Podcasts about Stability

Host Todd introduces his new book, The Stability Trap, and shares a sneak peek episode created with an AI-generated interview. The episode explores why organizations that appear safe can still experience accidents and how success itself can erode safety capacity. The discussion outlines the core ideas: safety as the presence of capacity, the three R's (redefine safety, reframe the worker, relearn investigation), and a five-stage practical blueprint for leaders, safety professionals, frontline workers, supervisors, and system integration. Short and practical, the episode is a teaser for the book and invites listeners to reflect on whether their organizations maintain the resilience, confidence, and systems needed to recover when things go wrong.

Welcome to The Daily, where we study the Bible verse by verse, chapter by chapter, every day. Today's shout-out goes to Daniel Crofoot from Cape Coral, FL. Your commitment through Project23 helps deliver God's Word daily with clarity and conviction. This one's for you. Our text today is Judges 12:13-15 After him Abdon the son of Hillel the Pirathonite judged Israel. He had forty sons and thirty grandsons, who rode on seventy donkeys, and he judged Israel eight years. Then Abdon the son of Hillel the Pirathonite died and was buried at Pirathon in the land of Ephraim, in the hill country of the Amalekites. — Judges 12:13-15 Abdon's leadership doesn't come with stories of war or dramatic miracles. Instead, Scripture records his family line and their prosperity—sons and grandsons riding seventy donkeys, a cultural sign of peace, wealth, and influence. For eight years, Israel experienced stability under his leadership. It may not read like an epic story, but in a book filled with chaos and conflict, Abdon's peaceful legacy shines as a rare blessing. We live in a restless world. We celebrate fame, power, and controversy more than faithfulness, humility, and stability. However, Abdon reminds us that a quiet life of faith can have a ripple effect that lasts for generations. His legacy wasn't built in the spotlight—it was built at home, among his family, and in the stability he provided his community. That's the kind of legacy we need today. Fathers who create safe homes. Leaders who model integrity. Believers who commit to their church and community with steady devotion. The impact of such faithfulness outlasts the drama of the moment—it builds generations of blessing. Don't chase the momentary spotlight. Build the kind of faithfulness that outlives you. Stability is a gift to your family and your community—and it's the kind of legacy God loves to multiply. ASK THIS: What kind of legacy am I building for my family and community? Do I value stability and faithfulness as much as God does? How can I invest in people, not just accomplishments, today? DO THIS: Take one step today to invest in stability—pray with your family, encourage someone younger in the faith, or strengthen your commitment to your local church. Faithful seeds planted now will bear fruit for generations. PRAY THIS: Father, help me build a legacy of faithfulness. Use my life not for fleeting applause, but to bring peace, stability, and blessing that ripple into the lives of others long after I'm gone. Amen. PLAY THIS: "Faithful Then / Faithful Now."

The South African Medical Technology Industry Association - SAMED - has raised alarm over the Gauteng Department of Health's failure to pay medical technology suppliers, a crisis it says now threatens business survival, jobs, and the stability of healthcare delivery across the province. SAMED says several companies that supply essential medical products and services are on the brink of closure, with job losses imminent. SAMED is now calling for national government intervention to resolve the issue. Bongiwe Zwane spoke to SAMED board member and Chairperson of the Market Sustainability Committee, Monica Lucas

SHOW 11-13-25 CBS EYE ON THE WORLD WITH JOHN BATCHELOR THE SHOW BEGINS IN THE DOUBTS ABOUT BUNDESTAG COHESION AND  STABILITY. FIRST HOUR 9-915 1/2 Anatol Lieven discusses the war in Ukraine, noting the new Russian unit RubiKon hunting drone operators and the slow Russian advance on Pakovsk, aided by both innovation and old factors like fog. The conversation also covers Germany's military rearmament plans and the significant, rising influence of the populist right AFD party in German politics, which is strongly anti-immigrant and largely anti-rearmament. Guest: Anatol Lieven. 1/2 915-930 2/2 Anatol Lieven details UK Prime Minister Starmer's genuine political troubles concerning domestic policy drift and significant potential losses in upcoming regional elections. Starmer maintains prestige supporting Ukraine, though funding remains a question. A back channel to Moscow has been opened by Jonathan Powell to discuss peace, dropping the prior insistence on a ceasefire, indicating a shift in London. Guest: Anatol Lieven. 2/2 930-945 Chris Riegel, CEO of SCALA.com, states that Chinese claims of matching Nvidia's high-end chip success are largely propaganda, though China mandates domestic chip use. The US holds the AI "pole position." AI is a genuine profit driver, worth trillions to GDP, with material workforce impact expected by 2026. Guest: Chris Riegel 945-1000 Mary Anastasia O'grady reports on the assassination of Mayor Carlos Monzo in Michoacán, killed after leaving President Sheinbaum's Morena party and aggressively confronting cartels and their agricultural extortion. Sheinbaum has cooperated smartly with the US, allowing surveillance flights, and hired credible security chief García Haruch. The main challenge is whether Sheinbaum has the political will to confront the cartels, especially given the widespread belief in Morena's complicity. Guest: Mary Anastasia O'Grady. SECOND HOUR 10-1015 Cliff May discusses severe Christian persecution in Nigeria, which President Tinubu claims guarantees religious liberty. Attacks are carried out by Boko Haram, ISWAP, and powerful Fulani militias. May suggests jihadism acts as theological justification for Fulani nomadic herders to seize land from Christian farmers. The US could provide assistance, training, and advice to the Nigerian military to protect communities. Guest: Cliff May. 1015-1030 Sadanand Dhume examines the shift in US foreign policy, where President Trump now favors Pakistan and its military chief, General Munir. This followed intense combat between India and Pakistan after a horrific terrorist attack. When the US mediated a ceasefire, Trump took credit, which embarrassed Indian Prime Minister Modi. Pakistan cleverly thanked Trump and nominated him for a Nobel Peace Prize, securing his favor over India. India now needs a trade deal. Guest: Sadanand Dhume. 1030-1045 Professor Matthew Graham discusses the most powerful black hole flare ever recorded, which shone like 10 trillion suns from an Active Galactic Nucleus (AGN). Material falling into the supermassive black hole forms an accretion disc, releasing intense radiation. This 10-billion-year-old event was detected using computer cameras. Graham explains that these black holes are ancient "seeds" of galaxies, acting as cosmic vacuum cleaners, such as when a large star gets shredded. Guest: Professor Matthew Graham. 1/2 1045-1100 Professor Matthew Graham details his needs for future black hole research, prioritizing a network of space telescopes with large fields of view, like the Roman space telescope, for perpetual, multi-wavelength monitoring of the sky. This "audit of the cosmos" will improve detection speed and timing. Graham encourages students to pursue black hole work, noting it is a vibrant growth area, viewing black holes as the enduring future product of the universe. Guest: Professor Matthew Graham.2/2 THIRD HOUR 1100-1115 Veronique de Rugy discusses the cost of living, critiquing the administration's claims that Thanksgiving dinner is cheaper, citing the use of shrinkflation and item removal. She criticizes the proposal to send $2,000 checks, noting this Keynesian approach boosts demand, which, without increased supply, risks raising prices further. De Rugy advocates for deregulation and the elimination of tariffs (which she confirms are a tax) as the necessary supply-side solution to the affordability crisis. Guest: Veronique de Rugy. 1115-1130 Conrad Black assesses Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney's new budget as anti-climactic, failing to deliver promised growth or definitive decisions on controversial policies like pipelines. However, the budget was sensible and conciliatory, avoiding conflict with the opposition, Washington, and Alberta. Carney, adopting a diplomatic style akin to a central banker, did offer serious encouragements to alleviate the housing shortage. Guest: Conrad Black. 1130-1145 Scott Winship analyzes 50 years of US median earnings, preferring the MACPI to accurately adjust for cost of living. He finds that the middle class is better off: women's earnings are up 120%, and men's are up 40–50%. Winship disputes populist theories that income inequality or the China shock are the main villains, noting that the worst period for young men was 1973–1989, predating those factors. Guest: Scott Winship.1/2 1145-1200 Scott Winship investigates the mystery of the decline in young men's earnings between 1973 and 1989. He concludes this period was not caused by accelerated immigration or women entering the workforce, as men's earnings continued to rise. The actual explanation is the unique economic combination of stagflation—high unemployment and very high inflation—that occurred until the early 1980s recession. This severe economic dynamic has not been matched since 1989. Guest: Scott Winship. FOURTH HOUR 12-1215 The arrival of the US carrier Gerald Ford signals an escalating commitment to possible military solutions against Maduro's regime in Venezuela. Maduro has ordered a Cuban-style guerrilla defense, but analysts worry more about "anarchization"—wreaking havoc—if he falls. Removing Maduro and lifting sanctions could lead to necessary refinancing of Venezuela's $170 billion debt. Guest: Evan Ellis. 1/4 1215-1230 Peru faces severe political instability, evidenced by six presidents in two years and detentions for corruption. Transitional leader José Heresi is tackling rising organized crime, including a 36% jump in homicides, through a state of emergency. Meanwhile, China maintains deep-seated influence, controlling key sectors like mining, oil, and the deep-water port of Chancay. Guest: Evan Ellis.2/4 1230-1245 Honduras is holding a high-stakes, single-round election where the outcome could determine if the country returns to alignment with Taiwan or shifts to China. Election observers noted improper pressure and concerns about meddling by the ruling Libre Party. Separately, Argentina's economy under Milei is strengthening, backed by a significant US currency swap and political support. Guest: Evan Ellis. 3/4 1245-100 AM COP 30 is largely "political theater" with commitments insufficient to address climate change. Estimates suggest the crucial 1.5-degree global temperature increase will be reached by 2030. While there is increased international attention, funding remains inadequate; Brazil secured only $5.5 billion toward its $125 billion forest preservation goal. The plight of Amazonian indigenous peoples continues unaddressed. Guest: Evan Ellis.4/4 |

Today we explain why a stiff, painful lower back doesn't need more stretching (knee-hugs, Child's Pose, cat-cow). Most disc problems bulge backwards, so repeated forward-bending keeps stressing the very tissues that need protection. We show what to do instead: learn neutral-spine control, practise real-life patterns (squat = stand up, hinge = pick up), and then build capacity. We also cover why imaging can be useful (for the clinician and planning), how years of sitting flatten your lumbar curve, spinal remodeling basics, post-op realities (microdiscectomy still needs rehab), coccyx pain referrals, IDD + rehab, cardio choices, and more Q&A.Start here → https://backinshapeprogram.com/start/Highlights:- Stiff ≠ “needs more flexion.” Most lumbar injuries dislike forward-bending; stabilise first, then strengthen.- Why imaging sometimes helps: it informs technique and targets—not a reason to delay starting safe rehab.- Your curve is often already flattened from long sitting; stop trying to add even more flexion.- Coccyx pain is commonly referred from L5/S1; fix the spine, not the seat cushion gimmicks.- Relief vs rehab: decompression/massage can soothe, but strength changes capacity (and daily life load wins).#backinshape #sciatica #herniateddiscsChapters:00:00:00 Why “stretch your stiff back” backfires (disc bulges & flexion strain)00:02:10 Stability over stretching: protect the injury, don't keep bending it00:05:00 When imaging helps (and why it shouldn't delay starting safe rehab)00:07:40 Normal curves 101 (lordosis/kyphosis) and where lumbar motion should occur00:11:30 The sitting problem: years of posterior tilt flatten the lumbar curve00:15:20 Spinal remodeling idea (sustained extension positioning; context & limits)00:18:50 Already flexed at rest?

Discussion of al-Sharaa's White House Visit, Syrian Sanctions, and Domestic Stability Issues. Ahmad Sharawi discusses how al-Sharaa (formerly al-Jolani), the self-named president of Syria and former al-Qaeda leader, visited the White House seeking the repeal of Caesar sanctions. The administration hopes he can stabilize Syria, ignoring his history of massacres against minorities like the Alawites and Druze. Critics argue he must address internal stability and remove foreign fighters first, as he is being rewarded for actions already serving his self-interest, such as fighting ISIS and limiting Iran's influence.

Greg Friedman sees a "slow grind back" in commercial real estate, not a "snapback" like post-Great Financial Crisis. He discusses the impact of an elevated 10-year yield, but notes a predictable Fed and stable environment will help drive overall stability in commercial real estate.

US-China Ceasefire and Competition in Technology and Space. Jack Burnham (Foundation for Defense of Democracies research analyst) characterizes the Trump-Xi meeting as a necessary "truce" that allows both nations to gain stability and strengthen their positions before the next escalation. Regarding rare earths, China is now employing the US "playbook," setting up a licensing structure rather than a full trade cessation. He emphasizes that building a complete rare earth supply chain outside of China, especially refining capacity, may realistically take seven to ten years. In technology, Beijing is pushing for domestic self-sufficiency in AI infrastructure, partly driven by paranoia that imported chips may contain backdoors or vulnerabilities. Burnham also details China's commitment to militarizing space, including copying US reconnaissance capabilities and practicing anti-satellite operations like "dogfighting." 1914

In this episode of The Neurodivergent Experience, Jordan James and Simon Scott dive into the complicated relationship between money and neurodivergent brains— from impulsive spending and overdrafts to financial fear and learning to save later in life.They share their own journey with overdrafts, dopamine-driven purchases, budgeting avoidance, and learning financial responsibility later in life — and how neurodivergent brains approach money differently from neurotypical ones. Together, they discuss:How autism and ADHD affect spending, saving, and financial regulationThe truth about the “ADHD tax” and impulsive spending for dopamineHow demand avoidance and executive dysfunction make bills feel impossibleWhy financial shame is common for neurodivergent adultsHow to build sustainable savings systems that actually work for autistic and ADHD mindsLearning to plan, budget, and build security without losing joyThe emotional link between money, control, and safetyThis is a real, unfiltered conversation about growing up, getting organised, and finally learning how to make money work for you instead of against you. Whether you're deep in overdraft or learning to save for the first time, this episode offers empathy, laughter, and practical insight into financial life with a neurodivergent brain.Our Sponsors:

On today's show Andrew and Bill break down the latest deal between the US and China, beginning with details from the White House over the weekend, why the PRC is likely happy with a tactical retreat and the new status quo, and why stability is likely at least through April. From there: Why the PRC was motivated to deal despite its goals of eliminating tariffs and export controls, clarity about American pain points, questions about Congress and what comes next, and the costs of China's strategy for the past month. At the end: Reporting on a doomed push from Nvidia to sell Blackwell chips to China, new subsidies for China's AI leaders, a potential Nexperia resolution, and questions the forthcoming fentanyl cooperation between the US and China.

Do you ever feel like budgeting is impossible because your income changes from month to month? If you're self-employed, work on commission, or depend on tips, you're not alone. Living on a variable income can feel like riding a financial roller coaster—one month you're doing fine, and the next, you're wondering how to make ends meet.But the good news is that God's Word offers wisdom that applies even in seasons of financial uncertainty. Proverbs 21:5 reminds us:“The plans of the diligent lead surely to abundance, but everyone who is hasty comes only to poverty.”No matter how steady—or unpredictable—your income is, a plan is essential.Build Your Budget on What You Know, Not What You HopeMany people make the mistake of budgeting around their best month. Wise stewardship means basing your plan on your lowest or average month, rather than your highest month.Start by reviewing your income over the past 6 to 12 months. Identify your lowest earning month, and use that as your “bare minimum” budget—what it takes to cover essentials like housing, utilities, groceries, transportation, and basic giving.For example, if your income ranges from $3,000 to $6,000, plan your budget around $3,000. When you earn more, that extra income becomes your margin—money you can use to pay down debt, save, or plan ahead for slower seasons.This approach protects you from overcommitting when income drops and helps you live within your means.Create an Income-Holding AccountWhen your income arrives irregularly, timing can be just as stressful as the amount. One simple solution is to use an income-holding account.Here's how it works:Deposit all income into one central account—your “holding tank.”Once a month, transfer your budgeted amount into your regular spending account.This method smooths out your cash flow, allowing you to “pay yourself” a steady income each month. Proverbs 27:23 gives this timeless reminder:“Know well the condition of your flocks, and give attention to your herds.”In today's world, that means knowing where your money is, where it's going, and when it's available.Also, if your income fluctuates, an emergency fund isn't optional—it's essential.Start by saving enough to cover one month's expenses, then aim for three to six months over time. Use “boom” months to grow your buffer before adding new spending. When slower seasons come, you'll be able to keep paying yourself consistently.Differentiate Between Fixed and Flexible ExpensesAnother key to managing a variable income is learning to distinguish between fixed and flexible expenses.Fixed expenses—like rent, insurance, and loan payments—stay the same.Flexible expenses—like dining out, entertainment, or travel—can adjust with your income.During lean months, trim flexible spending. When income increases, you can replenish your savings or increase your giving. Remember, self-control is one of the fruits of the Spirit (Galatians 5:22–23), and that includes how we handle our finances.One of the easiest ways to get off track is through “surprise” expenses that shouldn't be surprises—car repairs, insurance premiums, or property taxes.List all your irregular expenses for the year and divide each by twelve. Set that amount aside monthly in a sinking fund, so when those bills come, you're ready. No scrambling. No stress. Just peace that comes from faithful planning.Trust the Provider, Not the PaycheckEven when your income is unpredictable, God is not. Matthew 6 reminds us that our Heavenly Father knows what we need before we ask. He feeds the birds and clothes the flowers—and He will provide for His children.So whether your income changes weekly or seasonally, rest in this truth: stability isn't found in your paycheck—it's found in God's faithful provision.If you're ready to build a flexible, faith-filled budget, the FaithFi app can help.

Once I reach $200,000, I'd like to start investing $10,000 a month in something with greater growth potential, even if it carries a bit more risk. Right now, I'm earning about 4% at the bank. What would be a wise next step for that money?I've just moved into an independent living facility and am in the process of selling my condo, which should close soon. I'll need the proceeds to help cover my living expenses, but I'm wondering—how should I handle tithing on that money?I just wanted to express my gratitude for the way you and your team share wisdom so respectfully and thoughtfully. Listening to your program has really deepened my understanding and helped me grow.Resources Mentioned:Faithful Steward: FaithFi's New Quarterly Magazine (Become a FaithFi Partner)Wisdom Over Wealth: 12 Lessons from Ecclesiastes on MoneyLook At The Sparrows: A 21-Day Devotional on Financial Fear and AnxietyRich Toward God: A Study on the Parable of the Rich FoolFind a Certified Kingdom Advisor (CKA)FaithFi App Remember, you can call in to ask your questions every workday at (800) 525-7000.

The United States is facing a “crisis of legitimacy”, explained James Scaminaci III, PhD, an expert on fourth-generation psychological warfare. James earned his PhD from Stanford University, specializing in political sociology. I have done two previous interviews with him and wanted him to weigh in on current developments. He has a background as a former U.S. Naval intelligence officer, with specific expertise in the Soviet / Russian fleet. Additionally, James served as a senior civilian intelligence analyst at the European Command's Joint Analysis Center. I was honored to invite him back to discuss Fourth-Generation Warfare (4GW) and its influence on our current political struggles in the United States and worldwide. He referenced the work of sociologist and political scientist Martin Lipset, who served as chairman on his dissertation committee, “One, the government's effective, right? It performs well. It does its basic functions. It protects the people and gets the economy moving, etc. Everybody knows what that is, but then he said the second source of stability is the legitimacy of the political system.” James noted other essential factors as well, such as that individual values “are consistent with the values of the political system.” He discussed how the Christian Right currently sees the nation in a “spiritual warfare” scenario, thus exposing a conflict of cohesive values that threatens the legitimate services system. He noted that while this may not be a new phenomenon from a psychological perspective, we may be reaching an inflection point in the direction of destabilization. “The language changes, the means of communication have developed from the fax machine to memes on the internet, but it's still psychological warfare, and it's still getting in your mind and undermining the legitimacy of the United States government,” he said.

What do you do when competitors copy your ideas, wording, or services? In this episode, we share a practical mindset shift: ideas are cheap—execution is everything. We explore how delivery, team training, client experience, and reliability become the differentiators copycats can't replicate. We talk through stability as a strategy, resisting reactive changes, and doubling down on strengths. We close with concrete ways to serve deeper, not louder, so you lead for years—not minutes. Main topics: Copying vs. true execution Delivery as differentiation Stability as a strategy Serve deeper, not louder Training and systems moat Main takeaway: "Because people can copy what you offer. They can't copy who you are." People can copy your prices, your services, even your words—but not you. Your standards, training, reliability, and care are built day after day through consistent delivery. That's the moat no one sees on a webpage. When imitation shows up, don't get reactive—get excellent. Keep serving deeper, refining your systems, and showing up for clients. Consistency beats mimicry every time.

Polarization is a defining feature of politics in the United States and many other democracies. Yet although there is much research focusing on the effects of polarization on domestic politics, little is known about how polarization influences international cooperation and conflict. Democracies are thought to have advantages over nondemocratic nations in international relations, including the ability to keep foreign policy stable across time, credibly signal information to adversaries, and maintain commitments to allies. Does domestic polarization affect these “democratic advantages”? These are the questions that Rachel Myrick tackles in her new book, “Polarization and International Politics: How Extreme Partisanship Threatens Global Stability” (Princeton UP, 2025) In this timely book, Myrick argues that polarization reshapes the nature of constraints on democratic leaders, which in turn erodes the advantages democracies have in foreign affairs. Drawing on a range of evidence, including cross-national analyses, observational and experimental public opinion research, descriptive data on the behavior of politicians, and interviews with policymakers, Myrick develops metrics that explain the effect of extreme polarization on international politics and traces the pathways by which polarization undermines each of the democratic advantages. Turning to the case of contemporary US foreign policy, Myrick shows that as its political leaders become less responsive to the public and less accountable to political opposition, the United States loses both reliability as an ally and credibility as an adversary. Myrick's account links the effects of polarization on democratic governance to theories of international relations, integrating work across the fields of international relations, comparative politics, and American politics to explore how patterns of domestic polarization shape the international system. Our guest is Rachel Myrick, the Douglas & Ellen Lowey Associate Professor of Political Science at Duke University. Our host is Eleonora Mattiacci, an Associate Professor of Political Science at Amherst College. She is the author of "Volatile States in International Politics" (Oxford University Press, 2023).

From Project 2025 to creeping authoritarianism, Atlantic journalist David A. Graham lays out the threats to democracy — and why he still believes it's worth defending. Glad to have this timely conversation with David A. Graham, staff writer at The Atlantic, author of the Atlantic Daily newsletter, and the mind behind two major works: THE PROJECT: How Project 2025 Is Reshaping America and his latest featured story in THE ATLANTIC, Donald Trump's Plan to Subvert the Midterms Is Already Underway. In this jam-packed discussion, David breaks down the real-world impact of Project 2025, why competitive authoritarianism isn't just for foreign regimes anymore, and what history can teach us about the fragility—and resilience—of American democracy.  We also explore David's deep love for jazz and Americana music, his reflections on faith and public discourse, and how local connections might be the key to healing national divides. This is not a story about doom. It's about awareness, preparedness, and the people working behind the scenes to protect democracy.  

PREVIEW: The U.S.-Japan Alliance in the Pacific Guest: Grant Newsham Grant Newsham assesses the critical U.S.-Japan alliance in the Pacific as indispensable for regional stability. Japan relies on the U.S. military presence for defense protection, primarily against the threatening rise of China. Conversely, the U.S. needs Japan to maintain its own regional strength and capability. Furthermore, Japan is a top investor in the United States, supporting numerous well-paying jobs and emphasizing the depth of this multifaceted partnership. The alliance extends beyond defense to encompass significant economic interdependence, making the relationship essential for both nations' security and prosperity.
