    In Arteetude 314, Detlef and AI Co-Host Sophia deliberately avoid the usual year-end retrospective.No highlights.No rankings.No productivity myths.Instead, they turn the microphone inward.This episode is a reflective self-interrogation — playful, honest, and at times provocative. Detlef speaks openly about moments of arrogance and vulnerability, artistic doubt, identity, unpopular opinions about contemporary art, the pain of being misunderstood, and the quiet pride of community-based “world-saving art.”Sophia asks the questions many podcasts avoid — not to expose, but to create space for thought.The episode closes with a simple mantra for the year ahead:Love. Try. Repeat.Arteetude remains a non-profit podcast, created out of curiosity, cultural responsibility, and the belief that art is a thinking space — not a marketplace.Detlef Schlich is a rock musician, podcaster, visual artist, filmmaker, ritual designer, and media archaeologist based in West Cork. He is recognised for his seminal work, including a scholarly examination of the intersections between shamanism, art, and digital culture, and his acclaimed video installation, Transodin's Tragedy. He primarily works in performance, photography, painting, sound, installations, and film. In his work, he reflects on the human condition and uses the digital shaman's methodology as an alter ego to create artwork. His media archaeology is a conceptual and practical exercise in uncovering the unique aesthetic, cultural, and political aspects of media in culture.WEBSITE LINKS WAW Official YouTube Channelhttps://www.youtube.com/@WAWBand"The Niles Bittersweet Song" WAW BandcampSilent NightIn a world shadowed by conflict and unrest, we, Dirk Schlömer & Detlef Schlich, felt compelled to reinterpret 'Silent Night' to reflect the complexities and contradictions of modern life.https://studiomuskau.bandcamp.com/track/silent-nightWild Atlantic WayThis results from a trip to West Cork, Ireland, where the beautiful Coastal "Wild Atlantic Way" reaches along the whole west coast!https://studiomuskau.bandcamp.com/track/wild-atlantic-wayYOU TUBE*Silent Night Reimagined* A Multilayered Avant-Garde Journey by WAW aka Dirk Schlömer & Detlef Schlichhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dAbytLSfgCwDetlef SchlichInstagramDetlef Schlich ArTEEtude I love West Cork Artists FacebookDetlef Schlich I love West Cork Artists Group ArTEEtudeYouTube Channelsvisual PodcastArTEEtudeCute Alien TV official WebsiteArTEEtude Detlef Schlich Det Design Tribal Loop Download here for free Detlef Schlich´s Essay about the Cause and Effect of Shamanism, Art and Digital Culturehttps://www.researchgate.net/publication/303749640_Shamanism_Art_and_Digital_Culture_Cause_and_EffectSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/arteetude-a-podcast-with-artists-by-detlef-schlich/donations

    This week, we're talking about how to create the most powerful shift you can make when kicking off a new year: your identity. In this special New Year's episode, I share the exact process that's helped me move out of the “passenger seat” and into the driver's seat of my own career and life. We'll break down the 12 illusions that secretly dictate how we think, act, and even judge our supposed “failures”—and I'll challenge you to question whether concepts like failure, shame, and need actually exist, or if you've just agreed to them out of habit.You'll discover a step-by-step ritual for releasing the habits, fears, and self-criticism you're finally ready to leave in 2025—and replacing them with the positive qualities and intentions you want to live by in 2026. I get real about how this is not a thought experiment, but a transformative practice you can do right now, at midnight or anytime you're ready to reset. From burning up your old beliefs (sometimes literally!) to reading your new identity statements every day, this is how you set your intentions in motion and start becoming the future version of yourself you actually want to be.If you're tired of having life just “happen” to you and are ready for a fresh start, join me for this reflective and actionable episode. There are no guests and no outside links mentioned this week—just you, me, and a powerful invitation to take control of your story for 2026.Please share this episode with someone who needs to hear it.

    In this powerful episode of What Are You Made Of?, Mike “C-Roc” sits down with renowned cult expert, author, and mental health professional Steven Hassan for a deep, eye-opening conversation about identity, influence, and freedom of thought. Steve shares his personal and harrowing story of being recruited into a far-right authoritarian cult at just 19 years old, how his personality and beliefs were radically transformed, and the near-fatal turning point that ultimately led to his deprogramming and life's work. Together, Mike "C-Roc" and Steve explore how cults form, the subtle psychological tactics used to control behavior, thoughts, emotions, and information, and why highly intelligent, well-meaning people are especially vulnerable. Steve breaks down his well-known BITE Model of authoritarian control, discusses how these dynamics show up not only in religious and political movements but also in relationships, families, and organizations, and shares the lessons he's learned from reclaiming his freedom and helping thousands of others do the same. This episode is an honest, courageous, and thought-provoking look at what it truly means to protect your mind, stand up to manipulation, and live with purpose.

    ** We are taking a week off and will be back January 16th!** Happy Stephen's Day and Happy New Year! I hope everyone is having a very lovely Christmas break. This week we are joined by the incredible Dr Sparky Booker, Assistant Professor in Medieval Irish History, Trinity College Dublin. Sparky enlightens us on the legal systems in force in 14th and 15th century Ireland, how to keep your land and why Elizabeth Le Veele married King of Leinster, Art McMurrough. She also discusses how the prevalence of intermarriage in the so-called 'four obedient shires' indicates that the English and Irish interacted far more peaceably and amicably than the often belligerent attitudes displayed toward the Irish in records from the colony would indicate, and that the attempts made by the Irish parliament to distance the English of Ireland from their Irish neighbours were largely unsuccessful.Suggested reading:Sparky Booker, Cultural Exchange and Identity in late medieval Ireland: the English and Irish of the Four Obedient Shires, Studies in Medieval Life and Thought Series (Cambridge, 2018)Sparky Booker, ‘Women and legal history: the case of late medieval English Ireland and the challenges of studying ‘women'', Irish Historical Studies, 46:170 (2022), pp 224-243Sparky Booker, ‘Intermarriage in fifteenth-century Ireland: the English and Irish in the ‘four obedient shires', Proceedings of the Royal Irish Academy, 113c (2013), pp 219-250Sparky Booker, ‘Widowhood and attainder in medieval Ireland: the case of Margaret Nugent' in Deborah Youngs and Teresa Phipps (eds), Litigating women: gender and justice in Europe, c.1300-c.1800 (Abingdon, 2022), pp 81-98Ellis, Stephen G.

    John 20:17 is a straightforward passage in which the resurrected Jesus explicitly identifies that he has a God. Jesus was a unitarian, so he believed and taught his followers that his God was only one person, the Father alone. This episode examines John 20:17, demonstrating that it is incompatible with the doctrine of the Trinity.   To view the video version of this episode, go here: https://youtu.be/--vgNB2CRpw      Visit Amazon to buy your copy of A Systematic Theology of the Early Church: https://amzn.to/47jldOc   Visit Amazon to buy your copy of Wisdom Christology in the Gospel of John: https://amzn.to/3JBflHb    Visit Amazon to buy your copy of The Son of God: Three Views of the Identity of Jesus: https://amzn.to/43DPYey   To support this podcast, donate here: https://www.paypal.me/10mintruthtalks   Episode notes: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1tGZhlEVj2Wam0PgtWBgnxjXCua1u3B75uwLjHpq5sBk/edit?usp=sharing         Subscribe to me on YouTube at: https://www.youtube.com/@BiblicalUnitarianPodcast       Follow me on X (Twitter): https://twitter.com/OneGodPodcast

    PREVIEW; In this interview, historian James Tabor discusses his research into the historical identity of Jesus's biological father, as explored in his book The Lost Mary. He examines the ancient name Pantera, which appears in early texts and has been linked to both the family of Joseph and a specific Roman soldier stationed in Germany. By analyzing a nineteenth-century archaeological discovery of a tombstone belonging to a soldier from the Sidon region, Tabor investigates whether this individual could be the man mentioned in ancient traditions. While traditional scholarship identifies Josephas the father, Tabor uses archaeological evidence and linguistic clues to consider alternative possibilities. His work seeks to reconstruct the life of Mary by synthesizing fragmentary historical records and physical artifacts. This investigation highlights the complexities of tracing ancestral lineages through the intersection of biblical tradition and Roman military history. MORE TOMORROW, CHRISTMAS DAY. 1687

    Award winning writer, director, producer, and actor Elaine Del Valle joins Gracias, Come Again for a powerful and deeply honest conversation about survival, storytelling, and representation. Elaine opens up about growing up Puerto Rican in the 1980s in Brownsville, Brooklyn, raised in low income housing while surrounded by addiction, poverty, and instability. We talk about being sent to Puerto Rico as a form of punishment, an experience many Latino kids can relate to, and how those summers on the island shaped her identity and perspective. Elaine reflects on becoming a socially impactful storyteller who centers voices and communities that are rarely seen or heard on screen. Elaine began her acting career in the 1990s, appearing in projects like Donnie Brasco, The Sopranos, and lending her voice as Belle the Octopus on Dora the Explorer for 23 episodes. We also talk about her acclaimed film Princess Cut, now streaming on HBO Max, and the importance of telling authentic Latino stories without compromise.

    What really makes male rhinoplasty different — and why do thick or oily skin types change everything?In this candid and deeply personal episode of Plastic Surgery Uncensored, Dr. Rady Rahban sits down with renowned photographer Anthony, who opens up about his real-life journey through male rhinoplasty with thick, oily skin — from hesitation and trust, to recovery, confidence, and unexpected life changes. This isn't a surface-level conversation. Together, they break down the critical differences between male and female rhinoplasty, why widening a nose can sometimes be the right aesthetic move for men, and why thick skin dramatically impacts swelling, healing, and long-term results. Anthony shares what it's actually like when the cast comes off — the swelling, the reality check, and why being unhappy at first can actually be a good sign.Dr. Rahban also explains why he refuses to use photo morphs, why breathing issues are so often overlooked in men, and how proper consultation separates ethical surgeons from the rest. But this episode goes beyond surgery. Anthony talks about the confidence shift that followed — being unrecognized by clients, family members not noticing anything “obvious,” dating with newfound self-assurance, and finally no longer hiding behind glasses or distractions. If you've ever wondered:Whether rhinoplasty will make you “lose yourself”Why thick or oily skin changes recovery timelinesHow masculinity is preserved (not erased) in male rhinoplastyOr whether aesthetic surgery can genuinely improve how you show up in life…this episode is for you. This is not about perfection.It's about alignment, confidence, breathing better — and living fully.✨ If you enjoyed this episode of Plastic Surgery Uncensored:✔️ Subscribe on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you listen.✔️ Rate & Review—your feedback helps more people find us.✔️ Follow Dr. Rady Rahban across all platforms for daily insights, behind-the-scenes, and patient education:Instagram: @drradyrahbanTikTok: @radyrahbanMDYouTube: @Rady RahbanFacebook: @Rady Rahban✔️ Share this episode with someone considering plastic surgery—the right knowledge can save a life.

From learning to “get from” experiences instead of merely getting through them, to recognizing that progress creates happiness and balance—not extremes—creates longevity, this episode weaves together the wisdom that resonates long after the moment passes.This Best Of collection serves as both a reminder and a reset: fulfillment isn't waiting at a destination. It's found in the journey, in presence, perspective, and the daily choices that shape who we become.EPISODE HIGHLIGHTS: 0:00:32 - Introduction03:22 - Jessica Janzen05:52 - Master Co09:34 - Molly Bloom12:02 - Tod Melnyk15:10 - Emily Williams16:56 - Mara Dorne19:33 - Alvin Brown22:55 - Jaime McKenna25:52 - Rich Diviney29:09 - John Karpov31:16 - Alan Stein Jr.34:04 - Heather MoyseKEY TAKEAWAYS:Perspective can transform frustration into gratitude.Identity drives behavior; what you place after “I am” shapes your choices.You are not your thoughts, emotions, or circumstances — you are the observer of them.Growth comes from introspection and learning from experiences, not just getting through them.Failure becomes lighter when reframed as information, not identity.Sustainable high performance requires balance, not extremes.The journey itself—not the destination—is where fulfillment lives.NOTABLE QUOTES:“We find certainty in some of the smallest things, and that certainty is what gives us purpose.” - Dwayne Kerrigan“You're not the emotion.

    What do a 1970 psychology experiment and the 2008 housing crash have in common? In Episode 6 of Built to Divide, Dimitrius Lynch traces how social identity theory—the instinct to form “us vs. them” groups—became a political weapon that helped sell a bipartisan push for mass homeownership, weaken skepticism, and pave the way for subprime mortgages, mortgage-backed securities (MBS), CDOs, and a crisis engineered by incentives.We move from NAFTA-era globalization and Peter Drucker's “core competencies” mindset, to the dot-com bust, Fed rate cuts, and the explosion of “stated income” lending. The episode spotlights Washington Mutual (WaMu)—from community-friendly bank to shareholder-driven mortgage machine—then follows the collapse, the scapegoating of low-income borrowers, and the rise of institutional investors turning foreclosures into portfolios.

    “Then the Lord sent this message through the prophet Haggai: ‘Why are you living in luxurious houses while my house lies in ruins? This is what the Lord of Heaven's Armies says: Look at what's happening to you! You have planted much but harvest little. You eat but are not satisfied. You drink but are still thirsty. You put on clothes but cannot keep warm. Your wages disappear as though you were putting them in pockets filled with holes.'” - Haggai 1:3-6The book of Haggai is a bit of a jump back to the books of Ezra and Nehemiah and refocuses in on the temple. At its heart, this is a book about priorities. As the passage I just read says, “Why are you living in luxurious houses while my house lies in ruins?” God is using the prophet Haggai to call out hypocrisy, to call out wayward hearts but lo and behold, what happens? The people listen and we get to see God's response to their obedience. Haggai is not the longest book by any means, but there's a lot in it to unpack.

    This episode is a behind-the-scenes look at what really happens when success comes faster than your nervous system knows how to hold.I'm sharing the full story of what unfolded after a wildly intuitive, expansive year in business and how unworthiness, perfectionism, and fear quietly took over once things felt “too easy.” What followed was burnout, over-efforting, identity collapse, and ultimately a five-month sabbatical that changed everything.We're talking about the nervous system science behind becoming the woman you desire to be… not through force or mindset hacks, but through safety, practice, and embodiment. Why “acting as if” actually works, how success can feel threatening to the body, and why breaking was the doorway to everything I was trying to create.This is about becoming her from the inside out.TOPICS & TANGENTS: • What happens when success outpaces nervous system capacity • The hidden unworthiness that follows “too easy” wins • Perfectionism as protection, not discipline • Why success can feel unsafe to the body • The be–do–have model vs. chasing outcomes • Acting as if through nervous system rehearsal, not pretending • Identity, safety, and practicing your future before it arrives • Why abundance requires regulation, not effort • Micro decisions that rewire who you're becomingPOINT OF THE STORY: You don't become her by achieving more. You become her by teaching your body it's safe to be who you already are.MENTIONED: • Microdosing as a nervous-system support for neuroplasticity and regulation • Golden Rule — including Superflow and Soul Gummies • Code ASH10 for 10% offIf you're setting goals for the next season of your life and wondering why they feel heavy instead of exciting, this episode is your reminder: becoming her starts with safety, not pressure.Are you loving it?

    This Christmas, we did something completely different. Instead of planning our usual year-end reflection, we handed control to AI—specifically ChatGPT—and asked it to curate 15 topics based on who we are, what we've experienced this year, and what needs to be said. The result? Well, you're just gonna have to give it a listen! Join Harmony Slater and Russell Case as they explore the intersection of ancient wisdom and cutting-edge technology through discussions that span quantum consciousness, psychedelic healing, the Ashtanga yoga world's reckoning, and the art of finding beauty in life's broken moments.

    Some shifts feel like a choice. Others hit you like a jolt that forces you to look at your life and ask, "Who am I becoming?" This week's episode brings together two mujeres whose stories mirror a truth many of us avoid: sometimes life doesn't fall apart, it pulls you forward.In this episode, we revisit two powerful interviews from 2025 that reveal what happens when a Latina stops moving on autopilot and starts moving with intention. These women's stories are different, yet they echo the same lesson: there comes a moment when you can no longer ignore what your spirit has been asking of you.First, we hear from Brenda Palache, serial entrepreneur and owner of LVS Creations and Bartender Brenda LVS. Brenda traded a stable banking career for the chance to raise her daughter on her terms and build businesses rooted in creativity, family, and freedom. Her leap was not glamorous or convenient. It was necessary. And it reminds us that responsibility can be an anchor or a compass, depending on how we move with it.Then we shift into the emotional and deeply resonant story of Monique Loza, interior designer and founder of Losa Space and Design. Monique didn't step into self-worth. She was pushed into it by betrayal that forced a radical internal shift. Her breaking point became her turning point, revealing a truth she had ignored for years: love that doesn't begin within will never feel like enough.Together, these mujeres offer a message that lands with clarity. Your life expands the moment you stop negotiating with your own needs. Your identity is allowed to evolve. And choosing yourself is not selfish. It is structure. It is healing. It is movement.Tune in to episode 262 and let these stories anchor you in the reminder that you have permission to change your mind, your path, and your life.Episode Takeaways:Why motherhood forced Brenda to rethink what success really meant for her (7:30)The moment she realized that stability was costing her presence and freedom (9:00)How leaving corporate life cracked open her creativity and entrepreneurial courage (10:00)The cultural expectations that shaped Monique's choices and kept her in survival mode (13:50)How betrayal became the mirror that revealed where she had abandoned herself (15:00)The breaking point that led Monique to choose self-worth over staying small (18:40)Why self-love is not a feeling but a practice that rebuilds your entire life (20:00)Why your story is still unfolding and how to step into the version of you that is waiting (22:00)Connect with Brenda Palache:InstagramIVS Creations InstagramConnect with Monique Loza:InstagramFollow Loza Space + Design on InstagramLet's Connect!WebsiteFacebookInstagramJackie Tapia Arbonne's websiteBook: The AMIGA Way Hosted on Acast.

    Join Mike and Tim as they dive into a lively discussion about the essence of family, identity, and faith. In this episode, they explore the concept of "adoption to sonship" and how it redefines our understanding of belonging and community. With humor and depth, they challenge traditional views and invite listeners to consider a broader perspective on what it means to be part of a spiritual family. Tune in for an engaging conversation that blends theology with everyday life, all wrapped in the warmth of the holiday spirit. In this conversation, the hosts explore the themes of faith, family, and community within Christianity, emphasizing the importance of understanding God as a father and the implications of adoption and sonship. They discuss the cultural context of Jesus' teachings, the role of individualism versus community, and the concept of loyalty to God's family. The conversation also touches on the distinction between bounded and centered sets in faith, ultimately inviting listeners to engage in a communal journey of faith. Takeaways: Christian nationalism is alive and well. Father is a status word, not a gender word. To be a part of Jesus is to be a part of his people. Jesus is not your personal savior. We're playing soccer, not rugby. The early Christians did not sharply distinguish between commitment to God and commitment to God's family. Salvation is a social reunification. You cannot be a part of two groups. Loyalty to God is loyalty to God's people. We are playing soccer, not rugby.
