Mind of State is a podcast where politics and psychology meet. Each episode features lively commentary on current events, policymakers, and the body politic, and how we have arrived at this moment, as observed through both a political and psychological lens. We explore how “mind” impacts “state” — and vice versa. Tune in, as co-hosts Betty Teng and Jonathan Kopp engage in nuanced conversation with experts from the worlds of politics and psychology as well as others from related fields who have studied the complex dynamics between individual/group psychology and political processes. Mind of State is produced by co-founders Betty Teng, Jonathan Kopp and Thomas Singer, together with Alletta Cooper and Jenny Woodward.

Fyre Festival. It was supposed to be Coachella in the keys, a Burning Man in the Bahamas. It turned out to be a massive dumpster fire. And I was there. My name is Seth and I tweeted from the island using the satirical character of William Needham Finley IV. Those tweets went viral and the world watched Fyre burn in real time. As a Fyre expert, I’ve done countless interviews and been in two documentaries on the topic. But there is so much more to this story, which is why I’m starting the Dumpster Fyre Podcast. Through interviews with people involved directly with Fyre, I’ll answer the most burning questions about the millennial on millennial crime of the century. How did Billy McFarland defraud investors out of $27 million dollars? Where did all the money go? What’s the real story behind the dueling documentaries on Hulu and Netflix? How did we get a $5 million IOU from Billy? I’ll cover everything from the planning notebook to the cheese sandwich and more. This is the bizarre, inside story of a dumpster fire that just won’t die. Welcome to Dumpster Fyre, it’s gonna be lit. Visit www.dumpsterfyrepodcast.com for more information.

Peace is not something constructed in a room only by men. It takes a range of voices, perspectives and diverse practices. Seeking Peace is a podcast that explores the role of women around the world in bringing lasting peace to their communities. Women are too often seen as victims of conflict. But they are leaders and often unsung heroes. On this show, we bring you the stories of women breaking gender barriers and changing society. Episodes explore the roles women play in their local communities, in peace negotiations, in politics and more. This podcast is a production of Georgetown’s Institute for Women, Peace and Security. It’s in partnership with the United Nations Department of Peace Operations, and Our Secure Future. It’s produced by Wonder Media Network.
