Yon says the Strait of Hormuz is effectively closed and argues conflicts are interconnected, predicting flashpoints including the Falklands/Malvinas involving Argentina, possible spillover into Brazil and Uruguay, and wider fighting affecting Europe and the North Sea. He emphasizes hydraulic warfare, describing how dams on the Nile (GERD in Ethiopia), Euphrates (Atatürk Dam), Tigris (Mosul Dam), and China's Three Gorges could be used for famine and destruction. He also discusses Tibet/Nepal flood events, chokepoints like Suez, Gibraltar/Ceuta, Bab-el-Mandeb, Panama, and Malacca, plus language, migration, intoxicants, music, demographic, and economic warfare. 00:00 Morning Intro in Japan 00:32 Baby Due Soon 01:38 Kiri Tree Tradition 04:16 Hormuz and Global War 05:48 South Atlantic Flashpoints 08:15 Nepal Disaster and Tibet 13:24 Hydraulic Warfare Explained 15:13 Egypt and the Nile Dams 29:45 Turkey Iraq and China Dams 34:28 Prayer Wheel Spycraft 36:35 Local Flood Risks and Drought 38:53 Ceuta Flashpoint 39:32 Gibraltar Chokepoint History 41:16 Phosphate Power Politics 41:43 Global Chokepoints Strategy 45:05 Florida And Brazil Predictions 48:22 Ceuta Migrants As Weapon 51:32 Language Warfare Morocco 56:27 Books Burned And Forecasts 59:17 Safe Havens And Zionism 01:02:49 Cults And Empire Origins 01:05:51 Warfare Taxonomy Explained 01:12:36 Corporate Superstructure Wrap 01:15:01 Closing Thanks And Anecdote

If you told a young Javier Simons that he would one day own his own talent agency and hold an MBA from Rice Business, he would have been in disbelief.Growing up in Panama, Javier's path into the music industry was anything but conventional, he says. After years of waiting tables, Javier taught himself the business of entertainment from backstage, and fell in love with the in's and out's of talent booking and artist management. It was this passion that drove him to creating KOQ Agency, a global touring and talent agency representing independent artists. With the help of an MBA from Rice Business, Javier has scaled KOQ internationally, even booking Danish band Aqua's first U.S. tour.Javier joins co-host Brian Jackson '21 to talk about his path from club promoting to entrepreneur, what it really takes to build an artist's career from the ground up, how the MBA gave him the financial and leadership toolkit he was missing, what leading the Entrepreneurship Through Acquisition Conference meant to him, and why staying “delusional” is the key to chasing and achieving your dreams.Episode Guide:00:00 Javier Simons Introduction01:03 Early Spark for Live Entertainment03:59 Hard Knocks Education06:53 Founding KOQ Agency09:42 Earning Artist Trust12:30 Booking Aqua U.S. Tour18:16 Riders and Show Crises21:06 Leadership at Denver Pride23:37 Why Rice MBA26:01 Entrepreneurship Through Acquisition Conference Legacy29:01 Advice for Breaking Into The Music IndustryThe Owl Have You Know Podcast is a production of Rice Business and is produced by University FM.Episode Quotes:On taking the risks to discover your potential15:20: One of the things that entrepreneurs need to have is take the risk, because I didn't know my full potential until I did that. Once I did Aqua, that's when I realized that there was no challenge big or small enough that I couldn't achieve. It was really an eye-opening moment, especially when I was going through launch week and starting my first semester of the MBA program. And I remember texting my, my core team at 5:00 AM. I said, "If you see me with bags under my eyes and you don't hear from me until 5:30 before class, this is why." And I sent them the poster of the tour before it had released, and they were so supportive. They were, they were very excited. I think in general, I was the only person working in music, so it was kind of fascinating to them to see somebody that was kind of working a field that I don't think anybody in my, in my cohort was, was working. I took them on a journey with me.What we call delusion as an adult is what a kid calls a dream28:19: What we call delusion as an adult is what a kid calls a dream, you know? And we always need to keep dreaming. I think as adults, we tend to not dream anymore. We tend to just go by facts and figures and, and analytics and, and understanding what the results and predictability and we really lose that charm, that innocence that really drove us when we were young to do things that we would never thought we could do. And I know that this is the beginning of something great, because I feel a big change coming.What's the biggest misconception artists have about building a sustainable career?36:07: I think the biggest misconception artists have is that there is only one pathway to monetize their art, and that is not true. A musician can monetize their music five different ways. Through publishing, through licensing, through live events, and ancillary revenue can be merchandised through the image of the artist and brand partnerships, of course. And there's also the element of music writing and being a producer, right? So learn how your art can be monetized. Don't record a song and throw it on, on SoundCloud and hope that it sticks.Show Links: Championing Diversity from Concerts to Classrooms: Meet Javier Simons, Professional MBA Student | Rice Business, Student StoriesTranscriptGuest Profile:Javier Simons | Rice BusinessJavier Simons | LinkedIn

CONTENTS JOHN BATCHELOR SHOW 8-27-2026.Anatol Lieven warns that foreign policy establishments in both the United States and Britain have embraced a dangerous militarism. He highlights how the Biden administration failed to rejoin the nuclear deal with Iran, seeking instead a harder bargain. Furthermore, Europe faces acute escalation risks over Ukraine; Russia has warned of retaliation against Britain for authorizing the use of Storm Shadow missiles inside Russian territory. Lieven cautions that British Prime Minister Burnham's domestic agenda could be destroyed if a stray British missile strikes a Russian civilian target, triggering a direct, retaliatory attack on British soil. (1)Peter Huessy argues that nuclear deterrence remains vital but requires continuous modernization of missiles, submarines, bombers, and command systems to match Russian and Chinese advancements. He explains that conventional defense fails against nuclear attacks in military war games. Huessy advocates for "counterforce" strategies—targeting an enemy's weapons and leadership rather than innocent civilian cities ("countervalue"). He also supports adding theater nuclear systems to deter Russia's "escalate to win" doctrine, which utilizes low-yield battlefield nuclear weapons to force a NATO stand-down. (2)Andrea Stricker discusses the concerning US-Saudi bilateral nuclear agreement, which triggers a 90-day congressional review. This pact opens the door to uranium enrichment on Saudi soil, setting a dangerous precedent that could spark a regional "domino effect." Additionally, Stricker highlights unresolved risks in Syria. Despite a US-brokered deal to turn over natural uranium metal, Syria's al-Qaeda-linked leadership intends to rebuild its civil nuclear program. She urges the US to enforce the complete removal of all nuclear material from Syria rather than giving extremists a pass. (3)Mary Anastasia O'Grady explains how the US is aggressively targeting Cuban regime elites by freezing assets and revoking visas. To facilitate the regime's collapse, O'Grady stresses that the US must present a viable post-collapse plan for "Day Zero" to avoid chaos, bloodshed, or oligarchic asset-grabbing. She advocates for securing property rights to encourage external investments and suggests using multilateral peacekeepers to maintain order. She supports a transitional board of Cuban-Americans and Americans to manage investments and prevent former military elites from seizing privatized state assets. (4)Conrad Black analyzes the impending trade dispute between Canada and the United States, labeled "the dumbest trade war ever." President Trump's comments describing Canada as a "51st state" and calling the Prime Minister "governor" have sparked deep resentment across Canada. Prime Minister Carney has ended negotiations and threatened retaliatory tariffs, securing tentative public support. However, the political opposition is demanding that Carney publish the underlying negotiation documents and recall parliament to build an all-party policy. Black argues this represents a moment of great risk but also a Churchillian opportunity. (5)Jane Rogoyska explores the history of Paris's Hôtel Lutetia, which served as a haven for fleeing Weimar intellectuals before becoming a Nazi military intelligence headquarters in 1940. Rogoyska traces waves of refugees fleeing Nazi persecution, including writers Heinrich Mann and Lion Feuchtwanger. These figures struggled to warn an indifferent Europe about the dangers of fascism. Despite personal tragedies and bureaucratic challenges, literary giants like James Joyce, Samuel Beckett, and Arthur Koestler frequented the hotel, carrying poison just in case they were captured. (6)Evan Ellis details how an unprecedented "super El Niño" is battering the Americas, causing floods in Peru and severe droughts affecting the Panama Canal. He outlines political developments, including Chile's struggle to finance aging copper mining infrastructure despite high global prices. In Venezuela, the "Rodrigato" gang leadership continues to slow-walk democratic reforms while benefiting from US-supervised oil sales. Colombia's new conservative president, de la Espriella, has prioritized security and pro-business reforms. Finally, in Panama, the US is expanding security efforts to counter persistent Chinese commercial and diplomatic encirclement. (7)

In March 2002, John Darwin paddled his canoe into the North Sea off Seaton Carew and disappeared. Searchers found wreckage, his family mourned, and his wife Anne claimed more than £500,000 in insurance and related payments. But Darwin had not drowned: he was alive, hiding in a bedsit next door to the family home while his two sons believed their father was dead.Five years later, he walked into a London police station claiming he had amnesia. The story collapsed when investigators found a photograph of John and Anne together in Panama, taken while they were planning a new life abroad.In 2008, both were convicted of fraud. John received six years and three months in prison, Anne six and a half years, after a deception that did not just target insurers, but shattered their own family.
Johnny announces his next one-week Latin American Insider seminar in Guatemala and El Salvador (November 14–20, 2026). Go to Expatplanb.com for signup details: The difference betweenkilowatts (power rate) and kilowatt-hours (energy used or stored), a common source of confusion for people considering solar systems. A Panama listener mixed up the terms (calling a 5 kW inverter “5 kWh” and a 40 kWh battery “40 kW”); the real issue was an underpowered inverter that couldn't handle three mini-split ACs at night. Advice for solar shoppers: Ask the salesperson to explain the difference between kilowatts and kilowatt-hours — if they can't, walk away. A modern 1-ton AC unit typically draws about 800–1,000 watts; look for a SEER rating of 20+ for much better efficiency than older units. Brazilian president Lula's Bolsa Família program is mentioned critically for tying cash payments to children's vaccinations. A Mexican national living in the U.S. was arrested in Colombia for defrauding U.S. COVID relief programs of more than $1 million. A new retirement-cost study shows a middle-class American needs roughlya $738,000 nestegg to retire comfortably in the U.S.; most Latin American countries require less than half that amount (Costa Rica and Uruguay are the most expensive in the region). Practical warnings about renting in Latin America: verbal promises from landlords often don't match the written Spanish contract, tenants are usually responsible for appliance repairs, and full security deposits are rarely returned. Strong recommendation to use WhatsApp for all landlord communications (for a permanent record) and to run any Spanish rental or purchase contract through Grok or ChatGPT before signing.

Our guest on this week's episode is Tucker Perkins, President and CEO of the Propane Education & Reseach Council (PERC). Propane has been used for decades as a consistent source of powering industrial trucks, such as the forklifts and other equipment used in distribution centers, manufacturing facilities, ports, transportation yards, and other places in the logistics world. DC Velocity Group Editorial Director David Maloney talks with our guest about the many uses for propane for powering equipment. They also discuss how propane's dominance as a power source is being challenged by new battery technologies.The consumer economy has been pretty resilient in the face of all the economic ups and downs of the past few years, but a new report shows that consumers are likely to bear the brunt of the supply chain disruptions. This report from London-based researcher BSI surveyed supply chain risk management professionals and found that more than a third of businesses are planning to increase prices to offset costs in the next six months. Senior Editor Victoria Kickham shares the details of the research. We've talked a lot in recent months about how ocean freight is being impacted by geopolitical forces and regional violence, that have forced changes in how containers move around the globe. But now we're seeing disruption from a completely different source, which is the extreme weather. Heat waves in Europe have caused the Rhine and Danube rivers to shallow up, meaning less cargo can be transported on the rivers. A drought in Panama has also lowered the depth of the canal. That means that cargo ships moving through the canal have to carry less so that they do not bottom out.

When a client goes quiet, most leaders assume everything is fine. Alisha Esmail would tell you silence is the clients exit ramp — because it's far easier to disappear quietly than to tell someone you're leaving. Alisha is the founder of Latch AI, an AI-native client retention engine, and her path to tech was anything but conventional: seven years in international development across Haiti, South Africa, Nepal, Jordan and Panama, followed by building an award-winning coffee company with direct supply chains across three countries and a micro-loan program supporting female-owned farms. In this episode, Alisha and Toni make the case that retention is not customer success's problem — it's a leadership problem that belongs to everyone. They get into what AI is genuinely doing to the retention landscape, why cutting CS teams has backfired badly for some companies, and the practical diagnostics any leader can run this week regardless of function. What we cover: Why every leader — engineering, product, sales, commercial — should care about retention How AI is reshaping the retention landscape, and "the war on clients" Bells and whistles vs boredom: when do customers actually leave a working product? No news is bad news — why silence is an exit ramp, not a sign of satisfaction The four-part retention framework: detect drift, score clients, run the safe play, capture the win Why "expansion ready" is the most missed category in most businesses Usage metrics: the data engineering leaders aren't capturing but should be and how it helps executive decision making Useful Links Connect with today's guest, Alisha Esmail, on LinkedIn at https://www.linkedin.com/in/alisha-esmail/ and find out more about Latch AI at https://www.yourlatch.com.

Send us Fan MailAaron, Trent, and Peaches sit down with Justus, a Security Forces airman out of Moody Air Force Base, to talk about one of the nastiest, coolest, and most under-discussed opportunities in the Air Force: jungle warfare training in Panama.Justus walks through how he ended up in the Air Force, why Security Forces was not what he expected, and how a career field that gets roasted constantly can still open doors if you are fit, positive, prepared, and willing to say yes when opportunities show up.He breaks down life in Security Forces, deploying to Prince Sultan Air Base, supporting the F-22 demo team, competing in Defender Challenge, and eventually getting to the 820th Base Defense Group at Moody — a unit built around defending and opening forward air bases in contested environments.Then the episode gets into the real reason he is here: Panama Jungle School.We talk tents, heat, humidity, malaria meds, mosquitoes, botflies, leaf cutter ants, black palm, trench foot, dysentery, wet boots, wet uniforms, and the harsh reality that the jungle itself is usually the hardest enemy. Justus explains the combat water survival assessment, jungle 5K, knot tests, survival phase, food and water procurement, firecraft, shelter building, rope systems, Z-pulley, one-rope bridge, jungle tactics, and the final Green Mile.The best part? He is not bitter, negative, or trying to scare anyone away. His message is simple: Security Forces has opportunities everywhere, but you have to be ready when they appear. Be in shape. Ask questions. Find the people doing hard things. Say yes.If you are in Security Forces, stop telling yourself the job is just gates and patrol cars. There is more out there.

This week we close out our Kilgallen series with the questions the first three were building toward: who killed her, and where did her JFK file go. Byron and Kelly run the suspect list one at a time, then walk through the string of connected deaths and the six places the missing file could have ended up.

"Imagine living in a land where the inhabitants sew angel wings on your every opposable joint, reward your every lie, rationalise your every impulse, and treat you not like a child they wish to discipline but as a pet they wish to wear like a precious jewel. There's an upsetting number of women out there for whom I have just described paradise. To me, as an average man, it sounds like hell." Brian, Hannah Wallen and Dr Randomercam on the reaction to Lindsey Clancy killing her three children — including the women insisting her husband must have done it, when she had sent him out on an errand so he'd be gone long enough. Also: Panama criminalising paternity fraud with two to five years and no statute of limitations, the campaign to turn Professor Jason Arday's suicide into a racism story, and the test for whether you're the extremist — ask when it's gone too far, and see if the answer is "never." "You can say I'm a socialist and YouTube will make you a megastar. Say I'm a nationalist and you'll be arrested for hate speech."

Stem cells are being used and marketed around the world—but what's actually allowed, what does the science say, and how can patients separate promising regenerative medicine from expensive hype?On this episode of Sugar Crush: The Rest of the Story, Dr. Rick Jacoby welcomes an unusual co-host - “Chat" - for a wide-ranging conversation about the evolving world of stem cells and regenerative medicine.Dr. Rick explores the differences between FDA Sections 351 and 361, minimally manipulated tissue, homologous use, Wharton's jelly, emerging MUSE cells, PRP, bone marrow-derived treatments, and other regenerative approaches. The conversation also goes global, comparing regulatory environments in the United States, Canada, Mexico, the United Kingdom, Japan, Panama, and beyond. They also tackle the booming world of stem-cell medical tourism: Why do patients travel internationally for treatment? Does a higher price mean a better therapy? What questions should consumers ask before choosing a clinic? And how can patients distinguish between what's being advertised and what has actually been demonstrated through research? Finally, Dr. Rick shares his own experiences with regenerative treatments and looks at the continuum from PRP and traditional approaches to newer cell-based therapies—while emphasizing the importance of understanding the evidence, regulatory status, potential costs, and available options before making a decision.

Johnny'supcoming week-long “Latin American Insider Seminar” will be in Guatemala and El Salvador (November 13–20, 2026). For details go to Expatplanb.com or click on: https://www.expatplanb.com/expat-insider-seminar-nov-2026/ Only a handful of Latin American countries (Chile, Colombia, Panama, Ecuador, Costa Rica) actively enforce mandatory yearly vehicle technical inspections; most others have the laws but rarely enforce them. Annual vehicle registration stickers (“marbetes”) are required everywhere and are usually obtained at banks after paying taxes and any outstanding tickets. Many expats avoid sticking the ugly yearly marbete on the windshield and simply keep it in the glove compartment; police rarely care as long as you can show proof of payment. Traffic tickets in Latin America are cheap compared with the U.S.; fighting them is possible but often wastes more time than the fine is worth. A listener email from Panama contrasts the high cost and entitlement culture of U.S. dating/weddings with the much lower cost and more appreciative attitude of a Latina spouse in Panama. One of the biggest attractions of living in Latin America (especially off the tourist trail) is a slower, less stressful, more manageable lifestyle. Johnny criticizes expats who constantly complain and try to force Latin culture to match their home-country expectations instead of adapting. Listeners praise Grok AI for giving more direct, less politically correct answers than ChatGPT. A warning about recent data breaches involving Ledger and Trezor hardware-wallet customer mailing lists, leading to phishing emails and fake official-looking letters. Be sure to pick up my newly updated, "2026 - LATIN AMERICAN HEALTHCARE REPORT": The new edition for 2026 (and beyond) is available now, including the latest "Stem Cell Clinic" info and data and my top picks for the best treatment centers for expats and gringos.

Today's West Coast Cookbook & Speakeasy Podcast for our especially special Daily Special, Metro Shrimp & Grits Thursdays is now available on the Spreaker Player!Starting off in the Bistro Cafe, the Trump controlled Kennedy Memorial Board basically told a Federal judge to pound sand and threatened to put Trump's name all over the Center in violation of the Court's prior order.Then, on the rest of the menu, Trump's top DHS lawyer has been accused of risking bloodshed by publishing a “Worst of the Worst” hit list of sitting federal judges; Pentagon officials want to fire the longtime publisher of Stars and Stripes before he can retire this fall; and, who can blame people for getting tired of winning when the national debt just surpassed a record $40 trillion.After the break, we move to the Chef's Table where Hong Kong conglomerate CK Hutchison wants more than $1.5 billion in damages from Panama after the country seized two canal ports caught in the crosshairs of US-China tensions; and, a Swiss tourist was sentenced to a year in jail for insulting Bali's sacred Day of Silence.All that and more, on West Coast Cookbook & Speakeasy with Chef de Cuisine Justice Putnam.Bon Appétit!The Netroots Radio Live PlayerKeep Your Resistance Radio Beaming 24/7/365!“Everyone in this good city enjoys the full right to pursue their own inclinations in all reasonable and, unreasonable ways.” — The Daily Picayune, New Orleans, March 5, 1851Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/west-coast-cookbook-speakeasy--2802999/support.
A.M. Edition for Aug. 20. Nearly six months into the war, President Trump is pledging a ‘crushing economic operation' to isolate Iran. WSJ's Georgi Kantchev explains why a push to get just one country, the United Arab Emirates, to go along with that won't be easy. Plus, packaged-food giants head to the lab as users of weight-loss drugs say no to once-beloved foods. And we'll look at why more AI developers are likely to follow Google's lead in buying up a defunct airline's old emails and payroll files. Luke Vargas hosts.

In A New World of Revolutions: Popular Imaginations and Movements Across the Americas (Princeton UP, 2026), Arturo Chang reconstructs the histories, politics, and legacies of the Age of Revolutions (c. 1770-1850) from the vantage point of popular movements in the Americas. Challenging narratives that center the nation-state, Chang emphasizes the hemispheric politics, practices, and cultural production that connected revolutionary movements from the United States to Argentina. He draws on marching songs, poems, pamphlets, manifestos, plays, proclamations, constitutions, and other archival objects to show that hemispheric imaginaries were critical to the development of postcolonial republicanism in the Americas. Chang shows that marginalized groups, especially Indigenous, Mestizo, and Pardo communities, contributed to and benefitted from narratives of American emancipation. Armed with hemispheric discourses, they were able to argue for such egalitarian reforms as the abolition of slavery, the elimination of colonial tribute, the protection of Indigenous lands, the end of the Spanish caste system, and the establishment of civic equality. Countering assumptions that actors in popular movements followed elite leaders or had little to say during moments of revolutionary change, Chang shows how each of these campaigns influenced republican principles in ways that reflected their own cultures and histories--and how each produced concrete interventions in the legal, social, and material realities of their communities. Chang links popular movements in New Spain (Mexico), the United States, New Granada (Colombia, Venezuela, Panama, and Ecuador), and the postcolonial Andes (Peru, Bolivia, and Argentina), arguing that, together, they constituted an American tradition of resistance against European rule.
