Ralph welcomes Judith Enck (founder and president of Beyond Plastics, whose goal is to eliminate plastic pollution everywhere) to discuss her new book “The Problem with Plastic: How We Can Save Ourselves and Our Planet Before It's Too Late.” Then, Ralph reflects on the 60th anniversary of “Unsafe at Any Speed.”Judith Enck is the founder and president of Beyond Plastics, whose goal is to eliminate plastic pollution everywhere. In 2009, she was appointed by President Obama to serve as regional administrator at the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and served as deputy secretary for the environment in the New York Governor's Office. She is currently a professor at Bennington College, where she teaches classes on plastic pollution. She is co-author (with Adam Mahoney) of The Problem with Plastic: How We Can Save Ourselves and Our Planet Before It's Too Late.I support recycling…But the sad reality is that plastic recycling has been an abysmal failure. Always has, always will be…You cannot really accomplish high levels of recycling with plastics because you would literally have to do hundreds, if not thousands of different sorting. The people who know this the most are the plastic manufacturers. Yet they have spent hundreds of millions of dollars confusing and deceiving the public into thinking: “Don't worry about all your plastic, just toss it in your recycling bin,” knowing that most plastic never gets recycled.Judith EnckA lot of people feel overwhelmed and that it's hopeless and what can one person do? And that fails to acknowledge that the reason we're not making more progress on climate change is because of the political power of fossil fuel companies. On the plastics issue, we're taking on fossil fuel, chemical, and consumer brand companies and plastics companies. So it's a lot. It's amazing we get anything done. But people around the country are coming together and they're getting victories.Judith EnckI do think if you start paying attention to plastic in your own life, you see that there are alternatives. And then you climb the civic ladder. So you try to reduce plastic in your own home. Then you look at your kid's school. Then you look at your faith community. Then before you know it, you're at your city council asking what can the city do to reduce plastics. You're going to get a couple victories there. And then you find the statewide environmental groups that are working on this. This is for the long haul.Judith EnckThe important thing about [Unsafe at Any Speed] now is: sure, it saved millions of lives and the laws are still on the books, and even Donald Trump can't tear seatbelts and airbags out of our cars. But if we tried to do this again today, it wouldn't happen. And that's because the concentration of corporate power over Congress and the media is so much more intense now. And it's also because the decline of civic institutions and democratic institutions has been very pronounced over the last few decades. And that is sobering us up.Ralph NaderNews 12/5/251. Our top stories this week are on Venezuela. First, the BBCis out with a report on the American military build-up around the Latin American nation, which includes “air and naval forces…a nuclear-powered submarine and spy planes...a range of aircraft carriers, guided-missile destroyers, and amphibious assault ships capable of landing thousands of troops.” So far, the Trump administration has sent mixed messages on whether they plan to launch a full-scale invasion of the Bolivarian Republic, but Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro shows no signs of stepping down without a fight, having declared a “massive mobilisation” of 200,000 military personnel throughout the country. Most ominously, on November 29th, President Trump declared Venezuela's sovereign airspace closed, per the Wall Street Journal.2. However, American bellicosity towards Venezuela is unpopular at home. A CBS poll found that only 30% of Americans would favor the U.S. taking military action in Venezuela, compared to a whopping 70% opposed. Another question in this same poll found that only 13% of Americans consider Venezuela a “major threat” with 48% considering the country a “minor threat” and 39% report they don't think Venezuela is a threat at all. Unfortunately, the lack of popular support for war is unlikely to constrain the Trump administration much, but it is a notable difference from the lead-up to the Iraq War, when 70% of Americans favored an invasion. The American people want peace, even if the government does not. 3. Another key detail from the CBS poll is that “Three in four Americans…say Trump would need congressional approvalbefore taking military action in Venezuela, including just over half of Republicans.” In light of this fact, it is significant that a bipartisan group in Congress is pushing a War Powers resolution to “block strikes on Venezuela,” per the Intercept. This new push in the House is sponsored by stalwart progressive Congressman Jim McGovern and co-sponsored by dissident Republican Thomas Massie along with other progressives like Reps. Ro Khanna, Lloyd Doggett, and Joaquin Castro, among others. As the Intercept piece notes, this resolution must be acted on in the House within 15 days, but by then the administration may have already acted, pre-empting the resolution. A similar resolution has also been introduced in the Senate, primarily backed by Senators Tim Kaine and Rand Paul, with backing from other Senate Democrats, per the Hill.4. Of course, American aggression towards Venezuela is reverberating out into the international community in myriad ways. Generally speaking, while United Nations officials decry the actions, America's European allies have kept quiet – with many speculating that these countries would prefer Maduro's ouster in order to get ready access to Venezuelan oil and decrease their dependence on Russia. China however, has issued a stiff condemnation of American actions. The Iranian Students News Agencyquotes Chinese Foreign Ministry Spokesperson Lin Jian's statement at a Beijing press conference, which where in he stated, “China opposes any action that violates the purposes and principles of the UN Charter or infringes upon the sovereignty and security of other countries…[and] opposes foreign forces interfering in Venezuela's internal affairs under any pretext.” He added, “We urge all parties to keep the Latin American and Caribbean region a peaceful zone and not allow the situation to escalate further.” However, beyond these condemnations, it remains unclear what, if anything, China will do to check American aggression.5. Despite all of this however, House Democratic leadership is typically feckless. In a corollary to the increasing likelihood of strikes against Venezuela directly, Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth has stepped up the campaign of striking boats off the country's coast. Recently, the Washington Post revealed that after a strike in September which left survivors clinging to life, Hegseth ordered a second strike, directing Admiral Frank Bradley to “kill everybody.” This revelation led to calls for House Democrats to pursue impeachment against Hegseth on charges that he violated the laws of war. However, Axiosreports House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries will not pursue a Hegseth impeachment. While true that such a push would likely be DOA, it sends a dark signal that the administration can do something like this and face virtually zero official condemnation. 6. Nevertheless, Republicans have taken such unpopular actions that it seems Democrats will retake the House, perhaps by a wide margin, in the 2026 midterms – or perhaps before. So far, 31 House Republicans have announced they will not seek re-election, with some retiring and others running for other offices. Still others however are signaling that they will resign their offices before the midterms, shaving the slim House GOP majority ever slimmer. Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene has announced she will retire in January 2026. Now, Congresswoman Nancy Mace is reportedly considering resigning early as well, though she has denied such rumors, per KOMO News. Either way, Democrats should be taking this moment to prepare an agenda for if and when they retake control of the chamber. 7. Turning to consumer protection news, Jalopnik reports Senate Republicans are seeking to rollback decades of automobile safety regulations. In a recent hearing held by the Committee on Commerce, Science and Transportation ostensibly to put the CEOs of the Big Three American car manufacturers, as well as Tesla, on the record as to why cars have become so expensive, Republicans on the committee used the opportunity to blame safety regulations. Jalopnik notes that Republican Senators specifically targeted “automated emergency braking, the requirements for which will not come into effect until 2029 and have no bearing on current car prices…[and] back-seat alarms to remind you if you've left a child or pet back there. According to Kids and Car Safety, since 1990 at least 1,165 children have sweltered to death in hot cars, and another 7,500 survived with varying degrees of injury.” The cost of these sensors will amount to about $50 per vehicle. In short, while there are many reasons cars have become considerably more expensive in recent years – including everything from tariffs to data centers buying up all electronic parts – blaming safety regulations is a tired canard. 8. Meanwhile, RFK Jr. is moving to kill a proposed Food and Drug Administration rule to test for asbestos in talc-based cosmetics, the Guardian reports. As this report notes, cosmetics companies have known about potential asbestos contamination of talc since the 1950s, but that fact, like so many other corporate secrets, was suppressed, only coming to light in the 1970s. Asbestos is a highly carcinogenic substance. It has been banned in over 50 countries and “No…level of exposure is considered safe.” However, attempts to ban the substance in the U.S. have been stymied by industry, beginning with the overturning of the EPA's 1989 ban.9. In more legal news, Reuters reports the British government has announced plans to “remove the historic right to trial by jury,” for defendants in criminal cases carrying potential sentences of under three years in jail. The government argues that this will help alleviate the tremendous backlog of cases before the British courts, despite the fact that the right to a jury trial in Britain dates back to the Magna Carta itself. Barbara Mills, chair of the Bar Council, which represents trial lawyers in the U.K., decried this move, stating ”there is no evidence that [the] removal [of jury trials] would reduce the backlog, nor has it been set out how an alternative system would be resourced…We urge the government to reconsider pursuing radical changes under the mistaken belief that radical equals effective.” 10. Finally, in local news, Washington D.C. Councilmember and Democratic Socialist Janeese Lewis George has officially launched her campaign to be the next mayor of the District of Columbia. Lewis George is the first serious candidate to announce a campaign to succeed unpopular three-term Mayor Muriel Bowser, who is retiring this cycle. Like Zohran Mamdani, Lewis George is prioritizing affordability in the increasingly expensive District as well as an emphasis on fixing city services like traffic safety improvement. According to the Washington Post, “Within hours of launching her campaign Monday morning, Lewis George's campaign said it had received enough money from enough D.C. residents to qualify [for the District's matching fund program], which provides public financing for campaigns that agree not to accept large-dollar donations and corporate contributions.” Within hours, “they had netted more than $110,000 in individual donations from 1,500 D.C. residents,” which after being combined with the matching funds, will total over $750,000.” However, many expect her main challenger to be Councilmember Kenyan McDuffie, an ally of corporate interests and developers in the District, who will likely be bankrolled by those same interests. Whatever the future holds, this will surely be the most competitive citywide race the District has seen in decades.

Da desesperança à ação prática — Neste episódio, analisamos o clima político e social do Brasil à luz dos últimos dez anos: das manifestações de 2015, impeachment e avanço da Lava Jato ao cenário atual, com críticas à política econômica e à política externa. O vídeo relembra como expectativas de justiça e renovação cívica deram lugar à frustração, mas propõe uma virada: focar na transformação “de baixo para cima”, no Brasil real, onde indivíduos e comunidades impactam seu entorno. A narrativa culmina no exemplo de Tim Ballard (retratado no filme O Som da Liberdade) e no documentário A Guerra Oculta, destacando o combate ao tráfico de crianças e a força de pessoas comuns que assumem responsabilidades e mudam vidas — como voluntários em tragédias e educadores que formam outros cidadãos. Se o sistema parece inamovível, a mensagem é clara: há muito por fazer no cotidiano, nos valores e na ação responsável de cada um.
A América Latina vive mais um ponto de virada. Em meio ao enfraquecimento de governos de esquerda e ao avanço da direita em diversos países, cresce a pergunta: estamos diante de uma nova onda política no continente? Neste episódio do Magna Carta, analisamos a formação histórica desses ciclos e o impacto que podem ter no futuro do Brasil. Ao longo da história, a América do Sul se moveu em ondas políticas claras: independências, populismos, ditaduras, redemocratizações, bolivarianismo e, agora, um possível novo realinhamento. Chile, Argentina, Colômbia, Venezuela e Brasil vivem tensões que apontam para uma reorganização profunda. Entender esses ciclos é fundamental para compreender o presente e antecipar o futuro político do continente. Magna Carta: Ricardo Gomes oferece análises informativas sobre os acontecimentos que moldam o Brasil e o mundo. Conecte-se com reflexões sobre história e política, fundamentais para decifrar o presente e antecipar os rumos do futuro. Um espaço para quem busca compreender as raízes dos desafios atuais e as perspectivas que se desenham. Informação e análise de impacto. No programa de hoje: A nova onda de direita na América Latina.

Richard Löwenherz und die Magna Carta hätte es ohne den Untergang des Weißen Schiffs bei Barfleur am 25.11.1120 wohl nicht gegeben. 300 Menschen sterben - auch der Thronfolger. Von Daniela Wakonigg.
Magna Carta, Mayflower Compact, and the Constitution Why is the U.S. so free and successful? It is because of our Constitution, which was inspired by ideas from the Magna Carta and the Mayflower Compact. We talk about how the government is not following the Constitution and how some people are admitting that they won't swear an oath or allegiance to it. If they don't like the Constitution or this country as it was built, then they should look at living somewhere else in the world. It is that document that has made us so successful and free. It does not need to be re-written. It needs to be re-read and followed. Learn how protecting your freedom and your wealth can make your world a better place!

Take a deep dive into the cultural and spiritual moment facing Ohio, America, and the Church in today's episode of The Narrative. David and Church Ambassador Network (CAN) Executive Director Chris Lightfoot begin with an inside look at the explosive growth of CAN—from 2,200 to over 5,000 churches—and why pastors across Ohio are urgently seeking Christ-centered worldview formation, marriage and family renewal, and a biblically oriented understanding of Christian citizenship. CCV responded by creating the Minnery Fellowship for Cultural Engagement, a continuing education program for pastors and church leaders, and Hope and a Future to offer churches statewide a scalable model to strengthen families in their communities. David also discussed two pro-life bills that passed out of the Ohio House this week. Following the news, world-renowned author and social critic, Os Guinness, joins the guys to explain the civilizational crossroads America faces as the ideological descendants of the 1776 American Revolution clash with the ideals of the 1789 French Revolution. With the nation’s 250th anniversary approaching in 2026, Guinness argues that it may be “the last, best chance of the last, best hope,” calling Christians to lead a renewal rooted in biblical truth.

Nova York — a cidade que simbolizou o capitalismo mundial, o consumo, a liberdade e o sonho americano — acaba de eleger um prefeito socialista e muçulmano: Zohran Mamdani. Neste episódio, Ricardo Gomes analisa o significado político e simbólico dessa vitória para os Estados Unidos e para o Ocidente. Como o coração do capitalismo global se tornou um reduto do discurso antiamericano? O programa percorre a história de Nova York — da decadência dos anos 80 à revitalização com Giuliani, do 11 de Setembro à atual guinada progressista — para entender como o Partido Democrata se radicalizou e por que essa vitória pode ser, na prática, uma “vitória de Pirro”.
Um panorama direto sobre como a New Left americana e as mudanças econômicas trazidas pela China reconfiguraram a direita nos EUA — do legado Reagan–Friedman ao MAGA/America First. O vídeo aborda: a virada cultural nas universidades, o debate “woke” x valores tradicionais, imigração, desindustrialização, tarifas, e o novo arranjo do Partido Republicano sob Donald Trump. Também compara EUA e Europa, discute os impactos do ingresso da China na OMC, o papel do bipartidarismo e por que a política americana “mudou de eixo” desde o pós-Guerra Fria. __________ Precisa de ajuda para assinar?

Is everyone ready for another musical number?!?! That's right, Julie brings out her songwriting skills and rusty vocal chords in order to cover the final story for Season 20, The King's Demons. We are so sorry for everyone who chose to rewatch these two episodes, but hopefully we give you a better time. Join us as Anthony, Reilly, AND Diana all have a marvelous time in overpronouncing their vowels, Julie continues to bemoan the fact that the BBC was even more cheap than usual, we all argue about the importance of the Magna Carta, and how we all wished that this was all the Meddling Monk instead of the Master. Oh, and Diana is able to point out why Iron Maidens are maidens (hint hint: there are at least TWO reasons).

"Bitcoiners have a spirit. I think the spirit is an ancient spirit. It goes back to the American Revolution. It goes back to the Magna Carta. It goes back to ancient Greece. It goes back to Christianity in the early Middle East.This spirit of individual freedom, individual rights, there's something inside of each of us that is divine, that kind of thing.And I think that is the cultural signal that resonates with all of humanity. And I think that's Bitcoin's culture. And I think that if we lose that, then we lose Bitcoin."~ Chris Guida In this episode, I sit down with developer and Bitcoiner Chris Guida for a deep dive into why we argue - and why that's a good thing. We explore the culture of Bitcoin, how real debate can sharpen ideas, and what it means to fight against centralization both in code and in mindset. We go from the philosophy of disagreement to the mechanics of Lightning, ARK, and merchant adoption, to what makes Bitcoin's culture so uniquely worth defending. Chris and I trade takes on covenants, paper Bitcoin, and the eternal battle between centralization and sovereignty. Why does fiat make us irrational? How do we scale not just Bitcoin's tech, but its culture? And what does it really mean to win - culturally, technologically, and philosophically? It's one of those classic long-form chats where we stretch from technical nuance to deep principles - exactly the kind of conversation Bitcoin demands. Check out our awesome sponsors!

Production 6J: "The King's Demons" (March 15-16, 1983) - Classic Doctor Who Season 20 Finale Review The TARDIS fails to reach Turlough's promised homeworld of Trion, instead materializing in Medieval England during March 1215 - the crucial period leading to the signing of the Magna Carta, one of history's most important constitutional documents. The Fifth Doctor, Tegan, and Turlough arrive at Fitzwilliam Castle to discover King John behaving extraordinarily out of character, acting with uncharacteristic cruelty and tyranny that threatens to derail the entire timeline. The erratic monarch appears to be under the sinister influence of Sir Gilles Estram, a mysterious French nobleman whose features look disturbingly familiar to the Doctor. Investigating this temporal anomaly, the Doctor uncovers a devastating plot orchestrated by his oldest and most persistent nemesis - the Master (Anthony Ainley) has traveled back in time to prevent the Magna Carta from ever being signed, fundamentally altering Earth's democratic history and destabilizing the entire future of human civilization. At the center of this scheme is Kamelion, a shape-shifting android with extraordinary abilities who becomes a pawn in the Master's game and an unexpected addition to the TARDIS crew. Join podcaster John S. Drew and acclaimed writer/editor Jim Beard as they master time and space, delivering comprehensive reviews of every Classic Doctor Who serial. In this Season 20 finale analysis, they dissect the complicated behind-the-scenes story of Kamelion - the ambitious shape-changing robot companion whose technical malfunctions plagued production and limited future appearances, critique how writer Terence Dudley once again relegates both Tegan Jovanka and Turlough to passive bystander roles with minimal character development or meaningful participation, and argue that this two-part story desperately needed additional episodes to properly develop its ambitious historical premise and Master plot. This episode features a remarkably candid conversation about the Fifth Doctor himself. Jim comes clean about his ongoing struggle to connect with Peter Davison's interpretation - after twenty episodes, he still isn't feeling this incarnation and openly wonders if he ever will warm to the Fifth Doctor's gentle, vulnerable characterization. John empathizes completely with Jim's perspective while defending his own position: Peter Davison remains John's absolute favorite Doctor precisely because of the understated qualities Jim finds frustrating - his compassion, emotional accessibility, and fallible heroism rather than commanding authority. "The King's Demons" concludes Season 20's uneven journey toward the monumental 20th Anniversary Special that awaits in November 1983.

Freedom of speech may be under assault in America, but that's nothing compared with what's going on in the United Kingdom, where police are arresting 33 people every day for social media posts. Matt Kibbe sits down with Reem Ibrahim, head of media for the Institute of Economic Affairs, to discuss how Britain has become so authoritarian, the difference in attitude between the British and American public, and whether there is any hope for the nation that gave us the Magna Carta to embrace liberty again.

“Fraudulent conduct robs the government – at all levels, local, state, or federal – of the benefit of competition. Competition is free and open; it is the Magna Carta of the American economic system, and robbing the government of that benefit is inherently wrongful.” Public sector procurement faces mounting challenges, not least of which is the threat of collusion and fraud that quietly erodes budgets and public trust. The Department of Justice's Procurement Collusion Strike Force is taking this seriously, with a coordinated and data-driven approach to cracking down on anticompetitive conduct at all levels. In this episode, Philip Ideson speaks with Daniel Glad, Director of the Procurement Collusion Strike Force at the DOJ, who walks listeners through the reality of prosecuting bid rigging and price fixing in public contracts. Daniel shares compelling stories, actionable red flags, and new tools (like the groundbreaking whistleblower reward program) that empower honest players to speak up. Learn what triggers a federal investigation, which spend categories are especially vulnerable, and why the risks (and penalties) for collusion have never been higher. In this episode, Daniel discusses ways to: Identify which purchasing patterns often attract collusive behavior Detect early warning signs that suggest fraudulent bidding Leverage whistleblower programs to protect your organization and career Understand how technology and data analytics are changing enforcement Prepare for the scrutiny of the DOJ's proactive investigative methods Links: Daniel Glad on LinkedIn Subscribe to This Week in Procurement Subscribe to Art of Procurement on YouTube

This is the story of a city that laid the foundations for our modern world.

Some of history's most illustrious figures have left their mark there, from Alexander the Great and Aristotle to Julius Caesar and Cleopatra.Dan is joined by Islam Issa, Professor of English at Birmingham City University and author of 'Alexandria: The City that Changed the World'. Islam explains how a city that started as a vision in Alexander the Great's mind became a global capital of knowledge.This episode was first released in February 2024.Produced by James Hickmann and edited by Dougal Patmore.You can sign up to watch Dan and Dr Michael Livingston's documentary series on Magna Carta on https://www.historyhit.com/subscribe.We'd love to hear your feedback - you can take part in our podcast survey here: https://insights.historyhit.com/history-hit-podcast-always-on.You can also email the podcast directly at ds.hh@historyhit.com.

Dan and leading medieval historians explain everything you need to know about Magna Carta...and the story is more dramatic than you might think. Magna Carta sprang from an England on the brink of civil war; the feeble king John left grappling for control after a disastrous defeat in France in the early 13th century and a baron's rebellion in England. It was forged at a standoff on the banks of the Thames in 1215 and still provides the basis of law for most of the English-speaking world today.With thanks to Dr Michael Livingston, Dan Jones and Dr Jess Nelson.This episode was produced by Mariana Des Forges and edited by Dougal Patmore with additional production from Mark Edger.Click here to listen to Dan's explainer on William the MarshalClick here to listen to Dan's explainer on Richard the LionheartYou can sign up to watch Dan and Dr Michael Livingston's documentary series on Magna Carta on https://www.historyhit.com/subscribe.We'd love to hear your feedback - you can take part in our podcast survey here: https://insights.historyhit.com/history-hit-podcast-always-on.You can also email the podcast directly at ds.hh@historyhit.com.

Henry III of England and Alexander II of Scotland met in York to settle the whole "where does England end, and where does Scotland begin?" question on 25th September, 1237. The consequent ‘Treaty of York' (mostly) settled the map of the borders right up to the present day. Alexander agreed to give up claims on northern English counties like Northumberland, Cumberland, and Westmoreland in return for a small chunk of land and the right to hand over one falcon a year as a symbolic payment. Yes, a falcon. Medieval politics loved a bit of flair. In this episode, Arion, Rebecca and Olly consider how future English kings could spin Scotland's resultant ‘fealty' as an admission that England was the natural powerhouse; discover the lawlessness of the borderlands for the centuries afterwards; and reveal just how many times Berwick-upon-Tweed has caused a cartographical headache… Further Reading: • ‘A History of Scotland, Series 1, Hammers of the Scots, The Treaty of York, 1237' (BBC, 2013): https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p0198xmq • ‘Magna Carta, Scotland and Scots Law' (University of Edinburgh, 2025): https://www.pure.ed.ac.uk/ws/portalfiles/portal/31216033/Magna_Carta_Scotland_and_Scots_Law_LQR_version.pdf • ‘The world's oldest border?'

Fear is not a moral failing. We live in a time when many suffer under its weight, and too often they are told their trembling is weakness, their hesitation is shame. Yet the truth is simpler, more human: fear comes to all of us. It rises when news breaks, when uncertainty stalks our steps, when something we cherish feels threatened. The real sign of character is not that we never fear, but how we act after it.I want you to picture this: a calm river, swift in its course, carrying a small flame upon its surface. The water could drown it, the current could snuff it out, yet the flame holds steady, riding the flow. That is courage as care. Not the absence of fear, but the presence of a steady light that moves through the world without being consumed.Naming Fear for What It IsFear comes roaring into our lives uninvited. It seizes the body before the mind has time to catch up. The pulse races, the breath shortens, the old instincts rise: fight, flight, or freeze. None of this makes you lesser. Fear is part of being alive.But if we stay only in that reaction, we become trapped. In this time of social cocoons and filter bubbles, fear is magnified. Social media teaches us to wall ourselves off, to curate only what feels safe, to harden our hearts against one another. Authenticity becomes manufactured, and cynicism spreads like poison. We mock what we love, sneer at tenderness, and call compassion “cringe.”The result is a culture that lives by fear's script. We let outrage gather the crowd while love stands forgotten in the corner. We repeat what frightens us, but we forget to defend what we actually cherish.From Reaction to ResponseNo one has ever frightened off a bear by cowering. Likewise, no society can withstand storms by shouting at the wind. Fear alone does not guide us; outrage alone does not sustain us. What matters is what comes after the fear.Courage begins with a shift: the move from passive to active, from consuming to creating. We start small, by saying no more. No more letting fear dictate my choices. No more pretending that despair is the only honest response. No more waiting for someone else to build the world I long for.Here, personal action is born. Journal it, pray it aloud, whisper it to the night sky: This is what I love. This is what I will defend. This is what I will build.Faith without works is dead, wrote James. Belief without action is empty breath. The spark of courage is to begin.The Path of VocationUnder empire, most are told they have only jobs, only functions in the machine. But deeper down, every soul holds a vocation, a calling, a longing, a true work. We know it in our bones even when we cannot yet name it.To face fear is not merely to endure; it is to turn toward this vocation. It may not come easy. It may require stripping away the false answers capitalism whispers: that joy comes from status, that meaning comes from consumption. True vocation is found not in profit but in passion, not in what you hate but in what you love.Write it out. Let the pages bear witness: what does a good life mean to me? What matters enough that I would build it even in a time of storm? Courage is not simply gritting your teeth against danger, it is care made visible.From Me to WeThe empire has convinced us we are alone. The so-called “me generation” was trained in isolation, told that each person's fate was their own burden to carry. But fear multiplies when it is locked in a single chest.Courage grows when we remember the we. It begins personally, but it does not end there. We don't need a savior from outside. We save us. It's not me or you, it's we.Collective action is the river that carries the flame. History shows it again and again: rights were won because people banded together, refused to be silent, and built new contracts of life together. From the Magna Carta to movements for civil rights, the story is the same. Courage is communal.What can this look like for us? It can be as simple as joining a group that aligns with your vision of good. It can be lending your voice, your art, your organizing, your cooking, your letters, your presence. Not everyone will write the pamphlet that sparks revolution, but each of us can be part of the chorus that keeps hope alive.Building Beyond CynicismYelling at the wind is not enough. We must plant shelters, build mutual aid, support the voices already speaking truth, defend the freedom of others to speak, and pour resources into the work that nourishes our communities.Cynicism is cheap fuel. It burns fast and leaves only ash. Love, by contrast, is renewable. It feeds us as we feed it. Outrage may rally a crowd for a moment, but only love builds a world that endures.Imagine again that river, swift and peaceful. Fear is the current, it will always run through life. But courage is the flame, steady on the water. Together we keep it alive.An InvitationSo here is the invitation:* Begin with yourself. Say no more to fear's reign. Claim what you love. Write it, pray it, act on it.* Step into your vocation. Let your life bear witness to what brings joy, healing, and meaning.* Then join the we. Plug into the movements already stirring, or build with others from the ground up. Let courage as care shape not just your choices but our common life.We live in a fearful time, yes. But we also live in a time when the One Life flows through us, binding us together like the waters of a single river. Courage is how we tend that life. Courage is how we care.The flame is in your hands. Place it on the river. Let it float. Let it carry you toward the world we are meant to make, together.Thanks for reading!

Wiltshire, ein früher Morgen: Nebel liegt über den Feldern, am Horizont ragen gewaltige Steine auf, die seit Jahrtausenden Rätsel aufgeben – Stonehenge. Errichtet in der Jungsteinzeit, mindestens 3000 v. Chr., besteht das Monument aus tonnenschweren Quadern, deren Transport bis heute ein ungelöstes Geheimnis bleibt. Zur Sommersonnenwende fällt ein Lichtstrahl exakt auf den Opferstein – ein astronomisches Phänomen, das Pilger bis heute anzieht. Mythen erzählen, der Zauberer Merlin habe die Steine aus Irland herbeigezaubert oder Riesen hätten sie aufgestellt. Wissenschaftlich gilt Stonehenge als Begräbnisstätte, Ritualort und Kalender zugleich – und als das bekannteste Wahrzeichen einer Grafschaft, die weit mehr zu bieten hat. -- In dieser Folge BRITPOD nehmen Euch Alexander-Klaus Stecher und Claus Beling mit nach Wiltshire, die Region mit der größten Dichte prähistorischer Monumente weltweit. Neben Stonehenge besuchen sie das Dorf Avebury mit seinem noch größeren Steinkreis, durch den man bis heute frei spazieren kann. Sie entdecken die weißen Pferde, die im 18. Jahrhundert in die Kreidehügel gescharrt wurden und bis heute die Identität der Region prägen. Und sie erzählen von der majestätischen Kathedrale von Salisbury, einem architektonischen Wunder, das Ken Follett zu „Die Säulen der Erde“ inspirierte und die Magna Carta beherbergt – jenes Dokument, das als Grundlage moderner Demokratie gilt. -- Wiltshire ist auch ein Ort der Zeitreisen: In Castle Combe und Lacock scheint die Zeit stehen geblieben zu sein. Mittelalterliche Gassen, einst durch die Wollindustrie wohlhabend, heute weltbekannte Drehorte für Filme wie Harry Potter und Downton Abbey. Dazu Bradford on Avon, oft „Mini-Bath“ genannt, mit seinen engen Brücken und Fachwerkhäusern. Wer das Land auf andere Weise erkunden will, fährt auf einem Narrowboat über den Kennet-&-Avon-Kanal, einst Handelsweg, heute ein stilles Band durch die Landschaft. Alexander-Klaus Stecher und Claus Beling nehmen Euch mit in eine Grafschaft, in der Geschichte, Natur und Magie bis heute untrennbar verbunden sind. BRITPOD – England at its best! -- WhatsApp: Du kannst Alexander und Claus direkt auf ihre Handys Nachrichten schicken! Welche Ecke Englands sollten die beiden mal besuchen? Zu welchen Themen wünschst Du Dir mehr Folgen? Warst Du schon mal in Great Britain und magst ein paar Fotos mit Claus und Alexander teilen?

Michael Savage delves into Plato's Allegory of the Cave and how it speaks to recent events. He explains how Plato's teachings parallel the circumstances surrounding Charlie Kirk's assassination. Then he shifts to President Trump's state visit to Britain and meeting with Prime Minister Keir Starmer. Savage shares how he was a canary in the coal mine when banned from entering England. He blasts the land of the Magna Carta for its attempts to silence him and its citizens for speaking truth.

Eleanor of Aquitaine is best known as the wife of England's Henry II, the mother of his numerous children—including two kings, Richard the Lionheart and his infamous brother John, of Magna Carta fame—and perhaps for her long incarceration at Henry's insistence after their burning romance turned to ashes. What is often forgotten is that Eleanor, before she ever met Henry, ruled as queen of France for fifteen years. About a decade into her marriage, Eleanor accompanied her husband, King Louis VII, on the Second Crusade to re-establish Christian control over Jerusalem. In The Queen's Companion (Cuidono Press, 2025), this is where her story intersects with that of Lucy Pick's narrator, Lady Aude, who has her own reasons for traveling from Europe to the Holy Land. Interspersed with the events of the Second Crusade, told from the point of view of the crusaders and witnessed by Aude as Eleanor's lady-in-waiting, is Aude's own history, which she presents in the form of stories to Eleanor and her women. Aude is ruthlessly honest in revealing her own flaws and errors as well as her triumphs, and through her voice Lucy Pick creates a character—at times unlikable, but always indomitable and even admirable, much like Eleanor herself—who shines a spotlight onto medieval life in all its complexity. Lucy Pick, a historian of the thought and culture of medieval Spain, taught for over twenty years at the Divinity School of the University of Chicago. The Queen's Companion is her second novel. C. P. Lesley is the author of two historical fiction series set during the childhood of Ivan the Terrible and four other novels. Her latest book, Song of the Steadfast, appeared in 2025.

Professor of Medieval History David Carpenter passionately debunks myths about the Magna Carta, revealing its true impact.In this engaging episode of History Rage, host Paul Bavill is joined by esteemed historian and professor of medieval history at King's College London, David Carpenter, as they navigate the turbulent waters of 1215—a year marked by rebellious barons, a tempestuous king, and the historic signing of the Magna Carta. The Myth of the Signature:David passionately debunks the long-standing misconception that King John 'signed' the Magna Carta, clarifying that it was, in fact, sealed. He elaborates on the significance of this document, which for the first time formally subjected the king to the law, ensuring that no one could be imprisoned or stripped of their property without due legal process. Beyond the Barons:Listeners will discover that the Magna Carta is not merely a self-serving agreement for the barons, but a charter that encompasses a broader societal context, addressing the rights of the church, local governance, and even the rights of women, albeit with notable limitations. The Legacy of the Charter:As the conversation unfolds, David shares insights into the evolving interpretation of the Magna Carta throughout history, including its relevance in contemporary legal contexts. He highlights how key principles from the charter continue to resonate in modern legal frameworks, underscoring its enduring legacy. Exciting Discoveries:In a thrilling twist, David recounts his recent discovery of a previously overlooked original copy of the 1300 Magna Carta at Harvard Law School, sparking new interest and research into the document's historical significance and its impact on the rule of law. This episode is a compelling exploration of one of history's most pivotal documents, challenging listeners to reconsider the narratives surrounding the Magna Carta and its implications for freedom and governance. Join Paul and David as they unravel the complexities of a document that has shaped the course of history.
