Podcasts about Nikola

Meet Jordan Darling, a serial entrepreneur whose journey spans from building the first electric stand-up jet ski to disrupting the $200B building materials industry with his new company, Supersede. In this episode of The Mark Haney Show, Jordan shares how he turned his early passion for engineering into a successful startup that was acquired by Nikola, what he learned during hyper-growth, and why he's now on a mission to reinvent plywood using recycled plastic waste. Jordan breaks down how Supersede's Marine Board is becoming a high-performance, waterproof, fully recyclable alternative to plywood and OSB—solving massive problems like deforestation, supply chain failures, and America's plastic recycling crisis. We also dive into entrepreneurship, risk, partnership, fatherhood, and how he's building not one but two companies (Supersede + Dupe Loops) with his closest friends. If you care about startups, innovation, sustainability, manufacturing, or the future of construction, this is a must-watch.

Financial Intelligence. Nikola Jakic from Compass App AI combines your financial data with context to give you confident decision-making.Summary of PodcastIntroductions and backgroundKevin and Graham introduce themselves and welcome their guest Nikola Jakic. Nikola is the founder of a financial AI tool called Compass AI. He provides background on how he came up with the idea for Compass AI based on his experience as a CEO of a software company. Then he discusses the limitations he faced in managing the financial aspects of the business.Overview of Compass AINikola explains that Compass AI combines a company's financial data with business context. Doing this provides insights and recommendations to help founders and fractional CFOs make better decisions. The tool can connect to accounting systems like Xero and QuickBooks, categorise transactions, generate forecasts, and allow users to interact with the data through natural language prompts.Target market and positioningKevin and Graham discuss how Compass AI is positioned to serve small and medium-sized businesses. This as opposed to targeting the enterprise market that many financial software tools focus on. Nikola shares that his initial target audience was founders, but he has also found interest from fractional CFOs who can use the tool to provide more value to their clients.Competitive landscape and growth strategyThe group explores Compass AI's competitive landscape, noting that while there are tools targeting CFOs and larger enterprises. He explains there is less focus on the small business market that Nikola is pursuing. They discuss Nikola's strategy of starting with founders and growing with them as their businesses scale, rather than chasing the enterprise market directly.Recap and next stepsGraham and Kevin provide a positive recap of the discussion and encourage Nikola to continue focusing on his target market and leveraging the natural, conversational style he demonstrated during the podcast. They express enthusiasm for the product and suggest ways Nikola could use snippets of the conversation for marketing purposes.The Next 100 Days Podcast Co-HostsGraham ArrowsmithGraham founded Finely Fettled ten years ago to help business owners and marketers market to affluent and high-net-worth customers.

Greetings and welcome to Reviews That Burn: Series Reviews, part of Books That Burn. Series Reviews discuss at least three books in a series and cover the overarching themes and development of the story across several books. Full Text Here Powerful noble families known as the beat-of-fours, answerable only to a ruler and the mysterious, godlike fae, scheme and squabble amongst themselves, and go to war for the chance to put one of their own on the throne. But the fae might be pulling more strings than the nobles realize and they definitely have their favorites. A series of love stories loosely centered around the political crisis that led to the current ruler, featuring oblivious librarians, crafty though loving kings, an innocent half-fae noble, a legendary outlaw turned conqueror, worried warriors, clever guards, and an infamous beauty. PUBLISHER: Independently Published LENGTH: ~1000 pages so far AGE: Adult GENRE: Fantasy, Romance RECOMMENDED: Highly Queer Rep Summary: m/m and m/m/m fantasy romance TITLES DISCUSSED A SUITABLE CONSORT (2021) A SUITABLE BODYGUARD (2023) A SUITABLE CAPTIVE (2023) A SUITABLE STRAY (2025)  OTHER TITLES  BLESSED (2024) - Omegaverse AU  A SUITABLE BRAT (2025) Before I get into my review of the series so far, I have two brief announcements! First, I'm excited to announce that I've joined the Creator Accountability Network. CAN is a nonprofit dedicated to reducing harassment and abuse through ethical education and a system of restorative accountability. I joined because I care about the safety and well being of my community members. If you feel my behavior or content has harmed someone, please report it to CAN, either via the reporting form on their website, CreatorAccountabilityNetwork.org, or via their hotline at (617-249-4255). They'll help me make it right, and avoid repeating that mistake in the future. CAN also needs volunteers from our communities to help with their work, so if you have skills you think would be helpful, or time and a desire to help, please visit their website to find out how you can volunteer. Most importantly, get the word out to other creators who you think would be interested in getting credentialed. Help us build safer communities together. Second, the Suitable 'Verse has a new entry! I wrote and recorded this before the November 5th release date (and Patrons get this review early), but by the time this is posted for everyone else, the new novella, "A Suitable Brat" will be available. I reached out to R. Cooper and confirmed that this won't be the end of the series. In my series reviews I've left open the possibility of reviewing a portion of a series that is ongoing, as long as there are at least three books available at the time. In this case, there are four, so I'm proceeding with my post in its original scope. If this series sounds like your thing, there's already more for you to read.   Minimal Spoiler Zone Series Premise Each of these stories follows an achillean romance from the point of view of someone who was not expecting to be desired by anyone, let alone by the person or persons who endeavor to show them just how much they are cherished. Each is told from one person's perspective, generally whomever is the most neurodivergent-coded in the potential relationship, this character will also be either closely or distantly descended from the fae, who have taken an interest in the kingdom where the books are set. This allows for a slow burn feeling without padding the page count to achieve it. I'm fond of books which show someone figuring out not just what they want but how to go about it, especially in the context of a relationship. R. Cooper treats these relationships as ongoing conversations, where words, actions, and body language combine as communication. Different characters need different things, and even among the variously oblivious protagonists there are degrees of understanding, knowledge, and context which they are quicker or slower to realize.    This series is very queer, set in what appears to be a queernorm world where polyamory is accepted and implied to be relatively common. Thus far, sexuality or orientation have not been remarked upon as anything significant, and this trend seems likely to continue. These books feature some politically tense and sometimes violent situations, but do not wield most real-world bigotries as bludgeons. I say "most" because the most prevalent bigotry I spotted was classism, followed by whatever the right term for bigotry against the fae, given the way they are inhuman and neurodivergent-coded. Recommended Reading Order There will be some distant day when this series is complete and it's possible to read the stories from start to finish in chronological order. Today is not that day, and until that point I advise reading them in publication order, especially since that is not the chronological order. I give this advice for anyone who enjoys figuring out timelines, what's going on, and where things relate to other things. Each book's position in the grander saga of political upheaval and new governance helps inform the others in the series, overlapping enough that some pieces could be missing without losing too much of that arc. The loose fit of the stories in relation to one another means that if any of them contain particularly triggering content for an individual reader, that book could be skipped without losing too much of the overall story. The individual stories are self-contained and could be read in any order, but elements of the worldbuilding are explained in varying detail depending on the needs of the individual story. I enjoyed the revelatory feeling of figuring out where the second and third books fit in relation to the first, though I do not consider that information to be a spoiler for any of the stories involved. Instead, they allow for a sense of context and history in this fictional world, and for excitement as the pieces come together for the reader. Here There Be Spoilers Main Characters   Each book has a different set of main characters, and is set in a different point in time. Some characters appear in multiple books, depending on how close they are in time to one another. Even though the different point of view characters have a great deal in common in terms of their autism-coded neurodivergence and general obliviousness to social cues, they're different enough in other respects that it does not feel like they're one character. Mattin is very aware of social forms, rules, and political implications of various actions, he just doesn't seem to think of them as having any positive effects for him, personally. He's likely to get lost in research or chasing some history through the archives. Tiiran is very focused on the rules and the way things ought to be, thinking through what it means when those norms are broken, and what bad actors with corrupt motives might do to preserve current inequalities. He tends to be very pessimistic, thinking of himself as discarded by the Fae and unimportant. Fen doesn't have much of a sense of self-preservation. He'll take risks to achieve a better outcome than the one that would happen if he did nothing. I'm not sure if he's optimistic or just pragmatic, at least in the beginning. By the end, Fen is helping Lan make strategic moves that show he's thinking further ahead than even what Lan had dreamt. Zelli has such a low sense of self preservation that he let himself actually die and needed to be brought back by the fae.  Character Twists In A SUITABLE CONSORT (For the King and His Husband), Mattin is a librarian and advisor to the king, Arden. When one of the nobles suggests the king marry again (said while his husband, Mil, is in the room at Arden's side), the king takes the suggestion seriously and asks Mattin to help him choose someone. Mattin adores the royal couple and the story of their romance, so he compiles a list of potential spouses who would meet the political goals of such a union without being slighted by being a lower priority as the new member of an existing marriage. Despite meeting all the criteria he outlined to Arden and Mil as being relevant for compiling the list, Mattin doesn't for a moment consider putting himself in as a candidate. It turns out that Arden and Mil have already been interested in Mattin, but were worried his apparent lack of interest was because they were too old for him. Arden asks Mattin for advice on courting and then he and Mil proceed to follow all Mattin's advice... on Mattin, who still doesn't realize what they are doing. A crisis at the palace forces the issue when Mattin is in danger and Mil and Arden rescue him, bringing him to their bedroom and providing a space for a conversation which finally clears up the various confusions about each person's actions and intentions. Mattin didn't put himself on the list because he didn't think of himself as someone two people as great as the king and his husband could want. He was very wrong, and they take great delight in showing him how much he is cherished.   Later Series Developments I've become used to the linearity of series in a way that is, I suspect, common for anyone who reads as many books as I do. The Suitable 'Verse, as published, is not a linear story, and I think it's stronger for it. The larger context builds slowly, requiring minimal description in subsequent books to place them in relation to A Suitable Consort. This may be a chance meeting between characters, an epilogue, or the shape of the current situation in a more general sense.    In A SUITABLE STRAY, Tiiran spent a long while completely oblivious to the fact that not only are both Orin and Nikola interested in him, but that he desire both of them and wants to be desired in return. Because most of this book is not spent with anyone in active danger, at least as far as Tiiran knows, the pacing is more languid, with more room to linger in each phase. In contrast to A SUITABLE CONSORT, where two-thirds of the book was spent with Mattin completely oblivious to how he was being courted, A SUITABLE STRAY has more time spent with Tiiran actively in a sexual relationship. This is while, somehow, taking even longer to realize that the way Tiiran has become entangled with Orin and Nikola means that he is not just pleasantly passing time with them, but in love with them and wants the three of them to be together. In A SUITABLE CAPTIVE, Fen offers himself almost immediately to the so-called "Wild Dog", seeming to accept the idea that Lan (as he prefers to be known) might use his body in the course of that captivity. Fen is hoping for no more than that it would be a better version of the fate he had avoided by running away and accidentally getting captured in the first place. To me, it seemed fairly obvious that Lan was interested in Fen, but, without quite using this language, he was mindful of the power dynamic between them. Lan is as powerfully averse to taking advantage of Fen as he is attracted to him. Gradually, they negotiate the space between them, growing to understand each other better. Over time, that new understanding eases their communication, which in turn allows for their physical situation to become more intimate in a way that is meaningful to both of them. They built a personal ritual that is unique to them, and part took in a along established ritual from Fen's mother's people.    Themes Series themes include difference and belonging, found or chosen family, and obligations of care. There's a focus on communication, and the importance of paying attention to both speech and silence, of noticing when someone isn't all right.  Fae heritage is used metaphorically for a blend of real-world characteristics for which people are often marginalized, but as a fantasy analogue it carries very little of the baggage which would accompany its realistic counterparts. As with any marginalization, the fae-touched protagonists have different reactions to their various levels of fae heritage. This heritage manifests unevenly, giving them smaller-than-human-average stature, but also some... flashier differences, such as hair which moves of its own whim and eyes which rapidly change color. Their fae-touched natures were a very minor detail for Mattin in A SUITABLE CONSORT, but a very important part of A SUITABLE CAPTIVE and A SUITABLE STRAY. Tiiran hates the fae, loudly saying "Fuck the Fae" if anyone mentions them positively. He views them as child-abandoners, passive observers of the world's injustices when they have the power and responsibility to do much more than just intervene in politics and sire random children.  Twists and Turns Normally, when looking at individual books in a series, I note whether they leave something for later books to pick up. This is an odd case where the first book left space for stories set before and after it. It builds the impression that this is a place with a history, and bits of that history are being fleshed out a little at a time through these romances. The most shocking moment for me was getting to the epilogue of A SUITABLE CAPTIVE and realizing when it was set in relation to A SUITABLE CONSORT. Having looked at R. Cooper's website, I don't think that is a spoiler, precisely, but it is the kind of detail I enjoyed realizing in the moment.  Current Status The series is ongoing, with a novella releasing this very month. I don't know how many books are planned, and I don't think it matters, not to me as a reader. These books are a delight, and I will read as many of them as R. Cooper writes. The open structure distributes the narrative weight until there's a lot of room for more stories to fill the vacant space. A palace has a great many people in it, with the whole country being larger still, which would allow for many books taking place even before the timeline is considered. The earliest book so far takes place several hundred years before the events of A SUITABLE CONSORT, and there have been several mentions of when the old queen was deposed. That might not be an ideal setting for a romance, but this series is no stranger to love amidst tragedy.  If you like this you may like: One Night in Hartswood by Emma Denny The Thief by Megan Whalen Turner  Major Series CWs: sexual content, violence, war, death.

Recently, I looked at the one pair of winter boots I own, and I thought “I will probably never buy winter boots again.” The world as we know it probably won't last more than a decade, and I live in a pretty warm area. I. AGI is likely in the next decade It has basically become consensus within the AI research community that AI will surpass human capabilities sometime in the next few decades. Some, including myself, think this will likely happen this decade. II. The post-AGI world will be unrecognizable Assuming AGI doesn't cause human extinction, it is hard to even imagine what the world will look like. Some have tried, but many of their attempts make assumptions that limit the amount of change that will happen, just to make it easier to imagine such a world. Dario Amodei recently imagined a post-AGI world in Machines of Loving Grace. He imagines rapid progress in medicine, the curing of mental illness, the end of poverty, world peace, and a vastly transformed economy where humans probably no longer provide economic value. However, in imagining this crazy future, he limits his writing to be “tame” enough to be digested by a [...] ---Outline:(00:22) I. AGI is likely in the next decade(00:40) II.

Bio je previše glasan, previše samouveren, previše svestan da istorija pamti samo one koji tresnu šakom o sto. Generali su ga mrzeli, novinari obožavali, a narod... narod ga je slušao jer niko nije znao da govori kao on.Nikola Đukić i Nikola Šipka otvaraju jedno od najzanimljivijih poglavlja XX veka: život, uspon i pad čoveka koji je u isto vreme bio i spasilac Evrope i simbol britanskog imperijalnog ponosa. Čerčil, večiti buntovnik sa cigarom i čašom viskija, pesnik u uniformi, političar koji je znao da gubi sa stilom i pobeđuje uz osvetu.Od rovova Burskog rata do bunkera pod Londonom, od govora koji su dizali moral naciji do odluka koje su koštale hiljade života - epizoda istražuje njegovu senku i sjaj, sva lica čoveka koji je uvek balansirao na granici između heroja i autokrate, između vizije i sujete.Danas pričamo o upornosti, sujeti i neverovatnom instinktu za istorijski trenutak. Ali i o senkama koje prate svaki mit; od kolonijalne politike i rasnih stavova do kontroverznih odluka u ratu, teškoj i komplikovanoj ličnosti koja ne pristaje da se uklapa ni po koju cenu.

Fluent Fiction - Serbian: Reunion at Kalemegdan: A Historian's Quest for Truth Find the full episode transcript, vocabulary words, and more:fluentfiction.com/sr/episode/2025-11-06-08-38-20-sr Story Transcript:Sr: На хладни, ветровити дан, када Калемегданска тврђава окупана у златним јесењим бојама стоји на узвисини изнад ушћа Саве у Дунав, Милан је стајао замишљено.En: On a cold, windy day, as the Kalemegdan fortress bathed in golden autumn hues stood on the heights above the confluence of the Sava and Dunav, Milan stood lost in thought.Sr: Ветра је носила суво лишће и у ваздуху је мирисала јесен, док је Милан размишљао о прошлости која га је вратила у родни град баш на Дан Светог Арханђела Михаила.En: The wind carried the dry leaves, and the air smelled of autumn, while Milan pondered the past that brought him back to his hometown on the Day of Saint Archangel Michael.Sr: Милан је био историчар, тих и повучен мушкарац који је трагао за истином о прошлом животу у овом граду.En: Milan was a historian, a quiet and reserved man who searched for the truth about the past life in this city.Sr: Данас је био посебан дан.En: Today was a special day.Sr: Јелена, његова пријатељица из детињства, и њен брат, Никола, требало је да се састану с њим.En: Jelena, his childhood friend, and her brother, Nikola, were supposed to meet him.Sr: Неколико година су били у различитим световима.En: For several years, they had lived in different worlds.Sr: Јелена је била успешна архитекта са скривеним осећањима која је никад није изразила, а Никола, увек шармантан, носио је тајну коју је управо сада био спреман да подели.En: Jelena was a successful architect with hidden feelings she never expressed, and Nikola, always charming, carried a secret he was now ready to share.Sr: Њихов поглед се срео преко старих зидина тврђаве, где су јасно видели сурову лепоту снажних река које се спајају у даљини.En: Their eyes met across the old fortress walls, where they clearly saw the harsh beauty of the powerful rivers merging in the distance.Sr: "Заиста сам срећан што вас видим," рекао је Милан, али његов поглед је откривао дубоку тугу и неизвесност.En: "I'm truly happy to see you," said Milan, but his gaze revealed deep sadness and uncertainty.Sr: "И ми тебе," одговорила је Јелена, држећи стегнуте руке.En: "And we are to see you," replied Jelena, holding her hands tightly.Sr: У срцу је осећала много више од онога што је њена реч могла изразити.En: In her heart, she felt much more than her words could express.Sr: Док су шетали уз зидине тврђаве, Милан је ненадано стао.En: As they walked along the fortress walls, Milan suddenly stopped.Sr: Дуго је желео да пита за разлог свог изненадног одласка пре неколико година.En: He had long wanted to ask about the reason for his sudden departure a few years ago.Sr: Тај терет је носио превише дуго.En: He had carried that burden for too long.Sr: "Јелена... зашто сам морао отићи?" питао је тихо, дивећи се храбрости коју је у себи нашао.En: "Jelena... why did I have to leave?" he asked quietly, admiring the courage he found within himself.Sr: Њен поглед се спустио, а њено срце се борило између истине и бола.En: Her gaze lowered, and her heart battled between truth and pain.Sr: "Не знам целу причу, али мислим да је Никола знао више од мене," изговорила је коначно, погледавши брата.En: "I don't know the whole story, but I think Nikola knew more than I did," she finally spoke, looking at her brother.Sr: Никола је устао, стиснуте песнице истином коју је држао осам година.En: Nikola stood up, fists clenched with the truth he had kept for eight years.Sr: "Наш отац је желео да те заштити од нечег.En: "Our father wanted to protect you from something.Sr: Мислио је да је тако најбоље за тебе."En: He thought it was best for you."Sr: Милан је уздахнуо.En: Milan sighed.Sr: Истина је била болна, али ослобађајућа.En: The truth was painful, yet liberating.Sr: Јелена је пришла и ухватила га за руку.En: Jelena approached and took his hand.Sr: "Хајде да будемо сада овде, у овом тренутку," рекла је.En: "Let's be here now, in this moment," she said.Sr: Док се хладни ветар спуштао низ зидине и листови су лепршали до њихових стопала, Милан је осетио да је коначно слободан од прошлости.En: As the cold wind descended the walls and leaves fluttered to their feet, Milan felt finally free from the past.Sr: Могли су започети нови почетак, заједно са другарством и новим шансама које им је живот нудио.En: They could start anew, together with camaraderie and new opportunities life offered them.Sr: Тврђава је, као неми сведок њихове приче, стајала чврсто, спремна да чува њихове тајне.En: The fortress, as a silent witness to their story, stood firm, ready to keep their secrets.Sr: Милан је тихо проговорио, "Хвала вам," и прихватио шансу за нови живот.En: Milan spoke softly, "Thank you," and embraced the chance for a new life.Sr: Било је време да оде у сусрет будућности са миром и љубављу.En: It was time to meet the future with peace and love.Sr: Тада, у том магичном тренутку, дружина је направила први корак ка новом дану, испуњеном надом.En: Then, in that magical moment, the group took the first step toward a new day, filled with hope.

Zpěv je vyjádřením sebe sama i emocí v písni. Zpěv je energie. Síla. Propojení. Zrcadlo vnitřního já. Zábava. A bez ohledu na to, co říkaly vaše postarší učitelky během hodin hudební výchovy, zpívat se může naučit každý. Ať už jste muzikanti, co se chtějí zlepšit, anebo sprchoví zpěváci, všechno jde. Jde jen o to rozhodnout se… a vytrvat. Poslední epizoda Podcastu Frontwoman se věnuje právě zpěvu a všem jeho stránkám, které jsme probraly s Beego – zpěvačkou, vokální koučkou, a také zakladatelkou a majitelkou školy Singing Is Fun.

Podržite nas i na Patreonu ➡️ https://www.patreon.com/c/HistoryCast Period između 1717. i 1739. godine u istoriji Srbije mnogi preskaču, a on je zapravo fascinantan, pun preokreta, neizvesnosti i velikih očekivanja. To je vreme kada se Srbija, nakon Velike seobe, našla između dva sveta: između Beča i Carigrada, između imperija koje su odlučivale o njenoj sudbini. Dok su jedni videli budućnost u habzburškom redu i zapadnom poretku, drugi su još uvek gledali ka starom, poznatom Istoku. Istoričar Nikola Đukić i istoričar umetnosti dr Nikola Piperski razgovaraju o Srbiji pod Habzburškom monarhijom, o provinciji - kraljevini, o pokušajima da se izgradi nova uprava i o tome kako je sve to izgledalo iz perspektive naroda koji je živeo između carskih odluka i svakodnevne borbe za opstanak; o narodu koji je, između tuđih granica, pokušavao da pronađe sopstveni identitet. Srbija je bila strateški prostor, koridor između Beča i Carigrada, i svaka vojska koja bi prešla Dunav smatrala je da ima pravo da je preuredi po svom modelu.

Už v novembri sa po šiestich rokoch obnoví pravidelná letecká linka Bratislava - Košice. Deje sa to zároveň s tým, ako naše najväčšie letisko ožíva a profituje z novej politiky rakúskeho Schwechatu.Maďarský Wizz Air v ňom ruší základňu a časť biznisu presúva do Bratislavy. Tu sa však musí pasovať s najväčšími európskymi aerolinkami Ryanair, ktoré mu v konkurenčnom boji zatiaľ naozaj nič nechcú darovať.Vydrží Wizz Air tento tlak? Udrží pri živote spojenie hlavného mesta a metropoly východu, na ktoré získal od Slovenska licenciu a dotáciu?

Leto 1944. nije donelo samo Normandiju. Na Istočnom frontu odigravala se ofanziva kakvu svet do tada nije video. Front se raspadao, gradovi su padali. U Belorusiji je pukla kičma Vermahta. Pod velom maskirovke, sovjetske armije udaraju istovremeno na Vitebsk, Oršu, Mogiljev i Bobrujsk; kolone se rasipaju, komandne veze nestaju, a grupa armija Centar prestaje da postoji brže nego što je ikada sanjala nemačka komanda. U samo nekoliko nedelja pada Minsk, front se pomera stotinama kilometara, a „nepobediva” mašina Trećeg rajha pretvara se u improvizovani haos i povlačenje bez plana. Kumovi Nikola Đukić i Nikola Šipka vode nas kroz anatomiju ove ofanzive: kako je sovjetska obmana zaslepela nemačku obaveštajnu službu; zašto su naređenja „držati liniju” i "nema povlačenja" bila presuda, a ne strategija; šta su uradili Rokosovski, Žukov i komandanti frontova da preseku nemačku odbranu po dubini; zašto je oslobađanje Minska označilo tačku bez povratka za Rajh. I kako je operacija Bagration postala najveći nemački poraz u Drugom svetskom ratu i stvarni početak kraja?

Podporte Dobré ráno na HeroHero: ⁠https://herohero.co/dobrerano/subscribe⁠Poplatky u lekárov sa stali bežnou súčasťou praxe a zdravotnú starostlivosť pre mnohých znemožňujú. Ročne nás to v priemere každého jedného a jednu stojí desiatky eur. Individuálne príbehy dokážu hovoriť o stovkách eur, ktoré nechávame v ambulanciách a iných zdravotníckych zariadeniach.Posvietil si na ne úrad pre dohľad nad zdravotnou starostlivosťou, ombudsman, najvyšší kontrolný úrad či niekoľko auditov a prieskumov vykonaných viacerými ministrami zdravotníctva. Napriek tomu tu stále sú a keď príde opatrenie, nájdu pre ne okľuku.To, či sa dá fungovať bez nich, ako ich obhajujú lekári a čo to máme v zdravotníctve za situáciu, keď popri odvodoch znášame poplatky, a súkromná poisťovňa si vypláca miliónové dividendy, sa Nikola Šuliková Bajánová pýta Jána Krempaského, redaktora domácej redakcie denníka SME.Zdroje zvukov: STVR, TA3OdporúčanieUž to tak býva, že streamovacia služba Applu produkuje naozaj kvalitné seriály, no nevie si ich odpromovať.

Podržite nas na Patreonu https://www.patreon.com/c/HistoryCast Ovu epizodu omogućili su vam naši sponzori na Patreonu. U ovoj epizodi istražujemo jedan od najdramatičnijih događaja u nacističkoj Nemačkoj - Noć dugih noževa. Ova krvava čistka, koja se dogodila između 29. juna i 2. jula 1934. godine, zauvek je promenila tok Hitlerove vlasti i obeležila početak brutalne nacističke tiranije. Kako su ambicije, strahovi i politički manevri doveli do toga da Hitler eliminiše svoje najbliže saradnike? Ko je bio Ernst Rem i zašto je SA, nekadašnji stub nacističkog pokreta, morala biti uništena? Kroz priču o krvavom obračunu unutar nacističkog režima, istražujemo kako je Adolf Hitler iskoristio političku paranoju, unutrašnje sukobe i brutalne metode da učvrsti svoju moć. Šta je zapravo pokrenulo ovu čistku? Ko su bile žrtve, a ko profiteri ovog događaja? I, najvažnije, kako je ova noć oblikovala sudbinu Nemačke, ali i sveta u godinama koje su usledile? U ovoj epizodi naši istoričari Ivan Drljača i Nikola Đukić pružiće vam detaljan uvid u spletke, izdaje i paranoju iza kulisa nacističke vlasti. Tu su i priče o ključnim figurama poput Ernsta Rema, Jozefa Gebelsa, Hermana Geringa i Hajnriha Himlera, kao i analiza uticaja ovog događaja na nacistički režim i međunarodnu politiku.

Jovana asked, holding his hand.Sr: "Морам... да наставим," замумлао је брзо отворивши очи.En: "I have to... keep going," he mumbled, quickly opening his eyes.Sr: "Не, не мораш," одговорила је она са осмехом.En: "No, you don't have to," she replied with a smile.Sr: "Мораш се бринути о себи."En: "You have to take care of yourself."Sr: Касније, док је Милан седео на клупи са чашом воде у руци, Никола га је погледао дубоко у очи.En: Later, as Milan sat on the bench with a glass of water in his hand, Nikola looked him deeply in the eyes.Sr: "Твоја упорност је велика, али моја брига за твоје здравље је већа."En: "Your determination is great, but my concern for your health is greater."Sr: Милан је уздахнуо и насмешио се.En: Milan sighed and smiled.Sr: "Хвала вам обоје. Мислим да сам учио важну лекцију данас.En: "Thank you both. I think I've learned an important lesson today.Sr: Морам боље да приоритетирам своје време и не заборавим на своје здравље."En: I need to better prioritize my time and not forget about my health."Sr: Јована га је загрлила, док је тмурно небо изнад њих наговештавало почетак нових дана.En: Jovana hugged him as the gloomy sky above hinted at the beginning of new days.Sr: Касније, док су сви одлазили кући спремајући се за другарску Хеловин забаву, Милан је осетио мир.En: Later, as everyone went home preparing for a friendly Halloween party, Milan felt at peace.Sr: Знао је да је на правом путу, а са пријатељима попут Јоване и Николе, био је сигуран да ће успети.En: He knew he was on the right path, and with friends like Jovana and Nikola, he was sure he would succeed.

Смири се, све ће бити у реду,“ каза Јасна, трудећи се умирити га.En: "Nikola, I can help you. Calm down, everything will be okay," Jasna said, trying to soothe him.Sr: Његове очи су биле препуне страха и стида.En: His eyes were filled with fear and embarrassment.Sr: Док су секунде пролазиле као минути, ситуација је постајала све озбиљнија.En: As the seconds passed like minutes, the situation became more serious.Sr: Јасна је морала пружити хитну помоћ.En: Jasna had to provide urgent assistance.Sr: Сетила се симулираног часа прве помоћи.En: She remembered the simulated first aid class.Sr: Једина опција је била да искористи епинефрин.En: The only option was to use epinephrine.Sr: Осетила је како јој срце јаче куца, али није имала времена за страхове.En: She felt her heart beating harder, but she had no time for fears.Sr: Са дрхтавим рукама, али одлучна, узела је уређај за ињекцију и припремила се.En: With trembling hands, but determined, she took the injection device and prepared herself.Sr: Глас учитеља одлепришао је изнад комешања.En: The teacher's voice fluttered above the commotion.Sr: Последњим дубоким удахом, Јасна је притиснула шприц у његово бутно мишићно ткиво, истовремено модлићи да је исправно применила.En: With one last deep breath, Jasna pressed the syringe into his thigh muscle, simultaneously praying she applied it correctly.Sr: Неколико напетих тренутака касније, Никола је почео лакше дисати.En: A few tense moments later, Nikola began to breathe easier.Sr: Када је школска сестра дошла, нашла је Јасну како смирено држи ситуацију под контролом.En: When the school nurse arrived, she found Jasna calmly keeping the situation under control.Sr: Учитељи и ученици гледали су у њу са новим поштовањем.En: Teachers and students looked at her with newfound respect.Sr: „Урадила си невероватан посао, Јасна,“ похвалила ју је сестра.En: "You did an incredible job, Jasna," praised the nurse.Sr: Никола је, иако првобитно изгубљен и стидљив, погледао Јасну са усахлим осмехом.En: Nikola, although initially lost and shy, looked at Jasna with a faint smile.Sr: „Хвала ти, спасио си ми живот.“En: "Thank you, you saved my life."Sr: Јасна је осетила како је испуњена новим самопоуздањем.En: Jasna felt filled with newfound confidence.Sr: То је био тренутак када је знала да њено животно звање лежи у медицини.En: It was a moment when she knew her life's calling lay in medicine.Sr: Никола је, с друге стране, спознао да прихватање помоћи није знак слабости, већ мудрости.En: Nikola, on the other hand, realized that accepting help was not a sign of weakness, but wisdom.Sr: Док су ходници поново оживљавали, њих двоје знали су да се нешто променило.En: As the hallways came alive again, the two of them knew something had changed.Sr: У тој једној учионици, у тој једној јесени, отпочело је ново пријатељство.En: In that one classroom, in that one autumn, a new friendship began.Sr: За Јасну, то је био корак ближе сновима; за Николу, нови почетак.En: For Jasna, it was a step closer to her dreams; for Nikola, a new beginning.

This Day in Legal History: Abrams v. United States ArguedOn October 21, 1919, the U.S. Supreme Court heard arguments in Abrams v. United States, a seminal case in the development of First Amendment jurisprudence. The case arose during the post–World War I Red Scare, when the government aggressively prosecuted speech perceived as dangerous or subversive. The defendants were Russian immigrants who distributed leaflets in New York City denouncing U.S. military intervention in the Russian Revolution and calling for a general strike. They were charged and convicted under the Sedition Act of 1918 for allegedly inciting resistance to the war effort.The Supreme Court upheld their convictions in a 7–2 decision, finding that the speech posed a “clear and present danger” to national security. However, it was Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes' dissent, joined by Justice Louis Brandeis, that left the most lasting impression. Holmes argued that only speech intended to produce imminent lawless action should be punished, introducing the enduring metaphor of the “marketplace of ideas” as essential to democratic deliberation.Legally, the case illustrates the government's ability to impose post-speech punishment—penalties after speech has occurred—as opposed to prior restraint, which involves preventing speech before it happens. The distinction is vital in American law: prior restraints are almost always unconstitutional, while post-speech sanctions may be permitted under narrow circumstances. In Abrams, the Court leaned toward deference to governmental wartime authority, but Holmes' dissent marked the beginning of a shift toward greater speech protections.The decision laid the groundwork for the more speech-protective standards adopted in later cases such as Brandenburg v. Ohio (1969). The post-speech punishment principle debated in Abrams remains a cornerstone of First Amendment law, highlighting the tension between state interests and individual liberties in times of political conflict.When two alleged drug traffickers survived a U.S. military strike in the Caribbean, the Trump administration immediately repatriated them rather than detain them — a decision that reveals a troubling logic behind the president's new “war” on narco‑terrorism. The administration has declared the campaign a “non‑international armed conflict,” but legal experts note that this classification offers no real authority for military detention. In other words, the United States can kill suspects under this self‑declared war framework, but it has no clear legal footing to hold survivors.Experts said the administration likely chose the least damaging option: send the survivors home and avoid a courtroom. Detaining them at Guantanamo or on U.S. soil would have triggered habeas corpus challenges, forced disclosure of evidence, and risked exposing the strikes as legally indefensible. One former State Department lawyer said any trial would have “undermined the narrative” that the attacks were lawful military operations. By refusing to hold prisoners, the administration sidesteps both judicial scrutiny and transparency.The result is a perverse incentive structure. If survivors are released but detainees are liabilities, the easiest path for officials is to ensure there are no survivors at all. The legal asymmetry—where killing is simpler than capture—encourages tactics that maximize lethality while minimizing accountability. As a result, Trump's “drug war” risks becoming less about law enforcement and more about ensuring that no one lives long enough to challenge the legality of U.S. actions.In Trump's drug war, prisoners may be too much of a legal headache, experts say | ReutersGlobal pharmaceutical companies are rapidly ramping up U.S. manufacturing in response to a looming Trump administration policy that would impose 100% tariffs on imported branded and patented drugs. While enforcement is delayed for companies that commit to domestic investment, the threat has already triggered a wave of fast-tracked spending, direct-to-consumer sales shifts, and pricing concessions in exchange for temporary tariff exemptions.Major players like Pfizer, AstraZeneca, Merck, Johnson & Johnson, Eli Lilly, and Roche have pledged tens of billions of dollars to build or expand plants across the U.S. to shield themselves from future penalties. Some, like Pfizer and AstraZeneca, secured multi-year tariff exemptions by agreeing to pricing deals and participation in the administration's new TrumpRx.gov program. Others, like Novartis and Sanofi, are spreading investments across multiple states and sites, creating thousands of jobs as part of their strategic insulation.The tariff threat is driving a major reshaping of global supply chains and investment strategies, as companies aim to avoid the legal and financial burden of import duties by domesticating both manufacturing and distribution. While some firms say they are already well-positioned with sufficient U.S. inventory, the broader trend reflects a defensive industry-wide shift to preemptively comply with the administration's protectionist push.Global drugmakers rush to boost US presence as tariff threat looms | ReutersTrevor Milton, the disgraced founder of electric-truck startup Nikola, is somehow back as a CEO—this time leading SyberJet Aircraft, a private jet manufacturer, according to reporting by Techdirt. Milton was convicted of fraud for deceiving investors about Nikola's technology, most famously releasing a misleading video of a prototype truck that was actually rolling downhill, not self-propelled. He was sentenced to four years in prison but never served a day, thanks to a pardon from Donald Trump earlier this year—reportedly after donating millions to Trump-aligned causes and hiring the brother of current Attorney General Pam Bondi as his attorney.Now, just months after that pardon, Milton has been tapped to lead development of a new high-speed jet for SyberJet, with promised performance metrics that already sound suspiciously ambitious. The company, privately backed, won't need to answer to public shareholders—but it will still need investor trust to raise money for a jet not slated for delivery until 2032. TechDirt points out how the company's promotional material leans into rewriting Milton's history, calling him “renowned” rather than acknowledging the full scope of his fraudulent past.The piece underscores a broader theme of “failing upward,” highlighting how white-collar offenders, especially white men with political connections, often land on their feet despite serious criminal convictions–and has some interesting implications for the future career of George Santos. Milton's quick rebound from federal fraud conviction to C-suite leadership is less an exception than a reminder of how accountability gaps persist in American corporate culture.Convicted Fraudster Trevor Milton Rides His Trump Pardon To Another CEO Job, Somehow | TechdirtIn my column for Bloomberg this week, I dive in to the governor's race in my home state. The 2025 New Jersey gubernatorial race has become a tax-policy showdown between Jack Ciattarelli and Mikie Sherrill—both of whom are framing affordability as their central mission, but doing so with deeply flawed approaches. Ciattarelli is offering aggressive tax cuts and structural overhauls that are, frankly, reckless in a state with a delicate and complicated fiscal ecosystem. His plan to flatten income tax brackets and slash corporate rates isn't just optimistic—it's ahistorical. We've seen this movie before in Kansas, where sweeping tax cuts led to revenue collapse, credit downgrades, and bipartisan regret. Ciattarelli is essentially proposing a rerun, but with no clearer escape plan if it fails.Sherrill, by contrast, is pragmatic to the point of inertia. Her emphasis on municipal service sharing and administrative tweaks is fine as far as it goes—but it doesn't go very far. Her promise to freeze utility rates via emergency powers, for instance, isn't just legally questionable, it also misdiagnoses the issue: state governments don't control wholesale energy prices. It's a symbolic gesture dressed up as policy.Neither candidate seems willing to address the structural drivers of New Jersey's notoriously high property taxes, preferring instead to nibble around the edges or promise caps that could backfire. That's a missed opportunity. As I argue in the column, New Jersey doesn't need sweeping cuts or more bureaucratic tinkering—it needs targeted relief for the people who actually feel the pinch. Expanding the state Earned Income Tax Credit and implementing a robust child tax credit would offer immediate, evidence-backed help to those struggling most with affordability. These aren't radical ideas; they're already working in other states.Ciattarelli's plan is built on trickle-down economics and wishful math. Sherrill's is built on competent management, but lacks ambition. The voters deserve more than either of those options.Tax Platforms in NJ Governor's Race Leave Out the Best Ideas This is a public episode.

Po dvoch rokoch, ktoré stáli životy desaťtisíce ľudí a ktoré doslova rozdelili celý svet, nastalo prímerie.Vzorec je pomerne jednoduchý. Mladý muž či chlapec, ktorý sa cíti osamelo, nedostatočne či neatraktívne, sa zahĺbi do sociálnych sietí. Tie mu ponúknu jedno dve videá s obsahom, ktorý by sme mohli nazvať maskulínny, antifeministický, ľahko mizogýnny a ak ich pozerá dosť dlho, ponúkne mu ďalšie a ďalšie a radikálnejšie.Postupne sa dostáva pod vplyv takzvanej manosféry a nachádza podobných mladých mužov, ktorí si hovoria inceli. A zrazu nie je taký sám, zrazu sú takých ako on tisíce. O ženách si začne myslieť svoje, dlhujú mu všetko a nie sú ani ľuďmi.Online prejavy tejto nenávisti sa pretavujú aj do reálneho života, napríklad zhoršeným psychickým zdravím mužov, ale aj násilnými útokmi. Denník SME incelov pozoroval a komunikoval s nimi na najväčšom uzavretom fóre, kde sa združujú.O tom, čo sa tam dialo, ako títo muži premýšľajú a čo sa s tým dá robiť, sa Nikola Šuliková Bajánová rozpráva so stážistkou denníka SME Líviou Lukácsovou.OdporúčanieVeľa z toho, o čom sme sa dnes rozprávali, má koreň v nezahojených traumách, často spôsobených výchovou. Preto, či už máte alebo nemáte deti, odporúčam prečítať si knihu Toto mali čítať naši rodičia od Philippy Perryovej. Je to bestseller o tom, ako si vytvoriť s deťmi kvalitný a bezpečný vzťah, a takisto pomáha pozrieť sa na vlastné detstvo očami psychoterapeutky.–Všetky podcasty denníka SME nájdete na⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ sme.sk/podcasty⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠–Odoberajte aj audio verziu denného newslettra⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ SME.sk⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ s najdôležitejšími správami na⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ sme.sk/brifing⁠⁠⁠

Vyhlásil, že po tritisíc rokoch už bude mier a takisto že nastáva zlatý vek Blízkeho východu a Izraela.Čo sa na samite v Šarm aš-Šajchu podarilo dosiahnuť? Čo bude nasledovať?

Väčšina Slovákov a Sloveniek má ľavicovú politickú orientáciu, neznamená to však, že sú za otvorené hranice voči migrantom alebo že by schvaľovali manželstvá párov rovnakého pohlavia.Veľkej časti sa nepáči ani miera európskej integrácie. Hodnotovo je naša spoločnosť ukotvená najmä konzervatívne a chce, aby štát do ekonomiky zasahoval výrazne.Vyplýva to z prieskumu a následnej analýzy agentúry NMS Market Research, ktoré mapujú ideologické a programové pozície politických strán v Európe. Ako na túto orientáciu ľudí na Slovensku reagujú strany?

Ovo je priča o Astečkom carstvu - o njegovom usponu i o njegovom tragičnom kraju. O Astecima i njihovoj imperiji danas razgovaraju istoričari i kumovi Nikola Đukić i Nikola Šipka. Oni nas vode od mitskog puta plemena Meksika do osnivanja Tenočtitlana, grada podignutog usred jezera Teskoko, čuda urbanizma i središta jedne od najsnažnijih država prekolumbovske Amerike. Sam Tenočtitlan imao je preko 200.000 stanovnika, više nego većina tadašnjih evropskih prestonica. Njegovi stanovnici obrađivali su plutajuće bašte - činampas, genijalna veštačka ostrva koja su obezbeđivala obilne useve i činila grad gotovo samoodrživim.

Nina and Alexandra kick off this episode with a summary ofthe week's news, from the violations of NATO airspace in Estonia and Denmark to US President Donald Trump's possible 180 on Ukraine. They also discuss Russia's revival of the Intervision Song Contest as its latest cultural diplomacyeffort, as well as the extradition of Moldovan oligarch Vladimir Plahotniuc from Greece after several years of evading the law. Nina then speaks with Serbian political scientist Nikola Burazer of the Center for Contemporary Politics and European Western Balkans. Nikola updates listeners on the ongoing student demonstrations in Serbia, the government's increasingly harsh response, and where he thinks the situation could be headed. While protesters' demands have evolved, Serbian president Aleksandar Vučić appears to be digging in his heels. Support the podcast visit: www.patreon.com/talkeasterneurope
