Using newly available government records, private papers, and documents obtained through Freedom of Information, The Secret History of UK Vetting from 1909 to the Present (Bloomsbury, 2025) by Dr. Daniel Lomas tells the secret story of UK security vetting from 1909 to the present. Although Britain avoided American-style red-baiting and McCarthy-like witch-hunts, successive UK governments have, like their 'Five Eyes' allies, implemented security procedures to protect government, defence and industry from so-called 'subversives' and 'fellow travellers'.Officially, from 1948 the British government applied political tests to civil servants, a process extended to 'character defects' in the early 1950s with the introduction of 'positive vetting'. However, an unofficial purge had taken place for much longer, facing political backlashes as an infringement of 'civil liberties' and suppression of free speech. Although it's been argued that Britain's secret purge had little impact, this study looks at the experiences of those removed from the 'secret state', those LGBT and BAME individuals discriminated against by government, and the impact of government policy generally, while studying the responses of Ministers and civil servants to spy scandals and international events.Drawing from newly released archival material, Freedom of Information releases and interviews, this book offers new insights into the scope of government security checks on civil servants, defence contractors and armed forces personnel from Edwardian 'spy scares' and the inter-war period, to the Cold War and present day. This interview was conducted by Dr. Miranda Melcher whose book focuses on post-conflict military integration, understanding treaty negotiation and implementation in civil war contexts, with qualitative analysis of the Angolan and Mozambican civil wars.

On this episode of Multifamily Mastery, John Casmon interviews Zach Winner, a former attorney turned full-time real estate investor who shares how he transitioned from single-family rentals to large-scale commercial real estate. Zach breaks down his "Value Add Plus" strategy, which focuses on buying newer properties from developers and increasing NOI through underutilized revenue streams and advantageous tax incentives, rather than heavy capex renovations. He emphasizes the importance of landlord-friendly markets and reveals some of the 25 metrics his team uses to vet markets—like the presence of STEM jobs and evolving tenant laws. The conversation also touches on 1031 exchanges, a little-known 1245 exchange tactic, and the steady returns found in Midwest markets.

August 13, 2025: Eric Utzinger, Co-Founder and Chief Client Officer at Revuud, tackles the world of healthcare consulting. Drawing from 15 years in healthcare consulting, Eric reveals how the industry shifted around 2013, creating a system where traditional staffing firms often add little value beyond letterhead while charging substantial markups. What happens when technology enables direct access to pre-vetted talent pools? The conversation explores how marketplace platforms can eliminate intermediary costs while maintaining quality control, and why the assumption that higher costs equal better consultants may be costing health systems more than they realize. Eric addresses the critical balance between project success, talent vetting, and transparent pricing in an industry where finding the right IT expertise quickly can make or break major implementations.

Alex (SO/SP 6w7 693) joins us for a deep dive into the often-misunderstood inner terrain of the Social Six — where loyalty is a vigilant scan for danger, and the mind's ceaseless activity is less about worry than about building a livable world. From the outset, Alex speaks to the dissonance of being typed as a Six, resisting the caricatures and one-dimensional projections that cling to the type. We explore the deep patterns of fear and mental over-responsibility that began in childhood: a sense of being a small, visible target in a world ruled by unseen authority. Alex opens up about health anxiety, asexuality, and the complexity of labels — both how they can offer coherence and how they can confine. Alex also brings in the character of Zuko from our shared favorite show Avatar: The Last Airbender as a mirror of his own journey — from rigid loyalty to false authority, through crisis, to a reclamation of inner truth. Together, we explore how Six navigates the labyrinth of mental gates that must be opened before love can be received, and how trust — in the self, in others, in life — is painstakingly built, tested, and sometimes, finally, allowed.LINKSLearn at The Enneagram Schoolhttps://theenneagramschool.com/Intro Coursehttps://www.theenneagramschool.com/intro-enneagram-courseGet Typedhttps://www.enneagrammer.com/Sinsomnia Podcast (Dreams)https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/sinsomnia/id1684154994House of Enneagramhttps://www.youtube.com/@houseofenneagram TIMESTAMPS00:00 - Intro02:31 - Participating in Enneagram communities, creating memes while waiting for typing results, reacting to being type 6, unpacking the projections onto 6, "finding a mental home"12:27 - Being a 'cog in the machine', erasing individualization, a "thought-terminating cliche", having mental tweezers 17:10 - Childhood memories, fearing authority larger than parents, fear/anxiety of being a "sitting duck" to external powers23:36 - "Going haywire", the vetting mechanism of 6, fearing and joking about death29:01 - Ketamine treatment, expanding perspectives assisting with anxiety, limited "mental real estate", social narratives and afterthoughts, an unreliable narrator38:09 - 6s not taking responsibility for personal perspectives, pinging off of others, judgment off of 'needing others', self-honoring and life-giving, self-sufficiency narratives46:03 - 6s archetypal connection to labels, being asexual, attention to collective ideals/gaze52:30 - self-deprecation being limiting, therapy, social rejection, deconstructing 'what I deserve to have/want", identifying the super-ego59:11 - not making progress, fear of social vulnerability, 6's inner splitting, exploring the underdog position01:06:59 - Avatar the Last Airbender; relating to the Zuko character arch, shedding the false authorities, enacting personal will, changing inherited reality perspectives01:16:22 - 'vetting' self-love, matrix of mental gates, a core need to have 'right'...

In today's episode of Zen and the Art of Real Estate Investing, Jonathan welcomes Tommy Visaggio, Founder and Managing Member of Viza Property Management, for a wide-ranging conversation on investing smart, scaling responsibly, and managing real estate with a long-term mindset. Tommy began his journey with no industry connections, taking an unpaid internship in finance that provided him with early exposure to commercial real estate deals and loan structures. From there, he rolled up his sleeves, learned through experience, and built both a real estate portfolio and a property management company that serves clients throughout New Jersey. Tommy shares how his early deals—flipping homes and buying multifamily properties—taught him the importance of buying right, learning from mistakes, and staying involved with tenants and municipalities. As he expanded into small mixed-use buildings, he discovered the value in providing quality rental units and maintaining strong relationships with local governments. His business grew not just from acquisitions, but also from his ability to self-manage properties and eventually turn that experience into a scalable property management company. The conversation also dives into the business of managing for others. Tommy discusses his approach to building systems, earning trust from landlords, and gradually expanding into third-party management and HOA contracts. Jonathan and Tommy discuss how effective property management can protect investors from risk, enhance tenant retention, and generate more consistent long-term income. They also touch on mixed-use properties as a way to combine residential stability with the upside of commercial retail, especially in emerging Main Street communities. Tommy's approach emphasizes calculated growth, risk management, and keeping things personal. Whether he's onboarding a new HOA or helping a landlord turn around a rental, he stays focused on systems, communication, and protecting all parties involved. For newer investors or landlords considering management support, this episode offers a clear look at how to build wisely and why the right relationships matter more than ever. In this episode, you will hear: Starting with a finance background and scaling into real estate What early renovation mistakes taught Tommy about risk and pricing Why South Jersey offers better yield and fewer regulatory challenges How to handle tenant relationships in lower-rent markets Building a property management firm from internal systems Vetting landlords just as carefully as managing tenants Expanding into HOA management and how it's different from rentals Follow and Review: We'd love for you to follow us if you haven't yet.

If you've ever felt like your design clients are unclear, unsure, or unexpectedly intense mid-project, it's likely not a personality issue. It's a systems issue.

The President is considering US strikes on Iran, the state department starts up Visa interviews again, with new restrictions, and social security running dry is once again making headlines. Get the facts first on Evening Wire.

U.S. President Donald Trump keeps everyone guessing if he's decided whether to join Israel's strikes against Iran. The prospect of U.S. involvement in Iran has laid bare a divide in Trump's MAGA base. And the administration resumes student visa appointments but will scrutinize applications' online presence for any hostility towards the U.S. *Note: This episode has been corrected to remove a reference to this being the sixth day of Israel-Iran attacks.

On Tuesday's Mark Levin Show, an Egyptian national, illegally in the U.S. allegedly attacked Jewish Americans, including a Holocaust survivor, in Boulder, Colorado.  The Biden administration's lax vetting and work permit issuance enabled this incident. How many people do we have like this in America? Immigration should benefit American citizens, who decide who enters and why. Immigrants must respect and contribute to the country or leave. It's not for importing Islamists, Marxists, criminals, spies, or anti-Semites.  Also, several questions come to mind on the published reports of an Iran deal. How do we know the Iranians will reveal all enrichment sites and enriched material to this consortium?  Will we have access to their country to inspect anywhere we wish?  Won't the Iranians play along for a few years and then, after the initial period and after the Trump presidency is over, thumb its nose at the world and breakout?  Later, Sen Ted Cruz calls in to discuss the Democrats and federal judges who hare undermining the Constitution and the rule of law. Democrats are supporting lawless rouge judges who issue nationwide injunctions to block the Trump administration's agenda. He also criticizes Democrats for hypocrisy, pointing to their silence when mobs protested at Supreme Court justices' homes and their attacks on justices like Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito. Afterwards, Mark contrasts Alexander Hamilton's vision of a strong central government with Jefferson and Madison's preference for limited federal power and strong state authority. Hamilton's ideas, like a lifelong executive and senators, were rejected by most framers, who favored state-centric governance, as Madison emphasized in Federalist 45. Hamilton's support for implied powers (Federalist 33) appeals to modern advocates of activist government.  Finally, Miranda Devine calls in to discuss Anthony Bernal, Jill Biden's chief of staff, who played a role in concealing Joe Biden's cognitive decline during his presidency. Described as Jill's “work husband,” Bernal is portrayed as a powerful, behind-the-scenes figure who wielded enormous influence in the White House. Learn more about your ad choices.
