The 'Alice in Wonderland' Deep State With Lee Smith
"Much of Alice in Wonderland bizarre place are we in that not only is there a deep state? But the elected representatives of the people are actually openly gloating about the revenge of the intelligence community against the head of state? Right. I mean, it's pathetic. I mean, that to me is the essential point, an elected official, a senior elected official. Charles Schumer is here boasting about how powerful the intelligence community is. And they can take you down any way that they want. I mean, it's repulsive. Who is supposed to be running this country, the representatives of the American people, right? That's what central, who the American people vote for, not who's lurking in dark corners in Washington, D.C. with 6 different methods to take you down. It's repulsive and Rachel maddow allegedly a member of the press gloating like a little renfield here along with Chuck Schumer. It's repulsive, but that's a perfect picture of where we are right now. And that to the Democrats are and I don't want to hear people saying, oh, I didn't understand. Here's the left, and they're in favor of the spy services. Yes, of course they are. Because historically, that's what the left is. That's the whole project to get the state behind them or to have the state behind them. And that's where we are now. You saw the left saying one thing for decades when the state was not behind them. When the state was, when the state was not controlled by the left, right? But now that it is, there are more than happy to use the institutions of the state against their opponents.

Flashbots Co-Founder Phil Daian Talks MEV
"Start by talking about the history of MeV, what MeV is? And then we'll go into sort of a broader discussion about some of the interesting topics that it brings up. Yeah, I'm really excited to have fill here who I sort of think of as kind of the granddaddy of MeV and the formalization of MeV on Ethereum. I think one thing that's weird about MeV is it feels like this extremely niche deep rabbit hole where there's a certain subset of crypto people who are all the way down the rabbit hole. I love it. But if you are starting from the first time, it's sort of confusing as to what is going on, why we're in this place, all the different actors are and what they're doing. And so I guess, do you want to give us sort of a little bit of your impression or your background on what was MeV like or how to sort of get started? What do you think of as sort of the first example of MeV in crypto? Yeah, definitely. Hello, everyone. I'm Phil cofounder of flashbots and a PhD student at Cornell who works on smart contract security. What was MeV like for me? It's a super complicated journey. I think anyone who's been into MeV for a while kind of has this story about how they stumbled onto it and fell down the rabbit hole. I often compare it to kind of Alice in Wonderland because for some people, once they discover MeV, the entire world just stops making sense and you fall into this kind of like crazy alternate reality. So for me, kind of what that journey was like, kind of started with getting into Bitcoin. I got into Bitcoin on some digital activism work that I was doing. And I wanted to kind of think about how to further the cryptocurrency cause kind of around 20 15 I got into Bitcoin kind of a little before that, but around 2015, I decided, okay, I want to change my career. From formal verification, which is what I was working at the time and kind of formalizing car software, formalizing planes, things like that, into helping the cause of cryptocurrency because it's a super important and revolutionary technology.

FTX Founder Sam Bankman-Fried Arrested in the Bahamas
"Sam bankman freed was set on his way by two Stanford law professors who are very good law professors, but law professors don't really know a lot about the world. I've been a lot of professors since 1996 and I kept my hand in private practice under the arrangement I hit with Chapman and I only teach one semester a year now, but I like being a professor, but I like being in the world more. Most professors are simply not connected to the world. So if they were giving sandbank men free advice, even if they're very good law professor doesn't mean he was getting great legal advice. He was arrested yesterday. That happened late last night. I just posted on my Twitter feed, a story from Alice news items, the last thing I read before going on the air because it's the latest breaking news and it comes in the earliest.

"alice" Discussed on Encyclopedia Womannica
"Alice was born on April 19th, 1872 to a middle class Jewish family in Berlin, Germany. Her childhood was blotted by several personal tragedies. Including the deaths of several of her siblings when they were still young. Her family was never very religious, but after Alice's father died in 1886, her mother encouraged her children to restore their Jewish faith. Those efforts didn't work. Alice would eventually convert to Christianity as an adult. Alice finished school when she was 15 years old. She desperately wanted to go to university, but there were very few educational opportunities for middle class women in Germany. She decided to attend a small art school to study needlework. In 1893, Alice joined a women's group dedicated to relief work. Through her service, she became aware of the everyday injustices of poverty. In her autobiography, Alice described feeling a new sense of shame about her own family's relative prosperity. During this time, she often argued with her mother about whether they could part with the pictures on their walls and the rugs on their floors. She wanted to give everything to the people she felt truly deserved it. Alice wrote during the first decade of my work, I could not see a man doing heavy and dirty labor in the streets without wondering why he did not attack people like me who were free from drudgery. These years were absolutely formative in shaping the rest of Alice's life. In 18 99, she launched the first one year training course for social workers in Europe. She was also publishing articles on a variety of cultural issues, which helped her finally land a place at Berlin university in 1902. She earned a doctorate in 1906 and wrote her dissertation on gender pay inequality. Alice later established the German conference of schools for social work for women. By 1920, the field had gained official recognition. And women were earning diplomas in social work. She also helped found the German academy for women's social and educational work and later became the first president of the international committee of schools of social work. After her success in promoting social work in her home country, Alice set her sights on the rest of the western world. She traveled across Canada and the U.S., stopping in Vancouver, meeting Mormons in Utah, and talking to Jane Adams in Chicago. Alice found New York inspiring, and she encountered more modern approaches to gender equality. In some households, men even cleared the table after a meal. All the while, she lectured to crowds in North America and Europe about the importance of relief work. She also became known for her activism for world peace during World War I and for women's rights. By the time Alice turned 60 years old, she was internationally recognized and celebrated. The school she had founded was renamed in her honor. And she was also awarded an honorary doctorate in medicine. But she was not able to enjoy these achievements for long. The Nazi Party had come to power in Germany, and Alice was in danger. Despite the fact that she had converted to Christianity in Hitler's Germany, anyone born to a Jewish family was considered Jewish under the law. Alice was subject to the same state sanctioned discrimination and violence as millions of other Jewish people in Germany and nearby parts of Europe. Alice's name was taken off the school, she started. She wasn't even allowed in the building anymore. Nonprofit groups she belonged to dissolved and so did much of her social circle. Alice raised funds and advised people who were attempting to flee Nazi Germany. But her opportunities to continue her life's work in Germany shrank under Nazi rule. Still, Alice continued her international lectures. But this also didn't last. Her progressive politics and international profile made her a target for the Nazis. In 1937, she was interrogated by the Gestapo after returning from a speaking tour in America. They claimed her international travel was suspicious and gave her a choice. Leave Germany within three weeks or be sent to a concentration camp. Alice immigrated to New York in September of 1937. Though she was sad to leave her colleagues and friends behind, she remained hopeful for the future. She wrote so long as I lived in Germany, I was powerless. In sending me away, the Nazis loosened my tongue. Inadvertently, they gave me, after empty, dreary years, a new lease on life. At first, she enjoyed a warm reception in America. In early 1938, Eleanor Roosevelt invited Alice to tea at The White House. And she was honored by various women's and social work groups for her work as a philanthropist and educator. But Alice couldn't find a stable job beyond speaking gigs. It may seem strange that someone as influential as Alice would have trouble finding new work. But she was in her mid 60s and a war refugee. She didn't become a U.S. citizen until 1944. So she was ineligible for public employment for many years. The job market was also tight, and many refugees struggled to win positions over qualified American applicants. Alice committed herself to writing a memoir, recounting her life's work, but she couldn't find a publisher to take it. In August 1948, a severe heat wave stifled New York for 5 full days. As the temperatures hovered around a 100°, Alice died alone in her apartment. The exact date of her death is not known. Though Alice ended her life largely in isolation. Her legacy has grown in the years since. The Nazis destroyed many of her writings. However, the manuscripts of her memoir were rediscovered and finally published in Germany in 1983. Her school for social work in Berlin was also renamed in her honor. In 2001, the Alice salaman archive was created in Berlin. Today, we remember Alice as a mother of modern social work. She was a feminist and educator who remained committed to her service to others during even the darkest of times. All month, we're talking about mothers.

Is It Safe to Send Your Kids to College in NYC?
"My daughter is a junior in high school and she has a heart settle and attending the King's College in New York City. My wife believed and I believe she has the qualifications. Weed a tour. We love the school. We have close family friends, though who are saying, don't send her because of what they've seen like when shows like Tucker Carlson. I mean, what's is there to collapse of civilization happening in New York City right now? Is it safe for her to come? What do you think, Eric? So that's the big question. Should people send their children here to New York City for college for two to four years? And I actually see the questions in front of me. The woman says I've listened to every podcast that we've done on this program in 7 years since the very first one with Alice von Hildebrand. So I'll heal your hear your answer if you take this one on the air. Oh my goodness. Yeah. Oh my goodness. That was on Hitler's birthday 7 years ago. We said, how can what can we do on Hitler's birthday? The show starts on April 20th. What do we do? And we said, how about getting the widow of one of the greatest enemies of Adolf Hitler on the program that was Elvis and Hildebrand? Wow. Okay. Well, the answer to that question is, I understand the concerns, but I think if you have wisdom, you don't need to worry about these kinds of things. What I'm saying is if your daughter has wisdom, young people, sometimes lack wisdom, but I honestly think that if you come to New York City, you pretty quickly figure out what's safe, what's not safe. If you're in a college environment, you're not just wandering around. So I think a lot of this stuff is overblown. In other words, I think that you see the worst of everything on the news and you think, you know, I get phone calls from people. And I think what are you talking about? That's not happening a lot. It's so rare, but if anything bad happens, they put it on the news.

Greg Laurie Discusses the Faith Journey of John Lennon
"To my friend pastor Greg Laurie of harvest church in Southern California, the author of many books, the new one is called Lennon Dylan Alice and Jesus spiritual biography of rock and roll. So Greg, you're sharing some fascinating stuff that John Lennon called in, I mean, I had heard that he was watching Christian TV kind of hanging out in the Dakota during this strange period in the 70s kind of raising his son there just being a house husband and watching Christian TV and that he called up Billy Graham's whatever called up the number on the screen and professed faith in Christ and then you said wrote about it in his diary. Yeah, I wrote about his new film faith in his diary and he recorded two Christian songs. If you go to YouTube and Google John Lennon comet Christian songs, you'll find that they were rough songs, one almost made it on his final album, a double fantasy. But even a double fantasy, you can see him beginning to soften. He writes in his song beautiful boy about his sunshine before you go to sleep, see a little prayer every day and every way gets better and better. John was changing. Now, here's a tragedy, and we all know that. John was murdered by Mark David Chapman. And so I begin this book with this statement. There'll be three surprises when we get to heaven. Number one, some of the people we thought would be there won't be there. Number two, some of the people we never thought would be there will be their number three, we will be there. So here's my premise on John Lennon, because I wasn't there at that moment. He did survive the shooting. They put him in the back of a police car and rushed him to the hospital. The officer asked him, do you know who you are? John did if in the final moments of his life, John called out to the Jesus. He professed faith in his prayer would have been heard just as surely as Jesus heard the prayer of the thief on the cross. So

Greg Laurie Explores Faith in 'Lennon, Dylan, Alice, & Jesus'
"Listen, this book is exciting to me, Greg. And you have written you've written many books, you're an evangelist. You're at harvest church in Orange County. But you write about the lives of people and their intersection with faith in Jesus. So this one Lennon Dylan Alice and Jesus, I just read a whole book talking about the spiritual Bob Dylan, the spiritual side of him. And it seems so clear that he still is a believer in Jesus. He doesn't talk about it the way he used to. But that do you cover that in the book? Yeah, I have a whole chapter on bob and you know, that's exactly my premise. I've heard it said that we'll Dylan abandoned his Christian faith, and returned to his Jewish roots. Well, he is Jewish. But he did not abandon his Christian faith. The fact that I just read a review of his recent concert Dylan never stopped touring is on the road constantly. He's playing this song, got his service somebody from slow train coming, which is an overt Christian song. And as another newer song that he's written, that is very much a faith song. So, you know, bob came under such attack when he came out publicly as a Christian. I don't know if he just got tired of all the drama and controversy, but I don't see that he ever stopped believing what he was saying. Not that long ago he did a Christmas record of all things above Dylan Christmas record and sing those old songs just as you would expect. Bob Dylan to sing them, but at the same time, one interviewer said, using those songs as though you believe them, he says, I do.

"Hello from wonder media network. I'm jenny kaplan. And this is will manteca women now earn the majority of higher education degrees in the us. Today's educator was an early pioneer opening academic doors for women. She went from learning in a rural one room schoolhouse to being a leader in the country's finest educational institutions and in the face of immense opposition. She remained a fierce advocate for learning as a true equalizer. Let's welcome alice. Palmer alice freeman was born on february twenty. First eighteen fifty five on a farm in new york susquehanna river valley as the first child of james and elizabeth freeman. Alice grew up shouldering a lot of responsibility. Her days often started with washing dishes gathering eggs and dressing her younger siblings. Then she would head off to school in a one room building. One teacher assigned to teach all the grease but alice had an innate curiosity. She taught herself to read when she was just three years old and enjoy giving speeches no matter the audience. When alice was still quite young her father started studying medicine and he left for medical school. Alice's mother who is just twenty three years old kept the farm running. Perhaps it was then watching her family struggle to stay afloat that alice developed her belief in self sufficiency especially for women. Eventually alice's father returned home armed with a medical degree. The family abandoned farming and move to windsor new york so he could open up a practice their alice attended the windsor academy where she learned alongside male students and earned awards and composition and oration. Alice loved academics and desperately wanted to attend college but her family was not wealthy and at the time it was common for tuition money to be set aside for the oldest son so alice made her father promise. If he would pay for her degree she would use her education to put her brother and two younger sisters through whatever schooling. They wanted alice more than made good on her promise during her. Last two years of the university of michigan alice's father went bankrupt after a bad investment. Alice became the family's primary financial provider and would remain so for years. But let's rewind to the start of alice's college courier. Alice tried to enroll at the university of michigan but performed poorly on the greek and math sections at the entrance exam to school. Put alice on a six week. Trial period fine thought alice another hurdle to overcome. She spent the summer with other college bound. Friends obsessively studying and when analysis first semester started in. Eighteen seventy two. She soared through the trial in her junior year. Alice temporarily drop out so she could teach and earn money for her family but she made up the classes. She missed and graduated on time. The founder of wellesley college offered alice job as a professor. The college had open just four years earlier with an off female faculty eighteen eighty two. Alice was appointed wellesley college. I president she was just twenty seven years old as the first female college president in american history. Alice made waves as a promoter of women's education education. She argued made women into wise self-respecting civic leaders so alice established a web of secondary schools. That prepared girls for the rigors of college she strengthened wellesleys faculty and financial status and. She prepared her students to support themselves just as she'd done in eighteen eighty seven. Alice surprised the world of academia by getting married her husband. George palmer was a philosophy professor at harvard but the bigger shock was soon to come that same year. Alice announced that she was suffering from tuberculosis and resigned from wellesleys presidency. After a year spent convalescing alice. Return to the workforce as a public speaker. She traveled the country spreading the gospel of higher education for women. She spoke at women's clubs. Universities religious societies all over. Alice herself took on a central role in her speeches. It was commonly believed at the time the too much education de sexed a woman. Alice stood onstage as proof that this was not true alice also joined the massachusetts board of education and unsurprisingly gained a reputation as a fierce lobbyist. She and her husband. George took on harvard and tried to get the university to admit women on the same terms as men. Harvard told them. There was no money so alice raised at two hundred and fifty thousand dollar endowment harvard. Its bluff called walked back the agreement to allow female students. It would be another thirty years. Before the first fully matriculated women walked harvard's halls meanwhile illinois. The university of chicago was preparing to open. The university's president was worried about chicago's reputation as a rough western city. Since alice was the most prominent woman in higher education. He asked her to become the school's founding dean of women alice in turn made it her mission to create an environment in which email students would thrive when the university of chicago opened in eighteen. Ninety two women made up twenty four percent of the student body just six years later in eighteen. ninety eight forty. Three percent of the students are women but the universities men were alarmed. They felt the schools being feminized. Alice was subsequently marginalized and ignored after three years of this treatment.

"Because he had an accident and needed to do as little hip flexor exercises. Or what have you and said he agreed. And i don't know why but that you know half an hour or an hour of you know me wrapping presents and him walking around turned into me sort of interviewing him about his life and i asked him you know how he met my mother which i knew the story but i never heard him really talk about it from his perspective and sort of a a prelude to that was him having this unexpected story that he shared with me about going to college in being high school what my father was. Brilliant like mensa brilliant. He was not in mensa but he could have been. He was like invited. I don't even know what you do to get in. But he could have gotten in which led to some of his social anxiety but you know as a child and a teenager and a college student. Sometimes the smartest kids aren't the coolest and so he had shared with me. He was really bullied and just kind of shared some of the pain that he had gone through. You know as a high school student and then as a college student and so one of the things. He did in college because he didn't have a lot of friends was he would bike down to the local farm. He went to a school in farmville virginia. It's a real place called hammered sydney. Their names yeah and so my grandmother. My mother's mom had a farm and she would sell dinner like have you know the the students of the college come over and they could buy dinner for like a dollar fifty cents or whatever it was and that's how he met my mother when he was in college and she was a little bit younger than he was. But just having that conversation about you know knowing that he didn't have he didn't even have friends at college to go to dinner with was like heartbreaking yet kind of beautiful at the same time for him to be able to share that with me and have that empathy of like. Wow okay maybe this is why you know me with my loud outgoing. You know just out. Their personalities like didn't really mesh that well you know and we didn't have a lot of things to relate to but i really by a softened my heart in a big way having that conversation with him is really beautiful. You think your relationship changed that day. Were you a hundred percent really. Yeah alice when when you invited him oh well he actually invited you to come out. Wrap the presence but when you offered to do that if he performed this physical therapy set of exercises in a way it sounds like you became your parents. Yeah sort of. And.

She's the best All right so we want a little bit about you in your father and your relationship and so I understand the title of story is negotiations. Yes negotiations in the craft room unless what happened with negotiations sure answer. This happened in my adult life and my father was not what you would say a warm and fuzzy type of guy. He passed away almost three years ago. Now in twenty eighteen and he was very much an introvert. And so having you know deep conversations or you know even frivolous conversations were few and far between and plus he I live in california and he lived in virginia and so i really only get to see him on vacations and holidays. Where a lot of times. The people that are interacting are the people that are sort of the loudest at the dinner table. Or what have you but he. He was notorious for hating to wrap presence and so he asked me one christmas. While i was home you know. Will you please wrapping presents that i bought for your stepmother. Kathy's bill and don't know if he was trying to bribe me with like a glass of wine or something. And i said yes i will on one condition is that you will stay with me in the craft room in.

"Alice waited a little half expecting to see it again. But it did not appear and after a minute or two. She walked in on the direction where the march hare was said to live. I've seen these headers before. She's dr so the march hare would be the much more interesting. And perhaps this is may it won't be raving mad at least not so mad as was in march as she said that she looked up and there was the cat again sitting on a branch of tree. Did you say pig or fake. Said the cat i said paik replied house and i wish you wouldn't keep appearing in vanishing so suddenly that's quite scary. Alright said the couch and this time at vanished quite slowly beginning with the end of the tail and ending with a grin. Some time after the rest of it had gone well. I've often seen a cat with grin. Said alice but a grin without a cat is the most curious thing i've ever seen in my life. She had not gone much further before she came inside of the house of the march hare. She thought must be the right house because the chimney shaped like ears and the ruthless thatched for it was so large. A house that you and not feel near until she nibbled the left hand bit of mushroom and raised herself to about two feet high even then she walked up towards a rather timidly saying to herself supposed should be raving mad after all.

They must come wriggling down from the sky snakes. But i'm not a snake. I tell you set alice. I'ma but what are you said. The pigeon i can see. You're trying to invent something.

I seen a good many little girls in my time but never won with that neck as large as that. Now you're a snake and there's nothing used for denying. I suppose to be telling me that the next that you never had an egg. I've tasted egg. Certainly it is was very truth. Pro-child little girls eat eggs quite as much as certain pence. Do you know. I don't believe it said the pigeon. But if they do why then they're kind of a serpent. That's all i can say. This was such a new idea to alice that she was quite silent for a minute or two which gave the pigeon the opportunity of adding looking for eggs. I know that will enough. And what does it matter to me whether you're little girl or a serpent and matters a good deal to me said alice hastily but i'm not looking for eggs as it happens and if i was i shouldn't want yours.
