Dr. Heather LynnHeather is an author, historian, and renegade archaeologist specializing in the investigation of hidden histories, forbidden artifacts, and the symbolic systems that have shaped human civilization. Known for challenging conventional narratives and making complex historical subjects accessible, she brings a rare interdisciplinary lens to her work.Heather's undergraduate training in archaeology and information technology led to a Master's in History, followed by a Doctorate in Education from the University of New England and a Doctorate in Comparative Religion. Her doctoral research at UNE examined how history museums communicate with the public in the digital age, exploring how institutions shape cultural memory, identity, and civic engagement through technology. This work bridged museum studies, sociology, and communication theory, offering insights into how societies curate their own narratives, and what those choices reveal about power, heritage, and truth.Her current research explores the intersection of archaeology, mythology, and power: forgotten temples, anomalous artifacts, elite rituals, and the selective preservation of history. She does not confine herself to the academic mainstream, nor does she chase the fringe for spectacle. Instead, her work asks why certain truths remain buried, and what that reveals about the human condition.Hugh NewmanHugh Newman is an author, documentary maker, world explorer, megalith researcher, and expedition leader.

One Catholic version of the Bible translates Genesis 3:15 with a major spin. The LordGod prophesies to the serpent, “ “ I will put enmities between thee and the woman, andthy seed and her seed: SHE SHALL CRUSH THY HEAD.” Consequently, some Catholictheologians teach the serpent-crushing woman is Mary, the mother of Jesus. ProtestantBible versions instead render this passage, “HE WILL BRUISE YOUR HEAD”—speaking ofJESUS.

If your StreamYard local recording takes forever to upload—or never finishes at all—there's a simple reason most people overlook: disk space.In this episode, I break down one of the most common (and costly) StreamYard mistakes. Local recordings rely on available storage on your computer. If you're low on disk space, uploads will crawl. If you run out entirely, the local file is gone—and there's no way to recover it. You'll be stuck with only the cloud recording.I'll explain:-Why StreamYard local recordings fail to upload-How disk storage directly affects recording speed and reliability-What happens when your computer runs out of space mid-record-Why you should always check storage before hitting record-How to add disk space requirements to your guest instructionsThis is a simple fix that can save you from losing irreplaceable interviews.

AI doesn't threaten creativity because it imitates. It threatens creativity because it lets us skip the hard part. There's a concept called the Helsinki Bus Station Theory: early in a creative life, everyone's work looks the same. That's not failure—it's the necessary beginning. Originality isn't a leap. It's endurance.What worries me about AI is that it short-circuits that phase. When we offload first drafts, concepts, or style exploration to AI, we step off the bus before our path has time to diverge. The work looks polished—but it isn't ours. This episode isn't anti-AI. It's a warning about skipping discomfort, struggle, and boredom—the very things that forge a creative voice.Originality isn't something you generate. It's a route you survive.

One of the most haunting moments in Nuremberg isn't about the verdict—it's about restraint. In a quiet execution scene, a condemned Nazi breaks down. He panics. He loses control. And the man who helps clean him up before his death is a Jewish guard.This episode isn't an argument against punishment. It's an argument against dehumanization as punishment. After the Holocaust—one of the most heinous crimes in human history—the response at Nuremberg was measured, procedural, and deeply human. Not because the crimes deserved mercy, but because justice loses its legitimacy the moment it becomes barbaric. The defendants were given lawyers, a platform, and the dignity to speak—even when there was real fear they could manipulate public opinion or reframe themselves as martyrs. That risk was taken anyway. Because justice that only exists when it's easy isn't justice—it's control.Even when the sentence was death, it wasn't spectacle. No cheering crowds. No humiliation. No entertainment.That Jewish guard becomes the moral center of the story—not through forgiveness or absolution, but through dignity within necessity. He refuses revenge. He refuses spectacle. He refuses to let evil dictate his own humanity. In a time when punishment is increasingly public, instant, and performative—especially online—Nuremberg asks a harder question than “Who deserves punishment?” It asks: Who do we become when we deliver it?

On this week's Broadway Nation podcast, Albert Evans and I once again go “In Search of Lost Broadway,” as part of our occasional podcast series in which we try to rediscover significant hit Broadway musicals from the past that today are almost entirely unknown and forgotten. This is the third episode in which we go in search of the 1934 smash hit bio-jukebox-musical, The Great Waltz — one of the longest-running shows of the 1930s. Today, Albert and I discuss and review two adaptations of this musical that were produced one a year apart in the mid-1950s: a radio version starring Gordon MacRae on his The Railroad Hour show,  and a live television extravaganza starring Patrice Munsel, Keith Andes, and Burt Lahr.

“Be the author of your life, not the editor” sounds like a platitude—until you actually try to live it.In this episode, I unpack what that phrase really means for artists, filmmakers, and anyone navigating uncertainty. There is never a perfect time to start a project, pitch an idea, or pursue a dream. Waiting for every light to turn green is a trap.Drawing from the realities of the creative industry, historical examples like Ernest Hemingway, and my own experience as a working filmmaker, I talk about how to take agency without denying reality—how to work within constraints instead of reacting to them, and how to keep creating even when conditions aren't ideal.If you're feeling stalled, overwhelmed, or unsure how to move forward, this episode is about reclaiming authorship over your life and your work.

Sometimes you hear a phrase and everything suddenly makes sense. In this episode, I explore the idea of “monetized dysfunction”—a term that instantly reframed how I see many of the systems we move through every day. (FYI it comes from NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani). From long airport security lines to subscription-based “fixes,” we're often paying to work around problems instead of actually solving them.This isn't about partisan politics or having all the answers. It's about learning to correctly name the problem. Because real change starts with seeing dysfunction for what it is—and recognizing when it's being packaged, sold, and normalized.By identifying monetized dysfunction when we encounter it, we can begin calling it out, demanding better solutions, and refusing to accept broken systems as inevitable.

There's been no shortage of think pieces about a potential Netflix acquisition of Warner Bros., but one angle feels surprisingly under-discussed: what this would mean for physical media.In this episode, I explore why a streaming-first business model poses a real threat to Blu-rays, DVDs, and permanent film ownership—even if theatrical releases continue. As someone who values owning movies, not just renting access to them, I reflect on how streaming has quietly failed its original promise of “everything, anywhere, anytime,” and how entire eras of film history risk becoming inaccessible.This isn't a prediction or a panic piece. It's a reflection on what gets lost when catalogs are absorbed, when media becomes purely digital, and when convenience replaces preservation. Whether or not a deal ever happens, the trend itself raises serious questions for film lovers and for the future of cinema.

Welcome to In Search of Excellence! In this episode, we are joined by Oz Perlman, the most sought-after and famous mentalist in the world. Known for his incredible run on America's Got Talent in 2015, and working with many celebrities and athletes, including Tom Brady and man sports teams, Oz reveals the "super secrets" to success that go far beyond the stage. We dive into his journey from being a math prodigy who aced the SATs at age 12 to becoming a master of communication and human behavior.Oz shares his philosophy on relentlessness, the importance of doing "shit work," and why offering to work for free is the ultimate "one-way call option" for your career. Whether you are an entrepreneur, a student, or someone looking to sharpen your communication skills, Oz's insights on capturing attention and overcoming the fear of failure will provide a roadmap for your own excellence.Timestamps● 00:00 – The "Super Secret" to getting any job.● 01:21 – Oz Perlman's background and the meaning of "Oz".● 04:12 – Growing up as an "engineering brat" and moving to the US.● 06:10 – Developing communication skills through restaurant magic.● 08:45 – Skipping 4th grade and winning the Spelling Bee.● 10:30 – Getting a perfect 800 on the Math SAT at age 12.● 15:05 – The seminal moment: A cruise ship magic show that changed everything.● 19:22 – Learning from books vs. videos: Why "sweat equity" matters.● 23:40 – AI, ChatGPT, and the future of human creativity.● 30:15 – Cleaning bathrooms and the value of "shit work”.● 36:12 – Managing time, blocking schedules, and delegating admin tasks.● 40:10 – The Zia's Restaurant story: How to sell yourself by offering zero risk.Check out Oz Pearlman's book “Read Your Mind” at this link: https://www.ozpearlman.com/bookConnect with Oz:● Website: https://www.ozpearlman.com/● Instagram: https://tinyurl.com/rcf9529j● X: https://x.com/OzTheMentalist?s=20If you found Oz's insights on relentless success and the "work for free" strategy helpful, please give this video a LIKE, leave a COMMENT with your biggest takeaway, and SUBSCRIBE for more interviews with the world's most excellent people!Listen to this episode on the go!

The three pillars of Catholicism (also called “The Three Legs”) are Sacred Scripture, Sacred Tradition, and the Magisterium. All three are equally revered by Catholics, and given equal authority, so if something cannot be proven by “Sacred Scripture,” but is part of “Sacred Tradition” and approved by “the Magisterium,” it is established as official dogma. Is there relevance to this point of view, or can it result in a departure from “the faith which was once delivered to the saints” (Jude 1:3)?Comparative religion website: www.thetruelight.net Ministry website: www.shreveministries.org The Catholic Project website: http://www.toCatholicswithlove.org (English & Spanish)Video channel: www.YouTube.com/mikeshreveministries All audio-podcasts are shared in a video format on our YouTube channel.

Socrates believed it was better to be criticized than to criticize—because honest challenge reveals flaws in our thinking and helps us become wiser, more humane people.In this episode, I reflect on a Socratic idea we often overlook: entering dialogue by seeing the other person in their highest form. Not as an enemy, not as a caricature, but as a fully human being capable of growth and truth.Drawing from my discussion of Open Socrates by Agnes Callard (https://youtu.be/mLI9VMwD2GQ), as well as examples from thinkers and practitioners like Richard Schwartz (creator of Internal Family Systems) and Loretta Ross, I explore what it means to extend grace without abandoning boundaries.This isn't about agreeing with everyone or tolerating harm. It's about choosing inquiry over combat, elevation over gossip, and responsibility over resentment—especially in a world increasingly defined by division, outrage, and dehumanization.

“What did you help with today?” and “How did you fail?” These two simple questions—shared by Natasha Beck, also known as Dr. Organic Mommy—are meant for kids, but they apply just as powerfully to adults.Instead of the routine “How was school?” or “How was work?”, these questions reinforce two essential values: caring about community and normalizing failure as part of growth. Helping doesn't have to mean something grand—it can be as simple as supporting a friend or showing up for someone in a small way. And failure, when talked about openly, becomes a teacher rather than something to hide.In this episode, I reflect on how these questions can deepen everyday conversations with partners, friends, and even ourselves through journaling. What we ask shapes what we notice—and these questions gently shift our focus toward contribution, learning, and meaning.

The last of five “sacred doors” in Rome and at the Vatican will be closed on January 6, 2026. Around 30 million Catholics have made a pilgrimage there in 2025, proclaimed by Pope Francis to be a special “year of Jubilee.” By walking through those doors, pilgrims hoped to earn indulgences facilitating an escape from the suffering of Purgatory, either for them or their deceased loved ones. Is this religious tradition a glorious opportunity or spiritual exploitation? Are they doors of blessings or doors of deception?Comparative religion website: www.thetruelight.net Ministry website: www.shreveministries.org The Catholic Project website: http://www.toCatholicswithlove.org (English & Spanish) Video channel: www.YouTube.com/mikeshreveministries All audio-podcasts are shared in a video format on our YouTube channel.

According to Catholic doctrine, Mary, the mother of Jesus, was a virgin before, during, and after the birth of Jesus—and thus, a virgin eternally. Is this true? Does the Bible verify this concept? Did any respected leaders in the early church promote this idea? So much hinges on these questions being answered correctly.Comparative religion website: www.thetruelight.net Ministry website: www.shreveministries.org The Catholic Project website: http://www.toCatholicswithlove.org (English & Spanish) Video channel: www.YouTube.com/mikeshreveministries All audio-podcasts are shared in a video format on our YouTube channel.

This week Albert Evans joins me once again as we go “In Search of Lost Broadway.” Specifically, the 1934 smash-hit musical The Great Waltz, conceived, directed, and lighted by Hassard. Short, with a book by Moss Hart, choreography by Albertina Rasch, based on the Viennese operetta and London hit, Waltzes From Vienna with English lyrics by Desmond Carter, and featuring the music of both Johann Strausses, I and II. If you missed the first episode in this series, you may want to catch up with that before listening to this one. Today, because 2025 marks the 200th anniversary of the birth of Johann Strauss II,  I begin by taking a brief survey of his surprisingly substantial legacy on Broadway,  including  26 Broadway productions featuring his music between 1882 and 1990. Then Albert and I begin to explore the long legacy of The Great Waltz, which includes multiple film and stage productions spanning from the 1930s to the 1970s, with a special focus in this episode on the fourth incarnation of this musical: the 1938 MGM film operetta, also titled The Great Waltz. But is it indeed a movie version of the Broadway show? That's the big question we try to solve. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

The imposition of Communist ideology was a misfortune for millions in Eastern Europe, but never for Dennis Deletant. Instead, it drew him to Romania. The renowned historian's association with the country and its people dates back to 1965, when he first visited. Since then, Romania has made Dennis appreciate the value of shrewd dissimulation, in the face of the state's gross intrusion in the life of the individual. This vivid memoir charts his first-hand experience of the Communist era, coloured by the early 1970s surveillance of his future wife Andrea; his contacts with dissidents; and his articles and BBC World Service broadcasts, which led to his being declared persona non grata in 1988.  In Search of Romania (Hurst, 2022) also considers how life went on under dictatorship, even if it was largely mapped out by the regime. How did individual citizens negotiate the challenges placed in their path? How important was the political police, the Securitate, in maintaining compliance? How did dissent towards the regime manifest? How did all this affect the moral compass of the individual? Why did utopia descend into dystopia under Ceaușescu? And how has his legacy influenced the difficult transition to democracy since the collapse of Communism? Roland Clark is a Senior Lecturer in Modern European History at the University of Liverpool, a Senior Fellow with the Centre for Analysis of the Radical Right, and the Principal Investigator of an AHRC-funded project on European Fascist Movements.

After a long hiatus where we both saw grief counsellors over our fight about Popper's theory of content in the last C&R episode, we are back. And we're ready to play nice ... for about 30 seconds until Vaden admits that two sentences from Popper changed his mind about something Ben had arguing for literally years. But eventually putting those disagreements aside, we return to the subject at hand: The Conjectures and Refutations Series: Chapter 10: Truth, Rationality, and the Growth of Scientific Knowledge (Part II). Here all goes smoothly. Just kidding, we start fighting about content again almost immediately. Where are the guests to break us up when you need them. We discuss Why Vaden changed his mind about "all thought is problem solving" Something that rhymes with wero horship Is Popper sloppy when it comes to writing about probability and content Is all modern data science based on the wrong idea? (Hint: No) Popper's problem-focused view of scientific progress How much formalization is too much? The difference between high verisimilitude and high probability Why do we value simplicity in science? Historical examples of science progressing via theories with increasing content Quotes Consciousness, world 2, was presumably an evaluating and discerning consciousness, a problem-solving consciousness, right from the start. I have said of the animate part of the physical world 1 that all organisms are problem solvers. My basic assumption regarding world 2 is that this problem-solving activity of the animate part of world 1 resulted in the emergence of world 2, of the world of consciousness. But I do not mean by this that consciousness solves problems all the time, as I asserted of the organisms. On the contrary. The organisms are preoccupied with problem-solving day in, day out, but consciousness is not only concerned with the solving of problems, although that is its most important biological function. My hypothesis is that the original task of consciousness was to anticipate success and failure in problem-solving and to signal to the organism in the form of pleasure and pain whether it was on the right or wrong path to the solution of the problem. In Search of a Better World, p.17 (emphasis added) The criterion of potential satisfactoriness is thus testability, or improbability: only a highly testable or improbable theory is worth testing, and is actually (and not merely potentially) satisfactory if it withstands severe tests—especially those tests to which we could point as crucial for the theory before they were ever undertaken. - C&R, Chapter 10 Consequently there is little merit in formalizing and elaborating a deductive system (intended for use as an empirical science) beyond the requirements of the task of criticizing and testing it, and of comparing it critically with competitors. - C&R, Chapter 10 Admittedly, our expectations, and thus our theories, may precede, historically, even our problems. Yet science starts only with problems. Problems crop up especially when we are disappointed in our expectations, or when our theories involve us in difficulties, in contradictions; and these may arise either within a theory, or between two different theories, or as the result of a clash between our theories and our observations. - C&R, Chapter 10 Socials Follow us on Twitter at @IncrementsPod, @BennyChugg, @VadenMasrani Come join our discord server!

This is the second in our occasional series of episodes that I'm calling "In Search of Lost Broadway,” in which my longtime  colleague Albert Evans and I try to unearth and rediscover musicals that were very significant and influential Broadway hits in their day but now have disappeared from almost all discussion of Broadway's past and receive only the briefest mentions in the history books. Today, we focus on a big hit musical of the 1930s that I highly doubt anyone listening to this podcast has ever seen live on stage. That show is THE GREAT WALTZ.  It opened on Broadway in 1934  and became one of the longest-running musicals of the decade.  It was the creation of three very significant Broadway artists of what I call the “Silver Age” of Broadway: bookwriter MOSS HART, choreographer ALBERTINA RASCH, and, most notably, the musicals conceiver, director, and lighting designer HASSARD SHORT — who I have come to believe is one of the most important and yet most under-acknowledged Queer inventors of the Broadway musical. Our goal (at least until someone invents a time machine so that we can journey back to see the show) has been to identify and evaluate firsthand accounts, reviews, scholarship, recordings, films, videos, et cetera (including three movie versions and a live television production) in terms of how effectively they can help us to understand, appreciate and even, to some degree, experience the original Broadway production.  Another reason I selected this show for us to focus on right now is because just a few weeks ago,  October 25th, 2025,  marked the 200th anniversary of the birth of JOHANN STRAUSS II,  who even though he died in 1899,  had an amazingly significant presence on Broadway during the 20th century, including 27 showsfeaturing his music between 1882  and 1990. Albert and I will review that list of musicals on the next episode. Here is your Broadway Nation Ep 192: In Search of Lost Broadway: The Great Waltz companion guide to related media: A studio cast recording of Waltzes From Vienna, the score of which seems to have been carried over into the Broadway production of The Great Waltz:  Onstage and behind-the-scenes newsreel footage of the original production of The Great Waltz:  The full 1934 film version of Waltzes From Vienna, directed by Alfred Hitchcock:  Learn more about your ad choices.

How appropriate it would be if the attitude of gratitude was highlighted in a ninth beatitude, “Blessed are the grateful, for God often works miracles for them!” In this "True Light" episode, you will discover that the story of Jonah in the Bible is completely different from what most people have been taught. We will also find out that thankfulness was the primary key to his deliverance. Two other powerful, real-life stories illustrate this powerful concept even more powerfully. Try it!

What does it mean for a country to seek admiration — and what kinds of institutions try to make that admiration possible? Yanqiu Zheng's In Search of Admiration and Respect: Chinese Cultural Diplomacy in the United States, 1875–1974 (U Michigan Press, 2024) traces how China attempted to reshape its international image across a century marked by imperialism, political upheaval, civil war, and Cold War realignments. Beginning in the late Qing, when China's reputation was battered by foreign domination, Yanqiu examines the painstaking emergence of cultural diplomacy as a long-term pedagogical project, one that sought to teach America about China through art, opera, exhibitions, lectures, and even reconstructed rickshaws. Drawing on archives in the United States, Taiwan, and mainland China, Zheng reconstructs how institutions such as the China Institution navigated competing agendas, the often-chaotic world of philanthropy, and geopolitical crises to present China on a global stage.  Throughout, In Search of Admiration and Respect asks questions that are still relevant today: How do countries cultivate cultural authority? What happens when narratives of refinement collide with Orientalist imaginaries? And how to institutions such as government ministries, nonprofits, and museums shape the ways nations hope to be seen? This book will interest readers of modern Chinese history, U.S.–China relations, museum and exhibition history, and anyone curious about how culture intertwines with politics of the global stage. Listeners of the episode might also want to check out an article that Yanqiu mentions over the course of our conversation: "Chinese Tofu in Cold War Taiwan: Gendered Cosmopolitanism and Contested Chineseness," available here.  Learn more about your ad choices.

What happens when narratives of refinement collide with Orientalist imaginaries? And how to institutions such as government ministries, nonprofits, and museums shape the ways nations hope to be seen? This book will interest readers of modern Chinese history, U.S.–China relations, museum and exhibition history, and anyone curious about how culture intertwines with politics of the global stage. Listeners of the episode might also want to check out an article that Yanqiu mentions over the course of our conversation: "Chinese Tofu in Cold War Taiwan: Gendered Cosmopolitanism and Contested Chineseness," available here.  Learn more about your ad choices.
