The Executive Shift Experiment

No Stitch. No Leslie. Just Houston and a federal holiday. For President’s Day, we flipped The Second Shift into The Executive Shift, and Houston went full solo mode. First up… the truth bomb. It’s technically still Washington’s Birthday. Congress never renamed it. Even better? The holiday can never actually land on February 22nd. We mathematically celebrate his birthday without ever hitting his birthday. That feels very on-brand for government. Then there was George Washington winning every single electoral vote. Twice. No campaigning. No attack ads. Just reluctant leadership and vibes. Imagine that today. And we wrapped with the ultimate presidential mic drop. Washington stepping away after two terms when he absolutely didn’t have to. No term limits yet. He just said, “That’s what kings do,” and walked. That one decision shaped executive power for centuries. History. Power. A one-man show. Shift Happened. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

WHAT IF Raymond Hill Imagine what it would be like if that happened Ukraine - History in the Making Emil Juhler When I started the conversation series ”Ukraine - History in the Making” I could have never imagined where this journey would lead me. It all started in March 2023 after I got home from an exchange stay in Chile and felt, that I had to do more for Ukraine, than what I did on my social media accounts and on the streets in the spring and summer of 2022. I think most of us remember that initial period after Ruzzia’s the full-scale invasion of Ukraine. Speaking from a European/Danish point of view it was a time of big fear, desperation and uncertainty, but also a time of high hopes, energy and big solidarity. In the very first conversation of the show with Veronika Netrebenko, she says the following about the feelings of Ukrainians during the Maidan Revolution: ”We understood we gotta fight for it, and it was something totally different, we felt different, we felt that we need to fight for it”.
