Healing That Ends in Beauty: Plant Medicine & Conscious Integration with Dr. Richard Grossman, LAc, OMD – Episode 452   Ayahuasca doesn't hand you a cure; it unlocks the healer already inside you. The visions may fade, but the capacity for pure, unconditional love remains. In this episode, host Peter Fenger sits down with Dr. Richard Grossman, a licensed acupuncturist, Doctor of Oriental Medicine, and author of “Trust and Forgive: The Medicine of Your Life”. Dr. Grossman's lifelong dedication to the healing arts began in the wake of profound early trauma, sparking a fascination with the interconnected power of plants and the human mind. After training in Los Angeles and studying in Beijing under a World Health Organization program, he spent decades weaving together Oriental medicine, functional medicine, and deep spiritual practice. His extensive work with Ayahuasca and sound healing, shaped by years of study alongside indigenous shamans in Ecuador and Peru, has evolved into a unique synthesis of Amazonian shamanism, energy medicine, and multisensory ceremony. Today, Dr. Grossman guides individuals toward profound emotional, physical, and spiritual transformation, always rooted in a singular, core intention: helping others step out of suffering by discovering the source of joy within. Join us as we explore his journey from early trauma to a lifetime of healing, diving deep into the therapeutic dimensions of plant medicine, the role of sacred music, the integration of ceremonial insights, and how personal transformation ultimately contributes to collective healing.   For more information about “Trust and Forgive: The Medicine of Your Life” by Dr. Richard Grossman, please visit: https://www.amazon.com/Trust-Forgive-Medicine-Journey-Starts/dp/B0DCD87XN6 For more information about Dr. Richard Grossman and his work, please visit: https://heartfeather.com If you would like to subscribe to The Medicine of Your Life newsletter, please visit: https://heartfeather.substack.com/subscribe

Can trauma live beyond our personal memories? In this powerful conversation, Dr. Kelly Kessler sits down with Doctor of Oriental Medicine Richard Grossman to explore ancestral wounds, somatic healing, forgiveness, plant medicine, and the hidden burdens we carry in the body. Together they discuss trauma stored in the nervous system, past-life experiences, ancestral healing, emotional release, and why true healing may begin when we stop reliving the story and start listening to what the body remembers. Whether you're curious about ayahuasca, forgiveness, trauma healing, or the connection between mind, body, and spirit, this episode offers a thought-provoking perspective on what it means to heal deeply.Richard Grossman, L.Ac., O.M.D., Ph.D. is a Doctor of Oriental Medicine who has practiced energy healing and integrative medicine in Los Angeles for decades. His clinical work draws on acupuncture, Oriental medicine, and somatic approaches to healing — disciplines that attend to what the body holds long after the conscious mind has moved on.In 1984, a plant medicine ceremony led by an elder in Mexico opened something unexpected. Grossman encountered visions of what felt like other lifetimes: a Nazi concentration camp, the jungles of Vietnam, ancient Rome and Egypt. It was the beginning of a long inquiry. He attended the 2005 Iquitos International Amazonian Shamanism Conference, deepening his engagement with traditional plant medicine healing, and in the years that followed became a facilitator of those medicines himself.Through plant medicine and somatic healing work, he encountered what felt like an unbroken chain of trauma reaching back to the earliest moments of human self-awareness — past-life visions, ancient wounds, and a prehistoric clearing he recognized as the place it all began. Whether those experiences were past lives, ancestral memory, or something else entirely, he cannot say. But the healing was real. Feather on the Heart, his first novel, is what emerged.He is also the author of Trust and Forgive: The Medicine of Your Life (2024). Grossman lives and practices in Los Angeles. He is available for interviews, speaking engagements, book club conversations, and events focused on integrative medicine, plant medicine, and healing.Connect with Dr. Richard Grossman:https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/251497882-feather-on-the-hearthttps://www.heartfeather.comhttps://www.amazon.com/Feather-Heart-Time-Threads-Novel-ebook/dp/B0GX7BB1ZKConnect with Kelly:Ready to go deeper?If this episode resonated, start with my free Self-Abandonment Audit — a powerful first step to uncover where you may be putting everyone else first, overriding your needs, or talking yourself out of what you know is right for you.Get the audit here:https://drkellykessler.com/selfauditReady for more support?

This Day in Legal History: Wallace Stands in the Schoolhouse DoorOn this day in 1963, Alabama Governor George Wallace physically stood in the doorway of Foster Auditorium at the University of Alabama to block the registration of Vivian Malone and James Hood, the two Black students whose enrollment had been ordered by a federal district court. Wallace's “Stand in the Schoolhouse Door” was the culmination of a long campaign of state defiance of federal desegregation orders that ran from Brown v. Board in 1954 through Cooper v. Aaron in 1958 — the case in which a unanimous Supreme Court told the Little Rock school district, and by extension every state actor, that federal constitutional rulings are the supreme law of the land and that state officials may not nullify them.President Kennedy responded to Wallace's stand by issuing Executive Order 11111, which federalized the Alabama National Guard, and ordering Deputy Attorney General Nicholas Katzenbach down to Tuscaloosa to confront the governor. Wallace gave a long speech invoking states' rights and Tenth Amendment sovereignty, then stepped aside, and Malone and Hood walked in and registered. That night, Kennedy went on national television and delivered the civil rights address that put the Civil Rights Act of 1964 onto the national agenda. The legal and political throughline matters: the schoolhouse door, the executive order federalizing the Guard, the televised address, and the omnibus civil rights legislation that followed were a single coordinated federal response to massive resistance, and the institutional habit they built — the willingness of the federal political branches to back federal court orders with whatever force is necessary — is the substrate on which the modern enforcement of civil rights law sits. Whether that habit holds up under contemporary pressure is one of the live constitutional questions of our moment.The “Anti-Weaponization Fund” saga we have been following all week reached at least a partial resolution on Wednesday when Judge Leonie Brinkema of the Eastern District of Virginia declined to extend her temporary restraining order against the program into a preliminary injunction. The reason, in essence, is that the Justice Department has now formally represented to the court, in writing and through acting Attorney General Todd Blanche, that the $1.8 billion fund is “not going forward.” Brinkema took DOJ at its word for present purposes and dissolved the TRO, which under standard mootness doctrine is the right call when a defendant credibly commits to abandoning the challenged program. But she also did something practical: she warned the government in plain terms not to “play possum with this court,” language that gives the plaintiffs a built-in mechanism to come back fast if the fund quietly re-emerges under a different name.The substantive theory the plaintiffs were pressing — that the fund is an unappropriated expenditure of public money, that the underlying Trump-IRS settlement was a litigation in which the United States was never really adverse to the President in his personal capacity, and that the program's payout criteria are based on political characterizations of past prosecutions rather than any neutral standard — is now preserved for another day rather than litigated to judgment. The practical lesson is the durability of voluntary-cessation doctrine: a government defendant who is willing to abandon a program in court usually wins on mootness, but the cost is real, because future revivals get scrutinized against the prior representation. Watch the Federal Register and the DOJ component-level budget submissions for the next six months — if there is a successor program coming, those are where the first signal appears.Judge declines to halt “anti-weaponization fund” since Blanche says it's dead, but warns DOJ not to “play possum” | CBS NewsA coalition of environmental and tribal-nation plaintiffs filed suit in the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia on Wednesday seeking to block a U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service-approved land exchange that would transfer 715 acres of the Lower Rio Grande Valley National Wildlife Refuge to SpaceX, in return for 683 acres of privately owned land elsewhere. The plaintiffs are the Center for Biological Diversity, Save RGV, the Carrizo/Comecrudo Nation of Texas, and the South Texas Environmental Justice Network.The legal theory of the case is unusually multi-statute: the complaint alleges violations of the National Wildlife Refuge System Improvement Act of 1997, the National Historic Preservation Act, the National Environmental Policy Act, and the Administrative Procedure Act, with the central administrative-law argument being that the Fish and Wildlife Service's environmental analysis failed to grapple seriously with impacts on endangered ocelots, aplomado falcons, and a long list of migratory species whose habitat the refuge was designed to protect when Congress created it in 1979. The plaintiffs describe this as one of the largest national-wildlife-refuge land exchanges outside Alaska, and the suit asks for vacatur of the exchange decision rather than damages — the standard APA remedy.The political and infrastructural backdrop is hard to miss: SpaceX's Starbase facility at Boca Chica has been expanding into the Lower Rio Grande Valley for years now, and the exchange would consolidate the company's footprint on land previously held for the protection of one of the last remaining ocelot ranges in the country. The merits of the case will turn on the rigor of the FWS environmental analysis. Expect a request for a preliminary injunction within weeks.Lawsuit challenges Trump administration's land swap with SpaceX in Texas | The Washington PostA Los Angeles County jury on Wednesday added $22 million in punitive damages to the $176 million compensatory verdict already entered against socialite and former philanthropist Rebecca Grossman and former Major League Baseball pitcher Scott Erickson, bringing the total civil award to the Iskander family to roughly $198 million.The underlying facts of the case are stark: in September 2020, Grossman and Erickson left a Westlake Village restaurant after drinking and street-raced separate Mercedes SUVs through a residential neighborhood, with Grossman striking and killing two young brothers, Mark and Jacob Iskander, then 11 and 8, as they crossed a marked crosswalk with their parents.Grossman was convicted of two counts of murder in 2024 and is serving 15 years to life. The civil case the family brought is the wrongful-death companion, and the punitive damages award the jury added on Wednesday is the part that does the most policy work: the jury split the punitive award $21 million against Grossman, $1.17 million against Erickson, which under California's reprehensibility-and-net-worth framework reflects both the much greater direct culpability of Grossman as the driver and the substantial disparity in their respective financial positions.The case is notable beyond the parties involved because of how clean it is on the standard punitive-damages analysis the Supreme Court laid out in BMW v. Gore and State Farm v. Campbell: high reprehensibility, a relatively modest single-digit ratio of punitive-to-compensatory damages, and an underlying compensatory award that itself was supported by the gravity of the loss. Watch for an appeal that focuses on the compensatory rather than the punitive number — that is where the appellate leverage actually is.Jury Ups Philanthropist, Ex-Pitcher Crash Verdict To $198M | Law360 This is a public episode.

Your next meal or beverage might be a chance to help protect your eyesight. We walk through the exact spices Dr. Mark R. Grossman uses almost every day and why they matter for natural eye care, especially if you're concerned about macular degeneration, cataracts, glaucoma, or stubborn dry eye from nonstop screen time. This is a practical, kitchen-first conversation from Dr. Grossman, the integrative medical optometrist and licensed acupuncturist with decades of clinical experience. We start with turmeric and its active compound, curcumin, a potent natural anti-inflammatory. Curcumin helps reduce inflammation associated with dry eye syndrome. It supports eye cells under oxidative stress. You'll hear simple prep tips you can use tonight. Find out why it's smart to prepare turmeric with ground black pepper and a healthy fat like olive oil.Then we get into saffron, the “expensive” spice that may be worth it for vision support. We discuss research linking saffron supplementation to improved retinal function in early macular degeneration, including enhanced contrast sensitivity and visual acuity. Learn easy ways to use tiny strands of saffron in warm water, tea, rice, baked goods, and broth. We also cover paprika, which contains lutein and zeaxanthin. These special antioxidants are often described as internal sunglasses that help filter blue light and support the macula.Learn how cinnamon protects the eye vessels by helping to balance blood sugar. Finally, we mention two bonus spices: ginger for inflammation and circulation, cayenne for vitamin A and tear support, and garlic, including fermented black aged garlic. Subscribe for more natural eye health strategies, share this with a friend who lives on screens, and leave us a review if these tips help you build a simple daily routine.

On today's pledge drive edition of A Public Affair, host Esty Dinur is in conversation with former host, Zoltán Grossman about grassroots resistance to creeping dictatorship in the US and the resilience of Indigenous communities around the world. They dedicate the program to the memory of Dr. Al Geddicks, who Grossman calls “the quintessential scholar-activist.” He was the driving force behind the anti-mining movement and author of Resource Rebels.  They discuss where Grossman finds hope, including in the backlash against ICE raids and detention centers. He says that there is a growing break in the longstanding bipartisan consensus for military and intelligence spending, even though the Senate passed the ~$70 billion budget reconciliation package for immigration enforcement. He calls this “anti-weaponization” fund another form of “internal repression” that will fund paramilitary militias.  Grossman is also optimistic about ecological and Indigenous resilience in Western Washington where he lives and teaches. He describes the wins for resource co-management and resistance to US military interventions, and why these actions seem more possible in Washington than they do in Wisconsin. They also discuss Palestine, Grossman's Hungarian lineage, and the fall of Viktor Orbán. Note: This pledge drive interview was edited to remove parts of the show dedicated to station fundraising. We thank our listeners for their generous support. Zoltán Grossman has since 2005 been a Professor in Geography and Native American ​ Indigenous Studies at The Evergreen State College in Olympia, Washington, and previously taught at UW-Eau Claire.  He earned his Ph.D. in Geography and Graduate Minor in American Indian Studies at UW-Madison in 2002. He is a longtime antiwar, antiracist, and environmental organizer, and was a co-founder of the Midwest Treaty Network in Wisconsin.  He is a past co-chair of the Indigenous Peoples Specialty Group of the American Association of Geographers. He was co-editor of Asserting Native Resilience: Pacific Rim Indigenous Nations Face the Climate Crisis (Oregon State University Press, 2012). He is author of Unlikely Alliances: Native Nations and White Communities Join to Defend Rural Lands (University of Washington Press, 2017).

In this episode of the A is for Architecture Podcast, I spoke to architect and historian, Vanessa Grossman, Assistant Professor of Architecture at the University of Pennsylvania's Weitzman School of Design, about her 2024 book, A Concrete Alliance: Communism and Modern Architecture in Postwar France, published by Yale University Press. Sampling only the most tantalizing soupçon of the book's ideas, Vanessa and I discuss the relationship between the French Communist Party and postwar modernist architects, and how for them concrete served not just as a symbol of avant-garde taste but also political commitment. Architects like Oscar Niemeyer, Renée Gailhoustet, Paul Chemetov and Patrick Bouchain, and the networks of actors and actants, programs and artefacts that were activated to deliver social housing and cultural and working spaces in communist municipalities across France, as a means of delivering, ultimately, a countersociety of architects that sought to put a new vision of modernism to work towards a better version France's nascent Fifth Republic. Vanessa can be found at work here and she's on the socials too; the book is linked above.If you want and can, please support the A is for Architecture Podcast by listening in and sharing it, or by either subscribing on Patreon or making a gift via Buy Me a Coffee. +Music credits: Bruno Gillick Image credit: Jean Biaugeaud, showing the hall of the Raspail housing tower by Renée Gailhoustet, 1968.

Tune in here to this Thursday's edition of the Brett Winterble Show! Brett kicks off the program by talking about what he sees as ongoing political “wins” and the aggressive use of executive power in Washington. He argues that current leadership is effectively leveraging authority to push policy goals, particularly on immigration and national security. Brett highlights a reported move by federal officials to penalize so-called sanctuary cities by restricting airport access, framing it as a tough but necessary step to enforce immigration laws. He contrasts this with criticism of Democratic leaders, portraying them as out of touch and ineffective. We’re joined by Gary Grossman from the world of bestselling political thrillers to talk about his new novel The Midas Touch and the fascinating real-world ideas that inspired it. Grossman explains how the book blends history, mystery, and geopolitics into a modern treasure hunt centered around the missing pieces of the Rosetta Stone and a secret capable of manufacturing gold. He discusses collaborating with National Treasure creators Charles Segars and Orin Aviv to create a fast-paced summer thriller with global economic stakes.

Claudia Zonghetti"Stalingrado"Vasilij GrossmanAdelphiwww.adelphi.itTraduzione di Claudia ZonghettiA cura di Robert Chandler, Jurij Bit-JunanQuando Pëtr Vavilov, un giorno del 1942, vede la giovane postina attraversare la strada con un foglio in mano, puntando dritto verso casa sua, sente una stretta al cuore. Sa che l'esercito sta richiamando i riservisti. Il 29 aprile, a Salisburgo, nel loro ennesimo incontro Hitler e Mussolini lo hanno stabilito: il colpo da infliggere alla Russia dev'essere "immane, tremendo e definitivo». Vavilov guarda già con rimpianto alla sua isba e alla sua vita, pur durissima, e con angoscia al distacco dalla moglie e dai figli: «...sentì, non con la mente né col pensiero, ma con gli occhi, la pelle e le ossa, tutta la forza malvagia di un gorgo crudele cui nulla importava di lui, di ciò che amava e voleva. Provò l'orrore che deve provare un pezzo di legno quando di colpo capisce che non sta scivolando lungo rive più o meno alte e frondose per sua volontà, ma perché spinto dalla forza impetuosa e inarginabile dell'acqua». È il fiume della Storia, che sta per esondare e che travolgerà tutto e tutti: lui, Vavilov, la sua famiglia, e la famiglia degli Šapošnikov – raccolta in un appartamento a Stalingrado per quella che potrebbe essere la loro «ultima riunione» –, e gli altri indimenticabili personaggi di questo romanzo sconfinato, dove si respira l'aria delle grandi epopee. Un fiume che investirà anche i lettori, attraverso pagine che si imprimeranno in loro per sempre. E se Grossman è stato definito «il Tolstoj dell'Unione Sovietica», ora possiamo finalmente aggiungere che Stalingrado, insieme a Vita e destino, è il suo Guerra e pace.Vasilij Semënovič Grossman (Berdyčiv, 1905 – Mosca, 1964), scrittore e giornalista russo, è stato corrispondente di guerra per il quotidiano dell'esercito Stella Rossa durante la seconda guerra mondiale per più di tre anni, e proprio in questo cominciò a scrivere le sue opere di denuncia e di narrativa sul tema della guerra, tra le quali ricordiamo:  Il popolo è immortale (1943), Il libro nero - Il genocidio nazista nei territori sovietici (1941-1945), Tutto scorre... (pubblicato postumo in Germania nel 1970) e quella che resta forse la sua opera più importante, il romanzo fiume Vita e destino, sequestrato in Russia, dove furono distrutte tutte le copie, fu pubblicato postumo in Svizzera nel 1980Claudia Zonghetti è nata a Fano, ha studiato a Venezia e vive a Milano. Da una ventina d'anni traduce narrativa e saggistica russa. Tra coloro ai quali ha dato voce italiana figurano Bulgakov, Florenskij, Politkovskaja, Šalamov, Bunin, Grossman, Tolstoj e ora Dostoevskij. Sua è la traduzione dell'Anna Karenina comparsa nella serie delle Grandi traduzioni. Ha collaborato alla compilazione del Dizionario russo-italiano / italiano-russo di Julia Dobrovolskaja (Hoepli).

  The podcast episode begins with hosts Marcy Gordon and Beth Costa introducing the show (0:10-0:23) and expressing gratitude to sponsors like Ron Rubin and River Road Family Vineyards and Winery for supporting the podcast (0:24-0:48). They welcome guest Beth Grossman, a long-time listener and wine enthusiast visiting from Arlington, Virginia, who has been exploring Sonoma County since 1994 (0:49-1:16). Beth shares her journey of discovering wine country, starting with a wedding trip in Bodega Bay, which led to visiting 23 wineries in four days—a pace she humorously advises against (1:50-2:24). She reflects on the changes in Sonoma over the years, from quieter times with free tastings to the growth of tourism and lodging options, while noting that the region's friendly and welcoming vibe remains unchanged (2:34-3:09). Beth discusses her lodging preferences, often staying in Healdsburg or nearby areas like Dry Creek, depending on the trip's length and budget (3:28-4:23). She highlights the variety of accommodations, from Airbnbs to budget hotels, and reminisces about earlier stays at the Inn on La Plaza when it was just $85 a night (4:40-5:04). The conversation shifts to favorite wineries, with Beth expressing her preference for smaller, family-owned establishments where grape growing and winemaking are closely connected (6:12-6:24). She mentions favorites like Porter Creek, known for its intimate tasting room and outdoor seating, and Motion, a hub for experimental winemaking and a training ground for young winemakers (6:40-7:25). Other notable mentions include Dutton Goldfield, Iron Horse, and A. Raffanelli, with Beth encouraging listeners to explore lesser-known spots and embrace the diversity of experiences (8:40-9:06). Beth shares her journey into wine appreciation, which began with her early visits to Napa and Sonoma and evolved through learning opportunities at wineries (16:27-18:13). She emphasizes the importance of asking questions and participating in winery tours to deepen understanding and enhance the tasting experience (18:30-19:18). The discussion also highlights the value of pacing visits, mixing wine tasting with other activities like food pairings, vineyard tours, and exploring local attractions such as Armstrong Woods and Safari West (19:40-21:01). Beth humorously notes her preference for orderly nature, like vineyards, and shares her dream of spending a year in Sonoma to experience the seasons fully (20:38-21:19). The conversation touches on Sonoma's rich culinary scene, with Beth praising bakeries like Quail and Condor and Sarmantine, as well as restaurants like Parish Cafe and Dry Creek Kitchen (24:05-26:16). She also highlights unique local experiences, such as the California Artisan Cheese Festival, food truck parks, and community events like the Prune Packers baseball games (33:43-34:41). Beth's enthusiasm for Sonoma's welcoming atmosphere and collaborative wine community shines through, as she recounts stories of winemakers sharing knowledge and supporting each other (36:16-37:18). The episode concludes with a celebration of the Wine Road's 50th anniversary, featuring free wine tastings on June 20th (38:11-38:49). The hosts express their admiration for Beth's passion and knowledge, jokingly suggesting she become a personal concierge or guide for visitors. Beth reflects on how the podcast and her visits to Sonoma have been a source of relaxation and joy, reinforcing the region's charm and appeal (39:06-40:42).

Welcome to the NeurologyLive® Mind Moments® podcast. Tune in to hear leaders in neurology sound off on topics that impact your clinical practice.In this Mind Moments episode, Scott Grossman, MD, assistant professor of neurology and ophthalmology at NYU Grossman School of Medicine, discusses emerging research on inter-eye retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) asymmetry as a biomarker of prior optic neuritis in pediatric-onset multiple sclerosis (POMS). Drawing from data presented at the 2026 American Academy of Neurology Annual Meeting, Grossman explains how optical coherence tomography (OCT) may help improve diagnostic confidence in pediatric MS by identifying remote optic nerve injury, while also outlining how a 4-micron inter-eye RNFL difference emerged as the optimal threshold in this cohort. The conversation also explores the role of OCT within the updated 2024 McDonald Criteria, the feasibility of integrating OCT into routine neurology practice, challenges surrounding normative pediatric OCT data, and future research directions involving visible light OCT and broader population datasets. Looking for more Multiple Sclerosis discussion?

Col. Dave Grossman Everyone talks about bad leadership. But very few people take responsibility for becoming better leaders themselves. In Part 2 of this conversation, Conrad continues with Dave Grossman to explore what leadership really looks like inside first responder culture—and why so many organizations struggle with it. Grossman makes it clear: leadership is not about rank. It's about self-control, service, and consistency. They unpack the reality of toxic leadership, why it's not a new problem, and how pressure, poor selection, and lack of development contribute to it. But more importantly, they focus on what individuals can do—right now—to lead, regardless of their position. This episode is a direct challenge to anyone waiting for someone else to fix the culture. Because leadership doesn't start when you get promoted. It starts the moment you decide to show up differently. If you've ever felt stuck under poor leadership, this conversation will give you a new lens—and a new level of responsibility. Key Topics Covered Why toxic leadership is so common Leadership vs positional authority Leading up, down, and across The role of self-control in leadership effectiveness Servant leadership in high-stress environments How to influence culture without rank Encouragement, recognition, and building trust Key Takeaways Leadership is a daily practice, not a position You don't need rank to influence culture The best leaders serve, not command Recognition and encouragement are powerful leadership tools You can lead—even in a broken system Notable Quotes “Nobody respects your temper tantrum. They respect your calm.” “To be a better leader, you have to be a better person.” “Your job as a leader is to help them do their job better.” “Be the leader you wish you had.” Resources Mentioned Grossman's leadership and training materials Leadership development principles rooted in behavioral science Mastermind CTA If this episode challenged you to step up in your leadership, this is exactly what we're building inside the First Responder Leadership Mastermind, launching June 3. This is where we take these concepts and actually apply them—together, in a group of leaders committed to raising the standard.

Years after the tragic deaths of Mark and Jacob Iskander, the battle for accountability moves from the criminal courtroom to a civil jury, and the legal tactics on display are nothing short of a masterclass.#RebeccaGrossman #BrianPanish #NeilRockind #KillerCrossExamination #TrialTactics #LegalAnalysis #JusticeForMarkAndJacobNeil breaks down the 90-minute opening statement delivered by legendary trial attorney Brian Panish. Panish didn't just present facts; he built a narrative of "bad choices" and "accountability," using visceral imagery—comparing the impact of Grossman's SUV to a 4,800-pound car being dropped from a 12-story building.Key topics Neil discusses in this episode:The Power of the Narrative: How Brian Panish used the "speeding vs. racing" distinction to frame the entire case for the jury.The Defense's "Rush to Judgment" Strategy: Analyzing Esther Holm's attempt to pivot the blame toward a flawed investigation and away from her client.Visual Evidence as a Weapon: The tactical use of scene photos and vehicle data to establish "unavoidable" facts before the first witness even takes the stand.Opening vs. Closing: Why the opening statement in a case this emotional can often win or lose the trial in the first hour.About Neil Rockind - Neil Rockind is a trial lawyer.

We welcome back Wendy Grossman of Wendy's Vegetarian Kitchen for a chat about cooking with things that grow in the ground. Ray Graf hosts.

Imprisoned in the California Institution for Women in Chino, California, since 2024 for the murder of two young brothers killed in a hit-and-run, Rebecca Grossman is adjusting to a very different lifestyle than the one she was used to. The one-time publisher of a luxury lifestyle magazine and heir to a multimillion-dollar plastic surgery fortune hasn't taken her dramatic fall from grace lying down. Since being sentenced to 15 years to life for two counts of second-degree murder, Rebecca Grossman has tapped every resource available to her to avoid consequences, both criminal and financial. Her refusal to accept responsibility has weighed heavily on the family of the two victims, 11-year-old Mark and 8-year-old Jacob Iskander. On September 29, 2020 Rebecca was behind the wheel of a super-charged Mercedes-Benz that struck the boys in a crosswalk as their mother and younger sibling looked on in horror—having just barely survived themselves. An investigation into the crash revealed Rebecca was under the influence of alcohol and Valium, and perhaps more damningly, was engaged in a high-speed road race with her lover, former Major League pitcher Scott Erickson. After five years of conjecture and speculation, a jury will have the opportunity to decide once and for all on Erickson's level of culpability, and whether or not the Iskanders are owed a multi-million dollar sum from the Grossman's for the death of their two boys.   Subscribe to Jami's YouTube channel @JamiOnAir: https://www.youtube.com/@jamionair Follow Jami @JamiOnAir on Instagram and TikTok.

Col. Dave Grossman What if the very thing you've been told is breaking you… is actually making you stronger? In this conversation, Conrad sits down with Dave Grossman to unpack what really happens inside the mind and body under stress. From the physiological effects of high-pressure situations to the misunderstood nature of PTSD, this episode challenges one of the most common narratives in first responder culture. Grossman introduces the concept of post-traumatic growth—the idea that adversity, when processed correctly, doesn't weaken us… it strengthens us. He explains why elevated heart rate, anxiety, and mental replay aren't necessarily signs of damage, but signals that the body is adapting and preparing. You'll walk away with practical tools to manage stress in real time—simple, actionable techniques like controlled breathing and even something as basic as drinking water to regulate the nervous system. More importantly, this episode reframes how leaders should guide their teams through trauma—not by dismissing it, but by helping them understand it. This is not just about surviving stress. It's about learning how to grow through it. Key Topics Covered The difference between PTSD and post-traumatic growth What's actually happening in your body under stress Why perception determines performance Tools to regulate the nervous system in real time How leaders should guide others through high-stress experiences EMDR and separating memory from emotion Why most people are more resilient than they think Key Takeaways Stress responses are not always signs of damage—they can be signs of adaptation Leaders play a critical role in how trauma is processed Calm is trained, not automatic The body can be brought under control with simple, repeatable techniques Growth is possible—even after intense experiences Notable Quotes “This is not PTSD… this is what it feels like to level up.” “Two people can feel the same thing—one thinks they're broken, the other wants to do it forever.” “Breathing is a leash on the nervous system.” “The worse it gets, the calmer the leader needs to become.” Resources Mentioned EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) Grossman's books and training materials Call to Action If this episode resonated with you, share it with someone on your team. And make sure you're subscribed—because in Part 2, we shift from managing stress… to what leadership actually looks like inside real organizations.   +++++ FIRST RESPONDER WELLNESS PODCAST Order the PTSD911 Film and Educational Toolkit here: https://ptsd911movie.com/toolkit/ Web site:  https://ptsd911movie.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ptsd911movie/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ptsd911movie/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UClQ8jxjxYqHgFQixBK4Bl0Q Listen on Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/first-responder-wellness-podcast/id1535675703 Listen on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/2wW72dLZOKkO1QYUPzL2ih Purchase the PTSD911 film for your public safety agency or organization: https://ptsd911movie.com/toolkit/ The First Responder Wellness Podcast is a production of First Responder Wellness Solutions, LLC Copyright ©2026 First Responder Wellness Solutions, LLC - All rights Reserved.

Chuck And Julie Show with Chuck Bonniwell and Julie Hayden Eric Grossman on the State of the Colorado GOP and Trumps White House Correspondents dinner Brita Horn's final act before she resigned in disgrace as CO GOP Chair was to secretly go to court and mislead a judge into ordering that her personal attorney was owed $231,000 dollars and starting Friday can simply seize it out of Party bank accounts. Vice Chair Eric Grossman on how we are fighting back. Plus while Secret Service was dealing with an attempted assassination, journalists were stealing wine off the tables at the White House Correspondents dinner. This episode of The Chuck and Julie Show features an urgent discussion with Eric Grossman, Acting Chair of the Colorado Republican Party, regarding a dire financial "poison pill" left by the outgoing leadership. The conversation also covers the legal battle to close Colorado's primary elections and a scathing critique of security failures and media bias following a recent assassination attempt at the White House Correspondents' Dinner. The Colorado GOP Financial Crisis The Colorado Republican Party is currently facing an existential threat described as a "corporate poison pill." Outgoing chair Brita Horne and her personal attorney, Steve Klenda, allegedly reached a secret $231,000 settlement—a confessed judgment—just hours before her resignation. This settlement, which includes a staggering 18% interest rate, allows Klenda the legal authority to seize the party's bank accounts. Acting Chair Eric Grossman and hosts Chuck and Julie characterize this as a "fricking disaster" and "ethically reprehensible," suggesting the move was a calculated attempt to bankrupt the party and render it ineffectual for the upcoming election cycle. Grossman noted that despite repeated requests, the executive committee was never provided with invoices for these legal fees, and the party currently holds minimal assets to cover such a debt. The Legal Battle for Closed Primaries Beyond financial woes, the party is embroiled in a legal fight to close the Republican primary (Prop 108). Grossman argues that the current open primary system allows unaffiliated voters and even committed Democrats to "dilute" the Republican choice, citing data from Arapahoe County where a significant percentage of primary ballot requests came from voters who also participate in Democratic contests. The show critiques "establishment" Republicans and the NRCC for opposing this move, framing the struggle as a fight for the party's right to define its own identity and select its own candidates without outside interference. National Security Failures and Media Bias The discussion shifts to the assassination attempt at the White House Correspondents' Dinner, highlighting a massive security lapse where the suspect was able to assemble a weapon in a hotel foyer due to a lack of bag checks and sweeps. The hosts express disbelief at the "journalistic malpractice" following the event, specifically criticizing reporters for "looting" wine from the venue while the Secret Service dealt with the threat. Furthermore, they condemn Norah O'Donnell's 60 Minutes interview with Donald Trump, where she read the shooter's manifesto—which included labels like "pedophile" and "rapist"—back to Trump, a move he labeled "disgraceful." The Colorado GOP finds itself at a crossroads, battling what leadership describes as internal sabotage and external legal pressures. While the financial situation is critical, Acting Chair Eric Grossman remains defiant, urging the "grassroots" to maintain belief as they fight to "save the party from extinction."

Tune in this week as our three movie sommeliers react to a movie that was already prime for Cancelation in 2008, let alone in 2025. Ben Stiller leads the way in a movie so incredibly difficult to process, as Grossman points out, will need to get a fucking binding resolution from the United Nations!

This episode explores the surprising Ukrainian origins and remarkable cultural journey of Hava Nagila, one of the most recognizable songs in the world. The story begins with the melody itself — a nigun, a wordless Hassidic prayer tune sung since the mid‑1800s — which originated in a shtetl in Ukraine before becoming a global Jewish folk standard.The episode traces Pawlina's personal connection to Hava Nagila, from early encounters on television to the enduring emotional resonance the melody continues to hold. A chance conversation in Lviv with a Ukrainian man who identified as a born‑again Hassidic Jew sparked deeper curiosity about the song's Ukrainian roots and led to further research.That search culminated in discovering Hava Nagila: The Movie, a documentary by award‑winning American filmmaker Roberta Grossman. The film investigates the song's beginnings in Sadagora, Bukovina, where Grossman interviewed Ukrainian‑speaking locals, searched for traces of the Jewish community, and visited the ruins of a once‑great synagogue connected to the melody's origins. The documentary then follows the song's path to Palestine, where its lyrics were written, and through the upheavals of the world wars, the Holocaust, and the evolving identity of the Jewish people.Featuring interviews with cultural figures including Harry Belafonte, Connie Francis, Glen Campbell, and Leonard Nimoy, the film presents the song's spiritual and cultural layers with humor and depth. It also highlights the song's modern presence, from global pop culture to contemporary performances across Ukraine.Many of these performances can be found on YouTube, along with links on the Nash Holos website to additional videos and to places where Hava Nagila: The Movie can be purchased or rented.

In July 1911, Louise Beattie was found mortally wounded after a late-night drive outside Richmond, Virginia, and her husband insisted a stranger had stepped from the darkness and fired the fatal shot. But the story he told began to crack almost as soon as investigators looked more closely at the road, the evidence, and the life he had been hiding. What followed was a murder case filled with scandal, deception, and testimony that gripped the nation. In this episode, Southern Mysteries examines the death of Louise Beattie and the trial that turned a Virginia killing into one of the most infamous crimes of its time.

Chuck And Julie Show with Chuck Bonniwell and Julie Hayden Huge grassroots victory in the Colorado Republican Party Huge grassroots victory as Eric Grossman is elected Vice Chair of the Colorado Republican Party and he joins the show. The Chuck and Julie Show features an in-depth discussion with Eric Grossman, the newly elected Vice Chair of the Colorado Republican Party, regarding the urgent need for organizational professionalism. The conversation pivots from local party dysfunction and financial debt to broader national issues, including primary election strategies and international tensions involving Iran. The Push for Organizational Competency The primary focus of the discussion centers on the "embarrassing" state of current party leadership, highlighted by a farcical "straw-drawing" incident used to determine speaking orders at a recent meeting. Eric Grossman, who won his election by nearly 60%, emphasizes that his immediate priority is not sweeping policy changes but simply ensuring the organization can function as a professional entity. He argues that the party must "pour a new foundation" by running efficient, transparent meetings before it can hope to win statewide elections. There is significant criticism of the current Chair, Britta, for her lack of communication and the party's descent into over 230,000 of debt, contrasting her performance with former Chair Dave Williams, who managed to raise 2 million despite alienating some establishment figures. The Primary Strategy and Cultural Shift A major point of contention within the party is the "opt-out" from semi-open primaries. Chuck and Julie discuss the "jungle primary" as a threat supported by establishment Democrats and "uniparty" Republicans, which they believe dilutes the grassroots voice. Grossman advocates for a cultural shift where members must "show up and cast a vote" rather than relying on a corrupted proxy system that has historically allowed individuals to dictate outcomes. The hosts and Grossman agree that while policy debates are necessary, they should be secondary to establishing a "working group" that can move the party toward a winning culture by November. National Security and Media Critiques The dialogue shifts to national headlines, specifically Donald Trump's aggressive stance on Iran and his threats to target production facilities and desalination plants if negotiations fail. The hosts express skepticism regarding Iran's willingness to negotiate, suggesting they prefer "dying gloriously" to surrender. Additionally, they critique the media's role in leaking national security information regarding stranded pilots and mock a recent New York Times editorial error where "NATO" was incorrectly defined as the "North American Treaty Organization," using it as an example of the "paper of authority" losing its credibility. The discussion highlights a critical inflection point for the Colorado GOP. By electing Eric Grossman, the grassroots movement seeks to replace perceived "establishment" incompetence with foundational professionalism. The path forward relies on "baby steps"—fixing internal meetings and financial debts—before the party can effectively challenge the Democratic stronghold in the state.

A paper co-authored by 39 scientists called the Polyvagal Theory "untenable" — and now psychology influencers are announcing the Theory is "dead." But is it? I'm Justin Sunseri, therapist and member of the Polyvagal Institute's Editorial Board. That means I review work for Polyvagal Theory accuracy. So let me actually look at the claims. In this episode, I break down Paul Grossman's paper "Why the Polyvagal Theory Is Untenable." We need to objectively check whether his criticisms accurately represent what the theory actually says. Because if they don't, the counterarguments are moot.Links mentioned:Grossman's paper: https://www.clinicalneuropsychiatry.org/download/why-the-polyvagal-theory-is-untenable-an-international-expert-evaluation-of-the-polyvagal-theory-and-commentary-upon-porges-s-w-2025-polyvagal-theory-current-status-clinical-applications-and/ Porges' "The Vagal Paradox": https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38108034/ Grossman's ResearchGate: https://www.researchgate.net/post/After_30_years_of_polyvagal_hypotheses_is_there_any_direct_evidence_for_the_first_3_premises_that_form_the_foundation_of_the_polyvagal_conjectures Porges' response(s) to Grossman: https://www.clinicalneuropsychiatry.org/download/when-a-critique-becomes-untenable-a-scholarly-response-to-grossman-et-al-s-evaluation-of-polyvagal-theory/ Google NotebookLM: https://notebooklm.google.com

One is a missing persons investigation that has consumed the country for over a month with no arrest and one suspect still unidentified. The other is a murder trial built entirely on circumstantial evidence, currently anchored by two immunity witnesses who cannot agree on what drug was sold. Jennifer Coffindaffer — who spent years as an FBI Special Agent working the kinds of cases most people only follow in the news — has important things to say about both.This episode covers all three segments of our interview. On Nancy Guthrie, she decodes the investigative language coming out of the Pima County Sheriff's Department and the FBI — what "definitely closer" means, what the command center move to Phoenix signals, what the task force scale-down and Annie Guthrie's vehicle return tell us about trajectory. Then she goes deeper: the perpetrator's behavioral patterns at the 30-day mark, the pre-operational digital surveillance trail going back to June 2025, the million-dollar reward dynamic, and the human fracture points that investigators are counting on right now.On Kouri Richins, she delivers a full prosecution analysis through nine days of trial. The contradicting immunity witnesses, the weight of the digital evidence, Grossman's emotional testimony, the insurance beneficiary attempt, the delayed recall Christmas party statement — and her honest identification of the single most exposed point in the prosecution's architecture.Two cases. One FBI lens. The clearest analysis of both in one place.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Robert Joshua Grossman testified he had plans with Kouri the day Eric died, but she never showed up and eventually texted him “Eric has passed away.” Ritchins is accused of fatally poisoning her husband with fentanyl in order to get out of debt and spend her life with Grossman.

Day eight of the Kouri Richins murder trial in Park City, Utah delivered the most emotionally charged testimony of the case so far — and it came not from a forensic expert or a law enforcement officer, but from the man Kouri Richins was in love with while her husband was still alive.Robert Josh Grossman took the stand on the four-year anniversary of Eric Richins' death. He had moved to Utah for Kouri. She had bought him two trucks, gifted him a birthday trip to Saint Martin, and paid him $25,000 after Eric died. Prosecutors walked the jury through years of text messages — ending with Kouri's words just days before Eric's death: "If he could just go away and you could just be here. Life would be so perfect."Grossman broke down reading them. When the judge called a recess and asked if he needed to stretch his legs, Grossman said: "It ain't the legs."Prosecutors also used the day to show the jury who Eric Richins actually was behind closed doors — a man who had quietly consulted a divorce attorney in October 2020, built a trust naming his sister as trustee over $7.6 million in assets, and told his estate attorney that Kouri had used his power of attorney to take $250,000 of his money. He didn't revoke it. He said she was the mother of his children.About two weeks after Eric's death, Kouri and Grossman drove to the Uinta Mountains. During that drive, according to Grossman, Kouri asked him what it feels like to kill someone. At the time, he thought nothing of it. Looking back, everything looked different.The defense moved for a mistrial over newly disclosed information about Carmen Lauber. Kouri Richins has pleaded not guilty and is presumed innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?
