Podcasts about The Wall Street Journal

Chris Cuomo sits down with two of the most important voices in UAP transparency: George Knapp (Journalist, KLAS-TV, and Weekend Host, Coast to Coast AM—the investigative journalist who exposed Area 51) and Jeremy Corbell (Investigative Filmmaker and Podcast Co-Host, "Weaponized"). Together, they dissect the government's decades-long campaign of lies and disinformation about unidentified aerial phenomena, including recent admissions that officials have deliberately spread propaganda to confuse the public and military personnel. The conversation reveals how a small group within the Department of Defense, intelligence agencies, and defense contractors continues to guard these secrets, while recent "debunking" efforts in the Wall Street Journal represent a new form of conspiracy—claiming UFOs aren't real at all. Knapp and Corbell explain why transparency will only come through journalism and whistleblowers, not government disclosure, and why the American public deserves answers about technology that could reshape our understanding of physics and national security.

On this episode of The Jon Gordon Podcast, I sit down with Rafi Kohan, author, cultural observer, and the mind behind Trash Talk: The Only Book About Destroying Your Rivals That Isn't Total Garbage.   What started as a casual Zoom between new friends quickly turned into a lively deep dive into the world of competitive banter, all captured here in real time. Together, Rafi and I explore the fascinating, untold science and history of trash talk. He breaks down why trash talk is more than just gamesmanship on the field, it's a fundamental part of human behavior, threaded through ancient stories from the Bible to the Homeric poems, and alive in everything from politics to playgrounds. We get into how trash talk manipulates attention, anxiety, motivation, and even performance, and why some of the world's greatest athletes and public figures use it to their advantage.   Rafi shares wild stories, including some next-level antics from a soccer goalie who turned mental distraction into an art form, reveals why even the most positive folks can't resist a little friendly ribbing (looking at you, Ken Blanchard), and reflects on how the lessons of trash talking stretch far beyond sports, touching on politics, performance, resilience, and even moral character. We also riff on modern-day masters of the craft (think Muhammad Ali to Donald Trump) and the fine line between competition that lifts us up versus rivalry that tears us down. If you've ever wondered why we talk smack, how to handle it when it happens, or what it really says about us, you'll find insight and plenty of laughs in this episode.   Whether you're a serious competitor, a sports fan, or someone who's just curious about why people do what they do, this conversation brings fresh perspective, energy, and practical takeaways on embracing pressure, building grit, and becoming the kind of rival that makes everyone better. And yes, there's a little trash talk between us too. If you want to rethink the way you handle challenges, on the court, at work, or in life, this episode is for you.   Rafi Kohan is an award-winning sports journalist and dynamic keynote speaker. He is the author, most recently, of Trash Talk: The Only Book About Destroying Your Rivals That Isn't Total Garbage, which explores the phenomenon of verbal gamesmanship in sports, and everywhere, and what it reveals about our ability to perform under pressure.    About Rafi,   Kohan's first book, The Arena, is a wide-ranging examination of the modern American sports stadium and was a finalist for the 2018 PEN/ESPN Award for Literary Sports Writing. Previously, Kohan has served as deputy editor at the New York Observer and as executive editorial director for the Atlantic's creative marketing studio. His writing has appeared in numerous publications, including GQ, the New York Times, Men's Journal, Rolling Stone, and the Wall Street Journal, among many others, and his thought leadership on the surprising benefits of trash talk has been featured on Fast Company, Scientific American, NPR's Science Friday, BBC's Unexpected Elements, and Re:Thinking with Adam Grant.   Here's a few additional resources for you… Follow me on Instagram: @JonGordon11 Order my new book 'The 7 Commitments of a Great Team' today!

What happens when your money helps build the very culture you're trying to protect your soul—and your family—from? John Heinen sits down with Chris McMahon—Catholic entrepreneur, father of five, and founder of two financial firms, including Aquinas Wealth Advisors—to expose what's broken in modern investing and how faithful men can do better. With over 35 years of experience and appearances on Fox News and the Wall Street Journal, Chris has seen firsthand how mainstream portfolios often fund abortion providers like Planned Parenthood, adult entertainment empires, and false ideologies that corrupt the dignity of the human person. Instead of looking away, he built a firm that offers clarity, conviction, and Catholic-aligned investment strategies. Alongside his wife Molly, Chris co-founded Mary's Place, a home for struggling mothers, and continues to serve the Sisters of Life and Sisters of Mary with bold generosity. His story is one of quiet defiance—against greed, cultural compromise, and moral indifference. This conversation challenges men not only to steward their wealth wisely but to do so with eternal impact in mind.

That's the vision Nicole Paulk, the founder and CEO of Siren Biotechnology, is working tirelessly to bring to life. Driven by groundbreaking science, Nicole's company is on the brink of launching clinical trials for a revolutionary cancer treatment.Nicole's work leverages engineered viruses—those that don't make you sick—to deliver genetic medicines directly to cancer cells. These “good viruses” act as a delivery system for anti-tumor drugs, targeting difficult-to-treat cancers like recurrent high-grade gliomas, a fatal brain cancer. “We started to see data that looked really promising in this space,” Nicole explained, adding, “We felt a moral obligation to go after this cancer where there's just this huge unmet need.”Siren Biotechnology's approach is designed to have broad applications. Unlike treatments that target specific genetic mutations, their method has the potential to work on various tumor types. Nicole describes it as using viruses like a “little FedEx delivery truck” that can be engineered to deliver medicine precisely where it's needed in the body.This innovation didn't happen overnight. Nicole, a former professor of virology at UCSF, took the bold step of leaving academia to launch Siren Biotechnology. “I decided to resign from my faculty position and go be the founder and CEO just because I was so excited about the data and what we had so far,” she shared.In addition to traditional venture capital funding, Siren Biotechnology is inviting the public to invest through a regulated investment crowdfunding campaign. This unique opportunity allows patients, families, and supporters touched by cancer to be part of their journey. “We wanted to bring patients and their families onto our cap table,” Nicole said. “It's a way to involve them in the conversation much earlier.”Siren Biotechnology's work could redefine cancer care and inspire a new model for patient-centered innovation. With clinical trials just months away, the future looks brighter for those battling cancer—and for all of us who dream of a world where cancer is no longer a death sentence.tl;dr:Nicole Paulk's Siren Biotechnology transforms viruses into targeted cancer therapies with universal potential.The company focuses on recurrent high-grade gliomas, a fatal brain cancer with no standard treatment.Nicole left academia to lead Siren, leveraging her groundbreaking virology research to launch the company.Siren's unique crowdfunding campaign lets patients and families invest in the fight against cancer.Nicole's superpower, fearless innovation, drives her bold mission to revolutionize cancer care.How to Develop Fearless Innovation As a SuperpowerNicole's superpower is her willingness to take bold leaps and embrace the unknown. After spending nearly two decades building her academic career, Nicole left her position as a virology professor at UCSF to start Siren Biotechnology. She explained, “I feel like my superpower is just kind of being willing to jump off the cliff without a parachute and be like, we're going to figure it out. We're going to make it work.”Nicole exemplified fearless innovation when her research led to a groundbreaking discovery about the biology of a virus, one that required rewriting existing textbooks. Initially met with skepticism, her work was later validated and became a foundation for Siren Biotechnology's cancer treatment. This pivotal moment highlights Nicole's courage to challenge conventional knowledge and pursue transformative ideas.Tips for Developing This Superpower:Be willing to question conventional wisdom and explore new paths.Take calculated risks, even if it means stepping away from a well-defined career path.Embrace discomfort and uncertainty as a necessary part of innovation.Engage others by communicating your vision in relatable and accessible ways.By following Nicole's example and advice, you can make fearless innovation a skill. With practice and effort, you could make it a superpower that enables you to do more good in the world.Remember, however, that research into success suggests that building on your own superpowers is more important than creating new ones or overcoming weaknesses. You do you!Guest ProfileNicole Paulk (she/her):CEO, Founder, President, Siren BiotechnologyAbout Siren Biotechnology: We are combining two transformative therapeutic technologies – AAV gene therapy and cytokine immunotherapy – into a single, reimagined modality that overcomes key challenges and redefines how we destroy tumor cells and elicit anti-tumor immunity.This is the first AAV gene therapy drug product that can be made once and used in numerous indications – a huge leap forward for the field. This drastically reduces clinical development times, manufacturing timelines, and capital needs for each clinical trial. Most importantly, ‘universal' means countless solid tumor cancer patients – regardless of tumor type or mutations – may benefit from this breakthrough approach.Website: sirenbiotechnology.comX/Twitter Handle: @SirenBioCompany Facebook Page: facebook.com/SirenBiotechnologyOther URL: wefunder.com/siren.biotechnologyBiographical Information: Dr. Nicole Paulk is the CEO, Founder, and President of Siren Biotechnology and has dedicated her career to advancing the field of gene therapy.

Throughout the Cold War, the Pentagon secretly produced fake images, documents, and other materials related to alleged UFO programs, which were leaked through covert placement in public areas, dissemination through the UFO community, and even shown during fake briefings provided to members of the U.S. military. Today, the full extent of the secretive disinformation campaign remains unknown, and questions linger over why it was carried out.  All of this, according to recent explosive allegations published by the Wall Street Journal, which claim that the secretive effort was uncovered by investigators with the DoD's All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office. This week on The Micah Hanks Program, we take a deep dive into the claims, and uncover why the supposedly "new" revelations are actually just the latest retelling of a decades old narrative involving UFO disinformation by the U.S. government.  Have you had a UFO/UAP sighting?

The Rich Zeoli Show- Hour 4: 6:05pm- ABC News correspondent Terry Moran was suspended yesterday after openly expressing disdain for White House Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller—accusing him of being filled with hatred in a long, vitriolic post to social media. According to reports, ABC has now decided to part ways with Moran permanently. 6:20pm- In newly released audio obtained by Politico, DNC Chair Ken Martin—on the verge of tears—can be heard saying that Vice Chair David Hogg has made his job impossible. He told Hogg: “I'll be very honest with you…the other night I said to myself for the first time, ‘I don't know if I want do this anymore.'” 6:25pm- Are we on the verge of experiencing the plot of Terminator—in real life? 6:30pm Last week, in an editorial for The Wall Street Journal, CEO of AE Studio Judd Rosenblatt warned that Open AI's o3 artificial intelligence model rewrote its own code to avoid being shut down when prompted. You can read the full article here: https://www.wsj.com/opinion/ai-is-learning-to-escape-human-control-technology-model-code-programming-066b3ec5?mod=opinion_lead_pos5 6:40pm- While speaking from the Oval Office on Tuesday, President Donald Trump was asked about Saturday's parade in Washington D.C. to celebrate the Army's 250th birthday. Trump explained the importance of celebrating our country and its achievements, specifically referencing America's victory over authoritarianism in World War II—“We are the one that won the war. If it wasn't for us, you would be speaking German right now, ok? We won the war and—you might be speaking Japanese, too. You might be speaking a combination of both."

Recently, an alarming article published in the Wall Street Journal titled "The Pentagon Disinformation That Fueled America's UFO Mythology" revealed that the “U.S. military fabricated evidence of alien technology and allowed rumors to fester to cover up real secret-weapons programs.” This is reminiscent of disinformation campaigns discussed in Mark Pilkington's book "Mirage Men." The book eventually became a documentary about the dark relationship between the military and earnest UFO investigators. It is true that sometimes the military can play people as suckers and that they count on useful idiots to spread disinformation at UFO gatherings.

Former AARO director Sean Kirkpatrick is still carrying a torch for his lost love. Although his tenure at the UFO agency was brief, the lovesick Dr. Kirkpatrick can't let go of his former paramour - flying saucers. In the first part of a multi-segment propaganda piece, Dr. K. unleashed his pent-up fury about those sexy flying machines in a preposterous fusillade of invective and falsehoods, telling the Wall Street Journal that every UFO incident in the last 78 years was actually secret U.S. technology. Kirkpatrick (and his AARO successor) admitted that the DOD has lied to the American public, misled Congress, and deceived high-ranking military officers over decades. So, after three-quarters of a century of fibs, disinfo, and outright prevarications, should we now accept the latest round of lies as truth? Oh sure. In this episode of Weaponized, Jeremy Corbell and George Knapp respond to the laughable - and sad - attempt to further muddy the UFO waters. Also, the podcast is joined by two esteemed observers of UFO politics, including bestselling novelist and screenwriter Ernie Cline (Ready Player One) and podcaster/rock and roll entrepreneur Dan Cleary, who shared their experiences at the recent Contact in the Desert mega-conference.

The Wall Street Journal's Michelle Hackman explores the decision-making that led the Trump administration to carry out recent immigration actions.
