And almost nobody is talking about it. Catharine Arnston is the founder of Energy Bits, a PhD holder, and the world's leading voice on spirulina and chlorella — the two algae she calls your nutritional and health insurance. She found this world trying to help her sister recover from breast cancer, spent 17 years going deeper into science than anyone else has, and is now nearly 70 years old with more energy, clarity, and vitality than most people half her age. The proof is in everything she says. In this episode, you'll discover:  • Why spirulina's amino acid profile is almost identical to mother's breast milk — and how it protects the mitochondria, clears brain fog, and rebuilds energy at a cellular level without stimulants or crashes  • What chlorella actually does inside the body: pulling out heavy metals, toxins, and excess iron while triggering serotonin production, improving mood, and getting your gut moving  • Why most algae on the market has had its most critical nutrients deactivated — and what to look for to make sure you're getting the real thing Aging is natural. Declining is not.

On today's episode, Dr. Allen Gotora shares a powerful message on why relationships are the hidden KPI behind every successful dental practice. Drawing from his own life-changing experience as a high school student in Zimbabwe, where relationships helped him raise funds for a United Nations trip to Sweden, he explains how connection, trust, and intentional communication shape every major outcome in business and life. He breaks down five key relationship pillars: self, family, team, partners and vendors, and patients.  From prioritizing health, spirituality, and self-awareness to protecting family time, nurturing your team, strengthening vendor relationships, and creating deeper patient trust, this episode challenges dentists to look beyond production, collections, and case acceptance to the relationships driving those numbers. Dr. Allen reminds listeners that when life is all said and done, it will not be the KPIs we remember most, but the people closest to us and the connections we built along the way.

The United Nations has warned that nearly three million children could contract HIV by 2040, with more than half at risk of dying from AIDS-related illnesses if prevention and treatment efforts are not significantly expanded. The agency says the overwhelming majority of these infections are expected to occur in sub-Saharan Africa, where young people remain disproportionately affected by the epidemic. Amid these concerns, a major scientific breakthrough is offering new hope. Lenacapavir, a long-acting HIV prevention injection administered just twice a year, is being hailed as a potential game-changer, particularly for young people and others who struggle to adhere to daily prevention pills. In United States, Minnesota , the fentanyl epidemic continues to devastate families and communities, with overdose deaths leaving a lasting toll.Presenter: Nkechi Ogbonna Producers: Blessing Aderogba Technical Producer: Herbert Masua Senior Producer: Keikantse Shumba Editors: Charles Gitonga and Maryam Abdalla

Hello, and welcome to Entangled! The podcast where we explore the science of consciousness, the true nature of reality, and what it means to be a spiritual being having a human experience. I'm your host Jordan Youkilis, and today I'm joined again by Dr. Peter Petropolus, in an interview recorded April 3, 2026.In this conversation, Dr. P and I discuss the RFK & Trump alliance and their battle against Deep State. We trace the origins of the Deep State back the British Empire's systems of control. We consider the American Revolution & Civil War and the role of foreign influence in those conflicts. Next, we discuss Israel, Iran, British Petroleum, and the importance of Middle Eastern control. We discuss Trump's ties to Jeffrey Epstein and the efforts he's taken to bring down global human trafficking networks.We consider the ties of between the City of London, drug & human trafficking, money laundering, war profiteering, and market manipulation. Peter describes the differences between the Anglo-Dutch Imperial economy and American economic philosophy. Next, we discuss the differences between the Board of Peace and the United Nations.From there, we consider the hoax of climate catastrophism and consider the practicality of alternative & free energies. Peter describes the importance of DOGE, identifying corruption in the system, and in breaking USAID & its associated NGOs. We then speculate as to whether JFK & RFK could have taken a different approach in the 60s to take down the British imperial system.Peter and I then describe this system coming out of WWII. We describe how the oligarchy has used color revolutions and civil unrest to divide nations and corrupt government institutions. We highlight the 2020 BLM / Summer of love riots and their usefulness in stealing the 2020 election through mail in ballots, electronic voting machines, & the COVID pandemic.Next, Peter assesses RFK Jr.'s first year in office. We discuss the importance of breaking the veil of disillusionment in the individual's journey for truth. From there, we discuss the ties of Jeffrey Epstein & Peter Mandelson, the 2008 Global Financial Crisis, and the importance of insider trading in facilitating wealth creation for the cabal. We focus on 9/11 and the financial crimes committed by Epstein and his associates. The conversation concludes with a discussion on the declassification of government corruption.

The ocean produces about half the oxygen we breathe, absorbs roughly 30% of the carbon dioxide we emit, and takes up about 90% of the excess heat those emissions trap, according to the United Nations. It is the planet's largest life-support system — and also its least-funded one. Of the 17 UN Sustainable Development Goals, the goal for life below water consistently draws the least money. Canada, which has the longest coastline in the world, is trying to flip that equation, and you can watch it happen close to real time.Our guest this week is Kendra MacDonald, CEO of Canada's Ocean Supercluster, a national, industry-led effort to grow what's come to be called the blue economy. Under her leadership, the Supercluster has grown into a community of roughly 1,000 members co-investing in more than 150 projects. She came to the role after 25 years at Deloitte, where she served as Chief Audit Executive, and she runs it from St. John's, Newfoundland. The model is built on co-investment: at least two companies put money in, often alongside Indigenous communities, researchers, and global corporations, so no single player carries the risk alone. The projects range from graphene hull coatings that cut a ship's fuel use to wave-powered desalination and the $4.4 million Membertou Electric Lobster Boat, billed as Canada's first zero-emission commercial fishing vessel, led by the Membertou First Nation.Kendra's thesis fits in seven words: you can go faster alone, but farther together. In our conversation, she's candid about where that gets hard — most of these collaborations are small companies that don't individually hold every capability, and the upfront work of sorting out who owns which piece of intellectual property is what separates the partnerships that succeed from the ones that stall. She's just as candid about the catch: the Supercluster is funded by the Government of Canada to de-risk small Canadian firms, and when those firms succeed, they're often acquired by international buyers — the value-capture problem at the heart of every public innovation program. That tension between strong science and thin capital, she says, keeps her up at night, and it points back to the blue-finance gap. It also shapes how she talks about aquaculture, which in 2022 surpassed wild capture as the world's main source of farmed aquatic animals, according to the UN Food and Agriculture Organization, and is now the fastest-growing source of animal protein. Kendra rejects the idea that ocean health and productivity are in trade-off, arguing that a healthier ocean is more productive. And just before we recorded, the Trump administration reopened nearly half a million square miles of the Pacific to commercial fishing, the third such rollback in little more than a year. One model treats the ocean as a commons to protect and co-invest in; the other treats marine protection as an obstacle to clear. Kendra thinks the contrast opens a door for Canada to lead.To learn more about the Ocean Supercluster, visit oceansupercluster.ca. MacDonald writes about ocean-economy investment on her Substack, Saltwater Signals, and she's easy to find on LinkedIn.

Recorded at the Battle of Ideas festival 2025 on Saturday 18 October at Church House and the Abbey Centre, Westminster. ORIGINAL INTRODUCTION Genocide, Holocaust, Never Again. Phrases that once conjured up only one image: the Nazis' systematic attempt to eliminate the entire Jewish people and eradicate Jewish culture, identity and future generations of Jews from the face of the earth. It was once held that the Holocaust was unique in its horror with no precedent in history. Can we confidently say this view still holds today? Today, the word ‘holocaust' is increasingly used as a free-floating catch-all to describe many geopolitical events or even general human evil. Even Auschwitz, a death camp designed for the genocide of the Jews, has been turned into an all-purpose symbol of human cruelty. The proposed Learning Centre to be built as part of the controversial Holocaust Memorial in Victoria Garden, next to Parliament, promises a ‘high-tech immersive experience', expected to last only 45 minutes, that will reference a wide range of other international atrocities, such as Rwanda and colonial-era massacres, with the aim to promote equality and diversity in general. More specifically, these terms are being applied to the war in Gaza – particularly since Hamas's attack on 7 October 2023.  Israelis are increasingly likened to Nazis, guilty of war crimes and ethnic cleansing, or settler-colonists aiming at the complete destruction and replacement of Palestinians and their culture. The United Nations, Amnesty International, Médecins Sans Frontières and countless individual governments have proclaimed a genocide in Gaza, a claim strongly denied by Israel and its supporters who condemn the veracity of these accusations and what they refer to as ‘Holocaust relativism'. In a new book, The World After Gaza, author Pankaj Mishra brings together the narratives of both the Holocaust and slavery-colonialism, arguing Nazism is simply the logical extension of colonialism. The Israeli government, according to Mishra, is guilty of both. Celebrity social-justice activist Naomi Klein wrote in the Guardian last year that we are entering a new intellectual era, one in which people are openly asking if the Holocaust should ‘be seen exclusively as a Jewish catastrophe, or something more universal'. Klein goes on to argue that perhaps the Holocaust was not ‘a unique rupture in European history' but rather ‘a homecoming of earlier colonial genocides'. What are the consequences of this ‘dejudification of the Holocaust', as Brendan O'Neill calls it in his recent book, After the Pogrom? How can the public, especially new generations, understand the true nature of this industrialised act of anti-Semitic barbarism – and to even remember that the Jews were the targets – when the Holocaust is wrenched out of its historical context? Are authors like Mishra and Klein right when they say it is this very sanctifying of the Holocaust in Western history that wilfully ignores crimes of equal magnitude, including what is happening in Gaza today? SPEAKERS Daniel Ben-Ami journalist; creator, Radicalism of Fools project on rethinking anti-Semitism; author, Ferraris for All: in defence of economic progress Naomi Gryn writer; filmmaker Samuel Rubinstein postgraduate historian and writer Dr Jake Wallis Simons author, Never Again?

“The most vulnerable are almost always children, because they don't have any ability to change their circumstance. They don't start these wars. They are powerless to stop them, but they suffer so much in these situations.”Nada Tawfik speaks to Catherine Russell, executive director of UNICEF, the United Nations agency responsible for protecting and supporting children.Before taking up the role in 2022, she spent decades in government and diplomacy, including as assistant to President Joe Biden as well as serving in senior roles at the US State Department focused on global women's issues and international development. Now leading UNICEF at a time of unprecedented conflict, displacement and humanitarian need, she talks about the impact of aid cuts and the challenges facing children around the world.

As Washington and Tehran move toward a deal to end their war, have months of conflict simply restored the status quo? Former German Foreign Minister and current President of the U.N. General Assembly Annalena Baerbock discusses the diplomatic difficulties facing the United Nations. Then, as President Trump abandons his calls for regime change in Iran, journalists Bozorgmehr Sharafedin and Yeganeh Torbati discuss their new book 'Stolen Revolution' - a deep dive into why successive uprisings in Iran have failed. Amid World Cup fever, Christina MacFarlane reports on a football club in England helping bereaved fathers find connection and support. On World Refugee Day, Christiane speaks with 'The Pitt' star and International Rescue Committee ambassador Sepideh Moafi, who was born in a refugee camp after her family fled Iran, alongside the IRC's Sherine Ibrahim. From the archives, we look back at Christiane's report from the height of the European migration crisis, when she joined a rescue operation in the Mediterranean in 2015. And finally, as Americans mark Juneteenth, a reminder of the words of lawyer and activist Bryan Stevenson who reflects on the importance of remembering both the victory of emancipation and the enduring legacy of slavery.

“AI companies are taking advantage of our natural tendency to ascribe an inner life to our interlocutors. They profit when you think the chatbot cares.” — Kate O'Neill If we don't like someone, we call them a fascist. And if we like them, we say they are a humanist. The F and H words. Both meaningless in our sloppy, bot-infested age. But maybe I'm just a cranky anti-humanist. Even anti-human — whatever that means. Or maybe I'm being harsh (moi?). Humanism certainly is all the rage in our AI age. Corporate consultant Kate O'Neill likes the word so much that she has built her brand around it. The self-styled “Tech Humanist” is the author of Tech Humanist, the host of the Tech Humanist Show, and a frequent speaker on the TED circuit. So how to use the H word without sounding like Claude or ChatGPT? O'Neill argues that what makes us human is our quest for meaning. The M word. That's what distinguishes us from the bots. But as Kazuo Ishiguro warns in Klara and the Sun, we are fast arriving at a point when the bots are better than us at extracting meaning from the world. So did Kate O'Neill pass the Keen Test (reverse of Turing)? Did the Tech Humanist say anything that would have eluded Claude? Or have we already arrived at Ishiguro's bleak terminus where the bots are more skilled at infusing the H word with meaning than we are? Five Takeaways •       What Is Tech Humanism? Aligning Business and Human Outcomes: O'Neill's definition: technology shapes human experiences at scale, and it does so almost always in service of a business objective that is accelerating its advance. The purpose of tech humanism is to find the business objectives that need to be met and align them with human outcomes that are rewarding and fulfilling for people. This means using technology to amplify the alignment between business and human outcomes — rather than simply making the business more successful. It is, she acknowledges, not the habit of most business leaders. But it is a habit that can be developed. •       You Sound Like a Bot: Andrew's Challenge: Andrew's opening challenge: O'Neill sounds exactly like a well-prompted language model. She uses the h word (humanism) and the m word (meaning). What is she saying that Claude couldn't say? O'Neill's answer: meaning is not a word but a phenomenon. It is what emerges from the combination of embodied sensory experience and language — the way humans encode meaningful experiences with language in their brains. As far as we know, this is a uniquely human capability. Machines process information statistically. Humans process it meaningfully. That distinction is, she argues, precisely the gap that matters. •       AI Companies Profit When You Think the Chatbot Cares: O'Neill's sharpest observation: we are constituted to look for inner life in the things we interact with. We give nicknames to our cars and talk to our toasters. At this early stage of interacting with large language models, it is entirely natural to assume there is a consciousness on the other side. The problem: AI companies are actively taking advantage of that natural tendency. They profit from it. The more people believe the chatbot genuinely understands them, the more they use it. That manipulation is real and it is working. Developing critical thinking about AI interactions is, O'Neill argues, now a form of self-defence. •       The Intersection of Meaning and Scale: O'Neill's key contribution to the tech humanism conversation: the problem with technology is not technology itself but the scale at which it operates. A single interaction with a biased algorithm is annoying. A billion such interactions, aggregated and accelerated by a business objective, reshapes society. The tech humanist's job is to ensure that when we deploy technology at scale, the outcomes remain aligned with human meaning rather than with the extraction of human attention. This, she says, is both a business problem and a civilisational one. The two are, in her view, inseparable. •       A Message to 2126: What We Valued About Ourselves: Andrew asks O'Neill: it is 2126. Humans and machines are indistinguishable. What do you say to whoever is listening? O'Neill's answer: hello from the past. What we valued about ourselves was our ability to understand each other — intellectually, emotionally, sympathetically, empathetically. We could come into our interactions by holding space for what the other person feels and cares about. And we could, even when we disagreed, create more shared understanding by virtue of having the conversation. That is a beautiful thing, she says, whether we are distinctly human and distinctly machine or increasingly a blend of both. About the Guest Kate O'Neill is founder and CEO of KO Insights and is widely known as “the Tech Humanist.” She was one of the first 100 employees at Netflix and has held roles at Toshiba and founded the analytics firm [meta]marketer.

Foundations of Amateur Radio The other day I was asked a question on social media. Having answered this question several times before, I admittedly .. initially .. groaned, then provided the bare bones of a response. A little while later, I recalled that I had provided a detailed response to this same question, as it turns out, five years earlier on a different social media platform, so I added another response that included the link to that answer. It all still felt very incomplete and inadequate and I couldn't leave it alone. Which leads me to the anxiety generating question and my response to it. Here goes: "[h]ow do you get into amateur radio? Is there like a 101 guide you could link me?" This is a question I've been answering for quite some time. Searching for the word "start" across the titles of my podcasts, there's 17 articles on the topic. So, having searched previously and fruitlessly for something resembling a universal answer, this to disclaim that I didn't look again and perhaps someone else has done something about it, I started a new project, because of course I did. I named it: "Getting Started in Amateur Radio" and published it on my GitHub repository. The intent of the project is to give the visitor a gentle introduction to the hobby, provide some idea of why you need a license, how it's different from things like the Citizen's Band, how you'll be starting on a life-long journey and introducing the concept that each country is slightly different. Think of it as an onramp into the hobby and our community. To deal with those, essentially legal differences between countries, I also consulted the International Telecommunications Union, the ITU, and created a folder structure of Regions and within it a folder for each country that the ITU as a United Nations specialised agency recognises. Before you ask, Yes, I'm aware that the UN doesn't recognise some countries that you might. I don't know how the International Amateur Radio Union, the IARU, our global representative body deals with that. If you know, get in touch. Since I'm based in Australia, I started with populating the information there. It contains some information about the regulator, representative bodies, callsigns, links to more information and hopefully initial information sufficient to "find" the community. It's still a work in progress, but it gives a good idea of the intent. Now comes the hard part. You. My log processing tool, "awstats", tells me that there are 209 different countries in my logs that represent you listening, reading and sharing my articles. So, I daresay that between all of us there is enough to cover pretty much all of the globe and with it, personal knowledge on how to become an amateur in your country. So, as one amateur to another, let's get on-air and make some noise! Let's try and document what's needed to become an amateur in your country. Please supply issue tickets, patches, emails, whatever you like, to get the information pertinent to your experience into one central place, so next time someone asks any of us: "How do you get into amateur radio?", there's a place we can share, that you contributed to and that contains the information pertinent to anyone who'd like to play. Look forward to hearing from you. I'm Onno VK6FLAB

On In The Market with Janet Parshall this week, Delano Squire joined Janet to talk about the impact of welfare, feminism and other factors on the decline and eventual collapse of the American black family. Dr. Donald Critchlow offered a sobering look at history to see how good ideas can get twisted in the minds of those who see themselves as revolutionary prophets. Dr. Corey Miller explained why Mormonism is NOT Christian through his own story of conversion and detailed the differences between the teachings of the Bible and the LDS church. The United Nations wants to give human rights to the natural world. Wesley Smith, explained what’s behind this latest effort. Finding truth in the marketplace of ideas is not always easy. Janet and Craig invite you back to their radio classroom to learn how to use the bible as the as the straight stick of truth against the ideas being sold in that marketplace.Become a Parshall Partner: http://moodyradio.org/donateto/inthemarket/partnersSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The ocean is facing some of the biggest challenges in its history. Rising temperatures, marine heatwaves, coral bleaching, habitat loss, and overfishing continue to put pressure on marine ecosystems around the world. If you only follow the headlines, it can feel like ocean conservation is losing the battle. But hidden within a recent United Nations ocean report is a surprising reason for optimism. While ocean health continues to decline in many areas, the systems designed to protect the ocean are getting stronger. Countries are expanding marine protected areas, improving international cooperation, deploying satellite monitoring technology, and developing new agreements to manage the ocean more effectively. In this episode of How to Protect the Ocean, Andrew Lewin explores the difference between ocean health and ocean governance, and why that distinction matters. You'll learn why conservation progress often feels slow, how stronger governance creates the foundation for long-term recovery, and why recognizing meaningful progress is essential if we want to stay motivated and continue protecting the ocean.

The Chinese government this week unveiled a new vision for the emerging post-American-led international order. In a new white paper, Beijing argued that the existing global system does not need to be replaced or rebuilt. Instead, it called for the United Nations to remain at the center of global governance while giving developing countries a greater voice in international decision-making. Eric and Cobus discuss China's push for global governance reform and why many African countries are backing Beijing's position. Plus, Kenya becomes the latest front in the contest between China and Taiwan after Nairobi acquiesced to Beijing's pressure and blocked Taiwanese delegates from attending an oceans forum in Mombasa.

Since 1967, Israel has built and expanded settlements across occupied Palestine, fragmenting Palestinian communities and reshaping the landscape. In this episode of This Is Palestine, Dr. Jad Ishaq, Director General of the Applied Research Institute - Jerusalem (ARIJ) traces how Israeli governments have used military orders, legal mechanisms, and political agreements to facilitate the expansion of settlements and the confiscation of Palestinian land. From Jerusalem to the Jordan Valley, he explains how a process described as temporary became permanent, leaving Palestinians increasingly confined to isolated enclaves while settlement expansion accelerates.

Is Trump's latest Iran ceasefire a brilliant strategy or a dangerous mistake?Before panicking, let's remember one basic reality:Iran is never going to agree to a final deal that permanently gives up its nuclear ambitions.Yes, the reported 60-day ceasefire framework looks terrible. Iran's leaders are celebrating and portraying it as a victory. They want the Muslim world to believe they forced America to back down.Maybe they did.Maybe Trump is playing a deeper game.The truth is that none of us know.But I believe the more important question is not what Trump is doing.The more important question is what God is teaching the Jewish people.For decades, too many Israelis convinced themselves that our security ultimately depends on Washington, foreign aid, and international support.Then came October 7th.And that illusion shattered.Over the past months, Israel rediscovered something essential: sovereignty.When Israel struck Iran's military infrastructure, we acted as a sovereign nation. We did not wait for permission. We took responsibility for our own survival.Now comes the real test.Can we continue acting independently when pressure arrives?Can Israel make decisions based on Israeli security needs rather than foreign expectations?The discoveries in southern Lebanon make that question even more urgent. Hezbollah built an enormous invasion infrastructure designed to carry out an October 7th-style massacre across northern Israel.The old assumptions failed.The old deterrence failed.The old border failed.Israel cannot return to that reality.Friends can advise. Allies can assist.But only Israel bears responsibility for protecting Israeli lives.This is why I believe God is testing us.Not whether Trump succeeds or fails.Not whether Iran signs a final agreement.But whether the Jewish people have finally learned what sovereignty means.Our future does not depend on Washington.It does not depend on Tehran.It does not depend on the United Nations.It depends on our willingness to act responsibly as a sovereign nation and place our trust in Hashem.That is the real story.Am Yisrael Chai.Join Our Whatsapp Channel: https://chat.whatsapp.com/GkavRznXy731nxxRyptCMvFollow us on Twitter: https://x.com/AviAbelowJoin our Telegram Channel: https://t.me/aviabelowpulseFollow us on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/pulse_of_israel/?hl=enPulse of Israel on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/IsraelVideoNetworkVisit Our Website - https://pulseofisrael.com/Donate to Pulse of Israel: https://pulseofisrael.com/boost-this-video/

JUN. 11, 2026"Overcome evil with good"."Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good." Ro 12:21 NKJVDuring the Korean War, a South Korean civilian was arrested by the communists and ordered to be shot. When the young communist leader learned that the prisoner in his charge was the head of an orphanage caring for young children, he decided to spare him. Instead, he ordered the execution of the man's son. The nineteen-year-old son was shot in the presence of his father. After the war, the young communist leader was captured by United Nations forces and condemned to death. But before the sentence could be carried out, the Christian whose son had been killed pleaded for the life of the killer. He argued that the communist had been young when he ordered the execution, and that he really didn't know what he was doing. "Give him to me," the man requested, "and I will train him." Unusual though it was, the United Nations forces granted his request, and the father took the murderer of his son into his own home and took care of him. The Bible says, "Love never fails" (1Co 13:8 NKJV). And by being exposed to the love of God, that young communist leader became a Christian and eventually went on to become the pastor of a church. Have you been hurt, betrayed, or treated unfairly? Instead of retaliating in anger, handle it scripturally: "Never pay back evil with more evil...Never take revenge. Leave that to the righteous anger of God. For the Scriptures say, 'I will take revenge; I will pay them back,' says the Lord...Don't let evil conquer you, but conquer evil by doing good" (Ro 12:17, 19, 21 NLT)."Overcome evil with good" "Never take revenge."Share This DevotionalSend us Fan MailSupport the showChanging Lives | Building Strong Family | Impacting Our Community For Jesus Christ!

Why is Lebanon one of the most important countries in the Middle East—and why do Iran, Hezbollah, Israel, Syria, and the United States all have a stake in its future? Former U.S. National Security Council official Hagar Chemali explains the history, geopolitics, and the future of one of the world's most strategically important countries. Episode 384 | Live From America Podcast Lebanon is a small country—but it has been at the center of some of the Middle East's biggest conflicts for decades. In this episode, Hatem sits down with former National Security Council official and former U.S. Mission to the United Nations spokesperson Hagar Chemali to explain why Lebanon matters so much to regional and global politics.

The discussion also examines the recent Iran-Israel conflict, the strategic decisions made by President Trump, whether military action achieved its objectives, and why diplomacy may have ultimately strengthened Iran's negotiating position. If you've ever wondered why Lebanon appears in almost every major Middle East crisis, this episode explains the history, the politics, and what could happen next. Topics Covered Why Lebanon is strategically important The origins of Hezbollah Iran's long-term regional strategy Lebanon's struggle for sovereignty Why so many countries compete for influence in Lebanon The Iran-Israel conflict explained Trump's strategy toward Iran Why regime change is so difficult Intelligence failures and military strategy The future of Lebanon Can Hezbollah actually disappear?

If you're running a multi-location, operations-heavy business in the eight-figure range and you still can't name three people who could step into a critical leadership role tomorrow, this episode is for you.Alex D. Tremble sits down with Jamila Cowan, NA Public Sector Programs & Partnerships Strategy Lead at Dell Technologies, where she has spent nearly two decades in senior leadership roles spanning global service delivery, sustainability, ESG partnerships, and cross-sector strategy. Jamila has represented Dell at the United Nations, the World Bank, and the White House Leadership Development Program, leading high-stakes, multi-stakeholder initiatives across government, education, and industry.In this conversation, Jamila and Alex dig into one of the most overlooked proactivity problems in growing companies: the failure to intentionally develop the next tier of leadership before the seat is empty.You'll learn:- Why reactive talent development leaves CEOs as the permanent decision bottleneck across locations- How exposure, not just training, builds leaders who can represent you in the rooms you can't be in- What happens to execution speed and trust when leaders are never brought into critical decisions before they need to make them- Why the loudest person in the room is rarely the best choice for your next key role and what to look for instead- How failing to communicate through change causes your team to fill in the gaps with their own conclusions, and why that kills executionThis episode is for you if: you've delayed succession planning because it never feels urgent until someone walks out the door, and you realize nobody is ready to step up.Listen now, and take the free Scorecard Diagnostic to find your specific leadership bottleneck:

The modern relationship between the Vatican and the State of Israel is rooted in a long history of hostility between Judaism and Roman Catholicism. Through the centuries, popes and theologians marginalized the Jewish people, assigning them collective guilt for the death of Jesus Christ and claiming that the sacred territory of Palestine was the true patrimony of the Roman Catholic Church. With the advent of political Zionism in the nineteenth century, Catholic fears of a Jewish-dominated Palestine were renewed. Contesting Zion: The Vatican, American Catholics, and the Partition of Palestine (McGill-Queen's UP, 2025) examines the relationship between the Vatican and the Zionist movement from the Balfour Declaration in 1917 to the first decade of Israeli statehood. Adrian Ciani considers the transnational nature of Catholic responses to Zionism and the creation of Israel, with a focus on the Catholic Church in the United States. From the 1920s through the 1950s, American Catholic leaders became crucial intermediaries between Washington and the Vatican. Speaking as both loyal American citizens and devout Catholics, they were uniquely positioned to articulate the Vatican's policy objectives to the American government, including on the future of Palestine. American Catholics were also instrumental in advocating the church's Palestine policy at the United Nations, playing a central role in the Holy See's attempts to shape the twentieth-century international order.

The United Nations has welcomed the peace deal between the U-S and Iran, acknowledging that the agreement represents a critical step towards the peaceful settlement of the conflict. But Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has distanced his government from the peace deal, saying he respects the decision but will continue to protect his own country's interests by taking action against Hezbollah in Lebanon. The peace deal depends on a ceasefire on all fronts of the war - which includes Lebanon. So how secure is the deal? - アメリカとイランは今週金曜日、スイスで和平合意に署名する予定です。Listen to SBS Japanese Audio on Tue, Thu and Fri from 1pm on SBS 3.Replays from 10pm on Tue, Thu and Sat on SBS1.

In this inspiring episode of Most Memorable Journeys, I welcome Patricia Elias, an international human rights lawyer, women's rights advocate, humanitarian, and global campaigner for peace.Born in Lebanon and working on the international stage, Patricia has dedicated her life to advancing human rights, gender equality, and the meaningful participation of women in decision-making. Her remarkable journey has taken her from legal advocacy to the halls of the United Nations, where she has worked tirelessly to ensure that women's voices are heard where it matters most.During our conversation, Patricia shares the personal experiences that shaped her mission, the challenges she has faced along the way, and the lessons she has learned from working across cultures, countries, and communities. We explore the importance of courage, resilience, leadership, and the power of using your voice to create lasting change.A major focus of our discussion is Patricia's global campaign "No Peace Without Women," a movement calling for women to be fully represented in peace negotiations and decision-making processes. Despite decades of international commitments, women remain significantly underrepresented in peace talks worldwide, even though research consistently shows that peace agreements are more sustainable when women are involved. Patricia's campaign aims to transform these commitments into action and ensure that women have a seat at every table where the future of nations is decided.We also discuss:Patricia's journey from Lebanon to international advocacyHuman rights and humanitarian work around the worldWhy women's leadership is essential for lasting peaceThe importance of dialogue, empathy, and inclusionThe role each of us can play in creating a better futureHer vision for the next generation of leadersThis is a conversation about purpose, hope, courage, and the belief that one person truly can make a difference.Support the Global CampaignPatricia invites listeners to join the international movement "No Peace Without Women" by signing the petition and helping amplify the message that sustainable peace requires women's leadership and participation.
