VR3 - It 's Thomas, Lydia, and Matt versus the entire National Review editorial board! Join us as we take on the conservative magazine's recent op-ed on why it is extremely rude to compare masked American federal agents of today who refuse to identify themselves as they grab innocent families off of the street and shove them into unmarked vans bound for concentration camps to masked Nazi German agents of 1933-1945 who refused to identify themselves as they grabbed innocent families off the street and shoved them into vans bound for concentration camps. Matt explains with historical examples why ICE is not NOT the Gestapo as we consider what we can learn from Nazi history. We celebrate the recent return of Maryland father Kilmar Abrego Garcia to the US after his illegal deportation to El Salvador with a take so bad that it is hard to believe that the whole thing wasn't actually published in The Onion. What was the audience for this willfully obtuse Newsweek op-ed praising the DOJ for finding a way to bring Abrego Garcia back other than the fact that the Supreme Court told them to, and what is this trying to say to them? Has this thing already aged worse than Stephen Miller? Finally: updates from Martha's Vineyard (last week's patron-only story) as Epstein attorney Alan Dershowitz and his crusade to bring down the considerable weight of the law against people who refuse to serve him tasty Polish food.

Bestselling author and Breitbart News editor-in-chief Alex Marlow joins us to discuss his latest book, Breaking the Law. In this in-depth conversation, Marlow explains his research into high-profile legal cases, the concept of “lawfare,” and how he believes political and legal systems intersect in today's America. We explore historical context, recent events, and potential reforms — all with a focus on understanding where the country's legal landscape might be headed.ABOUT BREAKING THE LAWAlex Marlow, editor-in-chief of Breitbart News and two-time New York Times bestselling author of Breaking the News and Breaking Biden, returns with his third book: BREAKING THE LAW: EXPOSING THE WEAPONIZATION OF AMERICA'S LEGAL SYSTEM AGAINST DONALD TRUMP (Threshold Editions; Hardcover; On-sale August 5, 2025), a fearless and thoroughly researched exposé on the new political battleground: the American legal system. In this urgent and gripping book, Marlow turns his sharp investigative lens to the legal cases targeting President Donald Trump-and what they mean for the future of the conservative movement and the rule of law in America. BREAKING THE LAW reveals how legal institutions are being repurposed as political weapons. Marlow not only exposes the players and tactics behind this unprecedented campaign but also makes bold predictions about where this trend is heading-and what conservatives must do to fight back. Hailed "a must read" by President Trump, Marlow's book is both timely and timeless. It's the first major retrospective on the 2024 election and how the legal war on Trump influenced voters, media narratives, and the conservative base. This is Alex Marlow at his most uncompromising and clear-eyed. With the same meticulous reporting and narrative drive that defined his previous works, BREAKING THE LAW offers a provocative and authoritative response to one of the most consequential legal and political stories of our time.ABOUT ALEX MARLOWAlexander Marlow is the New York Times bestselling author of BREAKING THE NEWS and BREAKING BIDEN.

Marianne Lewis is dean of the University of Cincinnati College of Business, and she previously served as dean of Bayes Business School at City, University of London. Marianne researches organizational paradoxes, including the tensions surrounding leadership and innovation. She has been recognized among the world's most-cited researchers in her field, having won numerous academic awards, and her work also appears in media outlets, such as Harvard Business Review, Fast Company, and Newsweek. Her latest book, Both/And Thinking is published by Harvard Business School Press. In this episode we discuss the following: I love Marianne's insight that the best leaders are not tough or kind, but rather both. Toughness and kindness are not opposite ends of a spectrum but rather two sides of the same coin. And any leader who pushes too hard on one, while ignoring the other, will not reach their potential. And I thought it was especially interesting to hear about the creative geniuses who also appreciated tension and paradoxes: motion vs rest, particle vs wave, harmony vs discord, light vs. dark, life vs death. The magic is in the tension. When it comes to leadership the best leaders are both tough and kind.

Learn how to hire A-players who deliver 10x ROI, build an employer brand that attracts top talent, and avoid the costly mistakes that drive elite performers away. What if I told you that the difference between hiring an A-player versus a C-player could mean the difference between a 10-to-1 ROI and barely breaking even? In this episode of Beyond Seven Figures, I sit down with executive career strategist Debra Boggs to explore the critical differences between A-players, B-players, and C-players in the workplace, and why most business owners are unknowingly sabotaging their ability to attract elite talent. We dive deep into the common mistakes entrepreneurs make when trying to hire top performers, including dragging out lengthy hiring processes that lose the best candidates and misunderstanding what truly motivates A-players beyond compensation. Debra and I also tackle the crucial issue of title-role misalignment - where companies hire a CMO but expect them to write email copy - and explore the real reasons why A-players leave organizations and how to prevent it through proper career development and engagement strategies. Plus, we discuss the importance of having a compelling vision that makes top talent want to join your mission, even if you can't pay the highest salary in the market. Debra Boggs is an award-winning entrepreneur and nationally recognized expert in executive career strategy. As CEO of D&S Executive Career Management, she has built one of the country's premier firms supporting senior leaders in navigating complex career transitions, landing board seats, and maximizing compensation in competitive markets. After launching D&S from the ground up nearly a decade ago, Debra scaled the business into a seven-figure firm with an elite team of experts serving high-level professionals around the globe. Her proven methodology has helped thousands of executives secure leadership roles at the world's most notable companies. Debra's thought leadership has been featured in Forbes, Fast Company, Newsweek, The Washington Post, The Wall Street Journal, and dozens of other media outlets, and she's a sought-after speaker for national conferences and private leadership events. KEY TAKEAWAYS: Hiring A-players can bring up to 10x the return compared to B or C players. Long and slow hiring processes can push top talent away to faster-moving companies. A strong employer brand helps attract the best candidates even for small businesses. Vision matters more than salary for many A-players who want to be part of something big. Clear job titles and KPIs prevent hiring the wrong person for the role. Retaining A-players requires growth opportunities and strong leadership support. Culture and alignment with company values play a big role in keeping top talent. Asking your team about their personal and career goals helps build loyalty and trust. Growing your business is hard, but it doesn't have to be. In this podcast, we will be discussing top level strategies for both growing and expanding your business beyond seven figures. The show will feature a mix of pure content and expert interviews to present key concepts and fundamental topics in a variety of different formats. We believe that this format will enable our listeners to learn the most from the show, implement more in their businesses, and get real value out of the podcast. Enjoy the show.

In this conversation, writer and author of The Mother Code, Ruthie Ackerman, shares her personal journey from being childfree to becoming a mother, exploring the complexities of motherhood, societal expectations, and the emotional struggles that accompany the decision to have children. You'll hear Ruthie and Keltie discuss: How Ruthie decided to pursue motherhood in spite of her ambivalence, and being only 55% confident in her choice to have kids. How being from a long lineage of women who left their children, meant Ruthie was scared she would do the same. Why a difference of opinion about kids meant the end of her marriage, and how Ruthie navigated dating while pursuing motherhood. Ruthie's experiences with egg freezing, IVF, and egg donation. How Ruthie's book, The Mother Code, seeks to dismantle traditional notions of motherhood, while highlighting the ambivalence many women feel about motherhood. Why those who become mothers need to identify and create their own version of motherhood, rather than the versions that have been given to them. As mentioned in the show: Find Ruthie online at www.ruthieackerman.com You can find her book, The Mother Code, all places that books are sold: ruthieackerman.com/the-mother-code And on Instagram: www.instagram.com/ruackerman/ About Ruthie: Ruthie began her writing career with a promise: to shine a light on the people, places, and ideas that are too often ignored. After a stint at the New York Times and a few years reporting on the economy for Forbes, she was awarded journalism fellowships to war-torn Liberia and Lebanon to showcase young people in both countries who were rebuilding their lives out of the ashes of destruction—and finding the resilience to push forward. In the decade since, she has profiled game-changing entrepreneurs and social activists and written extensively about the professional and financial advancement of women. Ruthie wrote a piece for the New York Times Modern Love column about her own failed egg freezing. “Don't Put All Your (Frozen) Eggs in One Basket,” which became the launching point for her memoir, The Mother Code: My Story of Love, Loss, And The Myths That Shape Us (May 2025, Penguin Random House), and shifted her focus from traditional reporting to personal stories. She started Ignite Writers Collective in 2019 as a way to work with other writers at all stages of their careers, sharing her insights from years as an editor and writer. Her clients have gotten book deals, published essays, and found the bravery to share their stories with the world. Ruthie's writing has been published in Vogue, Glamour, O Magazine, The New York Times, The Atlantic, The Wall Street Journal, Forbes, Salon, Slate, Newsweek, and more. Most recently, she was the Deputy Editor at ForbesWomen. She has a Master's in Journalism from NYU and lives in Brooklyn with her husband and their daughter. Ruthie's forthcoming memoir, The Mother Code, will be released in 2025 by Random House. __ Get details on an upcoming Kids or Childfree Workshop: kidsorchildfree.com/workshop Check out our free resources here, or at kidsorchildfree.com/free-resources And don't forget to subscribe, rate, and review The Kids or Childfree Podcast if you love what you're hearing!

Vineri expiră ultimul termen fixat de președintele american Donald Trump pentru ca Rusia să accepte o încetare a focului în Ucraina. Între timp, trimisul special al Casei Albe urmează să ajungă la Moscova. Presa internațională evaluează șansele acestei misiuni. După cum notează La Stampa ”emisarul Casei Albe, Steve Witkoff, este așteptat la Moscova, după ce optimismul lui Trump s-a evaporat odată cu eșuarea negocierilor ruso-ucrainene de la Istanbul. Termenul limită dat de Trump a fost scurtat de la 50 la 10 zile după recentele bombardamente ale Rusiei asupra orașelor ucrainene”. Ultimatumul expiră vineri, iar Andriy Yermak, șeful de cabinet al lui Volodimir Zelenski, a scris în The Washington Post că în această săptămână «lumii i s-ar putea oferi o oportunitate de a pune capăt războiului»”. (Sursa: Eurotopics). Publicația americană The Hill amintește la rândul său că ”președintele este din ce în ce mai frustrat de faptul că Vladimir Putin i-a ignorat apelurile pentru un acord de pace. Ultimul termen limită pentru Moscova ar expira tehnic vineri, deși Trump s-a dovedit flexibil în ceea ce privește impunerea de tarife vamale asupra țărilor terțe”. Potrivit analizei revistei Newsweek, trimiterea lui Witkoff ”este probabil menită să adauge o presiune suplimentară asupra Moscovei. Cu toate acestea, de la amenințările președintelui SUA, retorica de la Kremlin a sugerat că nu s-a schimbat nimic în strategia de război. Witkoff, un magnat imobiliar, s-a întâlnit deja cu Putin de mai multe ori la Moscova, dar liderul rus a respins în repetate rânduri planurile americane de încetare a focului”. Potrivit expertului consultat de publicația americană, ”Putin nu este pregătit să oprească războiul și nu va renunța la cererile sale ca Ucraina să predea părțile rămase din regiunile Donețk, Herson și Zaporijia, pe care le are încă sub control”. Expertul a spus că ”accentul pentru SUA ar trebui să fie acela de a închide lacunele care permit Rusiei să genereze venituri din vânzările de petrol și că activele rusești înghețate ar trebui folosite pentru a finanța ajutorul militar pentru Ucraina”. Expertul consultat de RBC Ucraina nu exclude posibilitatea ca ”rușii să fi testat, prin canale diplomatice închise, propunerea de a discuta și de a găsi un teren comun. Witkoff va fi cel mai probabil folosit doar ca instrument. Spre deosebire de vizitele anterioare, este puțin probabil să transmită vreun mesaj de la Trump. Sarcina sa principală va fi să primească ceva de la Putin și să i-l transmită lui Trump. Aceasta ar putea fi foarte bine viziunea Rusiei asupra modului de a se pune capăt războiului - o propunere în baza căreia rușii ar fi dispuși să vină la masa negocierilor. În acest context, Politico observă că Vladimir Putin trage de timp. El ”ezită să răspundă ultimatumului lui Donald Trump pentru un armistițiu. Kremlinul continuă să încetinească orice posibile negocieri de încetare a focului cu Kievul, purtătorul de cuvânt afirmând că președintele rus Vladimir Putin „nu exclude” o întâlnire cu omologul său ucrainean - dar numai după ce se vor efectua „lucrări” încă nespecificate”.

What's happening in CX today? In this episode, we'll explore the gap between CX ambition and execution. Camille Kremer, Senior Director of Customer Experience at Holiday Inn Club Vacations, joins Jeannie Walters for this CX Pulse Check to share how her team built a comprehensive CX program over five years—drawing on the powerful metaphor of bamboo growth: years of unseen root work before visible success emerges.With only 17% of executives confident in their CX delivery, despite nearly half calling it a top priority, we unpack what it takes to bridge that divide. Camille walks us through how her team built trust, accountability, and alignment, warning that mismatched expectations are the “rotten tomato” that can spoil even the best CX plans. We also explore how Verizon is using AI not to replace humans, but to enhance experiences—automating routine tasks while expanding human support.Throughout, one theme stands out: lasting CX transformation depends on psychological safety. Innovation only happens when teams feel safe enough to try, fail, and learn.About Camille Kremer:Camille is the Senior Director of Customer Experience at Holiday Inn Club Vacations.

The explosive inside story of the October Surprise conspiracy, a stunning act of treason that changed American history. New York Times bestselling author Craig Unger reveals his thirty-year investigation into the secret collusion between Ronald Reagan's 1980 presidential campaign and Iran, raising urgent questions about what happens when foreign meddling in our elections goes unpunished and what gets remembered when the political price for treason is victory.It was a tinderbox of an accusation. In April 1991, the New York Times ran an op-ed alleging that Ronald Reagan's 1980 presidential campaign had conspired with the Iranian government to delay the release of 52 American hostages until after the 1980 election. The Iranian hostage crisis was President Jimmy Carter's largest political vulnerability, and his lack of success freeing them ultimately sealed his fate at the ballot box. In return for keeping Americans in captivity until Reagan assumed the oath of office, the Republicans had secretly funneled arms to Iran. Treasonous and illegal, the operation—planned and executed by Reagan's campaign manager Bill Casey—amounted to a shadow foreign policy run by private citizens that ensured Reagan's victory.Investigative journalist Craig Unger was one of the first reporters covering the October Surprise—initially for Esquire and then Newsweek—and while attempting to unravel the mystery, he was fired, sued, and ostracized by the Washington press corps, as a counter narrative took hold: The October Surprise was a hoax. Though Unger later recovered his name and became a bestselling author on Republican abuses of power, the October Surprise remained his white whale, the project he—as well as legendary investigative journalist, the late Robert Parry—worked on late at night and between assignments.In Den of Spies, Unger reveals the definitive story of the October Surprise, going inside his three-decade reporting odyssey, along with Parry's never-before-seen archives, and sharing startling truths about what really happened in 1980. The result is a real-life political thriller filled with double agents, CIA operatives, slippery politicians, KGB documents, wealthy Republicans, and dogged journalists. A timely and provocative history that presages our Trump-era political scandals, Den of Spies demonstrates the stakes of allowing the politics of the moment to obscure the writing of our history.https://amzn.to/4ohW3GhBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-opperman-report--1198501/support.

Den of Spies: Reagan, Carter, and the Secret History of the Treason That Stole the White House Craig Unger The explosive inside story of the October Surprise conspiracy, a stunning act of treason that changed American history. New York Times bestselling author Craig Unger reveals his thirty-year investigation into the secret collusion between Ronald Reagan's 1980 presidential campaign and Iran, raising urgent questions about what happens when foreign meddling in our elections goes unpunished and what gets remembered when the political price for treason is victory.It was a tinderbox of an accusation. In April 1991, the New York Times ran an op-ed alleging that Ronald Reagan's 1980 presidential campaign had conspired with the Iranian government to delay the release of 52 American hostages until after the 1980 election. The Iranian hostage crisis was President Jimmy Carter's largest political vulnerability, and his lack of success freeing them ultimately sealed his fate at the ballot box. In return for keeping Americans in captivity until Reagan assumed the oath of office, the Republicans had secretly funneled arms to Iran. Treasonous and illegal, the operation—planned and executed by Reagan's campaign manager Bill Casey—amounted to a shadow foreign policy run by private citizens that ensured Reagan's victory.Investigative journalist Craig Unger was one of the first reporters covering the October Surprise—initially for Esquire and then Newsweek—and while attempting to unravel the mystery, he was fired, sued, and ostracized by the Washington prehttps://amzn.to/4o97NLjBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-opperman-report--1198501/support.

This week, comedian Zach Noe Towers joins Newsweek's H. Alan Scott for a whirlwind ride through the pop culture circus you didn't know you needed. We're talking the totally random (and kind of perfect?) romance rumors between Pamela Anderson and Liam Neeson, the alleged Katy Perry–Justin Trudeau connection that has the internet ina. tizzy, and why Sydney Sweeney can't even pose for American Eagle without sparking a controversy. Plus, we're giving our unfiltered thoughts on the Luigi Mangione musical (yes, it's a thing) and the shocking sight of Jason Momoa without a beard—spoiler alert: not a good look. If you love gossip with a wink, celebrity absurdity, and a dash of “did that really happen?”—this one's for you.

Marc Maron joins Newsweek's H. Alan Scott to break down his incredible new HBO comedy special, Panicked. Holding nothing back, he argues that a comic doesn't have a responsibility to be political in the age of Trump. "I do not think it's that comics' responsibility to do anything but be funny." To that, Maron roasts the left for its infighting, joking that progressives may have “annoyed the average American into fascism.” But we go deeper than politics. Maron reflects on how processing tragedy has allowed him to take greater comedic risks, revealing there's “a part of me that's a little softer and a little more vulnerable and fragile underneath all the noise.” From the anxiety of modern life to the simple truth that “democracy doesn't work without tolerance,” this is an essential chat from a comedy master.

This episode pulls back the curtain on what actually goes down in family court and why women like you and me need to step into the CEO role of our divorce process.I talk with Amy Polacko, a woman who's been through it, wrote a book about it, and now helps other women survive it. We cover everything from strategic silence and choosing the right attorney, to the "he's such a good guy" nonsense that courts just eat up.Here's the low-down: You could be framed. Literally. Not metaphorically. Actually framed. So let's talk about how to not let that happen.Key Takeaways: You must be the CEO of your divorce. Do not—I repeat, do NOT—hand the wheel to someone else and hope for the best.The justice system isn't always just. Especially if you're a woman who dares to leave an abuser.Document everything and hire smart. Get a coach before you get an attorney. Better yet, get Amy. Abusers have a playbook. And Amy knows what's on every page.Your “Christian” husband might still screw you over. Faith language doesn't mean he's safe. It might just mean he's scarier.Kids grow up.

In this episode of The Refresh, host Kait unpacks some of the most significant shifts in media, search, and publishing. Alphabet reported record-breaking Q2 earnings driven by cloud and search, despite concerns about AI competition. Newsweek is proactively adjusting its business model to combat AI-related traffic threats, and the Paramount–Skydance merger finally got the FCC's green light, complete with political controversy and a timely South Park takedown. Alphabet's Blowout Quarter: Alphabet hit $96.4 billion in Q2 revenue, driven by strong performance in cloud (up 32%) and ad sales (up 10.4%), with YouTube capturing nearly 13% of all U.S. TV screen time. Publisher Impact from Generative AI: Google's AI overviews and search innovations are reducing referral traffic to publishers, with its network division down $100M this quarter—an early signal of monetization shifts. Newsweek's Monetization Overhaul: Facing declining search-driven traffic, Newsweek aims to lower its ad revenue dependency by investing in healthcare adtech, subscriptions, and syndication deals to charge AI bots for crawling content. Paramount–Skydance Merger Approved: The FCC approved the controversial Paramount-Skydance deal, just days after a $16M Trump settlement and CBS' cancellation of The Late Show with Stephen Colbert. South Park Weighs In: South Park's season premiere mocked the Paramount merger and its political ties—airing hours after a $1.5B content deal was finalized between the show's creators and Paramount.

"Student loan forgiveness is a bribe for young voters," shouted Newsweek in 2022. "Harris's call for price controls on groceries is more pandering than policy," declared The Hill in 2024. "Free for all: Democratic socialist's policy pitches face tough fiscal reality in New York," warned Politico this year. Every time an elected official or political candidate proposes a policy with even the slightest hint of actual populism, U.S. pundits, analysts and alleged experts line up to tell us that it's just a scheme to "buy votes." Offering student-debt relief is just cheating. Lowering grocery costs is simply pandering. Eliminating public-transit fares is merely bribing voters. These initiatives aren't developed in good faith in order to improve the lives of the public; they're cynical ploys to help a given politician get ahead. We know that some policymakers make promises that they'll never fulfill, or chisel away at robust and universal proposals, or backtrack on bold and transformative ideas. This happens all the time. But all too often, media's default position is to assert that even the most modest of economically populist proposals are mere strategies to buy votes, revealing grim truths about what our media class seems to think the responsibilities of lawmakers and governments are. On this episode, we examine the media tendency to assume that anything remotely close to populism is somehow cheating, playing the game on "god mode" or "democracy game genie," and ought to be discouraged by Serious People, putting a sinister spin on what is simply Doing Things People Want. Our guest is FAIR's Janine Jackson.
