Philosopher Stefan Molyneux takes a call from a man who says he is a gambling addict, has a long stutter, and still lives with his father after 15 years of shame and debt. He looks at the caller's strict and sometimes violent childhood, the bullying, and the family pattern of wanting something for nothing, then ties the gambling back to a search for the care that was missing early on.JOIN ME IN NASHVILLE SEPTEMBER 12! https://wordwardebate.com/Use code STEFAN for 10% off!GET FREEDOMAIN MERCH! https://shop.freedomain.com/SUBSCRIBE TO ME ON X! https://x.com/StefanMolyneuxFollow me on Youtube! https://www.youtube.com/@freedomain1GET MY NEW BOOK 'PEACEFUL PARENTING', THE INTERACTIVE PEACEFUL PARENTING AI, AND THE FULL AUDIOBOOK!https://peacefulparenting.com/Join the PREMIUM philosophy community on the web for free!Subscribers get 12 HOURS on the "Truth About the French Revolution," multiple interactive multi-lingual philosophy AIs trained on thousands of hours of my material - as well as AIs for Real-Time Relationships, Bitcoin, Peaceful Parenting, and Call-In Shows!You also receive private livestreams, HUNDREDS of exclusive premium shows, early release podcasts, the 22 Part History of Philosophers series and much more!See you soon!https://freedomain.locals.com/support/promo/FREEDOMAIN2026
Send us Fan MailBullying rarely looks like the movie version, and that's exactly why it can do so much damage before an adult ever notices. We start a new Brain-Based Parenting series by getting painfully specific about what bullying is and what it is not, so you can stop guessing and start seeing the patterns that matter: intentional harm, repetition, and a power imbalance.Today we walk through the major types of bullying parents and caregivers need to recognize: physical bullying that can be subtle, verbal bullying that sticks for years, social bullying that weaponizes exclusion, and cyberbullying that follows kids home through group chats, anonymous apps, and constant notifications.We also tackle hazing and why “initiation” often equals humiliation, especially when a child's need to belong gets used against them. Then we shift to practical parenting: warning signs your child might be targeted, how to tell normal peer conflict from one-sided bullying, why some bullies look like angels around adults, and how social media changes the speed and scale of harm. If you want clearer bullying prevention tools, better conversations at home, and a stronger sense of what to do next, this one will help.Subscribe for the rest of the series, share this with a parent who needs it, and leave a five-star review so more families can find Brain-Based Parenting.Contact:podcasts@calfarley.org To Donate: https://secure.calfarley.org/site/Donation2?3358.donation=form1&df_id=3358&mfc_pref=TTo Apply:https://apply.workable.com/cal-farleys-boys-ranch/j/25E1226091/For More Information about Cal Farley's Boys Ranch:https://www.calfarley.org/Music:"Shine" -NewsboysCCS License No. 9402
In this episode, we explore why mystery isn't something to eliminate from life — it may be the very thing that keeps us moving, connecting, hoping, and growing. Beginning with a two-year mystery involving peanut shells appearing outside a house, the conversation expands into relationships, neuroscience, detective stories, fear, curiosity, and the courage to enter the unknown.Topics include:Why humans are drawn to mysteries, whodunits, crosswords, and haunted housesThe psychology of curiosity and how uncertainty activates the brainWhy new relationships feel electric and emotionally aliveThe difference between healthy mystery and painful uncertaintyHow “let's find out” can become a philosophy for livingWhy certainty can sometimes lead to boredom, paralysis, or emotional deadnessReflections on rejection, risk-taking, creativity, science, and wonderThe idea that hope only exists when the future remains unwrittenMysteries(Listen) Mistletoe Murders: https://shorturl.at/qftcN(Read) Fresh Water For Flowers: https://shorturl.at/mcjtL(Watch) Chestnut Man: https://shorturl.at/R5qxKThrive With Leo Coaching: If you want to reduce your psychological pain, regain your purpose and forge your own path, go to www.thrivewithleo.com to begin your journey.If you or anyone you know is considering suicide or self-harm, or is anxious, depressed, upset, or needs to talk, there are people who want to help:In the US: Crisis Text Line: Text CRISIS to 741741 for free, confidential crisis counseling.

Comedians Clare O'Kane, Alex Ptak, and Jeremy Kaplowitz explore the mysterious land of Quora.com to answer life's questions. This week's questions include: Why does bullying make me feel great? My 13-year-old daughter smells like fish. How do I confront her? Narcissist: "I'm important. Recognise me!
Send us Fan MailNobody likes a bully! One of the reasons myself and many others became cops was to protect those who couldn't protect themselves. That's what cops should do! But, what happens when your own sheriff's department turns on you and becomes the bully? What do you do when your bosses and teammates turn on you? Where do you turn?My returning guest today, former Sheriff's Deputy Bridget Truxillo, was a sheriff's deputy in Florida for years. She worked undercover in the narcotics unit and was also the department's first and only female SWAT operator. Unfortunately, she was the victim of workplace harassment, bullying, and discrimination. She just ‘took it' until her own department drove her to resign. Bridget Truxillo went on to the next chapter of her life and became an attorney. That firsthand experience is why she founded Lady Law Shield, a firm built specifically to give law enforcement officers and first responders legal guidance on the employment issues they run into at work — things like workplace disputes, retaliation, and the fallout that can follow difficult decisions made on the job. Bridget works at the point where the job and the law collide, helping officers protect their careers while making sense of a system most attorneys don't understand from the inside. This conversation takes lots of unexpected twists and turns that I think you will find useful if you are a cop or if you want an insider look into the confusing and sometimes cruel world of law enforcement. It was a treat talking to Bridget again and hearing her amazing story of resilience and how she is of service to the law enforcement community.In today's episode, we discuss:· Bridget's beginnings in law enforcement.· What her rookie year looked like. · Being brought into undercover work after only having one year on the job.· How and why she tried out and earned a spot on the SWAT team.· How was she treated being the only female on the SWAT team? · Being the victim of workplace harassment and discrimination and how she dealt with it.· What led to her decision to resign from law enforcement? · How can we as cops transition from being a cop to civilian life seamlessly? Is it possible?· What she sees as the biggest mistakes cops make transitioning into civilian life.· Her work as an attorney, founding Lady Law Shield, helping first responders who are victims of workplace harassment and discrimination.All of this and more on today's episode of the Cops and Writers podcast.Visit Bridget at her law firm, Lady Law Shield.Check out Bridget at the following conferences!Rise: Women in Policing | San Diego | September 2026 Tuesday, September 8, 2026 to Friday, September 11, 2026.

Raising girls in an age of smartphones and early sexualisation is tough and in this complex arena, parenting educator Maggie Dent says we can't leave these lessons to chance.Growing up Maggie was a tomboy and noticed when she was treated differently from little boys, who were allowed to be their exuberant selves when she was not.She can clearly recall her indignation at being made to wear a dress as a little girl.The process of raising girls has changed since Maggie was a child, but there are new challenges today like smartphone usage and unwanted sexualisation of young girls, among others.She says there are core lessons we can learn to face these challenges and raise confident and well-adjusted girls.Further informationThis episode of Conversations was first broadcast in 2022.Girlhood: raising our little girls to be healthy, happy and heard is published by Pan MacmillanThis episode explores parenting, daughters, young girls, raising girls, smartphones, early sexualisation, psychology, emotions, mothers, fathers, aunties, friends, teachers, attention, focus, listening, guidance, self-esteem, anxiety, bullying, teenagers, support.To binge even more great episodes of the Conversations podcast with Richard Fidler and Sarah Kanowski go the ABC listen app (Australia) or wherever you get your podcasts.

Bullying today looks very different than it did just a generation ago—and parents of girls are feeling the weight of navigating it all. In this episode of the Raising Godly Girls Podcast, host Natalie Ambrose welcomes back researcher, speaker, and author Brooks Gibbs for an honest and eye-opening conversation about bullying in all its modern forms. Together, they explore the science behind childhood aggression and unpack what families need to know about in-person bullying, relational aggression, cyberbullying, sextortion, and emerging threats like AI deepfake harassment. Brooks shares research-based insight into why bullying happens, how it uniquely affects adolescent girls, and what parents can do to respond with wisdom rather than fear. This episode also equips Christian families with practical tools to help girls build resilience, navigate peer pressure, and ground their identity in Christ—even when social dynamics feel cruel or overwhelming. Parents will gain confidence to address digital risks, guide healthy boundaries, and foster empathy and courage rooted in Biblical truth. If you're raising a daughter in today's complex social and digital world, this conversation offers clarity, hope, and actionable guidance to help her thrive with faith and confidence.

How do sports shape the values our children carry into adulthood?In this episode of the Where Parents Talk podcast, host Lianne Castelino speaks to award-winning sports journalists Donovan Bennett (CBC Sports) and Kate McKenna (TSN, CTV's The Social). The couple share how working in sports has impacted the way they are raising their two young sons.From navigating healthy competition and emotional resilience to balancing screen time, encouraging teamwork, and redefining modern masculinity, Donovan and Kate offer thoughtful, real-world parenting insights rooted in both their professional and personal lives. They discuss the lasting life lessons sports can teach, the importance of positive role models, why youth sports should prioritize participation over performance, and how parents can foster confidence, empathy and inclusion in today's rapidly changing world.Takeaways:Navigating the complexities of parenting amidst hormonal changes in children requires effective communication and discipline.The impact of device usage and social media on children's emotional health is a pressing concern for today's parents.Promoting independence in children involves teaching them about consent and healthy relationships from an early age.Bullying remains a significant issue in sports culture, and parents must address it proactively with their children.Physical health and emotional well-being are intertwined, especially during the formative years of adolescence.Encouraging participation in sports can foster resilience and teamwork, countering the pressure of a win-at-all-costs mentality.This podcast is for parents, guardians, teachers and caregivers to learn proven strategies and trusted tips on raising kids, teens and young adults based on science, evidenced and lived experience.You'll learn the latest on topics like managing bullying, consent, fostering healthy relationships, and the interconnectedness of mental, emotional and physical health.Links referenced in this episode:• whereparentstalk.comCompanies mentioned in this episode:CBCTSNCTVRaptorsTempoPWHLNWSLOttawa RapidLewis HamiltonSerena WilliamsShae Gilgeous AlexanderJared McCainNatalie Achonwa

This episode is part of my Old but Gold series, where I revisit some of my earlier podcasts that are still completely relevant for your SBR exam today. The recording may be from the archives, but the knowledge and exam technique are every bit as useful now.Ethics is guaranteed to matter in SBR, particularly in question two. In this episode, I take you through the five ethical principles and, more importantly, explain how ethics is actually examined. This is not about simply listing the principles. It is about spotting ethical issues in a practical accounting scenario and linking what is happening back to the ethical code.You'll learn how to identify issues such as lack of professional competence, deliberate manipulation, threats and inducements, and how to turn those observations into marks. I also explain why you should deal with the accounting treatment first, before discussing the ethics, and how giving sensible advice — including escalation, seeking independent advice and, ultimately, resignation — can strengthen your answer.Thanks for listening to this episode of Pass Your SBR ACCA Exams with Tom Clendon.If you'd like to view the exam question on screen and see my working, subscribe to the YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/@tomclendonSBR.For access to on-demand support and guidance for your ACCA SBR Journey, visit my website to see my current course offering: https://tomclendon.co.uk/.Chapters (0:00) Old but Gold introduction(0:41) Why ethics matters in SBR(1:25) The five ethical principles(2:31) How ethics is actually examined(3:01) Deal with the accounting first(3:26) Errors, competence and deliberate manipulation(5:34) Bullying, bribery and professional behaviour(6:32) Giving advice in an ethics answer(7:34) Escalation, independent advice and resignation(9:03) Exam strategy and practising question two
What should you do when you discover your own daughter is the one hurting someone else? No parent wants to receive the phone call, text message, or conversation revealing that their child has been unkind—or worse, has developed a pattern of bullying another girl. While those moments can stir embarrassment, defensiveness, or even shame, they also present a powerful opportunity for discipleship. In this episode, Rachael Culpepper and Natalie Ambrose encourage Christian parents to respond with courage, humility, and a heart committed to both truth and restoration. Continuing the Raising Godly Girls back-to-school series on bullying, Rachael and Natalie discuss the important distinction between isolated unkindness and repeated bullying behavior, why secrecy allows harmful patterns to grow, and how parents can lovingly guide a daughter toward confession, repentance, and reconciliation. Through a thoughtful Raising Godly Girls Minute from AHG Founder & Executive Director Emeritus Patti Garibay, listeners are reminded that telling the truth isn't an act of betrayal—it's often the very first step toward healing for everyone involved. The conversation also offers practical, Gospel-centered guidance for parents navigating these difficult situations, including acknowledging the hurt caused, praying for wisdom and discernment, understanding the full scope of the behavior, involving the appropriate adults, and encouraging a daughter to take responsibility for her actions. Rather than minimizing or excusing sinful behavior, Christian parents have the privilege of demonstrating God's mercy by helping their daughters walk the path of genuine repentance and lasting restoration. If you've ever wondered how to respond when your daughter makes a poor choice, this episode offers hope-filled encouragement that God doesn't waste our parenting challenges. Even difficult conversations can become opportunities to point our girls toward the transforming grace of Jesus Christ. Three Things to Consider: Address harmful behavior with honesty and grace. Accountability is an act of love that points your daughter toward lasting heart transformation. Pray for wisdom before responding. Ask God to help you see the full situation clearly and guide your daughter with both truth and compassion. Pursue restoration, not simply consequences. Genuine confession, repentance, forgiveness, and reconciliation often take time, but they reflect the heart of the Gospel.

"I used to be the mean girl." --A Confession most people would take to the grave but that's exactly how Arzo opens up this week's episode—and what follows is one of the most honest, uncomfortable conversations Jayna has ever had on the show. Our host shares a bullying story of her own—one she's never told publicly—and together they dig into a question worth sitting with: what if the "bad kid" isn't the one who deserves less compassion, but more? This episode isn't about excusing bullying. It's about understanding it—and proving that people, even the ones we've written off, are capable of real change. This isn't a conversation that's only meant for highschoolers. Bullying doesn't end at graduation. It just gets sneakier. Whether you've been bullied, been the bully, or just believe people deserve room to grow—this conversation will stay with you.

When does unkind behavior cross the line into bullying—and how can Christian parents respond with both wisdom and grace? As a new school year begins, many parents wonder how to prepare their daughters for the complex social dynamics they'll inevitably encounter. While every unkind comment isn't bullying, repeated patterns of intimidation, exclusion, or harm can leave lasting wounds if left unaddressed. In this timely episode, Rachael Culpepper and Natalie Ambrose equip Christian parents to recognize the difference between everyday conflict and true bullying—and to respond with confidence rooted in a Biblical Worldview. Together, Rachael and Natalie explore why every person deserves dignity as an image-bearer of God, how bullying often takes shape through repeated relational patterns, and why middle school girls are especially vulnerable to navigating unhealthy peer dynamics and cyberbullying. Through a thoughtful Raising Godly Girls Minute from AHG Founder & Executive Director Emeritus Patti Garibay, parents are also encouraged to recognize the warning signs of unhealthy friendships and help their daughters identify red flags before harmful patterns become deeply rooted. The conversation offers practical, Gospel-centered guidance for families walking through bullying, including how to validate a daughter's pain without allowing her to embrace a victim identity, pray for wisdom and discernment, assess the situation carefully, involve trusted adults when necessary, and advocate courageously while still pursuing Biblical forgiveness when appropriate. Throughout the episode, listeners are reminded that protecting a daughter and extending Christlike grace are not opposing ideas—they can faithfully coexist. Whether your daughter attends public school, private school, homeschool, or a co-op, this back-to-school conversation will equip you to foster open communication, strengthen her confidence in Christ, and help her build healthy friendships grounded in truth, loyalty, and love. Three Things to Consider: Learn to distinguish between isolated unkindness and ongoing bullying. Patterns of repeated harm require thoughtful, proactive intervention. Create a safe place for your daughter to share her experiences. Listen carefully, ask wise questions, and seek God's guidance before responding. Advocate for your daughter with courage while modeling biblical forgiveness, trusting that God can bring healing, wisdom, and restoration even after painful experiences.

When a boss's email, meeting request, or tone of feedback feels disproportionately intense, it may not be about the present moment alone. For many people, workplace dynamics can quietly reactivate older emotional patterns tied to childhood experiences of criticism, invisibility, powerlessness, or conditional approval. This episode explores how that happens—and how to recognize when the nervous system is responding to the past, not just the job.In this episode:Why authority figures at work can unconsciously resemble early caregiversHow simple workplace feedback can trigger shame, fear, or collapseThe role of childhood experiences in shaping adult stress responsesWhy “professionalism” can sometimes override emotional self-protectionHow to tell the difference between present-day feedback and old emotional memoryWhat it means to stay grounded when the body reacts before the mind can interpretThrive With Leo Coaching: If you want to reduce your psychological pain, regain your purpose and forge your own path, go to www.thrivewithleo.com to begin your journey.If you or anyone you know is considering suicide or self-harm, or is anxious, depressed, upset, or needs to talk, there are people who want to help:In the US: Crisis Text Line: Text CRISIS to 741741 for free, confidential crisis counseling.

Host Pete Deeley welcomes Coach Levi Frank to The Jiu-Jitsu Mindset, shares updates on Submission Coffee sponsoring the Momentum Martial Arts Competition Team and the ad-free My Jiu Jitsu Journey app, then explores how martial arts transformed Levi's life. Levi explains he lacked confidence before MMA/jiu-jitsu and was influenced by watching UFC, school bullying, and a difficult relationship with his older brother. He credits Professor Darian Cobon with changing his worldview and mindset, replacing false security with confidence built from training and work, helping him calm overthinking and improve daily life. Levi argues competition is necessary because it tests training and changes people mentally regardless of outcome. He recounts a memorable amateur MMA TKO against a striker, following Darian's guidance to secure mount and finish with ground-and-pound. Levi also describes the impact of teaching kids and seeing dramatic confidence and life changes in students, and jokingly adopts the nickname "Super Billy Gilly" for his love of the guillotine. 00:00 Welcome and Sponsors 01:14 Life Without Martial Arts 02:39 Bullying and Early Motivation 04:03 Coach Darian Mindset Shift 05:26 Confidence Beyond the Mats 08:55 Why Competition Matters 11:43 Most Memorable MMA Fight 14:35 Ring vs Schoolyard Violence 18:39 Teaching Kids and Raising Lions 21:21 Gym Transformations and Wins 23:54 Super Billy Gilly Name 24:39 Closing and Next Meetup

A lot to get into this week, with three different instances of actors pulling out of shows because they simply got bullied out of it. Tons of casting, and a long look at this week's grosses!
When intrusive thoughts feel like a war zone, the goal isn't to defeat every thought—it's to establish a ceasefire. Just as peace agreements are more likely to hold when neutral third parties monitor them, our mental peace is more sustainable when therapists, friends, journals, or mindfulness practices help us observe thoughts without escalating them.Key Takeaways: Intrusive thoughts can feel like repeated violations of an internal ceasefire.A neutral third party helps monitor, interpret, and de-escalate mental conflict.Therapists, trusted friends, journaling, and meditation can serve as peacekeepers.The goal is not to eliminate thoughts, but to prevent them from triggering emotional retaliation.Healing comes from creating distance between the thought and the response.Thrive With Leo Coaching: If you want to reduce your psychological pain, regain your purpose and forge your own path, go to www.thrivewithleo.com to begin your journey.If you or anyone you know is considering suicide or self-harm, or is anxious, depressed, upset, or needs to talk, there are people who want to help:In the US: Crisis Text Line: Text CRISIS to 741741 for free, confidential crisis counseling.

We're breaking down the "vlog life" drama as a husband begs his wife to stop turning their home into a content studio and keep the kids off camera to protect their privacy. The phones blow up when a Department of Defense undercover agent calls in to share wild stories about catching terrorists in the military and explains why he won't even let his own family post photos of his daughter. Don't You Know I'm Local, so you know we had to keep it real while investigating whether some famous "YouTube families" are actually renting kids to keep the views coming in! We also react to a viral mom's attempt to teach her daughter "polite" comebacks that the crew agrees are way too weak for the back-to-school trenches. Finally, Play Ball dives into the chaos of the Argentina vs. Spain World Cup brawl and why FIFA's "slap on the wrist" suspensions for preseason matches feel like a total scam. It's a wild ride through military secrets, "Department of Doofus" moments, and parenting advice gone wrong!

Hope is often mistaken for a feeling of optimism, but for many people it looks much quieter: the decision to stay alive and keep going even when nothing feels certain. In this episode, we explore how hope is less about feeling inspired and more about choosing, day after day, to remain open to the possibility that life can change. Sometimes the most meaningful act is not thriving—it's surviving.Key TakeawaysHope is not a mood; it is a decision.You do not need certainty to keep going.Survival is a meaningful achievement.Choosing “one more day” is an act of courage.Staying alive preserves the possibility of connection, healing, and purpose.Quiet hope often sounds like: “I'm not done yet.”Thrive With Leo Coaching: If you want to reduce your psychological pain, regain your purpose and forge your own path, go to www.thrivewithleo.com to begin your journey.If you or anyone you know is considering suicide or self-harm, or is anxious, depressed, upset, or needs to talk, there are people who want to help:In the US: Crisis Text Line: Text CRISIS to 741741 for free, confidential crisis counseling.
