After an episode of extreme, headline-driven volatility in April, financial markets have shifted to docility in May. Position risks in equity and FX markets are now much reduced and, absent further clarity on US trade and fiscal policies, a wait-and-see approach is the order of the day. Fatigue has set in and, as our guest this week, Lee Ferridge, Head of Macro Strategy for the Americas at State Street Markets, notes, high conviction views are in short supply. This week, we think about how to navigate the onset of summer and whether the ennui of recent weeks makes it a time to 'sell in May and go away', as the old trading adage goes. Or, if just the 'go away' part will suffice.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

"You stand to win everything. Call it." Dir: Ethan & Joel Coen

Thomas, DingDong und Jacko kehren dem Weltraum den Rücken und stürzen sich mit The Road in eine düstere, schonungslose Postapokalypse. In dieser trostlosen Welt kämpfen Viggo Mortensen und sein Filmspross — gespielt von Kodi Smit-McPhee — ums nackte Überleben auf dem Weg zum Meer. Die Verfilmung des gefeierten Romans von No Country for Old Men-Autor Cormac McCarthy wurde seinerzeit mit Spannung erwartet – und ebenso schnell wieder aus dem kollektiven Gedächtnis verdrängt. Doch verdient der Film wirklich dieses Schattendasein? Welche Art von Science-Fiction euch in The Road erwartet und ob sich ein Blick heute noch lohnt, erfahrt ihr im Podcast.

At the bottom of page two they have recommendations for individuals with limited big toe extension. Worth noting that the ever-popular Hokas are ONLY for people with limited big toe extension, meaning, for people who wear them without this issue they can absolutely be causing other problems--low back pain, etc.  I believe the shoe list is updated twice/year to stay current with what models are available. Also, year to year as the shoes are updated they may no longer meet the criteria so it's good for people to know that just because a shoe is on the list one year does not mean the next year it will still be a good choice.    To see pictures and things we discussed in todays episode check out the podcast page of The Op.

This exploration hits on all the ways that reading McCarthy is a master class in all elements of fiction:  textured narrative voices, description of violence, sympathy for complex characters, dark humor, and others--not to mention gorgeous prose.

As an Indigenous human rights lawyer and writer from Guam, Julian Aguon's book 'No Country for Eight Spot Butterflies' memorizes grief from family to country and into one of the most difficult, intangible feelings of our time: climate grief. Drawing on his experience with the law and litigation against nuclear-powered countries, Aguon reminds us that no love is ever wasted, and grief is so often an expression of that love. Part of that love begs us to question, what does a better world look like? How do we imagine justice for generations upon generations? Where do we go from here?

Movie of the Year: 1996Fargo (feat. iFanboy's Josh Flanagan)Is Fargo (1996) Really a True Story? This week on Movie of the Year, our panel of film obsessives takes a deep dive into the Coen Brothers' legendary crime thriller, Fargo (1996). From its bleak, snow-covered landscapes to its uniquely offbeat characters, Fargo is a film that has stood the test of time. But does it have what it takes to be crowned the best movie of the year? Tune in as we dissect this darkly comedic masterpiece.The Genre of Fargo (1996): Crime, Comedy, or Both?One of Fargo (1996)'s greatest strengths is its ability to seamlessly blend genres. Is it a crime thriller? A dark comedy? A neo-noir? The film walks the tightrope between tension and absurdity, crafting a world where violent criminals, desperate schemes, and Minnesota Nice collide in unforgettable ways. Our hosts explore how Fargo defies genre conventions and why this unique blend makes it such a compelling film.For more discussions on genre-bending movies, check out our deep dive into The Big Lebowski or No Country for Old Men.The Setting of Fargo (1996): More Than Just SnowFargo (1996) isn't just a movie—it's an immersive experience of the American Midwest. Despite its title, most of the film unfolds in Minnesota, capturing the distinct speech patterns, mannerisms, and cold, barren beauty of the region. We discuss how the Coen Brothers use the setting as a character itself, influencing the tone, the story, and even the humor. Would Fargo be the same film without its chilling, small-town backdrop? We break it all down.For more insights on film settings, read our analysis of There Will Be Blood.Is Fargo (1996) a True Story? The Real vs. the FictionalFrom the opening title card claiming “This is a true story,” Fargo has left audiences debating its origins for nearly three decades.

We uncover the truth behind the film's inspiration and discuss how its true crime aesthetic enhances its mystique.Want to learn more about real vs. fictionalized crime films? Check out our episode on Zodiac.Special Guest: Josh Flanagan from iFanboyJoining us this week is none other than Josh Flanagan from iFanboy! As a longtime film and comic book expert, Josh brings his signature wit and insight to the discussion.

[EP 25-104] There is a line in the movie No Country for Old Men where Tommy Lee Jones' character said that civilization began to fall when kids stopped saying “Yes Sir and Yes Maam”. Think of what “pronouns” did to that. And the lexicon of father and mother disappearing. That's biblical. Honor thy father and thy mother.

Topics include: the origins of Cormac McCarthy's novel, the Coens process of adapting it, key differences between Chigurh's portrayal in the book vs the movie, reactions to the subversive final act, what the movie leaves out, the ways in which it might actually one-up the source material, and much more!

In Donald Trump's world, friends and enemies trade places with breathtaking speed. Consider the case of Ukraine.President Joe Biden hailed Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky as “the man of the year” and pledged that the U.S. “will not walk away from Ukraine” in its war against Russia, which attacked Ukraine and annexed Crimea in 2014, and launched a full scale invasion of Ukraine in 2022.Last week, President Donald Trump called Zelensky “a dictator,” falsely blamed Ukraine for starting the war with Russia, and effectively walked away from Ukraine by halting the delivery of weapons and stopping intelligence sharing. Trump has praised Russian President Vladimir Putin as “savvy” and a “genius.”Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau expressed the whiplash that many are feeling about Trump when he said, "Today the United States launched a trade war against Canada, their closest partner and ally, their closest friend. At the same time, they are talking about working positively with Russia, appeasing Vladimir Putin, a lying, murderous dictator. Make that make sense." Yaroslav Trofimov has long been making sense of a complicated world. He is the chief foreign correspondent for the Wall Street Journal. Trofimov was born in Ukraine and has reported from the front lines there. He was a finalist for the Pulitzer Prize in international reporting in 2023 for his work on Ukraine, and in 2022 for his work on Afghanistan, and won the National Press Club award for political analysis in 2024. He is the author of four books, including “No Country for Love,” a historical novel set in Ukraine that was inspired by his family history, and was published this month.Describing the disastrous meeting between Presidents Zelensky and Trump, Trofimov quoted Lech Walesa, the former trade union leader and president of Poland, who co-signed a letter with former Polish political prisoners saying that “the meeting in the Oval Office reminded him of the interrogations he had in the communist secret police rooms and in the kangaroo communist courts, where, as he said, we were also told we have no cards.”“Zelensky told Trump that I'd like to sign an agreement, but what is the guarantee that Putin won't attack again? And Trump's response was basically, Trust me bro.”Trump's “priority is not a peaceful settlement in Ukraine. His main priority seems to be to open up relations with Vladimir Putin's Russia, economic, political, geopolitical,” said Trofimov.“Zelensky is just a chip to be traded, and it looks like the administration will be perfectly happy for the war to end on Russia's terms, meaning that Ukraine will fall back on the de facto Russian rule (under) Russian authority as long as its mineral wealth is sent over the United States.”What is behind Trump's warm embrace of Putin?Trofimov explained that Putin “has always believed that big powers like Russia have the right to a sphere of influence, to arrange things in the neighborhood, and that it's a natural right. And President Putin has described his policy as the Monroe Doctrine 2.0, which is the American version of this 19th century imperialism.”Similarly, Trump is “laying claims on Greenland, Canada, and the Panama Canal, which is very similar to the language that Putin is using against Ukraine or the Baltic states. It is also kind of aided by changes inside the American Conservative ... MAGA movement, where a certain fetishization of Russia has taken hold.”“In the, in the collective imagination of parts of MAGA, Russia is seen as this beacon of Christian family values, traditional values, this antidote to the woke virus. It couldn't be further from the actual Russia that exists, which is a country with one of (the highest) abortion and divorce rates, with rapidly shrinking population, with endemic corruption.”What will happen to Ukraine if the U.S. ends its support?Trofimov believes that “Ukraine will not fold … and Europe, if it really wants to, can sustain Ukraine,” noting that “the European economies are about 12 times the size of Russia.”“There is a growing realization in Europe that allowing Russia to win in Ukraine will cause much bigger pain in a few years. … Perhaps that will be the end of Europe.”That is why Europeans are dramatically boosting defense spending. “Obviously, it's much easier with the United States on board, much, much easier. But it doesn't mean that Ukraine or Europe are doomed if the U.S. decides to play for the other team.”I asked Trofimov whether he was optimistic or pessimistic about Ukraine's future. He replied by quoting a popular Ukrainian song from the 1920s. “Crying has never brought freedom to anyone. So it's not the time to be despondent or pessimistic. It's the time to do things. Ukrainians are doing things, and the Europeans are starting to do things, and if they keep doing things, then they will be okay.”

What can we do about land power? It's the most important question and my guest today is Mike Albertus. Mike is a professor of political science at the University of Chicago. He's the author of the new book, Land Power. Who has it? Who doesn't? And how that determines the fate of societies. In the book, Mike examines how land became power, how it shapes power today still, and how who holds that power determines the fundamental social problems that societies grapple with. Mike studies how countries allocate opportunity and well-being among their citizens and the consequences this has for society, why some countries are democratic and others are not, and why some societies fall into civil conflict.-----------Have feedback or questions?

We take a critical lens to "Nomadland" and "Birdman," highlighting the ways these films sparked differing emotional reactions and reflecting on the artistic risks that paid off—or didn't. Whether it's the excitement of "Argo" or the atmospheric intensity of "No Country for Old Men," our conversation dives deep into the elements that make these films both resonate and divide audiences.Finally, our exploration wouldn't be complete without an analysis of cultural milestones such as "Moonlight" and "Spotlight," shining a light on their enduring significance in film history. We speculate on the future of cinema, pondering over potential 2025 Best Picture contenders like "The Brutalist" and "The Substance."

On February 12rd, Donald Trump held lengthty calls with Vladimir Putin and Volodymyr Zelenskyy to advance a vague peace plan for Ukraine. But can a peace deal actually come together in a way that upholds Ukraine's determination to exist as an independent state, free from Russia's yoke? And does Russia have any incentive to relent, given its slow but steady progress on the battlefield against war-weary Ukrainian soldiers? Joining me to discuss these questions and more is Yaroslav Trofimov, a Ukrainian-born journalist and chief foreign affairs correspondent for The Wall Street Journal. His book Our Enemies Will Vanish, published last year, tells the story of Russia's invasion of Ukraine and Ukrainians' determined efforts to push back. His new book, No Country for Love, is a work of historical fiction set in Ukraine in the 1930s. Hear directly from one of the best journalists covering Ukraine today as he shares insights on the current state of the conflict, Zelenskyy's domestic political challenges, and whether or not Trump's peace plan is for real. You will learn a lot from this conversation. I certainly did.

Josh Brolin joins Ryan to talk about the childhood trauma that shaped him, the cathartic process of writing his memoir, and how confronting his past became a form of personal healing. Josh also shares how Stoicism has profoundly influenced his outlook on life, helping him navigate adversity, build resilience, and embrace the messiness of life.
