Let's talk about how to win. 

The Skull Crawlers Present: Suspend Disbelief 19We are joined by Kate and Mark "Doc" Cody, an indigenous married couple that love all things spooky. Mark "Doc" Cody is a marine, now living his civilian life. He's Kiowa and full of all kinds of stories. Doc explains to us his military experience being stationed at 29 Palms, and the ghost stories that followed. Instagram.com/warchiefcodyKate Cody was a Canadian Indigenous Cree woman who was stripped from her roots though the foster system. Her adopted family wouldn't let her talk about her culture, learn about her culture, and forced her to pick up a bible. She tells her story about decolonizing her mindset and finding her indigenous roots. instagram.com/alilwonderlandCary tells the haunting tales of Operation Post Rock, where 8 U.S. Marines had to endure ghosts, spirits, and demonic entities for 60 days in exclusion in the deserts of Afghanistan in 2009.

Suspension of Disbelief, Confirmation Bias, Cognitive Dissonance: The conditioning programs implemented via the various media.

The DOJ now claims there is no Epstein file, no list of influential 'friends,' no murder, and no one will be prosecuted for associating with the convicted sexual predator. After promises, not explanations. The remaining questions, what the DOJ statement means, and what's next. Plus all of the Monday morning breaking news on the 7-7-25 Bob Rose Show

In this episode, Robert covers the “disbelief rally” and explains why the loudest skeptics might be missing the bigger picture. He breaks down what's really powering the market beneath the surface, how to spot the signals most investors overlook, and why this setup could lead to one of the strongest runs in years. From stimulus tailwinds to the psychology of missing out, he shares how he's positioning now and why comparison is still the ultimate thief of joy. Plus, a listener question on missed opportunity regrets, and how to stay sharp during a bull market.

Co-directors Richard Moore and John Doggett Williams invite audiences into the space of pain, discomfort, and body exploration with their searing, curiously tender, and wonderfully life-enriching documentary Stelarc Suspending Disbelief. This occasionally profound experience follows performance artist Stelarc, a Cyprus-born Australian artist who was raised in the suburbs of Melbourne and found a path towards exploring mortality, death, and what it means to be alive through artwork that many might consider extreme or provocative, but for this pain-experiencing audience member, I found his artwork all embracing in its presentation of discomfort and finding peace within that space.Those things, and many more, sit behind this conversation with Richard Moore, recorded ahead of the documentaries screenings at Perth's Revelation Film Festival on 9th and 11th of July, and the Castlemaine Documentary Festival on 4 July 2025.

“The subject of affairs, I think it's of interest to everybody. We have all had an Oedipal experience - we've all been babies who have at some point realized that we are not the only person. We're not perfectly fused with our mother, and she has other things to do, and there may be a father. We've all known what rejection feels like, and probably betrayal, and I think that affairs are in our unconscious. I think that's sort of evident in the way that most great novels, most great films, or at least many, have an affair at their heart. From Anna Karenina to Madame Bovary to Fatal Attraction, I think this is something that is just interesting. I wanted to write about affairs because I think they are a way of showing what psychoanalysis can do in a field in which everyone has an opinion on, and probably most people, in some way, have been indirectly or directly affected by. That was really the sort of the genesis for wanting to write about affairs.” Episode Description: We consider the challenge of writing about dynamic treatments in a manner that is accessible to the non-clinical reader. Juliet's book about affairs opens up this widely recognized experience and adds intrapsychic insights without using emotionally - distancing jargon. She introduces us to individuals who have been involved in affairs, with carefully protected confidentiality, who generally reveal the power of past experiences to influence adult choices. Some end happily, and some end in agony. Juliet demonstrates the usefulness of bringing a dynamic listening to both accepting and deepening each individual's lifelong search for love.   Our Guest: Juliet Rosenfeld is a psychoanalyst and a member of the British Psychoanalytical Society, London. She studied at Oxford before a 15-year career in advertising and marketing, ending up in Government Communications. During this time, she began a Master's at the Tavistock and Portman Trust in Organizational Consultancy and started training as a psychotherapist a year later. She qualified as an integrative psychotherapist in 2012. Juliet was an elected trustee of the UK Council of Psychotherapy for four years, and is presently one of two clinician Trustees at the Freud Museum London, Sigmund Freud's final home. Juliet is the author of two books, The State of Disbelief ( 2020) and Affairs, True Stories of Love, Lies, Hope and Desire. Juliet's broader interest is in how psychoanalysis might be more accessible, and its ideas put into non-clinical language for audiences who may never be able to access psychotherapy themselves but are curious about what the unconscious means and what goes on in the consulting room.

BT and Sal dive into a lively discussion about their cinematic viewing habits, revealing surprising gaps and strong opinions. Sal admits to shockingly never seeing Die Hard with a Vengeance and only recently watching the original Die Hard, much to BT's disbelief and comedic outrage over Sal's qualms about John McClane's bare feet. Their conversation quickly spirals into a broader "guy movie" quiz, with BT challenging Sal on classics like Scarface, The Godfather, Goodfellas, and Shawshank Redemption, while Sal reveals he's missed out on Fight Club, Heat, and Rambo, leading to further playful jabs and a call for Sal to expand his action film horizons.

Dr. Aleksandra Treglown has spent years listening to children recount the worst moments of their lives—only to watch their truths be ignored. In this episode, she reveals how disbelief—by courts, by law enforcement, and by the public—is not just a barrier to justice, but a form of systemic violence against women and children. Through her research and frontline work, she exposes the devastating power of disbelief, and the urgent need to confront it. ⁠⁠⁠https://www.patreon.com/knoxrobinson⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠https://www.amandaknox.com⁠⁠ Bluesky: @⁠⁠amandaknox.com⁠⁠ | @wisecracker.bsky.social IG: ⁠⁠@amamaknox⁠⁠ | ⁠⁠@emceecarbon⁠⁠ Free: My Search for Meaning: ⁠⁠https://www.hachettebookgroup.com/titles/amanda-knox/free/9781538770719/ Learn more about your ad choices.

Throughout the book of Judges, one can see Israel's spiritual cycle of disobedience, judgment, cries for help, rescue by judges, and then relapse. They start strong (1:1-4) but fail to fully obey, blaming iron chariots (1:19) and enslaving some (1:28). Key lessons from Judges chapters 1 and 2: Disbelief breeds disaster. Forgetting God's works leads to abandoning Him. Idols enslave; God saves. Flawed judges can't fully save, but God's covenant points to Jesus, who delivers and atones. Cure: repent, obey, pray, and trust God.

Much of the world was expecting an eventual fallout between Donald Trump and Elon Musk - but the speed and intensity of their separation has been dramatic and - let's face it - quite entertaining. The question is will it damage the President - or damage Musk himself? Piers Morgan is joined by Elon's dad Errol Musk for his view - and to ask what he knows about his son's alleged drug use. Also debating the subject is Outkick founder Clay Travis, host of ‘Breaking Points' Krystal Ball, veteran Republican strategist Roger Stone and host of ‘Pushing The Limits' Brian Shapiro. Piers also speaks to Democrat congressman for California Rep. Eric Swalwell on the anti-ICE protests gripping LA and the President's decision to deploy the national guard, against the wishes of Governor Newsom. And Piers then talks to Riley Gaines about her astonishing feud with Simone Biles.

My returning guest this week is Will Gervais (@willgervais.com‬), a professor who studies evolutionary and cultural psychology at the Centre for Culture and Evolution at Brunel University London. He recently published a book called Disbelief: The Origins of Atheism in a Religious Species and it's genuinely a must read for anyone who either believes in god or doesn't, so I've brought him on to pick his brain on what makes some people theists and others atheists.Disbelief: https://www.prometheusbooks.com/9781633889248/disbelief/Music by GW RodriguezEditing by Adam WikSibling Pod:Philosophers in Space: https://0gphilosophy.libsyn.com/Support us at Patreon.com/EmbraceTheVoidIf you enjoy the show, please Like and Review us on your pod app, especially iTunes.

We often think about "making things make sense" in worldbuilding and building internal consistency, scientific realism, and other logic-based considerations into our fiction -- But what happens when your worldbuilding principle is “What would be awesome?" Jim C. Hines, who embraced this principle for a forthcoming book, joins us to explore the possibilities! The Rule of Cool, credit to, is defined thusly: "The limit of the Willing Suspension of Disbelief for a given element is directly proportional to its awesomeness." In other words, if it's cool enough, you can get away with it. This often applies to sci-fi tech and fantasy magic. Let's be real, things like faster-than-light travel, lightsabers, and starfighters will always be "rule of cool", in one way or another (so far as we currently understand physics), and magic doesn't have to be something you break down and quantify and explain perfectly. So what can we play with? And where do those decisions intersect with narrative tone, genre standards, and reader expectations? [Transcript TK] Our Guest: Jim C. Hines is the author of the Magic ex Libris series, the Princess series of fairy tale retellings, the humorous Goblin Quest trilogy, and the Fable Legends tie-in Blood of Heroes. He also won the 2012 Hugo Award for Best Fan Writer. His latest novel is Terminal Peace, book three in the humorous science fiction Janitors of the Post-Apocalypse trilogy. He lives in mid-Michigan with his family.

In this week's podcast, our hosts reflect on the recent statistics - which show that the average social worker caseload in the UK has fallen to the lowest in recorded history - considering frontline reactions to the news, and the credibility of the figures reported. Do these statistics align with the experiences of frontline social workers? Is a decline in agency social workers a cause for optimism, or concern? And both Vince and Cara share their strategies for improving conditions and reducing burnout and vacancies. What do YOU think? Join the conversation, every Friday morning.

Ever had a moment where life feels so unrealistic that you wonder, “Is this really my life?” The journey through child loss often blurs the lines between reality and disbelief, leaving us feeling disconnected from the life we're living. In this episode, I share a story of how The Holy Spirit showed up in an unexpected way—reminding me that even in the deepest grief, He is taking our stories and making it our song.  We'll talk about: How trauma impacts your sense of reality after loss. The role of the Holy Spirit in transforming moments of deep pain. A reminder that this isn't the end of your story—God is still at work.

  Dr. Olivia Cacchione, a musicologist, sat with Patrick in the parlor to discuss her current work and study of music and sound in Victorian seances. Olivia also shared about years of uncomfortable out-of-body experiences and hearing voices that led to her being diagnosed with Temporal Lobe Epilepsy. Plus skepticism, haunted listening, enchantment, possibility vs. disbelief, Victorians and the accordion, the channeled music of Rosemary Brown, and asking the question, “How does music haunt us?” Visit BigSeance.com/257 for more info. Other Listening Options Direct Download Link   In this episode: Intro :00 Dr. Olivia Cacchione studies the sounds of ghosts and hauntings throughout history. She's a musicologist who earned her PhD at Northwestern University and received a Mellon Fellowship to conduct her extensive archival research across England and America. She is currently working on a book that highlights the role of music and sound in Victorian seances. Olivia's dissertation examined the cultural history of hearing, questioning how music haunts us, with an emphasis on the lived experience of the Victorian-era spiritualist séance. She covered Daniel Dunglas Home's accordion, the Davenport Brothers' musical cabinet, and lesser known mediums like Jennie Lord, who practically invented the musical seance. And Olivia wants you to know that she has a cat who is proudly named Madame Blavatsky. You can learn more about Olivia Cacchione and her work by visiting welcometotheseance.com. :45 What is a musicologist? 2:02 From harp performance to a PhD in musicology. 3:44 Patrick once again nerds out about the theremin. 6:12 More on where this interest in Victorian Spiritualism came from, and the pushback from her colleagues regarding her chosen area of study. 7:32 Hearing Voices. “When I was 15, I began ‘hearing things.' It took me ten years to receive a diagnosis of Temporal Lobe Epilepsy.” 10:51 Olivia's voices and out-of-body experiences. Are they paranormal? Or are they just symptoms of her diagnosis? 15:24 Enchantment. 16:45 “[The episodes were] very dark and quite scary, actually.” 18:05 Possibility vs Disbelief. 19:03 Victorian Spiritualists and Seances. For Victorians, it was really dark at night! 21:49 Haunted Listening. 27:56 Patrick reminisces about experiences years ago with his “rapper” from doing EVP research and experiments. 29:28 “How does music haunt us? What does it mean to be haunted, mesmerized, enchanted, or spellbound by a work?” 32:24 Check out Jerry Goldsmith's score for the 1985 film, The Explorers. 35:40 “[Victorians] simply had a different relationship with music.” 39:09 Music as a trigger. 41:11 Victorians and the accordion. 42:47 Residual music from the Bird Cage Theatre. 43:57 A Musical Seance featuring Rosemary Brown, who claimed to channel music from the great composers. 46:01 Alfred Russel Wallace. 48:28 “Before I was diagnosed, I absolutely thought, 'Maybe I'm psychic.' I wanted to lean in that direction with it.” 50:07 “People hear what I'm studying and they immediately want to tell me their own ghost stories. And you realize just how many people have ghost stories, and I love hearing them.” 51:12 Olivia's final thoughts. 54:40 Outro 56:27   Resources welcometotheseance.com     The Big Seance Podcast can be found right here, on Apple Podcasts, Pandora, Spotify, TuneIn Radio, Amazon Music, Audible, iHeart Radio, and YouTube.
