Podcast appearances and mentions of Richard Drake

Our word of the week is “Empire” and in the last half of the show we will hear University of Montana history professor Richard Drake share his views on the current state of the US Empire. Before that, we will look at organized workers taking strike action at Starbucks, Amazon, and the healthcare workers at the Providence hospitals in Oregon. Plus, we look at the actions of the Swedish Dockworkers Union voting to block Israeli military shipments at their docks. And we hear from Western Montana DSA organizer Robbie Liben and his opinion piece on the healthcare insurance system in the US.

Send us a Text Message.Terrorism is generally held to be political violence that is illegitimate, but what confers legitimacy on some acts of political violence and illegitimacy on others? Is terrorism simply the name we give to the violence we do not like or support, while finding euphemisms for the violence we do like or support? Professor of history Richard Drake asks these questions in his popular course Terrorism - Violence in the Modern World at the University of Montana. With this critical frame in mind, we approach the history of terrorism in the Middle East, from the post-WWI Treaties of Versailles and Sèvres to the ongoing Gaza genocide. Our conversation concludes with a discussion of how Senator Robert La Follette, the subject of a book by Prof. Drake, came to understand US empire in the Middle East following WWI.

Are you curious about the world of PayFac® developers? You've come to the right place. With the acquisition of Payrix, Worldpay for Platforms is now the one-stop payments shop for software companies wherever they are on their payments journey.In this episode of the PayFAQ Embedded Payments podcast, host Bob Butler talks with Jennifer Pinnick, Senior Operations Manager at FIS, to continue an exploration into the exciting world of PayFac. (This isthe second part of a two-part discussion. Click here if you missed the first part, featuring Richard Drake, also from FIS.)The opportunity for growth, new products and enhancements, and finding the different things that each PayFac developer needs is what's most exciting for Pinnick. “We're always looking for new and innovative ways to help our PayFac developers move their needle forward.” One way is to assign support resources to each PayFac developer who knows how you process and use the systems at Worldpay.According to Pinnick, there are many other reasons to choose Worldpay for Platforms, including scalability, reliability, and their focus on payments – the heart of what they do. “Our platforms can support some of the largest both direct and PayFac developers out there. We've helped build some small companies into robust and what some would say unicorns today.”When a new PayFac developer comes to Worldpay, Pinnick said they first look at how they can help the developer do their operational jobs best. “Once our sales and implementation teams have gotten you over the hurdle, we make sure your set up for success, whether that's IQ training, education, and really owning that experience and relationship.” The goal is help you deliver a white-glove experience to your clients.“If you're new and you're not sure where payments really fits into your embedded ecosystem, you can start with our integrated payments model. If you're a little more savvy and secure, I always recommend Payrix as our PayFac-as-a-Service. And then, of course, I also would love to work with you as a PayFac developer and continue to help you grow and develop your business,” Pinnick says. “We can help you grow your business and stay profitable in this ever-evolving marketplace.”Have a listen and reach out today to find the right solution for you!

The world of payment facilitation is an exciting place for software companies who want to become PayFac® developers. In this first part of a two-part conversation on the PayFAQ Embedded Payments podcast, Richard Drake, Senior Strategic Partner Manager at FIS, along with host Bob Butler, provide a look inside “PayFac land” and how Worldpay for Platforms has become the one-stop shop for software companies wherever they are on their payments journey.“We've been offering the payment facilitator model since 2010, but we never had the ability between referral and full-blown payment facilitator. And we now have that with the Payrix acquisition,” he says. The in-between model is a key entry point into payment facilitation for software companies, because it offers attractive benefits and infrastructure support without a lot of the risk.Drake explains that while everybody wants to be a full-blown PayFac to own the payments relationship and experience, you have to be ready to do it. “First of all, you've got to have a decent payments volume. If you don't have enough volume to generate the revenue to offset the costs of being a payment facilitator, then it doesn't make a lot of sense.”He also says you need an experienced payments risk manager to onboard submerchants as well as a support infrastructure to answer questions about chargebacks, settlements, and billing. “When you're a payment facilitator, while we're on the back end, while we're the engine, submerchants really have no idea who we are, because the payment facilitator is providing the infrastructure, the support, and has the relationship with the submerchant.”It sounds like a big responsibility because it is. According to Drake, the reality is payments is hard, and being a PayFac is payments on steroids. Having someone who knows all the pitfalls and can help guide you toward better decisions is invaluable to your success. “We were a pioneer in building out this product and have the best and the most superior support team in the industry. You get all that knowledge at your beck and call, ready to go.”So, take a listen and breathe a shy of relief. Then watch for part two of the conversation coming soon!

On this edition of Parallax Views, historian Dr. Richard Drake of the University of Montana returns to the program to discuss the new 2nd edition of his book The Revolutionary Mystique and Terrorism in Contemporary Italy. In this conversation we discuss the terrorism, from both the radical left and the radical right, that rocked Italy in the 1960s, 1970s, and 1980s in what has become known as the Years of Lead. Among the topics of discussion are the hyper-fascist Traditionalist philosopher Julius Evola, the Red Brigades, the kidnapping of Aldo Moro, the deeper reasons for the Years of Lead, what the relevance of the Italian Years of Lead may be to Americans in light of the January 6th Capitol riots, the questions arising about murky subjects like Operation Gladio and Licio Gelli's P2 Masonic lodge, the failures of the Italian government in dealing with terrorism during the Years of Lead, and much, much more.

It’s the final installment in our space horror movie adventure and we’re both in agreement that we went out with a bang because 2005’s “Doom” was not that bad. We both enjoyed this film for what it was, a mid-2000’s movie based on a video game with a pretty famous cast. Join us as we discuss why future generations insist on exploring Mars when it never pans out well, Jen’s passionate support of Barry Pepper, and how this movie dips into Alien’s script every now and then. Be sure to rate and subscribe otherwise we’ll make you take a space bubble to Mars and defeat humanoid creatures.

No matter what business you are in, you have to face the reality that in order to grow, you have to let go of doing everything by yourself. The same idea applies even when you are a landlord or a real estate investor. That is why it is equally important to find a property management company that can take care of the day to day stuff for you so you can channel your energy to doing what you do best. In this episode of Texas Hold ‘Em, host Richard Drake talks about how he is helping folks think more about holding rental properties and keeping them instead of having to do the fix and flip stuff or deal with the current crazy stock market. As the owner of Renters Warehouse, Richard knows the ins and outs of how you can build wealth so you can retire or do something different. He also invites the Chief Operating Officer of the company, Mark Zimmerman, to talk about what they do, how they do it, and why.

On this edition of Parallax Views, the historian Charles Austin Beard is not widely discussed today, but in the early 20th century he was a juggernaut amongst public intellectuals. Along with his wife Mary Beard, Charles Beard is one of the forebears of the progressive school of historical interpretation. He is perhaps best know for 1913 book An Economic Interpretation of the Constitution of the United States, which provocatively re-evaluated the founding fathers as being driven primarily by material factors rather than ideals. Additionally Bear was a staunch anti-imperialist. So much so, in fact, that he went on to oppose U.S. intervention into WWII. Due to his stance on U.S. involvement in WWII at the time Beard fell out of favor with historians in the latter half of the 20th century. On this edition of the program Dr. Richard Drake, the Lucille Spear Research Chair in Politics and History at University of Montana, joins us to discuss his reevaluating this forgotten figure in his new book Charles Austin Beard: The Return of the Master Historian of American Imperialism.   We begin the conversation by discussing Richard's adjacent research into the great poet Robinson Jeffers, whom shares a great deal in common with Beard. From there we delve into how Richard became interested in figures like Beard and Jeffers, which he says originated with his historical research into European history and the Italian Red Brigades. We then delve into the concept of America as Empire, what it means, and how it relates to Beard's work. After laying that groundwork, Richard and I begin delving into our main subject, the historian Charles Austin Beard, by explaining how Richard's new book relates to his previous work The Education of an Anti-Imperialist: Robert La Follette and U.S. Expansion. Additionally, Richard fills listeners in on how Beard had a strong intellectual collaboration with his wife Mary Ritter Beard, a historian in her on own right who chronicled American women's history, that led to the influential two volume The Rise of American Civilization. Early 20th Century Wisconsin Senator Robert La FolletteCharles Beard's wife, Mary Ritter Beard, was an influential historian her on write often credited as a founding figure for the field of American women's historyThe Rise of American Civilization by Charles and Mary Beard was influential to historians in the first half of the 20th century Richard and I then dig into how Beard became more staunchly anti-imperialist after WWI. Additionally we talk a bit about Beard's radical reinterpretation of the United States Constitutions and his influence on latter 20th century public intellectuals like Gore Vidal and Howard Zinn as well as the Wisconsin School of American diplomatic history as championed by William Appleman Williams. More broadly Richard explains just how much of a revered public intellectual Beard was in his own time and the values that drove his thought. The title of Gore Vidal's Perpetual War for Perpetual Peace is a reference to Charles Austin Beard  We close out the show by discussing the controversy surrounding Beard's opposition to America's entry into WWII. During this portion of the conversation Richard notes how Beard became increasingly critical of FDR both domestically (Beard criticized the New Deal as not doing enough) and in regards to foreign policy. Despite this, Richard points out that Beard was firmly opposed to Adolf Hitler and viewed the notorious Fuhrer of the Third Reich as monstrous. Nonetheless, Beard ultimately believed that U.S. entry into WWII would lead to a disastorous. expansion of American empire and militarism. Richard says that Beard's analyses of these matters are not infallible, but argues that there is still something to be gained from reevaluating Beard. Additionally, Richard and I briefly touch open how Beard, in contrast to some of his contemporaries (most notably Harry Elmer Barnes), refused to dabble in or promote anti-Semitism and in fact had many pro-semitic tendencies. We close out the conversation with Richard's comments on the present and why he believes it is important to reconsider Charles Austin Beard in the 21st centur CHARLES AUSTIN BEARD:THE RETURN OF THE MASTER HISTORIAN OF AMERICAN IMPERIALISMBY RICHARD DRAKEAVAILABLE NOW FROMCORNELL UNIVERSITY PRESS SUPPORT PARALLAX VIEWS ON PATREON!

During the first half of the 20th century the American historian Charles Austin Beard enjoyed both professional success and a national prominence that suffered with his outspoken opposition to the direction of foreign policy under Franklin Roosevelt. In Charles Austin Beard: The Return of the Master Historian of American Imperialism (Cornell University Press, 2018), Richard Drake traces the development of Beard’s ideas in this area and his involvement in the contemporary discourse over current events. Drake identifies Beard’s time at Oxford University as key to the development of his thinking, with his introduction to the works of John Ruskin and John Atkinson Hobson. Though Beard’s early writings led to a friendship with the progressive politician Robert La Follette, the two men disagreed about America’s intervention in the First World War, a cause Beard supported. In its aftermath, however, Beard reconsidered his opinion, and by the 1930s emerged as a prominent critic of America’s involvement in overseas disputes. Beard held to his views even after America’s entry into the Second World War, establishing an unlikely association with former president Herbert Hoover and offering a prescient critique in its aftermath of the consequences of America’s postwar foreign policy.
