À la Une: portrait croisé d'une famille israélienne et d'une famille palestinienne

C'est le magazine M, le supplément du Monde, qui a eu l'idée de ce portrait croisé, l'idée de retrouver deux familles déjà rencontrées juste après le 7 octobre 2023. La famille Weissmann tout d'abord, qui a survécu. « Réfugiée un temps près de Tel Aviv, une partie des Weissmann s'est réinstallée dans le village agricole de Netiv Haasara et vit désormais au rythme des bombardements voisins », raconte Annick Cojean, l'envoyée spéciale de M. Car la bande de Gaza est tout près. « Notre vie est au mochav (au village) », explique pourtant le patriarche Yaakov, quand la journaliste objecte « la guerre à moins d'un kilomètre, les mouvements de troupes et de véhicules sur la route numéro 4, le bourdonnement des drones et des hélicoptères ». Évoquant les hommes du Hamas, les viols, les meurtres, Yaakov Weissman déclare « deux millions de Gazaouis, deux millions de terroristes. C'en est fini pour moi d'essayer d'excuser, de comprendre, de faire la distinction entre les bons et les méchants, les barbares du Hamas et la population opprimée. Alors oui, c'est la guerre. Oui, il y a des bombes. Mais ça ne me fait plus rien ».Mon téléphone est un cimetièreCôté palestinien à présent, impossible d'aller à Gaza où les journalistes étrangers sont empêchés de se rendre, c'est donc en Cisjordanie que M a rencontré la famille Redwan. Plus précisément la mère, Reem, et l'une de ses filles, elles vivent à Ramallah, mais sont originaires de Gaza, où les parents de Reem et son petit frère ont été tués dans un bombardement, le 10 octobre 2023. « À Ramallah, dans leur patrie, en territoire palestinien, elles vivent de façon illégale », précise M. « Israël, qui délivre les papiers d'identité via l'Autorité Palestinienne, leur interdit de vivre en Cisjordanie, puisque leur adresse officielle est à Gaza ». La liste des proches tués là-bas s'allonge. Reem raconte : « On boit on mange on pleure. On boit on mange on enterre ». La mère de famille regarde les photos sur son téléphone. « Elle s'arrête sur des clichés d'adultes souriants, en fait défiler quelques-uns, puis repose l'appareil ». « Mon téléphone est devenu un cimetière »murmure-t-elle. Quel est son sentiment vis-à-vis des Israéliens ? Sa réponse est sans appel. « Ça fait bientôt 2 ans qu'on est dans une situation de génocide, le sang inonde les rues » dit-elle. « Qu'ont-ils fait en Israël ? Rien. Ni pour leurs otages, ni pour nos morts. Je vois une société qui tout entière veut tuer ».Guerre secrèteNous ouvrons à présent l'Express, qui consacre un long dossier à l'Algérie et la France, sous l'angle de l'espionnage. C'est à la Une de l'hebdomadaire : « France-Algérie : la guerre secrète des espions ». « Soixante ans de coups tordus et de petits arrangements entre initiés », ajoute l'Express, qui donne pour exemple « ces agents chargés de la lutte contre les opposants algériens vivant en France ». « Un grand classique des dictatures », remarque l'hebdomadaire. « Sauf qu'Alger va plus loin. Jusqu'à l'agression physique en territoire français ». « Deux sources proches du dossier », ajoute l'Express, « nous confirment que la DGSI suspecte le régime algérien d'avoir commandité trois agressions récentes d'opposants, tous condamnés en Algérie, tous réfugiés politiques en France ».  Comment les espions algériens fonctionnent-ils ? Les consulats sont semble-t-il l'un de leurs points de chute préférés. L'Express a interrogé Jérôme Poirot. Ancien coordinateur adjoint du renseignement à l'Élysée, il déclare que « les services de renseignement algériens ont toujours été très actifs sur le territoire français depuis la lutte pour l'indépendance. On peut estimer qu'il y a plusieurs centaines d'agents dans l'Hexagone. Il y en a bien évidemment une part dans les consulats ». Ce, alors que la tension ne cesse d'augmenter entre la France et l'Algérie, rappelons que l'une et l'autre, ont récemment (et réciproquement) expulsé 12 agents diplomatiques et consulaires. Harcelé pour un tweetLe Parisien-Dimanche s'intéresse lui aussi aux étrangers qui, sur le territoire français, sont toujours persécutés par les autorités de leur pays d'origine. Le journal a rencontré Hongmin Yin, un étudiant chinois de vingt-huit ans, arrivé en France en 2019. « Il nous tend, sans un mot, son téléphone, dès le début de l'entretien », raconte le Parisien-Dimanche. « Sur l'écran : une avalanche d'alertes : des tentatives de piratages de ses comptes personnels, plusieurs fois par jour ». Un véritable harcèlement. Le jeune homme n'est pourtant pas « un opposant de premier plan ». « Ce qu'on lui reproche ? Un tweet ». Les faits remontent à 2016, lorsque Hong Min Yin, « apprend à contourner la censure » et visionne une vidéo du massacre de la place Tian'anmen, en juin 1989. Bouleversé, il poste cette vidéo sur Twitter, accompagnée de ces mots : « les assassins doivent payer ». « Une alerte s'allume, quelque part, sur un écran à Pékin », poursuit le Parisien-Dimanche. « Hongmin Yin vient d'entrer dans le viseur des autorités et n'en sortira plus ». « Il y a trois mois, il a reçu une convocation de l'ambassade de Chine à Paris. (…) il ne s'y est pas rendu. Il sait que ce genre de voyage ne prévoit pas de retour », conclut le Parisien-Dimanche.

John is joined by former federal prosecutor and FBI general counsel Andrew Weissmann to discuss Donald Trump's escalating attacks on the judiciary and what it means for the rule of law. Weissmann explains why the showdown between the Trump administration and federal district judge James Boasberg over the deportation of some 200 alleged Venezuelan gang members last weekend amounts to the first genuine constitutional crisis of the Trump 2.0 era; Supreme Court Chief Justice John Roberts viewed Trump's call for Boasberg's impeachment as so improper that Roberts felt compelled to issue a rare public rebuke of a sitting president; and Trump's recent speech at DOJ headquarters was even more ominous than it sounded. Andrew also reflects on why being targeted directly by Trump—who referred to him in that speech as “scum”—bothers him less than you might assume.

Figliuzzi and Weissmann weigh in on Patel's qualifications for the job, his ideas for radically restructuring and reorienting the FBI, his vows to use federal law enforcement to target Trump's adversaries, and his espousal of a panoply of far-right conspiracy theories. The two former G-men also assess Pam Bondi, Trump's replacement pick for Attorney General after the withdrawal of Matt Gaetz; Joe Biden's blanket pardon for his son, Hunter; and Steve Bannon's focus on seeing Weissmann jailed for unspecified Deep State transgressions.

#28 - Denis Noble - Why The Last 80 Years of Biology Was Wrong & What Does it Mean For Us?

The Innovation Civilization Podcast

We're joined by Dr. Denis Noble, Professor Emeritus of Cardiovascular Physiology at the University of Oxford, and the father of 'systems biology'. He is known for his groundbreaking creation of the first mathematical model of the heart's electrical activity in the 1960s which radically transformed our understanding of the heart. Dr. Noble's contributions have revolutionized our understanding of cardiac function and the broader field of biology. His work continues to challenge long-standing biological concepts, including gene-centric views like Neo-Darwinism. In this episode, Dr. Noble discusses his critiques of fundamental biological theories that have shaped science for over 80 years, such as the gene self-replication model and the Weissmann barrier. He advocates for a more holistic, systems-based approach to biology, where genes, cells, and their environments interact in complex networks rather than a one-way deterministic process. We dive deep into Dr. Noble's argument that biology needs to move beyond reductionist views, emphasizing that life is more than just the sum of its genetic code. He explains how AI struggles to replicate even simple biological systems, and how biology's complexity suggests that life's logic lies not in DNA alone but in the entire organism. The conversation covers his thoughts on the flaws of Neo-Darwinism, the influence of environmental factors on evolution, and the future of biology as a field that recognizes the interaction between nature and nurture. We also explore the implications of his work for health and longevity, and how common perspectives on genetics might need rethinking. All the topics we covered in the episode: -The critique of Neo-Darwinism and the future of evolutionary theory. -Systems biology: Understanding life beyond the gene. -The complexity of biology: Why reductionism falls short. -Evolution and inheritance: The role of environment in shaping species. -Health implications of Dr. Noble's work: Longevity, lifestyle, and the limits of genome-based predictions. Join us for a thrilling discussion on the future of biology, evolution, and the practical implications for health and science.

El 3 de septiembre de 1939 los nazis invadieron su ciudad e inmediatamente la sinagoga fue incendiada y los judíos despojados de sus bienes y de su libertad. En junio de 1942 la familia de Gerda fue deportada a un gueto. Sus padres fueron enviados a Auschwitz donde perecieron en las cámaras de gas. A Gerda la enviaron al sistema de campos de Gross-Rosen, donde realizó trabajos forzados en fábricas textiles durante el resto de la guerra. Gerda fue liberada por un soldado estadounidense, Kurt Klein, con quien se casó en 1947. El matrimonio se radicó en Estados Unidos y durante toda la vida fueron activistas y dedicaron sus esfuerzos a la Educación y transmisión del Holocausto. Gerda falleció en 2022 a los 97 años.

Hi everyone, it's Emma Weissman, the host of Humans of Travel from Travel Age West. We've decided to re release a few of our favorite Humans of Travel interviews on the weeks where we aren't dropping new episodes. And you're listening to one of those encore presentations right now. In addition to being an author, a TedX speaker and a frequent media contributor, Sahara Rose De Vore is the founder of The Travel Coach Network (TCN). Now, you may be wondering — what is a travel coach? What types of clients do they work with, and what's the difference between a travel coach and a travel advisor, or a traditional travel agent? In the latest episode of Humans of Travel, De Vore breaks down the specifics of her travel career. Travel coaches, like De Vore, help individuals or companies — such as tour operators, DMCs, travel agencies or corporate meeting planners — hone in on the psychology of travel, and how they can best alter their marketing or improve their company's culture based on a human-centric approach, one that takes into account their consumers' unique mindsets, fears, obstacles, professional goals and unique personal experiences.  In addition to being a travel coach who focuses specifically on wellness, De Vore helps budding travel coaches develop their businesses through TCN and through her Travel Coach Certification Program, an accredited program from the International Coaching Federation.  Listeners will also hear about De Vore's own travel experiences, which include going solo to 84 countries across the world, and how she pushes herself out of her comfort zone while living with an anxiety disorder.

M, le supplément du Monde, a eu l'idée de mettre en vis-à-vis deux portraits, deux familles, les Weissmann, et les Redwan. Les premiers ont « échappé au massacre du Hamas et sont réfugiés chez des proches près de Tel Aviv », les seconds vivent en Cisjordanie et pleurent leurs grands-parents, morts sous les bombes à Gaza. Pour Yaakov Weissman, 83 ans, arrivé en Israël en 1959, « l'horreur toujours peut ressurgir. Encore et encore ».« Mais, dit-il, la différence avec les siècles d'agression et de traques qui nous ont précédés, c'est que nous avons désormais un pays. C'est le seul asile sûr pour les juifs du monde entier et il doit à tout prix le rester ». Une certitude que le 7 octobre ne semble pas avoir ébranlé. « Un peuple palestinien ? » Il se souvient de son arrivée en Israël, et assure que « cela ne voulait rien dire.  Il n'y avait pas d'identité palestinienne, dit-il. Des gens de toutes sortes, essentiellement des pays arabes alentour, s'étaient installés sur ce petit territoire, mais ce n'était en aucune façon un pays ».Comme en écho, la famille Redwan raconte son histoire. Celle des grands-parents, « chassés de leur foyer en 1948, installés un temps en Arabie saoudite, ils n'ont jamais cessé de cultiver leur identité palestinienne », souligne le supplément du Monde. Des grands-parents, « tués dans un bombardement israélien à Gaza, le 10 octobre »... « La belle maison orange et le jardin où le patriarche avait planté des fèves et de la vigne ne sont plus qu'un tas de ruines ». Leur fille Reem, « apaise sa douleur en se disant qu'ils sont morts en martyrs (...) elle croit qu'une place spéciale leur est réservée au paradis ». « J'ai vécu dans cinq maisons différentes à Gaza », raconte-t-elle,« elles ont toutes été bombardées. Je suis une éternelle réfugiée ». Reem et ses filles vivent désormais à Ramallah, en Cisjordanie, et elles ne peuvent pas en sortir. Le père, lui, est « coincé à Khan Younès, dans le sud de la Bande de Gaza ».La Cisjordanie en ligne de mireLe Point a enquêté sur un phénomène resté en arrière-plan, éclipsé par les bombardements sur Gaza, et l'inquiétude pour les otages israéliens... « Depuis le 7 octobre, explique l'hebdomadaire, les extrémistes israéliens multiplient les actions punitives » en Cisjordanie. Selon le ministère de la Santé, à Ramallah, plus de 220 Palestiniens auraient été tués en un mois par l'armée israélienne et les colons, en Cisjordanie. Le Point a rencontré Morsi et Akram, deux frères pour lesquels « la saison des olives a tourné au cauchemar ». Le 11 novembre, alors qu'ils réalisent les premières récoltes dans le champ familial, ils sont menacés par des hommes armés, qu'ils identifient comme des colons. « L'un d'eux », raconte Morsi, m'a tenu en joue avec son fusil M16, et m'a lancé : « je vais te descendre. Si tu oses sortir à nouveau, je te brûlerai vif ». « Depuis ce jour, précise Le Point, Morsi et Akram ne sortent plus de chez eux, où ils se sont cloîtrés avec femme et enfants ».Donald Trump, le retour ?« Au secours, Trump revient » s'alarme l'Express... parlant d'une hypothèse « vraisemblable », qui provoque des « sueurs froides dans le monde entier ».  Car l'ex-président « tient la corde dans les sondages », face à Joe Biden, en vue de l'élection présidentielle l'année prochaine. Trump vainqueur ? Une perspective qui est loin de concerner les seuls États-Unis... « Trump pourrait, nous dit-on, utiliser son pouvoir exécutif pour ralentir ou même arrêter le soutien à l'Ukraine approuvé par le Congrès américain ». Et ce n'est pas tout, poursuit l'Express, « le retour de Trump aux affaires impacterait aussi le Moyen-Orient avec, d'une part, une position plus dure que celle de Biden vis-à-vis de l'Iran, le Hamas et le Hezbollah et d'autre part, un ' soutien total à Israël ', comme il l'a déjà annoncé ». L'Express a aussi interrogé Françoise Coste, historienne du Parti Républicain. À la question « À quoi ressemblerait Trump 2 » ? Elle répond « ce serait Trump 1, mais en pire, parce qu'il sera plus aguerri et que désormais il connaît les institutions ». « Il a déjà annoncé, ajoute Françoise Coste, qu'il poursuivra en justice Joe Biden et ses conseillers. On ignore dans quel but, ce serait une simple vendetta ».Enfin, un portrait sans complaisance dans l'Obs...Portrait de Patrick Pouyanné, le patron de Total, « le roi du pétrole », ironise l'Obs, selon lequel « il freine la transition énergétique ». « Il est tellement en confiance » ajoute l'hebdomadaire, « qu'il peut annoncer sans gêne que son groupe prévoit d'accroître, de 2 à 3 % tous les ans, sa production de pétrole et de gaz, d'ici à la fin 2028 ». De son côté, l'ONG Greenpeace a « calculé que Total prépare 33 projets si émetteurs de CO2 qu'on peut les qualifier de "bombes climatiques ». Quant aux réunions de travail avec Patrick Pouyanné, elles virent souvent au « jeu de massacre », nous dit l'Obs... Un familier de ces réunions raconte les invectives : « c'est nul », « vous n'avez rien compris », « c'est n'importe quoi ». « Le patron de Total ne fait confiance à personne » conclut l'hebdomadaire.

On this day in legal history, September 26, 1789, John Jay was made the first Chief Justice of the United States after the Senate confirmed his nomination.On this day, September 26, we commemorate a cornerstone moment for the American judicial system: the passing of the Judiciary Act of 1789. Signed by President George Washington, this landmark legislation established the Supreme Court of the United States, laying down the legal framework that would ultimately make it the most significant judicial body in the world. The Judiciary Act provided for a Supreme Court comprised of six justices, and on that very day, Washington nominated John Jay as the first Chief Justice, along with John Rutledge, William Cushing, John Blair, Robert Harrison, and James Wilson as associate justices. The U.S. Senate wasted no time in confirming all six appointments.While the U.S. Supreme Court was originally established by Article 3 of the U.S. Constitution, the Judiciary Act of 1789 fleshed out the high court's practical structure and functions. It granted the Court ultimate jurisdiction over all laws, especially those challenging their constitutionality. Additionally, the Court was tasked with handling cases involving treaties, foreign diplomats, and maritime law. The first session of the Court took place on February 1, 1790, in New York City's Royal Exchange Building, further cementing its role in American governance.Over the years, the Supreme Court has evolved both in structure and influence. While the number of justices fluctuated during the 19th century, Congress stabilized it at nine justices in 1869—a number that can still be altered by legislative action. Today, the Court stands as a pivotal institution in American society, often playing a decisive role in resolving pressing issues, especially during times of constitutional crisis. Thus, the events of September 26, 1789, mark not just the inception of the Supreme Court, but the beginning of a judicial institution critical to the shaping of American democracy.Stefan Passantino, a former lawyer for the Trump White House, has filed a defamation lawsuit against Andrew Weissmann, a former special counsel prosecutor. The lawsuit alleges that Weissmann falsely claimed that Passantino had improperly coached his client, Cassidy Hutchinson, a former White House aide, to lie in her testimony to the House Jan. 6 committee. Passantino denies having done so, labeling the accusation as an "insidious lie" in the legal complaint. The lawsuit was filed in the U.S. District Court in Washington, D.C., and asks for a jury award of an unspecified amount exceeding $75,000.This is not Passantino's first legal action related to the Jan. 6 probe. In April, he filed a similar lawsuit against the House committee, stating that members had also spread false information about him. The issue revolves around Cassidy Hutchinson's claim to the committee that Passantino advised her to say she couldn't recall specific details about an incident involving former President Donald Trump on January 6.After Hutchinson's testimony became public, Passantino's law firm, Michael Best & Friedrich, severed its relationship with him. Additionally, a group called Lawyers Defending Democracy filed a complaint to have Passantino's law license revoked over his counsel to Hutchinson. Passantino alleges that Weissmann's actions were driven by "partisan animus" and resulted in "injurious falsehood" against him. He also claims that a statement from Weissmann, made on September 15, has significantly damaged his professional reputation and caused financial losses. As of the reporting date, Weissmann has not responded to requests for comment.​​Ex-Trump Lawyer Passantino Sues Weissmann, Alleging DefamationIn the world of private equity, a phenomenon called "zombie funds" has emerged, characterized by aging firms unable to raise new capital and struggling to exit old investments. This issue has been highlighted by the case of Fenway Partners, once a booming company, now reduced to a three-man team with a lingering investment in a helmet-making company beset by lawsuits. Industry-wide, there's been a decline in new fundraising, partly due to rising interest rates and partly because pension funds have maxed out their allocations to the illiquid asset class of private equity. As a result, many older funds are finding it increasingly hard to liquidate their existing assets.Public pension funds across the U.S. are particularly stuck with such zombie funds. These include funds managed by First Reserve, an energy-sector specialist, and Yucaipa Cos, a money manager led by supermarket mogul and Democratic donor Ron Burkle. Analysts warn that when private equity firms don't raise new funds, it leads to the gradual loss of staff, leaving only a skeleton crew to manage remaining assets, which in turn deteriorates fund performance. This creates a dilemma for investors, as exiting these problematic funds typically means incurring steep discounts.Pensions and endowments can't easily exit these funds, nor replace the managers unless there is evidence of wrongdoing. Reports from 10 major public retirement systems show that they have a median 4% of their private equity portfolios locked up in funds older than 2009, amounting to around $6.8 billion across more than 900 fund investments. These often-underperforming investments can remain stuck for years, eroding returns and tying up valuable managerial time.The first wave of zombie funds emerged after the 2008 financial crisis. Now, a new wave is taking shape as pension funds are steering less cash into private equity, especially towards smaller, untested firms or those with tarnished histories. The phenomenon represents a stark counterpoint to the promise that private equity can offer reliable, long-term returns. The situation is worsened by slowdowns in the mergers and acquisitions and IPO markets, making asset sales more difficult. Therefore, while some funds may survive in a weakened state, others could face dramatic derailment, leaving investors with limited options and less-than-ideal outcomes.Wave of Zombies Is Rising From Private Equity's Slow Carnage (1)The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) is considering a significant overhaul of federal credit reporting rules under the Fair Credit Reporting Act of 1970. The changes could bring additional companies, including data brokers not currently covered, under these rules. Among the proposals is a potential ban on the use of medical debt in consumers' credit reports. The CFPB is also concerned about "credit header data" and may limit when such data can be sold for use by various entities like lenders and law enforcement.The proposed changes would also require major credit reporting companies like Experian, Equifax, and TransUnion to improve their data security measures and overhaul how they handle consumer disputes. They may need to investigate systemic issues based on consumer complaints and notify those affected. Legal disputes are also being revisited; the current bifurcation between legal and factual disputes may be amended to ensure consumer protections.The outline of the proposal was submitted to a small business review panel, and only after their review will a full proposal be developed. The changes are expected to have a far-reaching impact on all businesses involved in consumer data, according to law firms and consumer advocates. Critics argue that some proposals might exceed the CFPB's legal authority, particularly as the agency has faced legal setbacks in federal courts.It's worth noting that the CFPB has focused its outline mainly on the impact of these changes on small businesses, leaving room for potentially even more extensive changes that would mainly affect large credit reporting companies. The formal rule, once issued, is expected to face legal challenges. Both supporters and critics of the proposal agree that the language in the existing credit reporting law might be broad enough to make these significant changes legal, but the agency's recent losses in court cases could create hurdles.CFPB Eyes Broad Expansion of Federal Credit Reporting StandardsThe IRS's new rules, detailed in Notice 2023-63, clarify the definition of software development for tax purposes and require most related expenses to be amortized over time rather than expensed in the current year. This change poses significant challenges for bootstrap software developers—startups that lack typical streams of venture capital and often rely on expensing software development costs immediately. Prior to 2022, Section 174 of the tax code allowed businesses to expense research and development costs in the year they were incurred, which was especially beneficial for startups and small developers.Another issue arising from the new rules is the administrative burden of distinguishing between what constitutes "maintenance activities" and what is considered an "upgrade or enhancement." While maintenance activities are exceptions to the amortization requirement, the definitions are not clear-cut, leading to complications for developers and potential legal disputes.The new tax rules create ambiguity that could discourage innovation by making software acquisition less burdensome than software development from a tax standpoint. Developers have expressed disappointment that recent changes in tax law, specifically the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (TCJA), did not revert to allowing current-year expensing or provide a narrower definition of "software development."In my colum I suggest that the simplest solution to foster innovation would be to revert to the pre-TCJA current year expensing for software development. Failure to revise these changes could potentially stifle software innovation, especially for startups and smaller companies that were previously incentivized by the ability to expense development costs in the current year.New IRS R&E Rules Risk Stifling Software Innovation for Startups Get full access to Minimum Competence - Daily Legal News Podcast at www.minimumcomp.com/subscribe

Editor's Note: This episode of Humans of Travel includes a firsthand account of the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine. Julia Kulik, owner of Kyiv-based JC Travel Ukraine (also known as Enjoy Ukraine) has spent her travel industry career welcoming inbound tourists to Ukraine and Moldova via customizable private and group tours. That is, until earlier this year, when Russian president Vladimir Putin ordered an invasion into her home country. Forced to leave her husband, Alex, behind due to a governmental mandate that forbids men of a certain age to leave the country, Kulik fled to the Netherlands with her then-10-year-old daughter, Polina. The two currently rent a small guest house in a Dutch village and are living as refugees. In this episode of Humans of Travel, Kulik reflects on the moment she knew her life would be changed forever: waking up to early-morning explosions that signaled the start of the war, and formatting her plan to escape the country. Listeners will hear details of that escape, as well as how Kulik's life has changed since that fateful day. She'll also discuss the war's impact on her business, and what she hopes the future will hold for JC Travel Ukraine, her family and her own country. In addition, Kulik will speak on the importance of spreading awareness about the Russia-Ukraine war, and about her desire to connect more with travel industry colleagues via freelance marketing and social media work. INSIDE THIS EPISODE 01:30: Meet Julia Kulik, owner of JC Travel Ukraine, an inbound tour operator based in Kyiv, Ukraine 2:00: Kulik shares news about her new life with Polina in the Netherlands, and what her husband, Alex, is doing in Ukraine. 06:00: Kulik reflects on the day that Russian president Vladimir Putin invaded Ukraine.  09:00: Without a set plan in place, Kulik quickly begins planning her escape to the Netherlands with Polina. 11:30: Kulik details her journey, by car, through Moldova, Romania, Hungary, Austria and Germany. 12:30: Weissmann and Kulik discuss the importance of having hope during hard times. 18:00: Kulik talks about her business, JC Travel Ukraine, and how the pandemic and current conflict is affecting it. 19:30: What does the future hold for Kulik and for her business? 22:00: Kulik explains why it's important not to turn a blind eye when it comes to the world, and why it's important to gather news from more than one source. 24:00: How can the travel industry support Kulik during this time?

This week marks the premiere of the latest episode of "The Royal Tour", a one-hour PBS special hosted by travel journalist Peter Greenberg that showcases a country’s tourism spots -- and history, culture, food, personal stories and current events -- but with a twist: the country's head of state is Greenberg’s tour guide. Our editor in chief Arnie Weissmann has been along for the filming of several "Royal Tour" episodes, and most recently he was in Tanzania to see the country with its current president, Samia Suluhu Hassan. To have a president, prime minister or member of the royal family show you around their country seems like an incredible opportunity, not to mention one filled with logistical hurdles. Both Greenberg and Weissmann joined the Folo to talk about the origins of the "Royal Tour", its protocols, some of Greenberg’s greatest memories and the most stirring moments of their time in Tanzania. This episode was recorded Thursday, April 14, and has been edited for length and clarity.

This week we’re turning the episode over to editor in chief Arnie Weissmann, who spoke last month with three major travel advisor players in London. Why London? The group was there at the invitation of a group of hoteliers who were mulling different ways to get the word out to Americans that London was “open” for travel. Their solution was to turn to the agency consortium Virtuoso, headed by Matthew Upchurch, and one of Virtuoso’s preferred suppliers, a tour company called Noteworthy that specializes in special access and exclusive experiences. In this episode you’ll hear from Weissmann, Upchurch, Vanessa McGovern, co-founder of Gifted Travel Network and Rob Karp, the founder of MilesAhead, about “process fatigue,” why travelers should choose a travel advisor as well as why travel advisors should be choosy about their travelers – and why it’s never been a better time to be a traveler. Overtourism. Customer service. And you’ll hear about experiences developed by Noteworthy and the guests’ coolest experiences in London.
