Miguel is joined by Dana DuBari (national co-coordinator, Black Alliance for Peace Solidarity Network) and returning guest Robert Wilson (author of The Football Manifesto and Club Handbook) about the Anti-Fascist Football Coalition and its boycott campaign for FIFA to move World Cup 2026 matches from the U.S. Dana explains the coalition's origins in 2025 through the North South Project's people-centered human rights framework and outlines a two-phase strategy moving from mass outreach to coordinated on-the-ground resistance in World Cup host cities; citing concerns about militarization, ICE presence, travel restrictions, and safety. Additionally, Miguel, Robert, and Dana discuss FIFA's preferential treatment of the U.S. and Israel compared with past bans of other countries, Robert discusses the parallels to Brazil's World Cup/Olympics experience, and Dana also discusses organizing examples like Kansas City's opposition to a new jail tied to the tournament.* Anti-Fascist Football Coalition Website: https://peoplescenteredhumanrights.com/move-the-games/* Endorse the Campaign: http://bit.ly/EndorseNowJoin the Global Network for the Advancement of People(s)-Centered Human Rights: http://bit.ly/GNPCHR* Join the Anti-Fascist Football Coalition!

Survivors of Jeffrey Epstein's abuse are continuing to speak out as more documents tied to his network come to light, describing the lasting psychological damage and the years of silence that followed their exploitation. One survivor, Joanna Harrison, explained that going public is not about attention but about reclaiming control after years of trauma and suppression. Others described experiences on Epstein's private island, emphasizing not just what happened to them, but how the aftermath—fear, isolation, and a lack of accountability—has lingered long after the abuse itself ended.Their accounts also underscore how Epstein's connections to powerful figures remain central to the story. Allegations and scrutiny involving Prince Andrew, as well as renewed attention on figures like Bill Clinton, are again being brought into focus as survivors question how Epstein maintained protection for so long. They argue that these relationships are not peripheral but essential to understanding the scope of the operation, and that despite document releases, the full extent of who enabled Epstein—and how he was shielded—has yet to be fully exposed.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:‘This is my way of trying to breathe': Epstein survivors speak out about abuse | The Independent

Tommy and Ben break down the expanding web of corruption around President Trump — from a bombshell report revealing the UAE royal family's stake in the Trump family crypto venture, to the global fallout from the release of the Epstein Files. They also dig into Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard's role in “investigating” insane foreign election conspiracies, a mysterious, top-secret whistleblower complaint that Gabbard has kept from Congress, the impact of brutal winter conditions on the war in Ukraine, Egypt's role in Sudan's civil war, why Americans should care about a separatist movement in Alberta, Canada, and the last place you'd ever expect to find a World War I artillery shell. Then, Ben speaks with Ali Vaez of the International Crisis Group about what's unfolding in Iran after the regime's brutal crackdown.

Matthew Stafford is a venture capitalist, angel investor, and co-founder of Nine Others—a global entrepreneur network spanning 5,000 founders across 50 cities—who transformed from school dropout to successful investor by proving that authentic, give-first relationships create more wealth than transactional networking.3:00 - Matthew explains the Nine Others concept: monthly dinners for 10 people where founders share their biggest challenge by answering "What's keeping you up at night?" The community has run for 14 years and inspired his new book of the same title.7:20 - School dropout story: Matthew shares the uncomfortable reality of dropping out after weeks at college, feeling lost in his early 20s, before finding his path through IT work and eventually earning a computer science degree at Durham University at age 27.10:45 - The turning point: Seeing his now-wife graduate sparked his return to education. He proved he could excel academically while surrounded by 18-year-olds with straight A's, learning to balance work, study, and life.18:30 - Building Nine Others: Started with simple dinners to help founders solve problems together. Matthew deliberately enabled connections without trying to capture value, trusting that "being helpful without expectation" would compound over time.28:15 - Give-first philosophy: "If I tried to capture things short term it wouldn't last five minutes." Matthew contrasts his approach with transactional networkers who only make introductions when there's something in it for them.35:40 - Investment approach: Focuses on knowing founders deeply before investing, understanding their sustainability and motivation. At early stages, the people behind the business matter more than the product.54:09 - Long-term greedy: Matthew references Guy Spier's concept, explaining how 10 years of being helpful, honest, and trusted creates "super easy" opportunities that feel like shortcuts but are actually the result of patient relationship-building.56:27 - The real shortcut: "How do you make wealth creation really easy? Know the right people, have them come to you, watch them build big businesses. That's the shortcut—doing that stuff and then having it easy."Podcast Program – Disclosure StatementBlue Infinitas Capital, LLC is a registered investment adviser and the opinions expressed by the Firm's employees and podcast guests on this show are their own and do not reflect the opinions of Blue Infinitas Capital, LLC.

We're excited to bring back a powerful Money Tales conversation with Cicley Gay. In this encore episode, we revisit Cicley's journey from scarcity to abundance. As the founder of The Amplifiers and now Chair of the Board of Black Lives Matter's Global Network, Cicley's insights into money, mindset, and meaning are as relevant today as ever. Whether it's the bag-lady syndrome or the fear that money will vanish no matter how much we earn, Cicley's story reminds us that personal awareness is the first step toward a healthier financial mindset. As the visionary founder of The Amplifiers, a pioneering social enterprise at the intersection of cause and communications, and Chairwoman of the Board for the Black Lives Matter, Cicley brings a wealth of expertise to the forefront of social justice initiatives. She embarked on her civic service journey by participating in two terms in AmeriCorps, then assumed a pivotal position as the founding director of STAND (Students Take Action for New Directions), where she empowered students by educating them on the ramifications of federal budget allocations on under-resourced communities. Cicley's unwavering dedication to uplifting marginalized communities is shown through her decade-long commitment to catalyzing change at The Women's Sports Foundation. In her roles as the founding director of GoGirlGo! and later as the National Director of Education and Alliances, she tirelessly spearheaded initiatives aimed at expanding access to physical activity for millions of young women in under-resourced areas across the nation. Her passion for mentorship and empowerment further propelled her to serve as the Director of National Initiatives at the National CARES Mentoring Movement, where she played a central role in establishing a multi-million-dollar national mentoring initiative for children, earning the financial support of the U.S. Department of Juvenile Justice. Cicley's impact extends beyond her professional achievements. She has been recognized for her outstanding contributions, receiving accolades such as the President's Volunteer Service Award from the Obama Administration in 2013 and the Catalyst Award from the Global Center for Social Change through Women's Leadership in 2015. Additionally, Cicley is a proud member of the inaugural class of WEI (Women's Entrepreneurship Initiative) and has been honored as one of Georgia's 40 Under 40, awarded a SPANX Red Backpack grant for Women's Entrepreneurship, ATL+ most powerful women in Atlanta in 2024 and 2025 and one of SUCCESS magazine's 50 Women of Impact in 2025. She holds an honorary Doctoral degree from Trinity International University. Her greatest accomplishment was winning “Mom of the Year '' as a mom to three sons. Cicley often says, “I spent decades intentionally preparing my sons for the world, I am now focused on also preparing the world for my sons.” Take Action and Make a Difference Learn how leadership, mentorship, and thoughtful philanthropy can create lasting impact—for yourself, your community, and the world.

In this special episode of Why Distance Learning, the tables turn—Seth Fleischauer steps into the guest seat as co-hosts Tami Moehring and Allyson Mitchell interview him about the purpose, design, and future of Global Learning Live, Banyan Global Learning's next-generation experiential global learning program. They explore what authentic global learning really requires in today's classrooms—and why the medium of live virtual learning matters more than ever.Most schools want to build cultural competence, empathy, and real-world communication skills, but:Finding reliable global partners is inconsistent and often falls apart mid-year.Language learners rarely get opportunities to use English in meaningful, real-world contexts.Teachers lack simple, low-prep ways to bring global learning into existing schedules.Field trips and international travel are expensive and inaccessible for most students.The result? Global learning remains an aspiration, not a system.However, Banyan's Global Learning Live is structured, scalable model that connects students worldwide through live field trips, global collaborations, and authentic showcase moments. Seth shares how 20 years of partnership with Tsai Hsing School led to the creation of an experiential cycle that prepares students not only for academic success, but for a rapidly changing, interconnected world.What the program delivers:Live Virtual Field Trips Bringing students into real places—Portland bridges, Renaissance fairs, and more—with authentic “whoa” moments that make learning unforgettable.Global Student Collaborations Cohorts, not brittle partnerships—designed to reduce dropout risk, increase diversity, and ensure ELL accessibility.Authentic Purpose for Language Learning English isn't a worksheet—it becomes the tool students use to communicate across borders and share their original ideas.A Low-Overhead, High-Impact Design Schools can join four-week pilots with one live class per week + a showcase and asynchronous global exchange.ELL-Ready, Teacher-Friendly Materials Built to make participation meaningful for all levels, not just native speakers.Impact to date:More than 42,000 student years of distance learning delivered.Students report increased confidence expressing original ideas in English.Meaningful growth in perspective-taking, curiosity, and cultural competence.Practical steps educators can take—whether or not they join the pilot.1. Bring the world into your classroom through personal live video. Use your own life, community, or experiences as cultural text. Even small shifts build perspective-taking.2. Integrate short, purposeful global exchanges. Asynchronous collaboration—sharing artifacts, reflections, or questions—can be powerful without live schedules aligning.3. Join the Global Learning Live Spring Pilot. Schools receive a free 4-week experience including:One weekly live sessionA live virtual field tripA collaborative artifact exchangeAccess to a global cohort of classrooms across continents4. Start planning for sustained global engagement. Seth describes the future vision: a global network with diverse cohorts, built-in supports for ELL learners, and eventually a FERPA-compliant platform designed for authentic collaboration at scale.Episode LinksGlobal Learning Live – Spring Pilot Sign-UpCILC.org – Schedule Virtual Field Trips, Including Banyan's Bridges of Portland Trip

The Muslim Brotherhood and Its Global Network. Cliff May discusses the Muslim Brotherhood (MB), the progenitor of Hamas, founded in 1928 after the Ottoman Caliphate's abolition. The MB's goal is to establish a new Islamic empire. Qatar is highly supportive, hosting Hamas leaders, while the UAE and Saudi Arabia have banned the MB. Turkish President Erdoğan is considered MB-adjacent and sympathetic, supporting Hamas and potentially viewing himself as a future Caliph, despite Turkey being a NATO member. 1882 CAIRO

Hey team! Today I'm talking with Nick Jonsson, a best-selling author, executive coach, and co-founder of Executives' Global Network. Nick is the author of Executive Loneliness: The 5 Pathways to Overcoming Isolation, Stress, Anxiety & Depression in the Modern Business World. His work focuses on helping leaders tackle isolation, burnout, and addiction while finding healthier, more sustainable ways to succeed. Now I realize that doesn't seem particularly ADHD focused, but I thought that this would be a good interview to take because adults with ADHD have a substantially increased risk of substance use disorders. And so while Nick's work doesn't specifically cover ADHD, there is still a lot that you can glean from it. In our conversation, Nick shares his own journey through loneliness, denial, and alcohol addiction, and how vulnerability and connection became essential tools for his recovery. We dig into practical strategies for opening up in safe spaces, replacing harmful coping mechanisms with meaningful activities, and creating accountability systems that support long-term well-being. We also touch on how social media and other modern habits can quietly feed into loneliness, and what it takes to build resilience against them. If you'd life to follow along on the show notes page you can find that at HackingYourADHD.com/248 YouTube: https://tinyurl.com/y835cnrk Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/HackingYourADHD This Episode's Top Tips Frame recovery as replacement, not deprivation. When looking to break out of unhealthy coping mechanisms, be they alcohol, social media, or some other addiction, deliberately plan what will give you that same connection without the negative costs. Having planned positive alternatives like exercise, hobbies, or group activities can make all the difference in following through with your intentions. Watch out for the “gray zone” of addiction; you don't need to wait until hitting rock bottom to start changing habits. If you are questioning your relationship with alcohol, social media, or other damaging habits, take the time to reflect on what is really driving those habits. Remember, you don't have to make something worse before making it better. When you can, volunteering in support groups or mentoring others not only helps them, but it can also reinforce your own sense of belonging and purpose.

"Innovate with us. Don't just issue an RFP—explore the art of the possible." — Dino Trevisani, Senior Vice President & Head of the Americas Region, Tata Communications In this in-depth conversation with Technology Reseller News Publisher Doug Green, Dino Trevisani outlines Tata Communications' strategy to deepen its U.S. presence by leveraging the company's expansive global infrastructure, deep industry expertise, and focus on end-to-end “digital fabric” solutions. Trevisani clarifies the scope of Tata Communications' business—often mistakenly conflated with other Tata Group companies—highlighting its capabilities across subsea fiber optic cables, cloud interconnectivity, IoT, security, customer interaction services, and live media streaming for global events such as Formula One and NFL Thursday Night Football. Looking at mid-2025 trends, Trevisani identifies three major forces shaping CIO priorities: Global supply chain and manufacturing shifts — Companies relocating or expanding operations require complex, compliant, and secure communications networks that span multiple countries. Network rationalization — Enterprises are seeking to consolidate and secure disparate networks, driving down costs and complexity. Edge computing and AI readiness — Preparing infrastructure today to support robotics, AI, and real-time applications that will demand near-100% network uptime. Trevisani's U.S. growth strategy targets companies with more than half of their operations outside the country—where Tata Communications already has dominant market presence—and those seeking to simplify complex, multinational communications environments. He stresses that the company's collaborative global leadership model and innovation-focused acquisitions position it as a proactive partner for clients facing rapid technology and market changes. The discussion also touches on opportunities in rural and underserved areas, the critical importance of subsea cables to the global economy, and the need for programmable, intelligent networks that can adapt to future technology shifts without costly infrastructure overhauls. Trevisani's advice for enterprises: fully understand your current network assets, anticipate where your market is heading, and work with innovation-minded partners to design flexible, resilient infrastructures.

Do you have a story you'd like to share on TWTDNH or are you a subject matter expert who would like to shed light on any of the topics I cover? Shoot me a message! Last episode, we mourned the consequences of untreated PTSD. This time, we confront something far more calculated: a story of entitlement, control, and the deadly cost of leaving.Sergeant Amy Colbert had done the unimaginable—survived war zones, brought daughters into the world, and chosen freedom after years of abuse. Days after returning from deployment, she packed up her life.What followed was a chilling truth: for some, being left isn't just rejection—it's justification for violence. This episode unpacks the story of a devoted mother, soldier, and woman who was finally ready to walk away. It explores what happens when power, ego, and entitlement collide.Sources:
In this sweeping series of conversations, the host and callers delve into the explosive implications of declassifying the Epstein files—and why Donald Trump's tepid support for doing so has raised eyebrows. From Trump's acknowledgment that innocent people could get swept up in the revelations, to speculation that his own name appears in Epstein's flight logs, the discussion traces a tangled web linking Mar-a-Lago, the Clintons, Ghislaine Maxwell, and global elites. Listeners draw connections to the Wuhan lab, Hunter Biden's investment ventures, the Metabiota scandal, and a pattern of institutional cover-ups that transcend partisan politics. The segments highlight the curious silence of Democrats, the mainstream media's selective outrage, and the unsettling possibility that Epstein's operation was just one thread in a vast network of blackmail, influence peddling, and geopolitical maneuvering. With references to Eyes Wide Shut and theories about a sprawling deep state, the show underscores how every tug on this thread reveals yet another hidden layer of corruption—and why so many powerful interests want the truth to stay buried.
Jeffrey Epstein wasn't just a financier or predator—he was the keystone of the most sophisticated blackmail and control operation in modern history. This wasn't about money or power. This was about creating an unbreakable web of compromise that would ensure the global elite's darkest secrets remained forever buried while they controlled world events from the shadows. This explosive full-length investigative documentary reveals how Epstein's operation connected world leaders, tech moguls, entertainment icons, and shadowy intelligence agencies in a network so vast and so compromising that his "suicide" was inevitable. We're talking about systematic blackmail operations, mind control experiments, and connections to classified programs that most people would find impossible to believe. Our investigation uncovers never-before-revealed evidence of how Epstein's island wasn't just a playground for the elite—it was a research facility where advanced psychological manipulation techniques were tested on victims while powerful figures were recorded in compromising situations. The blackmail material collected there didn't just buy silence—it bought complete control over global decision-making. From his mysterious financial empire to his connections with intelligence agencies, from his access to cutting-edge technology to his role in suppressing whistleblowers and truth-tellers, we expose how Epstein became the ultimate insurance policy for a system that thrives on secrecy and control. His network included not just the wealthy and powerful, but scientists, researchers, and technicians working on classified projects that would terrify the public. Mystery enthusiasts and truth-seekers know that some operations are too dark to fully expose—and this episode proves why. The Epstein network wasn't just about exploitation; it was about creating a system where anyone who might threaten the established order could be permanently silenced through blackmail, intimidation, or worse. We'll reveal how his operation connects to other mysterious deaths, unexplained disappearances, and the systematic suppression of information that could expose the true nature of how our world is really controlled. The elite's game isn't just about wealth—it's about maintaining absolute power through absolute compromise. From private islands to government facilities, from corporate boardrooms to underground installations, this documentary exposes how one man's operation became the lynchpin holding together a global conspiracy that continues to operate even after his death. Stream exclusively on Spreaker for the uncensored version with classified document references, or find us on Amazon Music (ask your Alexa about Epstein conspiracies), Apple Podcasts, Spotify, iHeartRadio, and everywhere truth-seekers get their elite reality checks. Some networks are too dangerous to fully expose—this episode tells you why.
