Hollywood has never shied away from portraying obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) — but it often gets it wrong. Typically, OCD is reduced to a punchline, a quirky habit, or a stereotype about neatness and handwashing. In this episode, TV & movie actor Rachel Alig and award-winning filmmaker Sam Sabawi take us behind the scenes of their acclaimed short film “For All I Know” to show how OCD can — and should — be portrayed with truth and compassion. Sam, who lives with OCD, explains why lazy writing has distorted public understanding and how he used his lived experience to create an authentic story. Rachel shares the emotional depth required to embody a character with OCD, and how she avoided the clichés that Hollywood often leans on. Together, they reveal how real therapy techniques — especially exposure and response prevention (ERP) — were brought into the film to highlight the messy, ongoing reality of recovery. Listener takeaways: how Hollywood depictions have shaped public misconceptions of OCD and why the process of authentically portraying OCD on screen matters what OCD actually is — and isn't why ERP therapy is the gold standard for treatment This is a rare insider look at mental illness through the eyes of two industry leaders determined to change how we see OCD. Listen now! Sam and Rachel's Award-Winning Short Film About OCD, For All I Know, is available on YouTube now. (Viewing Link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-vwk4UPHKp0) Our guest, Sam Sabawi, is a two-time Emmy-nominated filmmaker whose work spans narrative fiction, documentary, and unscripted formats. A five-time Telly Award winner and two-time Anthem Gold recipient, Sabawi brings over a decade of experience in visual storytelling across scripted film, development, and branded content. His recent short film For All I Know explores the interior landscape of OCD to externalize intrusive thoughts. The film is currently on its festival circuit. Our guest, Rachel Alig, is quickly establishing herself as a dynamic force in both comedy and drama, with a growing list of standout performances across film, television, and commercial work. With over a decade of experience, she has shared the screen with acclaimed talent including John Magaro (The Big Short, PastLives, Carol), Lou Diamond Phillips, Nick Jonas, Jason Biggs, Rob Riggle, and Master P. Her most recent film, OMAHA—starring John Magaro—premiered at the 2025 Sundance Film Festival in the prestigious U.S. Dramatic Competition category and was acquired by Greenwich Entertainment for a theatrical release in early 2026.

Before Fortnite and Call of Duty ruled the scene, the US Army quietly shaped the early 2000s with a wildly popular, free shooter designed to excite young people about enlisting.Hidden Levels is a production of 99% Invisible and WBUR's Endless Thread.

For decades, the U.S. Army has been on edge about recruitment, hitting its goals for a few years, only to miss them again. As part of their strategy to combat recruiting concerns, the Army has turned its focus online: to the world of gaming and competitive eSports. With nearly 80% of Americans between the ages of 13 and 28 playing video games weekly, the Army has identified this community as a vital demographic for potential recruits. The core goal of this outreach is to use gaming as an entry point, which is nothing new — the precedent was set decades ago. With the end of the draft in 1973, the U.S. Army found itself faced with new recruitment challenges. Campaigns like the “Be All You Can Be” ads of the 80s were popular and led to short-term bumps in recruitment, but they didn't last. The Army failed to meet its recruitment goals in 1998. It failed again in 1999. In response, a U.S. Army lieutenant colonel spearheaded the development of America's Army, a free-to-play first-person shooter launched in 2002. The game was designed to offer a "virtual test drive" of Army life. Before the players could enter the full combat portion of the game, they were required to complete certain training modules covering topics like physical fitness and weapons use. The game was designed to reflect the Army's values and structure. And despite the game's promise to represent the true Army experience, the relatively limited depiction of gore and gruesome violence raised concern from some critics. Other critics, including anti-war activists and the ACLU, condemned the project for "gamifying war" and serving as propaganda that targeted impressionable youth by design. America's Army became a significant cultural and recruiting success, accumulating over 1.5 million downloads in its first month and eventually earning the title of the "Most Downloaded War Video Game" from Guinness World Records with more than 42.5 million downloads. After a two-decade run, the U.S. Army officially shuttered America's Army. The way Americans played video games had changed since the game launched in the early 2000s, and the Army began to pivot its approach to gaming to leverage the success of existing games and opportunities posed by the increasingly popular competitive eSports scene. Today, the Army eSports team competes in commercial titles like Rocket League, Call of Duty, and Valorant, continuing its outreach. This modern presence remains contentious — critics continue to question the ethics of military outreach in spaces that include children.

What if the addiction stealing your focus doesn't look like one?I thought I'd broken free from my phone — no social media, no endless scrolling. But in Bali, I discovered a different kind of addiction… one that hides behind productivity, messages, and staying “connected.”In this short, honest episode, I share the quiet moment that made me realize how easily my attention was being pulled away — and the small experiment that started bringing my creativity and calm back.If you've ever felt scattered, restless, or caught in constant doing, this might be the reminder you didn't know you needed.

Welcome to another episode of ADHD-ish! In this thought-provoking conversation, host Diann Wingert is joined by neurodivergent leadership coach Ron Sosa for an in-depth conversation on neurodiversity, intersectionality, and authenticity. Together, they explore the complex ways our overlapping identities, including neurodivergence, sexuality, race, and disability, shape how we experience the world and present ourselves to others. Ron shares his personal journey navigating multiple identities, including being a white, gay, hard-of-hearing man with both ADHD and autism, and opens up about the nuanced decisions behind which identities he chooses to “lead with” in different settings.The episode delves into real-life challenges like masking, passing, and code-switching, examining how these adaptive behaviors can be both empowering and exhausting—depending on whether they're chosen or enforced out of necessity. Diann and Ron discuss the complicated layer of “family secrets”, the constant mental calculations neurodivergent and marginalized individuals make around safety and acceptance, and offer powerful insights about reclaiming agency in how we self-identify. What you'll hear in this episode:How Identities Stack and Interact: Ron walks us through how he thinks about and organizes his different identities—ADHD, autistic, white male, gay, and hard of hearing—and the personal and social factors that influence which aspects he shares in different situations.Navigating Safety and Disclosure: The conversation highlights the calculation involved in deciding which identity to disclose, considering factors like safety, context, and anticipated reactions from others.Invisible and Visible Disabilities: Ron shares honest experiences about masking, particularly with his hearing impairment, and the additional challenges posed by disabilities that are not immediately visible.Masking as Tool vs. Survival Mechanism: Diann and Ron discuss the difference between masking as a conscious, empowering choice and masking as a depleting necessity, including how the need to “pass” or “camouflage” can both protect and exhaust someone with multiple marginalized identities.Passing, Code-Switching, and Camouflage: The benefits and drawbacks of being able to “pass” in certain environments, including the emotional toll and moments of empowerment when one can choose how and when to reveal their authentic self.Guest Bio:Ron Sosa is a neurodivergent, gay, hard-of-hearing leader who has walked unconventional paths through veterinary medicine, coaching, and leadership development. From the client service desk to executive roles, his story isn't linear, and that's a testament to resilience, reinvention, and radical empathy.Too many leaders feel like they're wearing a mask and are exhausted from trying to fit into outdated expectations. They're stuck managing overwhelm, struggling with conflict, and questioning whether they belong in leadership at all. They are not broken; the system is. Ron helps leaders unlearn what leadership “should” look like and rebuild from a place of clarity, confidence, and alignment with their neurotype, values, and rhythm through Syn-APT Neuroinclusive Leadership.Find Ron Sosa online:Website - LinkedIn Mentioned during the episode:Elizabeth Kubler-Ross' Stages of Grief...

In this episode of SpaceTime, we delve into the intriguing world of near-Earth asteroids, the evolution of our universe, and the remarkable discovery of a rogue planet experiencing unprecedented growth.Invisible Asteroids Near Venus: A Hidden ThreatRecent computer simulations published in the journal Astronomy and Astrophysics have raised alarms about a population of near-Earth asteroids that remain undetectable due to their proximity to Venus. These Venusian co-orbital asteroids, which share an orbital resonance with Venus, could pose a collision risk to Earth within a few thousand years. The study's lead author, Valerio Carumba, explains the challenges of observing these asteroids, as they are obscured by the Sun's glare. With a size of around 300 metres, these asteroids could create impact craters several kilometres wide, highlighting the need for dedicated space missions to monitor this potential threat.The Universe's Evolution: New Insights from the Epoch of ReionizationAstronomers have made significant strides in understanding the universe's early days, revealing that it was warmer than previously thought before the first stars ignited. Research based on observations from the Murchison Wide Field Array in Western Australia indicates that the gas between galaxies was heated around 800 million years after the Big Bang, contradicting earlier theories of a cold universe. This heating, likely driven by early X-ray sources, set the stage for the epoch of reionization, which transformed the cosmos from opaque to transparent, allowing light to travel freely.A Richie Planet's Remarkable Growth SpurtIn a groundbreaking discovery, astronomers have identified a rogue planet, catalogued as char 11 oh 7 minus 7626, that is not bound to any star and is growing at an astonishing rate of 6 billion tonnes of gas and dust per second. Located approximately 600 light years away in the constellation Chameleon, this planet challenges conventional notions of planetary stability. Observations reveal that its accretion rate fluctuates dramatically, highlighting the dynamic processes at play in the formation of rogue planets and blurring the lines between planets and stars.www.spacetimewithstuartgary.com✍️ Episode ReferencesAstronomy and Astrophysicshttps://www.aanda.org/Astrophysical Journal Lettershttps://iopscience.iop.org/journal/2041-8205Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/spacetime-your-guide-to-space-astronomy--2458531/support.Invisible Asteroids Near Venus: A Hidden ThreatThe Universe's Evolution: New Insights from the Epoch of ReionizationA Richie Planet's Remarkable Growth Spurt(00:00) The threat posed by invisible asteroids near Venus(10:30) New findings on the universe's warm early phase(19:00) Discovery of a rogue planet growing at record rates(27:15) Science Robert: 2025 Nobel Prize announcements

[Inder Virdi] shares his harrowing six-year journey from being bedridden to becoming a Nutritional Therapist and a student of neuroscience. We talk about the invisible nature of chronic illness, the power of retraining the brain, and why being a "generalist" might be your greatest superpower. About InderInder started his career in the fast-paced world of fine dining, working alongside top chefs like Heston Blumenthal and Brett Graham at The Ledbury. In his early twenties, life took an unexpected turn when he developed chronic fatigue syndrome. The next six years were spent on a challenging journey to reclaim his health supporting his body and addressing underlying trauma. This experience completely reshaped his path and led him to retrain as a nutritional therapist, eventually going on to study neuroscience at King's College London. Today, Inder runs a busy clinic where he's dedicated to helping people with chronic illness and trauma and was a part of the research team at the Gupta Program, a neuroplasticity program designed for chronic conditions.  

Repasamos junto al historiador del arte Raul Alonso Saez algunas de las historias mas curiosas del arte, en las que el sexo explicito fue una cuestion a ocultar, y visible tan solo para unos pocos privilegiados.

En 1952, le philosophe et écrivain britannique Bertrand Russell publie un article resté célèbre dans lequel il imagine un objet improbable : une petite théière en porcelaine qui flotterait quelque part dans l'espace, en orbite autour du Soleil, entre la Terre et Mars. Invisible aux télescopes les plus puissants, cette théière serait indétectable. Et pourtant, explique Russell, si quelqu'un affirmait son existence sans pouvoir la démontrer, ce ne serait pas à ses contradicteurs de prouver qu'elle n'existe pas. C'est bien à celui qui avance une affirmation extraordinaire qu'il revient d'en apporter la preuve.Cette image, connue sous le nom de « théière de Russell », est devenue un argument philosophique majeur dans le débat entre croyance et scepticisme. Ce que Russell cherchait à illustrer, c'est le renversement du fardeau de la preuve. Trop souvent, dit-il, on demande aux sceptiques de démontrer que Dieu n'existe pas. Or, selon lui, c'est l'inverse qui devrait être exigé : à ceux qui affirment l'existence d'une divinité de fournir les preuves de ce qu'ils avancent. Sa théière spatiale sert donc de métaphore ironique : absurde mais logique, elle met en évidence la difficulté de réfuter une affirmation invérifiable.La portée de cette parabole va bien au-delà de la théologie. Elle s'applique à de nombreux domaines : les pseudo-sciences, les théories du complot, ou encore les affirmations extraordinaires dans les débats publics. Chaque fois qu'une idée invérifiable est présentée comme une vérité, on peut se rappeler l'enseignement de Russell : l'absence de preuve ne constitue pas une preuve d'existence.La comparaison a également marqué la culture populaire et la vulgarisation scientifique. On retrouve la théière de Russell évoquée dans des discussions sur l'agnosticisme, l'athéisme ou encore dans des manuels de logique. Elle est parfois rapprochée du fameux rasoir d'Occam, ce principe qui recommande de préférer l'explication la plus simple quand plusieurs hypothèses sont possibles.En résumé, la « théière de Russell » est une métaphore provocatrice qui rappelle une règle essentielle du raisonnement critique : ce n'est pas à celui qui doute de prouver son doute, mais à celui qui affirme de justifier son affirmation. Une petite théière imaginaire, lancée dans le vide spatial, pour rappeler que la charge de la preuve n'est pas un détail, mais le cœur même de toute démarche rationnelle. Hébergé par Acast.

Quand on respire, on oublie souvent une évidence : l'air a un poids. Invisible, impalpable, il n'en est pas moins matériel. L'air est en effet un mélange de gaz, essentiellement de l'azote (78 %) et de l'oxygène (21 %), auxquels s'ajoutent de petites quantités d'argon, de dioxyde de carbone et d'autres gaz rares. Or, comme toute matière, ces gaz sont constitués de particules dotées d'une masse.Dans des conditions dites « usuelles », c'est-à-dire au niveau de la mer et à une température de 20 °C, la masse volumique de l'air est d'environ 1,3 kilogramme par mètre cube. Dit autrement, un litre d'air pèse approximativement 1,3 gramme. Cela peut sembler minuscule, mais dès que l'on considère de grands volumes, le poids devient considérable. Par exemple, une pièce de 50 m³ — soit une chambre moyenne — contient environ 65 kilos d'air, soit le poids d'un adulte.Ce poids varie en fonction de la pression et de la température. Si la pression diminue, comme en altitude, la densité de l'air baisse : l'air est alors plus « léger », ce qui explique entre autres la difficulté à respirer en montagne. À l'inverse, si la température augmente, les molécules s'agitent, s'écartent les unes des autres et occupent plus de volume : la masse d'air par litre diminue également. C'est ce principe qui permet aux montgolfières de s'élever : l'air chaud qu'elles contiennent est moins dense que l'air extérieur, plus lourd, ce qui crée une poussée vers le haut.Le poids de l'air n'est pas qu'une curiosité théorique : il a des effets concrets sur notre vie quotidienne. La pression atmosphérique, qui résulte du poids de la colonne d'air au-dessus de nos têtes, exerce environ 1 kilogramme par centimètre carré de surface. Sur tout notre corps, cela représente plusieurs tonnes ! Heureusement, notre organisme est équilibré par la pression interne, et nous ne ressentons pas ce poids.Enfin, cette masse d'air joue un rôle crucial dans la météo et le climat. Les variations de densité créent des mouvements, les fameuses masses d'air chaud ou froid, qui gouvernent vents, tempêtes et précipitations.Ainsi, même s'il est invisible, l'air est loin d'être immatériel. Il a un poids mesurable, qui influence aussi bien la science du vol que notre météo et même notre respiration quotidienne. Hébergé par Acast. Visitez acast.com/privacy pour plus d'informations.

My appearance on Excess Returns with Matt Zeigler as the host.I recently had the pleasure of joining my good friend Matt Zeigler on the Excess Returns podcast. Jack Forehand, the creative force behind the show, did an exceptional job editing and producing the episode. Jack has been instrumental in many improvements to Talking Billions over the years, and I'm grateful to both him and Matt for this opportunity.We dove deep into my recent article, “Expensive Truth about Cheap Investments,” which caught the attention of major publications like the WSJ and sparked considerable discussion among readers and listeners. The piece clearly touched a nerve and opened up a conversation worth having.What started as a discussion about the article evolved into something more. Thanks to Matt's skillful hosting, we explored new territory—sharing stories, anecdotes, and recent insights I haven't discussed publicly before. The hour-long conversation captures not just the core ideas of the article, but the deeper implications and real-world applications that make this topic so compelling.I'm excited to share this episode with you—it's reposted here with permission and blessing from both Matt and Jack. Don't miss it!In this episode of Excess Returns, Matt Zeigler sits down with investor and author Bogumil Baranowski to discuss one of investing's most important mindset shifts: moving beyond cheap stocks to paying up for quality and exceptional opportunities. Drawing on lessons from Warren Buffett, Ben Graham, and his own journey, Bogumil explains how value investing evolves across three key phases—buying cheap, buying good, and learning to pay up. The conversation explores patience, conviction, dead money periods, family wealth stewardship, and how to think about value versus price in a noisy world.Timestamps:00:00 Introduction – The cheapest dentist analogy03:00 Why investors love cheap stocks07:00 The evolution from bargain hunter to quality investor09:00 Examples from Ben Graham, Buffett, and Facebook15:30 Conviction, drawdowns, and dead money19:00 Judging success by business progress, not stock price27:00 Lessons from grandma on value and frugality31:00 How Buffett evolved from cheap to quality45:00 Investing for future generations49:00 Invisible wealth and stewardship52:00 The value investor dilemma58:00 Equal-weight vs market-cap indexes59:00 Lessons for the average investor1:02:00 How much research you really need1:04:30 How his WSJ essay came to life and final takeawaysPodcast Program – Disclosure StatementBlue Infinitas Capital, LLC is a registered investment adviser and the opinions expressed by the Firm's employees and podcast guests on this show are their own and do not reflect the opinions of Blue Infinitas Capital, LLC.

In this episode of The WorkWell Podcast™, Jen Fisher speaks with Zach Mercurio, author of "The Power of Mattering: How Leaders Can Create a Culture of Significance." Despite billions invested in engagement programs and wellbeing initiatives, employees are more disengaged than ever—and the problem isn't what most leaders think. This conversation reveals why mattering can't be addressed through programs and perks, and what leaders must do differently at the interaction level to help people feel truly seen, valued, and significant.Episode Highlights:Why engagement is at its lowest point in a decade despite $2 billion invested in programsThe difference between mattering, belonging, and inclusion—and why mattering is what's missingHow we've lost the skills to care for each other after 25 years of digital communicationThe "sprinkler issues" that silently kill motivation and create learned helplessnessWhy high performers and frontline workers are most at risk of feeling invisibleThe three practices that help people feel significant: noticing, affirming, and showing they're neededWhy you can't give effective feedback to someone who doesn't first feel that they matter to youHow showing others they matter actually regenerates your own sense of significanceQuotable Moment"You don't show people that they matter in spite of their low performance.

This episode is a result of a listener question that was emailed in…“Coach Bru, How do I generate more and better ideas?”Ideas are currency, well at least good ideas are. And the ability to create ideas is just like exercising a muscle. If you don't exercise your creativity it will atrophy.This episode teaches you how to do it and shares a tool with you.

We've been taught that success comes from setting goals, defining purpose, and executing a plan. But what if those very habits—the linear drive for certainty—are what keep us stuck? Dr. Anne-Laure Le Cunff, neuroscientist, founder of Ness Labs, and world-leading expert on mindful productivity, has an alternative: treat your life like a series of tiny experiments. In her new book Tiny Experiments, she explores how curiosity, liminal spaces, and small-scale testing can transform how we handle uncertainty and growth. Anne-Laure argues that traditional goal-setting and the “tyranny of purpose” trap us in rigid definitions of success and failure. Instead, she offers a science-backed framework for progress through curiosity-driven experimentation, an approach that replaces pressure with play and perfectionism with learning. We discuss how to navigate the in-between spaces of life, the thresholds between who we were and who we're becoming, and why those moments of uncertainty hold the most potential for transformation. Listen as we dive into how to build an experimental mindset that turns confusion into data and uncertainty into discovery. Highlights  What if the most uncertain moments are also the most meaningful? Invisible “scripts” quietly running your decisions, and how to rewrite them Why rushing to “figure it out” might be costing you your next breakthrough How to turn fear of the unknown into curiosity about what's possible The surprising neuroscience behind why smaller risks create bigger change A four-step framework that turns uncertainty into momentum Why chasing legacy might be keeping you from real impact right now How to slow time without quitting your schedule The overlooked social hack that makes personal growth exponential What happens when you start studying your own life like a scientist If you're in between, unsure, or just restless, this conversation is for you. Anne-Laure shows that uncertainty isn't a problem to solve; it's the raw material of discovery.

Welcome to our all-new collaborative series, "Hidden Levels," in which we team up with 99% Invisible to explore how the world of video games has impacted the world beyond. We'll dive deep into how games are made and designed, exploring everything from the history of the joystick to the faithful recreation of nature in digital spaces. Whether you are a lifelong gamer or have never picked up a controller, "Hidden Levels" uncovers how games have quietly changed culture, technology, and the way we see the world...starting with a '90s arcade classic. Developer Mark Turmell worked at Midway, which was known for iconic games like Space Invaders, Pac-Man, and Mortal Kombat. His creation of NBA Jam in 1993 pushed the company in a new direction. It debuted at the height of the Chicago Bulls' dynasty, aiming to capture the energy of professional basketball in a high-octane, over-the-top format. The game was a hit out of the gate, captivating players with its digitized graphics (with the heads of real NBA players) and fantasy gameplay where players could become "on fire." At the heart of the NBA Jam gaming experience was the voice of its announcer, Tim Kitzrow. Turmell and the game's sound team had realized they needed a voice that could match the game's energy and cut through the din of an arcade, without the budget for a professional NBA commentator. So they turned to Kitzrow, an improv comedian and journeyman actor, who was initially hired by Midway for pinball voiceovers — it was just a fun side gig. He had no idea that his work on NBA Jam would make such a lasting impact on the industry. Kitzrow modeled his energetic, flamboyant delivery on NBA announcer Marv Albert, infusing it with his own ad-libbed, short, and punchy catchphrases like "REJECTED!" and the game's most famous line, "Boomshakalaka!"—which was suggested by an artist and inspired by funk group Sly and the Family Stone. The game became a monumental hit, reportedly making $1 billion in quarters in its first year, with its catchphrases entering basketball vernacular. *** Credits: This episode of "Hidden Levels" was produced by James Parkinson, edited by Emmett FitzGerald, and mixed by Martín Gonzalez. Original music by Swan Real, Jamilah Sandoto, and Paul Vaitkus. Series theme by Swan Real and Paul Vaitkus. This story was adapted from James Parkinson's podcast, Gameplay. The Managing Producer for "Hidden Levels" is Chris Berube. The series was created by Ben Brock Johnson. "Hidden Levels" is a production of 99% Invisible and WBUR's Endless Thread.

Status isn't fixed; it's transferred and "bestowed," shaping who gets resources, attention, and opportunity. So argues author Toby Stuart of UC Berkeley in his book, Anointed. He and EconTalk's Russ Roberts explore why hierarchies persist--reducing conflict, allocating scarce resources, and curating our overwhelming choices--and how endorsements, blurbs, and brands quietly steer our judgments, from bookstores to wine shops and art galleries. At the end, Stuart reflects on imposter syndrome and how thinking deeply about the anointed changed how he sees success.

Have you ever jumped on something as you're moving through the real world, and heard that Mario bouncy sound in your head? Or maybe seen someone acting like an NPC when they're a real person? Maybe you know that the first real "in-app" purchase was actually a weapons store in an arcade game version of Double Dragon 3. Wherever you go in the real world, you can find signs of the influence of videogames. But you have to know where to look. That's why Endless Thread and 99% Invisible are launching a new limited series together called Hidden Levels. Today Roman Mars and Ben Brock Johnson kick off the series with a little preview of what's coming.

En el episodio de hoy hablaremos de un enemigo silencioso que cada vez afecta a más personas: la ansiedad.
