She works within an ancient system that views astrology not as prediction but participation. Drawing on archetypal wisdom and depth psychology, Badger reveals how the patterns of the cosmos mirror the deep structures of our psyches, offering a map for transformation in times of upheaval. Interwoven with ecological consciousness, her work reminds us that inner renewal and the healing of the Earth are inseparable.

Rabbi Pesach Wolicki - Shared Destiny: The Interwoven Narratives of Jewish and Christian Support for Israel Rabbi Pesach Wolicki joins us to discuss his background growing up in an Orthodox Jewish family in Canada and his move to Israel, where he advocated for families of missing soldiers. He describes his first encounters with Christian Zionists, the development of his work building relations between Jewish and Christian communities, and the biblical understanding of the modern State of Israel as the fulfillment of long-standing prophecies. We also address differences between religious and secular Jewish communities in Israel and the diaspora, and examines replacement theology. Rabbi Pesach Wolicki is an Orthodox rabbi, author, and Executive Director of Israel 365 Action. Born in the United States and raised in Canada as the son of a rabbi, he moved to Israel in the early 1990s. He began his public work advocating for families of Israeli soldiers missing in action from conflicts in Lebanon and has since become a leading voice in Jewish-Christian relations. A former synagogue rabbi and dean of a yeshiva, he now lectures widely at Christian institutions and co-hosts the Shoulder to Shoulder podcast with Pastor Doug Reed. Connect with Pesach...
Join host Jeff on the April 21 episode of Right On Radio for a wide‑ranging show that mixes hard news, opinion, and spiritual reflection. This episode opens with a short promo for the video course "Decoding the Power of Three" (coupon code: redeem, valid through the end of April) before diving into two main themes: justice and accountability in U.S. politics, and the escalating decisions and negotiations surrounding the Iran conflict. Jeff plays and discusses clips from several commentators and guests, including John Solomon (on Benny Johnson's show), Tulsi Gabbard, Kash Patel (on Maria Bartiromo), and a Newsmax segment alleging a broad conspiracy dating back to the Obama years. Key talking points include anticipated rapid declassification of documents, the prospect of a major “grand conspiracy” case, speculation about high‑profile flips and prosecutions, and timing considerations tied to July 4 and the midterm cycle. The episode moves into foreign policy and the Iran situation: Trump's recent audio interview and repeated references to Iran “giving back the nuclear dust,” reports of a seized ship allegedly carrying materials for rocket fuel, ceasefire/peace talks with looming deadlines, and strategic analysis of factional divides within Iran (IRGC vs. regular army). Jeff outlines several possible outcomes — from negotiated deals to resumed strikes on selected targets — and offers his view on likely military and political tactics. Interwoven throughout is a strong theme of media skepticism and propaganda, with Jeff urging listeners to read between the lines of mainstream coverage. He also references an AI‑produced satirical video clip and other social media items used to illustrate contemporary messaging and culture war dynamics. Religious content and symbolism figure prominently: Jeff previews a prerecorded Trump message to be played at a Bible reading event on the Washington Mall, sponsored by the Museum of the Bible, and highlights Trump's planned reading of 2 Chronicles 7:11–22. The show ends with a clip discussing the Book of Enoch and symbolic connections between ancient texts and modern political parties, tying the political and geopolitical coverage back to biblical interpretation and spiritual urgency. Expect opinionated analysis, selected audio clips, news summaries, biblical readings and reflections, and an open request for listener feedback. Jeff closes with a recap urging faith, family, and community engagement while inviting listeners to weigh in on potential arrests, the Iran negotiations, and the broader implications he sees for America's future.

On the April 15, 2026 episode of Right On Radio host Jeff is joined by his brother in the Lord John from We've Read the Documents for a wide-ranging conversation about spiritual symbolism, geopolitics, and the signs of the age. The show opens with the regular "word on word" scripture segment (Mark 13:33 and Romans 10:9–10) before moving into the main discussion framed by the question: is the world undergoing an "inverted baptism" — the death of the old order and the emergence of a new one? Jeff and John unpack that baptism analogy and consider whether the global realignment has a spiritual layer. They discuss concrete geopolitical moves — including Trump's actions around the Strait of Hormuz, energy-route control (mentions of Indonesia and the Panama Canal), and the risk of escalation — and how those moves fit into a larger pattern of power consolidation. The episode turns to technology and governance: the hosts analyze the roles of Palantir, Peter Thiel, Oracle/Larry Ellison, Sam Altman and the rise of public–private, AI-driven systems that could function as the infrastructural "beast." They debate whether AI will serve as an "image" to be worshipped alongside a literal human Antichrist and explore how corporatocracy and AI governance might be forming today. Political corruption and coercion are central themes. Clips and commentary cover Eric Swalwell and claims of blackmail controlling politicians (including a striking quote from Steve Miller), George Santos's remarks about the PAGE program, renewed talk of Pizzagate and Franklin-era scandals, grand jury activity, and conversations about FISA renewal. Jeff and John assess how these revelations and delays fit into a broader strategy and what they mean for accountability. Interwoven are pastoral reflections: both hosts emphasize God's sovereignty, the need for spiritual discernment, and the limits of human certainty about prophetic timetables. They acknowledge fatigue among listeners, the tension between hope and realism ("hopium"), and the responsibility of Christian communicators to steward platforms prayerfully. The show also includes lighter asides — AI video ethics, nostalgic tech talk (dial-up and rotary phones), and pop-culture hypotheticals — and ends with practical encouragement: love God, love your neighbor, engage your community, and remain discerning and prayerful amid accelerating global change.

Host Jeff opens this Good Friday episode with a blend of faith, personal stories, and hard-hitting analysis. The show begins with the regular Word on Word segment — comparing Psalm 145:18 and Romans 5:6–8 — before moving into a personal anecdote about music smuggling in Iran that inspired the opening song "Rock the Cash Bar." This sets the tone for a program focused on cultural conflict, censorship, and the human cost behind geopolitical headlines. The bulk of the episode examines recent political and financial developments. Jeff reads and decodes Donald Trump's Truth Social post and a current Trump clip about Iran, nuclear risk, and high‑level geopolitical "chess." He connects those statements to broader themes: the petrodollar, sanctions, rising oil prices, and how global debt-holders (China, Japan, India, U.K., etc.) could react in a crisis. Marco Rubio's warning about future limits on sanctions and the global move toward digital currencies prompt a deeper dive into what a digital, asset-backed U.S. stablecoin might mean. Jeff outlines the so-called "Genius Act" and his theory that a future policy could put citizens' collective assets onto a ledger to offset national debt — a move he frames as both a possible rescue for the financial system and a pathway to technocratic control. He ties this scenario into concerns about public‑private partnerships, digital wallets, rewards apps, and the erosion of financial privacy and autonomy, warning of a transition to a single digital currency and greater centralization. Interwoven are other news threads Jeff flags for listeners: legal claims involving the Toronto Star and alleged RCMP disclosures about Justin Trudeau, ongoing Melania/Epstein reporting, Artemis moon coverage, and hints at forthcoming UFO/space narratives. He also reflects on theology and eschatology, discussing AI's role in a possible end‑times technocracy and how biblical prophecy factors into his worldview. Practical takeaways and preparedness advice are emphasized: reduce or eliminate personal debt, prioritize hard assets (gold, silver, even land with water or timber), consider physical improvements to owned homes, and keep some cash for short‑term needs. Jeff urges skepticism about the stock market and highlights resource ownership as a hedge against inflation and digital controls, while stressing the importance of community, faith, and prayer (including a Saturday prayer session and a Sunday sermon link). This is a solo episode with host Jeff — a mix of commentary, theory, spiritual reflection, and actionable suggestions. Listeners can expect political decoding, financial hypotheses about a ledger-based stablecoin system, biblical framing of contemporary events, and concrete recommendations for protecting assets in an increasingly digital, centralized world.

On this Wednesday episode of Right On Radio host Jeff is joined by John Brisson of We've Read the Documents for a wide‑ranging, fast‑moving conversation that mixes scripture, current events and prophetic interpretation. The show opens with the regular "Word on Word" segment comparing John 10:11 and Deuteronomy 7:9, followed by a preview of an important Podbean announcement Jeff teases for Friday. Jeff and John dissect a viral literary oddity — Leslie Donald Epstein's 1979 novel King of the Jews — and compare it to earlier prophetic/fictional coincidences (Ingersoll Lockwood, Baron Trump) as they explore themes of cultural projection, anti‑Christian currents in modern thought, and symbolic covers and characters that mirror contemporary figures. The discussion shifts to U.S. domestic politics: controversy around election integrity, the SAVE Act, subpoenas and evidence retrieval in Maricopa and Georgia, reports about DOJ actions around autopen cases, and concerns about National Guard mobilization and expanding detention infrastructure. They weigh possibilities from humiliation rituals to actual exposures that could reshape American politics. Internationally, Jeff and John analyze the Iran conflict, Israel's rhetoric, recent U.S.–Russia communications (including Trump's call with Putin), and shifting energy/financial alignments — including talk of moving energy trades back into U.S. dollars and fractures in BRICS. Military developments and new weapons technology (particle beams/laser/orbital strike) and their strategic implications are examined, with references to historical programs and contemporary contractors. Interwoven with political analysis are prophetic readings: the hosts debate interpretations of the rider on the white horse, whether Trump or another figure fits end‑time archetypes, and how emerging geopolitics might tie to eschatological timelines. They also touch on cultural disclosure topics (institutionalized sexual abuse revelations) and the societal consequences of increasing mainstream acknowledgment. The episode closes with practical notes: an invitation to the weekly Wednesday prayer call on Telegram, a personal update about Jeff's father's hospitalization and a pastoral reminder to love God, family and community. Listeners can expect theology, politics, conspiracy analysis, prophetic reflection and calls to prayer across this episode. Want to Understand and Explain Everything Biblically?

In this uplifting episode of Inside ArtScroll, Rabbi Shlomo Landau sits down with Rabbi David Sutton to explore The Bitachon Haggadah – With a Daily Dose of Preparation, a sefer that transforms the way we approach Pesach. At its heart is a powerful yet simple idea: true freedom doesn't begin on the night of the Seder — it begins thirty days earlier. Rabbi Sutton shares how this unique “two-in-one” work serves both as a 30-day daily reader and a complete Haggadah with commentary, gently guiding readers through a month-long journey of emunah, bitachon, and inner growth so they can arrive at Pesach calm, centered, and spiritually ready. Drawing on the wisdom of Chazal, Rishonim, and later Torah giants, Rabbi Sutton explains how Yetzias Mitzrayim is not merely a story of the past, but a living, personal experience meant to renew our faith each year. Interwoven with meaningful insights and heart-stirring stories, the Haggadah brings warmth and depth to the Seder table while strengthening one's connection to Hashem long after Pesach has passed. This conversation offers a refreshing perspective on preparation, showing how anticipation itself can become a pathway to serenity, clarity, and true cheirus.

Join host Jeff on this Friday episode of Right On Radio for a wide-ranging program that blends scripture, current events, and intelligence analysis. The show opens with the Word on Word segment — a listener-facing scripture choice between 1 John 3:18 and Ephesians 5 — and reflections on faith, hope, and the sing-along power of Chris Tomlin's “Our God.” Jeff moves into pattern-recognition analysis and media commentary, responding to technical issues from a previous livestream with Tim and previewing his own upcoming books (including a project on "decoding the power of three"). He plays and contextualizes a series of clips including excerpts from Tucker Carlson's Huckabee interview about Bibi Netanyahu's Amalek remarks, clips of rabbis discussing the historical concept of Amalek, and related commentary from media figures such as Rick Wiles and a rabbi's daughter describing hidden practices inside religious communities. The episode digs into military and intelligence topics: reports about the USS Gerald Ford operating in the Middle East (including crew unrest and clogged plumbing reportedly caused by sailors), possible Iranian strike capabilities, and the presence of Chinese and Russian naval assets. Jeff cites voices like Colonel Douglas MacGregor and ties those reports to broader geopolitical concerns. Political and national-security coverage includes clips from Tulsi Gabbard on the "deep state," Secretary Kristi Noem describing discovery of a secret SCIF and alleged surveillance on staff devices, John Solomon on election vulnerabilities and Senate procedure, and viral commentary from Steve Seibold about possible political plans. Jeff also touches on documents and allegations involving the Maxwell family, foreign access to U.S. systems, and historical conspiratorial claims he's tracking. Interwoven with the intelligence and political segments are human-interest moments: a military aviator receiving recognition for bravery, a short classroom clip (a nun teaching the virtue of "doing the little things well"), viewer chat reactions, and fundraising updates for the show. Jeff closes with a call to prayer (Saturday at 8 p.m.), encouragement to love God and neighbor, and a musical send-off. Listeners can expect a mix of biblical reflection, multimedia clip analysis, national-security reporting, and opinionated pattern-recognition — plus references to guests and clips from Tim, Tucker Carlson, Huckabee, Tulsi Gabbard, Kristi Noem, John Solomon, and others. The episode is aimed at listeners who want faith-based commentary tied to provocative media and intelligence topics. Want to Understand and Explain Everything Biblically?

In this special edition of Rosebud, we celebrate the late, great, self-proclaimed cult that is Kenneth Williams - on what would have been his 100th birthday. One of the greatest British entertainers of the twentieth century, Williams was revered for his unique voice, his impeccable timing, his virtuoso storytelling and his brilliant appearances on Parkinson, in the Carry On films, and in series from Hancock's Half Hour to Round the Horne to Beyond our Ken.In this conversation, Gyles talks to the actor David Benson, who has been performing shows about Kenneth Williams for thirty years. Gyles and David talk about their own relationships with Kenneth - and they each give their own unique perspective about this complicated and gifted man. We find out about his childhood, his difficult relationship with his father, and his tortured relationship with his own sexuality. We hear about his working life, and the end of his life. Interwoven with this story are anecdotes from David Benson's life - whose life in some ways mirrors that of Kenneth Williams. This is a fascinating and unusual edition of Rosebud which we hope gives you a fresh insight into a household name.David's show, My Life with Kenneth Williams is currently touring, tickets are available here.Don't forget to subscribe to our YouTube here.

Eyeglasses have become so commonplace we hardly think about them—unless we can't find them. Yet glasses have been controversial throughout history. Roger Bacon pioneered using lenses to see and then spent a decade in a medieval prison for advocating that he could fix" God's creations by improving our eyesight. Even today, people take off their glasses before having their picture taken, despite how necessary they are. A Four-Eyed World: How Glasses Changed the Way We See (Bloomsbury, 2026) is the first book to investigate the experience of wearing glasses and contacts and their role in culture. Dr. David King Dunaway encourages readers to take a look at how they literally see the world through what they wear. He explores everything from the history of deficient eyesight and how glasses are made to portrayals of those who wear glasses in media, the stigma surrounding them, and the future of augmented and virtual reality glasses, highlighting how glasses have shaped, and continue to shape, who we are. Interwoven is Dr. Dunaway's own experience of spending a week without his glasses, which he has used since childhood, to see the world around him and his newfound appreciation for his visual aids. This is the story of how we see the world and how our ability to see things has evolved, ultimately asking: How have two cloudy, quarter-sized discs of crystal or glass originally riveted together become so essential to human existence? Shakespeare famously said eyes are windows to the soul, but what about people who see only by covering theirs with glasses? Readers will find out together through this fascinating and insightful cultural history of one of humanity's greatest inventions. This interview was conducted by Dr. Miranda Melcher whose book focuses on post-conflict military integration, understanding treaty negotiation and implementation in civil war contexts, with qualitative analysis of the Angolan and Mozambican civil wars.

Every now and again, Jeff breaks away from telling his own stories to tell someone else's. In this episode, you'll hear from former Presidents of the USA front man Chris Ballew. Interwoven with music from all three phases of his long career, Chris tells of his early rock star days, an encounter with the biggest pop star in the world, and a close call that might have prevented him from getting the best career advice he ever received.
In this Monday Meeting episode the hosts (with Blake and Cornbread absent) pick up Acts chapter 13, unpacking what it means to be “sent out by the Holy Spirit.” They walk through Paul and Barnabas' missionary start, synagogue-first evangelism, the confrontation with Elymas (Bar-Jesus) and the dramatic blinding that leads Sergius Paulus to believe. The conversation moves into theology and practice: distinctions in how the Holy Spirit spoke in the apostolic era versus today, the challenge of discerning prophetic voice, Paul's name shift, and the broader theme of God reforming our desires to align with His will. Interwoven are personal testimonies and pastoral reflections — a host's recent run-in with law enforcement and subsequent repentance, the conviction that grieving over sin can be evidence of the Spirit, and a powerful account of spiritual warfare and deliverance in a spouse's recovery. They also discuss caution around modern prophetic claims and the practical role of Scripture in discernment.

February 15th, 2026 Pastor Chad McDonald The first chapter of Jonah is one of my favorite passages. Interwoven into the story of Jonah’s fleeing from God’s call is the story of a group of sailors who have an unexpected encounter with God that radically alters their lives. Because of Jonah, they face a storm. At first, they pray to their gods and try everything in their own wisdom and power to get themselves out of this horrible situation. Nothing works. Everything they have relied on in the past; their gods, and their own wisdom and power won’t fix this problem. When they finally confront Jonah, who fears the Lord God of heaven, they become extremely frightened. Deep inside these men, just like us, is a knowledge of God that God has placed there. In our sin and disobedience, we suppress that truth, but it is always there. When we are confronted with storms, the truth often finds its way to the surface. We are confronted with the knowledge of God. What those sailors do next is amazing. They pray to God. They ask for forgiveness and then carry out the judgment of God on Jonah as Jonah had directed them. The storm quits raging. They make it to shore, offer sacrifices to God, and make vows. These men who set out that morning on a routine voyage ended up facing a storm that caused them to run to God, have a personal encounter with Him, and their lives and eternity were changed. Where do you turn when you encounter the storms of life? What idols do you look to? Do you rely upon your own wisdom and strength? When those fail, where do you turn? Do you have an unshakable foundation in your life that carries you through the storms? David had an unshakable foundation in the Lord. The Lord was his good, his delight, his counsel, his refuge, his inheritance, and his eternal joy and hope. This foundation provided him the strength to navigate the storms and even give him confident hope in the face of death. I pray that you will join us as we walk through Psalm 16. It is going to be another great weekend with God’s people. I hope to see you at church! In Christ, Pastor Chad

What unfolds is not just a conversation about Meta's technology—but about grief, truth, and what it means to refuse indifference.The Roberts family shares how Instagram's algorithms repeatedly recommended suicide-related content to their daughter, how duplicate videos remained online long after being reported, and how easily this material continues to circulate today. Sarah breaks down the technical reality: the tools to prevent and remove this content exist—and always have.Interwoven with these devastating realities are moments of grounding, connection, and meaning: reflections on community among bereaved parents, a courthouse vigil outside the Los Angeles trial, and the belief that love—never indifference—is what drives this fight.This episode is raw. It is painful. And it is essential.As the courtroom doors finally open, this conversation captures what's truly on trial: corporate choices, accountability, and the lives of children.Listener discretion advised.
The show opens with a heartfelt tribute to Washington Redskins legend Sonny Jurgensen, as Chris Russell reflects on his impact on the franchise, the city, and generations of fans, revisiting the day Washington retired his iconic No. 9 jersey and the moments that cemented his place in football history. Listeners share personal memories and stories, while former Redskins play-by-play voice Larry Michaels offers behind-the-scenes insight from his time broadcasting alongside Jurgensen, highlighting the man, teammate, and legend. The conversation continues to celebrate Jurgensen's life as a player, broadcaster, and cherished friend, emphasizing his lasting influence on the game and the communities he touched. Interwoven with these tributes, the show transitions to Super Bowl LX analysis, with Russell breaking down key matchups, including New England Patriots quarterback Drake Maye's challenges against the Seattle Seahawks' opportunistic defense, while blending strategic insights with reflections on Jurgensen's character and legacy, creating a show that balances football analysis with honoring one of the sport's true icons.
In this episode I am talking about the Cash–Landrum UFO encounter.Some encounters fade into obscurity; others refuse to be neatly filed away. Cash–Landrum is very much in the latter category. It sits at the intersection of several larger themes the podcast regularly explores: the limits of official transparency, the frailty of the human body in the face of the unknown, and the way extraordinary experiences can fracture the boundary between private memory and public controversy.This happens in the broader historical and cultural context of late-Cold War America, a period when military activity, experimental technology, and deep public mistrust of government secrecy all swirled together. This atmosphere shaped both the interpretation of the case and the response it received, highlighting how easily genuine fear can be dismissed as imagination when it does not fit comfortably within accepted narratives.The episode also considers the unusual role that military presence, real or disputed, has played in shaping public perception of the case. Rather than offering sensational claims, I reflect on why the absence of clear answers can sometimes be more disturbing than the presence of them, and how official silence can deepen mystery rather than resolve it.Interwoven throughout is a broader meditation on why we are drawn to stories like this at all. Is it the possibility that we are not alone? The fear that powerful forces operate beyond democratic accountability? Or something more personal, the idea that an ordinary life can be suddenly disrupted by something utterly inexplicable?The Cash–Landrum case becomes a lens through which to examine how society treats those who report the impossible, and how truth can become entangled with politics, law, and reputation.The episode closes not with conclusions, but with an open question. Whether one views the case as evidence of something beyond our world, a by-product of secret military activity, or a deeply contested mystery, it remains a story that resists closure. For those interested in the deeper currents beneath headline-grabbing sightings, this episode offers a thoughtful, unhurried exploration of a case that continues to challenge our assumptions about power, truth, and the unknown. https://www.pastliveshypnosis.co.uk/https://www.patreon.com/alienufopodcastMy book 'Verified Near Death Exeriences' https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0DXKRGDFP Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

In this episode Drora Arussy speaks with historian Adam S. Ferziger about his latest book, Agents of Change: American Jews and the Transformation of Israeli Judaism (New York University Press, 2025). Ferziger, a professor at Bar-Ilan University and one of the leading voices in the study of modern religious movements, offers a compelling exploration of the transnational interactions that have reshaped Israeli Judaism and redefined the contours of religious Zionism. Agents of Change investigates how ideas, teachers, and institutions moved across the Atlantic between America and Israel, creating new hybrid forms of Jewish religious expression. Ferziger focuses on a group of North American Orthodox rabbis and educators, many of them students of Rabbi Dr. Joseph B. Soloveitchik at Yeshiva University, who immigrated to Israel between 1965 and 1983. These figures—working at the nexus of American Modern Orthodoxy and Israeli religious Zionism—introduced new educational paradigms, reimagined communal norms, and ultimately diversified the ideological landscape of Israeli Orthodoxy. The conversation delves into the shifting meaning of religious Zionism after the 1967 Six-Day War, when a movement once on the margins of Zionist politics emerged as a vital force within Israeli society. Ferziger traces how theological optimism about Israel's redemptive role led to internal debates over nationalism, messianism, and engagement with secular Israeli culture. He also shows how American-trained educators brought new emphases on intellectual openness, structured learning, and ethical responsibility that subtly reconfigured Israeli Torah study and communal life. Interwoven through the dialogue is a broader reflection on transnational educational exchange—how Jewish learning operates as both a local and global phenomenon. Ferziger emphasizes education's transformative potential: students, he argues, do not merely replicate ideas but reinterpret them within new social and cultural frames. This dynamic has fueled the growth of innovative models in contemporary Israel, from advanced programs for women's Torah study to initiatives blending religious learning with military and civic service. Arussy and Ferziger also discuss adjacent developments, including the integration of American Haredim into Israeli society, the emergence of Orthodox feminism as a transnational phenomenon, and the rise of global study networks such as Hadran, founded by Michelle Farber. Through these case studies, Ferziger illustrates how the intellectual and spiritual currents flowing between America and Israel continue to reshape what it means to live a religious Jewish life in a modern state. Throughout the interview, Ferziger reflects on the delicate balance between personal engagement and scholarly distance, underscoring the historian's task of acknowledging one's perspective while maintaining methodological transparency. His approach embodies the spirit of Agents of Change: to view Jewish history not as a story confined within national borders but as a transnational dialogue that continually evolves through exchange, adaptation, and reinterpretation. Agents of Change: American Jews and the Transformation of Israeli Judaism offers an incisive analysis of how transnational networks have redefined modern Jewish identities.

She recalls recurring night terrors marked by paralysis and the presence of a dark, featureless figure standing in her bedroom doorway. Around the same period, she witnesses a UFO. A large metallic object moves silently just above the treeline before disappearing without a trace. Interwoven with these experiences are vivid dreams, episodes of déjà vu, and the gradual emergence of intuitive abilities that Patricia struggles to understand and control. Set against the backdrop of workplace trauma, serious illness, and major personal change, she begins to question whether these moments are isolated incidents or part of a larger pattern.More information on this episode on the podcast website:https://ufochroniclespodcast.com/2026Hidden Cults (Promo)It is a documentary-style podcast that digs deep into the world's most extreme, elusive, and explosive fringe groups.

In this episode Drora Arussy speaks with historian Adam S. Ferziger about his latest book, Agents of Change: American Jews and the Transformation of Israeli Judaism (New York University Press, 2025). Ferziger, a professor at Bar-Ilan University and one of the leading voices in the study of modern religious movements, offers a compelling exploration of the transnational interactions that have reshaped Israeli Judaism and redefined the contours of religious Zionism. Agents of Change investigates how ideas, teachers, and institutions moved across the Atlantic between America and Israel, creating new hybrid forms of Jewish religious expression. Ferziger focuses on a group of North American Orthodox rabbis and educators, many of them students of Rabbi Dr. Joseph B. Soloveitchik at Yeshiva University, who immigrated to Israel between 1965 and 1983. These figures—working at the nexus of American Modern Orthodoxy and Israeli religious Zionism—introduced new educational paradigms, reimagined communal norms, and ultimately diversified the ideological landscape of Israeli Orthodoxy. The conversation delves into the shifting meaning of religious Zionism after the 1967 Six-Day War, when a movement once on the margins of Zionist politics emerged as a vital force within Israeli society. Ferziger traces how theological optimism about Israel's redemptive role led to internal debates over nationalism, messianism, and engagement with secular Israeli culture. He also shows how American-trained educators brought new emphases on intellectual openness, structured learning, and ethical responsibility that subtly reconfigured Israeli Torah study and communal life. Interwoven through the dialogue is a broader reflection on transnational educational exchange—how Jewish learning operates as both a local and global phenomenon. Ferziger emphasizes education's transformative potential: students, he argues, do not merely replicate ideas but reinterpret them within new social and cultural frames. This dynamic has fueled the growth of innovative models in contemporary Israel, from advanced programs for women's Torah study to initiatives blending religious learning with military and civic service. Arussy and Ferziger also discuss adjacent developments, including the integration of American Haredim into Israeli society, the emergence of Orthodox feminism as a transnational phenomenon, and the rise of global study networks such as Hadran, founded by Michelle Farber. Through these case studies, Ferziger illustrates how the intellectual and spiritual currents flowing between America and Israel continue to reshape what it means to live a religious Jewish life in a modern state. Throughout the interview, Ferziger reflects on the delicate balance between personal engagement and scholarly distance, underscoring the historian's task of acknowledging one's perspective while maintaining methodological transparency. His approach embodies the spirit of Agents of Change: to view Jewish history not as a story confined within national borders but as a transnational dialogue that continually evolves through exchange, adaptation, and reinterpretation. Agents of Change: American Jews and the Transformation of Israeli Judaism offers an incisive analysis of how transnational networks have redefined modern Jewish identities.

Gary Faust is an independent journalist known best by his alter ego of "Street Gonzo," who just released an eye opening documentary about the obscene levels of corruption in Puerto Rico, specifically regarding the electrical grid in the aftermath of Hurricane Maria. In this episode, we went deep on how widespread the corruption truly goes; from the ongoing fallout of U.S.‑backed reproductive experiments in Puerto Rico, population control experiments via the government‑run “La Operación” program, shadowy financial boards siphoning billions to Wall Street, crumbling infrastructure, and a cascade of social crises—including infertility, homelessness, and rising crime—that echo across mainland America. Interwoven with personal reflections on shifting from shock‑value street‑gonzo antics to more purposeful documentary film making, the episode offers a raw, on‑the‑ground perspective that challenges viewers to confront how hidden policies shape populations and why exposing these stories matters.Watch Gary's Documentary Here: • EXPOSING the Shadow Government Controlling...

About the Guest: Cynthia Washington: Bridging Societal Gaps Through Leadership, Influence, and Love Cynthia Washington is an accomplished business professional, an award-winning leader, and international influencer whose life and career embodies resilience, vision, and compassion. While studying at Columbia University, she embarked on a socio-economic experiment, which became her reality, highlighting her journey across her social media platforms in hope of sharing her deep commitment to bridge societal gaps and create a better world—one love style, one courageous step at a time. A proud Park City local of more than twenty years, Cynthia's story begins in Southern California, where she grew up between the San Gabriel Mountains and the beaches of Malibu. Her cousins called her “Malibu Barbie,” and her stepbrother called her “Love.” Rooted in her values and guided by her heart, Cynthia's story is not only one of success but of transformation—a legacy driven by her belief that we deserve better. Cynthia leads with integrity and authenticity. She continues to expand her global network of leadership, uniting hearts and minds to inspire lasting, positive change on the right side of history with a framework of faith, family and fun that is built on a foundation of love, kindness, compassion and a hope for peace.

For more than five years, she has stood alongside thousands of high school students—mentoring, volunteering, and serving as a role model for the next generation of innovators. Motivated by her desire to create a better world for her daughter, she embarked on what she lovingly calls her “mom mission”—a service journey dedicated to making her community and the world around her better. During her sabbatical from Silicon Valley into this transformative period, Cynthia launched LVL UP with CW, her brand, leveraging her expertise to help local and global businesses grow, evolve, and thrive. As an international social media influencer, she has used her platform not for fame or recognition, but for global impact, sharing messages of resilience, hope, and empowerment.

Through brand ambassador relationships, social media management, and content creation, Cynthia has amplified voices, strengthened communities, and showcased how influence, when rooted in integrity, is a force for good.

Written during her sabbatical, the respectfully honest memoir captures her life's “grind with grit” story. The cover, graced by her daughter's original artwork, wraps her book with a big thank you hug, encapsulating the power of love that anchors Cynthia's bold voyage. Mind Matters explores her corporate climb and fall, her studies at Columbia University, her travels across the United States with her daughter, the Aloha spirit of Hawaii, and her experiences in Hollywood and the music industry. Interwoven through these chapters are stories of friendship, including her personal connections with cultural icons like Eminem and Kobe Bryant, whose wisdom and creativity shaped what Cynthia calls The Trifecta - a guiding philosophy built on Kobe's Mamba Mentality, the music of Eminem, and her own life's work. Three forces that together drive her vision and her ability to live her socio-economic experiment proving money is a tool and the real power is in the mind. “You can do anything you set your mind to, man” - Eminem Mind Matters: The Story of My Life is available on Amazon and other major online retailers and can also be ordered through local bookstores. The memoir has been nominated for The Eric Hoffer Award for Excellence in Independent Publishing, a recognition of both its literary merit and its heartfelt message of perseverance. Yet, true to her character, Cynthia did not embark on this journey for fame or recognition—she wrote it to give back, to inspire, and to remind readers everywhere that no matter where you come from, with a healthy positive mindset you too can change the trajectory of your life. Beyond her work as an author and international leader, Cynthia lives a simple life. She is a mom, a trailblazer, and an advocate, representing many initiatives that level up society and bridge societal gaps. She turned her pain into her strength and used that as fuel to ignite a movement. Her heart is full of gratitude for all the bands and their aid, as they played a meaningful role in inspiring the Band Aid, a global movement for unity and peace that emerged during a time when the world needed hope most. A true Band Aid.

Welcome to another episode of unstoppable mindset. We're glad you're with us today, wherever you happen to be, hope you're having a good day, and hope that we can inspire you and make this a fun time for you as well. Our guest today is Cynthia Washington. Cynthia describes herself as standing at the intersection of strategy, leadership and an emotional intelligence, and I know that she's going to talk more about that and what what brought her to come to that conclusion, but I've been looking at her information. I think she's got a lot of interesting stuff to talk to us about, and we'll get to it. But for now, Cynthia, welcome to unstoppable mindset. We're glad you're here. Cynthia Washington 02:05 Oh, thank you, Michael. I appreciate being here and spending this time with you today, and I'm looking forward to our conversation. Michael Hingson 02:13 Well, I am as well. Well, why don't we start? I love to start this way with the the early Cynthia, if you will. Cynthia Washington 02:20 Of course, yes, the early Cynthia. I grew up in Pasadena, California, that Southern California, near the Rose Bowl in the San Gabriel Mountains. I attended an all girls private Catholic school for my seventh to 12th grades. I attended also Cal Poly Pomona, where I studied international business and marketing. And I love everything Southern California. I've always had this dream of living in Park City, and I ended up coming here in when was it 2004 so I've been here almost 21 years. Michael Hingson 03:04 So when you were at Cal Poly, did you help build the Rose Parade Float? Cynthia Washington 03:09 I did not build the Rose Parade Float, even though both Cal Poly San Luis Obispo and Cal Poly Pomona do a collaborative effort to build one every year since I grew up with the Rose Parade in my backyard, I had my own special moments with that. I always wanted to be on the Rose Parade court, and so my mom put me into a many different pageants, which helped prepare me and built my confidence so that I could be the person I am today. And I'm forever grateful for that experience like sports, it teaches you about competition, failure and set you up for success. Michael Hingson 04:05 Yes. And again, what did you study at Cal Poly, Cynthia Washington 04:10 international business and marketing? Okay, I originally started in microbiology. I had finished with the intention to become a doctor, and realized I could not stomach blood or needles, and so I quickly changed my major once I made that realization, and I changed my major to English, because I love reading Shakespeare Books. Everything is just so fascinating, fascinating about the English language and its literature. So I studied that for a little while, my father told me that I needed to do something different, and therefore I changed my major to international business and marketing. Michael Hingson 05:00 Hmm, that was different than English by any standard. Yeah. Cynthia Washington 05:06 So it was definitely different. Well, he is a businessman, a banker, and I think you know, for him, it was important for me to kind of follow in those footsteps, which I have, ironically, and I'm forever grateful for him for pushing me in a different direction, I use all three though, the science, the technology, the English and the international business skills in my current role, so, or roles, Michael Hingson 05:37 well, so you graduated. Did you go on and get any advanced degrees or just a bachelor's? Cynthia Washington 05:43 Oh, well, I did. It took me a while, too, though. I recently, in 2022 applied to Columbia University, actually Columbia Business School, and I completed their chief marketing officer executive education program with a Certificate in Business Excellence from Columbia Business School. So yes, I did eventually go back to school. However, I had a few careers in and amongst that along my path and my journey, which helped me have a more well rounded knowledge, yeah, to enter into that up advanced learning. Michael Hingson 06:35 So what did you do after you graduated from Cal Poly? Cynthia Washington 06:40 After I graduated from Cal Poly, I took a gap year, to be honest, and in that gap year, I learned so much about myself. I intersected with Hollywood for a brief moment in time, developed some really great, lasting friendships that have surpassed time. In addition to that, I skied, I snowboard, I learned to surf, and did all the things that I just needed to do as a California girl, yes, it was quite fun and bolted me into the person I am today. With that being said, I once again, had my father reminding me that it was time to get a job, and so I ventured into the management trainee program with enterprise run a car, climbed that corporate ladder, eventually having a territory from Santa Barbara to San Diego that I managed and oversaw a team inside one of our insurance partners headquarters, Which was really amazing opportunity. Then that took me, with a relocation package to Utah with my husband and our newborn baby to come and plant roots. Here he they enterprise was ahead of times in the fact that they wanted to harvest talent from different parts of the United States to strengthen the team they were building in Utah. My husband and I at the time, were part of that strategy, which was really an amazing opportunity, because I was one of a handful women managers that were brought on to the Utah team, and we were able to establish ourselves as influencers and leaders to help grow the women leadership network within Utah and Idaho for enterprise. Michael Hingson 09:14 You said, early I'm sorry. Go ahead. Go ahead. You said early on that you always wanted to go to Park City. Why was that? Sounds like, you know, you got to live your dream. But why was that? Yes. Cynthia Washington 09:26 Well, my father worked a lot, and for him to disconnect from work, we would come and visit Park City or travel to Hawaii. Well, we summer it every summer in Kauai for the month of July. So to contrast that we had time in Park City, Utah before it was what it has become, which was really fascinating. And I loved having the exposure to the Four Seasons and just the. Um, simple life that park city offered was really refreshing, coming from the hustle and bustle of Downtown LA and being in the city, it was just something I dreamt of, and I'm so grateful to have lived that dream, to be here and have to and to have raised my daughter here as well Michael Hingson 10:27 makes sense. And as I said, you now get to live your dream. You're living where you wanted to, and you've been there now for, like, 21 years, and you sound like you haven't changed your mind, you're very happy with it. Cynthia Washington 10:43 Yes, you know, my daughter's graduating college soon, and perhaps maybe I'll think of another location to move to. But for now, this is what I call home. This is where I've planted my my seeds and my roots for our little single mom family. So yeah, it's been great. Michael Hingson 11:06 Well, so you you say that you lived a social, socio economic experiment. Tell me more about what that means. Yes. Cynthia Washington 11:19 So while at Columbia University, I opted to live a socio economic experience to contrast the life that I grew up with. So as I mentioned, I attended Cal Poly, worked with enterprise, had a great career with them. When I came to Utah, I kept that career. After my divorce, I began another career at America first credit union. I saw, I saw that I needed to take a step back from the career world, and so I took a 20 hour teller position as I was figuring out my relationship with my husband and determining our next steps. And so once that was dissolved, I had this great team who saw my leadership skills and helped me climb another corporate ladder. After a few years one of my previous colleagues came to me and asked me to venture into Silicon Valley, doing business in Utah with a team, a Medicare sales team that I managed, and that was quite fascinating, talk about baptism by fire. I learned all things Medicare on the fly, and had a really amazing opportunity with that. And so I have steadily over time, climbed three different corporate ladders, made excellent income, six figures, generously raising my daughter here in Utah, and it has always been in the back of my mind to understand life from a different lens, to understand it with a different perspective. And so as a result, when I was in the Columbia application process, I had become really, really, really sick, deathly sick, I like to say I was on my death bed when I applied to Colombia because I was surviving on water and pressed juices for a little over a month, because I was having some difficulties internally. And so while I had that downtime, I had a lot of time to think, and it was important to me to apply at Columbia. Well, I originally applied to Northwestern and they recommended me to Columbia. And so when I did my Columbia application, it was important for me not to just take the northwestern recommendation, but to also set myself apart. And I thought, well, the socio economic experiment would be great at something I've been thinking about, you know, living life through a different lens. I had the savings built up so that I could do so. And I thought, Yes, I can do this. I can You can do anything you set your mind to. Quote. Eminem, I did. I did that. I lived it. I abandoned my ego, I abandoned all the luxurious items that I had, and lived this truly simple life. And it was quite fascinating, because the more I trusted that process, the more I grew and became still and trusted God's guidance in this journey that I was creating. Fast forward through the social media aspect of everything, I was reminded of some Hollywood friends that I had forgotten about, to be honest. And I don't know how you forget about them, but I did, because I never really spoke about those tender moments I had, and cherish them within my heart and my soul. But I was overcoming this really traumatic experience, a bad, bad relationship that put me into hiding, yet with being at Columbia, living the socio economic experiment and sharing my life through my social media influencer role, my Hollywood friends found me in a time of need, and through this reintroduction, I was reminded of a night I like to coin as dream night, and I call it dream night because that's the night I met Marshall Mathers, who the world knows as Eminem, and he and I were from completely different aspects of life, with completely different perspectives on life, and yet, when we met, we intersected. I was leaving Hollywood, he was coming into it, and we spent together, as silly as it sounds, playing beer pong, thinking through all of the world's problems. And in that conversation, I had mentioned that one day I was going to go to Columbia, and one day I was going to live the socio economic experiment so that I could help the world. And you know, he envisioned his dream of becoming this rap star, and together, we would reunite our forces for good to help elevate the world. And I forgot about this moment in time, to be quite honest, I just continued on a path that I naturally was creating when I was younger, because before meeting Marshall, I had met Kobe Bryant while I was a student graduating Cal Poly, and he was new, upcoming rising superstar into basketball. He had his eye on Vanessa. Her group of friends were very smart, and he knew he needed to knowledge up to get his girl. And so here I was this book smart girl, kind of hanging out in Hollywood. I had worked a job at Staples Center, because I love the Lakers, and it was really cool. I, you know, had me more court side than it did have me working because I gave away more of my tables, and I did actually work to spend time building these relationships with Kobe and the Lakers, which I'm so forever grateful for, and because Kobe recognized my book smart, his spotlight and together, we would have these Kobe talks, which ultimately built the framework for Mama mentality and my only ask of him as I exited Hollywood and that era of my life was that he named mob and mentality, mob and mentality, which he did. And so I, you know, I had. Had Mamba mentality. This up and comer rap star Eminem, who, honestly, I didn't even know was Eminem. For me, he was this guy from Detroit that I met through my friend Travis Barker, who happened to be the drummer blink, 182 but I was so unaware of all these people and who they were. They were, to me, were just people I knew and friends that I had. And, you know, fast forward to where we're at now. It's like we're all living our dreams, and it's really super cool. But the socio economic experiment came from that dream night with Marshall and this whole concept of who and how we wanted to be in this future version of ourselves and I wanted to be this socio economic experiment to understand life through a different lens, especially after meeting him that One night and hearing his life experience, my life experience that you know, it was fascinating to me, like I want, I I want to help people, but to truly help people and bridge those societal gaps that exist, Cynthia Washington 21:16 one has To have a full scope of life through all perspectives, and this opportunity through Columbia, with this experiment, positioned me to really embrace that, and now I am very happy because I think it has helped me appreciate the quality, true quality of life. You know, it's not about the money, it's not about the fame, it's not about the recognition. It's about love and family and caring and nurturing one another Michael Hingson 21:59 with and I would presume that you would say that that's what you learned from the experiment, Cynthia Washington 22:05 yes, yes, absolutely. That's what I learned. You know, here, as I was climbing all these different corporate ladders, I always thought it was about having more you know, having more money, having more things, having a bigger house, a nicer car and all this stuff, but truly abandoning all that stuff allowed me to live more because I appreciated the true moment as A gift, especially from being on my deathbed, you know, to being able to live each day to its fullest, that in and amongst itself, was a gift to me, and learning to be present for my daughter was a present for Me. And so these were all things that socio economic experiment taught me about appreciating life. Michael Hingson 23:07 So where do concepts like gratitude come into all of that? And how is gratitude help keep you centered and kind of moving forward? Cynthia Washington 23:18 Great question through this journey I've been on, I've learned to live each day with a grateful heart. I wake up daily appreciative of the moment, to be alive, regardless of what I have or what accomplishments I've achieved. I truly am thankful for the gift of life. And with that being said, I live in a spirit of Thanksgiving, not because Thanksgiving is on the horizon and the holidays grow near, but because having that gratitude rooted in my soul has helped me Stay focused on my Why stay firm in my beliefs and trust the process every step of the way, living with gratitude has just opened my Heart to the possibilities, and it's been a phenomenal growth experience. The more I give thanks, the more I give, the more I serve, the better I lead, the stronger I am, and the more abundant the blessings are. Are, and it's just truly remarkable to be this vessel for good living life with the spirit of Thanksgiving. Michael Hingson 25:12 If somebody were to ask you, how can you teach me how to really have gratitude and make it a part of my life, what? What kind of advice or what kind of guidance can you give someone to help them learn to be a person who's more grateful or have more gratitude? Wow, um, Cynthia Washington 25:33 if someone is looking to have more gratitude and develops a process in establishing more gratitude. I think it would just be to reframe your focus instead of, oh, I don't have these things, right? That's when I let go of my Louis vuittons my fancy car, and, you know, sold all my really nice clothes that you know, just to have some extra cash to accomplish more of my goals, I let go of all Those materialistic things. And instead of having the mindset of like, Oh, I'm getting rid of these things, I was I saw it as an opportunity. So I guess what I'm saying is to reframe, instead of it being like, I don't have these things, or the woe is me attitude reframe that too. I am blessed with a family, I am blessed with food, I am blessed with shelter, I am blessed with a job that provides me with stability. I am blessed with the person in the mirror who has awoken for this moment in time, awoken, awaked it has. How do you say that? Awakened, that's fine. Awakened, yeah, has awakened in this moment, you know, for another beautiful day, and then after that, reframing of the mindset, focus on the positives and count your blessings. I know that sounds so cliche, but be grateful for this. Yes, be grateful for the things that you do have, the people who love you love is the most durable power that there is, you know, and having that focus on those good things with a positive mindset reframed from the negative, you can easily shape yourself into a person who lives with gratitude and then reciprocate it. You know, as you, as you go about your day, give that gratitude to someone else with a nice smile or a thank you. And people can feel a thank you. People can feel a smile. People can feel that authentic, genuine sense of gratitude in any capacity of life. And that is far more reaching than that negative I don't have I don't have enough. I don't I'm not qualified for this type of negative mindset that weighs people down. Instead, when you live with gratitude, you feel lighter, you feel more alive, and you feel unstoppable. Michael Hingson 29:09 Have you ever read a book by a gentleman named Henry Drummond called Love the greatest thing in the world? Cynthia Washington 29:18 No, but it sounds like something I would enjoy reading. It's Michael Hingson 29:21 more, it's very short, but he he talks all about the fact that love is, in fact, the greatest thing in the most powerful thing in the world, and that that it is something that we all ought to express and deal with a whole lot more than than we do. Was written in, in, I think, the late 1800s I believe. But it is, it is well worth reading. As I said, it's very short. I've read the audio version, and it only takes an hour, so it's not very long book. But it doesn't need Cynthia Washington 29:59 to be well. I will definitely add that to my reading list, because my step brother called me love and it's my nickname, and all the work I have done while on my mom mission after Columbia and over the past few years to help bridge societal gaps, to make the world better for my daughter, her friends and our children and the world ultimately stems from love and gratitude and love are to my focuses. There you go. Michael Hingson 30:46 And as makes a lot of sense, as they should be well. So what have you been doing? Well, so you worked for enterprise, and then you went on, I guess, to do some other things. But what have you been doing since Columbia? Cynthia Washington 31:02 Well, since Columbia, my last class at Columbia was in finance. I studied finance, macro economics. And one more thing I forgot, that's okay. So anyway, well, my last class at Columbia was in finance and Oh, corporate governance, yes. So at Columbia, I studied corporate governance, macroeconomics and finance, while also completing my chief marketing officer executive education requirements and my last class being in finance aligned with Zions Bank, 150 year anniversary of being in business. I thought, wow, this is quite timely. Zions Bank is highly reputable, very respected organization in Utah. And I wanted to work with them while I finished Columbia, and initially I took a role to just kind of understand money real time, working on the front lines across a variety of different branches, and now I still work with them. I am in their retail banking administration department. I work with a great team. I am close to the SVPs, EBPs, and with the branches, our clients. I work on multiple different projects, doing different things, which is so fascinating because I'm in the heartbeat of the business, and it satisfies my my desire to stay relevant and use all my skill sets for good, because I have that ability to touch so many different people and projects in the work that I do at science bank, it allows me the flexibility to maintain my social media influencer status, and both give me the stability to be a good single mom for my daughter who's finishing Up in college. So I'm very grateful for that opportunity, and Colombia opens so many doors. As far as the social media marketing piece of the work I've done since Columbia, I sit on a handful of boards, Big Brothers, Big Sisters. I am on the boulder way forward legislative committee as a chair, and I continue to just do a bunch of philanthropic work, which I. I'm able to promote and highlight within the social media work that I do, so the two work beautifully together, and I am happy just to give back in the capacity I can using my skill sets at a maximized level, Michael Hingson 35:24 okay, well, you also formed your own company, didn't you? Cynthia Washington 35:29 Yes, I did form my own company. It's called level up with C dub, and that business has allowed me to work with amazing brands throughout Park Cities, silicon slopes and globally. It started, yeah, go ahead. No, go ahead. It started because I wanted to level up my community and bridge some gaps that I saw, and then it has grown into something bigger and better in the fact that the work that I'm doing is not only helping local businesses, but it's helping level up our youth, and creating an opportunity for our youth to follow a yellow brick road, so to speak, with my work that I have put forth so that they are more resilient, emotionally intelligent, and have the mental strength To endure this ever changing world. So it's been quite interesting to see how it's shifted from helping businesses mentoring individuals into this new space. Michael Hingson 37:14 And so what does the company do today? What? What you talk about helping youth and so on? Tell me a little bit more about what what you do and how you do it, and is it just you, or do you have other people in the company? Cynthia Washington 37:27 No, it's just me. Just now, just me. Yes, I don't have enough time to invest in it because Zions is my nine to five. I work at a local boutique in town to stay in the heartbeat of town, you know. And then I have the social media stuff that I do. So my calendar is quite full. The level up with C dub work has been word of mouth, and people like you have sought me through various platforms, and I like that. I'm not ready to scale it yet, even though it is scalable, but I like being able to control the the the incoming work and produce high quality products with my brand name attached to it. So right now, it's something that exists. Um, it's something it's a labor of love, and so I'm not quite ready to bring on a team, because it's multi faceted. There's a lot of mentoring, there's a lot of coaching, there's a lot of brand building, and these are all things that I just like to do on my own. Michael Hingson 39:20 So what kind of things do you do you do from a mentoring standpoint, what? What exactly does the company do? Cynthia Washington 39:28 Well, from a mentoring standpoint, I mentor across different platforms. I just received an Impact Award for mentoring girls in the tech realm of silicon slopes, over 1000 Utah high schoolers, actually, 1000s of high school girls have been mentored through this program called she tech, of which I am a part of and. Um, in addition to that, I have middle level professionals who want to level up within their career, who utilize me and my services to help coach them to their next corporate move. And so there's some one on one time. People hire me. I fit them into my schedule. We work together. They call me, you know, hey, I have this moment at work that's happening and I need some guidance. How do I navigate it? You know, sometimes it's easier to talk through that situation with a coach than it is to talk through it with your peer or manager, because you don't want to take away the integrity of the the momentum you've created at work. So I act as at sounding board for a handful of other executive, young executives who are up and coming, rising into their career, and so it's it's multifaceted. Everything's been word of mouth, and I don't have a website. I started with one, I perhaps might go back to creating one. But for now, everything is pretty manageable. I just wear a lot of different hats and work through a lot of different projects, helping many different people across different platforms. Michael Hingson 41:48 How do you keep it all together? Cynthia Washington 41:53 Great question. I use a calendar. I write a lot of notes down. I have a very systematic approach to everything that I have going on. I've learned to say no and to prioritize what's most important. I had an executive coach when I was in Silicon Valley and working in the Medicare realm of business and my executive coach brought so much value into being that sounding board for me and Springboarding My career that giving back in that same capacity is so rewarding for me. I find enjoyment out of it, and the busier I am, the more full I feel my life is. And so right now, I manage it all by writing it down and keeping it organized. You know, in my calendars, thankfully, there's flexibility with all that I do, which allows me to be very agile and giving back in the level up with C dub work that I do. Michael Hingson 43:21 Well, it sounds like when you had access to an executive coach, you were very observant about what they did, so that you could do that same sort of thing and pass it on. Because it sounds like you you took to heart the lessons you learned from that coach. Absolutely. Cynthia Washington 43:40 I had the best executive coach. And you know, when I was on my deathbed, she reached out to me and cared for me even though I was no longer her client. You know, we had become friends through that relationship, and I want to be that person for someone else, and that's why right now, I don't have anyone on my team with me, and I don't have an intention of scaling it At this point in time, because I try to, I to take on the workload with intention and purpose so that I can authentically lead and give back to help others grow and thrive within their realm of life, right? Michael Hingson 44:46 Well, you have written a book. Tell us about that and what what it is, and anything you want to talk about, Cynthia Washington 44:54 yeah, this is a book right here for those who. You are able to see Michael Hingson 45:04 it, and it's called Mind Matters. Cynthia Washington 45:07 Yes, sir, Mind Matters. It's the story of my life. It's a memoir encompasses everything and an easy to read book. It encompasses my travels, my corporate climb and fall, my Columbia education and studies, how I overcame some big hurdles with a grind, with grit, mindset and mentality. My time in Hollywood, what I like to call the trifecta me, Eminem and Kobe, and my work, the music of Eminem and Mama mentality with those three things, you can achieve anything. And what else does it include? Oh, it just has some really fun tales of growing up in California. I and some principles, guiding principles I learned from Columbia University that I wanted to encapsulate into this book and share again to give back to others. It's modestly priced on Amazon. You can buy it wherever books are sold. It's I didn't write it for fame or recognition. I respectfully share stories about my friends in Hollywood. Good and, yeah, it's a fun a fun story. I released it a year ago, October 10, and did my first book launch release party, November 15. And so it's really fun to see it become what it has, and to see its ripple effects throughout society. Michael Hingson 47:32 What did you learn about you from writing the book? Cynthia Washington 47:39 Oh, well, writing a book requires a lot of self discipline. I learned that I have lived a story rich with abundant blessings, and I learned that I have accomplished so much with having That spirit of gratitude. I grind it with grit, resilience, that has catapulted me into the space that I am living in now. However, it was also a very humbling experience as I wrote the book, I it healed me in some ways, because I had been in hiding for a year, and as much As I was sharing my life on social media, I was still afraid to live my life because I was in hiding, and so it helped me heal from that trauma, which is why I have it modestly priced, because if I can help someone else overcome something as traumatic that I have lived by sharing my story and giving hope through my story, then I want to put it out there. I'm not in it for money. I'm in it so I can help our society through this humanitarian effort, you know, and sharing a little bit about me might help someone in their time of need. So, yes, I love. Learned. I learned to heal, I learned to trust the process, and I learned who I am. Michael Hingson 50:08 It makes a lot of sense. And I asked the question, having written three books and learning from all three of them, various things about me, but also just learning to have the discipline and to go into that place where you can create something that hopefully people in the world will appreciate. I think that's that's a really cool thing, and clearly you've done that. Cynthia Washington 50:38 Yes, thank you, and you definitely can understand that, you know, you put your heart and soul into this book of creative mindfulness, and it's truly rewarding to share it with other people. And I like to say my books wrapped with my daughter's big thank you hug, because it's wrapped in her artwork that she drew, that I have framed, and I thought it was a perfect cover for it. And it's it's really a blessing to have gone through the trauma, live through it, and for her to see this work of art, share my story and help others and her. Thank you. Hug around it is even a bigger form of love Michael Hingson 51:44 you have won, and you mentioned it earlier, a she Peck she tech champion Impact Award. Tell us about that award, what it is, and a little bit more about why you won one and so on. Cynthia Washington 51:58 Yes, so while at Columbia, I did the level up with CW work, I worked with Zions Bank, had the social media influencer role, and I aligned with a lot of great women and businesses throughout Park City, Salt Lake and silicon slopes, those women became friends and she Tech was founded by one of my friends, and I became involved in that about five years ago, as a mentor, a role model, an influencer, helping young girls learn that there is opportunity in The tech space. Technology space for women and girls learning and their worth, their their value and creating opportunities for them. And so through the social media aspect, I have been able to share to share the great work of she tech and women tech Council and some other brands that I've aligned with to help young girls see other women leaders actively working and living in these different capacities. So all of the work that I do goes hand in hand with this mentoring space and helping our youth see their potential. Chi Tech, I was one of 30 who received that award this year, I was humbly honored to be a recipient of the award. I knew the work I was doing was focused on my love to change the world for my daughter and make the world a better place for her, her friends and ultimately, all children. I just didn't realize how far reaching my impact was until I received the email notifying me of this. Impact Award, and when I stood on stage with all these other champions, champions, champion champions, championing change and this trajectory of our world. It just reinforced all of the work I have done and the profound impact it's having on our youth today, and it's remarkable to like. I can't, I can't express the depth it has, because it's so far reaching, and it's something beyond my wildest dreams that I've created through my work, through all these different intersections of strategic marketing and social media brand work and leading by Cynthia Washington 56:16 good and using my influence for good. And it's just truly amazing to see that I've helped 1000s of teenage girls understand their potential, their value and their worth, knowing that there's so many different possibilities in the tech space for them to learn, grow and do Michael Hingson 56:47 well, congratulations on winning the award. That's a that's a cool thing, and obviously you're making a big difference. Cynthia Washington 56:57 Thank you so much. I'm still so humbled, and I keep having to ground myself because I never expected to be in this moment. I simply was a mom on a mission to change the trajectory for my daughter, and receiving this award was something I never expected, and I keep ground, grounding myself, because I just I'm so humbly honored to have received it, and to have come to this, this elevated level of where I'm at in my current life, by giving up everything, I became something so much bigger and better than I ever expected or or planned for myself, and it's profound to me, and I just have to constantly ground myself and remind myself like that it's it's okay to be here. Michael Hingson 58:17 That's what gratitude can do, and that's what gratitude obviously does for you, because you you clearly exhibit a lot of gratitude in in all that you say and all that you do. And I think that's extremely important. People really should think a little bit more about gratitude than they then they typically do. But you know, it is something that that clearly you have put in the forefront of of your being. You do a lot with social media. And tell me a little bit more about about that as we move forward here and get close to wrapping up. Cynthia Washington 58:57 Well, yes, I do do a lot on social media, but before I answer that question, you found me through social media, and I want you to share a little bit about how you discovered me knowing that you're unable to see a lot of the content I create. So how were you able to find me? And then I'll answer that question. Tell me what intrigued you Michael Hingson 59:31 when you say not see the content, like, What do you mean? Cynthia Washington 59:36 Well, you have a blindness, vision impairment, correct, Michael Hingson 59:46 not an impairment, but that's okay, but, but what is it that I don't see exactly? Cynthia Washington 59:52 How do you see my social media content for you to be able to find. Michael Hingson 1:00:00 I use a piece of software that verbalizes whatever comes across the computer screen, so hearing the the text, listening to what your profile on LinkedIn says about you and so on, is all just as straightforward for me as it is for you, and to describe that in great detail would be like me asking you how you do what you do. It's what we grow up learning. The reality is, blindness isn't the problem. That's why I said it's not an impairment, because people always think about blindness as a visual impairment. Well, visually, I'm not different because I'm blind and I'm not impaired because I am blind, if, if the reality is impairment has nothing to do with it, and we really need to get away from thinking that someone is less than someone else because they may not have the same senses that that we do. And while I don't necessarily have eyesight, I have other gifts that I've learned to maximize, and probably the greatest gift of all, is that I don't happen to be light dependent like you are. The reality is that for you, when there's a power failure or something that causes all the lights and everything to go out, you scramble looking for an iPhone or a smartphone or a flashlight or something to bring light in, because we spent a lot of time bringing light on demand. To you ever since the light bulb was invented, I don't have that problem. The power goes out, doesn't bother me a bit. The reality is we've got to get away from this idea of thing that somebody is impaired because they don't have some things that we do. There are a lot of ways to get information, and eyesight is only one of them. Cynthia Washington 1:01:48 I love that, and that's exactly why I wanted you to explain that, because I think that's super important as we discuss unstoppable mindset. I think that's a critical necessity for society to learn and to know, and because you were able to find me using these great resources that you have and the work I'm putting forth intrigued you to bring me into this meeting with you. So I am, again, so grateful that we have this opportunity to collaborate in this space, bringing both our good works together to Oh, help level up awareness that there are no limits. We are unstoppable. Glasses shattering everywhere because of people like you and me who are doing this good work to change the trajectory of the world, and social media for me, has given me the opportunity to do what you do in this podcast. Michael Hingson 1:03:14 If you want people to be able to reach out to you and interact with you, how best can they do that Cynthia Washington 1:03:22 the like you did through LinkedIn is great. That's how I do receive most of my work is through LinkedIn. People find me there and will message me through then, LinkedIn, what? Michael Hingson 1:03:43 What's your LinkedIn name or your house? Cynthia Washington 1:03:47 Cynthia Washington. Okay, that's easy, yes. Cynthia Washington, Park City, Salt Lake City, will get you to me. Another outlet is through Instagram. I'm little bit more hesitant to reply to the direct messages on Instagram. I do try to filter a lot of my content and screen things. So I do trust LinkedIn a little bit more. As far as the messaging component is concerned, also, I have provided you with my email which you're happy I'm happy for you to share. Okay, so any of those three means will get you connected to me. I do not have a website. As I said, everything is organic, authentic and word of mouth. My Plate is really full, and so I like to be selective of the projects I bring on in hopes that they give back to society in one way or another. Lacher, I'm not doing it to chase every deal or get a bunch of free product. I do it with a very intentional Spirit giving back with gratitude that karmic effect goes a long way well. Michael Hingson 1:05:18 I hope people will reach out. You clearly have a lot to offer, and I think you've you've given us a lot to think about today, which I appreciate a great deal.

Send us a texthe conversation moves through a fast, chaotic blend of social commentary, sexual humor, political cynicism, and personal reflection. It begins with discussion about the resurgence of collectible items and how AI and capitalism may force people back into simpler, more human activities. That leads into a critique of money, crypto, billionaires, and the concept that nearly everything in modern society is essentially fake. The dialogue expands into global politics—sanctions, coups, oil interests, and the U.S. acting as an unchecked global power.From there, the tone shifts into absurd humor about farming, insemination, and how people who fist cows often hold conservative anti-LGBT views. The conversation spirals into kink culture: leather scenes, pups, masks, fetishes, and why certain communities exist. This includes uncomfortable, explicit questions about fisting, bodily functions, sexual progression, and why some people enjoy extreme acts.The discussion then swerves to everyday life: talking to dogs like children, dogs' pack behavior, the contrast with aloof cats, and the bizarre reality of pets living indoors. Food prices, inflation, and the shrinking size of groceries become a point of frustration. The conversation returns to personal growth, aging, creative phases, past podcast eras, and how both hosts have changed since earlier episodes. Nostalgia for past creative periods emerges, along with recognition of personal evolution.Interwoven is a thread about filmmaking: the beginning of a documentary project, motivations behind solo travel, the meta-process of documenting the making of a documentary, and how it ties to self-reflection. The dialogue continues into aging, nightlife shifting into quiet routines, and the strange dissonance between adult responsibilities and the outrageous conversations they still have.Overall, the transcript jumps from existential dread to explicit gay sexual comedy, from geopolitical collapse to pet parenting, from leather festivals to the price of soup—all narrated with unfiltered honesty, sarcasm, and vulgar humor.Support the showAs always you can write us at nowellpodcast@gmail.com or call us at (614) 721-5336 and tell us your Not Wells of the week InstagramTwitterBobby's Only FansHelp us continue to grow and create amazing content, like a live tour or just help fund some new headphones when needed.

In this episode of the Jewish Inspiration Podcast, Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe delves into day 101 of his series on "Orchis Tzadikim" (Ways of the Righteous), focusing on the trait of remembrance (Zechira) as a vessel for all mitzvot and Torah. He connects it to biblical references like Tzitzit and Tefillin, which serve as reminders to fulfill God's commandments. Rabbi Wolbe highlights the "Six Constant Mitzvos" from Rabbi Yitzchak Berkowitz's teachings—faith in God, rejecting other gods, God's oneness, love and fear of God, and avoiding stray thoughts—as remembrances achievable every moment. He introduces 30 daily remembrances to foster divine favor but details only the first four: God's creation of humanity from nothing, granting health, bestowing wisdom, and providing the Torah as a life manual. Interwoven with personal stories, such as appreciating the present moment and gratitude for life's gifts, the episode emphasizes constant thankfulness to God for existence, health, intellect, and spiritual guidance.Recorded at TORCH Centre in the Levin Family Studios (B) to a live audience on March 24, 2025, in Houston, Texas.Released as Podcast on October 31, 2025_____________This series on Orchos Tzadikim/Ways of the Righteous is produced in partnership with Hachzek.Join the revolution of daily Mussar study at hachzek.com.We are using the Treasure of Life edition of the Orchos Tzadikkim (Published by Feldheim)_____________Listen, Subscribe & Share: Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/jewish-inspiration-podcast-rabbi-aryeh-wolbe/id1476610783Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/4r0KfjMzmCNQbiNaZBCSU7) to stay inspired!

TV producer Jodi Tovay caught a standup comedy set in Scotland that took a dark and captivating turn. Interwoven with his earnest jokes, comedian Edd Hedges told the terrifying story of how a killer struck his neighborhood - then attempted to get into his house. Years later Tovay convinced Hedges to further explore the crime that continued to haunt him. And as she learned more about what happened that night in 2015, and Hedge's place in it, she wondered how much of the entertainer's story is based in truth.From Tenderfoot TV and iHeartPodcasts comes “Wisecrack.” Listeners hear Hedges tell his story of mirth and murder live on stage, before the pair dig deeper into the causes behind the violence his family escaped from. With its “Baby Reindeer” echos, the series explores unreliable memories, criminal behavior, and lingering trauma. OUR SPOILER-FREE REVIEWS OF "WISECRACK" BEGIN IN THE FINAL 13 MINUTES OF THE EPISODE.
