(recorded on 3/1/26) - Breht went on Workers' Lit as a guest! "The American ruling class is at war. Physically, they are at war with Iran, pummeling the country with unrelenting airstrikes, slaughtering civilians, and doing their best to make yet another nation unlivable. But they are fighting another war: a psychological war against every one of us. They are building a world of declining literacy, misinformation, confusion, and fear. Combine those two wars and you get an apathetic American populace even as its own country murders untold innocents Breht O'Shea of RevLeft joins Aysha, Jen, and Jacob to discuss these dual wars and how we can fight back."

On this episode of Conduct Detrimental: THE Sports Law Podcast, Dan Lust (@SportsLawLust) and Mike Kravchenko (Watch on YouTube) are back for a catch-up week packed with stories spanning baseball, college football, the NBA, UFC, and the Olympics.The episode opens with the bombshell resignation of Tony Clark as executive director of the MLBPA following allegations of an inappropriate relationship with a family member he hired at the union. Dan and Mike break down why the personal scandal may only be the tip of the iceberg, drawing parallels to the NFLPA's Lloyd Howell situation and raising questions about self-dealing, misuse of union funds, and what Bruce Meyer's interim appointment means heading into a critical CBA negotiation year.From there, the duo covers the quiet settlement of the Jaden Rashada NIL lawsuit — one of the most closely watched cases in college sports law — and what the undisclosed resolution tells us about leverage, discovery, and the war of attrition in NIL litigation. They then pivot to the University of Cincinnati's lawsuit against transfer quarterback Brendan Sorsby over a $1 million buyout clause, and what it signals for the future of revenue-sharing contracts and the transfer portal.Dan and Mike also tackle the NBA's escalating tanking crisis, including Adam Silver's record fines, the crisis summit with all 30 GMs, and what a potential draft overhaul could look like. The conversation then shifts to the UFC, Dana White's First Amendment stance, Sean Strickland's mic cut at the post-fight presser, and the tension brewing between the UFC's culture and its new Paramount partnership.The episode closes with Dan's passionate recommendation of the Jim Thorpe documentary Lit by Lightning — which he calls the greatest sports documentary he's ever seen — plus a shoutout to the Steph Curry film The Goat, and a listener challenge: first 10 people to watch either and send proof win a Conduct Detrimental shirt.Let us know your thoughts!***Have a topic you want to write about?

There's a Lit song that's been stuck in my head for weeks: "My Own Worst Enemy." And it's the perfect metaphor for my entire solo journey.I've blocked myself at every stage—consulting, fractional leadership, and now with The Escapee Collective. Not intentionally, but by doing what corporate trained me to do: overanalyze, overstructure, and wait for perfection before taking action.In this episode, I walk you through the three times I made the same mistake—and what I'm doing differently now.If you're overthinking, over-structuring, or waiting for the "perfect" website, pitch deck, or system before you start—this one's for you.In This Episode:The consulting mistake: Building the perfect website, pitch deck, and pricing before having a single conversation with a client (and why it led to zero wins)The fractional repeat: Doing the EXACT same thing again—new methodology, new deck, same lack of resultsThe Escapee Collective lesson: How TikTok took off with zero plan, then how I complicated it again with masterminds, classes, and modules—and why I had to simplifyWhy corporate trains us backwards: Plan first, act second works in corporate—but solo requires the oppositeWhat actually works: Conversations, experimentation, messy wins FIRST—then structureThe 79% reality: Why most burned-out corporate workers won't take action (and how to be in the 35% who do)How to catch yourself: Recognizing when you're building systems before you have proofKey Takeaway:Action beats planning. Momentum beats perfection. Get early wins first—THEN build the structure around what's working.
This week Evan and Bill are joined by the folks from the Worker's Lit podcast to talk about the 2025 film "The Running Man," directed by Edgar Wright and starring Glen Powell, Colman Domingo, Emilia Jones, William H. Macy, Josh Brolin, and Michael Cera. With a special appearance by Lee Pace. This episode is part two of our collaboration with Worker's Lit covering a book and the movie based on it, in this case the Stephen King novel by the same name. During the episode we discuss how much more capably Wright and Powell portray class consciousness than King, note how the movie improved on the book, and remained loyal to it by having a less than satisfying ending.Check out the episode we did with Worker's Lit here!Guest LinksOfficial WebsiteWorker's Lit on InstagramWorker's Lit on YouTubeLeft of the Projector LinksOfficial WebsiteLeft of the Projector on InstagramLeft of the Projector on PatreonLeft of the Projector on ThreadlessHost LinksEvan's LetterboxdBill's InstagramBill's LetterboxdWard's InstagramWard's Letterboxd
Leïla Slimani, author of "The Country of Others" & "Watch Us Dance"Leila Slimani is a highly acclaimed French-Moroccan author who has written some absolutely fantastic novels over the last few years. She burst into the mainstream consciousness when she won the prestigious Prix Goncourt in France in 2016 for her second novel Chanson Douce, which was translated into English in 2018 as The Perfect Nanny in the US, or Lullaby in the UK.She followed this up with non-fiction work as well as a fantastic trilogy which is two-thirds finished, called “Le Pays des Autres” (The Country of Others) in which the second novel “Regardez-nous danser” (Watch Us Dance) has just been translated into English.In today's episode, Leïla and I discuss, as always, the four books which have most influenced her writing – spanning all the way from early childhood literary beginnings, all the way to some very contemporary picks.Lit with Charles loves reviews.

In this relaxed Q&A episode, Charles answers listeners' questions about his reading life, from how he structures his days around books to the different rhythms that shape how he approaches “easy” versus “demanding” reads. He shares his flexible methods, whether that means devouring a page turner in one long sitting or slowly metabolising a dense classic in small, manageable bursts. The conversation moves through travel habits, why he still prefers physical books over a Kindle, and the slightly chaotic reality of keeping notes while reading.Charles also reflects on his favourite Russian author, the challenge and reward of tackling big novels, and the myth of daily page targets, including his own extreme “big reading days.” He touches on becoming a parent and the environment he hopes to create around books, before revealing the story behind a hidden novel he once wrote purely for the joy of the process. A candid, thoughtful glimpse behind the scenes for fellow readers and the reading-curious alike.Lit with Charles loves reviews.

Invention and re-invention are themes that are set deep in the American psyche and the American novel. My guest today is the American novelist JR Thornton, author of the upcoming novel “Lucien” to be published next month. It's a tale of intrigue, set at Harvard, in the modern day, where a freshman artist is dazzled by his Euro-glamorous room-mate, and led down a tempting path of forgery and deceit. Imagine “The Secret History” by Donna Tartt, meets “The Goldfinch”, also by Donna Tartt, and you're halfway there. In the book, JR Thornton, himself a Harvard alumnus, evokes the immense privilege that remains in certain pockets of these high-powered universities and the desperation of many outsiders to fit in. In our interview, JR Thorton talks about the four books that helped shape his literary path, and specifically this book, so if you're in the market for recommendations of great books about re-invention, re-emergence and revenge, you're in the right place!Lit with Charles loves reviews.

In this episode, I'm joined by Lucy Caldwell, ahead of the publication of her new short story collection Devotions, due out in April 2026. We may be early to the party, but this conversation offers a rich introduction to a book that explores love, loss, longing, and the everyday objects and rituals we turn into acts of devotion. From a Belfast theatre troupe taking an experimental Hamlet to New York, to stories that edge into the metafictional and the uncanny, Devotions is a collection of intimate, luminous portraits of desire and regret.Our conversation unfolds as something of a masterclass in writing. Lucy reflects on her life and work, from growing up in Belfast during the Troubles in an ecumenical family, to building an acclaimed literary career marked by depth, empathy, and formal curiosity. We talk about how and why she writes, her path to international recognition, and the four books that shaped her literary imagination. Thoughtful, generous, and quietly inspiring, this is an episode especially rich for readers and writers alike.Lit with Charles loves reviews.

Hoy nos acompaña Cristobal Fones, sacerdote jesuita, músico y compositor chileno muy reconocido por su música religiosa contemporánea, litúrgica y pastoral. El Padre Cristobal hoy vive en Roma y es el director Internacional de la Red Mundial de Oración del Papa. Con él conversamos acerca de lo que significa tratar de vivir como cristianos hoy en día, tratando de imitar el modo de proceder de Jesús y de hacer sentir al otromás humano. El Padre Cristobal nació en 1975 en Santiago de Chile, en una familia numerosa. Estudió en un colegio jesuita e ingresó a la Compañía de Jesús en 1994 después de comenzar a cursar sociología en la universidad. Completó su primer ciclo de estudios teológicos en la Pontificia Universidad Católica de Chile en Santiago, y obtuvo una licenciatura canónica en Teología Sacramental y Litúrgica en la Universidad Católica de América en Washington, DC. Además, estudió música en el Berklee College of Music de Boston. Fue ordenado sacerdote en agosto de 2007 y emitió sus votos religiosos perpetuos en noviembre de 2014 en el Santuario de San Alberto Hurtado de Santiago de Chile.La música ha estado siempre presente en su ministerio sacerdotal y en su propia experiencia de oración. Ha compuesto y grabado muchísimas canciones, participado de un sinfín de conciertos, presentaciones musicales y giras a lo largo y ancho de Chile y el exterior. Ha lanzado numerosísimos discos, dirigido coros y realizado diversas actividades pastorales, donde se destaca el acompañamiento de jóvenes. Ha logrado hacer más accesible la música católica en Chile y en el resto del mundo de habla hispana. Incluso en lengua indígena, ya que compuso la misa Ülkantun luego de realizar una experiencia pastoral en el sur de Chile junto al pueblo mapuche durante sus años de formación. “No tengo plata ni oro, pero te doy lo que tengo”: un espacio donde encontrarnos con el que verdaderamente nos llena, para que nos tome de la mano, nos levante y nos pongaen camino nuevamente.

Content warning: this episode discusses sexual assault and feminicide in detail and may be distressing for some listeners. Please take care while listening and step away if needed.In this episode, I'm joined by Swiss novelist Michelle Steinbeck to discuss her haunting second novel Favorita, newly translated into English, and the urgent subject of feminicide, the murder of women, often by men. Through literature, we explore how gendered violence, authoritarian power and historical memory intertwine. Favorita follows Fila, a young woman who uncovers the possibility that her mother, once the ringleader of a collective of sex workers, was murdered by a shadowy network of fascists. Moving between post-war Italy and the present, the novel blends surreal, ghostly imagery with political realism to examine how violence against women reverberates across generations.Our conversation explores writing with ghosts, literature as resistance, and the importance of giving narrative shape to erased lives. Steinbeck reflects on fascist afterlives, memory, and the ways the past continues to shape women's bodies and choices today. Michelle's four books were:Paolo Falconi: La Bella Elvira (1947)Leanne Shapton: Guest Book (2019) Maggie Nelson: Jane A Murder (2005)Goliarda Sapienza: The Art Of Joy (1994)Lit with Charles loves reviews.

Cool story about a class ring that was found by a guy with a metal detector & returned to it's original owner. A dramatic video of firefighters in Michigan who rescued several people and a pet from an apartment fire. And another great story about a woman who donated a kidney to her best friend. A study took a look at how much various mascots earn…and it's got us thinking we chose the wrong career path.

What if alcohol isn't the problem… but the placeholder?In this episode of Sober & Lit, Ruby and Susan are joined by Anna Donaghey—certified alcohol mindset and life coach, award-winning podcast host, and author of What Are You Thirsty For?—for a conversation that goes way deeper than drinking less. Anna shares her journey from teenage drinking and a booze-soaked career in advertising to a life of clarity, purpose, and alcohol-free freedom—and the moment she realized alcohol was doing jobs it was never meant to do.Together, they explore powerful questions like: ✔️ What are you actually thirsting for? ✔️ Is your life good enough—or are you using alcohol to tolerate it? ✔️ What might be possible if you stopped numbing and started listening? This episode unpacks the hidden roles alcohol plays, why rock bottom is not required, and how reclaiming your desires can radically change your life.Whether you're sober curious, newly alcohol-free, or reimagining midlife on your own terms, this conversation will challenge you, inspire you, and invite you to want more—from yourself and your life.

'Twas the night of the O3L Holiday Party, and all through the cabin The drinks were a-flowin, and the friends were a-blabbin' Meanwhile, the snow piled up, it was treacherous out there, And Bob Dylan's words rang true, you ain't going nowhere. The turntable hummed with a familiar warm crackle, As laughter rang out with a loud joyful cackle. Mixtapes were stacked by the glow of the fire, Each one tells a story, a hope, a desire. (Oh, and incidentally, cassettes melt, so that's a really bad idea.) From post-punk to new wave, these songs tell our truth, We argued what really defined the music of our youth. There were games full of nonsense, of trivia and cheer, “Did this actually happen?”—the answer unclear. But what clatter arose, and echoed all through the city It was flippin' “Word Girl” by Scritti Politti, But oh how they danced, some arguably twerked Brett was seething in the corner, like a judgmental jerk And just when they thought it couldn't get any funner, “Come on Eileen” came on, by Dexy's Midnight Runners. We all joined in on the chorus, what a jubilant sound, That is, except Uncle Gregg, but perhaps he'll come around. So settle in close as for the 6th year, Our holiday tradition is finally here. Tonight, we're all snowed in at O3L cabin So let the memories start, Let the party begin! Join Uncle Gregg and Brett for a holiday party filled with laughter, (mostly) good cheer, and plenty of holiday spirit(s) - including our friends Joshua, Kimberly (who brought along Timmy the Taxi with her!), Lance, Paul, and Matt & Stefan from Paisley Underground legends The Rain Parade. We make the most of the blizzard-like conditions, making themed mixtapes, playing brand new O3L games ("That's Soooo 2025!") and Alternativity") and spinning future holiday classics by Swansea Sound ("Not My Order"), Mossy Ledge ("Christmas Lights"), Autos ("X-Mas Eve At The Metro"), and Slow Owls ("Counting Down To Christmas"). It may be freezing outside the cabin, but inside we're gettin' LIT! Happy Holidays to you and yours from O3L! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
Send us a textBefore penning the lyrics to “America the Beautiful,” Katharine Lee Bates shone a spotlight on the invisible (and not so invisible) labor tackled by an unsung Christmas heroine, Mrs. Claus. Bates's 1888 poem “Goody Claus on a Sleigh Ride” imagines Santa's spouse setting the record straight about who really does most of the work in preparation for Christmas. In this holiday episode, Amy confesses her own cynical feelings about the Yuletide season and reads this humorous poem with its surprisingly satirical and feminist bent.

This week, we're revisiting a classic episode inspired by a late '90s pop-punk anthem: "My Own Worst Enemy" by Lit. The title of that song perfectly captures a feeling common to those with ADHD. We often feel like our own greatest obstacle, plagued by an endless supply of self-destructive behaviors stemming directly from the condition. Counterproductive manifestations like poor time management, hyper-focusing on low-priority tasks, overcommitting, and procrastination can leave us feeling incredibly frustrated. We're talking about our "worst self"—the version of us that emerges in ways we later regret or that seem to actively work against our own interests. While the internet is full of advice on how to become your best self, the reality is that many of these frustrating behaviors do not reflect our value as people. Instead, they are often a reflection of our unmet needs and coping mechanisms. In this important rebroadcast, we discuss: How this "worst self" manifests in the context of ADHD. Why we should extend a bit more empathy toward these maladaptive behaviors. Practical ways to work on moving forward—not necessarily toward a flawless best self, but at least toward a better one. Tune in to explore this internal conflict and learn how to find compassion for the parts of you that struggle. Support me on Patreon Ask me a question on my Contact Page Find the show note at HackingYourADHD.com/188 This Episode's Top Tips Approach the idea of your worst self with empathy. Focus on the fact that you developed these maladaptive behaviors for a reason. Pay attention to the situations and emotions that trigger your worst behaviors to anticipate and manage them more effectively. Often, our maladaptive behaviors come out when we're not doing a good job of meeting our basic needs. If we're engaging in numbing behaviors, we can look below the symptoms to try and see what's setting them off.
Imagine taking any challenge in your life, a stalled project, a frustrating roadblock, even a dream that feels out of reach and turning it into an opportunity for rapid innovation, creativity, and impact. That is what this conversation is all about.In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Jeff Karp, a Harvard and MIT Professor, inventor, and bestselling author who has spent his life “thinking about thinking.” Jeff transformed undiagnosed ADHD into a superpower for creativity and leadership, and today he teaches people how to unlock breakthrough ideas by disrupting old patterns, reconnecting with curiosity, and engaging the biology of innovation.You will learn how to unlearn outdated habits, how to use nature as a playbook for fresh thinking, why neurodiversity is a competitive advantage, and how to turn ideas into action with speed and clarity. Jeff also shares tools from his book LIT that help you energize your brain, spark ideas, and ignite action in minutes a day.Whether you feel stuck, overwhelmed, uninspired, or simply ready to think at a higher level, this episode will show you how to access creativity on demand, break through plateaus, and reconnect with what lights you up./ / / Ready to upgrade your brain? / / /Choose your own adventure.

In this episode, Breht speaks with Jacob Dallas-Main, co-host of Workers' Lit and author of They Called Her Rebel; a dazzling fusion of fantasy, class struggle, and storytelling set in a world of debtors' camps, collapsing empires, and revolutionary possibility. The two discuss how speculative fiction can illuminate political struggle, not merely as metaphor but as a call to break the boundary between audience and participant. They explore what makes a work of art revolutionary rather than consumable, the dangers of reactionary storytelling in popular culture, declining literacy in the U.S., the threats posed by AI, the need for socialist transformation, and why imagination is a vital force in times of despair. From Le Guin to Kim Stanley Robinson to Lee Mandelo, they trace a lineage of speculative art that refuses cynicism and insists on transformation -- both political and personal.
