In this episode the guys break down whether a good gym actually makes a difference — covering convenience, cleanliness, and culture as the three things the gym industry has identified as the real drivers of consistency. They cover why 24 Hour Fitness put gyms within ten miles of each other on purpose, why culture matters more than equipment, why CrossFit proved that a grimy box with no air conditioning can beat a fully equipped luxury gym, and why the right culture depends entirely on where you are in your fitness journey. They also get into new probiotic research showing measurable effects on strength, endurance and fat loss through improved amino acid availability, gut wall permeability in athletes, and CNS firing efficiency, why gluten sensitivity is more common than people realize and how to know if it's affecting your results, the famous Nun Study from the 1980s showing nuns with full Alzheimer's pathology who still scored perfectly on cognitive tests, why their voices have all gotten lower over ten years of podcasting, and the new Mind Pump Hormones community on Skool replacing their Facebook forum.

With the largest population of public school students in the country, and an even larger workforce, California has a lot riding on educating its future workers. Pressed by economic and technological shifts and facing enrollment declines, how will the state think outside the box—employing non-traditional learning approaches to remain competitive? Will this mean reimagining the state's mission to provide quality public higher education, or devising new ways to leverage “cradle-to-career” data to drive student and worker success?

The evening session of the ongoing three-day Summer Course featured an insightful panel discussion on ‘Inner Awakening and Righteous Living - Dharma as the Compass for Daily Life'. Moderated by Prof Rani P L (Dean, Faculty of Humanities & Social Sciences and Languages & Literature, and Director, Anantapur Campus), the panel brought together Ms Sai Swaroopa Iyer (Program Lead, INDICA) Ms Sai Geetha M N (Senior Director, Software Engineering, Lowe's India) Dr Lathasree (Senior Medical Officer, Sri Sathya Sai General Hospital) and Ms Vidyulatha Narayan (Manager, Education Division, East Sussex County, UK.)Drawing upon Bhagawan Sri Sathya Sai Baba's teachings, the speakers explained that Dharma is not merely a code of conduct but the very expression of one's innate divinity. They reiterated Swami's message that righteousness in the heart leads to peace in the world, while emphasising trikarana shuddhi—the unity of thought, word, and action—as the hallmark of a noble life. The panel elaborated on various dimensions of Dharma, including Swarupa Dharma, the realisation of one's true divine nature, and Deha Dharma, the responsibility of caring for the body and mind through pure food, conduct, thoughts, speech, and balanced living. Quoting examples from the Ramayana, Mahabharata, and Bhagawad Gita, the speakers explained that true Dharma lies in performing one's duties selflessly, with detachment, and offering every action to the Divine while upholding universal human values. Concluding the discussion, the panel affirmed that Dharma ultimately becomes the foundation for inner awakening, enabling one to listen to the voice of conscience, purify the mind, and manifest the divinity within. By making Dharma the natural way of life, they noted, humanity can move from individual transformation to universal harmony and lasting peace.

This spring, the House of European History – a flagship museum of the European Parliament – has opened a temporary exhibition under the title Postcolonial?that features unique artworks, historical objects, and personal stories. Knowing the multifaceted and controversial legacies of European colonialism and being aware of just how closely intertwined the European integration project and thehistory of decolonization have been, this amounts to a significant and urgent intervention. The exhibition asks explicitly how Europeans preserved their power as their empires collapsed and aims to show how the “colonial matrix of power” continues to shape the world we live in. The exhibition ultimately ambitions no less than to help us rethink what it means to be European – and thus raises a host of essential and challenging questions. Our podcast features two of the exhibition's main curators – Kieran Burns and Ayoko Mensah – and two eminent experts in colonial history, postcolonial theory, and questions of European and postcolonial memory – Diana Natermann and Aline Sierp. Moderated by Ferenc Laczó, they jointly examine this crucial new exhibition in depth – and consider what it means to have such an exhibition at the heart of the EU today. The first part of the podcast explored some of the mostthought-provoking parts of the exhibition. This second part focuses on the links between the main themes of the exhibition and the history of European integration; asks whether there might be a risk here ofoffering a dichotomous and too moralizing reading of history; and considers what a thorough rethinking in the light of colonial history of how to be European today would imply – and what might be most in need of revision in theHouse of European History itself in accordance with that process of rethinking.

Once known as a garden city and a pensioner's paradise, Bengaluru has undergone extraordinary economic and demographic change over the past three decades. While growth has brought opportunity, it has also reshaped everyday life in ways that go far beyond traffic and waste. This second edition of The Bengaluru Debates turns a critical lens on our city to ask whether it still supports healthy lives for its citizens. Public health research increasingly shows that the roots of urban ill-health lie not only in hospitals or clinics, but in planning, infrastructure, and governance. Air quality, water and sanitation, food systems, mobility, housing design, open spaces, and access to light and ventilation all shape how healthy a city allows its people to be. Yet these questions rarely enter public debate in Bengaluru. Opening with a short context setting, the session will move into a panel discussion between Dinesh Gundu Rao, Hon'ble Minister of Health & Family Welfare, Government of Karnataka; Dr. C N Ashwath Narayan, Former Deputy Chief Minister of Karnataka and Member of the Legislative Assembly for Malleshwaram; Dr. Shreelata Rao Seshadri, Professor and Director, Ramalingaswami Centre for Equity and Social Determinants of Health, Public Health Foundation of India(PHFI). Moderated by Srikanth Viswanathan, CEO, Janaagraha, the panel will reflect on the relationship between the health of a city and the that of its citizens: what Bengaluru must rethink to secure a healthier future. The session will also include a talk by Nachiket Mor, Economist & Health Systems Researcher. The discussion will be followed by an audience Q&A. The Bengaluru Debates: A BIC–Janaagraha Dialogue Series on Urban Governance in Bengaluru and Beyond aims to expand civic space in the city by fostering conversations through a civic lens. The series is designed to be informative, constructive, and entertaining, while also serving as a trigger for local community action. Its objective is to bridge the gap between policy, practice, and public discourse on urban governance challenges, and to catalyse citizen and policymaker engagement towards systemic solutions. In collaboration with: Janaagraha Centre for Citizenship and Democracy, founded in 2001 in Bengaluru, is dedicated to transforming the quality of life in India's cities and towns. Their mission is to strengthen the systems of urban governance so that cities can deliver clean, green, safe, and liveable environments for all citizens. For them, "quality of life" is not only about infrastructure and services, but equally about responsive institutions, citizen engagement, and transparent, data-driven governance. In this episode of BIC Talks, Dinesh Gundu Rao, C N Ashwath Narayan, Shreelata Rao Seshadri and Nachiket Mor will be in conversation with Srikanth Viswanathan. This is an excerpt from a conversation that took place in the BIC premises in Jan 2026. Subscribe to the BIC Talks Podcast on your favourite podcast app!

Max Weinreich spent the entirety of his adult life building YIVO and the field of Yiddish Studies. A 'convert' to the cause of Yiddishism in his adolescence, he pursued a doctorate in German philology in Weimar Germany with the explicit goal of returning to Eastern Europe to contribute to the project of building a modern, secular Yiddish culture. His study visits to Yale University and Vienna in the early 1930s proved transformational in broadening and revising his understanding of the role of the social sciences in Jewish life as a tool for strengthening Jews' psychological and material resources. The destruction of the traditional Yiddish heartland in Eastern Europe and his experiences leading YIVO in post-WWII New York City added yet another dimension to Weinreich's conception of the importance of both Yiddish and Jewish Studies for the future of American and world Jewry. Would Max Weinreich recognize Yiddish studies today?

Max Weinreich spent the entirety of his adult life building YIVO and the field of Yiddish Studies. A 'convert' to the cause of Yiddishism in his adolescence, he pursued a doctorate in German philology in Weimar Germany with the explicit goal of returning to Eastern Europe to contribute to the project of building a modern, secular Yiddish culture. His study visits to Yale University and Vienna in the early 1930s proved transformational in broadening and revising his understanding of the role of the social sciences in Jewish life as a tool for strengthening Jews' psychological and material resources. The destruction of the traditional Yiddish heartland in Eastern Europe and his experiences leading YIVO in post-WWII New York City added yet another dimension to Weinreich's conception of the importance of both Yiddish and Jewish Studies for the future of American and world Jewry. Would Max Weinreich recognize Yiddish studies today?

Canada is entering one of the most important moments in its innovation history. As global tensions rise and national security becomes a growing priority, founders, investors, and governments are being forced to rethink how Canadian defence technology is built, funded, and scaled.In this special episode of Tank Talks, host Matt Cohen steps into the guest seat as part of a live panel recording from the Arctic Edge event, held during Toronto Tech Week on May 26th, 2026. Against the backdrop of escalating Arctic sovereignty concerns and a new era of national security, this panel, aptly named “The Backers,” brings together leading Canadian investors to dissect the burgeoning defence technology sector in Canada.Moderated by Matthew Lombardi of The Icebreaker, the discussion features Matt Cohen (Ripple Ventures), Devin Galloway (Garage Capital), and Mark Maybank (Maverix Private Equity). Together, they explore the seismic shift in Canadian capital markets, from the historical reluctance to fund defence to the current “cultural permission” that is finally opening doors. They tackle the complexities of dual-use technology, the harsh realities of government procurement, the critical “Series A gap” for sovereign-interest companies, and what it truly takes to build a world-beating defence company from Canada.Whether you're a founder navigating the defence landscape, an investor looking for the next frontier, or simply interested in the future of Canadian sovereignty, this episode offers a raw, unfiltered look at the challenges and immense opportunities ahead.Why Defence Investing is Finally Changing in Canada (02:48)* Why Canadian defence technology has become a national priority after years of limited investment* How changes to venture fund mandates and government policy are opening new opportunities for founders* Why investors believe Canada is only at the beginning of its defence innovation journeyDefence vs. Dual Use: The Debate Every Founder Should Understand (04:08)* Why some investors believe dual-use businesses reduce risk while others see them as a distraction* The challenges of serving both commercial and government customers at the same time* Why simply having the conversation around defence represents major cultural progress for CanadaWhy Procurement Still Matters More Than Capital (10:00)* The encouraging signs that Canadian procurement is beginning to move faster* Why government demand signals remain one of the biggest barriers to investment* How procurement reform could unlock the next generation of defence startupsThe Hottest Trends and Biggest Mistakes in Defence Tech (12:06)* Why AI, robotics, drones, and autonomous systems are attracting enormous investor attention* How experienced operators separate themselves from founders chasing hype* Why understanding military procurement is just as important as building great technologyWhat Great Defence Founders Do Differently (15:33)* Why credibility, patience, and long-term relationship building matter more than moving fast* The importance of recruiting exceptional talent around a mission that inspires people* Why fundraising skills are critical for capital-intensive defence businessesBuilding Companies for Decades, Not Years (17:44)* Why defence investing requires a completely different timeline than traditional software startups* How venture firms are adapting to longer company-building cycles* Why patient capital is essential for creating world-changing businessesExpanding the Definition of Defence (21:00)* Why protecting critical infrastructure is becoming just as important as military applications* How ports, utilities, emergency services, and cities fit into the modern defence landscape* Why startups should think beyond government procurement when building go-to-market strategiesHelping Startups Win Beyond Writing the First Check (25:11)* How strategic corporate relationships can accelerate growth alongside government contracts* Why investors are building networks of executives who actively support portfolio companies* The growing momentum behind procurement reform across Canadian institutionsAdvice for Founders Building Canada's Next Great Defence Company (27:20)* Why founders should spend time with customers before perfecting the product* The importance of building relationships in Ottawa long before contracts arrive* Why the ambition should be to build a company that leads the world, not just CanadaThe Funding Gap Threatening Canadian Innovation (34:18)* Why Canada still struggles to fund companies through critical growth stages* How government matching funds and institutional investors could help close the gap* Why keeping Canada's best companies at home will require larger pools of patient capitalValuations, Venture Math, and Keeping Canadian Founders in Canada (39:29)* Why Canadian and American venture markets operate under very different economic realities* The dangers of raising oversized rounds before a company is ready* Why solving Canada's capital challenges is essential for keeping world-class entrepreneurs at homeAbout the PanelMatt Cohen is the Founder and Managing Partner of Ripple Ventures, an early-stage venture capital firm investing in exceptional founders across Canada and the United States.

This spring, the House of European History – a flagship museum of the European Parliament – has opened a temporary exhibition under the title Postcolonial?that features unique artworks, historical objects, and personal stories. Knowing the multifaceted and controversial legacies of European colonialism and being aware of just how closely intertwined the European integration project and thehistory of decolonization have been, this amounts to a significant and urgent intervention. The exhibition asks explicitly how Europeans preserved their power as their empires collapsed and aims to show how the “colonial matrix of power” continues to shape the world we live in. The exhibition ultimately ambitions no less than to help us rethink what it means to be European – and thus raises a host of essential and challenging questions. Our podcast features two of the exhibition's main curators – Kieran Burns and Ayoko Mensah – and two eminent experts in colonial history, postcolonial theory, and questions of European and postcolonial memory – Diana Natermann and Aline Sierp. Moderated by Ferenc Laczó, they jointly examine this crucial new exhibition in depth – and consider what it means to have such an exhibition at the heart of the EU today. This first part of the podcast explores some of the most thought-provoking parts of the exhibition: it discusses how the curators selected the artworks, objects, and stories to be featured in the exhibition and reflects on the ways theexhibition builds on current scholarship – and why its makers decided to place a clear emphasis on how Europeans largely preserved their power even as their empires collapsed. The second part will focus on the links between the main themes of the exhibition and the history of European integration.The episodes are based on a panel that was held at Maastricht University's Brussels Hub on May 11, 2025, and was generously supported by the Arts, Media and Culture research group of the Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences.

In 1897 when the Forverts was founded, the need for a Jewish newspaper—a Yiddish newspaper that is—was self-evident: millions of Yiddish speaking Jewish immigrants needed a reliable daily source of news in their own language. In the first few decades of the 20th century the Yiddish press blossomed in New York, peaking at five different daily papers and an estimated daily readership of approximately one million in New York City alone in the early 1920s. The major form of media for immigrant Jews and their offspring, the Yiddish press provided its readers with everything from international, national, and local news, to original and translated literature, both high and low, literary and theater criticism, politics, humor, advice columns, and more. Yiddish newspapers taught immigrants how to vote and even how to play baseball. Today, nearly 125 years after the first issue of the Forverts, the vast majority of American Jews speak and read English and can get their news from the mainstream English language press. And yet, the Jewish press—now mostly in English—remains an important journalistic outlet for topics of particular interest to the Jewish community. From Jewish TV shows, movies, books, music, and restaurants to the happenings of Jewish institutions and communities; from the Jewish angles and stories behind the news, to in-depth focus on topics such as Israel and antisemitism; Jewish publications fill the gaps of the mainstream press for a Jewish readership hungry for today's Jewish stories. Join us for a conversation with editors of today's major American Jewish publications about the role they play in the Jewish world. Moderated by Gal Beckerman (The New York Times Book Review) this panel will feature Alana Newhouse (Tablet Magazine), Jodi Rudoren (The Forward), and Philissa Cramer (Jewish Telegraphic Agency). This panel will explore questions including: Now that American Jews have so clearly assimilated into American society what is the need for a Jewish press? What audience do the editors of these publications target? How do they serve the American Jewish community as it grows diverse and diffuse? This panel was originally held on September 13, 2021.

Patrick K. O'Donnell describes how Ulysses S. Grant ordered Phil Sheridan to wage total war in the Shenandoah Valley, commanding the execution of Mosby's men and the destruction of crops. Although Sheridan moderated these orders due to political optics, he deployed Richard Blazer and his Scouts—armed with rapid-fire Spencer carbines—to hunt Mosby. The conflict turned brutal, involving ruthless figures like the bushwhacker Mobberly. At Kabletown, Mosby finally eliminated the threat by ambushing and capturing Blazer. One of Mosby's rangers, the lethal Lewis Powell, was tasked with escorting the captured Blazer to Richmond. (5)1865

This week Jacobin Radio presents “In the Imperial Crosshairs: Trump's War and Its Consequences for the People of Iran and Ukraine,” a panel organized by Haymarket Books that took place on April 16. Moderated by Denys Bondar, the panel features four socialist voices from the United States, Iran, Russia, and Ukraine. They examine the catastrophic consequences of the US-Israeli war already being paid by the people of Iran and Ukraine — from the Strait of Hormuz to the streets of Kyiv — and by working people everywhere. Speakers include: - Ashley Smith (Ukraine Solidarity Network): Traces the strategic logic of Trump's imperial war, rooted in US relative decline and the drive to dominate China's energy supply chains. - Frieda Afary (Iranian-American socialist and author of Socialist Feminism: A New Approach): Discusses progressive opposition inside Iran, including feminist activists, labor organizers, and national minority movements, and why solidarity with these groups is the only principled position. - Aleksandra Zapolskaya (Coordinating editor of Posle media and anti-war activist): Explains what the war means for Russia and the Russian people living under a repressive regime that has crushed independent institutions, strangled the press, and imprisoned anti-war voices. - Denys Pilash (Editor of Commons journal and member of Sotsialnyi Rukh): Currently serving in the Ukrainian armed forces, he speaks from the front lines on why impunity for one aggressor opens the door for the next. The discussion also explores anti-war labor solidarity, the global implications of Orban's electoral defeat, and the debate around “campism.” Jacobin Radio with Suzi Weissman features conversations with leading thinkers and activists, with a focus on labor, the economy, and protest movements.
