Host Jesse Jackson welcomes returning guest Arlen Schumer, who discusses his Twilight Zone book and debates standout episodes including “Eye of the Beholder,” “To Serve Man,” and “Walking Distance,” while previewing a September webinar deconstructing “Shadow Play.” Schumer then shares his opening-day visit to the newly renamed Bruce Springsteen Center for American Music, praising its first-class architecture, interior design, and dense, well-presented exhibits, including a detail about matching wood to Bruce's guitar. The conversation ranges into Springsteen's influences, the “Boss” nickname, Bruce's cultural stature compared with Elvis, Dylan, The Beatles, and Hendrix, and the role of managers Mike Appel and Jon Landau in his career. Schumer also notes rising interest from Black audiences via reaction videos and plugs his website and upcoming events. https://arlenschumer.com/ 00:00 Patreon Thanks 01:29 Meet Arlen 02:03 Twilight Zone Favorites 07:47 Serling Legacy Today 11:13 Twilight Zone Meets Bruce 13:07 Springsteen Center Opens 14:21 Design Details Tour 20:48 Why Not The Boss 21:48 Bruce As The King 27:06 Biopic Scenes And Myth 30:02 Appel Hammond Landau 36:28 Appel Versus Landau 38:11 Outtakes And Alternate Albums 39:17 Bruce As Generational Icon 41:10 Dylan Beatles And Jungleland 48:05 Modesty Influences And Museum 51:47 Unreleased Songs Deep Dive 54:59 Archives Beyond Bruce 56:42 Race Audience And Reaction Videos 01:02:47 Where To Find Arlen 01:03:51 Twilight Zone Events 01:06:47 Farewell And Listener Outro Learn more about your ad choices.

What if the thing you feared most was simply being different? In this episode of ProfessorFrenzy, we take a look at one of the most famous and disturbing episodes of The Twilight Zone, "Eye of the Beholder." First broadcast in 1960, this unforgettable story follows Janey Tyler, a woman who has undergone a series of treatments in the hope of changing her appearance and finally being accepted by society. But what exactly does Janet look like? And why is everyone so determined to keep her hidden? We'll explore the story, performances, direction, themes, social commentary, and unforgettable ending that helped make "Eye of the Beholder" one of the Twilight Zone's most enduring episodes. We'll also examine the episode's ideas about beauty, conformity, prejudice, identity, and the dangers of allowing society to decide what is 'normal'.  If you love classic television, vintage science fiction, horror, and The Twilight Zone, join Professor Frenzy for a journey into one of television's most memorable trips into the unknown.

In this first part of a two-part conversation, Dr. Paul Weaver speaks with Dr. Lydia McGrew about one of the most important—and controversial—issues facing the evangelical church: genre criticism and its implications for the historical reliability of the Gospels.What happens when we interpret Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John through the lens of literary conventions and Greco-Roman biography? Did the Gospel writers rearrange events or alter historical details for literary purposes? And where is the line between legitimate literary technique and changing what actually happened?In this episode, they discuss:Genre criticism and how it is being applied to the GospelsThe Gospels as Greco-Roman biographies (bioi)Literary devices, authorial intent, and historical accuracyWhether Gospel writers rearranged events or changed detailsThe relationship between genre criticism and biblical inerrancyWhy these questions matter for Gospel reliability and Christian confidence in ScriptureDr. Lydia McGrew is an analytic philosopher specializing in epistemology and the historical reliability of the New Testament. She is the author of Hidden in Plain View, The Mirror or the Mask, The Eye of the Beholder, and Testimonies to the Truth.Watch Part 1 now, and join us for Part 2 as the conversation continues. If you find this discussion helpful, share it with someone who wants to think more deeply about the reliability of the Gospels and the authority of Scripture.Subscribe to Bible & Theology Matters for more conversations about Scripture, theology, apologetics, and the truth of Christianity.Because what you really believe determines how you really behave.

Author Steven Jay Rubin, Crime Watch Daily's Chris Hansen, Author Tracy Emerick, and GildaGram with Dr. Gilda CarleThis edition of The Neil Haley Show opens with a Total Celebrity conversation with Steven Jay Rubin, author of The Twilight Zone Encyclopedia. Rubin, a film historian who spent over three years on the project, said he set out to honor not just Rod Serling but the hundreds of actors and behind-the-scenes people across the show's 156 episodes who might otherwise be lost to history, gathering rare photos and untold stories. He described Serling as a genius who came out of live television determined to tell morality plays about the common man, and who, blocked at every turn by nervous networks and sponsors, learned to cloak real-world issues in science fiction and fantasy, wanting to dramatize the Emmett Till case and being told to change the victim's identity before turning to allegory like Eye of the Beholder. Rubin argued Serling was among the first to grasp television's power to reach more people in twenty minutes than all the authors in history, and pointed fans to his daily Twilight Zone history feature on Facebook. The book is available at bookstores and on Amazon.Neil then welcomed veteran journalist Chris Hansen of Crime Watch Daily. Hansen described a daily program unlike anything else on daytime television, spanning murder mysteries, investigations, the latest Hansen versus Predator work, and breaking news, all guided by his longtime mission: to get into the mind of the criminal, hear the voice of the victim, and help prevent others from becoming victims. He spoke about the show's Badge of Honor segment saluting law enforcement, sharing the story of an Oregon state trooper shot twelve times who survived and returned to duty, and of NYPD officers who drove a suspected bomb to a less populated area to save lives. Noting the show reaches hundreds of cities, he previewed an exclusive interview in a self-defense case and pointed viewers to crimewatchdaily.com to find local listings.The hour continued with author Tracy Emerick, Ph.D., about his book Nifty Neighbors: Mister Rogers and Jesus Christ. Emerick explained that the book is part of a series he writes as bridges for people who are not necessarily believers, pairing well-known figures, Steve Jobs, Martin Luther King Jr., Bill Belichick, Oprah Winfrey, and others, with Jesus Christ, telling stories rather than lectures. He described Fred Rogers, a Presbyterian minister, as a masterful storyteller whose on-air transformation into sweater and sneakers made him a comforting neighbor, and drew parallels to Jesus welcoming the little children and meeting people, like the woman at the well, where they were. Both, he argued, were gentle but never pushovers, holding high expectations while leading with kindness, and his hope is simply to hold up a mirror that prompts readers to reflect.The program closes with GildaGram, where Dr. Gilda Carle explored what success can cost at home, warning that when two partners compete to climb, jealousy can replace partnership, and urging couples to set clear roles and boundaries and to give each other room to decompress after demanding days. In a heavier segment, she responded to backlash over a remark about male fragility, clarifying that she was pointing to the disproportionately high rate of suicide among men and boys and calling on listeners to mentor and support struggling young men rather than dismiss the issue. Find Steven Jay Rubin's The Twilight Zone Encyclopedia on Amazon and Tracy Emerick's Nifty Neighbors wherever books are sold.

Did Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John rewrite or reshape the history of Jesus? Did the Gospel writers rearrange events, alter details, or even create scenes that never actually happened?These are some of the challenging claims being made in contemporary New Testament scholarship—and they raise an important question for Christians: Can we trust the Gospels as historically reliable accounts of the life of Jesus?In this episode of the Bible and Theology Matters Podcast, Dr. Paul Weaver is joined by Dr. Lydia McGrew, an analytic philosopher and prominent defender of the historical reliability of the New Testament and the Gospels.Dr. McGrew explains her journey from philosophy and formal epistemology into New Testament studies and discusses why she became increasingly concerned about scholarly approaches to the Gospels that, in her view, undermine their historical reliability.The conversation focuses particularly on genre criticism, Greco-Roman biography (bioi), compositional devices, authorial intent, eyewitness testimony, undesigned coincidences, and biblical inerrancy.Dr. McGrew challenges the idea that the Gospel writers intentionally changed historical facts for theological or literary purposes. She argues that there is an important difference between ordinary figures of speech—such as hyperbole—and what she calls fact-changing literary devices, in which an author knowingly presents something as having happened when he believes it did not.One example discussed is the Gospel of John and Jesus' statement, "I thirst." Another is the location and timing of the temple cleansing and the claim that Luke deliberately relocated events geographically.The discussion also asks a crucial question: Where does legitimate literary analysis end and historical revision begin?In this episode, you'll discover:What genre criticism is and how it is being applied to the GospelsWhat scholars mean by Greco-Roman bioi or ancient biographyWhether identifying the Gospels as Greco-Roman biographies strengthens or limits their historical reliabilityThe difference between intrinsic and extrinsic genreWhy authorial intent matters when interpreting ScriptureWhat compositional devices are and why Dr. McGrew challenges their application to the GospelsThe difference between ordinary figures of speech and fact-changing literary devicesWhether the Gospel writers deliberately changed the order or details of historical eventsThe significance of Jesus saying "I thirst" in the Gospel of JohnThe debate over the cleansing of the temple in John 2The question of whether Luke relocated events from Galilee to JerusalemWhy undesigned coincidences can provide evidence for eyewitness testimonyHow internal details in the Gospels can support their historical reliabilityWhy the historical reliability of the Gospels matters for Christian faith and apologeticsWhether Christians need specialized academic knowledge to understand what the Gospels are communicatingHow genre criticism may affect pastors, preaching, and confidence in the biblical textThe relationship between biblical inerrancy, historical reliability, and interpretationWhy Christians should carefully evaluate scholarly arguments rather than simply accepting claims based on academic credentialsWhy Does This Matter?This discussion is ultimately about more than literary theory.If the Gospels are intended to communicate genuine historical events, but we are told that the Gospel authors routinely changed facts, relocated events, or created scenes while presenting them as history, that has significant implications for what Christians can know about the life, ministry, death, and resurrection of Jesus.As Dr. McGrew explains, the question is not whether the Gospel writers used literary techniques. Scripture clearly contains different genres and figures of speech. The more important question is whether those techniques include deliberately changing historical facts while leaving readers with the impression that those events actually occurred.This episode invites listeners to examine those claims carefully and to consider the evidence for the historical trustworthiness of the Gospels.If you are interested in New Testament reliability, biblical inerrancy, Gospel historicity, Christian apologetics, genre criticism, eyewitness testimony, or how scholars interpret the Gospels, this conversation is for you.About Dr. Lydia McGrewDr. Lydia McGrew is an analytic philosopher who specializes in formal epistemology and the theory of knowledge. She has published extensively in philosophy and has become well known for her work defending the historical reliability of the New Testament and the Gospels.She is the author of Hidden in Plain View, The Mirror or the Mask, The Eye of the Beholder, and Testimonies to the Truth, works that examine evidence for eyewitness testimony, undesigned coincidences, and the historical reliability of the Gospel accounts.

What happens when we stop looking at a building simply as a building?For Lincoln Stoller, physicist, psychotherapist and son of celebrated architectural photographer Ezra Stoller, the answer lies somewhere between architecture, psychology, nature, photography and the human capacity to experience something beyond the immediately visible.Ezra Stoller was regarded as one of the pre-eminent architectural photographers of his generation. His extraordinary archive includes some of the most significant buildings of twentieth-century modernism, photographed not simply as objects, but as experiences. His approach was distinctive: rather than producing straightforward images designed to showcase a building, he sought something beyond it – what Lincoln describes as the “essential and ethereal.”This is particularly fascinating when we consider Frank Lloyd Wright, whose architecture is now frequently discussed through the lens of Biophilic Design, despite Wright never using the term. Wright trusted Ezra to understand what he was trying to achieve without needing to explain it. Lincoln describes their relationship as almost a meeting of opposites: Wright the forceful creator, Ezra the sensitive and receptive observer. Together, they understood something difficult to put into words – the ineffable quality of space.And perhaps this is where photography and Biophilic Design meet.We talk increasingly about awe: the experience of encountering something larger, more complex or more powerful than ourselves. In Biophilic Design, awe can be created through views, scale, natural processes, unexpected vistas, light, movement and encounters with the living world. Wright intuitively understood the power of these experiences. At Fallingwater, for example, architecture, water, landscape, movement and changing views combine to create something that is far more than a collection of rooms.Ezra's photographs similarly invite us to pause. They create vistas within vistas, playing with light, scale, confinement, openness and perspective. They ask us not simply to look, but to notice, associate, feel and imagine. As Lincoln puts it, the best photographs can call into our minds things we have not previously seen, felt or thought.That makes Eye of the Beholder more than an architectural photography book. It is an invitation to reconsider how we see the built environment – and what it might reveal about ourselves.Lincoln is currently raising support through Kickstarter to preserve Ezra Stoller's remarkable photographic archive and bring these images and their stories together in a new book. For architects, designers, photographers, students and anyone interested in the relationship between people, place and perception, it is an opportunity to encounter some familiar buildings through very different eyes.Because sometimes the most important thing a photograph can show us is not the building itself, but what the building makes us feel.** Win one of 50 digital subscriptions to the Journal of Biophilic Design, just sign up to our free newsletter throughout August 2026 sign up for the chance of winning: https://mailchi.mp/journalofbiophilicdesign.com/50-free-subscription-promotion Links mentioned in the Podcast: https://www.mindstrengthbalance.com‍ ‍https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/mindstrengthbalance/from-the-eye-of-the-beholderLincoln's Substack article “Is Architecture History or Prophecy?”, https://mindstrengthbalance.substack.com/p/is-architecture-history-or-prophesy?triedRedirect=trueWhat is Biophilic Design: https://journalofbiophilicdesign.com/what-is-biophilic-design If you love Architecture why not download our PDF on Biophilic Design and Architecture: https://journalofbiophilicdesign.com/shop/journal-of-biophilic-design-issue-17-architecture-ebook Please register for our newsletter on our website https://journalofbiophilicdesign.com/podcasts-journal-of-biophilic-design Credits: with thanks to George Harvey Audio Production for the calming biophilic soundscape that backs all our podcasts.

This week Terry and Paul finally get their banadages taken off and hope they can fit into society after discussing the remake of 'The Eye of the Beholder.' Does this version have anything new to say or will it require another procedure...

Una riflessione sul lavoro, sull'esaurimento, sulla ricerca di un senso e sulla responsabilità nella vita personale di una musicista, come nella società. Odd Beholder ha scritto un album dopo aver osservato amici e amiche consumarsi con il lavoro a scapito della salute e della qualità della vita. La musicista e attivista argoviese Daniela Weinmann ne parla nel suo ultimo album “Honest Work” (2026 Sinnbus).Non è un confronto tra il “privilegio” di chi può permettersi di fare il musicista indipendente e le condizioni di chi svolge mestieri “tradizionali”, ma se sul fronte musicale la realtà è stravolta dall'industria tecnologica, nel mondo del lavoro (soprattutto nelle grandi aziende) i presupposti sono astratti, globalizzati, instabili e difficilmente negoziabili; standards sempre più bassi che spingono a chiedersi per chi, e a vantaggio di chi, impieghiamo una vita trascorsa in gran parte lavorando per qualcuno. Odd Beholder si chiede come sarà il lavoro del futuro (come noi vorremmo che fosse) e, soprattutto, che cosa significa davvero vivere bene.“Honest Work” è la fotografia di un senso diffuso di rassegnazione e disorientamento di una società che vive una normalità solo apparente. È un disco che non da risposte ma che dice che “non basta una pausa per un curare un burnout”, servono nuove prospettive.Prodotto e realizzato in tandem con il DJ tedesco Douglas Greed (per questo, forse, più frizzante ritmicamente), “Honest Work” è un buon punto di partenza, ben ragionato e carico di rabbia, per portare un po' di chiarezza nella realtà complessa del mondo del lavoro.Sandra Romano ha incontrato Daniela Weinmann a Zurigo, 5 anni dopo la sua ultima apparizione a Confederation Music.

Please join us on this new moon of February to do healing to calm anxiety and anxiousness.  Each of our emotional states creates a corresponding pranic energy in our body.  If these negative emotional states such as anxiety are chronic, these corresponding pranic energies build up in our physical body and organ systems.  This new moon healing is meant to use various Arcturian energies to clear and balance our physical and subtle bodies from accumulated energies of stress, anxiety, and anxiousness.  Also included in this 50 minute healing session is the balancing and calming of the amygdala-the brain structure most associated with stress, anxiety, and the fear response.  Additionally there will be a 10 minute Arcutrian Anti-Anxiety transmission as part of the greater healing session which is a direct download from the Arcturians to help us individually with stress and resilience.After the healing session we will take a 10 minute integration break followed by a Pillar of Light meditation meant to soothe and balance our system.  In particular we will be focusing on our Witnessing consciousness or the Beholder which beholds how the Divine unfolds in our life.  Use this meditation through the recordings given from this session to continue to practice this meditation until the full moon that occurs 14 days later.  This is an excellent way to strengthen your spiritual path and build your subtle bodies.  We will also discuss how to use various spiritual and energetic practices over time such as this meditation to strengthen your resilience and will power.

Título de juego de rol para este episodio de TNG, ‘Eye of the Beholder', en el que, realmente, Troi vive en primera persona el papel de un asesino vicario que acaba suicidándose, pero deja una huella psíquica por sus poderes telepáticos que provoca el suicidio de un joven tripulante, y casi el de Troi mismo. El episodio, que entramos a comentar a partir del minuto 33, también ahonda en la relación Troi-Worf, pero nuevamente fuera de la realidad y solo en la mente de Troi.

Eigentlich haben sie wenig gemeinsam: Odd Beholder, das kühle Electropop-Projekt von Daniela Weinmann, und die Zürcher Rock'n'Roller Annie Taylor. Ausser, dass beide am 22. Mai ein neues Album veröffentlicht haben – und seit Jahren zum Besten gehören, was die CH-Indie-Szene zu bieten hat. Und wenn man etwas genauer hinschaut – beziehungsweise hinhört –, entdeckt man dann doch Parallelen zwischen den neuen Alben «Out of Scale» (Annie Taylor) und «Honest Work» (Odd Beholder): das Motiv des Wassers, das immer wieder auftaucht, oder Durchhaltestrategien in einer Welt, in der Menschen zwischen Verbindungssuche und Selbstoptimierung verloren zu gehen drohen. So haben wir sie im Gespräch also doch gefunden: die Gemeinsamkeiten zwischen Annie-Taylor-Frontfrau Gini Jungi und Daniela Weinmann, die wir aus Platzgründen (verflixte Eishockey-WM!) zum ungewöhnlichen, aber schlussendlich spassigen Doppelinterview eingeladen haben.

Welcome back dear listeners! This week, we are joined by Stratik, who invites us to stare deeply into the world of melodic techno with their mix: Eye of the Beholder. (disintegration ray not included) Stratik, a lover of raves and electronic music; a DJ of 14 years, operates out of Billings, MT. They have dazzled stages at Tesseract, Resurgance, Polaris, and an endless list of house parties and clubs. Inspired by the mystical, spiritual, and psychedelic meaning of music, they've set their gaze on a melodic mix that includes artists such as Detuned, Tinlicker, Daniele Di Martino, VNTM, and more. But hey.. don't let me spoil it all, come see(hear) for yourself! A few words from the artist: "This is one of my favorite sounds I haven't had the opportunity to play live for people yet. I love to tell a story with my mixes, there should be highs and lows and surprises that sweep you off your feet, and that's what I try to achieve with every mix I record. I hope this music can teleport you somewhere else, if only for a little while. I love you and I love all humans and pray to see peace and prosperity on earth and unity in our life time.

There are monsters in tabletop RPGs that exist to be fought, monsters that exist to be feared, and monsters that exist to make the Dungeon Master quietly whisper, "I hope you prepared spells with saving throws." Beholders fall squarely into that last category. This week on RPGBOT.Podcast, we're diving deep into Beholder-Kin — floating orbs of paranoia, laser violence, and architectural malpractice. From tiny gazers that exist solely to be annoying, to death tyrants that refuse to stay dead out of spite, we explore why beholders remain one of Dungeons & Dragons' most iconic, miserable, and tactically terrifying monsters. Along the way, we discuss dream-based reproduction, anti-magic cones, and why every beholder lair looks like it was designed to fail a building inspection on purpose. Show Notes Beholders are one of the oldest and most recognizable monsters in Dungeons & Dragons, and for good reason. They aren't just bags of hit points with flashy attacks — they're intelligent, paranoid, and cruel creatures that reshape both combat and storytelling the moment they appear in a campaign. In this episode, the hosts break down what defines beholders and their many variants, collectively known as Beholder-Kin, and why they're such effective villains across nearly every tier of play. The discussion starts with what makes beholders fundamentally different from other monsters. Their signature eye rays, combined with a central anti-magic eye, mean that fights against beholders rarely follow predictable patterns. Even experienced players are forced to react rather than execute clean plans. The randomness of eye rays creates chaos, but the creature's intelligence means that chaos is applied with intent — the rays may be random, but the targets absolutely are not. From there, the conversation expands into the many variants of Beholder-Kin found throughout D&D. Gazers, spectators, gauths, mind witnesses, beholder zombies, death kisses, and death tyrants all represent different expressions of the same alien biology. Each fills a distinct role, allowing Dungeon Masters to introduce beholder-themed encounters from the earliest levels all the way into high-tier play without losing flavor or threat. This flexibility is one of the reasons beholders remain so enduring in D&D design. Combat tactics play a major role in the episode, especially the importance of running beholders intelligently. A beholder that floats into melee range and trades bite attacks is a beholder being played incorrectly. These creatures thrive on distance, verticality, and environmental control. Their lairs are often carved with disintegration rays, filled with vertical shafts, traps, and contingency plans, and designed to punish creatures that rely on gravity. When played well, a beholder encounter feels less like a fair fight and more like surviving a hostile environment that actively hates you. The episode also dives into beholder lore and ecology, which somehow manages to be both fascinating and deeply unsettling. Earlier editions described grotesque physical reproduction, while modern D&D reframes beholder reproduction as a dream-based phenomenon where nightmares literally manifest new beholders into reality. This almost always results in immediate territorial violence, reinforcing the idea that beholders are incapable of peaceful coexistence — even with themselves. To balance the horror, the hosts also explore notable exceptions in D&D lore. Famous beholders like Xanathar embody tragic paranoia, while figures like Large Luigi — an omniscient beholder tavern owner in Spelljammer — prove that even reality-warping aberrations can choose hospitality over genocide. These examples highlight how beholders can serve not just as villains, but as unforgettable NPCs, information brokers, or narrative wild cards. The episode wraps by touching on player-facing options. While players can't normally play beholders, they can still interact with Beholder-Kin through warlock patrons, summoned spectators, or gazer familiars. Used carefully, these options let players brush up against beholder weirdness without completely breaking the game — though the temptation to do something irresponsible is always there. Key Takeaways Beholder-Kin work because they operate on multiple levels at once. Mechanically, they introduce chaos through randomized effects, but narratively they reward intelligent, ruthless play. A beholder encounter is never just about hit points — it's about positioning, preparation, and survival. These monsters scale exceptionally well across a campaign. From CR ½ gazers to CR 14 death tyrants, Beholder-Kin allow Dungeon Masters to introduce consistent themes without repeating the same fight. Each variant reinforces the core beholder identity while adding new tactical wrinkles. Lair design is not optional when using beholders. Their environments are an extension of their personality: vertical, hostile, and unapologetically unfair. A beholder fought on flat ground is missing half its threat. Finally, beholders remain iconic because they embody the strange heart of D&D. They're terrifying, absurd, overdesigned, and deeply committed to their own misery. Whether used as cosmic horror, dungeon boss, or omniscient bartender, Beholder-Kin remind us that sometimes the most memorable monsters are the ones that don't want to exist — but absolutely refuse to stop.

This was a fun mid-week crossword, built with HI (Human Intelligence), with just a skosh of (non-AI) assistance from Excel. (See the xwordinfo.com entry for the gory details). The theme was, well, punny, and the surrounding clues intriguing. We liked 1D, It goes down in flames, ASH; a reference to a lady desperately in need of Aveda, 5D, Monster whose gaze remained lethal after her death, MEDUSA; and our favorite artist, 47D, Painter Matisse, HENRI.
