Jennifer Aniston is finally setting the record straight, revealing the truth behind her two-decade fertility battle and slamming the false tabloid narratives that painted her as “career-obsessed.” Meanwhile, Real Housewives of New York City insiders say Bravo’s reboot is “a mess” with producers scrambling to salvage the cast. And down south, rising country star Maggie Baugh is under fire for allegedly using Keith Urban’s highly publicized split from Nicole Kidman to push her own music career — with one insider calling it “the most shameless publicity play in Nashville.” Don't forget to vote in today's poll on Twitter at @naughtynicerob or in our Facebook group.

Doug Stuart welcomes back James Whitford, founder of Watered Gardens and the True Charity Initiative, for an in-depth discussion on his new book, The Crisis of Dependency: How Our Efforts to Solve Poverty Are Trapping People in It, and What We Can Do to Foster Freedom Instead. James shares the journey from launching a small local ministry in Joplin, Missouri, to spearheading a national movement focused on transforming how we address poverty.Diving into the roots of toxic charity and the pitfalls of well-intended handouts, James explains how our charitable efforts often create cycles of dependency—rather than empowering those in need. He unpacks the principles of true charity: it should be privately funded, outcome-driven, and challenge-oriented, always respecting the dignity and agency of every individual.Doug and James also explore practical steps for compassionate, effective giving, the important role of relationships in overcoming poverty, and how churches and organizations can shift from relief-based to empowerment-based ministry. With references to Frédéric Bastiat, John Stuart Mill, and powerful personal anecdotes, this episode challenges listeners to rethink what it means to truly help—and to foster real freedom in their communities.Crisis of Dependency Book Description:Millions in the U.S. are trapped in cycles of poverty due to well-meaning but misguided charitable models. In The Crisis of Dependency, James Whitford, Founder of Watered Gardens Ministries, shares how our compassion often perpetuates the very problems we aim to solve. Through personal stories, firsthand experience, and research, he reveals that handouts offer temporary relief but deepen dependency.James has worked for decades with those struggling with homelessness and poverty and after a brief stint of living on the streets, he recognized that what most people in poverty need isn't material aid alone, but a path to self-sufficiency. Inspired by thought leaders like Marvin Olasky and Robert D. Lupton, and drawing from his own ministry, Whitford reimagined charity as one that restores dignity through relationship and accountability. His work has transformed lives by helping individuals build the skills and mindset needed for long-term success.This book offers a blueprint for those who want to move beyond transactional charity. James invites readers to embrace approaches that challenge the status quo and cultivate meaningful, sustainable change in communities.Audio Production by Podsworth Media - https://podsworth.com Use code LCI50 for 50% off your first order at Podsworth.com to clean up your voice recordings and also support LCI!Full Podsworth Ad Read BEFORE & AFTER processing:https://youtu.be/vbsOEODpQGs  ★ Support this podcast ★

Jason Kander and Ravi Gupta break down the escalating tensions in Chicago and Portland as President Trump federalizes the National Guard and local leaders push back. They discuss Illinois Governor JB Pritzker's sharp rebuke of Trump's actions, Pam Bondi's inflammatory comments about Portland officials, and how the president's militarization strategy could intimidate voters ahead of the midterms. Kander and Gupta also react to a bizarre Fox News segment featuring Stephen Miller and a troubling Trump clip on Vietnam and Afghanistan, before examining new reporting on the administration's legally dubious “narco-terrorist” operations in Venezuela. Plus, they debate Democratic strategy on the government shutdown, from stalled negotiations to uncertainty over back pay for federal workers, and unpack Pam Bondi's disastrous Senate testimony as she clashes with Adam Schiff and other lawmakers.

Exclusive: Over 100 guards hired illegally? Shocking whistleblower claim targets King County Jail. The King County Council has approved the controversial crisis care center in Seattle’s Capitol Hill neighborhood. It’s ‘Banned Books Week,’ which is a very misleading title. // Democrat candidate for Governor in California Katie Porter had an absolute train wreck of an interview that couldn’t have made her look more unlikable. // The Mariners game didn’t go very well today.

Ben is joined by author, speaker, and hip-hop artist Jackie Hill Perry in discussing the incredible advantages, as well as the dangers, of doing ministry on a large scale. How do we keep from despising big platforms? Do we insist that God can only use small things?

It's been a little over two weeks since President Donald Trump promoted a highly disputed link between Tylenol use during pregnancy and autism. And reaction remains strong.

Paul Stone, Air Force veteran and author, sounds the alarm on America's retirement crisis and economic collapse. In his explosive new book 1971: How All of America's Problems Can Be Traced to a Singular Day in History, he links today's financial struggles, including skyrocketing housing costs and stagnant wages, to Nixon's removal of the U.S. from the gold standard on August 15, 1971. With 42% of younger Americans living paycheck to paycheck, Stone explains why retirement is now impossible for millions and what's coming next.

PREVIEW HEADLINE: Egypt's Populist Stance vs. National Interest and the Red Sea Crisis GUEST NAME: Hussain Abdel-Hussain SUMMARY: John Batchelor speaks with Hussain Abdel-Hussain about Egypt as a problem for itself, standing by while the war continued. Driven by populism rather than national interest, Egypt failed to open borders for Gazans or force Hamas to surrender. This inaction saw Egypt's Suez Canal income halved due to Houthi Red Sea actions.

2025-10-08 | Silicon Wafers 023 | DAILY UPDATES | Russia is running short of fuel — both at the pumps for civilians and in supply lines for its war machine. Ukraine's escalating long-range strikes, many using its own domestically made weapons, are intensifying pressure. How serious is the crisis? Why Tomahawks are politically powerful but not the only threat, and how Ukraine's Flamingo missiles, drones, and refinery raids are already inflicting real damage. With winter approaching, how vulnerable is Moscow's energy grid and economy that has been retooled for war?Fuel running out — on the ground in Russia. The cracks are showing across Russia, Putin's fake empire. In multiple regions, gas stations are limiting volume per vehicle; fuel is scarce, queues are long, and prices are climbing. (Kyiv Post: “Putin's Gasoline Crisis Spreads: Sales Now Restricted in 4 Regions”) (Kyiv Post)Meduza, a Russian dissident publication, offers stark visuals: stations closed, pumps dry, drivers holding empty jerrycans. (Meduza) In fact, filling jerry cans is now banned in many of the worst affected areas. One station in Tyumen limits sales to 30 litres per car. (Kyiv Post)In Crimea, occupation authorities cut gasoline sales to 20 litres per customer, enforce price caps, and stations simply turn off pumps when they can't fulfil orders. (Meduza)----------Partner on this video: KYIV OF MINE Watch the trailer now: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=arJUcE1rxY0'Kyiv of Mine' is a documentary series about Ukraine's beautiful capital, Kyiv. The film production began in 2018, and much has changed since then. It is now 2025, and this story is far from over.https://www.youtube.com/@UCz6UbVKfqutH-N7WXnC5Ykg https://www.kyivofmine.com/#theprojectKyiv of Mine is fast paced, beautifully filmed, humorous, fun, insightful, heartbreaking, moving, hopeful. The very antithesis in fact of a doom-laden and worthy wartime documentary. This is a work that is extraordinarily uplifting. My friend Operator Starsky says the film is “Made with so much love. The film series will make you laugh and cry.” ----------Autumn Harvest: Silicon Curtain (Goal €22,000)This is super important.

Visit the Sex With Emily Website: https://sexwithemily.com/ In this Sex with Emily episode, Dr. Emily's first guest in the new studio is psychologist Dr. Scott Lyons, author of Addicted to Drama: Healing Dependency on Crisis and Chaos in Yourself and Others. Dr. Lyons reveals how drama addiction isn't just obvious chaos—it's overscheduling, inability to tolerate stillness, and sabotaging intimacy when vulnerability feels threatening. He explains the biology: drama provides energy, numbs pain, and creates sensation that makes us feel alive. Listener questions address a 21-year-old spiraling after her boyfriend called an actress sexy, and a 30-year-old wanting kinkier sex but getting triggered. Dr. Lyons and Dr. Emily emphasize distinguishing sensation-seeking from authentic connection, coming back to the body when triggered, and recognizing how childhood patterns shape adult sexuality and relationships.

At the same time, the administration has also named antifa, the left-wing, anti-fascist political movement, as a domestic terrorist organization. What does action mean for the political movement and how do protests happening now compare to other parts of the world and the history of the U.S.? To answer this question and more, we’ll hear from Shane Burley, a Portland-based writer and filmmaker who is author of the book, “Fascism Today: What It Is and How to End It." He is also the editor of “No Pasaran!: Antifascist Dispatches from a World in Crisis.”

OpenAI has made significant strides in the AI landscape with a series of announcements that position it as a leading platform in the industry. The introduction of new models, including the GPT-5 Pro and Sora 2, alongside app integrations like Slack and a new Apps SDK, marks a pivotal moment for the company. These developments aim to enhance user interaction and streamline workflows, allowing users to perform tasks directly within the ChatGPT interface. The partnership with Advanced Micro Devices (AMD) for a multi-billion dollar chip deal further solidifies OpenAI's commitment to expanding its computing capabilities, crucial for the advancement of its AI technologies.In a contrasting scenario, Deloitte has faced scrutiny after delivering a flawed report to the Australian government, which included errors attributed to the use of AI. Despite this setback, Deloitte is moving forward with a significant partnership with Anthropic to deploy their AI chatbot, Claude, across its workforce. This juxtaposition highlights the challenges and risks associated with AI integration in business operations, emphasizing the need for careful governance and oversight. The incident serves as a cautionary tale about the potential pitfalls of relying too heavily on AI without proper verification.The podcast also discusses the broader implications of AI adoption in enterprises, revealing that a majority of AI projects are failing due to governance gaps and a lack of trust in the technology. A survey by Gartner indicates that many IT leaders are concerned about regulatory compliance, with only a small percentage feeling confident in their organizations' ability to manage AI tools effectively. This situation underscores the importance of establishing robust governance frameworks to ensure that AI implementations are both effective and trustworthy.As the AI landscape continues to evolve, the podcast suggests that service providers should pivot towards building governance frameworks and risk management strategies rather than simply promoting AI hype. The focus should shift to creating value through responsible AI use, ensuring that clients can trust the technology they are implementing. This new approach positions governance as a critical service line, essential for navigating the complexities of AI adoption and maintaining client trust in an increasingly automated world. Three things to know today 00:00 OpenAI Builds the Windows of AI: New Models, App Store, SDKs, and a Chip Deal Signal Platform Takeover06:50 Deloitte's AI Paradox — A Costly Error in Australia, Followed by Its Biggest AI Expansion Yet09:38 AI's Next Frontier Isn't Innovation — It's Accountability, and That's Where MSPs Win This is the Business of Tech.    Supported by:  https://mailprotector.com/  All our Sponsors: https://businessof.tech/sponsors/ Do you want the show on your podcast app or the written versions of the stories?

Have you been wondering…Is this a midlife crisis?Nope. It's not. Not even close.In this episode, Laurie Reynoldson is blowing up the outdated narrative that midlife has to be a downward spiral. If you've found yourself waking up, feeling like something's off—or like the life you've built doesn't quite fit anymore—it's not a crisis. It's a damn awakening.We're diving deep into what's actually going on for high-achieving midlife women: the identity shifts, the whispers of “more,” the restlessness that isn't fixed by a new job, new car, or a few downward dogs.And instead of burning it all down, this episode explores what it looks like to tune in, take inventory, and get honest about the life you want—starting now.Because midlife isn't falling apart. It's coming back to yourself.In this episode, you'll hear:Why what you're feeling isn't a crisis—it's a calling.The real reason external success isn't cutting it anymore.The hidden costs of staying stuck in autopilot.What it means to stop waiting for permission and reclaim your power.A powerful reframing of midlife as a beginning—not an ending.

Nathaniel Bacon and his army of volunteers have returned from beating up on the friendly Occaneechees (Occaneechis) on the Roanoke River in southern Virginia. It is election day, and Henrico County will elect Bacon and his sidekick, James Crews, to the Virginia Assembly, which has been called into session on June 5, 1676. This episode describes the dramatic session of that Assembly, which began with Bacon's arrest and ended with he and his army holding the Assembly at gunpoint. Sir William Berkeley, governor of Virginia, demonstrates his own flair for the dramatic along the way, but by the end of this episode has taken refuge with other loyalists on Virginia's Eastern Shore. Oh, and there is a "manifesto." Never a good sign. Check out the new merch store!

Just as humans have caused climate change, we hold the power to avert a climate apocalypse, but that will only happen through collective political action. Harris outlines the three strategies--progressive, socialist, and revolutionary--that have any chance of succeeding, while also revealing that none of them can succeed on their own. What's Left shows how we must combine them into a single pathway: a meta-strategy, one that will ensure we can move forward together rather than squabbling over potential solutions while the world burns.

Anna Faith is newly engaged—and with her mom, Joanna, she gets honest about the fear of “missing the right one.” From PNG to answered prayers back home, they trace how God moved her from anxious timelines to quiet trust, showing that His goodness isn't limited by place, people, or plans. This conversation gives hopeful, practical pathways to trade grasping for guidance and let God write the story.Topics DiscussedThe hidden belief: “College is the only window to meet the right guy”Crisis of faith on the PNG trip and learning satisfaction in GodVerses that dismantled fear (1 Sam 12:24; Prov 16:9; Matt 6:33; Isa 55:8–9; Ps 34:8; Prov 3:5–6; Isa 62:4–5)How family counsel and parental involvement guided next stepsThe providential “Jonathan” connection and praying through uncertaintyGuardrails against desperation datingWaiting without manipulation: letting God make the introductionsWhat to do with a God-given desire for marriageSpecific prayer requests, looking for light, and following peaceKey TakeawaysGod's goodness is not theoretical—it's traceable. Track His works and let truth replace fear when feelings surge.Desire for marriage is God-made, but timing is God-led. Seek Him first; let Him realign desires and pace the path.You can't miss God's will while you're trusting God. Pray specifically, obey immediately, and watch Him open the right doors.Don't marry out of desperation. Security comes from Christ's sufficiency, not from forcing a relationship.Scripture answers fear in real time.

In this episode, I explore Norman Rush's Mating, focusing on the chapter “Guilty Repose” and the section “Weep for Me.” Through the narrator's encounter with the waterfall, I unpack themes of noise, solitude, mediocrity, and companionship — connecting her revelations to my own experiences with silence, striving, and the human need for connection.Discussion Highlights:How “the roar penetrates you” mirrors our craving for sensory overwhelm — music, crowds, even chaos — to quiet the mind's constant chatter.The painful beauty of solitude eroding, and what it means to reconnect with ourselves after long avoidance.The “Weep for Me” moment as an honest confrontation with buried sadness, surfacing only when the world finally goes quiet.The narrator's fear of mediocrity and how society equates “average” with “unacceptable,” fueling endless striving.The final revelation — “If you had a companion you would stay where you are” — as a call to seek steadiness, humility, and shared presence over transcendence.

In this episode of The Enlightened Executive, I sit down with Juliette Kayyem, Harvard professor, former Assistant Secretary at Homeland Security under President Obama, and CNN Senior National Security Analyst.

We cover: The neuroscience behind decision-making in high-stress situations Why “urgent calm” is the most underutilized leadership skill How to train your team to act—not panic—in moments of crisis The power of pre-mortems to prevent disaster before it starts Whether you're leading a team, scaling a company, or navigating organizational change, this conversation will equip you to lead with clarity, even in chaos. Follow the show for more conversations that spark your personal evolution—and your leadership revolution.

In this explosive episode, we break down the shocking failures of the U.S. judicial system, from federal judges allegedly blocking ICE operations to South Carolina's legislature-controlled courts that let violent offenders roam free. We explore how political appointments, liberal judges, and a broken criminal justice system have contributed to rising chaos in American cities, including threats to federal agents and citizens alike. From Judge Emergold's controversial rulings to Trump's deployment of the National Guard, this episode examines the intersection of politics, law enforcement, and cartel influence — and why some claim parts of the U.S. now resemble Mexico when it comes to lawlessness. We also dive into the misinformation around illegal immigrant healthcare, the federal budget, and media narratives shaping public perception. Coming up at 8:00, hear from key voices and experts as the national conversation on law, order, and political corruption heats up.
