Today I am bringing you a guest episode featuring Emily Feldpausch, a parent of three, educator, and author of The Unfollow Effect: Intentional Living in a Digital Age. After a personal experiment with social media revealed just how much technology was shaping her daily life, she became passionate about helping others cultivate healthier, more intentional digital habits. Emily encourages people to protect what matters most—their peace, presence, and relationships—while using technology in ways that align with their values. Today she shares insights on how we can build boundaries for screen time and model better habits and boundaries as parents. Her tips come at a perfect time for any parent wanting to prioritize presence and intentionality around screen time and technology this summer. Learn more about your ad choices.

Only about one-in-three young adults possess much faith in their dating skills, with women's confidence often centered on declining mismatched advances rather than initiating meaningful connections. At the same time, many women are becoming increasingly selective in their expectations while feeling emotionally disengaged from the dating process, according to the Institute of Family Studies. In a culture where dating apps, social media, and endless choices can make finding genuine connection feel more complicated than ever, many women are asking themselves: Is there a better way to approach love and relationships? Joining us today is Lauren Salaun, a dating expert, somatic life and success coach, transformational facilitator, speaker, and host of the AMPLIFY podcast. Lauren is dedicated to helping women embody their feminine energy, heal their nervous systems, and reprogram subconscious beliefs that may be preventing them from attracting the healthy, fulfilling relationships they desire. Together, we explore what it means to become the woman who feels secure in her worth, grounded in her values, and confident in her ability to receive love rather than chase it. Lauren shares insights on breaking free from hustle culture, establishing healthy boundaries, elevating relationship standards, and cultivating the inner transformation that allows authentic connections to flourish. We also discuss the realities of modern online dating, the challenges many women face when navigating today's relationship landscape, and how personal growth, self-awareness, and emotional healing can create a stronger foundation for lasting love. Whether you're actively dating, recovering from heartbreak, or simply seeking a deeper understanding of yourself and your relationships, this conversation offers valuable insights on attracting healthy love and building meaningful connections in the digital age.

In Chilling Effects: Repression, Conformity, and Power in the Digital Age (Cambridge UP, 2025), Jonathon W. Penney explores the increasing weaponization of surveillance, censorship, and new technology to repress and control us. With corporations, governments, and extremist actors using big data, cyber-mobs, AI, and other threats to limit our rights and freedoms, concerns about chilling effects – or how these activities deter us from exercising our rights – have become urgent. Penney draws on law, privacy, and social science to present a new conformity theory that highlights the dangers of chilling effects and their potential to erode democracy and enable a more illiberal future. He critiques conventional theories and provides a framework for predicting, explaining, and evaluating chilling effects in a range of contexts. Urgent and timely, Chilling Effects sheds light on the repressive and conforming effects of technology, state, and corporate power, and offers a roadmap of how to respond to their weaponization today and in the future.

PODCAST EPISODE | An Analog Brain In A Digital Age With Marco Ciappelli — On Location at Infosecurity Europe 2026 The most dangerous attacks at Infosecurity Europe 2026 weren't the high-tech ones. Lee Clark of the Retail & Hospitality ISAC sits down with me to explain why the soft target is still a human being — a help desk, a new hire, a phone ringing at dinner — and what stays in our hands as the shopper quietly becomes an algorithm.
In her recent publication, Hidden Heretics: Jewish Doubt in the Digital Age, scholar Ayala Fader tells the fascinating, often heart-wrenching stories of married ultra-Orthodox Jewish men and women in twenty-first-century New York who lead “double lives” in order to protect those they love. Drawing on five years of fieldwork with those living double lives and the rabbis, life coaches, and religious therapists who minister to, advise, and sometimes excommunicate them, Fader investigates religious doubt and social change in the digital age. In following those living double lives, who range from the religiously observant but open-minded on one end to atheists on the other, Fader delves into universal quandaries of faith and skepticism, the ways digital media can change us, and family frictions that arise when a person radically transforms who they are and what they believe.

Temptation in the Digital Age
We're used to hostile online encounters with total strangers. It fuels the digital economy. But what if there were a way to experiment with radical emotional honesty with an anonymous other—much the same as you'd experience at an Alcoholics Anonymous meeting? The anonymous founder of This Life, an audio-only app built on anonymity, joins For the Life of the World to argue that emotional and spiritual progress is still possible at scale. "What's really kind is to care about somebody else. And then even more kind than that is to allow somebody else to care about you." In this episode with Evan Rosa, Justin Smith (a pseudonym) reflects on what he learned in Alcoholics Anonymous, the genius of Bill Wilson, and why our voices carry so much emotional weight, and how sharing them—even (and perhaps especially) anonymously—can be a transformative experience of growth. Together they discuss anonymity as a path to honesty, the "spiritual hitchhiker," negative emotion as a force that wants to win, design as destiny, and becoming a neighbor. They also weigh technology's limits and whether spiritual and emotional progress can scale. Episode Highlights "What's really kind is to care about somebody else. And then even more kind than that is to allow somebody else to care about you." "I believe we live in a society that has given up on the idea of emotional or spiritual progress at scale." "Honesty with yourself is a skill." "If you begin to look at unhelpful negative emotion as a force that wants to win, what you'll notice is that we're in a fight that we're not well equipped for." "Meaningful spiritual development is impossible without honesty with other people." About Justin Smith "Justin Smith" is a pseudonym. The guest is the founder of This Life, an audio-only iOS app he describes as an experiment in emotional and spiritual progress, built around anonymity, self-reflection, and what he calls the "spiritual hitchhiker." A Christian shaped by his time in Alcoholics Anonymous and the writing of AA co-founder Bill Wilson, he draws on figures from Martin Luther King Jr. to E.O. Wilson and Fred Rogers to argue that honesty with others is the foundation of spiritual growth. By his request, and in keeping with the episode's premise, his real name, biography, and social accounts are withheld. Learn more about the This Life app on the iOS App Store.

There is a con called the Spanish Prisoner. A letter arrives from a stranger: a wealthy man sits in a foreign jail, and for a small advance to free him, he will reward you many times over. The trick is at least four hundred years old. It is also, give or take a few details, the email sitting in your spam folder this morning. I keep that in mind whenever someone tells me cybercrime is a technology problem. The tools change. The mark does not. We are still robbed through the same prehistoric wiring: a flash of fear, a moment of greed, a decision made in panic before the slow part of the brain wakes up. That is the thread I pulled on with Sarah Armstrong-Smith at InfoSecurity Europe. Sarah spent nearly thirty years in cyber and crisis leadership, was Chief Security Advisor at Microsoft, and now runs Secure Horizons. She has written two books on the human side of all this and sits on the UK Government Cyber Advisory Board. After all of it, she says the thing most people in her position will not say out loud: whatever we are doing is not working. More tools, more money, more people, more AI, and the problem keeps getting worse. Attack, wake-up call, attack, wake-up call. How many wake-up calls, she asks, does anyone need? I asked what keeps her up at night. She described an industrial accident on the scale of 9/11, triggered through a network: the first time a cyber incident kills people in numbers. We have been lucky so far. She doubts luck is a plan. The industry loves a big number, and the number is exactly where the human disappears. X million records stolen, Y terabytes gone. The day before, my friend Geoff White sat in this same chair and described a ransomware attack that shut down a hospital, which meant a woman missed the cancer appointment she had counted on. That is an Armageddon, and it has a name and a face. Sarah, as it happens, knows Geoff's work well enough to carry a line from him on the back of her book. The human element keeps finding the same small circle of people willing to talk about it. So how do we move this from a line item to a fact of society? Her answer is collective resilience. There is no prize for being the last one standing, because we are all wired into the same supply chain, the same dependencies, the same brittle web. And the smallest businesses, the ones without a war chest to ride out the storm, are the ones we discuss the least. Then a statistic. Close to half of all crime in the UK is now fraud or cyber. Around one percent of policing is pointed at it. Read those two numbers again. We fund what we can see, and we want officers on the street because a visible patrol both deters the thief and reassures the neighbourhood. The crime that actually empties our accounts happens somewhere we have agreed not to look. Follow the money, Sarah says, and you rarely stop at one criminal's pocket. It pays for the next thing: drugs, weapons, and more often than people imagine, the trafficking of human beings. Will AI save us? She did not flinch. Whatever you build to detect, the other side uses to evade. The asymmetry holds. Technology is part of the answer and never the whole of it, because the problem was never only technical. So what do we carry forward, and what do we leave behind? We carry the person behind the number: the one who misses the appointment, the small shop that never reopens. We leave behind the fantasy that a clever enough machine will spare us the harder work, which is teaching a whole society to recognize the Spanish Prisoner when it arrives, wearing this year's technology. Sarah's books are linked below, with a second edition on the way. Geoff's conversation is part of this same coverage. And if you want more of these, the newsletter lives at marcociappelli.com.

We live in a culture where it seems that the generations are at war with one another, families are falling apart – some going no contact, and children are increasingly without skills, purpose, and hope. Perhaps this is because we’ve lost sight of the benefits that intergenerational relationships bring. What children need to learn and experience is not what the internet offers. They need the slow, offline activities that grandparents can teach. They need to be reminded of their roots and to receive a heritage of faith, traditions, memories, virtue, and skills. In today’s podcast, Kelly argues for the essential role grandparents play in children’s lives. Both parents and grandparents listening will receive encouragement and practical steps to restore relationships, establish screen-free relational time between grandparents and grandchildren, persevere with kids who may resist slow, character-building activities, and understand why this is part of God’s design for the family.

PODCAST EPISODE | An Analog Brain In A Digital Age — On Location at InfoSecurity Europe 2026 On Location With Sean Martin And Marco Ciappelli Bronwyn Boyle can talk about software vulnerabilities for hours. Talking about her own — the burnout she didn't recognize until someone named it — turned out to be harder, and more important. We sat down at InfoSecurity Europe to talk about the human cost of guarding the machine, and whether our analog brains were ever built for this.
Tony Van Zuilekom, a Halliburton product champion with nearly five decades of experience in petrophysics and formation testing. The discussion highlights the transition of the oil and gas industry from analog to digital technologies, with a focus on the evolution of well logging and reservoir analysis. Van Zuilekom details the capabilities of the Reservoir Examiner and its "Deep" variant, which uses high-rate pumps and high-resolution gauges to investigate deeper into rock formations than traditional methods. A significant portion of the dialogue explains how these advancements allow for real-time data streaming and improved well control while circulating hydrocarbons. Ultimately, this show emphasizes how modular technology and data integration help operators reduce uncertainty and make more economical decisions regarding hydrocarbon recovery.
"Keeping Bitcoin running is the primary concern here. Making sure that Bitcoin is available to be used as money by everyday people, any actor who wants to come onto Bitcoin and send one UTXO from one to another. That's the most important piece for me when thinking about defending Bitcoin.And the biggest difference, of course, is that this is a decentralised system. There is no central controller. There's no central control room giving out commands and saying 'this has to change, you must do this.'We are a decentralised group of individuals who are acting on the network. And so the defence of the system is not down to, say, the CEO dictating that everyone has to have their password be 64 characters and change it every three months, which is bad practise, by the way. It's everyone working together to do their part. So that's the biggest difference." ~ Luke de Wolf I sat down with Luke de Wolf to talk about the real security risks facing Bitcoin today. Luke has spent his career protecting critical industrial control systems like oil pipelines and electrical grids. Now, he is taking that hardcore cybersecurity mindset and applying it to the Bitcoin network in his brand new book, *Defending Bitcoin*. And trust me, it is a conversation you need to hear. We spent a lot of time debating the heated topic of arbitrary data and the drama surrounding BIP 110. Should we enforce strict rules to keep the blockchain pure, or is trying to force a chain split a bigger threat to Bitcoin's integrity as money? Luke actually changed his mind on this recently, and he lays out exactly why the stakes could be too high to play games with consensus. His perspective really cuts through the noise and challenges the tribal thinking happening on both sides. But we didn't just stop there. We also get into mining centralization, selfish mining attacks, and why we need to view Bitcoin as high-stakes critical infrastructure. The decisions we make now could determine if this network survives long-term.

There is a moment in every conversation about cybercrime when the criminal stops being a shadow and becomes a person with a desk, a calendar, and a complaint about Monday. That moment is the one that interests me. For years I've been told cybersecurity is a technical problem. Firewalls, patches, acronyms nobody outside the room understands. And it is, partly. But sit with Geoff White for fifteen minutes at InfoSecurity Europe and the technical layer becomes what it always was underneath: people. People who get out of bed, argue with their partners, drink too much vodka after a breakup, and worry about a grandmother in the hospital — while running an extortion racket that, somewhere else, is shutting down the hospital treating someone else's grandmother. Geoff is an investigative journalist and author who has built a career out of refusing to let crime stay abstract. His new BBC series, Cyber Hack — the strand that grew out of The Lazarus Heist — turns its attention to one of the world's biggest ransomware gangs, Conti. And here is the detail that stayed with me: he has read their mail. Three hundred thousand internal messages, leaked, written by the criminals themselves when they assumed no one was watching. A journalist's candy store, as he called it. Also a nightmare — in Russian, thick with slang, mistranslated so often that “Bitcoin” comes out as “cue ball” and money hides behind the word for “grandmothers.” What fascinates me is not the heist. It is the self-portrait. Because the gang does not see a gang. They see a company. They have clients, they say. Customers. Negotiations conducted professionally. Some of them even hand the victim a report afterward — here is how we got in, here is what you should fix — as though extortion were a security audit with an invoice attached. Geoff has a theory I find hard to argue with: extortion is exhausting work for a smart person to do every day, so the brain quietly rewrites the job description. Criminal becomes businessman. The part that knows the truth shrinks. The story they tell themselves takes over. I'm Italian, so of course The Godfather arrived uninvited in the middle of our conversation. It's a business. Nothing personal. We laughed — I get to make that joke and Geoff doesn't — but underneath the laugh is something genuinely unsettling, and it has nothing to do with hackers. It's about all of us. We are all narrating ourselves into the people we'd prefer to be. The ransomware gang simply does it with higher stakes and worse intentions. This is why storytelling isn't decoration on top of cybersecurity. It's the only tool that makes the invisible visible. Geoff's last BBC series landed at number seven on the US charts, a few slots below Joe Rogan, because he tells these stories as stories — with the technical iceberg sitting safely below the waterline. People learn when they aren't being lectured. And we should learn, quickly. The same week I'm laughing about cue balls, Geoff describes cloning his own mother's voice with an AI tool and phoning her. She thought the line was just a little muffled. I told him what I tell my parents: if anything feels strange, hang up and call me directly. A pre-digital instinct, used as armor against a very digital trick. So what do we carry forward, and what do we leave behind? We carry the stories. We leave behind the comfortable idea that any of this is happening somewhere else, to someone else. The new season of Cyber Hack is expected in July. Listen to it — not because it will scare you, though it might, but because it makes a hidden world legible, and legibility is where every defense we have begins.

BRAM WEINSTEIN ON “BREAKING THROUGH DIGITALLY” https://youtube.com/shorts/Ia_X8A_WhG4?feature=share Transcript Why CEO Communication Is Changing Frazer Rice:Welcome back to the Wealth Actually Podcast. Apologies in advance for the head cold. I'm joined today by Ted Merz of Principals Media. We're discussing how CEOs are navigating communications, the role of social media, and whether traditional media is still relevant. Frazer Rice:Ted, welcome. Ted Merz:Great to be here. Thanks for having me. Frazer Rice:We met at a dinner in New York, and I was struck by your perspective on the shift happening in PR. You advise CEOs on communications—what are you seeing? Ted Merz:We're in the middle of a major structural shift. Traditionally, companies relied on PR firms to secure placements in outlets like CNBC or The Wall Street Journal. That's becoming less effective—those platforms are more competitive, often paywalled, and in some cases shrinking. Ted Merz:At the same time, more people want access to that exposure. So companies are going direct—creating their own content through social media, podcasts, video, and written thought leadership. It allows them to bypass traditional gatekeepers and control their narrative. Risks, Authenticity, and the Learning Curve Frazer Rice:It also gives you more room to develop your ideas. But we've seen cases—Sam Altman, for example—where messaging goes sideways. Is that inexperience or the format? Ted Merz:It's not the format. There's always risk in speaking publicly—people can react negatively. Sometimes it's inexperience, but more broadly, this shift is inevitable. Ted Merz:If you want to reach younger audiences—late millennials and Gen Z—they're not watching CNBC or reading newspapers. They're on YouTube and Instagram. So participation in digital media isn't optional. Ted Merz:That said, there's a learning curve. Executives aren't always comfortable, and mistakes will happen. Frazer Rice:Just look at the reaction to a poorly thought-out tweet—it can spiral quickly. Ted Merz:Exactly. But opting out is the bigger risk. If you're not visible, you're not part of the conversation. Choosing Platforms: LinkedIn, X, YouTube, Substack Frazer Rice:I've leaned into that with this podcast and more activity on LinkedIn and Twitter. But there's a tension—should you focus on one platform or meet clients wherever they are? Ted Merz:It's not about the platform—it's about communication. You're either writing or creating video. Ted Merz:For most businesses, LinkedIn is the best starting point. It's professional, relatively forgiving, and widely accepted. But platforms are evolving quickly. Ted Merz:For example, X (Twitter) is now supporting long-form content—5,000+ word essays—and has become a hub for thought leadership in finance and tech. It's more intense and less forgiving than LinkedIn, but that may be where your audience is. Frazer Rice:That's part of why I moved my podcast to YouTube. If you're not on YouTube, you're invisible to Google. But not everyone is comfortable on video—how do you handle that? Why Video and YouTube Matter for CEOs Ted Merz:I tell them to get comfortable. Ted Merz:YouTube is the new television. It's where attention is going, and it rewards creators financially. Companies need to develop video capability. Ted Merz:Written content conveys ideas well, but video builds trust and familiarity. That's critical today. Ted Merz:Historically, CEOs didn't communicate this way. But now you see leaders like Mark Zuckerberg, Jamie Dimon, and Jon Gray using video regularly. That legitimizes it. Within a few years, this will be standard. Frazer Rice:There's also a push for authenticity. Overproduced or AI-generated content feels hollow, especially with growing fatigue around corporate messaging. Ted Merz:That's right. But authenticity doesn't mean abandoning standards. You can still communicate clearly and thoughtfully. Ted Merz:Also, content is increasingly distributed across platforms—LinkedIn, X, YouTube, Substack. Substack, in particular, is emerging as a strong platform for serious thought leadership. Ted Merz:Importantly, in business, the goal isn't to go viral. It's to create a credible public record—so when someone looks you up, they see someone thoughtful and worth engaging. Measuring Impact: Beyond Vanity Metrics Frazer Rice:That raises the question of metrics. How do you connect social media activity to actual business results? Ted Merz:It's difficult. Social media behaves more like brand advertising than direct response marketing. Ted Merz:Vanity metrics—likes, shares—can be misleading or manipulated. The connection to revenue is often indirect. Ted Merz:But you can see impact anecdotally. One client told me they couldn't tie posts directly to sales, but they were attracting better job candidates who already understood and trusted the firm. That's real value. Frazer Rice:And what about search? It used to be about controlling Google results. Now with AI-driven search, that's changing. Ted Merz:Exactly. Large language models now shape how people are perceived online. You can't fully control that, but you can influence it by consistently publishing clear, factual content. Ted Merz:If you don't, the narrative will be created without you. Personal Brand, Corporate Brand, and Goodwill Frazer Rice:I think of this as building personal and corporate goodwill—like managing the name on the back of the jersey as well as the front. Ted Merz:That's a great way to put it. Ted Merz:We've also seen a cultural shift. In the past, companies emphasized the collective—“there's no I in team.” Today, we're in an attention economy where people connect with individuals more than institutions. Ted Merz:That's why CEOs are becoming more visible. It helps the brand, and it reflects how audiences engage. Ted Merz:Companies are also trying to involve employees, but that's tricky—you can't fully control messaging and still have authenticity. Frazer Rice:Which brings us back to the core tension: authenticity versus control. Ted Merz:Exactly. Is Traditional Media Dead? Frazer Rice:So is traditional media dead? Ted Merz:No—but its role has changed. Ted Merz:Think of it as a pyramid. At the top is legacy media, which provides credibility and validation. Below that are influencers and independent creators. At the base is owned content—what you publish yourself. Ted Merz:Traditional media still matters, but it's harder to access. Increasingly, strong content created independently gets picked up and amplified by legacy outlets. Ted Merz:So the strategy is layered: create your own content, engage across platforms, and let that visibility lead to broader coverage. How to Work With Ted Merz Frazer Rice:That makes sense. Ted, we'll have to continue this conversation—there's more to cover. In the meantime, where can people find you? Ted Merz:LinkedIn is the best place—I'm very active there. You can also find me on X, YouTube, and TikTok. Ted Merz:My primary business focuses on content creation and ghostwriting for CEOs. I'm also building a platform called Pricing Culture, which tracks collectible assets—think of it as a Bloomberg for collectibles—targeted at family offices. Frazer Rice:Terrific. We'll definitely dive into that next time. Thanks for joining. Ted Merz:Thanks for having me. https://www.amazon.com/Wealth-Actually-Intelligent-Decision-Making-1-ebook/dp/B07FPQJJQT/ Keywords: The New CEO Social Media Playbook, CEO Marketing, CEO Social Media, Quest for Authenticity, CEO Branding, Corporate-Speak fatigue, Problems with LinkedIn
In this episode, we dive deep into the fascinating, scandalous, and world-changing history of journalism. We explore how early newspapers fueled revolutions, how media tycoons like Hearst and Pulitzer invented sensational "yellow journalism" to drive profits, and how a fearless group of investigative reporters known as the "Muckrakers" exposed corporate monopolies and horrific working conditions to change American law forever. We also uncover the dark side of early public relations—including how PR experts rebranded the KKK in the 1920s, and how investigative journalists fought to expose them. Finally, we break down the philosophical debates of the broadcast era and look at the massive digital disruption that is reshaping who tells the news today. theredeyereport.com
This week, Anthropic filed for an IPO following a valuation of nearly $1 trillion, which would make it one of the largest IPOs in history. On this week's On the Media, the company's marketing campaign to position it as the “good guy” of AI. Plus, what a literary AI scandal reveals about our vanishing ability to tell what's human and what's not. [01:00] Micah speaks with Brian Merchant, a tech journalist and author of the book and newsletter Blood in the Machine, about Anthropic's successful positioning of itself as the “ethical AI company,” even gaining themselves a seat at the table when the Pope debuted his encyclical on AI, and how fostering this image seems to be paying off in the form of a massive valuation and upcoming IPO. [16:18] Micah sits down with Vauhini Vara, a contributing writer for The Atlantic and the author of Searches: Selfhood in the Digital Age, on the infiltration of AI into literature, and how publishing and journalism have entered a new era of trying to keep AI writing at bay. [27:51] Brooke talks with David Garrett, founder of the new non-profit the Institute for Primary Facts, about the pop-up exhibit he organized in New York City that displayed over 3,400 printed volumes of the Epstein files, and how he intends it to be a “pressure campaign” for accountability. Plus, Andrea Sterling, an online content creator and a survivor of Jeffrey Epstein's abuse, on the impact of seeing the files in real life.

As we cascade further into the digital age, concerns over privacy and data security continue to rise with increasing urgency. As artificial intelligence expands its reach, vast aggregates of personal data are constantly being mined to refine future models. But, the fight for digital privacy is as old as the digital age itself. In Privacy's Defender: My Thirty-Year Fight Against Digital Surveillance, author and Digital Rights Activist, Cindy Cohn, chronicles her career-long battle to preserve our right to privacy online. Part memoir and part legal history for a general audience, Privacy's Defender reminds the reader just how hard-won the privacy rights we enjoy today were. Cohn stresses the societal importance of digital privacy, citing its role in combatting authoritarianism, organizing public protests, and reinforcing other human rights as well. Dismantling the myth that our digital landscape was the sole work of several male charismatic tech founders, Cohn instead paints a fuller picture of our technological history. Through weaving her own story with the history of Crypto Wars, FBI gag orders, and the post-9/11 surveillance state, Cohn reveals how she became a seasoned leader in the early digital rights movement, even helping her to discover her birth parents and a life partner. Along the way, she also details the development of the Electronic Frontier Foundation, which Cohn grew from a ragtag group of lawyers and hackers into one of the most powerful digital rights organizations in the world. As we all know, advancements in technology never cease. Reckoning with its impact on our basic human rights is a conversation that Cindy Cohn has been having for over 30 years. Join Cohn at Town Hall Seattle, for a night of education, storytelling, and a reinvigoration in our fight to protect our rights in the digital age. Cindy Cohn is Executive Director of the Electronic Frontier Foundation. From 2000 to 2015, she served as EFF's Legal Director as well as its General Counsel. Today, she spearheads a team of more than 120 lawyers, activists, and technologists who are dedicated to ensuring that technology supports speech, privacy, and innovation for all the people of the world.

What happens when our modern visual culture, which demands we constantly observe global atrocities on our phones, actually leads to apathy instead of a meaningful moral response? The University of Chicago's Associate Professor of English Language and Literature, Dr. Ben Saltzman, joins host PJ Wehry to discuss the overlooked significance of a common, deeply human reaction.Dr. Saltzman explores the history and meaning of this physical act in his book, Turning Away, The Poetics of an Ancient Gesture. They examine how looking away is frequently not a sign of disengagement, but rather an indication of deep emotional involvement, and how understanding this can help us navigate the horrors of the contemporary world.In this conversation they explore: How the book traces archaic scenes—like the ancient painting of Agamemnon's sacrifice of Iphigenia—by treating them as rocks tossed into a pool, following their cultural and artistic ripples across time. The surprising realization that turning away from a distressing event often signifies a deep engagement with the pain of the world, rather than simple indifference. Why our contemporary habit of scrolling through images of suffering on our phones can create a false sense of moral duty while actually fostering an empty act of looking. The concept of the divided soul, exemplified by Plato's tale of Leontius, which demonstrates how humans experience an inner conflict and oscillation between looking and turning away. How ancient rhetoric and art utilized the covered face to convey states of emotional extremity that existed entirely at the limits of representation. The relationship between covering one's eyes and the acquisition of painful knowledge, illustrated by figures ranging from a newly fallen Adam and Eve to a young girl watching a cruel scientific experiment on a bird.This is a conversation for anyone interested in literary studies, art history, and the humanities who wants to understand the historical weight behind our everyday instincts and how we process the painful realities of our modern age.Make sure to check out Dr. Saltzman's book: Turning Away: The Poetics of an Ancient Gesture
In today's episode, Dr. Ruston interviews tech journalist Manoush Zomorodi about her book Body Electric and a movement to normalize periodic movement breaks from screens. Zomorodi talks about research that shows five minutes of gentle movement every 30 minutes can significantly improve glucose, blood pressure, focus, mood, and energy, and explains a large self-reported project with 20,000 participants testing breaks every 30 minutes, hour, or two hours. They discuss why standing desks aren't enough, how movement supports circulation and cognition, practical habit strategies, and parenting approaches to help motivate kids to move, such as framing movement as something kids "get to" do.

This workshop is designed for pastors and ministry leaders who want to explore how digital tools can enhance—not replace—biblical discipleship.

Memphis and Chicago serve as critical logistical hubs processing millions of freight containers annually, yet this infrastructure has enabled sophisticated syndicates to execute cyber-enabled cargo thefts that blend white-collar fraud with street-level fencing operations. Criminals hack freight broker databases, impersonate legitimate carriers, and divert high-value shipments such as copper coils, electronics, and liquor before legitimate operators arrive. This episode examines the mechanisms, economic toll, law enforcement challenges, and broader implications for U.S. supply chain security.

Tracing its origins from the 1970s to today, this timely book examines the evolution of food porn as a desire-inducing aesthetic practice and a visually extravagant food spectacle. Through discussions on class, gender, sexuality and national identities, Food Porn: Food Aesthetics in a Digital Age (Bristol University Press, 2026) by Dr. Jonatan Leer & Dr. Stinne Gunder Strøm Krogager questions whether food porn reinforces social hierarchies or empowers individuals.

Guest: Jordan HallStorm chasing has always lived right at the edge—part science, part instinct, and part, let's be honest… a little bit of chaos. But these days, it's not just about being in the right place at the right time—it's also about capturing it, sharing it, and bringing people along for the ride in real time. Today on Weather Geeks, we're talking with storm chaser Jordan Hall—someone who's spent countless hours on the road tracking down everything from classic supercells to high-risk, high-reward setups… all while navigating what it means to be a storm chaser in the age of social media.

Most credit cards have that little 3- or 4-digit security code you constantly get asked for when shopping online. It can feel like a nuisance—but that tiny number plays a surprisingly important role in reducing fraud in a very simple and effective way. https://www.chase.com/personal/credit-cards/education/basics/why-do-some-sites-not-require-cvv We tend to think of financial advice as timeless: buy a house, invest for the long term, diversify your portfolio, put your money in index funds. But history tells a much messier story. There were periods when stocks performed terribly, when home ownership was a bad investment, and when other “sensible” advice turned out to be disastrously wrong. Joseph Moore, historian, investor, and author of How to Get Rich in American History: 300 Years of Financial Advice That Worked (& Didn't) (https://amzn.to/4uDCdrv), explains how financial “wisdom” changes over time, why so much money advice is shaped by the era we happen to live in, and what history can teach us about building wealth today. We've all heard the warnings about sitting too much and spending too much time staring at screens. But modern life practically demands it. Hours at a desk, then more hours scrolling, streaming, emailing, and checking notifications. The problem is, researchers are beginning to discover that this screen-heavy lifestyle may quietly affect far more than we realize—from energy and sleep to mood, focus, and long-term health. Manoush Zomorodi, award-winning journalist, host of NPR's TED Radio Hour, and author of Body Electric: The Hidden Health Costs of the Digital Age and New Science to Reclaim Your Well-Being (https://amzn.to/3PraStx), shares what science is uncovering about the physical and mental toll of modern digital life—and why small, surprisingly simple changes may make a meaningful difference. Revenge can feel incredibly satisfying—at least in your imagination. But what happens after you actually get even with someone?
