The hosts try to hold all of it at once as they consider this viral story that sits at the intersection of disability rights and reproductive autonomy. In the latest Gabfest Reads, John Dickerson talks with Bloomberg columnist Adrian Wooldridge about his new book The Revolutionary Center: The Lost Genius of Liberalism. In a moment when American democracy is under assault from authoritarian populists and dogmatic progressives, Wooldridge argues that liberalism itself offers the most resilient framework for pluralistic, self-correcting societies.

505: Live Work with Ruben: Part 1 of 2

Live Work with Ruben: Part 1 of 2 Working with Performance Anxiety in Real Time Hosts: Kevin Cornelius, LMFT Dr. David Burns Guests: Dr. Jill Levitt Ruben Land In this live work from a recent Tuesday Group, we had the opportunity to work with Ruben, a highly capable and thoughtful clinician, who brought a struggle that many therapists quietly share: intense performance anxiety in evaluative situations, especially in the presence of authority figures or people he deeply admires. What made this work especially powerful is that Ruben was actively experiencing anxiety in the moment, allowing us to "get in the car with him" rather than talk about the problem abstractly. We began, as always in TEAM-CBT, with Testing. Ruben had completed a Brief Mood Survey, which showed relatively low baseline symptoms—just mild anxiety and minimal depression or anger. However, when we reviewed his Daily Mood Log, anchored to a specific situation (leading a group under supervision), we saw a very different picture: anxiety at 70%, feelings of inferiority and defectiveness at 80%, embarrassment at 70%. This contrast highlights a core principle: symptoms are often situational and state-dependent, and without anchoring in a specific moment, we risk missing the true intensity of the problem. From there, we moved into Empathy, where Jill did a beautiful job modeling the Five Secrets of Effective Communication. She captured Ruben's internal experience with precision: the pressure to perform, the fear of saying the wrong thing, the spiral of anxiety leading to cognitive blanking, and the secondary anxiety about appearing anxious. She also identified both the internal loop ("I'm anxious about being anxious") and the interpersonal fears ("they'll think I'm a fraud," "I'm wasting their time"). David complemented this with curiosity and gentle inquiry, helping to deepen the conceptualization without getting lost in theory. Importantly, we conducted an empathy check, asking Ruben to grade us on thought empathy, feeling empathy, and warmth. He gave A+ ratings across the board, with a slight adjustment on thought empathy when he introduced an additional element: a compulsive need to check and recheck, suggesting a subtle OCD-like process. This moment is critical—without the empathy check, we would have missed an important maintaining factor. Only after strong empathy did we move into Agenda Setting, which is often the most counterintuitive and transformative part of TEAM-CBT. David began with the Invitation, asking whether Ruben wanted help or more support. Ruben was ready to "roll up his sleeves," which is essential—no imposed agenda. Then we used the Miracle Question to clarify goals: Ruben wanted to feel less anxious, maintain fluency, and stay present in high-stakes situations. Next came the Magic Button, targeting outcome resistance. When asked if he would eliminate all his negative feelings, Ruben said no—he wanted to keep some anxiety. This is exactly what we hope for. It opens the door to Positive Reframing, where we honor the symptoms rather than pathologize them. Together, we identified numerous positive values and benefits of his anxiety and self-doubt: Anxiety motivates preparation and effort It enhances connection through vulnerability It reflects caring deeply about others and their time Feelings of inadequacy keep him humble and growth-oriented Fear of judgment protects him and signals high standards Even the thought "I might be a fraud" reflects a desire to be authentic and competent At one point, Ruben articulated that his anxiety shows he values others and wants to contribute meaningfully—this is a profound reframe. Jill and David reinforced these insights, helping him see that his "symptoms" are actually expressions of his values system in action. We also explored a key factor: his anxiety is amplified in performative, evaluative contexts, especially with authority figures, and is less intense in vulnerable, non-evaluative settings. This distinction is clinically crucial and guides both conceptualization and intervention. Another powerful moment came when Ruben acknowledged that self-disclosure reduces his anxiety, supporting the idea that "shame requires secrecy." When he hides his anxiety, it intensifies; when he shares it, it softens. This is both a therapeutic tool and a treatment target. After thoroughly addressing resistance, we moved into Goal Setting, asking Ruben not what he wants to eliminate, but what he wants to dial down. This is a hallmark of TEAM: Anxiety: 70 → 30 Shame: 30 → 20 Inadequacy: 80 → 30 Embarrassment: 70 → 20 We then transitioned into Methods, targeting the thought: "My speech is too slow, and I sound foolish, ignorant, and boring." Jill began with a classic but essential step: identify the distortions. Ruben quickly identified all-or-nothing thinking, overgeneralization, mental filter, discounting positives, mind reading, fortune telling, labeling, self-blame, and hidden "shoulds." This is an important teaching point: when a thought contains nearly all distortions, it's not a problem—it's a goldmine. From there, rather than staying intellectual, we offered multiple method pathways—Externalization of Voices, Feared Fantasy, Be Specific, and Double Standard—modeling flexibility and collaboration. Ruben chose Externalization of Voices, which became the central method. David stepped in as the Negative Ruben, delivering the attack clearly and forcefully. This is essential—the more vivid the critic, the more powerful the response. Ruben responded using a blend of acceptance ("it's true I sometimes pause"), self-defense, and realism (some people may not like it, and that's okay). He won "big," but not "huge," which is a key TEAM moment—we don't settle for partial wins. They then moved into role reversal, and this is where things deepened. When Ruben played the critic and David responded, David modeled a powerful combination of self-acceptance, counterattack, and refusal to buy into the critic's frame. He highlighted that the real problem wasn't slow speech—it was the constant inner criticism. Ruben immediately recognized this as a "huge" win. Ruben then practiced again, this time integrating acceptance, values ("my heart is in the right place"), and counterattack ("the bigger problem is your nagging voice"). This time it felt huge. Next, they targeted a different thought: "If I screw up, David will be disgusted and see I'm a worthless, selfish fraud." This brought up more anxiety, and Ruben got stuck. Jill did something very important here—she paused the method and returned to empathy, naming the pressure to "do it right" and the performance anxiety happening inside the exercise itself. After empathy, they resumed. Jill modeled a powerful response in role reversal that included radical acceptance of imperfection ("I expect to screw up"), a growth mindset ("that's why I collect feedback"), and a reframe of failure as essential to learning. She also gently challenged the distortion of David as a harsh authority figure and emphasized choosing supportive learning environments. Ruben then extended this insight even further, saying, "the more I fail, the better… the more vulnerable I am, the less I appear like a fraud." This was a genuine shift. They then moved into Feared Fantasy, with David playing "David from Hell," saying things like "you're incompetent," "you're worthless," and "you should find another profession." Ruben responded by using Be Specific, asking what exactly he had done wrong. When the answer became "you paused," the entire structure of the criticism collapsed. Ruben saw the absurdity and described the experience as a weight lifting. This is a classic TEAM moment—when global, harsh judgments are reduced to specific, manageable behaviors, they lose their power. They extended this further with the thought "I'm wasting people's time." Through additional role plays, Ruben practiced self-defense and purpose clarification, David used humor and counterattack, and Jill demonstrated Be Specific in a very precise way—asking exactly how long a pause should be, exposing the irrationality of the standard. The work then expanded to include the group. Participants used Externalization of Voices to challenge Ruben's thoughts, and Ruben responded with increasing strength and clarity, using self-acceptance and reversal of beliefs (for example, recognizing that vulnerability actually increases connection). David then introduced the Survey Technique, asking Ruben to directly check his assumptions with the group. The responses were striking—people reported never noticing pauses, experiencing him as thoughtful and engaging, and feeling more connected because of his style. This directly disconfirmed his mind reading and labeling. At the end, they returned to Testing. Anxiety went from 70 to 0, shame from 30 to 0, inadequacy from 80 to 10, embarrassment from 70 to 0, rejection from 40 to 0, and frustration from 30 to 0. Ruben reported that the change felt real and that his belief in the negative thoughts had dropped dramatically. When asked what created the breakthrough, Ruben identified two key moments. First, a deep emotional realization that the goal is actually to make mistakes—that failure is not something to avoid but something to embrace. Second, a shift in how he saw authority figures—recognizing that the perceived gap between himself and others was distorted. As that sense of separation dissolved, so did much of the anxiety. David highlighted that much of our suffering comes from that artificial separation—seeing others as powerful and ourselves as deficient. Jill added an important layer: when we assume others are harsh, judgmental, and critical, we are also distorting them, not just ourselves. Some key clinical takeaways: Externalization of Voices becomes especially powerful when it includes emotion, repetition, and role reversal. Feared Fantasy works best when the criticism becomes specific and even a bit absurd. The Survey Technique is extremely effective for dismantling mind-reading. And often, breakthrough comes when patients fully embrace failure and let go of perfectionism.

Riding a bike is a good choice, too.W: I agree. But this week my husband is away on business, so I have to drive my kids to school before I go to work.

It's so early.M:Just avoiding the rush hour traffic. I don't want to be late.W: So you have to wait for about two hours? I don't think there's scenery to look at.M:Don't worry! I'll take a book with me.W:It's too noisy to read in the railway station. I would usually look around the shops while waiting for the train.M:But I've already got all the gifts for my parents and sisters. I don't need to buy anything. If I really can't focus on the book, I may phone up some friends I haven't talked to in a while.W:That's a nice idea. Betty told me last time that she often spent the waiting time writing a to-do list so that she'd not miss anything in the days to come.M:That's an awesome idea. I'll surely do that. Thank you, Judy. See you next year.W:Bye!(Text 8)W:Hi, Bill. You look troubled. What's the matter?M:Hi, Grace. I have a big decision to make. My uncle offered me a job as the lead engineer at his service station, and with good pay.W:That's wonderful, but are you going to quit college?M:That's exactly the problem. One side of me says, “Oh, go ahead! You can go back to collegeanytime. What job could you get after college that would pay you $15 an hour?That's $30,000 a year!”W:And then?M:And then, the other side says, “Hold it, not so fast! For all those years you were in the army, you planned to go to college so that you would have many job possibilities to choose from. You've planned your whole life around going to college. And now…”W: I can see it. It's true that with your experience in the army, you could do excellent work repairing cars if you accept the job. But you are doing very well now. Just think of the future. You will get better jobs.(Text 9)W:Hey, John. Can I talk to you for a minute?M:Sure, what's up?W: I wanted to let you know about a book club I joined a few months ago. I know you do a lot of reading, so I thought you might want to come with me next month.M:Oh, that sounds like fun. When does the group meet?W:Usually the last Saturday of the month at 7:30 in the evening. Is that too late for you?M:No, I think that's okay. What do you talk about in the group?W:Well, every month we choose a new book. And then during the next meeting, we discuss it.M:What books have you read?W:Quite a lot. Recently we have read The Beautiful Mind and The Great Gatsby. Now we are reading The Kite Runner.M:The Kite Runner ? I've heard that's a good book. What's it about?W:It's about a boy who grows up in Afghanistan during the 1980s.M:That sounds interesting. I'd love to come.W:Great! The next meeting will be held in two weeks, so you still have time to read the book.(Text 10)W:Today, let's begin with note-taking techniques. Note-taking is an important skill not only for taking classes, but also for doing your job in the future.I'd like to draw your attention to certain points about taking notes. First,remember that note-taking should be 75% listening and only 25% writing, so don't try to write down every single word the teacher says. Ignore what is unimportant and write in phrases, not complete sentences. Second, leave spaces and lines between main ideas. You may want to add some information later. I find that some of you are very good at making use of color, mapping web, and symbols such as arrows, circles and boxes. I highly recommend these tools to all of you, because the use of them makes the outline more easily readable and interesting than the blocks of text. It also makes sure that important words stand out. Here are some examples.

The internet is a dangerous place when Rizz gets curious.What started as a simple search for a phone case labeled "military grade" spiraled into a full-blown investigation into some of the biggest marketing myths ever sold to the public. The gang discovers that many of the things we've accepted as common knowledge may have been crafted by advertising departments, corporate strategists, and people whose entire job was convincing us to buy things we probably didn't need.The conversation starts with the phrase "military grade," which sounds like it should survive an alien invasion but may actually mean something much less impressive. From there, the rabbit hole gets deeper. The crew dives into the legendary Guinness pour, the origin of diamond engagement traditions, and the surprising history behind the phrase "breakfast is the most important meal of the day."Along the way, they uncover how marketing campaigns shaped public perception for everything from toothpaste usage to cream cheese branding. There are discussions about fondue becoming a "national tradition," why certain health trends became mainstream, and how corporations figured out ways to influence consumer behavior so effectively that entire generations accepted the messaging without question.Then things take an even weirder turn.Rafe reveals the truth behind the famous 10,000-step goal and explains how the concept of a personal carbon footprint became part of everyday conversation. Meanwhile, the gang reacts in real time as one long-held belief after another gets dismantled. By the end of the discussion, everyone is questioning reality, marketing, and possibly their breakfast choices.Of course, it wouldn't be The Rizzuto Show without some completely unnecessary detours. The episode also features a surprisingly emotional conversation about cheese after Rafe's dietary restrictions force him into a life without one of humanity's greatest inventions. There are debates about nutritional yeast, food allergies, personal sacrifice, and whether vegan alternatives are helping or making things worse.Add in listener interaction, spontaneous jokes, random tangents, and the usual sarcastic commentary, and you've got exactly the kind of unpredictable chaos that makes this show what it is.If you enjoy a comedy podcast that blends weird facts, hilarious reactions, entertainment commentary, and conversations that somehow get more ridiculous with every minute, you're in the right place. This comedy podcast takes everyday topics and uncovers the strange stories hiding underneath them. Whether you're a longtime listener or discovering the crew for the first time, this comedy podcast delivers laughs, surprises, and just enough useful information to make you dangerous at parties.By the end of this episode you'll probably question every advertisement you've ever seen, every slogan you've ever believed, and every diamond commercial you've ever watched.And honestly?

Joe Gatto is a comedian, producer, actor, and founding member of the hit television show Impractical Jokers. Known for his fearless sense of humor and willingness to embrace embarrassment for entertainment, Joe has spent decades building a career rooted in authenticity, resilience, and friendship. In this episode, Travis breaks down some of the biggest lessons he learned from his conversation with Joe — from overcoming rejection to staying present with family and rebuilding identity after major life transitions. On this episode we talk about: Why success often comes down to outlasting rejection How embarrassment can become a personal superpower The real reason Impractical Jokers became such a massive success Why presence matters more than “work-life balance” How to rebuild your identity after major life changes Top 3 Takeaways The people who succeed are often the ones who simply refuse to quit. Joe and the Jokers spent years facing rejection before finally breaking through. Fear of embarrassment stops more dreams than fear of failure. Learning to embrace awkwardness can unlock massive personal growth. Being fully present with the people around you — even for a few minutes — creates more meaningful relationships than divided attention ever will. Notable Quotes “The people who make it are usually the ones who are still standing when the door finally opens.” “It's not the fear of failure — it's the fear of embarrassment that kills most dreams.” “Five fully present minutes with your kids will probably be the best part of their day.” Connect with Joe Gatto: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/joe_gatto Other: https://www.joegattoofficial.com His Interview on TMF A Word from Our Sponsors: - Are you ready to start your own creatorjourney and make it big?

Have you ever had a really big vision of doing something, and then the way it turned out was actually very different from what you had planned? I think this is almost universal for us as humans. Think back to when you were a teenager. You probably had some ideas about becoming an adult and what that would look like. What kind of career you might have, or not. Finding a partner if you wanted one. Thinking about being a parent, or not having kids at all. A lot of young people have this vision of how they think their life is going to play out. And at that age, we don't really have enough experience to know that those things almost never actually play out exactly as you expect them to. I mean, just by listening to the guests that I talk to here on the podcast, we know that things happen that we never would have imagined – and life can take a completely different path. My guest today is Mae. In high school, she had her life planned out. She had already met and was in love with her life partner, and they were going to get married as soon as they could, and they were going to have children, and live happily ever after. That's not what happened. This episode has a content warning for domestic abuse and graphic sexual violence, because the fairy tale life Mae had planned gradually turned into a nightmare. Until she finally decided that she'd had enough.

Conwell about his picture book The Boy in the Tree: When Weak is Okay, published by Little Ripples, the new children's imprint from Ripples Media. It's a simple premise with a big payoff: a boy gets stuck high in a tree, fear kicks in, and he has to learn something kids (and plenty of adults) wrestle with—asking for help isn't failure; it's courage. The story is built to support emotional intelligence, naming feelings, and reframing “weak” as a normal part of being human. We also talk about why Little Ripples exists, and why books about resilience, stewardship, and social-emotional learning are landing so strongly right now. Book details: 34 pages, illustrated by Jeff Dehut, published by Ripples Media. The Title sequence was designed and created by Morgan Quaid.

In this episode, I'm talking about a phrase I've been repeating to myself in the branding pen: embarrassment is the cost of entry.We'll explore what this phrase means, why so many of us feel threatened by embarrassment, our addictions to competence, the messy stage of growth, and the wonderful rewards that come from stepping out of our comfort zones.Podcast Episode Highlights:Thoughts on stepping out of our comfort zoneBranding season is comingEmbarrassment is the cost of entry (what this means)Why does embarrassment seem so threatening to us?Addiction to competenceGrowth is so importantThe reward...Final thoughtsResources Mentioned in This Podcast Episode:Follow me on substack here: https://jillwinger.substack.com/Learn more about Meal Craft here: https://mealcraftmethod.com/--> Use the code PODCAST for a $15 off discount on Meal CraftOTHER HELPFUL RESOURCES FOR YOUR HOMESTEAD:Sign up for weekly musings from my homestead: https://jillwinger.substack.com/Get my free homesteading tutorials & recipes here: www.theprairiehomestead.comJill on Instagram: @jill.wingerJill on Facebook: http://facebook.com/theprairiehomesteadApply to be a guest on the Old-Fashioned on Purpose podcast: https://www.theprairiehomestead.com/podcast-guest-applicationDid you enjoy listening to this episode?

Dr. Dacher Keltner, PhD, is a professor of psychology at the University of California, Berkeley, and a leading expert on the science of emotions and human connection. We discuss the science of awe—what evokes it and how to access it. Dr. Keltner explains how awe helps us frame our experience of life and who we are both as individuals and collectively. We also discuss the role of humor in social bonding, dispel common myths about the biology of emotions and review the lesser-known factors that strengthen or inhibit relationships and communities.
