First episode in separate studios! Went well, and we had a fun discussion about the recent JRE Eric Weinstein episode, with the possibility that the science of Physics has been stalled, or purposefully distracted, by the beautiful but seemingly useless mathematics of String Theory. Is it possible that "real physics" simply went "black"...that work is being done in secret that is actually making progress in unlocking the secrets of the universe?   You can support us through Paypal or Patreon by heading over to our support page on our website: https://www.brothersoftheserpent.com/support   Chapters 00:00 Welcome to the Brothers of the Serpent Podcast 07:09 Space Weather Insights 09:55 The State of Modern Physics 22:26 The Intersection of Physics and the Supernatural 34:39 Mysterious Disappearances of Scientists 48:21 Speculation on Missing Persons Cases 51:52 Skepticism and Conspiracy Theories 54:50 Exploring Advanced Physics and UAPs 01:01:06 Theoretical Physics and Its Limitations 01:07:03 Consciousness and Noetic Sciences 01:14:21 Assumptions in Modern Science 01:18:21 The Nature of Gravity and Dark Matter 01:32:43 The Secrets of Advanced Technology 01:41:50 Space Exploration and Hidden Agendas 01:50:02 The Great Pyramid: A Survival Guide? 02:07:14 The Impact of Language on Memory and Cognition

What if the goal isn't fitting in?What if the goal is belonging?In this Sound Bite, I reflect on a question that emerged from my conversation with Teresa Gregory in Episode 296:What's the difference between fitting in and belonging?Drawing on the work of Brené Brown and Teresa's insights about "fit" in organizations, I explore how many of us spend years learning how to adapt, blend in, and gain acceptance—often at the expense of our own voice.But leadership rarely begins with conformity.It begins with the courage to bring our perspective into the room.Even when it's different.Even when we're the only one.In this reflection, I explore:✨ The difference between fitting in and belonging✨ Why belonging doesn't require us to change who we are✨ The connection between diversity of thought and innovation✨ The courage required to be the different voice in the room✨ How leadership often begins when we're willing to stop editing ourselvesReflection QuestionWhere in your life are you trying to fit in when you may already belong?Inspired ByEpisode 296:Hidden Mindsets: The Labels, Assumptions, and "Fit" with Teresa GregoryTeresa's conversation about hiring for "fit" and the value of different perspectives inspired this deeper reflection on belonging, authenticity, and leadership.Mentioned in This Episode

In this episode of the Awesome Marriage Podcast, Dr. Kim sits down with bestselling author Gary Chapman for a practical and honest conversation about what it really looks like to keep a marriage growing, not just surviving. They talk about why marriages don't just "stay the same," how couples slowly drift without realizing it, and what it takes to stay emotionally connected over time. Gary unpacks how love languages can shift through different seasons of life, why assumptions create so many problems, and how simple things like curiosity, communication, and daily check-ins can completely change the tone of a relationship. If you've ever felt like you and your spouse are just "off" lately, or you want to be more intentional about loving well, this conversation gives you real, doable ways to start moving back toward each other again.   Episode Highlights: Without intentional effort, connection naturally fades into distance or "roommate mode."  Couples often miss each other because they're expressing love in ways that feel right to them, not in ways that actually land with their spouse.  When couples stay teachable and intentional, even conflict becomes an opportunity for deeper connection.    Quotes from this Episode: Gary Chapman: "Marriage is either going to grow or regress—there's really no drifting in place." "I don't talk about a perfect marriage. I talk about a growing marriage." "Life satisfaction is found in relationships, not in the accumulation of things." "We cannot read each other's minds—you have to ask questions and listen." "The objective is not to win the argument—the objective is to find a solution together." "It's no fun to live with a loser. Why would you create a loser? You're on the same team." "Love has to be communicated in a way that's meaningful to the other person."     Kim Kimberling: "I don't think I'll ever learn everything there is to know about Nancy in a lifetime." "Marriage is an adventure because you're always discovering new things about each other." "If you're not feeling loved, turn into your marriage—not outside of it." "Assumptions in marriage are usually way off." "The distractions we entertain today are often stealing the connection we could be building at home." "There's so much value in the person God put in front of you to do life with." "Small, intentional steps done consistently really do make a difference over time." Time to Talk About it: Where in our marriage are we currently growing—and where might we actually be drifting without realizing it? In what ways am I trying to show love to my spouse, and are those actually the ways they most feel loved? How well do we really ask questions and stay curious about each other instead of assuming we already know what the other thinks or feels? What would it look like for us to build a simple daily rhythm of connection (even 10–15 minutes) to stay emotionally close? Mentioned in This Episode: Awesome Marriage is on Instagram!

WELCOME BACK TO ANOTHER EPISODE OF MAN VS MARRIAGE!There is a silent sabotage going on in your life. It lurks in frustration and disappointment. It plays on your fears, creates suspicion, makes you jump to conclusions, and steals your inner peace.I call it Quiet Dialogue — the “here we go again” voice. The trap of “always” and “never.”For too long I read my wife's mind, assumed the worst, and let this inner story drive blame instead of ownership. It wasn't just with her — anyone who disappointed me became part of that voice, and it was holding me back.In this live episode of the Legacy Roadmap series, we break down how to catch it, pause, take personal responsibility, and replace it so it builds peace and resilience instead of sabotage.Key TakeawaysGuard your quiet dialogue — it either fuels blame or builds peace and resilienceBreak the “always and never” trapPause, review your choices, and take personal responsibilityReplace negative inner stories with truth and gratitudeCall to Action This week catch your quiet dialogue 3 times.

What if the biggest factor influencing your leadership isn't what you know—but what you don't realize is influencing you?In this episode, Executive Leadership Strategist, Keynote Speaker, and Executive Coach Teresa Gregory joins us to explore what she calls our hidden mindsets—the labels, assumptions, and unconscious thinking patterns that shape how we lead, communicate, evaluate others, and even see ourselves.Drawing on more than 20 years of leadership development experience, Teresa shares practical examples of how hidden mindsets show up in hiring decisions, performance reviews, workplace relationships, and the stories we tell ourselves about what we're capable of achieving.In This EpisodeTogether, we explore why "fit" can sometimes limit innovation, how labels become self-fulfilling, and what leaders can do to recognize and shift the thinking patterns that may be influencing their decisions without them even knowing it.Memorable Takeaways✨ Why Teresa prefers the term hidden mindset over bias✨ How our brains create shortcuts that influence decision-making✨ The role assumptions play in hiring and leadership decisions✨ Why "fit" can become a barrier to diversity, innovation, and growth✨ How hidden mindsets show up in performance evaluations✨ Why imposter syndrome is often a hidden mindset in disguise✨ The difference between intention and impact✨ How dialogue creates stronger relationships than discussion✨ Practical ways to identify and challenge limiting beliefs✨ Why every leader should have a mentor—and be a mentor

This week on ShrinkChicks, Em and Jen talk about how assumptions can quietly keep us stuck in relationships, work, and everyday life. From assuming people are upset with us to deciding how conversations will go before they happen, they unpack why our brains fill in the blanks and how those patterns often start as protection.They answer listener questions about mind reading, assuming a partner doesn't want connection, putting off hard conversations with friends, worrying your boss is disappointed in you, and feeling like asking for help makes you a burden. They also get into confirmation bias, cognitive distortions, and why the stories we tell ourselves can feel safer than finding out what's actually true.Tune in to gain insight, awareness, and action!

In this session from DX Annual, Eleanor Millman, Senior Staff Product Manager, and Mina Tawadrous, Associate Director of Product Management at SiriusXM, share how their platform engineering organization developed a prioritization framework for platform engineering teams serving hundreds of developers across a complex cloud platform.They explain how they define and weight platform-specific impact factors, use developer data to refine priorities, and score projects more consistently. They also explore why prioritization debates often stem from conflicting, invisible, or outdated assumptions, and how SiriusXM began treating assumptions like code by documenting, versioning, and reviewing them in source control.Finally, they demonstrate how AI can surface assumptions, connect initiatives to existing knowledge, and support project scoring while keeping humans in the loop. Throughout the session, they offer a practical framework for making prioritization decisions more transparent, data-driven, and scalable.

In Episode 199, the fourth installment of our series, Phil and Paul continue Season 14's focus on The People Advantageby tackling one of the most overlooked realities of leadership and communication: Communication is not measured by what you say. It's measured by what people hear, absorb, and act upon. Building on the DISC foundation from previous episodes, they explore why even well-intentioned leaders often create communication gaps—and how understanding the personalities, motivations, and communication styles of the people around us can dramatically improve connection, trust, and performance. Whether you're coaching a team, leading an organization, raising children, or building a marriage, this episode challenges leaders to move beyond simply talking to people and learn how to truly communicate with them. Specifically, they discuss: · It's Not What You Say—It's What They Hear · Communication is measured by understanding, not delivery · Great leaders focus on absorption, not just expression · Talking To People vs. Talking With People · Many leaders unintentionally communicate from their own perspective only · Real communication requires understanding the listener · The Communication Gap · What leaves your mouth is not always what enters someone else's mind · Assumptions create misunderstandings and disengagement · The Red Auerbach Principle · "It's not what you say—it's what they absorb." · Effective leaders focus on how their message is received · Understanding Your Players, Employees, and Family Members · People process information differently · Communication must be adapted to the individual · The Parenting Parallel · Every child is wired differently · The same message often requires a different delivery · The Danger of One-Size-Fits-All Leadership · What motivates one person may discourage another · Great leaders adjust their tone, pace, and approach · A Recent Example from March Madness · Hard coaching can inspire one athlete and shut down another · Context, relationship, and personality matter · Listening as a Leadership Skill · You can learn a great deal about people by listening to how they communicate · Understanding others begins with paying attention · Learning the Language of Your Team · DISC helps leaders identify communication preferences · Better communication creates stronger trust and healthier cultures · Practice Makes Better · No leader communicates perfectly · Intentional practice leads to stronger relationships and better results If this episode helps you, share it with at least one other person (coach, parent, business leader, spouse, teacher, or player) who would benefit from becoming a more effective communicator. You can also connect with Phil through Darke Leadership Group to learn how DISC training, interaction guides, and team alignment tools can help your team communicate more effectively and perform at a higher level.

Just days after Thanksgiving in 2018, 29-year-old Kelsey Berreth seemingly vanished without a trace from her Colorado home. At first, her family tried convincing themselves there had to be a reasonable explanation. But as the days passed with no calls, no texts, and no sign of Kelsey, panic started setting in. Inside her condo, everything looked as though she had simply stepped out for a moment and never came back. Her belongings were still there, unfinished food sat untouched, and small details inside the apartment began making investigators increasingly uneasy. Meanwhile, the one person who should have been most desperate to find her, Kelsey's fiancé and the father of her child, appeared strangely calm….If you're new here, don't forget to follow the show for weekly deep dives into the darkest true crime cases!

In this episode of the Culture Eats Everything podcast, Tom Willis sits down with Dr. Stephen Bigelow, an experienced educator and former superintendent who traded Michigan's Upper Peninsula for life and leadership in Salvador, Brazil. Together, they explore the concept of “cultures within cultures” and discuss how living and leading in a completely different environment challenged Stephen's assumptions about healthcare, education, relationships, and leadership itself.Stephen shares how confronting his own preconceived notions opened the door to deeper learning, stronger relationships, and a greater appreciation for cultural differences. The conversation highlights the importance of humility, adaptability, and surrounding yourself with people who challenge your thinking. They also discuss how leadership principles remain universal even when cultural norms, communication styles, and expectations vary dramatically.Click here to buy our book:

Since her sentence to prison for the crash that killed her boyfriend and his friend, Mackenzie Shirilla has largely remained out of the public eye. Netflix's Crash recently introduced the case to a whole new audience, but many of these conversations were never featured in the documentary.

Thom and Jess challenge five assumptions that quietly shape how churches approach evangelism. These beliefs often go unspoken, but they influence priorities and outcomes more than leaders realize. The post Five False Assumptions about Evangelism in Churches Today appeared first on Church Answers.

We all want retirement success. But how do we achieve it? What if the best method is to identify possible *failures* first, and then simply work backward to avoid those failures?  Looking for a financial planner?  → PlanWithJesse.com In this follow-up episode, Jesse completes his inversion-based framework for retirement planning by outlining the remaining risks that can derail long-term financial outcomes, shifting from market and inflation concerns to more personal, behavioral, and systemic threats. He begins with shock spending and long-term care risk, emphasizing the scale and unpredictability of end-of-life care costs and arguing that insurance alone is often insufficient, making realistic cash flow modeling and programs like Medicaid more practical planning tools. He then covers cognitive decline risk, highlighting how reduced decision-making capacity can lead to fraud, mismanagement, and financial error, and recommends safeguards such as legal protections, trusted contacts, and automated, simplified financial systems. Behavioral risk is framed as the danger of emotional decision-making, with mitigation strategies including automation, written investment policies, and reduced exposure to market volatility. Jesse then addresses assumptions risk, warning that small inaccuracies in assumptions about markets, inflation, taxes, or even one's future self can compound significantly in retirement projections, advocating for base rates and disciplined "what-if" analysis. He explores policy, legislation, and tax risk as an unavoidable layer of uncertainty around Social Security, taxation, and healthcare policy, suggesting retirees stress test outcomes without overreacting to speculation. Identity and purpose risk follows, underscoring that retirement success depends heavily on structure, meaning, and social connection, not just financial security. Finally, he introduces "deep risks"—deflation, confiscation, and devastation—arguing that while rare, these systemic threats reinforce the central conclusion that no portfolio design eliminates all risks, and effective retirement planning ultimately comes down to balancing trade-offs and building resilience. Key Takeaways: • Shock spending risk includes large, unexpected expenses that can destabilize retirement plans. • Long-term care is one of the most significant and unpredictable retirement costs. • Cognitive decline can lead to financial mistakes, fraud vulnerability, and poor decision-making. • Behavioral risk stems from emotional and irrational financial decisions. • Assumptions risk arises from unrealistic expectations about markets, inflation, or personal behavior. • Policy and tax risk includes uncertainty around Social Security, taxes, and healthcare programs. • Identity and purpose risk highlights the psychological challenges of retirement. • Deep risks (deflation, confiscation, devastation) are rare but potentially catastrophic. • No single strategy can eliminate all risks—retirement planning is about balancing trade-offs and building resilience.

The deadliest disaster in aviation history was not caused by a mechanical failure… or even by the fog alone.In 1977, two Boeing 747s collided on a runway at Los Rodeos Airport in Tenerife, killing 583 people. But the real story is far more unsettling. Visibility collapsed. Communication degraded. Assumptions survived. And piece by piece, an entire system drifted out of synchronization.This episode examines how trained professionals, working inside a crowded and increasingly uncertain environment, slowly lost the same understanding of what was happening around them.Not just a disaster story. A lesson in how clarity quietly disappears.If you enjoy thoughtful disaster analysis, hidden systems failures, aviation history, and stories that outsmart the obvious, subscribe and join us.#Tenerife #AviationHistory #PlaneCrash #DisasterDocumentary #AnOunceCHAPTERS / TIMELINE00:00 — The Bomb That Started Everything 02:08 — Diversion to Tenerife 02:28 — An Airport Beyond Its Limits 04:31 — Fog and Fragmented Awareness 06:41 — Pressure Inside the Cockpit 08:16 — Assumptions Begin Taking Over 09:57 — Radio Confusion in the Fog 11:47 — “Is He Not Clear, Then?” 13:17 — Collision on the Runway 14:52 — The Lessons Written in Blood 16:47 — Not Just Fog 18:28 — An OunceCOMPANION EPISODE RECOMMENDATIONThe Attack That Wasn't | When the System Was Wrong https://youtu.be/tyhanM96jAYWhy: Both episodes examine:systems degradation incomplete information dangerous assumptions professionals operating inside uncertainty catastrophic risk emerging from fragmented awareness TAGSTenerife disaster, Tenerife airport disaster, deadliest aviation disaster, aviation history, plane crash documentary, KLM 4805, Pan Am 1736, Tenerife runway collision, aviation disaster analysis, aircraft collision, aviation documentary, disaster documentary, aviation safety, Crew Resource Management, CRM aviation, runway incursion, fog disaster, airport disaster, historical disasters, systems failure, communication failure, disaster analysis, airplane documentary, Boeing 747 disaster, Los Rodeos airport, An Ounce Podcast, aviation accidents, air traffic control, aviation mysteries, aviation tragedy

The distance between "Mackenzie Shirilla did something catastrophically reckless that killed two people" and "Mackenzie Shirilla executed a premeditated mission of death" is enormous. The verdict says it was murder. The evidence lives somewhere between those two conclusions — and this conversation is about figuring out where.Shirilla was convicted of four counts of murder for the Strongsville, Ohio crash that killed her boyfriend Dominic Russo and their friend Davion Flanagan. Netflix's The Crash brought the case to a national audience. Robin Dreeke, former head of the FBI's Behavioral Analysis Program, sits down for a full breakdown across three parts — her behavior, the investigation, and the competing versions of truth that everyone in this case is holding onto.Part one unpacks the behavioral evidence — what her threatening texts, volatile relationship, and TikTok persona actually tell a trained analyst versus what the prosecution used them to imply. Part two examines the investigative methodology — surveillance footage that shows a car but not a driver's mind, black box data with multiple interpretations, a bench trial with no jury, and a medical expert who was shut out of court by a one-day filing deadline. Part three confronts the human dynamics — a defendant who says she has no memory, families whose grief demands a specific answer, a fellow inmate who contradicts the documentary's portrayal, and a judge whose role in multiple decisions raises questions about bias.The evidence is real. The question is whether it proves what the verdict says it proves — premeditated murder beyond a reasonable doubt. Or whether assumptions about who Mackenzie Shirilla was filled in the gaps that the evidence left open. This conversation doesn't take sides. It takes the evidence seriously.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

When firefighters responded to a car burning off the side of Interstate 10 in Arizona, it looked like a routine highway fire. But hidden inside the vehicle was the body of 22-year-old Mercedes Vega, and investigators quickly realized this was one of the most horrifying cases they had ever encountered. As detectives dug into Mercedes' final hours, they uncovered a trail of disturbing clues: blood in her apartment parking garage, surveillance footage capturing her last known moments alive, abandoned vehicles, and evidence suggesting she may have been targeted long before the night she disappeared….If you're new here, don't forget to follow the show for weekly deep dives into the darkest true crime cases!

Assumptions are the part of the plan most likely to be wrong. The plan itself is usually logical. If X is true, then Y follows. The owner has thought through the steps. What he hasn't thought through is whether X is actually true. He's built a sound structure on ground he hasn't tested.

Dr. Nick Epley, PhD, is a professor of behavioral science at the University of Chicago and a leading expert on the science of social connection. We discuss how seemingly small daily interactions with strangers (as well as with people we know) can meaningfully improve our mental and physical health.
