A Disneyland family walks into Walt Disney World thinking they've got the playbook, then Florida's scale, transportation, and next-level ride roster rewrites the plan. We're joined by McCayla, former PlanDisney panelist and seasoned Disneyland expert, fresh off a quick Disney World trip with her two kids who had never visited the Orlando parks before. What starts as a “thank you” celebration turns into a week of new favorites, big feelings, and a few moments where the Disney tiki room gods clearly laugh at the plan. We talk through the choices that made the trip work, starting with a split stay that includes Animal Kingdom Lodge and five nights at Disney's Beach Club Resort. McCayla shares why Beach Club's location near Epcot and that “mini water park” pool changed the family's pace, plus what it's like to adjust from Anaheim's walkability to Walt Disney World buses and travel time. We also get candid about Disney hospitality, the power of the Disney World bubble, and how dining experiences like Topolino's Terrace and Sanaa's bread service can feel closer to Disney Cruise Line service than you might expect. Then we get to the good stuff: first big park moments, the surprising kid reactions, and the ride rankings that shift in real time. Tron Lightcycle Run becomes the obsession, Cosmic Rewind delivers a story-worthy recovery when the first ride goes wrong, and Epcot quietly steals the “favorite park” crown. If you're a Disneyland regular planning your first Walt Disney World vacation, you'll leave with practical planning tips, honest tradeoffs, and a clearer sense of how to pick priorities without trying to do it all. If this helped you, subscribe, share it with a Disney friend, and leave a rating and review so more travelers can find the show.You can find more from McCayla on Substack and Instagram - check out https://linktr.ee/mc.and.mouse.club for links to everything.----Adventures & Mousecapades is a passion project from Alicea & Nathan Novak - two Seattleites addicted to The Mouse.

Some of the patterns running your life are not personality traits. They're old survival strategies wearing your clothes.   That reaction you keep having? That relationship cycle you keep repeating? That habit you swear you're done with until life presses the right bruise? Yeah. That might be your shadow talking. In this episode of Triggered AF Podcast, Alechia and Dani sit down with Dr. Sanaa Jaman for a powerful conversation about shadow work, breaking patterns, emotional healing, trauma, intuition, and reconnecting with the body. This conversation pulls shadow work out of the spooky corner of the internet and brings it back to where it belongs: the nervous system, the emotions we buried, and the parts of ourselves we learned to silence in order to survive. Because shadow work is not about becoming darker, it's about being honest. Dr. Sanaa breaks down how anger, grief, shame, guilt, jealousy, fear, and even manipulation can become disowned parts of us when we numb, avoid, or tuck them away for too long. But buried does not mean gone, those emotions still speak. They show up in our reactions, habits, relationships, and the quiet ways we disconnect from ourselves.   Alechia, Dani, and Dr. Sanaa also explore the difference between trauma and painful life experiences, why community can transform pain into initiation, and how intuition is not something you think your way into. It is something your body feels before your mind can explain it.   ✨ SPONSORED BY: Just Thrive Now Dinner Series | http://justthrivenow.com   Triggered Truths We Unpack in This Episode: Shadow work isn't bad or scary. It's the process of reconnecting with the parts of yourself you've suppressed, rejected, or avoided. Anger, grief, shame, guilt, jealousy & fear don't disappear when ignored. They show up in your habits, reactions, and relationships. Dissociation from the body disconnects us from intuition, emotional awareness, and our true needs. Emotions are tools filled with information designed to prepare us for life's inevitable storms. If you don't feel it, you can't heal it. Avoidance delays healing. It does not prevent pain. Trauma is not simply a bad experience. It is what happens when painful experiences are not witnessed, held, or supported. Community can transform pain into initiation, growth, and deeper self-understanding. Intuition is felt, not thought. Your body often knows before your mind can explain. Embodiment means learning to trust the signals your body has been sending all along.

L'émission 28 minutes du 30/03/2026 Les Houthis entrent en guerre contre Israël : l'engrenage continue au Moyen-Orient ? Samedi 28 mars, les Houthis ont revendiqué deux attaques de missiles et drones contre des “sites militaires sensibles” en Israël, marquant leur entrée officielle dans le conflit. Ce groupe chiite yéménite, souvent réduit à l'appellation de “rebelles”, contrôle environ 30 % du Yémen, dont la capitale Sanaa et le port stratégique d'Hodeïda, et exerce son autorité sur les deux tiers de la population. Pour Israël, engagé sur plusieurs fronts, l'ouverture d'un conflit avec les Houthis pourrait s'avérer problématique. Les Houthis menacent le commerce mondial : leur position près du détroit de Bab el-Mandeb, passage clé entre l'océan Indien et la Méditerranée, pourrait perturber le trafic maritime et les exportations de pétrole saoudien.

L'émission 28 minutes du 30/03/2026 Le cinéaste Gus Van Sant filme une Amérique au bord de la crise de nerfs En 1977 à Minneapolis, Tony Kiritsis prend en otage son créancier, Richard Hall, avec un fil de fer reliant la gâchette de son fusil au cou de l'otage. La prise d'otage dure 63 heures avant la libération de Hall. Gus Van Sant, cinéaste né à Louisville dans le Kentucky en 1952, s'empare de ce fait divers, une cinquantaine d'années plus tard, pour en faire un film de fiction. Fasciné par les destins, il s'est déjà plongé dans des récits sombres, à l'image d'"Elephant", inspiré de la fusillade de Columbine. Il revient avec “La corde au cou”, en salles dès le 15 avril. Gus Van Sant est notre invité. Les Houthis entrent en guerre contre Israël : l'engrenage continue au Moyen-Orient ?

Yemen's Iran-backed Houthi movement have launched a missile strike on Israel for first time since the war began.The group says it fired a barrage of ballistic missiles "targeting sensitive Israeli military sites", after Israel says it intercepted a missile from Yemen. The intervention comes as Israel continues bombing Lebanon, aiming for the pro-Iranian Hezbollah, but catching many other Lebanese in its wake.Also in the programme: We'll hear from a mother and son forced apart for years by the state because she was unmarried; Nepal's former prime minister under arrest just a day after the new government took power; and a former Haitian culture minister turned documentary maker on the prescience of George Orwell.(Photo shows a Houthi soldier operating a machine gun on a pickup truck in Sanaa, Yemen on 27 March 2026.

Send us a textEver notice how your feet slow down in Epcot or how an ugly wall disappears into the trees? We spent a chilly Florida week trading climbs for castles and pulled back the curtain on the design choices that steer your attention, shape your pace, and keep the story intact even when the weather doesn't cooperate. Between CityWalk wandering, Sanaa's legendary bread service, and a night queued up for DVC Moonlight Magic, we chased the little truths that make the magic feel effortless.We unpack why Cinderella Castle has zero bricks and still stands strong, how Main Street's flags quietly dodge the rulebook, and what those famous tunnels really do for the show. Pirates of the Caribbean spans multiple buildings with a hill that hides a train, the Tower of Terror wears Morocco's colors to protect Epcot's sightlines, and Go Away Green turns workaday structures into background noise. Epcot's early vision as a living city explains today's subtle engineering: uneven paths that slow you down, a sphere held aloft by legs, and a second gate that changes how the park breathes. Add in chemically aged water, purposely unlevel vehicles, and tree insurance backed by a soil lab, and you start to see how maintenance becomes part of storytelling.We also shout out Birmingham, the Magic City, in our listener spotlight and line up a new mystery city with clues tied to wings and a certain 70s news anchor vibe. On the home front, we're tuning the show's sound, remodeling the studio, and exploring an early-access subscription for anyone who wants their Leisure two days sooner.

https://thecommunists.org/2025/11/01/news/history/understanding-heroism-of-yemen-pt2/ Based on a presentation delivered at Saklatvala Hall in London in June 2025, this in-depth article attempts to tear through the imperialist lies and explain the real origins of Yemen's dominant national-liberation movement. From youth clubs to national government: the rise of Ansar Allah as the leader of Yemen's anti-imperialist forces. The anti-imperialist and national-liberation essence of the so-called ‘Houthi movement' is deliberately hidden from western audiences. But as the national government of Yemen in Sanaa has shown itself to be one of the most indomitable pillars of the middle-eastern Axis of Resistance during the Gaza genocide, workers all over the world are increasingly interested in finding out more about who and what the Ansar Allah movement really represents.

Dans cet épisode, je reçois Sanaa (aka Sananas) pour parler de la confiance en soi

Political power in Yemen is shifting once again, reigniting questions about who truly holds authority in the country and whether it is heading towards another fundamental rupture. The Southern Transitional Council (STC), which holds three seats in the eight-member Presidential Leadership Council (PLC), has long pushed for southern independence. In recent days, its forces have fought battles in Al Mahra and Hadramawt and now claim control over the entire south. STC leaders are also openly suggesting that Sanaa, the Houthi-controlled capital, could be the next target. But the PLC has warned that the STC's actions undermine security and stability at a time when the country remains deeply fractured. In this week's episode of Beyond the Headlines, host Nada AlTaher is joined by The National's Foreign Editor Mohamad Ali Harisi to examine the current power struggle in Yemen, what's driven these developments and where the country may be heading next.

Fragmentation in Yemen: The Southern Transitional Council Advances: Colleagues Bridget Tumi and Bill Roggio report that the civil war in Yemen is fracturing further as the Southern Transitional Council, which advocates for southern secession, advances into eastern governorates to secure territory and combat smuggling; this move has heightened tensions within the anti-Houthi coalition, as the STC is backed by the UAE while other government factions are supported by Saudi Arabia, weakening the collective effort against the Houthis who control thYEMEN800 e capital Sanaa and maintain ambitions to conquer the entire country. 1800 YEMEN

SHOW 12-8-2025 CBS EYE ON THE WORLD WITH JOHN BATCHELOR 1895 KHYBER PASS THE SHOW BEGINS IN THE DOUBTS ABOUT THE FEDERAL RESERVE  BOARD OF GOVERNORS. FIRST HOUR 9-915 The DC Shooter, the Zero Units, and the Tragedy of the Afghan Withdrawal: Colleagues Husain Haqqani and Bill Roggio discuss recent violence in Washington, D.C. involving an Afghan immigrant that has drawn attention back to the chaotic U.S. withdrawal from Afghanistan in 2021; the shooter, Ramanula Lakanal, was a member of the elite "Zero Units" of the Afghan National Army, a force that demanded priority evacuation for their families in exchange for providing security at the Kabul airport during the U.S. retreat, and while these units were stalwart allies against enemies like al-Qaeda and ISIS, they fought a "dirty war" and were accused of human rights violations, highlighting the broader failure of the withdrawal which occurred because political will faded across multiple administrations. 915-930 The Vetting Failure and the Lack of an Exit Strategy in Afghanistan: Colleagues Husain Haqqani and Bill Roggioexplain that the chaotic withdrawal from Afghanistan was exacerbated by the lack of a methodical exit strategy, unlike the British who organized their departure and evacuation lists well in advance; critics argue that the U.S. imported significant security risks by rushing the evacuation, bringing in over 100,000 Afghans without adequate vetting, and while there was a moral obligation to help those who served, experts suggest that wholesale importation of citizens from a war-torn country was not the only solution and that better vetting or resettlement in third countries should have been considered. 930-945 Martial Law in South Korea and the Shadow of the North: Colleagues Morse Tan and Gordon Chang discuss South Korea facing severe political turmoil following President Yoon's declaration of martial law, a move his supporters argue was a constitutional response to obstructionist anti-state forces; the opposition, led by figures previously sympathetic to North Korea, has been accused of attempting to paralyze the government, while accusations of "insurrection" against President Yoon are dismissed as nonsensical, with the political infighting fracturing the conservative party and leaving South Korea vulnerable to the North Korean regime in a way not seen since the Korean War. 945-1000 Japan Stands Up for Taiwan While Canada Demurs: Colleagues Charles Burton and Gordon Chang report that Japanese Prime Minister Takaichi recently declared that a Chinese invasion of Taiwan would be a "survival threatening situation" for Japan, authorizing the mobilization of self-defense forces; this statement has triggered a massive propaganda campaign from Beijing demanding a retraction, as a successful invasion of Taiwan would likely require violating Japanese sovereignty, while in contrast Canada remains reluctant to support Tokyo or criticize Beijing, hoping to secure trade benefits and diversify exports away from the U.S., leaving Japan isolated by its allies. SECOND HOUR 10-1015 The Survival of UNRWA and the Flow of Terror Finance: Colleagues Malcolm Hoenlein and Thaddeus McCotterreport that despite investigations revealing corruption and ties to terrorism, the UN has renewed the mandate for UNRWA for another three years; the organization's facilities have been used by Hamas and its schools have been implicated in radicalizing children, yet international efforts to replace it have stalled, while Hamas leadership refuses to disarm or accept international oversight, demanding a Palestinian state as a precondition for any change, with financial support for terror groups continuing to flow through networks in Europe and the Middle East. 1015-1030 Greece's "Achilles Shield" and Israel's Iron Beam Laser Defense: Colleagues Malcolm Hoenlein and Thaddeus McCotter report that Greece is undertaking a historic modernization of its armed forces, unveiling a new national defense strategy focused on long-range missiles and a modernized air defense system dubbed "Achilles Shield," allowing Greece to project power more flexibly in the Eastern Mediterranean and counter threats from Turkey; in Israel, a major defensive breakthrough is imminent with the deployment of the "Iron Beam," a laser defense system capable of intercepting threats at approximately $50 per shot, expected to rewrite the rules of air defense by effectively countering drone swarms and missiles. 1030-1045 Hezbollah's Quiet Regeneration Under Naim Qassem: Colleagues David Daoud and Bill Roggio report that since the ceasefire began, Hezbollah has received at least $2 billion from Iran and is actively rearming and regenerating its forces in Lebanon; the terror group is focusing on acquiring drone swarms and other asymmetrical weapons that are cheap to produce and difficult for Israel to counter, while Hezbollah's new leader Naim Qassem is leveraging his "bookish" and underestimated persona to lower the temperature and allow the group to rebuild without attracting the same level of scrutiny as his predecessor. 1045-1100 Fragmentation in Yemen: The Southern Transitional Council Advances: Colleagues Bridget Tumi and Bill Roggio report that the civil war in Yemen is fracturing further as the Southern Transitional Council, which advocates for southern secession, advances into eastern governorates to secure territory and combat smuggling; this move has heightened tensions within the anti-Houthi coalition, as the STC is backed by the UAE while other government factions are supported by Saudi Arabia, weakening the collective effort against the Houthis who control the capital Sanaa and maintain ambitions to conquer the entire country. THIRD HOUR 1100-1115 The Druze National Guard and Internal Strife in Southern Syria: Colleagues Ahmad Sharawi and Bill Roggio report that instability is growing in Syria's Druze-majority Suwayda province, where a newly formed "National Guard" militia has begun arresting and killing political opponents; the militia is spiritually guided by Sheikh Hikmat al-Hijri, who has consolidated power by sidelining other Druze leaders who were open to reconciliation with the Assad regime, with Turkey expressing support for the anti-Assad Druze factions against both the Syrian government and Kurdish forces, while recent violence suggests a hardening of anti-regime sentiment. 1115-1130 The "Variable Geometry" of the Muslim Brotherhood and Its Global Affiliates: Colleagues Edmund Fitton-Brown and Bill Roggio explain that the Muslim Brotherhood operates as a "mothership" for various Islamist movements, utilizing a strategy of "variable geometry" to adapt to local political environments while aiming for a global caliphate; Hamas functions as the Palestinian branch of the Brotherhood and despite being severely damaged by the war with Israel remains the dominant force in Gaza, with the Brotherhood finding state sponsorship primarily in Qatar, which provides funding and media support via Al Jazeera, and Turkey, where President Erdogan acts as a leader for the organization. 1130-1145 Ukraine Negotiations Hit a Cul-de-Sac Amidst Infiltration Tactics: Colleagues John Hardie and Bill Roggio report that peace talks regarding Ukraine are currently at a standstill, with the U.S. and Ukraine at odds over Russia's demands for territory in the Donbas versus Ukraine's need for meaningful security guarantees; while the U.S. has pressured Ukraine to concede territory, the security assurances offered are viewed skeptically by Kyiv, and Russia refuses to accept any Western military presence in Ukraine, while on the battlefield Russia employs infiltration tactics using small groups, sometimes single soldiers, to penetrate deep into Ukrainian positions. 1145-1200 The Trump Corollary: Reviving the Monroe Doctrine in Latin America: Colleague Ernesto Araújo discusses a new "Trump corollary" to the Monroe Doctrine reshaping U.S. policy in the Americas, signaling a more assertive stance against foreign influence and authoritarian regimes; this shift is evident in Venezuela, where President Maduro appears to be negotiating his exit in the face of U.S. pressure, while in Brazil the administration of Lula da Silva faces significant instability due to a massive banking scandal linking the government to money laundering and organized crime, with the new application of the Monroe Doctrine suggesting the U.S. will favor political figures aligned with its security strategy. FOURTH HOUR 12-1215 Devil's Advocates: Robert Stryk, Rudy Giuliani, and the Business of Influence: Colleague Kenneth P. Vogel discusses how in the power vacuum created by Donald Trump's arrival in Washington, unconventional lobbyists like Robert Stryk rose to prominence by marketing access to the new administration; Stryk, described as an "anti-hero" with a checkered business past, hosted a lavish event at the Hay-Adams Hotel to legitimize the regime of Joseph Kabila of the Democratic Republic of Congo, successfully delivering Rudy Giuliani as Trump's personal attorney, signaling a new informal channel for foreign diplomacy and highlighting how foreign regimes utilized large sums of money and unconventional intermediaries to seek favor. 1215-1230 The Accidental Diplomat: Robert Stryk and the New Zealand Connection: Colleague Kenneth P. Vogel explains that Robert Stryk's rise in the lobbying world was fueled by serendipity and bold bluffs, exemplified by a chance encounter with a New Zealand diplomat at a cafe; the diplomat revealed that New Zealand, having prepared for a Clinton victory, had no contacts within the incoming Trump team and could not arrange a congratulatory call between their Prime Minister and the President-elect, and Stryk, leveraging a connection to a former Trump campaign field director, provided a phone number that successfully connected the embassy to Trump's team, establishing his credibility and launching his career in high-stakes foreign lobbying. 1230-1245 Hunter Biden, Chinese Spies, and the Monetization of Political Connections: Colleague Kenneth P. Vogel reports that following his father's departure from the vice presidency, Hunter Biden faced financial pressure and sought lucrative foreign clients, leading to risky entanglements; one venture involved a corrupt Romanian real estate magnate who hired Hunter along with former FBI Director Louis Freeh and Rudy Giuliani to resolve his legal troubles, with the proposed solution involving selling land including the site of the U.S. Embassy in Romania to a Chinese state-linked fund, and Hunter Biden was aware of the nature of his associates, referring to one as the "spy chief of China." 1245-100 AM FARA: From Fighting Nazi Propaganda to Modern Transparency: Colleague Kenneth P. Vogel explains that the Foreign Agents Registration Act was originally enacted in 1938 to counter Nazi propaganda in the United States before World War II; at the time, the Third Reich was paying well-connected American consultants to whitewash Hitler's image and keep the U.S. out of the war, operating without public knowledge, and Congress passed FARA to create transparency, requiring those paid by foreign principals to influence the U.S. government or media to register their activities, with the law remaining today the primary vehicle for accountability in foreign lobbying

Houthi Attacks, Sanctions, and the Implications of a Gaza Ceasefire Guest: Bridget Toumey Bridget Toumey reports that the Houthis, who are well-organized and disciplined, attacked a Dutch ship in the Gulf of Aden and continued launching at least one missile and one drone at Israel, a slower pace than the nearly daily attacks seen in September. The Houthis also sanctioned 13 US oil and energy companies and their CEOs, citing the war in Gaza and US support for Israel. This announcement mirrored US sanctions and may be a precursor to resuming attacks against US-connected vessels. Israel's counter-Houthi air strikes have hit targets but have failed to deter the group, which also exploits connections with other terrorist organizations like al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula (AQAP). If the Gaza conflict ends, the Houthis might need a new casus belli to justify attacks, but they are willing to invent excuses if Iran wishes to continue stirring chaos. 1926 SANAA

In this episode of Archispeak, we trade fresh field notes from Cormac's latest midwestern architecture road trip and wrestle with the title theme: Misalignments of Rigor. Cormac stands in the rain in Toledo to watch a Gehry facade actually perform, peek at SANAA's elegant double-skin glass and its (imperfect) parapet detail, and then compare all of it to a new addition grafted onto a Louis Kahn building that seems to ignore his relentless order. Along the way, we unpack preservation vs. recreation, how committees and clients steer “of-our-time” interventions, and why tiny choices like material transitions, door proportions, and device locations (aka wall warts) make or break the whole. For students, emerging pros, and firm leaders alike, we turn on-the-ground observations into practical takeaways: where rigor matters, when to prototype, how to collaborate with manufacturers, and how to keep design intent aligned with construction reality so your next addition reads as deliberate, not accidental.-----Have a question for the hosts?

Israel has intensified its strikes in Yemen, targeting the Houthi leadership and plunging capital Sanaa into deadly chaos. The attacks have killed dozens, sparked a climate of fear, led to mass detentions - including of United Nations staff - and threatened critical humanitarian aid. So, how is the escalation being felt by Yemeni civilians?

Ralph welcomes Timothy Whitehouse, executive director of Public Employees for Environmental Responsibility (PEER) to speak about how federal workers across all government agencies are being unfairly denigrated and summarily fired by the Trump Administration to clear the way for corporate corruption. Plus, we are joined by Toby Heaps, Editor-in-Chief of “Corporate Knights” magazine to talk about the benefits of the cooperative business model over the corporate shareholder model.Timothy Whitehouse is executive director of Public Employees for Environmental Responsibility (PEER). Prior to joining PEER, he was a senior attorney at the Environmental Protection Agency and was head of the Law and Policy Program at the North American Commission for Environmental Cooperation in Montreal.The time to stigmatize federal workers is over. It's time to start rallying for unions for federal workers and what they do, and to support the idea that government plays an important role and that government (the civil service) must be as non-political as possible. Our country will be much better for it.Timothy WhitehouseThat's a good way to describe it: supersonic. We knew things were going to be really bad, but they are much worse than bad because there's no check and no balance on this President's madness. And some of the people and institutions we had hoped would stand up a little bit are collapsing one by one.Timothy WhitehouseOur foreign enemies could not have devised a better way to grind our system to a halt, and that's what's happening.Timothy WhitehouseToby Heaps is the CEO and co-founder of Corporate Knights, and Editor-in-Chief of Corporate Knights magazine. He spearheaded the first global ranking of the world's 100 most sustainable corporations in 2005, and in 2007 coined the term “clean capitalism.” Toby has been published in the Financial Times, Wall Street Journal, and the Globe and Mail, and is a regular guest speaker on CBC.I think in the co-op movement, the biggest bugaboo holding it back (in North America, that is) is people's perception that it's not a significant force. And it is already a significant force. In many cases, we're not familiar that the company might be a co-op (such as Associated Press or Ocean Spray) but in the United States alone, the turnover of co-op enterprises sales in 2023 was $324 billion US. And so, it's a significant part of the economy already.Toby HeapsI can't underline enough that if you care about a sustainable economy that works for people and planet, that the operating model is not just the clean economy (the environmentally friendly economy), it's the cooperatively-run economy.Toby HeapsThe principal obstacle to co-ops is the inadequate engagement of consumers to know about the huge benefits— to control the local economy from multinational corporations (absentee), who are pulling strings in ways that are very damaging, and basically to assume the purchasing power of the consumer.Ralph NaderNews 9/12/2025* Several major stories surrounding the Jeffrey Epstein case have emerged in the past week. First, Democrats on the House Oversight Committee have released a note written by President Trump to Epstein included in the latter's “birthday book” from 2003. In this note, Trump refers to Epstein as his “pal” and writes “May every day be another wonderful secret," according to Reuters. Trump has denied that this letter even existed, going so far as to sue the Wall Street Journal for defamation over their reporting in July. Trump continues to deny that he wrote the letter, though his signature is a perfect match, and he has sought to tamp down the matter, calling it a “dead issue,” per NBC.* In Congress, Republican allies of Donald Trump are seeking to quash the Epstein issue as well. On Tuesday, Republicans on the House Rules Committee “shot down a bid to put the Epstein Files Transparency Act—which would compel the Justice Department to release all unclassified records related to Jeffrey Epstein—to a floor vote,” in an 8–4 party-line vote, the New Republic reports. However, despite this setback, dissident Republican Thomas Massie continues to press the issue. Speaking about the birthday note, Massie said “It's…indicative of the things that might come out if we were to release all of the files…embarrassing, but not indictable. And I don't think avoiding embarrassment is a reason to avoid justice,” per CNN. Massie added in an interview on ABC that "I think it's going to be embarrassing to some of the billionaires, some of the donors who are politically connected to [Trump's] campaign. There are probably intelligence ties to our CIA and maybe to other foreign intelligence." Democrat Ro Khanna insisted in this same interview that he and his allies, including Massie, will be able to pull together a House majority of 218 members to force a vote on releasing the files.* Our final Epstein story for the week concerns James O'Keefe. Former leader of Project Veritas, O'Keefe continues to carry out far-right hidden-camera sting operations. In a rare move targeting conservatives, O'Keefe engineered a date between Joseph Schnitt, a deputy chief of staff at the Office of Enforcement Operations at DOJ, and an operative in his employ wherein Schnitt admitted that the Trump administration will “redact every Republican or conservative person in those files, [and] leave all the liberal, Democratic people.” In this video, Schnitt also implies that Epstein's lieutenant, Ghislaine Maxwell was relocated to a lower security prison to “keep her mouth shut,” as part of a deal with the government. This according to the Hill. One should certainly take revelations from O'Keefe with a heavy dose of salt, but these troubling comments should also raise suspicions about the government's possible plans to manipulate information related to this case for political ends.* Aside from the Epstein affair, the Trump administration continues to issue destructive policy directives in all directions. AP reports the federal Department of Transportation has scrapped a Biden-era rule that required airlines to “compensate stranded passengers with cash, lodging and meals for flight cancellations or changes caused by a carrier.” This rule, which sought “compensation starting at $200…[and] as high as $775…for delays of nine hours or more,” was consistent with European aviation consumer protections. Unsurprisingly, airlines – represented by lobbyists in the employ of the industry trade group Airlines for America – bitterly resisted the rule and celebrated the administration's abandonment of this basic consumer protection. The Biden Transportation Department had also been weighing rules that would have required airlines to provide, “free rebooking on the next available flight, including flights on rival airlines, as well as meals and lodging when passengers are stranded overnight.”* At the same time, the Trump administration's Federal Trade Commission is abandoning its rules banning noncompete clauses for employees. An eye-popping 1 in 5 workers are bound by noncompetes, approximately 30 million Americans, and experts estimated that banning such clauses could boost wages to the tune of nearly $300 billion per year and help create 8,500 new businesses, per NPR. The FTC voted 3-1 to vacate its defense of the rule, with Chair Andrew Ferguson and Melissa Holyoak, both Republicans, issuing a joint statement. Rebecca Kelly Slaughter, the lone remaining Democrat on the commission after Trump purged the FTC earlier this year, voted no.* Turning to foreign affairs, the Guardian reports two ships in the Gaza aid flotilla have been struck by drone attacks while docked in Tunisia. The first struck the Family Boat, which carries activist Greta Thunberg, though she was not on board at the time. The second struck the Alma, a ship bearing British flags while docked in the port of Sidi Bou Said. In a video, one can see, “a luminous object hitting the boat and fire erupting on board.” Francesca Albanese, the UN special rapporteur for the occupied Palestinian territories, is quoted saying, ‘‘Authoritative sources suggest the attack involved an incendiary grenade, wrapped in plastic materials soaked in fuel, which may have ignited before even hitting the vessel.” These attacks come amidst a renewed Israeli bombing campaign against its neighbors, including bombing the Qatari capital of Doha and the Yemeni capital Sanaa. Trump says he is “very unhappy” about the strikes; Israel's ambassador to the United States however says the world will “get over it.” This from Al Jazeera.* Meanwhile, Drop Site is out with yet another bombshell report, this time on Israel's propaganda push to cover up the scale of the hunger crisis in Gaza. According to this report, the Netanyahu government signed a previously unreported $45 million deal with Google to push false propaganda through the massive platform. One video, viewed more than 6 million times, asserts “There is food in Gaza. Any other claim is a lie.” Israel also reportedly paid $3 million for an ad campaign on X, formerly Twitter, and another $2 million on a French platform called Outbrain. This report also cites other examples of Israeli propaganda campaigns in recent years, including against UNRWA and regarding the illegal strikes in Iran.* In more positive news, the pro-Palestine campaign in Hollywood continues to grow. This week, Variety reports a group of over 3,900 filmmakers, actors and other industry professionals signed a new pledge to boycott working with “Israeli film institutions and companies that are ‘implicated in genocide and apartheid against the Palestinian people.'” This group includes many household names, such as Mark Ruffalo, Joaquin Phoenix, Jonathan Glazer, Tilda Swinton, Javier Bardem, Emma Stone, Boots Riley, Ayo Edebiri, and many, many more. The list continues to grow as this pledge circulates. According to the Hollywood Reporter, this campaign is led by Film Workers for Palestine, which explicitly modeled their strategy after Filmmakers United Against Apartheid. That group, founded by eminent filmmakers like Martin Scorsese, demanded that the film industry refuse distribution in apartheid South Africa.* Beyond Israel/Palestine, events are rocking Nepal, the small Himalayan nation that lies between India and China. The BBC reports “Fierce protests against corruption and nepotism spiralled into arson and violence on Tuesday. The prime minister resigned as politicians' homes were vandalised, government buildings torched and parliament set ablaze. Twenty-nine people have died since Monday.” The "Gen Z" youth groups leading the protests have distanced themselves from these acts of destruction, claiming their movement was "hijacked" by "opportunists". Nepal's military has been deployed in the capital of Kathmandu in an attempt to restore order and enforce a curfew. The government of Nepal, led by now-ousted Prime Minister K.P. Sharma Oli, sought to cultivate a closer relationship with China to offset Nepal's historical dependence on India. For the time being, China seems to be taking a wait and see approach to the situation in Nepal, with foreign ministry spokesman Lin Jian calling for all parties to “properly handle domestic issues and restore social order and national stability as soon as possible,” per the South China Morning Post.* Finally, Democracy Now! reports that in an apparent fit of retaliation, the Trump administration is now threatening to redeport Kilmar Abrego Garcia, the American green card holder recently returned from his wrongful deportation to El Salvador's CECOT mega-prison. This time, instead of sending him to El Salvador, the government plans to send Garcia to the tiny African kingdom of Eswatini, formerly Swaziland. Garcia had previously expressed fear of being deported to Uganda. This move would surely be punitive, capricious and just plain bizarre, but that is hardly a deviation from the course of the Trump administration. We express solidarity with Garcia, who stands practically alone against the juggernaut of the United States' deportation apparatus.This has been Francesco DeSantis, with In Case You Haven't Heard.

Welcome to What Matters Now, a weekly podcast exploring key issues currently shaping Israel and the Jewish World, with host deputy editor Amanda Borschel-Dan speaking with senior analyst Haviv Rettig Gur. There are still lots of questions and not a lot of answers after a bold Israeli airstrike targeted a meeting of Hamas’s top leaders in Qatar’s capital, Doha, on Tuesday. According to some reports, the leadership had gathered to discuss a new US-sponsored hostage-ceasefire proposal aimed at ending the war in Gaza. At publication, reports still differ as to whether the attack was successful. And just before recording on Wednesday, the IDF confirmed it had carried out strikes against the Houthis in Yemen, saying it struck military camps where operatives were gathered, the headquarters of the terror group’s propaganda division, and a fuel depot, in both Sanaa and in the al-Jawf area north of the capital. Borschel-Dan asks Rettig Gur: Is Israel acting like an unpredictable "Middle Easterner" to restore deterrence on all fronts? In a quick-take conversation, we hear why Rettig Gur doesn't put much weight into diplomatic theatrics as Israel fights its existential war against the Hamas terror group that launched the war on October 7, 2023. We ask: What does it mean to fail in a daring op? Has Israel burned all of its allies' goodwill? And so this week, we ask Haviv Rettig Gur, what matters now?What Matters Now podcasts are available for download on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube or wherever you get your podcasts.

主播｜李叔 嘉宾｜Yui前不久，李叔去了一趟濑户内海为日谈旅行团探路，一路感受着与海岛共生的建筑美学，也对作品背后的设计师产生了好奇。本期节目邀请来了日本千叶大学环境造园学博士后、现居日本从事寺庙景观研究工作的Yui，以安藤忠雄、平田晃久、西泽立卫、隈研吾、枡野俊明等多位日本建筑师为线索，用地域风土作为钥匙，解开他们的设计密码。不只聊建筑，更聊聊建筑背后的人、土地、记忆与归属。安藤忠雄，以清水混凝土创造出极具辨识度的“安藤风”。出生于大阪的他，从拳击手自学转型为建筑师，带着关西人的开放精神，用朴实的材质塑造自由的空间。早期作品「住吉的长屋」延续了他童年的记忆，保留着与自然相处的“不便”，对舒适化的现代生活提出温柔反抗；「本福寺水御堂」大胆挑战传统寺庙建筑，却用沉入莲池的设计回归佛教原点；他所倡导的“青苹果精神”，一种无论年龄仍保持心灵青春的理想主义，更是贯穿了他的人生态度。同样来自关西的新生代建筑师平田晃久，则将建筑视作一棵生长中的大树。他的作品，如群马县的太田市美术馆·图书馆，充满着野生的生命力和社区亲和力。他试图模糊建筑与城市的界限，重现街巷中人群自然相遇、喧闹聊天的市井氛围，让建筑成为人与人连接的活性媒介。不同于前两位「关西派」，出生于关东横滨的西泽立卫相对理性、内敛。他的建筑常以曲线和玻璃为语言，在看似开放流动的场所中，巧妙地经营着一种关东式的边界感与仪式感，让人在其中获得深沉的安宁与安全感。“建筑界卷王”隈研吾关东横滨出生，在日本泡沫经济破裂时期，摒弃冷峻的纪念碑式建筑，转向木、竹、石、纸等自然材质。他提出“负建筑”的理念，不用风格宣告存在，而是让建筑消隐于环境，使人感受到自然与场所的呼吸。相似的出生地点，相异的出身背景，庭院设计师枡野俊明则进行着一种超越建筑的思考。作为禅僧，他将造园视为修行，以沙代水，以石作山，用极简的元素呈现对宇宙、生命与自我的深邃观照。每一位建筑师的灵感，不是凭空出现，而是从脚下的土地生长出来。童年的记忆、熟悉的风土、人生的经验、文化的归属，均化作无形的脉络，贯穿于作品之中。建筑因此不只是空间的形态，更是一种存在方式，始终指向创作者的精神原点。而我们每个人也在不断寻找、回应着属于自己的原点......这个十月，与Yui 、李叔和小伙子同行，踏上日谈看世界「濑户内海 · 海与岛的文艺巡游」，在艺术与海相遇的岛屿之间，继续这场未尽的探索。Yui个人播客：Yui的日日是好日｜Songlist｜世武裕子 - 『日日是好日』 メインテーマ世武裕子 - 『日日是好日』アナザーエンディング｜日谈看世界新团旅行团招募中｜「濑户内海 · 海与岛的文艺巡游」2025年10月18日-23日（6天5晚），日谈看世界与中青旅耀悦旗下文化旅行与传播品牌「悦物派」联合发起「濑户内海 · 海与岛的文艺巡游」。跟着本地玩家，亲临三年一度的世界级艺术盛会「濑户内海艺术祭」！从直岛、丰岛到淡路岛与四国岛，漫步于海边美术馆、传统园林与温泉小镇间，感受艺术与自然的交织。还有重磅惊喜！时隔7年，日谈公园两大主播李叔和小伙子将以「钢门组合」再度合体前往日本，随团和大家一起游玩，共同解锁诸多小众秘境，共赴一场“以海为名”的艺术之旅，欢迎加入！了解更多行程详情，请戳日谈看世界 · 濑户内海「海与岛的文艺巡游」正式开售！收听每日安排，请跳转新团招募·濑户内海｜不止艺术祭，共赴一场海与岛之间的疗愈之旅识别海报二维码，进入报名通道�/ 嘉宾介绍 /毛滢铭（Yui）日本千叶大学环境造园学博士研究员，从事日本乡村景观、寺庙环境与环境心理研究，采访100座日本寺院企划进行中。艺术设计背景，活跃于中日文化交流、旅修策划与翻译领域，主理过伊豆、秩父、京都等地疗愈旅修，用心深度链接日本寺院、乡村自然风土、匠人文化。/ 节目相关图片 /安藤忠雄（Tadao Ando）1941年出生于大阪，1995年普利兹克奖得主，东京大学名誉教授。以混凝土结构、光与影的运用、以及建筑与自然/景观的融合闻名于世。曾当过职业拳击手，其后在没有经过正统训练下成为专业的建筑师。1969年创立安藤忠雄建筑研究所。代表作包括「淡路梦舞台」、「光之教堂」、「地中美术馆」等项目。安藤忠雄「住吉的长屋」安藤忠雄「地中美术馆」安藤忠雄「本福寺水御堂」安藤忠雄「儿童之森 青苹果」平田晃久（Akihisa Hirata）1971年出生于大阪，在京都大学完成建筑学（学士与硕士）教育后，于1997年进入伊东丰雄建筑事务所工作。2005年创立自己的建筑设计事务所，从事住宅、公共空间及装置设计等多个类型的作品。平田晃久强调空间中人、自然、内外界面的模糊与流动，他提出“纏绕建筑哲学”（或称空间的多重层次／曖昧性）来打破传统的“内与外”、“人对自然”的二元对立。平田晃久「太田市美术馆·图书馆」西泽立卫（Ryue Nishizawa）1966年出生于横滨，目前任教于横滨国立大学。1995年，与妹岛和世共同创立建筑事务所 SANAA。2010年，他与妹岛和世共同获得普利兹克奖。西泽立卫的作品常展现轻盈感、透明性与环境互动性强的空间设计，结构精致且注重材料与自然光的运用。西泽立卫/内藤礼「丰岛美术馆」西泽立卫/妹岛和世「21世纪美术馆」隈研吾（Kengo Kuma）1954年生于横滨，以“负建筑”（architecture of negatives 或“消失的建筑”）理论为人熟知，即让建筑“隐退”于环境，让自然、光线、空气成为设计的重要元素。1990年，在东京青山创立了隈研吾建筑师事务所，作品遍布日本及世界多个国家。代表作品包括「浅草文化观光中心」、「根津美术馆」、「2020东京奥运会主场馆·国立竞技场」等项目。隈研吾「太宰府天满宫 星巴克」隈研吾「北京三里屯SOHO」枡野俊明（Shunmyō Masuno）1953年生于横滨，是日本曹洞宗僧侣，同时是一位著名的庭园设计师，担任德雄山建功寺的住持，多摩美术大学名誉教授。枡野俊明的庭园设计深植禅宗思想与日本传统文化，强调“禅的庭”（zen garden）的意境与精神体验；其作品常以简练的形式、静谧的气氛，引导观者心灵的宁静与反思，被视为将禅与现代设计结合的代表人物。枡野俊明「杭州 天目里 中庭设计」枡野俊明「河北 空院庭」枡野俊明「闲坐庭 东急酒店lounge」/ 节目中提到的作品 /电影《日日是好日》（2018）导演：大森立嗣【收听平台】小宇宙｜喜马拉雅｜苹果播客｜网易云音乐｜荔枝｜蜻蜓FM｜QQ音乐｜酷我音乐｜酷狗音乐｜懒人听书｜微博音频｜三联中读｜听听FM｜猫耳FM｜Spotify｜YouTube｜关注我们｜移步点击日谈公园品牌官网（链接：https://www.ritanbbpark.com），了解更多微信公众号：日谈公园微博：@日谈公园小红书：日谈公园即刻：日谈李小日B站：日谈公园｜商务合作｜欢迎发送邮件至 bbpark@ritanbbpark.com
