In a stark contrast to the past, the speaker highlights a concerning trend in Denver's crime statistics. Twenty-five years ago, 90% of Republicans and 87% of Democrats felt proud to be American. Fast forward to today, and the numbers have shifted dramatically. But is the narrative of a city in crisis accurate? The speaker digs into the data and reveals a more nuanced picture.This episode explores the complexities of crime and policy in Denver, where the numbers don't quite add up. The speaker examines the city's recent surge in homicides and the factors contributing to it. They also delve into the city's decision to abandon its automated license plate reader system, which was credited with helping to reduce crime. The speaker questions whether the city's policies are truly effective in addressing the issue.The conversation touches on the importance of understanding the root causes of crime and the role of policy in shaping the city's crime landscape. The speaker also discusses the impact of California's refinery closures on the state's energy independence and the potential consequences for the nation's security. They argue that the government's decision to prioritize environmental regulations over energy production has led to a strategic vulnerability.If you're interested in a more in-depth analysis of the issues facing Denver and the nation, tune in to this episode to hear the speaker's thought-provoking insights and arguments.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Ronald Stein discusses California's “refinery crisis,” arguing that heavy regulation is driving remaining refineries to consider leaving, after recent closures and a reported 17% decline from peak refining. He says California is an “energy island” with no pipelines over the Sierra Nevada, so most fuel must be made in-state; otherwise it would come from foreign refineries, potentially in Asia, raising costs, emissions, and national security concerns for military and international airports, ports, and trucking. Stein contends wind and solar only generate electricity and cannot replace refined-oil products used for transportation fuels and countless derivatives. He criticizes politicians and the press for not addressing practical replacement plans and advocates “energy literacy.”00:00 Refinery Crisis Begins00:42 California Energy Island01:22 Fuel Demand Reality Check02:03 Refineries Leaving Warning02:58 Climate Policy Pushback04:12 Voters Politicians Press05:04 Wind Solar Limits06:00 No Backup Plan06:14 Regulators And Newsom08:49 Oil Derivatives Explained09:47 Crude Types And Fracking11:46 How Regulations Drive Out13:15 Outsourcing Emissions Abroad14:39 Import Dependence Grows16:29 Shipping And Port Bottlenecks18:34 Clean Air But High Demand20:20 National Security Takeover Talk22:37 Campaign Silence And Media23:29 Planes Need Real Power24:51 Battery Plane Reality Check25:36 Electricity Imports Warning25:56 Importing Power and Fuel26:17 AI Power Crunch29:08 Refinery Rules and Costs30:54 Foreign Dependence Risks32:25 Scaling Alternatives34:35 Energy Literacy and Policy36:25 Nuclear Future39:26 Wind Reality Check41:32 California Oil Underfoot44:33 Oil Seeps and Tar Pits46:36 Zero Emissions Reality49:45 Global Poverty and Demand50:45 Where to Follow Ronald=========Slides, summaries, references, and transcripts of my podcasts: https://tomn.substack.com/p/podcast-summariesMy Linktree: https://linktr.ee/tomanelson1
“Recorded from Woolwich, on the other side of the river Thames. The sound of the factory, along with planes coming and going from City airport, boats and the river all mixed together to form a drone like wall of sound.”
Since its construction in 1978, Aughinish has been the largest alumina refinery in Europe and one of the largest employers in the Limerick area. In recent weeks, reporting from The Irish Times and the organised crime and corruption reporting project has shown that alumina refined in Aughinish is being sent to Russia. From there, their investigation shows aluminum once refined in Aughinish has allegedly ended up in arms for the Russia's war in Ukraine.Conor Gallagher is the crime and security correspondent at The Irish Times and has helped reveal the findings of this investigation. He joined Pat this morning to discuss
(5) Michael Bernstam analyzes the humiliating Ukrainian strike on a St. Petersburg oil terminal during Putin's flagship economic forum. Russia's energy sector faces a crisis, forcing a ban on refined exports like gasoline due to refinery damage. Consequently, Russia must increase crude exports to China and India.
A row has erupted over continued exports of alumina from the Aughinish refinery on the Shannon Estuary to Russia, with the Ukrainian Embassy in Ireland expressing what it describes as "serious concern" about the trade. The controversy centres on claims that alumina produced at the Russian-owned plant in County Limerick could ultimately be ending up in supply chains linked to Russia's military-industrial complex. The company insists it is fully compliant with all EU sanctions and trade regulations, while the Government has launched an investigation and says it is awaiting the findings before any decisions are made. The issue raises difficult questions about sanctions, European energy and industrial security, Ireland's support for Ukraine, and the future of one of the country's most significant manufacturing employers. To discuss the political and European dimensions of the story, Alan Morrissey was joined by Newmarket-on-Fergus native and Professor of Politics at Dublin City University, Donnacha Ó'Beacháin, and Billy Kelleher, Fianna Fáil MEP for Ireland South.

Michael Bernstam discusses the impact of Ukrainian drone strikes on the Russian oil market, noting that strikes on refineries and ports have forced Russia to export more crude oil at discounted prices instead of high-value refined products. Simultaneously, U.S. oil production has hit record levels, significantly influencing global market prices. (9)1905 BAKU
The cost of fuel across Australia has come off its highs, despite there being no resolution yet to the war in Iran and the closure of the Strait of Hormuz. But don't get comfortable because the real pain from the global oil crunch hasn't really hit us yet.

What happens when the business you dreamed of building starts depending on you for everything? In this episode, DJ sits down with Katie Reschny of The Elm Body Co. to talk about the messy, emotional, and deeply human side of growing a wellness business beyond yourself. Katie shares the behind-the-scenes reality of building a multi-location massage and bodywork business with a team of 12+ practitioners including the identity shifts, leadership challenges, systems, emotional labor, and hard decisions that rarely get talked about publicly. This isn't one of those conversations that makes growth sound glamorous. It's a conversation about what actually happens after you become "successful." The pressure of being the one everyone depends on. The guilt of stepping away from hands-on work. The fear of becoming a "bad boss." The emotional weight of leading people while still trying to protect your own energy. Katie opens up about what it looked like to go from massage therapist to business owner… and eventually into a leadership role she never originally planned for. Together, DJ and Katie unpack: Why being fully booked is not the same thing as having freedom The surprising emotional challenges of leading a team How systems and structure actually create safety (not corporate coldness) The tension between wanting to help everyone and protecting your own capacity Why many wellness business owners accidentally build businesses that trap them The mindset shifts required to step out of the treatment room How leadership changes your relationship with time, money, and responsibility What it really takes to create a business that doesn't rely entirely on your hands This episode will especially resonate with massage therapists and wellness business owners who: feel overwhelmed by the weight of responsibility are struggling to get clients to book with their team instead of just them want to work less without feeling guilty are afraid of losing the heart of their business as they grow feel stuck between "I can't keep doing this forever" and "I don't know what comes next" There's also a powerful conversation in this episode around sustainability. Not just financial sustainability. Personal sustainability. Emotional sustainability. Physical sustainability. Because eventually, almost every massage therapist reaches a point where they quietly wonder: "Can I keep doing this the same way forever?" And this conversation is about what comes next. --- *Brought to you by GlossGenius.* Are you dealing with gaps in your schedule? Clients who don't rebook?

PREVIEW for Later Today: Ukrainian Strikes Undermine Russian Public Support for Endless War. Guest: John Hardie. John Hardie analyzes how long-range Ukrainian drone strikes on critical infrastructure, like oil refineries, damage Russian morale. Environmental impacts and leadership failures to protect facilities exacerbate unspoken public frustration with the ongoing conflict.1856 BLACK SEA
An oil analyst says refining issues in the nearby Great Lakes region has contributed to a gas price spike in Minnesota. The platform GasBuddy says the average price in the state as of today is about $4.45 a gallon, up nearly 30 cents from earlier this week. Minnesota Democratic lawmakers held a sit-in overnight at the Capitol.... demanding that Republican House Speaker Lisa Demuth let a gun violence prevention bill face a House vote.
Russian oil production and exports are declining due to technological sanctions and successful Ukrainian drone strikes on refineries. Mikhail Bernstam notes that Russia's air defenses have proven ineffective against low-cost, highly destructive drone attacks. (12/16)1930 "THE BEETLE HORDE"
Eleven refinery and fuel facility fires across four continents in roughly 60 days — that's the alarming backdrop for this episode of Process Safety with Trish and Traci. Process safety expert Trish Kerin examines whether the 2026 incidents are a statistical anomaly or a symptom of deeper systemic pressure. She points to deferred maintenance, narrowing margins and the normalization of risk during periods of production stress as key contributing factors. Kerin also addresses the unique vulnerabilities of new facilities and aging infrastructure. Her bottom line: know your controls, check that they're working and talk to your people. Stick around for the bonus material at the end.
U.S. crude oil production averaged a record 13.6 MMb/d in 2025, up nearly 1.6 MMb/d from 2023, but crude export volumes remained remarkably stable — at or very near 4.1 MMb/d — until a recent Iran-related surge. A key reason: “capacity creep” expansion projects at several Gulf Coast refineries.
Day 1,533.Today, as Russia refused to follow Kyiv's proposed ceasefire, killing at least 26 civilians, Kyiv responded by hitting targets 1500 km into Russia's territory. Meanwhile, the corruption scandal uncovered in Ukraine last summer continues to send shockwaves across the country, possibly touching Zelensky himself. Ukraine's Chief negotiator, Rustem Umerov, himself under investigation in the probe, arrives in Miami for the first talks since the beginning of the war against Iran.

Hey Friends I am still fighting a rare but tough cold and so I was not able to produce a news segment today but I do have a GREAT conversation with a brilliant first time guest that I think you will love I hope you had a great weekend and I am happy we made to to May together All of Atima's Links Named to Ebony Magazine's "Power 100" list of emerging leaders and Jet Magazine's "40 Under 40" list, Atima Omara works and leads at the intersection of electoral politics and issue advocacy in the progressive movement. She is a political strategist, advocate, trainer, leader, and speaker with significant political, government, and non-profit experience, and she is a sought-after commentator and strategist.

Silicon Bites Ep329 | 2026-05-01 | Russia is turning into burning hell, as the motor of its war economy goes up in flame – the oil infrastructure that Putin's power depends on is being systematically destroyed. Sow the wind, reap the whirlwind. «Посеешь ветер — пожнешь бурю» Comrade. Perm burns, deep in the Russian Urals as Lukoil's largest refinery is hit and Tuapse is smacked for the fourth time. It is 30 April 2026. The city of Perm, in the Russian Urals, sits more than fifteen hundred kilometres from the Ukrainian border. It is, by any conventional military measure, supposed to be safe. It is the sort of place Russian state media has spent four years assuring its citizens is permanently beyond the reach of Ukraine's response.----------SUPPORT THE CHANNEL:https://www.buymeacoffee.com/siliconcurtainhttps://www.patreon.com/siliconcurtainhttps://www.gofundme.com/f/scaling-up-campaign-to-fight-authoritarian-disinformation----------SILICON CURTAIN LIVE EVENTS - FUNDRAISER CAMPAIGN Events in 2025 - Advocacy for a Ukrainian victory with Silicon Curtainhttps://buymeacoffee.com/siliconcurtain/extrasOur events of the first half of the year in Lviv, Kyiv and Odesa were a huge success.

No one shows up to work expecting to make history, but today's story shows how one small, irreversible decision created the one of the worst days at work in US History. If that “fork in the road” moment had played out in any other way, today's episode would mostly just be me chatting up Texans and offering up some gardening tips.On today's episode: you will find out why parts of Texas smell like money, and why that money smells unbreathably pungent and caustic; we will explore how there can come a point where calling something loud loses all meaning, and then your skin blows off; and we will learn about a disaster so catastrophic, that people who said “well, I'm glad that's all over with” were treated to an encore.And because you are listening on Patreon… you will hear about a river or two that defied convention by bursting into flames; you will learn about the time a German industrial site tried to fly into space because it's standard operating procedures director was actually a potted plant wearing a tie; and you will find out how British Petroleum basically became the Beatles of oil and gas disasters.They say everything's bigger in Texas, and I believe it. You will too, after you understand the scale of today's event and the resulting death toll. We'll spend our time in Texas City, and I do make a point in the episode that Texas is a fine place, but if you had to pick a part of visit, Texas City might not be it. It's certainly not for the faint of heart. Who would have thunk that the densest petrochemical infrastructure on Earth would make for a not-so-great picnic spot, but a great place to watch 4,000 pound ship anchors arc across the sky. It is my genuine pleasure to return here (hey Texas). We have a lot of listeners there, and I look forward to returning again in the future. In fact, if you're from the Lone Star State and have a favourite disaster in mind, please chime in. I'm sorry if I'm a little under the weather in this episode. I'm was a little under the weather while making it, so I apologize if I any ennui got in the pudding. If it helps, the next episode will be bloodless and cheerier, but bloodless in a way that might actually make you wish for blood. You'll just have to wait and see.–––––THANK YOU.

Patrick opens the show with a powerful cold open featuring an election worker's disturbing testimony about fraud in the 2020 Michigan election, exposing how stolen elections lead to selected leaders who push destructive policies that crush everyday Americans. From skyrocketing energy costs in Michigan where electric bills could rise $2,000 per year under the state's aggressive wind and solar mandate to Marylanders now paying the highest electric bills in the nation, Patrick connects the dots: Democratic policies, willful ignorance, and special interests are deliberately taking more “meat off the bone” from working families while gaslighting the public.Refinery expert Mike Ariza joins the show to deliver a sobering warning about California's collapsing energy infrastructure. With refinery capacity down 35% since 2023 and growing reliance on foreign imports, Mike explains how policy-driven shutdowns are creating a fragile system that could lead to fuel shortages, economic collapse, and even national security risks. He breaks down the worst-case scenarios and calls for immediate federal intervention before it's too late.In the final block, Patrick highlights the escalating absurdity coming from the left: Rep. Terri Sewell asking RFK Jr. if he's ever “reparented a black child,” one-party Democratic rule in Colorado producing disastrous results, and Justice Clarence Thomas warning that progressivism is fundamentally incompatible with America's founding principles. From stolen elections to energy crises and cultural gaslighting, this episode makes one thing crystal clear the consequences of selected leadership are hitting Americans hard, and the time to push back is now.
Day 1,516.Today, as President Zelensky warns of increased Russian military activity in neighbouring Belarus, we discuss weekend Ukrainian air raids targeting oil refineries around Moscow. We then examine a shock election result that has brought another pro-Russia leader to power within both the EU and NATO, following in the footsteps of Hungary's Viktor Orbán. And later, we speak to a veteran foreign correspondent who spent 25 years in Russia – and has made more than a dozen trips to Ukraine since the full-scale invasion – for his memories of how Vladimir Putin built a system of ever greater repression and violence.Contributors:Francis Dearnley (Host on Ukraine: The Latest). @FrancisDearnley on X.Dominic Nicholls (Host on Ukraine: The Latest). @DomNicholls on X.With thanks to Marc Bennetts – foreign correspondent at The Times of London.

We report on a continued surge in Ukrainian airstrikes against high-value Russian targets, and consider whether the air war in Russia's war against Ukraine is beginning to tilt in Kyiv's favour. We also examine developments in Ukraine's domestic politics, as former presidential aide Andriy Yermak faces scrutiny from the country's anti-corruption authorities.
