To Wah or not to Wah? Tonight Auckland city hosts international rugby union and a bit of Aussie club rugby league. On the face of it, and with that description, it should be a no-brainer around which fixture should command your attention. The All Blacks are number two in the world, taking on the number three ranked Irish in a game that defends the All Blacks' almost unbelievable unbeaten Eden Park record. 32 years, 52 games without tasting defeat. Impressive. The Warriors, near the top of the NRL ladder (3rd after last night's games) are hosting some roadkill at Mt Smart. The Dragons have all the fire of a cigarette butt at the bottom of a schooner, currently languishing in last place and lucky to be there. Plainly, fans of league will be front and centre with the NRL fixture, fans of union will be fully focused on the Nations Championship clash, but what about the undecided? The All Blacks are frontrunners as their game kicks off at 7:10, the Wahs beatdown commences at 7:35. A nose in front from the All Blacks – then the race tightens. Off the playing surface, Wahs fans are a much more exciting proposition than All Blacks fans. The fear of loss chokes the environment up; the tension crushes the joy of the experience, at the ground and on telly. Rugby fans find it hard to celebrate. League fans are triggered by anything, especially in a crowd, and there's no better crowd in NZ sport than the massive one at Mt Smart. This vibrancy smashes its way out of the telly and spills cheap beer on the floor. On the playing surface, if the Irish win and topple the All Blacks' tower of invincibility, that's not an upset at all. There is a sense that this new look All Blacks team should have enough to hold the Irish at arm's length, but we all know how frail the All Blacks' grasp on significant results have been over the last few years, so losing the Eden Park streak isn't at all out of the question. Do really want to watch that? Conversely, to beat down the emerald barbarians at the gate will bring enormous pride and a sense that Rennie might actually be on to something. Didn't work for Razor though, did it? His 2025 Eden Park South African defiance was remarkable, but the next week we saw possibly the worst performance in All Blacks living memory. As for the Wahs, there's not a comp in the world as close as the NRL. The Dragons are toilet this year, but as we saw on Thursday night when the Bronco whipping boys conjured up a win versus the table topping Panthers, upsets are commonplace. So the Wahs could lose, but they could also open up a can of whup-ass on St George. Still undecided? Try this... is a Warriors team on the way up a better experience than an All Blacks side still trying to find their lost mojo? The choice is yours, whatever you decide, turn off your phone so social media or your mates don't wreck the delayed experience for you.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This episode brings together two experts to discuss recent second-round presidential elections in Peru and Colombia: Jo-Marie Burt, a senior fellow at WOLA and professor at George Mason University's Schar School of Policy and Government, and a leading expert on Peru; and Gimena Sánchez-Garzoli, WOLA's Director for the Andes, who maintains close contact with Colombian civil society. Both elections produced razor-thin margins, and both delivered victories to right-wing, populist candidates promising crackdowns on crime and a hard line against their political adversaries. In Peru, Keiko Fujimori won the presidency on her fourth attempt, while in Colombia, Abelardo de la Espriella narrowly defeated left-leaning Iván Cepeda. Burt describes Fujimori's ascent as the culmination of years spent consolidating control over Peru's key institutions, like Congress, the constitutional tribunal, and the attorney general's office. She characterizes Fujimori as "singularly motivated, singularly ambitious, and singularly ruthless," shaped by her upbringing under her father Alberto Fujimori's authoritarian government. Burt warns that Fujimori is driven by a desire for revenge against those who helped prosecute and imprison her father, including journalists like Gustavo Gorriti, human rights lawyers, prosecutors, and judges. She details a legislative landscape already tilted toward impunity—amnesty laws shielding police and military, and restrictions crippling NGOs' ability to represent victims. Burt argues Peru has drifted toward a hybrid or even authoritarian regime. Sánchez-Garzoli paints a tense picture in Colombia, where outgoing President Gustavo Petro has refused to recognize the election results, alleging fraud and foreign interference despite institutional findings to the contrary. She notes intervention by the Trump administration and U.S. lawmakers. With the transition suspended and Petro calling supporters into the streets, while armed groups reposition, Sánchez-Garzoli warns of a real risk of political violence. She outlines de la Espriella's "iron fist" agenda: mega-prisons modeled on El Salvador's Nayib Bukele, reviving the controversial ESMAD riot police, and a "special urban defense bloc" that she fears could blur the line between state security and paramilitary activity, echoing Colombia's dark history. "Colombia can't return to the belief that problems can be solved through bullets," she says, paraphrasing Colombian human rights defender Leyner Palacios. The conversation explores the deeper social fractures driving these results: in Peru, divisions of race, class, and region between Lima and the neglected Andean provinces, alongside a "frozen" collective memory of the 1980s-90s internal armed conflict manipulated to smear the left as communist. In Colombia, urban-rural divides also shape perceptions of security and the peace process. Both guests anticipate closer alignment with Washington, though they distinguish ideological affinity from generous funding. Sánchez-Garzoli expects a "total reset" in U.S.-Colombia relations, possible joint operations, and migration cooperation including reports of a plan to facilitate deportations of Colombian asylum seekers. Burt notes U.S. concern over China's growing influence in Peru. Despite the grim outlook, both find grains of hope: in Peru, a tentative opposition alliance and a still-vibrant regional civil society; in Colombia, strong institutions, a diverse Congress, and a resilient press and civil society. The episode closes with a reflection that both presidents-elect, lacking strong bases, face the "Milei challenge" of governing without a coalition.

This week on Into The Necrosphere, Alan Averill of Primordial returns to the podcast for one of our most thought-provoking conversations to date. We discuss what it means to become a legacy band, why Primordial's lyrics seem more relevant today than they did thirty years ago, the rise of AI and its impact on creativity, and whether heavy metal is still capable of producing artists with genuine authenticity and staying power. We also explore the changing nature of the music industry, the pressures of growing older in extreme metal, why so much modern art feels increasingly disposable, and Alan shares his thoughts on the state of the scene as only he can. On the Weekly News Rant, I check out the latest singles by Hulder, From The Vastland, Terrestrial Hospice, Mordant Rhed, Left To Die and others, debate which modern black metal bands have what it takes to replace the likes of Mayhem, Emperor and Satyricon as genuine festival headliners, countdown my favourite Motörhead songs and, of course, dunk another deserving recipient on my Swirly of the Week. Plus: Epikoros deliver a fire-and-brimstone debut with “Black Sun Eclipse” and take a thoroughly deserved bow in the Unsanctioned Filth spotlight.

One of my favorite shows is Scrubs, and there's one episode that's stuck with me for nearly 2 decades, and I think about it nearly every day. In it, the team can't diagnose a patient showing every sign of Lyme disease, because they can't find the tick bite. Every test comes back negative. Then Dr. Cox shaves the patient's head, finds the bite, and mentions Occam's Razor: the simplest solution is often the correct one.That idea has run through my whole business; I'm a natural overthinker. So today I talk about why we overcomplicate things, and why tool hunting feels productive when it's really just busy work in disguise.If you feel stuck or don't have a system in place yet, get the free Solopreneur System Starter Kit at https://streamlined.fm/kit.

Welcome to The Times of Israel's Daily Briefing, your 20-minute audio update on what's happening in Israel, the Middle East and the Jewish world. Diplomatic correspondent Lazar Berman joins host Amanda Borschel-Dan for today's episode. For the second straight day, the United States struck Iran late Wednesday and into early Thursday morning after hitting Iranian targets a day earlier in retaliation for attacks on commercial shipping in the Strait of Hormuz. The Islamic Republic responded by attacking sites in Kuwait and Bahrain, but not yet Israel. Berman assesses the causes for the current flare-up and where things may go from here. Although Israel did all it could to convince the White House not to provide Turkey with advanced military hardware that would drastically improve its air force, US President Donald Trump seems keen on pushing for Turkey's rejoining the F-35 program. Berman breaks down why the country was initially ejected from the program and what Israel's objections are. During the NATO summit in Ankara on Wednesday, Trump informed his Syrian counterpart Ahmed al-Sharaa that he had decided to remove the country from the US list of designated state sponsors of terrorism. During this same meetup, Trump touted his decision to recognize Israeli sovereignty over the Golan Heights and spoke to Turkey's influence in Syria. Berman puts the pieces together. Israel-Jordan relations are at a nadir as the Jewish state decided not to renew a 2021 "goodwill" agreement that would see Israel doubling its required water allotment to its parched neighbor. We learn how we got here -- and how the relationship could soon be improved. Check out The Times of Israel's ongoing liveblog for more updates. For further reading: US launches 2nd night of strikes against Iran, as Israel said bracing for war to restart NATO summit and Trump’s support for F-35s sale boost Turkey’s standing, as slumping Israel sees clout erode US to delist Syria as state sponsor of terror, in new boost to Sharaa Parched Jordan fuming at Israeli refusal to renew expired water deal – report Subscribe to The Times of Israel Daily Briefing on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube, or wherever you get your podcasts.

Who got unexpectedly destroyed by something they never saw coming? This one's a must-listen for any metalhead who loves discovering new music alongside people who actually give a damn about it.
NASA physicist's UAP math survives. His conclusion doesn't. Mayim Bialik ran the razor first — Brian finishes the cut. Kevin Knuth is a tenured physicist, former NASA Ames researcher, and published exoplanet scientist who has done the actual math on the Nimitz encounter. We cover: - Whether Tic Tac flight physics rules out conventional explanations - Why the 60% cross-cultural abduction pattern isn't what it looks like - The Malmstrom missile shutdowns and the three hypotheses Kevin ignores - What years of neutron analysis on alleged crash debris actually found - Why Mayim Bialik dismantled the light-day argument before Brian could. The inference move — not the data — is what fails the razor every time.

Tristan Schukraft is one of the most influential figures in queer life right now, and chances are you already know his work. He's the founder of MISTR, the free online platform that has become the largest prescriber of PrEP in the U.S., representing 20% of all prescriptions nationwide. He's the owner of the Abbey, the legendary West Hollywood gay bar in Los Angeles. And he's the man behind Tryst Hotels, a growing collection of boutique properties built specifically for queer travelers, with locations open and in development from Puerto Vallarta to Provincetown to Rio de Janeiro. This week, Newsweek's H. Alan Scott sits down with Schukraft to talk about why he started MISTR, how it works for both insured and uninsured patients, and why eliminating new HIV infections in the U.S. is closer to reality than most people realize. They also get into the Sister platform, National PrEP Day with Cardi B, bringing the Real Housewives to Capitol Hill and what it actually takes to preserve queer institutions at a moment when so many are disappearing. Plus, Schukraft opens up about his six boyfriends, his Razor scooter hustle and why he built his dream hotel after one too many mojitos on a Puerto Rican beach.

CHANGE IN WHO IS PLAYED ON THE PODCAST, NO AI MUSIC, FOCUS ON PERFORMING BANDS Something important happened recently. I received my first - ever submission from a Celtic "band" that was 100% AI - generated. Honestly? It sounded good. And I was grateful the artist, Emma Rove, was completely open about it. The music and the vocals were AI. I couldn't tell. But from the early days of this podcast, my goal has been to promote indie Celtic artists. I'm updating that for the future. My goal is to promote performing indie Celtic artists. This actually works well for me. I'm not a fan of most "Celtic Music" on YouTube. It's usually electronic and orchestrated. Not my thing. So if the artists aren't performing, I probably won't play them on the podcast. Hopefully that makes for a better show all around. Thanks for your support. THANK YOU PATRONS OF THE PODCAST!

Evan Ellis highlights a razor-thin election in Peru between Keiko Fujimori and Roberto Sanchez, exposing deep national divisions over corruption and wealth distribution. The outcome is geopolitically significant, as China already maintains a massive foothold in Peru through control of critical infrastructure, including major ports, mines, and electricity. (14)1910

In this latest installment of The Bigfoot Inquiry, Brian and Dr. Hogan Sherrow dive into one of the most important conversations in modern Sasquatch research: Occam's Razor, parsimony, and the need for critical thinking when evaluating Bigfoot evidence.Using Brian's recent newsletter topic as the foundation, the discussion explores how the scientific method can help researchers, enthusiasts, and witnesses examine claims without immediately jumping to the most extraordinary conclusion. Brian reflects on campout experiences where people interpreted blurry shapes, broken sticks, unusual trees, possible footprints, and so-called structures as evidence of Sasquatch activity. He explains his diplomatic response of “that's weird” while also emphasizing the importance of considering simpler explanations first, including pareidolia, human activity, environmental conditions, animal behavior, and confirmation bias.Brian and Dr. Hogan also address the growing divide within the Bigfoot community between open-minded inquiry and uncritical belief. They discuss how explanations involving portals, mind speak, and other “woo” concepts can sometimes add unnecessary layers of mystery instead of bringing researchers closer to answers. While both remain open to possibilities, they stress that extraordinary claims require careful evaluation and that the strongest path forward is one rooted in evidence, humility, and intellectual honesty.The conversation also touches on how artificial intelligence has made photographs and videos less reliable than ever, increasing the need for biological evidence, field discipline, and objective analysis. From debates surrounding the Patterson-Gimlin film to modern programs like Capturing Bigfoot, Brian and Dr. Hogan examine how ego, gullibility, infighting, and overinterpretation can weaken the search for truth.At its core, this episode is a reminder that critical thinking is not the enemy of belief. It is what gives the search for Sasquatch credibility.Brian and Dr. Hogan encourage listeners to stay curious, get outside, investigate responsibly, question assumptions, and evaluate every claim with both an open mind and a grounded perspective.Email BrianGet Our FREE NewsletterGet Brian's Books Leave Us A VoicemailVisit Our WebsiteBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/sasquatch-odyssey--4839697/support.Have you had a Bigfoot encounter, Sasquatch sighting, Dogman experience, or other cryptid or paranormal encounter?

In this reflective episode, Brian opens up a conversation he's been turning over for a while now. Occam's razor, the principle he quotes on this show more than any other, and why it keeps walking back into the room every time he tries to make sense of a Sasquatch report, a piece of evidence, or a guest's wilder claim. He walks through what the principle actually says versus the bumper sticker version most people learn, why simple isn't really the right word for what Occam was getting at, and how a good razor cuts both ways for the lazy skeptic and the eager believer alike.Brian also gets honest, on the record, about his disagreement with Bill Munns on the new Capturing Bigfoot documentary and the forty second clip the filmmakers say was shot on 1966 film stock. With genuine respect for Bill and the work he's done, Brian walks through why the simplest explanation for that footage isn't the one Bill is offering, why he thinks Bill is working backward from a conclusion rather than forward from the evidence, and why the honest position is to keep both possibilities on the table while the rest of the story unfolds.From the witness record and dermal ridges to the Sierra Sounds, from his own 2024 sighting in Washington State to the absence of a body that remains the field's central problem, this episode lays out the biological case clearly and then turns to the part that's been on his mind lately.The shift among some of his guests toward an interdimensional, telepathic, paranormal Sasquatch, and the slippery slope of explaining one mystery by stacking another mystery on top of it.Brian closes with a hard look at citizen science.The documentation discipline he learned in the academy, the role of independent labs, the value of negative results, the trap of confirmation bias, and the patient work that eventually moved meteorites and the giant squid from myth to accepted science.Email BrianGet Our FREE NewsletterGet Brian's Books Leave Us A VoicemailVisit Our WebsiteBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/sasquatch-odyssey--4839697/support.Have you had a Bigfoot encounter, Sasquatch sighting, Dogman experience, or other cryptid or paranormal encounter?

There's a belief in the financial world that complexity equals sophistication. The more moving parts a strategy has, the smarter it must be. The harder it is to understand, the more impressive the advisor must be. And if you can't quite follow what's happening with your own money, well, that's just the price of having a "real" plan. What if that's exactly backwards? https://youtu.be/fI41Ex3OrjQ What if the complexity in your financial life isn't protecting your wealth but quietly eroding it? What if those layers of products, advisors, and strategies you've accumulated over the years have hidden costs that compound silently, year after year, in ways you've never been able to see? That's what we're talking about today. How complexity often shows up as fragmentation. How it creates blind spots and missed opportunities. And why it can lead to something far more dangerous: disengagement from your own financial life. This isn't an argument against all complexity. Some financial situations genuinely require sophisticated strategies, and we'll get into when that's the case. The real question is whether the complexity in your plan is serving you or serving someone else. Key takeaways:How Complexity Gets Sold as IntelligenceThe HVAC TestThe Incentive Structure Behind ItThe Real Cost of Financial FragmentationTerritory ProtectionThe Hidden Costs That Quietly CompoundFees You Can't Account ForMissed Opportunities From Blind SpotsDisengagement: The Most Dangerous CostA Framework That Actually Cuts Through the NoiseSafety, Liquidity, and GrowthThe LIFE FrameworkThe Wealth Creator's Cash Flow SystemWhen Complexity Is Legitimate and How to Tell the DifferenceThe Estate Tax ExampleThe TestPractical Signs Your Financial Plan Is Working Against YouThe Most Sophisticated Thing You Can DoBook a Strategy CallFinancial Strategy CallFrequently Asked QuestionsWhy is financial complexity a problem for high earners?What is financial fragmentation, and why does it hurt your plan?How do I know if my financial plan is too complex?What is the safety, liquidity, and growth framework?When does financial complexity make sense?What does a simple but sophisticated financial plan look like? Key takeaways: Complexity in financial planning is often a feature that benefits the advisor, not you Fragmentation across siloed advisors is the most common and costly form of unnecessary complexity Every dollar you have can be evaluated through three lenses: safety, liquidity, and growth The LIFE framework (Liquidity, Income, Flexible, Estate) turns thousands of decisions into four clear questions Legitimate complexity exists, but it should always solve a specific, identifiable problem If you can't summarize your financial strategy in two or three sentences, something needs to change How Complexity Gets Sold as Intelligence There's a problem-solving principle called Occam's Razor. When two competing explanations exist for the same thing, the simpler one is usually correct. The same principle applies to financial planning. The simplest solution that achieves the objective is almost always the best one. But that's not how the financial services world typically operates. The HVAC Test Think about it like calling an HVAC technician. If they explain the repair using so much jargon that you can't even formulate a question, you're stuck. You can't evaluate what they're telling you. You can't push back. You just nod and write the check. But the underlying principle of how an HVAC system works is actually simple. When matter changes state, it absorbs or releases energy. You don't need to build the system yourself. You just need to understand the basic principle well enough to ask the right questions. Financial planning works the same way. When an advisor uses terminology you can't challenge or restate in your own words, you've effectively outsourced your judgment to them. That's not empowerment. That's blind trust dressed up as expertise. The Incentive Structure Behind It Advisors who make their area of work seem uniquely complex position themselves as irreplaceable. This isn't always intentional, but the result is the same: a client who needs them rather than a client who understands. The more complex they make it sound, the harder it is for you to redirect your capital or question their recommendations. The goal of financial education isn't to replace advisors. It's to make you your own best financial advocate. When you understand the basic principles, you ask better questions, make more confident decisions, and you're far less vulnerable to complexity that doesn't serve you. The Real Cost of Financial Fragmentation The typical high-income financial picture looks like this. You've got an estate attorney (if you've gotten around to it). A banker for loans. A tax preparer, and maybe a separate tax strategist. A property casualty insurance agent. A life insurance agent. A wealth advisor. And a 401(k) administrator. Each one doing their best within their own slice of the picture. None of them see the whole thing. When advisors don't coordinate, strategies contradict each other. A wealth advisor pushing maximum investment contributions may be working directly against a tax strategist's plan. A life insurance agent focused on maximizing the death benefit might be ignoring cash flow implications that the banking relationship depends on. Not because anyone is incompetent. Because nobody is holding the full picture together. Territory Protection Each advisor has an incentive to protect their domain. The complexity they bring demonstrates their value. A wealth planner managing your investments doesn't want to hear that some of that capital should go into life insurance or back into your business. They're going to make their case for why it needs to stay with them, even if that's not what your overall situation calls for. This is fragmentation dressed up as sophistication. A plan with six siloed advisors and no coordination isn't sophisticated. It's fragmented. And the difference matters enormously in outcomes. The ultra-wealthy don't have this problem because they use a coordinated team. One hub that ensures every spoke of the wheel turns together. At The Money Advantage, that's exactly the model we bring to business owners and high-income professionals who aren't managing an eight-figure estate but can't afford the costs of fragmentation either. The Hidden Costs That Quietly Compound The costs of financial complexity aren't always obvious. They accumulate in layers, and most people never add them all up. Fees You Can't Account For Complexity creates layers of fees that are individually defensible but collectively significant. Advisory fees, product fees, transaction costs, and tax drag from uncoordinated strategies. Each one seems reasonable in isolation. Together, they represent a meaningful drag on your returns that you've probably never calculated. The important nuance: fees aren't inherently bad. If a fee-bearing strategy delivers what you need, the fee isn't the issue. Just like tax aversion shouldn't prevent you from making more money, fee aversion shouldn't prevent you from accessing strategies that genuinely serve your goals. The problem is paying fees for complexity that doesn't serve you, and not being able to tell the difference. Missed Opportunities From Blind Spots When advisors don't coordinate, opportunities fall through the gaps. A tax-efficient structure that one advisor could have implemented conflicts with a position another advisor already set up. Capital that could have been deployed into a higher-returning strategy sat in a low-yield holding because nobody was looking at the full picture. You never see the return you didn't get. But the opportunity cost compounds over time just as relentlessly as the fees do. Disengagement: The Most Dangerous Cost This is the one that compounds most destructively. When a financial plan is too complex to understand, people disengage. They stop reviewing statements. They stop asking questions. They say yes to recommendations they don't fully understand because pushing back feels like exposing their own ignorance. Financial disengagement isn't a character flaw. It's a rational response to overwhelm. But it leaves your wealth in the hands of people whose incentives may not align with your long-term interest. And once you've disengaged, you're deferring everything. That's not a plan. That's abdication. A Framework That Actually Cuts Through the Noise So what does a clearer approach look like? It starts with frameworks that can simplify virtually any financial decision you'll face. Safety, Liquidity, and Growth Every dollar you have needs to be evaluated through three lenses. Is it safe? Is it liquid? Does it grow? You can't get all three from one instrument. Put your money under the mattress. Is it safe? Relatively. Is it liquid? Yes. Does it grow? No. Put it in a bank. It's safe up to $250,000 per account, it's liquid (mostly), but it doesn't grow in any way that outpaces inflation. Put it into a business. It can grow, but it's neither safe nor liquid. The stock market? Liquid and historically grows over long enough time periods, but it's certainly not safe. And "long enough" matters. Tell me your time period, and I'll tell you whether growth is realistic. When you stop asking "which product is best?" and start asking "what does this dollar need to do?" the decision-making process becomes dramatically clearer. The LIFE Framework Once you understand safety, liquidity, and growth, the next step is knowing how to allocate your capital across four purposes: L = Liquidity. How much money do you need immediately accessible? This comes first. Not last. I = Income. How much should generate consistent income?...
SCHEDULE JOHN BATCHELOR SHOW, 5-21-2026.1943 USA INFORMATION WAR.Anatol Lieven discusses the resignation of Latvia's Prime Minister following air defense failures. Ukrainian drones targeting Russia have been transiting Baltic airspace, leading to Russian threats of retaliation. Lieven explores the risk of unintended escalation between NATO and Russia amidst suspicions of Baltic-Ukrainian cooperation regarding these drone flight paths. (1/16)Following meetings in Beijing, Vladimir Putin seeks to finalize a gas pipeline to China to offset lost European markets. Anatol Lieven notes that while trade in dual-use technology grows, China remains cautious about full military escalation. Russia's involvement in the Iran and Ukraine wars complicates its position, as it lacks spare weaponry for Iran. (2/16)Russia has resumed military cargo shipments to Syria for the first time since the al-Sharaa government took power. Ahmad Sharawi explains that President al-Sharaa is balancing relations with Russia, Turkey, and Ukraine to rebuild his military. Tensions remain regarding the integration of foreign jihadist groups, such as al-Qaeda affiliates, into the new Syrian army. (3/16)Mary Anastasia O'Grady reports that the U.S. has imposed sanctions on GAESA, a shadowy military-controlled conglomerate dominating 70% of Cuba's economy. The company manages retail, ports, and foreign currency, including billions allegedly gained through human trafficking of medical personnel. These financial restrictions aim to pressure the regime toward democratic transition and have already impacted foreign investors. (4/16)Evan Ellis reports that Bolivia faces nationwide protests and blockades over austerity measures and fuel shortages. President Rodrigo Paz attempts reconciliation, but former President Evo Morales is accused of destabilizing the government to avoid child trafficking prosecution. While La Paz faces resource shortages, the eastern lowlands remain calm, highlighting a deep regional and political divide. (5/16)Evan Ellis characterizes protests in Bolivia as an organized "coup in motion" funded by coca growers' unions. Figures like Evo Morales and rivals within the government benefit from dismantling reforms. The instability threatens counter-drug efforts and allows criminal organizations to flourish while the government struggles to maintain order amidst resource blockades. (6/16)Evan Ellis reports that the U.S. Justice Department has indicted 94-year-old Raul Castro for the 1996 murder of "Brothers to the Rescue" pilots. The indictment serves as leverage in transition negotiations. Meanwhile, Russia and China pledge support to Cuba, and the arrival of a U.S. aircraft carrier signals a potential shift toward selective military pressure. (7/16)Evan Ellis reports that Venezuela has surrendered Alex Saab, Nicolas Maduro's former bagman, to the U.S. for prosecution. Saab possesses critical information on illicit financial flows involving Iran, Cuba, and Colombia. Delcy Rodriguez's decision to extradite him suggests a complex internal power play to appease Washington while eliminating her own political rivals. (8/16)Peter Mauch explores the early life of Hideki Tojo, focusing on his failed 1945 suicide attempt and the military code prohibiting the disgrace of surrender. Born into a samurai-descended family, Tojo's ambitions were fueled by the perceived mistreatment of his father by a cronyist military system, leading him to excel academically. (9/16)Peter Mauch explains that during the 1930s, the Japanese army split into the "Imperial Way" and "Control" factions. The Imperial Way prioritized morale and the Emperor, while Tojo's Control faction advocated for "total war" preparation involving all state resources. This rivalry turned murderous, culminating in assassinations and coup attempts against the civilian government. (10/16)Peter Mauch explains that in 1937, the Marco Polo Bridge incident sparked conflict between Japan and China. While Tokyo sought de-escalation, the Kwantung Army, including Tojo, pushed for escalation and conquest. Chiang Kai-shek's refusal to surrender drew the Japanese military into a "quicksand" interior, creating an inescapable and draining quagmire for the army. (11/16)Peter Mauch explains that as War Minister, Tojo—nicknamed "The Razor"—instilled iron discipline within the fractious Japanese army to earn the Emperor's favor. He consolidated political power by centralizing military communication and cashiering insubordinate officers. Meanwhile, Japan eyed the defenseless Southeast Asian colonies of European powers, determined not to "miss the bus." (12/16)Veronique de Rugy argues that tariffs function as taxes paid by Americans, with costs passing to consumers at a 96% rate. Despite promises to revive manufacturing, employment in that sector has continued to decline. The policy is described as a "catastrophe" resulting in billions in unconstitutional levies that require federal refunds. (13/16)Sadanand Dhume reports that the BJP's landslide victory in West Bengal marks a significant defeat for longtime leader Mamata Banerjee. Her neglect of the economy and corruption allegations led to her ouster. This victory signals Narendra Modi's regained political strength, cracking opposition bastions and positioning India as a vital alternative in global supply chains. (14/16)Anatoly Zak reports that despite sanctions and corruption scandals, Russia successfully launched the Soyuz-5 rocket, a joint project with Kazakhstan designed to replace Ukrainian technology. While international commercial prospects have vanished, Russia is pivoting toward domestic military payloads. Development continues on the Angara family of rockets, though the program faces significant spacecraft production delays. (15/16)Anatoly Zak reports that Russia has successfully tested the Sarmat, a heavy liquid-propellant ICBM designed to target the United States. Capable of carrying up to 20 maneuverable warheads, it replaces the Ukrainian-built "Satan" missile. While technologically complex and using toxic propellants, it represents Russia's commitment to maintaining a formidable strategic nuclear deterrent. (16/16)Notes: corrected "Akmed Sharawari" → Ahmad Sharawi; "Alshara" → al-Sharaa (Syrian president). Flag if you prefer alternate transliterations.

Alan Mack flew Chinooks for the 160th Special Operations Aviation Regiment for seventeen years. Chief Warrant Officer 5. Senior MH-47 pilot. Flight lead. Instructor. He was the pilot in command of Razor 03 on Takur Ghar — the aircraft shot up trying to insert a SEAL element on top of the mountain that became Roberts Ridge. He has logged over 6,700 flight hours, took rounds through his cockpit on Anaconda, ran fog approaches into walled compounds in Iraq, and helped write the procedures the Night Stalkers still use to land in zero visibility. After retiring, he commanded the flight detachment at West Point and spent a decade running emergency management for a New York county. He is the author of Razor 03 and the upcoming Chinooks in the Dark. We cover the new Medal of Honor awarded to a 160th pilot and what it actually takes to earn one. The Anaconda shoot down — RPG, lost hydraulics, three cans of fluid, and a crew chief pumping a t-handle to keep him in the controls. Why he chose to dive at a Dishka instead of climbing. The myth around Extortion 17 and why the conspiracy doesn't hold up. How the unit trains pilots to fly through real lead. Air refueling at night in the weather. Cutting hoses with rotor blades. And the lessons every pilot — military or civilian — needs to internalize before the aircraft starts shedding systems on them.

In today's episode of the Atheist Experience, Justin and JMike tackle "wizardly" philosophy, the hiddenness of God, and the dangers of religious bait-and-switches! From vampire lighting to the problem of a hidden cosmic dictator, the hosts challenge listeners to examine if faith is just a mask for mankind's worst instincts.Steve in OH fears the Noahide laws represent a literal Mark of the Beast. Justin identifies 666 as Nero and explains the tefillin's symbolic role. They debate if Daniel's prophecies about Greece apply today. Can ancient laws predict geopolitics?Jason in OH argues for a mind-dependent universe based on the uniqueness of consciousness. JMike uses Occam's Razor to show that a deity adds no explanatory power. Does the experience of redness require a cosmic observer to exist?Push Back Ministries on TikTok argues mathematics proves a designer. JMike and Justin defend nominalism, viewing numbers as human inventions. They critique the Trinity's logic. Can a hidden God be blamed for people losing their faith?Steph in Canada suggests truth is an ingredient of God.

Junk mail seems like a relic of another era. Physical ads showing up in your mailbox feel easy to ignore in a world dominated by digital marketing. Yet companies still spend billions sending those mailers every year. Why? Because for certain groups of people, those pieces of mail are surprisingly effective — far more than you might expect. https://www.uspsoig.gov/sites/default/files/reports/2023-01/RISC-WP-20-009.pdf Artificial intelligence is suddenly everywhere — writing emails, answering questions, summarizing documents, and even helping people make decisions. But should we trust it? Linguist Emily Bender, a professor at the University of Washington and one of the world's leading voices urging caution about AI hype, argues that we may be misunderstanding what these systems actually do. Named to the inaugural TIME 100 list of the most influential people in AI, she explains why tools like ChatGPT can appear intelligent while operating very differently from human thinking. She is co-author of The AI Con: How to Fight Big Tech's Hype and Create the Future We Want (https://amzn.to/3P1v6tn) and she offers an important perspective on how we should — and shouldn't — rely on AI. Humans have been drinking alcohol for thousands of years, and despite the well-known risks, it remains deeply embedded in cultures around the world. Why do people drink in the first place? Is alcohol simply a dangerous toxin, or does it serve psychological or social purposes that help explain its enduring appeal? Dr. Charles Knowles, Professor of Surgery at Queen Mary University of London and Chief Academic Officer at Cleveland Clinic London, brings both scientific expertise and personal experience to the discussion. Having struggled with alcohol dependency himself, he explores what alcohol does inside the body and brain, why some people develop problems while others do not, and how our culture shapes the way we think about drinking. He is the author of Why We Drink Too Much: The Impact of Alcohol on Our Bodies and Culture (https://amzn.to/4b8HHCd). Razor blades are small, simple pieces of metal — yet they often cost far more than people expect. You may even notice they're locked behind glass at many stores. Why are they so expensive, and why haven't competitors driven prices down? Several companies have tried to disrupt the razor business but it hasn't gone as well as many consumers hoped. https://www.forbes.com/sites/andriacheng/2018/01/24/pgs-gillette-woes-have-translated-to-this-good-news-for-consumers/ PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS POCKET HOSE: Text SYSK to 64000 for your two free gifts with the purchase of any Pocket Hose Ballistic hose!
