In this episode, we look at Genesis 15:1-21 and the tension many believers feel: How do we trust God who promises, but has not yet delivered?   When our circumstances seem to contradict what God has said, waiting can feel confusing, painful, and discouraging. But Genesis 15 reminds us that God is not afraid of our questions. He invites us to look to Him in the delay, trust His timing, and rest in the certainty of His promises.   Support the work of Rejoice Marriage Ministries     Download the episode transcription here   Follow on Instagram - @rejoicemarriageministries   Follow on Facebook - @rejoicemarriageministries   Every day, you can receive encouragement straight to your inbox through our Fight for Your Marriage Devotional and find free resources and prayers to pray over your marriage.

If you're wondering why gentle parenting isn't working for your strong-willed child, you're not alone. When a child's brain is dysregulated, strategies fall flat—Dr. Roseann Capanna-Hodge shows how Regulation First Parenting™ changes behavior by calming the nervous system first.You're staying calm, explaining, validating—and still, your child pushes back harder. If you feel stuck, you're not alone. This episode breaks down why gentle parenting isn't landing and what actually works when your child's nervous system is dysregulated.Why does gentle parenting not work for my strong-willed child?Here's the truth: it's not bad parenting—it's a dysregulated brain. Gentle parenting works beautifully when a child is regulated and can access their thinking brain.But when your child is escalated?Their thinking brain goes offlineLogic and explanations don't landIt's not that they won't—they can'tYou're speaking to a brain that isn't available.Example: You calmly explain why your child needs to turn off the iPad. Instead of cooperating, they argue, yell, or ignore you. It's not defiance—it's dysregulation.Why does my child argue, ignore me, or escalate when I stay calm?Because calm words alone don't regulate a dysregulated nervous system.When your child pushes back, they're often in:Fight mode (arguing, controlling, defying)Flight mode (avoiding, shutting down)In that state:Reasoning feels like pressureCorrection feels like threatTheir system defends—even harderStrong-willed kids?Dig in deeperEscalate fasterFight longerThat intensity isn't a flaw—it's a nervous system under stress.When your child is dysregulated, it's easy to feel helpless. The Regulation Rescue Kit gives you the scripts and strategies you need to stay grounded and in control.

But the sequence is off.Most parenting advice says:Teach → Explain → CorrectBut for dysregulated kids, it must be:Regulate → Connect → CorrectRegulate: Help the nervous system settleConnect: Build safety and trustCorrect: Teach when the brain is readyWhen you skip regulation, nothing sticks.

Episode Chapter Summaries Chapter 1: The Cosmic Zipper — From Silicon Valley to Telltale Games (00:01 – 04:13) Anne introduces BAFTA award-winning actor Cissy Jones, listing her massive credits across the video game landscape. Cissy shares her unique origin story, starting not in theater, but in the fast-paced venture capital world of Silicon Valley. Despite an early childhood calling to act, she followed corporate expectations until a profound sense of unhappiness led her to a voiceover school. Cissy introduces her concept of the "cosmic zipper"—that beautiful alignment where life clicks together once you finally uncover your true purpose. Within two years of rigorous study, she booked her first massive multi-character rolepacket as Katya in Telltale Games' The Walking Dead. Chapter 2: The Ultimate Boss Move & The Impact of the Mic (04:14 – 07:47) Anne pauses to highlight an incredible tactical move from Cissy's early days: learning how to engineer audioaudio engineer sessions when she couldn't afford a class ticket, allowing her to stay in the casting room and absorb director feedback through osmosis. Cissy highlights her deep appreciation for characters like Lilith in Disney's The Owl House. She recounts emotional fan interactions at Comic-Cons, where parents and children shared how her character's arc helped them process their own queer or neurodivergent identities, reinforcing the true purpose of human storytelling. Chapter 3: Mastering Storytelling & Leaning Into Vulnerability (07:48 – 11:44) Anne asks Cissy what internal mechanics make a voice actor a master storyteller. Cissy credits her willingness to tap deeply into intense, unshielded human emotion on demand. She offers a crucial piece of advice for talent exploring the character and interactive space: when a script calls for real, raw emotion, do not paint over it with cartoony comedy. Voice actors must lean courageously into authentic psychological vulnerability while carefully managing their own mental well-being when a heavy scene leaves them emotionally drained. Chapter 4: The 3-Second Threat & The AI Wake-Up Call (11:45 – 17:31) The conversation turns to advocacy as Cissy recounts a terrifying experience during the 2021 COVID lockdown. Fans alerted her to AI voice clone platforms generating pornographic content using her vocal likeness from The Owl House. When she demanded a takedown, the platforms refused, citing a complete lack of protective voice laws. Cissy breaks down a jarring technological reality: in 2021, creating a believable vocal clone required roughly 10 hours of studio audio; today, it takes just 3 seconds. She highlights why NAVA is actively working with legislators to target security loopholes, citing an experiment where NAVA co-founder Karin Gilfrey successfully bypassed her personal bank security using an AI clone of her own voice. Chapter 5: Ethovox — Creating a Safe Haven Under Lock and Key (17:32 – 24:03) Drawing on her technical venture capital background, Cissy shares why she refused to sit idly by and instead launched her own ethical AI startup called Ethovox. Unlike predatory public marketplaces that ingest and trade off voice talent data, Ethovox operates as a highly secure, private repository. The company explicitly mandates full actor consent, works hand-in-hand with talent agencies to negotiate fair rates, and refuses to sell baseline training data. Cissy reveals a massive boss move: walking away from a lucrative seven-figure institutional funding offer because the investors admitted they did not care if voice actors survived. Chapter 6: The Fight in D.C. & How the VO Community Can Help (24:04 – End) Cissy praises NAVA's leadership—specifically Tim Friedlander, CKarin Gilfrey, and Matthew Parham—for their relentless, bipartisan legislative efforts in Washington, D.C., to pass protections such aspushes in Washington, D.C. to pass protections like the federal No Fakes Act. She stresses that while Washington politicians may not inherently care about actors, they care deeply about cybersecurity risks and digital identity theft affecting their voters. The episode wraps with an urgent call to action for the VO community to support NAVA through membership dues, alongside an invitation to participate in NAVA's annual Day of Play charity streaming event. Top 10 Boss Takeaways Watch for the "Cosmic Zipper": If you are forcing a career path and constantly meeting friction and exhaustion, step back. When you strike the path you were truly meant to walk, the doors lock into place effortlessly. Immerse yourself through service: If you cannot afford premium training starting out, find alternative ways to be in the room. Learn to engineer, edit, or assist so you can witness directing choices and build organic network connections. Storytelling demands real human impact: Vocal mechanics mean absolutely nothing if your performance isn't reaching past the microphone to touch, change, or validate the human experience of the listener. Don't hide behind a cartoon read: When a script asks for deep psychological weight or heavy sorrow, do not soften the blow with safe, performative humor. Stand confidently in your vulnerability. Acknowledge the 3-second reality: Vocal cloning technology requires as little as 3 seconds of pristine audio—meaning your outgoing cell phone voicemail clip is enough to compromise security systems or clone your identity. AI needs ethical boundaries: Innovation cannot be stopped, but it must be met with the three foundational pillars of advocacy: absolute Consent, fair Compensation, and structural Control over personal vocal assets. Protect your core data: Avoid voice AI platforms that treat your unique biological voiceprint as disposable ammunition to train broader, open-source language models. Reputation over revenue: True leaders know when to walk away. Cissy's rejection of a massive seven-figure check because investors devalued human talent is the ultimate blueprint for protecting your personal integrity over a quick paycheck. Bipartisan framing is key in advocacy: When pushing for systemic change or workplace protections, leave personal political ideologies outside the room. Speak directly to staffers about the universal dangers of digital kidnapping, fraud, and corporate IP theft. A rising tide lifts all boats: Success in this industry is never a zero-sum game. There is plenty of room for creative minds to flourish. Lift your peers up, guard each other's rights, and protect the human element.

Mike Armistead has been in the room for almost every major technology wave of the past 30 years — from client-server computing, to the early internet at Lycos, to application security at Fortify Software (acquired by HP), to AI-driven security at Respond Software (acquired by FireEye for $186M, eventually folded into Google). Now on his sixth startup, he's CEO of Pulse Security AI, building what he calls a "system of record" for security leaders — giving CISOs the same kind of business-level visibility that CFOs get from their ERP and sales leaders get from their CRM.In this episode, Jeff and Mike dig into the weight of inertia that slows every major technology transition, why conviction is the one thing that gets founders through the rough patches, and how to stress-test your assumptions before spending a year building something people will admire but never buy. They also go deep on the evolving cybersecurity landscape — why security tools have historically grown in siloed, technical layers, why AI-driven threats (deepfakes, impersonation, prompt injection) are accelerating faster than most organizations can respond, and why scenario planning is no longer a quarterly exercise — it's a survival skill.Key Takeaways0:00 — Intro: The real obstacle to technology transitions isn't innovation — it's the weight of existing systems, habits, and inertia3:00 — Why conviction is the essential quality that gets founders through rough patches in every startup cycle7:00 — Lessons from Reed Hastings' Pure Software: culture, ethics, and values were being built even before Netflix9:00 — Risk evaluation after multiple exits: what Mike learned from walking into a high-debt company right before 9/11 — and why structural due diligence matters as much as product quality11:30 — The value of tabletop exercises: role-playing "what if" scenarios with co-founders and executives surfaces risks you'd never otherwise think about12:45 — What is Pulse Security AI?

It's what gets you through the rough patches — and there are always rough patches." — Mike Armistead"History doesn't repeat itself, but it certainly rhymes. You're gonna encounter certain things everywhere, and you have to learn how to break out of the bucket people want to put you in." — Mike Armistead"'That's cool' is not the same as 'I'd pay for that.' You have to listen for when they start thinking about how they can buy it." — Mike Armistead"Risk mitigation isn't a 'done' setting. Just because you're certified today doesn't mean you're protected tomorrow." — Mike Armistead"We live in a trust-and-verify world. If something is asking you to do something you wouldn't normally do, the flags have to go up." — Mike Armistead"AI doesn't scale people. It scales attacks. The infrastructure we built was designed for a different threat landscape." — Mike ArmisteadSaaS Leadership LessonsConviction is your most valuable asset in a hard growth cycle. Every startup goes through wild swings. The founders who make it through aren't the ones with the best product at every moment — they're the ones who maintained conviction that what they were building would be genuinely valuable to their customers. Momentum fades. Conviction doesn't.Do your structural due diligence before you walk in. Mike's hardest lesson came from his first CEO role: a high-debt company that collapsed not because the business was failing, but because lenders called loans after 9/11. The business itself was fine. The structure killed it. Always understand the financial architecture of what you're walking into — especially in uncertain macro environments.Run tabletop exercises with your leadership team. Don't wait for a crisis to figure out your response. Role-play "what if" scenarios regularly with your co-founders and executives. Someone always surfaces a risk you hadn't considered — and the solutions are often simpler than you'd expect. This is no longer optional; it's a survival skill.Know where you are in the adoption curve — and don't fight it. Early adopters will take a chance on you because they see competitive advantage. Mainstream buyers need proof points. Late adopters need to see their peers doing it. Pestering a mainstream buyer with an early-stage pitch isn't a winning fight. Build for the stage you're actually in.Ask the uncomfortable pricing question early and often. Founders are wired to build. We're not always wired to sell. But the market will tell you the truth faster than any advisor. Ask potential customers directly: "Would you pay X for this?" Fight through the politeness. Watch for buying signals — when someone starts thinking about procurement rather than just nodding along, you're onto something.Stop building for "cool" — build for "when can I buy it?" Customer enthusiasm and purchase intent are not the same thing. If your beta testers are telling you it's great but nobody's asking how to get it, you haven't found product-market fit. Continually test your story, move toward a bigger narrative when needed, and keep engaging the market until the signals change.Guest Resourcesmike@pulsesecurity.aipulsesecurity.aihttps://www.linkedin.com/in/mike-armistead-1164715/Episode SponsorThe Futureproof Series - https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLfkXKUPZ5xuOqMPR7_gzGybncTtavyR1NThe Captain's KeysSmall Fish, Big Pond – https://smallfishbigpond.com/ Use the promo code ‘SaaSFuel'Champion Leadership Group – https://championleadership.com/SaaS Fuel ResourcesWebsite - https://championleadership.com/Jeff Mains on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/jeffkmains/Twitter - https://twitter.com/jeffkmainsFacebook - https://www.facebook.com/thesaasguy/Instagram - https://instagram.com/jeffkmains

Matt Leiner joins me on the podcast tonight. With all the Fight for Gotham unboxing videos being released, we talk a little bit about the Fight for Gotham set and go over what we think will be on the winning team at Origins.

Fight response isn't just anger or "being reactive." It's a nervous system adaptation shaped by experiences where safety, protection, repair, or authenticity were missing. In this episode of Trauma Rewired, Jennifer Wallace and Elisabeth Kristof explore the neuroscience of the fight response, how suppressed anger turns inward as a harsh inner critic or outward as criticism and control, and why the body stays braced for threat long after the danger has passed.  This conversation explores parentification, emotional suppression, hypervigilance, chronic stress patterns, and the hidden ways fight response impacts relationships, health, and self-trust. The hosts break down how trauma wires survival patterns into the nervous system—and how daily neuro practices can help recondition those pathways toward safety and connection.   You'll learn: • Why fight response is protection, not a personality flaw • How suppressed anger impacts the nervous system and body • The connection between parentification and chronic fight states • Why the inner critic is often internalized fight energy • How nervous system patterns shape relationships and emotional reactivity • The neuroscience of emotional suppression, stress, and survival responses

In this episode, Dr. Farina King and guest co-host Dr. Kiara Vigil talk with the editors and contributors of the new book Lyda Conley and the Fight to Preserve Huron Indian Cemetery, which tells the story of a trailblazing Wyandot lawyer and activist who defended the burial grounds of her family and ancestors in Kansas City. This work focuses on the life and legacy of Eliza ("Lyda") Burton Conley, a Wyandot woman whose fight to protect her people's burial ground continues to shape how we think about federal Indian law, sovereignty, and memory in the United States. Lyda is widely recognized as the first Indigenous woman to argue a case before the U.S. Supreme Court, but as our guests remind us, she never stood alone. Her sisters Ida and Helena, and generations of Wyandot women, shared in the labor of defending their cemetery and their community, both in the courts and on the ground.Our guests—historian and educator Dr. Tai Edwards, Wyandot Nation of Kansas member and editor Stephanie Bennett, researcher and writer Samantha (Sam) Gill, and Wyandotte playwright Madeline (Maddie) Easley—discuss how their collaborative book brings together biography, archival documents, oral histories, and theater. They talk about reading newspapers and treaties against the grain, navigating access to scattered archives, and recording oral histories with living relatives and tribal leaders. The book offers not just a narrative of Lyda's life but a source reader and teaching tool that invites more research and classroom conversation.Together, the editors and contributors frame Lyda's story as a refusal to accept erasure—what they call “fighting for memory, fighting for honor.” Their work reminds us why this story matters now, in a moment when Indigenous lands, ancestors, and rights are still contested, and when community-based scholarship and art can help chart more just futures.The University Press of Kansas launched the Lyda Conley Series on Trailblazing Indigenous Futures several years ago named in honor of Lyda Conley. Kiara Vigil, Tai Edwards, and Farina King serve as co-editors of the series, and they have hoped for a book to acknowledge and highlight the life and work of Lyda Conley. Finally, that hope is realized with this new book.Resources:Order the book Lyda Conley and the Fight to Preserve Huron Indian Cemetery Samantha Gill, blog piece titled, “Lyda Conley: Women's History Everyone Should Know” (March 2026) “As a thank you for reading the UPK blog, enjoy 20% off this new book when you order directly from the University Press of Kansas website.

Arthur Garfield Hays was one of the twentieth century's most influential attorneys. A champion of free speech and civil liberties, he fought prohibition, housing discrimination, and censorship, while taking part in some of the era's most significant civil rights cases. He was also an early opponent of Hitler and Nazism, helping defend the communists accused of setting the Reichstag fire in 1933. Despite his remarkable career, no book had focused exclusively on Hays's legal work until now. On this episode of the History Tavern Podcast, I welcomed Richard F. Hamm, author of the new book Confronting Racism: Arthur Garfield Hays and the Fight for Equality, 1925-1954. This was a particularly special interview for me. Professor Hamm served as the chair on my dissertation committee and is one of the best advisors in the history field.

Deconstruction isn't a modern invention — Paul saw it coming two thousand years ago and gave the church its prescription. We're in 1 Timothy 1:18–20, where Paul commissions Timothy to fight the good fight and names two men who didn't — and the difference between them and Timothy wasn't intelligence or background, it was whether they kept holding on. Join us as we look at the nature of the fight worth having, the weapons Paul says every believer carries, and what it looks like when those weapons are laid down.Fight the good fight...1) The nature of it2) The weapons for it3) The cautionary examples to avoidText: 1 Timothy 1:18-20

Trump turned America's 250th birthday, the country's semiquincentennial, into a $60 million UFC cage fight on the White House South Lawn for his own 80th birthday. This episode of We Saw the Devil breaks down the entire Freedom 250 disaster: the pay-per-view cage match, the beer and crypto sponsors, the commemorative coin with his face on it, and the party lights that nearly blinded a pilot landing at Reagan National. Host Robin, a jaded Poli Sci major and full-time political obsessee, follows the money through the UFC, Paramount, the $110 billion merger that needs Trump's blessing, Jane Fonda's rival concert at 88, the ring girl outfits that violate flag code on Flag Day, and the six states that refused to attend their own country's birthday.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/we-saw-the-devil-unfiltered-political-analysis--4433638/support.Website: http://www.wesawthedevil.comPatreon: http://www.patreon.com/wesawthedevilDiscord: https://discord.gg/X2qYXdB4Twitter: http://www.twitter.com/WeSawtheDevilInstagram: http://www.instagram.com/wesawthedevilpodcast.

America was supposed to turn 250 this year.

Send us Fan MailCan athletes get significantly faster without spending more time sprinting?In Part 1 of this conversation, Steven sits down with Michael to explore the relationship between strength development, sprint performance, and athletic coordination. Michael breaks down how exercises such as sled drags, belted marches, deep box squats, and specialty movements can improve running mechanics by developing strength where athletes need it most.The discussion dives into posture, hip position, shin splints, foot and ankle strength, and why relative strength plays a critical role in maintaining efficient movement patterns during competition. They also challenge traditional conditioning models, examining how strength-based approaches can replace excessive road work while improving performance and reducing wear and tear.Steven and Michael further explore the transfer of strength to speed, the development of acceleration, and why many successful distance runners begin as speed-based athletes. Along the way, they discuss athlete development, wrestling preparation, and how exposing athletes to challenging training environments can improve resilience and decision-making under pressure.Topics Covered:• Strength training for sprint performance• Belted marches, sled drags, and below-knee development• Posture and hip position during running• Reducing shin splints and overuse injuries• Sprint-to-distance athlete transitions• Wrestling preparation and conditioning• Fight-or-flight states in athletic performance• Building acceleration through strength development• Deep box squats and force production• Developing resilient, adaptable athletesWhether you're a sprint coach, strength coach, track athlete, or simply interested in performance development, this episode offers a fresh perspective on how strength drives speed.https://youtube.com/@platesandpancakes4593https://instagram.com/voodoo4power?igshid=YmMyMTA2M2Y=https://voodoo4ranch.com/To possibly be a guest or support the show email Voodoo4ranch@gmail.comhttps://www.paypal.com/paypalme/voodoo4ranch

What Are You Under the Influence Of? How Fear, Trauma & Other People's Opinions Keep You Stuck After Betrayal After betrayal, everyone seems to have advice. Leave. Stay. Fight for your marriage. Run. Forgive. Never trust again. But when your nervous system is overwhelmed, it's easy to absorb other people's certainty instead of listening to your own truth. In this episode, Lora explores how betrayal trauma increases suggestibility, why fear spreads so quickly, and how to reclaim your ability to think clearly, trust yourself, and make decisions from wisdom rather than panic. Drawing from her experience as an attorney, clinical hypnotherapist, and betrayal recovery coach, Lora explains why knowledge reduces fear, how hypnosis can help break the trance of trauma, and why discernment—not certainty—is the real path to healing. If you've ever wondered whether you're making decisions based on your own truth or someone else's story, this episode is for you. Top 3 Takeaways Betrayal Trauma Makes You More Suggestible. When your nervous system is overwhelmed, your brain naturally seeks certainty. That's why it's easy to absorb other people's opinions, fears, and experiences instead of trusting yourself. Discernment Is Different Than Fear. Fear demands immediate answers. Discernment allows reality to reveal itself over time. Healing isn't about becoming hypervigilant—it's about staying connected to yourself while the truth unfolds. Knowledge Creates Calm. Understanding your legal, financial, emotional, and relational options doesn't force a decision. It reduces fear, increases clarity, and helps you make choices from a place of confidence rather than panic. Favorite Quotes "When we're desperate for certainty, we start borrowing certainty from other people." "Discernment is the ability to stay connected to yourself while reality reveals itself." "Fear shrinks your world. Knowledge expands it." "Healing isn't about becoming fearless. It's about learning how to hear yourself again underneath the noise." LOVE THE SHOW?

It is about getting serious.We are past the point where cardboard signs and polite appeals are enough. Power does not retreat because we are morally correct. Power retreats when it is confronted, exposed, organized against, and made to pay a price.Silence will not save us.Respectability will not save us.Faith in broken institutions will not save us.Only disciplined struggle builds power. So, let's get to workIntro: Quote of the Week: James Baldwin Unmasking the News: Democracy Watch: The June Primaries Are a Crystal Ball for the Midterms Trump Acts Like a Spoiled Child: The Politics of Unreality Victor Marx: False Claims and the Grift of Sacred Credibility Good News: HBCU Founders, Tech Power, and the Future of Black Innovation Strategies for Black Power:  How to Fight and Defeat the Trump Coalition Reflections and Call to Action:Closing/Outro: Sources:https://www.pbs.org/newshour/politics/a-rare-trump-setback-a-missing-congressman-and-spencer-pratt-6-takeaways-from-the-latest-midterm-primaries?https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026/jun/07/trump-walks-out-meet-the-press-nbc-interview?https://coloradosun.com/2026/05/31/littwin-victor-marx-kyle-clark-interview-wins-maga-votes/?https://tech.einnews.com/pr_news/916574345/historic-first-ever-hbcu-pitch-competition-comes-to-times-square-during-ny-tech-week?Power Concedes Nothing without a Demand...

“The same creative and political forces that gave rise to [San Francisco's] boom nearly engineered its collapse.” — Jonathan Weber In Hitchcock's Vertigo, the quintessential San Francisco movie, the villain points to an old painting of the city and tells Jimmy Stewart that San Francisco has changed. The real city has been lost, he says. Somebody has stolen San Francisco's soul. The veteran tech journalist Jonathan Weber is the latest writer to search for that soul. In City on the Edge: Technology, Politics, and the Fight for the Soul of San Francisco, Weber bemoans the disappearance of the real San Francisco — the city not just of the Beats and the Counterculture but also of ordinary teachers and policemen. We've had thirty years of boom, bust, and Big Tech. The ordinary folks of San Francisco have been replaced by a new class of tech bros. In 1992, just 2% of San Franciscans worked in tech. By 2019 it was 35%. As a longtime San Franciscan, Weber had a front-row seat on the dot-com mania, the rise of social media, Uber and Airbnb, the pandemic's great emptying of downtown, and now the AI boom driven by the San Francisco-based Anthropic and OpenAI. In City on the Edge, Weber argues that the same creative and political forces that gave rise to the boom — the counterculture's anarchic spirit, the city's love affair with eccentricity, the tech industry's utopian self-belief — also engineered its near-collapse. Digital vertigo, so to speak. Once again somebody has stolen San Francisco's soul. Five Takeaways •       From 2% to 35%: The Numbers Behind the Transformation: In 1992, just 2% of San Francisco workers were in tech. By 2019 it was 35%. The book traces how this happened: a city economically troubled in the early 1990s, still reeling from AIDS and the 1989 Loma Prieta earthquake, with its manufacturing base gone and its corporate headquarters thinning out. Into this vacuum came a group of free-thinking technologists immersed in the city's creative counterculture. They invented the contemporary internet. What followed was one of the most rapid urban transformations in American history. •       The Cacophony Society and the Founding of Burning Man: Before the tech boom, San Francisco in the early 1990s had a remarkable underground culture. Weber writes about the Cacophony Society — the group of anarchic free spirits who effectively founded the Burning Man festival. The Cacophony Society emerged from the counterculture of the 1960s through various evolutions — Situationist pranks, urban exploration, radical creativity. Burning Man began as their annual trip to the Black Rock Desert. The spirit of that founding: go somewhere, build something, be someone different, leave no trace. That spirit was the soul of the city too. •       The City of Nostalgia: Always Believing Yesterday Was Better: Weber takes his Vertigo reference seriously. San Francisco is structurally a city of nostalgia — people arrive with a fixed idea of what the city is, and it inevitably becomes something different. The gap between the idea and the reality generates permanent mourning. This is not unique to San Francisco — Trump has built a presidency on the idea that things were better in the 1950s — but it is intensified here by the height of the hopes people bring. The city means something bigger than itself. That is both its greatest asset and its permanent wound. •       The AI Boom and the Coming IPO Earthquake: The current AI boom is, in Weber's reading, likely to be the largest yet. OpenAI and Anthropic are both based in the city. When those IPOs happen, San Francisco real estate — already rising 25–50% in some neighbourhoods, Andrew notes — will go, in Weber's words, “really, really crazy again.” Hundreds of thousands of millionaires will be created overnight. The city is gradually becoming uniformly wealthy. Some of the old tensions may be less intense for that reason. But Weber does not think the cycles are over. The current boom will bust, as all booms do. What comes next is the question. •       Burning Man, the Internet, and the Future of Cities: Weber ends the book at Burning Man. His closing observation: when the internet arrived on the playa, Burning Man lost the sense that it was a separate world — a place where you could be a different person, because nothing from your regular life could reach you. Now everyone has a phone. The privacy is gone. The sense of separation is gone. For cities: part of the power of cities is that they bring people together, and good things arise from that friction. But if technology no longer requires you to be in the same place, cities become less essential. What is the future of the city in the age of technology? Weber doesn't have a tidy answer. Neither does anyone else. About the Guest Jonathan Weber is a veteran technology journalist and the author of City on the Edge: Technology, Politics, and the Fight for the Soul of San Francisco (Atria Books, June 9, 2026). He was the founding editor-in-chief of The Industry Standard, former editor-in-chief of the San Francisco Standard, and covered the technology industry for the Los Angeles Times. He lives in San Francisco. References: •       City on the Edge: Technology, Politics, and the Fight for the Soul of San Francisco by Jonathan Weber (Atria Books, June 9, 2026). •       David Talbot, Season of the Witch: Enchantment, Terror, and Deliverance in the City of Love — referenced in the conversation; Weber's recommended companion read on 1970s San Francisco. •       Ezra Klein and Derek Thompson, Abundance — referenced in the closing exchange. •       Joan Didion, Slouching Towards Bethlehem — the opening epigraph to Weber's book, referenced in the conversation. •       Alfred Hitchcock, Vertigo (1958) — Andrew's reference; the film's own meditation on San Francisco as a city of nostalgia. About Keen On America Nobody asks more awkward questions than the Anglo-American writer and filmmaker Andrew Keen. In Keen On America, Andrew brings his pointed Transatlantic wit to making sense of the United States — hosting daily interviews about the history and future of this now venerable Republic. With nearly 2,900 episodes since the show launched on TechCrunch in 2010, Keen On America is the most prolific intellectual interview show in the history of podcasting. WebsiteSubstack

Women are constantly told to trust their bodies… right up until their bodies start telling them something medicine can't immediately explain. In this powerful and deeply validating conversation, Nicole sits down with Amy Kurtz — certified health coach, patient advocate, speaker, and author of But You Look Fine: Trapped in the Hell Between Sick and Well and How to Break Free — to unpack the emotional aftermath of chronic illness, medical gaslighting, invisible symptoms, and the complicated grief that comes from losing trust in your own body. Amy shares her experience navigating late-stage Lyme disease, seeing 36 doctors before getting answers, and what she calls “medical trauma brain” — the hypervigilance, anxiety, and identity loss that can remain long after physical symptoms improve. Together, Nicole and Amy explore why so many women feel dismissed in healthcare settings, how chronic illness reshapes relationships and self-trust, and why healing is about far more than just getting a diagnosis. This episode is for every woman who has ever walked out of a doctor's office feeling unheard, minimized, or crazy — and for every person who's ever been told, “But you look fine.” We explore: How chronic illness and invisible symptoms impact identity and self-trust The concept of “medical trauma brain” and illness after the illness Why healing isn't linear — physically or emotionally Practical nervous system regulation tools for anxiety and hypervigilance How to support loved ones dealing with chronic illness or perimenopause The connection between women's health, appearance, and societal expectations Why rebuilding agency over your body is essential to healing This conversation is equal parts rage, relief, validation, and empowerment — the kind that makes you feel less alone and more equipped to trust yourself again.

Andy's out this week for the best possible reason — he got married! (Congratulations, Andy and Erica!

Science is under attack, and not by accident.  In this episode of Cut to the Chase, Gregg Goldfarb sits down with Dr. Michael E. Mann, one of the world's leading climate scientists, to expose the coordinated, well-financed campaign working to discredit research, intimidate scientists, and pull public opinion away from the facts. From the "hockey stick" graph that made him a target to the death threats, the gutting of federal science agencies, and the way climate denial and vaccine misinformation merged into one anti-science machine, Mann lays out how we got here — and where the openings to fight back actually are. Co-author with Dr. Peter Hotez of the new book Science Under Siege, Mann brings candor and a surprising amount of hope to a heavy subject: why he never backed down, and what he tells students who still dream of becoming scientists. Join Gregg and Dr. Michael Mann on Cut to the Chase as they explore: Why the "hockey stick" graph made one scientist a target for powerful interests How climate denial and vaccine misinformation merged into one anti-science movement What "stochastic terrorism" is, and the real-world cost of speaking out Why clean energy and affordability may be the strongest case for climate action How attribution science could let courts hold fossil fuel companies accountable What Mann tells the next generation of scientists about staying in the fight     KEY MOMENTS 0:12 — Opening: defending truth in a world awash with misinformation 1:38 — The "hockey stick" graph and why it made Mann a target 5:12 — How climate and vaccine denial merged into one anti-science machine 8:12 — The "ladder of denial": why the arguments keep shifting 10:09 — Stochastic terrorism, death threats, and the personal cost 13:26 — Social media, podcasts, and the spread of misinformation 14:51 — Why he refused to give up 18:53 — The political path forward and the midterm elections 19:02 — The MAHA movement: common ground or trap? 23:37 — Why clean energy and affordability should lead the message 32:01 — Advice to students who still want to become scientists 36:01 — The EPA's rollback of the endangerment finding 38:54 — Attribution science, climate liability, and "the polluter pays" 41:03 — The U.S. on the world stage and ceding ground to China 43:56 — Closing: don't politicize the planet   Dr. Michael E. Mann is a presidential distinguished professor in the Department of Earth and Environmental Science at the University of Pennsylvania, where he directs the Penn Center for Science, Sustainability, and the Media. One of the world's most influential climate scientists, he is best known for the "hockey stick" graph, which became an iconic and fiercely contested symbol of human-caused climate change. His latest book, Science Under Siege: How to Fight the Five Most Powerful Forces that Threaten Our World (PublicAffairs, 2025), is co-authored with vaccine scientist Dr. Peter J. Hotez and examines the political and ideological forces driving today's attacks on science, and how the public can fight back. He is also the co-author, with the late Pulitzer Prize–winning cartoonist Tom Toles, of The Madhouse Effect. Named to Bloomberg News's list of the 50 most influential people in 2013, Mann has spent decades at the intersection of science, policy, and public communication, defending evidence-based research in the face of organized denial and personal attacks.   The resources mentioned in this episode are: Book: Science Under Siege: How to Fight the Five Most Powerful Forces that Threaten Our World — by Michael E.

Michael Shermer speaks with Oxford philosopher Carissa Véliz about the long human desire to know the future—from ancient oracles and astrology to AI, surveillance capitalism, predictive policing, and "data-driven" decision-making. Véliz argues that prediction is rarely neutral: the same machinery that collects personal data also tries to forecast behavior, and once institutions start treating predictions as facts, forecasts can become tools of control. The conversation gets into why privacy matters for democracy, how algorithms can turn human lives into self-fulfilling prophecies, and why extraordinary people often fall outside predictive models. Shermer and Véliz also discuss the limits of science, the replication crisis, crime statistics, effective altruism, utilitarian ethics, and free will. Carissa Véliz is an associate professor at the Institute for Ethics in AI at the University of Oxford. Her first book, Privacy Is Power (Melville House) was an Economist book of the year and has been published in seven languages. Her academic work has been published in The Harvard Business Review, Nature, AI & Society, and The American Journal of Bioethics, among others. Her new book is Prophecy: Prediction, Power, and the Fight for the Future, from Ancient Oracles to AI.
