As 2025 draws to a close, the LUNASHARK team takes a moment to look back at the year's most powerful conversations from Cup of Justice. Join digital librarian Kate Thomas as she revisits twelve unforgettable clips, one from each month, featuring the voices that moved us, challenged us, and reminded us why this work matters. From detectives connecting the dots to families walking dark roads seeking answers, from Hollywood productions to legal battles weaponized against journalists... From breakthroughs in cases once dismissed as hoaxes to masterclasses in investigative journalism, from emotional pleas for justice to the surreal moment an actor's transformation into Alex Murdaugh triggered visceral reactions.... These twelve clips tell the story of a year spent chasing justice, celebrating the persistence of families seeking justice, and embracing the power of independent journalism.  These moments capture the heart of Cup of Justice's mission: exposing the truth, amplifying victims' voices, and demanding accountability from those in power.  ☕ Cups Up! ⚖️ Links to Episodes: COJ 114, COJ 117, COJ 122, COJ 125, COJ 129, COJ 135, COJ 137, COJ 141, COJ 146, COJ 150, COJ 154, COJ 157 Stay Tuned, Stay Pesky and Stay in the Sunlight...☀️ Premium Members⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ also get access to all new bonus episodes, video episodes, case files, live trial coverage and exclusive live experiences with our hosts. ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠CLICK HERE⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ to learn more and join with Promo Code "COJ25" for your first month free!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://bit.ly/3BdUtOE⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠.

Consistency is the foundation of strength training—but it's also the hardest part. In the first episode of the C.L.A.R.A. series, Andrew and Niki break down why strength training consistency matters more than motivation, outcomes, or perfect programming. If you've ever struggled to stick with lifting, lost momentum after early progress, or felt discouraged by slow results, this episode explains why that's normal—and how to stay in the process anyway. C.L.A.R.A. stands for Consistency, Longevity, Accountability, Resilience, and Adaptability. These five principles form the mental framework for lifelong strength, health, and sustainable training. This episode focuses on consistency because everything else flows from it. You'll hear why outcomes like PRs and physique changes can become distractions, how discomfort and delayed feedback sabotage consistency, and why buy-in matters more than motivation. The conversation also explores common obstacles to staying consistent with strength training, including soreness, injury, decision fatigue, limiting beliefs, and the mental load of trying to do everything "right." This episode kicks off a new series designed to help lifters think beyond the barbell and build strength that lasts for decades—not just months. Timestamps 00:00 – Why this series exists and why consistency comes first 03:00 – Introducing the C.L.A.R.A. framework 06:15 – Consistency over outcomes and PR obsession 09:45 – Buy-in, churn, and why consistency drives results 14:00 – Discomfort, delayed feedback, and limiting beliefs 21:30 – Decision fatigue, friction, and the role of coaching 30:15 – Looking ahead to longevity and the long game PS - Ready to finally see real change? Lean In 12 delivers noticeable fat loss, improved strength, and unmatched consistency through expert coaching and daily support — all in one premium 12-week program.

After the Minneapolis Meltdown The Detroit Lions walked out of Minneapolis with bruises and questions. The Minnesota Vikings exposed protection issues, timing issues, and game-management issues. It was hard to watch. On the latest episode of The Grey Area, the conversation turned fast from pain to purpose. This is the last week of the season. The Bears are next. The focus is whether anything learned in that loss will shape what happens now. Dan Campbell's words mattered. Right after the game he said the Lions “gotta make changes.” No hedging. No deflection. His Monday tone was calmer, but the message stood. Change is coming, and he has to be the agent of it. That echoes his raw line after the NFC title loss two seasons ago about “that might have been our shot.” Seasons in the NFL are fragile. Windows swing fast. What happens next decides whether that old line is a footnote or a warning. There was no comfort in the tape. Execution sagged. Play calling sputtered. The Vikings dictated terms. That adds weight to Week 18. Not for stats. For choices. Campbell's Crossroads: Play, Rest, or Recalibrate Grey wrestles with the final-week question. To play or not to play. The roster is banged up. The rhythm is off. The instinct to chase numbers gives way to a need to reset habits. The staff has to decide who benefits from snaps and who needs a seat. No simple answer, but clarity is required. Campbell already pushed past the usual coach-speak about “on to the next one.” He went straight to overhaul talk, with a game still left. That tells you where his head is. Numbers over narratives took a back seat. This week the lesson is bigger than the box score. The Lions need a cleaner plan and a cleaner identity before Chicago. That is the work. Fix the Offensive Line, Fix the Offense The priority is clear. The offensive line is job one. Find a center. Stack guard depth. Solve tackle. You can do that in one offseason. Other teams have done it with castoffs. If Brad Holmes and Campbell hit on those spots, a lot of what failed in Minnesota vanishes. Protection stabilizes the pass game. The run game breathes. Play calling opens up. Defense needs help too. All three levels. But without the line, you get what you just saw. The blueprint is attainable. The roster core can support quick repair. The front office has to execute. Temperature Check: Fans, Accountability, and the Bears Ahead Fans are angry. They should be. The team has traded on two years of success. Prices went up. Expectations followed. Then came the worst Lions performance in years, by execution and by design. That stings. The enemies list segment landed hard because accountability matters right now. Giving in to lesser angels is easy. The smarter move is to demand concrete fixes. The Detroit Lions still control their response. Beat the Bears with purpose. Then attack the line, the depth, and the defensive holes. Campbell opened the door to change. Now he has to walk through it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8WqWARwBd_E #detroitlions #lions #detroitlionspodcast #minneapolismeltdown #minnesotavikings #protectionissues #game-managementissues #dancampbell #week18 #chicagobears #playorrest #offensivelineoverhaul #findacenter Learn more about your ad choices.

Managing up is one of the most powerful career accelerators you can master—and it all starts with empathy. Not just empathy flowing downward from leaders to teams, but empathy for your leaders: understanding their pressures, challenges, and decision-making context so you can build trust, influence outcomes, and create mutual success.Given multiple generations in the workforce, we need empathy flowing up for leaders dealing with added pressures and mental health issues right now. Today's guest, Catherine Ducharme—Founder of Fluency Leadership, award-winning communicator, certified coach, and TEDx speaker—has spent over 30 years helping leaders and teams lead with heart, curiosity, and inspiration. She shares her own story of learning to manage up, the mindset shifts that change everything, and practical ways to anticipate needs, respond more effectively, and position yourself as a strategic leader.To access the episode transcript, go to www.TheEmpathyEdge.com, search by episode title.Listen in for…How to shift your own perspective, rather than trying to change others.Ways to hold your boundaries, while still meeting people where they are.The team building skills you cultivate when you engage in everyday activities with coworkers.Why is there nothing small about small talk or soft about soft skills?

And it doesn't mean you're pouring your heart out, your woes and everything to your team, but giving them insight to what you're juggling or what's on your mind will tip the balance toward compassion." — Catherine Ducharme Episode References: Fluency's Trust Breakout exercise: http://bit.ly/4lqTBunBook: Seen: The Untapped Power of Appreciation - coming in 2026 - Find out more hereTEDx Talk: The Untapped Power of AppreciationAbout Catherine Ducharme, Founder, Fluency Leadership Founder and Principal of Fluency Leadership, a leadership + team development and coaching practice, Catherine is a certified coach and facilitator with 30+ years of professional communications and leadership experience.

Stefan Molyneux looks at why it's worth talking about childhood experiences with parents, pointing out how these talks can help with self-understanding and ease a sense of scarcity. He describes a scarcity mentality as seeing resources as fixed, which holds back personal growth and broader progress, and he pushes for open conversations about how parents shaped us. Drawing on his own stories and some history, Molyneux moves to supporting an abundance mindset that encourages new ideas and working together. He also focuses on taking charge to handle difficulties and owning up in evaluating oneself. Wrapping up, he urges people to get involved in life, think about the attitudes they've picked up, and step up with responsibility and action.SUBSCRIBE TO ME ON X! https://x.com/StefanMolyneuxFollow me on Youtube! https://www.youtube.com/@freedomain1GET MY NEW BOOK 'PEACEFUL PARENTING', THE INTERACTIVE PEACEFUL PARENTING AI, AND THE FULL AUDIOBOOK!https://peacefulparenting.com/Join the PREMIUM philosophy community on the web for free!Subscribers get 12 HOURS on the "Truth About the French Revolution," multiple interactive multi-lingual philosophy AIs trained on thousands of hours of my material - as well as AIs for Real-Time Relationships, Bitcoin, Peaceful Parenting, and Call-In Shows!You also receive private livestreams, HUNDREDS of exclusive premium shows, early release podcasts, the 22 Part History of Philosophers series and much more!See you soon!https://freedomain.locals.com/support/promo/UPB2025

In this end of year onesie episode of the 2 Be Better Podcast, Chris and Peaches look back on three years of marriage work, spiritual awakening, and building “The Tribe” from a simple “let's see what happens” show into a movement that is actually changing homes. They read raw gratitude emails from listeners whose relationships, mental health, and families were transformed through better communication, masculine and feminine polarity, and choosing not to quit when life tested them. From saved marriages and healthy divorces to babies, new friendships, and a community that does wellness checks at 3 a.m, this is a long form gratitude episode for anyone serious about healing, love, and growth. You will also hear where they are going next, from psychedelic integration coaching and ayahuasca ceremony work, to plans for land, retreats, a mushroom based spiritual “church,” future birth and midwife support, and a non profit to help Tribe members in real crisis. Chris opens up about softening his anger, finding compassion, and what it really costs to become a better husband, father, and leader, while Peaches talks about peace, feminine energy, and the emotional income that comes from service. If you want honest marriage advice, relationship coaching in real time, and a community that refuses to let you stay a victim, this episode will push you to stop flirting with your dream, put your dues in, and be the person who finishes.Disclaimer: We are not professionals.

Most people don't fail because they lack discipline — they fail because they're trying to grow without changing who they are.In this episode, Chris and E break down why goals alone don't create change, how identity drives momentum, and the real reason most people stall out by February. This is a deep, practical conversation on discipline, accountability, emotionalized goals, and how to build habits that actually stick.If you've ever felt stuck despite “doing all the right things,” this episode will reframe how you think about growth — personally and professionally.Inside this episode:• Why identity matters more than motivation• How emotionalized goals create automatic discipline• The “never two days in a row” rule that builds momentum• Why most people sabotage themselves without realizing it• How to design accountability that actually works• Turning small daily actions into long-term transformation

The first time he lifted an Apache off the ground, it felt like piloting a floating bus. The first time he said “no” to what he believed was an unlawful mandate, it felt like stepping into a different kind of combat. In this candid, high-velocity conversation, a National Guard Apache pilot walks us through SEER school realities, gunnery exhilaration, and the boredom of a deployment constrained by a peace deal that tied hands while allies bled. Then the fight comes home: policy-by-whisper, moving goalposts, and a refusal to file for exemptions because conscience, oath, and regulation mattered more than convenience.To watch the intensity of this entire episode, the full episode is here: https://youtu.be/Vbp61FnTQHAWhen leaders wouldn't put groundings in writing and mental health became a pretext, he documented everything and spoke out. The video went viral not because it was loud, but because it was clear. We unpack the blowback that never came from the public, the board that's coming anyway, and the question every service member must answer: who are you accountable to when orders and integrity collide?From there we shift into faith and institutions. He separates belief in Christ and original texts from corporate religion, calling out secrecy, money incentives, and ever-shifting rules as un-Christlike. No barbs for sport—just a standard: test paths by their fruits. If it grows honesty, sacrifice, and love, keep going. If it demands secrecy and obedience without light, step away. Finally, we wade into pornography as a spiritual and cultural weapon. This isn't moralizing; it's a field manual. Accountability with a trusted friend, device discipline, and a higher aim—purity as strength—can reset attention, intimacy, and confidence. He's living proof.If you care about courage, conscience, and the kind of brotherhood that makes men harder to buy and harder to break, press play.

In the final episode of the year, CannCon and Ashe in America take a wide-ranging but focused look at the ongoing unraveling of the 2020 election narrative, with Fulton County, Georgia at the center of the discussion. The hosts break down newly allowed access to physical ballots, the staggering costs demanded to comply, and why those costs raise serious questions about obstruction and accountability. The conversation revisits documented discrepancies in hand counts, repeated ballot scanning, deleted records, and sworn testimony regarding remote access to voting systems. From Georgia to Colorado to Arizona, the episode connects patterns across states while emphasizing that election interference ultimately required Americans in positions of authority to act. As the year closes, CannCon and Ashe reflect on the long fight for election transparency, the role of grassroots investigators, and why unresolved election crimes threaten the legitimacy of every other issue facing the country. This episode serves as both a year-in-review and a warning: without verifiable elections, nothing else can truly be fixed.

But we love a good conversation.In this 2 Be Better Podcast deep dive, Chris and Peaches break down shadow work in plain English and show you how to use it without burning your life down. You will learn what the “shadow” actually is, why it is not evil, and how it shows up as overreactions, people pleasing, perfectionism, jealousy, shutdown, and that harsh inner critic that never shuts up. They walk you through the three layer model of trigger, meaning, and action urge, how your nervous system sets the ceiling for your insight, and why naming your parts, your stories, and your body sensations gives you your power back. You will also hear how shadow work ties directly into intimacy, why unspoken wounds get blamed on your partner, and how to start telling the truth about your reactions without turning it into self attack or character assassination. From there, they move into ten step by step shadow work exercises you can do alone or as a couple, including “the story I tell myself,” family echoes from your childhood home, trigger maps and care plans, resentment to request, ritual release, values to behaviors, and future memory scenes that help you manifest different outcomes instead of repeating the same fight in new outfits. You will get concrete scripts for naming your parts, asking for space without stonewalling, coming back with one clear request, using check ins, repair rehearsal, and parts dialogue so you can stop living in survival mode and start living as your real self. If you are looking for shadow work for couples, nervous system regulation, marriage communication tools, Jungian shadow work, or practical spiritual growth that you can use in real relationships, this episode gives you a full framework plus a free downloadable PDF of the exercises on the 2BeBetter.com resources tab so you can follow along and actually do the workBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/2-be-better--5828421/support.

In this December 26 edition of Badlands Daily, CannCon and Chris Paul continue their real-time analysis of ongoing political and cultural developments, focusing on narratives that have stalled, strategies that have failed to gain traction, and the broader implications moving forward. The discussion emphasizes accountability, media framing, and the importance of sustained pressure rather than performative action. Throughout the episode, the hosts reflect on long-running efforts that have produced little progress, highlight the value of supporting aligned businesses and platforms, and reinforce the role Badlands Media plays in independent coverage. This episode maintains a conversational, analytical flow rooted in observation, commentary, and audience awareness rather than breaking news, offering listeners context, perspective, and continuity as events unfold.

In this episode of The Ross Simmonds Show, Ross dives into one of the most common yet damaging habits of leaders: micromanagement. While founders and leaders often express the desire for team members who “act like owners,” their own behavior can stifle that very ownership. Ross explores the concept of the "Ownership Window," offering a strategic framework for when leaders should be hands-on and when to step back. He breaks down the fine line between leadership and control, examines the stages of team empowerment, and provides actionable insights for creating a company culture rooted in autonomy, accountability, and trust. Key Takeaways and Insights: 1. The Ownership Paradox - Leaders say they want ownership but often undermine it with controlling behaviors. - A lack of delegation leads to decision bottlenecks and ruins team morale. 2. The Downside of Micromanagement - Suck energy out of teams. - Kill trust, decision-making, and momentum. - Be mistaken for productivity from the leader's perspective. 3. The “Ownership Window” Framework - New Hire or New System (High Support Needed): Provide clarity, oversight, and a tight feedback loop. Avoid guesswork by implementing SOPs, training, and checkpoints. - New Initiative (Strategic Oversight Needed): Leaders act more as advisors than operators. Maintain checkpoints without hovering. - Proven Leader (High Trust & Autonomy): Align on outcomes, then step back. Focus on results, not the method of execution. 4. Coaching vs. Controlling - Coaching is intentional and supportive. - Controlling is reactive and born out of ego or fear. - Leadership requires adjusting engagement based on team maturity and context. 5. Redefining Ownership in Leadership - Clear expectations of what great looks like. - Accountability for outcomes, not just tasks. - Autonomy to decide how work gets done. —

Culture wars don't just trend, they shape how power moves. We dig into a week where celebrity influence and political spin collided: Nicki Minaj's embrace of a hard-right stage that actively undermines Black and LGBTQ communities, JD Vance's “stop apologizing for being white” applause line, and a devastating Hollywood family tragedy that shows how money can't mend untreated pain. The connective tissue is influence and accountability, who wields it, who gets harmed, and what it takes to repair trust.I talk through Nicki's long relationship with the fans who fueled her rise and why this sharp pivot feels like betrayal, not evolution. We revisit the pattern of courting crossover success, then denouncing it when backlash hits, and the choice to praise figures who've mocked the very people who once championed her. Accountability isn't about punishing art; it's about honoring the communities that built the stage in the first place. When leaders double down instead of showing contrition, they tell us exactly where their loyalties lie.Then we break down JD Vance's soundbite as a classic dog whistle,  confusing empathy with guilt and reframing equity as persecution. No one asked for apologies for being white; people asked for fairness, accurate history, and equal protection. That nuance gets lost because outrage is more clickable than honesty. Finally, we turn to the Nick Reiner case to confront the limits of wealth against addiction and mental illness. Allowances, access, and best intentions can still enable dysfunction without structure, evidence‑based treatment, and boundaries. The lesson is hard but necessary: resources matter, but accountability and care plans matter more.If this conversation sparks a reaction, good —add your voice.

Go from marketing chaos to marketing confidence, book a call with our team to learn how.If your roofing company's marketing didn't produce the results you expected in 2025, you're not alone — and it's probably not because you “didn't spend enough.”In this episode, Joseph Hughes breaks down the 4 real reasons roofing marketing stopped working in 2025, and more importantly, what roofing company owners must do differently to create predictable, consistent growth in 2026.From AI-driven algorithm changes and rising ad costs to shifting homeowner behavior and weak tracking, this video explains why many roofing companies were unknowingly spraying and praying with their marketing — and how to take back control.If you're a roofing business owner, operator, or marketing leader who wants clarity, accountability, and a real marketing plan (not more guesswork), this episode is for you.Key Takeaways for Roofing Company Owners✔️ Why AI broke “set it and forget it” marketing✔️ How PE-backed companies are driving up ad costs✔️ Why homeowner trust is lower than ever✔️ The 80% rule that's changing buying behavior✔️ Why generic ads and stock content no longer work✔️ What “Five Mile Famous” really means in 2025✔️ How poor tracking hides wasted ad spend✔️ How smart companies double down on what worksTimestamps00:00 Why roofing marketing failed in 202501:38 Reason #104:34 Reason #206:51 Reason #308:32 Reason #409:56 Stop spraying and praying10:45 Tracking what actually matters11:54 The 4 reasons recap12:29 Accountability beats tactics13:08 Book a marketing clarity callConnect with Contractor DynamicsWebsiteFacebookInstagramLinkedIn#roofingmarketing #roofingcompany #roofingbusiness #contractordynamics #roofingcontractors #roofingleads #roofingindustry #roofinggrowth #marketingstrategy #digitalmarketing #roofingmarketingstrategy #roofingbusinessowner #roofingads #leadgeneration #fivemilefamous #marketingforroofers

In this episode, we break down the second Hermetic Principle, Correspondence, and translate “as above, so below, as within, so without” into real life, practical language. You'll learn how your inner standards, beliefs, and nervous system show up in your habits, your communication, your boundaries, and your results, and why the same “fractal” patterns repeat across marriage, masculinity, parenting, discipline, finances, and self respect. This isn't mysticism for the sake of sounding deep, it's a clear lens for spotting the hidden structure beneath your daily choices, then making small corrections that compound.You can expect direct examples that hit home, like how “the straw that broke the camel's back” is never about the straw, it's about the load you ignored for too long, and why conflict is usually about trust, safety, respect, appreciation, power, and fear of abandonment, not the trash, tone, sex, budget, or in laws. The episode also gives you a simple framework to “upgrade the pattern” by naming the cycle without blame, identifying the belief driving it, and repeating the correction until it becomes your new default, plus a real talk segment on why change is hard, how familiar pain protects identity, and how self respect becomes the fuel for transformation.Disclaimer: We are not professionals.

In Episode 418 of Devolution Power Hour, Jon Herold and Burning Bright walk through the latest developments shaping the broader devolutionary framework, focusing on institutional authority, legal process, and the pace at which accountability unfolds. The discussion traces how public expectations often clash with the realities of jurisdiction, procedure, and timing, emphasizing why outcomes rarely arrive on a clean or predictable schedule. Jon and Burning Bright examine recent narratives, clarify misunderstandings circulating online, and reinforce the importance of structure over speculation. Throughout the episode, they return to recurring themes of patience, evidence, and constitutional mechanisms, highlighting how power is constrained, exercised, and ultimately exposed through process rather than spectacle. This episode reinforces the long-view approach to understanding what is unfolding and why disciplined analysis matters more than emotional reaction.

In this episode, the hosts engage in a lively conversation that spans various topics, from personal anecdotes and observations during a night out to deeper discussions about social media's impact on public perception, the music industry, and recent controversies in DC. They reflect on the complexities of relationships, the implications of celebrity culture, and the challenges faced by the Go-Go community. The episode culminates in a discussion about accountability, integrity, and the consequences of personal choices, all while maintaining a humorous and relatable tone.00:00 Introduction and Setting the Scene02:22 Observations from a Night Out05:03 The Impact of Social Media on Public Perception06:42 The Christmas Day Netflix Gig Controversy09:56 The Role of Cookie in the Go-Go Community14:29 Accountability in the Music Industry16:47 The DC Police Chief's Controversial Farewell26:03 Squatting and Tenant Rights in DC39:38 Jake Paul's Fight and Its Implications49:12 Young Thug's Proposal and Relationship Dynamics01:03:40 The Fallout from a Coach's Scandal01:13:37 Conclusion and Wrap-UpBecome a Patreon of the mtmj poDcast w/the wife for bonus episodes and visual content.

I recorded this for our Patreon. I have received a lot of positive feed back on this. So I am sharing it publicly. I hope you enjoy it. In this podcast, you'll learn the first Hermetic Principle, Mentalism, and how your mind shapes your lived reality through the meanings you assign, the attention you rehearse, and the actions you take. Chris breaks down how “raw data becomes a story, the story creates emotion, emotion pressures action, and action creates consequences,” then ties it directly to Adlerian psychology, mindset training, and practical personal responsibility. If you're into Hermetic Principles, manifestation with backbone, mental discipline, and self mastery that actually changes behavior, this episode gives you a clear framework to stop confusing interpretation with reality and start steering outcomes on purpose.You can expect concrete tools you can use immediately in relationships, work, and daily life, including widening the gap between stimulus and response, generating three plausible meanings before you react, and running an “attention audit” so you stop feeding resentment loops, doomscrolling, and negative self talk. Chris also shares a relationship repair line that turns accusation into curiosity, plus a simple morning and night practice to train your mental filter and build evidence based confidence. This is for anyone who wants stronger emotional regulation, cleaner communication, better relationships, and a spiritual lens that stays grounded in standards, values, and real world results.Disclaimer: We are not professionals.

And so much more! Of course all of this was beautifully derailed by the amazing questions from the audience as usual!!
