A spiritual school in Victoria teaches that we each have a spiritual guide who we can rely on to help us through life, and that the couple who run the school – Ian and Pearl Rogers – sit on a council alongside entities who have lived many lifetimes before this one. Students are lucky enough to gain access to incredible knowledge through this council, which boasts Leonardo Da Vinci, Mahatma Gandhi, and Lady Di amongst its members. But forum posts dating back to 2012 allege that Sphinx Spiritual has been operating as a cult for many years. It's only now that former members have started speaking out.Part 2 is already available to Patreon supporters, and will be released on the main feed on Wednesday 27 May.Full research sources listed here.

In this episode, I'm talking about the real meaning behind being “high maintenance” — and why it has nothing to do with being fake, superficial, or materialistic.A lot of women want the results: the confidence, the body, the clear skin, the healthy hair, the lifestyle… but not enough people talk about the maintenance required to sustain it.From fitness and routines to skincare, hair care, and self-discipline, this episode breaks down how consistency shapes the way you look, feel, and carry yourself.Because the truth is:The glow-up isn't the hard part.The maintenance is.
On today's episode of The Therapy Crouch, we're back for another Ask Me Anything and things get unexpectedly heated… over PAINT. Abbey Clancy and Peter Crouch dive into a listener dilemma about kitchen colours, which quickly spirals into a full-blown debate on Abbey's obsession with the infamous “bone” shade. From “50 shades of bone” to Peter questioning his entire marriage contract, it's chaos from the start.Abbey leans into her interior design expertise, dropping surprisingly detailed recommendations (and proving she definitely knows her stuff), while Peter isn't entirely convinced—especially when talk turns to gold floral wallpaper and dream living rooms. The pair clash over style, money, and what really matters when building a home, leading to a deeper conversation about whether a house is just a house… or something much more meaningful.Plus, the gang answer your questions on relationships, from navigating design disagreements with your partner to planning the perfect 15-year anniversary without breaking the bank—featuring some seriously tempting travel tips (Greece might be calling…). Expect laughs, honesty, and a glimpse into how differently couples can see the same life decisions.If you want to submit an Agony Ab to the podcast - hit the link belowhttps://docs.google.com/forms/d/1rAKDST4HU_8al_aWpOlys3TRJrWvDV-84piVdlOOjU4/edit00:00 Introduction02:20 Kitchen Colour Dilemma & “Bone” Debate05:30 Abbey's Interior Design Tips07:30 Dream Home Disagreements09:45 Passion vs “High Maintenance”10:45 What Makes a House a Home?12:10 Beds, Sleep & Luxury Must-Haves13:00 15-Year Anniversary Dilemma14:00 Budget Travel & Greece Recommendations18:00 Relationships, Marriage & What Matters23:00 Final Thoughts & OutroTo contact us:Email: thetherapycrouch@gmail.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/thetherapycrouchpodcast/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@thetherapycrouchWebsite: https://thetherapycrouch.com/For more from Peterhttps://twitter.com/petercrouchFor more from Abbeyhttps://www.instagram.com/abbeyclancyOur clips channelhttps://www.youtube.com/channel/UCZntcv96YhN8IvMAKsz4Dbg Hosted on Acast.

Screenwriters Hannah Bos (HBO's Somebody Somewhere), Kim Krizan (Before Sunrise, Before Sunset) and Selina Lim (Sex Education, Hanna) on building writing partnerships, developing characters from the inside out, and finding your way into a writers' room. You'll learn Why a writing partnership only works when you can separate your ego from your ideas. How seven years of making weird theatre in Brooklyn quietly set the stage for an HBO show. What it takes to write a quiet, character-driven show in a TV landscape built for plot. How a master's thesis on a diarist turned into one of the most beloved screenplays of the nineties. How Before Sunrise was built from index cards on a living room floor. Why thinking about the product kills the work, and what to focus on instead. The case for starting with character before plot, and letting the story follow. What breaking into TV actually looks like. How to set the tone in a writers' room so the ridiculous ideas can surface. A practical approach to dialogue.

Writer, actor and director Ben Sinclair is best known as co-creator and star of the HBO series High Maintenance.

I've known Ben a little bit, for a long time, and wanted to take this opportunity to hear more about his current journey with(out) weed, and also to have an open discussion about intentional use and conscious uncoupling when it comes to cannabis.

Pretend we made a witty "third and taking-too-long" pun, because that's what we -- and guest Kim "Best Thing" Reed -- thought about Glen Powell vehicle Chad Powers. It isn't bad, but between the first-drafty jokes and getting stuck between two tones, we're not sure you should watch all the way to the end zone. Okay, let's ditch the football puns to go Around The Dial with On Brand With Jimmy Fallon, Kim's recent-reality overview, and Sarah's High Maintenance rewatch; and let's see if the panel respected "Authority," Sarah's L&O: SVU Canon pitch. Nicole Beharie won, Mid-Century Modern lost, and we juggled a hot potato of HBO series "lifers" in Game Time. Pair your podcast app with your Cybertruck's sound system and join us! GUESTS

In this conversation, Jim McDonald and Jonathan Gregg explore a variety of themes, including parenting, the dynamics of living in New York City, the journey of performance and acting, mental health, and the impact of social media on personal identity. They discuss the importance of authenticity, the role of anger in society, and the significance of personal growth. The conversation also touches on fitness and the unique experiences of being a stay-at-home dad, as well as the cultural commentary that arises from their respective experiences.(Experimenting with AI-generated show notes on this one. No idea if it will make any difference in discoverability.)Jonathan is the only guest who has both been on this show and appeared in the MCU (Jessica Jones). Also, he's the only guest whose whole ass I've actually seen (HBO's High Maintenance, Season 2, Episode 1).

If you've ever wanted a breakthrough in love or life, this conversation is your invitation to explore the gap between where you are and where you want to be — and start creating the beliefs, boundaries, and connections that will close it. In this episode of HEAL with Kelly, I sit down with The Opposite of Settling author, creator, and mindfulness expert Case Kenny — best known for his viral red handwritten quotes on Instagram — to talk about how the language we use, the trust we extend, and the clarity we command can transform our relationships and our lives. We dive into why “settling down” might be the worst sales pitch for love, the hidden cost of breadcrumbing, and the power of high-maintenance love rooted in reciprocity. Case shares how he turns prompts into powerful self-realizations, why leading with energy instead of matching it gives you clarity faster, and how visualizing your future like it's already a memory can rewire your mindset. We also discuss making trust your default, using regret as a compass, and the simple but life-changing art of listening to yourself — then speaking to yourself with intention. This episode is packed with fresh perspectives, practical tools, and heart-opening AHA's to help you stop settling and start living from your fullest, truest self.

Support The Channel By Getting Some REEL REJECTS Aparrel! https://www.rejectnationshop.com/ With the Severance Season 2 garnering HUGE critical acclaim and a slew of Emmy Nominations (including Outstanding Drama Series + Lead & Supporting Actors), Greg & John clock in at last for their Severance Reaction, Recap, Commentary, Analysis & Series Movie Spoiler Review!! Join us as we dive into the mind-bending world of Severance, the hit Apple TV+ sci-fi thriller series created by Dan Erickson and directed in its early episodes by Ben Stiller (Tropic Thunder, Escape at Dannemora). The show follows Mark Scout (Adam Scott – Parks and Recreation, Step Brothers), an employee at Lumon Industries who has undergone a mysterious “severance” procedure separating his work and personal memories into two distinct consciousnesses. In Episode 1 (“Good News About Hell”), we're introduced to Mark's eerie work environment, his co-workers Helly R. (Britt Lower – Man Seeking Woman, High Maintenance), Irving Bailiff (John Turturro – The Big Lebowski, O Brother, Where Art Thou?), and Dylan George (Zach Cherry – You, Crashing), as well as his enigmatic boss Harmony Cobel (Patricia Arquette – The Green Mile, Sharp Objects). The unsettling onboarding of Helly R. sets the tone for Lumon's strange corporate culture. Episode 2 (“Half Loop”) delves deeper into the rules and restrictions of the severed floor, with tense moments like Helly's repeated escape attempts, Irving's mysterious hallway wanderings, and the ominous first hints of “the break room.” Outside of work, Mark begins to question the limits of his own divided life. The dual timelines and haunting tone make for standout sequences that have quickly become fan favorites. Greg & John unpack the symbolism, foreshadowing, and corporate dystopia while spotlighting standout performances from the cast, including Christopher Walken (Catch Me If You Can, The Deer Hunter) as Burt Goodman and Tramell Tillman (Hunters, Elementary) as the intimidating Mr. Milchick. From Lumon's cryptic slogans to Helly's chilling resignation video, we break down all the details in this Severance deep-dive.

On today's Take 2 with Jerry & Debbie our topic is: Do You Have a Relative that is High Maintenance?
In this episode of Dear Goddess, I take you inside one of the most unexpected and most profound spiritual experiences I've had: a conscious weed ceremony that turned into a quantum healing journey into pleasure, shame, and feminine embodiment.We also explore the everyday moments that reveal how deeply shame and conditioning still live in our bodies, like witnessing a woman apologize for being “high maintenance” simply for asking for the coffee she ordered.This episode is a love letter to the woman who's done apologizing for taking up space, asking for what she wants, and living in devotion to her pleasure.Inside this episode, I share:
