Podcasts about Realism

Today, we'll be discussing why it's important to create realism in training.

A LARGE MUSEUM IS LIKE AN OPERA. Laurence des Cars is a French museum curator and art historian who President Macron appointed President and Director of the Louvre Museum in September 2021, becoming the first woman to hold the position in the establishment's 228-year history. Her previous role was President of musée d'Orsay and musée de l'Orangerie. Laurence des Cars is the author of several books including ‘The Pre-Raphaelites: Romance and Realism'. “The Louvre is more than a museum. It's a symbol of France, of Paris.” “We are definitely in a very complex moment, and we are looking for places where we can confront ourselves through a perspective of long time in history.” “I do not think that looking at art should be painful, boring and exhausting. It should be absolutely the contrary to that.”

Dr. Mitch Shulman can be heard every weekday morning at 7:50 on The Andrew Carter Morning Show.

  Today on Unsupervised Learning Razib talks to Zineb Riboua, a research fellow and program manager of Hudson Institute's Center for Peace and Security in the Middle East. She specializes in Chinese and Russian involvement in the Middle East, the Sahel, and North Africa, great power competition in the region, and Israeli-Arab relations. Riboua's pieces and commentary have appeared in the Wall Street Journal, Foreign Policy, the National Interest, the Jerusalem Post and Tablet among other outlets. She holds a master's of public policy from the McCourt School of Public Policy at Georgetown University. She did her undergraduate studies in France, where she attended French preparatory classes and HEC Paris' Grande Ecole program. Her Substack is Beyond the Ideological. Razib and Riboua discuss the Trump administration's theory of tariffs as a tool of foreign policy and his attitudes toward multilateral diplomacy. They explore whether any principle beyond power and dominance underlies the current administration's approach, and consider the role of principles and values in foreign policy. Riboua elaborates a realist perspective in line with the thinking of Henry Kissinger. States have interests and abilities to execute on those interests; idealism is secondary. Riboua also discusses the fact that Trump seems attuned to how foreign politicians relate to the American domestic scene. He seems willing to punish those abroad whom he perceives to be favorable to his political enemies and reward those who are personally favorable toward him. Razib then asks Riboua about the geopolitics of her native Morocco, a relatively stable monarchy on northwest Africa's edge that has promoted moderate Islam, a good relationship with Europe and maintained a stable democracy.

Dan, Manny, & Billy put the 2023 American crime thriller film The Last Deal to the ultimate test—THE NOSTALGIA TEST (NOW)! “[The Last Deal]  is a cautionary tale when your friend is a fucking asshole.” -Dan Dissinger The boys have so much fun talking about all the insanity in the indie action drama The Last Deal. They get into the main character's journey to sell 200 pounds of weed in only a week and to find a .22 bolt action rifle at his mom's ranch. They try to figure out why anyone would trust a friend that you just saw stab a guy with a screwdriver, why do loan sharks need to have a contract signed, the long driving sequences, in the movie, and who is this stable girl and what's her deal. There's also the separate movie the girlfriend is in and why is there a naked woman on the toilet. At the end, Dan, Manny, & Billy give their Nostalgia Test Now verdicts and rate the film. There's so much more in this episode, so sit back, grab a drink, and hangout for a while.   Watch The Last Deal on Tubi!

Efforts to simplify the EU's Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism reflect a broader struggle within the bloc to balance environmental goals with economic realities. In this episode of Energy Evolution, host Eklavya Gupte speaks with Commodity Insights senior director Coralie Laurencin, Dan Maleski of Redshaw Advisors, and Nick Ogilvie of CarbonChain, who dig deep into what these proposed changes mean for both the EU's industrial and climate strategy and the broader global energy transition. The guests also provide us with insight on how various industries, commodities, governments and policymakers are reacting to the carbon pricing mechanism, which is expected to have a profound impact on global trade. Energy Evolution has merged with Platts Future Energy, and episodes are now regularly published on Tuesdays.

On the latest episode of The Discourse, host Mike DeAngelo welcomes filmmaker Alex Garland and retired Navy SEAL-turned-director Ray Mendoza to discuss their latest co-directed collaboration, 'Warfare'—a harrowing and unflinching war film based on Mendoza's own real-life experiences in Iraq. The film stars Will Poulter, Joseph Quinn, Cosmo Jarvis, D'Pharaoh Woon-A-Tai, Kit Connor, and Finn Bennett as members of a Navy SEAL unit plunged into a brutal, immersive firefight [read our review here].Set across one intense battle, the film throws audiences into the boots of a SEAL team locked in combat. It's stripped of cinematic sheen, raw in emotion, and deeply grounded in the lived experience of soldiers in the field. While Garland's previous film, 'Civil War,' used speculative fiction to examine the horrors of conflict, 'Warfare' pulls from memory, reality, and lived trauma. No plot, just tense, all-out war.

In a recent article in Jewish Currents, Jon Danforth-Appell proposes that the Jewish left is operating under a paradigm of what he calls “Zionist realism.” This idea draws on theorist Mark Fisher's notion of “capitalist realism,” which describes the way capitalism makes it impossible to imagine alternative world structures; Zionist realism, in Danforth-Appell's conception, similarly makes it difficult for Jews to separate from a received sense of Jewish collectivity, and imagine alternative futures. Danforth-Appell writes that particularist Jewish organizing, typified by the slogan “Not in Our Name,” reinforces a picture of Jews as a monolith, while contributing to an overemphasis on Jewish culpability for Israel's actions. This approach may underemphasize “material processes of capital and geopolitics,” like the weapons industry's bottom line and American interests in the Middle East. “What ultimately matters is not an abstract notion of Zionism as a totalizing spiritual contaminant upon the Jewish people,” he writes, “but the ways in which American Jews, alongside all other Americans, hold multiple kinds of material relationships to Israel.”In the episode, Jewish Currents editor-in-chief Arielle Angel and associate editor Mari Cohen talk with Danforth-Appell about his article and the questions it raises. Even given the diversity among Jews, can we abandon collective complicity while so many Jews materially support Zionism? Why aren't we seeing more mass anti-war organizing, where people can show up as Americans? And what are the limits of a Jewish politics of collective complicity?

The Net Zero project in Great Britain, so the country does it's part to stop climate change, has a true believer behind it in leftist Prime Minister Keir Starmer. But recent opinion polls show the public is starting to turn dramatically against it, especially when the economic costs become increasingly real. A London Times poll in November found that 92% of the British public viewed Labour's specific Net Zero plans—particularly the 2030 clean power goal—as unrealistic. Despite a foolish drive to “deindustrialize” the UK, force residents to buy expensive heat pumps, and reducing agriculture, the government's own Climate Change Committee frets that the efforts are woefully inadequate. Is the whole project in danger of collapsing due to the weight of its utter infeasibility? Or is that wishful thinking for the people of Britain and climate realists worldwide?The Heartland Institute's Anthony Watts, Sterling Burnett, Linnea Lueken, Jim Lakely will discuss this topic and more with special guest Lois Perry, the director of Heartland UK/Europe. We will also cover some of the Crazy Climate News of the Week, including the closing of an EPA museum that no one knew existed, how clinical climate anxiety continues to rise, and how global warming is causing your dog to stress out.

“Are you a classical school?” It's a question many parents and educators will have to answer at some point. St. Martin's Academy in Fort Scott, Kansas, likes to say they're not exactly classical—more like medieval. At St. Martin's, a boys' boarding school and working farm for grades 9-12, Adam Taylor and a team of educators seek to nurture authentic masculinity, awaken wonder, and heal the imagination. This week on HeightsCast, Mr. Taylor talks with us about the vision of St. Martin's, and gives us ideas we can take into our own understanding of boys' education.

During a time when political conversations are marked by deep division, polarization, and challenging moral questions, what resources do evangelicals have to think and act critically, coherently, and theologically about public life?In their new book, Hopeful Realism: Evangelical Natural Law and Democratic Politics, political theorists Dr. Jesse Covington of Westmont College, Dr Bryan T. McGraw of Wheaton College, and Dr. Micah Watson of Calvin College lay out an evangelical theory of the natural law and show how it can be employed within the context of our pluralist democratic order.Support the show

Despite centuries of experience designing and playing war games, there is still very little rigorous research on how to evaluate what makes a good game. What's the design goal? How much should (or even can) a game reflect reality? Are tighter or looser rules more likely to lead to productive learning? Is having fun important? That lack of rigorous analysis has historically stymied the wargaming profession, but a new generation of researchers want to push the field forward.Today, with both Danny Crichton and Laurence Pevsner on vacation, we bring back our independent Riskgaming designer Ian Curtiss to host David Banks. David is senior lecturer in wargaming at the Department of War Studies at King's College London, where his research focuses on the empirical evaluation of war games and how the craft can evolve in the years ahead. He is also the academic director of the King's Wargaming Network.Ian and David discuss the antecedents of wargaming, firming up the foundations of the field, why realism isn't as useful a metric as engagement, why balancing play and realism is so challenging, how to consider internal validity in games and why its important not just to evaluate a game as a whole, but also its constituent parts.Produced by ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Christopher Gates⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Music by ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠George Ko

More than three years after Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine, Alexander Vindman is out with a new book on U.S.-Ukraine relations. Vindman, who was born in Ukraine, is the retired Army lieutenant colonel who testified against President Trump in the 2019 impeachment hearings. In his new book, The Folly of Realism, Vindman argues that the United States has taken an incorrect position towards Russia and Ukraine since the collapse of the Soviet Union, a period spanning six American presidential administrations. In today's episode, he joins NPR's Mary Louise Kelly for a conversation that touches on what Vindman calls the Trump administration's "Russia First" policy, the case for investing in Ukraine and Taiwan, and when the conflict in Ukraine might end.To listen to Book of the Day sponsor-free and support NPR's book coverage, sign up for Book of the Day+ at plus.npr.org/bookofthedayLearn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy

After the collapse of the Soviet Union, six US presidential administrations of both parties pursued policies for Russia, Ukraine, and Eurasia that emboldened Russia, playing into its imperialist, centuries-long mythos of regional hegemony. The result: military aggression and full-scale invasion. It was all too foreseeable.In The Folly of Realism, leading national security expert and bestselling author Alexander Vindman argues that America's mistakes in Eastern Europe result from policymakers' fixation on immediate, short-term problem-solving and misplaced hopes and fears. He proposes a new long-term, values-based approach that insists on the fundamentals of liberal democracy and a rules-based world order.Alexander Vindman, lieutenant colonel US Army (retired), was the director for European Affairs on the White House's National Security Council, former Political-Military Affairs Officer for Russia, and diplomat at the American Embassies in Moscow and Kyiv. He is a senior fellow at the Foreign Policy Institute, the author of the New York Times–bestselling memoir Here, Right Matters, and leads the Here Right Matters Foundation organization which focuses on helping Ukraine win the war against Russia.Michael previously spoke with Col.

The Trump administration is pausing all shipments of military aid to Ukraine, potentially crippling the country's war effort against an invading Russia. Concurrently, the White House is pausing offensive cyber operations against Moscow and even mulling sanctions relief. Joining the program to discuss is former NSC Director of European Affairs Alexander Vindman, who in 2019 blew the whistle on Trump's threat to suspend military aid to try to get Zelensky to investigate Hunter Biden. Vindman's new book "The Folly of Realism: How the West Deceived Itself About Russia and Betrayed Ukraine" could hardly be more timely.    Also on today's show: Dr. Mary T.

Big news this week as EPA Administrator Lee Zeldin has reportedly told the White House it should officially abandon the ruling that greenhouse gases pose a threat to human health and welfare. The so-called “endangerment finding” for carbon dioxide and methane emissions forms the backbone of government regulations to “fight climate change” by heavily regulating everything from power plants to automobiles to stoves. Will President Trump repeal the endangerment finding? Can he do it unilaterally? We will discuss.Also, NOAA has “homogenized” the temperature data again. What does that mean? And does it correct the historical record, or distort it to support the alarmist global warming narrative?In “climate grift” news, Climate Crusader Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse has been caught backing legislation that funneled millions of taxpayer dollars to his wife's nonprofit organization. How convenient, and corrupt.And good news, everyone! The absurd plot of the climate disaster movie The Day After Tomorrow is not actually going to happen, despite alarmist “scientists” claiming it could be imminent.

Book two in the Jaguar Oracles series is out and wow!  Things are getting intense in Texas! Listen in to see what adventures away in this next exciting installment  note: links may be affiliate links that provide me with a small commission at no extra expense to you.   I seriously love the premise of this series.  How often do we forget "our name" (our identity) in Christ and need a wakeup call!  And is it just me or did we start this environmental mess in Eden? I mean, we didn't have to fight nature until then, right?  Animals had to pay the price for Adam's and Eve's disobedience too.   Wow.     The Way Back to Eden by Kurt Mahler A Mystical Journey to Restore the Natural Order as Hope Guides the Way In the lush wilderness of the Rio Grande Valley, a centuries-old prophecy is about to be fulfilled. The jaguars, once the revered rulers of the animal kingdom, have vanished-until a brave jaguar named Oracle begins a journey to summon the scattered tribes and restore their rightful place. A captivating quest and an unforgettable journey home. His quest intersects with young Paco and his extraordinary animal companions-a wise horse named Plod, a storytelling toad called Bog, and a clever raccoon named Patch-as they navigate the mystical landscapes of the Texas-Mexico borderlands and Brazos River bottomlands, a quest that weaves through ancient forests, mysterious towers, and sacred sanctuaries. Guided by ancient wisdom and the enduring loyalty of his animal friends, Oracle's epic journey leads him through a world on the brink of upheaval and filled with human drama as he discovers clues to the missing jaguarundi tribe and seeks to unite the warring animal factions. The fate of the Valley rests on Oracle recovering lost memories and rediscovering the original harmony between man and beast. From vast Texan ranches to ancient palm forests and from well-ordered zoos to untamed wilderness, The Way Back to Eden weaves together a rich tapestry of cultures, legends, and the immutable power of the natural world. Blending elements of magical realism, environmental advocacy, and pulse-pounding adventure, this sweeping tale transports readers into a vibrant, unforgettable world where Oracle's quest is to preserve the ancient balance and the interconnectedness of all living things. The Way Back to Eden, a deeply satisfying and thought-provoking fantasy epic, is the second installment in the six-volume Jaguar Oracle series. Discover the magic that awaits where ancient wildlife sanctuaries hold secrets, where ghosts and tree house hermits guide lost souls home, and where the path back to Eden might just be hidden in plain sight. Follow the trail. Find the tree. Change the world. Learn more about Kurt on his WEBSITE and follow him on GoodReads.

In this episode I have Shane Simpson from the "Calling all Turkeys" youtube channel on the show. Shane is a phenomenal turkey hunter, championship caller, and has been self filming his turkey hunts since he was a kid. Shane and I discussed the importance of realism in your calling from multiple aspects. We discussed how it is important to not only sound realistic, but to call with realistic tendencies. We also talk about knowing when to call, and when not to call, to a gobbler. We discussed calling from realistic locations to replicate a real hen, and how to traverse the woods more stealthy. We touch on the unsung art of woodsmanship, the importance of it and how it can be applied to your set ups when turkey hunting. This was an awesome episode, jam packed with turkey wisdom and I hope you all enjoy! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
