In this episode of the Mountain Collective Podcast, Hannah Rinne shares her philosophy on “life maxing” — living life to the fullest while balancing meaningful work, travel, relationships, creativity, and personal growth. She discusses why chasing perfect optimization can sometimes reduce happiness and explains how she measures success through inspiration, experiences, and overall life satisfaction rather than constant tracking.The conversation explores work-life balance, social media's role in modern business, the value of real-world experiences, and the growing challenge of decision-making in a world filled with endless options. Hannah also dives into the concept of the “Paradox of Choice,” explaining why having too many choices can lead to stress and poorer decisions.Whether you're a creative entrepreneur, freelancer, or someone seeking a more intentional life, this episode offers practical insights on finding balance, making confident decisions, embracing experiences, and creating a life that feels both successful and fulfilling.__ https://www.instagram.com/hannahrinnhttps://www.instagram.com/conversationclubb

People are remarkably bad at recognizing when others are already trying to connect. Many men believe women are difficult to understand, while many women believe men don't listen - yet both are usually seeking the same things: connection, trust, desire, acceptance, and playfulness. The real breakthrough in dating, attraction, romance, and relationships isn't becoming more impressive. It's becoming more curious, present, emotionally intelligent, and self-respecting.

This week on Tapod, we catch up with Natalie Badaway – or ‘Nat Bad' as we like to call her (thanks Denise Pereira, for the nickname). Nat is busy as Talent Acquisition Specialist at Andromeda (a really cool robotics company) and co-organiser at the Melbourne Talent Meet-Up. We are all very aware of the pressure and anxiety our industry has been under over the last 18 months. With the rise of AI, war in Europe and the Middle East, global tariffs, increased inflation and interest rates all affecting hiring levels and redundancies across our sector, we are all feeling it. And this is why Community is so important. Nat talks us through the how and why. If you do not attend 'meet-ups' in your city, it's about time you bloody did! No-one understands our industry like our community, and if you need support, we are all here for you.Thanks to Paradox for partnering with us for this episode.

Sieh an, sieh an, für diese Ausgabe ist ihr liebstes Radioliteraturmagzins auf Radio Z mal wieder Ausgeflogen: In Urlaubsvertretung duften Eisi und Meisi im Juni das altehrwürdige Live-Literaturformat “Gostner Suppkultur" im Gostner Hoftheater kapern. Und Kapern sind ein exzellentes Stichwort zu unserem diesmaligen Thema: Suppe. Unsere beiden Radiopotagers Eisi und Meisi werfen also alles in den Topf, was nicht niet- und nagelfest ist: Einlagen, unendliche Affen, Weizenkleie und Dipeptide und kochen uns einen unendlichen Eintopf. Im Zentrum steht die Frage: Was ist überhaupt eine Suppe? Die auf den ersten Blick einfach klingende Frage entpuppt sich auf zwei Stunden Sendezeit ausgeweitet als hoch philosophisches, bisweilen sogar semiotisches Paradox. Damit das Publikum nicht vom Fleisch fällt, hat sich Herr Eisenbart eine Palette Instant-Ramen mitgebracht, die wir gemeinschaftlich knuspern. Das verbindet. Wir haben außerdem erstmals ein Publikumsbeteiligungsmikrofon aufgestellt, um unsere kleine Kultursendung aus dem Elfenbein herauszuzerren und zu demokratisieren. Außerdem mit dabei: Herr Marco und Herr Simon, die die ungezählte Menge an supper Texten aus dem originalen EBMD-Autor:innenpool mit viel Liebe und einer Prise Salz in Ihre Mikrofone sprechen und diesen denkwürdigen Abend geschmackvoll abrunden.

We just walked through the CHRO Paradox series, and I know how this usually goes: you nodded along, felt aligned, and then your calendar immediately ate the follow-through. We don't need more data or another complex framework; we need the moves. This episode is about stripping back the noise and giving you three actionable steps—one for defining your role, one for aligning your partnership, and one for building your bench—that you can actually execute before Monday hits. You don't need a massive transformation to see results; you need one clear conversation about ownership, one dimension of partnership to sharpen, and three rising leaders to stretch. I've built a one-page People Leadership Alignment Guide to help you have those exact conversations without the heavy lifting. It's the easiest way to turn your strategy into an honest, shared plan with your CEO. Comment "ALIGN" below and I'll send the guide straight to you—no cost, no catch, just the work. Clarify the Role: Have one conversation this week that defines what the CHRO role owns, advises on, and observes. Align the Partnership: Pick one of the five dimensions discussed (budget, org design, AI strategy, board engagement, or succession) and get shared clarity on that single dimension this month. Build the Bench: Look two levels down, identify three rising leaders, and give each of them one stretch experience this year. Stacie For more episodes, visit StacieBaird.com.

Artificial intelligence is accelerating demand for data center power at a pace that is reshaping the global energy agenda. In this episode of the Look Forward podcast, host Aries Poon speaks with Tony Lenoir, data center expert at S&P Global, about whether AI growth can coexist with decarbonization goals — and how hyperscalers are rethinking their energy strategies in response.

If markets no longer price value, then what's actually setting the price?Raise Your Average hosts Pierre Daillie and Adam Butler sit down with Michael Green, Chief Strategist and Portfolio Manager at Simplify Asset Management, for a deep dive into the passive investing thesis he has spent over a decade researching, defending, and stress testing.Green argues that trillions of dollars flowing automatically into index funds via 401(k)s, RSPs, and defined contribution plans have created a market where price no longer reflects judgment about value. He walks through the mechanics of the "inelastic market hypothesis," the outsized role of leveraged and levered sector ETFs like SOXL, the Grossman-Stiglitz framework and why its core assumptions no longer hold, and why active and value investing have become structurally disadvantaged in the current regime.The conversation also covers the 2026 macro backdrop of a US-Iran conflict, an oil shock, and equities at all-time highs despite it, the risk of a passive "end stage," and where genuine diversification (like managed futures) still fits. It's a candid, occasionally combative, and consistently illuminating discussion for anyone trying to understand why markets are behaving in ways that don't match historical patterns.Chapters00:00 – Introduction: has the market stopped pricing risk?08:00 – Welcome to Michael Green; setting up 2026's contradictions09:00 – The 50-year shift into "all equities all the time"10:00 – How ETF mechanics reduce market elasticity12:00 – Why pod shops and passive flows ignore fundamentals entirely13:00 – Leveraged sector ETFs (SOXL) aren't really passive15:00 – Echoes of the dot-com bubble: 1999 vs. today18:00 – Circular funding and Mag Seven earnings41:00 – Momentum, autocorrelation, and portfolio construction under passive dominance44:00 – Pushback from the Financial Times and mainstream finance media44:30 – Malkiel's Paradox of Skill and the Grossman-Stiglitz framework, unpacked47:00 – Why the "equal endowment" assumption is false49:00 – The large-stack player sets the terms of the market50:00 – The Inelastic Market Hypothesis (Gabaix and Koijen) and Green's updated multiplier estimates52:00 – Facilitators vs. correctors: why Citadel and Jane Street are thriving55:00 – The Newtonian vs. quantum physics analogy for market scale57:00 – GameStop, Michael Saylor, and self-liquidating vehicles1:13:00 – Market cap concentration data and transaction cost asymmetries1:15:00 – Why cap weighting has flipped from historically losing to structurally winning1:17:00 – Stein's Law and the coming correction1:18:00 – Why value investing is a "negative selection criteria" right now1:21:00 – Where active investors can still add value: becoming facilitators1:22:00 – Managed futures as liquidity provision and portfolio ballast1:25:00 – Capacity constraints and closing thoughts#MichaelGreen #PassiveInvesting #RaiseYourAverage #SimplifyAssetManagement #ETFs #IndexFunds #MarketStructure #InelasticMarketHypothesis #ActiveManagement #ValueInvesting #ManagedFutures #Macro #InvestingPodcast #StockMarket #FinancePodcast #WallStreet #PortfolioManagement #MarketBubble #AdvisorAnalyst

First, I tackle the deeply personal side of growth. While I know honest feedback is absolute gold for cultivating self-awareness and growing as a leader, the immediate sting of criticism is incredibly real. I unpack the psychological mechanics of defensiveness, exploring the crucial difference between feeling defensive the normal emotional reaction we can't control and acting defensive the actual behaviors we choose next. I'll share how you can validate your initial emotions so you can quiet that defensive urge and reframe critiques as a masterclass in personal growth. But what happens when feedback becomes a weapon of over-scrutiny? I dive deep into the dark side of workplace dynamics: feedback fatigue. If you or your team have felt a sudden drop in motivation, emotional exhaustion, or physical strain from constant evaluation, you aren't alone. I analyze how today's hyper-capitalist "Achievement Society" has subtly forced us to internalize our own bosses, transforming us into self-exploitation projects chasing a moving finish line. If you have ever felt trapped by the "tyranny of endless positivity" or haunted by the vague, unquantifiable anxiety that you are "never quite enough," this episode is your invitation to break free. Tune in to discover how I protect my peace, leverage feedback to grow, and reclaim the life-changing power of the pause. Enjoy!

Organizational leaders are often under constant pressure to deliver simple solutions in the face of deeply complex challenges, with confidence and speed. You may experience this as a kind of "either/or" decision-making, a tension between doing things this way or that way. A leader pressured to decide quickly may miss insights that emerge from sitting with the tension within the paradox they face. Amidst these dynamics, can leaders hold the possibility of "both/and"? Our guest, Wendy Smith, suggests that moving beyond reductionist thinking requires embracing the interdependent tensions of paradox. She encourages us to shift our focus from making forced choices to discovering how opposing forces can reinforce one another. Cultivating "both/and" thinking is no longer a purely theoretical exercise; it is an essential, everyday capability needed to navigate the ambiguity of our changing world, disrupt transactional habits, and build courageous, thriving communities. Dr. Wendy K. Smith is an expert in organizational behavior whose research focuses on paradox theory and how leaders navigate competing demands to drive creative solutions. She is the co-author of Both/And Thinking: Embracing Creative Tensions to Solve Your Toughest Problems. Recognized as a Thinkers50 top global management thinker and one of the most cited researchers in her field, Dr. Smith is the Dana J. Johnson Professor of Management & Faculty Director of the Women's Leadership Initiative at the University of Delaware. She will serve as a Fellow at Harvard Business School for the 2026-27 academic year. This episode Challenges the pervasive demand for immediate clarity and rapid decision-making, demonstrating how rushing to resolve ambiguity can diminish both decision quality and human dignity. Unpacks the conceptual difference between a dilemma (a choice to be made) and a paradox (interdependent, synergistic tensions, such as stability vs. change or the abstract vs. the practical). Plays with the idea of "cauliflower living"—a deep integration where a strong global economy feeds the distinct, hyper-local traditions of communities, an example of "Both/And" thinking that revitalized Fogo Island, Newfoundland. Examines how unheld uncertainty breeds a social contagion of fear, proposing building a capacity for collective courage to hold interdependent tensions rather than retreating into polarized camps.

There's a booming business in divisiveness. And PR is caught right in the thick of it.Recorded at the June 2026 IABC conference in Toronto, Doug Downs speaks with Fred Cook about A Quiet Shift, a report exploring how polarization is reshaping public relations. Cook explains why division is damaging society, mental health, and business while making thoughtful communications counsel more valuable. They examine echo chambers, outrage as a political and media strategy, the possibility that AI reinforces existing beliefs, and the disappearance of productive dialogue. Cook also outlines how PR education must evolve, emphasizing crisis management, finance, government relations, public affairs, ethics, and responsible technology use. Ultimately, the conversation challenges communicators to adapt without contributing to the very divisions that create demand for their expertise.Listen For2:33 How Is Polarization Changing Public Relations?5:38 Why Can Polarization Make PR More Valuable—and More Vulnerable?6:25 Is AI Reinforcing Bias and Deepening Polarization?9:01 Which Skills Will Future PR Professionals Need Most?12:00 Why Does Calling the Other Side “Stupid” Destroy Dialogue?Guest: Fred Cook, Director USC USC Annenberg Center for Public RelationsFred bioDoug DownsSubstack | Website | LinkedIn Subscribe to the Stories and Strategies PR podcast newsletter Are you a brand with a podcast that needs support?

Host Dr Russell Thackeray interviews Sydney-based psychologist, former HR/leadership development director, and secular Buddhist teacher Lenore Lambert about her work Flourish Personal Growth and her “People Against Rushing” (PAR) intentions: a 20% time buffer, blank diary spaces, and “be where you are.” Lambert outlines her “nine elements of human flourishing,” adding safety factors to Seligman's model: material security, autonomy, ease with uncertainty, and belonging, plus pleasure, engagement/flow, achievement, connection, and contribution. They discuss resilience as bouncing back/forward from setbacks, the risks of overdoing any element (especially money, power, and status), and research on “maximisers” vs “sufficers.” Lenore emphasises flourishing as both content and process, using learning, mindfulness, and Buddhist insight to reduce reactivity and respond rather than react.

In God's kingdom, some of the most powerful prayers seem to make very little sense from a human perspective. Pastor Nichole examines PRAYER PARADOXES and how we handle the times when God seems to act contradictory in the natural world to unleash power in the supernatural.Today is Wild Stillness– let's see how silence has a way of reminding us that God is still on the throne even when our world feels out of control.

Kurt Gödel was a genius mathematician and logician, considered by many scholars to be as influential as Aristotle. He was also buddies with fellow geniuses Albert Einstein and Oskar Morgenstern, the co-creator of Game Theory. In 1947, Gödel told Morgenstern and Einstein he had identified an inner contradiction in the U.S. Constitution while studying for his citizenship test: the type of loophole that could plunge the United States into a dictatorship not unlike the Nazi regime Gödel had escaped when he immigrated from Austria. So, what was the loophole? Over the years, everyone from Constitutional law scholars to laypeople on Reddit have wondered. Endless Thread plumbs the depths of Gödel's galaxy brain with the help of philosopher, writer and Gödel expert Rebecca Newberger Goldstein — and learns some surprising lessons about artificial intelligence, a German shorthand called Gabelsberger, and democracy along the way. Show notes: Incompleteness: The Proof and Paradox of Kurt Gödel, by Rebecca Newberger Goldstein (Amazon) Oskar Morgenstern's account of Kurt Gödel's naturalization (Institute of Advanced Study) This episode was produced by Grace Tatter.

John sits down with Graeme Wright, author of the definitive Shooting the British Double Rifle, to explore why double rifles continue to captivate hunters more than a century after their golden era. Graeme shares how his lifelong fascination began and eventually grew into owning and shooting over 100 double rifles. He explains the original purpose of the double rifle, breaks down key terms (side lock vs. box lock, ejectors vs. extractors, Black Powder Express vs. Nitro Express), and tells the story of how Australia became a major hub for these classic firearms. They also dive into the famous .450 ban and the cartridges created to work around it (.470 NE, .500/.465 NE, .476 NE), the enduring appeal of the .500 NE and .577 NE, and more. Graeme even shares field stories, including hunting buffalo with an 8-bore Paradox gun. Whether you already own a double rifle or are simply curious about these iconic firearms, this episode delivers both deep historical insight and practical knowledge from one of the world's leading authorities.

Shane reflects on 50 years of the modern U.S. death penalty, tracing his journey from defender to opponent on moral and Christian grounds. Exposing its roots in poverty, racial bias, and historical lynching, he highlights abolitionist activism—from prayer vigils to powerful stories of exonerees and former wardens haunted by botched executions.

For much of mid-2026, sweltering summer heat waves and soaring electricity demand across the United States failed to ignite a sustained rally in natural gas pricing, with Henry Hub futures continuing to face downward pressure. While conventional wisdom points to hot weather driving up prompt month contracts, expanding renewable generation and stubborn associated gas production from oil-heavy basins have steadily altered summer supply-demand balances. As total US storage inventories hover comfortably above historical averages ahead of peak hurricane season, the market faces a delicate balancing act: Can growing LNG feedgas demand and future data center load offset an influx of gassier supply, or could infrastructure limits cap upside potential heading into winter? In this episode of Hub & Flow, NGI's Christopher Lenton sits down with Senior Editor Andrew Baker to break down the summer trends, structural bottlenecks and regional price disconnects redefining the US natural gas landscape. The conversation explores why record heat isn't translating to higher Henry Hub prices, how rapid wind and solar growth are reshaping traditional EIA storage injections, and why associated gas from high oil prices is acting as a soft cap on upside momentum. Baker also shares key insights into mid-summer LNG feedgas volatility, the reality of artificial intelligence-driven data center demand versus power grid constraints, and the key regional basis spreads to watch from Waha and the Northeast to the Desert Southwest.

Sally notes that she bypassed early medical detection because she experienced the exact opposite: an abundance of hyper-energy she couldn't burn off.⏱ 11:14 — The Emotional Root & The Throat ChakraBoth discuss how physical treatments only go so far without emotional work. They link thyroid health to the throat chakra, explaining how swallowed words, censoring one's authentic voice, and internalizing conflict rather than speaking out can manifest as internal illness.⏱ 15:33 — The Truth About Thyroid Medications & FatsA critical look at the long-term side effects of pharmaceutical hormone replacements (like Synthroid/Levothyroxine) and natural desiccated thyroid alternatives, including the unadvertised risk of osteoporosis. They also challenge modern medical dogmas by discussing why the body requires saturated fats and cholesterol to synthesize Vitamin D and support hormones.⏱ 33:06 — Sally's Top Tip for Thyroid HealthWhen asked for her single best piece of advice for someone struggling right now, Sally emphasizes addressing your diet first as a foundation, but insists you must simultaneously look at the mental and emotional sides of your life.⏱ 33:21 — Holistic Reset Retreats in ZanzibarSally introduces her chronic illness and deep reset retreats at Pure Health Zanzibar.

An interview with Kelly Alvarez DoranWhy do our building codes encourage carbon pollution? How have we landed in a "progress paradox," where older buildings often outperform new ones in both operational and embodied energy? In this episode, we sit down with Kelly Alvarez Doran, co-founder of Ha/f Climate Design, to unpack the hidden impacts of the built environment—a sector responsible for nearly 40% of global emissions.The good news is that architects and planners can use their agency to stop these "right now" pollutants. Meaningful decarbonization doesn't have to cost a premium: Kelly shares how simple material swaps recently slashed a UK project's carbon by 26% (800 tonnes) with zero impact on the budget or schedule.Kelly Alvarez DoranKelly is a father, architect and educator. His holistic approach to the design of the built environment has been shaped by his experiences working across the world - first in the resource development sector, and later as MASS Design Group's East African Director where he led the design and implementation of several of MASS's projects, notably the Rwanda Institute for Conservation Agriculture–winner of several international awards for sustainable design and construction. Working in these contexts brought about a profound sense of the scales of social and environmental impacts inherent to the built environment. Kelly is an Adjunct Professor at the University of Toronto, a Senior Fellow of Architecture 2030, a founding member of the Bio-based Materials Collective, a winner of the Canada Council's Prix de Rome for Emerging Practitioners, and a member of the RAIC's Committee on Regenerative Environments.TeamHosted by Kristof IrwinEdited by Nico MignardiProduced by M.

Americans say they feel bad about the economy. Their spending tells a different story.  Michelle Meyer, Chief Economist at Mastercard and head of the Mastercard Economics Institute, joins Liz Thomas to share her perspective on what Mastercard is seeing in real-time spending data.  The episode looks at why consumer sentiment has stayed weak even as spending has held up. Meyer says the data shows consumers are still buying, but the easy spending environment has changed. Higher prices have made people more selective. That puts more pressure on companies that once had more room to pass costs through.  The conversation uses travel as one example of the gap between mood and behavior. And also looks at how spending behavior is changing beneath the headline numbers, from online returns to the way people research purchases before they buy.  This episode is for informational purposes only and should not be considered investment advice.

Recorded at the PSE-CEPR Policy Forum, Paris School of Economics, June 2026.In 1941 the United States banned oil exports to Japan, to punish aggression without fighting a war. Historians now argue the embargo did the opposite, and hastened Japan's entry into the war.Isabelle Méjean (Sciences Po, CEPR) calls this "The safety paradox". Trade between rivals makes war more expensive. Cut that trade to protect your interests, and you make conflict cheaper, for your rival as well as for you. In a new VoxTalk she talks to Tim Phillips about economic coercion, decoupling, and why Europe should treat its trade agreements as insurance.Méjean and her co-authors simulated the US decoupling from China. Raising tariffs by 20 percentage points, roughly what the first Trump administration did, raises the probability of war by 2%, she estimates. That sounds small until you consider what a war between the US and China would mean.The research behind this episode:Mayer, Thierry, Isabelle Méjean, and Mathias Thoenig. 2025. "The Fragmentation Paradox: De-risking Trade and Global Safety." CEPR Discussion Paper 20564 (gated).To cite this episode:Phillips, Tim, and Isabelle Méjean. 2026. "The Safety Paradox." VoxTalks Economics (podcast).About the guestIsabelle Méjean is Professor of Economics at Sciences Po and a Research Fellow of the Centre for Economic Policy Research, where she directs the International Trade and Regional Economics programme and is a member of the Research Policy Network on Geoeconomics and Security. She is a scientific advisor at CEPII and a member of the French Conseil d'Analyse Économique, with research spanning international trade, firm-to-firm networks, and how shocks to individual firms move whole economies. In 2020 she was named Best Young Economist of France.Research cited in this episodeMake Trade Not War? Philippe Martin, Thierry Mayer, and Mathias Thoenig's 2008 paper in the Review of Economic Studies (75(3): 865-900) provided the first quantitative evidence that bilateral trade integration reduces the probability of interstate conflict; the diplomatic game in the new paper builds directly on it.Montesquieu, De l'esprit des lois (1748). The earliest statement of the idea, Méjean notes, that interdependence between nations raises the cost of conflict and strengthens the hand of diplomacy; what was trade dependence in the 18th century now includes finance and technology.The US oil embargo on Japan, 1941. Méjean's historical example of the safety paradox in action; a policy designed to impose costs on Japan is widely credited by historians with accelerating its entry into the Second World War.China's trade ban on Lithuania. After Lithuania allowed a Taiwanese representative office to open in Vilnius in 2021, China blocked Lithuanian products from its market; the episode's example of open economic coercion, and one that prompted the EU's Anti-Coercion Instrument, in force since 2023.Liberation Day tariffs. The US tariffs announced in April 2025; Méjean points to the tariff on Brazil, justified by the treatment of former president Jair Bolsonaro, as a tariff with an explicitly geopolitical rather than economic purpose.Rare earths. China holds a near monopoly across mining, refining, and magnet production; Méjean's example of where future trade agreements could act as insurance, because deposits outside China offer more scope for diversification than mining in Europe.More VoxTalks Economics episodesEurope in the Middle.

Josh Cole discussed Zeno's paradox that says motion is not possible since you must go half-way, and then half of the remaining distance, and so on, infinitely. Aristotle and others struggled with this, using ideas like "potential infinity" that hint at ideas that would appear in calculus hundreds of years later. The ancient Greeks were focused on the counting numbers, so they expect things to happen in succession. In particular, the Arrow Paradox asks at what point in time does an arrow move.

A Silicon-Carbon Collaboration.What does AI actually cost?We hear a great deal about the energy, water, and infrastructure required to build AI. Those conversations matter. But they often stop at one side of the ledger.This episode asks a different question: What are we NOT counting?Beginning with data centers and Jevons' Paradox, we explore what it means to think economically—not just in terms of financial cost, but in terms of human cost and human benefit. Along the way, we discuss accessibility, executive function, abuse support, creativity, transportation, and why reducing friction can create entirely new possibilities rather than simply replacing old ones.And, perhaps most importantly, we ask whether the value of new technology should be measured only by what it consumes... or also by what it makes possible.

The TL;DR: What happens when HR tech's most prominent conversational AI platform gets swallowed by an enterprise titan? In this high-octane episode, Chad and Cheese sit down with Adam Godson—the newly crowned GM of Talent Acquisition Products at Workday—to dissect the aftermath of the Paradox acquisition. Forget standard corporate buzzwords; this is a raw look at how AI "agents" are systematically dismantling traditional software, why the SAS pricing model is officially on life support, and what it actually takes to survive the "SAS Apocalypse." The Death of the "Click-and-Scroll" ATS The "SAS Apocalypse" is Real Resumes are "Lousy" 2D Artifacts Recruiting is Splitting in Two "What you get rid of is the people that wish they were talking to candidates, but are clicking buttons in the system. And that's a good thing." — Adam Godson Why it matters: This episode serves as a blueprint for the next five years of recruitment tech. If you are still relying on legacy keywords, manual data entry, and traditional seat licenses, your strategy is already on borrowed time.

This is the first of a number of episodes on the broad theme of “the technoprogressive opportunity”. That's the name of a conference taking place in London on the weekend of 19th and 20th September, co-organised by London Futurists and the IEET – the Institute for Ethics and Emerging Technologies. In these episodes, some of the speakers from that conference will be appearing as guests on this show.Our guest today is one of these speakers, Matteo Rossi MacDermant, a technophilosopher from the University of New Mexico. Matteo hosts a show called “Bread and Robots”, which covers subjects such as post-scarcity economics, universal basic income, the tech workers movement, and how technology can be steered toward collective abundance rather than corporate exploitation. Matteo is also the instructor for an online course called “An introduction to technoprogressive worldbuilding”.Selected follow-ups:The Technoprogressive Opportunity: Event in London, Sept 19-20The IEET - A Technoprogressive Think-TankMatteo Rossi MacDermant - LinkedInBread and Robots - Podcast and Substack by Matteo Rossi MacDermantAn Introduction to Technoprogressive Worldbuilding"Technoprogressive Declaration" - from Transvision 20142017 update to the Technoprogressive DeclarationUBI Guide - by Scott SantensUniversal Basic Capital - Windfall Trust"How a Land Value Tax Can Fund a UBI" - Scott SantensUniversal Basic Income and/or Alternatives - London Futurists conference held in 2018"Why the AI world is suddenly obsessed with a 160-year-old economics paradox" - Jevon's Paradox explained by Greg Rosalsky"The Longevity City: Cities as the Engines of Healthy Longevity" - essay by Matteo Rossi MacDermant"The London boroughs with the best and worst 'healthy life' expectancy""The Abolition of Aging" - book by David Wood (includes analysis of economic implications)Music: Spike Protein, by Koi Discovery, available under CC0 1.0 Public Domain DeclarationC-Suite PerspectivesElevate how you lead with insight from today's most influential executives.Listen on: Apple Podcasts Spotify

Spirit of God E1 — In 2017, we released a 3-episode series on the theme of the Holy Spirit. And now eight years later, we've decided there's still a lot more to reflect on and explore! The word we translate in English as “spirit” is ruakh in the Hebrew Bible and pneuma in the Greek New Testament. The word refers to God's personal presence, but it also often refers to wind, breath, and a human's mind. So how can this word refer to God's manifest presence and energy, but also created things? In this episode, Jon and Tim kick off a new expanded series on the Spirit of God. CHAPTERS The Frequency of Ruakh and Pneuma in the Bible (0:00-13:32) The Meaning of Ruakh (13:32-25:05) The Paradox of Wind and God's Spirit (25:05-40:39) Ruakh as a Mind or Idea (40:39-53:39) OFFICIAL EPISODE TRANSCRIPT View this episode's official transcript.

The pervasive exhaustion resulting from witnessing modern global atrocities often creates a paralyzing "hopeRot," yet the cultivation of an radical "HopeCore" remains an essential engine for systemic transformation. Writer and curator, Shumon Basar, analyzes the rewiring of the global psyche through the rise of Gulf Futurism and the eventual arrival of a post-Western reality. His critique centers on the provincialization of the West, a phenomenon where a minority population disproportionately dictates universal narratives and conceptual models. The discussion further traverses the evolution of Dubai from a startup city to a global urban paradigm, alongside a sobering exploration of the war on amnesia", as Basar describes it, through alternative institutions and magical historical thinking. Ultimately, the conversation confronts the unmasking of power and the abandonment of institutional shame, reinforcing the vital necessity of counter-histories in an increasingly ahistorical digital age.   00:00 Introduction 04:36 The Rewiring of the Global Psyche 07:30 Spectral Enemies and the Geography of Time 10:08 Provincializing the West and Cognitive Mapping 16:13 The Foundational Myths of Unification 27:31 The Paradox of HopeRot and HopeCore 34:39 Absolute Impunity and the Narrative Battle 44:02 The Reckoning of Liberal Fascism 53:48 Alternative Institutions and the War on Amnesia 01:00:10 Magical Historical Thinking in the Extreme Present   Shumon Basar is a British-Bangladeshi writer, editor, and curator born in 1974.

تفاوت حکومت نظامی در پاکستان و کره جنوبی.چرا در بعضی کشورها ارتش نه فقط مسئول امنیت، بلکه همه‌کاره‌ی سیاست و اقتصاد می‌شود؟ چطور می‌شود یک ارتش بعد از بزرگ‌ترین شکست نظامی‌اش نه‌تنها ضعیف نشود، بلکه از قبل هم قوی‌تر بیرون بیاید؟در این ویدیو به سراغ مفهوم «دولت‌های پادگانی» و نظامی‌گری می‌رویم و بررسی می‌کنیم که چطور نفوذ نظامیان می‌تواند سرنوشت یک ملت را برای دهه‌ها تغییر دهد. از نقش ژنرال‌ها در توسعه تا بحران‌هایی که حضور مداوم آن‌ها در قدرت ایجاد می‌کند.در این ویدیو از پاکستان شروع می‌کنیم؛ کشوری که ارتشش بعد از شکست ۱۹۷۱ و جدایی بنگلادش، نه به پادگان برگشت و نه از قدرت کنار رفت. برعکس، آرام‌آرام تبدیل شد به یکی از مهم‌ترین بازیگران سیاست، اقتصاد و امنیت کشور.بعد می‌رویم سراغ کره جنوبی؛ کشوری که آن هم سال‌ها زیر سایه نظامیان بود، اما در نهایت ارتش از سیاست عقب نشست و به پادگان برگشت.سؤال اصلی این ویدیو این است:قدرت یک نهاد نظامی فقط به اسلحه و فرماندهی‌اش بستگی دارد؟ یا باید دید با اقتصاد، ایدئولوژی، نخبگان و جامعه چه رابطه‌ای ساخته؟ متن: بهجت بندری، علی بندری، با راهنمایی آرشام رئیسی‌نژاد | ویدیو و صدا: حمیدرضا فرخ‌سرشتبرای دیدن ویدیوی این اپیزود اگر ایران هستید وی‌پی‌ان بزنید و روی لینک زیر کلیک کنیدیوتیوب بی‌پلاسکانال تلگرام بی‌پلاسمنابع و عنوان‌هایی برای کنجکاوی بیشترChristine Fair Explains the Pakistan Army's Way of WarFighting to the End: The Pakistan Army's Way of WarImpasse with the IMF: Egypt's Deteriorating Economy and the Role of the MilitaryHow Democracies Die - Steven LevitskyCompetitive Authoritarianism: A Conversation with Steven Levitsky and Lucan WaySteven Levitsky | Competitive AuthoritarianismSteve Levitsky | Democracy in Latin America After the Left TurnHow Sanctions Work: Iran and the Impact of Economic Warfare - Narges Bajoghli & Vali NasrGovernance Deadlock and Economic Crisis in Iran | Iranian StudiesHow Sanctions Work: Iran and the Impact of Economic WarfareYoon Suk Yeol: How South Korea's democracy rallied after martial law orderDr. Risa Brooks on the Theory and Paradoxes of Civil-Military Relations Hosted on Acast.

1203. In this bonus discussion with Dr. Charles Kemp, we look at why the Chinese writing system has actually become visually more complex over thousands of years. Dr. Kemp explains how his team used "perimetric complexity" to measure characters and why the need for distinctiveness in a growing vocabulary overrides the natural drive for simplicity.
