Read OnlineConfronting OppositionWhile Jesus was going through a field of grain on a sabbath, his disciples were picking the heads of grain, rubbing them in their hands, and eating them. Some Pharisees said, “Why are you doing what is unlawful on the sabbath?” Luke 6:1–2Though Jesus' public ministry was still in its early stages, confrontations with the religious leaders had already become frequent. This episode marks the fourth recorded instance of such tension. In the previous days, the Pharisees had accused Jesus of blasphemy for forgiving the paralytic before healing him, of scandal for eating with tax collectors and sinners after calling Levi, and of impiety for neglecting the traditional practice of fasting. Now, He and His disciples are accused of violating the Sabbath law by picking heads of grain, rubbing them, and eating them.Slowly, the Pharisees are emerging as hardened opponents of Jesus, increasingly focused not on the divine power and mercy He reveals, but on preserving their own rigid interpretations of the Law. These confrontations reveal both their growing hostility and Jesus' authority as the true interpreter and fulfillment of the Law.Though the Pharisees began going out of their way to confront Jesus, He was not intimidated and confronted their opposition directly. Today, as we read the Scriptures, we know well that many of the religious leaders at that time were deeply misguided in their understanding of the Law and its purpose. Such confrontations were shocking in a culture where ordinary Jews rarely challenged religious leaders. While the leaders themselves often debated among one another, it was almost unheard of for ordinary Jews to challenge them openly. For that reason, many of Jesus' disciples likely felt a sense of surprise and tension as these encounters unfolded. At the same time, they may also have experienced a sense of relief as they witnessed Jesus expose the rigidity and oppressive practices that had long left many Jews feeling burdened, discouraged, and spiritually exhausted.Though Jesus' confrontation was necessary, we too must learn from their negative example. While we no longer encounter scribes, Pharisees, Sadducees, Herodians, or elders in the same form as in first-century Israel, the underlying sins that afflicted them remain just as present in our world today.Those underlying sins could be summed up as a misuse of authority for its own sake, a tendency toward outward religious observance without inward transformation, and a preference for human traditions over divine revelation. These tendencies manifest themselves in every generation. They are found not only within the Church but also in homes, businesses, governments, and every human institution. Wherever pride overshadows humility or control stifles compassion, the spirit of the Pharisees lives on. Therefore, as disciples of Christ, we must be vigilant in our own lives—first examining our hearts for these tendencies, and then responding with the same holy courage and divine clarity that our Lord Himself displayed.Do you experience oppression from others? Are you the cause of that oppression? Misused authority, whether by individuals or institutions, wounds hearts, stifles freedom, and obscures the gentle call of grace. Before condemning such behavior in others, we must honestly examine whether we, too, have clung to positions of control or influence in ways that burden rather than bless.Reflect today on the fallen human tendency to love authority for its own sake. Do you struggle with this? Power that is exercised without humility and without charity that seeks only the good of others is dangerous and often abusive. Look for such structures in your life—whether external or internal—and prayerfully surrender them to Christ. Allow Him, the true Lord of the Sabbath, to reorder your heart according to truth, love, and mercy, so that every exercise of authority in your life becomes an act of service, modeled after His own.My all-powerful Lord, Your divine authority is absolute. You are the Source of all that is, the Sustainer of creation, and the Holder of dominion over all things. Every exercise of Your authority flows from perfect charity and infinite wisdom. Please reign in my life with that same loving authority, and help me to exercise any authority entrusted to me with humility, mercy, and the charity that flows from Your Sacred Heart.

Unions have more public support than just about anything else in the US, and yet, their membership has cratered. This poses an immense challenge to left-wing politicians, who won't be able to enact lasting change without a robust labor movement beside them. On this latest episode of Confronting Capitalism, Vivek Chibber addresses the age-old question of whether unions are inherently political, the importance (and limits) of internal democracy within unions, and why socialists have always been at the heart of the labor movement.

Tune in here to this Tuesday edition of the Brett Winterble Show! Brett kicks off the program by discussing why the United States should act decisively in confronting Iran. He praises Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent’s stated strategy of targeting the Iranian regime’s financial assets, the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, its nuclear capabilities and terrorist networks. Brett views Bessent as a particularly effective and clear communicator and says he should be considered for a major role in the 2028 presidential administration. We’re joined by Beth Troutman of “Good Morning BT” for the latest episode of “Crossing The Streams.” Brett and Beth discuss whether the country is likely to experience political turmoil, particularly amid efforts to change voting systems. Beth frames political developments in America as a series of “pendulum swings,” noting the political shift that contributed to the rise of the tea party.

Twenty-five years after September 11th, is America ready for the next generation of threats? House Intelligence Committee Chairman Rick Crawford joins Newt to discuss the bipartisan task force review of the original 9/11 commission report — what worked, what didn't, and what must be built for the dangers ahead. Crawford warns that the post-9/11 intelligence architecture, designed for counterterrorism, is now facing a threat environment that has expanded far beyond it: AI-guided drone swarms, gray zone warfare, cyberattacks on water treatment facilities, Chinese infiltration of agricultural research institutions, and adversaries who organize not around our bureaucracy but around our vulnerabilities. A former Army bomb disposal technician, Crawford brings a "left of boom" mindset to the conversation — and a stark warning: America cannot afford another failure of imagination.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Labeled Security Summer Camp by some, the Black Hat and DEF CON security conferences have been the premier events for security researchers and practitioners. Analysts Dan Kennedy and Justin Lam returned from the heat of Las Vegas to discuss their take on what went down in the desert with host Eric Hanselman. More than 23,000 attendees were reported to be part of the sprawling Black Hat start to the week and DEF CON has grown to be its equal in size. There was more discussion about the realities of what AI can do for and against security operations. The implications around Mythos have raised fears of a cascade of vulnerability disclosures that will overwhelm our ability to remediate them, but a growing risk comes from AI tooling being able to create more complex environments and processes to make complex vulnerabilities more easily exploitable. On the security defense side, AI's ability to interpret complex interactions and relationships is showing potential to reduce the risk of rolling out new controls by understanding what policies could break. It's an area where there have historically been delays in improving protections where concerns that new controls might break existing applications or access held security teams back. One of the greatest benefits of the conferences, though, may be the ability of security professionals to gather together and have the informal interactions that are needed to support each other in the complex world that information security has become.

Our Vision as a church is to echo the prophet Habakuk and "see the fame and deeds of God renewed and known in our time." To this end, our mission is to see lost New Yorkers, far from God, be transformed into compelling missional disciples. We believe this happens in three shifts: we want to see people go from Gospel resistance to experiencing the tangible presence of God, from a selfish orientation to pursuing counter formation in the way of Jesus, and from worldly ambition to living on sacrificial mission with the Holy Spirit. Rather than holding an emphasis in one of these areas, we believe that it is the intersection of these three things that creates a compelling disciple of Jesus.

Arabic culture and literature hold a vastly rich classical history that continues to captivate scholars and readers worldwide. Renowned literary critic and Columbia University professor, Dr. Muhsin Al-Musawi, explores the depths of this heritage, from the global allure of the Arabian Nights to the historical dynamic of Baghdad's intellectual hubs. The discussion delves into how translation served as a window between cultures, the contested notion of an age of decay, and the brilliant prose of modern artists like Jabra Ibrahim Jabra. Reflecting on his own career of writing out of love and devotion rather than mere scholarship, Dr. Al-Musawi critiques how literary prizes can drive trendy imitation instead of a genuinely creative mind. 00:00 Introduction 01:57 The Roots of Passionate Scholarship 05:19 Baghdad's Layered Intellectual Landscapes 09:51 Cultural Solace & the Ambition of Translation 12:26 Confronting the Global Legacy of the Arabian Nights 14:55 Literary Taste & the Metamorphosis of Translation 19:40 The Romantic Search for Spaces Without Borders 26:27 The Vastness of Classical Traditions & the True Renaissance 28:53 Intellectual Intersections & the Republic of Letters 33:15 Challenging the Conventional Notion of an Age of Decay 39:45 Jabra Ibrahim Jabra & the Topography of an Artist 44:58 Curating a Diverse Core Arabic Fiction Curriculum 49:33 Trendy Prizes & the Necessity of the Creative Mind Muhsin Jassim al-Musawi is Professor of Classical and Modern Arabic Literature, Comparative and Cultural Studies at Columbia University.

He has been editor of the Journal of Arabic Literature since 2000.

Allyne Betancourt, a member of the Dr. Joe Dispenza healing community, joins Dr. Tara Perry to share one of the most extraordinary healing stories on the show to date: how she was diagnosed with advanced colorectal cancer, cured it holistically before ever undergoing surgery, and then — after surgeons removed most of her rectum anyway — used meditation and visualization to regenerate the organ back to nearly full size. Allyne walks through her refusal to "own" her cancer, the alternative protocols she combined with traditional treatment, the devastating aftermath of a surgery she now believes was unnecessary, and the dark night of the soul that led her to Dr. Joe Dispenza's work. The conversation closes with the medical documentation of her regeneration, the forgiveness work that made healing possible, and her hard-won belief that anyone — not just the exceptional — has this same capacity for the impossible.KEY TAKEAWAYS(00:02:38) Diagnosed with advanced T3 colorectal cancer and told surgery and a permanent colostomy bag were her only option — and her calm, immediate decision to refuse(00:05:37) "This is not my cancer" — why Allyne refused to own her diagnosis from day one, and how that mindset carried through seven months of treatment(00:10:01) Combining traditional treatment with alternative approaches: organic-only foods, raising her own grass-fed beef, and daily Buddhist chanting for hours at a time(00:11:54) Fasting five days before each chemo treatment — and the unusually severe reactions her oncologists had never seen before(00:19:27) The pressure to have surgery despite inconclusive scans, and her repeated request that doctors simply look before cutting(00:28:06) Waking up from surgery and instantly knowing she'd made a mistake — while the surgeon celebrated how well the procedure had gone(00:30:13) The physical toll of losing 8-10 centimeters of colon and most of her rectum: nonstop urgency, incontinence, and a dehumanizing new reality(00:36:04) Getting the lab results back — no cancer found anywhere in the tissue that was removed(00:37:15) Five months of worsening depression and a devastating conversation with her husband about not wanting to live like this anymore(00:39:50) The turning point: "I'm either going to live like this, or I have to grow another rectum"(00:46:04) Starting Dr. Joe Dispenza's meditation practice while running to the bathroom every 45-50 minutes, and the first sign of change after two months(00:52:16) Confronting the surgeon who performed the operation — and learning she had no idea Allyne never had cancer to begin with(00:59:50) The visualization practice Allyne used to dissolve scar tissue and "stretch" her remaining rectal tissue back toward full size(01:10:18) The colonoscopy that documented her rectum had grown from 3 centimeters to 10 centimeters, with no trace of scar tissue(01:15:46) Her message on breaking "the habit of being yourself" and why she believes healing the impossible isn't reserved for exceptional people(01:18:09) How Allyne has learned to meet life's setbacks with curiosity and trust instead of fear — even in the face of her husband's deathIf you're ready to take your healing to the next level, schedule your free consultation with Dr. Tara at: https://ConsultTara.com/book

They followed the digital trail, built a blueprint of the network, and traveled to Nigeria to find the people behind it.There, they interviewed scammers, worked with local partners and law enforcement, explored the role of juju rituals in some scam operations, and ultimately confronted the suspected scammer they had tracked.“We came here to find you. We're two investigators.”What they discovered raises bigger questions about how we fight scams. Detection and prevention matter , but what about deterrence and consequences? When the scammers themselves were asked what could stop more people from committing these crimes, their answer was striking: more arrests.In this episode Inside a real-world financial sextortion investigation Following the trail from social media to Nigeria Building a blueprint of the criminal network What scammers revealed about how they operate The role of juju rituals in some scam operations Confronting the suspected scammer Why deterrence and enforcement matter What law enforcement and industry need to do differentlyAbout the guestsErin West is the founder of Operation Shamrock and a former Deputy District Attorney who spent 26 years prosecuting crime, including eight years investigating high-tech and cryptocurrency-enabled crime. https://www.linkedin.com/in/erinnordbywest/Paul Raffile is a cybercrime researcher specializing in transnational organized crime and financial sextortion, with a background in government intelligence, corporate intelligence and digital investigations. https://www.linkedin.com/in/raffile/About the hostAyelet Biger-Levin is the Founder and CEO of RangersAI, the company behind ScamRanger.

Father Koys takes us on another “brain wrinkling” walk as he discusses the importance of educating young Catholics on the numerous heresies of the Church and how to confront them in our modern day. Father Koys dives in particular to the Heresy of Modernism and the challenge of explaining the negative part of Modernism to today's youth. He explains Modernism as matter of Novelty vs Tradition, novelty comes and goes but tradition is timeless, both new and old. Father Koys further goes into the aspect of Agnosticism in the Modernist heresy, on the notion that religion is not found outside us but comes from within and that the Church understands man's reason is flawed and subject to a higher intellect than himself.

In this episode of The Leader's Notebook, I invite you to approach the Book of Revelation not as a complicated timeline to be decoded, but as a powerful revelation of Jesus Christ. Written by the Apostle John during his exile on Patmos, Revelation is both a letter to the Church and a sweeping spiritual vision filled with images, sounds, symbols, and promises. Rather than reading it like a Western textbook, we should experience it more like a great Hebrew opera—allowing its message to reveal the glory, authority, and ultimate victory of Christ. We will examine Jesus' letters to the seven churches and the message He gives to every generation: He knows the truth about His Church, He calls His people to overcome, and He promises eternal life and fellowship to those who hear His voice. Revelation was never intended to frighten believers with beasts, tribulation, or the spirit of Antichrist. It was written to assure us that evil is temporary, Christ is victorious, and the outcome has already been decided. No matter what happens in history, Jesus remains present among His people. The question is not whether difficulties will come, but whether we will listen to His voice, remain faithful, and live as overcomers. - Dr. Mark Rutland Chapters (00:00:03) - The Leaders Notebook(00:00:36) - The epistles of the Book of Revelation(00:02:02) - The Revelation of Jesus(00:06:04) - An Unorthodox View of the Book of Revelation(00:07:34) - The challenge of reading the Book of Revelation(00:12:02) - The Book of Revelation: A Hebrew Opera(00:18:46) - Revelation is Full of Symbols(00:25:06) - Revelation 2: Confronting the Book of Revelation(00:26:40) - Book of Revelation(00:29:46) - The Letter to the Church of the Seven(00:36:33) - Book of Revelation(00:38:51) - The First Place Where Jesus Appears is in the Church

Death and the afterlife are foreign, and often terrifying, subjects. Naturally, most of us tend to try to avoid thinking about it too much. This is exactly what allows the evil inclination to deceive and mislead us. It's an important subject to the well-upon, though too much morbid fascination can be counterproductive. In part 2 […]
In 1997, Miss USA won Miss Universe with one perfectly judged answer. She revealed just enough to charm, but not enough to shock. Harvard professor Leslie John says that's scientifically proven to persuade. Her research shows revealers are more likeable, more hireable, and even more dateable. In this episode, she shares why oversharing beats staying guarded, why privacy promises make us shy, and how putting fears into words can cure phobias. --- Become an FSB member: https://get.fsb.org.uk/nudge/ Unlock the Nudge Vaults: https://www.nudgepodcast.com/vaults Leslie's book Revealing: https://amzn.to/3RkFTAq Leslie's website: https://www.proflesliejohn.com/ Join 12,199 readers of the Nudge Newsletter: https://www.nudgepodcast.com/mailing-list Connect on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/phill-agnew/ --- Today's sources: Huang, K., Yeomans, M., Brooks, A.

A leading historian's revelatory exploration of antisemitism in the United States—from 1940s anti-Jewish riots until today—showing that it has long served as a frontline in our wars over freedom of speech and the nature of American liberalism Few issues are as vexed today as antisemitism and free speech. There is scarcely an arena—college campuses, congressional hearings, immigration courtrooms, social media platforms—where we are not polarized over what counts as antisemitism, which speech is protected by the First Amendment, and what the law should do about hatred. At a time of political crisis, antisemitism has become a point of ideological obsession. None of this is new. In a sweeping history of ideas and law, James Loeffler recovers the forgotten roots of our contemporary turmoil. From two antisemitic riots in postwar Chicago to a neo-Nazi march in 1970s Skokie, Illinois, and the Charlottesville Unite the Right rally in our own time, Loeffler explores the ways in which America's courts have grappled with hatred, freedom, and the tensions at the heart of liberal democracy: Are some hatreds more dangerous than others? Is tolerating hate speech the price we must pay for free speech? And can liberalism ever make good on its promise to end hatred through law? Confronting these questions, Exceptional Hatred: Antisemitism and the Fight over Free Speech in Modern America (Metropolitan Books, 2026) restores a missing history of hate speech, antisemitism, and the law, one that points to how we might protect difference without surrendering our principles of equality and freedom. James Loeffler is an award-winning historian, and Felix Posen Professor of Modern Jewish History at Johns Hopkins University and the author of Rooted Cosmopolitans: Jews and Human Rights in the Twentieth Century. Previously he taught at the University of Virginia and served as Dean's Visiting Scholar at Georgetown University Law Center. Currently a Kogod Senior Research Fellow at the Shalom Hartman Institute of North America, his writing has appeared in The Atlantic, The New York Times, The Washington Post, The Wall Street Journal, and The New Republic.

Most people know October 7th from news reports. But on the ground - at the Nova Music Festival, in kibbutzim, in bomb shelters 15 seconds from danger - the reality is far more personal and complicated. We walked these sites with Mati, a kibbutz agricultural worker who has lived here since 1978 and witnessed October 7th from inside his home. Mati shares what it was like to be in the toilet when the alarm sounded, to receive a call that terrorists were shooting at Palestinian workers in his fields, to slowly understand - through Facebook posts and calls to friends - that something unprecedented was happening. But beneath the immediate violence lies a deeper wound: an intelligence notebook found at Kibbutz Mefarsim revealing that Hamas had meticulously mapped every detail - where the doctor lived, the security chief's phone number, which gates had which locks, where the generators were. That intelligence came from a trusted Palestinian worker who had lived on the kibbutz for 30 years. A man Mati knew well. A man Mati can no longer speak to. The episode explores the layers of this betrayal and asks the question that haunts many: how do you rebuild trust after this?Key Takeaways:October 7th wasn't just a military attack; it was an intelligence operation built on detailed knowledge of kibbutz layouts, security, and daily patternsThat knowledge came from people trusted for decades - Palestinian workers embedded in communities, given humanitarian aid, treated as friendsThe Nova Music Festival massacre killed 260+ people in one location; survivors describe running in circles, not knowing where to escapeLife on the border is lived in 15-second intervals - the time between a rocket siren and needing to reach a bomb shelterNormalcy persists even amid constant danger; people exercise, children play, life goes on until the sirens soundMatan Abrigal, a Golani Brigade soldier, threw himself on a grenade to save his friends, sacrificing himselfThe wound of October 7th isn't just death; it's the violation of trust by people who were treated as part of the communityEvil and good exist simultaneously; people struggle to comprehend how the same individuals they helped could betray them so completelyChapter Markers: 00:00—Intro & context; 02:23—Golani Brigade's fight at kibbutz; 06:00—Matan Abrigal and the grenade; 09:00—Normalcy amid danger (sirens, life continuing); 14:00—The Nova Music Festival site; 26:00—The bomb shelter and Hirsch Goldberg Polen; 32:00—Mati's story begins; 40:00—October 7th from inside: the phone call; 52:00—Understanding the scope; 60:00—The intelligence notebook and betrayal; 70:00—Confronting the question of trustYou cannot understand October 7th from a distance.

The US has deployed a fresh aircraft carrier to the Middle East, vowing an "indefinite" naval blockade of Iran until the Strait of Hormuz is reopened - but China has other ideas. On today's episode of Iran: The Latest, Sophia Yan speaks with Alicia Kearns MP, shadow minister for national security and former chair of the Foreign Affairs Select Committee. Fresh from a trip into the heart of the Pentagon, she explains how Iran's regime is withstanding the pressure of the war thanks to financial and technological assistance from Beijing. Plus, the “active and pernicious” Iranian intelligence service you've never heard of, why Donald Trump is guilty of historical revisionism when it comes to Nato, and whether the US is ready for the growing risk of a three-theatre conflict involving China and Taiwan.HIGHLIGHTSUS deploys fresh warship and vows indefinite Iran blockade How China is helping Iran win the war against the USCHAPTERS00:00 US vows indefinite blockade in Strait of Hormuz01:55 GOP disquiet inside Pentagon over Trump's Iran strategy03:00 Confronting the Pentagon on Trump's NATO revisionism05:32 The Three-Theater War: Russia, Strait of Hormuz, and Taiwan08:36 China becomes Iran's 'ventilator' against US sanctions11:00 Xi Jinping's naval show of force in Taiwan Strait17:50 MOIS: The lethal Iranian intel agency operating in the UK21:17 How Britain must dismantle Iranian hitmen & propaganda29:40 Iranian assassination threats against Trump37:38 Russian shadow fleet tanker explosion off OmanCONTRIBUTORS:Sophia Yan, co-host and senior foreign correspondent @sophia_yanAlicia Kearns, MP and shadow minister for national security @aliciakearnsWATCH US ON YOUTUBE: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLJnf_DDTfIVAif-vifC6F2aoPB8GIw6dkCONTENT REFERENCED:Alicia Kearns: Labour must shut down Iranian assets operating in Britainhttps://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2026/08/01/labour-must-shut-down-iranian-assets-operating-in-britain/US navy sailor jumps overboard after 250 days at seahttps://www.telegraph.co.uk/world-news/2026/08/13/us-navy-sailors-jump-overboard-after-nine-months-at-sea/Winner Best News and Analysis Podcast - Publisher Podcast Awards 2026Nominated Podcast of the Year - Society of Editors News Podcasts Awards 2026Nominated Best News, Politics and Current Affairs - British Podcast Awards 2026The Telegraph, Winner Podcast Publisher of the Year 2026 - Publisher Podcast Awards 2026Producer: Max BowerVideo Producer: Peter ShevlinResearcher and Social Producer: Anna HindmarshStudio Operator: Andy WatsonExecutive Producer: Venetia Rainey ► Sign up to our most popular newsletter, From the Editor.

Coming to you from Whidbey Island, Washington this is Stories From Women Who Walk with Story Prompt Friday and your host, Diane Wyzga. What Women Still Fight For. We women have to fight for so much: being seen, heard, understood, listened to, recognized, and acknowledged. Despite progress, we are still taking a stand to transform women's rights, to overcome barriers to the freedom of voice, opinions, and expression. Little Human to Big Human. Maybe like me you wonder if there was a thru-line of advocacy between who you were as a Little Human Girl and who you are today as a Big Human Woman. What if the courage to speak up, to speak out, to say what you mean and mean what you say was always there? What It Takes. Maybe it's a matter of time, confronting your story, upending your upbringing, and challenging yourself to be a testament to truth. Or a situation that demands a response. Women whose pioneering work laid a foundation for future feminist thought, greater autonomy and independence shared a commitment: I may be one among many but I can draw many to me like fillings to a magnet and together we will do the work that's calling to be done. Click HERE for 36 examples of women who took a stand Devil Within. I was a strong-willed handful as a child. Today we might say I was spirited; but back then I was told “A dimple in the chin means a devil within.” I still have a dimple in my chin. That never left me. What I had to unlearn was a voice that society, religion, patriarchy, and education quieted down. Who am I? The courage to be one's self begins with digging down into the soil of that self. Who am I? What treasure trove of skills, experiences, wisdom, and more can I uncover? And when I uncover the story of myself how do I bestow permission on me to be that self? For a long overdue lesson in courage I turned to Virginia Woolf who knows well the “supreme difficulty of being oneself.” "Let us simmer over our incalculable cauldron, our enthralling confusion, our hotch-potch of impulses, our perpetual miracle — for the soul throws up wonders every second. Movement and change are the essence of our being; rigidity is death; conformity is death: let us say what comes into our heads, repeat ourselves, contradict ourselves, fling out the wildest nonsense, and follow the most fantastic fancies without caring what the world does or thinks or says. For nothing matters except life.” ~ Virginia Woolf Story Prompt: Turn back the pages of time, find that chapter when you were bright and shining, alive and curious, energetic, perceptive, or outspoken. Who is the Little Human Girl that used to be you? Where is she now? Write that story and share it out loud! Thank you for listening. I'm glad to have you here.

Professional wrestler Steph De Lander joins Steph for a two-Steph summit of broken bodies and public rage. SDL walks through the full saga of her neck: hearing the crunch-crunch-crunch on a northern lights suplex at the WWE training center, years of injections straight into the disc, the rupture on a jumping pull-up the day before a five-day Australian tour, crying through the flight, and the two surgeries that left her with a piece of her own hip bone and brand-new microplastic tech fused into her spine, which healed so fast her surgeon called his colleagues to look at the scans. From there they get into faking 100 logged driving hours to get a license, why announcing "a women's match" just cues up the creeps, Steph's midnight Facebook fight with a fan who refuses to watch her clips, the Austin TSA agent who stuck a hand in her face, waiting five and a half hours to confront the middle-seat texter who called her insane, and Steph inhaling a solid portion of her dead dog Susan's ashes while transferring the urn. Plus: $12 Erewhon oats, the Scotch tape facelift, bullying fans into buying merch, breast reduction recovery horror, and a plan to get Steph Tolev into a WWE ring.

Michael is joined by Richard Nephew, Senior Research Scholar at Columbia University's Center on Global Energy Policy and former NSC Director for Iran, to discuss the uncertain and deteriorating situation in the Persian Gulf. Richard analyzes Tehran's recent escalation of demands—from demanding the full removal of the U.S. blockade and sanctions to seeking $300 billion in reparations. He also explores the internal consolidation of power within Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) following recent decapitation strikes, detailing how a narrower, unipolar hardline faction now views aggressive deterrence as the clear path forward. Richard also breaks down global energy friction points, including severe price spreads in refined products like diesel, the limitations of covert commercial ship escorting, and the dangerous race between global economic endurance and the U.S. blockade.
Suffering, grief and death are inescapable components of human experience. Confronting such hardship, says poet Vincent Casaregola, can be a way to embrace life and find meaning.

On 9/11, Islamists attacked the United States killing 2,977. Also, there's October 7, 2023, when Islamists struck Israel killing approximately 1,200. In spite of these kind of attacks, the violence of Islam is being muted in news outlets across America. However, some prominent individuals have been paying attention. The result is that Islamic influence and the growing network of the Muslim Brotherhood was at the center of a hearing held last week by Senator Ted Cruz, Chairman of the Senate Judiciary Subcommittee on Federal Courts, Oversight, Agency Action, and Federal Rights. This hearing was titled, Hidden in Plain Sight: Confronting the Muslim Brotherhood Network in America. It was designed to examine the Muslim Brotherhood's efforts to seize influence inside American nonprofits, political organizations, universities, courts, taxpayer-funded programs, and other American institutions. Witnesses described the network as linking to additional organizations, including the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR). Due to the significance of the hearing and the rapid advancement of Islam across the country, including into politics, Crosstalk believes it's important for the American public to hear this testimony. After an important opening from Senator Ted Cruz, you'll hear testimony from several individuals. This Crosstalk is a must.

But while capitalism may have created the conditions for democracy, it's actually the main obstacle to securing full democratic rights.
