Listener stories that blur the line between coincidence and the unexplained take center stage in this eerie and hilarious installment of the Inbox of Oddities. From a respiratory therapist's chilling encounter with a phantom gurney in a forgotten hospital wing to bizarre ‘Boo Effect' moments that connect real life with podcast episodes in uncanny ways, this episode dives deep into strange experiences that refuse to be explained. Along the way, Kat and Jethro explore odd family histories, cryptid what-ifs (would Mothman take a selfie?), mysterious artifacts that shouldn't exist, and the wonderfully weird thoughts that keep us all up at night.

5. The conversation details the collapse of the Hittite Empire in central Anatolia. Despite once being equal to Egypt, the Hittites suffered from poor leadership and internal rot, exacerbated by plagues and famine. Their capital, Hattusa, was eventually burned, possibly by local enemies rather than the Sea Peoples. While the main empire disappeared, "rump states" survived in northern Syria, becoming the Neo-Hittites mentioned in the Bible. Additionally, Cline mentions recent computer modeling that suggests the simultaneous collapse of the Hittites and the port city of Ugarit was sufficient to bring down the entire global trade network.

In most sports, men compete against men and women compete against women. That is generally considered fair, because men are faster, more powerful and have greater endurance.But there is an ongoing controversy about transgender women - people who were born male and now identify as women. Is it fair for them to compete in the women's sport category or do they have an advantage?A study in the British Journal of Sports Medicine recently added to the debate with an analysis that found the strength and fitness of transgender women is “comparable” with that of women.More or Less looks into the research to explain what it does, and does not, say.Contributors:Professor Alun Williams, Manchester Metropolitan UniversityCredits:Presenter: Charlotte McDonald Reporter: Tom Colls Production co-ordinator: Brenda Brown Sound Mix: Gareth Jones Editor: Richard Vadon
In this meeting of The Late Diagnosis Club, Dr Angela Kingdon welcomes Jenna Goldstein, a late-diagnosed Autistic school psychologist who left the public education system after recognising its incompatibility with neurodiversity-affirming practice.Jenna first recognised her own autism after her three-year-old daughter was identified. As she turned to Autistic voices for understanding, what began as advocacy for her child became a deeper self-recognition. Within months, she self-identified, and years later sought a formal diagnosis from an Autistic evaluator to connect more dots and model an Autistic identity for her children.This is a conversation about human rights, blueprint-building, leaving systems that harm, and crafting lives that actually work for autistic nervous systems.

This is Part 4. We want to thank Free Press for making this material available and thank D'Souza for writing it. Thank you, Dinesh. We continue our discussion of Dinesh D'Souza's Illiberal Education: The Politics of Race and Sex on Campus (NY, NY: Free Press, 1991) starting chapter 2, called "More Equal Than Others: Admissions Policy at Berkeley," getting through to page 32 at the top. We do a fair use and a transformative reading of a book I encountered in high screwel at Chatfield High Screwel in Jefferson County, Littleton, Colorado in 1991. I wrote an article about it in my high screwel newspaper, the Chatfield Charter. This is in a series of TRP backstory episodes on The Republican Professor podcast. I believe I originally used my paper route money to buy the book myself at Summit Ministries in Summer 1991 in Manitou Springs, Colorado. Thanks to my Grandpa Mather for sending me those 4 years. The book is "Illiberal Education: The Politics of Race and Sex on Campus" (NY, New York: Free Press, 1991) by a very young Dinesh D'Souza. We want to encourage you to buy the book either used or new. Throw some money at the publisher for the book to reward them for publishing good books. Follow D'Souza on social media and check out his films as well as his books. Get the book and follow along.

Today's episode of The Rizzuto Show gets a full generational shake-up when Rizz's son and his friends roll into the studio with a bold idea: kick the adults out and run the show themselves. Yes, really. Armed with a whiteboard presentation, questionable planning skills, and the confidence that only teenagers possess, the crew gets a firsthand look at what happens when Gen-Z tries to take over a morning radio comedy podcast.The result? Equal parts hilarious, awkward, and surprisingly insightful.The boys pitch their brilliant plan for programming (which mostly consists of “talk about movies… good ones”), while the Rizz Show crew grills them about life, music, and whether people in their 40s officially count as “old.” Spoiler: the teens generously declare that real old age doesn't start until your late 50s… which the adults in the room are extremely grateful to hear.From there, the show turns into a full-blown Battle of the Generations. The teens hand over a playlist of songs they claim to love, and the adults attempt to identify them. That means everything from classic 90s hip-hop like 50 Cent and The Notorious B.I.G. to modern artists like Travis Scott and Don Toliver. Shockingly, the “old people” actually hold their own… which leaves the teens slightly concerned about how cool their parents secretly are.Along the way, the group debates whether teenagers really listen to vintage hip-hop, breaks down how music trends keep recycling every decade, and learns that the Rizz Show crew might be a little more plugged into modern music than anyone expected.There are also brutal honesty moments when the teens attempt to guess Learn's age (a dangerous game), observations about identical high-school haircuts and sweatshirts, and the realization that running a radio show for two hours might actually require more planning than “uh… movies.”It's a rare behind-the-scenes look at what happens when teenagers collide with a long-running morning radio crew — and it turns into one of the most unpredictable episodes of the comedy podcast so far.If you've ever wondered what Gen-Z really thinks about millennials and Gen-X… this episode delivers the answers in hilarious fashion.And if the kids actually take over the show someday… well… at least now we know how that might go.Follow The Rizzuto Show → linktr.ee/rizzshow for more from your favorite daily comedy show.Connect with The Rizzuto Show Comedy Podcast online → 1057thepoint.com/RizzShow.Hear The Rizz Show daily on the radio at 105.7 The Point | Hubbard Radio in St. Louis, MO.St. Peters mom went looking for her daughters at a party.

Making more money doesn't automatically make you financially secure. In this episode, Patrick Rogers and Trevor Rasmussen break down why high earners often feel just as stressed — or worse — than everyone else, and how lack of margin, lifestyle inflation, and poor planning quietly sabotage progress. We discuss why income alone won't save you, how margin creates options, the danger of upgrading your lifestyle too fast, and what real financial security actually looks like. This episode is a must-listen for high-income professionals who feel like they should be further ahead — but aren't sure why they're not.

In today's entrepreneurial world, there is no shortage of conferences, summits, masterminds, and learning forums. But here's the real question: How do you know which ones are actually worth your time, energy, and money? In this episode, Shannon sits down with Dora Rankin to talk about discernment in business spaces - especially in a post-COVID world where the coaching and event industry has exploded with noise, hype, and inflated promises. They dive into: Why entrepreneurs are more discerning than ever The rise of "smoke and mirrors" marketing How to vet event hosts and speakers properly What to look for beyond viral posts and flashy branding Why collaboration over competition is the future How to choose rooms that stretch you without compromising your values The importance of structured sales systems alongside marketing If you've ever invested in a room that felt fluffy, performative, or misaligned — this episode will help you make smarter decisions moving forward. Key Takeaways Not all entrepreneurial events are built on substance — discernment matters. Post-COVID attendees expect measurable ROI, not hype. Viral marketing does not equal proven expertise. Testimonials, references, and tangible results matter more than aesthetics. Alignment with leadership style and values is critical. Growth rooms should challenge you — not manipulate you. Collaboration expands credibility and industry standards. Structured sales systems are as important as marketing strategies.

The abortion conversation in the church is often framed as a political battle—pro-life versus pro-choice, red versus blue. But what if that framing itself is the problem? In this episode of the Thinking Christian Podcast, Dr. James Spencertalks with Angela Weszely, author of Becoming Pro-Grace: Expanding the Abortion Conversation Beyond Life Versus Choice and founder of the Pro-Grace movement, about why Christians need a distinctly theological framework for engaging abortion—one rooted in Jesus rather than political parties. Angela shares her personal journey into abortion ministry, beginning with work at a Christian pregnancy center in downtown Chicago. What she encountered there unsettled her: well-intentioned Christians operating with a deeply legalistic mindset, prioritizing agendas over people and persuasion over presence. That experience led her into a years-long theological reexamination of how grace, dignity, and the gospel should shape Christian engagement with one of the most emotionally charged issues of our time. At the heart of the Pro-Grace framework are two core theological commitments. First, equal value and equal dignity—the Imago Dei applies fully to both the woman and the child, rejecting the false binary that pits them against each other. Second, grace as the path of transformation—real change does not come through coercion, shame, or law alone, but through the radical grace of Jesus that heals hearts and restores relationships. James and Angela explore how political language and party loyalty often distort Christian witness, training believers to see one another as enemies rather than brothers and sisters in Christ. They discuss why laws, while important, are limited tools that can manage brokenness but cannot heal it—and why the church has too often abdicated its responsibility by outsourcing moral formation to government. The conversation also dives into the lived experience of unintended pregnancy. Drawing on years of qualitative research, Angela highlights three dominant emotional realities women face: panic, isolation, and shame. These realities are rarely acknowledged in political debates, yet they shape nearly every decision made in crisis. James reflects on his own family’s experience with a difficult prenatal diagnosis, underscoring how support, community, and compassion dramatically alter the moral landscape. Rather than offering a simplistic solution, Pro-Grace calls the church to something deeper: humility, listening, and imagination. What would it look like for Christians to lead with their kingdom identity, allowing political engagement to be shaped—rather than defined—by allegiance to Christ? What if churches became the safest places for women, men, and families navigating pregnancy, loss, and fear? This episode challenges listeners to rethink not only what they believe about abortion, but how they engage the conversation—inviting Christians into a posture that looks more like Jesus and less like partisan combat. Topics include: Why political frameworks distort Christian witness on abortion The Pro-Grace theological model explained Equal dignity of women and children (Imago Dei) Grace versus legalism in Christian ethics Emotional realities of unintended pregnancy The limits of law and the responsibility of the church Why Christians must lead with kingdom identity, not party loyalty How churches can become truly welcoming communities You can get Becoming Pro-Grace: Expanding the Abortion Conversation Beyond Life Versus Choice at ivpress.com (use code IVPPOD20 for a 20% discount) Subscribe to our YouTube channel

Send a textOne of the biggest surprises in divorce?The law often assumes equal contribution, even when one spouse earned the paycheck and the other carried the invisible labor.This episode of Modern Family Matters explores the critical distinctions between marital and separate property in divorce proceedings, with particular emphasis on how these principles apply to business assets. Host Steve Altishin and Founding Attorney Lewis Landerholm explain that Oregon courts have jurisdiction over all property, but the presumption of equal (50-50) contribution applies specifically to marital assets—property that came into existence during the marriage, regardless of whose name appears on the title. The discussion emphasizes that while courts can divide any property, the burden of proof shifts dramatically depending on whether an asset is presumed marital or separate. When businesses are involved, complexity multiplies exponentially due to valuation challenges, emotional attachments, overlapping areas of law (trademark, copyright, regulatory compliance), and potential post-divorce complications. Let's talk about separate vs. marital property, where this presumption comes from, and how it protects both spouses.If you would like to speak with one of our attorneys, please call our office at (503) 227-0200, or visit our website at https://www.pacificcascadelegal.com.Disclaimer: Nothing in this communication is intended to provide legal advice nor does it constitute a client-attorney relationship, therefore you should not interpret the contents as such.

Friends, we've hit a nostalgia ceiling that I'm not sure we can ever eclipse. Equal? Probably, but never exceed. I honestly don't remember a time in my life when Batman wasn't around. The earliest memories of my grandfather are playing Batman with him on a rusty swing set. Mickey and Charlie share similar stories as we cover Batman 1989. Well...I say cover...we talk more about Batman memories than we do the film. Please join the three of us as we take a walk down a long nostalgic road and a little bit of movie talk.

The duo analyzes Persia's historical resilience, noting that even Rome struggled to subdue the empire and eventually had to treat it as an equal. They argue Americans lack "cultural sensibility," viewing Iran through modern clichés rather than recognizing its history of surviving imperialism. A thought experiment explores the potential for internal collapse, suggesting that both the US and Iran risk fracturing into independent, warlord-led "statelets" if central authority fails.1700 AENEAS
Rebecca Hinds: Your Best Meeting Ever Rebecca Hinds is a leading expert on organizational behavior and the future of work. She founded and led the Work Innovation Lab at Asana and the Work AI Institute at Glean, where she partners with leading experts to help organizations transform their work with AI. She is the author of Your Best Meeting Ever: 7 Principles for Designing Meetings That Get Things Done (Amazon, Bookshop)*. Considering the amount of time we all spend in meetings, it's odd that most organizations do so little to measure meeting results. If that's sounding familiar, this conversation between Rebecca and me will show you exactly how to get started. Key Points Metrics that only measure the costs of meetings (dollars and time) can be useful, but rarely capture the full picture. Use Return on Time Invested (ROTI) anonymously to survey attendees to determine if a meeting was a good use of time. Also ask, “What would it take for you to improve your rating by one point?” Survey sparingly to avoid survey fatigue. Bringing in a survey 10% of the time is a benchmark to start from. If the amount of time in meetings vastly exceeds 10 hours a week, there's likely an opportunity to scale back or redefine the work before or after meetings to use time better. Equal speaking time in meetings is a key indicator of team performance. Be transparent with employees about any technology you use to capture data. Punctuality and attendance rate are indicators of how valued meetings are for people.

Show Summary:In this episode, Natasha and Claire explore the fascinating world of robots and robotics—from the driver's seat of their Tesla cars to the competition floor of First In Texas robotics. Natasha shares firsthand insights from her work in competitive robotics, while both hosts reflect on how robotics is already shaping our everyday lives.You'll also hear the inspiring story of George Devol, the inventor who helped launch the modern robotics industry, and why his legacy still matters today. The conversation dives into how and when students should be introduced to robotics, practical ways to spark curiosity, and why robotics education is more important than ever in preparing the next generation for a rapidly evolving world.Plus, the episode wraps with exciting recent feats in STEM that highlight just how fast innovation is moving.Whether you're an educator, parent, tech enthusiast, or just robot-curious, this episode offers insight, inspiration, and a glimpse into the future.ENGINEER SPOTLIGHT: George Devol (1912-2011) was an American inventor who helped start the modern robotics industry. George, fascinated by circuits and mechanics, loved experimenting with electronics and machines. In 1954, he patented the first programmable robotic arm, a machine that could move objects automatically by following coded instructions. Working with engineer Joseph Engelberger, he built Unimate, the world's first industrial robot. In 1961, it was put to work in a car factory, handling hot metal parts and doing dangerous jobs that once put people at risk. Devol's invention changed manufacturing forever and helped pave the way for the robots we use today.Links from the Show:Related The STEM Space Podcast Episodes 105.

In this episode, Mike and Tim ask a provocative question: Is "Christ is King" becoming blasphemy? They begin by analyzing recent political rhetoric, specifically a speech by Pete Hegseth, to discuss how biblical language can be hijacked for coercive power rather than reflecting the character of Jesus. The hosts argue that proclaiming theological truths while living in opposition to the way of Jesus is a distortion of "faith and politics." The conversation then shifts to a deep exploration of the Lord's Prayer and the petition, "Your Kingdom come." Mike and Tim unpack the concept of the "anti-kingdom," explaining that Jesus preached the Kingdom of God in enemy-occupied territory. They explore "theology" regarding the "powers and principalities," looking at the Divine Council in the Psalms, the "heavenly host" in Genesis, and how the biblical authors understood the spiritual forces behind structural evil and injustice. This isn't just about ancient myths; it is about understanding "the role of the church in society" when facing systemic corruption. By contrasting the "cruciformity" of the Gospel with the power dynamics of empire, the guys offer a framework for "navigating cultural challenges" with wisdom. They highlight that true "Christianity" recognizes the spiritual battle at play—not just in individuals, but in cultural patterns and ideologies. As the hosts discuss the "seen and unseen" realms, they emphasize the importance of prayer and "justice" in a world that is both beautiful and broken. We encourage and would love discussion as we pursue these complex topics, so please engage the conversation on Facebook and Instagram.

They look so beautifully abandoned, even in use. You say they look like arks after the sea's dried up, I say they look like pirate ships, and I think of that walk in the valley where J said, You don't believe in God? And I said, No. I believe in this connection we all have to nature, to each other, to the universe. And she said, Yeah, God. And how we stood there, low beasts among the white oaks, Spanish moss, and spider webs, obsidian shards stuck in our pockets, woodpecker flurry, and I refused to call it so. So instead, we looked up at the unruly sky, its clouds in simple animal shapes we could name though we knew they were really just clouds— disorderly, and marvelous, and ours.

A decades-long research project has learned that the quality of our lives depends on the quality of our relationships. And what a tragedy that so many of us do not have the tools to create deep, intimate, connected relationships. We have a tendency to hide our true selves behind half-truths, behind saying we're 'fine' when we're not, behind being so amenable and accommodating that we never rock the boat. And yet, in seeking to keep things low-maintenance and easy, we are being dishonest with ourselves and with our partner about who we really are, what we really desire and prefer, and we show up instead as a shallow shell of who we really are. Until we truly learn how to be honest with ourselves and with our partners about who we are and what we really want, we will never be able to create the equal partnerships so many of us crave.

In this episode of The Box of Oddities, Kat and Jethro begin exactly where all great mysteries begin: with a frozen burrito and a deeply personal kitchen ritual that absolutely does not need to exist—but does anyway. From there, things escalate quickly. What starts as a discussion of oddly satisfying micro-rituals (the kind everyone has but no one can justify) turns into a deep dive beneath the sands of Egypt, where recent radar imaging claims suggest something massive and geometric may exist far below the Pyramid of Khafre. We're not talking about a hidden chamber or a forgotten hallway. We're talking about enormous cylindrical shafts, spiraling downward hundreds of meters, arranged with unsettling precision. Are these structures real? Are they geological accidents? Or are they deliberately engineered spaces—older than the pyramids themselves—designed for purposes we no longer understand? Kat and Jethro explore theories ranging from ancient engineering marvels to acoustic resonance chambers capable of inducing altered states of consciousness. Chanting, vibration, infrasonic frequencies, and architecture as a mechanism for transcendence all enter the chat. Along the way, the conversation veers (as it always does) into related oddities: Stonehenge acoustics, the Dyatlov Pass mystery, binaural beats, and the idea that sound itself may have been one of humanity's earliest tools for altering perception and brushing up against the unknown. Then, just when you think you're safe, we go underwater. Meet the Bobbit worm—also known as the bearded fireworm—a real, very ancient, nightmare-fuel marine predator that hides in sand, senses vibrations, and snaps prey in half with terrifying speed. Equal parts fascinating and horrifying, this ten-foot ambush worm becomes an unexpected mirror to the episode's earlier themes: ancient design, patience, hidden systems, and things that wait quietly beneath the surface until the moment they strike. This episode blends humor, history, speculative science, biology, and the deeply human urge to find meaning in rituals, structures, and creatures that predate us by millions—or even billions—of years. From kitchen counters to subterranean spirals to venomous sea monsters, The Box of Oddities asks the question it always asks best: not just what might be down there—but why the idea of it makes us so uncomfortable.
