Fin de semana histórico, gigantesco, inconmensurable para el automovilismo español: Álex Palou ha ganado las 500 millas de Indianápolis, una de las carreras más grandes de todo el calendario del motorsport. El Podcast Técnica Fórmula 1 no puede empezar por otro lado, es la noticia más grande, a pesar de que no haya trascendido en los medios como merecía. Estrategia, carrera y victoria memorables. La carrera del catalán fue memorable, como todas esta temporada, de una inteligencia enorme, conservando, ahorrando gasolina, pero siempre en el grupo de delante. Muy de destacar cómo hizo el penúltimo stint y cómo pasó a Ericsson y aguantó hasta el final. No tenía el coche más rápido y aún así su último stint fue impresionante, manteniendo a raya a Marcus Ericsson y aprovechándose de los doblados para tener más velocidad y más rebufo. Nos hizo sufrir toda la carrera, pero ocurrió todo como sospechaban en el Podcast Técnica Fórmula 1 y así lo habían comentado: Palou estuvo agazapado y, cuando el león saltó a la palestra, ya nadie pudo pararle. La verdad es que ha sido lo más grande, lo más vistoso y espectacular del fin de semana, pero poco ha trascendido a los medios, que se centraron en el homenaje (más que merecido) a Nadal, no haciéndose eco (o casi) de la hazaña del de Ganassi… qué poco se conoce este deporte en España y qué poco se valora una victoria tan importante como la del domingo pasado. Mónaco, en el lado opuesto de la balanza. Ese mismo domingo tuvimos también el GP de Mónaco que fue un desastre y un tostón bastante destacable. Las dos paradas no aportaron nada, entre otras cosas, porque los propios pilotos y equipos reventaron el espectáculo rodando hasta 5s más lentos que un ritmo de carrera medio normal. Después se quejarán cuando nos quiten Mónaco, pero se lo están buscando. Lo más destacado del Gran Premio de Mónaco. Al final, que parece poco importante pero realmente da una nueva perspectiva a la temporada, la victoria se la llevó Norris. Y se la llevó saliendo (y aguantando más que bien) dese la Pole. Una Pole que, hay que añadir, se la llevó marcando un nuevo récord de vuelta en Mónaco, casi nada. Esta victoria le sitúa 2º en el Campeonato a tan sólo 3 puntos de su compañero, Oscar Piastri, y demostrando que no está “tan perdido” como nos quieren hacer, sino que está muy fuerte, sobre todo en circuitos callejeros, y ha ganado en dos carreras con una alta carga emocional de cara a la lucha por el título: Australia y Mónaco. Y, aparte de destacar el aburrimiento que fue la estrategia que nos hicieron sufrir los equipos “gracias” a la normativa de las dos paradas, a destacar también - y a comentar - la sanción a Russell, por pasar intencionadamente a Albon saltándose la chicane… por fin algo que le dio vida a la carrera.

Segundo episodio de la semana del Podcast Técnica Fórmula 1 donde nos preparan para uno de los eventos únicos de la temporada de Fórmula 1: el Gran Premio de Mónaco, cargado de dificultades (en la pista) y de glamour (fuera de ella). Pero no sólo de Fórmula 1 vive el aficionado y este año tenemos por delante unas 500 Millas de Indianápolis que prometen ser infartantes, sobre todo para los aficionados españoles. Mónaco: la importancia de la Pole. En un circuito callejero, lento y muy corto, como es el de Mónaco, la Pole es vital,… aunque dijimos lo mismo la semana pasada en Ímola y resultó ser una carrera más abierta de lo esperado. Algo a lo que contribuirá la nueva norma de las dos paradas obligatorias. Si nos fijamos en las características del circuito, desde el punto de vista de Brembo, el fabricante de sistemas de frenado, en una escala de dificultad del 1 al 5, obtiene una puntuación de 3. Y es que, a pesar de contar con 15 zonas de frenada por vuelta, solo 2 están clasificadas como «altas», 6 como «medias» y 7 como «ligeras». Destaca la curva 10 como la más exigente, con una desaceleración máxima de 4,5 g y una fuerza de frenado de 145 kg. En cuanto a los horarios, tendremos un fin de semana tradicional, con dos sesiones de libres el viernes (a las 13:30 y a las 17h) y otra el sábado (a las 12:30h). La clasificación, como en la semana precedente, tendrá lugar a las 16:00h; y la carrera dará comienzo a las 15h del domingo. Rally de Portugal. Como siempre, el Rally de Portugal fue un espectáculo. Por los tramos, recorrido y ambiente, con Sebastian Ogier logrando su séptima victoria en la prueba, aunque Tanak fue el más rápido y perdió la victoria por problemas mecánicos. Si revisamos los tiempos de las etapas y la clasificación general, encontramos a Elfyn Evans como líder del campeonato con 118 puntos, seguido por Kalle Rovanperä (recuperándose magníficamente de su mal inicio de temporada) y Sebastian Ogier. Un pleno para Toyota, pero con los Hyundai más que fuertes. Indy 500: clasificación sorprendente y nervios en la espera. La clasificación de las 500 Millas de Indianápolis, que también tuvo lugar el pasado fin de semana, fue de las más emocionantes de los últimos años. De lo más sorprendente, el rookie Schwartzman logrando la pole. Palou, gran favorito por su rendimiento en la categoría, clasificó finalmente en sexto lugar, lo que lo posiciona bien para la carrera debido a su ritmo constante en entrenamientos, en los que termina primero una vez tras otra. Aunque para sorpresa, de nuevo, la polémica con Penske, donde Power y Newgarden fueron descalificados por irregularidades técnicas, siendo relegados al final de la parrilla, lo que generó controversia debido a la relación de Penske con el circuito (que le pertenece) y la categoría. Ya es la segunda vez que ocurre esto y el jefe no debe estar nada contento con los técnicos. Para los partidarios de Palou, una buena noticia, pues son dos grandes rivales para lograr la victoria en las 500 que están casi neutralizados. Aunque, sospechamos, Palou seguramente no quiera “ayudas” de ese tipo, máxime con su nivel de fortaleza (mental) este año. Esperemos verle superar su asignatura pendiente… ¡y con nota!

It is finally time for the Greatest Spectacle in Racing, and our resident open wheeler Conor Daly will be rolling off P11 this coming Sunday. He joins co-host Chase Holden to break down all of the action from practice week and qualifying, which saw many surprises and breath-taking crashes. No surprise of course was bigger than rookie Robert Shwartzman putting his Prema entry on the pole. But, the news that Josef Newgarden and Will Power had failed tech and were being penalized also rocked the paddock. Conor gives listeners a detailed look at how his final qualifying attempt unfolded, which originally placed him in 13th, just a few tenths away from locking into the Fast 12. He also explains how on edge the cars are this year, and the major differences between being in qualifying trim and race trim.Pole winner Robert Shwartman joins the show to reflect on his historic feat of becoming the first rookie to capture P1 since 1983. He talks listeners through making the Fast 12 and the feeling he had laying down a perfect lap that held up for the top speed of the day. Robert explains that after the hardship he's faced in the Formula One ranks, it was incredible to feel the support from the crowd at Indianapolis. Conor and Chase also get to know Robert, the person outside of the race car, as they discuss his interest in hip hop music and how he is an aspiring musician himself. The guys chat about Prema team members like Ryan Briscoe being an asset and how Robert's car is feeling going into the big race on Sunday.

The guys jump into the best sports week of the year in Indianapolis by talking about Robert Shwartzman's epic Pole Day upset, more Team Penske violations, and what to expect from the 9th (!) edition of the heated Pacers-Knicks rivalry.

Assistant Coach Byron Grubman returns to the Bench to team up with Matt for this Tako-hosted game. In this episode, Matt thinks Tako is both handsome and in his twenties (he is only one of those), we learn that there's only one Pole in Boston, Tako debuts a new quarter style in secret because Josh won't listen to this episode, we try and rhyme words in a Southern accent and accidentally invent Texas ballers Manute B'all and Y'all Ming, we evade chupacabras, and we wonder if it counts as plagiarism if no one saw the original.

Our planet’s north magnetic pole is on a journey across the top of the world. But it’s slowing down. Over the past five years, it’s put on the brakes – its position has changed much more slowly than over the previous couple of decades. Earth’s magnetic field acts like a giant bar magnet, with north and south poles. The poles aren’t tied to the geographic poles – they wander. The north magnetic pole was discovered in 1831. At the time, it was centered over northwestern Canada. It moved farther south, then made a big turn, toward Siberia. In all, it’s moved almost 700 miles since it was discovered. For a couple of decades, it was moving at more than 30 miles per year. More recently, though, it’s slowed to about 22 miles a year – the biggest slowdown ever recorded. Scientists are trying to understand why. The magnetic field is generated by motions of molten rock in Earth’s outer core. Those motions produce electric currents, which create the magnetic field. So the changing position and rate of motion are telling us something about what’s going on deep inside our planet. The change in the magnetic pole has important practical implications as well as scientific ones. GPS, aircraft, the military, and others use magnetic north for navigation. So maps of Earth’s magnetic field are updated every few years to show the change in the pole’s location – keeping everyone headed in the right direction. Script by Damond Benningfield

Send us a textWhat does it take to transform a struggling state? According to Brad Kohler, it requires someone who isn't afraid to fight—literally. The former UFC fighter, world champion, and successful entrepreneur brings his competitive spirit to politics as he campaigns to become Minnesota's next governor."Minnesota needs someone with a spine who isn't afraid of opposition," Kohler declares in this candid, no-holds-barred conversation. With a background spanning from wrestling championships in Ohio to winning three world titles in MMA, Kohler has now set his sights on what he calls his toughest fight yet: restoring Minnesota to its former glory.Kohler's economic vision is radically simple—eliminate business taxes completely. "We're going to put up red flares to build our economy and bring business people back to Minnesota," he explains, contrasting his approach with current leadership. His plan includes cutting what he describes as 20% waste from the state's budget, implementing toll roads, reopening the Iron Range for mineral extraction, and expanding airports to create a quarter-million new jobs within five years.On social issues, Kohler pulls no punches. He advocates strongly for Title IX protections for female athletes, opposes transgender participation in women's sports, and promises day-one action on immigration. "The money goes to our people—the people who work for it here in Minnesota are the ones who deserve it," he states emphatically when discussing his priorities.Perhaps most striking is Kohler's positioning as a political outsider unbeholden to special interests. "I will not owe one person when I get in office," he promises, rejecting PAC money and emphasizing his independence. "I'm just one of those guys who doesn't quit. Everything I've ever done, I've reached the pinnacle."Whether you're concerned about crime, education, taxes, or Minnesota's economic future, this conversation offers a fascinating glimpse into an unconventional candidate's bold vision.

Imagine um mundo onde os efeitos emocionais das narrativas são considerados mais importantes do que os fatos em si. Esse é o fundamento das fake news, que se desenvolvem e adquirem uma proporção desastrosa. Não por sua veracidade, mas pelos efeitos que geram nas pessoas. Para esta situação foi criado o neologismo PÓS-VERDADE. A professora e voluntária de Nova Acrópole em Águas Claras-DF, KARLA LACOMBE, comenta filosoficamente esse fenômeno - tão importante para lançarmos luz no que acontece no mundo hoje. PÓS-VERDADE é um neologismo que descreve a situação na qual, na hora de criar e modelar a opinião pública, os fatos objetivos têm menos influência que os apelos às emoções e às crenças pessoais. Na cultura política, se denomina política da pós-verdade (ou política pós-factual) aquela na qual o debate se enquadra em apelos emocionais, desconectando-se dos detalhes da política pública, e pela reiterada afirmação de pontos de discussão nos quais as réplicas fáticas — os fatos — são ignoradas. A pós-verdade resume-se como a ideia em que “algo que aparente ser verdade é mais importante que a própria verdade”. Para alguns autores, a pós-verdade é simplesmente mentira, fraude ou falsidade encobertas com o termo politicamente correto de "pós-verdade", que ocultaria a tradicional propaganda política.

Ron and Pete trade places this week, with Pete in the role of Road Warrior, checking in from Orlando, Florida. That's why this week's pod recorded during their original Thursday night slot.With both the Cubs and Cardinals nearing Ron's critical 40-game mark, it's only a little too early for the guys to engage in a spirited debate about the performance of both teams. Ron shares his cautious optimism about the Cardinals, who have clawed their way back to .500, while Elliot is excited about the Cubs' surprising success despite MLB's most difficult month.The conversation takes a humorous turn as the trio discusses the arbitrariness of Ron's 40-game rule, and they reflect on the potential futures of key players like Nolan Arenado and Matthew Liberatore. As the discussion unfolds, they ponder the implications of recent player performances – yes, you, Jordan Walker – and speculate on the trade deadline strategies for both teams."Ron's Soccer Minute" returns, with Ron lamenting City's recent struggles in MLS, highlighted by their recent disappointing performances. The episode wraps up with a lively discussion about the latest season of Andor, as Ron and Elliot attempt to convince Pete to give the show a chance, promising that it's a must-watch for any Star Wars fan.Check out the livestream on YouTube, Rumble, Facebook, or X.Follow us on X and Instagram.

Acabó el fin de semana al sprint en Miami y, aunque no nos gustara mucho el circuito ni el formato del fin de semana, estuvo bastante bien. Desde el Podcast Técnica Fórmula 1 nos alegramos de que, al menos, hubiera muchos líos en las dos carreras, polémicas, grandes adelantamientos, condiciones mixtas y muchos de los ingredientes de un gran fin de semana de carreras. No es oro todo lo que reluce Bien es cierto, que buena parte de la carrera del domingo fue bastante lenta y la estrategia tampoco ayudó a mejorar el espectáculo; ni la llegada de la lluvia, que no ocurrió nunca. Pero a mí el fin de semana me dejó buen sabor de boca, la verdad. Cuarta victoria de Piastri en seis carreras, líder sólido del Mundial: ¿cómo es la situación en McLaren? Porque el año pasado Zak Brown hablaba de que comenzaba la era de Norris, pero está siendo, por ahora (aunque es pronto, sin duda), la de Piastri. En cualquier caso, si hay que sacar conclusiones después de 6 pruebas: ¿ahora sí asusta McLaren, con altas temperaturas en pista? La Sprint, la carrera del sábado. Al ser un fin de semana con formato Sprint, el viernes mismo tuvimos acción de la buena y vaya si nos divertimos, sobre todo cuando vimos a Kimi Antonelli sacarse la Pole para Mercedes. Tanto él como su padre estaban que no se lo creían,… aunque Toto Wolff sí que estaba contento con lo que esperaba de su pupilo. Valoración de la primera pole de Antonelli: ¿es el resultado del crecimiento sin presión de un gran talento? Sin embargo, el sábado le superó su falta de experiencia: en la primera curva ya había perdido la posición, de una forma un poco “poco limpia”, pero la había perdido y no hubo sanciones por parte de los comisarios. La carrera, con Safety Car incluido por choque de Alonso, la ganó Norris. Domingo, la lluvia que no llegó. Ya en la noche (en Europa) del sábado pudimos disfrutar de la clasificación para la carrera larga, la del domingo. Y esta vez la pole se la llevó Verstappen, que saca de su coche - que parece más un coche de clasificación que de carrera - lo que no tiene. Aunque su compañero tampoco lo hizo mal. Pero, centrándonos en el domingo, tuvimos mucha acción… en la primera parte de la carrera. En la salida, Verstappen 1º, echa fuera a Norris, que pierde posiciones (6º). Antonelli se coloca 2º. Pero la posición le dura poco: Piastri lo pasa y, desde la vuelta 8 a la 14, tenemos una preciosa lucha Piastri-Verstappen, con defensas monumentales por parte de Verstappen con un coche, objetivamente, peor. También tuvimos una gran remontada de Norris de 6º, y pasando a los Mercedes, hasta llegar a 2º, pero a mucha distancia de Piastri. También hay que destacar lo que le costó a Norris pasar a Verstappen (entre las vueltas 15 y 18) frente a su compañero de equipo. Está claro que es rápido, pero le faltan muchas cosas (salidas el año pasado, adelantamientos éste, errores), y así le va a costar trabajo convertirse en Campeón del Mundo, por mucho que tenga el mejor coche - que también tiene su compañero de equipo y que no perdona.

Mark Mann-Bryans and Ben Hunt sit down to discuss the weekend so far for the 2025 Miami Grand Prix from the Hard Rock Stadium in Florida. It's been a hectic weekend so far, with Kimi Antonelli making history as the sports youngest ever pole-sitter in any format. Ben and Mark discuss the incredible achievement at length and talk about the vindication it may provide inside Mercedes. The Sprint is discussed at length as well, with Lando Norris taking advantage of a late Safety Car to beat Oscar Piastri out of the pits in a chaotic wet to dry race, delayed by a wet circuit. There's also a chat about Max Verstappen finishing last after receiving a 10-second time penalty for an unsafe release in the pits. The conflicting emotions of Lewis Hamilton come to the forefront as well after taking advantage of an early tyre change to finish third in the Sprint, only to be eliminated in Q2 for Grand Prix qualifying, with old rival Verstappen on pole. The pair preview tonight's Grand Prix and who could win the race to Turn 1. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Potřeboval jsem to pro chystaný román Pole šťastných náhod. Zjistil jsem, že ano, stát se to může. Ale úplně jinak, než jak se to za čtyři desetiletí vykreslilo.

The stars Kochab and Pherkad serve several roles. They’re part of the body of Ursa Minor, the little bear. They form the outer edge of the bowl of the Little Dipper. And they’re “guardians of the pole” – they circle around Polaris, the star that marks the north celestial pole. Both stars are giants – they’ve puffed up at the end of the prime phase of life. Kochab is about 50 times the Sun’s diameter, and 450 times its brightness. Pherkad looks fainter than Kochab, but only because it’s almost four times farther. In reality, it’s more than twice as bright. The stars are so big and bright because they’ve exhausted their original supply of nuclear fuel. That’s triggered changes in the cores of the stars that have caused them to puff up. In ages past, both stars were much closer to the pole than they are today. In fact, Kochab was the closest bright star to the pole for a millennium. It was the best pole star about 3100 years ago. But it wasn’t nearly as good a marker as Polaris – it never got closer than about seven degrees, which is almost the width of a fist held at arm’s length. Thanks to an effect called precession, it’s moved away from the pole. So Kochab and Pherkad serve as guardians of the pole. The stars stand to the right of Polaris at nightfall, and wheel high above the Pole Star later on. Kochab is the second-brightest star of the little bear, shining just a touch fainter than Polaris.

It's official. The American Dream is dead. And it's been resurrected in Europe where, according to the FT columnist Simon Kuper, disillusioned Americans should relocate. Compared with the United States, Kuper argues, Europe offers the three key metrics of a 21st century good life: “four years more longevity, higher self-reported happiness and less than half the carbon emissions per person”. So where exactly to move? The Paris based Kuper believes that his city is the most beautiful in Europe. He's also partial to Madrid, which offers Europe's sunniest lifestyle. And even London, in spite of all its post Brexit gloom, Kuper promises, offers American exiles the promise of a better life than the miserable existence which they now have to eek out in the United States. Five Takeaways* Quality of Life.:Kuper believes European quality of life surpasses America's for the average person, with Europeans living longer, having better physical health, and experiencing less extreme political polarization.* Democratic Europe vs Aristocratic America: While the wealthy can achieve greater fortunes in America, Kuper argues that Europeans in the "bottom 99%" live longer and healthier lives than their American counterparts.* Guns, Anxiety and the Threat of Violence: Political polarization in America creates more anxiety than in Europe, partly because Americans might be armed and because religion makes people hold their views more fervently.* MAGA Madness: Kuper sees Trump as more extreme than European right-wing leaders like Italy's Meloni, who governs as "relatively pro-European" and "pro-Ukrainian."* It's not just a Trump thing. Kuper believes America's declining international credibility will persist even after Trump leaves office, as Europeans will fear another "America First" president could follow any moderate administration.Full TranscriptAndrew Keen: Hello everybody. It's Monday, April the 21st, 2025. This conversation actually might go out tomorrow on the 22nd. Nonetheless, the headlines of the Financial Times, the world's most global economic newspaper, are miserable from an American point of view. US stocks and the dollar are sinking again as Donald Trump renews his attack on the Fed chair Jay Powell. Meanwhile Trump is also attacking the universities and many other bastions of civilization at least according to the FT's political columnist Gideon Rachman. For another FT journalist, my guest today Simon Kuper has been on the show many times before. All this bad news about America suggests that for Americans it's time to move to Europe. Simon is joining us from Paris, which Paris is that in Europe Simon?Simon Kuper: I was walking around today and thinking it has probably never in its history looked as good as it does now. It really is a fabulous city, especially when the sun shines.Andrew Keen: Nice of them where I am in San Francisco.Simon Kuper: I always used to like San Francisco, but I knew it before every house costs $15 million.Andrew Keen: Well, I'm not sure that's entirely true, but maybe there's some truth. Paris isn't exactly cheap either, is it? Certainly where you live.Simon Kuper: Cheaper than San Francisco, so I did for this article that you mentioned, I did some research on house prices and certainly central Paris is one of the most expensive areas in the European Union, but still considerably cheaper than cities like New York and San Francisco. A friend of mine who lives here told me that if she moved to New York, she would move from central Paris to for the same price living in some very, very distant suburb of New York City.Andrew Keen: Your column this week, Americans, it's time to move to Europe. You obviously wrote with a degree of relish. Is this Europe's revenge on America that it's now time to reverse the brain drain from Europe to America? Now it's from America to Europe.Simon Kuper: I mean, I don't see it as revenge. I'm a generally pro-American person by inclination and I even married an American and have children who are American as well as being French and British. So when I went to the US as firstly as a child, age 10, 11, I was in sixth grade in California. I thought it was the most advanced, wonderful place in the world and the sunshine and there was nowhere nice than California. And then I went as a student in my early 20s. And again, I thought this was the early 90s. This is the country of the future. It's so much more advanced than Europe. And they have this new kind of wise technocratic government that is going to make things even better. And it was the beginning of a big American boom of the 90s when I think American quality of life reached its peak, that life expectancy was reached, that was then declined a long time after the late 90s. So my impressions in the past were always extremely good, but no longer. The last 20 years visiting the US I've never really felt this is a society where ordinary people can have as good a life as in Europe.Andrew Keen: When you say ordinary people, I mean, you're not an ordinary person. And I'm guessing most of the people you and your wife certainly isn't ordinary. She's a well known writer. In fact, she's written on France and the United States and parenthood, very well known, you are well known. What do you mean by ordinary people?Simon Kuper: Yeah, I mean, it's not entirely about me. Amazingly, I am not so egomaniac as to draw conclusions on some matters just looking at my own situation. What I wrote about the US is that if you're in the 1% in the US and you are pursuing great wealth in finance or tech and you have a genuine shot at it, you will achieve wealth that you can't really achieve in Europe. You know, the top end of the US is much higher than in Europe. Still not necessarily true that your life will be better. So even rich Americans live shorter than rich Europeans. But OK, so the 1% America really offers greater expansion opportunities than Europe does. Anywhere below that, the Europeans in the bottom 99%, let's say, they live longer than their American equivalents. They are less fat, their bodies function better because they walk more, because they're not being bombarded by processed food in the same way. Although we have political polarization here, it's not as extreme as in the US. Where I quote a European friend of mine who lives in the American South. He says he sometimes doesn't go out of his house for days at a time because he says meeting Trump supporters makes him quite anxious.Andrew Keen: Where does he live? I saw that paragraph in the piece, you said he doesn't, and I'm quoting him, a European friend of mine who lives in the American South sometimes doesn't leave his house for days on end so as to avoid running into Trump supporters. Where does he live?Simon Kuper: He lives, let me say he lives in Georgia, he lives in the state of Georgia.Andrew Keen: Well, is that Atlanta? I mean, Atlanta is a large town, lots of anti-Trump sentiment there. Whereabouts in Georgia?Simon Kuper: He doesn't live in Atlanta, but I also don't want to specify exactly where he lives because he's entitled.Andrew Keen: In case you get started, but in all seriousness, Simon, isn't this a bit exaggerated? I mean, I'm sure there are some of your friends in Paris don't go outside the fancy center because they might run into fans of Marine Le Pen. What's the difference?Simon Kuper: I think that polarization creates more anxiety in the US and is more strongly felt for a couple of reasons. One is that because people might be armed in America, that gives an edge to any kind of disagreement that isn't here in Europe. And secondly, because religion is more of a factor in American life, people hold their views more strongly, more fervently, then. So I think there's a seriousness and edge to the American polarization that isn't quite the same as here. And the third reason I think polarization is worse is movement is more extreme even than European far-right movements. So my colleague John Byrne Murdoch at the Financial Times has mapped this, that Republican views from issues from climate to the role of the state are really off the charts. There's no European party coeval to them. So for example, the far-right party in France, the Rassemblement National, doesn't deny climate change in the way that Trump does.Andrew Keen: So, how does that contextualize Le Pen or Maloney or even the Hungarian neo-authoritarians for whom a lot of Trump supporters went to Budapest to learn what he did in order to implement Trump 2.0?Simon Kuper: Yeah, I think Orban, in terms of his creating an authoritarian society where the universities have been reined in, where the courts have been rained in, in that sense is a model for Trump. His friendliness with Putin is more of a model for Trump. Meloni and Le Pen, although I do not support them in any way, are not quite there. And so Meloni in Italy is in a coalition and is governing as somebody relatively pro-European. She's pro-Ukrainian, she's pro-NATO. So although, you know, she and Trump seem to have a good relationship, she is nowhere near as extreme as Trump. And you don't see anyone in Europe who's proposing these kinds of tariffs that Trump has. So I think that the, I would call it the craziness or the extremism of MAGA, doesn't really have comparisons. I mean, Orban, because he leads a small country, he has to be a bit more savvy and aware of what, for example, Brussels will wear. So he pushes Brussels, but he also needs money from Brussels. So, he reigns himself in, whereas with Trump, it's hard to see much restraint operating.Andrew Keen: I wonder if you're leading American liberals on a little bit, Simon. You suggested it's time to come to Europe, but Americans in particular aren't welcome, so to speak, with open arms, certainly from where you're talking from in Paris. And I know a lot of Americans who have come to Europe, London, Paris, elsewhere, and really struggled to make friends. Would, for Americans who are seriously thinking of leaving Trump's America, what kind of welcome are they gonna get in Europe?Simon Kuper: I mean, it's true that I haven't seen anti-Americanism as strong as this in my, probably in my lifetime. It might have been like this during the Vietnam War, but I was a child, I don't remember. So there is enormous antipathy to, let's say, to Trumpism. So two, I had two visiting Irish people, I had lunch with them on Friday, who both work in the US, and they said, somebody shouted at them on the street, Americans go home. Which I'd never heard, honestly, in Paris. And they shouted back, we're not American, which is a defense that doesn't work if you are American. So that is not nice. But my sense of Americans who live here is that the presumption of French people is always that if you're an American who lives here, you're not a Trumpist. Just like 20 years ago, if you are an American lives here you're not a supporter of George W. Bush. So there is a great amount of awareness that there are Americans and Americans that actually the most critical response I heard to my article was from Europeans. So I got a lot of Americans saying, yeah, yeah. I agree. I want to get out of here. I heard quite a lot of Europeans say, for God's sake, don't encourage them all to come here because they'll drive up prices and so on, which you can already see elements of, and particularly in Barcelona or in Venice, basically almost nobody lives in Venice except which Americans now, but in Barcelona where.Andrew Keen: Only rich Americans in Venice, no other rich people.Simon Kuper: It has a particular appeal to no Russians. No, no one from the gulf. There must be some there must be something. They're not many Venetians.Andrew Keen: What about the historical context, Simon? In all seriousness, you know, Americans have, of course, fled the United States in the past. One thinks of James Baldwin fleeing the Jim Crow South. Could the Americans now who were leaving the universities, Tim Schneider, for example, has already fled to Canada, as Jason Stanley has as well, another scholar of fascism. Is there stuff that American intellectuals, liberals, academics can bring to Europe that you guys currently don't have? Or are intellectuals coming to Europe from the US? Is it really like shipping coal, so to speak, to Newcastle?Simon Kuper: We need them desperately. I mean, as you know, since 1933, there has been a brain drain of the best European intellectuals in enormous numbers to the United States. So in 1933, the best university system in the world was Germany. If you measure by number of Nobel prizes, one that's demolished in a month, a lot of those people end up years later, especially in the US. And so you get the new school in New York is a center. And people like Adorno end up, I think, in Los Angeles, which must be very confusing. And American universities, you get the American combination. The USP, what's it called, the unique selling point, is you have size, you have wealth, you have freedom of inquiry, which China doesn't have, and you have immigration. So you bring in the best brains. And so Europe lost its intellectuals. You have very wealthy universities, partly because of the role of donors in America. So, you know, if you're a professor at Stanford or Columbia, I think the average salary is somewhere over $300,000 for professors at the top universities. In Europe, there's nothing like that. Those people would at least have to halve their salary. And so, yeah, for Europeans, this is a unique opportunity to get some of the world's leading brains back. At cut price because they would have to take a big salary cut, but many of them are desperate to do it. I mean, if your lab has been defunded by the government, or if the government doesn't believe in your research into climate or vaccines, or just if you're in the humanities and the government is very hostile to it, or, if you write on the history of race. And that is illegal now in some southern states where I think teaching they call it structural racism or there's this American phrase about racism that is now banned in some states that the government won't fund it, then you think, well, I'll take that pay cost and go back to Europe. Because I'm talking going back, I think the first people to take the offer are going to be the many, many top Europeans who work at American universities.Andrew Keen: You mentioned at the end of Europe essay, the end of the American dream. You're quoting Trump, of course, ironically. But the essay is also about the end of the America dream, perhaps the rebirth or initial birth of the European dream. To what extent is the American dream, in your view, and you touched on this earlier, Simon, dependent on the great minds of Europe coming to America, particularly during and after the, as a response to the rise of Nazism, Hannah Arendt, for example, even people like Aldous Huxley, who came to Hollywood in the 1930s. Do you think that the American dream itself is in part dependent on European intellectuals like Arendt and Huxley, even Ayn Rand, who not necessarily the most popular figure on the left, but certainly very influential in her ideas about capitalism and freedom, who came of course from Russia.Simon Kuper: I mean, I think the average American wouldn't care if Ayn Rand or Hannah Arendt had gone to Australia instead. That's not their dream. I think their American dream has always been about the idea of social mobility and building a wealthy life for yourself and your family from nothing. Now almost all studies of social ability say that it's now very low in the US. It's lower than in most of Europe. Especially Northern Europe and Scandinavia have great social mobility. So if you're born in the lower, say, 10% or 20% in Denmark, you have a much better chance of rising to the top of society than if you were born at the bottom 10%, 20% in the US. So America is not very good for social mobility anymore. I think that the brains that helped the American economy most were people working in different forms of tech research. And especially for the federal government. So the biggest funder of science in the last 80 years or so, I mean, the Manhattan Project and on has been the US federal government, biggest in the world. And the thing is you can't eat atom bombs, but what they also produce is research that becomes hugely transformative in civilian life and in civilian industries. So GPS or famously the internet come out of research that's done within the federal government with a kind of vague defense angle. And so I think those are the brains that have made America richer. And then of course, the number of immigrants who found companies, and you see this in tech, is much higher than the number percentage of native born Americans who do. And a famous example of that is Elon Musk.Andrew Keen: Yeah, and you were on the show just before Christmas in response to your piece about Musk, Thiel and the shadow of apartheid in South Africa. So I'm guessing you don't want the Musks and Thiels. They won't be welcome in Europe, will they?Simon Kuper: I don't think they want to go. I mean, if you want to create a tech company, you want very deep capital markets. You want venture capital firms that are happy to bet a few billion on you. And a very good place to do that, the best place in the world by far, is Silicon Valley. And so a French friend of mine said he was at a reception in San Francisco, surrounded by many, many top French engineers who all work for Silicon Valley firms, and he thought, what would it take them to come back? He didn't have an answer. Now the answer might be, maybe, well, Donald Trump could persuade them to leave. But they want to keep issuing visas for those kinds of people. I mean, the thing is that what we're seeing with Chinese AI breakthroughs in what was called DeepSeek. Also in overtaking Tesla on electric cars suggests that maybe, you know, the cutting edge of innovation is moving from Silicon Valley after nearly 100 years to China. This is not my field of expertise at all. But you know the French economist Thomas Filippon has written about how the American economy has become quite undynamic because it's been taken over by monopolies. So you can't start another Google, you can start another Amazon. And you can't build a rival to Facebook because these companies control of the market and as Facebook did with WhatsApp or Instagram, they'll just buy you up. And so you get quite a much more static tech scene than 30 years ago when really, you know, inventions, great inventions are being made in Silicon Valley all the time. Now you get a few big companies that are the same for a very long period.Andrew Keen: Well, of course, you also have OpenAI, which is a startup, but that's another conversation.Simon Kuper: Yeah, the arguments in AI is that maybe China can do it better.Andrew Keen: Can be. I don't know. Well, it has, so to speak, Simon, the light bulb gone off in Europe on all this on all these issues. Mario Draghi month or two ago came out. Was it a white paper or report suggesting that Europe needed to get its innovation act together that there wasn't enough investment or capital? Are senior people within the EU like Draghi waking up to the reality of this historical opportunity to seize back economic power, not just cultural and political.Simon Kuper: I mean, Draghi doesn't have a post anymore, as far as I'm aware. I mean of course he was the brilliant governor of the European Central Bank. But that report did have a big impact, didn't it? It had a big impact. I think a lot of people thought, yeah, this is all true. We should spend enormous fortunes and borrow enormous fortunes to create a massive tech scene and build our own defense industries and so on. But they're not going to do it. It's the kind of report that you write when you don't have a position of power and you say, this is what we should do. And the people in positions of power say, oh, but it's really complicated to do it. So they don't do it, so no, they're very, there's not really, we've been massively overtaken and left behind on tech by the US and China. And there doesn't seem to be any impetus, serious impetus to build anything on that scale to invest that kind of money government led or private sector led in European tech scene. So yeah, if you're in tech. Maybe you should be going to Shanghai, but you probably should not be going to Europe. So, and this is a problem because China and the US make our future and we use their cloud servers. You know, we could build a search engine, but we can't liberate ourselves from the cloud service. Defense is a different matter where, you know, Draghi said we should become independent. And because Trump is now European governments believe Trump is hostile to us on defense, hostile to Ukraine and more broadly to Europe, there I think will be a very quick move to build a much bigger European defense sector so we don't have to buy for example American planes which they where they can switch off the operating systems if they feel like it.Andrew Keen: You live in Paris. You work for the FT, or one of the papers you work for is the FT a British paper. Where does Britain stand here? So many influential Brits, of course, went to America, particularly in the 20th century. Everyone from Alfred Hitchcock to Christopher Hitchens, all adding enormous value like Arendt and Ayn Rand. Is Britain, when you talk of Europe, are you still in the back of your mind thinking of Britain, or is it? An island somehow floating or stuck between America, the end of the American dream and the beginning of the European dream. In a way, are you suggesting that Brits should come to Europe as well?Simon Kuper: I think Britain is floating quite rapidly towards Europe because in a world where you have three military superpowers that are quite predatory and are not interested in alliances, the US, China and Russia, the smaller countries, and Britain is a smaller country and has realized since Brexit that it is a small country, the small countries just need to ally. And, you know, are you going to trust an alliance with Trump? A man who is not interested in the fates of other countries and breaks his word, or would you rather have an alliance with the Europeans who share far more of your values? And I think the Labor government in the UK has quietly decided that, I know that it has decided that on economic issues, it's always going to prioritize aligning with Europe, for example, aligning food standards with Europe so that we can sell my food. They can sell us our food without any checks because we've accepted all their standards, not with the US. So in any choice between, you know, now there's talk of a potential US-UK trade deal, do we align our standards with the US. Or Europe? It's always going to be Europe first. And on defense, you have two European defense powers that are these middle powers, France and the UK. Without the UK, there isn't really a European defense alliance. And that is what is gonna be needed now because there's a big NATO summit in June, where I think it's going to become patently obvious to everyone, the US isn't really a member of NATO anymore. And so then you're gonna move towards a post US NATO. And if the UK is not in it, well, it looks very, very weak indeed. And if UK is alone, that's quite a scary position to be in in this world. So yeah, I see a UK that is not gonna rejoin the European Union anytime soon. But is more and more going to ally itself, is already aligning itself with Europe.Andrew Keen: As the worm turned, I mean, Trump has been in power 100 days, supposedly is limited to the next four years, although he's talking about running for a third term. Can America reverse itself in your view?Simon Kuper: I think it will be very hard whatever Trump does for other countries to trust him again. And I also think that after Trump goes, which as you say may not be in 2028, but after he goes and if you get say a Biden or Obama style president who flies to Europe and says it's all over, we're friends again. Now the Europeans are going to think. But you know, it's very, very likely that in four years time, you will be replaced by another America first of some kind. So we cannot build a long term alliance with the US. So for example, we cannot do long term deals to buy Americans weapons systems, because maybe there's a president that we like, but they'll be succeeded by a president who terrifies us quite likely. So, there is now, it seems to me, instability built in for the very long term into... America has a potential ally. It's you just can't rely on this anymore. Even should Trump go.Andrew Keen: You talk about Europe as one place, which, of course, geographically it is, but lots of observers have noted the existence, it goes without saying, of many Europe's, particularly the difference between Eastern and Western Europe.Simon Kuper: I've looked at that myself, yes.Andrew Keen: And you've probably written essays on this as well. Eastern Europe is Poland, perhaps, Czech Republic, even Hungary in an odd way. They're much more like the United States, much more interested perhaps in economic wealth than in the other metrics that you write about in your essay. Is there more than one Europe, Simon? And for Americans who are thinking of coming to Europe, should it be? Warsaw, Prague, Paris, Madrid.Simon Kuper: These are all great cities, so it depends what you like. I mean, I don't know if they're more individualistic societies. I would doubt that. All European countries, I think, could be described as social democracies. So there is a welfare state that provides people with health and education in a way that you don't quite have in the United States. And then the opposite, the taxes are higher. The opportunities to get extremely wealthy are lower here. I think the big difference is that there is a part of Europe for whom Russia is an existential threat. And that's especially Poland, the Baltics, Romania. And there's a part of Europe, France, Britain, Spain, for whom Russia is really quite a long way away. So they're not that bothered about it. They're not interested in spending a lot on defense or sending troops potentially to die there because they see Russia as not their problem. I would see that as a big divide. In terms of wealth, I mean, it's equalizing. So the average Pole outside London is now, I think, as well off or better than the average Britain. So the average Pole is now as well as the average person outside London. London, of course, is still.Andrew Keen: This is the Poles in the UK or the Poles.Simon Kuper: The Poles in Poland. So the Poles who came to the UK 20 years ago did so because the UK was then much richer. That's now gone. And so a lot of Poles and even Romanians are returning because economic opportunities in Poland, especially, are just as good as in the West. So there has been a little bit of a growing together of the two halves of the continent. Where would you live? I mean, my personal experience, having spent a year in Madrid, it's the nicest city in the world. Right, it's good. Yeah, nice cities to live in, I like living in big cities, so of big cities it's the best. Spanish quality of life. If you earn more than the average Spaniard, I think the average income, including everyone wage earners, pensioners, students, is only about $20,000. So Spaniards have a problem with not having enough income. So if you're over about $20000, and in Madrid probably quite a bit more than that, then it's a wonderful life. And I think, and Spaniards live about five years longer than Americans now. They live to about age 84. It's a lovely climate, lovely people. So that would be my personal top recommendation. But if you like a great city, Paris is the greatest city in the European Union. London's a great, you know, it's kind of bustling. These are the two bustling world cities of Europe, London and Paris. I think if you can earn an American salary, maybe through working remotely and live in the Mediterranean somewhere, you have the best deal in the world because Mediterranean prices are low, Mediterranean culture, life is unbeatable. So that would be my general recommendation.Andrew Keen: Finally, Simon, being very generous with your time, I'm sure you'd much rather be outside in Paris in what you call the greatest city in the EU. You talk in the piece about three metrics that show that it's time to move to Europe, housing, education, sorry, longevity, happiness and the environment. Are there any metrics at all now to stay in the United States?Simon Kuper: I mean, if you look at people's incomes in the US they're considerably higher, of course, your purchasing power for a lot of things is less. So I think the big purchasing power advantage Americans have until the tariffs was consumer goods. So if you want to buy a great television set, it's better to do that out of an American income than out of a Spanish income, but if you want the purchasing power to send your kids to university, to get healthcare. Than to be guaranteed a decent pension, then Europe is a better place. So even though you're earning more money in the US, you can't buy a lot of stuff. If you wanna go to a nice restaurant and have a good meal, the value for money will be better in Europe. So I suppose if you wanna be extremely wealthy and you have a good shot at that because a lot people overestimate their chance of great wealth. Then America is a better bet than Europe. Beyond that, I find it hard to right now adduce reasons. I mean, it's odd because like the Brexiteers in the UK, Trump is attacking some of the things that really did make America great, such as this trading system that you can get very, very cheap goods in the United States, but also the great universities. So. I would have been much more positive about the idea of America a year ago, but even then I would've said the average person lives better over here.Andrew Keen: Well, there you have it. Simon Cooper says to Americans, it's time to move to Europe. The American dream has ended, perhaps the beginning of the European dream. Very provocative. Simon, we'll get you back on the show.

Hollow Earth is a theory proposing that the planet Earth is entirely hollow or contains a substantial interior space. The crux of the hollow earth theory is that the earth is a shell with walls about 800 miles thick. In the polar regions there are holes 1400 miles across, with edges that curve smoothly from the outside of the shell around to the inside. A sea or surface traveler could proceed over an edge of the hole, like an ant crawling over the lip of a coffee mug from the outside to the inside, and not be aware that he was actually entering the interior of the earth. Dr. Raymond Bernard or Walter Siegmeister (we'll talk about him later) explains that the holes have never been seen from the air because pilots are fooled by their compasses into believing that they are crossing the pole, when they are actually following the hole's "magnetic rim". Thus aircraft never really fly over the geographic poles, which naturally mark the centers of the holes themselves. As irrefutable proof of his claim, he cites Admiral Byrd's statement, "I'd like to see that land beyond the Pole. That area beyond the Pole is the Great Unknown."Some conspiracy theorists believe the Earth is hollow—and that superior 'alien' humans, Vikings and Nazis live inside.
