President Donald Trump approves a landmark energy deal that will establish a civilian nuclear programme in Saudi Arabia. US lawmakers and Israel warn that if the agreement allows the Gulf state to enrich its own uranium, it could pave the way for it to build its own nuclear weapons - but the US insists the deal upholds the "highest standards of nuclear safety". Saudi Arabia has long wanted US nuclear technology, while the US gets a leg up in the competition with China and Russia to develop civilian nuclear infrastructure in the region.Also: A Florida teenager who sued Meta claiming that he was addicted to and harmed by his use of social media platforms, has dropped his lawsuit.

Bob Zimmerman reports that SpaceX is preparing for its 13th Starship flight, a prototype featuring major upgrades for future orbital missions and in-orbit refueling. In India, the startup Skyroot achieved a landmark success with the Vikram-1 rocket, signaling the rise of a private, capitalist space sector. However, the Indian government has counterproductively restricted ISRO employees from leaving for private firms. These contrasting approaches highlight the tension between state-run agencies and the efficiency of private enterprise in the global space race. (11)AUGUST 1955

Having completed half of 2026 it's a good time to sit down with regular contributors Ben Robinson and Rob Gurney of Landmark and Ochresoft respectively to look at what has happened in the property market over the first half of 2026, and what it's in store for the second half. Looking at Landmark's own data, there is a really mixed picture. Listings remain reasonably strong, but demand is falling, evidenced by falling number of sold properties. Conveyancers remain steady but be careful reading too much into comparisons with 2025 warns Gurney. The run up to , and immediate aftermath of the end of SDLT incentives significantly distorts the first half of 2025.Many of the demand side challenges discussed in previous podcasts remain; it will be interesting to see how the Summer, a traditionally quieter time for the property market, pans out, and whether the country benefits from a "Burnham bounce" given the imminent arrival of a new Labour leader, and prime minister.Listen in for the latest market insight and opinions.

Six years ago, aged just 15, Sneha Revanur founded the AI advocacy nonprofit Encode AI — back when AI felt like a niche issue. Now the world's caught up with her, and she's ready to share everything she's learned about the politics of AI.Encode has grown from a grassroots youth organisation to spearheading an unlikely coalition of AI-exposed groups — family-first conservatives, grieving mothers, Hollywood actors, and AI safety researchers — with the strength to take on $125m-funded anti-regulation lobbyists.So far, Encode's strategy of taking many experimental swings has netted major victories (including California's frontier AI safety bill, SB-53, and New York's RAISE Act) as well as some disappointing setbacks.Going up against Big Tech hasn't been easy. In 2025, OpenAI subpoenaed Encode's general counsel at his home, with a sheriff's deputy arriving while he was having dinner with his wife. The fallout went viral, resulting in more attention than Encode had ever experienced — and Sneha was forced to decide how hard to push back against a company she'd need to negotiate with for years to come.In today's conversation, Zershaaneh Qureshi interrogates some of Encode's strategic moves. The pair discuss all the above, plus:How the AI industry's crypto-inspired anti-regulation strategy is not “AGI-pilled”Why AI advocacy doesn't have to be held back by the slow pace of policyHow mutual trust can hold together the unlikeliest of political alliesAdvice for aspiring AI advocates — including how to balance political persuasion with rigorous reasoning Due to technical issues, this episode was recorded across two days (May 26 and 28, 2026) and spliced together.Links to learn more, video, and full transcript: https://80k.info/SRChapters:Cold open (00:00:00) Who's Sneha Revanur?

President Trump called a major bill to address the housing crisis “the most comprehensive and consequential housing legislation in the history of our country,” and a Congress controlled by his own party passed it by overwhelming margins.

Guest: Michael Gold, a congressional correspondent for The New York Times in Washington. Background reading: Mr. Trump's refusal to sign the housing bill complicates a bipartisan effort.

The two take very different positions on the High Court's opinion upholding birthright citizenship in the U-S – striking down President Trump's executive order on that issue. And we'll conclude with a conversation with Michael Beckel of the political reform group Issue One on the Supreme Court's decision striking down limits on party spending in federal elections.

Episode Chapter Summaries Chapter 1: The Roar of Madison Square Garden (00:00 – 02:57) Anne welcomes voice talent and business coach Tom Dheere back to the show. Tom explains his exhaustion, revealing that his neighborhood turned into a massive celebration zone after the New York Knicks won the NBA Championship. Anne shares a parallel memory of experiencing the World Cup celebration in Italy. They note how easy it is to get swept up in a major public triumph, sparking a deep conversation about the hidden work required behind a massive, visible victory. Chapter 2: What is Your Personal Championship? (02:58 – 04:31) Anne and Tom explore how success is rarely an accidental event. Tom challenges listeners to establish their own custom definition of "winning the championship." For a new voice actor, a title might mean booking their first paid gig, securing a national commercial, qualifying for SAG-AFTRA, or generating enough revenue to transition from a full-time day job to part-time creative work. Chapter 3: The Micro-Decision Metric & The Astronaut Analogy (04:32 – 08:25) Tom delivers a powerful perspective shift: your life and your VO career are not highlight reels. True career growth is built entirely on the micro-decisions made in the quiet moments between the milestones. Tom uses an excellent analogy comparing two college students who both want to be astronauts. Assuming equal talent and resources, the student who chooses to stay at their desk studying night after night while friends head to the pub is the one who ultimately makes it to space. Anne relates this to her personal struggle with college calculus, explaining how facing difficult, un-glamorous work builds mandatory professional humility. Chapter 4: Repetition, Homework, and the "Miyagi" Effect (08:26 – 10:25) Anne and Tom discuss the necessity of balancing the quantity of your practice with the quality of your execution. Tom references the classic Karate Kid metaphor: when Mr. Miyagi forces Daniel to paint the fence repetitively, it feels tedious and useless until that exact physical muscle memory becomes his primary shield in battle. Anne notes that this is exactly why she assigns heavy homework to her students, explaining that the real growth happens in the isolated, un-directed hours spent experiencing diverse scripts, handling audio editing, and analyzing text independently between coaching sessions. Chapter 5: Defining a Perfect VO Day & Tracking Patterns (10:26 – 14:43) Tom reveals the very first exercise he gives to his consulting students: detailing what a "perfect voiceover day" looks like, and then breaking down the 82 pre-season steps needed to make that day a reality. They treat auditions like individual games in a long season. Tom highlights why tracking your auditions is vital—not to obsess over your booking ratio, but to gather meta-data. By analyzing his past "thumbs up" ranking scores on Voice 123, Tom discovered a pattern: his primary booking keyword is "upbeat." He now uses that data to specifically filter and prioritize incoming casting notices. Chapter 6: Audition Desperation & The Character Accent Myth (14:44 – 20:20) Anne shares that her highest-booking auditions are consistently the ones she didn't over-analyze or obsess over, allowing her to deliver a natural, storytelling-focused read. Tom explains the corporate psychology behind this: buyers can smell performance desperation. He calls out a major cultural trend where new talent obsess over pitch adjustments and complex accents for animation or gaming, warning that dialects mean nothing if the underlying performance lacks real human connection. Tom uses his background narrating over 70 audiobooks to explain that a heavy accent should never get in the way of a compelling story. Chapter 7: The Production Team & The 3 Ps of Success (20:21 – End) Using basketball as a launching point, Anne and Tom examine the many moving pieces that contribute to a successful voiceover career and production. Together, they discuss the importance of teamwork, adaptability, and professionalism, and why the most successful voice actors learn to balance artistic fulfillment with business realities. Drawing on more than 38 years of combined full-time experience, they conclude with a powerful framework for career longevity: Passion, Practice, and Persistence—the 3 Ps that have helped sustain their own careers and countless others. Top 10 Boss Takeaways Define your own title: Success in the voiceover marketplace is personal. Do not measure your worth against someone else's trophy room; identify the specific professional milestones that equal a win for your business. Ditch the highlight reel mindset: Landmark moments like booking a major corporate client or launching a new website are rare. Your real business is formed by the quiet, un-glamorous work you execute on a rainy Tuesday morning. Master your micro-decisions: Longevity is built incrementally. Choosing to practice copy analysis, market your services, or clean your studio booth instead of succumbing to distractions is the daily habit that separates astronauts from dreamers. The lesson is in the doing: Do not rely on your coach to hand-hold your development. True vocal authority is forged through repetitive script interaction, self-direction, and navigating audio editing hurdles independently. Treat auditions like game tape: Use your submissions as a tool to collect raw data. Track where your auditions originate, identify the performance specifications, and look for structural trends over a 60-to-90-day window. Let the algorithm guide your focus: Platforms like Voice 123 reward positive listener interactions. Analyze your "likes" or shortlisted notices to discover your signature vocal keywords, and use that data to target similar copy. Drop the desperation: The harder you try to force a performative "announcer" melody onto a script, the faster a client will pass on your file. Ground your energy, lean into the narrative truth, and read without artificial worry. Acting outweighs accents: A casting director will instantly forgive an imperfect dialect if the character feels deeply connected, present, and humanly engaged. Prioritize psychological truth over vocal impressions. You are a player, not the whole team: Remember that a voice actor is one specific cog in a much larger production wheel. Show up to sessions directable, pleasant, organized, and ready to collaborate with engineers and directors. Harness the power of the 5-year wall: If you can commit to the industry, learn from your failures, and actively market your booth for longer than five consecutive years, your statistical probability of long-term commercial success skyrockets.

Today, the Supreme Court ruled on two cases that deal with major political battles. The first deals with mail-in voting, which President Trump has criticized for years.

The U.S. Supreme Court issued four major decisions affecting immigration, asylum, gun rights, and federal regulatory authority. In this episode of The Kubik Report, Victor Kubik is joined by veteran journalist Mark Kellner to unpack what the Court actually decided—and why these rulings matter. The discussion begins with the Court's decision allowing the Trump administration to terminate Temporary Protected Status (TPS) for hundreds of thousands of Haitian immigrants and thousands of Syrians. Mark explains the legal reasoning behind the Court's decision, the sharp disagreement among the justices, and the humanitarian concerns raised by lawmakers. The conversation also explores the Court's ruling on asylum seekers waiting in Mexico, clarifying how statutory language shaped the outcome and what it means for future border policy. Victor and Mark then examine the Second Amendment case involving Hawaii's restrictions on firearms carried onto private property, followed by the Court's ruling that federal pesticide regulations preempt certain state lawsuits involving Monsanto's Roundup herbicide. Throughout the discussion, they explore larger constitutional themes including executive authority, judicial review, federalism, statutory interpretation, and the balance between compassion and the rule of law. Rather than focusing on politics, this episode seeks to help listeners better understand how the Supreme Court reaches its decisions and why constitutional interpretation continues to shape American public life.

Nell Irvin Painter is Edwards Professor of American History, Emerita, Princeton University. She also holds degrees in painting from Mason Gross School of the Arts at Rutgers and the Rhode Island School of Design. Painter is the author of many books including Sojourner Truth, A Life, A Symbol; Old in Art School: A Memoir of Starting Over; I Just Keep Talking: A Life in Essays; and the New York Times bestseller The History of White People. She reflects on the origins of A History of White People and her career exploring how race is manufactured and lived along the color line. She also cautions that the race concept structures societies, but that we should always avoid the temptations of race essentialism. Painter counsels that we need to balance hope and pessimism. The Age of Trump is a calamity but this dark time will not last forever. We need to think nationally but work locally to create immediate change in our communities. And Nell Irvin Painter offers some hard-earned advice about being creative for a living, and balancing our personal and familial obligations and material realities such as paying the bills. *This conversation took place in 2024. Given Juneteenth and Trump's escalating assaults on multiracial democracy and the Black Freedom Struggle, I decided that now was the right time to share it with all of you.
Mike examines the growing backlash surrounding the Iran peace negotiations, including criticism from both supporters and opponents of President Trump’s approach. He discusses the role of Israel in the conflict, debates over whether America should pursue a broader military response, and reactions to polling showing strong public support for ending the war. The conversation also explores political anger at home, from disputes over foreign policy to vandalism at national landmarks, before turning to the state of the Republican Party ahead of the midterm elections and ongoing efforts to strengthen election integrity.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
