Let us chat about today the inches all around us and also about how there is no market in healthcare all at once in this show. Today I am talking with Ivana Krajcinovic. And let me give you some examples of the inches. Two members of a plan get infusions at a hospital. And if these two members had gone down the street to get their infusions, the total cost of the two of them would have been $1 million less … $1 million less! How many inches is a million dollars? For a full transcript of this episode, click here. If you enjoy this podcast, be sure to subscribe to the free weekly newsletter to be a member of the Relentless Tribe. Or the examples Ivana Krajcinovic talks about coming up where an independent practice was charging $135 for a chemo infusion and the hospital down the street was charging for the same exact drug, by the way—the same exact infusion—$13,560 … $135 versus $13,560! We talk about affordability in this country? Member's paying coinsurance off that 13K, by the way. And if you're doing the math at home, that is a 10,000% markup. Or if we start from the Medicare price, it was a 40,000% markup. Then there's another example that Ivana talks about where a plan member went to a hospital and got a $90,000 bill for a series of infusions that, again, down the street would have been $185—all in. Inches much? So, it's pretty clear why the show is part of "The Inches Are All Around Us" series. Why do I say this is part of the "No Market" series? Because look, functioning markets rationalize prices. That's just what they do. So, if you have two places in the exact same geography and one of them is charging 500 times or whatever the other one, you don't have a market if they're both still in business a year later. Ongoing wild price variations is a big tell that there's no market to be had. Another tell, though, is that carrier networks, who are supposed to be the demand curve here—or at least that's what their marketing says or what we are all kind of led to believe—they advertise as high-value networks, right? The fact that any given network experiences essentially no business repercussions for spending a million dollars extra of its plan sponsors' (its customers') money—because that's who's paying for this, the self-insured employer or union, at the end of the day—and the network, the carrier network doesn't lose business as a result … Right? Listen to the show from last week with Jacob Asher, MD (Take Two: EP398) about the carrier nonmarket and why this is the case. But bottom line, if anyone is waiting on a market to constrain prices for them, that is very magical thinking. Where this whole thing is gonna wind up, by the way, is with my guest today, Ivana Krajcinovic, suggesting a roadmap to make a whole lot more likely that you'll pay $135 for an infusion instead of 13 grand. For more on this, do go back and listen to the show with Keith Hartman, RPh, by the way. We teed this off a couple of years ago. That was episode 369. But in Ivana's upcoming roadmap that you're gonna hear about (just doubling down on the spoilers—if I'm gonna do something, I might as well do it well), but in that roadmap, direct contracts with indie practices will feature a starring role. I'm telling you this because if you're one of those folks that listens to like 23 minutes of any given podcast and then bails, make sure you make it to around the 30-minute mark of the show. As I have said several times already, my guest today is the incomparable Ivana Krajcinovic, the outgoing vice president of healthcare delivery at UNITE HERE HEALTH. Ivana has just retired, but she spent over three decades with her team protecting the health and the hard-earned wages of 230,000 hospitality workers. She is exactly the kind of "dangerous expert" that we love to have on the show—someone with the wisdom about how the system actually works and the articulate willingness to talk about it. Okay … so, this conversation about the inches and the nonmarket for infusions specifically in this country, for more information, do go back and read the really excellent Bloomberg News exposé by John Tozzi. It's a really good article, and you'll see everything that we talk about today in writing with all the fact-checking that one would expect from Bloomberg News. So, okay … what we'll do in this episode is, first, we're gonna talk about the infusion nonmarket, the inches and its implications, such as an infusion costing 500 times Medicare when there are 1.5x Medicare options in the same exact health system. Sometimes I just can't even with some of this stuff. But another nonmarket tell, again, is that carrier networks are still in business. We talk all about that. What happens next in this episode is we deconstruct the roadmap that Ivana used to fight back, which starts with (no surprises) drilling into data and ends with direct contracting with independent doctors. And how that happens is by carving out utilization management so that there is site-of-care steerage. So, this is a conversation about fiduciary duty. It's a conversation about transparency, the power of collective action. This podcast is sponsored by Aventria Health Group with an assist from Payerset.

Combining her training as a health economist with more than 30 years working directly with immigrants and the working poor, Ivana oversaw a wide variety of projects. She has deep expertise in engaging participants, ranging from benefit education to chronic disease self-management, as well as in developing peer-to-peer programs. Ivana led a team whose challenge was to radically bend the cost curve while maintaining quality coverage as every dollar that UHH spends on healthcare is a dollar that could go to a worker in wages—higher wages that are likely to do more for workers' health than increasing spending on their healthcare. Ivana and her team have utilized narrow networks, value-based contracts, and direct contracting and have established health centers designed for their members. Ivana has a PhD in economics from Yale University and is the author of From Company Doctors to Managed Care: The United Mineworkers' Noble Experiment (Cornell University Press).   00:00 $135 vs $13,560: How infusion drug prices play into the "Inches All Around Us" series. 02:02 How infusion drug pricing fits into the "No Market" series. 03:19 A roadmap and more episodes on this topic. 04:36 Introducing this week's expert, Ivana Krajcinovic, PhD. 05:10 A must-read Bloomberg News article on infusion pricing. 05:33 An overview of what to expect from this episode. 06:54 The first tell of the infusion nonmarket. 07:41 The price variations that Ivana has seen in the infusion nonmarket. 11:39 How hospital spend affects wage increases affects patients and employees twice over. 12:04 EP373 with Cora Opsahl. 13:43 The second tell of the infusion nonmarket. 14:33 Take Two: EP398 with Jacob Asher, MD. 14:55 EP483 with Jonathan Baran. 16:15 Why networks are apathetic to this pricing discrepancy. 17:55 The factors that play into the nonmarket issue of infusion drug pricing variations. 18:26 EP475 with Peter Hayes. 19:18 EP370 with Erik Davis and Autumn Yongchu. 19:45 Are pricing discrepancies easy to spot? 22:38 Where we have power in a nonmarket situation. 23:22 A recap of the advice in the show so far. 23:39 EP493 with John Quinn. 23:41 EP496 with Mark Newman. 25:51 How you place pricing pressure on an entity. 28:47 EP482 with Preston Alexander. 29:34 How an improved market creates time for better care coordination. 30:52 EP486 with Stan Schwartz, MD. 33:23 The fourth part of the roadmap. 36:41 EP492 and EP490 with Sam Flanders, MD, and Shane Cerone. 36:49 Why serving the community and being fiscally responsible should go hand in hand. 38:05 EP500 with Stacey.   You can learn more at uhh.org and by connecting with Ivana on LinkedIn.   Ivana Krajcinovic, PhD, discusses #infusion #drugpricing on our #healthcarepodcast. #healthcare #podcast #financialhealth #commericalpayermarketplace #digitalhealth #healthcareleadership #healthcaretransformation #healthcareinnovation   Recent past interviews: Click a guest's name for their latest RHV episode!

Your story is not just your story. It's part of a larger narrative about whose voices are heard and whose are erased.I'm thrilled to have Janice Gassam Asare back on the podcast. She's an organizational psychologist, equity consultant, and author of the new book Rise and Resist - and this conversation went places I didn't expect.What struck me most is how Janice reframes resistance. Not as something dramatic or career-ending, but as the small, daily choices we make: amplifying someone else's idea in a meeting, speaking up when it's uncomfortable, refusing to let an important story quietly disappear. Those aren't small acts. They're how culture actually changes.We also get into what it takes to develop your voice when you've spent years being rewarded for staying in your lane. If that hits close to home, this episode is for you.Janice and I talk about:Why storytelling is preservation and power, not just communicationHow personal stories build connection that expertise alone never canThe everyday acts of resistance that shape workplaces and culture more than we realizeHow to find your voice when you were taught not to rock the boatWhat to do when you speak up and face criticism or pushback for itAbout My Guest: Janice Z. Gassam Asare, Ph.D. is a Ph.D.-trained organizational psychologist and the founder of BWG Business Solutions, an award-winning consultancy designed to help organizations create cultures built on equity.

From $500 to an 8-Figure Portfolio with Andres Bernal In this powerful episode of the REIGN: Real Estate Investor Growth Network podcast, host Jen Josey sits down with Dominican-born investor and entrepreneur Andres Bernal. From landing in New York with just $500 to building a $12 million real estate portfolio, Andres shares the raw, unfiltered truth about what it takes to succeed in real estate investing. His journey from professional tennis player to full-time investor is packed with grit, resilience, and strategic growth. Andres dives deep into his early days of house hacking with an FHA loan, navigating immigration challenges, and learning hard lessons through tenant issues, failed flips, and even a $107,000 loss on a single deal. Rather than quitting, he used those setbacks as tuition in the "school of real estate." He explains how discipline from professional sports translated into business success—and why coaching, mentorship, and relationships are critical to long-term growth. The conversation covers multiple investing strategies, including Section 8 rentals, student housing near universities like Yale University and University of New Haven, and scaling a flipping business in a competitive market. Andres also shares why he's laser-focused on entry-level homes under $450K, how he flips 25–30 houses per year with zero marketing spend, and why predictable profits beat flashy luxury projects every time. 00:00 Welcome to REIGN: What to Expect From the Show 00:41 Jen's "Badassery Bestowment": 5 Time Management Hacks for Investors 03:49 Meet Andres Bernal: From $500 to an 8-Figure Portfolio 05:28 Starting Over in New York: The First Job Breakthrough 07:54 Legacy Pressure & Choosing Your Own Path 08:51 Tennis Lessons That Translate to Real Estate (and a $107K Loss) 10:48 Why Every Investor Needs a Coach (Even If It Pays Off Later) 12:18 First Deal in 2016: FHA House Hack, Tenant Stories, and Early Lessons 15:01 How to Buy Real Estate With Little/No Money: Creativity, Partners & Seller Finance 17:36 Immigrant Challenges, Visas, and Building Trust in Business 21:24 The Messy Middle: Cash-for-Keys, Contractor Stress, and Outworking the Market 24:21 Section 8 Reality Check: Inspections, Rent Growth, and Common Myths 27:40 How to Place Section 8 Tenants + The "More Bedrooms" Rent Hack 29:55 Student Housing 101: Leasing Cycles, Parents Co-Sign, and Maintenance Strategy 32:05 One Lease, One Team: Avoiding Room-by-Room Drama in Student Rentals 33:31 Student Rentals: Regulation Risks, Vacancy, and Why Demand Still Wins 35:39 How to Pick a Winning Student Rental: Walkability + Enrollment Growth Data 37:30 Scaling Up Flips: 25+ Deals a Year and Why Liquidity Matters 40:59 Finding Deals & Defining the Buy Box: MLS vs Wholesalers vs Relationships 42:16 Why Entry-Level Flips Beat Luxury: Faster Sales, Lower Holding Costs, "Hotel" Deals 47:42 The $107K Loss Breakdown: Auction Mistakes, Barn Decision, and High Water Table Hell 51:18 Where to Follow Andres + The "BADASS" Lightning Round (Books, Advice, Drive, Goals) 56:11 Systems, Success, and Closing: Morning Routine, Team Leverage, Book Plug & Farewell 5 Key Takeaways from This Episode Start Small, Think Big: Andres house hacked his first triplex using an FHA loan and a small family loan—proving you don't need massive capital to get started in real estate investing. Relationships Beat Marketing: He flips 25–30 properties per year with $0 in marketing by nurturing agent and wholesaler relationships and consistently submitting 20–25 offers per week. Section 8 Is Not "Guaranteed" Money: While Section 8 can provide steady rent and annual increases, landlords must pass inspections and adapt to evolving regulations to protect cash flow. Student Housing Is a Hidden Goldmine: By targeting universities with growing enrollment and staying within walking distance, Andres creates high-demand rentals with parent co-signers and predictable income. Predictable > Flashy: Entry-level homes under $450K generate more consistent profits and faster exits than luxury flips in today's higher-interest-rate market. Guest Bio: Andres Bernal Andres Bernal is a Dominican-born real estate investor, entrepreneur, and founder of Sky Circle Homes. A former professional tennis player, Andres immigrated to the United States with just $500 and built an 8-figure real estate portfolio through house hacking, strategic flipping, and long-term rental acquisitions. Since purchasing his first property in 2016, Andres has completed more than 50 flips, owns 60+ rental units across Section 8, student housing, and traditional rentals, and has grown a $12 million portfolio with over $5 million in net equity. He is passionate about helping first-time investors, immigrant entrepreneurs, and aspiring real estate professionals build wealth through smart, relationship-driven investing.

What does it really mean to live a life worth living? And in a world that rewards achievement, speed, and measurable success, how do we make space for deeper questions about purpose, values, and what truly matters? In this episode, host Alita Guillen sits down with Dr. Matthew Croasmun, theologian, professor at Yale University, and coauthor of the New York Times bestselling book Life Worth Living: A Guide to What Matters Most. Together, they explore the big questions that shape our lives — from how we define meaning and success to why so many of us rarely pause to reflect on what we're actually living for. Dr. Croasmun shares insights from Yale's popular “Life Worth Living” course, where students wrestle with questions like: Who or what are we responsible to? What is worth hoping for? How do we respond to failure and suffering? And how can we articulate our core values in a world that often prioritizes productivity over character? They discuss the tension between “resume virtues” and “eulogy virtues,” why modern life makes these questions feel more urgent than ever, and how cultural shifts — from increasing diversity of perspectives to the impact of COVID — have changed how we think about stability, ambition, and the future. The conversation also explores the role of love, belonging, and community in shaping our sense of worth, and why knowing that we are loved can be more grounding than any achievement. Dr. Croasmun offers practical ways to begin reflecting on your own life, including conducting a “life inventory” of how you spend your time, attention, and resources. Whether you're navigating a transition, questioning your priorities, or simply curious about how to live more intentionally, this episode is an invitation to slow down, ask better questions, and consider what kind of life you truly want to build.

This episode centers on a conversation with sociologists Dr. Nicholas Wolfinger and Dr. Matthew McKeever about their book “Thanks for Nothing: The Economics of Single Motherhood since 1980” and what it reveals about poverty, race, and U.S. policy. The hosts discuss the core puzzle: even after four decades of gains in women's education and employment, single-mother families are still about five times more likely to be poor than two-parent families, just as they were in 1980. The guests revisit the 1965 Moynihan Report on the “Negro Family,” how it got tangled up with Oscar Lewis's “culture of poverty” thesis, and how both were weaponized in the culture wars. Wolfinger and McKeever stress that Moynihan's actual policy prescriptions were economic—jobs programs and large-scale public investment in Black communities—not moral lectures, but that critics (and later conservatives) recast his work as an attack on Black family culture. They trace a longer state preoccupation with “the family,” from Civil War–era pensions for Union widows and anxieties over divorce in Teddy Roosevelt's day to the backlash against desegregation and the way Brown v. Board rerouted structural segregation into school fights rather than housing policy. The conversation then turns to single motherhood as an economic condition rather than a moral category. The guests emphasize a simple but often ignored fact: one-earner families have fewer resources than two-earner families, and the majority of people in single-parent families are children. They dismantle the “deserving vs. undeserving poor” narrative that paints single mothers as irresponsible, sexually reckless, or “choosing” poverty, arguing instead that policy has systematically stripped support from families at the bottom while rewarding a subset of working poor through mechanisms like the Earned Income Tax Credit. Programs such as the EITC, they note, do get cash to low-income workers, but they also deepen inequality within the population of single mothers by boosting those who can maintain steady employment while leaving the least advantaged further behind. A recurring theme is the “fundamental attribution error”: the human tendency to attribute hardship to bad character instead of bad circumstances. The hosts use this to frame how conservative pundits like Ann Coulter talk about single mothers—blaming “promiscuity” and “choices” rather than the collapse of secure jobs, stagnant wages, and the cost of housing and childcare. Wolfinger and McKeever acknowledge that culture, neighborhood effects, and even heritable personality traits can play some role in intergenerational disadvantages, but they insist that the levers governments can actually pull are economic: wages, unions, transfers, and public goods like childcare and schooling. Nicholas H. Wolfinger is a professor of sociology at the University of Utah, specializing in family demography, marriage and divorce, and social inequality. Matthew McKeever is Professor of Sociology and Department Chair at Haverford. Prior to that, he was at Mount Holyoke College, Rice University, University of Houston, University of Kentucky, and Yale University.    Resources: Order the book: https://www.amazon.com/Thanks-Nothing-Economics-Single-Motherhood/dp/0199324328 Dr. Wolfinger webpage: http://www.nicholaswolfinger.com/ Dr. McKeever's webpage: https://www.haverford.edu/users/mmckeever Greg's Blog: http://zzs-blg.blogspot.com/ Pat's Substack: https://patcummings.substack.com/   #NicholasWolfinger#MatthewMcKeever#ThanksforNothing#singlemotherhood#economicsofsinglemotherhood#singlemothersandpoverty#childpoverty#familypolicy#MoynihanReport#cultureofpoverty#welfarereform#EarnedIncomeTaxCredit#childallowance#basicincome#neoliberalism#Reaganomics#BillClintonwelfarereform#unionsandwages#labormovement#genderandwork# #raceandclass#singleparentfamilies#singlemoms#publicpolicy#PatCummings#PatrickCummings#GregGodels#ZZBlog#ComingFromLeftField#ComingFromLeftFieldPodcast#zzblog#mltoday

Een VN-onderzoeksmissie concludeert dat er sterke aanwijzingen zijn voor genocide tijdens het beleg en de overname van de Soedanese stad El-Fasher. Een vooraanstaande onderzoeker van Yale University stelt dat we getuigen zijn van de grootste volkerenmoord sinds de Tweede Wereldoorlog, die we hebben zien aankomen. En zegt dat het conflict niet vergeten is, maar wordt genegeerd door de internationale gemeenschap.

How does listening to the Qur'an differ from reading it? What does it mean to approach the Qur'an not with your mind but with your whole existence?In this episode of Thinking Islam, Dr Abdolkarim Soroush proposes an existential encounter with the Qur'an, one that asks us to set aside our assumptions and approach it not as a book of law or philosophy but as maw'iẓa (admonition) that speaks to the whole being. This conversation explores the difference between reading and listening, why Rumi's Mathnawi is called the Persian Qur'an, and what it means to have a pure heart as a precondition for understanding the Qur'an. We delve into how kufr in the Qur'an is not about non-belief but about arrogance before truth, and why, as Dr Soroush tells us, the companion according to Sufis is everything.Dr Abdolkarim Soroush is a distinguished philosopher of religion and a leading voice in Islamic intellectual reform. A Visiting Scholar at the University of Maryland and former Professor at the University of Tehran, he has held visiting positions at Harvard, Princeton, and Yale Universities. Dr Soroush is renowned for his influential work on prophetic experience and his contributions to contemporary Islamic philosophy and Qur'anic hermeneutics.Audio Chapters:0:00 - Highlights01:30 - Relation between Qur'an & Its Reader07:20 - Uneven depth of the Qur'an13:09 - Reading vs Listening to Qur'an24:44 - Existential Reading of the Qur'an32:36 - Losing the Sense of Maw'iza in Translation39:33 - Rumi's Mathnawi: A Persian Qur'an44:50 - Pure Heart & Qur'an49:17 - Love & Companionship 55:19 - Is Qur'an not a Kitab?58:32 - Thinking Islam Question

In a special edition of the new Worldviews series, Brendan Graham Dempsey asks Jim about his life and worldview using a faith development interview. They discuss Jim's life chapters from growing up through becoming a complexity guy and GameB advocate, his age 11 epiphany that religion is bullshit after researching world religions at the library, the formative influence of his wife and parents who built lives from poverty, his realization that exponential growth on a finite planet driven by advertising and economic systems is destructive, understanding the limits of knowledge through complexity science and rejecting naive Newtonianism, his three core values of human well-being, ecological richness, and preserving humanity's path to bring the universe to life, the belief that humans may be the only general intelligence in the universe, the sacred as high-dimensional experiences that can't be explained scientifically, the importance of humility given how often we're wrong, the decision-making method of studying enough for a bullshitter's understanding then walking until reaching a conclusion, utilitarian deontology, human life as a leaf node on the tree of emergence, language and science as major transitions with AI as a potential third, disbelief in the supernatural, explaining evil through game theory, psychopathy as evil by nature, humans as mesoscale entities, a universe fine-tuned for emergence, and much more.

For good or ill, the post World War II era built by the Baby Boomers seems to be rapidly coming to an end.  But what will replace it?  What might be done to prevent global conflicts and bloodshed as the old order begins to break down?  And what should younger conservatives seek to conserve in this era of chaotic change?  Joining Saving Elephants host Josh Lewis is Director of Research at the Danube Institute, Calum Nicholson to share how the Anglosphere often misunderstands the way the rest of the world thinks and how that might help us better prepare for what's ahead. About Calum Nicholson From the University of Cambridge bio With a background in social anthropology and human geography, Dr Calum T. M. Nicholson has conducted original research that reconsiders how we understand the societal implications of climate change, notably in the context of its relationship to human migration and international development. A former development consultant and Parliamentary researcher, at PACE Dr Nicholson teaches courses on international development, international migration, and the politics of climate change. Dr Nicholson also teaches a well-received course on the political, cultural, and historical significance of social media. He is currently Director of Research at the Danube Institute, and was formerly Director of the Climate Policy Institute. His new book is entitled Climate Migration: critical perspectives for law, policy, and research.   Introducing Conservative Cagematches Ever since Leo Strauss published his magnum opus Natural Right and History, which ends by heavily implying Edmund Burke opened the door for the evils of historicism in the modern world, a great fissure in conservative nerddom erupted between those who align with either titan. Were Strauss' criticism of Burke warranted? Did Burke disavow natural rights and pave the way for the evils of authoritarianism, fascism, Marxism, and progressivism to come? Does a careful, esoteric reading of Natural Right and History reveal the Strauss secret family chili recipe? On Wednesday, March 4 at 6PM EST / 5PM CST, Saving Elephants will assemble an all-star panel to answer these questions and more. Representing Edmund Burke: Greg Collins of Yale University and Lauren Hall of the Rochester Institute of Technology Representing Leo Strauss: Steve Hayward of Pepperdine and the international woman of mystery, Lucretia of the University of Arizona You can watch the livestream on YouTube or Facebook  

Scott Kaufman is a psychologist, coach, professor, keynote speaker, and best-selling author. He is a professor of psychology at Columbia University and director of the Center for Human Potential. He also hosts The Psychology Podcast which has received over 30 million downloads and is widely considered among the top  psychology podcasts in the world. Scott's writing has appeared in The Atlantic, Scientific American, Psychology Today, and Harvard Business Review, and he is the author and editor of 11 books. In his most recent book Rise Above: Overcome a Victim Mindset, Empower Yourself, and Realize Your Full Potential, he explores the limiting beliefs and widespread anxiety that puts people in boxes, lowers expectations, and holds them back. In addition to teaching at Columbia, Scott has also been a professor at the University of Pennsylvania and NYU. Scott received a B.S. in psychology and human computer interaction from Carnegie Mellon, an M. Phil in experimental psychology from the University of Cambridge under a Gates Cambridge Scholarship, and a Ph.D. in cognitive psychology from Yale University. In this episode we discuss the following: Scott's definition of intelligence: the dynamic interplay of engagement and abilities in the pursuit of goals. When we give people a chance to go deep into an area that they love, over a long period of time, they can develop expertise and brain structures that can override some of our IQ limitations. The thing that surprised Scott most as he researched intelligence was just how predictive IQ is. Scott thought he was going to be on a vendetta against IQ but ended up falling in love with the science of IQ, intelligence, and the brain. Differences in ability are both natural and valuable, and recognizing them—rather than denying them—creates better paths for growth and contribution. Unlocking our potential requires intellectual honesty, patience, and environments that allow passion and skill to reinforce one another over time.  

This episode is brought to you by the BISA Environment and Climate Politics Working Group. African Climate Futures (Oxford UP, 2025) shows how climate-changed futures are imagined in Africa and by Africans, and how these future visions shape political debates and struggles in the present. Scientific climate scenarios forecast bleak futures, with increased droughts, floods, lethal heatwaves, sea level rises, declining crop yields, and greater exposure to vector-borne diseases. Yet, African climate futures could also encompass energy transitions and socio-economic revolutions, transformed political agency and human subjectivities, and radically reparative more-than-human climate politics. At the heart of the book is an original and interdisciplinary approach. It studies official climate policy strategies and fictional texts side-by-side, as ecopolitical imaginaries that envision low-carbon, climate-changed futures, and narrate pathways from 'here' to 'there'.

In this episode of Hunger for Wholeness, Sr. Ilia Delio speaks with Nicholas Hedlund, PhD—a philosopher, metatheorist, and contemplative practitioner whose work explores spirituality, science, and worldview transformation.Ilia begins with the simple question: What is metatheory? Nick traces the thread that drew him into big-picture thinking—an early dissatisfaction with surface-level responses to ecological crisis, and a deeper inquiry into root causes: who we take ourselves to be, what we take the natural world to be, and how our relationship to the sacred shapes the world we build. Together, Ilia and Nick explore the metacrisis (or polycrisis) as more than a collection of competing emergencies. ABOUT NICHOLAS HEDLUND“Humanity is not suffering from a crisis of information but a crisis of integration.”Nicholas Hedlund, Ph.D., is a philosopher, metatheorist, and contemplative practitioner whose work explores the intersection of spirituality, science, and worldview transformation. He is the director of Eudaimonia Institute and director of research at the Institute for Applied Metatheory, and serves as Editor-in-Chief of Integration: The Journal of Big Picture Theory and Practice.Nicholas developed visionary realism, an integrative philosophical framework drawing from critical realism, integral theory, and complexity science to illuminate deeper structures of reality and help navigate the global metacrisis. He earned his Ph.D. from University College London, where he studied under Roy Bhaskar and Arthur Petersen, and he was also an exchange scholar at Yale University.He is the author and editor of Metatheory for the Twenty-First Century and Big Picture Perspectives on Planetary Flourishing, and his work has appeared in peer-reviewed journals including Zygon and Environmental Science & Policy. He is currently completing two new books further developing visionary realism and its implications for civilizational transformation.Alongside his scholarly work, Nicholas is an APPA-certified philosophical counselor and a spiritual director-in-training, supporting individuals in exploring meaning, inner transformation, and spiritual experience. A long-time contemplative practitioner and musician, he is deeply interested in the resonance between sound, consciousness, and human evolution.Nicholas teaches in the Integral Noetic Sciences Department at the California Institute for Human Science, offering courses in integral philosophy, consciousness studiesOn March 17, the Center for Christogenesis welcomes back the Rev.

This episode is brought to you by the BISA Environment and Climate Politics Working Group. African Climate Futures (Oxford UP, 2025) shows how climate-changed futures are imagined in Africa and by Africans, and how these future visions shape political debates and struggles in the present. Scientific climate scenarios forecast bleak futures, with increased droughts, floods, lethal heatwaves, sea level rises, declining crop yields, and greater exposure to vector-borne diseases. Yet, African climate futures could also encompass energy transitions and socio-economic revolutions, transformed political agency and human subjectivities, and radically reparative more-than-human climate politics. At the heart of the book is an original and interdisciplinary approach. It studies official climate policy strategies and fictional texts side-by-side, as ecopolitical imaginaries that envision low-carbon, climate-changed futures, and narrate pathways from 'here' to 'there'. It discusses net zero strategies from Ethiopia, The Gambia, Nigeria, South Africa, and Zimbabwe and draws on postcolonial, feminist, and queer theory, arguing that Africanfuturist climate fiction can inspire more radical, reparative, more-than-human ecopolitical imaginaries.

How much trouble could a wind farm cause? Turns out, a lot. When Rick Jarrett decided to capitalize on strong gusts around his land in Big Timber, Montana, the prospect of a wind farm in the shadow of the Crazy Mountains upset hyper-wealthy neighbors who were more concerned about property aesthetics than multi-generation locals looking to make a living. It also caught the attention of Crow Tribe activists, for whom the Crazy Mountains held deep cultural significance. In this week's episode of A Book with Legs Smead Capital Management CEO and Portfolio Manager Cole Smead is joined by Amy Gamerman, author of “The Crazies: The Cattleman, the Wind Prospector, and a War Out West." Gamerman has written about real estate and culture for The Wall Street Journal for more than two decades. Her work has earned multiple awards from the National Association of Real Estate Editors and has appeared in Vogue, Redbook, and Departures. She attended Yale University and King's College, Cambridge.

Essayist and fiction writer Erica Stern on writing hybrid nonfiction, weaving memoir with research and a ghost-story thread, and finding a publishing home for genre-defying work.   You'll learn:What “hybrid nonfiction” can look like when memoir, research, and a fictional thread are all working toward one emotional truth.Ways to make a genre-bending draft feel cohesive, even when it's built from multiple modes and timelines.How reverse outlining can help you figure out what each section is really doing, and tighten the book's throughline in revision.Why “moving the pieces around” for a long time can be part of the process when the structure has to be discovered, not imposed.A mindset shift for writers making unconventional work: follow what the project needs first, before you worry about outcome or category.How to treat “weirdness” as an asset (not a liability) when the form is doing meaning, not just style.Practical publishing encouragement for genre-defying books: small presses can be a strong fit, and there's a growing audience for hybrid forms.What it can look like to publish without chasing “bestseller” logic, and instead focus on reaching the right readers with the best version of the book.Why writing “for the market” isn't the only path to publication—and how commitment to the story can be what ultimately helps it find a home.  Resources & Links:

"How can you not be a populist in this day and age?" — Hélène LandemoreIn February 2020, The New Yorker profiled a Yale professor making the case for citizen rule. Six years later, that political scientist, Hélène Landemore, has a new book entitled Politics Without Politicians arguing that politics should be "an amateur sport instead of an expert's job" and that randomly selected citizen assemblies should replace representative democracy. Landemore calls it "jury duty on steroids."Landemore draws on her experience observing France's Citizens' Conventions on both climate and end-of-life issues to now direct Connecticut's first state-level citizen assembly. We discuss why the Greeks used lotteries instead of elections, what G.K. Chesterton meant by imagining democracy as a "jolly hostess," and why she has sympathy for the anti-Federalists who lost the argument about the best form of American government to Madison. When I ask if she's comfortable being called a populist, she doesn't flinch: "If the choice is between populist and elitist, I don't know how you can not be a populist." From the Damon Wells'58 Professor of Political Science at Yale, this might sound a tad suicidal. At least professionally. But Landemore's jolly argument for a politics without politicians is the type of message that will win elections in our populist age.About the GuestHélène Landemore is the Damon Wells'58 Professor of Political Science at Yale University. She is the author of Politics Without Politicians: The Case for Citizen Rule (2026) and Open Democracy: Reinventing Popular Rule for the Twenty-First Century (2020).ReferencesThinkers discussed:●      G.K. Chesterton was the British essayist who defined democracy as an "attempt, like that of a jolly hostess, to bring the shy people out"—a vision Landemore finds more inspiring than technical definitions about elite selection.●      James Madison and the Federalists designed a republic meant to filter popular passions through elected representatives; Landemore has sympathy for their anti-Federalist opponents who wanted legislatures that looked like "a mini-portrait of the people."●      Alexis de Tocqueville warned about the dangers of trusting ordinary people—a caution Landemore pushes back against, arguing that voters respond to the limited choices they're given.●      Max Weber wrote "Politics as a Vocation" (1919), arguing that politics requires a special calling; Landemore questions whether it should be a profession at all.●      Jean-Jacques Rousseau and his concept of the general will has been blamed for totalitarian impulses; Landemore rejects the comparison, insisting her vision preserves liberal constitutional frameworks.●      Joseph Schumpeter defined democracy as "a method for elite selection"—precisely the technocratic framing Landemore wants to overturn.Citizen assembly experiments mentioned:●      The Irish Citizens' Assembly on abortion (2016-2017) is often cited as proof that randomly selected citizens can deliberate on divisive issues and reach workable conclusions.●      The French Citizens' Convention on End-of-Life (2022-2023) found common ground between pro- and anti-euthanasia factions by focusing on palliative care—a case Landemore observed firsthand.●      The French Citizens' Convention for Climate (2019-2020) brought 150 randomly selected citizens together to propose climate policy; participants were paid 84-95 Euros per day.●      The Connecticut citizen assembly on local public services, planned for summer 2026, will be the first state-level citizen assembly in the United States. Landemore is directing its design.Also mentioned:●      Zephyr Teachout is the left-wing populist who called Landemore a "reluctant populist."●      Oliver Hart (Harvard) and Luigi Zingales (Chicago) are economists working with Landemore to apply the citizen assembly model to corporate governance reform.●      The Council of 500 was the Athenian deliberative body whose members were selected by lottery, with a rotating chair appointed daily.●      John Stuart Mill is the liberal theorist whose emphasis on minority rights raises the question of whether Landemore's majoritarianism is illiberal. She says no.About Keen On AmericaNobody asks more awkward questions than the Anglo-American writer and filmmaker Andrew Keen. In Keen On America, Andrew brings his pointed Transatlantic wit to making sense of the United States—hosting daily interviews about the history and future of this now venerable Republic.

Host Jun Wei Lee speaks with Hélène Landemore about her book, Politics Without Politicians: The Case for Citizen Rule (Penguin, 2026). An acclaimed political theorist, Professor Landemore has spent her career trying to understand the advantages of democracy, what makes it function, and how to make it work better. In her most recent book, Landemore puts forward a radical proposal. Democracy doesn't need politicians: ordinary people can govern much better. In this NBN episode, Landemore analyzes how a lottery system designed to select everyday people to govern—not as career politicians but as temporary stewards of the common good. Drawing from ancient Athenian practices of democracy and her firsthand experience in contemporary citizens' assemblies, Landemore explains that when regular citizens come together to make important political decisions, they make better decisions, develop meaningful bonds of community, and even convince experts that self-governing assemblies are viable ways of doing politics. This is not a book about what's wrong—it's a manifesto for what's possible. If you've ever felt powerless, Politics Without Politicians will show you how “We the People” take back democracy. Hélène Landemore is a political theorist and the Damon Wells '58 Professor of Political Science at Yale University. Jun Wei Lee is a 4th-year undergraduate student of History and Philosophy at the University of Notre Dame. He works on the international legal regulation of migrant labor in the nineteenth-century British Empire. Learn more about your ad choices.

Commander Drew was so impressed with the cleanliness of one of the ships that he was reminded of being forced to clean the floor with a tooth brush decades ago when he was working his way through Navy Aviation Officers Candidate School.Is there any truth to the phrase, “curiosity killed the cat”? No, it's just a proverb warning of potential trouble for probing too deeply into something; likely coming from a criminal or bad person somewhere. But the use of natural curiosity to delve deeper into a new area of interest is definitely worth doing if you want to grow as a person.Uninformed people oftentimes just need to get new information.

The early Christian world was awash with the language of 'belief' (pistis in Greek, fides in Latin). But what does it really mean to 'believe'? Today, we often use the word refer to an assent to a set of propositions: someone might believe that Jesus rose from the dead, or that he was born of a virgin. But is this what the language of belief meant to the early Christians, within the wider Roman world?To unpack the lexis of 'belief', Helen and Lloyd take a trip in the Time Machine with Teresa Morgan, McDonald Agape Professor of New Testament and Early Christianity at Yale University. Teresa is the author of Roman Faith and Christian Faith: Pistis and Fides in the Early Roman Empire and Early Churches (OUP, 2015), which suggests that belief is a more relational term than we tend to assume. It refers to a 'loyalty' and 'allegiance', rooted in social practices of trust.SUPPORT BIBLICAL TIME MACHINEIf you enjoy the podcast, please (pretty please!) consider supporting the show through the Time Travellers Club, our Patreon.
