Who thought putting Flock surveillance cameras to monitor traffic coming into the parking lots at the Pentagon was a good idea? We understand why the War Department would want to know who's trying to get close to the headquarters of the United States military, but the Pentagon already has procedures in place for restricting access to its parking lots. Why did it contract out to Flock for AI powered license plate readers? Security experts have point pointed out that Flock's system is not the most secure, with one expert claiming it can be hacked in under 30 seconds. Consider that Israel was able to eliminate Ayatollah Khameini on day one of its war with Iran because Mossad hacked the traffic cameras in Tehran. Now, imagine what a bad actor could do with a database of license plates regularly coming and going from the Pentagon parking lots. We also discussed the spiritual forces at work in the kerfuffle around Ed Sheeran's tour. If you missed it, one of his opening acts, the white rapper Macklemore, was fired for using his time during a concert in Philadelphia three weeks ago to spout pro Palestinian propaganda. Pressure was put on Sheeran to condemn Israel. His weak apology, trying to please both pro and anti-Israel supporters, made everybody unhappy. We live in an age where no one will be allowed to be neutral on the subject of Israel. Sadly, some of the loudest voices condemning Jews for being Jews come from professing Christians. In our view, these will cheer for the Antichrist when he leads the world to war against Israel. And we discuss Ukraine's president Volodomyr Zelenskyy's claim Friday that President Trump has authorized Ukraine to build Patriot missiles.

Join James, Andy, from War with a Mate and Craig, and Gaurav from Echoes of War Podcast as they discuss their epic journey playing the North Africa Campaign board game—a monumental undertaking that began as a simple six-turn practice run but evolved into an intense 22-month campaign simulation. In this in-depth episode of "War with the Mate," our hosts reflect on their experience tackling one of the most complex and historically accurate North Africa board game scenarios ever documented. This is one of the first episodes from Echoes of War, marking an important milestone for the podcast as they explore the intricate warfare of the North African theater during World War II. What makes this playthrough extraordinary is the sheer learning curve involved. The team admits they initially overlooked crucial historical context provided by their guests, which led to significant tactical losses throughout their gameplay. However, these setbacks transformed the experience into an invaluable educational journey about North Africa campaign history and the strategic complexities faced by both Allied and Axis forces. The episode revisits the historical background of the North African campaign, drawing on their comprehensive 12-part series on the subject to provide deeper context. Expect detailed discussion of Operation Compass, Fort Malena, Bardia, and the tactical decisions that shaped their 22-month battle for control of Libya and Egypt. Our guests Craig and Gurv bring expert historical knowledge to the table, explaining how the board game mechanics represent North Africa warfare, including naval logistics from Sicily, armored car reconnaissance tactics, and the critical role of Malta in the Mediterranean theater. This is a must-watch for World War 2 history enthusiasts, wargaming fans, and anyone interested in how complex board games can simulate real historical campaigns. Whether you're interested in the North Africa WW2 battles, military strategy, or just watching friends struggle through one of the most challenging board games ever created, this episode delivers.

Part 7 in the Mr. Steak series, and Part 6 of the Mr. Steak's Competitive Edge series. This one is from June 1977 and is on the topic of "Update," with Mr. Steak's COO and president Jim Shearon, the VP of Operations John Krielaart, and Ruth Cox, the administrative assistant to CEO and COO on the upcoming Mr. Steak Convention near Durango, Colorado. The Mr. Steak across from Disneyland is mentioned in this one at minute 24. There are 256 restaurants at the time of this recording October 1975 for the November poster tape series. Mr. Steak's Founder, Chairman of the Board and CEO James A. Jim Mather, my Grandpa Mather, interviews people in an effort to increase what he called Mr. Steak's Competitive Edge by encouraging people to smile in order to help beautify America. This was in December 1976 for the benefit of Mr. Steak's nationwide staff in 285 restaurants. Grandpa interjects his thoughts along with Scripture. This seems to have been a monthly series called "Mr. Steak's Competitive Edge," each month with a new theme. Many thank to Kerri Marquadt, owner of 7 of the 286 Mr. Steak franchises including the Cheyenne Wyoming location, for the gift to me of these rare tapes of the Mr. Steak franchisor founder and motivational speaker, James A. Mather. Grandpa Mather was raised by a single mother in the Great Depression in El Dorado, Kansas. He went on to serve as a Navy F2F Hellcat fighter pilot during World War 2. He started the company in 1962. He and his first wife Dottie raised 3 kids in Colorado. He died last year in the presence of his second wife Linda peacefully in Camarillo, California at the ripe age of 102 years young. Funeral services were held at Godspeak Calvary Chapel in Newbury Park and performed by Pastor Rob McCoy, whom Jim mentored in the Lord. The still photo is a Mr. Steak mentioned in an advertisement in the LA Times 21 Dec 1978. Enjoy. The Republican Professor is a pro-free-enterprise-system podcast. Therefore, welcome back Grandpa Jim James A. Mather. The Republican Professor is produced and hosted by Dr. Lucas J. Mather, Ph.D.
Dr. Christian B. Milleris the A. C. Reid Professor of Philosophy at Wake Forest University. He was most recently the Director of the Honesty Project. His new book is The Honesty Crisis: Preserving Our Most Treasured Virtue in an Increasingly Dishonest World. Honesty is a character trait that is critical to individual and societal ethics. An honest person does not lie, steal, or deal in self-deception. Often ethical dilemmas arise that pose a philosophical challenge. For example, it is reasonable to protect an innocent person from malicious harm, suffering or death. Assume that an ICE agent is conducting an illegal raid on an innocent migrant or that a Jewish family was pursued by the Nazis in World War 2. It is rational and moral to protect them... Given the fire hydrant of misinformation, disinformation and lies with many public figures, honesty is one of most important values to inculcate.

In 1915, as World War I reshaped global politics and strained international ties, two world's fairs opened in the United States with the bold promise of celebrating cooperation, innovation, and peace. Yet behind the grand pavilions and idealized “avenues of nations,” the war was already altering who could participate, how the fairs presented themselves, and what they ultimately came to represent. The fairs of 1915 - one in San Francisco, the other in San Diego - became unexpected reflections of a world in crisis, revealing the tensions between global aspiration and wartime reality. To learn more, the World War I podcast spoke with researcher Hunter McPherson, whose work offers deeper insight into the 1915 fairs and their wartime context.Have a comment about this episode?

Darrell Castle gives his thoughts on the Iran War and asks the question what has 200 days of war accomplished for the United States. He reminds us that yesterday, September 17th, was the 239th anniversary of the U.S. Constitution. Transcription / Notes TWO HUNDRED DAYS OF WAR Hello, this is Darrell Castle with today's Castle Report. This is Friday the 18th day of September in the year of our Lord 2026. My beat is war once again as the United States of America passes two milestones this week. Yesterday the 17th was Constitution Day and this week the US passed 200 days in its war against Iran. So, our subject is what has been accomplished in those 200 days. Yes, we are 200 days into the war against Iran and just on a brief inventory I will list a few of the things it has accomplished. It seems to me that war has torn the U.S. and much of the world apart in the last few days. Here's an excellent quote from the London Times via Bill Bonner. “The wars in Afghanistan and Iraq cost more than 7000 American lives, hundreds of thousands of civilian ones and trillions of dollars, turning that surplus into a debt of more than $40 trillion. Seeing the world's sole superpower flounder for a decade against roadside bombs and soviet-era rifles wrecked American self-esteem and drained Washington's international authority. But the deeper damage was to Americans' faith in their government and in themselves.” That is about as good a summation of what GWB called the war on terror as I could write myself. This reporter, Gerald Baker, is telling us that America has lost its way and we may never find the way again. The US has now spent more than two decades dealing out death and destruction across the world with very little if any to show for it. Now, we are in an even worse situation thanks to the unprovoked attack against Iran about 200 days ago. That attack has in so many ways torn the world apart. Thanks to the empowerment of Iran which was once a backwater country with its own people, especially its women, on the verge of rebellion because of the regime's harsh treatment, that backwater now controls the world's economy at least the fuel portion of it. Fuel may not be everything in the economic world but everything depends on it. When it comes to fuel the war seems to be going worse than ever and it has been a catastrophe for the world's economy. Iran controls the Strait of Hormuz which it made no effort to control before it was attacked. The Houthis are gaining control of the Red Sea and the chokepoints leading to it. Iraqi militia, undoubtedly armed by Iran have devastated the Saudi oil production and shipment facilities to the point that fuel in Europe is drying up. The Saudis built a pipeline from their oil facilities across to the Red Sea to avoid Iranian attacks on shipping in the Gulf but repeated drone attacks have destroyed the pipeline so the Saudis are unable to ship oil right now. There have been so many Iranian missile attacks on US. bases and all the oil producing nations that oil is becoming critically short worldwide. Here in the US, we have developed a system where we don't stockpile anything as we used to. Instead trucks continually roll to grocery stores and if they miss one day there is no food. Diesel delivers all the stuff we consume and if you've driven anywhere lately you know the highways are full of trucks and they all run on diesel. Since the price of diesel is soaring, over $6 in my area, the price of food and everything else is soaring too. The Iranians do not have the same system. They don't have to take delivery to prevail, they just have to make sure no one else takes delivery. The fuel shortage is growing worse by the day here in America. The emergency petroleum reserve is at a critically low point and even Donald Trump is alarmed so apparently that is why he made the deal with Venezuela for their oil. Will it be too little too late, time will tell I guess. It seems that petroleum is not the only thing in short supply. The Iranians are very clever people and they seem to have figured out that they can run us short of missiles as well as petroleum. The THAAD system, Terminal High Altitude Area Defense System is one of the nation's most expensive defensive systems costing about $13 million per missile. Consider that it is tasked with shooting down missiles supplied to Iran by China probably in exchange for oil which they have in abundance. If a swarm of missiles is fired at Israel THAAD will be highly effective against one, two, perhaps ten but at what cost. The system is not as effective against the hypersonic missiles the Iranians are currently using so perhaps tens of millions expended for each attack all back to US taxpayers. Military records show that 134 THAADs were fired in June of 2025 well before the current war even started. Now, apparently the supply is critically short and the maximum production capacity is about 8 missiles per month. It's easy to see the problem. Even if THAAD is completely effective US production capacity cannot keep up. If that were all it would be plenty but as usual it gets worse. According to anonymous, but trusted federal officials as reported by Tucker Carlson, the US has to replenish not only its own weapons expended but Israel's too. Reportedly the Trump administration plans to send a total of 40,000 Mark 84 and BLU-117 bombs to the Israeli government in the coming months. The records reveal that in World War ll all the allied nations combined from 1939 until 1945 dropped 3.4 million tons of bombs on their Axis enemies. The US didn't even enter the war until late 1941. The bombs I just mentioned being provided to Israel, 40,000 of them each contain 2000 pounds of explosive force or one ton. That means 40,000 tons if the transfer is approved. Some members of congress are starting to take notice however because Thomas Massie has introduced articles of impeachment against Secretary of War, Pete Hegseth, and he promised to push it to a vote as one of his last acts before leaving office in November. Yes, Massie has represented Kentucky's 4th district since 2012 but he was primaried out of congress this year and will be leaving in November. He has always been critical of the Iran war and of the US relationship with Israel and I suppose that was just too much for the proponents of the war to bear. Coincidentally, yesterday, the 17th was Constitution Day which celebrates the 239th anniversary of the document that moved America from the status of a colony ruled by Britain to an independent, self-governing republic. Here are a few words from Massie's articles of impeachment. “It is appropriate on this day, the 239th anniversary of our Constitution, that Members of the House of Representatives can stand and vote to validate their constitutional oath and to impress upon the self-proclaimed Secretary of War that his days of waging preemptive, aggressive war are over. The current Secretary's practice of extrajudicial killings, of playing policeman, prosecutor, judge, jury and executioner will be at an end, if the House votes to impeach. Every American should understand the gravity of the conduct of Secretary Hegseth: Unilateral initiation and continuation of war, the taking of life without due process, the abandonment of protections for civilians, the suppression of free speech, the separation of powers and the constitutional authority of Congress” The articles also include charges which I won't quote but I will attempt to summarize as I am able. The United States conducted a preemptive attack on Iran at the request of Benjamin Netanyahu. Iran's leader Ayatollah Ali Hosseini Khamenei and members of his family were killed. US and Israeli planes attacked a clearly marked school and killed at least 168 mostly schoolgirls. The school was attacked in three separate raids. He followed illegal orders and continued to accelerate the attacks on Iran. Oil shipments have been cut off and gas prices are soaring. He ordered the deaths of individuals traveling by boat in the Caribbean, alleging they were drug smugglers, arrogating to himself a God-like power over life and death. These are very serious charges and if proven justify impeachment but do they have to be proven. They don't have to be proven to advance the process from the initial introduction to a full house vote but at some point if they are advanced they will have to be discussed and voted on. Just the fact that Articles of Impeachment have been introduced proclaims to the world that at least one member of congress thinks the war and the way US war policy is being conducted is so objectionable it deserves impeachment. One result of this is that victory or a favorable conclusion to the war is now impossible. It is an act that any enemy would very much like to see because it says they are so divided there is no consensus and therefore they can't prevail. Finally, folks, these are some of the most embarrassing and frustrating moments that America has had to face in my lifetime. This war has revealed Israeli motives but what it has revealed about the US, its leadership makes no sense to me but I guess even the world's only super power can get into a mess it can't seem to get out of. At least that's the way I see it, Until next time folks, This is Darrell Castle, Thanks for listening.
Playwright and critic Bonnie Greer was a frequent panellist on programmes such as Newsnight and Question Time where she took part in one of its most contentious episodes. Kirsty spoke to Judith Antell who was Bonnie's agent and friend for over 20 years. They discuss how Bonnie's father being stationed in the UK during World War 2 shaped her view on the country; the surprising backlash Bonnie faced after appearing on a 2009 edition of Question Time with the then leader of the British National Party, they also discuss the project Bonnie was most proud of in her later career. Jeremy Thomas was a film producer whose 80 plus films ranged from the Oscar Award-winning The Last Emperor to the hugely controversial 'Crash'. He also produced wartime drama Merry Christmas, Mr. Lawrence, the gangster thriller Sexy Beast and the adaptation of William S. Burroughs' Naked Lunch. Mark Cousins wrote and directed “The Storms of Jeremy Thomas” which documented his eclectic career. He tells Kirsty how through his films Jeremy "wanted to dig deeper into human life, his films are about the biggest questions". (Please note: In the introduction to this item we incorrectly stated that Mark was the producer of 'The Storms of Jeremy Thomas'. Mark was the writer and director.) Wendell Berry, the Kentucky farmer and environmental campaigner who warned for many years of the excesses of industrial society. As a writer, he published hundreds of essays, poems and more than forty books. Wendell argued for most of his life that small-scale agriculture was essential to the preservation of the land and culture. Writer Paul Kingsnorth has been reading Wendell's work since the 90s and recently worked with him to compile a series of his essays into a book. He discusses Wendell's philosophy to farming, the environment, the wider community and how they are all intrinsically linked together. Wendell famously never owned a computer and only wrote with a pencil, which presented challenges, and unexpected joys, for Paul when editing the book. Frances Stonor Saunders was a historian who exposed secret CIA attempts to manipulate public opinion through popular culture during the cold war. Her 1999 book 'Who Paid the Piper' was hugely successful and groundbreaking in its work. It was said that it "single-handedly established a new branch of sub-history" and is to be republished in 2026. Frances' brother Alexander Stonor Saunders explains how she was able to uncover the range of CIA activities, they included the production of an animated version of George Orwell's Animal Farm.Presenter: Kirsty Lang Producer: Ed Prendeville Assistant Producer: Ribika Moktan Researcher: Jesse EdwardsARCHIVE: Conversation Piece, BBC Radio 4, 01/12/1988; Start the Week, BBC Radio 4, 28/06/1999; The Food Programme, BBC Radio 4, 25/08/2002; Fast Food Nation, BBC Film Network, 03/05/2007; Question Time, BBC One, 22/10/2009; Front Row, BBC Radio 4, 09/12/2010; Belief, BBC Radio 4, 31/12/2010; GMT, BBC News / World News, 21/11/2011; The Film Programme, BBC Radio 4, 16/10/2014; My Food Hero: Ella McSweeney Meets Wendell Berry, BBC Radio 4, 24/08/2015; Front Row, BBC Radio 4, 29/07/2024; Era of Reclamation (Ep. 1: In Search of Black History), British Museum

James Cameron-Wilson thought the belated #1 Practical Magic 2 with Nicole Kidman and Sandra Bullock akin to a mediocre syrupy episode of the old TV show Bewitched. But he was bewitched by #3 Pressure, based on David Haig's true-life play. Andrew Scott is the Scottish weatherman advising Brendan Fraser's Eisenhower on the feasibility of landing Allied forces in France. Playing out like a courtroom thriller, James feels this brilliant film is one of the greatest portrayals of a World War 2 figure. He is full of admiration for the supernatural thriller Obsession, out on Blu-Ray. It is beautifully made and acted, with every frame used for maximum effect. The film is deeply unsettling but it works wonderfully. He is also a fan of Apple TV's buddy comedy Mayday. Set in 1987, Ryan Reynolds is an American pilot who crashes in Russia near the home of hermit Kenneth Branagh, who is the funniest he has been in ages. Learn more about your ad choices.

Do you sometimes feel your job is just too much for one person to handle?Then let me introduce you to Franklin Roosevelt.“FDR” was the 32nd president of the United States. By a quirk of history, he found himself leading the free world during a crippling economic meltdown…and a world war! His story is important, as we explore faith in God and country this week.No one understood more than Roosevelt the sacrifice needed to defeat evil on the battlefield. He said, “Those who have long enjoyed such privileges as we enjoy forget, in time, that men have died to win them.”He had to send young men and women into harm's way, all over the world.John 15:13 says, “Greater love has no one than this: to lay down one's life for one's friends."More than 400,000 Americans died in World War 2. From the South Pacific to Europe, soldiers looked after each other, and in many cases died so that others could live.We should never forget that.Let's pray. Lord, we thank you for those who protect us. We will never forget them. In Jesus' name, amen. Change your shirt, and you can change the world!

Proletarian TV | 13 September 2026 Joti Brar, Chair of the CPGB-ML speaks at the founding conference of the British Chapter of the Antifascist International, on the session focusing on Imperialism and War. Joti draws attention to the heightened war drive of the imperialists that is pushing us towards World War 3. This is not a policy choice - it is a result of the economic crisis of overproduction of global finance capitalism. This is a systemic crisis from which the ruling capitalist class has no way out - and no answer but war, death and destruction. They are prepared to sacrifice hundreds of millions of workers to keep their grip of financial slavery upon the world. They are the greatest threat to humanity that we face. That is why there is “no reverse gear” on the part of the British and American NATO warmongers, whether in Latin America, Venezuela and Cuba, their support of fascism in Ukraine and the drive toward deepening the conflict with Russia, in the Western, Central and Eat African states, in Congo and Sudan, in Palestine and the Middle East, or in Taiwan and Korea and their drive toward conflict with China. We are right to support the Axis of resistance. We are right to call to “Globalise the Intifada” against Zionism, Banderite Fascism, neoliberal stooge regimes and Imperialism. But we must recognise that what is lacking most is the fight on the home front. There Labour Party, a party of imperialism, has tired the working class in servitude and polices the “official” anti war movement, the “official” palestine solidarity movement and the “official” anti austerity movement and trade union movements. In this way workers are kept powerless and imperialism is left free to continue perpetrating its wars and genocides across the globe - to the detriment of British workers also, who are being prepared to be the foot soldiers of our ruling class enemies, to preserve and entrench our own wage-slavery. We must build the Antifascist International to step into the breach: to teach the British Working class once more to appreciate and use its power in its own interests and those of the workers of all countries.

We've got three movies as we often do. What we don't usually have is a movie that has three titles for a joint review. So without a lot of ado we're going to talk about The Scoundrel's Wife[2002](Also The Home Front or The Smuggler's Wife). You should be able to find it to watch on the Tube. The director had a 4K restoration done and made available because it's basically unwatchable otherwise. It's a movie set in World War 2. It starts just before the attack on Pearl Harbor. It's set in Louisiana where our protagonist, Camille, is a single mother. She has a daughter and son and her husband … Continue reading "Popcorn Pulse 271: Sex Scoundrel"
Near the turn of the 20th century, the United States' economy is an international powerhouse, but its military is, at best, a third-rate force. One man aims to leverage that small force to build an empire: Theodore Roosevelt. First as Assistant Secretary of the Navy and then as President, Roosevelt will reform the navy and conquer the remnants of the old Spanish Empire. Beyond that, Roosevelt will transform the nation itself by battling government corruption, supporting the nascent labor movement, and building the Panama Canal. At the end of his presidency, the world's great powers will be forced to recognize the United States as a peer – one that will play an outsized role in the World War era.

Retired US Army Col Jeff McCausland, a longtime military and national security analyst, joins Megan Lynch in-studio for an extended interview. He looks at the US/Iran war, which he says is, 'escalating vertically & horizontally.' He points out that the Russia/Ukraine war, which has now lasted longer than the Soviet Union's fight with Nazi Germany in World War 2, pointing out at the start, tanks were a big deal, and now drones. Col McCausland also previews the visit of China's president and oil price issues.
For our second episode in this series, we move into the 1930s. Beyond Universal's horror boom—and, honestly, the emergence of the horror genre as we know it—there was a lot going on during this decade. With the Great Depression, the introduction of the Hays Code, and another World War on the horizon, audiences continued to escape into the world of monsters. But while these films are considered "old classics" today, they still contain some pretty dark subject matter. So join us as we explore this decade, discussing some of the major events and titles that shaped the horror genre almost 100 years ago! Titles mentioned in this episode: Black Cat (1934), Bride of Frankenstein (1935), Curse of Frankenstein (1957), Dark Eyes of London (1939), Dracula (1931), Dracula's Daughter (1936), Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde (1931), Dr. X (1932), The Ghoul (1933), Ghost Cast and the Mysterious Shamisen (1938), Gone with the Wind (1939), Frankenstein (1931), Freaks (1932), The Hound of the Baskervilles (1959), Island of Lost Souls (1932), The Jazz Singer (1927), King Kong (1933), London After Midnight (1927), La Llorna (1933), M (1931), Mad Love (1935), Mark of the Vampire (1935), The Mummy (1932), Murders in the Rue Morgue (1932), Murders in the Zoo (1933), Mystery of the Wax Museum (1933), Old Dark House (1932), Son of Frankenstein (1939), Son of Kong (1933), Song at Midnight (1937), The Unholy Three (1930), The Vampire Bat (1933), Vampyr (1932), Werewolf of London (1935), White Zombie (1932), The Wizard of Oz (1939)
A bewildered human race is like a man lost in a forest asking, “Father, are you there?” In 1945, at the end of World War 2, Helmut Thielicke, a brilliant theologian, preaching through the Lord's Prayer to what was left of his congregation in the ruins of his church in Stuttgart said, “Everything will be all right so long as we hear His good voice calling to us above the howling of the wolves, above the sound of branches snapping, above the ominous noises around us. God is always there.”A Christian worldview believes in the Fatherhood of God. To support this ministry financially, visit: https://www.oneplace.com/donate/1141/29?v=20251111
1977 was apparently a big year for revenge at the cinema! We look at two films from that year that don't pull any punches in serving up some icy-cold vengeance! We start off with "The Farmer", the only directorial effort from David Berlatsky, who primarily worked as an editor. A soldier, played by Gary Conway returns home from World War 2 to find his family farm in disrepair and about to be foreclosed upon. After getting involved with the local criminal underworld as a way to pay off his debts, he ends up on a personal path of revenge that sees many people be assaulted and die. We follow that with the legendary "Rolling Thunder" from director John Flynn and co-written by none-other than Paul Schrader! This one also sees a soldier returning home from war, but this time it's William Devane coming home from Vietnam where had been a prisoner of war for years. His wife has moved on and found a new man, his son doesn't even remember him, and he is targeted by a local gang that attacks him and his family in a shockingly violent scene. This sets him on a violent path and leaves many many bodies in his wake. These are both starkly told stories with stoic leading men with almost nothing joyful in either. If you enjoy these types of stories, these are two excellent choices!Send us your thoughts on the show and recommendations for future episodes to flickersfrom@yahoo.com or flickersfrom@gmail.com.

Bleach TYBW Episode 48 (Part 4 Episode 8), “THE END TWO WORLD,” finally delivers Aizen vs Yhwach, but was their long-awaited battle rushed? On this episode of Bleach Boys, we break down Sosuke Aizen's return, his legendary “Welcome to my Soul Society” entrance, and how Kyoka Suigetsu fooled Yhwach's Almighty long enough for Ichigo Kurosaki to strike.
As the far-right Alternative for Deutschland party wins 44 percent of the vote in Saxony-Anholt, Audrey talks to Jenny Witt- a journalist based in Hamburg- about what the result means for wider Germany. They also discuss what the Churches in Saxony Anhalt have been doing to help asylum seekers, and how that has brought them into direct confrontation with the AFD.Leadership is something that every organisation and company try to get right. But how different would things be if we all practiced Servant Leadership. We discuss the strengths and limitations with political commentator Alex Kane, theologian Peter McDowell and Professor of inclusive leadership at Birmingham Business School Joanne Murphy.Lord Peter Ricketts was the British government's chief civil servant in the foreign office and was the UK's first national security adviser. He talks to Audrey about his book Peace Makers: Shaping the Modern World, outlining the role played by Diplomats in World War 2 and what we can learn from that in an increasingly unstable world.
This is a two-part episode that focuses on very different topics with similar names. The original Operation Choke Point was launched by Obama as a way to shakedown industries that he thought he could manipulate. Biden revised the program in order to focus specifically on cryptocurrency-related businesses, exchanges, and banks working with industry leaders. The second part of the show features the maritime choke points worldwide that play a major role in the creeping spectre of World War 3. We focus on the Suez Canal, the Strait of Hurmuz, the Panama Canal, and the Strait of Malacca in southeast Asia. Conflict in the Middle East will cause multiple choke points to shut down, forcing the price of a barrel of oil to astronomical levels in a matter of weeks, not years.---Charlie's New Book:The Octopus Of Population Control - Paperback, Kindle, & AudiobookMacroaggressionswww.Macroaggressions.io | Merch Store | Link TreeVideo Channels: Rumble | YouTube | BrighteonActivist Post: Newsletter Sign UpSupport Our SponsorsReplace Your Mortgage: www.WipeOutYourMortgageNow.comGround Luxe Grounding MatsC60 Power | Promo Code: MACROChemical Free Body | Promo Code: MACROWise Wolf Gold & SilverLegalShield: www.DontGetPushedAround.comEMP Shield | Promo Code: MACROChristian Yordanov's Health ProgramAbove PhoneVan ManThe Dollar VigilanteAugason Farms

This week we talk about money policies, yield curves, and government bonds.We also discuss the Fed, the Treasury Department, and a WWII accord between them.Recommended Book: Paved Paradise by Henry GrabarTranscriptIn April of 1942, a few months after the United States entered World War 2, the US Treasury Department asked the Federal Reserve to help it borrow a truly staggering amount of money, and as cheaply as possible. The Fed agreed, committing itself to holding short-term Treasury bill rates at three-eighths of 1%, while also capping the yield on long-term government bonds at 2.5%.This was a type of yield curve control. Rather than allowing the market to decide how much interest the government would pay, the Fed decided that price and promised to enforce it.That helped finance the war, because the Treasury knew its borrowing costs wouldn't spiral out of control at a moment when it needed to spend unprecedented sums on ships, planes, weapons, soldiers, and all the other machinery of an ongoing global conflict.The downside was that the Fed lost control of an important monetary policy lever.Bond prices and yields move in opposite directions, so keeping yields below a certain level meant the Fed had to stand ready to buy bonds whenever their prices dropped. It couldn't decide in advance how many it would buy, or how much money it would create in the process. The market would thus forth decide that, instead.Consequently, the Fed became, in some ways, an extension of the Treasury's debt-management operation, its inflation-related responsibilities made secondary to the government's need for cheap financing.That arrangement persisted after the war ended, despite the return of inflation, and President Harry Truman's administration pushed to maintain it during the Korean War, as well.Fed officials resisted, though, with inflation running at more than 8%, and after a very public, very contentious standoff, on March 4, 1951, the Treasury and the Fed announced that they had reached what became known as the Treasury-Fed Accord.That agreement did not make the Fed independent all at once, but it established the principle underlying the modern relationship between these institutions: the Treasury manages government borrowing, while the Fed sets monetary policy based on inflation and employment, not on how much that policy costs the government.The market, in other words, would once again be allowed to decide the price of long-term US debt.What I'd like to talk about today is what happens when that price goes up, what's pushing long-term US borrowing costs toward levels we haven't seen in decades, and why two people appointed by the same president are pulling in opposite directions on this issue.—The Federal Reserve's primary interest-rate lever is the federal funds rate, which is the overnight rate banks charge each other to borrow money. The Fed currently targets a range of 3.5 to 3.75 percent for that rate, and while it has other tools, this is the number people are usually talking about when they say the Fed raised, cut, or held rates.The Fed does not directly set the yield on 10- or 30-year Treasuries, though.Those securities are sold at auction and then traded in a huge secondary market, and their yields reflect a combination of what investors expect inflation to look like, where they think short-term rates will go over the life of the bond, and what's called the term premium.The term premium is basically extra compensation for uncertainty. If you lock up your money for 30 years instead of rolling over short-term debt, you accept the risk that inflation, growth, government policy, and other variables will change in ways that make your bond less valuable over that thirty year period. The more uncertain the future seems, the more compensation you're likely to demand.And again, when demand for a bond falls, its price falls and its yield rises. When we say yields are rising, that means borrowers have to offer investors, the people and institutions giving them the money they want to borrow, more money, more interest, to convince them to buy those bonds.That doesn't only affect the government. The 10-year Treasury serves as something like a reference rate for the entire economy, influencing mortgages, business loans, and the value of long-lived assets.As of September 3 of 2026, the average US 30-year fixed mortgage rate was 6.71%, up from 6.5% a year earlier. That increase is the result of yield increases in the bond market.Long-term Treasury yields have been climbing for much of 2026, and that climb accelerated over the summer.The 30-year yield reached about 5.31 percent on August 17, its highest level since 2007. A few days earlier, the Treasury sold 30-year bonds at a yield of 5.216%, the highest borrowing cost at one of those auctions since 2001.The 10-year yield briefly hit about 4.81% this past week, its highest level since early 2025, and ended Friday at about 4.78%. The two-year yield, which tends to track expectations about contemporary Fed policy more closely, ended at about 4.37%.There isn't one clean cut reason for these yield bumps. Instead, there are a bunch of forces pushing in roughly the same direction.The first is government borrowing. The Congressional Budget Office now expects a roughly 2.1 trillion dollar federal deficit this fiscal year, which is 200 billion dollars more than it projected in February. Covering that gap means issuing more debt, and more supply generally means the Treasury has to offer a better return to attract enough buyers.The second is competition from corporations, especially technology companies borrowing to build AI infrastructure and data centers.The Dallas Fed estimates that AI-related investment-grade bond issuance—these companies borrowing money, in the form of bonds, to help build more data centers and other AI-enabling stuff—could total around $300 billion this year, creating long-duration debt equivalent to about an eighth of what the Treasury is expected to issue. Some of the companies selling this debt have extremely strong balance sheets and high credit ratings, so investors who want safe-ish, long-term bonds suddenly have a lot more options, and the US government has to compete with that for a finite pool of investor resources.Third, oil prices have surged following renewed strikes and attacks around the Strait of Hormuz, with US benchmark prices recently climbing above $90 a barrel. More expensive energy can goose inflation across the economy, which makes locking in a fixed return for 10 or 30 years less appealing, because those yields might not keep up with the practical devaluation of the dollar.Fourth, that aforementioned term premium has risen as investors ask to be paid more for uncertainty related to inflation, deficits, geopolitics, and future Treasury issuance.And fifth, the pool of buyers is changing. Foreign investors still own trillions of dollars in Treasuries, but private foreign demand for notes and bonds fell sharply in June, even as corporate bonds attracted more of that finite sum of money.A big shift we seem to be seeing here is that some investors seem to be judging Treasuries less as a bet on the next Fed meeting, and more as a long-term bet on whether the US political system can manage its finances. And that shift is showing up at an awkward moment for the two institutions involved in the 1951 Accord.Kevin Warsh, who became Fed chair in May, used his August 28 speech at Jackson Hole to say that although inflation expectations remain anchored, the Fed still has work to do if underlying inflation is not moving toward its target quickly enough.Markets read that as a warning that a rate hike could be coming, and the unexpectedly strong August jobs report reinforced that interpretation: employers added 162,000 jobs, far more than economists anticipated, while estimates for June and July were revised upward.The Treasury Department, meanwhile, is moving in the opposite direction.On August 19, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent announced that the government would at least double the size of its long-term bond buybacks, from a maximum of 2 billion dollars to at least 4 billion dollars per operation, beginning September 9 and continuing through November 4.The stated purpose is to improve liquidity, buying older, less frequently traded 10- to 30-year securities. But buying long-term bonds also reduces the supply available to investors, boosting prices and putting downward pressure on yields, which is why Bessent has referred to the approach as a “Treasury twist.”The scale is small in the context of a $40 trillion national debt, and analysts have described it as more signal than substance. It is nonetheless a striking signal: one Trump appointee is telling markets that higher short-term rates may be necessary to control inflation, while another is using the Treasury's balance sheet to push long-term rates in the other direction.These jobs, which again, were separated in 1951, are working against each other. And this matters, first, because long-term government debt is the foundation upon which a lot of other prices are built.When a 30-year Treasury yields more than 5%, companies refinancing debt have to pay more, commercial real estate becomes harder to finance, mortgages become more expensive, and investors have less reason to pay extremely high prices for stocks based on profits those companies might earn many years from now.It also matters because interest on the federal debt has become one of the government's largest expenses. Gross interest expense reached about $1.17 trillion during the first ten months of fiscal 2026, up about 15% from the same period last year. The somewhat narrower CBO measure of net interest reached $963 billion over that span, roughly level with Medicare spending and greater than defense spending.This creates a potentially self-reinforcing loop: higher yields increase the cost of servicing the debt, higher interest costs expand the deficit, larger deficits require more borrowing, and more borrowing can put further upward pressure on yields.Economists use the term fiscal dominance to describe the point at which government financing needs start to constrain monetary policy, pushing the central bank to keep rates lower than it otherwise would, or to buy government debt, even if doing so undermines its effort to control inflation.The US is not necessarily at that point, but this is exactly the kind of pressure the 1951 Accord was meant to prevent.As with everything government money-related, there's also a global dimension to this shift.For decades, Japanese banks, insurers, pension funds, and other institutions bought foreign bonds in part because yields at home were so low. On September 1, though, Japan's 10-year government bond yield touched 3% for the first time since 1996.Japan's government has more debt relative to the size of its economy than any other wealthy country, and it assumed a 3% long-term rate when calculating debt-service costs for its current budget. Rising above that level would strain its finances, but those higher yields also give Japanese investors more reason to keep their money at home.That doesn't mean Japanese institutions will dump all their Treasuries. Currency-hedging costs and the specific needs of different investors complicate that calculation. But when a major source of relatively steady demand becomes more price-sensitive, the marginal buyer of US debt has to be paid more to invest.Finally, the Treasury market itself has become somewhat more fragile.The amount of debt in circulation has grown far faster than the balance sheets of the dealers that traditionally absorb buying and selling. Hedge funds have filled some of that gap using highly leveraged strategies, including something called the cash-futures basis trade.Fed researchers estimate that these positions reached about $830 billion by September 2025, representing 35% of hedge funds' long Treasury exposure. These trades can provide useful liquidity when markets are calm, but because they rely on enormous amounts of borrowed money to capture tiny price differences, they can also unwind pretty quickly when volatility spikes.That sort of unwind contributed to the Treasury-market seizure in March of 2020, and a different leveraged hedge-fund strategy added to turbulence in April of 2025.The assets treated as the world's safest and most liquid can still become difficult to sell when everyone needs cash at the same time, in other words.The next few weeks should partially clarify what's actually driving this unusual market.The expanded Treasury buybacks begin the day after this episode goes live, September 9. Producer-price inflation data arrives on September 10, consumer-price data on September 11, and the Fed meets on September 15 and 16. The Bank of Japan follows on September 17 and 18, when it may increase its policy rate from 1% to around 1.25%.If the Fed hikes and long-term yields fall, that could indicate investors view the move as credible inflation-fighting: short-term borrowing becomes more expensive, but the term premium shrinks because the distant future seems less inflationary.If the Fed holds after a soft inflation report and short-term yields fall while the 30-year barely moves, that would suggest the long end is being driven by deficits, debt supply, oil prices, corporate competition, and global demand more than Fed policy.And if the buybacks begin but long-term yields continue to climb, that would demonstrate the limits of debt-management policy in a market this large. The Treasury could respond by issuing more short-term and less long-term debt, reducing immediate borrowing costs, though that would also mean refinancing more frequently and taking on the risk that rates remain high.It could also draw down some of the around $950 billion in its account at the Fed to fund larger buybacks, but that cash also serves as a buffer against the debt ceiling, which the government is currently expected to reach sometime in 2027. Spending the buffer now would mean rebuilding it later, and rebuilding it would require issuing even more debt.Back in 1951, the Treasury and the Fed reached an agreement that the central bank should not be required to make government borrowing cheap, and that the price of long-term debt should be allowed to reflect what the market believed that debt was worth.Right now, the market is rendering its verdict, and that verdict is that lending the United States money for 30 years has become substantially more expensive. Now we wait to see what Washington decides to do about it.Show Noteshttps://www.federalreservehistory.org/essays/treasury-fed-accordhttps://www.brookings.edu/articles/what-is-the-treasury-fed-accord-of-1951-and-why-is-it-important/https://www.federalreserve.gov/data/three-factor-nominal-term-structure-model.htmhttps://www.freddiemac.com/pmmshttps://www.cbo.gov/publication/61983https://fiscaldata.treasury.gov/datasets/interest-expense-on-the-public-debt-outstanding/interest-expense-on-the-public-debt-outstandinghttps://fiscaldata.treasury.gov/datasets/debt-to-the-penny/debt-to-the-pennyhttps://www.dallasfed.org/research/economics/2026/0210-searls-aifinancinghttps://home.treasury.gov/news/press-releases/sb0606https://home.treasury.gov/news/press-releases/sb0607https://www.federalreserve.gov/newsevents/speech/warsh20260828a.htmhttps://www.bls.gov/news.release/empsit.htmhttps://apnews.com/article/1af16359af43eb8abc66445465f633c8https://apnews.com/article/775d7cf741349c7c8e689c0beb57f074https://apnews.com/article/a27a8d3651ff810b25c610d3e1b6259dhttps://www.federalreserve.gov/econres/notes/feds-notes/decomposing-hedge-funds-u-s-treasury-exposures-20260622.htmlhttps://www.imf.org/en/publications/fandd/issues/2026/03/safeguarding-the-treasury-market-jeremy-steinhttps://www.investing.com/news/economy-news/japans-benchmark-bond-yield-rises-to-3-for-first-time-in-30-years-4883532https://www.boj.or.jp/en/mopo/mpmsche_minu/index.htmhttps://bipartisanpolicy.org/article/when-will-we-reach-the-debt-limit-again/https://home.treasury.gov/policy-issues/financing-the-government/quarterly-refunding/most-recent-quarterly-refunding-documents/https://www.federalreserve.gov/monetarypolicy/fomccalendars.htmhttps://www.bls.gov/schedule/2026/09_sched.htmhttps://www.axios.com/newsletters/axios-markets-a975877a-ddce-4ea0-a735-4b460d37af90.htmlhttps://www.ft.com/content/c96c25c1-b27c-4c08-a2ba-21821b39dd78https://www.axios.com/2026/08/19/rates-treasury-borrowing-bessent This is a public episode.

Part 5 in the Mr. Steak series, and Part 4 of the Mr. Steak's Competitive Edge series. This one is from May 1978 and is on the topic of "The Law" by Frederic Bastiat. This was one of Grandpa Mather's favorite books and one that I saw him handout on many an occasion to total strangers. The reading is done by Robert Hite with interjections by Grandpa for Scriptural commentary and discussion. This was probably recorded in April 1978 for the May 1978 Poster Tape discussion program that went out to the entire nationwide chain's associates, managers, and staff. Mr. Steak's Founder, Chairman of the Board and CEO James A. Jim Mather, my Grandpa Mather, interviews people in an effort to increase what he called Mr. Steak's Competitive Edge by encouraging people to smile in order to help beautify America. This was in December 1976 for the benefit of Mr. Steak's nationwide staff in 285 restaurants. Grandpa interjects his thoughts along with Scripture. This seems to have been a monthly series called "Mr. Steak's Competitive Edge," each month with a new theme. Many thank to Kerri Marquadt, owner of 7 of the 286 Mr. Steak franchises including the Cheyenne Wyoming location, for the gift to me of these rare tapes of the Mr. Steak franchisor founder and motivational speaker, James A. Mather. Grandpa Mather was raised by a single mother in the Great Depression in El Dorado, Kansas. He went on to serve as a Navy F2F Hellcat fighter pilot during World War 2. He started the company in 1962. He and his first wife Dottie raised 3 kids in Colorado. He died last year in the presence of his second wife Linda peacefully in Camarillo, California at the ripe age of 102 years young. Funeral services were held at Godspeak Calvary Chapel in Newbury Park and performed by Pastor Rob McCoy, whom Jim mentored in the Lord. The still photo is one of my copies of The Law by Frederic Bastiat given to my father by my Grandpa Jim Mather probably while I was in high school. It has markings and marginal notes in pencil in my father's handwriting. It was passed down from him to me when I was in the U.S.Navy after high school, although I believe I read this for the first time in high school at Chatfield I'm-so-high-screwel (as Rush Limbaugh used to call them), part of the Jefferson County Public School System in a little town called Littleton, Colorado, where I grew up. Enjoy. The Republican Professor is a pro-free-enterprise-system podcast. Therefore, welcome back Grandpa Jim James A. Mather. The Republican Professor is produced and hosted by Dr. Lucas J.

The recent declassification of 80,000 JFK files shows Israeli involvement in the murder of an American president, a full three decades after David Icke laid out the entire plan in And the Truth Shall Set You Free (1995). Trump's technocratic team of transhumanists are marching humanity into a very dark future controlled by artificial intelligence, a sort of Brave New World Economic Forum. What is the Greater Israel Project, why is the IDF wearing patches on their uniforms, and what does that mean for the neighboring countries?

George S. Patton is considered one of America’s greatest generals for his blitzes across Europe in World War 2. He is celebrated for breaking out of Normandy because his Third Army push out of their holdings along the coast, unleashing a lightning-fast armored blitz across northern France that routed retreating German forces and liberated Paris months ahead of schedule. And following the Third Army’s dramatic relief of Bastogne during the Battle of the Bulge, the American press and public widely lionized Patton as a national hero who spearheaded the drive into Germany. When he returned stateside in June 1945, he received massive ticker-tape parades and hero’s welcomes in Boston, Los Angeles, and Denver, drawing crowds of hundreds of thousands. Officially, the military affirmed his heroism by awarding him two Distinguished Service Crosses—the nation’s second-highest valor award, explicitly citing his "extraordinary heroism" under enemy fire in both world wars. He was immortalized in the George C. Scott movie ‘Patton’, and has persistently been named in polls as the greatest American military commander of all time. But that’s not how some of his fellow generals saw it. In 1947, Omar Bradley, who had commanded all American ground forces in Europe, wrote a single sentence that should have ended the most persistent myth of the war: "Many people give Patton and his Third Army credit for the breakout from Normandy. He had nothing to do with its planning or execution." Patton arrived after the hole had been punched and drove through open country against almost no opposition. First Army veterans had a phrase for it: "He did not break out. He walked out." Today's guest is James Ellman, author of Patton Reconsidered: General George S. Patton Jr. as a Wartime Commander. We look at the mythology of Patton and see there’s an argument to be made his image was wildly inflated as part of a media campaign, and he had serious shortcomings as a strategist. We discuss how the single most important factor in Patton's career was a friendship with a next-door neighbor named Eisenhower who saved him from dismissal at least five times, how Patton's men posed as First Army soldiers to steal fuel convoys in a scheme that almost certainly got other Americans killed, and why four other American army commanders achieved comparable victories without any of the scandals and are completely forgotten today. Ellman argues that calling Patton a military genius does a disservice to every soldier who served under him and every general who performed as well or better without the drama, and that the traits the Patton legend celebrates, recklessness, insubordination, contempt for logistics, and mistreatment of troops, are exactly the ones the modern US military should be discouraging, not enshrining.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Jane Rogoyska, author of Hotel Exile: Paris in the Shadow of War, Part Two: Rogoyska details how German anti-fascists and French Jews fled Paris for Marseilles and Spain in 1941. While Heinrich Mann escaped successfully, philosopher Walter Benjamin tragically committed suicide at the Spanish border. Rogoyska notes that Samuel Beckettjoined the resistance after Paul Léon's arrest. The Abwehr, aided by the treacherous priest Robert Alesch, infiltrated resistance networks, but was sidelined as the Gestapo's brutality worsened. Post-war, the Lutetia hotel became a repatriation center processing concentration camp survivors. Beckett survived and wrote literary masterpieces, while Alesch was executed. (6)
