Are You Really Neurodivergent — or Just Relating to the Traits? In this mind-opening episode of Mayim Bialik's Breakdown, Mayim and Jonathan dive deep into the fascinating, complicated, and sometimes confusing world of neurodivergence — from self-diagnosis pitfalls to the superpowers hiding inside neurodivergent brains. Discover what's actually happening physically in neurodivergent brains, and explore the wide range of traits and disorders that fall under the neurodivergent umbrella — from ADHD, autism, and dyslexia to sensory sensitivities and beyond. Mayim and Jonathan unpack the potential superpowers that come with neurodivergence, including empathy, intuition, creativity, pattern recognition, and even enhanced extrasensory perception. Are neurodivergent minds wired for deeper insight? Why has neurodivergence become such a massive topic on social media? Is there really a rise in neurodivergent diagnoses, or just a rise in awareness? We're exploring the difference between validation and pathologizing, the challenges of navigating such a broad spectrum, and the surprising benefits of having a label. They also break down the exhausting nature of masking, share practical tips to combat social anxiety, and explore how to best support neurodivergent young minds in a world built for neurotypicals. From overlapping symptoms to proper diagnosis, treatment options, and environments best suited to manage sensory overwhelm, this episode is packed with insight, empathy, and real-world strategies. PLUS...Mayim and Jonathan take a neurodivergence self-assessment live, Mayim shares her personal coping tips for living with neurodivergence, and Jonathan opens up about how he manages his dyslexia with creativity and humor.

In ancient Greece, the view from on high was known as catascopos, or “the looker-down.” It's a privileged perspective, and in the modern world, one increasingly taken by machines: drones, satellites, spy cameras, airplanes, sentient doorbells. In his new book, Look Out: The Delight and Danger of Taking the Long View, Edward McPherson surveys the cultural history of top-down and far-ranging perspectives from aviation and warfare to quarantine and protest. “We continue to make decisions based on the big picture,” he writes. “Politicians and planners confront the challenges of today with lofty intelligence, always pointing to the forest, not the trees.” Often that view can be obscuring, even as its accuracy is hailed. Consider the dead civilians mistaken for combatants in drone warfare the world over, or the wrong face recognized on CCTV. And in some cases, the forest isn't even there, as in John B. Bachelder's birds-eye map of Gettysburg and its imaginary copse of trees. Is distance the straightest path to truth? What dangers lie in prioritizing the big picture?

Welcome to the DMF.I'm Justin Younts, and in this episode, Sara Alessandrini takes us inside the reckless, bold decisions that pushed her to create her documentary.For Sara, the journey began in 2020, at the height of her growing frustration with the film industry — particularly the way safety protocols were handled as theaters attempted to reopen during the pandemic. Watching parts of the industry prioritize visibility and fame over the safety of audiences deeply disturbed her, and it became the spark that ignited a much larger mission.Sara explains how this moment opened her eyes to the broader issues simmering beneath the surface: the accusations leveled at public figures without due process, the willingness of society to latch onto narratives without questioning them, and the way difficult conversations were being silenced. Determined to understand the truth, she connected with a community of supporters who shared her concerns, and together they set out to document what others refused to talk about.Her film became more than a project — it became an investigation into transparency, accountability, and the cultural forces that shape public perception.In this episode, Sara reflects on the challenges she faced, the unexpected resistance she encountered, and the insights she gained along the way. Join us as she unpacks the complexities of filmmaking, the societal issues intertwined with it, and what she discovered while daring to question the stories we're told.00:00:00 - Introduction00:00:08 - Decision to Make a Documentary00:00:23 - Moving to New York and Starting a Business00:01:20 - Frustration with the Movie Industry00:02:16 - Importance of Safety and Business Ethics00:06:12 - Experience with Workplace Complaints00:07:50 - The Danger of 'I'm Offended'00:09:35 - The Importance of Due Process00:14:04 - Making the Documentary00:15:16 - Exploring the Concept of Love and Hate in Society00:16:17 - Finding a Community of Cuomo Supporters00:16:54 - Social Media Usage and Its Impact00:18:18 - The Decision to Make a Documentary00:20:37 - The Influence of Social Movements and Political Narratives00:22:23 - The Role and Influence of Social Media Platforms00:26:23 - The Importance of Education in Democracy00:26:48 - The Shift from Policy to Personality in PoliticsCheck out Sara's website, where you can learn more about the documentary miniseries and find links to watch it! https://www.thisiswhatnewyorkerssay.com https://www.instagram.com/lasava.alessandrini/

Send us a textIn this episode, we explore one of the most pivotal turning points in Israel's history — the moment they demanded a king. What looked like a political request was actually a spiritual crisis: impatience, fear, conformity, and a refusal to wait on God. We trace Israel's request, God's warning, and the consequences that followed, and we draw out six core lessons for believers today — especially the call to wait on the Lord rather than force His hand. Key Themes: Wanting the right thing at the wrong time The danger of looking at circumstances instead of Scripture What happens when God lets us have our own way The spiritual cost of impatience: "He gave them their request, but sent leanness to their souls" (Ps 106:15) The blessing and strength found in waiting on the Lord Questions for Reflection: Where am I tempted to demand rather than discern? What is one area of life where I need to slow down and wait on God's timing? Am I seeking to be like the world — or to be set apart for God?Support the showTo listen to my monthly church history podcast, subscribe at; https://thehistoryofthechristianchurch.buzzsprout.com For an ad-free version of my podcasts plus the opportunity to enjoy hours of exclusive content and two bonus episodes a month whilst also helping keep the Bible Project Daily Podcast free for listeners everywhere support me at;|PatreonSupport me to continue making great content for listeners everywhere.https://thebibleproject.buzzsprout.com

Christmas is full of lights, lists, and traditions — buthow do we keep our children focused on the real meaning of the season? Today, I'm joined by Pastor Grant Castleberry who serves as pastor at The King's Chapel in Raleigh, NC. He  and his wife GraceAnna are authors, creators, and parents of five — whose mission is to help families reclaim the heart of Christmas. Together they've created a powerful new resource designed to anchor the season in the story of Jesus.In this episode, we talk about how to guide our childrentoward a Christ-centered understanding of Christmas — not just through words, but through intentional family traditions. From daily Scripture rhythms tosimple practices that point little hearts to the manger, we explore practical ways parents can make Jesus the focus of December. The Castleberrys share how their own family traditions were reshaped by their desire to keep Christ at the center — and how every family, regardless of where they're starting, can do the same.We also dive into their new project, “Manger inDanger,” a creative and meaningful alternative to Elf on the Shelf. Packed with Scripture-based devotionals and rooted in the true Christmas story, it offers families a month-long adventure that brings children back to the wonder of Jesus' birth — not the distractions that often crowd Him out.Please Support this Podcast:https://mypillow.com  Promo Code: ROSEhttps://patriotmobile.com/partners/rosewww.americansforprosperity.orghttps://wordmarketingservices.com/Rose's Ministry: www.sheiscalledbyhim.com

Each week at Alderwood Community Church, we open the scriptures and explore what it means to Follow Jesus Together in our everyday lives. In this message, Pastor Wyatt Martin continues our series, David: Light the Flame, A study in 1 and 2 Samuel. Whether you're part of the Alderwood family or joining us from afar, we pray this teaching encourages you to take your next step toward Jesus.  

True love for God is revealed not in emotion, intention, or religious activity—but in obedience. In this episode, we explore the sobering contrast between Jesus' call to keep His words and Saul's tragic downfall in 1 Samuel 15. God desires obedience over sacrifice, and when we choose our way over His, we silence our ability to hear Him clearly. Through Scripture, we uncover how obedience restores intimacy with God, keeps our hearts teachable, and positions us to walk in His will without delay.

In this week's Power Lounge, host Amy Vaughan welcomes Dr. Mara Einstein, an internationally recognized authority on deceptive marketing and author of Hoodwinked: How Marketers Use the Same Tactics as Cults. A former TV and advertising executive turned academic and media ethicist, Dr. Einstein pulls back the curtain on the dark psychology behind consumer manipulation. Together, she and Amy dive into the question: When does persuasion cross the line into indoctrination? Listeners are invited to examine the uncomfortable parallels between cult behavior and brand loyalty—and to confront just how easily marketing can tap into our fears, anxieties, and identities.Drawing from her research and insights featured in the Emmy-winning Netflix documentary Buy Now: The Shopping Conspiracy, Dr. Einstein explains how modern marketing operates within what she calls the “anxiety economy.” From endless doom-scrolling to influencer-driven consumerism, she reveals how technology and advertising combine to keep us hooked, anxious, and buying. The conversation unpacks the continuum between brand fandom and fanaticism, using examples from Apple to Weight Watchers to show how manipulation thrives when emotional needs meet persuasive design.But this isn't a hopeless picture—Dr. Einstein also offers guidance for marketers and consumers alike. She challenges professionals to embrace ethics without sacrificing creativity and encourages all of us to become more conscious of how we engage with brands. By replacing reflexive scrolling with mindful consumption and by choosing community over cultish loyalty, listeners can reclaim agency in an economy built on influence. This episode is a must-hear for anyone who wants to understand—and resist—the subtle ways marketing shapes our thoughts, habits, and values.Chapters:00:00 – Intro & Welcome00:50 – Meet Dr. Mara Einstein02:10 – Why Talk About Cults and Marketing?03:30 – How the Book “Hoodwinked” Began05:10 – The Cult–Marketing Continuum06:45 – From Attention Economy to Anxiety Economy08:50 – How Anxiety Fuels Overconsumption10:25 – “Buy Now” and Viewer Reactions12:30 – Black Friday and the “Economic Blackout”14:10 – Conscious Consumption in a Digital World16:00 – The Line Between Persuasion and Manipulation17:30 – The Genius and Ethics of Duolingo's Campaigns18:45 – When Brand Community Becomes Brand Cult20:15 – Weight Watchers: A Case Study in Cult Tactics27:00 – The Role of Social Media in Modern Tribalism31:30 – Identity and the Brands We Choose37:00 – Ethical Marketing and Real Community41:10 – The Danger of Making It Hard to Leave44:30 – How AI and Bots Change the Deception Game50:00 – Building Awareness and Resilience53:00 – Closing Thoughts & Where to Find Dr. EinsteinQuotes:“We don't live in an attention economy — we live in an anxiety economy. The entire system is built to keep us just uncomfortable enough that buying something feels like relief.” - Mara Einstein“It's funny — we call it doom scrolling, and yet we treat it like self-care. The truth is, it's winding us up, not calming us down.” - Amy VaughanKey Takeaways:Anxiety, not attention, drives modern marketing.Persuasion turns toxic when it exploits fear.Brand loyalty can slide into cult behavior.Algorithms feed anxiety for engagement.We shop to soothe stress, not need.Ethical marketing connects, not controls.AI blurs truth and manipulation.Brands now shape personal identity.Awareness breaks the consumer cycle.Conscious choices beat compulsive clicks.Connect with Dr. MaSupport the show

The internet won't stop screaming “Housing crash! 2008 again! Get ready!” But what if the entire conversation is upside-down? In this episode, I sit down with George Ellison — the guy who sold a 15,000-home REIT for billions — to break down the truth behind today's market. And trust me… this story is nothing like the doomsday crowd wants it to be. If you want to invest like the pros instead of guessing like the rest of the internet, check out George's platform → https://www.propbee.com/They basically built the institutional toolkit for normal people. George walks me through the day his $2.5B deal collapsed in April 2020, why Wall Street predicted 80% of his tenants would stop paying rent, and how the real number ended up being 3%. Then he explains why the fundamentals today look nothing like 2008, why Warren Buffett is quietly loading up, and why high rates have actually created the best setup for buyers we've seen in years. If you want to understand the market instead of getting played by the headlines, this is the episode you listen to. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

In May of 2002, a St. Louis reporter received a letter with a map marked with an X and a chilling message: "To prove I'm real, here's directions to number seventeen." The map leads police to a body. And one digital mistake exposed a killer's darkest secrets. Between 2000 and 2002, at least twelve women vanished from the streets of St. Louis, their deaths barely noticed by a society that had already dismissed them. What investigators found in a suburban basement would out one of the most disturbing serial killers in American history.Sources:https://www.stltoday.com/ (Main site - archival articles from 2002)https://www.nytimes.com/2002/06/11/us/internet-used-to-find-man-who-is-charged-in-2-of-10-killings.htmlhttps://www.latimes.com/archives/la-xpm-2002-jun-17-na-serial17-story.htmlhttps://abcnews.go.com/Primetime/story?id=132005&page=1 (Serial Killer's Home Movies)https://abcnews.go.com/US/woman-found-serial-killer-lived-home-watching-tv/story?id=24467447https://www.bnd.com/news/local/crime/article311186715.htmlhttps://fox2now.com/news/true-crime/serial-killer-maury-travis-the-street-walker-strangler/https://www.semissourian.com/story/77256.htmlForensic Files: "X Marks the Spot" (Season 7, Episode 35) - Available on streaming platformsCold Case Files: "A Map to Murder" (Season 2, Episode 19) - Originally aired on A&EEvil, I: "Hell's Basement" episodeUnknown Serial Killers of America (2025)https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maury_Travishttps://web.archive.org/web/20120509185024/http://www.trutv.com/library/crime/criminal_mind/forensics/vernon_geberth/12.htmlhttps://www.fbi.gov/https://isp.illinois.gov/https://www.slmpd.org/https://nij.ojp.gov/topics/forensics/digital-evidencehttps://dnadoeproject.org/Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/reverie-true-crime--4442888/support.Keep In Touch:Twitter: https://www.twitter.com/reveriecrimepodInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/reverietruecrimeTumblr: https://reverietruecrimepodcast.tumblr.comFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/reverietruecrimeContact: ReverieTrueCrime@gmail.com Intro & Outro by Jahred Gomes: https://www.instagram.com/jahredgomes_official 

Send us a textGUEST: ALEX NEWMAN, president, Liberty Sentinel MediaIt's America's largest and most well-known city. It's the financial center of the country and even the world for free markets. Twenty-four years ago, the most prominent buildings in the city—the World Trade Center—crumbled to the ground after Islamists hijacked commercial airplanes and flew them into the buildings, causing nearly 3000 deaths.So how to explain that New York City just elected a Muslim socialist to be its mayor?Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani is not moderate. He is anti-Israel at his core. And he's anti-American—he is a self-identifying member of the Democratic Socialists of America, which opposes traditional American values of limited government, individual liberties, and free markets. In short, Mamdani is the personification of the “Red-Green Alliance,” the intersectional partnership of Communists and Islamists with the common goal of toppling America and Christianity.The left won almost everywhere in the first election since President Trump entered the White House this past January. Virginians voted for a Democrat super-majority in their state. Seattle elected a Democrat Socialist for mayor and Minneapolis nearly did as well.In a recent program, we discussed the rise of Islam in Western Europe and how the line may have been crossed for an Islamic future. But is the same thing happening in America, in places like New York City, Dearborn, Michigan, Minneapolis, and in Texas, where a large Islamic development is being proposed near Dallas?Alex Newman, Christian author and journalist at Liberty Sentinel Media, joins us this weekend on The Christian Worldview to discuss the rise of Islam in America and why it needs to be stopped. He will also discuss other events nationally and abroad, including the rise in political violence on the left and anti-Israel sentiment on the right.----------------------Manger in Danger for a donation for $30 or more - A new family Christmas tradition!
