Have you talked to a parent recently? Are they...okay?From textbook bans to health food trends, there's a whole culture of fear and political propaganda that preys on new parents, convincing them that just buying this or just voting for that will keep their children safe. But how do you know if something is a moral panic or a legitimate concern?Brittany is joined by Karen Leick, author of Parents, Media and Panic through the Years, and Cynthia Wang, Clinical Professor of Management and Organizations at Northwestern University to sift through the differences.Follow Brittany Luse on Instagram: @bmluseFor handpicked podcast recommendations every week, subscribe to NPR's Pod Club newsletter at npr.org/podclub.Learn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy

The Purge by a Novel and Mao's Fear of Revisionism. Joseph Turigian explains that Xi Zhongxun's 1962 downfall stemmed from supporting the publication of a fictionalized biography of his deceased mentor, Liu Zhidan. Mao Zedong saw the novel as a counter-revolutionary plot and a manifestation of revisionism, fearing that others would claim credit for leading the revolution. Mao aimed to transform persecuted individuals through humiliation and torment, unlike Stalinist purges, which emphasized execution. Xi Zhongxun was brutally kidnapped by Red Guards in 1967 and subjected to struggle sessions as Mao sought to continuously "rebaptize" the party in revolutionary spirit.

David Clayton, known on Instagram as #officialempathytour, is running for North Carolina's 5th Congressional District in the 2026 elections. The district is currently represented by Virginia Foxx, a Republican who has held the seat since 2005. David Clayton is the antithesis of the cult of Trump. He believes in women's rights. As far as religion goes, he thinks everyone is free to believe in something or not believe in anything. He also believes that empathy is not a sin, but rather a necessary element of a functioning society, one in which people move away from the narrow confines and towards a more open, supportive, and accepting society. Fear-mongering online and on the news is its own form of coercive control. And, with the rise of Artificial Intelligence and social media conglomerates controlling so many people's minds and lives, we need to see change led by people like David Clayton, who will put people over profits and power. David is running as an Independent and promises to call out the legalized corruption that plagues our current political system. David spent several years of his life passing out survival gear to homeless veterans. He has also drafted proposed legislation to house homeless veterans. This proposed legislation is called the Character by Integrity Act. David is currently building a following among both Democrats and Republicans by speaking plainly and simply about what is happening in America today. Learn more about your ad choices.

View your mind like traffic that has nothing to do with you. Traffic that's on the other side of the road. The kind of traffic that makes you say, 'whooo! Glad I'm not going that way!" Don't get involved with it. You're not stuck in it. You're simply watching it.Every time a thought approaches, ask yourself, 'to whom does this thought come?' And pause... listen. The answer is the silence. The mind stops and leaves you in the remembrance, in the recognition that you were never out of Love... you weren't living in the outskirts of the Kingdom. YOU ARE THE KINGDOM. You're Home, in the City of God. And as long as you're feeling Love inside of you, you'll be consciously aware of Love manifest all around you... as you.I Love you,Niknikki@curlynikki.comSupport the show:▶▶https://www.patreon.com/goodmornings_________________________________Today's Quotes: "Complaint is only possible when you're living in the suburbs of God." - Daniel Ladinsky, 'The Gift: Poems by Hafiz, The Great Sufi Master"To whom does this thought come?" - Ramana Maharshi"See what you're doing now.

High performers often build from pressure instead of peace. In this episode, discover how faith reshapes ambition — and how to move from striving for success to building with divine partnership, just like Nehemiah.When high performance becomes the only way you know how to feel safe, surrender feels foreign. But the moment you stop striving to build something for God and begin building with Him — peace replaces pressure, and purpose finds its true form.In this Sunday episode of The Recalibration, Julie Holly explores what it means to trade ambition for alignment through the story of Nehemiah, who rebuilt Jerusalem not through hustle but through holy partnership. His leadership shows us the difference between the Tower — built to make a name — and the Temple — built to host Presence.This conversation speaks directly to high-capacity humans navigating success fatigue, spiritual exhaustion, and identity drift. It's a grounded, faith-forward invitation to trust that obedience is strategy — and that divine partnership isn't weakness, it's wisdom.You'll learn how to discern whether you're building from pressure or Presence, and what it looks like to lead from sufficiency rather than scarcity. Because the Sovereign never asked you to hold it all together — only to stay aligned with truth.The Recalibration isn't another mindset hack or leadership tactic. It's the root-level identity alignment that makes every other tool effective again — the small internal shift that changes how you build, lead, and live.Today's Micro Recalibration: In prayer or reflection, ask: “Am I building this for recognition or for relationship?” Let the answer come gently. Peace will always reveal what's pure.Semantic keyword clusters: burnout recovery, spiritual exhaustion, faith and performance, leadership burnout, identity drift, high performer faith, divine partnership, surrender and success, rebuilding with God, purpose realignment, presence over performance.Named entities: Nehemiah, Tower of Babel, Temple of GodIf this episode gave you language you've been missing, please rate and review the show so more high-capacity humans can find it.

Michael Rohatyn and Peter Yost, the creators of the acclaimed new documentary about Gotham's close brush with bankruptcy in 1975, Drop Dead City, discuss the film, the city that was, how its near collapse led to the city of today, and how Michael's father Felix helped pulled it back from the brink with Big MAC, or the Municipal Assistance Corporation.

In this episode, we dive deep into the growing conversation around melatonin—America's favorite over-the-counter sleep aid—and its rumored effects on heart health. As melatonin use rises, so do headlines suggesting it may influence cardiovascular function. But are these claims grounded in solid science, or are they simply fear-driven misunderstandings?We explore both sides: studies suggesting melatonin may offer protective benefits under certain conditions, and reports raising concerns about long-term high-dose use, inconsistent supplement quality, and possible interactions with the heart. www.georgebatista.com

Kristen Kavanaugh is the author of Courage Over Fear and the founder of The Agency Initiative, working to connect people's work with meaning in alignment with their values. Previously, she was the vice chair of the Defense Advisory Committee on Diversity & Inclusion and the senior director of inclusion, talent & learning at Tesla. Here are my key takeaways: Values Dissonance Drives Talent Away: The conflict between personal values and the actions or culture of a company—especially at the leadership level—causes significant personal distress and ultimately leads to attrition. Kavanaugh described experiencing anxiety and physical symptoms, including panic attacks, that her body was trying to communicate to her before she left her role at Tesla. She emphasized that listening to those internal signals is crucial and that her health immediately improved once she made the decision to leave the toxic environment. For organizations, this highlights that failing to align with and uphold core values will physically and mentally harm employees, particularly those with less privilege, leading to the loss of valuable talent. Courageous Leadership and Psychological Safety are Key to DEI Success: DEI work thrives when leadership models courage and takes a clear stand on inclusion. Kavanaugh, who led the DEI team, noted that when the CEO began making public statements that were antithetical to the work they were doing, it caused deep pain and was the "start of the unravelling" of DEI at the company. This demonstrated that leadership's visible choice of "courage over fear"—especially by those with power and privilege (the "decision calculus" factor)—is necessary to foster a culture where all employees, particularly underrepresented groups, feel safe and valued enough to stay. Retention and Growth is Built on Small, Consistent Acts of Agency (The 5% Approach): The concept of the "Agency Loop" highlights that a healthy professional life is a cycle of authenticity, intentional decision-making, and growth. The key to starting and sustaining this cycle is the "5% more courageous approach," which breaks down intimidating acts of courage into small, manageable steps. For workplace retention, this means that cultural change and a sense of agency aren't just about massive, high-risk confrontations; they are built through everyday choices, such as a manager creating space for honest dialogue or an employee simply dressing in a way that feels authentic to them. These small, consistent actions compound over time to build resilience and a stronger, more authentic leader and employee. Follow Kristen at https://www.courageoverfearbook.com/.

Peace More Powerful Than Fear by First Pres Kingwood

Welcome to The Daily, where we study the Bible verse by verse, chapter by chapter, every day. Today's shout-out goes to Alan Klech from Henderson, TX. Your commitment through Project23 helps deliver God's Word daily with clarity and conviction. This one's for you. Our text today is Judges 13:1 And the people of Israel again did what was evil in the sight of the Lord, so the Lord gave them into the hand of the Philistines for forty years. — Judges 13:1 Here we go again. The cycle repeats: Israel turns from God, God hands them over, and they taste the bitter fruit of sin. This time, the oppressors are the Philistines, and their domination lasts 40 years—longer than any other oppression in Judges. It's a sobering reminder that God allows His people to feel the weight of their choices. He won't compete with idols forever. When His people abandon Him, He removes His protection and allows them to experience bondage, not because He hates them—but because discipline can do what comfort cannot. Sin always promises freedom but delivers slavery. What feels harmless at first—just a click, just a drink, just a word—soon grows into something that controls you. What begins as pleasure becomes a prison. This is where we have to consider our own lives. Maybe it's anger that erupts too easily. Maybe it's that private struggle with lust you keep telling yourself you can manage. Maybe it's the habit of chasing approval or numbing pain with distraction. Whatever it is, you already know the truth: what you thought you controlled is now controlling you. Let's not be a community that rationalizes with sin—it will always enslave you. And God loves you too much to let you live comfortably in sin. He will let you feel its chains until you finally turn back to Him. The issue isn't whether sin will enslave you—it's how long you'll stay chained before you let God set you free. ASK THIS: What sin patterns keep pulling me back into bondage? Where am I mistaking temporary pleasure for real freedom? Am I learning from discipline—or ignoring God's warnings? DO THIS: Name one area of your life where sin has become a cycle. Confess it to God today and, if needed, bring it into the light with a trusted believer. Freedom begins where sin is exposed. PRAY THIS: Father, forgive me for returning to the sins that enslave me. Break the chains I've built for myself, and teach me to walk in the freedom that only comes from You. Amen. PLAY THIS: "No Longer Slaves to Fear."

Bombshell allegations emerge that Queen Elizabeth knew Andrew brought prostitutes to Buckingham Palace for years but did nothing—as a Church of England vicar questions if she had a "blind spot" for her favorite son. Andrew spends his final Royal Lodge days "ranting to himself" while Sarah Ferguson drowns her fears in a purpose-built bar called The Doghouse, talking about "dark forces" targeting them. The disgraced royal must now bow to his own daughters and faces demands from Congress while making outrageous staffing demands before his Sandringham exile. Sarah reportedly considers selling Diana's private letters as a "secret weapon." Meanwhile, Poppygate erupts as Meghan attends a Kardashian party without a remembrance poppy while Harry wears one, sparking fury. William reveals Charles denied his request to scale back duties during "the hardest year" and feels betrayed by the Beckham knighthood timing that stole his Earthshot thunder. Plus: the floodgates open as palace staff come forward, Hollywood declares the Sussexes "hopeless," and Kate gets BBC name controversy at Remembrance service.Hear our new show "Crown and Controversy: Prince Andrew" here.Check out "Palace Intrigue Presents: King WIlliam" here.

Why Trust Breaks Down and What To Do About It In this episode, Marcus talks with Charles Green, one of the genuine heavyweights in the world of trust and commercial relationships. If you lead a mid market scaling tech firm and you suspect your sales or GTM function is underperforming for reasons no dashboard can explain, this conversation will feel uncomfortably accurate. Together they explore how fear, uncertainty, and internal pressure quietly poison performance. Forget the usual talk about activity ratios and pipeline hygiene. This is a candid look at the human drivers behind buyer reluctance, stalling, and ghosting, and why most attempts to “solve” these problems only make them worse. Charlie argues that instead of trying to measure trust, leaders should focus on spotting and removing the behaviours that actively destroy it. If you are grappling with the tension between short term targets and long term customer value, this episode will challenge how you think about leadership, incentives, and your culture. Key Takeaways for Scaling Founders, GTM Leaders and Sales People Trust is lived, not conceptual. It is emotional as much as rational. Charlie draws a clear distinction between thin, institutional trust and thick, personal trust. Trust is often built in moments. Reliability takes repetition, but intimacy is created quickly. How you pause, how you listen, and how you look at someone all matter more than your slide deck. Over promising is lying twice. One promise on the way in, one on the way out. It corrodes trust faster than anything. Fear drives most distrust. Buyers who feel uncertain catastrophise. That is what creates anticipatory buyer remorse and pipeline ghosting. The antidote is to name the fear out loud. Once spoken, it loses power. Repair beats perfection. A relationship that has been broken and then repaired well is often stronger than one that never faced a test. Repair requires vulnerability and accountability, not ego. The Trust Equation and Why Most Firms Focus on the Wrong Bits The Trust Equation helped popularise the components of trustworthiness. Most leaders obsess over credibility and reliability because they are convenient to measure. Charlie explains why they are nowhere near the strongest drivers. Intimacy. By far the biggest factor. It is about making the other person feel safe, understood, and genuinely heard. Nurses top trust rankings for a reason. Low Self Orientation. The second strongest factor. Hard to measure and impossible to bribe into existence. Fear drives self orientation. Freedom from fear frees you to focus on others. Scaling, Money, and the Uncomfortable Truth About Culture Charlie and Marcus tackle why trust based, customer centric selling so often collapses once a company grows beyond 100 or 200 people. Money permeates culture. Investors and boards often prioritise valuation over outcomes. This shifts intent and corrodes trust without anyone noticing. Ideology shapes behaviour. Modern management is built on economic beliefs that favour short term gains and things that are easy to measure. Mixed messages destroy conviction. Telling teams to “do the right thing” while driving absurd stretch targets creates confusion and cynicism. The Bill Green example. When the former Accenture CEO was challenged about incentives conflicting with doing the right thing, he told the room to do the right thing first, then fix the incentives later. That clarity changed the behaviour of forty senior leaders immediately. Practical Trust Based GTM Moves These are the actions Charles Green recommends leaders adopt straight away. Be transparent on price early. Withholding price to “build value” creates anxiety. Give a ballpark early to remove fear. Stop using discounts as currency. It destroys trust. Offer only standard, published discounts such as volume or non profit rates. Protect existing customers first. Expansion and net new wins come after that. Repeat business is far more profitable and far less stressful. Measure Time to Value, not NPS. Buyers rent an outcome. How quickly they reach it tells you more about your trustworthiness than a score. Build your trust muscle. Make many small promises and keep every one of them. It is astonishing how fast this compounds. Model the behaviour you want. Trust others first and show your workings. A simple line such as “I could be wrong, but it seems this is an issue. Is it?” creates space for honesty. Final Thoughts and What Happens Next Trust is built in tiny moments. Charlie encourages listeners to choose two or three insights, write them down, and let them settle into daily practice.

Fear in divorce is normal and understandable. But be careful not to let your fear influence your decisions. My guest in this episode is divorce attorney, Anthony Diaz, and we talk about fear, and how to cope and make the best divorce decisions.

In this Q & A we looked at Awakening in terms of Knowing vs believing and faith in context of the 23rd Psalm. How do we develop the deep trust experience by the lamb for the "Shepherd"? Then, we discussed the inner movements of Awakening based on one listener's practice of the "Awakening Meditation" and her unexpected experience in a crystal shop. Also, the experience of another listener with the surfacing of implicit foreboding holiday feelings and, happily, with Yogananda's reenergization exercises. Etc..This recording of a live Q & A has been edited for clarity, length, and helpfulness.These podcasts are here to support your personal path of awakening whatever that might be. I feel they are most powerful when listened to in sequence from podcast one forward because each is built on the last. Though they, also, all stand on their own. If anything does not resonate, please disregard it and follow your heart. All my podcasts and website are free. Enjoy!Though I am a psychotherapist, and these podcasts are offered to be spiritually helpful, they are not psychotherapy.

US Greenlights ROK Enrichment, Raising Proliferation Fears Guest: Henry Sokolski, Executive Director of the Non-Proliferation Policy Education Center The US agreement to support the Republic of South Korea's civil uranium enrichment and spent fuel reprocessing for peaceful uses is viewed by Sokolski as a movement toward proliferation. Sokolski notes that this decision greenlights the ROK—a treaty ally with a history of attempting to use its civil programs to make nuclear weapons—to a position similar to Iran's. The ROK successfully leveraged the inconsistency of US policy, pointing out that Japan has permission to enrich and reprocess fuel and possesses a massive plutonium stockpile. Granting the ROK these capabilities sets a concerning precedent, potentially compelling the US to allow other countries like Saudi Arabia to seek similar nuclear options. The proliferation concern is heightened further by the ROK's desire for a nuclear-powered submarine, which could lead to pursuit of a full nuclear weapons triad. 1958

MCTAGUE: LANCASTER COUNTY ECONOMY AND AI FEAR Guest: Jim McTague Reports from Lancaster County show a strong local economy: a metal forming company is "busy as they've ever been" and actively hiring, and the mall is packed with shoppers. Tourism is thriving, exemplified by sold-out shows at the Sight and Sound Theater. However, a persistent fear of AI-driven layoffs exists among retirees, despite no personal connection to the issue. Data centers supporting AI are rapidly being built in the area.

When police arrested Bryan Kohberger — the criminology Ph.D. student accused of murdering four University of Idaho students — they found a single book with underlining on page 118. Months later, reporting from the Idaho Statesman revealed that book was Feel the Fear and Do It Anyway by Susan Jeffers — a self-help classic about conquering fear through action. In this episode of Hidden Killers with Tony Brueski, we dig into what that detail really means. Was Kohberger simply reading a popular motivational book? Or was he absorbing a philosophy that, in his hands, took on something much darker? Tony breaks down how Jeffers' message — “The only way to get rid of the fear of doing something is to go out and do it” — could have resonated with Kohberger's obsessive need for control and dominance. Through psychological analysis and factual reporting, this episode explores how self-help principles can be warped by pathological minds — transforming courage into justification, empowerment into entitlement, and action into violence. We examine the context of the discovery, Kohberger's academic writings about “emotions and criminal decision-making,” and his disturbing fascination with overcoming hesitation. The result is a chilling portrait of a man who may have misread a book about personal growth as a guide to fearlessness at any cost. It's not about blame. It's about understanding how ordinary ideas can become extraordinary distortions inside extraordinary minds.

This week, I'm excited to share a special rebroadcast from the Origins Podcast archives: my original Origins Podcast conversation with Noam Chomsky.We recorded this dialog over six years ago, as an update to a conversation we'd held three years prior , before the political upheavals of Trump and Brexit.Listening back now, it's striking how much of what Noam said remains relevant, and in many cases, deeply prescient. As always, he was incisive, informative, provocative, and brilliant. We covered a huge range of topics, starting with the history of anti-intellectualism in America and the role of intellectuals during the Vietnam War , before moving into the nature of American exceptionalism.We also dove into the pressing foreign policy issues of the day, including North Korea, Syria, Israel, Venezuela, and Brazil. While many of the underlying causes may be the same, it's fascinating to see how some of these situations have played out in ways we might never have predicted.From his analysis of free speech debates to his critical concerns about nuclear weapons and the environment, it's a conversation that remains incredibly important.I hope you enjoy revisiting this fascinating conversation.As always, an ad-free video version of this podcast is also available to paid Critical Mass subscribers. Your subscriptions support the non-profit Origins Project Foundation, which produces the podcast. The audio version is available free on the Critical Mass site and on all podcast sites, and the video version will also be available on the Origins Project YouTube.

In this powerful episode of The Level Up Podcast w/ Paul Alex, we sit down with Kassie Kennaugh — Air Force veteran, mother of four, former firefighter, and the entrepreneur who built, scaled, and sold her own insurance agency before becoming President of a major insurance company. Kassie's journey is a raw, emotional blueprint of resilience. From facing trauma, depression, and self-doubt… to losing 150 pounds, rising through the ranks, taking on six-figure debt, scaling her agency 400%, and exiting successfully — her story is the definition of grit, purpose, and transformation. Today, she breaks down:

Phillip Cantrell shares how failing his way to success led to building Benchmark Realty and a 40-year career filled with lessons on mindset and leadership.In this episode of RealDealChat, Jack Hoss interviews Phillip Cantrell, founder of Benchmark Realty and author of Failing My Way to Success, to uncover decades of wisdom from his entrepreneurial journey — from commercial printing to building one of the fastest-growing real estate brokerages in the U.S.Phillip explains why treating real estate as a business, not a hobby, is key to lasting success. He shares his “4 Cornerstones of Business Success,” lessons from losing and rebuilding multiple companies, and the mindset shift that transforms failure into a foundation for growth.You'll learn:Why most entrepreneurs fail (and how to avoid it)The truth about treating real estate as a real businessPhillip's 4 Cornerstones of Success: Work Hard, Observe, Delegate, and Show CompassionWhy “repeatable processes lead to repeatable outcomes”How cross-industry learning fuels innovationThe dangers of comfort zones and fear-based decision-makingHow to overcome self-doubt and lead with authenticityThe importance of writing goals and working on the business, not in it

Passed in 1798 as part of the notorious Alien and Sedition Acts, the Alien Enemies Act has outlived its controversial siblings — and it's still on the books today. In this episode, I trace its origins in the fear and politics of the early republic, how presidents from Madison to FDR have invoked it in times of war, and what it means that this 18th-century law remains active in the 21st century.From the tension between liberty and security to the ways old laws shape modern policy, this is the story of how a relic of the Federalist Era continues to echo through American history.Support the show
