Since Oct. 7, 22 year-old Palestinian-American influencer Hamzah Saadah has gained international notoriety for doing something that no mainstream news outlet would dare to do: asking regular Israelis what they think about Palestine. The results have been shocking, as Hamzah's interviews with civilians and soldiers alike demonstrate a comfort and willingness to use "genocidal rhetoric" across Israeli society. Hamzah now joins Mehdi for a live taping of 'We're Not Kidding' at the Sundance Film Festival in Park City, Utah to discuss his work on social media and take some questions from the audience.  Before Oct. 7, Hamzah was a gaming influencer, musician, and magician (yes, you read that right) with nearly 8 million followers across social media. But once Israel's genocide began in Gaza, Hamzah made the decision to use his massive following to expose the anti-Palestinian rhetoric of some Israeli soldiers. The two also discuss: Receiving threats for their political work. Larry Ellison and censorship on TikTok. The time the police showed up at Hamzah's house at 3:00am. How to change the minds of audiences. How old Mehdi is, again, and again, and again. 2026 Sundance Film Festival. Recorded at The Muslim House® Produced by the MPAC® Hollywood Bureau with the support of the Doris Duke Foundation.

Melissa has officially become…an influencer. Except instead of influencing you to buy something, she's influencing you to do something wildly radical in 2026: delete social media from your phone. In this late-night minisode, Melissa shares the unexpected challenge she took on for the new year—and why it's been one of the best decisions she's made for her mental health, focus, and overall life. In this episode, we talk about: The Japanese concept of "misogi" (doing something so hard you have less than a 50% chance of finishing) Why Melissa deleted Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, and more on January 1 Revenge bedtime procrastination (aka scrolling until 12:30 AM because you "deserve it") How social media quietly fuels pressure, comparison, and anxiety Why "continued use despite adverse consequences" is a wake-up call The surprising truth: she doesn't miss it at all What she's gained instead: better sleep, more reading, more peace, more time How she still stays connected (Facebook groups + watching TikToks her kids send) Why organizers do NOT need social media to grow a successful business How she's accidentally converted other people into quitting too If you've been feeling overstimulated, scattered, burned out, or addicted to the scroll… this episode is your sign. Want to try it too? Melissa is offering to be your accountability buddy. Email: hello@proorganizerstudio.com

On this week's Fascinating Ohio, we're talking to a fashion influencer, a pair of restaurant owners and a museum director.

After years on the brand side managing influencer budgets (and plenty of honest conversations with friends who still run campaigns today), I'm sharing five things creators do that quietly destroy their chances of getting a paid partnership - often without even realizing it.We're talking about the small habits, wording, and positioning choices that can either build trust with brands… or quietly hurt your credibility.If you're trying to land more paid opportunities this year, this episode is a helpful reset and a reminder that a few small tweaks can completely change how you're perceived (and paid).

Grassroots organizers have increasingly used the messaging app Signal to coordinate responses to MAGA authoritarianism. It remains the best messaging app available, but the “ICE Out” protests in Minneapolis demonstrated how regime propagandists and corrupt law enforcement can attack and exploit it. Influencers entered public-facing Signal chats and ferried the information there to Kash Patel's FBI. In this PTI Bulletin, Bill Budington of the Electronic Frontier Foundation joins Jared and Mike to explain how Signal's originated, how the app works, and how to use it effectively on America's increasingly volatile streets.>> Learn more about the Electronic Frontier Foundation>> Learn more about Signal

In this kickoff episode from the "Waiting for Weight Loss" series, Heather Creekmore shares her deeply personal journey with body image, dieting, and seeking value through weight loss. From childhood memories of self-critique, through dieting routines, relationship struggles, motherhood, aging, and finally, a shift in perspective toward faith and lasting hope, Heather invites listeners to reflect on their own stories. She encourages women to join the new online community, engage honestly about their desires, and find out they're not alone in this battle. The episode ends with a prayer and an invitation to process what waiting for weight loss really means during Lent.

Send a textWellness culture didn't start with Instagram. From George Cheyne's 1724 bestseller to Dr. Lulu Hunt Peters redefining fat bodies as "the enemy within," the methods and ideology haven't changed in four centuries—even as the evidence proves they've never worked. In this episode, I trace wellness influencers back to the 17th century, exposing how former fat people turned their weight cycling into moral crusades, transforming fat bodies from "friendly jokes" into threats deserving punishment. These aren't just historical curiosities—they're the architects of today's war on ob*sity, and understanding their playbook helps us see modern wellness influencers for what they really are: unoriginal copycats parroting 400-year-old nonsense. Got a question for the next podcast?

Die Epstein‑Files - das sind Millionen Dokumente. Sie offenbaren ein internationales Geflecht, dessen Ausmaß erst allmählich sichtbar wird. Das Netzwerk des verurteilten Sexualstraftäters Jeffrey Epstein reichte bis nach Europa. Und auch Deutschland taucht in den Akten auf: etwa bei Epsteins Überlegung, die Privatbank Sal. Oppenheim zu kaufen. Mit NDR‑Reporterin Anna Klühspies sprechen wir darüber, wie sie und ihr Team sich durch die unzähligen Dokumente arbeiten und warum sie dabei langsamer sind als Influencer in den sozialen Medien. In dieser früheren 11KM-Folge geht es um „Norwegen und die Epstein-Akten: Krone in der Krise“: https://1.ard.de/11KM_Norwegen_Epstein Hier geht's zu “extra 3 - Bosettis Woche”, unserem Podcast-Tipp: https://www.ardaudiothek.de/episode/urn:ard:episode:aaca69efe9a301e1/ Diese und viele weitere Folgen von 11KM findet ihr überall da, wo es Podcasts gibt, auch hier in der ARD Audiothek: https://www.ardaudiothek.de/sendung/11km-der-tagesschau-podcast/12200383/ An dieser Folge waren beteiligt: Folgenautor: Sebastian Schwarzenböck Mitarbeit: Nadja Mitzkat Host: David Krause Produktion: Emilian Grimm, Konrad Winkler, Jonas Teichmann und Christine Dreyer Planung: Nicole Dienemann und Hardy Funk Distribution: Kerstin Ammermann Redaktionsleitung: Yasemin Yüksel und Fumiko Lipp 11KM: der tagesschau-Podcast wird produziert von BR24 und NDR Info.

In this episode, we explore modern-day visionary experiences like near-death experiences (NDEs), deathbed visions, and striking dreams. Many assume the supernatural “only happened back then,” but we examine reports from respected scholars, public figures, and historical voices to challenge the claim that miracle testimony comes only from the “ignorant and barbarous.” Dr. Steve Miller joins the conversation to share research-driven insights on why testimonies from credible people still matter and how NDEs and deathbed experiences commonly reshape priorities (especially around love and relationships) *Get a MASTERS IN APOLOGETICS or SCIENCE AND RELIGION at BIOLA (https://bit.ly/3LdNqKf) *USE Discount Code [smdcertdisc] for 25% off the BIOLA APOLOGETICS CERTIFICATE program (https://bit.ly/3AzfPFM) *See our fully online UNDERGRAD DEGREE in Bible, Theology, and Apologetics: (https://bit.ly/448STKK) FOLLOW ME ON SOCIAL MEDIA: Twitter: https://x.com/Sean_McDowell TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@sean_mcdowell?lang=en Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/seanmcdowell/ Website: https://seanmcdowell.org Discover more Christian podcasts at lifeaudio.com and inquire about advertising opportunities at lifeaudio.com/contact-us.

In this episode, host Gordon Glenister is joined by Sega Cheng, entrepreneur and founder of an AI-powered influencer marketing platform, for an in-depth discussion on how technology is transforming the creator economy. Sega shares her journey into influencer marketing and explains how the industry has evolved from ad-hoc creator partnerships into a data-driven discipline, particularly across Asian markets where scale and performance measurement are critical. A key theme of the conversation is the growing role of AI in influencer marketing. Sega explains how artificial intelligence can help brands identify the right creators, predict campaign performance, ensure brand safety, and move beyond superficial metrics such as follower counts. Instead, the focus is shifting towards engagement quality, audience relevance and long-term value. Gordon and Sega also explore the importance of authenticity and trust in creator relationships. They discuss why one-off campaigns are becoming less effective and how sustained partnerships between brands and creators can deliver stronger results and deeper community connections. Transparency, fair compensation and ethical use of data are highlighted as essential foundations for future growth.The episode concludes with a forward-looking view of the influencer marketing landscape, emphasising the need for smarter analytics, global best practices and a more sustainable, community-led approach as the creator economy continues to mature.

Er ist laut, schrill und einer der grössten Influencer der Welt: IShowSpeed, 21 Jahre alt, 135 Millionen Follower auf verschiedenen Plattformen. Auf seiner Afrikareise durch 20 Länder wurde er von Menschenmengen empfangen – und von Politikern hofiert. Millionen schauten live zu, wie er traditionelle Ringer in Senegal traf, bei den Maasai die Viehzucht kennenlernte oder Berggorillas in Ruanda besuchte. Doch was bedeutet diese Reise? Afrika-Korrespondent Samuel Misteli ordnet ein, warum IShowSpeed bei jungen Menschen auf dem Kontinent einen Nerv trifft – und weshalb seine Streams auch in den USA das Afrikabild positiv verändern. Gleichzeitig bleibt Kritik: Dient der Kontinent dem Streamer und Influencer am Ende doch nur als Kulisse für Klicks?

Carla Rockmore is a fashion influencer and designer. She began her career in retail before transitioning into the design department, utilizing fundamental skills acquired during her fashion trade school education. Rockmore developed her creative vision across categories, designing everything from ladies' dresses for high-end department stores to licensed children's sleepwear for Disney. She pivoted into content creation during the pandemic, when she found herself in need of a creative outlet while all of her projects were on hold. Her career online started in her fifties, posting TikTok videos of herself getting ready in hopes of teaching other women how to express themselves through clothing. Before she knew it, Rockmore was dubbed “the Carrie Bradshaw of TikTok” and quickly became a fashion authority known for her iconic two-story closet. Today, she has almost two million followers, and she does it all while continuing her work as a designer with her clothing line, the Carla Rockmore Collection, which you can shop now on QVC.

Während den Corona-Lockdown-Jahren entstand ein neuer Lifestlye-Trend für heterosexuelle Frauen: Das Tradwife. Influencer*innen mit 1950er-Jahre Hausfrau-Nostalgie ließen immer mehr Menschen von einen Leben träumen, in dem sie sich vollkommen der Fürsorgearbeit widmen konnten - solange sie patriarchale Hierarchien akzeptierten und sich unterordneten. Das Tradwife unterstützte den Rechtsruck. Doch in den letzten Monaten ist wieder ein anderes rechtes Frauenideal aufgetaucht. Sie stellt sich mit Blazer und strengem Blick auf die Bühne und vor Mikrofone: Das rechte Girlboss. Sie will sich einerseits wie die Tradwives für "traditionelle" Werte einsetzen - andererseits Politik aktiv mitgestalten. Damit vermittelt sie eine Gegensätzlichkeit, die sie absichtlich nicht auflöst. Sie ist ambitioniert, ordnet sich aber den Männern unter - sie arbeitet viel und rät anderen Frauen zuhause zu bleiben. Ist das rechte Girlboss die Antwort auf eine Gesellschaftslage, wo die meisten Eltern es gar nicht schaffen, nur mit einem Einkommen zu leben? In dieser Folge diskutieren wir, was es mit dem rechten Girlboss auf sich hat.

When we turn our expectations toward Jesus and His return, he brings peace and purpose in a world that constantly disappoints. If you're feeling the weight of unmet expectations, tune into this message.

In this episode,Brenay and Tim sit down to tell Dr. Phil their side: they say that Tim's marriage was already over, that Brenay has been unfairly cast as a Jezebel because of her influence and image, and that the law itself is out of step with modern relationships and social media. With exclusive details from court filings, a blow‑by‑blow timeline of the affair, and powerful commentary on infidelity, accountability, and online hate, the conversation asks whetherBrenay is a reckless homewrecker, a scapegoat for a broken marriage, or the unlikely face of a legal fight that could rewrite the rules of love and blame in the digital age.​Thank you to our sponsors:Diabetes doesn't wait.
