In the second conversation, Ed turns from his own story to the people who write in every week and say they are exactly where he was two or three years ago. He talks about the things that actually help: treating your relationship with God as the most important thing in your life, finding a few trustworthy voices and ignoring the rest, asking yourself honestly what is holding you back (usually authority or the demand that every last question be answered first), and accepting that the process takes longer than you want. He tells the annulment story—the mailbox checks, the dark nights, the moment he stood in front of a crucifix and had to decide whether he would follow or not—and why he now tells people to start praying the Rosary every day even if they still think they are “just looking.” He is honest about family tension, the difference between rushing and never moving, and the quiet way timing finally lined up. If you are on the same road, this is Ed speaking directly to you. SUPPORT THIS SHOW Considering Catholicism is 100% listener-supported.

Most operators treat agency spend like weather, something that happens to you. Blake Thiess doesn't buy it.Blake has hired hundreds of healthcare professionals without agency. In his most recent role he went three years with zero agency usage and averaged 25 days to offer — less than half the industry average. At Prestige Care he cut agency spend by $3 million in one year. He walks me through how, and almost none of it costs money.Key takeaways:Speed is the game. Two or three interviews max. Beat everyone to the candidate decision.Employer brand is free if you'll do the work. Team members on camera, and job posts that answer "what's in it for me?"AI is a polisher, not a decider. The recruiters who survive can influence a human to take a call.Recruiting isn't a cost center — but you have to prove it. Show the CFO the agency dollars you didn't spend.Retention is a recruiting strategy. Career lattices, plus the courage to promote from within.Notable quotes:"Nobody wants to read a three-page bullet point list of all the stuff you're gonna be doing. That's bad berries, as my grandpa would say.""It was a 30-minute video interview with an AI recruiter, and it scared me. This person was better than most recruiters I know.""Have the courage and audacity to promote people into roles they haven't served in before."Mentioned in this episode:Blake Thiess on LinkedIn — https://www.linkedin.com/in/blakethiessBlake's articles on ERE — https://www.ere.net/authors/blake-thiessPrestige Care — https://www.prestigecare.comGem, the recruiting CRM Blake implemented — https://www.gem.comAbout Blake: Blake Thiess is a healthcare talent acquisition leader with over a decade building recruiting and employer brand functions in senior living, skilled nursing, and post-acute care. As Director of Talent Acquisition at Prestige Care he supported roughly 75 locations across eight states and cut agency spend by $3 million in one year. Most recently, as Director of Recruiting at Trinity Hospice, he kept the organization agency-free for three years while averaging 25 days to offer. He holds his PHR and SHRM-CP and is currently open to his next role.

President Donald Trump just jumped headfirst into the battle for Texas. As Trump prepares to head to Texas in support of Republican Senate nominee Ken Paxton, the President unleashed a rapid-fire series of posts targeting Democratic nominee James Talarico — highlighting old clips, mocking his political positions and branding him with a new nickname in front of reporters.And Trump wasn't finished.In this video, Professor Nez breaks down what Trump actually said, the posts and clips that are exploding online, the context behind some of Talarico's most controversial past remarks, and why Trump is suddenly putting so much attention on this Texas Senate race.The stakes are much bigger than internet memes.Recent polling has shown an unusually competitive Texas Senate contest, while Talarico has enjoyed a major advertising advantage. Now Trump is signaling that he intends to spend significant time helping Paxton — potentially turning this race into one of the biggest political fights of the 2026 midterms.We'll separate what Trump is claiming from what has independently been verified and examine what his intervention could mean going forward.

Ed is no longer just considering. After four-plus years of conversations on this show, he is now a candidate in the mid-year OCIA cohort at our parish and will enter the Church on the Feast of Christ the King. Sitting at the secret compound (earth-movers optional), he talks about what it actually feels like to walk into Sunday Mass as a newbie: the missed genuflection, the missed missal, the Laurel-and-Hardy choreography in the back pew, and the sudden realization that Catholic liturgy demands active participation instead of following words on a screen. He describes the unexpected emotion at the Sign of Peace and the elevation of the Host among people who are clearly serious, then gets to the harder part: obedience as a feature rather than a bug, reordering weekends around Mass when his wife is not interested, walking away from the old music network, and staring down an examination of conscience and confession. This is the update longtime listeners have been waiting for—the difference between studying Catholicism and beginning to live it. SUPPORT THIS SHOW Considering Catholicism is 100% listener-supported.

“For 80 years, we only have men [lead the UN] and I think it is not about women because she is a woman … The idea is a woman because she has the experience, the leadership, the capacity, the knowledge, the ability to do things that need to be done…So I hope that that will be something that members could understand that it will be fantastic. But, to be honest, I'm not sure that every country is ready for that.” James Copnall speaks to Michelle Bachelet, a former President of Chile and one of the world's most prominent human rights advocates. Bachelet made history as Chile's first woman president, serving two terms before going on to become the United Nations high commissioner for human rights. Now, she is one of the candidates vying to become the next secretary general of the United Nations, a position never held by a woman since the organisation was founded in 1945. With the UN facing growing pressure to reform, Bachelet says the organisation needs to adapt to a changing world, become more effective and better reflect the people and countries it represents. She also argues that it is time for a woman to lead the United Nations, after eight decades in which the top job has been held exclusively by men.

It's Casual Friday on The Mattjority Report On today's program: RFK.

Heather 'Digby' Parton joins Sam for a pretaped interview to recap the week's news.

Jesse Watters shares his plan for healthcare, which is just eat right, exercise and get a job. Rep. Josh Gottheimer - a Democrat - goes on CNN to campaign against fellow Democrat, Abdul El-Sayed and condemn Hasan Piker. As Dems trip sprint to every media outlet to scream about Hasan Piker and "antisemitism" on the GOP side there is an actual Nazi and KKK problem. Candidate for Senate in Georgia, Mike Collins, whose son-in-law is a known white supremacist influencer, has a staffer who posted pictures of him in a Klan robe. I'm sure that it's just two bad apples and has no bearing on Mike Collins' personal views. Los Angeles Sparks forward Cameron Brink calls Enes Kanter a "stupid piece of shit".

In this episode of the Psychedelic Medicine Podcast, Fernando Rivas, MD, joins to unpack the safety and screening considerations for ibogaine therapy. Dr. Rivas is an emergency physician with over 15 years of clinical experience. As Chief Medical Officer of Transcend Clinic, he has led the development of innovative treatment protocols in addiction medicine and the clinical application of ibogaine. In this conversation, Dr. Rivas discusses who may be a good candidate for ibogaine therapy and the clinical considerations involved in determining its safety. He explains that ibogaine has the strongest current support for interrupting substance use disorders and addressing TBI and PTSD, while potential applications in other areas remain emerging and require further research. Throughout the conversation, Dr. Rivas emphasizes the importance of distinguishing absolute from relative contraindications and of carefully screening patients for psychiatric risks, cardiac conditions, and medication interactions. He also discusses medically supported detox protocols, the importance of evaluating treatment through an individualized risk-benefit framework, and how lower-dose or non-psychedelic approaches may eventually broaden access to ibogaine's potential neuroplastic effects.   In this episode, you'll hear: What conditions ibogaine has been most studied for and where its potential applications may be expanding The psychiatric and physical conditions that may make someone an unsuitable candidate for ibogaine treatment How patients with active opioid or alcohol use may be medically supported and stabilized before treatment Why relative contraindications should be evaluated through an individualized risk-benefit analysis How ibogaine's typical psychedelic experience may be shorter than its reputation suggests Why the immediate improvements some patients experience should be understood within the broader context of neuroplasticity and long-term integration   Quotes: "Ibogaine is the most robust of the [psycho]plastogens in terms of the window of time that it is able to open [for increased neuroplasticity]—at least as per preclinical research. So the potential is tremendous." [3:22] "Cardiovascular health is the most important [safety consideration for ibogaine therapy]. If you have a big hypertrophic heart and a large dilated heart, the risks are greater. If you have rhythm disturbances, the risks are greater and sometimes unacceptable." [11:08] "The chances [of an adverse cardiac event] are mitigated by properly screening and vetting patients, as well as by the addition of magnesium to ibogaine treatment. Magnesium is an essential component, as it is cardioprotective. … It simply raises the threshold for an irregular heartbeat or to occur."  [17:38] "A first degree relative with schizophrenia, for example, would be a relative contraindication. However, we must think of this in terms of risk and benefit. If this person is injecting fentanyl every day, they are at risk of overdose and death every single day. … so that relative contraindication should always be ascertained in terms of risk-benefit, particularly risk to life when it is present." [29:31] "The science currently supports that sufficient exposure over a short enough period of time can yield pretty much the same results in terms of [neuro]plasticity without incurring a psychedelic experience. And we have tailored some specific treatments for patients that did not wish to incur a psychedelic experience, yet wanted to obtain the benefits of the plastic component of ibogaine treatment."

What happens when you create the “perfect” job candidate and send her into today's job market? Apparently, not much.Emily Durham, better known as Emily the Recruiter, decided to build a completely fake LinkedIn profile and resume for a candidate who checked all the right boxes and then applied to 40 jobs to see whether being “perfect on paper” was actually enough to get noticed. The results were… well, let's just say things are bad when you have to become a “mad scientist” to figure out what is happening in the job market.We talk about why the traditional idea that you can simply apply for enough jobs and eventually get one is increasingly out of touch. We also get into something that hits particularly close to home: what happens when you're mid-career, over 40, and suddenly realize that the job market you knew doesn't really exist anymore? Emily shares what recruiters actually look for and what candidates can realistically control as AI changes the hiring process.And then we get into the stuff that makes me want to scream into the void: workplace ageism, coded language like “fresh perspectives,” pregnancy discrimination, and the pressure to constantly prove that you're still relevant. But don't worry, this episode isn't all doom and gloom. We also talk about accidental entrepreneurship, portfolio careers, and why, hot take, your job does not have to be the thing you love most about your life. In This Episode:- What Emily's “perfect candidate” experiment revealed- Ghost jobs, job platforms, and the reality of applying in 2026- How to build a resume recruiters actually notice- Why networking matters more than mass applying- Accidental entrepreneurship and the rise of portfolio careers- What AI is actually doing in the hiring process- Why AI proficiency is becoming a workplace requirement- The reality of ageism and bias at work- How to protect and advocate for yourself at work- Why your job doesn't need to be your passionAnd much more!Resources:- Get Corporate-level Health Coverage for Solopreneurs with a 50% Discount for 1st Three Months - https://essentlcreator.com/maureen- Clock In by Emily Durham - https://emilydurham.org/clock-in -The hidden challenges younger women face at work - https://leanin.org/articles/findings/the-hidden-challenges-of-younger-women-at-work-face/Connect with Emily Durham:LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/edurham-hr/Website: https://emilydurham.org/Connect with Maureen Clough:LinkedIn: maureenwcloughWebsite: itgetslateearly.comInstagram: @maureenwclough YouTube: @itgetslateearly Affiliate Disclaimer:Hey there!

Send us Fan MailRhode Island's primary sprint, the Providence mayor's race, and the shakeup in statewide politicsWith early voting underway, Bill Bartholomew and Hummel break down a Rhode Island primary that feels unusually compressed, low-energy, and wide open in several marquee races. They focus on the governor's race, the Providence mayoral primary, and how turnout, apathy, and candidate organization could decide everything.We discuss why the governor's race appears to be Helena Foulkes versus Dan McKee, why Providence mayor could be the most consequential contest on the ballot, and how the attorney general and lieutenant governor primaries are shaped by heavy uncertainty and weak candidate separation. The conversation also zooms out to the collapse of Rhode Island Republican infrastructure and the question of whether independent Ken Block can change the dynamics.Key topicsThe primary feels like a sprint after a long buildup, with very little time to energize voters before election day.Hummel argues that apathy is the dominant force in this cycle, especially because many races feel either predetermined or hard to differentiate.In the governor's race, Dan McKee is framed as carrying a long list of political liabilities, including the Washington Bridge, CVS/opioids, and general voter fatigue.Helena Foulkes is seen as holding a consistent polling advantage, with multiple polls showing her ahead by a meaningful margin.The Providence mayor's race between incumbent Brett Smiley and challenger David Morales is described as the most interesting contest, with Morales bringing national attention and youthful energy.Smiley's strength is his political infrastructure, especially his turnout operation and support from Eddie Catucci, who is described as a master of mail ballots and ground game.The lieutenant governor and attorney general primaries are portrayed as crowded and muddy, with lots of undecided voters and very little ideological separation.The discussion notes that gun policy and constitutional concerns may be pushing some Democratic voters away from more aggressive positions in the AG race.National anti-incumbent sentiment is seen as helping challengers broadly, but not necessarily translating cleanly to every local race.Rhode Island Republicans are described as deeply weakened, lacking a coherent bench, a strong message, or an effective opposition strategy.Aaron Guckian and the Republican gubernatorial field are viewed as weakly positioned, while the congressional races are portrayed as even more chaotic.Ken Block is treated as the most plausible wild card in the governor's race, especially if he can consolidate support or benefit from a one-on-one dynamic.Timestamps(00:00) Opening the primary sprint and why this cycle feels flat (01:43) Why turnout and election-day energy matter more than usual (03:23) Providence mayor becomes the race to watch (05:36) McKee's polling problem and the uphill climb in the governor's race (06:23) What could help McKee and what still works against him (07:31) Smiley's turnout machine versus Morales' grassroots energy (08:42) Why the lieutenant governor and AG races are so unsettled (09:46) Little separation in the AG field and the gun policy divide (11:23) Does national anti-incumbent anger spill into Rhode Island? (13:14) What Providence schools and city management mean for Smiley (14:15) The collapse of the Rhode Island Republican ecosystem (15:55) Why the GOP congressional slate looks so weak (17:14) How Trump hollowed out the state party (19:41) Could Ken Block become the real governor's race alternative? (21:55) Block's media strategy and money challenge (22:25) Election day timing, early voting, and closing thoughtsSupport the showFollow Bill on Instagram and YouTube

Send us Fan MailConnor Blier on Providence Ward 13, rent stabilization and local political trustConnor Blier joins Bartholomewtown to explain why he entered the open Providence Ward 13 race and how his personal history in Rhode Island shapes his campaign. The conversation centers on rent stabilization, city leadership, and his broader argument that local politics has drifted away from working-class residents.We discuss Blier's criticism of insider politics, his belief that the recent rent stabilization effort was used as a political tool, and why he says the city needs representatives who answer the phone, show up in neighborhoods, and write policy from lived experience.Key topicsBlier says he entered the Ward 13 race because he sees a repeat of what he experienced in Rhode Island's cannabis industry, where he believes small operators were squeezed out by corruption and insider access.He argues that the original dispensary licensing process hurt local homeowners and small businesses, and says that experience made him wary of how government power can push working people out.The discussion turns to Providence rent stabilization, where Blier says he supports meaningful protection for renters and homeowners, but only if the policy is written carefully enough to avoid harming small property owners and neighborhood families.He claims the rent stabilization push was used as a political maneuver rather than a sincere effort to pass workable legislation, and says working-class people were being turned against each other for electoral purposes.Bill Bartholomew presses Blier on whether the City Council and Mayor Smiley ever had a realistic path to a deal, and Blier responds that the process lacked honesty and clear intent.Blier says his campaign is aimed at local representation first: answering calls, helping residents navigate city services, and being physically present in the ward.He describes Ward 13 as a working-class district and says the city's biggest issue is cost of living, especially housing pressure and the risk of homelessness.He argues Providence has not built enough housing, has failed to keep pace with population growth, and needs to incentivize development while also protecting people already living there.Blier says he is running against the political machine rather than just an opponent, pointing to endorsements, out-of-state money, and establishment ties as signs of a broader insider network.He closes by saying the race is a chance to break that system and restore local, working-class voice to Ward 13.Timestamps00:00 - Ward 13 special election and why Connor Blier jumped in00:30 - Cannabis licensing, small business losses, and Blier's origin story03:03 - What Blier means by corruption in Rhode Island politics06:26 - Rent stabilization becomes the central Providence issue07:24 - Support for tenant protections, but only with real carve outs09:22 - Why Blier says small homeowners could get caught in bad policy10:35 - The recording involving Senator Sam Bell and the rent vote12:45 - Bill challenges the claim that the process was a sham13:45 - Blier argues the council had the votes to pass it15:57 - Why Blier says local government should focus on residents first18:14 - Cost of living, housing pressure, and the working class in Providence19:37 - Record tax rates, city spending, and frustration with priorities20:39 - Why Blier says he is running against the political machine21:29 - Out-of-state money, endorsements, and insider influence22:54 - The Ward 13 opening and Blier's case for a local candidate24:36 - Campaign response, neighborhood reception, and limited resources27:14 - Blier on mayoral politics, local trust, and neighborhood accountability Support the showFollow Bill on Instagram and YouTube

Fintech Layer Cake uncovers the secret recipes and practical insights from fintech leaders and experts. Host Reggie Young, chief of staff at Lithic, talks to the people building financial infrastructure from the inside.Shirley Zhang joined the startup Order as employee number seven, at 19, and built its people ops and recruiting functions from scratch. She later trained as an executive search recruiter, placing VP-level and above hires across a portfolio of venture firms, before joining Lithic, where she now leads recruiting and describes herself as a matchmaker as much as a screener.In this episode, Reggie and Shirley get into what to look for in your first handful of hires, why "ghosting" candidates is recruiting's most common unforced error, and why chasing the "purple squirrel," a candidate who checks every box, usually costs more than it's worth. They also cover how she balances hard data against gut feel, and how she went from actively avoiding a career in recruiting to building her whole identity around it.Chapters00:00 Building people ops from scratch at 1904:21 The three traits to anchor a first hire on08:32 The "purple squirrel" problem14:19 The biggest mistake in recruiting: bad candidate experience18:07 "Recruiting is a team sport"21:04 Assessing culture fit without just vibing26:24 Her "sixth sense," and when to trust it29:10 What makes someone a fit for a leadership hire32:26 "People buy people first"34:11 How she fell into recruiting after actively avoiding it39:43 Why she loves it nowFintech Layer Cake is powered by the Cartesian platform, Lithic.

Kris Mayes clears Governor Katie Hobbs of any wrongdoing. Senate President Warren Petersen weighs in on the decision to drop the investigation.

Barrett Gruber sits down with Richard Hricik — attorney, community servant, and candidate for South Carolina Attorney General — for a substantive conversation about what the AG's office is actually supposed to do, why it's fallen short, and how Hricik plans to change that without spending a single campaign dollar.Richard opens by tackling one of the most common misconceptions about the Attorney General's role — what the office can and can't do, and why most people's understanding of it is shaped more by headlines than by the law. His own path to this race runs through a genuine commitment to rule of law and nonpartisanship that he argues is increasingly rare in an office that has become a political platform rather than a public service.The zero-money campaign strategy is one of the episode's most compelling threads. Richard explains how volunteers, authenticity, and community trust can substitute for the donor relationships that typically define political campaigns — and why he believes that approach actually makes him a better candidate for an office that is supposed to serve everyone, not just the people who funded the race.The conversation gets specific on the issues: environmental accountability and the legal enforcement gaps that allow polluters to operate unchecked in South Carolina; the reform of legal processes and the controversial practice of hiring outside law firms at public expense; drunk driving enforcement and the case for stricter penalties; and transparency in insurance practices that directly affect everyday South Carolinians. As Richard puts it plainly, "the rule of law is the foundation that holds us together" — and restoring that foundation is the throughline of everything he's proposing.The episode closes with Richard's vision for the future of justice in South Carolina and what it would mean to have an Attorney General who prioritizes the people over the politics.Topics Covered:The true role and responsibilities of the South Carolina Attorney GeneralRichard Hricik's background, personal story, and path to politicsRunning a campaign with zero funds and a volunteer-driven strategyThe importance of rule of law and nonpartisanship in the AG's officeEnvironmental issues and legal accountability in South CarolinaReforming legal processes and outside law firm hiring practicesDrunk driving enforcement and the case for stricter penaltiesTransparency in insurance practices and public trustPolitical polarization and its impact on justice and law enforcementCommunity trust and authenticity as campaign strategyRichard Hricik For SC AG | XRichard Hricik for SC AG | FacebookRichard Hricik for SC Attorney GeneralBarrett Gruber | LinktreeThe All About Nothing: Podcast | LinktreeClick here for Episode Show Notes!As always, "The All About Nothing: Podcast" is owned and distributed by BIG Media LLC!Check out our network of fantastic podcasts!Click Here to see available advertising packages!Click Here for information on the "Fair Use Copyright Notice" for this podcast.

“Sometimes we confuse activity with impact. And here I think the way we measure results should be different. How many lives has the UN saved? How many people has the UN helped to live out of poverty? How many people have we prevented from conflict? How many people were we able to support?” The BBC's Anne Soy speaks to María Fernanda Espinosa, Ecuador's former foreign minister and a candidate to become the first woman secretary general of the United Nations. She is seeking the role at a time when the UN faces severe financial pressure, falling international aid budgets and questions about its influence over major conflicts. Espinosa believes the organisation remains essential, but warns that it could become irrelevant unless it changes how it works. She describes the choice facing the UN as “reform, transform or die”.

Jeremy Ryan Slate on Rome, oligarchy, currency, and the breakdown of the West Graham Dunlop and Darren Grimes sit down with Jeremy Ryan Slate for a wide-ranging conversation about civilizational collapse, using Rome as the main historical lens. Jeremy argues that the West is following a familiar pattern of monetary debasement, immigration strain, and declining political ethics, while Darren and Graham push the discussion toward technology, energy, election integrity, and whether there is any humane way to stabilize the system. We discuss why the Roman pattern may be repeating across the US, Canada, the UK, and Europe, what actually causes collapse, and whether reform is still possible through currency, production, and energy. Key topics Jeremy lays out his "Roman pattern" framework with three main drivers of collapse: monetary debasement, immigration pressure, and the loss of ethics among political leaders. The conversation turns to whether the West should be viewed as one collapsing bloc or as a set of countries moving at different speeds through the same decline. Jeremy argues that modern democracy has already drifted into oligarchy, pointing to executive power, elite control of money, and the replacement of candidates as evidence. The hosts compare modern politics to Rome's client patron system, where voting and public policy often rewarded whoever could hand out the most benefits. A major thread is the 1913 turning point in the US: the 17th Amendment, federal income tax, and the Federal Reserve Act. The group also discusses the War Powers Act, executive war-making, and how crises are used to expand state power. Jeremy says collapse is usually slow, not cinematic, and compares it to Rome's long degradation rather than a sudden movie-style fall. Darren and Graham explore whether universal high income, automation, or energy abundance could replace broken welfare and monetary systems. Jeremy pushes back on the idea of unconditional handouts, arguing that any workable system still needs incentives, value creation, and consequences for bad behavior. The most optimistic path, in Jeremy's view, is a two-pronged fix: cut waste and rebuild industrial production. They also dig into energy as the next big frontier, especially nuclear power, grid modernization, and the idea of backing currency through actual productive capacity. The episode closes with Jeremy explaining his work on The Roman Pattern, Hidden Forces in History, and the Athenian Book Club.

Thaddeus McCotter analyzes the recent Michigan Democratic primary, where Dr. Abdul El-Sayed narrowly defeated the establishment candidate, Haley Stevens. El-Sayed, an "anti-establishment" fighter endorsed by Bernie Sanders, capitalized on unhappiness within the Democratic base, particularly in counties with large young populations like Washtenaw and Kent. While El-Sayed distances himself from the "Socialist" label, he supports extensive economic regulation and holds anti-Israel sentiments popular in Ann Arbor. McCotter notes that the Democratic establishment is now rallying around El-Sayed to preserve their Senate majority, hoping a "common enemy" in Donald Trump will bridge internal divides. Republican candidate Mike Rogers, a former Intelligence Committee chair, plans to counter El-Sayed by focusing on manufacturing, border security, and the risks of "Medicare for All" to seniors. McCotter warns that Trump's messaging on the "Iran war" and rising inflation remains a significant hurdle for Republican candidates in the general election. (6)

A former professional basketball player is running to become South Carolina's first Black governor. Dr. Jermaine Johnson will explain why he's the best man for the job. The Trump administration is bragging and taking the credit for violent crime going down, but those crimes have been declining since 2022 - when he wasn't in office. We'll talk to the Senior Director for Public Safety from the Center for American Progress about the numbers. Attorney General Todd Blanche is considering seeking the Supreme Court's intervention to compel states to hand over voter rolls. California prosecutors told jurors Tupac Shakur's 1996 killing was 'an act of revenge' during today's opening statements. The defense says time, corruption, and a lack of facts will be challenges in the case. Saturday, the National Association of Black Journalists gave out its Thumb Down Award, including one to Stephen A. Smith. It's time for a little history lesson.
