The Commentary Magazine Podcast - Philadelphi Unfreedom

What exactly is it the protestors in Israel and the media in the United States and Joe Biden actually want out of Israel? It appears they want the country to give up the strategic high ground it holds near Gaza in pursuit of a "deal" no one really believes can be struck. We talk about that, and we talk also about our own Christine Rosen's new book, The Extinction of Experience. Pre-order it on Amazon, and give a listen.

Everything Everywhere Daily - The Most Important Supermarket Visit in History (Encore)

The cold war was the defining event of the second half of the 20th century. 

When exactly it ended has been subject to debate. Was it the fall of the Berlin Wall? Was the day the Soviet Union was dissolved?

There is an argument to be made that end might have actually occurred before any of those things, although no one knew it at the time. 

The event in question didn’t take place in Moscow or Washington but in a supermarket in the suburbs of Houston. 

Learn more about the most important supermarket visit in history on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

NPR's Book of the Day - ‘The Instrumentalist’ is a story about music, imagination and Anna Maria della Pietà

Harriet Constable learned a lot about the real life of Anna Maria della Pietà — that she grew up in an orphanage, that she was a star violinist and a favored student of Antonio Vivaldi. But in her new novel, The Instrumentalist, Constable also merges fact with fiction to tell the story of Anna Maria's synesthesia and musical talents. In today's episode, she speaks with NPR's Scott Simon about Anna Maria's life, the challenges and excitement of the classical music world at the time, and what we make of Vivaldi today.

Bad Faith - Episode 402 Promo – Getting from Protest to Revolution (w/ Vincent Bevins)

Subscribe to Bad Faith on Patreon to instantly unlock this episode and our entire premium episode library: http://patreon.com/badfaithpodcast

Author of The Jakarta Method and If We Burn: The Mass Protest Decade and the Missing Revolution Vincent Bevins joins Bad Faith to discuss how to turn protests into revolutionary change. In If We Burn he analyzes over a dozen movements from the Arab Spring to Occupy Wall Street to the protests in Hong Kong and Brazil to establish the conditions that create mass movements. Then he takes it a step rather, investigating why those movements have not manifested in progress and have, at times, actually preceded a political regression. In this sprawling three hour conversation we do “applied history” and try to break down what went wrong after the BLM protests of 2020 and how to prevent those failures now that we’re in the middle of global protests over Israel’s genocide on Gaza.
