In this episode, Hanson explains what Trump is really signaling: that his strategy was always about making peace through strength — not appeasement. And now that Putin is throwing that opportunity away, the world sees who truly wants war. “ I think what Vladimir Putin thinks, that he's going to continue the war; continue the terror campaign; get greater concessions from the Europeans, the Americans, and the Ukrainians; and move the battle lines a little bit to the west. And I think he's sorely mistaken. He's misreading Donald Trump.  “If I was Vladimir Putin, I would cut a deal today. And then, I would resume natural gas and oil shipments to Europe. I would open the economy back up. And I would tell the Russian people what you did.  … And that's a lot better—it's not a good scenario, but it's a lot better than another Stalingrad or Verdun or Somme for the next two years for Russia.”

Deals don't collapse at closing—they fall apart long before.   In this short clip, Vinney (Smile

As Labour panic and freak out over Runcorn and the Locals, is Starmer drawing the wrong conclusions from the votes? Is “Reform are right, don't vote for them” the best they can do? Or should they pick more fights with the Right? Plus, what if this newfangled populism isn't so new after all? We talk to Quinn Slobodian, author of Hayek's Bastards: The Neoliberal Roots of the Populist Right, about why the shape-shifting Right are so hard to lay a glove on. And in the Extra Bit: Does VE Day hit differently now Europe is full of fascists, enthusiastically supported by the US President?

#DEI: THE MISREADING OF 1965. PETER BERKOWITZ, HOOVER. 1908

Annoying text responses

What if the deepest truth of reality lies not in substances or isolated things, but in the pure relationality that connects everything? John Vervaeke is joined by renowned scholar Douglas Hedley to explore James Filler's groundbreaking work "Heidegger, Neoplatonism, and the History of Being." John and Douglas examine the profound implications of viewing ultimate reality as fundamentally relational rather than substantial, uncovering significant convergences between Heidegger's later thought and the ancient Neoplatonic tradition. The dialogue goes into how Neoplatonic metaphysics offers potent solutions to the philosophical dilemmas posed by modernity and postmodernity, and why the notion of strong transcendence is essential yet challenging in contemporary thought. Douglas enriches the discourse with reflections on imagination, symbolism, and theological significance within the Neoplatonic heritage. Douglas Hedley is Professor of the Philosophy of Religion at Cambridge University. He was educated at Keble College, Oxford and at the University of Munich, and has previously taught at Nottingham University. He is the Director of the Cambridge Centre for the Study of Platonism and co-chair of the Platonism and Neoplatonism section of the American Academy of Religion. Dr Hedley's work centers on concepts of imagination, violence, and the sublime, and he has published widely, from early modern philosophy—particularly the Cambridge Platonists—to Coleridge. He is the Principal Investigator for the AHRC grant on The Cambridge Platonists at the Origins of Enlightenment: Texts, Debates, and Reception (1650-1730), and is co-editor of the Series Studies in Philosophical Theology.

[SEGMENT 2-1] Opportunity and Responsibility 1 I want to talk about opportunity and responsibility for the remainder of the hour… Tom Homan tweeted that BIG things are coming on the border issue soon, and not just mass deportations. I can hardly wait for him and other people Trump has tasked with changing this crooked government go to work…   Rogan no longer a fan of Obama McConnell said that there would be no recess appointments, and then he went on to blank out like Biden. Joe Biden authorized Ukraine to use the missiles we sold them for long-range launches. So much for the peaceful transition of power. The cabal wants a war started under Trump. Ms Universe is from Denmark, and she is stunning   How can you not continue to relish in the election victory. Despite Democrats ongoing efforts to cheat in NC and PA for examples, most of us are still basking the glow of our victory.   The election of Trump was a reprieve for America. God in His infinite wisdom gave America and the world one more chance. As I heard a pastor from Prestonwood Church in Dallas say, we now have an opportunity and a responsibility. What do you plan to do? Churches are losing membership daily. You go once a week to your church, and if you're really pious may 2-3 times. But you listen to me DAILY, many of you. And while I don't pretend to be a church or a pastor, I follow God's word. I tell people about my FLAWED walk with God. I tell you that I'm not perfect, and neither are you. God knows that, in case you thought it was a secret. Why do I think God blesses me? First, because I'm me. It's that simple. The blessings don't always feel like blessings, but they are.  [SEGMENT 2-2] Opportunity and Responsibility 2   Second, because I do let people know that I'm a Christ follower, and I encourage them to try it. God speaks to me, and He speaks through me. I have no idea why He gives me my topics and ideas, and I have no idea of the impact of my words. It's not my responsibility to know that. I do know that people are impacted by my work. And there is a part of me that longs for the adulation that comes from it, because I'm human. But it's not ego anymore that drives that. It's the fact that I think powerful messages need to be heard by many. Look at the hearts and minds who were changed in the last election cycle. 10 million more people voted for Trump from 2016 to 2020 and he LOST. Cheated out of what was rightfully his. Another 3-4 million crossed over in 2024. What is our plan for 2028? How many people will we bring to Conservatism? Look at the carnage of the Democrats that we discuss routinely. If you picked just one, you can find thousands of people devastated by their policies. The border invasion for example. How many Americans are impacted negatively, particularly those who have suffered violent crimes. And what of the economic toll? And what of our children? Democrats don't want them anywhere near God, so they destroy families and allow our children to make life-altering decisions about their bodies that are barbaric to say the least. Thousands of children have been impacted, and they will have lifelong mental issues because of it.   We have an opportunity and a responsibility. God told me to start getting people signed up for recurring donations to support my efforts. He didn't tell me to pull a Creflo Dollar and buy a $70 million jet…YET! But he told me to start getting ready. I have no idea what for. Does He want me out doing more in front of people? I'm not sure, but I am getting ready. The 14 people who are part of Supporters on Spreaker have no idea what their participation means, but I see them as fulfilling my prophecy. The 50 people in Back Stage Club, you are fulfilling God's prophecy to me. We've been given an opportunity, and now we have a responsibility to move our message forward. God has given us 4 years to do it…    [SEGMENT 2-3] Fani and Tish   I told you that Trump would win, but I didn't give one of the MAIN reasons. I've discussed the topic before, and while I was forceful in what I said, I think some people might have forgotten it. You see, I was fired for calling a skank a skank. And I referred to Blasey-Ford as a skank. And while I detest Leftist “women” for reason most of America and the world detest them, the ones I detest the most are black. YOU'RE WELCOME I speak for millions in saying what you know to be true. Black Leftist women are by far the worst. [X] SB – Fox News on SCOTUS J6 ruling It seems Democrats Fani Willis and Letitia James are clinging to their cases against Donald Trump like barnacles on a sinking ship, even as the tide of political reality shifts. Special Counsel Jack Smith, sensing the winds of change, is already planning his exit—opting for self-preservation over a fight he can't win. But Willis and James? They appear intent on venturing into the proverbial haunted house, oblivious to the danger of the new sheriff in town. #5 - Charlamagne Urges Fani Willis To Drop Trump Case “Nobody's going to have your back.” “If I was Fani Willis, I wouldn't still be pursuing that case.

‘Climate change' according to Dr Camelia Dewan, is used as a term to attract donor funding, but to what extent does this funding actually help those in need? In this fascinating episode on the Bengal Delta, we take a deep dive into the world of NGOs and explore how short-term projects in the development industry can have a negative effect on the communities most effected by infrastructure intervention. With microcredits known for their high interest rates, the repayment for these is very high, which can result in social stigmas (and the marrying off of daughters) for the poorest of women who are unable to repay their weekly debts. To learn more, check out Dr Dewan's book on ‘Misreading the Bengal Delta'.

Dr Camelia Dewan is an environmental anthropologist focusing on the anthropology of development. She holds a PhD in Social Anthropology and Environment from the University of London (SOAS/Birkbeck) and is an Associate Senior Lecturer in Cultural Anthropology examining the socio-environmental effects of shipbreaking in Bangladesh.

It's a data goldmine!But recently, I've been reminded that adopting metrics can be a dangerous game, especially if we become too obsessed with them. Let's explore four key dangers of metrics and how to navigate them effectively.The Perils of Poorly Chosen Metrics1. Measuring the Wrong ThingsI'm currently working with an insurance company that's fallen into this trap. They're tracking the number of quotes sent out rather than actual sales. Consequently, they're making decisions that boost quote numbers at the expense of real conversions.How does this happen? It's called the McNamara fallacy - our tendency to measure what's easy to measure and, over time, assume it's the only metric that matters.Be wary of this trap. While measuring something is better than nothing, avoid placing too much weight on easily accessible metrics. They're just part of the equation, and the metrics you can't easily measure (like lifetime customer value) are often the most important.2. Focusing on Short-Term GainsQuarterly targets are common, but they can lead to dangerously short-term thinking. If you're fixated on this quarter's sales target, you might prioritize costly customer acquisition over more sustainable strategies like customer retention and word-of-mouth recommendations.3. Misreading the DataWhen we focus on a small number of short-term metrics, it's easy to misinterpret what's happening. You might miss seasonal variations or fail to see that the overall picture is healthier than it appears.I once had a client who pulled a feature after just three days because it caused a dip in a single metric at launch. There was no time to understand the full impact or whether it was having positive effects in other areas. They jumped to conclusions based on limited data.4. Overreacting to ChangesMetrics should guide our decision-making, not dictate it. Our actions shouldn't be reduced to simplistic if/then statements (If [metric] goes up = good. If [metric] goes down = bad).We need to make informed judgment calls, take calculated risks, and have the nerve to give ideas time to succeed. For instance, it's common for website changes to receive initial negative reactions as they disrupt users' procedural knowledge. But if you give people time to adjust, the results often improve.How to Use Metrics EffectivelySo, how do we harness the power of metrics while avoiding these pitfalls? Here's my advice:Use a range of metrics: Work with your team to establish metrics that encompass conversion, usability, and engagement. This gives you a more complete picture.Allow time before reacting: Agree upfront on how long you'll wait before responding to data after implementing changes. Expect short-term negative impacts and plan accordingly.Align metrics with overall goals: Challenge short-term metrics by asking whether they truly support your organization's broader objectives.The Path ForwardImplementing these strategies isn't always smooth sailing. Many organizations are deeply entrenched in their thinking, and changing established metrics often falls outside my direct control.However, by laying these foundations early, we create a reference point for when things go awry. We can revisit these conversations and adjust course as needed.Remember, metrics are powerful tools, but they're not the end goal. Use them wisely, and they'll guide you toward meaningful improvements and sustainable success.What are your experiences with metrics? Have you encountered similar challenges? I'd love to hear your experiences! Drop me a reply.

Here we look at the response of Nehemiah's people to God's Word. Misreading the Word to define what it means to be a Christian can be problematic. We have to come back to who Jesus is and what it really means to be a Christian. To support this ministry financially, visit: https://www.oneplace.com/donate/1417/29

Taking up a difficult passage of Scripture, Alastair, Andrew, and Matt consider the incident in which Jacob deceives Isaac into giving him the blessing. Multiple respected theologians bring solid principles to bear on the interpretation of this reading, and come to very different conclusions. What is to be done? Is lying always and everywhere wrong? Was Jacob justified in his ruse? And in the process Alastair reveals some striking parallels between this story and that of King David. Full show notes at www.merefidelity.com.

Get to the Point

In Black Shakespeare: Reading and Misreading Race (Cambridge University Press, 2022), Ian Smith urges readers of Othello, The Merchant of Venice, and Hamlet to develop “racial literacy.” Through both wide social influences and specific professional pressures, Shakespearean critics have been taught to ignore, suppress, and explain away the racial thinking of the plays, a set of evasion strategies that inevitably have political and social ramifications in the contemporary United States. As Ian writes in the introduction, Black Shakespeare is intended to “shift the focus to conditions that shape readers, inform their epistemologies, and influence their reading practices” (3). Today's guest is Ian Smith, Professor of English at the University of Southern California. Ian is the author of the previous monograph, Race and Rhetoric in the Renaissance: Barbarian Errors (Palgrave, 2009), as well as one of the most important articles in early modern literary criticism of the last twenty years, “Othello's Black Handkerchief.” Ian is the current President of the Shakespeare Association of America. John Yargo is a Visiting Assistant Professor of Environmental Humanities at Boston College. He holds a Ph.D. in English from the University of Massachusetts Amherst. His specializations are early modern literature, the environmental humanities, and critical race studies. His dissertation explores early modern representations of environmental catastrophe, including William Shakespeare's The Tempest, Aphra Behn's Oroonoko, and John Milton's Paradise Lost. He has published in Early Theatre, Studies in Philology, The Journal for Early Modern Cultural Studies, and Shakespeare Studies. Learn more about your ad choices.

World-renowned New Testament scholar N.T. Wright is back! He's written an entire book about the 8th chapter of Romans, and he talks to Skye about how this chapter and its themes—including glorification and even salvation—are widely misunderstood. Also this week—How over-simplifying the history of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict can lead to bad takes about the war in Gaza, including the justification of terrorism and atrocities. David French has a new article explaining why devotion to Trump won't break among some Christians, leading Kaitlyn and Skye to debate the roles of reason and emotion in politics. And Phil refuses to talk about a bear that stole a frozen lasagna Holy Post Plus:  NT Wright Debrief with Glenn Packiam https://www.patreon.com/posts/91173267   0:00 - Intro   1:29 - Show starts   1:56 - Theme Song   2:20 - Sponsor - Faithful Counseling Get 10% off your first month at Faithful Counseling.com/HOLYPOST   3:31 - Show resumes   7:38 - Latest thoughts on the Israel and Hamas War   32:04 - Advice on how to think about the conflict   38:49 - Why the Trump Fever won't break 55:30 - Sponsor - Moody Publishing - Pick up your copy of “Just Show Up” by Drew Dyck today at Moodypublishers.com or wherever fine books are sold.  56:37 - Sponsor - Go to hiyahealth.com/HOLYPOST to receive 50% off your first order   57:46 - Interview Intro   1:02:42 - The Gospel according to Paul   1:16:52 - Lament   1:25:44 - Romans 8:28   1:38:15 - End Credits Links mentioned in news segment:   Conflict in Israel and Palestine: Crash Course World History https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1wo2TLlMhiw   The Israel-Palestine conflict: a brief, simple history https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iRYZjOuUnlU   The Progressives Who Flunked the Hamas Test https://www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/2023/10/hamas-pop-intersectionality-leftism-israel/675625/   Opinion | One Reason the Trump Fever Won't Break https://www.nytimes.com/2023/10/01/opinion/christian-nationalism-trump-renew-america.html?smid=nytcore-ios-share&referringSource=articleShare Other resources:   Into the Heart of Romans: A Deep Dive into Paul's Greatest Letter by NT Wright https://amzn.to/48Ptw34   Holy Post website: https://www.holypost.com/   Holy Post Plus: www.holypost.com/plus   Holy Post Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/holypost   Holy Post Merch Store: https://www.holypost.com/shop The Holy Post is supported by our listeners.
