Podcasts about Breaking Point

As the country absorbs the shock of Alex Pretti's murder by federal agents in Minneapolis, President Trump is politically on the defensive. He sent his border czar there and sort of made nice with Minnesota's Democratic governor. Meanwhile, Republicans and senior ICE officials are panicking about the situation. Democratic Senators are vowing to oppose funding for the Department of Homeland Security absent major restrictions on ICE. Will they hold the line? We talked to Senator Chris Murphy of Connecticut. He offers a bracing indictment of Trump-ICE lawlessness, saying bluntly that we're at a “breaking point” that will decide whether “we condone the federal government murdering our own citizens.” Murphy also lays out how Trump is losing the argument over immigration, what Democrats should demand to restrict ICE and explains why it would be disastrous—for his party and the country—if Democrats cave at such a critical moment.  Learn more about your ad choices.

In this episode, Chuck Thuss sits down with Anthony Dyer for an honest, deeply human conversation about military service, accumulated trauma, identity loss, addiction, and the long road to healing. Anthony shares his 21-year career in the United States Air Force, including high-risk missions, elite rescue operations, and the emotional weight that followed him home long after the uniform came off. From the quiet moments that haunt servicemen and women to the stigma around asking for help, Anthony opens up about how suppressed trauma and alcohol nearly cost him everything. What followed was a turning point shaped by accountability, faith, community, and the courage to finally take a knee and heal. This episode is a reminder that healing is not weakness, identity can be rebuilt, and no matter how dark the night gets, you are never out of the fight. Guest Bio Anthony Dyer is a retired United States Air Force veteran with 21 years of service, including elite roles in combat search and rescue, special operations, and aerial gunship missions.

Chris Cuomo curates key moments from the past week of Cuomo Mornings in this YouTube edition, pulling together the conversations that defined the show as debates over power, policy, and real-world consequences continued to collide on his SiriusXM program. Lara Trump addresses questions about tariffs, health care costs, and why she argues President Trump's economic strategy is delivering results even as institutions push back. James Carville offers a stark counterpoint, criticizing Democratic leadership, warning that the political system is failing everyday voters, and weighing in on Greenland, ICE enforcement, and the dangers of governing through provocation instead of problem-solving. Listeners add their own blunt perspectives, pressing Cuomo on affordability, trust in the media, political independence, and whether either party still speaks for the American middle. Throughout the discussions, Cuomo keeps returning to the same pressure point: outrage and loyalty tests may dominate the political conversation, but they don't lower costs, restore trust, or improve people's lives—and voters are the ones paying the price.

The state of Nebraska high school football is starting to reach a weird weird place.

U.S. kids are more depressed, stressed, and anxious than ever. ADHD and autism diagnosis rates are steadily rising. What's going on? In this episode of Hyperfocus, journalist Jia Lynn Yang joins Rae to examine how major school policy shifts in the U.S. have changed what's expected of kids, often with unintended — and serious — consequences. Drawing from her New York Times reporting and her personal experience as a parent, Jia Lynn explores whether school itself may be contributing to the crisis — and what kids actually need to thrive.For more on this topic:Read: Jia Lynn's piece: America's children are unwell.

President Trump doubles down on Greenland—calling it a core national security necessity for the United States and the Western Hemisphere. Speaking amid World Economic Forum fallout, Trump and his allies argue that Greenland's location, Arctic shipping lanes, missile defense needs, and growing Chinese and Russian influence make U.S. control unavoidable. This episode breaks down the strategic, financial, and geopolitical case for Greenland, the mounting frustration with NATO and Europe, and why Trump says America can no longer subsidize global security while being blocked from defending its own hemisphere. From hypersonic missiles to Arctic icebreakers, from NATO spending disputes to “America First” defense policy—this conversation exposes why Greenland could become the issue that shatters NATO's unity. ⚠️

In this powerful and wide-ranging discussion, we examine America's growing constitutional crisis—from extreme weather changes along the Gulf Coast to states openly defying federal law enforcement.As sanctuary states challenge federal authority, questions arise about the Insurrection Act of 1807, the limits of Posse Comitatus, and whether the federal government can restore law and order when local leaders refuse to cooperate with ICE.The conversation dives deep into:State lawsuits attempting to block federal lawAlleged billions in welfare and SNAP fraudSanctuary cities shielding criminal networksThe role of ICE, local law enforcement, and governorsWhy some believe constitutional amendments are now necessaryThe broader fight for national unity, sovereignty, and the rule of lawThroughout history, patriotism has carried America through its darkest moments.

As protests spread across Iran and the regime intensifies its crackdown, Mosh sits down with Jason Rezaian — former Tehran correspondent and Iranian regime prisoner— to break down what's really happening inside the country, and why this moment feels different from past waves of unrest.Rezaian draws on both history and lived experience. His father left Iran for the U.S. before the revolution; Jason returned decades later to cover the country — and was ultimately arrested and held as prisoner for 544 days.In this conversation, Rezaian explains how Islamic Regime has reached its end date — from economic collapse and internal fractures to a public that increasingly feels it has nothing left to lose. He shares how Iranians still find ways to communicate and organize under extreme censorship, why outside military pressure often strengthens hardliners, and what real support for Iranian civil society could look like.The episode also looks ahead: how fragile the regime actually is, who could emerge as a credible leader if it falls, and what kind of transition would give Iran its best chance at stability after decades of repression.

President Donald Trump has redefined the authority of the American presidency. In a recent interview with the New York Times, he said he is constrained only by his “own morality.” Trump has often exercised power in ways that have raised alarms including weaponizing the Department of Justice to go after political opponents, capturing the leader of Venezuela without Congressional approval, sending the National Guard into cities to squash protests and imposing tariffs. As we approach the one year anniversary of Trump's inauguration, we'll talk about the expansion of presidential power and what it means for democracy. Guests: Steven Levitsky, professor of government, Harvard, co-author of "Why Democracies Die" and "Tyranny of the Minority: Why American Democracy Reached the Breaking Point."

OCD hijacked Rachel's life. Perfectionism and obsessive thinking had always been a part of her life, but a new relationship gave OCD something to latch onto — and it escalated fast. Her thoughts spiraled, her sense of control collapsed, and the disorder began dictating every decision. What followed was a sudden exit from her job on a Netflix set, a stay in a psychiatric facility, and thoughts that scared her enough to realize she couldn't manage it on her own anymore.In this episode, Rachel Immraj shares her OCD journey. She shares how deep OCD pulled her and how she, finally, got help. Rachel also tells us about her new documentary, An Unquiet Mind, that follows multiple people with OCD. She directed it to show others the dark side of OCD, a side that almost swallowed her whole. NOCD specializes in exposure and response prevention therapy, the most effective treatment for OCD.

Is Iran's uprising a historic turning point, or the start of an even bloodier stalemate? In this episode, you'll learn what actually makes authoritarian regimes crack (hint: it's not street protests alone, it's defections inside the guns-and-batons apparatus), how President Trump's rhetoric (“write down their names,” “help is on its way,” tariffs, canceled talks) is being read as psychological warfare aimed at splintering regime enforcers, and why a U.S.-Israel strike, if it comes, could be calibrated to energize protesters rather than unite the public around the Ayatollahs. The hosts also clash over the nightmare scenario of a last-minute “deal” that leaves the regime alive, then widen the lens to the Abraham Accords, the hypocrisy of Western media and campus activists and the staggering domino effect of an Iran without proxies...ending with a blunt cliffhanger: they're convinced something big is coming, and soon.

In this episode's compelling conversation, Derek Hansen, a veteran sprint coach, return-to-play specialist, and educator, discusses the alarming rise in Achilles tendon ruptures among increasingly younger athletes.    Drawing from decades of experience with professional athletes, Hansen challenges oversimplified explanations and advocates for examining multiple contributing factors: footwear design (particularly the shift to low-cut, rigid shoes), playing surface variations, potential systemic health impacts, and critically, the erosion of general physical preparation in favor of hyper-specialization.    Throughout the discussion, Hansen emphasizes wisdom gleaned from his mentorship under Charlie Francis, particularly the importance of viewing training through a lens of general stressors and systemic adaptation rather than excessive specificity.   Hansen and host Mickey Brueckner explore the broader philosophical challenges facing strength and conditioning professionals today, including the tension between the industry's obsession with specificity versus the proven value of general physical preparation, shrinking preparation windows at all levels, and the loss of proper periodization in the social media age.    Hansen makes a compelling case that strength coaches must reclaim their role as generalists while maintaining the courage to implement evidence-based programming even when it contradicts popular trends. The conversation serves as both a diagnostic examination of current problems in athletic development and a practical roadmap for building more resilient, available athletes.   Interested in learning more?

In this episode of The Nutritional Therapy and Wellness Podcast, host Jamie Belz sits down with Patricia ("Patty") Lemer for a wide-ranging, hope-filled conversation on Total Load Theory, introducing and unpacking many of the topics covered in Patty's recently released book, Total Load Theory: Transforming Lives in Autism, ADHD, LD, SPD, and Mental Health. Patty Lemer is a pioneer and internationally recognized authority on identifying root causes and applying a holistic, systems-based model of care to autism, ADHD, learning differences (LD), sensory processing disorder (SPD), and mental health. She was among the first to apply the term "Total Load Theory" to mental health disorders, an engineering concept describing how the body accumulates an overload of stressors that eventually leads to dysfunction. Patty co-founded one of the first online non-profit organizations offering accessible information to families, helped establish a center for young adults in Kuwait (2012–2014), and has recorded over 100 episodes of her bi-monthly podcast, The Autism Detectives. Her work bridges decades of clinical observation with practical strategies, grounded in the fundamentals taught at the Nutritional Therapy Association (NTA): nutrient-dense diet, digestion, blood sugar regulation, sleep, stress, and movement. These "Foundations of Health" apply to all, not only those with difficult diagnoses. When viewed through a bio-individual lens, each of us can begin to see symptoms of dysfunction dissipate as balance is restored to the body. Together, Jamie and Patty unpack how compounding stressors - from poor sleep and blood sugar swings to environmental toxins, mold exposure, nervous system dysregulation, EMFs, trauma, screen overload, and chronic inflammation - can accumulate until the body reaches a breaking point and symptoms become the dash lights we can't ignore. This episode also explores why sleep may trump nutrition, how a dysregulated nervous system can block healing (even with the "right protocol"), the role of polyvagal theory and vagus nerve regulation, and why detoxification must be gentle, foundational, and consistent - not trendy or extreme. In this episode, you'll learn: What Total Load Theory is and how "compounding stressors" lead to chronic symptoms Why symptoms often show up when the body hits a breaking point How stress includes far more than emotions: sleep debt, toxins, trauma, inflammation, screens, EMFs, and more Patty's perspective on sensory and vision therapies Why sleep hygiene can determine whether the body can heal, especially in kids and teens How nervous system dysregulation (fight/flight) can block progress in nutrition, detox, and therapy Practical starting points: reduce exposure, support elimination, prioritize sleep, and begin one step at a time Why healthy fats matter for brain and nervous system function (myelin, seizures, metabolic psychiatry) How to think like a "health detective" and trace symptoms back to root causes How to access Patty's new AI companion that searches her intellectual property and points listeners to relevant chapters and podcast episodes Resources mentioned in this episode: Patricialemer.com Multi-Media Content Podcast: Patricia Lemer: The Autism Detective Patty's AI companion: ai.patricialemer.com Patty's books: Outsmarting Autism and Total Load Theory: Transforming Lives in Autism, ADHD, LD, SPD, and Mental Health Book Mentioned: The Sensitive Patient's Healing Guide by Dr. Neil Nathan Documenting Hope Nutritional Therapy and Wellness Podcast - Wellness 101 (Help getting started with the Foundations of Health) Nutritional Therapy and Wellness Podcast on Circumcision Attend a Nutritional Therapy Association Webinar!

On this episode, Iran claims it has “full control” after weeks of violent unrest sparked by a currency collapse, but protests, funerals, and reports of mass arrests and killings suggest the uprising is far from over as Trump weighs a response and Tehran quietly reaches out through backchannel communications. Meanwhile in Minneapolis, tensions explode after an ICE-involved shooting killed 37-year-old Renee Good, triggering massive demonstrations and prompting Homeland Security to mobilize hundreds more federal officers in what officials call their largest operation ever. Plus, in the UK, Peter Mandelson flips the script with a sudden U-turn apology for staying connected to Jeffrey Epstein after his conviction, admitting he made a “terrible mistake” and apologizing directly to victims.#IranProtests #MinneapolisProtests #JeffreyEpsteinGet more AoA and become a member to get exclusive access to perks:https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCOfx0OFE-uMTmJXGPpP7elQ/joinGet Erin C's book here: https://amzn.to/3ITDoO7Get Merch here - https://bit.ly/AnthonyMerchSubscribe to the Anthony On Air Podcast here:Facebook - https://bit.ly/AntOnAirFBYouTube - https://bit.ly/AntOnAirYTApple Podcast - https://bit.ly/AntOnAirAppleSpotify - https://bit.ly/AntOnAirSpotTwitter - https://bit.ly/AntOnAirTwitterInstagram - https://bit.ly/AntOnAirInstaTikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@anthonyonairpodDiscord - https://discord.gg/78V469aV22Get more at https://www.AnthonyOnAir.com

Today on Exploring the Marketplace, Shawn Bolz and Bob Hasson dive into a conversation every entrepreneur and business leader faces at some point: what do you do when you hit the wall and everything says quit?In this powerful episode, Shawn and Bob unpack the tension between calling, perseverance, and wisdom—sharing personal stories of long seasons, financial pressure, uncertainty, and learning when to push forward versus when to pivot. They explore how faith sustains leaders through cash-flow crises, industry volatility, and moments where giving up feels easier than pressing on.The conversation features a compelling testimony from Steve Smithwick, founder and president of MasterWall Incorporated.

Through years of financial hardship, near-collapse moments, and divine provision, Steve learned to rely on God's timing, voice, and faithfulness.This episode covers:What it means to build a business when everything feels stacked against youHow perseverance and faith work together in real-world leadershipThe importance of mentors, community, and godly counselWhy “hard pressed” doesn't mean finishedHow God often forges purpose through pressureIf you're facing a wall in your career, business, or calling, this episode offers courage, clarity, and hope.

In December, Elon Musk's AI chatbot ‘Grok' rolled out a new image-editing feature on his social media site, X. It didn't take long for users to exploit it, digitally undressing women and girls and spreading non-consensual deepfakes. But while a governmental backlash in the UK is growing, these photos are still flooding in. So how is this legal? And are we finally reaching a moment where the harms of AI can't be brushed aside?Update: As of this morning (9/1), X has disabled Grok's image generation tool for non-subscribers. Grok wrote in a reply that this was done “to ensure responsible use and address recent concerns about misuse for inappropriate content.”This podcast was brought to you thanks to the support of readers of The Times and The Sunday Times.

Iran is entering one of the most perilous moments in its modern history. In this urgent episode of Shoulder to Shoulder, Rabbi Pesach Wolicki and Pastor Doug Reed are joined by Iranian opposition strategist Mehrdad Marty Youssefiani, a longtime adviser to the Iranian resistance, to assess the rapidly unfolding protests inside Iran and what they mean for the regime's survival. Unlike past uprisings driven by ideology or social reform, today's unrest is fueled by economic collapse: a crashing currency, empty treasuries, shuttered markets, and ordinary Iranians who can no longer afford bread, water, or rent. Youssefiani explains why this shift makes the current protests far more dangerous for the regime, how fear inside Iran's security forces is growing, and why the convergence of internal unrest and external geopolitical pressure has left Tehran more exposed than ever. The conversation also explores the fragmented nature of the Iranian opposition, the realistic prospects for unity in exile and inside Iran, and what signs listeners should be watching for in the coming weeks. Finally, the episode addresses how people of faith can pray, advocate, and support the Iranian people at a moment when the future of the region may be hanging in the balance. This is not speculation. This is a real-time assessment of a regime under unprecedented strain—and a nation approaching a historic crossroads. To help Israel365 and its Aliyah campaign, click here.

When you're working harder than ever and still getting questioned, most leaders assume they're the problem. But what if the real reason you're exhausted isn't lack of effort...it's that you're trying to win inside a model that was never designed to show your impact?This episode is part of a 5-part series exploring the journey B2B revenue leaders take from reactive chaos to finally understanding, measuring, and transforming their entire Revenue Factory. Each stage represents a critical inflection point and the exact moments that separate leaders who consistently hit targets and drive real, provable results… from those who spend every quarter scrambling, duct-taping reports, and wondering why nothing is working.This episode explores Stage 3: The Breaking Point, AKA the most emotionally charged and career-defining moment in the entire transformation journey.What We Cover in This Episode:Why Stage 3 is the moment leaders either break down, or break throughWhy constant scrutiny, unclear reporting, and cross-functional finger-pointing aren't personal failures, but symptoms of a broken data modelThe exact frameworks that explain why you're stuck and what has to change to unlock real revenue clarityWhy duct-taped reporting, activity-based KPIs, and siloed metrics guarantee misalignmentHow top-performing GTM teams rebuild their entire foundation, and why it transforms everything from credibility to win ratesThis is the episode for every revenue, marketing, or GTM leader who has ever thought:I'm exhausted from constantly defending myself.”“I KNOW we're making an impact, so why can't I prove it?”“What if the problem isn't me… but the entire system?”

As Lord Cognito long predicted, the AI conversation reached a breaking point online when people saw one of the industry's golden children announced that they'll be using generative AI for their game's development. That team is Larian Studios who is responsible for the Divinity franchise alongside the incredible Baldur's Gate 3. The CEO of Larian, Swen Vincke, said that it will be used for mostly pre-production stuff along the lines of whiteboxing or even company e-mails. However, he also let it slip that concept art ideation will be part of that process as an optional tool. Well, social media did not like this at all. It has turned into one of the most split topics to round out 2025. So, where do the Dukes stand? Matty, a longtime critic of AI's usage in development beyond a tool, happens to be a massive Larian fan. Does he bend the knee? What of Lord Cognito who always expected this? Does he blink at such a revelation? Perhaps, it's all overblown. There is a reality where we're years down the line and Larian is on a long list of developers who are all doing the same thing.
