What if your darkest moments could become your greatest breakthroughs? In this jaw-dropping episode, Hal Elrod—best-selling author of The Miracle Morning—reveals the unfiltered story behind his miraculous life. From dying for six minutes in a car crash to beating a rare, aggressive cancer with a 30% survival rate, Hal opens up about the moments that could have destroyed him—but instead defined him. You'll hear how the death of his baby sister planted the seed for a life of purpose, why discipline without identity won't last, and how your adversity might just be the preparation for your assignment. Rory Vaden sits down with Hal for an unforgettable conversation that unpacks not just how The Miracle Morning was born—but why it became a global movement that's changed millions of lives. If you've ever doubted yourself, struggled to stay consistent, or felt stuck in your personal brand journey… this is the episode you didn't know you needed. You'll learn: The mindset shift that helped Hal walk again after being told he never would. The practical framework behind the S.A.V.E.R.S. method—and how to stick with it. Why who you become matters more than what you achieve. How to build a personal brand that endures—and changes lives. This isn't just inspiration—it's your wake-up call.
The Warning Signs Police Missed in the Tepe Murder Case In this episode of Police Off The Cuff, we examine the murders of Spencer and Monique Tepe from a different and deeply important angle — The Missed Moment. Rather than focusing on suspects or courtroom outcomes, this discussion looks at escalation: the subtle warning signs, behavioral shifts, and critical moments before violence turns fatal. In many domestic-related homicide cases, the danger doesn't appear suddenly — it builds quietly, often hidden behind normal routines and unresolved conflict. Drawing on law-enforcement experience, we break down how investigators analyze these cases after the fact, asking the hardest question of all: When could this have been stopped?

If you’ve ever looked at your debt and thought how did I even get here, this one’s for you. Because that’s exactly where our Money Diarist found herself when she realised she was about $60,000 deep. There was a car. A wedding. Setting up a home. All the things that feel like you’re just meant to do as you build a life. Until one day she zoomed out and realised a life in debt wasn’t what she wanted for her family. Once she started learning how money actually works, everything shifted. She wasn’t bad with money like she’d always thought. She’d just never been taught. This episode is about what happens when financial literacy starts to click. How she tackled the debt without spiralling into shame. How a few strategic moves changed everything. And why when life later threw her a serious curveball, having those foundations already in place made all the difference. A big thank you to our partner Skye Wealth for bringing this episode to life.

You'd think I'd seen it all… until 2023 hit. Between a painful divorce, a business model I outgrew, and revenue crashing, it felt like everything I loved was slipping through my fingers. I had to relearn how to love myself, how to let go, and how to rebuild from the ashes. Today on the podcast I'm pulling back the curtain on the three hardest lessons I've ever faced in my life—and how they turned out to be my greatest launchpads. Listen in and discover why walking away from people and things you love can be the most compassionate choice, how real self-love starts with authenticity (not spa days or vanity wins), the two-step formula I used when my business fell apart, and how tuning into your inner wisdom sparked my next big breakthrough. If you're in a season of upheaval or just want to arm your mindset for whatever comes next, this episode is for you. If you've ever climbed back up after a hard fall, I'd be honored if you left a review. Your story might be the lifeline someone else needs. Did you enjoy this episode?

What if the contract you didn't get was actually the answer to your prayer? In this episode, Eric Collett shares how he helps entrepreneurs and executives optimize their brain health to function at an elite level. His work goes upstream, identifying the trajectory decades before diseases like Alzheimer's show symptoms, because most people don't realize that Alzheimer's and other neurodegenerative diseases generally start decades before the first symptoms appear. Eric's team has developed the Enhance Protocol, helping clients improve brain function by 20-30% so they can learn faster, understand new technologies more rapidly, find words faster, have more stable mental health, and prevent cognitive decline to stay in the game longer. He reveals losing what would've been his biggest contract in Arizona. After two weeks of silence following a handshake agreement, he prayed: "If it's not the right thing, please don't let it happen." The CEO called to say they'd met nurse practitioner Randy Vawdrey who could actually reverse cognitive decline. Eric told them "You should work with Randy, that's a huge opportunity." Months later, Randy called to collaborate. They met at 6pm and talked until after midnight going through a Bible-sized stack of research. Within six months, Eric asked Randy to become his business partner, a relationship that put him through an intentional crash course in med school for years. [00:05:20] Optimal Brain Health is Required Believes optimal brain health required for optimal results in business and life Brain is like hardware, everything we're learning and striving to do is like software Loading new software on crummy old dysfunctional hardware never gets great results Good brain health needed for better relationships, better business [00:06:00] Improving Brain Function by 20-30% Team developed organized system to identify root cause issues affecting brain performance Make specific recommendations, track objectively Help people improve brain function by 20-30% Can learn faster, understand new technologies more rapidly, find words faster, have more stable mental health [00:07:20] Who They Serve All ages: younger people with traumatic brain injuries, people in 30s with brain fog People 50-80 noticing things aren't what they used to be Especially focus on entrepreneurs and executives who want to function at elite level Most people miss opportunity to quantify it objectively instead of just guessing [00:10:00] Gary Plummer: From Doorknob to Stage Gary Plummer played linebacker for San Francisco 49ers, won Super Bowl ring Shortly after retiring, couldn't remember how to install doorknob (had done many times) Could go from zero to fighting mad at drop of hat, had to isolate from people Wouldn't drive on freeways, wouldn't travel without handler to meet at airport [00:11:20] The Transformation Eric's team helped take Gary's cognitive scores from 58th percentile to 86th percentile Several years later, now above average overall on tests Got to watch Gary step on stage at Forever Young Foundation event in Arizona Had quit speaking because he would lose train of thought, now presenting confidently [00:13:40] Alzheimer's Starts Decades Before Symptoms Nationally recognized expert, spoken in 39 of 50 states to healthcare professionals Alzheimer's and diseases like Parkinson's generally start decades before first symptoms We've grown up in "sick care system" that waits till you have serious problem 40-95% of Alzheimer's cases believed to be preventable [00:18:00] Think of Your Brain as a Boat When things are good, riding high in water, moving at top speed When not good, starting to take on water Common for people to get forgetful as they get older, but that's not normal, that's evidence of disease Brain health is never about one thing, it's multifactorial (80-100 things) [00:19:20] One Client: 68th to 99th Percentile Client is 42 years old, wrote LinkedIn article about experience Went from 68th percentile in cognitive functioning to 99th percentile Getting better results in life and business today Has lot more assurance he's changed trajectory for tomorrow [00:20:40] The Contract I Didn't Get Early 2017, started A Mind For All Seasons as solopreneur Opportunity to work with Arizona company designing memory care program for entire portfolio Met with owners, left with handshake agreement, supposed to get contract in couple days Couple days turned into more than two weeks [00:22:00] The Prayer Prayed: "I want this to happen, this would make my year" "If it's not the right thing, please don't let it happen" "I promise I will be grateful, I may not understand it, but I can be grateful in all things" Within day or two, CEO called [00:22:20] Meeting Randy Vawdrey CEO said they met nurse practitioner with advanced training in neurodegenerative diseases Randy had done fellowship with Dr. Bredesen at UCLA, Buck Institute for Research on Aging Dr. Bredesen's 2014 paper "Reversal of Cognitive Decline" showed 9 out of 10 patients with remarkable improvement Company said "We can't afford both Randy and you, we're going to work with Randy" [00:23:40] "You Should Work With Randy" Eric told them "You should, that's a huge opportunity, no one's doing that" They suggested "You should call Randy, he lives in Idaho like you do" Eric thought "I'm not gonna call Randy, I don't have time, I just lost biggest contract" Hustled for couple months [00:24:20] Randy Called Randy called out of the blue, said company wanted him to train staff "I'm a clinician, I don't do that, I want to explore collaborating" Eric was driving through Randy's part of state next week, said "Why don't we get together?" Went to Randy's house at 6pm, was there till after midnight [00:25:00] The Bible-Sized Stack of Research Randy brought out huge Bible-sized stack of research, slammed it on coffee table Started going through footnotes of the footnotes, what he'd learned with real patients Eric left 100% recognizing they could make far bigger difference Had agreement to split the contract, neither would make much money [00:25:40] "Will You Be My Business Partner?" Within six months Eric said "Randy, what are we doing dating? We need to work together" "Will you be my business partner? Let's go all in on this" All these years later still working together, still innovating Randy put Eric through intentional crash course in med school [00:26:00] The Education Every Friday and Monday morning at 7am for a few years, met for hour or two Randy taught Eric how to read labs, physiology and science behind everything Continued teaching ever since "Short of my own family, he has done more to affect my life than any human on the planet" [00:27:40] The Vision: Impact a Million Lives Current goal: impact another million lives in next two to three years Eight billion people on planet, everybody has brain, everybody needs optimal brain health Majority of Americans not metabolically healthy Alzheimer's nicknamed "diabetes of the brain" [00:32:40] Social Engagement Reduces Cognitive Decline From research standpoint, being more socially engaged reduces risk of cognitive decline Not only better in business and more joy in life, it's better for your brain Prioritizing relationships and being connected matters deeply for cognitive and mental health KEY QUOTES "Diseases like Alzheimer's disease, which I'm a nationally recognized expert in. I've literally talked in 39 of the 50 states to healthcare professionals. Most people don't realize that Alzheimer's disease and other neurodegenerative diseases like Parkinson's generally start decades before the first symptoms ever show up." - Eric Collett "I prayed and I literally said, I want this to happen. This would just make my year. If it's not the right thing, please don't let it happen, and I promise that I will be grateful. I may not understand it, but I can be grateful in all things." - Eric Collett "Being more socially engaged actually reduces the risk of cognitive decline. So not only are things better in business, and not only do you have more joy in life, it's actually better for your brain." - Eric Collett CONNECT WITH ERIC COLLETT
A jaw-dropping account is emerging from Venezuela that could rewrite the rules of modern warfare.
A single account. A single operation. And a claim so shocking it could redefine modern warfare. According to a Venezuelan guard's jaw-dropping testimony, U.S. forces allegedly neutralized hundreds of Maduro's defenders without losing a single soldier—using technology unlike anything seen in human history.
While riots, protests, and chaos dominate the headlines, an even bigger story is being deliberately buried.
This week, we're digging into a major turning point for modern comics — past and present.First up, Absolute Wonder Woman #15 delivers the first-ever meeting of Batman and Wonder Woman in the Absolute Universe, and it's anything but traditional. With a more primal, myth-driven Diana and a brutal, consequence-heavy tone, this issue marks a true escalation point for the Absolute line — and collectors have noticed, with sales jumping 176% this week.Then, for our 25 Year Rule, we rewind to 2001, a pivotal recovery year for the comic industry after the speculator crash. That brings us to New X-Men #114, the launch of Grant Morrison and Frank Quitely's era-defining run. This issue reimagined mutants as a global culture, reshaped the X-Men's visual identity, and directly influenced the look and themes of the X-Men films — all while remaining surprisingly affordable on the market today.Finally, in Underrated Books of the Week, we spotlight two sleepers that deserve more love:Camelot 3000 #1 — Mike W. Barr and Brian Bolland's futuristic Arthurian epic, and a landmark early direct-market series.Captain America #159 — a fascinating Bronze Age issue where Steve Rogers briefly gains super-strength.

Sometimes the breakthrough you're looking for doesn't come from more discipline. It comes from who you're willing to run with. Show Notes In this episode of Shark Theory, Baylor shares an unexpected lesson that came from an impromptu run with his dog, Bear. What started as a normal run quickly turned into the fastest mile he's run in years, beating his previous time by over a minute. The surprising part wasn't just the speed. It was how it happened. Running alongside someone who made it look effortless changed everything. While Baylor was pushing his limits, Bear was relaxed, enjoying himself, and barely working. Watching that ease rewired Baylor's mindset. Instead of straining and fighting the pace, he began to relax into it. This episode breaks down three powerful principles you can apply to any goal in 2026. First, growth accelerates when you stop doing things alone. When you only compare yourself to yourself, progress plateaus. But when you work alongside someone who is further ahead, faster, or more experienced, your brain recalibrates what is possible. Second, accountability becomes stronger when your goal isn't just about you. Baylor realized he didn't want to let Bear down. That simple emotional connection pushed him past the mental point where he would normally slow down. Tying your goals to someone or something outside yourself creates a deeper reason to keep going when motivation fades. Third, enjoyment matters more than we admit. The run was hard, but it was also fun. And that combination is the secret to consistency. Goals are supposed to challenge you, but they are also supposed to bring joy. When you find enjoyment inside difficulty, you stop resisting growth and start leaning into it. The takeaway is simple. If you want to grow faster, stop grinding alone. Find someone who makes it look easy. Tie your goals to something bigger than yourself. And learn how to enjoy the process, even when it hurts. What You'll Learn in This Episode • Why doing things alone can slow your progress • How proximity to excellence rewires your limits • The power of tying goals to someone else • Why accountability works best when it's emotional • How enjoyment unlocks higher performance • Why hard things should still be fun Featured Quote "Find someone who makes it look easy, and you'll discover you're capable of more than you thought." Run with people who pull you forward. Don't let your pace be set by your comfort. Let's have a great day.

In this explosive episode, Tara breaks down the brutal reality of life under Iran's mullah-led regime, the horrifying treatment of protesters, and how Western money kept that regime alive for years. From secret cash pallets and broken sanctions to the return of hope under Donald Trump, Tara connects the dots between Iran, Venezuela, global terror networks, and America's own national security. With protests reigniting and dictators reportedly preparing exit plans, this episode explains why Iran is shaking again, how sanctions are biting, and why the stakes couldn't be higher — not just for the Middle East, but for the United States itself. This is history, geopolitics, and hard truth — unfiltered. ⚠️
In this episode, Bryan and Layne explore how the Bible teaches direct access to God through Jesus, not through prophets or religious institutions, using the torn temple veil as the key turning point. Drawing from Layne's journey out of Mormonism, they explain why trusting the Holy Spirit over human authority leads to true freedom.--The Unveiling Mormonism podcast pulls back the curtain on Mormon history, culture and doctrine.

Email us at podcast@pursueGOD.org.Donate Now--Torn Veil, Open Access Layne (a former Mormon of 40 years) and Bryan talk about what access to God looks like in Mormonism compared to biblical Christianity. The big contrast: Mormonism tends to route access through an institution and its leaders, while the Bible teaches direct access to God through Jesus, guided by the Holy Spirit.They anchor the whole conversation in a key moment from the crucifixion: when Jesus died, the temple veil was torn from top to bottom (Matthew 27:51). That wasn't just a detail in the story—it was God's way of saying, “The separation is gone. The way is open.”What This Episode CoversAccess to God: simple vs. structuredLayne describes growing up Mormon with a built-in ladder of authority—bishop, stake president, prophet—where “hearing from God” felt filtered through leadership. Bryan points out that the idea of having a personal relationship with Jesus often feels like “Christian language,” not the normal relational emphasis inside Mormon culture.Why the torn veil changes everythingIn the Old Testament temple system, the veil represented a barrier between people and God's presence. Only the high priest could pass through, and only once a year, with a sacrifice.But when Jesus died, God tore the veil Himself—from top to bottom—showing that man didn't open the way; God did. The cross didn't just pay for sin.

In this episode, Bryan and Layne explore how the Bible teaches direct access to God through Jesus, not through prophets or religious institutions, using the torn temple veil as the key turning point. Drawing from Layne's journey out of Mormonism, they explain why trusting the Holy Spirit over human authority leads to true freedom.--The Unveiling Mormonism podcast pulls back the curtain on Mormon history, culture and doctrine.

The big contrast: Mormonism tends to route access through an institution and its leaders, while the Bible teaches direct access to God through Jesus, guided by the Holy Spirit.They anchor the whole conversation in a key moment from the crucifixion: when Jesus died, the temple veil was torn from top to bottom (Matthew 27:51). That wasn't just a detail in the story—it was God's way of saying, “The separation is gone. The way is open.”What This Episode CoversAccess to God: simple vs. structuredLayne describes growing up Mormon with a built-in ladder of authority—bishop, stake president, prophet—where “hearing from God” felt filtered through leadership. Bryan points out that the idea of having a personal relationship with Jesus often feels like “Christian language,” not the normal relational emphasis inside Mormon culture.Why the torn veil changes everythingIn the Old Testament temple system, the veil represented a barrier between people and God's presence. Only the high priest could pass through, and only once a year, with a sacrifice.But when Jesus died, God tore the veil Himself—from top to bottom—showing that man didn't open the way; God did. The cross didn't just pay for sin. It also removed the whole structure of “you need someone else to get you to God.”Prophets then vs. the Holy Spirit nowThey walk through the New Testament idea that God used prophets “in times past,” but something changes after Jesus (Hebrews 1:1–2). Jesus promised the Holy Spirit would guide believers into truth (John 16:13). Layne puts it plainly: dependence on a prophet is replaced by direct access through Jesus and the indwelling Spirit.Why people prefer a prophet anywayEven if it's not biblical, a prophet can feel comforting because he's visible, official, and “safe.” Bryan compares it to legalism: rules feel helpful because they're clear and controllable—but clarity isn't the same thing as truth.

In this video, Pastor Todd Coconato breaks down what unfolded yesterday, why it is a true geopolitical and spiritual game changer, and how the ripple effects will be felt far beyond South America. This moment impacts global power, regional security, cartels, elections, foreign influence, and the future direction of the Western Hemisphere. The world did not just shift a little. It changed.

I'm pulling back the curtain on my 2025 business insights... nosy bitches, this one's for you! I share the ultimate the plot twist: I made almost the exact same money as 2024, while taking a 3-month sabbatical, working essentially part-time, and living like an eccentric writer.I break down my Pitch Perfect launches (including a surprising feeling I had with my first $20K month), why I'm retiring from being "The Podcast Queen," and the creative possession that birthed SUPERNOVA — my new thinking lab for people who want to build intellectual frameworks that shape culture instead of learning more tactical skills. Plus: why I'm choosing restraint as my 2026 word, and why I'm actively exploring capped business models and circular economies instead of scaling into outer space.Themes from the episode:Making the same money while living exponentially better - I generated $143K (basically what I made in 2024), but took almost 3 months off, worked Tuesdays-Thursdays, and traveled to 10+ cities, which honestly feels more successful than any revenue goal ever could.From reactive hot takes to restrained discernment - I'm retiring the knee-jerk cultural commentary and choosing thoughtfulness over Threads wars, because not everything needs my opinion and frankly, discernment is sexy as hell.Why SUPERNOVA exists and why I refuse to be the podcast queen forever - The sabbatical revealed I don't want my legacy to be "she taught people to pitch/podcast," I want it to be "she taught people to build worlds," which required creating a 4-month thinking lab for intellectual frameworks that transcend your current business reputation.Ditching cold pitching for relational EVERYTHING - I stopped teaching extractive tactics and started focusing on nurturing your actual circle, which resulted in my most collaborative Pitch Perfect cohorts and proved that relationships always win over spray-and-pray strategies.Exploring capped income and circular economies because endless growth is a scam - I engaged in 8+ swaps/trades for high-ticket programs, I'm capping SUPERNOVA at 10 people, and I'm actively researching what it means to redistribute resources instead of building a team-run empire I don't even want.My 2026 themes: CREATE. PLAY. PHILOSOPHIZE. EXPLORE. UNEARTH. ASK BIG QUESTIONS. SIMMER. PONDER. WONDER. THINK.What are yours?!Connect with Chelsea:
In this episode of Design. Build. Hunt., Josh Raley sits down with Whitetail Partners clients Joe and Talyn to break down how their South-Central Georgia property went from good to GREAT once all the pieces were finally working together. Over the years, they'd received solid input from foresters, habitat organizations, and implementation crews. Each voice brought value—but each focused on a different piece of the puzzle. What was missing was a single, holistic plan that put all the pieces together. In early 2025, Joe and Talyn worked with Whitetail Partners to come up with this holistic plan, and the results speak for themselves! In this conversation, we cover: Why good advice can still lead to inconsistent results How access and pressure control changed deer movement fast Where timber thinning and prescribed fire fit into the bigger picture Using mock scrapes as intelligence, not pressure points Why food plots finally started functioning instead of just growing How confidence in the plan led to passing good deer—and killing better ones This episode is a real-world example of what happens when a property stops being managed in pieces and starts working as one system.
This week on Mature Me I'm releasing my favorite Sermon of 2025. This message is straight from Motion Conference where I've been preaching for over a decade. Every time I step into that space, God gives me something new. I'm grateful for @chrishodges and the way he's made room for a new generation.Rooted in Ephesians 2, this message centers on two words that change everything: But God.We are saved by grace through faith. What starts in the Spirit cannot be sustained by the flesh.The title of this message is “Don't Let the Old Man In.”We are not just improved versions of who we used to be. We are brand new creations. Salvation happens in a moment but becoming like Jesus is a process.This message walks through the new mindset, appetite, boundaries, and power God gives us to keep moving forward.It empowered me. My hope is it empowers you.
In this episode, we sit down to close out the year and reflect on everything that brought us here. From vision boards and big goals to unexpected lessons, growth, and moments that changed us forever — this year was a ride.We talk about how much we've both evolved, what we learned about ourselves, our relationship, and why trusting the process mattered more than ever. This is a chill, honest conversation about gratitude, consistency, and stepping into the next chapter with intention.Thank you to everyone who supported us, watched, listened, and grew with us this year. This episode is for anyone reflecting, resetting, and getting ready for what's next.
Goodbye 2025: The Year That Changed Everything As 2025 comes to a close, it's time to pause—and take one last, honest look at a year that often felt overwhelming. The first year of Trump's return to power reshaped politics almost daily, while breakthroughs and breakdowns across science, health, entertainment, and pop culture competed for our attention nonstop. Some stories inspired hope. Others shocked, exhausted, or divided us. And many lived somewhere in the uncomfortable middle. This episode of The Karel Cast puts 2025 into a time capsule—connecting the dots between the moments that defined the year and asking what they mean as we step into the future. If you felt like 2025 was a lot… you weren't wrong. Let's talk about the year that was.
What if 70% of cognitive decline is optional — and you've been told the wrong story about aging? In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Tommy Wood — neuroscientist, performance researcher, and author of The Stimulated Mind — to dismantle the myth that brain decline is inevitable. Dr. Wood reveals why most people are treating their brains like trucks when they should be treating them like Formula One cars — and how that mindset shift changes everything. We unpack the truth about cognitive function: it doesn't have to decline. Studies show that for most people, brain performance can stay stable from your 50s into your 80s and beyond. But here's what no one is saying: the average decline we see is driven by a minority of people who experience severe deterioration — not the majority. That means the trajectory you're on is largely within your control. Dr. Wood breaks down his 3S Model for Brain Health — Stimulus, Supply, and Support — a framework that simplifies the overwhelming noise around brain optimization. We discuss why retirement accelerates cognitive decline by 40%, how resistance training protects white matter and executive function, why being unkind to yourself creates chronic inflammation that accelerates dementia risk, and the shocking role of allostatic load in brain aging. This conversation will change how you think about your brain. It's not about doing 40 things perfectly. It's about understanding the core mechanisms — and making strategic changes that shift the entire system in your favor. About the guest: Dr. Tommy Wood is a neuroscientist, performance researcher, and author of The Stimulated Mind. He holds a PhD in physiology and neuroscience from the University of Cambridge and an MD from the University of Oslo. Dr. Wood has worked with Formula One drivers, elite athletes, and high performers across industries to optimize brain health and cognitive longevity.

In this revealing episode of Corsi Nation, Dr. Jerome Corsi is joined by Mike McCormick, former stenographer for Joe Biden and author of The Case to Impeach and Imprison Joe Biden, for an in-depth discussion on the intersection of political power, global ideology, and institutional influence.Dr. Corsi and McCormick examine allegations that the Obama–Biden administrations aligned with elements inside the Vatican, including Pope Francis and disgraced former Cardinal Theodore McCarrick, to advance what they describe as a globalist and “woke” agenda within religious, political, and cultural institutions.McCormick shares insights drawn from his firsthand experience inside government and explains how alliances sometimes described as the Deep State and Deep Church operate across borders and institutions to shape policy, culture, and public narratives. He also previews themes from his upcoming book, which will explore these connections in greater depth.This episode explores:How political power intersects with religious authorityThe role of ideology in reshaping institutionsMedia and cultural influence in advancing global narrativesWhy faith institutions have become strategic battlegroundsWhat McCormick's forthcoming work aims to uncoverThis conversation offers a critical examination of how power consolidates across governments, faith institutions, and global elites—and why these relationships matter in shaping the future of Western society.

professorjrod@gmail.comExplore how Napster revolutionized technology education by changing the way we interact with digital files and access information. This episode delves into the transformation from physical media to digital packets, illustrating key moments that reshaped internet culture and technology. Whether you're preparing for your CompTIA exam or interested in IT skills development, understanding these technological shifts provides valuable context for tech exam prep and study group discussions. Join us as we unpack the history behind Napster and its lasting influence on technology education and digital innovation.We walk through Metallica's landmark lawsuit and the legal logic that treated visibility as control, then trace the diaspora that followed: LimeWire's messy resilience, Kazaa's global sprawl, and BitTorrent's protocol-level genius that made sharing intrinsic. Along the way, we examine what labels missed, what users learned, and why lawsuits against platforms morphed into letters to dorm rooms. Hardware and storefronts offered a ceasefire—hello iPod and ninety-nine-cent downloads—but ownership still clashed with a new habit shaped by search, speed, and scale.Streaming became the only model that matched the lesson users had already internalized: music should be searchable, immediate, and everywhere. That shift didn't stop at songs. Photos, documents, movies, and apps followed, because remote access began to feel natural. We talk candidly about artist trade-offs—reach versus leverage, algorithms versus programmers—and the way architecture keeps deciding outcomes. If you care about the history of technology, platform liability, or the future of creative work, this story connects the dots from a dorm room index to the blue play button on your phone.If this deep dive gave you a new lens on music and tech, follow the show, share it with a friend who remembers the dial-up hiss, and leave a quick review so others can find us.

In this episode of The Winston Marshall Show, I sit down with historian and bestselling author Giles Milton for a deep historical conversation about the Second World War, the alliance with Stalin, and the decisions that shaped the post-war world.We explore how Winston Churchill came to ally with Joseph Stalin after Hitler's invasion of the Soviet Union, despite viewing communism as a murderous and authoritarian system. Giles explains the extraordinary political reversal of 1941, the moral compromises involved, and why Churchill saw the alliance as a necessary pact with the devil.The discussion moves through the Nazi-Soviet Pact, Lend-Lease, the meetings at Tehran, Yalta, and Potsdam, and the immense role American industrial power played in defeating Hitler. We examine how Stalin manipulated his allies, outmanoeuvred Roosevelt, and secured control of Eastern Europe, laying the foundations for the Cold War.We also discuss the betrayal of Poland, the division of Germany, the origins of the Iron Curtain, and Churchill's secret plans to confront the Soviet Union after the war, revealing how fragile the wartime alliance truly was.A fascinating conversation about power, war, pragmatism, and how the alliance that defeated Nazism reshaped the world that followed.-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------To see more exclusive content and interviews consider subscribing to my substack here: https://www.winstonmarshall.co.uk/-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------FOLLOW ME ON SOCIAL MEDIA:Substack: https://www.winstonmarshall.co.uk/X: https://twitter.com/mrwinmarshallInsta: https://www.instagram.com/winstonmarshallLinktree: https://linktr.ee/winstonmarshall----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Chapters00:00 Introduction of Giles Milton and The Stalin Affair04:50 Churchill's Anti-Communist Stance and Political U-Turn10:46 The Lend-Lease Program and American Aid22:28 Stalin's Tactics and the Winter Turning Point26:54 The Tehran Conference and Churchill's Meeting with Stalin33:34 The Yalta Conference and Post-War Planning53:43 The Potsdam Conference and the Cold War59:48 Churchill's Iron Curtain Speech and the End of the Alliance1:03:45 Operation Unthinkable and Churchill's Final Strategy Hosted on Acast.

This Best Of episode of The Dwayne Kerrigan Podcast brings together some of the most powerful, human, and perspective-shifting moments from recent conversations—highlighting the inner work that fuels resilience, fulfillment, and sustainable success.Across these standout clips, Dwayne and his guests explore the quiet transformations that happen beneath the surface: reframing everyday frustrations into gratitude, redefining identity after loss or transition, and understanding how meaning—not circumstances—shapes our experience of life and leadership.Listeners will hear deeply personal reflections on illness, sobriety, scarcity and abundance, self-belief, and the courage required to evolve beyond old identities. From learning to “get from” experiences instead of merely getting through them, to recognizing that progress creates happiness and balance—not extremes—creates longevity, this episode weaves together the wisdom that resonates long after the moment passes.This Best Of collection serves as both a reminder and a reset: fulfillment isn't waiting at a destination. It's found in the journey, in presence, perspective, and the daily choices that shape who we become.EPISODE HIGHLIGHTS: 0:00:32 - Introduction03:22 - Jessica Janzen05:52 - Master Co09:34 - Molly Bloom12:02 - Tod Melnyk15:10 - Emily Williams16:56 - Mara Dorne19:33 - Alvin Brown22:55 - Jaime McKenna25:52 - Rich Diviney29:09 - John Karpov31:16 - Alan Stein Jr.34:04 - Heather MoyseKEY TAKEAWAYS:Perspective can transform frustration into gratitude.Identity drives behavior; what you place after “I am” shapes your choices.You are not your thoughts, emotions, or circumstances — you are the observer of them.Growth comes from introspection and learning from experiences, not just getting through them.Failure becomes lighter when reframed as information, not identity.Sustainable high performance requires balance, not extremes.The journey itself—not the destination—is where fulfillment lives.NOTABLE QUOTES:“We find certainty in some of the smallest things, and that certainty is what gives us purpose.” - Dwayne Kerrigan“You're not the emotion. It was created by you.” - Master Co“If you don't get from an experience, you're bound to repeat it over and over again.” - Alvin Brown“Let go of things and trust the process” - Emily Brown“When you feel good on the inside, you look good on the outside, you perform better” - Mara DorneConnect with Dwayne KerriganFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/thedwaynekerriganpodcastInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/dwaynekerriganpodcast/Linked In: https://www.linkedin.com/in/dwayne-kerrigan-998113281/Website: http://www.dwaynekerrigan.comDisclaimer The views, information, or opinions expressed by guests during The Dwayne Kerrigan Podcast are solely those of the individuals involved and do not necessarily represent those of Dwayne Kerrigan and his affiliates.

A Parenting Resource for Children’s Behavior and Mental Health
When your child melts down, every parent feels that moment of panic—What do I say? How do I help them calm? In this episode, I break down the 4 Calming Phrases Parents Say Changed Everything and how these simple, rhythmic statements help a dysregulated brain return to safety and connection.Parenting a child whose emotions shift from zero to one hundred can feel overwhelming, but understanding what the brain needs in those tense moments changes everything. These phrases aren't fluffy scripts. They're co-regulation tools that speak directly to a child's nervous system, reduce overwhelm, and open the door to emotional learning.This episode offers practical guidance on why these phrases work, how to use them during real-life meltdowns, and how parents can stay grounded even when their child is losing control.Why do calming phrases work better than lectures during meltdowns?When a child is in fight, flight, or freeze, they literally can't hear you. Logical thinking and critical thinking skills shut down as survival mode takes over. That's why telling a child to “calm down,” “stop crying,” or “use your words” never works in the red zone—no matter your parenting style.Calming phrases act as safety cues. They help create a shift because they:Support emotional regulation in both parent and childPrevent you from barking orders when you're stressedSignal safety so a child can feel connected rather than overwhelmedMake space for real boundary setting and the ability to set limitsReduce the urge for people pleasing or power strugglesCreate the conditions where kids learn instead of shut downStrengthen the entire family dynamic through calm communicationThese cues slow the moment and tell your child's brain, “You're not in danger. You're not alone.”And that's when real connection—and real teaching—can finally happen.If you're tired of walking on eggshells or feeling like nothing works…Get the FREE Regulation Rescue Kit and finally learn what to say and do in the heat of the moment.Become a Dysregulation Insider VIP at www.drroseann.com/newsletter and take the first step to a calmer home.What are the 4 calming phrases parents say changed everything?1. “I'm with you.”This phrase instantly grounds a child who feels scared, overwhelmed, or ashamed.It tells their nervous system they aren't alone, which is essential for emotional regulation.A parent shared that after years of nightly homework battles, whispering “I'm with you” softened her child's panic—and changed the emotional tone of their entire household.2. “Let's slow down.”Kids borrow our rhythm. When you slow your voice, breath, and movements, their brain naturally syncs to your calm.Saying “Let's slow down” teaches emotional pacing and helps them step out of survival mode and back into connection.3. “We'll get through this.”Dysregulated kids often think the moment is catastrophic. This phrase restores perspective and safety.It teaches resilience—not avoidance—and shows your child that problems are temporary and manageable with support.4. “It's okay to feel upset.”Validation lowers cortisol and reduces overwhelm.Instead of shutting emotions down, this phrase teaches kids that...
#904. This week on Off the Vine, Kaitlyn sits down with actress Elaine Hendrix — you may know her as Meredith Blake from The Parent Trap — for a conversation that goes way beyond the movie you think you know her from!Elaine opens up about returning to dance decades later on Dancing with the Stars, why she was convinced she was going home every single week, and how a cracked rib nearly took her out of the competition. She shares what viewers didn't see: the nonstop rehearsals, emotional whiplash, intense competitiveness, and why the timing finally felt right to say yes after turning the show down before.We rewind to the moment that changed everything — being hit by a car just as her dance career was taking off — and how living with chronic pain reshaped her relationship with her body and work. Elaine also reflects on landing The Parent Trap at 26 (as the 433rd actress to audition), why Meredith Blake has become a millennial icon, and how fans' relationship with that character has completely flipped.Honest, funny, and full of perspective, this is a conversation you won't want to miss!If you're LOVING this podcast, please follow and leave a rating and review below!

2026 is the year Rex Heuermann finally faces trial for seven murders spanning three decades. But before the courtroom doors open, a stunning arrest just reshaped everything we thought we knew about Gilgo Beach. In December 2025, police charged Andrew Dykes — the father of "Baby Doe" — with murdering Tanya Jackson and their two-year-old daughter Tatiana. For fourteen years, investigators assumed they were victims of the Long Island Serial Killer. They weren't. Dykes had been cooperating with the investigation for months before his arrest. His name was on the child's birth certificate. That means Ocean Parkway wasn't one killer's dumping ground. It was a corridor for multiple predators. But Rex Heuermann is still facing the fight of his life. Seven victims. One trial. Judge Mazzei denied severance and admitted cutting-edge DNA evidence the defense called "magic." The prosecution has filed its statement of readiness with a 723-page evidence inventory. And then there's the planning document — a deleted Word file found on Heuermann's hard drive that prosecutors say is a literal blueprint for murder. Categories for "Body Prep." Instructions to remove heads, hands, and identifying tattoos. Notes about rope strength. References to FBI profiler John Douglas's Mindhunter. A dump site listed that matches where victims were actually found. January 13, 2026 is the next major court date. After that, we're looking at a trial date announcement. In this episode, we break down everything coming in 2026: the evidence, the victims, the family fracture, and the cold cases still waiting for answers. Karen Vergata. Asian Male Doe. Shannan Gilbert. The investigation isn't over. Rex Heuermann says he's innocent. His daughter believes otherwise. The jury will decide. #RexHeuermann #GilgoBeach #LISK #LongIslandSerialKiller #TrueCrime #GilgoBeachMurders #ColdCase #TrueCrimeNews #SerialKiller #Justice2026 Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Country artist Conner Smith joins Brooke Taylor and co-host Pastor Mark Evans on The Upload for his first in-depth conversation since the tragic accident that made headlines this past summer. Known for hits like “I Hate Alabama,” and “Creek Will Rise,” Conner has quickly risen through the country music ranks—touring festivals, releasing his debut album, and building a loyal fanbase. But behind the momentum was a season of profound heartbreak. On the final day of CMA Fest, just one day after taking the Riverfront Stage, Conner was involved in a devastating accident that took a life. In this episode, he opens up with honesty and humility about the grief, trauma, and deep soul-searching that followed, and how the Lord became his anchor when the world around him collapsed. Conner shares how God met him in the shock and silence, the community that rallied around him, and the spiritual “crushing and stripping” that has reshaped him in ways he never expected. He talks about learning to trust God in the valley, surrendering the weight he can’t carry alone, and how the peace he has today is only because of the presence of Christ in the darkest hours. This is a powerful conversation about suffering, healing, and the God who restores what feels shattered beyond repair. Follow The Upload:
Hey Heal Squad! We're throwing it back to one of our most unforgettable conversations of the year with the one and only Jenny McCarthy Wahlberg. Jenny gets real about her son's life-threatening seizures, his autism diagnosis, and why trusting her intuition changed everything, even when it meant facing intense backlash. She shares the behind-the-scenes truth about her advocacy journey, how she was talking about the gut-brain connection long before it was mainstream, and how that path ultimately led her to creating her clean beauty brand, Formless Beauty. This episode is raw, honest, and filled with those “wait… WHAT?!” moments that remind us why listening to your body (and your inner voice) matters so much!
