Melvyn Bragg and guests discuss the idea that Civility, in one of its meanings, is among the most valuable social virtues: the skill to discuss topics that really matter to you, with someone who disagrees and yet somehow still get along. In another of its meanings, when Civility describes the limits of behaviour that is acceptable, the idea can reflect society at its worst: when only those deemed 'civil enough' are allowed their rights, their equality and even their humanity. Between these extremes, Civility is a slippery idea that has fascinated philosophers especially since the Reformation, when competing ideas on how to gain salvation seemed to make it impossible to disagree and remain civil.With Teresa Bejan Professor of Political Theory at Oriel College, University of OxfordPhil Withington Professor of History at the University of SheffieldAnd John Gallagher Associate Professor of Early Modern History at the University of LeedsProducer: Simon TillotsonReading list: Teresa M.

We've all heard the story of Adam and Eve. The so-called “first sin,” the disobedience, the downfall. But what if we've been reading it wrong? What if this ancient story isn't about the first sinner…but the first failed leader? In this episode, leadership scholar and host Dr. Kimberly DeSimone challenges centuries of patriarchal interpretation by reframing the Genesis narrative through the lens of modern, evidence-based leadership theory. From blame-shifting to moral cowardice, we explore how Adam's behavior maps onto core leadership failures across five foundational models: Transformational, Servant, Authentic, Adaptive, and Ethical Leadership. We also examine the enduring harm caused by reading Eve as the source of sin—a misreading that has fueled generations of bias, blame, and the marginalization of women. With insight from feminist and womanist scholars like Phyllis Trible, Renita Weems, and Elisabeth Schüssler Fiorenza, this episode is a powerful call to reclaim sacred texts in ways that center accountability, equity, and truth. Key Topics Covered: Re-examining Genesis 2–3: What the Bible actually says vs. how it's been taught How Adam failed as a leader, not just as a man of faith Applying 5 modern leadership theories to the Eden narrative The damaging legacy of blaming Eve—and by extension, women—for failure The power of feminist biblical interpretation and why it matters How reclaiming this story can lead to more just and equitable leadership today Biblical References: Genesis 2:16–17, 2:22, 3:6, 3:12 (The Holy Bible, New Revised Standard Version. Division of Christian Education of the National Council of the Churches of Christ in the USA, 1989.) Scholars & Thought Leaders: Trible, P. (1984). Texts of Terror Trible, P. (1978). God and the Rhetoric of Sexuality Elisabeth Schüssler Fiorenza – In Memory of Her (1983) Renita J. Weems – Just a Sister Away (1988) Carol Meyers – Discovering Eve (1988) Harding, S. (1991). Whose Science? Whose Knowledge?: Thinking from Women's Lives Code, L. (1991). What Can She Know? Feminist Theory and the Construction of Knowledge My Manifestatement (Key Takeaway): “It's time to stop interpreting scripture only through the eyes of patriarchy. If we want better leaders, we need better stories—ones that hold power accountable and stop demonizing women to excuse weak leadership.” Let's Connect @AdvancingWomenPodcast Please subscribe, rate, and share the podcast!

Stefan Collini, FBA.Professor Emeritus of Intellectual History and English Literature, University of Cambridge.The Donald Winch Lectures in Intellectual History.University of St Andrews.11th, 12th & 13th October 2022.In the course of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, universities expanded to include a wide range of what came to be regarded as academic ‘disciplines'. In Britain, the study of ‘English literature' was eventually to become one of the biggest and most popular of these subjects, yet it was in some ways an awkward fit: not obviously susceptible to the ‘scientific' treatment considered the hallmark of a scholarly discipline, it aroused a kind of existential commitment in many of those who taught and studied it. These lectures explore some of the ways in which these tensions worked themselves out in the last two hundred years, drawing on a wide range of sources to understand the aspirations invested in the subject, the resistance that it constantly encountered, and the distinctive forms of enquiry that came to define it. In so doing, they raise larger questions about the changing character of universities, the peculiar cultural standing of ‘literature', and the conflicting social expectations that societies have entertained towards higher education and specialized scholarship.Handout - Lecture 2: Careers1. ‘His tastes and pursuits would no doubt lead him to lecture on the Structure of the English Language and its affinities with cognate tongues, rather than upon Rhetoric or the Art of Composition, but when it was mentioned to him that the latter formed part of the duties of the chair, he made no difficulty about undertaking it.'2. ‘We think that the Professor of the English Language and Literature at our College ought, if it were possible, to unite all the qualifications which we think desirable, to be a thoroughly educated man, a man whose peculiar learning is based upon the sound scholarship which is the general training of English gentlemen. He ought to have made a systematic study of the English Language and English Literature: a systematic study of the Language, so as to be thoroughly conversant with its etymological structure, and the history of its formation through its successive stages; a systematic study of the Literature, so that his familiar knowledge of it may not be confined within the limits of one or two periods. He ought to have experience as a Lecturer, and to be able to lecture well: but he ought to be prepared not only to lecture, but to teach. We must bear in mind, and our Professor must bear in mind, that the practical end of our English Class is to teach our students to use their own language well both in speaking and writing.'3. ‘All the world is standing, every chatterer in every newspaper thinks he is good enough for English language and literature.'4. ‘The lecture list of Easter Term was considered. It was agreed that the Reader in Phonetics should be asked either to change the subject of his lecture on Ugrian Phonetics or to remove it from the list, as in the opinion of the Board the subject did not fall within the scope of the school.'5. ‘The main point, of course, was to choose a scholar and not a chatterer; now the chatterers have command of the newspapers and the scholars have not. That's all. I have no doubt that to any maker of paragraphs, Matthew, Ealdorman of babblers, seems a greater man than William of Chester'.6. ‘In those early years everyone, whatever her natural bias, read for the English School at Oxford, because that was the only course for which adequate preparation could at that time be secured.'7. ‘Well, I have no hesitation in de-classing the whole professorial squad - Bradley, Herford, Dowden, Walter Raleigh, Elton, Saintsbury'... [Saintsbury is allowed to have some strengths, though in spite of his style rather than because of it] ...For the rest: Professor Walter Raleigh is improving. Professor Elton has never fallen to the depths of sterile and pretentious banality which are the natural and customary level of the remaining three.' This is a public episode.

Welcome to Episode 39 of the Talent Intelligence Collective podcast! Alan Walker, Alison Ettridge, and Toby Culshaw are joined by Kumar Vaibhav, a seasoned TI professional who has built and led talent intelligence functions at Amazon, Walmart, Philips, and now Atlassian, bringing over 11 years of experience in transforming raw data into strategic workforce insights.The episode begins with exciting news as Toby announces Lightcast's acquisition of Rhetoric, bringing 800 million profiles and 280 million company records to expand their people and company data capabilities. This strategic move represents a significant shift from aggregated TI data to actionable intelligence, bridging the gap between macro workforce planning and micro-level talent acquisition needs.Drawing from his recent experience at RecFest, Toby explores how talent intelligence has become so embedded across HR functions that it no longer needs its own dedicated stage—TI is now the underlying foundation for everything from employer branding to skills intelligence. The conversation touches on the evolving landscape of AI implementation in recruiting, revealing that while efficiency gains are evident, true systematic automation remains limited.Kumar shares his remarkable journey from founding a dramatics club at university to becoming a TI leader across some of the world's largest technology companies. His insights into building stakeholder rapport are particularly compelling—from his first project at Philips where he successfully convinced leadership to change their APAC headquarters location, to developing innovative approaches like using Power BI to analyse borough-level talent distribution in New York during the post-COVID workplace transformation.The discussion delves into Kumar's unique perspective on building world-class TI functions from scratch, emphasising three critical elements: aligning with business strategy, demonstrating operational ROI alongside strategic value, and building credibility through transparency and stakeholder trust. His examples span from competitive intelligence in finance sourcing to innovative location strategies that consider both external market data and internal talent mobility patterns.Kumar offers fascinating insights into the growing prominence of TI teams in India, explaining how the evolution from cost arbitrage to genuine skills development has created a thriving ecosystem of talent intelligence professionals. His candid revelations about working with Toby—including the memorable moment when Toby questioned whether TI truly adds value—provide both humour and profound insights into the self-reflection required in this evolving field.The episode concludes with Kumar's excitement about joining Atlassian, where he's leveraging Confluence to build dynamic project repositories that double as internal databases, potentially revolutionising how TI knowledge is captured and accessed through AI-powered systems.Until next time, stay curious, stay brilliant, and most importantly, stay intelligent!As ever - big thanks to our sponsors: https://lightcast.io

This is the third lecture from the Gresham Festival of Musical Ideas.https://www.gresham.ac.uk/watch-now/series/musical-ideas-2025This dialogue presents the what and why of Ancient Greek music, and its profound role in philosophy, society and the individual. Education without music was an impossibility in ancient Greece; virtue without music, equally so. One scholar (writing in the late twentieth century) compared the pervasive social presence and impact of the medium of mousikē in Ancient Greece to that of television. But with its participatory motor training and habituation, mousikē, was also a primary mode of acculturation: a way to shape the perceptual attunement and overall outlook of the members of a political community. Engagement with poetry and music pervaded all aspects of Ancient Greek life, and because musical education was the core of Greek education, it was also the core of Greek citizenship and of the virtues. Different musical modes were even thought to impart distinct virtues; for Plato, training in musicality could harmonise the soul, while changes in musical styles and genres could dislocate the entire polity.This lecture was recorded by Milton Mermikides and Melissa Lane on 29th June 2025 at Barnard's Inn Hall, London.Melissa Lane is Gresham Professor of Rhetoric. Melissa is also the Class of 1943 Professor of Politics, Princeton University and is also Associated Faculty in the Department of Classics and Department of Philosophy. Previously she was Senior University Lecturer at Cambridge University in the Faculty of History and Fellow of King's College, Cambridge. Milton Mermikides is Gresham Professor of Music.He is Associate Professor in Music at the University of Surrey, Professor of Guitar at the Royal College of Music and Deputy Director of the International Guitar Research Centre.The transcript of the lecture is available from the Gresham College website: https://www.gresham.ac.uk/watch-now/virtues-musicGresham College has offered free public lectures for over 400 years, thanks to the generosity of our supporters.

DPRK: UNIFICATION OR DISINTEGRATION RHETORIC? DAVID MAXWELL, @GORDONGCHANG, GATESTONE, NEWSWEEK, THE HILL 1958 KIM IN BEIJING
In this episode of The P.A.S. Report, Professor Nick Giordano exposes the escalating war on ICE and the coordinated left-wing effort to obstruct immigration enforcement. As ICE agents face violence, harassment, and even attempted murder, Democrats and media elites continue to fuel the fire by comparing law enforcement officers to Nazis and labeling detention centers as “concentration camps.” Nick dismantles the false narratives, reveals how child labor scandals tied to Democrat donors are being whitewashed, and shows how the same people who weaponized the federal government against parents and Catholics are now accusing Trump of authoritarianism for simply enforcing the law. Episode Highlights: Radical activists stalk, harass, and attempt to murder ICE agents while Democrats cheer from the sidelines Child migrant labor exposed on a California pot farm, but media calls it a “farm raid” The same party that weaponized government against parents now cries “fascism” when Trump enforces immigration law
Steve Gruber speaks with Michigan Senate Minority Leader Aric Nesbitt about a shocking accusation from Democrat State Rep. Carrie Rheingans, who claimed that Republican Leader Matt Hall is “platforming Nazis.” Nesbitt responds to the inflammatory rhetoric, discusses the growing extremism on the left, and questions just how low Democrats are willing to go in their political attacks.
Rhetoric as Roadmap: Israeli Political Language and the Future of Gaza by Radio Islam
While envoys from Israel and Hamas met this week in Qatar to negotiate the latest peace effort for the release of the hostages and a ceasefire in Gaza, a new report warns that Canada should pay closer attention to the millions of dollars in funding that has found its way into our country from Qatar. The report was released by a New York–based organization, the Institute for the Study of Global Antisemitism and Policy (ISGAP), run by Charles Asher Small, a Canadian scholar. His outfit includes academics from around the world who combat antisemitism, and includes some high-profile Jewish leaders: Irwin Cotler, Abraham Foxman of the Anti-Defamation League, Israeli politician and human rights advocate Nathan Sharansky, and Rabbi Abraham Cooper of the U.S.-based Simon Wiesenthal Center. The new report suggests growing anti-Israel sentiment in Canada, particularly at universities, can be traced to funds coming in from several Qatari charities that also support the global Muslim Brotherhood movement and Hamas. The report also suggests the money supporting protests on campuses such as McGill, Concordia, U of T and York, has links to Iran, Russia and China. Previous ISGAP reports have revealed how billions of dollars in Qatari money bought influence on elite U.S. college campuses. In this latest report, released June 26, ISGAP calls for Canada to ban the Muslim Brotherhood—which has already been banned most recently by Jordan, but also the United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia, Libya, Egypt and Austria, and is now under the microscope in France. The authors also name names of some Canadian Muslim politicians and bureaucrats who, it is claimed, exert influence and have ties or even worked for charities that have been linked to the terrorist groups overseas. On today's episode of The CJN's flagship news podcast, North Star, host Ellin Bessner speaks with Charles Asher Small about how Canada's traditional “niceness” has allowed the situation to became a national security threat. Related links Read the June 25 ISGAP report on how Canada has been infiltrated by financing from Qatar, linked to supporters of the banned terrorist group Hamas, and also to the extremist Islamist Muslim Brotherhood movement.

The discussion expands into Axios revelations that House Democrats, speaking anonymously, described their own constituents demanding violence, including calls for bloodshed and open defiance of laws to resist Trump policies. As Hakeem Jeffries stops short of condemning such rhetoric in a CNN interview, the hosts argue this signals tacit approval of escalation. The episode concludes with commentary on New York politics, claiming rising support for radical candidates and a troubling mainstreaming of extremist ideas under the Democratic banner.

LOOK UP! Superman soars into theaters this Friday, and with it, a new era for DC comics begins on the silver screen. That's right, Superman is the first feature film in the newly minted DC Universe (DCU) and the expectations could not be higher for Director and Co-CEO of DC Studios, James Gunn. Is Gunn able to apply his signature comic book movie style to a larger-than-life character like Superman? Does relative newcomer David Corenswet have what it takes to don the cape and trunks? Were all those highly publicized casting decisions the right fits? We discuss all of that and so much more in our Spoiler-Free Superman Review.

Far-Left Militants Ambush Texas Border Patrol Agents, Shoot Officer In Neck After Months Of Democrat Rhetoric Attacking Immigration Enforcement
Across two fiery broadcasts, the host weaves together accusations of escalating violence and political extremism. The first segment details an Axios report alleging that Democrat voters demand lawmakers “get shot” to oppose Trump, recounting attacks on ICE agents and invoking imagery of guerrilla warfare and cartel influence. The second transcript expands the narrative, claiming a deliberate effort to import millions of illegal immigrants to fracture American society and create a one-party state. With references to arson attempts, gang control of public spaces, and calls for deadly force, the commentary frames the situation as a brewing civil war, asserting that only Donald Trump stands in the way of national collapse.

Kristen is a DePaul College of Law graduate and currently works as the Owner of Lojewski Abuse and Injury Law. Since the age of 9, Kristen has had a burning desire to help others. Since that point, she was the second person in her family to graduate from College and the first to complete a graduate program. Her journey is one of a lifelong passion, bringing out just how much of a human endeavor the Law should and can be. Kristen and I started with her introduction to DePaul University College of Law, where, as a lover of school, she would excel in Law School. While she neither hated nor loved it, her experience was full of discovery. Coming in wanting to do family law because of her background, her perspective would be changed through her various internships and clerkships, showing the value of trying different sectors of the Law throughout Law School. We then moved to after Law School, where she would pursue work as a Trial attorney, and move to Florida, where she would encounter some bad experiences, speak on the importance of Company Culture, and then land herself at the Office of the State Attorney in Florida. Kristen would speak about the immense value of networking, talking, and finding those who are in the places you want to be, gaining their guidance, leading to massive success. Kristen would return to Milwaukee, showing her ability to pivot and try new experiences. Finally, Kristen and I would speak about the process of hanging her own shingle in the legal world, through Lojewski Abuse and Injury Law, which became some of the most fulfilling work she has done in her career. This episode with Kristen is a testament to being able to pivot in one's career when an itch for something new becomes apparent, as well as finding those lifelong mentors who can be a massive help and support system throughout any given career!Kristen's LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/kristenlojewskiŁojewski Abuse and Injury Law: http://www.lojewskilaw.com/Be sure to check out the Official Sponsors for the Lawyers in the Making Podcast:Rhetoric - takes user briefs and motions and compares them against the text of opinions written by judges to identify ways to tailor their arguments to better persuade the judges handling their cases.

Let's talk about Trump's Medicaid cuts and cutting through the rhetoric....
Welcome to this summer flashback episode of BaseCamp Live! In today's conversation, host Davies Owens revisits a powerful interview with Andrew Pudewa, founder and director of the Institute for Excellence in Writing.In an age of shrinking vocabularies, short attention spans, and over-reliance on screens, Andrew shares why writing and speaking well are more critical than ever. He explains that students cannot think complex thoughts without the words to express them, and highlights how classical education – with its focus on grammar, logic, and rhetoric – equips students to become articulate, thoughtful communicators who can engage the world with truth and clarity.Andrew unpacks the decline he's witnessed over three decades in students' vocabulary and attention spans, and why reading aloud, memorizing beautiful language, and teaching students to write and speak persuasively are not just academic exercises but essential skills for life and faithfulness. He challenges parents and educators to see education not merely as preparation for wealth and comfort, but as formation for mission in the world.With practical encouragement, humorous reflections, and deep conviction, Andrew calls us back to raising students who can read, think, write, and speak well for God's glory and the good of others.
In these back-to-back segments, Tara dives into the public outrage over Idaho mass murderer Bryan Kohberger's plea deal, which spares him the death penalty despite overwhelming evidence of a brutal quadruple stabbing. She contrasts this with South Carolina's infamous serial killer Todd Kohlhepp, whose life sentences are a sobering reminder of how even the worst criminals can manipulate the system. The discussion then pivots to the alarming rise of Marxist ideology among Democrat leaders, spotlighting New York mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani's claim that prosecuting burglary is “violence” while the crimes themselves are not. Tara draws chilling parallels to China's Cultural Revolution, where oppressor-vs-oppressed narratives justified atrocities, warning that similar dual justice is taking root in America. She also exposes CNN's promotion of an app designed to help fugitives—including child rapists—evade ICE, underscoring how radical activism and political opportunism are dismantling public safety and the rule of law.

This is Episode 71 of the Consortium Podcast, an academic audio blog of Kepler Education. In this episode, Timothy Knotts gives a plenary talk on Responsible Rhetoric: Persuading Toward Truth. This talk was given at the 2024 Consortium conference in Maynard, MA on July 12-13, 2024. Kepler's Consortiums provide resources and regional connections for Christian families, teachers, and educational organizations to expand the reach of classical education and foster human flourishing for generations to come. The New England Consortium of Classical Educators (NECCE) exists to point New England to the unifying Truth found in Christ and His creation, the Good of fellowship with like-minded individuals, and the Beauty reflected in great works of literature, science, and art, through teaching, conversation, and conferences. Timothy Knotts is a co-founder of the Consortium, and lives in Windsor, Connecticut with his wife, Cynthia, and their four protégés. He is the author of Reasoning Together: Philosophy, a soon to be released high school introduction to philosophy, and is occasionally published on the CiRCE and Kepler blogs. Timothy is a Lead Curriculum Developer for Classical Conversations, a CiRCE Institute certified master teacher, a recovering attorney, an amateur poet, and lover of the beautiful.
In this episode – recorded prior to Trump's announcement of a ceasefire between Iran and Israel – Calvin and Alex unpack the alarming reality of US strikes on Iran, recently announced by President Trump on June 21, and the ensuing escalation of tensions between the US, Israel, and Iran. We situate these recent events within decades of neoconservative influence and prior escalations, including the 2020 assassination of Qasem Soleimani by US Forces (which we covered back in Episode 31), as well as Israel's “pre-emptive” strikes against Iran in 2024 and earlier in June 2025.We historicize the current conflict by highlighting the success of the 2015 Iran Nuclear Deal (JCPOA) in preventing escalation, contrasting it with Trump's abandonment and the Democrats' failure to defend it, and debunk media narratives about Iran's nuclear ambitions, confirming Iran's compliance with the Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT). We then dissect the propagandistic pro-war rhetoric that has been employed most recently, such as Trump's bizarre Truth Social posts announcing the "very successful attack," and exposing the dangerous slippages between US and Israeli foreign policy, evidenced by Senator Ted Cruz's admissions on a recent episode of Tucker Carlson's show.Finally, drawing on rhetorical scholars such as Jeffrey Tulis and Gordon Mitchell, we explore the libidinal urges driving contemporary presidential rhetoric and US war policy, and how intelligence is manipulated through "Team B intelligence coups," raising concerns about reliance on foreign intelligence like the Mossad. We conclude with a resolute call (echoing our earlier episode) for "No war with Iran," urging public dissent against these increasingly reckless and dangerous decisions.Works and concepts cited in this episode:Curtis, A.

How should Christians approach immigration, justice, and faith in today's cultural climate? In this episode of the Voxology Podcast, Mike and Tim dive into "Joyful, Peaceful, and Gracious Noncompliance," exploring what scripture teaches about welcoming the stranger, showing compassion, and advocating for justice. Drawing on the work of experts like Matthew Soerens and their own reflections, they tackle the complex intersections of cruciformity, faith and politics, and the role of the church in society. Through real-life stories, scripture analysis, and discussions on cultural challenges, they address the dehumanizing language often used in immigration debates, the tension between legality and justice, and the church's responsibility to embody the teachings of Jesus. What does it mean to love our neighbor, especially when they are vulnerable? How can the church navigate these issues with humility, courage, and hope? Engage with thoughtful insights, critical questions, and a call to action to advocate for justice in peaceful, gracious ways.
