Your calendar is packed, your phone never stops, and somehow your body still thinks every moment is an emergency. We sit down with clinical psychologist and mindfulness teacher Dr Elisha Goldstein to talk about his book *Tiny Shifts* and the practical reality behind emotional steadiness: you do not need a new personality or a perfect morning routine, you need a reliable way to access your skills when stress hijacks your brain.We break down the “emotional loop” that drives reactivity, shutdown, self-criticism, doomscrolling, and those “not this again” moments. Elisha explains how thoughts, emotions, body sensations, and actions link together, and why simple recognition changes what is possible by bringing more perspective and impulse control online. From there we get concrete about “release” as nervous system regulation: lowering the shoulders, lengthening the exhale, softening the jaw, shaking out tension, or even writing down intrusive thoughts, not to suppress emotions but to create capacity.We also go deep on emotional vocabulary and communication, including lessons from nonviolent communication and how AI can act as temporary training wheels when hard conversations feel impossible. Along the way we explore what emotional health actually means, how self-worth grows when we can receive kindness without deflecting, and why repeating a tiny phrase like “I am loving awareness” can be a powerful pivot when you are stuck in an old pattern.If you want mindfulness that holds up in real life, this one is for you.

Mindfulness is everywhere now, but the way we talk about it can feel strangely small: a tool for stress, a way to focus, a better “hack” for busy lives. I sit down with Melvin McLeod, editor-at-large at Lion's Roar, co-founder of Mindful Magazine, and a practitioner for over 40 years, to make a bigger claim that stays grounded in reality: mindfulness can be a complete path of living in a secular, evidence-based world.Melvin's new book: With a Single Breath: The Complete Path of Mindfulnesshttps://a.co/d/0aIwcRC6We trace how modern mindfulness took shape through teachers like Thich Nhat Hanh and Jon Kabat-Zinn, and why the early success of mindfulness-based stress reduction (MBSR) may be the foundation for a deeper cultural shift. Melvin shares why he believes the movement is ready for its next step: not abandoning the practical benefits, but expanding them through a fuller definition of practice that includes insight, compassion, ethics, and community.Melvin lays out five keys he builds on in With a Single Breath: meditation, insight, love and compassion, ethics, and community. We dig into the often-missed second phase of mindfulness: using a steadier mind to investigate the nature of experience, see what truly causes suffering, and learn what creates real happiness that is “win-win.” Along the way, he offers simple contemplations, including looking at the universe in a single flower, to bring interdependence from concept into direct experience.If you've ever felt that mindfulness should be more than self-improvement, this conversation is a clear, practical invitation to go deeper.

Your meditation doesn't need better willpower, a quieter mind, or a more “spiritual” seat on the floor. With renowned meditation teacher Susan Piver, we practice a clear, grounded approach to mindfulness meditation that starts where your body already is: feeling your weight land, sitting upright with dignity, softening the belly, and letting the jaw and shoulders finally unclench. If you've ever wondered whether a chair “counts,” you'll love her reminder that it does.We also explore eyes-open meditation in a way that feels surprisingly gentle. Susan shares how to cast the gaze down, let vision mix with space, and stop turning attention into a hard stare. From there we move into breath awareness without breath control, and a key insight that changes everything for overthinkers: don't just notice the breath, feel it as expansion and letting go.Then we get honest about thoughts. Thinking isn't the enemy, and spacing out isn't failure. When you catch yourself lost in a storyline, you silently label “thinking,” let go, and return. The best part: you get infinite fresh starts. We close with a behind-the-scenes conversation on teaching meditation, timing silence, and adjusting pacing online or in a room by reading the group's energy with humility.Subscribe for more practical mindfulness, share this with a friend who wants a simpler practice, and leave a review.

Trying harder can feel like the only option until it stops working. We sit down with Solala Towler, a longtime teacher of Qigong, Taoist meditation, and the Way of Tea, to explore a different approach: alignment over strain, flow over force, and practice that meets you where you are. Solala shares his personal path into Eastern philosophy, the early hunger for something more grounded than words, and the moment Taoist teachings clicked with a sense of “coming home.”From there, the conversation turns deeply practical. Solala explains how chronic fatigue syndrome left him bedridden, how Chinese herbs helped him stand again, and why Qigong became central to his healing journey. We talk about Taoism as the root of many Chinese medicine principles and how working with qi is not reserved for the ultra-fit or the already-calm. Standing, moving, seated, and even lying-down forms make Taoist meditation and Qigong accessible tools for stress relief, recovery, and steady energy.We also dig into the core Taoist principles that change how you live day to day: flexibility, authenticity, and especially wu wei, often misunderstood as doing nothing. Here it becomes something sharper and kinder: not forcing, not overextending, not pushing the river. The metaphor of water runs through it all, showing how adaptability can be strength rather than compromise. Finally, we explore why nature is considered the highest teacher in Taoism, and how seasonal rhythms can guide your body and mind back toward balance.If you found something helpful here, subscribe so you don't miss what's next, share the episode with a friend who needs a softer way forward, and leave a review.

Busy can start to feel like a personality, especially when you're doing meaningful work and getting rewarded for it. Sean Fargo sits down with Buddhist meditation teacher and author Lodro Rinzler to unpack what happened when external success still left him exhausted, stretched thin, and craving something he couldn't schedule: space. We talk about the real-life shift from New York City to the Hudson Valley, and why changing your environment can be a powerful mindfulness practice all by itself. Lodro shares how he and his wife clarified a single intention for his work, what it looks like to protect relationships while still serving others, and why doubling down on daily meditation and longer retreats can be the most practical form of self-care. If you've been searching for mindfulness for burnout, a sustainable meditation routine, or a way to stop feeling “always on,” you'll hear a grounded path forward. Then we move into heart practices drawn from Tibetan Buddhism that are widely shared across traditions: the four immeasurables of loving-kindness, compassion, sympathetic joy, and equanimity. Lodro explains how loving-kindness for yourself includes the parts you like, the parts you regret, and the parts you'd rather ignore, and he offers an unexpectedly simple “loving-kindness photo” exercise for working with people you find difficult. We also point you to free guided meditations on Lodro's website so you can practice immediately.

Your mind does not just record reality, it edits it, polarizes it, and then makes decisions based on the edit. That is why we can feel certain we are “right” while repeating the same relationship patterns, motivation struggles, and self-sabotaging habits. We welcome world-renowned human behavior expert Dr. John DiMartini to unpack a practical way out: the DiMartini Method, a structured series of cognitive questions designed to balance perception, surface what we have been unconscious of, and turn apparent chaos into usable feedback. We talk about how quickly we can idealize or demonize people by staying conscious of upsides and unconscious of downsides, and how that split perception fuels infatuation, resentment, and regret. Dr. DiMartini shares how asking higher-quality questions can equilibrate the mind, reduce emotional reactivity, and help us become more present so life feels “on the way, not in the way.” If you care about mindfulness, emotional resilience, and personal transformation, this is a concrete framework you can apply immediately. From there, we go deep into values based living and why your hierarchy of values quietly runs your goals, your habits, and your sense of self-worth. Dr. DiMartini explains the difference between intrinsic motivation and extrinsic motivation, why misaligned goals require constant pushing, and how adopting someone else's “shoulds” can erode authenticity. He also points to his free values determination process at drdmartin.com as a way to clarify what truly matters, set congruent goals, and fill your days with high-priority actions instead of low-priority distractions.

Burnout doesn't usually arrive as a dramatic collapse. It shows up as subtle numbness, constant urgency, and a workplace culture that celebrates “push through” while quietly ignoring the nervous system that makes performance possible. Sean Fargo sits down with Rosina Geiger to explore a concept that belongs at the center of every sustainability strategy: human sustainability. If your ESG goals focus on the planet and the numbers but forget the people doing the work, the system won't hold. Rosina brings a rare inside view from SAP, where she works on sustainability customer adoption and also serves as a Global Mindfulness Ambassador. We talk about the “S” in ESG, the social pillar, and what it looks like when organizations treat mindfulness at work and emotional intelligence as real capabilities, not soft extras. You'll hear how simple rituals like a one-minute arrival can change meetings, reduce reactivity, and build psychological safety across teams. We also go deeper into nervous system awareness through Rosina's experience with long COVID and mind-body coaching, connecting recovery to regulation, rest, and a kinder relationship with intensity. Along the way, we unpack practical tools you can try immediately: micro check-ins that create human connection, three-breath resets, and structured journaling prompts that help people listen to what the body and mind are actually saying. We end with a grounded reminder: you can't force people to change, but the way you show up influences more than you think.

The most common reason people hold back from teaching mindfulness isn't lack of talent, it's that quiet thought: “I'm not good enough to lead this.” We sit down with Buddhist meditation teacher and author Lodro Rinzler to get honest about imposter syndrome, self doubt, and the pressure to be “perfect” before you help anyone else.We talk about what responsible teaching actually looks like: doing real practice, learning the terrain, and finding your own authentic voice instead of copying someone else's script. Lodro shares a powerful reframing: doubt may keep showing up, but you can choose whether it gets to drive. That idea lands not only for meditation teachers, but for writers, parents, and anyone building something meaningful while feeling exposed.From there, we explore shame, guilt, and the Buddhist lens on Hiri and Ottappa, including how “positive shame” can become wise regret that helps you change without crushing your spirit. Finally, we step into a bigger question that many listeners wrestle with right now: how to relate to harm, polarisation, and the concept of evil without giving up on basic goodness or losing your backbone.If you care about meditation, compassion, and staying human in a divided world, this conversation will meet you where you are and still challenge you.

La chute des faux influenceurs 100% IA Par Régis BAUDOUIN Elle est jeune, elle a les cheveux roses, elle partage ses séances de fitness à Barcelone et pose pour des marques de cosmétiques ou de gaming. Son nom ? Aitana López. Ses abonnés ? Plus de 390 000 sur Instagram. Le problème ? Elle n'existe pas. En ce début d’été 2026, le monde du marketing d'influence traverse une crise d'authenticité sans précédent. Des dizaines de marques mondiales (dans la mode, la beauté ou la tech) inondent nos flux de vidéos de “faux clients” et faux influenceurs ultra-réalistes générés par IA pour vendre leurs produits, souvent sans aucune mention légale. faux influenceurs C’est le phénomène des Fake out of home FOOH, des faux avis de consommateurs et des influenceurs totalement fakes pilotés en fait par des marques ou des agences qui travaillent pour des marques. Mais la résistance s’organise. Lassés d’être trompés, les internautes traquent désormais les moindres pixels pour faire tomber les masques. Qu’est-ce que le Fake Out of Home (FOOH) ? Traditionnellement, le Out of Home (OOH) désigne la publicité physique dans la rue : les panneaux d’affichage, les abribus, ou les écrans géants de Times Square. Le Fake OOH, c’est l’art de créer une publicité extérieure qui n’existe pas dans le monde réel, mais qui est mise en scène dans une vidéo ultra-réaliste partagée sur les réseaux sociaux. L’objectif est de faire croire aux internautes qu’un événement spectaculaire s’est produit en plein cœur d’une grande ville. Exemples marquants qui ont lancé la tendance : Jacquemus : La marque de mode a fait le buzz mondial avec une vidéo montrant d’immenses sacs à main géants montés sur roues, roulant au milieu des voitures dans les rues de Paris. jacquemus Maybelline : Une vidéo virale montrait une rame de métro londonienne ou un bus à impériale passer sous un mascara géant fixé à un monument, appliquant du produit sur les cils du véhicule. maybeline L’Oréal : Un rouge à lèvres géant attaché à une Citroën 2CV traçant une ligne rouge géante sur le bitume de la place de l’Opéra à Paris. l’oreal La technique derrière l’illusion : La CGI plutôt que l’IA Contrairement aux idées reçues, le FOOH n’est pas le produit d’une intelligence artificielle générative textuelle (comme Midjourney). C’est un travail d’orfèvre qui repose sur la CGI (Computer Generated Imagery) et les effets spéciaux 3D traditionnels, combinés à de la captation réelle. Le processus se déroule en trois étapes : La captation réelle : Un opérateur filme un lieu ultra-connu (la Tour Eiffel, Big Ben, une station de métro) avec un simple smartphone pour donner un aspect “amateur” et authentique à la vidéo. Le Camera Tracking (Suivi de mouvement) : Un logiciel (comme Blender, After Effects ou Maya) analyse les mouvements de la caméra pour recréer l’espace en 3D. L’incrustation 3D : L’objet publicitaire virtuel est intégré. Le secret de l’illusion réside dans le traitement de la lumière, des ombres portées sur le sol et des reflets sur les bâtiments réels. Pourquoi les marques adorent Le FOOH a brisé les règles du marketing pour une raison simple : le rapport coût / impact est imbattable. Zéro coût d’infrastructure : Louer un panneau géant à Times Square ou recouvrir la façade d’un immeuble parisien coûte des centaines de milliers d’euros en taxes, autorisations municipales et frais d’installation. Une vidéo FOOH ne coûte que le salaire du graphiste 3D. Le reach organique mondial : Une bâche publicitaire physique n’est vue que par les passants de la rue. Une vidéo FOOH bien calibrée génère des millions de partages sur TikTok et Instagram en quelques heures. Aucune contrainte physique : La gravité, la météo ou la sécurité n’existent plus. On peut faire flotter un flacon de parfum géant au-dessus de la Seine sans demander l’avis de la préfecture. Le piège de la désinformation publicitaire Le FOOH repose sur un mensonge consenti. Au début, les internautes s’extasiaient en pensant que l’événement était réel. Aujourd’hui, une partie du public se sent trompée en découvrant que tout est faux. Cela pose plusieurs questions éthiques et pratiques : La déception du consommateur : Des touristes se sont rendus sur des lieux précis à Paris ou Londres pour voir l’installation publicitaire “géniale” vue sur TikTok, pour n’y trouver qu’un trottoir vide. La dilution du vrai : À force de voir du faux ultra-réaliste partout, le public développe un scepticisme généralisé. Quand une marque réalise une vraie performance physique et coûteuse dans la rue, les internautes la balayent d’un revers de main en disant : “C’est de la 3D”. Le flou juridique : Est-ce de la publicité mensongère ? Les marques ont-elles le droit d’utiliser l’image de monuments historiques ou de l’espace public pour y incruster virtuellement leurs produits à des fins commerciales sans payer de droits à la municipalité ? Le débat juridique s’intensifie. Pourquoi les marques adorent l’IA Pour les directeurs marketing, l’argument économique est devenu imparable. Selon les données publiées par le Blog IA sur le marché des influenceurs, le secteur des avatars virtuels pèse désormais plusieurs milliards de dollars. Des icônes pionnières comme Aitana López génèrent jusqu’à 10 000 € par mois sans jamais quitter un disque dur. Les avantages pour une entreprise ? Un influenceur virtuel ne vieillit pas, ne prend pas de vacances, ne demande pas d’augmentation et surtout, il ne risque pas de créer un bad buzz à 2 heures du matin sur les réseaux sociaux. La dérive de 2026 : Le faux “User Generated Content” (UGC) La nouveauté de cet été, dénoncée par les experts en cybersécurité de Reality Defender, ce ne sont plus les top-models virtuels parfaits et évidents. Ce sont les “faux clients ordinaires”. Les marques utilisent des outils comme Captions.ai ou Glambase pour générer la vidéo d’une jeune mariée en larmes ou d’un étudiant dans sa chambre vantant les mérites d’une application ou d’un produit. L’illusion de la recommandation sincère est totale, alors que le visage et le témoignage sont 100% synthétiques. fake profils IA ou Humain ? On va voir si on peut faire la différence entre un vrai profil et du fake. Cas N°1 : La Fit-Girl aux cheveux roses Le profil présenté : Une créatrice de contenu de 26 ans, passionnée de fitness, de jeux vidéo, affichant un style de vie audacieux et californien. Le piège visuel à observer : Regardez fixement la texture de sa peau sur ses photos de plage. Malgré la sueur apparente, aucun pore n’est visible, la lumière sur ses cheveux roses est mathématiquement parfaite et les reflets dans ses yeux ne bougent jamais de manière asymétrique. Le verdict : IA (Faux) ! Il s’agit d’Aitana López, un modèle espagnol entièrement géré par l’agence The Clueless, comme le détaille sa fiche encyclopédique sur Wikipédia – Aitana López. Elle est le pur produit d’un algorithme de génération d’images. fake profil Cas N°2 : Le vulgarisateur Tech décalé Le profil présenté : Un podcasteur et vidéaste français spécialisé dans l’intelligence artificielle, qui publie des vidéos où il fait croire à son équipe que son collègue de bureau est une IA ou qu’il possède une sœur jumelle virtuelle. Le piège visuel à observer : Les expressions faciales sont fluides, les imperfections cutanées sont réelles, les micro-mouvements des mains et les hésitations de langage sont typiquement humaines. Le verdict : Humain (Vrai) ! C’est la créatrice Estherium (Diane Benhamou), une véritable influenceuse tech française comptant plus de 580 000 abonnés. Elle utilise l’IA comme sujet d’étude et outil de divertissement, mais elle est bel et bien réelle. vrai profil Cas N°3 : Le mannequin Streetwear de Tokyo Le profil présenté : Une influenceuse mode repérée au premier rang des défilés de luxe à Tokyo, arborant des coupes de cheveux ultra-précises et des looks pointus. Le piège visuel à observer : Inspectez les arrière-plans des photos. Les passants dans la rue ont parfois des visages légèrement flous ou des membres disproportionnés. L’intégration de ses pieds sur le sol manque parfois d’ombres portées naturelles. Le verdict : IA (Faux) ! C’est Imma (@imma.gram), un mannequin virtuel créé par l’agence japonaise ModelingCafe. Son visage est entièrement modélisé en 3D puis incrusté sur des corps de vrais modèles et dans de vrais décors urbains. fake Les 3 détails techniques pour repérer un faux influenceur Pour vous aider dans l’hygiène des avatars, voici les anomalies physiques indétectables pour l’œil distrait, mais flagrantes pour un observateur averti : Le syndrome des lobes d’oreilles et des bijoux asymétriques : Les IA ont un mal fou avec la symétrie. Regardez les boucles d’oreilles d’un profil suspect : elles ont rarement la même forme ou la même attache à gauche et à droite. De même, les lunettes de soleil ont souvent une branche légèrement plus haute ou un verre à la courbure imparfaite. L'arrière-plan liquide : C'est le maillon faible des générateurs de vidéos. Si l’influenceur virtuel bouge la tête, observez le décor juste derrière ses cheveux. Vous verrez le fond (un mur, un arbre, une voiture) se déformer ou “baver” légèrement pendant une fraction de seconde, car l’algorithme peine à recalculer les pixels cachés. Les mains et les dents : Même en 2026, générer des mains réalistes en plein mouvement reste complexe. Les doigts des humains virtuels sont souvent trop longs, les articulations manquantes ou les ongles étrangement fusionnés. Côté sourire, les dents sont souvent trop nombreuses, parfaitement alignées comme un bloc de faïence unique, sans espace interdentaire naturel. L’avis des consommateurs sur les influenceurs générés par IA est en train de passer d’un sentiment de fascination technologique à une profonde crise de méfiance. C’est un sujet d’analyse comportementale passionnant pour XY Mag, car il touche directement au cœur de ce qui fait l’essence des réseaux sociaux : l’authenticité. Voici comment se divisent les réactions et les attentes des consommateurs aujourd’hui : Que pense le public des influenceur IA Pour une partie du public le plus jeune, la frontière entre le réel et le virtuel est poreuse. Le point positif : Ces consommateurs perçoivent les avatars IA (comme Lil Miquela ou Aitana López) comme des personnages d’un nouveau genre, à la croisée du jeu vidéo, de la pop culture et de l’art numérique. Ils apprécient l’esthétique parfaite, la créativité des visuels et le storytelling scénarisé comme une série Netflix. Le contrat implicite : Tant que l’avatar est ouvertement virtuel (ce qui est le cas des pionniers du secteur), le consommateur ne se sent pas trompé. Il suit le profil pour l’inspiration mode ou artistique, de la même manière qu’il suivrait un personnage de manga ou de film d’animation. Il sait bien qu’il est manipulé mais le divertissement l’emporte sur la marque. Le sentiment de trahison et le “syndrome de la vallée dérangeante” Pour la majorité des consommateurs, l’apparition des faux profils de consommateurs provoque un rejet viscéral. Le malaise de l’Uncanny Valley : Visuellement, plus l’IA approche de la perfection humaine, plus elle déclenche une sensation de malaise (la fameuse vallée dérangeante). Un infime détail (un regard fixe, un mouvement de lèvre un peu trop lisse) suffit à provoquer le dégoût ou la méfiance chez l’internaute. L’arnaque à la sincérité : Le principe de base d’un influenceur est de recommander un produit parce qu’il l’a “testé, touché ou ressenti”. Or, les consommateurs rejettent massivement l’idée qu’un tas de pixels puisse vanter la texture d’une crème hydratante, l’autonomie d’un smartphone ou le goût d’un café. L’avis est perçu comme 100 % faux et purement commercial. La colère face aux “faux humains dissimulés” C'est le point de friction majeur. Les consommateurs tolèrent les mannequins virtuels cyberpunk, mais ils détestent les faux profils ordinaires. Lorsque des marques créent de faux comptes de “madame tout le monde” (une mère de famille qui donne des conseils de cuisine, un étudiant qui teste des vêtements abordables) en utilisant l’IA sans le mentionner, les consommateurs hurlent au scandale. Découvrir que le témoignage touchant ou le conseil bienveillant d’un internaute a été rédigé et modélisé par une agence marketing est vécu comme une manipulation psychologique. En fait en droit c’est une tromperie. Ce que réclament les internautes Les attentes des consommateurs tiennent aujourd’hui en un seul mot : TRANSPARENCE. Ce que le consommateur accepteCe que le consommateur rejetteLes avatars clairement affichés comme virtuels (ex: @imma.gram).Les faux profils qui tentent de se faire passer pour de vrais humains.La créativité visuelle et les collaborations artistiques/futuristes.Les conseils santé, bien-être ou cosmétiques basés sur de faux tests.La labellisation obligatoire (les badges “Généré par l’IA”).Le flou artistique et les mentions cachées en tout petit dans la bio. Vers une obligation de transparence La fête est finie pour les clones clandestins. Face à la gronde des utilisateurs et des associations de consommateurs, les plateformes commencent à sévir. Aux États-Unis, la Federal Trade Commission (FTC) prépare des sanctions sévères contre les marques utilisant de faux témoignages clients synthétiques. En Europe, l’entrée en vigueur des volets stricts de l’AI Act oblige désormais la labellisation claire du contenu généré par ordinateur. La transparence n’est plus seulement une valeur éthique, elle devient la condition sine qua non pour que le marketing d’influence ne s’effondre pas sous le poids de ses propres mensonges. The post La chute des faux influenceurs 100% IA first appeared on XY Magazine.
Eyes-open meditation can sound like the worst idea if you're used to practice as a private escape. Then Susan Piver walks us through why keeping the eyes open may be the most direct path to mindfulness in real life, because you don't have to “come back” when the sit is over. We talk about the simple mechanics of resting the gaze, why distraction and tired eyes are normal at first, and how the nervous system settles when we stop trying to force focus. From there, the conversation turns to what meditation is really for. We're not training to be impressive meditators. We're training to be more awake, more patient, and less ruled by triggers when life gets loud. Susan shares a teacher's perspective on why the benefits often don't appear during practice, how expanded heart shows up on its own, and why “attention is the most basic form of love” is more than a nice quote, it's a map for how mindfulness practice changes relationships. We also zoom out to the stress of the present moment on planet Earth, using Tibetan Buddhist “six realms” imagery to describe conflict, power grabs, and the exhausted feeling of fighting battles with the wrong tools. The takeaway is grounding and practical: strengthen the human realm by teaching people to work with projection, story, and reactivity, and keep your classes clean, inclusive, simple, and honest.

L-influwenza tat-tjur u l-għasafar H5N1 waslet l-Awstralja b'aktar każijiet irrappurtati f'diversi stati. Imma l-awtoritjiet tas-saħħa jgħidu li l-periklu ta' pandemija fost in-nies jibqa' baxx. Il-Kap tal-Programm ta' Bijosigurtà tal-Istitut Kirby fl-Università ta' New South Wales, il-Professur Raina McIntyre, tgħid li filwaqt li l-Awstralja hija ppreparata sew għal imxija, l-għasafar u t-tjur fis-selvaġġ huma diffiċli biex tikkontrollahom milli jxerrdu l-virus.
“Namaste” might be the most repeated word in modern yoga, and also one of the least lived. Sean Fargo sits down with professor and longtime yoga and meditation teacher Jeremy David Engles to unpack what namaste actually means, how it traveled into Western yoga culture, and why the real practice starts after we roll up the mat. Visit Jeremy's website: https://jeremydavidengels.com/Buy Jeremy's book: Living NamasteJeremy breaks the word down simply and precisely: “I bow to you,” an everyday greeting that becomes transformative when we treat it as an ethic of respect, humility, and seeing the divine in one another.From there, we get practical about mindfulness. Jeremy shares how he thinks about “divinity” without getting lost in labels: as the human capacity for loving awareness, for pausing before reacting, and for choosing wisdom over conditioning. We walk through shamatha and vipassana using a memorable snow-globe metaphor, then move into Thich Nhat Hanh's teaching on interbeing. When you see that a table contains sunlight, rain, trees, labor, and time, it becomes easier to see that a person does too, and that independence is always interdependence.The conversation widens into community and “mindful democracy,” including why practice can stall when we do it alone, how social media can thin our real connections, and why gratitude is more than a feel-good habit. Jeremy defines gratitude as thanksgiving rather than indebtedness, and how a simple gratitude walk can train us to find shared values even across political divides. We close with “no mud, no lotus,” and a grounded form of hope that comes from growing together.If this resonates, subscribe, share the episode with a friend, and leave a review so more people can bring mindfulness, yoga, and community care into daily life.BECOME A CERTIFIED MINDFULNESS MEDITATION TEACHER Teach mindfulness with confidence and skill — without self-doubt, fear of judgment, or imposter syndrome.

We talk with Dr John Demartini about using better questions to balance perception, dissolve emotional polarisation, and practise mindfulness as full awareness rather than escape. We connect values, fair exchange, and purposeful action to practical outcomes like less burnout, fewer intrusive thoughts, and more intrinsic motivation. Visit his website: https://drdemartini.com/• the DeMartini Method as a structured set of cognitive questions to reveal hidden information • highest values as the source of intrinsic drive and consistent follow through • the cost of living by “shoulds” and internalised authority • service plus reward as sustainable fair exchange in work and relationships • seven daily questions to build momentum and reduce fantasy expectations • mindfulness defined as seeing both sides at once and ending seeking and avoiding loops • a meditation process for turning judgments into self awareness and gratitude • objective indicators that reveal values through space, time, energy, money, and order • burnout and shame as signals of misalignment and one sided expectations Please check out drdemartini.com.

Your phone is not just a gadget. It is a gateway into an economy built to capture attention, shape behavior, and keep you coming back. We bring on Jay Vidyarthi, mindfulness teacher, UX designer, technologist, and founder of Still Ape, to talk about the real world collision between contemplative practice and the modern attention economy. We start with a short, grounding practice of “doing nothing,” then zoom out to the strange fact that even this conversation is carried by microphones, data packets, and screens.Jay shares what it feels like to grow up loving video games and early internet creativity while also longing for silence, retreats, and depth. That tension shows up everywhere: tech culture can dismiss meditation, and mindfulness culture can quietly shame technology. We name the cost of that split, especially the guilt, shame, and fear that can creep into how we talk about screen time, social media, and even our kids' digital lives. Jay offers a more honest frame: you do not have to abandon technology to be mindful, but you do need a healthier relationship with your attention.From there, we dig into the incentives behind the systems, including how AI may be pushing us from an attention economy into an “attachment economy,” where people form bonds with bots and start confiding in them. Jay argues that mindfulness is becoming subversive, not because it is trendy, but because choosing where to place attention runs against powerful forces. He calls the response “attention activism,” a middle way that avoids both naive techno-optimism and tech doom, and invites teachers, designers, and everyday users to show up online with wisdom.If you care about mindfulness, digital wellness, humane technology, or building tech that supports human flourishing, this conversation will give you language and direction.

So we are back in Hawkins, and California and Russia… geez! Hopper is alive! this reveal is meh… and how did he survive the lightening bolts of disintegration?Umm… he fell down? Max wakes up from a nightmare into a daymare when she sees the head cheerleader has been pretzeled and de-eyed. Yikes. A plane lands in California, and two teenagers wait on theguy they are both obsessed with and he is the dorkiest person on earth and El is like “FROM”? Mike, from? And Will is like, hug me? No, okay I'll just go kms then I guessAnd the talking bong is like, your cheap ass mom got you theknock off clothes, and Mike is like what is that smell? and Jonathon is like pass the dutchie over here is my best friend because I literally don't remember the person I was six months agoMike is like oh cool, because nothing phases him in that hat,it's radioactive and bad vibes nor critical thoughts can penetrate it. El lies and lies some more and Will looks like Chrissyat the end of the last episode because of how many times he rolls his eyes at his lying sister (aww!) Also… Murray is there. Robin and Steve want to merge and form a datable person named Reve… Lucas is puking and we are led to believe that he's hungoverbut remember Chrissy threw up in the last episode too. I think that's just what happens when you spend more than one hour with Jason. Max goes to Dustin and is like “Eddie is Ted Bundy” andDustin is like “No way!” and she's like “Maybe?” and he's like “You think?” and she's like “No, I'm not really sure what my stance is supposed to be, but we have to get this plot moving” Murray tells Joyce that her boyfriend has been fried like somuch toast and we can all see that she just got botox. And she's like I disagree with one of those things, but I'm offended by both But they are both wrong because Hopper is an elephant and an elephant doesn't snitch (isn't that the quote?)… unlike his daughter who apparently is a snitch because she dared to get bullied in front of a teacher and the whole town including adults that work at the skating rink bully her like CarrieThe cops show up to tell Jason his hair should not look likethat after sleeping on the floor of an abandoned burger place and he starts singing “I'm just Ken” and my girlfriend was just a mannequin in my life but I'm going to go scream in the woods and then he's like "I'm going to be the most normal about this that anyone has ever been about anything. So where do you guys think I could get some tar and feathers?” Jonathon says “I'm emo” and his talking bong is like “pfftweed” enough said. Joyce calls Russia and is like “Can you help me get myboyfriend back?” and tippi hedren is like this is the wrong phone booth and she's like Murray, reroute. Hopper is in prison for letting the Duffer Brothers do whatthey did to me at the end of season 5 Jason transforms from being Kenough into being Tyler Durden Nancy talks to Uncle wayne and he thinks Freddie Kruegerkilled Chrissy in the dreamworld and honestly he's not that far off. Fred follows the sound of a clock into the forest as you do Will is like “Mike you're a bad friend” and Mike is like “Notjust friend… best friend” wink Angela who we thought couldn't get worse is like “Heyjane isn't it hilarious that your dad is dead” and Jane is like I'm Eleven so stfu and the thwop heard round the world happens as a roller skate finds it's true place in the skull of “this bitch” FAFO Angela Finding a lead, the family video gang goes to thehouse of a mythical drug dealer… as one does… and Steve is like “Imma poke this boat” and dustin is like “bad idea” and steve is like “Why” and the boat stands up and tries to kill him but actually it's Kas the bloody handed… I mean Eddieand he gives us a tearful account of why he's innocentFred gets the Chrissy treatment as Eddie describes it and Venca LIVES! In an attic? Okay my guy, you need a towel or something to dry off, the squelching is getting out of hand.

You want things to feel easier than they do right now.So if you've been telling yourself you're scattered, inconsistent, or “bad at follow-through,” pause for a moment.In this episode, we unpack why so many capable, driven women feel frozen, overwhelmed, and exhausted before they even start and why “trying harder” often makes things worse.In this episode, we cover:– Why motivation isn't the real problem for most women anymore– How chronic information intake quietly overwhelms the nervous system– The hidden mental cost of too many options, rules, and opinions– Why constant research and restarting kills momentum– How “trying harder” increases resistance instead of results– The relief that comes from subtracting instead of addingIf you've ever felt:“I know what to do, I just can't seem to do it.”“I feel overwhelmed before I even start.”“I keep consuming information but not executing.”“I'm frustrated with myself for not being consistent.”This episode is for you.Because what looks like laziness is often cognitive overload.What feels like lack of discipline is often a system that's overstimulated and exhausted.And clarity doesn't come from adding more.It comes from creating space.If you felt calmer just hearing this, that's not an accident.Simplicity is part of the solution.This is the exact lens I bring into my coaching work so not more effort or pressure, but fewer things competing for your attention so follow-through can emerge naturally.If this episode resonated, consider sharing it with a friend who's been hard on herself lately.And if you want to hear more conversations like this, don't forget to like, subscribe, and let me know what you want covered next. Thank you for being here.Stay Relentless.

Jack and Steven are back to wish you guys a Happy Holidays!

After a year or so of releasing individual dance-pop candies, Austin’s Jane Leo released their sophomore album Creature of Destruction in September. One of the tracks on the album is “Goldmine,” a slightly more subdued song from the art-pop duo, but still dripping with energy and that funky “Imma dance here in my own little […] The post Jane Leo: “Goldmine” [Live In Studio 1A] appeared first on KUT & KUTX Studios -- Podcasts.
Tuvalu es el velero en el que Hans e Imma dieron la vuelta al mundo durante doce anos. Navegar para ellos supuso abrirse a una nueva vida rodeados de la inmensidad del oceano, abiertos y atentos a que pudiera ocurrir cualquier cosa, desde un gran temporal, hasta la calma chicha. Una experiencia mistica que les ha ayudado a conocerse mejor interiormente y tambien como pareja. Durante todo su aventura vivieron el presente y se dieron cuenta que el mayor lujo de todos es tener tiempo.

I'm like "Just the water." There you go "Just the water." But anyhow I say all that to say the blue plate special of the day at McBee's whether you're eating healthy or not they got you covered 'cause you can do the chicken breast but today's Thursday the special is red sauce spaghetti and it is oh so good if you like spaghetti I'm not even a red sauce spaghetti fan I like alfredos- Really Okay and the chicken spaghettis and stuff But I will eat it here and there Like if somebody cooks it I'm not pushing it away But I did I wanted to try everything on the menu Yeah So I could honestly give you my my opinion on it Their red sauce spaghetti's great but if that's not your thing they do have um hamburger steak which is works great for keto They have chicken breast or country fried steak And of course the vegetables okra and stewed tomatoes black-eyed peas turnip greens rice and gravy side salad lima beans green beans mashed potatoes mac and cheese fried okra or fries So you know if you been doing this long enough you know you can create you a carb less plate lunch right there from McBee's And uh I I went a little half and half yesterday I did get the fried okra 'cause they have in my opinion the best fried okra in town It's hard to pass fried okra man It it it really is Let's uh let's take a call real quick before we jump into this conversation on the Mazda Jackson phone line Hey good morning you're on the air Good morning Clay Uh I was headed toward I-220 yesterday going to Industrial Drive take my son some lunch I live in Rankin County of course But on the way up there that going there is nothing but a junk It's trash and I was thinking since the fair was gonna be in town everybody was gonna clean up everything mattresses on the highway Uh it was just it was just unbelievable And where was that at 20 westbound going to I-220- Oh oh to Industrial Drive Oh oh yeah It was terrible Yeah it it's bad C- like of course I come through there every day and I'm just wildly disappointed I will say that at least up through the Ellis Avenue area there they do have the street lights working again Uh so kudos to MDOT for that Okay Okay but everything else it it was just terrible the fair will be here today and they would have everything cleaned up but no Ah it's unfortunate- So but hey what you know if you don't expect anything you won't be disappointed when you don't get it.That is true And I didn't expect nothing else from out of Highlands County But thank you Have a great day Enjoy the show Bye You Thanks I love- Look- I love my callers Ca- can I say this though I actually do think that Mayor John Horn's doing a good job so far I do too Yeah I mean look are are there things that people wish would happen faster Yeah But if you look at sort of the level of activity you know just getting out and filling potholes and paving streets and the stuff that's the basic blocking and tackling I think they're looking for the right police chief obviously right now Um you gotta give them a little credit compared to where we were were you know just- Oh sure a few months ago Well you know it's like I said for the the year leading up to the election whoever wins if they'll just come in and quit doing all the wrong things right they'll they're gonna look really smart Just just letting you know like a like letting a a s- a let- letting a a wound heal on your arm a scab If we just quit picking at it it'll heal Uh the last mayor and the administration in general just kept picking at scabs And for the analogy here it's like uh traditionally you know for 100 years for government to run correctly you just take a right take a right take a right Uh at every opportunity to take a traditional right chalk away to the left And if you would just get back to taking the rights just doing the right thing period You don't have to be the smartest guy in the room but it's gotten so bad if you'll just do that again you're gonna look great And I think John's getting back to just do it just let's just quit trying to reinven- vent the wheel and just let it go round and round and some of this will autocorrect Yeah and look John's smart Um I think he's surrounding himself with some smart people I mean we'll see how it plays out It's earl- it's too early to say that it's going to be a a raving success But comparatively already they're doing things and I think have kind of built the right kind of team Um and then you know you look at the level of cooperation that I think you're going to get from the legislature from the governor um they all like him I mean he had a history of working across the aisle and being easy to talk to and easy to work with And I think people are gonna want to help um you know as we come up into this next session And so I think Jackson's like if if I I know part of of your brand has been like hey Jackson's not where it needs to be and that's true I think Jackson has an opportunity right now to right some wrongs Yeah 100% Look I said it straight up Now there's gonna be some things I talk about 'cause this this is my brand this is my show I mean I'm going to talk about Jackson crime and some of the things I see that are just- Sure out of control But like just the culture rot more so But I did say I'm I'm gonna give it a year bef- unless there's something just egregious I'm gonna give John a year to find the bathrooms so to say before I start really peeling back and you know being nitpicky 'Cause I I think that there's gonna be a lot there's a lot to un- to un-F around here and I'm gonna give him an opportunity to get that get his people in place let them figure out where the bathrooms are at And I'll be honest there the these people I think the expectation is you gotta come in and start working from day one and you're seeing that You mentioned it with the potholes And so these people they're hiring they seem to be hitting the ground running and that's uh wildly impressive uh based on the last 7 or 8 years And look I I would say this too is like uh it's possible to do both things to recognize that progress is being made in a way that is at least somewhat encouraging and simultaneously not to hide from the fact that there's some significant challenges in Jackson that are gonna be hard for anybody to solve for Uh no no doubt No doubt Because I I look I'm exci- I'm optimistic for the first time instead of pessimistic that some things are gonna get done and that we're gonna start enforcing some laws around here And little stuff like code ordinance and whatnot are gonna be big things And not just Quit just going after businesses to go after How about start going after people for the broke down cars in their yard All this little stuff You know get back to the quality of life things Get back to people holding the people accountable for not cutting their grass holding businesses accountable uh illegal signage I mean let's get back to enforcing what's on the books Code ordinances to me is just like the number one thing that the last administration just said "Nah We're we're not gonna bully the citizens." Yeah I mean I think this is true not just in Jackson but everywhere but having pride in where you live is a pretty good indicator of how of of the quality of life that you're gonna have Well you know look Russ one of the things for me that really grinded my gears and I did not intend to get on this but we're here now uh there's a crew of guys and God bless them and I don't talk about them much but it's the guys they're all from like Rankin and Madison County and they've been cleaning the interstates and all that It's Casey Bridges and some other guys and they're doing they're doing great great work Uh but uh there's a part of me that wishes they didn't do it and this is just selfish I get it I should be glad they're doing it and I should I should give them their roses right But they're they're doing it for a bunch of people who really don't appreciate it overwhelmingly They the second they cleaned up the interstate pressure wash it all their stuff these people and some of the comments I've seen online from people is "Y'all supposed to be doing it Y'all should be doing it We shouldn't be having to Y'all all left Jackson The least you can do is come back and clean it." I'm like how about thank you How about that H- how about y'all clean your own city Or how about I don't know the people that we pay taxes to clean and pressure wash the interstates and bridges and everything else how about they do You know Like the citizenry shouldn't have to be uh doing Yeah look and I think there's I think there's a danger a- and I came up in churches I came up doing mission work um and part of the danger that I saw in church mission work is like you would take a group of youth to some city right in the United States presumably with the thought that you were gonna share the gospel of Christ but really it was a work trip And you'd go into a neighborhood and you'd clean up trash or you'd paint houses um and and you were helping to beautify where people lived and at some level it reinforces bad behavior right Because in an ideal world some random person doesn't come and clean Russ's yard- Right 'cause Russ is trashy Russ gets out and cleans his yard because he cares enough about where he lives whether it's an 800 square foot or 8,000 square foot house right He cares enough about where he lives that he's gonna take care of his own property And if everybody does that communities get a lot safer they get a lot closer to each other um and so at some level it's reinforcing um bad behavior if somebody else comes and does it for you when it's something that you're capable of doing yourself and should be motivated to do Yeah How about don't throw trash out your car when you're driving down the interstate That's a good start How about don't litter so people don't have to do this Yeah I mean these are real simple things You know we're we're rewarding bad behavior Well how about y'all come pressure wash my driveway cut my yard I'm doing I'm doing good You know what I'm saying And look there are there are exceptions to this right If you have if you have an 85-year-old live-in widow who can't get out and cut the grass then I think it's awesome that somebody will go and volunteer to cut her grass Amen And that should happen right And so that's that's a different scenario Like I would rather see that energy put in that direction you know find out the little who the little old ladies are that need the help the little old men whatever Let's And I'm not saying people aren't helping them but I'd rather see that than um cleaning up the interstates and all that stuff Again I think they're d- I don't want to diminish what they're doing I think it's great But I feel like you're enabling the people who are littering and doing this I don't know I'm just wildly conflicted I think it enables bad behavior as y- as kind of it rewards bad behavior as you said Well and look I mean you see this internationally and I think even progressives now recognize some of the damage that was done globally in what was a well-intentioned thing like "Hey we're gonna go feed the world," right "There are hungry people we're gonna go feed the world." Or uh "There are places where there's not indoor plumbing or running water" or whatever we're gonna go fix that We did it for people and never taught people th- that skillset in a way that even today there's reliance there And so I think the challenge has always been like how do you be tenderhearted and compassionate the way that I would argue the Bible requires you to be while simultaneously recognizing that sometimes being tenderhearted and compassionate is forcing people to get into uncomfortable situations to figure it out for themselves Yeah Uh what I feel like is kinda done too and this is just from me directly here is it's raised the price of tea in China a bit 'cause now when I get to arguing about people and the things that they've done to Jackson "Well why ain't you out there like them other guys cleaning up the interstate?" 'Cause I'm not gonna clean up your mess I'm not your mama is why God bless them that they feel moved to do that and that's their ministry My ministry is putting my boot up your ass and and telling you that you've screwed up That's my ministry I mean look people were mad at MrBeast was it about a year ago 'Cause he was going into parts of Africa that didn't have wells And was digging wells And I mean I even again even really progressive voices were saying this is counterproductive because really what needs to happen in those settings is like people have the resources and institutional knowledge to do that for themselves 'cause that's sustainable long term Yeah And those wells were already dried up and no good and been robbed and pillaged and everything else from my understanding is It was all just a big waste and look at- Although I I will say that that guy tries to do a lot of good He really does He does He does I'm not hating on him Uh he he does try to do a lot of good but he gets paid very well for the good deeds he does That's true too You know with content monetization But hey I'm not a hater on that at all Thank y'all for the uh money I made the last couple months on uh my content All right Let's take a break When we come back we're actually gonna jump into the TPUSA versus Clinton uh debacle that's going on out there Don't go anywhere here on The Clay Edwards Show 1039 WYAB This is Central Mississippi's stimulating talk 1039 WYAB Pocahontas Jackson.It's time to fall into savings at Mazda of Jackson With ball games road trips and all the busyness don't miss a thing with 2.9% financing for 36 months on a new 2025 Mazda CX-5 Or get 2.9% financing for 63 months on the 2025 CX-90 One-year maintenance is included on your new vehicle purchase And take advantage of the pre-tariff inventory that's almost gone Shop online at mazdaofjackson.com or visit Mazda of Jackson I-55 Frontage Road in Jackson Looking for the ultimate reset for your body and skin At Core Wellness and Recovery you'll find next-level services like cryotherapy red light therapy infrared sauna body sculpting and advanced facials Whether you want to boost performance recover faster or just feel your best Core Wellness and Recovery delivers real results with 0 downtime From muscle relief to radiant skin this is self-care redefined Come experience the future of wellness Core Wellness and Recovery just off Highland Colony in Ridgeland Book now at corewellnessandrecovery.com Hey guys This is KC Ellis with LS Autoplex located on Highway 471N Brandon LS Autoplex known as Little Truck City is your old-school mom-and-pop-style dealership that's family-owned and operated We specialize in 4wheel drive trucks but don't worry we have cars and SUVs too Looking to sell your vehicle Bring it by LS Autoplex where we pay fair market value and we cut you a check on the spot Need your vehicle serviced or repaired We can handle that too Shop us online or set your appointment at lsautoplex.com That's lsautoplex.com Tri-County Tree Service the Jackson Metro's premier company to handle all of your tree service needs Russ Bourland and his team specialize in large tree low-impact removal Tri-County Tree Service has the right equipment to safely handle the most technical trim jobs or tree removals Storm damage can happen year-round so let them clean it up and they'll deal with your insurance claim Tri-County Tree Service By phone at 601-TREE-GUY or online at tricotreeservice.com That's tricotreeservice.com Craving something extraordinary in Jackson Manship Restaurant is where your taste buds hit the jackpot Join us for happy hour every day from 3:00 to 6:00 PM where your wallet will thank you and your stomach will sing Indulge in half-priced woodfire pizzas because why pay full price for half the fun And for just $5 dive into our private barrel bourbon picks That's right luxury on a budget Plus beat the heat with our frozen drink specials a tropical escape without the travel expenses Make your way to the Manship where happy hour isn't just a time it's an experience Are you a wine enthusiast Are you looking for the perfect bottle to elevate your next dinner The ultimate destination for wine lovers is 042 Wine & Spirits on West Government Street in Brandon The locally owned the locally operated 042 Wine offers something for everyone from local favorites to rare vintage wines 042 Wine & Spirits can help you find your next favorite wine The friendly and knowledgeable folks at 042 Wine & Spirits will help you find the perfect bottle for every occasion 042 Wine & Spirits located on West Government Street in Brandon .........

Um in a country that has been built off of the idea that the free exchange of ideas is sort of bedrock to who we are as a people part of what makes us ex- exceptional And so in that moment I think there was a vulnerability You mentioned 9/11 Obviously 9/11 involved 3,000 people dying it involved wars after the fact so a different scale but a similar type of vulnerability where you go "Oh my gosh like things like this can happen." To everyday people To everyday people Yeah Um and there was also this poignant moment in my brain of he's on a college campus and if you think about the whole point of college it really should be a marketplace of ideas where you test what ideas work and what ideas don't Iron sharpens iron kind of thing And so that's the that is the environment that should be most suitable to real exploration and debate of tough issues Um and so I think it was just sort of that juxtaposition of like here's a normal guy who got killed for his ideas and thoughts on a college campus um and it created a sense of real vulnerability I think it also woke up a lot of people who said like "Hey look this is not just a words versus words thing." Like we're at a moment societally where people are so angry at each other and see each other so much as their enemy that stuff like this can happen Yeah yeah That's a great that's a great explanation of it It it was just the the vulnerability and it really made me take a a step back and I I know that my friends and family all and and audience all mean well when they're like "Hey man you really need to keep your head on a swivel." And and so on and so forth you know with all the stuff that you deal with and do and say and everything else Uh and it did it made it real You make people mad Yeah Yeah Apparently So I'm very polarizing they say Uh but it it just ki- it blows my mind I won't say it kills me figuratively that that your words can anger somebody so bad that they want to kill you Like to me I'm just talking about thugs and criminals and people who have actually killed people and But it's never them that I'm really worried about It's people who feel like they had to defend them or that they get offended by the blast radius of me talking about them It's like I we have to kill this guy I w- "Oh so why does Clay keep talking about uh Black violence and Black on Black crime I wish he would shut up Oh you know what I'm gonna commit a crime I'm gonna be violent and threaten him." Like well you're mad You're gonna do the thing that you're mad that I'm talking about Well and look you know- It it blows my mind And it ain't just them I get I get I get death threats from from White people too Sure And and so what I would say is I mean like we we grew up with this adage "Sticks and stones may break my bones but words may will won't ever hurt me." There's some truth to that but uh there's also there there's a degree of falsehood to that because we're emotional people right And things do hurt people's feelings or get people angry or or fearful Um but we bought into for a little while this idea and it really started on the the left side of the spectrum in c- on college campuses that words are violence And if you allow yourself to believe that the things that Clay says and you say some stuff I disagree with Sure Um I say some stuff you disagree with right But like if you allow yourself to buy into this idea that the words that Clay says are violence then you become justified in doing violence But they also tell us that silence is violence So words are violence and silence is violence if you're if you're not You ca- you it's it's not just You can't just be against racism you have to be a outspoken anti-racist as well So if you don't agree with them publicly if you're not a outspoken ally you might as well be an enemy and that is dangerous as well Yeah I look I just think we've gotta we've gotta get to the point again where we recognize that violence is violence Like if I walk up to you and punch you in the face you have the ability to punch me back But if I walk up to you and tell you "You're a colossal dumbass," your response should be "Well I don't like you either," or whatever Yeah But you don't you don't You're not justified in in punching me in the face So I agree And so like just getting to the point where we're emotionally mature enough to recognize there are gonna be people who say things that we absolutely disagree with And we can either debate those people or we can roll our eyes and move on I mean I think that every time I'm on Facebook I'm like "Why are these random people starting fights with people you don't even know?" Right Like you are wasting your time Roll your eyes and move on Yeah I got into a Jeremy England commented something yesterday made a post yesterday about uh people P- people starting off they wanna debate you but they insult you first Like "You effing idiot why don't you debate me?" Or "You're a douchebag why don't you debate me?" Well you've already crossed into the assaults Sure Why would Why would I debate you I dealt with the same thing uh earlier this week with some little 300 followers uh sending me all kind of nasty messages trying to get me to debate him Basically he wants me to platform him Sure You know I'm like I'm just There's no- You're smart enough to know that right Yeah Yeah Like why why would I do that Sure But even if I were to entertain it the way you started the conversation off with the insults I have Why would I want to do that for you Like to introduce you to my quarter million followers uh would be the best thing that ever happened to you if you're if you're so good if your opinions are so strong you could take advantage of that like like I've done in the past But now because you've insulted me to start the conversation I'm not gonna do that We gotta take a break We'll be right back with Russ Lateno here on WYAB Actually we're going to carry the conversation on in the uh live chat during the break Y'all don't go nowhere You gotta take the headphones off for this Okay Yeah during the breaks it it sends the radio signal whatever the commercials through the headphones Okay But uh If we But we're still alive we can talk Uh I like this conversation and I don't wanna just stop it 'cause we're gonna have like a weird run of commercials here but it it is It's like if you wanna debate I'll I will debate you I don't really like the debating thing anyway Let's just talk Like you and I met up and we talked about the school choice stuff Yeah We're on the opposite sides of the same On some of And I came out of that conversation I didn't really change my mind but I appreciated the fact that we had a logical conversation and I was a- and you were interested in why I felt the way I felt And I think that's always the best way to If you're ever gonna get somebody to change their mind is to listen to how they feel about it be respectful about that and then explain why you feel the way you do put your side out there and let the uh marketplace of ideas win the day Yeah no I think that's right I mean I think There's there's this thing called uh sunk cost fallacy in economics which is like once somebody believes something or once they've invested in something It happens in in actual trading like marketplace where it's like "Hey I've invested in this stock and it's lost 50% of its value," and instead of getting out of it you're waiting for it to somehow redeem itself And I think the problem with modern debate is too many people go into it with a thought process that says "Under no circumstances am I ever gonna change my mind." And there's gotta be a willingness 1 to hear To your point hear what somebody else has to say and consider the possibility that they might be right and you might be wrong um if you're gonna have any kind of movement And I think that used to happen at a better in a better way before social media But social media has Like this conversation we're having obviously I guess on YouTube but um social media has made it such that you have an audience now So the stakes for changing your mind have gone up It's become harder to change your mind because that's seen as a pride hit or an ego hit Yeah Um right Versus if you're just having a one-on-one conversation you might go "Hey I hadn't thought of that that way." Yeah Well even If you look like you agree with the other person you lost Yeah Yeah Like you've you've lost some reputation Yeah You've lost part of your brand Um and I would say like even like the school choice conversation that we had Yeah like we disagreed on the idea of public to public um school choice like where a kid gets to leave one public school and go to another Um but we didn't disagree on the idea of like- Mm-hmm universal What's called Universal ESAs right Where like a portion of the money that students already are getting spent on by the state that would allow them to go to a private school Like I think we agreed on that part right We agreed with that So And that and that's what you You weren't aware that I did agree with you on that And we kind of came out of that It's like really it's just like if there's 2 3 thirds here there's just one third of this thing I don't agree with Yeah And so like but being able to have that conversation in a non-combative way it was like oh wait there actually is common ground Mm-hmm We just disagree on this one thing over here Well then there's an opportunity for us to get something done Yeah Well you know at the end of the day I'm a negotiator You know Yeah I'm a dealsman And uh- Well and that's the nature of that's the nature of life It's also the nature of of legislation is like you have to have trade-offs No no a- a- absolutely circling back to the the Jeremy England thing real quick So I just commented and I told the little the little story about this guy trying to argue with me I was like he started off with an insult Why would I you know grant him the ability to come on and you know just platform this guy Why would I make him famous You know what I mean So to say Not that I have not that my platform's that big but long story short And he never fails A coup- a couple people in the comments "Oh well Clay you don't You're scared to debate people You just like to argue with people." And you know what was funny is I've never been rude to a guest on this show ever Even people I've disagreed with Uh frankly it's hard to get people to come on here that disagree with me Uh but I've always been respectful I'm I I can't even think of a time that I've shouted anybody down Yeah Uh at all Maybe argue with some callers here and there that call very aggressively So it's like so it's kind of like this myth of because Clay is an outspoken conservative he must also be scared of debate uh because he doesn't interview Democrats Well f- bro where are these Democrats at that want to come on and actually debate You know so to say Well and at at some level it's like and you mentioned that you don't even like the word- Like straw man arguments that are put- Well you don't even like the word debate right And it's like well if the point of the conversation is a good faith exchange of ideas where people are open to having their minds changed those are conversations worth having If the point of the conversation is to get famous by making you look stupid- Yeah I mean no- nobody's ever had their mind changed by being made to feel stupid No Never Never Um they might give up They might well but they're at the end of the day they're angry about it Um and they're they're even more dug in to than where they started right And so yeah I mean again there's some there's some biblical truth here which is like you catch more flies with honey than with vinegar And if you want to have constructive conversations the best way to do that is not by assuming the other person is stupid but by trying to understand why they believe what they believe That's why Shawn and I have had such a good friendship that was supposed to kind of start off as a bit of a debate show We realized that we agreed on so much stuff for the most part And we also agreed that even when we get our angriest that we're gonna be adults Yeah And not get into a shouting match And in involving Shawn you know for those couple years on the show uh before they went off and did their own thing uh was really really good for me learning you know actually finally having somebody sitting across from me that we did disagree on some stuff And learning that for the most part we agreed on like real core principle things It's just kinda like these ancillary things that we disagree on Uh that was a very healthy uh growing point for me to be able to say okay maybe I'm not as bedrock about some of these things as I thought I was And then there are some things that it made me realize that I'm even more adamant about Well and there's something different when you're sitting down across from somebody versus preaching at them on the internet and you don't have to see them or meet them or whatnot right Like and you see that in other areas of life So like as an example the conversation around immigration and that's a complex conversation and I know your audience probably leans one direction pretty heavily But I would look at it and say okay a lot of people talk about mass deportation as an example of Mexican and South American immigrants But then you say well what about the fellow that serves your lunch when you go to this restaurant Or what about the the people that come and cut your grass or the- You start personalizing it And then you're like oh well I know so-and-so Yeah Right And then it becomes a lot harder to paint with such a broad brush I think that's true in the context of like republicans democrats liberals and conservatives too is like at some level if you just sit down with somebody who's like hardcore on the other side of you and you start talking about the things that they want out of life they want their kids to have better jobs than what they had right They want a house they want a car they want a safe community Like there are all these things that everybody wants like that everybody kind of views as like this is a measure of a good life And the real the real debate or the real sort of difference is how do we get there Yeah Um and like if you start from that vantage point where you don't assume that the other person is evil but they just have a different view on the way to get somewhere I think there's opportunity No I I agree and I talk about this a lot I'll come on here and I kind of paint with a broad brush but I do tell people "Look there's obviously you know nuance here." There's there's special exception I come in here and talk about democrats are evil but one of my best friends is a democrat You know Sure And Shawn and and and a buddy of mine Marvell I mean I could 2 off the top of my head 2 of my closest friends are are are democrats and think I'm wrong about a lot of stuff And that's fine Well you know we either talk about those things or we don't We talk about normal stuff Like we don't I don't ride in a car with my democrat friends and talk about politics the whole time you know We actually both like football Yeah Like there's real life stuff too that sometimes you kind of get lost in the arguing about policy and politics and culture war stuff that you forget that there's actually real life stuff that we enjoy as well And if you- Well I mean- find that common ground it makes life a lot easier A- and I don't mean to be overreligious on on your program but at some level it's like hey the Bible says that we were all created in the image of God That means democrats were created in the image of God too right The Bible says that we've all sinned and fallen short of the glory of God That means that republicans have sinned too right And so like at some level recognizing that if you have that sort of scriptural worldview it means no matter whether you disagree on a question of like immigration or whatever it is that like that other person was created in the image of God and like you they suffer with sin.Um and if you have that kind of humility going into it I think it's a lot easier to to relate to people Yeah you know I use this analogy a lot um Christians are very hardcore about the the they love to say "Gay being gay is against the Bible it's that's against the Lord's words." I'm like "Well so is having sex before you get married." Y- uh absolutely And it was like so I that's why I'm never like I don't get on the the the gay religious thing I don't that's that's their sin let them worry about that I have my own sin and I'd be a hypocrite if I sat there and talked about uh who they have sex with It's no different than who I have sex with when I'm doing it outside of marriage My sin is just as equal as as that Uh my only problem with the gay stuff is like it's the LGBTQ agenda as I you know as I refer to it as You know the the the pride parades with all the near pornographic stuff in front of children and d- drag queen story time No that's that's a whole separate thing from just your everyday run of the mill gay people And like I don't think they're separate Unfortunately they get all dropped under this big umbrella and if you have a problem with this well you must also have a problem with the 2 gay guys No I don't at all 'cause again their sin is no different than my sin Yeah I mean look I I would look at it and say at some level what happens is that the the natural human tendency is to focus on sins that you don't struggle with right So if you're heterosexual it's easy enough to talk about the sin of homosexuality because it's not something that you ever struggle with but if you wanna get uncomfortable you know talk about uh whether or not Russ is overweight right Yeah Because then that's the sin of gluttony Mm-hmm Um or the 400 pound Baptist pastor pastor who clearly is living an unrepentant life when it comes to their their dietary habits Um again the sin of gluttony and so like there's a very natural tendency to to isolate those sins that we don't personally struggle with and to ignore the things that we personally struggle with Heterosexual lust is a great example of that too Yeah And so I I don't think as as a Christian I don't think you should uh ignore what the Bible says is sinful behavior but I do think that you should operate in a way where you don't ignore your own sin um certainly 'cause that it it is hypocritical It it is and that is the one thing when you do this for 2 hours a day you will find yourself contradicting yourself a lot and and so I've learned to avoid contradicting myself I just try to be an open book and say "Look I'm k- a complicated individual as we all are There's gonna be things that I I find abhorrent but then there's gonna be things that I do that you find abhorrent." You know I try to find the common ground and just admit yes I we can all be a bit hypocritical at times But if there's some obvious stuff I try to just b- be like "Look that's" I I try I people think I'm very judgey I'm really not I gotta let let people live but the the Overton window has moved over so much that if you just wanna be left alone or just let people live that makes you far one way or the other now because the Overton window has moved so far I don't l- yeah there the problem is that there are not a ton of people who still believe in sort of what I would call American pluralism which I think is actually one of our founding values is that people get to believe different stuff All right we're coming back from break Chicken spaghetti on Mondays beef tip Tuesday pork chop

for quite some time Yeah it always has been But uh it's the only legitimate pro-sport uh event in the state of Mississippi and it's right here in Jackson For all the negative things about Jackson this is one of the shining uh house on the hill you know beautiful moments that we have here in this city It's something we really should all wrap our arms around and get out and support if you want to keep it whether it's Jackson central Mississippi whatever there at the Country Club of Jackson And uh the first round starts today I'm going to be out there Saturday My buddy Fred Shanks my buddy

they- I'm trying to angle some tickets for the sponsorship party I I've been I've been working some angles that have not worked out so far But I would love to go to the sponsorship party Well we we can talk about it off air maybe Maybe so All right Well uh look so we got Russ Latino here Magnolia Tribune one of my favorite journalists in the state if not my personal favorite And Magnolia Tribune does just phenomenal work And Russ grabbed a hold of something like a dog on a bone the other day And I'm really glad he did because he brings a level of credibility and a level of scrutiny to to this topic that I think needs to be And he shines a light on it uh as one of the most influential journalists and policymakers in the state And it's the In the wake of Charlie death Charlie Kirk's death and that's why I wanted to really get Russ's opinion on that and kind of his thoughts on the whole thing before we dove into this These TPUSA chapters which is Turning Point USA for those that don't know Charlie Kirk's foundation that he founded And they Man they The growth has been stupendous since his death Thousands and thousands of new charters popping up And in these high schools where we really need to be trying to win the culture war uh just like colleges man We if we can get ahold of them at high schools they go to colleges you know kind of ready to fight the fight or knowing how to fight it And Clinton for some reason has decided that uh it's a no-go there So I've kind of laid the groundwork for you here man Tell us kind of what happened So let let me start by saying that um obviously what happened to Charlie Kirk was a tragedy a horrible tragedy I didn't always agree with him Um and I didn't always agree with TPUSA I did agree fundamentally with the idea that we should be having open debate on these issues um and that open debate is good And so-What happened was after his death to your point thousands and thousands of new chapters high school and college of TPUSA um started to form Um a couple of Saturdays ago so uh 2plus Saturdays ago um a teacher at Clinton High School sent out an email to a handful of students um and that email essentially said "Hey I know you're interested in this sort of stuff because you've talked to me in the past about wanting to start some kinda club that focuses on patriotism and sort of the exchange of ideas and debate Um what do you think about potentially doing a TPUSA chapter?" That email said explicitly this would have to be student-led Um you would have to come up with the names of other students who are interested in spearheading the effort to start this thing And there was a plan of sorts put together Some of these kids started sharing it with their friends they came back with names of people who wanted to be involved And essentially they planned to get together the following Tuesday September 16th to have a planning meeting with the teacher Well our sources say that that email got around to a wide group of people Um and one of the- the sets of hands that it ended up in was a set of parents who were very much opposed to the idea of there being a TPUSA chapter on Clinton's campus Um and that was communicated to school officials So what happens then is that on Monday September 15th the teacher that afternoon sends out an email to these students who are ready to meet the next day just saying "There will be no meeting tomorrow." Um the following day one of the students follows up and says "Well when are we gonna reschedule it?" 'Cause they're excited about doing this Um and she emails back and says "There won't be a rescheduling you need to go talk to the principal about this." Well the backstory of those few days and the way that we got ahold of this was that we got contacted by 2 sources that said "Hey look some students wanted to start this TPUSA chapter and they got shut down by the school administration." Um and we were told that there were 3 reasons given by the administration The first was that this was too political and "We don't do political clubs it's gonna be divisive." Um the second explanation which came later was "Well this was teacher-led and because it's teacher-led it violates a district policy." And then once students voiced "Hey no actually we want this," the third explanation that was given was "Hey it's too late in the year to start a new club." And so all of this unfolds- We're a month into school we're a month into school So all of this unfolds and you start to see And the only way we know this is 'cause we did public record requests on Clinton High School Um you start to see emails directly from students to the principal of Clinton High School Dr Brian Fordinberry saying "We want this." To the point that some of them are literally pressing him and saying "Tell me why we can't have this In writing please tell me why we are unable to have a Turning Point USA club." Um we get ahold of the story break it on uh social media And the response that we got from folks who live in Clinton was "Hey we called and talked to the principal and he said the reason they can't have it is 'cause they started it too late in the year." Well that night I start doing some research All right let's figure out is that true Is there a policy in place for this Read the entire Clinton Han- School handbook Nothing in there about when clubs can start Um read the entirety of the school district's policies Couldn't find anything So I wrote the principal and the- the school board attorney and just said "Hey look I've looked at all this stuff I can't find any policies that- that says that this can't be done this time of year." Um and we had posed a bunch of different questions public record requests whatnot Well they come back um the following day and release a statement that basically says "We didn't actually shut it down We just told them that it couldn't be teacher-led and that it couldn't be this year." Which is shutting it down Yeah Um and so anyway we- we've been able to get together all these public records It really looks from my vantage point like the 2 reasons they gave are pretense first of all students individually went to the principal and said "We want this club." ......... ......... ......... ......... ......... ......... ......... all of the documents ......... ......... ......... ......... ......... ......... ......... ......... ......... ......... ......... ......... ......... ......... ......... ......... ......... ......... ......... ......... ......... ......... ......... ......... ......... ......... ......... ......... ......... ......... ......... ......... ......... ......... ......... ......... ......... ......... ......... ......... ......... since 2019 The Tigers are playing well against Alabama this season but they aren't winning their first game of the season The Tigers were able to win their first game against ......... ......... ......... ......... ......... .........

I asked the question point blank "Well what does that mean that next year there'll be a Turning Point USA chapter?" And they didn't answer that question But more importantly that policy does not exist in writing Right It doesn't exist anywhere um based on our investigation And so neither one of those things hold water And if neither one of those things hold water there must be something else And our sources said that the something else was the fact that you had parents that were angry about the idea of it coming on campus and a principal who just said "Hey this is gonna be too political which is unconstitutional." So w- what I would say Russ's opinion reading between the lines looking at all the facts I know the sources that we've talked to I think the principal panicked um and was trying to find a way to keep the peace which I can respect at some level which is "Hey we don't wanna rock the boat here We don't wanna create tension We want a unified campus This is gonna create some tension so I'm gonna find a way to say no." The problem with that is yes it violates the Constitution yes it violates federal laws yes it violates state law but there's a bigger sort of fundamental problem which is the way to deal with the fact that we can't have constructive debate in this country is not to have no debate at all It's to get better at having constructive debate Yes And that starts at an early age And so if we can create a system where yes there can be a Turning Point USA chapter and simultaneously yes there can be some sort of progressive chapter on campus and students get to decide who they wanna associate with and we create an atmosphere where hopefully those groups are talking to each other engaging with each other civilly we're setting ourselves up for much better conversations in the future than what we're seeing in our country amongst adults right now And so to me instead of saying "I don't wanna rock the boat," the answer should be "How do we create an environment where people get to associate with who they want they get to say what they want and we encourage students to do so in a way that is civil?" Uh I would love to see a list of the current of the current groups on the campus And w- we've asked for that right Um I I know that there are uh at least social organizations on campus that like you know some conservatives would find uh objectionable Um you know there's a gay straight alliance club as an example I I was gonna say like it would bet but bet the farm that there's an LGBTQ alliance of some sort on there uh there's gonna be some type of civil social justice Black pro-Black group and all those are fine as long as you have the ying to the yang And and and I would say great I would say great right Yeah Um it's it what you don't wanna do is a situation where you're having viewpoint discrimination And even like the other 2 uh you know arguments which is like "Hey this is teacher-led." Well 1 I don't think that's true based on the documents that we've gotten and I don't think it's true based on their own statement at some level But the Constitution doesn't say you can't be inspired by an adult if you wanna create a club on campus right Yeah Um people can get ideas from other people And and candidly every club on campus is required to have a sponsor So one man's sponsor is another person's teacher-led group right Yeah Um and then on this this timing thing is even if that policy did exist you would have to show that it had been consistently applied and it would still have to be tailored in a way legally that it didn't deprive people of their rights So you could say like a senior uh is on campus and they're saying "Hey you're making me wait until next year I won't be here next year I'm gonna graduate." Uh that was gonna be what I was gonna say We got a great comment here on X from uh Bourbon Diplomacy which may be the best name on X by the way That's a great name It says uh "Clinton School District attends school almost year round now so when is the correct time?" Yeah I mean again what they put out through surrogates after we did our initial reporting was "Hey we've got this policy and they're in violation," but can't even point to to something in writing I mean Yeah It it seems pretextual when you can't show something in writing And when you ignore a a public record request that explicitly asked for who are the other clubs When were they formed When were they allowed to be on campus They should be able to tell us all of that unless they're just not keeping records of what clubs are on campus which would suggest that they don't actually have a policy Right So what is the next step Is uh is Magnolia Tribune uh to the point of a lawsuit Well we wouldn't be the ones to file a lawsuit right A lawsuit would have to be filed uh either by some of the students who want the club which would be the the most likely scenario if they wanted to push that far or uh you know if there were adults on campus faculty that that thought that their rights had been infringed upon at some level Um my suspicion is that neither one of those things will happen because people don't like the idea of suing their own school Um it takes a rare person Like you'll occasionally see lawsuits percolate That's like one out of a thousand people has the courage to say "Hey I'm gonna do something like this." Is is Clinton in ISD or is it part of Hinds County I should know that I don't off the top of my head Uh- Yeah yeah no I do know that 'cause they they've got their own superintendent Yeah yeah it's independent Okay I I wasn't sure I I knew I know Pearl is and I and I grew up going to Byron which is part of uh Hinds County so I just wasn't sure if Clinton was part of that or not Never actually Yeah Never needed to know that So I mean a lawsuit is poten- is possible I I don't necessarily see that You know I I think the the most likely scenario if if the high school does the right thing they're not gonna come out and admit that they violated the Constitution No government official's ever gonna be like "Hey I violated the Constitution federal law and state law." What you hear instead is the kinda stuff that you heard here which is "Oh we wanted to help you but you didn't follow this unwritten process that we expected you to follow." So they're not gonna do that But if I were the district if I was on that board of of the school uh or if I was the principal I'd be trying to figure out a way to get it started Yeah there's gotta be a way to put the paste back in the tube a little bit here before it spirals outta control I mean you're sitting here like- Well it got it got mentioned on CNN That's where I was going yeah Um so so you know Abby Phillips' program Newsline on CNN it got mentioned there Uh I expect that there will be other national outlets that will be covering this Um there's an opportunity for Clinton to do the right thing and recognize that kids deserve the right to have this kinda club on campus if they want it Um for Magnolia Tribune's part we're not giving up right We still have several public record requests that we don't feel like have been answered uh and that weren

5 Bombshell Revelations from Jane's Final Day Testifying Against Sean Combs Sean "Diddy" Combs federal sex trafficking trial took a dramatic turn on Day 22 as key witness "Jane" concluded her explosive six-day testimony with revelations that could seal the music mogul's fate. In this comprehensive breakdown, we analyze the most damaging evidence presented, including secret text messages where Combs allegedly instructed male escorts to "persuade" Jane into participating in sexual encounters she never knew were being orchestrated behind her back. Today's testimony revealed a disturbing pattern: violence followed by coerced sexual acts with hired escorts. Jane testified about a June 2024 altercation that left her with welts and a black eye, immediately followed by Combs allegedly forcing her to perform sexual acts with an escort named "Anton." The prosecution presented text evidence showing Combs messaging escort "Paul" saying "Imma need you to persuade her" regarding Jane's participation in what he called "hotel nights." Financial control emerged as a central theme, with revelations that Combs continues paying $10,000 monthly for Jane's rent and her 5,300-square-foot home. When asked if she'd give up her home to never participate in another "hotel night," Jane's inability to immediately answer illustrated the depth of her financial entrapment. The day's proceedings also featured controversy as prosecutors moved to dismiss Juror No. 6 for "lack of candor," raising concerns about trial fairness and potential grounds for appeal. Meanwhile, prosecutor Maurene Comey announced the government might rest its case by June 18, significantly ahead of schedule, suggesting confidence in their evidence from just two main witnesses. This video provides expert analysis of the legal implications, examines the prosecution's strategy, and explores what this means for Combs' defense team as they prepare to present their case. We break down the specific charges, mandatory minimums for federal sex trafficking, and why these secret "persuasion" texts could be the smoking gun prosecutors needed. #DiddyTrial #SeanCombs #TrueCrime #FederalCourt #SexTraffickingTrial #JusticeForJane #BreakingNews #CourtTV #Diddy2025 #TrueCrimeCommunity Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

What Does God's Word Say?James 4:1-2 ESV What causes quarrels and what causes fights among you? Is it not this, that your passions are at war within you? You desire and do not have, so you murder. You covet and cannot obtain, so you fight and quarrel. You do not have, because you do not ask.
