Dr. Adam Dorsay hosts University of Virginia behavioral scientist and engineering/architecture professor Dr. Lediy Klotz to discuss Klotz's book In a Good Place on how spaces affect psychology and how people can thrive by making small, actionable changes. They explore habituation and the idea that subtracting (removing obstacles, noise, or clutter) can improve environments, including using available outdoor space differently (like eating outside). Klotz emphasizes agency as a core psychological need, citing a nursing home study where residents allowed to customize their rooms were 50% more likely to be alive 18 months later, and discusses regaining agency when it's constrained (e.g., sealed hotel windows). They examine space and dominance in negotiation and sports (goalkeepers, Emiliano Martínez), intentional design to foster interaction (Pixar), “space before screen,” and Klotz shares the loss of his daughter Josie and creating “Josie's Way” as a memorial space.00:00 Welcome to SuperPsyched00:28 Why Spaces Feel Good00:47 Meet Dr Lediy Klotz02:09 Arrive Early Hack03:16 The Research Behind It04:38 Five Years to Write05:56 Spaces Shape Psychology07:06 Small Tweaks Big Control09:04 Subtract to Improve Space10:04 Eat Outside Reframe12:08 Designing Outdoor Space12:56 Office Choices and Agency15:33 Defining Agency in Space16:55 Soccer and Agency Lessons18:31 Goalie Mindset and Space20:18 Owning the Penalty Area22:22 Agency Life or Death Study24:18 Mandela Garden Agency25:40 Churchill Shapes Commons26:49 Designing Serendipity30:01 Digital vs Real Space31:17 Space Before Screen32:41 Grief and Boundaries35:18 Josies Way Memorial38:50 Spirit Lives in Stories40:22 Josie Joke Punchline43:49 Miracle Skill Reaction46:25 Closing Thanks FarewellHelpful Links:Lediy Klotz, PhDLediy Klotz, PhD LinkedInIn a Good Place Book

In this episode of Retail War Games, I'm joined by Jon Klotz, the President of Natural Waterscapes. Jon shares an incredible masterclass on how he took a traditional, boots-on-the-ground environmental construction company and completely pivoted it into a hyper-efficient, 100% controlled direct-to-consumer product powerhouse. We dive deep into why Jon made the high-stakes decision to completely shut down his multi-state construction division to double down entirely on e-commerce and proprietary product development. Jon breaks down a massive macro shift happening right under our feet: the death of traditional Search Engine Optimization (SEO) and the rapid rise of Answer Engine Optimization (AEO). He explains how his team built a cutting-edge web app ecosystem to capture this shift, utilizing third-party watershed and soil data to predict exactly what treatments a customer's pond or lake will need before problems even start—locking in deep customer stickiness and securing margin-heavy sales.

Die faschistische Erdregierung wurde von den Aliens in die Knie gezwungen. In der Ideologie der Verlierer fühlt sich Jim Hawkins sichtlich wohl. Für ihn sind die Aliens an allem schuld: Am verlorenen Krieg sowieso, an der Arbeitslosigkeit, der wirtschaftlichen Misere und überhaupt … Er ist zwar noch nie einem Alien persönlich begegnet, aber seine Meinung steht unverrückbar – oder doch nicht? Denn dann erlebt er ein Abenteuer, das seine Einstellung hart auf die Probe stellt, und nach und nach kommen die Selbstzweifel, die sein Weltbild infrage stellen.Udo Klotz organisiert seit rund dreißig Jahren die Wahl und die Verleihung des Kurd Laßwitz Preises, kurz KLP genannt, einem der wichtigsten Literaturpreise auf dem Gebiet der phantastischen Literatur in Deutschland.

Anthony Klotz: Jolted Anthony Klotz is an organizational psychologist and Professor of Management at the UCL School of Management. He is the person who both predicted and coined the term “The Great Resignation,” and his groundbreaking research on quitting, work design, and employee performance has made him a leading voice on the future of work. He is the author of Jolted: Why We Quit, When to Stay, and Why It Matters (Amazon, Bookshop)*. Most of us have attempted to support an employee dealing with a tough career moment. Not all the time, but certainly sometimes, we see those moments coming. When an employee is dealing with a big jolt – or about to – this conversation with Anthony will show you how to help. Key Points Jolts have an outsized influence on people's overall relationship with their work. Managers play a deciding role in how people respond to jolts and are in the best position to insulate the negative effects and amplify the positive effects. Managers can often anticipate and predict jolts to employees. The plans leaders have often become the jolts that others experience. If people can make sense of a jolting event, they are better able to deal with it constructively. The perception of how fair and event is and how fair the process was leading up to the event massively impacts how people perceive it. A clear explanation of why change is happening and what it means can substantially minimize the negative effects of career jolts. The tendency for organizations to delay bad news often is counterproductive to helping managers and employees navigate jolts. Partnership with others (managers, friends, family members) helps most of us better process what we might otherwise attempt to do alone.

How can we—jazz fans, musicians, writers, and historians—understand the legacy and impact of a musician like Dave Brubeck? It is undeniable that Brubeck leveraged his fame as a jazz musician and status as a composer for social justice causes, and in doing so, held to a belief system that, during the civil rights movement, modeled a progressive approach to race and race relations. It is also true that it took Brubeck, like others, some time to understand the full spectrum of racial power dynamics at play in post-WWII, early Cold War, and civil rights-era America. Dave Brubeck and the Performance of Whiteness (Oxford UP, 2023) uses Brubeck's performances of whiteness across his professional, private, and political lives as a starting point to understand the ways in which whiteness, privilege, and white supremacy more fully manifested in mid-century America. How is whiteness performed and re-performed? How do particular traits become inscribed with whiteness, and further, how do those traits, now racialized in a listener's mind, filter the sounds a listener hears? To what extent was Brubeck's whiteness made by others? How did audiences and critics use Brubeck to craft their own identities centered in whiteness? Drawing on archival records, recordings, and previously conducted interviews, Dave Brubeck and the Performance of Whiteness listens closely for the complex and shifting frames of mid-century whiteness, and how they shaped the experiences of Brubeck's critics, audiences, and Brubeck himself. Throughout, author Kelsey Klotz asks what happens when a musician tries to intervene, using his privilege as a tool with which to disrupt structures of white supremacy, even as whiteness continues to retain its hold on its beneficiaries.

It is undeniable that Brubeck leveraged his fame as a jazz musician and status as a composer for social justice causes, and in doing so, held to a belief system that, during the civil rights movement, modeled a progressive approach to race and race relations. It is also true that it took Brubeck, like others, some time to understand the full spectrum of racial power dynamics at play in post-WWII, early Cold War, and civil rights-era America. Dave Brubeck and the Performance of Whiteness (Oxford UP, 2023) uses Brubeck's performances of whiteness across his professional, private, and political lives as a starting point to understand the ways in which whiteness, privilege, and white supremacy more fully manifested in mid-century America. How is whiteness performed and re-performed? How do particular traits become inscribed with whiteness, and further, how do those traits, now racialized in a listener's mind, filter the sounds a listener hears? To what extent was Brubeck's whiteness made by others? How did audiences and critics use Brubeck to craft their own identities centered in whiteness? Drawing on archival records, recordings, and previously conducted interviews, Dave Brubeck and the Performance of Whiteness listens closely for the complex and shifting frames of mid-century whiteness, and how they shaped the experiences of Brubeck's critics, audiences, and Brubeck himself. Throughout, author Kelsey Klotz asks what happens when a musician tries to intervene, using his privilege as a tool with which to disrupt structures of white supremacy, even as whiteness continues to retain its hold on its beneficiaries.

Tonight Jim and Ava talk with Paralympian, LSU All-American Swimmer, and Big Brother Runner-Up Matt Klotz.
There's nothing quite like the joy on a child's face when they open a Christmas gift chosen just for them. It's the kind of joy that lingers long after the wrapping paper is gone—the joy of being remembered, seen and loved. For more than 40 years, The Salvation Army's Angel Tree program has made that moment possible for children across the country. It has grown into a movement that now brings Christmas joy to more than a million children each year. The idea was simple: invite the community to adopt a child by name, shop for their Christmas wishes, and then return those gifts so they could be placed into the hands of families who might otherwise go without. Behind that simple plan are countless stories of connection and hope—families who breathe a sigh of relief, children who go back to school with new clothes, volunteers who find purpose in serving. Today, you'll hear from people whose lives have been touched by these gifts. Captain Yohani Ortiz shares her own story of receiving gifts as a child and how it shaped her life. And then, you'll hear from Marlene Klotz-Collins, who helped launch the Christmas Angel program in Phoenix and has volunteered faithfully for four decades. Because at Christmastime, joy shows up in many faces—and often, it starts with a simple paper angel. EPISODE SHOWNOTES: Read more. BE AFFIRMED. Get the Good Words email series. JOIN THE HOPEFULS.

Next Level Soul with Alex Ferrari: A Spirituality & Personal Growth Podcast
There's something profoundly liberating about peeling back the layers of history and finding the raw, untamed wisdom beneath. On today's episode, we welcome Neil Douglas Klotz, a scholar and mystic whose journey into the Aramaic roots of Jesus's teachings unveils a radically different understanding of the man, his message, and the world he lived in.The Jesus many of us have encountered is a product of centuries of translation, political maneuvering, and cultural adaptation. The blue-eyed, English-speaking figure who stands at the center of Western Christianity is a far cry from the Aramaic-speaking mystic who roamed the hills of ancient Palestine. Neil Douglas Klotz takes us back to the beginning, to the words that Jesus actually spoke, words that vibrate with an entirely different rhythm than those found in the King James Bible. “If you read ‘spirit' in the New Testament,” he says, “just put ‘breath' over that word, because that's what the Aramaic also means.”It is in this forgotten wisdom that we find a Jesus who wasn't simply demanding belief but rather inviting participation.One of the most profound mistranslations, according to Klotz, is the oft-quoted phrase “believe in me.” In Aramaic, the more accurate translation is “believe like me.” This shifts the message entirely—Jesus wasn't asking for blind devotion but instead urging people to embody faith in the way he did, to step into the divine flow as he had.The Aramaic worldview, Klotz explains, did not divide existence into rigid dualities. There was no separation between body and soul, breath and spirit, heaven and earth. The kingdom of heaven, Jesus said, is not some far-off celestial domain but something “within and among” us. The words for “within” and “among” are the same in Aramaic—suggesting that the divine is not a place to go but a way to be, something alive in the interconnected web of existence.And what of hell? Another grand misunderstanding, says Klotz. Jesus never spoke of a fiery pit of eternal torment but rather referred to Gehenna, a literal burning trash heap outside of Jerusalem. The idea of an eternal damnation was a much later addition, a political tool used to control through fear. The Jesus of Aramaic tradition wasn't threatening souls with punishment—he was urging people to purify their burdens, to release what weighs them down, to transform their suffering rather than be consumed by it.Even the crucifixion, Klotz suggests, is layered in mystery and translation errors. The idea of Jesus returning, he argues, is not about a second coming in the clouds but rather about a recognition of Christ's presence in one another. “We will see Jesus in each other and in nature,” he says. “That's the Second Coming.” Perhaps the greatest tragedy of organized religion has been its insistence on externalizing the divine, when all along Jesus was saying: It's here, now, inside you.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/next-level-soul-podcast-with-alex-ferrari--4858435/support.

C dans l'air l'invité du 28 juin 2025 avec Paul KLOTZ, haut fonctionnaire et expert associé à la Fondation Jean Jaurès. Il publie une note intitulée "Le sommeil: la lutte sociale du siècle" dans le cadre de la série "la nouvelle condition sociale".Dans sa note, Paul Klotz alerte sur la dégradation du sommeil en France, tant en termes de durée, de qualité que de régularité. 63 % des Français déclarent mal dormir, dont 23 % de manière fréquente. (Ipsos, 2023). Symboliquement, la population française dort désormais moins de 7 heures par nuit, une durée pourtant recommandée pour les adultes, et qui ne cesse de diminuer d'année en année. Mais au-delà de ce constat chiffré, Paul Klotz montre que le sommeil est profondément fragilisé par des dynamiques propres à la vie contemporaine : usage intensif des écrans le soir, nuisances sonores et lumineuses en milieu urbain, stress professionnel croissant, et rythmes de travail désynchronisés. Ces facteurs relèguent le sommeil au rang de temps improductif, alors qu'il représente pourtant un tiers de notre existence.Les conséquences sont lourdes, tant sur le plan physique que psychologique : troubles cardiovasculaires, déséquilibres hormonaux, pathologies neurodégénératives ou encore souffrances mentales. À cela s'ajoute un coût collectif majeur, en termes de santé publique sans compter la forte consommation de somnifères et d'anxiolytiques. Face à ce constat, sa note souligne l'urgence de transformer les représentations collectives du sommeil. Paul Klotz appelle à le considérer comme un enjeu de santé publique et d'égalité sociale, un "droit au sommeil", qui pourrait aussi passer à titre d'exemple, par la reconnaissance des bienfaits de la sieste dans notre vie quotidienne et le cadre professionnel.

„Ein ungehobelter Klotz? Oder der letzte Politiker mit Prinzipien, der auch noch Wort hält?“ Donald Trump bleibt auch im Jahr 2025 ein politisches Ausnahmewesen. Er polarisiert wie kaum ein anderer – nicht nur durch seine grobschlächtige Rhetorik, sondern auch durch seine Fähigkeit, selbst härteste Angriffe zu überstehen und gestärkt daraus hervorzugehen. Ob Verfolgung durch politische Gegner, Prozesse unter dubiosen Vorzeichen oder ständige mediale Verachtung: Trump hat all das nicht geschwächt, sondern seine Aura als unerschütterlicher Kämpfer gegen das Establishment gestärkt. Holger Douglas untersucht im Gespräch mit TE-Autor Laszlo Trankovits das Phänomen Trump. Trankovits warnt am Ende vor vorschnellen Urteilen: Trump sei kein Heiliger, aber auch kein Dämon. Was Trump wirklich ausmacht… https://live.tichyseinblick.shop/produkt-kategorie/magazine/jahrgang-2025/ Webseite: https://www.tichyseinblick.de

It shocks western Christians sometimes to realize Jesus isn't American and didn't speak English. Neil Douglas-Klotz, PHD has written about Jesus through the language or Aramaic, which was Jesus' actual native tongue. The book is an approach to Jesus's recorded words and teachings to answer many questions clearly and consistently, even if unexpectedly, no matter which Gospel one has in their hands. Paul and Ashley discuss with Dr. Klotz why Aramaic's multiple meanings can provide revelation and even transformation through the way of the prophet of Nazareth. It shows how Jesus's deepest teachings address contemporary challenges, such as our relationships with nature and each other, as well as the purpose of life itself.

Every inhale and exhale connects us to something greater, a reminder that we are not separate from the divine but are continuously part of its unfolding.Faith is Participation, Not Belief – Jesus didn't ask people to believe in him; he asked them to embody faith as he did. It's about stepping into a way of being rather than subscribing to a doctrine.Heaven is Within and Among Us – The kingdom of heaven is not a distant place but a lived experience, something we create through our relationships, actions, and awareness.It's a wild thing, to realize how much has been hidden in plain sight. The Aramaic Jesus is not a figure of power and punishment, but a guide toward deep presence, compassion, and awakening. It is in the breath, in the heart, in the connection between beings that his true teachings still whisper through time.Please enjoy my conversation with Neil Douglas Klotz.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/next-level-soul-podcast-with-alex-ferrari--4858435/support.

30footFALL is an American punk rock band that began in Houston, Texas. In 1995 they released their first studio album Divided We Stand on Fuzzgun Records. After hearing a demo, Bob Becker of Fearless Records signed them to a record deal and in 1997 produced their next album Acme-143. In 1999, the band released their most successful album, Ever Revolving, Never Evolving, on Nitro Records. The release was followed by numerous shows including a tour with The Vandals. I heard about these guys on the Fearless Flush Sampler when I got that at a local Jersey show when I was 18. That sampler introduced us to a ton of bands which we talk about in the interview. Their name has always stuck in my head so I wanted to get Butch on the Skype and thanks to Jason Mack I did and this is what we chat about: The Fearless Flush Sampler Wanting to change the name in the beginning Current house shows in Houston Jim Cherry advocating them to get on Fearless The Punk Bites Comp Playing Warped Tour Getting signed to Nitro Stopping Touring all together Their album Doppler Effect Their annual Christmas Show Their latest release the gross story And a ton more Lastly I started doing whiteboard animations so if your marketing department has said recently “Hey, we need a whiteboard animation” then email me at mike@drive80.com
