    Rambo Van Halen is a pseudonym. He's a Hollywood producer — the real kind, the below-the-line kind, the guy making sure the steel gets to the factory — who worked in the industry for decades, walked away in 2019, and wrote a book about it.The book is called Hollywood Samizdat: Notes from Below the Line. It's published by Passage Press. Lou read it. He dog-eared it. They talked for an hour. Topics include: what a producer actually does (mostly administration, definitely not what people think); what happens to actors when nobody says no to them for 20 years; the feminization of Hollywood and why straight guys stopped being able to do their jobs; military veterans vs. film school graduates on set (no contest); Werner Herzog, Klaus Kinski, and the Amazon river; the unwritten casting rule about who can and can't be the butt of the joke; MeToo — the careers it should have ended, the ones it shouldn't have, and the Joe Gatt story that will make your jaw drop; and why Rambo Van Halen is not his real name and probably never will be.

    What are the implications for girls and young women of Alan Milburn's review for the Government into rising levels of inactivity among 16 to 24-year-olds? There are currently just under a million young people in this age range dubbed NEETs because they are not in education, employment or training. Anita Rani speaks to former Labour Home Secretary Baroness Smith, now Minister for Skills, as well as Minister for Women and Equalities. A BBC investigation looks at on the global expansion of the manosphere and the social media algorithms which are driving young men towards increasingly extreme views on gender, relationships and masculinity. BBC Global Disinformation reporter Jacqui Wakefield examines the rise of two of the most influential manosphere figures in Latin American and Africa – El Temach in Mexico and, Andrew Kibe in Kenya. She joins Anita to tell her what it was like spending time with these influencers and about the women living with the real-life consequences of their influence. Would you ever consider working from your bed? Perhaps you do, by choice or otherwise? Dermatologist Dr Alexis Granite and The Archers Podcast's Emma Freud are both fans and join Anita. Jodi Kantor is a Pulitzer-prize winning investigative journalist. In October 2017 she - alongside her colleague Megan Twohey - published a groundbreaking exposé in the New York Times detailing decades of sexual abuse allegations against the former film producer Harvey Weinstein - which galvanised the global MeToo movement. Jodi is back with a new book: How to Start, which is all about how to launch a career in uncertain times. Presenter: Anita Rani Producer: Corinna Jones

    Normalizing Non-Monogamy -  Interviews in Polyamory and Swinging

    Join us for this incredible conversation as Reid shares his personal origin story of becoming the queer polyamorous slut that he is today. He also takes us behind the scenes into his journey of becoming a sex educator, and how his work was often inspired by his own need to learn and figure out how to do sex and relationships in a better way. And… Along the way we uncover a ton of tips, tricks, and wisdom that Reid has learned over the years and how he uses the tools he teaches to improve his own life and relationships.  As seen on NETFLIX' "Chelsea Does..." alongside Chelsea Handler, Reid Mihalko (he/him) of ReidAboutSex.com is an internationally known sex and relationship geek who helps adults create more self-esteem, self-confidence, and greater health and accountability in their relationships and sex lives using an inspiring mixture of humor, personal stories, keen insight, and comprehensive sexual health information.  In early 2018, some very brave people came forward during #MeToo sharing harms that Reid had caused them. Reid stepped down from teaching and initiated a restorative justice-based accountability process to address his misconduct and make amends if and where possible. The formal, year-long process along with Reid's apology and resources were shared publicly and can be found at TinyURL.com/reidaccountability. Going forward, Reid's projects and appearances will include pointing people towards resources and experts on restorative and transformative justice-based accountability processes. Reid's workshops and college lectures have been attended by over 60,000 people from all over the globe. He has appeared in media such as Oprah's Our America With Lisa Ling on OWN, NETFLIX, Montel, Dr. Phil's The Doctors on CBS, Bravo's Miss Advised, Fox News, in Newsweek, Seventeen, GQ, The Washington Post, and in thirteen countries and at least seven languages. Reid is also founder of Sex Geek Summer Camp, Sex Geek Conservatory, and Sex Geek School for Gifted Sex Geeks, which help sex educators learn valuable business skills that allow them to reach more people with greater ease, transform more lives, and make a better living as sexperts.

    Writer and cultural critic Phoebe Maltz Bovy joins Meghan to discuss her new book, The Last Straight Woman, an exploration of how heterosexual women became suspect — if not pitifully uncool — in progressive culture. They talk about everything from Tumblr-era feminism and the post-#MeToo recalibration of gender politics to the television series Sex and the City and Girls, "photogenic feminism," bachelorette parties at gay bars, late-in-life lesbians, hookup culture, and why admitting you're a "boring straight woman" may now qualify as a radical act. We also revisit the "lesbian chic" era of the 1990s (my personal heyday), the discourse around the viral New Yorker short story Cat Person, the appeal (and limits) of sexual fluidity narratives, and the cultural overlap between straight female culture and gay male sensibilities.

    Quelques mois après les élections municipales en France, et à 1 an de l'élection présidentielle, la montée de l'extrême droite continue, mais la lutte s'organise. Le match est terminé seulement après le coup de sifflet final ! Pas de défaitisme ! Parmi ses courants : le masculinisme qui pousse la misogynie à son paroxysme. L'une de ses formes est la misogynoir, qui vise les femmes noires dans laquelle la race et le genre jouent un rôle concomitant. Le concept est inventé par Moya Bailey, féministe noire et queer. Il me semble indispensable d'écouter et réécouter les autrices et auteurs qui travaillent sur ces sujets. Voici donc une rediffusion de l'épisode 50 avec la journaliste et autrice Christelle Murhula, que j'avais interviewée en novembre 2022 lors de la parution de son livre "Amours silenciées - Repenser la révolution romantique depuis les marges" aux éditions Daronnes. Cet essai brillant et facile à lire pose une question épineuse : la révolution romantique dont nous parlent Victoire Tuaillon, Mona Chollet, Titiou Lecoq, Charlotte Bienaimé, et d'autres autrices féministes et militants, cette révolution est-elle possible pour tous et toutes ? Quand on subit le racisme, le fétichisme, le validisme, la grossophobie et d'autres discriminations, peut-on rêver à un amour possible avec plus d'égalité, plus de respect ? Quand on grandit dans un monde où prendre un café avec son crush n'est pas accessible (parce qu'il n'y a pas d'endroit !), vit-on les mêmes histoires d'amour ? Comment construire nos modèles romantiques ? Autant de questions passionnantes et bien d'autres (dont le colorisme) que nous abordons ensemble dans cet épisode. Bonne écoute !

Elle permettrait de sortir de la dépendance à l'Autre, de combattre les inégalités dans le couple, surtout hétérosexuel, et de se sentir plus libre dans ses choix. Certain·e·s diront même que révolutionner son couple, c'est un peu abattre le patriarcat.Si le programme paraît alléchant et si le débat est absolument indispensable, Christelle Murhula, journaliste et féministe noire, ajoute sa pierre à l'édifice en faisant un constat un peu amer  : cette révolution amoureuse ne s'adresse pas à tout le monde, et surtout pas à elle.En partant de travaux scientifiques, d'exemples précis et de son expérience, l'autrice interroge les solutions proposées par cette grande révolution. Elle se demande : pour qui existe la révolution romantique  ? Quelle est la place des femmes noires dans ce débat  ? Qui sont les oubliées de l'amour ?Et surtout : pourquoi vouloir faire couple à tout prix  ?Un livre qui nous permet de faire un pas de côté sur le débat actuel ; aujourd'hui il n'est plus possible de penser cette révolution individuellement, mais c'est bien une lutte collective qui doit se mettre en place." Ainsi que le livre collectif auquel elle a participé "Moi aussi MeToo, au-delà du hashtag" paru en octobre 2022. Résumé : "À l'occasion des 5 ans de #MeToo, un livre collectif dirigé par Rose Lamy qui croise les regards de neuf femmes sur cette révolution féministe, ses limites, ses enjeux et ses perspectives.En octobre 2017, #MeToo se propageait sur les réseaux sociaux, et le monde ne serait plus jamais comme avant. Si l'on sait que ce mouvement marquera l'histoire, on peine encore à en mesurer toutes les conséquences, tant il est en évolution permanente et ouvre des fronts de lutte multiples.Cinq ans plus tard, ce collectif dirigé par Rose Lamy réunit neuf femmes et autrices.Elles sont journalistes, militantes, musiciennes, étudiantes, philosophes, chercheuses ou essayistes, d'origine et d'âge différents, et portent un regard singulier sur cette révolution féministe. Le mouvement a-t-il réellement commencé en 2017 ? Y a-t-il eu une « vague » en France ? A-t-il profité à toutes les femmes ? Que veulent les victimes de violences sexistes ? Quelles forces s'organisent contre #MeToo ?" https://www.editions-jclattes.fr/livre/moi-aussi-9782709671200/ Références citées dans l'épisodeLivres"Réinventer l'amour : comment le patriarcat sabote les relations hétérosexuelles " de Mona Chollet, éditions La Découverte https://www.placedeslibraires.fr/livre/9782355221743-reinventer-l-amour-comment-le-patriarcat-sabote-les-relations-heterosexuelles-mona-chollet/"A propos d'amour" de bell hooks (les minuscules sont le choix de l'autrice), éditions Divergences https://www.placedeslibraires.fr/livre/9791097088514-a-propos-d-amour-bell-hooks/ Podcasts"Le coeur sur la table", de Victoire Tuaillon, Solène Moulin, Naomi Titti, Diane Jean (Binge Audio), avec aussi les hors séries de Ovidie et Tancrède Ramonet "La dialectique du calbute sale" et "Les ex de François" de Judith Duportail https://www.binge.audio/podcast/le-coeur-sur-la-table"Mansplaining", de Thomas Messias (Slate), épisode enregistré en public au Paris Podcast Festival avec Marie Sauvion de Télérama, Anaïs Bordages et Marie Telling de Peak TV, et l'humoriste Laurent Sciamma (dont je vous recommande chaudement les spectacles) https://www.slate.fr/audio/mansplaining/la-recherche-de-modeles-masculins-dans-les-fictions L'extrait où Laurent Sciamma propose un monde où les hommes hétéros consacrent autant de temps à sauver la planète qu'ils en consacrent au foot. https://twitter.com/Louisa_A/status/1296444294883086336 Films, documentaires, série"Préliminaires" sur Arte : "À l'ère des réseaux sociaux, le premier baiser a laissé place à des pratiques plus crues, véritables rites de passage vers l'âge adulte.

    Jodi Kantor and Megan Twohey are the New York Times reporters who broke the Harvey Weinstein story. For five months -- perpetually in danger of losing the scoop -- they cultivated and cajoled sources ranging from the Weinsteins’ accountant to Ashley Judd. The article that emerged on October 5th, 2017, was a level-headed and impeccably sourced exposé, whose effects continue to be felt around the world. Their conversation with Alec covers their reporting process, and moves on to a joint wrestling with Alec’s own early knowledge of one of the Weinstein allegations, and his ongoing friendship with accused harasser James Toback. The guests ask Alec questions about the movie industry’s ethics about sex and “the casting couch.” Over a respectful and surprising half-hour, host and guests together talk through the many dilemmas posed by the #MeToo movement that Kantor and Twohey did so much to unleash.

    The Three Portals: Mastering Your Voiceover Representation Strategy Voiceover Representation Strategy BOSSes, Anne Ganguzza and Tom Dheere (The VO Strategist) tackle one of the biggest myths in the industry: that you need an agent to be successful. While representation is a vital part of a long-term voiceover representation strategy, it is only one of three "portals" to booking work. In this episode, Tom and Anne demystify the Business-to-Business (B2B) nature of the actor-agent relationship, the financial reality of why agents don't typically cast non-broadcast work, and how major social shifts have permanently altered how rosters are curated in 2026.     Chapter Summaries: The Three Portals of VO Work (02:17) Tom introduces his "Three Portals" framework for booking work: Representation (Agents/Managers), Online Casting Sites (P2P and free), and Self-Marketing (Direct outreach/SEO). He emphasizes that for most talent, representation is actually the smallest portal, while self-marketing and online casting provide the bulk of steady income. Why Agents Skip Non-Broadcast Work (06:00) There is a clear economic reason why agents focus on broadcast: Usage Fees. Tom explains that an agent taking 10% of a $250 audiobook finished hour ($25) isn't sustainable for their business. They are looking for the "rebuys" and licensed spots in radio, TV, and streaming that pay thousands in license fees, making their commission worthwhile. Agents vs. Managers: The Smoke-Filled Room (25:19) While agents primarily manage casting notices and file labeling, managers take a higher stake in your overall career development. A manager may take a percentage of all your income (typically 15-20%) because they are actively promoting you to other agents and "talking you up" in the industry's metaphorical VIP lounges. Democratized Casting and Diversity (33:45) The industry has undergone a massive shift toward authenticity and inclusion. Tom and Anne discuss how movements like Me Too and George Floyd changed casting specs "overnight." Today, rosters are smaller but more diverse, meaning talent must find their unique "X-factor" to fill a specific demographic or stylistic need on a roster. The "Agent Ready" Checklist (09:06) Before submitting, you must be "agent ready." This includes having a perfected website, a calibrated home studio, and a killer demo. If you cannot follow submission criteria to the letter (e.g., naming your file exactly as requested), the only thing an agent learns is that you cannot take direction. The Referrer: Casting Directors (29:32) Casting directors (CDs) don't represent you, but they are your biggest advocates. In 2026, the most effective way to get an agent is through a CD referral. By taking workshops and reading for CDs, you build a relationship that can lead to an introduction when an agent asks, "Who do you have that sounds like X?"     Top 10 Takeaways for Voice Actors: Agents Enhance, They Don't Create: An agent will make a successful career more successful, but they won't build one from scratch for you. It's a B2B Relationship: You don't work for your agent. You work with them as a business partner. Audit Your Portals: Balance your workload across all three portals (Rep, P2P, Direct) so you aren't devastated if one client or agent drops. Broadcast is the Goal for Reps: If you want an agent, focus on commercial, promo, and high-level gaming demos. Follow Directions Exactly: Agent submission is your first "direction" test. Failure to follow labeling or subject line rules results in an immediate "delete." Clean Up Your Socials: Agents and managers check your social media. Avoid inflammatory, whiny, or NDA-violating posts that could damage their reputation. Know the Rebuy: A major benefit of representation is their ability to track and negotiate "rebuys" or renewals for your spots. Diversity is an Asset: rosters in 2026 prize authenticity. Own your unique background and use it as a selling point. Utilize NAVA Benefits: Use National Association of Voice Actors (NAVA) resources for professional contract reviews before signing with a manager. Relationships Over Cold Emails: Focus on building face-to-face (or screen-to-screen) rapport with casting directors to earn referrals.

    C dans l'air du 19 mai 2026 - Bruel se défend, les plaintes s'accumulent...« De nouvelles plaintes pour viol » vont être déposées contre le chanteur Patrick Bruel « dans les jours qui viennent », a annoncé, ce mardi 19 mai, sur France Inter, Corinne Herrmann, avocate de l'animatrice Flavie Flament, qui accuse le chanteur de l'avoir droguée et violée en 1991, alors qu'elle avait 16 ans. L'animatrice faisait partie des femmes ayant témoigné dans Mediapart sous pseudonyme. Sur ce même média, elle s'exprime désormais à visage découvert : « Je parle pour la jeune fille que j'étais, je parle pour les autres femmes qui sont sorties du silence. »Au moins treize femmes ont déposé plainte contre Patrick Bruel, dont au moins cinq pour des faits de viol. Certains dossiers, d'abord classés sans suite, ont été rouverts et regroupés par le parquet de Nanterre. Une trentaine de femmes ont accusé dans la presse le chanteur de violences sexuelles.Patrick Bruel conteste l'ensemble des faits qui lui sont reprochés. Sur Instagram, dimanche, l'homme de 67 ans affirme n'avoir « jamais forcé, drogué ou manipulé » quiconque pour obtenir des relations non consenties. Patrick Bruel est présumé innocent. En ce moment, il continue de faire salle comble tous les soirs au théâtre et sera bientôt en tournée dans de nombreuses villes françaises, en Suisse, en Belgique et au Canada. Une pétition, soutenue par des associations féministes et qui avait recueilli plus de 20 000 signatures lundi après-midi, demande l'annulation de ces concerts le temps de l'enquête.L'affaire Patrick Bruel continue de prendre de l'ampleur, et le gouvernement a décidé de prendre publiquement la parole estimant, ce mardi, qu'il faut encourager les femmes victimes à parler, «même des dizaines d'années après». «On doit tous œuvrer à un système politique, médiatique, judiciaire qui permet aux femmes qui ont été victimes de violences sexistes et sexuelles de s'exprimer, de le dire sur la place publique et d'être entendus par la justice», a expliqué la porte-parole du gouvernement. «Je les écoute. Et c'est ensuite à la justice de retracer la véracité des faits», a ajouté Maud Bregeon.Alors, qui sont les plaignantes et de quoi accusent-elles Patrick Bruel ? Comment la justice mène-t-elle les enquêtes et gère-t-elle les plaintes de violences sexuelles ?

    « Niais », « sexiste », « mal écrit », abêtissant... les critiques à l'égard de la romance sont souvent virulentes. On aime mépriser ces histoires d'amour qui finissent toujours bien et railler au passage leurs lectrices ou spectatrices. Car si les hommes ont souvent un rôle important dans l'intrigue, les romances, en version papier ou filmée, sont principalement consommées par les femmes. Le genre est donc mal vu mais n'en est pas moins populaire. La romance booste carrément le secteur de l'édition. Selon l'institut Gfk, 12 millions d'exemplaires de livres catégorisés « romance » ont été vendus en France en 2024, pour un chiffre d'affaires estimé à 165 millions d'euros. Et parmi les auteurs internationaux les plus connus du genre, on retrouve Emily Henry, Ali Hazelwood, Morgane Moncomble, Sarah Rivens, Azra Reed, Kentin Jarno et Rachel Reid. Largement portée par les réseaux sociaux et des communautés comme BookTok, la romance s'est largement diversifiée depuis l'âge d'or des Harlequins pour toucher une autre génération de lectrices. « Romantasy », « dark romance », « new romance »,... le genre se réinvente et sort des clichés du roman à l'eau de rose.   Après le mouvement MeToo qui a requestionné les rapports hommes-femmes, comment expliquer le succès grandissant de la romance ? Amour, sexualité, pouvoir, que racontent ces histoires sur nos sociétés ? Et pourquoi les hommes sont si peu à en lire ou en regarder ?   Avec : • Christine Van Geen, professeure de philosophie à Rennes et autrice de Love Stories – Pourquoi les romances nous font du bien (Les arène, 2026) • Grâce Minlibé, écrivaine, blogueuse ivoirienne, autrice de Tristesse au paradis (Vallesse Éditions).   En fin d'émission, la chronique Voisins connectés d'Estelle Ndjandjo sur l'évolution des sociétés africaines mondialisées à travers les écrans, les réseaux sociaux et la technologie.  Dans ce nouvel épisode, Estelle nous parle d'amour ou plutôt d'une émission de rencontres en ligne qui fait beaucoup parler d'elle. Elle s'appelle Pop the Balloon — « éclatez le ballon » en français — un concept afro-américain qui s'exporte désormais en Afrique.  Programmation musicale :  ► Mais je t'aime - Grand Corps Malade, Camille Lellouche  ►  Mi-Amor - Ssaru, Trio Mio.

L'animatrice Flavie Flament a dévoilé hier avoir porté plainte pour viol à l'encontre de Patrick Bruel pour des faits qui seraient survenus quand elle avait 16 ans et que l'artiste conteste. Déjà visé par trois enquêtes en France et en Belgique, Patrick Bruel, par la voix de ses avocats, assure qu'il n'a "jamais drogué Flavie Flament, et ne lui a imposé aucun rapport" sexuel. Il bénéficie de la présomption d'innocence.Cette plainte vient s'ajouter à celle déjà portée par Daniela Elstner dont l'avocate est notre invitée. L'actuelle directrice d'Unifrance a déposé plainte contre Patrick Bruel pour tentative de viol et agression sexuelle le 12 mars 2026 pour dénoncer des faits qui auraient eu lieu en 1997.

    This book gets a 4.3 rating on Goodreads with more than 100,000 reviews. The facilitator for this meeting will be LeDon: ledonb@outlook.com. The Meeting link is at heading level 1. My review Come and walk with me as we step back into yesteryear. Let us turn to the year 1963.  That was the year that the book, “The Feminine Mystique” DB53797 by Betty Friedan was published and quickly became a bestseller. It would be hard to overstate the influence that book had on the culture of its time, as it urged society to reconsider the limits placed on women's education, careers, and sense of self. In many ways, the book helped start what we now think of as the modern feminist movement. It encouraged the growth of organizations like the National Organization for Women and gave strength to groups calling for workplace pay and equality, reproductive rights, and legal reform. Even now, its influence can still be felt, reflecting forward into groups like the Me-Too movement. Marie Bostwick is a New York Times and USA Today bestselling author. She faithfully brings back those times and those attitudes with her absorbing historical novel, “The Book Club for Troublesome  Women A  Novel”, DB130925 which is a warm, character-driven story about women, friendship, and personal growth, blending historical settings of the nineteen sixties with emotional, relatable moments. At its heart, it gently follows women as they discover their voices and begin to step more fully into their own sense of being, showing how even the smallest acts of courage can slowly reshape a life. As the story starts, Margaret Ryan, A housewife and mother of three has decided that she would like to start a book club. She decides to look at her neighbors and friends to see if she could find others who would like to be a part of her new book club. She first finds Vivian a former nurse and mother of six who thinks that she would like to be in the book club. She discovers, Bitsy a young woman who has given up her childhood wish to become a veterinarian to become a wife and home maker. She thinks that being part of a book club would be fun. Lastly, she finds Charlotte, A wife and mother who is also an aspiring artist.  She joins the club with the others. their first meeting is held at Margaret's home. She prepares the food for the club meeting with care, and as they sit together eating and talking These women all know that they have The American Dream resting in the palm of their hand, A husband, children, a home in the suburbs and a new car in the driveway. They all have been taught that they should be happy and satisfied with their lives. However, deep down inside of their subconscious mind there is a little voice that whispers, there should be more. At the first meeting, they enjoy a splendid evening drinking wine and visiting with each other, they decide that the first book that they will read for their new book club will be “The Feminine Mystique”, At  the next book club meeting, they find that they are all so excited by the concepts in Betty Friedan's book that they name themselves the Bettys. They do not realize that the power of the innovative ideas in this book will over the coming years slowly change the landscape of each of their lives. — Reading The Book “the Book Club for Troublesome Women” ,is more than just a pleasurable way to spend a few hours, it is a unique experience.

    Et si l'égalité femme-homme passait par l'égalité fille-garçon ? Dès leur plus jeune âge, les enfants sont confrontés à des stéréotypes de genre. C'est le fameux « rose pour les filles, bleu pour les garçons ». En termes de comportements également, on attend plus généralement d'une fille qu'elle soit sage, appliquée et douce et d'un garçon qu'il soit audacieux ou turbulent.

    Send us Fan MailA weird, uncomfortable realization kicked this conversation off: the United States still doesn't clearly guarantee equal rights for women at the constitutional level, and we've been sliding backward on core freedoms that shape everyday life. As dads of daughters, that lands differently, so we went searching for something more useful than another round of online debate.We propose a simple framework you can argue with, improve, or steal: five tiers of women's rights, from basic property and independence, to voting power, to equal rights under law, to full equity in real life. We talk through what tactics historically worked at each stage and why the strategies that helped early wins do not automatically unlock the last two tiers. That's where policies like the Equal Rights Amendment, equal pay enforcement, reproductive autonomy, paid parental leave and universal childcare stop being “nice to have” and become the definition of freedom.Then we take aim at what we call “mangoes” media, academia and NGOs. We're not saying they're useless, but we are saying they can't be the engine. The engine is organized labor power: voting blocs, strikes, and boycotts that hit the pocketbook, backed by coalitions that can keep pressure on year after year. We dig into Me Too as a case study, and we point to Iceland's women's strike as a reminder of what coordinated action can do.If you want a practical, strategic conversation about feminism, labor unions, gender equality and how change actually happens, hit play, then subscribe, share this with a friend, and leave a review.

    In this episode, Annika Brockschmidt sits down with Adrian Daub, Professor at Stanford University and author of the upcoming book What Tech Calls Governing. Daub provides a searing intellectual history of the vibe shift in Silicon Valley, dismantling the myth that the tech world has undergone a broad political transformation. Instead, Daub argues that we are witnessing the radicalization of a billionaire elite, a small class of men like Marc Andreessen, Elon Musk, and Peter Thiel, who have moved rightward not because of shifting data, but out of a reactionary backlash to post pandemic social pressures and the accountability of the MeToo and BLM movements. By examining the ideological bridge from 1960s counterculture to modern cyberculture, Daub reveals how the hippie to tech pipeline created a foundation for a brand of power that refuses to recognize itself as power, leading to a strange paradox where the world's most influential men consistently frame themselves as persecuted outsiders. The conversation dives deep into the specific ideologies driving today's tech giants, from René Girard's mimetic theory to the biohacking and eugenics adjacent subcultures of the ultra wealthy. Daub offers a brilliant critique of the current AI hype cycle, arguing that framing Artificial Intelligence as an unstoppable force of nature is a deliberate political maneuver designed to bypass regulation and democratic oversight. Beyond the policy, they discuss the revealing and often bizarre aesthetics of the tech elite, such as the AI generated gladiator imagery favored by aging billionaires, which Daub links to a historical fascist obsession with the idealized male form and ego. Looking forward, the duo explores the Palantir problem and the structural flaws in Silicon Valley's current political bets, while offering a preview of Daub's next project, Project 1933: Fascism Then and Now, which contextualizes our current moment within the darker chapters of 20th century history.

    Such a Pretty Picture: Andrea Leeb on Shattering Silence, Surviving Abuse, and Writing the Story She Swore She'd Never Tell

    "On the outside, I too looked like a pretty picture. Inside, I was dying. I had so much pain and shame and suffering. Pretending isn't enough to make it go away." — Andrea Leeb About This Episode Andrea Leeb spent decades building a life that looked perfect from the outside — nurse, attorney, MFA graduate, happily married. But behind that picture was a secret she carried since she was four years old. In this deeply honest conversation, Andrea tells Mike about her debut memoir Such a Pretty Picture, which chronicles her survival of childhood sexual abuse at the hands of her father, her complicated relationship with the mother who looked away, and the long road to finding her voice. She also talks about surviving the 2004 tsunami in Thailand, how the Me Too movement gave her the courage to finally write the story she'd sworn she'd never tell, and why healing is never a straight line. Andrea is donating all of her book royalties to the UCLA Rape Treatment Center and RAINN. Key Takeaways 1. She survived a tsunami — and it changed everything. In 2004, Andrea and her husband survived the Christmas Day tsunami in Thailand. That brush with death made her realize she needed to stop treating writing as a hobby and start treating it as a calling. 2. She swore she'd never write this story. For years, Andrea outlined the book and then told herself no. She wrote fiction, essays, anything else. It wasn't until her father passed away in 2017 — the same year the Me Too movement began — that she finally felt free to tell the truth. 3. Her mother caught the abuse and went blind. When Andrea was four and a half, her mother walked in on the abuse, screamed, passed out, and developed hysterical blindness for a month. Andrea blamed herself. Her mother never left her father. 4. Forgiveness and letting go aren't the same thing. Andrea never forgave her father, but she did let go of the anger — a distinction she says was essential to writing the book without creating monsters. She ultimately forgave her mother. 5. The title came from her editor, not from her. Andrea struggled with the title through every draft. Her publisher found a line in the book where Andrea's mother looks at a childhood photo and says, "Such a pretty picture" — a perfect encapsulation of the beautiful surface hiding the chaos underneath. 6. Pretending works until it doesn't. Andrea kept her secret for decades and appeared fine — until a stranger touched her on the subway and she unraveled. Her message to survivors: you can heal, but you have to get help. Pretending won't make it go away. 7. She's giving away every dollar. All royalties from Such a Pretty Picture go to the UCLA Rape Treatment Center and RAINN. What started as a mission to help one person has grown into full-time advocacy, including board work and policy efforts.

As a feminist, she celebrated the movement; as a mother, she worried: "How am I gonna raise these boys to be good?" This tension launched Ruth on a quest to understand modern American boyhood and what's not working.

    Eric Swalwell suspended his campaign for governor of California following multiple allegations of sexual harassment and assault. On this week's On the Media, how two social media stars worked to make these allegations public. Plus, what it will take for Hungary to rebuild a robust independent press after years of crackdowns under Orban.  [01:00] Brooke speaks with Melanie Mason, POLITICO's California Bureau Chief, to trace the “whisper network,” involving an education policy influencer with over 1.4 million followers, that exposed California Rep. Eric Swalwell's history of sexual assault and resulted in his resignation from Congress and exit from the California gubernatorial race. Plus, what this reckoning reveals about the legacy of #MeToo.   [18:33] Host Brooke Gladstone sat down with Ivan Nagy, a political journalist and Delacorte Fellow at the Columbia Journalism Review from Hungary, days before the Hungarian election to discuss covering the lead-up, and the lasting damage inflicted on the press by Viktor Orban that will inevitably carry over into the next administration.  [34:50] Brooke calls up Ivan Nagy again after Hungary's election last weekend to discuss what it was like on the ground in the aftermath of Peter Magyar's historic win over Viktor Orban, and what the new Prime Minister could mean for the media.  Further reading / watching: “‘If Someone Lit Up a Match, the Place Would Explode,'” by Ivan L.

As of this year, the job is now covered by SAG-AFTRA, the labor union that represents actors.Their growing presence on set has led to more demand for intimacy coordinator training programs. NPR visited one of those programs in downtown Los Angeles, and met an assistant director  and a porn actor both training for the job.For sponsor-free episodes of Consider This, sign up for Consider This+ via Apple Podcasts or at plus.npr.org.

    Two members of Congress stepped down over allegations of sexual misconduct from former staffers on Tuesday —Texas Republican Rep. Tony Gonzales and California Democratic Rep. Eric Swalwell. (Swalwell is also accused of sexual assault, and other women have come forward. He has denied the allegations.) Over and over, we see powerful people in politics — typically men — use their power to take advantage of others in dangerous and abusive ways. So, why does this keep happening? And what about Congress might be making it more difficult for survivors to come forward? To find out, we spoke to Moira Donegan. She's a columnist covering gender and politics at The Guardian.And in headlines, a new report says the global economic outlook is not looking great, American conservatives take a blow on the international stage, and President Trump responds to a Federal Emergency Management Agency official who claims that he teleported to a Waffle House.Show Notes: Check out Moira's work – theguardian.com/profile/moira-donegan Call Congress – 202-224-3121 Subscribe to the What A Day Newsletter – https://tinyurl.com/y4y2e9jy What A Day – YouTube – https://www.youtube.com/@whatadaypodcast Follow us on Instagram – https://www.instagram.com/crookedmedia/ For a transcript of this episode, please visit crooked.com/whataday
