Today, Razib talks to Coltan Scrivner, a behavioral scientist, horror entertainment producer, and author, whose work centers on the psychological and evolutionary roots of our fascination with darkness, horror, and true crime. He is affiliated with the Department of Psychology at Arizona State University. Scrivner also serves as the executive director of the Nightmare in the Ozarks Film Festival and founded the Eureka Springs Zombie Crawl. He has been featured in The New York Times, CNN, The Wall Street Journal, NPR, TIME Magazine, National Geographic, Scientific American and Forbes. He is the author of Morbidly Curious: A Scientist Explains Why We Can't Look Away, where he explores how our fascination with horror functions as a survival-oriented, yet deeply human, impulse. Though working in psychology and behavior, Scrivner's original training is in biological the sciences, and Razib first probes him on the possible evolutionary origins of our persistent interest in horror, and why we might actually be attracted to the phenomenon in the first place. Scrivner also explains how the horror genre differs from other narrative forms, in particular, the power imbalance that makes heroic action and tension much more difficult. Horror, in fact, primarily leverages our intuitions about how predator and prey interact, more than a battle between peers. Scriver also discusses the relationship between fear and our dreams, and the various psychological and evolutionary theories for why we might have so many nightmares.

Key Takeaways: The rise of digital money: The growing use of digital currencies like Bitcoin marks a major shift in the global financial system and challenges old ways of thinking about money. Bitcoin as the new foundation: Because it's scarce and secure, Bitcoin is becoming the core asset—or “heart”—of the modern financial world. Shift assets strategically: Smart investors are using assets like real estate as collateral to invest in Bitcoin-backed opportunities for stronger returns. Plan smart for taxes: A good tax strategy reduces financial strain, improves cash flow, and helps grow long-term wealth. Recognize signs of change: Things like social unrest, high debt, and declining trust in traditional systems show we're moving toward a digital-based economy—spotting these trends early can create financial advantages.

What is consciousness actually doing?In this episode of Mind-Body Solution, neuroscientist and theorist Dr Adam Safron joins Dr Tevin Naidu to explore one of the most ambitious frameworks in contemporary consciousness science - Integrated World Modeling Theory (IWMT).IWMT unites leading theories like Integrated Information Theory (IIT), Global Workspace Theory (GWT), and the Free Energy Principle (FEP) into one powerful vision: that consciousness is the brain's model of its own embodied relationship to the world.Together, they examine:- How consciousness might function as a control system for adaptive intelligence- Why embodiment and emotion are essential to conscious experience- Whether consciousness is truly causal, and how this reframes free will- How psychedelics, meditation, and altered states reveal the structure of the self-model- And what IWMT tells us about AI, evolution, and the universe itself Bridging neuroscience, philosophy, and cybernetics, this conversation invites you to rethink what it means to be aware.TIMESTAMPS:(00:00) – Introduction (02:15) – Why Consciousness Matters in the Universe(05:24) – What Is Integrated World Modeling Theory (IWMT)?(09:03) – Modeling the Self, Modeling the World(12:12) – Consciousness as Embodied Simulation(16:38) – Is Consciousness Causal?(20:25) – Agency and the Active Inference Brain(24:30) – Free Energy & Free Will(29:17) – The Hierarchy of Minds(34:42) – From Computation to Experience(39:28) – Why Consciousness Defies Reduction(43:05) – The Psychedelic Brain and World Modeling(47:56) – The Role of Emotion in Consciousness(52:12) – Consciousness and Causation: The Recursive Loop(57:20) – Evolution, Embodiment & the Origins of Mind(1:02:00) – Artificial Minds & Synthetic Consciousness(1:07:25) – The Cybernetic Universe Hypothesis(1:12:38) – Psychedelics & AI(1:24:45) – Engineering Artificial Consciousness(1:27:10) – Toward an Integrated, Compassionate Understanding of Mind(1:44:00) – ConclusionEPISODE LINKS:- Adam's Website: https://www.adamsafron.com/- Adam's X: https://twitter.com/adamsafron- Adam's Channel: https://www.youtube.com/@AdamSafron/- Adam's Publications: https://scholar.google.com/citations?user=dZOoilgAAAAJ&hl=enCONNECT:- Website: https://mindbodysolution.org - YouTube: https://youtube.com/@MindBodySolution- Podcast: https://creators.spotify.com/pod/show/mindbodysolution- Twitter: https://twitter.com/drtevinnaidu- Facebook: https://facebook.com/drtevinnaidu - Instagram: https://instagram.com/drtevinnaidu- LinkedIn: https://linkedin.com/in/drtevinnaidu- Website: https://tevinnaidu.com=============================Disclaimer: The information provided on this channel is for educational purposes only.

This week we are discussing Evolution (2001) with special guests Courtney and Hannah from That Nostalgia Show! We're talking the dubious educational value of the movie, the strangely stacked cast, the painful 2001-ness of it all, and debate the relatability of Julianne Moore's character. We wonder when we as a society stopped mooning, second-guess David Duchovny's career decisions, laugh at the US-centrism, and desperately try to find any bright spots among all this alien goo.Please support our guests and check out That Nostalgia Show, available wherever podcasts are found!Send us an email at scullynationpod@gmail.com or follow us on Instagram!

In this insightful episode, Tina Tower dives deep into how building a personal brand can be one of the most powerful, leveraged assets for entrepreneurs—especially course creators, thought leaders, and those seeking longevity in their business journey. She shares candid stories from her own evolution and breaks down the scalable pillars that help you stand out and thrive in today's business landscape. Key Topics Covered Personal Brand vs Business Brand: Tina Tower shares her early days of physical hustle—newspaper ads and flyers—before realizing the potential of personal branding for free, scalable visibility. Personal brand isn't about your logo or colors; it's about you, your story, and your unique perspective. Evolution and Authenticity: The journey from projecting what you "should be" to genuinely showing up as yourself, as Tina Tower recounts her shifts through various business stages and fashion choices. Examples from fellow entrepreneurs like Naomi Simpson highlight how a signature style (like always wearing red) can become a memorable brand cue, yet it's okay to evolve. AI's Impact on Personal Branding: Tina Tower discusses leveraging AI to scale her expertise, but emphasizes the irreplaceable connection that comes from real human interaction. As technology accelerates, authentic personality remains the differentiator. Why Personal Brand Matters: Trust, connection, and aligned clients are all built through personal brand. Success and credibility from previous ventures carry over, so you never start from scratch when you've cultivated reputation. Personal brand attracts the "right" people and repels those you're not aligned with—a competitive advantage and a filter. Pillars of Scalable Personal Brand: Message: What are you known for? Is your content reflecting this consistently? Media: Cultivating visibility through podcasts, newsletters, social media, articles—be consistent but don't feel pressured to be everywhere. Momentum: Stay visible; use systems, repurpose, and don't let fear of judgment hold you back. Overcoming Fear & Judgement: Common blocks like the fear of being "too much" or "not enough," and worrying what friends or family might think. Tina Tower shares practical approaches to quiet those fears and stay focused on your business and personal growth. Practical Steps: Build teams and systems once you're earning over $100k to amplify your brand. Collaborate, seek out media features, and show up with confidence and conviction. Get feedback from trusted peers to ensure your brand matches your intentions and current evolution. As Tina reminds us, your personal brand isn't something you create once—it's something you live and evolve. It's the ongoing story of who you are, what you stand for, and how you show up for the people you serve. Whether you're just starting out or refining your next chapter, remember: your greatest business asset is you. So keep showing up with courage, consistency, and conviction—because the world doesn't need a more polished version of you, it needs the real one.

My guest is Dr. Jennifer Groh, PhD, professor of psychology and neuroscience at Duke University. She explains how our brain encodes sights and sounds and integrates them so we can navigate and understand the world around us. She explains what thoughts really are and how what you focus on determines your thoughts, not just in that moment but your future thoughts too. We discuss this in the context of how to improve your level of focus and happiness and how to complete tasks and task-switch more effectively. We also discuss how you can rewire the neural circuits that underlie your default patterns of thinking and attention.

Technological revolutions rarely unfold the way we imagine. From the steam engine to AI, each wave reshapes who creates value - and who gets left behind. What if artificial intelligence isn't a revolution at all, but a late-stage innovation like shipping containers - transforming efficiency without changing the underlying system? Jerry Neuman joins the Jacob Shapiro Podcast and questions whether openness still drives progress, whether innovation can survive without risk, and why the next great leap forward might not be digital, but something we haven't yet learned to see.--Timestamps:(00:00) - Introduction(01:17) - Jerry Newman's Background and Career Journey(07:40) - The Evolution of Technology and Job Markets(12:52) - Impact of AI on Future Jobs(17:14) - Geopolitics and Technological Innovation(26:28 Comparing Historical and Modern Technological Revolutions(29:48) - Debating the Future of Innovation in Open Societies(31:35) - The Rise and Skepticism of Bitcoin and Cryptocurrency(35:11) - AI and the Next Technological Revolution(40:53) - The Impact of Containerization on Global Trade(52:17) - Speculating on Future Technological Innovations(57:18) - The Importance of Nurturing Innovation--Referenced in the Show:AI Will Not Make You Rich - https://joincolossus.com/article/ai-will-not-make-you-rich/--Jacob Shapiro Site: jacobshapiro.comJacob Shapiro LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/jacob-l-s-a9337416Jacob Twitter: x.com/JacobShapJacob Shapiro Substack: jashap.substack.com/subscribe --The Jacob Shapiro Show is produced and edited by Audiographies LLC.

Change can energize or paralyze—so we chose energize. We sat down with Eric Silverman, founder of Voluntary Disruption and a four-time guest, to unpack what's actually moving the needle in enhanced benefits today. The surprise? Products haven't radically shifted, but execution has. Simple, high-interest options like pet insurance, ID protection, legal plans, and life paired with long-term care continue to win attention. The real breakthroughs are how teams communicate, guide choices, and run enrollment with less friction and more trust.We dig into decision support tools and their mid-market roadblocks, then map how AI can personalize choices with Amazon-like clarity. Think smart nudges that connect plan design to real life: a high-deductible plan paired with accident coverage, or young families steered toward urgent care-friendly options. We also trace a major distribution shift—from carrier direct to advisor-led strategies—where brokers step up to own the full package: medical, pharmacy, disability, life, and voluntary. That move isn't just good practice; it's how you reduce risk across absenteeism, presenteeism, and unexpected costs.Communication is where results jump. Text-first outreach beats inbox fatigue. Short, captioned videos from HR leaders outperform generic vendor clips. Family-focused messaging, including the emergency contact, turns open enrollment into a shared decision. We share a practical playbook: launch midweek, keep enrollment windows short, host content on a 24/7 microsite with searchable chapters, and go off the January 1 cycle to escape fourth-quarter chaos. Virtual, self-service enrollment replaces one-on-one sales pressure and leaves a clean digital trail that cuts buyer's remorse and HR headaches.If you advise employers—or lead HR—and want better participation without arm twisting, this conversation gives you the modern blueprint. Subscribe, share with a colleague who needs a smarter enrollment strategy, and leave a review with your top takeaway so we can dive deeper next time.This episode is sponsored by Benepower, the platform of choice for a modern benefits experience.

Scott Melker says the U.S. Senate bill allowing crypto assets to be included in mortgage risk assessments is a “game changer” for U.S. crypto owners. “I don't think there's any risk to this,” he says, it is only a “natural evolution” of the industry. He argues the only reason it hasn't been adopted already is the industry is just slow to adapt.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.

Welcome back to Intellicast! On today's episode, Brian is joined by Henry LeGard, CEO and founder of the fraud detection company Verisoul, for an in-depth discussion on the evolving state of data quality and fraud detection in market research. We kick off the podcast by having Henry share how Verisoul, a company built initially to stop banking and fintech fraud, has quickly become one of the most talked-about new players in market research. He details how the company came to be, and how they entered the market research industry in 2025 with zero clients and are now protecting nearly 100 million survey clicks per month across the industry. Henry explains how Verisoul's advanced fraud detection platform has had such a rapid impact on the industry. He shares how the team applied financial-grade fraud-prevention techniques to survey data collection, enabling them to detect and block the most sophisticated forms of digital fraud, including device spoofing, cross-continental proxy traffic, and bot farms operating at scale. From there, Brian and Henry dive into Verisoul's newly released Market Research Quality Report, which Henry describes as the largest fraud analysis ever published in the industry. For the report, the team analyzed more than 50 million sessions across 3,700 mobile apps in 190 countries, using a new proprietary technology that can identify the exact app where each respondent originated. Henry explains how this innovation was crucial in uncovering real patterns of fraud across the ecosystem, revealing which app categories generate the cleanest and riskiest respondent traffic. Brian and Henry also discuss how Verisoul's findings challenge many long-held assumptions about data quality. While larger apps and panels tend to have lower fraud rates, older respondent sources didn't necessarily perform better. The study also found that just five mobile apps accounted for more than 10% of all detected fraud, underscoring how small clusters of bad respondent sources can distort large portions of the industry's data. Later in the episode, Henry offers a perspective on the evolving sophistication of fraud, explaining that much of today's market research fraud is human-driven rather than automated. Organized groups in low-income countries are using SIM card farms, aged burner domains, proxy networks, and more to appear as legitimate U.S. or European respondents. Henry and Brian also talk about how Verisoul's recently launched transparency initiative — a “fraud or not” ranking, complete with a lighthearted tomato-throwing Easter egg for bottom performers, is designed to help the industry recognize who's getting data quality right. Rather than shaming providers, the goal is to encourage progress, reward transparency, and strengthen collaboration around fraud prevention. To close out the episode, Brian and Henry discuss Verisoul's creative marketing campaign, “We Smoke Fraud,” which debuted at the ESOMAR Congress in Prague. What started as a marketing stunt ended up earning the company some serious attention from venture capital investors. For those who live and breathe data quality, this episode is for you.

OVER the past few months, our team of analysts has been quietly at work, giving our shadow fleet* watchlist a huge revamp. For those not in the know, the list identifies vessels that fit a specified set of criteria making them likely candidates for the shadow fleets serving Russia, Iran and Venezuela. As the sanction campaigns from the UK, US and EU intensify, the behaviour and identifying characteristics of these vessels has changed — telltale giveaways in 2023 are not the same in 2025 at all. With that in mind, we thought we'd bring on our two in-house shadow fleet experts to explain what's changed and why you should take notice. Lloyd's List reporter sat down with Lloyd's List senior risk and compliance analyst Bridget Diakun and maritime risk analyst Tomer Raanan to understand how things have changed.
