It's the final Rom-Com Vom—and we're going out with a true vom. DB is joined by the brilliant Kate from CRAMPED to dissect No Strings Attached, a film so bafflingly bad it makes you double-check that yes, it really did come out in 2011. They unpack the film's deeply weird messages about women, work, and love, from its rare-but-still-weird period scene to its tired idea that ambitious women just need to be “fixed” by emotionally unavailable men.

In this episode, Tony Brewer exposes the trap of viral religion and spiritual busyness—a form of Christianity that looks active but lacks obedience. From clickbait memes to emotional manipulation masked as faith, Tony lays bare how today's digital expressions can simulate faithfulness while actually undermining it.He challenges listeners to examine the difference between genuine obedience and superficial gestures, reminding us that true service to God is rooted in scripture, not feelings. Tony also shares updates on collaborative work with Aaron, ideas for promoting his Locals community, and the broader challenge of redirecting people from performative Christianity to purposeful discipleship.This conversation is both convicting and equipping—calling believers to return to the Word, return to the work, and follow the Shepherd who still leads His sheep.

We live in a culture of extremes—where the loudest voice wins, emotional manipulation masquerades as influence, and overcorrection has become the new dysfunction. We see it in our families. We feel it in our churches. And when it finally shows up in our relationships, we wonder why everything feels so chaotic. This week on Win Today, Manny Arango is here to pull the curtain back on the deeper issues no one wants to admit. Together, we're talking about the generational cycles of chaos we've inherited, how manipulation uses fear to gain control, and why overcorrecting for past pain only produces more dysfunction. And at the center of it all? The worship of self, disguised as confidence, but rooted in pride. In this conversation, Manny exposes: The hidden tactics of emotional manipulation that we normalize How to recognize and break generational cycles of chaos Why overcorrection is not healing—it's reactionary bondage What it really means to dethrone the god of self and let Christ take His rightful place If you're tired of pretending, if you're sick of spiritual language being used to control, and if you're ready to break the cycles that have defined your family and your faith, this episode will confront you, challenge you, and call you higher.

I've never used ChatGPT. Couldn't tell you how to do it. So, not surprisingly… I've never used AI for life guidance. And I never will. Because turning to algorithms for soul advice? That's not evolution—it's devolution. But…asking AI for life advice and personal goal-setting is ACTUALLY TRENDING. Heavy sigh. This week, I'm naming what's happening underneath all the dopamine hits. We've worked too hard to break free from shallow psychotherapists and profit-centric Priestesses to fall for Chat-f*cking-GPT subbing as our next spiritual advisor. Want real wisdom? Put the phone down. It's less sexy, and the dopamine is modest. But the results of self-referencing and a loving support system lead to your radiant power. In this episode: Why asking AI for spiritual guidance or life advice is a dangerous dependency Fawning as emotional manipulation—human and algorithmic How AI reflects your hungry ghost back to you (with charm) What true, self-sourced consciousness looks like in a world of synthetic wisdom MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE: The Heart Centered Collective.

Hamish McLaren is a serial fraudster. Remember the podcast Who the Hell Is Hamish? He defrauded victims of their money for more than 30 years before he finally saw the inside of a prison cell. Tracy Hall was his last victim, losing over $317,000 of her life savings to Hamish while in a relationship with him for 18 months. Hamish didn’t just financially manipulate Tracy; he emotionally destroyed her. It’s taken her years to recover from that kind of deceit. She processed it by writing a book, The Last Victim, which details her story. You can find The Last Victim here. RESOURCES What to do if you're scammed, defrauded or there is a data breach.

People who were traumatized in the past can be easy targets for people seeking CONTROL. Has this happened to you? If your sense of self is not yet strong, it's easy to fall under the spell of someone who will TELL you who you are. They'll what you should do and if you push back, they will punish you. This is narcissistic abuse. It's emotional manipulation. And it's how people can be "brainwashed" to believe anything.

This episode delves into the often-negative connotations of the word 'cult' and its intriguing connection to 'culture' within the context of business. Inspired by a client's unique perspective, the discussion seeks to reframe our understanding of cults by analyzing their key characteristics: intense devotion, charismatic leadership, strong group identity, and rigid structures. The script explores how these elements can be applied positively to create strong, effective company cultures without the negative psychological manipulations often associated with cults. Key points include the importance of a compelling vision, charismatic leadership, rituals, and a strong sense of community. The episode offers insights into using these cult-like dynamics to foster personal and professional growth within a business setting, while emphasizing the ethical considerations involved.Chapters00:00 Introduction: What is a Cult?00:30 Redefining Cult: A New Perspective02:18 Famous Visionaries and Cult-like Followings04:17 The Power of Belief Systems05:20 Sociological and Psychological Definitions06:59 Creating a Positive Business Culture15:28 Charismatic Leadership and Community19:47 Rituals, Symbols, and Shared Language21:43 High Standards and Accountability23:13 Us vs. Them Mentality24:31 Personal Transformation and Growth25:46 Emotional Manipulation and Buy-In29:34 Final Thoughts: Cult vs. Culture Thank you for supporting Building Great Sales Teams!

Making you irrelevant is emotional manipulation because it seeks to send you a message that you don't matter at all to get you to feel a certain way so you will behave a certain way.

Unmasking the Flynn Narrative: Digital Soldiers, Emotional Manipulation, and the Q Movement In today's MG Show, Jeffrey and Shannon take a deep dive into the enigmatic figure of General Michael Flynn and the web of narratives surrounding his rise as a so-called hero within the "Digital Soldier" network. From his ties to the controversial Q movement, to his portrayal as a key figure fighting against the deep state, the episode exposes the layers of emotional manipulation and misinformation that have created a cult-like following around Flynn. The hosts explore Flynn's murky past, including his alleged involvement in international scandals and his deep connections with foreign governments, which are often overlooked by mainstream conservative voices. Figures like Alex Jones, Dan Bongino, and Steve Bannon have amplified Flynn's narrative, creating a climate where any criticism of Flynn is dismissed as opposition to Trump or betrayal of the America First movement. Jeffrey and Shannon pull back the curtain on the emotional manipulation tactics used by Flynn and his supporters, who often employ alarmist rhetoric to rally donations and support, while dismissing critics and raising questions about the monetization of the Q movement. As MG Show faces backlash for questioning Flynn's motives, the hosts offer a factual, independent perspective on this increasingly divisive figure. Join us for this in-depth discussion on how the Digital Soldier network, social media influencers, and emotional appeals have created a cult-like following that may be undermining true conservative values. **Keywords**: Michael Flynn, Q Movement, Digital Soldiers, Emotional Manipulation, Trump, Deep State, Alex Jones, Dan Bongino, Steve Bannon, Cult-like Atmosphere, Independent Journalism, MG Show, America First
There can be a lot of emotional manipulation happening in the modern church today. What should our perception be about the types of methods and practices used in the church today that could be doing more harm than good? While it isn't usually intentional, how do we respond to this problem? Does Scripture offer a solution? Hi, I'm Mackenzie. I'm a music artist, worship leader, wife, mom (I wear a lot of hats), and host of the Godly Whistleblower podcast. I seek to shine a light on popular teachings and music in the church today and share what Scripture teaches on how we are to worship in spirit and in truth within the church gathering. My desire is to learn together with my listeners how Christians are to live lives ultimately as a pleasing worship to God. If you enjoyed this episode, I'd appreciate so much if you left me a review!
