Tuesday Topics will once more tackle an issue that we think deserves atffention. We live in polarizing times! Politically our nation is perhaps more divided than it has ever been. Within our very own organization it sometimes seems that civil discourse is replaced by uncivil recourse to inappropriate messaging. Are there ways to defuse this level of irreconcilability? Can we find ways to interact with each other in ways that produce dialogue rather than log jams? We certainly can't change where our country is with a single program but we think we can open'ly explore some communication techniques that might help! We can also engage each other in ways that demonstrate what apposite communicating looks like! Debbie Hazelton, a professor and psychologist, will join us to help explore division and dialogue. Peter Altchul will also be with us! Find out more at https://acb-tuesday-topics.pinecast.co

After we performed our Śyāmā Kālī Pūjā this year (which you can watch here), we took up a short, concise but I think quite concentrated discussion on how image worship, the danger of superimposing our projections unto Kālī & the check and balance of taking seriously what Her saints have had to say about Her through their own mystical experiences throughout history. Most importantly, we point to the two "extreme" ends of the spectrum when it comes to Kālī devotees and we propose a sort of synthesis of these two, that I pray, will lead to a deeper felt sense of the inscrutability and immediacy of Mā Kālī's unfathomable, all-pervasive wild power! (We recap some material from the How To Say Grounded & Reasonable In Kālī Pūjā lecture also to renew our commitment to śāstra, lineage, and accountable, honest and reasonable spiritual instruction. Support the showLectures happen live every Monday at 7pm PST and again at Friday 11am PST Use this link and I will see you there:https://www.zoom.us/j/7028380815For more videos, guided meditations and instruction and for access to our lecture library, visit me at:https://www.patreon.com/yogawithnishTo get in on the discussion and access various spiritual materials, join our Discord here: https://discord.gg/U8zKP8yMrM

In this long-anticipated episode, host Peter Bauman (Le Random's editor in chief) speaks with one of the most exciting duos in contemporary digital culture, Ann Hirsch and Maya Man. They cover their collaborative projects, Ugly Bitches and Little Darlings, which explore online gender performativity. We discuss the works in relation to the so-called "vibe shift" of the 2020s. The artists also discuss how their work, often using GANs and other AI technologies, counteracts the "girl boss" rhetoric of early 2020s NFT projects by presenting a more flawed, nuanced, and sincere depiction of both femininity and masculinity. They detail how UB uses intentionally distorted AI dolls to comment on female failure, while LD employs shinier AI imagery to critique the "hustle grind gain success" male influencer culture. Finally, the conversation touches upon their admiration for, and points of departure from, the "Gay NFT" or Avant Schizocollage scene, with the artists expressing an interest in "ironic sincerity" in their work.Monday's Editorial with Jess Tucker: https://www.lerandom.art/editorial/jess-tucker-on-longing-for-a-faceChapters

In this explosive TWR Wednesday, Sam, Max Sand, and Mortheous examine two political figures who—despite living on opposite ends of the ideological spectrum—share a common, dangerous thread.On the far-right: Nick Fuentes, a neo-Nazi sympathizer whose toxic influence continues radicalizing disaffected young men online.On the far-left: Zoran Mamdani, New York City's new radical-left mayor whose open communist sympathies threaten to accelerate the city's political and economic decline.Both men preach extremism.Both reject nuance.And both ultimately seek to undermine America from within by replacing democratic norms with their own authoritarian visions.The crew breaks down:How both Fuentes and Mamdani weaponize grievance politicsWhy extremes from either side destabilize the countryThe role of media ecosystems in amplifying fringe ideologuesHow cultural decay creates fertile ground for radicalsWhy America desperately needs nuance, balance, and actual debate—not ideological cult leadersNo tribalism. No sugarcoating.

Summary: Ants are such diverse organisms that extremes have evolved. Join Kiersten to learn about some ant extremes.   For my hearing impaired followers, a complete transcript of this podcast follows the show notes on Podbean   Show Notes:  “Tales from the Ant World” by Edward O. Wilson Music written and performed by Katherine Camp   Transcript (Piano music plays) Kiersten - This is Ten Things I Like About…a ten minute, ten episode podcast about unknown or misunderstood wildlife. (Piano music stops)   Kiersten - Welcome to Ten Things I Like About… I'm Kiersten, your host, and this is a podcast about misunderstood or unknown creatures in nature. Some we'll find right out side our doors and some are continents away but all are fascinating.  This podcast will focus ten, ten minute episodes on different animals and their amazing characteristics. Please join me on this extraordinary journey, you won't regret it. In this penultimate episode I thought we'd talk about the extremes of ants. The fastest, the slowest, the fiercest, and maybe a few more. The ninth thing I like about ants is the extremes. Edward O. Wilson studied ants for his entire life, give or take a few years when he was still in diapers, and that was 92 years. He discovered species we didn't know about and described ant behaviors that boggled our human minds. It is no surprise that he included some of the extremes of ant life in his writings.  Something I had no idea about when I decided to pick ants as my next topic was that each species of ant has it's own tempo. Not unlike music, this is the speed at which worker ants get things done. Some colonies are speedy as a tornado and others are as slow as molasses in winter, but they all get the job done. Each tempo fits the niche that a specific species fills in their habitat. Sometimes fast wins the race while other times slow persistence fairs better.  The fastest ants on Earth may very well be the workers of the genus Ocymyrmex. There are 34 known species in this genus and are found in most of eastern and southern Africa. Their chosen habitats are hot, hot, and hotter. Ocymyrmex, or swift ants, have streamlined bodies with very long legs attached with thick segments at the base. The mandibles are narrow and fit tightly against the head when folded. Their spiracles, air holes through which they breathe, are large. Ocymyrmex are built to be sprinters.  On a trip to Gorongosa National Park in Africa, Edward Wilson came across a colony of Ocymyrmex and wanted to grab a few for the Harvard University Lab. By this time in his career he'd caught a lot of ants, so he was well versed in the best ways to snatch a few specimens. The first obstacle he had to overcome was the extreme heat emanating from the mud flat on which the ants were running. It felt like a stove top, so kneeling down to catch some ants was going to be a challenge, but he was up for it. He positioned himself above the workers, readied his forceps, and caught not one single ant. The workers were just moving too fast. He could barely follow them with his own eyes much less grab them with forceps. A quote from his book Tales from the Ant World, “The ants were moving like a sizzle of water droplets in a frying pan, difficult even for the eye to keep track.” End quote. Those are some fast ants! Ocymyrmex are made for sprinting but another ant, which is a double extremist, is made for marathons. Ants in genus Cataglyphis are long-distance runners and Cataglyphis bicolor is one of the most heat tolerant animals known to western science. These ants live in the Sahara desert and are mainly scavengers. They search for dead insects and other arthropods that have succumbed to the heat of the desert to dismantle and bring back to the nest.  Cataglyphis bicolor can withstand temperatures up to 158F,  or 70C, but they must keep moving. If they stop, they fry. Talk about a good reason to keep moving. Let's look at the opposite side of tempo, the slowest ants in the world. Ants in genus Basiceros are as slow as ants can get without dying. These ants are found in Central and South America. They are not well studied and; therefore, poorly understood. The main problem is they are incredibly difficult to find. If you can't find it, you can't study it.  What we do know is Basiceros ants are medium in size and rely on their camouflage to survive. Their opaque brown color closely matches the fallen leaves and mold in which they live. They do hunt for food and like any other slow moving predator they are ambush predators. They simply wait for prey to come to them, lunge, strike, and seize it. They will stalk prey, as well, just at a very slow pace. If they are discovered by something, or someone, uncovering their hidden pathways under the leaf litter they freeze and will remain still for minutes at a time to protect themselves. Edward O. Wilson says of them, “Their tempo may be as slow as an ant species can employ and still survive.” End quote. The Basiceros ants are also an extremist twofer. They are the slowest ants and also the dirtiest ants, which may be a linked trait. When Edward Wilson stumbled across some Basiceros in Costa Rica and transferred a colony to Harvard to study, they realized that the brown color of the ants wasn't just camouflage to blend in with the dirt, it was dirt. The bodies of these ants are covered in coiled and feather-shaped hairs that essentially collect dust and debris. They use the dust and debris to hide amongst the leaf litter.   The colony of Basiceros studied at Harvard demonstrated this in an unexpected way. At the university, the colony that was brought back and housed in tunnels made of plaster of Paris. Within several weeks of living in the man-made tunnel the ants had turned white! They had replaced their dirt colored garments with the white plaster of Paris so they could blend in with their new habitat! For the last extreme we will discuss lets's look at timidity and fierceness, both serve ants well in different situations. Dolichoderus imitator is probably the most timid, or least offensive, ant in the world. This small ant lives in the Amazon rainforest of South America. Most colonies typically consist of a few hundred workers and a rarely seen queen. They nest in random cavities of decaying leaf litter and do not set up permanent colonies. If they are disturbed, by person or predator, they scatter in all directions. Nothing seems to be directed; although, they do pause long enough to pickup the closest larva or pupa to take with them. The individuals will shelter in any covered place they find nearby waiting for the danger to pass. The colony will reconvene in another random clump of leaves elsewhere. Maybe the transience of their nests breeds timidity for survival reasons.  On the other side of the coin is fierceness. There are several candidates for the fiercest ants in the world. Our first candidate is the bull ants from Australia. They are in the genus Myrmecia and the largest workers are the size of hornets. They nest in craters of soil and are not intimidated by any creature that comes near, including something as big as a human. Edward Wilson has seen them lock their large eyes onto an animal simply walking by the nest. Sentries will turn and watch and if you come close, they walk toward you. If they catch you, you will regret it. When the interloper makes the correct decision to leave, they follow up to 10 meters, or 32 feet, to make sure you don't come back.  Bull ants are pretty scary due to their size, but ants that live in symbiosis with a specific bush or tree are even scarier, especially if you come in contact with them in their home. The guardian ant, Pseduomyrmex triplar, are found in palo alto trees common in Colombia. In 1770 Jose Celestino Mutis happened upon these ants in an unpleasant encounter. He paused under a palo alto on a hot sunny day and quickly found himself covered in red ants that were continuously stinging him. There were so many and they were stinging so fiercely that he had to remove all of his clothes and jump into the nearest body of water.  Edward Wilson gives his vote for most ferocious ant to the tree-dwelling Amazon ant Camponotus femoratus. These ants are also know as the epiphyte garden-ants. They live in the trees and use soil and vegetable detritus gathered from the ground and surrounding branches to build spherical ant-gardens around certain species of epiphytes. Epiphytes are plants that grow on the surface of another plant but does not harm the host plant. The ants' nest is held together in part by the roots of the epiphyte. A quote from Edward Wilson's book Tales from the Ant World tells us all we need to know about why he voted these as the fiercest ants in the world. Quote, “When I turned and walked downwind toward the colony, a swarm of workers erupted almost instantaneously. As I came closer, but still without touching the nest, the defenders went berserk. Piling up on top of one another, they reached out toward me with the abdomens of many pointing in my direction and spraying a cloud of formic acid.” End quote. I see what he voted the garden ants as the fiercest ants in the world! There are many more extremes in the ant world, but I have already gone over time for this episode. I'm glad you joined me for my ninth favorite thing about ants, their extremes.  If you're enjoying this podcast please recommend me to friends and family and take a moment to give me a rating on whatever platform your listening. It will help me reach more listeners and give the animals I talk about an even better chance at change.  Join me next week for another exciting episode about ants.        (Piano Music plays)  This has been an episode of Ten Things I like About with Kiersten and Company.

What if the biggest public space in your city isn't a park—it's the street right outside your door? We sit down with author and planner‑geographer David Prytherch to rethink roads as social infrastructure and unpack why “complete streets” is only the starting line. From the rapid legal and engineering turn that handed streets to cars a century ago to the community‑led experiments that reclaimed asphalt during the pandemic, this conversation traces the power dynamics that shape everyday mobility—and how to change them.We dig into mobility justice in plain language: not just bikes versus cars, but who feels safe, who gets heard, and where public money actually lands. David lays out how pop‑ups, parklets, and open streets create a cognitive shift that policy can lock in, and why “messy shared space” often calms traffic better than paint and signs. You'll hear practical, scalable ideas—default speed humps, daylighted intersections, neighborhood greenways, curb‑level plazas—and a frank look at bottom‑up versus top‑down delivery. Boston's standardized traffic calming and Queens' 34th Avenue transformation show two paths to lasting change, each grounded in data, culture, and community stewardship.If you care about safer streets, small business vitality, public health, or equitable access, this episode offers a toolkit and a mindset. We share a reading list—from Peter Norton's Fighting Traffic to Mimi Sheller's Mobility Justice—and outline how cities can move from car hegemony to people‑first design without breaking budgets.

From deadly semi-truck crashes caused by illegal immigrant drivers with improperly issued CDLs in California to the horrifying cartel crimes of La Diablo, Tara dives into the shocking consequences of federal and state policies under Biden and Newsom. The episode also examines the rise of extremist figures within the Democratic Party, including candidates openly embracing violent or Nazi-linked imagery, and what this signals about political radicalization. With hidden-camera insights, federal audits, and national security intelligence, Tara unpacks how lawlessness — both on American highways and within political circles — is escalating with deadly results.

AI is not just hype, it's the next economic revolution. In this solo episode, we break down the game-changing insights of Jordi Visser, macro investor and founder of @VisserLabs, as he unpacks how AI is reshaping global markets, jobs, and the financial system. We'll explore why AI is driving trillions in new capital investment, how it's changing labor markets, and why Bitcoin (BTC) may be the “purest AI investment play.” Plus, I share my real-world experiences using AI agents, n8n workflows, and automation tools to streamline work and build new digital products.  Key Takeaways Jordi Visser says betting against AI = betting against innovation. $500B+ in AI infrastructure investment coming by 2026.

Womanhood Wellness is where functional medicine meets feminine wisdom—guiding you to balance hormones, awaken libido, and prepare for pregnancy with intention. Join todayWhat if chasing health and beauty ends up making us sick, anxious, and disconnected?This episode is all about choosing joy instead of fear and questioning the pressure to do everything “right,” from Botox to seed oils. That lens applies to everything, hair dye, kids' snacks, and even the bread at an Italian restaurant. We need to ask what actually serves our bodies and our stress levels.The internet is a great resource, but it has created immense confusion around wellness because for every idea you can easily find an opposition with just as much conviction. We explore that same middle ground in fertility, where IVF might make sense for some while natural approaches fit others. Of course, we always bring it home to motherhood and discuss screens, childcare, and the everyday mess of trying to balance it all without losing ourselves in the extremes.You'll Learn:[00:00] Introduction[06:09] Where the line blurs between natural beauty choices and Botox[09:08] The hidden costs of breast implants and why “safe” options aren't risk-free[10:18] How losing facial expression with Botox may impact kids and human connection[22:33] Why obsessing over toxins or food rules can harm more than help[26:11] The mindset shift that transforms health choices from fear to joy[32:56] Navigating the nuanced spectrum between fertility treatments and natural approaches[38:57] How to balance being present with your kids while still holding boundaries[41:25] The real struggles of working motherhood and why guilt shows up on both sides[51:06] Why extremes create suffering and why most wisdom lives in the middleResources Mentioned:Healthy as a Mother podcast episode on How to Handle Sibling Fights with Ralphie Jacobs | Apple or Spotify or YouTubeFind more from Dr. Leah:Dr. Leah Gordon | InstagramDr. Leah Gordon | WebsiteWomanhood Wellness | WebsiteFind more from Dr. Morgan:Dr. Morgan MacDermott | InstagramDr. Morgan MacDermott | WebsiteUse code HEALTHYMOTHER and save 15% at RedmondFor 20% off your first order at Needed, use code HEALTHYMOTHERSave $260 at Lumebox, use code HEALTHYASAMOTHER

Glenn, Mike, and Mike tackle the cultural and political controversies dominating today's headlines — from the debate over Indigenous Peoples Day to the growing crisis at America's borders. The trio challenges the “stolen land” narrative, calling out political hypocrisy and historical oversimplification. They dive into illegal immigration, voter ID laws, and the mass exodus of Democrats moving to the Republican Party, especially in states like Florida. Plus, they weigh in on Hollywood's obsession with representation, Antifa's true nature, and the push to send the National Guard into crumbling blue cities. It's classic Financial Guys: unapologetic, sharp, and rooted in common sense.(00:00:37) Indigenous People's Day(00:09:11) Working-class Concerns and Illegal Immigration Policies(00:10:54) Florida's Tough Stance on Crime and Immigration(00:15:46) Working Class Democrats Switch to Republicans(00:19:43) The Intersection of Gay Rights and Voting(00:23:53) Election Integrity Measures: Advocating for Voter ID(00:25:51) Debunking the Myth of Antifa Organization(00:30:56) Cultural Diversity in Hollywood Media Industry(00:35:14) Political Figures' Impact on Public Opinion.(00:46:28) Urban Cleanup: Unlikely Support for Troop Deployment

Thomas Thornton, founder and president of Hedge Fund Telemetry, returns to The Julia La Roche Show to discuss extreme market conditions with investors "all in, levered, and complacent." He argues we're at a blow-off top characterized by record call buying, leverage through ETFs, and a gambling mentality fueled by 0DTE options and sports betting culture. Thornton highlights dangerous market mechanics: the Goldman Sachs most shorted basket is up 38% year-to-date, meaning short sellers have been squeezed out and won't provide natural buying support during corrections. He notes extreme concentration risk with 10 stocks comprising 40% of the S&P 500, and Nvidia alone responsible for 18% of market gains. Technical indicators show exhaustion signals while the market continues higher on narrowing breadth. Thornton identifies AI trade risks including slowing CapEx growth, insufficient power infrastructure, and water constraints for data centers. He rebuts bull arguments by comparing current conditions unfavorably to 2000, noting $38 trillion in debt versus $4 trillion then. He explains why the Fed can't save markets this time due to Treasury market dysfunction. Currently positioned net short with disciplined risk management, Thornton predicts people will look back on 2025 and say "the signs were so obvious." He advises investors to lower exposures and leverage, warning that opportunities will come when his indicators reach oversold levels and nobody wants to buy.This episode is brought to you by Monetary Metals. https://monetary-metals.com/julia Links: https://www.hedgefundtelemetry.com/https://www.x.com/tommythornton Timestamps: 0:00 - Introduction and welcome1:02 - "People are all in, levered, and complacent" - Market positioning3:43 - Gambling mentality and comparison to past market cycles5:20 - How leverage and zero DTE options change market dynamics7:39 - "Market correction or something worse" - What's ahead7:52 - "I definitely think we're at a blow off top"9:20 - Goldman Sachs most shorted basket and dangerous market mechanics11:51 - Passive ETFs and leverage risk12:46 - Market sentiment analysis with charts14:13 - CNN Fear & Greed Index critique15:30 - DeMark indicators flashing exhaustion signals18:22 - Goldman Sachs most shorted basket technical breakdown19:01 - Concentration risk: 10 stocks = 40% of S&P 50021:28 - Call buying extremes and put/call ratios23:23 - AI trade risks and CapEx spending concerns25:42 - Energy and water constraints for AI data centers30:28 - Market narrowing despite new highs32:40 - Bull case rebuttal: Why this is different from 200034:48 - Why the Fed can't save the market this time36:22 - Net short positioning and risk management strategy39:44 - "The signs were so obvious" - How we'll remember 202541:35 - Long idea: Golar natural gas infrastructure play44:28 - Hedge Fund Telemetry overview and parting advice

CONTINUED Professor John Cochrane: Professor John Cochrane of Hoover Institution addresses the fervent debate over the Federal Reserve's independence, with critics from both political extremes advocating for more accountability. He points to the Fed's expanded activities since 2008, including "subsidizing Wall Street," and alleged missteps that contributed to inflation and a problematic housing market. Cochrane argues for a more limited Fed, focused strictly on inflation, to preserve its independence and public trust, suggesting that its broadened scope jeopardizes its core mission and credibility. 1897 BANK OF ENGLAND PARLOR

Episode Summary: In this episode, I'm unpacking the new Netflix documentary Fit for TV about The Biggest Loser—and the uncomfortable parallels to today's GLP-1 craze. On The Biggest Loser, contestants were willing to humiliate themselves, punish their bodies, and risk their health for rapid results. Fast forward 20 years, and we're seeing the same mentality play out in a different form—this time with injections. Just like the show, GLP-1s promise dramatic, fast weight loss. But behind the glamor lies a dangerous truth: severe caloric restriction, significant muscle loss, and a metabolism that slows to a crawl. And when the meds stop—because of side effects, cost, or insurance changes—most people find themselves right back where they started, but worse off. This isn't about hating the drugs. It's about raising a flag. It's about questioning our obsession with extremes and asking: why are we willing to do the most drastic things for a quick fix, but so resistant to the slow, sustainable path that actually works? The truth is, real change doesn't come from the extremes. It comes from mastering the basics and building consistency—the thing no one wants to talk about because it feels too slow. But slow is the only way that lasts. What You'll Learn in This Episode: Why Fit for TV is a cautionary tale for the GLP-1 craze The hidden costs of extreme approaches—whether it's reality TV or injections How muscle loss and metabolic slowdown set you up for long-term struggle Why the slow, unglamorous work is the only thing that sticks How to shift out of the “one chance” mindset and into daily, consistent action Ready to Stop Chasing Extremes? If you're tired of quick fixes that don't last, The Consistency Course is for you. This program is designed to help you finally master the basics and build the steady, sustainable habits that actually work—for life. It's not flashy, and it's not about overnight transformations. It's about consistency. It's about proving to yourself that you can stay in the game. It's about freedom from the cycle of starting over again and again.
