Psychologist and SuperPsyched host Dr. Adam Dorsay interviews novelist Andrew Davidson about Davidson's debut novel The Gargoyle and the role fiction can play in empathy and mental health. Davidson summarizes the book as a burn-ward patient approached by a woman who claims they were lovers 700 years ago, highlighting the tension between the narrator's atheism and Maryanne Engel's faith. He discusses his research-driven writing process, including firsthand outreach to a burn survivor, extensive historical sourcing, and deliberate choices balancing accuracy with emotional truth. Davidson explains cutting a much longer manuscript, securing representation from agent Eric Simonoff, and how the book's global publication—including translations and a reported $1.25 million advance—led to an overwhelming publicity tour that altered his relationship with writing. He describes later work in theater and ends by naming empathy as the key insight to improve society.00:00 Welcome to SuperPsyched00:26 Why Fiction Matters00:49 Introducing The Gargoyle02:28 Meet Andrew Davidson03:24 What The Book Is About06:44 Characters and The Author09:09 Researching Worlds and Trauma13:59 Accuracy vs Emotional Truth19:02 Trusting Intuition and Editing21:12 Loving the Writing Process22:26 Why Only One Novel24:39 Writing for Love25:40 Japan and The Gargoyle26:30 Fame and Touring Burnout29:11 Reset in Paris30:26 Theater and New Writing31:57 Writer Identity and Intrinsic Drive33:48 Landing a Top Agent36:07 Editing Down the Manuscript40:11 Luck Preparation and Gratitude42:35 Movie or Limited Series45:34 Winnipeg Theater Mission47:54 Empathy and FarewellHelpful Links:Andrew Davidson FacebookThe Gargoyle Book

Ray Romano built one of the biggest sitcoms of the 1990s, made hundreds of millions of dollars, and still somehow feels underrated. In this episode, we break down Ray Romano's stand-up roots, his rise to Everybody Loves Raymond, and why his legacy deserves more respect.In this episode of Why Are You Laughing?, we go back to Ray Romano's early struggles in stand-up comedy, when he was grinding it out in clubs long before network fame. We talk about how David Letterman played a major role in helping Everybody Loves Raymond get on the air, and how Romano's low-key delivery and relatable writing style separated him from flashier comedians of his era.We also dig into the parts of his career that don't get talked about enough. From the criminally underrated Men of a Certain Age, to working with Martin Scorsese on Vinyl and The Irishman, to his more recent independent film Somewhere in Queens, Romano's post-sitcom work shows range and depth that often gets overlooked.Was he overshadowed by shows like Seinfeld and Friends? Has his stand-up been underappreciated? And why does a comic this successful still feel like a “quiet legend” in comedy history?This is a full career deep dive into Ray Romano's stand-up, sitcom fame, and underrated legacy.0:00 Intro3:02 Family background7:25 Stand-Up comedy roots17:45 Newsradio firing24:01 David Letterman influence27:36 Everybody Loves Raymond36:19 Other work41:15 Martin Scorsese45:52 Netflix special50:34 Somewhere in Queens58:26 Norm MacdonaldFOR ALL THINGS BLIND MIKEhttp://blindmike.netFOR ALL THINGS CRAIGGERShttp://www.verygoodshow.orgFOR ALL THINGS HACKRIDEhttp://hackridethedemon.comFOR ALL THINGS DJ ELECTRA FRYhttp://djelectrafry.com

Shirley Temple became a household name before she was even a teenager, adored by millions while growing up in an industry that often had a dark and nefarious underbelly. Others, like Bug Hall, who played Alfalfa in The Little Rascals, have spoken about the darker realities behind child stardom and some of the positively wicked things that took place with him in the industry. And it doesn't stop with child actors. Even major Hollywood stars have spoken openly about the hidden cost of making it to the top. Actresses like Sharon Stone and Charlize Theron have described an industry where power and opportunity often intersect in uncomfortable and sometimes disturbing ways, including the long-discussed reality of the casting couch. In a post-MeToo and Harvey Weinstein era, but currently in the middle of the Epstein revelations, how do we safeguard those around us and reach those who have been taken advantage of or given in to the pressures of the industry?

The hosts of “Lifting, Running, and Living” welcome back Joy Parrish, a longtime podcaster and mental health therapist. After a brief discussion about Joy's recent donkey run, they dig into how to evaluate wellness/fitness figures when their names or associations surface in scandals, using Peter Attia's appearance in the Epstein files as context. Joy emphasizes ethics, “do no harm,” bystander responsibility, and accountability, critiques Attia's PR response, and explains why his medical background (including not being board certified) matters in public perception. The conversation broadens to locker-room talk, microaggressions, and ingroup/outgroup bias, then closes with how the hosts draw firmer lines with influencers and prioritize values and accountability over persona.00:00 IRL Pod Reunion01:28 Meet Joy Parrish05:57 Attia and Epstein Files19:14 PR Breakdown Takeaways25:00 Locker Room Talk Rant30:51 Microaggressions and Bystanders34:44 Waiting For The Facts38:06 Calm Confrontation Tactics40:25 Ingroup Bias And Identity42:48 Drawing Lines With Experts45:06 Influencer Worship And Grifts53:46 Fitness Claims And Vulnerability54:52 Manifestation Coaching Critique58:44 Tyra Banks And Accountability01:01:26 Closing Thoughts And Wrap UpFollow the pod at ⁠⁠⁠@liftingrunninglivingpod⁠⁠⁠Email us at ⁠⁠⁠liftingrunninglivingpod@gmail.com⁠⁠⁠Follow JK at ⁠⁠@coachjkmcleod⁠⁠Follow Kelly at ⁠⁠⁠@runningklutz ⁠

We always wonder what makes the difference. Why some people make it in Hollywood… and others don't. Is it talent? Timing? Luck? Or simply the moment when everything finally aligns? Before Gossip Girl, Kelly Rutherford went through years of auditions, doubts, and waiting. Then one role changed everything and came with a whole new set of challenges. In this episode of PAUSE, she looks back on that turning point. On what really makes a career break through. On what fame teaches you once you're there. And on the advice she would give to anyone still waiting for their moment.Hébergé par Ausha. Visitez ausha.co/politique-de-confidentialite pour plus d'informations.

A powerful conversation with Hilary Momberger-Powers on how unresolved trauma fuels overachievement and control, and how true empowerment comes from inner safety, self-responsibility, and transforming pain into purpose. 5 Key Takeaways Trauma isn't just what happened — it's how it shifted your internal “survival wiring.” Overachieving, people-pleasing, isolating, or controlling are all trauma responses. If you're always in a hurry, you may be operating from trauma — not alignment. True empowerment feels grounded, not frantic. Healing begins the moment you say, “I need help.” Exposing hidden fears and taking responsibility (without self-blame) is where real transformation starts. Confidence is rooted in safety, not control. When you stabilize your body, mind, and spirit, you stop reacting to the world and start leading from calm strength. Your pain can become your purpose. When you stop identifying as a victim and start asking, “What do I get to learn from this?” trauma becomes the very thing that empowers you to help others thrive.

It's Thursday, February 26th, A.D. 2026. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Jonathan Clark Russian-Ukrainian war in its fifth year The war between Russia and Ukraine entered its fifth year this week. International Christian Concern reports religious communities in the Russian-occupied areas of Ukraine continue to face harassment and violence. Protestant churches are especially targeted with intimidation, raids, and closures. The European Evangelical Alliance is calling on Christians to pray for their brothers and sisters caught in the conflict. The organization noted, “Churches continue to serve courageously. Acts of compassion and solidarity are widespread. Stories of protection, provision, and spiritual awakening remind believers that God remains present and active even in the darkest times.” Romans 8:28 reminds us, “We know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are the called according to His purpose.” 1.8 million casualties in Russian-Ukrainian war After four years of fighting, Russia and Ukraine have experienced an estimated 1.8 million casualties. That includes people killed, wounded, and missing.  U.S. President Donald Trump continues to broker peace talks between the two countries even as the war drags on.  Ukrainian representatives plan to meet with U.S. envoys in Geneva, Switzerland today. This is ahead of a potential trilateral meeting between the U.S., Russia, and Ukraine next week.  U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio recently wrote on X, “President Trump wants a solution that ends the bloodshed once and for all.” European Commission fines X $140 million Speaking of X, the company is challenging a $140 million fine imposed by the European Commission.  The commission is using the European Union's Digital Services Act to impose censorship on American tech companies. Jeremy Tedesco with Alliance Defending Freedom stated, “The platforms the Digital Services Act targets … are the modern public square. They are where Americans debate politics, share their faith, and hold the powerful accountable. … The EU Commission is targeting X for a simple reason: X is committed to free speech, and the Commission demands censorship.” El Mencho's Mexican cartel extorted and harassed pastors As The Worldview reported on Tuesday, Mexico's military forces killed the drug cartel leader, Nemesio Cervantes,  known as “El Mencho” on Sunday. He was the most wanted person in Mexico and one of the most wanted people in the United States.  The cartel he led was known for terrorizing not only businesses but also church leaders in Mexico. Pastors faced intimidation, extortion, harassment, and threats at the hands of the cartel.  Trump affirmed “one nation under God” In the United States, President Donald Trump delivered his 2026 State of the Union Address to a joint session of Congress on Tuesday.  The speech lasted for an hour and 48 minutes, the longest State of the Union Address in modern tracking.  At one point, he asked a question. TRUMP: “One of the great things about the State of the Union is how it gives Americans the chance to see clearly what their representatives really believe. So tonight, I'm inviting every legislator to join with my administration in reaffirming a fundamental principle. “If you agree with this statement, then stand up and show your support. ‘The first duty of the American government is to protect American citizens, not illegal aliens.'” (Republicans applauded) Not surprisingly, all the Republicans stood and all the Democrats remained seated, revealing the stark contrast between the two major parties. Throughout his speech, the president mentioned the upcoming 250th anniversary of the founding of the United States. He acknowledged the hand of Providence in our country's destiny and celebrated recent renewal in religious interest among young people. Listen. TRUMP: “I'm very proud to say that during my time in office, both the first four years, and in particular this last year, there has been a tremendous renewal in religion, faith, Christianity and belief in God. “This is especially true among young people, and a big part of that had to do with my great friend, Charlie Kirk, a great guy, a great man.” (You can watch the State of the Union here.) Singer Johnny Cash remembered for faith in Christ And finally, today marks the birthday of Johnny Cash. The iconic American singer was born on February 26, 1932.  He rose to fame in the music scene in the 1950s before coming to Christ later in the 1970s. He became known as the “Man in Black” for his all-black stage suits.  After his conversion, Cash would use his music to share the Gospel, often performing at Billy Graham Crusades.  Cash remains one the best-selling music artists of all time. He was inducted into the Country Music, Rock and Roll, and Gospel Music Halls of Fame.  One of his last recorded songs was called “I Came to Believe.” Listen to the chorus. “I came to believe in a Power much higher than I. I came to believe that I needed help to get by. In childlike faith, I gave in and gave Him a try. And I came to believe in a Power much higher than I.” Proverbs 3:5-6 says, “Trust in the LORD with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct your paths.” Pick up a copy of Greg Laurie's biography entitled, Johnny Cash: The Redemption of an American Icon.  And watch the Christian movie by the same name.  Close And that's The Worldview on this Thursday, February 26th, in the year of our Lord 2026. Follow us on X or subscribe for free by Spotify, Amazon Music, or by iTunes or email to our unique Christian newscast at www.TheWorldview.com.  Plus, you can get the Generations app through Google Play or The App Store.

This week, I sat down with one of my favorite humans and one of the smartest creators on the internet — my friend Cat Goetze (@askcatgpt). We talked about what it really takes to turn creativity into a scalable business, how to stop waiting for permission, and why “climbing Cringe Mountain” might just be your next rite of passage as a creator. Cat shared her journey from Stanford to Silicon Valley to full-time creator and founder — and the wild story behind launching Physical Phones, her viral hardware startup turned creator-powered case study. She opened up about the tension between being “the talent” and “the boss,” the masculine/feminine energy dance of running a company while staying in flow, and how she's redefining entrepreneurship through CAT Labs, her newest venture building products and creative experiments at the intersection of art and tech. We also got real about leadership, letting go of control, and how good-hearted people claiming the resource of fame is one of the most radical things we can do right now. This one's equal parts business masterclass, creator therapy session, and cosmic pep talk for anyone who's ready to create their own lane instead of waiting to be picked. Connect with us!

Psalm 26:1-12, Exodus 39:1-40:38, Mark 9:2-32. Perhaps it is not surprising that as society moves away from worshipping *the glory of God*, it turns towards the worship of the ‘glory' of celebrity and fame We are called to worship God's glory and reflect it, however imperfectly, in our lives

Reed and Brighton Robertson join Sadie in the studio for an honest conversation about marriage, parenting, disappointment, and faith. Brighton shares how bitterness crept in after becoming a stay-at-home mom—and how she learned to fight resentment and let God transform her perspective. Reed opens up about dreams that didn't work out in Nashville and how he now sees God's faithfulness in every twist and turn. Through loss, hard questions, and deep dives into Scripture, their faith grew stronger—and more personal—than ever.

From the beginning of Galileo's career, well before the publication of the Sidereus Nuncius, his contemporaries took pains to shape his reputation and fame. They were fully aware that their efforts would shape the course of his career; they also knew that they would profit from helping him. With Galileo's Fame: Science, Credibility, and Memory in the Seventeenth Century (U Pittsburgh Press, 2025), Anna-Luna Post offers a welcome new perspective on the volatile dynamic between early modern fame and science in Italy, shifting the focus from the recipient of fame to its brokers. Galileo's contemporaries knew his rise to fame was not a matter of course. Not only were his discoveries highly contested, he also was not the first to observe Jupiter's four largest moons. Yet, of the three men who did so between the summer of 1609 and the winter of 1610, Galileo is the only one who achieved both widespread fame and posthumous glory. Post convincingly argues that fame is, rather than the direct result of merit or extraordinary achievements, shaped through human intervention. Freddy Domínguez is a Historian or early modern European history at the University of Arkansas-Fayetteville. He is the author of Radicals in Exile (2020), Bob Dylan in the Attic (2022), and Luisa de Carvajal y Mendoza (2025).

Galileo's contemporaries knew his rise to fame was not a matter of course. Not only were his discoveries highly contested, he also was not the first to observe Jupiter's four largest moons. Yet, of the three men who did so between the summer of 1609 and the winter of 1610, Galileo is the only one who achieved both widespread fame and posthumous glory. Post convincingly argues that fame is, rather than the direct result of merit or extraordinary achievements, shaped through human intervention.

John X hosts the third episode of “Born In Trouble” with guests Robert Brooks (in-studio) and Andrew Johnson (host of the Men Money and Marriage Podcast). The conversation ranges from reactions to a Spanish-language halftime performance and public discomfort with other cultures, to concerns that the U.S. is increasingly divided and “full of” contradictions. They discuss faith and the idea that there is only one God/Jesus, argue that protecting vulnerable children is a moral imperative, and condemn pedophilia while criticizing how high-profile cases and trials are drip-fed to distract the public. They talk about Jeffrey Epstein, Ghislaine Maxwell's alleged intelligence ties, and claim Epstein did not want Black people on the island, framing it as “white on white crime,” while cautioning against pulling Black people in as scapegoats. They revisit Michael Jackson, suggesting allegations were tied to power and music publishing, describing how he amassed catalogs (including the Beatles and Sony-related publishing) and used leverage in the industry, including returning Little Richard's rights. The episode also covers immigration and business incentives to exploit undocumented labor, including avoiding taxes/benefits, and connects this to broader U.S. history and Manifest Destiny, arguing people are “coming back” to land taken from Mexico. They speculate about hidden history, restricted sites like parts of the Grand Canyon, and debates over identity, criticizing tribalism and the use of slurs within communities. Andrew shares concerns about his daughter's future, rising costs, and the increasing age of first-time homebuyers; they discuss 50-year mortgages as “glorified renting” and how lack of equity could discourage divorce. They debate AI's impact on jobs, suggesting timelines are exaggerated but warning about motives, and they argue screen-based schooling and phone dependence reduce creativity and critical thinking in Gen Z. They briefly mention hypocrisy around anti-LGBTQ rhetoric (including Grindr spikes during Republican conventions) and insist people should be judged by character rather than group identity. The episode closes with a warning about scapegoating, references to “ghetto loans” from mortgage work, commentary on hypocrisy in politics and culture, and a sign-off framing the episode as “Devil Worshipers,” with plans for future episodes and a possible one-on-one with Grant Lancaster. 00:00 Cold Open and Guests 01:02 Valentine's Day Banter 02:49 Welcome to Born In Trouble 03:40 Super Bowl Halftime Debate 05:47 Do We Stand for Anything 06:19 Faith and Protecting Kids 08:40 Immigration and Business Incentives 10:57 Division and Distraction Politics 12:35 Michael Jackson Revisited 15:02 Publishing Power and Catalog Wars 18:06 Epstein Network and Race 23:01 Manifest Destiny and Hidden History 25:34 Identity Tribalism and Language 28:55 When Did It Get So Tribal 29:16 Tribal Cities Talk 31:18 Parenting and Housing Fears 32:25 Looking Rich Economy 33:22 Fifty Year Mortgages 36:16 Aging Out the Demo 37:32 AI Jobs Reality Check 42:02 Screen Age Kids 45:05 Tribalism and Community 49:19 LGBTQ and Hypocrisy 54:17 Closing Thoughts and Signoff

In some communities, everyone regularly uses two languages or varieties according to the social situation, with one of them being more prestigious (and more likely to be written down) than the other. This particular kind of multilingualism is known as a diglossia. In this episode, your hosts Gretchen McCulloch and Lauren Gawne get enthusiastic about diglossia! We talk about why diglossia is the answer to so many questions Gretchen gets asked at parties, what "high" and "low" versions of a language have to do with mountains, where the four "classic" cases of diglossia come from (Arabic, Greek, Haitian, and Swiss), and how at least some of them might not be diglossias anymore. We also talk about whether there are new diglossias emerging (French? English???) and how to tell if you might be in a diglossia.

But Michael Greco's story is about far more than the roles that made him famous.In this raw and honest conversation, Michael sits down with Glenn Marsden to pull back the curtain on the journey behind the success — the early struggles, the defining moments, the highs and lows of life in the spotlight, and the resilience it takes to keep going when the cameras aren't rolling.This is the side of fame you don't usually get to see. The grit. The growth. The truth.Don't miss it.

Mike Pesca wrote a fine piece for the Free Press on how oddly not controversial the supposedly very controversial Eileen Gu is. She's from the United States, but competes for China, and yet receives…mostly glowing mainstream American coverage? What's with that? And beyond Gu, what's the elite American consensus on China? But before the topics are introduced…Per the new Substack/Polymarket partnership, I'm posting an Eileen Gu involved competition. As someone incapable of accurately pricing Winter Olympics events, I'm interested in whether bettors reflect Gu's true odds for winning the Ski Halfpipe. As of this writing, Polymarket has her favored to triumph. Fame halo effect, or accurate probability? And onto the Pesca pod topics…* Would we bet that Chuck Klosterman has a secret North Dakota accent?* Eileen Gu is certainly beautiful, but does she also look a little terrifying? * Is the lack of elite anger towards China rooted in corporate considerations?* America is less patriotic now, especially among the young. Bad thing?* Is the United States the best country?* Per the Jeremy Carl congressional dustup, is there such a thing as White American culture? * Stuffwhitepeoplelike was a great website* Is there such a thing as a “white guy basketball assist”? * Is it plausible that Spike Lee's All-Star Game Palestine outfit had nothing to do with Deni Avdija?

Paul Gascoigne is one of the most gifted footballers Britain has ever produced. But behind the goals, the tears, and the headlines, who is the real man beneath the Gazza legend?In this raw and deeply moving conversation, Jake and Damian sit down with Paul in his home in Bournemouth for one of the most honest interviews he has ever given. From growing up in Gateshead and witnessing a childhood tragedy that would shape him forever, to becoming the most famous man in Britain overnight, Paul opens up about the price of fame, the battle with addiction, and why humour has always been both his greatest gift and his greatest shield.They talk about the moments that defined him - Italia 90, Euro 96, the tears, the goals, the missed chances - and the managers and teammates who believed in him when others had written him off. But more than football, this is a conversation about a man still standing. Still finding joy in the small things and the people around him who genuinely care.As Paul himself says, people know Paul. But very few people know Gazza, including himself.This conversation was recorded at Paul's house in 2024. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
