In this must-listen episode of Parenting Teens with Dr. Cam, adolescent psychologist and parenting coach Dr. Cam Caswell sits down with writer and professor Nancy Reddy, author of The Good Mother Myth, to unpack the crushing weight of unrealistic parenting expectations. Together, they explore how outdated beliefs about “good” parenting are fueling unnecessary guilt and stress—especially for moms of teens. You'll learn the difference between helpful guilt and harmful shame, how to let go of perfectionism, and how to reframe your role as your teen grows more independent. Nancy also shares the liberating truth about asking for help and why showing vulnerability is one of the best lessons you can teach your teen. This episode is both a sigh of relief and a wake-up call. If you're tired of feeling like you're not doing enough, listen in. WHAT YOU'LL LEARN IN THIS EPISODE How outdated “good mom” myths create toxic guilt for modern parents. The truth about your role in your teen's happiness (and why it's not what you think) Why modeling imperfection and asking for help makes you a better parent Practical tips to release shame, reclaim calm, and parent from your values 5 KEY TAKEAWAYS FOR PARENTS OF TEENS Guilt ≠ Shame: Guilt can spark change, but shame keeps you stuck in self-blame Use a values check when guilt creeps in—what matters to your family, not to others Build a “friend family” of supportive adults to share the emotional and logistical load Ask for help—and watch how it gives your teen permission to do the same Focus on the relationship, not your performance. You're a parent, not a perfectionist

He claimed the Trump administration is looking into stopping weather control and fixing energy issues, something UFO-tech could, if our imaginations are true, assist with to revolutionize the world. Dr Greer claims that the current coverup has left us in slavery and poverty… but not to worry because the UFO could bring us peace. He goes on to describe how Trump knows about wireless free energy, especially because of his uncle John G. Trump having handled many of the so-called Tesla papers. Greer also accused Elon Musk of lying about what corporations have in regard to the UFO. The overall theme of the interview was nothing more than the espousing of a religion. Dr Greer believes all the bad things are caused by humans and all the good things can be offered by the UFO. They will save us from pollution, economic insecurity, and even war. They will bring us the peace of a universal savior. These are all themes we also find linked to UFO abductions, which may have a strong connection to deep unconscious psychological fears. What is truly interesting is that all of these statements are reminiscent of other ideologies: The idea that the President has some secret knowledge that the public also somehow knows, but he can't disclose it for national security reasons, but he might if we are good, truly stinks of the Q-Anon cult. The idea that UFOs can save us from energy problems, pollution and weather related phenomena is just a more supernatural take on the climate change cult - humans are bad, etc., but either technocrats or aliens will be our saviors. But the idea that these craft have humanity's best interest in mind is based on shocking assumptions about dozens of different things: much of which is fallacy and our perception of time in regard to why they haven't just killed us already. If that wasn't enough, Dan Farah, the guy who produced Ready Player One, released a new documentary on UFOs at SXSW. This documentary explores the ideas of why UFO information cannot be revealed necessarily - because it would be unsafe to disclose what other countries could turn into weapons, something Dr Greer also claimed in the former interview. In other words, UFO disclosure would result in societal destruction. How interesting that this idea has been around since 1961 when NASA submitted “Proposed Studies on the Implications of Peaceful Space Activities for Human Affairs” to the U.S. Congress. Otherwise known as the Brookings Report, the document states: “Anthropological files contain many examples of societies, sure of their place in the universe, which have disintegrated when they had to associate with previously unfamiliar societies espousing different ideas and different life ways; others that survived such an experience usually did so by paying the price of changes in values and attitudes and behavior." This paragraph became part of the UFO-mythos with people still debating today if UFOs would destroy society by simply revealing their presence, something that would also happen if the Federal government revealed the same. This is all speculation, anecdotal, and subjective. Therefore much of this talk about disclosure is another version of the Epstein file release. There is something else lurking in the shadows. And if one were worried about the Carol Rosin statement - 'And remember Carol, the last card is the alien card. We're going to have to build space based weapons against aliens,' and all of it, he said, is a lie” - it should be known that there only need be a “threat,” not an alien invasion or project Bluebeam, which itself was only a theory proposed Serge Monast in the 1990s. And that THREAT was already identified; it has been with us the whole time. The UFO is inherently a threat. Recall the “Preliminary Assessment: UAP” report, released by the Office of the Director of National Intelligence in 2021: “UAP pose a hazard to safety of flight and could pose a broader danger if some instances represent sophisticated collection against U.S. military activities by a foreign government or demonstrate a breakthrough aerospace technology by a potential adversary.” This then brings us to the Club of Rome and its original report called “The First Global Revolution,” which discusses in 1991: “In searching for the new enemy to unite us, we came up with the idea that pollution, the threat of global warming, water shortages, famine and the like would fit the bill. In their totality and in their interactions these phenomena do constitute a common threat which demands the solidarity of all peoples. But in designating them as the enemy, we fall into the trap about which we have already warned, namely mistaking symptoms for cause. All these dangers are caused by human intervention and it is only through changing attitudes and behaviors that they can be overcome.  The real enemy, then, is humanity itself.” When Dan Farah was interviewed about his recent movie, he said “my interest in it really comes from growing up in the '80s and '90s and watching movies like E.T. and Close Encounters of the Third Kind countless times,” films we know were a result of, or partially a result of, a military-intelligence-government operation to flood pop culture with just such themes for a variety of experimental reasons - the Robertson Panel Report.The UFO-mythos has evolved steadily into a rebranded Great Reset, a promise of utopia and a new golden age. -FREE ARCHIVE (w. ads)SUBSCRIPTION ARCHIVEX / TWITTER FACEBOOKWEBSITECashApp: $rdgable EMAIL: rdgable@yahoo.com / TSTRadio@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/tst-radio--5328407/support.

Hosts Maris Schneider and Meghan Voll welcome Sarah Bidinosti to discuss her research on adapting traditional bone analysis methods for the digital age using CT scans. Sarah explains how techniques for estimating age, biological sex, and stature—commonly used in forensic and archaeological studies—must be refined when applied to digital scans. By creating a standardized methodology, she aims to improve accuracy and repeatability in osteobiography, the process of identifying unknown individuals based on skeletal characteristics. Our conversation explores the advantages of CT scans, which allow researchers to study bones non-invasively, preserving remains in forensic cases and with cultural artifacts like mummies. Sarah highlights challenges in translating physical bone analysis to the digital realm, as scan parameters and software algorithms can alter bone appearances. Sarah's work bridges archaeology, forensic science, and medical imaging, offering applications across cultures and time periods.

People's drinking habits are changing. New research from Heineken® and University of Oxford Professor Charles Spence shows that despite the acceptability of low and non-alcoholic drinks being at a high, choosing one can still raise eyebrows. The study—which surveyed 11,842 adults across five developed non-alcohol beer markets UK, USA, Spain, Japan, and Brazil—found that Gen-Z (18 to 26 years old) is the group facing social pressures around alcohol consumption the most. The survey found that 21% of Gen Z in these five markets have been called out about their choice of a non-alcoholic drink and say they have concealed drinking low or non-alcoholic drinks because of social pressures. The report also found that more than one-third have felt pressure to drink alcohol in some social situations. Professor Spence and Heineken® 0.0's study in human behavior investigated the persisting barriers to social acceptance of choosing non-alcoholic beverages. Some of the most interesting findings tell us: Gen Z men over the legal drinking age are amongst the most likely to feel choosing an alcohol-free drink could be a social faux pas. 38% of men in this age group say they would be willing to drink no or low-alcohol versions of alcoholic drinks but only if their friends do too. Spence explains, “For many, alcohol is no longer the default in social situations—we're seeing a shift towards more mindful consumption. Yet, in cultures where drinking alcohol is still predominantly viewed as the norm, opting out can be stigmatized.” Not everyone is concerned with judgment of their drinking choices, the findings show we're in the early stages of acceptance becoming the new normal. Half of the participants say that compared to five years ago, it is more acceptable to drink low or no-alcohol versions of alcoholic drinks. Participants acknowledge non-alcoholic drinkers as “cool” (9%) and “respectable” (25%) rather than “uncool” (4%) or “boring” (6%). Heineken®'s ‘0.0 Reasons Needed' campaign has been designed to send a clear message. Whilst social pressures around moderation still exist, Heineken® hopes to shatter the stigma associated with choosing not to drink alcohol, defending people's right to make judgment-free choices.

Christ's Torah: The Making of the New Testament in the Second Century (Routledge, 2023) explores the creation of the collection now known as the New Testament. While it is generally accepted that it did not emerge as a collection prior to the late second century CE, a more controversial question is how it came to be. How did the writings that make up the New Testament - The Gospels, the so-called Praxapostolos (Acts and the canonical letters), the Epistles of Paul, and Revelation - make their way into the collection, and what do we know about their possible historical origins, and in turn the emergence of the New Testament itself? The New Testament as we know it first became recognisable in more detail in Irenaeus of Lyon towards the end of the second century CE. However, questions remain as to how and by whom was it redacted. Was it a slow, organic process in which texts written by different authors, members of different communities and in various places, grew together into one book? Or were certain writings compiled on the basis of an editorial decision by an individual or a group of editors, revised for this purpose and partly harmonised with each other? This volume sketches out the complex development of the New Testament, arguing that key second century scholars played an important role in the emergence of the canonical collection and putting forward the possible historical origins of the text's composition. Markus Vinzent, who had held the H.G. Wood Chair in the History of Theology at the University of Birmingham (1999–2010) and was Professor for Theology and Patristics at the Department of Theology and Religious Studies, King's College London (2010–2021, ret.), is Fellow of the Max-Weber-Centre for Anthropological and Cultural Studies, University of Erfurt (2011–present). A recipient of awards from the British Academy, the Arts and Humanities Research Board, the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft, and the Agence Nationale de Recherche, France, he is the author of Writing the History of Early Christianity: From Reception to Retrospection (Cambridge University Press, 2019) and Resetting the Origins of Christianity: A New Theory of Sources and Beginnings (Cambridge University Press, 2023). Jonathon Lookadoo is Associate Professor at the Presbyterian University and Theological Seminary in Seoul, South Korea. While his interests range widely over the world of early Christianity, he is the author of books on the Epistle of Barnabas, Ignatius of Antioch, and the Shepherd of Hermas, including The Christology of Ignatius of Antioch (Cascade, 2023).

Hindi was a language that was created for the common folks by a foreign Christian missionary. The reason? Sanskrit was considered an elite, religious language only to be spoken by the few. The efforts of Christian missionaries in enabling the Indian to communicate and disseminate ideas is overlooked and derided, often in Hindi speeches. Linguistic scholar and researcher Dr Babu K Verghese unpacks the riveting historical contributions made by "Bible people" to uplift Bharat. Links and citation:(Video) Is ARARAT the Birthplace of INDO-EUROPEAN Civilisation? https://youtu.be/J9FD5Icq4gk?si=3K4vlzuIn0r2nAxf(Book) Let There Be India (Capsule Edition) https://www.amazon.in/Let-There-India-Babu-Verghese/dp/B07FMBT6DS/ref=sr_1_1?dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.TVvY1VEEn_ZojTWaNGunHYf2rTNvv40gwCTUgnXNHm94jRRymH0Sp22g7GnyWq2_.JF3dZQp2TNJfyfCLi6DlEJsbM1ghJcqfmu1MtUo6WDU&dib_tag=se&qid=1725647401&refinements=p_27%3ADr+Babu+K+Verghese&s=books&sr=1-1(Book) The Jewish Background of Indian People: A Historical, Archaeological, Anthropological and Etymological Study of "The Jewish Lost Tribes" https://www.amazon.in/Jewish-Background-Indian-People-Anthropological-ebook/dp/B00S2AOXFI#:~:text=The%20Jewish%20Background%20of%20Indian,%3A%20Amazon.in%3A%20Kindle%20StoreEquipping the believer defend their faith anytime, anywhere.

I know it's late, but I have been THROUGH it today getting this episode up for you, so you'd better listen! (Spotify, WTF???) Emily and Ky are back to talk about more weird challenges, wilding out MILFs, the reality shows they would be on, and updates on their favorite MILFs and daddies! Reality tv is an anthropological experiment.

Shaman & Medical Anthropologist, Dr Alberto Villoldo joins the podcast to reveal the great Inka Prophecy: Pachakuti, the emergence of new humans, and the global transformation taking place this year. The Indigenous seers foretold a potential mass extinction for humanity unless we make radical changes. By his mid-20s Alberto Villoldo was the youngest clinical professor at San Francisco State University. He was directing his own laboratory, the Biological Self-Regulation Lab, investigating how energy medicine and visualization could change the chemistry of the brain. Anthropological stories hinted that there were people around the globe who claimed to know such things, including the Inka in Peru, the few remaining "shamans" in today's modern civilization. Over two decades with the shamans in the jungles and high mountains of the Andes, Alberto Villoldo would discover that we are more than flesh and bone, that we are absolutely fashioned of Spirit and light. He is the founder of The Four Winds Society, which bridges ancient wisdom teaching with cutting-edge neuroscience to teach us how to bring about the life and health we have dreamed of. Alberto Villoldo's wealth of knowledge has germinated 22 books, including Shaman, Healer, Sage, and the Top-Ten Wall Street Journal bestseller, One Spirit Medicine. His book, The Heart of the Shaman: Stories & Practices of the Luminous Warrior, teaches us how to tap into the creative power of the Universe to dream a new world into being. His newest book, Grow a New Body, and the Grow a New Body Cookbook, teach the reader how they can take their health for the rest of their life! ___________________ PODCAST CHAPTERS 00:00 - Dr Alberto Villoldo Trailer 02:17 - New Humans & Global Transformation 05:58 - The Pachakuti and the Great Upheaval 08:51 - Shamanic Perspective on Time-Space 17:13 - Creation Stories and Beings/ETs from the Stars 20:57 - The Healing Power of Ice 24:17 - Understanding Death and Its Purpose 27:05 - Upgrading to Homo Luminous 35:48 - Higher Functioning Heart and Breathwork 41:50 - Breathing Techniques for Resetting the Body 45:47 - The Breath as the Essence of Who We Are 46:39 - The Shamanic Perspective on Death and the Spirit 48:38 - The Journey to the Lower World and Healing Trauma 51:07 - Operating in the Visible and Invisible Worlds 51:48 - The Mastery of Reincarnation and Choosing Destinies 53:17 - The Three Worlds and the Lower World 54:16 - Healing Relationships with Mother Earth and Father Sky 58:56 - Rites of Passage & Healing Mother / Father Wounds 01:01:51 - Embarking on the Hero's Journey & Fire Ceremony 01:18:34 - The Final Trio ___________________ Guests: Alberto Villoldo, Shaman & Founder of The Four Winds Society Website | https://thefourwinds.com/ Instagram | https://www.instagram.com/albertovilloldo_thefourwinds YouTube |  @TheFourWindsSociety  Luminous Warrior: Documentary | https://products.thefourwinds.com/luminous-warrior-documentary-optin-SoMe Online Courses | https://thefourwinds.com/online-courses/ Host: Emilio Ortiz Instagram | https://www.instagram.com/iamemilioortiz/ Subscribe to YouTube Channel |  @EmilioOrtiz  Watch Emilio's latest series on 4biddenknowledge TV l https://bit.ly/AwakenThe6thSense Shop Our Clothing Collection l https://www.unlockedmovement.com/collections/justtapin ___________________ Special Offerings to Support the Show: ✦ Make a One-Time or Recurring Donation on PayPal

In Professor Zietlyn's words, anthropology “has had enough of the big ideas already” -especially theories with a big ‘T'. In a discipline that seems to be constantly beset by ‘turns', or agonising over its status and ‘commensurability' across cultural differences, Professor Zietlyn in his latest book An Anthropological Toolkit: Sixty Useful Concepts (Berghahn Books, 2022) offers a way through the weeds, in presenting a way “to write about anthropological theory, without making a specific theoretical argument.” Drawing on an immense wealth of fieldwork and ethnographic experience, which has included anything from sociolinguistics and divination, to life-history writing and research on photography and football clubs, the book is also a call to embrace the messiness of writing about others' lives as best we can, as humbly as possible. The book will appeal to new graduates or veterans alike, presenting through a host of mini-essays an eclectic mix of theoretical concepts he has found helpful over the years. As he explains in the introduction. “This book promotes an eclectic, multi-faceted anthropology in which multiple approaches are applied in pursuit of the limited insights which each can afford…. I do not endorse any one of these ideas as supplying an exclusive path to enlightenment: I absolutely do not advocate any single position. As a devout nonconformist, I hope that the following sections provide material, ammunition and succour to those undertaking nuanced anthropological analysis (and their kin in related disciplines)…. Mixing up or combining different ideas and approaches can produce results that, in their breadth and richness, are productive for anthropology and other social sciences, reflecting the endless complexities of real life. …This is my response to the death of grand theory. I see our task as learning how to deal with that bereavement and how to resist the siren lures of those promising synoptic overviews.” David Zeitlyn has been working with Mambila people in Cameroon since 1985. He taught at the University of Kent, Canterbury, for fifteen years before moving to Oxford as Professor of Social Anthropology in 2010. His recent books include Mambila Divination: Framing Questions, Constructing Answers (Routledge, 2020) and An Anthropological Toolkit: Sixty Useful Concepts (Berghan Books, 2022).

In June, the Forum hosted a Mentoring Workshop for men across the country (and beyond) to consider the whys and hows of mentoring young boys into young men into men fully alive. It's always best to start by defining terms. And so, the opening lecture for the workshop weekend featured Dr. Joseph Lanzilotti, theology scholar and upper school teacher at The Heights School, explicating the kind of Christian anthropology that precedes a mentoring relationship. In other words, how are we to understand what man is before we try to help him grow?

Can a carnivore diet plan help you lose weight or even improve your teeth? Meat-based diet plans are growing in popularity to reverse obesity, but also type-II diabetes and even conditions like auto-immunity. So if you're looking to start with a carnivore diet plan, where do you get started? Firstly it's important to understand how a carnivore diet will affect your whole body, and the best place to start is your mouth. Anthropological evidence shows that the ancestral human diet is based on animal foods. Studies show that the human jaw grows sufficiently to fit wisdom teeth and prevent crooked teeth. It also shows that dental decay and gum disease did not exist in humans who ate a carnivore style diet with animal foods. While humans are omnivores, it's an interesting exploration to see how carnivore diet plans directly affect teeth. We know that most dental disease are caused by the overconsumption of sugar, refined flours, and carbohydrates that drive disease causing bacteria.Today my guest is the carnivore dentist, Dr. Kevin Stock. Dr. Stock is a practicing dentist who has used a carnivore diet for his own performance and exercise based goals as well as the benefits exposed to his patients.Dr Stock's driving compass is to optimizing health and fitness, Early in his career he was drawn to a niche area of dentistry called Dental Sleep Medicine (DSM). After graduating dental school, he opened a practice strictly dedicated to treating Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) and helping people sleep better by breathing better.He is currently developing a comfortable, convenient, cost-effective solution for sleep disordered breathing. This led to years of research, development, and testing that resulted in the NED Device, a patented nasal device to treat snoring.Throughout his career he has used the history of human dietary consumption and helps his patients to use a carnivore diet plan for better dental health. To learn more about Dr. Kevin Stock you can visit: https://www.kevinstock.io/https://www.instagram.com/kevinstock12/https://www.youtube.com/user/KevinJStockGuitar cover end of episode: 3am by Matchbox 20

In this profound episode of the Echo Podcast, Pastor Dan Sinkhorn and Adrienne Tarullo of Shiloh Church delve into the concept of generational sins from biblical exegesis to personal experiences. By exploring verses from Old Testament, they shed light on how our formative experiences shape our perception of sin and faith. The subject of generational habits, the fear of questioning traditions, and the possibility of disrupting them for a healthier life story is discussed. We tell the tale of cutting ham tradition by Zig Ziglar as a vivid example of unconscious family habits and how to liberate oneself if they are leading down a harmful path. The conversation deepens as we engage you with Anthropological roots of fear and comfort zones, taking you through the grafting process as a metaphor for transformation and evolution. Also discussed are concepts of 'normal' that are socially imposed and how to embrace your unique path. This episode is a wholesome guide that acknowledges past wounds, encourages resilience, and reinstates the power of choice in reshaping responses to life's tribulations. The episode also underscores the significant role of faith and community support in the recovery journey. A shift in perspective can significantly impact how we perceive and deal with life's challenges, leading to profound personal growth. Join us in this spiritual exploration to break the cycle of harmful family traits, inspire courage, and instigate change for a meaningful future. This episode is filled with profound insights, real-life experiences, and forward-looking transformations. It serves as a guide to personal growth and healing.

In Photography and Making Bedouin Histories in the Naqab, 1906-2013:: An Anthropological Approach (Routledge, 2023), Emilie Le Febvre takes us to the Naqab Desert where Bedouin use photographs to make, and respond to, their own histories. She argues Bedouin presentations of the past are selective, but increasingly reliant on archival documents such as photographs, which spokespersons treat as evidence of their local histories amid escalating tensions in Israel-Palestine. These practices shape Bedouin visual historicity; the diverse ways people produce their pasts in the present through images.  The book charts these processes through the afterlives of six photographs as they circulate between the Naqab's entangled visual economies – a transregional landscape organized by cultural ideals of proximity and assemblages of Bedouin iconography. She illustrates how representational contentions associated with tribal, civic, and Palestinian-Israeli politics influence how images do history work in this society. Here, Bedouin value photographs not because they evidence singular narratives of the past; rather, the knowledges inscribed by photography are manifold as they support diverse constructions of Naqab Bedouin history and society. In this episode, Emilie joins me to discuss the ethics of photographs of the Naqab Bedouin as a historical source; the nuances of gender norms around photographing Bedouin women; and how social media and modern technology have changed how photographs are used and understood.

Yale Anthropologist Lisa Messeri spent a year doing field work in Los Angeles in 2018 studying the political ecology of the VR community, and will be releasing her landmark book called In the Land of the Unreal: Virtual and Other Realities in Los Angeles on Friday, March 8th. It's the best book about the culture of VR that I've read so far as it is pulling in many insights from Science and Technology Studies (STS), anthropology, social sciences, sci fi, pop culture, and philosophy. Making claims about reality is daunting for any working scholar in the 21st Century, and Messeri uses the feeling of "unreality" as a analytical tool to analyze not only virtual reality, but also the fracturing nature of our political context, but also the unreality of Los Angeles as the factory of dreams and façade-like architecture that blurs the boundary for what's deeply real vs what's surface scaffolding enough to transport you into another reality. Messeri uses the framing of fantasy to interrogate a number of claims being made by the VR community circa 2018. Fantasy by her definition could include both positive aspirational dreams, but they could also turn out to be deluded illusions. I personally prefer the using the phrase of potential since it is a bit more neutral for me, and includes both the promising positive potentials as well as the more perilous negative potentials. But she splits her book into three parts the Fantasy of Location exploring the unreality of Los Angeles as well as how VR transports you into another world per Mel Slaters place illusion. The second part is the Fantasy of Being deconstructs the VR as the ultimate empathy machine per Chris Milk's infamous 2015 TED Talk. Then the third part explores the Fantasy of Representation with the aspirations of the LA VR community to create a more diverse and equitable ecosystem that transcends the bias and power dynamics of Silicon Valley. In each one of these three sections, Messeri uses case studies and follows specific individuals over time to see whether or not some of these aspirations and potentials end up becoming grounded into physical reality, or whether they end up collapsing into a more deluded illusion. I was inspired to dig into my backlog of 800+ unpublished Voices of VR podcast episodes to publish some interviews that I conducted between 2017-2019 featuring some of the main characters and protagonists featured in Messeri's book: Marci Jastrow is featured in Chapter 3 letting Messeri become a scholar-in-residence at Technicolor Experience Center Carrie Shaw of Embodied Labs is featured in Chapter 5, and radically opens up her business to Messeri to study Jackie Morie is featured in Chapter 6 as Messeri deconstructs some of the gender essentialist claims that VR is a medium that's a natural fit for women. And Joanna Popper is featured in Chapter 7 as Messeri breaks down the unique pathways into emerging technology that she was noting as an interesting trend from an anthropological perspective. I had a chance to read through an advanced copy of In the Land of the Unreal: Virtual and Other Realities in Los Angeles, and it's already started to make a huge impact on the way that I think about the many dimensions of unreality in our present day realities ranging from the surreal experiences of VR presence to the fractured reality bubbles of our political discourse to the ways in which techno-utopian solutionism can impact the philosophies that are driving how technologies like AI are developed aspiring towards speculations of Artificial General Intelligence or Artificial Superintelligence. I even started applying Messeri's unreality analytic to make sense of some of what Alvin Wang Graylin was saying in our discussion about Our Next Reality. I said, "I found myself is this kind of unreality of a potential imaginal future of this post-scarcity, post-labor context where all of our problems have been solved,

Show Notes: Terry Roopnaraine, a technical consultant for international development projects, has been working in the field for about 25 years. He provides technical services to support projects funded by bilateral donors, UN agencies, and multilateral agencies like the World Bank. Over the last decade, an increasingly important area of the practice has been working with foundations. Terry's work involves providing services that are required to make these projects work and deliver the best impacts on the ground for the beneficiary populations they serve. There is a huge accountability chain because these projects are often funded through the public purse of one country or another, so there must be some kind of proper accountability and evaluation. The Role of a Technical Consultant Terry talks about the roles a technical consultant might play. He divides his work into two broad areas: project implementation and management, and learning evidence and evaluation. The implementation side of technical consulting focuses on getting a project up and running, recruiting staff, putting in inputs, designing activities, and ensuring that things are run according to time and budget. The learning evidence and building the knowledge base aspect of technical consulting is also crucial, as it ensures that a program is delivering on time, not leaking funds, and has robust monitoring systems in place to capture change systematically. Evaluation of effectiveness is another dimension of technical consulting, as it is about delivering the best impact for the beneficiary population.  Research and Evaluation in Technical Consulting Over his career, Terry has worked more in the research evidence and evaluation side of technical consulting, which is partly an artifact of being a refugee from academia. His intellectual and academic orientation was research-directed, and when he moved to development work, he focused more on research evaluation and evidence building. One of his early projects was Conditional Cash Transfer Evaluations in Latin America, which were an aid instrument that aimed to incentivize uptake of health and education services. These programs were popular throughout Latin America and were easy to evaluate quantitatively. However, there was a growing awareness that the program's effects were not as expected. To understand why the program didn't have the expected effects, Terry began conducting ethnographic and qualitative research. He worked with other qualitative researchers to push the idea that understanding the voices of people who were benefiting from these programs was important. Terry talks about the projects he worked on during the early 2000s in Nicaragua, El Salvador, and Peru and how his background in anthropology influenced his approach, and how they conducted research differently from previous projects. Challenges of Conducting Ethnographic Research  Terry explains the challenges of conducting semi-structured interviews for management consultants and how they approach this process. The interviews were conducted in a way that was more accessible to anthropologists than for management consultants. Terry talks about the process of conducting ethnographic research in a short training workshop format. He highlights the complementarity between quantitative research findings and qualitative research findings. Survey work is broad and generalizable, while qualitative research is done over a smaller sample and is more in-depth. For example, in Nicaragua, an iron supplement for children was given out for three years, but blood tests showed no effect. In the next round of community field research, the researchers asked questions about the iron sprinkles and found that it was commonly believed that the sprinkles had a terrible reputation due to alleged health risks, and no-one wanted to pass them out.  The Importance of Household and Nutrition Research Terry also discusses the importance of household research in nutrition research. Household research is crucial because it helps observe people preparing food, feeding children, hygiene, sanitation practices, dietary diversity, and meal frequency. One example is in Cambodia, where an organization gave eligible families chickens to supplement their meat-poor diets with eggs and animal protein. However, people were not increasing their consumption of chicken and eggs, instead selling the chickens to buy bulk staples like rice. Recently, a project in Rwanda for UNICEF found that people living in resource-constrained circumstances are looking for bulk heavy foods, such as maize meal, sorghum, cassava, or rice, as the first thing they look for because they are concerned about financial or food security, and these foods provide bulk and store well. This approach allows for a deeper understanding of the issues faced by people in these communities. He discusses the importance of a sufficient and diverse diet for children, particularly under two years old, in remote areas.  Terry shares his experience with personal safety in various countries, including rural areas where he has worked. And while he has taken a Hostile Environment training course, he believes that shared humanity is the most effective safety mechanism, as most people have no desire to do harm. By being receptive, respectful, and engaging with people in a positive way, most places are generally safe. Effectiveness in Development Aid and Philanthropy Programs Regarding the effectiveness of development aid and philanthropy programs, he states that the appropriateness and relevance of a program to an area are crucial, as it should address specific needs in a direct way. He identifies how certain approaches are ineffective, and stresses that a direct relationship between needs on the ground and the program is more likely to succeed. The design of the program should be simple and efficient, as most successful programs are simple and straightforward. The context of the program is also important. The more functioning the governance context, the more likely the programs are to succeed. For example, in Rwanda, a country that has experienced genocide, the efficiency of food distribution was impressive. Terry talks about how initiatives worked in Rwanda and the importance of collaboration with government ministries to deliver health, nutrition, or education projects, as they are more likely to produce impact. However, in countries with weak governance, the government may not be a viable partner in delivering development programming. To scale up projects, the government must be involved.  Timestamps: 00:04 Technical consulting in international development 05:32 Technical consulting in development projects 12:35 Anthropological research methods in cash transfer programs 20:35 Ethnographic research methods and findings in global health 27:18 Food security, safety, and anthropology in various countries 33:18 Development program effectiveness with a development economist Links:  UNICEF Ethiopia study: https://www.unicef.org/ethiopia/reports/unicef-generation-el-nino Paper on El Salvador's Conditional Cash Transfer program: https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1080/00220388.2015.1134780 Paper on nutrition in Rwanda: https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/mcn.13420 Study on Peru's CCT in indigenous communities: https://publications.iadb.org/es/pueblos-indigenas-y-programas-de-transferencias-condicionadas-ptc-estudio-etnografico-sobre-la-0 Suggested readings: Rossi, Lipsey, Freeman: Evaluation, a systematic approach (not terribly exciting, but a real wealth of evaluation info) Olivier de Sardan & Piccoli: Cash transfers in context: an anthropological perspective (this collection contains an essay I wrote together with my collaborators on the Peru project) Lewis, Rodgers and Woolcock: Popular representations of development: insights from novels, films, TV and social media (fun read, one of the authors is a good friend of mine) Amartya Sen: Development as freedom (still a classic) Paul Richards: Ebola: a people's science helped end an epidemic (fascinating study, quite anthropological, of the community response to Ebola in Sierra Leone) Unleashed is produced by Umbrex, which has a mission of connecting independent management consultants with one another, creating opportunities for members to meet, build relationships, and share lessons learned.

Whistleblower Ilana Rachel Daniels tells her journey starting out as an anthropologist, becoming a health advocate, and eventually the only sane voice during the 2020 pandemic, crying out on the international stage and revealing what was really happening in her native land. This is an Heroic Conversation from one of our top truth seekers in the world. Today she continues to get the truth out through The Jerusalem Report and her new podcast, The Common Denominator. About Ilana Rachel Daniels: With a background in Anthropological study, Ilana Rachel Daniel has long asked the question, "What are the common denominators that can define us all?" Her approach has been to view the world in its widest possible lens. Twenty years of research and practice in the arena of natural health and medicine gave Ilana the language to defend informed consent and bodily autonomy against Big Pharma. The combination of the two allowed Ilana to see the larger picture of what was at stake when the global Pandemic of 2020 was declared, and our fundamental human rights and civil liberties began to be threatened at an accelerated pace. Ilana became a key voice out of Israel, challenging the dominant narrative pushed by governments, pharma, and the media who,operation mockingbird style, supported the unprecedented usurping of our freedoms. Ilana stood as a member of Parliament in the 2021 Israel elections for the human rights"Rappeh" party, and writes, produces, and hosts the "The Jerusalem Report" which has aired for over two years on Robert F. Kennedy, Jr.'s Children's Health Defense. Ilana's initiative, "The Common Denominator", sets out now to explore the discussion in a broader format.
