Welcome back to part 2 of this electrifying Women of Impact double feature, as Lisa Bilyeu and ex-CIA expert Andrew Bustamante continue to rip the mask off celebrity scandals and dissect the gray space between power, consent, and manipulation. In the second half, Andrew brings his spy-level skills to the accusations against James Franco—exploring the truthfulness of his on-air confessions about relationships with students and whether he crosses the line from “celebrity opportunity” to predatory behavior. Also under the microscope: the recent legal feud between Blake Lively and director/actor Justin Baldini, featuring real behind-the-scenes set footage. Lisa and Andrew invite you to consider—how do we really judge whether someone's behavior is toxic masculinity or weaponized victimhood? What does power look like when the cameras are off?

In this episode, we confront a chilling reality: unvetted individuals crossing the U.S. border, instructed to destroy their documentation, leaving us clueless about who they are. Is this a calculated move? You bet it is. From fentanyl and meth labs to human and child sex trafficking, the collusion between Chinese organized crime and Mexican cartels is fueling a crisis that's spiraling out of control. Are these just drug operations, or is there a more sinister, operative component—perhaps tied to terrorism? John's seen it firsthand, from the grow houses poisoning our lands to the narco takeover of rural communities like Siskiyou County.

Tom sits down with two extraordinary guests: Andrew and Jihi Bustamante, elite intelligence professionals and co-authors of "Shadow Cell." Andrew, a former covert CIA officer and founder of Everyday Spy, and Jihi, a master targeter, pull back the curtain on the murky world of espionage, information warfare, and the complex dance between truth and spin in global politics. Andrew delivers a masterclass on how political appointees and intelligence leadership have shifted over the decades, exposing the tension between presidential loyalty and national service. Tom fearlessly challenges both guests to untangle headline-making controversies—from election interference to the notorious Steele Dossier—and explores whether we, as citizens, should blindly trust, fight, or try to decode the signals coming from our own government. This first half sets the stage for an unprecedented look at spin, power, and loyalty in the age of 24-hour news and social media.

This is a Fan Fav episode. As much as you hate to admit it, relationships are vital to our happiness and success in life. The relationship you have with yourself , your romantic partner, your family, friends and co-workers dictate more than you can imagine. Dr. Molly Maloof, author of The Spark Factor, believes in relationships and connections so much she's created a lecture for Stanford University called Live Better Longer. She touches on the value of social connection and its impact on long-term health and disease. Molly talks with Lisa in this episode and runs down the power of love, what intense romantic love feels like, and an entire masterclass on sexual desire and arousal. The fact that Molly ranks love in the same category of needs as thirst and hunger says a lot. In addition to unpacking the power of love, Molly also covers the power a loss of love has on your physical and mental health. So much of her explanation fills the voids we have in understanding why a bad break can make us feel crazy and do things out of character.

Tom Bilyeu takes us on a no-holds-barred deep dive into the economic systems shaping our world—and the brutal realities behind rising inequality and declining prosperity. Why do some countries thrive while others spiral into poverty? Is our current system rigged beyond repair, or do we still have the power to course-correct? Drawing on hard-hitting statistics, historical case studies, and insights from thinkers like Thomas Sowell and Milton Friedman, Tom unpacks the myths surrounding meritocracy, the dangers of well-intentioned welfare policies, and the crucial roles that culture, education, and family structure play in the fate of nations. He doesn't shy away from uncomfortable truths about government policies, societal values, and the perils of forced equality. Most importantly, Tom lays out a clear-eyed, six-part blueprint for rekindling prosperity—from reforming welfare and championing education reform to rebuilding the middle class and dismantling regulatory barriers for entrepreneurs.

In this dynamic and thought-provoking conversation, Tom is joined by his regular co-host Producer Drew and DJ Mason as they dive deep into the rapidly changing landscape shaped by technology, AI, and economic disruption. This episode pulls no punches as Tom unpacks how artificial intelligence and automation are transforming entire industries—from fast food to manufacturing—and what that means for jobs, the middle class, and the future of work. Drawing comparisons to the Industrial Revolution, Tom and Drew discuss everything from new Google AI breakthroughs and the rise of agent-based AI game development, to startling stats about capital flight, tax policies, and the real impact of billionaire migration on city budgets. Listeners are taken into the reality behind the numbers: the shrinking percentage of young Americans able to purchase homes, the growing disconnect between income and wealth, and the psychological and societal shifts on the horizon. Tom also answers pointed questions from the chat, dispelling misconceptions about taxation, the difference between wealth and income, and why the narrative around “taxing the rich” can miss the mark. The episode rounds out with a forward-looking discussion on the double-edged sword of AI's cultural impact—think AI-driven creativity, customizable storytelling, and the rise of community-driven content alongside the harsh realities of job loss and the psychological need for belonging and purpose in a post-AI world.

Tom and co-host Drew dive deep into the week's most explosive headlines—from Trump's bold moves on the global stage, including nuclear posturing and ultimatums to Russia, to Senator Warren's controversial takes on taxing the rich and the very real repercussions that could have on cities like New York. The conversation pulls no punches, breaking down what happens if billionaires flee, what's truly driving skyrocketing unaffordability, and the alarming collapse of the middle class as shown by a viral marriage-and-homeownership chart. But we don't stop there. You'll hear Tom and Drew tackle wild policy proposals, like calls to abolish the family from the Democratic Socialists of America, and why the culture-versus-politics debate may be the most crucial fight of our era. From threats to free speech in the UK and EU to the chilling implications of mass surveillance, the episode unpacks how global powers manipulate narratives—and why Americans can't take core freedoms for granted. Turning to technology, Tom and Drew geek out on the jaw-dropping pace of AI advancements—from Google's AI-generated 3D worlds to 11Labs' game-changing music tools—and wrestle with the looming asteroid of automation: millions of jobs on the line, and an urgent call for everyone to understand assets and self-reliance.

Picking up where they left off, Tom and Dave tackle the hard realities of economic instability, debt spirals, and the perilous connection between populist narrative battles and actual policy. The duo examine what's at stake as America approaches its 250th anniversary, questioning what national values and stories we ought to anchor in—and how those can overcome destructive polarization and utopian fantasies. The conversation doesn't shy away from hard truths—touching on everything from the psychological underpinnings of envy, the impact of socialism, to the existential rivalry between the US and China. Dave opens up about personal responsibility, localism vs. federal overreach, and the urgent need for optimism and grounded action in tumultuous times. To close, Dave shares insights into his off-the-grid ritual and previews his groundbreaking experiment with AI as a stand-in host. If you crave an unfiltered look at the future—both technological and political—this half delivers the inspirational and cautionary notes you need to hear.

This is a Fan Fav episode. To have children or not to have children is a choice that you as an empowered woman gets to decide for herself. The problem is that it's hard to distinguish between where you stand on the topic apart from your family and social pressures. Dr. Shefali is the bestselling author of the book, The Conscious Parent, the book that Oprah herself sends to anyone she knows even considering being a parent. Dr. Shefali's no holds barred approach to parenting is the thing you need whether you're leaning towards having kids or trying to steer clear from the conversation for another several years. This is the episode where Dr. Shefali is debunking myths of motherhood and exposing unrealistic expectations of stepping into or away from your maternal instincts. Your bandwidth and capacity to become a mother, an entrepreneur, a career woman, or stay at home wife doesn't fall into a group decision, it's a decision for you alone first, and a conversation with your partner second. Dr. Shefali reveals what a powerful teacher parenting can be for us as individuals, but she also exposes how giving birth can be psychological death for women that's a huge impact and traumatic experience in anyone's relationship. If you're on the fence of having children or not wanting to have them, give yourself grace and time to make an accurate assessment of how you really feel about having a child. If your pressure to decide is coming from cultural beliefs, wanting to fit in with your social circle of friends all having children, or you think a child will bring you and your partner closer together, then stop everything and take heed to Dr. Shefali's fire advice.

Surviving 2.5 Hell Weeks and 6 BUD/S Attempts | Ep. 251 In this episode of the Mike Drop Podcast, John Collins delivers an unfiltered, brutally honest account of what it really takes to become a Navy SEAL—and what happens when the dream nearly dies. This isn't your typical war story. It's about failing hard, facing humiliation, and coming back swinging. Raised by a hard-charging state trooper in small-town Maryland, John always knew structure. What he didn't know was how far he'd have to go—how much he'd have to lose—before finally earning the Trident. From getting dropped at BUD/S to guarding terrorists in Guantanamo Bay, John's journey is a masterclass in grit, redemption, and what it means to serve with purpose even when the path doesn't go according to plan. Through multiple Hell Weeks, soul-crushing setbacks, and years of grinding through Navy politics, John fought like hell to get back into SEAL training. And he made it. But what happened after is just as powerful. From sniper to breacher to K9 handler, to a complete reinvention in civilian life—John proves that purpose doesn't end with a uniform. ---------- Heartland Steak Stock up with a custom steak box or grab a grill-ready bundle —either way, you're getting the best.

Known for his sharp insights on media, identity, and the shape of the American conversation, Dave joins Joe just as he's about to head "off the grid" for a month-long digital detox—making this one of his final interviews before a complete unplug. Together, Tom and Dave dive into the rise of the "woke right," the evolution of right-wing populism, and the complex dynamics fueling extremism on both sides of the aisle. The conversation covers everything from cultural hysteria and the economics behind fear-driven media, to the real-world implications of identity politics and anti-Semitism. They debate narrative control in American society, the comparison of current media figures, and speculate on the deeper economic forces that are shaping today's political climate. If you want a candid look behind the headlines—filled with both black pills and white pills—this episode pulls no punches on what's at stake.

By now, you are most likely aware of narcissistic behavior being grandiose, egotistical and charming. If many of us can describe a narcissistic person, then how do we fall into unhealthy relationships with people that have zero concern for our happiness or well being? If you've experienced a relationship with a narcissistic person or happen to be currently living through narcissistic abuse then you are familiar with the frustration, the gaslighting, and feeling totally lost on how to end it or get out of the relationship. There are very clear traps narcissists use to keep hold of the people they want to control. Dr. Ramani Durvasula is an expert in narcissism and clinical psychologist. She is also a repeat guest on the show, joining Lisa for the third time.

In today's episode, Tom and Producer Drew dive into the passionate—and sometimes heated—comments from their recent deep dive on taxes and economic inequality. Using your thought-provoking feedback as a springboard, Tom tackles the emotional debate around whether the rich are paying their fair share, why taxes hit the poor and middle class hardest, and what's really behind the growing economic divide. From the complexities of inflation, debt, and money printing to the provocative notion that “eating the rich” can backfire historically, this episode doesn't shy away from hard truths. Tom breaks down how government spending, loopholes, and the influence of lobbyists contribute to our economic woes—and why simply taxing the wealthy isn't the silver bullet many hope it might be. If you've ever wondered how economic policy truly impacts everyday lives, or what steps we could take to restore prosperity for the middle class, you won't want to miss this candid, sometimes contentious, and always insightful Q&A. Get ready to challenge your assumptions and gain a deeper understanding of the real issues driving our economic challenges.

This is a Fan Fav episode. The Body Shop launched a global report this year that revealed 60% of women wish they had more respect for themselves. This study is shining light on a self-love crisis. Sexuality, economic status, age, and time on social media were all factors that seem to impact how people felt about themselves and their ability to love themselves. In this episode, we have 7 powerful women who understand the pain of being in a mental space that doesn't make you feel confident or much like a badass. The throughline here seems to be that self love requires you to take the time to get to know yourself. So, in the next 35 minutes, take notes and think through areas you can start to remove the barriers in place preventing you from loving yourself. Where are you being most unkind to yourself? Where does self-doubt seem to always show up? It's time to create an unbreakable relationship with yourself, and this is how… Original air date: 12-22-21 SHOW NOTES: Tip #1 | Spend Time with Yourself, Radhi finds herself through meditation [0:30] Tip #2 | Challenge Yourself, Roxy has loving dialogue and a journal for challenges [4:41] Tip #3 | Accept Yourself As Your Are, Cynthia says start with knowing who you are [11:30] Tip #4 | Know Who You Are, Patrice anchored to her true self not outward situations [17:42] Tip #5 | Treat Yourself How Like Your Best Friend, Najwa on making yourself feel heard [23:43] Tip #6 | Humbly Brag About Yourself, Daniele says start bragging on your achievements [25:49] Tip #7 | Slow Down, Mel takes pause to be with herself face to face in the mirror [30:07] CHECK OUT OUR SPONSORS Vital Proteins: Get 20% off by going to https://www.vitalproteins.com and entering promo code WOI at check out.  SleepMe: Visit https://sleep.me/woi to get your Chilipad and save 20% with code WOI.

In this live community-driven session, Drew and Mason take the reins as they dive headfirst into one of the hottest topics out there: income tax, wealth distribution, and the question that never fails to heat up the comments section—are the rich really paying their fair share? Pulling insights from Tom's recent deep dive, the hosts break down the complexities of “trickle down” economics, dissect why income and wealth are taxed differently, and debate whether things like a flat tax could solve more problems than it creates. We hear sharp arguments from the community, honest takes on how globalization and corporate decisions affect the middle class, and practical advice for anyone trying to break out of financial struggle. But Impact Theory wouldn't be complete without a look at the personal side. Drew addresses wage stagnation, corporate profits, the realities of investing for everyday people (even if it's just $10 a month), and what it really takes to move up when you're stuck working multiple jobs and barely making ends meet. Plus, there's a candid exploration of dating and gender dynamics in today's world—what's broken, what's changed, and what it actually takes to thrive.

Serial toxic relationships, blaming everyone and feeling helpless aren't healthy, and luckily they aren't permanent feelings or states of existence.

Tom and co-host Drew tackle some of the most pressing issues shaping our world right now—from trade deals and tech breakthroughs to the complexities of American politics and evolving cultural narratives. The conversation kicks off with reactions to a major US-EU trade agreement and what it means for America's place in the global economy. Tom and Drew dive into the ongoing gridlock in Congress, sparked by passionate remarks from Cory Booker, and discuss whether polarization is crippling the nation—or protecting it from “doing anything really crazy.” They draw surprising parallels between the American political landscape and other countries, especially China.

This is a Fan Fav episode. Does the thought of defending yourself sound empowering or frightening? If someone were to cross a physical boundary with you, do you feel prepared and capable of protecting your boundaries? Safety is a primary concern when you are human, and it is even more of a concern when society isn't doing the best job making you feel safe or capable of keeping yourself safe. Don't dress that way and attract unwanted attention they say. Don't walk alone late at night or early evenings they say. Often women are left feeling like the victim long before a crime or a siituation has occurred. Eve Torres Gracie is a Self Defense expert and instructor at Gracie University of Gracie Jiu Jitsue. She's opening the conversation with how the core lof self defense for women is to feel confident and to be able to enforce boundaries. Defending your boundaries and giving yourself permission to know that you are worth defending is key. At this Rad Con Live event Lisa is joined by Celebrity Makeup Artist, Molly Roncal, Co-Founder of Bossbabes, Danielle Canty, Holistic Psychologist, Nicole LePera, and Self Defense Expert, Eve Torres Gracie. The conversation gets open and extremely vulnerable. Discussing aging and insecurities around beauty, scars, and self-worth isn't easy to do openly, but as women we need to be able to have these conversations.

In today's episode, we're diving deep into one of the most controversial and complex issues of our time: wealth inequality and the fierce debate around taxing the rich. Hashtags like “EatTheRich” have taken over social media, and public figures are demanding that billionaires pay their “fair share.” But what do the numbers actually say—are the wealthy really freeloading, or are we missing the bigger picture? Tom unpacks the realities behind the statistics, breaking down who really funds the government, why taxing the rich might not be the solution people think it is, and the powerful psychological forces driving resentment and populism. Along the way, he traces the real culprits behind the shrinking middle class—from runaway inflation and globalization to misguided regulations. If you've ever wondered whether simply taxing billionaires could fix our economic system, or why history shows that punitive tax policies often backfire, this episode will leave you questioning common wisdom and craving real solutions. Get ready for a data-driven, myth-busting journey that reveals both the causes of inequality and what needs to happen for genuine progress. Let's jump in!

Then, raise the bar for skill acquisition and mastery. Anyone feeling “stuck” in life will find his approach challenging and refreshing. So tune into this episode of Impact Theory with Tom Bilyeu, and listen to Cal Newport discuss why you should not necessarily follow your passion, why you should disconnect from social media, and why sacrifice promotes the good life.

Welcome back to Impact Theory with Tom Bilyeu! In this electrifying live episode, Tom dives headfirst into some of the most contentious issues making headlines today—from Tulsi Gabbard's explosive accusations against Obama, to protests in Ukraine, and the UK's controversial carbon credit pilot programs. Joined by Producer Drew, the conversation unpacks the wild landscape of modern politics, including the rise of extreme ideologies on both sides, the dangers of jailing political opponents, and the psychological underpinnings driving populist movements. Tom also reflects on his own evolution—from sharing mindset hacks that built his billion-dollar company, to now focusing on the cause-and-effect realities driving economic and political shifts. Throughout, Tom and Drew don't shy away from messy debates, exploring everything from “woke” dynamics on the far right, to the perils of unchecked groupthink, to the potentially transformative—and terrifying—impact of advances in AI.

Tom Bilyeu welcomes entrepreneur and media powerhouse Patrick Bet-David, founder of Valuetainment, for a masterclass on leadership, politics, and the high-stakes challenges currently facing America. Together, Tom and Patrick dive into a rapid-fire analysis of Donald Trump's performance as president, dissecting his leadership style as a project manager and the enormous complexity of running multiple high-impact agendas at once. The pair examine where Trump excels, where his administration fumbled—most notably the Epstein scandal—and how the media narrative profoundly shapes public opinion. This jam-packed first half delves into international challenges with China, trade negotiations, and the difficulties of moving public policy quickly in a hyper-scrutinized environment. Patrick shares candid perspectives on which advisors are moving the needle, why tariffs matter, and how Elon Musk's long-game may disrupt American party politics.
