Send us a textBuckle up, warfighters—this one's gonna rattle some cages. In this fire-breathing episode, Jared and Aaron torch the lazy talking points and break down why foreign aid isn't just “giving away your tax dollars.” From crushing fentanyl pipelines before they cross U.S. borders to outmaneuvering China's Belt and Road sleight of hand, this is your crash course in how global influence actually works. They pull no punches while explaining how smart international assistance builds partner capacity, prevents U.S. boots on the ground, and gives America leverage without dropping a single JDAM. Plus: why U2 should be banned from Bluetooth speakers and what happens when your soft power goes soft.Forget TikTok takes—this is real strategy from dudes who lived it.

The Black Room with Steve Gorman & Nikki Blakk- this week we talk about Robert Plant's recent project Saving Grace and free form into Led Zep, U2, musician-specific injuries and how repetitive motion injury kills your gaming. Yes, we talk about the Springsteen Trump beef and the greater implications for the touring industry, but also legacy catalogs and how we could see releases from Bruce, Dolly & Prince for the next century.

Det irske band U2 spillede på Orange Scene på et tidspunkt, hvor de endnu ikke havde fået deres verdensgennembrud. - Det blev en fuldkommen livsdefinerende begivenhed for mig, som var af mindst lige så spirituel som af musikalsk karakter, fortæller Henrik Marstal, der dengang var blot 15 år. - Det var en oplevelse af, at musik var noget andet og mere end bare underholdning eller identitetsbekræftelse. At musik var noget meget dybere end det. Det forstod jeg til den koncert, fortæller Henrik Marstal, musiker, musikforsker, debattør og "mandlig feminist". 

The robots aren't just coming—they're already here. And if you're not paying attention, they might not just take your job… they could take your personal data too. In this episode of The Stacking Benjamins Show, Joe Saul-Sehy, OG, and Doug dive into the rise of artificial intelligence, exploring whether it's a threat, a tool, or something in between. If you've been wondering how AI will impact your work, your privacy, and your future, this episode is a must-listen. They kick off with a surprising headline: Gen Z workers are sidestepping AI entirely—not by resisting it, but by choosing careers where machines can't compete (like landscaping and trades), and using AI tools to grow their businesses faster. This sparks a full-on basement debate about how technology has historically impacted jobs, what the next evolution might look like, and whether AI will make our lives easier… or just busier. In today's show: Why some jobs may disappear—but others are about to explode with opportunity The surprising role AI is playing in blue-collar and skilled trade growth Why being AI-curious (not AI-phobic) is your best financial move New tech tools that supercharge productivity—from transcription wallets to note-taking bots How AI is already transforming education and career paths What to do right now to stay ahead of the AI curve Then the guys shift gears to a more sinister topic: data privacy. CNET recently reported which free AI chatbots are scooping up the most of your personal info—and which are surprisingly respectful. The gang reveals which apps are best to trust, and which are like letting Zuck crash on your couch (bad idea). We'll also hear from listener John, who wants to hire a financial advisor but isn't sure where to start. Joe and OG break down how to find the right fit, why fees aren't the most important factor, and the one question that tells you if someone's worth hiring. Plus: Doug's trivia on egomaniacal coin designers A TikTok minute about U2, dating apps, and dad jokes Back porch chatter about Pontiac Azteks, water treatment careers, and IMAX concert pilgrimages Takeaway: AI isn't just a tech trend—it's reshaping our economy, our careers, and even how we learn. Whether you're a Gen Z worker, mid-career professional, or planning your retirement, now's the time to lean in, explore what AI can (and can't) do, and secure your future before the bots beat you to it.

Jesus had a way of saying so much in a story—so much about the human condition, about our condition, that we probably could never be told directly.At this past Gathering, a parable of Jesus was considered that reveals all of our best excuses in life for exactly what they are.The band performed songs by U2, Ryan Adams, Joel Houston, and more.

HAIM machen Schluss. Aber nicht öppe als Band. Angetrieben vom Breakup mit Produzent Ariel Rechtshaid fertigten Danielle Haim und ihre beiden Schwestern eine Liste an von Dingen, mit denen man endlich aufhören will: u. a. «Nikotin», «Vorurteile», «unbegründete Ängste» stehen da nun drauf. Verpackt werden diese Vorsätze in das übliche musikalische Gewand irgendwo zwischen Fleetwood Mac, Sheryl Crow und Vampire Weekend. Heisst aber noch lange nicht, dass HAIM auf ihrem vierten Album deswegen auf der Stelle treten – man nehme da nur mal die unerwarteten Samples (George Michael! U2?!), die es in den insgesamt 15 Songs zu entdecken gibt. So etwas haben wir von den Kalifornierinnen noch nie gehört! «I quit» ist das neue Sounds! Album der Woche. Vinyl? CD? Dein Lieblingsformat gibt's diese Woche bis Donnerstag ein Mal pro Sendung zu gewinnen.

Plus Robert Christgau's A+ Albums, the New Yorker, and more!

The Joshua Tree is perhaps only rivaled by the saguaro cactus as the icon of the desert southwest. Featured on U2's classic album cover, and now the backdrop of countless instagram glamor shots, its unique, almost alien look is unmistakable.But for decades the Joshua Tree was looked at with disdain - even loathing and hatred. Today, our guest is Barret Baumgart, author of the new book, “Yuck: The Birth & Death of the Weird & Wondrous Joshua Tree”. Barret explores the history of the Joshua Tree, in a book that can be considered part history, part natural history, part cultural criticism, and part ecology.Today, we delve into the strange and winding tail of the Joshua Tree and its history of evading human preconceptions and assumptions. Living on the edge, it faces a potentially bleak future, but perhaps it will thwart us once again, against all odds.Be sure to check out Barret on instagram, and on his Substack called Dumpster Fires.FULL SHOW NOTESLINKSBarret's Website, including speaking engagementsBuy YUCK - The Birth & Death of the Weird & Wondrous Joshua Tree, Yucca brevifolia from bookshop.orgSupport Us On Patreon!Buy our Merch!Music: Spellbound by Brian Holtz MusicLicense (CC BY 4.0): https://filmmusic.io/standard-licenseArtist site: https://brianholtzmusic.com Discover the Jumpstart Nature Podcast - entertaining and immersive, it's the nature fix we all need.Check past Nature's Archive episodes for amazing guests like Doug Tallamy, Elaine Ingham, and Rae Wynn-Grant, covering topics from bird migration to fungi to frogs and bats!

In this episode, I am joined by the podcast Producer, Josh Gilbert, for our second tutorial edition. This time, we tackle some heavy stuff - Josh opens up about his modern existential crisis of living untethered from traditional institutions, which gets us into William James' "Will to Believe" and the whole mess of making momentous decisions in a culture that's allergic to commitment. Then I get nerdy about Andreas Reckwitz's fascinating analysis of late modernity - how we've split into two warring tribes: the hyper-culture individualists seeking singular authenticity and the cultural essentialists clinging to collective identity. It's a compelling framework for understanding why we're all at each other's throats politically while the middle class gets squeezed into an hourglass shape. We also geek out over Byung-Chul Han's concept of positive violence, reminisce about U2 concerts with my son Elgin, and somehow end up discussing Rob Bell's uncanny resemblance to the lead singer of Matchbox Twenty. Oh, and we're planning a cigar expo "research retreat" in September because apparently that counts as legitimate podcast planning.

n this powerful message, Pastor Tim Ghali concludes the Just Love series with a heartfelt sermon on 1 John 5 — calling us to live with bold faith, confront modern idols, and “love loud” in a world that deeply needs the love of Christ.

A memoir-in-essays on transness, dad rock, and the music that saves us. When Wilco's 2007 album Sky Blue Sky was infamously criticized as "dad rock," Niko Stratis was a twenty-five-year-old closeted trans woman working in her dad's glass shop in the Yukon Territory. As she sought escape from her hypermasculine environment, Stratis found an unlikely lifeline amid dad rock's emotionally open and honest music. Listening to dad rock, Stratis could access worlds beyond her own and imagine a path forward. In taut, searing essays rendered in propulsive and unguarded prose, Stratis delves into the emotional core of bands like Wilco and The National, telling her story through the dad rock that accompanied her along the way. She found footing in Michael Stipe's allusions to queer longing, Radiohead's embrace of unknowability, and Bruce Springsteen's very trans desire to "change my clothes my hair my face"--and she found in artists like Neko Case and Sharon Van Etten that the label transcends gender. A love letter to the music that saves us and a tribute to dads like Stratis's own who embody the tenderness at the genre's heart, The Dad Rock That Made Me a Woman (University of Texas Press, 2025) rejoices in music unafraid to bare its soul. Niko Stratis is an award-winning writer from Toronto by way of the Yukon, where she spent years working as a journeyman glazier before coming out as trans in her thirties and being forced to abandon her previous line of work. Her writing has appeared in publications like Catapult, Spin, Paste and more. She's a Cancer, and a former smoker. Niko Stratis on Bluesky. Bradley Morgan is a media arts professional in Chicago and author of U2's The Joshua Tree: Planting Roots in Mythic America (Rowman & Littlefield, 2021) and Frank Zappa's America (LSU Press, 2025).

Shana discusses how understanding her own biases and limitations has been key to her growth as a parent.   Navigating Opposite Characteristics: A deep dive into the day-to-day interactions and long-term planning that come with managing differing needs and desires, highlighting both the struggles and the beautiful moments of connection.   Join us for a heartfelt and practical conversation that not only highlights the complexities of such diverse personality combinations but also provides real-world advice for parents facing similar challenges.

She has over 10,000 hours of experience in education, both in the classroom and corporate sector. Even though she holds a Master's degree in education, she struggled to understand her neurodivergent and oppositional kids.  Inspired by her experience using Myers Briggs and the Enneagram with business teams, she spent over a decade researching temperament pattens to help family teams. She is a best-selling author and host of the Not So Normal Parenting podcast.   Her podcast is entitled Not So Normal Parenting because not only are she and her kids neurodivergent but some of her life experiences, such as driving off a cliff her wedding night and going viral for embarrassing her seventeen-year old son by dancing on a snowy and jammed interstate, fall into that category. In addition to being talked about by Hoda Kotb, the BackStreet Boys, and Princess Kate, even U2 singer Bono mentioned the incident in his autobiography.   Because Wendy herself has struggled as a helicopter parent, a cranky parent and an embarrassing parent, she wants to help other parents struggle……..a little bit less!  

Blaine begins the episode with a welcome and overview (0:02) before he offers Adam and Donovan a recommendation and a nod to Apple TV's 'Stick,' featuring Owen Wilson, which has a surprising potential to charm us all—if it can manage to steer clear of its own sand traps (1:04). From there and still in the non-spoiler section, Blaine and Donovan take a hard look at FX's 'Adults,' a show that's trying to capture an essence (3:37). Still in non-spoilers, all three hosts round it out with 'Bono: Songs of Surrender,' a documentary that goes beyond mere fanfare (7:07). In the spoiler segment after the break, Blaine and Donovan get into the specifics of what makes 'Adults' fail miserably (15:53) as well as what allows for 'Bono: Songs of Surrender' soar above mere U2 history (28:18).

What do you get when a global rock icon, hailed as a Christian prophet, rewrites the words of Jesus, mocks the need to be born again, and openly celebrates Satanic filmmakers. You get Bono, frontman of U2, whose influence stretches from the Vatican to the world stage, all while distorting the gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ.

1985. július 13-án a popzene történetének egyik legmeghatározóbb eseménye zajlott le: a Live Aid. Két kontinensen, Londonban és Philadelphiában egyszerre zajlott a gigantikus jótékonysági koncert, amelynek célja az etiópiai éhínség enyhítése volt. A színpadon ott volt szinte mindenki, aki számított: a Queen, a U2, David Bowie, Madonna, Bob Dylan, a Led Zeppelin, a Who, Sting, Phil Collins itt és ott – és még sokan mások. A közvetítés több mint 1,5 milliárd embert ért el világszerte, és az esemény újraértelmezte, mire képes a popkultúra és az összefogás.- Bob Geldof is a saint - mondta két szám között Bryan Adams: egyik állandó vendégünk, Fábián Titusz segítségével végigvesszük, hogyan lett az ír Boomtown Rats frontembere az évtized közepének meghatározó figurája, mik voltak az előzmények, hogyan szervezte az eseményt Nagy-Britanniában és az USÁ-ban, kik és miért nem voltak jelen, hogyan épít egy hamis mítoszt a Bohemian Rhapsody című film a Queen fellépésével kapcsolatban, milyen utóélete volt a Live Aidnek, milyen magyar vonatkozásai vannak, avagy felléphetett-e volna az LGT a Wembley-ben, illetve a magyar eseményen miért nem játszott az R-Go.Műsorvezető: Bihari Balázs, Németh RóbertA Wanted podcast adása az NKA Hangfoglaló program támogatásával készült.

This week, the boys head back to 2007 to spin another Roger Deakins film, “No Country For Old Men”, currently streaming on Paramount+. While other shows have covered the film, we shoot from the hip and discuss how it felt to re-watch it and what it means to us. F those other stuffy critic narcs. The cinematographer from Dave's homeland had a helluva a year with three award-winning films, this one winning Best Picture at the Oscars, and cementing the Coen Brothers as industry elites, much to their Chigurh (that's a movie joke). Yeah, it beat “There Will Be Blood”. We talk about it a bit. John also opens with his “MI” and “Friendship” takes. Grab a beer and hear our thoughts. Our phone number is 646-484-9298. It accepts texts or voice messages.  0:00 Intro; 4:29 John's mini-review of “MI: The Final Reckoning” and “Friendship”; 14:52 Gripes; 17:47 2007 Year in Review; 38:52 Films of 2007: “No Country For Old Men”; 1:38:52 What You Been Watching?; 1:47:34 Next Episode Teaser Additional Cast/Crew: Tommy Lee Jones, Josh Brolin, Javier Bardem, Roger Deakins, Joel Coen, Ethan Coen, Kelly Macdonald, Woody Harrelson, Stephen Root, Barry Corbin, Tess Harper, Gerret Dillahunt, Gene Jones, Scott Rudin, Paul Rudd, Tim Robinson, Hosts: Dave Green, Jeff Ostermueller, John Say Edited & Produced by Dave Green.

In the music business, Brian Eno is a name to conjure with. He's been the producer of tremendous hits by U2, Talking Heads, David Bowie, Grace Jones, Coldplay, and many other top artists. But he's also a conceptualist, nicknamed Professor Eno in the British music press, and a foundational figure in ambient music—a genre whose very name Eno coined. Amanda Petrusich speaks with Eno about his two new albums that just came out, “Luminal” and “Lateral,” and his new book, “What Art Does.” “One of the realizations I had when I was writing this book is that really the only product of art is feelings,”  Eno says. “Its main point is to make your feelings change—is to give you feelings that you perhaps didn't have before or did have before and want to have again or want to experiment with. So it seems very simplistic to say, ‘Oh, it's all about feelings.' But actually I think it is. Feelings are overlooked by all of those people who think bright children shouldn't do art.”

Are you raising a future innovator, strategist, or systems architect? The INTJ is one of the rarest and most independent types—especially in girls—and their complex inner world can leave even the most insightful parent scratching their head. In this episode, we dive into the psychology behind the INTJ temperament, from their mysterious inner vision to their intense need for autonomy, structure, and meaning. Learn how to parent an INTJ child with confidence by understanding their four psychological functions (Ni, Te, Fi, Se), how they show up in babies, grade schoolers, teens, and adults, and what kinds of real-world activities will light them up. You'll also hear practical tips for helping INTJs build emotional awareness, balance their perfectionism, and adjust to life's inevitable curveballs. ✨ Take the free temperament test and find out if your child is an INTJ.

She has over 10,000 hours of experience in education, both in the classroom and corporate sector. Even though she holds a Master's degree in education, she struggled to understand her neurodivergent and oppositional kids.  Inspired by her experience using Myers Briggs and the Enneagram with business teams, she spent over a decade researching temperament pattens to help family teams. She is a best-selling author and host of the Not So Normal Parenting podcast. Her podcast is entitled Not So Normal Parenting because not only are she and her kids neurodivergent but some of her life experiences, such as driving off a cliff her wedding night and going viral for embarrassing her seventeen-year old son by dancing on a snowy and jammed interstate, fall into that category. In addition to being talked about by Hoda Kotb, the BackStreet Boys, and Princess Kate, even U2 singer Bono mentioned the incident in his autobiography. Because Wendy herself has struggled as a helicopter parent, a cranky parent and an embarrassing parent, she wants to help other parents struggle……..a little bit less!

Watch This Episode On YouTubeWith the baritones of Bono and U2 as the soundtrack, the globe-trotting world of Mary Robinson requires an epic film to depict her life, and thankfully, they found the director that can deliver just that in Irish filmmaker Aoife Kelleher.Aoife gave us the brilliant film MRS ROBINSON (2024), still on its festival run. MRS ROBINSON tells the inspirational life story of change-maker Mary Robinson: Ireland's first female President, a pioneering UN High Commissioner for Human Rights, and the successor of Nelson Mandela as Chair of The Elders.And if all that wasn't enough, check out her film, TESTIMONY (2025), also on the festival circuit. Not sure when Aoife has time to sleep but she found time to talk with me for the podcast, and I'm delighted to share that conversation with you.In this episode, Aoife and I discuss:her biographical statement that she seeks in her work to "tell hidden truths about Ireland and Irishness" -- what does that mean? what is an Irish film?;how did she get involved in filmmaking? "my parents were primary school principals and my dad was a politician so it was like, there were a lot of debates around these kind of themes at the dinner table";her switch from law to filmmaking -- "I'd had this work experience in a legal firm that had put me off the idea of pursuing law";what did she learn from her first documentary ONE MILLION DUBLINERS (2014) that she takes away for her current film?how did she get the opportunity to make MRS ROBINSON (2024), even with pitching against many other companies -- "you really can't stress [enough] how large Mary Robinson looms in Irish society";how she made it clear they weren't creating a puff piece documentary -- "from the earliest points in the pitching process, we made it clear that we would not be doing that, and that was what she wanted, too";how she was able to license U2 and other prominent musicians as part of this film (they were going to play "Fortunate Son" by CCR in a Vietnam scene...I think it worked out better with Bono!);the climate activism portion of the film and how it resonates now versus 30 years ago;how has documentary changed in the last ten years?;what's next for her? TESTIMONY (2025) is also on the festival circuit, which means she has TWO feature films on the circuit right nowAoife's Indie Film Highlight: BLUE ROAD: THE EDNA O'BRIEN STORY (2024) dir. by Sinead O'Shea; A WANT IN HER (2024) dir. by Myrid CartenLinks:MRS ROBINSON (2024) WebsiteFollow Screen Ireland on Instagram For More Info On Irish FilmmakersWatch This Episode On YouTubeSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/first-time-go/exclusive-content

Nonfiction writer Paul Elie joins co-hosts Whitney Terrell and V.V. Ganeshananthan to discuss his new book The Last Supper: Art, Faith, Sex, and Controversy in the 1980s and Pope Leo XIV. Elie compares the new pope to John Paul II, whose conservative views shaped the 1980s. He explains how and why '80s artists like Andy Warhol, U2, and Bob Dylan produced art he considers “crypto-religious,” a term coined by poet Czesław Miłosz. He analyzes limbo and purgatory in the work of writers of the period, including Louise Erdrich and Toni Morrison, and recalls the culture wars, including iconic incidents like Sinéad O'Connor tearing up the pope's picture on Saturday Night Live, as well as the controversy over Andres Serrano's Piss Christ.
