Let me ask you something. When an audition lands in your inbox, what is your first reaction? Is it excitement? Or is it, oh no. Not another self-tape. If it is the second one, we need to talk about that. Because that reaction means your nervous system has started associating auditions with danger instead of play. With burden instead of opportunity. And any time we get the chance to act, it should feel like a yes moment. If it does not, it might be time to pause and look at what is actually happening. It Is Not Just Tiredness So many actors feel ashamed admitting how exhausting self-tapes are. And I get it. But here is what I want you to hear. It is okay that you find them exhausting. What it means is that we need to take really good emotional care of ourselves so they do not feel so depleting every single time. My mom used to say, you cannot give from a dry well. I have no idea if that is a Dutch expression or just a her thing, but she was right. And I have watched actors cry after their self-tapes because they did 27 takes, or obsessed over tiny moments, or felt physically sick when the audition notification came in. That is not a performance problem. That is a nervous system problem. Self-tapes are not just acting challenges. They are nervous system events. What Perfectionism Actually Does Watching yourself on repeat trains your brain to search for flaws instead of truth. Instead of those moments of magic that actually make people stop and pay attention. Here is what I notice. The earlier takes usually have the life in them. The later ones get more controlled, more manipulated, more fearful, because you are trying to get it right. And trying to get it right kills the thing that made you interesting to begin with. Perfectionism disconnects you from spontaneity. And spontaneity is what is so brilliant about acting. I never allow myself to do more than four takes. Absolute maximum. I really try to cut it off at three. Because endless takes teach your nervous system that you cannot trust yourself. And the one thing I need to know, the one thing I keep coming back to, is that I can trust me. Before You Hit Record Avoid doom scrolling before auditions. Regulate your nervous system first. Meditation, breathwork, movement, music, prayer, laughter, more interaction with people you love. Whatever grounds you. Because you cannot create freely from a dysregulated body. The most creative I can ever be is when my nervous system feels settled. And here is the thing I had to learn the hard way. One audition or callback or screen test does not decide your destiny. It is one audition in a lifetime of auditions. Careers are built through consistency, resilience, relationship, and repetition. Not through the perfect take. The Bottom Line Self-tapes do not have to become emotional punishment. But there is a real tendency for them to go that way if you have a habit of emotionally punishing yourself. You are allowed to protect your nervous system. You are allowed to enjoy acting again. You are allowed to be you in the most organic form you can be. That is where the connection lives. That is what casting directors are actually looking for. Not the controlled version of you. The present one. Want to Keep the Conversation Going? If you are not on the mailing list, please get on it. There are so many things coming up over the summer, acting classes, voiceover classes, weekly classes, some as low as five dollars. And as I always say, stay safe, treat yourself real well, and give your nervous system a hug.

The I-told-you-so phase of Tony Fauci's meteoric collapse hits live television as Pat McAfee interviews Steelers QB and vaccine truth-teller Aaron Rodgers about "what's exciting for the upcoming season." Rodgers goes OFF for 5 minutes on Tony Fauci, his cowardice before Congress, the danger he's caused so many millions of people - and ESPN to their credit does not break away. Enjoy today's timely segment "Things Whey Wished They Hadn't Said" as we go back to hear hack Chris Cuomo rail on Rodgers for stupidly taking "horse paste" only to then say he was taking it, too.

#BarryLong #AndrewCohen #tantra  #spirituallove  #manandwoman The 1st of August 2026 marks the 100th anniversary of Barry Long's birth. A century after his birth, Barry Long's unique body of work continues to reach new people, offering practical guidance and helping to transform lives around the world. To mark this centenary, we are releasing a recording previously available only as a paid product. In the recording, Barry publicly announced that he is a tantric master and speaks directly about the meaning and responsibility of that declaration.~Summary:This episode is drawn from an interview recorded during Andrew Cohen and Barry Long's second meeting. Andrew had heard about Barry intermittently for nearly ten years before finally meeting him in 1997 at Barry's country home north of Byron Bay, where Andrew had been teaching nearby. Their first encounter was warm and respectful, prompted by Andrew's long-standing curiosity about this enigmatic teacher. When they met again in 1998, Andrew questioned Barry closely and intelligently about his teaching on love between man and woman.Barry Long presents the loving union of man and woman as a spiritual path through which an inner realisation of God may be embodied in existence. He distinguishes making love from sex, describing sex as driven by excitement, fantasy, emotional need and self-interest, while true lovemaking requires presence in the body, surrender of personal desire and the intention to love rather than to obtain pleasure. Absolute honesty between partners is essential: both must expose resentment, emotional projection, sexual selfishness and the subtle ways they undermine one another, so that the ego gradually loses its authority. Barry also distinguishes between realising God inwardly, beyond existence, and realising God in existence through love, with man and woman understood as different but complementary expressions of the divine.Speaking as a self-described Western tantric master, Barry presses that such teaching must be lived, embodied and communicated openly, without secrecy, exploitation or abuse. Ultimately, spiritual relationship is a movement towards simplicity, harmony and tenderness, in which personal striving falls away and love is expressed through presence, honesty and the recognition of the divine in the other.~Source: Recorded early summer 1998.

What happens when you put us in a room with a pair of hilarious, talented twin sisters who finish each other's sentences, constantly tease one another, and are chasing their dreams in the music industry? Absolute chaos—and we loved every second of it. Joining us from New York City is the dynamic pop duo Twin City, fraternal twin sisters Anjali and Bhavani Piti, whose infectious personalities, incredible chemistry, and passion for music immediately make this one of our most entertaining interviews yet. Before we even begin, the competition starts with a hilarious game of rock-paper-scissors to determine which twin will receive Pol's famous Armenian Coffee Reading tomorrow. The game may be over in seconds, but the playful sibling rivalry continues throughout the entire conversation, giving us plenty of laughs along the way. We dive into what it was like growing up with Indian and German heritage, being born and raised in New York, and sharing a bond that only twins can truly understand. From discovering they're actually different heights after years of assuming they were exactly the same to talking about their unique personalities, family dynamic, younger brother, and life together in Manhattan, the sisters open up about the experiences that shaped both their lives and their music. Of course, we couldn't wait to talk about their upcoming debut album, Fantasy Love, a dreamy dance-pop project years in the making. They share how they developed their signature cinematic pop sound, why they finally felt ready to release a full-length album, what inspires their songwriting, and how they collaborate as sisters without letting competition get in the way. We also learn the surprising story behind the name Twin City, along with some of the very different names they almost chose before finding the perfect fit. The conversation takes another exciting turn as they reveal what it was really like auditioning for American Idol in front of Katy Perry, Luke Bryan, and Lionel Richie. We compare audition stories, swap behind-the-scenes experiences, and share plenty of laughs as Pol tells his unforgettable American Idol story that still makes us laugh years later. From waiting all day for auditions to handling rejection, we talk honestly about perseverance, believing in yourself, and why success in entertainment is often about showing up again and again. As always, the conversation quickly expands beyond music. We chat about living in New York City, balancing creativity with business, social media, TikTok, vintage fashion, sustainable shopping, vegan living, independent artistry, open mic performances, and navigating today's ever-changing entertainment industry. Along the way, Pol shares heartfelt advice about staying authentic, embracing vulnerability, and allowing opportunities to find you instead of trying to force every outcome—a conversation that becomes one of the most meaningful moments of the episode. Naturally, there are plenty of unexpected detours only UNDRESSED can deliver. Between celebrity stories, reality television, couture fashion, Carrie Underwood, the Real Housewives, viral TikTok trends, outrageous one-liners, and our signature off-the-rails humor, this episode perfectly captures the unpredictable energy that makes our conversations so much fun. If you love discovering rising artists before everyone else does, hearing behind-the-scenes stories from the entertainment industry, and laughing through every unexpected tangent, this is an interview you won't want to miss. And trust us... after getting to know Twin City you'll definitely want to come back for one twin's Armenian Coffee Reading that could reveal what the future has in store.

Absolute Divine Providence

Absolute Divine Providence

Der spanisch-schweizerische Star-Architekt Santiago Calatrava gilt als einer der Berühmtesten seines Fachs. Am 28. Juli feiert er seinen 75. Geburtstag.

Stewart Alsop sits down with Daniel Freed, forty thousand words deep into a book that ties together consciousness, totalitarianism, archetypes, and religion, and the two spend the conversation tracing how those threads connect. They work through Jungian archetypes as behavioral blueprints embedded in stories across generations, unpacking the father, mother, and son roles and what they reveal about tradition, potential, and the individual. From there they get into Jordan Peterson's model of storytelling as a defense against totalitarian thinking, detour through Buddhism, Taoism, and the idea of the absolute, and Daniel walks through his own attempt to prove the limits of representing consciousness using axioms borrowed from math and logic, including Cantor's diagonal argument. The back half moves into Daniel's math and computer science background, touching on David Hilbert, Von Neumann, combinatorics, and complexity theory, before wrapping up with a look at Stewart's hardware prototyping experiments.Timestamps00:00 Introduction to archetypes, Jung, and why psychologists write dense books00:05 Mother, father, and son as story roles; tradition, potential, and the individual00:10 Totalitarianism, narrative architecture, and Peterson's four degrees of freedom in a story00:15 Objects, relational properties, and why the thing-in-itself breaks down under scrutiny00:20 The absolute, the Tao, and consciousness as a limit you can't directly represent00:25 A proof sketch against representing consciousness; diagonal arguments and formal limits00:30 Relevance realization, Popper, and why consciousness may resist full scientific modeling00:35 Applying the story model to groups: how collective narratives can become totalitarian00:40 Egregores, faith vs belief, and how ideas spread through modern institutions00:45 A turn into math: computer science, injury, Hilbert, and the power of axioms00:50 Quantum math, Von Neumann, and complexity theory as problem reductionKey InsightsArchetypes work like compressed behavioral data. Daniel frames archetypes not as arbitrary symbols but as patterns tested across generations of storytelling — when a story trains believers to kill the father figure and chaos follows, more value gets placed on the father and tradition over time, and the same logic explains why the mother figure comes to represent potential and the son comes to represent the individual.The son-outranks-the-father pattern underwrites Western individualism. Daniel argues that across traditions, the hero figure eventually outranks the established order, and this is the root of ideas like free speech and presumption of innocence — a fundamentally anti-utilitarian stance since it values the single person over the group's interest.Jordan Peterson's four-part story architecture doubles as a defense against totalitarianism. What is, what should be, the path between them, and the unknown or chaos form the minimum structure needed for a conscious being to experience anything as new. Daniel took this framework and applied it to group narratives, showing how holding one element of a group's story fixed while individuals change creates the conditions for totalitarian control.Every property is relational, so there's no "thing in itself." Drawing on Nietzsche, Daniel walks through the idea that qualities like hardness or mass only exist as effects on other things, which means an object stripped of all its relations has nothing left to define it.Daniel built a formal argument for why consciousness can't be fully represented. Using three axioms about distinctions resting within "respects" and borrowing Cantor's diagonal argument, he shows that certain respects can't have a ceiling, meaning any total representation of consciousness runs into the same problem uncountable sets do.Faith and belief are distinct but feed each other. Stewart draws out the difference — belief as propositional, faith as more emotional and fundamental — and Daniel agrees that propositional belief tends to translate into faith once people start acting it out.Daniel's path ran from computer science to math because of a wrist injury. Unable to type, he shifted toward math and ended up carrying over proof techniques from complexity theory and combinatorics into his philosophical work, citing David Hilbert's method of reducing ideas to rigorous axioms as a direct influence on how he now approaches philosophy.

Regresa el Cuartucho y no podíamos estar más contentos de acoger en esta ocasión a uno de los guionistas más importantes en la historia del cómic: Garth Ennis.

Además, regresa la invasión más loca de Youtube, con los amiguetes de Idiocracia, con quienes repasaremos algunos de los momentos más absurdos en las películas de superhéroes. ACTUALIDAD El presentador más destacado (y único) de nuestro cuartucho, el Hombre Máquina, regresa para ponernos al día con la actualidad que sacude al mundo del cómic. Desde eventos como la San Diego Comic-Con o el Mad Horror, pasando por grafología de los Absolute y hasta la reciente polémica con la extinción del formato físico. GARTH ENNIS Nos reunimos con el maestro Garth Ennis durante las últimas Jornadas del Cómic de Avilés, donde, en un pub irlandés y acompañados de unas buenas cerves, compartimos charla con uno de los guionistas más destacados y prolíficos del noveno arte. Repasaremos la trayectoria de este creador, responsable de éxitos tan notables como Predicador o The Boys, pasando por sus trabajos en El Castigador y llegando hasta sus imprescindibles historias bélicas. IDIOCRACIA Regresan Toni y Fer de Idiocracia, los cinéfilos más locos y sin filtros que habitan el mundo de YouTube.

We talk about the Bible verses that changed Rick Warren's mind about women in church leadership positions as well as the feud between him and the Souther Baptist Convention.  What happens when you let your wife produce the podcast and you threaten to fire her during the show? Absolute chaos!  In this episode, we're joined by special guest producer Lyndsey to break down everything from the marital magic of "chore play" and listener voicemails, to Rick Warren and the Southern Baptist Conventions split over women in church leadership, and why rigid church cultures struggle with nuance.  Plus, we take a detour through ancient text interpretations, first-century euphemisms, and what it really feels like to step into a brand new church community after a decade of leading the old one. 00:00 - Meet the Producer: Lyndsey Joins the Show 03:00 - Chore Play: The Secret to Romance? 10:15 - Questions with Quaid & Catching Up with Scott 17:30 - The SBC vs. Saddleback: Rick Warren and Women in Leadership 37:00 - First Vagilonians and Linguistic Rabbit Holes 51:00 - The Brittleness of Deconstruction and Church Transitions 1:05:00 - Spotting Cult Tactics and Managing Nuance SUBSCRIBE & SHARE us this week!Contact Us: brosbiblesbeer@gmail.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Leave Us A VoicemailYouTubeSimpleCastSpotifyApple PodcastsXInstaWe Should Know Better is: Zack Krater & Andy McCraw Find us wherever fine podcasts are distributed.

Send us Fan MailAlpe d'Huez doesn't forgive anyone, and that's exactly why this day hit so hard. We're back with our Tour de France daily recap, breaking down a mountain stage that looks short on paper but feels enormous once the climbing begins. The breakaway forms, the chase groups fracture, and with about 10 miles left the yellow jersey sits minutes back. Then Tadej Pogacar hits a gear that makes the gap feel imaginary, picking riders off one by one and turning a messy finale into a clean, terrifying display of climbing control.We talk through what made the move so decisive, from timing and pacing to how the road itself shapes the racing. Alpe d'Huez's 21 numbered switchbacks create natural reset points and launch pads, and we dig into why those hairpins matter when everyone is on the limit. We also highlight Adam Yates's bounce-back ride, how a teammate's pull can steady the effort on the steepest ramps, and what it looks like when the best climber in the race treats a legendary ascent like a rehearsal.There's history baked into every corner here, including Dutch Corner and the way fans transform the mountain into a tunnel of noise. That energy can be electric, but it can also get dangerous. We cover the late crash involving a support vehicle braking to avoid spectators, and why crowd control becomes part of the conversation every time the Tour de France returns to its most iconic climbs. With the overall win and key jerseys looking close to locked, we're also watching the real remaining drama: who takes second and third on the general classification podium.If you're following the Tour, love cycling strategy, or just want a fast, lively breakdown of the biggest moments, hit play.

Chelsea Spieker präsentiert das Morning Briefing.

In the world of global credit and event-driven investing, there are few firms that have been both quietly competitive, whilst simultaneously successful and long-standing.  Founded over 40 years ago, Davidson Kempner may not be a household name, but they have navigated cycles by identifying the opportunities which emerge from dislocations, and complexity when the power between borrowers and lenders shifts.  In this conversation, we discuss if it's possible to assess where we are in the economic cycle. Tony then disentangles the term “private credit” and explains where he believes blockages and problems exist.  He talks about the interdependence of private equity and private debt, and why he thinks the market may be underestimating the time needed to work through these issues.  He explains where he sees capital is as scarce and where it has been abundant, and what that means for risk-taking.  Finally, he discusses why Europe may have less growth but has many opportunities, why lending in India appeals, and most interestingly why we may be in “a golden age of absolute return.”  The Money Maze Podcast is kindly sponsored by J.P. Morgan Asset Management*, IFM Investors, World Gold Council and LSEG.*During the episode we cite J.P. Morgan Asset Management as Europe's leading active ETF provider by assets under management.

The Taiping Army is riding high. Having finally broken two massive, three-year-long sieges over the course of a single summer, ultimate victory seems within their grasp. Yet, that taste of triumph acts like blood in the water. The lifting of the sieges removes the one thing that had been holding this fractured movement together: sheer external pressure. For three years, the East King has been rehearsing one demand: the same title as the Heavenly King. Absolute recognition, absolute parity - the promotion he believes he's duly owed. Now with the pressure off, he's willing to do anything to get it, even summon the voice of God Himself.Time Period Covered:Dec. 1853–Sep. 1856 CE Major Historical Figures:Taiping Heavenly Kingdom:Hong Xiuquan, the Heavenly King [1814–1864]Yang Xiuqing, the East King [c. 1821–1856]Wei Changhui, the North King [d. 1856]Qin Rigang, the Yan King [1821–1856]Shi Dakai, the Wing King [1831–1863]Xiao Chaogui, the West King [d. 1852]Feng Yunshan, the South King [d. 1852]Hu Yihuang, the deposed Yu King Qing Dynasty:Zeng Guofan, founder of the Xiang Army [1811–1872]Xiang Rong, Qing commander of the southern siege camp at Nanjing [d. 1856]Tuoming'a, Manchu commander at Yangzhou Major Sources Cited:Michael, Franz, and Chang Chung-li.

What happens when The Rizzuto Show tries to remember everything that's happened so far this year? Absolute chaos.The crew attempts a halfway-through-the-year quiz, and let's just say... history, sports, movies, award shows, and basically every major headline take a beating. Somehow everyone becomes confidently wrong while still arguing like they're experts, which is pretty much the perfect recipe for a daily comedy episode.Then it's time for Crap on Celebrities, where Jay-Z shatters Yankee Stadium records with an unbelievable three-night concert event featuring an all-star lineup that somehow keeps getting bigger. Billy Corgan pitches a dream Smashing Pumpkins Sphere residency, The Rock refuses to give up on his Broadway dreams with Kevin Hart, and Hollywood keeps rebooting everything whether we asked for it or not.The gang also dives into blockbuster movie rumors, Batman casting speculation, Hunger Games returning to theaters, Michael Jackson's record-breaking biopic, American Horror Story returning to its witchy roots, and why Love Island somehow managed to hijack everyone's television. There are passionate debates about depressing movies, surprisingly heartfelt tributes to entertainment legends, and several moments where everyone completely loses the plot.You'll also hear recommendations for an incredible revenge movie you probably haven't seen yet, reactions to new music releases, celebrity birthdays, pop culture nonsense, sports memories that may or may not be accurate, and enough sarcastic commentary to make your commute significantly more entertaining.As always, The Rizzuto Show manages to turn everyday headlines into complete insanity with quick jokes, ridiculous tangents, questionable facts, and the kind of conversations that only happen when friends who've worked together forever are allowed near microphones.Whether you're here for celebrity gossip, weird news, movie talk, sports disasters, or just want to laugh at grown adults confidently misremembering recent history, this daily comedy episode delivers exactly the kind of unpredictable fun you've come to expect.If you love hilarious conversations, pop culture commentary, entertainment gossip, celebrity news, and a funny morning show that never takes itself too seriously, you've found your people.Thanks for making The Rizzuto Show part of your day.
