Pulitzer Prize-winning New York Times columnist Tom Friedman discusses the geopolitics at play in the AI revolution, including President Trump's upcoming meeting with President Xi. Friedman is calling for collaboration–even an arms deal, of sorts–between the two nations on the topic of artificial intelligence. Plus, CNBC's Dan Murphy is in Dubai reporting on the war in Iran, and Anthropic could be nearing a valuation larger than OpenAI's.

In Part 2 of “Three Dads,” we go deep—and we mean emotional, raw, and wildly eye-opening with Moke Coffey, Mark Ebinger and Tom Friedman. We dive straight into the complexities of modern family dynamics, identity, and love, unpacking what it really means to co-parent in a nontraditional household. From therapy revelations to navigating boundaries with exes, we get brutally honest about the emotional weight behind wearing a wedding ring post-divorce—and whether it's about love, identity, or holding onto something deeper. We challenge everything—from relationship expectations to what it means to move forward—and yes, we don't hold back. Things get spicy when we question dating with a ring still on, and even spicier when we share our own jaw-dropping personal story involving an ex (yes… being run over. Then the conversation turns beautiful as we talk about expanding their family—with a new baby possibly on the way—and what it means to raise kids in a three-dad household filled with love, chaos, and evolution. We get emotional talking about legacy, parenting, and the power of choosing your family.

Welcome to Last Call, a look at the biggest stories Jim and Greg covered over the past week on the 3 Martini Lunch. This week, Jim and Greg break down two high-profile congressional resignations, the radical views of popular lefty podcaster and influencer Hasan Piker, New York Times columnist Tom Friedman's baffling stance on the Iran war, and some badly needed judicial wisdom from Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas.First, they welcome the resignations of Caiifornia Rep. Eric Swalwell and Texas Rep. Tony Gonzales. Swalwell is the Democrat who was running for governor until sexual assault and other allegations forced him out of the race.

Piker is a prominent voice on the left and some candidates have asked him to campaign with them. You'll also learn who Piker sees as the biggest terrorist organization in the world.Then they throw up their hands as longtime New York Times columnist Tom Friedman says he's conflicted over who he wants to win the Iran war. We'll explain the absurd reasons for his conundrum and just how deranged that thinking is.Finally, after all of that bad news, Greg and Thursday guest host and former Virginia Attorney General Ken Cuccinelli close with some refreshing wisdom from Justice Thomas about the proper role of judges.Please visit our great sponsors:Schedule a free gold strategy session with Noble Gold.

Dean Karayanis breaks down a whirlwind Monday in global politics. From the shifting sands of the Middle East to Vitor Orban's loss in Hungary, Dean cuts through the "access media" noise to find the truth behind the headlines. The Iran Ultimatum: Dean analyzes President Trump's bold Sunday declaration of a naval blockade on the Strait of Hormuz. He explores why the media's World War III predictions keep falling flat and examines the reality of Iran's "extortion tolls" on international shipping. A look at the shocking election results in Hungary. Dean discusses what the end of the 16-year "strongman" rule means for American conservatives who rely on endorsements rather than local campaigning, and expresses mock surprise that a supposed “authoritarian” conceded. The Battle for History: Addressing his latest column in the New York Sun, Dean says Al Sharpton's call for black Americans to boycott the America 250 celebrations erases the service of thousands of Black patriots like Crispus Attucks — the first man killed in the American Revolution. The "America First" Democrat: Why is Senator John Fetterman the only prominent Democrat willing to root for American interests against Iran? Dean compares Fetterman's "civilization over chaos" stance with the "deranged" defeatism of New York Times columnist Tom Friedman. Economic Realities: Why are egg prices collapsing, and why isn't the media giving the current administration a shred of credit for market recovery?
Tom Friedman just admitted on camera he's "torn" on defeating Iran — because he's terrified Donald Trump and Benjamin Netanyahu might get the credit.

There is a truce in the war with Iran that the public has yet to see in writing, the details of which both sides are disputing, right down to whether all the parties have to cease all their firing. Beirut suffered heavy damage today, as Israel launched what its military officials called the largest coordinated strike on Lebanon since the war began. Plus, Anthropic, the company behind the AI chatbot Claude, is declining to release its latest model to the general public out of concern over what it's capable of doing in the wrong hands. Instead, it's letting several top tech companies test it first. New York Times columnist Tom Friedman joins us to talk about what this new step in AI means for the world and the darker side of its new capabilities. Learn more about your ad choices.

The threat of war with Venezuela, Ukraine on the precipice, a possible counter-revolution in Iran, China eying an invasion of Taiwan and a U.S. president with a radical new understanding of America's role in the world. Moderator Jeffrey Goldberg and Tom Friedman of The New York Times discuss how 2026 could be a dangerous year.
Did 2025 mark the formal end of the neoliberal age? Gary Gerstle, author of The Rise and Fall of the Neoliberal Order, has already written neoliberalism's official obituary, so he's quite comfortable with a post neoliberal world. But Trump 2.0, Gerstle suggests, marks the formal beginning of America's place in this new cracked, jagged and leaderless world. What most defines it, Gerstle suggests, is its absence of “flatness” - Tom Friedman's term to describe a world simultaneously “flat” and yet dominated by singularly American ideas, economics and power. The ironic thing about Trump 2.0 is that, for all his bluster, his America is just another player in this post Pax Americana economic and political system. His “place in the history books is secure,” Gerstle says about Trump. But it may not exactly be the place that the MAGA leader wants to be. Keen On America is a reader-supported publication.

My colleague Tom Friedman thinks we're screwed.That's the first thing he told me when recounting his recent trip to China. It's not just because of the trade war that President Trump is escalating right now. Friedman believes the whole Washington consensus on China — that the country is a hostile adversary — is dangerous and based on an outdated understanding of what China now is. He saw how China's manufacturing and technology have advanced so far that in many ways it now surpasses the United States'.In this conversation, Friedman walks me through the advancements he saw in some of the most critical fields of the coming decades — including A.I., E.V.s and clean energy. We discuss why he sees the current consensus as dangerous, what a different path might look like and what the United States should do to develop its domestic manufacturing so that we don't “get steamrolled.”This episode contains strong language.Mentioned:“I Just Saw the Future.

This is the last and amongst the liveliest of my interviews at Munich's DLD Conference this year. An old friend who has appeared on KEEN ON several times before, Andrew McAfee is a MIT professor who co-wrote the 2014 classic The Second Machine Age. In our conversation, celebrating the 20th anniversary of the DLD Conference, McAfee reflects on the technological changes of the past 20 years,. He acknowledges that while he accurately predicted the broad trajectory of technological advancement, he underestimated AI's capabilities in areas like language processing and creative tasks. McAfee discusses the emergence of deep learning around 2012 and its evolution into today's generative AI. While maintaining overall optimism about technology's impact, he expresses concern about increasing social polarization and anxiety, particularly related to social media use, though he notes these trends actually preceded current technology. On economic matters, McAfee challenges the notion that tech innovation is stagnating, pointing to newcomers like Nvidia and OpenAI as evidence of continued inventive dynamism. He discusses Europe's technological lag behind the United States, citing regulatory challenges like GDPR as potential factors. Regarding climate change, McAfee believes technological solutions, particularly nuclear fusion, could address environmental challenges, though he acknowledges the severity of the crisis. He concludes by warning how traditional companies must adapt to survive in an era of rapid technological change, particularly facing competition from more agile, tech-savvy competitors.Andrew McAfee (@amcafee) is a Principal Research Scientist at the MIT Sloan School of Management, co-founder and co-director of MIT's Initiative on the Digital Economy, and the inaugural Visiting Fellow at the Technology and Society organization at Google. He studies how technological progress changes the world. His next book, The Geek Way, will be published by Little, Brown in 2023. His previous books include More from Less and, with Erik Brynjolfsson, The Second Machine Age. McAfee has written for publications including Foreign Affairs, Harvard Business Review, The Economist, The Wall Street Journal, and The New York Times. He's talked about his work on CNN and 60 Minutes, at the World Economic Forum, TED, and the Aspen Ideas Festival, with Tom Friedman and Fareed Zakaria, and in front of many international and domestic audiences. He's also advised many of the world's largest corporations and organizations ranging from the IMF to the Boston Red Sox to the US Intelligence Community. McAfee and his frequent coauthor Erik Brynjolfsson are othe nly people named to both the Thinkers50 list of the world's top management thinkers and the Politico 50 group of people transforming American politics.Named as one of the "100 most connected men" by GQ magazine, Andrew Keen is amongst the world's best known broadcasters and commentators. In addition to presenting KEEN ON, he is the host of the long-running How To Fix Democracy show. He is also the author of four prescient books about digital technology: CULT OF THE AMATEUR, DIGITAL VERTIGO, THE INTERNET IS NOT THE ANSWER and HOW TO FIX THE FUTURE.

Send me a messageIn this week's episode of the Climate Confident podcast, I'm joined by Lew Blaustein, founder and CEO of EcoAthletes, an organisation dedicated to inspiring athletes to lead the charge on climate action. We delve into Lew's fascinating career pivot, from sports marketing to environmental advocacy, sparked by the events of 9/11 and a pivotal Tom Friedman article on energy dependence and global conflict.Lew shares the unique influence athletes hold in shaping public opinion and how EcoAthletes works to empower them, providing the tools and resources needed to overcome challenges like misinformation, fear of backlash, and the "too sciency" perception around climate change. We discuss how athletes have led on social issues in the past – from civil rights to gender equality – and how they can bring that same drive to the climate crisis.A standout topic is the EcoAthletes Collegiate Cup, where student athletes compete to reduce methane emissions by converting exercise into environmental currency, proving that sports and sustainability can go hand in hand. Lew also highlights Vote Climate, a campaign encouraging U.S. voters to make climate a priority in elections.Whether you're a climate advocate or just curious about the intersection of sports and sustainability, this episode offers a practical look at how athletes can become powerful agents of change. Listen in to explore how passion, competition, and leadership on the field can translate into meaningful climate action.Tune in and join the conversation!BTW - I have to apologise for the quality of my audio in this episode.

Freddie deBoer has a post on what he calls “the temporal Copernican principle.” He argues we shouldn't expect a singularity, apocalypse, or any other crazy event in our lifetimes. Discussing celebrity transhumanist Yuval Harari, he writes: What I want to say to people like Yuval Harari is this. The modern human species is about 250,000 years old, give or take 50,000 years depending on who you ask. Let's hope that it keeps going for awhile - we'll be conservative and say 50,000 more years of human life. So let's just throw out 300,000 years as the span of human existence, even though it could easily be 500,000 or a million or more. Harari's lifespan, if he's lucky, will probably top out at about 100 years. So: what are the odds that Harari's lifespan overlaps with the most important period in human history, as he believes, given those numbers? That it overlaps with a particularly important period of human history at all? Even if we take the conservative estimate for the length of human existence of 300,000 years, that means Harari's likely lifespan is only about .33% of the entirety of human existence. Isn't assuming that this .33% is somehow particularly special a very bad assumption, just from the basis of probability? And shouldn't we be even more skeptical given that our basic psychology gives us every reason to overestimate the importance of our own time? (I think there might be a math error here - 100 years out of 300,000 is 0.033%, not 0.33% - but this isn't my main objection.) He then condemns a wide range of people, including me, for failing to understand this: Some people who routinely violate the Temporal Copernican Principle include Harari, Eliezer Yudkowsky, Sam Altman, Francis Fukuyama, Elon Musk, Clay Shirky, Tyler Cowen, Matt Yglesias, Tom Friedman, Scott Alexander, every tech company CEO, Ray Kurzweil, Robin Hanson, and many many more. I think they should ask themselves how much of their understanding of the future ultimately stems from a deep-seated need to believe that their times are important because they think they themselves are important, or want to be. I deny misunderstanding this. Freddie is wrong. https://www.astralcodexten.com/p/contra-deboer-on-temporal-copernicanism

On our nation's 248th birthday, Joe Biden faces the wrath of a thousand pundits. The whole world watched the elected leader of the world's oldest republic befogged, slack-jawed, and mentally vacant in a debate he had to win. A recent poll from CBS showed that after Biden's performance last week, 72 percent of registered voters believed the man lacked the cognitive ability to be president. Even his closest friends and sycophants are pleading for the old man to hang it up. The New York Times editorial board. Former advisers to Barack Obama. Columnist and Biden's personal friend, Tom Friedman, said he wept in a hotel room in Portugal while watching the debate. They've seen enough. Joe Biden, for the good of your country, step down. And yet, Biden's White House is shrugging it off. It was just a debate, they tell us. Don't let 90 minutes define years of accomplishments. But it was not just a debate. It was indelible and undeniable proof that the leader of the free world lacks the stamina and acuity to do the job for four more months, let alone four more years. As Biden weighs his decision, he may well think back to when he was a young man and then-president Lyndon Baines Johnson found himself in a similar position. Johnson was losing the country, and in the middle of the primary he decided to bow out. Today, Free Press writer Eli Lake hosts a special episode about what happened in 1968 when President Johnson decided he was not fit for reapplying for his job. He listened to his critics and backed away from the White House, allowing the Democrats an opportunity to stage an open convention to choose their next candidate for the presidency. But why did the party want him gone so badly? And how did this seismic decision work out? It's a tale of murder, war, and riots that culminated in the most explosive convention in the history of America. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
After months of the grandees in the Democratic party telling the public that Biden's age was nothing to worry about: the Global Orderer-in Chief has been shown to have no clothes and his adult diapers were not changed prior to his appearing before an audience of tens of millions. As Mega-Orderers know, Jason is prone to melodrama, but in this instance the Sky Really Is Falling! June 27, 2024 may go down there as one of those dates like Dec 7, 1941 and June 23, 2016: Dates that will live on in infamy. Biden's debate performance truly has massive implications for global order: it will embolden Pyongyang, Beijing, Tehran, and Moscow; it creates a dangerous global vacuum with an absence of orderers for many months until the dust settles from the US election; and it leaves the democratic party with an urgent choice how to choreography the process of substituting Biden out for a younger candidate. To counterbalance Jason's doom and gloom, he is joined by the ever up beat Glaswegian Jane Kinninmont who presents the view on Biden from the European capitals.

Yet alongside these doom loops, somewhat anomalously, something good is happening: the transition away from fossil fuels to clean, carbon-free energy is underway, and it is accelerating every day. That transition has become an enormous, sprawling meta-story. It spans the entire economy, from heavy industry to tech to retail. It's unfolding on every level of government, from local zoning boards to the federal government to international treaties. It involves technology, politics, policy, psychology, even philosophy. It's a lot to track. At Volts, I track it. I follow the news, read the trade publications and research reports, talk to the engineers and policy staffers, and think hard about the larger political and social context. Rather than the broad-and-shallow view offered by most publications, I sift through the flotsam for what matters and then go deep on it. The goal is not quantity of information but quality of understanding. I have been reading, writing, and thinking pretty intensely about this subject matter for over 15 years now. Most recently, from 2015 to 2020, I was with Vox, a news and culture publication for which I still occasionally write. Before that, I was with Grist, a publication focused on environmental news, where I was hired in 2004. Over those 15+ years I've written for other publications (like Outside) and appeared on a variety of TV shows, radio programs, and podcasts, like All In with Chris Hayes and On the Media and Pod Save America and Why Is This Happening? I've been quoted or cited by all kinds of fancy-pants people, from Al Gore to several US senators to pundits like Michelle Goldberg and Paul Krugman and Jon Favreau and Tom Friedman to media analysts like Margaret Sullivan and Jay Rosen to climate writers like Elizabeth Kolbert and Bill McKibben and David Wallace-Wells. As for my pre-professional life, here it is in one paragraph: I grew up in a small town in Tennessee, went to a small liberal arts college in another small town in Tennessee, and then, when I graduated, lit out west. I spent a while in Montana getting an MA in Philosophy (with a minor in snowboarding), then went to work on a PhD at the University of Alberta, in Edmonton (three hours north of Calgary, which is three hours north of the border). Edmonton was too cold and academic philosophy was too bleak, so in 1999 I bailed and lit out to Seattle. After a period of professional drift but personal joy (including a wife and a child), I stumbled into the Grist job by sheer luck in 2004. (I happened to see it the first time I ever visited Craigslist.) Been writing ever since. Now I live in Seattle with my wife, two teens, two dogs, and two cats.

Joe Biden tells an interviewer Israel should do a unilateral ceasefire for six to eight weeks.

We finally get around to our promised but delayed cage match about Ukraine and unanswered questions about January 6, and alas, all of Steve's attempts to cheer up Lucretia with the week's great news—the Hunter Biden indictment, the embarrassment of Ivy League presidents, Kevin McCarthy resigning, Trump winning Tom Friedman's vote—proved unavailing. Futile, even. Why Lucretia even trashed McDonald's, which is really fightin' words for John.But then we get down to business, with the bruising cage match. Steve did his best to play a "neutral" Sean Hannity, posing challenges to both John and Lucretia about both topics, but occasionally donning a Hershey's Kiss-sized tin foil hat on a couple of points. Score the jabs about roundhouse blows at home, and send in your point total in the comment threads.John and Lucretia were united on one topic, though: Both attacked Steve for his fondness for classic Genesis, which Steve discussed at length this week on Steve Gosney's Rumble channel here (or YouTube version here) if you have the proper tastes in "rock music that went to college," to quote Jody Bottum on prog rock. Natually, Steve takes out revenge with the exit music, with a fragment of a classic Genesis song that includes the fitting lyric, "Even academics, searching printed word. . ." Who can name that song without looking it up?Note: We haad a few technical glitches recording this episode, with some abrupt edits and incomplete thoughts in a couple places, but listeners should be able to make out the main threads.

Knesset correspondent Carrie Keller Lynn and legal reporter Jeremy Sharon join host Amanda Borschel-Dan in today's episode.

Keller-Lynn gives an overview of yesterday's Day of Resistance, in which over 70 protestors were arrested.

Join Jim and Greg as they breathe a sigh of relief that a rail workers strike is averted, although they're curious to see the terms of the agreement. They also sigh as Biden again claims costs are going down as he hails the announcement. They're also pleasantly surprised to see New York Times columnist Tom Friedman scolding the left to get serious about fossil fuel production as a way both to help Europeans in the face of Putin cutting off natural gas and for the U.S. to produce energy at levels that renewables cannot possibly match. Then they roll their eyes as the left freaks out over red state governors sending a few migrants to blue parts of the country but as no interest in dealing with the thousands of people crossing our southern border illegally every day. Finally, they remember former Independent Counsel Ken Starr and how the Democrats and the media turned him into a villain for investigating the unconscionable conduct of President Clinton.Please visit our great sponsors:Fast Growing Treeshttps://fastgrowingtrees.com/martiniOrder through October 15th and save 15%
