It is December 28th—that strange gap between Christmas and New Year. Let me ask you a question: How many times have you looked at your phone already today?.It is easy to open an app and see the "highlight reel" of everyone else's life—the matching pajamas, the immaculate tables, and those perfect smiles. This constant scrolling creates a trap of comparison, making you feel like your holiday wasn't enough or that you didn't do enough.This is "digital noise"—a low-level static buzzing in the back of your brain and stealing your joy.In today's session, Martin (Clinical Hypnotherapist) guides you through a powerful Digital Detox Visualization. We won't throw your phone in a river, but we will take your mind to a place where the signal cannot reach you.In this episode, you will:Unplug the Mental Router: Visualize placing your phone face down on a hallway table and pulling the plug on your Wi-Fi router to stop the frantic blinking lights.Escape to the Wild: Step out of your back door and into an ancient, deep forest where the trees reach up like pillars of a cathedral.Experience Biophilic Sound: Learn how natural sounds—like the rustle of wind and the snap of a twig—soothe the brain instantly.Watch the Signal Drop: Visualize the signal bars on your internal phone dropping from three, to two, to one, until you have "no service" and are completely free.Find What is Real: Realize that pixels on a screen are not real, but the breath in your lungs and the ground beneath your feet are.Your life, with all its messiness and imperfections, is real and valid. You do not need to perform for an audience; you just need to be.A Note from Martin: "Discard those negative anchors that have ever held you back, embrace your true potential.".Connect & Support: If this escape helped you find peace, please subscribe to Calming Anxiety.Next Step: When you open your eyes, try not to reach for the screen immediately—look at something real, like the sky or your hands.Smile often, and be kind.

1. Welfare System Fraud and Structural Issues Based on an op-ed by Phil Gramm and John Early in The Wall Street Journal titled “The Biggest Fraud in Welfare”. Key points: U.S. welfare spending has skyrocketed 765% since the mid-1970s, now totaling $1.4 trillion annually. If distributed evenly among the 19.8 million families classified as poor, each would receive $71,000 per year. The government fails to count non-cash benefits (Medicaid, housing subsidies, food stamps) as income, creating a distorted picture of poverty. Example: A single parent earning $11,000 annually can receive benefits worth $53,128, bringing total resources to $64,128, well above the poverty threshold. Criticism of the system: It traps people in dependency instead of promoting self-sufficiency, contrasting with Trump-era welfare reform that moved 7 million people off food stamps into the workforce. 2. Massive Fraud in Minnesota’s Medicaid and Welfare Programs Federal prosecutors allege up to $9 billion in fraud since 2018, possibly 50% of the $18 billion spent on 14 programs. Fraud described as “industrial scale”, involving fake companies and individuals exploiting housing and autism assistance programs. Some funds allegedly funneled to Al Shabab, a Somali terrorist organization. Criticism of Minnesota’s Democratic leadership for lack of oversight and alleged vote-buying incentives. Prediction: Similar fraud likely exists in California, New York, and Illinois. Media accused of downplaying the scandal; local CBS reports highlighted the severity. 3. Strong U.S. Economic Performance Under Trump Latest GDP report shows 4.3% growth in Q3, the strongest in two years, beating expectations of 3.2%. Growth driven by consumer spending, healthcare, tech, and AI-related investments. Inflation reportedly down to 1.6%, signaling economic stability. Commentary contrasts media narratives predicting economic collapse with reality of strong holiday spending and trade policy success. Trump’s supply-side policies (tax cuts, deregulation) and trade strategies credited for economic boom. Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.

In this powerful episode, David Lichtenstein opens up about wealth, success, failure, and what truly gives life meaning. From business setbacks and rebuilding, to philanthropy, community responsibility, and personal resilience, this conversation challenges how we define success and where our real value comes from. It's an honest look at money, pressure, ego, and purpose, through a deeply Jewish lens grounded in lived experience.   The discussion goes far beyond finances, touching on tzedakah, leadership, cancel culture, failure, healing from trauma, Israel, and the responsibility to speak about uncomfortable but necessary topics. This is a raw, thoughtful conversation about courage, clarity, and living with conviction, even when it's unpopular.     This episode was made possible thanks to our sponsors:     ► Colel Chabad Pushka App    The easiest way to give Tzedaka   https://pushkapp.cc/meaningful _______________________________________   ► Torah Umesorah     Torah Umesorah equips teachers and schools to help every child thrive, support this work and help strengthen Jewish education by donating today.   https://content.jcn.io/MeaningfulMinuteTU _______________________________________   ► 7th Heaven Chocolate   high-quality, dairy-free chocolate that's ethically sourced and seriously good.   use code MPPfree for free shipping https://www.7thheavenchocolate.com/?srsltid=AfmBOoryFUtu_BwTX2aYLCwtf8ykSbfR4dcurwUZAS8p_C2ftD7WyjNN _______________________________________   ► 7th Heaven Chocolate   high-quality, dairy-free chocolate that's ethically sourced and seriously good.   use code MPPfree for free shipping https://www.7thheavenchocolate.com/?srsltid=AfmBOoryFUtu_BwTX2aYLCwtf8ykSbfR4dcurwUZAS8p_C2ftD7WyjNN _______________________________________   ►Rothenberg Law Firm   Personal Injury Law Firm For 50+ years!

The NBA loves a fairytale ending — legends riding off into the sunset with one last ring. But the reality is harsher: aging championship stars can become a “poison pill” for franchises, locking teams into oversized salaries, outdated roster-building, and stalled player development.In this episode of On The Ball, Ric Bucher breaks down why it's so difficult to break up a title-winning core — and why the Los Angeles Lakers and Golden State Warriors are the latest examples of teams paying the price for loyalty while still selling championship expectations.Ric also explains why the best organizations make the cold-blooded pivot before the clock strikes midnight, the role fans and media play in keeping “one more run” alive, and how teams end up stuck when the window closes but the payroll doesn't.00:00:35 – Where to find Ric (FS1/Fox Sports Radio) + new book on being coachable 00:01:18 – Holiday delay + why Christmas Day set up this episode 00:01:49 – The “poison pill” problem: aging champions and marquee teams 00:02:14 – Why breaking up a championship core is so hard 00:03:11 – History lesson: teams that waited too long to turn the page 00:03:38 – Loyalty is fine… if you're honest about expectations 00:05:02 – The hidden cost: money, roles, roster, coaching, and marketing built around stars 00:06:02 – Why “contend + develop” usually doesn't work (Warriors example) 00:06:48 – What real transition looks like (Wade → LeBron, Duncan → Kawhi) 00:07:52 – Fans, connection, and the business of keeping “the guy” 00:09:45 – Media vs fan reality: why we get it twisted about “upgrades” 00:11:31 – Booker/Suns as the blueprint for “glimmer of hope” economics 00:15:26 – The “glimmer” sidebar + players who sell hope without June basketball 00:16:53 – Why it's different when the star actually won a ring 00:17:41 – The ruthless move: trade the star before midnight 00:18:42 – Recent examples of teams doubling down on aging stars 00:19:12 – Bill Walsh trading Joe Montana: the blueprint 00:20:19 – Which current GMs will actually make the hard pivot? 00:21:52 – Teams that missed the window: Lakers/Warriors/Clippers (and why it matters now) 00:22:39 – Lakers roster-building problem around Luka + payroll realities 00:23:20 – Warriors payroll trap: Steph/Jimmy/Draymond math 00:25:17 – Why re-signing Draymond locked in the old identity 00:25:50 – Klay nostalgia vs reality + the real mistake 00:26:22 – Wrap-up + teaser on tanking/competition solutions next episodeFollow Ric Bucher: X / Instagram / Threads / Bluesky: @RicBucher #NBA #Lakers #Warriors #LeBronJames #StephenCurry #JimmyButler #DraymondGreen #NBATalk #NBAAnalysis #OnTheBall #RicBucher #UnitedWeCastSupport this show http://supporter.acast.com/bucher-and-friends.

Colosenses 3:23A las 2 de la mañana del 8 de septiembre de 1860, el buque de vapor Lady Elgin colisionó con la goleta Augusta en aguas del lago Michigan. El Lady Elgin transportaba más de trescientos pasajeros y tripulación en un viaje turístico. Lamentablemente, el capitán, sin percatarse del daño que había sufrido el barco, decidió continuar el viaje en la oscuridad. Media hora después, las pesadas calderas y la máquina de vapor ocasionaron la ruptura del casco y el barco se desintegró rápidamente.Muchas víctimas se aferraron a los restos flotantes durante largas horas en el agua fría. Algunos lograron alcanzar la orilla, pero fueron arrastrados nuevamente por la fuerte resaca. Aquella noche, diecisiete personas fueron salvadas por un joven llamado Edward W. Spencer. Como nadador experimentado, llevaba una cuerda atada al cuerpo y una y otra vez nadaba entre las olas para rescatar a los pasajeros exhaustos. Sus compañeros, al otro lado de la cuerda, lo ayudaban a arrastrar tanto a él como a las víctimas hasta la orilla. Seis horas más tarde, cuando alcanzó el límite de sus fuerzas, con el cuerpo cubierto de rasguños y magulladuras, Spencer se desmayó. Despertó en su habitación en la Universidad de Evanston, donde su hermano, William, aguardaba ansiosamente su recuperación. Las primeras palabras de Edward fueron: «Will, ¿he cumplido con mi deber? ¿He dado lo mejor de mí?».En 1924, Ensign Edwin Young, después de haber escuchado la historia de Spencer, compuso una canción que realiza una aplicación espiritual del incidente. «Me pregunto -dice la canción-¿he hecho lo mejor por Jesús? [...] Sé que mi Señor espera lo mejor de mí [...] Me pregunto, ¿he hecho lo mejor por Jesús, cuando él ha hecho tanto por mí?».Al llegar al final del año y mirar en retrospectiva, considero que cada uno de nosotros debe hacerse y contestar las mismas dos preguntas. La primera alude a nuestra responsabilidad de ser la sal de la tierra y la luz del mundo, a ser testigos de Cristo y colaborar en la tarea de salvar a otros a la vez que hacemos de este mundo un lugar mejor. La segunda pregunta solo la pueden contestar tú y Dios, pues solo tú y él conocen tu máximo potencial. Durante este año, «¿has cumplido con tu deber? ¿Has dado lo mejor de ti?».

Our conversation with Kirk McElhern about Take Control of Apple Media Apps looks at the steady maturation of Apple's media apps—Music, TV, Books, and Podcasts—and why major changes are now rare. Kirk unpacks Apple Music's personalized stations and discovery, the "hits rise to the top" problem, and why many podcast pros still prefer Overcast despite Apple's transcripts. Plus: how Apple's services strategy nudges users toward subscriptions, and why managing your own library adds complexity. (Part 2)  MacVoices is supported by the 2025 MacVoices Holiday Gift Guides.

The Canadian Museum for Human Rights in Winnipeg was built to educate Canadians about stories of global injustice. Yet in the more than 10 years since it opened, it has not meaningfully acknowledged the dispossession of Palestinians in 1948 that resulted from the founding of Israel. But now the CMHR has announced an exhibit titled Palestine Uprooted: Nakba Past and Present to launch next year. Jonah Corne is an associate professor in the department of English, Theatre, Film and Media at the University of Manitoba. He joins us to talk about the significance of this move.

In this week's episode, I'm joined by Amy Griffin for a deeply personal conversation about what it means to re-parent yourself—and how that inner work quietly transforms your parenting. We talk about the pressure to be perfect, the role of control and trust in family relationships, and how healing your own story can create more safety for your kids. Amy shares how telling the truth, setting boundaries, and staying in the light reshaped the way she shows up as a mother, partner, and person—and why parenting isn't about having the answers, but about doing the work with honesty and compassion.I WROTE MY FIRST BOOK!

Not all “civil” behavior is harmless. Some actions, cloaked in sophistication or authority, can be far more destructive than overtly crude ones. From Donald Trump's press interactions to the actions of journalists, university leaders, and political officials, Victor Davis Hanson distinguishes between crass and refined crudity—showing how the latter misleads the public under the guise of authority or expertise—on today's episode of “Victor Davis Hanson: In a Few Words.” “No need to call Jasmine Crockett a low-IQ person or a reporter dumb or stupid or fatty. And I would call that crass crudity. And it's something that Trump does and probably should not do, and people have probably reminded him of that. But there's another type of crudity, I would call that crudity refined crudity. Crass crudity is openly overt, transparent, and condemned. But it's also rhetorical. It doesn't affect policies. It's the ways one reacts to criticism in Trump's case. But what is refined crudity?

Today on Mea Culpa, I'm joined by social media star Aaron Parnas for a wide-ranging conversation about power, spectacle, and global instability. With over 4.6 million followers on TikTok, millions more across platforms, and his Substack The Parnas Perspective ranking as the top news newsletter with more than 615,000 subscribers, Aaron brings massive digital reach and sharp insight into today's political moment.

A former securities litigation attorney in Washington, D.C. and a Forbes 30 Under 30 (Media) honoree, Aaron helps connect the dots between media narratives, political power, and international consequences in an episode that shows how easily chaos fills the void when transparency disappears.

The Context of White Supremacy (C.O.W.S.) Radio Program hosts the weekly summit on Neutralizing Workplace Racism 12/25/25 Once again, RacistMan & RacistWoman do not take holidays, and neither does Gus T. Hopefully, most Victims of Racism are not required to work the plantation for White Jesus's birthday. After avoiding or briefly attending tacky holiday functions, we'll get back to the business of Producing Justice. Gus was especially intrigued by the case of Janique Sanders, a black female who was terminated from her position at the University of North Carolina at Charlotte. She alleges that she was fired in response to her recorded answer to a query about "DEI" at the school. Sanders reportedly told a member of "Accuracy in Media" that the university has reconfigured their "DEI" policy to comply with Pres. Trump's new mandates. The school allegedly investigated this exchange and terminated Sanders' employment. Gus is curious to know if her response violated policy and procedure and if there is a school-mandated position on how employees should respond to questions about the school's DEI position. #NoHolidaysForRacists INVEST in The COWS – http://paypal.me/TheCOWS Cash App: https://cash.app/$TheCOWS CALL IN NUMBER: 720.716.7300 CODE 564943#

Following the murders of Rob and Michele Reiner, their son, Nick, has been charged with their killings. Media reports focused on Nick's long history of substance abuse, oversimplifying what is clearly a more complex situation. Anna interviewed Nick a decade ago with his mother sitting alongside him and while the original interview is no longer online, we are releasing it as part of this episode. We're highly aware of what a sensitive and tragic topic this is and want to be entirely clear that we don't have any firsthand knowledge of the exact sequence of events that led to this horrific situation. What we have is first-hand experience with the people involved and our own experience with addiction and recovery. Check out all things Lisa and all things Anna.

In this episode of Proud Stutter, Maya talks with tech entrepreneur Kanav Hasija about growing up with a severe stutter in India, being bullied in school, and how changing cities gave him the chance to redefine himself. Kanav shares how facing fear head on through quizzes, speeches, and leadership roles helped shift his relationship with speaking, and how stuttering later shaped the way he communicates as a founder. He walks through his journey from early engineering experiments to building healthcare and construction tech companies, and reflects on how stuttering pushed him to be more precise, patient, and resilient. The conversation also digs into how bullying can make you guarded while also fueling ambition, and how people who stutter often move between structure and creativity. Kanav closes by sharing his current project, a free, game based app designed to help kids who stutter through early intervention, better diagnostics, and accessible technology.-----Big thanks to Proud Stutter's recurring supporters: Jennifer Bolen, Jerry Slaff, Josh Compton, Pablo Meza, Alexandra Mosby, Ingo Helbig, Jonathan Reiss, Jason Smith, Paige McGill, Wayne Engebretson, Swathy Manavalan, and Martha Horrocks.If you can become a monthly donor at $10 or more, we'll give you access to ad-free episodes and bonus Proud Stutter+ content as a token of our thanks!

In this December 26 edition of Badlands Daily, CannCon and Chris Paul continue their real-time analysis of ongoing political and cultural developments, focusing on narratives that have stalled, strategies that have failed to gain traction, and the broader implications moving forward. The discussion emphasizes accountability, media framing, and the importance of sustained pressure rather than performative action. Throughout the episode, the hosts reflect on long-running efforts that have produced little progress, highlight the value of supporting aligned businesses and platforms, and reinforce the role Badlands Media plays in independent coverage. This episode maintains a conversational, analytical flow rooted in observation, commentary, and audience awareness rather than breaking news, offering listeners context, perspective, and continuity as events unfold.

Pantomime, or panto, is a family comedy filled with fairy tales, music, slapstick and audience participation and is a holiday season staple across the UK.

  Eine Kundin hat von Selbständigkeit geträumt und Auftritten in social Media. Wir hatten ihr kraftvolles Warum, ihre Vision, ihre Mission, Lieblingskunden etc wunderbar ausgearbeitet, als sich auf einmal der Glaubenssatz gezeigt hat:  "ich bin ein schüchterner Mensch" Und Raum und Kraft verlangt hat. Das "ich bin ..."  kannst du verändern! Du hast immer die Wahl, weiterhin auf diesem Glaubensmuster durch die Welt zu navigieren oder es zu löschen. Die Kundin hat sich für ein Löschen entschieden. Dazu sind wir durch 3 Überlegungen gegangen: Wo kommt diese Eingruppierung als "schüchterner Mensch" her? Ist es ein Label von anderen? Oder hat sie sich selber als schüchtern empfunden? In welchen Situationen agiert sie ruhig und fühlt sich wohl? Welche Herausforderungen hat sie gemeistert in ihrem Leben, die dem Label "ich bin schüchtern"widersprechen? Hier ist eine ganze Liste zusammengekommen, die nichts mit Schüchternheit zu tun hat und das Glaubensmuster wie Schnee in der Sonne hat schmelzen lassen. Anschliessend sind wir in ihr neues "ich bin…" eingetaucht und haben Kopf und Körper mit diesem neuen Lebensgefühl vertraut gemacht. Sie ist in Frieden mit sich gegangen. Sie hat ihr "ich bin" neu ausgesucht. Und sie ist authentisch aufgeblüht. Ihre Authentizität ist immer stabiler und klarer geworden. Das "Ich bin schüchtern"  ist immer mehr verblasst und schliesslich ganz verschwunden. Trau dich, dein Lieblingsleben zu kreieren. Du darfst souverän & gelassen durch dein Leben navigieren! Weil dein Leben leicht sein darf. Sei dir wichtig. Du bist unendlich wertvoll.

For my Christmas Special: We had former Associated Press Europe and Middle East editor Dan Perry join to talk about why Bari Weiss and CBS and other major media outlets continue to bow down in fear of Donald Trump even as his power base is straight up evaporating under his feet.At the very end of the show I talked about a topic near and dear to my heart: Jewish Christmas. It's a story of Chinese food, sexy camels, and Hannukah Harry.And I started out with a Spotify wrapped on Donald Trump's 2025 year in review.00:00 Welcome to the Blue Amp Live Stream00:25 Introducing Today's Show and Guests01:58 Spotify Wrapped: Donald Trump's 2025 Year in Review05:08 Economic Report Card: Trump's 2025 Performance11:39 Deportation and Immigration Policies Under Trump15:45 Media and Government: The Bari Weiss Controversy27:28 Trump's Claims of Ending Wars: Fact or Fiction?30:48 The Psychology Behind Trump's Lies31:40 Trump's Stance on Venezuela35:28 Debating Media Credibility38:24 The Polarization of Politics51:39 Holiday Reflections and Sign-Off

The Bigger Picture Also -On this week's Not All Hood Weekly Drop, Candace Kelley sits down with Dr. Dabenga (American University), author of Lies About Black People, to unpack rising fears around dual citizenship, naturalization, and denaturalization. They discuss claims circulating about policies that could pressure dual citizens to “choose” a nationality, and what that would mean for millions of Black and Brown people, especially families with older relatives and inconsistent historical records. Dr. Dabenga argues this moment fits a broader pattern of escalating enforcement—moving from border messaging to interior targeting—raising concerns about ICE encounters, documentation demands, and “lawless” enforcement behavior. Candace and Dr. Dabenga also break down practical protection steps: don't go anywhere with unidentified agents, ask bystanders to record everything, understand what kinds of warrants are required, and build a family plan for emergencies. They also broaden the conversation to diaspora identity—why people pursue dual citizenship for safety, opportunity, and connection—and how media narratives can shape misunderstandings between African Americans and Africans. This is an urgent, real-world conversation about immigration enforcement, civil rights, due process, and community preparedness—with history, context, and tools you can actually use. Across Netflix, iHeartRadio, Warner Bros., and Paramount, the signal is clear: Media is consolidating quietly, not loudly. Partnerships are the new acquisitions, and acquisitions are increasingly about IP, audience, and infrastructure—not prestige. This week reinforces that the next wave of media power won't come from who makes the most content—but from who controls distribution, data, and direct audience relationships. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Not All Hood (NAH) podcast takes a look at the lived experiences and identities of Black people in America. Infused with pop culture, music, and headlining news, the show addresses the evolution, exhilaration, and triumphs of being rooted in a myriad of versions of Black America.

The New Yorker turned a hundred this year. And marking the occasion is a new documentary film on Netflix titled: “The New Yorker at 100”. But with some 5000 print issues, and ten decades worth of reporting, illustrating, and editing… where does one even begin?

Rachel Maddow shares a look at how outrage over government corruption in Bulgaria prompted massive protests and eventually the resignation of the prime minister and his government. And in the United States, for all of Donald Trump's unpopular policies being protested across the country, the self-dealing and corruption that has become his administration's hallmark may ultimately be what leads to Trump's downfall. Julie K. Brown, investigative reporter for the Miami Herald who first exposed the scandal of how the Jeffrey Epstein case was handed, talks with Rachel Maddow about feedback she is receiving from survivors of Epstein's abuse about finding their own names in released documents despite heavy redactions that appear to make a greater priority of protecting the identities and information of people involved with Epstein than to protect his victims as the law instructs.Rep. Jamie Raskin joins to discuss how an ownership change and recent editorial decisions by CBS News is raising concerns that Donald Trump and the billionaires who support him are making progress on building state media.

On Monday's Mark Levin Show, WREC's Ben Ferguson fills in for Mark. There are rumors ​that ​the ​media ​and ​the ​Democratic ​Party ​are ​pushing ​that President ​Trump, his approval ratings, and the Republican ​Party are a ​disaster.  It's a lie. Trump enjoys ​a ​50% ​approval ​rating ​with ​a ​net ​approval ​rating ​of ​+9 ​points. This approval will only go higher next year from upcoming policies like no taxes on tips, Social Security, or overtime.  11% of Republicans express dissatisfaction with Trump's performance. A significant portion of this discontent likely stems from his strong support for Israel, alienating an anti-Semitic segment that prioritizes "America only" and includes figures like Nick Fuentes, Tucker Carlson, and Candace Owens. Also, Trump announced the construction of major ships, including battleships, which the U.S. hasn't built since the 1990s, to restore the nation's naval force as the most lethal in the world. These ships will be built in America, thereby sustaining American jobs. Later, the opposition to Benjamin Netanyahu refuses to join his proposed October 7th commission of inquiry because they seek to oust him and his allies, fearing that transparent findings without evidence of his negligence would hinder their power gains and bolster his position.  Afterward, Trump's self-deportation plan is brilliant. By year's end, illegal immigrants who voluntarily leave receive a $3,000 holiday stipend, assistance to depart, and potential future re-entry, whereas those caught and deported face permanent exclusion. This is cost-effective compared to enforced deportations amid migrants' economic burdens like job loss, higher rents, and home prices for Americans.  We need more self-deportations by illegal aliens.
