Tara Dublin guest hosts for John on his holiday break. She talks about the piecemeal, haphazard, slow-trickle, fuckery release of the Epstein files. She also discusses reports that the US carried out airstrikes against targets in Venezuela over the Christmas holiday. Trump has made several contradictory statements to the press on the strikes, but it seems the target was a shipyard. Then, she interviews Alicia J. Rose who is a photographer, filmmaker and musician based in Portland. They talk about her show Menopunks which is a bold, unapologetic documentary that exposes the truth behind the science and the silence. The show is backed by a fierce lineup of iconic Portland musicians. Then, Tara welcomes the one and only Hal Sparks to talk music, Trump mayhem and other politics.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

What does it take host a fashion show luncheon or gala that is engaging, cost-effective, and most importantly fun? There is no better person to talk about this topic than today's guest and someone I am proud to call my friend, iconic runway model and fashion show producer Jan Strimple. After beginning her career in retail merchandising, Jan started her trajectory in the fashion industry, walking the runways of Paris and collaborating with top designers, including the iconic Bob Mackie. Jan then moved behind the runway and launched Jan Strimple Productions in Dallas, where she produced many top nonprofit fashion shows in North Texas, including the iconic House of DIFFA, which is Texas's answer to The Met Gala. Jan seamlessly shares fun stories, knowledge, and wisdom on a range of topics, including what organizations need to do to determine if a fashion show concept is the right thing for them, the importance of understanding your audience when selecting a designer or a collection to showcase, the differences between a daytime luncheon and nighttime gala fashion show, her favorite event moments over the years, and so much more.

lights and energy, echoing the enthusiasm and hope that the new year promised.Es: En medio de la multitud que se reunía en la Plaza de Armas, Mateo caminaba con nerviosismo.En: Among the crowd

In this episode, I talk with Gary Lachman, author, cultural historian, and founding member of Blondie. Gary is widely regarded as one of the most prolific contemporary writers on Western esotericism, consciousness, and the hidden currents shaping culture.Our conversation centers on his most recent book, 'Touched by the Presence: From Blondie's Bowery and Rock and Roll to Magic and the Occult', his second autobiography and a deeply personal account of his spiritual development. The book traces his journey from the New York punk scene into a lifelong engagement with mysticism, synchronicity, and the inner life, exploring how moments of contact with something beyond the ordinary can quietly redirect an entire existence.We talk about Gary's early influences and how classic comic books, science fiction, and music helped form an imaginative framework that later opened naturally into esoteric study. We then talk about his journey of unfoldment, as his life story seems to intertwine with the growing counter culture of 70's and beyond. We continue into how those experiences, including meeting Debbie Harry, shaped his world view and led him into to becoming one of the most prolific writers in esoterica.. He reflects on the shamanic and transformative power of music, including the unique cultural and spiritual field surrounding the Grateful Dead, and how sound itself can function as a vehicle for altered states and collective meaning.Gary also shares insights from his brief time connected with the O.T.O., the realities many seekers encounter when entering formal occult structures, and his broader reflections on how human beings intuit, dream, and sometimes prefigure the future before it fully arrives.This episode is a thoughtful exploration of art, music, memory, mysticism, and so much more.. Drop In!www.gary-lachman.comGary Lachman Bio:Gary Lachman is an author and lecturer on consciousness, counterculture, and the Western esoteric tradition. His works include Dark Star Rising, Beyond the Robot, and The Secret Teachers of the Western World. A founding member of the rock band Blondie, he was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2006. He lives in London. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

After weeks of buildup and anticipation, Christmas and Yule have now passed. Whether your holiday was joyous or challenging, you'll likely be experiencing a let-down after the outpouring of holiday energy. There's a great temptation to dive headfirst into the new year without taking time to pause… but pause we must. Nature shows us that January is not the time to push and bloom, it's the time to rest and plan. Before taking action, follow nature's lead and lay dormant for a little while. Allow yourself to envision without the need to produce. The time will come to bloom, but for now simply be. What am I reading?Witches of Honeysuckle House by Liz Parkerhttps://bookshop.org/a/111301/9798892421997The Anatomy of Anxiety: Understanding and Overcoming the Body's Fear Response by Ellen Vora, MDhttps://bookshop.org/a/111301/9780063075108https://bookshop.org/shop/witchywomanwalkingWhat's playing on repeat?Worst Enemy by Marino What's for dinner?Black Lentil SoupIngredients: 1 tablespoon olive oil1 large onion, finely chopped2 carrots, diced2 celery stalks, diced3 cloves garlic, minced1/2 teaspoon turmeric1 tablespoon tomato paste1 can (14 oz) diced tomatoes2-3 tablespoons miso paste 1 cup black lentils, rinsed and drained4 cups vegetable broth or bone broth1 cup baby spinach1 tablespoon lemon juiceSalt and pepper to tasteInstructions:In a large pot, add the olive oil and heat over medium heat for 30 seconds.Add the onion, carrot, and celery and cook for 6-7 minutes or until the vegetables have softened slightly.Add the garlic, tomato paste, miso paste, and turmeric.

Have you ever wished you could travel back in time, wield 10th-level spells, and tell ancient archmages that "no seriously, this is definitely going to end badly"? Well congratulations, this episode is for you! Today we explore Netheril's majestic flying cities, magical decadence, and the absolute worst urban-planning decision ever: putting time portals in extremely obvious places. Grab your arcane seatbelts; gravity is optional. RPGBOT Video Reviews on YouTube Heads-up, adventurers! RPGBOT review episodes may soon begin appearing in full video on YouTube. If you've ever wanted to see our horrified facial expressions while discussing Netheril's magical OSHA violations—this might be your moment. More information coming soon! Show Notes In this episode of the RPGBOT.Podcast, the hosts dive deep into Netheril's Fall, the newest official supplement set during the height (and imminent collapse) of the ancient Netherese Empire. The cast explores Netheril's lore, the rise of magical elitism, the role of 10th-level spells, and the unique position this supplement occupies as mainly a Dungeon Master resource rather than a player-option book. The crew also discusses the magical decadence of flying cities, the oppressive social structure of the High Netherese vs Low Netherese, and introduces magical anomalies that shape how DMs can run Netheril-era adventures. Meanwhile, Tyler, Randall, and Ash debate the biggest question: Should Netheril EVER be saved? Or is this empire truly doomed? Finally, the hosts explore the controversial time-gate mechanics that enable PCs to visit this legendary era. Is this an exciting campaign hook, or a plot hole the size of a mythallar? (Spoiler: opinions are strong.) Key Takeaways Netheril's Fall provides primarily DM-focused content, not player options The supplement covers flying cities, magical aristocracy, and Netherese history Time-travel mechanics are interesting—but potentially world-breaking for campaigns Magical anomalies and arcane hazards add unique adventure hooks Adventures include encounters in both floating cities and ground-level Nethereese settlements Strong lore content connects directly to Forgotten Realms history, Baldur's Gate 3, and classic D&D themes The supplement works best if treated as a mini-campaign or one-shot instead of long-term setting Join the RPGBOT Patreon Want even more deep-dive analysis, lore breakdowns, and behind-the-scenes discussions like this one?

It's a tale we all know so well. Working hard and diligently building the life you think you're supposed to want—the career, a marriage, a carefully crafted plan. And then everything came crashing down. My guest this week, Becca Eve Young, knows all to well how this story goes. Because she lived it. Her marriage unraveled. She was laid off while alone in a foreign country as a global pandemic hit. Then, just when she thought it couldn't get worse, she gets the call that her father died. Stranded in rural Mexico, cracked open by grief, she experienced a supernatural encounter under the full moon that set her on a wild, often hilarious, sometimes heartbreaking journey. From car crashes and chaotic hookups, to silent meditation retreats, psychedelic revelations, robberies, and mystical moments—this is what happens when life blows up and a woman dares to say yes to becoming someone new.On this guest episode, Becca and I have a lively conversation exploring the concepts and details of her story. I had the privilege to read her book and adored its vibrant tone and how her Soul came through the words on the page. Becca shares about her journey in a raw, hilarious, and deeply human way. She tells us about her experience of how what began as a freefall became a wild quest to untangle grief, rewrite old stories, and rediscover her own worth. Together we share stories and anecdotes of life on the spiritual path and offer insights and guidance for anyone who's ever felt lost in their own life and is searching for more. BIO:Becca Eve Young is a former corporate strategist turned soulful storyteller and devoted to the art of becoming. After a plot twist (or five), she walked away from the societal shoulds to reclaim her voice. Her work lives at the raw intersections of growth, healing, and reinvention—delivered with humor, heart, and a spiritual spark. Her debut book, "It's Gonna Get Messy" is an unfiltered true story of heartbreak, healing and reinvention with a profound supernatural twist. The heart of her story is rooted in ditching the societal script and becoming your most soulful, authentic self. When she's not guiding others through identity shifts in starting their entrepreneurial career or coaching them in finding meaning in the messiness of life, you'll find her barefoot on a surfboard, writing in cozy cafes, and chasing the kind of freedom you can feel in your bones.Connect With Becca:www.beccaeveyoung.com@beccaeveyoung on Instagramhttps://www.instagram.com/beccaeveyoung/

In this episode, Tina and Curtis introduce their new mentorship, Practitioner Business Lab, a 12-week program designed to help health practitioners close the gap between being great clinically and actually building a successful business. Curtis dives into what he sees every day in practice, including common mistakes with peptides and why skipping the foundations often leads to poor client outcomes. Tina shares the business side of the equation: how to create content that connects, show up more effectively on social media, and build systems that support growth instead of burnout. Together, they talk about the importance of real-world experience and case studies (not just following generic protocols or signing up for another certification) to get better results for clients and more confidence as a practitioner. Early enrollment opens December 29th with a limited-time savings for those who join early. Here's what you'll learn: - Why peptides fall flat when clients should see incredible results - Why your clients aren't responding and what that actually means - The overlooked habits and lifestyle factors that make or break peptide success - What most practitioners never assess before ordering peptides (but should) - The missing piece between peptide science and real-world client outcomes - Why mentorship (not another certification) is the missing ingredient - The blind spot that keeps clinically brilliant practitioners struggling to sign clients - Why you feel overwhelmed by tech and how that blocks growth more than you realize - The reason your content isn't converting (and how to change it) - Why staying “the smartest person in the room” keeps you broke and stuck - How real-world case studies transform both clinical skills AND credibility - Details about Practitioner Business Lab and if it's right for you Early enrollment for Practitioner Business Lab is open now through Tuesday, 1/6 (save $500): https://www.carrotsncake.com/offers/PYvFYWgt/checkout?coupon_code=PBLWAITLIST Connect with Tina Haupert: https://carrotsncake.com/ Facebook: Carrots 'N' Cake https://www.facebook.com/carrotsncake Instagram: @carrotsncake https://www.instagram.com/carrotsncake YouTube: Tina Haupert https://www.youtube.com/user/carrotsncake About Tina Haupert: Tina Haupert is the owner of Carrots ‘N' Cake as well as a Certified Nutrition Coach and Functional Diagnostic Nutrition Practitioner (FDN-P).

I was diagnosed with an extremely severe case of sleep apnea, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, and a pre-diabetic status. At this time, I was also struggling with substance abuse, which would obviously contribute to my health complications, but most were from birth. After receiving the news from running tests, the doctors had informed me that I was lucky to be alive.

In Food, Heresies, and Magical Boundaries in the Middle Ages (Amsterdam UP, 2024) by Dr. Andrea Maraschi & Dr. Francesca Tasca, readers will find stories about medieval heresies and “magic” from an unusual perspective: that of food studies. The time span ranges from Late Antiquity to the Late Middle Ages, while the geographical scope includes regions as different as North Africa, Spain, Ireland, continental Europe, the Holy land, and Central Asia. Food, heresies, and magical boundaries in the Middle Ages explores the power of food in creating and breaking down boundaries between different groups, or in establishing a contact with other worlds, be they the occult sides of nature, or the supernatural. The book emphasizes the role of food in crafting and carrying identity, and in transferring virtues and powers of natural elements into the eater's body. Which foods and drinks made someone a heretic? Could they be purified? Which food offerings forged a connection with the otherworld? Which recipes allowed gaining access to the hidden powers within nature? This interview was conducted by Dr. Miranda Melcher whose book focuses on post-conflict military integration, understanding treaty negotiation and implementation in civil war contexts, with qualitative analysis of the Angolan and Mozambican civil wars.

Guest: Dave Bidini, Renaissance Man With the holidays upon us, we brought the biggest baseball romantic we know into Deep Left Field to talk about the magic that was the Blue Jays' 2025 season. Dave Bidini - author of multiple books including "Baseballissimo," publisher of the West End Phoenix, Toronto Star contributor and Rheostatics guitarist - joins us to wax poetic on the year that was, the post-season run and how he's handling the Blue Jays' loss in Game 7 of the World Series.
