Podcasts about Kingmaker

Adrian Goldberg highlights a brilliant Byline Times investigation by Nafeez Ahmed and Peter Jukes which exposes the links between Cambridge University, Reform UK and the Trump-supporting US tech billionaire Peter Thiel… The individual who connects all three is James Orr – who is both an associate professor of Divinity at Cambridge AND Head of Policy at Reform. He's been described as Nigel Farage's kingmaker. Orr runs a postgraduate compound in Cambridge , which has hosted various controversial figures including Peter Thiel himself, his protégé, US vice-president JD Vance, Dutch anti-Islam campaigner Ayaan Hirsi Ali and Canadian anti woke activist Jordan Peterson.  Nafeez and Peter raise serious questions about student safeguarding, the funding of Orr's operation and, ultimately, foreign influence in UK politics.

Zach sits down with married couple A.D. and Courtney, who met on their first day at the University of North Texas and have been together, on and off, for over a decade. A.D. runs a coaching brand built around helping men value themselves inside marriage, and Courtney works in a corporate hybrid role while raising their three kids. Zach opens by asking what makes them tick, and gets a lot more than a love story. What follows is a conversation about inherited patterns, the cost of chasing validation, and what happens when two people in the same marriage see the same dynamic completely differently.A.D. traces his approach to relationships back to a chaotic, unstable childhood and a mother whose love felt conditional on performance. He built a framework he calls relationship mathematics, arguing that in any couple, one partner is always the pursuer and one is the pursued, and that most men undervalue themselves in ways that show up as resentment, moodiness, or letting a partner speak to them poorly. Courtney pushes back in real time, particularly on his claim that women need chaos to feel fulfilled. She also brings a sharper account of their two rounds of couples therapy, describing what it felt like to sit across from a therapist who did not stay neutral.What makes this one land is the disagreement itself. A.D. and Courtney do not perform a united front. They correct each other, laugh at each other's memory of their own meet cute, and land in different places on some of the biggest ideas in the episode. Listeners get a real look at how one couple negotiates whose theory of the relationship actually holds up, and why that negotiation might matter more than either theory on its own.Key TakeawaysA man who does not value himself cannot be treated better than he treats himself, no matter how much money or status he accumulatesGrowing up performing for love often turns into needing constant validation as an adultCouples therapy fails fast when a client feels the therapist has taken a side instead of staying neutralFraming a partner's directness as "bullying" can flatten a real need into a character flawNo two people in a relationship show up with equal levels of investment, and naming that imbalance out loud can be clarifying rather than threateningA shared metaphor, like a chessboard, can hold two different perspectives without either partner needing to be wrongHealing a strained parent relationship sometimes starts with a health scare or crisis, but the amends still matter even if the timing feels unfairBroad theories about "how women are" or "how men are" tend to break down the moment they meet an actual partner sitting next to youGuest InfoA.D. and Courtney are a married couple based in the North Dallas area. A.D. works as a relationship coach under the brand name "the Kingmaker," coaching men on self-worth and what he calls the desire equation, and previously worked as an RPA developer before moving into coaching. Courtney works a hybrid corporate role. They have three children together: a 14 year old son, a 3 year old son, and a 1 year old daughter.https://www.instagram.com/adthekingmaker/See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

History tells us the Wars of the Roses was a chivalric struggle between two great houses that ended with Henry Tudor's victory at Bosworth and the dawn of the Tudor age. That's the cover story.What actually happened across 30 years — between 1455 and 1487 — was something much darker. Two cousin lineages of the same royal family, Lancaster and York, fought a sequence of battles that didn't just transfer the crown. They systematically destroyed the English aristocracy. In 1450, England had roughly 200 noble houses with the wealth and military power to shape the kingdom. By 1490, half of them were extinct.At Towton on Palm Sunday, 1461, an estimated 28,000 men died in a single afternoon in a blizzard — the bloodiest day in English military history before or since. Henry Tudor didn't found the Tudor dynasty by defeating Richard III at Bosworth. He inherited a country where the class that could have stopped him had already killed itself.This is the pattern when an aristocracy turns its weapons on itself. It doesn't get replaced by reform or restoration. It gets replaced by something more centralized than what it tried to defend.Today I'm joined by The Medieval Scholar (@MedievalScholar on X) to walk through one of the most thorough acts of aristocratic self-destruction in English history — the political landscape of 1450, the collapse of Henry VI's kingship, Warwick the Kingmaker's betrayals, Edward IV's undefeated military career, the carnage at Towton, the Redemption, Tewkesbury, the disappearance of the Princes in the Tower, and the final Plantagenet stand at Bosworth Field.Follow The Medieval Scholar on X: https://x.com/MedievalScholarSubstack: Medieval Scholar

The not-completely-there king, Henry VI, isn't someone you'd associate with clarity, but in 1470, he sees something with absolute focus. After being presented with his 13-year-old namesake, Henry Tudor, he tells everyone gathered at Westminster Palace that the young Henry is ‘the one'.  While his mother, Margaret Beaufort's thrilled, there is a slight hitch to Henry's apparition. There's still an exiled Edward IV on the loose, and he's about to launch an assault on the coalition that ejected him from the throne at the Battle of Barnet.  It's going to be open season on everyone in the Lancastrian royal court. Warwick the Kingmaker doesn't know what's about to hit him.  – As always, Dan's royal favourites can chime in anytime on the royal court on Patreon at patreon.com/thisishistory. And don't forget to listen to this season's accompanying bonus episodes for this miniseries, where Dan and Producer Al discuss Henry VI's powers of prediction, Margaret Beaufort's political manoeuvring, and why the Battle of Barnet was fought against all logic.  – A Sony Music Entertainment production.  Find more great podcasts from Sony Music Entertainment at sonymusic.com/podcasts  To bring your brand to life in this podcast, email podcastadsales@sonymusic.com  Learn more about your ad choices.  Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices  –– Presented by Dan Jones  Producer - Alan Weedon Senior Producer - Dominic Tyerman Executive Producer - Louisa Field  Executive Producer - Dan Jones Production Manager - Jen Mistri  Production Coordinator - Eric Ryan  Head of Content - Chris Skinner Learn more about your ad choices.

This week on Without A Country, Corinne Fisher breaks down the political shakeups coming out of New York City's primary elections and what Zohran Mamdani's growing influence could mean for the future of the Democratic Party heading into 2028. She examines surprise victories from DSA-backed candidates, the role of endorsements in modern politics, and the broader battle for the direction of the American left. Corinne and Mike also dive into Jimmy Fallon's controversial decision to host Conor McGregor despite the fighter's recent civil seggsual assault ruling. Then, in a deep-dive exposé, Corinne unpacks the bombshell Washington Post investigation into Tulsi Gabbard, her upbringing in the Science of Identity Foundation, allegations of cult-like influence, and the mysterious network of advisers who may have helped shape her political career. Plus: the new report shared by the UN about children in Gaza, the Trump administration's foreign policy moves, Israel and Gaza, international election interference concerns, developments in Cuba, unrest in Bolivia, and staggering rising domestic violence statistics in one US state.0:00 Intro1:20 Welcome to Without a Country2:41 Patreon & show support3:40 NYC's closed primaries explained4:49 On political endorsements 6:28 Brad Lander's win & his political persona9:20 Mamdani's endorsement slate & DSA momentum11:30 Darializa Avila Chevalier's stunning upset15:35 Enemy of the State: Jimmy Fallon20:08 Fallon hosting Conor McGregor26:43 Conor McGregor's r@pe case, explained32:45 McGregor's comeback fight vs. Max Holloway34:54 Deep dive: The Washington Post's Tulsi Gabbard exposé38:08 Tulsi Gabbard's upbringing inside the Science of Identity Foundation42:22 The Informant51:56 Tangent: who actually runs the DSA?59:54 Chris Butler's political origins in Hawaii1:06:31 The 1990s anti-gay-marriage ad featuring young Tulsi1:09:57 On-the-ground investigation in Hawaii1:17:19 Scripted tweets and talking points1:23:59 Attempts to Discredit Informant 1:29:55 Running the memos through Claude AI1:36:12 Gabbard's abrupt departure as DNI1:39:59 Gabbard's parting shots at Fauci over Covid origins1:43:59 The White House's "media offenders" list1:46:54 The UFC 250 White House attack plot1:57:44 So who actually runs the DSA?1:59:20 Why political "vessels" need star power2:04:13 Politico: "Mamdani emerges as kingmaker"2:08:56 Brad Lander's district & the Jewish vote2:21:31 NYT profile: Who is Darializa Avila Chevalier?2:31:57 Could Be Worse: Gaza coverage fatigue & media consolidation2:35:12 UN report: Israel targeting Palestinian children2:39:09 Cuties Corner: the ant slave rebellion2:43:01 Bolivia's state of emergency2:43:29 Colombia's election & Trump's meddling2:44:45 Cuba's economic reforms under US pressure2:46:08 One state's rise in domestic violence2:47:24 Outro & how to support the showSUBSCRIBE TO THE PATREON:https://patreon.com/WithoutACountry?utm_medium=unknown&utm_source=join_link&utm_campaign=creatorshare_creator&utm_content=copyLinkFOLLOW WITHOUT A COUNTRY ON IG: https://www.instagram.com/withoutacountrypodcast/FOLLOW CORINNE ON IG: https://www.instagram.com/philanthropygalFOLLOW MIKE ON IG: https://www.instagram.com/themharrington/FOLLOW ALONG:ENEMY OF THE STATE: JIMMY FALLONhttps://sports.yahoo.com/article/conor-mcgregors-rape-case-explained-210139281.htmlMAIN STORIESTulsi Gabbard exposéhttps://www.washingtonpost.com/investigations/2026/06/21/tulsi-gabbard-her-guru-mysterious-messages-that-helped-shape-her-political-career/Hawaii anti-same sex marriage ad: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tXPH_b_ATioScience of Identity Foundationhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Science_of_Identity_FoundationWHITE HOUSE GREAT LAWN UFC ATTACK PLOThttps://www.justice.gov/usao-sdoh/pr/five-men-arrested-charged-plot-attack-kill-government-officials-others-attending&https://www.npr.org/2026/06/23/nx-s1-5867278/authorities-arrest-suspects-attack-ufc-showMUNICIPALMamdani the Kingmaker https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2026/06/25/mamdani-emerges-tuesday-primaries-big-winner-other-takeaways/Darializa Chevalierhttps://www.nytimes.com/2026/06/23/nyregion/who-is-darializa-avila-chevalier.htmlCOULD BE WORSE/GUUUURLGaza Gen0cide Continueshttps://news.un.org/en/story/2026/06/1167790Boliviahttps://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cr47wn92zdgoTrump & Columbiahttps://www.theguardian.com/world/2026/jun/24/colombia-presidential-election-abelardo-de-la-espriellaCuba Economic Liberalization After Pressure from UShttps://www.democracynow.org/2026/6/22/headlines/under_intense_us_pressure_cuban_lawmakers_approve_sweeping_economic_changesSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Zohran Mamdani is being called a kingmaker, and after this week's New York primaries it's easy to see why. Is the Democratic Party fundamentally shifting left, or are voters simply desperate for an alternative to the 70-year-old status quo?This week on Vibes Only, we break down the massive shockwaves from the New York primary elections. From Mayor Mamdani's new proported kingmaker status to the DSA's historic triple-crown victories upending powerful establishment machines, we look at how young, energetic hustlers are changing the face of campaigning in 2026.Plus, we dive into the heartbreaking $27 million super PAC blitz that took down AI-reform candidate Alex Bores, why Trump is blocking his own bipartisan housing bill over the SAVE Act, and the terrifying reality of national security flying blind after the expiration of FISA. Pull up a chair cause the vibes are chaotic this week, but the analysis we are bringing - it is sharp.Vibes Only is a weekly political podcast hosted by Brian Derrick and Glennis Meagher, two political operatives turned creators breaking down the news of the week in politics, elections, and culture with new episodes EVERY Thursday morning!EPISODE LINKSToday, Explained Episode with Alex BoresTulsi Gabbard Expose by The Washington PostOATH CANDIDATE OF THE WEEKSend us a text!Watch us on YoutubeFollow us on Instagram Oh, we're on TikTok tooFollow Brian on IG Follow Glennis on IG

Could now be the time to see a new party in Government? Better yet, is it time to see a new Kingmaker? The Opportunity Party is nearing the 5% threshold to get into Parliament for the first time in its 10-year history. At the centre of that pitch is a bold Tax Reset policy: a universal Citizens Income, a Land Value Tax, and a major rethink of retirement savings. But the real question now is whether voters are genuinely ready to send Opportunity to Wellington, or whether this is another polling bump that will fade before election day. Today on The Front Page, Opportunity leader Qiulae Wong is with us to talk about the party’s momentum, the policies driving it, and whether this is finally the year TOP crosses the line into Parliament.

Mamdani Emerges As Kingmaker & New Leader Of Democratic Party! Trump Orders Criminal Investigation Of International Oil Companies For Price Fixing! Feds Caught Feminizing Male Fish, Tucker Warns Israel Planning New 9/11

Not one—but three—candidates backed by New York's democratic socialist Mayor Zohran Mamdani just swept their Democratic primaries . A socialist takeover of the Democrat Party is happening right before our eyes, the likes of which we've never seen. All three victors have vowed to "abolish ICE" and "tax the rich"—and they've all accused Israel of genocide . This isn't just about politics anymore—it's about a movement that's openly hostile to the Jewish state and its supporters. Meanwhile, antisemitism in New York is surging. Just this week, Congressman Dan Goldman, a staunch pro-Israel Democrat, lost his primary and got retroactively banned from a Brooklyn coffee shop that called him a "genocide enabler" . The Department of Justice is now investigating the shop for discrimination—but is that enough ? When a sitting congressman can't buy a cup of coffee without being publicly shamed for supporting Israel, and when socialists are sweeping primaries on an anti-Israel platform, you have to ask: Is this the new normal for the Democrat Party?

It's time for a restoration, or rather, re-adeption.  In 1470, Warwick the Kingmaker seizes his moment and slings Henry VI back onto the English throne.  It's fair to say the Lancastrian king doesn't quite get the significance of this moment. He's described by one chronicler as being nothing more than ‘a stuffed wool sack lifted by its ears'.  But Henry makes one pliable puppet for Warwick, who makes himself the king's lieutenant — basically England's decision maker in chief. Lining up behind Warwick are a cast of characters who are more than happy to see England wobble, not least the French King Louis XI.  But beneath Henry VI's return is a tremor that won't settle. There's an ex-king on the loose, and Edward IV is going to do everything he can to avenge his usurpation.   – As always, Dan's royal favourites can chime in anytime on the royal court on Patreon at patreon.com/thisishistory. And don't forget to listen to this season's accompanying bonus episodes for this miniseries, where Dan and Producer Al discuss the weaknesses of Edward IV's early rule, what Henry VI's ‘re-adeption' actually meant, and why Warwick was able to cobble together a coalition that toppled the newly-minted royal House of York.  – A Sony Music Entertainment production.  Find more great podcasts from Sony Music Entertainment at sonymusic.com/podcasts  To bring your brand to life in this podcast, email podcastadsales@sonymusic.com  Learn more about your ad choices.  Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices  –– Presented by Dan Jones  Producer - Alan Weedon Senior Producer - Dominic Tyerman Executive Producer - Louisa Field  Executive Producer - Dan Jones Production Manager - Jen Mistri  Production Coordinator - Eric Ryan  Head of Content - Chris Skinner Learn more about your ad choices.

It's a gorgeous, calculated provocation.  In the summer of 1469, in Calais, the Earl of Warwick, marries his daughter Isabel to George, Duke of Clarence, brother and heir to King Edward IV.  It's another shot across the bow to Edward, who doesn't seem to understand that the kingmaker wants him out. Within weeks, Warwick's rebels crush a royal army at Edgcote and the Kingmaker imprisons the king himself in the Tower of London.  England collapses into anarchy.  Warwick, humbled, is forced to release Edward. Astonishingly, he is pardoned. More astonishingly, he rebels again. Defeated at Losecoat Field, he flees to France, where he finds an unlikely ally.  – As always, Dan's royal favourites can chime in anytime on the royal court on Patreon at patreon.com/thisishistory.

മഹാനായ അലക്സാണ്ടർ ചക്രവർത്തിയുടെ മരണശേഷം അനാഥമായ ഒരു കൂറ്റൻ സാമ്രാജ്യം. അധികാരത്തിന് വേണ്ടി പരസ്പരം പോരടിച്ച ജനറൽമാർ. എന്നാൽ ആ കൂട്ടത്തിൽ ബുദ്ധി കൊണ്ടും തന്ത്രം കൊണ്ടും ഒരു സാമ്രാജ്യം തന്നെ പടുത്തുയർത്തിയ ഒരാളുണ്ടായിരുന്നു - ടോളമി ഒന്നാമൻ. അലക്സാണ്ടറുടെ മൃതദേഹം സിറിയയിൽ വെച്ച് നാടകീയമായി തട്ടിക്കൊണ്ടുപോയി ഈജിപ്തിലെ ഫറവോയായി മാറിയ ടോളമി ഒന്നാമന്റെയും, അറിവിനെ ശക്തിയായി തിരിച്ചറിഞ്ഞ് ലോകപ്രശസ്തമായ അലക്സാണ്ട്രിയ ലൈബ്രറി നിർമ്മിച്ച ടോളമി രണ്ടാമന്റെയും വിസ്മയിപ്പിക്കുന്ന ചരിത്രമാണ് ഈ വീഡിയോ പങ്കുവെക്കുന്നത്.ചരിത്രത്തിലെ ഏറ്റവും ത്രില്ലിംഗ് ആയ ഒരു കാലഘട്ടത്തിലൂടെയുള്ള യാത്രയിലേക്ക് സ്വാഗതം.

Religion God Rejects (1 Samuel 4:2-7:2) | Kingmaker | Mike Kelsey  

In the 1980s, Pamela identified the potential in a defeated Bill Clinton, mentoring him on public presentation and helping him believe in his political future. She used her Georgetown home to raise massive funds, becoming a kingmaker who helped shape the modern Democratic electoral machine. Beyond domestic politics, Pamela played an extraordinary role in Cold War diplomacy. In 1983, she and an ailing Averell traveled to Moscow to open back-channels with Soviet leader Yuri Andropov. Later, Raisa Gorbachev specifically requested to visit Pamela's home, bypassing Nancy Reagan to acknowledge Pamela's role in fostering nuclear arms treaties. During the 1992 election, Pamela drew on Winston Churchill's 1945 defeat to convince Clinton that a popular war-time president like George H.W. Bush could be beaten on economic issues. Clinton credits his reach to the White House to Pamela's strategic guidance and support. (7/8)1654

Are You Available To God? (1 Samuel 3:1 - 4:1) | Kingmaker | Mike Kelsey 

High-performing men often lose attraction at home—not because they stop caring, but because they stop leading. AD Dunbar, known as "The Kingmaker," helps elite CEOs, founders, and executives ($200K–$2M+) restore desire, polarity, and masculine leadership in their marriages—without therapy, emotional negotiation, or "chore play." We discuss how reframing marriage as a leadership arena can reignite intimacy, strengthen authority at home, and balance professional success with personal fulfillment. If you're a high-achiever ready to reclaim attraction and connection in your marriage, this episode provides actionable strategies you can implement immediately.

Most men don't lose their relationships because they stopped trying — they lose them because they never understood what actually creates lasting attraction and respect. In this episode, Chris sits down with A.D. the Kingmaker Dunbar, a former engineer who invested over $200,000 and years of study into understanding relationship dynamics from every angle imaginable — from Muslim men with multiple wives to former pimps and pickup artists. What he found will challenge almost everything men have been told about love, leadership, and being a "good guy." In this episode, you'll discover: The three types of men — peasants, good guys, and kings — and which one you're currently operating as Why "happy wife, happy life" is a trap that produces some of the most miserable men alive The power dynamic hiding in every relationship — and how men unknowingly hand over control without realizing it Why your woman can't respect you more than you respect yourself — and how self-investment changes everything in a relationship The midlife crisis reframe — why A.D. says men should "have the crisis now" instead of waiting until 50 The difference between leading and controlling — and why sexual attraction is the only real dividing line between the two Why men are getting more mediocre results while doing more — and the business analogy that makes it undeniable How to flip a failing relationship dynamic — including the one conversation A.D. says you should be having every month Why testosterone is dropping across all species — and what it means for modern dating and marriage How to love without attachment — and why being willing to walk away is actually the most loving thing a man can do Whether you're single, in a relationship, or a husband looking to reignite what's been lost, this conversation is a wake-up call. A.D. doesn't do shame — but he does make you feel something that leads to a decision.

Once hailed as a beacon of democratic reform in Southeast Asia, Myanmar has devolved into a fractured state defined by a brutal, multi-front civil war following the 2021 military coup. The Junta clings to power in the central cities through terror and forced conscription, while a patchwork of resistance forces controls the periphery but struggles with donor fatigue and ammunition shortages. Yet, following the shockwaves of Operation 1027 and the rise of a narcotics-and-scam-fueled war economy, the conflict has shifted. China, the region's hesitant kingmaker, is now applying direct pressure on both sides to secure its strategic access to the Indian Ocean. With the country effectively split and neither side possessing the strength to deliver a knockout blow, the question remains: is Myanmar destined to fracture like Yugoslavia, or can a unified state still emerge from the ashes? Our panel of experts examines the stalled frontlines, Beijing's evolving strategy, and the grim reality of who, if anyone, can actually govern the nation in 2026. On the panel this week: - Zachary Abuza (National Defence University) - Derek Mitchell (CSIS) - Jason Tower (GI-TOC)  - Steve Ross (Stimson Center) Intro - 00:00 PART I - 02:15 PART II - 34:55 PART III - 1:01:52 PART IV - 1:15:09 Outro - 135:15 Follow the show on https://x.com/TheRedLinePod Follow Michael on https://x.com/MikeHilliardAus Support the show at: https://www.patreon.com/theredlinepodcast Submit Questions and Join the Red Line Discord Server at: https://www.theredlinepodcast.com/discord For more info, please visit: https://www.theredlinepodcast.com/ Learn more about your ad choices.

In this episode, Natalie Grueninger speaks with historian Lauren Johnson about Margaret Beaufort — a child bride turned survivor whose political skill, marriages, and networks helped secure Henry VII's rise. They trace her early life, complex role during the Wars of the Roses, and her close but often-misunderstood relationship with her son and Elizabeth of York. The conversation also busts long-standing myths, explores Margaret's religious patronage and use of early printing, and highlights her cultural legacy. Lauren discusses her new biography, Margaret Beaufort's Survivor Rebel Kingmaker, and why Margaret's story matters today.
