Hamas Delays Hostage Releases and Hezbollah-Iran Funding Guest: Sarit Zehavi Sarit Zehavi reports that Hamas is deliberately slowing hostage releases and breaking the ceasefire to regain control and avoid being dismantled, as promised by the agreement. She states that Hezbollah is primarily funded by Iran, while Hamas is largely funded by Qatar. Israel's new security strategy involves maintaining strategic buffer zones, including nine military positions in Syria and control of five hills in Lebanon, to physically protect Israeli civilians from hostile groups. 1922 GAZA
Hamas Violates Ceasefire and Maintains Political Control Guest: Jonathan Conricus Jonathan Conricus states that Hamas is systematically violating the ceasefire, deliberately stalling the release of hostages' bodies to maintain political leverage against Israel. Hamas is internally working to settle scores and communicate that they are "here to stay" as a governing force. Conricus notes that the release of nearly 2,000 Palestinian terrorists, including experienced operatives, significantly increases the likelihood that they will eventually resume terror activities.
Gaza Conflict Persists and Iran's Nuclear Threat Revived Guest: Jonathan Schanzer Jonathan Schanzer confirms the Gaza conflict continues unabated, with Israel responding to ongoing Hamas attacks while Hamas deliberately slow-rolls hostage returns to maintain negotiating leverage. Hamas's fighting force is now commanded by inexperienced officers and young combatants operating in shrinking territory with diminishing resources. Schanzer also addresses alarming reports that Iran is rebuilding a suspect nuclear enrichment site, underscoring that maintaining peace requires constant vigilance and sustained pressure against malevolent actors determined to destabilize the region. 1965 GAZA

In May 2022, 27-year-old Travis Ray Thompson was caring for his ex-girlfriend's two-year-old daughter, Jacklyn Schwingel, when he called to say something was wrong. Minutes later, Jacklyn was found unresponsive — her spine severed and body showing signs of brutal force. Emma Kenny examines how anger, control, and heartbreak turned deadly in this harrowing case.
In onze samenleving ligt de nadruk op het opdoen van kennis. Hoe meer kennis, hoe beter, lijkt het devies. Daarmee gaan we voorbij aan het feit dat we er soms bewust voor kiezen om beschikbare informatie niet te hebben. Zo willen we de uitslag van een wedstrijd niet weten als we die op een later moment terugkijken en vraagt ook niet iedereen de uitslag van een medische test op. Wat zijn redenen om informatie niet te willen hebben? Is dit bewust negeren van informatie ethisch? En (hoe) kunnen we bewust negeren verklaren en voorspellen? Je hoort het in deze aflevering van Drang Naar Samenhang. Ps.

Gaza Ceasefire and Regional Instability in the Middle East Jonathan Schanzer, Foundation for Defense of Democracies, with John Batchelor Schanzer analyzes the Gaza ceasefire, noting Hamas is deliberately slow-rolling the return of bodies to maintain leverage. New regional tensions are rising, including reports of Egypt moving aggressive offensive weapons into the Sinai and Turkey calling for a pan-Islamic offensive against Israel. Schanzer notes that internal power struggles between tribes and a weakening Hamas could lead to political fragmentation in Gaza. 1922

Something is coming: https://lectern.johnvervaeke.com/p/whatnext What if mastery isn't about perfection—but about transformation? In this episode of The Lectern, John Vervaeke is joined by Ethan Hsieh to explore how the cultivation of virtuosity—typically associated with the arts—can become central to philosophical and existential growth. Ethan introduces his Tiamat process, a three-tier developmental framework integrating performance training, cognitive science, and dialogical practice. Together, they explore what it means to live a deliberately developmental life, moving beyond therapy into embodied transformation. Ethan draws from his background in acting, pedagogy, and philosophy to offer a new model of self-cultivation rooted in agency, feedback, metacognition, and trust. Ethan Hsieh is a facilitator, educator, and philosophical practitioner whose work bridges performance, cognition, and transformative pedagogy. As the creator of the Tiamat process, he integrates insights from embodied practice, developmental psychology, and dialogical philosophy to help individuals cultivate virtuosity as a way of life. Ethan is also a co-founder of Five to Midnight, a community of practice that fosters relational, developmental growth through shared inquiry.

Gratitude is a mindset. It's a tool that when deployed in crisis can be essential for reframing your narrative and your understanding. How we find gratitude in crisis, however, is not always obvious, nor is it easy. In this special episode I've looked back into our archive to find five extraordinary and unique situations where gratitude has been the difference between despair and resilience.Today's episode features important learnings from Strictly dancer Amy Dowden; celebrity chef Jon Watts; the late tech-founder and philanthropist Stephanie Shirley; self-help powerhouse Paul Mckenna; and Falklands veteran Simon Weston. LESSONS YOU'LL LEARN:Gratitude + passion = purpose. When you're thankful for something you love, that gratitude transforms into determination that can push you through unimaginable pain.When there's nothing else to be thankful for, clarity can be all you need - A hard truth is better than no truth. Knowing the boundaries of your crisis stops the spiral and gives you a place to start.Even the most devastating experiences can transform you for the better. Crisis can deliver a resilience dividend, dismantling what doesn't serve you and building something more meaningful in its place.Deliberately notice what you have, not what's missing. You get more of what you focus on. Gratitude retrains your brain to see abundance instead of lack during crisis.Be grateful for the chance to contribute. After losing everything, gratitude can simply be thankfulness for time and ability to make a difference. Learn to like yourself for that, not despite your scars.

British efforts to make peace suffer from a lack of focus; Casltereagh is just not applying much brainpower and effort to the American sitution.Almost no navy. A tiny regular army like 11,000 men, terribly officered. No real tax funding for the government to speak of. Deliberately, they have avoided preparing for war, preferring to pay off the national debt, and are almost entirely unprepared. And nevertheless totally confident that they can sleepwalk to victory in Canada.1812 turns out to defy all expectations, but 1813 sees a turnaround with more American success on land and less at sea.

On this episode of the Chuck ToddCast, Chuck looks at new polling showing just how unsettled Americans feel heading into yet another potential government shutdown. With 93% of the country agreeing that political violence is a problem and a majority believing we're in a full-blown political crisis, partisanship has hardened to the point where disagreement itself is seen as betrayal. Chuck traces how government shutdowns—once unheard of before 1980—became a recurring political weapon, thanks to Justice Department rulings, congressional maneuvering, and laws that reduced the political pain by exempting things like military pay and Social Security. The result: contractors left stranded, bipartisanship all but eliminated, and a system designed to fail.Then, veteran journalist for The Economist, James Bennet joins Chuck to break down Donald Trump's scathing U.N. speech and what it reveals about his worldview: not isolationist, but relentlessly self-centered, with his personal interest framed as national interest. Bennet warns that Trump's grip on power is existential for him and his administration, and if institutions like the Supreme Court allow unchecked presidential firings, the rule of law itself could unravel. From the Cold War's stabilizing influence to the fractures of today's four-party system crammed into two, Bennet and Chuck explore whether America can navigate its political turmoil without mass violence, and how drone warfare, refugee flows, and the collapse of the international rules-based order are reshaping global politics.The conversation also turns inward, examining how journalism has struggled to adapt in the Trump era. Bennet reflects on writing for international audiences, the dangers of catering to niche media bubbles, and why legacy outlets must rediscover local reporting. He argues that deplatforming Trump was a massive mistake that accelerated the collapse of resistance, while public pressure against platforming controversial voices continues to erode open debate. From Biden's misunderstood mandate to the Senate's paralysis and the rise of cult-of-personality politics, this episode considers what reforms will be necessary both in government and in journalism.Finally, Chuck takes a trip in the ToddCast Time Machine to 1974, when congress gave the Freedom of Information Act teeth, plus answers listeners' questions in the “Ask Chuck” segment.Got injured in an accident?

Real-eyes you are waking up from your traumatic past to a world of deliberately socially engineered ignorance. It is up to you, and within you, to heal yourself.We have all been blessed with resiliency of body mind and spirit. Our brains have been made perfect, so why do we only use 10% as we are taught?Because we have been taught wrong! Deliberately. When Project Paperclip imported Nazi and Fascist scientists into the US in the wake of WWII, with them came the formula for mind control in order to perpetuate what Hitler, Bush, Biden, and self appointed self anointed global leaders term New World Order. A compliant society was needed, and mind control became the invisible menace for implementing it.Since knowledge is our defense against mind control, birthright information on mind brain function was immediately suppressed under the 1947 National Security Act. Mark Phillips found this birthright information while working the highest levels of intelligence mind sciences to preserve the sanctity of free thought. He was appalled to see knowledge that is our defense against mind control, along with innate capabilities for healing from physical and mental trauma, had been withheld for generations from education, mental health, and medical communities and ultimately society as a whole. Mark was bound by laws of sedition, as were many others in positions of intelligence who shared his outrage at the sanctioned usurping of human evolution. When Mark lifted my daughter and me out of the Washington DC swamp of MK Ultra human trafficking, he handed me keys to my own mind. Since this is birthright information buried within us all, these methods are easy to self apply and result in abSOULute healing.Mark did not deprogram me. He empowered me to deprogram myself. In turn, I am sharing this information to all who have eyes to see, ears to hear, and soul to know truth. Since I am not bound by laws of sedition, and it was my experience to heal, you, too, can be empowered to heal from within your self free of misdirected, misinformed, intrusive outside input simply by quietly and privately applying PTSD: Time to Heal.Trauma activates our brain's defense mechanism of shutting down neuron pathways to compartmentalize and repress memory. Deep in the subconscious, trauma undermines our thinking process, intrudes on our present, and even manifests in ill health, unless it is dealt with through conscious awareness. Trauma shuts down neuron pathways. Awareness opens neuron pathways. It is within you to reclaim self control and inner peace just as I did.Our brains were made perfect by divine design, complete with defense mechanisms and capacity to deactivate those mechanisms with awareness. Yet this birthright knowledge was censored for generations while humanity was conditioned to look outside themselves to Big Government, Big Pharma, Big Tech, and Big Cult/occult religion to tell them how to live their lives. This gave control of life's purpose to a handful of self appointed self anointed puppetmasters hellbent on implementing their global slave society agenda.With information on the resiliency of body mind and spirit withheld for generations, Drs forgot that the subconscious never sleeps, even during surgery. This simple key would empower assurance of full healing rather than undermine the recovery process through adverse discussions in the operating room. After generations removed from birthright resiliency, humanity forgot how perfect our bodies have been made. Instead, people bought into Big Pharma's illusion that babies need over 79 vaccines in their first year in order to survive.Read the full article on Cathy's website here!
Venkat Atluri, McKinsey senior partner and coauthor of The Ecosystem Economy: How to Lead in the New Age of Sectors Without Borders, explains how value creation is shifting from stand-alone enterprises to coordinated networks of collaborators. Drawing on two decades advising leaders in technology, media, and telecom, he outlines what makes ecosystem businesses distinct from traditional conglomerates—and the governance required to make them work at scale. Atluri emphasizes that ecosystems aren't about diversification for its own sake, but about following a customer-led thread: “Start with the customer and then follow the thread—what other problems does that customer have that you can solve together with partners?” Key Insights from the Conversation Beyond Suppliers: Many firms mistake a supplier list or procurement process for an ecosystem. Atluri is clear: “A supplier list is not an ecosystem. An ecosystem is about mutual value creation and sharing in the upside.” Role Clarity Matters: Some firms will anchor the platform, continuously raising the bar for developers and users. Others will participate as contributors, protecting privacy, quality, and customer experience. Scale only comes when “responsibilities, incentives, and accountability” are explicit. Discipline in Operating Models: He advises executives to integrate ecosystem thinking into strategy, but then run deeper, dedicated workstreams to define roles, economics, and governance. Competition Is Ecosystem vs. Ecosystem: Scenario planning must account for new types of disruptors and ask, “What would an ecosystem leader do here?” Over time, Atluri expects the economy to consolidate into a few macro-ecosystems with multiple micro-ecosystems nested beneath them. History as a Control: Symbian and BlackBerry illustrate that large user bases are not moats. “Unless you keep raising the bar on your proposition, you lose.” Customer Experience Sets the Standard: Consumer expectations now apply in B2B as well: “If something doesn't work out of the box, that tells you the company is focused on itself, not the customer.”
2/8. Professor Emily Wilson's translation of The Iliad presents a narrative for an audience already deeply familiar with the Trojan War. The poem deliberately avoids the war's traditional beginning (like the Judgment of Paris or Helen's abduction) and its end (the fall of Troy or Achilles's death). Instead, it intensely focuses on a month and a half of "Greeks versus Greeks," offering a sophisticated and often unexpected reshaping of familiar stories, inviting the audience to engage with the narrative with fresh eyes, much like watching a new production of a classic play.
Today, Steve sits down with Baroness Beeban Kidron, a member of the House of Lords in the UK and a global authority on online privacy and tech regulation. They discuss the critical importance of privacy on the internet in the age of surveillance capitalism, why we need to reframe how we talk about AI and new technology, and the problems with the UK government's current AI policy. Key Takeaways: The internet has changed, making privacy online essential. Regulating the internet and technology is still possible. The current path the world is on when it comes to AI is highly problematic and should be taken more seriously. Tune in to hear more about: Why privacy online matters more than ever (1:22) How technology is impacting early childhood development (12:08) Baroness Kidron's take on the UK's AI strategy (28:17) Standout Quotes: “[The internet] is deliberately designed to keep your attention. Deliberately designed to make you come back, deliberately designed to know the most, to reveal the most. And in that context, actually, privacy becomes an incredible tool of protection for the user, particularly for children who may not understand the negotiation that they're in.” - Baroness Beeban Kidron “ We have to think about what kind of world we want, what kind of world is good for us, what kind of world benefits most people, and then we build ourselves a pathway to do the most we can in that direction.” - Baroness Beeban Kidron “ it is hugely important to protect the idea of copyright. It is a moral right because it is an expression of your humanity. What you write, what you draw, what you sing is yours. It is you. It is a manifestation of you. So it comes with, and in fact, in human rights law, it is specifically stated that it is your moral right to determine how that is used.” - Baroness Beeban Kidron Read the transcript of this episode Subscribe to the ISF Podcast wherever you listen to podcasts Connect with us on LinkedIn and Twitter From the Information Security Forum, the leading authority on cyber, information security, and risk management.
Send us a textIn this episode, the boys present another of their popular Dynamite Conspiracies episodes, where they discuss whether the USA isn't being an ally, but is instead looking to destroy the EU. Is this true? Or just a conspiracy?Conspiracy theory: The US is trying to onshore European industry and wealth because they see that Europe is a doomed society.Surprisingly, there's more evidence supporting this theory than I expected.The Inflation Reduction Act (IRA)It offers massive subsidies for companies that relocate to the U.S.Deindustrialisation via Energy SabotageThe sabotage of Nord Stream cut off Europe's access to cheap Russian gas. That devastated German manufacturing competitiveness.War in Ukraine as a European Wealth DrainThe U.S. sends military aid (paid in IOUs and manufactured gear), while Europe bleeds its industrial base, drains its budgets, and absorbs millions of refugees.Brain Drain and Capital FlightYoung, talented Europeans are migrating to the U.S. (and not just for sunshine).America's Narrative ControlU.S. media and think tanks push narratives that Europe is irrelevant or weak.In a joint press conference with German Chancellor Olaf Scholz on February 7, 2022, Biden declared that if Russia invaded Ukraine, "there will no longer be a Nord Stream 2. We will bring an end to it". - Is this an admission of US guilt?The comparison between the Marshall Plan and China's Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) is complex, with significant differences in scale, financing, and intent. The Marshall Plan, which provided over $13 billion in aid (equivalent to over $150 billion today) to rebuild Western Europe after World War II, was primarily funded through grants and loans with a focus on economic recovery and political stability. The BRI is a vast infrastructure project funded largely through loans and foreign direct investment, with a focus on connectivity across Asia, Africa, and Europe.Estimates suggest China has invested more than $210 billion in BRI projects, with Chinese firms securing over $340 billion in construction contracts.Some analysts have noted that the scale of the BRI is significantly larger than the Marshall Plan, with one comparison suggesting the BRI was "one-twelfth the size of what is being contemplated in the One Belt, One Road initiative" relative to the Marshall Plan.But what are your thoughts on this topic?Do you agree with Tony and Tayo on this?Or do you have other thoughts?Links used during the show:-https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nord_Stream_pipelines_sabotage-https://www.nature.com/articles/s41599-018-0077-9Tune in and listen to the discussion.

Eric is joined by Justin White of K&D Landscaping at a recent technology conference. White, a self-made CEO who grew his family's landscaping business from $1 million to $20 million in ten years, shares insights on leveraging technology, particularly AI, for business growth and efficiency. He emphasizes that while AI can't perform physical tasks like mowing, it revolutionizes administrative work such as estimating, scheduling, and communication, ultimately freeing up time for a more "human" approach with clients. The conversation also highlights the importance of personal well-being, strategic vision, and the value of coaching for entrepreneurs aiming to scale their businesses and create wealth for their teams. White concludes by underscoring the lucrative opportunities within the landscaping industry, encouraging contractors to embrace self-care, set ambitious goals, and act with speed and intention. Key Takeaways: • Prioritize self-care and well-being as a crucial component for success, which can help reduce stress and improve your overall mindset. • Set a bold and ambitious long-term vision for your company, as this vision will guide your major decisions and help you build confidence. • Deliberately allocate dedicated time to explore and implement new technologies, like AI, to enhance back-end operations and improve efficiency. • Build a robust leadership team capable of making independent decisions across all business areas, enabling growth beyond current operational limitations. • Consider hiring a business coach to provide guidance, foster a belief in your capabilities, and maintain accountability towards your goals.

In this episode, we sit down with performance coach and hypnotherapist Dawn Grant to unpack the true nature of "the zone." While many think of it as a purely mental state, Dawn reveals it as a spiritual and mental experience that goes far beyond traditional sports psychology. She shares how her work with hypnosis led her to discover that the peak performance state athletes describe is the same euphoric, calm, and focused state her clients enter during hypnosis. Dawn explains that the zone is a natural state of mind, characterized by reduced critical thinking and the absence of worry, doubt, and fear. By learning to quiet the ego and its negative thought patterns, we can deliberately tap into our true potential—not just on the golf course, but in every aspect of our lives. We discuss the value of failure as a roadmap for growth, the importance of a healthy mindset, and why the "post-segment routine" is key to building lasting confidence and joy.

From the melancholy melodies of post-Soviet Latvia to commanding pride festival stages across New York, Keeana Kee's journey embodies the transformative power of living one's truth. In this deeply personal conversation, the independent pop artist and activist shares how economic hardship shaped her artistry, the dangers she's navigated as a queer woman in male-dominated industries, and why visibility remains her most powerful tool for change.Keeana opens up about the evolution from exotic pop to cinematic ballads, the deliberate choice to make her debut single explicitly queer despite industry pressure, and how her grandmother's wartime songs still echo through her minor-key compositions. Her story is one of resilience, artistic integrity, and the belief that music can literally save lives.Timestamped Takeaways[02:57] Early musical memories: Singing melancholy post-Soviet war songs with grandmother in Latvia shaped Keeana's artistic DNA and preference for minor keys.[04:22] Breaking artistic barriers: Growing up in economic hardship where arts weren't valued as career paths, until London opened new possibilities for creative freedom.[06:01] London awakening: First pride parade and seeing visible queer community provided crucial realisation that she wasn't alone or "sick" for being gay.[08:24] Fashion world confidence: Modelling career built performance confidence but also taught harsh lessons about comparison and fighting for spotlight in competitive industry.[10:42] Music industry dangers: Discusses the reality of being vulnerable as woman in studios, needing protection from sexual abuse and harassment from male producers.[15:23] Sound evolution explained: Natural progression from exotic pop to cinematic style driven by deep connection to world's pain and personal healing journey.[21:34] Deliberately queer debut: Chose to make "Coconut Rum and Coke" explicitly lesbian despite industry warnings it would damage her career prospects.[26:13] Fan connection impact: Receiving messages from fans whose lives were literally saved by her music brings tears and demonstrates music's healing power.[30:20] LGBTQ Emerging Artist Award: Winning prestigious 2023 award recognised her visibility work and artistic contribution to queer community.[32:19] Advice to younger self: Would tell 15-year-old Keeana to never lose her light despite family criticism and always believe in herself.[35:12] Pride month message: Two-minute uninterrupted platform to speak about pride as resistance, staying visible for others, and hope for united world.[36:58] Gateway track recommendation: "TikTok" chosen as perfect introduction because it balances clubby pop with strong message about staying true to yourself.Guest BioKeeana Kee is an independent pop artist and activist whose music bridges vulnerability and strength. From Latvia to London to New York, she's transformed personal struggles into anthems of resilience. Winner of the 2023 LGBTQ Emerging Artist Award, Keeana performs at pride festivals across America whilst maintaining fierce authenticity in an industry that often demands conformity.

America's obesity epidemic isn't an accident - it's a carefully orchestrated assault on your health designed to create lifelong customers for Big Food, Big Pharma, and the medical industrial complex. In this explosive investigation, we expose the shocking truth behind why two-thirds of Americans are now overweight or obese, and it has nothing to do with willpower or personal responsibility. This is biological warfare disguised as food, and you're the target.Prepare to be outraged as we reveal how food scientists have weaponized addiction by engineering hyper-palatable processed foods that hijack your brain's reward system more powerfully than cocaine. We'll expose the secret laboratory studies that proved these foods cause obesity, diabetes, and heart disease - studies that were buried by corporate executives who knew exactly what they were doing to the American people. From high fructose corn syrup that triggers unstoppable hunger to artificial additives that disrupt your hormones, from marketing campaigns that target children's developing brains to government nutrition guidelines written by food industry lobbyists - this is systematic poisoning for profit.But the conspiracy goes deeper than you could ever imagine. We'll reveal how pharmaceutical companies deliberately created the obesity crisis to sell you diabetes drugs, weight loss medications, and surgical procedures worth hundreds of billions annually. The same corporations making you fat are selling you the "cures" - and none of them actually work because that would destroy their business model. We'll expose the suppressed research on what really causes weight gain, the natural solutions they've criminalized, and the doctors who've been silenced for telling patients the truth.They don't want you thin, healthy, and energetic - they want you sick, dependent, and profitable. Your obesity isn't your fault - it's their business plan.

This week we're tackling the wonderfully niche concept of anti-rock. Or more specifically, we're trying to work out what the hell it actually is, why Google doesn't seem to know either, and how it connects to everything from Frank Zappa taking the piss out of The Beatles to bands who are so talented they deliberately make themselves sound rubbish. Chris has dragged poor Mark and our resident punk professor Ferro down a rabbit hole that starts with French composers banging bits of concrete in the 1940s and somehow ends up at US Maple, a band that sounds like they're actively trying to annoy you. Along the way we encounter Captain Beefheart's deliberately mental Trout Mask Replica, The Residents being mysterious weirdos in eyeball masks, and Suicide essentially inventing electronic music with what amounts to a homemade fuzz box. We get properly stuck into the prehistory of experimental music, from Pierre Schaeffer's musique concrète through to the New York art scene of the 1970s. Our main thesis is that anti-rock isn't just noise for the sake of it - it's what happens when genuinely skilled musicians decide to systematically tear apart rock conventions from the inside. Think of it as punk's more cerebral, art school cousin who's read too much Derrida. This is part one of three. Next week we'll tackle the No Wave explosion in late 70s New York, and part three will finally explain why US Maple exist and why anyone would voluntarily listen to them. We also touch on Glenn Branca's guitar symphonies, Pere Ubu's Cleveland weirdness, and try to work out why some of the most influential experimental music came from artists who could absolutely play it straight if they wanted to. Spoiler: they definitely didn't want to. Timestamps: Episode Highlights: 00:00 Introduction and Initial Banter 00:51 Meet the Guest: Ferro (Not Pharaoh) 01:47 Ferro's Musical Journey and PhD in Punk 04:16 What the Hell Is Anti-Rock? 09:37 French Blokes Banging Concrete: The Birth of Musique Concrète 22:01 When Classical Composers Lost Their Minds 27:48 Moondog: The Homeless Viking of Sixth Avenue 28:25 How American Music Got Properly Weird 29:15 Snake Time Rhythms and Native American Influences 30:04 From Experimental Composers to Rock Subversion 30:36 Captain Beefheart's Deliberately Mental Masterpiece 35:05 Red Crayola: Texan Psychedelic Deconstructionists 40:42 The Residents: Eyeball Masks and Musical Terrorism 47:09 Suicide: Two Blokes and a Homemade Fuzz Box 52:06 Pere Ubu: Cleveland's Contribution to Musical Chaos 55:38 Setting Up the No Wave Explosion

Daily Boost Podcast Show Notes Stop Chasing More Hours: Your Secret Time Hack Is Here April 16, 2025 | Episode 5073 Host: Scott Smith Episode Description Ever feel like there aren't enough hours in the day? In this eye-opening episode, Scott debunks the myth of "creating more time" and instead shows you how to master your perception of time. You'll discover practical strategies to make your days feel longer, more fulfilling, and less rushed—no time machine required! Scott shares his science-backed "anticipation engine" technique that can transform how you experience every single day. Featured Story Scott reflects on a conversation with his daughter about how each generation witnesses incredible changes, yet the basics of life remain constant. While recovering from a cold caught at a podcast convention, Scott experienced firsthand how time can simultaneously fly by and crawl along—proving that your perception of time is within your control. There is no hype, just real-world results that will change how you think about your daily schedule. Key Takeaways You can't create more time, but you can change your perception of time by managing your activities and focus differently. The "anticipation engine" technique—having things you genuinely look forward to—scientifically changes how you experience the passage of time. Constantly being busy makes time pass quickly and creates the feeling of not having enough; strategically slowing down makes days feel longer and more fulfilling. Memorable Quotes "Most people are very excited when they're growing; most people are very depressed when they're not growing." "Around me, you're not going to get hype. You're going to get results." "You don't need more time. You need more focus and a change in perspective about time." Scott's Three-Step Approach Embrace the "anticipation engine" by listing 5-6 things you're looking forward to in the next week, month, or year. Deliberately slow down your pace throughout the day—take more time in the morning and don't rush yourself all day long. Introduce complex sensory input into your day through music, visual experiences, and varied activities to make time feel richer and fuller.

Jeffrey Epstein Files Controversy: - Attorney General Pam Bondi's Accusations: Bondi accused the New York FBI Field Office of deliberately withholding significant parts of the Jeffrey Epstein files.
