After several years of political crisis, the cards are reshuffled in the Slovak National Council. Veteran PM Robert Fico’s left-wing Smer party finished first, although, not many predicted a bright future for the sovereignist politician after his resignation as head-of-government in 2018. The pro-West liberal Progressive Slovakia party came in second, while the pro-EU social democratic Hlas received the third most votes. Led by ex-PM Peter Pellegrini, the latter party found itself in the kingmaker's position in the government coalition formation process as a result of the long-awaited early parliamentary election in Slovakia. “Far above the Tatras, lightning bolts are pounding” – In our newest podcast episode, Dr. Jaroslav Ušiak from the Matej Bel University guides us through the political storms of Slovakia.

With the help of guest experts and politicians, in the podcast series of MCC’s Centre for Political Science we endeavor to analyze which actors are the real winners of the parliamentary and municipal elections taking place this year in different European countries and what exactly can be considered a real victory after the ballot counts.

On the evening of Sept. 21 and the morning of Sept. 22, 1823, the angel Moroni appeared to Joseph Smith, teaching him and revealing the nearby location of an ancient record written on gold plates — the Book of Mormon. He quoted scripture about the Restoration of the gospel of Jesus Christ and the gathering of Israel. With the approaching 200th anniversary of Moroni’s visits — four total — the Church News podcast features Elder Kyle S. McKay, a General Authority Seventy and Church historian and recorder, and Keith A. Erekson, director of research and outreach for the Church History Department, talking about these historic visitations.

Preemptive – serving or intended to preempt or forestall something, especially to prevent attack by disabling the enemy.

As men, we all too often find ourselves not communicating our plans and not taking action before any number of events. As a result, we can sow discord and distrust with those closest to us.

When we make the effort to be preemptive, we get out in front of a situation by choosing to openly and transparently discuss and share plans, contingencies, and other possibilities that may exist. That level of preparedness not only positively impacts us but those around us, as well.

In this episode of Untaming Masculinity, Dan and Brad dive into the concept of preemptiveness and why there is a remarkable power in choosing to preempt situations both personally and professionally. The guys discuss why choosing to be preemptive creates a level of trust in those around you and how choosing to communicate will enable you to avoid common pitfalls that men find themselves struggling with.

From a teenage enthusiast to a 100-year-old Nobel Prize winner, The Science Show explores the agelessness of wonder.

“We believe it is our obligation to understand and learn from the past,” Elder Henry B. Eyring, then of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles, remarked on Sept. 11, 2007, at an event commemorating the 150th anniversary of the Mountain Meadows Massacre. The massacre is perhaps the grimmest episode in the history of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints — when brewing tensions between early Church pioneers and immigrants traveling through the Utah Territory erupted, resulting in the death of some 100 people. In 2008, the book “Massacre at Mountain Meadows” explored the complicated history of the 1857 event. The sequel, “Vengeance Is Mine: The Mountain Meadows Massacre and Its Aftermath,” is now available. Authors Richard E. Turley Jr. and Barbara Jones Brown join this episode of the Church News podcast to talk about this period in Church history.

Following the publication of the study on the killing of minks during the COVID-19 pandemic, Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen was persuaded to announce a snap parliamentary election. Our guest analyst, Dr. Christian Egander Skov explains that the election campaign centered around issues of economic unpredictability as well as energy and defense security.

Frederiksen’s center-left bloc came out on top securing the most votes. The ruling Social Democrats achieved their best result in two decades, yet they declared a wish to expand political participation outside the confines of the conventional Danish bloc politics. Dr. Skov stresses that Frederiksen’s aim to form a moderate minority government with parties from both blocs might be a tool for responsibility sharing in tough times.

While the center-left Social Liberals obtained one of their worst ever performance, libertarian Liberal Alliance gathered a lot more votes then last time. This is, because the Danish welfare state has come to a turning point and one can witness major transitions in the society primarily due to 21st century challenges such as immigration, climate change, and expanding urbanization – the guest expert argues. Traditional existential values are being questioned and the political formations either keep pace with the economically left-leaning but culturally more conservative majority of the society or retreat to the small-party status.

For further details on the performance of old and new political actors, the rivalry on the right, and the parties’ attitudes towards the EU, please listen to the latest Votes&Seats episode about the early legislative election in Denmark hosted by Bálint L. Tóth from the MCC Center for Political Science.

With the help of guest experts and politicians, in the podcast series of MCC’s Centre for Political Science we endeavor to analyze which actors are the real winners of the parliamentary and municipal elections taking place this year in different European countries and what exactly can be considered a real victory after the ballot counts.
