Season 6, Episode 21: 24th Gene Key – From Addiction to Silence In this episode of My Love of Life Energy, Anna Scott is joined by her Exquisite Being partner, Molly Lynch, for a contemplative journey into the 24th Gene Key. Together, they explore the emotional and energetic movement from the shadow of Addiction, through the inventive power of Invention, to the still, luminous grace of Silence. Shadow: Addiction — the looping patterns that pull us away from the present moment. Gift: Invention — how creativity arises when we stop resisting our inner experience. Siddhi: Silence — the sacred space where all transformation occurs. This is a tender, vulnerable exploration of what it means to listen deeply to life, to ourselves, and to the space in between thoughts.

Télévision, téléphone, train, électricité… Bien des inventions aujourd'hui banales ont, à leur naissance, suscité la peur, la méfiance, voire le rejet. Accusées de rendre bêtes, malades ou immorales, elles illustrent à quel point chaque révolution technique commence souvent par déranger nos repères.

Idea: A storage pocket grafted into your body and made out of your skin, so you can, for example, store things while in the shower. Also: brainstorming where on your body to put a pocket; it should look more like a pocket and less like a sphincter; women storing things between their breasts; magicians who stab needles through their arms might know good places to put skin pockets; maybe you could graft muscles into the skin pocket so you can hold the pocket closed and also ensnare pickpocketers Jeff Teed (instagram.com/jeffteed23 instagram.com/say_what_open_mic_at_hearsay) Jack Cuncannan (instagram.com/jackc_comedy) Tom Walma (https://creativitywasted.com/creativitywasted twitch.tv/gameymcfitness) This podcast is part of Planet Ant Podcasts (https://planetant.com) This podcast is powered by Pinecast.

Brandon Baca joins WRP for the first time! Brandon, Sarah, Evan, and Ken as we look at the week's headlines from a Christian worldview. We look at the conflict between Israel and Iran, whether pastors should protest ICE deportations, how AI is enabling cheating at university, and a strange poll about which inventions have hurt children the most. Also, the big win at the Supreme Court (if you're not pro-Trans), and the world's smartest man confessing Christ.

Corey and the crew talk about a few different off-the-wall topics as it's a fun Friday!

Shorts, maillots et slips de bain à fleurs ou à rayures : sur les plages, l'été, c'est un vrai défilé de mode ! Et quel plaisir de pouvoir nager sans être gêné par ses vêtements. Mais cela n'a pas toujours été le cas. Julien te raconte l'histoire des “tenues de baignade”… à écouter avant de courir te baigner.Les premiers maillots de bainAu 19e siècle, tout est fait pour cacher le corps. Les hommes se couvrent le torse, et portent des manches longues pour aller dans l'eau. Les femmes sont en jupe. On parle de “tenues de baignade”… Pas du tout pratique !Au début du 20e siècle, les premiers véritables maillots de bain apparaissent. Les hommes portent des combinaisons une pièce, mais ils ont le droit de montrer leurs mollets et leurs bras. Les femmes doivent,elles, cacher leurs formes : elles se baignent en jupe et pantalon long, avec des manches longues. Mais Annette Kellermann, une jeune Australienne, va bousculer les habitudes.Une tenue adaptée aux compétitions de natationAu tout début des années 1900, Annette Kellermann est championne de natation. Elle pratique ce sport depuis l'âge de 5 ans et participe à des courses où elle rivalise avec les hommes. Mais ses vêtements de nage l'empêchent d'aller aussi vite que les hommes. Elle décide de se confectionner une tenue plus adaptée. Son maillot a des manches très courtes qui s'arrêtent aux épaules. Il dévoile ses bras, ses jambes et son corps semble moulé dans le tissu.En 1907, elle se présente à une course dans cette tenue, à Boston, aux États-Unis. Elle ose montrer ses bras et ses formes… Annette est arrêtée, et jugée devant un tribunal pour indécence ! Elle est finalement autorisée à utiliser sa tenue, mais elle doit porter une robe jusqu'au dernier moment avant d'entrer dans l'eau. Annette Kellermann devient vite un modèle ! Elle inspire de nombreuses femmes qui se mettent à porter ces nouveaux maillots.Des maillots de bain de plus en plus courtsPetit à petit, le maillot de bain “rétrécit”. Dans les années 1930, la mode est au maillot sans manches, la culotte s'arrêtant au-dessus du genou. Puis on commence à voir apparaître les maillots deux pièces : une culotte haute et un soutien-gorge adaptés à la nage. Les hommes, eux, se mettent à nager en slip de bain, torse nu.Dans les années 1970, 1980, 1990 certaines femmes, pour montrer qu'elles ont les mêmes droits que les hommes, font la même chose et ne mettent pas de haut de maillot.

What is the Caribbean?What it is not:Not simply “a group of islands surrounded by the Caribbean Sea.”That colonial compass would erase Belize, Guyana, Suriname, and French Guiana.The Caribbean is not just geography — it's history, identity, and ideology.A Construct, An Invention:Ian Meeks and Norman Girvan argue the Caribbean is an invention, molded by the European gaze since 1492.The so-called “discovery” was really colonial construction — cultural erasure dressed as exploration.The Socio-Political Caribbean:Social scientists ask: In whose interest is society designed?Whose narrative dominates?Often, the Caribbean's story has been told through the lens of its colonizers — not its people.Economic Caribbean – A Dependent Capitalist Model:According to Neoliberalism (2021) and the "Washington Consensus", Caribbean economies were shaped to serve external interests.Ramesh Ramsaran: Structural Adjustment transferred power from local to global hands — a feature of life in the Global South.These are the legacies of debt, austerity, and manufactured dependency.Global South vs Global North:New language, same old hierarchies.The “Global South” replaces “Third World” — a more palatable term, but still denotes marginalization.The Problem of the Caribbean is the Problem of the Black and Brown PositionWherever Black or Brown bodies are found — so too is systemic exclusion.Not due to essence, but to constructed inferiority.Colonization as Psychological Violence:Fanon: Colonization turns man against himself.Du Bois: The Black soul peers through a veil, always asking: “Am I enough?”Morrison: We are told to strive toward whiteness — only to find we can never truly arrive.Depersonalization & Loss of Agency:Colonialism stripped humanity. The enslaved weren't just shackled in body — but in being.This leads to malady: acting against our own interests.Afrocentricity vs Eurocentricity:Afrocentricity: a way of seeing.Eurocentricity: the only way of seeing.The former offers liberation. The latter demands assimilation.Diaspora Realities:Caribbean immigrants are often seen as threats cloaked in exoticism — "two sharp teeth," as you wrote.Their potential is feared, their labor exploited.Kenneth Clark's “Dark Ghettoes”:Ghettoes aren't just places — they are conditions.Whether in Philly or Kingston, Harlem or Port of Spain, these spaces reflect economic colonization.Externally: Poor housing, crime, disease.Internally: Apathy, self-loathing, compensatory bravado.Postcolonial ≠ Post-ColonizationFanon in Black Skin, White Masks: Black and White locked in a tragic performance — each role scripted by Empire.In Wretched of the Earth: Freedom is radical; it requires rupture, not reform.The Paradox of Independence:Haiti and Cuba led revolutions — and were punished for their audacity.Independence does not equal inclusion.Homi Bhabha's Lens:The center is the mainstream — the dominant culture, the "norm."The periphery is where African spirituality, literature, and lifeways have been cast.In the Caribbean, this leads to self-scorn: bleaching skin, abandoning roots, ridiculing Revivalists or Rastafari.Advocating a position of pre-colonial victory and agency.Reframes the narrative of discovery with African presence before 1492.CLR James (a Trini) told the story of Haitian revolutionaries, but through a European framework.His education gave him tools, but not always the right lens.We question: Was this truly “history from below?”We must not be content with being “included” in someone else's story.We must write our own — in our tongues, through our eyes, from our depths.As Toni Morrison said: “Definitions belong to the definers, not the defined.”Let us reclaim that power.

He usually writes about concepts that weave together modern understandings of time, the human, and the body. He is the author or co-author of several books, with the latest one being The Invention of Prehistory: Empire, Violence, and Our Obsession with Human Origins. In this episode, we focus on The Invention of Prehistory. We start by talking about how people got interested in prehistory, what “invention” means in this case, what our understanding of the past is shaped by, and the example of the Neanderthals. We discuss European colonization, and concepts like “savage” and “civilization”; indigenous peoples and the first humans; “human nature” and political debates between socialists and capitalists; and eugenics and Nazism. We talk about the impact of popular books, like Yuval Harari's Sapiens, and claims about how we should live our present lives. Finally, we discuss whether there is any problem with anthropologists studying our past.--A HUGE THANK YOU TO MY PATRONS/SUPPORTERS: PER HELGE LARSEN, JERRY MULLER, BERNARDO SEIXAS, ADAM KESSEL, MATTHEW WHITINGBIRD, ARNAUD WOLFF, TIM HOLLOSY, HENRIK AHLENIUS, FILIP FORS CONNOLLY, ROBERT WINDHAGER, RUI INACIO, ZOOP, MARCO NEVES, COLIN HOLBROOK, PHIL KAVANAGH, SAMUEL ANDREEFF, FRANCIS FORDE, TIAGO NUNES, FERGAL CUSSEN, HAL HERZOG, NUNO MACHADO, JONATHAN LEIBRANT, JOÃO LINHARES, STANTON T, SAMUEL CORREA, ERIK HAINES, MARK SMITH, JOÃO EIRA, TOM HUMMEL, SARDUS FRANCE, DAVID SLOAN WILSON, YACILA DEZA-ARAUJO, ROMAIN ROCH, DIEGO LONDOÑO CORREA, YANICK PUNTER, CHARLOTTE BLEASE, NICOLE BARBARO, ADAM HUNT, PAWEL OSTASZEWSKI, NELLEKE BAK, GUY MADISON, GARY G HELLMANN, SAIMA AFZAL, ADRIAN JAEGGI, PAULO TOLENTINO, JOÃO BARBOSA, JULIAN PRICE, HEDIN BRØNNER, DOUGLAS FRY, FRANCA BORTOLOTTI, GABRIEL PONS CORTÈS, URSULA LITZCKE, SCOTT, ZACHARY FISH, TIM DUFFY, SUNNY SMITH, JON WISMAN, WILLIAM BUCKNER, PAUL-GEORGE ARNAUD, LUKE GLOWACKI, GEORGIOS THEOPHANOUS, CHRIS WILLIAMSON, PETER WOLOSZYN, DAVID WILLIAMS, DIOGO COSTA, ALEX CHAU, AMAURI MARTÍNEZ, CORALIE CHEVALLIER, BANGALORE ATHEISTS, LARRY D.

We live in a world of invention but sometimes stories fail to explain that inventors work from ideas that were already in place.

In episode 89 of the Mind Shift Podcast, Aaron McManus joins his father, Erwin Raphael McManus, to discuss the release of two powerful podcast episodes, including a now-viral clip with Tim Ross. The episode, originally recorded at the Mosaic Conference in Los Angeles, sparked massive engagement online, drawing millions of views and hundreds of thousands of interactions. Aaron reflects on the confusion surrounding its release timing, while Erwin offers a behind-the-scenes look at the discussion's origins. The episode sets the tone for a thought-provoking exploration of theology, mythology, and the radical act of questioning long-held assumptions.The viral clip, centered on the provocative question “Did Eve Sin?”, ignited waves of online dialogue. Erwin dives into the story's complexity, challenging how traditional interpretations may have oversimplified it. Aaron highlights how the clip's traction signals a cultural appetite for deeper, less dogmatic conversations around faith. They tease another clip in which they question whether humans may have once possessed capabilities like flight or aquatic life, referencing the biblical mandate to rule over land, sea, and sky. These conversations push the boundaries of conventional theological thinking, inviting listeners to engage their imaginations.Building on these themes, Erwin and Aaron speculate on the human condition before the biblical fall. Erwin suggests that stories like Aquaman or Superman might be more than fiction—they could be remnants of ancient memory. The act of Adam naming every animal becomes a focal point for exploring humanity's pre-fall brilliance and creative authority. Erwin stresses that exploring such possibilities is not heretical but deeply biblical when approached with humility and curiosity. Rather than seeking to prove mythologies, he emphasizes the need to rediscover wonder in the scriptural narrative.A core tension in the conversation is between systematic theology and biblical theology. Erwin critiques systematic theology as a structure of invented truths that can exclude or delegitimize those who don't fit its mold. In contrast, biblical theology is framed as a pursuit of discovered truth—a lived relationship with God that transcends doctrinal rigidity. They share stories of theological gatekeeping and reflect on how some religious systems elevate intellectual frameworks over genuine spiritual transformation. Erwin advocates for a theology that starts with love and leads to relationship, not just belief.The episode culminates in a passionate defense of free will as essential to love and God's character. Erwin challenges deterministic frameworks like Calvinism, arguing that a God who orchestrates everything for His own glory alone is not consistent with the radical love of Jesus. He expresses a deep trust in the truth of scripture but resists the layers of orthodoxy that have ossified around it. As Aaron reads a quote about the difference between belief and truth, Erwin affirms that Jesus is the truth he builds his life on—not a theory, but a living foundation that invites constant growth, humility, and the freedom to ask better questions.
