Podcasts about Critic

When something shocking or difficult happens, we're often told we need to "process" our emotions. But what if that endless loop of replaying events in your mind isn't actually processing at all? In this episode, Drew and Josh explore the crucial difference between healthy emotional processing and anxious rumination that keeps us stuck.How to distinguish between genuine emotional processing and OCD/GAD-style ruminationWhy that "urgent" feeling to think through something repeatedly might be a red flagThe difference between being with your feelings versus chasing a particular feelingWhy real processing can't be forced or scheduled on demandHow to recognize when your mind is "hunting for problems to solve"Processing vs. Ruminating: Real processing involves experiencing emotions from multiple perspectives and naturally leads somewhere. Anxious thinking loops from a single anxious viewpoint, chasing certainty or relief that never comes.The Mirage Effect: Like chasing an oasis in the desert, compulsive thinking promises relief that always stays just out of reach.Beyond the Urgent: If thinking through something feels urgent or mandatory right now, it's likely anxiety rather than processing.Community Contributions In This Episode:Dental Victory (15:50): A listener shares how she conquered dental anxiety and gave herself full credit for the winDouble Challenge (29:15): Managing husband's travel anxiety while attending a family party - and having a panic attack but staying anywayPanic Attack Breakthrough (32:30): Learning to let panic attacks run their course instead of fleeing to safetyTimestamps02:00 - Listener question: When does processing become anxious looping?05:20 - Josh explains the mechanics of OCD triggers after shocking events09:15 - Drew on narrative therapy and finding meaning versus chasing feelings13:00 - The misuse of "doing mode" - when thinking becomes a compulsion18:30 - Why Craig the Critic might tell you to keep "processing"21:00 - Josh's personal example of organic grief processing26:10 - Signs of unprocessed emotions versus anxious rumination27:30 - Why urgency is often a sign it's anxiety, not processingTrue emotional processing happens organically and involves being with difficult feelings without trying to fix them. When "processing" feels urgent, repetitive, or like chasing relief, it's likely anxious thinking in disguise. The goal isn't to process everything immediately, but to allow natural emotional experiences while living your life.---Disordered Roundtables are here!

What's the difference between being an enthusiast and a critic? Can you love something - really love it - without being pretentious about it? In this episode, Sarah and I head to the Guinness Open Gate Brewery in Chicago to wrestle with a question that's been nagging me for weeks: what's the fine line between appreciation and snobbery? Along the way, I talk with Dylan Quinn and Jeremy Schultz from the Guinness team about beer, comparison, and the myth of the “expert.” This one's about more than beer. It's about passion, humility, identity - and learning to enjoy the pour without putting yourself on a pedestal.

This episode we invite our good friend James to make his feature episode debut! As a reformed Film Snob, he brings great insight, curiosity, and as always tons of fun as we discuss both the practicality and pitfalls of mainstream pretentious critics. When we're on topic, we discuss the role professional movie critics play in audience reception. We also debate if the role of critic is still relevant (or if they ever were), and to what capacity. Perhaps now more than ever the phrase "everybody is a critic" applies, because some of our favorite movies were found ignoring the formal recommendations. When we're sidetracked, we discuss movie going differences between Australia and the States, personal values and parenthood changing our perception, the downfall of movie poster art, and crying during Venom 3, and much, much more!Check out the "I Was A Teenage Film Snob" podcast!

After an unplanned break, Chris and Neil are back in it with two new giant blockbusters. First, after the intro, they talk the Joseph Kosinski directed F1 starring Brad Pitt, Damson Idris and Javier Bardem. Then, after news, they discuss James Gunn's first foray to jumpstart the DCEU with Superman. Too many stars to name! After a fair warning, they launch into a spoiler filled section where Neil drops knowledge on the easter eggs and Chris asks questions. Is F1 racing to one of the best movies of the summer?

Send us a textWhat do you do when the meanest voice you hear is your own? For independent filmmaker and Pixar artist Masha Ellsworth, that question became the most important creative challenge of her life. After a decade of professional success, she found herself feeling stuck, fearful, and creatively paralyzed—until a message inside a fortune cookie gave her a new mission: "Silence the critic within."In this vulnerable and deeply relatable conversation, Masha takes host Lira Ndifon on her journey to understand and tame the inner bully that was holding her back. She reveals the psychological origins of the inner critic, how it can be a distorted echo of parents, teachers, and even our heroes, and why its ultimate goal is to keep us "safe" by keeping us small. This episode is a powerful exploration of how to reclaim your authentic self from the grip of self-doubt.This is a must-listen for any creative, perfectionist, or anyone who has ever felt like they weren't good enough. You will discover:The Fortune Cookie That Started It All: The simple, profound moment that sparked an entire film and a journey of self-healing.Taming Your Inner Bully: Why fighting your inner critic doesn't work, and how to build a new relationship with it through self-compassion and understanding.Practical Tools for a Quieter Mind: Masha shares the surprising, non-meditative techniques she uses to take a break from negative thought-loops—from simple puzzle games to doodling.The Inner Critic vs. The Inner Child: How nurturing your inner child's sense of play and wonder is the most powerful antidote to the critic's voice of perfectionism.This isn't just a conversation about filmmaking; it's a practical guide to making peace with the most difficult parts of yourself, so you can finally get on with the business of living a full, brave, and creative life.Support the showCall to Action: Engage with the Self-Reflection Podcast community!

Permítannos que por una vez nos pongamos serios. Se ha recibido una notificación de la dirección del programa en la que se le reprocha al Criticón de La Cultureta Gran Reserva una falta grave de profesionalidad. En el memorando fechado a día 15 de julio en Madrid, se menciona literalmente la expresión “lamentamos comunicarle que se le ha pirado un poco el pancho en las últimas semanas”, lo que -según la compañía- ha supuesto una clara desatención de sus labores como crítico oficial del programa.  E igual es verdad. En esta última crítica ciega de la temporada, el crítico hace autocrítica, recomienda una serie de libros finales que incluyen ensayo, novela y poesía, y luego hace un barrido rápido de recomendaciones estivales indispensables: Recomienda la compra -ni siquiera la lectura- de los libros ‘Lo que el pibe le dijo a Dios', en Espasa, de Miguel Venegas; ‘Dos tardes con Joseph Roth', en Alianza Editorial, de Sergio del Molino; ‘Mad Men, Me llamo Peggy Olson', de Isabel Vázquez en Ediciones B; ‘Tenemos que hablar', de Rubén Amón en Espasa; ‘Los silencios de la libertad: cómo Europa perdió y ganó su democracia' obra maestra de Guillermo Altares en Tusquets; ‘Donde caiga la flecha', escrito a cuatro manos por Emilia Landaluce y Rosa Belmonte en Espasa y, claro, cómo no, la extraordinaria colección de relatos llamada ‘Postales de Interior', del autor Nacho Ibernón publicada impecablemente por Ediciones Oblicuas. Entretanto, es de justicia saber que JF León no para ni un segundo y puede ser leído en la revista ruta 66, ser visto en su canal de YouTube o ser escuchado en su podcast Let's Rock Radio y que, si viajan a Colombia, sepan que han de comprarse el libro de Carlos Zúmer sobre Nayro Quintana, incunable que sólo se puede adquirir allá.  Fin. Buen verano.

This episode introduces the Obedient Critic, a villain archetype rooted in the fear of humiliation and obsession with hierarchy and order. Kristina breaks down how this archetype develops in high-pressure environments where performance and perfection are rewarded—and how it can show up as a moral superiority that isolates the individual from authentic connection.We explore the transformation journey from perfectionist and people-pleaser to the Hero (the Anarchist) and ultimately the Legend (the Equalizer), who is free of internalized hierarchy and embodies true humility and presence.Archetype Breakdown:Pinnacle Villain: The Obedient Critic — uses shame and order to control.Successful Antagonist: The Perfectionist — believes perfect behavior can prevent shame.Wounded Child: The Impostor — feels inherently outside the system.Covert Form: The People Pleaser — overfunctions to relieve pressure and maintain peace.Hero: The Anarchist — dismantles internal and external hierarchy.Legend: The Equalizer — creates belonging through humility and integrity.Key Concepts:The wound of humiliation leads to rigid systems of control.How early childhood environments (e.g. rigid parenting, institutional pressure) shape this archetype.The trap of confusing shame avoidance with moral superiority.Why the Equalizer isn't just rebellious—but relational and rooted.Releasing “obedience to the system” in favor of creating systems rooted in mutual dignity.Case Study: Reddit AITA Post AnalysisScenario: Husband lies about Valentine's plans to be with his abusive mother.Archetypes:Mother = Obedient CriticHusband = People Pleaser (covert)Wife = Anarchist in transitionThemes: Shame, inherited obedience, loyalty vs protection, moral blindness.Referenced Tools:Human Design: Root Center (pressure to act, perform, do)Enneagram: Type 1 (Reformer/Perfectionist)Drama Triangle: Persecutor (Villain), Victim (Wounded Child), Rescuer (Covert Form)Study link: https://www.canonsociaalwerk.eu/1971_stigma/1973%20Rosenhan%20Being%20sane%20in%20insane%20places%20OCR.pdf?utm_source=chatgpt.comQuotes:“You are effectively keeping yourself in a toxic system and calling it integrity.”“The Obedient Critic doesn't want connection—they want order.”“Humiliation is the worst possible wound for this archetype.
