What? You don't see the happy times?But they are right there!Right there inside you.Oh, I see. You have something that is keeping you from seeing and feeling and living the sparkling clear and happy times that are struggling to rise up from the depths of your soul.I see that you are worried.That's the problem.Worry is the cork that keeps the champagne of happiness from spraying a smile on your face and a sparkle in your eye and joy into your heartIf you will allow me, I will try to do for you what Julius Rosenwald and Thomas Jefferson did for me.Julius Rosenwald was an immensely successful businessman who used his money – all of it – to help people rise above their circumstances and experience the wonders of the world in which they lived.This is what Julius Rosenwald wrote to me 100 years ago:“Early in my business career I learned the folly of worrying about anything. I have always worked as hard as I could, but when a thing went wrong and could not be righted, I dismissed it from my mind.”Friend, when a thing goes wrong and cannot be righted, dismiss it from your mind.An army of people surround us whose only job is to make us fearful and afraid. You must not allow these people to capture your attention.Journalists have been shouting deceptive and inflammatory headlines at us since the days of the American Revolution.But the journalists and podcasters of today have discovered new ways of shouting. Emails and websites and Youtube and cable and streaming services promise, pledge and swear to keep us highly informed and deeply unhappy. They feed our worries like stokers feeding firewood into the boilers of steam trains.They want us to ride on their rails of steel so that they can take us where they want us to go.Don't ride their train. Jump off of it. Thomas Jefferson did.He said,“I do not take a single newspaper, nor read one a month, and I feel myself infinitely the happier for it.”He went on to say,“Advertisements contain the only truths to be relied on in a newspaper. The man who reads nothing at all is better educated than the man who reads nothing but newspapers.”Thomas Jefferson avoided the news and said he was infinitely the happier for it.You should do it, too.Julius Rosenwald and Thomas Jefferson discovered that Jesus was telling the truth in Matthew chapter six when he said,“Do not worry about tomorrow; for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own.”Don't worry.Be happy.Roy H. WilliamsDavid Ackert is making his list and checking it twice — but he's no Santa Claus. The gifts David brings are powerful insights for professionals who want to grow. David Ackert challenges the long-held belief that success depends on building a massive network of connections. In his view, quantity is a distraction. The thing to do is cultivate a small, curated list of at least 9 not more than 30 “high-value” relationships with people who have the ability to help you reach your goals.Send everyone else a Christmas card.Rotbart goes roving with David Ackert this week, at MondayMorningRadio.com

The world continues to mourn as more information comes to light following the Bondi Beach terrorist attack. From promise to re-examine gun laws, and Australians embracing the Jewish community, this is how the nation is feeling as the dust begins to settle from Sunday's horrifying incident. And in headlines Hanukkah events and vigils were held in unison across Australia last night as thousands of mourners laid flowers and left messages to remember the 15 people killed in the massacre at Bondi; The government is considering further gun controls in the wake of Sunday's attack; The son of Hollywood Director Rob Reiner has been arrested on homicide charges after the filmmaker and ​his wife were found dead in their Los Angeles home; Australian actress Rachael Carpani best known for her role in McLeods Daughters has died after suffering a chronic illness THE END BITS Contribute to verified GoFundMe fundraisers here Donate blood, find your nearest donation centre here Support independent women's media Check out The Quicky Instagram here GET IN TOUCHShare your story, feedback, or dilemma!

An independent journalist is warning against the unchecked rise of artificial intelligence (AI), comparing the public to “guinea pigs” in a global experiment.Atif Rashid, Editor in Chief of Analyst News – a non-profit international news website – was a panelist in the thematic session held during the UN Alliance of Civilizations Forum in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, from 14-15 December.Speaking to UN News's Reem Abaza, he urged governments and tech companies to slow down, protect children, and treat AI with the same caution as they would untested medications.

Die New Yorker Journalistin Liz Pelly schreibt seit 2017 über Streaming und seinen negativen Einfluss auf Musikkulturen. Anfang des Jahres sind die gesammelten Resultate ihrer Recherchen im Buch „Mood Machine“ erschienen. Es geht darin um die Anfänge der Spotify-Gründer, die eigentlich mehr im Marketing als in der Musik liegen. Auch die Bemühungen, uns alle mehr zu passiven Hörer_innen von so genannten Mood Playlists zu machen und die vielseitigen Wege, wie Streaming die Musik systematisch entwertet hat und so Musikschaffende finanziell aushungert, sind große Themen. Im Interview mit Stefan Trischler erzählt Liz Pelly unter anderem, was 2025 die großen Entwicklungen rund um Spotify waren: Die Dronen-Investments von CEO Daniel Ek, die darauffolgenden Boykotte und die fest ungehemmte Ausbreitung KI-generierter Musik auf der Plattform.Sendungshinweis: FM4, Homebase, 15.12.2025, 20 Uhr

Mit Winfried Gburek, Journalist und Buchautor. Vor 30 Jahren endete der Bosnienkrieg. Dieser war bis zum Krieg in der Ukraine, der blutigste Konflikt in Europa seit dem Zweiten Weltkrieg. Grundlage für den Frieden war das Abkommen von Dayton, mit dem auch der Staat Bosnien und Herzegowina gegründet wurde. Aber wie stabil ist Bosnien und Herzegowina heute? Wie gestaltet sich das Zusammenleben der verschiedenen Ethnien und wie ist die Lage der katholischen Minderheit im Land? Antworten bekommen wir von dem Journalisten und Buchautor Winfried Gburek.

Eva Hofman is journalist en schrijver. Ze debuteerde in 2024 met ‘Josephine', over navelstaren en esthetiek als culturele analyse. Daarnaast werkt ze als onderzoeksjournalist en technologieverslaggever bij de Groene Amsterdammer. In het blad publiceert ze artikelen, onderzoeken en essays over internetcultuur, feminisme en de macht van big tech. Nu komt ze met ‘Man neemt Vrouw: aantekeningen uit het patriarchaat'. In het boek onderzoekt Hofman de giftige tegenreactie van het patriarchaat op feminisme: luidruchtig, ziedend en viral. Aan de hand van essays over klassieke misogynie, rechtse feministen en de hedendaagse digitale backlash laat Hofman zien hoe vrouwenhaat zich telkens opnieuw uitvindt. Ellen Deckwitz gaat met Eva Hofman in gesprek.

Diesmal gibt es ein BierTalk-Experiment der besonderen Art. Nachdem mein lieber Freund Theo Flissebaalje Anfang des Jahres verstorben ist und wir immer geplant hatten, einen Podcast zur Geschichte des Niederländischen Bockbieres aufzuzeichnen, habe ich eine Möglichkeit gefunden, es doch noch umzusetzen. Mittels KI-Unterstützung gibt es die Zusammenfassung eines ausführlichen Artikels von Theo, der nicht nur Journalist, sondern eine weltbekannte Ikone in der Bierwelt, unter anderem auch als Beerjudge, war, als BierTalk Spezial in Memoriam Theo und auch dafür, dass seine Botschaft weiterlebt. Insofern erwartet Euch eine spannende Reise durch die Geschichte des "Bokbiers", wie es in den Niederlanden genannt wird, die aber auch mit der deutschen und europäischen Biergeschichte eng verknüpft ist. Am Ende klären wir auch auf, warum das Bokbier in unserem Nachbarland von allen Brauereien immer zum selben Termin, dafür aber immer früher im Jahr ausgeschenkt wird...

Journalist and researcher Brian Baker, founder of The Superstitious Times, joins Haunted Talks to discuss his new book, Eerie Whispers: Exploring Canada's Reluctant Relationship with Its Ghostly Lore. Why is Canada, a country overflowing with ghost stories, so hesitant to talk about them? Brian shares a chilling childhood encounter he has never quite shaken, unpacks his idea of Canada as "the introvert on the global stage," and takes us across the country to explore why some regions embrace the paranormal while others keep it at arm's length. We also dive into Toronto's legendary Philip Experiment, where a group of researchers appeared to summon a ghost they invented, raising unsettling questions about belief, storytelling, and what might be shaping a haunting. Along the way, we explore fear, pop culture, and Indigenous perspectives that challenge the very word "paranormal." If you've ever wondered why Canadians are so shy when it comes to ghosts, press play and find out. If you enjoyed this episode, you might also like:  Episode 196 – Spiritualism in Canada, Eh?

Journalists always warn us of the far right, but where on earth is the far left? When journalists are puffing socialists like Zohran Mamdani, they show where they belong on the ideological spectrum. If they tagged Ilhan Omar or AOC as "far left," our jaws would drop.

Journalist and author William J. Kole joins me to unpack the deep and often hidden ties between white evangelicalism, politics, fear, and America's gun culture. Drawing from his new book In Guns We Trust, Bill shares how his own ministry collided with concealed weapons, why fear has shaped so much of the church's response to gun violence, and how Christian nationalism and the idolizing of the Second Amendment have influenced our national crisis. We talk about the shift from historic Christian nonviolence to the embrace of firearms, the political power that keeps common-sense reforms stalled, and what other countries have done to reduce mass shootings. We also explore why “thoughts and prayers” aren't enough and what a truly pro-life ethic demands of us today. If you long to break cycles of violence and return to the nonviolent way of Jesus, this is an essential and challenging conversation.William J. Kole is a veteran journalist and a former foreign correspondent who has reported from North America, Europe, Africa, and the Middle East. As Vienna bureau chief for The Associated Press, he wrote extensively on the nexus of crime, the weapons trade, arms trafficking and terrorism across Eastern Europe.His evangelical credentials are as extensive as his journalistic ones: He's a former lay missionary for the Assemblies of God, a worship leader at evangelical churches in Europe and around his native New England, and served as board president of Dorcas USA, an international Christian relief and development agency.Kole was AP's New England bureau chief when a gunman armed with a military-style assault rifle massacred 20 first-graders and six adults at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Conn. Earlier in his career, he was a lead writer on the car crash that killed Britain's Princess Diana, and he also covered the arrest of former Yugoslav strongman Slobodan Milosevic, the death of Pope John Paul II, and Kosovo's independence. His many awards include one from the Society of American Business Editors & Writers for an investigation into the exploitation of undocumented immigrants by the Walmart retail chain.Kole, who speaks French, Dutch and German, studied journalism at Boston University and was a journalism fellow at Columbia University in New York and the National Press Foundation in Washington, D.C.

After the publication of the photograph showing Ghislaine Maxwell with her arm around Virginia Roberts while Prince Andrew stands behind them, Maxwell's family responded by attempting to discredit the image through a counter-demonstration they claimed exposed its supposed manipulation. They released photos taken inside Maxwell's bathroom, focusing on the tiled wall and fixtures, arguing that these details did not match the background of the Roberts–Andrew photograph. The intent was to suggest the original image had been staged or altered, with the bathroom setting offered as proof that the widely circulated photograph could not have been taken where Roberts said it was.The effort was widely criticized and quickly unraveled under scrutiny. Journalists and observers noted that the bathroom photos proved little beyond the fact that Maxwell's home had a bathroom, while doing nothing to explain the consistent provenance of the original image, Roberts' contemporaneous possession of it, or the corroborating circumstances surrounding it. Rather than undermining the photograph's credibility, the staged bathroom images were viewed as a clumsy and defensive maneuver that raised more questions about the family's strategy than the authenticity of the evidence itself. In the end, the episode reinforced a familiar pattern in the Epstein saga: aggressive attempts to muddy the waters that only succeeded in drawing greater attention to the underlying allegations and the weakness of the rebuttal offered.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Synopsis:  Meet the fearless reporters who dare to shine a light on dark corners of American politics, tracking extremist groups and debunking disinformation with courage and conviction.Make a tax deductible YEAR END DONATION and become a member go to LauraFlanders.org/donate. This show is made possible by you! Description: Today's guests have paid a price for their reporting on far Right extremists. But if journalists don't do this critical work, then who will? The Trump administration is deprioritizing domestic terrorism to serve a political agenda, scaling back investigations of far-Right extremism while redirecting DHS agents to immigration crackdowns. As programs tracking domestic extremism are dismantled and January 6 rioters are recast as "patriots," journalists find themselves on the frontlines — and their attackers are now people in power. Jordan Green is an investigative reporter for Raw Story whose coverage on far-Right extremism has spanned from Charlottesville to January 6. He is currently working on a book about militant accelerationism. Green also reported on a story we've covered extensively on the show: the attack on two power stations in Moore County, North Carolina. A correspondent for the Texas Observer, investigative journalist Steven Monacelli has been tracking extremism, disinformation, social movements, and the influence of dark money in politics. He received the The Al Neuharth Innovation in Investigative Journalism Award for revealing the identities of far-Right extremists, including government employees. Freelance journalist Amanda Moore embedded with the far Right in 2020 and has faced backlash from far-Right groups for her reporting. Her reporting at present focuses on ICE and Border Control, and her work has appeared in the Nation, Politico, and the Intercept. Join us for this chilling conversation on threats against journalists and the implications for democracy, plus a commentary from Laura.Guests:•  Jordan Green: Investigative Journalist, Raw Story•  Steven Monacelli: Freelance Investigative Journalist; Correspondent, The Texas Observer;  publisher of Protean Magazine, a nonprofit literary magazine; co-founder of Apprentice Creative Space•  Amanda Moore: Freelance Investigative Journalist Watch the episode released on YouTube; airing on PBS World Channel 11:30am ET, and on over 300 public stations across the country (check your listings, or search here via zipcode).

Journalist and author, Brigid Delaney looked into the ancient philosophy during an assignment from her editor. What she discovered led her to years of study and a brand-new outlook on life that focuses less on happiness and more on meaning and contentment.Brigid is devoted to the Stoics, a philosophy that encourages its followers to focus on what they can control, accepting what happens outside of that sphere of control, and mastering inner peace to have a good life.These ideas have helped Brigid prepare for grief and take the edge off her anxiety by putting it in context.One of the most powerful Stoic ideas is that all the wonderful things and people in our life are “on loan” and can be taken away at any moment.Instead of taking them for granted, the Stoics wanted us to run toward them at full speed, and wring as much fun and juice out of them as we can.Further informationBrigid's new book The Seeker And The Sage, and Reasons Not To Worry: How to be Stoic in chaotic times are both published by Allen & Unwin.The Executive Producer of Conversations is Nicola Harrison.This episode contains references to a buddhist with attitude, Nassim Taleb, stoic week, Nero, improving my life, how to improve my life, how to be content, how to find meaning in life, The Guardian, Brigid Delaney's Diary, newspaper column, newspaper columnist, writer, writing life, author, novel, fable, Circles of Hierocles, meditation, Celeste Barber, Wellmania, netflix and internal happiness.To binge even more great episodes of the Conversations podcast with Richard Fidler and Sarah Kanowski go the ABC listen app (Australia) or wherever you get your podcasts.

Investigative journalists⁠ ⁠Mandy Matney⁠⁠ and⁠ ⁠Liz Farrell⁠⁠ talk with attorney⁠ Eric Bland about the coordinated harassment they're facing in the the Beach v. Parker litigation—and why it represents everything broken about South Carolina's legal accountability system. Briefly touching on former Colleton County Clerk Becky Hill pleading guilty without prison time, the conversation shifts to a more insidious problem: lawyers weaponizing their licenses to harass journalists who dare to cover public court filings. Mandy and Liz detail how their personal phone numbers and unverified text messages have been released, how they've been subjected to invasive depositions despite not being parties to the case, and how Greg Parker's legal team continues expanding discovery far beyond the actual pleadings. The trio explores how the phrase "officer of the court" has become meaningless when trust has eroded. With trial approaching in Beach v. Parker, Judge Kelly has an opportunity to draw clear boundaries—but will he? ☕ Cups Up! ⚖️ Episode References “Ex-clerk of court linked to Murdaugh trial pleads guilty to charges, won't serve prison time” - WIS10, Dec 8, 2025
