This is Part Two of Teens and Screens, and it's the counterweight. Last episode, Dr. Johann D'Souza made the case for keeping toxic screens out of your teenager's hands entirely. Today I'm joined again by Dr. Will Dobud — social worker, researcher, and co-author of Kids These Days — who thinks the story we tell ourselves about phones and youth mental health is far bigger than the evidence behind it.I open by naming my own bias: I work with the families where it went wrong. Porn addiction, gaming addiction, failure to launch, daughters pulled into dark corners of social media. Will names his: he's oppositional by temperament, and he wrote a book making fun of how adults talk about kids.We get into why the meta-analytic effects between screen use and youth mental health are so small they're arguably not worth publishing, what a third variable does to correlational data, and why Australia's social media ban is failing six months in. I push back repeatedly — on whether "do what feels right" is useful advice to parents who don't know what modern pornography even is, on the candy-bin problem of unregulated access, and on whether calling the phone a symptom of family dysfunction slides into blaming parents.Then Will gets on his soapbox about school, and the conversation turns somewhere I didn't expect: youth self-harm and ER data that tracks the school calendar. Up during term, down during holidays. Highest on Mondays. What if we've been pointing at the wrong thing?Books mentioned in this episode:Kids These Days — Dr. Will Dobud, with co-author NevinThe Anxious Generation — Jonathan HaidtDr. Will Dobud is a social worker, researcher, and educator who has worked with adolescents and families in the United States, Australia, and Norway. Will is from Washington, D.C., and divides his time between the United States and Australia each year. He is an award-winning researcher and educator recognized for excellence in research, teaching, and crime prevention. Dr. Dobud is a Senior Lecturer in Social Work at Charles Sturt University, Australia's largest social work school. His research focuses on improving therapy outcomes for teenagers and promoting safe, ethical practices. He has investigated and written about America's Troubled Teen Industry, especially wilderness therapy. He has worked alongside advocates, survivors, researchers, and clinicians to protect youth from institutionalization and harm. Will is the co-author of the award-winning book, Kids These Days: Understanding and Supporting Youth Mental Health (2025).Links

The movie Heavy Metal Parking Lot turns 40 this year — and feels weirdly contemporary. The basic setup is this: A couple of guys showed up at the parking lot of a Judas Priest show outside DC and just let cameras run as the tailgaters go wild. The difference: The cringe behavior didn't wind up on social media, but instead became part of an underground art film that slowly became a cult classic.

The reservoir falls forty feet and a drowned town rises out of the mud — stone walls, a half-melted steeple, and a graveyard breaking the surface in neat pale rows. At the waterline Nora meets Edith, an old woman who has been watching for this since the water started to drop, because it happened to her once too: 1976, the summer it didn't rain, the summer her own drowned boy came home. Edith knows what's in Nora's house, what it wants, and how it feeds — on the keeping of it, hollowing out everyone real until there's no one left. And she knows the one way to send it back. The only trouble is that nobody ever can. Part 3 of a four-part story. It's Grace or the boy. She already chose — at the door, the first night.⚠️ Content warning: this story contains themes of child loss, drowning, and grief.Unlock an ad-free podcast experience with Caloroga Shark Media!

This groundbreaking book chronicles the little-understood evolution of the neoconservative movement—from its birth as a rogue insurgency in the Nixon White House through its ascent to full and controversial control of America's foreign policy in the Bush years. In eye-opening detail, The Forty Years War documents the neocons' four-decade campaign to seize the reins of American foreign policy: the undermining of Richard Nixon's outreach to the Communist bloc nations; the success at halting détente during the Ford and Carter years; the uneasy but effectual alliance with Ronald Reagan; and the determined, and ultimately successful, campaign to overthrow Saddam Hussein—no matter the cost.Drawing upon recently declassified documents, hundreds of hours of interviews, and long-obscured White House tapes, The Forty Years War delves into the political and intellectual development of some of the most fascinating political figures of the last four decades. It describes the complex, three-way relationship of Richard Nixon, Henry Kissinger, and Alexander Haig, and unravels the actions of Donald Rumsfeld, Dick Cheney, and Paul Wolfowitz over the course of seven presidencies. And it reveals the role of the mysterious Pentagon official Fritz Kraemer, a monocle-wearing German expatriate whose unshakable faith in military power, distrust of diplomacy, moralistic faith in American goodness, and warnings against "provocative weakness" made him the hidden geopolitical godfather of the neocon movement. The authors' insights into Kraemer's influence on the neocons—will change the public understanding of the conduct of government in our time.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-opperman-report--1198501/support.

The More Sibyl Podcast Presents: 계속 선택하는 사랑 |Almost Forty Years, Three Countries, and What It Takes to Stay — The One with the Ibikunles: Episode 4 (2026)Love is patient, love is kind. Love hopes all things, and love endures all things (1 Corinthians 13:4-7).We all know this scripture. But the word I keep circling back to is endures. We love to dwell on the soft, beautiful things love brings, and we quietly skip past the harder truth tucked inside that verse. To endure something means there is resistance. It means something is pushing against you, and love is what holds on while it tries to pull you apart.In this episode, I sit down with a couple who have endured, with love, for almost forty years, across three countries, and they are still choosing each other.Dr. Tayo Ibikunle and Dr. (Mrs.) Tokunbo Ibikunle met more than once before they ever said yes (God, it seems, enjoys arranging these things), though she'll tell you plainly he wasn't her type at first. “Surely not you,” she told him. What followed was Nigeria, England, America, a letter written to her father, and a marriage that shaped how their own sons are being prepared for theirs.We get honest about the things that quietly pull marriages apart. The years it can take to learn to say sorry and mean it. What it means for home to feel like a castle instead of a battleground, and what happens to a man when respect is withheld until he shuts down. What it means to trust your husband's place instead of quietly outsourcing it, and we ask the harder question about female friendships: at what point does leaning on your community of women friends start filling a role that should be his? The endless, urgent pull of black tax, and the “tyranny of the urgent” that taught them to protect what was theirs first. What immigration actually reveals about a marriage. The fifteen-minute rule that rescued their worst arguments. And why, in her own words, “the older I get, the more I'm enjoying being married.”If you are newly married, in the thick of it, or quietly wondering how anyone stays connected across decades, this one is for you.

Leadership Is a Daily Practice: Jim Carlough on Integrity, Compassion, and the Quiet Question That Has Guided His Life for Forty Years

Send us Fan Mail Most of us were sold a lie somewhere along the way. That leadership is a title. That integrity is a personality trait. That some people are born with these qualities and others simply are not. Jim Carlough has spent more than three decades quietly proving the opposite. Leadership is a practice you build, one small honest decision at a time. And the same is true for the way you lead your own life. Archita sits down with Jim Carlough, transformational C-level executive, Amazon bestselling author, and the writer behind The Six Pillars of Effective Leadership, to talk about what changes inside a person when they decide to live with integrity, why empathy and compassion are non-negotiable, and the quiet end-of-day question a mentor gave him in 1983 that has shaped how he goes to bed every single night since. This is not a business episode. It is a conversation about how to be a human worth following, including the person you see in the mirror. About the Guest: Jim Carlough is a transformational C-suite executive and Amazon bestselling author with more than three decades of leadership experience inside multi-million-dollar healthcare and technology organisations. He currently serves as Chief Sales Officer at mPulse and was previously President of HealthTrio, where he tripled revenue and grew client acquisition by 150 percent. A Forbes Business Development Council member, International Impact Book Award winner, and named Chief Sales Officer of the Year 2025 by the International Association of Top Professionals, Jim is the author of The Six Pillars of Effective Leadership: A Roadmap to Success and is widely known as "The Leadership Identity Architect." His six pillars are Integrity, Focus, Empathy, Compassion, Stability, and Humor.  Key Takeaways: Leaders are built, not born. The myth that some people are simply born with leadership in them is the excuse most people use to stay where they are. A simple question at the end of each day can change a life. Jim's mentor in 1983 asked him to check whether he had ever benefitted himself at the expense of another. He has asked himself that question every night since. Integrity is not a performance. It is how you behave when no one is looking. The fake version shows up when watched. The real version is consistent. Most managers in the world today are "accidental leaders," promoted into roles they never asked for and never trained for. A large share burn out or lose their teams within two years. Empathy and compassion are not soft skills. They are the foundation of psychological safety. Without them, no team stays loyal for long. Eight of the top ten reasons employees voluntarily quit are about their manager. The leadership identity gap is real and quietly costing companies their best people. You do not need a title to lead. Behave like a leader on day one, and the world will notice.

What If Ancient Wisdom Was Right About the Mind? John Mee on Vedanta, Genetic Neuroengineering, and the New Science of Consciousness

Healthy Mind, Healthy Life

Send us Fan Mail Thousands of years ago, teachers like Swami Vivekananda and Paramahansa Yogananda spoke of the human mind as something boundless. Awareness, they said, was not fixed. Consciousness could expand. For most of history, that was treated as spiritual teaching, beautiful but unscientific. Today, there are researchers in laboratories asking what if the sages were pointing at something real, something we now finally have the tools to measure. Sana sits down with John Mee, founder and president of Cognigenics and one of the leading thinkers in the emerging field of genetic neuroengineering, to explore what happens when forty years of Vedic study and a lifetime in engineering meet at the same question. They discuss why higher brain activity may not mean higher consciousness, what his team's preclinical research has shown about the relationship between calmer neurons and clearer awareness, and why he believes the integration of ancient wisdom and modern science is creating something genuinely new. This is a thoughtful, exploratory conversation about the science of attention, the limits of materialist neuroscience, and the timeless human question of what the mind actually is. About the Guest: John Mee is a senior research and development executive, futurist, and the founder and president of Cognigenics, a biotech company developing RNA-based gene therapies targeting memory loss, cognitive decline, anxiety, and other neurocognitive and neuropsychiatric conditions. One of the architects of the Information Age, John previously directed R&D programs at Honeywell Information Systems, managing the engineering development of advanced large-scale computer systems. He holds multiple patents pending on genetic engineering methods for enhancing human cognition, and is a leading thinker in the emerging field of human genetic cognitive enhancement. His work integrates four decades of meditation practice and study of Vedic philosophy with cutting-edge molecular biology. His co-founder at Cognigenics, Dr. Dean Radin, serves as Chairman. Key Takeaways: The mind may not be as fixed as we have been led to believe. Vedanta's claim that awareness has no inherent ceiling is something modern neuroscience is beginning to investigate seriously. Higher brain activity does not always mean higher consciousness. John's research points to an inverse relationship: as superfluous neural activity quiets, conscious awareness appears to expand. Anxiety, distraction, and depression are correlated with overactive neurons in specific brain regions. Preclinical studies suggest that calming this hyperactivity may improve both attention and emotional regulation. What feels like a mental health crisis may also be, in part, a consciousness crisis. The disconnection from deeper layers of the mind is something ancient traditions named long before science could measure it. Genetic technology alone is not the answer. John emphasises that any cognitive intervention has to be wrapped in a holistic ecosystem of education, counselling, and support. The integration of ancient wisdom and modern science is not a fringe idea. It is changing how capital flows, how research is funded, and how seriously contemplative traditions are taken in mainstream institutions.

"How long will this people despise me? And how long will they not believe in me, in spite of all the signs that I have done among them?" The people weep all night, wish they had died in Egypt, and even talk of choosing a new leader to take them back. God's wrath burns hot, and only Moses' intercession spares them from immediate destruction. Yet the sentence is severe: forty years in the wilderness, one year for each day the spies explored. In this chapter, we see the terrible cost of unbelief and the mercy that preserves even a rebellious people.  The Rev. Steven Theiss, pastor of Immanuel Lutheran Church in New Wells, MO, joins the Rev. Dr. Phil Booe to study Numbers 14.  The Book of Numbers is far more than an ancient census report. It is the story of a people learning to trust God in the wilderness, and failing, and finding grace anyway.  In this series, host Pastor Phil Booe and guest pastors walk through the Old Testament book of Numbers chapter by chapter. We follow Israel from Sinai toward the Promised Land, through grumbling and rebellion, fiery serpents and a talking donkey, faithless spies and faithful priests. The journey is hard, the failures are many, and God remains faithful to a faithless people.  These ancient accounts point us to Christ. The bronze serpent lifted on a pole points to the cross. The rock struck for water points to the one struck for us. The high priest whose death frees the manslayer points to the Great High Priest whose death sets us free forever. Join us as we discover that the wilderness has more to teach us than we ever expected.  Thy Strong Word, hosted by Rev. Dr. Phil Booe, pastor of St. John Lutheran Church of Luverne, MN, reveals the light of our salvation in Christ through study of God's Word, breaking our darkness with His redeeming light. Each weekday, two pastors fix our eyes on Jesus by considering Holy Scripture, verse by verse, in order to be strengthened in the Word and be equipped to faithfully serve in our daily vocations.
