Zelfs na zijn dood blijft Desi Bouterse Suriname verdelen. Hij was de sterke man van een militair regime, tien jaar lang democratisch gekozen president, en hoofdverantwoordelijke voor de Decembermoorden van 1982. Anderhalf jaar geleden werd hij veroordeeld — een mijlpaal voor de Surinaamse rechtsstaat. Maar van echte gerechtigheid kwam het niet: Bouterse verdween. Pas een jaar later werd hij teruggevonden. Dood.Onderzoeksplatform Investico probeerde te achterhalen waar Bouterse zich schuilhield, en stuitte op een web van politieke belangen en stilzwijgende afspraken. Bouterse had altijd een trouwe achterban in Suriname. Was de regering werkelijk onmachtig om hem op te pakken, of speelde er meer?In deze podcast spreekt Kees van den Bosch met Investico-journalist Sylvana van den Braak, die samen met collega Linda van der Pol naar Suriname reisde voor het onderzoek. Ze bespreken opmerkelijke getuigenissen over de verdwenen oud-president, de werking van de Surinaamse media, en het blijvende mysterie rond een leider die zowel verafschuwd als vereerd werd.Lees ook het stuk Een ‘Surinaamse oplossing' voor Bouterse in De Groene Amsterdammer.Luister ook Bouta's laatste zet van Argos.Productie: Kees van den Bosch en Daan Sanders.Zie het privacybeleid op https://art19.com/privacy en de privacyverklaring van Californië op https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Tyrone suggested LeBron James's scoring title, while Ricky pointed to Tom Brady's record of throwing touchdowns to 98 different receivers. Sylvana mentioned Cy Young's impressive win record of 511. (20:46-32:51) Our discussion then shifts to active players who might have the potential to surpass some of these seemingly unbreakable records. One listener proposed that Jalen Hurts could break Cam Newton's rushing touchdown record. (33:51-45:33) The weekend series against the Dodgers was a challenge, yet the Phillies emerged victorious.

Andrew expresses his contrasting views on the benefit of the doubt versus blind faith regarding Eagles General Manager Howie Roseman. (12:58-23:10) Today's question focuses on identifying the best bench players in Philadelphia since the year 2000. Andrew chose Corey Graham, while Tyrone opted for Aaron McKie. (23:10-34:37) Sylvana shared her favorite bench player, ultimately selecting Darren Sproles. Boston Scott and Corey Clement also emerged as key contributors from the bench. (34:37-46:51) Tyrone addresses a critic who disagreed with his opinion on Dallas Goedert, but the real concern lies in the fact that Tyrone's tweet was relatively mild and did not warrant such an extreme reaction.

Tyrone, Ricky and Sylvana weigh in. Question of the Day: “Actor Val Kilmer has unfortunately passed away at the age of 65. He is best known for his role as Iceman in Top Gun (in a great career).

The Word of the Day is Scenario (0:00-7:35) Eagles owner Jeffery Lurie is scheduled to hold a press conference today amid the ongoing League Meetings this week. There is curiosity surrounding his future objectives for the Eagles, especially following their Super Bowl victory and his recent sale of a portion of the team. Additionally, we will examine the rule changes set to be implemented in the upcoming season, which will impact Overtime, Replay Assist, and Kickoff procedures. (7:35-16:26) The Tush Push remains a contentious tactic within the league, with various teams advocating for its prohibition. Among the supporters of this play are the Chargers, Cardinals, and Texans. In related developments, the upcoming season will feature three games on Christmas, leading Ricky to remark that the NFL operates like an ATM. (16:26 -28:14) The Atlanta Braves are currently facing significant challenges, with several key players sidelined due to injuries and a major free agent acquisition suspended for 80 games due to performance-enhancing drug violations. Consequently, the Philadelphia Phillies must capitalize on this opportunity while the Braves are struggling. (28:14-37:47) Sylvana is diligent about maintaining her health and regularly tracks her steps. Notably, she wears her Apple Watch on her ankle, convinced that it provides a more accurate step count. This unusual choice has led Tyrone and Ricky to jokingly speculate that she might be under house arrest.

The Word of the Day is Perspective (0:00-10:12) We respond to the recent audio from Cowboys owner Jerry Jones during the league meetings, where he asserted that agents are inconsequential and claimed he is the most qualified individual to negotiate contracts for his players. (10:12-17:31) Today's question revolves around the underlying motives behind the NFL's desire to ban the Tush Push. Tyrone suggests that the commissioner is influenced by those lacking courage, leading to the decision to eliminate the play. In contrast, Ricky argues that this move serves as an escape for teams unable to execute or defend against the play effectively. (17:31-29:16) The Flyers have achieved three consecutive victories following the dismissal of their head coach, showcasing a renewed energy and technique that may contribute to their success on the ice. (29:16-42:50) Sylvana's mother assigned her a task, but she struggled to begin the assignment due to uncertainty about how to initiate it.

Word of the Day: Fairness (0:00-8:40) Tyrone and Andrew push back on a possible NFL ban on the infamous tush push that the Eagles have found tremendous success with, especially in their historic Super Bowl run this past season. (8:45-16:20) Andrew says banning the tush push effectively “cheapens” the quality of the game. Do you like Eagles chants at Phillies/Sixers/Flyers games? (16:25-27:50) Is the tush push a safety concern? Tyrone, Andrew and Sylvana don’t think so. There have been ZERO players to have gotten hurt from the tush push. (27:57-37:30) The tush push is under attack. Will the league actually get enough votes to ban it? Andrew and Tyrone discuss. Eagles chants at Phillies games are too much?

Word of the Day: Fairness (0:00-13:10) Trotter Jr or Brown? Tyrone, Andrew and Sylvana discuss players that may have the chance to step up this season for the Eagles. Fans want to ban the tush push, but don’t actually understand how it works. (13:20-20:40) Tyrone thinks TOO many Eagles chants at Citizens Bank Park and opposing team baseball stadiums. Flyers players have a ton of freedom now. (20:50-32:10) Andrew reacts to NFL draft scenarios for the Eagles from Dave Zangaro on X/Twitter; likes Malachi Starks for the Birds at #32. (32:20-42:30) Fans doing Eagles chants at Phillies games is overkill and disrespectful. Are you a fan of The Wave during sports games?

Word of the Day: Irrational (0:00-12:36) Tyrone thinks Bryce Harper is poised to have a great year; he wants to be talked about. Can Harper get to 40 HRs this season? (12:48-22:05) Tyrone, Ricky and Sylvana react to the Flyers benching key players as reasoning for Tortorella firing. The Flyers did not handle this as well as they should have or could have. (22:10-32:25) Tyrone and Ricky discuss behind the scenes of the Tortorella departure and what REALLY went into him being let go by the Flyers. (32:35-41:25) Return to the Twitter poll; Jordan Romano exceeds all expectations. Howie Roseman and his journeys to the bargain bin in free agency.

The word of the Day is Desperation (0:00-11:56) The Phillies did not engage in any significant acquisitions during the recent offseason, leading to a sense of stagnation among fans despite the team's status as a projected World Series contender. (11:56-19:58) Theirs’s questions of whether Dave Dombrowski understands the implications of not pursuing a major signing, particularly as the lineup still lacks a powerful right-handed hitter. (19:58-30:38) In the realm of horror cinema, one might wonder if there exists a character that could be confidently confronted without succumbing to them. Tyrone expresses confidence in his ability to take on Jason, while Ricky and Sylvana believe they could successfully defeat Chucky. (30:38-39:31) Ray Dunne has written the odds of the Fanatic employees who are competing in the basketball game called knockout. Sylvana wants to know if she has higher odds than Ricky, but she will have to wait until tomorrow to see the odds.

The word of the Day is Desperation (0:00-13:30) The recent signing of relief pitcher Carlos Hernandez by the Phillies, known for his impressive velocity, has sparked reactions reminiscent of the team's acquisition of Jose Alvarado. Additionally, we discuss a computer-generated projection of statistics for both hitters and pitchers. (13:30-21:11) For the Question of the Day, we asked which Phillie has the most pressure on them this season. Tyrone and Sylvana agree that Trea Turner has the most pressure, while Ricky said Dave Dombrowski. (21:11-31:56) While some claim that this year's Phillies team is markedly different, the reality is that little has changed since their appearance in the 2022 World Series, contributing to the current lack of excitement surrounding the team. (31:56-45:15) In contrast, the Eagles' Super Bowl victory affords them a degree of leniency, a privilege not extended to the other Philadelphia sports teams, which face heightened scrutiny.

Word of the Day: Star (0:00-9:40) Tyrone and Andrew ask what it takes to be a star? What makes a player a STAR? Is Trea Turner a star? Is Cooper DeJean a star? (9:45-18:40) The Flyers NEED stars on their roster. If they don’t acquire stars, this rebuild will be for nothing. Sylvana says being a star requires having that talent and making your team AUTOMATICALLY better with you on the floor than without you; you know their name even if you don’t watch the team. (18:45-29:15) Trea Turner is on the hot seat. Tyrone and Andrew challenge Turner to tap into his stardom; the anatomy of a star. (29:25-37:20) Tyrone says baseball is the most 1 on 1 sport of any sports; pitcher vs hitter.

(19:30-29:01) Martians have the beam pointed at earth: who is the greatest athlete ever? Wrong answer: the planet is destroyed. (29:07-41:50) Scott Lauber joins the show to discuss the Phillies, just 6 days away from opening day.
