Mayor Zohran Mamdani's speech about balancing NYC's budget raised a lot of eyebrows when Zohran Mamdani mentioned a default plan that would include raising property taxes for middle-class New Yorkers if his original plan to tax the wealthy doesn't go through. Late-night host Stephen Colbert went on a rant at CBS for canning an interview with Trump critic James Talarico. Mark interviews Boston radio host Howie Carr. Howie begins by arguing that the Obama Administration was a massive failure. Mark and Howie analyze how the Clintons are reacting to the files and also how the testimony could go. Our Charity Auction winner for hunger, Irving Goldfarb, joined Mark in the studio to discuss his business and the aspirations of Mark's show. Rosie O'Donnell has come back to the USA after she said she wasn't, due to President Trump, and came to visit her family. The John F. Kennedy Jr. miniseries is performing well with viewers. Mark interviews author Ann Coulter. Ann explains the reason she said a few years ago that former Senator Joseph McCarthy gets a bad rap. Former President Bill Clinton has historically invoked it as a negative benchmark for political attacks, labeling aggressive, partisan, or smear-based tactics as "McCarthyism." He notably used this comparison to criticize Republicans in 1992, 2012, and 2026 and make them look bad. Ann wrote about all this and explained in detail what she saw and meant about how Bill Clinton navigated his political career to bash McCarthy's actions and put him as the reason Republicans are the way they are today.

If you've ever told yourself, “Other moms handle this better than I do,” this episode is for you. So many moms feel overwhelmed—and then feel ashamed for feeling overwhelmed. Like if we were more organized, more disciplined, or better at self-care, we wouldn't be so on edge all the time. But what if overwhelm isn't a personal failure? In this episode of the No Guilt Mom Podcast, I'm joined by neuroscience-based coach Emelia Ferreira to talk about what actually happens to a woman's brain during motherhood—and why telling yourself to “just calm down” doesn't work. We unpack how motherhood rewires your brain for survival, how overwhelm becomes conditioned over time, and why so many traditional parenting and self-care strategies miss the mark for moms. This conversation is validating, eye-opening, and deeply reassuring—especially if you've ever wondered what's wrong with you. What You'll Learn in This Episode 1. Why motherhood changes your brain—and why that's not a bad thing Your brain becomes more specialized and hypervigilant after having a baby. That constant mental load? It's not a flaw. It's your nervous system doing exactly what it was designed to do. 2. How overwhelm becomes “normal” for moms Without the community support mothers once had, our brains stay stuck in survival mode—while parenting, working, managing households, and carrying emotional labor. 3. Why overwhelm isn't a mindset problem You can't think your way out of something that's physiological. This is why self-care alone and willpower-based parenting strategies often fall short. 4. The connection between guilt, shame, and mom overwhelm That guilt you feel when you rest or step back? It's wired into a protective system meant to keep your child safe—not a sign you're doing motherhood wrong. 5. One small, realistic way to support your mom brain Emelia shares a simple breath-and-body-based practice that helps override overwhelm without adding another thing to your to-do lis Resources Mentioned Emilia Ferreira's neuroscience-based guide Learn more about No Guilt Mom Circle—where overwhelmed moms get parenting support that reduces burnout, not adds to it Learn more about your ad choices.

On this edition of The Dugout, Jacob is joined by Alex Moneypenny from The Different Knock to dissect the emotional fallout of the 0-0 draw against Nottingham Forest. Despite sitting seven points clear at the top, the vibes are complicated—so how do we hold two opposing truths at once? In this episode we discuss: The Premier League “Quality” Debate: Alex delivers a hot take on why the narrative that the league is “terrible” this year is wrong, arguing that the league has never been more compact or difficult. The Joy Deficit: Jacob explores the struggle of the modern fan experience—why does being top of the league feel like a grind, and is the “journey” actually enjoyable this season? The Gyökeres Inquest: An emotionally honest conversation about Viktor Gyökeres. Is it a “translation” issue from the Portuguese league, and should he be used as a “hero” substitute rather than a starter against low blocks? Tactical Philosophy: A deep dive into whether Mikel Arteta prioritizes “relationships over profiling” in his team selection, and how that might be stalling the attack. The San Siro Test: Looking ahead to Inter Milan—why players won't accept rotation for a Champions League anthem night, and the desperate need for Kai Havertz to return.

"I'll fix this when things calm down" is one of the most convincing lies we can tell ourselves about our business.  Because things don't calm down, they normalize. The workload, the pressure, and the vigilance can become the baseline. In this episode, we're breaking down why waiting for ease keeps you stuck and what actually creates room for change while the business is still working. Topics discussed in this episode include: Why waiting for things to calm down is a trap. How "working fine" still steals your time, energy, and pay. The real reason change feels risky. The small decisions that actually create room to change.

If someone has ever told you to calm down after divorce—and it made everything inside you feel louder, sharper, or more volatile—you're not broken.You're responding to a loss of connection.In this Thursday Panel Rant, Dawn and the crew get cheeky, honest, and deeply real about why “calm down” is one of the fastest ways to shut a woman down—and why it so often backfires in relationships after divorce.This episode explores:Why being told to calm down often feels like being told your feelings are inconvenientHow emotional suppression turns into explosive anger laterThe link between anxiety, anger, and broken trust after divorceHow gaslighting and dismissal train women to doubt their own realityThe difference between nervous system discomfort from growth vs. true emotional unsafetyWhy anger isn't the problem—it's informationThe panel also weaves in the concept of Martin Buber's I–Thou relationship dynamic—reminding us that real connection requires honoring both people's lived experience, not just managing the loudest discomfort in the room.Because here's the truth:Women don't need to calm down.They need to feel seen, understood, and safe enough to tell the truth.Instead of asking yourself to be quieter, smaller, or easier to handle, this episode invites a different question:What feels unsafe right now—for me, or for them?That question—asked with honesty instead of judgment—is often where regulation actually begins.This is not a polished episode.It's a lived one.A little ranty.A little funny.And deeply validating for any woman who was taught to silence herself to survive.Welcome to Panel Rant Thursday.Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/MyCoachDawnInstagram: (@dawnwiggins)Instagram: (@coachtiffini)On the Web: https://www.mycoachdawn.comA podcast exploring the journey of life after divorce, delving into topics like divorce grief, loneliness, anxiety, manifesting, the impact of different attachment styles and codependency, setting healthy boundaries, energy healing with homeopathy, managing the nervous system during divorce depression, understanding the stages of divorce grief, and using the Law of Attraction and EMDR therapy in the process of building your confidence, forgiveness and letting go.Support the show✨Join the Cocoon Community - your people are waiting! ✨ Stress-Less Flower Essence

Send us a textIn this episode of the Leadership Parenting Podcast, I'm talking about something almost every mom experiences but rarely feels safe admitting: moments when your emotions feel so big that you wonder, “What is wrong with me?”I explain why this happens from a nervous system perspective, how chronic stress and emotional load shrink our ability to regulate, and why big emotions are not a sign of weakness — they are actually your body's stress signature calling for care, safety, and compassion.Then I guide you through a simple, science-backed 3-step reset you can use anywhere — in your kitchen, your car, your bathroom, or your bed — to bring yourself out of emotional overwhelm and back into calm, grounded presence.This episode is for any mom who feels like she's carrying too much, feeling too much, and trying too hard to “hold it together.” You are not broken. You are overloaded. And this episode will show you how to meet yourself with gentleness instead of judgmentIf you'd like to get the show notes for this episode, head to: https://leighgermann.com

n today's Daily Shift, we explore a message many people heard growing up: "Calm down." Often, this was said before we were ever helped to feel safe, understood, or supported. When emotions rise, we're taught to control or suppress them. But regulation doesn't come from forcing yourself to calm down — it comes from safety. Your nervous system isn't broken or overreacting; it's responding to something it perceives as threatening or overwhelming. This episode is a gentle reminder that calming the body starts with creating safety, not pressure. In this episode, we explore: Why "calm down" often increases shame and frustration The difference between calming yourself and feeling safe How the nervous system responds to perceived threat Simple ways to offer yourself safety in the moment A gentle reminder from today's shift: You don't need to force calm Your nervous system is responding, not failing Safety comes before regulation Take a pause. Let this be a moment to soften and reconnect with yourself.

On this post-holiday Pregame episode of the Calm Down podcast, Erin and Charissa talk about the one thing about Christmas that they don't like; that it ends. That, along with the process of finding places to store all the Christmas plates! They talk about feeling uncomfortable when they see themselves on TV, and other things you learn when watching “game film”. Another question leads to a discussion about being comfortable with your own journey and the challenge of trying to see the positives of that journey in the moment. They talk about what they would do if they could do another job for a week - Charissa would like to be a kindergarten teacher and Erin would like to come back as a dancer on Taylor Swift’s next tour.

Journalist Ben Dreyfuss (writer of Calm Down and co-host of Central Air) joins us for a conversational grab bag: Zohran Mamdani's agenda; the Left's ideologues (and how to distinguish them from the cosplayers); the challenge of maintaining personal relationships across political divides; Luigi Mangione's appeal; the dearth of humor amongst Millennials; and more. If these topics leave you spinning down a dark apocalyptic hole of cynicism, remember (as Ben reminds us at the end of this episode): calm the f*ck down. And consider telling a joke or two.
