Last year, the US may have recorded the lowest murder rate in its 250 year history. Other crimes have poorer historical data, but are at least at ~50 year lows. This post will do two things: Establish that our best data show crime rates are historically low Argue that this is a real effect, not just reporting bias (people report fewer crimes to police) or an artifact of better medical care (victims are more likely to survive, so murders get downgraded to assaults) https://www.astralcodexten.com/p/record-low-crime-rates-are-real-not

If you have a spicy kid — the one who knows every button, tests every boundary, and can reduce you to screaming about shoes at 7am — this episode is for you.And if you've ever tried to stay calm, validate feelings, offer choices, read the books, do the things — and still felt like nothing was working?In this episode, I sat down with Dr. Paul Sunseri — child and family psychologist, TEDx speaker, published researcher, and developer of Intensive Family-Focused Treatment (IFFT) — to talk about what actually works with strong-willed, oppositional, and defiant kids. We dig into why gentle parenting gets misunderstood, why some kids just come into the world harder to parent (and what to do about it), how to get kids to actually listen without badgering or yelling, why you never have to argue with your child again, and what to do when you know what you should say but you're too triggered to say it.What You'll LearnWhy some kids come into the world harder to parent, and why that is not a reflection of your parentingThe bank account metaphor: why harder kids need more deposits, and what happens when the account runs dryHow to set up a morning routine that runs on incentives and independence instead of chaos and naggingHow to handle disrespect at any age — including the specific language that works with teenagersWhy you never have to argue with your child again — and exactly how to exit any argument in progressGentle Parenting Reimagined Book Dr. Sunseri's website

On this episode, Travis is joined in studio by his producer Eric for a laid-back but sharp conversation on popular money quotes, financial “gurus,” and what their advice really looks like in the real world. From Warren Buffett and Dave Ramsey to Ramit Sethi, Elon Musk, OnlyFans creators, and Andrew Tate, they unpack when these ideas are genuinely helpful—and when they fall apart once you factor in real life, kids, vacations, and small-business margins. On this episode we talk about: Whether “make money while you sleep or work until you die” is realistic advice for most people Dave Ramsey's “debt is normal, be abnormal” philosophy and when leveraging debt can actually make sense The Belle Delphine bathwater story, frozen PayPal funds, and choosing the right payment processor for “weird” products How minimum wage hikes, automation, and robots could impact small businesses and low-skill jobs Why rich people focus on what they make (not just what they spend), and how to apply that mindset without delaying your whole life Top 3 Takeaways Building income that works while you sleep is a powerful goal, but most people need a practical bridge strategy that includes active income and intentional risk, not just slogans. Debt is a tool that can either destroy you or accelerate you; used intentionally for high-probability outcomes, it can help, but mindless or emotional debt is almost always a disaster. Long-term financial health comes more from increasing your earning power than endlessly cutting expenses, but you still need to align your money strategy with the life you actually want to live now. Notable Quotes “You can use debt, just be as intentional and careful as you can about the debt that you incur because there are real life consequences that come from putting yourself in too much debt.” “If you're sacrificing living life now for the pursuit of a better financial future, I think you might come to regret some of those decisions later.” “Your kids are only going to be six and nine once, so if you want to go on vacation with them, you have to figure out a way to do that without sacrificing your future financially—and the best way is to focus on increasing your income.” Connect with Travis: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/travischappell/ Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@travismakesfriends/videos Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/travischappell/ Other: https://travischappell.com/ Travis Makes Money is made possible by High Level – the All-In-One Sales & Marketing Platform built for agencies, by an agency.

The duo analyzes Persia's historical resilience, noting that even Rome struggled to subdue the empire and eventually had to treat it as an equal. They argue Americans lack "cultural sensibility," viewing Iran through modern clichés rather than recognizing its history of surviving imperialism. A thought experiment explores the potential for internal collapse, suggesting that both the US and Iran risk fracturing into independent, warlord-led "statelets" if central authority fails.1700 AENEAS

Epysode 72: The Travel Agency by The Travel Agency. Additional commentary by Uncle Herff. This week we explore the self-titled album by The Travel Agency, a quietly adventurous record that drifted through the late-'60s underground and never quite found its audience. Blending folk-rock and studio psychedelia, the album feels like a band's debut record where they are trying to find their feet. Over the years, it's become a bit of a cult-classic for some, while others dismiss it as nothing more than a throwaway from the era. Take a listen and decide for yourself. I hope you dig The Travel Agency as much as I do. - Farmer John ===CONNECT & SUPPORT=== Transport yourself into the realm of grooviness by supporting us on Patreon for as little as $2/month using this link --> patreon.com/FarmerJohnMusic Use this link to follow us on Facebook --> https://www.facebook.com/farmerjohnmusic/ Use this link to follow us on Instagram --> https://www.instagram.com/vinylrelics/ Use this link to follow us on TikTok --> https://www.tiktok.com/@vinylrelicspodcast Use this link to follow us on BlueSky --> https://bsky.app/profile/farmerjohnmusic.bsky.social And find us on X @VinylRelicsPod Email me @ farmerjohnmusic@gmail.com ===LINKS=== Fransisco Lupica interview from 2017: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tvFDqZHbSMM ===THE MUSIC=== Songs used in this Epysode, in order of appearance.

In this episode, I break down why people argue over words instead of the real point. When someone can't challenge the substance of what you're saying, they retreat to semantics. They focus on tone, wording, or definitions because it feels safer than dealing with the actual issue. I explain how this is often about protecting identity, not seeking clarity. If you want to be a high-quality communicator, you have to listen to what someone is trying to say, not just pick apart how they said it. Show Notes: [03:26]#1 Semantics are used to avoid losing status. [08:49]#2 Semantics create moral cover. [15:15]#3 Semantics give the illusion of precision without risk.

SHOW #1667 Judge Pastor Pernid Ferner and Sovereign Citizen Glenda Argue In Court Over Traffic Violation
I don't remember who first told me to read Yanis Varoufakis's Techno-Feudalism: What Killed Capitalism, but whoever you are—thank you and also how dare you. This book broke something in my brain, in that good way where you realize the map you've been using doesn't match the territory anymore and now you have to rethink everything. Varoufakis isn't a theologian, but reading him felt like encountering a prophetic voice—someone naming the powers and principalities of our moment with a clarity that made me uncomfortable in all the right ways. So what you're about to read isn't exactly a book review. It's more like the stuff that ran through my head while I was reading—the connections I couldn't stop making to our faith, our politics, our souls. I kept thinking about Paul's language of powers and principalities. I kept thinking about the psalmist's warning against idols. I kept thinking about Jesus flipping tables in the temple, and wondering what he'd do with an algorithm. Varoufakis gave me a new vocabulary for something I'd been feeling but couldn't name: the sense that we've crossed into a new kind of unfreedom, one that's less about chains on our bodies and more about the curation of our desires. Consider this an invitation. Read the book. Argue with it. Let it mess with you. And then let's figure out together what faithfulness looks like when the lords live in the cloud.

UPCOMING ONLINE LENT CLASS: Jesus in Galilee w/ John Dominic Crossan What can we actually know about Jesus of Nazareth? And, what difference does it make? This Lenten class begins where all of Dr. John Dominic Crossan's has work begins: with history. What was actually happening in Galilee in the 20s CE? What did Herod Antipas' transformation of the "Sea of Galilee" into the commercial "Sea of Tiberias" mean for peasant fishing communities? Why did Jesus emerge from John's baptism movement proclaiming God's Rule through parables—and what made that medium so perfectly suited to that message? Only by understanding what Jesus' parables meant then can we wrestle with what they might demand of us now. The class is donation-based, including 0, so join, get info, and join up here.

Whether it starts over a sock left on the floor or a political debate that erupts a little too early at the holiday table, conflict is part of life. It's not that we argue all the time, it's that these moments stick with us. Sometimes they clear the air and help us grow; sometimes they shut us down and leave resentment simmering for years.

Will Alex Murdaugh get his murder convictions overturned? Investigative Journalists Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell recap everything that went down Wednesday when Team Murdaugh and state prosecutor Creighton Waters argued their cases for and against a new murder trial in front of the South Carolina Supreme Court. Despite a performance that can only be described as legally underwhelming, Alex Murdaugh may be closer than ever to getting a new murder trial. To the surprise of no one, Dick Harpootlian used his time in front of the justices to do some good ole boy flirting, telling stories about himself and… Aaron Burr…? Mandy and Liz dig into the systemic rot underneath the theatrics: the two-tiered justice system that keeps men like Alex Murdaugh in the game, the media's troubling tendency to smooth the jagged edges of truth, and why a new trial would have absolutely nothing to do with innocence and everything to do with power, ego, and money. Lot's to cover… Let's Dive in…

HEALTH NEWS A Simple Diet Change Could Slow Liver Cancer Brief, intensive exercise helps patients with panic disorder more than standard care Lucid dreaming could be used for mental health therapy, new study says US cancer institute studying ivermectin's ‘ability to kill cancer cells Too many saturated fats may be more harmful than too many refined carbohydrates. Clips Andrew Bridgen - https://x.com/ABridgen/status/2020573528571977993?s=20 MAHA Alliance Mike Tyson Super Bowl Commercial - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jg1SjFt1a_U KETO DIET RISKS The rationale for Keto Diet by its advocates Restricting carbohydrates, suppressing insulin and ketosis will lead to better metabolic heath, increase weight loss, reduce inflammation, and protect from chronic diseases. Keto Claim: Carbohydrates raise insulin leading to fat storage – keto lowers insulin and burns body fat better Debunking: Ketosis is a metabolic state and not a health outcome. For example ketones can be elevated by very long fasting, starvation, different illnesses and uncontrolled diabetes. Keto Claim: By minimizing carbs keto stabilizes blood sugar, reduce insulin spikes, and improve insulin sensitivity that benefits those with type 2 diabetes Debunked: This claim contradicts the evidence of induced hepatic insulin resistance and glucose intolerance in longer-term studies. In animal models, keto diets impair blood sugar regulation within several days, which shows harm for metabolic health. Keto Claim: Ketones are seen as “clean” fuel that advocates claim are anti inflammatory and neuroprotective. Believe that this along with ketosis lowers triglycerides, raises HDL cholesterol, and improves lipid profiles. They argue that the increase in LDL cholesterol is benign. Claim saturated fats are harmless if carbs are low Debunked: This claim is undermined by the increased LDL cholesterol, triglycerides, and cardiovascular risks from saturated fats in animal products. Meta-analyses show no long-term lipid improvements from keto diets. Rather this is the risk in elevated low-density lipoprotein and very-low-density lipoproteins that increase cardiovascular disease Also, insulin reduction does not override the quality of fat. LDL cholesterol and ApoB, as well as atherosclerosis, increase significantly on an animal based diet. Saturated fat still remains a causal factor for cardiovascular disease. Keto Claim: High protein and fat increases satiety and therefore reduces hunger Debunking: Weight loss is primarily from reduced intake due to satiety, not fat-burning efficiency. Long-term keto adherence often leads to weight regain with no significant sustained benefits for visceral fat or appetite control. hort term weight loss is not same as long term benefits. A study shows that weight loss at 3-6 months on a keto diet disappears by 12 months Keto Claim: It enhances brain function and energy that then improves mental clarity and mood. Argue that animal products like eggs and organ meats provides choline and other nutrients for brain health. Debunked: There is no strong evidence for this claim. In fact keto's nutrient deficiencies and lack of fiber in the long term can lead to fatigue, constipation and in women neural tubal defects. Keto's claims are only based on short term trials. Keto Claim: Use the evolutionary argument that humans evolved eating meat and fat – same argument the paleo folks used. Therefore, they believe keto diets align with human biology Debunked: A big study in Science in 2025 analyzed tooth enamel from skeletons of some of our oldest human ancestors, 3.5 million years ago, and found they ate predominately a plant based diet with no substantial sigh of mammalian meat. The isotopes matched herbivores (fruits, leaves and grasses, tubers, nuts, other vegetation) not carnivores. Keto Diet Risks It is worth noting, according to the Northwestern University Health site, there is a sizable drop out rate of participants in keto trials. Although, there are studies that show keto does what it claims in the short term, there are no long-term human data to support their claims that an animal-based diet does this efficiently. Important, research leans in the direction to indicate that keto's benefits – especially weight loss and glucose reduction, are transient and may not be directly related to animal food consumption itself but rather to calorie reduction and limiting glycogen. Long term prospective studies and systematic meta analysis evaluations consistently show high red meat consumption, full-fat dairy and animal fats are associated with the following medical conditions. This is true even when carbohydrate intake is low A good thorough study in JAMA shows that unprocessed red meat mildly increases all cause mortality – about 3-5% per 100 grams meat per day High red and processed meat consumption increases carcinogenic N-nitroso compounds and heterocyclic amines that raise cancer risks by up to 18% per 50-100 grams/day – from meta analysis in the European Journal of Epidemiology Dairy increases IGF-1 levels thereby too much calcium also suppressing Vitamin D and elevating prostate cancer risks by 79% per 400 gram dairy per day. Worse for processed meats that inreases risk by 21% per 20 grams/day – American Journal of Epidemiology Red meat is linked to hormonal disruptions and carcinogens contributing breast cancer – European Journal of Cancer Total unprocessed red meat consumption shows a modest 5% risk in pancreatic cancer per 100 grams/day. – From journal Clinical Nutrition Many meta-analyses on meats have a relationship to stomach/gastric cancer, but processed meats are worse than unprocessed red meat. From study in Nutrients – 24 studies showed unprocessed red meat associated with gastric cancer by about 25% increase risk for every 100 grams/day. Unprocessed red meat is linked to an 11% higher risk in overall cardiovascular disease risk due to inflammation and endothelial dysfunction. – from European Heart Journal Saturated fats in meats increases non-HDL cholesterol and blood pressure and raises the risks of ischemic heart disease by 119% per 100 grams/day red meat – from American J Clinical Nutrition Red meat diets reduce LDL Cholesterol much less than plant proteins and thereby increase atherosclerosis risks – from the journal Circulation Red meats (an processed meats also in this study) contributes to insulin resistance via heme iron and raises Type 2 diabetes risks by up to 51% per 50 grams/day – International Journal Environmental Research in Public Health Saturated fats in unprocessed red meat has a modest positive 12% increase with stroke risk – From European Heart Journal Unprocessed poultry consumption shows a modest 4% increase in incident cardiovascular events per 100 grams/day. This is believed to be due to arachidonic acid poultry – in JAMA Red meat contributes to sodium and saturated fat intact raising hypertension conditions by 14% per 50-100 gram/day – from journal Advanced Nutrition Saturated fats from animal products cause lipotoxicity and insulin resistance, that promotes hepatic fat accumulation leading to non-alcoholic fatty liver disease – from Cardiovascular Development and Disease High animal protein increases urinary calcium and acid overload leading to the formation of kidney stones – from the journal Nutrient Animal-heavy diets have low fiber and micronutrient intake that contribute to nutrient deficiencies. Also causes constipation that can lead to immune system issues. – from the journal Nutrients Red meat, dairy, and eggs disrupts the gut metabolism of carnitine and choline. This promotes TMAO plaque formation and inflammation that leads to atherosclerosis. – from Journal of Cardiovascular Development. Although unprocessed meat consumption has not been adequately associated with dementia and Alzheimer's – yes, processed meats do – there are studies showing red meat is associated with “subjective cognitive decline” (SCD) which is related to precursors to dementia and Alzheimer's. A study in journal Neurology links unprocessed red meat eaten at 1 or more servings per day to 16% higher risk in SCD. High caloric density from saturated animal fats displaces fiber that contributes to weight gain obesity. From Neal Barnard in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition Animal products transmit prions that are associated with neurodegenerative disorders.

Life without parole. In Virginia, that's not a figure of speech. There's no parole board, no time off for good behavior, no path out. Brendan Banfield is 40 years old. Barring something extraordinary on appeal, he will die in a state prison.So what does "extraordinary" look like? Defense attorney Bob Motta is here to explain what Banfield's appellate team is actually going to argue — and why most of it faces near-impossible odds.First, let's be clear about what appeals are and aren't. They're not about whether the jury got it wrong. Appellate courts don't retry cases. They look for legal errors — things the judge did that violated the defendant's rights or tainted the proceedings. Banfield's team will argue several things: that Juliana's deal was too coercive, that evidence was buried, that the digital forensics fight was mishandled.Bob breaks down each argument and its chances. The au pair deal is a tough sell — courts generally allow cooperating witness agreements as long as juries know about them, and this jury knew. The digital evidence angle is more interesting — the prosecution's own forensic guy got reassigned when his findings didn't match their theory. If the defense can prove something was withheld, that's a potential Brady violation. But proving it and getting a new trial are two different things.The biggest obstacle is "harmless error." Even when something goes wrong, courts routinely say the outcome would've been the same anyway. Getting past that barrier after a jury heard weeks of testimony is brutally hard. Bob doesn't sugarcoat the odds.#BrendanBanfield #BanfieldAppeal #LifeWithoutParole #VirginiaAppeals #BobMotta #ChristineBanfield #BradyViolation #CriminalJustice #HiddenKillers #AppellateProcessJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

President Trump signed a $1.2 trillion bill to end the government shutdown. The funding for DHS lasts for 14 days as Democrats continue with a bunch of outrageous demands. Bill and Hillary Clinton will testify before Congress, which will be made available to the public. Congressman Chip Roy has been fighting to safeguard our elections since 2024, now his more robust Save America Act is a new and improved version of the widely supported SAVE Act. The bill adds a Voter ID requirement for voting in federal elections while maintaining the original bill's proof-of-citizenship requirement for voter registration. It will be up to Senate Leader Thune to bring this to the Senate floor and create a verbal filibuster. This will be where Democrats have to take the floor and explain to the American people why having and ID to vote and proof of US citizenship to vote is a bad idea. CNN has already blown the lid off of this argument as roughly 80% of Americans agree that voter ID should be required. Of all places, Texas is ground zero for an uprising of Islam and a stronghold of the Muslim brotherhood. Congressman Roy looks to places like London and Paris, which have been overrun by Muslims as a warning to what will happen in America. A bio-lab in Las Vegas ran by Chinese nationals was raided recently. Inside the lab they found blood, tissue and other bodily fluid samples and serums; and thousands of vials of unlabeled fluids and suspected biological material. Investigators also found "pathogen-labeled containers” with labels such as “dengue fever,” “HIV,” and “malaria,” the report said, along with 1,000 mice. Congressman Chip Roy unpacks the Save America act and the future of our elections and our country. Featuring: Rep.

The administration says the deal protects American users from Chinese influence, but many national security experts argue it falls short. Nick Schifrin reports.
