In diesem Gespräch mit Farina Deutschmann, der Autorin von Küss mich toxisch, tauchen wir tief ein in die Mechanismen toxischer Beziehungen – subtil, vielschichtig und oft erst im Rückblick erkennbar. Wir sprechen darüber, ✨ wie man erkennt, dass etwas „nicht stimmt“, ✨ welche Dynamiken hinter narzisstischen Verhaltensmustern stecken, ✨ warum viele Menschen in ungesunden Beziehungen bleiben, ✨ und wie man sich Schritt für Schritt daraus lösen kann. Gleichzeitig betrachten wir auch die Rolle der eigenen Muster, Trigger und Grenzen – und wie viel Klarheit entsteht, wenn man versteht, wer man selbst eigentlich ist. Ein intensives, ehrliches, warmes Gespräch, das dir Orientierung geben kann – egal ob du selbst betroffen bist, jemanden begleiten möchtest oder einfach mehr über dieses Thema verstehen willst.
Welche Ebenen hat die Matrix? Ich habe nachgefragt. Und was raus kam, war komplexer als erwartet, denn sie scheint auf verschiedenen Ebenen und Schichten zu wirken. ► Joyce' neues Buch jetzt kaufen: http://bit.ly/JoyceHerzBuch ► Chris' neues Buch jetzt kaufen: http://bit.ly/DasSpielDesLebens ► Unser erstes Buch, was 100.000 mal verkauft wurde: http://bit.ly/joyce-buch ► Folgt uns bei: Joyce' Instagram: http://www.instagram.com/joyceilg Chris' Instagram: http://www.instagram.com/chrishalb12 Joyce' TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@joyceilg
Rick Alan Ross explains how groups like Scientology and the International Church of Christ use confession, auditing, and discipling to gain control over members. He contrasts genuine faith with coercive tactics, details emotional manipulation, and describes how people become trapped in high-control religious environments.
Send us a textIn today's episode, we're pulling back the curtain on something we all feel but rarely talk about: Why does so much of what we see online — protests, trends, “viral” moments, political messages — feel engineered?And more importantly… Where's the line between honest persuasion and outright manipulation?Kyle breaks down the gray area between influence and orchestration, exploring questions like:What we cover in this episode:Why most public messaging (left, right, corporate, activist) is coordinatedHow “organic” viral moments often aren't organic at allThe blurry boundary between influence, strategy, and manipulationHow social media algorithms amplify emotion — not truthWhy transparency matters more than everThe ethics of engineering a message, even if the message itself is trueHow orchestrated narratives shape our culture without us realizing itKyle also shares:Research on political communicationStudies on influencer persuasionData on media trust and social media viralityReal examples of modern messaging tactics (without naming groups or pointing fingers)The big question we leave you with:“If a message is true… but engineered… does it change how you feel about it?”This episode is all about curiosity, not conclusions — and invites listeners to think deeply about the media ecosystem we live in, and how it shapes what we believe.Links: MIT Sloan research on misinformation spreading faster than truth Study: Shares without clicks on Facebook and social platforms UNESCO influencer fact checking study KFF misinformation poll snapshot Social Media:Insta/X: kyleTHEhortonYoutube: KyletalkssTiktok: KyleTalkssIntro: Head In The Clouds by Matthew MorelockOutro: Surfaces Type Beat - Jellyfish BeatsSupport the show
In this hard-hitting episode of Rob McConnell Interviews, Rob welcomes Dennis Pinigis, author of It's The Price of Oil, Stupid, for a blunt and revealing look at how global energy markets quietly shape world affairs far more than politicians care to admit. Pinigis exposes the hidden economic forces, geopolitical maneuverings, and industry-driven agendas that determine everything from foreign policy to consumer prices at the pump. With clarity and unapologetic candor, he argues that many of today's biggest political conflicts and economic crises trace back to one simple truth: the world still runs on oil, and those who control it control the narrative. This conversation delivers sharp insight, startling revelations, and a breakdown of the oil game that every listener needs to understand.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-x-zone-radio-tv-show--1078348/support.Please note that all XZBN radio and/or television shows are Copyright © REL-MAR McConnell Meda Company, Niagara, Ontario, Canada – www.rel-mar.com.

Welcome back to the Information Entropy Podcast where this week we return to finish off our investigation into CRISPR and genetic engineering! In this episode, we skip straight to the fun stuff where Mitch explores the potential for humans and AI to hack the biological instructions with malicious intentions... how far away are we from AI altering our DNA? Tom takes a look at Gene Drives, a system that allows humans to alter the inheritance chance of positive and negative genes and traits that could have devastating ecological consequences if unleashed on the world. In addition to that, the boys get ahead of themselves and rant about Christmas movies and the capitalistic nature of the holiday season. Music: HOME – AWAY
Lilly wollte einfach nur Yoga machen - und hatte dann irgendwann Sex mit einem Yoga-Guru, ohne es wirklich zu wollen.

Wir erklären die Mechanismen von Manipulation.Ein Podcast von Christiane Hawranek und Katja Paysen-Petersen.
Julia Bleser - Der Podcast für ein glücklicheres Bewusstsein
Wusstest du, dass deine Angst oft systematisch beeinflusst wird - ohne dass du es bewusst wahrnimmst? In dieser Episode spreche ich darüber, wie emotionale Manipulation heute funktioniert und was du tun kannst, um dich innerlich zu stärken und zu schützen. Angst taucht nicht einfach zufällig auf. Sie wird genährt, verstärkt – und manchmal sogar strategisch eingesetzt. In dieser Folge erfährst du: -wie Angst psychologisch wirkt -warum dein Unterbewusstsein äußere Reize nicht sofort unterscheiden kann -und wie du wieder in deine innere Souveränität, Stabilität und Klarheit findest Viele Menschen glauben, ihre Angst sei ein rein persönliches Problem. Doch in Wahrheit wird Angst längst kollektiv beeinflusst - durch Bilder, Schlagzeilen, Krisenmeldungen und einen permanenten Alarmzustand im Außen. Diese Episode dient der Aufklärung, Bewusstwerdung und Selbststärkung. Sie ersetzt keine medizinische oder therapeutische Behandlung, kann dich aber dabei unterstützen, innerlich klarer und sicherer zu werden.
The same tactics that con artists use to manipulate you can be used to build trust. Dr. Abbie Maroño explains the psychology of ethical social engineering. Full show notes and resources can be found here: jordanharbinger.com/1255What We Discuss with Dr. Abbie Maroño:Manipulation vs. Influence: It's all about intention. The same psychological tactics can be used for good or evil. The difference? Manipulation disregards harm to others and exploits fear, while influence builds mutual benefit and makes people want to collaborate with you. Con artists use manipulation because it's faster — but ethical influence wins every time over the long term.Scammers weaponize your emotions to bypass critical thinking. When emotions are activated, your prefrontal cortex — the brain's logic center — gets overridden. That's why con artists use artificial urgency ("only 24 hours left!") and exclusivity ("just for you"). They only need to appear trustworthy, not actually be it, because you'll act before you can verify.Shame is the silent weapon that keeps victims quiet. The reason so many scam victims never report what happened isn't denial, it's embarrassment. Shame becomes its own prison, preventing people from seeking help or warning others. This silence protects predators and perpetuates cycles of exploitation.Short-term thinking is the con artist's best friend. Manipulators prey on our psychological bias toward immediate rewards. Getting $100 now feels more valuable than $150 later — even when it isn't. This "survival mode" mentality keeps people chasing quick wins rather than building something sustainable.To protect yourself, remember that other people's emotions usually have nothing to do with you. When someone pushes your buttons or creates pressure, pause and recognize it for what it is: a tactic, not a personal attack. Shelving your emotional reaction keeps your critical thinking intact — and that's your best defense against manipulation and your greatest asset in any negotiation.And much more...And if you're still game to support us, please leave a review here — even one sentence helps!

In this episode of Killer Cross Examination, host Neil Rockind sits down with Colin Daniels, a criminal defense attorney at Rockind Law, for a candid and revealing conversation about what really happens during police encounters. Daniels breaks down the psychology of police contact, the high-pressure nature of interrogations, and the subtle—and not-so-subtle—manipulation tactics officers use to elicit statements. Throughout the discussion, he delivers a clear and unwavering message: never speak to the police without a lawyer present. Daniels emphasizes that even innocent people can be tripped up by interrogation strategies, and urges viewers to immediately ask for an attorney to protect their rights. The episode offers eye-opening insights into the justice system and practical guidance for anyone who may find themselves facing police questioning.About Neil Rockind - Neil Rockind is a trial lawyer.

"Les fondamentaux sont finalement à peu de choses près, relativement les mêmes, qu'il y a 20 ans, qu'il y a 30 ans, qu'il y a 40 ans, ils ont relativement faiblement évolué." Le D.E.V. de la semaine est Adnan Aita, cofondateur et CTO chez Sharelock. Avec lui, on démonte le mythe d'une complexification exponentielle du métier de développeur. Adnan défend l'idée que les fondamentaux n'ont presque pas bougé depuis 30 ans : on empile surtout des couches d'outils pour simplifier l'accès à la technique. Résultat : la vraie différenciation ne viendrait pas du nombre de frameworks maîtrisés, mais plutôt de la compréhension profonde des bases. L'épisode questionne aussi l'avenir du métier sous l'effet de l'IA, entre les cycles de sur-staffing et la relecture du code généré.Chapitrages00:00:52 : La programmation : une recette de cuisine00:02:06 : Simplifier le métier de développeur00:06:25 : L'histoire des termes en informatique00:09:37 : L'évolution des langages de programmation00:12:50 : Le recrutement dans le développement00:18:52 : La complexité croissante des métiers techniques00:23:47 : L'impact de l'IA sur le développement00:32:46 : Les besoins en développeurs dans le futur00:46:22 : Conclusion : le métier en transformation00:53:01 : Réflexion finale sur notre rôle Liens évoqués pendant l'émission The art of computer programmingUnix Power tools Influence et Manipulation 🎙️ Soutenez le podcast If This Then Dev ! 🎙️ Chaque contribution aide à maintenir et améliorer nos épisodes.

In this episode of Uncommon Sense, I'm discussing my changing views on Israel, Donald Trump, and Candace Owens and why principles grounded in Scripture must always matter more than personalities.I'll discuss how easy it is to get swept up in political figures, influencers, and movements… all while forgetting that God alone is who we should be following. The devil is just like a stalker prowling around, watching, scheming, seeking someone to devour. And in these chaotic times, he's using deception, manipulation, and emotional brainwashing to pull people into confusion and ultimately into Hell.In this episode, we're talking about how the synagogue of Satan is operating openly today, pushing narratives meant to distract and divide. I am urging my listeners to stay anchored in the Word, remain spiritually alert, and refuse to be seduced by personalities, platforms, or “conservative celebrities” who very well may not be aligned with God's truth.Ultimately, we all need to return to the Bible (now more than ever) and to guard our minds and souls as the days grow darker and darker.--https://www.bible.com/

The December 2025 Solstice isn't just another date on a calendar—it marks the next Universal Shift that will change how you experience life, purpose, and your soul connection forever. In Part 86 of The Story of Creation, Michelle Vickers shares advanced knowledge direct from universal beings revealing what humanity was never meant to forget: our connection to the universe was never lost—only hidden. For tens of thousands of years, the truth of human origins, consciousness and evolution were erased and replaced with manipulation, fear, and false beliefs. Time, calendars, systems, and even spirituality were constructed to disconnect you from the universe and from yourself. This episode exposes how that happened—and how the universe has already begun reversing it. Five years ago, the universe made a historic shift from being founded on love to being founded on truth. That transition is now accelerating. You are seeing illusions crumble, systems collapse, and relationships change—not because something is wrong, but because the universe is finally responding to the part of you that has always been searching for spiritual awakening, deeper alignment, and authenticity. Michelle explains how energetic upgrades work, why integration requires a full year, and what the upcoming solstice will activate: the vibration of illumination—the ability to participate in the universe as a universal being, not just a human being. You will learn how universal communication truly works through vibration and energy, not the mind, and why every human is designed with a hypersensitive ability to feel truth directly. If you are tired of illusions… if you are craving truth and depth… if you know there is something more waiting for you… this episode is your confirmation. 🌟 This is the moment your universal connection becomes your meaning for existing. Truth isn't coming—it's already here. 00:00 The Creator's Annual Review of Existence 02:55 No Judgment in Universal Truth 04:10 Humans Need Time to Integrate Upgrades 05:35 Manipulation Through Time & Civilization 07:25 Knowing vs Wisdom: Experience is Required 08:45 Earth Evolves… With or Without Us 10:58 Humanity's True Universal Relationship 11:50 Carrots of Manipulation & False Beliefs 13:10 Why Humans Chose Comfort Over Truth 14:57 Your Energetic Cord to the Universe 17:19 Radio Frequency of Your Soul 19:05 Society's Design to Numb Your Connection 22:15 Every Human is an Empath 25:40 The Universe Shifted from Love to Truth 29:55 The Great Divide: Truth vs Illusion 31:40 What The 2025 Solstice Will Activate 35:52 True Joy & Fulfillment Come From 39:19 Processing Universal Energy 44:29 No One Can Block You 51:05 Smart Watches & Rings Are Messing With Your Energy
The $100 Silver Window Is Almost Gone — And This Time It Won't Reopen Watch this video at- https://youtu.be/bXIi8jBSW6Y?si=XOflk-EgU8fzw665 Money Rewind 29 subscribers 788 views Dec 4, 2025 This documentary investigates a recurring four-stage pattern in commodity markets, analyzing its potential application to the contemporary silver market. The central thesis posits that assets historically used as money often undergo a cycle of Establishment, Manipulation, Squeeze, and eventual Break of the paper derivative market. This analysis is contextualized through an examination of current market phenomena, including significant physical silver withdrawals from COMEX vaults, the suspension of silver sales by major international banks, and the presence of market backwardation—a key indicator of acute physical demand. The narrative draws parallels to major historical precedents, including the 1980 silver crisis precipitated by the Hunt brothers, the 1971 "Nixon Shock" which severed the U.S. dollar's final link to gold, and the 2001 palladium supply shock. By dissecting silver's dual role as both a historic monetary asset and an indispensable industrial commodity facing a structural supply deficit, the film argues that the modern silver market is exhibiting classic signs of the "Squeeze" phase, signaling a potential decoupling between the price of physical metal and its paper equivalents.

She shares relatable anecdotes and practical examples, highlighting how this pattern can manifest in various relationship dynamics, from casual dating to long-term partnerships. Listeners will learn to recognize the signs of future faking, including vague timelines, unfulfilled promises, and the emotional rollercoaster of hope and disappointment.Brianne empowers listeners with actionable strategies to address future faking in their relationships.

Etinosa Agbonlahor is the CEO of Decision Alpha and former Director of Behavioral Research at Fidelity Investments. A behavioral economist by training, she helps companies understand how customers actually make decisions—and how that should shape pricing. In this episode, Etinosa and Mark Stiving unpack the tension between real value and perceived value, why customers don't react to prices rationally, and how behavioral economics can strengthen pricing strategies. They explore value drivers, ethical nudging, the fear of raising prices, and why most buyers don't remember prices as clearly as business owners think. If you want clearer, psychology-backed ways to price, communicate value, and make better pricing decisions, this episode gives you practical insights you can use right away. Why You Have to Check Out Today's Podcast: Why customers forget your prices—and how that myth makes business owners afraid to raise them. How behavioral economics expands value beyond profit into perception, context, and emotion. How to raise prices ethically using segmentation, glide paths, and clear communication. "Understand your customer. Do the pricing research with customers—not just with quant models. Go talk to customers. It's important." — Etinosa Agbonlahor Topics Covered: 02:08 – Pricing and Behavioral Economics. Mark and Etinosa debate where behavioral economics fits in pricing—Mark sees it as the final touch, while Etinosa argues it shapes value perception from the start. 05:20 – Defining Real vs. Perceived Value. A foundational question: is value measured strictly in outcomes, or also in emotion, context, and comparison? Their contrasting definitions reveal why pricing teams often misread customers. 09:05 – Value Beyond Monetary Price. Etinosa expands value to include convenience, safety, time saved, emotional comfort, and opportunity cost—benefits customers feel but rarely articulate. 10:37 – Value Drivers in Pricing Strategies. Behavioral research uncovers the real outcomes customers care about. Mark connects this to pricing strategy: quantify value drivers to justify stronger pricing. 15:32 – Manipulation in Behavioral Economics. Mark asks whether nudging is manipulation. Etinosa explains that behavioral tools aren't coercive—intent determines whether they help or harm the customer. 18:02 – Ethics of Choice Architecture. Every pricing page is a designed choice. Etinosa contrasts ethical nudges with dark patterns, while Mark questions how businesses balance their goals with customer wellbeing. 22:22 – Behavioral Economics in Business. Real-world examples show how behavioral insights improve retention, financial outcomes, and long-term customer relationships—not just revenue. 24:20 – Pricing Fears and Customer Perception. The Spotlight Effect is a myth: customers don't track your prices as closely as you think. The two discuss how clearer communication and segmentation reduce backlash when raising prices. 28:48 – Understand Your Customer. Etinosa's closing advice: real pricing power comes from customer conversations—not spreadsheets. Behavioral economics begins with understanding actual human behavior. Key Takeaways: "Value is all about perception. Once you step into perception, you're in behavioral economics." — Etinosa Agbonlahor "There is no such thing as a neutral choice. Every pricing page is designed—intentionally or unintentionally." — Etinosa Agbonlahor "People are not rational. Once you accept that as fact, you can design pricing that fits how people actually behave." — Etinosa Agbonlahor "Business owners think customers remember prices more than they actually do." — Etinosa Agbonlahor People / Resources Mentioned: Richard Thaler – Nobel laureate; originator of transaction utility and foundational behavioral economics concepts. Dan Ariely – Author of Predictably Irrational, referenced in discussing irrational decision patterns. Weber-Fechner Law – Psychological principle used to design perceptually smoother price increases.

Marine combat pilot and filmmaker M.D. Selig joins us for an extraordinary deep dive into alien manipulation, Deep-State deception, and the psychology of mind control. Drawing from his experience as a decorated Marine A-6E Intruder pilot, Squadron Intelligence Officer, and creator of films featured on Netflix, Showtime, and Amazon Prime, Selig pulls back the curtain on how “impossible” events hide in plain sight.In this episode, we explore how covert narratives are constructed, why certain UFO encounters remain obscured for decades, and whether alien influence and psychological operations overlap more than we realize.

Banned in most prisons! That feels like a point in the book's favor, but I'm not entirely sure I can articulate why. The Daily Laws: 366 Meditations on Power, Seduction, Mastery, Strategy, and Human Nature By: Robert Greene Published: 2021 464 Pages Briefly, what is this book about? A "page a day" book collecting bits of wisdom from Robert Greene's other books (Laws of Power, Art of Seduction, Strategies of War, etc.) What's the author's angle? As a general matter Greene is something of a Machiavellian figure, he's going to tell it like it is, and give you the tools you really need to succeed in life. Or at least that's his claim. I generally find his approach to be refreshing, but there are also moments when I would say he takes things too far and dispenses advice that's counterproductive. Who should read this book? If you're one of the small number of people who likes to have a page of the day book as a way of marking the time from January 1 to December 31, this is an average entry in this very niche genre. But as the genre is not particularly large, any example might be welcome. If you've never done a page a day book I would probably start with Tolstoy's A Calendar of Wisdom. I thought it was quite good. Also, there's an argument to be made for it being the first such book chronologically. (It's the earliest example of a devotional book that wasn't rigidly sectarian.) Finally, it was banned by the Soviets, which immediately gives it ten extra points in my book. Specific thoughts: Some good advice, some okay advice and a few pieces of actively bad advice

Chris Markowski discusses the manipulation of media narratives, the complexities of immigration, and the financial realities affecting America. He questions government narratives surrounding recent events, highlights fraud in Minnesota's welfare system, and critiques the U.S. intervention in Venezuela, suggesting that the motivations are more about oil than narco-terrorism. The conversation emphasizes the need for truth in financial reporting and the implications of government actions on citizens.

Stijn Schmitz welcomes Dr. Mark Thornton to the show. Dr. Mark Thornton is Economist and Senior Fellow at the Mises Institute. The discussion centers on the current state of precious metals, monetary policy, and economic systems, with a particular focus on gold and silver’s role in the global financial landscape. Thornton argues that gold is fundamentally money, and governments have only recently forced their way into replacing commodity money with fiat currency. He suggests that the current precious metals market is still in its early stages, with central bank buying and distrust in the US dollar driving significant interest. The gold and silver markets are experiencing growing pains, with increasing investor attention and potential for further price appreciation. The conversation delves into the fundamental differences between Austrian and Keynesian economics. Thornton criticizes Keynesian economics as a state-controlled ideology that promotes government spending and manipulates interest rates, whereas Austrian economics advocates for market-driven monetary systems and private property rights. He highlights how central bank policies create economic bubbles and exacerbate wealth inequality by favoring asset-rich individuals. Thornton sees potential for a significant monetary transformation, potentially triggered by the current precious metals bull market. He believes the collision between Western and Eastern financial markets, coupled with the rise of cryptocurrencies, could lead to a fundamental restructuring of monetary systems. The possibility of a return to a gold standard or a gold-backed settlement currency is discussed as a potential future scenario. The economist also warns about potential economic bubbles in artificial intelligence and private equity, arguing that the Federal Reserve’s monetary policies have created unsustainable conditions across various sectors. He believes that while central banks have been able to temporarily extend economic cycles, their power is not infinite, and a significant market correction is inevitable. Thornton concludes by emphasizing the importance of understanding Austrian economic principles and encourages listeners to explore the works of economists like Friedrich Hayek to gain deeper insights into monetary systems and economic dynamics.
