“Over 220 global FOIs done to various governments, universities & scientists/scientific depts asking them to provide evidence of these " Viruses".... None of them can - including Wuhan!”Join us for a live King Hero interview with Canadian champion in the no-virus war, Christine Massey, to see behind the scenes in her life.We'll talk about where she was at in 2020, what motivated her to pull back the “virus” wizard's curtain, and how she's managed on the front lines of this war.Bio:Christine Massey is a former statistician from Canada who has become known for her extensive use of Freedom of Information requests to investigate the scientific evidence for the existence of SARS-CoV-2 and other alleged viruses. She began her inquiries in early 2020 after becoming skeptical of the official narrative surrounding the alleged COVID-19 pandemic, drawing on her background which included activism against water fluoridation, which taught her to question public health claims. Her research focuses on whether health institutions can provide essential foundational evidence for the existence of alleged viruses, as well as for contagion and the claimed pathogenicity of any bacteria.Website: https://www.fluoridefreepeel.caFB: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100084768107639Substack: https://substack.com/@christinemasseyfois1 ***Bumper music by Liam Martens, aka ツSaiko, sub to him here on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@SA1KO0O1 ***MORE FROM BETHSign up to take a 10-minute King Hero's Journey archetype quizApply to become a member of the House of Free WillRumbleKing Hero Telegram ChannelTwitter (X)InstagramSign up for a Hero's Journey Archetype ReadingOrder a copy of my book, ‘Journey: A Map of Archetypes to Find Lost Purpose in a Sea of Meaninglessness'Donate by PayPal if you're inspiredFollow the King Hero's Journey Podcast on... Apple Podcasts Spotify ***And if we're just meeting...I'm Beth Martens, a pattern hunter, archetype reader, podcaster, author, coach trainer, and business coach, and my calling is a life or death thing. After a decade as a corporate VP in my family's firm, eight trips to India, and a three-year battle with cancer nearly 25 years ago, I used archetypes and deprogramming harmful patterns to save my life.I was doing nearly everything wrong, in the physical, but tapped into and let go of the roots of the matter that were embedded and unconscious. And I went from dying to living practically overnight.Today I help people who love the truth more than their beliefs, and who want to serve with their life's work and be on their Hero's Journey, to de-program the beast system and stop making it easy for those trying to kill us.I host regular King Hero interviews highlighting leaders, entrepreneurs, movement makers, and lovers of freedom.

Five songs. Five distinct moods. One immersive listen that moves from hazy warmth to triumphant return to a heart-tugging plea that won't leave you alone. We spin through new and notable band singles from the Philippines, South Korea, and Japan, comparing notes on production, emotional arcs, and those tiny moments—drops, claps, whispers—that flip a good track into a great one.We start with Over October's 'Dahan', where soft rock and a psychedelic sheen create a slow-burn glow. The vocal sits rich and husky while the guitar shimmers, and a late-song drop brings a goosebump whisper that seals the mood. From there, macico's 'puppet' layers lounge, J-pop, and R&B, all breathy and conspiratorial, hinting at power, distance, and the loneliness between the lines. CNBLUE's 'Curtain call' turns the energy up without losing finesse: bright piano, brass accents, and a propulsive groove that feels like walking back onstage to cheers—grateful, charged, alive. Sakurashimeji's 'who!' brings youthful drive with a smart stereo intro, handclap lift, and a mid-song funk wink that keeps the ride playful and tight. We close on SURL's 'Please stay', where the guitar weeps and the vocal folds into the arrangement like another instrument. It's melancholic, intoxicating, and beautifully produced, the kind of track that asks for one more midnight replay.Throughout, we talk arrangement choices, vocal textures, sonic influences—psychedelic touches, jazz inflections, R&B undercurrents—and how personal context shapes what we hear. If you love discovering Asian indie, pop rock, and cross-genre band sounds, this one's packed with gems and ear-candy details worth your time.Your notes help others find the music, and your favorites might make our next playlist—what track hit you hardest?Over October: Instagram X YouTube Dahanmacico: Instagram X YouTube puppetCNBLUE: Instagram X YouTube Curtain callSakura Shimeji: Instagram X YouTube who!SURL: Instagram YouTube Please staySupport the showPlease help Music Elixir by rating, reviewing, and sharing the episode.

(The Life and Times of Daniel Part 3)God has pulled back the curtain for in our now.  We are living what it looks like when God pulls back the curtain, and so the depth of the darkness we are basking inToday, we're living in a world where the ugly underbelly of humanity is no longer hidden:Greed parades in the streets.Selfishness gets celebrated as independence.Deception trends faster than truth.Manipulation is marketed as a strategy.Sexual sin has become our declaration of freedom.Political upheaval has become the norm.Satanic agendas are boldly promoted in music, TV, and policy.Children's pain is ignored, minimized, or exploited.Human trafficking headlines grow weekly.Leaders are indicted while still campaigning.Wars erupt while peace talks crumble.Gun violence and school shootings headline the week.Economic instability shakes families daily.Celebrities normalize witchcraft and dark spirituality.And the only reason we haven't fainted like Daniel is because we have been desensitized by a culture soaked in darkness.Closing Song: Wake Up Everybody by Harold Melvin and the Blue Notes featuring Teddy Pendergrass.Support the showwww.BibleDeliverance.org

Young Activists Plan the Audacious Pan-European Picnic. Matthew Longo describes how in late June 1989, young activists Fedins and Maria in Debrecen conceived an audacious plan to throw a protest party—The Picnic—at the Iron Curtain near Sopron. They aimed to challenge communism and celebrate freedom. Though the Curtain was a deadly "death zone," not a simple fence, they secured a unique one-time crossing, allowing Austrians to join the Hungarians. Guest: Matthew Longo.

A conversation with Brent DialTo Brent Dial, the pursuit of health is about three things: agency, education, and collaboration.And that's exactly what Beek Health, the start-up he co-founded earlier this year, are all about.Beek are on a mission to revolutionize the bloated patient data process: reducing wasted time, resources and patient stress. Gone are repeated scans, poor communication and unnecessary surgeries.By putting the power into the patient's hands, their innovative combination of health literacy, technology, and patient empowerment raises hope for solving the issues of healthcare equity in the United States. —We spoke about how the current healthcare system often leaves patients feeling disconnected and uninformed, biomarkers, the role of technology in democratizing health information, and the need for a paradigm shift from a clinician-centric to a patient-centric approach.Follow me on Instagram and Facebook @ericfethkemd and checkout my website at www.EricFethkeMD.com.

Cerebrospinal fluid shows brain-region-specific dynamics, a new high-resolution MRI approach reveals.

On this week's Talkhouse Podcast we've got a pair of singer-songwriters who exist in a sort of post-genre world: Evan Honer and Wyatt Flores. Honer first came to wider attention with a cover of Tyler Childers' “Jersey Giant,” but kept people's attention with a rapid succession of progressively more polished albums, all tied together by his own solid songwriting. For his latest, Everything I Wanted, Honer found himself a new home city, Nashville, where he built a studio in his garage and—as you'll hear in this conversation—locked himself away to make something bolder than he had before. The result is shiny pop with a gritty heart, and just a touch of country influence. Think Jason Isbell or Pinegrove, two artists Honer cites as inspirations. Check out “Curtain” from Everything I Wanted right here, which I should mention was released by Honer's own very active independent label, Cloverdale Records. He's a busy dude, and he'll be touring the US early next year, so keep an eye out for that. The other half of today's conversation is Honer's friend Wyatt Flores, who travels a similar musical ground but you can hear a bit more country in his flavor profile—maybe that's his roots growing up in Oklahoma. If you're of the TikTok generation, you may have seen him there; if you're a bit longer in the tooth, you may have seen Flores on Stephen Colbert, NPR's Tiny Desk Concert series, or even a recent Austin City Limits appearance. Part of the story behind his debut album, last year's Welcome to the Plains, was Flores' struggles with his newfound fame and a sense of imposter syndrome. While it's brave of him to put that stuff out in the open, it's pretty clear from the record that he's the real deal. In this lively conversation, these two young dudes talk about making music, about an impromptu road trip in a busted up trailer, about the strong coffee and rowdy crowds down under, and much more. Enjoy. 0:00 – Intro 2:15 – Start of the chat 5:44 – How to keep old songs feeling fresh 7:28 – "Do people listen more with their eyes than ears?" 12:20 – An inpromptu road trip on a busted, old trailer 15:42 – On recording 'Everything I Wanted' 20:37 – On taking the time to listen to albums top to bottom 22:15 – Writing music on the road 27:56 – On experimenting with live vocals 32:20 – The surprising kindness of audiences at live shows 35:20 – On crowds in the U.K., Europe, and Australia Thanks for listening to the Talkhouse Podcast, and thanks to Evan Honer and Wyatt Flores for chatting.

If you've had bariatric surgery, you already know what it means to commit fully to your health.  But even with your best efforts, bodies adapt, hormones shift, and life adds its own complications. When weight begins to creep back, many people turn to GLP-1 medications for support, and that raises a crucial question: How well do GLP-1s actually work after bariatric surgery?I recently heard from a listener living this exact experience — someone who lost more than 200 pounds after gastric bypass and has now started Zepbound to address weight regain. Her story opens the door to an important conversation about why GLP-1 medications can behave differently in a post-bariatric body, why results may not mirror those of someone without surgical history, and how to redefine success when you've already achieved a significant transformation.ReferencesThe Obesity Guide: Behind the Curtain (Season 1)The Obesity Guide: Behind the Curtain (Season 2) - Includes access to the December 21-Day Challenge with daily coaching, actionable steps, and community support to end your year with momentum.Audio Stamps00:40 - Dr. Rentea shares a heartwarming reunion at the VA, reconnecting with former colleagues and reflecting on how far she's come in her weight loss journey.07:10 - Fan mail question: Does Zepbound (tirzepatide) work the same after gastric bypass surgery, and what weight loss results should you expect?09:11 - Why post-bariatric patients often respond better to GLP-1 medications and become "hyper responders" at lower doses.16:18 - Redefining success: why focusing on your relationship with food and sustainability matters more than hitting a specific weight loss percentage.17:48 - Common post-surgery pitfalls including grazing patterns, excessive step counting, and neglecting body composition tracking.20:42 - Information on the December 21-Day Challenge and upcoming 30/30 program rounds.All of the information on this podcast is for general informational purposes only.

Arts & culture reporter Andrew Shearer (USA TODAY Network) sits down with filmmaker and creator Henrique Couto for a candid, anniversary deep-dive into how Weekly Spooky grew from a Halloween 2019 launch into a must-hear horror podcast.

There are moments in our work that stay with you long after the conversation ends. My interview with Jamie Selzler was one of those moments. At 652 pounds, Jamie's world had become frighteningly small. Short walks left him breathless, and the haunting reality that people his size rarely lived past 50 forced him to face where his life was heading. What followed wasn't a quick fix or dramatic intervention. It was a complete transformation built on small promises, deep self-compassion, and the support of GLP-1 medication. Over three years, Jamie lost more than 340 pounds. But what moved me most wasn't the number on the scale, it was how he rebuilt his relationship with himself. In this powerful conversation, Jamie shares his four rules for lasting change, why he keeps a notebook with hundreds of handwritten wins, and why he refuses to set a goal weight. We talk about forgiving yourself, keeping promises to yourself, and why the happier life isn't waiting at some distant finish line—it's happening right now, in every small choice you make.ReferencesYou can follow Jamie's journey on TikTok: @JamSelz or Instagram: @jselzler.Season 2 of Behind the Curtain is now LIVE!

Following the release of his work, The War of the Worlds Did Not Take Place, Nick Susi joins the pod to unravel the real War of the Worlds myth: not alien panic, but a battle between newspapers and radio that manufactured mass hysteria. Phillip, Brian, and Nick explore how narrative form shapes collective memory, why brands weaponize conflict for attention, and what happens when everything becomes participatory fan fiction.Behind the Curtain of Inherited MythKey takeaways:Structured narratives outlast formless truth in collective memory.Brands now weaponize conflict and controversy for attention economics.Everything is becoming participatory, co-created, and infinite fan fiction."The War of the Worlds is not actually a war between humans and aliens. It's really this war between mediums." — Nick Susi"We've entered the phase of the attention economy where the game is attention at any and all costs." — Nick Susi"People don't want to share the thing. They want to share their experience of the thing." — W. David Marx (referenced)"Awareness does not decrease manipulation necessarily." –– Brian"We've become much more aware of the act of storytelling as a culture, like we see the artifice of storytelling and we appreciate the act of it itself." –– PhillipIn-Show Mentions:The War of the Worlds performance piece and publication by Nick SusiOrder The War of the Worlds Did Not Take Place on MetalabelBlank Space by W.

This special Halloween Your Friday Five episode is all about removing the candy scarcity mindset and setting yourself up for success. For many people, Halloween can feel like a slippery slope — candy in the house, kids bringing home buckets of it, and old habits kicking in. But it doesn't have to derail you.In this episode, I cover:How to create candy neutrality. Candy isn't forbidden, and it's not scarce. Halloween candy is available all year long. When we remove the “forbidden fruit” mentality, the brain stops screaming for it. Remind yourself you can have it tomorrow, next week, or whenever you choose — there's no urgency.Why eating real food first matters. When you have a balanced meal with protein, fiber, and healthy fats before eating candy, your blood sugar is steadier, your dopamine hit is lower, and you're far less likely to feel out of control. Eating real food first changes how the candy impacts your body and your decision-making.Plan it, don't police it. Instead of strict rules, create gentle boundaries that make you feel empowered. For example: decide to choose your favorite two pieces, savor them slowly, and wait until you're home to enjoy them. This moves you from restriction to intention — and that's where you regain control.And if things don't go as planned, remember: one night won't undo your progress. Give it a five-second funeral, wake up the next day, and go right back to your normal, balanced habits.Your power doesn't come from perfection — it comes from intention.All of the information on this podcast is for general informational purposes only.
