John Hardie. President Zelensky's dismissal of Defense Minister Mykhailo Fedorov has sparked wartime protests and unease among Western partners. Fedorov was a key driver of drone innovation and anti-corruption reforms in procurement. His firing is attributed to clashes with Commander-in-Chief Oleksandr Syrskyi, whom protesters characterize as an unpopular "Soviet-style butcher." There are indications Zelensky may reverse course by reinstating Fedorov and potentially firing Syrskyi. (13)1993

John Gillen is an ex-BlackRock VP, General Partner at TRU Capital, and host of The Milk Road Show.In this episode, John breaks down his Wartime Ethereum thesis on why this is a defining moment for Ethereum that demands engagement, conviction, and patience rather than capitulation. He walks through how ETH functions as a triple point asset, why stablecoins, tokenization, and the agentic economy are all in their first innings with Ethereum best positioned to capture each tailwind, and why decentralized AI makes the case for Ethereum's censorship resistance more urgent than ever.------

Send us Fan MailHappy 250th Anniversary to the United States of America!As America celebrates 250 years of independence, we invite you to look back with us at one of our favorite Independence Day episodes in this special Re-Deployment Episode of The What's The Scuttlebutt Podcast.Originally released as Episode 212: "Fourth of July Reflections, Wartime Realities, and Battles Around July 3rd," this conversation remains just as meaningful today. Don is joined by Jeff and newly announced producer Zach for a thoughtful discussion that explores the meaning of Independence Day, not only as a celebration of our nation's founding but also as a time to remember the sacrifices made to preserve the freedoms we enjoy.Jeff shares the powerful emotions he experienced returning home from war, describing the surreal contrast between life in a combat zone and arriving back to a country where daily routines continued as though nothing had changed. That personal reflection leads to an important conversation about the experiences of World War II veterans returning home in the 1940s, and how they may have wrestled with many of the same emotions after witnessing some of history's most devastating battles.Through that historical lens, the team examines three significant World War II battles that took place around the July 3rd timeframe, discussing their strategic importance, the courage of the men who fought them, and the lasting impact they had on the Allied war effort. The discussion serves as a reminder that the freedoms celebrated every Fourth of July were secured through the sacrifice of generations willing to answer their nation's call.The episode also features another installment of Whatcha Readin', where Jeff shares exciting news that he has begun writing his own memoir, giving listeners an early glimpse into the personal stories, experiences, and lessons he hopes to preserve for future generations.As we commemorate America's Semiquincentennial, we hope this episode serves as a reminder that history is more than dates and battles—it is the story of ordinary people who accomplished extraordinary things. Their sacrifices built the nation we celebrate today, and preserving those stories ensures they will never be forgotten.Join us for this special Re-Deployment Episode filled with history, reflection, remembrance, and appreciation for the men and women who defended freedom. Happy 250th Birthday, America!Support the show

Historian and Author Katrina Kittel joined Philip Clark and listeners to Nightlife to a very personal history built around her father's experiences in World War II as a POW in Italy. 

A number of very special quilts have been arriving in North America over the past few weeks. A collection of more than 40 are being returned to Canada, 85 years after they were made in communities all over the country.   Most of them are tattered and deeply worn but they have an extraordinary story to tell. They are the last evidence we have of an astonishing operation that saw Canadian women and children make over 400,000 quilts during the Second World War. These were sent, largely, to Britain to comfort children orphaned in the conflict, families bombed out of their houses, soldiers convalescing, land girls in hostels far from home and a myriad of other uses.   In Britain, the Canadian wartime quilts were often loved and cherished. But gradually, as the years passed they faded from memory. A few hundred have survived and many museums in the UK hold them. In Canada they were completely forgotten.  Now it is hoped that with the return of this major collection a new generation will come to understand the work of their grandmothers and great grandmothers. The aim is that there will be a permanent exhibit of the entire collection to stand as a memorial, not just to the women of Canada, but to all those around the world who use their textile skills in times of conflict to bring comfort, compassion and care.   If you would liket o see pictures of the quilts of read a transcript of this podcast then please follow the link to https://hapticandhue.com/tales-of-textiles-series-8/

I've covered three British herbalists so far on this podcast, and each has made a notable contribution to the development of botany and apothecary practice in Britain. This week, we're going to meet Maud Grieve, whose contribution took a different form. Yes, she wrote a lot about plants. She wrote A Modern Herbal, in fact. Yet she also contributed to the wartime efforts of the First World War in the realm of medicinal plants. She's perhaps not as well-known as the other three herbal writers I've featured: Elizabeth Blackwell, William Turner, and Nicholas Culpeper. She didn't illustrate her herbal, like Blackwell. Nor did she translate Latin texts into English, like Turner or Culpeper. But she did get people growing–and using–their own herbs. Let's go to meet her in this week's episode of Fabulous Folklore!

How can a 7th-century tragedy like Karbala still shape the way millions understand war, injustice and resistance today?In this episode of Thinking Islam, we explore the enduring power of Ashura and the story of Karbala across Iran, Iraq, and Lebanon. The conversation begins with the idea of Karbala as ever-present, a story lived rather than merely remembered, woven into names, daily speech, and a shared moral language of standing with the oppressed. We consider how rituals are politicised from the bottom up rather than simply imposed from above, the meeting of nationalism, martyrdom, and religion, and how the latmiya has shifted from a language of mourning into one of mobilisation and resistance in a time of war.We also look at the impact of social media on how a new generation engages with pilgrimage and ritual, and ask whether Karbala is becoming the lens through which all political struggle is understood. Throughout, the discussion returns to a central insight: no one owns the narrative of Karbala, and its meaning is constantly negotiated between states, communities, and individuals.Zahra Ladha is a Middle East analyst and writer. Fluent in Arabic and Persian and holding an MSc in Modern Middle Eastern Studies from the University of Oxford, her research focuses on Iran, Iraq, transnational Shiism, and Muslim diasporas. Her reporting examines the intersection of ritual, politics, and collective memory across the region.Audio Chapters: 0:00 – Highlights 3:07 – Ever-Present Karbala 7:35 – The Politicisation of Rituals 13:50 – Muharram in Iran vs Iraq 16:14 – Latmiya, Resistance & the Ashura Narrative 25:29 – Karbala & Social Media 29:35 – Karbala & Geopolitics 37:56 – Memory, Politics & Ritual 42:34 – Thinking Islam Question

Volodymyr Sheiko is the Director General of the Ukrainian Institute, Ukraine's national cultural-diplomacy institution operating under the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. He became the Institute's first Director General and was re-elected in 2021. Before leading the Institute, he worked for the British Council in Ukraine, where he was involved in arts management, cultural programming, communications, and international cultural cooperation.His work sits at the intersection of Ukrainian cultural diplomacy, literature, translation, decolonisation, memory politics, and resistance to Russian imperial narratives. Since Russia's full-scale invasion, Sheiko has become one of the clearest voices arguing that culture is not peripheral to Ukraine's survival. For him, literature, language, translation, archives, museums, festivals, and cultural institutions are part of the same struggle as the military front: the defence of Ukraine's right to exist as a sovereign civilisation.----------The Ukrainian Institute has a mission to strengthen Ukraine internationally and domestically as a subject using the tools of cultural diplomacy. It promotes better knowledge and understanding of Ukraine internationally, and develops cultural relations between Ukraine and other countries. https://ui.org.ua/en/LINKS:https://pen.org.ua/en/members/volodymyr-sheikohttps://ui.org.ua/en/news-en/volodymyr-sheiko-was-re-elected-general-director-of-the-ukrainian-institute/https://www.britishcouncil.org.ua/en/lp-human-stories-en/volodymyr-sheiko-journeyhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/volodymyr-sheiko-38870a4/https://x.com/UA_Institute----------SUPPORT THE CHANNEL:https://www.buymeacoffee.com/siliconcurtainhttps://www.patreon.com/siliconcurtainhttps://www.gofundme.com/f/scaling-up-campaign-to-fight-authoritarian-disinformation----------TRUSTED CHARITIES ON THE GROUND:Car4Ukrainehttps://car4ukraine.com/en-US/campaignsDzyga's Pawhttps://dzygaspaw.com/projectsSuperhumans - Hospital for war traumashttps://superhumans.com/en/UNBROKEN - Treatment.

What does the Russian wartime economy look like beneath the official data – and what are the implications for regime stability? In early June, President Putin took to the stage at the St Petersburg International Economic Forum – Russia's flagship annual showcase for investors and international media – and delivered a characteristically assured account of an economy not just surviving but adapting. Sanctions, he suggested, had been absorbed. Western predictions of collapse had amounted to little more than wishful thinking. But if we look more closely at the current state of the Russian economy beyond the Kremlin narratives, the picture is more distorted. This is a classic war economy where growth is almost entirely a function of state defence orders, public spending has reached historically elevated levels, and the civilian economy is being systematically drained of labour, capital and technology to feed the military-industrial complex. In this episode, Natia Seskuria, Senior Research Fellow, Russian and Eurasian Security, is joined by RUSI Associate Fellow Charles Hecker, to discuss Russia's wartime economy and explore the following questions: What does the Russian wartime economy actually look like? As economic strain intensifies and the logic of state predation deepens, what are the implications for regime stability? If the conflict extends to another three to five years, how will Western corporate engagement with Russia evolve – and what risks does that trajectory create for sanctions coherence and Euro-Atlantic security? Some of the data and sector information in this podcast were sourced from The Bell, written by Alexandra Prokopenko and Alexander Kolyandr. More information on the Russian economy is available at their website: www.thebell.io.

H.W. Brands explains how, in May 1941, Roosevelt declared an "unlimited national emergency," putting American industry and the public mind on a wartime footing. This move escalated the "moral war" against Germany and effectively criminalized dissent, as Roosevelt began labeling his critics "copperheads" and "fifth columnists"—terms implying disloyalty or treason. Lindbergh felt this was a dangerous overreach, noting that his father had been hounded by the Justice Department for similar dissent during World War I. The administration intensified its pressure, with the FBItapping America First Committee phones and British agents attempting to sabotage their gatherings. Roosevelt even misrepresented the Greer incident, claiming a German submarine had fired unprovoked on an American ship, when in fact the Greer was actively hunting the submarine. On September 11, 1941, during a rally in Des Moines, Iowa, a desperate Lindbergh made a fatal rhetorical error. He identified three groups pushing for war: the British, the Rooseveltadministration, and Jewish Americans. Although he stated their sympathies were understandable, his mention of "American Jews" allowed his enemies to brand him an anti-Semite and a "Nazi stooge." Even supporters like Herbert Hoover told him that while his words might be true, he was "wrong to say it" because he had moved himself politically out of bounds. (7)1940

But, he almost didn't survive to do either. 

Episode Summary: When the United States was drawn into WWII, it was wholly unprepared for conflict. By June 6, 1944, America was unleashing its burgeoning military might. This largely tied back to a miracle of production in nearly every facet of the wartime economy. Many often think of this industrial boom as an inevitable wartime response. However, the reality was far more complex and precarious. It took tremendous effort. Eight decades later, America once again faces severe security threats. Wartime demand in places like Ukraine and the Middle East are confirming what most security experts have long known: America is unprepared to confront current security challenges. We need a lot more war materiel. Turning this corner will demand an encompassing approach from both the government and industry. Join Doug Birkey and Heather Penney of the Mitchell Institute team as we chat with aerospace industrial base expert Richard Aboulafia to explore lessons learned from WWII and apply them to today's challenges.

Trump says the war is over, but also calls himself a wartime president. So which is it, and why is Congress still just standing there? Nate and Chuck break down Trump's Iran comments, the Bibi phone call, the "not a war" problem, inflation excuses, and the constitutional mess around bombing without authorization. Then they dig into Thomas Massie, AIPAC, Iowa's primary results, and whether pro-Israel money took out one of the few Republicans who actually votes like the Constitution matters. The bigger question: is AIPAC the root problem, or is the real issue that Congress and the federal government have so much power that everyone wants to buy it?

In the autumn of 1939, the isolated fishing town of Provincetown, Massachusetts, became gripped by terror. Children and adults alike reported encounters with a towering figure cloaked in black, wearing a metallic mask with glowing blue eyes and laughing with a deep, gurgling sound before vanishing into the dunes with impossible speed. They called it the Black Flash. But the deeper investigators looked, the stranger the story became.

FDR declares an "unlimited national emergency" in May 1941, placing the country on a wartime footing and targeting dissenters. He begins labeling Lindbergh and America First supporters as "copperheads" and "fifth columnists," effectively questioning their loyalty. Lindbergh's reputation suffers a fatal blow after a speech in Des Moines, where he identifies the British, the Jews, and the administration as those pushing for war. Branded an anti-Semite and Nazi sympathizer, he becomes politically radioactive. This controversy leads to the decline and eventual disbandment of the America First Committee as war becomes imminent. (7/8)1936

In this episode, Craig and Adam speak with Stuart Kendall about Bataille's confrontation with catastrophe, the “privileged instant,” and the strange oscillation between order and excess in his writing.

A meeting in 1971 reunited Pamela with her wartime lover, Averell Harriman, leading to their marriage and her access to a vast fortune. She transformed Harriman's Georgetown home into a "temple" to his career, making him feel like a king while she mastered the political game he often found difficult. Pamela became an American citizen to fully immerse herself in the Democratic Party, turning their home into a vital hub for fundraising and policy development. She pioneered a new role for women in Washington, moving beyond the traditional hostess to become a strategic political actor and mentor. Despite her political ascent, her relationship with her son remained fractured as he chose to emphasize his Churchill heritage over his connection to her. During the conservative Reagan era, she worked tirelessly to revitalize the Democratic Party, providing it with hope, funding, and a future through her sophisticated networking. (6/8)1650

The GOP and anti FDR Democratic winners of this midterm would ensure there would be scrutiny of the war effort and that New Deal programs domestically would be ended. They would lay the seeds for Truman's difficult Presidency and the eventual GOP recapture of Congress and the White House. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Today's poem is Spring in War-Time by Sara Teasdale. The Slowdown is your daily poetry ritual. In this episode, Maggie writes… “I'm sure you've also seen the news stories, or at least social media takes, theorizing on the potential for a military draft. I have a son, and surely many of you listening have sons, too. “Operation Epic Fury” is what I feel, as a mother, when I think about men like Trump and Hegseth possibly, someday, sending my son and yours needlessly into harm's way. Meanwhile, it's spring. The earth feels set on creating more life. It's sunny in central Ohio, and the Bradford Pears and the Redbud trees and the Magnolias are blooming. My yard is overrun with violets and dandelions. Later today my son — my only son — will mow it.” This show is supported by gifts from listeners.
