In the 1930s, an association of primarily Italian mafiosos and Jewish organized crime gangsters, based in Brooklyn, was formed for the purpose of putting distance between the underworld figures ordering hits, and the people carrying out those executions. This organization would come to be known as, Murder Incorporated. And this is their insanely violent story, loaded with crazy characters and their colorful nicknames.

Episode Highlights"When we laugh, when we are sitting in delight, it expands–It not only keeps us in our window of tolerance, but it expands our window of tolerance.""We also know that play is just a huge protective factor. It allows people to process their experiences, but also build skills for the future.""Play is really about doing something for the enjoyment of it, for no other reason, but for the enjoyment.""The more stress you have, the more play you need.""To hold multiple emotions that more than one thing was true... gives us tremendous capacity to be resilient and have more mental and cognitive, flexibility as well as emotional flexibility." Helpful Links and ResourcesBooks by Dr. Tina BrysonThe Way of Play (Tina's latest book!)The Whole-Brain ChildNo-Drama DisciplineThe Yes BrainThe Power of Showing UpFollow Tina Bryson:TinaBryson.comInstagramXThe Center for Connection Show NotesThe importance of play for human development across the lifespan, noting that even mammals engage in it.How play keeps us in receptive, thriving states and expands our window of tolerance for frustration and discomfort.The crucial relationship between stress and play: the more stress in our lives, the more we need play to counterbalance it.The distinction between free unstructured play for children and dyadic, child-led relational play.Addressing common parental challenges with play, such as not knowing how, finding it boring, or children's resistance.Introduction to Tina's new book, “The Way of Play,” co-authored with Georgie Wisen-Vincent, which offers seven strategies for parents to engage in child-led play for brain integration and relationship building.Defining play for adults: doing something purely for enjoyment, not productivity (e.g., pickleball, running, decorating, thrifting, watching "trashy TV").The significance of being playful in our manner – adding silliness, lightness, and sharing funny videos for shared laughter and connection.How play serves as a powerful tool for emotional regulation and processing, allowing individuals to "try on" difficult emotions in a safe, controlled context.The capacity to hold multiple emotions simultaneously (e.g., discomfort and fun), fostering resilience and mental/emotional flexibility.The impact of even "little moments" of play in creating significant connections, especially after separations.The concept of mutual delight in play and the importance of following what lights up both individuals.Tina's personal insights into her own playful activities, including her love for organizing and systematic approaches.Dr. Jill Westbrook's Key TakeawaysPlay is important throughout our life spans because the positive emotions it elicits expand what Tina calls our window of tolerance. We get better at avoiding the rigidity and chaos that can plague our relationships.The more stressful our lives are, the more we need to play.Having playfulness in life is as important as actually playing. So, adding play to your life doesn't mean that you have to schedule any particular time for play. Laughing, sharing funny videos, lightening things up a bit are all part of play.Playing with children is vital for their development, and for those of us with young people in our lives, finding time to do something fun with them helps us all thrive.Tina's new book “The Way of Play” offers practical advice and teaches strategies so that all of us can get more comfortable playing.

Do you ever feel like your phone has more control over your life than you'd like to admit? Same here. In this episode of Visibly Fit, I get super real with you about my recent 72-hour technology fast—and let me tell you, it wasn't easy.My husband nudged me into it (okay, he challenged me), and I finally said yes after realizing just how overstimulated and under-connected I was feeling, especially with God. From missing step counts and flashlight moments, to not being able to use Siri or check the weather, this fast revealed how much I've come to rely on (and even be addicted to) my devices.

Gary Morgenstein on Writing Stories That Challenge, Inspire, and Start Conversations What makes a story truly unforgettable? Is it the plot, the characters, or the way it challenges what we think we know? In this episode of Your Creative Mind, I sit down with Gary Morgenstein, a writer who doesn't just tell stories. He shakes up perspectives. From dystopian worlds that feel eerily close to home to plays that tackle love, identity, and the power of human connection, Gary's work cuts through the noise and gets to the heart of what makes us care.

It is the fodder of science fiction plots: implanting a device into the human brain... the blockbuster franchise “The Matrix” comes to mind. Here in the real world, though, it's actually happening. While tiny computers have been implanted into less than 100 brains so far, their impact has been life-changing. Brain-computer interfaces, or BCIs, have done everything from allowing increased mobility to helping with speech. Could these devices become more mainstream and help the disabled do even more in the future? Dr. Iahn Cajigas, a neurosurgeon at the University of Pennsylvania who has studied brain-computer interfaces and worked with patients using them, joins USA TODAY's The Excerpt to share his insights.Let us know what you think of this episode by sending an email to podcasts@usatoday.com.Episode Transcript available hereSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
In this powerful episode of Bleeding Daylight, host Rodney Olsen sits down with Tiffany L. Jones, author of "The Cursed Brain," a devotional helping young adults navigate mental health challenges through faith. Tiffany shares her deeply personal journey of battling depression and intrusive thoughts since childhood, growing up in a home where mental health struggles were normalized, and finding herself exhausted from trying to manage her pain alone. After years of believing she wasn't a "good enough Christian" because prayer and scripture study didn't cure her depression, Tiffany reached a breaking point and finally asked for help. Through professional therapy, medication, physical wellness, and authentic Christian community, she discovered healing and learned to fight the right enemy. Now she's dedicated to helping others know they're not too broken to heal, sharing hope through her writing, speaking, and youth ministry work. WEBLINKS Tiffany L. Jones Link Tree

Joint aches. Softer muscles. Saggy skin. Brain fog. Dealing with these not-so-fun issues in midlife? Trust me, you're not the only one. But… these changes aren't “just a part of getting older”. In this podcast, I'm joined by the brilliant Dr. Greg Kelly, Senior VP of Product Development at Qualia Life and a leader in anti-aging and cellular health, to unpack the powerful concept of cellular senescence, also known as “zombie cells.” These cells don't die when they should, sticking around to cause inflammation, slow down your metabolism, and accelerate aging in your skin, joints, muscles, and brain. The good news? You're not powerless! Dr. Kelly shares how senolytics—natural compounds that help your body clear out zombie cells—can dramatically shift how you age, supporting your body's innate ability to regenerate. If you've been feeling like your body is betraying you, this episode will bring hope and science-backed strategies to help you feel vibrant, clear-headed, and strong again. Tune in now! Gregory Kelly N.D. Dr. Gregory Kelly is a naturopathic physician, the SVP of Product Development at Qualia Life, and the author of the book Shape Shift. He was the editor of the journal Alternative Medicine Review and has been an instructor at the University of Bridgeport in the College of Naturopathic Medicine. Dr. Kelly has published hundreds of articles on natural medicine and nutrition, contributed three chapters to the Textbook of Natural Medicine, and has more than 30 journal articles indexed on PubMed. IN THIS EPISODE Enhancing longevity AND wellness in your later years What are zombie cells, and how do they contribute to aging? Main parts of the body impacted by zombie or senescent cells Senolytics and how they work against zombie cells in the body Qualia Senolytics and the science and research behind them Top non-negotiable supplements for optimal health Enhancing women's hormonal and reproductive longevity How to get Qualia Senolytic NOW at a discounted rate! QUOTES “As these zombie cells accumulate wherever in our body, our joints, our skin, our brain, our muscle tissues, our fat tissues, they cause both local problems and systemic problems.” “They scanned a whole bunch of different compounds, both plant extracts and actual medications, and came up with two that, especially when combined together, worked really well to get these zombie cells to finally go through cellular death.” “These people all had some degree of joint discomfort, and what we saw was about a 60% improvement over three dosing cycles.

It's a very mysterious world. Physicists can't figure out what matter is, nor do they know what consciousness is. Psychologists have different ideas about the brain; sociologists, different theories about how people interact; and so on and so forth. It's very, very complicated. And if you don't want to strain your brain, like people have done over many millennia, then just chant Hare Kṛṣṇa. So in one sentence, what would you tell somebody who didn't was a an acquaintance of yours, maybe a classmate or a relative who doesn't know anything about chanting Hare Kṛṣṇa in one sentence, what would you tell them was your experience this morning? ------------------------------------------------------------ To connect with His Grace Vaiśeṣika Dāsa, please visit https://www.fanthespark.com/next-steps/ask-vaisesika-dasa/ ------------------------------------------------------------ Add to your wisdom literature collection: https://iskconsv.com/book-store/ https://www.bbtacademic.com/books/ https://thefourquestionsbook.com/ ------------------------------------------------------------ Join us live on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/FanTheSpark/ Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/sound-bhakti/id1132423868 For the latest videos, subscribe https://www.youtube.com/@FanTheSpark For the latest in SoundCloud: https://soundcloud.com/fan-the-spark ------------------------------------------------------------ #spiritualawakening #soul #spiritualexperience #spiritualpurposeoflife #spiritualgrowthlessons #secretsofspirituality #vaisesikaprabhu #vaisesikadasa #vaisesikaprabhulectures #spirituality #bhaktiyoga #krishna #spiritualpurposeoflife #krishnaspirituality #spiritualusachannel #whybhaktiisimportant #whyspiritualityisimportant #vaisesika #spiritualconnection #thepowerofspiritualstudy #selfrealization #spirituallectures #spiritualstudy #spiritualquestions #spiritualquestionsanswered #trendingspiritualtopics #fanthespark #spiritualpowerofmeditation #spiritualteachersonyoutube #spiritualhabits #spiritualclarity #bhagavadgita #srimadbhagavatam #spiritualbeings #kttvg #keepthetranscendentalvibrationgoing #spiritualpurpose

Send us a textThis Isn't Just Heavy—It's Real: Why We Need More Truth and Less PerformanceWelcome to another episode of The Cosmic Valkyrie—a podcast for shapeshifters, seekers, and sovereign women awakening to their truest power. I'm your host, Lynn Louise, and today we're peeling back the curated filters to talk about something real:
En este mensaje tratamos el caso de un hombre que «descargó su conciencia» de manera anónima en nuestro sitio www.conciencia.net y nos autorizó a que lo citáramos, como sigue: «Me encuentro con mi esposa en proceso de restauración por una infidelidad que cometí con una colega de trabajo.... A la hora de elegir entre las dos, lo hice por mi esposa, y la otra chica[, por despecho,] le envió fotos y audios.... »Mi esposa y yo estamos casados por lo civil, somos padres de una niñita de siete años, y tenemos planes de casarnos por la iglesia.... Sin embargo, en estos días no puedo evitar sentirme perdido emocionalmente, muy nervioso por la decisión de casarme por la iglesia y sentir que extraño a la otra mujer.... Me imagino que, si la hubiera escogido a ella, estaría más tranquilo. ¿Qué es esto que siento, y cómo hago para vivir tranquilo?» Este es el consejo que le dio mi esposa: «Estimado amigo: »Usted dice que se siente perdido y nervioso, y quisiera más bien sentirse tranquilo. Algunos estudios científicos recientes demuestran que los sentimientos, conocidos también como las emociones, se crean en el cerebro cuando los pensamientos, las experiencias pasadas y la cultura se entrelazan.1 Por eso, para cambiar esos sentimientos creados tenemos que cambiar las partes que los crean, es decir, cambiar nuestros pensamientos sobre nosotros mismos y sobre nuestras experiencias pasadas. »Según lo que usted dice, está pensando con frecuencia en la otra mujer y la relación que tiene con ella. Usted se imagina que estaría más tranquilo si la hubiera escogido a ella en lugar de su esposa y su hija. »Hasta que no deje de cuestionar esa decisión y de tener fantasías sobre esa otra mujer y la felicidad que ella le dio, no tendrá paz alguna. Mientras que no deje de convencerse de que está perdido sin ella, tendrá cada vez más dudas acerca de su matrimonio, y esas dudas impedirán que llegue a hallar la paz. »El matrimonio es un compromiso mutuo. Cuando usted y su esposa se casaron por lo civil, usted se estaba comprometiendo con ella. Aunque no se encontraban en una iglesia, el compromiso lo hicieron en la presencia de Dios, y ante Él usted tiene la responsabilidad de cumplir esas promesas. Su Hijo Jesucristo enseñó que nadie debe separar lo que Dios ha unido.2 »Sin embargo, al parecer usted cree que casarse por la iglesia tiene más validez que casarse por lo civil. Lo cierto es que la ceremonia religiosa es igual que la ceremonia civil tanto legal como moralmente. De cualquier manera, el hombre y la mujer quedan cabalmente casados. La ceremonia en una iglesia añade una bendición formal, pero no hace que la pareja esté más casada que lo que estaba por lo civil. De modo que aun si usted y su esposa nunca llegaran a casarse por la iglesia, no dejarán de ser completamente responsables delante de Dios por el compromiso que ya hicieron.» Para leer el resto del consejo que dio Linda, mi esposa, pulse la pestaña en www.conciencia.net que dice: «Casos», y luego busque el Caso 849.

If you've ever wondered “Why can't I just follow through?”—this episode is for you. Because it's not your lack of discipline, motivation, or strategy that's holding you back. It's your beliefs. In this episode, I'm pulling back the curtain on the hidden belief systems that quietly sabotage your goals—from weight loss to parenting, from business to your walk with God. I'm sharing how our beliefs are formed, why most of us never question them, and how they affect everything from our confidence to our habits. I'll also share the story of the moment I drew a line in the sand in my own health journey—when I declared in faith, “I'm not going back,” and started walking in new belief.

What if death isn't inevitable but a solvable problem? This episode explores how biohacking is reshaping our understanding of mortality, legacy, and the limits of human performance. You'll learn why some of today's top thinkers are treating longevity as both a science and a spiritual movement, and how this shift affects your brain, your mitochondria, and your entire approach to life. Watch this episode on YouTube for the full video experience: https://www.youtube.com/@DaveAspreyBPR Host Dave Asprey sits down with philosopher and best-selling author Dr. Stephen Cave, Director of the Institute for Technology and Humanity at the University of Cambridge.

Together, they unpack the four universal immortality narratives, the dangers of mind uploading, and why AI might become humanity's next god or destroyer. You'll discover how legacy, ego, functional medicine, and even fasting and ketosis play into our fear of death. The conversation also dives into the deeper psychological and societal consequences of radical life extension, and what happens when biohacking crosses into belief.

Send us a textListen. If you think this episode is just for parents of teenagers, I need you to hold up. Because what Shannon Simmons and I dig into here isn't just about managing your kid's allowance—it's about navigating a totally different financial universe than the one we grew up in.I invited Shannon back on the pod because her last episode was a fan fave, and now she's got a new book that I devoured in 24 hours. It's called Making Bank: Money Skills for Real Life and it's basically financial literacy for teens—but don't get it twisted. This is not some dry “save your pennies” snoozefest. It's about understanding the real financial landscape your kids (and let's be real, you) are living in.We talk about how today's teens have never even touched money—like, cash—because everything is tap, tap, tap on a phone. Combine that with Finfluencers on TikTok, access to investment platforms at 18, and insane social pressure from the Sephora skincare aisle, and you've got a perfect storm of confusion, shame, and money mistakes waiting to happen. Shannon breaks down how to actually talk to your kids about money, how to let go of control without losing your mind, and how to set boundaries that don't involve micromanaging their bank account like a total psycho (guilty ✋).And hey—if you don't have teens? You still need to hear this. Because we're all unlearning money shame and trying to build a better financial foundation. This episode is warm, smart, and a little spicy (as always). You're gonna want to listen twice.What's Inside: • Why money is a whole different ballgame for Gen Z (and how their brains are wired for danger) • How Finfluencers are actually shaping teen money habits (not always a bad thing!) • The emotional side of money—shame, fear, and passing down your own baggage • Why buying lunch at the cafeteria might be a non-negotiable life skill (no, really)Let's be real—What does “financially thriving” look like to you? Is it your kid building a bomb-proof money mindset? Is it not flinching when they ask for $20 for TikTok face serum? Is it you not spiraling every time they blow it all on sushi and bubble tea? Look, it's possible. That kind of emotional and financial peace? That's rich.I brought Shannon back on the pod because I want that for you—and for your teens. So tell me: what's your biggest WTF when it comes to kids and money? Come chat with me on Instagram. I need to know I'm not the only one who's been Oliver's dad.
In this powerful episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Avik Chakraborty sits down with Barbara Gustavson, a brain health educator and neuroscience-informed leadership coach. Together, they explore what it truly means to reset your thinking in a high-stress world. Barbara shares real-life stories, including her own caregiving journey, and introduces a practical REGROUP framework for calming the nervous system, reclaiming energy, and leading from alignment. This conversation is a must-listen for leaders, caregivers, and anyone ready to shift from survival to sustainable strength—one breath at a time. About the Guest:Barbara Gustavson is a leadership coach and brain health educator who guides professionals through burnout recovery and mental reset using neuroscience-backed tools. With personal experience as a long-term caregiver, she now teaches others how to recognize early signs of nervous system overload and reconnect with resilience using her unique REGROUP framework. Her work emphasizes the importance of micro-resets, self-leadership, and prioritizing brain health. Key Takeaways: Burnout often starts with subtle signs—like sleep disruption, brain fog, and feeling the need to do it all. Barbara's “REGROUP” method helps you regulate your nervous system, identify energy drains, and reconnect with your inner resilience. Small shifts like breathwork or reframing negative thoughts can lead to big changes in mental clarity and emotional stability. Resilience isn't about pushing harder—it's about aligning with your values, practicing margin, and honoring your energy. Neuroplasticity proves the brain can heal. Gentle, consistent tools work better than massive overhauls.

Let's talk about revenge. Not the juicy, action-movie kind with flaming cars and dramatic showdowns, but the kind that quietly simmers in your brain long after someone cuts you off in traffic or sends a snarky email. According to Yale psychiatry lecturer and lawyer James Kimmel, revenge isn't just an emotion. It's an addiction. A hit of dopamine here, a rumination there, and suddenly we're hooked on the fantasy of payback. But what if we could quit cold turkey? In his new book, The Science of Revenge, James explains how to rewire our minds, embrace forgiveness, and break free from the cycles of grievance that keep us stuck.
