In Aaron Sorkin's latest film, “The Social Reckoning,” the Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg deals with multiple federal investigations and a whistle-blower's revelations about the damage that the company was causing young people. It's a dark sequel to the 2010 film, “The Social Network,” and, this time around, Zuckerberg is played by Jeremy Strong, who's best known as Kendall Roy on “Succession” and as Roy Cohn in “The Apprentice.” Strong undergoes an unusually intense level of preparation to inhabit his roles; he tells David Remnick that he would send Sorkin e-mails, while in character as Zuckerberg, at night after shooting. They discuss why Strong was rankled by The New Yorker's 2021 Profile of him, and his interest in playing characters who are “right on the fault line of everything that's going on in our world right now.” Further reading:“On ‘Succession,' Jeremy Strong Doesn't Get the Joke,” by Michael Schulman“ ‘Springsteen: Deliver Me from Nowhere' Tamps the Boss Down,” by Richard Brody“ ‘The Apprentice,' Reviewed: The Immoral Makings of Donald Trump,” by Richard Brody“Masterstroke Casting in ‘An Enemy of the People,' ” by Vinson Cunningham“Farewell, Kendall Roy,” by Michael Schulman New episodes of The New Yorker Radio Hour drop every Tuesday and Friday.

Alright, everybody, welcome back. Big Sal is in the building, and today we are doing something that I absolutely love doing. We are laughing at the enemy. And this week, ladies and gentlemen, the enemy is coming to us from the beautiful sunshine of Tampa Bay, Florida, where apparently the Buccaneers have decided that 0-3 is a fantastic way to start the football season. That is right. The Tampa Bay Buccaneers are sitting at 0-3, and now they get the Green Bay Packers coming into town. And I don't know about you, but something about that just feels like a very bad week to be a Buccaneers fan. Now listen, I want to be fair here because Big Sal is nothing if not fair. The Buccaneers are not a terrible football team because they're 0-3. They are an NFL football team. They have professionals. They have coaches. They have guys who can run, guys who can hit, guys who can throw, and guys who are considerably more athletic than yours truly. So I'm not sitting here telling you that Green Bay is going down there and they're playing against a bunch of guys they found at the local Tampa YMCA. No. These are NFL players. But here's the problem, Tampa. You are 0-3. You have lost three football games. You have scored your way into a hole, and now you are about to start a rookie quarterback who has never started an NFL game. And who is standing across from him? Jordan Love and the Green Bay Packers defense. Now THAT is what Big Sal calls an interesting situation.   Don't miss a beat of Tundra FM.

Questions about how to balance hating evil and protecting the innocent with loving our enemy, and how we can be salt and light in the world while also resting in the fact that God is in control.   How should we balance hating evil and wanting to protect the innocent with loving our enemy? How can we be salt and light in the world but at the same time rest in the fact that God is in control—i.e., how much should we be involved in the world around us, and is self-care a sin?

What if jealousy isn't a red flag, but information? Christopher and Natalie sit down with Ally Iseman, ICF-Certified Relationship Coach, founder of Passport 2 Pleasure, and forthcoming author of For the Love of Jealousy, to break down one of the most misunderstood emotions in dating and relationships. They get into what jealousy is actually telling you, why most people were never taught to handle it, and how Ally helps executives, individuals, and couples design relationships that fit the lives they're living, not the ones they inherited. If you've ever confused insecurity with intuition, this one reframes everything.

Send us Fan MailSo many women are told their hormones are "off" and sent home with birth control and no real explanation. I know that was my story. But hormones are chemical messengers: they respond to signals from the rest of your body. When they're out of balance, it's a sign something deeper needs support.In this episode, I break down the seven main things I look at in my practice that impact your hormones, so you can see the bigger picture and know there's something you can do about it. In this episode, we cover:Why hormone imbalance is a symptom, not the root causeHow your gut affects estrogen detox (and why I always start there)Your liver's role in hormone detox and thyroid conversionEveryday toxins, endocrine disruptors, and a slow-and-steady way to reduce themHow stress, cortisol, and your nervous system affect your hormonesWhy blood sugar balance might be the most impactful dietary change you can makeThe nutrients your body needs to build hormonesHow your thyroid and sex hormones interactTimestamps:00:00 Why hormones aren't the problem01:47 A client story: from birth control to real answers04:01 #1: Your gut06:18 #2: Your liver07:51 #3: Your environment and toxins12:30 #4: Your nervous system14:46 #5: Blood sugar16:51 #6: Nutrition20:26 #7: Your thyroid21:58 Quick recapResources mentioned:Episode 146: The Gut–Hormone Connection Free Hormone Assessment: find out if your gut might be impacting your hormonesBook a free consultation with me  Subscribe to the Aligned to Rise Podcast: Apple | SpotifyConnect w/ Alyssa:InstagramWebsiteWork w/ Alyssa:Free Period Pain PlaybookWork with me 1:1Cycle Clarity PanelLearn more about AlyssaDisclaimer: This podcast is for educational purposes only.

The Hokies took a while to find their footing, literally and metaphorically, in the pounding rain in Chestnut Hill, but were able to rally late to get the win. This is the first time the Hokies have been 4-0 to start a season since 2017. We Tell the Truth about an ugly and gritty win against Boston College. We then turn our attention to Friday night as we get to the Know the Enemy about a Pitt team that heads to Blacksburg with a similar record and resume. We wrap up as always with our Big Screener picks of the week.

New Money Making Conversations episodes drop daily. I want to alert you, so you don’t miss out on expert analysis and insider perspectives from my guests who provide tips that can help you uplift the community, improve your financial planning, motivation, or advice on how to be a successful entrepreneur. Keep winning! Two-time Emmy and Three-time NAACP Image Award-winning, television Executive Producer Rushion McDonald interviewed Dr. Willie Jolley. SUMMARY OF THE INTERVIEW In this energetic and motivational conversation, Hall of Fame speaker Dr. Willie Jolley joins Rushion McDonald on Money Making Conversations Masterclass to discuss his new book, “Rich Is Good, Wealthy Is Better.” The interview covers the difference between being rich and being wealthy, the mindsets required for long-term financial growth, and how individuals—no matter their background—can build generational wealth. Jolley also emphasizes discipline, humility, planning, multiple streams of income, overcoming setbacks, and the importance of insurance and protection of assets. PURPOSE OF THE INTERVIEW The interview aims to: 1. Introduce and promote Dr. Jolley’s new book “Rich Is Good, Wealthy Is Better” and the teachings within it. 2. Educate listeners on the distinction between rich and wealthy Jolley wants audiences to understand wealth in generational, not short-term, terms. 3. Motivate individuals to shift their financial mindset From “working money” to “mailbox money.” 4. Empower entrepreneurs and families To adopt discipline, drop pride, and create multigenerational financial systems. 5. Share Jolley’s personal setback‑to‑success story To reinforce that anyone can grow wealth with the right principles. KEY TAKEAWAYS 1. Rich vs. Wealthy Being rich = high income, often tied to active labor (e.g., athlete contracts). Being wealthy = passive income, ownership, generational sustainability. A rich football player earns millions; the team owner earns billions and doesn’t have to “run up and down the field.” 2. The Five Money Mindsets Jolley explains five financial mindsets: One‑day mindset – living day to day. 30‑day mindset – fixed incomes/check-to-check living. One‑year mindset – annual thinking (raises, annual income). Decade mindset – typical for entertainers/athletes with multi‑year contracts. Generational mindset (Wealth Mindset) – building wealth to last multiple generations. Jolley’s goal: move people up just one level at a time. 3. Five Types of Wealth Jolley breaks wealth into five categories: Financial Wealth Health Wealth (“A sick person has one dream; a healthy person has a thousand.” – Les Brown) Relationship Wealth Reputational Wealth (Brand) Intellectual Capital Wealth (What you know and can charge for) 4. Discipline Is the Key Wealth requires: Living below your means Investing the difference Consistency Avoiding arrogance and ignorance 5. Pride Is an Enemy of Wealth Pride leads people to overspend to keep up appearances.Jolley argues that pride “kills wealth” and must be replaced with planning and humility. 6. The Three Legs of Wealth To build sustainable wealth, you need: Income Investment (letting money work for you) Insurance (life, health, car, disability, long-term care) 7. Multiple Streams of Income Jolley urges everyone to build at least two streams of income from: Stocks Bonds Real estate Crypto Collectibles Jewelry Art Content creation 8. Overcoming Setbacks Jolley details his own journey from unemployed nightclub singer to globally recognized motivational speaker.He reinforces that a setback is a setup for a comeback—the core message of his earlier bestselling book. 9. It’s Never Too Late to Start He cites examples of: A secretary who retired with $8M by investing small amounts over time Invested $12,000 at age 65 and grew it to $890,000 by age 72 NOTABLE QUOTES FROM THE INTERVIEW On Time & Opportunity “I have only just a minute… but it’s up to me to use it.” On Mindset “Wealth starts in your mind.” On Rich vs. Wealthy “Regular folks work for their money. Wealthy people make their money work for them.” On Pride “My pride was killing my wealth.” On Growth & Learning “If you’re willing to learn, no one can stop you.” [On Setbacks “A setback is a setup for your greater comeback.” On Starting Late “When is the best time to plant a tree?

Today.” #SHMS #STRAW #BEST Money Making Conversations Master Class with Rushion McDonald is America's premier entrepreneurship, business leadership, financial literacy, and wealth-building podcast featuring successful entrepreneurs, executives, founders, celebrities, and industry experts sharing actionable insights for professional and financial success.

How do you tell someone not to poach when they are poaching to eat? Rendani Nenguda, Senior Research Associate at Oppenheimer Generations Research and Conservation, grappled with that question early in her career. Her answer reframes the whole debate: nature underpins everything, so the choice is not whether Africa grows but whether it grows in a nature-supportive or a nature-erosive way. This episode opens a series recorded around the 15th Oppenheimer Research Conference in Midrand (7 to 9 October 2026), where African scientists present African research. Rendani explains why 1.5 degrees globally means far more in Southern Africa, how 747 early-career applicants became three finalists for one USD 150,000 grant, why a new fungus may be named after a schoolchild, and why the cities Africans will live in are not built yet. Share it with anyone who calls conservation a luxury.

Remember God loves you so much he sent his Son Jesus Christ to take the punishment for your sins. You are of great value. Jesus loves you and He is just a prayer away! This episode includes AI-generated content.

Andy Walsh and Jill Elizabeth dig into Derek Walcott's stage version of The Odyssey, emphasizing its Caribbean retelling and how that shift remakes the poem's tone and themes. He says the play's playful language and stage directions make it feel like something that really needs to be seen, not just read. She loved the use of Billy Blind as a bard and the oral‑tradition rhythm that turns the sea from antagonist into companion. They riff on gods who lose clear moral authority, Penelope as more human and teasing, and a delightfully side‑questy Odysseus rather than a pure hero. He reminds listeners this was a member‑voted pick for the All Reading Counts series and she plugs merch and bonus content — all proceeds go to public libraries. It's a warm, witty chat that makes a 3,000‑year‑old story feel refreshingly local, playful, and very stageable. Andy gets the ball rolling and Jill hops right in, and together they peel back Derek Walcott's island-flavored Odyssey with a grin. He teases out the basics—Telemachus hunting for his dad, Odysseus bumbling through Cyclops, Circe, Sirens—while she keeps nudging the Caribbean lens, saying the sea here feels like a neighbor, not an enemy. He compares it to Nolan's big-screen take and Homer's grand poem, she praises Walcott's musical rhythms and Billy Blind as the bardly storyteller who makes the lines beg to be heard aloud. They swap theater-kid banter about how the play probably shines brighter onstage than on the page; he imagines the staging, she imagines the laughs from the servant roles. Casual, funny, and oddly tender about a 3,000-year-old tale getting a new accent. They also wink at the play's playfulness: Odysseus isn't a marble statue of heroism here but a human with side quests and questionable priorities. She points out the clever dialect shifts—formal lines for the high-born, Caribbean lilt for the servants—that poke at who gets taken seriously. He applauds Walcott's wordcraft and the oral-tradition vibe, while she dreams of seeing the Scylla/Charybdis tentacle sequence live. It's a breezy, warm conversation that makes ancient epic feel like a neighborhood tale with punchlines and poetry.Takeaways:Jill praised Derek Walcott's Caribbean-set stage version, noting Billy Blind channels oral storytelling with lively Caribbean rhythm and humor.Andy pointed out that the play's staging would add colors, textures, and comic moments the page alone can't deliver.They reminded listeners that All Reading Counts merch and bonus-episode proceeds are donated to public libraries to promote literacy.Jill observed that setting the Odyssey in a Caribbean lens changes the sea theme into something nurturing rather than purely adversarial.Andy noted Walcott's rewrite makes Odysseus feel more human, distracted, and walked through side quests instead of constant heroics.Jill loved how servants' Caribbean dialects undercut 'proper' language, playfully challenging who and what gets treated as important.They teased a bonus 'Muppet Odyssey' idea, inviting members to hear which fuzzy puppets would play gods, heroes, and the lone human..Be sure to check out our merch, find extra content, and become an official member of Systematic Geekology on our website:https://systematic-geekology-shop.fourthwall.com/.Check out all of our "All Reading Counts" series:https://player.captivate.fm/collection/3706021e-22e5-4598-ae1d-732ec8e275a9.Check out other episodes with Andy:https://player.captivate.fm/collection/c86f7a67-357b-4324-bf95-e42cedb9932a.Check out other episodes with Jill:https://player.captivate.fm/collection/93b2d7c5-1f3a-4fdb-8d87-350f6ca167b9Mentioned in this episode:Get Your SG Merch now!Check out the link to see all of our different t-shirts, backpacks, drinking glasses, pajamas, and more!

Why does solitude sometimes feel less like rest and more like a battlefield?In this teaching on the ancient practice of solitude, John Mark reveals what Jesus and the desert fathers and mothers knew: we don't always go into the quiet place to flee the noise of our lives, but to fight the enemies of our souls.If you'd like to continue exploring what it means to build a life with God in solitude, we have two invitations for you.

Is cortisol really the enemy? Or have we completely misunderstood this essential hormone? In this fascinating conversation, Dr. Erin Kinney breaks down what healthy cortisol should actually look like, how chronic stress can leave us stuck in a cycle of exhaustion, and the surprising signs that your nervous system may be dysregulated. We share our own burnout experiences as we explore the connections between cortisol, blood sugar, thyroid function, perimenopause, caffeine, intermittent fasting, and even fasted workouts. Dr. Kinney also reveals why multitasking, emotional suppression, and stealth infections can keep the body in stress mode—and what we can do to strengthen our “relax muscle.” If you've ever felt exhausted but wired, relied on caffeine to get through the day, or wondered why your body isn't responding to all the “healthy” things you're doing, this episode is a must-listen!Dr. Erin Kinney is a Naturopathic Doctor, speaker, and podcast host who helps stressed-out patients balance their hormones, improve their mood, and restore their energy. She runs a private practice in Annapolis, Maryland, specializing in chronic health conditions related to hormonal and nervous-system imbalances, and has guided more than 7,000 people back to vibrant health through her clinic, workshops, retreats, and online programs.

September 27, 2026James harshly scolded his Christian readers for making friends with “the world”, i.e., all the people on earth who are in active rebellion against God (AKA “The World Club”). This friendship made God their hostile enemy. James called them “Adulterous people” because they, like Israel in the OT, had turned their affection away from God to chase after another lover (in this case The World Club), which aroused God's jealousy and wrath. Big problem. But all was not lost. James said God's grace, a free blessing we don't deserve, is greater than God's hostility, jealousy, and wrath. In this way, God initiates reconciliation with the drifting, disobedient Christians. (The offending Christians also have a role to play in reconciliation; that will be covered in James 4:6b-10 next week)James 4:4-6a

It's easy to recognize evil when it makes headlines. It's much harder to recognize the subtle ways it works its way into our own thoughts, choices, and relationships. Temptation rarely announces itself—it persuades, rationalizes, and tells us the consequences won't be that serious. Examining the voices shaping our decisions can help reveal the places where we may be deceiving ourselves and point us toward a better way forward.  

The enemy wants to create an identity crisis in our lives. While he wants the believer to question their identity, he wants the unbeliever to embrace an identity apart from God. We were all once rebels, but Jesus wants to rescue us from being a rebel to being redeemed. For those who are in Christ, the enemy wants to keep us stuck in our past and defined by our struggles. But when we can't out-think the enemy, we out-truth him with the Word of God. You are not your past. You are not your struggle. You are not defined by your scars but by Jesus' scars. Because of Jesus, you are redeemed, you are new, and you are His. There is only One who has the authority to name you, and it's the One who purchased you. As Satan tries to name you, don't forget that the Savior calls you His. Quit looking back and look up. There's an empty cross and an empty tomb that names you.Check out our video version of this episode: https://youtu.be/jeO3iB91DXISubscribe to our YouTube channel here: https://youtu.be/8wmeCwBf_zkLearn more about us at chestnutmountain.orgFollow us on Facebook & Instagram @chestnutmtn_

Episode Description:A good outcome does not necessarily mean you made a good decision.And a bad outcome does not necessarily mean you made a bad one.That distinction is at the heart of James's conversation with Annie Duke, former professional poker player and author of Thinking in Bets: Making Smarter Decisions When You Don't Have All the Facts.Poker gave Annie an unusually intense laboratory for studying uncertainty. You can make exactly the right decision and lose money. You can make a terrible decision and win. If you judge yourself only by the result, you may reinforce bad habits, discard good strategies, and learn the wrong lesson entirely.James connects this immediately to business, investing, comedy, relationships, and his own experience selling a company during the dot-com boom. When things work out, people naturally want to take credit. When things go badly, they naturally want to blame luck.Both reactions interfere with learning.Annie argues that one of the most valuable skills is learning to separate what you controlled from what you did not. Instead of asking only, “Did I win?” ask whether the process that produced the result was sound.The conversation then becomes an exploration of how to learn faster.Annie says one of the best shortcuts is to “borrow other people's 10,000 hours.” When she entered professional poker, her brother had already spent years around players like Erik Seidel and Dan Harrington. Instead of rediscovering everything through expensive trial and error, Annie entered a community that had already spent thousands of hours thinking about the game.But being around experts is not enough.You have to know how to talk to them. You have to communicate the relevant details. You have to remove the outcome when asking for advice so it does not bias the conversation. And you have to find people willing to challenge you instead of simply confirming what you already believe.Annie describes three essential commitments for a strong decision-making group: a commitment to accuracy, accountability for your beliefs, and openness to dissent.James and Annie also explore the role of teaching. Annie says her own poker game changed dramatically once she had to explain her strategies to students. If you cannot clearly explain why you believe something, you may not understand it nearly as well as you think.The second half of the episode turns toward practical decision-making.Annie explains mental time travel: instead of allowing the emotion of the present moment to dominate a decision, imagine how your future self will view it. A $100 gambling win can feel terrible if you were previously up $2,000, while a $100 loss can feel great if you were previously down $2,000. But one year later, you would simply prefer the $100 win.Perspective changes the decision.James adds his own variation: “situation traveling.” If he cannot see a personal problem clearly, he asks what advice he would give his daughter or how he would handle the same situation in business.They also discuss pre-mortems, negative visualization, planning for obstacles, parenting, “yes, and,” self-serving bias, echo chambers, and the value of saying “I'm not sure.”For Annie, uncertainty is not weakness.It is the beginning of curiosity.And curiosity is what makes learning possible.Editorial Note:This is a From the Archive episode originally centered on the 2018 release of Thinking in Bets: Making Smarter Decisions When You Don't Have All the Facts. Annie has since published How to Decide and Quit: The Power of Knowing When to Walk Away.The episode uses Nate Silver's 2016 U.S. presidential-election forecast to illustrate probabilistic thinking. FiveThirtyEight's final forecast gave Hillary Clinton roughly a 71% chance and Donald Trump roughly a 29% chance—meaning a Trump victory was less likely in the model, but far from a zero-probability event.What You'll Learn:Why a good outcome does not prove that you made a good decision.Why bad luck can follow a strong decision—and good luck can reward a bad one.Why winning can sometimes make learning harder than losing.How ego interferes with honest feedback.What temporal discounting does to decision-making.Why people prefer certainty even when certainty is impossible.How to “borrow” another person's 10,000 hours.Why community can dramatically accelerate learning.How experts know which details actually matter.Why teaching something can expose weaknesses in your own understanding.How to separate signal from noise when evaluating feedback.Why you should often hide the outcome when asking someone to evaluate a decision.The difference between wanting to be right and wanting to be accurate.Why accountability improves decision quality.How disagreement can make a learning group stronger instead of weaker.Why peer groups can become dangerous echo chambers.How to plan for future obstacles before they appear.What Annie means by mental time travel.How James uses “situation traveling” to make emotionally difficult decisions.Why changing your definition of “winning” can change your behavior.Why Annie deliberately dropped down in stakes when learning a new poker game.How saying “I'm not sure” creates hunger for new information.Why experts tend to be more aware of the limits of their own knowledge.How “yes, and” can help someone reconsider a belief without triggering defensiveness.Why improving your learning process even slightly can compound into enormous gains.Timestamped Chapters:[03:03] Thinking in BetsJames introduces Annie and her framework for making decisions when you do not have all the facts.[05:16] Luck, Skill, and the Stories We Tell OurselvesJames remembers selling a company during the dot-com boom and mistaking a fortunate outcome for evidence that he was a genius.[07:36] Why It's Hard to Learn From WinningAnnie and James discuss the tendency to stop examining your performance when the outcome was good.[09:16] Ego and Temporal DiscountingAnnie explains why humans naturally take credit for good outcomes, blame bad ones on luck, and favor immediate emotional rewards.[11:18] Good Decisions Can FailThe conversation shifts from learning to decision-making and the importance of accepting uncertain outcomes.[13:01] Why We Pay to End UncertaintyJames and Annie discuss business deals, pensions, lotteries, and why people accept large discounts to get certainty now.[14:24] Workshopping the Book in Front of AudiencesAnnie explains how years of speaking helped her turn decision science into stories people could actually use.[17:03] Can You Hack the 10,000-Hour Rule?James asks how Annie went from graduate school to becoming one of the world's best poker players.[18:04] Borrow Someone Else's 10,000 HoursAnnie explains why learning from people who have already accumulated expertise can dramatically shorten your own learning curve.[19:57] The Poker Learning PodAnnie describes the community around her brother, including Erik Seidel and Dan Harrington, and how their thinking accelerated her development.[20:43] Experience Is Necessary, but Not SufficientAnnie argues that putting in hours is not enough; you have to know how to interpret feedback.[23:15] Finding the Right Learning CommunityEven if you cannot immediately surround yourself with world-class experts, Annie says you can identify people who are curious, calm, and committed to improvement.[25:06] Why Teaching Made Annie Better at PokerHaving to explain strategy to beginners forced Annie to discover assumptions she could not actually defend.[26:05] The Truth Can AtrophyAnnie uses John Stuart Mill to explain why even correct beliefs become weaker if you never have to defend them.[30:26] Experts, Peers, and BeginnersJames and Annie identify three valuable learning communities: people ahead of you, people alongside you, and people you can teach.[31:10] How Erik Seidel Taught Annie to ThinkAnnie remembers being told to stop describing a poker hand as “unlucky” and instead provide the details needed to analyze the decision.[33:16] Don't Tell Me How the Hand EndedAnnie explains why knowing an outcome can bias the advice someone gives you.[34:30] Why Headlines Invent ExplanationsJames compares outcome bias to financial headlines that explain a market move after it has already happened.[36:27] The Feedback LoopAnnie describes how expert advice, practice, and immediate feedback can dramatically accelerate learning.[38:50] Virtual Mentors Count TooBooks and other resources can give you access to expert thought processes even when you cannot know the expert personally.[39:31] Peer Groups vs. Echo ChambersAnnie explains why a group of peers is only useful if everyone is genuinely open to disagreement and new information.[43:23] Accuracy, Accountability, and DissentAnnie outlines the three commitments she believes make a strong decision-making group.[45:02] Bets as AccountabilityPutting odds on a belief forces you to clarify how confident you actually are.[47:17] Make the Decision Before the Market CrashesAnnie explains how predetermined rules and accountability partners can prevent emotional reactions from taking over.[48:36] Map the Mines Before You Step on ThemInstead of visualizing only a perfect future, Annie recommends identifying the obstacles and disappointments that could derail you.[50:43] The Backdoor Into an Expert CommunityJames uses Judd Apatow and podcasting to show how creating something can give you a reason to approach experts.[52:25] Start With Three PeopleAnnie explains why community does not need to begin with fame or a large audience.[53:55] Nate Silver and the Meaning of 30 PercentJames and Annie use probabilistic election forecasting to show why people routinely round uncertainty down to zero or up to certainty.[57:29] What Probabilities Are Actually ForAnnie explains how forecasts can help people decide where to spend their time, attention, or resources.[01:00:55] Mental Time TravelAnnie introduces a technique for escaping the emotional intensity of the present moment by asking how your future self will view the decision.[01:01:32] The Blackjack TestWinning $100 after being up $2,000 feels terrible; losing $100 after being down $2,000 feels great. A year later, the preference becomes obvious.[01:05:05] Have a Conversation With Your Future SelfAnnie describes using time travel with her children, while James introduces his own version: “situation traveling.”[01:06:10] A Community of Different Versions of YouJames and Annie expand the idea to future selves, situational selves, and counterfactual versions of yourself.[01:09:31] Redefining WinningInstead of defining winning by whether you made money, Annie suggests defining it by whether you learned.[01:12:00] Drop Down in Stakes to Learn FasterAnnie remembers moving from high-stakes Hold'em to tiny stud games because she cared more about learning the new game than protecting her status.[01:15:10] Be Open to DissentAnnie says disagreement is one of the most powerful accelerators of expertise.[01:15:52] The Power of “I'm Not Sure”Certainty shuts down curiosity. Annie argues that acknowledging uncertainty keeps you hungry for information.[01:19:11] Experts Know What They Don't KnowOne mark of expertise, Annie says, is greater awareness of the boundaries of your knowledge.[01:20:07] Decision-Making for ParentsAnnie explains how she redirects her children from blaming a bad test on the teacher toward planning what they can do next time.[01:22:00] “Yes, And” as a Decision ToolJames connects Annie's parenting strategy to improv: accept the current reality, then build forward from it.[01:23:10] David Letterman, Lauren Conrad, and Bad DissentAnnie explains why challenging someone directly can backfire when you have not agreed to that kind of conversation.[01:27:45] How Much Can You Really Hack 10,000 Hours?James asks how much faster deliberate learning can make someone an expert.[01:32:40] You Don't Have to Be Great at ThisAnnie says even modest improvements in recognizing learning opportunities can double how much you learn.[01:35:17] “Suck Less” and Let It CompoundSmall improvements shift the odds over time. Perfection is unnecessary; direction matters.[01:37:06] Thinking in BetsJames recommends the book and summarizes the conversation around uncertainty, community, self-compassion, and learning.[01:38:01] Ryan Holiday's Secret Influence on the BookAnnie explains how the structure of The Obstacle Is the Way and Ego Is the Enemy influenced the way she wrote Thinking in Bets.Additional Resources:Annie Duke — Official WebsiteAnnie Duke — BooksThinking in Bets — Penguin Random HouseHow to Decide — Penguin Random HouseQuit: The Power of Knowing When to Walk Away — Penguin Random HouseAnnie Duke — Alliance for Decision EducationSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Most of us would rather talk about almost anything than money. Jesus didn't share that hesitation. He talked about it constantly. Lead Pastor Josh Carstensen begins a look at four enemies of the heart (money, pleasure, power, and honor), starting with money.Working from Matthew 6 and 1 Timothy 6, he draws a crucial distinction. Money itself is a neutral tool that can do great good or great harm. The real enemy is the love of money: trusting our own resources for our well-being. Whether you have plenty or very little, that pull is real. So why is it so dangerous, and what does it take to fight for a heart that money doesn't master?Part of Northwest Hills' ongoing series on fighting the good fight.Scripture ReferencesMatthew 6:19–21Matthew 6:241 Timothy 6:9–12Key Moments(00:00) Welcome(00:30) Message: Money and the Fight for Your Heart(01:48) Two Words Nobody Wants to Hear from a Pastor(04:33) Four Enemies of the Heart and Our History with Money(08:18) Jesus Talked About Money All the Time(10:05) Reading Matthew 6 and 1 Timothy 6(12:35) Money Is a Tool; the Love of Money Is the Enemy(19:03) Three Reasons the Love of Money Is Dangerous(32:02) If You Want to Move Your Heart, Move Your MoneyMentioned in This MessageMoney, Possessions, and Eternity by Randy AlcornThank you for listening to this message from Northwest Hills Community Church in Corvallis, Oregon, on September 27, 2026, at 8:00am.

Proletarian TV | 14 September 2026 Amber from Thanet for Palestine speaks at the US embassy Nine Elms in London on outs second anniversary. She points out that the most devastating weapon that the monopoly capitalists, that the imperialists use against the workers of Britain and the west, is apathy. The deadening weight of apathy, disillusionment, and the feeling of resignation and powerlessness of a people who have never learned to rise - when resistance now more than ever is called for urgently. The Palestine encampment has created a strong community that has been a thorn in the side of imperialism throughout the genocide. It has reminded us all of the guilt of US imperialism. It has used creativity, art, community, to build resistance and overcome the deafening weight of apathy that our oppressors use against us. There must be such a community in every town and city across the country.

The enemy has been trying desperately to intimidate you. Intimidation through means of fear, through means of overwhelm, through means of anxiety, even through thoughts of not wanting the very things God has been revealing to you. Check yourself – how successful have his ploys of intimidation been? Have you been quietly giving up? Have you been gradually pulling away? Have you been shrinking, fading, losing ground? Sis, what you have to understand is the enemy has only fear tactics and intimidation against you. His threats against you are powerless when you’re covered in the blood of Jesus. 1 John 5:18 tells us that we are held securely by God’s Son and “the evil one cannot touch us”. Do you hear that – HE CAN’T TOUCH YOU. If you have surrendered your life to Jesus you are not only saved by Jesus, but you’re also protected by Him. My dog Tank is a big boy with a fierce bark. In his prime, he was 130 pounds, one of the biggest yellow labs you will ever see. He decides to bark on the very rare occasion when the UPS man seems threatening. And when he does, you notice. His bark sounds furious. But there’s no bite behind his bark. He’s nothing but slobbers and tail wags. He’s anything but a guard dog. A little yappy chihuahua will put him in the corner every time. Sometimes it’s as if we’re walking through this life terrified of a bark that simply can’t bite us. Girl, listen to me – THE EVIL ONE CANNOT TOUCH YOU. We’re so quickly to give the devil credit for the attacks in life, but most often he’s not even the source. Is there a spiritual battle happening all around us? Absolutely! Are we protected? NO DOUBT! As a sold-out follower of Jesus, you are a girl with Heaven on her side. Angels are in charge all around you. God has good plans for your life that cannot be cancelled. Every moment of your life is held in the mighty hands of your Creator. Why in the world would you be intimidated by an already defeated enemy? Why would you play little with your life? Why would you dismiss your God-breathed dreams and desires because the enemy is barking? LET HIM BARK. Let him hate that you are no longer paralyzed in fear. Let him shake when your knees hit the floor each morning and you’re infused with the power of the Holy Spirit. Let him know that Hell lost another one. Show him you’re on a mission to rob Hell and make Heaven crowded! Paul writes in Philippians 1:28, “Don’t be intimidated in any way by your enemies. This will be a sign to them that they are going to be destroyed, but that you are going to be saved, even by God himself.” DON’T BE INTIMIDATED. And Scripture tells us exactly what to do when the enemy comes at us with intimidation. James 4:7, “Submit yourselves, then, to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.” Notice the order: Submit to God, resist the devil. We don’t defeat the enemy by becoming obsessed with the enemy. We don’t spend all day looking for demons behind every difficult circumstance. We don’t have to live on high alert, wondering where the next attack is coming from. We fix our eyes on Jesus, submit ourselves to God, and when the enemy comes with lies, fear, temptation, accusation, or intimidation, we resist. How do you resist? You refuse to agree with the lie. When he says, “You can’t do this,” you remember, “I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.” When he says, “You’re alone,” you remember, “I will never leave you nor forsake you.” When he says, “You should be afraid,” you remember that God has not given you a spirit of fear, but of power, love, and a sound mind. You fight the lie with the truth. That’s why knowing God’s Word matters so much. Jesus Himself responded to the enemy’s temptation with Scripture. He didn’t negotiate with Satan. He didn’t entertain the lie. He answered with the truth of God’s Word: “It is written.” Girl, you need some “It is written” in your life! When fear comes, you need to know what God has already said. When anxiety starts shouting, you need truth louder than the thoughts in your head. When intimidation tells you to back down, you need the Word of God reminding you who you are, whose you are, and who is with you. Ephesians 6:10–11 says, “Be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. Put on the full armor of God, so that you can take your stand against the devil's schemes.” Did you catch that? TAKE YOUR STAND. The goal isn’t that you never experience fear. The goal is that fear doesn’t get to move you. You may feel intimidated and still stand. You may feel anxious and still obey. You may feel overwhelmed and still take the next step. You may hear the bark and still keep walking. That’s courage—not the absence of fear, but refusing to let fear become your master. Your job isn’t to defeat Satan. Jesus has already defeated him. Your job is to remain surrendered to Jesus, stand firm in truth, resist the lies, and keep moving forward in obedience. That’s what intimidation cannot stand against: a woman who knows who she is, knows whose she is, knows what God has said, and refuses to back down. When you fear the enemy you give him hope and confidence in his schemes against you. If he sees his fear tactics against you are successful, he’ll double down to drag you into his darkness and keep you there. He’ll send his demons to attack your mind and discourage your heart. Is that what he’s been doing to you? Girl, are you going to let him have access to your heart and mind like that? But let me tell you what happens when you’re NOT INTIMIDATED by him – he withdraws in defeat. Unlike God, Satan is limited. He does not hold all power. He cannot be everywhere at once. He cannot move heaven and earth. He is not unlimited. Therefore, he continually seeks the weak spot and attacks where his efforts are most effective. He zeros in on what is working. And honey, if his attacks haven’t been intimidating you, then he won’t waste his time continuing. Today, you let the enemy of your soul know you will not live in fear of him. Shut down his fear tactics. Refuse his invitation to overwhelm. Stiff arm his offer of anxious thoughts. Deny his suggestions of no longer wanting everything God has for you. Don’t give him the satisfaction of intimidation. Enemy, you’re wasting your time trying to keep me awake in worry. When my alarm rings, I’m still hitting my knees in prayer. I’m still showing up. I’m still giving God my best. That’s how you defeat him! Satan, the anxious thoughts you try to offer me are straight up denied. You’re wasting your time with the attack on my mind. I know the truth, I stand in the truth, I speak the truth. You are powerless against God and I’m under His divine protection. When spiritual enemies cannot intimidate you, they’ve lost all weapons because all they had was fear and intimidation. Now, you know how to disarm the enemy. Stop listening to him. Stop being influenced by him. Stop believing him. You don’t have to argue with him. You don’t have to fight him in your own strength. You simply have to stand. Stand in truth. Stand in faith. Stand in the authority Jesus has given you. Stand your ground and keep moving forward. Because here’s what intimidation is trying to do: it’s trying to make you smaller than your calling. It’s trying to convince you that the dream God whispered to you is too big, the assignment is too hard, the risk is too great, the people won’t understand, and you’re not capable of doing what God is asking you to do. But God didn’t call you to live a small, safe, fear-controlled life. So get back up, girl. Take back the ground you’ve surrendered. Start praying again. Start dreaming with God again. Start showing up again. Start saying YES to the things God has been putting on your heart. You don’t have to know exactly how it’s all going to work. You just have to be willing to take the next step. The enemy can bark, but he cannot cancel what God has ordained. He can make noise, but he cannot have the final word. He can threaten, but he cannot separate you from the God who holds you. So let him bark. You keep walking. Let him make noise. You keep obeying. Let him try to intimidate you. You keep becoming everything God created you to be. Because, Sis, you are not walking into your future alone. You are walking with Jesus. And when Jesus is with you, fear doesn’t get to decide where you go. The enemy’s bark is not your stop sign. It’s your reminder to keep moving forward. DON’T BE INTIMIDATED. Don’t shrink. Don’t retreat. Don’t quit. Stand up. Stand firm. And LIVE BIG.

Humiliation pervades our politics, from images of stripped Palestinian men in Gaza to mocking chants at MAGA rallies. It suffuses pictures and videos, speaks through bodies as well as words, and is expressed by those with too much power as well as by those with too little. In Driven to Their Knees, Roxanne Euben takes readers from conflicts in the Arabic-speaking world to America's divided public square, advancing a theory of humiliation rooted in the ways people articulate and enact it. Euben analyzes some of the most conspicuous yet least studied Arabic expressions of humiliation, drawing on sources ranging from Qurʾānic commentary by Islamists to videos, poetry, songs, and tweets from the 2011 Egyptian revolution.Driven to Their Knees: Humiliation in Contemporary Politics (Princeton UP, 2025) reveals what the language of humiliation says—and also how it works. This groundbreaking book shows how humiliation expresses the imposition of impotence by those with undeserved power, and the way it converts relations of power into crises of virility. Humiliation rhetoric defines both the humiliated and the humiliator and issues an urgent call for a remedy in the viscerally charged language of emasculation. For Donald Trump and Usama bin Laden alike, this means driving their enemy to his knees for all to see, and then boasting about it to compound the degradation. But for others, humiliation galvanizes their struggle to “stand erect,” uniting them in a refusal to be bowed low. Humiliation is not just about power but is itself a powerful language that does far more than reflect contemporary politics. The language of humiliation remakes the very world in which we live.Roxanne L. Euben is the Walter H. and Leonore C. Annenberg Professor in the Social Sciences at the University of Pennsylvania. Her books include Journeys to the Other Shore: Muslim and Western Travelers in Search of Knowledge; Enemy in the Mirror: Islamic Fundamentalism and the Limits of Modern Rationalism; and (with Muhammad Qasim Zaman) Princeton Readings in Islamist Thought: Texts and Contexts from al-Banna to Bin Laden (all Princeton).Morteza Hajizadeh is a Ph.D. graduate in English from the University of Auckland in New Zealand.

The Cortisol Cure with Dr. Erin Kinney Dr. Karen Litzy sits down with Dr. Erin Kinney, naturopathic doctor, stress physiology expert, clinic founder, and author of The Cortisol Cure, to reframe how we think about cortisol. This episode explains why cortisol is not the enemy, how the body uses it as an energy and anti-inflammatory hormone, and why burnout is often more about an overdrawn energy system than a hormone that simply needs to be "lowered."They also explore practical ways to recognize cortisol depletion, the role of hidden stressors such as nutrient deficiencies and stealth infections, and how clinicians and high achievers can make small daily "deposits" to support resilience. Key topics ·       Why cortisol is better understood as an energy hormone—not just a stress hormone ·       The "cortisol bank account" framework: sleep and rest are deposits, while daily demands are withdrawals ·       Why chronic stress may show up as low cortisol rather than high cortisol ·       How burnout can lead to wired-but-tired energy, fatigue, brain fog, anxiety, and overwhelm ·       How low cortisol can cause the body to compensate with adrenaline and eventually draw from sex hormones ·       The connection between cortisol, glucose, insulin resistance, and inflammation ·       Why perimenopause symptoms can overlap with burnout ·       Hidden internal stressors, including nutrient deficiencies, food sensitivities, Lyme disease, mold exposure, and suppressed emotions ·       Practical support strategies for clinicians and busy professionals ·       Why building a strong "relax muscle" matters just as much as developing the stress response Timestamps 00:00— Why cortisol is not the enemy 01:25— Cortisol as an energy and anti-inflammatory hormone 02:48— The problem with "manage your stress" advice 03:11— Introducing the cortisol bank account framework 04:37— Daily life as energy deposits and withdrawals 05:34— What happens when the cortisol account gets overdrawn 06:02— How low cortisol can draw from sex hormones 07:17— Why cortisol gets blamed for inflammation and glucose spikes 09:02— Why "lower cortisol" is not always the right goal 10:14— Morning cortisol testing and how to prepare 11:41— How to estimate your energy balance before symptoms appear 12:30— The cortisol debt assessment 13:44— Why clinical business owners are vulnerable to burnout 14:41— Dr. Kinney's time-blocking and recharge strategy 15:52— What an overdrawn cortisol account can look like 17:01— How low-cortisol symptoms differ between men and women 18:59— Perimenopause versus burnout 19:53— When hormone therapy helps—and when burnout may be the deeper issue 21:43— Hidden internal stressors that quietly drain energy 22:38— Lyme disease and other stealth pathogens 24:58— The energy cost of suppressed emotions 26:30— Red flags for people who always push through 28:23— Why symptoms may be the body's way of asking for attention 29:47— Practical ways to make cortisol deposits during the day 31:33— Why skipping meals can increase the stress response 32:37— Breath work, reading, and simple recovery rituals 33:37— The nervous system's "stress muscle" and "relax muscle" 35:21— Why relaxation takes practice 36:54— The core takeaway: healing happens when energy exceeds expenditure 37:35— Lightning round: recovery habits and book recommendations 39:07— Meditation, binaural beats, and daily regulation 40:23— Where to find Dr. Kinney and The Cortisol Cure Dr. Kinney's central model treats cortisol like currency: ·       Sleep and rest are deposits. ·       Work, caregiving, exercise, driving, and emotional strain are withdrawals. ·       Symptoms can appear when withdrawals outpace deposits. ·       Small recovery practices throughout the day can help restore balance. More About Dr. Kinney Dr. Erin Kinney is a naturopathic doctor, author of The Cortisol Cure, and stress physiology expert helping high-functioning men and women overcome fatigue, hormone imbalance, and burnout.

A Michigan student brought a deeply personal question to Abdul El-Sayed's University of Michigan town hall.Iman Dashti described alleged persecution of his family under Iran's government and repeatedly pressed the Democratic U.S. Senate candidate to say whether he stood unequivocally against the IRGC and the Islamic Republic.

Dashti pressed him again: did he stand with them?In this video, Professor Nez plays the exchange, examines the question El-Sayed was asked against the answer he gave, and explains why this moment could matter in Michigan's Senate race.Watch the exchange, then tell me: Did El-Sayed answer Dashti's question directly?Subscribe to Professor Nez for coverage of American politics, elections, and the stories behind the headlines.For free and unbiased Medicare help, dial (845) PROF-NEZ to speak with my trusted partner, Chapter, or go to https://chapter.com/nez✅ Free Newsletter: https://bio.site/professornez✅ ORIGINAL MADE IN U.S.A 250TH AMERICA DESIGNS: https://professornez.myspreadshop.com/✅ Check out our Official Clips Channel: https://www.youtube.com/@professornezclips▶ Support the Channel and Buy us a Coffee: https://buymeacoffee.com/professornezChapter compares every Medicare plan to recommend the right coverage for you.

In this enlightening episode, Dr. Cristina Castagnini sits down with celebrity stylist and image consultant Jenni Lee to deconstruct the stressful relationship many women have with their wardrobes. For those struggling with body image or eating disorders, clothing can often feel like a daily battleground of triggers and self-judgment. Jenni Lee shares her "more styling, less shopping" philosophy, explaining how the fashion industry's inconsistent sizing and the poor quality of "fast fashion" are designed to make the consumer feel at fault, rather than the garment. By reframing the body as a "soft sculpture" and a work of art in progress, Jenni provides listeners with practical tools to reclaim their confidence and treat getting dressed as a form of self-care and identity-expression rather than a measure of worth.SHOW NOTES: Click hereFollow me on Instagram @behind_the_bite_podcastVisit the website: www.behindthebitepodcast.com Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Text us a comment or question!What emotions come to mind when you think about food?For far too many people, the answer isn't nourishment, enjoyment, or gratitude. It's guilt, fear, anxiety, confusion, and shame.After decades of conflicting nutrition advice - don't eat fat, don't eat carbs, skip breakfast, eat six meals a day, avoid fruit - it's no wonder so many of us have come to see food as a threat rather than a resource.In this episode of the Behind the Book series, Kevin reads Chapter 8 of his upcoming book, Fully Alive: A Blueprint for Building the Strongest, Healthiest, and Most Meaningful Second Half of Your Life.This chapter explores a powerful mindset shift: moving away from restriction, punishment, and fear -and learning to view food as fuel for the body and life you're trying to build.Kevin explains why calories matter - but aren't the whole story - how chronic under-fueling may be affecting your energy, strength, recovery, cravings, and metabolism, and why the question isn't simply, “How little can I eat?” but rather, “How well can I nourish myself?”In this episode, you'll discover:How decades of conflicting nutrition advice created widespread food fear and confusionWhy labeling foods as “good” or “bad” can damage your relationship with eatingThe important difference between fearing food and respecting itWhy food provides far more than caloriesHow food influences hunger, fullness, energy, recovery, performance, and body compositionWhy the quality and quantity of your food both matterCommon signs that you may be chronically under-fuelingHow prolonged restriction can affect energy, cravings, strength, mood, and recoveryWhy eating less isn't always the answer—especially after 50What it means to approach nutrition with a builder's mindsetHow to make food important without allowing it to consume your thoughtsThe liberating question that can transform your relationship with food: “How well can I nourish myself?” Kevin wants your honest opinion - does Chapter 8 earn its place in Fully Alive?Did it offer a useful new perspective on nourishment and under-fueling?

 Your relationship with pain probably goes one of the two ways…Most people take the conventional route and try to obliterate it with drugs and extreme treatments they may not need (that can hurt them even more than the pain itself).
