How does brain activity explain your perceptions and your actions? That's what neuroscientists ask. How does the interaction between brain, body, and environment explain your perceptions and actions? That's what ecological psychologists ask… sometimes leaving the brain out of the equation altogether. These different approaches to perception and action come with different terms, concepts, underlying assumptions, and targets of explanations. So what happens when neuroscientists are inspired by ecological psychology but don't necessarily want take on, or are ignorant of, the fundamental principles underlying ecological psychology? This happens all the time, like how AI was "inspired" by the most rudimentary understanding of how brains work, and took terms from neuroscience like neuron, neural network, and so on, as stand-ins for their models. This has in some sense re-defined what people mean by neuron, and neural network, and how they function and how we should think of them. Modern neuroscience, with better data collecting tools, has taken a turn toward more naturalistic experimental paradigms to study how brains operate in more ecologically valid situations than what has mostly been used in the history of neuroscience - highly controlled tasks and experimental setups that arguably have very little to do with how organisms evolved to interact with the world to do cognitive things. One problem with this turn is that we neuroscientists don't have ready-made theoretical tools to deal with the less constrained massive amounts of data the new approach affords. This has led some neuroscientists to seek those theoretical concepts elsewhere. One of those places that offers those theoretical tools is ecological psychology, developed by James and Eleanor Gibson in the mid-20th century, and continued since then by many adherents of the concepts introduced by ecological psychology. Those concepts are very specific with regard to how and what to explain regarding perception and action. Matthieu de Wit is an associate professor at Muhlenberg College in Pennsylvania, who runst the ECON Lab, as in Ecological Neuroscience. Luis Favela is an associate professor at Indiana University. He's been on before to talk about his book The Ecological Brain. And Vicente Raja is a research fellow at University of Murcia in Spain, and he's been on before to talk about ecological psychology and neuroscience. With their deep expertise in ecological psychology, they are keenly interested in how neuroscience write large adopts various facets of ecological psychology. Do neuroscientists have it right? Do they need to have it right? Is there something being lost in translation? How should neuroscientists adopt ecological psychology for an ecological neuroscience? That's what we're discussing today. More broadly, this is also a story about what it's like doing research that isn't part of the current mainstream approach, in this doing ecological psychology under the long shadow cast by the computational mechanistic neuro-centric dominant paradigm in neuroscience currently.

In de jaren tien schoten de platformondernemingen als paddenstoelen uit de grond. Onder de noemer ‘deeleconomie’ leken veel start-ups in die tijd niet alleen innovatief en modern, maar ook idealistisch. Bezitten was niet meer van deze tijd: iedereen zou alles gaan ‘delen’ met elkaar. Met zo'n ondernemersdroom startte ook Camptoo. De pitch van oprichter Martijn Peeters was kraakhelder: als je camper het hele jaar stilstaat, waarom verhuur je hem dan niet? Gewapend met dit verhaal haalden hij en zijn mede-oprichters telkens nieuwe financiering op om een digitaal platform uit de grond te stampen, waarop huurders en verhuurders van campers en caravans elkaar konden vinden. Deelplatformen Uber en Airbnb lieten ondertussen zien dat je klanten en leveranciers van producten en diensten lucratief kon verbinden, zónder zelf te investeren in het product of de dienst. Deze platforms werden steeds groter en bleken in de praktijk niet zo zeer idealistisch, maar gewoon groeiende bedrijven met een slim verdienmodel. Maar bij Camptoo bleek het lastig om winst te maken: het platform bleef maar geld kosten. Zelfs een opleving in coronatijd zette financieel te weinig zoden aan de dijk. Investeerders verloren langzaam maar zeker het vertrouwen. Toen een overname uiteindelijk niet doorging, ging Peeters wanhopig op zoek naar elke euro die hij maar kon vinden. Hij maakte daarbij niet altijd de beste beslissingen en op 26 oktober 2022 ging Camptoo bankroet. Te gast is curator en advocaat Stephanie de Wit van GMW Advocaten Onder curatoren Niet elk ondernemersavontuur eindigt met een notering in de Quote 500, niet elk bedrijf overleeft een flinke crisis, niet elke onderneming weet het financiële spel goed te spelen. En als alles misgaat, als de chaos regeert en schuldeisers aan de poort rammelen, dan breekt het tijdperk van de curator aan.

In this episode, we speak with Joel S. Wit, former U.S. State Department official and author of Fallout: The Inside Story of America's Failure to Disarm North Korea. Wit takes us inside decades of diplomatic efforts, behind-the-scenes negotiations, missed opportunities, and policy missteps that shaped North Korea's nuclear rise. We explore what went wrong, what could have been done differently, and what the future holds for nuclear diplomacy and global security.

Buffy the Vampire Slayer: "The Zeppo"Is this a penis metaphor? Yes, actually! This hilarious episode makes "normal guy" Xander Harris the main character on his own adventure as the apocalypse happens in the background, using him to interrogate toxic masculinity while satirizing and parodying the clichés and tropes of a typical Buffy episode. We get into a brief history of the titular Zeppo from the Marx Brothers, the real-life issues and abuses of Joss Whedon and Nicholas Brendon that make this episode complicated to revisit, and Cordelia Chase as a manifestation of Xander's negative self-talk.A proud part of⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠The Glitterjaw Queer Podcast Collective⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Tip us on Ko-Fi⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ |⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Gimmicks Website⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Email: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠gimmickspodcast@gmail.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ |⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠Bluesky⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ |⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Theme song:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠"Disco Tears" by Raven⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ |⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Creative Commons Attribution 3.0⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Sources: ⁠Passion of the Nerd's Buffy GuideTV Line Nicholas Brendon Interview⁠⁠ScienceFiction.com Interview with Nicholas Brendon⁠⁠The Marx Brothers: Anarchy, Wit, and the Birth of Cinematic Comedy⁠⁠The Undoing of Joss Whedon⁠

I've recently been reading “Hurdleᐤisms - Wit and Wisdom from a Lifetime in Baseball” by Clint Hurdle.  Find more connections to Clint HERE.   Find the book HERE. This gem comes from Hurdle-ism 16 -(pg. 68)  “I'm Just Trying to Be a Simple Person in a Complex World!”  We are in a complex world for sure. In fact, during my 60 years on this planet - I can speak for myself that this is the most complex time during my lifetime. I like how he connects so many different connections in this passage to trying to “take care of the tasks in front of me one by one.”  I need to do a much better job on simplifying the way I approach life in general, but for sure - my life! This helps all of us (me for sure) to ride the waves of the ups and downs of life, which I have been trying to do for a long time.

Op dinsdag 10 februari 2026 sprak kinderboekenschrijver Edward van de Vendel de jaarlijkse Frans Kellendonklezing uit aan de Radboud Universiteit in Nijmegen, getiteld 'De functie van onschuld'. In een wereld vol hardheid lijkt alles wat rustig, vriendelijk en zorgeloos is op z'n minst naïef en op z'n meest overbodig. Is literatuur, en specifiek kinderliteratuur, nog van enige maatschappelijke waarde? Kun je zo hard zwiepen met een gedicht dat het een zwaard wordt? Deze podcast is een integrale registratie van de Kellendonklezing, die is genoemd naar de schrijver Frans Kellendonk, bekend van onder meer de volwassenenroman 'Mystiek lichaam'. Hij overleed op 15 februari 1990 op 39-jarige leeftijd aan de gevolgen van aids. Sinds 1993 herdenkt de Faculteit der Letteren van de Radboud Universiteit, waar Kellendonk studeerde en promoveerde als anglist, de schrijver jaarlijks rond zijn sterfdag met deze lezing. Vorige sprekers waren onder anderen de Nederlandse en Vlaamse auteurs Rebekka de Wit (2025), Saskia de Coster (2024), Nina Polak (2023) en Stephan Sanders (2022). Boekje met de lezing Uitgeverij Vantilt heeft een boekje gemaakt van de lezing. 'De functie van onschuld' is verkrijgbaar of bestelbaar bij de boekhandel.

 Jak w każdy czwartek, gościem poranka Radia Wnet był Piotr Witt, który w szerokiej, historycznej perspektywie opisał genezę i ewolucję Unii Europejskiej. Jego teza była jednoznaczna: spośród wszystkich porządków politycznych tworzonych w Europie od średniowiecza, to właśnie Unia okazała się najtrwalsza.Ze wszystkich porządków świata wymyślonych w Europie od średniowiecza najtrwalszym okazała się Unia Europejska, proklamowana 76 lat temu– mówił Wit, porównując ją z wcześniejszymi projektami geopolitycznymi, takimi jak traktaty kolonialne, Święte Przymierze czy porządek wersalski.Zdaniem korespondenta Radia Wnet, trwałość Unii wynikała z długofalowego, stopniowego procesu, prowadzonego poza społeczną kontrolą.Od pierwszej chwili majsterkowicze Unii posuwali się w masę. Zgodnie z instrukcjami nieznanych zwierzchników budowlę przygotowywano w tajemnicy– zaznaczył, powołując się na odtajnione dokumenty CIA, z których ma wynikać, że proces integracji był planowany jako projekt wielopokoleniowy.W tym kontekście przywołał postacie ojców założycieli wskazując na symbolikę i ideologiczne inspiracje projektu europejskiego.Zaprojektowali standardowe państwo Stanów Zjednoczonych Europy – mówił, odnosząc się do wizji federalnej Europy.Piotr Wit zwrócił uwagę, że dopiero Konstytucja Europejska z 2004 roku uświadomiła wielu narodom, iż Unia nie odwołuje się do korzeni chrześcijańskich.Było trochę narzekania i kręcenia nosem, ale tekst nie został zmieniony – zauważył, dodając, że kolejne procesy – w tym polityka migracyjna – były już tylko konsekwencją wcześniej przyjętych założeń.W dalszej części rozmowy Piotr Wit porównał stosunek Polaków i Francuzów do Unii Europejskiej.Polacy przyjęli Unię Europejską z entuzjazmem. Francuzi – na ogół sceptycznie – podkreślał. Przypomniał, że Francuzi głosowali przeciwko traktatowi z Maastricht, ale mimo to został on wdrożony.Korespondent Radia Wnet odniósł się również do genezy wspólnej waluty.Euro nie jest wymyślone przez Niemców. Wspólna waluta była od początku do końca projektem francuskim – podkreślił.W końcowej części rozmowy Piotr Wit sformułował zdecydowaną diagnozę polityczną.Przekazaliśmy władzę zarządowi Unii – mówił, krytykując brak demokratycznej kontroli nad decyzjami podejmowanymi na szczeblu europejskim.Rozmowę zakończył konstatacją, że Europa przeszła długą drogę – od kultu maryjnego do zdejmowania krzyży ze ścian – i nie widać końca tego procesu./fa

Dit keer bespreken we de band tussen radicaal-en extreem-rechts Europa en Trump. Die is al jaren hecht. Maar sinds Trumps aanval op Venezuela, zijn dreigementen rondom Groenland en het invoeren van nieuwe importtarieven, groeit de kritiek. De Duitse AfD sprak zelfs van “wildwesttaferelen”. Is de jarenlange liefde voor Trump bekoeld? Hoe worstelen Le Pen, Meloni en Weidel met hun ideologische bondgenoot die - ook onder hun eigen aanhang - steeds meer wordt verguisd? Annette van Soest bespreekt het met Stefan de Vries, Europa-verslaggever voor onder meer BNR en Pauw & de Wit en stamgast van het café. Tips en verwijzingen uit deze aflevering: - Annette tipt de roman ‘Het Vlees' van David Szalay https://www.uitgeverijathenaeu... - Stefan raadt ‘De wereld van Clovis' van Jeroen Wijnendaele aan https://ertsberg.be/boek/de-we...

Het talent dat Jamai Loman elke week laat zien in Maestro laat het panel van de AD Media Podcast niet onberoerd. Als Angela de Jong vertelt over het programma en hoe mooi ze het vindt wat de Idols-winnaar doet, krijgt ze waterige ogen. „Ik had nooit gedacht dat ik emotioneel zou worden bij dit programma.” Er waren afgelopen week twee opvallende tv-interviews. Humberto Tan was op bezoek bij Mark Rutte en zijn ‘geheime’ adviseur Tjardus van Citters en Eva Jinek ging juist op bezoek in de studio van Ilse DeLange. Tan werd gered door het nieuws, want Van Citters had niet veel te melden. Bij Jinek wordt de vraag op geworpen of ze dit soort egodocumenten wel moet maken. Ook komt het gesprek van Tim de Wit met Hila Noorzai voorbij over de ophef rond haar documentaire. Verslaggever Dennis Jansen was aanwezig bij het mediadebat in de Tweede Kamer, maar kwam tot de conclusie dat het maar een half uur interessant was. De meningen over de nieuwe NPO-serie Schwalbe van de mannen van Rundfunk zijn verdeeld. In het radiohoekje zijn er complimenten voor nieuwe NPO Radio 2-dj’s Tim op ‘t Broek en Daniël Lippens, die beter bij het station passen dan op voorhand verwacht. Angela zet een belangrijk programma in haar etalage: Fase 8: Femicide. Een zwaar onderwerp, maar zeker het bekijken waard. Luisteren dus! Naar de wekelijkse AD Media Podcast, waarin columnist Angela de Jong en verslaggevers Dennis Jansen en Mark den Blanken alle hoofd-, rand-, en bijzaken bespreken op het gebied van media. De presentatie is in handen van Manuel Venderbos. Luister je liever via Spotify of Apple, of een andere podcastapp? Dat kan!

Irene Sofia Lucio stops by to discuss the journey from being a shy kid in Puerto Rico who had to force herself to raise her hand to starring in some of the most provocative plays on Broadway. She opens up about the intersection of motherhood and art, explaining how becoming a parent shifted her relationship with her body and why creative teams led by mothers are simply more efficient. We also dig into the "white passing" label she carried for years and how she finally decided to fully reclaim her Latinx identity and name in an industry that loves to categorize. We get into the specifics of her current role in Liberation, including the decision to wear a custom golden armor bust of her own body for opening night and the unique power of performing a nude scene while her father is in the audience. Irene shares how the play explores the history of women's liberation and why physical vulnerability on stage creates a "force field" of safety with her castmates. It is a candid look at how the political climate impacts performance and why gathering in a theater is a form of community building we desperately need right now. Irene Sofia Lucio is an actor and creator whose Broadway credits include Liberation, Slave Play, and Wit. Her Off-Broadway work includes Our Dear Dead Drug Lord. On screen, she has appeared in In the Heights, Tell Me Lies, The Big Cigar, and co-created the web series Butts. She holds a BA from Princeton University and an MFA from the Yale School of Drama.

After nearly four decades of negotiations, sanctions, summits, threats, and backdoor channels, the United States has failed to stop North Korea's nuclear program which now has the capability to strike American cities with weapons of mass destruction. In Fallout: The Inside Story of America's Failure to Disarm North Korea (Yale UP, 2025), Joel S. Wit explains why US efforts to contain North Korea have not worked and gives readers a front-row seat to the policy debates, diplomatic deals, and secret talks between Washington and Pyongyang. Wit, a former State Department official, takes readers to the front lines of nuclear negotiations and recounts how perilously close the United States and North Korea have come, on various occasions, to nuclear confrontation. Based on more than three hundred interviews with officials in Washington, Beijing, and Seoul, as well as with the author's contacts in Pyongyang, this book chronicles how six American presidents have approached the problem of North Korea.Wit points to Barack Obama and Donald Trump as the two presidents most responsible for the failure to halt North Korea's march to build a nuclear arsenal, since it was under their successive tenures that Pyongyang acquired the ability to threaten every city in North America. Wit also offers an unparalleled portrait of Kim Jong Un that refutes his caricature as impulsive and illogical. Like his father and his grandfather, Kim is a ruthless despot but also a canny and informed negotiator determined to secure his dictatorship's future by exploring diplomacy or, failing that, by building a nuclear arsenal. Dr. Andrew O. Pace is a historian of the US in the world who specializes in the moral fog of war. He is currently a DPAA Research Partner Fellow at the University of Southern Mississippi and a co-host of the Diplomatic History Channel on the New Books Network. He is also working on his first book which examines the high price that the Roosevelt and Truman administrations were willing to pay in order to achieve total victory in World War II. He can be reached at andrew.pace@usm.edu or via his website. Andrew is not an employee of DPAA, he supports DPAA through a partnership.

Min 4: AVATAR 3: FUEGO Y CENIZA (3 estrellas) Avatar 3, dirigida por James Cameron y protagonizada de nuevo por Sam Worthington, Zoe Saldaña, Sigourney Weaver, Stephen Lang y Kate Winslet, se presenta como el estreno que llevábamos tiempo esperando para sentarnos a analizarlo en Estamos de Cine: un nuevo descenso a Pandora que promete ir más allá del deslumbramiento visual para adentrarse en zonas más incómodas y maduras del universo Avatar. Cameron amplía el mapa emocional y moral de la saga introduciendo nuevas culturas na'vi y un conflicto menos maniqueo, donde la épica convive con la culpa, la pérdida y la idea de que no toda resistencia es pura ni toda tecnología es el enemigo. Sin renunciar a su músculo técnico —pensado una vez más para la experiencia en sala—, Avatar 3 apunta a ser el capítulo que tensiona de verdad el relato, cuestiona a sus propios héroes y obliga al espectador a mirar Pandora no como un paraíso idealizado, sino como un mundo vivo, contradictorio y frágil, en el que cada elección deja cicatrices. Min 18: KEEPER (3 estrellas) Keeper, dirigida por Osgood Perkins y protagonizada por Tatiana Maslany (She-Hulk, Abogada Hulka; Orphan Black) y Rossif Sutherland, llega como uno de los títulos de terror más comentados de 2025, y el resultado es un film tan inquietante como polarizador: una experiencia que funciona mejor como estudio de atmósfera y miedo sutil que como narrativa sólida y cohesionada para Estamos de Cine. Min 23: VIDA PRIVADA (3 estrellas) Vida privada (Vie privée), dirigida por Rebecca Zlotowski y protagonizada por Jodie Foster en uno de los papeles más singulares de su carrera (interpretando a la prestigiosa psiquiatra Lilian Steiner), llega a las salas como una de las propuestas francófonas más originales de la temporada navideña. Thriller de investigación con aroma clásico que se enreda deliberadamente con elementos de comedia negra, drama psicológico y reflexión sobre la identidad profesional y personal. Min 26: EL EXTRANERO (3,5 estrellas) El extranjero, la nueva película dirigida por François Ozon y estrenada este viernes, es una adaptación audaz y cinematográfica del clásico existencialista de Albert Camus (L'Étranger), que analizamos en Estamos de Cine como una pieza que inquieta tanto por su fidelidad lírica al texto original como por su reinterpretación de sus temas más controvertidos para el presente. Ozon —conocido por su habilidad para explorar capas psicológicas y sociales en relatos aparentemente sencillos” rehúye una mera traducción literal y, en vez de ello, propone una lectura que enfatiza el carácter sensorial y la experiencia subjetiva del protagonista, Meursault (interpretado por Benjamin Voisin), un hombre cuya indiferencia ante la vida y la muerte se convierte en espejo de un mundo que no sólo no comprende sus emociones, sino que lo condena por su incapacidad para expresar las que se esperan de él. Min 33: LA PELÍCULA DE TU VIDA: CON ALBERTO VÁZQUEZ (DECORADO) Con un flamante Premio Forqué bajo el brazo y con claras opciones de cara al Goya, el director de la película animada "Decorado", Alberto Vázquez nos confiesa por qué el aclamado cortometraje de animación "Padre e hija" ( 2000. Michael Dudok de Wit) es el título que marcó su amor por el cine y su apuesta por la animación para emocionar. Min 36: AGUSTÍN ALMODÓVAR NOS AVANZA LAS FECHAS CLAVE DE "AMARGA NAVIDAD" La conexión entre la productora El Deseo y Estamos de Cine sigue funcionando y, en el último momento, al límite de la hora, nuestra pisano Agustín Almodóvar nos sorprende con un audio en el que nos confirma y concreta algunas de las fechas clave que la productora maneja para el estreno del último y esperado trabajo de Pedro: "Amarga Navidad". Min 38: ESPECIAL BSO "ZOOTRÓPOLIS 2" (3,75 estrellas) La banda sonora de Zootrópolis 2, compuesta por Michael Giacchino (Up, Inside Out, The Batman), es uno de los grandes valores narrativos de la secuela y confirma al compositor como una pieza esencial del ADN emocional de la saga. Giacchino retoma los motivos jazzísticos y urbanos que definían la identidad sonora de la primera película y los expande con mayor sofisticación rítmica y orquestal, acompañando el nuevo tono del relato, más adulto y menos ingenuo, sin perder el espíritu lúdico que caracteriza a Judy Hopps y Nick Wilde.

In een nieuwe aflevering van Europa Draait Door blikken Tim de Wit en Arend Jan Boekestijn samen met EU-correspondent Saskia Dekkers terug op een ongekend Europees jaar. Een jaar waarin de Amerikaanse vicepresident verklaarde dat niet Rusland, maar Europa zelf het grootste gevaar vormt. En waarin Trump-gezinde denktanks openlijk plannen presenteerden om de Europese Unie te ontmantelen. Maar het was óók een jaar waarin burgers zelf raketten inzamelden voor Oekraïne, en waarin de EU hard werkt aan meer strategische zelfstandigheid. Alleen: gebeurt dat snel genoeg, als Trump daadwerkelijk van plan is Europa uit elkaar te spelen? Dat, en véél meer, in een nieuwe aflevering van Europa Draait Door.

‘Adem in door je neus, adem uit door je vagina.’ Dat is het motto van Roos Moggré. Sander en Jaap zijn er nog niet helemaal over uit of dit voor hen een ademhalingstechniek is of een spirituele burn-out in wording. Roos bundelde haar columns, een collectie die ongeveer zo consistent is als het leven en deze aflevering: van kraamzorg tot oppassers en dingen waar je überhaupt geen mening over zou moeten hebben, maar toch krijgt. Met Baarzilla wist ze de kraamzorg in ziekenhuizen in beweging te krijgen, een zeldzaamheid in beleidsland. Binnenkort is ze het nieuwe gezicht van ‘Pauw en de Wit’; het zal haar ongetwijfeld beter afgaan dan Sander. Maar vandaag zit ze bij tante Sander en Ome Jaap.

Aston Villa U19 2-2 AZ Alkmaar U19UEFA Youth League Third Round, First LegVenue: Bodymoor HeathDate: Wednesday afternoon Aston Villa U19s and AZ Alkmaar U19s played out a thrilling 2-2 draw in the first leg of their UEFA Youth League third-round clash, leaving the tie finely poised ahead of the second leg in Alkmaar on Tuesday, December 9. Jimmy Shan's Young Lions twice took the lead through Rory Wilson and Bradley Burrowes, but AZ responded each time with goals from Tycho de Wit and Hessel de Wit, snatching a late equalizer in the 87th minute.Shan made four changes to the side that defeated KF Skënderbeu in the previous round, bringing in Burrowes and Calum Moreland at full-back, along with Kadan Young and Ben Broggio in attack alongside Jamaldeen Jimoh-Aloba and Wilson.The match began cautiously, with AZ enjoying more possession and creating early chances. Bendegúz Kovács, who scored four goals in the last round against Lincoln Red Imps, fired over from distance, while Bohdan Budko tested Villa goalkeeper Owen Asemota with a stinging drive.Villa broke the deadlock in the 20th minute. Captain Aidan Borland kept an attack alive, finding Jimoh-Aloba whose shot was saved by Nick Homan, allowing Wilson to turn home the rebound—his fifth goal of the competition.AZ leveled seven minutes later when Kovács capitalized on a loose backpass, rounding Asemota and squaring for Tycho de Wit to steer into an empty net, ensuring the sides went into half-time tied.Villa started the second half strongly and regained the lead in the 56th minute. Wilson turned his defender on Young's pass and poked a shot that Homan parried, with Burrowes burying the rebound.The hosts pushed for a third, with Jimoh-Aloba and Borland testing Homan, but AZ rallied. Budko forced another save from Asemota before Hessel de Wit struck a superb first-time effort into the top corner from the edge of the box after Villa surrendered possession deep in their half.Despite Villa's late push in four minutes of added time, no winner emerged, setting up a decisive return leg in the Netherlands as the Villans aim to reach the knockout stages for the second consecutive season.Post-match, Shan expressed mixed emotions, saying: “We're obviously disappointed with the result. I thought the performance warranted a win.” He lamented gifting two goals, taking responsibility for the second due to game management, while praising AZ's individuals and patterns. Shan highlighted Villa's tactical adaptability, outstanding possession play, and chance creation, but noted a lack of ruthlessness in the final third.Looking ahead, with a Birmingham Senior Cup opener against Coventry Sphinx in between, Shan added: “Plenty more work... it gives you an opportunity to reflect and tidy things up and look at where we can do things better – both in and out of possession. It gives us an opportunity with a game in between to continue that momentum, that rhythm.” Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

In the conclusion to their Mike Nichols miniseries, Phil and Emily welcome Joe Reid (Vulture, This Had Oscar Buzz) to unpack Angels in America: Part Two Perestroika.The trio dives deep into how Nichols translated Tony Kushner's monumental stage play into one of HBO's most ambitious miniseries exploring its themes of prophecy, identity, queer resilience, and the intersection of politics and spirituality in 1980s America. They discuss the legacy of Angels as both a masterpiece of television and a cultural turning point for the medium itself, its sweeping performances from Meryl Streep, Al Pacino, and Mary-Louise Parker, and how Nichols closed out his career redefining prestige TV.This episode caps a thoughtful look back at Nichols' 2000s work, from Wit to Angels in America, examining how he brought cinematic intimacy to television storytelling.

Twitch streamer and fellow Hyrule Gaming Group member Byuka returns to the podcast as we talk about the world wide release of the Umamusume: Pretty Derby game. After nearly a year and a half, Byuka comes back to the podcast as we talk about an app/game that has taken over our lives. Japanese horse girl racing game, Umamusume: Pretty Derby, released world wide earlier this year. A game that has been in Asia for several years, Umamusume providers the player a chance to train and race their favorite horse girl over the course of a 3 year period. What will you train? Speed? Wit? Will you give them recreation time? How often will you let them rest? And what skills will your horsegirl obtain in the course of their career? It's highly deep in strategy, frustrating with the RNG at times, and has deep lore for each character - and each character being based on a real horse that exists (or existed). We go over a lot of what we love about the game, the lore and history, how we play, plus tips and tricks! Go check out Umamusume: Pretty Derby, and send me your trainer code so we can be friends!

The POWER Of Charisma, Charm and Wit

Phil and Emily continue their deep-dive into Mike Nichols' work from the 2000s with Wit , the acclaimed HBO adaptation of Margaret Edson's Pulitzer Prize–winning play. Joined by writer and producer Eliza Clark (Y: The Last Man, Animal Kingdom), they explore how Nichols recalibrated his directorial voice after What Planet Are You From? with this intimate, emotionally devastating story of a scholar facing terminal illness.The conversation digs into the film's powerful performances led by Emma Thompson and the delicate balance Nichols strikes between theatricality and cinematic storytelling. Together, they unpack Wit's themes of mortality, intellect, vulnerability, and humanity, while tracing how this project set the stage for his monumental follow-up, Angels in America.If you want access to full video episodes, exclusive bonus content, and more conversations like this one, head over to our Patreon and join the community today.
