In Davos last month, Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney lamented what he called “the end of a pleasant fiction.” That notion has is hard to fathom yet impossible to ignore. For decades, the United States did not merely wield power. It framed power in moral terms. Legitimacy. Integrity. Rules. Whether we always lived up to those words is one question. Whether we still speak them with credibility is another. In this solo reflection, Corey Nathan explores what it means when America is no longer the country that lends moral language to the world order, but the country other nations feel compelled to hedge against. From Tocqueville's warning about democratic withdrawal to Jonathan Rauch's analysis of patrimonialism, from Lincoln's humility to the theological posture of the National Prayer Breakfast, this episode wrestles with a turning point. If the pleasant fiction is over, what replaces it?

Integrity and legitimacy were not just strategic tools but aspirations. Today, that language lands differently, not as calling card but as indictment. From Moral Order to Patrimonialism Drawing on the work of Jonathan Rauch, this episode examines what happens when public power begins to resemble personal property. Loyalty replaces rules. Access depends on fealty. Markets and institutions begin to read the room rather than uphold neutral principles. The National Prayer Breakfast and Theological Posture A prayer breakfast is meant to orient upward in humility. When reverence bends inward, the shift is not merely stylistic. It is theological. Tocqueville's Warning Democracy's danger may not arrive as sudden tyranny but as gradual withdrawal. Citizens retreat into private grievance. Moral discipline erodes. Individualism curdles into narcissism. The Comforting Assumption About Ourselves Nearly every white pastor today believes they would have stood with Martin Luther King Jr. The question is not whether that belief is sincere. The question is whether it would have been true. The Choice Before Citizens The world is already adjusting. Allies hedge. Middle powers collaborate. The question now belongs to citizens, not prime ministers. Withdrawal is understandable. It is not inevitable. Why This Matters Now The loss at stake is not only status but trust. If the pleasant fiction required tending, then its collapse requires responsibility. Renewal, if it comes, will not arrive through taunts or spectacle. It will be decided by habits, by courage, by whether citizens retreat or step forward. Connect on Social Media Corey is @coreysnathan on all the socials...

Episode 262 We gotta pay respects to several people who passed, and then we touch topics including the Super Bowl halftime show, GloRilla's viral family situation, childhood rap names, J. Cole's recent release, and Valentine's Day. The Super Bowl performance by Bad Bunny, culture and representation, language barriers, and the backlash from people like Trump, while also talking about the U.S. as a melting pot and the value of learning Spanish. The conversation shifts to GloRilla and her sister going viral over claims that GloRilla isn't supporting family financially; the hosts unpack conflicting accounts, the realities of rapper income, taxes and label advances, the ethics of family expectations, and how posting family issues online can permanently damage relationships. Y'all won't believe our old rap names and we gotta review J. Cole's new project, with one host breaking down the concept while others criticize the music as repetitive, overly self-produced, and overly tied to ‘the Ville,' alongside broader thoughts on artistry, growth, and the ‘best rapper' persona. 00:00 Cold Open: Hustle Bars & Intro Vibes00:30 Episode Kickoff: What Movie Clip Was That?01:08 RIP Shoutouts & Weekend Rundown Setup02:56 Super Bowl Watch Party Recap03:39 Bad Bunny Halftime Debate: Representation vs. Personal Taste10:29 America as a Melting Pot: Language, Subtitles & Culture19:53 Should Americans Learn Spanish?

They raised their hands. Every. Single. One of them.The survivors sat three feet behind the Attorney General of the United States...a phalanx of white and blacked-out redaction shirts. When asked if the Department of Justice failed them, the hands went up. When asked if they'd been ignored by the very people sworn to protect them, the hands stayed up.But when asked if they actually trusted the DOJ? Dead silence.While they stood, Pam Bondi stared at her notes like eye contact was a biohazard. No apology for the "accidental" release of victim nudes. No explanation for why billionaire predators got the luxury of a black marker while their prey got doxed.She had the audacity to say she wouldn't "get in the gutter" with the committee.But here's the reality: The gutter is where those survivors' private lives were dumped.Let's break down the absolute circus of the February 11th Judiciary hearing.Welcome to the gutter.

On this episode, Alex breaks down the brewing showdown at the 2026 Milano-Cortina Winter Olympics, where U.S. athletes are publicly criticizing the Trump administration's policies and defending their right to speak out—even as Vice President JD Vance insists they “play sport, not politics” and President Trump lashes back. From boos in Milan to online culture-war clashes, Alex asks: is the Olympic flame now a megaphone for protest as much as performance?

If you ask someone in the United States whether to reconsider their health insurance plan choices, they may sigh, roll their eyes, and offer a story about navigating a maze of deductibles, networks, and confusing brochures. In practice, most people end up doing the simplest thing possible: they stay in the same plan they are already in. Economists have long noticed this pattern. Even when plans raise their prices or competitors offer better deals, people tend to remain where they are. This raises a fascinating question: do people stay because switching is difficult, or because they genuinely prefer the plan they already have? A new study by the economist Prof. Ariel Pakes of Harvard University, and colleagues Prof. Mark Shepard and Prof. Jack Porter, digs into this puzzle and uncovers some surprising answers. Although the study uses sophisticated mathematical tools, the insights are straightforward and important for anyone interested in how health insurance markets work.

Two taps. That's all it took to reorder your regular Dunkin order through CarPlay while driving. Sounds like the perfect frictionless feature, right? Except it was quietly training customers to spend less on every visit because they never discovered loaded hash browns existed. Sometimes making things too easy becomes the problem.This encore episode brings back one of our most quoted conversations with Adam Candela, who spent five years leading digital at Dunkin and fundamentally changed how we think about balancing frictionless with profitability.  Join hosts Chuck Moxley and Nick Paladino as they revisit why this episode matters.Nick literally quotes it in meetings once a week, particularly the CarPlay example that shows how extreme optimization in one direction can backfire. Adam breaks down why frictionless isn't just about speed and simplicity, but about creating experiences that are quick, thorough, profitable, and get customers to return and recruit others to your brand. We explore when personalization crosses from convenient to creepy, why "it's digital, just turn it on" stakeholders fundamentally misunderstand product complexity, and the power of creating psychological safety so your QA team feels comfortable sharing game-changing ideas. Key Actionable Takeaways:Balance ease with discovery opportunities - Making reordering too frictionless can train customers into routines that prevent them from discovering new products, hurting both upsell and brand loyalty buildingCreate psychological safety for frontline insights - QA teams and people closest to the product often have the best ideas; build team dynamics where they feel comfortable sharing without fear of being dismissedChallenge "it's digital, just turn it on" stakeholders - Digital initiatives require architecture planning, story pointing, QA test cases, understanding customer needs, and solving actual problems, not just quick implementation of requested featuresWant more tips and strategies about creating frictionless digital experiences? Subscribe to our newsletter! https://www.thefrictionlessexperience.com/frictionless/Download the Five Step Site Speed Target Playbook: http://bluetriangle.com/playbookAdam Candela's LinkedIn: https://linkedin.com/in/adamcandela Nick Paladino's LinkedIn: https://linkedin.com/in/npaladino Chuck Moxley's LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/chuckmoxley/Chapters:(00:00) Introduction(01:00) CarPlay upsell problem(02:15) Creepy vs convenient(02:45) Hippo dynamics(03:15) Stakeholder pushback(04:09) Adam's Dunkin role(05:21) Defining frictionless(06:15) Loyalty vs repeat purchase(08:30) CarPlay integration details(11:45) Losing upsell opportunities(14:30) Personalization boundaries(17:00) Location-based notifications(20:15) Android Auto moment(23:45) Tech adoption humility(27:30) Team idea generation(30:00) QA team insights(33:15) Psychological safety(37:00) Hippo self-awareness(38:19) Acronym correction(38:45) Biggest misconception(39:15) Digital should be quick(40:00) Asking why matters(41:15) Solution vs problem(42:24) ConclusionKeywords:Chuck Moxley, Nick Paladino, Adam Candela, The Frictionless Experience, Dunkin Donuts, Inspire Brands, CarPlay integration, mobile ordering, upsell optimization, customer loyalty, personalization limits, location-based marketing, psychological safety, product management, stakeholder management, digital complexity, QA teams, frictionless profitability, customer recruitment,, mobile app strategy, product discovery,

his is the uncut reaction—no edits, no filters.Leviticus 26:1 is clear:“You shall not make idols for yourselves…”So where is the line between loyalty and idolatry?At what point does defending someone turn into elevating them above accountability?This moment forces a hard conversation about truth, allegiance, and spiritual discernment in today's culture.Watch closely.Listen carefully.Then ask yourself—who are we really protecting?

In dieser Folge spricht Robin Nehring mit André Pallinger, Geschäftsführer der S-Markt & Mehrwert, über die Kooperation zwischen Payback und den Sparkassen. Im Fokus: Warum das Projekt in seiner Tiefe und Größe besonders ist, wie die Integration bis ins Kernbankensystem gelungen ist und warum „Bezahlen und Sammeln“ künftig noch einfacher werden soll. André ordnet die Dimension ein: Payback als größtes deutsches Kundenbindungsprogramm trifft auf das regionale Händlernetzwerk der Sparkassen. Daraus entsteht ein Modell, das nationale Handelspartner und über 10.000 lokale Händler in einem Programm zusammenbringt und damit im Alltag der Kundinnen und Kunden deutlich relevanter werden soll. Ein zentrales Thema ist die Aktivierung: André nennt den Meilenstein von über einer Million verknüpfter und aktiv nutzender Kundinnen und Kunden innerhalb der ersten Monate nach dem Start. Außerdem gibt er Einblicke in die Kampagnenlogik von zentralen Medienmaßnahmen bis zur regionalen Kreativität einzelner Sparkassen. Spannend wird es beim „One-Step-Checkout“: Das Sammeln und Bezahlen in einem Schritt soll das klassische „Karte vergessen“-Problem lösen. Edeka/Netto sind bereits live, Aral und dm folgen als nächste große Partner. Intern lief dabei nicht alles „idealtypisch“ nach Projektplan: Die Koordination von Sparkassen, IT, Netzbetreibern, Händlern, Kassensystemen und Terminalherstellern war der eigentliche Kraftakt. Zum Schluss geht es um den Ausblick: „Bezammeln“ als Begriff soll in die Köpfe, Aktivierung wird dauerhaft gespielt und künftig sollen nicht mehr nur Kooperation und Punkte im Vordergrund stehen, sondern Sparkassenprodukte, deren Attraktivität über Payback-Incentives gesteigert wird.

Even from behind bars, Ghislaine Maxwell has remained a steadfast and vocal defender of Prince Andrew, clinging to a narrative of innocence that defies the mountain of public scrutiny and survivor testimony. In interviews and through intermediaries, Maxwell has repeatedly insisted that the infamous photo of Prince Andrew with Virginia Giuffre—his arm around her bare waist, Maxwell herself grinning in the background—is either doctored or misrepresented. This denial comes despite the fact that the image has been widely authenticated and corroborated by multiple individuals, including Giuffre. Maxwell's unwavering defense appears less about truth and more about protecting a shared past—one steeped in elite privilege, mutual secrets, and potentially incriminating knowledge. Her loyalty to Andrew reads not as moral conviction, but as a desperate act of preservation for a world that once protected them both.What stands out about Maxwell's continued defense of Prince Andrew is how consistent it has remained, even after her own conviction. Rather than expressing any accountability or reflecting on the damage caused by the trafficking ring she was convicted of helping to run, Maxwell has chosen to double down on denying Andrew's involvement. She's made repeated claims that the photo of Andrew with Virginia Giuffre is fake, despite no credible evidence to support that. Her stance seems rooted less in legal strategy and more in loyalty to past allies. It suggests that, even in prison, Maxwell is still protecting the network of high-profile individuals connected to Epstein, perhaps in the hope that continued silence or allegiance might one day benefit her.

This episode dives into the meaning of loyalty and where it should end. We unpack how loyalty is often demanded in families, friendships, relationships, and communities—even when it comes at the cost of self-respect, truth, or safety. Through real-life examples and honest conversation, we question whether loyalty should be unconditional or earned, and how to create healthy limits without guilt.This is a conversation about choosing integrity over obligation, boundaries over blind allegiance, and learning when loyalty becomes a liability.Support the show

If you are in the Pharosphere, then you will know that relationships and people are at the core of our business. We are noted for our bells and whistles, but the loyalty we have fostered is due mainly to the personalities that give life to our spaces.In this episode of Pac Talk, I had the opportunity to work out with our leadership team and then sit down for one-to-one conversations with each of them.

Stefan Molyneux tackles moral dilemmas through the lens of Universally Preferable Behavior. He delves into love and moral bonds, separating the care for babies from romantic attachments, and stresses that truth should guide moral duties rather than blind loyalty—particularly in cases of family abuse. He touches on issues like shared parenting and favoritism toward relatives, pushing for decisions based on ability instead of connections. Molyneux also looks at how stories of victimhood can undermine one's sense of control and underscores free will as a core part of ethical thinking. He wraps up by considering the duty to seek virtue, noting how choices today shape what comes next for others.GET FREEDOMAIN MERCH! https://shop.freedomain.com/SUBSCRIBE TO ME ON X! https://x.com/StefanMolyneuxFollow me on Youtube! https://www.youtube.com/@freedomain1GET MY NEW BOOK 'PEACEFUL PARENTING', THE INTERACTIVE PEACEFUL PARENTING AI, AND THE FULL AUDIOBOOK!https://peacefulparenting.com/Join the PREMIUM philosophy community on the web for free!Subscribers get 12 HOURS on the "Truth About the French Revolution," multiple interactive multi-lingual philosophy AIs trained on thousands of hours of my material - as well as AIs for Real-Time Relationships, Bitcoin, Peaceful Parenting, and Call-In Shows!You also receive private livestreams, HUNDREDS of exclusive premium shows, early release podcasts, the 22 Part History of Philosophers series and much more!See you soon!https://freedomain.locals.com/support/promo/UPB2025
