What does conservatism mean in an age of populism, executive power, and institutional distrust? Yuval Levin is a political theorist, the director of Social, Cultural, and Constitutional Studies at the American Enterprise Institute, and the author of American Covenant: How the Constitution Unified Our Nation—and Could Again. Today he argues that the deepest divide in American politics is no longer left versus right, but populism versus institutions. Levin traces the shift within the conservative movement from an emphasis on morality and constitutional limits to a more confrontational style of politics, and he explains why durable reform requires coalition building, legislation, and respect for procedure. He reflects on his time in the Bush administration, the limits of presidential governance, the fight over universities, the coming politics of AI, and why the Constitution was designed to hold a divided nation together.

A council cost cutting decision has resulted in a local attraction. When the Horowhenua District Council stopped mowing residential berms to save money, it made Levin resident Louise McCarthy very grumpy. She refused to cut the grass herself and declined neighbours offers to trim it too, until she decided to transform the berm into an urban meadow full of wildflowers. Louise McCarthy spoke to Lisa Owen.

Jess Levin joins us in the living room for a roller coaster of a night episode. This is the most 90s the show has ever felt. Jess is an expert in fine art but also has a deep college footall iq. Chris won't stop bringing up Sipowicz from NYPD Blue. Also, he was worried he gets too "jaw-y" so decided the best way to fix that is with a genuinely unsettling face to camera intro video.

Hiring feels harder than ever. Teams are stretched thin. Turnover is constant. So, what actually works right now? In this follow-up episode of the Everyday Oral Surgery Podcast, Dr. Grant Stucki continues his conversation with returning guest Dr. Roger Levin, founder and CEO of Levin Group. Building on their previous discussion about the office manager as chief operating officer (COO), this episode focuses on how to build the right team around that role. Dr. Levin breaks down why the office manager must take full ownership of recruiting, onboarding, and team development, and why surgeons need to delegate without disengaging. He outlines practical steps for attracting candidates, screening effectively, conducting stronger interviews, and onboarding new hires in ways that promote retention and engagement. The discussion also explores red flags to watch out for, the value of maturity and reliability, and how systems, culture, and leadership determine whether new team members succeed or fail. This episode offers clear, experience-based insights for oral surgeons and office managers looking to improve their practice. Listen in to rethink how you hire, train, and support the people who keep your practice running!Key Points From This Episode:The office manager as the chief operating officer (COO) for all non-clinical practice functions.Why building and managing the team is a central office manager responsibility.The ongoing staffing crisis in dentistry and its impact on oral surgery practices.Recruiting as a structured process owned by the office manager, not the surgeon.The importance of clear, updated job descriptions before hiring begins.Practical recruiting channels, from online postings and team referrals to internal promotion.Telephone screening to save time and qualify candidates early.The importance of checking references before the live interview.Best practices for in-office interviews in a competitive labor market.Using longevity bonuses to reduce costly staff turnover and reward retention.Red flags in interviews, including punctuality and communication skills.Setting clear goals so team members understand how success is measured.Assigning a “big sister” to support and integrate new hires.Regular check-ins to support onboarding without formal performance reviews.The doctor's role in supporting hires while still delegating management.Links Mentioned in Today's Episode:Dr. Roger Levin — https://www.linkedin.com/in/roger-levin-69ab744/ Levin Group — https://levingroup.com/Office Manager Practice Mastery Program — https://levingroup.com/office-manager-practice-mastery-program/Episode 313 — https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/10-power-tips-for-multi-office-practice-growth-with-dr/id1535284898?i=1000717140271Episode 343 — Everyday Oral Surgery Website — https://www.everydayoralsurgery.com/ Everyday Oral Surgery on Instagram — https://www.instagram.com/everydayoralsurgery/ Everyday Oral Surgery on Facebook — https://www.facebook.com/EverydayOralSurgery/Dr. Grant Stucki Email — grantstucki@gmail.comDr. Grant Stucki Phone — 720-441-6059

Mike Levin, D-CA-49, has been urging the federal government to establish a safe and long-term management program for spent nuclear fuel, of which 3.5 million pounds are stored at the San Onofre Nuclear Generating Station.Levin joined Midday Edition last Thursday to discuss the department's call for input, whether the initiative will accelerate the removal of nuclear waste at San Onofre and the $100 million he secured for this issue.Guest:Mike Levin, U.S. Representative for California's 49th District

Could a more formal COO-level approach to office management be the catalyst for sustainable growth in your practice? Today on Everyday Oral Surgery, Dr. Stucki is joined again by Dr. Roger Levin, CEO of Levin Group. Dr. Levin argues that the office manager should adopt the responsibilities of a Chief Operating Officer (COO), moving beyond merely putting out fires to proactively creating systems and checklists that ensure smooth and efficient practice operations. He suggests that a great office manager grants surgeons freedom to concentrate solely on clinical excellence, patient relations, and referring doctor relationships. Ultimately leading to a significant boost in practice income and overall satisfaction. Tune in to the first episode in an upcoming series on the office manager. Today, Dr. Stucki and Dr. Levin delve into the reality of the office manager, break down the job description of the COO, outline the job responsibilities, and discuss the difficulty of managing both up and down. They talk about the responsibility of implementing systems to improve customer service, studying referral patterns, and dealing with all regulatory responsibilities. To hear more, don't miss out on yet another impactful episode with Dr. Roger Levin. Key Points From This Episode:An introduction to today's guest and topic: a mini series on the office manager.Understanding the reality of office managers. Three things surgeons should be doing: clinical excellence, patient relations, and referring doctor relations.They look at the landscape of the dentistry business and why office managers may be essential.Dr. Levin breaks down the job description of an office manager: the COO. Why a solid office manager has the freedom to build a great team. Outlining the office manager's job responsibilities and identifying the optimal balance.The hard part of the role of an office manager: managing up and down.Implementing and creating systems to improve customer service as an office manager. Studying referral patterns of referring doctors. Dealing with regulations and making sure all regulatory activities take place properly. The only caveat to today's discussion. Links Mentioned in Today's Episode:Dr. Roger Levin — https://www.linkedin.com/in/roger-levin-69ab744/ Dr. Roger Levin Email — rlevin@levingroup.com Levin Group — https://levingroup.com/ Office Manager Practice Mastery Program — ‘Performance reviews' — https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/16060478/ Everyday Oral Surgery Website — https://www.everydayoralsurgery.com/ Everyday Oral Surgery on Instagram — https://www.instagram.com/everydayoralsurgery/ Everyday Oral Surgery on Facebook — https://www.facebook.com/EverydayOralSurgery/Dr. Grant Stucki Email — grantstucki@gmail.comDr. Grant Stucki Phone — 720-441-6059

In this episode, we discuss the problems associated with vague concepts in psychological science. We talk about the jingle-jangle fallacy, the trade-off between broad concepts and more precise concepts, if we should generate databases of conceptual definitions, and how the reward structures can get in the way of specifying concepts clearly.   Aikins, H.

In this deep and wide-ranging conversation, we sit down with John-Clark Levin — researcher, author, and thought leader at the cutting edge of artificial intelligence — to explore the hopes and hazards of the technological era we now inhabit.As research lead for Kurzweil Technologies under futurist Ray Kurzweil, Levin conducts long-term AI foresight and has spoken widely about artificial superintelligence and its implications for society, policy, and human flourishing. We begin by tracing his journey from growing up in Ojai, the book that changed everything for him (Kurzweil's "The Rise of Spiritual Machines" to some of the world's most consequential debates about AI. Along the way, Levin shares how his early interests evolved into a professional focus on the future of intelligence and human-machine symbiosis.A major thread of our discussion centers on Levin's work engaging the Vatican on artificial intelligence — part of a broader effort to ensure that leading global institutions take seriously the ethical, spiritual, and existential questions posed by AI's rapid advance. He describes organizing experts and advocates around what some have dubbed the “AI Avengers,” working to bring the possibility and risks of artificial general intelligence (AGI) into high-level ecclesiastical consideration and eventual guidance. From there we delve into pressing contemporary concerns: the rise of misinformation and disinformation in public life, the risk landscape sometimes referred to as the coming “Slop-acolypse,” and how societies might more effectively marshal truth and trust as AI reshapes information ecosystems.Alongside these serious themes, we trade stories about less expected moments — including Levin's Jeopardy! experience, and the intersecting paths of competition, curiosity, and narrative in his life. The host also reflects on his own Jeopardy! memories in light of Levin's appearance, sparking a candid exchange about learning, memory, and what it means to think like a human — or like a machine designed to mimic human cognition.We did not talk about Japanese names for salt, Simon Bolivar or Greenland annexation.This episode is an engaging, thought-provoking journey through the contours of our strange, accelerating age — from Silicon Valley to the Vatican and from the personal to the planetary. Whether you're deeply invested in AI futures or just curious about the forces reshaping our world, this discussion with John-Clark Levin offers rare insight from one of the field's most provocative voices.You can check out John-Clark's twitter account at https://x.com/JohnClarkLevin, on Instagram at https://www.instagram.com/johnclarklevin/

Tucker Carlson has ignited a fierce public clash with conservative commentator Mark Levin over U.S. policy toward Iran. Responsible Statecraft reports that Carlson posted a scathing ten-paragraph essay on X this week, accusing Levin of lobbying the White House for regime change and war after meeting with Trump officials. Carlson dismissed claims of Iran being weeks from a nuclear bomb as lies repeated since the 1990s, warning that demands for zero uranium enrichment would force a conflict many Americans would die in. The post, now over 5.4 million views strong, drew support from figures like Democratic Congressman Ro Khanna, former Rep. Matt Gaetz, Quincy Institute's Trita Parsi, and American Conservative editor Andrew Day, who all echoed Carlson's antiwar stance amid fragile Trump administration talks.His media ventures continue to thrive, with CNN Business noting that venture capital firm 1789 Capital, where Donald Trump Jr. recently partnered, invests in Carlson's company alongside other conservative projects. This ties into broader scrutiny, as Democratic senators like Elizabeth Warren raised alarms over Pentagon contracts and loans worth hundreds of millions to 1789-backed firms, questioning potential conflicts.A new book, Hated by All the Right People by New Yorker writer Jason Zengerle, released January 27, traces Carlson's evolution from mainstream conservative to a dominant right-wing voice, highlighting his post-Fox shift further right. Fresh Air and Jewish Insider also spotlighted the book for showing how Trump's rise revived and radicalized his career.Carlson recently interviewed economist Peter Schiff, arguing Bitcoin or Tether could replace the weakening U.S. dollar as the global reserve currency, though Schiff called crypto a complete waste beyond speculation. He's also slated to speak at Saudi Arabia's Real Estate Future Forum alongside Hillary Clinton and John Kerry. Meanwhile, Bishop Barron publicly corrected Carlson's errant views on Catholicism in a January 27 workshop video.These moves underscore Carlson's growing sway in steering MAGA away from neoconservative wars while fueling debates on his influence in Trump's world.Thanks for listening to the Tucker Carlson News Tracker podcast—please subscribe for more updates.

What actually works in anti-aging skincare—and what's just expensive hype? In this episode, Dr. Anthony Youn is joined by board-certified dermatologist Dr. Emily Levin to break down and ratesome of the most talked-about anti-aging ingredients on the market. From retinoids and niacinamide to ceramides, antioxidants, acids, and hyaluronic acid, they explain what these ingredients really do for your skin, who they're best for, and where people often get misled. The conversation goes far beyond skincare labels. Dr. Youn and Dr. Levin also unpack buzzy wellness and cosmetic trends—like blood filtration therapies, the controversial “Mar-a-Lago face,” emerging hair-loss drugs, and extreme body contouring with fillers—separating science from social-media spectacle. With a refreshingly honest, patient-first perspective, this episode cuts through the noise to help you make smarter, safer decisions about your skin and your body—without fear-mongering, false promises, or chasing the latest fad.

On Friday's Mark Levin Show, ICE is the frontline protector against anarchy and civil society's destruction. The Democratic Party hates and seeks to destroy America by altering demographics through massive illegal immigration, including tens of millions of aliens and betting the Supreme Court won't properly rule on birthright citizenship. Democrats view immigration as a revolution, importing ideologies incompatible with Americanism, the Constitution, and rule of law, refusing assimilation in favor of conquest. Sanctuary cities and states shield these revolutionaries, creating segregated enclaves akin to a new form of segregation pushed by Democrats frustrated that the current citizenry won't align with their agenda, ultimately threatening all Americans. Also, Iran is one, big concentration camp. The Iranian regime is not hanging people because they are shooting them. Summary executions are, in fact, going on right now.  They are wiping out a generation of young people because they dared to want what young people in our country want -- freedom.  The lights are out and communications still cut off for a reason.  So, the rest of us cannot witness the genocide and atrocities that are taking place.  Hence, the Western media are losing interest and focus, as are a growing number of politicians.  But enough information is leaking out proving that the Iranian regime is an ongoing killing machine and the country is a killing field. Later, Mark Meckler from Convention of States, calls in and confirms that Kansas is on the precipice of becoming the 20th state to pass it. They need 34 states total, leaving 14 more. He also discusses the antisemitism from former friends like Tucker Carlson, Candace Owens, and Nick Fuentes. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

We are one year into Trump's second term. And it feels like so much has happened – more than the human mind, or the country, can absorb. But how much has Trump really accomplished? What policies have changed the country in a way that will last?My guest Yuval Levin is one of the smartest thinkers on the right, and his verdict is: not that much. “There's an important story to tell about the absence of action in the past year, too,” he tells me.Levin is the director of social, cultural and constitutional studies at the American Enterprise Institute, the founder and editor of National Affairs and the author of several books on policy and political theory, including “American Covenant: How the Constitution Unified Our Nation – and Could Again.”Mentioned:ChartsBuckley by Sam TanenhausBook Recommendations:Insecure Majorities by Frances E.

Ari Paparo and Eric Franchi are joined by Erez Levin, a former Googler who focuses on media and inventory quality. They dig into what “quality” really means in programmatic advertising, why short-term outcomes can be misleading, and how incentive structures have pushed spend toward lower-value impressions. Takeaways Quality is best understood through effectiveness, but most measurement overweights short-term signals.  “Not all impressions are created equal.”  quality varies by context, format, and goal.  Video definition loopholes led to premium pricing for lower-attention formats and contributed to market confusion.  MFA, SPO, and curation are connected symptoms of incentives that reward cheap scale and vanity metrics.  Verification helps, but quality needs to be addressed across the full media workflow, including experimentation and MMM.  Agentic buying could either improve quality controls or make it easier to optimize only to what's measurable in the near term.  Publisher traffic declines reinforce the difference between commoditized content and differentiated journalism or creator-led media.  Chapters 00:00 Welcome and introduction to media quality 01:29 Marketecture Live updates and announcements 04:18 Erez Levin on why advertising quality matters 06:00 Defining quality vs outcomes in digital advertising 08:30 Brand impact, long-term effectiveness, and mental availability 09:43 Lessons from Google AdX and DV360 10:58 Video misclassification, IAB definitions, and market fallout 14:03 Outstream video, pricing, and mobile gaming use cases 17:00 MFA, SPO, and the real causes of inventory quality problems 19:03 Tools, verification, and the role of measurement frameworks 20:30 Agentic buying, AI, and control over media quality 22:41 AI news: Google UCP, AdCP, and agentic commerce 30:13 Apple, Siri, and Google Gemini's implications 34:16 Publisher traffic decline and the future of content 36:23 Agentic buying vs RTB and portfolio theory 42:34 AppleCart funding and influence-based advertising 45:04 Liftoff IPO filing and the mobile ad tech landscape 47:57 Google antitrust lawsuits update 49:03 Closing thoughts and wrap-up Learn more about your ad choices.

I've come to the conclusion that Sweller's Cognitive Load Theory is the single most important thing for teachers to know – Dylan Wiliam   On this episode Lars speaks with John Sweller, professor emeritus at University of New South Wales in Australia, about the field of cognitive load theory, a research field in educational psychology that John has been developing since the early eighties.  We talk about the cognitive architecture, how working memory and long term memory interact, and how this interaction and its limits make out the foundational insight that is explored in cognitive load theory; how our cognition is shaped by evolution, how David Geary's theory about biologically primary and secondary skills helped John put cognitive load theory into a bigger picture; some of the main effect that have been identified, like element interaction effect, worked examples, redundancy, split attention, and much more.    Recommended books and articles Ashman, G.

As many personal injury attorneys look to grow nationally, many consider building a national practice. However, fierce competition with established law firms in saturated markets makes this a nearly impossible task. However, it can be done with the right angle, vision, and leadership. In today's episode, Steve Levin of Levin & Perconti joins us to share lessons learned in his development of a personal injury practice that nationally tries both nursing home abuse and birth injury cases. Key takeaways: The importance of niching down to compete in saturated markets Knowing your core values and establishing your law firm's corporate culture Building your network and your knowledge as pillars to growth Find Attorney Steve Levin online here: https://www.levinperconti.com/attorneys/steven-m-levin/.

FAN MAIL--We would love YOUR feedback--Send us a Text MessageA nighttime city goes dark, rotors whisper over rooftops, and a regime built on crime loses its center of gravity. That image anchors a frank, fast-moving breakdown of Operation Absolute Resolve—the surgical extraction that removed Nicolás Maduro without a single U.S. casualty or aircraft loss. We open with first principles from Liberty and Tyranny, asking what prudence requires when unalienable rights collide with the limits of American responsibility, then test those principles against a real-world mission that felt more like law enforcement than nation building.I walk through the skeptical reflex shaped by Iraq and Afghanistan and explain why the facts on the ground shifted my view. Maduro's Venezuela wasn't acting like a sovereign state; it was operating as a transnational cartel hub funneling cocaine and fentanyl into American streets while inviting Russia, China, and Iran into our hemisphere. That changes the moral math. We draw the line from Noriega's Panama to Caracas, show how sovereignty erodes when a ruler weaponizes the state for organized crime, and clarify why a narrow objective—remove the cartel boss in a presidential sash—served both justice and deterrence.From there, we unpack the mission profile: more than 150 aircraft, coordinated cyber effects, lights out over Caracas, target hit at 2:01 a.m., and a clean exfil. No occupation. No open-ended promises. Just a defined aim met with precision and restraint. The takeaway is not triumphalism but discipline: peace through strength means clarity of purpose, proportional means, and a hard stop once the job is done. We close with practical guardrails to prevent mission creep and a look ahead to part two on Venezuela's next chapter and regional stability. If this analysis resonates, follow the show, share it with a friend who cares about strategy and ethics, and leave a review to help more listeners find the conversation.Key Points from the Episode:We weigh the moral and strategic case for removing Nicolás Maduro through a surgical extraction that avoided quagmire while targeting a criminal enterprise masquerading as a state. We connect prudence, sovereignty, and the Monroe Doctrine to a Reagan-style peace through strength.• Levin's framework on rights, limits, and prudence• Skepticism after Iraq and Afghanistan• Operation Absolute Resolve planning and execution• Maduro as narco-terrorist and illegitimate ruler• Noriega precedent and sovereignty boundaries• Monroe Doctrine and great-power presence• Objectives achieved without occupation• Guardrails to prevent mission creepJoin us later in the week at TeammojoAcademy.com for part 2 Be sure to check out our show page at teammojoacademy.com, where we have everything we discussed in this podcast as well as other great resourcesOther resources: Want to leave a review?

He also unpacks the escalating protests in Iran and why the situation is becoming increasingly dangerous.Josh is then joined by Yuval Levin, Editor of National Affairs, for a deep dive into the state of healthcare reform in America—how we got here, why Republicans have struggled to make political gains on the issue, and why Democrats continue to expand spending without meaningful structural change.

Indivisible's Ezra Levin and Hungarian organizer László Upor share creative, community-driven tactics — from joyful protests to bold campus actions — that pushed back against autocratic agendas. Their message: you have more power than you think.Make a tax deductible YEAR END DONATION and become a member go to LauraFlanders.org/donate. This show is made possible by you! Description: If you care about resisting autocracy and building democracy, the U.S. has much to learn from Hungary. While Donald Trump rails against Europe, he and Hungary's strongman leader, Viktor Orbán, have praised each other for years. Anti-democratic, anti-immigrant, anti-woman, anti-queer — Orbán and Trump came to power on parallel tracks with similar values. In their first interview together, Ezra Levin, the co-founder of Indivisible (the group behind No Kings!) and László Upor, a leader in one of Hungary's most creative and visible resistance efforts, share their experiences of resisting authoritarianism. Upor is former Vice Rector and Acting Rector of the University of Theatre and Film Arts in Budapest — the one university that fought back when the Orbán administration began taking control of Hungary's universities. Levin is the co-founder and co-executive director of Indivisible, the grassroots movement behind such protests as the historic Hands Off and No Kings rallies. From the principles of their organizing to frog suits and caution tape, today's episode is a masterclass in creative resistance. Plus a commentary from Laura.“Our enemy in this isn't Trump, it's not the Republicans. It's not the broader regime. Our enemy is this sense of cynicism or fatalism or nihilism . . . I do think a core principle in our communication philosophy is convincing people, you have power, you just gotta use it. The best way to use it is in concert with a lot of other people in your community.” - Ezra Levin“You have to laugh at them, not be afraid of them . . . They don't understand mirth. They don't understand the derision. They think they are invincible. And when we don't give in, they don't understand what's going on.” - László UpperGuests:• Ezra Levin: Co-Founder & Co-Executive Director, Indivisible• László Upor: Former Vice Rector & Acting Rector, University of Theatre and Film Arts (SzFE), Budapest, HungaryListen to the full uncut conversation in this podcast feed.Watch the episode released on YouTube, PBS World Channel, and on over 300 public stations across the country (check your listings, or search here via zipcode).
