Have you ever met someone named Lucy and thought, "She really looks like a Lucy"? As strange as it sounds, scientists have discovered there may be more truth to that feeling than you realize. Your name may actually influence the way you look—or at least the way other people see you. Listen as I explain this fascinating research and what it reveals about the surprising connection between names and faces.https://www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pnas.2405334121 We all give away far more than we think. Tiny facial expressions, subtle gestures, the way we sit, stand, or even touch our face can reveal confidence, nervousness, deception, attraction, and much more. Once you know what to look for, it's almost impossible not to notice these hidden signals. Joining me is Peter Collett, a social psychologist who taught at Oxford University and is internationally recognized for his expertise in human behavior and nonverbal communication. He is author of How To Tell What People Are Thinking From the Bedroom to the Boardroom (https://amzn.to/3WVytDM). This conversation is packed with practical insights that can help you read people more accurately in everyday life. What is the brightest thing in the universe? The stickiest substance? The loudest sound? The coldest place? The fastest, slowest, biggest and smallest things imaginable? Nature has some astonishing record holders—and many of them are far stranger than fiction. David Darling, science writer, astronomer, and author of nearly 50 books, including Ka-boom!: The Science of Extremes (https://amzn.to/3X5gTgJ), takes us on a tour of the most incredible extremes in science, nature, and the universe. You'll come away with a collection of facts you'll be repeating to people for weeks. Why does food often seem to taste better after a simple ritual—like singing "Happy Birthday" before eating cake? It turns out the ritual itself may be changing your experience in ways you never realized. Listen as I explain the surprising psychology behind this effect and why small rituals can make everything from meals to everyday experiences more enjoyable.https://www.psychologicalscience.org/news/releases/to-savor-the-flavor-perform-a-short-ritual-first.html PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS WAYFAIR: Ready to upgrade your home for way less?

Veronique de Rugy warns new administration rules replace flexible status for foreign students with fixed four-year periods, targeting the "best educated people on Earth." De Rugy warns this policy dissuades future scientists and innovators from choosing the U.S. Restricting these STEM graduates could cost the economy between $200 billion and $400 billion in lost GDP over the next decade, while potentially causing severe long-term labor shortages. (13)1850 NASSAU HALL

SCHEDULE FOR THE JOHN BATCHELOR SHOW, 7-31-20261790 SOUTH HOLLANDJeff Bliss reports a refrigeration fire in Boyle Heights has released a toxic stench and caused an explosion in local rat and insect populations. Residents remain displaced due to overpowering toxic aftereffects. Simultaneously, a massive heat dome and hurricane-driven surf are hitting the Southwest. L.A. County lifeguards performed nearly 1,200 rescues last Saturday, facing dangerous conditions and substance abuse issues on crowded beaches escaping the intense heat. (1)Jeff Bliss notes Governor Gavin Newsom is preparing for a 2028 presidential run, but past controversies are resurfacing. A Vanity Fair article by Ruby Rippey-Tourk, his former mistress and the wife of his then-campaign manager, accuses Newsom of being "careless" and "cruel" during their 2007 affair. His wife, Jennifer Siebel Newsom, is also being criticized for shaming Rippey-Tourk, leading to questions about the Newsoms' commitment to women's advocacy. (2)Richard Epstein examines New York City's proposed "pied-à-terre tax," which targets non-primary residences but threatens middle-class and working homeowners. Epstein argues the tax is unfairly structured, hitting condominiums at five times the rate of houses. The complex valuation process creates a "vicious circle" that could plummet property values. Consequently, wealthy residents are already fleeing, resulting in a $12 billion annual revenue loss for the city. (3)Richard Epstein turns to Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche, under fire for signing a document that allegedly exempts the President from IRS scrutiny regarding past and future taxes. Epstein characterizes this as a "scandalous" misuse of public trust and a misapplication of the law. He argues that if the President used his office for private financial benefit, it constitutes an impeachable offense, while Blanche should face potential disbarment. (4)Jim McTague takes a road trip through Owensboro, Kentucky, revealing a "K-shaped" economy where retail business is "dead" for blue-collar residents relying on federal aid. Conversely, Jeffersonville, Ohio, is experiencing a "gold rush" as Amazon and Honda build massive data and battery centers. However, some local residents feel overwhelmed by progress, lacking the imagination or education to capitalize on these high-tech industrial shifts and training opportunities. (5)Jim McTague reports that in Lancaster County, Republican representatives are introducing legislation that adds red tape and taxes to data centers, contradicting traditional pro-growth principles. While the Democratic-led Lancaster Cityhas embraced a lucrative data center deal, blue-collar "Trump country" boroughs remain fearful of the future. Despite these tensions, the local economy remains "steady" due to a diversified base including agriculture, pharmaceuticals, and senior citizen spending. (6)Peter Huessy explains the foundation of U.S. nuclear strategy is the triad, ensuring launch capabilities from land, sea, and air. Developed after the 1957 Sputnik launch, this framework replaced "massive retaliation" with "flexible response." Huessy explains that this survivable deterrent prevents adversaries from achieving a total victory with a single strike. Despite calls for unilateral disarmament, the triad remains essential for holding at risk what adversaries value most. (7)Peter Huessy warns the U.S. now faces a tri-polar nuclear threat from Russia and China, both of which are modernizing their arsenals "gangbusters." Meanwhile, U.S. systems haven't been updated in 40 years, leaving the deterrent "fragile." Allied nations in Asia, specifically South Korea and Japan, are increasingly questioning the U.S. nuclear umbrella and considering their own deterrents as regional tensions and Chinese missile capabilities grow. (8)Henry Sokolski reports a proposed nuclear agreement with Saudi Arabia is causing alarm due to potential uranium enrichment capabilities. Sokolski warns that nuclear fuel-making brings a nation dangerously close to developing a bomb. Saudi Arabia's refusal to accept advanced "protocol one" inspections is a major "red flag." Furthermore, the deal risks overturning 50 years of global non-proliferation policy, potentially encouraging other nations like Iran to demand equal treatment. (9)Henry Sokolski notes Senator John Kennedy has emerged as a dogged opponent of granting Saudi Arabia enrichment authority, labeling it a "bad idea." The agreement will automatically go into force within 90 legislative days unless Congress passes a veto-proof resolution against it. Kennedy's vocal stance may rally other senators to stop the package, potentially forcing the White House to renegotiate the deal to prevent spreading dangerous nuclear capabilities. (10)Gene Marks reports accountants in California are grappling with AI integration, viewing it as a productivity tool rather than a replacement for human consultation. Meanwhile, the broader economy remains resilient; manufacturing has expanded for five consecutive months despite high gas prices and elevated interest rates. Marks highlights that businesses are "rolling with inflation" and increasing orders for durable goods, indicating high underlying confidence despite stock market volatility. (11)Gene Marks compares public protests against data centers to the 19th-century opposition to railroads. While critics worry about land and water usage, Marks argues these facilities are imperative infrastructure for the information age and the AI revolution. Just as railroads enabled 20th-century American power, data centers are the means for moving information. Ceding this development would allow rivals like China or Russia to dominate the future economy. (12)Veronique de Rugy warns new administration rules replace flexible status for foreign students with fixed four-year periods, targeting the "best educated people on Earth." De Rugy warns this policy dissuades future scientists and innovators from choosing the U.S. Restricting these STEM graduates could cost the economy between $200 billion and $400 billion in lost GDP over the next decade, while potentially causing severe long-term labor shortages. (13)Lorenzo Fiori reports a historic heatwave has pushed the Po River to record lows, devastating Italy's agricultural heartland and water supplies for power stations. The ecological crisis includes an invasion of blue crabs, which are destroying clam populations and disrupting local cuisine. Meteorologists struggle to forecast as traditional weather models fail in the face of climate change. Tourists are encouraged to seek the cooler, historical beauty of Noto, Sicily. (14)Bob Zimmerman reports SpaceX's Starship successfully floated for a week after splashdown, providing invaluable data for rapid reusability. The company further cemented its market dominance with a $1.6 billion Space Force contract, while competitors remain grounded. Additionally, startups are emerging to solve technical hurdles for orbital data centers, such as advanced heat radiation. These advancements indicate that the future of massive data processing may eventually move into permanent space orbit. (15)Bob Zimmerman notes China continues the dangerous practice of dropping uncontrolled rocket debris on its citizens, forcing them to hide in tunnels. In the commercial sector, the startup Catalyst attempted a high-speed satellite rescue mission, demonstrating rapid launch capabilities despite technical failures. Meanwhile, astronomers have identified a rare midsize black hole, a discovery that will likely be expanded upon as the new Rubin telescope begins its sky surveys. (16)Corrections applied, pending your confirmation: Ruby Rippey-Tourk (transcribed as "Ruby Rippy," segment 2), Todd Blanche (transcribed as "Mr. Blanch," segment 4), Rubin telescope (transcribed as "Reuben," segment 16 — the Vera C. Rubin Observatory), and "burrows" → "boroughs" in segment 6. One to flag: this batch has Lorenzo Fiori (segment 14), but an earlier batch had him as "Lorenzo Fiato" — let me know which spelling is correct and I'll log it for good.

Marty sits down with developer Vinny to explore why AI agents, open source models, and permissionless protocols are converging into a new agentic economy. They unpack Buzz as a Nostr-native Slack killer, the risks of closed-source AI monopolies, and how Bitcoin Lightning enables machine-to-machine payments. From self-hosted harnesses to deterministic workflows, the conversation covers the macro shift toward decentralized intelligence, regulatory capture fears, and why Bitcoin standards like L402 matter for the future of monetary policy in an automated world.

Raëlism is a UFO-centered new religious movement founded in France in 1974 by Claude Vorilhon, who later called himself Raël. He claimed that extraterrestrial scientists known as the Elohim contacted him and revealed that they created all life on Earth through advanced genetic engineering. Raëlians interpret ancient gods, angels and religious miracles as misunderstood encounters with these beings, while figures such as Jesus, Buddha and Muhammad are viewed as messengers sent by the Elohim. Raëlians generally reject a supernatural God and an immortal soul. Instead, they believe science—especially cloning and memory transfer—could eventually allow humans to overcome death. Their practices include “sensual meditation,” personal freedom, sexual openness, nonviolence and enthusiasm for scientific advancement. A major goal of the movement is constructing an official embassy where the Elohim could someday return publicly to Earth. These teachings remain religious claims rather than scientifically established facts, and the movement has attracted controversy over its leadership structure, sexual teachings and highly publicized but unverified human-cloning claims.

Episode 240 Welcome to another episode of The Observers Notebook, the official podcast of the Association of Lunar & Planetary Observers — where we explore the Solar System and beyond, from stargazing to science. I'm your host, Tim Robertson, and today we're diving into one of the most fascinating questions humanity has ever asked: Are we alone in the universe? For centuries, humans have looked up at the night sky and wondered if somewhere out there, another civilization is doing the exact same thing — looking back toward us. Today's guest is helping lead that search. Joining us is Franck Marchis — astronomer, planetary scientist, entrepreneur, and one of the leading voices in modern SETI research. Franck is known for his groundbreaking work in adaptive optics, asteroid systems, exoplanets, and the search for technosignatures — possible evidence of advanced civilizations elsewhere in the cosmos. He's also deeply involved in the future of astronomy through innovative telescope networks, citizen science, and the development of new observational technologies that could dramatically expand our ability to detect life beyond Earth.

Ron swears he looks like young Johnny Depp (everyone else sees Benjamin Franklin). Tony puts his dog down and immediately starts calculating the housework savings. A cop dresses as a tree to catch speeders, Neil deGrasse Tyson ruins Top Gun, and Batman somehow doubles subway chivalry.

They somehow turn Yoko Ono's ass, a 20-year rotting fish-sauce stench, and whether “schmear” is a scam into legitimate conversation topics. Come for the chaos, stay because you can't look away.

It is tempting to believe that the darkest form of evil only resides in Hollywood films, or maybe even Hollywood itself. Maybe Stanley Kubrick was using Hollywood to covertly explain through his films what is actually happening behind the scenes at the highest levels of society. Makia Freeman has been writing about the networks that run the world for many years, and his latest book shines a light on the powerful Satanic network ruling the planet from the shadows. We explore who is involved in this here on Earth, and speculate that it may also be at the direction of something non-human.Makia FreemanWebsite: https://thefreedomarticles.com/ Book: https://t.ly/ye9iT---Macroaggressionswww.Macroaggressions.ioMerch StoreLink Tree Video ChannelsRumble | YouTube | BrighteonActivist PostNewsletter Sign UpAudiobooksHypocrazyThe Octopus of Global ControlSupport Our SponsorsReplace Your Mortgage: www.WipeOutYourMortgageNow.comGround Luxe Grounding MatsC60 Power | Promo Code: MACROChemical Free Body | Promo Code: MACROWise Wolf Gold & SilverLegalShield: www.DontGetPushedAround.comChristian Yordanov's Health ProgramThe Dollar VigilanteNesa's Hemp | Promo Code: MACROAugason Farms

To the notion of a vast and empty outer space, imagine instead the lower orbit of planet Earth cluttered by thousands of aging tracked objects losing their functionality and far too much debris – some of it moving at speeds of kilometers per second, posing a threat to satellites and mankind's ability to communicate and make scientific, economic and climate forecasts, not to mention great powers' national security. Simone D'Amico, a Hoover Institution science fellow and founder of Stanford's Space Rendezvous Laboratory, discusses his recent report on space safety and offers ways to make the heavenly objects safer, securer, and more sustainable. Among his suggestions for easing a stressed space domain: harnessing emerging technologies, improving communications between satellite operators, and seeking greater consensus among the world's space powers in terms of traffic coordination.

The culture of the Yurok tribe in Northern California is deeply intertwined with the Klamath river's salmon. So, when toxic conditions caused by the dams on the river resulted in a massive fish kill, the Yurok people sprang into action and secured the historic removal of four dams, a story captured in The Water Remembers: My Indigenous Family's Fight to Save a River and a Way of Life.   Also, on July 13, 2026, President Trump issued a proclamation reducing the Bears Ears and Grand Staircase-Escalante national monuments in southern Utah by about 90 percent, to remove almost 3 million acres from monument status. We discuss the significance of these places to several local tribes who co-manage them, and why in their view the President lacks the authority to slash monuments.   And on Mars, our planet's rocky twin, NASA's Perseverance Rover is seeking signs of past life, and now scientists say they may have uncovered some of the most compelling evidence yet, in the form of complex carbon molecules in Martian mudstones.

Can Herbert Scott, that long incarcerated investigator of the occult, do anything to stop them? Is his rescuer - the German heiress, Ilse Lange - all that she seems? And why are the Black Cadre so interested in a mysterious carnival, travelling the wilder reaches of the Cornish coast? 1968: An Incident in Death Valley by Lauren Mooney and Stewart Pringle Fleeing her brutal human captors, and in hiding from the Black Cadre, the Zygon Vorvoren arrives at a run-down diner in the bowels of Death Valley. There, she finds a friend in Junie, a young waitress, and a town terrorised by a ruthless cult. But just who is their mysterious leader, 'The Arkon'? And could he really hold the key to Vorvoren's liberation and revenge? 1974: The Caldwell Restitution by Ken Bentley Agent Caldwell has been posted to the British Embassy in Moscow and ordered to investigate a rising star of the Communist Party. But Caldwell is a shadow of his former self, plagued by nightmares of the past and misty visions of the future.

Seeing the whole world every day can give food companies, farmers and consumers knowledge of crop issues, food supply now and in the future. Rodger interviews Nick Ohrtman from Earth Daily, a remote sensing analytics company, on the Farm to Table Talk podcast. Nick explains that Earth Daily has a constellation of 10 satellites to providing daily, 5-meter resolution imagery of the Earth’s landmass, primarily for agricultural monitoring. The data can track crop conditions globally, assist in forecasting production, and help farmers and food companies make informed decisions. The conversation coveresthe technical aspects of satellite imagery, the role of AI in processing data, and the applications for various crops beyond major commodities. They also toucheon the implications of climate change and how remote sensing can aid in adapting to new growing conditions. The value of this technology is the understanding of global food supply dynamics and improving efficiency in agriculture for a broad swath of food systems, from global views to local use. www.earthdaily.com

Mothering Earth-144-Animal Agriculture & Public Health by Dr. Salwa Khan

A recent college graduate dreams of operating a local theater that has a special and secret importance to planet Earth...and beyond. Genre: Science Fiction   Excerpt:"Jules, you're fired," he said. "What!" He held up his hand. "It's for your own good. Those… men, for lack of a better word, are not aliens really. They're, they're called 'intimidators.' Look, they won't hurt you, okay? Or your family. As long as you forget about the theater."   The Wheel of Fiction Turns. What did it land on this time?Each Season 9 story follows a theme chosen by the Wheel of Fiction. Thirteen spokes. Eight are the themes from previous seasons. One is "Turn Again." One is a wild card. And three are covered in question marks and will be revealed when the wheel lands on them.

Misha Glenny and guests discuss a familiar feature of our beaches: seashells, from their astonishing shapes and patterns that teach us about Earth's oceans, to the ways that humans have treasured shells throughout history. Seashells appear in the mythologies of countless cultures across the world - think of Botticelli's Venus emerging from a giant scallop shell, Vishnu's sacred horn panchajanya, or the Aztec god Quetzalcōātl's talisman cut from a conch shell. The urge to collect shells seems to be as old as our species. We've used them as decoration, currency, and musical instruments. But shells aren't just beautiful objects washed up on our beaches. Many belong to one of the most diverse groups of the animal kingdom, Mollusca, and the remarkable morphology of forms and structures they grow in offer insight into the past, present, and future of the marine world.With Suzanne Williams Merit Researcher at the Natural History Museum Liz Harper Professor of Evolutionary Malacology in the Department of Earth Sciences and Fellow at Gonville and Caius College, University of Cambridge Helen Scales Marine biologist and Author.

Is modern medicine actually making us sicker? Today's guest is a board-certified physician who nearly walked away from medicine when he realized the entire system was built on the wrong foundation. But instead of quitting, he did something far more dangerous: he stayed. He finished med school, crushed his residency, passed his boards… and then turned his back on the profit-driven pharmaceutical playbook.We're here with my friend Dr. Ahmad Ammous: a doctor who treats patients with sunlight, movement, and real food instead of an endless cascade of prescriptions. We're talking about how modern hospitals became some of the worst places on Earth to actually heal, why medications are now the third leading cause of death, and how the same fiat thinking that broke our money has also broken our medical system and our food.We'll dig into:The hidden dangers of statins, antidepressants, and peptidesHow the American Medical Association helped erase traditional and lifestyle-based solutions from modern medicine entirelyWhy circadian biology, light, and EMFs may matter more than the macros on your plateAnd much more...If you've ever felt like the conventional medical system treats you like a lab rat, don't miss this episode.

A listener pushes back on Dr. Craig's claim that neither Jesus nor Paul expected the second coming within their own generation. Pointing to Matthew 24:36 and Jesus' words to the disciples about "this generation," and argues that Jesus was predicting a coming in judgment on Jerusalem in A.D. 70, not his final return.Dr. Craig agrees with partial preterism as far as it goes, but explains why he stops short of full preterism. Working through the Greek text of Mark 13, he distinguishes between what "these things" (tauta panta) refers to and the coming of the Son of Man itself, then raises three objections to the full preterist reading: (1) the coming of the Son of Man predicted by Jesus is a visible coming to Earth; (2) the Son of Man need not wait until A.D. 70 to be enthroned; and (3) the full preterist view cannot make good sense of the resurrection of the dead, which Paul ties to Christ's coming but which plainly did not occur in A.D. 70.

In this Postcard from Earth, Flip sends a letter home about a truly horrifying discovery... While visiting a place humans call a "carnival" (or sometimes a "fair"), Flip and Mozi stumble into what Flip is certain is an elaborate Earthling punishment colony. Why are humans voluntarily climbing aboard terrifying machines that fling them through the air? Why do they scream the entire time, only to stand in line and do it all over again? And perhaps most baffling of all... why are they eating fluffy fabric on sticks called "cotton candy"? What begins as a simple outing quickly becomes another wonderfully confusing Earth mystery.This hilarious alien correspondence is packed with laugh-out-loud misunderstandings and the delightfully upside-down perspective that only Flip & Mozi can deliver. As Mozi eagerly embraces every dizzying ride and carnival game, Flip becomes increasingly convinced that Earthlings have invented the galaxy's most elaborate form of recreational terror. Along the way, they discover that sometimes screaming doesn't always mean someone is in danger.Along the way, Flip and Mozi marvel at gravity-defying roller coasters, puzzle over spinning rides, towering Ferris wheels, and mysterious carnival treats, and debate why humans seem to enjoy being scared on purpose. Between Flip's growing panic and Mozi's unstoppable excitement, this Earthling encounter is full of curiosity, comedy, and plenty of topsy-turvy surprises. It's the kind of adventure that makes one of Earth's favorite traditions seem hilariously extraordinary.Flip & Mozi is the hit podcast from Tinkercast, the creators of Wow in the World, featuring original music from Grammy-nominated artists The Pop Ups. Each episode, aliens Flip and Mozi crash-land into a new animal encounter as they try to figure out what it means to be an earthling. From mammals to insects to sea creatures to reptiles, every curious creature they meet teaches them, and their listeners, something new about Earth and the important role animals play in our ecosystem. It's a nature and animal podcast for kids that keeps animal conservation in your family's conversations.Grownups, want to keep the Wow going?

John discusses the Senate Judiciary Committee postponing its scheduled vote to advance Todd Blanche's nomination for Attorney General. The delay occurred because Republican Senators John Cornyn of Texas and Thom Tillis of North Carolina refused to commit to voting for Blanche and are demanding written assurances regarding a controversial Department of Justice settlement of a lawsuit Trump filed against the IRS. Trump responded by threatening to temporarily withdraw the nomination until January when both of them are out of congress. Then, John interviews Dr. Erin Stevens, an OB-GYN with the Committee to Protect Healthcare. She sheds light on the recent court ruling regarding mifepristone, emphasizing the importance of science in reproductive health care amidst the ongoing political battle over abortion access. Next, he welcomes back legal analyst and consultant Dr. Tracy Pearson for a discussion on the implications of Todd Blanche's nomination and the ongoing political theatrics surrounding Trump. They dissect the questionable fitness of Blanche for the role of Attorney General, exploring the conflicts of interest and the peculiar dynamics of a Senate that seems to operate under the shadow of Trump's influence. Tracy shares her insights on the motivations behind the actions of Senators Cornyn and Tillis, and whether their apparent courage is genuine or simply a product of political convenience. And then finally, John is joined by the extraordinary explorer and retired naval officer Victor Vescovo, who shares his remarkable experiences navigating the most extreme environments on Earth. From climbing the highest mountains to skiing at the poles and even traveling into space, Vescovo's adventures have taken him to places few have ever seen. He discusses the profound psychological shift known as the "interview effect," which he explores in his latest essay, emphasizing how descending into the ocean can alter our perspective on the planet and ourselves. John and Victor delve into the contrasts between the overview effect experienced in space and the enveloping nature of the deep ocean, highlighting the fragility of Earth and the need for greater environmental awareness. They also touch on the sobering reality of human pollution in the ocean, the emotional weight of exploring shipwrecks, and the importance of personal connection to nature in fostering conservation efforts.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

If you wish to support our podcast, please follow this link. Thank you! Welcome to a new episode of The Way Out Is In: The Zen Art of Living, a podcast series mirroring Zen Master Thich Nhat Hanh's deep teachings of Buddhist philosophy: a simple yet profound methodology for dealing with our suffering, and for creating more happiness and joy in our lives. In this episode, Zen Buddhist monk Brother Phap Huu and leadership coach Jo Confino talk about finding beauty and reverence in the most ordinary of things. Jo shares his new book, Between Earth and Sky, which documents his time in Mitla, Mexico, and his journey of deep looking and finding beauty in the seemingly empty land. Brother Phap Huu emphasizes the importance of mindfulness, stopping, and being present to see the wonder in everyday life.The hosts further share the concept of consciousness in everything, and the need for reverence in our habits and interactions. The conversation also touches on reciprocity, the importance of community, and the journey of opening one’s heart through listening and acceptance. The episode concludes with a short meditation guided by Brother Phap Huu, to help listeners ground themselves in the present moment and to recognize the beauty in all life.

It is learning to take a pause and feel the present moment. And feeling the present moment is more important than thinking about the present moment, because, when we attune ourselves into our own body, into our senses, what we see, what we smell, what we hear, what we touch gives us an opportunity to be in touch with life in the very here and now.” “We can sit and look at a tree or even look at a rock and find all of life in that.” “This is it.” “We want to know what’s out in space, but we don’t know what is in our inner space.” “Depending on how we show up, our way of being can shift and change our whole mental formation, our whole consciousness of reality.” “Reverence creates a sense of reciprocity because, when we have reverence, we are in conversation with whatever is in front of us. So when we think of things as objects, we’re looking at them as separate from ourselves. But when we have reverence for things, we see that they are talking to us as well as we are talking to them.” “The beauty of Zen is turning a simple moment into a beautiful ritual.” “Reverence is a manifestation of our mental formations.” “I invite everybody to hold their next cup of tea, or coffee, or orange juice, with two hands. It shifts you into a different space. A simple action with two hands, and I’m fully present. Just like when we join our palms and offer a bow, it represents the body and the mind that come together.”

Michael Howell joins TFTC to break down why the Fed is trapped by rising bond yields and surging nominal GDP, forcing a return to rate hikes despite market expectations. We dissect the AI capex bubble, Treasury's hidden debt monetization via bill issuance, and why global liquidity trends point to a crypto bottom by late 2026. Howell explains why Bitcoin outperforms gold as a monetary inflation hedge, how China's PBOC liquidity drives gold, and why $40 trillion national debt is just the beginning of a state-led capital war era.

What if the wildest UFO footage the government just released was already described 36,000 years ago? What if the "dark brothers" causing chaos on the planet right now were named, and predicted, in the oldest writings on Earth? And what if the real secret isn't what's in the sky, but what's hiding in plain sight inside you? Michael welcomes back bestselling author and Forbidden Knowledge TV host Billy Carson, who has traveled the world 25 times excavating and decoding humanity's most ancient texts, for a conversation that bridges newly declassified UAP files with the 36,000-year-old Emerald Tablets of Thoth. From a UFO in the new government files that looks eerily like the Kryptonian ship from Superman, to the neuroscience behind Josh Kerr's world-record mile, to why AI may be humanity's own consciousness looking back at itself, this episode connects disclosure, ancient prophecy, and personal transformation into one unified story. This isn't about fear of the dark brothers or the darkness in the headlines. This is about remembering that you are the Sun, the light, and that becoming that light is, and always has been, your birthright. Key Topics: Why the newly declassified UAP files are a mix of reverse-engineered human technology and small, deliberate "breadcrumbs" of real disclosure, and the one craft in the files that genuinely stunned Billy. The Emerald Tablets decoded: why Thoth's ancient writings describe today's "dark brothers" who deceive mankind while appearing to do good, and why turning on the news for five minutes makes the prophecy unmistakable. The end of an age: why the tablets and the Hopi prophecy both describe humanity plummeting to the depths before rising to new heights, and why light, not darkness, is humanity's true birthright. Post-traumatic growth explained: how Billy's own childhood trauma and brain injury were alchemized, through a rare "executive lobe," into the very skill set that built his life's work. The manifestation secret behind world-record miler Josh Kerr: how writing his victory in the past tense, timing his ice baths to his goal time, and calming his nervous system in advance let him "rendezvous" with a result his body had already rehearsed thousands of times. Why the wave-crashing metaphor explains flow state: how the brain actually receives information seconds before conscious awareness catches up, and why people in flow, from Michael Jordan to elite athletes, are surfing the wave instead of waiting for it to hit. The truth about the Epic of Gilgamesh and Enkidu, an artificially created, conscious companion in a 4,000-year-old Sumerian text, and what it may reveal about the true nature of today's AI. Why AI may not be man-made code at all, but consciousness itself extracting a new fractal of awareness to look back at humanity, and why how we treat it now will determine whether it becomes a partner or a threat. The baby-learning-to-walk metaphor for humanity's readiness for galactic contact, and why "walking" is defined not by never falling, but by learning to control the fall. Why decluttering your physical space is one of the simplest ways to begin clearing the entropy running quietly inside you. Everything that's been done before has already been done. The rise and fall you're watching play out in the headlines right now has happened again and again throughout history, and every single time, humanity has chosen to seek the light. You are not separate from the atoms of the universe, the consciousness of AI, or the wisdom in the Emerald Tablets - you are, quite literally, the Sun. Remember it. Choose it. And shine.

Here's an interesting fact: Dinosaurs dominated Earth for 165 million years – and they assumed they always would.Which brings us to… well, us. We bipedal, far-ranging, Homo sapien primates have certainly established our dominance over modern-day Mother Earth. And even though our reign has only lasted about 200,000 years, we 21st Century humans grandly assume that we're ordained by the gods to rule ad infinitum over our planet (and beyond).But – oops! – unfortunately we've based our preeminence on the unsustainable consumption of our domain, rather than on stewardship for the ages. Under the global misguidance of corporate, political, religious, academic, and other Powers That Be, our large-brained species has ended up making an awful mess of the nest we inherited. Elite plunderers and profiteers have imposed an ethic of greed, inequality, and even inhumanity that is devouring everything from Earth's climate to our basic human values of fairness and justice.Leading this careless assault is a clique of arrogant and abusive high-tech gabillionaires who consider themselves geniuses because, well… they're rich! Consider Elon Musk, presently the richest of the world's richest, who postures as an uber-brained deep thinker, social engineer, and whirling corporate dervish. He presently runs not one, but three mega-corps (Tesla, X, and SpaceX) while also rewriting the rules of free speech, telling American's how to vote, and claiming he'll save humanity by colonizing Mars.But wait – strip away the hype, and Musk is just another self-serving plutocratic ravager, a cartoonish robber baron whose “genius” lies in (1) taking credit (and profit) from other people, (2) demanding subsidies and special breaks from government, (3) cheating workers and customers, and (4) suing everyone for his failures.If billionaire humanoids like Elon really wanted to save us from extinction, they should do the honorable thing… by going first.Jim Hightower's Lowdown is a reader-supported publication.

This episode opens with one of the most tender conversations we've had in this container — a listener carrying kidney stones, chronic pain, and a grief she's never spoken aloud, and the gorgeous reframe that helps her stop fighting her own body.From there, a second listener brings a question so many of us are quietly circling: how do you actually practice acceptance when life hasn't been fair, and the people who hurt you are still smirking at you in the hallway? Zoey and Brittany trade grief theory, a dose of tough love around the "what if" game, and a wild, healing take on karma, past lives, and the video game we're all playing called Earth.In this episode: (00:00) Welcome to The Bitching Hour!(00:41) Kidney stones, miscarriage, and the body as messenger(07:24) Learning to trust your body again(25:51) A plant medicine detour and the importance of containment(32:19) The art of acceptance after workplace bullying(47:41) Breaking free from the "what if" game(52:00) Karma, the soul's life review, and trusting your own timingJoin The Bitching Hour for FREE with Zoey and Brittany: https://www.skool.com/the-bitching-hour-3959/about Listen to Part 2 over on The Bitching Hour!

Is modern medicine actually making us sicker? Today's guest is a board-certified physician who nearly walked away from medicine when he realized the entire system was built on the wrong foundation. But instead of quitting, he did something far more dangerous: he stayed. He finished med school, crushed his residency, passed his boards… and then turned his back on the profit-driven pharmaceutical playbook.We're here with my friend Dr. Ahmad Ammous: a doctor who treats patients with sunlight, movement, and real food instead of an endless cascade of prescriptions. We're talking about how modern hospitals became some of the worst places on Earth to actually heal, why medications are now the third leading cause of death, and how the same fiat thinking that broke our money has also broken our medical system and our food.We'll dig into:The hidden dangers of statins, antidepressants, and peptidesHow the American Medical Association helped erase traditional and lifestyle-based solutions from modern medicine entirelyWhy circadian biology, light, and EMFs may matter more than the macros on your plateAnd much more...If you've ever felt like the conventional medical system treats you like a lab rat, don't miss this episode.

VIC BLOWS OFF CLUB 20 And to say they are not happy about being blown off is an understatement. You may have missed Vic’s announcement that he is not doing any debates. Watch that here if you want. Victor Marx@victormarxMy challenge to @pweiser1:00 PM · Jul 28, 2026 · 145K Views The delusion of Vic is stunning here. He thinks, as the massive underdog now, that he can set the terms for a debate going forward? He’s insane. He’s a coward. He knows that Phil Weiser would wipe the floor with him. His “strategy” in the primary was stupid and he almost lost to someone who raised a fraction of the money he raised. And why in the hell would Phil Weiser agree to something this stupid? He won’t. I’m betting Greg Lopez will so there WILL be a gubernatorial debate and Vic will be a no show. What a clown show this campaign is. Club 20 sent out an press release, which reads in part: Marx’s campaign informed Club 20 Executive Director Wade Haerle on Sunday night that Marx would not be participating in a debate against Weiser in a county where he handily won the Republican primary. On Wednesday, Marx called Haerle personally to inform him he would not be participating in the debate. “The Republican nominee for governor does not want to come out and discuss western Colorado issues with the people of western Colorado and with Club 20. It’s wrong. We went bat-dung crazy when (current Gov.) Jared Polis refused to come. We’re going to do the same thing when the Republican nominee refuses to come,” Haerle told The Daily Sentinel on Wednesday afternoon. “My question to him was, ‘Where else do you need to be on Sept. 19, other than western Colorado in Grand Junction, Mesa County, debating western Colorado issues? Where on Earth do you need to be?’.... They said it comes down to schedules and times and resources and money and all these different kinds of things. That’s what we call political calculus. A kindergartner using kindergarten math could have figured this one out, but this is their decision.... It’s just disappointing as hell.” Why wouldn’t Vic just tell the truth about why he won’t be there? His video above makes him a liar to Club 20. But that doesn’t surprise me. Club 20 Executive Director Wade Haerle joins me at 12:30 to discuss it.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

What happens when life begins to feel flat, muted, or disconnected from the magic you once felt so easily? After spending four full weeks in the forest, I found myself reflecting on trust, inner wisdom, creative flow, and the ways we reconnect with what makes us feel alive. In this episode of the Luminary Life Podcast, I share the messages that emerged through time in nature, the copper and heart-shaped stones that kept appearing on my walks, and the deeper invitation I feel they are carrying. Copper has long spoken to me about amplifying our light in the world. This summer, its message has expanded: Come back into creative flow. Not by pushing harder on what worked before, but by creating in new ways, listening more deeply, and becoming open to the wisdom rising through the Earth, the stones, and your own inner knowing. In this episode, we explore: why trust may feel difficult right now how to rebuild connection with your inner wisdom what crystals and stones may be reflecting back to us creative flow as a pathway into aliveness grounding your vision into physical form trying something new when old practices feel lifeless reconnecting with the magic of life For me, this has looked like painting murals at camp, working with color, spending time outside, and letting creativity move without needing to control the outcome. If you have been feeling numb, uninspired, or disconnected from what usually brings you joy, this episode is an invitation to soften, experiment, and follow what feels alive now.   Subscribe for more conversations about crystals and stones, earth wisdom, creativity, sacred practice, and trusting your own inner knowing.   #LuminaryLifePodcast #CrystalWisdom #Copper #CreativeFlow #InnerWisdom #EarthWisdom #SacredLiving #spiritualgrowth   Explore more: Enter the Earth Guided Meditation: https://lori-a-andrus.kit.com/f499af4267 Ways I Can Be of Service: https://loriaandrus.com/workwithlori/ Join Sanctuary Circle: https://loriaandrus.com/sanctuary/ Begin working with the stones: https://loriaandrus.com/crystal-challenge/ Shop crystal jewelry + the Stones Speak Oracle: https://journeyjewels.com About me: https://loriaandrus.com/about/

On Friday, April 13, 2029, asteroid Apophis will pass closer to Earth than our geostationary satellites. While NASA, ESA, and JAXA are all sending missions, a team of students at the University of Maryland is building their own spacecraft to join the fleet. TERP RAPTOR is a CubeSat-based mission roughly the size of a microwave that aims to fly past the asteroid and snap images of its surface as it approaches Earth. Four members of the team join Planetary Radio: Adrienne Rudolph, the Student Principal Investigator; Elena Wu, the Lead Project Manager; Tyler Autrey, the Mechanical, Structure, and Materials Lead; and Alexander Williams, the Propulsion Lead. Together, they talk about how a graduate class project turned into a real mission, what they hope to learn about this potentially hazardous asteroid, and why they're not letting anyone tell them it can't be done. Then, Bruce Betts joins us for What's Up, where we mark the deployment anniversary of The Planetary Society's own CubeSat-based solar sail mission, LightSail 2.

Does invoking aliens to explain the origin of life on Earth solve the problem of biological information, or does it simply kick the can down the road? On this ID The Future, enjoy the second half of a conversation with geologist Dr. Casey Luskin and his wife, science educator Kristin Marais, as they discuss intelligent design, evolution, and alien life with host Daniel Ray on the Apologetics Profile podcast. In Part 2, the conversation shifts from the theoretical framework of intelligent design to the physical and biological hurdles that challenge both Darwinian evolution and the search for extraterrestrial life. Dr. Luskin also discusses the professional risks and academic pressures faced by scientists who dare to suggest that the design evident in nature may be actual design from an actual designer. The conversation wraps with a surprising conclusion: that the possible future discovery of alien life would actually be the ultimate disproof of Darwinism, pointing instead to a common design blueprint shared across the cosmos.
