Struggling with routines, self-doubt, or turning your creative passions into a real career as a late-diagnosed autistic or AuDHD adult? This episode of Adulting With Autism features JD Barker, a New York Times bestselling thriller author with 19 books to his name, co-writing credits with James Patterson, and a late autism diagnosis at 22.​ JD shares his journey from finance to full-time writing in his 40s, including ghostwriting multiple NYT bestsellers before building his own career and imprint. He talks about realistic writing routines (like aiming for 2–3K words a day and then shutting down work at a set time), how he structures his days to protect his focus, and how he uses autistic strengths such as pattern-spotting and deep focus to build complex plots.​ You will hear practical details on co-writing (splitting strengths and tasks), creating believable characters (using sketches and “actor” benchmarks to make them feel real), and reframing feedback—seeing reviews and early drafts as part of finding your voice rather than proof you should quit. JD also offers encouragement for autistic and ADHD creatives who worry they are “too late” or “too inconsistent” to ever finish a project.​ This episode is especially helpful if you: Are a late-diagnosed autistic or AuDHD creator trying to build a sustainable routine Dream of writing novels or long-form work but feel stuck or overwhelmed Want concrete examples of how an autistic author structures work, rest, and creativity If this conversation supports you, follow/subscribe to Adulting With Autism on Podbean, Apple, or Spotify and leave a 5-star review so more neurodivergent adults can find it.

This week's market update dives into several key economic signals, including the latest readings on inflation through CPI, PPI, along with the kickoff of fourth-quarter earnings season. Major banks are among the first to report, offering early insight into both the health of the economy and the broader market backdrop.A timely listener question also sparked a deeper discussion about how we evaluate market-moving headlines—and why news alone doesn't automatically trigger changes to a well-constructed portfolio. Using recent developments involving Venezuela as an example, we walk through the critical distinction between short-term trading and long-term investing. While geopolitical events can drive near-term volatility, our investment decisions are grounded in a disciplined, research-driven process. We explain how Henssler evaluates stocks using multi-point criteria and in-depth fundamental analysis, and why that approach aligns with our long-term financial planning philosophy, the Henssler Ten Year Rule.We're also unpacking a developing story that's drawing attention on Wall Street and in Washington. Reports indicate the U.S. attorney's office is reviewing testimony from Fed Chair Jerome Powell, a move that's quickly become part of a broader effort by the Trump administration to pressure the Federal Reserve to cut interest rates. We'll discuss what this could mean for the Fed's independence, why markets are paying close attention, and why—despite the headlines—monetary policy is intended to be guided by data, not politics.Finally, we take a closer look at today's auto market, where new car prices have jumped more than 30% since 2020, pushing average sticker prices past $50,000. We break down what's driving record-high monthly payments now averaging well over $750, the growing use of eight-, nine-, and even 10-year loan terms, and why these trends matter well beyond the dealership.Join hosts Nick Antonucci, CVA, CEPA, Director of Research, and Managing Associates K.C.

This time, we cover "Confessions of a (Pornographer's) Shroud".   This is the Clive Barker Podcast, where long-time fans Ryan and Jose interview guests, bring you the news, and take deep dives into Barker-related stuff.  This episode will be available in Podcast Audio and Youtube Video.  Sponsor : Don Bertram's Celebrate Imagination | Pinterest | ETSY Store Check out his recent painting, Father and Son III Texas Friends, Find Don at the Pearland Arts League 2026 Winter Arts Show Sponsor : Ed Martinez YouTube Channel 2001: The Future's Not What it Used to Be Sponsor : The Now Playing Podcast Book Club of Blood Discussion:  Books.

The story explored themes of sexual repression in British society and the corrupt underbelly of London's entertainment industry during the 1980s. The discussion included analysis of character motivations, the supernatural elements of Ronnie's ghostly form, and the story's dark humor. The podcasters also shared insights about the story's adaptation into a Tapping the Vein comic and discussed upcoming content including a 1978 movie commentary series where votes were still being collected between Superman and The Body Snatchers. The conversation ended with a light-hearted photo shoot using blankets as a creative way to represent the podcast's ghostly theme. The Pornographer's Shroud: Moral Consequences The group discussed Clive Barker's story "The Pornographer's Shroud" from Volume 3 of Books of Blood. José explained that the story explores how a man who builds his moral universe by denying the body faces consequences even after death, noting that Ronnie Glass, the protagonist, is an everyman who works for a pornography publisher but remains sexually prudish. Ryan and José discussed how the story reveals that Ronnie's moral judgments are flawed, as he believes sin can be corrected like an error in a ledger. The group agreed that the story is terrifying not just for its supernatural elements but also because Ronnie doesn't recognize his own evil, seeing himself as tidy and righteous. McGuire's Greed and Retribution The group discussed a story involving Michael McGuire, who discovers his boss's involvement in distributing explicit magazines. José explained that McGuire, who appears respectable but is driven by greed, becomes angry when he learns about his boss's illegal activities. The story critiques British society's repressive nature, as McGuire's public persona contrasts with his private actions. Ryan questioned why McGuire would visit the warehouse, given his knowledge of the illegal operations, and José suggested McGuire's curiosity and denial played a role. The discussion concluded with McGuire punching his boss in a fit of rage, only to face retaliation from McGuire's associates. Ronnie's Fall and Path to Revenge The group discussed a scenario involving Ronnie Glass, who was smeared by the media after being linked to a pornography case, despite not being directly involved. They analyzed how Ronnie's reputation was destroyed, his wife left him, and he felt a twisted sense of relief during his beating, viewing it as a form of punishment. The conversation also touched on Ronnie's transformation from feeling betrayed to seeking revenge, his struggle to obtain a gun in England, and his cold, calculated approach to planning murder after his wife's departure. Ronnie Glass's Vengeful Journey The group discussed the character Ronnie Glass and his journey of revenge after being wrongfully accused and framed by his criminal associates. They analyzed his cold-blooded killings of Henry B and Dennis Dork Lozati, noting his lack of conscience and methodical approach to settling scores. The discussion highlighted how Ronnie's actions not only avenged his own wrongs but also shook the underworld's power balance, with some respecting his courage while others condemned his brutality. The conversation also touched on Ronnie's missed opportunity for redemption by not leaving a letter to his wife to explain his innocence and the impact of his actions on innocent people. Violence and Emotional Detachment The group discussed a violent story involving Ronnie's murder by McGuire, who then casually returned to social activities afterward. They noted how the characters showed little emotional response to the violence, with the pathologist and his assistants engaging in trivial conversation while performing the autopsy. Ronnie's wife visited his body without much emotional display, and he later became frustrated by the disrespectful treatment during the autopsy, leading him to leave his body through his shroud and become a ghost-like figure. Ronnie's Shroud Murder Spree The group discussed a story involving Ronnie, who gains the ability to manipulate a shroud to create a semi-human form and uses this power to kill a pathologist. Ronnie later encounters McGuire in a sex shop, where McGuire is choked and killed by Ronnie, who then escapes. The story also follows McGuire's goons and their interactions with corrupt police officers, including a scene where one goon is beaten for pleasuring himself in the police station. McGuire's Tragic End The group discussed a scene involving McGuire, who is recovering from an attack and reflecting on his life while surrounded by portraits of his heroes. McGuire's wife and child visit, but after the dogs start barking, Ronnie, who is already on the property, attacks McGuire. Ronnie ultimately kills McGuire by jamming his shroud down McGuire's throat, then shoots McGuire's wife and Norton before being killed by the Shroud in front of McGuire's young daughter. The story then shifts to Ronnie seeking redemption by confessing to a priest, but Father Rooney is distracted by taking photographs with a woman named Natalie. The Body Politik Adaptation Discussion The group discussed the story "The Body Politik," focusing on its themes of suburban tranquility masking deeper secrets and its adaptation into a Tapping the Vein comic. They noted that the story would work better as a short film or part of an anthology series rather than a full-length feature. José mentioned that the story shares similarities with other Clyde Barker works, such as "Hell's Event" and "Pig Blood Blues." The discussion concluded with comments from Reddit users praising the story's pacing and Clive Barker's ability to make unusual ideas believable, as well as noting that the Mick Garris adaptation was not well-received.

Sermon Notes Date: 12/28/2025 Preacher: Monty Simao, pastor Series: Wisdom and Worship: Walking Through Psalms and Proverbs Key Text: Psalm 118 Description: Disappointment. Loss.

December 27, 2025: (Repeat) The Long Game: Investing, Mortgages, and Year-End Money MovesWhile we're out of the studio this week, we've collected a selection of great discussions from the past few months. For young men, knowing every player stat is easier than understanding investing—but it doesn't have to be that way. We respond to a listener's question about the rise of sports betting and show how the same competitive spirit can be redirected toward “betting” on the markets—tracking long-term wins, company performance, and financial growth.After the break, we dive into a headline-grabbing idea: 50-year mortgages. The Federal Housing Finance Agency is floating the concept, but would stretching a home loan over five decades make homebuying more accessible—or simply saddle borrowers with far more interest over time? We lay out the potential benefits, the pitfalls, and what this could mean for future homeowners.We walk through the essentials of year-end IRA planning—from maximizing contributions to handling required minimum distributions and reviewing beneficiaries. We highlight key deadlines, common pitfalls to avoid, and tactics that can help strengthen your long-term savings.We'll also answer a listener question about donor-advised funds—a charitable giving tool that lets you give now, decide later, and save on taxes today.Join hosts Nick Antonucci, CVA, CEPA, Director of Research, and Managing Associates K.C. Smith, CFP®, CEPA, and D.J. Barker, CWS®, and Kelly-Lynne Scalice, a seasoned communicator and host, on Henssler Money Talks as they explore key financial strategies to help investors navigate market uncertainty. Henssler Money Talks — December 27, 2025  |  Season 39, Episode 52Timestamps and Chapters3:48: Bench the Bets, Back the Market18:03: 50-Year Home Stretch32:23: Your Year-End IRA Playbook41:56: The Giving Tool You're Not Using (But Should)Follow Henssler:  Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/HensslerFinancial/ YouTube:  https://www.youtube.com/c/HensslerFinancial LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/henssler-financial/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/hensslerfinancial/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@hensslerfinancial?lang=en X: https://www.x.com/hensslergroup “Henssler Money Talks” is brought to you by Henssler Financial.

The State argues the district court correctly allowed evidence related to the murder of Charles Vallow and the attempted killing of Brandon Boudreaux, not to show criminal propensity, but to establish a pattern, plan, knowledge, and financial motive that closely mirrors the crimes involving JJ Vallow, Tylee Ryan, and Tammy Daybell. Prosecutors emphasize the defense had long-standing access to this evidence, defeating claims of unfair surprise or prejudice.The episode then breaks down Vallow's speedy trial argument using the Barker v. Wingo balancing test. While the length of delay slightly favors Vallow, the State explains that most of the delay was caused by the defense, including multiple competency proceedings and a change of venue. Vallow also failed to show any actual prejudice to her defense.Ultimately, the State asks the appellate court to affirm Lori Vallow Daybell's conviction, arguing that none of the claims raised on appeal warrant reversal. Appeals in Arizona are still expected, meaning the legal process is far from over.ALL MERCH 10% off with code Sherlock10 at checkout  - NEW STYLES Donate: (Thank you for your support!

They briefly talked about challenges in finding certain comic books, including a hardcover edition, and Ryan mentioned receiving negative feedback on Reddit for posting about comics. The conversation ended with José searching for the PDF and Ryan preparing to start recordings. RAWHEAD REX DISCUSSION AND THEMES The Book Club of Blood returned with episode 519, where Ryan shared his experience reading Snow by Ronald Malfe at a Dark Fairbanks Book Club meeting, which had only 4 attendees out of 18 who registered. The main discussion focused on Clive Barker's Rawhead Rex, a feral folk horror novella about an ancient forest entity in England, with Ryan, José, and wnbla discussing the story's themes of modernization vs. tradition in the English countryside. They explored how the protagonist Ron Milton's attempts to modernize the village of Zeal conflict with local legends and traditions, particularly regarding an ancient warning rock that has become forgotten over time. RAWHEAD REX ADAPTATION COMPARISONS The group discussed the differences between the book and movie adaptations of Rawhead Rex, focusing on the character development and visual representation of Rawhead. They noted that the movie lacked the original script's detailed opening sequence and internal dialogue from Rawhead's perspective, which would have provided a more nuanced portrayal of the monster. The conversation also touched on the creature design in the film, comparing it to the book's description and highlighting the movie's limitations in terms of budget and special effects. The discussion concluded with a brief overview of the main characters in the story and their roles in the narrative. RAWHEAD CHARACTER ANALYSIS DISCUSSION The group discussed the character Rawhead, exploring his fears of femininity and his destructive nature. They compared the movie adaptation to the original story, noting differences in character interactions and plot details. José shared information about a failed comic adaptation and the rarity of the published version. The conversation also touched on the artistic contributions of various creators involved in the comic and movie adaptations. SUPERNATURAL ALTAR FILM ADAPTATION The group discussed the film adaptation of the story about a mysterious altar and its connection to supernatural events. They explored how the film depicted the characters' experiences with the altar's power, including Koot's painful erection and Declan's distorted vision. The story delves into the history of the settlement, with Declan sharing his knowledge of ancient tales about a creature called Rawhead. They also discussed the film's portrayal of the investigation into the murders, including the detective's initial underestimation of the killer's cunning. RAWHEAD REX: REMAKE POTENTIAL The group discussed Clive Barker's novel "Rawhead Rex," focusing on its adaptation into a film. They explored themes of monstrous beings and human desire for power, as well as the film's depiction of a priest being enthralled by the monster. The conversation touched on the film's visual elements and potential for a remake, with José noting that the scene of the priest urinating on a character named Vickers remained in the final cut despite Clive Barker's initial doubts. The group agreed that "Rawhead Rex" could be a good candidate for a remake, particularly with modern visual effects technology. RAWHEAD CHURCH ATTACK SCENE The group discussed the plot of a horror movie involving a monster named Rawhead, focusing on a scene where the monster attacks a priest and a young boy in a church. They described how the monster overpowers the priest, causing him to have visions and leading to a confrontation with police. The discussion also covered the monster's ability to regenerate and the aftermath of the attack, including the priest's injuries and the character's hospitalization. RAWHEAD REX: BOOK VS. MOVIE The group discussed the differences between the book and movie adaptations of "Rawhead Rex," focusing on character development, plot details, and the horror elements. José and Ryan highlighted the book's more complex and disturbing narrative, including the graphic depiction of the monster's attack and the visceral details of the child's death. They compared the movie's portrayal, noting its limitations in capturing the book's intensity and the substitution of a human slave for the monster's destructive actions. José and Ryan also discussed the significance of the religious relic in the book, emphasizing its symbolic representation of feminine power and its role in defeating the monster. The conversation concluded with reflections on the movie's simplification of the story and the potential for a more faithful adaptation in the future. RAWHEAD REX ADAPTATION DISCUSSION The group discussed the movie adaptation of Clive Barker's Rawhead Rex, noting its limitations compared to the original story. They explored the potential for a better rendition of the story in the future. José and Ryan worked on formatting and publishing details for the second printing of their book, including creating separate versions for Kindle and Apple Books. They planned to complete these tasks and order proofs the next day, with the goal of announcing the availability of the updated book soon after.

From festive traditions to financial realities, this episode covers a wide range of timely topics as the year comes to a close. We start with a lighter look at the season, unpacking some of this year's biggest holiday trends, starting with Elf on the Shelf's Marietta roots. Elf on the Shelf has grown from a simple idea into a global enterprise. Its deep connection to holiday tradition has helped create a sustainable, enduring business model year after year. Next we jump into the shopping trends from Labubu to Crumbl Cookies to luxury items. We consider what current consumer spending trends reveal about shoppers' confidence. We'll discuss what a K-shaped recovery tells us about consumer financial health and what it could mean for the economy heading into the new year.From there, we turn to the economy, diving into recently released data including November's employment growth and the current unemployment rate. Is the AI trend fully supporting our economy? In some ways yes, but we're also seeing the broader market catch up to the Magnificent Seven. Student loans are also back in the spotlight, with significant changes carrying major implications for millions of borrowers. We break down what's happening with income-driven repayment plans, including updates to IBR and the emerging Repayment Assistance Plan, and how these shifts may affect monthly payments and long-term forgiveness timelines. Our host KC was recently quoted in CNBC on these developments, and we'll explain what the legal and policy changes mean for your financial future.Finally, we look ahead to upcoming tax-law changes tied to higher education, including repayment plan phase-outs and expanded rules around federal education benefits—part of the broader One Big Beautiful Bill that could reshape student debt and college costs in the years ahead.Join hosts Nick Antonucci, CVA, CEPA, Director of Research, and Managing Associates K.C.

The Leisure System co-founder talks psychology, behavioral science and his standout album of the year, Stochastic Drift. Sam Barker's influence on contemporary electronic music culture spans many levels—not only as a producer and DJ pushing against traditional genre boundaries, but also as key figure behind the scenes as head of the label Leisure System. He came into RA HQ to talk about the central thesis in his current work: exploring organic, human timing in a genre that has become increasingly obsessed with mechanized grids. The Berlin-based artist tells us about how he puts this theory into practice in his standout album of the year, Stochastic Drift, and his recent collaborative project with saxophonist Bendik Giske. Beyond the technical, he also reflects on the evolution of the Berlin scene, the surprising arguments for liberation in the streaming economy and the role of art in imagining a utopian future.

We're knee-deep in the last month of trading for the year, and the Fed just delivered its last rate cut of the year—exactly as expected, but not without disagreement on the committee. Tune in for a fast breakdown of the week's market swings and what December's meeting could signal for 2026.Since the election, investors have been buzzing about the “Trump Trades”—the expected to soar under the new administration. But did they actually perform? We dig into the stocks that were supposed to surge, the ones that fizzled, and the surprising rallies sparked by political headlines and social-media “market tips.”A brand-new stock exchange is headed for Texas. Necessary innovation or just noise? With SEC approval, heavyweight backing, and plans to launch in early 2026, TXSE could reshape where—and how—companies list and trade. We break down what it could mean for public markets and everyday investors.And as part of our ongoing series on AI's financial footprint, we unpack Meta Platforms' latest move: a $27 billion data-center buildout that won't touch its balance sheet. Through a joint venture with Blue Owl Capital—where Meta keeps just a 20% stake and books the facility as a lease—the company is pushing off-balance-sheet financing to new territory.

First, Ben and Celestia ruminate on past Key Bridge conspiracy theories, RFK Jr.'s latest efforts to destroy public health, rage bait and the "Cártel de los Soles." Then for our main segment Daniel Reed, founder of the West Virginia Skeptics Society, joins us to discuss the Vegetable Man, a cryptid/alien one-hit-wonder. This blood-sucking, fiber-rich fiction is part of Gray Barker's menagerie -- Barker was a colorful character who loved a good story and had a few skeletons in his own closet, one of which led to the creation of the modern "men in black" mythos. Daniel has done his homework and culled heaps of information from the reams of original correspondence in Barker's archives.
