Send us a textWhen American B-2 bombers struck three Iranian nuclear facilities, they didn't just destroy buildings—they dramatically reshaped the Middle Eastern geopolitical landscape. This watershed moment represents America's full entry into the Israel-Iran conflict, moving beyond defensive missile interception to offensive strikes on Iranian soil.The fallout has been swift and multifaceted. President Trump warned Iran against retaliation while simultaneously expressing frustration with Israel for violating a negotiated ceasefire. "I'm not happy with Israel," Trump declared bluntly. "You don't go out in the first hour and just drop everything you have on them." This rare public criticism of Israeli actions reveals the complex dynamics at play as America attempts to navigate its role in this volatile conflict.Perhaps most fascinating is the deep split within Trump's own political base. Traditional hawks celebrate while the more isolationist "America First" wing sounds alarms about mission creep. Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene didn't mince words: "Americans all over the world are seriously questioning if this is going to be World War Three." Meanwhile, former advisor Steve Bannon warned of a "bait and switch to please neocon warmongers." This internal struggle mirrors broader questions about America's proper role in Middle Eastern conflicts.The mainstream media's coverage has been particularly troubling. Networks provided almost exclusively pro-war perspectives, with supposed progressives like Van Jones joining neoconservatives in cheerleading military action. This propaganda machine eerily resembles the lead-up to previous Middle Eastern wars, raising the question: Have we learned nothing from our past interventions?Professor Jeffrey Sachs provides essential context by explaining that this moment represents the culmination of Netanyahu's "30-year mission to drag the United States into war with Iran." His analysis, paired with historical perspectives from voices like Noam Chomsky, offers a sobering counterpoint to the media's war drums.As tensions remain high, now is the time to engage critically with America's Middle East policy. What are the true costs of this escalation? And who stands to benefit? Follow the Darrell McLean Show for ongoing analysis that cuts through tribalism to find reasoned common ground.

What does it mean to be British? To answer this, Multiracial Britishness: Global Networks in Hong Kong, 1910–45 (Cambridge UP, 2023) by Dr. Vivian Kong takes us to an underexplored site of Britishness – the former British colony of Hong Kong. Vivian Kong asks how colonial hierarchies, the racial and cultural diversity of the British Empire, and global ideologies complicate the meaning of being British. Using multi-lingual sources and oral history, Dr. Kong traces the experiences of multiracial residents in 1910-45 Hong Kong. Guiding us through Hong Kong's global networks, and the colony's co-existing exclusive and cosmopolitan social spaces, this book uncovers the long history of multiracial Britishness. Dr. Kong argues that Britishness existed in the colony in multiple, hyphenated forms – as a racial category, but also as privileges, a means of survival, and a form of cultural and national belonging. This book offers us an important reminder that multiracial inhabitants of the British Empire were just as active in the making of Britishness as the British state and white Britons. This interview was conducted by Dr. Miranda Melcher whose book focuses on post-conflict military integration, understanding treaty negotiation and implementation in civil war contexts, with qualitative analysis of the Angolan and Mozambican civil wars.

In this episode, Marcelle and Raimi are in conversation with a very special guest, Nehiyaw (Cree) Elder Richard Jenkins. Elder Richard Jenkins chats with us about what being an elder means to him, as well as 2-spirit as a placeholder term for gender and sexual diversity, and ᐁᔨᐦᑵᐤ (eyihkwew; not man, not woman, something in between) as a conceptual way of being that can see and understand multiple perspectives. We are grateful for Richard sharing teachings with us as he touches on the Nehiyaw practice of noninterference as a core principle for how to guide and support children. The trio, as always, finish with recommendations, including; The Travelers of Casteia by Beck DeTrempe, 2 Spirits in Motion Society, and The Non-Binary Bunny by Maia Kobabe.

In a world increasingly dominated by AI-powered recruiting tools, the human touch of employee referrals might just be your organization's secret weapon. Mike Stafiej, CEO and founder of ERIN, joins Bill Banham on the HRchat Show to reveal how properly implemented employee referral programs drive five times more hires while cutting turnover in half."Employee referrals is not a new concept," Mike acknowledges, "but if you grab your average employee and say, 'Hey, do you know how much you can earn for referring to this job?' they're going to have no idea what you're talking about." This lack of transparency and cumbersome administrative processes have traditionally hampered what should be one of recruiting's most powerful channels. The ERIN platform tackles these challenges by automating everything from submission to payment, handling complex global policies across different countries, currencies, and business units.Organizations using ERIN's approach see dramatic increases in referral participation, explains Mike, from initial adoption rates around 20% to as high as 80% over time. This means tapping into employees who were previously disengaged from talent acquisition efforts. Gamification plays a crucial role in this transformation, bringing "smaller, faster rewards earlier into the process" to counteract the typically lengthy referral timeline. Employees earn points for actions like sharing jobs on social media or logging into the app, creating immediate gratification rather than waiting months for a referral to complete the hiring process.Perhaps most fascinating is Mike's perspective on how employee referrals will evolve alongside AI recruiting tools. As both employers and candidates increasingly leverage AI in the hiring process, we're moving "from a world where 60 applications per job is acceptable to one where you'll have 10,000 applications per hire." In this noise-filled environment, employee referrals maintain the critical human element at scale, providing pre-vetted candidates who already understand the company culture.Support the showFeature Your Brand on the HRchat PodcastThe HRchat show has had 100,000s of downloads and is frequently listed as one of the most popular global podcasts for HR pros, Talent execs and leaders.

Abhay chats with Pramod Varma, the visionary technologist who helped architect India's digital transformation, enabling over a billion people to access digital identity, banking, payments, and verifiable credentials, fundamentally reshaping India's social and economic landscape.  (0:00 - 3:41) Introduction(3:41) Part 1 - Describing what he does, transforming India into the transaction economy(20:34) Part 2 - Verbs not nouns, connecting tech to everyone, lessons in equity, personal learning(42:28) Part 3 - leading for magnitude and scale, art and aesthetics, prioritizing equity(1:00:59) ConclusionPramod is currently the Co-Founder and Chief Architect of FIDE.org leading global efforts such as BECKN Protocol and FINTERNET.He has been the chief architect of most of India's Digital Public Infrastructure (DPI) efforts starting with Aadhaar - India's unique ID system that covers 1.4 Billion people; eSign - an interoperable digital signature protocol; DigiLocker - digital credentialing and wallet system having over 9 billion verifiable credentials and over 400 million users; and UPI - the unified instant payment system that was launched in 2016 currently doing over 18 Billion transactions a month.He also played a key role in designing and architecting India's indirect tax (GST) system, national toll collection system, digital health infrastructure, digital agri infrastructure, and digital education infrastructure.Intro:The world needs more heroes, so let me thank you first for your heroism in an effort to engage here and choose TRUST ME I KNOW WHAT I'm DOING as a part of your day and even a small part of your life.  I appreciate you watching and subscribing on YouTube, listening on all of the podcast platforms, rating and writing reviews, following on those good old social media places, and sharing this with all your friends and family. Now if I really think about heroic feats in this digital age we live in, I can't think of a better person who effectively embodies it than Pramod Varma.  Pramod is a computer scientist and for over the past decade and a half, he has been the driving designer of tech inclusion, equity, and connectivity to India's entire population.  He is the chief architect behind many of India's digital public infrastructure initiatives like Aadhar - the digital identity system covering 1.4 billion people that enabled banking access from almost nothing to above 80% in just a decade, and similarly e-sign, account aggregator for open finance, and of course the UPI or Unified Payments Interface that is now processing over 18 billion transactions in India every month.  Staggering is a word that comes to my mind, but still doesn't do justice to the scale and scope of work that Pramod has designed and is continuing to lead.  He grew up in a small town in Kerala, earned his PhD in computer science and a masters in applied mathematics. Pramod is highly driven by curiosity and equipped with an insatiable thirst for broadly understanding humanity through art and knowledge.  After journeying successfully through the early days of the internet in a variety of entrepreneurial  and tech leadership roles,  Pramod made a deep pivot in 2009 to volunteer on a national digital identity project, and the rest is as they say history.  And for those keeping score at home, Pramod's initial success in harnessing a team to do this at scale and at the cost of about 70 rupees per person, was all open sourced and unbundled, so that you could build iterative and supplemental layers on this important foundation for years to come.  He is currently the co-founder and chief architect of “Networks for Humanity” creating universal technology infrastructure for the AI driven digital economy and for the tokenization and exchange of all forms of assets across geographies and sectors. A few of the visions that he has co-created are the Finternet, an initiative to build infrastructure that empowers individuals and businesses to unify, verify, and transact their assets seamlessly, enabling billions of people to actively participate in the global digital economy, and also the Beckn Protocol, a vision for peer-to-peer, agentic native, open networks that enable exchange across the global value chains.  As you can guess, while most are playing checkers, I feel like Pramod is playing 4-dimensional chess… while keeping a grounded lens on disciplined equity, education, and inclusion.  We caught up to chat about it all, but with so many descriptors of his work and accomplishments, especially for people who are getting to know him, I wanted to first simply hear how Pramod tends to describe himself.Cheers to INDIASPORA for the spark!

In this episode, listeners will learn about Actantial Networks—graph-based representations of narratives where nodes are actors (such as people, institutions, or abstract entities) and edges represent the actions or relationships between them.  The one who will present these networks is our guest Armin Pournaki, a joint PhD candidate at the Max Planck Institute for Mathematics in the Sciences and the Laboratoire Lattice (ENS-PSL), who specializes in computational social science, where he develops methods to extract and analyze political narratives using natural language processing and network science.  Armin explains how these methods can expose conflicting narratives around the same events, as seen in debates on COVID-19, climate change, or the war in Ukraine. Listeners will also discover how this approach helps make large-scale discourse—from millions of tweets or political speeches—more transparent and interpretable, offering tools for studying polarization, issue alignment, and narrative-driven persuasion in digital societies.
