In 1991, a high-profile and controversial Supreme Court confirmation hearing led Carol Moseley Braun to run for the U.S. Senate. “The good people of Illinois saw fit to elect me,” Moseley Braun says. That's when she became the first Black woman to serve in the upper chamber. At the same time, Braun was the first woman senator to represent the state of Illinois in Congress. Braun details her childhood, that journey to Congress and the international success that would follow in a new memoir, “Trailblazer: Perseverance in Life and Politics.” Reset sits down with Carol Moseley Braun to learn more about her Chicago upbringing and storied career.

It was an amazing day for me when Johnny Braun sent me a DM on Instagram. It was short, it was succinct, and it made me want to talk to him. Here's what he said: “Hey there Dave, if you're looking for another person to be on your podcast, I'd like to be on an episode. I experienced childhood sexual abuse.” That was it…that's what started an amazing conversation, and my decision to have him as a guest today. I could go on and on about how amazing I know Johnny is. But I think he would rather I tell you about what I know about male sexual assault as a “thing” that needs to be talked about more; because Johnny agrees with me: we need to normalize this conversation. So, here's my short version of what needs to be said, and read, and heard, about male sexual assault and rape: Sexual assault is often framed in most public discourse as an experience primarily affecting women, which is good and appropriate in a certain lens. But the reality is that men and boys are also profoundly impacted by these crimes—unfortunately, their stories remain drastically underreported and underrecognized. Here's a stat that should shock you: according to the Rape, Abuse & Incest National Network (RAINN), approximately 1 in 6 men in the United States have experienced some form of sexual assault in their lifetime. While female victims often receive the bulk of media attention and resources, male survivors face unique challenges, including societal stigma, shame, and cultural expectations about masculinity that can discourage reporting or seeking help. Johnny knows this personally…all too well. You'll hear him talk about it. When we focus specifically on childhood sexual assault, the numbers are equally sobering…or better put: shocking. Studies indicate that roughly 1 in 6 boys will experience sexual abuse before the age of 18. These assaults frequently occur in settings where trust is expected—by family members, coaches, teachers, or other authority figures—and often go unreported for years. Male survivors of childhood sexual abuse are at increased risk of long-term emotional, psychological, and physical consequences, including depression, anxiety, post-traumatic stress, substance misuse, and difficulties with relationships and sexual identity. All of which, again, Johnny talks about. Despite these alarming statistics, male victims—especially boys—remain largely invisible in conversations about sexual violence. Cultural myths that men cannot be victims, or that male survivors should “tough it out,” do nothing to help, but actually add to the systemic underreporting dilemma. Data from the National Sexual Violence Resource Center shows that only about 1 in 10 male survivors report their assault to law enforcement, compared with 1 in 3 female survivors. This silence is not a reflection of their experiences being less real or less impactful—it is a reflection of societal barriers that must be dismantled. By acknowledging, amplifying, and normalizing male survivors' voices, we can create a safer, more trauma-informed space where all survivors—regardless of gender—are believed, supported, and empowered to heal. And that's another step toward crushing rape culture in our society. Johnny wants his story to be a part of that step. Don't skip this episode. Thank you, Johnny, for your strength in reaching out to me, and for being a guest with me on this show.

In this Season 14 review (Episode 368), Andrea Samadi revisits key clips from her original interview with Bob Proctor (Episode 66), exploring how frequencies, imagination, and intuition shape our goals and results. We will cover: Tip #1: How to Understand Frequencies and Levels of Vibration Tip #2: You've Got to Follow Your Heart Tip #3: Your External Environment Reflects Your Internal Thoughts and Mental State Three takeaways: use your imagination to move to the vibration of your goal; follow your heart as an inner compass; and remember your external environment reflects your internal thoughts and beliefs. Welcome back to SEASON 14 of The Neuroscience Meets Social and Emotional Learning Podcast, where we connect the science-based evidence behind social and emotional learning and emotional intelligence training for improved well-being, achievement, productivity and results—using what I saw as the missing link (since we weren't taught this when we were growing up in school), the application of practical neuroscience. I'm Andrea Samadi, and seven years ago, launched this podcast with a question I had never truly asked myself before: (and that is) If productivity and results matter to us—and they do now more than ever—how exactly are we using our brain to make them happen? Most of us were never taught how to apply neuroscience to improve productivity, results, or well-being. About a decade ago, I became fascinated by the mind-brain-results connection—and how science can be applied to our everyday lives. That's why I've made it my mission to bring you the world's top experts—so together, we can explore the intersection of science and social-emotional learning. We'll break down complex ideas and turn them into practical strategies we can use every day for predictable, science-backed results. For today's Episode 368, we're going back to Episode 66[i] for PART 3 of our review with the late Bob Proctor—the first person who challenged me to think. We covered in PART 1 EP 366[ii]: ✔ Top Lesson from Episode 66 – Where we refined the question: “What do you really want to do with your life?” hoping that midway through 2025, we can refine our goals, and see if we are on track. ✔ Sage Advice Tip #1: “We have been given the mental faculties to create our own environment. “We explored how to go beyond our five senses and tap into the six higher faculties of our mind (further developing our reason, intuition, perception, will, memory and imagination.” ✔ Sage Advice Tip #2: “There's only one mind.” We looked at how our actions matter because we are all deeply connected. ✔ Sage Advice Tip#3: “We are a soul—we don't have one.” We reflected on the perfection within each of us, and how this perfection continually drives us toward bigger and better possibilities. We covered in PART 2 EP 367[iii]: Sage Tip #4: “If we want to improve our RESULTS, we must focus on the six faculties of our mind—reason, intuition, perception, will, memory, and imagination.”The key is to choose one of these faculties and dedicate time to studying and applying each one until you see real results from your deeper understanding. Sage Tip #5: “Goals are not set to get; they are set to grow.” Reminding us that sometimes goals don't unfold the way we expect, and that's okay—as long as we keep moving forward and growing. To do this, we must keep studying, learning about ourselves, clarifying what we truly want, and seeking specialized knowledge in our field from those who have gone before us. Today, EP 368, PART 3 VIDEO 1 Click Here to Watch Watch video clip 1 with the link in the show notes. Bob begins this clip by talking about The Law of Vibration and why it's so important to understand how frequencies work. Many of us have heard of this law by now, especially since the movie, The Secret by Rhonda Byrne brought it into the mainstream. But my first introduction to understanding frequencies was back in the late 1990s, when I was teaching in the classroom and picked up Bob Proctor's book You Were Born Rich.[iv] I still remember hiding the book behind my binder during a staff meeting at the Toronto District School Board—I couldn't put it down until I'd finished it. That book changed the way I looked at everything. Suddenly, I began to see new possibilities in areas where I might have once been closed off. What captivated me wasn't Chapter 1, Me and Money, or even Chapter 2, How Much is Enough. It wasn't about money for me. What drew me in was Chapter 6—The Law of Vibration and Attraction. In that chapter, Bob shared what he had learned from the late Dr. Wernher von Braun, covering everything from science and religion, to the cosmos, to rates of vibration and frequency. That chapter expanded my mind—it even touched on the connection between the brain and body, a topic that would fascinate me even more 25 years later. It also revealed how powerful positive thinking can be for our health and wellness, while introducing the foundational Laws of Success. I wanted to learn more, so every time Bob held a seminar, I made sure to attend. From spending time in his offices, and sitting in these classes, I began to pick up how to promote these seminars to others, that started with bringing something new home to study each night. Eventually, I started talking to seminar attendees on the phone, explaining Bob's upcoming seminars. On these calls, I discovered what other people were studying. They would ask me, “Who else are you learning from?” and at first, I honestly didn't know anyone else teaching this material. But I listened carefully, wrote down the names they mentioned, and searched for their books at the library—this was long before we could just go online and find everything instantly. Sometimes people would drop off other programs for Bob to review. I remember one day, someone left a cassette tape set at the office and asked me to pass it along to him. Curious, I opened the package and saw the title: “Special Subjects Vol. 1”[v] by Abraham-Hicks, covering The Law of Attraction. I realized that, while not many people knew about this material, those who did were using it to achieve incredible things. On the way to Bob's house that evening, I couldn't resist. I slipped one of the tapes into my car stereo and listened as I drove. When Bob opened the door, the first thing he asked me was, “Did you listen to one of them?” I was stunned—how could he possibly know? I admitted I had and said, “Yes, and the program is really good.” I wasn't sure if I'd get in trouble for listening first, but instead, he later handed the tapes over to me to keep. I must have listened to them more than 100 times. That program led me to Abraham-Hicks' books, audio programs, and seminars—where I met people from all walks of life: pro athletes fine-tuning their mindset, business leaders sharpening their edge, and everyday people like me, hungry to learn and grow. Those cassette tapes opened a door. Each word studied brought me back to that time when I was just beginning to understand this material—discovering a whole world of wisdom waiting to be explored. I will be sure to link other places you can go to learn this topic, if you would like to dive deeper. What helped me the most, was when I saw an image describing these frequencies, or levels of vibration. We've looked at and explored this visual often on this podcast, that matches how Bob explains goals and frequency on the clip we selected. The image shows the Goal (target) at a higher level (the star), with lines representing different frequencies or levels of vibration. The word “DECISION” marks the point where you shift to a higher level to match the frequency of your goal. We learned in this clip that “when we image a goal, what we've done is take our mind off on a trip. And we've gone to a new frequency, beyond where we are living.” We learned that it is our imagination that moves us out of our current state of awareness (or vibration) using the “screen of our mind”—the place where we see and create new possibilities before they exist physically. This “place” isn't physical. It's the inner screen of our mind, the same concept explained in The Silva Method[vi], where you consciously project images, ideas, and goals in mental pictures. That's where creation begins—before it's expressed in the outside world. I've often wondered, “How exactly do we shift to a new level of vibration?” It's not something that's easy to explain until we've experienced it ourselves. Looking back, the path seems clear—just as Steve Jobs once said, “we can only connect the dots backwards.” But moving forward, the process feels less obvious. We move to a new vibration when we're in harmony with what we truly want. A powerful example of this is being in love—when we resonate deeply with someone, we're on the same frequency. At times, this connection runs so deep that we can almost sense each other's thoughts (a kind of telepathic communication). When we share the same frequency, it feels like magic unfolds. The same principle applies to our goals. Once you've decided what you want—whether it's a career change, a relationship, or a new opportunity—you must connect your heart to it. Feel the resonance, and then use your imagination to paint the picture on the screen of your mind. With practice, patience, and belief, you'll one day look back and see there were no limits to what you could achieve. Until that moment comes, keep moving forward, keep growing, and keep reaching for the stars, moving up those levels of vibration or frequency. Sage Tip #1: How to Understand Frequencies and Levels of Vibration “When we image a goal (on the screen of our mind, something that we resonate with) we take our mind on a trip and what we've actually done is gone to a new frequency. We've used our imagination to get there.” If we can see it in our mind, with our imagination, we can hold it in our hand. VIDEO 2 Click Here to Watch Watch video clip 2 with the link in the show notes. There were two important lessons from this clip. Sage Tip #2: You've Got to Follow Your Heart. According to Bob, listening to your "heart" means trusting your intuition and emotional mind to connect with the divine side of yourself. He explained that this "heart" is not the physical organ but the subjective, feeling side of your mind that holds your deepest desires. I remember after the interview, (back in June 2020) I wrote this on my wall, (you've got to follow your heart) and have used this as a sense of guidance ever since. We learned in this clip that “if you follow your heart you'll never make a mistake, for as long as you live.” Do you listen to your heart? It's this tip that brings us back to understanding frequencies, because when we are listening to our heart, we are paying attention to what we are in resonance with. Our deepest desires that will take us to whatever it is that we REALLY want to do with our life. All of these tips blend, and tie in together, like the colors of the rainbow. Sage Tip #3: Your External Environment Reflects Your Internal Thoughts and Mental State If we don't like what's happening in our external world—our job, our results, our relationships, or any part of our life we've created—we must first look within. Our outer circumstances mirror the thoughts and beliefs we hold inside. In As a Man Thinketh, James Allen reminds us of the power of our mindset: "Mind is the Master power that molds and makes, And Man is Mind, and evermore he takes The tool of Thought, and, shaping what he wills, Brings forth a thousand joys, a thousand ills— (depending on what we are thinking). He thinks in secret, and it comes to pass: Environment is but his looking-glass." The phrase “environment is but his looking-glass” means that your external environment is simply a reflection of your internal thoughts and mental state. The world you experience is showing you what's happening in your mind. REVIEW AND CONCLUSION To wrap up this week's Episode 368, PART 3—where we revisited two powerful clips from Episode 66, our interview with Bob Proctor—where we explored three key takeaways: Sage Tip #1: Understanding Frequencies and Levels of Vibration We discovered that there are infinite levels of vibration, and when we align ourselves with the frequency of what we truly want, magic happens. This is how we become one with our goal. There are no limits—only the challenge of using our imagination to bridge the gap between where we are now and where we want to be. Sage Tip #2: Follow Your Heart Listening to your heart means trusting your intuition and emotional guidance to connect with the divine side of yourself. Your heart can serve as a powerful compass to guide you toward the right decisions and opportunities in life. Sage Tip #3: Your External Environment Reflects Your Internal World If we don't like what's happening in our external world—whether it's in our job, relationships, results, or any area of life—we must first look inward. Our circumstances mirror the beliefs and thoughts we hold within. As James Allen reminds us in As a Man Thinketh: our outer world is always a reflection of our inner state. With that thought, I will close out our 3 PART review of EP 66, and hope that calling out these tips that I thought were important will help us all to sharpen our saw, and find ways that we can all move confidently in the direction of whatever it is that we are working on this year, taking us to greater heights. I'll see you next week as we revisit EP 98[vii] with Dr. Dawson Church, an award-winning science writer who blends cutting-edge neuroscience with inspiring stories of people who have experienced brain change firsthand. Neural plasticity—the discovery that the brain is capable of rewiring itself—is now widely accepted. What's less understood is just how rapidly these changes can occur, how profound they can be, and the degree of control each of us has over reshaping our thinking. My goal is that we build on what we uncovered in our review of EP 66—refining the question of what it is we truly want—and then explore how to direct our thoughts inward to create lasting change with our goals and results.

Justin Bieber BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.Justin Bieber has had a notably eventful and revealing week with several newsworthy developments across music, business, and his personal life. The most headline-grabbing moment is the apparent resolution of his long-standing financial dispute with former manager Scooter Braun. According to reports from People and TMZ, Justin has agreed to pay Braun and Hybe $31.5 million, settling costs related to the early cancellation of his Justice Tour back in 2022. The tour cancellation was driven by health issues, and the payment includes $26 million he was ordered to repay after Aeg paid him a substantial advance which now needs reimbursing. This move closes a major chapter in Bieber's business affairs and could impact his future management and touring prospects.On the music front, Bieber's new album “SWAG,” released July 10, continues to generate buzz. Critics at The Emory Wheel praise its vulnerable songwriting and production, noting that the album's central theme is love, specifically his relationship with wife Hailey Bieber. Tracks like “DAISIES” and “Therapy Session” have quickly become fan favorites for both their emotional resonance and catchy beats, with “DAISIES” debuting at number two on the Billboard Hot 100. Bieber has spoken candidly about his mental health struggles through the album and social media, confirming that creating and sharing music helps him maintain stability during periods of anxiety.Socially, Bieber maintains a low public profile, but recently made several appearances in New York, sparking concern among fans about his wellbeing. According to The Hollywood Gossip and IMDb, speculation surrounding his health intensified after fans commented on changes to his appearance. Nevertheless, sources close to the singer tell Entertainment Tonight and Elle that he is focused on being present for Hailey and their son Jack, managing anxiety, and working on his marriage, which has reportedly stabilized following earlier rough patches. The couple will celebrate son Jack's first birthday this week and their seventh anniversary next month.Bieber's business ventures are also thriving. His fashion brand SKYLRK, launched in July, is moving beyond apparel with the teasing of a futuristic bench prototype and a collaboration with adidas Football—both previewed on Instagram and covered by Hypebeast and EntertainmentNow. Bieber's business empire, together with Hailey's $212 million cosmetics brand Rhode, is estimated to be approaching $400 million. He was spotted supporting music peers at Gunna's album release party in Los Angeles, his latest public outing.Finally, social media was abuzz over a Las Vegas incident where a lookalike impersonated Bieber and was ejected from the Wynn nightclub, highlighting the persistent fan obsession and ongoing scrutiny of his image. These varied developments collectively mark an important juncture, showcasing Bieber's multifaceted career, ongoing personal growth, and resilience in navigating both public and private challenges.Get the best deals https://amzn.to/3ODvOta
Justin Bieber BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.Justin Bieber has generated quite a bit of buzz over the past few days. On August 19, Elle reported that Justin has been working hard to be present for his wife Hailey and their nearly one-year-old son Jack while continuing to manage anxiety, a challenge he's discussed openly on social media and in interviews. Releasing new music, especially his seventh studio album Swag, has reportedly given him more stability, with insiders telling Entertainment Tonight that creative outlets have helped his mental health significantly. Despite rumors earlier in the summer about marital issues, sources now say Justin and Hailey are doing much better, solidifying their family life as they gear up to celebrate Jack's first birthday and their seventh wedding anniversary.In the business sphere, Justin took to Instagram on August 20 to tease a bold new homeware prototype, sharing snaps of a futuristic orange bench he designed for his comfort-focused brand SKYLRK. This comes just weeks after SKYLRK launched with colorful apparel and accessories under the creative direction of former soccer pro Finn Rush-Taylor. While Justin hasn't confirmed a full pivot to furniture, this move would mark the brand's first expansion beyond fashion. His entrepreneurial streak was further spotlighted in a Celeb Zone piece on August 23, which highlighted Justin's business ventures in tech, wellness, and his support for Hailey's wildly successful Rhode Beauty label.On August 13, Justin made a social appearance at Gunna's album release party in Los Angeles, and fans in New York have spotted him at several events over the past week. Despite some concern among fans about his physical appearance at these outings, most notably after his see-through underwear Instagram posts, there's no verified reporting of any health crisis. Media coverage has called out this public speculation, but Justin himself has addressed mental health struggles candidly in his music and continues engaging with fans on social platforms.A major headline broke August 23 with People and TMZ reporting that Justin Bieber has settled a long-standing financial dispute with Scooter Braun, agreeing to pay his former manager $31.5 million—most of which covers money Scooter fronted him after Justin canceled the Justice Tour in 2022 to focus on his health. Braun's company had previously paid AEG, so Justin is now honoring that commitment with a settlement. This development could mark a new chapter in his business dealings.Celebratory news also made the rounds as Hailey Bieber posted about their son Jack Blues' first birthday, drawing thousands of likes and comments. Bieber fans in New York had a chance to come together at Party Iconic's Justin Bieber Night at Bowery Ballroom on August 23, further proof that the pop star's fan base remains as fervent as ever. To summarize major long-term implications Justin's latest album and business moves reinforce his place in pop culture, while his family milestones and financial resolutions suggest both personal and professional growth. Speculation around his appearance persists but is counterbalanced by verified updates on his improving mental health. For now, Bieber continues to blend vulnerability and ambition, much to the fascination of fans and the industry alike.Get the best deals https://amzn.to/3ODvOta

Justin Bieber BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.In the last week, the name Justin Bieber was everywhere for all the wrong reasons and some very real business drama. First and foremost, headlines blazed with the story of an elaborate Las Vegas nightclub hoax, after a French impersonator named Dylan Desclos snuck onto the stage at the XS Nightclub inside the Wynn Encore on August 16 by pretending to actually be Justin Bieber. According to Straight Arrow News, Desclos, who has gained social media fame for his uncanny resemblance, arrived with a full fake entourage and managed to fool the venue's staff, security, and even DJ Gryffin, who brought him onstage for a performance of Sorry. The club, shocked at the ruse, quickly banned Desclos for life, but the viral stunt had already caught fire with fans and media discussing how easily the celebrity-obsessed social world can be misled. Even outlets like CTV News and The Economic Times debated the implications, while Justin himself remained notably silent on social and in the press, leading to further speculation about his reaction.Away from club drama, Justin Bieber was photographed celebrating at Gunna's album release party in Los Angeles just a few nights before, according to “justinbieberforeverjb” on Instagram, a sighting that delighted his fans who have watched him keep a pretty low profile recently. However, the music wasn't the only thing making noise. A major financial story broke as People and TMZ detailed that Bieber has settled a prolonged and expensive financial dispute with his famed former manager Scooter Braun. After ending his Justice Tour early back in 2022 to focus on his health, Justin had been locked in a disagreement over repaying an advance—originally reported at $40 million—from touring company Aeg Presents. Now, in August 2025, multiple outlets including IMDb and AOL confirm Bieber will pay $31.5 million to Braun and Braun's Hybe organization, with $26 million earmarked as a direct settlement over the canceled tour. This resolution follows months of rumors about their relationship and could have long-range implications for Justin's business independence and future contracts.Though his own social media accounts have been relatively quiet, Bieber's name is trending boldly because of the impersonator fiasco, with some of the biggest headlines of the week reading, “Vegas Club Bans Fake Justin Bieber after Viral Stage Stunt” and “Justin Bieber Impersonator Dupes Vegas Club, Performs on Stage.” These stories overshadowed any new music activity, even as fans buzzed about his recent album SWAG and concert news, with pre-sale ticket discussions gaining attention among his loyal internet following. Speculation still swirls regarding his next move artistically, but nothing is confirmed as of now. For now, the focus remains on that costly settlement and the spectacle of celebrity culture, leaving observers to wonder which headline Justin himself will pen next.Get the best deals https://amzn.to/3ODvOta
Justin Bieber BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.Justin Bieber has dominated headlines over the past week, with developments ranging from high-stakes business settlements to viral nightlife chaos and family milestones ahead of his son's upcoming first birthday. The most discussed story centers on Bieber's resolution of a long-running financial dispute with former manager Scooter Braun. According to Just Jared and People, Bieber has agreed to pay Braun and his company Hybe approximately 31.5 million dollars, which includes 26 million owed after canceling the second half of his Justice Tour in 2022 to focus on his health. The settlement concludes months of rumors about a rift between the pop star and Braun and closes a chapter marked by speculation regarding Bieber's team, music rights, and tour finances.In the realm of business activity, Enstarz reports that Bieber recently purchased a seven-million-dollar home by a lake in Idaho, near the members-only Gozzer Ranch Golf & Lake Club, marking a further commitment to keeping his family out of the limelight when not in their main Los Angeles residence. Property records reportedly confirm that Bieber and his wife, Hailey, have frequented the area for years and now own a 5000-square-foot retreat with plenty of space for gatherings andJustin Bieber's week has been a whirlwind of headlines, public intrigue, and major business moves. Undoubtedly the biggest story is the multimillion-dollar settlement with his former manager Scooter Braun—Just Jared and People confirm Bieber has agreed to pay Braun and Hybe about 31.5 million dollars, most of it tied to advances and expenses from the canceled second leg of his Justice Tour back in 2022. The dispute, ongoing since Bieber's early exit from the tour for health reasons, involved Braun's company covering millions owed to AEG Presents; Bieber's new payment wraps up over two years of speculation about possible litigation and rumors of a protracted falling out.On a more upbeat note, Bieber made a splash on social media by revealing new family moments in Idaho. Elle Magazine reports baby Jack Blues Bieber is about to turn one, and both Justin and Hailey have posted affectionate photos: Justin with Jack on his shoulders, Hailey with Jack in a bright yellow romper. The posts come after Enstarz reported Bieber's recent seven-million-dollar purchase—a sprawling lakefront home near the Gozzer Ranch Golf & Lake Club, a favorite hideaway for families seeking privacy. Locals and insiders emphasize how the Biebers cherish their quieter life there as a grounding counterbalance to their high-profile LA existence.Online buzz also flared dramatically over the weekend after a Justin Bieber impersonator crashed XS Nightclub in Las Vegas. According to Straight Arrow News and Z97.1, the impersonator, French lookalike Dylan Desclos, fooled staff, DJ Gryffin, and partygoers, even delivering a lip-synced performance on stage before being ejected by security. Clips of the commotion went viral, fueling playful speculation online. Hailey Bieber even commented on similar stunts by Desclos in the past, joking, I'm scared... No verified reports indicate Bieber was present or involved—this was all the work of a very dedicated doppelganger.Social media watchers have also picked up on Bieber teasing “more news coming soon” in recent Instagram posts with cryptic captions and emojis, although neither he nor his representatives have clarified plans for new music or appearances. This leaves fans speculating, but, as of now, those hints remain unconfirmed. Through it all, Bieber and Hailey appear to be on solid footing as a couple, weathering rumors and celebrating family milestones. Sources close to the pair tell Entertainment Tonight that challenges earlier in the year did not put divorce on the table and that their faith and commitment to Jack are a stabilizing force. As the headlines suggest, it's been a week blending business drama, heartfelt fatherhood, viral chaos, and continued speculation about what Bieber's got planned next.Get the best deals https://amzn.to/3ODvOta
Justin Bieber BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.The past week has put Justin Bieber's name back in the headlines for reasons both serious and surreal. The most significant biographical development is a major legal and financial resolution. According to reporting by IMDb, People, and Just Jared, Justin Bieber has agreed to pay $31.5 million to his former manager Scooter Braun and Hybe to settle a high-profile financial dispute. The bulk of this sum stems from Bieber's canceled Justice Tour in 2022, which led to financial obligations after the singer pulled the plug for health reasons. TMZ and AOL note that Bieber agreed to repay $26 million from the tour advance plus roughly half of $11 million in back commissions. People magazine further explains Braun and Hybe had covered costs initially, but Bieber only made one payment before this settlement finalized the matter. This puts closure to a lingering financial story that has dogged his business life for the past two years and is likely to be seen as an inflection point reflecting both personal and professional consequences.On a more personal note, Elle Magazine has featured new public moments between Justin and his son, Jack Blues Bieber, whose first birthday is coming up on August 22. Justin shared intimate photos on Instagram showing him playing with Jack, while Hailey Bieber has been candid in Vogue about motherhood being her top priority and the couple working through relationship challenges to emerge together. Entertainment Tonight sources maintained that while there were rough patches recently, including rumors of marital strife, the Biebers are currently in a good place, with divorce never seriously on the table.Amusement and confusion enveloped the entertainment world this week after a stunning episode in Las Vegas, as reported by The Tribune, Economic Times, and Consequence. Over the weekend, a French impersonator named Dylan Desclos duped the XS Nightclub into believing Bieber himself was in the building. With a lookalike entourage and even performing Sorry on stage, Desclos fooled staff and the crowd before being exposed and permanently banned by the Wynn. The real Bieber has made no public comment on the incident, although social media buzzed with speculation and video clips, sparking fresh debates on celebrity culture and the risks of impersonation.Finally, according to Instagram fan accounts, Bieber was recently seen celebrating with friends at Gunna's album release party in Los Angeles, appearing relaxed and engaged in the music scene. No new music or upcoming major projects have been officially announced since the release of his latest album, Swag, last month. No extended interviews or public statements from Justin on personal controversies have emerged, and no credible sources confirm any rumors about further relationship or career changes at this time. The dominant public headlines for Bieber this week: major legal closure, viral impersonation confusion in Las Vegas, and warm father-son moments as he prepares to mark Jack's first birthday.Get the best deals https://amzn.to/3ODvOta

01:02:26 – Nixon Ends the Gold Standard: A Controlled Demolition of the DollarMarking the anniversary of August 15, 1971, the host recounts how Nixon severed the dollar's tie to gold, ending the Bretton Woods system. He details the lead-up, including the removal of silver from U.S. coinage, France's gold repatriation under De Gaulle, and the resulting shift from a stable bi-metallic economy to a fiat system fueling inflation, de-industrialization, and wealth transfer. 01:17:13 – De-Industrialization, Debt Expansion, and the Rise of Crony CapitalismExplains how taking the dollar off gold dovetailed with free trade policies and the 1973 formation of the Trilateral Commission. America's manufacturing base was hollowed out, trade surpluses ended, and debt skyrocketed from $371 billion in 1971 to $37 trillion today. The conversation ties this to corporate consolidation, zombie companies kept alive by central bank policy, and a rigged system benefiting elites. 01:22:33 – The Petrodollar's Decline and Global De-DollarizationReviews the 1970s Kissinger-brokered petrodollar agreement with Saudi Arabia, its quiet disappearance last year, and the shift toward multi-currency oil sales. Discusses BRICS expansion, the ruble's rebound after being gold-linked in 2022, and the dollar's shrinking share of global trade from 53% to the low 40s. Notes that central banks are hoarding gold over their own currencies. 01:44:06 – National Security State Origins and the Truman LegacyReads and comments on a Lou Rockwell article tracing the 1947 creation of the CIA, NSA, and the modern national security state. Argues that Truman's policies institutionalized interventionism, subverted the republic's founding principles, and laid the groundwork for perpetual war and surveillance. Links these shifts to Israel's 1948 recognition, Cold War militarization, and the influx of Nazi scientists under Operation Paperclip. 01:52:06 – The 80-Year Cycle, Operation Paperclip, and Cultural TransformationReflects on how the summer of 1947 reshaped U.S. governance through security agencies, covert power structures, and foreign entanglements. Notes the cultural influence of imported Nazi scientists, with Wernher von Braun as a public face, and draws connections to Cold War propaganda and the militarization of space. 02:00:58 – JFK's Secret Societies SpeechReading and analysis of JFK's 1961 warning about “secret societies” and “monolithic conspiracies,” framing it as timeless advice against government secrecy and press complicity. 02:07:44 – Operation Paperclip & Nazi InfluenceReview of how former Nazi scientists were integrated into U.S. programs after WWII, influencing aerospace, weapons development, and Cold War strategy, with Wernher von Braun as a central figure. 02:15:39 – CIA & MKUltra OriginsExposes early CIA abuses, including the MKUltra mind-control program, as part of a broader national security state agenda to manipulate populations and undermine dissent. 02:47:09 – Trump, Tariffs, and Trade RisksCritiques Trump's tariff strategy as potentially damaging to consumers and allies, warning it could backfire by pushing more nations toward BRICS-style trade blocs. 03:07:17 – NASA Moon Base Plans & Apollo SkepticismNASA's push for a 100-kilowatt lunar reactor sparks analysis of the Artemis program, U.S.–China competition, and a deeper dive into why America hasn't returned to the moon in decades, despite having done so multiple times in the past. 03:33:56 – Space Race & Global Power ShiftReflection on how space exploration intersects with geopolitical changeovers, comparing today's “fourth turning” to post-WWII institution building, and speculating on the existence of a secret space program. 03:45:54 – Red Heifer Prophecy & Third TempleMr. Anderson connects current events in Israel to biblical prophecy, questioning modern evangelical support for temple reconstruction and warning about theological and political implications. 03:50:56 – Decline of Religious ActivismCritique of modern Christian leadership for failing to visibly oppose cultural trends such as the transgender movement, contrasting this with past Catholic and evangelical activism. 03:58:52 – Gold Standard Anniversary & Fiat Currency WarningMarking the anniversary of Nixon taking the U.S. off the gold standard, the host warns about the destructive effects of fiat currency and urges listeners to consider precious metals.

While forgiveness is complete and unconditional, consequences often remain. The good news? "It's the knowledge of forgiveness that better equips you to handle the scars."

This episode we dive into the ins and outs of Wernher von Braun's wartime credentials, before the Americans would be faced with the decision of whether or not his file needed a paperclip to begin with. (It did!) Contrasting heavily from last episode's Klaus Fuchs, we look at someone whose humanity always came second to his ambition as a scientist in Nazi Germany, and contextualise his role into the broader scope of the Nazi concentration camp system. Who were some of the more sinister characters he met along the way? What did the Summer of 1945 look like for him and his fellow engineers as the Third Reich crumbled around them?++++++
Justin Bieber BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.The past few days have been transformative for Justin Bieber both professionally and personally, starting with a headline-making release of the music video for his new single Yukon on August 5. According to Parade and ABC News, the black-and-white video directed by Cole Bennett features an intimate look at Justin, Hailey, and their son Jack Blues Bieber, who turns one later this month. The video sees the Bieber family cuddling, swimming, and relaxing together on a boat, putting a very public, joyful face on their private life just as rumors about Justin and Hailey's marriage have been swirling yet again.This family-focused video is the second from Justin's seventh studio album Swag, which dropped on July 11 and has been widely described as a major milestone for him. A press release cited by Good Morning America calls the album his most personal yet, drawing inspiration from his new roles as husband and father. Justin's camp told People he felt both nervous and excited about the project, seeking perfection and feeling thrilled about this new chapter.Business news has also made waves: Justin's earlier decision to sever ties with the Drew House fashion line has dominated discussion since April. Instead, he's been teasing a yet-unreleased clothing venture called SKYLRK; keen-eyed fans noticed the brand's logo featured on the boat in the Yukon video, signaling his next move in fashion, according to ABC Audio.Financially, speculation continues in the wake of the Hulu documentary TMZ Investigates: What Happened to Justin Bieber which reignited talk about past money troubles allegedly forcing the sale of his song catalog for $200 million. TMZ's Harvey Levin revealed that conflicts with former manager Scooter Braun are now reportedly resolved, noting a settlement where Justin actually owed Braun nearly $19 million.TMZ, Extra, and Vogue have all probed the persistent divorce rumors, but Justin and Hailey's united public front seems calculated to counteract the noise. Hailey told Vogue in May about the difficulty of enduring postpartum scrutiny and online gossip, but stressed that her focus remains on her family and real life. Social media is abuzz: E News pointed out the star turn by baby Jack in Yukon, and Instagram lit up with photos and praise for the Bieber family's picture-perfect life.Music insiders anticipate that Swag marks a long-term creative renewal for Justin. Extra highlighted that Las Vegas residencies could beckon next, as the singer looks for career stability and less travel now that family comes first. All in all, the past week has not just been a comeback for Justin Bieber, it's been a strategic reframing of both his public persona and his most important personal relationships.Get the best deals https://amzn.to/3ODvOta

Get ready, folks, because we're diving deep into the shadowy world of Operation Paperclip—again! This time, it's Lindsy's turn to take the reins as we uncover the dark reality of N∆ℤ! war criminals and scientists who weren't just brought over for their rocketry skills but were also deeply entangled in intelligence, chemical warfare, and Cold War espionage. From Klaus Barbie's twisted post-war career to the murky alliances forged under the guise of anti-communism, this episode exposes how far the U.S. was willing to go in the name of national security. The question remains: Did we really win WWII, or did the N∆ℤ! ideology just find a new home?Timestamps:02:45 The government's shady dealings with N∆ℤ!s04:30 Beyond rocket science—spies, war criminals, and MKUltra06:15 Klaus Barbie: The Butcher of Lyon and CIA asset10:18 Laundering N∆ℤ!s instead of money12:39 The Gellin Organization—Cold War intelligence disaster15:05 The myth of innocent America17:27 More N∆ℤ! war criminals recruited by the U.S.19:55 Wernher von Braun and war crimes22:16 Nuremberg trials and ignored justice24:40 The military-industrial complex roots27:05 Nazi chemical warfare and its ties to MKUltra29:21 U.S. hypocrisy in biological weapons31:45 The ends justify the means—or do they?34:10 Patriotism vs. statism—where do we draw the line?36:35 The N∆ℤ!s didn't lose, they relocated39:25 Social engineering and modern consequences

We need to know whose story is running the show, so we can craft our own better one… Songs and Lyrics by Tom Lehrer The post The Visionary Activist Show – Whose Story is running the show? appeared first on KPFA.
Today on the Doc On The Run Podcast we are talking with Dr. Samantha Braun about training fro Ultra's, running Hell's Hills and how her training as a Physical and Rehabilitation Medicine Physician helps her avoid overtraining injuries. How do you think you're training in rehabilitation help you understand your own mechanics, physical training limits and overtraining injury prevention while training for Ultra's? During the 50 mile trail race, what did you do to restore a more positive mindset and keep running to your potential? Knowing what you know now, what would you do differently to prevent that injury from happening? Right now there is some runner listening who is suffering from an over training injury, and very likely of how demoralized they have become as a consequence of not running. If she was sitting there in front of you right now and you knew this about her, what advice would you give her to encourage her to keep healing, working and getting stronger so that she could get back to running?
