Across the defeated Confederacy, there had been an expectation that those who had taken up arms against their citizens would be punished. This did not happen however and instead ex-Confederates were gradually brought back into the fold. Decades later, they managed to cultivate a dangerous mythology that obscured the truth about the nature of the Confederacy and the Civil War in general...Our guest today is Brigadier General Ty Seidule, Professor Emeritus of History at West Point and teaches at Hamilton College in Clinton, New York.

It's the first time we've done a Seasonal Special in a while, but this week we're celebrating the harvest and exploring the history and folklore of Lughnasa and Lammastide.We begin by discussing the Festival of First Fruits and the Eleusinian Mysteries of the Classical World, before getting into the nitty gritty of Lughnasa, or 'The Aseembly of Lugh.' From Irish festivals of games, hand-fasting rituals and ceremonial fires to a PR stunt for the Roman Emperor Augustus and all the way through to the 19th century Gaelic revival, Lughnasa has changed a fair bit over time. We have a brief brush with the Burryman of South Queensferry, then explore the king of the vegetative spirits himself, John Barleycorn and the archetype of the Dying and Rising God. The episode is accompanied by a selection of English poetry, exploring the harvest from the differing perspectives of Robert Herrick, John Donne, Thomas Hardy, Ted Hughes and William Wordsworth. We've also included a live recording of our version of the traditional song 'John Barleycorn' from Black Shuck Festival in 2025. We really hope you find the episode relaxing and enjoyable, and we will be back to reap the season more on Thursday, when Eleanor will be giving a creepy reading of Martin's story The Corn Maiden...Three Ravens is a Myth and Folklore podcast hosted by award-winning writers Martin Vaux and Eleanor Conlon.Released on Mondays, each weekly episode focuses on a historic county, exploring the heritage, folklore and traditions of the area, from ghosts and mermaids to mythical monsters, half-forgotten heroes, bloody legends, and much, much more. Then, and most importantly, the pair take turns to tell a new version of an ancient story from that county - all before discussing what that tale might mean, where it might have come from, and the truths it reveals about England's hidden past...Bonus Episodes are released on Thursdays plus Local Legends episodes on Saturdays - interviews with acclaimed authors, folklorists, podcasters and historians with unique perspectives on that week's county.With a range of exclusive content on Patreon too, including audio ghost tours, the Three Ravens Newsletter, and monthly Three Ravens Film Club episodes about folk horror films from across the decades, why not join us around the campfire and listen in?Learn more at www.threeravenspodcast.com, join our Patreon at www.patreon.com/threeravenspodcast, and find links to our social media channels here: https://linktr.ee/threeravenspodcastREGISTER FOR THE TALES OF SOUTHERN ENGLAND TOURVisit our website Join our Patreon Social media channels and sponsors Hosted on Acast.

If you ever studied modern Chinese history, you likely met the “century of humiliation” in your first class. In 1840, British gunboats shattered the pride and legitimacy of the Qing empire, and the decades of semi-colonization that followed inaugurated a century of reform and revolution — all aimed at restoring an ancient, creaky civilization to unity and to the top of the world. The Kuomintang and the Communist Party told the same story and drew the same conclusion: the mandate belongs to whoever ends the humiliation.In China, history has never been merely academic. Where elections do not exist, leaders seek legitimacy in historical title deeds — which is why the Party still teaches the story in every classroom and invokes it in every speech on national rejuvenation. The battle crossed the Pacific, too. John King Fairbank absorbed the nationalist framework in wartime China and canonized it at Harvard, organizing American understanding of modern China around two dates: 1840 and 1949. He built the field of China studies as we know it, and generations of his students inherited the framework with it, until American scholarship was teaching China's nationalist mythology back to itself — and to Washington, where it still underwrites op-eds casting Xi Jinping as the new emperor. How America tells China's story shapes how America makes China policy.Dr. Alice Miller thinks we have the story wrong. From 1974 to 1990, she was a senior CIA analyst of Chinese foreign policy and domestic politics, and later a division chief supervising analysis of China, North Korea, Indochina, and Soviet policy in East Asia. She is now a research fellow at the Hoover Institution, where she edited and contributed to the China Leadership Monitor from 2001 to 2018. She published as H. Lyman Miller before her gender transition.In part two of our conversation — edited for clarity and brevity — we trace her formation at Princeton under Fritz Mote, the ferocious “Who lost China?” debates of the 1950s, the eternal feud between historians and political scientists, and her heterodox verdict on engagement: it didn't fail — it worked so well that Xi Jinping had to stomp on it. We close with a story of a different kind: her transition in 2006, and the unexpected grace with which the CIA, Hoover, and the Naval Postgraduate School received it. Part one, on her years decoding Beijing for the CIA, is here.Enjoy!LeoMusic: Carnaval Op. 9 No. 18 - “Aveu”, Bishara Haroni, Artlist Classics, Robert SchumannFor quick navigation to the specific sections:* Early sinologist debates about “who lost China?”* The fallacy of “The Century of Humiliation”* The battle between historians and political scientists over contemporary China studies* “How Did We Get China So Wrong?”* An identity transition from Harold to AlicePeking Hotel is a reader-supported publication.

Mike Winner spent a decade DJing Hollywood clubs before turning toward the infrastructure of digital freedom — founder of WINNR Digital, co-founder of the decentralized internet Qortal, and co-founder of the Music & Sky festival. Returning for the first time since 2022, he brings a caution aimed squarely at his own community: purity spiraling, the habit of turning discernment into a cage where every meal, every device, and every dollar becomes a moral exam. Real sovereignty, as he frames it, is less glamorous and far more demanding. It is what you actually own, what you actually think, and the responsibility you refuse to outsource. Nobody holds dominion over all of reality. What you do have is the choice to stop leaking your life into systems that were never yours.(00:00) Nature vs Nurture Cold Open(00:34) Opening Conversation(02:54) Meet Mike Winner(06:19) Imposter Syndrome and Finding Purpose(09:00) Community Healing and Analog Revival(11:47) Building a Sovereign Ranch Hub(14:50) Tech Detox w/o Purity Spirals(17:55) Parenting in a Digital World(25:09) Junk Food Nostalgia and Balance(32:42) Manifestation and Mastering Mind(39:28) Entrepreneurship In The Arena(41:39) Leaving AlphaVedic For Growth(46:22) Cinema As Modern Myth(53:19) NPCs And Ideological Capture(57:47) Building Qortal And NuQloud(01:02:15) PMA and Living Sovereign (01:07:06) Walmart / Amazon Discernment(01:11:45) Nature Is Metal(01:22:00) Barefoot Hiking & Peru Porters(01:28:05) AI And Slowing DownGuest Linkshttps://mikewinner.comThe GNM Weekend — October 9–10, Los Angeles (use code HFTT10)Connect with UsStart the Free 7-Day Self-Esteem ResetFollow us on InstagramJoin our membership Friends of the TruthWatch All Episodes

What happens in the brain when you die? Does your life really flash before your eyes? Do we get to relive our best experiences? In Part 1, Dr Alex George and research scientist Dr Kathryn Bates explore the science of near-death experiences, consciousness and the life review - from the tunnel of light to the latest research on brain activity in the moments after the heart stops. Together, they unpack what neuroscience can tell us about death and dying, and where the science still leaves unanswered questions.No lectures. No easy answers.

What We Were Never Taught — Episode 11: Compatibility Is Built, Not Found We've been taught to believe that the right person will simply “fit.” That when we meet our soulmate, the relationship will feel natural, effortless, and easy. But what happens when conflict emerges? When differences become more obvious? When we start thinking, Maybe we're just not compatible. In this episode of What We Were Never Taught, Dr. Dan challenges the myth that great relationships are simply found. While values, character, and life goals matter, many couples mistake differences and difficulty for incompatibility when the deeper problem may be a lack of relationship skills. We explore how communication, emotional regulation, vulnerability, curiosity, compromise, and repair can help two people build compatibility over time. But there is another psychological danger: the stories we create about each other. A disappointment can become an interpretation. An interpretation can become a belief. And a belief, repeated often enough, can become a lens through which we see the entire relationship. We begin responding to our perception rather than the person in front of us—and sometimes create the very division we feared. So, are you truly incompatible? Or have you simply never been taught how to navigate your differences? Because great relationships aren't found. They're built.

Artists [M] Dudeck and Javi Acevedo share their work on creatively constructing a metamodern art religion. They walk us through a holy book of personal myth---Xenotheology: The Transmedial Scriptures---discussing the process as part of the broader performance of mythopoetic meaning-making. Filmed during the metamodern spirituality lab exploring "sacred art," we talk about the genesis of the project, its personal and cultural significance, what it means and what comes next.

Some of the greatest American heroes are people most of us have never heard of. In today's episode, Ryan talks with retired Brigadier General and military historian Ty Seidule about five remarkable Americans whose stories embody courage, sacrifice, service, and leadership. They also talk about why the people we choose to honor matter, what the renaming of military bases reveals about American history, and why telling the truth about the past does not mean giving up on greatness.Ty Seidule served in the U.S. Army for more than three decades, retiring as a brigadier general in 2020. He is a professor emeritus of history at West Point and served as vice chair of the Congressional Naming Commission, which was tasked with renaming Department of Defense assets that honored Confederates.Ty Seidule is the author of A Promise Delivered: Ten American Heroes and the Battle to Rename Our Nation's Military Bases and Robert E. Lee and Me: A Southerner's Reckoning with the Myth of the Lost Cause.

In this episode, Dr. K unpacks the growing phenomenon of "femcels" and the hidden traps of modern dating. Reacting to a viewer struggling with anxious attachment and limerence, he explains why setting impossible "romcom" standards destroys real-world connection and breaks down the psychological danger of feeding your mind a toxic internet diet. What to expect in this episode: The Myth of "Happily Ever After": Why finding a "soulmate" isn't the finish line, but merely the "seed" that requires years of active cultivation to actually grow into a healthy relationship. Fantasy vs. Reality: How anxious attachment and limerence cause people to fall in love with an idealized projection rather than a flawed, real human being, making it impossible for ordinary partners to measure up. The "Diet of the Mind": Why obsessively consuming "pinkpilled" content, toxic relationship advice, or deep dives into romantic tropes acts as highly processed junk food for your brain, fundamentally altering how you perceive love. Algorithm-Driven Loneliness: Understanding the internet's intense selection bias—why people in happy relationships aren't the ones posting on venting forums, which allows the algorithm to feed you an artificially negative view of the dating pool. The Psychology of Limerence: A deep dive into how childhood dynamics—such as having withholding parents but experiencing one perfect moment of care from a distant third party—create a lifelong, doomed search for a flawless romantic savior. Translating Love: Why relationships often fail not from a lack of care, but from a "communication gap" where partners fail to understand the specific "packages" (like gifts, physical touch, or acts of service) in which the other person has been taught to give and receive affection.

This latest installment of the collaborative series between Fong and Kemp zeroes in on the claim made by right wing media types that racism and bigotry are dead in America, and that white are the only Americans who don't see color. Fong and Kemp challenge these myths and discuss how white fragility frequently makes it impossible to get them to reexamine their myths and become more empathetic towards people who aren't like them.
In this episode, we explore the false dichotomy between the "Good Socialist" and the "Bad Communist." This is the idea that one can separate oneself from anti-communism by dissing communism. However, with the State Department's release of Cuba: The Capital of the 21st Century, targeting anything progressive as "domestic terrorism, it becomes clearer that everyone marginally left is a target. Historically, Black people, whether left-wing or not, are vulnerable to these types of red scares, and thus should be prepared. To help us discuss these dilemmas, we bring on a friend of the show, Dr. Charise Burden-Stelly. She is an Associate Professor of African American Studies at Wayne State University and the author of the book Black Scare / Red Scare: Theorizing Capitalist Racism in the United States. We discuss anti-communism, what it is, the contradictions it creates, and ways to remain principled in combating it. We also look at the way Anti-communism is weaponized to target Black radical movements. This is part 1 of 2. For Patreon subscribers who want to listen to both parts, part 2 is available.

On this week's episode of Local Legends Martin chats with award winning singer-songwriter and progressive artist Richard Dawson. Hailing from England's northernmost city, Newcastle upon Tyne, Richard doesn't much like being pigeon-holed or for his music to be put into a genre, but across this chat he just about surrenders to Martin's insistence that he's a folk musician, and proudly avant garde.Starting with his 2017 album Peasant in particular, he has been on a near decade long run of writing, amongst other things, detailed, tender, thought-provoking story songs as a solo artist, along with experimental jazz as a member of the band Hen Ogledd and experimental rock music with Finnish band Circle.In addition to talking about his career so far and the changing nature of an artist's life in the 21st century, this conversation ranges from family stories of haunting to personal experiences with a UFO, and chats about aspects of Northumberland's folklore including The Laidly Worm of Spindlestone Heugh and the Simonside Dwarves plus much more besides. So gather in close around the Three Ravens campfire for a chat with one of Martin's favourite musicians, who also just happens to be a Three Ravens listener!Three Ravens is a Myth and Folklore podcast hosted by award-winning writers Martin Vaux and Eleanor Conlon.Released on Mondays, each weekly episode focuses on a historic county, exploring the heritage, folklore and traditions of the area, from ghosts and mermaids to mythical monsters, half-forgotten heroes, bloody legends, and much, much more.

Send us Fan MailWelcome back to Two Kens with my good friend, Ken Fong.Every so often we record a conversation that challenges us as much as it challenges our listeners. This is one of those episodes.We begin with a hilarious - but surprisingly insightful - clip from Leslie Jones that opens the door to an honest conversation about race, the myth of colorblindness, code-switching, white fragility, and the stories America tells itself.Then we turn to Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey, where Odysseus is portrayed not as an untouchable hero but as a man scarred by war. It raises powerful questions about trauma, empathy, and whether compassion still has a place in a culture that rewards certainty.Finally, we welcome musician Joseph Tseng, whose remarkable album Shanghai: An American Story explores immigration, identity, family, and belonging.Ken and I aren't trying to win arguments. We're trying to ask better questions, believing that curiosity, empathy, and honest conversation still have the power to change us.Robin D'Angelo - White Fragility: Why It's So Hard for White People to Talk About RacismLeslie Jones on Colorblind White GuysSupport the showBecome a Patron - Click on the link to learn how you can become a Patron of the show.

How did life get started? We all know that the Bible tells us that life got started when God created it. But we have also learned, perhaps in school, or reading the news, that evolutionists believe that life could have started in the distant past all by itself if the conditions were right. Perhaps you have read that scientists can form amino acids in the laboratory.Besides the fact that amino acids are a long way from life, the amino acids made in the laboratory are the wrong kind for life. The idea that life can form spontaneously under the right conditions places modern evolutionary scientists in a very precarious position.One assumption of evolutionary scientists is that the early earth had no oxygen. Oxygen destroys amino acids. Yet geologists tell us that oxidation even in the oldest rocks proves that the earth has always had an oxygen atmosphere. Besides, if the earth didn't have an oxygen atmosphere when the first amino acids formed, that means there was no ozone, a form of oxygen, to protect those amino acids. Amino acids are quickly destroyed by ultraviolet light from the sun. So, you see, with or without oxygen, amino acids can't begin to form. The truth is that the Bible offers the only sensible explanation for the origin of life. As the great scientist Louis Pasteur said, "Life can only come from life." And the Bible tells us that eternal life can only come from the eternal life-giver, Jesus Christ.Psalm 14:1"The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good.”Prayer: Father, in Your wisdom, You have put to shame those who would deny You. Thank You for salvation in Jesus.

Stop Doom-Scrolling! In 2026, the global average screen time has climbed to a staggering 6 hours and 38 minutes a day. We are constantly plugged in, but is it a lack of willpower, or are we just losing a rigged game? Today on the podcast, we sit down with Aditi Mandal to find out. Aditi spent a time working as a UX researcher, designing and making highly engaging digital products. But in 2017, she realized she was falling victim to the very systems she helped build. After embarking on a digital fitness journey, Aditi successfully beat the algorithms, engineering her own screen time down from 6 hours to just 1 intentional hour a day., Now, through her company Take Back Your Time, she coaches adults on how to build sustainable digital habits. We break down the exact mechanics of why we are addicted to our phones, the specific design tricks apps use to keep you scrolling, and the step-by-step toolkit you need to reclaim your attention without deleting the apps you need for work. Whether you're an entrepreneur struggling to focus or just someone looking to reclaim your attention span, Aditi breaks down actionable strategies—from introducing "positive friction" to buying an old-school alarm clock—that actually work in the real world. Key Takeaways from this Episode The UX of Addiction: Why screen addiction isn't your fault—it's the consequence of thousands of engineers designing platforms to capture your attention.

Building a Wellness Business: Aditi's journey of bootstrapping Take Back Your Time, finding her first paying clients, and growing her WhatsApp community. The Myth of Device Addiction: The core issue isn't an addiction to the physical device, but a compulsion to consume content every 10 to 15 minutes. Engineering "Positive Friction": How to make content consumption inconvenient by changing settings like YouTube autoplay, pausing your watch history, and keeping devices in another room. The "Long-Distance" Phone Relationship: Why keeping your phone physically away from you in a backpack or another room creates the necessary pause between a thought and a distraction.

Tackling one of the newest phenomena in aesthetics, this episode of Plastic Surgery Untold dives into "Ozempic breast." Dr. Franco is joined by Dr. Reis and Dr. Weinfeld to unpack why losing the weight doesn't mean losing your options, and how a whole new patient population, often in their 20s, is coming in with deflated breasts and mature-patient problems after dramatic weight loss. Far from having "nothing to do," these patients have more options than ever, from sixth generation implants to preservation techniques, internal bra support, and fine-tuning with products like AlloClae. The key is a thoughtful plan that accounts for skin quality, future changes, and long-term support. In this episode, we cover: Why "lost the weight, lost the boobs, nothing to do" is fiction How rapid weight loss creates unique challenges like thin skin, stretch marks, and volume loss Why sixth generation cohesive implants are a game changer for these patients The addition-subtraction philosophy: augmenting with an implant while lifting or reducing at the same time How the internal bra and absorbable mesh provide long-term support for attenuated tissue Why waiting for a stable weight and planning for future life changes matters The big takeaway: an implant alone usually isn't the answer for the Ozempic breast. Most patients will need some degree of lift or reduction with their augmentation, and with modern techniques like preservation, surgeons can do more with less and set patients up for long-term success on their weight loss journey.
One of our longest episodes ever in which we review the movie of the summer: Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey. We discuss the filmmaker's ongoing battle with his inner clinician, an updated ranking of the filmography, and the odd right-wing backlash facing the movie. Nolan continues from 2023's Oppenheimer his reflection of our own cracked modernity and its broad gesture towards the death of civility, but does The Odyssey maintain its predecessor's craft and evocative core?

Drawing from their own lived experiences, they discuss everything from when to disclose a diagnosis while dating to navigating rejection, communicating with partners, managing physical intimacy, and recognizing relationship red flags. They also share practical advice for building healthy partnerships rooted in honesty, empathy, and mutual support. Along the way, Cheryl and Eileen examine what research tells us about chronic illness, loneliness, and relationship outcomes, while challenging the myth that arthritis inevitably harms romantic relationships. Instead, they argue that although chronic illness can create real challenges, it can also deepen connection, vulnerability, and resilience with the right partner. Above all, they emphasize that the strongest foundation for any relationship is cultivating self-compassion, self-worth, and a healthy relationship with yourself first.

Book a clarity call for Transition Diet Bootcamp: https://live.mucusfreelife.com/bootcamp-apply Are you dealing with brain fog, anxiety, mental heaviness, low vitality, or the feeling that your mind never fully clears? In this video, Prof. Spira breaks down the Mucusless Diet Healing System perspective on brain fog and anxiety, and why these issues may not simply be caused by “nutritional deficiencies.” Instead of looking at brain fog through the lens of B12, iron, protein, calories, macros, or supplements, this video explores Arnold Ehret's deeper concept that many symptoms can be understood through obstruction, systemic constipation, mucus-forming foods, acidosis, and blocked elimination. You'll learn why the body's avenues of elimination matter, why Prof. Spira emphasizes cellular constipation from head to toe, and why the Transition Diet is presented as the practical bridge for moving away from pus and mucus-forming foods. This is a clear introduction to understanding brain fog, anxiety, and vitality through the lens of elimination, transition, and physiological liberation. Inside this video, we cover: Why brain fog and anxiety may not be deficiency problems Arnold Ehret's concept of disease as obstruction What Prof. Spira means by cellular constipation Why pus and mucus-forming foods are discussed as the foundation of obstruction Why the additive principle of nutrition may miss the deeper issue Why supplements, calories, macros, protein, B12, and iron are challenged in this framework How the Transition Diet helps create permanent physiological change Why rational fasting, proper food combining, meal spacing, and elimination practices matter Why opening the avenues of elimination is central to the Mucusless Diet Healing System How Prof. Spira connects brain fog, anxiety, vitality, and physiological liberation If you're serious about learning the Mucusless Diet Healing System and want support applying it in real life, use the links below: Join the Mucus-Free Life Membership: https://go.mucusfreelife.com/join-ytc Join the newsletter: https://bit.ly/mfl-fb-join Mucus-Free Life is an educational platform exploring the Mucusless Diet Healing System.

Key Takeaways Psychedelic therapy is not a standalone solution: Based on his father's experience, O'Connor emphasizes that psychedelic interventions require deliberate preparation and integration to work, warning against the uncritical "cheerleaderism" prevalent in mainstream media. Terence McKenna laid the groundwork for the modern psychedelic renaissance: O'Connor's book, A Short, Strange Trip, chronicles McKenna's 1971 expedition to the Colombian Amazon, framing him as a foundational yet frequently overlooked figure in psychedelic history. Field-based journalism bridges cultural divides: By directly engaging with subcultures like from Bigfoot researchers to Indigenous leaders in the Amazon, O'Connor proves how immersive, genuine reporting fosters connection and nuanced understanding across the many subcultures of humanity.

Living the life of your dreams is very hard work.Paul believes much of that hard work comes from being open (and brave) to listen to new and different ideas — things you may never have considered before — then testing them in your own laboratory of daily living to see if they're true and they work for you.Having the courage to explore and refine your life by doing the hard work of letting go of the stuff that isn't working for you and choosing to allow the new in is a recurring theme in this week's Spirit Gym conversation with Erick Godsey, a Master Coach and teacher of myth, science and philosophy. Remember, the best teachers you'll ever have are the ones who are always challenging you to be your best you, not a clone or cult member!Curious to read more after Paul's conversation with Erick?

The New Discourses Podcast with James Lindsay, Ep. 215 The Nazis had an ideological mission for their own Volk in addition to those we're all more familiar with from the dark stories of history: to transform a widely Christian Germany into a fully Nazi Germany, not just in practice and politics but in belief and commitment. That is, in the language of the Nazis, German Christians, both Catholic and Protestant, had to be transformed into people who accepted the racialist worldview and Fascist organizational principles of National Socialism. In practice, that would mean devastating the real foundations for their faiths, providing them an ersatz intermediate faith called "Positive Christianity," and using it to lead them to full-blown Nazism. The key man tasked with this endeavor was Alfred Rosenberg, the Chief Ideologist of the Third Reich, who wrote the book on it in 1930. The Myth of the Twentieth Century was arguably the Third Reich's second most important book after Mein Kampf, and it presents the "myth of the blood" that all Nazis were eventually to come to believe as an article of unshakeable faith like their leaders. In this episode of the New Discourses Podcast, host James Lindsay returns to the second chapter of The Myth of the Twentieth Century to outline Rosenberg's very New-Atheist-ish effort to undermine the foundations of German Christianity while retaining a mythological Aryan Jesus so that he could complete this task. Join him to see how Nazis really regarded Christianity, especially Catholicism.
