In Part Two of this extraordinary conversation between The Integrated Podcast host, Diana Romero, and her guest, Iris Thompson, Iris shares the breathtaking continuation of her journey, from merely existing to fully awakening in purpose, passion, and spiritual authority. After years of isolation, darkness, and depression, God begins restoring Iris one step at a time through obedience, community, worship, fasting, and a single Word that pierced her heart: "There is MORE." What starts as helping her son with spreadsheets becomes the spark that reawakens her mind. What follows is a divine acceleration, reconnection with family, renewed hunger for the Word, a God-ordained fast, and an unmistakable call back into intimacy with Him. This episode is rich with:

What happens when college sports operate without anyone truly in charge?Exactly what you're seeing now.In this episode of Just Wondering with Norm Hitzges, Norm Hitzges takes on two developments that point to a looming breakdown in college athletics — and neither one has a clean solution.Norm begins with a court ruling involving former Alabama basketball player Charles Bediako, who declared for the NBA Draft, went undrafted, played professionally, and is now seeking to return to college basketball. A judge has temporarily ruled that the NCAA cannot stop him. Norm explains why this isn't just about one player — it's about the precedent. If this door stays open, what stops waves of undrafted football and basketball players from attempting pro careers, failing, and then pouring back into college sports with eligibility intact?From there, Norm pivots to college football's playoff mess. Despite widespread agreement that a 16-team playoff would have fixed most of this year's problems, the SEC and Big Ten failed — again — to reach consensus. Instead, financial motivations, conference power plays, and a proposed 24-team playoff loaded with byes killed progress. The result: a flawed 12-team system that left deserving programs out while frustrating fans who just want fairness and clarity.Throughout the episode, Norm returns to one central theme: the NCAA is powerless, university presidents won't act, and conferences are chasing money at the expense of the sport itself. When no one's willing to lead, chaos isn't a surprise — it's the outcome.Chapters00:00:00 – Just wondering about chaos coming to college sports00:01:38 – The Charles Bediako case and a dangerous precedent00:02:23 – Declaring for the NBA too early — and wanting back in00:03:12 – A judge says the NCAA can't stop it00:04:00 – What happens if this ruling holds00:05:00 – Undrafted players returning to college football00:05:58 – “We are talking chaos here”00:06:57 – The NCAA as a toothless tiger00:07:48 – Sponsor break: Bob's Steak & Chop House00:08:25 – Full Moon Healing Balm and aging realities00:09:10 – Why this year's College Football Playoff failed00:10:11 – Why a 16-team playoff made sense00:11:20 – The Big Ten's 24-team proposal and money motives00:12:20 – Why 24 teams is “way too clumsy”00:13:16 – Deadlines missed and progress stalled00:14:03 – Remembering the four-team playoff disaster00:14:52 – Power brokers vs. fans and the sport itself00:15:16 – Sponsors and closing thoughts00:16:08 – Final sign-offCheck us out: patreon.com/sunsetloungedfwInstagram: sunsetloungedfwTiktok: sunsetloungedfwX: SunsetLoungeDFWFB: Sunset Lounge DFW

One of America's best defense attorneys just made the most unusual exit in recent legal memory. Alan Jackson told the court he was "legally and ethically prohibited" from continuing to represent Nick Reiner. Then he walked outside and told reporters: "Pursuant to the law in California, Nick Reiner is not guilty of murder." What circumstances force an attorney to withdraw while simultaneously staking his professional reputation on his client's innocence?The clues are buried in sealed documents. A confidential medical order. Ten subpoenas prosecutors aren't allowed to see. Three weeks of investigation that changed Jackson's entire approach—then ended with him handing the case to Deputy Public Defender Kimberly Greene.Nick faces death-eligible charges: two counts of first-degree murder with special circumstances. Sources confirm he was being treated for schizophrenia when his mother Michele Reiner and her partner were killed. He appeared in court wearing a suicide prevention smock. His medications reportedly aren't stabilized. At what point does mental health history become a formal competency challenge?Attorney Eric Faddis examines the evidence that's emerged—including gas station surveillance showing Nick calmly purchasing a drink hours after the murders. Prosecution sees consciousness of guilt. A defense signaling insanity sees something different entirely. Eric breaks down how both sides would use that footage, what Jackson's withdrawal signals about the defense strategy, and why DA Nathan Hochman remains "fully confident" in pursuing conviction despite everything.The arraignment is February 23rd. The sealed evidence remains locked. And Alan Jackson's public declaration hangs over this case like an unanswered question nobody in the courthouse is allowed to address.#NickReiner #AlanJackson #RobReiner #MicheleReiner #InsanityDefense #SealedEvidence #EricFaddis #TrueCrime #HiddenKillers #CaliforniaCourtsJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Democratic Senator Mark Kelly is fighting a legal battle against attempts to punish him for his warnings about illegal orders.

God's goodness is constant; there is no variation with Him. As children of a good God, we should have no problem declaring His goodness in every area of our lives. Join us as we continue our series, Declaring the Goodness of God.

What does it feel like to be approved of? To have someone you respect acknowledge you publicly as someone they are proud of. That can be extremely meaningful! In fact, many of us have walked through life longing for that very experience, and even comprising ourselves in attempts to gain it. The difficulty of all this is that we already have the thing we long for. Approval, acceptance, and love… it’s all found in Jesus if we just are willing to look to Him for it! Jesus received the public approval of His Father in heaven as He was baptized by John the Baptist. This would have been a joyous moment for Jesus, and encouraging to continue walking in obedience to a baptism of suffering that was still ahead of Him. His baptism was one of declaration instead of repentance. Declaring His approval of John’s ministry. Declaring the connection He has with the people around Him also being baptized. The Father and Spirit declaring the identity of the Son in perfect unity. What a beautiful display of God’s plan in motion! For us the question becomes how can we follow the example and call of Jesus? What does it look like to find our approval in Him? Join us Sunday as we dive into His word to see what He has to say about all of this! - Pastor Ben For this week's Scripture and notes: http://bible.com/events/49543681

Carl and Mike get back to Falcons talk as they continue to share more thoughts on Arthur Blank's press conference in which he addressed the firing of Raheem Morris being a full season evaluation and consulting firm saying there was lack of countability and poor communication within the organization. They also discuss Blank stating he believes in Michael Penix Jr. still being their franchise QB.

Donald Trump's refusal to walk back his regime-change rhetoric on Venezuela has now reignited international concern—this time over Greenland. Declaring that the United States needs Greenland “very badly,” Trump's remarks have intensified fears of a potential American move against the Arctic territory. Greenland is largely self-governing but remains part of the Danish kingdom, with Copenhagen responsible for defence and foreign policy. Denmark's prime minister, Mette Frederiksen, responded with an unusually blunt warning, stating that any US military action against Greenland would amount to an attack on a NATO ally—and could shatter the post-World War II global security order, which Stephen Miller seeks to disrupt at every juncture.

SEASON 4 EPISODE 46: COUNTDOWN WITH KEITH OLBERMANN A-Block (2:30) SPECIAL COMMENT: Well, that's it in sum, isn't it? He's "El Presidente" now, isn't he? Military Dictator. Succeeding Maduro. Until he finds somebody else to “run” it. Not the elected Vice President. Not the actual winner of the last election. Not the U-N. Maybe somebody he, in his dysfunctional haze, somebody he can trust. Maybe an oil executive. Or Elon Musk. Or Catturd. The invasion was illegal there, and illegal here. The kidnapping was illegal. Declaring we would run it is illegal. Naming a proxy dictator is illegal. As was his threat yesterday to the acting president that quote “if she doesn’t do what’s right, she is going to pay a very big price, probably bigger than Maduro” and calling for her belief that her country shouldn’t be invaded by another country breaking its own laws is quote “defiant rejection.” THAT’S illegal. It’s all illegal. That’s a lot of illegal – even for Trump. And I say this, hating Maduro completely. So he needs to be impeached, if not now then a year from now. Rubio can be impeached now for deceiving Congress about its approval. And both of them turned over to the World Court. And the ramifications are almost uncountable, including emboldening them to consider this in Cuba, Greenland, Iran. The poll numbers are terrible, and the risk to Americans of terrorism and violence are just as terrible. And maybe worst of all the evidence of linkage between Putin's strange silence about his ally Maduro, and Trump's dithering about Ukraine, is terrible too. But at least it produced a pretty good Olivia Nuzzi joke. ALSO: WHY DID THEY CHANGE THE TRUMP HEALTH COVER-UP STORY AGAIN? Five significant changes, about his MRI/CT, his cardiovascular health, and now the total of Cognitive tests he's gotten in just the last nine months. Three? Not two? He's really needed three tests in nine months? To repeat the insightful question from his niece Mary Trump: Why do they have to keep giving him cognitive tests? B-Block (40:00) THE WORST PERSONS IN THE WORLD: There's begging the new boss to let you keep your current job, then there's what CBS Legal Analyst Jan Crawford is doing for Bari Weiss to try to keep hers. Chuck Schumer comes out firing on Venezuela: with one-millionth of one barrel blazing. And just when you think Cheryl Hines can't get any dumber, Tucker Carlson tries to talk to her about vaccines. C-Block (50:00) THINGS I PROMISED NOT TO TELL: Will Ferrell did a great comedy bit at the L.A. Kings hockey game on New Year's Day and he did it for the pure joy of it. Which reminded me of the difference between amateurs and pros, and of the days when "Anchorman" was new and Will and I ad libbed a pretty good comedy bit that he said he really loved doing.

Join Dr. Marcus Brown as we wrap up our Believe series out of the gospel of Luke.

Our theme for The Connection Church in 2025, was to "stop & listen." This year, the Lord is telling us to declare His goodness in every area of our lives. Declaring the goodness of God begins with an understanding that God is indeed good! Psalm 107:1 says, “Oh, give thanks to the LORD, for He is good! For His mercy endures forever.”

GET YOUR TICKETS NOW! THRIVE in 2026 - Women's Event: https://www.youaremore.com Hey guys — welcome to 2026.I don't know about you, but something about this year feels different to me. Not just another fresh start… but a moment. A line in the sand. A decision point.So today, I want to ask you a simple but powerful question:What does December 2026 need to look like for you to honestly say, “Wow… that was the most epic year of my life”?Because here's the truth — I've asked myself that question for the last few years. And if I'm being completely honest? While there was growth… while there was movement… I didn't accomplish what I knew I was capable of.And I had to get real with myself.This episode is about what it's actually going to take to possess — not wish for — your dreams in 2026.I talk about why hoping isn't enough anymore. Why vision without action leads to frustration. And why this year is going to require radical commitment, not comfort.We talk about:Why you must see the vision, not casually think about itWhy clarity creates movement — and confusion keeps you stuckWhy continuing the same thoughts and habits guarantees the same lifeHow comfort, certainty, and growth are constantly in tensionWhy your kids don't just need your words — they need your exampleHow stacking small wins creates momentum that changes everythingI also share personal stories — from watching my dad work third shift while building a business, to realizing how fast time moves when my kids just turned 11.This is not about hustling harder.This is about deciding — once and for all — that you are done pushing your dreams down the road.2026 doesn't need to be louder.It needs to be intentional.If you've felt emotionally thin… worn out… or like the last season took more than it gave — you are not alone. But this year can be different.And it starts with a decision.

Share a commentThe hush before the first carol was not empty—it was charged. We step into the holy place with Zacharias, incense curling upward, when Gabriel appears and declares that the long night is ending. This is where Christmas begins: with a promise spoken into fear, a calling placed on an aging couple, and the first shockwave of good news that will roll from a quiet temple to a manger and beyond.We walk through the world of Herod's Judea and the deep ache of barrenness that marked Zacharias and Elizabeth, showing how faith endures when culture misreads suffering. Then the scene opens: a once-in-a-lifetime priestly duty, a famous messenger blazing with authority, and a message rooted in Malachi's prophecy. Their son will prepare the people, turn hearts, and ready a nation for the Messiah. Along the way, we explore why angels matter without making them the main act—how Scripture positions them as servants of God's redemptive plan and why the first New Testament use of “good news” comes from an angelic voice.Doubt doesn't disqualify; it gets refined. Zacharias asks for proof, and Gabriel answers with presence: I stand in the presence of God. The sign is silence—hard, humbling, and holy—until promise becomes reality. When John is born, the sunrise from on high is named and the dawn truly breaks.

We step into the holy place with Zacharias, incense curling upward, when Gabriel appears and declares that the long night is ending. This is where Christmas begins: with a promise spoken into fear, a calling placed on an aging couple, and the first shockwave of good news that will roll from a quiet temple to a manger and beyond.We walk through the world of Herod's Judea and the deep ache of barrenness that marked Zacharias and Elizabeth, showing how faith endures when culture misreads suffering. Then the scene opens: a once-in-a-lifetime priestly duty, a famous messenger blazing with authority, and a message rooted in Malachi's prophecy. Their son will prepare the people, turn hearts, and ready a nation for the Messiah. Along the way, we explore why angels matter without making them the main act—how Scripture positions them as servants of God's redemptive plan and why the first New Testament use of “good news” comes from an angelic voice.Doubt doesn't disqualify; it gets refined. Zacharias asks for proof, and Gabriel answers with presence: I stand in the presence of God. The sign is silence—hard, humbling, and holy—until promise becomes reality. When John is born, the sunrise from on high is named and the dawn truly breaks.

France’s ambassador to Israel Frédéric Journès said on the Haaretz Podcast that any postwar Gaza plan must acknowledge that completely disarming and ridding the Strip of Hamas militia members is not an achievable goal. “You're not going to eliminate all of those people, so you basically need to find them a job in local police, find them a little job in society and de-radicalize them to the greatest extent possible,” he contended. This is possible, he said, because over the course of the war, Israel “got rid of the leadership." Journès, who has been France’s envoy to Israel since July 2023, sat down for a wide-ranging interview with host Allison Kaplan Sommer and Haaretz diplomatic correspondent Liza Rozovsky, discussing Gaza, Lebanon, Iran and antisemitism in France. The ambassador also explains why he believes the four countries strengthened by the past two years of war are Israel, Saudi Arabia, Turkey and Egypt. Pressed on the podcast as to whether he supports renewing strikes on Iran aimed at its ballistic missile program, which Israel reportedly desires, Journès replied, “I'm not saying that. I will see what will happen.” Read more: Opinion by Frédéric Journès | Declaring a Palestinian State Is a Blow to Terror Opinion by Frédéric Journès | Israel, Help Us Protect Our Seas and Oceans U.S. Leaning Toward Setting Up Palestinian-run Regime for Gaza Before International Forces Saudi, French and U.S. Officials Discuss Hezbollah Disarmament With Lebanese Army Chief France Demands Heightened Security Measures at French Consulate in Jerusalem After Israeli MKs Harass StafferSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

From crime-solving in a surveillance state to unanswered questions in the Brown University shooting — and then straight into the bombshell revelations surrounding the Mar-a-Lago raid — Tara connects the dots others won't. This episode explores how technology can both deliver justice and enable abuse, why delayed investigations matter, and how a single uncorroborated accusation became grounds for federal raids. The stakes? Nothing less than due process in America.

As we head into a new year, Chris and Melissa wanted to revisit a conversation that has quietly shaped their family more than almost anything else: the power of language. This idea — that language creates — was one of the very first topics ever discussed on The Family Brand Podcast, and it's still one of the most talked-about episodes to this day. Because once you see it, you can't unsee it. In this episode, Chris explains why language is never neutral. The words we use are either rooted in possibility or anchored in limitation — and over time, they shape our beliefs, our behaviors, our marriages, our kids, and even what we believe is possible for our lives. Melissa shares real-life moments where she's seen language create identity — including a powerful story about how a single sentence labeled one of their children as "shy," and how quickly that label became part of his self-story. Together, they unpack how easily we talk ourselves out of what we want by using phrases like "I should," "I need to," or "that could never work." They also explore how we often spend far more energy talking about what we don't want, don't like, don't have, or what isn't working — and how simply shifting our language can begin to change how life occurs for us. From an Uber conversation about health, to a heartbreaking post about a mother who hadn't seen her daughter in 14 years, this episode brings the concept of language into everyday life. This isn't about toxic positivity or pretending things are perfect. It's about awareness. It's about noticing the words you use — with yourself, with your spouse, and with your kids — and asking whether they're creating freedom or reinforcing fear. As Chris says, "If you upgrade your language, you upgrade your life." And as a family, that's a powerful place to start.   LINKS: All Links Family Brand!  stan.store/familybrand familybrand.com/quiz familybrand.com/retreats.  Episode Minute By Minute: 00:00 – Holiday season, basketball season, and family life right now 01:45 – Why this conversation matters heading into a new year 02:30 – Revisiting one of the most impactful Family Brand episodes ever 03:10 – "Language creates" — what that actually means 04:10 – Words create either possibility or limitation 05:10 – How language shapes the culture of your home 06:00 – The Uber story: "I should go to the gym" 07:40 – Anchored in limitation vs. rooted in possibility 08:40 – Why guilt and shame don't create change 10:10 – The four language traps: don't want, don't have, don't like, isn't working 11:30 – Shifting energy toward what does work 13:10 – A heartbreaking story about language and impossibility 15:00 – Declaring what you want — then ripping the seed out 16:30 – Why staying limited feels safer than change 18:20 – Language creates identity (the "shy" story) 20:00 – How parents unintentionally label their kids 21:45 – Upgrading language without guilt or pressure 23:10 – Social media, negativity, and reinforcing limitation 24:30 – A simple experiment: change your language for one week 25:45 – Helping your kids shift language without correcting them 26:45 – Final takeaway: talk about what works 27:20 – Family Brand Quiz + free PDF invitation

Chamberlain's Progressive Presidency at Bowdoin College — Ronald White — Chamberlain returned to Bowdoin College as president, respected by figures like Ulysses S. Grant. He immediately advocated for bold institutional changes, declaring the college had "touched bottom."

Despite administrative pressures, he remained a highly sought-after and eloquent public speaker.

Bible StudyDon't just take our word for it . . . take His! We would encourage you to spend time examining the following Scriptures that shaped this sermon: Sermon Notes:1. Worship Is HistoricalExodus 15:1 — Israel sings about God's real rescue at the Red Sea.Christian worship responds to God's real acts—especially the Cross and Resurrection.Without real saving events, worship has no foundation.2. Worship Is PersonalExodus 15:2 — “The LORD is my strength… my salvation.”Salvation must be personally received.Personal worship fuels corporate worship.In seasons of grief or shame, others can “hold” our worship for us.3. Worship Is DeclarativeExodus 15:11 — declaring who God is: holy, majestic, powerful.Declaring truth reorients our hearts, deepens our joy, and functions as spiritual warfare (2 Chronicles 20).4. Worship Is BeautifulExodus 15 is a song—with poetry, rhythm, and movement.God uses beauty, music, and art to reach deep places in us.Worship leaders help communicate God's beauty, not perform.ConclusionWorship is historical, personal, declarative, and beautiful.Worship steadies us when life spins around us.It trains us for our eternal vocation: worshiping the Lord in Spirit and truth.Discussion Questions:If you don't believe all the stories in the Bible, can you still worship God?Is quiet meditation or practicing mindfulness a form of worship? Why or why not?Does it matter that we worship corporately? Is private personal worship just as good?Can we still worship if we feel spiritually dry? What is the place of the emotions in worship?Can you share about a time when "personal pain robbed your perspective but worship restored it"?Questions?Do you have a question about today's sermon?

In this episode, Artist Mindi Oaten shares about her collection,” Garments of Praise: Mantled to Reign.” The collection draws its inspiration from the rainbow and Mindi shares the heart behind it all at a prior Entourage Ministries event. This collection expresses a bright, new season for the bride of Christ; to come up higher, to shine and reflect God's glory, in the midst of darkness. To rule and reign with Him. To throw off the grave clothes and be mantled with the garment of praise, fully embracing our purpose and new assignments on the earth. Declaring heavens glorious colors in unity, like a rainbow after a storm. Making herself ready.... Isaiah 61:1-3 1 The Spirit of the Sovereign Lord is on me, because the Lord has anointed me to proclaim good news to the poor. He has sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim freedom for the captives and release from darkness for the prisoners, 2 to proclaim the year of the Lord's favor and the day of vengeance of our God, to comfort all who mourn, 3 and provide for those who grieve in Zion—to bestow on them a crown of beauty instead of ashes, the oil of joy instead of mourning, and a garment of praise..."

Declaring Spiritual War, Part 2  by Lynda Renne In this powerful episode, Lynda Renne unpacks how to defeat the enemy in the night seasons of our lives—the hidden battles, the dark valleys, and the moments when the enemy seeks to strike hardest. She teaches that our victory is secured through three core weapons: the Blood of Jesus, the spiritual authority God has given us, and the fervent, faith-filled prayers that push back darkness. These form Heaven's strategy for declaring war on the enemy and dismantling his assignments. Lynda emphasizes that God is raising up a Bride who knows her authority, stands firm in her identity, and wages spiritual warfare with confidence and clarity. Blessings!Sanctioned Lovesanctionedlove.com

World War II, the largest and deadliest conflict in human history, began on September 1, 1939, when Nazi Germany invaded Poland. Adolf Hitler dreamed of uniting Europe and establishing an empire that would rule the world for a thousand years. Yet he could have spared himself and his people immense suffering if he had only paid attention to an extraordinary prophecy written by the Bible prophet Daniel more than 2,500 years earlier. Sadly, Hitler rejected the Bible and its prophecies, convinced instead that his armies could conquer Europe and the world. In March 1941, he delivered a powerful speech to the German people, one that revealed his pride, his ambition, and his fatal disregard for divine warning. Declaring defiantly, Hitler said, “See, my people, we do not need anything from God! We do not ask anything from Him except that He may let us alone. We want to fight our own war, with our own guns, without God. We want to gain our victory without the help of God.”In this program, we'll take a closer look at King Nebuchadnezzar's dream found in Daniel 2, a prophecy that mapped out the course of world history, explains why European leaders such as Charlemagne, Charles V, Louis XIV, Napoleon, Kaiser Wilhelm II, and Hitler all failed to unite Europe, and reveals what is still to come in the future.

In this episode, we perceive the reasons outlined for a person’s course of action, as depicted in Sangam Literary work, Aganaanooru 129, penned by Kudavayil Keeraththanaar. Set in the ‘Paalai’ or ‘Drylands landscape’, the verse portrays various scenes in this harsh domain. ”உள்ளல் வேண்டும் ஒழிந்த பின்” எனநள்ளென் கங்குல் நடுங்கு துணை ஆயவர்நின் மறந்து உறைதல் யாவது? ”புல் மறைந்துஅலங்கல் வான் கழை உதிர்நெல் நோக்கி,கலை பிணை விளிக்கும் கானத்து ஆங்கண்,கல் சேர்பு இருந்த கதுவாய்க் குரம்பைத்தாழிமுதற் கலித்த கோழிலைப் பருத்திப்பொதி வயிற்று இளங் காய் பேடை ஊட்டி,போகில் பிளந்திட்ட பொங்கல் வெண் காழ்நல்கூர் பெண்டிர் அல்கற் கூட்டும்கலங்குமுனைச் சீறூர் கை தலைவைப்ப,கொழுப்பு ஆ தின்ற கூர்ம் படை மழவர்,செருப்புடை அடியர், தெண் சுனை மண்டும்அருஞ் சுரம் அரியஅல்ல; வார் கோல்திருந்து இழைப் பணைத் தோள், தேன் நாறு கதுப்பின்,குவளை உண்கண், இவளொடு செலற்கு” எனநெஞ்சு வாய் அவிழ்ந்தனர் காதலர்அம் சில் ஓதி ஆயிழை! நமக்கே. Back to the drylands and we get to meet the people and animals inhabiting this space, as we listen to the confidante render these words to the lady, as the man continues to remain parted away, after leaving in search of wealth: “Declaring with anxiety, ‘I will surely end up thinking with lament, about her after parting away', the one who was your companion in the darkness of the night trembled. As the grass was left no more, looking at the shed grains of the swaying bamboo, the male deer calls out to its female in the jungle, where in a dilapidated hut, amidst a rocky surrounding, near a big urn, the thick-leaved cotton plant flourishes. Taking the unripe fruit of the cotton plant, with a bulging belly, a bird splits it open to feed its mate, and throws the furry white seeds, which are collected by impoverished women, to be eaten later, in that little hamlet, near a raging battlefield. Making this hamlet shout out in alarm, robbers, wearing footwear and holding sharp spears, steal and feed on their fat cows and drink from the clear springs in the formidable wastelands. 'Such places are harsh for the maiden, wearing neat rows of well-etched ornaments, having bamboo-like arms, honey-fragrant tresses, and kohl-streaked eyes, akin to blue lilies, to traverse with me', your lover had said, expressing the truth in his heart to us, O maiden wearing exquisite ornaments and having beautiful, soft hair. How is it possible for him to forget you and stay away?” Time to brave the dangers of the drylands and explore more! The confidante starts by recollecting the words the man said before he left predicting that for sure he’s going to think about the lady and worry endlessly after he leaves. This is followed by a lengthy description of the drylands, where first we see a male deer calling out to its mate the moment it glimpses a few shed grains of the swaying bamboo, as there’s no more grass left for them to graze on. Then the focus shifts to a broken-down old hut, in a rocky space, where a cotton plant is sprouting near an urn, and a bird nabs the unripe fruit, pecks it open and feeds its mate, throwing away the white seeds. These are then collected by poor women, who have nothing else to eat in that little hamlet, which is in such a ruined state, because it’s just seen a battle break out near it. The troubles of this hamlet are not over, and any people left behind are left to scream in agony by the robbers, who come there to steal the cattle and feed on its meat, and then drink up cool waters. Two interesting facts are mentioned about this ancient tribe of people, in that they used to eat the meat of cattle, and two, their footwear is pointedly referred to, telling us that this is no commonplace occurrence. Perhaps it was an object of necessity for these robbers, when traversing those dry and harsh wastelands! Returning, we find the confidante revealing that it was the man, who has been narrating this long description of the drylands space, only to say such a domain would be hard for the delicate lady to cross along with him. She then concludes with the pointed question as to how the man, who had thought with so much care and concern, for the lady, could possibly stay away without returning. Words of consolation from this darling friend again! The subtle highlight in this narrative appears in how, be it in the depiction of the deer calling its doe or the bird feeding its hen, the care of the male towards its mate shines so brightly, letting the confidante dip her brush in the hues of these expressions, and paint the streaks of the man’s love and care on the lady’s heart! 

On this episode of Christopher Lochhead: Follow Your Different, Christopher yielded his host chair as he joined Tom Schwab in The Podcast Interview Marketing Show to discuss the rise of the Creator Capitalist. Through their dialogue, Christopher Lochhead and Tom Schwab explored why the foundational model of “knowledge work” is swiftly becoming obsolete in the age of artificial intelligence. More importantly, they charted a path forward for professionals and entrepreneurs seeking to not just survive but thrive by transitioning from knowledge workers to what Lochhead calls “creator capitalists.” This episode unpacked how AI is upending the value of existing knowledge, why declaring and differentiating your value matters more than ever, and how podcasts exemplify and enable the new rules for standing out in a commoditized world. You're listening to Christopher Lochhead: Follow Your Different. We are the real dialogue podcast for people with a different mind. So get your mind in a different place, and hey ho, let's go.   AI and the Death of the Knowledge Worker A core theme throughout the conversation is Lochhead's assertion that the traditional knowledge worker is now on an “already dead” trajectory. Echoing Peter Drucker's concept from seventy years ago, Lochhead dissected the evolution of knowledge work: those who acquire valuable knowledge and are paid to apply it to achieve outcomes. For decades, professions like law, medicine, and accounting thrived on this value proposition. But as Lochhead put it, “AI makes the value of existing knowledge closer to zero every day, and it makes the ability to apply existing knowledge easier, cheaper, and closer to zero.” As machine learning and generative AI like ChatGPT and Claude can instantly synthesize and apply troves of information, merely applying knowledge is no longer a competitive edge. In Lochhead's words, “If you rely solely on applying existing knowledge to get paid, you're already behind the curve.” The world's next wave of success stories won't be those who can recite best practices or historical information; instead, it'll be pioneers who create entirely new categories, products, and perspectives.   Declaring and Defending Your Value in a Commoditized Marketplace This paradigm shift has profound implications for how expertise and content are valued. Schwab and Lochhead explore the necessity, not just of creating new value, but of unmistakably declaring it to the market. Lochhead's release of his book “Lightning Strike Marketing”—priced defiantly at $100—became a case in point. The rationale wasn't greed, but a strategic effort to defend the book's value and signal that it's not merely recycled or commoditized information. Lochhead observed, “Unless you declare you are valuable, you will be devalued by AI.” The traditional model, where business books have hovered at the $25 mark for decades, fails to align pricing with the value delivered and only invites further commoditization. By staking out a bold price point, the book became a "lightning strike" in its own right. The move generated word of mouth, forced a choice for buyers, and ultimately achieved bestseller status on Amazon for global marketing books. At the heart, the message is clear: creators who want to lead must not only generate differentiated intellectual property but stand firm against the eroding forces of commoditization. “Better invites a comparison; different forces a choice,” Lochhead added, marking the essential blueprint for becoming a category of one.   Podcasts and Category Design: The New Playground for Net New Value A recurring motif, interwoven through both Christopher Lochhead's and Tom Schwab's journeys, is the unique power of podcasts as both a proving ground for new ideas and a channel for building “relationship and reputation capital.” In contrast to AI-generated summaries or formulaic blog posts, podcasts uniquely foster authentic, serendipitous dialogue between real human beings.
