Ben and Tommy discuss President Trump's threat to invade Nigeria to stop a (nonexistent) genocide against Christians and the international community's total failure to stop an actual genocide happening in Sudan. Also covered: why Trump's pitch to restart testing of nuclear weapons might be his worst (and scariest) foreign policy idea to date, why FBI Director Kash Patel's trip to visit his girlfriend is getting slammed by right-wing commentators, the uproar in Israel over a torture investigation, election wins for left-wing candidates in Ireland and the Netherlands, Trump's overtly racist refugee policy, and the final nail in the royal coffin for Prince Andrew. Then Ben speaks with Sanna Marin, the former Prime Minister of Finland, about the double standards women in leadership face, and her new book Hope in Action: A Memoir About the Courage to Lead.For a closed-captioned version of this episode, click here.

Michael Wolff joins Joanna Coles to dissect the latest unraveling in Trumpworld: the controversial CBS News settlement, followed by their soft-ball sit‑down with Donald Trump. They question: Is this real journalism or a pay‑for‑play fluff piece? Later, they turn to JD Vance's weekend spectacle—the public message to his Hindu wife, the viral hug with Erica Kirk, and what it reveals about Vance's naked ambition to court MAGA while lacking the requisite authenticity to appeal truly. Along the way, they chart how the conservative media ecosystem is shifting, how Trump's polling collapse and foreign‑policy chaos are fueling the vacuum around Trump, and how ambition, extreme rhetoric, and charged cynicism have become the new tools of power in Washington.

How then will his kingdom stand? 27 And if I cast out demons by Beelzebul, by whom do your sons cast them out? Therefore they will be your judges. 28 But if it is by the Spirit of God that I cast out demons, then the kingdom of God has come upon you. 29 Or how can someone enter a strong man's house and plunder his goods, unless he first binds the strong man? Then indeed he may plunder his house. 30 Whoever is not with me is against me, and whoever does not gather with me scatters. 31 Therefore I tell you, every sin and blasphemy will be forgiven people, but the blasphemy against the Spirit will not be forgiven. 32 And whoever speaks a word against the Son of Man will be forgiven, but whoever speaks against the Holy Spirit will not be forgiven, either in this age or in the age to come.

What if the biggest changes in your life aren't sudden at all—but have been building quietly for years? Watch the full conversation on YouTube In this episode, Russell Moore sits down with pastor and author Mark Batterson (National Community Church, Washington, D.C.; The Circle Maker, Gradually, Then Suddenly) to talk about how transformation, calling, and even faith itself often arrive–as Hemingway once put it–gradually, then suddenly. From hard decisions and hidden preparation to the slow work of God that looks instant only in hindsight, they explore why patience may be the most underrated spiritual discipline of all. Batterson and RDM talk about the writings of Eugene Peterson on the “long obedience” of a faith journey, the difference between patience and stagnation, how to know when you're called to something and when you're released from it, and why celebrity culture in the church short-circuits character formation. They get practical on habits (why 30 days feels like the hardest part), preaching long obedience in a city addicted to immediacy, learning grit without “snowplow” spirituality, and aiming at legacy that's measured by who others become because of you.  If you're looking for wisdom without hurry, conviction without hype, and hope that can take a punch and keep walking, this is the episode for you.

Dick Cheney has been called the most powerful vice-president in US history, as well as the chief architect of America's so-called ‘war on terror', and a war criminal. We hear from a former colleague, and from an Iraqi poet. Also in the programme: evidence that the earliest humans passed technology tips down the generations for more than 300,000 years; and as Paris offers the chance to buy prime spots in its most historic cemeteries, we ask what makes them so beguiling?(IMAGE: U.S. Vice President Dick Cheney (L) listens as President George W.

This week on Sinica, I chat with Lizzi Lee, a fellow on the Chinese economy at the Asia Society Policy Institute and one of the sharpest China analysts working today. We dig into the 4th Plenary Session of the 20th Party Congress and what it reveals about China's evolving growth model — particularly the much-discussed but often misunderstood push against "involution" in key sectors like EVs and solar. Lizzi walks us through the structural incentives driving overcompetition, from local government finance and VAT collection to the challenges of rebalancing supply and demand. We also discuss her recent Foreign Affairs piece on China's manufacturing model, why "overcapacity" is a misleading frame, the unexpected upsides of China's industrial strategy for the global green transition, and what happened at the Trump-Xi meeting in Busan. This is a conversation about getting beyond the binaries and understanding the actual mechanisms — and contradictions — shaping China's economic trajectory.4:43 – What Western reporting missed in the 4th Plenum communique 6:34 – The "anti-involution" push and what it really means 9:57 – Is China's domestic demand abnormally low?

Imagine being told you have a terminal illness. Would it change the way you approach each day? Two years ago, Thad Reichley went to the doctor because he had the flu. When initial attempts to address his symptoms were unsuccessful, additional procedures revealed the presence of three dozen tumors in the lining around his lungs. He was diagnosed with stage 4 metastatic melanoma. There is no known cure for the disease. A father, husband, educator, and pro-level endurance athlete, Thad's “job” over the past 24 months has been to fight cancer and stay alive. In addition to his treatments' side effects (fever, vomiting, inflammation of the eyes, and savage bouts of colitis), Thad has learned to navigate the negative “you are not enough" voices in his head. He's also come to change his expectations about what makes a good day. “Sometimes” he says, that while trying to carpe every diem, “just walking the dog has to be enough.” Thad and I know each other through his wife, Leigh, who was my colleague on the sales team at Facebook in LA. She's a very funny, very committed person who, as you will hear, is no stranger to cancer. I am grateful to Thad for sharing his story and hope it inspires YOU to go to the doctor if you haven't been in a while. As importantly, I hope that it reminds you to cherish and protect your health and loved ones for as long as you have them. Here's how Thad sums it all up: 1. Go to the doctor 2. Listen to your wife 3. Hug your kids, and 4. Tell the people in your life you love them. Prior to his diagnosis, Thad spent two decades as an educator, both as a teacher and an administrator at well-known schools like Crossroads in Santa Monica and Mark Day School in Marin County. He earned his BA at the University of Washington, Master's degrees from both UCLA and Brown University, and his doctorate from the University of Southern California. ✍️Please rate and review Reasonably Happy (https://ratethispodcast.com/paulopod) ✍️

There's a way to move through your forties that looks busy but stays small, a way to talk about calling while postponing obedience, and a way to live half-present in the present while telling yourself you're being "wise." This week on Win Today, Mark Batterson joins me to reclaim the middle decades as the beginning, not the end, and to confront why delayed obedience is still disobedience and why the slow, daily road of incremental growth produces what hurry never can. We'll name the subtle drift that fragments attention, why "later" sounds prudent but hollows character, and how gradual progress—received as a gift and practiced as a rhythm—forms a durable life. Guest Bio Mark Batterson is the lead pastor of National Community Church in Washington, D.C., and the New York Times–bestselling author of The Circle Maker and more than twenty books. He writes and teaches about courageous obedience, holy imagination, and the long game of spiritual formation. Today's conversation isn't about his résumé—it's about your next act: recovering presence, refusing delay, and embracing the slow, durable gains that shape a life.

The Virginia gubernatorial race has already been called for Democrat Abigail Spanberger. The races for Attorney General in Virgnia and New Jersey governor are much tighter. Who deserves the blame if Mamdani wins in New York? Guests: Bruce Harrell and Katie Wilson make their final pitches to voters. // LongForm: GUEST: U.S. Assistant Attorney General for the Civil Rights Division Harmeet Dhillon chimes in on UW forcing professors to pledge allegiance to DEI during their application process and why Washington must turn its voter data over to the DOJ. // Quick Hit: Voter turnout in Washington has been pathetic.

Tonight, we're not summarizing — we're reading it. This is the full, unedited November 3, 2025, letter from Congressman Jamie Raskin to Attorney General Pam Bondi, demanding answers about what he calls a “gigantic cover-up” inside the Department of Justice surrounding the shutdown of the Epstein co-conspirator investigation. In this extraordinary letter, Raskin lays out a timeline that should shake every American who believes in justice.  He reveals that until January 2025, the U.S. Attorney's Office for the Southern District of New York was actively investigating Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell's co-conspirators, supported by testimony from nearly 50 survivors naming at least 20 men involved in the trafficking network. Then, suddenly, the investigation was transferred to DOJ headquarters in Washington, D.C. Six months later, the case was declared closed — “no evidence found.” Raskin's letter questions everything:  ⚖️ Why the DOJ shut down a live federal sex-trafficking probe.

For two seasons now, I've shared a broadcast booth with Guy Haberman—a voice built for Saturdays and a friend built for life. This week on Y-Option, fueled by our founding sponsor 76 — keeping you on the GO-GO-GO so you never miss a beat, I sat down with Guy for one last conversation before his world changes forever. In a few weeks, he and his wife Alyssa will welcome their first child.So before football, before anything else, we talked about that.Our job as broadcasters is to notice—to study body language, tone, and timing. So I asked him what he's noticed most about his wife through the journey to parenthood. What followed was a reflection on steadiness, partnership, and what happens when the people closest to you reveal their best traits in the hardest moments. It reminded me that even in a profession obsessed with highlights, the most meaningful growth often happens quietly—off-camera, between breaths, in the spaces life gives us before everything changes.We also dove into the lessons learned from production meeting with head coaches, off-line chats on the sideline and the principles that are shared between a locker room and a living room.Guy not only works Saturday's in the fall but also Sunday's as one of the radio voices for the San Francisco 49ers. And once his son arrives he will be back on the hardwood calling basketball games for Big Ten Network, Fox and NBC/Peacock. When we talked about the craft of broadcasting, Guy described the last two seasons as an exercise in presence. Each week he focused on getting a little bit better—on one small thing—knowing this would be a shorter season before he turned his attention to fatherhood. That kind of intentional growth struck me. It's easy to talk about chasing big dreams; it's harder to live in the details of daily improvement. And as someone who studied film with him each week, he's right and he lived with a growth mindset all summer and fall.The theme that echoed throughout our time together was simple: the best performers—whether in football, broadcasting, or life—operate with clarity, humility, and consistency. They don't get caught up in what's next. They just keep showing up, refining their process, trusting the people around them, and letting time reveal the result. From Kyle Shanahan to Ryan Day to PJ Fleck and everyone in between—there is a red thread that ties success together.This episode isn't about highlights or hot takes—it's about friendship, discipline, and the beauty of life's little gifts. It's about learning to Chase What Matters, on and off the field and if you get a little lucky, you'll get a few great games along the way.I'm off to Madison, Wisconsin this weekend for Washington, finally ranked and in the latest College Football Playoff rankings, as they visit Camp Randall for the first time in 57 years. More on the CFP this weekend and as the old saying goes, "the games they remember are the ones in November.”Much love and stay steady,YogiY-Option: College Football with Yogi Roth is a reader-supported publication.

Shoot us a Text.Episode #1188: Today we're talking Toyota's global muscle amid U.S. tariffs, Waymo's bold autonomous rollout into new cities, and why your store's holiday playlist might be just early enough to keep shoppers smiling.Show Notes with links:Toyota posted a surprising 62% jump in second-quarter profit and raised its annual outlook, even as U.S. tariffs continue to take a multi-billion-dollar toll. The automaker's resilience stems from its increasingly global revenue base and a strong performance outside North America.Despite nearly $3B in quarterly tariff costs, Toyota's bottom line rose thanks to gains in Europe, Africa, and currency advantages.Q2 net profit hit ¥932B (~$6.2B), easily beating analyst estimates of ¥801B (~$5.3B), and revenue rose 8.2% year-over-year to ¥12.4 trillion (~$82.7B).President Trump, speaking to U.S. troops in Japan last week, said Prime Minister Kishida told him Toyota would invest $10B in U.S. manufacturing. “Go out and buy a Toyota,” Trump added.Waymo is accelerating its position as the autonomous driving front-runner, announcing a major expansion into San Diego, Detroit, and Las Vegas. The move adds to an already impressive footprint that includes full-service robotaxi operations in Los Angeles, Phoenix, and the Bay Area.Waymo will begin service in San Diego in 2026, with Detroit and Las Vegas to follow shortly after.The company is emphasizing snow-readiness in Detroit, citing ongoing cold-weather testing in Michigan's Upper Peninsula.Waymo's return to Las Vegas is symbolic—it passed the first-ever state self-driving test in Nevada back in 2012.Waymo continues logging 2 million autonomous miles per week and plans to launch in Miami, Dallas, Washington, and even London by 2026.Retailers are decking the halls earlier than ever, and despite the usual grumbling about “Christmas creep,” most shoppers seem totally fine with it.

Welcome to another Market Dominance Guys episode, and today we're trying something completely different. What happens when you spend four hours in a studio recording sales training content, and then someone creates an AI version of you? Well, you're about to find out. Our Chris Beall recently worked with Alex Kutsishin from myfuel.io to create AI-powered training experiences. The result? An AI Chris that sounds remarkably like the real thing – maybe a younger version – and knows everything Chris teaches about cold calling, market dominance, and the psychology of trust. In this experimental episode, the real Chris interviews his AI counterpart, diving into First to Converse principles, list-building strategies, and how to master the emotional journey of cold calling. It's enlightening, it's creative, and yes, it's a little weird hearing Chris talk to himself. But it showcases an efficient new way for sales teams and enterprises to access expert training 24/7. Let's listen in as human meets algorithm in the pursuit of sales excellence. Alex Kutsishin, Chief Executive Officer Alex Kutsishin is co-founder and CEO of FUEL !nc, the world's first Performance-as-a-Service platform for sales teams and leadership designed to redefine business education and performance standards. With an entrepreneurial spirit evident since his youth, he has co-founded ten companies — from pioneering medical offices in Washington, D.C. to introducing the first American-based low-code, no-code platform for custom mobile websites. Kutsishin has won numerous awards, including EY Entrepreneur of the Year.

Barack Obama hits the campaign trail—and discusses Trump's sh*tposting—as voters head to the polls. Donald Trump sits down for a lengthy interview with 60 Minutes—the same program he sued in 2024—to discuss immigration raids, his new fascination with nuclear weapons, and his surprising pardon of a Chinese crypto tycoon. Jon, Lovett, and Tommy discuss the interview's most shocking moments, share their final thoughts on the 2025 elections, and react to the garish Gatsby-themed party the President threw at Mar-a-Largo as SNAP benefits expired for more than 40 million Americans on Halloween night. Then, George Retes, the combat veteran and American citizen who was detained by immigration agents with no explanation while driving to work, stops by the studio and shares his harrowing story.For a closed-captioned version of this episode, click here.
