In this episode, Sam invites listeners into a practice inspired by her women's circle: embracing the beauty of the present moment.

I see it everywhere that people say we will accomplish something like the Brexit and even don't know how to do it!It is common and as stupid as possible to announce your forecasted results… Because you do have all the odds (including God, Allah doesn't like bragging or proud people) against yourself… And you depend on so many things, people,… that you don't have under your control. If I say, I will finish my work until a particular day. Then that is okay! If I work together with a team, I have to estimate more time. Because I can't estimate so easy the manpower… But if I say: “I finish the job, and then I will have huge success.” I am dam wrong!Because I can't forecast it precisely what will happen after my job is done …. Still, I can image my desired success, and I don't need to tell it! My goals are my secret. Because I want providence or that God supports me. Does it make sense? For instance, when I hear in a movie: “I will love you forever…” That is so disgusting, dishonest,…because nobody can know how a relationship will work out in the future. If you can't keep your promise, it looks really shabby… Then you become a guy who can't keep a promise… Your friends can't respect you anymore…. When I recognized as a kid that my parents can't keep their promise, I got frustrated to have such lousy parents, and I lost all of my respect!!! And so are children, they always check their parents… and it is disgusting to break your promise that you have given your kids. Because the kids admire you and they lose all of their confidence in you when you break your commitment!What is if you say: “I will try my best… And if I forget my best intention, please mention it.”Humbleness attracts good outcome… Bragging attracts bad outcome!!! And bragging is provoking to sabotage your outcome. I had failed even when everything looked great, and I accomplished it, even everything and every person were against it… Remember always, we don't have anything under our control. I have read on a signboard of a farmer's house: “Everything depends on God's blessing.”Because the farmer knows that he has to do the work and can't determine the weather, the pest that can ruin his crops, the selling price... My Video: Don't announce your success until you own it. https://youtu.be/xOpNwZkf48oMy Audio: https://divinesuccess.net/wp-content/uploads/2021/Podcast.B/Don't-announce-your-success-until-you-own-it..mp3
Hi there! Feel free to drop us a text if you enjoy the episode.In this episode of the New England Endurance podcast, hosts Art Trapotsis and Eric Schenker sit down with Lisa McCoy, event director of the iconic Mount Washington Auto Road Bicycle Hillclimb (MWARBH). Known affectionately as “The Rockpile,” this race challenges cyclists with 7.6 miles of relentless climbing, an average grade of 12%, and the ever-unpredictable weather of Mount Washington.Lisa shares her story—from her role as co-owner of the International Mountain Climbing School to managing one of the toughest uphill races in the world. The discussion dives into the race's evolution, the mission of the Tin Mountain Conservation Center, and the enduring spirit of the New England endurance community.Whether you're a veteran of the climb or considering your first ascent, Lisa offers behind-the-scenes insights, preparation tips, and why so many riders keep coming back year after year.Key Takeaways:The course is brutally steep, with no flat sections and a punishing 22% grade at the summit.Lisa McCoy has been directing the event since 2017 and is deeply involved in the outdoor community.The Auto Road was fully unpaved until the 1970s; it's now fully paved, but just as tough.Riders must be self-supported—no aid stations and no e-bikes allowed during the race.All proceeds benefit the Tin Mountain Conservation Center, a key player in local environmental education.The finish line reward? Bragging rights, breathtaking views, and a coveted MWARBH finisher's blanket.The event consistently draws 500–600 riders, showcasing the grit and camaraderie of New England's endurance athletes.Art & Eric embark on a journey to showcase and celebrate the endurance sports community in New England.

We’re back on July 21, betch... until then, enjoy the chaos! Today we went deep on povo brags: walk-in pantries, billionaire jumbotrons, and humble flexes. Then the kids came in hot with their brutal honesty… ever been called Miss Piggy mid-flight? We spun the Wednesday Wheel and ended up in a Google-Off about the Pope. And finally, we cried (again) over the celeb break-ups that hurt us the most... Katy and Orlando, we’re looking at you.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Sermon for the Fourth Sunday after Pentecost
Idea: A comedy contest where the contestants comedically brag about themselves instead of roasting an opponent. Also: avoiding downsides of roasts, including deeply hurting someone's feelings and having to do research about an opponent before the show; the two rules of "smug of war"; a concept of a "smug of war" where topics to brag about are provided to the contestants before the show (so the jokes are better and it doesn't feel like an improv game); why AI might be useful for writing jokes specifically for this show Jeff Teed (instagram.com/jeffteed23 instagram.com/say_what_open_mic_at_hearsay) Jack Cuncannan (instagram.com/jackc_comedy) Tom Walma (https://creativitywasted.com/creativitywasted twitch.tv/gameymcfitness) This podcast is part of Planet Ant Podcasts (https://planetant.com) This podcast is powered by Pinecast.

This week on Two Parents & A Podcast — we're still in a hotel (shoutout to The LINE Austin for really making this the SUITE life of Bubber), and no, the hardwood floors are still NOT done. We filmed this one first thing in the morning before heading out for the birthday/Fourth of July trip (if you didn't see on IG — we made our flight, but only managed to check 2 out of 3 bags in time hahaha). This week, we went to our first “kids' birthday party” (spoiler: we loved it). But apparently, we're going to get sick of them? We break down how we think kids' birthday parties work—or maybe how they SHOULD work. Plus, at this party, the most embarrassing moment in recent memory happened to me (you'll have to listen to find out what it was). And we celebrate a little “bragging parent” moment—because sometimes it's okay to celebrate the wins. We also talk about the power of perspective, pitch a new dating app idea, and share our favorite Fourth of July memories (cue Harrison saying “bro, it was like a movie”). We love you guys and hope you get to enjoy some time off this holiday weekend! ❤️ Timestamps: 00:00:00 Welcome back to Two Parents & A Podcast! 00:02:15 Birthday/Fourth of July trip to California 00:06:00 It's OK to do a “parent brag” sometimes (CELEBRATE!) 00:13:52 Alex's FAIL of the week 00:21:34 Our thoughts on kids' birthday parties 00:29:00 The power of perspective 00:32:30 A new idea for a dating app 00:36:24 Bick of the Week: Saving contacts in your phone 00:39:40 Our favorite Fourth of July memories 00:43:08 LOVE YOU GUYS! #twoparentsandapod ---------------------------------------------------------------- Thank you to our sponsors this week: Dipsea - Right now, you can get a 30-day free trial PLUS 25% off your annual subscription when you go to https://www.DipseaStories.com/TWOPARENTS Cleveland Kitchen - Want to make gut health easy and delicious?

There has been a trend of late on social media. Generation Z has been “trauma bragging.” A chapter-a-day podcast from Philippians 1. The text version may always be found and shared at tomvanderwell.com.
At the start of every year the internet is rife with people sharing their goal to read 50 books that year. Nothing wrong with reading more. An admirable goal for sure. Thing is – 50 books is not the flex they think it is. In fact, it says more about their privilege than their love of reading. I feel very strongly about this – so for the first time ever instead of riling up a guest to share their Unpopular Opinion… I'm sharing one of my own. Ably assisted by the delight that is Ron Tester - he's in the ‘hold my beer' role for this one – we debate if setting arbitrary reading goals is helpful or simply performative. We unpack why this annoys me so much, how people waste time on vanity metrics + how to build a reading habit that works for you. Look for more Unpopular Opinions. They're always fun to listen to.

Cold OpenI just heard the duly-elected President of these United States... Donald J. Trump... brag about dropping the atom bomb. On Hiroshima.My god.Steven Colbert? Jon Stewart...?Once, these guys were subversive... were daring. But...But with troops still in the California streets and missiles in Mid-Eastern air...Haven't comedians become nauseatingly... tone dead?When the Comedy stops being funny…We're in deep shit. Especially anybody different. Like, say… autistics..[music theme]IntroYou're listening to Trigger Warnings, episode 2 … a new project of AutisticAF Out Loud podcast.I'm Johnny Profane. Your fiercely divergent guide to what's actually happening in the news.Gimme 10 minutes? I'll give you my neurodivergent world.Today: “Not Everything's Funny: Colbert, Trump .. & Hiroshima.” Military deployments in two cities, Constitutional challenges mounting, and one burning question: Are we witnessing democratic norms under assault in real time? And trying to just laugh it off?For an ever deeper dive, I've included footnotes and readings in the subStack.Content Note: civil unrest, military deployment, law enforcement actions, concerns about democratic institutions + experiences & opinions of one autistic voice... in my 70s.[music theme]ShowAct 1: The Unprecedented BreakI just heard the duly-elected President of these United States... Donald J. Trump... brag about dropping the atom bomb. On Hiroshima.[1]At a NATO summit.In front of the world.My god.Let me tell you what just happened. Because the News? They aren't "reporting" just how fucked up this really is.[music freedom, 8 bars]No President Has Ever Done ThisSince the guy who dropped those bombs in 1945…Harry Truman…stopped defending his decision…cuz he stopped being president in 1952.No American president since… has dared… brag about Hiroshima. Or Nagasaki.[2]Not one.You know why? Because even the worst of them understood something. Those bombs killed 200,000 people.[3] Mostly civilians. Women. Children. Grandparents.Even Eisenhower… the guy American history class sayswon World War II… Even he said the bombing "never ceased troubling me." He called it completely unnecessary.[4]Obama visited Hiroshima in 2016.[5] He didn't apologize. But he didn't brag either.Reagan talked about nuclear weapons. But he said "a nuclear war can never be won."[6]Every president since Truman understood this was serious shit. Sacred ground. You don't joke around about vaporizing cities.Not Trump.He's bragging. Comparing his conventional strikes to atomic bombs. Like it's a video game."We have the best nuclear technology," he said. "The best equipment in the world."Like… nuclear weapons were toys.[music]Trump Just Shattered “Normal”Yesterday at the NATO summit in The Hague, Trump compared his strikes on Iran to Hiroshima.His exact words: "I don't want to use an example of Hiroshima. I don't want to use the example of Nagasaki, that was essentially the same thing. That ended that war, this ended this war."[7]He was bragging. Bragging about nuclear destruction. Like a fucking business deal."That hit ended the war," he said. Chest puffed out. Proud as hell.This is what we've come to. The President casually referencing the incineration of 200,000 humans… as a model for current policy.At an international summit.On camera.With full makeup.[music 8 bars, freedom]You know social media… if you take a sec to hit subscribe, like, share? A lot more people will check it out. Just one click… and you do a lotta good.[music, freedom]The Comedy ProblemHow are we supposed to respond? Where's the outrage?In other words, where are the comedians? Most Gen Z-ers and younger get their news from late night comedy shows.[8]Colbert will try out a "new" joke tonight. Stewart will do his smirk. They'll treat this like another Trump gaffe they can mine for laughs.[9]But it's not funny anymore.Once, these guys were subversive... were daring. But...Haven't they become nauseatingly... tone dead?You can't satirize someone who's already become a parody of human decency. Someone the scriptures of all major religions would label simply… evil?Bragging about mass murder... what the fuck is left to mock?Comedy works when there's a shared understanding of normal. When people have shame. When some lines… you just don't cross.But Trump crossed the biggest. With a smile. Not one objection from a room full of reporters. Just brief sneers from a TV full of comedians.So, Canary-in-the-coal-mine time….When the Comedy stops being funny…We're in deep shit. Especially anyone different. Like, say… autistics…[music]Why This MattersThis isn't about politics. Left or right.This is about what kind of country we are.For 80 years, American presidents understood that Hiroshima was different. Special. Unspeakable.[10]They might defend it…quickly, quietly. Say, “It saved lives.” Then quickly, move on.They understood Power comes with burdens… responsibility, accountability, humanity. That killing 200,000 people isn't something you do a victory spike over.Trump doesn't understand that weight.Or worse... he doesn't care.Ya, know, worse yet? Maybe he does care. About the bullying power that his brutish remarks burn into the world's memory.[music]Act 2: When Institutions FailWith troops still in the California streets, missiles in Mid-Eastern skies… and a Bully-in-Chief in the pulpit…Comedy… and art… fall silent.Corporate News? Well it talks… too much. But it just isn't saying anything. They don't cover reality anymore. They've been cowed into repeating Administration lies… through shell-shocked faces.When the President of the United States casually references nuclear genocide... and we fear he might just use them sometime …within the next two weeks…like all of his jokes…that become threats…that become promises kept to his base…Our cultural tools break down.We don't have frameworks for this.We have jokes for corrupt politicians. For liars. For cheaters. That subversive humor can shed a light into Democratic or Republican darkness. Through a shared giggle.But jokes about dropping nukes?They're just distractions. Like… witty comebacks, really killer memes, and the occasional truly thoughtful opinion piece in the New York Times.[music]What We're Really FacingThis is what authoritarianism starts like.[11] Not jackboots and death squads.Just a man who thinks mass murder… is something to celebrate. A man who doesn't understand why some folks might find that disturbing.The scariest part? He said this at NATO. To our allies.Heard round the world. By any country that remembers World War II. What nuclear weapons actually do.Like say, Japan.[music]Are the Democrats' the Alternative?The political opposition? They're not exactly rising to the moment. What the fuck are Democrats doing?[12]Running the same playbook they've used since Hillary lost."We're the adults in the room.""At least we're not Trump. Vote for us because we're not insane.""You just wait for the midterms… oh, boy.

No subsequent president has publicly celebrated or bragged about the atomic bombings until Trump's 2025 remarks.https://www.nps.gov/articles/trumanatomicbomb.htm[3]: Death toll estimates for the atomic bombings vary significantly. The Manhattan Engineer District initially estimated 105,000 total deaths (66,000 in Hiroshima, 39,000 in Nagasaki) by end of 1945. The International Campaign to Abolish Nuclear Weapons estimates 140,000 in Hiroshima and 74,000 in Nagasaki by end of 1945. Methodological challenges include destroyed records, uncertain pre-bombing populations, and radiation-related deaths over time.https://www.atomicarchive.com/resources/documents/med/med_chp10.html[4]: Eisenhower expressed his "grave misgivings" about the atomic bombing in his memoir, stating he believed "Japan was already defeated and that dropping the bomb was completely unnecessary." He also noted his concern that the U.S. "should avoid shocking world opinion by the use of a weapon whose employment was, I thought, no longer mandatory as a measure to save American lives."https://www.aei.org/op-eds/japan-was-already-defeated-the-case-against-the-nuclear-bomb-and-for-basic-morality/Critics note this was a post-war reflection written nearly two decades later, not a contemporaneous military assessment.[5]: Obama visited Hiroshima in May 2016, becoming the first sitting U.S. president to do so. He spoke of the "silent cry" of victims and called for nuclear disarmament while carefully avoiding any apology, stating: "We stand here in the middle of this city and force ourselves to imagine the moment the bomb fell... we listen to a silent cry".https://abc3340.com/news/nation-world/obama-at-hiroshima-death-fell-from-the-sky-05-27-2016-103848173[6]: Reagan's famous statement "A nuclear war cannot be won and must never be fought" was delivered in his 1984 State of the Union address, reflecting his commitment to nuclear deterrence while pursuing arms reduction with the Soviet Union.[7]: Trump's exact words at the NATO summit on June 25, 2025: "I don't want to use an example of Hiroshima. I don't want to use an example of Nagasaki, but that was essentially the same thing that ended that war, this ended this war"[4].https://www.middleeasteye.net/news/hit-ended-war-trump-likens-iran-strikes-hiroshima-bombinghttps://cbs4local.com/news/nation-world/president-donald-trump-compares-iran-strikes-to-hiroshima-bombing-nagasaki-claims-successful-end-to-conflict-nato-summit-netherlands-secretary-general-mark-rutte-operation-midnight-hammerThis represents the first time a U.S. president has compared current military actions to the atomic bombings in a celebratory manner.[8]: Research indicates late-night political comedy shows serve as significant news sources, particularly for younger demographics. "The Late Show with Stephen Colbert" averaged 8.7% viewership share in 2024, reaching approximately 281,000 viewers in the 18-49 demographic nightly[15][16].https://screenrant.com/stephen-colbert-ratings-late-show-2024-explained/https://screenrant.com/stephen-colbert-ratings-late-show-2024-explained/ Studies suggest these programs have the most impact on politically inattentive audiences who learn about politics inadvertently through satirical content.[9]: Following Trump's Iran strikes, Colbert addressed the actions through his typical comedic framework, with segments like "Trump's Weird Iran War Speech" and jokes about intelligence reports contradicting Trump's claims of "obliteration." Colbert quipped "Oops-a-nuke-y" regarding reports that Iran's nuclear capabilities remained largely intact.https://www.tvinsider.com/1199026/stephen-colbert-trump-f-bomb-rant-monologue-video/[10]: The concept of a "nuclear taboo"—an international norm against the use of nuclear weapons—has been maintained since 1945. Political scientist Nina Tannenwald defines this as "a de facto prohibition against the first use of nuclear weapons" that creates a shared understanding of the illegitimacy and immorality of nuclear weapons use[18].https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nuclear_tabooTrump's comparison breaks this longstanding presidential restraint.[11]: Harvard political scientists Steven Levitsky and Daniel Ziblatt identify four markers of authoritarian risk: rejecting democratic rules, denying opponent legitimacy, tolerating violence, and curtailing civil liberties. They argue Trump is the first U.S. politician since the Civil War to meet all four criteria19.https://www.newsweek.com/harvard-political-science-professor-donald-trump-authoritarian-how-democracy-778425Constitutional scholar Elaine Scarry argues nuclear weapons create "thermonuclear monarchy" by concentrating unprecedented destructive power in executive hands, fundamentally undermining democratic governance.https://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/thermonuclear-monarchy-elaine-scarry/1111087819https://futureoflife.org/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/Elaine_Scarry_MIT_April2.pdf[12]: Democratic responses to Trump's Iran strikes showed internal divisions. House No. 2 Democrat Katherine Clark called the strikes "unauthorized & unconstitutional," while Senator Chris van Hollen argued they violated congressional war powers. However, critics note Democratic presidents have similarly bypassed Congress for military actions, weakening their constitutional arguments[22][23].https://www.msnbc.com/opinion/msnbc-opinion/us-bombs-iran-attacks-trump-constitution-rcna214580https://www.cnn.com/2025/06/23/politics/trump-iran-legal-constitutional-article-1-article-2 This is a public episode.
