Nick pushes back, highlighting legislative trends, land constraints, and the role of corporate investors. Together, they dissect the causes, clash over solutions, and explore whether cities can be part of the fix—or are part of the problem.

Réécoutez True House Takeover by Lenny Fontana avec Paul Johnson du samedi 17 mai 2025

Born in 1928 in Manchester, Paul Johnson was a British Catholic who while at the helm of the New Statesman liked to boast that he had met every British prime minister from Churchill to Blair and every American president from Eisenhower to George W. Bush—the latter of whom awarded Paul Johnson with the Presidential Medal of Freedom in 2006. After publishing a fascinating, spanning history of Christianity, Paul Johnson grew ever more curious about Judaism, Christianity's elder brother in faith. That fascination led, in 1987, to the publication of his A History of the Jews, which until now is perhaps the best paced, best written single-volume history of the Jewish idea in English. It was sometimes quipped that it was given as a gift to half the bar mitzvahs in America. Paul Johnson died at the age of ninety-four in January 2023. Shortly after Johnson's death, the Jewish historian J.J. Kimche published an analysisA History of the Jews. Kimche provokes some very fascinating questions, including why this lifelong Catholic took such a sympathetic view and lively interest—theological, historical, social, cultural—in the Jews. What does such a non-Jew see in Jewish history, and what can we, as Jews, learn from his external perspective on our own past? Kimche joins Mosaic's editor Jonathan Silver to discuss these questions. Musical selections in this podcast are drawn from the Quintet for Clarinet and Strings, op. 31a, composed by Paul Ben-Haim and performed by the ARC Ensemble.

Paul Johnson is the chair of Liphook in Bloom, a group of volunteers who make the village even more beautiful. Mark Simpson found out more. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this episode of New Frontiers, host Paul Johnson is joined by columnist Bob Robb and scholar Henry Tomson to unpack a high-stakes question: Can an independent candidate win the Arizona governor's race? With Trump's influence looming over the Republican primary and growing dissatisfaction among voters, the conversation explores whether Karen Taylor Robson—or someone like her—can carve a viable path outside the traditional party lines.Topics Discussed in This Video: The Viability of an Independent Governor in Arizona: Paul, Bob, and Henry explore whether the independent political path is realistic, particularly in Arizona where independent registration is at an all-time high. They weigh the historical context, structural barriers, and unique opportunities this might present for candidates like Karen Taylor Robson.Karen Taylor Robson's Political Dilemma: The panel analyzes Robson's current position—caught between appeasing the MAGA base and maintaining her traditional Republican identity. They discuss her potential strengths as a pragmatic problem-solver and whether she should consider switching lanes to an independent run.The Republican Primary Landscape: Insights are offered into the Republican race featuring Andy Biggs and Robson, including Trump's influential endorsements and how MAGA loyalty has shaped electoral outcomes in Arizona. Robb provides polling data and political analysis, shedding light on the dynamics shaping the GOP field.Challenges Facing Independent Candidates: The discussion outlines the steep logistical hurdles for independent runs in Arizona, including signature thresholds, campaign funding, and the need to build public recognition without party infrastructure. Despite this, they argue Robson may be uniquely positioned to overcome these due to her resources and track record.Economic and Political Reflections on Trump's Presidency: In the second half of the episode, the panel evaluates the Trump administration's first 100 days, focusing on tariffs, economic indicators, market volatility, and foreign policy stances. They critically examine how Trump's policy shifts are being received domestically and abroad, and what this means for future elections.The Role of Optimism and Pragmatism in Leadership: Through all these themes, the conversation returns to the need for authentic, growth-focused leadership—something the panel believes an independent governor could uniquely provide in today's fractured political climate.

La elección del obispo de Roma, también conocido como Santo Padre, Sumo Pontífice y, sobre todo, como Papa, es un proceso de gran significado teológico, histórico y eclesial para el catolicismo. Se le considera sucesor del apóstol Pedro, a quien, según la doctrina católica, Jesucristo confió el Gobierno espiritual de su Iglesia. Eso implica que el Papa ejerce una autoridad única en su especie. Esta creencia en la sucesión apostólica, una línea ininterrumpida de obispos que se remonta hasta el origen mismo del cristianismo, es la base de la legitimidad papal y uno de los pilares sobre los que descansa la fe católica. Desde los primeros siglos, padres y doctores de la Iglesia como San Agustín, Tertuliano, Ireneo de Lyon o Isidoro de Sevilla defendieron que la verdadera doctrina se encontraba en aquella iglesia que podía demostrar una sucesión episcopal directa desde Pedro, por lo que era fundamental tener muy claro quiénes habían ido ocupando su lugar a lo largo del tiempo. Para San Agustín la sede romana era la “prima sedes” y eso significaba que tenía siempre la última palabra, un principio condensado en el dicho “Roma locuta, causa finita est” (Roma ha hablado, la causa está terminada). En ese punto se presentaba un problema. Los Papas, como simples seres humanos, son mortales, luego había que elegirlos cuando pasaban a mejor vida. Pero, a pesar de la importancia de la sucesión petrina, el método específico para seleccionar al sucesor de Pedro no estaba prescrito en las Escrituras, más allá del principio general del nombramiento apostólico o el proceso sugerido por Pedro para reemplazar a Judas. Esta ausencia de un procedimiento fijo y ordenado por Dios provocó que el método para elegir al Papa fuese evolucionando con el tiempo, a veces de forma un tanto conflictiva. La falta de un sistema claro de elección provocó que desde el principio surgiesen cismas y tras ellos figuras conocidas como antipapas, es decir, pretendientes rivales al trono papal que contaban con el apoyo de facciones eclesiásticas o poderes seculares. El camino hasta el cónclave actual, conformado por el Colegio Cardenalicio que se encierra durante el tiempo que sea necesario en la capilla Sixtina, no ha sido sencillo. Desde los inicios de la institución han sido muchos los que, tanto en la propia Roma como fuera de ella, han querido influir sobre la elección de un nuevo Papa imponiendo un candidato favorable a sus intereses o vetando a quienes los perjudicaban. La historia de la elección papal no es más que un reflejo de la propia historia de la Iglesia: una tensión constante entre los ideales de pureza espiritual y la realidad política siempre cambiante. Las reformas adoptadas a lo largo del siglo XX alumbraron el método actual que seguramente no es perfecto, pero al menos garantiza un proceso ordenado, secreto e independiente.

In this episode of New Frontiers, host Paul Johnson is joined by economist Elliott Pollack, columnist Bob Robb, and professor Henry Thompson to explore one of America's most urgent issues: housing affordability. Together, they dig into how city zoning laws, regulatory delays, and supply constraints have fueled a housing crisis – and why homelessness, economic stagnation, and unaffordability are all symptoms of a deeper policy failure.Through compelling analysis, real-world examples, and expert commentary, the panel discusses Arizona's unique housing landscape and how it reflects national trends. With bipartisan legislative efforts gaining momentum, the episode explores whether change can happen at the city level – or if it must come from the state legislature to break through entrenched local resistance.Topics Discussed in This Video:- The Economic Truth About Supply and Demand: The panel dissects the basic economic principle that more housing supply leads to lower costs—and why some skeptics still resist this truth despite overwhelming data.- Zoning and Regulation: A Hidden Driver of the Crisis: Learn how local zoning restrictions, permitting delays, and aesthetic requirements are choking supply and pushing costs up—impacting everyone from essential workers to young families.- Homelessness: A Housing Problem?: The guests discuss research suggesting that a shortage of available homes, not just mental health or substance abuse, is a major driver of homelessness—and why a broader supply strategy may be the only scalable solution.- Who Holds the Power to Fix This?: While cities often resist reforms, the Arizona legislature has begun considering powerful, bipartisan measures to free the housing market. Will they succeed where local governments have stalled?- The Case for Home Ownership: Beyond economics, the panel emphasizes the social and cultural value of home ownership, showing how it can create financial stability, family roots, and long-term opportunity.

Today we had the very exciting opportunity to take COBT “On The Road” to the Colorado School of Mines (CSM) in Golden, CO, where we recorded a special live audience show featuring Dr. Paul Johnson, President of CSM, and Jeff Miller, Chairman, President, and Chief Executive Officer of Halliburton. Paul has led CSM for nearly ten years and brings extensive experience in academia, previously serving as Dean of the School of Engineering at Arizona State University. Jeff has served as CEO of Halliburton since 2017 and has held multiple senior leadership roles across the company since joining in 1997. Before our discussion, we had the pleasure of touring the CSM campus, visiting with faculty, staff and students, and hearing from select administrators. We were thrilled to visit with Paul and Jeff for a broad discussion on the evolving landscape of energy education, workforce development, and the critical role of industry-academia collaboration in shaping the future of energy. In our conversation, we explore CSM's history, its longstanding focus on engineering, and its deep ties to the energy industry. We discuss the collaboration of Halliburton Labs with universities and research institutions as well as the resurgence of interest in mining, driven by its critical role in energy security and renewables. Paul shares insights into CSM's experimental mine and its applications across energy, defense, and technology sectors, how Mines contributes to U.S. competitiveness in the global energy landscape, and the university's balance between academic research and real-world industry applications. We examine the shift in student interests and industry focus over the past decade, Halliburton's approach to hiring and retaining skilled workers, and the benefits of CSM's emphasis on real-world problem solving. Paul shares his perspective on the increasing importance of hands-on experience in engineering education and the diversity of industries hiring CSM graduates from aerospace, oil and gas, infrastructure, computer science and more. Jeff discusses how Halliburton Labs supports early-stage companies, the role of accelerators in bridging the gap between R&D and commercialization, and differences between “Founders” and “CEOs.” We touch on technological advancements at CSM including its ambitious expansion into space resource utilization and development of a cutting-edge quantum engineering program, AI's growing impact on industry and education, and much more. We ended by asking Paul and Jeff for their vision of CSM and Halliburton in the next decade. Their outlook reflects continued growth and a can-do attitude toward solving some of the world's most pressing challenges. Today was a fascinating exploration of the current state of industry-academic collaboration, the new energy pragmatism we all keep talking about, and the incredible innovation that can happen on a great campus like CSM. As you'll hear, we discuss the exciting Halliburton Labs Pitch Day event taking place in Denver Wednesday. For more information and to register for Pitch Day, click here. If you are in Denver, it's not too late to come in person. Otherwise, you can register to attend virtually from anywhere! We want to thank the teams at Colorado School of Mines and Halliburton Labs for their partnership and hospitality in making today's episode possible. A huge thanks to Paul and Jeff for sharing their time and expertise with us all. And as always, thanks to you all for your friendship and support!

The UK's Labour government had already inherited a tricky fiscal situation when it came to power last July. But since then, growth has stagnated, borrowing costs have risen, and now the government has committed to a big increase in defence spending. Where will the money come from?

En 1541 Enrique VIII de Inglaterra se proclamó rey de Irlanda, un título que no existía pero que ordenó al parlamento crear para que sirviese de justificación para la invasión completa de la isla, algo que los monarcas ingleses habían intentado anteriormente pero sin éxito. Controlar toda la isla les llevó más de 60 años, al término de los cuales convirtieron convirtieron la isla vecina en algo parecido a una colonia. Impusieron la ley inglesa sobre los señores gaélicos y procedieron a la confiscación de sus tierras. No fue algo pacífico. Los irlandeses se resistieron abrazando con ímpetu la fe católica. Durante el reinado de Isabel I rebeliones como la de Desmond y la Guerra de los Nueve Años, fueron aplastadas sin piedad. Al final, en 1607, los condes Hugh O’Neill y Rory O’Donnell sabiéndose rodeados y sin posibilidad de resistir más huyeron a España para pedir ayuda a Felipe III poniendo de este modo fin a la conquista inglesa. Poco después comenzó la colonización del Úlster, un proyecto inglés que perseguía asentar colonos protestantes llegados desde Gran Bretaña en el norte de la isla. Eso implicaba el desplazamiento de la población católica nativa de la que los ingleses no se fiaban. La llegada de los colonos provocó una división religiosa en esta zona de la isla que aún se mantiene. La idea era colonizar toda la isla hasta dejar a la población local en minoría, pero la Inglaterra de aquel entonces era un reino poco poblado y de posibilidades limitadas. Los irlandeses siguieron resistiéndose. Se produjo una gran rebelión de 1641, seguida por la intervención de Oliver Cromwell en 1649, que consolidó el control inglés con una brutalidad que dejó cicatrices muy profundas en la isla. Cromwell, un puritano proveniente de Anglia, confiscó tierras para entregárselas a sus seguidores, y relegó a los irlandeses católicos a un estatus de segunda clase. Las Leyes Penales del siglo XVIII agravaron sus problemas. Prohibían directamente a los católicos poseer tierras, votar o acceder a educación. La élite protestante lo dominaba todo desde Dublín y Belfast, la capital del Ulster fundada por los colonos. El objetivo del Gobierno británico era que los irlandeses nativos se asimilasen a la fuerza hasta que la cultura y la lengua irlandesa terminasen desapareciendo. Pero no sucedió nada de eso. En el siglo XIX surgió el nacionalismo irlandés. La Gran Hambruna de 1845, provocada por una plaga y agravada por la indiferencia británica, acabó con la vida de un millón de irlandeses y forzó la emigración de otro millón, lo que redujo drásticamente la población. Este desastre avivó el resentimiento contra el dominio inglés y dio impulso al nacionalismo. Movimientos como los Jóvenes Irlandeses y, más tarde, la Hermandad Republicana Irlandesa comenzaron a exigir la independencia. La lucha por la emancipación y el autogobierno ganaron fuerza con Daniel O’Connell y Charles Stewart Parnell, pero se toparon con la feroz oposición de los unionistas del Úlster, quienes temían perder su identidad protestante en un Irlanda mayoritariamente católica. La primera guerra mundial sirvió de catalizador para todas estas tensiones que se habían acumulado en el siglo anterior. El Alzamiento de Pascua de 1916, aunque inicialmente fallido, incrementó el apoyo popular al Sinn Féin y al IRA. La Guerra de Independencia de 1919 forzó al Reino Unido a negociar. El resultado fue el Tratado Anglo-Irlandés de 1921. Irlanda recuperaba la independencia, pero no toda la isla. De los 32 condados que tenía seis de ellos permanecieron bajo control británico conformando Irlanda del Norte. La partición desató una breve guerra civil en el sur entre los partidarios y los detractores del tratado liderados por figuras como Éamon de Valera y Michael Collins. Los partidarios se impusieron dando lugar a la actual República de Irlanda. Pero la cuestión irlandesa no quedaba del todo resuelta con eso. Años después reviviría en los denominados “Troubles" que no concluyeron hasta 1998.

The world is changing fast — is America still leading the way? In this powerful discussion, Paul Johnson sits down with Elliott Pollack, Henry Thompson, and Bob Robb to analyze the Ukraine war, U.S. foreign policy, and the shifting balance of power.With tensions rising between Trump and Zelensky, NATO reassessing its defense strategy, and Putin making bold moves, this episode asks the tough questions:Is the U.S. stepping back from its role as leader of the free world?How will Europe and NATO respond to America's shifting priorities?What does this mean for the future of global security and economic dominance?Topics Discussed in the Video:- The Decline of U.S. Global Influence – Fact or Fiction? Is America truly a declining power, or is this just political fear mongering? The panel examines the economic and military realities of U.S. strength.- Trump, Zelensky & The Fight Over UkraineBreaking down the heated exchange between Trump and Zelensky – does this signal a major shift in America's role in global conflicts?- NATO, Europe & The Search for New LeadershipAs the U.S. debates its commitment to global alliances, will European nations step up to defend themselves, or are they still dependent on U.S. support?- Putin's Strategy – Does He Want Peace or Total Control?With massive Russian losses, what is Vladimir Putin's long-term goal? Is Ukraine just the beginning of his larger ambitions?- Political Pessimism vs. American StrengthIs the narrative of U.S. decline hurting its global position? How does domestic political division impact America's international standing?- U.S. Economy & Military Power – The Big PictureDespite the talk of decline, the U.S. remains the world's largest economy and military force – does it still have what it takes to lead?

He's now one of only 400 people that have completed a Transcon. Navy LT Paul Johnson joins me on the "Run The Race" podcast (subscribe now) to talk about his 3,000 mile run and walk from Los Angeles to New York City, plus his new world record for a fitness challenge in Antarctica...all of this helping him and others with mental health issues, some that come from military deployments. (5:11) Johnson talks about how running is a coping mechanism for his anxiety and depression. He loves it so much he ran across the USA in 52+ days, raising more than half a million dollars in the process for nonprofit Team RWB that helps military veterans with healthy lifestyles. Listen to the pod to hear more about that org plus his stories about transcon training...challenges like sandstorm and heat...sleep and crew...lots of food, that may sound strange and delicious...mental strength throughout the epic journey...seeing the USA this way...and the documentary film all about it that will be streaming this Spring. (21:34) How do different military branches handle fitness, like his - the Navy? Regardless, Johnson talks about exercise being essential for stress management...for any of us. On long deployments, stuck on a ship at sea, it's tough. (27:24) Another environment that's one of the harshest in the world is Antarctica, where he and a Navy vet friend ran 100 miles in the fastest time ever, just under 24 hours through snow and major winds! He describes that immense challenge. (33:31) And Paul Johnson also enjoys helping other people meet their goals, sharing fun videos on social media with tips about a lot of things to do before/during/after runs and workouts. You'll also want to hear about his next goals that are unique and may sound crazy. We close our chat with why it's so important to support causes like Team RWB. You can still donate to them, on behalf of Paul's transcon and upcoming movie: https://donate.teamrwb.org/fundraiser/5143120. Thanks for listening to the #RunTheRace podcast!

America is at a turning point. From Trump's dramatic shifts in foreign policy to Elon Musk's radical plan to slash federal spending, the future of the United States is being reshaped before our eyes. In this episode of New Frontiers, Paul Johnson and his expert panel break down the biggest issues facing the nation.Trump's foreign policy continues to shake the global order—his negotiations with Russia over Ukraine, his proposal for the U.S. to take over Gaza, and his push to make European allies take more responsibility for their own security. Are these bold moves a stroke of genius, or a dangerous gamble that weakens America's global influence?Meanwhile, Elon Musk's DOGE initiative is leading the charge to cut government spending, eliminate federal agencies, and restructure the way Washington operates. But with the national deficit at record highs, can budget cuts alone fix America's financial crisis, or is this an impossible mission?The conversation also explores inflation, tariffs, and falling consumer confidence—major issues affecting everyday Americans. Is the economy heading for recovery, or are we on the brink of another financial crisis?

Send us a textKnowing our modern history for the past hundred years is vital to understanding where we are today. In 1991 Paul Johnson republished his sweeping history of Modern Times and it is still relevant for current moderns these 30 years later. And it is amazing how fast we forget what we should have never forgot.Support the show

As a sort of "Re-Boot" for The Leftover Pieces; Suicide Loss Conversations podcast after taking the last 6 weeks of 2024 "off" I am choosing to 'start over' this way .... please listen weekly to Down the Rabbit Hole episodes dropped at the start of each week and / or listen daily to these readings from The Daily Stoic-- nuggets as I call them -- of wisdom passed along from Ryan Holiday. Stephen Hanselman and the ancient Greek Philosophers such as Marcus Aurelius, Epictetus and Seneca. I hope you will do both. I hope you will consider journaling along with me. I hope it provides some inspiration, even motivation to keep going, to how we do what we do, to why we do what we do in moving forward 'after'...I hope it is a tool that you (like me) might find useful in your life after loss by suicide.The following is an excerpt directly from the book -- they are not my words and are placed here as a sample to help you journal. The full book must be purchased to follow along all year. I am ONLY doing this in January (on the podcast).TODAYS READING January 24 - PUSH FOR DEEP UNDERSTANDINGGet your own copy of The Daily Stoic by Ryan Holiday & Stephen Hanselman**“From Rusticus . . . I learned to read carefully and not be satisfied with a rough understanding of the whole, and not to agree too quickly with those who have a lot to say about something.” —MARCUS AURELIUS, MEDITATIONS, 1.7.3 "The first book of Marcus Aurelius's Meditations begins with a catalog of gratitude. He thanks, one by one, the leading influences in his life. One of the people he thanks is Quintus Junius Rusticus, a teacher who developed in his student a love of deep clarity and understanding—a desire to not just stop at the surface when it comes to learning. It was also from Rusticus that Marcus was introduced to Epictetus. In fact, Rusticus loaned Marcus his personal copy of Epictetus's lectures. Marcus clearly wasn't satisfied with just getting the gist of these lectures and didn't simply accept them on his teacher's recommendation. Paul Johnson once joked that Edmund Wilson read books “as though the author was on trial for his life.” That's how Marcus read Epictetus—and when the lessons passed muster, he absorbed them. They became part of his DNA as a human being. He quoted them at length over the course of his life, finding real clarity and strength in words, even amid the immense luxury and power he would come to possess. That's the kind of deep reading and study we need to cultivate as well, which is why we're reading just one page a day instead of a chapter at a time. So we can take the time to read attentively and deeply." - all above quoted words from the credited to the authors**I hope you are considering journaling along with us in January__________________________________________________________________________Go to my WEBSITE "The Leftover Pieces; Rebuilding You" is support central.PS....The FIRST SESSION of the Legacy Writing Project in 2024 has finished & the last one is under way...GET ON THE LIST NOW for the SINGLE DATE start for 2025For a way to leave a Legacy of your child - GO HEREIf you, or someone you know, is struggling ww suicidal thoughts, reach out:CALL 988   OR, you can also TEXT the word "HOME" to 741741 in the USASupport the show

Paul Johnson is the economist who has set the terms of so much political debate over the past few decades in Britain. Having served as Director of the Institute for Fiscal Studies since 2011, his expertise on matters of public spending and global economic trends have provided invaluable insight to the public and policymakers alike. Johnson's column for the Times, as well as his acclaimed Austerity Audit for Radio 4, continue to define public discourse on economic policy and its implications. In October 2024 Johnson brought his expertise to the Intelligence Squared stage to reflect on a year of seismic change and assess the impact of the 2024 general election on the country's economic future. Does Starmer have what it takes to grow the economy? How can Britain hope to compete with innovation in tech and AI on the global stage? What shape should defence spending take in an increasingly volatile world, and how can we begin to tackle domestic issues such as child poverty, cost of living, a crippled NHS and a stubborn housing crisis? Joining Johnson in conversation is BBC News presenter and Royal Correspondent, Jonny Dymond.
