On Friday's Mark Levin Show, there needs to be Republican unity ahead of the midterm elections. Any fraying or splintering—such as a handful of Republicans voting against President Trump's interests on key legislation—could lead to electoral losses, ended careers for some lawmakers, and two years of investigations and allegations plaguing the administration and supporters. Republicans must support the President's agenda, as Democrats are in a weak position with low ratings, but GOP disunity could hand them victories and drag down the party and conservative movement. Also, an Iranian regime collapse would reduce oil flows to Communist China from Iran and Venezuela. The Iranian people who are seeking freedom are enduring a horrendous police state amid widespread protests involving all ages, families, and backgrounds, despite being disarmed. The Iranian protestors need our help now, there needs to be immediate U.S. military action, without troops, to help. Later, there's an intentional invasion and a failure to act will lead to losing everything, as has happened in London, Paris, Canada, Australia, and now New York City. The Democrat Party is devoured by Stalinist and Islamist elements. There's a dark time in the country with escalating leftist violence backed by Democrat mayors and funded militias from billionaires and foreign entities like Qatar, aiming to overthrow the nation through groups like Cair. Finally, Jim Trusty calls in to break down the legal aspect of the ICE shooting in Minneopolis and Hamas supporters in NYC. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Peyman Askari joins us for a great chat about Canada and getting into and out of politics....   We get into the voting demographics in Canada, immigration, regulations, coming from Iran, the rule of law, protesting, PPC, Trumps Security Strategy, urbanization, and the lack of domestic arrests and what is happening with the Epstein files.   In the second half we chat about pensions and families, traditional migration, differences between the USA and Canada, the upcoming conflicts, leaky Canada, UNDRIP - and the UN destabilizing Canada, private property, common law, the problems with BC, BC politics, and yes even through all this you can change your life. I have come here to kick progressive ass and chew bubble gum. And I'm all out of bubble gum.   Peyman was born in Iran and came to Canada when he was six. He has always considered himself fortunate to be living in a Western country until covid when he started to notice an erosion of the rule of law. Since then, Peyman has run for federal office, and now hosts his own podcasts where he is trying to educate Canadians on the core issues facing this nation.  

I'm sitting down with microbiome expert Kiran Krishnan to explore a question I see come up all the time: why do hormones sometimes stop responding the way they used to? But what if the real issue isn't your hormones at all, rather what's happening in your gut? In this episode, we dig into the powerful gut-hormone connection. How can gut bacteria influence estrogen metabolism, inflammation, weight gain, and even mood? Why do so many women struggle more during perimenopause and menopause despite "doing all the right things"? We also talk about why hormone therapy sometimes backfires, how gut dysfunction quietly drives symptoms, and what most people completely miss when trying to "fix" hormones. If you've ever felt like your body is working against you, this conversation may change how you see everything. In this episode, we uncover: How your gut microbiome directly affects estrogen metabolism and hormone balance. Why inflammation and gut permeability sabotage hormone therapy results. What happens to the gut during perimenopause and menopause. How gut health influences weight gain, mood, and metabolic slowdown. Why fixing hormones often fails without addressing the gut first. Check out this episode to hear how supporting your gut may be the missing link to finally feeling better!     Sponsors Coupon KM20 to get 20% off your order of Vitali Skin Care!

FOLLOW RICHARD Website: https://www.strangeplanet.ca YouTube: @strangeplanetradio Instagram: @richardsyrettstrangeplanet TikTok: @therealstrangeplanet EP. #1304 ‘I'm In Here': When the Body Failed—but the Mind Didn't: A Story of Autism, Faith, and Telepathy What happens when the body fails—but consciousness remains fully intact? Tonight on Richard Syrett's Strange Planet, we examine a story modern science is deeply uncomfortable confronting. Katie Asher's journey begins in trauma and survival, then leads to her son Houston—severely neurologically injured, non-speaking, yet unmistakably present. When he communicates the sentence “I'm in here,” it isn't a revelation of awakening—but of recognition. Through supported spelling, Houston demonstrates advanced language, abstract reasoning, and a coherent spiritual worldview he was never taught—describing heaven, angels, and Christ—while his mother remains skeptical. Researchers documented the data. Filmmakers told part of the story. But the spiritual framework was left out. Tonight, we explore what happens when consciousness refuses to fit inside a materialist box. GUEST: Katie Asher is a writer, speaker, and advocate for non-speaking individuals whose cognitive and inner lives are routinely misunderstood. She is the co-author of The Book of Heaven, written with her son Houston, a work that challenges assumptions about intelligence, communication, and the nature of consciousness itself. Known for her intellectual honesty and initial skepticism, Katie brings a grounded, maternal, and rigorously self-critical perspective to questions of neuroscience, spirituality, and faith. Her family's story has drawn the attention of researchers and documentary filmmakers precisely because it resists easy categorization—and refuses to diminish the dignity of those who communicate differently.

In December 2025, Governor Kathy Hochul reached an agreement with the New York state legislature to pass the Medical Aid in Dying Act, which would legalize what proponents call "death with dignity" and what critics call physician-assisted suicide. About a dozen other states already permit doctors to prescribe lethal medication to terminally ill patients who request it. The state of Oregon pioneered this practice in 1994 and it has since spread across the Western world. Now, there are people who have an ailing parent or grandparent or, God forbid, a child who is genuinely suffering—suffering in agonizing ways that make the cessation of that suffering seem like the only humane response. It would be inhuman not to acknowledge the enormous emotional, psychological, and physical burdens of that pain, or to minimize it. But the question of physician-assisted suicide ultimately is one about medical ethics as upheld by the physician, the distorting market effects of this practice, and social policy. What happens when the state makes it possible for large numbers of people to receive this option from the very person whose profession calls on him to heal and not harm? What happens to the moral foundations of our culture when assisted death becomes something we learn to abide? The evidence from places like Canada and the Netherlands begins to answer those questions in deeply disturbing ways. What started as a carefully limited option for the terminally ill has expanded dramatically. In Canada, deaths from medically assisted dying rose from 4,480 in 2018 to over 10,000 in 2021—and by 2022 accounted for 4 percent of all deaths in the country. Patients are now approved for reasons of poverty, loneliness, and mental illness. Veterans seeking PTSD treatment are sometimes offered death instead. The physician and educator Leon Kass warned nearly 30 years ago that once we break the ancient taboo against doctors killing patients, the practice would prove "in principle unregulable." The evidence now seems to vindicate that warning. To discuss this topic, Mosaic's editor Jonathan Silver is joined by Aaron Rothstein, a neurologist at the University of Pennsylvania and a fellow in bioethics and American democracy at the Ethics and Public Policy Center. They discuss the origins of the modern euthanasia movement, and the disturbing reality of how euthanasia functions once legalized.

Audio taken from the live recording "5 Fasting Secrets that Unlock Miraculous Answers!" - https://youtu.be/EH2e9ylFZpEWhen we carefully study the Scriptures, we discover that fasting is never about merely missing meals. Fasting is a God ordained way where we voluntarily choose to humble ourselves, draw closer to God, and align our flesh with His will for our lives so that He can move in us, and through us, for us in greater power.In our study today, we will uncover five rarely taught secrets, not gimmicks, but biblical principles that position a believer for miraculous answers.Secret 1 - Fast to Seek God, Not a Result  Secret 2 - Fast in Humble Repentance  Secret 3 - Fast with Focused, Persistent Prayer  Secret 4 - Fast by Faith, Not by Formula  Secret 5 - Fast for Kingdom Purposes, Not Just Personal Comfort  Key Scriptures used in today's teaching: Joel 2:12-13 Other Scriptures referenced: Matthew 6:18; Luke 18:10-14; Isaiah 55:8-9Unless otherwise noted, most Scripture will be read from the New Living Translation (NLT) Bible.If you prayed with Tiff, click here https://lostlamb.org/ and let him know!  Be sure to check out the playlist “New Beginnings” - https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLsX8E19Azl58_FjxELPxjnsL8CAtmama4Be sure to check out the playlist “What Does the Bible Say about Fasting and Prayer” - https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLsX8E19Azl5_Y8XtlCEAv1ZZs474t9RhoThank you for listening, and subscribe for new content each week.

Genesis 22:1-14 / January 9-12, 2026 Letting go is always difficult. And the closer we are to the thing (or person) being released, the more difficult it is to let go.

In this episode of the Crazy Wisdom Podcast, host Stewart Alsop interviews Aurelio Gialluca, an economist and full stack data professional who works across finance, retail, and AI as both a data engineer and machine learning developer, while also exploring human consciousness and psychology. Their wide-ranging conversation covers the intersection of science and psychology, the unique cultural characteristics that make Argentina a haven for eccentrics (drawing parallels to the United States), and how Argentine culture has produced globally influential figures from Borges to Maradona to Che Guevara. They explore the current AI landscape as a "centralizing force" creating cultural homogenization (particularly evident in LinkedIn's cookie-cutter content), discuss the potential futures of AI development from dystopian surveillance states to anarchic chaos, and examine how Argentina's emotionally mature, non-linear communication style might offer insights for navigating technological change. The conversation concludes with Gialluca describing his ambitious project to build a custom water-cooled workstation with industrial-grade processors for his quantitative hedge fund, highlighting the practical challenges of heat management and the recent tripling of RAM prices due to market consolidation.Timestams00:00 Exploring the Intersection of Psychology and Science02:55 Cultural Eccentricity: Argentina vs. the United States05:36 The Influence of Religion on National Identity08:50 The Unique Argentine Cultural Landscape11:49 Soft Power and Cultural Influence14:48 Political Figures and Their Cultural Impact17:50 The Role of Sports in Shaping National Identity20:49 The Evolution of Argentine Music and Subcultures23:41 AI and the Future of Cultural Dynamics26:47 Navigating the Chaos of AI in Culture33:50 Equilibrating Society for a Sustainable Future35:10 The Patchwork Age: Decentralization and Society35:56 The Impact of AI on Human Connection38:06 Individualism vs. Collective Rules in Society39:26 The Future of AI and Global Regulations40:16 Biotechnology: The Next Frontier42:19 Building a Personal AI Lab45:51 Tiers of AI Labs: From Personal to Industrial48:35 Mathematics and AI: The Foundation of Innovation52:12 Stochastic Models and Predictive Analytics55:47 Building a Supercomputer: Hardware InsightsKey Insights1. Argentina's Cultural Exceptionalism and Emotional Maturity: Argentina stands out globally for allowing eccentrics to flourish and having a non-linear communication style that Gialluca describes as "non-monotonous systems." Argentines can joke profoundly and be eccentric while simultaneously being completely organized and straightforward, demonstrating high emotional intelligence and maturity that comes from their unique cultural blend of European romanticism and Latino lightheartedness.2. Argentina as an Underrecognized Cultural Superpower: Despite being introverted about their achievements, Argentina produces an enormous amount of global culture through music, literature, and iconic figures like Borges, Maradona, Messi, and Che Guevara. These cultural exports have shaped entire generations worldwide, with Argentina "stealing the thunder" from other nations and creating lasting soft power influence that people don't fully recognize as Argentine.3. AI's Cultural Impact Follows Oscillating Patterns: Culture operates as a dynamic system that oscillates between centralization and decentralization like a sine wave. AI currently represents a massive centralizing force, as seen in LinkedIn's homogenized content, but this will inevitably trigger a decentralization phase. The speed of this cultural transformation has accelerated dramatically, with changes that once took generations now happening in years.4. The Coming Bifurcation of AI Futures: Gialluca identifies two extreme possible endpoints for AI development: complete centralized control (the "Mordor" scenario with total surveillance) or complete chaos where everyone has access to dangerous capabilities like creating weapons or viruses. Finding a middle path between these extremes is essential for society's survival, requiring careful equilibrium between accessibility and safety.5. Individual AI Labs Are Becoming Democratically Accessible: Gialluca outlines a tier system for AI capabilities, where individuals can now build "tier one" labs capable of fine-tuning models and processing massive datasets for tens of thousands of dollars. This democratization means that capabilities once requiring teams of PhD scientists can now be achieved by dedicated individuals, fundamentally changing the landscape of AI development and access.6. Hardware Constraints Are the New Limiting Factor: While AI capabilities are rapidly advancing, practical implementation is increasingly constrained by hardware availability and cost. RAM prices have tripled in recent months, and the challenge of managing enormous heat output from powerful processors requires sophisticated cooling systems. These physical limitations are becoming the primary bottleneck for individual AI development.7. Data Quality Over Quantity Is the Critical Challenge: The main bottleneck for AI advancement is no longer energy or GPUs, but high-quality data for training. Early data labeling efforts produced poor results because labelers lacked domain expertise. The future lies in reinforcement learning (RL) environments where AI systems can generate their own high-quality training data, representing a fundamental shift in how AI systems learn and develop.

This is one of those conversations that pulls the curtain all the way back. In this powerful episode of The Birth Lounge, HeHe sits down with traditional birth companion and educator Billie Harrigan for an honest, unfiltered look at the modern medicalized birth system and how it impacts families. Together, they explore how maternity care has shifted away from physiology and toward control, efficiency, and liability, often at the expense of autonomy, trust, and emotional safety. Billie brings decades of lived experience and deep systems-level insight to this conversation, naming the ways many parents feel silenced, rushed, or traumatized within institutional birth settings. They talk openly about birth trauma, why so many families are opting out of the system altogether, and what it actually looks like to center consent, choice, and community support in birth. This episode is not about telling you what kind of birth to have. It's about understanding the system you're navigating so you can make informed, intentional decisions that align with your values. From the rise of free birth and traditional birth companionship to trauma-informed care and restoring birth wisdom to families, this conversation invites you to question what you've been told and reconnect with your own inner authority. If you've ever felt unsettled by how birth is handled, curious about alternatives, or hungry for a deeper understanding of how we got here, this episode will meet you exactly where you are. Guest Bio: Billie Harrigan is a Traditional Birth Companion and owner of Birth Trauma Ontario in Canada who has been serving families for over 40 years. With extensive international experience, Billie understands the complexities of modern maternity services and the pervasive issues that contribute to birth-related trauma and negative outcomes. Today's conversation will challenge your assumptions of the medical system and push you to expand the perspectives in which you see the delivery of healthcare in the US & Canada by discussing common tactics used by cults and the resemblance of hospital care. We dive into the impact of non-trauma-informed care on patients' short-term and long-term well-being. Buckle up because this episode is like nothing else you've ever experienced!
