Well, I don't know. I've listened to all the commentary; I've listened to Nicola Willis. I'm absolutely perplexed. Stumped. I thought after all this time and having taken a lifelong interest in politics that I understood a wee bit about it. Turns out I know absolutely nothing, because if I was a National Party advisor, and let's face it, a lot of you think I am, but if I was a National Party advisor, I would not be saying to National, "look, you're languishing in the polls. You might have done some good work, you're not selling it well. We need a little something, something, something, something. I know! Let's take a big pet project of the last Labour Government and interfere with private property and manipulate the market and sell off supermarkets. And let's not sell off all supermarkets, not the Australian ones. Let's take the supermarkets owned by New Zealanders, good hard working young couples who go and live in small communities that Woolworths won't touch, and make them less profitable and make them charge less for the goods that they sell. How about that?" I am stumped that they thought this was a good idea and then even more stumped that whoever came up with the idea managed to sell it to the rest of them. Because I assume it's not a brain fart of Nicola Willis'. She's been on one ever since she came into government. She's been on the backs of the supermarkets. But for the love of all that's holy, this is an idea that goes against National's entire DNA. They're having the biggest identity crisis since Bruce Jenner became Caitlyn Jenner. It's an absolute head scratcher. However, Nicola Willis is adamant. This is what she told Mike Hosking this morning: "We believe in competitive enterprise and what the study after study has said about our supermarket sector is that it is a complete outlier internationally and that it is so consolidated it isn't operating like a normally competitive market. I want competitive, strong businesses innovating, offering variety, competing on price and the evidence I have received says that's not going to happen for so long as you have an effective duopoly. So this is not a normal market, there is evidence of market failure. Yes, this is an unusual step, but man oh man, we've got a problem here." Really? You know, it's a mixed up, jumbled up, shook up world in which we live. There are few things upon which you can rely. One of them is that National is the party of small government, minimal interference, a champion of small business owners. Now they're not. And the thing is it might all be for naught. They might be confusing and infuriating what voter base they have left for nothing. Dependent on the Commerce Commission, dependent on coalition partners, might be a Trojan horse. Okay, we'll leave the supermarkets, but we'll raise the age of Super to 68 – I don't know. As I say, I'm absolutely perplexed. We might be a percentage point higher in terms of grocery prices than other countries —to be fair, we have been a lot higher in recent times— but ask anyone in London or Sydney or Stockholm if they're paying too much for their groceries and they'll say, by crikey, yes we are. And although Australia and Canada and the UK among other countries have looked long and hard at their supermarket chains, none of them has taken the highly unusual step of breaking up privately owned supermarkets. It used to be that if you wanted the government to step in and try and fix things to make things a bit fairer, to protect and insulate you from the cruel vagaries of day to day life, you'd vote Labour or the Greens, you had a choice. If you wanted supermarkets broken up to create an artificial competition in the marketplace, you'd vote Labour or the Greens. And now look, you lucky, lucky things. What a choice. Labour, Greens or National. Who'd have thought. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

On this episode of Foley & Arledge: The Trojan Truth, former USC quarterback Shane Foley and Chris Arledge break down the Trojans' win over Louisiana and go to the film to examine what worked and what needs to improve. Jayden Maiava bounced back strong after a slow start, while the freshmen continue to make electric plays. The hosts also address costly penalties, defensive breakdowns, and how USC is physical but they are vulnerable too often on defense and needs to improve. They call it like they see it, offering candid, constructive analysis with championship expectations as USC heads into Big Ten play at Rutgers.Please review, rate and subscribe to the Peristyle Podcast on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Apple Podcasts⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ and ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Spotify⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠!Make sure you check out ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠USCFootball.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ for complete coverage of this USC Trojan football team.

Former conservative Adrienne Larkin teaches me how Gloria Steinem changed her life, from 1950s limits for women to second wave feminism, women's rights history, feminist movement history and the fight for gender equality. Then we connect it to 2026: Trump as a Trojan horse against women, Christian nationalism and the patriarchal backlash, Pete Hegseth and threats to women voting, and why Adrienne says don't get caught in stupid disputes. If you lived through second wave feminism or want to understand it honestly, this conversation is for you.

On this episode of the Peristyle Podcasts hosts Ryan Abraham and Coach Harvey Hyde are back together discussing the Trojans Saturday night victory over the Louisiana Ragin' Cajuns. After securing the shutout last week against Fresno State, USC's defense got leaky against UL, allowing 30 points including 10 in the first half. It was the first time this season that Lincoln Riley's squad faced a deficit (3-0 in the first quarter) and the first time Gary Patterson's side of the ball gave up any points in the first half.The guys breakdown what they saw from this Trojan football team, including some spectacular play from offensive freshmen like Trent Mosley and Mark Bowman, and how the defensive front seven guys need to cause more havoc to disrupt opposing quarterbacks. They also talk about the wild college football weekend with Oregon and Ohio State both losing and what it means for the Trojans as they head into conference play this weekend.

On this latest edition of Tunnel Vision USCFootball.com's, Ryan Abraham, RJ Abeytia and intern India Otto are back in studio talking about USC's matchup with the Louisiana Ragin' Cajuns. The Trojans finish off their season-opening homestand Saturday night in the Coliseum, taking on a 1-0 UL squad that beat up on Lamar in week one. Head coach Lincoln Riley had his team ready last Friday, shutting out the overmatched Fresno State Bulldogs. Now Riley and company will try and finish up the out of conference schedule on a high note before kicking off conference play next weekend.The crew takes a look at what their expectations are for this Trojan offense that has excelled in the passing game but has struggled at times in the run game. Defensively Gary Patterson pitched a shutout against Fresno State and he could get more help for the Louisiana game if Jahkeem Stewart and Braylan Shelby are able to return from injuries. USC special teams units made some mistakes in the first two games and Mike Ekeler will be looking to clean things up Saturday night in the Coliseum.This is the podcast version (audio only) of our Tunnel Vision episode.Please review, rate and subscribe to the Peristyle Podcast on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Apple Podcasts⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ and ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Spotify⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠!Make sure you check out ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠USCFootball.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ for complete coverage of this USC Trojan football team.

Send us Fan MailRhode Island Primary Results: An Affordability Referendum, Not Just an Anti-Incumbent WaveBill Bartholomew breaks down Rhode Island's primary results and argues the night was driven by one central issue: affordability. He connects the outcomes in the governor's race, Providence mayor's race, and local council contests to a broader rejection of leaders who seemed disconnected from the lived reality of rising housing costs, broken communication, and political inauthenticity.He also looks at how the Democratic Party has shifted, why progressives and anti-establishment candidates surged, and what the results may mean for the general election and the next generation of Rhode Island leadership.Key topicsThe night's three big takeaways: bad night for incumbents, great night for progressives, and a statewide referendum on the affordability crisisWhy Bill sees Helena Foulkes' win over Dan McKee as the culmination of a long political and messaging collapse around the Washington BridgeHow McKee's handling of the bridge crisis became a symbol of a broader disconnect between state government and everyday Rhode IslandersWhy Providence mayor Brett Smiley and other incumbents were overwhelmed by voters who wanted immediate action on rent and housingThe role of rent stabilization in Providence as a vehicle for much bigger frustration about housing costs, gaslighting, and feeling unheardHow local, hyper-specific issues like grocery store covenants, ward races, and neighborhood frustration added up into a bigger anti-incumbent shiftThe collapse of establishment-backed and Trojan horse conservative efforts in Democratic primaries, which Bill says failed because they lacked authenticityWhy Sabina Matos survived the lieutenant governor primary and how local issue work, like grocery access, may have matteredThe implications of the primary for the Republican side, including Ken Block, John Laughlin, and Victor MellerThe larger structural change in Rhode Island politics, from the old machine to a new, unsettled power landscapeTimestamps00:00 - The bottom line on Rhode Island primary night 00:59 - Why Bill waited to process the results before reacting 01:28 - Helena Foulkes' long runway back into politics 02:26 - The Washington Bridge as the defining issue for McKee 03:51 - Why this was a deliberate shift, not an accident 04:49 - Providence turnout and the impact of mobilized voting 05:45 - Affordability as the state's defining crisis 06:37 - Why the governor's race became impossible to win without a clearer strategy 08:12 - The communication failures that hurt McKee 09:36 - What the Republican field may or may not become 10:28 - Why Providence turnout signaled trouble for Smiley 11:20 - Rent control as a symptom of a much larger housing crisis 13:02 - Local council losses and the punishment of anti-rent vote behavior 14:19 - Why the conservative primary strategy collapsed 15:29 - Feeling gaslit about housing, education, energy, and infrastructure 16:35 - “Get small” and the rise of local organizing 17:21 - Kim Ahern's win and the role of coalition strength 18:11 - The lieutenant governor race and why Sabina Matos survived 20:02 - Why John Laughlin may make the LG race more competitive, but not simple 21:32 - Grocery store covenants and hyperlocal issue politics 22:47 - The Morales victory party and the sense of collective rejection 23:57 - Why the Providence rent fight became a referendum on being heard 24:41 - What should have happened between the city and mayor's office 25:47 - Why the ordinance details mattered less than the feeling of exclusion 27:45 - Why the “socialism” framing misses the actual story 29:03 - Rhode Island's old political machine and what replaced it 30:37 - Victor Meller's dominant showing in CD2 32:07 - Age, leadership, and who actually runs the world now 33:34 - Why voters rejected fake, prepackaged politics 35:13 - The election as a populist correction to out-of-touch leadership 36:21 - Rent increases, housing pressure, and the lack of real debate 37:42 - What losing candidates should reflect on now 39:28 - Coalition shifts across races 40:02 - The post-machine political universe in Rhode Island 41:06 - Why this was also a generational referendum Support the showFollow Bill on Instagram and YouTube

On this latest edition of Tunnel Vision USCFootball.com's, Ryan Abraham, RJ Abeytia and Ahmad Akkaoui are back in studio breaking down what they saw Friday night in the Coliseum, with USC taking down Fresno State 39-0 in dominating fashion. Head coach Lincoln Riley had his troops ready, with the team looking much better Friday night in the Coliseum than we saw just six days earlier in the opener against San Jose State. The guys take a look at how the team performed in all three phases of the game, from Jayden Maiava's extremely efficient effort to new defensive coordinator Gary Patterson pitching his first shutout as a Trojan.While the Trojans did dominate the game from start to finish, there were still areas where the Men of Troy could improve. The running game got off to a slow start and that will need to get going for this team to reach its lofty goals. Defensively there are still more opportunities for plays to be made in passing coverage and there were actually a couple of penalties on special teams that Mike Ekeler is likely unhappy with.This is the podcast version (audio only) of our Tunnel Vision episode.Please review, rate and subscribe to the Peristyle Podcast on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Apple Podcasts⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ and ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Spotify⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠!Make sure you check out ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠USCFootball.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ for complete coverage of this USC Trojan football team.

On Friday's Mark Levin Show, postpartum trauma and mental-health struggles many women experience are real, along with flaws in the healthcare system and medication, yet most mothers do not execute their children as Lindsay Clancy did. At a minimum manslaughter would have been appropriate rather than the near-acquittal that 11 of 12 jurors favored. After a long trial and deliberations the case ended in mistrial when one hero male juror refused to acquit; the defense has since attacked that juror, which is outrageous. Also, the Democrats are always focusing on Israel and Bejamin Netanyahu—a small elected ally that does not seek to kill Americans or sponsor terrorism—with the lack of attention to actual enemies such as Saudi Arabia, Qatar's role in 9/11, Egypt as home of the Muslim Brotherhood, and other Islamist dictatorships that have killed U.S. citizens. The claims of genocide and starvation in Gaza have been repeatedly disproven even by hostile international bodies including the UN, with children now described as well-nourished, yet podcasters have neither retracted nor apologized for the repeated lies. Later, the jobs report cited a record number of jobs created—nearly three times what experts predicted—with manufacturing adding 16,000 positions last month and standing 58,000 above its December low, driven in part by demand for data-center equipment plus investments in drug manufacturing, defense production, and semiconductor plants. Data centers offer a massive upside for states, counties, and towns. The President is fully committed and ahead of the curve, matching or exceeding efforts by China, Israel, and India. Sen Bernie Sanders seeks a nationwide ban, attacking the capitalism that produces these jobs because it undercuts his Marxist ideology. Finally, Rep Byron Donalds calls in with an update on his campaign for Governor of Florida.  There is a lot of energy in Florida, but the outcome in 60 days depends on voters turning out to keep the free state of Florida under Republican control. Donalds explains that his opponent David Jolly is a Trojan horse for Democrat socialists in the mold of Abigail Spanberger, who stayed quiet on the trail then governed as a radical.

On this latest edition of Tunnel Vision USCFootball.com's Ryan Abraham, RJ Abeytia, and intern India Otto are back in studio talking about USC's quick turnaround from the week zero season opening win against San Jose State to a Friday night Coliseum showdown against Fresno State. The Bulldogs, led by former USC linebackers coach and two-time FCS national championship winning head coach Matt Entz, will be looking to pull the upset against this Lincoln Riley squad. Fresno State is big up front and plays a tough, gritty brand of football that should put these Trojans to the test, especially after a short week to prepare.The crew takes a look at what they are expecting out of this Trojan squad that would love to forget the fourth quarter effort from the SJSU game and what they know about this Bulldog team that went 9-4 last season. It is also the first chance for USC to play a Pac-12 opponent as a member of the Big Ten and of course this is the first ever game for the Bulldogs as a member of their new conference.This is the podcast version (audio only) of our Tunnel Vision episode.Please review, rate and subscribe to the Peristyle Podcast on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Apple Podcasts⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ and ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Spotify⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠!Make sure you check out ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠USCFootball.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ for complete coverage of this USC Trojan football team.

Discover Lockie's Work here: www.emotionalhorsemanship.com We come to horses thinking we're going to learn about horses. Then the horse becomes a Trojan horse. Through the simple, practical business of trying to understand another animal, we can find ourselves questioning much bigger things. How we relate to the land. What we consider intelligent. Where we believe consciousness resides. What illness means. What a body is. What it means to belong to an ecosystem rather than simply live on top of one. In this episode of Horse First, Lockie Phillips is joined by writer, poet and ecological thinker Sophie Strand for a conversation that wanders far beyond the boundaries of conventional horsemanship. Sophie writes at the intersection of ecology, mythology, spirituality, storytelling, illness and the more-than-human world. Her work asks us to reconsider the deeply human habit of placing ourselves at the centre of the story. And horses offer an extraordinary place to begin. For many of us, the horse is one of the first large, powerful, unmistakably other creatures with whom we attempt to build a genuine relationship. We cannot completely control that encounter. We cannot know exactly what the horse experiences. We have to pay attention to another nervous system, another body, another set of priorities, another way of perceiving the world. ABOUT SOPHIE STRAND Sophie Strand is a writer and poet whose work explores ecology, mythology, spirituality, embodiment and the more-than-human world. She is the author of The Flowering Wand: Rewilding the Sacred Masculine, The Madonna Secret, and The Body Is a Doorway.

Nejprve musel voličům vysvětlovat, proč se jeho strana podílí na historicky druhém nejvyšším schodku státního rozpočtu a na konci týdne pak žehlil skutečnost, že s nejvyšší pravděpodobností naletěl, když přišel na rozhovor s převlečenými aktivisty. Opravdu nevěděl, že nemluví s Thomasem Pauknerem? Jak moc mluvili Motoristé do rozpočtu a chtějí do něj vůbec mluvit?

On this episode of the Peristyle Podcasts hosts Ryan Abraham and Coach Harvey Hyde are back together discussing the Trojans finally kicking off the 2026 college football season with a 42-26 victory over San Jose State. USC held a 28-0 lead at halftime and even though it was 35-3 going into the fourth quarter, getting outscored 23-7 in the final frame left some Trojan fans with a bad taste in their collective mouths. Coach Hyde gives his thoughts on the Trojans fast start and sputter to the finish and what that could mean for the Men of Troy when the season gets later and the schedule gets tougher.Coach Hyde also addresses the sparce Coliseum crowd on what turned out to be a miserably hot and humid afternoon in Los Angeles, what impressed him the most about all of the freshmen that played in the game, his initial thoughts on how Gary Patterson did in his first game at defensive coordinator and lots more.Coach Harvey Hyde has been part of the Peristyle Podcast since 2008 and in the USC football world he is an expert on X's and O's, personnel, coaching philosophies and recruiting.Please follow Coach Hyde on X, Facebook and Instagram at ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@CoachHarveyHyde⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ or go to his website ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠HarveyHyde.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ for all his his content, including Vegas & Southern California radio shows.Please review, rate and subscribe to the Peristyle Podcast on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Apple Podcasts⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ and ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Spotify⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠!Make sure you check out ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠USCFootball.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ for complete coverage of this USC Trojan football team.

This Policy Pulse episode breaks down three major employment law developments HR leaders need on their radar right now: a Supreme Court ruling that changes how federal agencies operate, an update on the Workday AI discrimination lawsuit, and a new Maryland law restricting mandatory workplace meetings.Traci and Bryan dig into what each of these means for how you operate day to day, and why "wait and see" isn't always the wrong move.In this episode:The Supreme Court just overturned a hundred year old precedent, and it changes who controls the NLRB and EEOCWhy HR leaders should brace for more whiplash every time a new president takes officeAn update on the Workday AI hiring lawsuit, and why the EEOC backing off doesn't mean you're in the clearThe specific employer mistake that can trigger a bias claim even without ever asking about disabilityWhy state level enforcement might matter more than federal enforcement going forwardMaryland's new law banning mandatory political and anti-union meetings, and why there's no small employer exceptionThe real reason this law is being called a Trojan horse for union bustingWhy having someone dedicated to regional compliance is becoming less of a luxury and more of a necessityGot thoughts or questions on this episode?

Fox Sports' lead College Football analyst Joel Klatt reacts to the first games of the college football season as Week Zero officially kicked off the year. He begins by reacting to #14 USC's 16-point win over San Jose State and dives into whether Trojan fans should be excited or concerned with what they saw from the Trojans – and also gives his thoughts on the low fan attendance at the Coliseum for the opener. Klatt also discusses Bill Belichick's North Carolina team pulling off the upset of TCU and whether we may have jumped to a conclusion on the Belichick era in Chapel Hill too early. Klatt shouts out Virginia for their blowout win and evaluates their potential to be this year's Indiana in the ACC. Klatt also reacts to Memphis' upset win over UNLV and it's ramifications on the Group of 6 Playoff chase. He discusses Florida State's lackluster win and explains why FSU is not the power they once were and how things could be about to go off the rails in Tallahassee.Klatt wraps the show up by breaking down the latest eligibility issue in the sport as NFL players try to come back for one more year of college football, explaining how we got into this mess and where he stands on it – while pointing out a particular group that nobody's talking about that is being negatively impacted as a result.

Matt and Jason sat down with independent broadcaster and liberty activist Shannon Joy for a powerful conversation about ideological consistency and the cost of telling the truth. Utilizing her background in advertising and media, Shannon built a highly successful syndicated radio show, only to face severe backlash and deplatforming when she refused to capitulate to the MAGA movement. Recognizing Donald Trump as a Trojan horse for establishment interests from day one, she charted her own course. She overcame corporate rug pulls to build an independent media network that reaches a million listeners a month and recently ran for Lieutenant Governor of New York alongside Larry Sharpe to challenge and expose the fraudulent political apparatus. The conversation breaks down the illusion of political saviors and the reality of the bipartisan corporate-state nexus. The discussion explores how institutional capital is funding a rapid expansion of the surveillance state, turning everyday public utilities—like municipal streetlights—into high-speed, unconstitutional tracking nodes via Axon light posts and Flock cameras. Beyond the physical dragnet, the dialogue uncovers the insidious nature of "signature reduction," a government strategy deploying private fronts and civilian operations to manipulate local communities and social media narratives. It is a stark warning about the technocratic panopticon being built in our backyards under the guise of public safety.   The ultimate defense against a digitized, omnipresent surveillance state is hyper-localization and parallel institutions. The episode concludes with a deep dive into actionable countermeasures, emphasizing that human "relationships of trust" will soon become the most valuable commodity we possess. By actively adopting privacy-focused technologies, utilizing physical cash and precious metals, and intentionally building local supply chains, individuals can effectively starve the uniparty apparatus. The true white pill is a fearless return to localized human connection—rendering the corporate-state dragnet obsolete through unyielding, decentralized non-compliance.

Salesforce and Anthropic launch Claudeforce as Marc Benioff and Dario Amodei explain the collaboration together on CNBC, AWS commits to 2 million more NVIDIA GPUs on top of its GTC pledge, plus six new earnings this week from NVIDIA, Salesforce, Synopsys, HP, Everpure, and Marvell test every bear thesis on AI infrastructure and software at once. Patrick Moorhead and Daniel Newman also cover Hot Chips 2026, the NVIDIA-Hugging Face acquisition rumor, and debate whether Anthropic's SaaS reassurances hold up on Ep. 317 of The Six Five Pod. The handpicked topics for this week are: Claudeforce Turns Salesforce Into Anthropic's Enterprise Front End. Salesforce and Anthropic launched Claudeforce, positioning Claude as the interface across roughly 27 Salesforce services while Anthropic supplies the underlying AI engine. Marc Benioff and Dario Amodei appeared together on CNBC to make the case for the partnership, and both stocks rallied on the news. Moorhead flags one open question: how Anthropic protects Salesforce customer data without collecting the usage traces that AI systems typically retain. (The Decode) AWS Adds 2 Million NVIDIA GPUs on Top of Its GTC Commitment. AWS committed to another 2 million NVIDIA GPUs, layered onto the 1 million it pledged at GTC five months earlier, alongside its own Trainium and Graviton silicon build-out. Moorhead estimates the deal at 6 to 7 gigawatts and $80 billion to $120 billion in NVIDIA revenue, and reads the pairing of NVIDIA's Vera CPU with Graviton as evidence that agentic workloads need capabilities Amazon's own silicon doesn't yet cover. The commitment reinforces Moorhead's argument that wafer, packaging, and memory supply set the ceiling on AI infrastructure buildout, regardless of how many custom silicon projects come online. (The Decode) Hot Chips 2026 Draws Mainstream Attention as Custom and Merchant Silicon Both Scale. What was once an academic gathering turned into a press and social media event, with OpenAI's Jalapeño inference chip drawing the most attention for its bandwidth-heavy first-generation performance. IBM and Arm detailed a joint development agreement enabling IBM Z mainframes to run Arm code natively at sub-nanosecond switching latency, and AMD showed a full Helios rack while Arm walked through its AGI chip architecture. Moorhead notes that Jalapeño almost certainly relied on Synopsys or Cadence EDA tools rather than in-house design tooling. (The Decode) The NVIDIA-Hugging Face Acquisition Rumor Raises the Stakes on Model Distribution. Reports from The Information, Reuters, and Bloomberg point to a roughly $12.9 billion deal between NVIDIA and Hugging Face, though neither company has confirmed it. Moorhead and Newman question whether NVIDIA would treat Hugging Face as a neutral, GitHub-style repository to keep the open source community on side, or use it as a route into inference services without building out its own datacenter business directly. Newman raises the regulatory exposure of a chipmaker owning the leading open model distribution layer. (The Decode) The Flip: Dario's CNBC Appearance and Claudeforce Put Anthropic's SaaS Intentions to the Test. In this simulated debate, Daniel makes the case for Dario Amodei, pointing to Claudeforce's integration with Salesforce's identity graph, field-level permissions, and audit trail as evidence that Anthropic wants to operate as the intelligence layer sitting on top of enterprise systems of record. Patrick makes the case against this, framing the CNBC appearance as a Trojan horse and citing Amodei's past comments about a small number of AI companies eventually controlling the market as evidence that owning the UI, and the pricing power that comes with it, remains the actual goal. (The Flip) NVIDIA Posts a Quadruple Beat and Commits to a $700 Billion Revenue Target. NVIDIA reported $96.22 billion in quarterly revenue, with $89 billion from data center; it guided Q3 total revenue toward $108 billion and pointed to a $700 billion annualized revenue target Moorhead calls increasingly credible. The company's new AI Clouds, Industrial, and Enterprise reporting category grew 138%, outpacing the roughly 100% growth of the rest of the data center business and easing the concentration risk bears have flagged. Goldman Sachs, Morgan Stanley, Bernstein, and Raymond James all raised price targets on the print. (Bulls and Bears) Salesforce Raises Guidance as Agentforce ARR Grows 240%. Salesforce raised full-year guidance to $46.1 billion to $46.4 billion, with Agentforce ARR reaching $1.5 billion on 240% growth and non-GAAP EPS of $5.90. Moorhead points to premium SKU bookings more than doubling quarter over quarter and half of AI bookings coming from existing customer expansion as the durability signal Agentforce needed. Newman reads the results, paired with the CNBC appearance, as the market correcting its overreaction to the SaaSpocalypse narrative. (Bulls and Bears) Synopsys Beats Across the Board Despite Investor Confusion Over IP Revenue. Synopsys reported $2.48 billion in revenue, up 42%, with $711 million from Ansys, and raised guidance, with operating expense control around the Ansys integration paying off ahead of an expected 2027 revenue lift from the combined businesses. The stock still declined on investor confusion over IP segment reporting differences between FactSet and LSEG data. Newman highlights the company's unit-based royalty model and its early visibility into custom AI chip demand through both its EDA and Ansys simulation businesses. (Bulls and Bears) HP Beats on Revenue and Earnings But the Market Wants an Edge AI Story. HP reported $15.68 billion in revenue, up 12.5%, and EPS of $0.83, both ahead of consensus, with strong personal systems growth as supply constraints give the company pricing power on premium devices. Moorhead reads the sell-off as a margin trust discount tied to tariffs and lingering uncertainty over the company's interim CEO search, with device demand holding up. Newman is looking for HP to show how it monetizes distributed AI and on-device token economics, from lower-cost workstations up through devices like the $100,000 DGX Station. (Bulls and Bears) Everpure Grows Revenue 38% and Raises Guidance on a Second Hyperscaler Win. Everpure, formerly Pure Storage, grew revenue 38% to $1.19 billion, beat EPS at $0.70 versus $0.58 expected, and raised full-year guidance by more than $500 million on a second top-five hyperscaler design win landing in fiscal 2028. Newman points to eight straight quarters of accelerating revenue growth and expanding gross margin dollars even as pricing holds steady. The stock fell roughly 15% despite the beat, which Moorhead and Newman attribute to elevated investor expectations. (Bulls and Bears) Marvell Meets Expectations as the Market Waits for Google Deal Detail. Marvell posted data center revenue up 46% to $2.17 billion, total revenue up 37% to a record $2.739 billion, and Q3 guidance of $3.15 billion, essentially matching estimates, with its full-year outlook raised to roughly $18 billion. Shares fell more than 10% on investor appetite for a guidance raise tied to the Google custom silicon deal, which Moorhead expects Marvell to detail further at its October Financial Analyst Day. Newman frames the quarter as steady execution on socket wins, with the stock up 187% year to date, without the guidance drama some investors wanted.

On this latest edition of Tunnel Vision USCFootball.com's RJ Abeytia, Shotgun Spratling and intern India Otto are back in studio talking about the long awaited kickoff to the 2026 college football season, a week zero matchup against San Jose State. The Trojans, coming off a 9-4 season in 2025, face a Spartans squad that struggled to a 3-9 finish for head coach Ken Niumatalolo. Quarterback Jayden Maiava should shine against SJSU's defense, with few returning starters off a squad that struggled to get stops last year. New defensive coordinator Gary Patterson will get his squad tested out of the gate, facing Hawaii transfer quarterback Luke Weaver and the Spartans "Spread and shred" offense.The crew takes a look at what they are expecting out of this Trojan squad that will finally have the opportunity to put that No. 1 ranked recruiting class on display. They also give their thoughts on the newly released depth chart that featured five incoming freshmen as starters or co-starters and several more that landed on the two-deep.This is the podcast version (audio only) of our Tunnel Vision episode.Please review, rate and subscribe to the Peristyle Podcast on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Apple Podcasts⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ and ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Spotify⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠!Make sure you check out ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠USCFootball.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ for complete coverage of this USC Trojan football team.

Software engineer Jeremy Williamson warns that digital ID, surveillance technology, and centralized control over everyday technology are laying the groundwork for a system that could exclude dissenters from economic and social life. Age verification, he argues, is a "Trojan horse" for universal digital ID—tying identity to banking, communications, transportation, and essential services. COVID-era vaccine passports and frozen bank accounts during the Canadian trucker protests demonstrate how this infrastructure can be weaponized.Williamson connects these developments to Christian eschatology, warning that the technology being built could ultimately enable a "Beast system" in which those who refuse to comply are excluded. He urges Christians to reduce dependence on centralized systems: use cash, open-source software, older technology, maintain supplies, and build networks of like-minded people. The infrastructure is being laid. The question is whether Christians will recognize it before it is too late.HELP SUPPORT WORK LIKE THIS: https://give.lifesitenews.com/?utm_source=SOCIAL U.S. residents!

In this episode, we're talking about Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey. We talk about our expectations going into it, what we thought about the small and major changes that Nolan made to Homer's epic, and how we regard the major interpretative moves that were made relative to the representation of the gods and the Trojan horse. Team members on the episode from The Two Cities include: the Rev. Dr. Nathaniel Adishian, Dr. John Anthony Dunne, and Dr. Brandon Hurlbert. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

The Helium Boys, Shotgun Spratling and Chris Trevino, return behind the microphones for the first official game-week episode of the 2026 season, and they're bringing some new flair as they unveil a new 'Trojan Draft' competition pitting each co-host against each other in a match of statistical prognostication and team building.But first the podcasting duo open with the Two-Minute Drill where Shotgun talks about his excitement level now that game week is finally upon us while Chris discusses his adventure attending Salute to Troy for the first time. The boys of Helium jump into prior comments and corrections before breaking down what a couple of newsy items mean for USC after it was revealed Tobias Raymond will be the starting center while Jahkeem Stewart has been injured and will miss the first three games of the season. They also preview the upcoming matchup with San Jose State.The second half of the show features Shotgun and Chris snake drafting an offensive and defensive unit of Trojans that each believes will put up the best stats this season in the first-annual Trojan Draft.Shotgun then takes on Trevino's Take It or Leave It segment before the show concludes with an Overtime period of 'Real or Fake' Silicon Valley startups that include names such as Delicious, Backrub and Fashism.

A three-and-a-half-hour epic can be gorgeous and still leave you arguing in the parking lot. That's exactly what happened after we watched Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey, so we sat down for a full roundtable review with Jeremy, Michael, Mario Andrew, and James St. Simon to sort out what we loved, what we questioned, and what the film might be saying underneath the spectacle.[CONTAINS SPOILERS]• quick ratings and first reactions from readers and non-readers of Homer• whether an adaptation can be judged apart from its source material• why characterization matters more than plot changes• casting choices that distract from ancient Greece and break suspension of disbelief• the medium problem of turning an oral epic into a nonlinear film narrative• pacing, structure, and why a trilogy might help or hurt• the removal of the gods and the shift toward a secular psychological journey• an Orthodox Christian way to “take the nectar” from Greek myth• virtue themes, fidelity, and why the love story feels cleaner on screen• standout scenes like the sirens motif, the dog recognition, the Trojan horse claustrophobia, and “people from the sea”• Athena's beheading image, war guilt, justice, and the Dark Knight question of who carries the costWe start with honest first impressions from both Odyssey readers and people seeing the story fresh. Then we dig into the hardest question any film adaptation faces: can you evaluate it as a stand-alone movie when the source material is one of the pillars of Western literature? Along the way, we compare what works in beloved adaptations like The Lord of the Rings with what fails when writing and characterization drift too far. We also talk about pacing, Nolan's nonlinear storytelling, and why some viewers feel the film is rushed while others feel locked in the whole time.The biggest friction point is authenticity and immersion. We debate casting choices, modern cultural incentives, and why even a strong performance can break the spell when you keep noticing the actor instead of the character. From there we move into the deeper critique: the film's largely secular approach. Homer's Odyssey is infused with the gods, cosmic order, and reverence, but Nolan's version leans toward psychological guilt, war scars, and the modern theme that “the enemy is us.” As a Christian podcast, we ask what that shift costs, and how an Orthodox Christian approach can still “take the nectar” from Greek literature, pulling out virtue while leaving the rest.If you care about Christopher Nolan films, Homer's Odyssey, Greek mythology, or the moral questions around war, justice, and homecoming, this conversation is for you.

The horse is used in the film as an image of moral decline. But the repurposing of a sinister instrument of war into a popcorn container hints at the malleability of the conceit: A Trojan horse contains unexpected multitudes.知识点：mere（形容词）/mɪr/本义：仅仅的、只不过是的；用于强调数量、程度之小，暗含轻蔑或强调反差之意核心搭配：a mere + 数词/名词、for a mere sum• He solved the problem in a mere five minutes.他仅用五分钟就解决了这个问题。• The startup was valued at a mere fraction of its competitors.这家初创公司的估值仅是其竞争对手的一小部分。【节目介绍】 《早安英文-每日外刊精读》，带你精读最新外刊，了解国际最热事件：分析语法结构，拆解长难句，最接地气的翻译，还有重点词汇讲解。 所有选题均来自于《经济学人》《纽约时报》《华尔街日报》《华盛顿邮报》《大西洋月刊》《科学杂志》《国家地理》等国际一线外刊。 【适合谁听】 1、关注时事热点新闻，想要学习最新最潮流英文表达的英文学习者 2、任何想通过地道英文提高听、说、读、写能力的英文学习者 3、想快速掌握表达，有出国学习和旅游计划的英语爱好者 4、参加各类英语考试的应试者（如大学英语四六级、托福雅思、考研等） 【你将获得】 1、超过1000篇外刊精读课程，拓展丰富语言表达和文化背景 2、逐词、逐句精确讲解，系统掌握英语词汇、听力、阅读和语法 3、每期内附学习笔记，包含全文注释、长难句解析、疑难语法点等，帮助扫除阅读障碍。

In this episode, we explore the spiritual lessons hidden within The Odyssey, especially the danger of allowing “Trojan horses” into the gates of our lives. Just as the Greeks gained access to Troy through deception, we can unknowingly welcome influences, temptations, and compromises that weaken the walls we thought would protect us. But ultimately, no human effort can make our gates impenetrable. Only Christ can transform and eternally secure the gates of our lives. Through The Odyssey, we'll consider what we allow inside, what we're truly guarding, and why our ultimate security must rest in Christ. Connect With The Few! Follow us and join the conversation:

In this first “Odysseason” panel, a group of classics scholars discuss Christopher Nolan's new “Odyssey” film as a modern reinterpretation rather than Homer, focusing on war trauma in Odysseus, parallels to Bronze Age collapse, and a rules-based order undermined from within, including a reveal that the feared invaders are the Greeks. Participants critique the film's heavy-handedness, reduced meta-storytelling, altered roles of gods (largely absent), and major omissions (e.g., Nestor, Phaeacians), while noting changes such as the Trojan horse being recast as a source of guilt and an allegory for technology in warfare. They debate audience reception across generations, rewatch value, and how adaptations shape popular views. The discussion turns to ethical and political responsibilities around diverse casting, portrayal of Helen, filming in Western Sahara, IMAX exclusivity, and limited Greek participation and promotion.

In this episode of Better Call Daddy, host Reena Friedman Watts sits down with Kiko Zang, business executive, tech founder, and opinion leader building human-centric consumer products. Kiko is the Founder & CEO of Chomp, a social game that rewards honesty instead of punishing it and she's on a mission to fix what she calls the "performative internet." Kiko opens up about her path from boarding school in China to New Zealand and the United States, the anti-authoritarian streak she carried as a kid, and the long road to understanding her own identity across cultures. The conversation gets candid as she discusses her experience with open relationships and how it reshaped her views on love, trust, kindness, and loyalty then turns to the bigger picture: why social media rewards performance over authenticity, why women in particular self-censor online, and why honest human belief may be the scarcest, most valuable data in the age of AI. Kiko also shares her founder journey from COO at Orca (one of Solana's largest decentralized exchanges, where she helped raise $19M and grow the platform to $1B+ in 24-hour trading volume) to building Chomp, which drew 50,000 beta users sharing millions of honest answers and raised $3.6M from backers including BlueYard, JSquare, and Accomplice placing her among the 2% of female-led startups to raise venture capital. Chomp launches on iOS in 2026. Equal parts personal memoir and founder story, this episode covers identity, relationships, resilience, the loneliness epidemic, the funding gap for female founders, and what it takes to build something real in a "dead internet" full of bots and AI slop. Keywords: Kiko Zang, boarding school identity, open relationships podcast, cultural identity, female tech founder, women in venture capital, social media and authenticity, dead internet theory, Chomp app, Solana Orca DEX, honest opinions app, read the room, loneliness epidemic, Better Call Daddy podcast, Reena Friedman Watts

I just watched Nolan's Odyssey and went down a rabbit hole: did the Tudors even know this story? Turns out, not the way you'd think. For most of the dynasty, England's version of the Trojan War came from a completely different, largely invented medieval tradition, one that literally cut the gods out of the story. The real, translated Homer didn't arrive in English until the dynasty was basically over. In this one: two forged "eyewitness" accounts of the Trojan War, the first book ever printed in English, the Tudors' fake Trojan ancestor Brutus, Cambridge's Greek revival, and why not a single Tudor monarch ever got to read a finished English Homer.

Christopher Nolan has taken on one of the oldest stories ever told—and naturally, we needed two episodes to talk about it.The Popcorn Poseidon is joined by Dr. Dare to review The Odyssey, Nolan's massive 2026 adaptation of Homer's epic. In Part 1, we keep things mostly spoiler-light and answer the most important question: Should you watch this movie?We break down five reasons to see The Odyssey, why IMAX matters, Ludwig Göransson's incredible score, the enormous practical production, and why some of the online backlash feels completely overblown.Then it's time to Review the Reviews, where 10/10 declarations of “god tier filmmaking” collide headfirst with one-star complaints about pacing, acting, music and apparently everything else Nolan dared put on screen.We also dig into the absurd scale of the production—including full-size sets, planted olive trees, live sheep, Trojan horses being dragged through the dunes and practical effects that look so good you'll swear they're CGI.And whenever something seems strange?Don't worry.It was probably as Nolan intended.#TheOdyssey #ChristopherNolan #TheOdysseyMovie #MattDamon #Nolan #IMAX #LudwigGoransson #MovieReview #FilmReview #MoviePodcast #GreekMythology #Homer #ShouldYouWatchThis #PopcornPriest #ThePopcornPoseidon

This week on CounterSpin: It was not a shock when Donald Trump's Justice Department greenlit the merger of Paramount—owned by the scion of the Trump-adjacent Ellison family—with Warner Bros Discovery. Who cares if a single entity (that loves Donald Trump and all he stands for) controls a vast empire of the movies, cable TV and streaming services we have access to? It turns out a lot of people care, and that's why the merger, presented as a done deal weeks ago, is actually on the ropes. We'll get a state of play from Jessica Gonzalez, co-CEO of the public advocacy group Free Press. Also on the show: A sitting congressperson stated publicly: “Every single Muslim holding public office in America is a Trojan horse, and a threat to both national security and our republic. We refuse to be silent.” The fig leaf, if there were one, is off. Folks are just out here saying all Muslims (well, except for Dr. Oz) are devils, criminals, evil—and woe betide anyone who doesn't sign up for that perverse, hateful view. News media could declare such racist, ignorant, ahistorical, anti-democratic—did i say racist?—they could call all that out, and remove anyone spouting it from respectful public conversation. But: We have the media we have, so people who hate Muslims because they're Muslim have a seat at the grown-up table, and a microphone. Islamophobia in media is not new. It wasn't new when FAIR produced a report about it in 2008. We'll hear today a conversation we had around that report, which we called Smearcasting: How Islamophobes Spread Fear, Bigotry and Misinformation, with former FAIR staffers Isabel MacDonald and Steve Rendall. CounterSpin provides a critical examination of the each week's major news stories, and exposes what the mainstream media may have missed in their own coverage. Produced by the national media watch group FAIR (Fairness and Accuracy In Reporting). The post Jessica Gonzalez on Paramount Merger, Isabel MacDonald and Steve Rendall (2008) on Islamophobia appeared first on KPFA.

"My father, behold, the enemy's ships came here. My cities were burned, and they did evil things in my country. Does not my father know that all my troops and chariots are in the land of Hatti, and all my ships are in the land of Lukka? The country is abandoned to itself. May my father know it: the seven ships of the enemy that came here inflicted much damage upon us."Around the year 1185 BCE, Ammurapi, the last king of the ancient city Ugarit, urged the king of nearby Alashiya to send help. His city, which had stood for thousands of years, was one of the great commercial capitals of the eastern Mediterranean. But help would never arrive. Ugarit fell and was never rebuilt. And it was not alone.Up and down the coastline, from Greece to Anatolia to the Levant, an entire interconnected world of Bronze Age superpowers essentially stopped existing within the span of a few decades. Cities that had thrived for centuries were reduced to ash. Writing systems disappeared so completely that entire regions went functionally illiterate for centuries. And at the center of almost every ancient account of what happened, you find the same phrase showing up in Egyptian temple walls and Syrian palace archives alike, describing a coalition of raiders.

Eric Metaxas interviews Larry Taunton about a viral Oxford Union debate on the motion “the West should be suspicious of Islam,” featuring Lawrence Fox and Tommy Robinson. Taunton explains he helped Fox prepare by treating the event as performance, recounts attempted cancellation pressure from the Bishop of Oxford, police, media, and a hostile crowd, and says the Union delayed releasing video. They discuss a Muslim student's opening remarks referencing a mob outside, and Fox's envelope “prop” that implied a Muhammad cartoon but revealed a caricature of an opposing MP, triggering laughter and procedural objections. The conversation then shifts to the Democratic Socialists of America meeting in Chicago, its platform proposals, and Taunton's claim that Muslims advance influence in the West via socialism as a “Trojan horse,” alongside criticism of socialist economics and “democratic socialism.”

Ken Carman and Anthony Lima open by dissecting the Michigan-Ohio State hate rivalry, debating whether Kyle Whittingham's measured comments about Ohio State are genuine or a "Trojan horse" compared to Jeremiah Smith's raw hatred of Michigan, with Albert Breer's warning that Whittingham's words will haunt him if he loses in November. The conversation pivots hard to the Browns, where Ken reveals that despite no one in local media wanting Deshaun Watson to win the starting job, he increasingly believes Watson will be "given" it out of camp over Shedeur Sanders. They play Mike Tannenbaum's blunt take that the Browns should cut ties with Watson entirely given his injury history and poor play, which Ken says just "preaches to the choir" of how locals already feel. Anthony notes the stark gap between local and national coverage, pointing out that national pundits barely mention Shedeur or the Browns at all, dismissing Cleveland's quarterback room as one of the league's worst regardless of who starts.

The Year of the Trojan Fire Horse: China's imbalanced economy and unrelenting mercantilism While there's plenty of evidence to support Stephen Roach's thesis of unsustainable imbalances in China's economy, China is living up to anthropomorphic characteristics of this year's zodiac, the Fire Horse, in at least one regard: bold moves, self-reliance, speed, action and innovation in the energy transition.
