disconnected even when we're surrounded by others, how fear and rumination can quietly shape our relationships, and the ways cancel culture and manipulation can push people into deeper isolation. Morgan breaks down the psychology behind feeling “separate,” how visualization can either heal or trap us, and what it really means to be emotionally safe with another person. From recognizing when you're being pulled away from connection to learning the key foundations of healthy, successful relationships, this episode is about finding your way back to yourself — and to others — with clarity, compassion, and intention. Whether you're navigating friendship shifts, romantic relationships, or just trying to feel less alone, this conversation offers grounding tools to help you reconnect.
