They explore the psychological and cultural forces driving this trend, including trauma, social contagion, and the influence of online communities. Mia shares her personal journey and offers a critical perspective on gender-affirming care, the phenomenon of autogynephilia, and the concept of diagnostic overshadowing—where gender identity becomes the sole focus of treatment at the expense of underlying mental health conditions.

Most scholars are both haunted, even undone, by the task of writing papers for peers and traveling to strange campuses to deliver them. Yet we keep it up--we inflict it on our peers, we inflict it on ourselves. Why? To answer that question, Recall This Book assembled three (if you count John) scholars of Victorian literature asked to speak at the Spring 2025 Northeastern Victorian Studies Association conference. Their discussion began with the idea that agreeing to give papers is an act of “externalized self-promising” and ranged across the reasons that floating ideas before our peers is terrifying, exhilarating and ultimately necessary.   Kristin Mahoney's books include Literature and the Politics of Post-Victorian Decadence (Cambridge UP, 2015) and Queer Kinship After Wilde: Transnational Decadence and the Family. Nasser Mufti 's first scholarly book was Civilizing War and he is currently working on a monograph about what Britain's nineteenth century looks like from the perspective of such anti-colonial thinkers as C.L.R. James and Eric Williams. RTB listeners don't need to hear about John or his Arendt obsession.   Mentioned in the episode Theosophical Society in Chennai Annie Besant Jiddu Krishnamurthi in his early life was a not-quite-orphan child guru for Besant.  Eric Williams, British Historians and the West Indies on grand theorizations of race by folks like Acton C L R James Adorno's Minima Moralia provides Nasser with an importantreminder of the importance of “hating tradition properly.” H G Wells, The Time Machine and its modernist aftermath eg in the opening pages of Proust's Remembrance of Things Past and in Ford Madox Ford's The Inheritors and The Good Soldier, which is in its own peculiar way a time-travel novel.  The three discuss Foucault's notion of capillarity a form of productive constraint, which Nasser uses to characterize both early 20th century Orientalism, and the paradigms of postcolonialism that replaced it,  Paul Saint Amour's chapter on Ford Madox Ford is in Tense Future. John Guillory on the distinctions between criticism and scholarship in Professing Criticism; the rhizomatic appeal of B-Side Books. The “hedgehog and the fox” as a distinction comes from a poem by Archilochus—and sparked  Isaiah Berlin's celebrated essay of the same name. Pamela Fletcher the Victorian Painting of Modern Life .

We'd love to hear from you, send us a text about your favorite show!Enjoy this encore replay of a listener favorite show!In the whirlwind of our daily lives, taking the time to slow down can feel like a gentle rebellion against the hustle. It's a magical invitation to drop into the richness of the present and savor life's simple joys. Imagine greeting each morning not as a race to the finish line but as an opportunity to truly engage with each moment. Whether it's feeling the cool morning air on your face or hearing the city sounds, there's a profound beauty in the details when we take the time to notice them. Slowing down doesn't mean stepping back from life; instead, it's stepping fully into it, embracing every sensation and experience with open arms and a big wide open heart.There's an undeniable sweetness in choosing a slower path. It's giving our body the message that it's okay to unwind, to take the scenic route, to breathe deeply.  Slowing down becomes not just an act of self-love but an act of rebellion against a world incessantly urging us to do more, faster. It allows us to reclaim our time as our own and to live not by the clock. Can you feel the liberation in choosing to linger over your morning smoothie, to lose yourself in conversation, or to simply sit with your thoughts under the stars?Embracing the art of slowing down is a powerful way to infuse our days with intention and grace. It's the art of crafting a life that is more deliberate and less reactive, one slow, deep breath at a time.  In this episode we dive into the Art of Slow and embracing a mindful, purposeful life.  We also share tips for how to transition from hustle to harmony

Viktor Frankl once wrote, “Those who cannot find a deep sense of meaning distract themselves with pleasure.” It's a quote that resonates deeply within the Stoic tradition. The Stoics, much like Frankl, warned against the unmoderated pursuit of indulgence. Pleasure, entertainment, materialism—these things are not inherently wrong, but when used to fill a void of meaning, they become distractions. And distractions, by their nature, pull us away from our true purpose.Yet, there's an intriguing inversion of this quote—one that opens the door to deeper reflection. Chris Williamson, host of Modern Wisdom, proposed it: “Those who cannot find a deep sense of pleasure distract themselves with meaning.” At first glance, this seems to oppose Stoic thought. But when we dig deeper, we find that it holds an important truth for those of us on the path of self-improvement.This podcast is listener-supported; if you would like to support the Strong Stoic (as well as gain access to exclusive content), you can do so on Patreon or Substack:Patreon: www.patreon.com/brandontumblinSubstack: https://strongstoic.substack.com

Cody and Tony venture into the realm of masculinity, employing the metaphor of cars and engines to dissect societal expectations that often trap men in cycles of emotional breakdowns. They discuss the liberation found in vulnerability and authenticity, shedding light on the pressures of portraying perpetual success and the childhood roots of such burdens. Together, they explore the cultural shift towards disposability, contrasting it with the resourcefulness of previous generations who thrived on hands-on skills and hard work. These reflections serve as a reminder to maintain a balance between modern conveniences and traditional craftsmanship. This episode also delves into the profound lessons of time value and family presence, emphasizing the wisdom of prioritizing personal time with loved ones. Cody and Tony also navigate the complexities of masculinity in relationships, unveiling patterns that hinder open communication and suggesting healthier paths forward.

Something for nothingDo rewards and incentives damage our humanity?In much of our personal and professional lives, we receive rewards for good behaviour and carrying out our responsibilities. But, evidence now suggests there are risks to this approach. Studies show rewards can damage wellbeing, fostering dependence and undermining our own sense of control. And neuroscientists have shown those more prone to seeking reward have a 70% higher risk of addiction, with addictive behaviour now present in almost half of the U.S. population. So, should we move away from rewards-based systems, and instead learn to value doing the right thing simply for the sake of, well, doing the right thing?Paul Bloom is a Canadian-American psychologist, bestselling author, and celebrated speaker. Bloom has written widely on human nature, and he won the Klaus J.

In this enlightening conversation, Deepak Chopra discusses the intersection of spirituality and technology, particularly through the lens of his latest book, 'Digital Dharma.' He emphasizes the importance of self-awareness and spirituality in navigating the chaos of modern life, while also introducing his AI platform that personalizes spiritual guidance. Chopra explores the dual nature of technology, the necessity of emotional and spiritual evolution alongside technological advancements, and offers practical advice for achieving inner peace and understanding trauma.

Too Many Options? The Real History of Freedom and Choice with Sophia Rosenfeld The Not Old Better Show, Smithsonian Associates Interview Series QUOTE:    "Our choices shape our identity—but not everyone gets the same menu." – Sophia Rosenfeld ⚖️ Welcome to The Not Old Better Show, Smithsonian Associates Interview Series. I'm Paul Vogelzang, and today, we're asking a question that touches every part of our lives—one that feels especially relevant to those of us 50 and older, navigating life's later chapters with purpose, curiosity, and maybe... a little decision fatigue. What if the very thing we've been told defines our freedom—our ability to choose—is actually overwhelming us? Our guest today, renowned historian Smithsonian Associate Sophia Rosenfeld, asks that very question in her brilliant new book available at Apple Books, The Age of Choice: A History of Freedom in Modern Life. Smithsonian Assocaite Sophia Rosenfeld will be appearing at Smithsonian Associates coming up. Please check out our show notes for more details on her presentation titled: A History of Freedom in Modern Life: The Age of Choice. But we have Sophia Rosenfeld today who'll tell us that from grocery aisles to voting booths, from personal belief to political identity, Rosenfeld takes us on a riveting tour of how we came to equate picking from a menu with liberty itself—and what that belief has cost us. This is no abstract academic exercise. For those of us who've lived through decades of cultural shifts—from the rise of consumer culture to the women's movement to the explosion of digital options—this story feels personal. Why does having more choices so often lead to more anxiety, not more joy? What happens when freedom starts to feel like pressure? Smithsonian Associate Sophia Rosenfeld, chair of the history department at the University of Pennsylvania, brings rich detail, warmth, and sharp insight to this conversation. We'll talk about dance cards and department stores, ballots and beliefs, and how something as simple as choosing your lunch became a reflection of who you are. So, whether you're rethinking your next big decision—or just what kind of toothpaste to buy—this is a conversation you won't want to miss. I'm Paul Vogelzang, and this is The Not Old Better Show. Let's get into it. In a time when everyday life feels saturated with decisions—what to buy, how to vote, who to trust—The Age of Choice reminds us that more options don't always mean more freedom. Sophia Rosenfeld's powerful insight reframes modern liberty, challenging us to rethink how choice shapes our lives, values, and collective future. That's it for today's conversation—fascinating, right? My thanks to  Smithsonian Assocaite Sophia Rosenfeld who will be appearing at Smithsonian Associates coming up. Please check out our show notes for more details on her presentation titled: A History of Freedom in Modern Life: The Age of Choice. Smithsonian Associate Sophia Rosenfeld has taken us from 18th-century shopping stalls to modern-day ballots and browsers, showing us that freedom isn't just about choosing... it's about understanding why we choose, how we choose, and who shapes the options we're given. For those of us over 50, this episode hits home. We've lived through eras where choice expanded dramatically—and now, we're often the ones making the biggest decisions of our lives: retirement, caregiving, health, even where to call home. Rosenfeld's insight is a powerful reminder that freedom isn't about endless options—it's about meaningful ones. You can listen to this episode and so many more at NotOld-Better.com, where our entire archive is available for streaming anytime. Follow us on social media—we're on Twitter at @notoldbetter and Instagram at notoldbetter—and let us know how you define freedom in a world full of choices. This is a production of N.O.B.S. Studios, and I'm your host, Paul Vogelzang. Thanks for spending time with us today, and please—join me again next time.

You've published your book. Congratulations! But if you think your journey ends there, think again. Publishing isn't just the destination—it's a powerful springboard that can open doors you never even imagined. A book can serve as a credibility tool that transforms how people see you. It can lead to speaking engagements, new partnerships, consulting gigs, and countless connections with readers and peers. Your book is more than just pages; it's a key that can unlock opportunities you never thought possible. That's why I guide authors to stay open to the unexpected. Whether it's a chance conversation with a reader that sparks a business deal, an invitation to speak at a major conference, or connections that catapult you to new levels, your book can become a game-changer for your career and business.
