Prince Andrew became the most disliked member of the British royal family through a long collapse in public trust driven overwhelmingly by his relationship with Jeffrey Epstein and his handling of the allegations made by Virginia Giuffre. His disastrous 2019 BBC Newsnight interview intensified the damage when he defended his continued association with Epstein, offered explanations that were widely mocked and showed little apparent concern for Epstein's victims. Andrew subsequently withdrew from public duties, lost his military affiliations and royal patronages, and settled Giuffre's civil lawsuit in 2022 without admitting liability. Rather than repairing his reputation, his repeated refusals to accept meaningful responsibility created the impression that he considered himself a victim of the scandal rather than a senior royal whose judgment had brought disgrace upon the monarchy.The damage became so severe that Andrew ceased to be merely unpopular and became politically and institutionally toxic. Each new disclosure about his communications with Epstein, his financial arrangements or his efforts to preserve his royal privileges reinforced the belief that wealth and status had protected him from proper scrutiny. By early 2026, YouGov found that only 3 percent of Britons viewed him positively, while 90 percent held an unfavorable opinion, placing him far below every other prominent royal. His downfall reflects more than public anger over one friendship. It represents accumulated disgust over perceived arrogance, evasiveness, entitlement and the failure to provide convincing answers about his place within Epstein's world.

Support Humanism Now & Join Our Community!"I don't think that we have any solid evidence of a religious revival underway in England, or for that matter, anywhere else." — David VoasIn April 2025, the Bible Society published a report claiming church attendance in England had surged by more than 50% since 2018, with young men's churchgoing up fivefold. It made national headlines. A year later, both YouGov and the Bible Society retracted it. This episode unpacks what actually went wrong: bots and bogus respondents in online survey panels, why the data never supported the story, and what decades of solid evidence tell us instead about religious decline in Britain.Our guest is Dr. David Voas, Emeritus Professor of Social Science at UCL, where he led the Social Research Institute from 2016 to 2020. A quantitative social scientist, he has spent his career studying religious change in modern societies, and his TEDx talk, "Why There Is No Way Back for Religion in the West," has been viewed nearly two million times.In this conversation we cover:How AI chatbots, survey farming and bogus respondents undermined the survey data, and why this is an industry-wide problem, not a one-offThe three ways sociologists actually measure religiosity — identity, practice and belief — and why they don't always move togetherWhy secularisation is a generational process that plays out over centuries, and what fills the space religion leaves behindLINKS & REFERENCESDavid VoasUCL profile: https://profiles.ucl.ac.uk/56605-david-voasTEDx talk, "Why There Is No Way Back for Religion in the West": https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YtAR_OGzlcg"Why Humanism Is the Future" — Humanists UK Convention 2023: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FfI7VgkDFMg"Is there really a religious revival in England?

We take a political vibe check on North Carolina by examining what the latest Catawba-YouGov poll shows. We'll separate signal from noise while discussing what these polls really tell us about the state's electorate as another consequential election season gets underway.

It's been a rollercoaster 24 hours for Nigel Farage and Reform – a by-election called, a major party boycott, and now the spectre of a two horse race against Count Binface. So will his high risk play pay off as he takes his case to the people? And what do the voters of Clacton really think about it?This podcast was brought to you thanks to the support of readers of The Times and The Sunday Times.

You’re listening to American Ground Radio with Stephen Parr and Louis R. Avallone. This is the full show for July 7, 2026. We open with a story that's more than just an economic migration — it's a cultural sorting happening across America in real time. Conservatives are leaving blue states for red states chasing economic freedom, while nonprofits in Seattle are reporting they've helped more than 1,500 transgender people relocate there since the 2024 election — more than 20 times the number they helped before it. We make the distinction: conservatives making the move don't need charities to pay for it, they just do it. And we connect both migrations to the same underlying truth — people are voting with their feet, and they're moving toward communities that reflect how they want to live and away from places that make them feel legally, culturally, or politically out of place. In our Top 3 Things You Need to Know, the U.S. relaunched strikes against Iran after Iran attacked three tankers in the Strait of Hormuz — with a Pentagon spokesperson telling CNN simply, this is punishment, it won't be over for a bit. Iran then had the audacity to call the reimposition of oil sanctions a violation of the ceasefire agreement — the same ceasefire they violated by setting three ships on fire. Then former Tallahassee mayor and 2018 Florida Democratic gubernatorial nominee Andrew Gillum — who nearly beat Ron DeSantis by less than half a point — was arrested in Daphne, Alabama after being spotted driving erratically, with officers finding marijuana and methamphetamine in his vehicle. And the former mayor of Jackson, Mississippi pled guilty to bribery — this from a mayor who presided over a city that went without water for at least one full month every year of his tenure. We also address Marjorie Taylor Greene's suggestion that the multiple sexual assault allegations against Maine Democratic Senate nominee Graham Plattner — the man with the Nazi SS tattoo — might be a political hit job. We make the distinction between the timing of Politico's publication, which may have been orchestrated around the July 13th ballot deadline, and the underlying allegations themselves, which were there long before anyone ran a story. Not every damaging allegation is a political hit job. Sometimes people just do bad things. Our American Mamas Teri Netterville and Kimberly Burleson share what liberal friends actually say about 2028 when nobody's performing for a crowd. Teri's Danish-American friend in Wyoming — who can't stand Trump — says when asked who she'd want as next president, the answer wasn't AOC, wasn't Gavin Newsom, and definitely wasn't Kamala Harris. It was Marco Rubio. And she says all her liberal friends feel the same way — presidential, articulate, someone who could actually bring people together. We discuss what a Trump-Vance-Rubio sequential presidency could mean historically, and compare it to Jefferson, Madison, and Monroe's consecutive terms that effectively ended the Federalist Party. We discuss whether Justices Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito should consider strategic retirements before President Trump leaves office to lock in conservative influence on the Supreme Court for the next four decades — and we make the case that while winning elections is the cleaner solution, two and a half years is not a long runway if something changes in November. In our Digging Deep segment, we run through a YouGov poll on flag favorability by party — and the results are genuinely stunning. For Republicans, the American flag comes in at a net positive of 97%, followed by the Betsy Ross flag, the Trump flag, the thin blue line flag, and the Israeli flag. For Democrats, the most popular flag is the Black Lives Matter flag at plus 69% — beating the American flag at plus 62%. Democrats also rate the flags of Ukraine and Mexico more favorably than the Betsy Ross flag — the very first symbol of this nation. We connect it to Sunny Hostin's claim that seeing an American flag in a neighborhood makes her feel unsafe — and to the FEMA report that Biden administration workers were instructed to skip homes flying American flags because they were likely Trump supporters. We also cover an ICE officer who shot and killed an illegal alien in Houston who allegedly used his vehicle as a weapon against federal agents during a targeted enforcement operation — and we make the only point that needs to be made: if you try to run over a law enforcement officer with a two-ton vehicle, the officer has the right to defend his life. The left will ask whether the officer should have been there in the first place. They won't ask whether the illegal alien should have been here in the first place. For our Bright Spot, a left-leaning author in a left-leaning publication — Washington Monthly — writes that despite his deep opposition to Donald Trump, he is still hopeful about America because of how far the country has come since the Bicentennial in 1976. Life expectancy is up six and a half years. Heart disease deaths are down nearly 60%. Cancer deaths are down more than a third. The air is dramatically cleaner. The Chicago River — which hospitalized his sister after she fell in during 1972 — now has people swimming in it on the Fourth of July. Car crash fatalities have been cut in half. Even the murder rate is down 50% over 50 years. We take it as a bright spot — not because we needed to be convinced, but because a leftist went looking for objective evidence and found it anyway. And we close with Andres Robles, who turned eight years old and celebrated at Disneyland — where he was greeted at the train platform on Main Street USA as the one billionth visitor to enter the park since it opened on July 17th, 1955. His family unveiled an updated sign reading population one billion and received a VIP tour. May your pursuit of happiness bring you joy.

Vous aimez notre peau de caste ? Soutenez-nous ! https://www.lenouvelespritpublic.fr/abonnementUne émission de Philippe Meyer, enregistrée au studio l'Arrière-boutique le 26 juin 2026.Avec cette semaine :Antoine Foucher, président de la société de conseil Quintet, spécialiste des questions sociales.Lucile Schmid, présidente de La Fabrique écologique et membre du comité de rédaction de la revue Esprit.Lionel Zinsou, ancien Premier ministre du Bénin et président de la fondation Terra Nova.LA CANICULE, SUJET POLITIQUE ?Le 17 juin, quelques jours avant le nouvel épisode caniculaire, le ministre de la Ville et du Logement, Vincent Jeanbrun, a présenté un plan « endurance » pour l'adaptation à la hausse des températures, alors qu'un tiers des logements est constitué de bouilloires thermiques. Selon lui, « la canicule n'est pas une question météorologique ou climatique, c'est désormais une question de justice sociale ». Intervenant aux côtés du ministre du Logement, la ministre de la Transition écologique, Monique Barbut a reconnu que la France souffre d'un « grand retard collectif » tout mettant en avant trois axes : « Remettre la nature dans les villes pour les rafraîchir » et faire des quartiers prioritaires « des précurseurs de la transformation écologique des territoires » ; « encourager les solutions efficaces pour limiter la surchauffe des bâtiments », comme les volets, en demandant par exemple aux bailleurs sociaux un recensement des bâtiments sans occultation des baies vitrées ; et développer « des solutions performantes pour permettre le rafraîchissement des bâtiments » avec « d'ici à septembre » un tarif réduit de TVA à 5,5 % pour les climatiseurs réversibles, décidé en loi de finances 2026.« Aucune annonce réelle », a cinglé la Fondation pour le logement des défavorisés (ex-fondation Abbé Pierre) qui a annoncé qu'elle s'associait à un recours en justice, lancé en 2025 par des citoyens et les ONG de « L'affaire du siècle » qui accusent l'Etat de manquer à son obligation de protéger la population des impacts du réchauffement climatique. Associations et climatologues déplorent une politique qui met l'accent sur la gestion de crise plutôt que sur une véritable adaptation. Pourtant, en 2023, pour faire face aux canicules répétées, la France s'était dotée d'un plan d'adaptation, une feuille de route censée préparer le pays à un réchauffement de 4 °C d'ici à 2.100, avec une batterie de mesures sur les logements, les exploitations agricoles ou les transports afin de se préparer à une hausse des températures de 4 °C en 2.100. Jugé insuffisant, y compris par le Haut Conseil pour le climat, le plan dispose de peu de moyens financiers. Au cours de ces dernières années, des outils pour s'adapter au changement climatique comme le fonds vert ont été fortement rabotés dans un contexte budgétaire contraint : la dotation de ce dispositif très prisé des élus locaux est passée de 2,4 milliards d'euros en 2024 à près de 840 millions d'euros en 2026.LE BREXIT 10 ANS APRÈSÀ la veille du dixième anniversaire du vote en faveur du Brexit, le premier ministre britannique travailliste, Keir Starmer, a été contraint à la démission, deux ans à peine après une nette victoire électorale. Si la décision prise, le 23 juin 2016, par une majorité (51,9 %) des électeurs britanniques de quitter l'Union européenne n'est pas directement la cause de la disgrâce de M. Starmer, elle a contribué à créer un climat économique et politique dégradé.Les études sur l'impact du Brexit sur l'économie vont toutes dans le même sens. Celle publiée en novembre 2025 par le National Bureau of Economic Research, un groupe de réflexion américain, a estimé « qu'à la date de 2025, le processus du Brexit a réduit le PIB britannique de 6 % à 8 %, l'investissement de 12 % à 18 %, l'emploi de 3 % à 4 % et la productivité de 3 % à 4 % ». D'après un récent sondage du think tank European Council on Foreign Relations, les Britanniques estiment que le Brexit a eu un impact négatif sur presque tous les sujets : le coût de la vie (66 %), l'économie (65 %), les perspectives des jeunes (57 %) ou encore l'immigration clandestine (56 %). Interrogés sur les effets positifs du Brexit, la réponse la plus donnée par les Britanniques est : « je ne sais pas ».Dans ce contexte, les termes de « Breturn » ou « Breunion » ont surgi ces dernières semaines. Une majorité de Britanniques (55 %) se déclarent favorables à un retour de leur pays parmi les membres de l'UE, quand un tiers (34 %) s'y opposent, d'après YouGov. Toutefois, les Britanniques favorables à un retour du Royaume-Uni dans l'UE tomberaint à 35 % si le pays ne pouvait plus bénéficier de ses dérogations antérieures et devait donc adopter la monnaie unique et participer à l'espace Schengen. Un retour à l'Europe des 28 ne semble donc pas se dessiner. Bruxelles et Londres avancent plutôt depuis plusieurs mois vers un rapprochement. Un sommet entre les deux parties doit avoir lieu le 22 juillet prochain dans la capitale européenne. Ce serait le deuxième après un précédent tenu en mai 2025. Reste à savoir si ce rendez-vous, annoncé la semaine dernière, sera maintenu à la suite de la démission de Keir Starmer. Andy Burnham, nouvel élu de la région de Manchester et favori pour le remplacer à la tête du Parti travailliste et du même coup à Downing Street, ne cache pas qu'il considère le Brexit comme une erreur sans prôner un retour dans l'Union.Le flou entretenu par les brexiters concernant le régime qui suivrait la sortie de l'UE a été pour beaucoup dans le chaos de l'après-23 juin, et notamment la succession rapide de six premiers ministres en moins d'une décennie. Surtout, le Brexit a ouvert un boulevard à une extrême droite contre laquelle on avait imaginé le Royaume-Uni vacciné. La figure de proue en est Nigel Farage – chef, avant le référendum de 2016, du Parti pour l'indépendance du Royaume-Uni, et aujourd'hui de Reform UK, parti actuellement en tête des sondages britanniques.Chaque semaine, Philippe Meyer anime une conversation d'analyse politique, argumentée et courtoise, sur des thèmes nationaux et internationaux liés à l'actualité.

In March 2026, the Bible Society quietly pulled their revival report. YouGov admitted "human error." Within weeks, both stories disappeared from the news cycle. But the data they walked back is still sitting there — and it doesn't say what they wanted it to say. Why are powerful institutions retracting evidence of spiritual awakening right now? Lance Wallnau breaks down what the suppressed numbers actually show, why young men are flooding into historic Christianity, and what's driving a conversion surge nobody in media will cover. Plus: two guests on the front lines of taking the kingdom into schools and government. In this episode: * YouGov's "human error" and the Bible Society retraction — what really happened * 71% of young adults say they believe in something spiritual beyond the natural * Youth for Christ: teens reporting dreams of Jesus at unprecedented rates * Catholic converts up 38% year-over-year — and the cultural force driving it * Why the skinny-jeans pastor can't compete with hierarchy, suffering, and the Jordan Peterson effect * Keir Starmer resigns hours after Trump calls him an "incompetent loser" — the Trump Effect goes global * Rocky Malloy (National School Chaplain Association) on getting 49,000 trained chaplains into 41,000 schools — and why your district can hire one right now * Texas is paying schools to use a Bible-inclusive curriculum — and 27 states are following * David Pautsch — Gold Star father, congressional candidate, and what he learned meeting 24,000 voters face to face on faith, elections, and running as an unapologetic Christian The reports were retracted. The evidence wasn't.

The ongoing cost-of-living crisis is forcing people to make a number of difficult choices. Heating the house or flat and putting food on the table are getting more and more expensive, meaning there's less money left over for luxuries. And it seems that has started extending to basic hygiene products too. Findings from a YouGov study commissioned by UK charity The Hygiene Bank were released in October 2022, estimating that 3.2 million Brits were in hygiene poverty.  What kind of hygiene products are we talking about? What are the consequences? How can we help people affected by hygiene poverty? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions!

Hour 1 of the Marc Cox Morning Show comes out swinging and never lets up. Tucker Carlson has publicly abandoned the Republican Party over Israel — and Marc and Kim aren't buying his moral high ground for a second. The Iran deal critics are screaming into a YouGov poll while a real American hero, former hostage Rocky Sickman, puts the entire debate in perspective from 444 days of torture and captivity. Then Marc shifts his fire to Missouri's ballot — where Soros-funded groups, Planned Parenthood, and the Missouri Realtors Association are spending millions to keep the Constitution wide open for radical hijacking. Amendment 4 is your one shot to stop it, and the Marc Cox Morning Show voter guide is coming this week. Kim St. Onge brings the heat on Tucker's Israel obsession, third-party fantasy voters, and a Democrat 2028 field now apparently led by green algae. This hour has it all — and the rest of the show is just getting warmed up. Hashtags: #MarcCoxMorningShow #Hour1 #TuckerCarlson #Amendment4 #MissouriPolitics #RockySickman #IranDeal #KimOnAWhim #ElectionIntegrity #VoteYes #MissouriConstitution #ConservativeRadio #MarcCox #KimStOnge #StLouis

Four hours. Zero punches pulled. The Marc Cox Morning Show delivers one of its most explosive broadcasts of the year and not a single story lands without consequence. Tucker Carlson torches his 35-year Republican career over an Israel obsession Marc Cox calls exactly what it is — anti-Semitism dressed up as principle. The Iran MOU critics are screaming into YouGov polls while a real American hero, former hostage Rocky Sickman, reminds everyone what 444 days of torture at Iranian hands actually looks like. Missouri conservatives get a masterclass on why Amendment 4 and Amendment 5 are the most important votes they'll cast this year — as Soros-funded groups, Planned Parenthood, and the Missouri Realtors Association pour millions into lies designed to keep the Constitution wide open for radical hijacking. Former Missouri Senator John Lamping joins to make the definitive case and call out conservatives sabotaging their own cause from within. The St. Louis Morning Brief covers a firefighter caught on camera doing the unthinkable at Lambert Airport, MLB's stunning double standard on Christian expression, and Pride Fest curfew chaos erupting in the Grove. Fox and Friends First co-anchor Todd Piro calls in live from a Fox News makeup room with the heartbreaking latest on the Nancy Guthrie kidnapping. It's 2A Tuesday with Mark Walters of Armed American Radio breaking down the Supreme Court's landmark nine to zero Hamani ruling, a Fifth Circuit victory for silencer owners, and the left's blueprint to destroy the Bruin precedent the moment they retake power. Kim St. Onge sounds the alarm on Brazilian parents jailed for homeschooling without DEI — and warns Christian families in America that they are already in the crosshairs. University of Minnesota law professor Ilan Wurman delivers a stunning constitutional autopsy — from New Deal power grabs to rogue district judges acting as an unchecked council of revision the Founders explicitly rejected. Ryan Wiggins brings the hard data showing Democrats hemorrhaging 275,000 voters in key swing districts, exposes the 2020 census miscounting that handed Democrats up to six stolen House seats, and dismantles the left's racist Electoral College argument for exactly what it is — pure desperation.

Welcome to today's ultimate news roundup, where we blow the lid off the biggest global, local, and cultural earthquakes shaking our world!

This is absolutely heartbreaking!

We are breaking down a massive, jam-packed show of explosive headlines!

Staying up late, eating junk food, and hanging out with friends. Sleepovers are the source of so many good memories for many people. But they aren't danger-free. In this episode of the All Pro Dad Podcast, host Ted Lowe is joined by BJ Foster and Bobby Lewis to ask if sleepovers are good for kids, if the upsides outweigh the risks, and what dads need to know about overnight stays.Why This MattersToday's parents are thinking about sleepover safety more than ever. Dads are considering supervision, peer influence, pornography exposure, and emotional readiness before automatically saying yes to sleepovers.Key Takeaways• Just because sleepovers are common doesn't mean they are automatically wise for every family. • Sleepover can be fun, but also offer prime environments for sexual assault, pornography exposure, and pressure to use drugs or alcohol.• There are healthy alternatives to traditional sleepovers, like “late overs” instead of overnight stays.Practical Tips for Dads1.    Ask intentional questions before sending your child to a sleepover.Ask the host family about supervision, the presence of older siblings, phone access, house rules, and whether you have common values. 2.    Prepare your kids ahead of time.Talk openly about unsafe situations, pornography exposure, inappropriate behavior, and create a code word or phrase they can use if they want to come home immediately.3.    If you host sleepovers, set clear boundaries.Keep kids in common areas, establish a smartphone curfew, secure firearms, and check in throughout the night.Important Episode Timestamps [00:00] Are Sleepovers Good for Kids? Ted frames a conversation about approaching sleepovers not from fear but from wisdom, helping dads make intentional decisions for their own families.[00:51] Sleepover Stories From the Guys — From Innocent to Eye-OpeningThe dads share their own childhood sleepover memories, ranging from sleeping bags at the Jersey Shore to an unexpected discovery in an older brother's room.[03:44] Sleepover Regrets Ted reflects honestly on how his own middle school sleepovers introduced him to alcohol, pornography, and tobacco.[07:28] Real Benefits of Sleepovers That Make Them Worth Considering The dads walk through the genuine upsides of sleepovers — deeper friendships, independence, shared memories, unstructured fun, and the social inclusion kids naturally crave — and why most parents still view them positively.[10:32] Why More Parents Are Starting to Question Sleepovers Bobby shares YouGov research showing a growing shift in parental concern over sleepovers, with worries about lack of supervision, bullying, gun access, and exposure to drugs and alcohol driving a more cautious approach.[11:24] Sobering Statistics Every Dad Should Know Before Saying Yes Research shows that 90% of child sexual abuse is committed by someone the child already knows, and that a significant portion of abuse involving children is actually carried out by other juveniles. The dads discuss sleepover safety concerns.[15:47] The Most Important Thing To Do Before Letting Your Kid Sleep Over BJ makes the case that preparation matters more than prohibition. Dads should have ongoing, honest conversations with their kids about what's appropriate, what to do if they feel unsafe, and what they might be exposed to.[19:22] The Code Word Strategy That Gives Kids a Safe Exit Without Losing Face Bobby and Ted explain the code word system they both use with their kids.[22:00] Smart Alternatives to Traditional Sleepovers and Tips for Hosting Safely Bobby walks through practical alternatives like the "late-over" or "sleep-under" concept and shares specific child sleepover safety guidelines.[26:04] This Week's Pro MoveMake a pros and cons list for your family about sleepovers and create clear rules for any future overnight stays.Sponsor:The All Pro Dad Podcast is proudly brought to you by Family First, a nonprofit dedicated to equipping parents with resources to strengthen their families.

Charlie Fink, Ted Schilowitz, and Rony Abovitz take the full hour to work through the most consequential AI and spatial computing stories of the moment — unfiltered, in depth, and without the usual polite hedging that comes with having someone on to promote something. This is a pure news and commentary episode, and the news is strange enough that three experienced people sitting in a room still cannot fully account for it.AI XR News You Should Know:The OpenAI vs. Elon Musk case concluded without a clear ruling, but the more durable observation is what the whole saga revealed about Sam Altman. He has now survived being ousted by his own board (which he subsequently dismantled), a high-profile lawsuit from Elon Musk, and senior rivals leaving for government roles. Rony frames this through the Overton window — Altman studies what society is prepared to accept at any given moment and positions himself precisely there. Ted references a New Yorker profile that describes Altman as having a politician's gift for telling people what they want to hear until it becomes true. The financial architecture underneath the AI boom looks precarious on close inspection. SpaceX, widely assumed to be profitable, is losing five billion dollars a year. Anthropic is spending three dollars for every dollar of revenue it generates — and is paying SpaceX approximately one billion dollars a month for compute through roughly 2030. Rony's framing lands hard: two money-losing entities are funding each other while NVIDIA captures all the margin in between. Sequoia published a fifty-page analysis arguing the economics cannot work — while simultaneously holding positions in the companies it is critiquing. Google I/O delivered less on wearables than expected, but the real story was a deliberate strategic decision to put Gemini at the center of the company's entire product surface — effectively cannibalizing an eighty-two-billion-dollar search business before a competitor does it for them. The Innovator's Dilemma, run on purpose. On the hardware side, Android XR glasses are designed to be imperceptible as technology — thin temples, hidden camera portals, frames that belong in an optometrist's display case rather than a trade show floor. Rony notes that Google's glasses almost certainly incorporate Magic Leap optics, following a partnership announced in fall 2025. [00:00] – Cold open and episode framing: why there is no guest today and what the trio plans to cover.[04:15] – OpenAI vs. Elon Musk non-verdict: what the outcome (and lack of one) actually reveals.[09:30] – Sam Altman and the Overton window: Rony's read on how Altman has survived everything thrown at him.[16:00] – Anti-AI backlash on campuses: Eric Schmidt booed at University of Arizona, YouGov poll showing 69 percent of young people negative on AI, and what the demographic gradient means.[24:45] – SpaceX financials and the AI funding loop: the five-billion-dollar annual loss, Anthropic's burn rate, and Charlie's Ponzi scheme framing.[33:20] – Sequoia's fifty-page report and the ad model endgame: Ted's argument that Google wins because they already know the business model.[41:00] – Google I/O: the deliberate destruction of the search business, Android XR glasses, and why distribution beats specifications.[49:10] – AI accountability and the airplane analogy: Ted's line, Rony's "underground noise" from generals and CTOs, and the problem of regulatory vocabulary.[55:30] – Palantir, dual-use opacity, and the Lookout Mountain Air Force Station story: Rony on Jared Leto, classified film studios, and Cold War bunkers in Laurel Canyon.[01:01:00] – The success ledger: who is measuring impact, and what should actually count as winning.This episode is sponsored by Zappar and Mattercraft.

Joshua Pantony spent years being told there would never be a viable AI company in his lifetime. He sold his first AI company to Microsoft anyway — work that quietly became part of what is now Microsoft Copilot. Today he runs Boosted AI, an agentic platform serving more than 400 institutional investors who collectively manage around five trillion dollars in assets. He is one of the most credible voices in applied AI finance, and his read on where the industry is heading cuts through a lot of noise.The conversation covers what it actually means to deploy AI in professional investing — not the demo version, but the one that has to earn trust from portfolio managers who have built careers on discretion and judgment. The platform learns each investor's individual style and then acts like a highly motivated junior analyst who never sleeps: constantly surfacing ideas, flagging risks, and improving the workflow without ever taking over the decision. Josh also unpacks why the Bloomberg terminal is facing its BlackBerry moment, why the technology moat is effectively dead, and why the next durable advantage in finance will come from human trust networks that no model can replicate. AI XR News You Should Know: The episode opens with two news segments covering AWE 2026 and the Snap Spectacles keynote with Evan Spiegel, the Samsung Galaxy Glasses debut, Gemini rolling out as Android's native agentic AI, the Cerebras sixty-billion-dollar IPO, and what an AI filmmaking company launched by the creators of Instagram Stories tells us about the future of short-form content. The conversation about micro-dramas, why Quibi failed, and what sixty percent of social media users now say about their own feeds leads directly into the trust themes that run through the entire episode.Key Moments:[00:00] – Cold open and welcome. Charlie frames the sixth anniversary of the show.[02:30] – AWE 2026 recap. Snap Spectacles keynote, Evan Spiegel on stage, Samsung Galaxy Glasses previewed.[06:00] – Gemini as Android's native agentic layer. What it means that AI is now replacing the OS interface.[09:15] – Cerebras sixty-billion-dollar IPO. What a big AI IPO year signals for the sector.[12:00] – AI filmmaking and Instagram Stories creators. The new short-form production economy.[14:30] – Why Quibi really failed. No sharing mechanic, wrong bet on clipping, and arriving before the audience was ready.[16:45] – The trust problem in social feeds. YouGov data: sixty percent of users cannot tell what is real. Social becoming a lie stream.[19:00] – Guest intro. Joshua Pantony on being told AI would never be a viable business, and the algorithm he wrote at twenty that saved a million dollars.[24:00] – How Boosted AI works. The digital twin model, the agentic workflow, and why it is not a portfolio manager.[33:00] – The Bloomberg terminal's BlackBerry moment. Thirty thousand dollars a year for what AI will deliver for a fraction.[42:00] – The moat is dead. Why user context — not the technology — is the durable advantage.[51:00] – The innovator's dilemma at high frequency. Rony on why a day in AI is like a decade, and what that means for incumbents.[58:00] – Trust networks as the last edge. The analog handshake as the most valuable currency in a world of synthetic information.This conversation is a clear-eyed look at what it takes to build AI that professionals actually adopt — not a pitch, not a thought experiment. Josh's framing of Wall Street as the greatest collective intelligence humanity has built, and his argument that AI can finally make capital allocation genuinely more efficient, gives the episode an ambition that goes well beyond fintech. The question of what survives automation — and what only humans can do — runs underneath every answer.This episode is sponsored by Zappar and Mattercraft.

C dans l'air du 19 juin 2026 - Le livre qui fait trembler la Maison-BlancheDes négociations reportées avant même de s'ouvrir en Suisse et un vice-président américain qui annule sa venue à Genève. Alors que la situation est toujours explosive au Liban et que les critiques pleuvent en Europe comme outre-Atlantique sur le « deal » négocié par Donald Trump avec l'Iran, le président des États-Unis continue de présenter le protocole d'accord signé avec le régime iranien comme une victoire et revendique même un pouvoir « sans limites ».Interrogé par le média américain Axios sur ce que ce conflit dit de son pouvoir, il a ainsi répondu : « Il n'a pas de limites. » Une phrase qui rappelle son « I am the boss! » prononcé mercredi lors de son entrée, avec une heure de retard, dans une salle de réunion du G7 à Évian. Depuis, la séquence a été publiée sur le compte de la Maison-Blanche, alors que journaux, analystes et experts se déchaînent contre la stratégie américaine et le bilan de la guerre en Iran. « Capitulation », « erreur colossale », « crépuscule d'une grande puissance »… Même dans le camp Trump, l'accord est loin de faire l'unanimité. Face aux critiques, le président américain a reconnu avoir négocié cet accord pour éviter que la guerre ne dégénère en crise économique mondiale, alimentant une inflation déjà record aux États-Unis. La hausse des prix, tirée par la flambée des cours du pétrole, s'est littéralement emballée en mai : + 4,2 % sur un an, soit son plus haut niveau mensuel depuis mai 2023. Résultat : la cote de popularité du président des États-Unis auprès de la génération Y, l'un des blocs électoraux les plus importants du pays, a chuté à son niveau le plus bas jamais enregistré dans de récents sondages réalisés par YouGov et The Economist.L'affaire Epstein revient hanter la Maison-Blanche. Après les dernières révélations du New York Times décrivant une véritable panique dans la Situation Room autour des conséquences politiques du dossier, le livre Changement de régime : au cœur de la présidence impériale de Donald Trump, qui doit paraître prochainement, s'annonce explosif.D'après les premiers extraits du livre, le vice-président aurait plaidé pour la publication complète des documents Epstein, y compris ceux pouvant embarrasser Trump, et aurait suggéré une interview de Ghislaine Maxwell par Tucker Carlson afin qu'elle affirme publiquement que Trump n'était impliqué dans aucun acte répréhensible. Les auteurs, Maggie Haberman et Jonathan Swan, évoquent également des tensions entre les deux hommes, notamment sur le dossier iranien. En juin 2025, Trump aurait reproché à Vance de ne pas suffisamment suivre sa ligne, déclarant : « Tout le monde doit simplement répéter ce que je dis. »Ces derniers jours, le président des États-Unis avait résumé ainsi son état d'esprit concernant son vice-président et le protocole d'accord signé avec l'Iran : « Si ça marche, j'en réclamerai le mérite. Si ça ne marche pas, je dirai que c'est la faute de J. D. »Le vice-président, prétendant potentiel à sa succession, est depuis chargé d'une tâche délicate : défendre la signature du protocole, attaqué aussi bien à droite qu'à gauche aux États-Unis, tout en prenant le gouvernail des négociations à venir. Dans ce contexte, il a lancé un avertissement aux critiques de Trump en Israël : « Si j'étais au gouvernement israélien, peut-être que je n'attaquerais pas le seul allié puissant qui me reste sur la planète. » Nos experts :- Nicole BACHARAN - Historienne et politologue, spécialiste des États-Unis, auteur de Requiem pour le monde libre - Alain BAUER - Professeur émérite au Cnam, auteur de La vérité sur le système Epstein - Vincent HUGEUX - Journaliste indépendant, essayiste, spécialiste des enjeux internationaux- Ben BARNIER - Journaliste France Info TV – ancien correspondant aux Etats-Unis-

Polish-American man Leo Gerstenzang is credited with inventing the humble cotton bud in the 1920s, an item which has since gone on to be used for many different purposes, having originally been thought up as a baby hygiene product.Yougov research from 2019 found that 62% of Brits use cotton buds to clean their ears, and 22% of us only use them for that purpose. That's particularly true for men, given women are more likely to use them for touching up nail polish mistakes, or applying make up.  But you may well have heard warnings that cotton buds can be bad for you. 2019 also saw the unlikely case of a man who developed a severe bacterial infection, which sprread to the lining of his brain, after the tip of a cotton bud got stuck inside his ear. He ended up having a seizure and had to be treated at University Hostpital Coventry, according to Livescience.com. How can I clean my ears then? Are there any safe ways?

Donald Trump faced merciless booing at the Knicks game Monday night, and Fox News figures quickly recognized how perilous this is. As Media Matters details, Fox personalties and on-air chyrons spun madly in response. They absurdly portrayed the reception as much more muddled, as inspired by something other than Trump, and even as meaningfully peppered with cheers for him. This comes as his polls just nosedived again: A new YouGov poll has Trump's approval on the economy and inflation in the twenties. And fresh data from The Argument shows Trump deeply underwater in numerous red states with competitive Senate races. He contines to slide in the polling averages, too. We talked to Grant Wiles, a data analyst with NextGen America, which just released new research on Trump's toxicity with young voters. We parse all the new polls, dig into why Trump propagandists fear he's in a downward spiral, and discuss how Democrats can avoid getting too complacent about the midterms.  Looking for More from the DSR Network?

On the programme:Last week, Annunziata Rees-Mogg took to X to post a claim about the proportion of sex offences in Dorset that are committed by asylum seekers, writing that “asylum seekers make up 0.8% of Dorset's population and 44% of alleged sex offenses. So unbelievable I had to check.” We checked too, and the number isn't right. In the last series of More or Less we suggested that nuclear power plant Hinkley C was spending so much on protecting the fish population that it would cost something like £250,000 per fish saved. We've had to take a look at that one too. Last year, we looked at a report by the Bible Society based on polling from YouGov. The Quiet Revival suggested that churchgoing was on the rise in the UK, with young men leading the trend. YouGov now have an update on that survey.How many caterpillars does a blue tit chick eat before it leaves the nest? In a recent nature documentary, Sir David Attenborough said the right number was 20,000. We're not so sure.

Joshua Pantony spent years being told there would never be a viable AI company in his lifetime. He sold his first AI company to Microsoft anyway — work that quietly became part of what is now Microsoft Copilot. Today he runs Boosted AI, an agentic platform serving more than 400 institutional investors who collectively manage around five trillion dollars in assets. He is one of the most credible voices in applied AI finance, and his read on where the industry is heading cuts through a lot of noise.The conversation covers what it actually means to deploy AI in professional investing — not the demo version, but the one that has to earn trust from portfolio managers who have built careers on discretion and judgment. The platform learns each investor's individual style and then acts like a highly motivated junior analyst who never sleeps: constantly surfacing ideas, flagging risks, and improving the workflow without ever taking over the decision. Josh also unpacks why the Bloomberg terminal is facing its BlackBerry moment, why the technology moat is effectively dead, and why the next durable advantage in finance will come from human trust networks that no model can replicate. Ted Schilowitz and Rony Abovitz join host Charlie Fink with sharp frames throughout — Rony's observation that the innovator's dilemma is now a high-frequency problem landed hard.AI XR News You Should Know: The episode opens with two news segments covering AWE 2026 and the Snap Spectacles keynote with Evan Spiegel, the Samsung Galaxy Glasses debut, Gemini rolling out as Android's native agentic AI, the Cerebras sixty-billion-dollar IPO, and what an AI filmmaking company launched by the creators of Instagram Stories tells us about the future of short-form content. The conversation about micro-dramas, why Quibi failed, and what sixty percent of social media users now say about their own feeds leads directly into the trust themes that run through the entire episode.Key Moments:[00:00] – Cold open and welcome. Charlie frames the sixth anniversary of the show.[02:30] – AWE 2026 recap. Snap Spectacles keynote, Evan Spiegel on stage, Samsung Galaxy Glasses previewed.[06:00] – Gemini as Android's native agentic layer. What it means that AI is now replacing the OS interface.[09:15] – Cerebras sixty-billion-dollar IPO. What a big AI IPO year signals for the sector.[12:00] – AI filmmaking and Instagram Stories creators. The new short-form production economy.[14:30] – Why Quibi really failed. No sharing mechanic, wrong bet on clipping, and arriving before the audience was ready.[16:45] – The trust problem in social feeds. YouGov data: sixty percent of users cannot tell what is real. Social becoming a lie stream.[19:00] – Guest intro. Joshua Pantony on being told AI would never be a viable business, and the algorithm he wrote at twenty that saved a million dollars.[24:00] – How Boosted AI works. The digital twin model, the agentic workflow, and why it is not a portfolio manager.[33:00] – The Bloomberg terminal's BlackBerry moment. Thirty thousand dollars a year for what AI will deliver for a fraction.[42:00] – The moat is dead. Why user context — not the technology — is the durable advantage.[51:00] – The innovator's dilemma at high frequency. Rony on why a day in AI is like a decade, and what that means for incumbents.[58:00] – Trust networks as the last edge. The analog handshake as the most valuable currency in a world of synthetic information.This conversation is a clear-eyed look at what it takes to build AI that professionals actually adopt — not a pitch, not a thought experiment. Josh's framing of Wall Street as the greatest collective intelligence humanity has built, and his argument that AI can finally make capital allocation genuinely more efficient, gives the episode an ambition that goes well beyond fintech. The question of what survives automation — and what only humans can do — runs underneath every answer.This episode is sponsored by Zappar and Mattercraft.

Andrew Walworth, Tom Bevan, and Carl Cannon discuss what to expect from President Trump's two-day summit in Beijing. And, they talk about a new poll of likely Republican voters that shows Secretary of State Marco Rubio ahead of Vice President JD Vance in the 2028 race for the GOP presidential nomination. Next, they discuss today's Senate hearings chaired by Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) featuring a long-time CIA employee on the origins of the COVID-19 virus, and a new report out of Israel that documents the horrors committed by Hamas on October 7, 2023. Also, New York Times columnist Nicholas Kristoff's controversial new column on abuses in Israeli jails, which relies largely on allegedly pro-Hamas sources. And lastly, they discuss New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani's new video celebrating the city's “balanced” budget, and Carl talks about his latest article on a new YouGov poll showing that many Democrats believe the assassination attempts against President Trump have been staged.

Hour 3 opens with St. Louis County Councilman Dennis Hancock discussing allegations that County Executive Sam Page violated rules by working outside his official duties, with pressure mounting for further legal review and potential removal proceedings. The hour then shifts to Stefan Padfield from the Heritage Foundation, who breaks down ongoing DEI policy battles in corporations and universities, warning that rebranding efforts are masking continued ideological influence, while also addressing scrutiny of the Southern Poverty Law Center and related legal and organizational controversies. Later, Dylan Sharkey of the Illinois Policy Institute details Illinois' escalating gas tax structure, including automatic annual increases, layered local taxes, and rising fuel costs that continue to pressure drivers despite large existing transportation funds. The hour closes with a viral YouGov poll discussion questioning whether Americans believe they could beat Donald Trump in a fight, breaking down partisan responses and highlighting how politically charged perceptions distort even absurd hypothetical scenarios.

Jimmy Failla joins the show reacting to rising gas prices, the president's trip to China, and the broader geopolitical backdrop involving Iran and energy markets. The conversation turns into a sharp, comedic breakdown of a YouGov poll claiming large shares of Democrats believe they could beat Donald Trump—or even that an eight-year-old could win a fight against him—prompting Failla to frame it as projection and political group-think rather than reality. He and the host also dig into the idea that gas tax relief is more symbolic than structural, while real price pressure is tied to global conflict and supply strategy. The segment mixes political analysis with humor, including commentary on media framing, cultural polarization, and how Trump's political style continues to drive public reactions.

Bakari Sellers called Kevin O'Leary a "dick" on live CNN after O'Leary pushed back on the claim that colorblind redistricting is the "second coming of Jim Crow." Meanwhile, Raphael Warnock told Pod Save America that black men who voted for Donald Trump needed a "permission structure" — and new YouGov polling shows the black vote collapsing from D+81 to D+53 in just eight years while the Hispanic vote cratered from D+42 to D+4.

The quiet part of New Mexico politics is over. Mark and Krysty dig into the Republican race for governor as it starts to heat up, using the most revealing moments from a Legacy Church candidate forum where each contender gets a true “hot seat” question. We listen to the toughest hits, then break down what the answers actually mean in a primary where sound bites travel faster than context, and where the general election story is already being written.We unpack Doug Turner's response to criticism over COVID-era funding and why a defensible explanation can still become a devastating attack line. We also look at Greg Hull's fundraising problem, the hard math of campaign money, and the uncomfortable question every candidate eventually faces: do you have the fire in the belly to take incoming shots and still win? From there, we react to Duke Rodriguez's explanation for donating to Democrats, plus Turner's decision to lean into Zorro Ranch and the Epstein headlines as an accountability message.Then we zoom out to the national battlefield: an NRCC polling memo that suggests New Mexico's 2nd Congressional District could be closer than people think, and a redistricting and gerrymandering arms race playing out in places like Tennessee and Virginia. We close with a sobering YouGov poll on political violence and why leaders have to draw a clear line before the numbers get worse.Subscribe, share the show with a friend, and leave a rating and review.

Is polyamory about more than just how many partners you have?According to a YouGov survey from 2023, on a scale of zero being completely monogamous and six being completely non-monogamous, one third of Americans put their answer somewhere above zero. And there are a lot of different types of non-monogamy, but one of those types – polyamory – has been in the discourse as of late. The polyamory that writer Lindy West describes in her new book, Adult Braces, has spawned a thousand takes: her path to polyamory was admittedly kind of dicey, and it spawned discussion about what polyamory means. Polyamory can stand in for a set of political beliefs, class associations and other signifiers that have nothing to do with how many partners one has. But why does a choice about relationship structures feel so weighty, and why can't anyone be normal about it?To discuss, Brittany is joined by Christopher M. Gleason, lecturer of American history at Georgia State University and the author of American Poly, a book about the history of polyamory in America.(00:00) Lindy West and polyamory panic(02:41) Polyamory's surprising political origins(07:02) Can polyamory "fix" relationships?(12:41) Misconceptions about polyamory (and why it has so many haters)For more episodes about relationships, check out:What really counts as "cheating?"The joy of breaking up with dating appsMe and my partner don't see eye-to-eye about AI.
