Podcasts about politicians

Hello to you listening in Olympia, Washington! Coming to you from Whidbey Island, Washington this is Stories From Women Who Walk with 60 Seconds (and a bit more) for Wednesdays on Whidbey and your host, Diane Wyzga. I am a storyteller of the old school. What do I mean? For over 30 years I've taught (and continue to teach) my clients and students the same thing: “Put down the paper and nobody gets hurt!” Why? Because storytellers have something to say that comes from their aliveness, which is what people most want to feel and connect with. Sharing our stories out loud brings them to light and life, and  encourages us to do what most folks fear more than snakes: stand up and speak up in public.   Story spoken aloud is what we leave of ourselves in another person. A story is an intimate lasting legacy, a permanent inheritance much like a vow or an oath. When we share our stories out loud, we connect with each other, we belong to each other. We might not realize it but we are creating a verbal promise, a vow, an oath of belonging. Think about how many times we've heard  someone say, "Repeat after me: I solemnly swear..." Marrying couples pledge faithfulness through the challenges and joys of marriage. Lawyers uphold the law, maintain client confidentiality, and act as an officer of the court. Doctors focus on ethics, patient care and societal responsibilities. Politicians preserve and defend the Constitution. US military support and defend the Constitution against all enemies. Immigrants becoming US citizens swear the Oath of Allegiance to the United States during a formal naturalization ceremony. From the time we are children in school we recite The Pledge of Allegiance, a patriotic promise of loyalty to the United States flag and the republic for which it stands. What happens when we share our stories out loud? They become real. We say what we mean, we mean what we say. We—and those hearing us—know what we stand for and what we won't stand for. Yes, you might write a story but it needs to be shared out loud to enrich and include the wider world. That's the legacy of the stories we leave in those who have heard them spoken aloud.

Problemistas! Welcome back to another banter-filled episode where we prove that problem-solving is what we do best, even if it takes us a solid chunk of time to actually get to the problems. We're going back in time slightly this week and kick things off with with a Super Bowl discussion, and celebrate the fleeting illusion of "Fake Spring." Then we take a highly professional detour into the internet's favorite story about politicians and soiled pants, and answer some great listener questions.Record your questions here: https://www.therapyjeff.comKeep up with Alex at https://alexandramoskovichpsychotherapy.comJeff's TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@therapyjeffJeff's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/therapyjeffListen to more podcasts like this: https://wavepodcastnetwork.comGet 15% off plus free shipping when you buy two or more pairs of prescription glasses at https://www.warbyparker.com/SOLVED — using our link helps support the show. #WarbyParker #adDISCLAIMER: The insights shared in this podcast are for educational and entertainment purposes only, and should not be seen as a substitute for professional therapy.

In this conversation, Peter Brindley and Leon Byker sit down with Peter Kruger, President of the College of Intensive Care Medicine, to unpack one of the defining issues facing healthcare today: workforce reform.Against the backdrop of national workforce reviews across Australia and New Zealand, the discussion explores the tension between aspiration and reality. Governments want equitable access, rural coverage, sustainable systems, and improved wellbeing for clinicians. Colleges want standards, safety, and meaningful careers. Trainees want jobs. Communities want hospitals. Politicians want solutions.So how do we reconcile all of it?Dr. Kruger reflects on the growing engagement between specialist colleges and government, particularly around workforce maldistribution, rural and regional care, sub-specialization versus generalism, and the moral complexity of relying on internationally trained doctors. The conversation highlights a key truth: intensive care is a hospital-based, system-dependent specialty. You cannot simply “place a doctor” in a community without the supporting infrastructure.The episode also tackles uncomfortable but necessary questions:Can there be a universal standard for ICU access across vastly different hospital settings?Should governments mandate rural placements—or can communities be strengthened from within?What role should nurse practitioners and multidisciplinary teams play?Are we protecting turf, or protecting patients?And how do we better support doctors across the entire career pipeline—from medical student to senior intensivist winding down night shifts?Throughout, the tone is candid but diplomatic. There's recognition that workforce reform is complex, long-standing, and resistant to simple solutions. Yet there is also optimism: trust, transparency, and genuine partnership between colleges and government may offer a way forward.At its core, this episode is about purpose. The shared mission between clinicians, colleges, and governments is delivering safe, effective care to the community. The challenge lies in doing so while balancing standards, sustainability, and humanity.

The Anti Whiteness, Anti Christian, Pro Zionism argument is laid out. Whichever side you align with is quickly becoming the most important value of your life.Israel First, not America First, seems to be the direction that all the money and powerful elites as well as Politicians and Celebrities are going. To be a White Straight Christian Conservative Man is now considered to be an insult and lowest source of humanity War is supposedly imminent, all in the name of Israel and the Jewish Zionist Elitism. Nothing good will come out of it for the US, and we'll also get the pleasure of paying the bill for it with taxpayer money. Fuck This ShitUntil Next Time…

Good morning, America, and welcome to the only show reckless enough to record live during a playoff-intensity hockey game before most of the country has located its coffee.This week, we hit the microphones at dawn because somewhere in Milan, the schedule makers decided that U.S. versus Canada should be settled at an hour normally reserved for bakers and dairy cows. So yes, the game is on in the background. Yes, it's chippy. And yes, you may hear spontaneous reactions that are either patriotic or deeply unhealthy. Possibly both.From Olympic controversy and curling drama to tainted gold medals and athletic oversharing, we begin on the ice and then glide straight into the strange modern obsession with identification. Birth certificates. Real ID. The SAVE Act. Politicians who somehow travel internationally while claiming documents are impossible to find. If that sounds improbable, buckle up.Then we detour through Seattle sports economics, millionaire taxes, the ghost of the SuperSonics, and why professional teams flee faster than common sense in an election year.It's hockey. It's politics. It's technology. It's snow-covered New York streets and two forms of ID.In other words, it's another perfectly normal episode of What The Frock.

There was a time, not so long ago, when the fate of the planet hinged on the stern glare of a Scandinavian teenager.World leaders trembled. Journalists genuflected. Schoolchildren skipped algebra to chant in the streets. And at the center of this eco-theatrical hurricane stood Greta Thunberg, who, despite not yet being old enough to rent a car, was apparently qualified to repossess Western civilization.She was the Left's Joan of Arc, except instead of hearing voices she heard carbon emissions. Every time someone started a lawnmower, somewhere a cable news producer lit a candle in her honor. Politicians who could not balance a municipal budget suddenly discovered they could forecast global temperatures in the year 2087. And corporations, terrified of being labeled climate criminals, lined up to sponsor the apocalypse.And then, almost imperceptibly at first, the roar quieted.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

"72% of Americans say they hate big corporations—including Republicans." — Charles DerberIt's not just the right that's reacting against liberal democracy. Some progressives are also embracing populism. Charles Derber, longtime professor of sociology at Boston College, has a new book called Fighting Oligarchy: How Positive Populism Can Reclaim America. Rather than a dirty word, he argues, populism is an inevitable political response to the brutality of today's economy. We're in a disguised depression, he fears. Sixty percent of Americans say they feel one paycheck away from oblivion.72% of Americans say they hate big corporations, Derber reminds us. Not just Democrats—Republicans too. Such hostility to large capitalist enterprises thus represents a kind of political supermajority. And Derber, a man of the left, sees this as fertile ground for what he calls positive populism. It's a politics that connects economic grievance to democratic renewal, the way the 1890s Populists did, the way the New Deal did, the way Martin Luther King did when he insisted you couldn't fight for civil rights without fighting against war and capitalism.But can positive populism coexist with American capitalism? Derber says no. American capitalism is too oligarchic, too individualistic, too hostile to collective identity. It's not compatible with positive populism and thus, in Derber's mind at least, not compatible with survival. But that doesn't involve a Soviet-style elimination of the free market. It means something more like Northern European social democracy: strong unions, universal healthcare, a government that actually intervenes on behalf of ordinary people.The trap, Derber warns, is nostalgia for the pre-Trump era. Going back to the supposedly "consensus" years of Bush, Obama and Clinton is a circuitous way of getting to another Trump. Today's street demonstrators—from Minneapolis to Los Angeles to New York City—understand this. According to Derber, demonstrations against ICE and MAGA are associating the immigration crackdowns with corporate oligarchy, and authoritarian political power with the economic power of big capitalism.And so positive populism will prevail. At least according to Charles Derber. Fight the oligarchy! Five Takeaways●      We're in a Disguised Depression: Sixty percent of Americans say they feel one paycheck away from disaster. This isn't radical rhetoric—it's mainstream public opinion.●      Hatred of Corporations Is Bipartisan: 72-73% of Americans—including Republicans—say they hate big corporations. Derber sees this as fertile ground for positive populism.●      Positive Populism Has Precedents: The 1890s Populists united white and Black workers. The New Deal gave ordinary people a stake. MLK linked civil rights to economics. These are the models.●      Going Back to Pre-Trump Is a Trap: If Democrats return to Bush-Obama-Clinton centrism, they'll get another Trump. The resistance understands this. The establishment doesn't.●      American Capitalism Is Incompatible: Positive populism can't coexist with American-style oligarchic capitalism. It needs transformation—not elimination of markets, but European-style social democracy. About the GuestCharles Derber is a professor of sociology at Boston College and author of more than twenty books, including Fighting Oligarchy: How Positive Populism Can Reclaim America and Bonfire: American Sociocide, Broken Relationships, and the Quest for Democracy. He is an old friend of Keen on America.ReferencesPeople mentioned:●      Pepper Culpepper is an Oxford political scientist whose book Billionaire Backlash argues that backlash against billionaires could strengthen democracy.●      Hélène Landemore is a Yale political scientist whose book Politics without Politicians makes the case for direct democracy.●      William Jennings Bryan ran for President four times on a populist platform but, Derber argues, sold out the movement's anti-corporate thrust.●      Martin Luther King Jr. argued that civil rights couldn't be separated from economic justice and opposition to war—a form of positive populism.●      Bernie Sanders and AOC are examples of positive populists within the Democratic Party today.Historical references:●      The 1890s Populist Movement united farmers and workers against the first Gilded Age oligarchy. Lawrence Goodwyn called it "the democratic moment."●      The New Deal represented a form of positive populism with significant government intervention in markets and encouragement of union organizing.About Keen On AmericaNobody asks more awkward questions than the Anglo-American writer and filmmaker Andrew Keen. In Keen On America, Andrew brings his pointed Transatlantic wit to making sense of the United States—hosting daily interviews about the history and future of this now venerable Republic.

Since the last South African Grand Prix was raced at Kyalami in 1993, the country has made several attempts to bring Formula One back. The circuit has been upgraded to FIA Grade 2 standards, and various promoters, including the Kyalami owners and international partners, have tried to secure a deal with Formula One Management. Most recently, Sports Minister Gayton McKenzie conceded that the 2027 race “will not take place now,” but said government remained committed to landing a future Grand Prix. Anton Roux, a former member of motorsport's governing body, the FIA Senate, and a trustee of the FIA Foundation, says South Africa's real obstacles lie elsewhere, in strained ties with Washington and a lack of political commitment at home. Roux told BizNews that South Africa has not done the diplomatic groundwork needed to convince Liberty Media, the American company that owns Formula One. His advice to the sports minister was blunt: start by backing, and showing up at, the international motorsport events South Africa already hosts, to prove the country can deliver an event that other African nations, like Rwanda, are now openly keen to host. But first, the interview dives into a question many motorheads are asking: Why are electric vehicles so ugly? Is Italian design the answer?

Today's Headlines: Billionaire retail mogul Les Wexner testified before Congress about his ties to Jeffrey Epstein — but instead of appearing on Capitol Hill, lawmakers traveled to his Ohio mansion, where the 88-year-old was deposed with family members present. Notably, no Republicans on the House Oversight Committee showed up. Wexner, who once granted Epstein power of attorney, said he was “naive, gullible, and foolish” and claimed he was conned, despite building a multibillion-dollar empire. It wasn't the only billionaire hot seat of the day. Mark Zuckerberg testified in a landmark trial against Meta over allegations the company knowingly made its platforms addictive and harmful to children. The case could influence more than 1,500 pending social media addiction lawsuits. Meanwhile, The New York Times reported Meta has set aside $65 million to back state-level politicians friendly to the AI industry through new super PACs in Illinois and Texas — timing that feels… strategic. In federal agency cleanup news, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration removed a webpage warning against bogus autism “treatments” like chlorine dioxide and raw camel milk, calling it routine housekeeping. On the foreign policy front, Donald Trump met with advisers to discuss Iran, as mixed signals emerge from nuclear talks in Geneva and two U.S. aircraft carriers sit in the Mediterranean. The administration also plans to withdraw roughly 1,000 U.S. troops from Syria over the next two months, though officials say the move is “conditions based.” Meanwhile, a potential U.S. arms sale to Taiwan is reportedly in limbo ahead of Trump's planned meeting with Xi Jinping in Beijing. Back home, New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani announced the city will resume clearing homeless encampments following at least 19 deaths during a recent cold snap, with outreach led by homeless services rather than police.

The silence surrounding Stacey Plaskett's lawsuit by Epstein survivors exposes the staggering hypocrisy of both lawmakers and the legacy media. Politicians who pound the table about justice and accountability fall mute when the accusations land inside their own chamber. Journalists who dissect every lurid detail of Epstein's life suddenly find no headlines when survivors point to a sitting member of Congress. This selective outrage isn't oversight—it's complicity. Survivors are abandoned the moment their stories threaten insiders, and the system shows once again that accountability is conditional, not principled.That selective accountability corrodes credibility and turns justice into theater. By politicizing the scandal, lawmakers use survivors as pawns while letting the real villains—Epstein's network of enablers—slip quietly back into the shadows. The result is a collapse of trust: citizens see investigations as performance, predators learn power protects power, and survivors are betrayed all over again. Epstein may be dead and Maxwell imprisoned, but the system that shielded them is alive and well—sustained by cowardice, silence, and the hypocrisy of institutions that pretend to defend justice while practicing selective blindness.to contact  me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

Are dumb phones actually the solution to our anxieties, or are they a $400 scam built on a moral panic?~~~~~~~~~~My work is 100% self-funded and this series is not backed by any advertisers or tech giants. If you value my reporting, please, please support my channel: Join the Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/cw/taylorlorenz     Subscribe to my Substack:  https://www.usermag.co  ~~~~~~~~~~~~Over the past few years, a massive industry has emerged around dumb phones and the concept of logging off. From $400 minimalist dumb phones to influencers selling digital detox courses, logging off has become big business. Schools are banning phones. Politicians are blaming screen time. Media outlets are calling Gen Z “addicted.”But is ditching your smartphone actually the answer? In this video, I sat down with WIRED journalist Elana Klein to unpack the rise of the logging-off movement. We discuss how reasonable concerns over screen time have metastasized into a consumer movement selling $400 minimalist dumb phones for millions in profit. We also dive deep into the anti-smartphone moral panic , which is heavily pushed by reactionary politicians and legacy media.

In this episode, we discuss the Netherlands' proposed 36% tax on unrealized capital gains, unpacking what it means to tax wealth that exists only on paper and how such a policy could force asset sales, distort investment behavior, and reshape long-term incentives for savers and entrepreneurs. For our Foolishness of the Week, we turn to North Carolina, where a local official distinguished himself as perhaps the dumbest sheriff in America. We then welcome Dave Greene for an extended conversation on health insurance, exploring how risk pooling actually works, why medical pricing feels arbitrary, how regulation and the Affordable Care Act altered incentives for insurers and patients, and why price opacity and third-party payment continue to drive costs higher across the system. 00:00 Introduction and Overview 00:31 Words and Numbers Backstage & Listener Shoutouts 04:13 The Netherlands' 36% Tax on Unrealized Gains 08:20 Who Can Afford Risk Under a Wealth-Style Tax? 12:24 Florida Snow & Strange Weather 13:39 Foolishness of the Week: The Mecklenburg Sheriff 18:54 Dave Greene Introduction: Health Insurance Insider Perspective 21:36 Why Health Insurance Feels So Frustrating 24:05 Is the System Designed to Make You Give Up? 27:32 Why Health Care Prices Stay Hidden 34:13 The $1,600 MRI vs. $200 MRI Problem 41:38 Negotiating Medical Bills (Yes, You Can) 43:36 The Affordable Care Act and Incentive Distortions 47:24 Health Insurance Profit Margins Explained 50:45 1950s Health Care vs. Today's Innovation 53:48 Why Insurance Companies Get the Blame 57:26 Medicare vs. Private Insurance Subsidies 01:01:35 Guest Outro and Closing Thoughts Learn more about your ad choices.

Mississippi State music history professor Dr. Ryan Ross joins Josh to talk about his journey—from thinking he could never support Trump, to voting for him in the last election, and now back to not being able to support him anymore. They get into why they both voted for Trump in the first place, what made them feel like they had to, and the buyer's remorse that came after. They also talk about how a lot of traditional conservatives and independents feel the same way—like there's no real home left in either of the two major parties.  They have both become so terrible that neither one deserves their vote or support. Ryan and Josh also discuss what it's like being a conservative professor in a very woke, liberal academic world. Ryan shares some of the struggles he's had just trying to teach music history in a straight forward historically accurate way.

The silence surrounding Stacey Plaskett's lawsuit by Epstein survivors exposes the staggering hypocrisy of both lawmakers and the legacy media. Politicians who pound the table about justice and accountability fall mute when the accusations land inside their own chamber. Journalists who dissect every lurid detail of Epstein's life suddenly find no headlines when survivors point to a sitting member of Congress. This selective outrage isn't oversight—it's complicity. Survivors are abandoned the moment their stories threaten insiders, and the system shows once again that accountability is conditional, not principled.That selective accountability corrodes credibility and turns justice into theater. By politicizing the scandal, lawmakers use survivors as pawns while letting the real villains—Epstein's network of enablers—slip quietly back into the shadows. The result is a collapse of trust: citizens see investigations as performance, predators learn power protects power, and survivors are betrayed all over again. Epstein may be dead and Maxwell imprisoned, but the system that shielded them is alive and well—sustained by cowardice, silence, and the hypocrisy of institutions that pretend to defend justice while practicing selective blindness.to contact  me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

For years, many white American Christians have claimed that Christianity is under attack. Politicians echo it. Media personalities repeat it. Entire campaigns are built on it. But what if the greatest test facing the Church in America isn't surviving persecution — but resisting the temptation to wield power against the vulnerable?

On Friday's Mark Levin Show, President Trump has likely made up his mind to act on Iran, with only military tactics possibly remaining as the question. Iran will never change their ways; there mindset is not about deals. Whether it's ​the ​Marxist or ​the ​Islamist ​ideology, ​whether ​it's ​our ​belief ​system, - it's all ​about ​power, ​the ​proper ​use ​of ​it ​and ​the ​improper ​use ​of ​it. Islamism seeks total control over mind, body, society, and government through Sharia, unlike the Judeo-Christian focus on individual liberty. Islam has not undergone an enlightenment against theocracy, and dominant Muslim groups in the West support Islamism, which rejects interpretive diversity and often prioritizes political agendas, including antisemitism and anti-Israel motives. Islamists aim to conquer rather than coexist, as shown by sectarian violence, terrorism (Hamas, Al Qaeda, etc.), and Iran's deceptive pursuit of nuclear weapons despite negotiations. Later, the Democrat Party truly hates America and they're at war with America. That's why the Islamists and the Marxists are now part of their coalition, just as decades ago the segregationists and the slavers were part of their coalition. It's all about power for this party. Democrats hate native-born Americans and seek to replace them with illegal immigrants. This is because many immigrants do not speak English, lack understanding of American civil liberties, the Declaration of Independence, or the Constitution, making them easily manipulated through propaganda. Politicians promise them benefits while attacking productive native citizens. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Hélène Landemore is a political scientist at Yale who studies democracy. She has a radical idea for fixing politics: what if we replaced career politicians with citizen assemblies, filled with people chosen by lottery? In this episode, Hélène and Adam discuss the history of this idea, tracing back to Ancient Greece and the birth of democracy, as well as recent examples of countries and states that have tried this bold method of governance. Hélène responds to some common questions and concerns about citizen assemblies, and Adam breaks down some evidence supporting the notion that ordinary citizens may be more fit to serve and lead than professional politicians.Host & GuestAdam Grant (Instagram: @adamgrant | LinkedIn: @adammgrant | Website: https://adamgrant.net/)Hélène Landemore (Website: https://www.helenelandemore.com/)LinksPolitics Without Politicians: The Case for Citizen Rule - https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0593713982For the full text transcript, visit ted.com/podcasts/worklife/worklife-with-adam-grant-transcriptsLearn more about our flagship conference happening this April at attend.ted.com/podcast Hosted on Acast.
