Podcasts about Riedl

This week on Facing the Future, Jessica Riedl, a Senior Fellow at the Manhattan Institute, joined me to discuss her list of the top 10 federal budget gimmicks and the potential for tariffs to raise revenues, harm the economy or both.   As we went through Riedl's list of budget gimmicks, it was clear that many of them are in play this year. She mentioned, for example, “fake expiration dates” and using a “current policy” baseline. A key feature of the recently passed congressional budget resolution is the use of a current policy baseline to assume that extending the expiration date of the 2017 tax cuts will have no budgetary effect.

Economist Jessica Riedl, Sr. Fellow at Manhattan Institute, explains why she thinks the White House is misreading the role of tariffs. From the overlooked logic of trade deficits as capital surpluses to the bond market's surprising sway over Trump's strategy, Riedl shares her take on what's really driving U.S. policy. We also look at how Congress has slowly surrendered its power, the chaos behind DOGE's recent spending cuts, and why America's political climate might be holding back rational decision-making.

Team Internet CEO Michael Riedl joined Steve Darling from Proactive's OTC studio in New York City to update the company's strategic progress across its three core business segments: domains, comparison, and search. Each division, Riedl explained, is navigating a distinct phase of growth, underpinned by a clear long-term vision and strong operational execution. In the domains division, Team Internet continues to serve as a trusted partner to some of the world's leading web hosting and cybersecurity providers. The company's expertise in securing and managing global online identities remains a foundational strength, supporting businesses as they establish and protect their digital presence in an increasingly interconnected world. The comparison segment has seen exceptional performance in 2024, with over 40% organic growth year-to-date. Profitability in this division has also surged, with profits increasing by an impressive 75%. This momentum reflects strong consumer demand, effective execution, and the scalability of Team Internet's comparison platforms. Looking ahead, the company has set its sights on international expansion, with plans to take its successful comparison model beyond Germany into new high-potential markets. Riedl also shared insights into the ongoing transformation of the search business, which is transitioning from the legacy AdSense for Domains model to a more advanced offering known as "Related Search on Content." While the shift presents transitional challenges, the new model is already gaining traction. “Even though this transition gives us some challenges, as demonstrated by our recent reforecast, this business is really going very well,” Riedl noted. He highlighted that the search division is now scaling rapidly, adding nearly $10 million in annual recurring revenue (ARR) every week—a clear signal of its growth potential and strategic importance. The U.S. market continues to play a central role in Team Internet's overall strategy, currently accounting for nearly 50% of total revenue. It is also home to key strategic partners, including Google, Amazon, Meta, and GoDaddy, reinforcing the company's strong ecosystem and market influence. To conclude, Riedl emphasized Team Internet's forward-looking goals: scaling the comparison business internationally, continuing the technological and operational transformation of the search division, and deepening its domain services for a growing global client base. With strong momentum across all areas of the business, Team Internet is well-positioned for sustained growth and innovation in the digital space. #proactiveinvestors #aim #tig #otcqx #tigxf #MichaelRiedl #SearchTechnology #AdTech #DigitalTransformation #ARRGrowth #DomainServices #ComparisonPlatforms #OTCMarkets #ProactiveInvestors #OnlineIdentity #AdSense #RelatedSearch #USMarketStrategy #TechInterview

Der kleine Bruder des Todes ist der Schlaf, heißt es landläufig. Denn, die Stunden Schlaf, die wir nicht schlafen, die hole sich der Bruder, also der Tod. Davon war auch der Dramatiker Friedrich Wolf überzeugt. Seit der Erfindung der Glühbirne ist Gevatter Tod immer blasser geworden. Wozu sich am Sonnenlicht orientieren? Auch in der Nacht steht uns jetzt nahezu alles zur Verfügung: In München jetzt auch die U-Bahn ohne Unterlass. Unser Autor Nicolas Riedl hat sich seine Gedanken zur Einführung der Nacht-U-Bahn gemacht. Hören Sie seinen Text „In schlaflosen Bahnen“, den Sabrina Khalil für uns eingelesen hat.

Schulz, Sandra www.deutschlandfunk.de, Interviews

This educational program is made possible by an unrestricted grant from Takeda Pharmaceuticals.Hereditary angioedema (HAE) is a rare genetic disease that results in immunologic attacks that can be life-threatening. HAE is the result of reduced levels of C1-inhibitor, a protein involved in various physiological processes in plasma, most notably with the complement system. C1-inhibitor also binds and inhibits plasma kallikrein and factor XIa, thereby affecting bradykinin production. It is believed that the disruptions of these processes lead to fluid leaking from the blood to connective tissue which leads to HAE attacks. It is these HAE attacks that tend to put persons in the emergency department or unable to attend work or school.Numerous therapies are now available for patients with HAE to both treat acute attacks and prevent attacks via prophylactic treatment.With so many treatment options now available, is it disheartening to learn that not all patients with HAE are receiving equal care or access to care. Patients with HAE living in rural areas as patients from underrepresented racial or ethnic backgrounds are not provided the same level of care as patients, especially Caucasian patients,  living in more affluent areas. This panel discussion by three clinical research leaders in HAE, Drs. Aleena Banerji, Timothy Craig, and Marc Riedl, provide an overview of the discrepancies in care observed in certain patient populations, as well as a discussion on best practices to reduce those inequalities moving forward.To view this program in video format, go to https://checkrare.com/improving-health-equity-in-hereditary-angioedema-hae-a-panel-discussion/

Systemkritiker sind am Ende die Helden. Deshalb konstruiert, wer Macht will Lügennarrative, geschickterweise für die unkritische UND die kritische Masse. Die schwer benennbaren Machtzentren operieren mit einer Bewusstseinsindustrie, die für jeden Menschen die passende Lüge produziert. Psychologische Operationen, sogenannte PsyOps, werden stets doppelbödig durchgeführt. Das bedeutet, dass es abseits der primären Lüge noch mindestens eine sekundäre gibt, die denen als Wahrheit und Lösung erscheint, die sich „aufgeklärt“ wähnen. Hören Sie erneut eine Gesellschaftskritik von Nicolas Riedl, der sich immer wieder bemüht, Lügenschleier und systemisch vorgehaltene Hoffnungsnarrative zu durchschauen.

In this presentation delivered at the "Metaphysics and the Matter with Things: Thinking with Iain McGilchrist" conference—a collaborative event by the Center for Process Studies (CPS) and the California Institute of Integral Studies (CIIS) in March 2024—John Vervaeke explores the concept of "mattering" and its critical role in understanding the meaning of life. He contrasts "meaning in life" with the broader "meaning of life," emphasizing the importance of connectedness and belonging over mere purpose. Vervaeke draws on research to introduce "religio," a deep sense of connectedness that underpins our existence, and critiques materialism for overlooking the relational aspects of human life. Through cognitive science, biology, and philosophy, Vervaeke demonstrates how our intelligence and problem-solving abilities are deeply intertwined with our capacity to find what truly matters.   —   Metaphysics and the Matter with Things: Thinking with Iain McGilchrist was a collaborative conference put on by the Center for Process Studies (CPS) and the California Institute of Integral Studies (CIIS) in March of 2024. This three-day conference brought leading process thinkers across various disciplines, including physics, neuroscience, psychology, philosophy, and theology, into critical dialogue with McGilchrist's work in a collegial effort to assess, question, extend, and apply it.

Why is the national debt a bigger issue now than it was in the past? Is it a problem that people making minimum wage can't afford a two-bedroom apartment? What is the economic rationale behind gift cards? Brian Riedl joins Dominic Pino to discuss. Brian Riedl is a senior fellow at the Manhattan Institute, focusing on budget, tax, and economic policy. A prolific researcher, Riedl has published nearly 600 studies and articles since 2001 on federal spending, taxes, deficits, and economic policy, and has assisted in the writing of several New York Times best-selling books.

Brian Riedl, Senior Fellow at the Manhattan Institute, joined Guy Benson on the Guy Benson Show today to discuss the pitfalls of Kamala Harris' proposed ban on price gouging. They explored how this policy could lead to nationwide food shortages, drawing parallels to the 1970s when price controls resulted in significant shortages. Riedl and Benson also tackled the concerning tax proposals from both Kamala Harris and Donald Trump regarding the elimination of taxes on tips, and how Gov. Tim Walz's "mind your own business" rhetoric fails to address every issue. Listen to the full interview below! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Team Internet Group PLC (AIM:TIG, OTCQX:TIGXF) CEO Michael Riedl takes Proactive Stephen Gunnion through the company's first-half results. Riedl highlighted the continuation of growth in gross revenue, alongside an even faster increase in net revenue, leading to adjusted EBITDA reaching $46.6 million. Additionally, he emphasised the 13% rise in operating profit compared to the first half of 2023 and a 14% increase in adjusted EPS, resulting from a share buyback initiative. Riedl also discussed the factors contributing to this growth, particularly the strong performance of their German product comparison business and the retail domain business. He noted that the average price per domain name has risen to $11.90, driven by a favourable product mix and the strength of the retail segment. Furthermore, Riedl touched on the expected normalisation of cash conversion to around 100% for the full year, which was slightly impacted in the first half due to technicalities with payment timings. Finally, Riedl shared insights on the successful integration of Shinez, TONIC, and VGL into a synergistic platform, highlighting the reciprocal synergies these businesses are creating across different stages of the conversion funnel.

The Biden administration in January announced a pause in reviewing export permits for liquefied natural gas (LNG) in order to better understand the impacts that the United States' world-leading LNG exports will have on domestic natural gas prices, climate change, and environmental equity. Could the pause threaten the U.S.'s position as the world's top LNG supplier? Charlie Riedl, executive director of the Center for LNG, speaks to the the national security implications of the administration's pause – U.S. LNG was instrumental in Europe's pivot away from Russian gas in the wake of the Ukraine invasion – and says the regulatory action has prompted concerns among European allies and buyers regarding the reliability of the United States as an energy supplier. The economic and environmental impacts of LNG exports have been studied and restudied, says Riedl, who sees election-year politics prompting the announced review.  Given today's record-low prices for natural gas in the U.S. and the projected impact of the Environmental Protection Agency's recently finalized methane emissions-monitoring rules, the outcome of the new review should be a net positive for the industry, he suggests.Support the show

Impulse für eine gesunde Ernährung – mit Dr. Matthias Riedl Wenn das Jahr noch jung ist, spielen zwei Themen für viele Menschen eine riesige Rolle. Ernährung und Sport. Wir starten mit großen Ambitionen, die leider häufig nach und nach wieder im Alltagsstress verblassen und am Ende sind wir frustriert, weil wir wieder in unseren alten Muster landen. Es gibt unzählige Arten, sich zu ernähren. Vegan, vegetarisch, flexitarisch, Keto, Paleo, pescetarisch, nach Blutgruppe oder nach DNA.Vielleicht wäre „nach Gefühl“ nicht das verkehrteste, aber darüber philosophiere ich in den kommenden Stunde mit meinem Gast in dieser Woche. Er ist Ernährungsmediziner, einer der erfolgreichsten Podcaster des Landes, Entwickler der My Food Doctor App und nebenbei hat einen ganzen Haufen kluger Bücher über Ernährung geschrieben.

It is separate from the iconic Capitol building but is considered part of the Capitol complex. It is the oldest congressional office building on Capitol Hill. Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-MI), who falsely accused Israel of bombing a Gaza hospital Tuesday, addressed the protesters. Fox 5 in Washington, DC, reported: A large group of pro-Palestinian protesters are demonstrating inside the Cannon Rotunda on Capitol Hill. The Cannon House Office Building holds the House Committee offices. U.S. Capitol Police say demonstrations are not allowed inside Congressional Buildings and are working to clear the crowd. Police have already detained some individuals as chants of “ceasefire” are echoing around the building. Left-wing protesters have staged demonstrations inside the Capitol before, but none have been treated the way participants in the January 6, 2021 protesters have been treated, many of whom were detained and given harsh sentences for non-violent offenses. The U.S. has seen anti-Israel protests in major cities and on college campuses since a Hamas terror attack Oct. 7 killed 1,400 Israelis and wounded roughly 4,400 more. About 200 people — including some Americans — were taken to Gaza as hostages. FBI Director Christopher Wray called the Capitol riot “domestic terrorism.” In this case, the pro-Palestinian protest is supporting terrorism against Israelis and Americans; a ceasefire would allow Hamas to escape without consequences for its atrocities. https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/policy/education/israel-war-harvard-columbia-students-lose-job-offer-law-firm Harvard and Columbia students lose law firm job offer for anti-Israel stance A major law firm has rescinded its offer of employment to three students at Harvard and Columbia law schools who endorsed statements that blamed Israel for a series of terrorist attacks by Hamas. The law firm Davis Polk notified employees in an internal email that the firm had withdrawn job offers to three students from Harvard and Columbia who had signed statements that blamed the Israeli government for the attacks by Hamas. The Columbia statement went further and said the attacks were justified acts of resistance. The attacks and the subsequent military response by Israel have claimed the lives of more than 4,000 people. “These statements are simply contrary to our firm’s values and we thus concluded that rescinding these offers was appropriate in upholding our responsibility to provide a safe and inclusive work environment for all Davis Polk employees,” the firm said in the email to employees. The firm's action is the latest example of students losing employment offers because of their support for the statement. Ryna Workman, a law student at New York University and the president of the student bar association, lost an employment offer from the law firm Winston & Strawn after supporting a statement that said: “Israel bears full responsibility for this tremendous loss of life.” In addition to withdrawn job offers, other prominent figures have urged that the students be named publicly and face professional consequences. A number of the 31 student groups who signed the Harvard statement have since withdrawn their support for the statement. Billionaire Bill Ackman, a Harvard alum, asked that the names of the students who signed the statement be publicly released "so as to ensure that none of us inadvertently hire any of their members." Sweetgreen CEO Jonathan Neman echoed Ackman, saying, "I would like to know so I know never to hire these people." https://www.theblaze.com/news/sen-vances-new-bill-would-protect-mothers-who-exit-the-workforce-to-care-for-their-babies-from-undue-healthcare-costs Sen. Vance's new bill would protect mothers who exit the workforce to care for their babies from undue health care costs Republican Sens. J.D. Vance (Ohio) and Marco Rubio (Fla.) introduced legislation Tuesday that would ensure that mothers "who choose to prioritize their child's early development and recover rather than return to work" after giving birth won't be retroactively stripped of their health care premiums for having done so. Currently, the Family and Medical Leave Act of 1993 requires covered companies with over 50 employees to give their workers 12 weeks of unpaid medical leave in a 12-month period for the birth of a child as well as in cases of adoption. Furthermore, it requires the "continuation of their group health benefits under the same conditions as if they had not taken leave." The bill, entitled "Fairness for Stay-At-Home Parents Act," would amend the FMLA to "prohibit an employer from recovering any health care premium paid by the employer for an employee if the employee fails to return to work due to the birth of a child, and for other purposes." In addition to preventing clawbacks, the legislation would have employers continue their health premium contributions for the duration of the 12-week leave. "Our laws should not penalize new parents who choose to stay home to care for their newborn babies," Vance said in a statement. "We should celebrate and promote young families, not punish them. This legislation would relieve a serious financial burden for working families all over America and steer Washington in a more pro-family direction." America appears to be in dire need of a "pro-family direction." The U.S. Census Bureau revealed in November 2022 that less than 24% of children under the age of 15 living in normal families had a stay-at-home mother. Only 1% had a stay-at-home father. The Pew Research Center indicated that as of 2021, 26% of mothers stayed home with their children and 7% of fathers stayed home with their children. According to the Mayo Clinic, over half of women return to work after their maternity leave. Not only are fewer people staying home to raise their children, but fewer Americans are having children. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention indicated in a June report that the provisional number of births in the U.S. for 2022 was just over 3.6 million, a decline from the previous year. The fertility rate was 56.1 per 1,000 women ages 15-44. This figure is roughly half of what the rate was in the 1960s and more or less on par with the rate in 2020, which was the lowest rate on record. The New York Times noted in 2018 that one of the key drivers behind Americans having fewer or no children is financial insecurity. A poll conducted by USA Today last year confirmed that was still the case. About 46% of respondents suggested their personal financial situation influenced their planned or current childlessness; 40% indicated work-life balance was at least partly to blame. The Washington Examiner noted that financial struggles hit parents straight out the gate. The national average cost of child delivery in a hospital exceeds $18,000, or $3,000 out of pocket for those with insurance. The 12-week reprieve that some parents might find as a result of Vance's bill could go a long way. "The Fairness for Stay-At-Home Parents Act supports mothers' and parents' invaluable role in raising the next generation," said Rubio, the original co-sponsor of Vance's bill. "This legislation stops employers from imposing harsh financial penalties if a parent decides not to return to work after unpaid leave, and it empowers families to make choices that prioritize the well-being of their children." Rubio, like Vance, appears keen on bolstering the family. Following the Supreme Court's Dobbs ruling, Rubio released a pro-family framework, stressing the "need to adopt pro-life policies that support families, rather than destroy them." Among the proposals in the Florida senator's framework were an expansion to the child tax credit; an allowance for new parents to pull forward up to three months of their Social Security benefits to finance paid parental leave; tax relief for adoptive parents; expanded support for pro-life crisis pregnancy centers; and the establishment of a grant program funding integrated mentoring services for poor mothers. Following the overturning of Roe v. Wade, the Manhattan Institute's Brian Riedl prophesied to the Washington Post that Republicans would likely take a stronger lead on bolstering the family beyond just sparing the unborn from mass extermination. "I could see if Republicans decide that abortion politics are working against them, there could be a push for child-care benefits, more maternal health care, and better adoption services to make it easy and more affordable for more mothers to carry the babies to term," said Riedl. "It would put their money where their mouth is when challenged on making it easier for mothers to afford their children and get their health care." https://www.outkick.com/conor-mcgregor-no-charges-nba-finals-heat-sexual-assault-allegation/ CONOR MCGREGOR WON’T FACE CHARGES AFTER BEING ACCUSED OF SEXUAL ASSAULT DURING NBA FINALS Conor McGregor won’t face charges stemming from allegations he sexually assaulted a woman during the NBA Finals. McGregor was accused by a woman of sexually assaulting her in the bathroom of Kaseya Center during a Heat/Nuggets NBA Finals game, and the UFC star always maintained he didn’t do anything wrong. Prosecutors have now decided there is “insufficient evidence” to pursue the situation further, according to TMZ. Authorities also cited “contradicting and/or no corroborating witnesses” as another reason for why no charges will be brought. “In light of the above facts and circumstances, the State would not be able to satisfy its burden of proof beyond a reasonable doubt,” prosecutors wrote in a closeout memo, according to the same TMZ report. The woman initially claimed security separated her from her friends to get her in a bathroom with McGregor, but video of the situation told a very different story. She was filmed entering the bathroom with McGregor on her own freewill, and nobody was forcing her to go anywhere. TMZ also reported she was seen at a club with McGregor AFTER they left the bathroom together where she alleged she was assaulted. An attendant outside the bathroom told authorities they “did not hear any signs of distress or sounds that would corroborate that whatever was occurring was not consensual.” McGregor’s attorney told TMZ, “After a thorough investigation, including a review of videos and interviews with eyewitnesses, the authorities have concluded that there is no case to pursue against my client, Conor McGregor. On behalf of my client, his family and his fans we are pleased this is now over.” The situation is now behind McGregor, and that means he can focus on getting back in the octagon.

Gleich zwei Politiker sind wegen dubiosen Immobiliendeals in die Schlagzeilen gekommen. Einmal der ÖVP-Politiker und ehemalige Gemeindebundchef Alfred Riedl und dann der SPÖ-Bezirksvorsteher von Wien-Donaustadt Ernst Nevrivy. Beide haben von Grundstücksdeals profitiert und bei beiden stellt sich die Frage, ob sie wegen ihres Amtes bei Immobiliengeschäften Vorteile hatten. Was ist da also passiert in Grafenwörth und im Wiener Kleingartenverein? Sind die enormen Wertsteigerungen für Riedl und Nevrivy durch Umwidmungen schon Korruption? Und muss das Strafrecht verschärft werden? Das erklärt heute Christian Böhmer aus der Innenpolitikredaktion.Abonniert unseren Podcast auch auf Apple Podcasts, Spotify oder auf Youtube und hinterlasst uns eine Bewertung, wenn euch der Podcast gefällt.Mehr Podcasts gibt es auch unter kurier.at/podcasts Hosted on Acast.

It's a tale as old as time… where will our next trillion come from to feed our hungry coffers? We jest, but only a little: Negotiations on raising the debt limit are ongoing, marking, ahem, dozens of times this has happened under both Democrats and Republicans. Neither party has been able to summon the wherewithal to sacrifice political clout for the good of the long-term economy. Take healthcare spending: Democrats promote top-down, regulatory spending, while Republicans support consumer-based choice and competition. Fine – but costs haven't been fixed, efficiencies have not been produced, and Medicare has an $80 trillion shortfall over 30 years. Who do we think is going to bail us out? China and Japan hold a measly $2 trillion of our debt and they are selling it; the Fed holds just $5 trillion and they're trying to downshift. Are we really going to rely on American banks and savers and mutual funds to lend Washington $100 trillion over the next 30 years at low interest rates? It is not even a possible scenario. Our guest predicts that we are on a path that ends in a 15% value-added tax and a payroll tax rising close to 22% – yes, exactly like Europe. Brian Riedl is a senior fellow at the Manhattan Institute, focusing on budget, tax, and economic policy. Previously, he worked for six years as chief economist to Senator Rob Portman (R-OH) and as staff director of the Senate Finance Subcommittee on Fiscal Responsibility and Economic Growth.
