It's an action-packed day at the History of Literature! First, Jacke recounts the story of Dr. Johnson racing to the aid of his friend, the playwright Oliver Goldsmith, whose landlady was threatening him with debtor's prison. Naturally, the great critic and dictionary author Johnson found a very literary way to help. Then Jacke is joined by author Ken Krimstein, whose graphic novel Einstein in Kafkaland: How Albert Fell Down the Rabbit Hole and Came Up with the Universe looks at the critical year that Albert Einstein spent in Kafka's Prague. How did these men - one a scientist, the other an artist - approach the world's biggest questions? And finally, Bartholomew Ryan, a scholar who's devoted his life to Fernando Pessoa, stops by to discuss his choice for the last book he will ever read. Will he choose something by Pessoa? Special Announcement: The History of Literature Podcast Tour is happening in May 2026!

Einstein's Fridge: How the Difference Between Hot and Cold Explains the Universe (Scribner, 2021) tells the incredible epic story of the scientists who, over two centuries, harnessed the power of heat and ice and formulated a theory essential to comprehending our universe. “Although thermodynamics has been studied for hundreds of years…few nonscientists appreciate how its principles have shaped the modern world” (Scientific American). Thermodynamics—the branch of physics that deals with energy and entropy—governs everything from the behavior of living cells to the black hole at the center of our galaxy. Not only that, but thermodynamics explains why we must eat and breathe, how lights turn on, the limits of computing, and how the universe will end.The brilliant people who decoded its laws came from every branch of the sciences; they were engineers, physicists, chemists, biologists, cosmologists, and mathematicians. From French military engineer and physicist Sadi Carnot to Lord Kelvin, James Joule, Albert Einstein, Emmy Noether, Alan Turing, and Stephen Hawking, author Paul Sen introduces us to all of the players who passed the baton of scientific progress through time and across nations. Incredibly driven and idealistic, these brave pioneers performed groundbreaking work often in the face of torment and tragedy. Their discoveries helped create the modern world and transformed every branch of science, from biology to cosmology.“Elegantly written and engaging” (Financial Times), Einstein's Fridge brings to life one of the most important scientific revolutions of all time and captures the thrill of discovery and the power of scientific progress to shape the course of history.

A HORA DO MILAGRE1 Certo dia Pedro e João estavam subindo ao templo na hora da oração, às três horas da tarde. 2 Estava sendo levado para a porta do templo chamada Formosa um aleijado de nascença, que ali era colocado todos os dias para pedir esmolas aos que entravam no templo. 3 Vendo que Pedro e João iam entrar no pátio do templo, pediu-lhes esmola. 4 Pedro e João olharam bem para ele e, então, Pedro disse: “Olhe para nós!” 5 O homem olhou para eles com atenção, esperando receber deles alguma coisa.6 Disse Pedro: “Não tenho prata nem ouro, mas o que tenho, isto lhe dou. Em nome de Jesus Cristo, o Nazareno, ande”. 7 Segurando-o pela mão direita, ajudou-o a levantar-se, e imediatamente os pés e os tornozelos do homem ficaram firmes. 8 E de um salto pôs-se em pé e começou a andar. Depois entrou com eles no pátio do templo, andando, saltando e louvando a Deus. 9 Quando todo o povo o viu andando e louvando a Deus, 10 reconheceu que era ele o mesmo homem que costumava mendigar sentado à porta do templo chamada Formosa. Todos ficaram perplexos e muito admirados com o que lhe tinha acontecido. (Atos 3:1-10 NVI)“Tu és o Deus que realiza milagres; mostras o teu poder entre os povos.” (Salmos 77:14 NVI)“Ele realiza maravilhas insondáveis, milagres que não se pode contar.” (Jó 5:9 NVI)INTRODUÇÃO:Definição: Milagre é o "extra-ordinário" (fora do comum/normal); "sobre-natural" (acima do natural); "ex-cepcional" (especial/ exceção).Se milagre fosse algo corriqueiro e comum, então não seria milagre!“A palavra milagre refere-se ao marcante e surpreendente evento que acontece pela direta intervenção de Deus, sem seguir as conhecidas leis da natureza. Um milagre é a suspensão temporária de leis comuns da natureza e a intervenção de um poder sobrenatural.” – David Y. ChoSomente nos 4 evangelhos foram registrados 36 milagres realizados diretamente por Jesus Cristo.Na maioria das vezes: Milagre é a união da fé do indivíduo e a vontade de Deus.A Bíblia é o livro dos milagres: milagres no V.T. e milagres no N.T. E hoje?O dicionário Aurélio, explica que:“Qualquer manifestação da presença ativa de Deus na história humana, é milagre.”O cientista Albert Einstein disse:“Há duas maneiras de se viver a vida. Uma é como se nada fosse milagre. A outra é como se tudo fosse milagre”.A Bíblia é um milagre!O Alcorão veio de Maomé. O livro dos Mórmons veio de Joseph Smith. O evangelho segundo Alan Kardec, veio dele.Mas a Bíblia é única, dentre os muitos livros sagrados do mundo. Não foi escrita por uma só pessoa. Pelo contrário, o Velho e o Novo Testamento foram escritos por 40 autores diferentes, provenientes da Ásia, África e Europa. Foi escrita no deserto, no palácio, na cadeia, numa ilha, num espaço de tempo de 1600 anos.Para os judeus, todas as manifestações de Deus, na natureza e na história, eram para eles milagres, maravilhas (Sl 138,14; Jó 5,9).Fazer milagre é próprio de Deus!O que chamamos de sobrenatural é natural no Reino de Deus.E a Bíblia revela isto página a página.Por exemplo, no livro de Jó, lemos: “Deus faz coisas grandes e maravilhosas, e os seus milagres não têm fim.” (Jó 9:10 NTLH)Podemos crer que milagres é próprio de Deus. Mas, existe uma grande questão envolvendo os milagres: O que é necessário para recebermos um milagre de Deus?

Many of today's anti-trans sentiments revolve around the belief that things like gender-affirming care and nonbinary identities are part of a new trend. Yet, over a century ago, one doctor's revolutionary work around gender and sexuality suggests otherwise. Dr. Magnus Hirschfeld, a German-Jewish sexologist and activist, grew famous (and infamous) for his theory of sexual relativity. While he may be largely forgotten, journalist Daniel Brook wants to reintroduce Hirschfeld to today's discussion around gender and sexuality. Drawing from his book, The Einstein of Sex: Dr. Magnus Hirschfeld, Visionary of Weimar Berlin, Brook retraces Hirschfeld's life and legacy. Living in an era when gay sex was a crime and gender roles were rigid, Hirschfeld taught that each person has their own unique mixture of masculinity and femininity. He advocated for gay rights and counseled patients toward self-acceptance. He also became part of Berlin's cabaret scene and helped turn it into the world's queer capital. But this was also during the rise of Nazis. They ransacked his Institute for Sexual Science and burned his books, nearly erasing his work from history. Brook wants to bring him back into the next century. Brook argues that Hirschfeld's life, and his gift for thinking beyond the confines of his world, have much to teach us. While the same societal fights continue, Brook believes there may be something new to learn from the past. Daniel Brook is a journalist whose writing has appeared in Harper's Magazine, Nation, and New York Times Magazine, and he is the author of several books, including A History of Future Cities and The Accident of Color: A Story of Race in Reconstruction. A New York native and a Yale graduate, Brook lives in New Orleans. He researched The Einstein of Sex in Berlin on a Robert and Ina Caro Research/Travel Fellowship.

Baruch Spinoza (1632–1677), también conocido como Benedictus de Spinoza, fue un filósofo neerlandés de origen sefardí portugués, considerado uno de los pensadores más influyentes del siglo XVII y una figura clave en el surgimiento de la Ilustración y el racionalismo moderno. Spinoza nació en Ámsterdam en una familia judía que había huido de la Inquisición en Portugal. Recibió una educación religiosa tradicional, destacándose en los estudios del Talmud. Sin embargo, sus ideas filosóficas heterodoxas lo llevaron a ser excomulgado de la comunidad judía en 1656, a los 24 años, mediante un severo edicto de herem que nunca fue revocado. Tras su expulsión, Spinoza adoptó una vida modesta como pulidor de lentes, dedicando su tiempo al estudio y la escritura filosófica. Rechazó cátedras universitarias y vivió de forma independiente, manteniendo correspondencia con destacados intelectuales de su época. Ética demostrada según el orden geométrico (1677), Esta obra, publicada póstumamente, es su tratado más conocido. En ella, Spinoza aplica un método geométrico, similar al de Euclides, para desarrollar una visión sistemática de la realidad, la mente y la moralidad. Propone que Dios y la naturaleza son una misma sustancia infinita (monismo), y que todo lo que existe es una manifestación de esta única realidad. Tratado teológico-político (1670), Publicado anónimamente, este tratado defiende la libertad de pensamiento y expresión, argumentando que la teología y la filosofía deben mantenerse separadas. Critica la interpretación literal de las Escrituras y sostiene que los milagros pueden explicarse mediante leyes naturales. Además, aboga por un gobierno democrático que garantice la libertad individual. Principios de la filosofía de Descartes (1663), En esta obra, Spinoza presenta una exposición de la filosofía de René Descartes utilizando el método geométrico. Incluye también pensamientos metafísicos propios, mostrando tanto su admiración como sus críticas hacia el cartesianismo. Ideas filosóficas: Monismo: Sostiene que solo existe una sustancia, Dios o la naturaleza, y que todo lo que existe es una manifestación de esta única realidad. Determinismo: Cree que todo ocurre según leyes necesarias, negando el libre albedrío en el sentido tradicional. Ética racional: Propone que la virtud y la felicidad se alcanzan mediante el conocimiento racional de uno mismo y del universo. Crítica religiosa: Rechaza la idea de un Dios antropomórfico y los dogmas religiosos, promoviendo una comprensión naturalista de la religión. Las ideas de Spinoza influyeron profundamente en el pensamiento moderno, anticipando conceptos de la Ilustración y el secularismo. Filósofos como Hegel, Nietzsche y Einstein reconocieron su impacto. Su defensa de la libertad de pensamiento y su visión racional del mundo continúan siendo relevantes en debates contemporáneos sobre religión, política y ética. Crítica religiosa: Rechaza la idea de un Dios antropomórfico y los dogmas religiosos, promoviendo una comprensión naturalista de la religión.
Am 1. November 1935 beschrieben Albert Einstein und Nathan Rosen erstmals in ihrer Publikation das, was wir heute als Wurmlöcher kennen – hypothetische Tunnel, die ferne Punkte im Universum miteinander verbinden. In dieser Folge tauchen Tim & Max ein in die faszinierende Welt der Einstein-Rosen-Brücken: Wie entstehen solche Abkürzungen durch die Raumzeit, und was sagen uns neueste Theorien der Quantengravitation oder die Ergebnisse von Simulationen über ihre Stabilität? Wir öffnen das Portal für eine Folge über das gewagte Konzept, das unser Bild von Raum und Zeit für immer verändern könnte. Viel Spaß!

Show notes (Why We Sleep book summary) / Free Full Audiobook / PDF & Infographic / IN THIS EPISODE: Sleep is a complex, essential biological process that significantly impacts physical health, mental function, and emotional regulation, and understanding and prioritizing it can dramatically improve overall human well-being. Read 1 million books in minutes. For free. Visit getstoryshots.com to get started. TOPICS: sleep, Circadian rhythm, health, Dreams, mental health, Neuroscience KEY FIGURES: Pixar, National Institutes of Health, NBA, Atomic Habits, World Health Organization, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, Harvard Medical School, Why We Sleep, NFL, Matthew Walker, UC Berkeley, Deep Work, Einstein, StoryShots SUMMARY: Matthew Walker's book 'Why We Sleep' reveals a critical insight into the profound importance of sleep for human health, highlighting that most adults in developed nations fail to get the recommended eight hours of sleep. The book explains the complex biological mechanisms behind sleep, including the 24-hour circadian rhythm regulated by the suprachiasmatic nucleus and the buildup of adenosine that creates sleep pressure, demonstrating how these systems interact to govern our sleep-wake cycles. Walker emphasizes that sleep is not a passive state but a critical biological process with distinct stages-NREM and REM sleep-each serving unique functions for physical and mental restoration. During these stages, the body performs essential tasks like tissue repair, memory consolidation, emotional processing, and clearing toxic proteins from the brain. Sleep deprivation has severe consequences, including increased risks of chronic diseases like cancer, heart disease, and diabetes, as well as significant impairments in cognitive function, emotional regulation, and mental health. The book also explores how modern society has created a 'sleep loss epidemic' through factors like artificial lighting, technology, work schedules, and cultural attitudes that devalue sleep. Walker provides practical strategies for improving sleep quality, such as maintaining a consistent sleep schedule, creating a cool and dark sleeping environment, avoiding caffeine and alcohol before bedtime, and establishing a relaxing pre-sleep routine. By understanding and prioritizing sleep, individuals can dramatically improve their overall health, cognitive performance, and emotional well-being. KEY QUOTES: • "Sleeping less than six hours a night is a form of self-inflicted harm that damages every system in your body." - Matthew Walker • "Dreams are not the byproduct of sleep, but rather its purpose, nature's best attempt at emotional first aid." - Matthew Walker • "Our modern world is perfectly designed to disrupt sleep, creating the most sleep deprived era in human history." - Matthew Walker • "The amygdala, your brain's emotional center, becomes 60% more reactive without proper sleep, while the rational prefrontal cortex becomes less active." - Matthew Walker KEY TAKEAWAYS: • Sleep is essential for physical health, with chronic sleep deprivation dramatically increasing risks of serious conditions like cancer, heart disease, and diabetes • Sleep consists of different stages (NREM and REM), each serving unique functions for mental and physical restoration, including memory processing, emotional regulation, and tissue repair • Modern society has created a sleep loss epidemic through artificial lighting, technology, work schedules, and cultural attitudes that devalue sleep • Dreams during REM sleep are crucial for emotional processing, stress reduction, and enhancing creativity by forming unique connections between ideas • Sleep patterns naturally change throughout life stages, with significant variations in sleep needs and rhythms from infancy to old age • Lack of sleep impairs cognitive function, reducing concentration, memory, and decision-making abilities while increasing emotional reactivity...

In this heart-open, mind-stretching class, Rabbi Yisroel Bernath dives headfirst into one of the most profound questions ever asked: Who wrote the Torah and what do we mean by G-d? Sparked by a challenge from Ilana, a thoughtful soul who just "won the raffle" and then handed Rabbi Bernath some of the hardest theological questions he's faced, this class isn't a debate, it's a bridge. Drawing from Torah, Talmud, Rambam, Tanya, Harari, Einstein, Spinoza, and Chassidic mystics, we explore traditional belief, academic scholarship, and the honest soul-searching that sits between them.Is the Torah a divine blueprint or a human masterpiece? Or… could it be both?Together, we walk a path between Sinai and the seminar room, from ancient revelation to modern doubt and discover that sometimes, the questions themselves are the invitation to a deeper relationship with truth.Key Takeaways:Traditional Belief Holds Depth: Torah mi-Sinai means Moses recorded divine revelation over 40 years. It's not simplistic, it's layered and deeply rooted in Jewish collective memory.Modern Scholarship Brings Honest Challenges: Thinkers like Harari argue that the Torah was assembled over centuries, reflecting political and social needs. These critiques must be addressed, not ignored.Kabbalah and Chassidus Provide a Bridge: Divine revelation doesn't exclude human expression. The Torah flowed through Moses' voice and personality, G-d worked with human vessels.Assumptions Shape Interpretation: Believers and skeptics alike interpret the same data through different axioms. Acknowledging this fosters respectful dialogue rather than defensiveness.The Torah's Endurance Is Itself a Testament: Its moral vision, power to unite, and enduring relevance across time and culture hint at something more than human genius, it points toward the Divine.This Is Not About “Winning” an Argument: It's about honesty, humility, and the courage to explore big questions together.The Torah Is a Living Document: Beyond history or philosophy, Torah continues to speak—not just inform, but transform. That may be its greatest proof of all.#Torah #God #Judaism #sinai #Moses #Divinerevelation #Documentaryhypothesis #YuvalNoahHarari #Kabbalah #Jewishtradition #BiblicalCrticism #Tanya #Spinoza #chassidus #Faith #theology Support the showGot your own question for Rabbi Bernath?

Dinosauri ed esseri umani potrebbero avere convissuto? Ovviamente no, tutto quello che sappiamo dalla paleontologia alla genetica, dall'archeologia alla geologia ci dice che sono passati circa 66 milioni di anni tra l'ultimo dinosauro e il primo Homo Sapiens. Tuttavia, a Glen Rose, una cittadina del Texas, esiste un museo dove sono esposti reperti che, a detta di alcuni, contraddirebbero questo fatto. Per esempio? Un martello metallico inglobato in una roccia risalente al Cretaceo; Un'orma umana gigantesca impressa proprio a Glen Rose in uno strato roccioso formatosi milioni di anni prima che l'essere umano comparisse sulla Terra con l'aspetto e le dimensioni a noi note. Lo stesso strato roccioso conserva anche orme di dinosauri. E allora?

What if you could use your retirement savings to invest in real estate, start a business, or buy cryptocurrency - all while keeping the tax advantages of your IRA or 401(k)? Tax attorney and entrepreneur Adam Bergman reveals the hidden power of self-directed retirement accounts that most Americans are unaware of. As the founder and CEO of IRA Financial Group, Adam shares how he discovered, by accident, that IRAs can invest in far more than just stocks and bonds—and how he built a $5 billion company helping business owners unlock these opportunities. From the ROBS strategy for funding businesses with retirement funds to the surprising tax advantages that even seasoned professionals may not be aware of, this episode reveals the retirement planning secrets that savvy individuals use to build substantial wealth. 5 Key Takeaways ➤ IRAs can invest in almost anything except three prohibited categories - collectibles like art, life insurance, and transactions that personally benefit you or your family members. ➤ Three ways to fund your business with retirement money: Own less than 50% of the business through a self-directed IRA, borrow up to $50,000 through a 401(k) loan, or use the ROBS (Rollover Business Startup Solution) strategy. ➤ The ROBS strategy enables tax-free, penalty-free access to retirement funds by setting up a C-corporation that adopts a 401(k) plan, which then purchases company stock—completely legal under Section 4970E of the tax code. ➤ Starting retirement savings at 24 vs 34 makes a massive difference - investing just $2,000 annually from age 24-72 at 8.5% returns yields $1.15 million vs. only $498,000 when starting at 34. ➤ Self-directed IRAs cost less than $500 annually to maintain, and the setup process takes just a few hours over a few weeks, giving you complete control over investment decisions. Notable Quotes"I had no idea that you can use an IRA to do alternative assets. I as a tax lawyer... worked at some of the biggest law firms in the world, and I honestly thought that you had to buy stocks and mutual funds, ETFs with your IRA." "The US retirement system is rigged in our favor... it's based off compounded returns, the eighth wonder of the world. Albert Einstein said it."

Love him or hate him, many consider Elon Musk to be a modern-day genius. He co-founded PayPal, which transformed how people purchase things. He became the CEO of Tesla, which revolutionized electric vehicles—and made it cool to drive them. He founded SpaceX, accomplishing what only superpower nation-states have previously. And he is working to make our species interplanetary—maybe in a few years, we'll be doing this podcast on Mars. To many, these acts make Elon Musk a genius, perhaps the most important genius in history. But it's worth asking: What exactly makes him a genius? Is it a particular set of qualities, or is Elon Musk just particularly adept at playing the role of genius? Or at least what we've come to expect of geniuses? Is his offensive behavior excused by his genius, or the result of it? And why do human beings value genius, even to the point of deifying it? All of these questions are raised in Helen Lewis's new book, The Genius Myth. And not just with regard to Musk, but to so many of the figures our culture venerates as geniuses: Leonardo da Vinci, Galileo, William Shakespeare, Isaac Newton, Pablo Picasso, Albert Einstein, and Steve Jobs. Lewis asks: Were these people actually geniuses? Or was their genius based on a myth? And more importantly, how does our perception of “genius” confuse and distort our understanding of success—and how we value, or don't value, other human beings? Today on Honestly, Bari asks Helen Lewis if some people belong to a special and superior class, what it means to be a genius, and if she believes in geniuses at all.

Through her work transitioning from women's fitness to transformational coaching, Danita Young uncovered a powerful truth: when we operate from a contracted energetic state—characterized by limiting beliefs, fear, and generational trauma—we create outcomes that mirror that contraction. The solution isn't just positive thinking or temporary coping mechanisms, but bringing our limiting beliefs to truth and expanding our energetic frequency.• Finding your voice is the first step to building confidence• Difficult challenges can lead to profound growth• Seasons of life remind us that constant action isn't sustainable• The Align Method developed accidentally through Danita's personal healing journey• Einstein's quote: "We are all energy - match the frequency of the reality you want"• Only 8% of people are willing to change; 92% stay stuck in familiar patterns• Make decisions from an expanded state, never from contractionIf you're interested in experiencing the Align Method, Danita offers a free 20-minute assessment to help you understand your current energetic state.

Biografia e scoperte del fisico tedesco Albert Einstein che formulò la teoria della relatività e vinse il premio Nobel per la Fisica nel 1921.
In this thought-provoking Q&A episode of Space Nuts, hosts Heidi Campo and Professor Fred Watson tackle a variety of intriguing listener questions that delve into the realms of astrophysics and the possibilities of life beyond Earth. From the complexities of time dilation to the potential for extraterrestrial communication, this episode is a treasure trove of cosmic knowledge.Episode Highlights:- Time Dilation and Space Travel: The episode kicks off with a fascinating question from listener Peter about the implications of time dilation as depicted in Queen's song "39." Fred explains the calculations needed to understand how a journey at 99.995% the speed of light could allow travelers to experience just one year while 100 years pass on Earth, revealing the mind-bending effects of Einstein's theory of relativity.- Observing Gravitational Waves: Trent from North Georgia poses a compelling question about how observatories can detect light from events that have already emitted gravitational waves. Fred clarifies the relationship between different types of radiation and their detection, using gamma-ray bursts as a prime example of how various signals can provide insight into cosmic events.- Limits of Biological Detection: Listener Chris wonders why organisms on Earth can only sense a limited part of the electromagnetic spectrum. Fred discusses the potential for extraterrestrial life to communicate using different frequencies, exploring the limits of biology and the intriguing possibilities of non-verbal communication in the cosmos.- Earth-Sized Moons Around Gas Giants: Martin raises an interesting question about the possibility of Earth-sized moons orbiting gas giants in other solar systems. Fred elaborates on the feasibility of such moons and their potential to harbor life, while also considering the dynamic challenges posed by their environments.For more Space Nuts, including our continuously updating newsfeed and to listen to all our episodes, visit our website.

Tonight's guest comes to us from Athens, Greece. In this firsthand account, Greek radio operator Polo Spentzos recounts an extraordinary encounter in the heart of the Bermuda Triangle. Aboard the merchant vessel M/V Pothiti in the autumn of 1978, Spentzos and his crew witnessed a large glowing cloud-wrapped object and two smaller orbs hovering above the Atlantic, followed by an even stranger phenomenon where time itself began to unravel. Mechanical clocks spun out of control, quartz watches lagged, communication systems failed, and the crew's bodies slowed as if trapped in a gravitational field. In this rare and deeply technical testimony, Spentzos links his experience not to fantasy but to Einstein's relativity and the infamous Twin Paradox, while drawing parallels to other disappearances, such as that of pilot Frederick Valentich. Because Polo's first language is Greek, his testimony has been translated and voiced in English for clarity and accessibility. This is not a story of lights in the sky, but a case of measurable and documented time distortion aboard a real ship, told by the man who lived it.More information on this episode on the podcast website:https://ufochroniclespodcast.com/ep-341-the-m-v-pothiti-incident/Hidden Cults (Promo)It is a documentary-style podcast that digs deep into the world's most extreme, elusive, and explosive fringe groups.

Sunday, 6 July 2025 For John came neither eating nor drinking, and they say, ‘He has a demon.' Matthew 11:18 “For, he came, John, neither eating, neither drinking, and they say he has a demon!” (CG). In the previous verse, Jesus gave an example of what “this generation” is like, saying, “We piped to you and not you danced. We bewailed to you and not you breast-beat.” He continues now with, “For, he came, John, neither eating, neither drinking.” The meaning here is more than just his limited diet, which is recorded in Matthew 3:4 – “And he, John, had his apparel from camel's hair, and a leathery girdle around his waist, and his food was locusts and wild honey.” The thought of eating and drinking extends to social life, where eating and drinking are a part of the natural course of human interaction. In other words, John's life was that of a prophet preparing the way for the Lord. He did this in the wilderness, living a life of austerity and isolation. In this state, someone may have come and said, “I'd like to talk to you about your message, come and join us at our meal tonight.” This is something John would have likely refused, maybe offering them a bowl of dried locusts instead and saying, “Join me here for a meal. This is where I belong.” John limited his diet and everything that goes along with eating. Parties, feasts, dinner invitations, etc., would all have been shunned by him. Therefore, because of this obscure and difficult to understand lifestyle, Jesus next says, “and they say he has a demon!” This is what it says about the demoniacs in Chapter 8 – “And He, having come into the beyond, into the country of the Gergesenes, two ‘being demon possessed,' they met Him, coming out from the tombs – exceedingly dangerous – so too, not anyone capacitate to pass through that way.” Matthew 8:28 They lived in an area shunned by others, cut off from the normal ways of life. Because John was somewhat like this, instead of recognizing him as a prophet and grasping the importance of his ministry, they accused him of having a demon. Life application: One of the traits that is often seen in people who are exceptional in their field is eccentricity, even to the point of being thought to suffer from mental instability. People with great intellects who have made some of the most profound discoveries in their occupations have been considered unconventional, and their lives troubled. Van Gogh, da Vinci, Nietzsche, Hemingway, Tesla, Mozart, Bonaparte, Byron, Freud, Einstein, and so many others were, at times, close to being off their rocker. Van Gogh cut off his own ear, something not normally thought of as a sign of sharp mental acuity. Fortunately for them, their skills in their professions were recognized and they were appreciated, despite their often-bizarre behavior. If you come across someone who seems a tad eccentric or doesn't fit into the traditional paradigm that society has set, don't underestimate him or dismiss him outright. It may be that his focus is so poignantly directed that the normal rules for social behavior don't interest him. At the same time, he may be as crazy as a loon, so don't just assume that everyone who is odd is a genius. Lord God, may our judgments about those we encounter always be carefully considered. First and foremost, may we look at each person as an individual who needs Jesus. If we remember this, surely we will see them in a different way than if we judge by mere appearances. Help us to look for Your image in those we encounter. Amen.

Welcome to the What's Next! podcast with Tiffani Bova. This week, I'm reflecting on a conversation I had with Diane Hamilton. Diane is a nationally syndicated radio host, award-winning speaker, author, and educator. She is the MBA Program Chair at the Forbes School of Business and has a Ph.D. in Business Management. She is the creator of the Curiosity Code Index and the author of 4 books. THIS EPISODE IS PERFECT FOR…if you have the desire to increase your desire to learn and become more curious in both your personal and professional lives, this episode is for you. TODAY'S MAIN MESSAGE…how do we measure the “soft stuff?” How do we encourage, reward, and quantify the benefits of curiosity? Why is it that innovators throughout history–Einstein, Edison, Jobs–point to their curiosity as their most important contribution? Are you getting curious yet? In today's episode, Dr. Diane Hamilton helps us answer these questions and explains why it is so vital that we stoke the flames of our own curiosity. She also shares with us her groundbreaking research and what exactly the F.A.T.E. of curiosity can tell us. WHAT I LOVE MOST…I was fascinated by this whole concept of curiosity and how we can become more curious as leaders, as contributors, and as innovators. The soft stuff is so important to our success, not only as a company but for the people we lead and manage as well.

Summer's here and I'm excited to help you make this your healthiest one yet! In this episode, I'm tackling the biggest mistake people make with their summer fitness plans – and it's probably not what you think.The main problem? Most of us sabotage our hard-earned fitness progress by abandoning our workout routines the moment summer activities ramp up. We think all that extra gardening and outdoor fun will replace our strength training, but here's the truth: it doesn't work that way.As you listen to this episode, you'll discover the answers to these key questions:✅ Why do people struggle to get back into their workout routine every fall?✅ What's the difference between general activity and strength training for your health?✅ How can longer daylight hours actually improve your sleep quality?✅ How do you maintain healthy habits when your schedule gets crazy?✅ What are the foundational areas to focus on for your healthiest summer?Plus, I'm sharing Einstein's time hack that will help you actually experience summer instead of wondering where it went come September. This simple mindset shift could change how you approach not just summer, but any season you want to savor.Chapters:01:24 Summer Fitness Tips Overview06:24 Focus Area 1: Move11:25 Focus Area 2: Sleep15:13 Focus Area 3: Think17:30 Gift for a Mindful SummerIf you're enjoying the Begin Within Health Show, please consider subscribing/following and leaving a 5-star review!

Einstein Was Right – Try The Sane Alternative to a Ceasefire in Gaza! Albert Einstein famously said, “The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.” Compelling Israel once again to pull back from a decisive victory in Gaza seems to fit that description. President Trump will host Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu next week and is expected to press his guest to accept a 60-day ceasefire with Hamas. The predictable result would be to give Hamas what their patrons – the Iranian mullahs – got from the last one in Iran: namely, a new lease on life. Compelling the Israelis to withdraw from parts of Gaza and deliver humanitarian aid to Hamas simply means the war there will resume in due course – and under circumstances significantly less favorable to both the Israelis and us. The time has come to try the sane alternative: Let Israel finish the job. This is Frank Gaffney
Send us a textHave you ever beaten yourself up for procrastinating, assuming it meant you were lazy or unmotivated? That you should do more?What if your scrolling, fridge-checking, or mental fog is not a flaw — but a wise signal from your nervous system asking for safety?In this validating episode, Dr. Amen Kaur reframes procrastination as a freeze response — not failure. Drawing on trauma science, nervous system healing, and feminine-coded success psychology, she explores how the brain's amygdala, cortisol response, and prefrontal cortex interplay when fear of failure or rejection is triggered.✨ Inspired by the work of Bessel van der Kolk and others, you'll discover how trauma lives in the body and why procrastination often protects you from unseen emotional threat.You'll also explore:Why moderate “delays” enhance creativity (Einstein & Beatles style)How dopamine and incubation can restore motivation3 powerful strategies to shift from freeze to flow (without shame)You are not lazy. You are intelligent. And your body is doing its best to keep you safe while you grow.

"I'm not in charge… & it's a really nice feeling.” – David Amigo Most entrepreneurs chase control. David finds peace in letting go. Because when you've been a factory scab at 11, a product manager slinging cookies in your 20s, & a minority owner pushed out of your own family's business — you learn fast: control is an illusion. What isn't? Character. Integrity. Showing up. Doing the next right thing, even when the plan falls apart. That's where purpose is forged — not in the wins, but in the wreckage. When you dust off, serve others, & keep building anyway. That mindset built his landscaping business, G & G Landscaping, one of the most respected in the Carolinas, where ego gets weeded out & excellence takes root. There, he's not CEO. He's CEB: Chief Errand Boy. Clearing the path. Serving first. Doing what needs doing. Because for David, leadership isn't about being out front — it's about being all in. For the builders, the rebuilders, & the ones who never quite fit the mold, this episode's your mirror. Connect at GANDGlandscape.net David took Albert Einstein's charge to heart: “Try not to become a man of success but rather try to become a man of value.” That's some great wisdom!
What if everything we know about the universe's expansion is wrong? David Wiltshire offers a radical perspective on cosmic acceleration and dark energy, proposing that both might be illusions created by the varying passage of time in different regions of the universe. Wiltshire challenges the foundations of modern cosmology with his innovative Timescape model. We discuss the foundations of Einstein's theory of relativity, examining how time behaves differently in regions of high and low matter density. Wiltshire explains how this could alter our understanding of the universe's expansion, potentially eliminating the need for dark energy altogether. His work revisits Mark's Principle and its influence on cosmology, offering an alternative explanation for cosmic phenomena. This episode will captivate anyone interested in the future of cosmological theory, the mystery of dark energy, and the complex nature of time.

“Every morning in SEAL training, my instructors, who at the time were all Vietnam veterans, would show up in my barracks room and the first thing they'd do is inspect my bed. If you did it right, the corners would be square, the covers would be pulled tight, the pillow centred just under the headboard, and the extra blanket folded neatly at the foot of the rack. It was a simple task, mundane at best. But every morning we were required to make our bed to perfection. It seemed a little ridiculous at the time, particularly in light of the fact that we were aspiring to be real warriors. Tough, battle hardened SEALs. But the wisdom of this simple act has been proven to me many times over. If you make your bed every morning, you will have accomplished the first task of the day. It will give you a small sense of pride and it will encourage you to do another task and another, and another. And by the end of the day, that one task completed will have turned into many tasks completed. Making your bed will also reinforce the fact that the little things in life matter. If you can't do the little things right, you'll never be able to do the big things right. And if by chance you have a miserable day, you will come home to a bed that is made that you made. And a made bed gives you encouragement that tomorrow will be better.” That is an excerpt from Admiral McRaven's Commencement Address at Texas University in 2014. And it's the heart of this week's episode. Simple, mundane tasks that carry far more weight than you may think.

A podcast to answer all your questions about productivity, time management, self-development, and goal planning. My name is Carl Pullein, and I am your host of this show. If you were to read the comments on any productivity or time management YouTube video, you'll find many well-meaning commentators talking about this app, or that new method or hack to play with. The truth is few of them will work and most involve adding more and more layers of complexity which only stops you from doing the work that matters. Real improvements in your time management and productivity comes from the boring and mundane. It's the sitting down to respond to your emails and messages every day. It's taking the laundry to the washing machine and hanging it up after it's been washed. And yes, it's making your bed each morning before you leave to take your kids to school. Doing the simple, basic tasks each day whether you're in the mood or not, is the secret to massively improved outcomes. It means when you get home after a particularly stressful day, everything is calm, peaceful and ready for you to relax get some rest. It's how you avoid getting home, stressed out and exhausted only to find your breakfast things are still on your dining table, your bed's unmade and your laundry basket is overflowing with clothes that are beginning to give off a rather unpleasant odour. And, yes, it means giving yourself five to ten minutes each day to map out your day. To see where your appointments are and what tasks you must get done. None of this is complicated. It's basic, it's almost laughably unimportant, yet it isn't. These are the critical things each day that ensure you remain on top of everything and know what needs to be done, where you should be and when and leaves you feeling calm, serene even, and ready for the next day. And with all that said, it's time for me to hand you over to the Mystery Podcast Voice for this week's question. This week's question comes from Charlie. Charlie asks, hi Carl, over the last twelve months, I feel everything has spiralled out of control. I get home exhausted and just never seem able to catch up. My Task list is out of control and my calendar seems to fill up with random meetings each day. What can I do to get some control back into my life? Hi Charlie, thank you for your question. This is something that can happen from time to time. Things spiralling out of control. It's often because we say “yes” a little too freely, or we stop following some basic principles. The basic principles of better time management and productivity are planning your days and week. Not in a micro-management way, but more in a what's happening tomorrow or this week way. It's also understanding that in most cases you can cancel or reschedule a meeting. I've often looked at my diary for tomorrow and seen I was over scheduled and realised I needed to postpone some meetings or rearrange some of the things I had planned to do. It's never the end of the world if you have to reschedule. It's just a part of life. For example, if you're scheduled to pick your kids up from school but realise that if you do you'll not be able to finish the proposal that must go out today, you could ask your partner or parents to help you out today. It's only today. Or, you may decide to ask to be excused from a team meeting so you can finish the proposal. We always have options. Yet, if you want more options, plan the day the evening before and you will see any potential conflicts with plenty of time to explore all options. If you don't plan your day, it's likely you will see the problem you have a couple of hours before you have to pick your kids up. You're not leaving yourself with much time to sort out the conflict. It's the same reason why weekly planning is critical. The weekly planning session gives you the “big picture” view of your week. It your chance to see any potential issues well before they become crises. This is the number one reason you will find you feel behind, rushed and overwhelmed. You're not giving yourself a moment to pause to look ahead for potential storms so you can plot an alternative route through. To start getting back in control, do a weekly plan for next week. Open you calendar and first look for any conflicts—these are where you have inadvertently double booked yourself. You cannot be in two places at once, so pick one. Next, open your task manager. This is probably where the bigger problems lay. When we lose control we start throwing all sorts into our tasks managers. It's easy to put stuff there. If your sense of control has completely gone, it's possible you may have stopped looking at your task manager altogether. If that's the case, open it. Now you have a choice. You could declare task management bankruptcy and delete everything. Don't worry, if something's genuinely important, you'll be reminded of it somewhere. You can then add it back later. The second choice is to go through everything in your task manager one by one. Delete what's no longer relevant, update what is by making sure the task is written in an actionable way. In other words you have an actionable verb in the task so it's clear what you need to do. Then for anything in your inbox, ask the three processing questions: What is it? What do I need to do? When will I do it. Then, organise your tasks by stuff you will do this week, next week, next month. Once done, go back to your this week list and, with your calendar open, put the day you will do the tasks next week. Now be smart here. If you have six hours of meetings on Wednesday, avoid putting tasks on that day. You won't have time. Not when you remember you will need to spend some time on your email and messages and any other matters that will inevitably pop up once the week gets going. Anything not in your this week list can be left undated. Hopefully, many of those will sort themselves out. If they don't, you can look at them again when you do you next weekly planning session and decide if they need to be brought forward into the following week. Just doing these basic weekly planning steps, you'll instantly give yourself a sense of control. Yet, this is only as good as your ability to say no. You cannot be in two places at once, and you're not going to be able to complete sixty tasks and attend seven hours of meetings in one day. If that's what your day looks like stop. You're going to have to say no to something and the sooner you do this the easier it is to do it. The consequences of not doing these planning sessions are missed deadlines, over booked calendars and a lot of late nights and weekends spent catching up, feeling stressed and blaming your company. The blame game solves nothing unless you're willing to say “no. This has go to stop”. If you're not willing to do that, don't complain. A bit harsh, I know, but you always have a choice remember. More basics are giving yourself time each day for your messages and emails. I'm always surprised how unwilling people are to protect time for dealing with these. 99% of the time it's out of control email, Slack and Teams inboxes that people are most stressed about. And I know, if you don't spend sometime on your communications daily, they will backlog quickly. And when I say quickly I mean it. One day missed will mean you will need double the time tomorrow. And that keeps increasing until you decide to spend a whole day clearing up your email. If you want to avoid spending days clearing your email inbox, protect time every day for dealing with it. That has to be a non-negotiable. I believe it was Einstein who said insanity is doing the same thing over and over again expecting different results. Well unless you protect time for managing your communications each day, you'll be spending days clearing your inbox every month. Nothing will change unless you are prepared to change the way you schedule your day. So there you go, Charlie. The important basics of getting back control and staying in control, is daily and weekly planning and protecting daily time for dealing with communications. Do that, and you'll soon find yourself regaining control. I know it sounds simple, perhaps too simple but it goes back to what Admiral McCraven said in his commencement address, “if you want to change the world, begin by making your bed.” Thank you for your question, Charlie, and thank you to you too for listening. Oh, and just a quick update, this podcast will be on holiday for a couple of weeks. We'll be back in a couple of weeks. It just remains for me to wish you all a very very productive week.
