Podcasts about Minds

One man falls asleep in the early 1920s… and wakes up to a world on the brink of the moon landing. In this episode of The Box of Oddities, Kat and Jethro explore the chilling true story behind encephalitis lethargica—the mysterious neurological epidemic that left thousands frozen in time. Through the haunting experience of Leonard, a patient who remained aware for decades inside his own unmoving body, we dive into questions of consciousness, time, and what it means to truly be alive. Then, in a wildly unexpected turn, the conversation shifts to the strange, shocking, and sometimes downright dangerous history of birth control—from ancient Egyptian remedies and medieval amulets to Lysol douches and goat bladder condoms. It's bizarre history, unsettling medical mysteries, and laugh-out-loud moments you won't believe are real. Perfect for fans of weird facts, strange history, and the wonderfully unsettling—this episode delivers curiosity, humor, and a reminder that humans have always been… creative.

We try to avoid thinking about death. We push it into the background of our minds. But beneath the surface of our thoughts there is a quiet "hum" of mortality creating an undercurrent of anxiety. In this episode of Wisdom of the Sages, a deeply personal reflection on aging, grief, and mortality opens into a powerful exploration of spiritual philosophy. Raghunath and Kaustubha explain that the only way to quiet that hum is not by ignoring it, but by confronting it with truth — truth about the nature of the self and the liberating insights of Vedic wisdom. The discussion also explores one of the most mysterious teachings of the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam — an ancient Sanskrit text that explores devotion to Krishna and the nature of the soul: the story of the gopīs — the cowherd women of Vrindavan whose hearts were completely absorbed in Krishna. Their vulnerability reveals the essence of devotion — surrendering the ego and awakening divine love.

In October 2024, two men in Detroit believed they had found the perfect target. A longtime jeweler and pawnbroker whose success made him seem like easy money.They came prepared with disguises, a stolen truck, and a plan designed to look official. But when they arrived at the home of 72 year old Hussein “Sam” Murray in Rochester Hills, that plan began to collapse.A story about assumption, desperation, and how the promise of one last score can end in something far darker.How to support:For extra perks including exclusive content, early release, and ad-free episodes -Go to - PatreonHow to connect:WebsiteInstagramFacebookTwitterTheme and Closing Track:Original compositions created for The Minds of MadnessPlease check out our sponsors and help support the podcast:Shopify - Sign up for a one-dollar-per-month trial period at shopify.com/madnessQuince - Upgrade your wardrobe with pieces made to last with Quince.

What does it take to think like a champion? This book will change how you think about SUCCESS — and your English. AJ's English Book Club starts "The Champion's Mind" by Jim Afremow. Champions don't just train their bodies. They train their MINDS. And that's exactly what this book teaches — the same mental skills used by Olympic athletes, pro sports stars, and peak performers in every field. And here's the connection: these mental skills are EXACTLY what you need to master English. Confidence. Visualization. A growth mindset. Feeding the positive wolf, not the negative one. This is the FUEL that powers your English speaking success. In this episode, we cover Chapters 1 and 2 — and I teach you important English vocabulary from the book along the way. You learn English AND you learn powerful success strategies at the same time. That's the Book Club way.

On March 13th I spoke at a College to Students in the General Studies Department at Jamaica Theological Seminary on The Power and Value of General Studies.I shared my journey, highlighting how interdisciplinary studies have made me into a world citizen.In the beginning we wrapped for 20 minutes then I spoke:The Power of General Studies: Preparing the Mind for a Complex WorldGood morning students, faculty, and friends.Life, if we are honest about it, is really about people—people and how people relate to one another.Yet life is also something else: it is what you make of it… or what you allow others to make of it for you.That realization did not come to me overnight.It came through experience, travel, struggle, and most importantly through the kind of thinking that General Studies encourages.Today I want to share my journey with you, and through that journey show you why General Studies is one of the most valuable foundations you can have for lifeRenaldo McKenzie is author of Neoliberalism, Globalization, Income Inequality Poverty and Resistance and the upcoming book:Neoliberal Globalization Reconsidered, Unfair Competition and the Death of Nations.

Organizations spend billions of dollars every year on leadership training, workshops, and development programs. Yet most of it doesn't change anything. Why? Because most training educates the mind but never moves behavior. In this episode of The Leadership Sandbox, Tammy J. Bond breaks down why leadership training so often fails in organizations — even when the content is excellent. You'll learn: • Why training transfer rarely turns into behavior change • How leadership modeling determines whether training sticks • Why off-the-shelf leadership programs rarely solve real problems • The difference between knowledge and behavioral reinforcement • What leaders must do if they want training to actually work If the behaviors in your workplace haven't changed after the training ended, this episode will explain exactly why.

Send a textHow do we protect ourselves in a digital world where attackers face almost no real consequences?In this episode of Joey Pinz Discipline Conversations, Joey Pinz sits down with cybersecurity founder and inventor Mike Siers for a thought-provoking conversation that challenges everything we assume about online security, identity, and trust.Mike's journey begins in the Florida National Guard and a deployment to Afghanistan, where life-altering experiences shaped how he sees service, responsibility, and problem-solving. That same mindset later led him into healthcare innovation—and eventually into cybersecurity—after realizing that the internet lacks one critical element found in the physical world: real risk for bad actors.Inspired by military strategy and an MIT thesis on cyber power projection, Mike explains a radical idea: what if unauthorized access attempts cost money? Instead of defenders absorbing endless attacks, attackers would inherit the risk before they even try.This conversation explores how empathy fuels innovation, why most cybersecurity models are reactive by design, and how shifting incentives could dramatically change online behavior. It's a powerful look at leadership, responsibility, and building solutions not just for today—but for the next generation. ⭐ Top 3 Highlights

Send a textIn this episode of Joey Pinz Discipline Conversations, Joey Pinz sits down with Mark Hardy, a retired U.S. Navy Captain and longtime cybersecurity executive, for a powerful conversation on leadership, growth, and decision-making under pressure.Mark shares what it was like stepping into command on September 11th in Lower Manhattan, leading without resources, infrastructure, or certainty—and how those moments shaped his lifelong approach to people and leadership. From developing future leaders to creating environments where individuals can step up when it matters most, this conversation goes far beyond theory.They explore why logic alone rarely drives lasting change, why emotional triggers are often the real catalyst for transformation, and how high-performing professionals can unintentionally disconnect from the very feelings that help them grow. Mark also reflects on cybersecurity careers, executive credibility, and why protecting people—not breaking systems—is the real challenge.This episode blends real-world leadership, personal evolution, and hard-earned wisdom from decades in the Navy, consulting, and cybersecurity—making it a must-listen for leaders, builders, and anyone navigating high-stakes decisions. ⭐ Top 3 Highlights

The Nazis were in many ways unique, but the Army psychiatrist who evaluated the two dozen defendants at Nuremberg in 1945 saw in Germany's war criminals the potential for authoritarianism in all societies, including America. Douglas Kelley's warnings were not well received at the time, but they resonate today, as unaccountable authoritarian figures make war in Europe, the Middle East, and elsewhere. Author Jack El-Hai is our guest. Jack El-Hai is a magazine writer and nonfiction author who covers history, medicine, and crime.

SMALL ACTS, BIG IMPACTWhat if the most powerful learning tools fit in your pocket and your daily routine? We sit down with Candi to explore how tiny, intentional moments—eye tracking with a flashlight, stacking blocks, reading lips during feeds, and simple affirmations—become the foundation for motor skills, language, and secure attachment. Candi shares the origin story of Let's Talk Kids and Baby Know, built with award-winning early childhood educators, and explains how clinical best practices meet everyday play so parents can support development without overwhelm.We dig into the difference between “wait and see” and “start now,” with practical guidance parents can use from birth to age three. You'll hear about culturally responsive kits co-created with community partners, university evaluations validating outcomes, and an unexpected breakout: teen dads using meditations and affirmations to handle overnights with confidence. We go inside the entrepreneurial journey too—how to scale through nonprofit and school partnerships, why cultural translation is more than swapping words, and what it takes to keep momentum when funding lags behind the science.This conversation also reaches beyond the nursery. Candi talks advocacy at the Capitol for families and infants who can't speak for themselves, the crucial window of zero to three in brain development, and why presence and repair matter just as much as milestones. We reflect on maternity and paternity leave for founders, wise approaches to nutrition and allergy introduction, and the role of faith and community in helping parents feel seen. If you're a parent, educator, or entrepreneur, you'll walk away with clear steps you can try today—and a renewed belief that small acts truly deliver big impact.Enjoyed this one?

Intelligence is a many splendored thing, especially when it comes to comparisons between species. Chimpanzees are better than humans at some numerical tasks, but less good at understanding what numbers actually mean. One window on the ways that species differ is how they play amongst themselves. I talk with anthropologist and cognitive scientist Erica Cartmill about modes of play and other social behaviors among various species, and what they reveal about the ways we all think.

Find me on Substack!Matt Reustle is the former CEO of Colossus and architect of the Business Breakdowns podcast, who spent a decade at Goldman Sachs mastering business dissection before building one of the investment world's most influential media platforms.The episode is sponsored by TenzingMEMO — the AI-powered market intelligence platform I use daily for smarter company analysis. Code BILLIONS gets you an extended trial + 10% off.3:00 – Matt reflects on his upbringing: engineer father, educator mother, and how dinner table conversations about managing teams shaped his thinking on accountability and action.5:00 – The pivot from Goldman Sachs to Colossus: Matt describes the frustration with compliance-driven communication at large firms and the freedom podcasting offered to reach wider audiences with authentic analysis.7:15 – Second-order impact of content: how episodes designed for investors also reach management teams, founders, and unexpected audiences who extract different lessons.10:51 – From analyzing businesses to running one: Matt describes eating “humble pie” when moving from the investor seat to the operator seat, gaining appreciation for nuance, experimentation, and details that don't scale.15:06 – The Patek Philippe episode and stewardship: watches powered by human movement, built to last centuries, and the marketing genius of positioning a product as something you never truly own but look after for the next generation.19:09 – Long-term thinking benefits you now: Bogumil argues that applying a multi-generational filter to decisions delivers returns in the current generation, not just future ones.22:58 – What makes a compounder: Matt identifies three characteristics — a self-reinforcing sales model, religious cost efficiency, and disciplined capital allocation — set against the macro backdrop of industries growing faster than GDP.31:35 – Mapping value chains: finding mission-critical, low-cost components with high barriers to entry where small players capture outsized profits.37:34 – Financial hygiene: management teams that communicate future flexibility and demonstrate depth of knowledge signal discipline; track records outweigh rhetoric.43:40 – Evolutionary DNA of businesses: the ability to adapt and pivot, what Henry Ellenbogen calls “act two companies,” and why the best investors change their minds when information changes.49:30 – Audience of one philosophy: creating content for a specific person breeds focus, quality, and trust — and paradoxically reaches far more people than content designed for mass appeal.54:35 – AI as a creative superpower: interacting with your own content library in new ways, finding use cases from peers, and owning the technology rather than letting it own you.58:20 – Success as fulfillment: family, creation, and relationships — Matt's definition shaped by watching his parents balance it all.Podcast Program – Disclosure StatementBlue Infinitas Capital, LLC is a registered investment adviser and the opinions expressed by the Firm's employees and podcast guests on this show are their own and do not reflect the opinions of Blue Infinitas Capital, LLC.

In the fall of 2021, a young couple in Cobb County, Georgia thought they'd found their dream home. An upscale subdivision. A quiet street. A perfect place to raise their two year old son.What they could not have known was that the house came with an unspoken history. A neighbor who had already crossed the line. A fear that had driven the previous owners to leave. And a threat that did not disappear when the “For Sale” sign went up.How to support:For extra perks including exclusive content, early release, and ad-free episodes -Go to - PatreonHow to connect:WebsiteInstagramFacebookTwitterTheme and Closing Track:Original compositions created for The Minds of MadnessPlease check out our sponsors and help support the podcast:Shopify - Sign up for a one-dollar-per-month trial period at shopify.com/madnessQuince - Upgrade your wardrobe with pieces made to last with Quince.

In this episode, Emily sits down with education leader, school founder, and author Chris Balme to completely reframe how we view the middle school years. Rather than treating early adolescence as a miserable phase to simply muddle through, it's a period of profound neurological transformation and peak human potential. Redesigning educational environments for neurodivergent students, by prioritizing smaller, consistent advisory cohorts and scaffolding executive function, creates a safer, more engaging culture for everyone. Other topics include the activation of the "social brain," why a baseline of belonging must be established before academic achievement can occur, and how traditional middle school structures often inadvertently fight against a student's natural developmental drives. TAKEAWAYS Middle school is a period of rapid cognitive and social development that requires specific developmental maps, not lowered expectations. A balanced and healthy social brain provides a secure sense of belonging, which is a biological imperative. Structuring middle schools to support neurodivergent learners enhances psychological safety and improves the educational baseline for the entire student body. Middle schoolers possess a highly attuned radar for authenticity and are skeptical of artificial relevance, like busywork. Objective, real-world responsibilities massively boost a middle schooler's maturity and self-efficacy. Mental health professionals, join us for our next live 90-minute CE training, Inherited Neurodivergence: Supporting Parents' Identity Journeys, featuring presenter, Dr. Amy Marschall. The event is Friday, March 6 at 2:00 pm Eastern/11:00 am Pacific. It's approved for continuing education through the American Psychological Association and the National Board of Certified Counselors. If you can't make it live, you can still register for the self-study version. Chris Balme is an education leader, writer, and school founder dedicated to helping young people unlock their human potential. He currently serves as Co-Principal at Hakuba International School and is the Founder and Director of Argonaut, an online advisory program supporting middle schoolers around the world. Chris is an Ashoka Fellow, recognized for his leadership as a changemaker in education. He is the author of two books: Finding the Magic in Middle School, written for parents and teachers, and Challenge Accepted, written directly for middle school students. Through his work, writing, and international speaking and training, Chris continues to inspire more human-centered, transformative approaches to education. He lives in the San Francisco Bay Area with his wife and three children.

In the six months since the Annunciation Church and School mass shooting, parents have been mobilizing. Last week, the Annunciation Light Alliance launched at the state capitol. It's a nonpartisan advocacy group of 160 Annunciation parents pushing for change that will keep kids safe. One family part of that work is taking another approach. Mike Moyski and Jackie Flavin are the parents of 10-year-old Harper Moyski, who was one of two children who were shot and killed in the mass shooting. In the last six months, they've welcomed more than 20 state lawmakers into their home — Republicans and Democrats — to have one-on-one conversations about gun violence and school safety. Mike and Jackie sat down with me for a conversation about how they're working to make sure no other family has to go through what they've gone through.

On a cold February night in Somerset, England, a retired couple sat down to celebrate a birthday dinner during the COVID lockdown.Hours later, police were standing outside their quiet bungalow while one of them calmly admitted what had just happened inside.What began as an ordinary evening of steak, lobster, and a video call with family would end with a husband on the kitchen floor and a case that left even seasoned investigators struggling to understand how the night had spiraled so far out of control.How to support:For extra perks including exclusive content, early release, and ad-free episodes -Go to - PatreonHow to connect:WebsiteInstagramFacebookTwitterTheme and Closing Track:Original compositions created for The Minds of MadnessPlease check out our sponsors and help support the podcast:Shopify - Sign up for a one-dollar-per-month trial period at shopify.com/madnessQuince - Upgrade your wardrobe with pieces made to last with Quince.

Send a textIn this powerful and deeply human conversation, Joey Pinz sits down with therapist, author, and conscious living guide Katherine Jansen-Byrkit to explore what it truly means to move from surviving life to living awake.Katherine shares her personal journey—from childhood trauma and a suicide attempt at 16 to a lifetime devoted to healing, meditation, and helping others reclaim their inner world. Drawing from her book River to Ocean: Living in the Flow of Wakefulness, she explains how our thoughts, bodies, relationships, and spiritual paths are deeply interconnected—and how ignoring any one of them keeps us stuck.This episode dives into meditation as a practical tool (not an escape), why most suffering comes after thought, how intrinsic worth differs from external success, and why true change requires integration—not just motivation. Joey and Katherine also unpack conscious relationships, healing trauma without labels defining us, and why curiosity may be the most underused skill in modern life.If you're searching for peace, clarity, or a deeper connection to yourself and others, this conversation offers grounded wisdom you can actually live. 

Send a textIn this powerful conversation, Joey Pinz sits down with Dr. Toni Cooper, a psychologist with over four decades of experience helping people break through emotional, mental, and spiritual barriers that keep them stuck.Dr. Toni shares her origin story—from growing up with structure and accountability through Catholic education, to forming a deep personal relationship with Jesus at just sixteen years old. That early foundation shaped both her professional path and her holistic approach to helping people move forward in life.Throughout the episode, Dr. Toni explains the difference between psychology and psychiatry, explores why so many people struggle to change even when they want to, and unpacks how faith and psychology can work together without being confused or diluted. The conversation dives into what truly holds people back, how past experiences quietly shape present behavior, and why intentional growth requires both self-awareness and action.This episode is an invitation to reflect, reset, and move forward with clarity—whether you're navigating personal challenges, emotional healing, or simply trying to live a more aligned and meaningful life. ⭐ Top 3 Highlights

In this episode Dr. Simon Ruffell joins to discuss the research on ayahuasca for PTSD. Dr. Ruffell is a psychiatrist, researcher, and student of curanderismo (Amazonian shamanism) working at the intersection of Western psychiatry, traditional plant medicine, and Indigenous knowledge systems. He is Executive Director of Onaya, Lecturer in Psychology and Psychedelics at the University of Exeter, and Chief Medical Officer of MINDS, with a focus on integrative and relational approaches to healing and consciousness. In this conversation, Dr. Ruffell explores the emerging research on ayahuasca as a treatment for PTSD, drawing on both Western scientific models and Indigenous Shipibo knowledge systems. He outlines how ayahuasca may work through mechanisms such as increased neuroplasticity, disruption of rigid predictive models, and potential epigenetic shifts related to stress and trauma, while emphasizing that these biological explanations exist alongside Indigenous understandings of "cleaning ancestral lines." Sharing preliminary findings from his ongoing research with military veterans in collaboration with Heroic Hearts Project, Dr. Ruffell discusses significant reductions in PTSD symptoms at six-month follow-up, the powerful role of community and ceremony, and the ethical complexities of studying sacred practices through Western scientific tools. He closes with a moving story of a veteran whose healing journey illustrates both the promise and the limits of psychedelic medicine when embedded in relational and cultural context.   In this episode, you'll hear: Western scientific theories for how ayahuasca may alleviate PTSD How trauma-related epigenetic changes may be transmitted across generations Preliminary results from Dr. Ruffell's study of ayahuasca for veterans diagnosed with PTSD The role of community bonding and peer support among veterans in maintaining therapeutic gains Why ayahuasca research in the Amazon includes a broader plant-based healing system—not just the brew itself How Indigenous healers interpret epigenetic findings as confirmation of longstanding ancestral frameworks The ethical considerations of bringing Western measurement tools (like EEG) into sacred ceremonial contexts   Quotes: "This is what I find most interesting about our research—that it is cutting edge science but at the same time, when we conduct it with indigenous healers, we get a whole new perspective on what could be happening when it comes to interpreting the results and also making decisions of what to research as well." [14:09] "According to measures of PTSD on the scales that we're looking at, over 80% of the participants that were scoring for PTSD before their ayahuasca retreats and no longer scoring for PTSD at that six month follow up. So it's not just immediately after the ayahuasca retreats. It's six months later. And that's super, super encouraging." [15:52] "When we take things to the lab, one of the reasons that we might see the effect size diminishing is because we no longer have shamanism, basically, which is exerting a huge effect." [16:55] "Traditionally what would happen is that the curandero would drink ayahuasca and the participants would just be there and the curandero would use the visions that they had with ayahuasca to look into the participants and to diagnose them. And then the healing would come through them singing their medicinal chants, which are the icaros. And then afterwards they would give them a prescription of plants or whatever it is that they needed. And sometimes the prescription would be to drink ayahuasca, but most of the time it wouldn't be. [27:18] "You can't separate like DMT, in my eyes, from the rest of the compounds in ayahuasca, from the ceremony, from the jungle. That, in my opinion, is what makes up Shipibo. Otherwise you just have a bunch of chemicals."

Join us on Patreon at patreon.com/humpdayquickies We welcome Judson and Treasure to the sexpartment for their raw, unfiltered origin story. Married for 26 years with five kids and a history of pure monogamy, this couple spent decades focused on family Disney trips and vanilla life until the kids grew older, the nights got longer, and curiosity quietly took over. What started as Judson's long-dormant interest in kink (FetLife since 2012, early bedroom rope play captured on a Fuji FinePix) evolved into Treasure's surprising willingness to explore, sparked by a simple motto: "As long as there are snacks." Their first real step? Joining The Mark, a Nashville kink club, for a Shibari class that turned into an eye-opening night of live scenes, flogging orgasms, violet wand demos, aggressive play, puppy play, and a "princess" pleasuring herself with a magic wand right in front of them while staring their way. Sitting on a futon, watching it all unfold, Treasure's hands started wandering, and they left the club extremely turned on and forever changed. From there, the journey accelerated: a traumatizing Red Room podcast almost derailed everything (Treasure's epic "Fuck you, don't talk about this again" reaction to explicit language she wasn't ready for), but discovering Hump Day Quickies flipped the script. They binged episodes together, got hooked on parallel play as a soft entry point, and even had Treasure pull over the car after the MotorBunny/Sybian racing sounds episode (Season 1 Episode 20) to rush home for intense sex. With a unicorn-numbered Motor Bunny still boxed under the bed, violet wands, glowing rope, and a growing love for themes and costumes, Judson and Treasure share how research, communication, and no-pressure exploration turned their strong marriage into something even hotter. This episode is packed with Southern charm, hilarious mishaps (misread eye contact with a guy who wasn't into women), real-talk boundaries, and proof that it's never too late to crave snacks—and more.

In this episode, Dr. Tony Ebel brings his live presentation from the Making Connections Conference — hosted by Team Luke Hope for Minds in Austin, Texas — directly to the podcast community. Dr. Tony shares his personal journey as both a father and a neurologically-focused pediatric chiropractor, opening with his son Oliver's dramatic birth story and near-fatal hypoxic brain injury. From there, he teaches the foundational neuroscience behind why sequencing matters more than the number of interventions a child receives. He breaks down the neurological hierarchy — from brainstem to neuromotor to gut and immune systems — and explains why calming and reorganizing the nervous system must come first before other therapies can truly take hold. This episode is essential listening for any family navigating pediatric brain injury, complex neurological conditions, or chronic health challenges who feels overwhelmed by options and unsure where to start.----Links & Resources:Learn more about or donate to https://teamlukehopeforminds.org/----Key Topics & Timestamps05:00 Meet Dr. Tony: Faith, Family & a Team Fighting for Your Kids 11:00 Oliver's Story: The Birth Trauma That Changed Everything 19:00 What the Neurologists Called "Spontaneous Recovery" 27:00 When to Hit Pause: Clearing Room for Foundational Healing 29:00 The Neurological Hierarchy: How Brains Are Built and How They Heal 44:00 Subluxation, the Cascade & What a Chiropractic Adjustment Actually Does 53:00 Neurological Soft Signs: The Forgotten Trump Cards of Brain-Based Healing 56:00 Oliver on ECMO: Watching the Monitors Change in Real Time 1:00:00 Closing: The Combination Lock & A Word for Every Parent-- Follow us on Socials: Instagram: @pxdocs Facebook: Dr. Tony Ebel & The PX Docs Network Youtube: The PX Docs For more information, visit PXDocs.com to read informative articles about the power of Neurologically-Focused Chiropractic Care.
