China's naval capabilities are expanding at pace — but scale alone does not equal power. In this episode of The World of Intelligence, Janes analyst Mike Plunkett, Senior Naval Platforms joins Sean Corbett and Cristina Varriale to examine what the rapid modernisation of the People's Liberation Army Navy really means for regional stability and global security. Drawing on unclassified intelligence, satellite imagery and long term capability assessment, the discussion explores how China has moved from a coastal defence force to a modern fleet with global ambitions. The episode unpacks the drivers behind this transformation — from Taiwan and regional deterrence to economic security and global prestige — and assesses where capability outpaces operational credibility.
In this episode, National Defense discusses how humanoid robots are marching into the national security realm, the Navy's munitions shortage plans, and a new Army carbine rifle.
For this episode we learn about the United States Navy youth organization called the United States Naval Sea Cadet Corps. Joe talks with their National Executive Director, retired US Navy Rear Admiral Andrew Lennon, about their mission to build leaders of character by imbuing in cadets the highest ideals of honor, respect, commitment, and service.

How do you evaluate an AI model for a war you can only fight once? Ike Harris, a Naval officer turned Hill staffer turned AI policy operator, joins the show to discuss his effort to bridge the gap between the labs that build frontier models and the operators who'll deploy them. Ike Harris is the executive director of the newly launched Frontier Security Institute, and was most recently the Republican tech lead on the House Select Committee on the CCP, with prior stints in OSD and as a surface warfare officer. We discuss… The GAIN AI and Overwatch acts: and Congress's most aggressive attempt to wrest export-control authority from the executive branch since the Cold War Why you can't just "buy AI": and why national security evals look nothing like the SWE benchmarks the labs optimize for Strategic-level evals :for problems you can't run ten times, from Iran negotiations to targeting at the COCOM level China's robot-army advantage: open-weight models at the edge, Ukraine-style drone iteration soaked up via Russia, and a casualty tolerance the US can't match The "no more NASA" problem: how risk tolerance, mission command, and law-of-armed-conflict constraints shape who wins the deployment race Breaking into tech policy: Ike's case for why every aspiring policy person should spend a year on the Hill Learn more about your ad choices.

As the first day of the German invasion of Crete drew to a close on May 20th, 1941, neither side held the clear advantage they had hoped for — the Germans had failed to secure their primary objectives, while the British commander General Freyberg struggled with poor communications and an overriding fear of a seaborne invasion that would shape his decisions in the days ahead. This episode examines the Royal Navy's critical role in the battle for Crete, exploring both the strengths and significant weaknesses of Admiral Cunningham's fleet — including the limitations of their anti-aircraft systems against the Luftwaffe — and the aggressive positioning of British naval forces north of the island to intercept German supply convoys. The episode then covers two pivotal naval engagements: the night interception of the 1st Motor Sailing Flotilla by British cruisers and destroyers, which turned back the first German reinforcement convoy with the loss of at least eight vessels and 327 men, and the pursuit of the Sagittario convoy on May 22nd, which drew British ships northward into withering Luftwaffe attack and resulted in the loss of the cruisers Gloucester and Fiji, the Warspite damaged, and over a thousand sailors killed — a day that demonstrated both the courage and the cost of the Royal Navy's commitment to holding Crete.

1. Renewed Strategic Threat from Cuba Despite the Cold War being considered over, Cuba is again being viewed as a potential military staging ground for U.S. adversaries. The concern is not nuclear missiles like in 1962, but modern drone systems. 2. Drone Warfare Changes Everything Drones are: Cheap, mobile, and hard to detect Capable of low-altitude flight (avoiding radar) Effective in large swarm attacks Examples cited: Russia using Iranian drones in Ukraine Drones attacking infrastructure like power grids 3. Geographic Danger Cuba is only ~90 miles from Florida, making it: Extremely close for drone operations A potential launch platform against U.S. cities, ports, and infrastructure 4. Growing Alliance Against the U.S. Increasing military and intelligence cooperation between Cuba, Russia, and Iran Activities include: Naval visits Political meetings Agreements on military and intelligence coordination Iran also expanding influence across Latin America 5. “Gray Zone Warfare” Strategy Adversaries may avoid direct war and instead use: Drone attacks Cyber warfare Infrastructure sabotage Disinformation Goal: Disrupt the U.S. without triggering full-scale conflict 6. Potential Attack Scenarios Drone swarms launched from Cuba could target: Military bases Airports Power grids Ports and fuel systems Even small attacks could cause: Economic disruption Public panic 7. U.S. Vulnerabilities Current weaknesses include: Limited counter-drone defenses Unprepared local law enforcement Vulnerable infrastructure Borders are a possible entry point for equipment or operatives Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.

In this episode of The Mariner's Mirror Podcast, we continue our naval fiction series with Chris Durbin, author of the excellent Carlisle & Holbrooke Naval Adventures. Set during the global conflict of the Seven Years' War, the series follows two Royal Navy captains—one a colonial Virginian, the other from Hampshire—as they navigate war, politics, and shifting loyalties in a world on the brink of revolution. Drawing on a 24-year career as a Royal Navy warfare officer, Durbin brings an authentic edge to his storytelling, capturing the realities of life at sea—from fleet actions and convoy duty to the personal pressures of command. In this conversation, we explore how he blends history with fiction, the challenges of writing naval warfare, and the wider historical forces shaping his characters' lives. With seventeen novels in the series and the story moving toward the American Revolution, Durbin's work offers a vivid and immersive take on a defining period of maritime history. If you're new to the series, you can catch up on previous conversations with authors spanning the centuries—from the 17th century with David Davies, to the French Revolution and Napoleonic Wars with Julian Stockwin, Katie Daysh, and Philip K. Allen. We've even delved into the life behind Patrick O'Brian's work with his biographer for a broader perspective. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
Travis and his producer Eric break down the idea of a personal “Mount Rushmore” of high‑value influences and why picking the right people to follow can make you more successful and less susceptible to the spammy, scammy side of self‑help and business content. They use a viral clip about “the most attractive man in America” as a humorous jumping‑off point to talk about substance over style in the online influencer world. On this episode we talk about: Why the phrase “high value man” has become a cringe trigger and what people really mean when they say it. Using a funny viral clip to pivot into a serious conversation about who actually influences your thinking and behavior. Travis's Mount Rushmore of mentors: Naval Ravikant, Adam Grant, Mark Manson, and Gary Vaynerchuk, and why each one made the cut. How Adam Grant's “Give and Take” reshaped Travis's philosophy on relationships, giving, and long‑term success. Naval's concept of unique value and building a skill stack that creates a “market of one,” plus how that ties wealth creation to genuine happiness. Top 3 Takeaways Curate your influences with intention: the people you follow most closely should be data‑driven, non‑reactionary, and focused on truth over polarization or cheap virality. The most successful people tend to be strategic givers, not takers or strict matchers, and adopting a give‑first mindset can fundamentally change your relationships and opportunities. Long‑term leverage comes from stacking skills into a unique value proposition so you become a “market of one,” doing work that feels like play to you but looks like work to everyone else. Notable Quotes “You're basically just calling him hot, but you want to say it in a masculine way, so you're like, ‘he's just so high value.' You wanted to say sexy.” “Give and Take fundamentally shifted the way that I view relationships and the value that's given in relationships because of the givers, takers, matchers thing.” “It's not just about creating one skill set that's marketable… it's about the ultimate skill stack you create over a long enough period of time so you can create a market of one.” Connect with Travis: Instagram: https://instagram.com/travischappell Other: https://travischappell.com A Word from Our Sponsors: - Are you ready to start your own creatorjourney and make it big?

(Note: we had a technical issue that affected the first 12 minutes of Eric's camera feed, so you'll see a bit more wide cam than usual in the beginning. Our apologies!) Why is it that people with half your talent and twice your luck seem to be winning all the time? Because they understand leverage. And you're still trading hours for dollars. Eric Jorgenson spent a decade studying Naval Ravikant, one of the most influential entrepreneurs and thinkers in Silicon Valley, and distilled his wisdom into his classic book “The Almanack of Naval Ravikant”. In this episode, we break down the exact frameworks Naval used to build wealth, happiness, and freedom without getting crushed by the game everyone else is playing. In this episode, you'll learn: Why leverage is the only game that matters now and how code, media, and capital separate the rich from everyone else "Productize yourself” — the two word formula that unlocks specific knowledge and makes competition irrelevant Why hard work is overrated and judgment is the real multiplier that creates 100X outcomes The four types of luck, from blind to built, and how to engineer serendipity into your destiny Why rising above status is the ultimate form of freedom If this conversation about leverage and ownership resonates with you, come to Mainstreet Millionaire Live, where we're breaking down how to source, negotiate, finance, and buy a business.

¿Te imaginas deberle dinero a las potencias más grandes del mundo y decidir simplemente... ignorarlas? Pues eso fue exactamente lo que hizo Cipriano Castro. Hoy en La Casa, Manuel Silva y Samuel Rodríguez abren los libros de historia con Doriann Márquez para desmenuzar uno de los momentos más tensos y dramáticos de nuestro país: El Bloqueo Naval de 1902. Viajamos a la época en que los buques de guerra de Alemania, Inglaterra e Italia se apostaron en nuestras costas para cobrarnos a la fuerza. Hablamos de la crisis económica, la viveza política, la reacción del pueblo y, por supuesto, desarmamos esa icónica frase de Cipriano Castro: "¡La planta insolente del extranjero ha profanado el sagrado suelo de la Patria!". ¿Fue un acto de puro patriotismo o una estrategia maestra para ganar popularidad?

In this episode, we continue our deep dive into naval fiction with the prolific and insightful Philip K. Allan. Since 2018, Philip has built an impressive body of work, most notably his Alexander Clay series set during the Age of Sail. Following a Royal Navy officer through the French Revolutionary and Napoleonic Wars, the series brings to life a global naval career—from home waters to the Mediterranean, Caribbean, Indian Ocean, and South America. Along the way, readers experience everything from commerce raiding and blockades to dramatic ship-to-ship combat and fleet battles, all while gaining a vivid sense of life at sea and the shifting alliances of the era. More recently, Philip has turned his attention to the Second World War with his Wolves series, exploring the deadly struggle between Allied convoys and German U-boats. If you enjoy this conversation, be sure to check out our other episodes in the naval fiction series, featuring contemporary authors writing naval fiction across the centuries and a fascinating look into the life behind Patrick O'Brian's iconic work.

What if your real calling has been with you since you were a kid—and you've just forgotten how to hear it? In this preview episode, former Navy SEAL turned bestselling thriller author Jack Carr sits down with Travis to unpack where certainty of purpose actually comes from, and why your most honest clues are often buried in what you were obsessed with between ages eight and eighteen. From growing up surrounded by his late grandfather's World War II maps, medals, and Marine Corps aviation memorabilia, to getting hooked on black‑and‑white “frogman” films and library books about early Naval special operations, Jack shares how the stories, artifacts, and heroes of his childhood quietly imprinted a lifelong desire to test himself and serve something bigger than himself. Jack explains why humans are wired to prove their value to the “tribe,” and how, in a world of comfort and convenience, that ancient drive to hunt, fight, and contribute hasn't disappeared—it's just been numbed. He and Travis explore the idea of an inner “voice” or sixth sense that pushes you toward challenge, risk, and service, and how ignoring it in favor of safer, more socially acceptable paths can leave you feeling lost as an adult. They also dig into why the books, movies, and TV you binge when you're young work like a time machine: they don't just entertain you, they program your sense of identity, possibility, and what a meaningful life looks like. You'll hear how Jack's early immersion in classic thrillers and 80s action heroes didn't just inspire his SEAL career; it became a stealth education in storytelling—structure, pacing, character, and theme—long before he ever wrote a sentence. He breaks down why reading physical books as an active participant hits your brain differently than passively consuming content on screens or through audiobooks, and how that deliberate input helped him transition from special operations to a second career as an author without ever feeling like he needed a “Plan B.” The conversation also turns to parenting and the modern “wild west” of algorithms, social media, and what Jack bluntly calls “manipulation devices.” As a dad, he shares how he thinks about mentors, cultural influences, and the difference between choosing your heroes—like Rocky or classic war stories—and being fed influencers and content you never asked for. He and Travis wrestle with how to help kids trust their instincts, protect their attention, and still hear that inner calling in a world where the loudest voices are often coming from bots, brands, and foreign actors instead of real mentors. If you've ever felt disconnected from your purpose, wondered when you lost touch with the most unapologetic version of yourself, or questioned whether it's too late to follow that nagging inner voice, this preview will give you a powerful lens: look back at what lit you up before the world told you who to be. Hit play to hear why Jack believes the best futures are built by those who stay students for life, trust their gut, and are willing to test themselves in service of something greater.

In Episode 305, I sit down with JT DeBolt. We've known each other through the interwebs for a couple of years, and about six months ago, he finally pulled the trigger and joined the jiu jitsu academy. He's still early in the journey, and as usual, we talk about how it's already starting to change his life. JT served as a Naval pilot for 12 years, flying numerous combat missions in the P-3, supporting ground troops by providing surveillance and real-time intelligence to commanders on the ground. He's an incredible human who brings powerful perspectives on leadership, societal issues, military strategy, and more. This is one of my favorite episodes in recent memory.
