Podcast appearances and mentions of Paul Taylor

Paul Taylor — former executive vice president of the Pew Research Center and author of This Is Getting Old — joins the Chuck Toddcast for a sweeping, data-rich conversation about the generation that has dominated American political life longer than any other: the Baby Boomers. Taylor's framing is striking — voters keep electing presidents born in 1946, and no generation in American history has enjoyed the kind of political hegemony Boomers have held since becoming the largest voting bloc in the 1980s. He argues this dominance has had real consequences as America approaches its 250th birthday in a genuinely dark place: CEO pay has ballooned from a 20-to-1 ratio to 300-to-1 on the Boomers' watch, their decisions have fueled the very populist backlash now reshaping both parties, and — in a deep irony — they spent decades undermining public confidence in the very institutions that benefited them most, helping imprint Trump's "everything is rigged" worldview onto the broader public. Taylor offers a wealth of arresting data points: Jimmy Carter is the only Democrat to win a majority of the Boomer vote in the last 14 elections, and the United States is the only country on earth where a majority of citizens believe their fellow citizens are morally bad — a stunning measure of how thoroughly Americans have turned on one another. The conversation broadens into questions of national identity, demographics, and where the country goes from here. Taylor argues that America is fundamentally a creedal nation rather than a "blood and soil" one, that it has accepted far more immigrants than any other country (though he's candid that too much immigration too fast tends to produce political and cultural backlash, and that the shift toward majority non-white immigration over the past 60 years has been a profound change), and that today's young generation celebrates difference — but a mosaic, he cautions, still needs glue to hold it together. Boomers, he notes, are the last living generation to experience America as something close to a monoculture, and the last to remember segregated America firsthand, which shapes their politics in ways younger generations struggle to understand. Taylor doesn't shy away from the harder verdicts: the generalization that Boomers are a narcissistic generation, he says, is fair. He and Todd explore the demographic time bomb of declining birth rates and an inverting age pyramid (and whether AI and robotics might paradoxically reduce the need for a baby boom), and trace a fascinating through-line from Gary Hart to Graham Platner on how the television era forced politicians to perform their character for the public — and how both Platner and Trump ultimately channel the same anger at a broken system. Taylor closes on a cautiously hopeful note that the next wave of American politics could be a backlash against the current divisiveness, even as he braces for the possibility that his fellow Boomers may not love what they read in his book.

Chuck Todd focuses this episode around a single, almost too-perfect metaphor: the reflecting pool Trump remade, where the paint is now visibly peeling off the concrete and the president is blaming vandals rather than his own shoddy work — a fitting symbol, Chuck argues, for a presidency defined by grandiose self-promotion and an inability to take responsibility for anything. He opens on the Iran fallout, where JD Vance is attending the latest round of negotiations while Marco Rubio is conspicuously MIA, MAGA is openly fracturing over the war and over support for Israel, and Trump's defenders are stuck trying to explain away an obvious capitulation.He warns that the Iranians have now learned to manipulate the markets the same way Trump does — opening and closing the Strait of Hormuz whenever they need cash — and that there will be no positives to come out of this war. From there Chuck pivots into one of his sharpest character indictments yet, arguing Trump is the worst role-model president in American history — a man who behaves like an elementary-school playground bully, and who constantly tries to steal other people's achievements.The contrast crystallized, Chuck says, in the split-screen of Obama's library dedication against Trump's UFC spectacle — the Obamas embodying the story of American meritocracy while Trump embodies inherited advantage squandered. That comparison leads Chuck into a genuinely nuanced reassessment of Obama's legacy: a successful president by traditional measures whose party nonetheless weakened badly on his watch, in part because there was no accountability for the financial crisis, no real effort to set up an heir apparent, and because Obama built a movement around himself rather than the party.He closes on Tuesday's pivotal New York primaries, where he argues the Democratic Socialists of America — led by Zohran Mamdani and AOC — are attempting a genuine takeover of New York Democratic politics, where the long-convenient "progressive" label is about to be torn apart to reveal the socialist faction underneath, and where the central question facing the entire party will be forced into the open: the socialist brand isn't automatically fatal, but it terrifies suburban voters, and a committed faction of supporters is all it takes to hijack a political party.

Most conversations about depression treatment start and end with medication. But what if that starting point is too narrow?Paul Taylor challenges a widely accepted assumption in mental health care that antidepressants are the primary or most effective solution for depression.What he argues is not simplistic and not anti-medication. It's more uncomfortable than that: that for many people, medication alone may not be enough to meaningfully address the deeper drivers of depression.That raises a harder question most people never get asked: if medication isn't the full answer, what is?This is a conversation that sits in the tension between science, treatment norms, and lived experience. And it may change how you think about the way depression is actually treated in practice.You can find Dr Paul at his website: https://www.paultaylor.biz/or at his LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/paultaylor1971/Buy a copy of Dr Paul's new book: https://www.paultaylor.biz/books Use Code "PQPODCAST10" to get 10% off your Lumo Coffee order:https://lumocoffee.com/ Interested in sharing your story?

Is AI taking us into a world where computer programmers, and perhaps the rest of us too, are obsolete? And if so, how quickly is it taking us there? Paul Taylor has been looking at code since the time when computer games didn't even have screens, and in this episode he talks to Tom about the enormous changes generative AI has brought to programming and the world of work in the past couple of years, from the threat of Claude's secretive Mythos to one-person companies, and consider what jobs might be like in the future, if they exist at all.

Un viaje inolvidable por las perlas más suaves y elegantes del smooth jazz, con historias detrás de los artistas que lo hicieron posible Bienvenidos al episodio 75 de **Smooth Jazz Classics**, donde no solo revivimos tracks icónicos, sino que también exploramos un poco del alma detrás de cada uno. Este volumen es un homenaje a la era dorada del smooth jazz (con fuertes raíces en los 90 y 2000s) mezclado con toques más contemporáneos. Aquí encontrarás saxos que susurran emociones, guitarras que acarician como una brisa de atardecer y ritmos que invitan a desconectar del ruido del mundo. Desde clásicos que marcaron generaciones hasta piezas que siguen sonando frescas décadas después, este episodio es ideal para tardes relajadas, noches de luna llena, paseos costeros o simplemente para dejar que la música te envuelva sin prisas. Vamos a sumergirnos en la tracklist con algunas anécdotas y curiosidades de los artistas que dan vida a estas joyas. **Tracklist – Smooth Jazz Classics Vol. 75** - **1994 | Richard Elliot – Candlelight** Richard Elliot, el saxofonista escocés criado en Los Ángeles, comenzó su viaje musical gracias a la colección de discos de su hermana mayor: desde Joni Mitchell y Santana hasta Smokey Robinson y The Temptations. Un momento transformador fue escuchar a Dexter Gordon en vivo; él mismo dijo que pensó “estoy acabado, nunca sonaré como esto”. Pero forjó su propio estilo, fusionando R&B, rock y smooth jazz. Con más de 20 singles Top 10 en el género, tracks como *Candlelight* capturan esa calidez íntima que lo convirtió en un referente indiscutible. - **1997 | Boney James – Sweet Thing** Boney James lanzó este álbum homónimo en 1997, con colaboraciones estelares como Al Jarreau en “I Still Dream”. El título track es un groove seductor que samplea y rinde homenaje a clásicos del R&B/funk. Boney, conocido por su enfoque en melodías accesibles y soulful, giró con Jarreau tras este disco, fortaleciendo su presencia en el smooth jazz de los 90. Un álbum que destila puro feeling nocturno. - **2008 | Warren Hill – La Dolce Vita** El saxofonista alto canadiense Warren Hill firmó con Koch Records para este álbum, cuyo título track fue un #1 en las listas de smooth jazz. Warren es un pionero olvidado por algunos: ¡él organizó el primer Smooth Jazz Cruise del mundo en 2004! Tras años de éxito en cruceros temáticos, volvió a enfocarse en su música. *La Dolce Vita* evoca esa “dulce vida” italiana con elegancia y swing mediterráneo. - **1994 | Joe McBride – Walking In Rhythm** Una pieza groovy y bailable que captura el espíritu upbeat del smooth jazz de mediados de los 90, con influencias de funk y R&B que invitan a mover los pies sutilmente. - **2009 | The Sax Pack – Can't Help Myself** The Sax Pack era un supergrupo de saxofonistas (incluyendo a Steve Cole, Jeff Kashiwa y Kim Waters en diferentes etapas), y este track del álbum *The Pack Is Back* es un hit infeccioso con palmas, teclas y saxos en armonía. Es de esos temas que te hacen decir “no puedo evitarlo”… ¡y terminas moviendo la cabeza al ritmo! - **1999 | Chieli Minucci – Fresh And Clean** Chieli Minucci, líder eterno de Special EFX, lanzó esta pieza fresca y pulida bajo su nombre. Su estilo melódico y world music siempre añade un toque exótico y luminoso; *Fresh And Clean* es como un soplo de aire puro, perfecto para refrescar el alma. - **1997 | Paul Taylor – Pleasure Seeker** Paul Taylor, con su saxo tenor cálido y sensual, entrega aquí un groove irresistible que busca (y encuentra) puro placer auditivo. Un clásico de finales de los 90 que sigue sonando sofisticado y adictivo. - **2010 | Tim Bowman – Let It Shine** Tim Bowman, el guitarrista smooth jazz con raíces gospel (nació en 1959 y debutó en 1996), llevó este track al #1 en las listas Billboard Smooth Jazz. Su sonido limpio y uplifting, con toques inspiradores, refleja su enfoque en música que eleva el espíritu. Tres tracks suyos en este volumen: *Let It Shine*, *Soul Dream* y *Acoustic Rain* muestran su versatilidad entre grooves luminosos y baladas acústicas soñadoras. - **2010 | Tim Bowman – Soul Dream** Una balada soulful que invita a soñar despierto, con la guitarra de Bowman tejiendo melodías que tocan el corazón. - **2010 | Tim Bowman – Acoustic Rain** Imagina lluvia suave cayendo mientras la guitarra acústica fluye… este track es pura serenidad y atmósfera relajante. - **2005 | Nils – Pacific Coast Highway** Nils evoca los paisajes costeros de California con este tema que suena a carretera abierta, sol y mar. Un clásico del smooth jazz instrumental que transporta directamente a un drive eterno por la costa pacífica. - **1999 | Norman Brown – Out'a Nowhere** Norman Brown, influenciado por George Benson, entrega en *Celebration* (su álbum de 1999) este track sorpresivo y alegre que aparece “de la nada” con grooves que unen a la gente. Su meta siempre ha sido “una vida unida a través de la música”, y este tema lo logra con su estilo laid-back y melódico. - **2021 | Mezzoforte – Cruising** La banda islandesa de jazz-funk-fusion Mezzoforte (famosos por “Garden Party” en los 80) regresó con energía en los 2000s y 2020s. *Cruising* es un groove fresco y moderno que cierra el episodio con un toque de jazz-funk actualizado, perfecto para sentir que sigues navegando sin fin. Este episodio 75 es más que una playlist: es un recorrido por artistas que han dedicado décadas a crear música que calma, inspira y conecta. Desde los inicios influenciados por Motown y R&B hasta producciones que siguen dominando las listas smooth jazz, todos estos tracks tienen historias de pasión, evolución y puro amor por el sonido. ¡Dale play, relájate y déjate llevar por 75 episodios de Smooth Jazz Classics! Perfecto para concentrarte, desconectar o simplemente disfrutar de la buena vibra. 🎷🌅✨

What do you get when you mix zero software, a yellow legal pad, 1,000 pushups a day, and a guy who's been building monster custom homes since the 1970s? You get Paul Taylor. In this episode, we finally nail down the hardest man in construction to schedule (seriously—it only took a year). Paul breaks down how he builds some of the largest, cleanest custom homes in California without superintendents, office staff, or apps—just experience, discipline, and an almost unreasonable level of standards. We talk: Why Paul refuses to use construction software (and somehow still beats everyone's schedules) How growing up poor, starting in 6th grade, and learning every trade shaped his no-BS approach Running multi-million-dollar projects solo while serving 30 years in the military The infamous mutiny that made him fire everyone and rebuild his company leaner than ever Why crooked lights, sloppy work, and “good enough” don't exist in his world And yes… the This or That questions get absolutely unhinged If you want motivation, perspective, and a reminder that mastery still matters—this one hits hard.

In this episode of Leading You, Julie Hyde is joined by Dr Paul Taylor for a grounded, practical conversation about a concept most people haven’t heard explained clearly. Hardiness. We talk about resilience constantly, but Paul offers something sharper and more useful. Psycho-physiological hardiness is the ability to grow through stress, not just survive it. It’s about building a mind and body that can handle the real world, not the cushioned version many of us are living in. Paul’s background is as credible as it gets. He’s a former Royal Navy air crew officer, trained in combat survival and resistance to interrogation, and holds postgraduate qualifications across psychology, exercise science, nutrition, and neuroscience. He’s also the author of Death by Comfort and his latest book, The Hardiness Effect. This is a conversation about the cost of modern comfort, the way our stress tolerance is quietly shrinking, and why strength is built through challenge, recovery, and meaningful discomfort. Julie and Paul explore the science behind why the right kind of stress can make us stronger, the difference between resilience and hardiness, and what leaders can do to build greater capacity in themselves, their teams, and the next generation. If you’re heading into 2026 wanting to feel clearer, stronger, and more capable, this episode will challenge your thinking in the best possible way.

Dr. Paul Taylor is a psychophysiologist, host of the popular 'Hardiness' podcast, and the award-winning author of the book 'Death by Comfort'. Paul has also recently completed his PhD in applied psychology. In this conversation, we discuss his new book, 'The Hardiness Effect', and explore his research on how to boost our psychological and physiological hardiness and cognitive fitness. Paul is very evidence- and fact-based, blending academia with real-world experience, grounded in his background as a former Royal British Navy Air Crew Officer trained in anti-submarine warfare, helicopter search and rescue, and combat survival. His work also draws on the Stoics and many other great philosophers of the past.   LINKS   Paul's website www.paultaylor.biz   Book on Amazon The Hardiness Effect: Grow from Stress, Optimise Health, Live Longer   The Mojo Sessions website www.themojosessions.com   The Mojo Sessions on Patreon www.patreon.com/TheMojoSessions Full transcripts of the show (plus time codes) are available on Patreon.   The Mojo Sessions on Facebook www.facebook.com/TheMojoSessions   Gary on LinkedIn www.linkedin.com/in/gary-bertwistle   Gary on Twitter www.twitter.com/GaryBertwistle   The Mojo Sessions on Instagram www.instagram.com/themojosessions   If you like what you hear, we'd be grateful for a review on Apple Podcasts or Spotify. Happy listening!   © 2026 Gary Bertwistle.  All Rights Reserved.  

Is there something wrong with you… or is there something wrong with the way we live?In this episode, I speak to performance coach and psychophysiologist Paul Taylor about how modern life (from ultra-processed food and poor sleep to constant screens and chronic stress) creates the perfect storm for anxiety, depression, burnout and ADHD-like symptoms. We dig into why so much of “mental illness” sits on a spectrum, how lifestyle can mimic or magnify these conditions, and why over-pathologising normal emotions can sometimes make things worse.Paul also breaks down Hardiness, his idea of Resilience 2.0: a practical framework built on control, challenge, commitment and connection. If you feel overwhelmed, stuck or like you're not coping with the pace of life, this conversation will give you a new way to think about mental health with some simple, science-backed ways to start rebuilding your capacity in a world that isn't exactly designed for humans.Timestamps: (00:00) Introduction (01:06) Meet Dr. Paul Taylor(03:16) Understanding Hardiness vs. Resilience(08:26) The Impact of Modern Life on Mental Health(17:19) The Role of Lifestyle in Mental Health(29:42) The Consequences of Poor Sleep and Diet(36:28) Defining True Recovery(37:24) The Connection Between Mental & Physical Health(37:59) Socioeconomic Disparities in Health(42:04) The Impact of Gambling & Government Inaction(44:14) The Influence of Big Food(51:45) Understanding Hardiness & Stoicism(59:59) The Four C's of Resilience(01:03:44) Final Thoughts & Closing QuestionsAccess FREE Move Your Mind training here:https://go.moveyourmind.io/trainingConnect with Nick:Instagram: https://instagram.com/nickbracksWebsite: http://nickbracks.comEmail: contact@nickbracks.comConnect with Paul:Website: https://www.paultaylor.biz/ Hosted on Acast.

In this powerful episode of Unstress Health, Dr Ron Ehrlich welcomes back neuroscientist, exercise physiologist, nutritionist, and author

There's no denying that many modern 'conveniences' are actually making us less resilient, sicker and un happier than ever before. And we've been told for years to avoid stress to help us live better. But in his new book The Hardiness Effect, Dr Paul Taylor says we need to view potential adversity as a challenge, rather than a threat. Instead, we should be embracing stress and using it as fuel to reach our full potential. In this episode, former Royal Navy Officer turned psychophysiologist Dr Paul Taylor outlines some of the ancient wisdom with cutting-edge research that backs The Hardiness Effect, and the steps you can take to embrace challenge, welcome change and boost your physical and mental health.

In a story from ancient Greek philosophy, Hercules faces a choice between two paths: one promising pleasure and ease; the other, hardship and struggle — but also growth and greatness. According to today's guest, this ancient parable is more relevant than ever.Dr. Paul Taylor, a psychophysiologist and the author of the new book The Hardiness Effect, returns to the show to argue that comfort has become our default mode — and it's making us mentally and physically sick. To reclaim health and meaning, we must actively choose the path of arete — a life of effort, engagement, and challenge.Paul first outlines the four traits that define a psychologically hardy person and how we grow by embracing and even relishing discomfort. We then dive into the physiological side of hardiness. We discuss how intentionally seeking stressors can strengthen both body and mind and some of the practices and protocols that lead to optimal health. We end our conversation with what tackling heroic, Herculean labors looks like today.Resources Related to the PodcastPaul's previous appearance on the AoM podcast: Episode #941 — How to Avoid Death by ComfortAoM Podcast #1,087: Why You Need the Good Stress of SocializingAoM Podcast #793: The New Science of Metabolism and Weight Loss with Herman PontzerThe Choice of Hercules AoM podcast on the benefits of sunlight"Don't Die: Eat More Small Fish" by Michael EasterAoM Article: Nature's Prescription — The 20-5-3 Rule for Spending Time OutdoorsNorwegian 4X4 HIIT ProtocolAoM article on Zone 2 CardioOmega-3 testingConnect With Paul TaylorPaul's websiteSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Most people believe in moral facts – that is, there's something about torturing and murdering innocent people that makes it wrong, which goes beyond just a feeling. Yet it's hard to locate morality anywhere in the natural world. For this reason, many have understood God to be the source and arbiter of moral truth. But can morality depend on divine decree – or would that make goodness a matter of celestial whim? In this episode, we'll be discussing the nature of moral obligation with Paul Taylor, doctoral candidate in philosophy at the University of Liverpool. There, as a university teacher, he specialises in ethics, political philosophy, and – our topic for today – philosophy of religion. As the recipient of the Robbins Rotblat Scholarship, Paul's research examines one of the oldest and most perplexing questions in moral philosophy – first posed by Plato over two thousand years ago: does God decide what is moral, or merely report moral facts? In search of the best answer, we've been diving into Paul's unpublished work – pieces that ask not just the big meta-ethical questions, but the practical ones: what are we obliged to do, and why are we obliged to do it. As we'll discover, Taylor's work – and contemporary discussion on the Euthyphro dilemma – pushes us to think again about where morality comes from and whether we, and even God, must answer to it.

The fifth and final part of a series on generational consciousness and conflict. In this episode, we examine the Millennials and Generation Z. Uniquely, generation war today seems to be a conflict over resources more than over values. Is there any basis for this, and what do Millennials actually want? With generational and class conflict seemingly bound together today, we analyse 'Generation Left' and 'Millennial Socialism'. And we ask what the effect of the pandemic may be on the creation of a Gen Z consciousness. Guests include: Paul Taylor, former director, Pew Research Jennie Bristow, senior lecturer in sociology at Canterbury Christ Church University Helen Andrews, senior editor at The American Conservative Clive Martin, journalist who has written for VICE Magazine Josh Glenn, semiotician, author, and publisher of HiLoBrow Jennifer Silva, assistant professor in sociologist, Indiana University Original music by: Jonny Mundey Additional music: Cacti / I Will Be Waiting / courtesy of epidemicsound.com Filthy the Kid / Vampire / courtesy of epidemicsound.com
