Podcasts about revolts

On Wednesday September 23, 87-year-old Maricarmen Abascal was evicted from the Madrid flat where she had lived for more than 70 years. The vulture fund that owned the property had raised her monthly rent from €500 to €2,650. Removed on a stretcher and taken to hospital, Maricarmen became the focus of widespread anger over Spain's housing crisis - where rents have increased 87 percent over the last decade. Thousands protested in Madrid that evening, with demonstrations spreading elsewhere in Spain, followed by a far larger march last Saturday of up to 300,000 people. In the immediate aftermath of that march a massive protest camp was step up in Madrid's iconic Puerta del Sol square - in a move that echoed the Indignados occupations 15 years earlier. For five nights in a row now, thousands of people have packed Sol demanding an end to speculation and soaring rental prices.Today on Sobremesa Podcast, we talk to Hannah Fakir, an activist with the Sindicato de Inquilinas Madrid's tenants union - who organized the non-violent resistance to Maricarmen's eviction and are behind the protest camp. I talked to her in Sol as protestors chanted in the background.

Nothing says “credible music journalism” quite like blindly ranking ten legendary rock bands without knowing which one is coming next. Welcome to another comedy podcast from The Rizzuto Show, where Queen gets the throne, Metallica becomes the baseline for civilization, and somehow The Beatles end up staring directly at KISS's backside.We kick things off with a blind ranking of some of the biggest rock bands ever: Metallica, The Rolling Stones, AC/DC, Nirvana, Guns N' Roses, Pink Floyd, Queen, Led Zeppelin, The Beatles and KISS. The rules are simple: once you place a band, you're stuck with it. Naturally, this creates an absolutely flawless list that no music fan could possibly have an issue with.Just kidding. It's a disaster.Metallica lands at number five and becomes the dividing line for the entire exercise. The Rolling Stones climb toward the top, AC/DC gets placed too low and immediately causes regret, Queen claims number one, and then The Beatles arrive after almost all the good spots have disappeared. The result? The Beatles finish DEAD LAST behind KISS.Music historians, please direct your complaints somewhere else. We have enough going on.That leads to a bigger Beatles debate as Rafe argues that the band deserves enormous credit for what they changed, but that doesn't mean everybody has to automatically put them at number one. Moon attempts to defend civilization. Lern reveals she does not suffer from “Beatle boner mania.” Somehow Michael McDonald becomes the secret fifth Beatle. This is why nobody lets us curate the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame.Speaking of legendary musicians, the crew gets into the backlash surrounding a George Michael tribute featuring performers including Teddy Swims and Sombr. Some viewers were furious with the choices, while the show tries to determine what exactly would have made everybody happy. Adam Lambert gets some love, Andrew Ridgeley's name is miraculously remembered, and Riz discovers his biggest problem with Sombr may simply be that somebody stole the “E” from his name.Then Rafe's birthday completely takes over the studio.The crew surprises him with a brand-new grill for his new house, which immediately raises the question of whether they can fire it up inside the studio. For legal reasons and continued access to oxygen, the answer appears to be no.But the grill is only the beginning. Rafe gets a personal birthday message from Rick of Rick's Ace Hardware — whom Rafe immediately embraces as his new father — along with an Ace bucket loaded with homeowner supplies. It turns out Rafe's previous love for the store traveled up the Ace Hardware corporate ladder and was even shared at a company convention. That's right: Rafe somehow became an Ace Hardware influencer without even trying. Take that, every 22-year-old making sponsored TikToks.There are also homemade deviled eggs, handmade coasters featuring Dolly Parton, Reba McEntire, Willie Nelson, Johnny Cash and even Rafe's own dog, plus the discovery that Rafe shares a birthday with Monica Bellucci. At this point the man has a grill, deviled eggs, a bucket and Monica Bellucci spiritually connected to him through a calendar. There's nowhere left to go.And because this comedy podcast refuses to stay in one lane, Crap on Celebrities brings even more chaos: Slipknot and Marilyn Manson tour backlash, a Linkin Park documentary, Taylor Swift's former Beverly Hills home hitting the market, Diddy prison reports, Raven-Symoné revealing an extremely specific period routine, a Rick Wakeman concert for rescued bears, a heavy Matthew Perry documentary, and wildly divided reactions to a new Tom Cruise movie.There's rock history, birthday surprises, celebrity news, angry music fans and enough hardware-store enthusiasm to make a suburban dad shed a single tear into his freshly cut lawn.Happy birthday, Rafe.

This week on Locked & Probably Loaded with DJ & Kelly, DJ is drinking purple drink, trying to fit back into his suits and discovering that his New Year's resolution to have more fun may have been a little too successful. Kelly proposes a solution: the same amount of fun, but more naps. Eventually, they settle on Fun Zero. DJ also has an update on his SAG health insurance, including an unexpected route back to coverage through his newly approved influencer contract. He is now, very reluctantly, an influencer. Kelly would like to remind everyone that social media works. Then it's time for the debut of DJ & Kelly at the Movies, our new review segment featuring star ratings, five-word movie descriptions, what we'd keep or change, and extremely specific superlatives. This week's movies: Hope: Spectacular action, a confusing alien subplot and a movie that Kelly describes as “Grand Theft Avatar.” Practical Magic 2: Witches, nostalgia, generational trauma and a very attractive magician who desperately needs to stop doing tricks. The Uprising: Medieval tax grievances, accents that require subtitles and camera work that makes Kelly feel like she's watching The Office at a Renaissance fair. Along the way, we reconsider our entire rating system, DJ prepares to die on the Fahrenheit-versus-Celsius hill, and Kelly offers a remarkably specific prediction about the temperature of his casket.

The complete audiobook is available for purchase at Audible.com: https://n9.cl/y6977c The Revolt Against Religion By Joseph McCabe Narrated by Oberon Michaels In The Revolt Against Religion, celebrated rationalist Joseph McCabe examines one of the defining intellectual movements of the modern age: humanity's growing rejection of traditional religious authority. In this survey of history from the Renaissance and the Enlightenment through the rise of modern science, biblical criticism, philosophy, and social reform, McCabe argues that the decline of orthodox belief is not a passing trend but the culmination of centuries of intellectual and cultural change. Written in McCabe's characteristically lucid and provocative style, this classic work challenges long-held assumptions about faith, reason, and the progress of civilization. Whether admired as a pioneering defense of freethought or debated as a forceful critique of religion, The Revolt Against Religion remains a fascinating window into one of the twentieth century's most influential secular voices.

Bad Speakers TV Episode 257 | HOODRICH is a deep dive into the life, career, and Atlanta hip-hop legacy of legendary DJ DJ Scream. In this episode, DJ Scream takes us back to his Atlanta roots and tells the story of how he went from growing up in the city to becoming one of the most respected DJs and mixtape personalities in Southern hip-hop. If you want to understand Atlanta rap culture, the mixtape era, and how some of the biggest artists in the South built their sound and their movements, this conversation is a history lesson disguised as a good-ass time. DJ Scream breaks down how he first got into DJing, how he began making noise in Atlanta's competitive DJ scene, and what it took to go from being another DJ with a dream to becoming a name artists wanted attached to their projects. He talks about working on Shawty Lo's legendary "I'm Da Man" mixtapes, giving listeners a behind-the-scenes look at an era when mixtapes weren't just promotional material — they were damn near albums, street newspapers, and passports to fame all rolled into one. The conversation goes even deeper into Scream's work with some of Atlanta's biggest stars, including T.I., Gucci Mane, Future, Young Scooter, and Jeezy. He talks about working with Future on the Astronaut Status mixtape and collaborating with Young Scooter on Street Lottery, two projects that became important pieces of Atlanta's mixtape culture. Scream also reflects on Jeezy's incredible run and why Jeezy had arguably one of the biggest movements in Atlanta during his prime. If you remember when Atlanta mixtapes were moving through the streets faster than a rumor at the barbershop, you're going to appreciate this part of the conversation. DJ Scream also explains how streaming changed — and in many ways disrupted — the mixtape game. Before streaming platforms completely changed how people consumed music, DJs could break an artist, introduce new records, create exclusive freestyles, and build anticipation through mixtapes. Scream explains what was special about that era and what was lost when the internet and streaming platforms changed the economics and culture surrounding mixtapes. The conversation gives you a fascinating look at the evolution of hip-hop from physical mixtapes and street promotion to today's streaming-driven industry. And because this is Atlanta, there is absolutely no way we're having this conversation without talking about the city's legends. DJ Scream gives Young Dro his flowers and explains why he believes Dro deserves more recognition for his contribution to Atlanta hip-hop. He also talks about Ludacris and why he feels Luda has been underrated and overlooked when people discuss Atlanta's greatest hip-hop artists. That's a conversation guaranteed to start an argument in the comments — and we're perfectly fine with that. Scream also gets real about Young Dolph, including what it was like working with Dolph and how his tragic passing affected him personally. Beyond the music, DJ Scream talks about the importance of hard work, consistency, relationships, and putting in the reps, explaining why talent alone isn't enough to build a lasting career in entertainment. The game will give you opportunities, but it apparently expects you to clock in for work too. The conversation eventually brings us to another major chapter in DJ Scream's career: Big Facts. Scream explains how he and Big Bank built their friendship and eventually created the Big Facts Podcast, which grew into one of the most recognizable hip-hop interview platforms in the culture. He also talks about getting Big Facts signed to REVOLT TV and what that transition meant for the podcast and their growing influence in hip-hop media. From Atlanta's mixtape era to the rise of streaming, from Shawty Lo and Jeezy to T.I., Gucci Mane, Future, Young Scooter, Ludacris, Young Dolph, Big Bank and Big Facts, DJ Scream takes us through multiple generations of Atlanta hip-hop. This episode is packed with stories, industry knowledge, Atlanta history, behind-the-scenes moments, and the perspective of somebody who has actually been in the room while the culture was being built. If you're a fan of DJ Scream, Atlanta hip-hop, Southern rap, mixtapes, Shawty Lo, T.I., Gucci Mane, Future, Young Scooter, Jeezy, Young Dro, Ludacris, Young Dolph, Big Facts, Big Bank, REVOLT, or the history of Atlanta rap, Bad Speakers TV Episode 257 | HOODRICH is a must-watch. This is Bad Speakers TV, where YA BOI SHAD & G. DOWNS bring you the conversations that give you the stories behind the stories.

Unleashed: The Political News Hour with Chris Cordani – From AfD's rise in Germany to Trump's ability to bypass traditional media, voters are increasingly challenging the institutions that once controlled political power and public narratives. Artificial intelligence is accelerating that disruption. At its core, the debate is about centralized authority versus independent judgment...

The rebellion is over in three weeks. Wat Tyler is dead, the charters are revoked, John Ball is executed, and by every measure that historians usually use, the Peasants' Revolt failed completely. Except that the tax that started it was never levied again in the same way for a hundred and thirty two years. The next general poll tax in England comes in 1513, under Henry VIII, and even then the government moved carefully. For four generations, the memory of 1381 sat in the room every time Parliament talked about taxing ordinary people. In this final part of the series we go to Smithfield on the 15th of June, 1381, and work out what actually happened between Wat Tyler and the fourteen year old king. Then we follow Richard II to Waltham, where the chronicler Thomas Walsingham puts a speech in his mouth that is quoted in almost every book on the revolt, and which one of the best modern historians of 1381 thinks was made up. We go through the reprisals in Essex, Hertfordshire and Norfolk, and then we ask the question the whole series has been building toward. They lost. Did they also win? Serfdom in England is not abolished by an act of Parliament. It drains away. And in 1574, Elizabeth I signs a commission to free the last serfs on the crown estates, which tells you both that villeinage had almost disappeared and that it had not quite.

A national debate over sexualised violence online has erupted in Germany, and been seized on by Germany's feminist movement. As AI-generated deepfakes and other forms of online abuse against women become increasingly widespread, young activists are demanding stronger legal protections and putting violence against women at the centre of the political agenda. Reporter Jeanny Wasielewski meets the campaigners leading this movement, alongside survivors, politicians and legal experts, to explore whether Germany can close the gap between rapidly evolving technology and outdated legislation.(Photo: Feminist Fight Club hold up a placard which reads 'sexualisierte und digitale gewalt stoppen' Credit: Lukas Stratmann)

In guiding our kids along the traditional path to professional success, are we really setting them up for failure?  College is heralded as necessary for a promising career, but many colleges today can't deliver on the promises they make - and they know it.  New York Times reporter Noam Scheiber joins us to talk about his book Mutiny: The Rise and Revolt of the College Educated Working Class, and our collective responsibility to the next generation.

They can block a camera from the Oval Office, but they can't block the argument that follows. We dig into the White House press pool standoff and the question underneath it: is this a necessary pushback against editorialized “journalism,” or a precedent that will boomerang the moment power changes hands? We also walk through the real legal wrinkle people miss when they shout “First Amendment,” and why optics matter even when something feels technically defensible.Then we pivot to Trump TV, launching at the exact moment trust in traditional media is under open attack. We talk through what it actually is right now (a YouTube-style, 24-hour administration highlight feed), what it could become, and why unfiltered access cuts both ways. If you're tired of chopped-up clips and selective edits, direct messaging sounds appealing. If you're worried about propaganda, the same setup feels dangerous.From there, we go wide: the Greenland security agreement and why Arctic strategy matters for US defense, Russia, China, and polar routes; Trump's UN speech on sovereignty and Iran; and the diesel price surge that hits everyone through shipping, groceries, and heating oil. We also look at whether Democrats are losing Jewish voters, how antisemitism concerns show up in polling, and why local endorsements can turn national fast. Finally, we wrestle with the 1619 Project's personal backlash and a chilling Canada MAID case that forces a hard question about consent when death is irreversible.Subscribe, share this with a friend, and leave a review with your take: where do you draw the line on access, messaging, and accountability?Support the showElsa's AMAZON STORE Elsa's FAITH & FREEDOM MERCH STOREElsa's BOOKSElsa Kurt: You may know her for her uncanny, viral Kamala Harris impressions & conservative comedy skits, but she's also a lifelong Patriot & longtime Police Wife.

In two weeks in June 1381, English peasants drove a Chief Justice out of Essex, took Rochester Castle, walked into Canterbury Cathedral, camped outside London, burned the richest palace in the country, and then walked into the Tower of London and beheaded the Archbishop of Canterbury. And a fourteen-year-old king rode out to meet them and said yes to everything they asked for. This is Part 3 of my series on the Peasants' Revolt, told day by day, from Brentwood on 30 May to the night of 14 June with the rebels holding London. We cover Wat Tyler, who has no history at all before that month, John Ball's sermon at Blackheath, the manor court rolls they burned everywhere they went, the Flemish weavers murdered in the streets, and Johanna Ferrour, the woman the court records name as a leader of the attack on the Tower. ▶️ Part 1: https://youtu.be/bl5z1blEY-Y | Part 2: https://youtu.be/AT5AWrkIBVE

In 1377, England counted about 1,355,000 adults for a new poll tax. In 1381 it counted again and found about 896,000. There was no great plague, no famine and no invasion. So where did a third of the country go? They were at home. Village after village sent in tax lists with far more men than women, because families had simply stopped telling the government their daughters, sisters and widowed mothers existed. In Part 2 of my series on the Peasants' Revolt, I look at the 30 years that pushed England to breaking point. We cover the labour laws that fined workers to lower their bosses' taxes, a law telling ploughmen what they could wear, villagers who paid for copies of the Domesday Book to prove they were free, a ten-year-old king, and a poll tax that charged the poorest family the same per head as the richest. It all ends at Brentwood on 30 May 1381, when the people of Fobbing threw the tax commissioner out of town.

Some drivers in South Carolina don't know their state's history – especially when it comes to the Revolutionary War. Sgt. William Jasper was one of the country's first heroes, and his image now adorns the Palmetto State's new standard plates. The Y'all Show is a production of Yall.com and hosted by Jon Rawl.

In June 1381, rebels broke into John of Gaunt's Savoy Palace, the wealthiest house in England. They smashed the gold plate, crushed the jewels with hammers and threw the silver in the Thames. According to one chronicler, when a man was caught stealing, his own side threw him into the fire.So how do ordinary villagers get to that point? In Part 1 of a four-part series on the Peasants' Revolt, I go back to the beginning. That means the rain of 1315, a famine so bad the king couldn't buy bread, a cattle plague that took the milk away from a whole generation of children, the Black Death, and a government that responded by making it illegal to ask for a raise.

Hollywood sold you a hero in chains. Forget it. That's not what broke Rome.What broke Rome was what happened after Rome won.By 73 BC, Rome had stopped running on its citizens. It was running on slaves. Around a fifth of the peninsula was enslaved. In whole districts of Lucania and Apulia, the men working the land outnumbered the men who owned it by margins that should have frightened somebody.So when 78 gladiators broke out of a school in Capua with kitchen knives and made it to Mount Vesuvius, it wasn't the kind of prison riot Rome was used to. It was the foundation cracking. In three years, Spartacus built an army the size of a consular force, defeated both sitting consuls of Rome in the same season, and nearly reached the Alps.Rome eventually crushed the revolt. Marcus Licinius Crassus took extraordinary command with 8-10 legions — four times what any citizen should have commanded — cornered Spartacus in the toe of Italy behind a 35-mile wall built across the peninsula, and killed him at the Silarius River in 71 BC. Then he crucified 6,000 captured survivors along the Appian Way from Capua to Rome. 130 miles of crosses.Rome called it a warning. It was state terror as domestic policy.And then Crassus and Pompey camped their armies outside Rome and demanded the consulship for 70 BC — dismantling the Sullan constitutional restoration in the process. The template was set: extraordinary crises justify extraordinary commands, and extraordinary commands become permanent tools.Every extraordinary command that followed — Pompey against the pirates in 67, Pompey against Mithridates in 66, Caesar against Gaul in 58 — was justified using the Spartacus precedent. When Caesar crossed the Rubicon 22 years later, he was following the pattern Crassus and Pompey had already set.Rome could win the war. It couldn't survive winning it.This is Episode 125 of The Fall of the Republic series on The Roman Pattern.Chapters:00:00 Rome could win the war01:07 Why Spartacus matters02:19 The slave economy — money as the first fault line04:15 Capua — 78 gladiators with kitchen knives05:32 Vesuvius and Glaber's rout06:47 Borders as the second fault line07:38 The army grows08:34 72 BC — both consuls defeated09:55 Power as the third fault line10:16 Crassus takes command11:31 Decimation — 50 men beaten to death13:15 The wall across Italy13:40 The Silarius River14:44 6,000 crosses on the Appian Way15:46 Pompey steals the credit16:33 70 BC — Crassus and Pompey demand the consulship17:22 The Sullan reforms dismantled17:48 The kill chain18:42 The template for every future extraordinary command19:12 Winning killed RomeSources referenced in this episode:— Plutarch, Life of Crassus (decimation, Pompey letter)— Appian, The Civil Wars, Book 1 (main narrative, 6,000 crucifixion count)— Sallust, Histories (fragments)— Livy, Periochae 95-97— Florus, Epitome of Roman History— Barry Strauss, The Spartacus War (definitive modern account)— Walter Scheidel (enslaved population estimates)— Ronald Syme, The Roman Revolution (1939)The Fall of the Republic series continues next Monday with The Men Who Bought the Republic — how Crassus and Pompey turned military victory into the machinery that made every future strongman possible.

The so-called Peasants' Revolt of 1381 was the first mass popular uprising in England. A true people's revolution, it involved not just peasants but also tradesmen, merchants, artisans, priests, village leaders — an emerging middle-class from the countryside. Their demands were radical; an overhaul of a centuries-old system of power held by aristocrats and the church, and the end of the exploitation of the masses by the elites. By the time it was over, a small, disparate band of disillusioned common people had swollen into an army of tens of thousands, forcing the king himself to listen. How did a village ruckus explode into a national crisis? Who were the rebels willing to die for a cause? And who clung onto power after London fell into anarchy?

On this day, 19 September 1795, two enslaved people named Tula and Karpata who had been leading a revolt on the Dutch colony of Curaçao were betrayed and taken prisoner, effectively ending a month-long rebellion. They and two other leaders, Pedro Wakao and Louis Mercier were executed, and many other rebels had been killed in the fighting. Despite this, the government was forced to grant limited rights to enslaved people, and in 1814 they abolished the slave trade. Although slavery continued in Dutch colonies until 1863.More information, sources and map: https://stories.workingclasshistory.com/article/9146/curaçao-slave-revolt-crushedOur work is only possible because of support from you, our listeners on patreon.

How accurate is Hollywood's take on the Peasants' Revolt? It is 1381, and England is at breaking point. A civilian army of thousands stormed the capital, making demands of King Richard II.

The Jets want MetLife Stadium covered in white, but Evan Roberts isn't buying in. Evan and Tiki Barber debate whether fans should feel obligated to follow the team's whiteout request, why the Jets should provide shirts or white ponchos, and whether the entire promotion makes the franchise look cheap. Tiki explains why rainy weather could actually favor the Jets against Green Bay, while the crew also weighs Aaron Donald's possible return against the Giants, Dan Campbell's costly decisions, Aaron Judge's chances of playing this weekend, and the safest NFL knockout-pool picks.

On today's episode, we speak with an organizer with the Let's Go Network a new and growing project from movement builders who are working to provide infrastructure and training to new and emerging social struggles, especially fights against ICE and AI data centers. From the Let's Go website: Let's Go! is a movement infrastructure and support network founded at the end of 2024. We saw that the national political disaster was pushing many movements into immobility, and multiple political currents into stasis. In order to get out of the national malaise and get going again, we came together around the theme of local struggles, where we saw diverse participants fighting in new and vital ways against top-down, oligarchic projects like data centers, Flock surveillance, and ICE infrastructure.We focus on training and movement infrastructure, supporting these local fights from the bottom up and helping them make global impacts. We think local groups and struggles are where the most interesting things are happening and we want to help those involve connect with each other, skill up, and get the resources they need to win.During our discussion, we cover how Let's Go came into being in the post-Trump 2.0 landscape, the hard and long-form work of building autonomous movement infrastructure, and the approach of Let's Go to bringing together various parts of the expansive social movement ecosystem. We also touch on growing efforts by the state to attack the radical flank of existing social movements and the need to intertwine anti-repression and robust solidarity into our organizing, as well as the need for the growing movement against AI and data centers to push back against attempts by the far-Right to latch onto it. We hope that this interview presents listeners with a fresh approach to how we might all work to build up the existing tapestry of emerging social struggles, at a time when repression is ramping up, while waves of new people are also coming into movement organizing like never before. For more information on Let's Go, check out their website at https://letsgonetwork.org/.

SPOILER ALERT Jason and Rachel review The Uprising, Paul Greengrass' Andrew Garfield historical rebellion movie that somehow becomes a Robin Hood origin story — a twist the marketing apparently decided to spoil before anyone got there. We get into the rough opening weekend, the confusing Robin Hood pivot, the lack of bows and arrows, Andrew Garfield as the Plowman, Jamie Bell as John Ball, the historically messy Peasants' Revolt, Richard II going from simpering teen king to strategic despot overnight, and whether the movie's modern political parallels are too blunt to ignore.

In today's edition of The Daily T, Camilla Tominey and Jacob Rees-Mogg are joined by Tim McNally, the chairman of Piddington parish council, who explains why he is going for the “political jugular” by holding a symbolic referendum on the village leaving the UK.He says the Government's proposals to house more than 1,200 migrants in the Oxfordshire village has prompted residents to plan to take self-defence classes and install a CCTV and an emergency alert system. Plus, Jacob explains why he feels that some of the residents have brought this problem on themselves.Elsewhere, Camilla sits down with Lucy Letby's barrister, Mark McDonald, following the release of Lady Justice Thirlwall's Inquiry report into the safety failings at the Countess of Chester Hospital. He argues the inquiry was flawed from the start because it refused to question Letby's convictions, relied on prosecution narrative hypotheses, and denied Letby the opportunity to participate as a core witness.You can get tickets to The Daily T On The Road Sunday Showdown at Labour conference with Bridget Phillipson at telegraph.co.uk/partyconferences.► Subscribe to our new Daily T YouTube channel: youtube.com/@dailytpodcast► Sign up to our most popular newsletter, From the Editor.

The 10-year Treasury yield has pushed above 5% — and GBI Chief Economist Trey Reik says the “bond market is in complete revolt.” He joins Maggie Lake to explain why the Federal Reserve and Treasury appear to be pulling in opposite directions, what Scott Bessent's increasingly aggressive interventions may be signaling, and why markets could be drifting toward “yield curve control light” — essentially money printing. Trey also breaks down what this means for gold and precious metals, including the critical $4,270 level he's watching in the short term — and why he believes any further weakness could ultimately create one of the best accumulation opportunities investors have seen in months Chapters: 00:00 Bond Market Revolt: Is Money Printing Next? 00:20 Fed, Treasury & Gold: What Investors Need to Know 00:54 Fed Rate Hike: Why Warsh May Be Forced to Act 02:58 Fed Policy, Oil Prices & Warsh's Credibility 04:44 Scott Bessent's Push to Control Markets 07:46 10-Year Treasury Hits 5%: Bond Market in Revolt 09:45 Yield Curve Control: Why Markets Are Worried 12:38 Unprecedented Treasury Moves & “Money Printing Light” 14:44 Gold Price Outlook: Is This the Buying Opportunity? 16:50 Gold Miners, Oil Prices & Rising Costs 18:48 Gold at $4,270: The Critical Support Level 20:37 Why Trey Says It's Time to Accumulate Precious Metals Connect with us online: Website: https://www.wealthion.com X: https://www.x.com/wealthion Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/wealthionofficial/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/wealthion/ #BondMarket #10YearTreasury #FederalReserve #ScottBessent #YieldCurveControl #TreasuryYields #Gold #PreciousMetals #MoneyPrinting #USDollar #Investing #Wealthion ________________________________________________________________________ IMPORTANT NOTE: The information, opinions, and insights expressed by our guests and our hosts do not necessarily reflect the views of Wealthion or the views of their respective employers.

Welcome to In Your Backyard, the latest show in the MeidasTouch Network. Every two weeks, we'll be unpacking how public policy and political failings are playing out in communities around the country. From data centers to forever chemicals to insane utility costs and more, In Your Backyard host Luke Radel talks  to experts, candidates, elected officials, and the real people who are experiencing the very real consequences – and fighting back. In our inaugural episode, Luke digs into what's driving the massive pushback to data centers that's driving a movement throughout the country. As Trump claims we need more Data Centers and that communities rejecting them will end up “backwards and poor,” what do the people on the ground actually think? He hears from individuals on the front lines of fights against Data Centers in Tennessee and in Texas, and interviews Texas gubernatorial candidate Gina Hinojosa about why data centers have become a central issue in her race. Tell us what you think – and what issues playing out in your backyard you'd like to see covered in a future episode. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Episode 5634: Tarrant County Revolt; Whistle Blower Comes Out Against Admins Lockdown On Mail In Voting

Katherine Mangu-Ward (Editor in Chief of Reason) joins host Ron Steslow to examine the growing revolt against automated license-plate surveillance company Flock and what it reveals about privacy in the age of AI.  They begin with the backlash against flock: cameras cut down across dozens of states, communities canceling contracts, and an unlikely coalition uniting against the technology.  They dive into what the anger is really about and whether it channels a broader anxiety about losing control.  From there, they turn to what these systems can now do, as leaked code points to tools that track people—not just license plates—and invites comparisons to China's surveillance state.  Then, they weigh the deeper tension of a company whose only customer is the state, the problem of overcriminalization, and the specter of automated law enforcement.  Finally, they consider the Supreme Court's geofence ruling, the data-broker loophole it leaves wide open, and what privacy is ultimately for.  In Politicology+, they look at a single case that tests how far privacy itself can be treated as a crime: an American Citizen charged with a felony for deleting his phone's data.  POLITICOLOGY+ Not yet a Politicology+ member?
