It's not a character flaw that you're replaying that comment, that tone, that thing you should have said — it's your mind doing its job badly. This episode breaks down what rumination actually is, why it feels productive even though it never resolves anything, and why the standard advice (stop overthinking it, just think positively) quietly makes it worse. Brett Ingram reframes the 2am replay as misdirected care — real concern with nowhere to go — and walks through three moves to redirect it: creating distance from the loop, asking whether it wants an action or a feeling, and giving it a channel out of your head. What You'll Learn in This Episode What rumination actually is, and why replaying something forty times leaves you with zero new information Why your mind loops specifically on things that feel unfinished and unsafe at the same time Why most replays are about people, not tasks — and what that says about how your brain tracks belonging The research showing rumination doesn't just fail to solve problems, it actively makes you worse at solving them Why "just stop overthinking it" and "just think positively" both backfire, and the famous experiment that proves it The reframe at the center of the episode: rumination is misdirected care, not a malfunction Three concrete moves — creating distance, asking "action or feeling," and finding a channel — plus a simple "two a.m. reset" you can use tonight Episode Timestamps [00:00] The 2am replay: reliving a conversation frame by frame [01:00] The real question — what is your mind actually trying to do? [02:00] Naming it: what rumination actually is, and why it feels productive but isn't [03:00] The "Buckner moment" — watching your worst footage on repeat [05:00] You're not broken: the Harvard study on mind-wandering and mood [06:00] Why the mind loops: unfinished and unsafe at the same time [07:00] Why most loops are social — belonging, safety, and the people around you [08:00] Susan Nolen-Hoeksema's research: rumination makes the problem harder to solve [09:00] The white bear experiment — why forcing yourself to stop backfires [10:00] The reframe: rumination is misdirected care [12:00] Move 1: Name the loop and create distance (distanced self-talk) [14:00] Move 2: Ask the one honest question — action or feeling? [17:00] Move 3: Give it a channel — say it, write it, move your body [19:00] The limits: when it's more than rumination, and when the loop is right [20:00] The Two AM Reset — a three-step practice you can use tonight Episode Summary You're an intelligent, capable adult who solves real problems all day — and yet at 2am, you're powerless against one specific conversation, replaying it frame by frame, hunting for the edit that would make it come out clean. Brett Ingram argues that this loop isn't a malfunction. It's your mind trying to protect you. It's just going about it badly. Psychologists have a name for it: rumination — the habit of responding to distress by replaying the causes, the meaning, and the what-ifs, without ever moving toward resolving anything. That's the trap. Rumination feels like processing, so it feels productive, but you can watch the same footage forty times and end up with exactly zero new information — the same trap the Fever Pitch character falls into, replaying the Buckner moment instead of living his own life. The mind loops on anything that feels unfinished and unsafe at the same time — a conversation with no clean ending, paired with something you care about (your competence, your kindness, your standing with someone) feeling at stake. Put those together, and your mind treats the moment like an active threat, refusing to file it away because filing it away feels like giving up on protecting you. Most replays are social rather than practical, because for most of human history, belonging was survival — which is why you might replay an awkward comment to a friend for a week and forget an actual mistake at work by Friday. The cruel twist, backed by the late Yale psychologist Susan Nolen-Hoeksema's decades of research, is that rumination doesn't just fail to solve the problem — it actively makes you worse at solving it, muddling your thinking and eroding the very relationships you're looping about. Brett takes apart the two most common pieces of advice — "just stop overthinking it" and "just think positively" — and shows why both backfire, using Daniel Wegner's famous 1980s "white bear" experiment: people told not to think about a white bear end up thinking about it more, not less, because suppression forces part of the mind to stand guard over the very thought it's trying to avoid. The reframe at the center of the episode: rumination is misdirected care — real concern about something that matters, aimed at a problem it can't solve by staying in your head. From there, Brett offers three moves. First, name the loop and create distance from it, using Ethan Kross's research on "distanced self-talk" — talking to yourself in the second or third person instead of "I." Second, ask the loop one honest question: is this a real action you need to take, or a feeling you need to let yourself feel? The two require opposite responses, and confusing them is why loops never end. Third, give it a channel out of your head — say it to someone, write it down, or move your body. Brett closes with two honest caveats: when the looping is relentless, trauma-linked, or pulling you somewhere dark, that's a sign to talk to a professional, not a podcast framework. And sometimes the loop is right — it's not malfunctioning, it's a messenger for a conversation you've been avoiding. The episode ends with a simple "two a.m. reset" — name it, ask action-or-feeling, pick one channel — and the reminder that the goal was never to stop caring. It's to give the caring somewhere to go. Resources Mentioned Susan Nolen-Hoeksema — Late Yale psychologist whose decades of research established that rumination impairs, rather than aids, problem-solving Daniel Wegner — Psychologist behind the 1980s "white bear" thought-suppression experiment and the concept of the "ironic process of mental control" Ethan Kross — University of Michigan psychologist and author of Chatter, whose research on "distanced self-talk" underlies the episode's first move A well-known Harvard mind-wandering study — Real-time experience-sampling research referenced in the episode finding minds wander roughly 47% of waking hours (researcher/citation not named in the source transcript — confirm before publishing, likely Killingsworth & Gilbert, "A Wandering Mind Is an Unhappy Mind," 2010) Fever Pitch — Film referenced for the scene of a character replaying his team's worst loss on repeat instead of moving on Frequently Asked Questions Why can't I stop replaying an embarrassing or painful conversation in my head? Your mind loops on things that feel both unfinished (no clean resolution) and unsafe (something you care about — your competence, your standing with someone — feels at stake). When both are true at once, your mind treats it like an active threat and keeps it "open" rather than filing it away, because filing it away feels like giving up on protecting you. What is rumination, and how is it different from normal reflection? Rumination is the habit of replaying the causes, meaning, and what-ifs of a distressing moment without ever moving toward resolving it. A lesson has an endpoint — you learn something and the thinking is done. A loop has no endpoint — you circle the same ground and arrive nowhere, no matter how many times you replay it. Why doesn't telling myself to "just stop thinking about it" work? Because suppressing a thought requires part of your mind to keep checking whether you're thinking about it — which keeps the thought alive instead of closing it. Psychologist Daniel Wegner demonstrated this with his famous "white bear" experiment: people told not to think about a white bear thought about it more than people who were never given the instruction at all. What is "distanced self-talk," and how does it help with rumination? It's talking to yourself using your own name or "you" instead of "I" — for example, "you're looping on this again" instead of "why did I say that." Researcher Ethan Kross found this small shift creates enough psychological distance to lower distress and help people see a situation more clearly, without suppressing the thought. How do I know if I'm dealing with a real action or just a feeling that needs to be felt? Ask the loop directly: is there something I actually need to do or say, or is this just a feeling I haven't let myself feel? If it's an action, write down the smallest next step — the moment there's a plan, the urge to keep replaying it tends to drain away. If it's a feeling, name it and let it be there; you can't think your way out of something that just needs to be felt. What's the fastest thing I can do at 2am when the loop starts? Try the "two a.m. reset": name the loop and step back from it ("this is a loop, not a lesson"), ask whether it's an action or a feeling and respond accordingly, then pick one channel for tomorrow — tell one person, write one page, or take one walk. Even just naming the loop is a win on its own. When is replaying a conversation actually a sign I need to talk to a professional? If the looping is relentless, tied to a trauma you keep reliving, feels intrusive and frightening, or is pulling you into a darkness that's hard to climb out of, that's beyond ordinary rumination — it's a sign to talk to a real professional, not something a framework alone is meant to fix.

The Most Haunted City On Earth | Presented by The Savannah Underground
Join us on Patreon! It's the best way to support this podcast! www.patreon.com/hauntedcitypodcastThere is a town in West Virginia called Booger Hole, and people kept disappearing from it.In the final episode of Haunted South, Madison and Chris head into Southern Appalachia for three stories out of Tennessee, North Carolina, and West Virginia. Dark woods, old rules, and a mountain range where the folklore is not decoration. It is instruction.First up: the Buckner Witch. Around 1865, a small woman named Polly Brewington arrived in Standing Stone, Tennessee, dressed head to toe in black. She took a job as housemaid for the Buckner family, fell for Alex Buckner, and then things went sideways in a way that is genuinely hard to believe. Climbing into their bed at night. Ripping the covers off. Having her brothers corner Margaret Buckner in an alley. She was finally banished, and she died not long after under circumstances no record can explain. In the middle of her son's second birthday party, Margaret Buckner went blank, stared into the distance, and announced, "Polly Brewington is dead and now she comes to torment me." Nobody could ever explain how she knew.Polly never left. Margaret spent the rest of her life swinging brooms and later a cane at a woman in black who kept showing up in her house, in her bedroom, and eventually at her own funeral.Then we head to Roan Mountain on the Tennessee and North Carolina line, where people have been hearing a choir in the wind since the 1700s. Some hear angels rehearsing for Judgment Day. Others hear screaming. We get into the Cloudland Hotel, the white line painted down the middle of the dining room to separate legal liquor from illegal liquor, the geologist who described a sound like a thousand bees, and the young man who took shelter in a cave during a thunderstorm and came out with his clothes bleached white.And then Booger Hole. Clay County, West Virginia. A stonemason vanished in 1883 carrying 300 dollars. A watchmaker vanished from the schoolhouse in 1897 and left a blood trail to the creek. An old woman named Lacey Ann Boggs was shot in the back of the head while knitting, and the man accused of it told the squire she called him with a witch call that made him fly through his window like a bird and carry her home on his back. By 1917 the county had had enough. One hundred and fifty armed men stormed the jail, shot the building up, dynamited five houses, and nailed a hand written notice to the trees listing exactly who had ten days to leave and who had thirty.Booger Hole has been quiet ever since. Except for the riders you can hear but never see, and the woman in white with the long black hair who wails along the paths at night.Plus a viewer submitted video that we are not fully convinced about, and a conversation about why "don't look in the trees," "if you hear your name called in the woods, you didn't," and "if you hear whistling at night, you didn't" are rules worth keeping.Got a personal ghost story and want it read on the show?

Gio loves seeing the ‘86 Mets, but not in the middle of a horrendous season, though Jerry loved their throwback video and noted Jamie-Lynn Sigler is married to Lenny Dykstra's son. Ray Knight's SNY appearance brought up a past domestic dispute. Also, a debate on whether Bob Murphy or Vin Scully owns the iconic Mookie/Buckner call. C-Lo returns with updates from the Yankees beating the Cubs, including Austin Wells honoring Thurman Munson on the 47th anniversary of his death. To wrap up the hour, the guys react to Joe Buck's surprisingly annoyed radio call of the Buckner error and field a caller questioning why Mets Twitter thanked Freddy Peralta.

Send us Fan MailWe sit down with Alex Castle and Matt Grove to talk about how Augusta Distillery grows fast without losing its cask strength, unfiltered identity. We dig into the Ohio OHLQ collaboration, why the $59 small batch matters, and how meeting people in stores and at festivals turns shelf bottles into home bar staples. • why Augusta moves from single barrels into three to six barrel small batch while keeping a single barrel mindset • how the Ohio OHLQ custom small batch and Buckner's 13 release land with fans across the state • why cask strength and no dilution stay non-negotiable for the brand • the real work behind barrel picks, blending decisions, and building a balanced flavor profile • why pricing is part of trust, giving new drinkers a lower risk way to try Augusta • what “boots on the ground” tastings change for a brand in a crowded bourbon market • how Augusta's distillery experience keeps evolving, from tours to bottle your own to cocktails Whether you listen to us or you watch us, make sure you leave us good feedback. A $59 bourbon can sound like a compromise until you taste what Augusta Distillery is putting in the bottle. We're joined by master distiller Alex Castle and brand ambassador Matt Grove to unpack the thinking behind Augusta's cask strength small batch, built from six barrels and designed to drink with the same care you'd expect from a single barrel program. No dilution, unfiltered, and largely made from 7 to 9 year old bourbon, it's positioned as a real entry point for people who have stared at premium Buckner's bottles and thought, “I need to taste this before I bet that kind of money.”We also get into Augusta's Ohio push with OHLQ and what it's like taking the show on the road, hitting tastings across Cleveland, Columbus, and Cincinnati at some truly weird hours, then finding lines of fans already waiting. If you know Ohio, you know the love for weeded bourbon runs deep, so we talk about the reception for Augusta's weeded single barrel and why face to face tastings still matter in a world of constant releases and crowded shelves.Along the way we swap festival stories, explain why barrel picking and blending is harder than it looks, and tease what Augusta is planning for Kentucky Bourbon Festival. If you're hunting bottles, planning a bourbon tourism trip, or just want a cask strength pour that overdelivers for the price, this conversation gives you the context and the practical tips.

Empowered Relationship Podcast: Your Relationship Resource And Guide
Ever wonder why certain conflicts keep resurfacing in your relationships, or why you wake from a vivid dream feeling shaken without understanding why? Sometimes, the real roots of our struggles with loved ones aren't just out in the open—they're buried in the deeper layers of our own subconscious. When we ignore these internal signals, challenges can feel insurmountable, and solutions remain out of reach. In this episode, listeners will explore how dreams and moments of inner reflection can act as a mirror, revealing hidden emotions and unresolved patterns that shape the way we connect with others. By diving into the interplay between our inner world and our daily lives, practical techniques are shared to help harness the wisdom of dreams and self-inquiry—so relationships can become more creative, connected, and resilient in the face of recurring challenges. Bonnie Buckner, PhD, is founder and CEO of the International Institute for Dreaming and Imagery®, author of THE SECRET MIND, and Program Lead for George Washington University's One Humanity Leadership Coaching Certification Program, where she uses dreaming and imagery work to develop coaches. Episode Highlights 04:37 How nighttime reflections illuminate daily life and relationships. 08:52 Emotional processing: Recalibrating through dreams. 11:39 Dreams as personal mirrors: Identifying patterns and insights. 14:06 Creativity, imagination, and the value of contemplative states. 16:25 Applying dreamwork principles to relationship challenges. 19:31 Inner conflict, projection, and energetic shifts in relationships. 24:05 Linking inner awareness to relationship dynamics. 28:53 The essentials of effective dream journaling. 30:58 Benefits of detailed dream recall and handwriting practices. 35:11 Shifting relationship patterns through dream awareness. 39:45 Perspective-taking and empathy through dream-inspired creativity. 42:31 Navigating mystery and uncertainty in relationship communication. 48:18 Best practices for couples exploring dreams together. Your Checklist of Actions to Take Record Your Dreams: Write down your dreams in detail as soon as you wake up, resisting the urge to edit or judge the content. Reflect Without Editing: Practice non-editing and non-judging by documenting all aspects of your dream, including emotions, images, and phrases, to foster honest self-inquiry. Identify Emotional Themes: Look for recurring emotions or patterns in your dreams, such as anger or anxiety, which may point to unresolved inner conflicts. Apply Dream Insights to Waking Life: If you notice yourself using strong language (e.g., "nightmare boss") in daily life, pause to examine your emotional response and recalibrate internally. Practice Waking Dream Exercises: Revisit challenging dream scenarios while awake, imagining new responses—like facing a monster instead of running—to shift internal dynamics. Acknowledge All Facets of Self: Recognize that different dream symbols represent multiple aspects of yourself, helping you better understand your reactions and behaviors. Share Dreams Mindfully With Partners: When discussing dreams with your partner, speak from your own perspective (e.g., "If it were my dream...") and avoid interpreting their experience as fact. Embrace Curiosity and Mystery: Approach both your dreams and your partner with openness to not knowing, allowing for shared exploration and growth even through uncertainty.

Welcome to "Travel to Listen," a new Unpacked series hosted by veteran music journalist Tim Chester. Over four episodes rolling out every other week, Tim takes us into the cities where music is more than entertainment—it's the shortcut to a place's soul. This week, he heads to Minneapolis to hear how a community center, a cold climate, and a once-in-a-generation genius combined to create one of the most distinctive sounds in American music, plus how the city is celebrating a decade since Prince's passing. In this episode How the Minneapolis sound emerged from the Great Migration, housing segregation, rock radio, and a community center called The Way, where a teenage Prince jammed alongside Morris Day and Terry Lewis Why Paul Peterson (dubbed St. Paul by Prince himself) believes the Minneapolis sound is joyous, funky, and built to last, and how his supergroup, the Minneapolis Funk All-Stars, is carrying it forward The story of historian Kristen Zschomler: how grief over Prince's death led her to track 50+ locations across Minneapolis where he lived, worked, and recorded, and her ongoing mission to get them on the National Register of Historic Places What Prince mastered at his childhood home in North Minneapolis. Plus, why Sound 80, the studio where he cut his first demo tapes at 19, was the launchpad for everything that followed How to experience Minneapolis in 2026: from Paisley Park to First Avenue, Bunkers Music Bar to the Dakota, and the five-day Prince Celebration festival in June marking the 10th anniversary of Prince's death Meet this week's guests Paul Peterson is a musician, songwriter, and former Prince collaborator, dubbed "St. Paul" by the Purple One himself. He was a member of The Time and The Family, appeared in Purple Rain, and is now the leader of the Minneapolis Funk All-Stars, an all-star alumni supergroup dedicated to keeping the Minneapolis sound alive. Kristen Zschomler is a historian and co-founder of the International Center 4 Prince Studies. She gives guided tours of Prince's Minneapolis and created Sound Around Tours, a self-guided audio tour app. She has researched and documented over 50 locations tied to Prince's life and work, and has successfully advocated for two of them to be added to the National Register of Historic Places. Guest host Tim Chester is a freelance travel and culture writer who has spent the past 20 years exploring the world through the lens of music. His reporting has appeared in NME, Spin, and Afar, and his travels have taken him from Manhattan to Malawi and Beijing to Berlin in search of the festivals, scenes, and stories that reveal a city's soul.

Sound 80 Studios—the recording studio where a 19-year-old Prince cut the demo tapes that landed him his Warner Brothers contract. First Avenue—the venue Prince made famous in Purple Rain (he also recorded the song there, performing it live for the first time on that stage).

Nichole Bigley welcomes Dr. Bonnie Buckner — founder and CEO of the International Institute for Dreaming and Imagery® — on A Psychic's Story to explore how dreams, intuition, and inner imagery connect to deeper insight and guidance. Bonnie shares how dreaming is not random, but a language of experience — reflecting both what is happening within and the parts of us that may not yet be fully recognized. Through her work, she introduces the concept of the Secret Mind, a space of inner knowing that becomes more accessible through dreams and imagery. She also shares how early experiences shaped her path, including powerful dreams in childhood, and how a lifelong connection to dreaming evolved into the work she does today. Together, Nichole and Bonnie explore how dreams can offer clarity, reveal potential, and support both personal and professional decision-making — as well as how people can begin to strengthen their connection to dreaming (while awake and asleep) over time. This episode is a reminder that the answers you're seeking may already exist within you — and that your dreams may be one of the ways they come through. Listen to it to hear: What dreams actually are and why they occur. How dreaming connects to intuition and psychic ability. The meaning of the Secret Mind and how it influences awareness. How dreams reflect both challenges and untapped potential. Ways to begin remembering and working with dreams more intentionally.

In this deep dive into the Hulu phenomenon The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives, host Laura is joined by licensed marriage and family therapist Ashley Buckner to peel back the layers of drama and reveal the complex psychological machinery underneath. The duo explores how the Mormon influencer pipeline was born from a culture of polished aesthetics and public testimony, and why the sudden shift in financial power—where women become primary breadwinners in patriarchal households—creates such volatile relational friction. From the Momtok aesthetic to the systemic roots of oversharing, this episode examines how religious conditioning prepares women for the camera while simultaneously stifling their personal development.Beyond the viral TikToks, the conversation tackles the heavy reality of identity foreclosure and arrested development, explaining why early marriage often leads to acting out later in life. Buckner provides a compassionate, trauma-informed perspective on the cast's experiences, specifically looking at somatic symptoms of sexual trauma and the ways purity culture inflates and weaponizes the concept of cheating. Whether you are a fan of the show or a survivor of a high-control group, this episode offers a frank discussion on generational trauma, the lack of boundaries inherent in confession culture, and why some therapists actually recommend this reality TV trainwreck as a legitimate tool for deconstructing religious trauma.Share your purity culture stories with us by leaving a voicemail or sending your story to us!This podcast is brought to you by the Center for Trauma Resolution and Recovery: an online trauma coaching company whose practitioners are trauma informed and trauma trained to work with individuals, couples and families who have experienced high control religion, cults, and religious trauma.
