This episode began as an investigation into Sigmund Freud, Edward Bernays, propaganda, psychoanalysis, and the hidden machinery through which modern perception management came to be. But somewhere along the way, it became something much more personal. In Starlight Sickness, Kelly traces the strange lineage between Freud's abandonment of the seduction theory, Bernays's engineering of consent, and the ways power moves harm out of view by relocating it into the minds of the harmed. From the origins of modern public relations to the hall of mirrors inside ufology, this episode asks what happens when the tools we use to interpret reality also become the tools used to obscure it. How do we practice discernment without losing trust in our own perception? How do we make room for complexity without allowing complexity to become fog? And what does accountability look like when the story you were living inside begins to collapse? In light of recent allegations against her former best friend and creative partner Jay Christopher King, Kelly turns the same questions back on herself, beginning the process of untangling what happened, what she believed, what she may have gotten wrong, and what this community is owed now. This is an episode about gaslighting, trauma, consent engineering, ufology, and the terrifying difficulty of finding solid ground in a world built to manage perception.

Since 1992, Charlie has led some of Black Rock City's monumental works of art. He isn't just the prolific mind behind iconic pieces like Elder Mother, an illuminated storytelling tree; he's an architect of human connection. Over the decades, he co-created Illumination Village - an early and long running home-within-a-home at Black Rock City The Flaming Lotus Girls - the all-volunteer, women-led art collective The Box Shop - a collaborative workspace and art studio of 23 years and counting Tune in as Charlie shares his artistic journey with Andie Grace. They explore the evolution from flame-thrown wind-sail paintings to steel trees of addressable LED leaves. But this isn't about him. The Box Shop, home to hundreds of metalworkers, fabricators, large-scale sculptors, and multimedia artists, has birthed thousands of artworks and taught countless volunteers to wire and weld. After 23 years, it's facing displacement due to gentrification. Charlie shares the gritty details of reinventing this creative sanctuary into a nonprofit in a new location. Hear why making beautiful things with friends matters more than maximizing shareholder profit, and why hands-on community hubs bring belonging as an antidote to modern loneliness and greed. https://www.charlesgadeken.com https://boxshopsf.org https://www.flaminglotus.com https://www.illuminationvillage.org LIVE.BURNINGMAN.ORG
Alycia Anderson welcomes back Nashville photographer, disability advocate, and Let Them Stare creator Angelea Yoder to discuss her advocacy, her VACTERL Association diagnosis, and the liberation of moving from hiding invisible medical differences to sharing them publicly, including a Good Morning America segment that shifted her fears into feelings of acceptance. Angelea explains VACTERL and how it has impacted her life through multiple anomalies and more than 20 surgeries, and Alycia shares they have the same VACTERL-related experiences. They focus on Angelea's first Let Them Stare phase, the photography-based children's book Look at Me: Look What I Can Do, now on Kickstarter to raise $40,000 for self-publishing and printing, with tiers for preorders and donating books to schools and hospitals. They also discuss consent and privacy for disabled kids on social media, and Angelea previews future plans including an adult coffee-table book, a disability-focused modeling agency, and a community hub. The episode's mantra is simple and powerful: “Let them stare.” The Big Ideas Behind the Brave Moments
In this episode of *Pediatric Perspectives*, I'm joined by Michelle Perro, M.D. — integrative pediatrician, environmental medicine specialist, and CEO and founder of [GMO Science](https://gmoscience.org) — for a detailed look at how genetically modified organisms have reshaped the American food supply and what families can do to protect themselves. Dr. Perro began researching the intersection of GMOs, pesticides, and children's health in the early 2000s, and this conversation reflects more than two decades of that clinical work.
Join us LIVE AT FIVE (PT) on YouTube for the watch party every Wednesday: https://www.youtube.com/@birdsandbeesdontfck Joy Mamey is an actor, writer, comedian, cancer survivor, and improviser currently performing with Sunday Company at The Groundlings who grew up in Los Angeles where her sex ed teacher wouldn't answer her questions so she thought sex was basically naked kissing and that penises had bones. In this episode we talk about the surprising overlap between improv and intimacy, why "yes and" can become a people-pleasing trap, and what happens when we're taught to ignore our instincts to make other people comfortable. Joy shares the sex education she never got, the question her sex ed teacher refused to answer, and why she genuinely thought penises had bones. We also get into body autonomy, consent, patriarchy, impact versus intention, learning to say no, and the importance of listening when your body is trying to tell you something.

In this episode of Why Care?, Nadia Nagamootoo is joined by writer, broadcaster and campaigner Jamie Klingler for a conversation about accidental activism, women's safety, police reform and the institutional failures that still leave women carrying the burden of risk. Jamie reflects on the moment Sarah Everard's murder pushed her from behind-the-scenes media work into national campaigning, how Reclaim These Streets was formed at breakneck speed, and why the vigil and High Court fight became a turning point in the public conversation on violence against women and girls.From there, the conversation widens into what has changed, what has not, and what leaders still fail to understand. Jamie speaks candidly about consent, male entitlement, the emotional toll of becoming a public voice on women's safety, and why organisations cannot keep treating violence, harassment and misogyny as if they sit outside the workplace. The result is a powerful episode about courage, accountability and what it really takes to change culture rather than simply comment on it.Key TakeawaysThe public conversation on violence against women has moved, but institutions still lag behind.Consent education needs to go far beyond teaching girls how to say no.Men who want to help often need practical, behaviour-based guidance rather than abstract reassurance that they are “one of the good ones”.Organisations already know where the risks are. The issue is usually not awareness but whether leaders are willing to act early and decisively. Guest BioJamie Klingler became an activist and campaigner for women's safety and police reform as one of the founders of Reclaim These Streets, an organisation that was created after Sarah Everard, was abducted, raped and murdered by a serving police officer. The organisation tried to hold a vigil for Sarah, but the Metropolitan Police said they weren't allowed. In doing so and trying to silence them; Reclaim These Streets fought them in the High Court for violating their human right to assemble, and won. Jamie speaks on becoming an accidental activist and using her media and events expertise to create a real impact.

Episode 2 of "Heated Rivalry" gave us more heat, more emotional complexity, and — honestly — more to dissect than we could cover alone. So this time, I'm joined by three of my favorite urologist colleagues: Dr. Rubin, Dr. Winter, and Dr. Gonzalez. Four urologists, one hockey romance, zero filter. This is the kind of conversation that doesn't happen in medical school, at grand rounds, or really anywhere in organized medicine. Which is exactly why we're having it here. In this episode, we cover:

In Part 2 of this bold and unfiltered conversation, Eve welcomes back Cidney Green for a deep dive into kink exploration, fetish psychology, ethical non-monogamy, BDSM, fantasy versus reality, communication, consent, and sexuality. Cidney Green, creator of the viral “Pussy Over Pain” movement and author of All 3 In Me, shares raw insights on phone sex, fetish stigma, healing through BDSM, open relationships, jealousy, threesomes, and the role of honest communication in creating healthy, fulfilling intimate relationships. One of the most powerful moments in this episode is a role-play in which Eve and Cidney demonstrate how a couple might navigate a conversation about ethical non-monogamy and the possibility of inviting a third person into their relationship or bedroom. Through this realistic example, they model healthy communication, curiosity, boundary-setting, consent, emotional safety, and how to discuss fantasies without judgment. Rather than promoting any particular relationship structure, the conversation highlights that consensual non-monogamy, open relationships, and threesomes can be approached ethically when all parties communicate openly and enthusiastically consent. In this episode, you'll learn about: • BDSM and fetish exploration• Fetish psychology and kink stigma• Ethical non-monogamy, open relationships, and polyamory• How to talk to your partner about a threesome• Introducing a third partner into a relationship• Relationship communication and emotional safety• Consent, boundaries, and negotiation skills• Sexual empowerment and pleasure• Women's pleasure and orgasm equality• Fantasy versus reality in sexuality• Healing, growth, and self-discovery through intimacy If you're interested in sex education, ethical non-monogamy, polyamory, threesomes, kink, BDSM, relationship communication, sexual wellness, consent, body positivity, and authentic conversations about pleasure, this episode is for you.

In this Kundalini Sunday Zoom session, Chrism opens the floor for participants to discuss their current Kundalini symptoms, questions, and energetic challenges following the previous Shaktipat and Zoom sessions.The episode begins with questions about intense lower-back pain, first- and second-chakra expansion, spinal “teething,” internal heat and cold, grounding, Gyan Mudra, meditation, sacred feminine coldness, and sacred masculine heat. Several participants receive live guidance around overwhelming energy, nervous-system overload, marijuana use, entity exposure, energetic attachments, back pain, food restriction, and rapid physical changes.A major theme of the episode is spiritual boundary-setting. Zorka describes being guided to say “I revoke consent,” and Chrism explains this as Kundalini teaching her not to give permission to entities or fear-based influences.

In this episode of Wild & Waking, I'm joined by Nadine Donselaar, Human Rights lawyer, Reiki and Kriya Yoga teacher, women's mentor, and author of Your Journey to Consent: A Practical Guide to Understand, Prevent, and Heal from Sexual Violence. This conversation moves through the tender, layered intersections of consent, sexual violence, gender-based violence, holistic healing, human rights, privilege, and the everyday practice of being fully alive. Nadine brings such a unique lens to this work, blending her background in law and human rights with embodied healing practices like Reiki, womb work, meditation, ritual, and energy healing.Together, we explore what it means to heal without turning healing into another endless self-improvement project. Nadine shares how her own experience with sexual violence, EMDR therapy, energy work, and writing her book shaped the way she supports women in reconnecting with their bodies, desires, boundaries, and inner truth. We talk about the difference between trying to become “better” and learning how to become more fully yourself — not as a new spiritual persona, but as a grounded, living, breathing human being in your real, everyday life.At its heart, this episode is a conversation about choosing life after survival. It's about laughing louder, dancing more freely, asking harder questions, healing in relationship, and remembering that personal liberation and collective care are deeply connected. If you've ever wondered how energy work, embodied healing, human rights, consent, and everyday aliveness all belong in the same conversation, this episode is for you.In this episode, we explore:How Nadine's personal experience with sexual violence shaped her path into healing, human rights law, Reiki, Kriya Yoga, womb work, and women's mentorshipThe difference between healing as a path back to yourself and healing as another endless self-improvement projectWhy “becoming more of yourself” is often less about understanding everything and more about feeling, expressing, and livingHow trauma can live in the body, even after the mind has made sense of what happenedThe role of Reiki, energy healing, womb practices, meditation, ritual, and Kriya Yoga in reconnecting with the bodyWhat it means to choose aliveness, joy, desire, and beauty after seasons of survivalThe intersection of personal healing and collective responsibilityThe importance of knowing your values, standards, boundaries, and responsibilities as a practitioner or leaderHow colonialism, exploitation, lineage, and privilege show up in spiritual and wellness spacesHow consent begins with understanding your own yes, no, and maybeThe complexity of accountability, enablement, harm, repair, and community dynamics after sexual violenceThe power of women gathering, sharing stories, dancing, listening, and being witnessedHow to begin again after a hard season with softness, honesty, support, and joyBe sure to hit subscribe so you never miss the latest episode!Connect with Nadine:Learn more about Nadine's work: nadinedonselaar.comBuy Nadine's book, Your Journey to Consent: A Practical Guide to Understand, Prevent, and Heal from Sexual Violence: AmazonWork with Nadine: Explore her 1:1 offeringsConnect with Nadine on Instagram: @nadine.donselaarFollow Your Journey to Consent on Instagram: @your.journey.to.consentRead Nadine's writing on Substack: A Blessing in DisguiseConnect with Emily:Website: www.EmilyReuschel.comInstagram: @emilyreuschelFacebook: Emily ReuschelLinkedIn: Emily ReuschelJoin my Book Insiders List: Sign up here!Resources and Links:Sign up here to get the inside scoop to my book writing journey!Book me as a speaker for your next event - email inquiries to emilyreuschel@gmail.com or schedule a call hereWild & Waking – Produced by Jill Carr Podcasting | Learn More

Rattling the Bars host Mansa Musa, former political prisoner and Black Panther, speaks with Alberto Toscano, professor of critical theory and author of Late Fascism, about how consent and coercion operate within US civil society and abroad today. In Part 2 of their two-part conversation, Musa and Toscano unpack the history and relevance of Antonio Gramsci, the Italian Marxist theorist imprisoned by fascist dictator Benito Mussolini in 1926, and they discuss how Donald Trump's domestic and foreign platforms in 2026 animate white nationalism—relying on the explicit promise of state violence against targeted populations. Guests:Alberto Toscano is a renowned Italian cultural critic, social theorist, philosopher, translator, and adjunct professor at the Simon Fraser University School of Communication. Toscano is a columnist at In These Times and the (co-)author of numerous books, including: Late Fascism: Race, Capitalism and the Politics of Crisis; and Fanaticism: On the Uses of an Idea.Credits:Producer / Videographer / Editor: Cameron GranadinoBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/rattling-the-bars--4799829/support.Follow Rattling the Bars on Spotify or Apple Podcasts Sign up for our newsletterFollow us on:Bluesky: @therealnews.comFacebook: The Real News NetworkTwitter: @TheRealNewsYouTube: @therealnewsInstagram: @therealnewsnetworkHelp us continue producing Rattling the Bars by following us and becoming a monthly sustainer
Consent education in school is mostly insufficient or non-existent — even when it's required by state law. An organization called SafeBAE is trying to change that by training teens to teach each other about consent. SafeBAE's executive director Shael Norris talks about what works and what doesn't when discussing this topic with young people. We'll also hear a cautionary tale about a time when Shael's own daughter attempted to get justice for sexual assault survivors back when she was in high school. ⭐️ This episode originally ran on February 5, 2025 and is a favorite from the archives. We hope you enjoy, and we'll be back next week with an exciting update on what SafeBAE is up to now… stay tuned! … Episode resources • Check out SafeBAE.org for info on consent ed for teens … • Join LST+ for community and access to You Know What, another show in the Longest Shortest universe! • Follow us on Instagram • Sign up for our newsletter, where we recommend other parenting + reproductive health media • Buy books by LST guests (your purchase supports the show!) • Website: longestshortesttime.com Learn more about your ad choices.

Can a Brokerage Use a Client List for Marketing? Consent Rules Explained Enroll in courses here: https://www.albertarealestateschool.com/shop/ or call our Success Team at : 587-936-7779 Can a brokerage use its client list for marketing without getting additional consent? It depends on what the marketing is for. In real estate, client relationships are typically between the brokerage and the client, with the real estate professional acting on behalf of the brokerage. Because of that, a brokerage may send communications connected to its real estate business, such as: ✔️ Holiday greetings ✔️ Thank-you cards ✔️ Brokerage or real estate related communications However, using that same client list to promote an unrelated business or service is different. For example, a broker or agent generally could not use real estate client information to market a separate business — such as a plumbing company — if that was not the purpose for which consent was originally provided. Understanding consent, client information, and appropriate business use is an important part of Alberta real estate practice. Start your career in Real Estate today! Our courses equip you with the skills needed to pass your licensing exam in Alberta. Link in the comments.

Episode Chapter Summaries Chapter 1: The Cosmic Zipper — From Silicon Valley to Telltale Games (00:01 – 04:13) Anne introduces BAFTA award-winning actor Cissy Jones, listing her massive credits across the video game landscape. Cissy shares her unique origin story, starting not in theater, but in the fast-paced venture capital world of Silicon Valley. Despite an early childhood calling to act, she followed corporate expectations until a profound sense of unhappiness led her to a voiceover school. Cissy introduces her concept of the "cosmic zipper"—that beautiful alignment where life clicks together once you finally uncover your true purpose. Within two years of rigorous study, she booked her first massive multi-character rolepacket as Katya in Telltale Games' The Walking Dead. Chapter 2: The Ultimate Boss Move & The Impact of the Mic (04:14 – 07:47) Anne pauses to highlight an incredible tactical move from Cissy's early days: learning how to engineer audioaudio engineer sessions when she couldn't afford a class ticket, allowing her to stay in the casting room and absorb director feedback through osmosis. Cissy highlights her deep appreciation for characters like Lilith in Disney's The Owl House. She recounts emotional fan interactions at Comic-Cons, where parents and children shared how her character's arc helped them process their own queer or neurodivergent identities, reinforcing the true purpose of human storytelling. Chapter 3: Mastering Storytelling & Leaning Into Vulnerability (07:48 – 11:44) Anne asks Cissy what internal mechanics make a voice actor a master storyteller. Cissy credits her willingness to tap deeply into intense, unshielded human emotion on demand. She offers a crucial piece of advice for talent exploring the character and interactive space: when a script calls for real, raw emotion, do not paint over it with cartoony comedy. Voice actors must lean courageously into authentic psychological vulnerability while carefully managing their own mental well-being when a heavy scene leaves them emotionally drained. Chapter 4: The 3-Second Threat & The AI Wake-Up Call (11:45 – 17:31) The conversation turns to advocacy as Cissy recounts a terrifying experience during the 2021 COVID lockdown. Fans alerted her to AI voice clone platforms generating pornographic content using her vocal likeness from The Owl House. When she demanded a takedown, the platforms refused, citing a complete lack of protective voice laws. Cissy breaks down a jarring technological reality: in 2021, creating a believable vocal clone required roughly 10 hours of studio audio; today, it takes just 3 seconds. She highlights why NAVA is actively working with legislators to target security loopholes, citing an experiment where NAVA co-founder Karin Gilfrey successfully bypassed her personal bank security using an AI clone of her own voice. Chapter 5: Ethovox — Creating a Safe Haven Under Lock and Key (17:32 – 24:03) Drawing on her technical venture capital background, Cissy shares why she refused to sit idly by and instead launched her own ethical AI startup called Ethovox. Unlike predatory public marketplaces that ingest and trade off voice talent data, Ethovox operates as a highly secure, private repository. The company explicitly mandates full actor consent, works hand-in-hand with talent agencies to negotiate fair rates, and refuses to sell baseline training data. Cissy reveals a massive boss move: walking away from a lucrative seven-figure institutional funding offer because the investors admitted they did not care if voice actors survived. Chapter 6: The Fight in D.C. & How the VO Community Can Help (24:04 – End) Cissy praises NAVA's leadership—specifically Tim Friedlander, CKarin Gilfrey, and Matthew Parham—for their relentless, bipartisan legislative efforts in Washington, D.C., to pass protections such aspushes in Washington, D.C. to pass protections like the federal No Fakes Act. She stresses that while Washington politicians may not inherently care about actors, they care deeply about cybersecurity risks and digital identity theft affecting their voters. The episode wraps with an urgent call to action for the VO community to support NAVA through membership dues, alongside an invitation to participate in NAVA's annual Day of Play charity streaming event. Top 10 Boss Takeaways Watch for the "Cosmic Zipper": If you are forcing a career path and constantly meeting friction and exhaustion, step back. When you strike the path you were truly meant to walk, the doors lock into place effortlessly. Immerse yourself through service: If you cannot afford premium training starting out, find alternative ways to be in the room. Learn to engineer, edit, or assist so you can witness directing choices and build organic network connections. Storytelling demands real human impact: Vocal mechanics mean absolutely nothing if your performance isn't reaching past the microphone to touch, change, or validate the human experience of the listener. Don't hide behind a cartoon read: When a script asks for deep psychological weight or heavy sorrow, do not soften the blow with safe, performative humor. Stand confidently in your vulnerability. Acknowledge the 3-second reality: Vocal cloning technology requires as little as 3 seconds of pristine audio—meaning your outgoing cell phone voicemail clip is enough to compromise security systems or clone your identity. AI needs ethical boundaries: Innovation cannot be stopped, but it must be met with the three foundational pillars of advocacy: absolute Consent, fair Compensation, and structural Control over personal vocal assets. Protect your core data: Avoid voice AI platforms that treat your unique biological voiceprint as disposable ammunition to train broader, open-source language models. Reputation over revenue: True leaders know when to walk away. Cissy's rejection of a massive seven-figure check because investors devalued human talent is the ultimate blueprint for protecting your personal integrity over a quick paycheck. Bipartisan framing is key in advocacy: When pushing for systemic change or workplace protections, leave personal political ideologies outside the room. Speak directly to staffers about the universal dangers of digital kidnapping, fraud, and corporate IP theft. A rising tide lifts all boats: Success in this industry is never a zero-sum game. There is plenty of room for creative minds to flourish. Lift your peers up, guard each other's rights, and protect the human element.

We get into: Why so many people are disconnected from their bodies during sexWhy so many women have never truly felt safe with menHow patriarchy impacts men's emotional and sexual expressionThe difference between performing intimacy vs. actually feeling itHow power and consent - when done consciously - can become tools for healingAnd the thing most relationships are missing: how to repair after ruptureAnd little-big Daddy DynamicsIntimacy isn't just about how you connect when things are good…It's about what happens after things break.And most of us were never taught how to come back together.This episode is an invitation to look at your relationships, your desires, and your body through a completely different lens.___Meet Our GuestBear (he/ him) is an Intimacy Coach & Touch Therapist, supporting individuals, couples and thruples in expanding pleasure, exploring authentic relating, and deepening into intimacy.

Email: bidemiologunde@gmail.comIn this episode, host Bidemi Ologunde sits down with Thede Loder, Co-Founder and CTO at Rewarded Interest, about how privacy, digital advertising, consent, and economic incentives collide across the modern internet. What does real consent look like when users are exhausted by cookie popups? Can people control their data without sacrificing convenience? Should users be paid when advertisers spend money to reach them? Thede explains how Rewarded Interest is rethinking consent fatigue, user-controlled identity, publisher revenue, and advertiser transparency through a model designed to reduce friction and better align incentives for everyone involved.
Amy Griffin's bestselling memoir The Tell was celebrated by Oprah and Reese Witherspoon as a powerful story of recovered memories, trauma, and healing, until a lawsuit was filed more recently. In this episode, we discuss The New York Times stories on the topic, and unpack the controversy surrounding Griffin. Griffin's attorney has defended her and called the lawsuit bogus, saying “we look forward to exposing these meritless claims in court, as well as the deeply flawed New York Times reporting that is at the center of it.

Dr. Paul Thomas sits down with Peter McCullough, M.D. — internist, cardiologist, epidemiologist, and author of the new book *[Vaccines, Mythology, Ideology and Reality](https://a.co/d/02qncPEJ)* — for one of the most substantive children's health conversations this show has hosted. Dr. McCullough has published over a thousand peer-reviewed articles, established the first life-saving treatment protocol for SARS-CoV-2, and has spent years leading the [McCullough Foundation](https://mcculloughfnd.org/)'s systematic review of the vaccination literature. This is that conversation.
Is rotary really better than reciprocating? Can you safely skip the glide path with modern reciprocating systems? What is the best file system for a GDP who wants predictable endodontic results? And perhaps the biggest question of all: does the file system matter as much as we think it does? In Part 2 of the Endo Showdown, Dr Samuel Johnson returns to tackle some of the most common questions dentists have about file systems, glide path preparation, retreatment, and endodontic workflow. From practical negotiation tips to choosing a system that works in your hands, this episode focuses on the decisions that can make endodontics simpler, safer, and more predictable. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=onZMR-872HQ Watch PDP271 on YouTube Protrusive Dental Pearl Cut your gutta-percha at the level of the canal orifice and thoroughly clean the pulp chamber before placing the coronal restoration. ⚠️ Leaving gutta-percha and sealer coronally can compromise the coronal seal and promote leakage. ✅ Use isopropyl alcohol to clean resin-based sealer residue before bonding. Water is effective for cleaning bioceramic sealers. Key Takeaways Establish a glide path before shaping whenever possible. D-Finders can negotiate difficult canals more predictably than traditional K-files. Intermediate files such as size 12 or 12.5 can help bridge the jump from size 10 to size 15. Straight-line access reduces file binding and improves shaping efficiency. Avoid forcing glide path files to working length. Gates Glidden drills may be unnecessarily aggressive for routine coronal flaring. Consistency with one file system is often more important than chasing the latest product. WaveOne Gold remains a simple and user-friendly option for many GDPs. Rotary and reciprocating systems can both achieve successful outcomes when used appropriately. A good glide path is often more important than the type of motion being used. Hand files and Hedström files remain valuable during retreatment. Mechanical GP removal near the apex increases the risk of extrusion. Solvents are best reserved for residual gutta-percha rather than used at the start of retreatment. Understanding motor settings, torque, and RPM improves file safety and efficiency. Knowing when to refer is a sign of clinical maturity, not weakness. Clear consent and expectation management reduce stress for both clinician and patient.

Big Tech is quietly executing a massive land-grab across rural America, and local citizens are being cut entirely out of the political process. From bypassed zoning laws to the rapid depletion of local resources, the hyperscale data center expansion is permanently altering the landscape of states like Wyoming, Texas, and Ohio. Today, I interview Cheyenne, Wyoming, resident Heather Madrid, who details her fight against the dozens of hyperscale data centers targeting her county, exposing how local officials, economic development agencies, developers, and major technology companies are allegedly working together to fast-track rezonings and annexations before residents even know what's happening. By the time citizens learn about the projects, the decisions have already been made. We dive deep into the devastating impact on local infrastructure, the sudden surge of labor camps, and why this unchecked expansion represents the ultimate form of social transformation without representation.

When puberty hits earlier and emotions run higher, the conversations we have with our kids about their bodies, sex, and consent matter more than ever. Kids are already learning about these topics earlier and earlier from peers, media and the world around them. To help parents keep up, host Elise Hu revisits earlier conversations with Dr. Cara Natterson and Dr. Nadine Thornhill with their expert guidance for parents supporting kids through puberty, adulthood, and relationships. Dr. Natterson first offers advice on answering tough questions, sharing the science behind changing bodies, and how parents can start – and restart – hard conversations again and again. Dr. Thornhill later breaks down how parents can start teaching consent with age-appropriate language early, and shares her strategies for creating judgment-free spaces for open conversations, curiosity, and the foundation for healthy relationships. Key Takeaways: Practice humility when having conversations that might not have landed the first time. Teach kids the science behind puberty, to make it feel less foreign. Cooperatively create strategies with your child ahead of time to tackle mood swings or big emotions as they happen. Own your values, state the facts, avoid myths when tackling harder conversations. Mirror consent in your relationship with your kids, to encourage healthy relationships of their own. ⏱️ Timestamps: Keep the conversation going at home with our FREE Conversation Kit companion guides: Puberty: https://delivery.shopifyapps.com/-/635fc50075e16277/a79a12e9a0e00e65 Sex & Consent: https://delivery.shopifyapps.com/-/9b568f6658d0ea66/888e268eaecfb4cd Follow Dr. Cara Natterson on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/caranatterson Learn more from Dr. Nadine Thornhill: https://everybodycurious.com New episodes every Tuesday: YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@AKidsCo Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/raising-us-a-parenting-podcast/id1552286967 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/2bIRVxM8hbriNxydkSv6VG Or wherever you get your podcasts.

Why do anomalous experiences so often arrive in the wake of trauma? And what happens when the people who understand that connection decide to use it as a weapon? This episode of Inquiry follows trauma as the hidden throughline connecting UFOs, consciousness, psychological operations, and the engineering of belief at scale. Kelly Chase starts with how human perception actually works, drawing on Donald Hoffman's "The Case Against Reality," James Madden's umwelt and über-umwelt from "Unidentified Flying Hyperobject," and Jeffrey Kripal's Filter Thesis, then grounds it all in the predictive processing model of the brain and Karl Friston's free energy principle. The picture that emerges is unsettling: trauma doesn't only wound a person, it makes them porous, loosening the filters that hold consensus reality in place. From there the conversation turns toward how that vulnerability has been exploited. It traces belief manipulation from the 1980 "From PSYOP to MindWar" paper by Michael Aquino and Paul Vallely, through MKULTRA and Operation Mockingbird, to the declassified reality of Operation Northwoods and the manufacturing of consent. It brings in Jacques Vallée's control system hypothesis and Colm Kelleher's concept of bidirectional mimicry to ask whether human institutions and the phenomenon itself may be using the same lever: disruption, destabilization, and the reshaping of belief in the rupture's aftermath. Then it turns the dread on its head. Research on openness to experience and Post-Traumatic Growth suggests the architects of mass stress made a critical miscalculation. Trauma creates openings, and openings go both ways. You can crack the shell of consensus reality to make people malleable, but you cannot control what hatches. Topics explored: Trauma and anomalous experience | experiencer patterns | the Filter Thesis | Donald Hoffman | perception as interface | umwelt and über-umwelt | James Madden | Jeffrey Kripal | predictive processing | Karl Friston | free energy principle | belief malleability | shattered assumptions | meaning violation | belief engineering | MindWar | Michael Aquino | Paul Vallely | psychological operations | MKULTRA | Operation Mockingbird | cognitive sovereignty | bidirectional mimicry | Colm Kelleher | black triangle craft | Jacques Vallée | control system hypothesis | Operation Northwoods | manufactured consent | openness to experience | Post-Traumatic Growth | consciousness-level immune response | non-human intelligence | contact experiences Inquiry with Kelly Chase is brought to you by SpectreVision Radio.Produced in partnership with Voltage.fm.
