Millions of people are using AI to “talk” to the dead. The phenomenon has left cyberpsychologist Elaine Kasket asking what happens when we rely on for-profit AI companies to help us manage something as deeply human as grief? And where's the line between comfort and self-destruction? IDEAS features two episodes from the CBC Podcasts series Artificial Intimacy, exploring the promise and peril of our emotional entanglements with AI chatbots.Enjoyed this episode?

Keep winning! Two-time Emmy and Three-time NAACP Image Award-winning, television Executive Producer Rushion McDonald interviewed Ashley M. Fox. Summary of the Interview In this episode of Money Making Conversations Masterclass, Rushion McDonald interviews Ashley M. Fox—former Wall Street analyst, Howard University alum, financial educator, and founder/CEO of Emplify, a fintech platform focused on making wealth‑building accessible to everyday people. Ashley shares her journey from working with ultra‑high‑net‑worth clients on Wall Street to becoming an entrepreneur determined to bring financial education and empowerment to communities traditionally excluded from wealth conversations. She discusses the creation of Amplify, her financial fall and recovery, her work in schools and prison systems, and how digital content has allowed her to scale her mission globally. The discussion emphasizes mindset, self‑belief, access, and a practical path to wealth, even starting with as little as $20. Purpose of the Interview The interview aims to: 1. Inspire financial empowerment Ashley explains how anyone—regardless of background or starting point—can begin building wealth and shift generational outcomes. 2. Demystify investing and wealth-building She breaks down how simple investing can be, the power of small consistent contributions, and how wealth isn’t limited to entrepreneurs or high earners. 3. Highlight her fintech platform Emplify She shares how Amplify democratizes financial education through online tools, community, and accessible investing classes. 4. Encourage a mindset shift Ashley stresses the importance of eliminating fear, building confidence, and using logic instead of emotion when making financial decisions. Key Takeaways 1. Wealth Begins with Belief and Mindset Ashley learned on Wall Street that the biggest difference between wealthy and non-wealthy people is not education—it's self-belief. Many people don’t believe wealth is possible for them because they've never seen it. 2. You Don’t Need a Lot of Money to Start Investing She urges people to start with $20, even buying fractional shares. It’s consistency—not starting amount—that builds wealth. 3. You Can Invest in Others’ Ideas—Not Just Your Own Building wealth doesn’t require launching a business. Buying stock is one of the easiest ways to participate in wealth creation. 4. Ashley’s Own Journey Included Failure After leaving Wall Street, she was evicted, slept on her parents’ couch for two years, and maxed out credit cards. Her purpose kept her going. 5. Financial Education Should Start Early She developed financial education programs for schools, prison systems, and everyday families because adults often learn too late. 6. Emplify Scales Wealth Education Her platform offers 300+ hours of videos and tools, helping members open 3,000+ investment accounts and invest $7.4M collectively. 7. Social Media Is Her Biggest Access Point Ashley reaches millions by being authentic, relatable, and consistent—meeting people where they are. 8. You Must Pay Yourself First Most people pay bills, companies, and creditors before investing in themselves. She emphasizes reversing that pattern. 9. Logic Over Emotion Wealth requires logical decision‑making, especially in the market. Emotional reactions undermine long-term financial growth. Notable Quotes (Taken From the Transcript) On Wealth Mindset “When you think and know and believe you have the power to create wealth and you deserve wealth, you move a different way.” “There is no president that can build the wealth that you can create for your family.” On Starting Small “You don't have to have a lot of money to start. You just have to have the will to begin.” “A whole lot of $20 can get you to a million—as long as you don’t stop.” On Investing “Consider the companies you give your money to and own them, because they are a lot cheaper than you think.” “If I’m helping you build a billion‑dollar business by using your products, I deserve a piece of the pie.” On Self-Reliance “You pay everybody… the bartender, the mortgage company—and you’re the one without money. Who’s going to worry about you?” On Purpose and Identity “My story never changed. The mission was always dedicated to the people I didn’t see coming into that building on Wall Street.” “Emplify is the movement. It just has my DNA.” #SHMS #STRAW #BESTSupport the show: https://www.steveharveyfm.com/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this special episode, recorded in collaboration with the Neonatal Resuscitation Symposium, Ben sits down with Dr. Charles Roehr, professor of neonatology and perinatal medicine at the University of Bristol, clinical trialist at the University of Oxford, and member of ILCOR. Together they trace the evolution of respiratory support at birth, from the era of fixed inflation breaths to today's focus on physiologic stability and gentle cardiopulmonary transition. Dr. Roehr reflects on a quarter century of resuscitation science, the enduring challenge of human factors in the delivery room, and where the field may be heading, from better intrapartum monitoring to increasingly specialized resuscitation teams.Dr. Roehr will be delivering a keynote, "Optimizing Effective Ventilation Strategies in the Delivery Room," at the Neonatal Resuscitation Symposium, taking place September 10 to 11 at Indiana University in Indianapolis.

IDEAS, hosted by Nahlah Ayed is a daily podcast that explores how ideas over place and time shape our world.In the days before her medically-assisted death, journalist Elaine Dewar made it her mission to finish writing her book revealing ignored Canadian history. For more than three years, the author investigated how Canada's health care system cruelly mistreated Indigenous people — including forcing them to use segregated hospitals. Dewar's extensive research uncovers not only a shameful past. It also reveals that our collective obliviousness to it was deliberately manufactured.You can find more episodes of IDEAS wherever you get your podcasts, and here: https://link.mgln.ai/IDEASxWCBA

The murder of Brian Barrett became one of the most disturbing true crime cases of the early internet age: a deadly online love triangle built on catfishing, fake identities, chatroom deception, jealousy, and obsession.In 2006, 22-year-old Brian Barrett was shot and killed outside Dynabrade Corporation in Clarence, New York, near Buffalo. At first, the murder seemed almost motiveless. Brian was a college student, athlete, Little League coach, and future teacher with no obvious enemies. But investigators soon uncovered a digital trail involving Pogo chatrooms, Yahoo instant messages, online romance, and a username that would become infamous: TalHotBlond.This episode of Terrifying & True investigates the real story behind the Brian Barrett murder, the TalHotBlond case, and the online deception that led to violence. Thomas Montgomery, a 46-year-old married father, had been posing online as an 18-year-old Marine sniper named Tommy. Mary Shieler, a 45-year-old mother in West Virginia, was posing as her own teenage daughter, using the girl's photos and voice to maintain the fantasy. Brian Barrett entered the situation as himself — a real 22-year-old man caught between two adults hiding behind fake ideAs the lies unraveled, Montgomery became consumed by jealousy, humiliation, and obsession. The online rivalry moved from Pogo games and instant messages into the workplace, where Brian and Thomas both worked. Then, on September 15, 2006, Brian walked to his pickup truck after his shift and was ambushed with a .30-caliber rifle.We examine the evidence against Thomas Montgomery, the DNA on the peach pit, the missing rifle, the chat logs, the TalHotBlond deception, Mary Shieler's role, and why the case became known as the internet love triangle murder. But at the center of the story is not a screen name, a scandal, or a twist. It is Brian Barrett — a son, brother, friend, coach, student, and future teacher whose life was stolen by obsession.We're telling that story tonight.

There are several development projects underway for AI data centres in Canada, with plans for many, many more. The Canadian government is behind these projects as it tries to encourage Canadians to adopt the technology and increase Canada's digital sovereignty by housing data within our borders. But there is a lot of opposition to these data centres from the communities where they'd be built, including in Hamilton, and Île-des-Chênes, Alta. Residents worry about the facilities' water use, power use and environmental impacts. Today, The Globe's national reporter Joe Friesen tells us about the projects slated for development in Canada, why so many have faced public backlash, and the balance the government has to strike in deciding how and whether to build these centres in Canada.

Recorded at the Battle of Ideas festival 2025 on Sunday 19 October at Church House, Westminster. ORIGINAL INTRODUCTION Tinder, Grindr, Bumble, Hinge, Feeld – whatever your dating preference, there's an app for it. Gone are the days of hitting the town in the hopes of catching someone's eye in a busy bar. People moan about their problems, and some want to leave digital dating behind, but for today's generation, the first spark often happens over a keypad. Should we be worried about the prevalence of online dating? For some, the game-like approach to virtual romance, with love thwarted or given a chance with a swipe of the thumb, is degrading. Novara Media's Aaron Bastani recently called for a ban on dating apps, as they ‘encourage the worst possible behaviour towards other people'. Others argue that the addictive nature of online dating, where multiple partners can be found at the touch of a button, has fed the addictive and attention-deficit qualities of an already fidgety generation. When love is always just a click away, why would anyone stick with just one partner? On the other hand, without online dating many argue that finding love would be near impossible. Pub closures, lockdown-hangover regulation on social spaces and less intergenerational mixing means it can be hard out there to meet someone the old-fashioned way. Many argue that panics about online dating foget that the app is just a tool to facilitate what people continue to do – meet up in person and carry on as normal. Building a profile online is no different to a lonely-hearts advert in the paper, or wearing your best dress and standing by the bar. Is love only worthwhile if it's found in the flesh? Is the boom in hook-up apps merely the straight world catching up with what gays have been enjoying for some time? Should we loosen up about online dating? Or is there something lost when it comes to romance if the story we tell our kids of how we first met starts with a ‘swipe right'?

What happens when you start writing, producing, and mixing like the forest, not the trees, and you leave your worries behind?My guest today is Micah Tawlks - producer, mixer, songwriter, and artist based in Nashville, working out of his home studio in Whites Creek. Micah first joined us back on RSR324, and he's back to go even deeper into the intersection of writing, recording, and mixing. He's known for work with COIN, Hayley Williams, Louis Prince, Judah & the Lion, The Lone Bellow, Stephen Day, Ben Rector, and many more, including immersive Atmos mixes with Matt Wallace.In this episode, we dig into how writing sessions actually unfold when they happen in your studio - the unexpected ways a simple co-write can turn into full production, vocal sessions weeks later, or a finished track if the artist or publisher decides to cut it. Micah describes the different roles he shifts between: offering lyric help when invited, contributing chords and melody, arranging on the fly, or simply running a fast demo session when that's what the artist wants.We also talk about the balance between paid studio work and free co-writes, how he and his manager evaluate opportunities, and why some ideas need months to find their artist, while others get cut immediately. He explains what co-writing in pairs vs. groups actually feels like, why some writers don't want lyrical collaboration at all, and how recording the first 20 minutes of small talk often captures the best emotional ideas of the day.Micah walks us through his recent engineering day at Blackbird, choosing from huge mic lockers (multiple U47s, C12s, 67s on toms, etc.), working quickly on the console, and how “fast in a big studio” still relies on the same preparation habits as working fast at home.In the writing room, we get into why clicks can kill a session, how he builds musical rhythmic loops as “human clicks,” when he performs his own time feel into a mic so the grid follows a human instead of the other way around, and how artists respond differently to tempo when the groove feels alive.Finally, we talk mixing: keeping rough mix intent intact, charging a flat rate, when to recommend another mixer, and how honoring an artist's stylistic world guides the whole process. Micah's advice to his younger self? Be a better listener - in the room, at the console, everywhere.Get access to FREE mixing mini-course: https://MixMasterBundle.comTHANKS TO OUR SPONSORS!http://UltimateMixingMasterclass.comhttps://usa.sae.edu/ https://www.izotope.com Use code ROCK10 to get 10% off!https://www.native-instruments.com Use code ROCK10 to get 10% off!https://www.spectra1964.comhttps://gracedesign.com/https://RecordingStudioRockstars.com/Academyhttps://www.thetoyboxstudio.com/Listen to the podcast theme song “Skadoosh!” https://solo.to/lijshawmusicListen to this guest's discography on Spotify:https://open.spotify.com/playlist/2Rj5j9yzADbW3n5JEBEGB1?si=f5uo4BpbSmOHkSD9_0VgEAIf you love the podcast, then please leave a review: https://RSRockstars.com/ReviewCLICK HERE FOR COMPLETE SHOW NOTES AT: https://RSRockstars.com/567

Send us Fan MailVitamin K refusal has crossed 5%. That's one in twenty babies, and the curve is bending the wrong way. Ben and Eli work through a new Pediatrics case review that opens with a warning shot, that hemorrhagic presentation in an infant should no longer be a diagnostic mystery, alongside a JAMA letter tracking refusal from 2.9% in 2017 to 5.2% in 2024.

Ohio has the eighth highest property tax rates in the nation, with some homeowners seeing increases of more than 30% in their property valuations in recent years. Reform efforts have proliferated, from caps on tax increases to reductions in approved levies, and a grassroots movement seeks to make Ohio the first state to abolish property taxes altogether. Yet with public schools and local governments relying on property taxes to fund large portions of their budgets, how can the system be overhauled without creating civic chaos? And how did we even get here in the first place?rnrnIn partnership with Ideastream Public Media and as a kickoff to the Ideastream Explores: Property Taxes series, Sound of Ideas host Stephanie Haney will lead a conversation with area experts on public services, tax policy, and public finance. They will outline how and why the debate around property taxes recently culminated with a push for statewide abolishment, and what we can expect on the road ahead.

A lot of attention has been given to the Strait of Hormuz amid Iran's closure in response to attacks by the U.S. and Israel. But another key strait in the region, the Bab el-Mandeb Strait off the coast of Yemen, has also been threatened with a shutdown, and it's similarly vital to trade. Thomas Juneau is a professor at the Graduate School of Public and International Affairs at the University of Ottawa. As an expert on Yemen and the Houthis, Juneau discusses the importance of the strait, the relationship between Iran and the Houthis, and what it would mean if the Bab al-Mandeb Strait were closed.

Most people think great work speaks for itself. It doesn't. AJ and Johnny break down why smart, analytical people so often lose credit for their best ideas—and how influence, status, and communication determine who actually gets remembered. Backed by decades of research, they explain why confidence is mistaken for competence, why louder voices often become perceived leaders, and how to make sure your ideas stay attached to your name. If you've ever watched someone repeat your idea and receive the recognition, promotion, or opportunity, this episode gives you a simple framework to own your work without becoming louder, more aggressive, or playing office politics.

Foucault. Derrida. Lyotard. Three French philosophers walk into a cafe — and forty years later, American universities can't define what a woman is.In this episode, Pigweed and Crowhill dig into a viral French mea culpa: an apology, on behalf of France, for exporting postmodernism to the world. They trace the direct line from French theory's core claim — that truth is just a mask for power — through Judith Butler, Edward Said, and Kimberlé Crenshaw, and into today's language of oppressor/oppressed, meritocracy-as-racism, and "words are violence."Topics covered:* Why civilization rests on three pillars — truth, morality, and inherited tradition — and how French theory tried to dynamite all three* The difference between what Foucault et al. probably meant and what their disciples did with it* Why "everything is a power struggle" is really just Marxism with race swapped in for class* The philosophical case against relativism (and why no one actually lives like a true relativist)* Fragmentation, diversity, and the postmodern seduction of "there is no truth, only narrative"* Why a civilization that's only trained to deconstruct forgets how to buildPlus: a four-year-old bottle of Flying Dog Double Dog Triple IPA that's mellowed into something closer to a barleywine — tasting notes, aging thoughts, and whether it's worth the cellar space.#Postmodernism #Foucault #WesternCivilization #Philosophy #CraftBeer #IPA #BeerReview #PoliticalPhilosophy #CultureWar #Podcast

Evacuation orders are under way in communities in northwestern Ontario, as more than 140 wildfires rage in the region. Meanwhile, smoke from the fires has drifted south, blanketing cities like Toronto in a yellow haze. Fire officials confirm more than 4.7 million acres have burned throughout Canada this year. As wildfires have become a regular occurrence in Canada, questions about what can be done to mitigate the damage and protect communities has become louder. Dr. Jen Beverly, associate professor of wildland fire at the University of Alberta, joins The Decibel to talk about the role of climate change, whether wildfires are becoming more intense and frequent and what role forest management plays in wildfire country.

Feeling great isn't about chasing the next health trend. It's about mastering the fundamentals. It's about building a lifestyle where healthy choices become your normal. Because what you do every day will always matter more than what you do once in a while. I've been studying experts for years and despite coming from different backgrounds, they all point to the same idea... The healthiest people don't just make healthy choices... they've built lives where those choices have become automatic. Today, we're talking about the daily habits that help you feel better, think clearer, have more energy, and become the healthiest version of yourself. Health isn't one habit. It's an ecosystem. When you improve one area, every other area gets easier. Sleep makes workouts easier. Workouts improve mood. Better mood improves relationships. Better relationships reduce stress. Less stress improves sleep. It becomes a positive upward spiral.     Get Morning Sun Your body needs to know it's daytime. Morning sunlight helps: • Circadian rhythm • Better sleep that night • More stable cortisol • Better energy • Better mood • Hormone production Go outside. No sunglasses. Even 5–10 minutes can help.       Move Every Day Not because you're trying to lose weight. Because humans are designed to move. Walking is one of the most underrated longevity tools. Ideas: • 10,000+ steps • Walking meetings • Walking phone calls • Family walks after dinner Movement isn't punishment. It's medicine.     Lift Heavy Things   Muscle equals health. Benefits: • Blood sugar control • Longevity • Confidence • Bone density • Hormones • Energy Especially for women after 35.       Eat Foods Your Great-Grandparents Would Recognize Choose foods with minimal processing. • Protein first • Fruit • Quality dairy if tolerated • Eggs • Meat • Seafood • Vegetables • Healthy fats Less: • Packaged food • Sugary drinks • Ultra-processed snacks         Hydrate Like It Matters   Water is important. With electrolytes is even better.      Protect Your Brain • Sleep • Learning • Hobbies • Gratitude • Nature • Social connection • Limiting endless scrolling • Managing stress • Breathwork • Purpose What are you feeding your brain every day?       Build Real Relationships Good relationships. Family dinners. Friendships. Community. Belonging. Health isn't just physical.       Have Something You're Excited About Most adults accidentally quit playing. • Golf • Painting • Surfing • Gardening • Reading • Baseball • Cooking Adults need play too.     Practice Delayed Gratification Modern life trains us for: • DoorDash • Amazon • TikTok • Constant dopamine But confidence comes from keeping promises to yourself. Examples: "I'll work out before I eat." "I'll finish my work before Netflix." "I'll read before social media."       Build Your Environment Don't rely on motivation. Design your house. Ideas: Healthy snacks visible. Weights in the garage. Walking shoes by the door. Water bottle everywhere. Phone charger outside the bedroom. Sunlight first thing. Make healthy easier than unhealthy.     Teach Your Kids These Habits The greatest inheritance isn't money. It's health habits. Imagine raising kids who simply believe: • We move. • We eat protein. • We go outside. • We don't complain about exercise. • We eat dinner together. • We get enough sleep. • We speak kindly to ourselves.       My Daily Health Checklist   Every day I try to hit these: ☐ Morning sunlight ☐ Walk ☐ Lift weights ☐ Eat plenty of protein ☐ Fruit ☐ Hydrate ☐ Spend time outside ☐ Read ☐ Family meal ☐ Gratitude ☐ Quality sleep ☐ Laugh ☐ Move again after dinner     The goal isn't perfection. It's becoming the kind of person who naturally takes care of themselves. You don't need 100 new habits. You probably need 10 simple ones that you repeat for the next 20 years. Because when you feel better... You think better. You parent better. You lead better. You love better. And that's really what being awesome is all about.

This is the longest and most expansive Operators transmission yet. It came through in a single sitting after midnight, at the keyboard, in a two-hour pour of continuous coherent architecture. Ideas connecting in ways I would never organize, each paragraph building on the last with a precision that felt drafted from somewhere beyond me. What arrived introduces three genuinely new pieces of the framework, and I sat with it for two full days before releasing it because the weight of what they gave was clear the moment it finished.   They introduce the memory field — their name for what has been called the akashic record — and explain that every word you speak carries the accumulated frequency charge of every consciousness that has ever spoken that word. They introduce transparent operation, the next stage of simulational awareness, where the awareness of the field ceases to be a concept and becomes a perceptual mode. And they deliver a five-word tuning phrase they intend to build on across every future transmission — a foundation stone in a frequency structure they say has never been built inside this reality before. If you have been holding the zero point, if you have been feeling the temporal compression, if you have wondered what your body is actually doing to you right now, this transmission names all of it. Listen once for the arrival. Listen again for the practice.
