It wasn't just the series finale of Star Trek: Enterprise. “These Are the Voyages” marked the end of an 18-year era of continuous Star Trek on television, dating back to The Next Generation in 1987. Emotions ran high on set, and not all of them were celebratory. Returning guest Mike DeMeritt, First Assistant Director on Enterprise, brings us a candid look behind the scenes of Trek's broadcast-era farewell. From dismantled sets to discarded call sheets (but not underwear), we explore the atmosphere and aftermath of one of Trek's most controversial finales.

2025 is predicted to be a year of significant change and chaos, characterized by a revolution of consciousness. Our latest interview features the legendary Regina Meredith, a seasoned journalist and a pioneer in conscious media, with a career spanning over three decades. In this podcast, Regina Meredith & Emilio Ortiz discusses the upcoming year 2025, characterizing it as a time of chaos and revolution in consciousness. She emphasizes the importance of revelations, both personal and societal, as humanity confronts its secrets. The discussion also touches on the concept of a split Earth, where different frequencies of consciousness may lead to parallel realities. The role of AI in the future of humanity is explored, alongside the potential for humans to harness their higher minds, drawing lessons from past civilizations like Atlantis. The conversation also touches on the significance of letting go of judgment to foster a new humanity, the complexities of UFOs and extraterrestrial encounters, and the vital connection with nature for future generations.Regina Meredith began her media journey as a ski reporter for NBC affiliate KCRA-TV in Sacramento, California, delivering the nation's first television and radio ski reports. Her exceptional work led her to become one of the first women in television sports broadcasting on NBC. In 2004, Regina and her husband, Scott Meredith, co-founded the Conscious Media Network, one of the first platforms to stream conscious videos online. This venture later merged with GaiamTV (now Gaia) in 2012, where Regina continues to produce and host thought-provoking content through shows like "Open Minds," "Healing Matrix," and "Phenomena." Throughout her career, Regina has been dedicated to exploring esoteric and hidden sciences, aiming to uncover truths beyond the conventional five-sense reality.___________________PODCAST CHAPTERS00:00 - Regina Meredith Intro1:19 - What Excites You About Life Now?2:23 - Predictions for 20254:31 - Inner vs. Outer Revolution6:06 - Humanity's Need for Revelation and Unveiling Secrets9:46 - Regina's Journey to John the Baptist Monastery15:26 - Spontaneous Downloads & Thinning Dimensional Veils21:09 - Two Earths Scenario: Navigating Dimensional Splits27:02 - Which Earth Are We On? 30:07 - Future Human: AI and Humanity's Evolution33:57 - Protecting Human Sovereignty in the Age of AI37:41 - Hermetic Wisdom & Creating Through the Higher Mind39:10 - Remembering Atlantis46:30 - Final Days of Atlantis: Lessons and Warnings51:58 - Humanity's Return to the Golden Age54:27 - The Heart and Planetary Frequencies57:22 - Letting Go of Judgment59:40 - Asking Deep Questions: Connecting with the Heart1:03:51 - UFOs, Dimensions, and Government Secrets1:14:00 - The Final Trio1:21:33 - Future Collaboration: The Zoomer and the Boomer___________________Guest: Regina Meredith, Investigative Journalist & Pioneer in Conscious Media✦ Website | https://reginameredith.com/✦ YouTube Channel | @ReginaMeredith ✦ Watch "Open Minds" on Gaia | https://gaia.com/emilio✦ Instagram | / reginameredith_official Host: Emilio Ortiz✦ IG | / iamemilioortiz ✦ Subscribe to Channel | / emilioortiz ✦ Watch Emilio's latest series on 4biddenknowledge TV l https://bit.ly/AwakenThe6thSense___________________© 2024 Emilio Ortiz.

Send us a textIn this episode we jump around a bit in our timeline in this final episode that looks back at George H. W. Bush's presidency. We will look at the one request Bush made to his successor of what he hoped would continue after he left office. Bush wanted the Points of Light initiative to outlive him. It did. President Clinton not only honored that request, he embraced it with the same vigor that Bush had shown. Today, the Points of Light Foundation works with millions of volunteers around the world to assist in promoting volunteerism and tackling countless issues in order to make the world a better place. We will look at the Foundation as it exists today, learn more about the couple who inspired it, and watch the final event at the Bush White House honoring the individual people who made up those early volunteer efforts.

When suffering, sometimes we go into "survival mode" and set aside may important things in our lives. Sometimes, we wonder if we should bother reading the Bible when it's too difficult. This episode helps you think through how we should understand the effects of suffering on our Bible reading, how to be on guard against the deceptiveness of our flesh, and how to rejoice in giving God everything we have in our daily devotions (especially when we don't have much to give).

Endless Thread is thrilled to introduce you to a new podcast from our friends at NHPR's Document team. That's the team behind other great narrative shows like Bear Brook and The 13th Step. For the past six months, NHPR reporter Todd Bookman has been spending a lot of time thinking about… a cat. This cat's name is Sergeant Tibbs – he's 19. Tibbs goes missing… and lands in the center of a lot of human pain, confusion… and internet outrage. And as Todd investigated what happened here, he found a pretty profound story about what we owe our pets – and our neighbors. This week, we're bringing you the first episode "Chicken Livers" of The Final Days of Sgt. Tibbs. We hope you enjoy! To hear the rest of the series, follow The Final Days of Sgt. Tibbs wherever you get podcasts.
By 9 a.m. yesterday morning, the ninth day of jury selection in Karen Read's retrial was already off to a predictable start—crowded courtroom, skeptical jurors, and a legal system trying to keep its balance on a tightrope of publicity and public opinion. Out of the 55 potential jurors who showed up to Norfolk Superior Court in Dedham, a staggering 49 admitted they had already seen, heard, or talked about the case. That's nearly everyone. And 24 of them said, yep, they'd already made up their minds. Perfect conditions for a fair trial, right? Let's back up. Karen Read is the woman accused of backing her SUV into her boyfriend, Boston Police Officer John O'Keefe, after a night of drinking in January 2022. She's facing charges that include second-degree murder and manslaughter while operating under the influence, but her defense team claims this is a frame job—that someone else is responsible and she's been hung out to dry. The prosecution, on the other hand, says she ran him down and left him to die in the snow outside a Canton home. The original plan was to seat 16 jurors, but somewhere along the way that got bumped up to 18. Only 12 of them will actually deliberate—standard setup, with six alternates waiting in the wings in case someone drops out. But that small detail underlines something bigger: this jury pool is treated like an endangered species. And with good reason. The sheer volume of pretrial noise, especially online, has made the idea of an unbiased juror feel more like a theory than a possibility. So what's it actually like to be a potential juror in this case? First, they're herded into the courtroom, where Judge Beverly Cannone gives the same speech every morning. She tells them what prosecutors say happened—Read allegedly struck O'Keefe with her car—and reminds them that Read is presumed innocent. Then, she basically warns them that the circus outside the courtroom isn't going anywhere. “Public comment will likely continue,” she tells them, “but the rule of law will be upheld.” It's part pep talk, part damage control. Then comes the witness list: 150 names. Yes, 150. It's a small-town phone book worth of people who might end up taking the stand. After that, there's a three-page questionnaire. Then, and only then, does the real work begin—individual questioning. Each side gets 16 strikes. That means they can boot a juror for pretty much any reason short of discrimination. Karen Read's team had already used 10 by Monday, which means they're being strategic, saving a few in the chamber for later rounds. And speaking of later rounds—some of these potential jurors aren't just walking in with opinions, they're walking in with conflicts. Of the 55 questioned Monday, 28 said they had scheduling issues serious enough to interfere with trial participation. Students, surgeries, you name it. One can only imagine the creative excuses stacking up like a game of Jury Duty Bingo. All of this matters because this case is as much about optics and perception as it is about evidence. And seating an impartial jury in a trial that has consumed TikTok, Facebook, and group chats across Massachusetts is like trying to find someone in Boston who's never heard of Tom Brady. The first trial took five full days to seat a jury. We're now nine days into the second round, and the court has managed to get 16 people locked in. Two more to go. If that happens quickly, opening statements could come as soon as Tuesday—at least, that's what Read herself told reporters. But don't get comfortable. This jury selection process has made one thing abundantly clear: finding someone who hasn't already been influenced by the whirlwind surrounding this case is a lot like trying to find a needle in a haystack where the haystack is actively watching Dateline. #KarenRead #JurySelection #JohnOKeefe #TrueCrimeJustice Want to listen to ALL our podcasts AD-FREE?
