The parable of the Good Samaritan represents how we have been stripped of all that God has given us. Ignorance, malice, concupiscence, and weakness are the wounds we remain inflicted with, even after the grace of baptism. This is why Our Lord reaches out to us, to heal these wounds, and draw us close to Him. We may resist this act of love from God, but His grace conquers all.

The iceberg of ignorance? Yes, you want to avoid it! In this episode, we unpack the iceberg of ignorance and how to avoid running into it and derailing your leadership impact.

The Ignorance Of The False Teachers

(Spirit Rock Meditation Center) The Buddha saw the core problem in human life as "ignorance"(avijjā), not an ignorance of facts or information, but rather a not-knowing about the basic nature of reality and our experience. The Dalai Lama tells us: "There is a fundamental disparity between the way we perceive the world, including our own experience in it, and the way things actually are." We explore how similar understandings of a core human ignorance are found in Plato, Christian and Islamic traditions, and in later Buddhist traditions. The Buddha said, in particular, that we are ignorant about impermanence, dukkha (or reactivity), and the nature of the self. We look into some of the main habitual constructions of experience, including a sense of permanent, stable, separate external objects, and a sense of a separate, independent self, pointing to ways of exploring such constructions meditatively. We also point to experiences in which we go beyond such constructions, in meditation and also in "flow" experiences. The talk is followed by discussion.

Verse by verse study through the book of Acts Chapter Three and Verse Seventeen

When opportunity knocks, sometimes it comes in the most unexpected ways—like someone breaking into your home to steal a salad dressing. That's the unlikely spark that launched Gregory Vetter's entrepreneurial journey, one that would forever change the way Americans think about clean eating. On this episode of On the Brink with Andi Simon, Gregory shares his remarkable story: how he turned his mother's homemade salad dressing into Tessemae's, the nation's #1 organic refrigerated salad dressing brand. His story is more than a business tale—it's a lesson in resilience, innovation, and redefining the American Dream. From a Missing Salad Dressing to a National Brand Gregory's journey began in the humblest way. A friend—who didn't even like salad—confessed to stealing Gregory's mother's homemade dressing. That was the “aha” moment. If the product was so irresistible it could inspire theft, perhaps it was good enough to sell. Armed only with conviction and cold-calling skills, Gregory approached local grocery stores. With no packaging, no brand, and no experience, he brought samples in Tupperware. The response was immediate: “This is the best salad dressing I've ever had.” That first yes opened the door to a 15-year journey that saw Tessemae's become a pioneer in the clean food movement—introducing gum-free dressing, Whole30-approved products, and a national reputation for innovation. Scaling Dreams and Facing Hard Truths But entrepreneurship is rarely a straight line. As Gregory candidly shares, success brought challenges: supply chain crises, investor pressures, and hostile takeover attempts. What began as a family dream turned into a battle of lawyers, negotiations, and financial strain. Eventually, the company was handed to private equity for pennies on the dollar. For many, this might have felt like a nightmare ending. But Gregory reframed it: “Leadership comes down to leading by example and leaving things better than you found them.” Redefining the American Dream That reframing became the core of Gregory's bestselling book, Undressed: The Unfiltered Story of My Failed American Dream and How It Led to Success. In it, he unpacks the lessons of failure—how losing what you built can actually unlock clarity, resilience, and a more grounded understanding of success. Today, Gregory leads Homegrown Brand Accelerator, helping emerging entrepreneurs avoid the pitfalls he faced. From produce businesses with zero food waste to launching Mexico's largest avocado oil brand in the U.S., his playbook is now a blueprint for others. Building Businesses with Purpose Gregory's work now emphasizes something far beyond profits: purpose. His ventures align with values like sustainability, clean food, and personal well-being. He also hosts retreats designed to help leaders find their most “optimal state”—balancing time, health, family, and purpose. He reminds us that money can't buy four essential things: your time, your soul, your health, and your children's love. For him, these are the real pillars of success. Lessons for Entrepreneurs and Leaders Gregory's story is full of takeaways for anyone navigating entrepreneurship or leadership: Ignorance can be fuel. Sometimes not knowing the rules lets you break them creatively. Conviction matters. Believing in your idea—before anyone else does—is often the hardest step. Protect your dream. Be cautious with investors; alignment of values is as important as funding. Failure is a teacher. Reframing setbacks can lead to stronger, wiser ventures. Purpose outlasts profit. Businesses built on doing good create lasting impact. As Gregory puts it, quoting JFK: “The ancient Greek definition of happiness was the full use of your powers along lines of excellence.” When work aligns with purpose, excellence follows. Listen In or Watch on Youtube. This conversation is for anyone who's ever wondered how to turn an idea into reality, or how to rebuild after dreams don't go as planned. Gregory's story is proof that even when things don't end the way you imagined, they can still lead to something greater.  Discover how you can turn your observations into innovations—just like Gregory Vetter.

8-31-25 Biblical-Literacy Mark continued in the study of Romans with a focus on Chapter 5:12-15. He began by sharing that Paul who had a pastoral heart wrote to help us understand Jesus' teachings and the inspiration of the Scriptures. With shovel in hand, Mark proceeded to dig deep in the few verses: 1. Sin's universal entry & reign (verse 12) Through one man, sin came into the world Sin is outside of God Paul personifies sin for our understanding Death entered the world through sin 2. Reign of death before the Law (verse 13 -14) Ignorance is no excuse Still outside the nature of God 3. Greater grace (verse 15) Where grace is greater than the trespass - the cross In Christ we can live Points for home  Understand reality  Marvel at grace  Reject despair and pride Listen to Mark teach the origin of sin as a universal contamination. One sin led to death, and one death led to life

Lama Zopa Rinpoche continues his oral transmission and commentary of the Praise to Buddha Shakyamuni. He explains how the second last verse of this prayer shows how all causative phenomena are transitory and they do not exist in the way they appear. He emphasizes that they do exist, just not in the way they appear.Rinpoche says that it's a very good meditation to continuously practice mindfulness by looking at life as like a dream. Similarly, when we recite the Heart Sutra, we use the word “no” on the merely labeled aggregates, form, feeling, cognition, consciousness. We use the word “no” like an atomic bomb thrown over the object of ignorance, which is the I appearing as a real one existing from its own side.Rinpoche explains how Lama Atisha used the word “AH” instead of “no” when reciting the Heart Sutra. He would say “AH form, AH sound” instead of “no form, no sound”. The reason is because AH is one syllable of the Perfection of Wisdom Sutra, which encompasses the heart of the 84,000 teachings of Shakyamuni Buddha. “AH” is a negative word, the same as “no”; it negates the hallucination of true existence.Rinpoche states that Buddha liberates us by revealing the truth, and it's only the wisdom realizing emptiness that can directly remove our delusions. So, it's important to be continually mindful of looking at the hallucination as a hallucination. Rinpoche says that we should use the dream in the place of no or AH and put the dream over the hallucination. When you practice mindfulness of this continuously, it brings you to the point of realizing emptiness (or at least reducing anger and attachment).From April 10 to May 10, 2004, Lama Zopa Rinpoche gave extensive teachings during the Mahamudra Retreat at Buddha House in Australia. While the retreat focused on Mahamudra, Rinpoche also taught on a wide range of Lamrim topics. This retreat marked the beginning of a series of month-long retreats in Australia. Subsequent retreats were held in 2011, 2014, and 2018, hosted by the Great Stupa of Universal Compassion in Bendigo.Find out more about Lama Zopa Rinpoche, his teachings and projects at https://fpmt.org/

(Group Learning Program) - Chapter 8 - Transforming The Three Poisons: Craving, Anger, and IgnoranceGotama Buddha's Teachings to eliminate craving, anger, and ignorance are known, for good reason, as The Three Poisons, The Three Unwholesome Roots, and The Three Fires. Also known as (greed, hatred, and delusion) or (desire, ill will, and confusion).These are The Three Poisons that exist and are present in the mind as part of rebirth into the human realm. It is our goal, through these Teachings, to eliminate these three poisons through practice of non-craving or generosity, non-anger or loving-kindness, and non-ignorance or wisdom. To attain Enlightenment, one would need to completely eliminate The Three Poisons.In this Podcast, David will help you understand The Three Poisons, how they cause you problems in life, and how to eliminate them from the mind.——-Daily Wisdom - Walking The Path with The BuddhaDedicated to the education of Gotama Buddha's Teachings to attain Enlightenment.https://www.BuddhaDailyWisdom.com(See our website for online learning, courses, and retreats.)Group Learning Program - LIVE Interactive Online Classes, Book, Audiobook, Videos, Podcast and Personal Guidancehttps://mailchi.mp/f958c59262eb/buddhadailywisdomThe Words of The Buddha - Pali Canon in English Study Grouphttps://mailchi.mp/6bb4fdf2b6e0/palicanonstudyprogramFREE Book - Developing a Life Practice: The Path That Leads to Enlightenmenthttps://www.buddhadailywisdom.com/freebuddhabooksFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/DailyWisdom999YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@DailyWisdom999Podcast: https://creators.spotify.com/pod/profile/buddhadailywisdom/Support our efforts to share The Teachings of Gotama Buddha with you and worldwide for all people using this link.https://www.buddhadailywisdom.com/supportbuddha#buddhism #learnbuddhism #enlightenment #dhamma #dharma #buddha #meditation #meditationretreat #meditationcourse

Proof that the only thing scarier than superhero movies is Broadway. It's that time again. We're back with another edition of Cast-A-Role, and this time round we're taking a look at Alejandro González Iñárritu's Oscar-winning, one-shot fever dream, Birdman, starring Micheal Keaton, Edward Nortan and Emma Stone. In this episode we discuss: the outstanding cast, and equally outstanding performance. the stunning cinematography. we break down the character of Riggan Thomson and the effect his career has had on his mind. From Keaton poking fun at his own superhero past to Edward Norton basically playing… Edward Norton, we review and analyze why Birdman: Or (The Unexpected Virtue of Ignorance) is still one of the most talked-about films of the decade. Expect laughs, insights, and maybe a little existential dread along the way.   Other films discussed

In this episode, Dr. Dave Chatterjee sits down with Jasson Casey, CEO & Co-Founder @ Beyond Identity, to dissect the growing threat of identity-based attacks, which now account for nearly 80% of breaches. Casey explains how adversaries increasingly “log in” instead of breaking in, leveraging techniques such as MFA fatigue, session hijacking, and phishing kits. He shares lessons from his professional journey—ranging from building telco networks to advising the U.S. Government and launching Beyond Identity—and explains how his team's identity defense solution eliminates root causes of credential theft while reducing SOC workloads. The discussion also addresses why traditional human training cannot withstand adversaries armed with deepfakes and agentic AI, underscoring the need for technology to carry the defensive burden. Together, Chatterjee and Casey explore the double-edged role of AI, strategies for phased deployments (“ring deployments”), and the importance of embedding identity defense into board-level governance through the Commitment–Preparedness–Discipline (CPD) framework.To access and download the entire podcast summary with discussion highlights -https://www.dchatte.com/episode-89-beyond-passwords-making-identity-based-attacks-impossible-in-the-age-of-ai-2/Connect with Host Dr. Dave Chatterjee and Subscribe to the PodcastPlease subscribe to the podcast so you don't miss any new episodes!

In this episode of The P.A.S. Report, Professor Giordano exposes how the loudest defenders of “democracy” are the same voices working to dismantle the very institutions that protect our Republic. From the Senate to the Supreme Court and the Electoral College, every safeguard designed by the Founding Fathers is under attack in the name of power. Nick explains why these institutions exist, the dangers of tearing them down, and how today's calls to abolish or reinvent them threaten the future of the United States. Episode Highlights Why the Founders intentionally created an undemocratic Senate to protect the rights of states and prevent mob rule How packing the Supreme Court for ideological gain would destroy its independence and moral authority The truth about the Electoral College, why it ensures balance among the states, and why DC statehood is nothing more than a political power grab

One of the biggest money mistakes we can make involves lacking the knowledge to understand a financial decision but going forward anyway. This could include misunderstanding how different savings accounts work, how much it costs to borrow money, or generally how to get out of a bad financial situation.

Through Hosea, the LORD indicts His people for their lack of faithfulness, steadfast love, and knowledge of Him. The last of those three charges takes center stage first. The priests of Israel have failed to teach the people to know the LORD truly, and so the whole land suffers. The idolatry of Israel, led by the priests, has failed to fulfill any of their needs, even as the people foolishly worship pieces of wood. The LORD promises to hold His people accountable from the top to the bottom, for they have lived as stubborn animals. Such sharp words of Law come from the LORD's mouth in order to wake us up from the stupor of our sin so that we might come in repentance and faith to the only source of salvation: Jesus Christ.  Rev. Joel Heckmann, admissions officer for Concordia Seminary in St. Louis, MO, joins host Rev. Timothy Appel to study Hosea 4:1-19.  To learn more about Concordia Seminary, St. Louis, visit csl.edu. “Majoring in the Minors” is a mini-series on Sharper Iron that goes through the books of Hosea, Joel, Jonah, Micah, and Nahum. Although the books of these prophets are shorter, the Word of God they preached was important in the years leading up to the coming of the Christ, and that Word remains important for the Church today. Just as we still need to listen to their call to repentance over our idolatry, so we still need to heed their call to trust in the Savior, Jesus.  Sharper Iron, hosted by Rev. Timothy Appel, looks at the text of Holy Scripture both in its broad context and its narrow detail, all for the sake of proclaiming Christ crucified and risen for sinners. Two pastors engage with God's Word to sharpen not only their own faith and knowledge, but the faith and knowledge of all who listen. Submit comments or questions to: listener@kfuo.org

Last show on the substandard mic - but the paper towel as popfilter helped some.Let's talk tea - what tea were people drinking in the early 19th century?  The answer was almost uniformly, "bad tea".  Ignorance lead to people needing sugar in their tea b/c they were drinking the bad stuff.  In fact a whole grade of "export quality" tea was invented to fulfill the growing global/European/American demand.  Just in this case - "expot quality" mostly meant the dregs.  Or the dust anyway.Understanding that most tea Americans were drinking in this age was somewhere between stale and adulterated, and only became more so as time went on, the swing to coffee starts to make more sense.  It had less to do with feelings towards England, and more to do with the tea just not tasting that good.  To understand just what tea was then, join in...Music Credit: Fingerlympics by Doctor TurtleShow Notes: https://thehistoryofamericanfood.blogspot.com/Email: TheHistoryofAmericanFood at gmail dot comThreads: @THoAFoodInstagram: @THoAFood& some other socials... @THoAFood

When “War is peace. Freedom is slavery. Ignorance is strength” we are living in an era of alternate facts. Mary and Andrew apply this Orwellian concept to what's happening this week, after President Trump cited section 740 of the Home Rule Act to federalize the DC police force and send in the national guard to the nation's capital. They detail how the president was able to do this and why Congress will be the ultimate arbiter of this move. Then, they highlight some litigation befitting this theme, with Judge Breyer's trial starting this week on the use of the national guard in Los Angeles, and some decisions including not to unseal grand jury testimony in the Ghislaine Maxwell case, plus an Appeals court blocking contempt proceedings in JGG. Last up, Andrew and Mary take a look at Judge Henderson's opinion in the OMB case and why it deserves more attention than it's received. Further reading: Here is President Trump's letter to Congress citing section 740, courtesy of the New York Times.And some exciting news: tickets are on sale now for MSNBC Live – our second live community event featuring more than a dozen MSNBC hosts.

Why do people reject biblical creation despite compelling evidence? Through a conversation with bikers in Scotland, we explore two types of ignorance that keep people from accepting God’s truth about origins. Some genuinely don’t know creation science exists, while others willfully ignore it to avoid accountability to their Creator. The big questions of life—where we came from, why we’re here, and what happens when we die—receive vastly different answers depending on your worldview.

What is ignorance, and how is it a stumbling block to faith?How can we make sure we do not prove ignorant of God in Christ intellectually, relationally, or experientially?Stumbling Blocks to Faith: IgnoranceOutline | Conversation

In this episode of The Alpha Male Coach Podcast, we step back to see the bigger picture - a perspective that goes beyond daily struggles and into the foundation of how reality itself is created. Brother, we explore the source of our collective results, from governments and economies to our personal lives, and trace them back to a single point of origin: thought.You'll learn why nothing in our world - money, politics, or even societal structures - exists without human consciousness. These are not independent forces. They are results of ideologies that have been repeated, reinforced, and manifested into the dream we call reality. And just like a dream, most of us remain unaware that we are creating it.In this episode, I shift from the "game" analogy to a powerful new framework: the "dream analogy." Here, we see life not as a battle against an external opponent but as a shared dream emerging from a single source - one dreamer. Whether you call it God, Gaia, Sophia, or universal intelligence, the truth is the same: we are all projections of this one dreamer. When we awaken within this dream - when we become lucid - we gain the ability to consciously shape it.We'll break down:How ignorance creates error, and why these errors are not “bad,” but simply signals pointing us toward correction.Why suffering is not punishment, but feedback - a call to return to wisdom.How to use the model of alignment to uncover the root of your results and transform them from the inside out.Why the real opponent isn't other people, circumstances, or even “evil” in the traditional sense, but the unconscious ideologies that keep us asleep in the dream.Brothers, this is not about judgment. This is not about shame. This is about awareness. When you understand that all suffering stems from ignorance - not malice - you begin to see the pathway to change. You stop blaming “the world out there” and start recognizing your role as a lucid dreamer, a creator capable of shifting your personal reality and contributing to the awakening of the collective dream.This episode is a call to move beyond unconscious creation. It's an invitation to step into ownership of your mind, to examine the stories you've been living, and to replace ignorance with wisdom. From that place, your actions align with truth. Your results begin to serve not only you but humanity and all living beings.Whether you're ready to understand quantum reality, deepen your spiritual practice, or simply learn how to transform the results in your life, this episode will challenge you, empower you, and wake you up to the truth of what you are: a dreamer in the dream.Brothers, it's time to awaken, take ownership of your mind, and lucidly create the life - and the world - you're here to build.Listen now and elevate your alpha.

For all the New Kids who've recently joined our merry band of BWW rabble-rousers, a hearty Welcome Aboard. Here's a little background on podcasts and, specifically, Don Williams.Don and I have been buds since the early 1990s when he was a Smithsonian Institute Curator and I was a DC radio Talk Show host. I will always be indebted to Don for introducing me to Walter Williams, who went on to become one of my best friends and regular talk show guests. There are several podcasts with Don in the BWW Achieves. Podcasts are posted when time and opportunity align, which explains their infrequency. Since the Beginning of BWW, we have been plagued with technical issues due to mutual Ignorance of Host and/or Guest, the vicissitudes of various platforms, software glitches, and Donald Trump. This is one of those times when someone's camera or another ZOOM update or Donald Trump's tariffs invaded our space, maligning the Video portion but, thankfully, preserving the audio.My apologies. Maybe next time, the Tech Planets X and O will cooperate.BWThanks for reading Brian Wilson Writes! This post is public so feel free to share it.

In this classic episode from 2021, we consider what Roman Catholicism means by "ex cathedra." Plus, we ask, and seek to answer, what do we need to know.

Jesus wasn't a Christian. He was a Jew. That truth alone is enough to unravel centuries of misunderstanding - and stir up the spiritual resistance of our age. In this powerful episode, Scott Volk shares his deeply personal journey from being an "ignorant Jewish pastor" to leading a global ministry that blesses both Jews and Arabs in the name of Yeshua.  With passion and clarity, Scott dismantles replacement theology, calls the Church to awaken from its apathy, and reminds us that Israel holds the key to God's redemptive plan for the world. From heartfelt humor to prophetic fire, this is more than theology. It's a wake-up call for the Church to embrace the Jewishness of Jesus, God's eternal promises, and the unity He desires among all people. Key Takeaways Jesus was never a Christian. He was, is, and always will be Jewish - and understanding that reshapes everything. The Church is missing a crucial piece. Without Israel, we don't just miss context - we miss God's plan. Ignorance isn't innocence. Even well-meaning pastors can miss the heart of God without revelation. God chose the weak - not the worthy. Israel isn't superior. It's chosen to showcase God's glory. Anti-Zionism often masks anti-Semitism. Scott draws a straight line from Haman to Hamas. We need a four-fold response: Pray. Provoke. Proclaim. Provide. This is how the Church blesses Israel biblically. Revival hinges on Israel. Romans 11 calls the salvation of the Jewish people “life from the dead.” True unity doesn't erase ethnicity. It celebrates the One who redeems every tribe, tongue, and nation. God gets the glory - not Israel, not America, not us. Humility is the only posture for this moment.

One of the many signs of self-realization, or spiritual progress, is a natural decline in attachment to having our desires fulfilled. Thom explored this in depth in an earlier episode on vairagya, or non-attachment.Ironically, another hallmark of self-realization is that our desires actually become more likely to be fulfilled. In this episode, Thom explores why that is, through the lens of punya, a concept from the Vedic tradition.As with most Vedic principles, punya isn't something we need to believe in, it's something we can verify directly through our own personal experience.Episode Highlights[00:45] Support of Nature for Your Desires[03:14] Degrees of Cosmic Intelligence[07:21] Only Evolution is Happening[09:16] How Big is Your Consciousness?[12:11] Who is the I?[15:26] Something Happened on the Way to Disneyland[18:43] Spoiler Alert[21:05] Leishavidya – The Faint Remains of Ignorance[24:41] Nothing is Going WrongUseful Linksinfo@thomknoles.com https://thomknoles.com/https://www.instagram.com/thethomknoleshttps://www.facebook.com/thethomknoleshttps://www.youtube.com/c/thomknoleshttps://thomknoles.com/ask-thom-anything/

The desire to pursue a passion can be a powerful motivator for individuals, often driving them to learn and grow despite feelings of unqualification or inexperience. This theme is vividly illustrated in this podcast episode featuring tattoo artist Chris Crooks, who shares his journey into the world of tattooing with host Aaron Della Vedova. From a young age, Chris was immersed in tattoo culture, with both of his grandfathers and his father sporting tattoos. This early exposure ignited a desire within him to become a tattoo artist, even before he fully understood the craft. He reflects on how the "desire to do it was bigger than the capabilities," highlighting a common experience among many who pursue their passions. This intrinsic motivation propelled him to acquire the skills necessary for success in tattooing, despite his initial lack of experience. Aaron sits down with Chris at Gods of Ink in Frankfurt, Germany. Aaron reflects on the tattoo artist journey that is rarely straightforward and lacks a clear roadmap.  The conversation explores the intricacies of the tattooing process and the passion that fuels artists in this creative field. Tune in for insights into the art of tattooing and the stories behind the ink. Chat Breakdown: 00:00:00 - Overcoming Limitations

"Tattooing is like this, this lifestyle, find a decision, make the decision, go all in." "The biggest stumbling blocks for white guys aspiring to do Japanese stuff is other white guys that have been doing it longer."

Ignorance over stupidity.

Carl Sagan wasn't a prophet, just a brilliant scientist who saw the writing on the wall decades ago. This episode unpacks his chillingly accurate predictions about America's descent into misinformation, scientific illiteracy, and a society where critical thinking is abandoned for superstition. We dive deep into how his warnings about issues like climate change were tragically ignored, highlighting the dangers of prioritizing profit over people and the urgent need for a return to reason. It's a stark reminder of the uphill battle against denial, and why teaching skepticism to future generations is our only hope against unchecked power and climate catastrophe. Time to forge a new future with compassion, courage, and empirical evidence!News Source: Carl Sagan predicted present state of USA almost 26 years ago: Visionary scientist By Vani Khokar for Scoop Upworthy July 7, 2025

Churches may be spiritual communities, but they operate in a legal world. And many aren't prepared. In today's episode, Sam interviews Ryan June of Castañeda + Heidelman LLP, and we unpack the five most common legal issues churches face: child protection, property disputes, employment law, governance and bylaws, and intellectual property. Ignorance of the law is not a spiritual gift. Whether your church is 50 years old or just starting, these legal risks can't be ignored. The post The Top 5 Legal Issues Churches Face Today appeared first on Church Answers.

In this special bonus episode of Selective Ignorance, Mandii B turns the spotlight on the pleasure chapter of her book, No Holes Bared, opening up a candid and empowering conversation about the importance of pleasure education—especially for women navigating a world full of mixed messages around sex and self-worth. [00:00] The episode kicks off with a deep dive into what pleasure education really means, why it's often overlooked, and how reclaiming that knowledge can be transformative. Mandii reflects on her own journey, offering personal stories about her upbringing and how early relationships shaped her views on intimacy and self-acceptance. [13:01] As she unpacks the challenges of early adulthood, Mandii speaks openly about learning to prioritize her own needs, emotionally and physically, in relationships. [27:11] The conversation turns to self-pleasure and sexual exploration, emphasizing the role these experiences play in developing confidence, body autonomy, and emotional clarity. [27:41] A moment of unexpected connection leads into a broader discussion on safety and trust, especially when trying new things. [28:10] Mandii shares how learning to set boundaries helped her feel empowered, not only in intimate moments but in life at large. [29:57] The episode explores how past relationships can influence future choices, highlighting the ways personal growth often stems from heartbreak and healing. [31:34] Mandii breaks down what it really means to “shoot your shot”, revealing how confidence, fear of rejection, and vulnerability all play a part in pursuing what (or who) you want. [35:40] The conversation expands into sexual liberation, exploring the delicate balance between exploration and setting personal boundaries. [41:19] Mandii contextualizes these experiences within cultural norms, especially the stigmas that often shape women’s understanding of pleasure and sexuality.

In this bonus episode of Selective Ignorance, Mandii B is joined by music journalist Jayson Rodriguez and cultural curator A-King for a deep, soulful dive into the world of R&B. [00:00] The conversation kicks off with a look at R&B’s cultural impact, tracing how the genre has served as both a mirror and a balm for generations of listeners. [03:08] The trio explores the evolution of R&B within the music industry, from its gospel and soul roots to its intersections with pop and hip-hop. They reflect on [06:01] what truly defines R&B, arguing that the emotional depth, lived experience, and vulnerability in the music are what make it timeless. [08:48] The discussion shifts to the role of media in shaping R&B’s visibility, and how the genre’s presence has changed on major platforms. From there, they break down [12:07] today’s R&B landscape, spotlighting emerging artists, and asking whether the genre is truly experiencing a renaissance—or if it’s still fighting for space. [15:00] Hip-hop’s influence on R&B comes into focus, both as a source of collaboration and creative tension. [17:48] Nostalgia enters the chat as the group reminisces about classic sounds, beloved groups, and the feeling that something essential has been lost in the transition to modern trends. [20:40] They dig into the evolution of vocal standards, noting how raw vocal ability has often taken a back seat to aesthetics and production polish. That leads into [23:53] a conversation about the challenges and opportunities shaping R&B’s future—from streaming culture to label support and artist independence. The episode doesn’t shy away from nuance. [38:47] They unpack the shift from "thug love" to hyper-masculinity in male R&B, questioning what this means for intimacy and expression. [42:29] The aesthetic evolution of artists—from fashion to persona—gets its own spotlight, while [44:24] nostalgia and critiques of the genre’s supposed "decline" add further layers to the dialogue. [50:20] The conversation turns to women in R&B, debating whether they're thriving or still being boxed in by industry expectations. As the energy rises, the group shares their dream lineups for [54:36] future R&B tours and collaborations, imagining what a curated revival could look like. To wrap things up, they discuss [01:00:29] the legacy of R&B through the lens of underrated and overrated albums, and [01:09:26] share their predictions and hopes for the future of the genre—highlighting artists to watch, sonic shifts on the horizon, and the timeless power of R&B when done right. This episode is a love letter, a critique, and a call to action for anyone who’s ever had their heart healed by a hook or a harmony. “No Holes Barred: A Dual Manifesto Of Sexual Exploration And Power” w/ Tempest X!Sale Link Follow the host on Social MediaMandii B Instagram/X @fullcourtpumpsFollow the show on Social MediaInstagram @selectiveignorancepodTiktok @selective.ignoranceX/Twitter @selectiveig_podSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
