The global rise of authoritarianism today is a puzzle: democracies were supposed to be immune to such impulses, but the current political landscape of countries as diverse as India, Hungary, and the United States show that they're not.Why are we seeing a resurgence of authoritarianism? And why did it take so many experts by surprise?In this episode, Mark Blyth looks for answers to these questions with Alexander Cooley and Alex Dukalskis, authors of the new book Dictating the Agenda: The Authoritarian Resurgence in World Politics. In the book, they explore how authoritarian countries today project their ideologies around the world, and why their strategies may look eerily familiar to anyone who has studied the spread of western liberalism in the 1990s and 2000s.Guests on the episode:Alexander Cooley is a professor of political science at Barnard College.Alex Dukalskis is an associate professor in the School of Politics and International Relations at University College Dublin.Learn more about and purchase Dictating the Agenda The Authoritarian Resurgence in World PoliticsTranscript coming soon to our website

00:50 For many families, Alzheimer's doesn't arrive all at once—it creeps in through forgotten names, missed appointments, and the quiet heartbreak of watching someone you love slip away. In the Black community, the disease hits harder and earlier. Zaakirah Muhammad has a story about Alzheimer's—not just as a medical condition, but as a community issue that demands visibility, resources, and compassion.14:02 In part one of Anna Wilson's story, we heard the numbers, and the stories behind them, revealing how queer youth in Oklahoma are disproportionately pushed to the margins, often with nowhere safe to land. In part two, we go beyond the statistics to find young people navigating rejection, resilience, and survival in a state where support can feel scarce.25:55 In May of 2025, Oklahoma passed House Bill 1588, creating the Spring Creek Watershed Study Act, to address waterway contamination from poultry farm waste in northeastern Oklahoma. The bill's passage is due in part to a local non-profit which has worked for decades to protect the Spring Creek Watershed. This month, Roma Carter has the first part of the story.37:32 On a small stage in Tulsa, big stories are being told—stories of Black womanhood, survival, joy, and reckoning. World Stage Theater is bringing a bold new production to life with For Colored Girls Who Have Considered Suicide / When the Rainbow Is Enuf a production of Ntozake Shange's 1976 groundbreaking choreopoem. First written to give voice to what was too often silenced, the work still resonates decades later. Kelli McCloud-Schingen, executive director of World Stage Theater, discusses how this production honors Shange's legacy while simultaneously speaking directly to the current moment.41:12 Black history isn't only marked by struggle—it's also filled with moments of laughter, brilliance, and pride that stay with us for a lifetime. In this story, Sondra Slade brings us back to a personal remembrance, but also a shared one, echoing the quiet questions and powerful affirmations that shape how we come to know ourselves.Focus: Black Oklahoma is produced in partnership with KOSU Radio & Tri-City Collective.

Powerful message from Secretary of State Marco Rubio for Europe over the weekend. Hillary Clinton and AOC teamed up to deliver a disastrous double act at the Munich Security Conference, turning what should have been a showcase of American resolve into a bitter anti-Trump therapy session that exposed their outdated liberal agendas. Clinton got thoroughly schooled by a Czech leader on Ukraine and Trump policies, coming off as a divisive relic interrupting and mocking allies while admitting migration "went too far" in a desperate bid for relevance. Meanwhile, AOC fumbled a simple question on defending Taiwan against China with hesitant word salad, all while peddling her socialist spin on foreign policy tying authoritarianism to income inequality—proving both are unfit to represent a strong, united America in the future.

This week we discuss the whether or not a team should allow their players to participate in international competitions. Teams from MLB or other leagues drag their feet on this idea, but should they just allow these players to go compete? For our This Week In Baseball, we discuss the 1920 rule change prohibiting alterations of the baseball. We discuss how effective this change has been, but also how important it is that the change was made at all.Our Hall of Famer this week is outfielder Ralph Kiner. Kiner certainly was a fantastic player for in a short period of time, but was that enough for us to wholeheartedly endorse his inclusion into Cooperstown?In our singlular parting shot this week discuss athlete owned restaurants. Some have succeeded, many have not, but what was the secret sauce to that and why do so many athletes go down this pathEnjoy our new crop of weekly commercials Wheaties and Ralph Kiner, Griffey Jr with Ichiro, and Buster Posey for MLB the Show!Please join us as we discuss baseball topics and we continue our mission to make The Hall small.

The IPS DEPROGRAM session from late January 2026 focuses on the deconstruction of what it describes as manufactured historical events and the identification of predictive programming within mainstream cinema. The broadcast analyzes recurring symbolic patterns—such as the color green and the number 37—to argue that modern news events are scripted "psyops" designed to manipulate public perception,,.Engineered Martyrs and the "37" Pattern: The analysis identifies a recurring pattern where "martyrs" of the left, such as Renee Good and Alex Preddy, are both 37 years old and die under circumstances that mirror fictional scripts,,. This includes a Green Beret who blew up a Cybertruck, also aged 37, suggesting a templated approach to these news stories,.Predictive Programming in Cinema: Movies like Wicked (Part 1 and 2) and The Madness are framed as "reinforcement content" that prepares the population to accept specific narratives,. For example, the Wizard of Oz character is viewed as a proxy for Donald Trump, while the "Wicked Witch" represents marginalized groups or Antifa rising against a "fraudulent" system,,.Symbolism of the Color Green: The broadcast traces the use of the color green—from the Joker's hair and the "Emerald City" (Seattle) to the band Green Day and the "Green Beret"—as a code for the political left and Antifa-led class warfare,,. This symbolism is seen as a tool for calculated provocation against the right.The Media Duopoly and the "World Stage": IPS posits that both mainstream and alternative media exist as a duopoly that operates within the same fictional universe,. True deprogramming involves moving to an "off-world stage" perspective to recognize that the entire "forest" of media is fake, rather than just individual "trees",.Mind War and Manufactured History: Drawing on the concept of "Mind War" (linked to General Paul Vallely), the session argues that history is being "bent" and scripted decades in advance,. This creates a hyperreality where real life and scripted events are merged so perfectly that the public can no longer distinguish between them,."This is not cherry picking. This is more like film criticism than anything. We're looking at the artistry, the craft.""What are they being prepared to believe? Because if they see it on TV, they'll believe it... They're already accepting the narratives.""If you're not pointing out that the whole forest is fake, you're wasting your time. You have to have the wide view.""The predictive programming content can be looked at as product placement advertisement for future historic events, which will be portrayed on the world stage.""We are nonbelievers... we delineate between the two timelines and refuse to believe the fake stuff."IPS.monster: The central hub for latest replays, Discord access, and think tank research,.timosman.substack: Blog featuring in-depth analysis on the symbolic meaning of the color green and other deconstructions,.If you are interested in a deeper look at specific movie breakdowns mentioned, such as The Madness or Mickey 17, would you like me to focus the next part of our conversation on those cinematic parallels?Key Topics and ThemesKey QuotesRelevant Links

 Our guest took on a sweeping assignment in his new book “To Dare Mighty Things: U.S. Defense Strategy Since the Revolution.” But Michael O’Hanlon, of the Brookings Institution, and the author of this ambitious work came away convinced that there has been a steadier strategic theme throughout our history than he had earlier imagined.  Whether in Democratic or Republican Administrations, America has been no shrinking violet when it comes to exercising our military capabilities.  On balance, with the acknowledgement that we’ve made numerous mistakes, it’s been as a force of good in the world.  And while superpowers throughout history have generally found other nations working to balance their powers and end up isolated in the world, America has had an uncanny ability to build international alliances.  This has been a unique feature of the American approach.  Will it continue under Donald Trump or will we shift from grand lofty principles, like human rights and the flowering of democracies, to a more self-promotional foreign policy?  And where will that lead.  That’s the subject of today’s podcast.

Shortly after Trump made tariff and military threats against European allies over Greenland, Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney delivered a blistering speech in Davos, saying the world order as we know it “is in the midst of a rupture.” Western leaders also have expressed dismay that the U.S. has become an untrustworthy partner. Asha and Renato chat with CNN's Jim Sciutto on how Trump's “Fortress America” view and volatile foreign policy moves have upended a world order in place since the middle of the 20th century and how it all potentially makes the U.S. less safe and less prosperous.

Madeleine Dean, a member of the House Foreign Affairs Committee, talks with Jen Psaki about how America's allies in Europe are interpreting Trump's petulance.Senator Richard Blumenthal joins Jen to discuss a secret memo that tells ICE agents they can raid homes without a warrant.   To listen to this show and other MS podcasts without ads, sign up for MS NOW Premium on Apple Podcasts.

President Donald Trump says the United States needs to purchase Greenland for national security purposes and has threatened military action to take over the Arctic island. The people of Greenland say their country is not for sale. European allies are pushing back and have increased their military presence on the island. In response, Trump threatened to impose 10% tariffs on Denmark, Norway, Sweden, France, the United Kingdom, the Netherlands and Finland starting Feb. 1 and rising to 25% on June 1 if no deal is reached. He says the tariffs will stay in effect until the U.S. takes control of Greenland. Are these actions the beginning of the end of NATO? Will the president's actions destroy relationships with our allies? How will China and Russia take advantage of the looming divide? Political and legal analyst Dr. Eric Claville provides perspective on the U.S. role in world politics.

Join Governor and Kendel Ehrlich for a rapid-fire discussion on trending topics making headlines this week.

The Herle Burly was created by Air Quotes Media with support from our presenting sponsor TELUS, as well as CN Rail, Bruce Power, and AltaGas.Greetings, you curiouser and curiouser Herle Burly-ites! It occurs to us here at Air Quotes Media, that when the Prime Minister goes to China ... makes an historic trade deal ... and then invokes the term “New World Order” in his statement to the press – Carney said it slowly, dramatically, deliberately – you gather the most expert people you can think of and record a podcast about it, immediately.David Mulroney and Jennifer Welsh are with me today.David was Canada's ambassador to the People's Republic of China from 2009 to 2012. Prior to that he headed Canada's office in Taiwan and served as our Senior Official for Asia Pacific Economic Cooperation. His 2016 book about our relationship with China, Middle Power, Middle Kingdom, was awarded with J.W, Dafoe Prize.Jennifer is the Canada 150 Research Chair in Global Governance and Security at McGill University and the Director of the Max Bell School of Public Policy. She's a Rhodes Scholar, earning a Master and Doctorate in International Relations at Oxford, and co-founded the Oxford Institute for Ethics, Law and Armed Conflict.So today, I want to talk about what Trump, and the U.S. is saying, and doing, and the shifting world order. What might it look like? What are the implications for Canada? Can we influence it in any meaningful way? And the actions Prime Minister Carney has taken to date, the deal with China, and also his work in Europe and the Mid-East.Thank you for joining us on #TheHerleBurly podcast.
