What if not getting what you thought you wanted is actually the greatest form of grace? In this episode, Heather sits down with beloved transformational teacher, inspirational speaker, and author Kute Blackson to talk about breaking free from conditioning and unlocking your true greatness. Kute shares the jaw-dropping, real-life miracle story of how his parents met across continents through sheer spiritual intuition, and how he walked away from a pre-determined path as his father's successor in Ghana and London to discover his highest destiny in America. In this conversation, we explore: How our early childhood environments imprint a false version of what "love" means into our nervous systems. The "inside-out approach" to dismantling the strategic defense mechanisms of the ego. Kute's grueling but liberating personal breakthroughs on the El Camino de Santiago trail and in India. Why real surrender isn't about giving up—it's about dropping the illusion of control to let a higher intelligence move through you.

The Aunties are back, and this week we are joined by content creator, host, and viral personality Kelso (@Kelsoshow)! From his controversial comments on immigration and Windrush to the viral debate on where all the 40+ Black men are, no topic is off-limits. We dive deep into Caribbean vs. African identity, building wealth, height privilege, and why Kelso officially stopped talking to girls after hitting the limelight. Plus, we run through the comments, call out the latest viral madness (including that Paraguayan senator and World Cup politics), and talk about Kelso's insane rise from corporate manager to online star. ⚡ Kelso explains (and defends) his Windrush comments — was it really what people think he meant? ⚡ Being 6'7": the DMs, the dating, the disadvantages nobody talks about ⚡ Buy Back Brixton, Ghana's reparations bid, and who actually got rich off the slave trade ⚡ The Paraguayan senator's vile comments about Mbappé — and Trump getting FIFA to overturn a red card ⚡ "Where are the Black men over 40?" — we run to the comments and it gets heated ⚡ Kelso's actual rise: from a corporate job at Peabody to going viral in Grenada in three months

Why do so many people suffer from chronic symptoms despite being told their labs are "normal"? In this fascinating episode, we sit down with Dr. Olivia Lesslar, a physician specializing in psychoneuroimmunology and longevity medicine, to uncover why so-called "mystery illnesses" are often the result of multiple unresolved threats interacting throughout the body and brain. She explains how chronic pain, chronic fatigue, trauma, surgery, infections, and even deeply rooted psychological patterns can keep the nervous system locked in survival mode, making true healing a complex but achievable process. Dr. Lesslar also shares why creating a sense of safety within the body is one of the most powerful yet overlooked foundations for recovery. If you've been searching for answers to persistent health challenges, this episode offers a compassionate, science-backed perspective that will change the way you think about chronic disease and what it takes to heal.Dr. Olivia Ly Lesslar is an Australian medical doctor with an expertise in psychoneuroimmunology and longevity medicine. Known as a “medical Sherlock Holmes,” she is recognised for her ability to synthesise insights across multiple specialties and unravel complex, multi-systemic conditions that defy conventional diagnostic frameworks.She is Director of Functional and Longevity Medicine at Cingulum Health in Sydney and Medical Architect and Founding Chief Medical Officer of Eir Liv, where she designed the clinical framework for a medicalised longevity atelier model. Internationally, she serves as Founding Chief Clinical and Standards Advisor to Elite Optimal Health Centre in Accra, Ghana, guiding its clinical standards and institutional development. Dr Lesslar holds leadership and advisory positions across more than thirty international organisations in neurotechnology, biotechnology, and space medicine, including Human Regenerator (UK), Kure (sydney), L'evive Labs (Singapore), Sens.ai (Canada), and Oxford Healthspan (UK).In 2025, she completed a seven-city speaking tour across Australia and New Zealand, presenting her original framework, The Nine Ancient Survival Threats, a psychoneuroimmunological model exploring the evolutionary roots of chronic disease. She holds academic appointments at Griffith University's National Centre for Neuroimmunology and Emerging Diseases and at the Geneva College of Longevity Science. Her focus is on advancing integrative, patient-centred models that unite neuroscience, immunology, and systems-level thinking.SHOW NOTES:0:39 Welcome to the podcast!3:19 About Dr. Olivia Lesslar4:02 Welcome her to the show!5:10 Are they really “mystery illnesses”?9:56 Chronic pain signals11:58 Her traumatic injury15:22 What is Psychoneuroimmunology?16:59 When your body betrays you20:16 Fear-based marketing23:25 The impact of surgery26:20 Assessing threats to the body33:05 How to create safety in the body36:57 The “schemas” that inform our health40:16 Chronic Fatigue Syndrome42:08 Her “index patient”48:07 Why healing is multifactorial51:45 Her framework for health55:10 Her finale piece of advice57:53 Thanks for tuning in!RESOURCES:Website: www.drolivialesslar.comIG: @drolivialesslarLinkedIn Her peer-reviewed published research: ResearchGate profileSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/biohacker-babes-podcast/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brands

There's a new Netflix show that has got lots of us talking: The Polygamist. It's a drama based in South Africa about a wealthy businessman named Jonasi Gomora who has multiple wives and a mistress. It's packed with betrayal, revenge… and cheating. It's become the most-watched Netflix show in South Africa and Kenya, and it's hit the top 10 in countries like Nigeria and Romania too. But it's also got people talking about polygamous relationships - which are legal in South Africa and many other countries - and whether they work.BBC reporter Khanyisile Ngcobo joins us from Johannesburg to unpick how people in South Africa have been reacting to the show, how polygamy traditionally works, and how conversations around it are changing. And we hear from fans in Ghana, South Africa, the US and the UK, who share what their group chats have been saying about the hit show.Instagram: @bbcwhatintheworld Email: whatintheworld@bbc.co.uk WhatsApp: +44 330 12 33 22 6 Presenter: Hannah Gelbart Producers: William Lee Adams and Chelsea Coates Editor: Verity Wilde

In this 150th episode, I speak with Rachel Uda Murdock, who is the creator behind the viral social media platform called “RachelLDSStorytime.” I wanted to chat with her about the unexpected insights she has gained while sharing the global history of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in bite-sized, three-minute segments that uncover powerful and often unknown, faith-building accounts of members of the Church from every corner of the earth. Rachel turned a personal spiritual prompting into a thriving, multi-platform ministry that brings hidden global histories to light.We explore the deep spiritual resonance behind the global church, the vital role that storytelling plays in simplifying complex gospel doctrines, and the inspiring accounts of ordinary Latter-day Saints whose unwavering faith produced extraordinary miracles.Some highlights from this episode include: Celebrating 150 Episodes: Reflections on the journey of For All The Saints so far. From broadcasting out of the historic Downham countryside for episode 100 to exploring a shared kinship with Rachel over the profound impact of global storytelling.The Global Breakthrough of LDS Storytime: Rachel shares the organic, faith-led origin of her platform, detailing how she felt called to counter online negativity by shifting the digital focus away from localized cultural tropes and toward the inspiring reality of a truly international church.The Miraculous Foundations of the Church in Ghana: A deep dive into the inspiring story of Joseph William Billy Johnson, who spent 14 years gathered with ten unbaptized congregations in Ghana prior to the 1978 “all worthy male” priesthood revelation, anchored only by a single copy of the Book of Mormon and profound personal visions.Betrayal and Faith in 19th-Century Hawaii: The gripping historical account of the Hawaiian Latter-day Saints on the island of Lanai who were defrauded by the enigmatic Walter Murray Gibson, providing a powerful modern lesson on maintaining a testimony of the gospel even when church leaders fail.The Heavenly Translation of the Thai Princess: Revisiting the remarkable experiences of Srilaksana Suntarahut, the royal Thai translator who overcame severe spiritual opposition and witnessed miraculous manifestations while translating the Book of Mormon into her native tongue.A Milestone Invitation: To celebrate the 150th episode, a special challenge for listeners to actively push back against digital noise by using the "town square" of social media to speak out, verbalize gratitude, and share personal moments where they have witnessed God's hand in their life and how it has blessed them.You can find Rachel's work and connect with LDS Storytime at the following links:Facebook, Instagram, TikTok & YouTube: @RachelLDSStorytimeFollow For All The Saints on social media for updates and inspiring content:www.instagram.com/forallthesaintspodhttps://www.facebook.com/forallthesaintspod/For All The Saints episodes are released every Monday on YouTube, Spotify, Apple Podcasts and more:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TVDUQg_qZIU&list=UULFFf7vzrJ2LNWmp1Kl-c6K9Qhttps://open.spotify.com/show/3j64txm9qbGVVZOM48P4HS?si=bb31d048e05141f2https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/for-all-the-saints/id1703815271If you have feedback or any suggestions for topics or guests, connect with Ben & Sean via hello@forallthesaints.org or DM on InstagramConversations to Refresh Your Faith.

Copyright ©2026, Weird Darkness.Originally aired: April 23, 2024This episode of Weird Darkness travels from obscure folklore across four continents to a little-known Louisiana serial killer and a Maryland child murder that has gone unsolved for more than sixty years.It opens with a tour through the ghosts and monsters that rarely make the usual lists: the Dungarvon Whooper, the murdered lumber-camp cook named Ryan whose whoops still echo along New Brunswick's Dungarvon River; the strzyga of Slavic myth, a two-hearted, twin-souled demon that takes the form of a barn owl before it feeds; Lady Koi Koi, the red-heeled teacher whose clicking footsteps haunt boarding schools across Nigeria, Ghana, and South Africa; the banshee of North Carolina's Tar River, tied to a flour miller named Dave Warner and the Revolutionary War redcoats who drowned him in 1781; the Headless Nun of Miramichi, the murdered Sister Marie who wanders French Fort Cove asking where her head has gone; the Kludde, a chain-rattling shapeshifting dog from Belgian and Dutch folklore; the Inupasugjuk, the rarely-seen giants of Inuit tradition; the Dearg Due of County Waterford, an abused Irish bride who rose from her grave near the Tree of Strongbow to drain the blood of her father and husband; the Goatman of Old Alton Bridge near Denton, Texas, an 1884 iron truss bridge also tied to the lynching of black goat farmer Oscar Washburn; and the Stratford Knockings of 1850, the poltergeist that draped Reverend Eliakim Phelps's Connecticut mansion in funeral crepe and centered on his eleven-year-old stepson Harry.From there the episode turns to Ronald Joseph Dominique, the Louisiana pizza delivery man dubbed the Bayou Strangler, who raped and strangled twenty-three men between 1997 and 2006 while evading police for nearly a decade. Drawing on Fred Rosen's book The Bayou Strangler, the segment follows the killing of Oliver LeBanks, beaten with a tire iron and dumped beneath a highway overpass near Metairie, and traces Dominique's earlier victims across St. Charles Parish, from nineteen-year-old David Mitchell in July 1997 to twenty-year-old Gary Pierre and thirty-eight-year-old Larry Ranson, most of them gay African American men lured with the promise of paid sex. It introduces Detective Lieutenant Dennis Thornton of the Jefferson Parish sheriff's office, who worked the LeBanks scene and set himself the task of linking the killings that DNA evidence would finally tie to Dominique.The episode closes with the June 10, 1960 disappearance of nine-year-old Alva Jean Parris, who vanished walking three blocks to her aunt's house from the Riverdale Apartments in Essex, Maryland. Five days later, searchers found her shoes in a marsh and her body in a shallow grave concealed with linoleum, sod, and twigs beside an abandoned farmhouse, her abdomen and pelvis coated in lye. Assistant Medical Examiner Dr. William Lovitt found decomposition too advanced to confirm a cause of death, though strangulation was suspected, and despite polygraph tests, a solid alibi clearing her mother Fredonia, and tips about a man seen in a sailor's hat, no suspect was ever charged in a case that remains open today.
Dans les années 1970, l'université de Dakar vit un paradoxe : l'un des plus grands intellectuels africains travaille dans ses murs, mais n'a pas le droit d'y enseigner. Son nom : Cheikh Anta Diop. Face au président Léopold Sédar Senghor et à sa négritude, il défend une vision radicalement différente de ce que pourrait être une renaissance africaine. Notre série sur les campus africains de légende se rend aujourd'hui à Dakar, au cœur d'un des grands duels intellectuels du XXᵉ siècle. De notre correspondante à Dakar, Dans les années 1970 du Sénégal post-indépendance, la pensée senghorienne domine, mais le campus de l'université de Dakar est déjà un lieu de contestation naissante. « Senghor et les étudiants, ce n'était pas facile, se rappelle Buuba Diop, historien, qui y était étudiant. Ceux qui contestaient Senghor en tant qu'étudiants étaient majoritaires. Les étudiants du Parti socialiste étaient minoritaires. C'est ainsi qu'on a dissous des organisations étudiantes. » Face à Senghor et sa négritude, un homme incarne une autre vision. Cheikh Anta Diop. C'est un intellectuel accompli. Son premier grand livre, Nations nègres et culture, est paru en 1955. Sa thèse : la civilisation égyptienne antique était une civilisation noire africaine, et c'est de cette vérité scientifique que doit partir toute renaissance du continent. « Pour Senghor, "l'émotion est nègre comme la raison est hellène". Alors là, Cheikh Anta Diop ne pouvait pas être d'accord », souligne l'historien. « La question essentielle a également été l'Égypte, l'origine de la civilisation africaine à partir de l'Égypte, etc. Ça, Senghor était tout à fait contre, explique Fatou Sow, sociologue, elle était elle aussi à l'université. Je pense que Senghor avait à la fois un respect pour cet homme intelligent et brillant quand même, et puis en même temps, une aversion pour ce qu'il écrivait. Et ils n'ont pas arrêté de se répondre l'un à l'autre. » À lire aussiCampus de légende: au Ghana, l'Institute of African Studies de Legon, lieu de rayonnement du panafricanisme [1/6] Un défenseur du wolof peu entendu Les deux hommes s'opposent aussi sur les langues : Senghor défend le français, Cheikh Anta Diop milite pour les langues africaines. Jusqu'en 1981, Diop n'aura pas le droit d'enseigner l'histoire à l'université. Relégué à l'Institut fondamental d'Afrique noire, il y crée un laboratoire de datation au carbone 14, mariant physique nucléaire et recherche sur les origines africaines. Sur le campus, dans ces années-là, les occasions de l'entendre sont rarissimes. « L'Association des historiens africains a organisé une conférence sur la haute antiquité et la Méditerranée, Cheikh Anta Diop n'était pas prévu au programme. Quelques amis sont allés voir l'association en leur disant : "Mais vous ne pouvez pas faire ce type de réflexion sans inviter Cheikh Anta Diop." Donc, ils sont allés l'inviter, raconte Fatou Sow. J'étais à cette conférence-là. Personne n'a bougé dans la salle. Il a parlé tout seul. Et ça, je pense que ça a été un moment très important parce que c'est la première fois qu'il parlait sur le campus. » Cheikh Anta meurt en 1986, à 62 ans. Un an plus tard, l'université prend son nom. L'Ifan, l'Institut fondamental d'Afrique noire, aussi. Une reconnaissance trop tardive pour Fatou Sow. Et aujourd'hui, le wolof qu'il défendait comme langue d'enseignement n'a toujours pas intégré l'université qui porte son nom. À écouter dans La marche du mondeÀ l'école de Cheikh Anta Diop
Lead poisoning robs the world's kids of millions of IQ points a day and kills more people than wars, natural disasters and road accidents combined — yet we treat it as a problem we've already solved. Drew McCartor, who runs the nonprofit Pure Earth, has spent nearly two decades proving it doesn't have to be this way. He presents their three-step fix that's already working in places from Georgia to Ghana, and makes the case that we can finally beat a crisis hiding in plain sight.

Depuis la tenue du sommet du G7 à Evian entre le 15 et le 17 juin dernier auquel le président français Emmanuel Macron n'a pas invité son homologue sud-africain, un irritant s'est immiscé dans les relations franco-sud-africaines. Alors que Cyril Ramaphosa est en visite officielle à Paris ce vendredi 10 juillet, les deux dirigeants vont-ils en parler ? Quels sont par ailleurs les autres enjeux de ce déplacement ? Chercheuse à International Crisis Group, la Sud-Africaine Liesl Louw répond pour l'occasion aux questions de Christophe Boisbouvier. RFI : Est-ce que les relations franco-sud-africaines se sont distendues depuis qu'Emmanuel Macron a oublié d'inviter Cyril Ramaphosa au dernier G7, à Evian, en France ? Liesl Louw : Oui, il y avait des tensions, c'est sûr, parce qu'initialement, apparemment, Ramaphosa a reçu une invitation pour assister au G7, mais il a été désinvité, ou comme vous avez dit, on a oublié de l'inviter au dernier moment. Donc Ramaphosa aussi n'est pas allé au sommet de Nairobi, le Africa Forward du mois de mai dernier. Donc il y avait ces deux rendez-vous et je pense que l'Afrique du Sud est déçue par cette situation. Mais on a compris que la pression du président Trump, qui menaçait de ne pas venir à Evian, si Ramaphosa assistait à cette réunion, était principalement la cause de cette situation par le fait que Ramaphosa finalement n'a pas été invité pour venir au G7. Vu la proximité stratégique entre la France et les États-Unis, on l'a encore vu cette semaine à Ankara lors du sommet de l'Otan, quel est l'intérêt pour Cyril Ramaphosa de venir en France ? Oui, il y a beaucoup d'intérêts. D'abord économique, pour attirer des investissements. Le plus grand problème aujourd'hui pour Ramaphosa, c'est le manque de croissance économique. L'Afrique du Sud n'attire pas d'investissements étrangers, mais il y a des sociétés françaises implantées en Afrique du Sud et l'Afrique du Sud aimerait bien augmenter ces investissements et le commerce entre les deux pays. On fait face à des graves problèmes de chômage. Ça aussi, c'est une des causes de ces graves émeutes et des manifestations xénophobes en Afrique du Sud. Donc, Ramaphosa veut montrer que, malgré ces tensions géopolitiques, l'Afrique du Sud reste un pays important sur le plan international et africain, même si les relations entre l'Afrique du Sud et le reste du continent passent un très mauvais moment actuellement. Malgré l'attaque de l'Ukraine par la Russie en 2022, l'Afrique du Sud maintient son alliance stratégique avec Moscou. Est-ce que ce n'est pas un sérieux point de divergence entre l'Afrique du Sud et la France ? Est-ce que ça ne va pas finir par fragiliser les relations entre les deux pays ? Oui, c'est vrai que, depuis l'invasion de l'Ukraine en 2022, l'Afrique du Sud a été très critiquée par les pays européens pour sa position. Surtout certains individus au sein de l'ANC [le parti au pouvoir, NDLR] qui sont ouvertement pro-russes. L'Afrique du Sud aussi a présidé un sommet des Brics où la Russie joue un rôle important. Mais je pense que c'est ça qui fait que l'Afrique du Sud est un peu au cœur de ce jeu géopolitique. Parce que d'un côté, certains sont vus comme pro-russes, mais en même temps, le président Ramaphosa est très ouvert aux Occidentaux. L'Afrique du Sud a quand même montré une position non alignée, neutre quelque part dans ce jeu géopolitique. Je pense que ce sentiment pro-russe a un peu diminué avec le temps depuis 2022. Les relations avec l'Europe se sont améliorées depuis. Depuis un mois, le gouvernement sud-africain est accusé par plusieurs autres gouvernements africains, notamment ceux du Nigeria et du Ghana, de fermer les yeux sur les graves violences xénophobes en Afrique du Sud. En allant à Paris, est-ce que Cyril Ramaphosa vient aussi rompre un certain isolement diplomatique ? Oui, absolument, l'Afrique du Sud et son image sur le continent souffrent énormément de ces violences xénophobes. Ramaphosa, lui-même, je pense, n'a pas su être à la hauteur pour dénoncer ces manifestations, mais pas uniquement les manifestations, la violence contre les étrangers africains en Afrique du Sud. En ce qui concerne son isolement diplomatique, c'est très intéressant de voir l'Afrique du Sud renouer des liens avec des pays comme le Rwanda où, depuis très longtemps, l'Afrique du Sud n'avait pas eu de bonnes relations. Le ministre des Affaires étrangères rwandais était en Afrique du Sud pour la première fois en visite officielle depuis douze ans. Et du fait de cet isolement diplomatique, est-ce que le business en souffre ? Est-ce qu'il y a moins d'investissements en Afrique du Sud ? Je pense que, pour le moment, on ne sent pas encore ça. Le manque d'investissement en Afrique du Sud, depuis très longtemps, est lié à d'autres facteurs, notamment les problèmes d'infrastructures et d'approvisionnement en électricité. Là où on peut voir peut-être à l'avenir un problème économique lié à ces violences xénophobes, c'est pour les entreprises sud-africaines implantées sur le continent, comme le groupe de télécom MTN par exemple au Nigeria, qui est parfois mis en difficulté par le gouvernement nigérian à cause de ce qu'il se passe en Afrique du Sud et des violences xénophobes.
Why did a blacksmith hide six cocoa pods under his tools to smuggle them past Spanish customs — and how did those six pods become the foundation of an industry that today supplies sixty percent of the world's chocolate? Who was Tetteh Quarshie, the man who spent six years watching cocoa grow on a plantation island before bringing the knowledge home to Ghana, and why has the credit for what he did been contested ever since? And what does it mean that the average cocoa farmer in Ghana earns a dollar a day for producing the raw material of a chocolate bar that sells for the same price?Join John and Patrick as they tell the story of Ghana and cocoa — the toolbox, the Cocoa Hold-Up of 1937, and the smallholder revolution that made a country from six pods...----------In Sponsorship with J&K Fresh.The customs broker who is your fruit and veggies' personal bodyguard.

Griffin Warner talks betting for Friday. Real_G Warner closes out the World Cup Round of 32 with a full betting breakdown before diving into a stacked Major League Baseball card ahead of the July 4th holiday weekend. The episode opens on the soccer pitch with Australia and Egypt in Dallas, where Real_G leans toward a low scoring affair and a cleanly priced Egypt moneyline, before shifting to Cape Verde and Argentina, a matchup he expects to stay under the total even as Cape Verde's improbable tournament run continues. The soccer preview wraps with Ghana and Colombia, where Real_G questions whether Colombia's attack can find its rhythm against a Ghana defense that already shut down England, while flagging rising moneyline value on a potential Ghana advance. From there the show moves into baseball, working through the entire MLB slate one matchup at a time, including St. Louis and Andre Pallante visiting the Cubs and David Peterson, Pittsburgh's Mitch Keller against Washington's Foster Griffin, Minnesota's Mike Paredes facing Gerrit Cole and the Yankees, Chicago's Anthony Kay against Cleveland's Gavin Williams, Baltimore's Trevor Rogers on the road against a struggling Reds club, the Mets and Christian Scott visiting Atlanta, San Francisco's Logan Webb against Colorado's Ryan Feltner, Tampa Bay's Nick Martinez against Houston's Spencer Arrighetti, Boston's Jake Bennett against the Angels and Reid Detmers, Miami's Tyler Phillips against Jack Perkins and the Athletics, Milwaukee's Kyle Harrison against Arizona's Jose Cabrera, and Toronto's Dylan Cease on the road against Seattle's Luis Castillo. The centerpiece of the baseball portion is San Diego and Michael King on the road against Shohei Ohtani and the Dodgers, where Real_G explains why the run line offers far better value than an inflated moneyline number on King. The episode closes with the official What I Bet best bet, sending listeners into the holiday weekend with the Padres and Michael King on the run line at plus one and a half, along with a look back at recent results that has the show sitting at five wins and three losses over its last eight picks. Before the pick is revealed, Real_G shares a July 4th promo code for Pregame.com, offering holiday weekend access from Wednesday through Monday across every pick in every sport for seventy seven dollars using code HOTDOG12, giving listeners full coverage heading into one of the busiest sports weekends of the summer.

Ghana, un país de África Occidental con más de 34 millones de habitantes, destaca por su riqueza histórica, cultural y política. Cuna del poderoso Imperio Ashanti y hogar de más de 80 lenguas, conserva un legado único reflejado en símbolos como los Adinkra y el sagrado Trono de Oro. Su costa, conocida como la Costa de Oro, fue uno de los principales escenarios del comercio transatlántico de personas esclavizadas, cuyos castillos de Elmina y Cape Coast hoy son lugares de memoria histórica. En 1957, bajo el liderazgo de Kwame Nkrumah, Ghana se convirtió en el primer país del África subsahariana en independizarse del dominio británico, impulsando el panafricanismo. Actualmente, su vibrante capital, Accra, es un centro cultural y diplomático, mientras que el país sigue dejando huella en el mundo con géneros musicales como el Highlife y el Afrobeats, además de su pasión por el fútbol representada por las Black Stars.
What if grief isn't something we're meant to "get over"—but something we're meant to carry with love? In one of his most personal episodes ever, Darin opens his heart following the passing of his mother, Sandra Lee Olien. Rather than offering easy answers or tidy stages of grief, he shares the raw, complicated reality of loss: the tears, the gratitude, the anger, the laughter, the memories, and the profound realization that death doesn't simply teach us about endings—it teaches us how to live. Drawing from psychology, cultural traditions around the world, personal stories, and the wisdom of those facing the end of life, Darin explores why Western culture struggles with grief, why love is an active practice rather than a feeling, and how embracing mortality can become one of the greatest invitations to authenticity, forgiveness, vulnerability, and purpose. This is not simply an episode about death. It's an episode about living so fully that, when the end eventually comes for all of us, there is as little left unsaid as possible. What You'll Learn Why Western culture often avoids meaningful conversations about grief The difference between "moving on" and maintaining continuing bonds with loved ones How cultures around the world approach death and remembrance Why grief isn't linear—and why that's completely normal The psychology of disenfranchised grief Darin's deeply personal reflections after losing his mother How unconditional love creates lifelong resilience Why unresolved relationships become our greatest regrets The five most common regrets people share at the end of life Why vulnerability is one of the greatest expressions of love How death can become one of life's greatest teachers Practical ways to live with more honesty, forgiveness, and purpose Chapters 00:00:00 – Welcome to SuperLife 00:00:33 – Sponsor: Alkemis Paint 00:03:24 – A deeply personal announcement: the loss of Darin's mother 00:04:01 – Why this is the first episode about grief 00:05:04 – Grief, celebration, and holding conflicting emotions at once 00:06:00 – Why life continues after loss 00:07:02 – Death teaches us how to love 00:08:11 – Why grief receives so little space in Western culture 00:09:14 – Understanding disenfranchised grief 00:10:24 – Moving on versus maintaining continuing bonds 00:11:25 – Why grief doesn't have a finish line 00:12:01 – Modern society has outsourced death 00:13:17 – Moving inward instead of moving on 00:13:33 – Sponsor: Manna Vitality 00:15:28 – How Mexico celebrates ongoing relationships with ancestors 00:16:16 – Madagascar, Ghana, India, and global grief traditions 00:18:15 – Why rituals help us process loss 00:19:30 – Allowing yourself to truly feel 00:20:27 – Remembering Sandra Lee Olien 00:21:36 – A mother's unconditional love 00:22:41 – How love creates courage and confidence 00:23:32 – Letting go while honoring another person's choices 00:24:26 – Celebrating kindness, resilience, and stubborn strength 00:25:25 – Feeling his mother's presence after her passing 00:26:17 – Love is an active practice 00:27:25 – Why nothing important should remain unsaid 00:28:20 – The five regrets of the dying 00:29:29 – Living your own life instead of someone else's expectations 00:30:10 – Work, vulnerability, friendship, and choosing happiness 00:31:24 – Death as the other side of SuperLife 00:31:54 – The greatest fatal convenience: assuming there's more time 00:32:57 – Responsibility, forgiveness, and radical honesty 00:33:29 – Grief and gratitude can exist together 00:34:22 – Say the thing.

The conversations we avoid, the forgiveness we postpone, the love we leave unspoken, and the dreams we delay all become painfully clear when we're reminded that none of us is promised more time. Grief isn't something to conquer or rush through. It's love continuing to exist after physical presence has ended. And perhaps the greatest tribute we can offer those we've lost is to live with more honesty, more courage, more vulnerability, and more love while we're still here."

From April 16, 2020: On this episode of Lawfare's Arbiters of Truth series on disinformation, Evelyn Douek and Quinta Jurecic spoke with Camille François, the Chief Innovation Officer at Graphika, where she works to identify and mitigate disinformation and misinformation online. On April 15, Graphika released a report on an Iranian influence operation focused on COVID-19, an operation blaming the United States for supposedly creating the virus and praising China's response to the pandemic. Camille discussed what Graphika found and how this campaign compares to similar operations in the past—like another campaign from Ghana that Graphika helped uncover, which was linked to Russia and posted content aimed at black Americans. And they discussed the “ABC framework” that Camille has developed to understand disinformation campaigns.To receive ad-free podcasts, become a Lawfare Material Supporter at www.patreon.com/lawfare.
