In this powerful and heartfelt episode, hosts Christopher White and Max Thomas welcome guest Sid, a recovering addict and now a pastor, to share his incredible journey from chaos to redemption. Sid opens up about a loving but challenging childhood, early defiance, school struggles, and the lure of attention-seeking behaviors that led him into a life of crime, addiction, and repeated incarceration.Sid's story is marked by profound experiences — including the trauma of alopecia at a young age, years lost to heroin addiction, and time spent in both youth and adult prisons. He speaks openly about the insanity and devastation caused by his drug use, relationships that suffered, and the deep shame he carried.However, the turning point came when Sid had a spiritual awakening while serving time. Introduced to faith through a prison chaplain, Sid began to reconnect with the values his parents instilled in him. He shares how this encounter sparked a transformation, eventually leading him to Bible college, a new life with his wife, and a calling to become a pastor.The conversation also touches on the addictive design of modern life — from smartphones to fast food — and the importance of long-term gratification, self-awareness, and community in recovery. Sid's testimony illustrates that while the road is long and messy, real change is possible with honesty, connection, and spiritual grounding.A moving reminder that recovery isn't linear — but it is worth it.

We have a new pope, and he's from Chicago! On the second day of the papal conclave Thursday, Cardinal Robert Prevost was elected the 267th pope of the Roman Catholic Church, taking the name Pope Leo XIV. He's the first American citizen to hold the position, but he also spent two decades serving in Peru, before the late Pope Francis chose him for an influential post at the Vatican. Pope Leo XIV now has a very, very big job leading the world's 1.36 billion Catholics amid major tensions within the church, between those aligned with Francis' efforts to make the church more inclusive and those who think those efforts have undermined Catholic tradition. Christopher White, Vatican correspondent for the National Catholic Reporter and author of the forthcoming book 'Pope Leo XIV: Inside the Conclave and the Dawn of a New Papacy,' tells us more about the new pope's selection and what we can expect from his papacy.And in headlines: President Donald Trump unveiled his first big new trade deal with… the United Kingdom, Secretary of Transportation Sean Duffy announced plans for a much-needed update to the nation's air traffic control system, and former President Joe Biden defended his time in office during an interview with The View.Show Notes:Check out Christopher's work –www.ncronline.org/authors/christopher-whiteSubscribe to the What A Day Newsletter – https://tinyurl.com/3kk4nyz8What A Day – YouTube – https://www.youtube.com/@whatadaypodcastFollow us on Instagram – https://www.instagram.com/crookedmedia/For a transcript of this episode, please visit crooked.com/whataday

Tonight's Jazz Feature is by one of trumpet master and Jazz pioneer John Birks "Dizzy" Gillespie's finest groups. It's both fun and serious and an off the wall tribute to some music from the Caribbean, hence the title: Jambo Caribe. The music is by Dizzy's long standing Quintet with James Moody on tenor saxophone and flute, Kenny Barron on piano, Christopher White on bass and vocal, Rudy Collins on drums and added on some tunes Kansas Fields on percussion and surdo drum. Dizzy of course on trumpet and some vocals. The selections include some calypso flavored tunes that are fun and serious at the same time and some straight up Jazz. This album was recorded in November of 1964 in Chicago and although it's a lesser known album from Dizzy's vast output it demonstrates Dizzy's always serious approach to music and his love of entertaining people with style and humor. Enjoy Jambo Caribe, tonight's Jazz Feature.

The Catholic Church is at a crossroads as it prepares to vote for a new leader. Pope Francis died aged 88 on Easter Monday following a stroke and heart failure. His funeral will take place outside St Peter's Basilica on Saturday evening, and then Cardinals will be summoned to Rome to elect his successor. NPR Vatican correspondent Christopher White told Mike Hosking it's anyone's guess who the new pope will be. He says they have to decide whether to continue on the path of reform initiated by Pope Francis —a more welcoming and inclusive church— or to course correct.

Nicolle Wallace on the life and legacy of Pope Francis, known as “the people's pope,” for his championing of humanity and advocacy for the marginalized. Joined by: Steve Liesman, Courtney Kube, Frank Kendall, Anthea Butler, Christopher White, Lee Gelernt, Dahlia Lithwick, Vaughn Hillyard, Jon Meacham, and Mike Barnicle.

Pope Francis, leader of the Catholic Church since 2013, has died at the age of 88. Widely regarded as a progressive reformer, he sought to modernize the church and steer it away from rigid doctrine — making it more inclusive to the needs of the marginalized. Guest host Dave Seglins spoke to CBC's Megan Williams and Christopher White of the National Catholic Reporter about the legacy Francis leaves behind — including his historic apology for Canada's residential school system.

Pope Francis has died. The Vatican announced his death on Easter Monday. He appeared at St Peter's Square to bless thousands of people on Easter Sunday just hours before his death.  The head of the Catholic Church had been in increasingly poor health including spending a lengthy time in hospital with pneumonia. The Catholic world is now in mourning for the 88 year old who was elected in March 2013. He'll be remembered for the progressive, no frills approach he brought to the church.Today, Vatican Correspondent for the National Catholic Reporter, Christopher White on Pope Francis's life and legacy.  Featured:Christopher White, National Catholic Reporter

In this powerful and heartfelt episode of Addicted to Recovery, hosts Christopher White and Max Thomas sit down with guest Alex, a fellow recovering addict, to explore his lived experience of gambling addiction.The conversation starts with a nostalgic reflection as Alex and Max realise they once attended the same school — both unaware at the time that beneath the surface, they were already battling the early signs of addiction. Alex shares his story openly, tracing the roots of his compulsive gambling back to childhood, shaped by family separation, emotional instability, and early exposure to betting through his father's habits.Alex's journey is marked by emotional vulnerability, financial ruin, and the manipulation that so often accompanies addiction. He speaks candidly about his pattern of deception, the toxic cycle of winning and chasing losses, and the crushing shame that kept him isolated for years. His story highlights the often invisible nature of gambling addiction — one that doesn't always carry the visible signs of other dependencies but is just as destructive.Throughout the conversation, Max and Chris reflect on the shared emotional struggles underlying addiction — the inner void, the hunger for validation, and the disconnect between how they appeared to the world and how they felt inside. Alex recounts the moments where addiction had him trapped, including the extraordinary highs and lows of gambling away over £120,000 in a single weekend, and the devastating impact this had on his relationships, self-worth and mental health.Despite the setbacks, Alex also shares how he has begun rebuilding his life. He talks about finding strength through community, his experiences in rehabilitation, and the importance of peer support. Now four months clean — the longest since his addiction began — Alex has also founded Walking and Talking, a safe and non-judgemental group for those struggling with gambling, offering connection and support through simple conversation and companionship.The episode closes on an uplifting note, with Max and Chris emphasising the importance of fellowship, recovery programmes, self-reflection, and honest conversation. Together, they highlight that addiction is about far more than substances or behaviours — it's about the internal battles and emotional wounds we try to numb — and that lasting recovery is possible through connection, action, and community.

In this deeply moving episode of Addicted to Recovery, hosts Christopher White and Max Thomas sit down with Marie, a recovering addict and founder of a life-changing charity for women involved in street prostitution. With raw honesty and vulnerability, Marie opens up about her personal battles with addiction, the lasting effects of childhood trauma, and how those experiences shaped her path.Marie shares how clean time has become a cornerstone of her accountability and personal growth, emphasising that staying sober is about more than simply abstaining from substances—it's about healing emotionally and mentally. She reflects on the profound impact of unresolved trauma from her early life, and how it fed into the patterns of her addiction. From a young age, Marie felt different and disconnected, leading her to seek comfort in destructive behaviours, including food and substance abuse.Her story unfolds with powerful moments of hardship, from early motherhood and turbulent relationships to the devastating consequences of addiction. Yet within that darkness, Marie found a turning point—a moment of clarity that propelled her towards recovery. Through multiple cycles of relapse and surrender, she began building a new life rooted in self-awareness, community, and service.Marie speaks candidly about the importance of self-soothing and emotional regulation in recovery, and how learning to face discomfort without escape was transformative. She also discusses the healing power of making amends and rebuilding broken relationships, a process that brought deeper understanding and peace into her life.Today, Marie dedicates her life to supporting women trapped in cycles of street prostitution and addiction, using her own journey as a beacon of hope. Her work through her charity not only helps others, but continues to ground her own recovery, giving her purpose and fulfilment. This episode is a powerful reminder that recovery is not a destination—it's a lifelong journey of self-discovery, connection, and giving back.

Voilà une question improbable : quel est le poids d'Internet ? Aussi absurde que cela puisse paraître, certains scientifiques ont pris l'exercice très au sérieux. Des chercheurs comme Russell Seitz, Christopher White et Daniel Whiteson se sont lancés dans des calculs étonnants pour tenter de répondre à cette question. Résultat : des estimations aussi farfelues que fascinantes.Première approche, celle du physicien Russell Seitz en 2006. Il estime le poids d'Internet à 50 grammes, soit l'équivalent de deux fraises, en se basant sur la masse d'énergie nécessaire pour faire fonctionner les serveurs. Une méthode contestée par Christopher White, directeur de NEC Laboratories America, qui la juge trop simpliste. Quant au physicien Daniel Whiteson, il trouve la démarche absurde, la comparant à une tentative d'estimer le prix d'un donut en divisant la production mondiale par le PIB global. Une équation impossible.Autre méthode : mesurer la masse des électrons qui transportent l'information sur le Web. En 2025, le magazine Discover a ainsi calculé que le poids d'Internet ne dépassait pas une fraction de gramme, soit un filet de jus de fraise. Une approche qui, là encore, divise : elle se concentre sur la transmission des données, et non sur Internet lui-même. Christopher White propose une solution alternative : regrouper toutes les données stockées sur Internet en un seul endroit et mesurer l'énergie nécessaire pour les coder. Selon lui, avec 175 zettaoctets de données prévues d'ici 2025, Internet pèserait environ 53 quadrillionnièmes de gramme. Infime. Et si on comparait tout ça à de l'ADN ? Un gramme d'ADN stocke 215 pétaoctets de données. Avec 175 zettaoctets, il faudrait près d'une tonne d'ADN, soit 10,6 Américains, un tiers de Cybertruck ou 64 000 fraises. Pas vraiment précis, mais frappant. Finalement, Internet est-il pesable ? Difficile à dire. Chaque méthode repose sur des hypothèses différentes et n'offre qu'une vision partielle de cette immense toile d'informations. Christopher White lui-même l'admet : « Internet est essentiellement inconnaissable. » Au-delà des chiffres, cette réflexion souligne nos limites face à un espace numérique en constante évolution.

In this episode of Addicted to Recovery, hosts Christopher White and Max Thomas sit down with Raymond Ramos, a passionate advocate for recovery who has dedicated his life to helping addicts find hope and healing. Having been in recovery for over 34 years, Raymond shares his journey from addiction to a life of service and transformation.Raymond has been sharing his story in UK and US prisons for over 13 years, emphasizing the importance of hope and transformation. He discusses the impact of his visits, how prisoners react to his Brooklyn accent, and the power of seeing someone who once walked their path now living a fulfilling life in recovery. He stresses that carrying the message to those in dark places is his most meaningful service work.The role of service in recovery is a central theme in this episode. Raymond emphasizes the importance of H&I (Hospitals & Institutions) service, recalling how he first heard the message of recovery in a similar setting. He encourages consistent service, noting that people often stop doing what worked for them once they get clean, which can lead to relapse. The conversation highlights the significance of simple service commitments, like making coffee at meetings, and how they contribute to stability and responsibility.Raymond shares his childhood struggles, growing up in Brooklyn as a Nuyorican with a single mother and experiencing deep-seated trauma, including his mother's grief over losing a child and his own battle with a congenital heart disease. He talks about the emotional pain of an absent father and how early feelings of shame, abandonment, and separation anxiety planted the seeds for addiction. Reflecting on recovery, he discusses how step work helped him uncover and address these underlying wounds.His addiction began early, starting with alcohol at the age of five and progressing to marijuana by age ten. By 13, he was using cocaine, and at 15, he was smoking crack. He describes how his life quickly spiraled, leading him to crime, violence, and a complete loss of control. His turning point came at 17, when he heard an H&I speaker share the message of recovery, sparking hope and change. Since getting clean, he has dedicated his life to helping others, particularly those who are still suffering in jails and institutions.Raymond discusses the necessity of a spiritual solution in recovery, sharing that many people relapse because they neglect their spiritual growth. He explains that addiction isn't just about substances—it's a disease that affects the mind, body, and soul. The conversation highlights the importance of humility, continued learning, and staying connected to recovery principles.This episode serves as a powerful reminder of the life-changing potential of recovery. Raymond's story is one of transformation, resilience, and service, making it an inspiring listen for anyone struggling with addiction or working in the recovery space.Tune in to Addicted to Recovery for more raw and real conversations about the journey to sobriety.

In this episode of Addicted to Recovery, hosts Christopher White and Max Thomas are joined by guest Terry to explore the intricate and deeply personal journey of addiction, recovery, and self-growth. The conversation sheds light on the complexities of substance dependence, the underlying emotional struggles, and the pivotal role that connection and fellowship play in the healing process. Through their shared experiences, they emphasise that recovery is not a destination but an ongoing journey—one that requires continuous effort, self-reflection, and support from others.A key theme that emerges is the contrast between material success and inner fulfilment. The hosts and Terry discuss how external achievements, wealth, and recognition often fail to fill the void left by addiction. Instead, true healing comes from vulnerability, self-acceptance, and meaningful relationships. They highlight the common misconception that personal worth is tied to accomplishments, stressing that addiction is frequently rooted in a deep need for validation and love. By confronting these emotional wounds, individuals in recovery can begin to build a more fulfilling and authentic life.Throughout the discussion, the importance of vulnerability is underscored as a crucial factor in overcoming the stigma of addiction. By openly sharing struggles, those in recovery can break down barriers, foster deeper connections, and challenge the shame often associated with substance use. The episode also touches on the reality that relapse can be part of the recovery process, but it does not define a person's journey. Rather than viewing it as failure, relapse can be an opportunity for learning and growth.Another critical aspect of the conversation is the role of fantasy and escapism as coping mechanisms for deeper emotional pain. Terry reflects on the ways in which acting and creative expression served as outlets, sometimes masking unresolved issues. The discussion extends to food addiction and bulimia, illustrating how addictive behaviours can manifest in various forms beyond substance abuse. Through these stories, the episode highlights the diverse paths addiction can take and the necessity of addressing its underlying causes.The conversation also delves into the power of spirituality in recovery, emphasising that while spirituality can be deeply personal, it does not have to be tied to religion. Maintaining a sense of spiritual connection—whether through mindfulness, meditation, or a higher power—can help individuals stay grounded and present in their healing journey. Recovery, as the hosts and Terry discuss, is about embracing the present moment, accepting oneself fully, and continuously working towards growth.Ultimately, this episode serves as a reminder that healing is possible with the right support and mindset. Through candid reflections and powerful insights, Christopher, Max, and Terry offer listeners a deeper understanding of addiction and the transformative potential of recovery. Whether struggling with addiction personally or supporting a loved one, this episode reinforces the message that no one has to navigate this journey alone.

Pope Francis has been in critical condition. We get the latest on what's going on with Christopher White, Vatican correspondent for the National Catholic Reporter

In this episode of Addicted to Recovery, hosts Christopher White and Max Thomas sit down with Chef Adam Hardiman, a recovering addict, to explore his deeply personal journey through addiction and recovery. Adam opens up about his childhood experiences and the family dynamics that shaped his early years, offering insight into how his struggles with anxiety and self-worth influenced his path. He recounts the pivotal moments that led to his introduction to substances during adolescence, emphasising the role of peer pressure and the search for validation. As the conversation unfolds, Adam details the gradual escalation of his addiction, culminating in a serious health crisis that resulted in hospitalisation. His battle with prescription painkillers and the manipulation tactics he used to sustain his dependency highlight the complexities of addiction and the challenges of seeking help.Throughout the discussion, Adam reflects on the uncomfortable but necessary process of personal growth, noting how facing difficult emotions has been essential to his recovery. He shares how moving to London marked a continuation of his struggles, but also set the stage for a turning point in his life. A key moment in Adam's journey was a heart-wrenching confrontation with his mother, whose love and concern forced him to acknowledge the reality of his situation. He discusses the cycle of addiction, including the concept of cross addiction—how he justified replacing one substance with another—and the desperate moments that eventually led him to rehab.The latter half of the episode shifts focus to the hope and transformation that come with recovery. Adam describes his experience in rehab as a new beginning, a space where he could finally confront his past and start rebuilding his life. He speaks candidly about the challenges of life after rehab, acknowledging that recovery is an ongoing process filled with setbacks but also immense growth. One of the most profound aspects of his journey has been the power of fellowship—sharing his story, embracing support from others in recovery, and finding purpose through fatherhood. His experience serves as a testament to the resilience of the human spirit and the possibility of change, reinforcing the message that if he can do it, anyone can.

In this episode of Addicted to Recovery, hosts Christopher White and Max Thomas sit down with Suzanne, a fellow recovering addict, for an open and deeply personal conversation about the power of fellowship, self-awareness, and service in the recovery journey.

She discusses the profound impact of connection in recovery, particularly for women, and how finding a supportive fellowship has been instrumental in her healing.The conversation highlights the vital role of sponsorship and service, emphasising how helping others can, in turn, strengthen one's own recovery.

They reaffirm that recovery is an ongoing process, requiring consistent effort, reflection, and a commitment to personal growth. Most importantly, they remind listeners that a fulfilling, substance-free life is not only possible but deeply rewarding when built on connection, service, and resilience.

Urgent calls to restrict access of children and teens to online porn, new research looks at safeguards that prevent child sexual abuse in churches, and what's the line between faith and entertainment culture?

In countries where governments drove major investigations into child sexual abuse, churches have since imposed much stronger safeguards for children. That's according to a new study by the Australian Catholic University.

When talking about God, angels, etc., you may sometimes hear it described as a "spiritual/higher dimension". In fact, authors such as Billy Graham and C. S. Lewis used just such language. It's an interesting description, but what does it mean? Are there other dimensions? Are they like the three dimensions of space we have only... more? Where did this talk come from? Joining us today is Dr. Christopher White, an expert on the origin of and conversation around higher dimensions and their relationship to Christian faith.

Welcome to The Nonlinear Library, where we use Text-to-Speech software to convert the best writing from the Rationalist and EA communities into audio. This is: Dependency Tree For The Development Of Plate Tectonics, published by Elizabeth on October 5, 2022 on LessWrong. This post is really rough and mostly meant to refer back to when I've produced more work on the subject. Proceed at your own risk. Introduction As I mentioned a few weeks ago I am working on a project on how scientific paradigms are developed. I generated a long list of questions and picked plate tectonics as my first case study. I immediately lost interest in the original questions and wanted to make a dependency graph/tech tree for the development of the paradigm, and this is just a personal project so I did that instead. I didn't reach a stopping point with this graph other than “I felt done and wanted to start on my second case study”. I'm inconsistent about the level of detail or how far back I go. I tried to go back and mark whether data collection was motivated by theory or practical issues but didn't fill it in for every node, even when it was knowable. Working on a second case study felt more useful than refining this one further so I'm shipping this version. “Screw it I'm shipping” is kind of the theme of this blog post, but that's partially because I'm not sure which things are most valuable. Questions, suggestions, or additions are extremely welcome as they help me narrow in on the important parts. But heads up the answer might be “I don't remember and don't think it's important enough to look up”. My current intention is to circle back after 1 or 2 more case studies and do some useful compare and contrast, but maybe I'll find something better. And if you're really masochistic, here's the yEd file to play with. Scattered Thoughts Why I chose plate tectonics It's recent enough to have relatively good documentation, but not so recent the major players are alive and active in field politics. It's not a sexy topic, so while there isn't much work on it what exists is pretty high quality. It is the only accepted paradigm in its field (for the implicit definition of paradigm in my head). Most paradigms are credited to one person on Wikipedia, even though that one person needed many other people's work and the idea was refined by many people after they created it. Plate tectonics is the first I've found that didn't do that. Continental drift is attributed to Alfred Wegener, but continental drift is not plate tectonics. Plate tectonics is acknowledged as so much of a group effort wikipedia doesn't give anyone's name. Content notes This graph is based primarily on Plate Tectonics: An Insider's History of the Modern Theory of the Earth, edited by Naomi Oreskes. It also includes parts from this lecture by Christopher White, and Oxford's Very Short Introduction to Plate Tectonics. Sources vary on how much Alfred Wegener knew when he proposed continental drift. Some say he only had the fossil and continental shape data, but the White video says he had also used synchronous geological layers and evidence of glacial travel. I tried to resolve this by reading Wegener's original paper (translated into English) but it only left me more confused. He predicted cracks in plates being filled in by magma, but only mentions fossils once. Moreover he only brings them up to point to fossils of plants that are clearly maladapted to the climate of their current location, not the transcontinental weirdnesses. He does casually mention “Concerning South America and Africa, biologists and geologists are in close agreement that a Brazilian–African continent existed in the Mesozoic”, but clearly he's not the first one to make that argument. I alas ran out of steam before trying Wegener's book. I was stymied in attempts to check his references by the fact that they're in German. If you really love reading historic academic German and would like to pair on this, please let me know....

One is an elaborate scientific theory developed by the world's most talented physicists. The other is a spiritual practice widely thought of as backward, the product of a mystical world view fading under the modern scientific gaze. But Christopher G. White sees striking similarities. He does not claim that séances or other spiritual practices are science. Yet he points to ways that both spiritual practices and scientific speculation about multiverses and invisible dimensions are efforts to peer into the hidden elements and even the existential meaning of the universe. Other Worlds examines how the idea that the universe has multiple, invisible dimensions has inspired science fiction, fantasy novels, films, modern art, and all manner of spiritual thought reaching well beyond the realm of formal religion. Drawing on a range of international archives, White analyzes how writers, artists, filmmakers, televangelists, and others have used the scientific idea of invisible dimensions to make supernatural phenomena such as ghosts and miracles seem more reasonable and make spiritual beliefs possible again for themselves and others. Many regard scientific ideas as disenchanting and secularizing, but Other Worlds shows that these ideas—creatively appropriated in such popular forms as C. S. Lewis's Chronicles of Narnia, the art of Salvador Dalí, or the books of the counterculture physicist “Dr. Quantum”—restore a sense that the world is greater than anything our eyes can see, helping to forge an unexpected kind of spirituality.
