Preparation and the Lure of the Third Voyage. Guest Author: Hampton Sides. In 1776, a retired Captain James Cookwas living a comfortable life at Greenwich Hospital after two legendary voyages. However, a dinner with Lord Sandwich and the prospect of finding the Northwest Passage—and its £20,000 reward—convinced him to return to sea. Sides describes Cook's rise from poverty in Yorkshire, apprenticing under Quakers on "Whitby Cats," which were sturdy coal ships. This background instilled in him a sense of frugality and steadiness. Cook was a self-taught genius of hydrography, creating maps so accurate they rival modern satellite imagery. Despite his desire for retirement, his restlessness and the Admiralty's need for his unique mapmaking and leadership skills drove him to accept this final mission. 11781 DEATH OF COOK

Tahiti and the Challenges of Resettling Mai. Guest Author: Hampton Sides. The expedition arrived in Tahiti in August 1777, where the crew was eager for recreation. Cook's primary task was finding a home for Mai, who had returned from England with a hoard of treasures, including muskets and armor. Cook worried about Mai's status as a commoner and tried to arrange a marriage for him to protect his wealth, but Mai refused. Sides also highlights the importance of the "red feather" trade; Cook had discovered that these feathers were a royal currency in the islands, effectively allowing him to "change the economy" to secure supplies. Despite the idyllic setting, Cook's internal pressures and concerns for Mai's precarious future continued to mount. 41850

Rage on Moorea and Farewell to Mai. Guest Author: Hampton Sides. Tensions escalated on the island of Mooreaduring the "Goat Incident," where the theft of a pregnant nanny goat triggered a "scorched earth" campaign from Cook. He destroyed huts and canoes in a disproportionate rage that shocked his officers. Sides suggests this was a desperate attempt to protect Mai's future property by making an example of theft. After dropping Mai off at Huahine in a bittersweet farewell, the ships turned toward Alaska. Mai eventually died of disease a few years later, failing to reclaim his ancestral lands despite his English weapons. Cook, meanwhile, was increasingly seen by his men as a "darker" version of his former self as he pushed north. 51899 FIJI

Disney Springs transportation changes have the Disney community split, and Lauren and Eric dig into why this resort bus and water taxi policy is about more than just closing a parking hack. They look at how resort amenities, beignets, pools, and fireworks viewing have all become part of the broader “who gets access?” debate. Then they shift to Pixar, Toy Story 5, online movie rankings, and the surprisingly passionate arguments over WALL-E, Monsters Inc., Onward, Lightyear, and Cars 2. HIGHLIGHTS Disney Springs transportation restrictions begin June 28, limiting resort buses and water taxis to Disney Resort Hotel guests and guests with qualifying reservations. Lauren and Eric discuss why some fans see the change as a reasonable fix, while others see it as limiting access to the wider Walt Disney World bubble. The conversation expands to resort hopping, Port Orleans beignets, pool access, and how influencer-shared “hacks” can change guest behavior. Eric and Lauren consider whether these changes will actually reduce crowding or simply create new workarounds for determined guests. Toy Story 5 sparks a bigger conversation about Pixar rankings and which films fans defend the hardest. Lauren and Eric compare internet favorites like WALL-E, Ratatouille, Coco, The Incredibles, and Toy Story 2 with their own family's picks. Monsters Inc., Onward, Toy Story 4, Lightyear, Cars 2, and The Good Dinosaur all get pulled into the debate over Pixar's best and worst.

Everyone is covering the Alex Murdaugh retrial. Almost nobody is reading both sides the way a defense attorney does. Bob Motta has spent his career at the defense table and he sees patterns in what Harpootlian, Griffin, and Creighton Waters are doing that most commentators are missing.The defense is not just preparing for trial — they're running a parallel investigation through a federal lawsuit. They're publicly announcing strategies that defense attorneys almost never reveal in advance. They're hiring new experts and pushing DNA evidence that was collected from the murder victim and never checked against the national database.The prosecution is recalibrating a case that just lost the twelve-and-a-half-hour financial crimes narrative that made the first conviction feel inevitable. What's left is circumstantial — the kennel video, the lie, and no physical evidence tying Alex to the murders. The AG is floating the death penalty. Waters says the genie is out of the bottle. And somewhere in the middle is the question of whether Becky Hill was really the only person who got to that jury. Bob Motta covers all three lanes.

The Alex Murdaugh retrial is shaping up to be a completely different case than the one the first jury saw. The defense is openly signaling its strategy — a plan for the kennel video, new forensic experts challenging the timeline, unknown DNA evidence that was never checked, a federal lawsuit designed to find out whether Becky Hill acted alone. The prosecution just watched its most powerful narrative tool get stripped by the Supreme Court.Bob Motta is a criminal defense attorney who has been inside cases like this from the defense table. He understands what the signals mean, what both sides are really building, and where the pressure points are. This three-part conversation covers the defense strategy, the prosecution's narrowing options, and the federal lawsuit against Hill that could open doors the murder case never did.The death penalty is now on the table. Eight thousand pages of locked testimony give the defense a built-in weapon against every prosecution witness. And a circumstantial case with no physical evidence connecting Alex to the killings has to stand on its own without twelve hours of financial devastation propping it up. Bob Motta on who has the advantage.

The US Supreme Court just ruled in favor of a criminal defendant in a case that was rather interesting. It presented a simple question: Are prosecutors allowed to force you to sign away your right to appeal, and then slap you with a—potentially—unconstitutional punishment?Basically, can plea deals be formulated such that you get hit with an unconstitutional penalty, but then you also can't appeal that penalty?And the answer is: No. They cannot. Although, as always with these Supreme Court rulings, there is a lot of nuance, so let's go through the details together.

“If your opening position is: your views are beyond the pale, you are deplorable, there is no space for you in democracy — then how on earth do we expect anything other than revolutionary conservatism as a response?” — Maciej Kisilowski For Americans concerned about the fragility of their democracy, Poland offers some reassuring news. Having experienced its own illiberal blip, democracy in Poland now seems amongst the healthiest in Eastern Europe. So what does a democracy only created in 1989 teach America as the old republic braces for its surreal semiquincentennial celebration? The Vienna-based constitutional scholar Maciej Kisilowski is the author of Let's Agree on Poland: A Case Study in Strategic Constitutional Design. In this bestselling 2025 book, Kisilowski argues that Poland is a map of where other Western democracies could go. If they choose to. Poland elected its first illiberal conservative government in 2005. Hungary followed in 2010. Both explicitly served as models for Donald Trump — relatively tamed in his first term, unshackled in his second. Like the United States, Poland is a relatively rich country with per capita GDP growing an astonishing 650% in a single generation. So, Kisilowski argues, the conventional argument that Poland embraced illiberalism in response to economic hardship is mostly wrong. Instead, what triggered illiberalism in Poland was culture, particularly the compressed, accelerated challenge to traditional identity — national, male, religious — that EU accession triggered in Central Europe. Kisilowski, who teaches at Central European University, might have entitled his book Let's Agree to Disagree. Poland's solution to this cultural crisis of identity is what Kisilowski calls “subsidiarity” — genuine decentralisation that allows both conservative communities to remain traditional and liberal cities to become progressive, all within a common democratic framework. He warns both the left and the right that if you tell people their views are somehow foreign, it's entirely rational for them to want to smash their “foreign” democracy. This is the Polish model of a viable 21st century democracy. Ironically, it's a Madisonian warning about the dangers of faction. The “deplorable” gambit always backfires. Péter Magyar's remarkable victory in Hungary — a staunch conservative ending Orbán's 16-year mafia-style illiberal chapter — offers the Hungarian model of Kisilowski's argument. So this July 4, worried Americans might read Let's Agree on Poland. Or reread James Madison. Five Takeaways •       Central Europe as the Leading Indicator: Poland and Hungary Before Trump: Poland elected its first revolutionary conservative government in 2005 — sixteen years before the January 6 insurrection. Hungary followed in 2010. Both were explicitly cited as models by the architects of Trump's political project. Kisilowski's argument: what happened in Central Europe is not a regional anomaly but a leading indicator of what happens when open society's challenge to traditional identity is concentrated and rapid rather than gradual. The walls of liberal democratic institutions were weaker in Warsaw and Budapest. They will not hold indefinitely in Washington or London either. •       It's Not the Economy, Stupid: The Case Against Materialist Explanations: Poland and Hungary are economic opposites. Hungary was the “happiest barrack” of the Soviet bloc but fared poorly after 1989. Poland was among the poorer countries of the bloc and grew 650% in per capita GDP in one generation, with a Gini coefficient below France's. Same revolutionary conservative politics. Opposite economic trajectories. Kisilowski's conclusion: the materialist explanation — people turn right because of economic hardship — is flatly wrong. The driver is identity: the compressed, accelerated challenge to national, male, and religious identity imposed by EU accession conditionality in a decade. •       The Deplorable Problem: Why Exclusion Rationally Produces Authoritarianism: Kisilowski's most politically pointed argument: if your opening position to conservatives is that their views are beyond the pale, they are deplorable, there is no space for them in democracy — then it is entirely rational for them to break democracy. Not irrational. Not manipulated. Rational. If there is no space for me inside the system, I must break the system. That is what revolutionary conservatism is: a rational response to liberal exclusion. The solution is not to validate the views. The solution is to demonstrate that there is a place for those people and their communities within a democratic framework. That is the Madisonian insight. •       Subsidiarity as the Solution: Conservative Communities, Liberal Cities, Common Framework: Kisilowski's constitutional proposal, worked out with co-authors from the full ideological spectrum, is subsidiarity: genuine decentralization that allows conservative rural communities to be conservative and liberal cities to be liberal, within a common democratic framework. Budapest, in Magyar's Hungary, should get strong autonomy to pursue the more liberal policies its electorate wants. Warsaw and Kraków should be able to differ. The European Union is, in this reading, the model: different countries, different cultures, one framework. The alternative is winner-takes-all, which always produces a revolutionary reaction from the losers. •       Peter Magyar and Hungary: Proof of Concept for the Compromise Strategy: Magyar's extraordinary victory in Hungary — winning a constitutional majority against a 16-year right-wing regime rightly called a mafia state, in elections skewed heavily toward the government — is, in Kisilowski's reading, direct evidence that the compromise strategy works. Magyar is a staunch conservative and former member of the Orbán government. He won because he demonstrated to far-right voters that there was a place for them and their views within democratic Europe. The 2 million liberal Budapest voters who voted for him did so not because they like his conservatism but because he was unquestionably preferable to Orbán. Kisilowski made sure Magyar got the book. About the Guest Maciej Kisilowski is Associate Professor of Law and Strategy at Central European University (CEU) in Vienna.

Adam Montgomery's defense team asked for both charges — murder and assault — to be tried together. Then they tried to undo it. The trial judge said no. The New Hampshire Supreme Court said yes. And the Adam Montgomery murder conviction in the Harmony Montgomery case is now reversed.The ruling hinges on a concept the audience deserves to hear explained by someone who has actually litigated it: prejudicial joinder. When the overwhelming assault evidence — multiple witnesses, documented bruises, no dispute — sat alongside a murder charge that depended almost entirely on Kayla Montgomery's testimony, the court found the jury couldn't fairly evaluate the weaker case on its own merits.Criminal defense attorney Bob Motta (Defense Diaries) joins Tony Brueski to walk through the mechanics of how this conviction fell apart. The irony at the center: the defense's initial request created the structural flaw their appeal exploited. Whether that's strategy or accident, Bob's answer tells you everything about how the defense bar actually works.Also covered: whether the trial judge should have granted severance, what a unanimous five-justice reversal signals about how clear-cut this was, and the single most important thing people misunderstand about a murder conviction being overturned. Montgomery remains in prison on other charges. The state plans to retry. But the conviction that was supposed to speak for five-year-old Harmony is gone.

Benjamin L. Carp describes the fierce information war that followed the fire as both sides vied for public and international opinion. Figures like Benjamin Franklin and Robert Morris worked to protect the American reputation by insisting the fire was accidental. Conversely, the British used local newspapers to brand the rebels as arsonists and criminals. Curiously, formal correspondence between Generals Washington and Howe largely avoided the topic of the fire. This silence may reflect a "gentlemanly" code of the era, where neither commander wished to level such grave accusations without irrefutable proof, despite the ongoing propaganda battle. (6)1776

These situations are difficult precisely because they rarely involve a choice between something that is clearly right and something that is clearly wrong. More often, leaders find themselves choosing between two priorities that are both important, both defensible, and both worthy of attention. In these situations, not only must leaders determine where to allocate resources, but they must also manage the internal tensions that frequently emerge when different people, teams, or departments become closely aligned with one side of the trade-off or the other. Throughout my tenure as a CEO, I repeatedly encountered situations like these. This week, we explore seven specific examples of these leadership trade-offs, and why I believe they are among the most difficult decisions that leaders are asked to make.

After months of deadlock following the November 2025 elections, Iraq's parliament approved a new government under Prime Minister Ali al-Zaidi on May 14, 2026 — just as the country has become a battleground in the US-Israel-Iran war. Zaidi inherits a daunting brief: reviving a struggling economy, reining in armed factions, and steering Iraq through a perilous regional landscape. Dr. Renad Mansour, deputy director of the Middle East and North Africa Programme and director of the Iraq Initiative at Chatham House, joins host Alistair Taylor to discuss the war's impact on Iraq — from Iran's militia networks to the surge of attacks on the Kurdistan region — and how it's reshaping Baghdad's ties with Tehran and Washington.   Recorded on June 9, 2026.

A one-pot wonder shared with a chart-topping star. Marcus Mumford is an American-British singer, songwriter, musician and producer. He is best known as the lead singer of the award-winning English folk-rock band Mumford & Sons. Marcus took the train from his home in Devon to visit us for a chat about the band's latest album, Prizefighter, and their headline show at BST Hyde Park on 4 July.  But before that, we take a closer look at some of Marcus's favourite meals, including beef Wellington which, we find out, is a dish Angela is only going to master in exceptional circumstances. We hear about how Marcus and his wife, actor Carey Mulligan, have a small but mighty crop of fruit and veg at their Devon home, and how they like to entertain... at lunchtimes. We also get the recipe for Marcus's cauliflower salad that routinely impressed Taylor Swift, the origin story of his Oscar tattoos, and how he and the band have moved away from warm beer, chocolate and crisps in their dressing room. Angela cooks Ravinder Bhogal's Awadhi chicken pulao, served with naans, poppadoms and mango chutney.

Following Jesus makes you different. That difference most commonly and brilliantly shows up when life gets hard.This week, we will be studying 1 Peter 1:13-21 under the theme “Stop Playing Both Sides.” A holy God desires the whole of a person, not double agents who serve two masters. This text teaches focused, sober-minded commitment to the One who committed to us.Add St. Marcus as your church on the Church Center App!Fill out our online connection cardHow can we pray for you?

Brett and Jimmy check in from vacation to give their opinions on all the craziness going on in Paris at Roland Garros. If Sascha Zverev can't win his first major now then it might never happen. He is the dominant favorite to come out with the trophy but will old demons creep in at the worst time? Aryna Sabalenka once again failed to finish in a grand slam match where she was in total control. This has become a unfortunate trend for the world #1 the past two years. It's a crazy dichotomy where on one hand she is by far the most dominant player on the WTA tour, but also has a hard time taking advantage of her chances to add to her grand slam total. Flavio Cobolli faces off against fellow Italian Matteo Arnaldi in the top half semi making for a great opportunity for both players to make it further that they have ever been before. Can Mirra Andreeva conquer her Roland Garros demons from last year by coming out on top of the women's side?

The prosecution should fear Blanca Simpson because she knows things they never asked about — and three years of processing the case has given her clarity they might not be ready for. The defense should fear her because she spent twenty years watching Alex Murdaugh operate, and the version of events they're selling doesn't match the man she knew.Blanca Turrubiate-Simpson is not a neutral party and she's never pretended to be. She loved Maggie. She cared for Paul. She believes Alex killed them. She said it in her book and she's said it on camera. But she's also someone who respects the legal process enough to say publicly that the overturned conviction was the right decision — because Becky Hill's behavior behind closed doors was enough to compromise the trial, regardless of what the evidence showed.That combination — conviction about guilt paired with respect for the process — makes Blanca the most compelling witness in the retrial.This three-part exclusive covers the full scope of what Blanca carries. Part 1 is the emotional and personal impact of the overturned verdict — the drive to Maggie's grave, the competing truths, and the fear of going through it all again. Part 2 is the evidence — what she saw that morning that was never explored on the stand, what Alex's behavior revealed, and why her memory of Moselle matters more now that the property no longer exists. Part 3 is the hardest question: did Alex act alone? Blanca's theory about Plan A and Plan B, the defense team's competing narrative, and what she believes investigators still haven't examined.A three-part exclusive on the Alex Murdaugh channel.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?
