The Tim Conway Jr. Show Hour 4 (6.23) World-class pulmonologist Dr. Ray Casciari of St. Joseph in Orange joins Tim Conway Jr. as health concerns intensify over the Boyle Heights fire, now blanketing several cities in smoke for seven straight days. The blaze ignited Wednesday from what authorities say was a solar system atop the Lineage cold-storage facility — and it's now believed to have started during testing by solar contractors. Air quality concerns linger across LA, but the EPA and South Coast Air Quality Management District say they've found nothing beyond normal post-fire combustible material. Gov. Gavin Newsom has declared a state of emergency for LA County, hours after Mayor Karen Bass issued a local emergency declaration. (And yes — TV dinners really did mean TV.) Plus: the World Cup offside rule, finally made simple — why "cherry-picking" is illegal and what it takes to follow your team around the globe. A snake-in-the-toilet warning you won't forget. And NBA Draft history: the Washington Wizards take BYU's AJ Dybantsa No. 1 overall — a program first — ahead of Darryn Peterson, Cameron Boozer, and Caleb Wilson in one of the deepest classes in years. Stick around for the Taco Bell love story: an 81-year-old couple renews their vows at the drive-thru and lands free lunch for life.

The Tim Conway Jr. Show Hour 1 (6.23) The Boyle Heights warehouse INFERNO is out of control — 60 MILLION gallons of water and STILL burning. Tim Conway Jr. breaks down the Lineage cold-storage disaster that's blanketed LA in hazardous smoke for SEVEN straight days. World-class pulmonologist Dr. Ray Casciari (St. Joseph, Orange) reveals the SHOCKING truth about what you're breathing right now — and why N95 and P100 masks aren't optional anymore. Ammonia leaks, fine-particle warnings, shelter-in-place orders… is YOUR neighborhood next? PLUS: Gov. Newsom declares a STATE OF EMERGENCY. Mayor Karen Bass scrambles for resources. The solar-contractor blunder that may have sparked it all. And the "Deluge 105" mega-cannon firing 2,000 gallons a minute at the blaze that WON'T DIE.

Acupuncture and Traditional Chinese Medicine offer a different way to understand the body, especially when it comes to chronic pain, pelvic floor dysfunction, stress, digestion, anxiety, inflammation, nervous system dysregulation, and unexplained symptoms.In this episode of hol+, Dr. Taz sits down with  Dr. Jordan Barber, clinician, educator, published researcher, licensed acupuncturist, and author of Thinking in Chinese Medicine: A Patient's Guide to Acupuncture, Herbs, and Healing, for a grounded conversation about what Chinese medicine actually is, why it has been misunderstood in the West, and how it can help us see chronic pain, pelvic floor dysfunction, stress, symptoms, and whole-body health through a more connected lens.Together, they explore why Chinese medicine is not just acupuncture, herbs, or “energy work,” but a way of thinking. Dr. Barber explains how Traditional Chinese Medicine looks at the whole person, including sleep, digestion, emotions, stress, relationships, movement, pain patterns, and the way someone experiences life. He also breaks down how the word qi became simplified into “energy,” why that translation can be misleading, and why Chinese medicine is often more practical, physiological, and science-informed than many people realize.Dr. Barber shares his own path into Chinese medicine after working in IT, living through 9/11 in New York City, and experiencing chronic health issues that conventional care did not resolve. After trying acupuncture, Chinese herbs, and dietary changes, he saw a major improvement in his recurring sinus issues and began to understand health through a completely different framework.If you're listening to this and thinking, “My symptoms feel connected, but no one is helping me connect the dots,” join the Circle here:

In this episode we celebrate Father's Day with the best way we know how....discussing Star Trek! We look at TNG's "Bloodlines" when Captain Picard is surprised by a possible love child. What ensues is a web of lies and deceit by the former Daimon, Bok. We also look at Voyager's "Lineage" as Belanna and Paris find out that they are going to be first Time parents. However, Belanna's childhood haunts her with memories of being picked on for being part Klingon. Being a parent is hard and in the Star Trek universe, that is no different!

Documenting your life creates a lineage that you pass down to future generations.

Dr. Tamara Nall Ezeanii, founder and legacy architect of the Junia movement, recently joined "The Ash Said It Show" to share the profound origin story behind this groundbreaking matriarchal naming tradition. As the official feminine counterpart to "Junior," the Junia initiative establishes a historic evolution in family lineage and gender equity by providing a structured framework for mothers to pass their full names down to their daughters. Under this modern cultural naming convention, daughters who inherit their mother's name can utilize the legal or honorary suffix Junia or Jn., addressing long-standing gaps in matrilineal visibility and women's identity inheritance. During the exclusive podcast episode, Dr. Tamara Nall Ezeanii discussed how she engineered this formal pathway to honor maternal legacy, drawing inspiration from the spiritual strength and historical leadership of the first-century biblical figure Junia. The movement transforms traditional naming practices into a formal rite of passage, offering specialized generational legacy tools via JuniaLegacy.com, including custom naming ceremonies, symbolic charters, and official legacy certificates. Recognized as a leading voice in women's empowerment and family history documentation, the Junia Naming Tradition was officially awarded the "Best Generational Naming Tradition" in the United States. The movement also anchors its cultural impact through National Junia Day, celebrated annually on March 1st to honor maternal identity, celebrate the unique mother-daughter bond, and empower future generations of women. Stream the full interview on "The Ash Said It Show" to discover how this matriarchal suffix is reshaping modern family trees and intergenerational wealth of identity. Web: https://junialegacy.com The Junia movement, founded by legacy architect Dr. Tamara Nall Ezeanii in early 2025, is a groundbreaking matriarchal naming tradition establishing gender equity in family lineage. By introducing **Junia** as the official feminine counterpart to "Junior," this cultural shift allows modern families to formally pass down a mother's full name to her daughter. A daughter inheriting her mother's first, middle, and last name can legally or honorarily use the suffix **Junia** or the written abbreviation **Jn.** (e.g., *Sarah Marie Smith, Junia* or *Sarah Marie Smith, Jn.*), and be addressed verbally as "Junia" just as a son is called "Junior." This feminine naming suffix and generational continuity initiative directly addresses historical gaps in female visibility and matrilineal heritage. Named after the first-century Christian woman Junia mentioned in Romans 16:7—historically celebrated as an outstanding apostle despite later translations attempts to masculinize her name to "Junias"—the movement reclaims a powerful mantle of female leadership and strength for future generations. Through its official platform at JuniaLegacy.com, the movement provides families with structured generational legacy tools and family rituals to celebrate this rite of passage. These include the **Junia™ Naming Ceremony**, a customizable template for family gatherings; the **Junia™ Legacy Certificate**, a physical heirloom documenting the shared maternal line; and the **Declaration of Naming Rights**, a symbolic charter establishing a daughter's place in her family history. Recognized as a leading framework for women's empowerment and identity inheritance, the Junia Naming Tradition was officially awarded the **"Best Generational Naming Tradition" in the United States** in 2025 for its cultural relevance and innovative thought leadership. Furthermore, **March 1st** is celebrated annually as **National Junia Day**, a dedicated day of recognition honoring matriarchal legacies and the mother-daughter bond. The Junia movement ensures that maternal heritage and female identity are prominently woven into modern family history and legal suffixes. - Ready to ignite the spark that levels up your entire life?

Send us Fan MailI Am That (Nisargadatta Maharaj): Abide in “I Am,” Non-Dual Awakening & the Fire of EarnestnessIn this episode, Dr. Downes and Adam Rizvi discuss Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj's Advaita Vedanta classic I Am That and his non-dual teaching to “abide in the I AM.” They describe Nisargadatta's background as a Bombay cigarette vendor, his fiery demeanor, and how he realized freedom after three years of single-pointed trust in his guru's simple instruction, without mantras or scripture. They explore key ideas from the book's Q&A dialogues: the “inner teacher” as the witness of mind, the shift from identifying as a body moving through time and space to recognizing all experience arises in awareness, and the importance of repeatedly returning to the immovable sense of being. They also unpack “earnestness” as intense longing—orientation, intensity, sincerity, and consistency—and recommend reading short passages nightly.00:55 Introducing I Am That01:19 Who Was Nisargadatta04:02 Why This Book Matters05:27 Lineage and Anti Scripture08:00 Abide in I Am Practice11:51 Effort and Awareness14:32 Reading a Key Passage18:59 Time Space as Experience25:36 Making It Practical28:52 Habit of Returning30:03 Earnestness and Desire31:34 Inner Renunciation33:36 Awakening Drive Question34:30 Earnestness Explained37:19 Fire for Awakening41:10 Embers Into Intensity43:17 Mystics Across Traditions46:13 Sufi Ishq and Fana47:55 Quote Off Returns48:54 Beyond God Concept54:06 Reading Practice Tips56:20 Closing and CigarettesSupport the showCopyright 2026 by Letters to the Sky

"Breath, bodies, river, smog."When I first heard this field recording I immediately heard a melody. I imagined the river carrying layers of song, remnants of the past softened and polished by the water over time. "The imagery of an overpass with the river flowing beneath reminded me of a thread or rope twisting, starting from one point and ending up in another. The traffic sounds serve as a backdrop to the initial melody (and the percussive transition) before converging with the layered melody, creating a sort of echo of the past. Lineage, water, icebergs, ships and cities that leave a legacy."Heavy bridge traffic in Belfast reimagined by Aemivore.

I don't bring guests on often, but when I do, it's because something really special happened. And this conversation with Jerzy Jung gives you all the juicy, intimate details.  Jerzy is a certified Reiki Practitioner, Grief Educator, and Intuitive Animal Reader and she came onto Eros Money Power Podcast after we had the most delicious exchange of offerings: She won a 1:1 VIP Telegram Day with me in The Woman Who Commands, and then I turned around and booked a reading with her for my cat Tahlia. What unfolded between us—the tears, the laughter, the absolutely unhinged wisdom that came through from my cat—felt too damn good not to share with you. This is a hilarious, hot, and deeply moving conversation. From Jersey's behind-the-scenes experience with my Telegram Day, her reason for stepping into my program Edge of Power to the moment Tahlia the cat telephathically requested snacks and offered kinky relationship advice, this episode is equal parts healing and unhinged—in the best possible way. Inside this episode you'll hear… What Jerzy got out of her Telegram Day with me and the one thing she says made the experience even better Why women need spaces where they can reveal the edgy thing without shame The power of Telegram coaching, audio intimacy, and being deeply witnessed by another woman Why Jerzy decided to join Edge of Power this summer and what pushed her over the edge to say yes What it was like being on the receiving end of Jerzy's intuitive animal reading The unexpected things my cat said that had me in tears and both of us laughing hysterically The grief story behind how Jerzy's gifts came online and launched her entire intuitive practice How animals act as spiritual teachers, emotional mirrors, and energetic stabilizers inside the home Why my cat has been trying to escape the house for years…the real reason behind it will genuinely surprise you CONNECT WITH JERZY JUNG  If this episode made you want to RUN (not walk!) to book an intuitive reading for yourself, a pet, or a passed loved one, I absolutely 10/10 recommend Jerzy.  I will absolutely be booking readings for myself, my dad who passed, and my three other cats. And since Jerzy has another 1:1 VIP Telegram Day with me soon and has entered Edge of Power to own her visibility edges…I have a feeling she's about to pop off online. So get in while her readings are $111 for the summer.  More About Jerzy: Jerzy Jung is a certified Reiki Practitioner and Grief Educator who specializes in remote Animal Communication, Intuitive Readings, and Mediumship.

In this episode of The Psychedelic Podcast, Paul F. Austin welcomes Jason Grechanik, master tabaquero and host of The Universe Within Podcast, for a deep exploration of sacred tobacco as Amazonian plant medicine. Find full show notes and links here: https://thethirdwave.co/podcast/episode-358/?ref=278  Sacred tobacco is usually understood in the West through the lens of cigarettes, addiction, and commercial misuse. But in Amazonian traditions, Nicotiana rustica is understood very differently: as a master plant, a protector, and a powerful medicine that requires lineage, discernment, and right relationship. Drawing from nearly a decade of Amazonian immersion and more than 1,000 people guided through plant ceremonies, Jason shares how tobacco is worked with in dieta, ayahuasca ceremony, energetic protection, and direct relationship with plant spirits. Paul and Jason also discuss cannabis, indigenous cosmologies, safety, and what tobacco's history can teach the modern psychedelic movement about power, humility, and proper containers. Jason Grechanik is a master tabaquero trained in the Mamankunawa tradition under curandero Don Ernesto Garcia Torres. With nearly a decade of Amazonian immersion and more than 1,000 people guided through plant ceremonies, Jason spent many years at the renowned Shipibo healing center Temple of the Way of Light. He is the host of The Universe Within Podcast, with 180+ episodes and 20K+ monthly listeners, co-founder of the Nicotiana Rustica project, and has been featured in DoubleBlind Magazine. Highlights: Jason's path into Amazonian tobacco medicine Tobacco beyond commercial cigarettes Why tobacco is considered a master plant Dieta as direct plant relationship Tobacco as portal and protector Ayahuasca, diagnosis, and plant doctors Safety, toxicity, and proper containers Jaguar and hummingbird tobacco archetypes Cannabis, dreams, and plant relationship Lessons for the psychedelic renaissance Episode Links: The Universe Within Podcast Nicotiana Rustica Project Jason on Instagram Episode Sponsors: The Practitioner Certification Program by Third Wave's Psychedelic Coaching Institute.

Ruth chapters 3 and 4 bring the story of redemption to its powerful conclusion as Naomi guides Ruth toward Boaz, the kinsman redeemer capable of restoring their family line and inheritance. At the threshing floor, Ruth makes a bold request for Boaz to take her under his protection through marriage, and Boaz responds with honor and integrity. Yet another redeemer stands closer in relation, forcing the matter to be settled publicly at the city gate before the elders of Bethlehem. This episode explores the ancient customs surrounding redemption, inheritance, marriage, and covenant loyalty in Israel during the time of the Judges. Through Boaz's redemption of Ruth and Naomi's family, the lineage of King David is preserved—ultimately pointing forward to the greater biblical theme of redemption fulfilled through Jesus Christ.

On this episode of The Bandwich Tapes, I sit down in person with drummer Joe Dyson, the first in-person conversation I've recorded for the show, and it couldn't have been with a better musician or person.  Joe is currently on the road with Pat Metheny, and we talk about the experience of being inside that music night after night, how the band continues to grow, how chemistry develops on the road, and what it truly means to live inside the music.We begin at the very beginning, Joe's earliest connection to the drums, growing up in church, watching his family play, and learning through imitation long before formal instruction. That foundation, playing with purpose, listening deeply, and serving something larger than yourself, continues to shape everything he does today.  From there, we dive into the cultural impact of growing up in New Orleans and the moment Joe realized just how unique that musical environment is. His reflections on culture, identity, and the preservation of tradition are powerful and deeply personal.One of the most meaningful parts of this conversation centers around mentorship, specifically his relationships with Alvin Batiste and Donald Harrison. Joe shares incredible stories about how these mentors shaped him, not just musically, but philosophically, and how their lessons continue to reveal themselves years later.  We also spend time talking about listening, not just as a musical skill, but as a life skill. Joe makes a compelling case that listening is at the center of everything: collaboration, groove, communication, and even being a better human being.We get into his artistic philosophy, how he balances honoring the lineage of great drummers like Elvin Jones, Roy Haynes, and Philly Joe Jones while still pushing forward creatively. His perspective on imitation, emulation, and innovation is something every musician can learn from.Joe also shares the incredible (and almost missed!) story of how he connected with Pat Metheny, starting with an email he nearly ignored, and what it's like working with an artist of that level in both live and studio settings.We wrap up by talking about his debut album, Look Within, and how stepping into the role of a bandleader changed his perspective, not just musically, but also in how he approaches collaboration and supports other artists.This is a conversation about growth, humility, and the lifelong process of becoming a musician.Key TakeawaysJoe Dyson explains why listening is the most important skill a musician can develop—on and off the stage.He shares how growing up in church shaped his sense of purpose and connection to music.Joe reflects on the unique cultural identity of New Orleans and its lasting influence on his playing.He discusses the profound impact of mentorship from Alvin Batiste and Donald Harrison.Joe breaks down the process of musical growth: imitation → emulation → innovation.He tells the story of nearly ignoring the email that led to working with Pat Metheny.Leading his own band gave him a deeper respect for collaboration and the responsibilities of being a bandleader.Music from the EpisodePious Walk - Joe DysonForward - Joe DysonFleeting Faith - Joe DysonIn On It - Pat Metheny Side Eye IIINaysayers - Joe DysonAbout the PodcastThe Bandwich Tapes is my chance to sit down with musicians, composers, songwriters, and creative artists I admire for honest conversations about craft, collaboration, and the deeper musical ideas that shape their work.

While men secure multi-million dollar business deals in between holes on the golf course and shake hands over top-shelf scotch and imported cigars in the private gentlemen's club... You're shamed for securing thousands...millions of dollars...working from your bed, from a VIP day in luxe hotel lobby, from a bath house or nail appointment, from a private rooftop party, from a Zoom call where your baby is hanging off your boob as a client says "YES!" in your DM's.  All because you're a woman who dared to mix business with pleasure. Get paid from pleasure. Network and secure connections, deals, clients, and investors (or serve your clients) in locations, experiences, and ways that are drenched in pleasure, play, luxury, leisure.  Why are men allowed to mix business with pleasure and it's considered standard business practice and professional...whereas, women are slut shamed, called a whore, and labeled unprofessional, lazy, and inappropriate? Why is it ok when men do it, but not ok when women do it?  That's the EXACT question at the center of this episode. And what I reveal will change how you view women, sex, money, and business. Women were taught to see pleasure as irresponsible, distracting, and unserious…while entire male power structures were built inside luxury, leisure, exclusivity, and indulgence. This episode is an audio lesson pulled from my 14-week program, House of the Courtesan, which is included if you sign up for my 3-month 1:1 May only offer, Harlot...or my year-long devotional mentorship, Courtesan's Lineage (with a VIP wine bath weekend in Chicago included).

Main Idea:  In Genesis 11 we will learn about Nimrod and how it's possible to invest a lot of time and effort to ultimately fail. Message Notes: http://bible.com/events/49612006

When legacy meets lethal precision, something powerful happens. And that's exactly what's unfolding with LINEAGE #1 the newly funded action thriller comic from legendary martial artist Doug Marcaida. This isn't just another action book. This is heritage forged in steel. Discipline translated into dynamic panels. Filipino Martial Arts woven into narrative DNA. Doug has spent decades mastering the blade now he's mastering the page. LINEAGE isn't about violence. It's about responsibility. Code. Identity. The weight of what you inherit and what you pass on. Kickstarter backers stepped up because authenticity cuts through noise. LINEAGE #1 proves that real-world experience adds gravity to fiction. The result? A comic that doesn't just entertain it educates, respects culture, and delivers pulse-pounding action. And if this is just issue one? The saga is just beginning.

How did you observe your ancestors relating to their bodies, to the natural world, to nourishment, to rest? What memories do you carry of connection- or disconnection- in your lineage? So many of us today experience connection to the earth and to our own bodies as something fractured or difficult to access, but for most humans throughout history these relationships were simply woven into daily life. Today I am sharing my interview on the Homestead & Heal podcast- Lindsay & Scott Courcelle and I discuss how foodways, embodiment, and intimacy with the natural world have been disrupted over time, and how we are personally seeking to relearn our innate human capacity to relate to the Earth and to ourselves within our own lives and families.

Joe "Big House" Kenn coached strength in the NFL for nearly a decade. He sits down with Tom Barry for four decades of lessons. From a guard at Wake Forest to leading strength programs at Boise State, Utah, Arizona State, and Louisville, Joe Kenn has built one of the most decorated coaching careers in the NSCA. He created the Tier System, served as head strength and conditioning coach for the Carolina Panthers from 2011 to 2019, and is the only coach to have won both the NSCA Collegiate Strength Coach of the Year and the NFL Strength and Conditioning Coach of the Year. He now runs Big House Power and works with elite strongman athletes including Brian Shaw and Tom Evans. In this episode, Joe and Tom dig into how strong is strong enough at the highest levels, how NIL and the transfer portal have rewired strength coaching, how Joe interpreted Louie Simmons rather than copying him, practice-based evidence vs evidence-based practice, why he stopped programming power cleans for three years at Arizona State, peak velocity over average velocity, and why the strength coach often has to be the sacrificial lamb in a team sport setting.

On this episode of the Mastery Unleashed Podcast, Christie Ruffino interviews Marina Tudor, a psychotherapist and trauma expert who specializes in helping high-achieving women heal and “unbend” their internal patterns. Drawing from her own experiences with neurological challenges such as epilepsy, spatial disorientation, and autism traits, Marina developed a deep understanding of neuroplasticity and the brain's ability to rewire itself.Marina's work focuses on healing trauma without repeatedly talking about it. Instead, she uses neuroscience-based techniques and micro-habit reprogramming to shift trauma patterns at their root, helping clients break free from limiting beliefs like “I'm not enough” or “I must carry everything.” She explains that traditional therapy can sometimes reinforce trauma by repeatedly revisiting painful experiences, whereas her approach emphasizes rewiring emotional and neurological responses for faster, lasting transformation.Listeners learn practical strategies such as aligning thoughts, emotions, and actions, paying attention to physical symptoms as indicators of emotional patterns, and recognizing when they are operating from fear versus vision. Marina emphasizes that trauma can block intuition, leadership, and success, and that healing unlocks higher performance and clarity.The episode highlights how personal adversity can become a powerful mission, empowering entrepreneurs to transform their lives, businesses, and impact through deeper self-awareness and healing.ABOUT MARINAMarina was not born into coherence; she created it.Diagnosed in childhood with petit mal epilepsy, autism, ADHD, spatial disorientation, tone deafness, and profound left-right confusion, her early life was shaped by sensory-motor fragmentation. Space, rhythm, sound, these were foreign languages to a body unsync'ed with symmetry. But from age three, she began retraining perception. She didn't just adapt, she recoded reality.By age 10, Marina became Romania's national swimming champion in butterfly, transforming neurological chaos into disciplined form. She now speaks seven languages, guided by an autistic brain that hears “music as math.” She holds dual BA and MA degrees, with a thesis on Emotional Reality, a healing modality she developed. She began her PhD work before transferring out to follow a deeper path of integration.As a licensed psychotherapist (LCPC, NCC, CCTP, C-DBT, EMDR clinician), she's clocked over 20,000 client hours across the U.S. in trauma and crisis, autism, grief and loss, death and dying, and integrative medicine, backed by more than 54,000 hours of study. Clients report 92–94% transformational outcomes over the past decade.

In this first episode of our Daughters series, we're diving into the powerful and unexpected story of Rahab—a woman whose life reminds us that no one is too far gone for God's redemption. We unpack how her bold faith in the middle of a broken story reveals the heart of God toward His daughters. As we explore her story in the city of Jericho, we're reminded that God sees, pursues, and deeply loves each of us—no matter our past. We also share personal stories of how God has pursued us in our own lives, showing us that His love crosses every boundary and reaches into every season. This episode is an invitation to see yourself in scripture, to believe that God is after your heart, and to trust that He's still writing redemption stories today—including yours.

Enjoy this episode? Please share it with at least ONE friend who you think needs to hear it!Investigative mythologist William Henry explains how Babylonian prophecy, Judeo-Christian tradition, and Islam converge on the Temple Mount and the Ark of the Covenant, and why that timeline may still be unfolding today, in episode 244 of the Far Out with Faust podcast.William Henry is an investigative mythologist, author, and longtime researcher of human spiritual transformation, known for his work on Ancient Aliens and his Gaia series The Awakened Soul: The Lost Science of Ascension. With over 30 years of research and multiple books including Cloak of the Illuminati and The Watchers, his work explores the intersection of ancient texts, ascension science, and emerging technologies, including transhumanism and the evolving relationship between consciousness and the human body.In this conversation, Faust and William Henry challenge the conventional view of the Ark of the Covenant, suggesting it may have been something far more than a relic: a form of ancient technology tied to human transformation. They explore how overlapping messianic timelines across Judaism, Christianity, and Islam continue to shape real-world events, while tracing a hidden thread that links the Anunnaki, Osiris, and Jesus through a shared concept of the “garment of light.” As the discussion moves into the present, the question shifts: are transhumanism and artificial intelligence a break from the past, or the latest phase of the same ancient impulse to transcend the human body?In this episode: • Temple Mount prophecy: why Judaism, Christianity, and Islam all point to the same contested site • Ark of the Covenant: relic, weapon, or lost technology tied to ascension and human transformation • Solomon's Temple and Babylon: how destruction, exile, and prophecy created a timeline still unfolding today • The Messianic race: why multiple religions may be working toward the same prophesied endgame • The “garment of light”: the hidden link between the Anunnaki, Osiris, and Jesus • Iraq Stargate theory: what Saddam Hussein was allegedly searching for in ancient Babylon • Sacred sound and resonance: the lost technology behind megaliths and suppressed scientific breakthroughs • The Anunnaki and human origins: genetic intervention, the neocortex, and the rise of civilization • Transhumanism and AI: are modern technologies continuing an ancient blueprint for human evolution • The future of humanity: what happens when AI replaces labor and reshapes human purposeIf these ancient timelines, religious prophecies, and emerging technologies are all pointing in the same direction, the real question isn't what's coming — it's whether we're recognizing it in time.00:00:00 - Teaser & Introduction00:03:11 - The Middle East, The Temple Mount & The Ark of the Covenant00:08:22 - Messianic Prophecies & Modern Political Symbolism00:17:16 - Saddam Hussein, Nebuchadnezzar & The Babylon Connection00:23:40 - The Anunnaki, Osiris, Jesus & The Transmittable Garment00:28:51 - Ancient Genetic Alteration & The Awakening of the Neocortex00:32:42 - Rethinking AI, Transhumanism & Scientific Materialism00:46:10 - The Fall from Eden & Technology as a Tool for Ascension00:55:49 - Sacred Geometry, Crop Circles & The Shroud of Turin00:59:53 - The Lineage of Ascension & Avatars01:05:39 - Sound Frequency, Megaliths & Suppressed Ancient Tech01:14:12 - The Next 50 Years: Singularity, Awakening & The Soul01:27:11 - The Viral Story: Saddam Hussein's Secret Iraqi Stargate01:34:42 - Outro & Final ThoughtsCheck out William Henry's bookshttps://www.amazon.com/stores/author/B006FYUDHUConnect with William Henrywe'd love to hear from you

Title: How to Make a RippleScripture Reading: Genesis 41:14-16Series: Be Bold!Can one single act of boldness really change the course of a nation and preserve the future of God's people? In this message, we use the acronym R.I.P.P.L.E. to examine how Joseph's one bold act ripples outward. It begins with Joseph Revealing the Source by boldly crediting God for his ability to interpret dreams, which leads to Impacting the Throne as Pharaoh himself acknowledges the Spirit of God. This faithfulness transforms Joseph's Personal Identity, where even his Egyptian name points to the living God, and leads to a Promotion to Power that places him over the resources of Egypt. Furthermore, we see how his Lineage and Legacy create inroads for God's influence in a foreign land, ultimately Ensuring the Covenant by positioning Joseph to save the family of Jacob during a global famine. Determine what 'bold rock' God is calling you to throw today—whether it is sharing a testimony or crediting Him in your workplace—and trust Him to handle the ripple effects.

Given by Gengyoko Tim Wicks at City Center on May 2nd, 2026 The talk discusses the significance of the Platform Sutra in Zen practice, highlighting its role in the exploration of sudden versus gradual enlightenment and the inherent purity of the mind. The discussion also emphasizes the historical continuity of Zen teachings through the teacher-student lineage, notably the transmission from Bodhidharma to his disciple Huike, and the subsequent teachings encapsulated in the Platform Sutra during the Tang Dynasty. The talk underscores the importance of direct experience and mindfulness in daily activities as a means to realize liberation from suffering.Platform Sutra: Explores sudden vs. gradual enlightenment, emphasizing the inherent purity of the mind, and the unity of all things.Lankavatara Sutra: Referred to as the mind-only sutra, it discusses the manifestation of all phenomena from the mind and relates to the central Buddhist theme of transforming suffering through mindfulness.Dhammapada: An early Buddhist text illustrating the precedence and influence of the mind on lived experience and suffering.Zen Mind, Beginner's Mind by Shunryu Suzuki: Explores the importance of having a beginner's mind, which allows for many possibilities, as opposed to an expert's mind, which is more limited.Lineage of Bodhidharma: Chronicles the teacher-student relationship which maintains the Zen tradition, beginning with Bodhidharma as the first ancestor bringing Chan (Zen) to China.Koans: Referenced to illustrate important Zen teachings, such as the dialogue between Huike and Bodhidharma about pacifying the mind.

You say you want more visibility, more eyes on your work, more clients, more influence. But what if the very thing you want requires you to be seen in ways your nervous system doesn't feel safe with yet? In this episode, we're breaking down the real reason you're not growing…and it's not your strategy, your content, or the algorithm. It's what you're still unwilling to reveal. And what shameful or scandalous skeletons you're afraid people will find in your closet if they look a little harder… Because your level of exposure will never exceed what you feel safe being seen in. And until you change that, you'll keep hiding in plain sight. Inside this episode you'll hear… Why your nervous system, not your strategy, is calling the shots and setting the ceiling on your visibility The unconscious fear of being exposed (and what you're actually afraid people will see) How shame around your past, your current reality, or your too muchness is keeping you stuck in good girl bondage The hidden link between exposure, magnetism, command, and actual client conversion How to alchemize shame into erotic energy—and turn that into power, visibility, money, and opportunity. If you're ready to stop censoring yourself and start being fully seen the way that actually creates demand, clients, and influence... This is exactly the work we do inside The Woman Who Commands and Edge of Power. The Woman Who Commands: You hold the power to command your reality and bend the world to your will. It makes people beg to pay you, serve you, and join your revolution. It's time to unlock and own that power.

3. Epic Plots, Underworlds, and the Human Cost of Destiny Guest Authors: Scott McGill and Susanna Wright (5)This segment explores the *Aeneid*'s plot, following Aeneas's journey from the ashes of Troy to the founding of a new Roman lineage in Italy. The authors examine Virgil's "conversation" with Homer, blending Odyssean wandering with Iliadic warfare. They delve into the terrifyingly visual depiction of the underworld and the "magnificently gory" battle scenes that reflected ancient Roman aesthetics. Significant focus is placed on the human cost of Aeneas's mission, particularly the tragic treatment of female characters like Dido, whose powerful voice often overshadows the hero's own restrained and sometimes frustrating inner life.
