In this episode of The Free Thought Project Podcast, Jason, Don, and Matt sit down with Ben Swann — Emmy Award–winning journalist, founder of Truth in Media, and one of the most consistent independent voices in modern journalism. From his early Reality Check segments to his pioneering work today, Ben has built a reputation for exposing the narratives the establishment doesn't want questioned. We dive straight into the assassination of Charlie Kirk, dissecting not just what happened, but the motives behind it. We discuss how the killing—carried out in public, on camera, and in front of hundreds of people—was designed to be the perfect catalyst for chaos, a statement or warning from likely professionals who knew exactly what effect it would have. From there, we shift to the Zarutska stabbing in Charlotte, showing how that tragedy too is being weaponized by the same interests to stoke hatred, deepen division, and create the kind of chaos that consolidates control. We also talk about Ben's ongoing work with Truth in Media and the powerful projects they're building for the future. Despite the dark subject matter, we closed on a positive note—Ben delivered a monologue that everyone needs to hear, a reminder of why we must resist division and cling to hope.

While everyone obsesses over AI shopping assistants, the real commerce transformation is happening in other spaces. Steve Norris from Logicbroker unpacks how Gen Alpha's $67 weekly spending habits, Roblox's 380 million users, and agentic tools are forcing retailers to reshape their operational backbones. Key takeaways:Loyalty has evolved from transactional to operational - Modern consumers demand authentic brand experiences over points and discounts, rewarding companies that consistently deliver on their stated valuesThe supply chain is the overlooked frontier - While everyone focuses on AI shopping assistants, the transformative opportunity lies in agentic order routing, returns processing, and risk scoringInventory visibility remains the ultimate blocker - Real-time visibility across distribution centers, stores, and supplier networks is still the foundational challenge preventing true omnichannel success"There are people that are buying now that aren't humans... That's just a weird statement when you say that out loud." - Steve Norris"We're moving from this transactional loyalty to more of this operational loyalty... which is like a brand's ability to be able to flawlessly execute on their position and their story." - Steve Norris"I used to hand-code web pages in Notepad.exe...

No BS Spiritual Book Club Meets... The 10 Best Spiritual Books
Before he sold more than 11 million books worldwide, bestselling author **John Strelecky** was a reader seeking meaning, guidance, and inspiration.
On this episode of the Chuck Toddcast, Chuck reflects on the shocking assassination of Charlie Kirk and what it reveals about the tinderbox state of American politics. He explores how escalating rhetoric, dehumanization, and the amplification of fringe anger online have fueled a culture where violence replaces politics—and where children are left grieving the consequences. From the role of algorithms in supercharging extremism to the failure of leaders and tech companies to meet the moment, Chuck asks whether this tragedy can finally serve as the wake-up call for Americans to step back, recommit to the democratic process, and demand a safer political climate.Then, Congressman Greg Landsman joins Chuck for a wide-ranging conversation that begins with the shocking shooting of Charlie Kirk at an event on the Utah Valley University campus. (This conversation was recorded prior to the news of Charlie Kirk's death) The two dig into how political rhetoric has spiraled out of control, the role of social media algorithms in fueling polarization, and why platforms shouldn't be shielded from accountability. Landsman argues that leaders who cross the line with their rhetoric must be called out and stresses the urgent need to keep guns out of the hands of dangerous people before the U.S. slips further into a dangerous cycle of political violence.From there, the discussion shifts to governing—what Landsman learned on Cincinnati's city council, why Congress has become dysfunctional since 9/11, and the frustrating reality that most bills are more about messaging than legislating. They also tackle foreign policy, including the stakes of defending Taiwan, the risks of Trump's trade war with China, and whether an “Asian NATO” could prevent a wider conflict. Plus, Landsman reflects on Kamala Harris's book, the pressures from party leadership, and the uncertainty of his own political future as redistricting looms.Finally, he reacts to the newly released excerpts from Kamala Harris's book and answers listeners' questions in the “Ask Chuck” segment.Timeline:(Timestamps may vary based on advertisements)00:00 Chuck Todd's Introduction - Charlie Kirk assassinated01:30 We're in a tinderbox of our own making02:30 Political rhetoric has escalated out of control03:00 Young kids lost their father over a political dispute03:45 When you resort to violence, you are no longer practicing politics05:00 Dehumanizing rhetoric leads to violence07:15 We collectively need to step back in this movement09:00 The way politics has been conducted won't lead us to a better place10:15 We have underreacted to political violence in recent years11:30 Unity doesn't mean agreeing, it means agreeing to the process12:45 The super online angry fringe whips people up13:45 Hopefully this is the “enough is enough” moment15:45 Algorithms incentive and feed into the extremist rhetoric16:45 Hoping our leaders can rise up and meet the moment19:15 The tech companies have created this environment21:15 Congressman Greg Landsman joins the Chuck Toddcast 21:30 Charlie Kirk shot at event on UVU campus 24:15 We need to turn down the temperature on political rhetoric 25:30 Social media algorithms have accelerated polarization 28:00 Being super online warps your brain 29:15 Political leadership that crosses the line needs to be called out 29:45 Social media companies shouldn't be shielded from litigation 30:45 Algorithms turn social media platforms into publishers 32:15 Need to keep guns out of the hands of dangerous people 33:45 We're likely to slide into a "which side is more violent" debate 35:30 Why no committee investigation into Trump assassination attempt?37:45 The country is a tinderbox, the president needs to calm the waters 40:30 Democrats have been chasing Trump for 10 years 41:30 Democrats need to offer solutions and not just opposition to Trump 43:30 What did Greg do before entering politics? 44:30 What was the experience like on the city council? 48:15 Local government teaches you the basics of governing 52:15 After 9/11, congressional leaders ruined congress 53:30 700 bills made it out of committee, 50 made it to the floor 54:30 Most bills on the floor are messaging bills 55:45 America is only united when we have a common external enemy 56:45 We could be in World War 3 within a couple years 57:45 U.S. needs to make clear that it will defend allies 59:00 How do you sell defending Taiwan to the American people? 1:00:00 Should we have an Asian NATO? 1:01:15 We have to increase the cost to China for messing with Taiwan 1:02:30 Trump's trade war increases the likelihood of a hot war 1:04:50 Thoughts on the excerpts from Kamala Harris's book? 1:06:15 Were you pressured by the administration into not saying anything? 1:08:45 Will your seat be redistricted?1:09:15 Thoughts on interview with Greg Landsman 1:10:00 Excerpts from Kamala Harris's book released, are very direct 1:10:45 Harris was set up for failure as the "border czar" 1:11:45 Surprising that Biden staff treated Harris like Obama's treated him 1:13:45 Harris is cautious by nature 1:16:00 Harris likely to run again out of Biden's shadow 1:17:30 Dean Phillips is owed an apology, party needed an open debate 1:18:45 Ask Chuck 1:19:00 Importance of Michigan politics? 1:22:30 Could the energy Detroit sports teams provide could impact politics? 1:25:30 How should Democrats call out corruption & unfavorables on their side? 1:30:15 Should Democrats invite the national guard, then highlight crime in red states? 1:33:45 If the media hounded Trump about Kennedy, would he be more reactive? 1:36:15 College football games to keep an eye on 1:41:15 Find your way to do your part to de-escalate

From the school-to-prison pipeline to gifted testing and workplace hierarchies, society runs on invisible algorithms that decide who gets opportunity and who gets left behind. In this episode of Lipsticks on Labcoats, we explore how survival isn't always “of the fittest,” but of the most orchestrated — through systems designed to test our strength, endurance, and compliance. Drawing parallels between science, stress biology, and social structures, we ask: are you surviving someone else's algorithm, or learning how to rewrite the score?

This one's a weird one! But it's also going to elucidate a bunch of bewildering phrases that you might have noticed popping up in advertisements or in teens' conversations. Adam Aleksic runs the incredibly popular TikTok/IG/YouTube account Etymology Nerd, where he breaks down how new phrases and memes travel across the internet. Today, we're talking to him about the way these phrases also make their way into our spoken language — and how algorithms function as a new engine in language change. Like I said, it's a weird one — but it's also incredibly interesting.

Hi Everyone, Happy Tuesday! I am so excited for you to get to know today's guest. When I first saw Brandon Rogers, it was at a con and he had a line of people waiting to see him that went out the door and down the block. I said to myself, “I have got to get to know this person.” If you don't know Brandon's work, he has been making incredible, hilarious short videos for YouTube for almost 20 years (since the beginning!). Do yourself a favor and do a deep dive. His characters are outlandish, subversive and most of all, fun. He is now the star of the animated show Helluva Boss, where he plays Blitzo. This conversation was a blast and honestly really educational. Brandon and I bond over what makes us laugh (people getting hurt, sorry!). We also talk about our relationships with our fans and how AI is changing the landscape for independent creators. After the interview, I sit down with my producer Jeph and talk about the conversation in a segment we call the Hindsight. Join us there and on Patreon for more goodies!

It was one of the earliest computer algorithms used to generate classical music. This documentary film by UC Santa Cruz's Bob Giges looks at the impact of Cope's genius on the world of music.

Why do some people rise effortlessly while others go unnoticed? Toby E. Stuart, Leo Helzel Distinguished Professor of Business Administration at UC Berkeley's Haas School of Business, joins AJ and Johnny to reveal how social status—not just talent—shapes careers, opportunities, and success. Drawing from decades of research on social networks and status dynamics, Toby explains why recognition compounds like interest, why affiliation often matters more than merit, and how “anointing” can quietly decide who wins in today's winner-take-most world. From Nobel Prizes to Michelin stars to online platforms like Yelp, Stuart uncovers the paradox of prestige: success is as much about who endorses you as what you achieve. He also explores the dark side of status—scams, pressure to maintain it, and the loneliness of reaching the top. If you've ever felt overlooked despite strong results, this episode exposes the hidden rules of the status game and how to finally play it smarter. What to Listen For [00:00:00] Why affiliation and endorsements boost status more than raw merit [00:01:17] The Matthew Effect: small early wins snowball into long-term success [00:03:14] How identity shapes evaluation—Lord Rayleigh's “voodoo science” story [00:06:05] Achieved vs. ascribed status and why both determine outcomes [00:08:32] Algorithms as modern gatekeepers of status [00:13:16] Why “anointers” now include platforms like Instagram, LinkedIn, and Yelp [00:17:26] How status transfers through networks like kinetic energy [00:23:25] The rise (and risk) of gaming the status system [00:27:42] The hamster wheel of high status: pressure, scrutiny, and imposter syndrome [00:33:42] Why authentic friendships become harder at the top [00:40:29] The future of status in the age of AI and algorithms A Word From Our Sponsors Stop being over looked and unlock your X-Factor today at unlockyourxfactor.com The very qualities that make you exceptional in your field are working against you socially.

A stalkerware economy is thriving on TikTok, and it's generating hundreds of thousands in sales. Journalist Rosie Thomas from 404 Media joins the show this week discuss her investigation into GPS trackers being sold as relationship surveillance tools directly through TikTok Shop. This isn't some dark web operation - it's happening on one of the world's most popular social platforms.The findings are disturbing. Content targets people with taglines like "Is she really going out with friends?" are generating hundreds of thousands in sales. Algorithms don't just show you this content - they amplify it the moment you engage.The digital economy we all live in has normalized surveillance to the point where stalking your partner is being marketed as a reasonable relationship tool. The technology isn't new, but the accessibility and algorithmic amplification absolutely is.This conversation touches on everything from the failure of tech companies to consider abuse cases in product design, to how parasocial relationships are replacing actual community bonds, to the legal gaps that leave victims with limited recourse.If you work in tech, this episode should make you uncomfortable. As a citizen, it should terrify you. It's a reminder that our biggest threats often come from the normalization of our culture's worst tendencies.Read more on 404Media: https://www.404media.co/tiktok-shop-sells-viral-gps-trackers-marketed-to-stalkers/
One click and the social media algorithm starts to study you. It begins suggesting things it thinks you'd like. It starts pushing you in new directions. It's trying to serve you, but also trap you. In this episode of the All Pro Dad Podcast, host Ted Lowe is joined by BJ Foster and Bobby Lewis to talk about that pesky social media algorithm and how to make it work FOR you, not against you as a dad. Why This MattersAlgorithms try to keep your attention and steal your time away from what matters most. Define ItThe social media algorithm is the behind-the-scenes brain that sorts through all the noise and tries to deliver a personalized feed of content it thinks you'll like.Things Social Media Algorithms DoExplore your potential interests: They analyze popular trends and feeds them to you in an attempt to broaden your horizons.Move you beyond your immediate network: By suggesting posts from accounts you don't follow, platforms help content “go viral."Steer you toward high-engagement content: If a post is getting a lot of likes, shares, and comments in a short amount of time, the visibility gets boosted to a wider audience.How To Train Your Algorithm1. Engage authentically.Only like, share, and comment on content you genuinely care about.2. Follow intentionally.Be mindful of who you follow, because algorithms assume you like similar things. 3. Explore mindfully.Using ‘Explore' or ‘For You' search aids collects data about your interests. 4. Watch the clock.The longer you spend viewing content, the more social media algorithms assume you're interested. Don't linger.5. Use platform features.Block, mute, or hit ‘not interested' to refine your online experience.Important Episode Timestamps00:00 – 00:21 | Kicking Off the Conversation00:21 – 02:20 | Instagram and Pornography02:20 – 05:23 | What Are Algorithms Really Doing?05:23 – 07:45 | Algorithms Get Smarter Every Year07:45 – 09:35 | Screen Time by Generation09:35 – 11:13 | Problems with Social Media Algorithms11:13 – 14:40 | Personal Reflections on Algorithm Impact14:40 – 19:13 | Training the Algorithm to Work for You19:13 – 23:59 | Boundaries, Self-Discipline, and Accountability24:00 – End | Pro MWe love feedback, but can't reply without your email address.

Family — Amos 8:11 warns of days when there will be a famine not of food or water but of hearing the words of the Lord. Today the world is full of voices: YouTube, Instagram, TikTok — many claim to speak for God, but the true word is scarce. Be discerning: guard your ears online, recognize the Shepherd's voice (John 10:27), and don't let algorithms feed your soul with noise instead of nourishment.

In this episode of Talking Sleep, host Dr. Seema Khosla welcomes Dr. Imran Iftikhar and Dr. Rami Khayat to discuss groundbreaking research on adaptive servo-ventilation (ASV) and the newly released AASM clinical practice guidelines for central sleep apnea treatment. Dr. Iftikhar presents his innovative approach to analyzing ASV data through meta-analysis combined with trial sequential analysis, offering fresh insights into the statistical reliability of existing research beyond traditional systematic reviews. His work addresses lingering questions about ASV efficacy and safety that have persisted since the controversial SERVE-HF trial results challenged previous assumptions about this therapy. Meanwhile, Dr. Khayat, who served as vice-chair of the AASM task force, walks through the comprehensive evidence-based recommendations covering the full spectrum of central sleep apnea treatments. The guidelines address critical clinical decisions: When should CPAP be used over no treatment? Who requires BPAP with backup rates? Why does the task force recommend against BPAP without backup rates for central sleep apnea? What role do oxygen, acetazolamide, and transphrenic nerve stimulation play in treatment algorithms? The conversation delves into practical considerations including differences between ASV device algorithms from various manufacturers, the clinical impact of current device availability issues, and findings from Dr. Parthasarathy's bench study. The experts tackle the complex question of ASV use in patients with reduced ejection fraction and clarify important distinctions between primary central sleep apnea and treatment-emergent central sleep apnea (TECSA). This episode addresses the evolving landscape of central sleep apnea management, helping clinicians navigate evidence-based treatment decisions in an era of changing technology and updated safety considerations. Whether you're treating patients with heart failure, complex sleep-disordered breathing, or emerging central events during PAP therapy, this episode provides essential guidance for optimizing care. Join us for this comprehensive update that translates complex research findings into practical clinical applications.
