Podcasts about Niels

He's back! We are absolutely thrilled to welcome Niels to the microphone once again. You know him as the brilliant photographer behind Capturing Disney Parks, a fellow member of the Insidears family, and the co-host of the Air Magique podcast. He joins us for a conversation we have been wanting to have for a very long time. Niels knows Disneyland Paris like the back of his hand. But he has also spent time at Walt Disney World, and even better, he has a trip to Florida on the horizon. We thought it was the perfect moment to put him on the spot and compare the two resorts from every possible angle. We cover a lot of ground in this one. Expect chat about: The sheer size difference and how it changes your approach to planning a holiday Dining reservations and whether you can still be spontaneous Merchandise hunting and the thrill of the exclusive find Head-to-head attraction comparisons, including the two very different versions of Big Thunder Mountain and Pirates of the Caribbean Stage shows, including Festival of the Lion King versus Rhythms of the Pride Lands The paid line-skipping systems and how they stack up But we saved the best for last. Right at the end, we asked Niels a question that moves beyond logistics and into something much more personal. It is a curveball about the soul of each resort and how one factor changes EVERYTHING. His answer was worth waiting for. A huge thank you to our sponsor Easy Go Shuttle for making this episode possible.

In een nieuwe aflevering van de voetbalpodcast Kick-off praten Valentijn Driessen, Mike Verweij en Hein Keijser na over de bijzondere en plotse aanstelling van Kees van Wonderen bij Feyenoord. De voormalig speler van de club lijkt technisch directeur te worden, een keuze die volgens Driessen wederom een gok is aangezien Van Wonderen amper ervaring heeft op dit vlak. Verder: Bodø/Glimt blijft verrassen kunnen zij nog verder komen in de Champions League, de KNVB oefent druk uit op gokkende coaches en spelers en logisch dat Excelsior de poot stijf houdt rond het eventuele vertrek van technisch directeur Niels van Duinen.

Na het uitreiken van de Osmium Awards denken podcastpresentatoren Niels en Pim eindelijk even tevreden achterover te kunnen leunen. Maar niets blijkt minder waar wanneer ze 's ochtends de krant openslaan. Tot hun verbazing lezen ze dat Helmut Lotti plots het middelpunt is van twee culturele veldslagen. In Nederland zouden tributebands de popsector uithollen, terwijl in België specifiek het btw-tarief op rockconcerten omhoog dreigt te gaan. Is onze held straks in Nederland niet meer welkom op het podium, om in België noodgedwongen alleen nog klassieke aria's te brengen? Osmium - de zwaarste podcast in het Nederlands - aarzelt geen moment en kruipt achter de microfoon om Helmut te hulp te schieten. Er valt namelijk best wat ijskoud water over de verhitte discussies te gieten. Is de opmars van tributebands een verdringing van "echte" muziek of houdt het juist de begroting van poppodia overeind? En is er wel een onderscheid te maken tussen haute couture en low-brow vertier? Echter, terwijl politici en opiniemakers elkaar in de haren vliegen, dreigt er iets veel belangrijkers onopgemerkt voorbij te gaan: Converge brengt voor het eerst in negen jaar tijd een nieuw album uit. Is de band die aan de wieg stond van deze podcast nog steeds urgent of is het meer bezig met het plannen van zijn eigen begrafenis? Wellicht is tegen die tijd het glas van Osmium al leeggegoten.

De All-Star Break is voorbij, iedereen heeft wat kunnen proberen herbronnen. De laatste rechte lijn richting de play-offs is ingezet. Nu ja, de laatste rechte lijn.. Er moet nog meer dan een kwart van het reguliere seizoen gespeeld worden. Het All-Star weekend was verrassend genoeg de moeite en er zijn ongelofelijk veel dingen bij gekomen om het over te hebben. Jullie hebben ook heel wat vragen doorgestuurd en zo heeft Dennis een hele waslijst, die hij bespreekt met zijn broer Niels.

Iben Mondrup forlader sin familie, fordi hun møder Niels, der også er forfatter. Også ham bliver hun gift med, og de lever en tilværelse, der primært foregår fra soveværelset. Det er der, de skriver, dyrker sex og drikker litervis af Cremant som de har stående i hele kasser. Sammen udforsker de grænserne for, hvad man kan i et forhold. Sex har altid været en stærk drivkraft i hendes liv, men til sidst får hun alligevel nok. Og hun gør det, hun plejer at gøre: Bliver forelsket i en ny.

Hans blik var fæstnet på brevet foran sig.En: Inside his office, Niels, a history professor with a secret fascination for unsolved mysteries, sat with his gaze fixed on the letter before him.Da: Brevet kom uden afsender.En: The letter came with no sender.Da: Der var kun en enkelt sætning: "Under isen ligger sandheden."En: There was only a single sentence: "Under the ice lies the truth."Da: Niels kiggede ud af det store vindue og mærkede en gysen ved tanken om, hvad der kunne ligge under den frosne overflade af Nyhavn.En: Niels looked out of the large window, feeling a shiver at the thought of what might lie beneath the frozen surface of Nyhavn.Da: Niels elskede gåder, men dette brev bragte uro.En: Niels loved mysteries, but this letter brought unease.Da: Han vidste, at han måtte finde ud af, hvad det betød.En: He knew he had to find out what it meant.Da: Men var det klogt?En: But was it wise?Da: Kunne han stole på Kaj og Ingrid, hans nærmeste venner?En: Could he trust Kaj and Ingrid, his closest friends?Da: De havde altid støttet ham, men han frygtede for deres sikkerhed.En: They had always supported him, but he feared for their safety.Da: Alligevel besluttede Niels sig for at følge instruktionerne.En: Nevertheless, Niels decided to follow the instructions.Da: Han var ikke en mand, der vendte tilbage, når først han havde sat sig et mål.En: He was not a man who turned back once he set himself a goal.Da: Han gik ned til havnen, hans sko knirkede i sneen.En: He went down to the harbor, his shoes creaking in the snow.Da: Kaj og Ingrid mødte ham ved kajen.En: Kaj and Ingrid met him at the quay.Da: Niels havde talt med dem i telefonen og kunne ikke skjule sin nervøsitet.En: Niels had spoken with them on the phone and could not hide his nervousness.Da: Han fortalte dem om brevet.En: He told them about the letter.Da: Ingrid kiggede skeptisk, men blev også nysgerrig.En: Ingrid looked skeptical but also curious.Da: Kaj rystede på hovedet, "Det lyder farligt, men jeg er med."En: Kaj shook his head, "It sounds dangerous, but I'm in."Da: De bevægede sig hen mod den del af havnen, som Niels mente kunne huse en hemmelighed.En: They moved toward the part of the harbor that Niels thought could hold a secret.Da: Der var en lille båd, som kunne komme tættere på isen.En: There was a small boat that could get closer to the ice.Da: De satte sig forsigtigt ind.En: They carefully got in.Da: Niels brugte en hakke til at bryde isen.En: Niels used a pick to break the ice.Da: De andre hjalp.En: The others helped.Da: Pludselig brød en stor bane af is, og en trækasse kom til syne.En: Suddenly, a large sheet of ice broke away, and a wooden crate emerged.Da: Hans hjerte bankede hurtigere.En: His heart beat faster.Da: Men de var ikke alene.En: But they were not alone.Da: En skikkelse kom frem fra skyggerne.En: A figure emerged from the shadows.Da: En mand, der også havde fulgt brevet.En: A man who had also followed the letter.Da: "Det er min," råbte han.En: "It's mine," he shouted.Da: Niels stod fast.En: Niels stood firm.Da: "Vi deler det."En: "We share it."Da: Kaj og Ingrid stod ved hans side.En: Kaj and Ingrid stood by his side.Da: De åbnede kassen og fandt gamle dokumenter og kort.En: They opened the crate and found old documents and maps.Da: Det var en skat, ja, men ikke materielt.En: It was a treasure, yes, but not a material one.Da: Skatten var en del af Københavns historie, bevaret gennem tidens tand.En: The treasure was a part of Copenhagen's history, preserved through the ages.Da: Manden trak sig væk med et tilfreds smil.En: The man withdrew with a satisfied smile.Da: "Jeg ville bare sikre mig, det blev fundet af de rette."En: "I just wanted to make sure it was found by the right people."Da: Da Niels kom hjem, reflekterede han over dagen.En: When Niels came home, he reflected on the day.Da: Det var aldrig skatten, han søgte.En: It was never the treasure he sought.Da: Det var eventyret, forståelsen for gåderne og at dele sin rejse.En: It was the adventure, the understanding of mysteries, and sharing his journey.Da: Han følte sig mere forbundet til Kaj og Ingrid end nogensinde før.En: He felt more connected to Kaj and Ingrid than ever before.Da: Næste dag, da sneen fortsat faldt over Nyhavn, samlede de sig igen.En: The next day, as the snow continued to fall over Nyhavn, they gathered again.Da: Niels havde en lille gave til hver af dem - kopier af deres fund.En: Niels had a small gift for each of them—copies of their find.Da: De skålede med varm kakao på caféen ved vandet.En: They toasted with hot cocoa at the café by the water.Da: Det var begyndelsen på mange eventyr sammen.En: It was the beginning of many adventures together.Da: Niels havde åbnet sig for verden, og det føltes godt.En: Niels had opened himself to the world, and it felt good.

Je kent het vast. Dat zoeken naar een nieuw onderwerp. Iets fris. Iets anders. En tegelijkertijd dat gemak van terugvallen op wat je al kent. Nog een keer datzelfde straatje. Nog een portret in hetzelfde licht. Voor hobbyisten voelt herhaling soms als vastzitten. Voor beroepsfotografen juist als veilig werken.In deze aflevering praten je fotografievrienden Niels en Michiel over het spanningsveld tussen zoeken en herhalen. Over waarom herhaling geen zwakte is, maar een kracht kan worden. En over hoe je, juist door hetzelfde onderwerp vaker te fotograferen, verdieping vindt. Voor vrij werk én voor opdrachten. Want niet elke foto hoeft nieuw te zijn. Soms moet hij alleen beter worden.

El Congreso tramita una ley contra el maltrato a mayores, afectando a uno de cada seis y con amplio respaldo institucional. La borrasca Niels ha provocado casi 800 incidencias en Galicia, con alerta roja por viento y olas de hasta 10 metros en la Costa Vasca. En Cataluña, 170 incidentes y suspensión de clases. Mallorca sufrió vientos de 150 km/h, afectando vuelos y tráfico marítimo. En Andalucía, 3000 personas fueron desalojadas por lluvias y socavones; farmacéuticos rurales aseguraron la medicación.

Maquinistas de Adif denuncian inactividad prolongada (pese a sueldos de 50.000 euros) y la falta de homologación de nuevos trenes. La línea C4 de Cercanías Madrid recupera su servicio habitual.

Cataluña suspende actividades (vientos 100km/h); Andalucía desaloja 3.000, cierra 18 colegios; Castilla-La Mancha activa nivel 2 por inundaciones. Asturias, Galicia, País Vasco (olas 10m) y Madrid también afectadas. Se observa mayor obediencia ciudadana.

In deze uitzending van De Nieuwe Wereld gaat Marlies Dekkers in gesprek met experts Bert Slagter (Bitcoin Alpha) en Niels Koerts (Stockwatch) over de groeiende chaos rondom de vermogensbelasting in Box 3.Terwijl de Europese Commissie lidstaten juist aanmoedigt om burgers te laten beleggen om hun eigen toekomst veilig te stellen, lijkt de Nederlandse politiek de tegenovergestelde weg in te slaan. Met het voorstel om vanaf 2028 belasting te heffen op "papieren rendementen" (vermogensaanwas), dreigen er grote onrechtmatigheden voor de gewone belegger en ondernemer.In dit gesprek duiken we in de vijf grote "weefouten" van het nieuwe systeem, kijken we naar het succesvolle Zweedse model en bespreken we waarom dit wel eens het volgende grote politieke schandaal zou kunnen worden.Bronnen en links bij deze uitzending: StockWatch artikel Box 3 Niels Koerts: https://www.stockwatch.nl/nieuwe-box-3-is-een-totale-ramp-voor-particuliere-beleggers/Artikelen van Bert Slagter: https://bitcoinalpha.nl/auteur/bert-slagter/Steun DNWMaak het geluid van de Nieuwe Wereld mogelijk.

Je kent het vast. Je begint met fotograferen omdat je het leuk vindt. Omdat je wil kijken. Omdat je even uit je hoofd wil. En dan gebeurt er iets. Iemand vraagt of je ook een headshot kunt maken. Of foto's voor een website. Of een event. Ineens heeft je fotografie een functie. En precies dát moment is spannend. Want nu gaat het niet alleen meer over wat jij mooi vindt, maar over wat een foto moet doen. Voor iemand anders.We praten in deze aflevering over het moment waarop fotografie meer wordt dan een hobby. Over vrij werk dat veilig voelt en opdrachten die verantwoordelijkheid met zich meebrengen. Over groei die niet zit in beter worden, maar in toepassen. In ja zeggen. In ontdekken dat je werk ook buiten je eigen bubbel kan bestaan. Zonder dat je meteen alles hoeft om te gooien. Iets met je werk doen begint niet bij een KvK-nummer, maar bij serieus nemen wat er al is.

Tre mål i åbent spil - det ser man ikke hver dag! Ikke desto mindre var det det, som fansene på Emirates Stadium - inklusiv Niels - oplevede i lørdags, hvor Sunderland blev besejret 3-0. Martin Zubimendi agerede dåseåbner med et flot mål fra kanten af feltet, og i anden halveg kom Viktor Gyökeres på banen og udviskede enhver tvivl om pointtab med to scoringer. Svenskeren har nu været involveret i otte mål i de sidste otte kampe og har tilmed fået titlen som månedens spiller i Arsenal. Ham snakker vi selvfølgelig om i denne PL-udsendelse, hvor vi også vender stemningen på Emirates med Niels og taler om titelkampen mod Manchester City.

conversation gave Niels courage.Da: Han følte sig inspireret, som om verden var lidt større end før.En: He felt inspired, as if the world was a little bigger than before.Da: Da de vendte tilbage til kontoret, føltes det som om noget havde ændret sig.En: When they returned to the office, it felt as if something had changed.Da: Ikke i kontoret, men i Niels selv.En: Not in the office, but in Niels himself.Da: Han følte en ny energi.En: He felt a new energy.Da: Ligesom sneen, der dækkede træerne, kunne små ændringer bringe skønhed og nyt liv.En: Like the snow covering the trees, small changes could bring beauty and new life.Da: Niels satte sig ved sit skrivebord.En: Niels sat at his desk.Da: Han tænkte på de små skridt mod forandring.En: He thought about the small steps toward change.Da:

but they require a first step.Da: Og det havde han taget.En: And he had taken it.Da: Han smilede for sig selv.En: He smiled to himself.Da: Det første skridt var altid det sværeste, men nu vidste han,

Uvished er ofte værre end en klar afvisning. Nej er fx bedre end måske, når jeg spørger min kone, om vi skal gå til dans. Hvis hun siger nej, kan jeg i stedet gå til badminton med en ven. Dagens gæst har undersøgt, hvad der sker med os, når vi som borgere i velfærdsstaten bliver holdt ud i strakt arm. Når vores barn ikke vil i skole, når vores forældre skal på plejehjem, når vi skal tilbage fra en sygemelding, eller når vi vil have byggetilladelse til en carport. Så får vi ikke et svar, vi får et måske. Men "midlertidighedens regime" risikerer at fjerne vores tillid til, at vi kan få hjælp. Vært: Svend Brinkmann, professor i psykologi. Gæst: Niels Åkerstrøm, professor i politisk ledelse ved Copenhagen Business School og medforfatter til bogen "Vi hører, hvad du siger". Tilrettelægger: Christoffer Heide Høyer. Glæd dig til dagens episode, som du nu kan høre i DR Lyd.

Vi troede, vi skulle lave en sjov live-episode om katastrofefilm. I stedet lavede vi en katastrofe for åben scene. Med publikum. I Grand. Perfekt. Allerede fra start var noget off: lydproblemer, dårlige varsler og en fornemmelse af, at noget havde inviteret sig selv indenfor. En episode, der skulle handle om film, hvor alt går galt, valgte konsekvent selv at gå galt. Læn dig tilbage og hør katastrofen udspille sig foran et live publikum, der tappert bliver siddende, mens humøret, håbet og viljen til at leve langsomt siver ud af salen. Og vi må lige understrege, at vi fandt på episodens titel INDEN vi optog den... Ask vælter første dominobrik med 'When the Wind Blows' (1986). En animeret feelgood-film om atomkrig til folk, der hader glæde. Et ældre britisk ægtepar følger statens gode råd, mens verden stille og roligt går under omkring dem. Stemningen dør, men publikum overlever med nød og næppe. Dette ser Niels og tænker: "Det kan jeg gøre bedre... jeg mener, værre!" og prompte hiver han 'Threads' (1984) frem. BBC's nådesløse undersøgelse af, hvad der sker hvis alle dør og ingen lærer noget, sætter virkelig gang i festen. Trøstesløs realisme, forkullede fremtidsudsigter og kollektiv dødsangst. For at redde aftenen (og sig selv) smider Mr. Sunshine (!) derefter 'The Fantastic Four' (1994) på bordet: Roger Corman, en million dollars, og en Marvel-film så katastrofal, at den aldrig udkom. Sonny prøver tappert at være den voksne på scenen med 'Rollercoaster' (1977). Rutsjebaner, terrorisme og tv-stemning. Der er sådan set ikke meget galt med filmen - passer godt til Moviebox - men ér det overhovedet en katastrofefilm? Bedøm selv. Til alle jer i salen (og jer der lytter med derhjemme) tak fordi I blev siddende. Tak fordi I ikke rejste jer og forlod Grand i tavs protest, hvilket ellers tydeligvis var den mest fornuftige ting at gøre. Vi lover (måske), at vi aldrig laver en katastrofefilmaften igen. Vi lover (helt sikkert), at vi ikke lærer noget af det. Men lige meget hvad, så HUSK: Spol altid episoden tilbage, når du har lyttet færdigt. Med venlig hilsen,Ask, Sonny, Niels & Casper

Je kent het wel. Je maakt een foto en wil meteen weten of-ie gelukt is. Je kijkt op je schermpje. Twijfelt. Of voelt je juist trots. Maar wat gebeurt er als je die foto een week later pas bekijkt? Of een maand? In deze aflevering praten je fotografievrienden Niels en Michiel over tijd. Niet als vijand, maar als medemaker.We hebben het over afstand nemen, over emotie die vervaagt en over hoe je oordeel verandert. Soms valt een foto keihard door de mand. Soms wint hij juist aan kracht. Tijd helpt je anders te kijken. Eerlijker. Niet meer als maker, maar als kijker. Want een goede foto hoeft niet meteen goed te zijn.

For øjeblikket diskuterer vi, hvem der burde modtage en fødevarecheck - og nok især, hvem der ikke burde. I det hele taget går der næppe en dag, uden at vi mener noget om velfærdsstaten. Måske synes vi, at vi burde bruge flere penge på de ældre og mindre på folkeskolen, eller måske mere på psykiatrien og mindre på kontanthjælp. Til gengæld tænker vi sjældent over det modsatte - altså hvordan forvaltningen opfatter os som borgere. Vi ved selvfølgelig godt, at vi grundlæggende er retssubjekter, og vi mærker det, når vi træder ind i forvaltningens mange systemer og forvandles fra privatpersoner til patienter i sundhedssystemet, til elever i uddannelsessystemet, til jobsøgende i beskæftigelsessystemet, til anklagede i retssystemet osv. osv. De måder, forvaltningen opfatter os på, forandrer sig ikke kun afhængigt af, hvilke systemer vi befinder os i, men også over tid i takt med, at forvaltningens organisering har udviklet sig. Udsyn taler med Niels Åkerstrøm Andersen, professor i politisk ledelse ved Copenhagen Business School, om, hvorvidt vi bør reflektere mere over, hvordan forvaltningen egentlig betragter os som borgere, for noget tyder på, at relationen er ved at forandre sig grundlæggende, og det er selve vores retsstat, der er på spil. Vært: Kaspar Colling Nielsen.

In this episode, Niels hosts Yoav Git to explore inflation risk, bond fragility, and the changing role of trend following in a world defined by supply shocks and declining trust. Drawing on recent research and market behavior, the conversation examines why traditional bond allocations struggle during inflationary regimes and how commodity trend strategies may offer structural resilience. The discussion spans geopolitics, deglobalization, energy markets, fixed income autocorrelation, and the limits of forecasting macro outcomes. Rather than predicting inflation's path, the episode focuses on portfolio construction that can endure multiple regimes. What emerges is a disciplined argument for robustness over precision in an increasingly unstable global system.-----50 YEARS OF TREND FOLLOWING BOOK AND BEHIND-THE-SCENES VIDEO FOR ACCREDITED INVESTORS - CLICK HERE-----Follow Niels on Twitter, LinkedIn, YouTube or via the TTU website.IT's TRUE ? – most CIO's read 50+ books each year – get your FREE copy of the Ultimate Guide to the Best Investment Books ever written here.And you can get a free copy of my latest book “Ten Reasons to Add Trend Following to Your Portfolio” here.Learn more about the Trend Barometer here.Send your questions to info@toptradersunplugged.comAnd please share this episode with a like-minded friend and leave an honest Rating & Review on iTunes or Spotify so more people can discover the podcast.Follow Yoav on LinkedIn.Episode TimeStamps:00:00 - Introduction and series context01:08 - Inflation back on the radar02:38 - Recent podcast influences and inflation narratives06:56 - Geopolitics, trust, and market fragmentation08:52 - Commodities, volatility, and supply driven moves10:48 - Trend performance and early 2026 conditions11:30 - Fixed income, FX, and emerging market trends17:26 - The all weather portfolio problem18:18 - Bonds, inflation regimes, and correlation breakdowns22:39 - Commodity trend as a defensive building block27:01 - Are markets signaling higher inflation ahead30:04 - What...

As the long era of neoliberal certainty frays, Mark Blyth argues that we are drifting back toward a 19th century world of rival blocs, imperial habits and dangerous illusions. In this conversation, he traces how repeated “software crashes” of capitalism produced inflation, austerity, populism and now a return to industrial policy and great power confrontation. He connects deficits, demographics, migration, and housing with the lived reality of stagnant wages and rising prices. Along the way, he questions central bank mythology, challenges deficit obsession, and asks whether politics can adapt before events force a far harsher reset.-----50 YEARS OF TREND FOLLOWING BOOK AND BEHIND-THE-SCENES VIDEO FOR ACCREDITED INVESTORS - CLICK HERE-----Follow Niels on Twitter, LinkedIn, YouTube or via the TTU website.IT's TRUE ? – most CIO's read 50+ books each year – get your FREE copy of the Ultimate Guide to the Best Investment Books ever written here.And you can get a free copy of my latest book “Ten Reasons to Add Trend Following to Your Portfolio” here.Learn more about the Trend Barometer here.Send your questions to info@toptradersunplugged.comAnd please share this episode with a like-minded friend and leave an honest Rating & Review on iTunes or Spotify so more people can discover the podcast.Follow Alan on LinkedIn.Follow Mark on Twitter.Episode TimeStamps: 00:00 - Cold open and warning on a return to 19th century style imperialism00:23 - Niels and Alan introduce Mark Blyth and set the macro context02:24 - From Scottish childhood to monetarism and the politics of macro ideas08:33 - Capitalism as hardware and software and the recurring crashes of each regime15:32 - The slow death of neoliberalism and the rise of populist reactions18:57 - Deficits, austerity, bond vigilantes and why the house is on fire anyway23:49 - Affordability, grocery prices, housing and the disconnect in elite dashboards29:02 - Generational conflict, asset concentration and the missing left...
