Is the market due for a reckoning? This week on Stay Tuned, former Goldman Sachs Chairman and CEO Lloyd Blankfein joins Preet for a far-reaching conversation on the economic impacts of the war in Iran, lessons from the 2008 financial crisis, the current state of the markets (and why he thinks we're due for another reckoning), and why he thinks CEOs should stay out of most political debates. Plus, they dive into Blankfein's new memoir, Streetwise, in which he traces his unlikely journey to the top job at one of the most powerful financial institutions in the world. Then, Preet answers your questions about CBS pulling Senate candidate James Talarico from The Late Show with Stephen Colbert and the latest on Bruce Springsteen's tour.  In the bonus for Insiders, Lloyd and Preet discuss how AI is transforming the workforce and why resisting technological progress is folly.

In this episode, I break down the most critical shifts happening in modern marketing and share the core strategy I believe will define success for the next decade. I explain why traditional measurements like GRP are outdated and why an obsession with "measuring brand" is an excuse for bad work. You'll hear about the "campaign mindset" that is failing Fortune 500 companies and why the future of marketing is all about the "barbell strategy"—going all-in on extreme digital creative (AI/social) and extreme analog experiences.You'll learn about:Why "Views Achieved" is the Most Merit-Based Marketing MetricThe Two Massive Flaws Killing Fortune 500 Marketing: Campaign Mindset and Fake ReportsThe Barbell Strategy: Going Extreme Digital and Extreme AnalogWhy Real-Life Experiential Content Will be Put on a PedestalThe D.I.E. (Delusional, Insecure, Entitled) Mindset of Creative Leaders

In this keynote address to the NextGen community, I talk about the coming tidal wave of AI influencers and what you must do to survive and thrive. I encourage you to diversify your content across multiple platforms, especially YouTube Shorts, as a "defense mechanism from disappearing." I also discuss why selfish content always leads to plateaus and how detaching from the need for admiration is the key to courage and consistency. You'll learn about:The Inevitable Rise of AI InfluencersWhy Attention is Always ChangingThe Power of Selflessness and Bringing Value to Your AudienceThe Necessity of Platform Diversification (YouTube Shorts, LinkedIn, Substack)Why Building Community Depth Matters More Than EverThe Massive Opportunity in Live ShoppingHow to Detach from Admiration and Deal with Judgment

This week, Scott sat down with his Lawfare colleagues Kate Klonick, Molly Roberts, and Troy Edwards to talk through the week's big national security news stories, including:“MisAnthropic.” On Monday, Anthropic filed a civil complaint in the Northern District of California and a petition for hearing at the Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit over the Department of Defense's designation of the frontier artificial intelligence company as a “supply chain risk.” The litigation capped off weeks of building tensions between Anthropic and Pentagon officials over the firm's two ethical red lines for the Defense Department and its use of its AI model, Claude, specifically around widespread surveillance of Americans and the use of AI and autonomous weapons. What exactly are the Pentagon's grounds for designating Anthropic as a supply chain risk, and how does Anthropic argue that doing so is inconsistent with the law? And what might the implications be for the AI industry as a whole?“The Mashhadian Candidate.” Fears that Iran would respond to the ongoing Israeli-U.S. military campaign through overseas terrorism have come to a head this week, as reports emerged that U.S. intelligence had detected an encrypted message being transmitted from Iran that may serve as “an operational trigger” for assets sitting outside of the country. What do we know about Iran's involvement in past clandestine operations, including terrorism? And what does it mean that this is all happening at a moment when the Justice Department and FBI have lost so many of their experienced national security personnel?“Maricopa-calypse Now.” Federal investigators have ramped up several inquiries that appear to be aimed at longstanding—and, thus far, unsubstantiated—allegations of fraud in the 2020 election that are particularly popular with President Trump and his closest supporters. Last month, FBI agents executed a search warrant on Fulton County's election office and confiscated ballots and voting equipment used in 2020. Last week, the FBI reportedly subpoenaed records from a conservative Arizona legislator over the state senate's audit of the 2020 election results in Maricopa County. And days later, the Department of Homeland Security's Homeland Security Investigations office (or HSI) requested records from Arizona state officials regarding their own investigations into alleged 2020 malfeasance. What should we make of these developments? And at what point should we be concerned about the federal government's engagement in these sorts of matters in advance of the upcoming 2026 midterms?This week's object lessons are all-consuming. Kate is celebrating online legal analysis by drinking from her Balkinization mug. Troy is lamenting yet another slate of firings at the FBI by drinking from his EX FED mug. Scott, finding himself with unexpected free time at Union Station, devoured Barbara Tuchman's “A Distant Mirror: The Calamitous 14th Century.” And Molly introduces us to the texturally triggering cherimoya.

The military use of AI is capturing headlines this month. After a dustup with the Pentagon, the AI company Anthropic is out, and OpenAI is in. Meanwhile, in the US war with Iran, AI is being deployed in ways we've never seen. To make sense of it all, Host Flora Lichtman talks with journalist Karen Hao, who covers AI and is the author of the book Empire of AI: Dreams and Nightmares in Sam Altman's OpenAI. Guest: Karen Hao is a tech journalist and author of the book Empire of AI: Dreams and Nightmares in Sam Altman's OpenAI.

In this episode, Julie Piatt shares the hard-earned wisdom behind decades of love, transformation, and personal awakening. From surviving an abusive relationship in her twenties to building a 25-year partnership with Rich Roll, Julie reveals the “Jedi move” that changed everything for her.  Ahead, Julie opens up about the karmic relationships that shaped her path, the lessons she learned about projection, responsibility, and spiritual sovereignty, and why many women lose themselves trying to fix or rescue their partners.  We also dive into Julie's current spiritual work, including her new teachings around creativity, sexuality, and spiritual embodiment. From mystical experiences to navigating AI, Julie offers a powerful reminder: true freedom comes from knowing yourself as a sovereign being. We also talk about: Why many women unintentionally lose themselves in relationships The difference between human love (transactional) + divine love (unconditional) How Julie's decision to release Rich to his own life transformed their marriage Why trying to “fix” your partner often keeps them stuck The power of taking radical responsibility for your life + relationships Navigating marriage with independence, freedom, and strong boundaries Julie's spiritual initiations + mystical experiences over the past year How creativity, sexuality, and spirituality are deeply interconnected Why maintaining energetic sovereignty is essential in a rapidly evolving world Resources: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/srimati/ Website: https://julie-piatt.mykajabi.com/ Order our book, Almost 30: A Definitive Guide To A Life You Love For The Next Decade and Beyond, here: https://bit.ly/Almost30Book.  Sponsors: Hero Bread | Hero Bread is offering 10% off your order.

The conservative movement is facing a defining question: What comes after Donald Trump? In this episode, I sit down with State Freedom Caucus Network President Andy Roth to discuss the future of the American Right, the failures of the Republican establishment, and why state-level Freedom Caucus conservatives may be the only path forward. In a very deep discussion, we delve into why the Freedom Caucus is the only long-term strategy beyond Trump, how state Freedom Caucuses are reshaping conservative politics but still face enormous headwinds, and how primaries need to be reformed. Separately, I do a deep dive into how a disastrous new housing bill (HR 6644) will fundamentally alter the housing market, strip local zoning rights, and force unwanted AI data centers and Section 8 housing into deep-red counties. Federal grants will be used to bribe local RINO governments into destroying their own communities. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Jimmy and former weapons inspector and geopolitical analyst Scott Ritter break down the stunning geopolitical shift underway that finds a desperate Donald Trump, facing strategic defeat in Iran, lifting all sanctions on Russian oil and begging Russian president Vladimir Putin for help—with Kremlin economic envoy Kirill Dmitriev now meeting U.S. negotiator Steve Witkoff in Miami to broker the bargain.  Ritter tells Jimmy that Russia holds all the cards: with the Strait of Hormuz closed, global energy markets are collapsing, and only Russia can supply oil to Asia and Europe, solving its economic problems overnight while the U.S. runs out of missiles and faces economic catastrophe.  The potential deal would see America withdraw from the Middle East, lift sanctions on Iran, and constrain Israel—allowing Trump to claim "peacemaker" cover for a humiliating retreat. Ritter concludes this is 100% happening because the U.S. has no other option, and the only question is whether Israel can be stopped from destroying regional energy infrastructure entirely. Plus segments on Iran's ingenious low-tech approach to avoiding Israeli rocket interceptors, the serious privacy concerns surrounding Meta's new AI glasses and Israel's false flag attack to lure Turkey and the EU into the war on Iran. Also featuring Rick Overton, Kurt Metzger and Stef Zamorano!

Ford faces a prolonged 11-month combat deployment. (2)3. SEG 3: Alan Tonelson and Gordon Chang discuss China's failure to stop fentanyl precursor exports. They evaluate tariffs as non-military tools to pressure nations while addressing war-related shortages in fertilizer and electronics components. (3)4. SEG 4: Bill Roggio details the tragic US missile strike on an Iranian girl's school. He argues that while air strikes destroy military assets, air power alone cannot achieve regime change or ensure final victory. (4)5. SEG 5: Jack Burnham analyzes China's "lukewarm" support for Iran and its focus on energy security. Beijing is learning lessons from Western precision strikes while continuing internal repression of ethnic minorities through forced labor. (5)6. SEG 6: Jack Burnham reports on the DOJ dropping charges against Chinese scientists accused of smuggling biological samples. This reversal, involving the Chinese consulate, may be linked to upcoming trade negotiations or prosecutorial challenges. (6)7. SEG 7: Kevin Fraser warns that state legislatures are rushing to regulate AI with potentially unconstitutional laws. He advocates for market-driven transparency and allowing consumers to choose models based on their specific needs and preferences. (7)8. SEG 8: Kevin Fraser explores distinctions between AI models like Grok and Claude. He highlights regulatory "sandboxes" in states like Utah and Montana that foster innovation while monitoring for potential technological harms and ensuring transparency. (8)9. SEG 9: Michael Bernstam explains how the American shale revolution mitigates global energy shocks. He warns central banks against fueling inflation and emphasizes that while global supply chains are vulnerable, US production provides a critical buffer. (9)10. SEG 10: Michael Bernstam discusses how rising oil prices bolster Russia's budget. However, the Russian economy faces contraction and "military Keynesianism," while the United States remains a resilient net energy exporter despite global supply chain disruptions. (10)11. SEG 11: Ivana Stradner examines the Kremlin's information warfare campaign to keep Viktor Orbán in power. Orbán, formerly an anti-Soviet activist, now aligns with Putin to ensure political survival and counter Western democratic decision-making processes. (11)12.

She argues that information is a potent, invisible weapon used to polarize and weaken the West. (12)13. SEG 13: Simon Constable reports on skyrocketing European energy prices due to Middle East conflict. Shortages in sulfur and bromine threaten global semiconductor manufacturing and food security as fertilizer costs nearly double for struggling farmers. (13)14. SEG 14: Simon Constable critiques Prime Minister Keir Starmer's hesitant leadership. He notes the Royal Navy has been "hollowed out" over three decades, leaving Britain with fewer warships than France and a tiny, underfunded standing army. (14)15. SEG 15: Bob Zimmerman discusses the Senate's shift toward private space exploration, potentially ending the SLS program. NASA is increasingly contracting commercial entities for lunar habitats, reusable rockets, and specialized satellite launch capabilities to reduce costs. (15)16. SEG 16: Bob Zimmerman reviews the DART mission's success in altering an asteroid's orbit. He also reports that the European Space Agency lost contact with a solar probe after its batteries drained due to misaligned solar panels. (16)

Stefan Molyneux speaks with a caller whose depression stems from a painful childhood and a circle of shallow, unsatisfying friendships. He urges the man to take a hard look at these relationships and recognize how many of them drain rather than nourish him. Molyneux suggests that cutting contact—ghosting, in plain terms—can sometimes be the necessary step to protect one's peace and start building self-respect. Only by clearing out the superficial ties, he argues, does space open up for deeper, more honest connections that actually matter.GET FREEDOMAIN MERCH! https://shop.freedomain.com/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

One of the most polarizing questions in the mind of any photographer is "Should—or shouldn't I—get an agent?"  The role of an agent in a photographer's career is often misunderstood, leading hungry creatives to think that securing representation is their number one key to success. In truth, the relationship between a photographer and agent is far more nuanced than simply booking more assignments. In today's podcast, we take a deep dive into this complex alliance in a discussion with two generations of top agents, whose combined careers span from the film-era to the latest in media buys.  Listen in for a behind-the-scenes look at the many details involved, from the four P's Jennifer (JP) Perlmutter looks for in a photographer's work to Michael Ash's skill in editing a portfolio to allow a photographer's individual vision and passion to shine. Our experts also shed light on critical topics such as branding, while making distinctions between a physical and emotional brand. Get fresh insights about standing out in an oversaturated marketplace and the matter of seeing ahead of the curve on trends. As JP notes, "You don't have to hop on the current trend. You don't need to create the new trend. You need to create what's true to you, what's true to your vision, and then know that there are enough people out there—that there is your niche. There are the people who are going to love what you're doing." Guests: Jennifer Perlmutter & Michael Ash Episode Timeline: 3:16: Is there a difference between the terms agent and rep? 4:11: Michael Ash on his start as an agent in late 1970's New York. 7:46: Jennifer Perlmutter talks about her beginnings at the dawn of social media. 12:25: Having a good eye for talent, plus the qualifications and skillsets needed to be a rep.  16:54: Producing as part of an agent's role, plus a peek inside relationships between photographers and a rep. 20:16: Navigating connections between clients, photographers, and reps—plus contracts. 27:34: An agent's role in protecting a photographer's interests, plus their skill in editing and curating the work. 35:46: JP describes the Four P's—what she looks for in a photographer's work. 43:14: Episode Break 44:36: To brand or not to brand, plus distinctions between physical and emotional branding.  47:28: How do you stand out in an oversaturated marketplace and hone a unique vision? 53:29: The current trend for nostalgia and harkening back to the analog world.  57:56: Michael and JP discuss today's advertising marketplace and usage rates.  1:01:08: The matter of taste vs analytics in today's commercial marketplace. 1:04:21: How do you see ahead of the curve or know which trends are worth jumping on? Where do we go from here? 1:11:14: Apostrophe's mentorship program, advice for young creatives, and some thoughts on AI. Guest Bios: Michael Ash is a photographers' agent and creative consultant who began representing photographers in 1979, after failing to get drafted into Major League Baseball. Born in Brownsville, Brooklyn, and raised on the streets of New York, Michael founded and led a successful agency in New York City from 1979 to 2016, focused on guiding the careers of more than 40 photographers from around the globe. He introduced this international talent to the world of commercial photography through representation, creative direction, and mentorship. Michael is an expert in contract negotiation, editorial curation, and client development. Most importantly, he has a lifelong dedication to nurturing artistic vision and unique creativity.

This week, Scott sat down with his Lawfare colleagues Kate Klonick, Molly Roberts, and Troy Edwards to talk through the week's big national security news stories, including:“MisAnthropic.” On Monday, Anthropic filed a civil complaint in the Northern District of California and a petition for hearing at the Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit over the Department of Defense's designation of the frontier artificial intelligence company as a “supply chain risk.” The litigation capped off weeks of building tensions between Anthropic and Pentagon officials over the firm's two ethical red lines for the Defense Department and its use of its AI model, Claude, specifically around widespread surveillance of Americans and the use of AI and autonomous weapons. What exactly are the Pentagon's grounds for designating Anthropic as a supply chain risk, and how does Anthropic argue that doing so is inconsistent with the law? And what might the implications be for the AI industry as a whole?“The Mashhadian Candidate.” Fears that Iran would respond to the ongoing Israeli-U.S. military campaign through overseas terrorism have come to a head this week, as reports emerged that U.S. intelligence had detected an encrypted message being transmitted from Iran that may serve as “an operational trigger” for assets sitting outside of the country. What do we know about Iran's involvement in past clandestine operations, including terrorism? And what does it mean that this is all happening at a moment when the Justice Department and FBI have lost so many of their experienced national security personnel?“Maricopa-calypse Now.” Federal investigators have ramped up several inquiries that appear to be aimed at longstanding—and, thus far, unsubstantiated—allegations of fraud in the 2020 election that are particularly popular with President Trump and his closest supporters. Last month, FBI agents executed a search warrant on Fulton County's election office and confiscated ballots and voting equipment used in 2020. Last week, the FBI reportedly subpoenaed records from a conservative Arizona legislator over the state senate's audit of the 2020 election results in Maricopa County. And days later, the Department of Homeland Security's Homeland Security Investigations office (or HSI) requested records from Arizona state officials regarding their own investigations into alleged 2020 malfeasance. What should we make of these developments? And at what point should we be concerned about the federal government's engagement in these sorts of matters in advance of the upcoming 2026 midterms?This week's object lessons are all-consuming. Kate is celebrating online legal analysis by drinking from her Balkinization mug. Troy is lamenting yet another slate of firings at the FBI by drinking from his EX FED mug. Scott, finding himself with unexpected free time at Union Station, devoured Barbara Tuchman's “A Distant Mirror: The Calamitous 14th Century.” And Molly introduces us to the texturally triggering cherimoya.

My guest today is Mike Masnick, the founder and CEO of Techdirt, the excellent and long-running tech policy blog. Mike has been writing about government overreach, privacy in the digital age, and other related topics for decades now, and he's an expert on how the internet and the surveillance state have grown in interconnected ways over the past two decades. I wanted to have Mike on the show to discuss the messy, fast-moving situation at Anthropic, the maker of Claude that now finds itself in a very ugly legal battle with the Pentagon. Instead of covering the daily drama, I wanted to dig in specifically on Anthropic's surveillance red line, and the important history and context around digital privacy in the U.S. that shapes how we should think about this going forward.  Links: AI bros wanted Trump — now they learn what happens when you tell him no | Techdirt OpenAI's ‘red lines' are written in the NSA's dictionary | Techdirt Anthropic is suing the Department of Defense | The Verge Anthropic launches new think tank amid Pentagon fight | The Verge How OpenAI caved to the Pentagon on AI surveillance | The Verge Inside the backlash to the AI war machine | Platformer The Pentagon is violating Anthropic's First Amendment rights | FIRE Why the Pentagon wants to destroy Anthropic | Ezra Klein / NYT Subscribe to The Verge to access the ad-free version of Decoder!

Tommy and Ben unpack the latest twists in Donald Trump's chaotic regime-change war with Iran, which eleven days in is still plagued by shifting goals, contradictory messaging, and rising regional consequences. They break down the White House's confusing claims of victory despite unresolved threats—from the hundreds of pounds of highly enriched uranium still loose inside Iran to signs that Tehran may be mining the Strait of Hormuz. The guys discuss the war's mounting casualties, environmental devastation from Israeli strikes on Iranian fuel depots, and the dangerous escalation of attacks on desalination plants across the Gulf. They also dig into what we know about Iran's new supreme leader, Mojtaba Khamenei, explain why sending troops into Iran to secure its nuclear materials—or seize the oil hub of Kharg Island—would be a massive and risky military mission, and why Democrats in Congress must refuse to authorize more funding for the war. Plus: Israel's widening war in Lebanon, the U.S. military's new role in Ecuador's fight against drug cartels, and the election of a GenZ rapper-turned-politician in Nepal. Then Tommy speaks to Michael C. Horowitz, Senior Fellow for Tech & Innovation at the Council on Foreign Relations, about the Pentagon's fight with Anthropic and how AI is being used by the military.For Friends of the Pod the guys answer questions about whether assassination-as-foreign-policy is making a comeback, which US military interventions were actually successful in the post-WWII era, and, like…dude, what the fuck.Preorder Ben's book All We Say: The Battle for American Identity: A History in 15 Speeches and subscribe to his Substack here.

In the last few days, President Donald Trump has said that the U.S-Israel war on Iran will end soon, after oil prices jumped and the growing regional conflict continued to shake markets. After a wave of heavy bombardments throughout Iran, Secretary of War Pete Hegseth promised another round, “The most fighters, the most bombers, the most strikes.” “Hegseth has, yes, said that it's going to be basically death and destruction from the air, and they're delivering that,” Hooman Majd, an Iranian American writer and journalist, tells The Intercept Briefing. “Killing civilians is a hallmark of American air war. This particular campaign Operation Epic Fury is set apart by the relentlessness of the attacks,” adds Nick Turse, senior reporter for The Intercept. “The two militaries — U.S. and Israel — combined were striking a conservative estimate of 1,000 targets per day in the first days of the conflict. Around 4,000 targets were hit in the first 100 hours of the campaign. For another point of comparison, Israeli attacks in the recent Gaza war were also relentless, but this far outpaces the Israeli campaign by more than double the number of strikes.” On Wednesday, Trump told Axios the war would end soon because there's “practically nothing left to target."This week on the The Intercept Briefing, host Akela Lacy talked to Majd and Turse about the latest developments in the U.S. and Israel war on Iran and the growing number of conflicts the U.S. is engaged in. Senior technology reporter Sam Biddle also joined to discuss how artificial intelligence is being used in various U.S. conflicts.“Airstrikes, air war generally is already so prone to killing innocent people even when you take your time. But whenever you try to hurry for the sake of hurrying — and AI is great at enabling that — you just increase over and over again the chance of killing someone that you didn't intend to or didn't care enough to avoid killing,” says Biddle. “So I think that is an immense risk of just accelerating the metabolism of killing from the air by drone, by airplane — with the stamp of ‘intelligence' that these AI companies are really pushing.”Listen to the full conversation of The Intercept Briefing on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube, or wherever you listen.

The BBC hears from Iranian residents about life under bombardment, as the US says its military campaign is a "resounding success" - and ahead of schedule. Tehran accuses its enemies of targeting civilians. We also hear from one of the world's biggest shipping companies about how it's unwilling to risk its employees and vessels by sailing through the Strait of Hormuz.

What if cancer isn't just a disease… but a split personality inside your own body? In this episode of Mayim Bialik's Breakdown, Dr. Michael Levin (Professor of Biology at Tufts University, Director of the Allen Discovery Center) drops paradigm-shattering insights that could redefine medicine, consciousness, intelligence...and what it even means to be human. He explains why he calls cancer “dissociative identity disorder of the body” — a breakdown in the body's bioelectrical network — and how this could open the door to treating cancer without drugs or chemotherapy, why “mind blindness” prevents us from recognizing nonhuman intelligence, and how “human” might be defined in a future of tech implants and biological augmentation. Dr. Levin also breaks down: - What does a body think about before there is a brain? - Can we regrow limbs in our lifetime? - Are we closer than we think to communicating with our organs via an app? - What flatworms reveal about how trauma and memory are imprinted in tissue, and whether we might one day overwrite trauma itself - What nonhuman intelligence could actually look like - How you might play tic-tac-toe with an alien - Real dangers of anthropomorphizing AI Dr. Levin also tackles some of humanity's biggest existential questions: - Are we defining consciousness all wrong? - How can ancient traditions and modern biophysics coexist? - Why compassion may be the most advanced technology we have From developmental biophysics to computer science to cognitive science, this conversation explores how intelligence may be woven into life itself — from cells to organs to entire bodies. If what he's saying is right… Medicine will change. AI debates will change. And our understanding of ourselves will change. You will never look at your body the same way again!

It's 311 Day, which means the show kicks off with some love for the band 311 and the strange realization that half the crew's spouses might secretly have a crush on Nick Hexum. Totally normal. From there, things escalate quickly — because nothing says morning radio like overthinking how you walk past a cop in a parking garage at 3:30AM while trying to look “not suspicious.” Spoiler: the more you try to look innocent, the guiltier you probably look.Then the crew dives into one of the wildest tech-meets-legal stories we've heard in a while. An Illinois woman decided she didn't need a real attorney anymore and replaced them with ChatGPT. What could go wrong? Turns out… a lot. The AI helped her flood the courts with legal filings that basically didn't exist in real law, costing a company hundreds of thousands of dollars just to respond. It sparks a bigger discussion about how far people are pushing AI into real-life decisions — including using it for medical advice instead of calling an actual doctor.Speaking of health, the gang discovers just how many health tracking apps people have on their phones now. Lauren proudly reveals she has thirteen, which feels less like “wellness” and more like running a personal medical command center from your pocket. Meanwhile, some of us are still operating on the “if my arm goes numb I'll deal with it then” method.The show also tackles a genius business move by a group of Girl Scouts who set up a cookie booth outside a marijuana dispensary. The sales were legendary… but the Girl Scouts organization wasn't exactly thrilled. Apparently entrepreneurship has limits when it involves Thin Mints and customers leaving with the munchies.And finally, the crew looks at a new study ranking the happiest cities in America. Let's just say the results were… not great for St. Louis. Like, really not great. The conversation spirals into why some towns exist in the first place, how railroad cities were built, and the strange history behind places that make you wonder: “Who looked at this swamp and said… yeah, this is where we live now.”Basically, it's another chaotic morning hanging out with the crew — weird stories, questionable life advice, and plenty of laughs along the way. If you like sarcasm, strange news, and conversations that somehow start with a band holiday and end with frontier settlement theories, this comedy podcast has you covered.Thanks for listening to the show every day — whether you catch it on the radio, online, or right here on the comedy podcast feed.Follow The Rizzuto Show → https://linktr.ee/rizzshow for more from your favorite daily comedy show.Connect with The Rizzuto Show Comedy Podcast online → https://1057thepoint.com/RizzShow.Hear The Rizz Show daily on the radio at 105.7 The Point | Hubbard Radio in St. Louis, MO.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

A man robs a grave, murders a hermit, and then decides to take up bombing. A ghost has been standing in the same flooded tunnel for over 160 years. Workers may still be sealed inside one of America's most famous landmarks. A gunman holding dozens of hostages picks up the phone and calls a radio station. A soldier walks off base in the middle of the night — and keeps walking. And a real boy named Ken becomes the most famous plastic man in history. | IT HAPPENED ON *DATE* | The Morning Weird Darkness*No AI Voices Are Used In The Narration Of This Podcast*WeirdDarkness® is a registered trademark.

In this episode, Dr. Tommy Wood returns to Barbell Shrugged for part two of a deep conversation on brain health, cognitive decline, and the daily habits that shape long-term mental performance. Joined by Doug Larson, Travis Mash, and Dr. Mike Lane, Tommy unpacks why oral health matters far more than most people realize, explaining how gum disease, oral bacteria, and chronic inflammation may contribute not only to cardiovascular disease but also to dementia risk. The crew also digs into the importance of sensory input, from hearing and vision to social interaction, and how losing those inputs over time can quietly accelerate cognitive decline. The conversation then shifts into sleep, where Tommy breaks down what actually matters most for protecting the brain. Rather than obsessing over perfect sleep scores or chasing an arbitrary eight-hour target, he argues that the biggest levers are sleep opportunity, regularity, and avoiding behaviors that wreck sleep architecture. The group explores the different roles of REM and deep sleep, how sleep supports emotional processing, learning, and metabolic cleanup in the brain, and why wearables can be useful for trends without being trusted too literally. They also cover naps, alcohol, caffeine, common sleep aids, magnesium, chamomile, and why worrying too much about sleep can itself become part of the problem. Finally, the episode broadens into brain risk and brain resilience in the modern world. Tommy highlights major risk factors for cognitive decline including hearing loss, high blood pressure, diabetes, smoking, obesity, alcohol, air pollution, and toxic exposures like lead and other environmental contaminants. He also gives a nuanced take on technology, arguing that video games, digital tools, and even AI can be either brain-supportive or brain-eroding depending on how they are used. When technology expands your capabilities, it can sharpen cognition. When it replaces thinking entirely, it can weaken the very skills you are trying to preserve. This episode is a practical roadmap for anyone who wants to think more clearly, age better, and protect their brain with smarter everyday decisions.

Stefan Molyneux talks with a caller still reeling from a divorce that political disagreements helped tear apart, leaving him estranged from his son and carrying a heavy, persistent emotional weight—loneliness, regret, a sense that life has narrowed. The man also describes the practical grind of job hunting made harder by age, employment gaps, and the current climate. Molyneux listens, then points out that such breaks, however brutal, can expose long-hidden truths about relationships and force real self-examination. He urges the caller not to let bitterness settle in permanently, but instead to focus on steady, honest effort—building skills, maintaining character, proving competence in small ways—because those actions compound over time and can eventually shift what now feels immovable. Above all, he holds that hope is not naive optimism here, but a reasoned position: people recover from far deeper losses, and the caller can rebuild too if he keeps his attention on what he can still control.GET FREEDOMAIN MERCH! https://shop.freedomain.com/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

The news is relentless in pace as well as issues, isn't it? This week we're trying something a bit different: Adam sits with previous guests Jason Koebler, tech journalist from 404 Media, and comedian Dylan McKeever to wade through the muck of this week's biggest stories. The trio talks about the government's stiffy for AI-powered war machines, the whoever-wins-we-lose Warner Bros. Discovery merger, and a glimmer of hope for trans rights.
