CBS EYE ON THE WORLD WITH JOHN BATCHELOR SHOW SCHEDULE 9-12-25 GOOD EVENING. THE SHOW BEGINS IN GAZA WITH THE GOAL OF DEHAMASIFICATION.. FIRST HOUR 9-915 John Bolton criticizes the "two-state solution" as a dead idea post-October 7th, proposing a "three-state solution" where Gaza returns to Egypt or is divided, and the West Bank is managed by Israel and Jordan. He emphasizes "De-Hamasification" as crucial and humanitarian, arguing that Arab nations, particularly Egypt, resist taking Gazan refugees due to fears of importing Hamas/Muslim Brotherhood influence. Bolton believes this is necessary for a stable future in the region. 915-930 Lorenzo Fiori shares a traditional Milanese recipe for "rice with saffron" (risotto alla Milanese), often served at La Scalagala dinners, describing it as delicious and creamy with parmesan cheese. He recommends pairing it with Italian wines like Barolo or Barbaresco from Piedmont. Fiori also discusses Italy's economic concerns regarding political instability in France and Germany, and the ongoing international interest in NATO events. 930-945 Gene Marks describes a mixed economic picture, noting that a national "slowdown" isn't universally felt, with many small businesses thriving. He highlights challenges like rising healthcare costs, spurring interest in self-insurance and health reimbursement arrangements. Marks discusses AI's impact on the workforce, specifically reducing sales and tech roles in large companies like Salesforce, but predicts a surge in demand for skilled trades not easily replaced by AI. 945-1000 CONTINUED Gene Marks describes a mixed economic picture, noting that a national "slowdown" isn't universally felt, with many small businesses thriving.

SECOND HOUR 10-1015 Jim McTague reports from Lancaster County, PA, challenging the narrative of an economic slowdown. He shares examples of busy local businesses like "Phil the painter" who has never been busier. McTague observes a trend of housing price cuts, but notes vibrant local tourism and events. He highlights the significant economic boost from two new data centers, creating 600-1000 construction jobs and 150 permanent positions, bringing the county into the 21st century. 1015-1030 Max Meizlish, a senior research analyst, highlights how Chinese money laundering networks are fueling America's fentanyl epidemic by cleaning drug proceeds for Mexican cartels. These networks also enable wealthy Chinese nationals to bypass capital control 1030-1045 Richard Epstein discusses federal district court judges defying presidential orders, attributing it to a breakdown of trust and the president's "robust view of executive power" that disregards established procedures and precedents. He explains that judges may engage in "passive resistance" or "cheating in self-defense" when they perceive the president acting for political reasons or abusing power, such as in budget cuts or dismissals. Epstein also links this distrust to gerrymandering and increasing political polarization1045-1100 Richard Epstein discusses federal district court judges defying presidential orders, attributing it to a breakdown of trust and the president's "robust view of executive power" that disregards established procedures and precedents.

Epstein also links this distrust to gerrymandering and increasing political polarization. THIRD HOUR 1100-1115 Henry Sokolski addresses the critical challenge of the US power grid meeting AI data center demands, which are projected to require gigawatt-scale facilities and vastly increased electricity by 2030. He questions who bears the risk and cost of this buildout, advocating for AI companies to fund their own power generation. Sokolski also discusses the debate around nuclear power as a solution and Iran's suspect nuclear weapons program, highlighting the complexities of snapback sanctions and accounting for uranium. 1115-1130 CONTINUED Henry Sokolski addresses the critical challenge of the US power grid meeting AI data center demands, which are projected to require gigawatt-scale facilities and vastly increased electricity by 2030.

Sokolski also discusses the debate around nuclear power as a solution and Iran's suspect nuclear weapons program, highlighting the complexities of snapback sanctions and accounting for uranium.1130-1145 Professor John Cochrane of the Hoover Institution attributes current inflation to the fiscal theory of the price level. He explains that massive government spending, such as the $5 trillion borrowed during COVID-19 with $3 trillion printed by the Fed, combined with no credible plan for repayment, directly causes inflation. Cochrane differentiates this from monetarism, noting that quantitative easing (printing money and taking back bonds) did not lead to inflation. He emphasizes that the 2022 inflation spike was a loss of confidence in the government's ability to pay its debts. Successful disinflations, he argues, require a combination of monetary, fiscal, and microeconomic reforms. 1145-1200 Professor John Cochrane of the Hoover Institution attributes current inflation to the fiscal theory of the price level.

He notes the president's decisiveness, courtesy to subordinates, and long workdays, with constant activity in the Oval Office. Black contrasts this informal style with Roosevelt and Nixon, suggesting it's a "three-ring circus" that nonetheless works due to Trump's methods. He also touches on Canadian perceptions, acknowledging Trump's work ethic despite political differences.EV1215-1230 Brandon Weichert highlights the immense power demands of AI and AGI data centers, requiring gigawatts of electricity and facing significant regulatory hurdles. He discusses the potential weaponization of AI, noting human nature's tendency to weaponize new technologies. Weichert shares personal experiences with AI tools like Grok, Gemini, and Claude, including instances of AI "diversion" rather than hallucination. He emphasizes the need to master this technology, as the substantial investment ensures its permanence.1230-1245 Bob Zimmerman details SpaceX's expanding Starlink reach, including a $17 billion deal to acquire Echostar's FCCspectrum licenses, ensuring Echostar's survival by partnering rather than competing.

CBS EYE ON THE WORLD WITH JOHN BATCHELOR SHOW SCHEDULE 9-10-25 Good evening. The show begins in Poland as the government and military respond to drones crossing the Belarus to Poland border... FIRST HOUR 9-915 General Blaine Holt NATO Reacts to Russian Drone Incursions into Poland General Blaine Holt analyzes Russiandrone incursions into Polish airspace from Belarus, triggering a NATO Article 4 meeting. While NATO calls it an "intentional incursion" to allow de-escalation, Poland considers it an "act of war." The incident highlights NATO's rapid response capabilities and the broader "poly crisis" in Europe, requiring diplomatic de-escalation. 915-930 CONTINUED General Blaine Holt NATO Reacts to Russian Drone Incursions into Poland General Blaine Holt analyzes Russiandrone incursions into Polish airspace from Belarus, triggering a NATO Article 4 meeting.

The LDP lacks a majority, complicating coalition-building. Takaichi Sanae, a conservative candidate critical of China, is opposed by Beijing's propagandists, highlighting China's active influence in the Japanese political landscape .945-1000 Captain James Fanell NATO Article 4 Invoked Amidst Russian Drones, China's South China Sea AggressionCaptain James Fanell discusses NATO's Article 4 invocation after Russian drones entered Polish airspace during Zapad exercises, potentially testing defenses. He also details China's escalating aggression in the South China Sea, where its navy chased a Philippine vessel near Scarborough Shoal. The "poly crisis" necessitates increased US defense spending and alliances. SECOND HOUR 10-1015 Steve Yates Pentagon's National Defense Strategy Amidst Global Crises Steve Yates discusses the Pentagon's new National Defense Strategy (NDS), which prioritizes China as the "pacing challenge" over climate change. The "Fortress America" concept of homeland defense is debated against the need for alliances and extended deterrence. Events like Russian drones in Poland underscore the loss of US initiative and the urgency of adaptive defense strategies. 1015-1030 Charles Burton Canada's Dilemma: Chinese EVs and National Security Charles Burton discusses Canada'sreluctance to link national security with China, specifically regarding Chinese EVs (dubbed "spy machines"). Canadaimposed 100% tariffs at US request, leading to China's retaliation on Canadian canola. This creates a dilemma, as Canada prioritizes economic gain despite China's espionage and potential US border bans on Chinese EVs.1030-1045 Andrea Stricker Iran's Nuclear Program Targeted, Verification Crisis Ensues Andrea Stricker discusses Israel and USstrikes on Iran's nuclear facilities like Fordo, Natanz, and Isfahan, destroying centrifuges and weaponization capabilities. The IAEA cannot verify Iran's nuclear material locations after inspectors were expelled. Iran's 60% enriched uranium poses a proliferation risk, leading to anticipated UN sanctions. The strikes prevented JCPOA-allowed centrifuge surges.1045-1100CONTINUED Andrea Stricker Iran's Nuclear Program Targeted, Verification Crisis Ensues Andrea Stricker discusses Israel and USstrikes on Iran's nuclear facilities like Fordo, Natanz, and Isfahan, destroying centrifuges and weaponization capabilities.

He highlights the pro-North Korea South Korean administration's alignment with China and Russia. The unified appearance of Kim Jong-un, Xi Jinping, and Vladimir Putin at a Beijing parade solidifies them as a formidable "axis of adversaries," intimidating the West.1245-100 AM Michael Bernstam Falling Oil Prices Threaten Russia's Economy, Boost US and Europe Michael Bernstam explains that falling oil prices, forecasted to drop to $50/barrel due to increased OPEC supply, will severely impact Russia'sbudget (based on $70/barrel) and push it towards recession.

In this episode of Pushing the Limits, Lisa Tamati sits down with Cern Basher, financial analyst and commentator, to explore how Elon Musk's companies are not just reshaping industries but also driving us toward an entirely new economic and technological system. We break down Tesla's disruptive role in the automotive and energy sectors, SpaceX's transformation of space access, and how Musk's broader ecosystem, including Starlink, Neuralink, and The Boring Company, represents a coordinated push to re-engineer our future infrastructure. Cern explains how these companies function as a parallel system, shifting us from legacy industries and centralised control toward decentralised, tech-driven frameworks. We also explore: Tesla's market dominance and its implications for energy sovereignty SpaceX and the geopolitics of global satellite communication The Musk “ecosystem effect”, how each company feeds into the other The financial, cultural, and political risks that accompany these transitions How investors and everyday people can position themselves in this shift If you want to understand how the Musk industry empire is changing the way we live, work, and build wealth, this conversation is for you.

They told you Bitcoin was too volatile to ever work. But volatility isn't a bug, it's the heartbeat that took Bitcoin from pennies to $100,000… and it's the same force that will drive it to $1M. In this episode of Beyond Bitcoin, Oshins breaks down why critics misunderstand volatility, why the dollar, not Bitcoin, is the unstable asset, and how every wild swing is actually proof of Bitcoin's vitality. With historical context, metaphors that make sense, and even Michael Saylor weighing in, this is the ultimate explanation of why volatility = growth.If you've ever been shaken out by a 20% drop, this is your reminder: the heartbeat means Bitcoin is alive. And the signal is clear... $1M is on the horizon!SPONSORS:
SpaceX just fired off one of the biggest shots yet in the spectrum wars, agreeing to pay $17 billion to take over a massive chunk of wireless airwaves from EchoStar for Starlink's Direct-to-Cell services. The deal is the most aggressive signal yet that SpaceX wants to rule the satellite-to-phone market. Also, Ramp answered any lingering questions as to why investors recently valued the expense management startup at $22.5 billion, just 45 days after a previous funding round valued it at $16 billion: The company says it has achieved $1 billion in annualized revenue.

China Holds V-Day Commemoration中国举办庆祝反法西斯战争胜利80周年纪念活动September 3, 2025 [Photo/CGTN]2025年9月3号,中国环球电视网CGTN发布了一条标题为China Holds V-Day Commemoration的新闻。hold这个词用的很地道。在英文中:举办一场活动的“举办”就可以用hold。V-Day其实是Victory Day的缩写,也就是胜利日,在这里指“中国人民抗日战争暨反法西斯战争胜利80周年纪念日”。commemoration (读音/kəˌmeməˈreɪʃn/) ,这个词看起来很难,其实就三部分:前缀com-,词根memor和后缀-tion。我们一起来看一下:其中,前缀com-表示“和……一起”,例如community(读音/kəˈmjuːnəti/)意思是“社区”,其实就是大家一起住的地方。词根memor和“记忆”相关,比如memory(读音/ˈmeməri/),意思是回忆、记忆。commemor就是大家一起回忆、纪念,加上一个名词后缀-tion,就变成了commemoration,意思是“纪念活动”。中间这个字母“a”只是起发音上的连接作用。所以,V-Day commemoration在这里是指中国人民抗日战争暨反法西斯战争胜利80周年纪念活动。那新闻标题China Holds V-Day Commemoration的意思就是中国举办庆祝反法西斯战争胜利80周年纪念活动。⏩Language Note2025年9月3日,中国在天安门广场举行了阅兵仪式。值得注意的是,在中国的英文新闻网站报道里,“阅兵”一词几乎都是用的V-Day parade,而外媒一般都会用military parade(军事游行)。新闻来源:CGTN02. Putin: Russia will Reciprocate Visa-free Policy for Chinese普京:俄将对等实施对华免签政策September 5, 2025 [Photo/Agencies]2025年9月5号,中国环球电视网CGTN发布了一条标题为Putin: Russia will Reciprocate Visa-free Policy for Chinese的新闻。Putin是指现任俄罗斯总统普京。在新闻标题中,人名Putin后边直接加了冒号,这是一个英文新闻标题的固定用法,表示后面这句话是这个人的观点;它就等于Putin said(普京说)。那Putin到底说什么了呢?Putin said, Russia will reciprocate.Russia(读音/ˈrʌʃə/)是俄国的意思。reciprocate(读音/rɪˈsɪprəkeɪt/)意思是“回报”,在政治和外交新闻中会经常见到。首先,它的前缀re-在英文单词中很常见,是“往回”的意思。其次,recipro的“pro”表示“向前”(forward),再加上动词后缀-cate,就变成了reciprocate。别人向前给你的好处你再给回去,就是“回报”。所以reciprocate的意思就是“回报,或者两国之间互惠互利”。回报什么呢?Visa-free policy,我们可以把这个词组拆开来看。free大家很熟悉,就是免费的意思,那么“...free”就是“免掉……”。visa(读音/ˈviːzə/)是签证的意思。policy(读音/ˈpɑːləsi/)是政策。那么合起来visa-free policy,意思就是“免签政策”。接下来,我们再回看新闻标题——reciprocate visa-free policy。reciprocate这个词在这里用的很妙。之所以用reciprocate,是因为在这条新闻报道之前,中国宣布试行对俄罗斯免签政策;在这个基础上,俄罗斯总统普京表态要回报我们的免签政策,所以才用reciprocate一词。总的来看,新闻标题Putin: Russia will Reciprocate Visa-free Policy for Chinese就可以翻译为——普京:俄将对等实施对华免签政策。新闻来源:CGTN03. SpaceX Launches 24 Starlink Satellites to Orbit from CaliforniaSpaceX从加利福尼亚州发射24颗星链卫星进入轨道August 30, 2025 [Photo/SpaceX]2025年8月30号,Space X(马斯克创立的航天公司)发布了一条标题为SpaceX Launches 24 Starlink Satellites to Orbit from California的新闻。从标题中我们可以直接得知,这条新闻是在说SpaceX 做了一件事——launches 24 Starlink satellites to orbit。launch(读音/lɔ: ntʃ/)是指“发射,把什么东西送上太空”。It means to send something into the space.Starlink 看起来生僻,实则简单。Star是星星,link是链路。那starlink就是“星链”。satellite(读音/ˈsætəlaɪt/)是“卫星”的意思,在科技领域非常常见。例如,satellite TV就是卫星电视。orbit(读音/ˈɔ: rbɪt/)是“轨道”的意思。所以,“lanuch Starlink satellites to orbit”就是“发射星链卫星进入轨道”的意思。它是从哪发射的呢?From California,是从加利福尼亚州发射的。California(读音/ˌkæləˈfɔ: rniə/),加利福尼亚州(美国西部太平洋沿岸的一个州)。SpaceX Launches 24 Starlink Satellites to Orbit from California意思就是SpaceX 从加利福尼亚州发射24颗星链卫星进入轨道。新闻来源:SpaceX04. Young Children Diagnosed with ADHD are Often Prescribed Medication too Quickly, Study Finds研究发现,被诊断患有多动症的幼儿往往被过快开药治疗September 2, 2025 [Photo/CBS News]这是一条来自CBS哥伦比亚广播公司在医疗领域的新闻标题:Young Children Diagnosed with ADHD are Often Prescribed Medication too Quickly, Study Finds这条新闻中主语是young children(小孩子)。那是什么样的小孩子呢?Young children diagnosed with ADHD.ADHD是注意缺陷与多动障碍,就是我们俗称的多动症。diagnose(读音/ˌdaɪəɡˈnoʊs /)是诊断病症的意思,那diagnosed with就是“被确诊患有……疾病”。所以,Young children diagnosed with ADHD就是指“患有多动症的儿童”。我们继续往下看,“are often prescribed medication too quickly”。prescribe(读音/prɪˈskraɪb/)是“开药方、开处方”的意思,“are prescribed medication”就是被动语态——被开药治疗。它的名词形式常出现在药瓶上:Prescription(读音/prɪˈskrɪpʃ(ə)n/)处方药。所以,“are often prescribed medication too quickly”就是指“往往被过快开药治疗”。最后,新闻标题里补充了study finds,意思是“研究发现”。study 除了有学习的意思之外,还可以被翻译为“研究、调查”。整合来看,Young Children Diagnosed with ADHD are Often Prescribed Medication too Quickly, Study Finds 就可以被翻译为——研究发现:被诊断患有多动症的幼儿往往被过快开药治疗。新闻来源:CBS News05. Disney to Pay $10 million to Settle FTC Lawsuit over Collecting Kid's Data迪士尼将支付1000万美元解决联邦贸易委员会关于收集儿童数据的诉讼September 2, 2025 [Photo/ Los Angeles Times]今天的最后一条标题是Disney to Pay $10 million to Settle FTC Lawsuit over Collecting Kid's Data。看完标题,你也许会疑惑:Disney to Pay $10 million,这里为什么没有谓语动词呢?其实这种结构在新闻标题里经常出现,“主语+ to +动词”,表示“将要做某事”。所以“to pay”就等于“be going to pay”。那标题里“Disney to pay $10 million”就是说“迪士尼将要支付1000万美元”。我们继续看,迪士尼将要支付1000万美元干什么呢?To settle FTC lawsuit.settle(读音/ˈset(ə)l/),意思是“解决、结束”。FTC 是美国联邦委员会的缩写。lawsuit(读音/ˈlɔ: su: t/)是“诉讼案件”的意思。所以to settle FTC lawsuit,就是为了解决被FTC起诉的诉讼案件。那么是关于什么的诉讼案件呢?Over collecting kid's data,收集儿童的数据。当然采取的是一种非法途径。Disney to Pay $10 million to Settle FTC Lawsuit over Collecting Kid's Data就是说迪士尼将支付1000万美元以解决因收集儿童数据而被FTC起诉的案件。新闻来源:CBS NewsRead the world, expand your view! 英语读世界,热点拓视野!每周二晚8点我们不见不散!下期见喽!收听方式《儿童视界周刊》将在:微信公众号、苹果播客、喜马拉雅、网易云、小宇宙等平台同步更新。别忘了订阅我们的节目哦!

Google is opnieuw aangeklaagd door een online advertentieplatform dat beweert geschaadt te worden door Googles monopoliepositie op de online advertentiemarkt. PubMatic, zoals het advertentieplatform heet dat onder andere voor reclames op X zorgt, eist miljarden dollars. Eerder werd Google ook al aangeklaagd door OpenX, een ander advertentieplatform dat ook beweert geschaadt te worden. Niels Kooloos vertelt erover in deze Tech Update. De eis van PubMatic komt in dezelfde maand waarin Google te horen gaat krijgen of het de advertentietak gedwongen moet verkopen. De verwachte uitspraak moet een einde maken aan de marktmacht van het bedrijf, dat in april werd bestempeld als monopolist op de online advertentiemarkt door de Amerikaanse rechter. Vorig jaar werd Google ook al bestempeld als monopolist op de online zoekmarkt door een andere rechter. De oplossing daarvoor is vorige week aangekondigd en luidt dat Google gegevens moet gaan delen met de concurrentie. Eerder werd verwacht dat Google zijn webbrowser Chrome gedwongen moest verkopen, maar die maatregel bleek toch niet proportioneel. Verder in deze Tech Update: SpaceX koopt frequentievergunningen van telecombedrijf EchoStar om het Starlink-netwerk uit te breiden De Duitse tak van Vodafone experimenteert met een volledig door AI-gegenereerde advertentie op onder andere TikTok See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

NASA, the crown jewel of 20th-century technocratic liberalism, was the first to land humans on the Moon but now depends on SpaceX for its access to space. Atlantic writer Franklin Foer believes this reflects a diminishment of national capability and that NASA was inadvertently responsible for its own decline. He traces this transformation from a collective pursuit of higher values to a more individualistic — and idiosyncratic — motivation based on utility and extraction, and ties it to a larger trend in American politics over the past 50 years. Along the way, Frank and host Casey Dreier discuss if Elon Musk is the antithesis of Carl Sagan, the tensions between individualism and collectivism in American politics, and the role of the romantic ideal in the symbolism of space exploration.

SHOW SCHEDULE 9-3-25 CBS EYE ON THE WORLD WITH JOHN BATCHELOR GOOD EVENING: The show begins in Beijing, watching the trio of Xi, Putin and Kim review the display of offensive weapons and offensive battalions. FIRST HOUR 9-915 John Batchelor 09-03 segment 1.mp3 Guest: Colonel Jeff McCausland, United States Army retired artilleryman, CBS News, Dickinson College visiting professor, and Diamond 6 Leadership and Strategy CEO. Global Geopolitics and Military Displays Colonel Jeff McCausland discusses a Beijing military parade featuring Xi Jinping, Kim Jong-un, and Vladimir Putin, interpreting it as a message of strength and innovation, not peace, while downplaying the US role in WWII. He also covers the static battle lines in Ukraine, European proposals for a military force, and US involvement in Middle East conflicts in Yemen and Gaza, noting a tactical agreement with the Houthis. 915-930 : John Batchelor 09-03 segment 2.mp3 Guest: Colonel Jeff McCausland, United States Army retired artilleryman, CBS News, Dickinson College visiting professor, and Diamond 6 Leadership and Strategy CEO. Pentagon's Evolving Mission and Global Order Colonel Jeff McCausland discusses the new national military strategy emphasizing homeland defense as the primary mission for the Department of Defense, shifting from an international "cop on the beat" role to a domestic one. This is reflected in increased border forces and Caribbean operations. McCausland also touches on China's ambition to establish a new global order, returning to its perceived historical position as a superpower, utilizing organizations like BRICS and the Shanghai Cooperation Organization.930-945 John Batchelor 09-03 segment 3.mp3 Guest: John Cochrane at the Hoover Institution. Federal Reserve Independence and Financial Regulation John Cochrane explores the complex debate on whether financial regulation should be integrated with or separated from monetary policy and less independent of Congress. He raises concerns about the Fed's independence, its failure to foresee the Silicon Valley Bank collapse, and the "too big to fail" phenomenon. Cochrane also discusses the risks of the Fed monetizing debt, its stance on stablecoins, and how its actions influence fiscal policy. 945-1000 John Batchelor 09-03 segment 4.mp3 Guest: John Cochrane of the Hoover Institution. Reforming the Federal Reserve's Role John Cochrane addresses proposals to reorganize the Federal Reserve, questioning whether it should become more political or have its scope narrowed to monetary policy, his preferred option. He criticizes the Fed'spandemic response, specifically its decision to print trillions of dollars for deficits, which he argues was a choice leading to the 2022 inflation. Cochrane also examines the wisdom of Quantitative Easing (QE), suggesting it had limited economic impact but expanded the Fed's political influence. SECOND HOUR 10-1015 John Batchelor 09-03 segment 5.mp3 Guests: Gordon Chang and General Blaine Holt, US Air Force General, retired. China's Historical Revisionism and Autocratic Alliances Gordon Chang and General Blaine Holtdiscuss China's military parade, led by Xi Jinping, which falsely claims Chinese victory over Japan in WWII, omitting the US and Allied contributions. Holt views the parade as theater for a crumbling Belt and Road Initiative, not a united front. They note India's absence from the parade due to animosity with China. Despite appearances, Putin and Kim Jong-un also have underlying animosity towards Xi Jinping, making their alliance one of expediency, not unity.1015-1030 John Batchelor 09-03 segment 6.mp3 Guests: Gordon Chang and Peter Huessy, President of Geostrategic Analysis, a fellow at the National Institute for Deterrent Studies. China's Nuclear Ambitions and Arms Control Challenges Peter Huessy describes China's nuclear weapons as tools for coercion and hegemonic goals, a stark contrast to the US view of deterrence. He notes China's rapid nuclear buildup, exceeding Soviet Union rates during the Cold War. Huessy and Gordon Chang discuss the imminent expiration of the New Start treaty with Russia and the absence of arms control talks with China, which has historically aided proliferation. This signals a "brave new world" with zero legal restraint on nuclear weapons.1030-1045 : John Batchelor 09-03 segment 7.mp3 Guests: Gordon Chang and Captain James Fanell, United States Navy retired, intelligence officer for the Seventh Fleet and for the Indo-Pacific Theater. Pacific Tensions: Philippines, China, and US Naval Strategy Captain James Fanell and Gordon Chang analyze China's strategic ambition to subjugate the Philippines, building militarized islands in the South China Sea. Fanell highlights Scarborough Shoal as a critical "cork in the bottle," potentially used by China as a military base. He notes the Philippines' new forward operating base with anti-ship missiles in the Bashi Channel as a counter. Fanell suggests a reinvigorated US Navymorale and a shift in the Pentagon's approach to deter China.1045-1100 John Batchelor 09-03 segment 8.mp3 Guests: Gordon Chang and Rebecca Grant, Vice President of the Lexington Institute. Venezuela, Guyana, and US Deterrence in the Caribbean Rebecca Grant discusses Guyana'sburgeoning oil wealth and Venezuela's threatening territorial claims under Maduro, who also opposes democracy. She and Gordon Chang analyze a significant US Navy presence off Venezuela's coast, including destroyers and a Marine Expeditionary Unit, as a strong deterrent against Maduro's actions and his alliances with Russia and China. Grantindicates improving morale and combat readiness within the US Navy, emphasizing its vital role in global operations. THIRD HOUR John Batchelor 09-03 segment 9.mp3 Guest: Brett Arends of Market Watch (Return on Investment). Bond Market Anxiety and Federal Reserve Pressures Brett Arends explains the bond market's current unhappiness stems from unsustainable national debt and uncertainty surrounding President Trump's tariffs. He clarifies that the Fedcontrols short-term rates, while the bond market sets long-term rates. Arends warns that Trump's pressure on the Fed to cut short-term rates could paradoxically cause long-term rates, including mortgage rates, to rise, hurting the economy and exacerbating market nervousness. He emphasizes the need for fiscal sustainability. 1100-1115 : John Batchelor 09-03 segment 9.mp3 Guest: Brett Arends of Market Watch (Return on Investment).

Addressing Bond Market Turmoil Brett Arends explains that the troubled bond market stems from unsustainable national debt and recent court rulings questioning President Trump's tariffs. He advises Donald Trump to support Federal Reserve independence, abandon attacks on Jerome Powell and Lisa Cook, and work with Congress on tariffs to ensure fiscal sustainability and calm market anxieties. Arends notes that gold's all-time high reflects a lack of market confidence.1130-1145 John Batchelor 09-03 segment 11.mp3 Guest: Bob Zimmerman who keeps the website Behind the Black. New Discoveries in Space and Planetary Science Bob Zimmerman highlights new solar research using the European Space Agency's Solar Orbiter probe, improving predictions of solar events that impact Earth's technology.

The Rise of AI in Romance Simon Constable shares surprising polling data from the Kinsey Institute on romantic engagement with AI. He reveals that 16% of single adult Americans romantically interact with AI, with Gen Z being the most likely cohort at 33%. Furthermore, 44% of single Americans dating AI believe emotional support from an AI partner is superior to human support, highlighting a stark generational shift in romantic relationships.1230-1245 John Batchelor 09-03 segment 15.mp3 Guest: Janatyn Sayeh from the Foundation for Defense of Democracies. Iran's Nuclear Dilemma and Regional Threats Janatyn Sayeh discusses the looming snapback mechanism of the 2015 JCPOA, which could reinstate UN sanctions on Iran if it fails to comply with demands. Iran's non-compliance has its currency hitting new lows, yet Tehran threatens regional war and exiting the NPT if sanctions return. Sayeh notes Iran seeks rearmament, primarily from China, with Belarus and North Korea acting as potential intermediaries for Russian weapons.1245-100 AM John Batchelor 09-03 segment 16.mp3 Guest: Ivana Stradner from the Foundation for the Defense of Democracies. Autocracy and Protests in the Western Balkans Ivana Stradner reports on mass protests in Belgrade demanding snap elections following a fatal accident and criticizing President Alexander Vučić's autocratic regime, which she likens to "Belarus 2.0". Vučić is accused of corruption and suppressing free media, while fostering close military and economic ties with China and Russia to maintain power and "blackmail" the West. Stradner expresses concern over the repression against Serbian people.
What does it take to map the oceans when most of the world's seabed remains unseen and unmapped? That's the question I explored with Mike Liddell from Fugro, a company using technology to reveal what lies beneath the waves. In our conversation, Mike explained why surveying the ocean is like “working in heavy fog on a roller coaster” and how traditional tools like light and radio signals are useless underwater. Instead, sonar, robotics, and increasingly AI are stepping in to make sense of this hidden world. Mike described the huge scale of the challenge, from mapping areas larger than major cities to supporting offshore wind farms that power our clean energy transition. With labour shortages and younger generations less willing to spend months at sea, Fugro is shifting to remote operations centres and uncrewed surface vessels. These new approaches not only widen the talent pool but also cut fuel use dramatically—by as much as 95 percent compared to older ships. What really struck me was the pace of change. A few years ago, offshore vessels struggled with internet speeds reminiscent of dial-up modems. Today, satellite systems like Starlink make real-time collaboration between sea and shore possible. Add in AI that can process data at the edge and make instant decisions about where and how to collect information, and you begin to see how marine surveying is entering a new era. This episode is a glimpse into that frontier and into how technology is reshaping the way we understand and care for our blue planet. ********* Visit the Sponsor of Tech Talks Network: Land your first job in tech in 6 months as a Software QA Engineering Bootcamp with Careerist https://crst.co/OGCLA

Xi Jinping, Narendra Modi i Władimir Putin razem na szczycie Szanghajskiej Organizacji Współpracy w porcie Tianjin na północy Chin. A zaraz potem spektakularna parada wojskowa w Pekinie z udziałem między innymi lidera Korei Północnej Kim Dzong Una, za to bez wysokich rangą przedstawicieli Zachodu. To program ofensywy dyplomatyczno-militarnej szykowanej przez Chiny w najbliższych dniach. Czy obawa przed skutkami agresywnej polityki handlowej Donalda Trumpa wystarczy, by pogodzić sprzeczne interesy państw Globalnego Południa? I czy zgodzą się one na to, by w roli mediatora wystąpiły Chiny? Jak przebiega proces budowania alternatywnego dla Pax Americana porządku światowego, w którym Pekin chce odgrywać kluczową rolę?Kolejne śmiercionośne ataki Rosji na Kijów i inne miasta ukraińskie. W stolicy Rosjanie zabili co najmniej 23 cywilów. Moskwa nie zgadza się na rozejm, Putin wyklucza rozmowy z Zełenskim. A w Polsce prezydent wetuje ustawę o przedłużeniu pomocy dla Ukraińców i opłat za system satelitarny Starlink. Jakie mogą być tego skutki?Nie będzie traktatu, który miał ograniczyć skalę i skutki zanieczyszczenia plastikiem. Niby wszyscy się zgadzają, że tworzywa sztuczne szkodzą człowiekowi i środowisku, ale nie ma zgody co do tego, jak walczyć z zanieczyszczeniem plastikiem. Dlaczego?Australia wydala ambasadora Iranu pod zarzutem wspierania przez ten kraj antysemickich zamachów w Sydney i Melbourne. A równocześnie zapowiada uznanie państwa palestyńskiego. Premier Albanese wchodzi w konflikt zarówno z Iranem, jak i Izraelem. Dlaczego?Czym jest kontrolowany przez Elona Muska system Starlink, do czego służy i dlaczego wykorzystywanie go rozbudza polityczne emocje. Czy są alternatywy dla Starlinka?Komuniści wymordowali więcej ludzi niż faszyści. Dlaczego zatem postawienie pomnika ofiarom zbrodni komunistycznych budzi we Francji sprzeciw?Rozkład jazdy: (03:21) Michał Lubina: Chiny budują nowy światowy ład(25:06) Zbigniew Parafianowicz: Kijów pod ostrzałem, dylematy Ukrainy(55:14) Grzegorz Dobiecki: Świat z boku - Stare i nowe mury(1:02:00) Podziękowania(1:08:26) Marcin Żyła: Co robić z plastikiem: przetwarzać czy nie produkować?(1:27:49) Łukasz Wójcik: Australia w sporze z Iranem i Izraelem(1:50:02) Tomasz Rożek: Dlaczego Starlink jest ważny(2:13:47) Do usłyszenia---------------------------------------------Raport o stanie świata to audycja, która istnieje dzięki naszym Patronom, dołącz się do zbiórki ➡️ https://patronite.pl/DariuszRosiakSubskrybuj newsletter Raportu o stanie świata ➡️ https://dariuszrosiak.substack.comKoszulki i kubki Raportu ➡️ https://patronite-sklep.pl/kolekcja/raport-o-stanie-swiata/ [Autopromocja]

General News 01:02 AOL is finally shutting down its dial-up internet service | AP News AOL is discontinuing its dial-up internet service on September 30, 2024, marking the end of a technology that introduced millions to the internet in the 1990s and early 2000s. Census data shows 163,401 US households still used dial-up in 2023, representing 0.13% of homes with internet subscriptions, highlighting the persistence of legacy infrastructure in underserved areas – which is honestly crazy. Here's hoping that these folks are able to switch to alternatives, like Starlink. This shutdown reflects broader technology lifecycle patterns as companies retire legacy services like Skype, Internet Explorer, and AOL Instant Messenger to focus resources on modern platforms. The transition away from dial-up demonstrates the evolution from telephone-based connectivity to broadband and wireless technologies that now dominate internet access. AOL’s journey from a $164 billion valuation in 2000 to being sold by Verizon in 2021 illustrates the rapid shifts in technology markets and the challenges of ada
