Welcome to ‘Out of Order' with Mark Lobel. A new series, in partnership with Disorder. Remarkable people, unguarded. Each month, Emmy nominated journalist Mark Lobel meets some of the world's most interesting people to understand the moments that made them who they are; and where they see hope in our mad mad mad mad world when so much feels out of order. In his most revealing interview yet, Charles Cumming, a master of modern spy fiction, opens up about his work, life and reveals his biggest regret, one that helped shape his spy novels. The duo discuss Charles upbringing - and how being sent to a boarding school at a young age shaped his writing. They also chat divorce-- and how two divorces, that of Charles parents and later himself, still shapes his writing, and why spy novels can call out the crimes and immorality of people like Putin and Trump in different ways that politicians and political commentators.

Dominican-Italian singer-songwriter YEИDRY has been around for over a decade, and in the span of her rich music career that's lived many lives, she compiled highly personal songs, some of which would eventually end up on her debut album coming out this Fall. She called it “Como Agua”, which translates to “Like Water”, aptly summarizing not only YEИDRY's way of making music, but also her way of life. In the process, she learned to go with the flow, taking her notebook filled with scribbled lyrics into the studio each day and getting comfortable with the cathartic moments of translating her experiences into music. Twice an immigrant with loved ones living all over the world, she hasn't quite figured out where home is yet; she has found a sanctuary in her art instead.  Having already sustained through many years of her “expensive” music career, YEИDRY likens herself to the mythological character of Icarus, flying too close to the sun. “I'm going to fall at some point if I keep wanting more,” she says, but all that fear disappears as soon as she starts singing her delicate melodies for this edition of Soundcheck. - Sırma Munyar Setlist: 1.Amapolas 2.Mala Mia 3.Espejo Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Join us on an Odyssey through the tours and while we put the diss in Odysseus. Ivy Pochoda is back to flex her classical Greek muscles as we explore the Isle of Lobsbos to find the things that made us gayer for tennis. Hint, it's everything Jelena Ostapenko is doing on social media. Plus we cover the 250s and all the new winners in That's So Hades and we debate what puts the Ick in Icarus more - the Alcaraz cornrows or Taylor Townsend's mixed doubles announcement for the US Open. We also talk about the Trojan Horse that could be the new genetic testing system implemented by the WTA and offer up our solution. And we play Yes Gawd where we match top players to Greek gods. You don't want to Artemis it. 

Football never stops. Only nine days after the World Cup final, the news was leaked that FIFA were looking to sell a stake in the tournament, sparking a furious backlash across the globe.UEFA responded by threatening to boycott FIFA competitions, with CONCACAF and AFC subsequently releasing statements condemning the proposal, which would have seen all 211 member associations receive $40 million each. It's easier to understand why the big guns resisted, but the money could have transformed the smaller nations, so why have so many of them declined the offer? And which tiny island's FA condemned the plan despite being run by...FIFA-appointed officials?Plus, Montenegro's four clubs are all eliminated from UEFA club competition qualifying with a perfectly awful record of 10 games and 10 defeats. We examine why they fared so badly.

In the last hour, FIFA President Gianni Infantino has issued a statement on his proposal to sell off a section of FIFA tournaments, including World Cups, to private investors. When his plan came to light in the last few days, it was met with major opposition from all parts of the football family. UEFA, CONCACAF and the Asian Football Confederation all voiced their official opposition to it in very strong terms, threatening to boycott future World Cups unless the scheme was abandoned Senior officials at FIFA, including Infantino's senior adviser Carlos Cordeiro, have quit in protest of both the idea itself, and the unilateral way in which it has been pulled together, without any form of consultation at all. And the idea is now dead in the water. The statement from the FIFA President reads as follows: "The FIFA Forward Enterprise project was intended to provide a basis for further strengthening our FIFA Member Associations and our sport worldwide, especially in those countries where support is most needed. “And more so, as we said from the outset, to do this only if a majority of the FIFA Member Associations were in support and always subject to a consultation process with them, the FIFA Council, the Confederations and wider stakeholders. “Having listened carefully to all the views, it has become clear that the project has created divisions of a nature that, regardless of the level of support, are no longer in the interest of the objective set out in the first place. “Our purpose has always been - and will always be - to unite and improve. “As a result, this proposal will not proceed. “Moving forward, my intent is to bring all interested parties back together in the coming days and weeks in the spirit of shared interest in our game, and with the objective to continue growing football everywhere, particularly in those countries that mostly need our support." This is an enforced back-down of staggering, unprecedented proportions and a misjudgement of the highest order from Gianni Infantino, which has led to an utter humiliation for him. During his time in the FIFA presidency, Infantino has become more and more detached from reality, to the point where he thought he was some all-powerful head of the global game and could do whatever he liked without any regard, let alone any discussion, with anyone else. His arrogance and levels of delusion have become breath-taking. The game is not Gianni Infantino's to sell. It is not anyone's to sell. Those in the corridors of power at FIFA are merely guardians of the game, not the owners of any part of it. FIFA exists to administer the game and to ensure its development in all parts of the world. But somewhere along the line, Gianni Infantino has fallen under the severe misapprehension that he is somehow bigger than the game itself. He's not. And this may well mark the beginning of the end for a man who has become deeply unpopular as the game's supposed global leader. Anyone with a shred of dignity or self-awareness would now resign, but Infantino has neither, and so he won't. Our good friend on the show, Seb Stafford-Bloor wrote today in The Athletic that this is Gianni Infantino's Icarus moment. The FIFA president has finally flown too close to the sun and the consequences for him may well, and should, be swift and severe. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Liza Libes is a writer and literary critic at Pens and Poison. Her parents escaped the Soviet Union. She went to Columbia. She found that Columbia's English Department had replaced literature with Marxist theory, postcolonial studies, and critical theory. She's been pushing back ever since. We talked about: the teachers who made us both writers; reading Wallace Stevens's The Snowman — out loud, in full — and the seventh grade class that made Liza stand in the snow for an hour to understand it; Hemingway, Ezra Pound, and the fascism problem; what happened to Columbia's English Department and why it matters for publishing; why Marxism is fundamentally an ideology of resentment (Bertrand Russell said it 100 years ago); the novel Yesteryear and what it reveals about contemporary literary self-righteousness; why writing characters who disagree with you is the whole point; the Emily Wilson translation of the Odyssey and what "a complicated man" does to Odysseus's character; and Christopher Nolan's Odyssey film — specifically the Cyclops scene he cut, why it was the scene that defined Odysseus, and why its absence drains the heroism from the entire story.

Sự khiêm nhường là một phẩm chất mà xưa nay con người vẫn luôn có những thái độ trái ngược. Quan niệm chung của xã hội xem đây như một đức tính của người đã có trí tuệ, có sự trưởng thành về nhận thức. Nhưng không thể phủ nhận, cũng không ít người xem khiêm nhường là sự nhu nhược, hoặc một phẩm chất giúp "làm đẹp" nhân cách nhưng lại khiến ta thiệt thòi trong một sân chơi xã hội nhiều cạnh tranh.Nhưng hãy tạm gác câu chuyện về đạo đức sang một bên. Trên góc độ về nhận thức, sự khiêm nhường còn là một thái độ nền tảng, nếu không muốn nói là quan trọng bậc nhất trên hành trình tri thức. Khi sự thật là vô tận, mà tâm trí con người thì có quá nhiều điểm mù, thiên kiến, giới hạn... sự khiêm nhường cho ta thấy rõ hơn sự bé nhỏ của mình và thôi thúc ta hướng đến những chân trời khám phá mới.Sự khôn ngoan, như Socrates đã từng minh chứng từ hơn 2000 năm trước, chính là việc dũng cảm thừa nhận rằng có rất nhiều điều mình không biết. Và đó, mới chính là bước đầu tiên của triết học. Ta có thể sống như Socrates: không ngừng đặt câu hỏi, không ngừng soi xét, hoặc như Icarus: lụi tàn vì sự tự mãn của chính mình.

Listeners sometimes ask what's been the most popular episode of Scream Therapy through the years. Well, one episode stands way above the rest. That's episode 40 with Amy Taylor of breakout Aussie punk band Amyl and the Sniffers. When Amy came onto the podcast in 2021, Amyl and the Sniffers were an upstart band with a dedicated following, but they weren't playing stadiums like they are now. Over the past few years, the band has gotten bigger and bigger, and the number of ears on Amy's episode grew and grew. So, here it is, another listen to Episode 40: Amy Taylor of Amyl and the Sniffers on Self-care and Mental Health! REPLAY: Host Jason Schreurs talks to Amyl and the Sniffers vocalist Amy Taylor about keeping mentally healthy at home and on tour. We also chat about how discovering punk helped put her endless energy into a positive place using a positive frame of mind.

Sustainable ambition isn't about wanting less — it's about knowing whether your drive is coming from desire or from fear, because the two can produce the exact same to-do list and completely different lives. In this episode, Brett Ingram breaks down why genuine ambition can rest and compulsive striving can't, what your nervous system already knows about your goals before your mind admits it, and a simple four-signal framework for checking your own engine so you're not guessing anymore. What You'll Learn in This Episode Why hitting a goal and feeling almost nothing isn't a discipline problem — it's a signal worth reading The hidden difference between two people working identical sixty-hour weeks: one running on desire, one running on fear Five warning signs that ambition has quietly turned compulsive, including a moving finish line and rest that starts to feel illegal Why the body — not the calendar — is the most honest narrator of whether your ambition is sustainable The five types of rest almost no one gets all of, and why scrolling on the couch isn't one of them How career-identity fusion sets you up for an existential crisis the moment the job changes, and how to build a sturdier sense of self The Four Signals of Sustainable Ambition — a practical framework for checking any goal you're currently chasing Episode Timestamps [00:00] Introduction — the goal that felt like nothing when you hit it [01:30] The central idea: sustainable ambition as a different relationship with wanting [02:00] The Two Engines — desire vs. fear, and why they produce identical résumés [07:00] Five warning signs the engine has switched from ambition to compulsion [10:30] What the body already knows — stress cycles, cortisol, and the five types of rest [15:00] Purpose without losing yourself — career-identity fusion and the identity trap [18:30] Where a calling actually comes from — mastery and meaning follow competence [21:00] The Four Signals of Sustainable Ambition, explained and applied [24:30] Sisyphus, Icarus, and Groundhog Day — three stories about the same distinction [26:00] Reflection questions and an exercise for this week [27:30] Closing thoughts Episode Summary Most high-achievers have had this exact experience: you hit the goal — the promotion, the number, the recognition — and instead of the satisfaction you expected, you feel a flicker of relief that evaporates almost instantly, replaced by a new target on the horizon as if the last one never counted. Brett Ingram's central argument in this episode is that this feeling is never a discipline problem. It's information, and it's been trying to tell you something about the engine underneath your ambition all along. The episode opens with what Brett calls the two engines. Picture two people, both working sixty-hour weeks, both building something ambitious, both indistinguishable from the outside. One is running on desire. The other is running on fear. Genuine ambition is curiosity with a direction — it wants to build the thing, solve the problem, get better at the craft, because the effort is in service of something the person actually wants. Compulsive striving looks the same from a distance but is powered by the fear of being inadequate, the dread of stopping and finding nothing underneath the achieving. The cleanest diagnostic, Brett argues, isn't how hard you work or how big the goal is — it's whether you can actually rest without the achievement-shaped hole reopening the moment you stop moving. From there, Brett walks through five warning signs that the engine has switched: identity fusion, where one bad outcome quietly becomes "I am not enough"; a finish line that keeps relocating with no interval of satisfaction; rest that feels illegal, filled with guilt or secret work; feedback from people close to you that gets explained away instead of examined; and chasing an outcome you can describe in vivid detail but can't explain the "why" behind. He shares his own experience building a digital marketing business where something working well only ever produced the thought "what's next to get it to the next level" — and realizing, in hindsight, that he never actually enjoyed the process itself. The conversation then turns physiological. Brett makes the case that ambition isn't only a mindset issue — it's a nervous system issue, and the body has been keeping score the entire time. A healthy stress response mobilizes, handles the threat, and returns to baseline. Compulsive ambition keeps that system in chronic, low-grade activation until it stops feeling like stress and starts feeling like normal. He draws a sharp distinction between passive distraction — scrolling on the couch — and genuine physiological recovery, and names five types of rest worth knowing: physical, sensory, emotional, social, and creative. "You can't out-discipline a body that never gets to down-regulate," he says. "Recovery isn't the reward for ambition. It's the maintenance that makes the ambition sustainable at all." Perhaps the most personal section of the episode deals with identity fusion and career. Brett shares the story of shutting down his first business — a custom-computer company he built out of his basement and grew to seven employees — and describes the day he turned off the lights as closing down more than a business. It was closing down a part of himself, because for four or five years, the business had been his entire identity. This connects to one of the episode's most useful reframes about calling: contrary to the idea that passion is discovered fully formed, Brett argues that mastery and meaning tend to follow competence — you find something interesting, get better at it, and the calling builds itself through the doing, not before it. This is a core thread of the Purpose & Meaningful Work pillar — locating your sense of self somewhere sturdier than a job title, so that when a role ends, the loss is professional rather than existential. The episode closes with the Four Signals of Sustainable Ambition: the engine (want or fear?), the rest test (can you actually stop?), the craft line (are you attached to the work or only the win?), and the enough line (do you have an actual internal definition of "enough," written down and concrete?). Brett reinforces the point with three cultural touchstones — Camus's Sisyphus, happy in the pushing itself; Icarus, whose danger was never ambition but ambition with no ceiling; and Groundhog Day, where the way out was never external. The episode's closing line captures the whole argument: "You're allowed to want more and be complete right now. Those two things were never actually in conflict. Only the fear ever made it look that way." Resources Mentioned Albert Camus, The Myth of Sisyphus — referenced for the closing line "One must imagine Sisyphus happy," used to illustrate meaning living in the pursuit itself rather than a final arrival The myth of Icarus — used to illustrate that the danger isn't ambition itself but ambition with no ceiling or signal for "enough" Groundhog Day (film) — referenced as a modern picture of compulsive striving, where nothing external resolves the loop until the character's motivation itself changes Frequently Asked Questions What is sustainable ambition and how is it different from compulsive striving? Sustainable ambition is a relationship with wanting that doesn't require you to be in a permanent state of deficit in order to function. It's curiosity with a direction — you want to build the thing and enjoy the process, and the effort serves something you actually want. Compulsive striving looks identical from the outside but is powered by fear of inadequacy rather than desire, and it's chasing away from something rather than toward it. How can I tell if my ambition is driven by desire or fear? The clearest test is what happens the moment you hit the goal. If you feel satisfied, even briefly, before moving on to the next thing, that's genuine ambition. If the moment evaporates almost instantly and gets replaced by anxiety about the next benchmark, that's the compulsive engine. Naming the goal out loud and honestly asking "want or fear?" is a simple way to start — and the answer can be mixed. Why don't I feel satisfied after achieving something I worked hard for? That flat feeling usually means the goal was never really the point — it was a way of outrunning a fear of inadequacy rather than building toward something you wanted. Because compulsive striving is about escape rather than arrival, hitting the target doesn't resolve anything. It just reveals that another target was already waiting. What are the warning signs that ambition has become compulsive? Five to watch for: identity fusion, where one bad outcome becomes "I am not enough"; a finish line that keeps moving with no interval of satisfaction; rest that feels illegal or guilt-inducing; feedback from people close to you that you explain away instead of examining; and being able to describe the outcome you want in vivid detail while struggling to say why you actually want it. What are the Four Signals of Sustainable Ambition? The engine — is this goal driven by desire or fear? The rest test — can you actually stop without anxiety flooding back in? The craft line — are you attached to the work itself or only to the win? And the enough line — do you have a real, concrete definition of "enough" that doesn't keep relocating itself past wherever you currently stand? Is it a problem if my identity is tied to my career? Caring deeply about your work is different from being fused with it. Fusion means you no longer exist independently of how the work is going, which is fragile because careers change, companies restructure, and roles end. The goal isn't to care less about your work — it's to locate your sense of self somewhere sturdier than a job title, so a career setback stays professional instead of becoming existential. Does building sustainable ambition mean I have to want less? No. Brett is explicit that none of this is an argument for lowering the bar or wanting less. Sustainable ambition is a healthier relationship with wanting, one where the pursuit doesn't require you to be broken in order to keep going. You're allowed to want more and still feel complete right now — those two things were never actually in conflict.

Summary: “Have you ever been to a buffet where you literally try everything?”   Sometimes the best way to find your new favorite things is to just sample a lot of different things until you find the things that you enjoy the most. As with a buffet…or even dating, you just “grab something” you think you might like and “give it a taste”. If you like it, you keep going back for more. And if it's not your thing, you simply continue the process of sampling and tasting other things until you find something you truly enjoy.   Founded by Markus Staiger in Donzdorf, Germany way back in 1987, NUCLEAR BLAST has signed a myriad of metal artists over the years from across the spectrum of sub genres, ranging from hardcore and symphonic metal to industrial metal, thrash metal, and beyond, including some top tier legacy thrash bands from the 1980's that enjoyed a resurgence in popularity during the 2000's (fun fact: Slayer's final studio album, Repentless, is the highest charting NUCLEAR BLAST release in the United States, making it to Number 4 on the Billboard 200.)   In the context of this particular episode, we are referring to our recent sampling of the artist roster from NUCLEAR BLAST RECORDS, and much like with dating and buffets, there were some bands we enjoyed more than others, some that were right up our alley and REALLY hit the spot, and some that just weren't our cup of tea (so to speak), but rest assured that everything we sampled was most definitely interesting and we learned a few things along the way.   Prepare for the most philosophical voicemail about metal music that we've ever received, realize that when it comes to power outages and paranormal activity that “I just wanna make sure that they know that I know that they know” and remember that “sometimes, wet's not bad” when you JOIN US on our sampling expedition of the NUCLEAR BLAST RECORDS artist roster.  Visit www.metalnerdery.com/podcast for more on this episode Help Support Metal Nerdery https://www.patreon.com/metalnerderypodcast Leave us a Voicemail to be played on a future episode: 980-666-8182 Metal Nerdery Tees and Hoodies – metalnerdery.com/merch and kindly leave us a review and/or rating on your favorite Podcast app Follow us on the Socials: Facebook - Instagram - TikTok Email: metalnerdery@gmail.com Can't be LOUD Enough Playlist on Spotify Metal Nerdery Munchies on YouTube @metalnerderypodcast Show Notes: (00:01): “So, it's wet over there…?

Your brain has been running on one unbroken assumption since before you were born - gravity. A new neuroscience paper says astronauts lose that assumption in orbit, and what happens next looks a lot like a psychedelic trip. The Greeks and Romans already had names for it. Icarus lost his calibration. Atlas never got to leave. A rare few got apotheosis.Tonight - gravity, ego dissolution, and what the oldest myths already knew about losing the ground under you.

On this episode of Black and Snerdy, Ode (@thatsod.e / @thatsod_e) and Mo AKA Kid Licorish (@licorishislegit) sit down with Wordplay T. Jay and Icarus Gray for a bonus conversation that starts with the origins of their podcasting lane and quickly moves into hip hop culture, generational perspective, and the pressure of staying authentic in a changing media landscape. The discussion moves through Vince Staples' Cry Baby, Tierra Whack, Rapsody, J. Cole, and a full-throttle Drake critique before turning to the 2000 documentary Backstage and the 1999 Hard Knock Life tour.The review of Backstage highlights Jay-Z, DMX, Ja Rule, Method Man, Redman, Memphis Bleek, Beanie Sigel, and Dame Dash, while digging into backstage energy, performance legacy, and the uneasy truth behind some of the film's most memorable scenes. Black boy joy, hip hop maturity, performance history, and the difference between then and now all collide in a conversation that mixes sharp commentary, laughter, and plenty of pointed opinions.No Rhyme or Reason Podcast: https://www.submithub.com/link/nrorWordPlay T.

In this episode of the Spybrary Spy Podcast, Shane Whaley is joined by fellow Spybrarian and Head of Boston Station, Joe Modzelewski, to welcome bestselling espionage author Charles Cumming back to the show. Support us on Patreon for even more content. Charles joins Spybrary to discuss his new Lachlan Kite thriller, ICARUS 17, released on 2 July in the UK and 7 July in the United States. Billed as a nail-biting new entry in the BOX 88 series, ICARUS 17 sees Kite pulled back into fieldwork when Martha Rain, a woman from his past, asks for his help in finding her missing son, Max. Max and his girlfriend Yasmine have disappeared in Athens, but they are not simply missing. They are on the run, hunted by two rival agencies with orders to kill. The secret they are carrying could destabilise the Middle East for a generation, and if Kite fails to save them, the consequences will be catastrophic. Alongside the new novel, Shane and Joe talk with Charles about his writing process, his approach to writing modern espionage fiction, and his experiences working in the writers' rooms of some of the spy television shows and films enjoyed by Spybrary listeners.  

For June and Pride, Ronnie chose a modern retelling of Icarus by K. Ancrum! We'll spoil the discussion a little bit and let you know here that we loved the novel! Still, there's a lot to discuss. Icarus retells the classic myth, but instead, Icarus is an art thief, his father is a man seeking revenge, and Helios is a boy trapped in a mansion with an abusive father. There's a lot to unpack in this short novel, and we had a great discussion. We hope you enjoyed reading Icarus, or this inspired you to pick it up! Icarus made both of want to look at more art, and it's powerful story of young, tragic love.    For July, Ian picked The Antidote by Karen Russell. A magical realism novel that came out in 2025. The story takes place in a fictional town in Nebraska where a prairie witch stores people's memories! We hope you get a chance to check it out before our next episode on August first. 

The Monday Microsegment for the week of June 29. All the cybersecurity news you need to stay ahead, from Illumio's The Segment podcast. Officials warn about frontier AI as a Chinese model closes the gap with Mythos. Icarus burns a dozen security firms, thanks to an old password.  And ShinyHunters goes back to school in another attack against the education sector.

On Episode 220 of Floating Through Film, we're continuing our series picked by Dany, Jean Renoir!

Joining us this episode is Claudio Finol, Chief Innovation and Strategy Officer at Fyffes — one of the world's leading fresh produce companies, owned by Japan's Sumitomo Corporation. An engineer by training with an MBA from Alliance Manchester Business School, where he also teaches, Claudio has led innovation and strategy across Chiquita, Danone, FrieslandCampina, and McBride. He brings a rare cross-industry lens to the discipline — part academic, part practitioner — and a conviction that strategy should sit far closer to execution than most strategy offices allow. In this conversation, we explore why the pursuit of stability, the very thing most strategy functions are built to deliver, may be the hidden weakness that brings an organisation down.Things we will cover:The Icarus principle applied to strategy, and why over-reliance on stability is more dangerous than over-reliance on strengthWhy adaptability is less about managing change and more about constantly challenging the assumptions beneath every planThe tension between efficiency and resilience, and why real resilience demands a degree of redundancy by designThe "velocity of risk" — not just how big a threat is, but how fast it can surface, from steady regulation to a blind side like DeepSeekHow to reframe risk as opportunity, and why the risk function and strategy function need to work in concertReconciling a fast-moving external environment with long-horizon ownership expectationsThe Chief Strategy Officer as "chief reminder officer" — keeper of a living, adaptive process rather than the executor of a fixed planFrom the Icarus principle to the chief reminder officer, Claudio draws on experience across some of the world's best-known consumer and industrial brands to make a grounded case that the real work of strategy is never finished — because the assumptions underneath every plan are always shifting.Episode Timeline:Additional Resources:LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/claudiofinol/Fyffes: https://www.fyffes.comLearn more about Outthinker's community of chief strategy officers - https://outthinker.com/Follow us on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/outthinker-networksThank you to our guest Claudio Finol for such a thoughtful and genuinely practical conversation. Learn more about Outthinker's community of chief strategy officers - https://outthinker.com/Follow us on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/outthinker-networks

The poems that nourish us, and the myths that nourish poems. What can a connection with a mythical figure give us, or a legendary flower? Ian McMillan is joined by Zeus, Poseidon, the Green Man, the trees of Under Milk Wood, and Wordsworth's favourite flower - courtesy of The Verb's guests - the philosopher Angie Hobbs, and poets Rishi Dastidar, Bradley Taylor, and Samantha Wynne-Rhydderch.Bradley Taylor brings Brummie legends like 'Pete the Feet' into a poem with the likes of Zeus and Icarus, in his slam-winning poem 'I don't care about the gods'. Bradley's book is called 'You Missed the Best Parts', and he writes a brand new poem during the programme.Angie Hobbs is Professor of the Public Understanding of Philosophy Emerita at the University of Sheffield. and her most recent book is called 'Why Plato Matters Now'. Angie shares 'a neon line', a stellar line of poetry that can help us get through uncertain times. Rishi Dastidar shares a new commission on the theme of 'how to get through' - and celebrates William Wordsworth's favourite flower, the lesser celandine. Rishi also reads from his new collection 'Cherry Blossom at Nightbreak' - and we discover the mythic name of the legendary entertainer Bruce Forsyth.Samantha Wynne-Rhydderch's new book is 'Milk Wood Memoir'. It includes a legendary tree, and family recollections of that mythic Welsh poet Dylan Thomas. Samantha's poetry has been nourished by living in the Welsh fishing village of New Quay - also an influence on Dylan Thomas's play 'Under Milk Wood'

Brian is hiding from CMA Fest, Ben is back from the British Virgin Islands, and Ted has finally sprung the Egg from a two-month annual. Time for an Information Whiskey episode.Brian gets back in the air after his exam binge with a visit to Full Stop Aviation at Union City, where he meets a 1,000 horsepower Reno racer, then executes a strategic family airstrike to the Virginia mountains and reports that Lucy's autopilot vertical hold now sounds like logging into America Online before giving up entirely. Listener feedback from Chris H. sparks a debate on whether heavy dual time before the private checkride is a red flag or just life happening. Community accomplishments include a PIN code for the DC FRZ, a 9,000 foot density altitude wake turbulence encounter, ten Young Eagles in one day, an LSRM-I sign-off, and fresh grief for everyone hand jamming a Garmin 430 in actual.Then things go deeper. Brian unpacks his new video "Trip. Fall. Succeed." and the photograph he took of a family at Huntsville Executive just two days before they were lost in the Montana Aztec accident. It's a thoughtful look at how aviation talks about tragedy, and how Ron Horton's challenge to become instructors gives all of this weight and purpose.Plus: episode 200 hits this fall, and the crew wants your votes for a very special non-event event at a no-place place.

Mace and Jeff put Matt Walsh's antidepressant episode under the clinical microscope — and it does not pass the functional impairment test. They break down the 2022 Molecular Psychiatry umbrella review that dismantled the low-serotonin narrative, explain why that finding doesn't indict SSRIs as a category, and make the case that the “chemical imbalance” pitch was always more pharmaceutical advertising than clinical science. They also tackle what functional impairment actually means in diagnosis, the gender disparity in antidepressant prescribing, whether the SSRI-to-mass-violence argument is causal or just really committed to showing up in the same sentence, and what clinicians should actually be telling clients about medications they can't fully explain. For anyone who has ever explained serotonin to a client and quietly wondered if they knew what they were talking about: this one's for you. Music: “Machine Heart – Instrumental version” by Icarus.

The Great Work by Sheldon Costa is a debut novel, and it was also Ian's pick for the month of May. The novel follows a man named Gentle Montgomery who is a self styled alchemist living in the American west just before Washington became a state. A salamander or dragon has been seen in the countryside and is driving animals to act strange, causing hallucinations, and water to go bad. Gentle also believes this salamander has killed his friend Liam, and so he sets off with Liam's body, his nephew, Kitt, and their donkey, Abe, in search of the salamander. Gentle believes this creature to be "prima material" which can be used to complete The Great Work and create the Philosophers Stone which can then resurrect Liam. Along the way the encounter a frontier warlord, a town of progressives called the Harmonites, and many other strange things. This novel has a very original plot and we enjoyed reading and discussing it!    Next month's pick is Ronnie's, and she choose: Icarus by K. Ancrum.

Do you realize that trading and Greek mythology are so highly correlated? I want to talk about that and give you some quotes and see how they relate to trading and your success in this video and podcast. Let's get into it right now. Hey there, Traders! It's Andrew Mitchem here at The Forex Trading Coach with video and podcast number 635. Greek Mythology and your trading success. So today something different because I want to talk about Greek mythology and how it relates to your trading success and how you approach the markets. You see people control the markets, emotions control the markets. And those same traits can be seen in Greek mythology, you know, from thousands of years ago. Too much confidence can blow an account. Give you an example. If you look at Icarus flying too close to the sun, that can be related to, say, like traders who are over trading, over leveraging, you know, their confidence becomes too much and they then blow their account because of doing silly things. You know, they're ignoring risk management rules and you get disaster. Exactly like Icarus flying too close to the sun with confidence. You can look at Odysseus and, you know, the principles of trading with discipline. You know, look at your trading as a long journey and how to gain patience when under pressure. Sticking to your trading plan despite distractions that you may have. You've got the example of sirens and market noise, and you know you've got social media tips out there telling you what to do. You get people saying, this is a guaranteed trade set up. You get, you know, emotional temptations pulling you away from your strategy because you're out there on forum sites looking at other things. So you've got all those kind of issues going on there. Obsession with money. You've got King Midas obsession with profits, you know, just looking at money, money, money. Whenever people do backtesting, they always pick the 1 with the, you know, the most money and you then get away from, you know, what you really need as a trader, which is consistency as well so people forget that. Achilles, so the Achilles heel your trading psychology becomes your weakness. You know, revenge trading, fear of missing out potentially like refusing to accept losses. All those type of things. So really important that you think about these, you know, principles that have been around for thousands and thousands of years and how they can help you with your trading. Markets, you know, are new, but emotions are not. Emotions have been there forever. You don't need a degree to become a good trader. So the best traders out there, they're not necessarily the smartest ones. And I find this with my, you know, with my students. And when I say smart, they don't have to have all the bits of paper and been to the best universities and all that type of thing, that does not make the best traders. The best traders are the ones that can master themselves, control their emotions, stick to plans, be disciplined, show up, turn up and you'll find that they become the best traders. 2 new testimonial videos from our clients. Some great examples of that on my website. Just in the last week, we've added 2 new reviews and testimonials from clients and the guy. Pete's been with me for 10 years. I met Pete in person a few weeks ago when I was over in Bali. And, you know, have a listen to that review. There's Ryan, who's a real estate agent here in New Zealand. Have a listen to his review. Just a family guy with 2 young kids doing really well through his trading by turning up, showing up, sticking to the discipline and rules and, you know, being a self-employed person, like, you know, like a commission agent, like a real estate agent is, you know, he understands that not every trade will be perfect. He understands that you can put lots of time into trading for maybe like a day or a week or, you know, and the results aren't always going to be perfect. So I think it takes a special kind of person like that to really trade well. My farming background has helped me to become a good trader I come from originally a farming background, you know, I understand that, that things are tough. You're, you know, you put the effort in, you plan, you discipline, you know, and you show up. And that's what trading is all about. You don't have to have, like I said, you know, the most qualifications. You don't need to be super, super smart to do this. You just need to control your emotions and understand what's needed and required. So I hope that helps. Blueberry Markets as a Forex Broker If you are there looking for a very good forex broker, I can highly recommend Blueberry Markets. I'll put a link to them there based across in Australia, but traders from right around the world can open an account with Blueberry Markets. I've been with them since they started and I know some of their team from prior to when Blueberry was created.

On August 28, 2013, Bryce David Laspisa, a 19‑year‑old student attending Sierra College in Rocklin California started out on the 6-7 hour drive back to his parents home in Laguna Niguel CA for an impromptu visit. Over the next 30 hours Bryce would spend hours sitting in his parked car at rest areas and on the side of country roads before disappearing all together. He spoke to his parents several times over the course of his trip, providing vague reassurances but never an explanation. On the morning of August 30th, Bryce's 2003 Toyota Highlander was found overturned at the bottom of an embankment. There was evidence at the scene indicating that Bryce had survived the crash, and yet he was nowhere to be found. Extensive searches of the surrounding area produced no evidence of his whereabouts, no trace of Bryce has been discovered to this day. We all know that people don't just vanish into thin air, but the question remains, Where is Bryce?   Click to learn more (sources) *Links to come in part 2, no spoilers!   Episode Credits: Hosts/writers: Holly Knapp and Leslie Weidel Editor/Composer/Producer: Jon Katity WWBD Merch Buy your WWBD swag here!  Join the Conversation
