The Supreme Court's recent decision to limit the president's use of emergency tariff authority set off a wave of commentary declaring the end of Trump's trade agenda. But one week later, the reality looks far more complicated than what the chattering class might lead you to think. If IEEPA is off the table, what tools remain? What happens to the deals already struck? And does this ruling mark a retreat from tariff policy, or will the administration simply a shift to firmer legal ground?Mark DiPlacido, senior political economist at American Compass, joins Oren to assess where things stand. They delve into the alternative authorities available to the administration—Sections 232, 301, and 122; what a “balance of payments” means in practice; and how sectoral tariffs on steel, semiconductors, pharmaceuticals, and critical minerals might reshape the next phase of trade policy. They also explore what a stable endpoint for Trump's tariff strategy would actually look like and what Congress would need to do to make a better system of global trade permanent.

Sarah May Bates https://www.sarahmaybates.com/ is an AI director, and she's been getting lots of work! And Matt and Oren dive deep into how she makes that happen. She's joined by actor Susan Song.Sarah has a clear line for AI usage. And it comes down to what are you in this for? Do you love the organic aspect of filmmaking and discovery, where what you plan isn't always what you get? Like, in a good way.Because if you're not, you might prefer the robotic precision of AI.But be careful of being tricked into believing that's what brands want, especially the top brands you want to work for.At the end of the day, Sarah believes human oversight is at the core of what creatives do. Like, why would you want to have AI write your script, or even your email? That's what you do, and that's what makes you who you are!Here's the golden rule: if the medium is leading, then you are failing.What does that mean? Don't fall into the trap of creating AI for the sake of filling the request. Instead, Sarah recommends letting the creative work find what it wants to be!This is the episode you want to hear as an actor, filmmaker, or anyone in the industry looking for some sense of purpose, foundation, and compass for what's happening in AI!Connect with Sarah at https://www.yaywithme.comConnect with Susan on IG @sujjang012---Help Matts' film: https://wefunder.com/badfeelingHelp our Patreon! https://www.patreon.com/JustShootItPodMatt's Endorsement: Send Help https://www.imdb.com/title/tt8036976/Nick Lutsko's song for the Manscaped Super Bowl Commercial https://www.local3news.com/local-news/update-chattanooga-artist-nick-lutsko-composes-song-for-national-super-bowl-commercial/article_dd5d9cd0-9c5a-4565-a1af-1dfe3d1ffdda.htmlSarah's Endorsement: The UPA Cartoon "Rooty Toot Toot" https://cartoonresearch.com/index.php/the-70th-anniversary-of-rooty-toot-toot/ The documentary on the animation company UPA https://www.cartoonbrew.com/documentary-2/animation-mavericks-the-forgotten-story-of-upa-documentary-258284.html The book "Bird by Bird", by Anne Lamott https://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/97395/bird-by-bird-by-anne-lamott/Susan's Endorsement: See the Backstreet Boys at the Sphere, in Las VegasOren's Endorsement: @stuffaboutadvertising on Instagram Hosted on Acast.

Reflexiones de los Mensajes de la Virgen Maria en Medjugorge
En este mensaje, la Virgen nos invita a vivir la Cuaresma con oración generosa, sacrificio sincero y lectura consciente de la Sagrada Escritura. Nos recuerda que la oración en familia abre la puerta al Espíritu Santo y prepara nuestro corazón para la Pascua. Si perseveramos, experimentaremos la abundancia de las bendiciones de Dios en nuestra vida y en nuestra familia.
Meditación del Evangelio según San Mateo 6, 7-15 por el biblista P. Norberto Padilla, misionero claretiano.Martes 24/feb/2026, Ustedes oren así.Canción: Padre Nuestro Cantado (2021), de Yuli y Josh----------Lectura del santo evangelio según san Mateo 6, 7-15En aquel tiempo dijo Jesús a sus discípulos: "Cuando recen no usen muchas palabras, como los paganos, que se imaginan que por hablar mucho les harán caso. No sean como ellos, pues su Padre sabe lo que les hace falta antes que se lo pidan." Ustedes recen así: "Padre nuestro del cielo, santificado sea tu nombre, venga tu reino, hágase tu voluntad en la tierra como en el cielo; danos hoy el pan nuestro; perdona nuestras ofensas, pues nosotros hemos perdonado a los que nos han ofendido; no nos dejes caer en tentación, sino líbranos del maligno. Porque si perdonan a los demás sus culpas, también su Padre del cielo les perdonará a ustedes. Pero si no perdonan a los demás, tampoco su Padre perdonará sus culpas."Palabra del Señor... Gloria a ti, Señor Jesús#SoyClaretiano #Evangelio #MisionerosClaretianos #CMFAntillasIntro: Lámpara Es Tu Palabra, de Ain Karem
Oren Harman tells us about his latest book, "Metamorphosis: A Natural and Human History. ," where Harman traces a path from Aristotle to Darwin to cutting-edge science today, to explore this miraculous yet violent process of transformation and metaphor for identity, reinvention, and survival.
Israel has never been stronger. Since October 7, 2023, Israel has steadily rolled back its enemies in Gaza, Lebanon, and Iran. A staunch friend of Israel is in the White House, and he might well launch a second wave of strikes on Israel's archenemy in Tehran. Or is Israel historically vulnerable? None of the adversaries it has taken on since the Hamas invasion are defeated. US President Donald Trump is an ally, but both the Democratic and Republican parties have influential and growing wings that are hostile to Israel, if not antisemitic.To make sense of this moment, one needs a grasp of military strategy, Middle East geopolitics, and the workings of the US-Israel relationship. Michael Oren, Israel's former envoy in Jerusalem and a leading Middle East historian, says that the post-October 7 wars represent "one of the greatest military victories in modern history, perhaps in all history." However, it remains to be seen whether Israel can translate the military victories into permanent strategic and diplomatic gains. On the potential for a US strike in Iran, Oren stresses the importance of missile defense for the US Navy, as Iran's greatest achievement would be the sinking of an American aircraft carrier. He predicts that after Trump issued clear threats and put his reputation on the line, he is not going to back down and leave a legacy that could be compared to that of Barack Obama. Looking at the future of the US-Israeli relationship, Oren notes that the US is going through domestic processes that Israel has no control over, but often use Israel to score political points. Given those trends, Israel should diversify its diplomatic relationships, but there will never be a replacement for American support. Oren firmly supports Israel moving off of US military aid, and transforming its relationship with Washington into one of equal partners working together to develop capabilities.

In this episode, I sit down with Oren Hefetz—a leader who spent 16 years at the heart of Google's global operations, yet identifies first and foremost as a historian (who wrote a book about it!), and whom I'm grateful to have as one of my best friends & colleagues. While his track record includes launching YouTube across emerging markets and building Google's Startup Growth Lab, our conversation dives far beneath the surface of corporate success. Oren brings a unique, grounded perspective on how we, as founders and human beings, can remain present and purposeful in a world driven by exponential technology. We explore the essential shift from traditional management to "Conscious Leadership," and why the most critical upgrade we can make isn't to our software, but to our own internal awareness. One of the most meaningful moments of the conversation was when Oren shared a pivotal moment from a retreat in India where he confronted the defining trauma of his life—the loss of his mother at age four—on the very same day ChatGPT reached 100 million users. This convergence of deep personal healing and rapid technological evolution sparked his realization that in an "exponential age," leaders must upgrade their own internal consciousness to match the pace of external change. Learning from the "Failure" that Led to Joining Google Before his long tenure at Google, Oren was an entrepreneur who founded a startup specifically to compete with Google's ad network. While he describes it as a business failure, he credits his "naive optimism" for turning that experience into a bridge to his future success. He believes that leaders who embrace their passion and stay true to their inner voice can navigate even the most disruptive setbacks. The P.I.N.E. Framework for Modern Leaders Oren utilizes a specific methodology to help founders and executives navigate the complexities of the modern workplace: Purpose: Identifying the core "why" behind every action. Intentions: Determining the practical steps and mindset needed to manifest that purpose. Networks: Understanding the web of human relationships and how we influence one another. Emotions: Leveraging emotional intelligence and the "gut feeling" as a compass for decision-making. The Intelligence of the Three Brains Oren & I explain that humans possess three biological "brains": the head (90 billion neurons), the heart (50,000 neurons), and the gut (half a billion neurons). While AI is rapidly commoditizing raw IQ and knowledge, the human differentiator is the ability to connect these three centers. He argues that "Conscious Leadership" is about moving beyond just the head to lead with the heart and intuition. A Mantra for Resilience: Acknowledge Reality, Find Peace The core of Oren's philosophy is captured in a single mantra: "Acknowledge reality and find peace". He explains that many people tend to escape or hide from overwhelming changes in technology and politics. Instead, he advocates for a deep understanding of current reality, which allows a leader to find the inner stillness necessary to lead effectively through chaos.

Capitalism has undergone a profound shift, as our financial system has moved away from its primary role of channeling capital into productive investments. Corporate priorities have instead turned toward maximizing short-term shareholder returns and deploying complex financial engineering that boosts firms' bottom lines. In the process, American communities and long-term economic growth have paid the price.Oren joins guest host Chris Griswold to discuss how this process of financialization is distorting the American economy and undermining capitalism itself. He explains how practices like leveraged buyouts, stock buybacks, and speculative financial activity have reshaped corporate incentives, why critics often conflate profit with value creation, and how these trends affect Americans and their communities.Further Reading:“The Finance Industry Is a Grift.

A search for the meaning of one of nature's greatest riddles: why do so many creatures transform? “How many creatures walking on this earth / Have their first being in another form?” the Roman poet Ovid asked two thousand years ago. He could not have known the full extent of the truth: today, biologists estimate a stunning three-quarters of all animal species on Earth undergo some form of metamorphosis.But why do tadpoles transform into frogs, caterpillars into butterflies, elvers into eels, immortal jellyfish from sea sprigs to medusae and back again, growing younger and younger in frigid ocean depths? Why must creatures go through massive destruction and remodeling to become who they are? Tracing a path from Aristotle to Darwin to cutting-edge science today, Harman explores that central mystery in Metamorphosis: A Natural and Human History (Basic Books, 2025).Metamorphosis, however, isn't just a biological puzzle: it takes us to the very heart of questions of being and identity, whatever kind of change we humans may undergo. Metamorphosis is a new classic of natural history: a book that, by unveiling a mystery of nature, causes us to relearn ourselves. Learn more about your ad choices.

Microsoft's financial results beat expectations but the company loses $357 billion in market value in a single day after investors learn the extent of its dependence on OpenAI. Meanwhile, OpenAI leases 10 floors of office space in Bellevue, lawmakers in Olympia propose new taxes impacting startup exits and high-income earners, and the bots get their own social network. In our featured conversation, recorded at a dinner hosted by Accenture in Bellevue, GeekWire co-founder Todd Bishop sits down with computer scientist and entrepreneur Oren Etzioni to talk about AI agents, the startup landscape, the fight against deepfakes, and what good AI leadership looks like. Etzioni is co-founder of AI agent startup Vercept, founder of the AI2 Incubator, a venture partner at Madrona, and the former founding CEO of the Allen Institute for AI.

America's housing shortage is often framed as a simple supply problem, but building the kinds of homes families actually need has proven far more complicated. While capital continues to flow into large suburban developments and luxury apartment buildings, the market has stopped producing the modest, family-friendly housing that once anchored stable communities and enabled young families to remain in thriving cities.Bobby Fijan, co-founder of the American Housing Corporation, joins Oren to discuss why the “starter home” has largely disappeared and how development incentives, zoning rules, and capital markets have reshaped what gets built. They explore why current housing designs increasingly favor singles and roommates over families, how housing supply shapes family formation, urban vitality, and economic mobility, and how prefab manufacturing and vertically integrated construction start-ups like the American Housing Corporation could help deliver row homes in established neighborhoods and begin to change the culture.
Just Shoot It: A Podcast about Filmmaking, Screenwriting and Directing
Producer Jonathan Burns https://www.linkedin.com/in/jonathanaburns talks about his methods for selecting the vibe that he presents to brands and agencies. And the different considerations that drive his every choice from kraft, to restaurants, crew decisions, and more.Matt and Oren have worked with Jonathan on multiple occasions. And they talk about what separates a production manager who's graduated “in title” to producer, from a producer who really can be more than a better production coordinator, and box checker.It's being good at being client-facing. And as an expert, Jonathan has gained a lot of knowledge about ways in which directors lose clients. And there are some missteps you'll want to avoid.How can you be compromising and easy to work with, and still be a commercial director that gets asked back? Should you do animatics, and does anyone care? What does it mean to stand up for your vision and not be a pain in the a** director?If you've been dying for some mentorship as a commercial director, you won't want to miss this episode!Connect with Jonathan on IG: @jburnsfilm---Help Matts' film: https://wefunder.com/badfeelingHelp our Patreon! https://www.patreon.com/JustShootItPodMatt's Endorsement: Klizia 97 Stapler https://www.amazon.com/s?srs=20289756011&rh=p_89%3AEllepiOren's Endorsement: GQ Jordan Nutrition's recipe on Instagram for a power bar.

Welcome to the 7th season of the Knowledge of Nothing (KON) podcast! Where your hosts, Tony, Brian, Oren and Wayne (aka the KONMen) discuss the inane, somewhat entertaining, and occasionally educational topics on a weekly basis. This week's show is small but mighty! Brian discusses what he wants his legacy to be and it's not what you think. Tony has a “size” issue with Instagram and Wayne shares a new airline pre-flight message that should be on all airlines. Oren packs in a puzzling bug fact and almost gets Wayne to crack with his jokes and we finally get to hear who won the NFL Hometown Pickem's…hopefully. The show wraps with another installment of Idiots on Idioms but this time the phrases are taken from 17th & 18th century literary works and they all sound way more vulgar than expected.

Reflexiones de los Mensajes de la Virgen Maria en Medjugorge
María nos abre su corazón y nos enseña que la verdadera fuerza nace de una fe unida a una confianza ilimitada en el amor del Padre.

America's welfare programs have long operated on the assumption that states and nonprofits could responsibly steward federal dollars with minimal oversight. But a series of explosive fraud cases—from California to Mississippi to Minnesota—have exposed just how broken that system has become, with lax oversight and minimal accountability leading to billions of dollars stolen from taxpayers.Shad White, Mississippi's state auditor and author of Mississippi Swindle, joins Oren to explain how his office uncovered one of the largest welfare scandals in modern history and what it reveals about America's safety net. They discuss why grant-based welfare programs are uniquely vulnerable to abuse, how federalism often undermines accountability, and how practical reforms like stronger enforcement, clearer metrics, and simpler program design can restore public trust while helping the families who need support most.
The federal sex crimes trial of Alon, Oren, and Tal Alexander is underway in New York City. Prosecutors accuse the real estate and security moguls of sex trafficking, drugging, and raping multiple women and girls. The defense has countered that the brothers are just womanizers, not criminals, and that all sex was consensual. Law&Crime's Jesse Weber sat down with former Palm Beach County State Attorney Dave Aronberg to break down the stunning allegations, the explosive opening statements, and the key witness testimony in this high-stakes case.PLEASE SUPPORT THE SHOW: Check out Particle's Face Cream here: https://particleformen.co/sidebar and use my code SIDEBAR20 for a 20% discount sitewide.HOST:Jesse Weber: https://twitter.com/jessecordweberLAW&CRIME SIDEBAR PRODUCTION:YouTube Management - Bobby SzokeVideo Editing - Michael Deininger, Christina O'Shea, Alex Ciccarone, & Jay CruzScript Writing & Producing - Savannah Williamson & Juliana BattagliaGuest Booking - Alyssa Fisher & Diane KayeSocial Media Management - Vanessa BeinSTAY UP-TO-DATE WITH THE LAW&CRIME NETWORK:Watch Law&Crime Network on YouTubeTV: https://bit.ly/3td2e3yWhere To Watch Law&Crime Network: https://bit.ly/3akxLK5Sign Up For Law&Crime's Daily Newsletter: https://bit.ly/LawandCrimeNewsletterRead Fascinating Articles From Law&Crime Network: https://bit.ly/3td2IqoLAW&CRIME NETWORK SOCIAL MEDIA:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/lawandcrimeTwitter: https://twitter.com/LawCrimeNetworkFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/lawandcrimeTwitch: https://www.twitch.tv/lawandcrimenetworkTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@lawandcrimeSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

How important is Sundance to your career as a commercial director? Matt and Oren talk about their experiences in Park City before the festival wraps up its last year in Utah. With Matt working to raise money for his latest film, “Bad Feeling”, there's a lively discussion about whether making narrative films can advance your career as a commercial director. And the answer is, for some directors, it can make you stand out. But for others, there's a better way.Then Oren talks about his latest experience shooting outside Los Angeles. And Matt and Oren talk about how to handle the shoot schedule your AD creates. And they raise some good points about what to watch for when shooting out of order. Especially when working with athletes.For example, in LA, actors and crews will help you manage issues related to continuity that have more to do with than just “was this there in the last scene”. It's Oscar time, Sundance season, and the festival circuit is just kicking off!

Reflexiones de los Mensajes de la Virgen Maria en Medjugorge
La Virgen María nos invita hoy a orar y a ser oración viva, porque hemos dicho “sí” a su llamado. Nos recuerda que hemos sido escogidos por Dios para ser instrumentos de su amor y para ayudar a que otros lo conozcan a través de nuestra vida. Vivamos esta invitación con valentía, amor y fidelidad, sabiendo que María camina con nosotros y nos sostiene en esta misión.
The annual gathering of the world's leadership class at the World Economic Forum in Davos bills itself as high-minded forum for increased global cooperation in the now-struggling old international order. But, in practice, it's more of a concentrated mass of industry titans flexing with their various status badges, “bilaterals,” and AI slogans all while anxiously refreshing their phones for the latest updates on the Trump administration's next moves.Filming from his hotel room in the Alps, Oren, our intrepid correspondent in Davos, joins Drew to report what he heard and saw from these often panic-stricken elites. They discuss how the Davos crowd is really reacting to Trump's approach to alliances and American leadership, why episodes like Greenland trigger outsized panic among our allies, and where legitimate concerns about trust and cooperation get lost in elite groupthink.Further Reading:“A Sharp Break over a Piece of Ice,” Oren Cass, Commonplace.
Reflexiones de los Mensajes de la Virgen Maria en Medjugorge
La Virgen nos invita a orar para descubrir en el corazón cuánto valemos para Jesús y cuánto Él nos ama. La oración no hace que Dios empiece a amarnos, sino que abre nuestros ojos para reconocer su amor vivo. Cuando nos dejamos amar por Él y lo vivimos en nuestra vida, otros pueden descubrir a Jesús vivo en nosotros.

When Sergio Cilli https://www.imdb.com/name/nm1826186/ made his first AI film, it really didn't get noticed. And neither did many others he made. Sure they were good. But what got noticed more was the one video he made, which showed why AI isn't quite and why it's not yet the monster filmmakers fear.Sergio joins Kristyna Archer https://www.archer.vision/ to talk about making AI films. What works, what doesn't, and how filmmakers can be ready for what comes next.Matt and Oren dive into how much it costs, where commercial budgets might be headed, and how AI will be adopted into filmmaking and commercials. And Sergio and Kristyna bring two different perspectives.Kristyna is an Adobe Firefly, an AI ambassador for Adobe, and has a background working with LED volume walls, Unreal Engine, and generally skews to the tech side of things. Sergio came from fear. It was only after his wife encouraged him to experiment that he discovered his desire to explore AI and filmmaking.This is a conversation about AI that tackles the elephant in the room from a variety of perspectives from working commercial directors. And it's not just talk, it's commercial directors who've actually explored the tools and put out some stuff – that if it wasn't impressive, it could cast a shadow on their directing careers. Or as Oren's friend likes to say, it tackles the “elephant that AI'nt in the room”.See Sergio's AI Audition video at https://youtu.be/AEbqJj2hIjgAnd find Sergio and Kristyna on Instagram @sergiocilli and @archerstudioooooo---Help our Patreon! https://www.patreon.com/JustShootItPodMatt's Endorsement: MoldQuestVHS on Instagram @moldquestvhsOren's Endorsement: The Pitt on HBO and the video "Beat Any Escape Room- 10 proven tricks and tips" from Mark Rober https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zwgaTYOx0RISergio's Endorsement: "Extraordinary Things to Cutout and Collage", the book. https://www.mariarivans.com/extraordinary-things-to-cut-out-and-collage and Four Sigmatic Mushroom Coffee https://us.foursigmatic.com/products/original-mushroom-coffeeKristyna's Endorsement: The Wonder App has a great community of artists, producers, conversation and more, https://app.wonderstudios.com/ And also the Endel App https://endel.io/ for people with ADHD.

In a shocking twist to one of the year's most closely watched legal battles, Kate Whiteman — the first woman to legally accuse the Alexander brothers of SA — has been found dead in Australia just weeks before the high-stakes federal trial is set to begin. Authorities in New South Wales have ruled her death “non-suspicious,” but the timing has reignited nationwide media attention and public scrutiny. Whiteman's lawsuit, filed in March 2024, was the catalyst for dozens of additional claims from women across New York, Florida, California and beyond, accusing the wealthy real estate siblings of drugging, coercing and assaulting them over more than a decade. Now, as jury selection opens this month in Manhattan, prosecutors are moving forward with some of the most serious federal sex trafficking and conspiracy charges seen in years — charges that could put the Alexander brothers behind bars for life. The Alexander brothers — Oren, Alon, and Tal Alexander — are accused in a sweeping federal indictment that alleges a long-running scheme to exploit women using their wealth, influence and luxury lifestyle.Support the show & be a part of #STSNation:Donate to STS' Trial Travel: Https://www.paypal.com/ncp/payment/GJ...VENMO: @STSPodcast or Https://www.venmo.com/stspodcastCheck out STS Merch: Https://www.bonfire.com/store/sts-store/Joel's Book: Https://amzn.to/48GwbLxSupport the show on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/SurvivingTheSurvivorEmail: SurvivingTheSurvivor@gmail.com Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Reflexiones de los Mensajes de la Virgen Maria en Medjugorge
En este mensaje, la Virgen María nos hace una invitación urgente y llena de amor: orar sin cesar. Nos recuerda que en la oración encontramos el gozo verdadero y la luz para enfrentar cualquier dificultad. Al vivir la oración con el corazón, la Eucaristía, la Palabra de Dios, el ayuno y la confesión, fortalecemos nuestra fe y permanecemos unidos a Dios. Así, caminando de la mano de María, aprendemos que quien ora con perseverancia nunca camina solo.
Inflation may have cooled, but Americans still feel squeezed. Groceries are still expensive, housing and health care costs continue to outpace wages, and consumer credit debt continues to balloon, leaving a gap between encouraging economic data and the daily experience of the average American. Voters continue to express concern, and the Trump administration has responded with a flurry of proposals aimed at bringing prices down.Daniel Kishi, senior policy advisor at American Compass, joins Oren to make sense of what's actually driving the affordability crisis and how policymakers should respond. They examine recent, sometimes unconventional, ideas from the administration to expand housing supply, cap credit card rates, overhaul health care, and empower more aggressive antitrust enforcement. Plus, they discuss the necessary role that Congress must play in codifying workable, populist solutions if the affordability crisis is to be solved.Further Reading:“Trump's New Volcker Shock" by Henry Olsen“Our Concentrated Health Care Markets Are Anything but ‘Free'" by Chris Griswold
