The U.S. has strongly cautioned Israel against targeting Iran's nuclear facilities and oil fields in a possible retaliatory strike for the 181 ballistic missiles Tehran launched last week. On the Haaretz Podcast, strategic and intelligence expert and Haaretz columnist Yossi Melman argues that such targets should be “off limits and out of bounds,” and not only because of the American objections.  Israel should limit its response to military installations such as the “depots of long range missiles threatening Israel, the headquarters of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps and communication command centers and air defense systems,” says Melman. He adds that hitting Iran's oil fields and potentially paralyzing the world oil market - if Iran strikes back at Saudi oil fields - “is a very dangerous game.” Also on the podcast, Melman discusses the deep contrast between the “colossal failure” of Israel's vaunted intelligence services before October 7 and the way they have “salvaged their image and reputation” in recent months in their penetration of both Hezbollah and Iran.   “Even within the Israeli intelligence community, they cannot explain this huge, huge gap between their performance on October 7 and their performance during the war,” he says.  At the same time, he warns, “we need to put it into perspective. Israeli intelligence is excellent, but at the end of the day - it is just a tool” meant to support war goals and diplomatic efforts. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This week's guest features Eileen O'Brien, who has an impressive background in show business and film festivals, and she's also known for her work with Kevin Kay and his team at 30 Rock in the mid-80s, creating cue cards for some of the most iconic shows on television. Eileen is the subject of the short documentary Cue Card Girl, which can be found in many places, including YouTube. The documentary tells many stories about Eileen, focusing mainly on her time with Saturday Night Live. But that's not all she did; Eileen was on call every night for Late Night with David Letterman. While Kevin Kay usually did Dave's cards, whenever a second cue card person was necessary for the show, Eileen was called into action, and that happened many times over the years. She and Mike have a delightful conversation about some of the things she has seen in her career, and she talks at length about how much she enjoyed working with Late Night during those unbelievable years. One of the main highlights was how she would hold cards for Calvert DeForest, otherwise known as Larry ‘Bud' Melman. --- The Letterman Podcast is proudly sponsored by *Hello-Deli.com*, where you can still find official Late Show with David Letterman merchandise.

Dopo la Pixar e la Laika, ora è giunto il turno di un'altra grande casa di produzione di film animati.

Poiché lassù c'è un omino seduto sulla luna intento a pescare e a narrare nuove storie. Alex, Marty, Gloria e Melman tornano con una seconda delirante avventura.

Steeds minder weidevogels. Bodemdaling. Oprukkende exotische rivierkreeften. Agrarische bedrijven onder druk. In veenweidegebieden komen veel uitdagingen samen. Heeft het veenweidegebied nog toekomst? Anthonie spreekt daarover met twee ‘polderjongens': Dick Melman en Nico Jonker. Dick is gepensioneerd onderzoeker agrarisch natuurbeheer en kenner van slootkantvegetaties. Nico werkt als ecoloog bij de provincie Noord-Holland aan natuurverbindingen. In hun vrije tijd doen ze veel praktisch veldonderzoek rond Spaarnwoude, een open poldergebied tussen Haarlem en Amsterdam. Ze doen belangwekkende ontdekkingen over het samenspel tussen bodem, water, weidevogels en hun voedsel. In deze aflevering vertellen ze over hun inzichten, de samenwerking met boeren en het grote belang van goed ecologisch veldonderzoek. Welke lessen zien Dick en Nico voor de gebiedsprocessen die gaande zijn in het kader van de provinciale plannen voor het landelijk gebied? En waarom lukt het maar niet om weidevogelpopulaties in stand te houden? Moeten we daar eigenlijk wel koste wat kost naar streven? De leestips van Nico zijn ‘Gesloten vanwege stikstof' van Jan Douwe van der Ploeg en ‘De zilvermeeuw' van Kees Camphuysen. De leestip van Dick is ‘De onderwerping' van Philipp Blom. We verwijzen in deze aflevering naar aflevering 30 met Eline Schothorst over ecologie in het agrarisch onderwijs. Wat vind je van deze aflevering? Laat ons dat gerust weten!

Israel's reality transformed overnight this weekend and what looks like a major war is unfolding. Events are progressing rapidly, so in this week's Haaretz podcast, editor in chief of Haaretz, Aluf Benn, and Haaretz senior analyst Yossi Melman explain in conversation with Allison Kaplan Sommer how a country that has prided itself with having the best intelligence in the world was hit hard by an unprecedented surprise attack from the Gaza Strip. Benn says the Hamas orchestrated attack – that has already claimed the lives of over 600 Israelis - was a "total surprise," and that "there was no intelligence indicating anything remotely like this." Even though there was a sense that Israel's enemies would take advantage of its inner rifts, "none of the warnings included anything similar to what happened yesterday." According to Benn, "This is the worst blow to Israel in any war, since 1948, and of any terrorist attacks inside Israel or abroad. In 1973 Israel was taken by surprise, but the fighting took place far away from civilians. Now this is first and foremost an attack against civilians, and for the first time we have dozens of military prisoners of war and civilians taken hostage in Gaza. People are desperately trying to find out what happened to their family members. We know people, friends, that have children who are missing or dead. It's a very sad, unprecedented situation for all of us." Melman addresses the "huge failure" of Israel's Intelligence. "When you talk to people in the intelligence community, they are confused, they are puzzled, they don't know what happened. They have no explanation," he says. "Certainly it was a huge failure, Israel has been prided with having the best intelligence in the world, and the intelligence failed. For many Israelis, what happened on Saturday, 50 years and one day after the Yom Kippur War started, is reminiscent of the same failure. But there is a big difference: Before the war in 1973, the intelligence was there. Israel had a lot of pieces of intelligence but didn't know how to read it or didn't want to analyze it in the correct way. This time there was nothing." The Gaza Strip is an area Israel was supposedly watching very closely, so having hundreds of militants cross into Israel on a holiday morning was unimaginable. "It's a failure of the military intelligence, it's a failure of the domestic security service - the Shin Bet – both the organizations have the technological means to listen to the other side, to recruit agents for human intelligence. It's a huge machine of intelligence gathering that didn't function." Looking forward, both Benn and Melman think the wounds will take years to heal. "It's going to take time for the public to realize what happened," Benn says. "We are talking about hundreds of bereaved families, hundreds of hostage families, it's still unthinkable. I'm hearing horrible stories from people I know."    See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The Brooklyn Badass (ft. Alec Melman)OPENING QUOTE:“Being adaptable and being patient, that'll answer for those feelings of frustration. If you can hold on long enough, good things happen.”-Alec MelmanGUEST BIO:Alec Melman is co-founder and CEO of Gotham Artists, one of the most successful and respected talent agencies in the country. Founded in 2009, Gotham is known for its innovative approach and unique roster of talent that stretches from keynote speakers to musicians, stand up comics and more. For 14 years, Alec has helped guide and grow Gotham every step of the way through intense and dramatic changes in the industry.Links:BioLinkedInCORE TOPICS + DETAILS:[5:33] - The Extra InchLittle things that add up to big impactTo Alec, explaining Gotham's success as a bureau is simple: customer service. Gotham is simply “a little faster, a little nicer, and a little sharper.” Things like getting back to people quickly makes them stand out relative to the inefficiencies of some other bureaus, and that's led Gotham to grow at the astonishing rate it has.[10:36] - The Agency-Speaker ConnectionWhen to go exclusive and how to know it's time for a changeAlec discusses how most of Gotham's exclusive partnerships with speakers grow out of existing relationships. He expresses how bureaus want to go exclusive with speakers they've worked with before, having booked 7-10 dates before even broaching the exclusive conversation. How does this apply to speakers? Be patient. Building those bureau relationships in your non-exclusive days will pay dividends down the road.[28:39] - Ongoing Connection in the Digital EraWhy Alec is a believer in virtual keynotesAlec believes that people who don't believe in virtual keynotes and other disruptive technologies fail to understand them. They're not the “redheaded stepchild” of in-person — they're a unique opportunity in their own right. He uses the example of a $100,000 speaking budget. An in-person event would spend that budget on one or two massive names, one big splash. That has value, of course. But so does spreading that budget out over 12 monthly installments, bringing in smaller names who can cover a range of topics. Virtual isn't better or worse than in-person, it's simply a separate opportunity.[30:33] - The Bureau of LessHow doing less for speakers helps Gotham serve them betterAlec approaches every decision for his clients using the “triangle of decision-making.” Is it profitable? Is it fun? Does it match our long-term vision? If the answer to all of those questions isn't an enthusiastic “yes,” then it's not right. “I don't want to take our eyes off the prize and start focusing on ancillary activities,” he says. “If the opportunity knocks, we'll be ready for it, but I'm not going out of my way and trying to make that materialize.In this way, Gotham serves its clients by doing a few things very, very well, rather than trying to do 100 things somewhat competently. Gotham's focus, not their breadth, has allowed them to grow and excel.RESOURCES:[1:46] About Gotham ArtistsFollow Alec Melman:LinkedInFollow Josh Linkner:FacebookLinkedInInstagramTwitterYouTubeABOUT MIC DROP:Hear from the world's top thought leaders and experts, sharing tipping point moments, strategies, and approaches that led to their speaking career success.

EPISODE 228: COUNTDOWN WITH KEITH OLBERMANN A-Block (1:42) SPECIAL COMMENT: Trump may have done the one thing that would force the ENTIRE Republican party to repudiate him: The Israelis Intelligence Corps and the Mossad reportedly think Donald Trump has damaged the security of the state of Israel. “Top brass in the Israeli defense establishment,” writes the intelligence and strategic affairs correspondent Yossi Melman in the Israeli newspaper Ha'aretz, “are concerned that secret documents seized from (Trump) include material whose exposure has damaged Israel's security.” Melman quotes two senior Israeli defense officials, one from the Mossad and the other from the Intelligence Corps as saying, quote: “It's an absolutely reasonable possibility that some of the documents are about Israel and its capabilities, maybe even its nuclear program,” unquote. And reading between the lines, Melman and his sources never once mention the story of Trump reading the details of the Mark Milley plan to attack IRAN to Mark Meadows' ghost-writers, so presumably what Israeli Intelligence fears is that Trump has damaged other elements of their nation's security. So ANOTHER fault line opens between Trump and Republican Sacred Cows: Trump versus Troops, Trump versus Law And Order, Trump Versus… Israel. Damaging the 21st Century Republican Party's supposed allegiance to Israel is the most sacred of its cows because it is viscerally important to the party's fanatical religious base. Polling from as recently as 2018 confirms that at least HALF of the Evangelicals don't give two actual spits about ACTUAL Jews or the NATION of Israel. It is simply a tentpole belief of their cult that before all the bible-thumpers can go to Heaven in a rapture, all the Jews have to be in Jerusalem and be converted or die. The Republicans pretend allegiance to Israel in order to maintain ownership of the Evangelicals who need Jerusalem preserved so they can be converted when the alarm goes off at Rapture O'Clock. Plus Pence takes a Nikki Haley style Trump-Endangered-The-Troops climbdown, Ryan Goodman thinks Smith has a backup play in New Jersey just in case things come acropper in the Florida trial, Judge Cannon has exactly 14 days of active Judge Stuff, Trump turned down a chance to make all this stuff go away. And the story of the British TV producer who shouted "President Trump? Are you ready to go to jail?" during his creation of a false victory narrative at a Miami Cuban bakery after the arraignment Tuesday, takes a strange twist. The guy who got in her face and called her a "Stupid B----" has self-identified, and he's a former member of the Trump Government AND was involved in image polishing for Putin in America, Michael R. Caputo. B-BLOCK (18:20) POSTSCRIPTS TO THE NEWS: To finish off the Michael Caputo story and his world-class exit quote from the Trump Regime in 2020. Plus the Archives are mad at Trump AGAIN. Lindsey Graham makes another threat. And Fani Willis officially says she isn't postponing anything. (24:45) THE WORST PERSONS IN THE WORLD: Elon Musk wants America to have a dictator who'll kill everybody; The New York Times and Fox News share dishonors over Trump's Tuesday; and why do all these supposedly anti-pedophilia right wingers say such creepy things about kids and kids' characters and sex? Why did Ben Shapiro talk about Bert and Ernie wearing "assless chaps"?

Melman's siblings Jarrod and Molly are both part of the Lettuce Entertain You Restaurants team. The guys share breaking news and say that Lettuce has just opened their first restaurant in Florida. It is Aba, a Mediterranean restaurant that brings cooking influences from the Mediterranean, including Israel, Lebanon, Turkey and Greece. Also the group is opening RPM Italian in West Palm Beach and Summer House in Orlando. In Chicago in 2023 Melman talks about the new collaboration between Tao Group Hospitality. The partnership will bring a new private members club. The guys also talk about the Lettuce loyalty program that has been around for more than three decades. Now the program is free through the app. Recently they announced that Lettuce has partnered with DoorDash for a first of its kind loyalty program. The program powered by DoorDash will now allow guests to receive loyalty points and redeem gift cards for takeout and delivery. Melman's goal when he became President was to use tech to transcend hospitality in dining rooms, bringing hospitality and technology together. Melman says they are in the process of switching over our general ledger, HR solution and more. Melman shares how the company continues to keep things going well with all of the expansion. They have been consistent on expansion over the last thirty years and said that the team has played a role in the growth.

En este episodio hablamos con el empresario Lucas Melman. Hablamos sobre las imperiosa necesidad de que las empresas tomen un rol activo y creativo en temas de bienestar integral de sus empleados, pero también de su comunidad y su medio ambiente. La creatividad radica en tomar las múltiples necesidades y objetivos, que bajo los paradigmas actuales pueden estar en contradicción, y encontrar la forma de articularlos para que haya congruencia y retroalimentación positiva entre los mismos. Betterfly ha encontrado un modelo escalable que combina la tecnología, la empatía y el propósito para cambiar la forma en la que pensamos en “Corporate Wellness” y “Responsabildiad Social”. Hablamos también de la vulnerabilidad como prerrequisito para el liderazgo y las distintas formas en la que la tecnología, pero también la comunidad, puede empoderar al individuo a transformar sus hábitos. Lucas Melman es graduado de la Universidad Católica de Río de Janeiro, con especializaciones en Harvard y Stanford. Tiene amplia experiencia en gestión de empresas de alto crecimiento como iFood y Gympass. Ha trabajado en Brasil, Colombia, Argentina, Chile y México, país donde hoy es Country Manager de Betterfly.

Stephen Winer was there at the very beginning of Late Night. And some of his contributions to the show as a writer endured the entire Letterman run until 2015, such as the bit he wrote for a viewer mail segment where Dave threw something into the open window scape behind him, triggering what would become an iconic glass breaking sound effect. He was also one of the men who discovered Calvert DeForest, better known in some circles as Larry 'Bud' Melman. And while those two facts alone cement him in the annuals of Letterman lore, there is so much more to talk about. Stephen and Mike have a delightful conversation about how the show was built, and behind the scenes stories of what many call the greatest talk show in history during its infancy. They go deeper into comedy, and talk about one of Stephen's other most important contributions to entertainment, working directly with another titan of clever irreverence, Robert Klein. The love for the craft of comedy writing is evident in this conversation, and anyone who is an enthusiast of the discipline will surely love this episode.

So for all who have been waiting with baited breath to find out how Steve and Shecky met, fear not! That question will be answered, along with others. What was one of the code names used for Dave? In this episode it's revealed, and the answer might surprise you. What is the word Steve used in his interview that got him hired? You must ingest this episode to find out. Mike also gets to express his appreciation to this giant in the world of comedy, writing, and of course Letterman. Part 2 has a lot of fun, laughter and inspiration.

There is Larry 'Bud' Melman talk as well as a shout out to Madeline Smithberg, and a very nice dialog about Steve's twin brother Mark who passed away in 2012.

  5 Excellent Pieces of Advice That Most People Ignore It's easy to find someone to tell you what you want to hear, but your true ally is one who tells you what you need to learn.   1. Take time to know yourself. "Know thyself" said Aristotle. When you know who you are, you can be wise about your goals, your dreams, your standards, your convictions. Knowing who you are allows you to live your life with purpose and meaning. 2. A narrow focus brings big results. The number one reason people give up so fast is because they tend to look at how far they still have to go instead of how far they have come. But it's a series of small wins that can give us the most significant success. 3. Show up fully. Don't dwell on the past, and don't daydream about the future, but concentrate on showing up fully in the present moment.   4. Don't make assumptions. If you don't know the situation fully, you can't offer an informed opinion.   5. Be patient and persistent. Life is not so much what you accomplish as what you overcome. 

Defense may win championships, but offense wins in business. Are you playing offense?

As Lettuce Entertain You Enterprises (LEYE) marks its fiftieth year in business, president RJ Melman doesn't see any signs of slowing down. The multiconcept operator has over 150 restaurants in several states across the country ranging from fast-casual to fine-dining and, during the pandemic, brought some closed concepts back as virtual restaurants. Melman, however, does not think virtual restaurants are the future of the industry despite the Chicago-based company's massive success with them over the past few years. LEYE is a family business for Melman. His father Rich co-founded the company back in 1971 and RJ has been with the company all his life, learning from his father. It's one of the reasons he thinks brick-and-mortar units are still the way of the future. Earlier this week, LEYE announced it would be opening Aba, a concept already in Austin and Chicago, in South Florida – something Melman hints at in our podcast, which was recorded before the news broke. That expansion marks the company's first Florida unit and is set to open in 2022.
