Marshall and Danielle revisit her concept of the "authenticity gap": the growing mismatch between our expectations and lived reality, and its defining role in America's turn to populism, why technocratic campaigning and politics crowds out meaning, culture, and first-order questions, why effective storytelling is a critical candidate and movement skillset, and why the next phase of left-liberal politics will require fusion between feuding camps, not factional warfare.

Nick Reiner used heroin. He used meth. He used cocaine. He went to rehab eighteen times starting at age fifteen. Every intervention focused on the drugs.But according to reports, Nick had schizophrenia — a serious psychotic disorder that went undiagnosed for years while he was being treated for addiction.What if the drugs were never the real problem?Psychotherapist Shavaun Scott joins True Crime Today to examine the relationship between schizophrenia and substance abuse. She explains a concept called self-medication — the idea that people with untreated mental illness sometimes use drugs to manage symptoms they don't understand. The heroin quiets the voices. The meth provides energy when depression makes it impossible to move. The substances aren't the disease. They're the patient's attempt at a cure.Shavaun breaks down how psychotic disorders get missed in teenagers who are using drugs, why the treatment industry often focuses on the visible problem while missing what's underneath, and what happens when you put someone with schizophrenia through traditional addiction treatment.We also examine what happened in the weeks before the killings. Nick's medication was reportedly changed. Sources say he became "erratic and dangerous." Shavaun explains what psychiatric destabilization actually looks like, the risks of medication adjustments, and why this period should have been managed with extreme caution.The Reiners paid for the best treatment money could buy. It may have been treating the wrong disease entirely.#NickReiner #Schizophrenia #ShavaunScott #TrueCrimeToday #MentalHealth #DualDiagnosis #RobReiner #Addiction #SelfMedication #TrueCrimeJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISDOES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Our personal lives and professional lives. Two areas typically kept completely separate, never to see one another.In reality, who we are, what we've been through and what we “do” for a living are all inextricably linked. Failure informs what we do in the future.

Gov. Greg Abbott said Tuesday that Dallas leaders were responsible for AT&T's decision to relocate its headquarters from downtown Dallas to Plano, blaming what he called the city's failure to fully fund and staff its police department. In other news, a Texas A&M professor has been told not to teach certain writings from Plato, a staple in introductory philosophy courses, because they may violate the university system's new rules against “advocating” race or gender ideology, or topics concerning sexual orientation, in core classes; a shooting in northwest Dallas last week that left one woman dead and injured her husband stemmed from a dating app meetup; and Salad and Go will close all remaining locations in Texas and Oklahoma, which includes the 25 locations still operating in North Texas and the seven in Oklahoma.

A viral investigation out of Minnesota has reopened a question every American should be asking: if taxpayer-funded programs can be exploited on this scale in one metro area, how much fraud, waste, and abuse is happening in cities and suburbs across the country? In this episode of The P.A.S. Report Podcast, Professor Nick Giordano breaks down what YouTuber Nick Shirley exposed, why the legacy media missed it, and how the federal-to-state funding pipeline creates the perfect environment for corruption, negligence, and taxpayer theft. Who was supposed to be watching, what warnings were ignored, and what reforms can actually stop the theft of our hard earned tax dollars? Plus, this ties directly into the New Contract With America series now posted on the website.   Episode Highlights Nick Shirley vs. legacy media: how a camera and a car did what billion-dollar newsrooms would not The federal money pipeline: why Washington-to-state funding makes fraud easier to hide and harder to stop Oversight or theater: the accountability questions that must be answered and what reforms would shut the door on fraud and taxpayer theft  

Jury selection began today in one of the most consequential police accountability trials in American history. Former Uvalde school police officer Adrian Gonzales is facing 29 felony counts of child endangerment for his response to the Robb Elementary School shooting that killed 19 children and two teachers on May 24, 2022.What makes this case unprecedented: Gonzales was the first law enforcement officer to arrive at Robb Elementary — before the shooter even entered the building. A coach on scene told investigators she pointed toward the gunman and begged Gonzales to stop him. According to CNN's timeline, he had 59 seconds before the shooter walked into the school. He had been through multiple active shooter trainings and had even taught a course titled "Stop the Killing: Solo Response" just two months earlier.According to his own statements to investigators, he never saw the shooter, never fired, and after briefly entering the hallway, stepped outside and "never went back." For 77 minutes, 376 officers from multiple agencies waited while a gunman remained in the classroom. Inside, 10-year-old Khloie Torres called 911 for 46 minutes begging for help.This is the first time a Texas officer has been prosecuted under this child endangerment statute for alleged inaction during a school shooting. The only comparable case — Parkland resource officer Scot Peterson — ended in acquittal in 2023.Gonzales has pleaded not guilty. His defense says he helped evacuate children. The families say he's a coward. Today, a jury begins deciding whether failure to act is a crime.#UvaldeTrial #AdrianGonzales #RobbElementary #TrueCrimeToday #BreakingNews #Uvalde #SchoolShooting #TexasTrial #Justice #PoliceTrialJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISDOES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

EPISODE 425. In this episode of Fit Friends Happy Hour, host Katie delves into the pitfalls of the 'New Year, New You' mentality often promoted in January. Statistics show that most diets and gym memberships started in January fail within months. Katie advocates for systems over shame-based motivations, emphasizing sustainable habits and routines. She introduces three essential systems for busy individuals: a food system that supports energy, a movement system that fits various life stages, and an emotional and mental reset system. Katie underscores that you don't need to reinvent yourself; you need better support systems to thrive.00:00 Introduction: The January Diet Craze00:52 The Failure of Diets and Resolutions02:28 The Emotional Drivers Behind Dieting02:53 Systems Over Shame: A Sustainable Approach04:21 Welcome to Fit Friends Happy Hour05:08 The Power of Systems: Insights from James Clear08:33 Three Essential Systems for 202613:20 Client Success Stories and Final Advice14:06 Conclusion and Encouragement15:09 Outro: Stay Connected with Fit Friends Happy HourConnect with Katie:Work with Us | www.katiehake.com/nutritioncoachingTake the Energy Quiz | www.katiehake.com/energyquizMeal Prep Like a Pro Without Obsessing Over Every Bite | www.katiehake.com/prepJoin our FREE 5-Day Walking Challenge | Walk with Me!Use special link for 15% off | Omorpho Weighted Vest Text me your AHA moment from today's episode!

Banks love to claim they are high-tech and high-touch. The truth is, most are neither, and the gap between what institutions promise and what customers experience is widening fast. It is costing banks billions in lost trust, slower growth, and missed opportunities, especially as expectations accelerate across the rest of people's financial lives. At Fintech NerdCon in Miami, I sat down with two leaders who are actually closing that gap. Siya Vansia, Chief Brand and Innovation Officer at ConnectOne Bank, and Suzan Chaffin, EVP of Solutions at LoanPro, are showing what modern banking looks like when technology, culture, and leadership come together with clarity and purpose. Our Banking Transformed conversation dives into the real work behind transformation. Not the marketing language, but the decisions, processes, and organizational alignment needed to deliver both speed and empathy. These leaders expose why retrofitting new technology onto old processes always fails, and how banks can rebuild for a future where high-tech and high-touch finally work together. If your institution is trying to modernize, improve experience, or break free from legacy constraints, this discussion offers a practical look at what it takes to move faster and deliver better value today.

This episode originally aired February 25, 2025 Kenya Barris, the creator of "Black-ish", knows a thing or two about resilience. Eighteen failed pilots before he finally struck gold? That's dedication — and, as it turns out, a family value. I’d always been drawn to Kenya’s humor and storytelling, but during our conversation it really clicked how much his experience as a father — and, as he openly shared, navigating divorce — informs his work. We delve into the intricacies of comedic structure, the tightrope walk that is satire for Black creators, and the moral considerations of challenging the status quo. Plus, we reflect on our time on set together. I'm a huge fan of Kenya's, and if you aren’t already, I have a feeling you will be soon. Follow me on Instagram at @davidduchovny.

Happy New Year! And welcome back to another episode of Money Files. This is the ​last ​episode ​of the ​debt ​identity ​series ​and ​I ​am ​going ​to ​be ​talking ​to ​you ​about ​survival ​debt. The kind of debt that shows up after a divorce, a medical issue, a job loss, a major income shift, or a season you could not have planned for. Survival debt does not come from overspending or poor discipline. It comes from life happening faster than your savings could keep up, and it may be flavored with ​a ​little ​bit ​of the ​multiple ​types ​of ​debt that we've discussed in this series. ​When you understand why the debt exists, you stop treating it like a personal failure and start managing it with clarity instead of shame. Join me as I walk you through how survival debt often gets misclassified as a spending problem, how fake math shows up when emotions are high, and why paying off debt aggressively without changing the story usually leads to burnout and repeat cycles.If you have ever felt shame by debt that came from trying to survive a hard season, this episode will help you breathe again and move forward without self punishment.Episode Highlights:[01:47] Why naming your debt matters[02:10] What survival debt actually is[05:00] Life events that create survival debt[08:45] When debt becomes a story about who you are[11:30] How fake math shows up after hard seasons[14:20] Why rushing payoff plans lead to burnout[16:50] Renaming debt to reclaim control[19:40] Five questions to neutralize survival debtWhat did ​this ​debt ​allow ​me ​to ​survive ​or ​protect?What ​story ​am ​I ​telling ​myself ​about ​what ​this ​debt ​means?How ​would ​I ​view ​this ​debt ​if ​it ​belonged ​to ​someone ​I love?What ​would ​neutralizing ​this ​debt ​emotionally ​look ​like ​for me?What would ​change ​if ​this ​debt ​wasn't ​treated ​as ​a ​personal ​failure?[23:00] Choosing a calmer path forwardTune into this episode of Money Files to learn how naming survival debt helps you release shame, stop fake math, and build a sustainable plan rooted in clarity and self trust.Get full show notes and the episode transcript: https://wealthovernow.com/debt-identity-series-understanding-survival-debt-why-your-debt-is-not-a-personal-failure/Links mentioned in this episode…Set up a call | Financial Coach Washington, DC | Wealth Over NowDownload my FREE spending plan

This is our annual, highest downloaded property market predictions episode — and it's one our clients wait for every year.   In 2025, our model was virtually 100% spot on. More importantly, for the last six years we've been sharing this framework privately, behind the scenes with our clients, to help them position early and act ahead of the market.   For 2026, we're opening it up and sharing the full model with you — completely free of charge.   We start by reviewing the 2025 model: forecast vs actual, breaking down what played out exactly as expected and what that tells us about the current phase of the cycle. We then zoom out to the wider economy, including the growing wealth gap and why it matters more than most people realise.   From there, we walk through the Master The Market 2026 model, covering exactly what we believe will happen next across: Inflation Interest rates Mortgage rates Property prices Rents GDP   This episode is not about headlines or hype. It's about understanding where we are in the cycle, where the pressure points are building, and how 2026 is likely to reward those who position early — and punish those who wait.   If you want clarity, conviction, and a strategic view of the year ahead, this is one episode you should not miss.   Following this episode, Daniel is running a live, one-off webinar where he'll break down the Top 3 Deal Strategies for 2026.

My guest: Oz Pearlman is the greatest mentalist in the world. After leaving Wall Street to pursue his craft full-time, he's performed for Steven Spielberg's family, for Nobel laureates, and Fortune 500 CEOs. He ran a 2:23 marathon and holds the record for most laps around Central Park in a single day. With five kids and 250+ performances a year, Oz has mastered the art of reading people and understanding what separates good from world-class. Key Learnings (In Oz's words) Doug Anderson is the magician who got me into magic. When I was 13 years old, I went on a cruise with my parents. I got pulled up on stage and took part in a magic trick. (The sponge balls)  After the trick, my dad and I started creating theories on how the trick worked.  The people in every industry who make it to the top are the ones who are kind and respectful to others. As soon as you stop thinking that you can learn from others, you start dying.  What is the recipe for success? It's getting through the tough times. When I walked up to someone at a restaurant, and I'm 14, and I have a very fragile ego, after three tables in a row at differing levels of rudeness go by, "Dude, get outta here, man. Like, I don't wanna see this," it hurts. That's a painful thing to experience. I had to learn a defense mechanism very quickly because carrying that pain, pain turns into anger. When I get to the next table, I'm angry at the next group, even though they haven't done anything wrong to me. I realized to get my goal, I needed tougher, thicker skin. Deflect the rejection onto someone else.  Create separation between you and rejection. I created what I would call an agent in my own mind. When you're in showbiz, the conversations you don't wanna have, your agent has for you. I'm a 14-year-old doing restaurants. I don't have an agent, so here's what I decided. When they don't like me, they don't know me. They don't know Oz Pearlman. They know this guy Oz the magician, who walked up to them. Maybe my tricks aren't good enough. Maybe my approach wasn't good enough. Maybe they had a bad day at work or their kid's sick. I made it less about me, and I was able to deflect all of that pain and hurt to this other person. The fear of rejection is worse than the rejection itself. Once you experience rejection a few times, it's not that bad. It's like dating. It's a numbers game. You'll probably not meet your spouse on the first try. You gotta meet a whole lot of other people to realize what you like best in the person that hopefully ends up spending your life with. "Never let someone else be in charge of your destiny." When I do a gig, I don't wait for someone to go, "Oh man, that'd be great. Let me get your business card." I go, "Amazing. Let me get your number and your info. I'll have someone from my team call you." My team is you, me, myself, and I. There's no team. But it sounds fancier. Fake it till you make it. Branding is so important. When I went on America's Got Talent, I made a conscious decision to separate myself from the guy from the year before. (Matt Franco) He won. I thought we were too similar. I had to do something unique or do something better than anyone else. That's when I branded myself as a mentalist and not a magician.  Mentalism is much harder than magic to practice. Magic can be practiced in front of a mirror until you get almost perfect at a trick. Mentalism is near impossible to practice at home without an audience. It's like comedy. You can't tell jokes to a mirror and find out if they're funny. You need the audience to do it. Charm takes the sting out of so many things in life. It allows you to win people over quickly. What is charm? Just the ability to smile, to make someone laugh, to be vulnerable in a certain moment. That's a skill that's developed, and if you study it well, you can develop it quicker because everyone thinks it's natural. What I've learned from comedians:  It's the purest form of entertainment that exists. You, the audience, and a microphone. I think you start to get a feel for timing. Where to pause, what's funny, how to get people on your side. With a heckler, there's a very fine line between punching down and offending your audience versus having them on your side and laughing with you at someone as opposed to laughing at someone.  I'm a slightly more exaggerated version of myself when performing. The volume is turned up a little. The charisma is turned up a little, the ability to joke around, but it's me. I think that resonates. Walking into a room smiling, having no hesitation, connecting with somebody, remembering their name, giving them a compliment. Such easy, low-hanging fruit, separates you from 90% of other people if you can do them consistently and effectively and genuinely. "That's why he's Steven Spielberg." The Steven Spielberg lesson changed how I see success. I did Spielberg's dad's 99th birthday. At the end of it, Steven beelines to me and I'm ready. I thought I'd get 30 seconds. He talked to me for upwards of 20 minutes. He just asked question after question after question. When I left it was like a blur. I didn't ask Steven Spielberg a single question about Jaws, Close Encounters. I had all these things I wanted to ask him. I'm like, man, I totally screwed that up. But over time, the lesson got through to me. It wasn't about me. It wasn't what I was gonna ask him. It was about him. It was learning what makes him tick. No matter who you become, if you can make the other person feel like they're a star when they meet you, they will always remember that memory. Try to deflect. If people ask you questions, answer, but ask them something about themselves back that no one's asked them. Make them feel seen and heard. Make them feel like they are the star of your movie as well. Little things add up to big things over time. If you were to ask my kids what do I ingrain in them all the time? Gratitude and being polite. One of my secrets to success has always been being very polite. "Please, thank you. Always."  Write a thank-you note. When I was doing bar mitzvahs, birthday parties, I realized early on, when people are throwing a party, it's very stressful. The person hosting doesn't always have the greatest time. They're so worried about everyone else.  Create memorable moments. I would take a selfie with the bar mitzvah kid. I found this online service where I could instantly upload the photo. I would always give a compliment that was specific. I'd send these cards to them on Monday. The parties are usually on Saturdays. It would get there Tuesday or Wednesday. To this day, 15 to 20 years later, I'll get emails when I'm on TV from people being like, "I just dug up this card from 17 years ago. You were at Benjamin's Bar Mitzvah, and now he's 30 and has a kid of his own." Takes notes | Write everything down.  In today's day and age, there's a power in the human touch that still exists. Take notes, write stuff down. I'll leave a gig, I'll write some stuff down, I'll remember it. If I run into that person again in a month, in a year, in five years, I can literally look at my phone. It's literally like a mentalism trick to reveal that information to people even though they gave it to you already, because it shows you took the time. Some of the biggest things I've ever landed backtrack to small moments. ESPN, the thing that brought us together can backtrack to a Bar Mitzvah 18 years ago where I first met Adam Schefter. The first seed was planted, and I had to keep watering it, watering it, watering it. Small plant, small plant, until it grew into this thing. Now look at all the things that came from all the things I've done with ESPN, where Adam Schefter originated them.  You are interviewing for your next job every single day. You have no idea who might be in the audience. You have no idea, but you give it your all every single time. One time, Adam Schefter was in the audience. Intelligent people are often the easiest to fool. When intelligent people watch what I do, they're confident in their ability to figure it out. They think they're smarter than the average person, so they start looking for solutions. But that overconfidence creates blind spots. They're so focused on being right about how they think it's done that they miss what's actually happening. The more you think you know, the more vulnerable you become to being fooled because you're operating from assumptions rather than staying open to all possibilities. Reflection Questions Oz created an "agent in his mind" to deflect rejection away from his core self, making it about "Oz the magician" rather than Oz the person. What mental separation could you create to handle rejection or criticism more effectively in your professional life? Oz emphasizes that intelligent people are often the easiest to fool because they're confident in their ability to figure things out. In what areas of your life or work might overconfidence be blinding you to what's actually happening? Oz sends handwritten notes with specific compliments and a selfie to everyone he performs for.  What's one relationship in your network right now that could be strengthened with this level of intentional follow-up, and what specific compliment could you give that person?

Summary This episode revisits one of the most helpful and down-to-earth conversations on the Messy Family Podcast: Family Board Meeting 2.0. It starts with a simple but challenging idea. We put a lot of thought into our jobs, but when it comes to family life, many of us are just trying to keep up. Between work, kids' schedules, and everyday stress, it's easy to drift into survival mode. A Family Board Meeting is a chance to pause, breathe, and get back on the same page. It's not about being perfect or fixing everything. It's about choosing to lead your family with intention. The episode walks through why these meetings matter, how to keep them practical, and how to avoid turning them into a blame-filled marathon. You'll hear encouragement to dream a little, pick a few priorities, write them down, and actually enjoy the process. Think unity, clarity, and maybe even dinner and a glass of wine along the way. Key Takeaways Intentional families don't happen by accident. A Family Board Meeting is about choosing the important over the merely urgent. The goal is unity, not perfection. Unity is essential for your children and for your own personal growth. Dream big, plan simple, act now. You can't do everything. That's okay. Choose the top two or three areas that really matter right now. Failure is part of the process—and that's normal.  Fail fast, refine, and keep moving forward. Make it human—and even fun.  You're building a life together, not just a to-do list.
