When Stacey Heale’s husband, Greg, was diagnosed with terminal cancer, life became a blur of caregiving, grief, and trying to hold a family together with two small children and no time to waste. Overnight, Stacey became a caregiver, medical advocate, emotional buffer, and the person holding all the impossible pieces. In this tender and fiercely honest conversation, Stacey and Kate talk about what it means to love someone all the way to the end, and then somehow keep living. They explore the invisible labor of caregiving, the loneliness of anticipatory grief, and the weird sacredness of the small things that break you. There are no perfect endings here. Just the beauty and brutality of trying to live inside a love that doesn’t get to last. Heads up: There’s some strong language in this episode—because sometimes life is just too much for tidy words. In this conversation, Kate and Stacey discuss: Why we grieve the ordinary things like school plays and grocery store noodles What it means to love someone without believing in soulmates The quiet devastation of living in the “before and after” The strange glow of early grief and what happens when it fades If you liked this episode, you’ll also like: John Green: Chronic not Curable Clover Stroud: The Rituals of Grief Tembi Locke: Grief of the Almosts Watch clips from this conversation, read the full transcript, and access discussion questions by clicking here or visiting katebowler.com/podcasts.

This is for the CHROs, Heads of People, and operators ready to plan for people, not just positions.If you believe long-term success starts with understanding the humans who build it, this one's for you.

Donald Trump made trafficking a huge part of his 2024 presidential campaign, promising to get the TRUTH about the powerful men who raped the children provided to them by Epstein and his associates.And it was all a lie.In the biggest rug pull of 2025, it appears their fiery rhetoric and moral outrage was FAKE AS HELL.Yesterday, FBI Director Patel and Deputy Director Bongino appear in what looks like a hostage video with Maria Bartiromo stating emphatically that ‘Epstein Killed Himself” … just trust us bro.The gaslighting here is intense y'all. This is the complete opposite of what they have been alleging for YEARS.On the heels of the Pam Bondi Epstein Binder Debacle, this is more evidence that the Trump Administration has absolutely no intention of pursing justice regarding Epstein and more importantly his criminal network which is likely still in full operation, under new management.Which brings us to Andrew and Tristen Tate. The self admitted pimps, rapists and pornographers and darlings of Trump and MAGA Inc.The brothers are younger, more vicious, violent and sadistic versions of Epstein and are accused of dozens of similar crimes, alleged by almost 70 victims in Romania and the United Kingdom. There are multiple investigations of the brothers pending in the United States.So why is Trump, once again protecting accused child sex traffickers?Last month it was reported that the Trump administration authorized official, diplomatic protection for the Tates via Richard Grenell in his capacity as ‘presidential envoy for special missions' in Munich, according to Romanian officials.It makes absolutely NO sense, unless you understand that Epstein to the Tates, Donald Trump has ALWAYS protected sexual predators. And now, the brothers are going on offense launching frivolous lawsuits against some of the most influential and effective investigative reporters, to intimidate them and shut them up.Today we talk to one of those reporters, Nate Livingstone of Milk Bar TV. We will get a full report on the status of the Tate trials and their strange similarities to the Epstein Network.Join the Rumble LIVE chat and follow my Rumble Page HERE so you never miss an episode: https://rumble.com/c/TheShannonJoyShowSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Fans of George Smiley, John le Carré's legendary spymaster, have reason to celebrate. In a rare double coup for the espionage world, Nick Harkaway—le Carré's son—has announced The Taper Man, a new Smiley novel arriving in 2026, while The Spy Who Came in From the Cold will receive its first-ever stage adaptation in the West End this autumn. The announcement marks a major return of the “Circus,” le Carré's iconic fictionalised British intelligence service, and the literary rebirth of one of spy fiction's most enduring characters. Join Spybrary - the ultimate community for spy fiction fans. The Taper Man: Smiley Heads Stateside Set in 1965, The Taper Man picks up 18 months after the events of Harkaway's bestselling Karla's Choice and places George Smiley in unfamiliar terrain—America. The novel explores Smiley's pursuit of a communist network on the US West Coast, threading together geopolitical paranoia with moral ambiguity in classic le Carré fashion. The story unfolds amid the tumultuous backdrop of the Civil Rights movement and the Vietnam War, with Smiley navigating tensions with the CIA ("the Cousins") while unravelling Soviet infiltrations that stretch back to the 1950s. “It's time to meet our American Cousins,” Harkaway says. “We're following the breadcrumbs of a messy debacle in Helsinki all the way to California, uncovering the truth of Karla's 1950s network and pursuing Roy Bland into the USSR.” Publishing director Harriet Bourton of Viking describes The Taper Man as “an extraordinary new addition to the iconic literary world of John le Carré,” praising Harkaway's ability to honour the legacy while making it unmistakably his own. Smiley on Stage: The Spy Who Came in From the Cold at Soho Place Alongside the novel news, spy fans will see Smiley on stage for the first time this November, when The Spy Who Came in From the Cold—le Carré's 1963 classic—premieres at @sohoplace in London. Directed by Jeremy Herrin and adapted by acclaimed playwright David Eldridge, the production follows a successful run at Chichester Festival Theatre. Rory Keenan stars as Alec Leamas, the embittered British agent at the heart of the novel, with Agnes O'Casey playing Liz Gold. George Smiley will be portrayed by John Ramm. Clare Cornwell, director of the le Carré estate, says: “We are delighted to be celebrating the return of the Circus and George Smiley through these two new projects.” The John le Carré Legacy Continued Nick Harkaway, the fourth son of David Cornwell (John le Carré), previously completed the posthumous publication of Silverview and edited A Private Spy, a collection of his father's letters. In Karla's Choice, he took the bold step of writing new fiction within the le Carré universe—an effort praised by critics and readers alike. Watch our interview all about Karla's Choice with Nick Harkaway. With The Taper Man, Harkaway deepens his claim to the Smiley legacy while expanding the geopolitical canvas of the saga. For longtime fans of le Carré, and the next generation discovering his work through adaptations and new fiction, 2025 may just be the most thrilling year since Smiley first came in from the cold.

This episode is a love letter to all of us standing at the edge of the unknown.With the school year ending and the summer holding more questions than answers, I share from my own life the real, raw process of navigating uncertainty post-divorce. From ex-husband drama to nursing school limbo, from ICE raid trainings to food rescue volunteering, I talk about the tools I'm using to show up on purpose, no matter what chaos is swirling.You'll hear:The core question that's guiding me right now: “Who do I want to be no matter what happens?”Why I hired a coach to help with emotional eating, and how that simple act reflects who I'm becoming.How volunteering, tarot, and saying YES to late-night concerts (with naps) are part of my spiritual path.What it means to hold space for worry without letting it run the show.The role of silence, stillness, and story in shaping a powerful, meaningful life.I also share a deeply personal story about the loss of my son Jacob—and why it taught me everything I need to know about control, fear, and being fully present.You'll leave this episode with:Practices to anchor yourself when life feels in fluxIdeas to define your values through action, not predictionPermission to not know and still live with intention, strength, and joy

Episode 4498: Trump Heads To The Capitol; Calling Out Hypocritical Spending

2025 marks the eightieth anniversary of Germany’s surrender and the fall of the Third Reich. Likewise, World War II is the single most studied conflict in human history. But most Western accounts offer a one-dimensional interpretation: the war was a noble crusade against fascism, creating a convenient parable about good and evil. But this depiction ignores a far messier reality. But what went through the minds of the actual heads of state that led their nations through the war? Did they fight according to our understanding, or did they want to defend their nations’ global empires and ancient legacy? A case can be argued that World War II was not a battle in which democracy triumphed over totalitarianism but rather a massive colonial war waged by rival empires. The war formally ended the era of British and Japanese colonialism but established in their places the highly militarized Soviet and American states, whose access to nuclear weapons threatened the possibility of annihilation. As we grapple with the legacy of the war and its influence on geopolitics today, historian and today’s guest Paul Thomas Chamberlin urges us to reconsider the conflict from a new perspective in his book “Scorched Earth: A Global History of World War II.”See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

David and Richard take a few moments before their head out to another red carpet premiere at Cannes to give Rebecca a call to talk about the latest screenings at the fest. They first discuss Wes Anderson's 'The Phoenician Scheme', before diving deep on some of the high-profile celebrity directorial debuts that have hit the Croisette. And they reveal which director -- Kristen Stewart, Scarlett Johansson, or Harris Dickinson -- pleasantly surprised them with their skills behind the camera.To join Little Gold Men's Book Club, please vote on our summer reading list here.

Sharpen your puzzle skills and grab your art supplies, because this week on THE BLIND RAGE PODCAST, we're tackling JIGSAW (2002)—no, not that one. This isn't some sadistic game of survival with creepy dolls on tricycles. This is an ultra-low-budget slasher about an art class that bites off way more than it can chew when they're tasked with assembling a “jigsaw man” for their final project. Bad idea? Absolutely. But it gets worse. Once Frankenstein's discount cousin is complete, he decides to get creative…with murder. Heads roll (literally), the body count rises, and the acting is as questionable as the script, but does JIGSAW deserve a spot in the horror junkyard, or is it a weird little gem worth piecing together? We're diving in with our usual dose of blood, sarcasm, and dark humor to find out.

Max Pearson presents a collection of the week's Witness History interviews from the BBC World Service. Our guest is Dr Elizabeth Abbott, writer, historian and author of the book, "Sugar: A Bittersweet History".First, we confront the dark history of sugar. We hear how a researcher in the 1990s uncovered the unethical aspects of Sweden's Vipeholm experiments in the 1940 which led to new recommendations for children to eat sweets just once a week.And, how Mexico, a country which had one of the highest rates of fizzy drink consumption in the world, approved a tax on sugary soft drinks in 2013. Then an event which shaped the second half of the last century - On 14 May 1955, the leader of the Soviet Union and Heads of State from seven European countries met to sign the Warsaw Pact.Plus, the story of how two rival electricity pioneers, Nikola Tesla and Thomas Edison brought electricity to the world. Finally, we hear from Finnish singer Marion Rung on winning the 1980 Intervision Song Contest, the USSR's answer to Eurovision. Contributors: Dr Elin Bommenel - academic Dr Simon Barquera - director of health and nutrition research at The Institute for Public Health of Mexico Dr Elizabeth Abbott - writer and historian Otto Grotewohl - German politician Mark Seifer - biographer of Nikola Tesla William Terbo - relative of Nikola Tesla Marion Rung - Finnish winner of Intervision song contest 1980(Photo: sugar cubes and fizzy drinks, Credit: Anthony Devlin/Press Association)

Prairie High School in the Battle Ground School District is headed to a statewide tournament this weekend. But it's not for a traditional sport like soccer, baseball or football — it's for esports. Esports, like many other sports, have players compete as individuals or in a team in a video game against others. Prairie High School took home first prize in a statewide championship last fall in “Overwatch 2,” a team-based hero shooter game. On Sunday, one of the teams will head to Lynnwood to compete again for another statewide title.  Simeon Redberg is a science teacher at the school and the coach of the team. Cody Sigler is a senior and team captain who was recently awarded an esports scholarship to attend Winthrop University in the fall. They both join us to share more on the world of esports at the high school level.

Guest Host Mike Opelka talks about Trump in the mideast, RFK in Rock Creek and more!
