Rachel Maddow points out that Donald Trump is following the "strongman" playbook so closely, and with such a lack of originality, that his behavior in his second term has become entirely predictable. And yet, for all of his aspirations to be a strongman, his leadership suffers from some profound weaknesses, from the economy to healthcare to criminal justice to immigration. Rachel Maddow talks with Jonathan Mahler, staff writer for the New York Times Magazine, about his reporting on the concerted effort by the Trump administration to destroy America's global leadership in cancer research. What constituency supports Donald Trump sabotaging work that not only saves lives but supports countless American jobs?Former CDC director Susan Monarez is set to testify before the Senate this week as HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy is stacking the vaccine advisory board with vaccine skeptics.And the Trump administration claimed to have burned a massive quanitity of contraceptives meant to be distributed in developing countries, with the false explanation that the contraceptives are abortifacients, only for it to be discovered that the contraceptives are still sitting in storage.Follow Rachel Maddow on BlueSky at https://bsky.app/profile/maddow.msnbc.com  Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

In November 2022, Benjamin Netanyahu returned to power in Israel after winning his sixth election. Propped up by a bloc of far-right and ultra-religious parties, Netanyahu's government is seen by many as the most extreme in Israeli history. But he is also a remarkably successful politician: he first won power in 1996 and is Israel's longest-serving prime minister. In September 2025 Anshel Pfeffer, one of the world's foremost experts on the Israeli Prime Minister came to Intelligence Squared for the third instalment of our Age of the Strongman series. Pfeffer drew from his forthcoming book 'No King In Israel: The Jewish State Confronts its Demons' to shed light on Netanyahu's bold vision for reshaping the Middle East, his cosy relationship with Donald Trump, his battles to silence the Israeli judiciary and his ongoing expansion of settlements in the West Bank. Pfeffer also explained the monumental shifts in Israeli politics that have taken place after October 7 and the wars in Gaza and Lebanon. Learn more about your ad choices.

All of humanity's feats, whether a record-setting deadlift by the world's strongest man or the construction of a gleaming city by a technologically advanced economy, originate from a single hidden source: positive net energy. Having surplus energy in the form of thirteen pounds of food per day enables a very big man, Hafthor Bjornsson, to lift very big objects. Similarly, having surplus energy in the form of fossil fuel enables very big societies to build and trade very big piles of stuff. Maybe Hafthor has a rock-solid plan for keeping his dinner plate well stocked, but no society seems ready to have a mature conversation about how our sprawling cities and nations will manage as net energy declines. Calling our conversation “mature” might be a stretch, but at least we're willing to address climate change, sustainability, and the rest of the net energy conundrum head on. Alice Friedemann, author of Life after Fossil Fuels, joins the conversation. Originally recorded on April 10, 2021.Support the show

In this episode we had the great pleasure of speaking with world class strength athlete Sandra Bradley. Sandra has reached the pinnacle of the sport of Strongman and dedicated much of her life to it, but what holds an even greater piece of her heart is historical stone lifting and immersing herself in the incredible cultures and communities within which these stones are found. She has performed some of the most impressive stone lifts we have ever seen and in doing so has paved the way and shown what is possible for the many other remarkable women who participate in this historical practice. Not only that, she is a perfect representation for us all of how dedication, grit, and a no quit attitude can carry you incredibly far in both Stonelifting and in life.

In this episode of the Bacon, Bibles, and Barbells Podcast, some of the High Calling Fitness coaches Justin, Amanda, and Emily cover WHY WE DON'T DO CROSSFIT. People ask us this frequently. "I'm doing CrossFit, isn't that enough?" We talk through why we think CrossFit is not the ideal method for most people. We are thankful to CrossFit for popularizing lifting and barbells and handing that to the culture at large. Strength Training is more popular than ever before, largely due to their influence. We talk about the expense, the culture, the injury risk, the burnout, and the sustainability (or lack there-of) of the CrossFit way. There are several reasons why we just don't recommend it for anyone trying to make a sustainable lifestyle change, especially if you are over 30! Most people benefit WAY more from a personalized approach, aimed at muscle mass and overall health for the long run. Give it a listen here or wherever you get your podcasts!
