In this episode, Gregg and Ron expose the psychological. biological, and technological forces affecting today's politics. Raise your awareness. Take control of the cycle. Stay sane while staying engaged. We need perspective, especially about the power of negative news.Summary of PaperHooked on the Drama, the Uncertainty, the Outrage: Why We Can't Look Away & How to Break FreeThe Kitchen Table-Gregg Cochlan IntroductionWhat began as a personal inquiry into why I—and so many others—feel hooked by negative stories, news and people. I asked myself: Why do I keep getting pulled into negative news—especially stories about- him (you know who I am talking about) —even when I don't want to? This paper has revealed that our attention isn't weak or broken. It's human. We are biologically, psychologically, and socially wired to notice threats, react to injustice, and seek certainty in chaos. And in today's media environment, those very instincts are being exploited—by algorithms, by political figures, and by a news economy that profits from keeping us anxious, outraged, and constantly checking for updates.As much as it pains me to say it, but his media dominance—it may not be an accident. It appears to be the product of a unique convergence of psychological insight, technological mastery, ideological resonance, and social polarization. Understanding this is not just informative—it's liberating. Because once we understand why we're drawn in, we can start to choose whether to stay there.The real power in this inquiry is not in diagnosing the problem, but in offering practical strategies to disrupt the cycle. From setting boundaries and curating our news intake, to becoming mindful of our emotional triggers and actively seeking diverse perspectives, we can begin to shift from passive consumers to intentional citizens.This isn't about tuning out—it's about tuning in with discernment. It's about protecting our attention as one of our most precious resources.Along the way, I found language, research, and examples that helped me name what was happening: the dopamine-driven seeking system, moral outrage as reward, negativity bias, confirmation bias, the need for closure, and his's strategic manipulation of all of it. But what mattered most was discovering that there are things we can do about it.This isn't about tuning out the world or becoming passive. It's about learning how to stay informed without being consumed. It's about stepping out of the automatic stimulus-response loop—and choosing a more thoughtful, intentional way to engage. I didn't want to stay in that loop. I wanted to understand it so I could interrupt it—and reclaim some agency over what I give my time, energy, and attention to.I wrote this for myself, but also for anyone else who has found themselves stuck in the same cycle. If that's you, then here's what I've learned:Notice the next outrage and “pause” before clicking.You can ask whether a headline is helping or hijacking your attention.You can be informed without being inflamed.Interrupt the next dopamine loop.It's about reclaiming our emotional sovereignty in a world that profits from taking it away

Kiwi icon Lucy Lawless has shifted her focus. She's made the move from actor to director – her debut film a documentary about Margaret Moth, an unconventional war correspondent. The documentary ‘Never Look Away' premiered at last year's New Zealand International Film Festival and is coming to Rialto Channel today as a special celebration of International Women's Day. Lawless told Jack Tame she was approached by Moth's best friend to make the documentary, and was immediately swept up by the idea. “I wrote back immediately, I mean, within 90 seconds, making all these crazy promises,” she told Tame. “Saying, I will find the money, I will find the producers – the story has to be told.” LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

SHE'S PREGNANT, LOOK AWAY! by 101.9POR
Dave and Paul are back! That's right the brothers are here to talk about six more films that struck a chord with them this week. Including, "The Panama Papers," "Joint Security Area," "Best in Show," "A Taxi Driver," "Backdraft," and "I Saw the Devil."
Last week we looked at the Greek word apherontes eis, which translated literally is “away from look toward.” And we shared how we must look away from certain things if our eyes are going to focus on Jesus Christ. This week Dr. John Snyder and Teddy James share specific things we must look away from. First on the list is the temptation to long for the old life. This common refrain is found in the book of Exodus. The Israelites complain that life in Egypt was better than walking in the desert with God. The Christian can be tempted to look fondly upon life before Christ. We must fight this. Second on the list are sins that perhaps were not very tempting at one time, but they are now. It will be impossible to run the race of life with Jesus if we hold on to sins such as greed or the idolization of people's opinions. The third item to look away from are the good things. Paul said he counted all things as rubbish. He was willing to let go of all he knew previously, all his “right” upbringing, in order to gain Christ. If we as individual Christians or careful churches take pride in our past relationship with God, we will not run today's race well.

Today on our show, we bring you a story by Alison Colwell. At age 8, Alison was responsible for making sure her mother's epileptic seizure didn't kill her. In this essay, Alison takes us to a moment in the hospital where if she'd looked away, her mom might have died.

You know that person you know - the one who exaggerates everything? It's kind of like that story of the blameless “boy who cried wolf” who lives in fantasy land and never takes responsibility for anything - and this person seemingly has not only the best life anyone could ever imagine, with loads of money, tons of friends, amazing vacations, but also, nothing ever seems to go wrong? (Instagram is a drug, friends). Now imagine that friend is running (again) for President of the United States. And that friend is bringing that energy into the race in the most destructive, divisive way possible, in which he's only out for himself - which his statements prove every.single.day. Those statements that you would roll your eyes at and dismiss? Now, you no longer can, because those statements tell you who he is, and exactly what he plans to do if he gets re-elected (spoiler alert: it's going to be hugely destructive to our lives as we know them, and most, if not all, of our freedoms that we take for granted.). You guessed it - we're talking about Trump, and why we need to take him at his word. In other words, even though it's painful - don't look away. He's giving us the blueprint of how a Trump presidency would be, and not only is it worse than last time, it will destroy our democracy and our freedom along with it. What to listen for? Why we think the risk of having Trump in a second term is FAR more dangerous than having Biden. Looking specifically at the harms that will befall our country because of things like his views on: Immigration and making America a white-supremacist-centered nation, Ukraine and what that says about his desire to pander to the influence of outside nations, His hatred of the press and what that indicates about his desire to turn America into an authoritarian state, Violence, and how a deeper threat of control and violence will eventually impact every American citizen Abortion, and what this means for every woman, mother, and person capable of bearing a child, including families overall. Do not look away from the massive threat Trump poses for our country.

Three days ago, Donald Trump posted an image of the current president of the United States being kidnapped and likely assasinated. Stop. Take a good look at what Trump did. Get righteously angry, call it out, and share your righteous anger. That's how we defeat him.
