    P&C drink and review Manor Hill Brewing's Dunkel, then wonder if the U.N. still matters. The United Nations was founded after World War II with an ambitious mission: prevent global war, promote peace, and help nations cooperate on the world's biggest problems.But nearly eighty years later, a fair question arises: does it do anything useful?The boys take a practical look at what the U.N. actually does today. It clearly hasn't stopped major conflicts — from Ukraine to the Middle East — and it hasn't been the engine that lifted countries out of poverty. So what role does it really play?We dig into the less glamorous side of the organization: peacekeeping missions that try to keep fragile countries from sliding back into civil war, humanitarian programs that feed millions of people, refugee operations, disease control, and the quiet international standards that keep things like aviation and shipping functioning smoothly.But that leads to deeper questions:* Is the U.N. a meaningful institution — or mostly a talking shop?* Does it solve problems, or just manage them?* Would the world look any different if it didn't exist?* And if it's not preventing wars or creating prosperity, what exactly is its purpose?It's a conversation about global institutions, unintended consequences, and the difference between what an organization was created to do and what it actually does.

    Are you still following a career blueprint that was designed for a world that no longer exists? As we navigate 2026, the traditional "rules" of professional growth are being rewritten, yet so many mid-career women are still holding themselves back by trying to play an outdated game. In this episode, I'm diving deep into why the career advice we were given a decade ago is actually sabotaging our progress today. I share why "staying the course" can sometimes lead to stagnation and how you can shift your perspective to navigate this new landscape with confidence. From the rise of AI to the strategic power of the "job hopper" label, it's time to stop settling for a career that fits your past and start redesigning one that fuels your future. What You'll Learn in This Episode:The Expiry Date of Traditional Advice: Why the "proven" strategies of the past are now the biggest hurdles for mid-career women. The Power of the Pivot: Why I've embraced "job hopping" as a tool for advancement rather than a mark of inconsistency. Navigating the AI Shift: How to focus on your unique human value so that technological changes become your competitive advantage.  Career Redesign vs. Career Recovery: How to move from just "getting through the week" to intentionally engineering a path that aligns with your personal growth. Action Steps:Audit Your Internal Rules: Identify one piece of "standard" career wisdom you're still following (like staying in a role for a minimum number of years) and ask if it actually serves your 2026 goals. Give Yourself Permission to Move: Stop viewing a career change as a "restart." View it as a strategic upgrade to a version of work that fits your current season of life. Prioritize Navigation over Path: In a changing economy, your ability to navigate and adapt is more valuable than any linear ladder. Start looking for the moves that keep you agile. Ready to Redesign Your Career? If you're feeling the tug to move but aren't sure how to navigate the current market, I'm here to help you get unstuck.

    Professor David K. Menon joins us for an in-depth exploration of Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI). As the Founding Director of the Neurosciences Critical Care Unit at Addenbrooke's Hospital, Professor Menon has been instrumental in shaping modern understanding of TBI physiology, monitoring, and management.In this episode, we break down intracranial pressure physiology in a way that translates directly to roadside decision-making, examining how brain swelling, cerebral perfusion, and autoregulation respond to early interventions. We focus on hypotension and hypoxia, the two most powerful drivers of secondary brain injury, and why the pre-hospital phase represents a critical window to influence outcomes long before CT imaging or neurosurgical care.We also explore the evidence for pre-hospital hypertonic therapy, discussing when it may be beneficial, where its limitations lie, and how it should (and should not) fit into contemporary practice. Practical considerations around airway management and ventilation are covered, including CO₂ targets, RSI decision-making, and strategies to avoid iatrogenic harm.Finally, we look ahead to emerging research and evolving concepts in TBI care, new physiological insights, changing targets, and innovative approaches aimed at reducing secondary brain injury, highlighting what pre-hospital clinicians should be thinking about now and in the years to come.Relevant resources and research networks:TBI-Reporter: https://tbi-reporter.uk/CENTER-TBI (Collaborative European NeuroTrauma Effectiveness Research in TBI): https://www.center-tbi.eu/This episode is essential listening for anyone involved in pre-hospital, retrieval, or critical care treating patients with traumatic brain injury.

    Today on Joe Oltmann Untamed, We're fired up and diving straight into the cultural war that's tearing at the fabric of this country. We start with Yuri Bezmenov's chilling 1983 warning, useful idiots pushing Marxist agendas only to be crushed once the system they helped build takes full control. Look around schools, media, and culture are saturated with it. Social justice warriors are the foot soldiers, but history shows they're the first ones crushed when the revolution turns. We're living that warning right now.We expose the betrayal on our own side too—Milo calling out paid attacks on Candace Owens, leading to questioning motives, and the same old pattern of grifters and sellouts sowing confusion for a paycheck. Meanwhile, we've got LGBTQ influencers turning surrogate babies into clickbait content, trans surgeries exploding under Biden's watch, and a Wisconsin hearing where a “they/them/she/him” activist can't even keep pronouns straight. Add in Colorado's Rep. Ken DeGraaf correctly calls out a trans legislator as “Mr.” while the left screams discrimination it's all part of the same playbook to erode norms and punish anyone who dares speak the truth.This episode is a gut-check for every parent, patriot, and person who's sick of watching society normalize chaos. From Muslim prayer in classrooms to violent attacks on conservative kids, useful idiots parroting lies, and the slow destruction of basic decency, we're laying it all out. Tune in for the raw, no-holds-barred truth because if we don't call it what it is, we lose everything. You won't walk away the same.

    It is difficult to hold truth and love together in our culture today, especially when we're pressured to accept that there are different kinds of love and different truths to live by. One temptation we ultimately face is to place love above truth, to be tolerating and accepting of beliefs and behaviors that God does not accept nor tolerate. In giving in to this temptation, many churches have died or are dying, and many have been deceived through their false teaching. Another temptation is to place truth above love, to treat those who are less than “perfect” as objects of God's wrath rather than objects of His mercy. In giving in to this temptation, many churches have died or are dying, and many have been scarred spiritually and emotionally, believing they don't belong. In order for us to be faithful and effective witnesses, we need to hold to the truth of God's Word while also proclaiming and living out His love, acknowledging that none of us measures up to His standard, but that there is grace and forgiveness available to all who repent and turn to the Lord.

    In this episode of the Tactical Dent Tech Podcast, John Highley breaks down a major shift happening in social media marketing — and why most technicians are focused on the wrong metric. After recently crossing 8 million total views in just over 130 days of consistent posting, John explains: Why followers matter less than ever How algorithms now serve content based on behavior, not who someone follows Why views are the new currency How friction in platform design reduced follow growth The psychology behind engagement and swipe behavior Why local tagging and geo-positioning matter more than you think This episode dives into the evolution of social media: Platforms now track: Watch time Scroll speed Hover time Click behavior Location tagging Engagement patterns And that means the playing field is leveling. You no longer need a million followers to dominate your market. You need: Strong positioning Relevant content Clear local targeting Consistency John also shares real-world results, including how a single reel brought back a previously hesitant customer for a $1,500 job — simply because the content resonated. If you're serious about using social media to attract pre-qualified clients instead of chasing vanity metrics, this episode is required listening. The mission isn't followers. The mission is positioning. And positioning wins.

What emerges is a masterclass in identifying the subtle linguistic tricks that maintain public misunderstanding about how government finance actually works. The conversation begins with Christian's astute observation about the phrase 'the government *can* create money' - a seemingly innocent statement that actually perpetuates dangerous misconceptions. As the panel explores, there's a world of difference between saying the government 'can' create money versus acknowledging that it 'does' create money with every pound it spends. This distinction matters because it allows economists and pundits to maintain outdated frameworks whilst appearing to acknowledge MMT insights. Dr Armstrong brings his characteristic clarity to explaining the consolidated view of government and central bank operations, illustrating why all government spending necessarily involves money creation. Using vivid analogies - from goldfish that must swim in water to the government's unique relationship with the Bank of England - he demonstrates why currency-issuing governments are fundamentally different from currency users like households or businesses. The discussion then tackles the politically damaging notion that governments should only 'borrow to invest'. Patricia explains why this framing misunderstands the true function of deficits whilst inadvertently supporting neoliberal arguments for privatisation. The panel reveals how this seemingly progressive talking point actually reinforces the household analogy and hands ammunition to fiscal conservatives. In his analysis of the 'public debt time bomb' narrative, Phil turns conventional wisdom on its head by pointing out that if foreign debt holdings were truly a source of power, then Britain - as the second-largest holder of US Treasury securities - would presumably have a decisive degree of control over America's economic destiny. Throughout, the conversation illuminates core MMT principles: the operational reality of government spending, the true nature of government bonds as private sector savings, and why exchange rate concerns, whilst legitimate, shouldn't drive us back to defunct fiscal rules. The panel's analysis reveals how even well-intentioned progressive economists can inadvertently perpetuate harmful misconceptions about monetary sovereignty.   =========== Key Topics with Timestamps [02:15] Introduction to the Fauxbel Prize concept[05:30] "Government can create money" vs "does create money"[12:45] The consolidated view of government and central bank[18:20] Why all government spending is money creation[25:10] "Borrowing to invest" - the progressive own goal[35:45] Historical context: Keynes and bifurcating budgets[42:30] The "Tap" system vs bond auctions[48:15] "Public debt = time bomb" narrative analysis[55:40] Exchange rate concerns and industrial policy   ========= Guest Bio Dr Phil Armstrong - Economist and author of "Can Heterodox Economics Make a Difference?". Researcher with expertise in monetary operations and MMT analysis. Key Takeaways Language matters: The difference between "can" and "does" in describing government money creation shapes public understanding All government spending creates new money: Currency-issuing governments cannot spend previously collected money - every expenditure creates new money The "government borrowing to Invest" narrative is counterproductive: This framing reinforces household analogies and supports privatisation arguments A government "debt" clock is a national SAVINGS clock: Government debt represents private sector savings, not a burden Exchange rate policy needs strategy: Arbitrary fiscal rules won't address structural economic vulnerabilities   ===============   All our episodes in chronological order: https://www.patreon.com/posts/43111643   All our patron-only episodes: https://www.patreon.com/posts/57542767   Scotland's Festival of Economics (Edinburgh and online)  19th - 21st March 2026: https://www.scoteconfest.org/#learnmore   JOIN PATRICIA'S MMT ACTIVIST NETWORK (MMT UK): https://actionnetwork.org/forms/activist-registration-form   Join the MMT UK Discord server to connect with others looking to promote MMT and ecological economics in the UK!: https://discord.gg/S3UbxFe4FR   MMT: THE MOVIE!
