SCHEDUKE JBS 7-21-26Elizabeth Peek joins John Batchelor to discuss how rising gasoline prices act as a talisman for consumer sentiment and presidential approval. Despite low unemployment and rising real wages, the public remains fixated on energy costs. Peek criticizes Republican messaging and highlights the massive AI-driven investment boom currently occurring. (1)Elizabeth Peek discusses New York mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani's inability to define the "working class." She argues the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) primarily represent white, college-educated liberals rather than manual laborers. They also discuss Kevin Warsh as a potential Fed chairman and the independence of interest rate decisions. (2)Peter Berkowitz examines Vice President JD Vance's views on restoring Christianity in America. Berkowitz highlights the ambiguity in Vance's stance regarding government involvement in religion. They contrast Vance's rhetoric with James Madison's historical opposition to state-funded religion, emphasizing the constitutional separation of church and state. (3)Ahmad Sharawi reports on Syria's interception of sophisticated Iranian weapons—including cruise missile components—destined for Hezbollah. The weapons were concealed in Iraqi oil tankers. This move is seen as Al-Shara's attempt to gain international trust and investment by demonstrating a commitment to containing Hezbollah's rearmament. (4)Mary Kissel discusses the ongoing conflict with Iran in the Strait of Hormuz. She argues there is no diplomatic overlap because Iran views nuclear weapons as essential for survival. Kissel notes the lack of a broad international coalition and warns that regional allies might seek accommodation with Tehran. (5)Mary Kissel turns to NATO's lack of unity regarding the Ukraine war. Kissel argues that while Eastern Europeannations feel the threat, Western Europe focuses on domestic politics. She highlights the emergence of a "new alliance" of Russia, Iran, and China, which poses a significant hybrid threat. (6)Joseph Sternberg analyzes China's struggling economy, noting that official growth targets are likely overstated. Facing a real estate crater and demographic decline, China is reverting to an export-heavy model. Unlike Japan's past recovery, China's adversarial stance makes trading partners less willing to absorb its gluts. (7)Joseph Sternberg discusses the transition to Prime Minister Andy Burnham in the UK. Burnham, who took office without an election mandate, faces a heavily taxed economy and bond market skepticism. Sternberg critiques Burnham's big-government agenda and resistance to market reforms, suggesting it may drive away wealth. (8)Gregory Copley evaluates Prime Minister Andy Burnham's new cabinet, specifically John Healey as Chancellor and Wes Streeting as Defense Secretary. While the government aims to boost defense spending and support Ukraine, Copley questions its legitimacy without a fresh mandate and notes a lack of long-term global strategic planning. (9)Gregory Copley covers the alienation of Canada under the Trump administration. Copley explains how Canada is diversifying its defense procurement—buying Swedish aircraft and Australian radar—rather than relying on the US. This shift threatens the NORAD partnership and results in billions of dollars lost for US aerospace industries. (10)Gregory Copley explores the "balance of ignorance," where declining literacy and social media lead to a loss of national identity. He argues that governments make poor strategic decisions because they no longer understand their own history or adversaries, citing the current US conflict with Iran as a primary example. (11)Gregory Copley explains King Charles III's role in forming Andy Burnham's government. The King's "blessing" provides constitutional legitimacy to the transition. Copley notes Burnham is the first practicing Roman Catholic Prime Minister and highlights the King's departure to Glasgow to open the Commonwealth Games. (12)Former Congressman Thaddeus McCotter discusses how rising gas prices and inflation hurt Republicans in swing states. They also examine the Trump administration's use of the Smoot-Hawley Act to threaten tariffs on Canada. McCotter views these as punitive measures that weaken the broader argument for necessary trade protections. (13)Thaddeus McCotter comments on a recent presidential address regarding the 2020 election. He argues that claiming the system is "rigged" is counterproductive for Republican turnout. McCotter suggests that voters care far more about the "price of gas" and groceries than relitigating past elections that the party lost. (14)John Batchelor and Peter Huessy review classic nuclear war films like Godzilla, On the Beach, and Dr. Strangelove. Huessy argues that while these films highlight the horrors of nuclear use, real-world focus has evolved toward deterrence and sophisticated safety systems designed to prevent accidental or unauthorized missile launches. (15)Peter Huessy continues the discussion of nuclear films like Fail Safe and The Day After. Huessy disputes claims that The Day After motivated Ronald Reagan's arms control efforts, noting Reagan was a committed advocate for nuclear reductions long before the movie's massive 1983 television broadcast. (16)Corrections applied silently: Ahmad Sharawi (4) and Thaddeus McCotter (13, 14) per the log.

Melik Kaylan and Gordon Chang. Melik Kaylan suggests Putin is increasingly isolated, facing potential threats from his own Praetorian guards as domestic desperation grows. However, the dismissal of Ukraine's popular defense minister, Mykhailo Fedorov, may have inadvertently delayed Putin's demise. Fedorov, credited with turning the tide of war through digital innovation and anti-corruption audits, was sacked following infighting with "Old Guard" military leadership, sparking protests in Kyiv.

Today's real sober mom Chelsea grew up in a home where alcohol wasn't seen as a problem. As the child of two drug addicts, Chelsea was raised to view alcohol as a ‘safe choice' in comparison to hard drugs. So, when Chelsea began drinking at age 14 she thought nothing of it. Chelsea went to work in retail right out of high school to be there for her family. After meeting her future husband in New York, she pivoted into becoming a funeral director - a career path rife with alcoholism due to the emotional heaviness of the job. Things took a very challenging turn in 2020. Shortly after the birth of her son who had congenital defects, Covid arrived and Chelsea's work became extremely intense. The circumstances took a toll and she began experiencing worrisome health issues. Tests revealed she had muscular dystrophy. Shortly after, Chelsea received a call. Her father had OD'd. Facing her father's death and the changes in her own life, Chelsea realized she never wanted to put her children through anything like what she'd experienced with her parents. She was looking for a change. All of this led to a casual plan with her husband to take a short break from alcohol in December of 2023. During this brief window, Chelsea had a massive wakeup call. She learned alcohol's impacts on our bodies and lives, and how big alcohol was preying on moms to get them addicted. Chelsea realized - big alcohol had scammed her! She wasn't going to let that stand. Chelsea is now 2 ½ years sober! She wants you to know there is never a ‘perfect' time to begin sobriety. The best time to start is now.

Some children answer questions immediately. Others need minutes, or even days, to think before they respond. In a fast paced world, those slower processors can easily be mislabeled as indecisive or anxious. In this episode of Facing the Dark, Wayne and Dr. Kathy explore new research showing that deep verbal thinkers often process life more thoroughly than others realize. Together, they discuss how parents can distinguish between unhealthy rumination and healthy reflection while learning to nurture children according to the unique ways God designed them to think.

C.J. Stroud may face more pressure than anyone on the Texans this season, but he is far from alone. Seth examines what Stroud must prove before Houston commits to a massive long-term contract—and why waiting another year may be the smartest move. The pressure also extends to offensive coordinator Nick Caley, whose partnership with Stroud must produce a cleaner operation, a functional running game and a more explosive offense. Plus, Nick Caserio needs his offensive-line investments to start paying off, Henry To'oTo'o is playing for his next contract, and rookies such as Kayden McDonald enter camp with high expectations. Seth also discusses what David Montgomery can bring to the offense and identifies a few opposing players who will be under the microscope when they face Houston this season.

Gratitude is often treated like a nice family exercise, but research suggests it's far more powerful than that. In this episode of Facing the Dark, Wayne and Dr. Kathy explore a large international meta analysis showing that gratitude strengthens resilience, improves relationships, enhances sleep, and shapes character. Together, they discuss why gratitude is one of the foundational virtues parents can cultivate and how every family can practice it in ways that fit the unique ways God designed their children to learn.

When we study this paragraph, we are infused with optimism.

Insider trading isn't new, and it's not legal. But a long-time White House teleprompter operator -- the person who'd run the teleprompter for the President's speeches -- is now out of a job over allegations that he used privileged information to bet on what the President would say in his speeches. Unfortunately, Greg and Holly say it seems pretty on par with the way things have been going in Washington. And now, lawmakers like Senator John Curtis are calling for harsher and more thorough crackdowns on insider trading.

The sleep-deprived parents of a sleepless baby stumble upon a potential relief on their way to a Martian superstore. Genre: Science Fiction   Excerpt:A soft beeping began to sound. The shuttle's computer was calling for the attention of a manual operator. She saw the mapping system's failed attempts to reroute. She put her hand on the dashboard and gave it a gentle rub. "I think we're in the right place." She raised a brow theatrically. "But are we in the right time?"   The Wheel of Fiction Turns.

Facing forward, sitting on the ground, a couple leaning towards each other with their heads touching and their eyes closed. At left, a woman, her right leg outstretched out of frame, and her left leg bent. She loosely holds a baby or young toddler in her arms. The baby's hands grip her forearm. His eyes are open and looking up and to the left (his right). At right, a man, sitting cross-legged with his hands held loosely in his lap. Behind them, centered, is a depiction of the planet Mars against a star-filled space with a plume of glowing gases passing horizontally through the center. Some element of each person's clothing blends in with the red hues of the planet. Watermark of "Storyfeather" along lower leg pants of the man.

Men are facing many problems: 80% of suicides in this country are men, 1 in 5 struggle with severe loneliness, marriage rates for men 35 and older have dropped from 90% to under 60% — and the list goes on. We can feel it, but we struggle to name what is really causing all of this. You cannot beat an enemy you cannot name. So in this episode, we name four of them. Today we explore the answers to these questions — and how to avoid the answers the world wants to give you. We get into four specific threats and four very concrete responses, what it actually means for a man to consecrate himself to our Blessed Mother, and why spending time with the Love of the universe changes everything.

In this episode of the Integral Yoga Podcast (Ep. 152), we sit down with master percussionist and sound healer Arjun Bruggeman. Known extensively for his decades of touring and playing the tabla alongside kirtan wallah Krishna Das, Arjun shares his profound evolutionary journey from a young punk-rock-loving drummer to a devotional musician and sound journey guide.Arjun opens up about his early life, the hilarious story of how he got his first drum kit, and his first chaotic introduction to the world of kirtan. He dives deep into what happens internally while anchoring a room full of chanters, sharing incredible transcendent experiences of devotion and the feeling of complete stillness on stage.We also explore his shift during the pandemic toward his solo "Sound Journey" work—inspired by the etheric nature of the Northern Lights—and how he uses meditation and ambient percussion to help others drop out of the mind and into the "sensation arts" of the body.

Join Jim and Greg for the Wednesday 3 Martini Lunch as they discuss the recent testimonies of U.S. Supreme Court justices over threats they face, Maine Democrats racing to find a replacement nominee for Graham Platner, DEI policy's reverse discrimination effects, and a new congressional bill requiring lawmakers to disclose extended absences to the public.First, Jim and Greg react to SCOTUS Justices Amy Coney Barrett and Elena Kagan testifying in Congress and raising concerns over their security. Barrett had to wear a bulletproof vest after the decision to reverse Roe v. Wade was leaked and her family was targeted in a swatting attempt. Jim argues that conservative justices are particularly targeted in acts carried out by radicals on the left.Next, they cover the scramble by Maine Democrats to find a Senate nominee to run against Sen. Susan Collins. On July 25, 601 Democrats will vote for potential candidates. And the whole process must be over a week from Saturday. Jim and Greg explain how this process is pathetic.Then, Jim and Greg blast the obvious discrimination effects from DEI policy, affecting whites and Asian Americans, as well as blacks and Hispanics. They point to yesterday's testimony from Inez Stepman of Independent Women (and a frequent 3 Martini Lunch guest host, who said we should “judge by merit, not by immutable characteristics.”Finally, they address New York Rep. Ritchie Torres's proposed Duty of Transparency Act, which would mandate Congress members “to give constituents timely notice of an extended absence from voting.” In light of prolonged absences for members of Congress who failed to adequately disclose reasons for their absences, Jim and Greg say this bill is headed in the right direction. Please visit our great sponsors:QuoMoney is on the line.

Nomz opens up about facing her abuser in court, living with panic attacks behind the scenes, and what it really means to be labeled “strong” when all you want is permission to fall apart. We also explore trauma recovery, dissociation, victim blaming, spiritual abuse, and the deep emotional impact of being forced to rebuild your identity after years of manipulation and control.Nomz shares how she began questioning everything she had been taught, why anger can be an essential part of healing, and how reclaiming her voice has led her toward music, advocacy, and a new life on her own terms. Her message is a powerful reminder to trust your inner knowing, keep asking questions, and stop outsourcing your power to people or systems that do not feel right.

More teenagers are turning to AI chatbots for friendship advice, family conflict, and even romantic conversations. But what happens when artificial relationships begin replacing real ones? In this episode of Facing the Dark, Wayne and Dr. Kathy explore why God designed adolescents to learn conflict, empathy, forgiveness, and resilience through real people, not perfectly agreeable machines. Together, they unpack why AI can never satisfy our deepest relational needs and how parents can prepare children to use technology wisely without sacrificing the relationships that shape character.
