In Episode 485 of Hidden Forces, Demetri Kofinas speaks with Yale political scientist Ian Shapiro—author of After the Fall—about how the widespread optimism of the post–Cold War era gave way so rapidly to the fractured, combative politics of today, why American unilateralism hollowed out the very international institutions the US claimed to champion, and what it will take for mainstream democratic parties to recover their legitimacy in the populist era. The first hour traces the critical decisions of the 1990s and early 2000s that Ian believes set this unraveling in motion: the choice to enlarge NATO eastward and invest meaningfully in Russia's post-Soviet transition, and the NATO bombing of Yugoslavia as the first major military action taken without UN Security Council authorization. They then turn to  the unilateral invasion of Iraq as the seminal rupture in the international rules-based order, followed by the 2008 financial crisis and its aftermath, which delivered a parallel blow to the elite consensus that had governed Western countries since the onset of the Cold War. The second hour opens with the 2011 intervention in Libya and the doctrine of the responsibility to protect, which Shapiro argues was cynically deployed to topple Muammar Gaddafi, leaving behind a failed state and further discrediting the international norms it was meant to uphold. From there, they trace the cascading fallout across the Middle East and Europe—through Syria and Ukraine—to the present moment, before turning to the central political question of the age: whether mainstream parties can deliver an industrial policy and a model of inclusive growth capable of addressing the economic grievances and insecurities driving the populist revolt across the democratic world.

On Thursday, Rufus and Robert Wright (The God Test) talked about AI as a new stage in the evolution of intelligence — and about the very human traits already showing up in our machines: empathy, deception, power-seeking, seduction. Today, they ask the harder question: what happens when these machines become the object of a geopolitical arms race?

With Toy Story 5 introducing a new villain, Movie Mike explores a surprising Pixar pattern: many of the studio's greatest heroes and villains started with the exact same emotional wounds. From Jessie and Lotso to Buzz Lightyear and Syndrome, he breaks down how Pixar proves that it's not what happens to you that defines you…it's how you choose to respond! In the Movie Review, Mike gives his thoughts on Toy Story 5 starring Tom Hanks and Tim Allen. Woody, Buzz, Jessie and the crew find themselves going up against a new tablet named Lilypad, who thinks she knows what's best for Bonnie, setting up a battle where Toys vs. Tech. Mike shares how they tricked us into watching a remake, if it’s worth paying money to see in theaters and where he thinks it ranks in the franchise. In the Trailer Park, Mike talks about The Social Reckoning, a companion piece to The Social Network which came out in 2010. It focuses on the fallout of the 2021 Facebook leaks, following whistleblower Frances Haugen and Wall Street Journal reporter Jeff Horwitz as they expose the company's internal secrets. Mike wants to know if it’s too late for this movie and why Jesse Eisenberg turned it down. New Episodes Every Monday!

Alan Rozenshtein, Research Director at Lawfare, speaks with Robert Wright—author of "Nonzero," "The Moral Animal," "The Evolution of God," and "Why Buddhism Is True," and the writer behind the NonZero Newsletter and podcast—about his new book, "The God Test: Artificial Intelligence and Our Coming Cosmic Reckoning," which argues that AI is an evolutionary threshold on the scale of the entire history of life, that we are collectively failing to grasp its magnitude, and that rising to the challenge will require both new forms of international governance and an expansion of human moral and cognitive perspective.The conversation covers the multiple meanings of the book's title and what it means to view AI from a "cosmic" perspective; whether the public is finally starting to "feel the AGI" and where skepticism about AI's capabilities now comes from; how large language models are trained and Wright's claim that we have built "machines that create machines that think"; whether these systems genuinely understand, what Searle's Chinese Room and Nagel's "what is it like to be a bat?" have to do with it, and the open question of AI moral patienthood; the two families of AI risk—bad actors empowered by AI versus AI itself going rogue—and why the near-term disruption to jobs, relationships, and security may matter most; the "But China!" argument against AI regulation, China hawkishness, and why Wright thinks racing toward superintelligence is dangerously destabilizing; the case for "global governance" over "world government" and the perils of concentrating AI power at home; and why a book about AI and geopolitics closes with a call for mindfulness, cognitive empathy, and transcending the psychology of tribalism.To receive ad-free podcasts, become a Lawfare Material Supporter at www.patreon.com/lawfare.

In the Fun Half: Governor of Pennsylvania Josh Shapiro warns the DSA candidates that won their primaries that they won't be able to just engage in "performative politics" and eventually will have to deliver on their promises.

Join this deep conversation about what empathy really looks like in our institutions, our communities, and our leadership—especially at a time when empathy feels both urgent and under pressure.Dr. Terri Givens has been doing this work long before it became a headline or a corporate initiative. Terri is a Professor of Political Science at the University of British Columbia, and from 2021 to 2024, she served as the Provost's Advisor on the Strategy to Address Anti-Black Racism at McGill University. She is the former CEO of the Center for Higher Education Leadership and has partnered with colleges, universities, and ed-tech companies to drive innovation, equity, and excellence in higher education.Terri is the author of the new book, Reckoning: Creating Positive Change through Radical Empathy, as well as her past book, Radical Empathy: Finding a Path to Bridging Racial Divides. Her new book takes her work even further into how individuals and institutions can confront history and move toward meaningful change.Terri shares stories of early work at IBM, Intel, and L'Oréal Canada that both strengthened culture and moved the bottom line. She also speaks about her collaboration with the Menlo Park Police Department, where empathy became a practical tool for healing divides, improving communication, and synthesizing multiple perspectives across the city council, police, and the community. Terri shows us that empathy isn't a buzzword, a trend, or a “nice to have” in today's polarized world—it's a leadership competency, a community-building tool, and a catalyst for true connection and accountability.To access the episode transcript, go to www.TheEmpathyEdge.com, search by episode title.Listen in for…Where we actually are today in our quest for empathetic leadership and more human social systems, what's shifted since her first book, and what still needs to be done.The essential role empathy plays in DEIB and race relations, and why DEI is not some new concept from 2020. Real tactical guidance for how to create brave and safe spaces in your team or community. "Creating a brave and safe space was really important so that we weren't just attacking what the police were doing. It had to be an environment where we were trying to uplift rather than tear down." — Terri Givens Episode References: The Empathy Edge Podcast: Terri Givens: Radical Empathy to Bridge Racial DividesAbout Terri Givens, Professor and Author of Reckoning and Radical Empathy:Terri Givens is a Professor of Political Science at the University of British Columbia in Vancouver.

This week, Payson sits down for a candid conversation with Levi Leipheimer. They discuss his long road to processing his time in the WorldTour in the early 2000s, which was marked by remarkable professional success but marred by the doping scandal that shook the cycling world in the early 2010s. Levi talks about how he went from an idealistic kid in Montana dreaming of the WorldTour to his decision to take EPO. As is always the case, it's not a straightforward story, and it's taken him years to fully reckon with it. They also discuss how Payson's generation of riders did their own processing of the scandal, and how Levi views his career now. Check out Osprey's Campcore collection here: https://www.osprey.com/featured/collaborations/campcoreInstagram: @withpacepodcastYouTube: Payson McElveenEmail: howdy@withpace.cc

Today in the US, we celebrate Juneteenth, the commemoration of the emancipation of slaves in America. It's wonderful to note the moments of historical progress like Juneteenth. But we have to remember that beautiful language pales in comparison to beautiful acts.In today's episode, Ryan talks with General Ty Seidule about memory, monuments, and what it means to tell the truth about the past. They discuss the difference between memory and nostalgia, why commemoration should reflect our values, and how American history is full of heroes worth honoring. Ty Seidule served in the U.S. Army for more than three decades, retiring in 2020 as a brigadier general. He is a professor emeritus of history at West Point and received its distinguished faculty award. In 2021, Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin appointed Seidule to the Congressional Naming Commission tasked with redesignating Department of Defense assets which honor Confederates, where he was elected vice chair.Follow Ty on Instagram | @tyseidule

The AI industry promised a technological revolution. Instead, some of the biggest players are burning billions of dollars while demanding more data centers, more energy, more subsidies, and more government support. Meanwhile, their models — and the business model undergirding it — are rapidly failing. I'm joined by AI pioneer Gary Marcus to expose the growing cracks in the generative AI business model. OpenAI is reportedly losing tens of billions, while major tech companies slash token usage, cut spending, and confront the reality that the economics simply don't add up. Real AI innovation is moving away from the data center and LLM model at a time when companies are tripling down on debt-driven spending to prop it up. The future of AI will not look like ChatGPT. It is those tech bros, and the politicians who support them, who are holding up true technological innovation. Separately, but relatedly, I break down the latest political capitulations on the Iran deal, immigration, and how the "America First" agenda is being sold out to corporate interests.

This week on Sinica I'm joined by Robert Wright, author of The Moral Animal, Nonzero, and The Evolution of God, for a conversation that runs a little outside our usual beat, though China sits closer to its center than you'd expect. The occasion is his new book The God Test: Artificial Intelligence and Our Coming Cosmic Reckoning, which reads the AI revolution as the latest turn in a story going back billions of years. We get into the French Jesuit paleontologist Teilhard de Chardin's "noosphere," Bob's argument that we evolved large language models rather than engineered them, the cognitive empathy we've both long preached, and the two-word talking point — "But China!" — that Bob thinks is most likely to lead us astray.6:56 – Teilhard de Chardin, the noosphere, and why a planetary "global brain" has become necessary14:49 – Directionality without the mysticism: complexification, teleology, and the "cell's-eye view" worry21:57 – The God Test: is moral progress really the price of governing AI, and is that hopeless on a short clock?28:33 – Why Bob says we evolved large language models rather than built them, and the sycophancy problem that follows35:19 – Open weights and open source: a real safety argument, or competitiveness in safety's clothing?40:03 – Cognitive empathy as the master key, and the same capacity as an engine of deception48:06 – Arms-race fatalism and its limits: cheetahs, gazelles, and the rival who can pick up the phone53:40 – "But China": fear of Beijing, Anthropic and Amodei, Jeff Ding, and the chip-control backfire1:10:48 – Nonzero: game theory, common threats, and the takeoff scenarios that worry Bob most1:23:22 – Attribution error and projection, Ed Fredkin's old warning, and the actual first movePaying It Forward: Garrison Lovely, author of the forthcoming Obsolete (Nation Books) and the Substack of the same name on the AI race.Recommendations:Bob: Pantheon, the animated series on uploaded minds and emergent superintelligence; and the Crowded House song "Don't Dream It's Over."Kaiser: Kyle Chan's High Capacity podcast, especially his episode with Carnegie's Matt Sheehan, "Is China Getting Worried About AI?"; and Patrick O'Brian's Aubrey-Maturin novels.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

The reckoning of the shadow masculine is unfolding within us all. Each of us carries both divine and shadow aspects of the masculine and feminine energies, and right now the shadow masculine is being called into the light. It can appear as anger, resentment, fear, control, or a deep sense of powerlessness. Yet beneath these expressions often lies a disconnection from self. As old patriarchal structures continue to crumble both personally and collectively, many relationships and long-held dynamics are being challenged. This is not happening to punish us, but to reveal what has remained hidden in the shadows so it can be healed. In this powerful episode, Spirit explores this collective transformation and share six practical ways to transmute shadow masculine energy into greater self-awareness, empowerment, and freedom.

This week I'm continuing my coverage from this year's Fortress Festival as I'm joined by the legendary Yusaf 'Vicotnik' Parvez of Dødheimsgard for a wide-ranging discussion. We cover everything from the evolution of his creative process and the making of his recent masterpiece, Black Medium Current, to his reflections on growing older and whether there might be another Ved Buens Ende record somewhere down the road. On the Weekly News Rant, Sheriff Mike Scondotto returns to help me pass judgement on the latest singles from Archgoat, Speedslut, Faustian, Hulder and Devourment. We also discuss his thoughts on modern crowds, "Banana-gate", the hardcore bands that inspired him and, on my Swirly of the Week, lengthy sobbing over T-shirts worn by bands you don't like merits a one-way ticket to the Porcelain Bowl of Reckoning. PLUS: London's Vryxor basks in the glow of the Unsanctioned Filth spotlight with a sci-fi-inspired black metal odyssey in the form of their latest single, "Unsubmergeable".   Featured Bands Dødheimsgard: https://www.facebook.com/DODHEIMSGARD   Vryxor: https://vryxor.bandcamp.com/  Urgehal:  https://urgehal.bandcamp.com/    Visit intothenecrosphere.com for playlists and more.

Speaker: Rustin Smith --- Following the thread back to the good way.

Is the golden age of protein over, or is the market hiding something much worse? While mainstream pundits point to falling average retail prices as a sign of consumer fatigue or market saturation, the reality is far more dangerous. CPG brands are trapped in a brutal macroeconomic vice: unprecedented, structural commodity inflation for whey protein vs. an already strained consumer. In this content, I break down why the "health halo" of the protein market is approaching a catastrophic breaking point, how brands are quietly altering your favorite protein snacks, and why the ultimate threat to your protein powder might actually come from the butcher counter. In my latest content piece, I'll cover topics like:Pricing (ARP) Illusion: Why category prices look lower on paper while individual products (UPCs) are actually getting more expensiveProtein Product "Format Shift": How low-ticket, immediate-use items like RTD shakes are masking deep market friction▪️ Formulation Trap: Why substituting protein inputs isn't as simple as swapping sugar or fat, and how it leads to "chalky, brick-like" productsConsumer Surplus Theory: The exact economic mechanism that could trigger a massive market contractionSubstitution Threat: How government actions and downward price corrections in real whole foods (beef, poultry) could pull shoppers out of the center aisleIndustry Warning Signs: Sneaky ingredient changes happening right now across protein powders, protein bars, and lifestyle snacksUltimately, "protein mania" won't end because you stop wanting better nutrition...it will halt because the industry broke its promise of quality!

Amazon's expansion into the LTL market is raising big questions across the transportation industry. In this episode, Craig Fuller, Tom Albrecht, and attorney Matt Leffler examine why Forward Air could be a strategic acquisition target for Amazon and what such a move would mean for carriers, brokers, and shippers. The conversation explores Forward Air's unique airport-to-airport network, the controversial Omni Logistics merger, and the legal battles that reshaped one of freight's most closely watched companies. The panel also breaks down Amazon's growing logistics ambitions and whether it can successfully build or buy its way into the LTL sector. Beyond M&A, the discussion turns to trucking safety, insurance requirements, freight fraud, FMCSA reforms, and the industry's ongoing struggle with outdated regulations. The hosts analyze proposed safety initiatives from the Truckload Carriers Association, debate higher insurance minimums, and discuss why stronger oversight of CDL training, ELD certification, and carrier registration could reshape the trucking landscape. ⁠Follow the Freight Expectations Podcast⁠ ⁠Other FreightWaves Shows⁠ Learn more about your ad choices.

In this conversation, he is candid about what held his application back: clinical and volunteering experiences that started too late because of COVID restrictions, and experience essays that tried to impress readers with technical organic chemistry detail instead of showing personal growth. He also walks through the parallel stress of watching his girlfriend navigate her own application cycle simultaneously, and the practical decisions they made to try to stay geographically close. Justin reflects honestly on the gap year question — he applied straight through from undergrad and now sees real value in what a year away from school can offer. If you are sitting on a waitlist right now or already thinking about a second cycle, his perspective on holding hope while still preparing a backup plan is exactly the kind of grounded, real-world guidance that is hard to find.What You'll Learn:- Why starting clinical experiences late can limit what you are able to write about, even if the experiences themselves are meaningful- How experience essays go wrong when they try to educate the reader on a research topic instead of showing growth and reflection- What a realistic reapplication process looks like — from rereading old essays to submitting a focused second cycle- How to hold on to waitlist hope without letting it delay your preparation for another cycle- What the logistics of a late waitlist acceptance actually involve, from housing to orientation timelines

"What I vividly recall is after getting to Tanforan and walking into this horse stable, and Mom… putting down her suitcase and just crying.”This is the story of Japanese American incarceration.In February 1942, shortly after the United States enters the war, FDR signs Executive Order 9066, beginning the forced removal of Japanese Americans from their West Coast homes and lives. Some 120,000 civilians—many of them American citizens, none of them charged with a crime—are sent to camps across the American West and South. Their constitutional rights are denied in the name of national security.Even as families struggle to carry on inside the barbed wire, legal challenges arise. Three Japanese Americans fight their way to the Supreme Court, forcing the nation's highest court to confront a question it would rather avoid: can the Constitution be suspended for an entire ethnic group in wartime? And when the court finally rules—does the answer change anything at all?____Connect with us on HTDSpodcast.com andpreorder Prof. Jackson's new bookgo deep into episode bibliographies and book recommendationsjoin discussions in our Facebook communityget news and discounts from The HTDS Gazette come see a live showget HTDS merchor become an HTDS premium member for bonus episodes and other perks.HTDS is part of Audacy media network.
