On this, our 345th Evolutionary Lens livestream, we discuss immigration, AI, and rawness. First: a new Harper's article chronicles the effects on local people of the mass migration across the Darién Gap in Panama between 2021 and 2025, and what has happened since the number of people coming up from Colombia has dropped to a trickle. The reporting on the ground is excellent—human and honest—while the political analysis is naïve at best. Then: what is it to be raw, how is it inherently human, and what is its relationship to grief, and to AI? *****Our sponsors:  Cozy Earth: Head to https://cozyearth.com and use code DARKHORSE for an exclusive 20% off on home and sleepwear.Puori: Clean and safe supplements, lab tested and guaranteed.

Episode 500! In Conversation with Val McDermid and Jo Sharp: This Door of the SeasA huge milestone — this is episode 500 of Quick Book Reviews! Thank you to everyone who's been listening since the very start (sadly the first few episodes were lost in a platform move years ago, but the memories remain).To celebrate, I'm joined by Val McDermid and Jo Sharp to talk about This Door of the Seas, their first book written together, and the latest in Polygon's Darkland Tales series. It tells the true and largely forgotten story of the Darien Scheme — Scotland's disastrous 17th-century attempt to found a trading colony in Panama, an event so significant it helped push the country into union with England, yet one neither of them were taught in school. We talk about how the idea was born on a very long drive down the A9, why they chose to tell the story entirely through letters (including real historical figure Dr James Wallace), and the moment Val discovered — almost as an aside — that there was a murder in the story she hadn't been told about. Jo also describes the genuinely moving experience of holding one of the original 1698 letters in the National Library of Scotland, and we talk about what it's actually like to co-write a book with your spouse.Plus: the Darien colonists' extraordinary questions from the era's leading scientists (yes, including one about an animal that breathes through its navel), what Val and Jo are both reading right now, and their verdict on the classic Quick Book Reviews question — the biscuit that powered the words.Featured book:This Door of the Seas, Val McDermid and Jo SharpThis episode is available as video on Apple Podcasts — watch it here.Get in touch - links:Quick Book Reviews Facebook Group | Instagram | quickbookreviews@outlook.comQuick Book Reviews: author interviews and book reviews with no spoilers.

Eine halbe Million Umsatz, ein richtig erfolgreicher Launch und trotzdem die Frage: Ist das eigentlich der Erfolg, den ich wirklich will? In dieser Folge nehmen wir euch mit auf unsere ganz unterschiedlichen Wege: Warum Anna nach Panama gegangen ist, obwohl sie eigentlich auf einem ziemlich klassischen Karriereweg war, warum Ramona sich ein Leben in der Selbstständigkeit früher überhaupt nicht vorstellen konnte und welche vermeintlichen Erfolge uns irgendwann gezeigt haben, dass wir etwas verändern wollen. Es geht um Umwege, Entscheidungen, Selbstführung, Loslassen und die Frage, was Erfolg eigentlich für dich bedeutet, wenn du einmal alles weglässt, was im Außen danach aussieht. Eine Folge über Business und das Leben dahinter und darüber, warum es am Ende vielleicht viel weniger darum geht, wie Erfolg aussehen sollte, sondern darum, wie er sich für dich anfühlt. **Hier findest du mehr über Ramona:** [Website](https://ramonading.de) [Instagram](https://www.instagram.com/ramonadingde/) **Hier findest du mehr über Anna:** [Website](https://anna-libner.de) [Instagram](https://www.instagram.com/anna.libner/) [Impressum](https://anna-libner.de/impressum/)

When natural disasters strike, marginalized communities are often left behind without access to essential recovery resources or digital infrastructure. In her groundbreaking book Climate and Code: Building a Digital and Connected Climate-Resilient Future, Georgetown University Law Center professor and National Geographic Explorer Monica Sanders explores how law, community wisdom, and technology can bridge this gap to build disaster equity. Monica Sanders, founder of The Undivide Project, joins us for an insightful conversation on redefining resilience from the ground up. Drawing from her personal experience surviving Hurricane Katrina to examining digital redlining and community-led initiatives in Panama and Baltimore, Monica highlights why digital access is a critical lifeline during extreme weather events. Discover how centering local knowledge and co-creating digital solutions can empower communities to withstand environmental crises and shape a more resilient future. COMPLETE BLOG & TRANSCRIPT: https://caremorebebetter.com/climate-and-code-bridging-the-digital-divide-in-disaster-recovery-with-monica-sanders/ About Guest: Monica C. Sanders, JD, LL.M., is a law professor, author, journalist, and social entrepreneur working at the intersection of climate resilience, technology, and justice. A New Orleans native whose work was shaped by Hurricane Katrina, she founded The Undivide Project to help communities use digital infrastructure and data to strengthen disaster resilience, and Bonne Terre Labs to build decision-intelligence tools for more responsible infrastructure investment. Sanders teaches at Georgetown University Law Center, is a National Geographic Explorer and Forbes Senior Contributor, and previously held senior disaster, homeland security, and humanitarian roles in government and at the American Red Cross. Her new book, Climate and Code, explores how law and technology can help build a more resilient and equitable future.

Donald Trump et Delcy Rodriguez se sont entretenus hier (22 septembre 2026), à New York, en marge de l'Assemblée générale des Nations unies. Première rencontre entre les deux présidents depuis la capture de Nicolas Maduro par les États-Unis, en janvier 2026, pour sceller la réconciliation entre les États-Unis et le Venezuela et la fin de 30 ans de disputes. Au même moment, à des milliers de kilomètres de New York, Maria Corina Machado, cheffe de l'opposition vénézuélienne, essayait - une nouvelle fois - de revenir dans son pays. Mais elle a encore échoué. Les explications de Marine de La Moissonnière. Enquête Forbidden Stories : le Mexique au cœur du dispositif étasunien Depuis le début de la semaine, nous vous dévoilons des volets de l'enquête menée par Forbidden Stories à laquelle RFI a participé. Une enquête intitulée : « The Deportation Project – Révélations sur les expulsions de masse de l'administration Trump ». Aujourd'hui, focus sur le Mexique. Ce pays voisin des États-Unis est celui qui reçoit le plus grand nombre de migrants expulsés vers des pays tiers : environ 20 000 sur les plus de 25 000 renvoyés entre janvier 2025, date du retour de Donald Trump au pouvoir, et août 2026. Comme l'explique Achim Lippold, ce sont les Cubains qui forment le groupe le plus important parmi ces expulsés.

As a Peace Corps volunteer with an engineering degree from MIT, Doug Ricket, Founder and CEO, PayJoy, a leading financial services provider for underserved consumers across emerging markets, learned first-hand what it means to build trust in underserved communities. The experience in West Africa sparked a long-held interest that eventually put Doug's engineering and tech background to work to make a true financial impact and build a mission-driven business for underserved consumers, 20 million of them to date across 9 countries (Mexico, Brazil, Indonesia, South Africa, Ecuador, Peru, Panama, Colombia, and the Philippines) Listen as Doug shares his founder journey with Brett King and explains why he left a comfortable path in tech to help first-time borrowers build credit and access broader financial services and payments. Smartphones have become essential economic infrastructure. A smartphone can be a customer’s first productive financial asset and first step into formal financial access, creating financial opportunity for consumers otherwise locked out of traditional credit and payments infrastructure. 40% of PayJoy’s customers are new to credit; 37% are first-time smartphone users. How does PayJoy build a credit profile for someone who’s never had access to credit before? What sets their approach apart from traditional lenders? Listen to find out.

In this episode of the Independent Dealer Podcast, Jeff Watson and Luke Godwin sit down with Gill Florentino, Principle Owner of Mi Amigo Motors — a Dominican Republic native who watched his brother get murdered as a child, came to the United States on an athletic scholarship, pitched against Hideki Matsui in the Tokyo Dome, spent nearly a decade chasing a pro baseball career across Japan, Mexico, and Panama, recovered from two arm surgeries and a car accident that dislocated his leg, built a career at JP Morgan Chase managing a $100 billion portfolio, and eventually made his way into buy here pay here in 2013.Today, Gill Florentino runs multiple businesses, including a dealership operation and 14 Seasons Cigar Company, has written a book that sold over 10,000 copies in its first few months, and is widely regarded as one of the most process-driven, culture-obsessed operators in the independent dealer space.What You'll Learn:Why Gill refuses to interview a candidate who shows up one minute late — and how he attracts the kind of people who would never do that in the first place, including a Subway sandwich artist in Lubbock making $9 an hour who became one of his best hiresThe five-candidate interview process where every member of the organization spends 15 minutes individually with each applicant — and why the million-dollar question Gill asks reveals more about character than any resume ever willWhy the organization is always more important than any single person in it — and what the rotten apple in a basket of good ones has to do with why one bad hire can destroy a culture faster than you can fix itHow Gill runs what he calls a timeless organization — always hiring, never comfortable, always recruiting at the grocery store, the restaurant, and the subway — even when there are no open seatsWhy Gill does not believe in goals — only processes — and how the same math that got him a Nintendo as a kid is the exact framework he uses to build repeatable sales and collections performance across multiple businessesHow cross-training every position at JP Morgan Chase taught him that the best person for a role is often already inside the organization — and why that principle drives how he builds teams across every business he ownsWhy nobody in his organization will ever be more important than the organization itself — not even Gill — and what that standard looks like when you enforce it from the first phone call of the interview processIf you are an independent dealer who has ever struggled to find good people, keep good people, or build a culture that runs without you — Gill's story is the most complete answer to all three questions in one conversation.Support the businesses that support the podcast:Buckeye Risk Services - Reinsurance and wealth strategies for independent dealers.https://theindependentdealer.com/buckeyeBlytz - BHPH payment processing with fast funding and text-to-pay.Ituran GPS - Asset protection and customer management for BHPH and retail dealers.https://theindependentdealer.com/ituranFollow & Connect: Website: www.theindependentdealer.com Facebook Group: @independentautogroup Luke Godwin: @lukegodwin Jeff Watson: /sendtojeffwLike, subscribe, and share this with a dealer who needs to hear it.

Andrea Casanova was born in Venezuela, left after her brother was kidnapped, and moved through the Dominican Republic, Panama and Brazil before landing in the US for college. On a student visa she was legally capped at $150 a month, so she hustled: growing League of Legends accounts, walking dogs, shooting photos for bars. She now runs an agency, speaks on creator economy tech, and is building Ginger, a tool that helps creators handle their inbound brand deals.In this episode, Andrea is open in a way most people aren't about money and the discomfort that comes with it. She started her agency with one client, a psychiatrist who was also a witch, at $400 a month, and inside two years was billing $70,000 a month. We cover why she thinks 67% of brand emails go unanswered and what that costs a mid-tier creator, why she says the missing skill is business etiquette rather than engagement rate, and her split between brand building and cash building as a way to decide what to work on. Plus, what she had to say no to in order to ship Ginger, and what she'd tell a first-time creator walking into Cannes with nothing to offer.A candid conversation about money, judgement and focus from someone who has built from almost nothing more than once.Topics covered: money mindset and pricing guilt · building an agency from scratch · unanswered brand deal emails · business etiquette for creators · brand building vs cash building · decision making frameworks · becoming a non-technical tech founder · saying no

ADUs are becoming an increasingly important part of the conversation around housing, rental income, multigenerational living, and real estate development. In this episode of the Massive Passive Cashflow Podcast, Gary Wilson sits down with Peter Brown to explore how pre-panelized construction can make smaller residential projects more adaptable and scalable—and how real estate agents can use these opportunities to create additional value for homeowners, investors, and developers. Peter shares his nearly 20 years of real estate experience and explains the thinking behind Zara Homes' pre-panelized construction methodology. The discussion covers ADUs, affordable housing, rental income, construction efficiency, property development, and opportunities in Florida, Texas, California, and Panama. In This Episode How ADUs can provide additional living space or rental opportunities What makes pre-panelized construction different from traditional construction How construction technology can address difficult-access properties ADU opportunities for homeowners, investors, and developers Multigenerational housing and additional rental income Short-term and long-term rental applications Why zoning, infrastructure, and permitting matter How real estate agents can introduce ADU opportunities to their clients The potential for scalable construction and distribution through the real estate community   Attention Investors and Agents:   Are you ready to scale your real estate business and connect with like-minded professionals?

Seth discusses what the U.S. war with Iran has to do with an “Amerca First” doctrine. He reflects on the 25th Anniversary of the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks on the United States last week and the ongoing threat posed by Iran, citing its history of terrorism and nuclear ambitions. He argues that the US should not be hesitant to take action against Iran, pointing out that the country has been at war with the U.S. for 47 years, and that the US has successfully liberated countries like Kuwait and Panama. Seth’s recommendations for reading ahead of this Constitution Day. We’re joined by Don Spini from Sun Valley Wealth. California Governor Gavin Newsom says that he will not run for the Democratic nomination for President of the United States in 2028 if former Vice President Kamala Harris decides to run once again.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Anne Michelle Wand did not start real estate investing with a large pile of cash. She borrowed the down payment on her first home, found a way to split the land, and turned that one purchase into the start of a much larger portfolio. Anne Michelle first became interested in real estate while she was a single mom and self employed. She saw property as a way to create her own retirement account. Her first major move was buying a home on one acre outside Boulder, Colorado. After learning the land could be annexed into the city and divided, she worked with 13 neighbors to make it happen. Years later, her portfolio included a duplex, a condo, a 44 unit apartment building, her own home, and other rentals. When the 2008 downturn changed things, she decided to restructure and move to Panama rather than wait for everything to recover in the United States. Once in Bocas del Toro, she saw another opportunity. There were only a few real estate companies in the area and none were global, so she opened a United Country franchise. She ran the business for about 10 years and sold it in 2021. Anne Michelle also talks about what real estate looks like in Panama, including titled property, rights of possession, and the role attorneys play in closing deals. Key topics and takeaways: Why Anne Michelle saw real estate as her retirement account How she used annexation and lot division on her first Boulder property How one property helped fund two more down payments Why the 2008 downturn helped lead her to Panama What she had to learn about titled property and rights of possession Why she still takes on projects after retiring Guest information: Anne Michelle Wand is a longtime real estate investor who built a portfolio in the United States before moving to Bocas del Toro, Panama. She later opened and sold a United Country real estate franchise and continued with small development projects. To connect with Anne Michelle, search for AnneMichelle Wand on LinkedIn.

Many conversations about development for focus on aid: how much, from whom, and for how long. But aid has never been more than a small part of what pays for a country's development, and in 2025 it fell by 23.1%. The need to rethink our attitude to development has inspired the Future of Development Cooperation Coalition (FDCC). In this week's episode, Alexia Latortue and Radha Rajkotia of FDCC talk to Tim Phillips about its first report,. The report assesses the development challenges of LMICs using a balance sheet approach, with assets on one side and liabilities on the other. Tax revenue, remittances, pension and sovereign wealth funds, trade, natural resources and the skills of the population sit on the asset side. Unsustainable debt, illicit financial flows, poor credit ratings, weak institutions, climate exposure and conflict sit on the other.The idea? Each country focuses on the policies to develop their most important assets, and minimise their most problematic liabilities. They argue that governments and donors alike should stop thinking of developing countries as recipients of aid, and start thinking of them as partners in economic development.The research behind this episode:Future of Development Cooperation Coalition. 2026. "The Development Balance Sheet: Rethinking Development Cooperation from the Ground Up." Published 20 May 2026. Research team: Radha Rajkotia, John Norris and Mma Amara Ekeruche.To cite this episode:Phillips, Tim, Alexia Latortue, and Radha Rajkotia. 2026. "Rethinking development cooperation: The case for a 'balance sheet' approach." VoxDev Talks (podcast). About the guestsAlexia Latortue is Head of Secretariat of the Future of Development Cooperation Coalition and a Distinguished Non-Resident Fellow at the Center for Global Development. She served as Assistant Secretary for International Trade and Development at the US Treasury, where she led work on reforming the multilateral development banks and on using public finance to pull private capital into emerging markets. She was previously Deputy CEO and Managing Director for Corporate Strategy at the Millennium Challenge Corporation, sat on the Executive Committee of the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development, and spent ten years at the World Bank working on financial inclusion, ending as Deputy CEO of CGAP.Radha Rajkotia is Director of Research at the Future of Development Cooperation Coalition and lead researcher on this report. She was Chief Executive Officer of Building Markets and, before that, Chief Research and Policy Officer at Innovations for Poverty Action, running its strategy across 22 countries. She spent eleven years leading the economic recovery and development unit at the International Rescue Committee, on work spanning cash-based relief and job creation in conflict settings. She holds a PhD in Refugee Studies from the University of Sussex, is a Senior Policy Fellow at the Henry Leir Institute at Tufts University, and teaches at Georgetown.Research cited in this episodeThe balance sheet approach. The report sets out assets and liabilities but argues that neither is a checklist. Some entries are country-specific, such as natural resource endowments or exposure to climate risk. Others are structural, such as a sovereign credit rating, which constrains or enables progress regardless of what a government does at home. The point of the exercise is situational awareness before prioritisation, not a universal to-do list.The 30 national development strategies. The research team reviewed the current development strategies of 30 countries across Africa, Asia and Latin America. All 30 prioritise economic transformation and human capital. Governance appears as a stand-alone pillar in two-thirds of them. Inequality is a defining element in almost every Latin American strategy and largely absent as an explicit constraint in Africa and Asia. Most countries frame technology as digital economy rather than as AI governance or chip access, which the report reads as a widening sophistication gap.Nigeria and Ethiopia. The report's worked comparison. Ethiopia attracts more than three times Nigeria's foreign direct investment despite being roughly 100 million people smaller. Nigeria has strong tax revenues, considerable pension fund assets, a heavy debt servicing burden and large losses to illicit financial flows. Ethiopia has a narrow tax base and weak compliance, suffers far less from illicit flows, carries a lighter debt service burden and is nonetheless in debt distress.Debt as both asset and liability. Low-income countries spend 18% of government revenue on average servicing foreign debt. Angola, Laos, Bhutan, Pakistan, Egypt, Sudan, the Bahamas, Tunisia, Zambia, Benin and Senegal each spent more than 30% of tax revenues on debt servicing in 2024. As of 2026, 27 countries face a high risk of debt distress and nine are already in it, the majority of them in Africa. Latortue argues that the problem is the price, tenor and currency of debt rather than debt itself, and that restructuring machinery built around the Paris Club has not kept up with a creditor base that now includes China, Gulf states and a large body of commercial lenders.Credit ratings. Only eight countries across Latin America and Africa hold an investment-grade rating from Moody's, Fitch or S&P. They are Chile, Mexico, Panama, Paraguay, Peru, Uruguay, Botswana and Mauritius. A UNDP analysis cited in the report estimates that flawed ratings have cost African countries as much as $74.5 billion in excess interest and foregone investment, more than the continent's entire net receipt of official development assistance. The African Union is launching its own credit rating agency in 2026.South-South trade. UNCTAD figures in the report put South-South merchandise exports at about $0.5 trillion in 1995 and $6.8 trillion in 2025. Some 57% of developing-country exports now go to other developing markets. Rajkotia points to the Africa Continental Free Trade Area and to Mercosur as existing infrastructure that could support production integration rather than trade agreements alone.Demographics. Africa's working-age population is expected to double by 2050, which the report treats as an asset conditional on policy. By 2050 only 26% of the world's population is projected to live in Europe, North America and China, falling to 18% by 2100.Domestic capital in Africa. Latortue cites more than $4 trillion of assets held across the African continent, a figure that combines central bank reserves, commercial bank assets, institutional investors, sovereign wealth funds, pensions and insurance. Her argument is that moving even a small share of it into productive investment would outweigh anything aid can now do. The report notes that Ghana mandated 5% of its pension fund for venture capital in 2025 and that Mexico legislated for an allowance of up to 30%.Conflict. The one item Latortue places firmly on one side of the ledger. She counts at least 60 live conflicts worldwide. The Peace Research Institute Oslo recorded more conflicts in 2024 than at any point since the Second World War, and more than half of all conflict-affected states now face at least two separate internal conflicts. Development work has a role in keeping the real economy going, she says, but the solutions are political.More VoxDev Talks episodesThe end of aid dependency. W.

Le canal de Panama va une nouvelle fois réduire son trafic à partir d'octobre, en raison du manque d'eau provoqué par le phénomène climatique El Niño. Cette restriction intervient alors que cette voie maritime stratégique fonctionne presque à pleine capacité, notamment en raison des perturbations au Moyen-Orient. Avec des conséquences économiques qui peuvent aller jusqu'au prix des marchandises. C'est un nouveau séisme dans le transport maritime mondial. La direction du canal de Panama a annoncé une nouvelle réduction de son trafic à partir d'octobre. La voie qui relie l'océan Atlantique au Pacifique ne pourra accueillir qu'à peine 30 navires par jour. En cause : le phénomène climatique El Niño et le manque d'eau nécessaire au fonctionnement du canal. Longue de 80 kilomètres, cette voie maritime permet aux navires de relier l'Atlantique au Pacifique sans contourner l'Amérique du Sud. Chaque année, environ 5 % du commerce maritime mondial y transite, ce qui représente des centaines de milliards de dollars. En 2024, ce sont ainsi 444 milliards de dollars de marchandises qui sont passés par le canal. Son importance est encore plus visible depuis le début de la crise au Moyen-Orient. Le conflit et les perturbations autour du détroit d'Ormuz et du canal de Suez poussent certains pays asiatiques à s'approvisionner davantage aux États-Unis, et donc à faire passer davantage de navires par le canal de Panama. Ces derniers mois, il fonctionnait presque à sa capacité maximale, avec jusqu'à 40 passages quotidiens. Mais une dizaine de passages en moins par jour à partir d'octobre, c'est considérable pour une voie par laquelle transitent des centaines de milliards de dollars de marchandises. À lire aussi«Voilà où on en est, les bateaux sont à quai»: du Pérou au Guatemala, El Niño fait déjà des dégâts El Niño prive le canal de Panama de l'eau nécessaire à son fonctionnement Cette hausse du trafic intervient au moment même où le canal est confronté à un problème de taille : il n'y a pas assez d'eau pour faire passer tous les navires. Le canal fonctionne grâce à l'eau de pluie, stockée dans deux grands lacs artificiels. Entre mai et août, les apports d'eau dans le bassin ont été inférieurs de 44 % à la normale. Résultat : 36 passages quotidiens en août, 34 depuis le début du mois de septembre, puis 32 à partir de la mi-septembre et moins de 30 en moyenne à partir d'octobre. Les conséquences sont très concrètes pour les armateurs. Moins de créneaux disponibles signifie davantage d'attente et surtout des passages plus chers. Fin août, un méthanier a ainsi payé 5,3 millions de dollars pour obtenir un passage prioritaire, un record. À lire aussiCanicule: pourquoi les vagues de chaleur menacent désormais l'industrie européenne Des routes plus longues et des coûts de transport plus élevés Face à cette situation, certains armateurs boudent le canal, tout simplement en contournant l'Amérique du Sud. D'autres font transiter leurs marchandises par le rail, notamment au Mexique. Mais dans tous les cas, le transport est plus long et plus coûteux. Avec, potentiellement, un impact jusqu'au consommateur. Le coût du transport peut finir par se répercuter sur le prix des marchandises. Certains pays sont particulièrement exposés. Un quart du commerce extérieur de l'Équateur passe par le canal de Panama, contre 22 % pour le Chili et le Pérou. Si l'on dézoome, El Niño n'a donc pas seulement un impact sur le canal de Panama, mais potentiellement sur toute l'économie mondiale. Le phénomène modifie les températures, les vents et les précipitations à travers le monde, et l'épisode actuel pourrait être particulièrement intense. Pour le canal de Panama, cela se traduit très concrètement par moins d'eau, donc moins de bateaux. Et pour le commerce mondial, par des routes plus longues, des coûts plus élevés et, potentiellement, des prix qui augmentent. Une nouvelle illustration, finalement, d'une économie mondiale de plus en plus dépendante d'un climat qui, lui, devient de moins en moins prévisible.

More than six months into the war with Iran, the Strait of Hormuz crisis continues to cause turmoil in the Gulf region and global energy markets with no apparent end in sight.  Tanker traffic through the strait has collapsed to a fraction of its pre-war baseline, and the fallout is spreading. Brent crude broke $100 a barrel for the first time since July, and US diesel prices have climbed above $6 a gallon for the first time in history. The US Navy blockade has all but shut down Iranian oil exports, but the conflict is no longer confined to Iran and the strait. Last week, Saudi Arabia's East-West pipeline was struck and could stay offline for weeks. Iran-aligned Houthi forces seized Yemen's Red Sea coastline. And a Panama-flagged tanker carrying Iraqi fuel oil caught fire in the crossfire—a sign that oil flows well beyond Iran's borders are now at risk. Meanwhile, President Trump continues to predict the war will end shortly after the US midterms—even as his own administration reportedly warns privately that Iran can hold out longer than that.  So, with the conflict spreading, has this become a multi-front regional war? How much further could oil and diesel prices climb? And how does this conflict unwind and actually end? On today's show, Jason Bordoff speaks with three scholars at the Center on Global Energy Policy: Richard Nephew, Daniel Sternoff, and Karen Young. Together, they discuss the widening war, its impacts on global energy markets, and Middle East geopolitics.

Clay explains his lifestyle-first approach—using contractors instead of employees, staying remote, and focusing on relationship-building—plus his process for quickly placing workers and guiding clients on relocation logistics and housing. He aims to expand into recruiting nurses and emphasizes thinking differently, financial stability, personal branding, and long-term relationships.00:00 Meet Clay Martin01:43 Peace Corps to Recruiting03:33 Finding the Puerto Rico Niche06:25 Lifestyle First Business Model08:21 Why Hire From Puerto Rico11:02 Time Management as Solopreneur15:29 Mindset for Starting Over19:28 Personal Brand and Relationships24:05 Where to Find ClayThanks for listening, and Please Share this Episode with someone.

Poetins oorlogslogica | Trump verzwakt Westen | Territoriale machtspolitiek Poetin verlengt zijn oorlog in Oekraïne via horizontale escalatie en nieuwe mobilisatie, terwijl de Russische economie verder wordt uitgehold. Arend Jan Boekestijn en Rob de Wijk schetsen hoe in Rusland de militaire sector de civiele industrie verdringt, sociale uitkeringen worden gekort en de arbeidsmarkt structureel beschadigd raakt. De combinatie van hoge slachtoffers, repressie en economische achteruitgang maakt grootschalige mobilisatie politiek explosief, maar volgens hen onvermijdelijk. Trump ondermijnt tegelijk de samenhang van het Westen door sanctiepolitiek, handelsoorlogen en openlijke voorkeur voor Poetin. De Wijk wijst op de grote machtsruimte van de Amerikaanse president in het buitenlandbeleid, ook wanneer het Congres Democratisch controleert via budgetrecht. Die Trump-factor versterkt Poetins aanhoudende strijd, omdat het Westen verdeelder optreedt en Oekraïne voortdurend steun moet veiligstellen. Ten slotte plaatsen Boekestijn en De Wijk de annexatie van Oekraïense gebieden en Trumps claims op Panama, Canada en Groenland in een bredere terugkeer naar territoriale invloedssferen. Globalisering maakte koloniale bezetting lang overbodig, maar de strijd om grondstoffen, zeemachten en regionale dominantie in onder meer de Zuid-Chinese Zee keert terug. Zo ontvouwt zich een wereldorde waarin grenzen minder heilig zijn en geopolitieke macht weer direct aan grondgebied wordt gekoppeld, met alle risico’s van dien voor Europa. [Samenvatting geschreven door AI en gecontroleerd door mens] Over de Podcast Arend Jan Boekestijn en Rob de Wijk gaan onder leiding van Hugo Reitsma op zoek naar de nieuwe wereldorde. Wat betekenen oorlog, machtspolitiek en economische verschuivingen voor Europa en Nederland? In elke aflevering duiken zij in de geopolitieke actualiteit.

Rum has long suffered from an image problem in this country, as too many drinkers still associate the category with sugary spiced bottles and sticky frozen drinks. But if tequila could go from a spirit taken by the shot to one sipped and studied, then why can't rum do the same? To help us make sense of where the category is headed, we are joined this week by actor and co-founder of Palm Republic Rum, Eric Winter. So tune in as he shares how a single pour of aged rum nearly twenty years ago set him down this path, and what went into blending Jamaican funk with rums from Panama and the US Virgin Islands.

We are happy to welcome Metal Walt from Metal Mayhen ROC to talk about one of his first concert experiences from his teenage years - seeing David Lee Roth on the Eat Em And Smile Tour in 1986. Walt, like most kids from the MTV generation, saw Dave hamming it up in Van Halen videos like Panama and Hot For Teacher. Then Dave capitalized on that fame and decided to do a solo album, complete with fun MTV videos. So when Dave and his band came to New Jersey in October of 1986, Walt had to be there. We discuss with Walt where he fell on the David Lee Roth/Van Halen split in 1986, a few years later and now as everyone was forced to choose sides. He felt opening band Cinderella's style and image weren't equivalent to their musical style but that they were a good band. And he enjoyed the noodling of Billy Sheehan (bass) and Steve Vai (guitar) before DLR himself made his presence known and then the night was really On Fire! Dave did more VH1 to 1984 cuts than Van Halen did on the 5150 Tour and seemed to have a lot of fun doing it. He confirmed that he was the showman that Walt and the rest of us had seen on MTV. He even celebrated his 32nd birthday at the end of the set (I bet he didn't go to be that night, if you need proof listen to First Concert Memories 15 with Mick Wall who stayed up all night with him in 1988). It not only prompted Walt to see Dave 20+ times over the years solo and with the reunited Van Halen but to dress up like Dave on his famous album cover for Halloween three weeks later. Who would do that? The kind of rock fan we want on First Concert Memories - that's who!!

CAPTION 1916 PERUVIAN AMAZONStrategic Insecurity Sweeps Latin AmericaEvan Ellis observes Latin America faces complex governance crises, organized crime, and rising Chinese influence, as seen in Peru under President Keiko Fujimori, who struggles to tackle illicit logging, mining, and urban gang warfare. In Nicaragua, Daniel Ortega's regime passed reforms extending presidential terms while banning political opposition, further consolidating a non-transparent dictatorship backed by China and Russia. Concurrently, the US has entered a massive, highly risky oil deal in Venezuela with Chevron and the corrupt Rodríguez regime. Finally, Costa Rica battles unprecedented drug-related homicide surges, while Panama continues vital canal defense exercises. (7)

CAPTION: 1905 RUSSO-JAPANESE WAR, PORT ARTHURCONTENTS OF THE JOHN BATCHELOR SHOW, 9-3-2026.Chinese Warships Provoke Japanese DefensesJames Fanell reports Chinese naval operations have expanded significantly closer to Japan's home islands, transiting critical straits near Kyushu to collect intelligence and apply psychological pressure. This aggressive encroachment occurs as Japan targets a record-high defense budget in response to the massive expansion of the Chinese Navy, now the largest globally. Additionally, China has secured control of the South China Sea and is surrounding Taiwan, recently executing oceanographic surveys east of the island to prepare for a potential invasion. Despite these escalating provocations, the US Navy faces severe resource constraints, having decreased to under 300 ships. (1)Tariff Dispute Shatters Canadian TrustMary Anastasia O'Grady examines the full-blown trade war that has erupted between the United States and Canadadue to Donald Trump's mercantilist policies and retaliatory tariffs. Though the Trump administration blames Canada for fentanyl and trade imbalances, the US actually maintains a trade surplus in manufactured goods once natural resource imports like oil are excluded. Canada is resource-rich, supplying crucial assets like hydroelectricity-powered aluminum. Decades of mutual trust have been shattered, leading Canadians to diversify their trade routes. Additionally, Canada faces pressure to increase its defense spending rather than acting as a security free rider. (2)Redefining Value In Higher EducationPaul Glastris presents the Washington Monthly's college rankings, which evaluate higher education institutions based on social mobility, civic engagement, and financial value, offering an alternative to traditional prestige-driven lists. Rather than prioritizing wealth and exclusivity, these metrics highlight schools that recruit and graduate modest-means students with minimal debt. Berea College, which charges zero tuition, and the University of West Alabama, which excels in training in-demand rural teachers, represent top-performing schools that are highly valuable to the 95% of average students. Glastris suggests a federal network system to cover educational costs in exchange for low-tuition policies. (3)Escalating Hybrid Warfare In EuropeAnatol Lieven reports tensions flaring as rumors of discrete diplomatic missions and allegations of Russian hybrid warfare circulate in Europe. The Wall Street Journal reported a secret CIA meeting in Moscow to warn against attacking NATO, while Germany accused Russia of directing an armed drone at Leipzig airport. British cruise missiles striking Russian soil risk triggering severe Russian retaliation, a dangerous escalation that Cold War standards would have deemed insane. Domestically, newly appointed Prime Minister Burnham remains politically constrained, caught between calls for increased military spending and a split public, complicating Britain's international standing. (4)Solar Dynamics Captured By PUNCHCraig DeForest and David Livingston: DeForest details NASA's PUNCH mission, which provides continuous, global 3D imaging of the young solar wind, mapping the hypersonic plasma sweeping across our solar neighborhood. By utilizing four synchronized, deeply baffled satellites, the mission observes extremely faint solar material against the sun's glare, creating artificial eclipses. PUNCH has successfully identified the outer boundary of the solar corona and drastically improved space weather forecasts tenfold, allowing better preparation for power-grid-disrupting geomagnetic storms. With an unlimited budget, DeForest advocates launching a polar-orbiting spacecraft to study the sun's unexplored poles and resolve key magnetic field mysteries. (5)America Shaped By Two ShipsDavid S. Reynolds argues America's cultural identity and historical divisions were forged by two symbolic ships: the Mayflower carrying Puritans seeking religious freedom in 1620, and the White Lion bringing the first enslaved Africans to Virginia in 1619. These events established distinct regional societies: the individualistic, anti-slavery North and the hierarchical, Cavalier-dominated South. Though New England grappled with religious intolerance, figureheads like Samuel Sewall pioneered early abolitionist arguments, while African-born Onesimus saved lives with smallpox inoculation. These foundational differences ultimately evolved into the ideological conflicts of the 19th-century American Civil War.

In Nicaragua, Daniel Ortega's regime passed reforms extending presidential terms while banning political opposition, further consolidating a non-transparent dictatorship backed by China and Russia.
