Expanding the WorldWhat's it like contributing to a Tim Burton universe project?What excited you most about the chance to tell a new story within The Nightmare Before Christmas universe, and how did you approach capturing that distinct mix of spooky and sweet?2. Character FocusSally takes center stage in this series. What aspects of her character did you want to explore or expand on that fans haven't seen before?3. The New CreationDr. Finkelstein's latest creation, Shiver, sounds like a charming new addition to Halloween Town. What inspired this character, and what role does Shiver play in the story's themes?4. Trick-or-Treat Trio TroubleLock, Shock, and Barrel are fan favorites for their chaotic energy. How was it writing for those three troublemakers, especially as they head off to Christmas Town?5. Visual CollaborationEdu Menna's art brings a lot of gothic personality to the book. How did you two work together to strike the balance between Burton-esque atmosphere and the fun of a family-friendly adventure?6. Tone and AudienceThe series is described as “perfect for all ages.” How did you balance writing something that works for longtime fans of the film and younger readers discovering Nightmare Before Christmas for the first time?7. Franchise LegacyThe Shiver of Christmas Town follows Long Live the Pumpkin Queen: The Graphic Novel. How does this story build on that ongoing relationship between Dynamite and Disney's Nightmare Before Christmas world?8. The Magic of Halloween (and Christmas)Without giving too much away, what do you hope readers take away from this story about the magic—or mischief—of the holiday spirit?9. Character and Tone Your work often blends grit and introspection—how are you approaching Selina Kyle's duality as both a thief and protector in your Catwoman run, and what new sides of her character are you most excited to explore?
Nick Fuentes is a 27-year-old American influencer with a growing following. He believes America has been subverted by rich, powerful Jews. He was recently interviewed by Piers Morgan, where these views were put to him directly. During the exchange, Morgan referenced a video made by Times columnist Danny Finkelstein about his parents – a clip that has since led to Finkelstein being inundated with thousands of antisemitic messages.Danny Finkelstein joins The Spectator's political editor Tim Shipman to discuss the growth of antisemitism, and what it reveals about modern Britain, America and the internet. They explore the pressures of multiculturalism, what this all means for liberal democracy, and the fragility of the political and media ‘mainstream'.Become a Spectator subscriber today to access this podcast without adverts.

EL FINAL GUARDA EL SECRETO DE LOS SIGUIENTES ESPECIALES En este nuevo episodio de Rejugando, nos metemos de lleno en la tercera parte del especial de Kingdom Hearts, y lo hacemos a lo grande. Arrancamos repasando nuestro viaje por este tramo final del primer Kingdom Hearts, desgranando curiosidades, secretos, desarrollo, guiños y detalles que se nos quedaron grabados en la memoria, tanto para los fans como para los que llegan por primera vez a esta obra de culto de Square y Disney. Entramos directos al mundo de Agrabah, donde comentamos todo: – La llegada a la ciudad, la aparición de Jafar, la búsqueda de la cerradura del mundo y la importancia de Jasmine como princesa del corazón. – Los nuevos sincorazón, la verticalidad del mapa, las zonas ocultas, el backtracking y esa mezcla deliciosa entre aventura, diseño inteligente y referencias a los juegos clásicos de Aladdin. – La Cueva de las Maravillas, su diseño laberíntico, el combate contra el tigre y todo el tramo interno lleno de cofres, mecánicas y secretos. – El mítico enfrentamiento contra Jafar, sus dos fases, la lámpara, Iago… y cómo KH adapta perfectamente la estructura de la película. – El detallazo del llavero Tres Deseos, el cameo de la alfombra, el origen del diseño de Jafar, la curiosa historia del genio en doblaje, y ese mininivel con la alfombra que nos hizo sufrir más de lo esperado. Luego nos movemos hacia Monstro, el mundo de Pinocho, donde todo se vuelve más bizarro, más visceral : – La llegada sorpresa a la ballena. – Geppetto y Pinocho atrapados, la reaparición de Riku y el inicio de un conflicto emocional y narrativo clave para el resto del juego. – El combate con el “bicho-jaula”, la referencia clara a Final Fantasy IX y X, la exploración confusa y repetitiva dentro de Monstro y la relación simbiótica entre corazón, luz y pérdida. – Las idas y venidas entre Riku y Sora, y cómo este mundo marca un antes y un después en la tensión emocional del grupo. Desde ahí viajamos al siempre polémico y acuático mundo de Atlántica. – Contamos cómo funciona el tutorial bajo el agua, el filtro visual, la transformación de los protagonistas y lo que cuesta adaptarse al control submarino. – Conocemos a Ariel, al rey Tritón, y repasamos su papel en la trama, la aparición de Úrsula, toda la misión del tridente y el enfrentamiento final con ella en su forma gigante. – También respondemos a la gran pregunta que muchos oyentes nos habéis hecho: por qué Ariel no es princesa del corazón y Alicia sí. – Recorremos curiosidades de la película original, su historia literaria, diferencias brutales con el cuento de Andersen y cómo Square adaptó el mundo al lore del juego. – Y comentamos las conexiones con Final Fantasy IX, las habilidades y la mecánica de asignación utilizando puntos, recuperando ese sabor clásico del JRPG. Y entonces llega EL MOMENTO. Entramos en uno de los mundos más queridos de toda la saga: 🎃 Halloween Town – Pesadilla antes de Navidad Aquí nos volvemos locos hablando de: – Los diseños espectaculares de Sora, Donald y Goofy adaptados al estilo de Tim Burton. – La aparición de Jack Skellington y del Doctor Finkelstein. – La creación del corazón artificial, los niños problemáticos, la bañera viviente y la llegada a la Mansión de Oogie Boogie. – El combate tipo “Simón dice”, las mecánicas de la ruleta, el enfrentamiento final con Oogie gigante y toda la ambientación tétrica pero encantadora. – Las curiosidades reales de la película, el origen de Tim Burton en Disney, por qué se confunde tanto su papel en la película, el stop-motion original y cómo KH respeta la estética del film con nuevas texturas pensadas específicamente para este mundo. – Y cómo este mundo marcó el estándar para los mundos “estilizados” en la saga. Durante todo el programa vamos intercalando: – Informes de Ansem narrados como si fuesen documentos prohibidos. – Referencias al desarrollo real del juego, decisiones de Nomura y cambios en mundos como Tarzán, Pesadilla o Agrabah. – Detalles de doblaje, producción y rarezas del lore oficial. – Y nuestras clásicas anécdotas, bromas y momentos de caos absoluto. Al final, dejamos todo listo para encarar el tramo final del juego en el próximo episodio: Bastión Hueco, el clímax de Riku, Maléfica, las princesas del corazón y el enfrentamiento definitivo. Si eres fan de Kingdom Hearts, este episodio es un festín. Si no lo eres… cuidado, que aquí te haces fan por fuerza.

Wenn die Digitalisierung fehlschlägt: The London Ambulance System DisasterWas passiert, wenn Politik alles automatisieren will, ein starres Pflichtenheft ohne Tests verabschiedet und eine kleine Agentur in Rekordzeit ein hochkritisches System auf Visual Basic liefern soll? 1992 ging das Notrufsystem des London Ambulance Service mit einem Big Bang Rollout live. Ohne vollwertige Schulung, ohne belastbare Lasttests und ohne echten Backup-Plan. Das Ergebnis: Fehldispatches, endlose Wartezeiten, Ausnahmezustand in der Leitstelle und ein technischer Kollaps durch ein simples Memory Leak.In dieser Episode sprechen wir über den gesamten Projektverlauf vom London Ambulance System Disaster: Von der Zettelwirtschaft mit Förderband über ein überambitioniertes Automatisierungsvorhaben, NIH-Syndrom in der Ausschreibung, unrealistische Deadlines und Budgets, fehlendes Projektmanagement sowie Quality Assurance. Wir beleuchten die Live-Inbetriebnahme im Oktober 1992, GPS- und Statusprobleme in den Ambulanzen, die Exception-Flut auf den Monitoren, das ungetestete Failover und die Folgen für Personal, Vertrauen und Öffentlichkeit.Wir ordnen das Desaster für die Tech Community ein und ziehen Parallelen zu heute: AI- und Cloud-Rollouts ohne Fallback, Fix-forward statt Rollback, End-to-End- und Lasttests mit realistischen Szenarien, SRE-Praktiken, soziotechnische Systeme, UX in kritischen Workflows und die ethische Verantwortung von Entwicklerinnen. Außerdem: moderne Beispiele wie die Boeing 737 Max und Pandemie-Apps, die zeigen, wie zeitlos diese Learnings sind.Bonus: Das Kernsystem lief auf Visual Basic unter Windows 3. Klingt retro, war aber alles andere als ein Retro-Game.Unsere aktuellen Werbepartner findest du auf https://engineeringkiosk.dev/partnersDas schnelle Feedback zur Episode:
Rav Shai Finkelstein's Guest Shiur Klali, Parshat Vayetze 5786
Watch the Q&A session here: https://youtu.be/oQeUePfTrEQThe Royal Historical Society Colin Matthew Memorial Lecture.In April 1945, British forces liberated the Bergen-Belsen concentration camp and arrested its commandant, Josef Kramer. What followed was the first post-war trial for war crimes - a landmark event that captured the world's attention. Although later eclipsed by the Nuremberg Trials, the Belsen Trial marked a pivotal moment in confronting Nazi atrocities and establishing a framework for justice after the Holocaust.For Lord Daniel Finkelstein, the story of Belsen is deeply personal. Among those imprisoned and starved in the camp were his mother and grandmother - his grandmother did not survive. In this lecture, Lord Finkelstein will recount the story of the Belsen Trial, exploring how it brought the horrors of the concentration camps to light and how it continues to shape his understanding of law, justice, and moral responsibility.This lecture was recorded by Lord Daniel Finkelstein on the 4th of November 2025 at Barnard's Inn Hall, London.Daniel William Finkelstein, Baron Finkelstein, OBE (born 30 August 1962) is a British journalist, author, political advisor and politician. He is a former executive editor of The Times, where he remains a weekly political columnist, and has been a regular columnist at The Jewish Chronicle since 2010. Finkelstein was formerly an advisor to Prime Minister John Major and leader of the Conservative Party William Hague. Since 2013 he has sat as a Conservative Peer of the House of Lords.The transcript and downloadable versions of the lecture are available from the Gresham College website: https://www.gresham.ac.uk/watch-now/minor-criminalGresham College has offered free public lectures for over 400 years, thanks to the generosity of our supporters.

Joel Finkelstein discusses how the New York election of socialist Zohran Mamdani was influenced by "subnationalism," where foreign nations subvert democracy. Organizations associated with Islamist Maoist ideals and CCP assets (like Neville Roy Singham, who bankrolled a campaign hub) were central to mobilizing votes. On social media, especially Instagram and TikTok, content favorable to Mamdani was given "engineered virality," with over 50% of viral engagement coming from non-American users, suggesting organized foreign intercession. 1931

Aaron Alexander & John Humphrey react to The Nightmare Before Christmas (1993), the iconic stop-motion musical fantasy directed by Henry Selick (Coraline, James and the Giant Peach) and based on the original story and characters created by Tim Burton (Edward Scissorhands, Beetlejuice). Produced by Danny Elfman and Caroline Thompson, this beloved cult classic bridges the worlds of Halloween and Christmas in one unforgettable tale. The film follows Jack Skellington (voiced by Chris Sarandon – Fright Night, The Princess Bride, with singing voice by Danny Elfman – Oingo Boingo, The Simpsons) as the Pumpkin King of Halloween Town who grows bored with his spooky routine and stumbles upon the magic of Christmas Town. His attempt to take over Santa's holiday leads to chaos, self-discovery, and some of the most imaginative animation ever created. The cast also features Catherine O'Hara (Home Alone, Schitt's Creek) as Sally, the ragdoll with a heart of gold; William Hickey (Prizzi's Honor, The Jerky Boys) as Dr. Finkelstein; Glenn Shadix (Beetlejuice, Demolition Man) as Mayor of Halloween Town; and Ken Page (Dreamgirls, Cats) as the jazzy villain Oogie Boogie. Iconic and highly searched moments include Jack's haunting “What's This?” sequence, the kidnapping of Santa Claus, Oogie Boogie's musical showdown, and Sally's bittersweet “Sally's Song.” With its handcrafted stop-motion visuals, Elfman's timeless music, and a perfect blend of eerie and heartfelt, The Nightmare Before Christmas remains one of the most enduring animated films ever made — a masterpiece that captures both the spirit of Halloween and the joy of Christmas.

Episode Overview:In one of the most vulnerable and transformative conversations to date, Amy Wheeler sits down with Naomi Finkelstein, a yoga therapist and founder of The Sanctuary, to explore what it means to reclaim body autonomy, live in alignment with truth, and practice yoga from a foundation of ahiṁsā—non-harming—toward oneself.Naomi shares her deeply personal story of being sent to weight-loss camps as a teen, struggling with disordered eating for decades, and ultimately being diagnosed with anorexia at age 40—all while living in a larger body. She speaks honestly about how societal fatphobia masked her illness, and how yoga became both a site of harm and, ultimately, a path to healing.This conversation redefines what it means to "do yoga." It's not about performance. It's about presence, choice, and radical self-respect.Amy openly reflects on how this dialogue challenged her own internalized body narratives. This is not just a podcast episode; it's an invitation into deep nervous system work, self-reflection, and community reimagining. Topics Covered:Naomi's journey through fatphobia, eating disorder recovery, and reclaiming the word “fat” as a neutral descriptorThe harm caused by body-normative yoga spaces—and how to create truly inclusive onesTrauma-informed yoga through the lens of personal choice and body consentHow shifting your internal dialogue during practice changes the entire nervous system responseWhat it means to build a yoga community rooted in safety, autonomy, and interdependenceWhy health cannot be measured by weight alone—and how to practice viveka (discernment) in medical spacesA reframe of tapas and ahiṁsā that honors those recovering from disordered eatingKey Quotes:“I had to relearn what it meant to show up on my mat—from a place of choice, not punishment.” — Naomi Finkelstein“The sensation you're feeling right now? That's what healing feels like.” — Naomi Finkelstein“If yoga isn't here to bring us home to ourselves, what are we doing?” — Amy WheelerLearn More About Naomi:Naomi Finkelstein, C-IAYT, is a certified yoga therapist, trauma-informed educator, and founder of The Sanctuary, an inclusive online community supporting people in larger bodies through movement, mindfulness, and nervous system regulation. Her October courses include:Befriending the Body – An 8-week gentle yoga journey for those beginning or returning to practiceYoga Nidrā for Deep Rest – A 6-week guided series to support nervous system recovery Learn more at NaomiFinkelstein.com Listener Note:This episode may stir deep emotions, especially for those in eating disorder recovery or with long-term body image struggles. We invite you to listen slowly, take breaks, and notice your breath and sensations. Healing is nonlinear. Come back to the episode as needed.
"I think Rajiv's had this impact on the field by being able to see so far ahead. He's been able to raise a generation of leaders, that have come under his umbrella. He has within his perception, the kernel of a vision for the future of Hindu life that is more active, that is more action oriented, and that sets Hindus, and the rest of the world with the responsibility to be hands on about the problems they have to solve.

Check them out HERETranscript:Hey everyone, welcome back to another episode of the Peaceful Parenting Podcast.I've been noticing a lot in the media, and in the world around me, an enormous amount of tension around gender equity and ideology—as well as seeing concerning anti-woman rhetoric and actions. I've also heard from parents who are worried about the influencers and media their kids are being exposed to, and the really quite problematic ideas that come with that.That's why I asked Dr. Jo-Ann Finkelstein to come back on the podcast. She was on an earlier episode about her book Sexism and Sensibility—we'll link to that in the show notes if you haven't heard it yet. I wanted her to talk with me about what parents need to know about the manosphere and the womanosphere.You might not even have heard of the womanosphere—I just learned about it through Jo-Ann's work. And while I think most of us have heard of the manosphere, we might not be quite sure what it is. Jo-Ann gives us a great overview of the big ideas, terms, and key figures of these movements, as well as what to do if your child is already being influenced—and how to protect them from these, quite frankly, harmful ideas.If you know anyone who needs to hear this, please share it with them. And we'd really appreciate it if you'd rate and review the podcast on your favorite podcast player app—it really helps us reach more families and support more children and their caregivers.Let's meet Jo-Ann.Sarah: Hey, Jo-Ann, welcome back to the podcast.Jo-Ann: I am so glad to be back.Sarah: I've really been wanting to talk to you about today's topic because there's just so much going on in the world—and in North America right now—that feels so hard. Especially as a person who cares about people, and as a parent. I get your Substack and I love what you write about gender equity and sexism. Of course, your book Sexism and Sensibility was what you were on the podcast to talk about last time—it's a wonderful book. We'll link to that episode and to your book in the show notes.But before I dive in any further, tell us a little bit more about who you are and what you do.Jo-Ann: I'm a clinical psychologist and a writer. I wrote the book Sexism and Sensibility: Raising Empowered, Resilient Girls in the Modern World, as you just mentioned. I see all genders in my private practice, but I do see a lot of girls and women—and a lot of mothers and daughters.Since writing the book, and especially since the political changes we've seen in the United States, I've really expanded the areas I study, think about, and write about. So I'm glad to be here to talk about such an important topic—the manosphere and the womanosphere.Sarah: I'm so glad you're here to talk about it. My feeling is that we're going backwards in terms of gender equity and women's rights—rights that were hard-won over generations. We've seen the loss of reproductive rights in the U.S. and threats of even more restrictions. And it feels like it's become more acceptable again to share misogynistic viewpoints, especially with the rise of the manosphere and the womanosphere.Before we go further, can you explain a few things for anyone who might not know? What is misogyny?Jo-Ann: Misogyny literally means “hatred of women,” but it's often used more broadly to describe the sexism women experience. It can be an attitude or an action—something someone does to put down or harm someone who identifies as female.Sarah: Okay, and then the manosphere and the womanosphere—or femosphere, as you said it's sometimes called.Jo-Ann: Yes, though there are slight differences between the womanosphere and femosphere. But basically, the manosphere is a diverse collection of websites, blogs, and online forums that promote masculinity, misogyny, and opposition to feminism.In a world where two-thirds of young men say that nobody really knows them—and where there's no clear agreement on what a “good man” looks like or how to become one—it creates the perfect conditions for men to look for connection online, often through the manosphere.This network swoops in to provide what feels like clear messaging about gender roles and relationships—and it promotes the belief that for women to advance, men have to lose something.Sarah: When I was reading about it yesterday to prepare for this, one thing that stood out was that a lot of young men don't necessarily encounter the overt anti-woman content right away. It often starts with fitness advice, or how to talk to girls—kind of self-improvement content. The anti-woman message is the undercurrent, but it's still there.Jo-Ann: Exactly. They swoop in with these simple explanations of how to be a man—and they groom these boys in a very slow-drip way. The scary messages are mixed in with talk about gaming, relationships, mental health, wellbeing, getting rich, and getting enough protein.The misogyny starts as memes or jokes—things that can be brushed off as humor or “locker room talk.” But over time, algorithm pulsl them further down the rabbit hole, toward deeper messages about being victimized by society.You can imagine a lonely, rejected boy sitting at his computer thinking, “Yeah, that's not fair—I haven't done anything wrong. The system is rigged against me. I'm being victimized.” It's a very appealing message for someone who feels like a loser—to reframe himself as an underdog, downtrodden by a world that's unfair to him.Sarah: Do you think that connects to the Me Too movement? Was the rise of the manosphere a response to that, or did it start earlier?Jo-Ann: I don't know if there's a direct line, but yes—I write a lot about backlash. Me Too was a real moment for women to speak up and have their voices heard, to talk about the things in our culture that are frightening, violent, and deeply unfair.Whenever there's progress, there's backlash. As women began to be heard and things started to change, it felt threatening to some men. That's part of what fuels the manosphere.And just to clarify for your listeners—kids don't call it “the manosphere.” Adults do. The kids think that term is totally cringe.Sarah: Right, your teenager's not going to respond if you say, “Who do you follow in the manosphere?” They'll be like, “What?”Jo-Ann: Exactly.Sarah: But I have had a friend—a progressive dad—reach out to say, “My 15-year-old son loves Andrew Tate. What do I do?” And Andrew Tate seems like one of the biggest figures in the manosphere.Jo-Ann: Yes, Andrew Tate is huge—and very toxic. He was charged with sex trafficking and sexual assault in Romania and London, and Trump is thought to have even helped bring him back to the U.S. so he couldn't be tried.Sarah: Let's talk a bit about the femosphere, but before that, I just want to say—my 18-year-old daughter started working in restaurants this year, and as much as it feels like we're going backwards in some ways, I can see progress too. When I was her age, there were things that were totally acceptable—especially in restaurant culture—that no one would ever do now, at least not openly.And I see in my kids' generation this awareness and confidence—when someone says or does something inappropriate, they call it out right away.Jo-Ann: Yes, we don't want to be too depressing—there has been real progress. I wouldn't say those things never happen anymore, but maybe they happen less, and there's much more awareness around them.Sarah: I think maybe part of the rise of the manosphere is that feeling among some men that the ground has shifted under them. There was this celebrity who got “canceled” for behavior that would have been considered normal when I was a teenager, and I think a lot of men who grew up with that were like, “Wait—that's just how it's always been.”Jo-Ann: Exactly. That used to be part of masculinity—and now you're saying they can't do that. So they ask, “What is masculinity?” And women are saying, “Just behave well. Don't be a creep.” And they're like, “Wait—I thought that was being a man.” It's confusing.We have to listen to boys, take them seriously, and teach them well.Sarah: Thank you for saying that—much more eloquently than I did. Okay, so what's the womanosphere?Jo-Ann: Before we go on, I want to add that some of the other big manosphere influencers are people like Logan Paul and the Nelk Boys—who, by the way, are from Canada originally. They've had a huge influence on boys and even on the U.S. election outcomes.Sarah: I'd never even heard of them—thank you.Jo-Ann: So, the womanosphere includes people like Brett Cooper and Candace Owens. It's helpful to know what to look out for.If the manosphere is toxic masculinity dressed up as philosophy, then the womanosphere is misogyny dressed up in milkmaid clothing.Sarah: Mm-hmm.Jo-Ann: It looks soft, harmless, even aspirational—cottagecore filters, tradwife influencers with gorgeous homes and perfectly dressed kids. But beneath that aesthetic is a push for women to shrink themselves, to submit to their husbands, and to trade ambition for dependency.It preys on the very real struggles women face. But instead of fighting for systemic change—like paid leave, affordable childcare, or equal partnership—it sells women this glossy rewind to the days when women were expected to find fulfillment only through being a wife and mother, taking on all the domestic labor with a smile.If you're a woman suffering, —or a girl who sees your mom — suffering under the weight of everything she does, the message “Just let him take care of you” can sound pretty appealing.Sarah: It must also be a direct response to how hard it is for women to juggle it all. I was listening to an interview with Elizabeth Warren, and she talked about how, as a young mother, her biggest struggle was finding reliable, affordable childcare. Then her daughter's biggest struggle was the same thing—and now her granddaughter's is too.And I recently listened to Ketanji Brown Jackson's memoir, where she talked about crying on the kitchen floor because she didn't know how she could keep working and still care for her kids, even with two working parents.So when it all feels overwhelming, that romanticized domestic ideal must look really appealing.Jo-Ann: Absolutely. Working and raising kids—it's exhausting. I look back and don't know how I survived those years. None of us can be the moms we want to be when we're that tired and still fighting for equality at home.So yes, when you see a woman on the internet who looks like she has it all together, you think, “I want that.”Sarah: Yeah. And I think it can be even darker than just the “make your own bread and stay home” message—there's also the undercurrent of submission, of not being an equal partner.Jo-Ann: Oh yes. There's a lot about submitting to your husband. The goal seems to be: if we glorify femininity and motherhood enough, women will stop demanding things like birth control and abortion access. They'll become too overwhelmed, overburdened, and outnumbered to organize against a culture built to serve men's needs at women's expense.I really do think this comes from a deep fear—among men in power—of women's power. A fear that they'll lose what they've long believed is their birthright.Sarah: Mm-hmm.Jo-Ann: Their birthright of power, head of household status, sex—all the things they've been raised to believe they're entitled to.Sarah: Right? So, where does it make sense to go to next in our conversation here? I mean, I had some anecdotes that I've shared a couple of along the way, but one thing that made me think about this was watching this documentary—have you seen the Lilith Fair documentary on Netflix?Jo-Ann: No, I haven't.Sarah: It was really good.Jo-Ann: I've heard it's really good.Sarah: It was really good. Why Sarah McLachlan organized Lilith Fair was because she would go to a radio station, and they'd be like, “Oh, we really like your music, but we already have a woman on this week—we're playing Tracy Chapman.” There was just so much sexism in the music industry, right? There wasn't room for more than one woman at a time. So she was like, “I'm going to do a whole festival with only women.” And it was enormously successful.Then the next weekend, I went to a three-day music festival, and I started counting how many women were on stage. I had to stop because it was so depressing. It's still the same. It's a little off-topic from the womanosphere and manosphere, but sometimes I just feel so helpless. Like, what's the point in all of this? So what can we do as parents?Jo-Ann: Before we get into the how-to, I just want parents to get a sense of what their kids are hearing. They're hearing the same false statistics over and over again—like “false rape allegations are very common.” They hear that all the time.So as a woman, you're saying, “I'm counting these people on stage, and there are very few women.” But they're hearing the opposite. They're hearing, “Women are taking over,” that “men are losing out,” that “they're being rejected because 80% of women only date 20% of men,” which is false. They hear conspiracy theories that feminists want to destroy white men, who are supposedly the real victims of society.So your son is online, finding this community of guys who feel the same way he does—and they're offering him belonging he may not have felt before. These are ready-made friends. And like you said, it's this drip, this undercurrent. When they start to realize that these men are actually calling for the rape and destruction of women, it doesn't sound that bad anymore because they've been so overwhelmed by these messages. It starts to sound normal—maybe even righteous—to incite hatred toward girls and women.It doesn't just harm women—it harms boys and men too, because it promotes unrealistic and extreme measures to “improve” their social standing. For example, “looksmaxing”—which can mean anything from hygiene tips and fitness routines to extreme dietary restrictions, cosmetic surgery, or steroid use.Sarah: Mm-hmm.Jo-Ann: So as parents, we have to help boys integrate the idea of themselves as caring, emotionally connected, cooperative people—to see those qualities as aspirational, not emasculating.Sarah: Mm-hmm.Jo-Ann: For the good of everybody. That's a basic value that I'm sure many of your listeners already hold, but we have to help boys understand that those are human qualities, not feminine ones. Because at the root of sexism is the rejection of the feminine.Sarah: The people listening to my podcast already care about connection, but I just want to call out—having raised two boys—don't listen to anyone who tells you they need you less than your girls might, or that they're not as bothered by things. They still need connection, care, and intimacy with their families just as much as girls do.Jo-Ann: And they need it within friendships too. But when they seek it out, they're called “soy boys” or “white knights.” If they're seen as subservient to women in any way, or having needs that women have, they get called derogatory names.Sarah: Okay. So, onto the how-to—what would you say to my friend whose 15-year-old loves Andrew Tate?Jo-Ann: The first thing I'd say is don't panic. Be curious. Really listen without jumping to react, even if what they say is shocking or upsetting—because that will just push them away.I went through this with my son. It wasn't extreme, but he was listening to a lot of those streamers. Thankfully, he was bringing some of this stuff to us, kind of with bravado. Inside, I'd feel disgusted or angry, but I kept my poker face and really listened.We're lucky—he grew up with parents who think critically about these things, and in a liberal extended family, so he was less likely to go down that road. But he really could have. He's also very skeptical. He'd notice when some streamers shifted politically—from liberal to very conservative—and he'd say, “These people are getting paid.”So we really want to help our kids develop critical media literacy.Engaging online with your kid can be a natural way to start conversations about what they're exposed to. I talk about this in my book—it can be broken down into four parts.Sarah: Sure.Jo-Ann: The first one is to promote skeptical thinking. Teach your kids to question information they see online. Encourage them to consider the source and the creator's intentions. For example, they can ask, “Why is this person telling me this? What are they trying to sell me?”The second is to explain the origins of online content. Teach them that many influencers monetize controversy. They use shock value, misinformation, or skewed statistics to get views—and their advice often lacks expertise. You can say, “These guys aren't experts. I wonder where they're getting their information. Let's look up the real statistics.”Third, teach them that these ideas aren't just internet fads—they're tied to larger political goals, like restricting reproductive rights, pushing “hyper-motherhood,” and keeping women too overburdened to organize.Also, teach them how “anti-victim” language reframes systemic issues as personal failures. “It's not sexism—it's your mindset.”Sarah: Right.Jo-Ann: That's especially true for girls, because it turns structural inequality into an individual woman's problem to fix.Sarah: Right—like, “You're just not working hard enough,” or “You don't believe in yourself.”Jo-Ann: Exactly. Or, “It was just a joke. Stop being so sensitive.” It's the same old stuff. We want them to understand that real liberation isn't just “dealing with the cards you're dealt.”Because in the womanosphere, you'll hear, “Men are just naturally stronger and need to lead—and if you let them, everything will be fine.” And in the femosphere, it's “Men are trash; you've got to game the system, use them for money.” We want girls to see that real liberation is the opposite—it's about naming injustice, demanding systemic change, and building communities of women.The fourth part is to debunk pseudoscience. Teach kids to recognize misinformation—distorted statistics or pseudoscientific gender theories—and help them identify reputable sources. Give them solid information about mental health and relationships.And finally, talk openly about and challenge gender stereotypes. Point out the endless denigration of girls and women in movies, TV shows, and other media. Help them see that stereotypes limit everyone and reinforce the rigid beliefs of those online echo chambers.Sarah: Mm-hmm.Jo-Ann: I give a lot of examples of this in Sexism and Sensibility—common sexist themes in media that parents can use to reach their kids. Of course, you don't want to “yuck their yum” too much, or they'll tune you out. Ask open-ended questions, share your thoughts, and encourage reflection—but don't be heavy-handed, or you'll lose them.Sarah: Yeah, that's super important. Because if you go too hard, they'll just go underground. They won't tell you what they're following or listening to, and you'll have even less ability to help them think critically about it.Where do you stand on social media guidelines? Do you think people are right to say “no social media until 16”?Jo-Ann: I'm not a social media expert, but I don't think waiting until 16 is realistic. I really believe “mentor, not monitor” is the more effective way—because kids will always find ways around the rules.Of course, when they're young, the longer you can delay Snapchat, Instagram, and TikTok, the better. But that's how teens find community and connect. It's not all bad. Boys, for example, do find real communities online—on Discord, for instance—it's just which communities they find that's the problem. So yes, mentor, not monitor.Sarah: “Mentor, not monitor.” I like that. That's helpful.Jo-Ann: Credit to Devorah Heitner.Sarah: I was going to say! Aren't you friends with Devorah Heitner? I've heard her say that. She's also been on the podcast, and we'll link to that episode in the show notes.So—what should I have asked you about that I haven't?Jo-Ann: Maybe some of the terminology. Do parents know what “red-pilling” is?Sarah: Tell us.Jo-Ann: It's basically the manosphere's core philosophy. It comes from The Matrix and means “waking up” to feminism's supposed oppression of men. The “blue pill” represents ignorance—someone who doesn't realize men are being oppressed. The “black pill” is used by incels, meaning they've accepted their “terminal celibacy.”Maybe I should explain who the different groups of the manosphere are.An incel believes men are entitled to sex but aren't getting it because women deny them—and that women should be punished for that.Then there are Pickup Artists—this is a $100 million global industry led by men who boast about rape and believe it should be legalized on public property. They train men to harass and assault women.Then there are Men's Rights Activists. They claim to care about men's issues, but in practice, they focus on attacking women and dismantling feminism—bringing lawsuits to defund sexual violence services or weaken women's protections.And finally, there's “Men Going Their Own Way” (MGTOW)—men who believe women are so toxic they have to cut them out of their lives altogether.Sarah: Wow. This is dark stuff.Jo-Ann: It really is.Sarah: It reminds me of that idea that there's only one pie—if other people get rights, it takes away from yours.Jo-Ann: Exactly. But I believe we can help boys and men see that it's not a limited pie. They may have to give something up, but they also gain something—relationships, connection, emotional fulfillment.Care work in this culture is so demeaned that men avoid it—but it's also where so much of women's connection comes from. Many men's deathbed regrets are about not having the relationships they wanted.So yes, as women take on more public work, men will have to take on more private work—not more overall, but more equally—and they'll also gain. Yes, they might have to wash the toilet, but they'll get more time with their kids, more friendships, more access to their own emotions.Sarah: I remember when our first son was born, my husband hadn't really taken care of babies before, and I had. I was much more comfortable changing diapers, all that. His first instinct was, “You do that—you're better at it.” And I said, “This is where all the connection happens—in the caregiving. If you miss out on that, you'll miss out on the connection.”He was like, “Oh, okay.” I think he was just nervous.Jo-Ann: What a beautiful thing to say to him. That's so impactful.Sarah: Yeah, because connection was important to him—he wanted that bond with our baby, but he didn't realize how much of it comes through caregiving.Jo-Ann: Exactly. And you're reminding me of a statistic: people say women are more nurturing, but research shows proximity changes hormones. When men spend more time caregiving, their “nurturing” hormones increase too.Sarah: I've read that! It's so cool. And it feels good too, right? The oxytocin.Jo-Ann: Yes, exactly.Sarah: Thank you so much. I think this will be really helpful for parents to understand what their kids are being exposed to.Jo-Ann: My pleasure. I'm so glad you're talking about this—it's so important.Sarah: I encourage everyone to check out your Substack and your book. We'll link to both in the show notes. Before I let you go, I ask all my guests this: if you could go back in time to your younger parent self, what advice would you give yourself?Jo-Ann: Oh boy, so much. I'd tell myself not to get caught up in the competitive stuff. At the time, I thought I wasn't, but I was. I told myself I wasn't a good enough mother because I wasn't baking endless banana bread like my mom did, or because my house wasn't as neat as someone else's. But that's just culture's way of undermining women and making motherhood a competitive sport—when really, we all just need to have each other's backs.Sarah: Love that. Thank you so much, Jo-Ann, for coming on. What's the best place for folks to find you?Jo-Ann: My website is jo-annfinkelstein.com. My Substack is Raising Her Voice—jo-annfinkelstein.substack.com—and I'm also on Instagram and TikTok at jo-annfinkelstein.phd.Sarah: Great. We'll link to all those in the show notes.

Judd Finkelstein - known as The Fink, which is also the name of his award winning cocktail bar in Napa Valley - has been a drinks scholar from an early age, digging up classic recipes to try out on friends when they were still more about beer bongs. He even formed the Friends of Ardent Mixology (F.O.A.M.) decades ago, creating a community of like minded folks who enjoyed learning about all things spirit related. And he was a radio DJ by the tender age of 17! There are a lot of fun stories for you in this one, and he selected some great music for you to drink with as well: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/0AP6BbezcRO9KGf3qYgYKI?si=l3fqIvfxSUmnd8cOA7snHQ
Welcome to your weekly UAS News Update. We have four stories for you this week: a new NDAA-compliant drone from Angel Aerial, a drone pilot who was sentenced for flying over Cape Canaveral, a drone captured a rescue in North Carolina, and Amazon has revealed a new safety system for its delivery drones.First up, Ohio-based Angel Aerial Systems has released a new NDAA-compliant tricopter called the Trio Scout. Its big claim to fame is a 100-minute hover time. The Trio Scout weighs 5.5 pounds, including its battery. The payload is a dual EO/thermal gimbal, featuring a 1280x720 electro-optical camera with 20x optical and 2x digital zoom for a total of 40x zoom. The thermal camera is a 640x480 sensor with 4x digital zoom. The company claims a max transmission distance of 1.86 miles and a wind tolerance of 20 mph with gusts up to 30 mph. The price is listed at $34,999 with a 10-week lead time. Now, the 100-minute flight time is from real-world tests, not theoretical flight time. The company is transparent that in warmer conditions, like 120 degrees Fahrenheit at 5,000 feet, you're looking at about 88 minutes and in the extreme cold, that can drop to 65 minutes.Next up, a 71-year-old Canadian drone pilot, Xiao Guang Pan, has been sentenced for illegally flying his drone over Cape Canaveral Space Force Base in Florida. He pleaded guilty to unlawfully photographing defense installations and received 12 months of probation before being deported back to Canada.According to court records, in January of this year, NASA officials detected a drone near the base. Deputies found Pan operating a DJI Mavic 3 Pro from a nearby parking lot. He had reportedly been flying in the area for at least three consecutive days. While he was flying in Class D airspace, he was right on the edge of restricted areas. His drone captured 56 images and two videos of sensitive infrastructure.When questioned, Pan claimed he was just a tourist photographing cruise ships and sunrises and that he hadn't received any airspace warnings. However, a forensic analysis of his devices told a very different story. Investigators found over 1,900 files, including 243 images and 13 videos of the base. More importantly, the drone's data logs showed that the DJI system had issued multiple geofencing and airspace warnings.And in our third story this week, incredible drone footage has been released showing the rescue of a pilot from a plane that crashed into the ocean off Oak Island, North Carolina. On August 2nd, a single-engine plane piloted by Mark Finkelstein suffered an engine failure, forcing him to ditch the aircraft in the ocean. Luckily, the Oak Island Beach Safety Unit was nearby and responded immediately. They launched a drone, which provided a crystal-clear, stable overhead view of the entire scene. You can see the rescuers surrounding the cockpit and pulling Finkelstein out feet-first through the windshield. The entire extraction took less than 30 seconds once they reached him. He walked away with only a minor cut.Lastly, Amazon is rolling out a new safety feature for its delivery drones. The new tech is called "Safe Contingent Landings," or SCL. It's a sophisticated "Plan B" for the drone if it detects a major problem like a system malfunction or severe weather. Instead of just falling or making a risky return flight, the drone can autonomously scan the ground in real-time, build a 3D map, and find a safe spot to land, avoiding people, animals, and cars. http://dronexl.co/2025/09/02/drone-captures-rescue-pilot-from-plane/https://dronexl.co/2025/09/02/amazon-drones-now-have-plan-b/https://dronexl.co/2025/08/28/angel-aerials-trio-scout-drone-ndaa/https://dronexl.co/2025/08/28/drone-pilot-sentenced-cape-canaveral-space-force-base/

David Finkelstein says the greatest strength in the economy is in the technology sector, driven by A.I. innovation and productivity enhancements. However, he sees the biggest risks on the fiscal side, citing the country's unsustainable level of debt and interest burden. Finkelstein believes tariffs will average in the low double digits, down from 18% previously, and expects the market to become desensitized to trade uncertainty. On the Fed, he predicts no rate cuts until the fourth quarter, when the employment mandate takes center stage due to a slowing economy and tariff-related uncertainty.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.

Academic and political scientist Norman Finkelstein clashed with Israeli historian Benny Morris during a recent appearance on Piers Morgan's television program. Specifically, Morris kept interrupting and accusing Finkelstein of lying as he tried to share the results of a recent Penn State University poll showing that majorities of Israelis support genocide in Gaza and a substantial majority support ethnic cleansing. Guest host Keaton Weiss and Americans' Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss Finkelstein comparing Morris to a Holocaust denier. Plus segments on Donald Trump accusing Vladimir Putin of going “crazy” and Israeli troops firing on crowds of starving Gazans desperately crowding into designated relief zones.
Sydney Finkelstein, a professor of management at the Tuck School of Business at Dartmouth College, encourages leaders to approach their direct reports like teachers. As Finkelstein explains, being a teacher-leader means continually meeting face to face with employees to communicate lessons about professionalism, points of craft, and life. He says it's easy to try and that teaching is one of the best ways to motivate people and improve their performance. Finkelstein is the author of “The Best Leaders Are Great Teachers” in the January–February 2018 issue of Harvard Business Review.

Girls are often sent messages that can leave them feeling unseen, unheard, and boxed in by societal expectations. How can we as parents help them challenge these limiting narratives and grow into their full potential?

Including a simple yet powerful hack for challenging gender roles when reading children's books. - Actionable advice for fostering resilience and confidence in girls, as well as how to teach boys to work alongside girls to combat toxic masculinity.
