In this episode of Words With Wista, we're unpacking America's latest circus: the Supreme Court entertaining Trump's mission to end birthright citizenship, the National Park Service dropping free admission on MLK Day and Juneteenth while adding Trump's birthday, and Senator Bernie Moreno trying to make dual citizens pick a side like it's Survivor. We get into Trump vowing to send American companies to Congo and Rwanda to scoop up rare earth assets, Amazon plotting its own postal service, and Klarna rolling out membership tiers that cost more than people's groceries while Americans juggle $1.23 trillion in credit card debt. Major record labels want pricier streaming, Cinnabon fired an employee after a discriminatory incident caught on camera but supporters still donated over $50K to her, and a TikToker checked a commenter for his prejudiced remark by reminding him his Grindr account exists, that he's married, and that she will be telling his wife. The Kennedy Center Honors also sparked conversation after Trump presented awards to Sylvester Stallone, KISS, Michael Crawford, George Strait, and especially Gloria Gaynor, with many calling out the irony of the “I Will Survive” icon receiving honors while being a known supporter of the president. Plus, the Streamer Awards imploded under FanFan's jokes, the World Cup draw turned into a weird PR stunt for Trump, and Haiti lands a dream-but-terrifying group with Brazil, Morocco, and Scotland. A buffet of nonsense. IG: itswista Podcast IG: wordswithwista Substack: wordswithwista

An L.A. based podcast brought to you by two forensic psychologists who dissect the intersections where true crime, forensic psychology, and entertainment meet. Episode Description: Crazy In Love: Erotomania Dr. Scott & Dr. Shiloh get into the subcategory of Delusional Disorder, Erotomania; to have the delusional or false belief of a secret or known admirer. This disorder is often the trigger for obsessive celebrity stalkers and has been the cause for numerous violent acts. The docs explore the origin, criteria, and research of this rare phenomenon and cover the cases of John Hinkley Jr., Margaret Mary Ray, and the shooter who killed rising star Christina Grimmie.

You have to check your thinking constantly. This is not gambling, it's investing your time and money. Common sense is not so common. You have to check your thinking because things change. Long-term thinking is higher level thinking. You gotta check your depression because when you're self-destructive. You make a living from your labor, but you make a life from what you get. Life is brutal as men are supposed to be. titles Mastering Anticipation in Sports Betting The Psychology Behind Betting Decisions
BT & Sal dive into a heated discussion on the New York Jets, with BT's renewed faith in the team's "unkillable" foundation and coach Aaron Glenn leading to a debate on whether Tyrod Taylor is helping develop young talent like Mitchell (00:04:50) despite the losing season. Callers weigh in with fiery takes on the Mets' offseason, urging Steve Cohen to trade for Skubal and move on from Diaz (00:17:52). The main event is the NFL Power Rankings for Week 14, where both hosts exclude traditional powers like the Bills, Ravens, and Eagles (00:36:31). Number 1: Both agree on the dominant New England Patriots (00:42:50). Number 2: Both choose the Los Angeles Rams (00:42:19). Contention: Sal shocks with the Bears at #5 (00:37:24) and Seahawks at #3 (00:41:29), while BT defends the Packers at #5 (00:36:31), 49ers at #4 (00:38:12), and the Broncos at #3 (00:39:17). They also discuss the tenure clock ticking for the Jets' front office (00:30:32).

Tim and Mary take on a news cycle that pauses just long enough to acknowledge the rabbit hole of Big Tech. This has to be the case, because so much of what we do and see and hear is undergirded by this infrastructure, which has been building for 100 years. It’s so very interesting from a prophecy perspective, that the world is obsessed with tech, algorithms, and control of our everyday lives. Today we talk about Trump’s recent Ai executive order, “The Genesis Mission”. People are just delusional enough to think it will make life better. It will not, it cannot. In that vein, we discuss “The United States of Delusion” that explains in simple terms just how manipulated we really are in our thinking on a wide range of social issues. Then along comes a woman who was married to a Schwab-ite and she blows the lid off that level of manipulation via the WEF. Sensing a theme here, as always we want more than ever to keep you from being deceived. What a world.

This week, Yanis Varoufakis and Wolfgang Munchau take aim at Europe's core illusions. Are Europe's 'values' anything more than a slogan when its leaders fail to defend a French ICC judge sanctioned by the Trump administration? And why is Europe fixated on rapidly increasing defence spending to 3.5% of GDP - is this target a genuine strategy to counter Russia and achieve independence, or is it a doomed exercise that will only funnel money inefficiently and increase Europe's reliance on American arms suppliers?The Econoclasts is the podcast from UnHerd in which Yanis Varoufakis and Wolfgang Munchau each week pick pillars of the economic orthodoxy – so-called ‘settled facts' – and shatter them. Why? Because, while they don't always agree politically, they're united in one conviction: the consensus is rotten and the establishment's model is failing. Hosted on Acast.

(Group Learning Program) - Chapter 22 - Mental Health: A Modern Day Delusion The modern mental health discipline has only been in existence for a relatively short period of time compared to the length of time these Teachings have existed in the world. Considering the entire span of time that Gotama Buddha's Teachings have existed, over 2,500 years, the short timeframe of knowledge developed in the field of mental health is highly unfounded, unproven, and untested.In this Podcast, David will share his personal story about the 24 years he spent searching for answers to depression, bipolar, anxiety, and other symptoms classified as "mental illness" and how he found the answers to the elimination of all discontent feelings in The Teachings of The Buddha.——-Daily Wisdom - Walking The Path with The BuddhaDedicated to the education of Gotama Buddha's Teachings to attain Enlightenment.https://www.BuddhaDailyWisdom.com(See our website for online learning, courses, and retreats.)Group Learning Program - LIVE Interactive Online Classes, Book, Audiobook, Videos, Podcast and Personal Guidancehttps://mailchi.mp/f958c59262eb/buddhadailywisdomThe Words of The Buddha - Pali Canon in English Study Grouphttps://mailchi.mp/6bb4fdf2b6e0/palicanonstudyprogramFREE Book - Developing a Life Practice: The Path That Leads to Enlightenmenthttps://www.buddhadailywisdom.com/freebuddhabooksFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/DailyWisdom999YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@DailyWisdom999Podcast: https://creators.spotify.com/pod/profile/buddhadailywisdom/Support our efforts to share The Teachings of Gotama Buddha with you and worldwide for all people using this link.https://www.buddhadailywisdom.com/supportbuddha#buddhism #learnbuddhism #enlightenment #dhamma #dharma #buddha #meditation #meditationretreat #meditationcourse

As part of our Hidden Killers 2025 Year in Review series, we turn our focus to one of the most bizarre and psychologically chilling trials unfolding in America: Lori Vallow Daybell, the self-proclaimed prophet who's decided she's the best person to defend herself in court. Already convicted in Idaho for the murders of her two youngest children, Tylee Ryan and JJ Vallow, and the conspiracy to murder her husband's former wife, Tammy Daybell, Lori is now facing justice in Arizona for the murder of her fourth husband, Charles Vallow. But this time, there's no defense team to shield her — because Lori fired them. She's representing herself. In this special, Tony Brueski sits down with psychotherapist and author Shavaun Scott to unpack the chilling psychology behind Lori's decision, exploring how delusion, narcissism, and religious grandiosity collide in a courtroom setting. Lori's behavior — confident, defiant, and disturbingly serene — may seem erratic, but Scott explains how it fits a pattern of pathological self-belief common among cult leaders and high-control personalities. During her recent pretrial hearing, Lori insisted on moving forward with trial despite her own forensics expert not being ready, demanded to exclude incriminating statements from her deceased brother Alex Cox, and even tried to subpoena journalist Nate Eaton — the reporter who's covered her saga from day one. She also hinted at testifying in her own defense, setting the stage for one of the most surreal spectacles in recent legal history. But beneath the theatrics lies a darker psychology. Lori isn't just defending herself legally — she's defending her identity as a “divine messenger.” Scott breaks down how shared psychosis (folie à deux) between Lori and her husband Chad Daybell fueled a belief system that justified murder under the guise of prophecy. Together, they turned apocalypse fantasies into fatal decisions. As jury selection looms and Arizona prosecutors prepare to argue their case, Tony and Shavaun explore whether Lori's self-representation is a strategy, a symptom, or both — and how her religious delusions continue to warp her sense of accountability.

Lori isn't just defending herself legally — she's defending her identity as a “divine messenger.” Scott breaks down how shared psychosis (folie à deux) between Lori and her husband Chad Daybell fueled a belief system that justified murder under the guise of prophecy. Together, they turned apocalypse fantasies into fatal decisions. As jury selection looms and Arizona prosecutors prepare to argue their case, Tony and Shavaun explore whether Lori's self-representation is a strategy, a symptom, or both — and how her religious delusions continue to warp her sense of accountability.
As part of our Hidden Killers 2025 Year in Review series, we turn our focus to one of the most bizarre and psychologically chilling trials unfolding in America: Lori Vallow Daybell, the self-proclaimed prophet who's decided she's the best person to defend herself in court. Already convicted in Idaho for the murders of her two youngest children, Tylee Ryan and JJ Vallow, and the conspiracy to murder her husband's former wife, Tammy Daybell, Lori is now facing justice in Arizona for the murder of her fourth husband, Charles Vallow. But this time, there's no defense team to shield her — because Lori fired them. She's representing herself. In this special, Tony Brueski sits down with psychotherapist and author Shavaun Scott to unpack the chilling psychology behind Lori's decision, exploring how delusion, narcissism, and religious grandiosity collide in a courtroom setting. Lori's behavior — confident, defiant, and disturbingly serene — may seem erratic, but Scott explains how it fits a pattern of pathological self-belief common among cult leaders and high-control personalities.

Boomer, Pinder & Rhett dive back into Don Maloney's comments from last week, and the boys still can't believe what they heard. The Calgary Flames are sitting second-last in the NHL with a loaded draft class on the way — it's time to rebuild and tear this thing down. The guys discuss why the organization keeps resisting the obvious, why the fanbase would absolutely support a rebuild, and why delaying it only makes things worse.#nhl #nhlshorts #nhlplayoffs #nhlpredictions #nhlhockey #nhlpicks #stanleycup #stanleycupfinal #calgaryflames CHECK OUT OUR STUFF ⬇️BARN BURNER MERCHhttps://nationgear.ca/collections/shirts/FlamesnationBARN BURNER SHORTS https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLj_bcGtvvo-cW2DHEDZ6dEO5ePDmlhZc9&si=jo8iNGxT4ImhS2Y8

BT & Sal tag-team NFL Insider Brian Baldinger on the disastrous state of New York football. The discussion is immediately fiery as Sal questions the Giants' 2-10 record, demanding Baldy shut down the fan notion that their talent is better than their dismal standing. Baldy agrees, highlighting the defense's collapse, but gives Interim Head Coach Kafka a passing grade for his deceptive play-calling. The conversation shifts to the Jets' quarterback crisis, where Baldy throws a bone to the fanbase, confidently stating that Cam Ward "can play," directly impacting the Giants' draft strategy. They analyze the league's overall parity, with Baldy arguing the playoffs will be diluted by teams barely over .500, a direct result of QB mega-contracts forcing good teams like the Lions to be "thin." Finally, they debate the legitimacy of the Caleb Williams-led Bears ahead of their measuring-stick game against the Eagles.
2 Peter series message 11Text: II Peter 3:1-7Peter reinforces our need to be sober minded. Scoffers will come, mocking the notion of Jesus' coming. In doing so, they deliberately overlook the fact that God has already judged the world in the great flood, and will do it again with fire.
It's Monday, November 24th, and today Norm is just wondering: when was the last time the Dallas Cowboys delivered a win that made fans scream, throw things, swear they were done, and then pretend they believed all along?Because after falling behind 21–0 — complete with a failed fourth-down attempt, a fumbled punt, multiple drops, and enough self-inflicted pain to qualify as performance art — somehow, someway, the Cowboys decided to be a football team again.From there? Dallas chipped, clawed, and lucked its way back into what turned into one of their most meaningful wins in years — a 24–21 comeback over the defending Super Bowl champs, the division rival Eagles, and the team that's made the NFC East feel like a one-team league. So… what does it mean?A turning point?A false alarm?A setup for heartbreak on Thanksgiving?Well, buckle up — because Norm breaks down the chaos, the odds, and exactly what a path to the playoffs looks like now that this team has decided losing isn't as fun as we all feared.For now?

We welcome back nuclear power expert, Peter Bradford, former Nuclear Regulatory Commissioner and board member for the Union of Concerned Scientists to update us on the latest nuclear power boondoggles that force customers to pay for the construction of nuclear reactors sometimes decades before they benefit from any energy that's produced. Plus, molecular biologist, Becky McClain, who got infected by a dangerous virus in her workplace, joins us to discuss her book, “Exposed: A Pfizer Scientist Battles Corruption, Lies, and Betrayal, and Becomes a Biohazard Whistleblower.”Peter Bradford teaches and advises on utility regulation, nuclear power, and energy policy in the United States and overseas. He is a former member of the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission and is on the board of the Union of Concerned Scientists.Basically, (nuclear power) is like trying to stop world hunger with caviar. It's too expensive, takes much too long, you wind up buying too little of it, and you displace all of the better sources.Peter BradfordIt's almost like there's a bubble being built on top of a bubble, because there's a real chance that we're not going to see all the artificial intelligence demand that people have been saying. And then on top of that, it's for damn sure that we're not going to see successful companies developing all the small reactors that are on their drawing boards.Peter BradfordBecky McClain is a retired biotech worker and research scientist. She is known as the first successful biotech whistleblower who spoke and reported on biolab safety issues of public concern. On April 1, 2010, Ms. McClain won a federal court whistleblower trial against Pfizer, Inc., which centered on free speech rights concerning biosafety and public health. She is the author of “Exposed: A Pfizer Scientist Battles Corruption, Lies, and Betrayal, and Becomes a Biohazard Whistleblower.”I was exposed to a dangerous virus and OSHA worked against me. My medical care was blocked. My complaints ignored. No safety inspection occurred after I had documented complaints shown to them from several scientists. They stole my documents. It seemed like every institution that I went for help, they just became part of the danger.Becky McClainThe book really provides the public an understanding of the culture of health and safety operating within 21st century biotechnology. Once the reader reads it, they probably will feel the terrible repercussions that the public could face if it's not countered and balanced with effective whistleblower protections and improved worker health and safety rights.Becky McClainWhen you were exposed and became sick, you tried to go to the workers' compensation agency, the state of Connecticut, and their response was totally dismaying. They ruled that trade secrets of Pfizer superseded your rights to get exposure records from Pfizer for your healthcare.Ralph NaderFar, far more people die from silent violence of workplace and environmental contaminants than are killed in street crimes every year in the United States.Ralph Nader Get full access to Ralph Nader Radio Hour at www.ralphnaderradiohour.com/subscribe

Prolonged conversations with ChatGPT and other LLM chatbots have created rapid developments of severe delusions, paranoia, and even death by suicide in some cases. In this episode, Dr. David Puder sits down with Columbia researchers Dr. Amandeep Jutla and Dr. Ragy Girgis to unpack five shocking real-world cases, explain why large language models are dangerously sycophantic, trained to agree, mirror, and amplify any idea instead of challenging it.

Dunning–Kruger Effect This is the best-known term. It refers to a cognitive bias where people with low ability in a domain overestimate their competence, often because they lack the knowledge to recognize their own mistakes. It doesn't necessarily involve delusions, but it explains why someone might think they're much more skilled at decision-making than they really are. Illusion of Superiority (Optimism Bias) Sometimes called the “better-than-average effect.” People consistently rate their own decision-making, intelligence, or skills as above average, even when objective measures show otherwise. 3.Illusion of Superiority (Optimism Bias) Delusional Disorder / Grandiosity (Clinical Context) When the overestimation of ability moves beyond bias and into fixed false beliefs that resist contrary evidence, it becomes clinical. In psychiatry, this would be described as grandiose delusions, a symptom sometimes seen in bipolar disorder or schizophrenia. 4. Over coming -Overconfidence Bias (Decision Science / Finance) In economics and behavioral finance, “overconfidence bias” is the specific term for people placing too much faith in their own judgments, leading to poor decisions and risky behavior. hawthorne Effective - ✅ If you mean a psychological bias → Dunning–Kruger effect or overconfidence bias. ✅ If you mean a clinical, delusional state → grandiose delusion

Can founders turn delusion into success? In this episode, Ryan and Will discuss the essential role of optimism in startups. Drawing parallels between founders and firefighters, the duo explores how belief against all odds drives entrepreneurs forward. They explain how maintaining optimism is not just about having a positive outlook but about creating momentum from minor wins and leveraging chaos as an opportunity. The hosts also address the fine line between optimism and dishonesty, emphasizing the importance of an 'educated wish.' Whether you're battling to raise funds or struggling to maintain morale, this episode delves into why a founder's unyielding belief is crucial for startup survival and growth.Resources:Startup Therapy Podcasthttps://www.startups.com/community/startup-therapyWebsitehttps://www.startups.com/beginLinkedInhttps://www.linkedin.com/company/startups-co/Join our Network of Top FoundersWil Schroterhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/wilschroter/Ryan Rutanhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/ryan-rutan/What to listen for:00:07 The Delusional Optimism of Founders01:02 Creating and Living in a Fantasy02:00 Running Toward Chaos04:54 The Passion and Drive of Founders05:59 The Reality of Startup Life12:08 The Role of Belief and Proof14:31 Finding Optimism in Small Wins16:40 Persistence in the Face of Rejection18:56 The Power of Hope in Business19:52 The Role of Optimism in Startups21:41 Balancing Optimism and Honesty23:03 The Fine Line Between Optimism and Deception26:07 The Importance of Optimism in Leadership28:55 The Role of Optimism in Overcoming Challenges32:05 The Founder's Mindset: Manufacturing Optimism
I keep thinking about the interaction I had with a guy who angrily told me that "AI minds are actually minds" and relationships with them "can absolutely be real relationships," saying that I "need to start accepting that this is a new class of being and they are intelligent and do have thoughts of their own."

Welcome Back to Part Two of this weeks episode! We continue the conversation questioning if ppl actually judge their friends and/or hold them accountable for cheating, not wanting to date a person that has children because you want to be the priority, mama's boys/girls, and why women hate going on dates with men who dont "plan" dates. ENJOY!
Joe Rogan weighs in on the church, claiming people attend only to "better their lives." The panel dissects this rosy, misguided view, contrasting church community (which often manipulates vulnerable people) with true secular support. We challenge the notion that Jesus offered a "perfect way to live" and dive into the philosophical debate over whether divine permission makes humans more, or less, decent. Plus, we explore the explosive argument for the mythicist position on the historical Jesus. Theocratic claims crumble under critical scrutiny.News Source:Joe Rogan on Religion and ChristianityBy NewsNation Stafffor NewsNationOctober 29th, 2025

Humanity teeters on the brink of a cosmic identity crisis.

Saturn and Neptune are Retrograde in Pisces, bringing a period of deep introspection—and potential emotional pitfalls. The energy feels foggy, exhaustive, and heavy, putting our defenses to the test. This astrological transit can stir up old fears and delusions, making past, unhealthy coping mechanisms sound like logical solutions. Be aware: the temptation toward escapism will be high, whether through old addictions like drugs, alcohol, and food, or behaviors like doomscrolling, overeating, or toxic relationships. This is a cautionary time. Your nervous system may feel frayed and exhausted, and your internal "check engine light" is on. It's a real danger that you might romanticize destructive behaviors. In this episode, we arm you with spiritual and practical defenses: Double Down on Recovery: It's time to double down on asking for help and proactively activating your support systems. Tap Into Community: We discuss why friendships and community are your most vital resources against the loud, delusional inner voice. The Antidote to Self-Serving: Learn how being of service to others is the antidote to feeling selfish and stuck—a powerful way to get out of your own head. Facing the Mental Health Storm: We address why voices of depression, anxiety, and worthlessness may get louder now and remind you that you are not alone. Spiritual Defenses: Practical ways to talk to your higher self and ask for support from your guides and spiritual troops. Don't let old delusions lead you into a darker place. This transit is an incredible evolutionary journey, but you must be mindful. Listen now to learn how to proactively safeguard your sobriety, mental clarity, and spiritual well-being. What is one specific recovery tool or practice you're committed to using more in the coming months?

The National Security Hour with Col. Mike and Dr. Mike – U.S. foreign policy unravels as misguided diplomacy and corruption drive America toward endless wars and moral decay. With leaders obsessed with power and global influence, true national interests fade. From Venezuela to Nigeria, failed strategies and arrogance expose a government serving ideology and elites rather than protecting sovereignty, stability, or Christian values...
Mike talks with Caleb Alexander Smith and David Krumholtz about Forelock, a dark, biting satire set on the margins of Hollywood. The film follows Caiden, a drifting ex-athlete pulled into the bizarre world of boulevard impersonators and small-time hustlers by Randy, a disillusioned veteran of the trade. Together they chase a missing payout and sink deeper into the city's surreal underbelly.Smith and Krumholtz discuss the film's blend of desperation, performance, and self-mythology—how Forelock captures a Los Angeles where ambition and delusion often look the same.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-projection-booth-podcast--5513239/support.Become a supporter of The Projection Booth at http://www.patreon.com/projectionbooth
