In this special Cannes Lions edition of the Programmatic Digest Podcast (Español), host Manuela Cortes sits down with Alberto Grande, Regional Lead at EXTE, to explore the evolving media landscape in Latin America. Alberto shares how his team built a creative-first programmatic powerhouse from scratch, the growing impact of Connected TV (CTV) across LATAM, and how partnerships like LG are redefining attention metrics. They also dive into market-specific buying behavior, cultural preferences in ad formats, and the challenge of measuring outcomes beyond CTR. If you're curious about how CTV is scaling in LATAM—and what global marketers can learn from it—this episode is packed with insight.    

In Episode 27 of Geopolitics with Ghost, Ghost breaks down the accelerating power shift from a Western-led unipolar world to a multipolar global order anchored by BRICS. He explains how countries in Africa, Latin America, and the Middle East are increasingly rejecting the IMF-WEF model and aligning with BRICS initiatives, seeking true sovereignty through energy independence and currency reform. Ghost highlights how U.S. foreign policy failures, from Afghanistan to Ukraine, have exposed the collapsing influence of American hegemony, pushing allies and adversaries alike toward strategic realignments. With candid insights on India's delicate BRICS balancing act, South Africa's rising role, and how the Western elite scramble to repackage their globalist agenda through climate and ESG narratives, this episode offers a big-picture look at why the Global South is no longer playing by Washington's rules.

The following article of the E-Commerce & Retail industry is: “Rethinking Recirculation for Retailers” by  Sergio Thome, Regional General Manager - Latin America, Sensormatic.

Eduardo Montano is the Founder and CEO of Colegio Montano, a pioneering educational institution with two in-person campuses and a fully online school based in Guatemala City. A serial entrepreneur, he launched his first business at age 18 and has since founded more than a dozen companies across tech, education, and services — including Publinet, Prointel, MAC, S.A., and Escolaris. He is the bestselling author of Foro Familiar and EXTRAordinarios and a sought-after speaker who has addressed audiences of thousands throughout Latin America. Eduardo also serves on the global board of the Entrepreneurs' Organization, where he contributes to peer learning and international leadership networks. In this episode… As parents navigate a rapidly changing world driven by technology and artificial intelligence, one looming question remains: How do we ensure our children are not only prepared for the future but also emotionally grounded and resilient? With digital distractions on the rise and traditional education systems struggling to adapt, the role of parents in shaping children's development is more vital than ever. Eduardo Montano, a highly accomplished entrepreneur and visionary in education, dives deep into actionable strategies for raising future-ready children. Drawing from his experience running three schools and authoring books on parenting, Eduardo introduces the concept of the "Family Forum" — a structured, engaging method for families to build trust, solve problems, and foster emotional intelligence. Eduardo also unpacks the 14 “power skills” he believes are critical for success and happiness in the AI era, emphasizing self-directed learning and digital literacy. Tune in to this episode of the Smart Business Revolution Podcast as John Corcoran interviews Eduardo Montano, CEO of Colegio Montano, about parenting strategies for the AI age. Eduardo shares insights on developing emotional intelligence, teaching kids goal-setting, and integrating AI into education. He also discusses family communication methods, skill-building techniques, and the evolving role of schools.

The severe challenges and unforeseen possibilities facing humanity today cry out for clarity. We need it all: poetry and politics, art and the people's army, agitation and organization, theory and practice, deep study and sustained action, joy and justice, both the moments of quiet contemplation and the times of swift, sharp thrusts, dreams as well as deeds. We're delighted to be joined from Santiago, Chile by Vijay Prashad, a preeminent Marxist theorist and activist intellectual. His work continues the initiative of the Tricontinental Conference in Cuba which brought together revolutionary movements from Africa, Asia and Latin America. Today Vijay is the executive director of Tricontinental: Institute for Social Research, and an advisory board member of the US Campaign for the Academic and Cultural Boycott of Israel. Vijay is refreshingly dialectical in his thinking and writing—witness a dangerous mind in ongoing argument with itself.

Join Jim and Greg for the Tuesday 3 Martini Lunch. Today, they applaud President Trump for ratcheting up the pressure on Vladimir Putin and scold him for refusing to allow the president of Taiwan to visit the U.S. And they examine the arrest of the illegal alien serving as a police officer in Maine. First, after noting the passing of Chicago Cubs legend Ryne Sandberg, they cheer President Trump for giving Putin a firm 10–12 day deadline to end the war in Ukraine. Trump appears to be losing patience with Putin's broken promises and ongoing escalations. Jim and Greg also explore how Trump might respond if Putin ignores the warning, and they question America's continued dependence on adversaries like Russia and China for materials vital to national security.Next, they slam Trump's refusal to let Taiwanese President Lai Ching-te stop in New York City en route to Latin America. While the move may be tied to sensitive trade talks with Beijing, Jim argues the U.S. should never let China dictate who can enter our country. They also examine how this decision may embolden the Chinese government. Finally, they break down the arrest of an illegal immigrant in Maine who was not only trying to buy a gun but was already working as a local police officer. While officials claim to have used E-Verify to confirm his status, Jim notes the system can't verify whether applicants actually own the documents they present.Please visit our great sponsors:No missed calls, no missed customers with OpenPhone.

Recently, I had the pleasure of sitting down over Zoom & chatting with one of my favorite couples, Chris & Elizabeth Cantwell. An L.A.-based television & comic book writer, listeners first heard Chris discuss his work on the brilliant series he co-created HALT & CATCH FIRE in one of Watch With Jen's most popular episodes. His wife is the ever-insightful, poet, teacher, scholar, & Bright Wall/Dark Room essayist & editor Elizabeth Cantwell, who has taught me so much about horror movies over the years.Originally recorded just to cut together into a larger episode alongside other chats about recent Criterion 4K releases, since the podcast is still on a break while I'm dealing with an autoimmune issue, I thought it'd be fun just to release it as an enjoyable, short, thoughtful, story-filled summer coda to the pod. It's also a vital reminder that, while you're planning your vacations in August, to try to avoid any undertaking which requires driving a big rig filled with unstable nitroglycerin across rickety bridges when you're on the run with fake papers in Latin America. That's right, Chris & Elizabeth are here to discuss William Friedkin's masterful 1977 picture SORCERER, which has gained new appreciation over the last decade especially, yet remains one of his most unsung, fascinating, mind-bogglingly ambitious works.Originally Posted on Patreon (7/29/25) here: https://www.patreon.com/posts/watch-with-jen-5-135241438Shop Watch With Jen logo Merchandise in Logo Designer Kate Gabrielle's Threadless ShopDonate to the Pod via Ko-fiTheme Music: Solo Acoustic Guitar by Jason Shaw, Free Music Archive

Under President Santiago Peña, Paraguay is enjoying economic stability, the fastest growth in Latin America, the lowest debt to GDP ratio in the region, a stable currency and the award of investment grade status for the first time ever. And, while this is impressive and cause for celebration, analysts are asking what the Paraguayan government is doing to combat corruption? On The LatinNews Podcast this week, we speak to Andrew Nickson, Honorary Reader in Public Management and Latin American Studies at the University of Birmingham and ask about Peña's successes and his shortcomings over the first two years of his government, and what we can predict for the remaining three years. Follow LatinNews for analysis on economic, political, and security developments in Latin America & the Caribbean.

See 20 other misused terms or expressions Rather than a left/right political spectrum, I prefer the 5 categories in the pictured grid. Take the test to discover where you stand. The terms "left" and "right" on the political spectrum can be confusing, partly because their meanings have evolved significantly over time and differ across countries and historical contexts. The same applies to the term "liberal." Initially, "left/right" originated from the seating arrangements during the French Revolution, where those who sat on the left supported revolutionary change. At the same time, those on the right favored the monarchy and the status quo. Today, “left” generally refers to progressive, reformist, or socialist policies, and “right” to conservative or traditionalist views. However, the specific policies and ideologies associated with each can vary dramatically between countries and eras. In the United States, “left” is often associated with Democrats or progressives, supporting ideas like social welfare, civil rights expansion, and government intervention in the economy. In parts of Europe, some parties that call themselves "liberal" actually promote free-market policies (which, in the U.S., are usually considered “right” of center). In Latin America, "right-wing" can sometimes mean supporting authoritarian regimes, while “left-wing” can carry connotations of populist or anti-imperialist movements, which again differ from European or North American understandings. The term "Liberal" is another example of shifting meaning: In the United States, "liberal" tends to refer to people who favor more government intervention in social and economic affairs, aligning with the political left. In the UK, "Liberal" historically meant support for free markets, individual liberties, and limited government, often closer to what Americans would call "libertarian" or even (in some cases) "conservative." In Australia or Canada, "liberal" can fall anywhere along the spectrum: in Australia, the Liberal Party is a major right-of-center party. Because political contexts, historical developments, and party platforms differ by place and time, these terms do not have a fixed, universal meaning. As a result, simply labeling someone or a policy as “left,” “right,” or "liberal" can cause confusion or miscommunication unless the specific context is clearly defined.

Comment on the Show by Sending Mark a Text Message.The global workplace teeters on the edge of a major shift, and Gallup's State of the Global Workplace 2025 report confirms what many have sensed. Employee engagement has fallen from 23% to 21% in 2024, mirroring the drop seen during COVID-19 lockdowns and costing the global economy a staggering $438 billion in lost productivity.Surprisingly, the primary driver isn't frontline worker burnout but a significant decline in manager engagement, which fell from 30% to 27%. Young managers under 35 saw their engagement drop by five percentage points, while female managers experienced an alarming seven-point decline. Caught between increasing executive demands and evolving employee expectations, managers are being asked to "square the circle" – achieve the impossible amid constant disruption.This matters tremendously because 70% of team engagement is directly attributable to the manager. When they struggle, teams inevitably follow suit, creating a devastating ripple effect throughout organizations. The connection between engagement and overall wellbeing is equally clear – half of engaged employees report thriving in their overall lives, compared to just one-third of disengaged workers.Yet hidden within this challenge lies a transformative opportunity. Gallup estimates a fully engaged global workforce could add $9.6 trillion to the world economy – equivalent to about 9% of global GDP. The pathway to unlocking this potential is surprisingly achievable: providing basic manager training (currently missing for 56% of managers), teaching effective coaching techniques, and implementing ongoing development focused on wellbeing.Regional variations add fascinating context to the global picture. The US, Canada, Latin America and the Caribbean lead with 31% engagement, while Europe lags significantly at just 13%. Australia and New Zealand boast the highest thriving rates at 56%, contrasting sharply with South Asia's concerning 15%.As artificial intelligence transforms workplaces worldwide, this pivotal moment demands strategic choices. Will organizations leverage technology to elevate human potential or risk further disengagement? The data makes one thing abundantly clear: the future of work isn't fundamentally about technology – it's about human connection, empathetic leadership, and strategic development of our most valuable resource: people.

Granger welcomes a very special guest, his 13-year-old daughter, London, fresh off their latest short-term mission trip to a remote, unnamed country in Latin America. What begins as a story of gospel proclamation and cultural immersion quickly unfolds into a powerful testimony of faith, hardship, and divine provision. Together, they recount their challenging trek through rugged mountains, tent camping in the jungle, filtered river water, spiritist encounters, and gospel conversations with villagers who had never heard the name of Jesus. Granger shares the importance of proclaiming—not just presenting—the gospel, and how discipling local missionaries brings lasting impact. But the story doesn’t end there. On their return home, a once-in-a-lifetime storm derails their journey in dramatic fashion, stranding them in Atlanta with no luggage, no hotel, and no way out. What follows is a chaotic but providential journey involving canceled flights, closed doors, a stranger at a gas station, and an Uber ride that turns into a divine appointment. This isn’t just an episode about a mission trip. It’s a testimony to the goodness of God—even when everything falls apart. ***************************** See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In the early 20th century Argentina was one of the world's richest countries. For most of the past 50 years, it has been an economic disaster. But after nine debt defaults, 23 IMF programmes and two years of triple-digit annual inflation, the country's radical libertarian president, Javier Milei, has steadied the ship. How has Milei revitalised the economy? Can he persuade investors to trust Argentina again? And, most crucially, can his transformation last? The FT's Latin America editor, Michael Stott, discusses with Alejandro Werner, former head of the IMF's western hemisphere department, founding director of the Georgetown Americas Institute, and fellow of the Peterson Institute for International EconomicsClips: Sky Australia, Javier Milei via Storyful/ELPELUCAMILEI, Global News, Poder360Want more?

Hi, I'm John Sorensen, President of Evangelism Explosion International, and you're listening to Share Life Today. We are so excited to share more stories about what's happening around the globe with you. And this week, our spotlight is Latin America! God is so faithful. Truly, as we walk with Him and seek His will, God shows up. And as we're faithful to His command to share the Gospel, we see Him change lives before our very eyes! This happened in Latin America this past year. At one of our evangelism discipleship trainings in Colombia, Milagro came to learn more about God and evangelism. During the training, she felt God speak to her regarding salvation and revealed to her that she couldn't do enough good works to save herself. Only by placing her trust in Jesus and what He did on the cross could she be saved. She felt like a woman free of working her way to heaven. She told us joyfully, “It is by the grace of God that I'm saved!” Want to learn how you can share the Gospel clearly? Well, visit our website at sharelife.today.

I always keep a copy in my pocket, and I share it with people who are curious about our standards. It has been updated and refreshed to better cope with the challenges and temptations of our day. The new version of For the Strength of Youth is available online in 50 different languages and will also be available in print. It will be a significant help for making choices in your life. Please embrace it as your own and share it with your friends. This new version of For the Strength of Youth is subtitled A Guide for Making Choices. To be very clear, the best guide you can possibly have for making choices is Jesus Christ. Jesus Christ is the strength of youth. So the purpose of For the Strength of Youth is to point you to Him. It teaches you eternal truths of His restored gospel—truths about who you are, who He is, and what you can accomplish with His strength. It teaches you how to make righteous choices based on those eternal truths.13 It's also important to know what For the Strength of Youth does not do. It doesn't make decisions for you. It doesn't give you a “yes” or “no” about every choice you might ever face. For the Strength of Youth focuses on the foundation for your choices. It focuses on values, principles, and doctrine instead of every specific behavior. The Lord, through His prophets, has always been guiding us in that direction. He is pleading with us to “increase [our] spiritual capacity to receive revelation.”14 He is inviting us to “hear Him.”15 He is calling us to follow Him in higher and holier ways.16 And we are learning in a similar way every week in Come, Follow Me.   American Conservative University Podcast (ACU) is not an official representative for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints.

Shakira BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.Shakira has secured another major global headline by being announced as a principal headliner for the 2025 Global Citizen Festival, set for September 27 in Central Park, New York. This is not just another gig—she'll be sharing the bill with megastars like The Weeknd, Tyla, Ayra Starr, and Mariah the Scientist, while Hugh Jackman returns for his eleventh year as host. According to the official Global Citizen campaign, this year's focus includes providing energy access to a million people across Africa, mobilizing 200 million dollars to safeguard 30 million hectares of the Amazon rainforest, and delivering quality education, in partnership with FIFA, to 30,000 children globally. Shakira spoke about her motivation for joining the festival, saying she's “honored to headline the incredible Global Citizen Festival in Central Park this September… Music has always been my way of connecting with people and leaving a mark on the world. I can't wait to perform, unite, and inspire action.” Press from CBS News New York and TimeOut New York has echoed how significant this platform is, especially given its intersection of entertainment and urgent global activism. Tickets are once again technically free, but hopeful attendees have to participate in advocacy actions to gain entry.This Central Park appearance is uniquely timed as a standout pause from her ongoing Las Mujeres Ya No Lloran World Tour, which continues to make waves across the U.S. and will soon hit Latin America, including Mexico, Argentina, Uruguay, Paraguay, Chile, and Ecuador. Her recent stadium show at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas, announced and promoted heavily by the venue, reaffirmed her enduring arena-filling appeal. On social media, Shakira's engagement shows no signs of slowing. An Instagram video surfaced this week where Shakira appears recharging in the sun, teasing fans to “expect more for your hair,” fueling speculation about a possible new beauty or personal care collaboration, though details remain unconfirmed.Looking at recent trending headlines, the festival announcement has dominated reputable outlets like CBS, TimeOut, and Global Citizen's own platform, elevating Shakira's current activities to the level of biographical significance—this is a global impact moment, not just a musical milestone. No major controversies or negative news tied to Shakira herself have broken through in the last few days. While less substantial, Shakira also became an unexpected talking point in viral pop culture when another Shakira—Love Island UK's Shakira Khan—sparked debate for her fame-related comments, but there is no relation to the artist, and confusion seems limited to fleeting social media buzz. At this pace, Shakira's 2025 looks not just busy, but legacy-defining.Get the best deals https://amzn.to/3ODvOta

First up, Ralph welcomes the co-founders of Doctors Against Genocide, Dr. Karameh Hawash-Kuemmerle and Dr. Nidal Jboor, to discuss their dedication to succeeding where global governments have failed in confronting genocide—particularly the acute genocide in Gaza. Then, Ralph speaks to Marcus Sims, who turns felled and fallen trees into sustainable-harvested lumber with his company Treincarnation. Finally, Ralph has co-written an open letter to Barack Obama, urging him to step up and do his part to fight against Donald Trump.Dr. Karameh Hawash-Kuemmerle is a clinical pediatric neurologist who specializes in traumatic brain injury and epilepsy at Boston Children's Hospital. Dr. Nidal Jboor is a doctor of internal medicine and geriatrics working in Michigan. They are co-founders of Doctors Against Genocide.We think: as American people, we are good people. We don't stand for these crimes. We don't accept that any child, any mother, any father, any elderly in the world will be starved to death—no matter where they are, no matter who they are, no matter who is committing this crime. And we are especially appalled to know that all these crimes are being done in our name, with our tax money. They are cutting the funding from our basic programs here, from our neighborhoods, to send more billions to mass slaughter children. So that's why we're going to DC. We're going to talk to the people who are enabling this. We think they already failed their constituents, they failed their country, they are putting our country on the wrong side of history.Dr. Nidal JboorAnyone who did not call this a genocide yet—and did not demand full accountability for genocide, both for the United States and for Israel—is enabling and allowing this crime to continue further.Dr. Nidal JboorWe are committed to having our eyes open whenever and wherever there is a genocide or there are war crimes, crimes against humanity—no matter who commits them. And it's very important for us to stand with the victims, with the community that is suffering, and never take the side or give a platform for the perpetrators.Dr. Karameh KuemmerleOur focus on the situation in Gaza comes from the simple fact that our country is complicit. And because of that, we actually have the moral obligation and the practical obligation to speak up. So it is not because we think that other genocides are not happening or are not important. We actually think every genocide should never happen. It's anti-human to commit genocide. And we always ask our colleagues to come to us to help uplift the voices of the communities of genocide and hopefully we will have more bandwidth to do a lot more. But the situation in Gaza is unique because there is almost a collusion of all these powerful players to complete this genocide in Gaza and basically oppress every resistance to it. There are many things that make what is happening in Gaza unique—for example, the inability to leave, using food as a weapon, having complete siege on the population, having a major superpower supported by another major superpower bombing a population of two million people in a very small area, constantly, nonstop for two years.Dr. Karameh KuemmerleAll professions have their own specialized civic duties…And I want to tell the listeners that the people who are peace-loving all over the world vastly outnumber, vastly outnumber the warmongers and the cruel and vicious interests that have taken advantage of the situation.Ralph NaderMarcus Sims is the owner of Treincarnation, which creates sustainably-harvested lumber and builds custom furniture from trees felled by storms or removed to make way for development.I think there's a lot of support for what I'm doing, but my work is contrasted to the industrial lumber system, which is “chop them down and cut them up,” a lot of it done by huge machines. So it takes a lot more attention and care to do the kind of work that I'm doing. And of course the finances—as you know, finances play a big part in any kind of industry and how they can manage to make money. So I'm certainly making a living, a good living with what I'm doing. I don't know exactly how we can get from the current system into one that was probably used in the past, where the intelligence of human beings is more engaged and we're not slaves to industrial processes.Marcus SimsNews 7/25/25* This week, Israel shelled the Holy Family Church in Gaza. During the last months of his life, Pope Francis was in constant communication with this church and its pastor, Father Gabriel Romanelli, calling them every single night. Three people were killed in this strike and Father Romanelli was injured, as were other congregants. In a speech after the strike, Pope Leo called for an immediate ceasefire and decried the “barbarity of war,” Reuters reports. He added, "I appeal to the international community to observe humanitarian law and respect the obligation to protect civilians as well as the prohibition of collective punishment, of indiscriminate use of force and forced displacement of the population.” According to the National Catholic Reporter, Pope Leo XIV spoke with Palestinian president Mahmood Abbas following this attack and Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu called to “express Israel's regret for what he called an accidental attack.”2. In Belgium, the Hind Rajab Foundation – named for the five-year-old girl in Gaza killed along with six of her family members and the paramedics coming to her rescue – reports, “Belgian federal police have arrested and interrogated two Israeli soldiers credibly accused of war crimes in Gaza. The action came in response to an urgent legal complaint filed by the Hind Rajab Foundation and the Global Legal Action Network (GLAN) earlier this week.” The soldiers, who had come to Belgium to attend the Tomorrowland music festival were, “formally interrogated and released. The Belgian Federal Prosecutor's Office has confirmed that a criminal investigation is now underway.”3. In a shameful, undemocratic move, the Executive Committee of the National Education Association has voted to reject the member-approved resolution to boycott materials promulgated by the ADL, Axios reports. This helps keep the ADL entrenched as the arbiter of what is and is not antisemitism, a charge they have weaponized and used as a cudgel again and again to silence any criticism of the state of Israel.4. In New York, disgraced former Governor Andrew Cuomo continues to campaign in his increasingly long-shot independent bid for Mayor of New York City. Recently, Cuomo held a campaign breakfast attended by 450 at the Hampton Synagogue, where he said, “I would wager that in the primary, more than 50% of the Jewish people voted for Mamdani.” If true, this would be a stunning victory not only for Zohran himself but for the pro-Palestine movement, which has been maligned in bad faith as antisemitic. Cuomo added that many younger Jewish voters are, “pro-Palestinian, and they don't consider it being anti-Israel.” This from the Forward.5. Another intra-ethnic cleavage is emerging among voters in New York City – this time, Italian-Americans. While Mamdani visited Uganda, the country of his birth, anti-Zohran Italians rallied in front of his Assembly district office in Queens. The New York Times reports this protest, “ostensibly led by the Italian American Civil Rights League, a group that took its name from but had no apparent ties to a defunct organization founded by [Mafia boss] Joseph A. Colombo Sr,...until recently, when Mr. Colombo's grandson, Anthony E. Colombo Jr….joined the group's board in May.” As the Times notes, this protest was held in response to a, “recently resurfaced social media photo from 2020 showing Mr. Mamdani giving the middle finger to a Columbus statue.” However, a large group of pro-Zohran Italian-American counterprotestors rallied across the street, carrying signs that read “Paisans for Zohran!” and “You Eat Jar Sauce!”6. In Minneapolis, many are drawing parallels between Mamdani and insurgent Democratic Socialist candidate Omar Fateh, who won the Minnesota Democratic-Farmer-Labor Party's endorsement for the mayoralty over incumbent Jacob Frey. Fateh, a state senator, won “at least 60% of the Minneapolis DFL delegate vote Saturday…in the party's first endorsement of a mayoral candidate in 16 years,” per the Minnesota Star Tribune. This endorsement gives Fateh a major boost in his campaign and indicates that the Zohran phenomenon is not confined to New York City.7. Last week, Paramount – one of the largest media conglomerates and parent company of CBS – canceled The Late Show with Stephen Colbert less than 48 hours after Colbert called CBS News's $16 million settlement with Trump a, “big fat bribe,” implying it would help curry favor with the administration regarding the proposed merger between Paramount and Skydance. Incensed, the Writers Guild of America East issued a statement calling on New York State Attorney General Letitia James, to, “launch an investigation into potential wrongdoing at Paramount…[and for]…our elected leaders to hold those responsible to account…demand answers about why this beloved program was canceled and to assure the public that Colbert and his writers were not censored due to their views or the whims of the President.”8. At the same time, CNN reports Paramount's “owner-in-waiting,” David Ellison is in talks to acquire Bari Weiss's publication The Free Press. According to the Financial Times, Weiss is seeking over $200 million for the purchase. However, this goes further than a potential acquisition. Puck reports that if brought in, Weiss would serve as an “ideological guide” for CBS News. This, paired with the recent piece in the Hollywood Reporter stating that Skydance “promised to eliminate all diversity, equity and inclusion initiatives,” at Paramount, gives a fuller picture of the “anti-woke” direction CBS would take under the new leadership. With news Thursday that federal regulators have approved the merger, it seems fair to conclude that these moves mollified the president.9. Turning to Latin America, AP reports the U.S., Venezuela and El Salvador have successfully concluded an intricate tripartite prisoner exchange. This deal includes the release of 10 Americans jailed in Venezuela and 252 Venezuelans held in El Salvador's notorious and dystopian CECOT prison complex. The freed Americans include some who were accused of participating in a U.S.-backed coup attempt against Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro in 2024 and one who was convicted of a triple homicide in Madrid, according to EL PAÍS. All parties seem satisfied with this agreement, with Secretary of State Marco Rubio saying “Every wrongfully detained American in Venezuela is now free and back in our homeland,” while President Maduro pronounced the occasion “a day of blessings and good news…the perfect day for Venezuela.”10. Finally, prominent British tech writer Ed Zitron is out with “The Hater's Guide To The AI Bubble.” In this piece, Zitron – a noted critic of AI writ large – details tech companies' expenditures on AI as compared to the revenues, and the numbers are stark. Microsoft has reaped $13 billion, with $10 billion from OpenAI, sold at “a heavily discounted rate that essentially only covers costs for operating the servers," while expenditures total $80 billion. Amazon AI revenues In 2025 amount to $5 billion, while capital expenditures total $105 billion. Google AI revenue stands at $7.7 billion, with capital expenditures standing at $75 billion. Meta AI revenue in 2025 is a paltry $2-3 billion. Their capital expenditures: $72 billion. Perhaps most deliciously, while Tesla has spent around $11 billion on AI in 2025, the company “Does Not Appear To Make Money From Generative AI” at all. Hopefully these numbers serve as a wakeup call for companies to stop dumping money down the AI drain, since clearly the immense adverse impact on the environment is not dissuading them.This has been Francesco DeSantis, with In Case You Haven't Heard.

Has Haiti passed the point of no return? Nearly 5,000 people have been killed in gang violence since last October, according to the U.N. Gangs control an estimated 90 percent of the capital, Port-au-Prince, as a Kenya-led security mission remains undermanned and outgunned. Government services are collapsing, and people are desperate for food. The country hasn't had a president since 2021. There is little appetite among Western nations for a major intervention to restore order in a country where the U.S. once invaded with relative frequency. Those days are history. In this episode, retired diplomat Keith Mines explains why Haiti appears to be trapped in an eternal crisis. Keith Mines recently retired after a 38-year career in public service, spanning the U.S. Army Special Forces, the Foreign Service, and as Vice President for Latin America at the U.S. Institute of Peace, where he managed programs in Haiti and chaired the Haiti Working Group in Washington. He served in Haiti from 1995-1997. He is the author of Why Nation-Building Matters: Political Consolidation, Building Security Forces, and Economic Development in Failed and Fragile States.

On this episode of The Legal Impact, Professor Stanley Kowalski recalls President John F. Kennedy's South American initiative called the "Alliance for Progress," unveiled sixty years ago. Kowalski says it's time to revive this effort, but updated for our times: promoting a stable, prosperous Latin America through technology transfer and intellectual property.   

In this episode of the All Things Sustainable podcast, we're on the ground in Mexico City, Mexico, to explore how companies in Latin America are embedding sustainability into their business strategies amid shifting market dynamics and new regulations.   We speak with Mauricio Bonilla, Executive Director of UN Global Compact Mexico, on the sidelines of the organization's annual Business Meeting for Sustainability, which took place in June.   The UN Global Compact is a voluntary corporate sustainability initiative involving more than 20,000 companies across 160 countries. Participating companies have committed to operate responsibly in line with sustainability principles on human rights, labor, environment and anti-corruption, and to support the UN's 17 Sustainable Development Goals.   UN Global Compact Mexico is a country-level network of the UN Global Compact, and Mauricio explains how the network is working with companies of all sizes to drive sustainable business practices.   We also sit down with three UN Global Compact Mexico participant companies:  -Alejandro De Keijser, Director of Energy and Sustainability at Mexico-based Grupo DEACERO, a steel manufacturer with global operations.   -Alfonso Martínez, CEO of Industrias Marves, a Mexico-based textile recycling company.  -Tania Rabasa Kovacs, Orbia's Chief Sustainability Officer, Vice President of Corporate Affairs and President of Orbia Mexico. Mexico-based Orbia operates in more than 50 countries and focuses on several business lines.  Tania outlines challenges companies in Latin America face. This includes balancing the need for positive financial returns in the short term with longer term sustainability objectives; navigating regulatory uncertainty; adapting to the physical impacts of climate change; and ensuring local communities and economies benefit from the company's operations.    At the same time, she says: "Nobody is really giving up because the cost of inaction is much higher than that of the transformation."   Read the latest edition of the International Sustainability Standards Board (ISSB) adoption tracker from S&P Global Sustainable1 here.    Learn more about S&P Global Sustainable1's Physical Climate Risk data.  This piece was published by S&P Global Sustainable1 and not by S&P Global Ratings, which is a separately managed division of S&P Global.   Copyright ©2025 by S&P Global    DISCLAIMER    By accessing this Podcast, I acknowledge that S&P GLOBAL makes no warranty, guarantee, or representation as to the accuracy or sufficiency of the information featured in this Podcast.

Allan Rhodes is Chief People Officer at teal-inspired insurance broker Konsileo. He shares what he's learned over the last three years about helping to design a self-managing organisation, including how to onboard people into a totally new way of working.

He is co-author with Jason Jones of “God, Guns, & the Government.”   John Zmirak's new book: No Second Amendment, No First  by John Zmirak  Available March 19, 2024 Today's Left endlessly preaches the evils of “gun violence." It is a message increasingly echoed from the nation's pulpits, presented as common-sense decency and virtue. Calls for “radical non-violence” are routinely endowed with the imprimatur of religious doctrine.   But what if such teachings were misguided, even damaging? What if the potential of a citizenry to exercise force against violent criminals and tyrannical governments is not just compatible with church teaching, but flows from the very heart of Biblical faith and reason? What if the freedoms we treasure are intimately tied to the power to resist violent coercion?  This is the long-overdue case John Zmirak makes with stunning clarity and conviction in No Second Amendment, No First. A Yale-educated journalist and former college professor, Zmirak shows how the right of self-defense against authoritarian government was affirmed in both the Old and New Testaments, is implied in Natural Law, and has been part of Church tradition over the centuries.   --------------------------------------------------------------------  --------------------------------------------------------------------  Check out our ACU Patreon page: https://www.patreon.com/ACUPodcast   HELP ACU SPREAD THE WORD!  Please go to Apple Podcasts and give ACU a 5 star rating.

My guest on the show today is Greg Barnhisel, English professor at Duquesne University and author of the recent book Code Name Puritan: Norman Holmes Pearson at the Nexus of Poetry, Espionage, and American Power.Our conversation is in one sense about the subject of his book, Norman Holmes Pearson, who was a pioneer of both the American intelligence establishment and the modern study of the humanities. But it's also about the death of what Pearson represented, or embodied, which is the American cold war establishment, or—to abstract even further— the death of any unitary establishment whatsoever possessing the power to author a consensus or narrative to which most of the nation would defer. It's also about one of my abiding preoccupations, as a son of New England, with the old yankee WASP elite culture. Yale men. Taste-makers. Ghostwriters of national narratives. The kind of people who knew how to quote Virgil, chair a foundation meeting, and quietly stage a coup in Latin America. We talk about whether this specific kind of establishment power he represented has faded entirely or morphed into something else (some version of what we sometimes call the professional managerial class.Hope you enjoy.Peace This is a public episode.

Tommy and Ben respond to Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard's baseless accusation that the Obama administration masterminded a “treasonous conspiracy” against Trump and Trump's subsequent call to arrest Barack Obama. They also talk about the President's ongoing beef with Brazil and how it's backfiring, the exile of a leading human rights organization from El Salvador, the deal to release prisoners from El Salvador and Venezuela, and the blatant hypocrisy behind this administration's Latin America policy. Also discussed: the latest horrors from Gaza and the statement from 28 countries condemning the humanitarian crisis there, Benjamin Netanyahu's bizarre foray into YouTube, the daylight between Trump and Bibi on Syria, the massive fallout from a British security leak, the rise of anti-establishment nationalist politics in Japan, the French Prime Minister's deeply unpopular proposal to strip France of two public holidays, and some tidbits out of North Korea. Then, Ben speaks with Nerima Wako-Ojiwa, political analyst and the Executive Director of Siasa Place, about the ongoing protests in Kenya, the government's brutal response, and the future of Kenyan politics.    

Eating disorders are complicated illnesses that skyrocketed among teenagers during the COVID-19 pandemic. Pediatrician Eva Trujillo says they "literally rewire the brain," decrease brain size, and make it harder to concentrate and to regulate emotions. Malnutrition can slow the metabolism, impact bone density and even lead to cardiac arrest. But Eva says, with the right treatment, people can also recover fully. She's the president of the International Association of Eating Disorder Professionals and co-founder of Comenzar de Nuevo, a leading treatment facility in Latin America. Today on the show, host Emily Kwong talks about the physical and mental impacts of eating disorders with Dr. Trujillo and Moorea Friedmann, a teen mental health advocate and host of the podcast Balancing Act. Plus, how to recover in a world steeped in diet culture. Want us to cover more mental health topics? Tell us by emailing shortwave@npr.org! We'd love to know what you want to hear from us!

Countries around the world, including the US, are rushing to secure critical mineral supply chains. As these essential resources, which are key to building clean energy infrastructure, become a major focus in policy and trade discussions, Latin America sits at the center of the competition. It is home to vast lithium reserves in the Lithium Triangle and it holds nearly 40% of the world's copper deposits.  But recent price volatility and geopolitical concerns have created new challenges. Early this month, President Trump announced a 50% tariff on copper imports, further jolting markets as copper prices jumped over 13% in a single day.  So how are countries in the region navigating these new trade and market realities? Can Latin America build mineral supply chains that are more resilient to geopolitical shocks? And how are these governments responding to the environmental and economic concerns of Indigenous and local communities? This week, Jason speaks with Juan Carlos Jobet, Tom Moerenhout, and Diego Rivera Rivota about Latin America's critical mineral supply chain. Juan Carlos is the dean of the School of Business and Economics at Adolfo Ibáñez University and Chile's former Minister of Energy and Mining and a former distinguished visiting fellow at the Center on Global Energy Policy.  Tom leads the Critical Materials Initiative at the Center on Global Energy Policy and is a professor at Columbia University's School of International and Public Affairs.  Diego is a senior research associate at the Center on Global Energy Policy. Credits: Hosted by Jason Bordoff and Bill Loveless. Produced by Mary Catherine O'Connor, Caroline Pitman, and Kyu Lee. Engineering by Gregory Vilfranc.

Here, with the help of a team of experts from the CSIS think-tank, Battle Board looks at why China wants to take control of the self-ruling island in the first place, how such a conflict might play out if it ever started, and the possible ramifications - from the threat of World War Three, to a nuclear Armageddon. #china #taiwan #wargaming #invasion #battleboard Daily Mail Website: https://www.dailymail.co.uk Daily Mail Facebook:   / dailymail   Daily Mail IG:   / dailymail   Daily Mail Snap:   / daily-ma.  .
