Podcasts about nation building

In this episode of the Matt Kim Podcast, hosts Matt Kim and Peter dive into the changing landscape of global politics and American imperialism. They discuss the recent, unprecedented move by President Trump to capture Venezuela's leader, exploring the implications and reflecting on how such actions signal a shift to a bold new era of overt power plays. They also discuss the role of AI, the eventual need for digital IDs, and the encroaching dominance of corporate and national interests in shaping the future. The episode concludes with a broader contemplation on the irrelevance of truth in an age dominated by information overload.Timestamps00:00 Introduction and Changing World Dynamics02:29 Controversial Takes and Audience Reactions06:40 Trump's Actions in Venezuela08:11 Historical Context and Regime Change13:40 Public Opinion and Media Influence29:11 The Role of AI and Information Overload38:33 Corporate Power and Global Influence39:19 The Future of Corporate Warfare43:43 The Illusion of Sovereignty47:49 Nation Building and Global Risk53:05 The Reality of Modern Empire Building01:01:23 The Geopolitical Chessboard01:08:51 The Gangster Era of American Diplomacy====================================Support the show~Join the Free Thinker Army!https://www.patreon.com/c/freemattkim====================================The ONLY VPN that can't spy on you.https://vp.net/mattHang out here~!soj.ooO https://soj.ooo/Join this channel to get access to perks:https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC4rC0QxBD1eRPKMHIIpL0vA/joinDonate!https://www.mattkimpodcast.com/support/FREE THINKER ARMY DISCORD:https://discord.gg/2juHnR6DPzTELEGRAM EDIT ZONE:https://t.me/+IV-skn-OXyw1MTcxFollow Matt!Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/mattattack009/Twitter: https://twitter.com/FreeMattKimRumble: https://rumble.com/c/FreeMattKimTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@freemattkimFollow Peter on X:Twitter: https://x.com/AgilePeterBusiness Inquiries Please Email mattkimpodcast@protonmail.com

Regime Change and Nation-Building Are Back!_1 by Ron Paul Liberty Report

Today on Stinchfield, we’re breaking down the lie the media is already pushing — that what the United States is doing in Venezuela is somehow “nation building” like Iraq or Afghanistan. It’s not even close.Venezuela is not a blank slate. It is not a tribal society. It is not a country invented by Western powers. Venezuela already knew freedom. It lived freedom. It is historically a Christian nation built on Western values, private property, and civil society. What destroyed Venezuela wasn’t culture — it was socialism and dictatorship imposed on a people who once lived free.That matters, because restoring freedom is not the same as trying to invent it. In Iraq and Afghanistan, the United States tried to impose Western systems on societies that had never embraced them, where religious and cultural structures demand submission to authority and leave little room for individual liberty. You cannot nation-build where freedom is incompatible with the underlying belief system.Venezuela is different. The people know what they lost. They remember elections that mattered, businesses that operated freely, churches that weren’t controlled by the state, and a middle class that thrived. Removing a criminal regime and returning power to a population that already understands liberty is not occupation — it’s restoration.The media doesn’t want to have this conversation because it destroys their favorite narrative: that America is always the problem. But the truth is simple. Helping a free people reclaim their country is not imperialism. Letting a socialist dictator destroy a nation while exporting chaos to our hemisphere is the real crime.We break down the historical, cultural, and moral difference today — and why this moment in Venezuela is nothing like Iraq or Afghanistan. https://TheMaverickSystem.comhttps://GrantLovesGold.comhttps://www.EnergizedHealth.com/Granthttps://www.PatriotMobile.com/Granthttps://Twc.Health/Grant (Use code Grant for 10% off)See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

On December 3, 2025, The Empire Club of Canada presented a keynote speech entitled, Delivering a Nation-Building Workforce: The Honourable David Piccini, Ontario's Minister of Labour, Immigration, Training and Skills Development. Amidst unprecedented economic uncertainty, governments are increasingly turning to the diversification of trade towards new industries, and the stimulation of landmark capital infrastructure projects. From pipelines, to highways, and technological evolutions, to a bricks and mortar construction site – our workforce remains the backbone of these shifts. In response, Minister Piccini presented his approach to deliver a resilient workforce that can withstand ongoing global instability and prepare for the economic opportunity associated with nation building.

On this week's episode: a mini tyrannosaur is a new species, ants redesign to avoid illness, toxic lead gave humans the edge over Neanderthals, invasive fish are evolving to avoid eradication attempts, and how big mining projects — and attempts to hurry them along — can spell bad news for the environment.

Welcome to The Times of Israel's Lazar Focus. Each Friday, join host deputy editor Amanda Borschel-Dan and diplomatic correspondent Lazar Berman for a deep dive into what's behind the news that spins the globe. Last week, the pair spoke with foremost urban warfare expert John Spencer and Borschel-Dan noted that a term -- “nation-building” -- was raised repeatedly. In this week's episode, we explore this concept, starting with defining the term. We hear about previous models of nation-building, starting from Japan and Germany, following their defeats in World War II. We learn how these attempts were successful -- and former enemies quickly turned into allies. We then turn to more recent history with the West's attempts to reshape Afghanistan and Iraq. What were the differences between the two wars and their aftermaths? And finally, Berman applies the lessons learned in these previous attempts at nation-building and conjectures how they could -- or could not -- be applied in Gaza. Lazar Focus can be found on all podcast platforms. This episode was produced by the Pod-Waves.

This week on the podcast, Jackie and Peter break down the Canadian government's latest release of nation-building projects. The second tranche includes a major LNG export development, Ksi Lisims LNG, along with a new electricity transmission line in Northwest B.C., three mining projects, and plans for a Northwest Critical Conservation Corridor. They then turn to the IEA's World Energy Outlook (WEO) 2025, which reintroduces the Current Policies Scenario (CPS) after a five-year hiatus. The CPS examines how global energy demand evolves under existing policies and shows oil and gas consumption continuing to grow through 2050. The report also highlights the energy requirements of rapidly expanding AI data centers. Jackie and Peter debate how this surge in load will be met—and which energy sources are most likely to power it. Content referenced in this podcast includes:Prime Minister Carney announces second tranche of nation-building projects referred to the Major Projects Office (November 13, 2025) IEA World Energy Outlook 2025 (November 12, 2025) Open Circuit Podcast (November 7, 2025) The Stargate Project (January 2025) How Meta's Data Centers Drive Economic Growth Across the US (November 7, 2025) US electric vehicle sales slow as Trump champions petrol (November 13, 2025) Please review our disclaimer at: https://www.arcenergyinstitute.com/disclaimer/ Check us out on social media: X (Twitter): @arcenergyinstLinkedIn: @ARC Energy Research Institute Subscribe to ARC Energy Ideas PodcastApple PodcastsAmazon MusicSpotify

In this episode of the Disaster Tough Podcast, host John Scardena sits down with Dr. Chris Ellis, a military veteran, scholar, and author of  Resilient Citizens: The People, Perils, and Politics of Modern Preparedness. Together, they explore the evolution of what it means to be a resilient citizen—someone capable of surviving and thriving during crisis through community, faith, and proactive readiness. From Iraq deployments and disaster nation-building to the academic study of resilience and preparedness, Dr. Ellis shares how his journey through war zones, research, and leadership shaped his mission to help others build lasting readiness.Scardena and Ellis dive into global and cultural lessons from history's most significant disasters—from Mount St. Helens and Hurricane Katrina to Japan's tsunami response and European recovery models—and how those events reveal the interconnectedness of preparedness, culture, and resilience. They discuss Ellis's SPIES framework—Social, Physical, Intellectual, Emotional, and Spiritual—and how these five dimensions strengthen individuals and communities before disaster strikes.The conversation challenges stereotypes of “preppers,” shifting focus toward collaboration, compassion, and civic responsibility. Ellis explains why preparedness is not about fear, but about agency—taking control of your capacity to act and support others. From faith-based readiness to community-driven resilience, this episode is packed with insights for emergency managers, policymakers, and anyone striving to build a stronger, more self-reliant society.Whether you're leading disaster response, training in emergency management, or simply looking to protect your family and neighbors, this episode reminds us that true preparedness isn't about isolation—it's about connection, purpose, and service.You can find Dr. Ellis book here on Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/Resilient-Citizens-People-Politics-Preparedness/dp/163763448XSEO Keywords: John Scardena | Disaster Tough Podcast | Chris Ellis | The People Perils and Politics of Modern Preparedness | Resilient Citizen | Emergency Management | Preparedness | Resilience | Military Leadership | Nation Building | Community Readiness | Emergency Response | Humanitarian Aid | Disaster Leadership | Crisis Management | Faith and Resilience | SPIES Framework | FEMA | Mount St. Helens | Hurricane Katrina | Japan Earthquake | Resilient Communities | Public Safety | Homeland Security | The Readiness Lab | Doberman Emergency Management

K-Pop Demon Hunters, Netflix's most successful movie ever and the seismic cultural force of the summer, was made almost entirely by Canadian creative staff. So why isn't it a Canadian movie? Most of us probably understand that it's because it was made by American producers with American money. However, outside of some media puff pieces about the Canadian creator and co-director Maggie Kang, there isn't a lot of discussion about why we aren't doing anything to move away from being a thankless land of oursourcing. Luckily, Wildbrain animation staffer Kristian Lobb agreed with me that cartoons can be the ultimate "Nation Building project" and the two of us talk about how we could benefit from all of that pop culture soft power if we just only we moved the pieces around a little bit.

Here's a pitch for a national project that could bring cheaper power to Canadians, reduce emissions, protect our energy sovereignty and promote Indigenous reconciliation. How about a cross-Canada electricity grid powered by wind and solar? What On Earth's Indigenous climate solutions columnist, Melina Laboucan-Massimo, is with a delegation in Ottawa making the case for why this project should be a priority for Mark Carney's government.

Canada's new Major Projects Office is part of Prime Minister Mark Carney's ambition to fast-track Canada's major infrastructure projects. And the person leading it – Dawn Farrell – will play a critical role in getting those deals done quickly. But Farrell is no political appointee. So who is she? And what does her appointment to the post say about the federal government's intentions for a generational infrastructure build?Globe reporters Emma Graney and Jeffrey Jones spoke to Farrell's friends and former colleagues to learn who she is and how she operates. Graney, The Globe's energy reporter, joins The Decibel to discuss what they found.Questions? Comments? Ideas? Email us at thedecibel@globeandmail.com Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Prime Minister Mark Carney says it's time to build big, and build quickly. Today he revealed a list of five “nation building” projects, including LNG production, and small nuclear reactors. We'll look at two of those projects in a bit more detail — mines in Saskatchewan and B.C. More on the plans, the people and the pushback.And: The hunt is on for the person who shot Conservative influencer Charlie Kirk in Utah. Kirk was killed yesterday at an event on a college campus.Also: A Calgary company is banking on a big venture to digitize the dollar. It plans to launch a Canadian stablecoin next year.Plus: Canadian views on immigration, political violence in the U.S., and more.

Prime Minister Mark Carney has laid out the first five of his government's so-called "nation-building projects." The list includes two B.C. projects: phase two of the LNG Canada project, and expansion of the Red Chris mine. Former NDP MLA and MP Nathan Cullen discusses the projects' potential impacts.

That guest is Mark Podlasly. Mark is a member of the Nlaka'pamux Nation in British Columbia and he's the CEO of First Nations Major Projects Coalition.The F-N-M-P-C is an Indigenous-led organization involved in major energy, infrastructure, and resource developments across Canada.

Easy to say. Maybe a little more difficult to make a reality. That's what Mark and I are talking about today.How do those negotiations happen? What's the right amount of equity? What are the other factors that matter, besides equity? Are there past examples we can look to for guidance?

Send us a textHave you been so focused on national issues that you've missed your opportunity for local kingdom impact? That's exactly where Tyler McHart found himself before a profound shift in his thinking about Christian engagement in business, family, and community.Drawing from Jeremiah 29's surprising instructions to exiled Israelites in Babylon, Tyler unpacks how believers are called not to retreat from hostile territory but to establish themselves firmly within it. "Build houses, plant gardens, have children..." wasn't just advice for ancient Jews—it's a blueprint for modern Christians seeking to create lasting impact in their communities.Tyler challenges compartmentalized thinking that keeps our faith, business, and civic engagement in separate silos. Through personal stories—including a powerful family gathering where he and his sisters intentionally passed down their mother's values to ten grandchildren—he illustrates what it means to establish a godly legacy that transcends generations.This episode explores how Christians can "start their own nation" by creating wealth through entrepreneurship, establishing family values that resist cultural corruption, and strategically engaging with local government and business networks. Tyler shares his journey from national-level political focus to meaningful local involvement, including developing relationships with state representatives and community leaders.Whether you're a business owner, employee, parent, or simply a believer looking to maximize your kingdom impact, this message offers practical steps for becoming more intentionally engaged in transforming your community from the inside out. As Tyler says, "The family is going to help change the world, and I believe that starts with strong fathers, men of God that have a vision for their life."Ready to plant your garden in "Satan's city" and create an oasis of godly influence? This episode will show you how to begin building your own nation right where you're planted.Support the show

In this episode of America's Founding Series, Professor Nick Giordano explores the fascinating and often misunderstood legacy of John Dickinson, the man known as “The Penman of the Revolution.” While others raced toward independence, Dickinson stood firm in his belief that liberty must be secured through law, not rushed into through war. He helped ignite the flames of resistance with his Letters from a Farmer in Pennsylvania, yet refused to sign the Declaration of Independence, only to later pick up a musket and fight for the very cause he once questioned. Discover how Dickinson's moral conviction, intellectual rigor, and post-war contributions helped shape America's founding in ways few recognize today. Episode Highlights: Why John Dickinson refused to sign the Declaration of Independence despite being a leading voice for colonial rights How the Letters from a Farmer in Pennsylvania became one of the most influential texts of the American resistance Dickinson's surprising postwar legacy, from drafting state constitutions to defending the U.S. Constitution in The Letters of Fabius

With the current push toward a regime-change war in Iran, many are speculating whether or not the United States will be drawn into another attempt to rebuild a nation in the Middle East.

Burden joins me to discuss why previous regime-change efforts have failed and why the prospect remains so attractive to the American ruling class.  Follow on: Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-auron-macintyre-show/id1657770114 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/3S6z4LBs8Fi7COupy7YYuM?si=4d9662cb34d148af Substack: https://auronmacintyre.substack.com/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/AuronMacintyre Gab: https://gab.com/AuronMacIntyre YouTube:https://www.youtube.com/c/AuronMacIntyre Rumble: https://rumble.com/c/c-390155 Odysee: https://odysee.com/@AuronMacIntyre:f Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/auronmacintyre/ Today's sponsors: Visit: https://crockettcoffee.com Learn more about your ad choices.

Here's the link: https://unpacked.media/nerdsurvey In this season finale, Yael Steiner and Jonathan Schwab explore the powerful and surprising story of the Jewish National Fund's iconic blue tzedakah box—also known as the JNF "Blue Box." What began as a nostalgic household object for many Jewish families turns out to be one of the most influential and controversial symbols in modern Zionist history. Discover how this simple tin box, known as a "pushka" in Yiddish, became a global fundraising tool for land purchases in pre-state Israel, helped popularize the holiday of Tu Bishvat, and instilled Zionist values across generations of diaspora Jews—dime by dime.
