To what extent is drug addiction voluntary? In episode 162 of Overthink, Ellie and David chat with philosopher Hanna Pickard about her book, What Would You Do Alone in a Cage with Nothing but Cocaine? A Philosophy of Addiction. They discuss how the “broken brain model” of addiction emerged to combat the moral model of addiction and explore the consequences of both of these models. What drives some people into addiction? What does it mean to say that addiction is a brain disease? How should responsibility and blame fit into our understanding of this condition? And how do we identify when somebody's patterns of drug use have crossed the threshold into addiction? In the Substack bonus segment, your hosts think about the temporality of addiction and what it means to hold an “addict identity.” Works Discussed:Alan Leshner, “Addiction Is a Brain Disease, and It Matters”Gabor Maté, In the Realm of Hungry Ghosts: Close Encounters with AddictionHanna Pickard, What Would You Do Alone in a Cage with Nothing but Cocaine?

Dr. Hanna Pickard has written a revolutionary new paradigm for understanding addiction. Why do people with addiction use drugs self-destructively? Why don't they quit out of self-concern? Why does the rat in the experiment, alone in a cage, press the lever again and again for cocaine—to the point of death? In this pathbreaking book What Would You Do Alone in a Cage with Nothing But Cocaine?: A Philosophy of Addiction (Princeton UP, 2026), Johns Hopkins University professor Pickard proposes a new paradigm for understanding the puzzle of addiction. For too long, our thinking has been hostage to a false dichotomy: either addiction is a brain disease, or it is a moral failing. Pickard argues that it is neither, and that both models stifle addiction research and fail people who need help. Drawing on her expertise as an academic philosopher and her clinical work in a therapeutic community, Pickard explores the meaning of drugs for people with addiction and the diverse factors that keep them using despite the costs. People use drugs to cope with suffering—but also to self-harm, or even to die. Some identify as “addicts," while others are in denial or struggle with cravings and self-control. Social, cultural, and economic circumstances are crucial to explaining addiction—but brain pathology may also matter. By integrating addiction science with philosophy, clinical practice, and the psychology and voices of people with addiction themselves, Pickard shows why there is no one-size-fits-all theory or ethics of addiction. The result is a heterogeneous and humanistic paradigm for understanding and treating addiction, and a fresh way of thinking about responsibility, blame, and relationships with people who use drugs. Emily Dufton is the author of Grass Roots: The Rise and Fall and Rise of Marijuana in America (Basic Books, 2017). Her new book, Addiction, Inc.: Medication-Assisted Treatment and America's Forgotten War on Drugs, will be released in April 2026. Learn more about your ad choices.

Remembering Frank StaggLast week marked 50 years of the death of Frank Stagg on hunger strike in Wakefield Prison, in England. Events, including a black flag vigil and a march and rally were organised to remember the Mayo man. Gerry Kelly who was on hunger strike in England in the 1970s for over 206 days, during which he was force fed 167 times, gave the main oration in Ballina and spoke of Frank's great courage and commitment.I was in Long Kesh when Frank died on 12 February 1976 after 62 days on hunger strike. Britain's intransigence and in particular the obduracy of the then Home Secretary Roy Jenkins, ensured that Frank's fourth hunger strike would result in his death. As we walked around the Cage or sat in our cells the talk from when Frank embarked on his fast, was about his resolve and strength of character as on his own he faced the brutality of a British system determined to break him.Two years earlier we had watched as Frank's friend and comrade Michael Gaughan, another Mayo man, had died on hunger strike. Holy SmokeI used to smoke. I was very addicted to it. I smoked everything that was legal. I smoked a pipe for years. I liked the pipe. There is a certain ritual attached to pipe smoking. Filling your pipe requires special skills. It takes time. And care. Fill it too loosely and it will not last long. Too tightly and it will not burn at all. Most pipe smokers had a number of pipes. But there was always a favourite one. My favourites were invariably Kapp and Petersons. Particularly the bendy ones, favoured by Sherlock Holmes. Kapp and Peterson still have a shop in Dublin. Kapp and Peterson gets honourable mention in Samuel Beckett's Waiting For Godot. In Belfast Miss Morans in Church Lane, which is still doing business, was a favoured supplier of pipes and good tobacco.Pipe tobacco is of course a matter of choice and taste. And addiction. I was inclined towards heavier brands like Condor. The I graduated to War Horse, particularly War Horse plug tobacco. The preparation of this type of pipe filler requires a pen knife for cutting off little slices of tobacco. These were then rubbed between your hands until they were reduced to the desired consistency. This added to the ritual. It was probably theraputic. If thats not a contradiction. Ditto with the smell of pipe smoke. Back in the day pipe smokers were a fixed presence in pubs and at most social gatherings. Many people, barely visible in the clouds of smoke, would declare how much they liked the smell. The death of Nora ComiskeyIt was with sadness that I heard of the death last week of Nora Comiskey. Many Dublin republicans and some of us from Belfast and other parts knew Nora over many years. She was a former president and long-time activist in the 1916-1921 Club. This was a unique institution founded in the 1940s whose aim was to try and bring together some of those who fought on the pro and anti- Treaty sides in the Civil War. Many did, including Nora who had been in Fianna Fáil. Its founding charter is the 1916 Proclamation and among its objectives are a commitment to honour those who fought for Irish Freedom and who work for its achievement. It also seeks to contribute to the cause of an Ireland — united, independent and sovereign
On this episode we talk the Travolta and Cage masterpiece Face/Off. A pivotal movie in maximalist and bonkers cinema, John Woo's crowning achievement still remains getting the two most charismatic actors of a generation to go all out playing each other. A ballet of bullets, an influence on John Wick, and two defining performances from Travolta and Cage all have worked in its favor as an undeniable 90s classic.Other topics include Travolta and Cage's careers, Robert Duvall, Criterion collection and the state of streaming, new physical media, Mission Impossible, and revisiting Boogie Nights.Songs of the WeekWho'll Stand With Us?

My guest in this week's Book Club podcast is the philosophy professor Hanna Pickard, whose new book is What Would You Do Alone in a Cage with Nothing but Cocaine? A Philosophy of Addiction. She tells me why we need a new approach to ‘the puzzle of addiction'. She says the idea that addicts are helplessly in thrall to the compulsions of a ‘broken brain' is wrong, that we need to understand how sometimes using even if it's looks like killing you can make a sort of sense – and describes how her own one-off experience of morphine set her on the path of trying to change the way we think about drugs.Become a Spectator subscriber today to access this podcast without adverts.

Squeaks, Frank, Jon and Thomas cover a packed episode that jumps from dream low-stakes spin-off ideas (God of War politics, Fallout slice-of-life, and cozy Shire chaos) into real-world hype around the Spider-Noir trailer and how Nicolas Cage changes the whole vibe in the best way. From there, the crew breaks down standout PlayStation State of Play reveals, including what they want from a God of War trilogy remake, why Game Freak's new project has people paying attention again, and which upcoming titles actually look worth the time. Then the conversation shifts into a big streaming debate: weekly releases vs binge drops vs the hybrid "first 2–3 episodes, then weekly" model. They dig into what works for mystery box shows like WandaVision and Severance, what falls apart when the writing doesn't match the release strategy, and why some series thrive when fans have time to theory-craft between episodes. The episode wraps with network updates and weekly recommendations, including a Cyclops comic shoutout and a heartfelt nod to Stevie's retirement from Good Mythical Morning after 13 years.

The crew debates 00:10:16 What fans actually want: more detective noir or more superhero chaos? 00:12:20 PlayStation State of Play recap begins: overall reactions and standout reveals 00:13:24 God of War trilogy remake talk and why "remake" matters more than "remaster" 00:13:56 Game Freak frustration, Pokémon burnout, and why a new IP could reset expectations 00:14:47 Classic vibes: the pull of 2D action and Castlevania-style nostalgia 00:15:52 Kena: Bridge of Spirits sequel excitement and "30-minute gaming" for busy adults 00:17:02 Star Wars Galactic Racers and the return of pod-racing energy 00:17:24 Project Wilderness: rooster warriors, Korean fantasy roots, and "The Bird That Drinks Tears" curiosity 00:21:13 Ride-or-die studios: Rockstar, Blizzard talk, and Saber's trust factor 00:21:31 John Wick game discussion: expectations, violence, and the question of gameplay style 00:23:40 Severance and Apple ownership: what expansion could look like without killing the mystery 00:26:59 The goats, the branches, and why answers can end the show 00:28:04 Spin-off pitch: military uses of severance tech and the darker implications 00:29:51 Helldivers movie with Jason Momoa: comedy vs serious tone, and how to make it work 00:33:02 Main topic: weekly episodes vs binging vs hybrid release models 00:36:22 Why weekly wins for theorizing, community talk, and "watercooler" moments 00:39:36 The hybrid model: dropping 2–3 episodes first, then weekly 00:41:09 Binge model strengths: completion, momentum, and not forgetting the show exists 00:48:05 Which genres fit which release style? Mystery box, character drama, sitcoms, and action 00:57:19 Network updates: upcoming shows, format shifts, and what's next across the Geek Freaks Network 00:58:19 Recommendations: Cyclops comic spotlight and Stevie's Good Mythical Morning retirement tribute Key Takeaways Big franchises can feel fresh again with smaller stories that focus on everyday life, side characters, and worldbuilding instead of saving the universe. Spider-Noir looks like it's leaning into style and personality, and Nicolas Cage makes it feel like its own thing instead of "another Spider-Man." Prime Video's track record with adaptations is earning trust, even when the company itself is a mixed bag for fans. State of Play talk lands on a simple truth: remakes need to feel rebuilt, not just polished. Game Freak has goodwill to win back, and a new IP might be their best shot to prove they can still deliver quality. Release models matter because writing matters. A weekly show needs episodes that stand on their own, not just pieces of a long movie. Weekly releases fuel theorizing, discussion, and community engagement. Binge releases maximize momentum and completion. The "2–3 episode premiere, then weekly" approach can be the sweet spot when it's planned from the start. Memorable Quotes "I want a Stardew Valley set in the Fallout universe." "Nicolas Cage is not a Spider-Man… Spider-Man is being made into a Nicolas Cage character." "It's not a remaster. It's a remake." "Once we find out what's up with the goats, the show's over." "That's a watercooler moment because everybody was like, wait, what happened?"

The story of Jonah reveals three dangerous mindsets that can hinder believers from walking in God's heart. After witnessing a great revival in Nineveh, Jonah sits pouting because God showed mercy to 120,000 people. His response exposes the entitlement mentality, where we want God's grace for ourselves but resist extending it to others. The victim mentality keeps us trapped in bitterness and offense, making us unable to walk in victory. The comfort mentality prioritizes personal convenience over God's purposes, causing us to celebrate blessings while cursing the lessons that come with them. The book of Jonah ends unresolved, serving as a mirror for us to choose our own response to God's calling.

AI Video MADNESS! PUPPY KRYPTO! SPIDER-NOIR CAGE! DJ Wiedrich who has been on the Vodka Stream before joins in tonight to talk about his new original comicbook, GLITCH. We will have a the panel join to talk PUPPY KRYPTO, TMNT The Last Ronin reveal, and of course, SPIDER-NOIR! I will also be giving my full review of Crime 101 and some more AI videomadness.
In deze aflevering van Nerd Culture duiken we vol in noir-spinnen, mutant turtles en nostalgie met een hoofdletter N. Van een zwart-wit Nicolas Cage als Spider-Noir tot de geannuleerde, R-rated The Last Ronin die stiekem een vervolg had moeten zijn op de TMNT-film uit 1990; het is weer zo'n week waarin IP's botsen met creatieve ambities.We bespreken trailers, onverwachte updates en studio's die groot inzetten op hun kroonjuwelen: Paramount dat Turtle-power industrialiseert, Apple dat Severance volledig naar zich toetrekt, en Sony dat eindelijk beweging laat zien rondom Spider-Verse. Ondertussen blikken we terug op klassiekers, checken we nieuwe series en stellen we de vraag: wanneer is franchise-uitbreiding slimme wereldbouw… en wanneer wordt het puur machtsvertoon? Welkom bij Nerd Culture #246.Amazon dropt Spider-Noir TrailerWe duiken in het schaduwrijk van Spider-Noir, waarin Nicolas Cage opnieuw het web spint, maar dit keer in live-action. Geen standaard Spider-Man, geen Peter Parker, maar Ben Reilly als doorrookte privédetective in een depressie-era New York. Cage kanaliseert Humphrey Bogart, een vleugje Edward G. Robinson en – jawel – zelfs Bugs Bunny, en giet dat alles in een noir-jasje dat je zowel in kleur als in stijlvol zwart-wit kunt bekijken. Wat krijg je als je Marvel-mythologie mixt met jaren '30 film noir, radio-serial vibes en Hopper-achtige melancholie? In deze aflevering bespreken we hoe deze serie balanceert tussen pulp, kunst en comic book bombast — en of dit een creatieve heruitvinding is waar het genre op zat te wachten.Paramount gaat all-in op TMNTDaarnaast kijken we naar hoe Paramount vol inzet op Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles als compleet entertainment-universum. Onder nieuw Skydance-leiderschap wordt de franchise uitgerold over élke doelgroep: van de peutervriendelijke Teeny Mutant Ninja Turtles-YouTube-serie tot een volwassen proza-adaptatie van The Last Ronin, en een middle-grade boek met Splinter's Dojo. Daar blijft het niet bij. Mattel neemt vanaf 2027 de speelgoedlijn over, gekoppeld aan Mutant Mayhem 2 en een nieuwe live-action/CG-hybridefilm in 2028.

In this episode, we take a brief look at David. The Bible describes him as a "man after God's own heart." He was a skilled musician, a songwriter, poet and a humble man - but also a valiant leader/warrior who wasn't afraid to spill the blood of the enemies of Israel. What can we take away from his example that will make us valiant leader/warriors in the spiritual realm today?

Neoborn Caveman delivers a pro-humanity critique of compliance experiments reshaping choices into cages, exposing how banks, parking, and services add friction to analog options through app mandates while presenting digital paths as convenient, warns of inertia leading to total tracking where refusal becomes suspicious, highlights how each reasonable rung builds inescapable infrastructure linking to digital IDs and programmable currency, and urges embracing inconvenience now through cash use and analog insistence to preserve autonomy before alternatives vanish.Key TakeawaysCompliance relies on voluntary inertia.Friction disguises digital mandates.Analog alternatives become burdensome.Normalization expands control scope.Refusal signals wrongdoing in systems.Infrastructure locks in surveillance.Inconvenience preserves future options.Cash maintains independent choices.Awareness breaks gradual entrapment.Humanity requires deliberate resistance.Sound Bites"Have you noticed how we're living through the largest compliance experiment in human history, and most people think they're just getting better customer service?""The world is being reshaped so that certain choices become nearly impossible to make.""Many banks now require app-based authentication for anything beyond basic logins.""Don't have a smartphone? Well, you can visit a branch during business hours—assuming there's still one near you, and assuming you can get there when it's actually open.""It's friction disguised as security. Inconvenience packaged as protection.""Have you tried to park somewhere recently without an app? Tried to access certain government services without downloading something?""Each system, taken individually, seems reasonable. Each one offers an analog alternative. Technically.""But have you noticed how those alternatives work? They're slower. They require extra steps. They make you feel like you're being difficult.""What we're watching is a carefully constructed ladder where each rung seems reasonable in isolation.""Once the infrastructure is fully digital, fully tracked, fully programmable—asking nicely for your freedom back isn't going to cut it."Join the tea house at patreon.com/theneoborncavemanshow —free to enter, real talk, lives, no ads, no algorithms.keywords: compliance experiments, app mandates, analog friction, digital cage, voluntary control, surveillance normalization, digital ids, programmable currency, autonomy loss, resistance inconvenienceHumanity centered satirical takes on the world & news + music - with a marble mouthed host.Free speech marinated in comedy.Supporting Purple Rabbits.Viva los Conejos Morados.

A 19th-century engineering marvel promised perfect efficiency and airtight security—by turning an entire jail into a rotating machine. Instead, it became a symbol of mechanical hubris, human confinement, and the strange way technology can outlive its purpose.

Three years ago I interviewed my friend and occasional ACL contributor Gabe Bogart for Episode 29, our anniversary episode. We had such a good time we talked about doing a podcast called SLEPT ON IT, and so I sat on this episode for years, waiting for us to get off our asses and make it happen. No one ever asked why episode 30 was missing, so it feels right for an episode with this title to turn up years later. We discuss adventurous listening, the dangers of nostalgia, the hip hop renaissance of the 2020s, and much more.

Beloved, Heaven's Asking YOU and I to GROW UPHeaven has not moved away from us. The sacred has always been close. What has changed is us. There was a time when mystical experiences were ordinary when people like Theresa of Avila could casually mention being visited by an angel, and no one questioned her sanity. Everything was measured against the soul.How does this affect my eternal essence, not my bank account, not my comfort, not my preferences, but my soul. We lost that somewhere along the way in the age of reason, we became profoundly unreasonable. We began treating ourselves with such exquisite delicacy that we grew fragile instead of strong. We handed our power away to everything outside us, and in doing so, we distanced ourselves from the very source that once spoke to us through wind and fire.The most powerful tool you have is your words. Every word you choose is an act of creation. Words are not just descriptions. They build the world you live in. The Real Reason Mystical Experiences Stopped Being NormalWhen you frame an experience with resentment, with should, with omi, with hate, you anchor part of your soul in the past. That anchoring creates density in your body, slows your experience of time, blocks the flow of synchronicity.When you release those sticky words, when you forgive, when you reframe, when you choose love or neutrality, instead, energy snaps back into the present.Like a cut rubber band. Your cells lighten cause and effect accelerates health returns. This is not poetry. This is mystical law. We stand at a threshold unlike any in human history.For the first time ever, every living being on this planet is participating in a shared struggle for survival, climate, nuclear risk, collapsing ecosystems. These are not problems we can solve. While remaining unchanged problems have solutions that let us stay the same. These are predicaments, predicaments, demand metamorphosis.We must shift from the personal what I want, what I need, what I fear. To the impersonal, what serves the whole service is not sacrifice. It is the only real safety net. Now look at what we've done with our archetypal nature. We each have a archetype on a personal and collective level. And they have unconsciously inverted light and dark.Evil rarely arrives with horns anymore - Its seduces.It convinces you that surrendering your will is passion. That being drained is love. When the apparitions at Mego speak through the visionaries and say. Evil has come close to the earth. It is present. They are not predicting apocalypse. They're describing what is already here. Evil walks among us wearing the mask of desire, of self-actualization, of intensity, and the only defense is humility.The honest recognition that every one of us still has blind spots, still has triggers where darkness can slip in if we declare ourselves past it. Too proud or too evolved to look. We are leaving the age of great external teachers, the era of Jesus, of Buddha, of waiting for someone else to show us the way is closing.What opens now is the demand that we embody what we already know fluently without excuses. No more outsourcing our sovereignty to gurus or institutions or saviors. Each of us must become the living vessel of the truths we claim. So here is the work. Audit your inner vocabulary every day. Catch the words that keep you small, that keep you stuck, that keep you taking instead of giving practice seeing, IM personally ask of every situation what is trying to happen here beyond my personal stake.Assume there are still doors you haven't fully guarded and shift your orientation from taking to giving. Not because it's noble, but because it is the physics of survival in this new era. The sacred is still speaking. The veil is thin again, but this time heaven is asking us to meet it as mature, brave and unconditioned adults, as conscious co-creators who understand that every choice, every word, every refusal to change has consequences.We can no longer outsource or deny. We are not being punished. We are being invited to grow up, and the choice as always, is ours.Love you, KassandraPS: Ready to SHIFT your spirit and stand firm in your natural INTUITION?

LAPD Robbery-Homicide arrested Neo Langston—D4VD's close friend known online as NeoTheAsian—at his mother's home in Montana for failure to appear before the grand jury investigating the death of 15-year-old Celeste Rivas Hernandez. He's now in an LA jail on $60,000 bail. He's not the first witness prosecutors have had to chase down. A female witness went into hiding in December and faced a body attachment order. Manager Robert Morgenroth admitted under oath his priority was keeping D4VD's tour going, not calling police. The grand jury continues hearing witnesses through February 2026, and sources say prosecutor Beth Silverman is building toward murder charges. But what does the physical evidence actually reveal? A chainsaw still in its protective sheath. A burn cage incinerator capable of 1,600 degrees—boxed, unopened. Both discovered inside the Hollywood Hills home where D4VD was living when Celeste's dismembered body was found in his Tesla last September. Private investigator Steve Fischer's assessment: "Whatever happened here, this wasn't a finalized plan. She was not meant to be left in that Tesla. The plan got upended." Former FBI Special Agent Jennifer Coffindaffer analyzes what unused disposal tools suggest about intent versus execution, how advanced decomposition affects forensic analysis, and how circumstantial cases succeed or fail. Investigators have identified a second suspect who may have been involved "before, during, and after" Celeste's death. Digital evidence allegedly shows two people may have been present during a late-night trip to Santa Barbara County. The timeline matters: Celeste was last confirmed alive January 2nd, 2025. The Tesla was parked July 29th—the day D4VD left for tour. Her body was found September 8th, the day after what would have been her 15th birthday. D4VD has not been charged. He remains legally presumed innocent.#CelesteRivas #D4VD #NeoLangston #GrandJury #JenniferCoffindaffer #FBI #LAPDRobberyHomicide #HollywoodHills #TrueCrimeToday #JusticeForCelesteJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

You’d think terms like cage-free and free-range means the chickens we eat are frolicking happily in the fresh air under the shining sun, but you’d be so, so wrong. Cage-free is a huge improvement but free-range is lacking and both have a long way to go. Find out all about both in this classic episode.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
