Former New Zealand Rugby Chairman Brent Impey is taking part in rugby initiative Kiwi K.A.R.E to help support rugby players in Ukraine who have been affected by war. Impey has been working alongside Sir Graham Henry and other volunteers to help Ukrainian rugby teams continue to train and upskill their players. Trustee of Kiwi Aid and Refugee Evacuation, Impey tells Tim Beveridge he visited players in Ukraine and found they are still playing rugby throughout the Russian invasion. The Ukrainian team is hoping to qualify for the Olympics, and Impey is working with groups of 20 men and 20 women to build the national team amongst the region's turmoil. “It is absolutely inspirational.” LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Andrey Kurkov is Ukraine's most celebrated novelist. When Russia invaded Ukraine he turned his writing to journalism and memoir, but his latest book is a work of fiction set amid the chaos of the Russian Revolution. The Silver Bone (translated by Boris Dralyuk) is the first in a trilogy of historical mysteries in which the recently orphaned detective investigates his first case while Bolsheviks, Cossacks, and white Army Guards all vie to take control of Kyiv. The journalist and writer Peter Pomerantsev retells the daring story of the WWII propogandist Sefton Delmer who managed to infiltrate German airwaves and skilfully question Nazi doctrine. How to Win an Information War reveals the extent of the complexity of spin and indoctrination used in the past, alongside the role of propaganda today in Putin's Russia.The information war is heading into a new era with the development of generative AI which makes it simple to produce fake text, audio and videos. The news editor at MIT Technology Review Charlotte Jee says the pace of change is extraordinary, and regulation is lagging behind, as deepfakes are becoming more difficult to distinguish from actual human content.

Wagner is a private military company of mercenaries that has been fighting alongside the regular Russian army in Ukraine. Wagner boss Yevgeny Prigozhin has for months been involved in a feud with the Russian defence ministry, but he denies trying to overthrow Mr Putin's regime. The short-lived rebellion, which saw Wagner fighters seize a major Russian city before heading north towards Moscow in a column of military vehicles, was a response to government plans to take direct control of Wagner, Prigozhin claims. This week on the Real Story we are focusing on the implications for Russia's military of the mutiny by a man who was once President Putin's caterer.

Sergei Chapnin is a senior fellow at the Orthodox Christian Studies Center at Fordham University in New York City. He's also an art curator and journalist. He was once the executive editor at The Journal of The Moscow Patriarchate before he had a falling out with leaders of the Russian Orthodox Church over his concerns that the church was becoming too close to the state and to Vladimir Putin. Chapnin spoke with ReligionUnplugged.com executive editor Paul Glader recently about the war in Ukraine and the risks the war poses to Orthodox Christianity with a widening set of fault lines.

It's Monday, March 13th, A.D. 2023. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard at www.TheWorldview.com. I'm Adam McManus. By Adam McManus (Adam@TheWorldview.com) Nigerians kill Kaduna pastor's son and abduct pastor's wife Last Friday, gunmen suspected to be bandits killed the son of a village pastor and abducted his wife, along with three others, in an attack in Nigeria's Kaduna State, reports The Christian Post. Revelation 21:8 says that all murderers will be punished “in the lake that burns with fire and sulfur, which is the second death.” The Nigerian government continues to be criticized for its inability to curb the rising spate of murders in the region. Christian rights groups have warned for years about the deteriorating religious freedom conditions in Nigeria amid the rise of terror groups like Boko Haram and the Islamic State in the northeast. Advocates have also warned about an increase in deadly violence against predominantly Christian communities committed by radical Muslim herders in the farming-rich Middle Belt states as the country deals with desertification and erosion of natural resources. Disturbingly, last month, Biden's State Department reaffirmed its decision to remove Nigeria from its list of countries of particular concern for religious freedom violations after conducting an allegedly “careful review” following objections from Nigerian Christians, human rights groups, and members of Congress. More than 30 high profile Russians have died since Ukraine invasion Dozens of high profile Russian figures have died since Vladimir Putin launched his bloody war in Ukraine over a year ago -- with many in odd circumstances, such as sudden "suicides" and falls from windows, reports The U.S. Sun recently and The Atlantic last December. For example, Sergey Grishin, the so-called "Scarface" oligarch who sold Meghan and Harry their California mansion, died this week from sepsis after criticizing Putin. Meanwhile, Russian scientist Andrey Botikov, who created the "Sputnik V" vaccine , was strangled with a belt in his apartment last week. Both men were two of the 30 high profile deaths of people linked to Mad Vlad. Jon Sweet, a retired US Army Military Intelligence Officer, described Putin as running a "modern-day KGB version of Murder Inc." Biden eager to fund more cross-gender surgeries for veterans President Joe Biden's new 2024 budget plan, released on Thursday, proposes to funnel some of the $137.9 billion discretionary budget for the Department of Veterans Affairs into mutilating surgeries for America's veterans, reports LifeSiteNews.com. The Biden administration is ignoring new research into the use of cross-sex hormones.  Last month, the American College of Cardiology revealed studies that showed that “people with gender dysphoria taking hormone replacements as part of gender affirmation therapy face a substantially increased risk of serious cardiac events, including stroke, heart attack and pulmonary embolism.” Reports of sexual assault at military academies shot up 18% Reported incidents of sexual assault at U.S. military academies jumped 18% during the 2021-2022 school year compared to the year prior, reports The Associated Press. Nearly one in five female cadets at the Army, Navy and Air Force academies said they experienced unwanted sexual contact in the most recent school year, according to the annual report. The number of estimated instances of sexual harassment also grew to 3,939 in the 2021-2022 school year, including more than half of women and one-fifth of men. In a memo to academy administrators, Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin wrote that the service academies “observed an alarming increase in the estimated prevalence of sexual assault, sexual harassment, and other concerning behaviors. These corrosive behaviors require your immediate attention.” Vivek Ramaswamy announces anti-woke presidential bid Vivek Ramaswamy might not have a background in politics, but that didn't stop him from becoming one of the first candidates to announce their run for the GOP presidential nomination in 2024, reports BusinessInsider.com. The biotech millionaire, who was once the CEO of Roivant, will likely struggle for exposure in the predicted crowded field for the Republican nomination, but his past shows he isn't afraid of a challenge. Ramaswamy is the son of immigrants from India and an overachiever at Harvard. Listen as he describes the problem in America today. RAMASWAMY:  “We're in the middle of a national identity crisis. Faith, patriotism, and hard work have disappeared -- only to be replaced by new secular religions like COVID-ism, climate-ism, and gender ideology. We hunger to be part of something bigger than ourselves. Yet we cannot even answer the question of what it means to be an American. “Today, the woke Left preys on that vacuum. They tell you that your race, your gender, and your sexual orientation, govern who you are, what you can achieve, and what you're allowed to think. This is psychological slavery, and that has created a new culture of fear in our country that has completely replaced our culture of free speech in America. And that is why today, I am announcing my run for President of the United States.” To be sure, Ramaswamy is a longshot for the GOP nomination, but the conservative firebrand says he has big plans to start a "cultural movement." Listen. RAMASWAMY:  “This isn't just a political campaign. This is a cultural movement to create a new American Dream for the next generation.” Learn more at his website Vivek2024.com.  That's V-I-V-E-K 2024 dot com.  Plus, check out his YouTube channel. 11 Minutes of brisk walking a day slashes premature death by 23% And finally, walking at a brisk pace for just 11 minutes a day slashes the risk of your premature death by almost a quarter, reports StudyFinds.org. The team led by researchers at the University of Cambridge showed how one in ten early deaths could be prevented if everyone managed to reach the threshold of 75 minutes per week of moderate-intensity physical activity. The study demonstrated that this would be sufficient to lower the risk of heart disease and stroke–the leading causes of death globally—as well as a number of cancers. The conclusions were drawn when the Medical Research Council Epidemiology Unit at the University of Cambridge looked at results reported in 196 peer-reviewed articles covering more than 30 million participants. 1 Corinthians 6:19-20 asks, “Do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit within you, whom you have from God? You are not your own, for you were bought with a price. So, glorify God in your body.” Close And that's The Worldview on this Monday, March 13th in the year of our Lord 2023. Subscribe by iTunes or email to our unique Christian newscast at www.TheWorldview.com.

One year ago this week, the great American betrayal of Afghanistan culminated with a total debacle of a withdrawal that ended in death and carnage.  On Aug. 26, 2021, 13 US troops and 170 Afghans were killed when a bomb ripped through the crowd at the Abbey Gate. The blast took only seconds, but the devastation will live on for decades.  And in this pod, we'll go deep into it with new reporting from The Washington Post's intrepid defense reporter, Dan Lamothe (@DanLamothe).  Dan joined us on this show twice before. Once for a pre-inauguration preview in January of 2021 for Episode 96. And again for Episode 154 back in February 2022 to talk about then new documents that revealed the U.S. military was intensely frustrated with the administration over the Afghanistan evacuation. The Washington Post broke the story, and Dan was the lead reporter and joined us to talk about it.  And now he's back—one year after the collapse of Afghanistan—to share the insights and moving takeaways from his exclusive new story.  Dan talked to 13 U.S. troops who survived the Kabul airport disaster about how their feelings of guilt and grief endure. There's also a companion podcast that features three of them. It's harrowing, frustrating and heartbreaking stuff. That suicide bomber did more than kill dozens that day. It blew apart the lives of all who survived. And the Biden narrative for Afghanistan.  And yes, kids. America is still at war. In many places. Including Syria. Host Paul Rieckhoff (@PaulRieckhoff) and Dan also dig into the US airstrike in Syria that most Americans didn't even see. And it's been 6 months since Russia invaded Ukraine. Is support inside the Pentagon slipping after all the carnage? Listen and find out.  And, Paul and Dan break down where the next American bombs might fall. And where the next unformed American boots might walk. The answers might surprise you.  Speaking of surprises, and things blowing up, that's what happened to this show 48 hours ago. We were very happy Dan could join us. But that wasn't the original plan. As Paul told you last episode, we had a big guest coming up. But after a bit of back and forth, things went in a different direction. The guest flaked in a big way.

Holmberg's Morning Sickness - Thursday May 19, 2022

Antonio Guterres said he was deeply concerned about the humanitarian situation in Ukraine. Also: Gazprom to suspend supplies to Poland, and the tiny book that sold for more than one million dollars.

In this public News Brief, we examine the most unhelpful, glib, self-aggrandizing, and cynical responses from American media to Russia's invasion of Ukraine.

MSNBC's Ari Melber hosts "The Beat" on Thursday, March 10, and reports on the latest concerning the conflict in Ukraine, the humanitarian crisis unfolding as fighting escalates, and the civilian resistance Ukrainians are exhibiting on the ground. Malcolm Nance, Katty Kay, and the former Minister of the Economy in Ukraine, Tymofiy Mylovanov, join.

Neither Russian President Vladimir Putin or Chinese President Xi Jinping will rest until they see their respective flags flying over Ukraine, and over Taipei in Xi's case. However, Putin's invasion of Ukraine has not been quick or decisive like he hoped. Instead, Ukrainian President Volodomyr Zelenskyy has managed to unite NATO against Putin and extend a war nearly 2 weeks that was expected to last a couple of days. As a result, Russia's invasion has been expensive and debilitating to their economy. European countries are now willing to spend more money on their own defense, and Xi Jinping has to determine if Putin's blatant war crimes are harmful to China's credibility after they decided to back him. Not to mention, the West has been committing economic suicide in the name of “climate change.” China has been thriving by using coal-fired plants. You can bet China is paying attention and taking notes.  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Didn't take long- one day after the SOTU?- before Joe Biden turned around and said something vicious and spiteful about the Right, in this case tying Russia invasion to January 6th. Biden isn't a nice guy- that's just media spin- and he's utterly ruthless in his demagoguery and willingness to divide the country.
