Michael Angelo Zervos is a Guinness World Record holder — he visited all 195 UN-recognized countries in 499 days. Along the way he interviewed people in every country about the happiest moment of their life. That project became a book, published by Penguin Random House, out February 23rd. We talked about: how the record works and what actually counts as "visiting" a country; a year and a half of planning vs. the Brazilian who claimed he did it by accident; getting jailed overnight in Liberia for taking a photo of a building; being deported from Nicaragua because they thought he was a journalist; how he got into North Korea during a two-week window that's since closed permanently; what North Korea is actually like (his answer: Plato's allegory of the cave, in real life); Cuba on the ground vs. what the left says about it; traveling through Ukraine, Palestine, Syria, and Sudan; asking people about happiness in active conflict zones; and what his grandfather being forced to fight for communist guerrillas in the Greek Civil War has to do with any of it.

While behavior analysts might think themselves immune to falling into poor practices when supporting students in public schools, don't forget that we too are sensitive to the contingencies of our environment. And when those environments are using statistically higher rates of punishment in the form of harsh discipline practices for females of color... This week we're joined by special guest, Dr. Mawule Sevon to discuss the research on this terrible trend, how behavior analysts might inadvertantly support its promulgation by responding to assessment and observation requests, and what our field can do to support anti-racist practices in school discipline. This episode is available for 1.0 CULTURAL/ETHICS CEU. Articles discussed this episode: Ladson-Billings, G. (1998).

You've been telling yourself the same story. That you need more money to start. That you need the perfect plan before you move. That fear is the reason you're stuck. Here's the truth: the only thing holding you back is the belief that something outside of you has to change before you can begin. Robert Herjavec went from arriving in America with nothing to building and selling companies worth hundreds of millions of dollars. He's one of the most recognizable faces on Shark Tank, and in this episode, he breaks down the exact mindset shifts that turned urgency into wealth, why most people quit before they compound, and the leadership mistake that quietly destroys great companies. From structuring earnouts with no money down to scaling a $400 million business without raising a dime, Robert reveals the frameworks that separate people who stay broke from people who build empires. In this episode, you'll learn: Why fear is what holds most people back and how the fear of hard work without guaranteed results is the real killer, not the work itself The poverty versus wealth mindset: why working to make a living keeps you stuck and how shifting to building wealth changes everything How Robert bought 13 businesses with no outside funding using earnouts, seller financing, and cash flow leverage, and why you don't need money in the bank to do deals The biggest mistake founders make when pitching: asking people to listen instead of making them want to hear, and why humility and subconscious alignment close deals before you even open your mouth How to value a company the right way: understanding industry multiples, EBITDA, and why people fail because they price based on what they need instead of what the business is worth Stop waiting for permission. Stop waiting for certainty. The life you want is on the other side of the decision you're avoiding. My new book, Own Or Be Owned, is all about building a business so good it doesn't need you.

This month, our reporters revisit the topics in our series from 20 years ago about poverty in our region.

n this episode, we dive deeply into the mystery of the Incarnation and how we are meant to relate to Christ. Drawing from a profound quote by St. Augustine, we explore how Christ made the things we fear losing entirely worthless by depriving Himself of them. We examine what it truly means to be poor in spirit, how to navigate worldly dignities, and the Christian response to injustice. Ultimately, echoing the wisdom of St. John of the Cross, we are called to radical detachment—assigning true worth only to God and aligning our lives perfectly with His divine will.Key Topics Discussed:The mystery of the Incarnation and God's perfect wisdom.St. Augustine's contrast between worldly desires and Christ's choices.Understanding true poverty of spirit in our daily duties.Responding to injustices as a Christian witness.St. John of the Cross and the call to detach from worthless things.The Midnight Compass: Stop treating the Dark Night like a mood disorder.

Don't Imbibe the Kool-Aid with Kim Kennedy – Develop a healthy respect for being informed about money and knowing how to manage it well. Being poor is not a sign of spirituality. Oftentimes, it's the result of ignorance and poor planning. So many tests can result in growth and deepen our faith when we realize a situation we're in, including finances, is extremely difficult or impossible to...

Dr. Justin Sledge is a scholar of philosophy and Western esotericism, and the voice behind the YouTube channel Esoterica, which has grown to over a million subscribers. He has spent his career studying the traditions that history tried to erase: Gnosticism, Kabbalah, Hermeticism, witchcraft, and alchemy.What We Dive Into:1. Classical skepticism is not about debunking or disbelief. It is about bracketing your personal investment long enough to let the material speak for itself. 2. Newton wrote more on alchemy and the occult than on calculus. Descartes arrived at his famous method through a mystical dream. Stripping these facts from the story of modernity has cost us access to some of the most important spiritual technologies ever developed.3. Every other starting point, certainty, comfort, doctrine, conclusions, has a gutter waiting at the end of it. Awe keeps the garden of curiosity alive.Know Thyself, but not by yourself.

Oregon school districts rely on the state for funds they need to educate students in their schools, but some educators and advocates say the formula they use to allocate those funds is outdated and inequitable. In-depth reporting by The Oregonian/OregonLive describes the way that students in poverty are undercounted, their schools underfunded and details how the resulting cuts are affecting some of the most vulnerable children in the state.    Education reporter Julia Silverman spent time with a student, a teacher, a principal and an attendance specialist in the Reynold’s school district in east Multnomah county. The district serves the highest percentage of low-income students in the Portland area. Silverman joins us to share more about her reporting and the possibility of state lawmakers reforming or overhauling the funding formula.

More than 4 million Americans have lost SNAP food assistance since the Republican tax-and-spending law took effect, according to new data from the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities. Researchers say expanded work requirements — not reduced need — are driving the sharp decline, with children making up nearly half of those losing benefits in states with available data.

1 A wise son listens to his father's instruction, but a scoffer doesn't listen to rebuke. 2 By the fruit of his lips, a man enjoys good things, but the unfaithful crave violence. 3 He who guards his mouth guards his soul. One who opens wide his lips comes to ruin. 4 The soul of the sluggard desires, and has nothing, but the desire of the diligent shall be fully satisfied. 5 A righteous man hates lies, but a wicked man brings shame and disgrace. 6 Righteousness guards the way of integrity, but wickedness overthrows the sinner. 7 There are some who pretend to be rich, yet have nothing. There are some who pretend to be poor, yet have great wealth. 8 The ransom of a man's life is his riches, but the poor hear no threats. 9 The light of the righteous shines brightly, but the lamp of the wicked is snuffed out. 10 Pride only breeds quarrels, but wisdom is with people who take advice. 11 Wealth gained dishonestly dwindles away, but he who gathers by hand makes it grow. 12 Hope deferred makes the heart sick, but when longing is fulfilled, it is a tree of life. 13 Whoever despises instruction will pay for it, but he who respects a command will be rewarded. 14 The teaching of the wise is a spring of life, to turn from the snares of death. 15 Good understanding wins favor, but the way of the unfaithful is hard. 16 Every prudent man acts from knowledge, but a fool exposes folly. 17 A wicked messenger falls into trouble, but a trustworthy envoy gains healing. 18 Poverty and shame come to him who refuses discipline, but he who heeds correction shall be honored. 19 Longing fulfilled is sweet to the soul, but fools detest turning from evil. 20 One who walks with wise men grows wise, but a companion of fools suffers harm. 21 Misfortune pursues sinners, but prosperity rewards the righteous. 22 A good man leaves an inheritance to his children's children, but the wealth of the sinner is stored for the righteous. 23 An abundance of food is in poor people's fields, but injustice sweeps it away. 24 One who spares the rod hates his son, but one who loves him is careful to discipline him. 25 The righteous one eats to the satisfying of his soul, but the belly of the wicked goes hungry.  Listen Donate Subscribe:Proverbs Daily PodcastPsalms Daily Podcast

Legacies of the 1920s: Hoover and Roosevelt Guest: David Pietrusza The final segment contrasts the presidencies of Herbert Hoover and FDR, the last of the six presidents from the 1920 cycle. Hoover, despite rising from "great poverty" to become a "great engineer," struggled with a cold public persona that failed to rally the nation during the Great Depression. Conversely, the wealthy FDR was transformed by his battle with polio, which observers like Frances Perkins believed allowed him to empathize more deeply with human suffering. FDR became a master of radio and newsreels, using them to refine his communication and build a broad "progressive coalition." Crucially, Roosevelt learned from Wilson's failure to compromise on the Versailles Treaty; when he later championed the United Nations, he made sure to involve Republicans in the process. By applying the hard lessons of the 1920 election, FDR successfully realized the internationalist vision that had eluded Wilson. (8)1920

Many Western economists and media outlets claim that Americans are wealthier than Europeans, but this is not true; it's based on a misunderstanding of the difference between average wealth and median wealth. Ben Norton explains how the extreme inequality in the US make its average wealth misleadingly look high, and why GDP per capita is not a good measurement. He debunks the myth of "Europoors", which is often spread by Donald Trump supporters.

Charles Murray is a Harvard and MIT-trained policy analyst and the author of Taking Religion Seriously. He joins me to explore why many educated people never seriously consider God—not because they've disproven the supernatural, but because they've quietly learned to dismiss it. Charles describes his journey from “happy agnostic” to “Christian,” wrestling with questions like “Why is there something rather than nothing?” and “Why does consciousness seem to reach beyond the brain?” This isn't the story of an aggressive atheist changing his mind. It's about the subtle assumptions that shape what we think is reasonable and what we hesitate to question. This interview first aired on Sean's YouTube channel. You can watch the video here.Charles Murray is a policy analyst educated at Harvard and M.I.T. He first came to national attention in 1984 with the publication Losing Ground, which changed the national conversation about the War on Poverty and its aftermath. In 1994, the best-selling The Bell Curve, coauthored with Richard Herrnstein, argued that the increasing role of intelligence over the twentieth century was transforming America's social structure. In 2012, Coming Apart documented the growing divide between a new lower class and a new upper class that foreshadowed the political polarization of the 2016 election. His other books include In Pursuit (1988), Human Accomplishment (2003), Human Diversity (2020), and Facing Reality (2021). He is currently the Hayek Emeritus Scholar at the American Enterprise Institute.==========Think Biblically: Conversations on Faith and Culture is a podcast from Talbot School of Theology at Biola University, which offers degrees both online and on campus in Southern California.   Find all episodes of Think Biblically at: https://www.biola.edu/think-biblically.   To submit comments, ask questions, or make suggestions on issues you'd like us to cover or guests you'd like us to have on the podcast, email us at thinkbiblically@biola.edu.

Episode Summary A father and his four children were found dead in their home in Ulsan after months of severe financial hardship. While the case was ruled a murder-suicide, the discussion quickly expands beyond the crime itself into the failures of Korea's welfare system, the stigma surrounding mental health, and the bureaucratic obstacles that can leave vulnerable families without meaningful support. Joe and Shawn examine how the family had already been identified as a high-risk household and had been visited by schools, welfare officials, police, and child protection workers. Despite multiple warning signs, no agency ever developed a complete picture of the family's crisis. The episode explores whether this tragedy represents an isolated incident or a broader failure of institutions designed to protect children and families.

The prosperity gospel promises wealth as a sign of faith—but what does the Bible actually say about prosperity and suffering? In this conversation, Troy, Ben, and Steve unpack how prosperity theology distorts Scripture and why true prosperity is found in Christ, not possessions.

The liberal ideal of the individual and rational, welfare-serving law, and a defense of the Industrial Revolution against the myth that early capitalism degraded the common man.

Oto shares his journey from 12 years as an accountant into 14 years in crypto, and how he discovered that "without health, there is no wealth," connecting financial sovereignty with embodiment, mindset, and lifestyle. Together, they explore how traditional, wartime-style banking creates a parasitic, scarcity-based relationship with money and how trust law, private structuring, blockchain, and regenerative "toroidal" wealth systems can help people break financial trauma patterns, reduce stress, and build aligned, passive income and generational wealth.   Highlights: "Without health, there is no wealth."   "I feel like most people are stuck in this like parasitic mindset."   "Currency, this thing we call money, is infinite."   "Are you the player in the game or are you the observer of the game or the one playing the game?"

In today's lecture, we explore Caribbean history through the lens of cinema and globalization. We begin with Chapter 11 of Neoliberalism, Globalization, Income Inequality, Poverty and Resistance by Renaldo McKenzie. This chapter examines the use of documentary films as forms of resistance and demonstrates how cinema can serve as a powerful medium for social critique and social change.The lecture centers on the documentary Life and Debt, analyzing how globalization has disproportionately affected the peoples of the Global South, particularly in the Caribbean. Students examine the contradictions and ironies of globalization, decolonization, and denationalization, while questioning whether political independence has translated into genuine economic and cultural liberation.Drawing on the works of Frantz Fanon, particularly The Wretched of the Earth; Homi K. Bhabha and The Location of Culture; and V. S. Naipaul and his literary contributions as forms of resistance and social commentary, the lecture explores the intellectual foundations of Caribbean thought and postcolonial critique.Students are introduced to and discuss key concepts including nationalism, colonialism, decolonization, postcolonialism, mise-en-scène, globalization, the Global South versus the Global North, and the ways visual storytelling can shape historical consciousness and political understanding.The lecture then transitions into a historical timeline of the Caribbean, beginning with ancient Kemet over 5,000 years ago, examining early African civilizations and pre-Columbian societies before tracing the arrival of Christopher Columbus and the profound transformations that followed. Through this historical journey, students are encouraged to rethink conventional narratives about the Caribbean and situate the region within broader global historical processes.Delivered live via Zoom, this lecture is part of the Caribbean Thought course at Jamaica Theological Seminary and reaches students across the Caribbean, the United States, Canada, and beyond. The course is taught by Professor Renaldo McKenzie, author of Neoliberalism, Globalization, Income Inequality, Poverty and Resistance, President of The Neoliberal Corporation, and creator and host of The Neoliberal Round Podcast. Professor McKenzie delivers the lectures from Philadelphia, bringing together history, philosophy, political economy, and media studies to challenge students to critically examine the Caribbean's past, present, and future.For more information, email info@theneoliberal.com.Visit theneoliberal.com and renaldocmckenzie.com.Learn more about Jamaica Theological Seminary at https://jts.edu.jm.

"Go back to your country." It's the favorite phrase of border hawks and armchair historians across the Western Hemisphere. But what happens when we actually crack open a history book and look at the paperwork?In this episode of *The Forefront Radio*, we examine the historical irony of modern border politics. Somewhere between the Niña, the Pinta, and the Santa Maria—three ships that nobody's grandmother filed a visa application for—certain groups decided they were "native" to a continent they hadn't even stepped foot on until the 1490s.From the total absence of European populations pre-1492 to the invention of "whiteness" in the 17th-century Virginia colonies, we trace the timeline of how military invasions got rebranded as "exploration," and how waves of European refugees fleeing their own continent's self-inflicted world wars became the arbiters of who belongs on stolen land. We also dive into the "erasure by paperwork"—unpacking the devastating history of how colonial administrators reclassified Native peoples to seize land, the "Five Dollar Indian" phenomenon, and how this exact same playbook was deployed across Canada, Mexico, Brazil, and Argentina.The next time someone demands to see a visa, ask them for the paperwork their ancestors filed with the Taino Council.**Stay awake. Stay covenant-minded.**###

Nicole Terrizzi joins the show to discuss her memoir, 'Learning in Free Fall: A Testimony of Mental Health, Poverty and Race in American Education.' Her book focuses on the crisis in America's education system. Every day school children feel the impacts of increasing budget cuts, teacher shortages and threats to the accessibility of a quality education. Terrizzi shares her path to teaching from growing up in rural Iowa, and asks what happens when those leading our classrooms are in crisis themselves?

Summer Lee explains her concerns about the Trump administration's push to interfere in the upcoming 2026 midterms, and argues that the best path to achieving public policies like "Medicare for All" is to take billionaires' money out of politics and to fight for electoral reforms. Credits:Production: Taya Graham, Stephen JanisPost-Production: David Hebden, Stephen JanisBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-real-news-podcast--2952221/support.Help us continue producing radically independent news and in-depth analysis by following us and becoming a monthly sustainer.Follow us on:Bluesky: @therealnews.comFacebook: The Real News NetworkTwitter: @TheRealNewsYouTube: @therealnewsInstagram: @therealnewsnetworkBecome a member and join the Supporters Club for The Real News Podcast today!

Think a six-figure salary means you're rich? Think again. In this episode, Tait Duryea joins Russ and Joey to break down the reality of the high income poverty trap, where earning a six-figure salary or more doesn't automatically lead to financial freedom. He explains why many high-income earners feel “rich on paper but broke in reality.”Tait shares strategies for redirecting high-income earnings into real assets, passive income streams, and tax-efficient investments. He discusses practical examples, including real estate and oil & gas investments, highlighting how these tools can help create sustainable cash flow and grow net worth over time.Tait also talks about the mindset and systems required to break the cycle of working harder for money.Top three things you will learn:-High income doesn't guarantee financial freedom-How to redirect high income into real assets and passive income streams-Mindset and systems matter as much as incomeAbout Our Guest:Tait Duryea is an experienced airline captain. While aviation was his primary career choice, real estate always held a special allure. Fortunately, Tait has been able to find success in both. Since joining a major airline in 2010, Tait has gained over a decade of experience in a diverse range of real estate investing.As he learned the tactics and strategies employed by the ultra-wealthy, Tait recognized a unique opportunity to share this knowledge with fellow pilots. He launched Turbine Capital in 2020 to provide pilots with access to high-quality investment opportunities, and in 2023, the Passive Income Pilots podcast was launched as a free financial education resource.Disclaimer: The opinions expressed on this podcast are solely those of the hosts and guests and do not constitute financial advice.

When a who's who of progressive economists, some Nobel laureates, all academics, take to the pages of the, ummm, Guardian, to say that “growth is doomed” and that “poverty is manufactured,” is it time for policymakers to reverse course and embrace the policy solutions these “experts” present to “change the rules of the global economy”? Or, rather, is this the ideal time for lovers of freedom who believe in human flourishing to double down on the only things the world has ever seen that manufacture prosperity?
