In this episode, I share my story of living with ADHD and a new diagnosis of Level 1 autism, and how both shaped my drinking and recovery.

This week, President Donald Trump federalized policing in the nation's capital. He deployed the National Guard and federal agencies, including the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives (ATF). The move has been met with mild pushback from some gun-rights activists. Karl Kasarda from InRangeTV joins the podcast to explain why he thinks there should be more. The prominent GunTuber, who has criticized President Trump more than most other gun-rights activists, argued that sending troops and ATF agents into the streets of DC for general crime control should be a red flag for gun-rights advocates. He went so far as to say that Trump's aggressive use of masked law enforcement, including at one point the ATF, as well as military troops in American cities risks moving in an authoritarian direction. He pointed to the deportation of certain immigrants to an El Salvadorian prison without due process as an example of what concerns him most. He argued the deployment of federal police and troops in connection with those sorts of tactics is a threat to everyone's liberty. Kasarda agreed that the Trump Administration has made a number of pro-gun reforms, like rolling back the ATF's zero-tolerance policy toward gun dealers and effectively neutering the pistol brace ban. But he argued those reforms shouldn't outweigh the limit-pushing nature of Trump's military and police deployments, even if what the President has done thus far hasn't exceeded constitutional bounds in most instances. Special Guest: Karl Kasarda.

Casey Crespo jumps on the podcast to talk about her new book titled: Go to the Desert-Healing from Alcohol, A Spiritual Perspective. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0FHHFPR1Z?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_titleThis book is for those who feel like outcasts in both the sober world and the spiritual world.This book doesn't preach sobriety— it's about harm reduction. It's about waking up and seeing through the bullshit we've been sold since childhood that drinking is normal, glamorous, and the solution to every human emotion.Equal parts hot mess and higher self, this book brings you a mix of personal misadventures, questionable decisions, spiritual light bulb moments, and actually useful coping tools. This book dives deep into the spiritual effects of alcohol, the craving mind, and how to reconnect with your higher self without numbing out.You'll learn how alcohol hijacks your spiritual connection, dulls your emotional intelligence, and keeps you stuck on autopilot. More importantly, you'll get real-world tools to break free— from journal prompts to energetic hygiene practices, and suggestions on how to navigate a new life, and align with our true purpose and authenticity. It's a brutally honest look at what it actually feels like to build a life you no longer want to escape from.This isn't a self-help book wrapped in fake positivity. This is survival. This is rebirth. This is your call to f*cking remember who you are. Your higher self has been waiting.

Michael unpacks a startling trend: fewer Americans are drinking alcohol—and it's not just about health or cost. And people voting on today's Smerconish.com poll question first thing this morning were voting before listening to this episode...it's important, eye-opening, and isolating: Drawing from new Gallup data, cultural commentary, and The “Mingle Project,” he argues that a growing lack of social connection is to blame. Plus, reflections on the Ukraine war, the Trump-Putin summit. A must-listen on loneliness, polarization, and what we've lost in a screen-bound society.

Alcohol is something that many have used to ruin their lives, but alcohol itself is not a sin. When we choose to do something, whether drink alcohol or any other thing, we need to make sure that we are doing it for the glory of God. Rather than getting drunk with alcohol, the Bible instructs us to get drunk in the Spirit and let Him lead us and guide us in the things He wants us to do.

Episode Summary: Most people know the three classic stress responses—fight, flight, and freeze—but there's a fourth that's often missed because it hides in plain sight: the fawn response. This is when your nervous system decides the safest way to handle a threat is to please or appease it. It's not weakness—it's a deeply ingrained survival strategy that can run for years without you realizing it.In this episode, Molly explains what the fawn response is, where it comes from, why you may never have heard of it, and how it might be shaping your relationships, boundaries, and even your drinking choices. You'll learn how to spot the signs of fawning and take the first steps toward responding from authenticity rather than fear.What You'll Learn in This Episode:A quick refresher on fight, flight, and freeze—and how they compare to fawn.Pete Walker's definition of the fawn response and how it forms.Everyday examples of fawning and why it's often praised instead of questioned.Common childhood environments that lead to fawning.Why the fawn response is both common and invisible.How the fawn pattern can influence your drinking decisions.A simple, four-step process to pause and respond intentionally instead of automatically.Key Quote:“The child relinquishes the fight response, deletes ‘no' from her vocabulary… flight exacerbates the danger… freeze doesn't protect… so the child learns to fawn her way into the relative safety of becoming helpful.” – Pete WalkerLinks and Resources:Pete Walker's work on the Four F's of Trauma: pete-walker.comJoin the free Alcohol Minimalist Facebook group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/alcoholminimalistsLearn more about “Making Peace with Alcohol” coaching: www.mollywatts.com/workwithmeListener Challenge: Notice one moment this week where you have the urge to please or accommodate someone else at your own expense.

Memoir: Finding the humanity in our parents w/Liz SjaastadBest Selling Author of the Memoir, You're Too Young to UnderstandLiz Fiedorow Sjaastad has written a memoir, You're Too Young to Understand, about growing up with, and then caring for, her father – a quiet Russian immigrant, an intellectual who drank too much and her mother – a smart and proper beauty who suffered with the life-altering brain illness of schizophrenia, though she never acknowledged it.  Liz's life story has inspired more than just a book - it has fueled her advocacy. She has served on the board of Touchstone Mental Health and is currently the vice president of her local NAMI affiliate. She continues to share her voice to build awareness of schizophrenia to help end the stigma that prevents understanding, research, and support for those suffering.Links:https://www.lizsjaastad.com/bookhttps://www.instagram.com/lizsjaastad/Tags:Addiction,Alcohol,Author,forgiving our parents,Generational Trauma,Mental Health Advocacy,Motherhood,Publishing,resilience,Trauma Recovery,Memoir: Finding the humanity in our parents w/Liz Sjaastad,Podcast,Live Video Podcast,Phantom Electric Ghost PodcastSupport PEG by checking out our Sponsors:Download and use Newsly for free now from www.newsly.me or from the link in the description, and use promo code “GHOST” and receive a 1-month free premium subscription.The best tool for getting podcast guests:https://podmatch.com/signup/phantomelectricghostSubscribe to our Instagram for exclusive content:https://www.instagram.com/expansive_sound_experiments/Subscribe to our YouTube https://youtube.com/@phantomelectricghost?si=rEyT56WQvDsAoRprRSShttps://anchor.fm/s/3b31908/podcast/rssSubstackhttps://substack.com/@phantomelectricghost?utm_source=edit-profile-page

Jase poses two big questions from listeners: Is Jesus truly God, and why did He turn water into wine? The guys dive into the biblical perspective on alcohol, emphasizing self-control and grace rather than prohibition in many cases, and recommend that Jesus always be at the center of any discussion on difficult subjects. They explore the symbolism behind the water-to-wine miracle at the wedding feast, highlighting the arrival of God's kingdom and the new covenant.
