The Impact of AI Voice Technology on Customer Engagement  Shep interviews Alex Levin, CEO and co-founder of Regal. He talks about how AI-driven voice technology is transforming customer experience by making brand interactions more personal, efficient, and human-like.  This episode of Amazing Business Radio with Shep Hyken answers the following questions and more:    How is AI revolutionizing voice-based customer interactions in modern contact centers?  What are the advantages of using voice over text for customer engagement?  How can AI-powered agents improve customer satisfaction and retention rates?  What role does personalization play in building a strong customer experience?  How are businesses leveraging new technology to proactively reach out to customers?  Top Takeaways:    AI-powered voice technology is creating customer experiences so lifelike that they're almost indistinguishable from human agents. This is not created to deceive customers but to provide great experiences, and with the transparency that should come with interacting with AI.  Despite all the advancements in texting, chatbots, and automation, the majority of customers still prefer to interact by voice, especially when they have complex or urgent issues. Since humans often think and speak faster than they type, voice interactions allow customers to have richer, more nuanced interactions with the brands they do business with.  AI-powered agents can remember every detail of a customer's history and use that to solve real-time problems. They can predict needs and personalize conversations at scale. This level of personalization is reminiscent of the “good old days” when support and sales agents knew their customers personally, but at a scale that wasn't possible before.  Building trust with AI often happens within the first ten seconds. Transparency about when customers are interacting with AI is important. The most successful AI experiences are those that match or exceed human-level service, especially in building trust and rapport.  The cost for businesses using AI for customer support has drastically decreased. This opens new opportunities for businesses to reach customers they were unable to serve before. More than just a cost-cutting tool, AI is a tool for growth.  Current AI agents can independently handle about 97% of customer interactions across complex industries such as banking, insurance, and healthcare. Customers are already responding to positive AI experiences by becoming more loyal and trusting of those brands.   Plus, Shep and Alex discuss how brands that are early adopters of advanced AI voice agents will set a new benchmark for customer expectations. Tune in!  Quote:   "The easiest way to engage with a brand when you're in the moment of need is voice. You talk faster than you type. When you have an issue, like your credit card being used incorrectly or a missed delivery, you want to talk on the phone, not type it out.”  About:    Alex Levin is the CEO and co-founder of Regal, a company that helps enterprise brands reconnect with customers through AI-driven voice and text experiences. His approach centers on building trust and improving outreach, enabling brands to drive revenue through more timely, personal engagement.  Shep Hyken is a customer service and experience expert, New York Times bestselling author, award-winning keynote speaker, and host of Amazing Business Radio.    Learn more about your ad choices.

Synopsis:  If you're worried about authoritarianism, this episode reminds you that people-powered resistance still wins. 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.

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 Upper Guests: • Ezra Levin: Co-Founder & Co-Executive Director, Indivisible • László Upor: Former Vice Rector & Acting Rector, University of Theatre and Film Arts (SzFE), Budapest, Hungary   Watch the episode released on YouTube; PBS World Channel Sundays 11:30am ET, and on over 300 public stations across the country (check your listings, or search here via zipcode).

What if cancer isn't just a disease… but a split personality inside your own body? In this episode of Mayim Bialik's Breakdown, Dr. Michael Levin (Professor of Biology at Tufts University, Director of the Allen Discovery Center) drops paradigm-shattering insights that could redefine medicine, consciousness, intelligence...and what it even means to be human. He explains why he calls cancer “dissociative identity disorder of the body” — a breakdown in the body's bioelectrical network — and how this could open the door to treating cancer without drugs or chemotherapy, why “mind blindness” prevents us from recognizing nonhuman intelligence, and how “human” might be defined in a future of tech implants and biological augmentation. Dr. Levin also breaks down: - What does a body think about before there is a brain? - Can we regrow limbs in our lifetime? - Are we closer than we think to communicating with our organs via an app? - What flatworms reveal about how trauma and memory are imprinted in tissue, and whether we might one day overwrite trauma itself - What nonhuman intelligence could actually look like - How you might play tic-tac-toe with an alien - Real dangers of anthropomorphizing AI Dr. Levin also tackles some of humanity's biggest existential questions: - Are we defining consciousness all wrong? - How can ancient traditions and modern biophysics coexist? - Why compassion may be the most advanced technology we have From developmental biophysics to computer science to cognitive science, this conversation explores how intelligence may be woven into life itself — from cells to organs to entire bodies. If what he's saying is right… Medicine will change. AI debates will change. And our understanding of ourselves will change. You will never look at your body the same way again!

In this, the third and final part of a series, I break down some work Michael Levin has done with sorting algorithms. That seems very dry until you hear his claim that these algorithms that are well known and have been studied for decades exhibit extremely unusual behaviour never before spotted because "no one ever bothered to look". This part of the interview is between Ferris and Levin is referring to this paper: https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/10597123241269740 which is available on the arXiv at https://arxiv.org/pdf/2401.05375 and which a Forbes writer authored this "explainer" of sorts here: https://www.forbes.com/sites/andreamorris/2025/11/13/the-secret-life-of-algorithms/ and which Levin himself explains here: https://thoughtforms.life/algorithms-redux-finding-unexpected-properties-in-truly-minimal-systems/ Michael Levin has done some very interesting work in biology around worms regrowing heads and so on. But this "research" is quite a departure from that.

When professionals disagree, school minimizes, and your gut is screaming that something is off, your perspective on your child matters more than any report. If you're raising a high-masking, high-achieving neurodivergent kid, you may be living a split-screen life: "She's doing great here" from school, and daily meltdowns, shutdowns, or refusals at home. It's disorienting and it can make you doubt what you're seeing. In this episode, I talk with Amanda Levin, founder of NeuroSpice Girls, about kids who are both gifted and disabled, socially chatty and autistic, "fine" at school and utterly spent by the time they walk through the front door. We unpack masking, pervasive drive for autonomy, and how school days can be the unseen setup for after-school explosions. We also get honest about advocacy: the missing roadmap for 504s and IEPs, the "hidden menu" of supports no one tells you about, and why so many parents feel like they have to build a case just to get basic help. Amanda shares how she stopped waiting for someone else to fix it, asked her son what he needed, and helped create more accessible religious school programming that works better for all kids. You might walk out of a meeting thinking, "They don't really see my kid." This conversation is meant to steady you and remind you that what you notice at home is real and important. Key Takeaways High masking hides real struggle. Some neurodivergent kids work incredibly hard to "hold it together" at school, then completely unravel at home. That split does not make their struggles less real. Gifted and disabled often coexist. A child can be academically advanced and have significant executive function, sensory, or emotional regulation challenges. Those things live side by side, not in opposition. Invisible disabilities are still disabilities. When there is no wheelchair, no obvious device, or no behavioral disruption at school, systems often downplay needs. Parents are left doing the heaviest lifting behind closed doors. Masking is about survival, not performance. Many autistic and neurodivergent kids suppress their own signals to fit in or avoid negative attention. The cost of doing that all day shows up later as meltdown, shutdown, or "refusal." There is no universal roadmap for services. Amanda's experience highlights how subjective and inconsistent 504 and IEP processes can be. Families often have to hunt for information that should be offered up front. You are allowed to question the system. When school or professionals say, "He's fine here," but home tells a different story, it is reasonable to push back, connect the dots, and insist that what you see matters. Collaboration with your child is a game-changer. Asking, "What would make this more doable for you?" can reveal simple but powerful shifts—shorter commitments, movement breaks, different environments—that reduce demand and increase buy-in. Supports for neurodivergent kids help everyone. The changes Amanda helped create at Hebrew school (shorter time, movement, sensory-aware teaching) are good pedagogy, period. Neuro-affirming design improves access for all kids. Community reduces isolation. NeuroSpice Girls grew out of Amanda's need to talk with people who truly "got it." Peer support and real-time spaces to vent, brainstorm, and share resources make a huge difference for caregivers. Your observations are data. What you see at home, after school, and in everyday routines is not "just your opinion." It is critical information about how your child is actually functioning and what they need to thrive. About Amanda Levin Amanda Levin is the founder of NeuroSpice Girls, a peer support group and social events club for moms of neurodivergent kids in the greater Washington, DC area. She is the mom of a neurospicy fourth grader and a kindergartner, and she brings her background in event planning, government relations, and post–Hurricane Katrina and Rita relief work to building community and practical support for caregivers who are navigating complex systems and big feelings at home.

A former teacher struck off for sexual misconduct was working at an organisation for vulnerable youth for roughly five months, before a ruling detailing her offending was made public. The Teaching Council's Disciplinary Tribunal has found April Nordstrom had a sexual relationship with a student at Whangarei Girls' High School and behaved inappropriately towards three other students at Horowhenua College in Levin. The years the students attended the schools have not been disclosed by the tribunal to protect their identities. Reporter Finn Blackwell spoke to Lisa Owen.

The Transport Agency is considering yet another U-turn over 100 kilometre an hour speed limits of two State Highways near Levin after local concerns. Nick James reports.

For the first time in several years the modern Kurahaupo waka has gone on public display after being moved overland from Levin to Aratoi Museum in Masterton.

For decades, raw sewage was pumped into Lake Horowhenua, earning it the dubious reputation as one of New Zealand's most polluted waterways. Now, a huge cleanup project is underway to try and restore it back to health. But could the fetid lake two kilometres west of Levin ever be safe to swim in again? For the past five summers a special harvester has operated in the lake, chopping out invasive weeds to try and give native species to the chance to flourish and replenish the oxygen-deprived water. Jimmy Ellingham reports.

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.

Meetings don't have to drain time or energy. In fact, they can become one of the most effective tools in a well-run practice! In this episode of the Everyday Oral Surgery Podcast, Dr. Grant Stucki welcomes back Dr. Roger Levin, founder and CEO of Levin Group, for a focused discussion on conducting effective daily business meetings, also known as morning huddles. Dr. Levin challenges the idea that meetings are inherently inefficient and explains why, when done well, they're essential for clear communication in busy oral surgery practices. He breaks down ten practical rules for running effective daily meetings, showing how short, structured check-ins help organize the day, reduce interruptions, and keep teams aligned. The conversation also clarifies what belongs in a daily meeting versus a monthly staff meeting and why office managers play a critical role in setting agendas, managing time, and maintaining focus. Tune in for practical guidance on turning daily meetings into a reliable system that supports efficiency, leadership, and teamwork in your practice!Key Points From This Episode:How meetings gained a reputation as inefficient in business.Why oral surgery practices rely on meetings more than most industries.Three essential meetings for practices: daily business, monthly staff, and annual strategy.A breakdown of Dr. Levin's ten rules for daily business meetings.Rule 1: Start with why and a clear agenda for every meeting.Rule 2: Define the objective so everyone knows what the meeting is for.Rule 3: Invite only the people who truly need to be in the meeting.Rule 4: Start on time and end on time to show respect and leadership.Rule 5: Appoint a facilitator to run and control the meeting.Rule 6: Keep updates brief to maintain focus and momentum.Rule 7: Use a “parking lot” to keep discussions on agenda and save off-topic ideas for later.Rule 8: Encourage participation so meetings stay relevant and engaging.Rule 9: Document action items, assign them, and give deadlines.Rule 10: Follow up immediately so meetings lead to real action.Why short, consistent daily meetings outperform long, infrequent ones.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 —Episode 346 —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

Episode E443 | Inner Voice – A Heartfelt Chat with Dr. Foojan In this episode of Inner Voice – A Heartfelt Chat with Dr. Foojan, Dr. Foojan Zeine sits down with nationally recognized traumatic grief expert Jennifer R. Levin, PhD, LMFT, FT, to explore the complex realities of traumatic grief, sudden loss, and unexpected death. Sudden death can shatter our assumptive world, dysregulate the nervous system, and create symptoms that go far beyond natural grief. Together, they unpack the critical difference between grief and traumatic grief, how shock impacts the brain and body, and why stabilization must happen before deeper grief processing can begin. As founder of Traumatic Grief Solutions and one of fewer than 300 professionals credentialed as a Fellow in Thanatology, Dr. Levin provides crisis response consulting, grief leadership training, and trauma-informed coaching for executives and HR leaders.

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.

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.

Mark Levin sits down with Yael Eckstein, the president and CEO of the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews, to delve into a pressing issue that's affecting us all: the rise of hatred against Jews and Christians. As they navigate this complex landscape, they emphasize the moral and spiritual responsibilities we share in combating this darkness. The conversation begins with a stark reminder of history. Yael highlights how the lessons of the past, from the Holocaust to the rise of communism, demonstrate that moral crises demand a response. The implications of remaining silent are grave, as both communities face threats that extend beyond borders. The episode serves as a clarion call for unity among Jews and Christians, urging listeners to take a stand against the ideologies that seek to divide and destroy. Throughout the discussion, Levin and Eckstein draw parallels between today's challenges and historical events, reminding us that we cannot afford to look away. They stress the importance of acknowledging the spiritual warfare at play and the need for a collective response grounded in biblical values. With rising antisemitism and Christian persecution, the urgency to act has never been more critical. Moreover, the episode highlights the vital role Christians play in supporting Israel, showcasing the growing Christian population in the Middle East and the preservation of holy sites. Yael recounts the inspiring stories of righteous gentiles and the importance of remembering those who stood up against evil in the past. As the episode unfolds, it becomes clear that the path forward lies in taking action. Levin and Eckstein encourage listeners to embody the spirit of love, hope, and godliness as they confront the rising tide of hatred. They remind us that one act of obedience can change the fate of a nation, urging everyone to choose life and stand firm in their convictions. Tune in to this enlightening episode to gain a deeper understanding of the moral and spiritual imperatives that unite us in the fight against hatred. Together, we can choose to stand for truth and light in a world that desperately needs it.
