    Did the Tell Me Lies finale actually deliver… or are we all just emotionally attached to chaos?In this quickie episode, Alix & Kayla break down the Tell Me Lies finale—spoilers included—and unpack everything from toxic relationship dynamics to unresolved plotlines and the very real lesbian internet crossover that somehow always leads back to the same tiny queer universe.From casting coincidences and queer Hollywood connections to the psychology behind Stephen and Lucy's relationship, they dive into what worked, what didn't, and the storylines they wish we'd gotten another season to explore.This is a fun, chaotic pop culture recap about messy relationships, queer internet lore, TV finales, and why the lesbian social graph is somehow only three degrees wide.00:00 – Intro: First Ever “Quickie” Episode 00:45 – Why We're Adding Quick Episodes 01:05 – Tell Me Lies Finale (Spoiler Alert) 02:00 – Recognizing the Cast & Lesbian Internet Connections 03:00 – Doppelgängers, Casting, and Queer Lore 04:05 – Real-Life Relationships Between the Cast 05:15 – The “Tiny Web of Lesbians” Phenomenon 06:30 – Finale Reactions: Mixed Feelings 08:00 – Did Stephen Actually Win? 09:30 – Lucy's Choices & Relationship Chaos 10:45 – Plotlines That Felt Unresolved 11:45 – Storylines We Wish Got Another Season 13:00 – Favorite Character Dynamics 14:00 – Final Thoughts on the Ending 14:45 – Audience Questions & Comment Prompts

Those who haven't yet learned to love-self and are full of insecurities, fall for many of the things societies says. It has led to many wrong stereotypes and wrong beliefs.

    In this deeply honest conversation, Shani opens up about the origins of her love for Torah, a genuine religious crisis she experienced in college, and how wrestling with philosophy ultimately widened her faith. We talk about Jewish womanhood, halacha, and why Shani wants women to stop being afraid of their own bodies and their own questions. With remarkable vulnerability, Shani reflects on the cost of a life given to community, the nights she wasn't home, and the conversation with her daughter that taught her a powerful lesson about accepting the hidden costs of our most idealistic choices. Rabbanit Shani Taragin directs and teaches in Israel and worldwide. She currently serves on the advisory committee for the Mizrachi Olami Shalhevet program, as Rosh Beit Midrash for the women in Yeshiva University's new academic program in Israel, and together with her husband, Reuven, as Educational Director for Mizrachi Olami.Join our new virtual Tanya class!

    Philippians 2:5 In your relationships with one another, have the same mindset as Christ Jesus:Commitment: DEDICATED to a cause, activity, or PERSON — a pledge, an undertaking.Commitment is not a FEELING you fall into — it's a decision you FOLLOW through on.5 OBSERVATIONS ABOUT COMMITMENT1. Commitment is a PERSONAL decision you back up with FOLLOW- THROUGH.Commitment is not proven by what you PROMISE, it's proven by what you PRACTICE.Ecclesiastes 5:2 Do not be quick with your mouth, do not be hasty in your heart to utter anything before God. God is in heaven and you are on earth, so let your words be few.Ecclesiastes 5:5 It is better not to make a vow than to make one and not fulfill it.Proverbs 16:3 Commit to the LORD whatever you do, and he will establish your plans.Matthew 5:37 All you need to say is simply ‘Yes' or ‘No'…2. Over time, your commitments REVEAL what you VALUE — and who YOU ARE.Proverbs 11:3 The integrity of the upright guides them, but the unfaithful are destroyed by their duplicity.Character is who you are when it COSTS you something.2 Timothy 1:12 I know whom I have believed, and am convinced that he is able to guard what I have entrusted to him…If your relationship is built on CONVENIENCE, it will collapse under PRESSURE.3. Character is CARRYING out a decision long after the MOOD is gone.Discipline is choosing between what you want NOW and what you want MOST.Proverbs 20:7 The righteous lead blameless lives; blessed are their children after them.4. Commitment is an ongoing JOURNEY, not a one-time MOMENT.Philippians 3:10-11 I want to know Christ and experience the mighty power that raised him from the dead. I want to suffer with him, sharing in his death, so that one way or another I will experience the resurrection from the dead!5. Commitment is making a CHOICE to give up other CHOICES.Romans 12:9-10 Love must be sincere. Hate what is evil; cling to what is good. Be devoted to one another in love. Honor one another above yourselves.Ephesians 5:21 Submit to one another out of reverence for Christ.Mark 10:45 For even the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve…Ecclesiastes 4:12 A cord of three strands is not quickly broken.

    As the world transitions toward a clean energy future, there is more demand for critical minerals like lithium, cobalt, nickel, and rare earth elements. These minerals are essential for clean energy technologies, electric vehicles, batteries, solar panels, wind turbines, and even our everyday electronics.But where do these minerals come from? Who controls their extraction? Who bears the environmental and human costs? How can we ensure that the transition to a low-carbon economy doesn't repeat the extractive injustices of the past?Today, we're joined by Will Jamil Wiltschko, who is with the California Trade Justice Coalition, a coalition of organizations working to ensure that Critical Mineral Agreements adhere to international climate, labor, and human rights standards.Contact and connect: https://criticalmineralsjustice.org/https://gtwaction.org/the-deadly-cost-of-cobalt-mining-in-the-congo/

    The man who took Nancy Guthrie from her Tucson home prepared for weeks — and still made mistakes that could define the entire investigation. He surveilled the house. He masked his face. He brought a weapon and a backpack. But he dropped a glove, wore gear traceable to Walmart, and left behind DNA that just came back with zero matches in the national database. This is someone who planned but couldn't execute cleanly. Someone who crossed the line into serious violence for what appears to be the first time.In this episode of Hidden Killers, psychotherapist Shavaun Scott — author of The Minds of Mass Killers and a thirty-year veteran of forensic mental health work — analyzes the psychology behind the crime itself. Not the evidence. The choices. What does it mean when someone capable of kidnapping an 84-year-old medically fragile woman has no criminal history in CODIS? What does the gap between surveillance-level preparation and Walmart-level execution tell us about his psychological state on the night of February 1st? And what is happening inside his mind right now — two and a half weeks in, with helicopters overhead, his face on wanted posters, and the FBI closing in on every piece of gear he touched?Scott breaks down the dueling theories — planned kidnapping versus burglary gone wrong — from a clinical standpoint and explains why the answer matters far beyond this case. She examines what the decision to target a vulnerable elderly woman reveals about empathy, risk processing, and the psychological threshold this person crossed when he separated Nancy from her pacemaker, her medication, and everything keeping her alive.This is criminal psychology grounded in confirmed facts, built to hold up no matter where the investigation goes.#NancyGuthrie #SavannahGuthrie #GuthrieSuspect #CriminalPsychology #TucsonKidnapping #ShavaunScott #HiddenKillers #TrueCrimePodcast #CODISNoMatch #PimaCountyJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

    Today we're talking about righteous victimhood - the mindset where you're more focused on what's unfair than on what you can do next (and end up justifying inaction). And real quick - You might actually be right about the unfairness. That's not the problem. The problem is when staying right starts costing you your agency, your options, and your self-trust. Here's where we go today: What “righteous victimhood” actually means in decision-making The signs you've shifted from self-compassion into stuckness The difference between validating your pain and defending your limitations The three practical shifts that move you out of stuck and back into agency Why you don't have to choose between being right and being happy If you've been stuck replaying what should be different, and you're tired of feeling justified but not empowered - this is for you. This episode will help you reclaim control, without gaslighting yourself about what's hard.

    AI isn't about productivity. It's about presence.In this special episode, the tables turn and I'm interviewed by Sham Colegado about my new book, Artificial Organizations. We explore why 95% of AI projects fail, why executives don't want more tools — they want their life back — and how the real competitive edge isn't automation, but judgment at speed.If you've been overwhelmed by the explosion of AI tools or unsure where to start, this episode will help you reframe the conversation. This isn't about doing more. It's about deciding better — faster, with clarity and confidence — by combining human instinct with machine intelligence.Key TakeawaysAI Used Only for Productivity Fails: When AI is treated as a cost-cutting tool instead of a transformation system, it rarely creates lasting value.Presence Is the Real Advantage: The goal isn't more output. It's showing up calmer, clearer, and better prepared — so decisions improve.Decision Velocity + Decision Advantage Wins: Make decisions faster and with better information. Speed without clarity is noise. Clarity without speed is stagnation.The Future Belongs to Human + Machine Judgment: Executives who combine instinct with machine intelligence will outperform those relying on either alone.Additional InsightsExecutives Don't Want More Tools — They Want Their Life Back: Leaders aren't overwhelmed by lack of tools. They're overwhelmed by fragmented workflows, constant context switching, and decision fatigue. AI must reduce cognitive load, not add to it.Presence Drives Performance: When AI handles capture and synthesis, leaders show up calmer, more prepared, and more focused. Productivity improves — but performance and clarity are the real unlock.The Identity Threat of AI: Many executives privately fear incompetence. They don't want to look behind or uninformed. That hesitation often shows up as skepticism or avoidance.Decision Velocity Is the New Differentiator: Artificial organizations move faster because they reduce decision latency. Meetings become focused. Context is pre-loaded. Choices are made with confidence.Traits + Tasks + Tools (T3 Model): Start with how you naturally work best. Then amplify your highest-leverage tasks with the right tools.Capture, Transcribe, Synthesize, Act: A simple workflow that turns every conversation into a reusable data asset. This loop compounds judgment and accelerates learning over time.Episode Highlights00:00 – Episode RecapBarry explains why AI used purely for productivity fails — and why the real advantage comes from transforming how leaders make decisions.02:58 – Guest Introduction: Sham ColegadoBarry welcomes Sham Colegado, a key member of the Artificial Organizations team, who interviews Barry about the book and its core ideas.03:32 – “Executives Don't Want More AI Tools”Barry shares the personal burnout moment that sparked a shift from productivity chasing to rethinking how he works.06:02 – AI's Real Promise: Presence Over ProductivityWhy performance and clarity matter more than output — and how AI can make leaders calmer and more focused.09:30 – The Identity Threat of AIExecutives reveal a hidden fear of incompetence and why one-on-one learning environments matter.12:26 – Decision Velocity & Decision AdvantageThe two engines of artificial organizations and how reducing decision latency compounds competitive advantage.15:15 – The Traits, Tasks, Tools FlywheelHow aligning natural strengths with high-leverage work determines which AI tools actually create impact.19:01 – What the Best AI...

    Send a textA drop of blood can change the course of cancer care. Speaking of Women's Health Podcast host Holly Thacker, MD sits down with variant curator Stetson Thacker, PhD to unpack how circulating tumor DNA and tumor‑informed minimal residual disease testing help clinicians see recurrence months before imaging, tailor adjuvant therapy, and track response in real time. Together, they translate complex genomics into clear choices: when a negative MRD result supports de‑escalation, when a persistent positive argues for chemotherapy and how colorectal and breast cancers have led the way in clinical validation.They also cover the guardrails. Not everyone has banked tissue for a tumor‑informed assay, and sensitivity and specificity vary by platform and cancer type. Early multi‑cancer detection tests promise a lot but risk overdiagnosis and anxiety if used without clear indications. The smarter path is matching the right test to the right person at the right time, ideally within guidelines and with an oncologist who can synthesize genomics, imaging, pathology, and patient goals. From colorectal screening shifts to balancing overtreatment in prostate and thyroid cancers, we focus on practical decisions that protect both survival and quality of life.If this deep dive helped you make sense of liquid biopsies and MRD, subscribe, share the episode with someone navigating cancer decisions and leave a review so more listeners can find the show.Support the show
