It's a bit easy to be negative these days. Times are tough and talk is cheap, and I like to manage expectations and not get too carried away with rhetoric. But today I'm going to praise the Government and be positive. The surprise announcement that free trade talks between New Zealand and India will start next month was great news. Like PPPs, it won't be a game changer short term, but it is a step in the right direction. The welcome given to Christopher Luxon was quite a thing. Flags and billboards all over town. A rowdy welcome from folk dancers and then the news that finally we will negotiate. Our recent battle in cricket is top of Indian minds and they know that we are already good friends. The benefits for both countries are large. For too long our need for dairy to be part of a comprehensive deal has held talks back. But India is still a way away from needing us. They have a huge but poorly performing herd of cows, but they are still self-sufficient with estimates of local production falling short in 25 years' time and not tomorrow. They will need us in the future. The Chinese free trade deal saw dairy finally included 20 years after our first agreement. This free trade thing is a long conversation. But there's a lot more to India than dairy. Space is a no brainer. India is already aiming for the moon, and we'd love to help. IT is another sector that we can benefit from India's expertise to help our productivity. And with all eyes on Chinese expansion in the Indo-pacific region there is many reasons for a closer relationship. If tensions with China increase, our manufacturers will need India's cheap labour. And on China, we need to have India on our side the same way we walk the tightrope with America on pacific security and a relationship with China. While we will always recognize dairy as a cornerstone to our competitiveness in global trade, we have often spoken of the need for diversification in our export markets. This deal offers a chance to grow and become broader based. And with a bit of luck dairy will join the ride as years go by. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Salve, camaradas!No Manhã Brasil desta terça (25), ancorado pelo jornalista Mauro Lopes, os temas centrais são: 1) O pronunciamento do presidente Lula na noite desta segunda para fazer propaganda do Pé-de-Meia e Farmácia popular em dois minutos e 18 segundos. Novamente, o presidente e o governo perdem a oportunidade de travar o combate político mobilizando as ferramentas de comunicação que as leis colocam a seu dispor, para fazer uma agenda de fundo eleitoral; 2) o redesenho global que Trump está impondo ao planeta, deixando de lado as instâncias globais e multilaterais do pós-guerra para fazer negociações bilaterais a partir de uma posição de força. Com Putin, ele caminha para encerrar a guerra na Ucrânia e dividir o espólio do país com os russos. 3) Na Bolsa de Valores em São Paulo, Haddad anunciou que o governo federal irá providenciar um ajuste legal que fará chover PPPs em todo o território nacional, tornando o governo Lula campeão das privatizações em todos os temposOs convidados do Manhã são:José Genoino, ex-presidente do PT, ex-deputado federalThiago Aguiar, doutor em Sociologia (USP) e pesquisador de pós-doutorado no IFCH/Unicamp

The Infrastructure Minister maintains that more public-private partnerships won't mean more privatisation of assets. Chris Bishop's unveiled a new framework for the PPPs to encourage the government to work with developers to build key projects. He told Mike Hosking concerns of privatisation are unfounded. Bishop says while projects would be built by private developers, ownership would remain with the Crown. He says that it's just project delivery method and a procurement method, but at the end of the day it sits on the Government's balance sheet.

The UK Agri-Tech Centre conducted a feasibility study with Kent fruit growers, Rumwood Green, and crop protection advisers, Landseer Ltd., on the project - 'Apple Orchard Health: Evaluating Hyperspectral Imagery for Disease Detection and Biostimulant Efficacy' - with funding from the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (DEFRA) and UKRI Transforming Food Production Challenge. UK fruit growers are facing a major challenge, exacerbated by the diminishing availability of plant protection products (PPPs) controlling crop disease. The phasing out of traditional PPPs, driven by environmental concerns, has added complexity to this issue. Despite the utilisation of PPPs, UK apple growers experience an annual crop loss of approximately 10-12% due to apple scab, a fungal disease. Without PPPs, this figure would skyrocket to 70-80%. However, there is a promising solution on the horizon by using biostimulants. These are natural substances or micro-organisms that can enhance the natural defences and overall health of the plants when applied to them. One significant challenge of biostimulants is assessing their effectiveness as they operate distinctively from conventional PPPs. Biostimulants serve as preventative measures rather than curative, necessitating timely application before visible disease symptoms emerge. Accurately timing their use is difficult, as the critical phase of scab infection remains invisible to the naked eye. The project aim was to address the challenge of evaluating the effectiveness of biostimulants and timing their usage, by utilising advanced technologies such as hyperspectral cameras and drones. Hyperspectral sensors can capture and analyse a wide range of frequencies of light very finely, which is like being able to accurately identify and measure hundreds of colours outside of what the human eye can see. This provides a detailed and precise characterisation of objects or materials based on the unique way they reflect light, as a spectral fingerprint. By identifying these unique spectral fingerprints for crop diseases, like apple scab, and also determining which can indicate the efficacy of biostimulants, in future, we can develop an affordable camera for growers to be able to detect these fingerprints. This camera will serve as an early warning system, helping prevent disease spread, enhancing crop yield and operational efficiency, and reducing reliance on traditional PPPs. Eliot Dixon, Head of Robotics and AI at the UK Agri-Tech Centre, said, "This was a fast-paced proof of concept project designed to provide evidence for both the efficacy of biostimulant in apple scab control, but also in spectral imaging as a method for detecting apple scab. "For the UK Agri-Tech Centre, this project highlights how our spectral imaging capabilities can be used in product development for both remote sensing and plant protection products. We are very pleased to have successfully shown how lab-based spectral imaging can be successfully transferred to a commercial farm." Michael Parker, Coldstore and Compliance Manager at Rumwood Green Farm Ltd said, "This trial has been very challenging to reproduce results in the field similar to previous in-lab testing of detecting early signs of scab using specific wavelengths. "Despite the challenges, we are a step closer towards early scab detection using the hyperspectral camera. The positive results shown of the biostimulant used will hopefully encourage more growers to use biostimulants as part of their scab control, not only relying on conventional pesticide programs." Stephen Tully, Director at Landseer, said, "With disease control becoming increasingly challenging due to changes in plant protection regulations and unpredictable weather, this project aimed to validate the efficacy of biostimulants to support their routine use and investigate the feasibility of an affordable early detection system for apple scab. "This feasibility study has delivered encouraging results...

The letter from the energy industry yesterday got less coverage than the call last week for a bipartisan approach to big infrastructure. So I am not sure what that means.  Did the media not notice the letter? Or did they notice the letter and not think promoting a bipartisan approach was useful? Or had we given up, given last week's call fell apart the moment it got uttered publicly?  A 30-year plan, a new agency, and the first thing that happened was Chris Hipkins pooh-poohed it, citing the treatment they got on light rail and cycle bridges.  I think at least part of the lesson is that it's easy to call for a bipartisan approach, which is what the energy users are asking for.  Indeed offering a few starters for ten, which is what they do in their letter, isn't that hard either. It's the next bit where things fall apart.  Is it possible we have become a divided country?  We cite America and its blocked and broken system as the premier example of a country being unable to get anything done, but are we any different?  Last week it was infrastructure, this week it's energy. And what's the outcome?  When it comes to infrastructure you've got a party that cancelled roads and built cycleways and bus lanes, and the other party who cancelled the bike paths and will build the roads.  You've got a party that liked to pay for projects through debt vs a party that likes PPPs and congestion charging.  When it comes to the energy crisis one party that thought a $16b dollar lake was an answer and another that thinks gas should be looked for and coal burned.  The question, which is where a new agency or more cohesive approach would come in, is where is the middle ground?  Where is the commonality?  The trouble with this country, like America, is we come at it from not only two different sides, but with a very large gap to close and a long-held belief that we are right, and the other guys are out to lunch.  But unlike America, where you find moderate versions of Democrats and Republicans in both parties, here you are not allowed to think outside your party's mandates, far less actually vote against them.  So, the conclusion would appear the twain shall never meet, because we are black and white, and the answer isn't. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

What purpose do they serve? Considerations when adopting a PEP The value of research, self-education, and analysis in considering a PEP Key Takeaways:Understanding the roles and responsibilities involved in running a retirement plan is more important than ever. Benefit managers must carefully consider whether to handle tasks internally or outsource them to experts. In this context, Pooled Employer Plans (PEPs) have emerged as a viable solution for employers. PEPs are essentially 401(k) or 403(b) plans that combine unassociated employers, while Pooled Plan Providers (PPPs) serve as the ultimate fiduciaries managing and overseeing these plans.Adopting a PEP may require employers to relinquish some control over plan design and fund lineup. PEP providers offer varying degrees of flexibility and customization options for plan design and investment lineups.When considering a PEP, employers should conduct thorough research, should consider engaging in an RFI or RFP process, and evaluate multiple providers to determine the best fit for their needs. Advisors, too, should educate themselves about PEPs to better serve their clients and avoid losing them to competitors who offer PEP solutions.“A PEP… is for any employer who's looking to offload and outsource as much of the operations and the fiduciary responsibilities as possible. Can they ever get rid of it 100%? No. Because they do have to select which PEP they're going into and that in itself is a fiduciary duty.” - Mike DiCensoConnect with Mike DiCenso:Website: https://www.myretirementace.com/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/michael-dicenso-a479b16/ Connect with Eric Dyson: Website: https://90northllc.com/Phone: 940-248-4800Email: contact@90northllc.com LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/401kguy/

Key Takeaways: Mainstream vs Alternative vs Independent: Recent controversies in alternative media signal a broader shift towards decentralization and fragmentation across various sectors, highlighted by disputes involving key personalities and companies. Evolution of Public-Private Partnerships: The traditional public-private partnerships are evolving into complex civic partnerships where media and technology blur lines between civilian and intelligence operations. How to Navigate New Media Landscape: Analyze the core-message and economic models. Article advocates for "Value For Value" to maintain ethical integrity and avoid the pitfalls of traditional monetization strategies. What is up with all the drama in Alternative Media recently? I was inspired to start writing this piece a few weeks ago when longtime popular researcher Amazing Polly (@FringeViews) started making public accusations against a well known alternative health company, The Wellness Company (TWC). TWC have partnerships with many content creators and personalities in the Alternative Media space (some of whom I consider friends). While the initial concerns about TWC brought up by Amazing Polly are entirely valid (connections between founder Foster Coulson and Erik Prince [Blackwater]), the subsequent events that unfolded beyond this particular situation screams of a much larger sociological and technological phenomenon worth exploring for any independently thinking truth seeker. While the TWC situation disrupted the perceived unity amidst the crowd of "awake" people perusing the Internet, the drama spilled into the heart of Alternative Media when Candace Owens (@RealCandaceO) left the Daily Wire. This event speaks to how far we are on the operation to split apart the Judeo-Christian ethic that the founders used as core principles of our country . The drama that broke out concerning Steven Crowder (@scrowder) (divorce, ex-employee) only adds fuel to the fact that the conservative superstars who rose to popularity in the last decade, are now your main characters in the reality TV show called Alternative Media. We've called it AMIC (Alternative Media Industrial Complex). There are other names who have similar names for the sentiment. We all know that Mainstream Legacy Media is pretty much dead at this point, at least in the format it was delivered in the past. But the question will be, can the Alternative Media exist without them? @Axios published an article titled "Shards of Glass: Inside Media's 12 Splintering Realities," which suspiciously tries to do something similar to what this piece is about. But their take is more about the platforms and "hive minds" that are quite general and not too helpful IMHO. What I will attempt to do here is provide a template by which anyone can use to analyze the content you are consuming today. This is an especially important exercise, as it may reveal uncomfortable truths about your favorite podcasters, youtubers, tiktokers, x-ers, etc. Be sober-minded; be watchful. Your adversary the devil prowls around like a roaring lion, seeking someone to devour. ~1 Peter 5:8 C19 was the Great Reset Can you believe it's been over 4 years since the lockdowns? If you're reading this, congratulations! You survived a highly orchestrated worldwide trauma based mind control session that could only be possible on the doorsteps of a true technocratic dystopia. Human interaction in the first world became exclusively virtual. Leaders of all strata were forced to make totalitarian decisions. And economic infrastructure was rattled for the first time in over a decade. No place was this more obvious than Mainstream Corporate Media. It can be stated that C19 was one giant initiation ritual for the general public, brought to you by those, knowingly or not, doing the bidding of the principalities and powers that think they have control over the earth and its people. THE GREAT EXODUS When we (@CanaryCryRadio) started to notice long time talking head personalities leave, get fired, or "let go" from their legacy trad-media fortresses, many were forced to go "independent." We watched as they started forming alliances and groups in the "wild west" of online virtual media by either joining established alternative platforms, or going solo publishing blogs, podcasts, YouTube, TikTok etc. The folks who were once celebrated as the faces and voices of the establishment, suddenly found themselves alongside random people like you and I, competing for attention, clicks, and a paycheck. Some have found their way into government or private think tanks (@ChrisCillizza,@ChrisGloninger). This diaspora of people coming out of the traditional media was/is happening to almost every sector or industry, including healthcare. In fact, it could be argued that health/wellness is THE most impacted when it comes to a post-C19 psyoped world. An exodus from the Big Pharma economic model seems to have been one tentacle of the greater plan to restructure everything. Or at least an excuse to show how broken it is, in order to implement the stuff that will "fix" it. Good ole' problem-reaction-solution. Of course, such a massive beast like Big Pharma can't flip their cash cow infrastructure on a dime. They have an entire generation of customers hooked in, til' death-do-them-part. It would take a decade at least. In the meantime, it would be beneficial for someone to cast a large net to capture all the disgruntled and disenfranchised citizens exiting the trust funnel of the traditional institutional pillars. It seems that's what the Wellness Company did. Some might call it a smart and savvy business decision, others might call it a direct operation from the intelligence playbooks. As you'll see, the lines that separate these things are blurring. And it could be argued, that the final shift will come with the economic infrastructure, not just medical. THE INFILTRATION To that effect, I think Amazing Polly and others before her have done a pretty good job bringing attention to individuals who started the Wellness Company, and some of their ties to former private military contractors like BlackWater (Erik Prince openly assisted James O'Keefe and the Veritas Project learn how to do undercover work). The sentiment had been that such training turned Veritas Project into a "patriotic intelligence outfit." It was likely also the reason for its undoing as well. Since Amazing Polly published her video on the TWC, complete with a map of content creators who are either sponsored or have affiliates with them, she found herself being attacked and eventually doxxed. I'm not particularly in support of doxxing anyone, but the information that did surface about her was, at best, bad optics, and at worst, revealed some uncomfortable truths. In short, her husband works for a company in Canada whose position required Government security clearance. I get it. Not everyone who has a Gov security clearance is part of the lizard club, but as I stated in the post that you can read here, I suggested directly to Amazing Polly, that it's bad optics. Especially if that was something she was trying to hide from the public (which she has a right to do), since she likely understood that it would be bad optics coming from someone who has a decent sized following, making content exposing "the system". Her husbands LinkedIn account has since been deleted. If you want to learn more about her reporting and perspective, you can see the video she published here, and the surrounding commentary about being doxxed etc. In my personal opinion, the Amazing Polly vs TWC drama is just one tree in a much larger forest. Namely a sociological and technological phenomenon of decentralization (maybe even balkanization) of everything from journalism, to healthcare, to intelligence operations itself! The implications are more dire for all of us in one way, but a cause for hope in another. DON'T GET TRIGGERED I said in a recent podcast episode of Canary Cry NewsTalk, that "we are all being turned into intelligence operatives." What I meant was that every citizen (especially those on the internet) are effectively agents that represent something...or someone. In that context, maybe it was good that Erik Prince helped Project Veritas do undercover work to expose corruption, especially in the traditional right-left paradigm that we've all been forced into. Or perhaps it speaks to how the true social engineers have already been working on creating the parallel economy to the Mainstream Media, by building out the Alternative Media. The necessities of such an operation would naturally mean that they would have to mingle with the general population. This bridged the traditional intelligence operatives into civilian life, and weaponized civilian life to become more like intelligence operations. This is especially true when it comes to news media. What this all means is that you and I are all being forced into this weird period of time when anything we say, do, write, or publish online, can be used for agendas that far exceed the initial intent of that piece of content. We've all become messengers in the 5th generation war. The rise of the MIC (Military Industrial Complex) in the 20th century was marked by the partnerships between Private (Corporations) and Public (Government) sectors; Public-Private Partnerships. PPPs were designed to create the gray-area economic apparatus that would effectively secure the United States as the first benefactor in diplomacy and military affairs worldwide. Corporations that build really expensive and dangerous stuff, and Governments who come up with reasons to need them. And we-the-people get to pay for it. What could go wrong? It is true that this very apparatus is currently running wild, instigating the poly-chaos of World War 3, where geopolitical and trans-religious tensions will unground the loyalties of prior generations, and instead, form new conflicts between networks. But this cannot be possible without the tools to make it happen. As the MIC built "stuff" over decades, certain patented technologies and their commercial products began embedding themselves into our public communications infrastructure. As of 2024, there are smart phones in the hands of more than 6 billion people around the world. This distribution has been a massive vehicle for the rise of "Alternative Media." Even before the Trump era that started the greater public awareness of corruption and downfall of legacy media, a thriving Alternative Media synonymously existed alongside Independent Media. In fact, the two phrases meant essentially the same thing, mostly apparent via their economic models. Much like the title "Alternative Rock" when I was growing up, anything "ALT" simply meant, "stuff that's not being pushed by the mainstream (record labels, commercials, news outlets etc.)." It is supposed to represent content not economically incentivized by a third party, who wield the power to facilitate and manufacture a spot light for the subject. The music industry is a great analogy because we lived through the decentralization of economic viability for musicians through the rise of the Internet. Big record labels were forced to go more and more shallow as true talent were able to exist more or less independently or by way of starting their own record labels (alternative). As avenues and opportunities to build one's own economic fortresses increased, the lines between mainstream and alternative/independent became blurred. Mainstream has increasingly become nothing better than the vehicle for pure propaganda. But much of Alternative Media thrives its existence on calling out and exposing the lies of the mainstream. Without the Mainstream Media, Alternative Media is nothing. There is a symbiosis, a manufactured paradigm war, to keep each other alive. Thus, as Alternative Media has matured into the New Mainstream, a new distinction has become clear. Alternative vs Independent. The maturing indicates that we have reached critical mass on the decentralization and distribution of military grade comm technology. It's why we are currently going through the adoption of #Bitcoin, where pseudonymity of transacting on a trust-less immutable ledger benefits both the intel operatives and great grandma living on the other side of the world alike. In fact, the transition to go from online to on-chain is WELL under way. But in this new paradigm where the old ways of PPPs are exposed, new types of operations most certainly exist. Especially if it can assist the new generation of social engineers to transition from the train their forefathers built, onto a shiny new rocket ship. It's a lot to process, but I hope you get something out of how I'm working through this stuff to navigate the new landscape of millions to billions of voices all screaming into the database, competing to win the attention of the masses for just one moment to deliver a message. The Evolution of PPPs Parallels to Public-Private Partnerships (PPPs) like Public-Public Partnerships (PuPs) have also been around in past decades, where governments partner with non-profits instead of corporations. Highly controlled and tactical messages sent through, what was at the time, the advent of modern media; Newspapers, Magazines, TV/Radio stations is one thing (there were only so many when I was growing up), but perhaps even more powerful are/were the pulpits who reinforced the messages (501c3, non-profits, Truman's Psychological Strategy Board). As we find ourselves in this chaotic period a quarter of the way into the 21st century, the word "public" in the old PPP sense (Government), has become rather obsolete. No longer are our governments, especially at the federal level, representing the will of the people. Hence, the word "public" ought to be given back "to the people" as it were. As such, we might be in new kinds of manufactured "partnerships." Specifically a "Civic Partnership," meaning the general public, largely measured in attention and clicks. These are more akin to "social contracts" between a creator and their audiences. Other synonyms like "tribes" have been used, but I stuck with Civic because it implies public duty, especially in online media that covers world events and news. The labels I'm about to list here are not official, not taken from any public document (although informed by them), nor are they fully developed. They also ought to be considered on a spectrum, not hard lines. As you'll discover, it's not just "us" versus "them" anymore. It's really all of us competing with one another in this new digital citizen panopticon as we begin to find our virtual homes in whatever Network States we identify with most (@balajis). Jesus said in Matthew 24:7 "Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom..." In this new era, it might be appropriate to understand it as "Network against Network." Since the modern network is defined by code, we can reference how all of this goes back to the power of the words and symbols. If we are careless with our tongue, we may fall into the trap of unintentionally misleading our fellow citizens. COVERT-CIVIC PARTNERSHIPS (CCPs) I'd like to start off by suggesting the Covert-Civic Partnerships (CCPs...ironic

The Government has been warned that companies that could build and operate schools think it is too risky and are not interested. It has also been told financing school builds with public-private partnerships or PPPs, is unlikely to let the Crown dodge the risk of cost blowouts as much as it would like. However, the advice to the Education Minister goes on to conclude that the PPP model could be rejigged to overcome these barriers. Phil Pennington got the advice under the Official Information Act. Pennington spoke to Ingrid Hipkiss.

In this episode, Andrea evaluates the impact of public-private partnerships (PPPs) in education - what we have learned from past mistakes and what we know about future opportunities. While PPPs have demonstrated significant positive impacts, challenges such as ensuring equity, maintaining accountability, and addressing potential privatization concerns require careful consideration. Overall, when structured and managed effectively, PPPs have the potential to be powerful mechanisms for driving positive change and improving educational outcomes on a global scale. . . .

Sobretudo desde o episódio 139, há precisamente um ano, no qual o convidado foi Bo Rothstein, um dos investigadores mundiais mais reputados sobre qualidade da governação.  Na altura, falámos sobre como, para um país ter uma boa governação, é necessário não apenas uma democracia de qualidade e bons políticos, mas também instituições públicas dotadas de técnicos competentes e imparciais. Ou seja, para termos boas políticas públicas é essencial termos também uma Administração Pública (no sentido mais amplo) capaz -- para, desde logo, ajudar os decisores políticos a desenhar as melhores políticas (porque quem lá está tem provavelmente muito mais conhecimento do que um ministro que, tipicamente, não dura sequer um mandato na pasta) e, segundo, uma AP que consiga implementar essas mesmas políticas de uma forma eficaz e imparcial (ou seja, para a população em geral e não apenas o eleitorado do partido do poder).  A verdade, no entanto, é que tendemos a desvalorizar esta condição necessária da boa governação. Falamos muito de política e políticas públicas -- as melhores medidas para atingir este ou aquele fim --, mas discutimos pouco a estrutura que terá de implementá-las; e o 45 Graus não era excepção nesta tendência -- até agora. Bem sei que a AP parece um tema pouco sexy (menos do que o que se passa nas empresas privadas, e muito menos do que a actualidade política, sempre sumarenta), mas acreditem que este episódio vai valer a pena.  Depois de alguma pesquisa por convidados para discutir este tema (inclusive com várias sugestões de ouvintes e amigos, a quem agradeço), acabei por decidir trazer alguém de fora da AP, que pudesse ter uma perspectiva simultaneamente ampla e distanciada. Definido este critério, o nome do convidado, António Tavares, era a escolha óbvia. O António é autor de vasta investigação nesta área e escreveu um ensaio chamado precisamente "Administração Pública Portuguesa", publicado em 2019 pela Fundação Francisco Manuel dos Santos. Esta foi, como vão ver, uma conversa muito esclarecedora e que nos faz pensar. E é, ao mesmo tempo, um episódio que desafia pré concepções ideológicas sobre a AP -- de ambos os lados.  Por um lado, discutimos as lacunas da AP em relação ao que se passa em muitas áreas do privado: desde disposições anacrónicas, como o facto de ser quase impossível ser despedido de um emprego público, à praga das jobs for the boys/girls e à dificuldade que persiste em implementar um sistema de avaliação de desempenho que funcione.  Mas falámos também sobre como é importante capacitamos a nossa AP, se queremos, lá está, políticas públicas melhores e mais eficazes. Um aspecto essencial que em Portugal tem faltado desde sempre é a capacidade para analisar a eficácia das políticas públicas. Mas há aspectos que se têm mesmo deteriorado nas últimas décadas, como a perda de prestígio da função pública, o envelhecimento do corpo de funcionários públicos e o gap crescente de competências para o sector privado em muitas áreas mais complexas. Estas tendências manifestam-se já de forma visível, seja na diminuição da motivação dos professores seja nos casos em que o Estado acaba a assinar contratos de concessão ou privatização em que sai prejudicado. (E as privatizações, já agora, são, precisamente, uma área em que, como vão ver, a opinião do convidado desafia dogmas ideológicos dos dois sentidos). Espero que gostem.  ______________ Obrigado aos mecenas do podcast: Francisco Hermenegildo, Ricardo Evangelista, Henrique Pais João Baltazar, Salvador Cunha, Abilio Silva, Tiago Leite, Carlos Martins, Galaró family, Corto Lemos, Miguel Marques, Nuno Costa, Nuno e Ana, João Ribeiro, Helder Miranda, Pedro Lima Ferreira, Cesar Carpinteiro, Luis Fernambuco, Fernando Nunes, Manuel Canelas, Tiago Gonçalves, Carlos Pires, João Domingues, Hélio Bragança da Silva, Sandra Ferreira , Paulo Encarnação , BFDC, António Mexia Santos, Luís Guido, Bruno Heleno Tomás Costa, João Saro, Daniel Correia, Rita Mateus, António Padilha, Tiago Queiroz, Carmen Camacho, João Nelas, Francisco Fonseca, Rafael Santos, Andreia Esteves, Ana Teresa Mota, ARUNE BHURALAL, Mário Lourenço, RB, Maria Pimentel, Luis, Geoffrey Marcelino, Alberto Alcalde, António Rocha Pinto, Ruben de Bragança, João Vieira dos Santos, David Teixeira Alves, Armindo Martins , Carlos Nobre, Bernardo Vidal Pimentel, António Oliveira, Paulo Barros, Nuno Brites, Lígia Violas, Tiago Sequeira, Zé da Radio, João Morais, André Gamito, Diogo Costa, Pedro Ribeiro, Bernardo Cortez Vasco Sá Pinto, David , Tiago Pires, Mafalda Pratas, Joana Margarida Alves Martins, Luis Marques, João Raimundo, Francisco Arantes, Mariana Barosa, Nuno Gonçalves, Pedro Rebelo, Miguel Palhas, Ricardo Duarte, Duarte , Tomás Félix, Vasco Lima, Francisco Vasconcelos, Telmo , José Oliveira Pratas, Jose Pedroso, João Diogo Silva, Joao Diogo, José Proença, João Crispim, João Pinho , Afonso Martins, Robertt Valente, João Barbosa, Renato Mendes, Maria Francisca Couto, Antonio Albuquerque, Ana Sousa Amorim, Francisco Santos, Lara Luís, Manuel Martins, Macaco Quitado, Paulo Ferreira, Diogo Rombo, Francisco Manuel Reis, Bruno Lamas, Daniel Almeida, Patrícia Esquível , Diogo Silva, Luis Gomes, Cesar Correia, Cristiano Tavares, Pedro Gaspar, Gil Batista Marinho, Maria Oliveira, João Pereira, Rui Vilao, João Ferreira, Wedge, José Losa, Hélder Moreira, André Abrantes, Henrique Vieira, João Farinha, Manuel Botelho da Silva, João Diamantino, Ana Rita Laureano, Pedro L, Nuno Malvar, Joel, Rui Antunes7, Tomás Saraiva, Cloé Leal de Magalhães, Joao Barbosa, paulo matos, Fábio Monteiro, Tiago Stock, Beatriz Bagulho, Pedro Bravo, Antonio Loureiro, Hugo Ramos, Inês Inocêncio, Telmo Gomes, Sérgio Nunes, Tiago Pedroso, Teresa Pimentel, Rita Noronha, miguel farracho, José Fangueiro, Zé, Margarida Correia-Neves, Bruno Pinto Vitorino, João Lopes, Joana Pereirinha, Gonçalo Baptista, Dario Rodrigues, tati lima, Pedro On The Road, Catarina Fonseca, JC Pacheco, Sofia Ferreira, Inês Ribeiro, Miguel Jacinto, Tiago Agostinho, Margarida Costa Almeida, Helena Pinheiro, Rui Martins, Fábio Videira Santos, Tomás Lucena, João Freitas, Ricardo Sousa, RJ, Francisco Seabra Guimarães, Carlos Branco, David Palhota, Carlos Castro, Alexandre Alves, Cláudia Gomes Batista, Ana Leal, Ricardo Trindade, Luís Machado, Andrzej Stuart-Thompson, Diego Goulart, Filipa Portela, Paulo Rafael, Paloma Nunes, Marta Mendonca, Teresa Painho, Duarte Cameirão, Rodrigo Silva, José Alberto Gomes, Joao Gama, Cristina Loureiro, Tiago Gama, Tiago Rodrigues, Miguel Duarte, Ana Cantanhede, Artur Castro Freire, Rui Passos Rocha, Pedro Costa Antunes, Sofia Almeida, Ricardo Andrade Guimarães, Daniel Pais, Miguel Bastos, Luís Santos _______________ Esta conversa foi editada por: Hugo Oliveira _______________ Bio: António Tavares é doutorado e investigador na área da Administração Pública e do Poder Local.
