Podcasts about Kosovo

Wat past ons journalisten op deze laatste dag van het jaar nou beter dan een diepe buiging voor Donald Trump en onze grote erkentelijkheid voor de ontelbare verhalen waarmee hij ons heeft overspoeld. En gelukkig is het einde nog niet in zicht. Wees niet verbaasd als hij al in september begint met een campagne waarin hij de uitkomst van de Congresverkiezingen in november vervalst en gestolen gaat noemen. Want er is een kans dat zijn Republikeinse partij zetels verliest. ‘Stop the steal’ is een strijdkreet die nog wel een seizoen meekan. Aparte man, deze kampioen-nieuwsmaker. Je moet goed zoeken om een staatshoofd te vinden dat in zijn kerstboodschap de volgende zin gebruikte: ‘Gelukkig kerst voor iedereen, inclusief het tuig van Radicaallinks dat alles in het werk stelt om ons Land te vernietigen en daarin ernstig faalt’. De man die zegt 8 oorlogen te hebben beëindigd, waaronder een niet bestaande tussen Egypte en Ethiopië, al hebben ze ruzie over een stuwdam, een oorlog in Congo die nog steeds voortwoedt, een mysterieuze tussen Servië en Kosovo. Een man die, ondanks sussende woorden van wensdenkers als Mark Rutte, de hechte eenheid binnen de NAVO heeft veranderd in een transsectionele overeenkomst met de wapenverkoop als uitgangspunt. Een man die gestaag de rechtsstaat ontmantelt. Wat kunnen we het komende jaar verwachten? Misschien de vervulling van zijn wens om Groenland te kopen. Er ligt een mooie kans. Denemarken, waarvan de autonome staat Groenland, met een luidruchtige onafhankelijkheidsbeweging, nog steeds deel uitmaakt, zit met een probleem. Door het totale wegvallen van de briefpost-inkomsten werd besloten het postbedrijf geheel op te heffen, tot groot ongenoegen van veel Denen. Als Denemarken Groenland verkoopt is de opbrengst ruim voldoende om het postbedrijf te redden. Iedereen gelukkig, en Trump kan de volgende niet bestaande oorlog aan zijn lijstje opgeloste oorlogen toevoegen – nummer acht. Uit goede bron horen we dat Trump ook is benaderd door de besturen van Ajax en Feyenoord om te onderhandelen tussen de Amsterdamse F-site en het Rotterdamse Vak-S over vrede tussen deze iconische clubs. En die gaan uit zijn hand eten, want de sanctie heeft hij al gereed: als er geen vrede komt, weigert hij elke speler die ooit voor Ajax of Feyenoord heeft gespeeld een visum voor het WK. Trumps negende vrede. Wat Amerika beslist gaat uiteindelijk ook altijd over ons. Kortom: chapeau, verlaat ons niet en ga zo door, Donald. Hoed ons voor de verveling.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Hoy el Padre Ignacio se nos une desde la selva amazónica en Perú para compartir con nosotros su historia y cómo su fe lo llevó a convertirse en un rescatador de niños. El Padre Ignacio ha rescatado a más de 2500 niños de la venta de órganos, latrata, la prostitución y de la pobreza extrema. Hoy nos cuenta las gracias que ha recibido, como poder ver el rostro de Cristo en los que más sufren y de su opción por vivir y ayudar a los más pobres de los pobres. También, las dificultades del camino porque le han dado palizas y lo han intentado matar varias veces.   Ignacio María Doñoro nació en Bilbao en 1964 y fue ordenado sacerdote en 1989. Siete años más tarde se unió como capellán a las Fuerzas Armadas para dar asistencia espiritual a los militares en el norte de España. Participó de diversas misiones en el extranjero, como Bosnia, Kosovo y El Salvador, antes de ser es destinado a la Comandancia de la Guardia Civil de Inchaurrondo, un centro clave en la lucha contra ETA, donde permaneció durante varios años.  En 2002, estando en El Salvador, conoció a un niño al que sus padres habían vendido para el tráfico de órganos y que estaba próximo a ser entregado. A pesar del peligro, el Padre Ignacio lo rescató. A partir de entonces, el Padre Ignacio coordinó proyectos en El Salvador y abrió casas de rescate en Colombia, Marruecos y Mozambique, que dejó en manos de órdenes religiosas o asociaciones.  En 2011 pidió la excedencia como capellán de las Fuerzas Armadas y creó el Hogar Nazaret, ubicado en el Huallaga central (Región de San Martín), Perú, en una de las regiones de más difícil acceso de la selva del Amazónica. Allí da cobijo aniños, niñas y adolescentes que viven en la más extrema pobreza moral, emocional y material.  El Hogar Nazaret está compuesto por seis centros, dos destinados a niños y chicos adolescentes en la población de Carhuapoma, dos destinados a niñas y chicas adolescentes enel municipio de Bellavista, una escuela de fútbol en Carhuapoma, y el último, que está en construcción, seencuentra en José Pardo. El hogar de niñas es una réplica de El Rocío, un famoso santuario mariano en Huelva. Y en el hogar de los niños se está construyendo una réplica de la iglesia de Medyugorje, lugar de apariciones marianas en Bosnia Herezgovina. El Padre Doñoro ha escrito varios libros: “Hogar Nazaret sueño de Dios”, “El secreto es Jesús”, “Hogar Nazaret” y “El fuego de María”. La lista de premios y condecoraciones que ha recibido es extensa e impresionante.  “No tengo plata ni oro, pero te doy lo que tengo”: un espacio donde encontrarnos con el que verdaderamente nos llena, para que nos tome de la mano, nos levante y nos ponga en camino nuevamente.

El presidente estadounidense Donald Trump se reúne con el primer ministro israelí Benjamin Netanyahu en la residencia del mandatario estadounidense en Florida. Una reunión, la quinta del año entre los dos, en la que está previsto que traten el inicio de la segunda fase del alto el fuego en Gaza. Hablamos también de la conversación entre Donald Trump y Vladimir Putin para abordar el plan de 20 puntos acordado ayer y si ha cambiado tras las acusaciones del Kremlin a Ucrania de haber atacado supuestamente una residencia del presidente ruso. También de Somalilandia y de su reconocimiento como estado independiente por parte de Israel, del accidente de tren que ha dejado 13 muertos y un centenar de heridos en Mexico, de las maniobras chinas muy cerca de Taiwán y de las elecciones en Kosovo. Además tenemos dos entrevistas. Una con Vicente Raimundo, director internacional de Save the children porque no podemos olvidarnos tampoco en estas fechas de que hay muchas personas que viven en situaciones muy desfavorables y lamentablemente muchos son niños. Y otra con la OEI que ha estrenado un documental que se titula Imparables y que recoge historias de superación en cuatro países de América Latina. Hoy nos van a acompañar dos de sus productores.Escuchar audio

US-Präsident Donald Trump hat seinen ukrainischen Amtskollegen Wolodimir Selenski in seine Residenz in Mar-a-Lago eingeladen. Beim Treffen ging es um den 20-Punkte-Friedensplan. Das mit Spannung erwartete Treffen ist ohne greifbare Resultate zu Ende gegangen. Weitere Themen: · Reaktionen auf das Trump-Selenski-Treffen: Europa sieht zumindest Bewegung auf dem Weg zu einem Kriegsende. Sowohl EU-Komissionspräsidentin Ursula von der Leyen als auch der französische Präsident Emmanuel Macron schreiben von Fortschritten. · Bei den Parlamentswahlen im Kosovo gewinnt die Partei von Regierungschef Albin Kurti. Sie kommt auf nicht ganz 50 Prozent der Stimmen. Damit könnte der politische Stillstand im Kosovo ein Ende haben. · China hat mit einer gross angelegten Militärübung rund um Taiwan begonnen. Die chinesische Armee bezeichnet die Manöver als «ernstes Warnsignal» für alle, welche die Unabhängigkeit Taiwans unterstützten.

The Joint Readiness Training Center is pleased to present the one-hundredth-and-twenty-first episode to air on ‘The Crucible - The JRTC Experience'. Hosted by COL Ricky Taylor, the Commander of Ops Group (COG).   Established during the fierce fighting in the Italian campaigns of World War II, 1/82 was employed in multiple brush wars throughout the Cold War as well as in Operation Desert Storm and later as part of Operation Joint Guardian in Kosovo before deploying in support of the Global War on Terror. They have the Hollywood call-sign of “Devil” and the motto of “Strike and Hold.”   This episode brings together commanders from across an Infantry Brigade Combat Team (IBCT) to examine JRTC trends and best practices for preparing units for their hardest days of ground combat in LSCO across multiple domains. A recurring theme is the reality of operating under extreme friction, speed, and uncertainty, where units must fight the enemy—not the plan—while managing constrained planning timelines, high operational tempo, and limited resources. Commanders discuss how early phases of the fight, particularly airborne or austere insertions, expose weaknesses in logistics distribution, predictive sustainment, and mobility, often culminating units faster than anticipated. The panel reinforces that many perceived “logistics problems” are actually distribution and prioritization problems, solvable through disciplined LOGSTATs, predictive analysis, and deliberate LOGSYNC forums that align brigade priorities with battalion-level realities.     Across echelons, leaders emphasize that success in LSCO depends on shared understanding and commander-driven dialogue, not perfect plans. Best practices highlighted include battlefield circulation to validate task and purpose, frequent commander-to-commander and commander-to-staff engagements, and clear articulation of risk to force, risk to mission, and opportunity gained. The discussion underscores persistent challenges in synchronizing fires, maneuver, and sustainment when staffs fall behind the fight, communications degrade, or units outrun their own situational awareness. Survivability and lethality on a transparent battlefield require formations to stay light, manage signatures, rehearse displacement, and ensure every Soldier—not just designated specialists—can employ critical systems like anti-armor weapons. Collectively, the panel reinforces a core JRTC lesson: disciplined fundamentals, predictive logistics, honest risk dialogue, and empowered leaders at echelon are what enable IBCTs to endure, adapt, and win during the opening battles of LSCO.     Part of S02 “If I Would Have Only Known” series.   For additional information and insights from this episode, please check-out our Instagram page @the_jrtc_crucible_podcast.   Follow us by going to: https://linktr.ee/jrtc and then selecting your preferred podcast format.   Again, we'd like to thank our guests for participating.

Send us a textA chance assignment after the Gulf War put Jamie McIntyre inside the Pentagon at the very moment history refused to slow down. From Somalia to Haiti to Kosovo and Iraq, he learned that the defense beat isn't just policy on paper—it's operations, people and real-world stakes. Jamie shares how that era's open access let reporters roam the halls, build sources, and pressure-test official narratives in real time, and why the shift to tighter control is more than an inconvenience—it's a loss for the public.We dive into how he rebuilt his reporting toolkit for a remote-first world: livestreamed hearings, transcript, and a carefully curated X feed that filters signal from noise. Then we compare that to an uncurated stream—an eye-opening look at how the platform can reward rage, rabbit holes and confusion. The takeaway is practical and urgent: your inputs shape your reality, and journalists now serve as both investigators and filters in an age that monetizes doubt.Jamie also opens up about the hardest problem in the craft: convincing people to trust what's true. He was in the Pentagon on 9/11 and later spent a decade engaging “truthers,” never changing a single mind. That experience informs a frank discussion on misinformation and identity, why facts alone often fail and how context-heavy reporting helps readers think more clearly. We wrap with candid advice for younger journalists, a look at Jamie's book plans—either a study of disinformation or a Cold War-era memoir—and a measured sense of hope rooted in history's long arc toward justice.If you value clear, reality-based reporting on defense and national security, hit follow, share the show with a friend, and leave a quick review with the one insight you're taking away today.Links & ResourcesDaily on Defense – Jamie McIntyre's weekday newsletter offering clear, experience-driven context on U.S. defense and national security.

In this episode of Hero or Villain, Roger Moorhouse and Patrick Bishop examine the polarising military legacy of Tony Blair. They debate whether the former Prime Minister was a noble champion of "liberal interventionism" or a reckless architect of regional chaos. The discussion moves from the early humanitarian successes in Kosovo and Sierra Leone to the strategic overreach of Afghanistan and the catastrophic intelligence failures of the Iraq War. By weighing Blair's initial moral imperatives against the long-term destabilisation of the Middle East, Roger and Patrick attempt to settle the ledger on one of modern history's most disputed figures.

Steve Rother joins Trish and Rob for a deeply personal, mind-bending conversation about why we incarnate, how “the Group” first came through, and what it really means to be a spirit pretending to be human. Steve Rother is a pioneering spiritual teacher, channel, and author known for his work with non-physical beings he calls “the Group.” A former general contractor who “went kicking and screaming” into metaphysics, Steve has spent the last three decades teaching worldwide, including five live channels at the United Nations in Vienna and New York. He and his wife traveled the globe for 15 years offering workshops, private sessions, and trainings that help people access their own intuitive and channeling abilities. His latest book, Spiritual Psychology: The Twelve Primary Life Lessons, explores how to understand everyday challenges from a spiritual perspective. In this episode, Steve shares the powerful New Year's Eve beach ceremony that cracked him open to the Group and instantly redirected his life from construction projects to global spiritual work. He explains how his channeling began in old-school internet chat rooms, evolved into books translated into multiple languages, and eventually took him to the UN, where delegates asked questions about everything from Kosovo to planetary evolution. The conversation ranges from soul contracts and past lives to multidimensional realities, the rising feminine, and why we are “spiritual beings trying to cope with being human” rather than humans looking for a spiritual experience. Steve unpacks the Group's teachings on why we choose our parents, lovers, and even our most painful experiences, and how trauma can be reframed so it loses its grip and becomes a source of power. Trish, Rob, and Steve dive into simultaneous lifetimes, the multiverse, and what the Mandela Effect might reveal about thinning walls between dimensions. They also explore extraterrestrials as “extra-dimensional” beings (EDs), nuclear interference by advanced civilizations, and the idea that some ET races function as humanity's parental line. The discussion then turns to AI, anti-gravity tech, quantum and ternary computing, and why Steve believes we are on the verge of a massive technological and spiritual leap.

For review:1. President Trump Orders Blockade of Sanctioned Venezuelan Oil Tankers.2. Speaking at an annual meeting with top military officers, Russian President Putin said Moscow would prefer to achieve its goals and “eliminate the root causes of the conflict” by diplomatic means, but he added that “if the opposing side and its foreign patrons refuse to engage in substantive dialogue, Russia will achieve the liberation of its historical lands by military means.”3. Six Countries Join (Gaza) Board of Peace. The US has secured commitments from Egypt, Qatar, the United Arab Emirates, the United Kingdom, Italy and Germany to have their leaders join US President Donald Trump on the Board of Peace.4. The United States Central Command hosted a conference in Qatar on Tuesday with dozens of partner nations to discuss plans for an International Stabilization Force for the Gaza Strip.Egypt, Indonesia, Qatar, Jordan, the UAE, Italy, France, the UK, and Azerbaijan were among the attendees. Other countries at the summit included Cyprus, Georgia, Canada, Germany, Netherlands, Jordan, Japan, Greece, Singapore, the EU, Saudi Arabia, Poland, Hungary, Bulgaria, Pakistan, Uzbekistan, Kuwait, Morocco, Bahrain, Bosnia, Finland, Kosovo, Kazakhstan, Indonesia, Spain, and Yemen.5. Senators voted 77-20 on a bipartisan basis to send this year's National Defense Authorization Act to the desk of President Donald Trump, who has indicated he will sign the bill. The 2026 NDAA authorizes $900.6 billion in defense funds, or about $8 billion more than the White House's request. 

In this episode of ‘The Voices of War', Maz sits down with two former Australian special operations officers whose careers unfolded at the sharp end of Australia's longest war in Afghanistan. Vando served 24 years in the Australian Army, including 16 in special operations with the Special Air Service Regiment (SASR). Across 10 deployments to Iraq, East Timor, the Solomon Islands, North Africa and three tours of Afghanistan, he held command at troop, squadron and senior staff levels, carrying responsibility across tactical and operational decision-making within the Special Operations Task Group (SOTG). Brett came into special operations through law and intelligence. He first served as the principal intelligence officer (S2) at 1 Commando Regiment and later as the S2 for SASR, before transferring to the Legal Corps. In that role, he advised special operations forces on the laws of armed conflict, rules of engagement, and some of the most complex legal and ethical challenges of the Afghanistan war. His five deployments included Kosovo, three tours of East Timor and an extended tour of Afghanistan. Together, they reflect on their involvement in the award-winning documentary ‘Bravery and Betrayal', unpacking how sustained operational tempo, political decision-making, legal constraints, and leadership silence shaped the war in Afghanistan and what those choices cost individuals, families, veterans, and institutions. This is a conversation about systems, not slogans; about war as it was lived, not how it was sold. Key Moments: - Why special forces became the ‘force of choice' - Endless rotations and the absence of genuine rest - The impact of ‘catch and release' policy on decision-making - How killing became routine over time - The human and institutional fallout of the IGADF inquiry - Moral injury and leadership silence that hurt deepest - Why their story matters now Resources & Links ‘Bravery and Betrayal' documentary WEBSITE https://wanderingwarriors.org/bravery-betrayal-the-documentary/ BRAVERY & BETRAYAL 2025 | Trailer https://youtu.be/-3rS0h-pjqc?si=4_zStLj4KxR7w1xL STREAMING Madman Streaming https://www.madman.com.au/bravery-and-betrayal/ Prime https://www.primevideo.com/region/fe/detail/0I6EPX8QDL0CP8HN9HQTSENWY5?ref_=atv_sr_fle_c_Tn74RA_1_1_ Apple TV https://tv.apple.com/au/movie/bravery-and-betrayal/umc.cmc.1vql2nd3lpc381hnq1xjmxjcx Youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tuzpNCIB_P0 Fetch https://www.fetchtv.com.au/movie/details/3011300/bravery--betrayal Docplay https://www.docplay.com/shows/bravery-betrayal Vimeo https://vimeo.com/ondemand/braverybetrayal/1129397949 DONATE https://wandering-warriors.mygiveeasy.com/bravery-betrayal/donate

L'émission 28 minutes du 16/12/2025 Philippe Boxho : chroniques mortelles à cœur ouvert “Le cul et les écus.” C'est la formule du Dr Philippe Boxho pour expliquer 80 % des meurtres : un amant, une maîtresse, des problèmes financiers et vous avez, dans quatre fois sur cinq, les motifs des crimes. Ce médecin légiste belge de 60 ans a exhumé les charniers du Kosovo en 1999, pratiqué plus de 3 000 autopsies et assisté à plus de 300 procès d'assises au cours de sa vie. Dans son dernier livre, “La mort c'est ma vie” (éditions Kennes), il raconte la mort pour mieux éclairer la vie avec des anecdotes parfois dérangeantes et des histoires surprenantes. Attentat à Sydney : une haine antisémite sans frontières ? Le 14 décembre, à Bondi, la plage la plus connue de Sydney, en Australie, au moins 15 personnes ont été tuées, âgées de 10 à 87 ans, et 42 blessées, dans une attaque terroriste antisémite perpétrée à l'occasion des célébrations de la fête juive de Hanoukka. Dan Elkayam, un Français de 27 ans, a d'ailleurs perdu la vie lors de cette attaque. Les deux assaillants étaient un père de 50 ans et son fils de 24 ans, le premier a été tué, le deuxième est dans un état critique. L'attaque semble “motivée par l'idéologie de l'État islamique”, a affirmé le premier ministre australien, Anthony Albanese, selon les premiers éléments de l'enquête. Depuis les massacres du Hamas le 7 octobre 2023, les actes antisémites ont fortement augmenté en Australie. Il y en a eu plus de 1 650 entre octobre 2024 et septembre 2025. Le gouvernement australien avait commandé un rapport pour lutter contre l'antisémitisme dans un pays qui compte 100 000 juifs soit 0,5 % de la population. La hausse des actes antisémites ne concerne pas seulement l'Australie mais aussi la France et de nombreux pays occidentaux. On en débat avec Simone Rodan-Benzaquen, essayiste et ancienne directrice de l'American Jewish Committee en Europe, Stéphane Ence, historien, et Michel Wieviorka, sociologue spécialiste des questions d'antisémitisme et de racisme. Enfin, Xavier Mauduit revient sur l'histoire du prix Nansen de l'agence de l'ONU pour les réfugiés qui vient d'être remis à un chef de village camerounais. Marie Bonnisseau nous raconte le succès fou du Babybel aux États-Unis où il est considéré comme un “snacking sain”. 28 minutes est le magazine d'actualité d'ARTE, présenté par Élisabeth Quin du lundi au jeudi à 20h05. Renaud Dély est aux commandes de l'émission le vendredi et le samedi. Ce podcast est coproduit par KM et ARTE Radio.

We dive into the B-52's improbable journey from late‑1940s sketch to 21st‑century missile truck, showing how one airframe kept adapting while faster, sleeker, and stealthier rivals fell away.We start with the postwar requirement for a true intercontinental jet bomber and the B-47 lineage that set the blueprint: swept wings, pylon-mounted engines, and bicycle landing gear. A legendary 1948 all‑nighter produced the eight‑engine concept that would define the B-52. From prototype frustrations to smooth first flights, early variants proved the design's range and payload. The lineup matured quickly—shorter tail for low‑level penetration, stronger structure, better nav and bombing systems—building a bomber that could survive changing threats and tactics.Then the missions multiplied. Chrome Dome airborne alert hardened deterrence until risk forced a rethink. Vietnam transformed the Buff through Project Big Belly and Arclight, culminating in Linebacker II, where painful losses drove smarter routing and tactics that reshaped negotiations. The 1991 Gulf War cemented endurance and shock effect with 35‑hour strikes; Kosovo, Afghanistan, and Iraq showcased precision JDAMs and long loiter support. Along the way, the B-52 outlasted would‑be replacements. The B-58 dazzled but was brittle and costly. The B-70 arrived too late for a high‑altitude world. The B-1 lost its nuclear role to treaty math. The B-2, magnificent but rare, became a specialist. The B-52 remained the dependable generalist—adaptable, affordable, and always available.Now the airframe is being reborn. Rolls‑Royce F130 engines, an advanced AESA radar, digital avionics, and new comms push reliability, range, and awareness into modern standards. As the B‑21 Raider takes on penetrating stealth, the B‑52 becomes the standoff arsenal, slinging cruise missiles and hypersonic weapons from far outside dense air defenses. It's a complementary strategy: one slips in, one saturates, and together they stretch adversary defenses thin.If this story surprised you, share it with a friend, hit follow, and leave a review with your favorite B‑52 fact or memory. What should the Buff carry next—hypersonics, drones, or something wilder?Support the showTo help support this podcast and become a PilotPhotog ProCast member: https://www.buzzsprout.com/1555784/supportIf you enjoy this episode, subscribe to this podcast, you can find links to most podcast streaming services here: PilotPhotog Podcast (buzzsprout.com) Sign up for the free weekly newsletter Hangar Flyingwith Tog here: https://hangarflyingwithtog.com You can check out my YouTube channel for many videos on fighter planes here: https://youtube.com/c/PilotPhotog If you'd like to support this podcast via Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/PilotPhotog And finally, you can follow me on Twitter here: https://twitter.com/pilotphotog

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. Now an editor for Axios, he lives in Providence, R.I., and Paris.Bill's Book:In Guns We TrustBill's Recommendation:Jesus and John WayneConnect with Joshua: jjohnson@shiftingculturepodcast.comGo to www.shiftingculturepodcast.com to interact and donate.

Send us a textWhat does it really cost to lead with integrity when the system leans the other way? We sit down with Forrest, a former naval flight officer and mission commander, whose career bends from high school dropout to strike planner for Kosovo—and later into the crosshairs after he refused to hide a serious security breach on a remote island base. The stories move fast: carrier decks and air tasking orders, isolated duty stations that no one wanted, and the everyday creativity required to keep crews motivated and safe.Forrest opens up about the moment a civilian smuggled a pistol and ammo onto San Nicolas Island to kill feral cats, how his CO ordered him to bury the report, and why he said no. That choice triggered nineteen charges, an NCIS probe, a revoked clearance, and threats of prison and pension loss. With a sharp JAG at his side and a website full of documents, he fought back, demanded a court-martial, and watched the case crumble. Along the way, we talk Desert Storm's waning days, the grind of multinational targeting in Kosovo, and the hard truth that institutions can honor your work on Monday and disown you by Friday.Beyond the uniform, Forrest built a thriving charter operation in California, rescued people at sea, and eventually traded the coast for Idaho, where a wolf encounter became a courtroom headline. The through line is steady: tell the truth, document everything, and keep showing up for the people who count on you. If you care about military leadership, whistleblower courage, and practical strategies for advocacy when the process turns against you, you'll find real tools here—plus candid advice on writing a memorable military memoir that sticks to facts and reads like lived experience.If this conversation resonates, follow the show, share it with a friend who needs a lift, and leave a quick review so more listeners can find these stories.

For the Glory KC is back with the 156th episode of the show!The headline for Kansas City soccer this week is the World Cup! The FIFA World Cup draw went down last Friday with games announced on Saturday. Kansas City get six games in the 2026 World Cup, and the first four matchups are now known:1st: Argentina vs. Algeria on June 16th at 8PM 2nd: Ecuador vs Curacao, June 20th at 7PM3rd: Tunisia vs. Netherlands, June 25th at 6PM4th: Algeria vs. Austria, June 27th at 9PMKC also host a July 3rd round of 32 game and a July 11th quarterfinal, that could feature Messi vs. Ronaldo. If Argentina and Portugal win their groups and their first two knockout games then the biggest game in the world (before the final) will be in Kansas City. That's all assuming Messi even plays. And that they are both healthy. It's a long-shot, but it could happen!The United States Men's National team also found out their group, and it's quite winnable. They start off against Paraguay and also play Australia and the winner of the UEFA playoff between Turkiye, Slovakia, Romania and Kosovo. The USMNT could even play in Kansas City if everything falls the right way, but part of that is them ending up third in their group, which would be a disappointment. Sporting Kansas City are still top of mind with a few big moments this week. First, Kerry Zavagnin officially parted ways with the club after 26 years. Sheena and I give our thoughts and then we share the rumor of two potential replacement coaching candidates. Raphael Wicky, who is a rumored finalist, is who we know the most about after this time with the Chicago Fire.In other Sporting KC news, they have a rumored goalkeeper trade. It'll be the team's fourth keeper if Stefan Cleveland officially arrives from Austin FC. He's never been a long-term starter, but at 31-years-old he can push John Pulskamp and share what he's learned behind some of the best keepers in the league while playing for the Seattle Sounders and Austin FC.In KC Current news, the team signed new two-year contracts with Mary Long and Katie Scott, officially said goodbye to goalkeeper Laurel Ivory and saw their former star defender, Hailie Mace, sign with the Orlando Pride.They also had a less than stellar showing in the World Sevens Football competition over the weekend.In the Digital Crawl, we hit on a few more topics, including:Trinity Rodman possible leaving the NWSLMLS Cup between Inter Miami and the Vancouver WhitecapsKS Astras win their MASLW openerFormer Swope Park Rangers coach, Marc dos Santos, gets a big upgradeHere is a rundown of topics and start times:World Cup and Kansas City - Sporting KC Coaching Update - SKC Round-Up including a rumored trade - KC Current World Sevens and more - She Scores - Digital Crawl - Upcoming GameKS Astras vs. Iowa Raptors, Sat.

Kosovo podiglo optužnicu protiv tri osobe zbog eksplozije na kanalu Ibar-Lepenac, među njima pukovnik Vojno-obaveštajne službe Srbije. Međunarodna NVO Srbiju svrstala u kategoriju "pod represijom". Posle Londona i Brisela, Zelenski u Rimu u kampanji za evropsku podršku.

Il Kosovo è un luogo ferito e tuttora diviso dai postumi della guerra di fine anni ‘90 ma anche una comunità che sta cercando di ricostruirsi attraverso la cultura. In un Paese dove le tensioni etniche, il conflitto e la ricostruzione nazionale hanno segnato profondamente il tessuto sociale, il teatro civile è diventato la voce che manca ai tribunali e alle piazze. Da alcuni anni, la compagnia teatrale Qendra Multimedia del drammaturgo Jeton Neziraj è diventata l'avanguardia di un movimento che si sta allargando in tutti i Balcani occidentali. L'idea di fondo è che in un contesto dove il conflitto recente ha lasciato cicatrici profonde — sul piano etnico, sociale, economico — il teatro può diventare spazio di testimonianza, riflessione e trasformazione. A coronamento di questo lavoro, da alcuni anni viene organizzato il Kosovo Theatre Showcase, una rassegna teatrale annuale che serve da piattaforma di promozione, networking e scambio per la scena teatrale locale e internazionale. Quest'anno l'appuntamento si è svolto tra le città kosovare di Prizren, Gjakova e Prishtina per poi spostarsi a Skopje, in Macedonia del Nord, proponendo una decina di produzioni teatrali affiancate da incontri con artisti, workshop per drammaturghi e critici. Ci siamo andati per indagare questo fenomeno e per comprendere come il teatro può contribuire a rielaborare i traumi collettivi della guerra. undefined

Discuté depuis 2021, le projet danois de location de places de prison au Kosovo pour y envoyer des criminels condamnés, originaires de pays non membres de l'Union européenne, prend petit à petit forme. Contre 200 millions d'euros, l'un des pays les plus riches d'Europe veut envoyer 300 prisonniers vers l'un des plus pauvres. Le Danemark, qui avait soutenu l'intervention de l'Otan en 1999 et l'indépendance du Kosovo, voit dans ce projet une coopération gagnant-gagnant. Mais sur place, le sujet divise. Surtout que ce genre de projets se multiplient dans des pays des Balkans, toujours tenus à la porte de l'UE. De notre correspondant à Gjilan dans le sud du Kosovo, La route goudronnée s'arrête à quelques dizaines de mètres des miradors. Perchée sur une colline sans arbres, juste au-dessus d'un village et de sa mosquée, la prison de Gjilan surplombe la deuxième ville du Kosovo. Une fois passé les portiques et les grilles de sécurité, le bruit des clés des gardiens résonne dans des couloirs particulièrement propres. Selon l'accord ratifié en 2024 à une large majorité par le Parlement, les prisonniers kosovars qui font aujourd'hui les 100 pas dans la prison de Gjilan devraient laisser la place à des détenus condamnés par la justice danoise, à 2 000 kilomètres du Kosovo.

Ce seront principalement des personnes condamnées à des peines de 5 à 10 ans de prison et originaires de pays tiers. On espère que cette collaboration sera un succès et un modèle pour d'autres pays », précise Ismaïl Dibrani, directeur général du système pénitentiaire du Kosovo. Les premiers détenus en provenance de Copenhague ne sont annoncés que pour avril 2027. Mais déjà, de nombreux pays comme la France ou la Belgique auraient demandé à pouvoir eux aussi louer des places de prison au Kosovo. À quelques kilomètres de la prison, le projet danois n'anime pas vraiment les conversations du centre piéton de Gjilan. Zarife Asllani en veut au gouvernement kosovar d'avoir signé un tel accord. Pour cette psychologue sociale de 38 ans, « c'est un mauvais accord. Nous ne sommes pas contre ces prisonniers. Mais ces 200 millions d'euros, cela aurait été mieux de les investir autrement au Kosovo ».

Les autorités de Pristina présentent cet accord comme un moyen de rembourser une dette historique et de conforter ses soutiens diplomatiques. Originaire de Gjilan, l'activiste Donika Emini dénonce une dérive honteuse. « Ces accords transforment les Balkans en dépotoir des pays riches, qui font ici ce qu'ils ne peuvent pas faire chez eux. C'est vraiment très problématique et hypocrite. Par exemple, dans le cas du Danemark, qui est un pays qui est toujours au sommet des classements internationaux pour son respect des droits humains. » À la demande de Washington, le Premier ministre kosovar, Albin Kurti, a également accepté d'accueillir 50 ressortissants latino-américains expulsés des États-Unis. Un geste de reconnaissance éternelle envers le principal soutien du Kosovo, mais qui n'a pour l'instant pas dépassé l'effet d'annonce.

Dr. Jody Daniels, former Chief of Army Reserve and former Commanding General of the U.S. Army Reserve. Daniels walks through the leadership lessons she carried from early service in Kosovo, intelligence work in Iraq, and later senior roles guiding Reserve Soldiers at home and abroad. Daniels explains her unexpected path into senior leadership, emphasizing that she never set out to be “the one in charge.” Instead, she focused on doing the job well, supporting others, and staying open to new opportunities. That mindset shaped her approach as she led Soldiers across diverse missions, including major domestic disaster support operations. Throughout the conversation, she shares how she learned to identify talent, communicate clearly, and maintain humility without lowering expectations. A major portion of the discussion centers on the structure and capabilities of the U.S. Army Reserve. Daniels clarifies what the Reserve actually provides during large-scale disasters—logistics, engineering, medical support, transportation, civil affairs, and other essential functions that complement civilian response efforts. Scardena and Daniels talk through the practical realities of integrating military support with local, state, and federal partners, highlighting the value of experienced liaison officers and thoughtful coordination. They also dive into organizational culture: how teams function, why trust matters, and how leaders cultivate an environment where people feel comfortable speaking honestly while maintaining professionalism. Daniels outlines the difference between being “in a position of impact” and “being influential,” reinforcing that titles alone don't create effective leadership. Toward the end of the episode, Daniels shares one of her guiding principles: choose purpose over passion. Passion can shift with time, but purpose—anchored in service, responsibility, and long-term commitment—creates clarity throughout a career. It's the mindset that carried her from junior officer to her final role leading the Army Reserve. This episode offers a grounded look at leadership, service, and the realities of military support to disaster operations, delivered with the straightforward clarity Dr. Daniels is known for.
