In this killer episode, the Death in Entertainment crew dives mask-first into the chilling true story of Juana Barraza — a Mexican lucha libre wrestler who moonlighted as a serial killer. Known as The Lady of Silence, Barraza body-slammed her way into infamy by targeting elderly women across Mexico City. Was it a tragic backstory, a botched investigation, or just a lethal heel turn? Step into the ring as Kyle, Ben, and Jerii unravel one of the strangest double lives in true crime history. ¡Ay caramba!

As a submissive wife, it's not just your words that reflect respect, it's your face too. Rolling your eyes, sighing, or giving a dismissive look sends a louder message than you think.Ladies, yes, he notices. And while you may not say anything wrong, your expressions can reveal the true posture of your heart.Learning to manage your facial responses is part of cultivating self-control and honoring your husband's leadership. It may not come naturally at first, but with prayer, intention, and practice, it becomes part of the grace you bring into your home.Respect is more than silence, it's softness, even when you disagree.

President Trump is in a rage over his inability to get MAGA to stop talking about the Jeffrey Epstein files. He unleashed a furious Truth Social tirade on it, and then rambled bizarrely about it to reporters for a minute straight. Meanwhile, striking new polls from Quinnipiac and from CNN show wide public dissatisfaction with the whole fiasco—and both show large chunks of Republicans are also unhappy about it, suggesting his shutdown efforts aren't working. Rolling Stone writer Asawin Suebsaeng has a new piece entitled: “Inside Trump's Frantic, Failing Mission to Crush the Epstein ‘MAGA Rebellion.'” It details how efforts by Trump and his lieutenants to get this under control involve all kinds of fraught and complicated intrigues inside the Court of MAGA. So we talked to Suebsaeng about what's really going on here, why it's failing, what's coming next, and how the whole thing reveals Trump's level of contempt for his own voters with uncommon clarity.  Looking for More from the DSR Network?

On this episode of Anchored, Dr. Jennifer Frey shares the story behind her recently published New York Times op-ed, "Students Want the Liberal Arts. Administrators, Not So Much." Frey reflects on her abrupt dismissal as Dean of the Honors College at the University of Tulsa—despite building a demonstrably successful program. She reflects on the tension between student's intellectual needs and college administrators' own view of "success." Dr. Frey emphasizes the need for reform in higher education and the importance of authentic liberal education for a thriving democracy.

I'm exploring the connection between self-advocacy and self-silencing as I head into a break because I'm experiencing burnout myself, which feels perfectly timed for this topic. I challenge you to think about how we constantly tell our kids to advocate for themselves while we struggle to do the same, often because we've been conditioned to believe that self-advocacy is selfish when we're supposed to be sensitive to others' needs. I want you to examine where you've been self-silencing - avoiding conflict, neglecting your intuition, or not sharing your desires - and ask yourself what you'd tell a friend in your same situation, because awareness is the catalyst for change and nothing will shift if we keep putting everyone else's needs before our own.

DJ Lagway Breaks Silence on Injury

Things I Like More As I Get OlderThis was on Reddit. Here are a few examples, what would be one of yours?"Myself.""Silence and people canceling plans – that's foreplay now.""Being at home, being in bed by 11pm, and grocery shopping.""Not having plans.""Having real conversations, no phone, hanging out with myself, and the self respect I have gained over the years with no need to please others. It's like a breath of fresh air.""Not giving a s**t what people think is an incredible feeling.""Birdwatching. Sorry – 'birding'."Things Men Do When They Are AloneThis was from Buzzfeed. We threw in a few of ours as well."I take five decorative pillows off the bed and put them in the closet until the morning of her return.""I cook a package of bacon and save the drippings. I cook basically everything in that fat until it's gone. My wife and daughter are vegetarians.""FINALLY, a chance to clean up without anyone in the way! Turn up the music and bust out the broom and mop and rags! Go outside for a smoke and get to it!""I don't know, but it's not gonna involve pants.""Back in my early 20s, I would immediately pull the mattress off the bed and drag it into the living room, drive to Hooters and grab a giant bucket of wings, then come home and sit on my living room bed eating wings. Now, in my mid-40s, I fire up Farming Simulator and an audiobook."The Best Exercise For SleepAerobic exercise - Workouts that raise the heart and breathing rates, like cycling and running, can make falling asleep by lowering blood pressure and reducing stress. Strength training - Lifting weights or working out with resistance bands can also help you sleep better.Yoga - The practice of stretching and breathing can boost mindfulness and lower stress, as well as relax the nervous system and improve sleep quality.Walking - Even a simple brisk walk in the fresh air can ease stress and anxiety, which can lower cortisol and positively affect sleep quality.Second Date UpdateDerek mat Kayla at a mutual friend's game night. They bonded over their distaste for Monopoly. They met for sushi in S San Francisco. He can't think of anything that would make her ghost.

You are absolutely WRONG about Silence In The Snow. Tonight, Nick and Mike cover what might just be the most contentious Trivium album. One mired by circumstance, member changes, and a changing metal scene from the New Wave of American heavy Metal, to the Octane Metalcore and pre-TikTok influencers telling you not to like this album. But actually how is the music on display? Well, listen and hear Nick & Mike defend this gem.*Samples include "Snøfall," "The Ghost That's Haunting You," and "Cease All Your Fire."

WILL GRAHAM & HANNIBAL LECTER HUNT A KILLER!! Red Dragon Full Reaction Watch Along:   / thereelrejects   Start your online business with a $1 per-month trial when you visit https://www.shopify.com/rejects! RED DRAGON Reaction, Recap, Commentary, Analysis & Full Spoiler Review!! Roxy Striar and Andrew Gordon sink their teeth into Red Dragon (2002), the chilling prequel to The Silence of the Lambs and Hannibal!! Directed by Brett Ratner and based on the novel by Thomas Harris, the film sets the stage for Hannibal Lecter's reign of terror by diving into the case that first brought him down. Edward Norton (Fight Club, American History X) stars as Will Graham, a gifted FBI profiler pulled out of retirement to track down a serial killer known as “The Tooth Fairy.” To catch him, Graham must confront the brilliant and sadistic Dr. Hannibal Lecter—played once again by Oscar-winner Anthony Hopkins (The Silence of the Lambs, The Father) in one of his most iconic roles. Ralph Fiennes (Schindler's List, Harry Potter) delivers a haunting performance as Francis Dolarhyde, a reclusive killer obsessed with transformation, while Emily Watson (Breaking the Waves, Punch-Drunk Love) plays Reba, a blind woman who sparks an emotional conflict within him. The cast also features Harvey Keitel (Reservoir Dogs, Pulp Fiction) as FBI agent Jack Crawford, Philip Seymour Hoffman (Capote, The Master) as sleazy tabloid reporter Freddy Lounds, and Mary-Louise Parker (Weeds, Fried Green Tomatoes) as Molly Graham, Will's wife. Famous and highly searched moments include Lecter's cryptic manipulation from his cell, the terrifying home invasion sequence, and Dolarhyde's dragon transformation imagery—especially the chilling use of William Blake's painting The Great Red Dragon and the Woman Clothed in Sun. With psychological tension, disturbing visuals, and a legacy of terror, Red Dragon cements itself as a key chapter in the Hannibal Lecter saga.

Send us a textIf you've ever wondered about the blurred lines between opportunity and opportunism, "Silver Shadows" delivers a masterclass in navigating relationship dynamics when wealth, age, and attraction collide.When Abby Cunningham catches the eye of aging Hollywood director Andrew Douglas, who believes she's the spitting image of his long-dead love Terry Clarington, what begins as curiosity quickly evolves into a mutually beneficial arrangement. Andrew showers Abby with priceless gifts while she provides companionship and the nostalgic echo of his lost love. But as Gary and others question her motives, we're forced to consider: who's really taking advantage of whom?The episode brilliantly parallels modern controversies about relationships between wealthy older men and younger women, reminding us of figures like Anna Nicole Smith and J. Howard Marshall. Through Andrew's character – a once-influential artist now trapped in a body that's failing him – we witness the poignant reality of aging creative minds and their search for meaning in their final chapter.This isn't just about gold-digging or exploitation; it's about agency and dignity. As Andrew directs his own death scene with cinematic flair, we're reminded that everyone deserves the right to make their own choices until the end, questionable as they might seem to others. Meanwhile, subplots exploring Karen's budding relationship with Larry (who initially pursued Abby) add delicious layers to the neighborhood dynamics.Ready to dive into this vintage primetime gem that tackles issues still relevant today?

Mercedes is already ripe for speculation...but now are we witnessing a turning point for Kimi Antonelli? Why isn't Toto Wolff nipping the rumours in the bud amidst the Verstappen talk?Climb the ladder with me on Patreon: https://patreon.com/lawvsToto Wolff's long-term plan for Kimi Antonelli is being questioned as rumours swirl around 2026. After a string of tough DNFs and mounting speculation about a possible Max Verstappen move to the Mercedes team, talk is starting to grow around KIMI being moved out instead of George Russell; who had been the talk of the town in that department. How has this happened? Mercedes' silence is fueling transfer gossip and self-doubt for their handpicked young star.With the spotlight on George Russell and growing talk of loan deals, the stakes are high for Mercedes as they try to shape their next era. Will they honor their commitment to Antonelli or send him off to boarding school at Alpine...and run the risk of losing him a la Esteban Ocon?#f1 #maxverstappen #georgerussell #totowolff #kimiantonelli #formula1 #formulaone #f12025 #redbullracing #mercedesamg #mercedesf1 #f1news #f1latest #f1updates #f1rumors #f1drama Can't watch the ladder?

Barkley College Remedial Human Sexuality Course: Part 3After Lab One, the students exchange places for Lab Two. Fallatio & Cunnilingus.By zachattack163 and adapted for this platform. Listen to the Podcast At Explicit Novels.Lab One was done, and 6 students reclined in their chairs, in the bliss of post-orgasm. The professors, Phoebe & Antonio Garza, were admiring the success of their well-prepared lesson plan. But they need things to move along and keep the class on schedule. The professors marked some charts as the students participated in Lab One. They were graded on how well they followed both the instruction and the demonstration that the professors provided.Lab TwoThe 12 students were in the same pairs, for this 2nd lab, as they were for the 1st. The partners were as follows:· Erika & Jackson.· Rebecca & Devon.· Alexis & Thomas.· Bethany & William.· Michelle & Bruce.· Elizabeth & Malcolm.Bruce led the way as he got up excitedly, and helped Michelle to her feet before getting her to sit back down on the chair and spread her legs. Michelle was already incredibly wet in anticipation, and she was also very turned on from having just swallowed Bruce's cum, her first-ever. Bruce immediately dove between her legs and began to lick her sweet pussy. As he pushed his finger inside Michelle, Bruce was a little surprised to find how tight Michelle was inside. ‘Wow! She feels like she's never had a cock inside of her,' Bruce thought, ‘I really hope I get the chance to stick my cock inside of her at some point because this tight pussy is going to feel so good.' Michelle laid back and enjoyed Bruce's oral attention, knowing that it wasn't going to take long for her to have an orgasm since she was already so aroused.Everyone else in the class began to switch with their partners and soon the classroom was once again filled with the sounds of people moaning in pleasure.Rebecca was working hard to get much of Devon's huge cock in her mouth and was just marveling at how big he was. ‘Wow, I'm definitely going to have to feel this pussy stretcher in me at some point,' thought Rebecca.Devon was just laying back and enjoying the attention Rebecca was paying to his cock. He had never had a girl touch his cock and now one of the best looking girls on campus was sucking him off. He knew he wouldn't last very long and so he looked down to admire Rebecca's big ass before once again focusing on her big green eyes as she serviced his cock.Jackson was so turned on that he knew he was going to finish very quickly, after Erika put his cock in her mouth. Erika wasn't the best at giving a blowjob but Jackson was so pent up he didn't even care, and looking down behind her head to see her nice round ass. He got distracted as he saw her big tits bouncing while she bobbed on his cock. It was too much for Jackson, and he tapped Erika on the shoulder and moaned, "Oh god, yes!" as he began ejaculating in Erika's mouth. Erika, surprised at the quickness of Jackson's orgasm, quickly began trying to swallow his semen.Alexis was working really hard to get Thomas's fat cock in her mouth but she was having trouble getting past the head. Thomas realizing her difficulty grabbed her head so she would look up at him and told her, "That's okay just keep sucking on my head and looking at me. That will be enough to get me off." She looked up at him with her big brown doe eyes and just continued licking the head of his fat cock.Malcolm decided that he wanted to pay attention to Elizabeth's big breasts first. So he started licking one of her nipples while fondling the other tit, while his other hand got busy between Elizabeth's legs, fingering her. Malcolm still couldn't believe that such a short skinny girl could have such big tits but he realized they were definitely real as he was fondling them. Hearing Elizabeth's moaning getting louder he realized that he should start licking her pussy soon before he made her cum just from fingering her, so he got between her widely-parted legs and began licking away.Bethany was enjoying William's efforts as he licked away at her pussy. ‘Wow! William is pretty good at eating pussy. Definitely better than I would have expected.' Her thoughts were interrupted when she heard a voice behind her."Here, William; let me help you out a bit," she turned around to see Mr. Garza standing behind her. Mr. Garza then reached around and cupped one of Bethany's huge boobs in each of his hands.He then began fondling Bethany's large tits and said, "Wow Bethany you have such nice breasts and I can tell that they are real, which is very nice to see with breasts this large." Bethany just relaxed and enjoyed the sensation of William licking her pussy while her teacher fondled her huge tits in his strong hands. All the sudden the combined pleasure of what the two men were doing to her was too much, and Bethany felt herself began to experience one of the best orgasms she had ever had, as she moaned loud enough for the entire class to hear.Hearing Bethany's orgasmic moans and feeling Bruce's tongue and middle finger inside of her, was too much for Michelle as she started a very powerful orgasm. Bruce felt Michelle's already tight pussy get even tighter on his finger, as she started orgasming and he continued to lick her rock-hard clit through her orgasm.Rebecca's continued assault on Devon's huge cock was too much and he moaned, "Oh please don't stop." Rebecca gave the big cock a few more bobs before she felt his testicles tense up in her hand, and immediately pulled up so just the head of Devon's cock was in her mouth as he began ejaculating.After all the attention Malcolm had given her, and all the stimulation of sex moans going through the room, Elizabeth could no longer take it. She grabbed Malcolm's head and pushed it between her legs and started cumming like crazy, having her legs shake a bit in the process.Alexis was still working on Thomas's fat cock head and her attentions were getting him very close. He told her, "Oh god, Alexis don't stop, you're doing so well. Oh! I'm so close, keep going Alexis." Following his encouragement Alexis started sucking at his cock head harder while her tongue found the sensitive underside of his glans. She was rewarded with a large load of cum very quickly. She worked at swallowing all of Thomas's semen while he continued to cum in her mouth. Eventually, the excess ran down her chin. As his explosions subsided, she gave the underside of his tip one last tickle. Thomas pleaded; “Stop!”Alexis slid back off his tip, causing an audible smacking sound. Then she looked into his eyes with a sultry smile; while slowly scooping his excess spunk from her chin with her finger. Unaware that the entire classroom was watching her, she slowly lifted her frosted finger to her tongue and licked all the icing off, then inserted her wet finger deep into her mouth and rolled her tongue around it. Then she winked at him.Silence continued in the room, until the professor spoke."All right, now that everyone has reached a satisfying orgasm, you are free to leave," Mr. Garza told the class."Now remember if at any point you want to practice what you have learned you are free to practice with one of your classmates," Mrs. Garza reminded the students as they started getting dressed and getting all of their stuff together. “No one is required to do anything outside these structured labs. And please; do not discuss anything from these labs with anyone, even each other. What happens here, stays here. You all want your privacy respected.” When the students were dressed, Mr. Garza pressed the button by the chalkboard, and remotely unlocked the classroom doors.Session Two DismissedAs the students left the classroom, several of them pulled out phones and asked for their lab partner's numbers.Professor Phoebe felt her Antonio come up behind her, and press his once again rock hard cock, against her round ass. He then reached up to cup one of her large tits in each of his strong hands."So what did you think about that lesson?" he asked Phoebe, as he fondled her breasts while rubbing his hard cock against the crack of her large ass. "It certainly looked like you were enjoying yourself when you were sucking on Malcolm's huge cock head. I might have to punish you for that later," he added as he whispered in her ear."As I recall, you enjoy the fact that I enjoy having a cock in my mouth," she responded, as she grounded her ass harder into his cock. "Besides it's not like you weren't enjoying yourself when you were holding on to Bethany's huge tits while William was licking her pussy.""Well I was just following your example," he said to his wife. "Now why don't you go over to the table and bend over so you can receive your punishment.""Yes sir," Phoebe responded to her husband's discipline fantasy, as she moved to bend over the teacher's table while shaking her shapely rear end enticingly. Antonio then walked over to his wife. He admired her firm round ass while rubbing one hand up and down her cheek enjoying the smoothness of her skin. He then brought his hand back to give her a firm but pleasurable smack on her ass. Phoebe yelped slightly as she enjoyed the 'punishment'. Antonio gave his wife's fantastic ass a couple more spanks before bringing his large cock up and smacking his cock against his wife's ass."Oh babe enough teasing I really need it now," Phoebe moaned to her husband, her pussy was practically dripping after the display in the classroom and the teasing spanks from her husband. With very little warning, Antonio quickly shoved his large cock into her pussy."Oh yeah babe give me that big fuck pole!" Phoebe yelled. Antonio had his head back enjoying the fantastic sensations of his wife's tight pussy grabbing his thick cock. He then looked back down to see her nice round ass bounce each time he thrust his cock deep inside of her."Wow baby you just have such a nice ass, I love this view," he said."Here let me show you how you can enjoy the view even more," she said back to her husband as she placed her hand on his hip so he would stop thrusting for a moment. Antonio stopped his thrusting, just leaving a bit of his cock still in his wife and watched as she proceeded to back her ass up on his cock before getting into a rhythm so that she was bouncing her round ass on her well-hung man."Oh yeah babe how's that view? Are you working up a big load for me?" she asked."Oh yeah baby I'm definitely working up a huge load for you in these big balls of mine," he responded."Oh babe, give it to me I want to feel you shoot your nut up inside of me. Come on give me your nut," Phoebe begged. All the pleasure and encouragement was too much for Antonio and he pushed his large cock as far as it would go into his buxom lover, while reaching up to grab her swinging tits in his hands. He then unloaded his pent up cum into her with extreme force."Oh yeah babe, I can feel you shooting it all inside me. I'm going to cum too!" Phoebe wailed as she started having and orgasm. She could feel her pussy grabbing Antonio's ejaculating penis as she had one of the best orgasms of her life. Phoebe couldn't believe how much cum he was shooting into her, Wow he must have really enjoyed the students' display if he's cumming this hard, she thought to herself. Eventually, Phoebe's orgasm wained, and Antonio pulled out his exhausted cock from his sex-goddess wife.Phoebe then turned to look at her man and said, "Wow babe, I thought you shot a lot of cum into my mouth earlier, but that was a huge load. I can still feel it deep in my pussy.""Yeah, I don't know what happened, but it felt so good to shoot that much cum in you. I guess seeing all those students performing oral sex was more stimulation than I realized. I can't wait for these sessions to continue. I especially can't wait until we get to the end of the class and we get an opportunity to fuck the students," he said."Yeah I know what you mean. After seeing all of those girls sucking the boys' cocks I can't wait to try having those young cocks inside me," she said."Well now, time to prepare for the next lesson."Session ThreeDevon greeted his classmates in the hall of the building, He was surprised at being the last student to arrive. His nerd reputation might just took a direct hit. But he was happy to be greeted so warmly by all of them. And especially when Rebecca, his lab partner from last session, winked at him.All of the students were waiting outside the classroom door when the lock buzzed and opened for them.As they filed in and walked down the many steps toward the front, Mr. Garza counted all 12 students, then pressed the button again and the locks clicked. Then the classmates began stripping off their clothes in excited anticipation of what today's sex lesson would hold. Once all the students were completely naked and situated on the sofas, Mr. and Mrs. Garza stood to greet their students completely nude."I want to commend the entire class on both your presentation and deportment in the last session.” Mrs. Garza said. “You all seem to keep very good personal hygiene. That's essential. And you all demonstrated kindness, patience, and encouragement to one another. We can't say enough just how essential that is to positive and pleasurable human sexuality.”“We hope that continues,” Mr. Garza added; “and you all spare us the uncomfortable duty of speaking to you personally about either your hygiene, or your unconstructive interactions with others in the class.”“Now class I'm sure some of you are already anticipating this, but, today we will be talking about sexual intercourse, or what is commonly referred to simply as sex," Mrs. Garza said to the class."I'm sure most of you know this but, sexual intercourse is when the man puts his penis inside the woman's vagina," Mr. Garza said to the class as his own penis had reached full erection from seeing his attractive young female students naked."I'm sure most of you know, sexual intercourse is how a man gets a woman pregnant, but I know all the young ladies in this class are taking their birth control so we won't have to worry about that," Mrs. Garza commented to the class, "and let me tell you young ladies it a very good thing that you are on birth control because feeling a man's penis ejaculating inside of you is an amazing experience.""Another thing to note about sexual intercourse is there are a number of different positions you can have sex in," said Mr. Garza."We believe that it would be too difficult for just the two of us to show you all the different sexual positions. So after the fantastic results of last class period, we decided that we will pair all of you up so that you can show your classmates all the different positions," Mrs. Garza told the class. This caused quite a bit of excitement amongst the students, as they were surprised and intrigued that they would get to have sex with their classmates so quickly.Mr. Garza addressed the class, "so what we will do now is pair each of you with a new partner. Once we pair you with your partner we want the two of you to get together and start arousing each other. Once all of you are properly aroused for sex then we will let you know what position you and your partner are going to demonstrate for the class."Lab Three"Now let's figure out what these partnerships are going to be," Mrs. Garza said excitedly. "Now, let's have;· Rebecca & Bruce.· Bethany & Devon.· Erika & Malcolm.· Alexis & Jackson.· Michelle & William.· Elizabeth & Thomas.Well these all seem like good partnerships. Now get together with your assigned partner, and remember what we learned from our previous lessons, and use those techniques to arouse your partner, sexually. Alright, chop chop; go get together and find a place to sit with your partner." All the students got up from their sofas and proceeded to meet up with the student they had been partnered with. For most of them, their bashfulness came back, and this was a reality check. They were expected to immediately be affectionate and spontaneous, without the direct coaching of the professors, to blame it on.Mr. and Mrs. Garza started to walk around the classroom to observe how their students were preparing for the next part of the lesson. Eventually, the 6 pairs found ways to get past all inhibitions, and the foreplay was well underway.Jackson was gently sucking on one of Alexis's pert nipples, while one of his hands was busy between her legs fingering her. Alexis, for her part, had her hand wrapped around Jackson's erect cock, and was slightly stroking it, but seemed more occupied with what Jackson was doing to her.Bethany and Devon were intensely making out, while Devon had one of his hands fondling Bethany's huge breast, Bethany was busy using two hands to stroke Devon's long, fat cock.Michelle had already taken William's cock in her mouth, and was giving him a relaxed blowjob, while also having one of her hands in between her own legs, rubbing her clit, to make sure she was prepared for her first cock.Thomas seemed to have a similar idea to Michelle, as he was in between Elizabeth's legs licking away at her pussy while the short, stacked student gently fondled her 34D breasts. Thomas also had one hand wrapped around his thick cock, to make sure it stayed hard for Elizabeth.By far, one of the most interesting ways the students were practicing foreplay was Rebecca and Bruce. Rebecca had positioned her backside so that she was grinding her large, fat ass into Bruce's cock while he had one hand reaching around grabbing one of Rebecca's firm 34B breast while his other hand was reached around, busy between her legs fingering her very wet pussy.Finally they observed the last couple, as Erika had Malcolm's very fat cock head in her mouth, and seemed to be sucking on it, quite successfully. Not to be outdone though, Malcolm had one hand busy between Erika's legs, as he eagerly fingered her, while using the other hand to hold onto, and gently massage one of Erika's large, heavy tits.As they watched their students please and arouse each other, Mrs. Garza reached out to grab hold of her husband's cock, to find it as hard as she could ever remember feeling it. She gave her husband's hard 9-inch shaft, several short strokes before she addressed the class again."Alright, now that everyone seems properly aroused, I think it's time to proceed to the next part of the lesson." Her ‘professor' voice seemed to bring the students out of a sexually induced stupor, and they all turned to pay attention to their buxom teacher."Now the first position we are going to demonstrate is called the missionary position. This is one of the most common positions in the world, and is very popular. Now for this position the woman lies on her back with her legs spread, while the man gets in position on top of her, so they are face-to-face. Once the man is in position between the woman's legs he slides his penis inside of her. In this position he is free to kiss the woman on her lips, or if he so desires he can pay attention to and kiss her breasts; or sometimes just to look into her eyes.”The six paired-off couples continued to fondle each other while the lecture continued; “Now since the woman is underneath the man, she doesn't have the ability to move as much, but she can still kiss and make out with the man. Also, something that both partners find enjoyable in this position is when the woman wraps her legs around the man and brings his hips closer to her. This helps to pull the man's penis deeper inside the woman, and lets the man know how much she is enjoying him," Mrs. Garza told the class."Now let's see who should our first couple be? I think that we will have William and Michelle start us off with our demonstrations."

Gracie Kramer, former D1 UCLA gymnast and national champion who famously scored a perfect 10 her senior year, joins Victoria to share what was really going on behind the scenes. For the first time publicly, Gracie bravely opens up about her eating disorder and the silent struggles that came with the pressure to be perfect.

Gracie and Victoria also get candid about navigating beauty standards as content creators, the pressure to have the “Instagram face,” and why they've chosen to opt out in order to show up authentically.

Day 2 of 57 | Mind Empowerment: Choose Your Conversations Wisely

It's been almost a year since @samanthaponder was abruptly fired by ESPN. Since then, she has been in a self-described hibernation…until now. This is not an interview, it's a conversation. It's Sam's story. Her story of why she believes she was fired, how that awful moment prompted endless self-reflection…changing her life in the most beautiful ways. Being fired helped her marriage, helped her relationship with her kids, changed her perspective on so much, and strengthened her beliefs in many other ways. This is about the reality and insanity of the world today, and Sam's choice to now live in this world differently - with purpose, passion, and so much love. In this conversation, Sam is as vulnerable and self-aware as anyone I've ever had on my show…it's incredible, and inspirational. Full disclosure…Sam and I have been friends for almost 15 years. Our first connection was our last names (The Steele Sisters!) and now, I truly do consider her a sister for life ❤️ Her faith inspires me more than I can describe. Her prayers & support have gotten me through so much, and it's been beautiful to see her grow as a mother, and as a woman. I am so very proud of how she has chosen to handle such a difficult situation, and proud to call her a friend forever!

  The Healing of Silence Shedding Your Trauma Secrets 'ask dorothy' The WISDOM podcast  Season 5  Episode 71   "No one spoke about their feelings, their pain, their grief. It was all swept under the carpet - like it didn't exist." ~ Keeping trauma a secret has real consequences. The research is clear. Trauma memories that you keep a secret, that you never speak about... can lead to increased psychological and physical problems, including a heightened and overactive stress response, bouts of unexpected and often uncontrollable anxiety and fear when you are triggered by the past, shame, self-isolation, and difficulties forming and maintaining healthy relationships. Keeping trauma a secret definitely hinders the healing process and creates a sense of ongoing victimization. In this episode, the real life stories of how damaging it is to keep trauma a secret and my best recommendations for how you can begin to name the truth and to speak about it in a way that will help you effectively heal. *This episode contains sensitive content.   + Our NEW 30 Day Masterclass has landed ~ #30DaysofPresence ~ It has a different vibe, a fresh new approach and it's the perfect complement to that sweet mid-summer magic that we all want to hold onto. We've crafted this 30 Day Masterclass ~ to be insightful, easeful and accessible, meaning you can fit it into your daily life - no prior experience is needed ~ just a willingness to show up for yourself. 5-10 minutes per day is all you need to cultivate your presence practice.

Her story proves women are stronger than their past, and worthy of a powerful futureBIO: Six years ago, I made the bold decision to break my silence and share my story live on Facebook—my triumph over domestic violence.That moment wasn't just about speaking my truth—it was about reclaiming my power, confidence, and future. It became the catalyst for my life's mission—helping other women do the same.I know what you may be going through—feeling trapped, powerless, and afraid of what's next. But I also know the freedom, confidence, and strength that come when you choose to break free.Why I Do This WorkMy story was not just about survival– it was about finding my purpose. My healing journey led me to mentorship, self-discovery, and renewed faith, and I realized that my calling was to guide others on their own path toward freedom.Now, as a Women's Empowerment Coach, Speaker, and Podcast Host, I've dedicated my 28-year career in leadership, coaching, and sales to helping women:1. Break free from self-doubt and limiting beliefs2. Rebuild confidence and rediscover their voice3. Step into their purpose and create a life of abundanceThrough my faith-driven coaching programs, the Let's Break the Silence podcast, and my speaking engagements, I help women embrace their God-given strength and step into the life they were meant to live.Every woman deserves to live with confidence, self-love, and purpose.

If you've ever struggled with chronic stress, poor sleep, anxiety, or burnout—this episode might just change your life. I'm sitting down with Jim Poole, CEO of NuCalm, to explore the groundbreaking neuroacoustic technology that's helping thousands of people around the world reset their nervous systems—without drugs or side effects.Jim explains how NuCalm works at the intersection of physics, mathematics, and neurobiology, using patented algorithms and biosignal processing to guide the brain into states of deep relaxation. We get into how it's used to decelerate brainwave frequencies, balance the autonomic nervous system, and bring the body back into homeostasis. This is next-level nervous system hygiene, backed by clinical research and used by elite athletes, CEOs, Navy SEALs, and trauma survivors alike.We also talk about the physiological mechanics of stress, the importance of vagus nerve stimulation, and why breathwork, cold plunges, and psychedelics often fail to address the chronic baseline tension most of us live with. Jim shares insights on trauma recovery, why traditional talk therapy can fall short, and how we can retrain the brain to unlearn suffering.This conversation was incredibly eye-opening. If you're looking for a safe, effective, and science-backed way to reclaim your mental clarity, energy, and sleep—NuCalm might be the missing link.

Revelation 8 introduction: a half hour of silence...

Have you ever wondered how your voice could spark change and uplift an entire community?This episode is a powerful reminder of how sharing our stories can break cycles of silence, expose injustice, and amplify voices that are often overlooked.

Welcome back to Brown Noise Sleep Sounds, the podcast where we explore calming sounds and simple tools to help you sleep better, focus deeper, and breathe easier.I'm your host, and tonight we're talking about something simple—but surprisingly powerful: the box fan.If you or someone you love lives with ADHD, you know how hard it can be to turn the mind off at night.Racing thoughts, sensory sensitivity, and an overactive brain can all make sleep feel impossible.But a humble box fan might be more helpful than you think.Box fans create a consistent, low-frequency hum—very similar to brown noise.That deep, steady sound helps drown out distractions, from outside traffic to creaky floors to the inner monologue in your head.For people with ADHD, the brain is always scanning—always alert. Silence can actually feel uncomfortable, even overwhelming.But a fan's sound creates what researchers call an auditory cocoon—a blanket of sound that gives the brain permission to settle.It's not just about blocking noise. It's about giving the ADHD brain something predictable to latch onto.That gentle, unchanging hum provides a sense of safety and routine, which helps regulate the nervous system and calm the body enough for sleep.Many people say they fall asleep faster, stay asleep longer, and even wake up feeling more rested when they use a fan.It's simple. It's inexpensive. And it works.So tonight, as you lie down, take a moment to notice how the sound of the fan fills the room.Let it carry your thoughts away, soften the edges of your day, and create a space where your mind can finally rest.Thanks for listening to Brown Noise Sleep Sounds.

Welcome to the Today is the Day Changemakers Podcast. How can speaking with true intention toward ourselves and others not only calm the ego, but nourish the spirit?Today on Today is the Day Changemakers, I'm joined by Kalyani Pardeshi, a multi award-winning author, TEDx speaker, and Canada's only certified Flowcess Trainer. Kalyani helps people embrace their true selves by identifying and dissolving two often-ignored causes of burnout: self-bullying and living outside their intrinsic motivators.Her powerful book, Beyond the Inner Critic: Understanding and Conquering Your Conscious and Unconscious Bullies, won the International Impact Award for Self-Help within four months of publication. She's been featured on CTV Morning Live, Global News Calgary, and QR Calgary Radio, and continues to inspire schools, organizations, and communities across North America.Today's episode dives into how seemingly harmless jokes or offhand comments—especially when directed inward—can do lasting harm. Kalyani shares how both external bullying and the inner critic shaped her journey, and how presence, self-awareness, and accountability can become tools for personal and collective healing.Before we dive in, don't forget to subscribe to the Today is the Day Changemakers YouTube channel and follow us on Facebook and Instagram @TodayIsTheDayLiveToday is the Day is more than this podcast—It's a movement rooted in clarity, courage, connection, and impact.Through coaching and consulting, I help individuals and teams find clarity of focus, the courage to move forward, and the connections that lead to growth.

In this follow-up episode of Wine Chats, we trade in feelings for facts as we unpack the shocking laws and statistics that continue to silence women around the world.From forced marriage and hijab laws in Iran, to education bans and public silence enforced by the Taliban in Afghanistan, this episode is a raw look at how institutional gender oppression still exists in 2024.

In today's episode, we're pulling back the curtain on a cultural trend that might seem harmless, but actually functions as a form of social control: the "Karen" meme.While it may have started as a way to call out rude or entitled behaviour, it's morphed into something much darker—something that often punishes women for speaking up, setting boundaries, or simply taking up space. Especially as they age.Drawing on personal experience and research, April unpacks how the Karen label is weaponized to silence assertiveness in women, while men exhibiting the same behaviours are often rewarded or even celebrated.What We Explore in This Episode:

Today on Mea Culpa, I'm joined by Vicky Ward, New York Times bestselling author, podcaster, documentary host and producer, and former CNN Senior Reporter, for an unfiltered conversation on Trump's authoritarian grip, Elon Musk's chaotic political ambitions, and the terrifying consequences of unchecked power. We unpack how Trump has surrounded himself with unqualified loyalists, and why Musk's third-party movement could merge tech oligarchy with MAGA populism. From the deadly floods in Texas to America's collapsing global credibility, we expose the cost of cruelty, the silence of Democrats, and what happens when spectacle replaces substance. Plus, Vicky discusses her new book, “The Idaho Four: An American Tragedy,” co-authored with James Patterson.
