Peter Stansky, Professor of History, Emeritus at Stanford University and author of The Socialist Patriot: George Orwell and War, explores the life and political evolution of George Orwell (born Eric Blair). Born in India in 1903 to a family in the "official classes," Orwell's early identity was shaped by the British Empire and his education at St Cyprian's and Eton. Stansky argues that Orwell's experiences during World War I fostered an intense patriotism, which he distinguished from nationalism as a love for one's country without the desire to impose its will on others. Orwell's career shifted from serving as an imperial police officer in Burma to living in poverty in London and Paris to understand class dynamics. A defining moment occurred during the Spanish Civil War, where he was wounded while fighting for the POUM. This experience transformed him into a convinced democratic socialist while simultaneously making him a fierce anti-communist after witnessing Soviet-backed betrayals. During World War II, Orwell worked for the BBC and wrote The Lion and the Unicorn, arguing that England must become socialist to win the war. His final years were marked by personal tragedy and failing health as he wrote his most famous works, Animal Farm and 1984. Stansky concludes that these masterpieces were not anti-socialist, but rather warnings about the corrupting nature of power and the betrayal of revolutionary ideals by leaders who prioritize maintaining control over the welfare of the people.

The Church Of The Souls Evolution with The Reverend Blake Rubie (Ordained Minister) Time Travel, Soul Evolution, and the Prayer That Can Change the World Reverend Blake Rubie reflects on singing, service, extraterrestrials, time travel, afterlife judgment, world conflict, prayer, and the soul's journey, urging listeners to love one another, respect the human family, and help guide Earth toward peace. Everyday Life, Date Night, and Toastmasters In this episode of The Church of the Soul's Evolution, Reverend Blake Rubie opens with a personal update from San Antonio, mentioning the weather, a movie date night with his wife, and their new Friday-night routine of going out together. He also discusses attending a Toastmasters meeting that morning, where he gave a short speech he later expands on during the broadcast. The corrected transcript notes that Blake's spiritual, metaphysical, political, and personal reflections are preserved as his statements, while claims about extraterrestrials, time travel, hell, world politics, and religious belief are not independently verified. Singing, Military Cadence, and Service to Wounded Warriors Blake spends a major portion of the early episode reflecting on his lifelong connection to singing. He traces that gift back to his Army service beginning in 1982, when he sang cadence during infantry training and later carried that love of music into karaoke, church choir, and personal practice. He describes singing for wounded warriors at the Warrior and Family Support Center on Fort Sam Houston as one of the best things he has done, recalling how he brought equipment, performed during lunch gatherings, and used music as a quiet form of service, encouragement, and praise. The Sun, Spirit, Hell, and the Recorded Life The episode then moves into Blake's metaphysical view of the sun, spirit, death, and afterlife judgment. He describes human beings as spirits in material bodies, says every second of life is recorded, and presents dreams as times when the spirit leaves the body and travels into “dream land.” Blake also gives an intense description of hell or purgatory as a temporary place of painful rehabilitation for deeply harmful people, while emphasizing that the Creator is ultimately merciful and that souls continue their journey after correction. Creation, Extraterrestrials, and the Universe of Many Beings Blake expands his reflections into a cosmology that includes the Big Bang, a male-and-female Creator, four forces of the universe, and thousands of extraterrestrial civilizations. He describes many types of beings — humanoids, greys, beings of light, hermaphroditic beings, and advanced races from other planets and galaxies — and frames Earth as a young species being helped by older souls and more advanced civilizations. He also suggests that some billionaires and powerful people may be younger souls who make life difficult for others on this planet. Time Travel, Living Spacecraft, and Parallel Reality The central teaching comes from Blake's Toastmasters speech on time travel. He describes extraterrestrial spacecraft as living entities, possibly made from plant matter, crystalline structure, and other materials, piloted through consciousness and advanced mind-machine interaction. Blake says some beings can accelerate close to the speed of light, harness universal energy, and transition into a parallel or spiritual universe where time can be traveled as a location or trail. In his explanation, travelers re-enter the physical universe at a chosen point in history, then return by riding the parallel-universe path forward while avoiding the danger of returning to the same place and time as their earlier selves. Thiaoouba, Guardianship, Nuclear Danger, and Free Will Blake also discusses extraterrestrials from Thiaoouba, describing them as nine-foot-tall hermaphroditic guardians who have interacted with Earth for thousands of years and are represented, in his view, by the statues on Easter Island. He presents advanced civilizations as responsible for helping lower civilizations, but says they cannot override human free will except in rare moments of crisis or divine intervention. This leads into his warning about nuclear weapons, Hiroshima, Nagasaki, and the possibility that civilizations must suffer consequences if they choose self-destruction rather than peaceful cooperation. Prayer, Peace, Palestine, Iran, and the Human Family The final section turns toward peace, prayer, and human dignity. Blake argues that Earth is a difficult school for the soul, but that people can still make the world better by loving one another, respecting human life, and praying for others. He speaks emotionally about Palestine, Israel, October 7th, Iran, war, innocent civilians, Trump, political division, and the inability of nations to talk through conflict. He closes by calling on “prayer warriors” to pray for the world, asking the Creator to help humanity survive, continue its soul evolution, and learn to love each other more fully.

A few months ago, Maria Garcia was watching the Benito Bowl when an unexpected artist came on: the one and only Ricky Martin. Maria knew this was a touchstone moment — the artist who most represented the ‘90s Latin Boom was singing a song of resistance, in Spanish. And then Maria’s 11-year-old son said, “Who’s that???” Today, in an exclusive listen to the first episode of “Muy Excited with Maria Garcia,” our new podcast from Futuro Studios and iHeartRadio, Maria revisits the importance of Ricky Martin, the queer icon’s career and life, and how he had to live “La vida loca” so that Bad Bunny could do “Lo que le da la gana.” Watch this episode on YouTube.

Living with chronic illness can feel like collecting diagnoses without getting real answers. Symptoms are treated one at a time, but the underlying causes can easily be missed. What if asking a different question is the first step toward feeling better? In this episode, I'm joined by Dr. Richard Horowitz, an internationally recognized Lyme disease expert and author of the new book Ending Chronic Illness. After caring for thousands of patients over more than four decades, he explains why many seemingly unrelated conditions share common underlying drivers—and why thinking like a medical detective may help uncover them. We discuss: Why treating the diagnosis isn't always the same as treating the problem—and how to start looking deeper How hidden infections, environmental toxins, gut health, and other overlooked factors can quietly drive chronic illness What new research may reveal about the links between infection, inflammation, and brain health How to begin uncovering what's really driving persistent symptoms Our bodies are constantly communicating with us. The challenge isn't that they're silent—it's that we haven't always known how to listen. Sometimes finding better answers begins with asking different questions. Continue Exploring If you'd like to explore Dr. Horowitz's work further, here are two great places to start: Take his Symptom Assessment Quiz to better understand what may be contributing to your symptoms.

As public understanding of neurodiversity continues to grow, evaluators face a shifting landscape when assessing clients whose traits don't match traditional, less nuanced pictures of autism. Many individuals—especially women and girls—learn to navigate daily social interactions through pattern recognition and learned strategies rather than intuitive processing, masking their traits enough to miss early identification. Dr. Jeremy Sharp, a licensed psychologist, founder of the Colorado Center for Assessment, and host of the Testing Psychologist Podcast, joins Emily to unpack the realities of camouflaging and what it takes to catch these less obvious presentations during a diagnostic evaluation. TAKEAWAYS The increasing prevalence of self-identification and online research requires evaluators to look beyond traditional, high-support presentation models when assessing for autism. Camouflaging and masking rely on active cognitive problem-solving and pattern recognition rather than intuitive social processing, creating high internal fatigue that standard testing environments can miss. Structured, one-on-one assessment settings can artificially boost a person's immediate social performance, making ambiguous or unstructured interactions essential during clinical observations. Traditional assessment tools like the ADOS can be less sensitive when evaluating females, who often demonstrate higher surface social fluency and culturally common special interests. Arriving at an accurate diagnostic picture requires gathering broad collateral information from parents, partners, and teachers rather than relying on a single test score. You can register now for our upcoming continuing education course for mental health professionals, Clinical Implications of Late-Identified Neurodivergence: Strategies for Identity Integration and Therapeutic Support. The course will be presented by Dr. Amy Marschall, author of the book Neurodiversity-Affirming Therapy, and will be available both as a live event on Friday, August 7 from 2:00 - 3:30 PM Eastern, 11:00 AM - 12:30 PM Pacific, and afterwards in video form.

Amanda Calabrese was a middle schooler at a swim meet when she got her period for the first time. Her team captain told her to figure it out in thirty minutes or she was off the relay. That moment stuck with her all the way to Stanford, where she met her future co-founder Greta Meyer and started sketching what would become Sequel, the first tampon redesign in nearly a hundred years. On this episode of She Pivots, Amanda talks about the four-year fight to get a tiny piece of cotton past the FDA, why she treats the tampon as game-day equipment rather than something to whisper about, and how Sequel landed in locker rooms from middle schools to Audi Field, Yankees Stadium, and the Indiana Fever. Now a nine-time champion turned product design engineer, Amanda is on a mission to change how period care is talked about in sports and in every space where women show up to compete.

Forskare tror att de blodtörstiga vägglössen fanns redan i stenålderns grottboningar. Genom historien har olika typer av ohyra inte bara gett oss kliande bett och förstört våra matförråd, utan också orsakat några av mänsklighetens mest förödande sjukdomsepidemier.Under några decennier på 1900-talet, när en rad nya och kraftfulla bekämpningsmedel gjorde entré, såg det ut som att människan äntligen höll på att vinna den tusenåriga kampen mot krypen.Men segervittringen blev kortvarig.

Jeetu Patel, Nick, and Mohammad delve into our custom silicon strategy. While many see networking as a software-driven game, we discuss why many of the most significant breakthroughs are happening at the physical layer. We explore how Cisco's unique approach to co-designing silicon alongside our software and systems portfolio is creating a level of performance and efficiency that simply cannot be achieved with off-the-shelf components.
Today's Cruise News covers three developments reshaping the cruise experience. Royal Caribbean Group is building out the Mahahual K'iin Community Center in Costa Maya, Mexico, adding sports courts and spaces for education, workshops, and cultural events, even as its larger Perfect Day Mexico project remains unresolved after Mexican authorities rejected the current plan in May. Disney Cruise Line's Disney Fantasy has returned from a rare 10-night Southern Caribbean voyage with calls in St. Maarten, St. Lucia, Antigua, and Puerto Rico, and a repeat sailing is set for July 11, 2027. And Holland America Line has debuted four original productions aboard Oosterdam, headlined by a new Rolling Stone-branded rock show at the World Stage, part of the line's $500 million-plus Evolution program spanning six ships.
A century ago, a Jesuit priest predicted that humanity would evolve into something he called the "ultra-human." Tami Simon speaks with religious studies scholar D.W. Pasulka—author of The Others: UFOs, AI, and the Secret Forces Guiding Human Destiny—about why that prediction looks eerily prescient today, the startling pattern match between angel encounters and UFO reports, and what it means to relate to AI as a tool, not a companion.This conversation offers genuine transmission, not just concepts about awakening, but the palpable presence of realized teachers exploring the growing edge of spiritual understanding together, and originally aired on Sounds True One.Insights at the Edge is supported by Omega Institute, a global gathering hub for lifelong learning and spiritual exploration.

Humans are the only animals that get dressed every day. Clothing is one of our most important inventions, yet we rarely even think about it as a technology. Nina Jablonski joins us to explore when and why our ancestors started wearing clothes, and what that decision meant for our survival, our migration across the planet, and our sense of self. Origin Stories is a project of The Leakey Foundation, a nonprofit dedicated to funding human origins research and sharing discoveries. Please support our work at leakeyfoundation.org/originstories.

"You have to figure out how to make self-care a priority because you know the body does not sit still... Your mindset will allow you to move forward, or it will take you backwards." —Dr. Mitra Ray Stanford-trained biologist Dr. Mitra Ray spent three decades building a career in women's longevity, but the habits she taught everyone else became something she never expected: the infrastructure that kept her upright after her husband, Doug, died suddenly in a paragliding accident in October 2023. In this conversation with host Justine Reichman, Dr. Ray traces her path from NIH- and Alzheimer's-funded cancer research to walking away from the lab, building a word-of-mouth wellness brand that sold 2 million copies with zero advertising, and eventually testing her own biological age during the hardest year of her life — and watching it go backward. This episode is for anyone navigating midlife, grief, perimenopause, or the quiet realization that the wellness habits they've dismissed as trendy might be the thing holding them together. Dr. Ray and Justine talk candidly about cold plunging, sobriety, plant-based nutrition, sleep science, and the gut-microbiome research behind cravings — grounding every claim in the biology, not the buzzwords. Key takeaways: Dr. Ray's biological age measurably reversed during the year she grieved her husband, evidence that consistent habits can outperform circumstance. Comparing your current body to a memory of your 25-year-old self is biologically counterproductive — memories change every time you access them, and the comparison itself triggers cortisol and inflammation. Cold plunging activates the anterior mid-cingulate cortex, the brain region tied to willpower and will to live, which Dr. Ray leaned on deliberately after losing Doug. Food cravings are largely dictated by gut bacteria, not willpower — feeding plant-based bacteria gradually shifts what your body craves. "Superagers" in their 80s are still generating new neurons, making neurogenesis — not a return to a younger self — the more useful benchmark for healthy aging. Grief lives in the body: cortisol, thyroid, and hormone levels shift during loss, and naming that process without judgment is part of recovering from it. Listen to the full conversation and subscribe to Essential Ingredients for more real conversations at the intersection of food, purpose, and building a better future: https://tinyurl.com/Essential-Ingredients-Podcast Meet Dr. Ray: Living a long, healthy life is not as complicated as the wellness industry would have you believe. Dr. Mitra Ray has spent more than 30 years helping people understand this, and more importantly, live it. Her path into health was shaped by both rigorous science and lived experience. She completed her undergraduate degree at Cornell University and earned her PhD from Stanford Medical School, where her research was funded by multiple NIH grants and recognized with the Young Investigator Award from the Federation of American Societies in Experimental Biology. Her work has been published in Science, Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, and the Journal of Cell Biology: journals that do not publish ideas lightly. But credentials alone do not explain why audiences across four continents keep coming back to hear her speak, or why her books and lectures on health, beauty, brain function, and longevity have resonated as widely as they have. The reason is simpler: she translates what the science actually says into something you can do and sustain. Her focus has always been whole plant foods, an active body, and a clear mind. These three things, she has come to understand, are not a wellness trend. They are the foundation. Everything downstream of that foundation- how you look, how you feel, how you age- follows. The Elder's Evolution, her Substack publication, is where she writes about what it means to age well, with full attention paid to both the biology and the deeper questions that biology alone cannot answer.

Start with one property, one relationship, or one disciplined habit, then keep building until freedom is no longer a dream but the foundation beneath everything you do.

Merneptah started his reign aggressively, striking a belligerent tone in his royal names and launching an expedition to Canaan in the first few years. In the process, his troops captured Ashkelon, Gezer, and Yenoam, and dealt with a tribe called "Israel." Simultaneously, Merneptah achieved a great diplomatic coup when we brought Ugarit back into the Egyptian sphere. Music by Keith Zizza & Luke Chaos.

Last week I told you the story of everything that led up to launching ClickFunnels — my original “One Funnel Away.” I ended it like the hero coming home victorious with the elixir. But here's the thing about a hero's journey: it always has a sequel. And the sequel is where it gets real. This is the final episode of The Russell Brunson Show — I'm winding it down and relaunching as a new podcast called Bootstrap Secrets. So to close it out, I'm giving you part two: “One Funnel Away: Evolution,” the presentation from the last Funnel Hacking Live about how we scaled ClickFunnels past a billion dollars in sales. Not the highlight reel — the real version, with all the ups, the downs, and the moments it nearly fell apart. Key Highlights: ◼️The launch that almost killed the company — two years and every dollar of savings gone, a “reverse launch” that stalled out, and the five failed attempts before one event with Mike Filsaime finally cracked it ◼️The “booth babes” funnel — told I could speak at Traffic & Conversion but couldn't sell, how Dave Woodward funneled a hallway of people into the most talked-about room at the event (and how Dave hired himself on the spot) ◼️Why DotCom Secrets became “the doctrine of the movement” — the book that finally made people get ClickFunnels, and the explosion from a few hundred members to twelve thousand ◼️The London meltdown — landing overseas to thousands of messages (some of them literal death threats) with ClickFunnels down for hours, and the one thing I did instead of hiding that flipped the whole community from rage to support ◼️Why I turned down $110 million — the private conversation with Moz's Rand Fishkin about VC money, depression, and control that made me walk away from the check Looking back, none of it was sunshine and roses — and that's exactly the point. Every high came wrapped in a low I didn't see coming, and the business only survived because I had a team and a community carrying it with me. Like Gary Halbert said, one idea, properly exploited, is worth more than ten lifetimes of hard work — and I've watched that one idea change more lives than I ever thought possible. So as I close out this chapter and step into the next one, here's what I'll leave you with: what's the one calling you've been carrying that's worth getting punched in the face for… and who's in your corner for when it happens? ◼️FUNNEL HACKING LIVE AI: The last Funnel Hacking Live ever is this September in Las Vegas — a smaller, one-time, AI-everything encore, and the room where this whole community comes together one final time.

If alien life were to be discovered elsewhere in the cosmos, would it be evidence of intelligent design or blind evolutionary forces? On this ID The Future, host Andrew McDiarmid brings you the first half of a recent conversation with geologist Dr. Casey Luskin and his wife, science teacher Kristin Marais, that originally aired on the Apologetics Profile podcast. The conversation explores the scientific theory of intelligent design, and in particular, the intuitive ways we recognize patterns in life, from forensic science to archaeology. This is Part 1 of a two-part conversation. We're grateful to the producer of Apologetics Profile for permission to share this conversation at ID The Future. Source

Today, we are breaking down Applied Intuition. Our guests are co-founders Qasar Younis and Peter Ludwig, who started the company in 2017 with a mission to make a billion machines intelligent. The simplest way to understand Applied Intuition is that it builds the brains for machines, and the tools other companies use to build those brains. If a manufacturer wants its tractor, truck, or mining vehicle to drive itself, it can buy the intelligence from Applied Intuition or use its platform to develop its own. The analogy the founders use is Nvidia. Just as Nvidia sells chips into everyone else's machines, Applied Intuition sells intelligence into everyone else's machines, across automotive, defense, mining, agriculture, and robotics, without building any single machine itself. We discuss why the most important companies of the next 25 years will all be physical AI companies, Dana, their new agentic platform for developing and deploying these systems, and how the company raised a billion dollars without spending any of it. Please enjoy this Breakdown of Applied Intuition.

If physical extraterrestrial beings from another region of our galaxy or universe is scientifically impossible, then what other alternatives are there which might reveal the true identity of aliens and extraterrestrial intelligences? Are they all just science fiction, or might there be a deeper, spiritual reality behind their true identity? On this episode of the Profile, Watchman Fellowship President James K. Walker sits down with Watchman founder David Henke to discuss some biblical possibilities regarding the nature and identity of alleged extraterrestrials. Why would any alien beings from another part of the universe be so focused on correcting our understanding of Jesus and the Gospel message?The Bible is clear about the identity of anyone who comes preaching a different Gospel or a different Jesus, even if they appear to us as angels of light.

Ever since he first received his first bitcoin in 2013, Joël Valenzuela has been on a quest to use free market electronic cash to pay for everything. Today, he is still unbanked and looking for ways to make instant payments without a bank account. He is best known for working for the DASH cryptocurrency project. But over the years, he's collaborated with plenty of other projects (mostly those related with private payments) and he possesses a wealth of knowledge in terms of adoption, everyday use as money, and user experience. Since Joël practices what he preaches and lives without fiat or banks, he is a bona fide advocate of inconvenience: using ATMs, purchasing gift cards, and trying every workaround that helps him accomplish the mission of never using fiat currencies. 00:00:00 Intro & sponsors: living without banks with Joël Valenzuela 00:02:18 The Vlad Costea handle saga & paying X to keep your name 00:04:20 Where the "Desert Lynx" name actually comes from 00:09:04 Joël's origin story: how Peter Schiff led him to Bitcoin 00:10:16 Growing up on the border & the Mexican peso crisis 00:12:16 First Bitcoin: the Chicago pizza payback of 2013 00:14:27 Silk Road's shutdown & the chaos of the Mt.

Welcome to Mysterious Universe Season 36 episode 03! Today, we take a deep breath and entertain that which we have many a time maligned with a look at the work of Lyssa Royal and Keith Priest with their book, Visitors From Within. Though we are skeptical, that skepticism is harmonized with a keen awareness of the variety of freaky woo woo found around us, and the stone-cold fact that all sides of a story doth make'th a story, not just the one we emotionally prefer. In our Plus+ extension, we continue the wild stories from Jerome Clark's 2000 book Extraordinary Encounters. From the bizarre case of a UFO-less Gray encounter at a motel, to mince pie stealing entities, and finally a well-known case of nude Venusians evading the camera, we wrangle the weirdest of tales for our elite Plus+ members!

In today's episode, Bob explains why volatile markets driven by passive flows keep handing opportunities to stock pickers.

How do you hold onto a spiritual tradition after being deeply disappointed by the people who represent it? That's a question Swami Padmanabha — a Hindu monk, teacher and author of Evolution in Divine Love — has had to wrestle with more than once. Rather than walking away, those experiences led him into a deeper exploration of authority, uncertainty, love and the possibility that healthy traditions are those that continue to evolve.In this conversation, Tim and Swami explore what it means to stay rooted without becoming rigid, to question without becoming cynical, and to remain open to wisdom wherever it is found. Along the way they discover some surprising resonances between Hinduism and Christianity, and ask whether the future of religion might depend less on having all the answers and more on learning how to keep growing.After the interview, Tim is joined by Nick to reflect on what stayed with them most. From caring for God as though God were a child, to learning from other faith traditions without losing your own roots, they explore where Swami's vision resonated, where it challenged them, and the questions they're still left pondering.Interview starts at 12m 48sBooks, quotes, links →The creation of Nomad's thoughtful, ad-free content is entirely funded by our equally thoughtful and wonderful listeners.
