Mountains, meridians, rivers, and borders--these are some of the features that divide the world on our maps and in our minds. But geography is far less set in stone than we might believe, and, as Maxim Samson's Earth Shapers contends, in our relatively short time on this planet, humans have become experts at fundamentally reshaping our surroundings. From the Qhapaq Ñan, the Inca's "great road," and Mozambique's colonial railways to a Saudi Arabian smart city, and from Korea's sacred Baekdu-daegan mountain range and the Great Green Wall in Africa to the streets of Chicago, Samson explores how we mold the world around us. And how, as we etch our needs onto the natural landscape, we alter the course of history. These fascinating stories of connectivity show that in our desire to make geographical connections, humans have broken through boundaries of all kinds, conquered treacherous terrain, and carved up landscapes. We crave linkages, and though we do not always pay attention to the in-between, these pathways--these ways of "earth shaping," in Samson's words--are key to understanding our relationship with the planet we call home. An immense work of cultural geography touching on ecology, sociology, history, and politics, Earth Shapers argues that, far from being constrained by geography, we are instead its creators.

Welcome to an audio-led edition of Unmade. Today we talk to Christian O'Connell about his plans to (sort of) take his radio show national. Plus a big fall for Seven West Media on the Unmade index.We've announced the schedule for this year's Compass series. Our panel-in-the-pub, end-of-year tour kicks off in Sydney on November 3 and concludes in Hobart a fortnight later. Reflecting on 2025 and projecting into 2026, please hold the date for your city:* November 3 – Compass Sydney* November 5 – Compass Brisbane* November 10 – Compass Adelaide* November 11 – Compass Perth* November 17 – Compass Melbourne* November 18 – Compass HobartUnmade's paying members get a free ticket to Compass. Your annual membership also gets you tickets to September's REmade conference on retail media; and to October's Unlock conference on marketing in the nighttime economy.And you also get access to our paywalled archive.Upgrade today.When is a radio show not really national? When it's on DABI have something of a confession.When I recorded this week's podcast with Christian O'Connell on Monday morning, I didn't have all the facts. When you listen, you'll hear me miss what is now an obvious question.ARN Media had just announced O'Connell's Melbourne-based Gold FM breakfast show was going live nationally. After last week's announcement that Brendan Jones and Amanda Keller were vacating their Gold FM Sydney breakfast show for a shift to drive, it was clear that O'Connell would be networking into both cities, but the national move was a surprise.I took the announcement at face value. The technical problem I focused on was that of the time difference.Depending on time of year, when the show kicks off in Melbourne at 6am, that would be 3am in Perth. Or 5am in Queensland. Or 5.30am in Adelaide. But the announcement was unequivocal (and, as I'll explain further down, misleading): “This is the first time a commercial radio breakfast show will go live across the country.”For a show that thrives on the conversation with callers, that would, I assumed, have to mean a longer show. Stay on air longer, until at least 11am Melbourne time perhaps, in order to be genuinely live. There's precedent for running long. Over on Kiis FM, stablemates Kyle Sandilands and Jackie Henderson usually stay well beyond their official finish time.Alternatively, as a half way house (and admittedly not properly live), shortly after 9am in Melbourne, record a bunch of talk breaks to cover the next two hours.The practicality of time zones is already a reality for broadcasters. The likes of ABC Radio National, and the TV networks, broadcast their shows as live, on a time delay. But when something big enough is breaking, they go fully live for their west coast audiences.But the assumption that I - and the rest of the industry - made was that ARN Media was planning to put The Christian O'Connell Show to air in each market on one of their existing stations. That had been the plan when ARN was looking to capture Triple M in its failed Southern Cross Austereo takeover bid.The new national plan was most intriguing in Perth where ARN's 96FM leads the market with a 14.8% audience share. However, 96FM is more closely aligned with ARN Media's Kiis network branding than Gold. ARN shares a second licence in the city with Nova Entertainment.And the existing 96FM breakfast show, featuring Dean Clairs and Lisa Shaw, underperforms compared to the rest of the station, sitting third in its time slot. Dropping in The Christian O'Connell Show would be a bold move but plausible.At the very least, with one licence in the market, ARN Media appeared to have selected O'Connell over the Kyle & Jackie O Show to lead its national networking strategy. To use the Formula One analogy, where each team has two drivers, ARN had chosen O'Connell as its number one driver.But the plan appeared anything but fully formed.As you'll hear O'Connell concede during the interview: “The Perth side, we're still working out the best way to do that. It might sound like ‘If you've been talking about this for seven years, why haven't you sorted that out?'”In truth, it's not going to be a national show. Or at least not on radios nationally. Outside of Sydney and Melbourne the show will be DAB only. Disingenuously, the word DAB did not appear in the announcement.Almost nobody listens to DAB. And for fans of O'Connell in other cities, they can already stream the show anyway.DAB ratings are so low that Commercial Radio Australia doesn't even publish the average listening numbers, only cumulative audience - the number of people who merely tune in at some point across the week. On DAB, the station 96FM 80s has a cume of just 61,000. That's compared to a cume for the main 96FM of 506,000. So why pretend the show is national when it is not?That's where ARN has made a hash of its communications.They were bounced into it after Jones and Keller decided to tell their listeners they were being moved to drive time. Reading between the lines, it's clear the duo would rather have stayed in breakfast.As O'Connell says in the interview: “Things have been jump started a bit. We were meant to be announcing this in a couple of weeks time.”ARN should have waited until it got its story straight.The mere fact of Christian O'Connell broadcasting live into Sydney was interesting enough, and a credible first step to a national audience.But that's not what this move represents.Instead, it potentially sets him up for failure.If ARN had presented it to the market as a two-city show, then Sydney and Melbourne would have been seen as the battleground - and, incidentally, one where O'Connell has the craft, talent and work ethic to win.It could even have been accompanied by the supplemental message that the show will additionally be available on DAB in those other markets. But it can't pretend that the show is fully in each of those markets - advertisers won't accept it anyway.Now, unless ARN rapidly changes its messaging, each survey will be accompanied by terrible comparisons in Perth, Adelaide and Brisbane.Presented as a national sell, it will cause confusion about what should be a simple buy. Marketers and media agencies won't buy the national story until it's a genuine national story.What a waste of what should have been good news from ARN.Seven share price decimatedSeven West Media and Vinyl Group both took big hits on the ASX today, losing 10% and 7.6% respectively.SWM's price of 14c is close to its low point of 12c it briefly hit in April. Vinyl Group is at its lowest point since May.Meanwhile Nine, which is currently the biggest locally based media and marketing stock, rose by 1.2% to a market capitalisation of $2.7bn.The Unmade Index rose slightly by 0.15% to 586.2 points.More from Mumbrella…* Call for AI compensation fund in copyright fight* Sports marketer Marissa Pace switches lanes, joins Guide Dogs NSW/ACT as CMO* Opinion: The loneliest place on earth (for a creative)* New York Post goes west with daily California Post newspaperToday's podcast was edited by Abe's Audio.

Welcome to an audio-led edition of Unmade. After this week's news that Solstice Media is buying Australian Traveller Media, we talk to founder Paul Hamra about the 20-year run up to the company's growth spurt.We've announced the schedule for this year's Compass series. Our panel-in-the-pub end-of-year tour kicks off in Sydney on November 3 and concludes in Hobart a fortnight later. Reflecting on 2025 and projecting into 2026, please hold the date for your city:* 3rd November – Compass Sydney* 5th November – Compass Brisbane* 10th November – Compass Adelaide* 11th November – Compass Perth* 17th November – Compass Melbourne* 18th November – Compass HobartAnd Unmade members get a free ticket.

Last year, Solstice took ownership of The New Daily. This month it took control of Schwartz Media's 7am podcast. And this week Solstice took a majority stake in Australian Traveller Media.In truth, the expansion of Solstice - which now has 87 staff - has been more organic. Solstice started life as the publisher of South Australian newspaper The Independent Weekly, before taking on News Corp in Adelaide with InDaily.Solstice's national footprint grew when it was hired by some of Australia's industry super funds to launch the New Daily more than a decade ago, and recently bought the masthead from the funds.In the wide ranging conversation, Hamra discusses his shareholder base of impact investors, and tries to avoid answering how much he paid for Australian Traveller. He explains: “The reason why we liked Australian Traveller is because of the cultural fit, that we were like-minded in terms of our attitude towards publishing, our attitudes towards independence and quality.”The intention for the company's lifestyle publications is to help fund its journalism: “If you look over history, you'll see that in any media outlet, it's not the news that funds the business. It's actually other verticals that have funded the business.“Hamra is also refreshingly honest about the post-rationalisation many publishers go through when they build their businesses. “We end up growing a little bit like Topsy until we fall into a strategy. And that's kind of what's happened to us. We actually had an audience and we bolted things onto that audience over time. And then 15, 16 years down the track, you go, oh, hang on… all of a sudden we've got this fabulous audience and we've actually got a strategy.”Solstice had been a beneficiary of Facebook funding, and had to make redundancies when it dried up. Like all publishers, Hamra also has a view on the unavoidable need to do business with platforms like Google, and a more sceptical view on whether the government really wants to help Australia's media owners:“They sound desperate to help, but the reality is we know they're not because they would have done something by now. If they were as concerned about the media as they say they are, something would have happened by now.More from Mumbrella…* Clock ticking for loss-making Aspermont* Union boss slams News Corp's use of AI in newsrooms* On the road again: Compass event series dates announced* Opinion: Marketing measurement is having a moment, but can it deliver?* ‘Callous and punitive': Rosie Waterland launches own podcast network after battle with SCA* Dr Mumbo: Is Youtube social media?

Welcome to an audio-led edition of Unmade.We're a day earlier than usual in our weekly podcast cycle, after last night's announcement that Eric Beecher's Private Media has bought the David Koch-founded Pinstripe Media. Today's interview features Private Media CEO Will Hayward and Pinstripe's MD AJ Koch.And further down, there were big swings in both directions on the Unmade Index.To get maximum value from a paid membership of Unmade, sign up today.Your annual membership gets you tickets to September's REmade conference on retail media; to October's Unlock conference on marketing in the nighttime economy; and to Unmade's Compass end-of-year roadshow.You also get access to our paywalled archive.Upgrade today.‘We're trying to build a mass product'This week saw a major consolidation in the publishing sector serving small businesses, with Private Media, owner of Smart Company, buying its biggest rival Pinstripe Media. Pinstripe, founded by former Sunrise presenter David Koch, publishes Startup Daily, Flying Solo and Business Builders.Private Media has been examining its options to grow through acquisition for some time. In conversation with Unmade's Tim Burrowes, Will Hayward explains why, of 30 potential acquisitions, Pinstripe was the deal to do. And AJ Koch explains why now was the time to sell the family firm.David Koch will continue to front Business Builders for now, but will not be coming across as a member of staff.In the conversation Hayward acknowledges the view of investor Warren Buffett that acquirers are usually on the wrong end of any acquisition. He argues: “We think media is different, and I would argue that the trend in media has been positive.”On the exit of his father from managing Pinstripe, AJ Koch says: “He's not a spring chicken anymore and we know he needs to retire at some point. We'd always talked about being open to an exit at some point. But we weren't actively looking.”Hayward says that the logic of the deal is centred on the close competition between the two organisations in targeting an audience of small and medium sized businesses. But he claims this new found pricing power will not be used to put up prices for advertisers and sponsors, but to make it easier to advertise in the sector.He says: "The first step to building a really sustainable business in which the majority of revenue comes from advertising is to make sure that you're making it really easy for your advertisers to grow their spend year on year. If I was a CEO of a publicly listed business where I was incentivized on the next 12 months of revenue, absolutely pricing power matters a great deal. I'm not.“We're not too focused on the next year. We're focused more on the next three to five years. And the first step on that journey will be making it as easy as possible for the marketing team at Big Tech Inc to say ‘That's a great buy. Let's just keep doing that buy'.”Red and green on the Unmade IndexThe Unmade Index crept up on Tuesday during a day with no clear direction.Southern Cross Austereo and Seven West Media both saw upwards jumps of 3.4% and 3.5% respectively.And Vinyl Group and Enero saw larger falls of 8.7% and 4.1% respectively.The Unmade Index closed on 586.6 points, an improvement for the day of 0.18%.More from Mumbrella…* Nine Radio loses Sydney and Melbourne as listeners switch to FM* The case of the smoking bullet point: Qantas admits to ChatGPT use ‘for formatting'* Omnicom confirms Nick Garrett to lead new Oceania structure* Exclusive: Paul Bradbury quits in wake of Omnicom changes* Why are readers fleeing from Australia's top news sites?* Opinion: No CMO is an island: Why collaboration is more important than ever to marketing leadershipToday's podcast was edited by Abe's Audio.

For brands, particularly those with access to their own content, that includes the ability to spin up their own channels.He argues “Barriers to creating a TV channel are lower than ever. Now you can have a TV channel up and running in 24 hours.” He observes: “You need about 100 hours of content to make the channel worthwhile.”As opposed to the lean-forward nature of subscription streaming, FAST represents a return to the TV habits of the free to air era. According to Spurzem: “TV had been for many decades what became scrolling through content, TV channels you can zap through.” FAST works on the same principle.Spurzem made an early decision to join the Video Futures Collective and joined Foxtel Media's Toby Dewar on stage at last year's Upfronts to back the initiative, which represents a break from the media establishment centred around the FTA-owned OzTAM.He says it was because VFC filled a gap. “There was a lack of evidence for marketers of how streaming could fit in.”Spurzem argues that VFC is not set up in opposition to OzTAM, which he suggests may be less relevant in the future anyway. “As time goes on, measurement that's based on samples and panels and streaming meters will become less robust.” He points out: “Say both of us watch the same show… even though you and I are watching the same content there's a decent chance we'll see different ads during the ad break. The idea of content as a proxy for ad measurement will become less robust.”“Sooner or later we'll get to the point where the majority of TV is just digital. Once the majority of TV is traded digitally through fit-for-purpose advertising technology. When that takes place around impressions and frequency caps, at that point is a reach currency as valuable as it used to be? I can't help but think that in other areas like online display advertising there's never been demand for a reach currency.”However, Spurzem does not rule out following Netfix in becoming an OzTAM subscriber, conceding: “There are areas we can collaborate on”.And on the topic of AI, Spurzem offers a case for optimism as far as the TV industry goes: “You're not going to get an AI agent to watch TV for you.”IVE Group's charge up the Unmade Index continuesPrint and marketing business IVE Group led the way at the top end of the Unmade Index, rising by 1.3% on a day when most Unmade Index stocks sank. The company is trading at the highest share price in its history and closing in on a half a billion dollars valuation.Among the larger stocks, Seven West Media had the worst day on the Index, losing 3.3% while Southern Cross Austereo dropped 2.7%. Ooh Media, which lost its Auckland Transport contract yesterday, sank 2.6%.The Unmade Index closed on 579.1 points, a loss for the day of 0.75%.More from Mumbrella…* Telstra's ‘Wherever We Go' voted most unforgettable ad – and most hated* Havas' James Wright formally expands remit in wake of Virginia Hyland exit* Opinion: Happy World PR Day: The earned revolution is here* 6,000 downloads enough for ABC News to top Podcast Ranker* Opinion: Qantas breach: In a crisis, you need to reach people where they are* Retail media outgrows its shell: ‘Structure and collaboration are essential'Today's podcast was edited by Abe's Audio.

Did European colonialism truly end in the 20th century, as we often assume? In this episode Anne van Mourik (NIOD) speaks with Martin Thomas (Exeter University) about his book The End of Empires and a World Remade: A Global History of Decolonization (Princeton University Press). He argues that decolonization was not just the transfer of power from colonizers to the colonized, but a global, often violent process that forged new alliances, reshaped international connections, and left behind enduring colonial legacies. In this episode we ask: How to rethink decolonization? If empires were so powerful, military, politically, economically, why and how did they collapse? And how is colonial violence different than violence in non-imperial spaces? Photo: Civilian are pushing a military jeep. 1 August 1962. Wikimedia Commons.

The U.S. justice system is being remade, former prosecutions are being investigated, and key figures are being pardoned. This is being done against the backdrop that weaponization of the justice system allegedly played a role in many of the cases, and it's possible that, as the investigations continue, many previous convictions could be overturned through pardons.Views expressed in this video are opinions of the host and guests, and do not necessarily reflect the views of The Epoch Times.

In this episode of 'Speak the Truth,' hosts Michael and Shauna are joined by special guest Paul Tautges at the Canadian Biblical Counseling Coalition Annual Conference. They discuss the themes of identity, sanctification, and counseling within the Christian faith. Paul shares insights from his latest book, 'Remade,' which emphasizes the importance of understanding one's identity in Christ through three lenses: saint, sinner, and sufferer. The conversation covers the apostolic pattern of discipleship, the significance of talking to oneself, God, and others, and practical tips for pastoral care and counseling. Paul also hints at upcoming projects, including a new children's book and other works in progress.00:00 Introduction and Greetings00:21 Special Guest Introduction: Paul Tautges 01:04 Conference and Book Discussion: 'Remade'02:43 Paul's Writing Discipline and Ministry Insights06:11 The Triple Lens Perspective in Counseling11:28 Practical Applications and Reflections20:52 Paul's Other Works and Resources24:41 Conclusion and FarewellEpisode MentionsREMADE  Counseling One Another Anxiety - 31 Day Devotional Paul's Amazon Page Counselingoneanother.com

For historian Peniel Joseph, the year 1963 — the centennial of the Emancipation Proclamation — is the defining year of the Civil Rights Movement. “America came undone and remade itself in 1963, a year of miracles and tragedies, progress and setbacks,” he writes in his new book, “Freedom Season.” It profiles how events of that year affected Americans like Rev. King, Malcolm X and James Baldwin — and inspired their parts in the Black freedom struggle. Joseph joins us. Tell us: What does 1963 symbolize to you? Guests: Peniel E.

Empires, until recently, were everywhere. They shaped borders, stirred conflicts, and set the terms of international politics. With the collapse of empire came a fundamental reorganization of our world. Decolonization unfolded across territories as well as within them. Its struggles became internationalized and transnational, as much global campaigns of moral disarmament against colonial injustice as local contests of arms. In this expansive history, Martin Thomas tells the story of decolonization and its intrinsic link to globalization. He traces the connections between these two transformative processes: the end of formal empire and the acceleration of global integration, market reorganization, cultural exchange, and migration. The End of Empires and a World Remade: A Global History of Decolonization (Princeton UP, 2024) shows how profoundly decolonization shaped the process of globalization in the wake of empire collapse. In the second half of the twentieth century, decolonization catalyzed new international coalitions; it triggered partitions and wars; and it reshaped North-South dynamics. Globalization promised the decolonized greater access to essential resources, to wider networks of influence, and to worldwide audiences, but its neoliberal variant has reinforced economic inequalities and imperial forms of political and cultural influences. In surveying these two codependent histories across the world, from Latin America to Asia, Thomas explains why the deck was so heavily stacked against newly independent nations.Decolonization stands alongside the great world wars as the most transformative event of twentieth-century history. In The End of Empires and a World Remade, Thomas offers a masterful analysis of the greatest process of state-making (and empire-unmaking) in modern history. Martin Thomas is professor of imperial history and director of the Centre for Histories of Violence and Conflict at the University of Exeter. A fellow of the Leverhulme Trust and the Independent Social Research Foundation, he is the author of Violence and Colonial Order: Police, Workers and Protest in the European Colonial Empires, 1918–1940; Fight or Flight: Britain, France, and the Roads from Empire; and other books.

Do you struggle with knowing who you are? Often, self-perception, even as Christians, is fragmented or incomplete—people struggle to grasp the richly faceted identity they've been given in Christ. When your evaluation of yourself, your sin, and your circumstances are misaligned with God's view, you don't live with the comfort and motivation Christ offers. Scripture teaches that we are saints in good standing before God, yet we are at the same time sinners who must battle with our desires and sufferers who undergo hardship. Pastor Tautges will help you understand how grasping this threefold biblical reality centres your thoughts and affections on the Saviour and prepares you to stay on God's good path as you live in a broken world.Teaching by Pastor Paul TautgesFor more information on SMTI please click here: https://smti.co.za/For more information on ACBC Africa please click here: https://acbcafrica.co.za/For more information on Lynnwood Baptist Church please click here: https://lynnwoodbaptistchurch.co.za/

A policy that could have brought an end to America's suburbs has now been discarded. The zoning policy under the Obama administration, and later the Biden administration, created a type of equity program that localities had to follow. And the program has now been eliminated by Housing and Urban Development Secretary Scott Turner.In other news, the Department of Homeland Security has repurposed the CBP One app that could formerly be used to schedule illegal entry into the United States. It has been relaunched for self-deportation.

Genesis: Our Origin Story

How Christianity Remade the WorldIn the context of the pagan classical world, the Christian faith was a shocking, even unfathomable inversion of the values systems and structures of the time. In that embattled context, its explosive growth was unimaginable. Today, however, Christianity is often considered boring or backwards.How might we better discern and understand the radicalism of Christianity's origins, its impact through the centuries, and its enduring formational power? Historian Tom Holland's landmark book Dominion: How the Christian Revolution Remade the World, calls attention to these puzzles and paradoxes:”Dominion was written as an attempt to stress test my hunch that Christianity really had been the most seismic and revolutionary development, not just really in the history of the West, but probably globally. And  I'm relieved to say that I was satisfied that it had been what I was setting out to show that it had been.” - Tom HollandWe trust this conversation will fire your imagination anew, and help you see with new eyes how the inverted values and priorities of God's kingdom continue to disrupt the patterns of the world, and shape our cultural assumptions.This podcast is an edited version of our Online Conversation recorded in February, 2025.

Whether you believe in the story of the virgin birth and the resurrection, or whether you believe that those miracles are myths, one thing is beyond dispute: The story of Jesus and the message of Christianity are among the stickiest ideas the world has ever seen. Within four centuries of Jesus's death, Christianity had become the official religion of the Roman Empire. It had 30 million followers—half of the empire. Today, two millennia later, Christianity is still the largest religion in the world. How and why did Christianity take off, and how did it change the world in such radical ways? Here to have that conversation is historian Tom Holland. Tom is one of the most gifted storytellers in the world, and his podcast, The Rest is History, is one of the most popular out there. Each week, he and his co-host, Dominic Sandbrook, charm their way through history's most interesting characters and sagas. I can't recommend it more highly. Holland's book Dominion: The Making of the Western Mind chronicles thousands of years of Christian history, and it argues that Christianity is the reason we have America. That it's the inspiration to both the French and the American Revolutions. That it's the backbone of wokeness as an ideology, but also the liberal forces fighting it. Today, Tom explains how and why the story of Christianity won, how it shaped Western culture and values, and if he thinks our vacation from religion might be coming to an end.

This election felt like the peak of the TV-ification of politics. There's Trump, of course, who rose to national prominence as a reality-TV character and is a master of visual stagecraft. And while Trump's cabinet picks in his first term were described as out of central casting, this time he wants to staff some positions directly from the worlds of TV and entertainment: Pete Hegseth, his choice to run the Pentagon, was a host on “Fox and Friends Weekend”; his proposed education secretary, Linda McMahon, was the former C.E.O. of W.W.E.; Mehmet Oz, star of the long-running “The Dr. Oz Show,” is his pick to run Medicare and Medicaid; and he's tapped Elon Musk, one of the most powerful figures in American culture, to lead a government efficiency effort. Two years ago, we released an episode that helps explain why politics and entertainment are converging like this. It's with my old Vox colleague Sean Illing, host of “The Gray Area,” looking at the work of two media theorists, Marshall McLuhan and Neil Postman, who uncannily predicted what we're seeing now decades ago.And so I wanted to share this episode again now, because it's really worth stepping back and looking at this moment through the lens of the media that's shaping it. In his book “The Paradox of Democracy,” Illing and his co-author, Zac Gershberg, put it this way: “It's better to think of democracy less as a government type and more as an open communicative culture.” So what does our communicative culture — our fragmented mix of cable news, X, TikTok, YouTube, WhatsApp and podcasts — mean for our democracy? This episode contains strong language.Mentioned:“‘Flood the zone with shit': How misinformation overwhelmed our democracy” by Sean Illing“Quantifying partisan news diets in Web and TV audiences” by Daniel Muise, Homa Hosseinmardi, Baird Howland, Markus Mobius, David Rothschild and Duncan J.
