CELÝ ROZHOVOR V DÉLCE 50 MIN. JEN NA ⁠HTTPS://HEROHERO.CO/CESTMIR⁠⁠⁠⁠ A ⁠HTTPS://FORENDORS.CZ/CESTMIR „Jsem realistický optimista. Na svět nahlížím realisticky, ale ve finále vidím světlo na konci tunelu,“ říká bezpečnostní analytik Vlastislav Bříza na speciálním večeru Čestmír Live: Tři roky na scéně. Vysvětluje, proč se snaží složité mezinárodní události vysvětlovat co nejjednodušeji – aby jim rozuměl každý. „Nechci inklinovat k aktivismu, nechci lidi odradit. Ti nerozhodnutí chtějí slyšet analýzu A, analýzu B a potom syntézu,“ vysvětluje s tím, že i volič SPD pak musí pochopit, že když Ukrajina prohraje, nebudeme v Česku mít tři sta tisíc uprchlíků, ale třeba až pět milionů. Připomíná, že reakci NATO na ruské drony v Polsku považuje za úspěch: během minut vzlétly nizozemské F-35, polské F-16 a italský letoun včasné výstrahy. „Koordinace zafungovala. K žádným zásadním škodám nedošlo, nula lidských obětí,“ chválí alianční reakci Bříza. Zároveň ale varuje, že Evropa není připravená na balistické rakety a vymezuje se také vůči kritice Donalda Trumpa: „Moderní je okopávat mu kotníky, ale já na to nenaskočím. Je to náš nejbližší spojenec a tím nic nevyřešíme,“ nabádá s tím, že je důležité naučit se s prezidentem USA zacházet tak, jak to umí třeba generální tajemník NATO Mark Rutte. Zásadní je podle něj vůle. „Když nemáte vůli se bránit, tak nemáte šanci vyhrát,“ připomíná s odkazem na rok 1938, kdy se podle něj československá společnost měla bránit. „V jakémkoliv jiném státě by na vás koukali, jak tele na nový vrata, že se na to vůbec ptáte. Je přece normální bránit se, když vás někdo napadne,“ tvrdí Bříza. A pak se rozhovor stáčí k jeho vlastní cestě. Vyrůstal v rodině, kde otec koupil společnost Koh-i-Noor. „Slíbil jsem mu, že si udělám i vysokou školu ekonomickou, abych rozuměl podnikání,“ vzpomíná analytik. Dnes se mu ale vedle znalosti mezinárodních vztahů a bezpečnostní politiky hodí i ekonomické vzdělání. „Když se mluví o sankcích, clech, mezinárodním obchodu nebo fiskální politice, rozumím kontextu,“ říká Bříza, který už dvacet let vyučuje na Univerzitě Karlově předmět o jaderném soupeření velmocí a působil v Německu i ve Švédsku. Co dnes znamená být realistickým optimistou v zemi, kde část společnosti pochybuje o Západu a kde sílí hlasy volající po odklonu od podpory Ukrajiny? O čí podpoře v případě eskalace konfliktu s některým z aliančních států Bříza nepochybuje a proč je to noční můra Vladimíra Putina? A může se změnit postoj ČR k NATO nebo ukrajinské pomoci po říjnových volbách? Poslechněte si celý rozhovor.

Penn State is the preseason favorite in the Big Ten, according to KOTN poll. Will the Nittany Lions live up to the expectations? How are they handling them? Doug Lesmerises and Bill Landis check in from Big Ten Media Days in Las Vegas to discuss.

Big Ten Media Days are here, and Kings of the North will be bringing you coverage from Las Vegas all week. To kick things off, here is the KOTN Preseason Big Ten Poll, the largest and most comprehensive Big Ten poll out there. KOTN gathered 54 voters -- at least one beat reporter from every Big Ten team and two from most -- as well as 20 national college football reporters to put together this poll. Doug Lesmerises and Bill Landis break down the results on this episode. That includes Penn State as the pick to win the regular season and the Big Ten Championship Game; a healthy, strong middle of the league; and Ohio State's Jeremiah Smith and Caleb Downs as the Preseason Players of the Year. Thanks for joining KOTN. Catch coverage from Las Vegas all week. And don't miss the new narrative podcast series in your feed -- The 25 Year Winter.

What's going on the world of college football recruiting? KOTN dove in on the 400-plus blue-chip prospects in the 2026 recruiting class to see where there from, where they're going, what the emerging trends are and how the North is doing defending its turf and stealing players from the South. Doug Lesmerises and Bill Landis also discuss Indiana's weak scheduling and a big recruiting win for West Virginia. Plus, Whatcha Watching, Eating and Thinking. Thanks for listening to Kings of the North.

With SEC Media Days underway, KOTN would like to remind everyone that the last time college football gathered in Atlanta, it was to watch two Northern teams play for the national championship, as Ohio State beat Notre Dame. Anyway, let's fix the College Football Playoff. The SEC, Big Ten and Big 12 want different things from the playoff, and Doug Lesmerises and Bill Landis are here to talk out their cases and come up with real solutions that should please everyone. Plus, college football polls are under attack. Are they worth it? A possible plan to save them as well. Thanks for joining Kings of the North.

Is college football's coaching hot seat a real thing? KOTN has always wondered about the talk around coaches in danger of getting fired, and dove in to investigate how coaching pressure really works, and which coaches should be worried or not in 2025. Doug Lesmerises and Bill Landis will give you three categories of coaches who get fired, and candidates for each label, while reminding you there are always firings you don't see coming. And how many coaches should you expect to be fired this season? They have the number. Plus, another KOTN showdown as two teams with coaches on the hot seat are paired up and go head-to-head: It's Mike Locksley and Maryland and Scott Satterfield and Cincinnati.

Doug Lesmerises and Bill Landis discuss it to open this Kings of the North. Then it's onto the heart of the show -- has your Northern college football team had a perfect QB in its history? Based on winning, stats, big plays and legendary aura, has the title of the best QB in your program's history been locked down? Or is it there for the taking? For our 28 Northern teams, the show theorizes that 15 of them have in fact had a perfect quarterback, 9 of them maybe have, and 4 of them have not and are wide open for that title to be taken. From Doug Flutie at Boston College to Marcus Mariota at Oregon, from debates at Notre Dame, Ohio State, Penn State and Michigan to open opportunities at Illinois and Indiana, join KOTN for the search for the perfect QB.

The transfer portal window for the spring is wide open in college football, and Kings of the North isn't looking just at what's happening, but at what are the right ways to go about winning in the portal. On this KOTN, from Oregon, Indiana and Colorado relying heavily on transfers last year, to Iowa, Utah and Iowa State barely doing anything in the portal a year ago, Doug Lesmerises and Bill Landis run through all the numbers and results from Northern teams in the portal in 2024 to find what lessons should be learned. Who's doing the same thing this year, and which teams are changing their portal strategies? Plus Max Olson of ESPN.com visits to share his portal knowledge on how important the spring widow really is, what teams are doing the best job in the portal, which positions have the most value and whether the Nico Iamaleava transfer from Tennessee to UCLA is a one-off or a sign of things to come.
