Vertical merger review has long rested on the principle that competitive harm is most likely when a merged firm has both the ability and incentive to foreclose rivals, yet courts and enforcers often struggle to establish that harm empirically. But can potentially anticompetitive vertical integrations be screened in advance using observable market characteristics? Charles Hodgson, Assistant Professor of Economics at Yale University and Faculty Research Fellow at the NBER, and Shilong Sun, Senior Economist at Compass Lexecon, join Anora Wang and Panos Dimitrellos to discuss how evidence from the Chinese film industry sheds light on when vertical foreclosure is likely to emerge, why downstream concentration and upstream product substitutability matter, and how these findings may inform modern merger review across industries ranging from movie theaters to digital platforms. Listen to this episode to learn more about how a practical screening framework for vertical mergers could help identify when foreclosure concerns are most likely to arise and provide enforcers and practitioners with a more evidence-based approach to assessing competitive harm.

Every June, thousands of sleep researchers descend on one city and quietly rewrite what we think we know about a third of our lives. This year it was Baltimore's turn, for the 40th annual SLEEP meeting — and the data that came out of it hits closer to home than usual: blood pressure, diabetes, teenage phones, and why "night owl" might really mean "lonely." Here are my Top 10 studies from SLEEP 2026 most likely to actually change how you sleep. In this episode we will:Break down why being sleepy and wired at night is a uniquely dangerous combination for blood pressure — and why either symptom alone barely moves the needleSit with a staggering number out of Yale: veterans with both insomnia and sleep apnea face six times the risk of developing type 2 diabetesRevisit the "regularity beats duration" thread from Episode 209 with two brand-new studies — one in preschoolers, one tracking teens all the way to age 22Unpack why women's sleep apnea can look identical to men's on paper and feel completely different in the body, and why that's delaying diagnosesGet into the psychology of sleep: why night owls' anxiety may really be about nighttime loneliness, and why expecting bad postpartum sleep can help create itTo find out more about this week's podcast sponsor Flexispot, please use the following link: Flexispot Hako G1 Bed and use the discount code J2CMJR7O for an extra 5% off.Original intro music Vigilanteology by Abhinav Singh (copyright 2026) Original outro music Vigilanteology (reprise) by Abhinav Singh (copyright 2026)Produced by: Maeve WinterMusic by: Dr. Abhinav Singh (@sleep_vigilante), all rights reservedMoreTwitter: @drchriswinterIG: @drchriwinterThreads: @drchriswinterBluesky: @drchriswinterThe Sleep Solution and The Rested ChildThanks for listening and sleep well!

Today's show is a flashback to nearly one year ago, in which I begin with a clip of John MacArthur accidentally sharing (10!) falsehoods about the millionaire missionary, William Borden, from a sermon back in 1988.

Last, I include a talk on William Borden that I gave at the Collegiate Reformed Fellowship back in March of 2024 in Moscow, ID, telling the true story of the Millionaire Missionary, William Borden, along with my personal connection to his amazing story.

We're living through the greatest transfer of wealth in history. Trillions of dollars are slowly passing from one generation to the next. Yet for all the money that's changing hands, something far more important isn't: Power.Our guest on this WhoWhatWhy podcast, Yale historian Samuel Moyn, believes America has quietly become something few of us have recognized: an aging society where the balance between generations has fundamentally shifted.The cohort of people making the biggest political decisions, controlling the most valuable assets, dominating elections, and shaping the country's future are getting older, not younger.We've spent years arguing over whether this politician or that president is too old. But what if those debates have distracted us from a much larger story? Get full access to Talk Cocktail Podcast at jeffschechtman.substack.com/subscribe

Conservative dark money is funding a network of so-called "pink slime" websites that sell influence to the fossil fuel industry and far-right special interests, where candidates and PACs can simply buy the coverage they want on hundreds, perhaps thousands of websites, and hundreds of millions of impressions across their ad networks. These sites look innocuous, but they're filled with undisclosed press releases, bylined to newsrooms or individuals that often don't exist. What's worse: they now outnumber the country's remaining local newspaper sites, and when Yale researchers put them side by side with the real thing, nearly half of Americans preferred the fake ones. Let's talk about it and what this means for the upcoming midterm elections. www.Patreon.com/KillTheComputer  

Arts Respond: Quinn O'Connor, "Yale Summer Cabaret" by WNHH Community Radio

Trump's TV speech, and his declining situation, politically and mentally: Six years after he lost the 2020 election, Trump is still trying to find someone, anyone, to tell him he won. Trump said that last night's speech was about the 2020 election but really it was about the 2026 elections – and Trump's efforts to cause people to doubt the vote counters because he knows Republicans are set to suffer great losses in the upcoming midterms – Harold Meyerson comments on Trump's bad week leading up to the speech.Also: Trump believes the teaching of history really matters—that's why on July 4 he issued a 162-page attack on the Smithsonian's National Museum of American History. Yale historian Beverly Gage comments – her new book is This Land is Your Land: A Road Trip through US History.Plus: from the archives, "Trump and Golf": The Saudi-backed LIV golf league returned to Trump's Doral Resort in April 2025 – an early sign that Trump family business deals using Saudi government financing were going to continue into the new presidency. The legendary sportswriter Robert Lipsyte comments on Trump and golf. (broadcast originally in August 2017)

Arts Leadership & Institutional Innovation - Inside the Yale Schwarzman Center with Rachel FineIn this episode, I sat down with Rachel Fine, Executive Director of the Yale Schwarzman Center in the United States of America.Rachel is someone who came to arts leadership without a roadmap, as I think most of us do. She trained as a pianist and found her way into arts admin almost by accident, through gaining experience in different areas.So, in this episode, we talk about what the Yale Schwarzman Center actually is and does, both on a local and international scale, because I do think it allows us in the industry to think more widely about community and culture - especially as I was coming to this interview from a more fine art angle, and she was coming at it from a musical angle.I ask her about what her role as executive director entails, and she goes into depth on what it means to run an institution of this size. We spend a good deal of time talking about career paths and how Rachel fell into arts administration, why fundraising is more central to arts leadership than people like to admit, what the financial reality of this field actually looks like and if you can have a stable career in it, and where someone who wants to work in the cultural industries should start.Thank you Rachel for coming on the podcast!You can follow the Yale Schwarzman Center on Instagram here: https://www.instagram.com/yale_schwarzman/  and find out more at https://schwarzman.yale.edu/ - - - - - If you love what we do, support ALL ABOUT ART on PATREON!  ⁠https://www.patreon.com/allaboutart⁠Keep up to date on Instagram @allaboutartpodcast  ⁠https://www.instagram.com/allaboutartpodcast/⁠ ABOUT THE HOST:I am an Austrian-American art historian, curator, and writer.

Self-worth isn't just something women struggle with when life falls apart. In today's episode,, Maraya Brown sits down with Amy Lawson, a Rapid Transformational Therapy (RTT) practitioner, to explore why so many high-achieving women still wrestle with hidden unworthiness beneath success, perfectionism, people-pleasing, and burnout, and how healing those patterns can lead to deeper self-trust, healthier relationships, and lasting inner peace.   About Amy Lawson Amy Blair Lawson is a Rapid Transformational Therapy practitioner and transformational guide for high‑achieving women who feel like they've done all the things—therapy, coaching, personal development—and still sense that something deeper is holding them back. She specializes in helping women uncover the limiting thoughts and underlying beliefs formed through earlier life experiences, so they can stop repeating old patterns and finally step into their power with clarity, confidence, and self‑trust. Drawing on her own healing journey and years of working with driven, self-aware women, Amy has created powerful programs that support women—especially those in midlife—who are ready to move beyond "I should be over this by now" and into a life that feels emotionally free, self-honoring, and authentically their own.   Website: https://www.amyblairlawson.com Podcast: The Gray Girlfriend's Guide to LIFE Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/GrayGirlfriendsGuideToLife YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@GrayGirlfriendsGuideToLife Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/amyblair.lawson     The Women's Vibrancy Accelerator Trifecta: Your 90-Day Health Reset Ready to take your health to the next level?

Empathy gets treated like a personality trait: you either have it or you don't. Roxana Radulescu, Level 52 coach and facilitator, argues that's wrong. It's a muscle, and most leaders are either overusing it, avoiding it, or using it to avoid the hard conversation instead of having it. In this episode of The Executive Commute, Jayson Krause talks with Roxana about what empathy actually is (her definition: care plus trust), what it isn't (sympathy, agreement, an excuse to skip feedback), and where it goes wrong at the top of organizations. They dig into a Yale psychologist's argument that empathy fuels bias and tribalism, why holding more power tends to erode it, and whether "care first" leadership is a real strategy or just a nicer way to describe layoffs. They cover: Empathy defined: care plus trust, not sympathy The line between empathy and judgment The case against empathy: bias, favoritism, and in-group tribalism Why power erodes empathy (and what that means for executives) Empathy's role in high-stakes, high-performance teams A simple starting point for building the empathy muscle If you've ever held back a hard conversation because you "didn't want to make it worse," or wondered whether empathy and high standards can coexist, this conversation will change how you think about both.

Some homeschool graduates launch into adulthood with confidence, while others finish all the curriculum and still feel stuck. The difference is rarely grades — and this episode is going to show you exactly what it is.We are breaking down the shift from raising students to raising homeschool graduates who are truly prepared for real life, with 3 practical things you can start doing this week:✅Why completed curriculum and good grades do not equal real-life readiness✅1 question every homeschool mom needs to ask about building life skills in your kids✅What truly successful adults have in common — and how to build it before they leave home✅Why character, initiative, and problem solving matter more than any test score✅How to let your child solve one problem this week without stepping in — starting todayGrab the Free Character Building Mini Chart mentioned in this episode and start building what really matters in your homeschool today.Resources for You Free Character Building Mini Chart New homeschool support community early access Show Notes:Why Some Homeschool Graduates Launch Into Adulthood With Confidence — And Others Don'tHave you ever wondered why some homeschool graduates launch into adulthood with confidence while others seem stuck — even though both finished their curriculum and both made good grades? What if you are checking off all the boxes but missing the thing that actually prepares your child for adult life?Today we're talking about the difference between information and preparation for real life.What Traditional Education Rewards vs. What Real Life RewardsMany graduates know facts, but they struggle with decision-making, responsibility, work ethic, communication, and initiative. Traditional education — at least for the past 200 years — rewards compliance and completion. Real life rewards wisdom, perseverance, and leadership.We tend to measure success by completed curriculum, grades, transcripts, and test scores. Those things are easy to measure, so we feel secure in them. And yet that isn't always what is best for our kids. The things that are easy to measure aren't always what will prepare them for real life. Character, wisdom, initiative, responsibility, leadership — those are harder to measure. And yet those are the qualities that determine success as an adult.So I want you to ask yourself this question today. What adult skill are you intentionally building in your children right now? Time management? Communication? Problem solving? Responsibility? Grab a piece of paper and write down three things you want your kids to be able to do or be known for at the age of 25. Then see if those are things you're actually working on with them right now.You might notice that most of what you write down are character qualities — not academic achievements.Clara Barton Didn't Change the World With a TranscriptClara Barton started the American Red Cross. She was educated largely at home because she was very shy and struggled in traditional settings. She had very little formal schooling compared to what standards are today. Why? Because her family focused on character, service, and practical responsibility.She later founded the American Red Cross and became one of the most influential humanitarians in our history. Her impact didn't come from a high school transcript. It came from compassion, leadership, courage, and a willingness to take responsibility when others wouldn't. Does anyone remember Clara Barton because she completed a curriculum? No. They remember her because she had an impact on others. She served others well.The Real Question Is Not Can They Find InformationInformation has never been more readily available. Kids can find any fact they want instantly on their phones. The question is not can they find information. The question is can they use that information wisely? Can they solve problems? Can they make wise decisions? Can they think critically? Can they follow God when life gets hard?Those are the things I wanted for my own children. Now that I watch them going through some trials — they're all in their 30s — I am thankful that God is still working in them and they are making wise decisions.What qualities consistently show up in successful adults? The ability to think critically and biblically. To communicate. To solve problems. To keep learning. To have a strong character and a strong work ethic. To persevere. To have integrity and dignity. These are not measured by a worksheet or a test score.Booker T. Washington and the Tuskegee ModelBooker T. Washington is one of my favorite historical characters. He was born into slavery. He had very little formal education. He pursued learning relentlessly and went to Hampton Institute, where he was trained not only academically but in discipline, responsibility, and leadership.He later founded Tuskegee Institute in Alabama. When you went to Tuskegee, yes, you chose an academic major — but you also had to choose a practical activity you would use to help build the university. Some students were construction workers who built the new buildings. Some were cooks who cooked the food all the students ate. Some were gardeners who grew the food. It was a dual pathway to graduation — academics and real-world responsibility together.Booker T. Washington's success came from perseverance, leadership, and responsibility. And in one particular year, there were more millionaires from Tuskegee than from Harvard, Yale, and Princeton combined — because his system worked. He didn't just teach academics. He taught life skills that students could use for the rest of their lives.The education that changes life isn't just information. It includes character formation and practical wisdom.Who Is Your Child Becoming?Many moms can plan subjects, lessons, and activities. But few intentionally plan character building, leadership opportunities, decision-making practice, independent thinking, real-world responsibility, work ethic, self-discipline, communication, and biblical wisdom. Those are all things your children need to be successful as adults.Most homeschool moms ask — what should my child learn? But the real question is — who is my child becoming?Make a list of who you want your child to be when they leave your home. If they're five, you have lots of time. If they're 15, that's okay too. There is still time. God is gracious and He has the Holy Spirit — and that is what can take you through and get your kids prepared.Most adults don't struggle because they forgot algebra. They struggle because they can't manage money, relationships, priorities, or decisions.If your child graduated tomorrow, what would you want people to say about them? I know what I wanted. I wanted someone to say they're following Jesus. They honor Jesus. They live a life of godly character. They have perseverance, work ethic, and integrity. It's not what your kids are memorizing — it's who they become.What to Do This WeekLet your child solve one problem without you. Don't step in immediately. Give them time to think it through. That builds lifelong skills. If they're not sure where to start, ask them — what do you think you should do first? Let them find the answer.That one shift — from solving it for them to asking them to think — is the beginning of everything.If this episode helped you, would you please share it with someone? That would mean the world to me.I also have two things for you. First, a free character building mini chart — the link is in the show notes. Second, I'm building a limited community of homeschool moms where we can encourage each other and answer questions about where you are right now. If you'd like early access, there is a sign-up link in the show notes as well. year?

Skull and Bones is not a campus rumor. Founded at Yale in eighteen thirty-two by William Huntington Russell, Alphonso Taft, and other students, the society selected small annual classes, met inside a private High Street building known as the Tomb, and became associated with the Russell Trust Association. Its emblem, a skull and crossed bones over the number three twenty-two, remains one of the most recognizable symbols in American elite culture.The unresolved issue is not whether the society existed, or whether prominent Americans were members. Yale records, biographies, photographs, archival material, and public statements document alumni who later became presidents, senators, intelligence officials, diplomats, publishers, financiers, and judges. The harder question is whether Skull and Bones merely identified students already moving toward influence, or whether its privacy and alumni network helped carry them there.This episode follows the society from its founding through the Tomb, the tapping system, the Taft and Bush family connections, disputed ritual accounts, the Geronimo allegation, and the extraordinary two thousand four election, when George W. Bush and John Kerry stood on opposite sides of a presidential race while sharing membership in the same Yale society. The evidence shows access, continuity, and silence. What it does not conclusively show is command.This podcast uses artificial intelligence in its research, writing, production, and narration.

An NFL quarterback's coach gives him one rule on game day. No phone. Not less phone. None. Because of what it does to him before he's even taken a snap: how he sees, how fast he sorts what matters from what doesn't, how much noise he carries onto the field. Most of us start every day the exact way that quarterback is told not to. Already loud. Already full. Already carrying. This one is about the cost you're paying and never counted. The pile you've stopped seeing. The project you left half-open eight months ago. The storage unit you pay for and step around. A Yale study found your brain is working on all of it, everything in your field of vision, whether you choose to look at it or not. And here's the part that changes things: the weight of carrying those open loops is heavier than the work of closing them. So we're closing tabs. Not organizing them. Closing them. Inside, I get into the two ways to close any open loop (only one of them is finishing it), why pouring in more energy never fixes a leak, and the two tabs I handed my husband this month. Find one open thing this week. Close it. Notice what comes back. In this episode: Why clutter you're not even looking at still taxes your brain, and what the Yale research actually says The difference between carrying the work and carrying the open Offense versus defense: protecting your energy before the day spends it for you The Close the Tabs challenge, and how to pick a cadence you'll actually keep If you're ready to stop carrying it, this is the work we do inside DEFENSE.

Over the last decade, the number of drug candidates entering development has doubled, yet the number of successful drug approvals remains flat at ~50 per year.This week, we sit down with Formation Bio founder and CEO Ben Liu. His company has raised more than $600 million to build what he hopes will become the first new enduring pharmaceutical company in decades, powered by AI. Ben explains why he believes clinical development, not drug discovery, is becoming the industry's biggest bottleneck, and how AI could fundamentally change the economics of bringing new medicines to patients.We cover:Why there hasn't there been a big pharma company created since the 1980sWhich drug categories Ben believes could become the next GLP-1s and reshape healthcareWhy Formation Bio chose to become a pharmaceutical company instead of selling softwareThe real bottleneck in bringing medicines to patientsBen's roadmap for how AI will transform drug development over the next 10 to 20 yearsAbout our guest:Ben Liu is the co-founder and CEO of Formation Bio. He received his DPhil at Oxford as a Rhodes Scholar, leveraging machine-learning, AI, and big-data to develop diagnostics and therapeutics for Parkinson's and Alzheimer's disease. During his graduate work, he observed the way clinical trials bottlenecked the development of new treatments for patients, compelling him to start Formation Bio.Before Formation Bio, Ben graduated from Yale where he was awarded the college's highest honor at graduation and received his MPhil with distinction in Computational Biology from the Department of Applied Mathematics and Theoretical Physics at Cambridge as a Paul Mellon Fellow. Ben also serves as an Advisor to Harvard Business School's MS/MBA Program in Biotechnology.—

“A place that doesn't have great philosophers will not have great technologists either.” — Mehran Gul on Europe's inexplicable underperformance The digital revolution, we were promised, would mean the end of geography. From Beijing to Birmingham to Berlin to Barcelona, anyone could invent anything anywhere, and so the geography of innovation would no longer matter. But that's not the way it has worked out. At least according to the Geneva-based innovation geographer Mehran Gul. Gul's acclaimed The New Geography of Innovation is a travelogue of innovation. But what he finds on his journey around the world in search of innovation is the end of the end of geography. Yes, Gul reports, there's innovation in Beijing and in Birmingham (USA) — but not in Birmingham (England), Berlin or Barcelona. All the important invention is in China and the US. There simply isn't much radical stuff going on anywhere else. Gul began his journey expecting to find ten or twelve countries able to innovate competitively with the United States and China. But what he discovered is either niche players or, in the case of South Korea, Israel, and India, just an extension of the US-centric system. Europe — as renters rather than owners of American technology — comes off worst. When PayPal went public, it minted 160 millionaires who went on to help build SpaceX, Tesla, LinkedIn and Palantir; when Skype exited at about the same value, it minted 11. And if you put London aside, the rest of the UK is now poorer per capita than Mississippi. And the AI boom has only compounded all this, with half of last year's key research papers coming from China, 40% from America, and just 4% from Europe. So really the new geography of innovation is the old geography. Only with China replacing Europe as the only serious competitor to American innovation. Oh lord, oh lord. As a Mississippi bluesman might summarize Europe's predicament. Five Takeaways •       Golden Shares: The Two Systems Are Converging. OpenAI offering Washington a 5% stake, the US government owning Intel — these are Chinese moves, and Gul argues the two models are becoming more alike than either admits. But he pushes back on the lazy version of the China story: its tech sector rose despite the state, not because of it. Jack Ma exiled to Japan, Didi hit with a billion in fines, entire sectors decapitated overnight in 2021 under the banner of common prosperity. In a country with no independent media and no opposition parties, the only rival to centralized power is the tech sector — and the party knows it. •       Two Countries — and Everyone Else. Gul started writing expecting to find ten or twelve countries punching at America's level; the honest answer turned out to be two. Only China has broad-based competence across technologies and a genuinely competitive relationship with the US. The middle powers — South Korea, Israel, India — are extensions of the American system, not rivals to it. That finding surprised the author as much as anyone: it's not the book he set out to write. •       Europe: Renters, Not Owners. After the Fable 5 and Mythos bans, Europe woke up to being a renter of American technology — foundation models, NVIDIA GPUs, all of it. Its best companies keep leaving: DeepMind to Google, Arm to a New York listing, Hugging Face from Paris to Manhattan — while Volvo, Supercell, and KUKA sold to China. Gul's diagnosis is institutional, not cultural: European employees own half as much of their startups as American ones, so there is no European PayPal mafia. His fixes: a European Nasdaq to replace 41 competing capital markets, and pension funds unleashed into venture capital. •       The Question Nobody Is Asking. Since 1990, America's share of global GDP has held at 25% while China's multiplied tenfold — the loser is Europe. The top ten American tech companies are worth $27 trillion, more than the GDP of every country on earth except America itself. Tech is not one industry among many; it is the foundation of all of them — the new cars came from Tesla, not GM. Gul's message to the skeptical Spaniard enjoying long lunches: the last sixty years of American platform dominance skewed power across the Atlantic, and the next sixty will add China to the bill. •       The Rest of the Map: Anti Case Studies. Japan tops the freedom indexes, has the technical schools, and still never escaped the keiretsu — disproving Matt Ridley's claim that innovation is simply the child of freedom. Taiwan's relevance comes down to one company and Morris Chang's missed promotion at Texas Instruments. Singapore is an inspiration, not a model — a one-party city-state that invoices NVIDIA's chips and banks ASEAN's venture capital. India underperforms while Indians excel — 56 notable American foundation models last year, 35 Chinese, barely one Indian. And Switzerland reminds us innovation isn't only venture-backed: a train network running on renewables since the 1960s. About the Guest Mehran Gul writes about technology and business. He is the winner of the Financial Times/McKinsey Bracken Bower Prize, from which The New Geography of Innovation grew. He attended Yale as a Fulbright Scholar, Fox International Fellow, and Teaching Fellow, has been a Lead for the Digital Transformation of Industries at the World Economic Forum in Geneva, and served as an expert on entrepreneurship and industrial policy at the United Nations Industrial Development Organization in Vienna. Born in Pakistan, he lives in Switzerland.

In Gerontocracy in America, Yale legal historian Samuel Moyn makes the case that older generations have systematically hoarded wealth and power, leaving younger Americans with fewer opportunities and a shrinking share of the future. On the second half of the episode, historian James Chappel shares ideas from his book Golden Years, tracing how Americans have invented and reinvented what it even means to grow old.

For twenty years, Christian Wiman has lived with a rare, incurable cancer. In the fall of 2022, during a stretch when the illness was especially bad, he wrote to his friend and Yale colleague Miroslav Volf: “I don't know what faith means anymore. I'm a 56-year-old with a pile of books behind me and an experimental bone marrow transplant ahead of me, and I don't know what faith means.” That letter became the seed of an extended correspondence between the poet and the theologian, now published as Glimmerings: Letters on Faith between a Poet and a Theologian. In this special collaboration with Arc Magazine, editor Mark Oppenheimer sits down with Volf and Wiman to unpack the letters that grew out of their long friendship and years of walking together through New Haven. They discuss what it means to love God, why doubt and absence might be constitutive elements of faith and presence rather than its opposite, and how a terminal diagnosis changed what each of them was willing to say and how freely they said it. They also trace the thinkers who shaped their thinking along the way, from Simone Weil's account of attention to Etty Hillesum's wartime writing, to Abraham Joshua Heschel's theology of the prophets, and they wrestle openly with where their understandings of Jesus Christ converge and diverge. Along the way, Wiman reflects on writing from a hospital room at Massachusetts General, on discovering that his fear was never death itself but the fear of dying without God, and on why grief, not fear, is what remains even after that fear falls away. Episode Highlights I don't know what faith means anymore. I'm a 56-year-old with a pile of books behind me and an experimental bone marrow transplant ahead of me, and I don't know what faith means. I sometimes find it hard to think what it means to love God. I don't know how to love God. Faith is what matters. Belief seems to me a matter of the institution and ascending to creeds and things like that. I think most of my theological thinking is existentially motivated. It's motivated by the kind of inner logic of the trust in which I'm involved. Most of the books that I wrote, I've written for myself. I'm one of those writers who doesn't have an audience. There is grace in my life if I can just keep my eyes open enough to see it. His mistake in some ways lets him see that the world is right, that there's a rightness to the world. What becomes clear is one's longing for God. Everything is stripped away and very little else seems to matter. What I want most in my life is the presence of God. And I fear dying without that. Just being alone at the moment of death. I was worried that he won't have God in that situation of need because attention might be lacking.

At what point did you realize this wasn't simply something you loved — it was something you were willing to sacrifice for?The Influence of Rudolf Jettel and Musical ObsessionYou've described Rudolf Jettel, Principal Clarinetist of the Vienna Philharmonic, as your “musical father.”You first studied with him as a 12-year-old boy and even sat beside him during Vienna Philharmonic performances. What did those experiences awaken in you creatively and emotionally? And how did that mentorship shape not only your musicianship, but your standards for excellence?Performing at the Highest LevelYour career has brought you into some of the world's most prestigious musical environments — from Carnegie Hall to collaborations with artists like Yehudi Menuhin, Yo-Yo Ma, and Rudolf Serkin.When performing at that level, what separates technical mastery from true artistic expression? What have you learned about communication, emotion, and presence through music?Reinvention, Teaching, and Giving BackIn addition to performing, you've spent decades mentoring young musicians and building chamber music programs at institutions like Montclair State University, Yale, and Princeton.What do you believe young artists today most need to understand about building a sustainable creative life? And how has teaching deepened your own understanding of creativity and performance?Writing the Memoir: From Musician to AuthorThis book marks your debut as an author, and it goes far beyond music. It's about resilience, identity, family, and survival.What inspired you to finally tell this story now? And during the writing and audiobook process, what did you discover about yourself that surprised you?David, after a lifetime devoted to music, performance, and teaching, what advice would you give to someone who feels deeply called to a creative path — but is struggling to hold onto belief inIf you enjoyed this episode, subscribe, share it with someone who loves music and creativity, and leave us a review.

In this week's MBA Admissions podcast we began by discussing the current state of the MBA admissions season. While activity for this season is winding down, we do still anticipate a little more waitlist movement in the weeks ahead. For upcoming events, Clear Admit is also hosting a special webinar event for international students, scheduled for July 16, at 10AM Central European time. This webinar will explore the value of a U.S.-based MBA for international students, as well as the logistics of moving to the United States, getting a student visa, and staying for post-MBA employment. Clear Admit's MBA Essay Workshop series, which has now expanded to five events, is scheduled for July 21, 22 and 23, and July 28 and 29. These events will bring together an increasing number of the top MBA programs to discuss both their written essay prompts as well as their video essays. Signups for all events are here: https://www.clearadmit.com/events Graham highlighted Clear Admit's weekly refresh series, which tracks the top MBA programs' announcements related to the upcoming admissions season. We then discussed an admissions tip that focuses on the impact of volunteer experience on the MBA admissions process. Clear Admit continues its Adcom Q&A series. This week Graham noted Q&As from Harvard Business School, Georgetown / McDonough and UNC / Kenan Flagler. Finally, Graham continued with the Real Humans Alumni series. This week focuses on an alumnus from Yale, working at Pepsi Co. For this week, for the candidate profile review portion of the show, Alex selected three ApplyWire entries. This week's first MBA admissions candidate is a chemical engineer by training, and wants to use the MBA to pivot to consulting. This week's second MBA applicant appears to have strong founder experience. We worry about the combination of their undergraduate record and their lower test score. This week's final MBA candidate is a software engineer from India. They have a 322 GRE. We think it makes sense to try to improve that score. This episode was recorded in Paris, France and Cornwall, England. It was produced and engineered by the fabulous Dennis Crowley in Philadelphia, USA. Thanks to all of you who've been joining us and please remember to rate and review this show wherever you listen!

Two hundred and fifty years of American history is no small thing to celebrate. And as communities of faith mark this momentous milestone, there is a story worth telling and retelling: the story of a nation whose foundations were laid by men and women who looked to God and to Scripture as the source of true freedom. The Founding Fathers themselves declared that the law of nature was the will of God, binding upon all people in all ages. The Bible was not incidental to America's beginnings. It was central to them. The evidence runs deep. The Great Awakening united thirteen separate colonies in a spiritual revival that prepared hearts for the nation's founding. The Black Robed Regiment, a group of bold patriotic pastors, preached liberty from their pulpits and rallied colonists to stand for their biblically grounded beliefs. The Declaration of Independence drew from Christian sources and the writings of men shaped by Scripture. And public schools were established specifically so that children could read the Bible for themselves, the same foundational text that gave rise to Harvard, Yale, Princeton, and William and Mary. As America turns 250, this is a day to praise God with grateful hearts for His hand in establishing this nation, to hold firm to the biblical truths it was built upon, and to ask Him for the wisdom and faithfulness to carry those principles forward into the next generation. Today's Bible Verse "Let everything that has breath praise the Lord. Praise the Lord."— Psalm 150:6, NIV Ponder Today America's founding was deeply rooted in biblical principles. The Founding Fathers did not view faith as separate from governance. They looked to God as the source of natural law, human dignity, and true freedom, and they built accordingly. Spiritual revival preceded national founding. The Great Awakening was not merely a religious event — it was the spiritual preparation that united thirteen separate colonies and forged a people willing to pursue freedom together. Pastors have always had a role in shaping a nation's conscience. The Black Robed Regiment is a striking historical reminder that the Church has a voice in the public square, and that faithfully preaching biblical truth has consequences far beyond the sanctuary walls. Freedom, rightly understood, is a gift from God. The Declaration of Independence grounded its claims in the recognition that certain rights are endowed by the Creator. That foundation is worth celebrating and defending on this 250th anniversary. Every generation is responsible for passing on what was entrusted to them. Ronald Reagan's reminder still rings true: freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. Celebrating America's heritage includes committing to carry it forward with wisdom and faithfulness. A Prayer for You Today Dear Father, we praise You with grateful hearts as we celebrate our nation's 250th birthday. Thank You for the way You guided our Founding Fathers to establish America on solid biblical principles, giving our nation a godly heritage that remains to this day. Fill our lips with praise for Your great and mighty work in establishing this nation. Strengthen America to hold true to the foundational biblical truths it was built upon. Lead us as a people and a nation to yield to Your Almighty guidance, and grant our leaders and citizens the godly wisdom to move forward with steadfast faithfulness and devotion to You. In Jesus' name, Amen. Don't Miss an Episode If today's prayer stirred both patriotism and gratitude in your heart for God's hand on this nation, we'd love to stay connected.

Rob Henderson grew up in poverty in Los Angeles moving from foster home to foster home, seeing addiction, instability, and family breakdown all around him. He joined the U.S. Air Force at 17, entered Yale University at 25 with help from the GI Bill, and completed his PhD at the University of Cambridge. He climbed “every rung on the American class ladder,” as he describes it.But at Yale and other elite universities, he saw the spread of radical ideas—abolish the police, empty prisons, dismantle marriage, decriminalize all drugs—ideas that he understood would be devastating to the communities he grew up in.And that's how he came to develop his now famous concept of luxury beliefs: “Luxury beliefs are ideas and opinions that confer status on the affluent … while inflicting costs on the less fortunate members of society,” he says.How is it that these ideas came to be so pervasive? And what are their true consequences for society?Henderson is a senior fellow at the Manhattan Institute, contributing editor of City Journal, and bestselling author of “Troubled: A Memoir of Foster Care, Family, and Social Class.”Views expressed in this video are opinions of the host and the guest, and do not necessarily reflect the views of The Epoch Times.

The largest U.S. testing program ever run, overseen by a biostatistician at Yale, found almost no adulteration in the brands that make up 85% of the market. So your bottle is probably real olive oil. The real scam is quieter. Age, oxidation, and grade games can leave you paying a premium price for a bottle that has lost the one compound that made olive oil healthy in the first place. Ben Azadi breaks down the five red flags he watches for, the real court cases behind them, and a five second test you can run at home today. Key takeaways: The "69% fake" stat came from a 2010 report funded by California olive growers with an interest in making imports look bad Watch the words "100% pure," a lower refined grade with documented pomace lawsuits behind it A price more than 50% below average and a clear glass bottle are warning signs The harvest date matters far more than the best buy date, aim for oil pressed in the last 12 to 18 months Olive oil's health power comes from polyphenols like oleocanthal, which acts on the same COX enzymes as ibuprofen Oleocanthal fades with heat, light, and age, so old oxidized oil can have almost none left The pepper challenge: a peppery throat sting means real polyphenols are present Find All The Ben Azadi Show Sponsorship Deals ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.ketokamp.com/sponsorship-deals

In Episode 485 of Hidden Forces, Demetri Kofinas speaks with Yale political scientist Ian Shapiro—author of After the Fall—about how the widespread optimism of the post–Cold War era gave way so rapidly to the fractured, combative politics of today, why American unilateralism hollowed out the very international institutions the US claimed to champion, and what it will take for mainstream democratic parties to recover their legitimacy in the populist era. The first hour traces the critical decisions of the 1990s and early 2000s that Ian believes set this unraveling in motion: the choice to enlarge NATO eastward and invest meaningfully in Russia's post-Soviet transition, and the NATO bombing of Yugoslavia as the first major military action taken without UN Security Council authorization. They then turn to  the unilateral invasion of Iraq as the seminal rupture in the international rules-based order, followed by the 2008 financial crisis and its aftermath, which delivered a parallel blow to the elite consensus that had governed Western countries since the onset of the Cold War. The second hour opens with the 2011 intervention in Libya and the doctrine of the responsibility to protect, which Shapiro argues was cynically deployed to topple Muammar Gaddafi, leaving behind a failed state and further discrediting the international norms it was meant to uphold. From there, they trace the cascading fallout across the Middle East and Europe—through Syria and Ukraine—to the present moment, before turning to the central political question of the age: whether mainstream parties can deliver an industrial policy and a model of inclusive growth capable of addressing the economic grievances and insecurities driving the populist revolt across the democratic world.
