The Historical Disappearance of Mary: Colleague James Tabor explains that following the crucifixion, Mary disappears from the biblical record, likely dying before the 70 AD destruction of Jerusalem; while early Christians fled to Pella under Simon's leadership, traditions suggest Mary died on Mount Zion, with Tabor arguing she was "written out" of the story by later traditions. 1650
Earlier this fall, there were no rap songs in the Billboard Top 40 for the first time since 1990. Is this just a blip in commercial popularity, or is it a sign that hip hop is losing its grip on mainstream America?
What do you think you might be saying on your deathbed? Will you be looking back at your life with a sense of joy and completeness, or, do you think that perhaps you might be consumed with regret?

The Rickey Smiley Morning Show kicks off with a sharp look at global and political headlines, starting with President Trump’s announcement of a U.S.–brokered peace deal between the Democratic Republic of Congo and Rwanda—despite skepticism from experts who note that rebel groups weren’t included and conflict remains ongoing. The team also examines concerns over the U.S. benefiting from Congolese minerals while Congolese citizens remain on the American travel ban list. Meanwhile, in a story that stunned listeners, the crew discusses the tragic shooting death of Chicago mother Remika Meeks-Blackmon, with new details showing the alleged shooter was romantically tied to the same man—who shockingly fist-bumped her afterward.

Have you ever noticed how easily motherhood can slide into a rhythm powered by guilt instead of joy? Many moms spend their days giving endlessly, rarely pausing to ask for what they need. In this episode, Whitney sits down with Heather Chauvin, author of Dying to Be a Good Mother, for a conversation about rewriting the rules of what it means to be a good mom. Chauvin shares how a stage-four cancer diagnosis forced her to listen to her own inner voice, a decisive moment that shifted everything. She explains why honoring personal needs isn't selfish, it's connective, and how it can deepen relationships with our children, work, and ourselves. Chauvin also introduces the way she structures her days through her Energetic Time Management method, a system that helps moms build their schedules around the feelings they want to cultivate, not the obligations they're trying to survive. She breaks down how energy, not hours, should lead the calendar, and walks through her signature tool: Energetic Time Management, a practical framework for planning life in alignment, reducing mental load, and reclaiming self-connection without sacrificing impact. Tune in now to learn how to bring more joy into motherhood without apology. For many women, this approach marks the turning point between burnout and brightness, proving that a well-resourced woman contributes differently, loves differently, and leads differently. Here's what you can look forward to in this episode: The pressure and unrealistic expectations of mothers to self-sacrifice Considering your needs as an act of rebellion Removing guilt and pressure and feeling more alive Energetic Time Management - Figure out how you want to feel and allocate that time to how you want to feel Seeing challenges in parenting as an opportunity for growth and a deeper connection Reflection question to ponder: How would you parent or live if you didn't care what other people thought?

“All I want is a place to live and a job.” – Nothing But a Man (1964) This week, we're taking time to honor the life and legacy of filmmaker Michael Roemer, who passed away in May 2025. Roemer's work has always stood apart as quiet, honest, deeply human, and we start with the film that introduced so many people to his voice: Nothing But a Man. It's a landmark in independent cinema, a National Film Registry inductee, and one of the most compassionate portrayals of Black working-class life ever put on screen. From there, we spend some time with Roemer's other major works, Vengeance Is Mine and Dying. Each of these films shows a different side of what made him such a singular filmmaker: his empathy, his curiosity, and his ability to sit with people at their most vulnerable without ever forcing sentiment or judgment. This episode is both a reflection and a celebration: an appreciation of a filmmaker whose perspective mattered, and whose films continue to resonate in ways that feel as immediate now as they did when he first made them.

In this deeply personal episode of Infinite Life, Infinite Wisdom, Susan Grau shares her journey with infertility, grief, and the painful longing to be a mother. She opens up about her struggles with infertility, including six surgeries, failed in vitro attempts, and the emotional toll it took on her. Susan reflects on the moments of desperation, from pretending to be pregnant in baby stores to enduring the excruciating heartbreak of repeatedly seeing negative pregnancy tests.Despite all the pain, Susan's story is one of resilience, faith, and ultimately, empowerment. She discusses the emotional rollercoaster of infertility and the support that her husband provided during this difficult journey. Susan also talks about the transformative moment when she adopted her first child, and the overwhelming joy she felt when she held her baby girl for the first time.However, her story doesn't end there. Susan shares how the desire for a family continued to shape her life and how, after many years of trying, the unexpected blessings of motherhood arrived in the form of another beautiful daughter. She speaks openly about the pain of failed adoptions, the emotional turmoil of wanting children but not being able to have them biologically, and how her grief and yearning ultimately led to a deeper understanding of her soul's path.Through all the hardship, Susan's message is clear: the journey of infertility and grief isn't just about the loss, it's about finding empowerment in the process. Susan emphasizes that no one goes through these trials alone, whether it's infertility, grief, or loss of any kind. Support is key, and understanding the pain of others is part of the healing process.In This Episode:[00:00] Introduction to Susan's Journey with Infertility & Grief[02:00] The Struggles of Infertility: A Personal Story[05:00] The Pain of Repeated Failure and the Quest for Parenthood[08:00] The Role of Support Systems During Infertility and Loss[10:00] Adoption: The First Step Towards Becoming a Mom[13:00] The Unexpected Blessing: The Birth of a Second Daughter[16:00] The Emotional Toll of Failed Adoptions and Loss[19:00] Empowerment Through Grief: How to Find Strength in Your Struggles[21:00] The Power of Support: Understanding the Importance of Being There for Loved Ones[23:00] Learning to Trust Spirit and the Path Ahead[26:00] Grief and Empowerment: Overcoming Obstacles to Find New Avenues[28:00] Final Thoughts on Infertility, Loss, and Empowerment[30:00] The Importance of Letting Go and Allowing Spirit to Guide YouNotable Quotes“Grief is in the corner doing pushups, waiting for you to be vulnerable.

If you've ever wondered if your loved ones who've passed are okay, or still with you, you're not alone. And if you're missing your loved ones in spirit even as you celebrate the holidays, this episode may be the one you need to hear. My guest, Scott Taylor, shares how a spontaneous and deeply spiritual event helped him navigate tragic loss and healed him in ways he could never have imagined. Here's a preview of Scott's story and the episode:In 1981, Scott Taylor's life was changed forever when his girlfriend Mary Fran and her son Nolan were fatally injured from a car accident. As 7-year-old Nolan lay dying, Scott witnessed Mary Fran's spirit escort Nolan to the Other Side. As this transpired, Scott's consciousness spontaneously joined them, resulting in the most profoundly transformative experience of Scott's life. Decades later, Scott teaches others how to access expanded states of consciousness and profound spiritual healing.

The Spirit World is Already Here by Autumn Dickson We have the opportunity to read two revelations this week. Despite the different times in which they were given, the two revelations were placed together in the Doctrine and Covenants, and they hold more power in that manner. The first recorded vision was received by Joseph Smith, and the second recorded vision was given to Joseph F. Smith. I want to share a couple of verses from the section given to Joseph F. Smith regarding the spirit world. Doctrine and Covenants 138:22-24 22 Where these (the wicked, unrepentant, rebellious) were, darkness reigned, but among the righteous there was peace; 23 And the saints rejoiced in their redemption, and bowed the knee and acknowledged the Son of God as their Redeemer and Deliverer from death and the chains of hell. 24 Their countenances shone, and the radiance from the presence of the Lord rested upon them, and they sang praises unto his holy name. These verses talk about the spirit world on the other side of the veil. It gives us a glimpse into what life holds depending on how you chose to live your life and how those choices affected who you became. Taking the time to imagine what it will be like is powerful, especially when you've lost someone you love. But rather than read it from the perspective of the spirit world, I want you to read it again as if it's speaking about where we dwell now. Despite its insight into the spirit world, it can also be a very accurate description of the mortal life we're living in. In the fallen mortality where we dwell, there are people who want nothing to do with the Savior and His gospel. There are many who want the exact opposite of what He stands for and believe the Savior to be oppressive. In those specific places and hearts, darkness reigns. God doesn't necessarily send darkness or make their world terrible; it's what they've invited into their lives. Important tangent here. This gets slightly tricky because I don't believe all non-Christians are dark people. Rather, I believe that at any given moment, we are inviting or shunning darkness. There are a lot of people who accept so much of Christ's gospel even if they do not yet accept Him personally. They have invited portions of light into their lives by living their lives in a Christlike manner. So not immediately accepting Christ doesn't mean you live in utter darkness and allow it to reign over you. I do believe they're missing out on light, but that doesn't mean I assume they are voluntarily inviting darkness to rule their lives. Let's keep going on with reading the description of the spirit world and mortality.. So there are people who don't want Christ and voluntarily shun Him. They want the darkness. They like it. They don't see any reason to change. In other places, sometimes very nearby, there are Saints who are living in the same space but find themselves rejoicing in their redemption. They love the Savior and trust Him. They acknowledge Him and worship Him. Then, of course, there is a whole spectrum between these groups of people. Even on that spectrum, we're finding ourselves moving back and forth depending on what we're inviting and focusing on. Despite the fact that we can find people all along that spectrum, I want to bring your attention to one other grouping: there are Saints who are trying to live the gospel but still have not found the reason to rejoice. They don't always feel hope or peace. They don't feel the radiance of the Lord shining down on them. We believe in Christ and the gospel, but have we found salvation? We read this in Alma. Alma 34:31 Yea, I would that ye would come forth and harden not your hearts any longer; for behold, now is the time and the day of your salvation; and therefore, if ye will repent and harden not your hearts, immediately shall the great plan of redemption be brought about unto you. Immediately. Not just in the spirit world. Immediately. If you truly find Christ, the plan of redemption is brought immediately. Today can be the day of your salvation if you repent and don't harden your heart. Immediately, you can find yourself in the same state as those dwelling in spirit paradise. You can rejoice in the Redeemer who freed you from hell and any aspects of it that you may still be clinging to. The radiance of the presence of the Lord can shine upon you. If you do not yet feel these aspects of salvation, I have a small warning for you. Dying and going to the other side does not immediately bring about those feelings. Dying has very little to do with it. Experiencing spiritual paradise stems from your relationship with Christ. Dying happens somewhere along the way for good reason, but experiencing salvation doesn't necessarily wait for death. It's just waiting for you. When was the last time you let yourself rejoice in Christ? When was the last time you chose to trust Him so deeply that it swallowed up your pain and carried it for a while? When was the last time you chose gratitude for His promises even if you couldn't choose gratitude for what was directly going on in your life? Spiritual paradise is a choice, not just a destination on the other side. What happens there is just a continuation of what happens here. You don't change on the other side unless you go through the same process of changing that you have to experience on this side. I love the verse from Alma 34 because it doesn't say, “Follow the Law of Moses perfectly and then you will experience salvation immediately.” It says, “Repent and soften your heart and then you will experience salvation immediately.” Change! Soften! Trust! He loves you and is mighty to save. When you find it within yourself to say, “I'm going to try putting weight on these promises,” you'll find solid ground. Even if everything comes to disaster in mortality, there is solid ground in Christ. I testify that trusting Christ and taking Him at His word was one of the most joyful decisions I ever made. Though I obviously fluctuate in that trust as I move about life, continually spending time with Him every day has made that trust more consistent. Spending time with Him every day has forced me to remember His promises. As I've moved about my daily life and run into new challenges and all of the pitfalls of mortality, I have found rejoicing alongside my pain. It didn't come from living the gospel more perfectly; it came from trusting Him more perfectly. I testify that spirit paradise or allowing darkness to reign are choices we make on a daily basis; they're not just destinations in the spirit world. I testify that the day of your salvation, the day you find rejoicing in Christ, can be today, and you don't even have to die in order to find it. You just have to trust.

What's the episode about? In this episode, hear Professor Douglas Davies on thedevelopment of death studies, ‘words against death', the ‘dividual', religion, ‘sacred secrets', the ‘opacity of the self' and the ‘curated everything', keeping a dream diaries since 1979, the over-optimism of posthumanism, wealth inequality, & the privilege of intellectuals as ‘people who think'.Who is Douglas? This introduction to Douglas Davies was written by DrGeorgina Robinson, who awarded Douglas with the Lifetime Achievement Award at the 2025 Death, dying and Disposal Conference in Utrecht, the Netherlands. Douglas Davies is a name known to all who work in theinterdisciplinary field of Death Studies. From early career scholars, fresh in the field, through to senior colleagues who have themselves deeply influenced the field, the stories that people tell of their experiences of Douglas are always warm and encouraging, yet unique to the individual: the time and careDouglas gives to all who encounter him is a true testament of his character. As a founding member of ASDS and editorial board member ofMortality Douglas has always offered a home to Death Studies scholars, having hosted numerous Death Studies events, including the International Conference onthe Social Context of Death, Dying, and Disposal and the inaugural International Symposium of the Death Online Research Network (DORS#1), as well as events for funerary professionals, including numerous Summer Schools of theNational Association of Funeral Directors. Alongside these external events, Douglas has also welcomedcountless students, researchers, and professional colleagues to Durham during his time as Director of Durham University's Centre for Death and Life Studies through visiting professorships, library scholarships to work in the Archivesof the Cremation Society of Great Britain, alongside conferences hosted by the Centre. What is unique about Douglas is that despite his countless works whichhave deeply influenced scholarly thinking within the field, more often than not, it is a conversation or engagement with him that sticks with Death Studies scholars: his kindness and encouraging nature are second-to-none. Nevertheless, the significant impact that his countlessworks have had – both academically and practically, with his work impacting policy changes and the funeral sector itself – must not be understated (e.g., Mors Britannica, 2015; Death, Ritual and Belief, 3 editions 1997, 2002, 2017;Natural Burial, 2012; A Brief History of Death, 2005; Theology of Death, 2008). Significantly, 2025 marks 50 years of Douglas's career in academia: how fitting that the association he was formative in establishing would award him with thehonour of Lifetime Achievement Award this year.

On the International News Review... Saturday Mornings Show” host Glenn van Zutphen and co-host Neil Humphreys welcome Bloomberg News Editor Joanna Ossinger to unpack the headlines dominating Asia. We begin in Hong Kong, where tragedy has struck with the death toll rising to over 130 after the devastating Tai Po fire. Officials now admit fire alarms were not working properly, raising urgent questions about safety standards and accountability. Next, we turn to Thailand, where “once in 300 years” rainfall has triggered catastrophic floods across Southeast Asia. Joanna explains the scale of the disaster and its implications for climate resilience in the region. Closer to home, Singapore Prime Minister Lawrence Wong’s remarks on the China-Japan spat over Taiwan have sparked a wave of online barbs and spin from Chinese netizens. We explore what this reaction reveals about regional sensitivities and Singapore’s longstanding diplomatic stance. And finally, a bizarre story from Bangkok: temple staff were stunned when a woman, believed dead, began moving inside her coffin moments before cremation.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Breathwork is one of the most powerful tools in biohacking, yet most people only experience the surface level techniques. When you use it the right way, breathwork can upgrade your brain, strengthen your nervous system, improve sleep, and open awareness states that amplify longevity and human performance. This episode features Ishan Shivanand, a globally celebrated yogic scholar, mental health researcher, and bestselling author who was raised in the monasteries of India under Mahasiddha Avdhoot Shivanand. He carries one of the world's oldest Shiv Yogi lineages and created the clinically validated Yoga of Immortals method, which has helped millions reverse anxiety, depression, insomnia, burnout, and trauma. Together, Host Dave Asprey and Ishan reveal how lineage level breath practices shape consciousness, neuroplasticity, and emotional resilience. Watch this episode on YouTube for the full video experience: https://www.youtube.com/@DaveAspreyBPR Host Dave Asprey and Ishan explore the full arc of ancient yogic training, from how breathwork directs prana through the body to how chanting alters brain states, emotional regulation, and nervous system function. They break down the role of visualization in building neuroplasticity, the symbolism and physics of sacred sound, and the science of moving awareness through the spine. The conversation moves into rarely discussed topics including the yogic art of choosing one's death, how advanced practitioners leave the body, the meaning of immortality in spiritual traditions, and how dharma shapes whether long life becomes a blessing or a burden. You will hear how ancient monks trained through martial arts, mantra repetition, sacred geometry, gold symbolism, alchemy, and the cultivation of higher states of consciousness, and how these practices compare to modern biohacking tools like fasting, ketosis, nootropics, supplements, sleep optimization, functional medicine, and mitochondrial support. This episode shows you how Eastern mystical training and Western performance science intersect and how these teachings fit naturally within the Smarter Not Harder framework. This conversation also covers plant medicine, psychedelics, and the difference between ancient ceremonial use and modern recreational misuse. You will hear how lineage based training uses breath, awareness, and mantra to alter redox balance, regulate the autonomic nervous system, strengthen energy production, and shape brain optimization at the deepest levels. You'll Learn: • Why breathwork changes brain states faster than basic meditation and how it drives neuroplasticity • How chanting affects the vagus nerve, emotional regulation, and nervous system balance • How visualization strengthens nerve pathways, trauma resolution, and sleep optimization • The meaning behind sacred sound, vibration, and the origins of consciousness in ancient lineage training • Why monks train with martial arts, mantra repetition, and sacred geometry to enhance awareness • How yogic philosophy approaches immortality, choosing one's death, and leaving the body consciously • Why dharma shapes whether long life becomes a blessing or a curse • How plant medicine differs when used ceremonially versus recreationally • How to integrate these teachings into your own longevity, performance, and human potential strategy Dave Asprey is a four-time New York Times bestselling author, founder of Bulletproof Coffee, and the father of biohacking. With over 1,000 interviews and 1 million monthly listeners, The Human Upgrade brings you the knowledge to take control of your biology, extend your longevity, and optimize every system in your body and mind.
