Avec cette BD, l'auteur James explore la langue avec humour et s'amuse à analyser son évolution... Savez-vous comment est-on passé de « Grationopolis » à « Grenoble » ? Pourquoi dit-on « j'irai » et pas « j'allerai » ? Quelle est la différence entre « nombre » et « chiffres ». Pourquoi dit-on quinze, seize, mais dix-sept, dix-huit ?  Si la langue française est évolutive, la sémantique, elle, est élastique ! Il y a plein d'absurdités. On nous dit qu'il y a plein de règles dans la langue française, mais elles sont transgressées en permanence !  James, auteur  Comment comprendre cette évolution ? James, auteur, nous propose un deuxième tome pour décrypter l'usage et l'évolution de la langue en remontant l'histoire. Un personnage avec cravate et cigare, dessiné très simplement, en dialogue avec d'autres personnages, donne les explications sur les subtilités de la langue.  Par exemple, il nous raconte d'où viennent tous ces tics de langage « j'avoue ! » « Grave ! » «Y a pas de soucis», insupportables pour beaucoup d'oreilles, mais qui sont pourtant indispensables à la conversation et qui ont une histoire bien plus intéressante qu'il n'y parait. Corneille, Balzac avaient eux-mêmes leurs tics de langage qu'on retrouve dans leurs livres.  L'auteur nous apprend tout sur les figures de style telles que les litotes, les euphémismes, les antiphrases, toujours avec beaucoup d'ironie, ce qui nous rappelle que l'humour est principalement basé sur le langage.  Invité : l'auteur James. Il se définit comme un «scénariste qui dessine». Il a participé à la Revue Dessinée. Sa bande dessinée « La sémantique, c'est élastique » est publiée aux éditions Pataquès.    Et comme chaque mercredi, retrouvez la chronique de Lucie Bouteloup, La puce à l'oreille. Cette semaine, elle vous propose de découvrir l'expression « Discuter le bout de gras ! » avec la lexicographe Géraldine Moinard.  Une chronique en partenariat avec les éditions Le Robert.  Programmation musicale : l'artiste Alma Rechtman avec le titre Dans ma maison.

Richard Sorge is one of history's most famous spies. This hard-drinking, womanising, motorcycle-crashing Soviet officer penetrated the German embassy in Tokyo during the 1930s and gathered intelligence credited with changing the course of the Second World War. It is an intriguing tale; but Sorge's spy ring was just one chapter in a much longer history of Russian and Soviet espionage in and against Japan. Cracking the Crab: Russian Espionage Against Japan, from Peter the Great to Richard Sorge (Hurst, 2025) by Dr. James D Brown tells the extraordinary full story of Russian intrigue targeting Japan, from first encounters in the eighteenth century to the Soviet declaration of war in August 1945. Colourful episodes include Gojong, King of Korea, being smuggled into the Russian legation dressed as a woman in 1896; the 1927 ‘Tanaka Memorial', an infamous forgery purporting to be Japan's hidden plan for world domination; and the secret intelligence of ‘Nero', a Soviet agent supplying invaluable insight into Japanese strategy during the Second World War. From Russians murdered in broad daylight in Meiji Tokyo to Soviet honey traps and ‘white magic' at the Battle of Nomonhan, this is a landmark history of the covert struggle between two great powers of the modern age. This interview was conducted by Dr. Miranda Melcher whose book focuses on post-conflict military integration, understanding treaty negotiation and implementation in civil war contexts, with qualitative analysis of the Angolan and Mozambican civil wars.

Paulk Jr. Jim shares his incredible journey, from commanding submarines to publishing his latest book Shaking Up The World. Filled with moving stories of resilience, history, and personal triumphs, Jim reflects on the power of staying positive, building deep connections, and leaving a meaningful legacy.

"True crime et comics se rencontrent" Torso : ComicsDiscovery S09E33

Cette semaine, direction Cleveland au cœur des années 30 , juste après la Prohibition. Le grand héros de l'Amérique, Eliot Ness, célèbre pour avoir fait tomber Al Capone, prend la tête de la sécurité publique de la ville de Cleveland. Mais il va se retrouver face à une menace encore plus sombre qu'un baron du crime : un tueur en série insaisissable. Dans ce nouvel épisode de ComicsDiscovery, votre podcast préféré consacré à la bande dessinée américaine, nous explorons Torso, l'un des premiers titres de Brian Michael Bendis, co-écrit avec Marc Andreyko. Les deux auteurs nous plongent dans l'une des histoires les plus troublantes de leur ville natale, un fait divers glaçant adapté en comic book noir et publié en France chez Delcourt. Torso : du true crime en comics Qui sont les auteurs ?Si vous lisez régulièrement des comics, le nom de Brian Michael Bendis vous est certainement familier. Véritable pilier du comics américain des années 2000-2010, on lui doit des titres phares comme Ultimate Spider-Man, la création du célèbre Miles Morales, ou encore les grandes heures de Jessica Jones dans la série Alias. Il est reconnu pour sa capacité à donner vie à ses personnages à travers des dialogues réalistes et percutants. Plus surprenant : il est aussi le dessinateur de Torso, qu'il illustre dans un style brut, presque expressionniste, qui renforce l'ambiance oppressante du récit. De son côté, Marc Andreyko, co-auteur de Torso, est peut-être un peu moins médiatisé, mais tout aussi talentueux. Scénariste engagé, notamment en faveur de la cause LGBT+, il est l'auteur de titres marquants comme Manhunter chez DC Comics ou l'anthologie Love is Love, publiée en hommage aux victimes de la tuerie d'Orlando. Son écriture se distingue par une forte dimension humaine et sociale. The Cleveland Torso Murderer : un fait divers glaçantTorso adapte une histoire vraie, l'une des plus sombres de Cleveland. Entre 1934 et 1938, un tueur en série inconnu enlève des personnes défavorisées issues des bidonvilles, avant de disséminer des fragments de corps un peu partout dans la ville. La presse le surnommera le Cleveland Torso Murderer. Peu avant le début de ces crimes, Eliot Ness est nommé chef de la sécurité de la ville, chargé de superviser la police et les pompiers. Rapidement, le tueur s'amuse à le provoquer, allant jusqu'à déposer des cadavres à quelques mètres de son domicile. C'est cette traque haletante que Bendis et Andreyko mettent en scène dans leur roman graphique noir. Un contexte social lourdLa grande dépression frappe de plein fouet les États-Unis. Cleveland est envahie par des milliers de personnes à la recherche de travail. Beaucoup s'entassent dans des bidonvilles improvisés, qui deviennent le terrain de chasse du tueur. Sur la dizaine de meurtres, la police ne parviendra à identifier que deux victimes. Leurs histoires, comme celles des autres, restent largement méconnues. Malgré cette tragédie, Torso parvient à offrir un véritable témoignage historique. Le récit, sombre et intense, dévoile un pan oublié de l'histoire des États-Unis, tout en mettant en lumière les injustices sociales de l'époque. Bendis et Andreyko n'oublient jamais de donner une dimension humaine à leur enquête. Un comics marquant, entre enquête et témoignageTorso est une lecture incontournable pour les amateurs de true crime, de thrillers policiers et de bandes dessinées engagées. Le style visuel de Bendis, très éloigné de ce qu'il fera plus tard chez Marvel, donne une personnalité unique à l'ouvrage. C'est aussi l'occasion rare de découvrir l'un des seuls titres qu'il ait illustré lui-même. Que vous soyez passionné d'enquêtes criminelles, d'histoires vraies ou simplement curieux de découvrir un comics indépendant percutant, Torso mérite clairement un coup d'œil. Vous aimez le true crime et le polar ?Si vous êtes amateur de true crime ou de polar noir en bande dessinée, on vous recommande chaudement d'autres épisodes de ComicsDiscovery dans la même veine : Incognito de Ed Brubaker et Sean Phillips :

Come see us live in London June 22nd: https://bigbellycomedy.club/event/lions-led-by-donkeys-podcast-live-big-fat-festival-southbank/ A conflict breaks out between a newly independent Mexico and a newly back-to-having-kings France. It culminates in a small series of armed incursions and blockades in 1838-39. Did it start because of an aggrieved French baker? Did Napoleon's armies advance the science of military optics because their commander wanted to look at feet? In this episode (the first one where Nate has researched, written, and hosted), we get to the bottom of the semi-apocryphal Pastry War. Sources: Atwater, James D.; Ruiz, Ramon Eduardo.

The discussion centers around the intersection of artificial intelligence (AI), cybersecurity, and monetization strategies, emphasizing the dual challenges of protecting data and AI models while also effectively pricing these solutions. Experts Bryant Tow and James D. Wilton explore the urgent risks posed by AI, including threats to company data and the integrity of AI models. They highlight the importance of aligning technical depth with business value, particularly as AI adoption accelerates across industries.Bryant Tow, Chief Security Officer at Leapfrog Services, emphasizes the need for organizations to conduct an AI readiness assessment to understand their specific use cases and the necessary infrastructure. He argues that data classification and retention policies are crucial for effective cybersecurity, as they help organizations determine what data needs protection and how to manage it. Tow also discusses the importance of governance and user training in ensuring that AI tools are used appropriately and securely.James D. Wilton, founder of Monovate, adds that pricing strategies for cybersecurity solutions should reflect the varying levels of protection and the perceived value by different customer segments. He suggests that companies can create premium bundles for advanced features while also considering the architecture of their offerings to justify pricing. Wilton highlights the need for businesses to articulate the value of their services, especially in a landscape where clients may be hesitant to invest due to cost-cutting measures.The conversation also touches on the skills gap in the cybersecurity workforce and the potential for outsourcing as a solution. Both experts agree that effective communication between security leaders and go-to-market teams is essential for conveying the value of cybersecurity solutions to clients. They conclude that organizations must continuously demonstrate the benefits of their services to prevent customer fatigue and ensure ongoing investment in cybersecurity measures.

Are you leaving money on the table? Most SaaS founders are—and don't even realize it. In this episode of SaaS Fuel, Jeff Mains sits down with James D. Wilton, managing partner at Motivate and former senior pricing expert at McKinsey. James shares how to align pricing with value, avoid the biggest monetization mistakes, and build a pricing strategy that actually supports growth.We cover the science and psychology behind pricing, the dangers of freemium gone wrong, why founders underprice out of fear, and how to choose the right value metric for your product. If you've ever struggled with pricing tiers, packaging, or just knowing what to charge—this is the episode that will change everything.Key Takeaways 00:00 - Why most founders don't know what their customers will pay 02:00 - Why pricing is a growth lever, not a math problem 07:00 - Why even smart SaaS companies guess at pricing 12:00 - The psychology of discounting and its lasting effects 15:00 - How perceived value drives pricing power 18:30 - Misconceptions about willingness to pay 22:00 - How to move from gut feel to data-driven pricing 26:00 - Pricing reactions vary wildly—here's why 29:20 - Choosing the right pricing metric for your SaaS 34:00 - Misaligned pricing metrics can kill retention 38:00 - Freemium pitfalls: Free riders vs real conversions 42:30 - How to build a freemium model that actually works 46:00 - How many pricing tiers should you really have? 50:00 - A simple 3-step framework to rethink your pricingTweetable Quotes“If you don't know what your customer is willing to pay, ask—but ask with a skeptical lens.” — James Wilton“Pricing is about perception, not production cost.” — Jeff Mains“Discounts change how customers value your product—even when the discount ends.” — James Wilton“Founders often price based on fear. That's how you end up in the freemium trap.” — Jeff Mains“Pick a value metric that scales with the customer, not just your bottom line.” — James Wilton“The biggest growth lever most SaaS companies ignore? Pricing.” — Jeff MainsSaaS Leadership LessonsPricing is perception – Your value isn't just what you deliver, it's what customers believe they're getting.Freemium can be fatal – If your free tier attracts the wrong audience or discourages usage, it hurts more than it helps.Your best price metric is tied to your customer's success – Not your costs, not your features. It's about their value.Discounting can damage trust – Shaving off dollars may feel good short-term, but it lowers long-term perceived value.Founders should evolve from instinct to insight – Start with your gut, but shift to customer data and behavior fast.Keep pricing simple – Too many tiers confuse buyers and stall conversion. Good > Better > Best usually wins.Guest ResourcesEmail - james.wilton@monevate.comWebsite - http://monevate.com/Linkedin - https://www.linkedin.com/in/collinstewart/Episode SponsorSmall Fish, Big Pond – https://smallfishbigpond.com/ Use the promo code...
