What if the home you lived in was a secret portal to 250 years of American history, connected to the Revolutionary War, the Kennedy assassination, and the Apollo 11 moon launch? For David Deputy, a retired brigadier general, historian, and former state trooper, that's exactly what he discovered when he moved into a 19th-century mill house in Delaware. In this episode of Productivity Smarts, host Gerald J. Leonard sits down with David Deputy, author of The Spring Grove Mill House, to explore how an eight-year investigative journey into the history of his home uncovered astonishing links to America's most defining moments. David shares how his childhood instincts, career as a major crimes detective, and intuitive leadership style all converged into a unique research process he calls "investigative history." Gerald and David dig into the neuroscience of gut instinct and intuition, what it means to be a quiet, observational leader, the discipline of working a 250-year-old cold case, and how patience and organization are the hidden engines of any long-term creative project. David also reveals why he structured his book to make readers flip to the last chapter first, a bold and brilliant storytelling device that puts the reader on a personal journey before the history even begins. Whether you're a history buff, a writer, a researcher, or simply someone curious about the story hidden beneath your feet, this episode will inspire you to start asking the questions beneath the questions. Ready to dig deeper? Listen now and discover how one ordinary home connects centuries of extraordinary American history.

The problem never happens because you were able to lead the group through it before it materialized." – David Deputy [15:11] "I could feel the stuff, and then I started digging and digging. It was eight years of investigating, because new things just kept popping up." – David Deputy [15:50] "To me, it was like a 250-year-old cold case. And this was the ultimate cold case." – David Deputy [17:22] "I have layer switches. I can turn my ego switch off and analyze everything. I have a logic switch and a skeptic switch — I can run through what I'm thinking and come to conclusions." – David Deputy [21:30] "Unfortunately, it took me 45 years to get to that point. I wish I'd figured it out in my 20s — but once you understand how your gut is tied to your heart and your brain, you can use it even better." – David Deputy [23:18] "It's human nature — we see things that are strange, but when we see them every day, they're not strange anymore. We stop asking why." – David Deputy [25:46] "I call it the Jimi Hendrix approach. He wasn't formally trained — he created a whole new way of doing it that was unique and ended up being very special." – David Deputy [30:48] "You can't rush it. You have to be organized in what you're doing so that you don't get stagnant. It wouldn't have been nearly as special if I had tried to rush through it." – David Deputy Resource and Links David Deputy LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/david-deputy-7a560952 Book: The Spring Grove Mill House Productivity Smarts Podcast Website - productivitysmartspodcast.com Gerald J.

Episode #554: Bruce Stewart, an early Western student and teacher in the S.N. Goenka Vipassana tradition, reflects on a lifelong search for spiritual meaning driven by curiosity, wonder, and a desire to understand life more deeply. The sudden death of his younger sister prompted early questions about life's meaning, while stories from traveling hippies kindled a desire to explore the wider world. Leaving New Zealand, Stewart worked his passage to Europe on a cargo ship and spent several adventurous years traveling through Europe and Africa and immersing himself in the hippie counterculture. Eventually Stewart found his way to a Sivananda ashram in Canada, where his spiritual interests were given structure. There he met his future wife, Maureen. Together they returned to New Zealand and founded one of the country's first yoga centers, creating a vibrant community centered on yoga, vegetarianism, retreats, and alternative culture. Later, Stewart took a vipassana course with John Coleman, a student of U Ba Khin; the experience was life-changing. Soon after, he and Maureen dissolved their yoga center and traveled to India to became involved with the fledgling Vipassana center at Dhamma Giri in Igatpuri, where they worked closely with S.N. Goenka. As the movement expanded, Stewart and Maureen were heavily involved in helping the tradition take root in the U.S. Yet over time, he became increasingly uneasy with organizational culture, leadership styles, and narratives of purity and authority. Historical study and deeper inquiry eventually led him to question long-held assumptions, and eventually his decision to broaden his practice and step down from his Senior Teacher responsibilities. Still, he remains grateful for the practice and its benefits, viewing his spiritual life as a series of valuable stages that collectively formed a rich, demanding, and deeply meaningful journey.
Michael McFaul explains that China's current global posture is deeply rooted in the "century of humiliation," a period of historical weakness that Xi Jinping is determined to never repeat. Under Xi's leadership, the state has become significantly more autocratic, utilizing advanced technology for domestic monitoring and total surveillance. McFaulpoints out that Xi is moving away from the market-driven ideas that fueled China's growth, potentially leading to future economic stagnation. Despite this tightening control, internal demands for freedom remain in regions like Hong Kongand Xinjiang, where people continue to resist state-led repression. (4)11925 SHANGHAI

How do we determine when a learner has truly mastered a skill? In behavior analysis, performance criteria such as "80% correct across two sessions" have become nearly ubiquitous. Yet despite their widespread use, many practitioners may be surprised to learn that these criteria have relatively little direct empirical support. In this episode, I'm joined by Drs. Sarah Richling and Dr. Daniel Fienup to discuss the history, research, and practical implications of mastery criteria in applied behavior analysis. Drawing on their independent lines of research, Sarah and Dan examine how different criterion levels influence skill maintenance and why behavior analysts should think carefully about what constitutes meaningful mastery. We begin by defining the terminology surrounding mastery and performance criteria and explore several important dimensions that are often overlooked, including criterion level, criterion frequency, supplementary variables, and units of analysis. The conversation then turns to the origins of the commonly used 80% and 90% thresholds. Although these criteria appear throughout ABA training and practice, Sarah and Dan explain that their widespread adoption may owe more to tradition than to empirical validation. We also discuss findings from their research comparing 50%, 80%, and 90% mastery criteria. Their studies suggest that higher performance criteria may produce stronger maintenance outcomes under some conditions, but they emphasize that practitioners should resist the temptation to adopt a new universal rule. Along the way, we explore: The distinction between mastery criteria and performance criteria. Why "80% correct" became so common in ABA. Historical influences from early behavior analytic and educational research. Research comparing 50%, 80%, and 90% mastery criteria. The relationship between mastery criteria and long-term maintenance. Why some behaviors may require near-perfect performance. The importance of considering the natural environment when setting performance standards. How units of analysis can affect instructional decision making. The risks of relying on aggregated data when teaching multiple skills. Generalization, maintenance, and supplementary variables. Lessons from Precision Teaching regarding fluency and functional mastery. Why performance criteria should be individualized rather than universally prescribed. Research opportunities for practitioners and graduate students interested in instructional design. Throughout the discussion, Sarah and Dan make a compelling case for moving beyond inherited rules and toward a more individualized, evidence-based approach to instructional decision making. Whether you're designing skill acquisition programs, supervising trainees, or simply curious about the assumptions that shape everyday practice, this episode offers a thoughtful examination of one of the most common—and least questioned—features of behavior analytic instruction. About the Guests Dr. Sarah Richling Sarah Richling is a Clinical Associate Professor at Auburn University and serves as Director of Auburn's Master's Program in Applied Behavior Analysis. She has more than two decades of experience as a practitioner, researcher, and educator, with interests spanning instructional design, performance criteria, and effective teaching practices. Dr. Daniel Fienup Dan Fienup is a behavior analyst and researcher whose work has focused on instructional variables that affect skill acquisition, maintenance, and educational outcomes. His research on mastery criteria has helped clarify the relationship between performance standards and long-term retention of learned skills.

Send us Fan Mail"Our Mission Mandate as ChristiansI. Introduction: The Core Nature of ChristianityThe Thesis: Christianity is inherently and fundamentally a missionary religion designed to convert others to faith in Jesus Christ. The Defect of Passive Faith: Any form of Christianity that does not actively bear witness to Jesus is explicitly labeled as defective, as the Bible strictly mandates this lifestyle. II. The Historical and Physical Proof of the ResurrectionThe Core Event: The mandate is rooted in historical reality: Jesus was crucified, buried, and physically raised from the dead 2,000 years ago in Jerusalem. Tangible Evidence over Isolation: * Jesus did not appear to just one person or in secret; he repeatedly manifested to groups of disciples (ranging from 8, 10, to 11 at a time). He proved his physical, bodily resurrection by speaking, allowing disciples to touch his wounds, and physically eating broiled fish. The 40-Day Instruction Period: Jesus spent 40 busy days on Earth post-resurrection, using his authority as King to instruct his followers on their vital mandate before ascending into heaven. III. The Fivefold New Testament Commission (Chronological Review)The speaker outlines how the critical mission to spread the message of Jesus is uniquely underscored by being recorded five distinct times in the New Testament: Commission 1: John's Account (The First Evening)Occurs on the evening of the resurrection behind locked doors. Jesus provides peace, shows his wounds, and sends them out with the model: "As the Father has sent me, even so I'm sending you.". He breathes on them to receive the Holy Spirit and speaks on the authority of handling forgiveness. Note on Thomas: Thomas misses this first meeting, doubts, but makes a grand confession of faith ("My Lord and my God") the following week. Commission 2: Luke's Account (The First Evening)Connected to the Road to Emmaus disciples returning to the 11 in Jerusalem. Jesus proves his physical nature by eating, then opens their minds to understand that his suffering and resurrection fulfilled the Law of Moses, the Prophets, and the Psalms. He commands that repentance and forgiveness of sins be proclaimed in his name to all nations, beginning in Jerusalem. Commission 3: Luke's Account in Acts (The Day of Ascension)Jesus corrects the disciples' focus from political timing (restoring the kingdom to Israel) to global witnessing. He promises the immediate power of the Holy Spirit to make them witnesses from Jerusalem to the ends of the earth. Commission 4: Matthew's Account (The Royal Commission)Takes place on a designated mountain in Galilee during the 40-day window. Jesus claims "all authority" in heaven and on earth. He issues the authoritative directive to go, make disciples of all nations, baptize them in the name of the Triune God, and teach obedience to his commands, backed by his perpetual presence. Commission 5: Paul's Account (The Ministry of Reconciliation)Focuses on the conversion and commission of Paul, a former chief persecutor of the church. Frames evangelism as being driven by the love of Christ because believers are entirely new creations. Defines the church's status as "ambassadors for Christ," entrusted with the message and appeal for the world to be reconciled to God. IV. Conclusion: The Universal Scope and Purpose of the MandateNot Restricted to the Apostles: The commission was explicitly not just for the original 12 disciples; it is binding for all believers across all time. A Shared, Joyful Responsibility: While some possess a distinct spiritual gift of evangelism, every Christian is expected to witness to Christ through both their spoken words and the actions of their lives. The Ultimate Goal: To share what God has done so that mankind can receive the forgiveness of sins, walk in eternal life, and be incorporated into the body of believers.

How did the relationship between Black and Asian communities become so complicated?In this episode of the Talk My Credo Podcast, the crew explores one of the most difficult conversations in modern American culture.

In this interview, Spencer Dalke talks with theologian and author Gerald Sittser about the rich history of Christian spirituality and what it means to live out faith in everyday life. Sittser describes spirituality as the lived expression of the Gospel, rooted in grace but practiced through disciplines like prayer, Scripture, and faithful obedience. Reflecting on voices from across church history, from early martyrs to desert monks, he highlights the importance of rhythms, resilience, and learning from past traditions that challenge modern assumptions. The conversation ultimately points listeners toward cultivating perseverance and faithfulness in a shifting cultural moment, emphasizing that true success in the Christian life is not power or influence, but steady devotion to Christ—even in weakness, struggle, or apparent failure. Reviewing historical expressions of spirituality in the church. Spiritual growth in wilderness, barrenness. How to pursue faithfulness and fortitude in biblical living today. “We will never understand Christian spirituality—what it is and what makes it unique—unless we grasp the significance of martyrdom. The early Christians died because they confessed Jesus Christ as Lord. … They believed that Jesus tolerates no rivals. When forced to choose, they chose to follow Jesus, no matter what the price.” “When Christianity is operating at its best, we're always going to be a threat … because our ultimate lord is Jesus. It's not a political party. It's not a presidential candidate. It's not an ideology. It's not a particular system of government. It's always Jesus the Lord.” Featured work: Water From a Deep Well: Christian Spirituality from Early Martyrs to Modern Missionaries Connect with Gerald Sittser on Facebook and at JerrySittser.com.

In Part 1 of this live Q&A episode of Retire With Style, Wade Pfau and Alex Murguia answer listener questions covering reverse mortgages, retirement withdrawal rates, Roth conversion strategies, tax-efficient retirement income planning, asset allocation decisions, and bond ladders. The discussion emphasizes that retirement planning rarely has one-size-fits-all answers, highlighting the importance of balancing taxes, investment risk, spending flexibility, and personal preferences. Wade also shares practical rules of thumb for effective marginal tax rates, explains why TIPS ladders can serve as a benchmark for safe withdrawal rates, and discusses how different portfolio allocations may lead to surprisingly similar retirement income outcomes despite varying levels of volatility. Listen now to learn more! Takeaways Paying down a reverse mortgage (HECM) is generally optional, but doing so can increase future borrowing capacity through a larger line of credit. Building retirement income "buckets" does not necessarily require moving money out of a 401(k); short-, medium-, and long-term buckets can often be created within the account itself. Most retirees would not benefit from withdrawing money from a tax-deferred account simply to build a taxable account, as it usually creates unnecessary taxes. Tax planning is largely about smoothing taxable income over time rather than creating large swings in income from year to year. For many retirees with less than roughly $3 million in assets, targeting a 12% effective marginal tax rate can serve as a useful rule of thumb when evaluating Roth conversions. Based on current TIPS yields, a 30-year inflation-adjusted TIPS ladder could support an estimated safe withdrawal rate of about 4.7%. Spending flexibility can often support higher withdrawal rates than rigid spending plans that require the same inflation-adjusted income every year. Historical research suggests that portfolios ranging from roughly 35% to 80% stocks have produced surprisingly similar sustainable withdrawal rates despite meaningful differences in volatility. Higher stock allocations may increase long-term legacy values, but lower stock allocations can provide a smoother retirement experience without significantly reducing sustainable spending. Retirement income bond ladders differ from traditional accumulation bond ladders because they are designed to match future spending needs rather than continuously reinvest maturing bonds.

On a spring evening in Londinium, Gaius and Germanicus philosophize on the decline of the American Empire, drawing parallels between modern leadership and historical Roman crises. They contrast current American hesitancy with the "impetuosity" of Rome, suggesting the US has entered a "straitened situation" mirroring the 3rd-century Romancollapse. They argue that internal domestic weakness and a "venal" establishment—which the public views as an "Epstein class"—have eroded the altruism of the American century. (1)81 BCE SULLA
Chris Chavez, Preet Majithia, and Mac Fleet unpack the best week of the 2026 outdoor season with Rome and Stockholm delivering back-to-back historic performances.Discussed in this episode:– Audrey Werro's 1:53.98: The third-fastest woman in 800-meter history, only the third woman ever under 1:54, beats Olympic champion Keely Hodgkinson (1:54.33 personal best, British record) in Stockholm. Historical context: the two women ahead of her — Kratochvílová (1:53.28, 1983) and Olizarenko (1:53.43, 1980) — are from countries that no longer exist and from the peak of the Eastern Bloc doping era. Many can regard Werro's 1:53.98 as the de facto clean world record.– Cooper Lutkenhaus wins the Stockholm men's 800 in 1:42.7: Diamond League debut. 17 years old. Junior year of high school in Texas. Beats Marco Arop (1:43.11), the former world champion and fourth-fastest man in history.– Mondo loses: First defeat since July 2023. 44-meet winning streak snapped– Noah Lyles wins the Rome 100m in 9.88: Noah typically builds slowly in the 100, but 9.88 is early and good. Jordan Anthony faded to fourth after looking promising at 60m.– Women's 200 landscape: Gabby Thomas runs 21.7 at the Lone Star Grand Prix in College Station — third fastest of her career; ulien Alfred has already run 21.86 in Rome, beating Melissa Jefferson-Wooden (her first loss in over a year). MJW bounced back in Stockholm with a 100m win and 10.84. If Shericka Jackson stays healthy, she's probably the pick.– Tate Taylor, 19.97: The second American high schooler to break 20 seconds in the 200. Hear Preet's full objection to the concept of high school records as a category– Looking ahead: LA Grand Prix this weekend. NCAA Championships in Eugene — Mac's pick is Simeon Birnbaum in the 1500, though Carter Cutting will be right there.____________Hosts: Chris Chavez | @chris_j_chavez + Preet Majithia | @preet_athletics + Mac Fleet | @macfleetProduced by: Jasmine Fehr | @jasminefehr____________SUPPORT OUR SPONSORSXENDURANCE: Xendurance Protein is designed specifically to help your body recover, rebuild, and get stronger after training.

Superstitions can seem irrational on the surface, but beneath them is something incredibly human - the need for meaning, comfort, and a sense of control in an uncertain world. In this episode, we explore the psychology of superstition - why the mind creates these beliefs, why they can feel so reassuring, and what they reveal about anxiety, ritual, hope, and the stories we inherit. We explore:• Historical origins of common superstitions• The role of pattern recognition and gut feelings• How rituals soothe anxiety and create a sense of certainty• When superstitions become self-fulfilling and shape performance• How magical thinking overlaps with OCD and anxiety• Why it's important to create our own magic in our 20s Watch on Netflix: HERE Follow Jemma on Instagram: @jemmasbeg Follow the podcast on Instagram: @thatpsychologypodcast Subscribe on Substack: @thepsychologyofyour20s For business: psychologyofyour20s@gmail.com Our favourite sources: https://www.bps.org.uk/psychologist/everyday-magic-superstition https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/abs/10.1177/0956797610372631 https://www.cambridge.org/core/journals/behavioural-and-cognitive-psychotherapy/article/abs/magical-thinking-in-obsessivecompulsive-disorder-and-generalized-anxiety-disorder/AAA4404A26637024E2E5D01B3F133928 The Psychology of your 20s is not a substitute for professional mental health help.

Holly Fretwell introduces the wildfire crisis, noting that 80 million federal acres require urgent restoration. She argues that historical policies like the 10 a.m. suppression rule and reduced timber harvesting have created dense, flammable forests. Consequently, the Forest Service has transitioned into a "fire company," prioritizing firefighting over active silviculture. (1)1915 WILDFIRE AUSTRALIA

This week we have not one, but two episodes for you!For this story, we travel back to December of 1908, when people in Russell and Adair counties in Kentucky were shaken after 12-year-old Mamie Womack failed to return home from school. Her disappearance that winter afternoon triggered a desperate search, as neighbors, family, and bloodhounds followed a trail through the woods that uncovered a horrible crime.As the hunt for answers widened, suspicion fell on Elmer Hill, a young man with ties to the Womack family, who also went missing. What followed was a multi-county manhunt involving posses, bloodhounds, and growing public outrage. Hill would eventually be captured after days on the run, but the case would not end in a courtroom.In this episode of Stories of Appalachia, Steve and Rod tell the story of Mamie Womack's disappearance and the chilling fate of the man thought to be responsible, another one of the Stories of Appalachia.
Elon Musk has officially set the price for the SpaceX IPO at 135 dollars per share, seeking to raise 75 billion dollars. This offering establishes a fully diluted valuation of 1.75 trillion dollars, cementing it as the largest IPO in United States history. The newly public entity is no longer just a rocket company, but a combined powerhouse featuring Starlink, an AI development lab via the recent XAI merger, and orbital computing infrastructure. While the revenue growth is staggering, particularly from Starlink, the company posted a net loss of nearly 5 billion dollars in 2025.In this episode, we break down the math behind paying 90 to 93 times revenue and compare it against industry giants like Nvidia. We also explore the structural risks for retail investors, including Elon Musk's 85 percent voting control and the massive mechanical demand expected from NASDAQ 100 index tracking funds. Finally, we share our disciplined framework for navigating the post-IPO window and explain why the greatest long-term investments often present better entry points than debut day.Key Topics DiscussedThe official SpaceX IPO pricing of 135 dollars a share and its massive 1.75 trillion dollar valuation.How the SpaceX and XAI merger transforms the public entity into a diversified space and computing business.A breakdown of 2025 revenue, showing Starlink driving 61 percent of total earnings.The reason behind the 5 billion dollar GAAP net loss despite generating 18.67 billion dollars in top-line revenue.The valuation multiple comparison between SpaceX at 90 times revenue and Nvidia at 25 to 30 times revenue.The impact of a dual-class share structure granting Elon Musk 85 percent of the voting power.How forced passive buying from NASDAQ 100 tracking funds could generate 8 to 12 billion dollars in immediate demand.The potential connection between the recent Bitcoin liquidation cascade and capital rotating into the SpaceX IPO.Key TakeawaysRetail investors buying at the IPO price are paying maximum price with maximum competition, similar to a real estate bidding war.The XAI merger is the primary driver of current unprofitability, burning approximately 14 billion dollars in cash recently.Investing in this IPO means buying price exposure to a narrative rather than traditional ownership rights over the business decisions.Institutional investors who secured pre-IPO allocations are highly likely to sell for profit into the retail market demand.Historical mega-IPOs like Facebook and Amazon demonstrate that the most advantageous entry points usually happen well after debut day.Connect & Take Action:Wealth Intelligence Brief: Text "WIB" to 844-447-1555 to get Matty's free macro data, real estate intel, and crypto signals delivered to your inbox 3 times a week.Imagos Income Fund: Text "INCOME" or "DEALS" to 844-447-1555 to learn more about Matty A's private debt fund targeting 10% fixed returns paid out monthly.

Don and Tom tackle investors' obsession with inflation protection and the financial industry's willingness to sell expensive products that promise impossible outcomes. Using PIMCO's Inflation Response Multi-Asset Fund as a case study, they explain why complex, high-cost inflation hedges often create more problems than they solve. The discussion explores historical inflation, why stocks remain the most effective long-term defense against rising prices, and the dangers of chasing investment magic. Listener questions cover retirement asset allocation at age 50, the role of bonds as retirement approaches, balancing Roth and traditional retirement contributions in a high-tax state, and the surprisingly small impact of foreign tax credits on international fund returns.0:05 Why investors constantly search for inflation-proof portfolios2:09 Historical inflation, Fed targets, and perspective on rising prices5:47 The endless appeal of inflation hedges6:15 Breaking down PIMCO's Inflation Response Multi-Asset Fund8:09 Why TIPS, commodities, and leverage aren't magic solutions10:57 Stocks as the best long-term inflation defense12:39 Listener question: Moving from 100% stocks toward retirement14:15 Risk tolerance versus age-based allocation formulas15:58 Building a bond allocation before retirement17:26 Small-cap value and international diversification considerations19:24 Roth versus traditional 401(k) contributions in New York21:44 The value of tax diversification and multiple retirement account types23:13 Countries that operate without personal income taxes24:19 Understanding foreign tax credits and international funds27:58 Why tiny tax differences shouldn't drive investment decisions28:14 Celebrating 1,900 Talking Real Money podcast episodes29:09 An advisor shares how the podcast helps her growing practice30:26 Working with a fiduciary advisor at AppellaQuestions?

(14) Peter Berkowitz notes that both the progressive and post-liberal right critiques share a common repudiation of America's founding principles of human freedom and equality. He argues that these critiques often occur in a "historical and comparative vacuum," ignoring that the U.S. remains a premier destination for those seeking personal liberty. Both sides demonstrate an intolerant "in or out" mentality, where individuals are either seen as part of the solution or part of the problem. Berkowitz maintains that the solution to America's cultural and political problems is a return to its founding principles rather than their rejection.1789 NEW YORK
