China's military is not a real army - it's the armed wing of the Chinese Communist Party. Ideology is paramount and corruption is endemic. Plus, the People's Liberation Army hasn't fought a war since 1979. Xi Jinping calls it “the peace disease”. In episode two of this three-part series, Venetia Rainey looks at the PLA's weaknesses and how the Chinese president Xi is trying to fix them, from endless purges of top generals to a specially built training centre in Mongolia and live-fire drills around Taiwan. This series on China's military dives into the strengths and weaknesses of China's military and its remarkable transformation over the last few decades from obsolete to world-class.How significant is China's military buildup? What does Xi Jinping's ongoing purge mean for the People's Liberation Army? And how likely is an invasion of Taiwan in the next few years? As the US pivots to the Indo-Pacific and the threat of a truly global war looms, understanding the evolving role of China's military on the world stage has never been more important.Listen to episode one of this series on China's military here.

You've heard the lie: "You'll do great after the military. Companies are lining up to hire vets." But what if that's exactly what's breaking us? Jason Anderson spent 20 years in the Air Force, leading international missions, and closing out his career at the Pentagon. He was ready for the civilian world, or so he thought. What followed was years of hidden anxiety, 3 a.m. panic, and strained family dynamics, all while climbing the corporate ladder. On the outside, he looked successful. Inside, he was unraveling. In this eye-opening conversation, Jason dismantles the flawed assumptions behind the military's Transition Assistance Program and reveals the hidden link between poorly executed transitions and veteran mental health crises. He introduces the Modern Military Transition Framework, an approach built by veterans, for veterans, that finally treats post-service life as a whole new operating environment, not just a career move. Whether you're still serving, just got out, or 10 years post-military and still feel like something's off, this episode is your wake-up call and your blueprint for doing it better.

The crew unpacks the chilling story of TJ Hoover, whose organs were nearly harvested while he was conscious—sparking outrage and fear across social media.

This week we're talking about the new book, “Forged in Chaos: A Warrior's Origin Story” by Army Special Operations veteran Tyler Grey. Tyler was the epitome of the modern warrior, a Delta Force operator, master of counterterrorism. He hunted the worst bullies on the world's playground—high-value targets, bomb makers, warlords—executing covert missions that never made the news- until one mission in Sadr City, Iraq changed everything.” On what should've been a routine raid, an explosion ripped through the home shattering his arm and worse; it fractured his identity. Grey describes “chaos addiction” and how most combat veterans share a similar past, which support his groundbreaking LTSD theory, “Lack of Traumatic Stress Disorder”. We hear how this theory explains why Grey managed his mental health crisis with drugs, sex and toxic relationships. We also examine two traits common among combat vets, which he calls “The Warrior and Destroyer”. Grey also revealed serious flaws behind modern medicine's current PTSD diagnosis, and how anyone who has experienced trauma can learn from his fight to conquer the battle within. This book doesn't challenge the narrative; it destroys it, laying bare the cost of being forged in chaos.

Some evolutionists claim that humans have an unsound spine because we evolved from an animal that walked on 4 legs, and as a result we experience back many problems.  We interview an expert on human physiology, Lt. commander Luke Scripture, to get his perspective on the issue.

In this powerful episode, Philip Lindholm sits down with Ginny Burton—a former addict, felon, and now one of the nation's most sought-after voices on recovery and homelessness.Ginny's life story reads like fiction: introduced to drugs by her mother at just seven years old, she spent decades addicted, homeless, and entangled in crime. By the age of 40, she had committed 17 felonies and was homelessness on the streets of Seattle. But against all odds, she transformed her life—graduating from the University of Washington as a Truman Scholar and dedicating herself to helping others overcome the same cycles she once lived.Episode Highlights:A Life Reclaimed:Ginny shares the raw details of her journey from addiction and homelessness to education, activism, and public service. Her story is a testament to human resilience and the power of second chances.The Reality of Homelessness:Ginny describes what it's really like to live on the streets—especially as a woman—and why addiction so often leads to homelessness. She challenges common myths, including the idea that homelessness is primarily about lack of affordable housing.The Flaws in Our System: We explore why current social services often fail the people they are meant to help. Ginny critiques the "harm reduction" model, arguing that we are enabling addiction rather than offering real recovery. She advocates for a system that prioritizes freedom from addiction, not management of it.Addiction and Relationships: Ginny discusses how addiction destroys trust, erodes love, and isolates individuals from their communities. Her personal reflections provide invaluable insight for anyone with a loved one struggling with substance use.A New Approach to Treatment:From medication-assisted treatment to the debate over involuntary commitment, Ginny offers a provocative but compassionate roadmap for how to truly help those trapped in addiction—starting with accountability, structure, and real rehabilitation.Policy and Lived Experience:Ginny calls for system leaders to include the voices of people with lived experience at the decision-making table—not just as token participants, but as primary leaders shaping policy.A Call to Action:At the heart of Ginny's message is this: compassion is not about making people comfortable in their misery—it's about helping them build lives worth living.Takeaways:This episode is essential listening for policymakers, service providers, and anyone concerned about homelessness, addiction, and recovery. Ginny Burton's hard-earned wisdom offers a new vision for public policy—one rooted in personal accountability, love, and lasting change.Listen and subscribe to the podcast:Spotify: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/the-informed-citizenApple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-informed-citizen/id1738680188Connect with us:Website: https://theinformedcitizen.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/drphiliplindholm/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/drphiliplindholmYouTube Playlist: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLdscEVf-gjkiNh9YK-0yYiTZN7usLZ4CRCredits:Produced in partnership with Terry Wise & AssociatesMusic: Sound and Vision, “This Party Bussin”Editing & Post-Production: Tony Wise at Wise VideographyThis podcast is for informational purposes only and not professional advice.

Why are some religious people so obnoxious? I hear this question often. It's no wonder religion gets at times a bad rap. And it does seem strange, doesn't it? If faith is meant to elevate us, shouldn't it make us more refined, sensitive, kind, and gentle?Yet time and again, we see people—sometimes in the very name of religion—acting in ways that are anything but inspiring. Of course, no one is perfect. But this is a serious issue we can't ignore.Religion has shaped civilization for millennia and still plays a central role in countless lives. Yet religion and faith, like all beautiful and powerful experiences, can be abused and distorted by flawed human beings, which in turn has caused so many to have a deep distrust of religion—and of religious people. Some even carry profound wounds—what we now call religious trauma. What we need to learn is how not to throw out the baby with the bathwater.Please join Rabbi Simon Jacobson for an honest, vital conversation to understand why religion, which should bring light, so often casts a shadow. And more importantly—how we can move past the pain, discard our toxic experiences and reclaim our spiritual integrity and rebuild a healthy faith that heals instead of harms.

Evolutionists suggest that our knees are poorly designed (we shouldn't have to endure football injuries; tongue-in-cheek.  And pain in childbirth is another inexplicable flaw. 

BT expresses significant concern over the New York Mets' current state, arguing that their issues are far more severe than those of the Yankees. He highlights the team's horrendous play over the past two weeks, particularly emphasizing the glaring problems with their pitching staff, which he dismisses as "stiffs" who can't be expected to win. While acknowledging some potential for improvement if key players like Minaya, Senga, Alvarez, and Vientos return and perform well, he warns that if these contingencies don't materialize, the Mets risk missing the playoffs entirely due to their inability to consistently win with their current roster.

Kenny joins with a list of teams that can win the Super Bowl and their biggest flaws.

What if the key to transformation isn't finding your "why" but discovering your "because"? Pastor Keion Henderson delivers this game-changing perspective in an unforgettable conversation that cuts straight to the core of authentic leadership and personal growth. "I do it because I was born to," Pastor Keion reveals, sharing how this simple yet profound realization shaped his leadership journey. Unlike your "why" (your family, friends, community), your "because" is the divine purpose encoded in your very design—it's what you're built for, just as planes are built to fly and cars to drive. This distinction becomes a foundation for living with greater authenticity and confidence, even through doubt and struggle. The conversation takes a powerful turn when addressing the perfectionism that plagues so many high-achievers. Pastor Keion brilliantly articulates the battle between ego and effectiveness: "The ego says you would have been better if you said what you thought. Effective says you said what you said and it worked." This liberating perspective helps leaders trust that what emerges from a prepared soul is enough—preparation doesn't guarantee perfection, but it enables impact. Most revolutionary is Pastor Keion's insight that "problems can't be solved by the same mindset that created them"—a principle that host Mick credits with quadrupling his business. This philosophy, explored in Pastor Keyon's book "The Shift," challenges listeners to continually evolve their thinking, recognizing that what brought you to your current level won't take you to the next one. The conversation also previews his newest book "Lazy Love," which examines how our past experiences shape our capacity to love effectively. Whether you're looking to transform your business, improve your relationships, or discover your divine purpose, this episode provides practical wisdom for embracing imperfection, shifting mindsets, and recognizing that your greatest impact might come not just from your successes but from how you've navigated your failures. Your "because" is waiting to be unleashed—and it might just be your greatest superpower.

In this unpredictable After Hours episode of The Underground Lounge, things get personal, hilarious, and a little chaotic, just the way we like it. Holly opens with a story about pool parties gone wrong, including getting thrown in fully dressed and nearly drowning with her heels on. Spank and Lou join the mix, with Lou checking in remotely from Atlanta and celebrating the anniversary of his NBA draft. The gang dishes out real advice for young athletes entering the league and touches on the importance of financial literacy, choosing the right circle, and avoiding Instagram models.From there, the conversation spirals, in the best way. Holly gets deep and vulnerable, asking the guys what non-physical traits make a woman more attractive. What follows is a candid back-and-forth about femininity, communication styles, the art of cooking for your man, and why sometimes saying less can be more. Lou and Spank weigh in with real game, and Holly admits she might be a little “wordy,” but she's working on it.The conversation shifts to cheating, who does it more, who hides it better, and why the real MVPs might be the ones who never get caught. Holly gets honest about past mistakes, growth, and how her dad set the standard high when it comes to love and relationships. The group also explores how childhood, divorce, and strong parental figures shape how people love (or don't).Then, it's club confession time. From getting kicked out of clubs for fighting, bottle mishaps, and wild bathroom run-ins, to exes dragging people out mid-swag-surf, no one is safe from the stories flying around the Lounge. Spank and Lou drop gems about what makes a woman stand out in a sea of bottle girls and party vibes, while Holly reminds everyone that sometimes being the “funny homegirl” still comes with smoke.By the end, it's part comedy, part therapy, and all vibes, with the crew laughing at their pasts, unpacking their truths, and giving just enough messy detail to keep things spicy. This episode is for anyone who's ever been in love, been thrown out of a club, or both, sometimes on the same night.

“Those moments of connection when you can have them with people who seem so different from you on the outside, I really do think that it braids a level of connectiveness and empathy, and it is much harder to harden your heart.” — Gayle FormanWhat does it mean to rise to the occasion, not once, but over and over again? Sometimes it means reckoning with grief. Other times it means stumbling forward, messing up, and trying again. And sometimes it means simply showing up, imperfect, but still trying to be better.Gayle Forman is the bestselling author of If I Stay, Frankie & Bug, Not Nothing, Afterlife and more. Whether it's Mia in If I Stay, Alex in Not Nothing, or Amber in Afterlife, her characters often walk a jagged path toward healing, falling short, trying again, and inching closer to the people they hope to become.In this episode, Gayle talks about growing up as a self-described “odd duck,” the Ramona books that shaped her childhood and parenting, and the formative years she spent traveling solo. She opens up about why she is so drawn to flawed characters and how fiction became a way to survive grief and stay connected to the people she has lost.***For her reading challenge, Flawed, Gayle is going to bat for the prickly, messy, not-here-to-be-liked protagonists. She points out that kids are used to reading about heroes, but it can be just as powerful, maybe even more so, to read about characters who fall short and grow anyway. Peruse selected titles and Gayle's full reading challenge for free at thereadingculturepod.com/gayle-forman.This week's Beanstack Featured Librarian is Lori Shallio, media specialist at Heritage Intermediate School in Middlebury, Indiana.
