Der Dirigent Howard Griffiths ist schon ewig im Geschäft, aber gefühlt so umtriebig wie nie zuvor: er dirigiert Orchester in halb Europa, produziert gleich reihenweise neue CDs, und schreibt in jüngerer Zeit auch Musikbücher für Kinder wie etwa «Barboza und der klingende Baum». 1:15 - Auftakt Musik gegen den Novemberblues: «Tango for November» von und mit Fumio Yasuda. 5:00 - Aktuell Regelmässig werden ihre Auftritte - Paris oder London, jetzt auch in Zürich - von Protesten begleitet.

Lange sah es so aus, als würde das russische Regime vom Krieg gegen die Ukraine sogar profitieren: In den Jahren 2023 und 2024 wuchs die Wirtschaft des Landes deutlich, und auch die militärischen Reserven schienen gewaltig. Beides aber sei ein Trugschluss gewesen, sagt Marcus Keupp, Militärökonom der Hochschule ETH Zürich, im Wirtschaftspodcast von Capital. „Das Kalkül war, dass diese Reserven länger reichen als die Ukraine durchhält oder der Westen Sanktionen erlässt. Dieses Kalkül ist nicht aufgegangen.“ Nach Ansicht Keupps, der mit empirischen Methoden die Abnutzung der Streitkräfte untersucht, nähert sich das Land einem für Präsident Wladimir Putin heiklen Moment: „Wir sind jetzt an einem Wendepunkt: Die Reserven gehen zur Neige, und die wirtschaftliche Wahrheit über Russland kommt ans Licht“, sagt er. „Da setzt eine Entzauberung ein.“ Wirklich eng werde es dann, wenn der Ölpreis, also der Preis für das wichtigste russische Exportgut, dauerhaft auf dem aktuell niedrigen Niveau bleibe: „Dann schmelzen die Reserven rapide und Russland bekommt Riesenprobleme mit seinem Staatsbudget.“Eine Produktion von RTL+ Podcast.Host: Nils Kreimeier.Redaktion: Lucile Gagnière.Produktion: Andolin Sonnen. +++Weitere Infos zu unseren Werbepartnern finden Sie hier: https://linktr.ee/diestundenull +++60 Tage lang kostenlos Capital+ lesen - Zugriff auf alle digitalen Artikel, Inhalte aus dem Heft und das ePaper.

Panzer, Satelliten, Drohnenabwehrsysteme: Die Auftragsbücher von Rüstungsfirmen wie Rheinmetall oder der Hensoldt-Gruppe sind voll. Anders als vor Beginn der russischen Vollinvasion in die Ukraine werden Waffenhersteller inzwischen als attraktive Arbeitgeber wahrgenommen, die für Demokratie und Rechtsstaatlichkeit unverzichtbar sind. Vergessen scheint die Zeit, in der Rüstungskonzerne misstrauisch beäugt wurden, etwa weil sie Exportgenehmigungen umgingen oder autoritäre Regime wie Saudi-Arabien belieferten. Wie berechtigt ist der neue Ruf der Rüstungsindustrie?

Welcome to a new episode of the EUVC Podcast, where our good friends Dan Bowyer, Mads Jensen, Lomax Ward, and Andrew Beebe (Managing Director at Obvious Ventures) dig into the headlines shaping Europe's venture, policy, and tech future.This week, the crew dives deep into automation and AI's real-world impact:Amazon's plans to replace half a million jobs with robots, the question of whether AI can truly spark a new industrial revolution in Europe, the UK's new AI sandbox experiment, and an update on the long-awaited 28th Regime—the EU's bid for a unified startup entity.They also unpack China's automation surge, Europe's productivity crisis, and whether policy and politics are keeping pace with the technology curve.
A caminho das presidenciais, Ângela Silva escreve na revista do Expresso um ensaio político sobre o caráter decisivo das próximas eleições. Há quatro candidatos para duas vagas, numa segunda volta unanimemente esperada. Os dois maiores partidos da democracia, que deram ao país os últimos quatro chefes de Estado, apresentam candidatos que não entusiasmam (Marques Mendes e António José Seguro) e, do outro lado, há um candidato (André Ventura) contra o sistema e outro (Gouveia e Melo) vindo de fora do sistema partidário. E há quatro candidatos dos partidos mais pequenos. O que está em causa? O alinhamento direita-esquerda ainda fará sentido? Poderá haver desistências?See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Ben Hodges on US Policy, European Security, and Ukraine's FutureIn this insightful discussion with retired Lieutenant General Ben Hodges, we delve into the complexities of current US and European policies regarding Ukraine. We explore Europe's hesitance to fully commit, the impact of mixed signals from the Trump administration, and the implications of lifting limitations on deep strike munitions. Additionally, Hodges sheds light on internal power struggles within the US administration and the potential consequences of diminished legal oversight within the military. The conversation also touches on the resilience of the Russian public and military, and the existential challenges facing European democracies. The episode concludes with a recommendation to watch 'Kyiv of Mine,' a documentary series highlighting life in Ukraine's capital before and during the war.----------CHAPTERS:00:00 Introduction and Setting the Scene00:22 Current State of US and European Policies02:10 Military Strategies and Decisions04:12 Internal Struggles and Legal Concerns08:53 Russian Public Sentiment and Military Morale11:43 The Broader Implications for Democracy13:42 Conclusion and Final Thoughts----------LINKS:https://twitter.com/general_benhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ben_Hodges https://cepa.org/author/ben-hodges/ https://warsawsecurityforum.org/speaker/hodges-ben-lt-gen/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/ben-hodges-1674b1172/ ----------SILICON CURTAIN FILM FUNDRAISERA project to make a documentary film in Ukraine, to raise awareness of Ukraine's struggle and in supporting a team running aid convoys to Ukraine's front-line towns.https://buymeacoffee.com/siliconcurtain/extras----------SUPPORT THE CHANNEL:https://www.buymeacoffee.com/siliconcurtainhttps://www.patreon.com/siliconcurtain----------TRUSTED CHARITIES ON THE GROUND:Save Ukrainehttps://www.saveukraineua.org/Superhumans - Hospital for war traumashttps://superhumans.com/en/UNBROKEN - Treatment.

Jen Psaki observes that as Donald Trump gets more comfortable with his autocrat persona, the traits that made him a societal laughing stock all his life are coming to define his leadership style. And the mockery he has become has so diminished him that his opponents are emboldened to get in the way of his demolition of the United States.Donald Trump's lackeys in Congress are trying to support his effort to exact revenge on the public servants who tried to hold him to account. Former special counsel Jack Smith is a prominent name on Trump's enemies list, so it's not surprising that Congressional Republicans would try to discredit him with their investigating-the-investigators hearings. Former federal prosecutor Andrew Weissmann talks with Jen Psaki about why Jack Smith is smart to agree to participate in the hearings on the condition that they be public. Jen Psaki addresses questions posed at the White House press briefing, giving more honest and direct answers than the White House is willing to offer on questions ranging from Donald Trump's desecration of the White House to Trump's pardoning of a crypto-criminal business associate.

2025-10-24 | Silicon Wafers 040 | DAILY UPDATES | Is the Kremlin finally feeling real bite from Sanctions? Are oil sanctions by US and UK, and pressure on the shadow tankers, helping the first cracks emerge in Putin's war economy?Washington, London and Brussels just fired a coordinated broadside at the Kremlin's cash machine. Russia calls it “unfriendly.” China bristles. India flinches. Europe quietly tightens the noose on the shadow fleet. Meanwhile, small but telling acts of dissent flicker in St. Petersburg, and fresh reporting shows how the Russian “elite” keep looting their own house even as it burns. At last measures are being taken which may hasten Putin's demise. The sanctions blitz finally hits the bullseyeThe big move: the United States sanctioned Rosneft and Lukoil, Russia's two largest oil companies—the beating heart of Putin's war budget and war machine financing. This is the first Ukraine-related Russia sanctions package of Trump's second term—and according to some commentators, it's a sledgehammer. As Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent put it: “Given President Putin's refusal to end this senseless war, Treasury is sanctioning Russia's two largest oil companies that fund the Kremlin's war machine.” (Reuters, Oct 22, 2025)----------Partner on this video: KYIV OF MINE Watch the trailer now: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=arJUcE1rxY0'Kyiv of Mine' is a documentary series about Ukraine's beautiful capital, Kyiv.

Millions of working class workers are receiving alerts that their SNAP benefits will be gone in November as the Trump Regime's government shutdown continues. Pat Johnston explains why the MAGA Congress is more than willing to help The Regime keep the government closed: To keep the Epstein Files from being released as long as possible. Even if that means 1.4 million working class Michigan families will lose their food assistance. MAGA Republicans would rather inflict pain on the working class in order to protect Trump, and the billionaire donor class, from the Epstein Files.

Ansley Hutchinson, Tess Menzies, and Gabe Sanchez from the Boredwalk content team sit down to discuss all the recent(ish) happenings in the U.S., including: • MAGA's overtly racist complaints about Puerto Rican (i.e., U.S. citizen) megastar Bad Bunny's selection as the next Super Bowl half-time show headliner • Donnie Smoothbrain's ongoing efforts to distract everyone from the fact that The Regime continues to withhold the release of the full un-redacted Epstein Files • The Regime's wasteful use of tax dollars to call 800+ active duty military officers home to... berate their physical fitness and tell "jokes" that no one in attendance laughed at • Murderous misogyny from a red pilled incel that got swept under the rug by his well-connected family members • The enshittification of society thanks to AI slop • ICE's unprovoked attacks on U.S. citizens • Incorrect assumptions about the quality of life in California based on propaganda being spread by right-wing media outlets and people in other states who have never even been to California To that end, our hosts then check in on the latest dispatches from Troll-sylvania, this time from one of the aforementioned ill-informed California haters, followed by a more positive review for our Grievance Journal! In an effort to take things out on a high note, our hosts wrap up the episode by trading answers to questions pulled from our Delve Deck conversation card sets! This week we answer the questions "who was the worst bully when you were a kid?", "what's something you were warned about as a kid but turned out to be overblown?", and "what were the best things about your teen years?"

WOLA presents a new episode about El Salvador, coinciding with our awarding of our 2025 Human Rights Award to MOVIR, El Salvador's Movement of Victims of the Regime, which supports victims and families of arbitrary detentions carried out by President Nayib Bukele's government. In this conversation, Ricardo Valencia, assistant professor of public relations in the Department of Communications at California State University, Fullerton, explains why the current popularity of El Salvador's authoritarian president rests on a surprisingly fragile foundation. Dr. Valencia, a former journalist in El Salvador and an expert on political and activist communications, explains that Bukele is facing several challenges to his rule that even a slick propaganda operation cannot paper over. These include a lackluster economy, mainstream voters' discomfort with the regime's celebrations of cruelty and imprisonment, Bukele's relations with just one political party in the United States, the loss of emigration as an “escape valve” and a likely increase in deportations, and discontent with corruption. While Dr. Valencia doesn't foresee Bukele's downfall as imminent—he is very popular because of security gains and effective communications—the Salvadoran leader, he argues, is planting the seeds for a sharp drop in popularity. In the meantime, Valencia calls for constant, energetic accompaniment and defense of El Salvador's beleaguered civil society, independent media, and others fighting for democratic institutions and rights.
Vor Jahrzehnten umgebracht und anonym vergraben: Noch immer ruhen in spanischen Massengräbern tausende Überreste von Menschen, die dem Regime des Diktators Franco zum Opfer fielen. Ihre Exhumierung bleibt umstritten. Spanien tut sich schwer im Umgang mit der eigenen Geschichte. Eigentlich könnte dieses Jahr in Spanien als Jubiläumsjahr der Demokratie gelten. Denn genau vor 50 Jahren starb Diktator Francisco Franco, der das Land während fast vier Jahrzehnten mit harter Hand regiert hatte. Sein Tod am 27. November 1975 ebnete den Weg zu einer demokratischen Ordnung. Trotzdem herrscht in Spanien heute nicht durchgehend Feierlaune. In Sachen Aufarbeitung der eigenen Geschichte zieht sich ein weiter Graben durch die Gesellschaft. Stellvertretend dafür stehen die nach wie vor pendenten Exhumierungen von Opfern des Regimes. Viele Angehörige warten noch immer darauf, dass die Gebeine ihrer Grossväter oder Grossmütter in den Massengräbern identifiziert werden. Währenddessen streitet die Politik darüber, wie das Land mit dem Erbe der Diktatur umgehen soll. Wie soll es weitergehen mit den Ausgrabungen? Oder: Was soll mit dem gigantischen Monument «Valle de los Caídos» geschehen, das Francisco Franco im nordmadrilenischen Bergland errichten liess?

Welcome to our monthly conversation with Konstantin, who is one of the most respected voices on YouTube about what is happening Inside Russia. Konstantin Samoilov is a well-known YouTuber whose channel ‘Inside Russia' comments insightfully on Russia's decent into authoritarianism over the last few years. But now, like many others, he's outside Russia, with no idea of when he can return there. ----------Partner on this video: KYIV OF MINE Watch the trailer now: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=arJUcE1rxY0'Kyiv of Mine' is a documentary series about Ukraine's beautiful capital, Kyiv. The film production began in 2018, and much has changed since then. It is now 2025, and this story is far from over.https://www.youtube.com/@UCz6UbVKfqutH-N7WXnC5Ykg https://www.kyivofmine.com/#theprojectKyiv of Mine is fast paced, beautifully filmed, humorous, fun, insightful, heartbreaking, moving, hopeful. The very antithesis in fact of a doom-laden and worthy wartime documentary. This is a work that is extraordinarily uplifting. My friend Operator Starsky says the film is “Made with so much love. The film series will make you laugh and cry.” ----------DESCRIPTION:Deep Dive into Russia's Economic and Social Chaos: Insights with KonstantinJoin Jonathan and Konstantin as they discuss the latest movements within Russia's economy, energy market, and the increasing social instability.

George Selgin has spent over four decades thinking about money, banking, and economic history, and Tyler has known him for nearly all of it. Selgin's new book False Dawn: The New Deal and the Promise of Recovery, 1933–1947 examines what the New Deal actually accomplished—and failed to accomplish—in confronting the Great Depression. Tyler and George discuss the surprising lack of fiscal and monetary stimulus in the New Deal, whether revaluing gold was really the best path to economic reflation, how much Glass-Steagall and other individual parts of the New Deal mattered, Keynes' "very sound" advice to Roosevelt, why Hayek's analysis fell short, whether America would've done better with a more concentrated banking sector, how well the quantity theory of money holds up, his vision for a "night watchman" Fed, how many countries should dollarize, whether stablecoins should be allowed to pay interest, his stake in a fractional-reserve Andalusian donkey ownership scheme, why his Spanish vocabulary is particularly strong on plumbing, his ambivalence about the eurozone, what really got America out of the Great Depression, and more.

After a court temporarily blocked the deployment of Guard troops in Illinois, ICE agents began ramping up their operations around Chicagoland. They are now demanding that residents produce their papers—particularly if they have brown skin. Officers stand outside churches holding Spanish-language Mass or they go into tourist areas to confront people, including U.S. Citizens. If someone doesn't have an ID with them, they'll be detained. The power-hungry officials around Trump, including Stephen Miller, are likely behind the enhanced menacing. Meanwhile in Israel, the resilience of the surviving hostages—after a sustained campaign of deprivation—is worthy of celebration. Plus, the Hamas executions of Gazans, our American pharoah's comfort with Middle East strongmen, and even Newsmax says the new Pentagon press rules are a bridge too far. Gov. JB Pritzker and The Atlantic‘s Frank Foer join Tim Miller. show notes Sam's 'Bulwark Take' with former Amb.
