In this episode of The Sacred Speaks, host Dr. John W. Price sits down with Elise Loehnen—writer, researcher, and author of On Our Best Behavior, a book that explores how the ancient moral framework of the seven deadly sins has been internalized by women, shaping their identities, relationships, and sense of worth. This conversation is not just a review—it's a ritual inquiry. Together, John and Elise explore: The invisible “scripts” that define femininity in a patriarchal culture; How envy, pride, sloth, and other so-called “sins” reveal deeper spiritual truths; What Elise risked—and learned—by stepping out from her “invisibility cloak”; How patriarchal systems harm men as well, and the cost of emotional suppression; How men and women can co-create a future rooted in collaboration, not competition The role of grief, longing, and sacred agency in personal and cultural awakening; Elise also shares behind-the-scenes insight into her writing process, her podcast Pulling the Thread, and her evolving work around binaries, individuation, and collective healing. This episode is part of a broader arc on The Sacred Speaks focused on rebalancing the masculine and feminine within us and in our culture. Join John for the upcoming live webinar: Reframing Suffering – The Little Teachers Explore anxiety, jealousy, and shame as sacred messengers

On this episode of Crazy Wisdom, host Stewart Alsop speaks with Ivan Vendrov for a deep and thought-provoking conversation covering AI, intelligence, societal shifts, and the future of human-machine interaction. They explore the "bitter lesson" of AI—that scale and compute ultimately win—while discussing whether progress is stalling and what bottlenecks remain. The conversation expands into technology's impact on democracy, the centralization of power, the shifting role of the state, and even the mythology needed to make sense of our accelerating world. You can find more of Ivan's work at nothinghuman.substack.com or follow him on Twitter at @IvanVendrov.Check out this GPT we trained on the conversation!Timestamps00:00 Introduction and Setting00:21 The Bitter Lesson in AI02:03 Challenges in AI Data and Infrastructure04:03 The Role of User Experience in AI Adoption08:47 Evaluating Intelligence and Divergent Thinking10:09 The Future of AI and Society18:01 The Role of Big Tech in AI Development24:59 Humanism and the Future of Intelligence29:27 Exploring Kafka and Tolkien's Relevance29:50 Tolkien's Insights on Machine Intelligence30:06 Samuel Butler and Machine Sovereignty31:03 Historical Fascism and Machine Intelligence31:44 The Future of AI and Biotech32:56 Voice as the Ultimate Human-Computer Interface36:39 Social Interfaces and Language Models39:53 Javier Malay and Political Shifts in Argentina50:16 The State of Society in the U.S.52:10 Concluding Thoughts on Future ProspectsKey InsightsThe Bitter Lesson Still Holds, but AI Faces Bottlenecks – Ivan Vendrov reinforces Rich Sutton's "bitter lesson" that AI progress is primarily driven by scaling compute and data rather than human-designed structures. While this principle still applies, AI progress has slowed due to bottlenecks in high-quality language data and GPU availability. This suggests that while AI remains on an exponential trajectory, the next major leaps may come from new forms of data, such as video and images, or advancements in hardware infrastructure.The Future of AI Is Centralization and Fragmentation at the Same Time – The conversation highlights how AI development is pulling in two opposing directions. On one hand, large-scale AI models require immense computational resources and vast amounts of data, leading to greater centralization in the hands of Big Tech and governments. On the other hand, open-source AI, encryption, and decentralized computing are creating new opportunities for individuals and small communities to harness AI for their own purposes. The long-term outcome is likely to be a complex blend of both centralized and decentralized AI ecosystems.User Interfaces Are a Major Limiting Factor for AI Adoption – Despite the power of AI models like GPT-4, their real-world impact is constrained by poor user experience and integration. Vendrov suggests that AI has created a "UX overhang," where the intelligence exists but is not yet effectively integrated into daily workflows. Historically, technological revolutions take time to diffuse, as seen with the dot-com boom, and the current AI moment may be similar—where the intelligence exists but society has yet to adapt to using it effectively.Machine Intelligence Will Radically Reshape Cities and Social Structures – Vendrov speculates that the future will see the rise of highly concentrated AI-powered hubs—akin to "mile by mile by mile" cubes of data centers—where the majority of economic activity and decision-making takes place. This could create a stark divide between AI-driven cities and rural or off-grid communities that choose to opt out. He draws a parallel to Robin Hanson's Age of Em and suggests that those who best serve AI systems will hold power, while others may be marginalized or reduced to mere spectators in an AI-driven world.The Enlightenment's Individualism Is Being Challenged by AI and Collective Intelligence – The discussion touches on how Western civilization's emphasis on the individual may no longer align with the realities of intelligence and decision-making in an AI-driven era. Vendrov argues that intelligence is inherently collective—what matters is not individual brilliance but the ability to recognize and leverage diverse perspectives. This contradicts the traditional idea of intelligence as a singular, personal trait and suggests a need for new frameworks that incorporate AI into human networks in more effective ways.Javier Milei's Libertarian Populism Reflects a Global Trend Toward Radical Experimentation – The rise of Argentina's President Javier Milei exemplifies how economic desperation can drive societies toward bold, unconventional leaders. Vendrov and Alsop discuss how Milei's appeal comes not just from his radical libertarianism but also from his blunt honesty and willingness to challenge entrenched power structures. His movement, however, raises deeper questions about whether libertarianism alone can provide a stable social foundation, or if voluntary cooperation and civil society must be explicitly cultivated to prevent libertarian ideals from collapsing into chaos.AI, Mythology, and the Need for New Narratives – The conversation closes with a reflection on the power of mythology in shaping human understanding of technological change. Vendrov suggests that as AI reshapes the world, new myths will be needed to make sense of it—perhaps similar to Tolkien's elves fading as the age of men begins. He sees AI as part of an inevitable progression, where human intelligence gives way to something greater, but argues that this transition must be handled with care. The stories we tell about AI will shape whether we resist, collaborate, or simply fade into irrelevance in the face of machine intelligence.

For example, if I think Alphabet is a great stock and I buy it, but I turn out to be wrong, then the truth of the market will punish me as the feedback comes in, and I will lose my money.”* A group is not a truth-seeking entity: “Individuals can seek truth and then, based on that, they can choose to cooperate with others for limited periods of time to effectuate that truth or to have something come out of it.”* Are we running out of resources? Nope. “There's not a single resource you could point to that was a resource in the classic commodity sense that had any real value where we ran out in some harmful way.”* “If climate change is an issue—and it's hard to discuss because it's become so politicized—we can carbon capture out of the environment.”* “Whether it's nuclear fusion, rocketry, immortality, fighting viruses, or computing, almost all the innovation of the last 50 years has come in the unregulated industries.”* This is what AGI people get wrong: “There's no intelligence that can fundamentally understand something humans can't understand.”* Everybody wants the latest and greatest of everything: “Would you even go back 10 years and lose out on all the medicines, computing, knowledge, and travel we've invented? Absolutely not. I wouldn't even go back to the iPhone 14.”Why You Have Advantages Over Elon and Bezos: * You probably have more time to go to the gym than they do* They have the same iPhone you do* They might eat slightly better food, but it's basically the samePopper's concept of falsifiability is key: Statements that can't be disproven are meaningless, e.g., “we live in a simulation.”* The free will debate is similarly non-falsifiable and unproductiveThere's no such thing as misinformation: “Your information is my misinformation; my information is your misinformation.”Explaining The Silk Road – History102 With Rudyard Lynch and Erik Torenberg “Totalitarianism is a very feminine attempt to gain total order over your life. It's basically asking for daddy state to peg you harder.” – Rudyard Lynch* “The state is at best a dildo. It can never be a real penis, and thus it will never really satisfy you.” – RudyardWhat Woke Really Is: Wokeness is one of six different types of totalitarian movements in history and it perfectly fits the definition of totalitarianismWhat Was the Silk Road: The Silk Road was an emergent phenomenon that developed over thousands of years due to discrete connections between the four major Eurasian civilizations, which were Europe, the Middle East (Islam), India, and ChinaThe 3 Peaks of the Silk Road:* First peak: Roman-Han Dynasty Golden Age* Second peak: The Islamic Golden Age* Third peak: The Mongol EmpireA paradox of the Silk Road: As the system integrates closer, it shatters because it integrates too much* The convergence of disease pools from around the world; in one instance, one-third of Eurasia's population was killed by a plague as a result of disease pools convergingFracincense Was a Legit Luxury Item: The Silk Road was mostly luxury trading, except for the late medieval period in the Indian Ocean Silk Road* Arabia exported horses, frankincense, and myrrh* China was completely addicted to Arabian frankincense; this was one of the most significant trading nodes of the 11th century!The Europeans Killed the Silk Road (That in the Mongols Killing Everyone): The Europeans entered the Indian Ocean trading system in the early 1500s by sailing around the bottom of Africa* First the Portuguese, then the Dutch* The Portuguese seized control of the entire Indian Ocean system in a ten-year period* The land routes of the Silk Road eventually died out because the oceanic trade routes were betterMongolian Death Toll: The Mongols killed close to 100 million people in the pre-industrial worldDr. Bernardo Huberman: How to Use Curiosity & Focus to Create a Joyful & Meaningful Life | Huberman LabThere are ways to know what's true and what's not true: “Reading about physics and understanding that there are laws that tell you how things work gave me a tremendous sense of order and power.” – BernardoThere are two things our brains weren't made by evolution to understand intuitively: relativity and quantum physicsBernardo explains the basics of relativity:* Einstein discovered that the speed of light is constant, no matter how fast you're moving relative to it* This makes simultaneity (two events happening at the same time) relative* For example, Andrew and Bernardo might agree it's 1:10 now, but if one of them moves very fast, their clock would show a different timeChaos Theory: Bernardo was one of the discoverers of chaos in several physical systems, a tiny difference in initial conditions can take you to very different outcomes* “In classical mechanics, chaos is all about sensitivity to initial conditions.” – Bernardo* Chaos exists in almost every physical system, even in neurons in the brain!Signup at Podcastnotes.org to unlock the full notes and Premium Newsletter Thank you for subscribing.

Individualism versus collectivism is a false binary. Lower-order organic identities — such as family, faith, and community — have repeatedly proven to be the only effective forces against the imposition of top-down despotism. The true battle is not between individualism and collectivism but between ordered liberty and disordered tyranny.

Just another name for another version of humanist ideologies elevated and disseminated by power players to mask totalitarianism, which seeks to subdue and commoditize the human body & spirit for money and power.And at the end of it all, you own nothing, and you're happy (so says Klaus Schwab & the WEF).Of course it's not really THAT simple but it's a start. The bottom line is that Western, enlightened civilization is under ATTACK and we need to understand our enemy in order to STOP them.To help us understand the nature of the enemy, we are pleased to welcome Dr. James Lindsay, an author, mathematician, philosopher and professional troublemaker! He is an expert on a range of subjects including religion, the philosophy of science and critical theory.Most recently James has been featured in the blockbuster documentary Beneath Sheep's Clothing, a gripping documentary which explains VERY clearly the tactics and techniques of the ISM ideologies and how they infiltrate free societies of people.How is it that regular people fall for brutal subjugation, total control and complete despotism time and time again? The answer is by accident of course. The unsuspecting sheep are led astray by ravenous wolves posing as saviors and protectors.No one is safe. Only knowledge can save us. And today we LEARN with Dr. James Lindsay.Beneath Sheep's Clothing takes the mask off of totalitarianism and explores what lies beneath the surface of seemingly innocent characters and narratives.

[SEGMENT 2-1] Define extremism (best of) [X] SB – Black man says in 1000000 years he wouldn't vote for Harris What is an extremist to the Left? Grow up in a two-parent household Not be molested by an uncle or a coach To get a decent real education with NO indoctrination To find a career that you love To find a life-partner that you love and respect To have friends you can count on, and with whom you might not necessarily agree all the time. To enjoy the things in life that you desire, e.g. travel, woodworking, hunting, fishing, or whatever as long as it doesn't infringe upon others. To live in decent environs and be left alone. What's so bad about that? [SEGMENT 2-2] Kamala Harris exposed [X] SB – Black man says in 1000000 he wouldn't vote for Kamala Harris [X] SB – Black rapper [X] SB – CNN calls out Kamala Harris for energy hypocrisy [SEGMENT 2-3] More on the identity crisis We have services that protect our identity, Life Lock, for example. We even know the importance of identity, as the government established HIPAA laws to protect our identity. Corporations are told to protect our data, i.e. our identities online, and we receive many cautions to that effect all the time. To have one's identity stolen can wreak havoc in your life. What Musk insightfully points out is the identity crisis in America. And the identity crisis of today touches on timeless philosophical debates about self, individualism, and collective identity. From ancient to modern thinkers, the struggle to understand the self has been at the core of human inquiry. And many would agree that today's crisis reflects both a departure from and a misunderstanding of these deeper philosophical traditions. The Search for the Self: Ancient Philosophers The quest to "know oneself" has deep roots in philosophy, epitomized by Socrates, whose aphorism "Know thyself" urges us to explore our own nature. For Socrates, this exploration was not merely about personal identity but understanding our place in the moral universe. The self, to him, was intimately tied to wisdom and virtue rather than external categories like race or gender. Similarly, Plato viewed the self as a reflection of universal truths, suggesting that the soul (the essence of self) exists beyond material distinctions. Like Socrates, Plato's ideas oppose today's focus on identities like gender or sexuality, instead calling for an understanding of self that transcends physical and social categories. I recall a family road trip where we picked up a man whose 18-wheeler had broken down. He was a 20-something white guy, and very chatty. He said something profound during his time with us. Interestingly, he mentioned that he was only driving a truck until he found something better. He said that he still needed to "find himself". After we let him out at a truck stop, I asked my grandmother why he said he needed to "find himself". She said that he was searching for meaning in his life, and that's what he meant. I joked that he was "right here!" Little did I know how this would impact me later, as I needed to find myself. Nature vs. Nurture: Enlightenment Thinkers The tension between nature and nurture has been another longstanding philosophical debate. John Locke, the English Enlightenment thinker, famously argued that the mind is a "blank slate" (tabula rasa) upon which experience writes. In contrast, Jean-Jacques Rousseau proposed that humans are born inherently good, but society corrupts them. Both philosophers emphasized that individual experience and societal influence jointly shape identity. However, modern society's obsession with social categories may suggest an inversion of this idea. Collectivism—the pressure to conform to social groups based on external identity markers like race or gender—has, in the eyes of critics, stifled individualism. This sentiment is echoed by Alexis de Tocqueville, who warned that democracy could, paradoxically foster a "tyranny of the majority" where societal pressures subdue individual liberty. I suggest that we all struggle with this concept from time to time. Perhaps you are stuck in a rut, and can't seem to deprogram. Is it genetic or have you learned from experience to procrastinate, for example? [SEGMENT 2-4] More on the identity crisis 2 That's not who we are. In my case, I chronicled in my first book, The BIG Black Lie how I always felt the tug of my father's DNA, as I assessed my place in the world. My father was not a good man, and I often felt like I would undoubtedly follow in his footsteps. It took far too long for me to dismiss this notion, and allow the nurture of my maternal family assuage my angst. Freud and Jung: Inner and Outer Identity The duality of man is something I thought about at a young age. And for the reasons stated earlier this duality involved my father. Funny how most of life's problems do revolve around childhood. Which brings me to Sigmund Freud. In what was validated by Freud and Jung, I noted how I had one public facing me, and the other me that I hid. I learned later that Freud introduced another layer to identity by focusing on the unconscious mind. He argued that unresolved internal conflicts shaped our sense of self more than societal categories. Carl Jung, a contemporary of Freud expanded on Freud's theory. Jung emphasized that individual identity must reconcile both our conscious persona and our collective unconscious (archetypes shared by humanity). This need to balance personal individuality with collective archetypes aligns with my observation that we belong to broad collectives like being human and being American, while still retaining individuality. I propose further that one's individuality must be well-balanced with the various collectives. For example, I am human, however I don't espouse to all human nature. Ergo, my individual, my self as it were will not give into the collective if I believe the collective to be flawed. Criticism of Modern Identity Politics Many critics of modern identity politics argue that identity politics diminishes the importance of individuality. George Orwell warned in his novel 1984 of the dangers of collective identity leading to oppression. Today, some, like Jordan Peterson argue that by emphasizing identity categories like race, gender, or sexuality, modern society risks reducing people to labels rather than focusing on their personal virtues and capabilities. I happen to agree. My question about why society wants so desperately for me to be part of the "alt collectives" can be understood when illuminated as the tension between individualism and collectivism. While Western societies historically valorized the individual, as reflected in Ralph Waldo Emerson's essay "Self-Reliance," today's focus on identity politics often prioritizes group membership over personal agency. The collectivist trend I observe can thus be seen as a reversal of this traditional Western emphasis on the individual. In this reversal, the individual is at risk of being destroyed. The Crisis of Individualism The modern obsession with identity that I observe turns what should be private traits—like sexuality—into public markers of social distinction. Charles Taylor refers to this as the "politics of recognition." Thus, today society increasingly demands that personal identities be publicly acknowledged and validated, most notably with the use of self-ascribed pronouns. However, this emphasis on group identities can overshadow the deeper, more universal aspects of human experience that bind us all together. What is the collective, if we can subcategorized to the nth degree? Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-kevin-jackson-show--2896352/support.

On this episode of Crazy Wisdom, host Stewart Alsop interviews Yaron Brook, chairman of the Ayn Rand Institute and host of "The Yaron Brook Show" on YouTube. They explore a range of topics including the recent political developments in Argentina with the rise of libertarian figure Javier Milei, the intersection of libertarianism and religion, and critiques of anarcho-capitalism. Yaron Brook also shares his thoughts on how culture and politics shape freedom, the significance of reason, and the role of technology in shaping the future. You can find more about Yaron's work on his YouTube channel and the Ayn Rand Institute's website aynrand.org.Time Stamps00:28 Discussing Libertarianism and Objectivism02:08 Analyzing Anarcho-Capitalism03:52 Millet's Political Actions and Challenges07:43 Comparing Libertarian Leaders16:59 Cultural and Philosophical Foundations of Liberty18:24 Historical Context of Liberty25:30 Current Political Landscape and Challenges30:02 Comfort and Radicalism in Modern Society30:43 Immigration and Cultural Discomfort31:42 European Immigration and Political Shifts33:14 The Right-Wing Political Landscape34:20 The Golden Age and Technological Progress35:31 The Influence of Greek Philosophy37:38 The Renaissance and Rediscovery of Greek Ideas39:55 The Enlightenment and Scientific Revolution41:09 Christianity and Individualism44:01 The Future of Technology and Freedom47:16 Living in Latin America: Freedom and Safety52:43 El Salvador's Approach to Crime and GovernanceLibertarianism's Global Moment: Yaron Brook reflects on the significance of Javier Milei's rise to power in Argentina, noting that Milei is the first self-identified libertarian elected to a major political position. This moment represents a test of libertarian principles in governance, but it also highlights the challenges libertarians face when trying to implement free-market policies in a culture that hasn't fully embraced the underlying philosophical foundation of liberty.The Contradiction of Anarcho-Capitalism: Brook explains why he believes anarcho-capitalism is a contradiction in terms. He argues that capitalism requires a government to enforce laws, protect individual rights, and maintain a monopoly on the legitimate use of force. Without such an authority, he contends that society would descend into chaos, resembling a cartel-dominated environment like that of Mexico, where competing factions destroy markets rather than protect them.Libertarianism's Philosophical Weakness: A recurring theme in the conversation is the critique of libertarianism's philosophical inconsistency. Brook contrasts libertarianism with objectivism, which he sees as a more coherent and philosophically grounded worldview. He criticizes libertarians for embracing a "big tent" approach that allows for religious and anarchist factions, which dilutes the movement's commitment to reason, individualism, and true freedom.Religion and Libertarianism: The conversation touches on the influence of religion within the libertarian movement, particularly in Milei's case. Brook acknowledges that many libertarians are religious, but he argues that objectivism, as an atheistic philosophy, offers a more consistent framework for defending individual rights. He expresses concern that religious elements in Milei's platform, such as his anti-abortion stance, could undermine the broader goal of achieving a society based on individual freedom.The Role of Culture in Political Change: Brook emphasizes that lasting political change requires a corresponding cultural shift. He argues that while Milei may implement free-market policies, the Argentine culture remains largely statist. Without a cultural embrace of individualism, personal responsibility, and reason, Brook is skeptical that Milei's reforms can succeed in the long term. He warns that politics is downstream of culture, and real freedom must be rooted in a philosophical commitment to individual rights.Technology as a Double-Edged Sword: In discussing the future of freedom, Brook points to the potential of technology to both advance and suppress liberty. While technological innovation, such as artificial intelligence and blockchain, offers hope for economic growth and efficiency, Brook cautions that these tools can also be used by authoritarian regimes to tighten their control over citizens. He uses China's use of AI for surveillance and social credit systems as an example of how technology can be weaponized against freedom.The Misalignment of Libertarians with Authoritarian Leaders: Brook criticizes certain libertarians, especially in the U.S., for aligning themselves with authoritarian figures like Trump and Putin. He contrasts this with Milei's foreign policy, which he admires for being pro-American and pro-Israel, and for rejecting alliances with authoritarian regimes like China and Russia. Brook warns that libertarians who associate with authoritarian leaders are damaging the movement's credibility and principles.
The decision to cut off a family member is a difficult one. Estrangement is an attempt to solve a painful, systemic relationship problem. This monumental move should be deeply considered, and my collectivist approach to therapy encourages being curious about and striving to understand how the different contexts our family members—epsecially those with a generational divide—grew up and live within can impact how we show up in our relationships. Without, of course, ever dismissing the very real trauma that can precede an estrangement.In this in-depth solo episode, I explore the dynamics of cut-offs, including what both the official research and my recent social media survey have to say. Then, I offer three relational self-awareness questions for folks on both sides of the estrangement experience: those considering cutting off a family member and those who are about to be or have been cut off.These questions aim to support compassionate dialogue that increases both party's chances of finding a solution. Whether you are the estranger or the estranged, it is my hope that this conversation will leave you with some tools and a perspective you may not have considered, one that takes each person's lived experience into consideration and opens up the possibility of finding a middle ground between an unhealthy status quo and walking away.Relevant Links:Get your companion workbook - https://www.dralexandrasolomon.com/cutoffMy talk on 1A: “When Loved Ones Become Strangers” - https://the1a.org/segments/when-loved-ones-become-strangers/Reimagining Love Episode: “End or Mend: Managing Difficult Family Relationships with Nedra Tawwab” - https://dralexandrasolomon.com/podcasts/end-or-mend-managing-difficult-family-relationships-with-nedra-tawwab/APA article: “Estrangement Is Never Easy or Straightforward.

What roles do our left and right brains play in creativity and mysticism? How are our spiritual beliefs and practices shaped by our cosmologies? How might we shape a future beyond either/or dogmas?To immerse in the work of Xenia Viray is to dissolve boundaries between worlds, to question arbitrary distinctions between disciplines, and to delight in the heart as a sacred alchemist in service of the mystery.In this conversation, Xenia and I explored the poetic capacities of the intellectual mind – drawing connections between the left and right hemispheres of the brain, individualism and collectivism, productivity and creativity. We also sprinkled in our personal stories and our respective relationships with meaning-making systems.Here's Xenia's bio:Xenia Marie Ross Viray (she/they) is an imagination healer, frequency artist, and creativity catalyst with a focus on experiential learning containers and writing.

Archaeologist David Wengrow is up-ending how we think about human history, from the origins of farming, cities, democracy and slavery to civilisation itself
It's an old-school episode as David and Tamler dive into some intriguing research on the origins of cultural differences. Two neighboring communities in communist China were assigned to be wheat farmers and rice farmers. Seventy years later, the people in the rice farming communities showed signs of being more collectivist, relational, and holistic than the people in the wheat farming communities. Plus, we have some questions about a new study on censorship and self-censorship among social psychologists.

In 1949, a college junior named Barbara Beattie wrote a letter for a school journalism assignment. We can only speculate on Beattie's youthful expectations: Was she so naive to expect a response, or were these different times? She'd written playwright Arthur Miller at a time when the Broadway run of his most famous work, The Death of a Salesman, was in full swing. He had every reason to ignore a college student's inquiries into the “formal genesis” of his now-legendary work. What Beattie received–a sprawling and deeply thoughtful essay on man's common and timeless tragedies–must have impacted her greatly. After all, she's kept it for seventy-five years. Beattie's daughter found the letter when helping her mother, now 94, move out of her home.

“A think tank, or policy institute, is a research institute that performs research and advocacy concerning topics such as social policy, political strategy, economics, military, technology, and culture. Most think tanks are non-governmental organizations, but some are semi-autonomous agencies within government, and some are associated with particular political parties, businesses or the military.[1] Think tanks are often funded by individual donations, with many also accepting government grants.[2] Think tanks publish articles and studies, and sometimes draft legislation on particular matters of policy or society. This information is then used by governments, businesses, media organizations, social movements or other interest groups.[3][4] Think tanks range from those associated with highly academic or scholarly activities to those that are overtly ideological and pushing for particular policies, with a wide range among them in terms of the quality of their research. Later generations of think tanks have tended to be more ideologically oriented.[3].” -Wikipedia.

In today's fragmented world, how do we reconcile our understanding of history with the complex issues of our time? With ideologies, conflicts, and historical events so intricately woven into the fabric of our society, it can be challenging to separate truth from misinformation and historical fact from revisionist narratives. This episode of the Biblical Anarchy Podcast delves deep into these issues, examining the layers of history that often go unspoken or misunderstood.How do we, as followers of Christ, navigate the morally gray areas of historical context, especially when looking at events such as the rise of Nazi Germany or the repercussions of Zionism? This episode takes us through a careful examination of historical events that have shaped our understanding of good and evil, shedding light on the often uncomfortable truths that aid in our pursuit of righteousness.How do we approach controversial subjects such as sexual morality and transgender issues from a biblical standpoint? How can we address growing concerns in our society without falling into the same patterns of historical atrocities? With compassion and clarity, Jacob addresses these difficult questions and aims to discern the underlying grievances that can give rise to sinister movements.Are sacrifices of personal freedom and moral integrity ever warranted in the quest to maintain societal order, or does Christ's kingship call us to a higher standard? The episode draws a compelling line between understanding and action, urging Christians not only to cognize historical events but also to become vocal advocates for godly principles in a world that so desperately needs them.Is it possible to honor the memory of the Holocaust while not also recognizing the suffering of the Palestinian people? Winograd demonstrates that remembrance and empathy are not mutually exclusive to one group or event, advocating for a Christ-like view where each individual is cherished and the collective is not vilified.Join us as we unravel the nuanced answers to these complex questions, urging our brothers and sisters in faith to awaken to the dangers of collectivism and embrace individuality through the love of Christ. Listen to this episode for an impassioned plea to view history through the lens of the Gospel and Scripture—to overcome evil with good, to judge fairly, and to stand firmly in the truth that is rooted in God's word.Tune in and let us together find the courage to stand against the tide, resist the allure of collective dogma, and remember that we serve a God who transcends history—a king who calls us to be informed, prayerful, and proactive agents of His unending love and justice.The Biblical Anarchy Podcast is part of the Christians For Liberty Network, a project of the Libertarian Christian Institute.

How many women do you know that have a fear (or an experience) of being kicked out of, ostracized from, or canceled by a community they're a part of? Whether it's part of a social justice movement or in an online spiritual community, we live in a time where people are easily disposable, and where we have little capacity for conflict, mess, or nuance. In this conversation, Maura and Qiddist talk about the energetics of what we're seeing in our in person and online communities, and pathways that move us out of the "either/or" paradigm of "sovereignty" vs the collective. We explore: the disposability of people in our movements, cancel culture, and in women's communities How misogyny isn't just about women, it's about YIN energy, -- and what "yin reverence" means Our cultural commitment to preference over truth What our intolerance for conflict has to do with misogyny The connection between how we regard mess, and how we regard the earth Why we don't want people to come to The Womb Room for belonging how the "sovereignty" movement and our collectivest culture seem different, but are often doing the same thing what sovereignty and interdependence can look like, together.

Public Health Careers podcast episode with Wanji Banda, MPH
In this enlightening episode of the Free Thought Project podcast, hosts Jason and Matt welcome the insightful Pho Lloyd, also known as "The Pholosopher." Pho is a fervent advocate for anarcho-capitalism, voluntaryism, anarchism, and libertarianism, passionately supporting the non-aggression principle (NAP). She believes in the inherent right of self-ownership and argues against the initiation of force in human interactions, positing that adherence to the NAP can lead humanity to genuine happiness, peace, and prosperity. The conversation kicks off with a thought-provoking discussion on the economics of so-called "Price Gouging," unraveling the misconceptions around government price fixing and highlighting the importance of allowing free market prices to adapt naturally to demand and supply dynamics. The podcast takes a turn with a discussion on Ben Shapiro's unexpected and somewhat hilarious foray into rap music with Tom Macdonald, leading to a broader conversation on the evolution of rap music and its shift towards themes of self-improvement in the independent hip-hop scene. The dialogue then shifts to the intriguing political landscape of Argentina, focusing on President Javier Milei, an avowed anarcho-capitalist, and the significance of his revolutionary ideas reaching a broader audience. Pho shares her insights on the perils of collectivism, which she describes as a societal cancer, emphasizing the value of individual liberty and self-ownership. The episode also delves into Pho's latest creative endeavor, a children's book titled "The Unschooled Adventures of Jack and Pho," co-authored with her husband Jack Lloyd, a friend of TFTP and previous guest on the podcast. Join us on this episode as we explore a range of topics from economics and politics to music and literature, all woven together by the common thread of liberty and personal freedom.

AG Merrick Garland detailed failures by law enforcement at the Uvalde school shooting from 2022. The border will be a huge issue in the 2024 presidential election. Rep. Dan Crenshaw wants people to put politics aside to fix immigration. // The war in Gaza continues to divide democrats. Argentina's new President brilliantly derided socialism and collectivism at the World Economic Forum. // Bryan is not looking forward to jury duty. Netanyahu used the phrase 'river to the sea' in a speech about the future of the state of Israel.
Ice storm in Portland led to a terrible tragedy involving 3 dead. Woman who drank lots of Panera lemonade on her own volition blames the company for her health problems. Bryan is looking forward to the NFL playoff games this weekend. // Issues at America's border divides democrats. A checking of the texting. // Argentina's president made a lot of sense when he rebuked socialism and collectivism at Davos.
Undisputed King of Stuff, columnist, and longtime Ricochet Editor-in-Chief Jon Gabriel is in for Jim today. He and Greg have three doozies for martinis today.First, they loudly cheer new Argentina President Javier Milei for going to the World Economic Forum in Davos and boldly championing free markets and denouncing excessive government regulation and collectivist policies. Why aren't more American conservatives able to defend freedom and condemn government intrusion so well?Next, they hammer the FBI for snooping on our purchases and searches (without warrants of course) and apparently determining that people who shop at Cabela's, read the Bible, or support Donald Trump are some sort of threat.Finally, they roll their eyes and unload on a few House Republicans for threatening to boot House Speaker Mike Johnson for agreeing to another continuing resolution on federal spending. The frustration is certainly understandable but, for multiple reasons, simple math tells us that vacating the chair won't solve anything.Please visit our great sponsors:4Patriothttps://4Patriots.com/martiniCatch the deal of the day before it is gone!

If you're open to deconstructing programmed beliefs and new ideas about the future of humanity, today's episode will propel your mind to new heights. Joining me on the mic today is Mikki Willis, an independent investigative filmmaker whose most recent production, Plandemic, is the most seen and censored documentary series of all time. After digging for survivors under the rubble of the World Trade Center in 2001, Mikki experienced an awakening that reshaped his life and profession. Since then, his productions have been used to correct divisive narratives about historic events, and as key evidence in major international court cases. In our conversation today, we delve into the pitfalls of collectivism and weaponized compassion, exploring how these concepts have played out in recent history, including during the plandemic.We also touch on the divisive political landscape, examining the impact of welfare programs and the role of fatherless homes in societal shifts, with insights from Mikki's own life and extensive investigative work. Even deeper in the exchange, we discuss how the divine intelligence of nature can usher in humanity's next level with the assistance of psychedelics and plant medicine. Through examples from our own experiences with the supernatural and indigenous communities, we provide context for how elevating our collective consciousness can set us on a purposeful path. Mikki's unique perspective, shaped by his life-changing experiences and his groundbreaking work in filmmaking, promises to offer a profound understanding of the forces shaping our world. So, buckle up for an episode that's not just about questioning the status quo but also about finding deeper meaning and purpose in the midst of a complex world that relentlessly tries to separate us from our true nature.DISCLAIMER: This podcast is presented for educational and exploratory purposes only.
