The Commentary Magazine Podcast - Mel Brooks, COVID and Iran (But Not In That Order)

Today’s podcast concludes with a commemoration of the life and career of 95-year-old Mel Brooks and what they have to teach us—and how we need to restore what he brought to American life and American comedy. Before that, we ask why Democrats and Republicans have such wildly divergent views about the end of the pandemic—and the thickets into which the Biden administration has wandered with Iran. Source

Time To Say Goodbye - Click, buy, suffer? Plus listener questions

Hello from Tammy’s 104-degree podcast studio!

This week, we talk about the nightmare of piled-up container ships on the West coast, why Covid has triggered these crises along the global supply chain, a bit of logistics history, and the dire ecological future that awaits us.

Also, for the first time in a while, some listener questions:

* Are there racial aspects to Yang’s mayoral downfall? Or do Yang’s two campaigns tell us something about the difference between appealing to Asians versus a wider public?

* More on the “Asian pessimism” discussion from last week?

* Any social-justice wins to be happy about?

Thanks to Stephanie, Sam, and Cliff for their questions! And thanks to all of you for listening and subscribing. Stay cool!

Headlines From The Times - Recall, George Gascón, and the troubles of progressive D.A.s

Los Angeles County Dist. Atty. George Gascón has a policing pedigree like few others. Army veteran. Patrol officer in Los Angeles. Police chief in San Francisco before becoming D.A. there. Now, he’s in charge of the D.A.’s office in L.A., one of the largest in the country. He’s part of a wave of progressive district attorneys who have won elections in some of America’s largest cities with a promise to radically reform their offices. And he’s currently the subject of a recall effort. Today, we tackle this blowback, talking to L.A. Times crimes and policing reporter James Queally, a member of the Recall Gascón campaign, and Gascón himself.

Our defence and Russia editors discuss world leaders’ diverging views on handling today’s Russia. South Korea’s new opposition leader is giving voice to many young men who rail against the country’s feminist values. And what lies behind professional footballers’ frequent, flashy haircuts.

Code Story: Insights from Startup Tech Leaders - S5 E3: Alex Yurkowski, ClickUp

Alex Yurkowski grew up in New Jersey. He has always been into tech and building things, especially in software. Like many others, it all started with a lot of video games, like Warcraft, Starcraft - basically the Blizzard portfolio.

But along with that, it included Legos, Connects, and then progressed naturally into computer science. He attended Notre Dame to study CS and being a part of the fighting Irish, he can confirm there is a love hate relationship with the Rudy story. Post college, he worked at IBM for a stint in North Carolina. It was at this point in his life that he got married, and then moved to LA and he's been there for about 5 years.

He and his co-founder were working on projects together, and they went through multiple workflow tools that didn't fit there work style. They realized that there was a gap in the market, where people needed a tool that allowed you to work the way you want, and have all of your tools in one place.

This is the creation story of ClickUp.
