On this episode of Bruins Beat, Evan Marinofsky and Conor Ryan take a hard look at where the Bruins stand financially compared to the rest of the NHL. With the salary cap landscape shifting league-wide, how does Boston's situation actually stack up — and do they have the flexibility to make meaningful moves before the season starts? Evan and Conor break down the numbers, identify where the Bruins are handcuffed, and where there might be more room to maneuver than people realize. Then the conversation turns to Charlie McAvoy — is he still an elite defenseman, or has the conversation around him shifted? His contract, his performance, and his place among the NHL's best blue liners are all on the table. And to close it out, a bigger picture question: in a league that feels wide open, are the Bruins still relevant? Evan and Conor don't sugarcoat it. 0:00 – Intro 0:37 – Housekeeping & mid-August Bruins landscape 2:21 – Cap model breakdown: where the Bruins stand league-wide 7:03 – Biggest cap hits & value concerns on the roster 10:24 – Pavel Zacha extension & contract outlook 13:05 – Fraser Minten's value & what he's worth on the open market 15:31 – Are the Bruins at rock bottom — or turning a corner? 18:01 – PrizePicks & Rocket Money 20:25 – NHL Network's top defenseman rankings debate 21:29 – McAvoy vs. the field: where does he really rank? 28:58 – Are the Bruins still nationally relevant? 35:08 – Outro Bruins on CLNS Media is Powered by:

"I hate injustice with a passion. And when it was happening to me, I thought — why is this happening? Am I doing something wrong? You start to wonder about your confidence, you start to wonder about your capabilities." — Colleen McAvoy Colleen McAvoy had a long, stable government career — until three narcissistic managers came in succession and changed everything. She started shaking. Her heart palpitated. She stopped sleeping. HR didn't help. The lawyer said it would take years. The organisation's own counselling service told her plainly: get out, this place has a bad reputation. So she left. What followed is a story about what comes after — and what you can build when you stop tolerating what's tearing you apart. Colleen's book Bullies Begone offers tools, strategies, and a genuine blueprint for anyone navigating harassment or discrimination at work, whether they choose to stay and fight or leave and rebuild. Raymond and Colleen cover the uncomfortable ground together: whether victims can unconsciously draw bullies toward them, why organisations often fail the people they're supposed to protect, and why walking away — far from giving up — can be the most powerful act of self-respect available. The workplace bullying conversation nobody wants to have. Worth every minute. Learn more and connect with Colleen McAvoy: Search "Bullies Begone by Colleen McAvoy" on Amazon to find the book.

In this episode of Architecture, Design & Photography, Trent Bell sits down with curator, writer, and arts leader Suzette McAvoy. Suzette reflects on her career at the Farnsworth Art Museum and the Center for Maine Contemporary Art, along with Maine's long history as a place where artists come to live, work, and find space to think.  The conversation explores why art matters beyond beauty or market value, how it can build empathy and connection, and why some work takes time to understand. They also discuss contemporary art, creativity, spirituality, artistic risk, AI, and why artists may become even more important as technology continues to shape how we think and create.  It's a thoughtful conversation about learning to look, staying curious, and the role art plays in helping us better understand ourselves and others. About Suzette:  Suzette McAvoy is an independent curator, arts writer, and art advisor with more than thirty-five years experience in the field of fine art and museums. A leading authority on the art and artists of Maine, she has curated more than sixty exhibitions throughout her career, including nationally traveling exhibitions of the work of Louise Nevelson, Kenneth Noland, Lois Dodd, Karl Schrag, Alan Magee, and Alex Katz.  Website: https://www.suzettemcavoy.me  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/suzettemcavoy More from us:  Website: www.adppodcast.com  Instagram: http://instagram.com/adppod_  Apple Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/architecture-design-photography/id1447381737  Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/5qTtT0lpXkVGyksEkN57VS

Why is it so hard to leave a toxic relationship even when you know it's unhealthy? And why does the confusion often continue long after it's over? In this episode of Out of Crazytown, I'm joined by psychologist, author, and narcissistic abuse expert Dr. Kerry McAvoy to explore one of the most powerful concepts in abuse recovery: cognitive dissonance. We discuss why intelligent, capable people become trapped in unhealthy relationships, how gaslighting and manipulation create profound self-doubt, and why survivors often feel torn between what they know to be true and what they desperately hope is true. Together, we unpack the psychology behind narcissistic abuse, the mental fog that keeps so many people stuck, and the first steps toward rebuilding clarity, self-trust, and lasting freedom. If you've ever wondered, "Why couldn't I just leave?" or "Why do I still question myself?" this conversation will help you understand that your experience wasn't a sign of weakness, it was the result of a very real psychological process. In this episode, we discuss: • What cognitive dissonance is and why it keeps people stuck • The difference between cognitive dissonance, trauma bonding, and codependency • How gaslighting causes survivors to question their own reality • Why hope can become part of the psychological trap • What it looks like to "wake up" to the truth • How to begin rebuilding self-trust and moving forward Whether you're still in a toxic relationship, navigating the aftermath, or supporting someone who is, this episode offers insight, validation, and practical guidance for reclaiming your life.   Dr. McAvoy's Website Break Free From Narcissistic Abuse-Podcast Love You More-Book Surviving To Thriving: A Six-Step Blueprint to Narcissistic Abuse Healing and Recovery WINNING: Rewiring Your Brain and Reclaiming Your Life After Toxic Love

Dr. Kerry Kerr McAvoy is a retired psychologist and renowned expert on narcissistic abuse. In this intensely candid conversation, Kerry shares not only her professional expertise but also her hard-earned personal experiences on breaking free from the grip of a toxic, narcissistic relationship.How is it that intelligent, self-aware women end up partnered with deceitful, sometimes dangerous, narcissistic men? And why does it often take so much time and emotional energy to break these bonds, even after the truth about these men is revealed? Well, it's complicated.Kerry explains the psychology and subtle social pressures that leave even the strongest, self-aware women vulnerable to the dynamics of betrayal, manipulation, and gaslighting. She unpacks the evolutionary and cultural roots of our need for connection and for being "chosen," which challenge women to reckon with self-betrayal as the deepest cut of all. This episode confronts the real-life erosion of self and the powerful journey to reclaim identity, agency, and healing. It will engage, challenge, inform, and empower.

Joe Haggerty breaks down a busy week in Bruins land — starting with Stanley Cup Finals reactions, where Carolina is taking control behind Brandon Bussey's remarkable underdog story. Then it's Bruins news: the hiring of assistant coach Matt McIlvaine, Pastrnak's All-Star nod, McAvoy's Norris votes, and confirmation of the 2028 Toronto first round pick. Joe also gets into what Boston actually needs this offseason — a top-six center and a right-shot defenseman — and why cap space and assets aren't the problem. The real challenge? Getting players to want to come to Boston in an era where stars increasingly dictate where they play. Plus a deep Q&A mailbag: the NHL buzzer beater debate, whether Minton and Hagens can take a step next year, the real trade value of Jeremy Swayman, and the big question — should the Bruins ever consider trading Pastrnak? 0:00 - Intro 1:23 - Stanley Cup Finals Reaction: Carolina Taking Control 1:45 - Brandon Bussey's Cinderella Story 3:06 - Carter Hart Looking Worn Down for Vegas 4:18 - What Bussey's Run Says About How the Bruins Develop Goalies 9:02 - Bruins Hire Matt McIlvaine as Assistant Coach 10:29 - David Pastrnak Named to Second All-Star Team 11:20 - Charlie McAvoy Norris Trophy Votes 12:13 - Bruins Confirmed to Get Toronto's 2028 First Round Pick 13:14 - What Boston Needs: Top Six Center & Right Shot D 14:34 - Cam Neely Says the Bruins Will Be Aggressive This Offseason 15:27 - Why Players Not Wanting to Come to Boston Is the Real Problem 16:15 - The Dylan Larkin Effect: Players Building Super Teams 18:32 - PrizePicks 20:38 - Should the NHL Adopt the NBA Buzzer Beater Rule? 24:44 - Will Minton & Hagens Make a Leap Next Year? 27:33 - Where Are the Young Guys Training This Summer? 29:37 - What Would It Take to Trade Swayman? 31:43 - Why Goalies Just Don't Hold Great Trade Value 33:35 - Would You Trade Pastrnak?

We've an actual, bona fide Hollywood movie star on the podcast this week: Professor X himself, James McAvoy. At this year's Glasgow Film Festival, the PR gods granted us ten meagre minutes with McAvoy to discuss his directorial debut, the boisterous stranger-than-fiction tale California Schemin', about two lads from Dundee who convinced the London music industry they were a rapping duo from LA. McAvoy is joined by one of his film's stars, Lucy Halliday, and they discuss the Scottish accent, McAvoy's filmmaking influences and how he goes about directing his fellow actors.  On the review front, meanwhile, we discuss two very different new features. One is Orwell: 2+2=5, Raoul Peck's serious-minded essay film on George Orwell and how his writing predicted the double-speak of the modern world. The other is Fuze, David Mackenzie's fat-free thriller set in contemporary London starring Aaron Taylor-Johnson and Theo James trying out a rather silly accent.

This is the second episode in our Faith in Parents series on talking through the hardest topics – the conversations we're often told to avoid. In this episode, Ed and Amy are joined by Dawn McAvoy (Both Lives) to talk about the value of life, pregnancy and abortion. Their conversation covers questions such as: •How can we talk about the value of life with our youngest children?•How do we talk to our children about abortion appropriately and carefully?•How do we do it in a way that reflects the goodness, compassion, and hope of the Christian story?  This episode helps parents see that talking about abortion doesn't begin with arguments or politics, but with wonder relationship and community. It will encourage parents that we have a story that is better and more hopeful than the stories our children will hear elsewhere.Dawn McAvoy leads Both Lives, a UK wide initiative of the Evangelical Alliance. Both Lives advocates for both lives; every woman and every unborn in pregnancy. Both Lives champions laws that protect, services that enable and a culture that affirms women and children pre and post birth. bothlives.co.ukSupport the show

Does Narcissism Come and Go? What "Good Periods" With a Narcissist Really Mean This week's Fan Mail question comes from a listener in Dubai who writes: "Can narcissism in a person wax and wane? There's been years when my husband was acting like a narcissist, and then there's also been chunks of years where he's been incredibly supportive and uplifting. Can a narcissist change depending on their current situation?" In this episode, Dr. Kerry explains why narcissistic behavior can absolutely shift between good and bad periods and what those changes really means.Submit Your Question If you'd like your question addressed on air, send it here:

Slowly losing control in your relationship—but can't quite put your finger on what's happening?This week, Dr. Christine Cocchiola breaks down coercive control as the invisible foundation beneath all abuse. She explains why the savviest abusers never leave visible marks, how your world shrinks so gradually you don't notice until you're trapped, and why even trained professionals (like both Dr. C and Dr. Kerry) can miss coercive control in their own relationships. Learn how abusers weaponize connection itself, why "just leave" completely misunderstands the trap, and what it really means when someone can regulate their emotions perfectly—except with you. Follow on AppleFollow on SpotifyPODCAST EXTRA EXCLUSIVE SEGMENT Find the exclusive second segment and weekly newsletter here: https://substack.com/@breakingfreenarcabuseMORE ABOUT THE PODCAST EXTRA INTERVIEW

"My coworker is a narcissist—and so is our boss. What happens when two narcissists have to work together?" This week's Fan Mail question comes from a YouTube listener who writes: "Thank you for all your content! Very helpful. I am curious to know - what tends to happen when 'a narcissist meets a narcissist' - meaning they are introduced to each other, are coworkers or need to cooperate with each other in some way or even end up being partners? Are there any patterns to or are there typical characteristics/outcomes to this dynamic? Might they not be aware that they are both narcissists?" In this episode, Dr. Kerry breaks down what really happens when two highly narcissistic people enter each other's orbit—whether they fast-bond over shared grandiosity, descend into brutal competition for dominance, or manage an ice-cold alliance for mutual benefit. She explains the collusion-to-competition pipeline, why narcissistic couples can look magnetic but feel exhausting, and why most narcissists will never see themselves the way they see each other.

In late summer of 1990, a mother in central Maine seemed to slip quietly out of her own life. Shirley McAvoy had been navigating a painful separation, leaning on friends and trying to rebuild a sense of normalcy. Then, shortly before a scheduled court date related to her pending divorce, she simply disappeared.Days turned into weeks, and small, unsettling details began to surface—things that didn't fit with the idea of someone who'd chosen to leave. What started as a missing persons case slowly transformed into something far more disturbing, stretching well beyond the quiet town where Shirley was last seen.
