Episode 4212 │ September 1, 2026 Do you worship the institution? The man? The dollar? The title? Scott says that question is the actual root of every crisis he's about to name. WHAT THIS EPISODE COVERS  Scott Kesterson opens the week by naming idolatry — worship of institution, man, dollar, or title — as the root diagnosis beneath every crisis he traces: President Trump's warning that communities rejecting AI data centers risk falling economically behind, which Scott reads as federal coercion designed to strip local control over water, power, and land before the inevitable Ponzi-style collapse leaves those assets in corporate hands; a Jerusalem Post op-ed proposing a debt-forgiveness enlistment program to solve the recruitment gap for a ground war with Iran, revealing how an allied nation's own defense press views American youth; and a quietly disclosed FBI hiring policy change that Scott presents as evidence of an institution so depleted it has begun lowering its own moral floor to fill seats. Scott frames all three as expressions of a single deeper pattern — a corporatocracy embedding itself into government at every level while a nation that no longer hears the voice of God walks blind into decisions with eternal consequence — and argues the only place any of this can actually be resisted is not Washington but the county, the neighbor, the coffee conversation, and the daily question of whether a policy, a war, or a hiring decision would survive being tested against what Christ would actually have a person do. KEY QUESTIONS ADDRESSED  What does Scott mean when he names idolatry — worship of institution, man, dollar, or title — as the root cause connecting AI data center coercion, a foreign policy proposal to recruit indebted Americans into a ground war, and a federal agency's quiet erosion of its own hiring standards? Why does Scott argue that President Trump's warning to communities rejecting AI data centers represents federal overreach into sovereign local decisions — and what does the pattern of land, water, and power rights ending up in corporate hands after an inevitable Ponzi-style collapse reveal about who these agreements actually serve? What is the "who is running America" question Scott poses — and why does he argue that no political fix, protest, or national strategy can resolve a moral and religious crisis that only local, person-to-person action grounded in Christ can actually address?

Santiago González comenta la doble moral de la izquierda, especialmente de Pedro Sánchez.

How does shame curdle into addiction? Ex-dealer and federal informant Sean Hemeon retraces his descent and the long climb back to sober.Full show notes and resources can be found here: jordanharbinger.com/1376What We Discuss with Sean Hemeon:Sean Hemeon was primed for addiction before he ever tried meth. Abandoned at four, taught by his church that being gay made him diseased, meth gave him the confidence and belonging shame had denied him. It didn't create the void, but filled one that was already there.Moral collapse is gradual, not sudden. A year without a sober breath is how a smart person ends up stuffing meth into a dying stranger's nose, hoping to restart his heart. Boundaries don't break all at once — they give way one rationalization at a time.The system meant to stop the harm made it worse. Agents saved in Sean's phone as 'yes' and 'no' pushed him back into dealing to gather intel. A judge charmed by his school's basketball team let him walk. The outcome had less to do with the crime than with luck.A grieving mother found Sean's number on her dead son's last phone bill and called, begging him not to hang up. He hung up. That choice broke his image of himself as a good person and left a debt he's still trying to pay.You can't undo the worst thing you've done, but you can stop running from it. 21 years sober, Sean tells the truth, stays reachable, and would fly to that mother tomorrow if she called. Accountability isn't feeling guilty, but facing the damage.And much more...And if you're still game to support us, please leave a review here — even one sentence helps!

Ver en YouTube https://youtube.com/shorts/62bH62yNERY El caso de Lindsay Clancy expone una de las tensiones más difíciles entre la justicia terrenal, la salud mental y los principios éticos que encontramos en las Escrituras. A la luz del texto bíblico, el principio de igualdad ante la ley es rotundo y universal: "No harás injusticia en el juicio, ni favoreciendo al pobre ni complaciendo al grande; con justicia juzgarás a tu prójimo" (Levítico 19:15). Dios no hace acepción de personas, condición social ni género. Tanto el dolor por las vidas inocentes perdidas como la exigencia de una evaluación justa deben aplicarse con la misma vara a un hombre o a una mujer. La indignación o la compasión social no deberían depender del sexo de quien comete el acto, sino de los hechos objetivos y del discernimiento real de la intención y la capacidad mental del individuo. Al mismo tiempo, la enseñanza bíblica sobre las "ciudades de refugio" y la inimputabilidad nos recuerda la importancia de distinguir entre la maldad premeditada y los actos cometidos bajo un estado de pérdida total de la razón. Si bien la medicina y la justicia humana deben determinar con rigor forense si existió una psicosis real que anuló la voluntad, la reflexión central nos convoca a dos responsabilidades inseparables: Defender la justicia sin doble moral: La empatía social y las garantías procesales ante una crisis psiquiátrica deben ser universales; la vida de un hijo vale igual, y el estándar de evaluación no debe sesgarse por ideologías ni por el género del progenitor. Priorizar el valor de la vida y el juicio justo: El dolor supremo recae en la pérdida irreparable de inocentes. La verdadera justicia bíblica busca la verdad del corazón sin encubrir el mal ni castigar la tragedia involuntaria, recordando que la misericordia no anula la ley, pero el juicio sin imparcialidad destruye la justicia. #lindsayclancytrial #feministas #agustinlaje #casal #estonoesradio #psicosis #pospartoConviértete en un supporter de este podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/radio-ebenezer-rd--3279340/support.ESCUCHAR RADIO

Zlom ključnice in vratnega vretenca ter pretres možganov so posledice včerajšnjega hudega padca najboljšega kolesarja na svetu Tadeja Pogačarja na dirki po Španiji. Na družbenih omrežjih so zaokrožili pretreseni odzivi. Spoštovanje Pogačarju je na včerajšnji podelitvi po etapi izkazal Španec Enric Mas, saj ni želel obleči rdeče majice vodilnega v skupnem seštevku. Druge teme: - Na Islandiji štejejo glasovnice po včerajšnjem referendumu o vnovičnem začetku pogajanj o včlanitvi v Evropsko unijo. - Začasna venezuelska predsednica prepričana, da bo država ohranila nadzor nad svojimi naravnimi viri. - Novo šolsko leto prinaša tudi uvajanje prenovljeni učnih načrtov.

A Navy SEAL commander on identity, faith, and why we fight the wars we fight.Captain Robert "Gus" Gusentine spent nearly 30 years in the Navy, commanding SEAL Team 10 and leading special operations forces from the Philippines to the Pacific. He joins Corey to talk about faith, painting, moral injury, and what it means to defend your identity without losing your soul.Calls to Action✅ Leave a rating and review: lovethepodcast.com/politicsandreligion✅ Subscribe on Substack: coreysnathan.substack.com✅ Watch and subscribe on YouTube: youtube.com/@politicsandreligion✅ Share this episode with someone who reads the news and someone who's given up on it.Key Takeaways:Identity is the last citadel of the soul. Gus argues that when you back someone into a corner over their identity, there's nowhere left for the conversation to go. That's why wars of religion cut so deep.Faith and religion aren't the same fight. Drawing on a mentor's line, "we never go to war over faith, we always go to war over religion," Gus distinguishes belief itself from the practice and politics built around it.Moral injury outlasts the battlefield. Gus and Corey discuss what happens when service members carry out orders that conflict with their conscience, and why caring for that wound is a command responsibility.Art forces you to see differently. Gus talks about painting as a discipline that trained his eye long before it trained his hand, and how that same habit of seeing applies to leadership and writing.About Our Guest:Captain Robert "Gus" Gusentine served nearly 30 years in the Navy, including as an exchange officer with Germany's Kamphschwimmer Company, commander of SEAL Team 10, operations chief (J3) for Special Operations Command Pacific, and commander of Joint Special Operations Task Force Philippines. After retiring in 2014, he led the Strategic Leaders International course at the Naval Special Warfare Schoolhouse, teaching senior military officers and diplomats from around the world.

After a refreshing summer break, I'm back and ready to launch Season Four of Unleashing Sister Saints. And I'm starting this season with an episode centered around an editorial I published in June in the Deseret News titled “Why Moral Clarity Still Matters.” I've felt strongly—especially in recent months—that Latter‑day Saint women (and men) are called to stay deeply ethical, rooted in moral values, and willing to speak up and speak out with courage. This episode is my invitation for all of us to reclaim that clarity and use it to strengthen our discipleship. In this show I'll begin by reading the editorial and then I'll share some of the thoughts and impressions as I revisit the message with fresh eyes and a gospel lens. Welcome back!

Today we tackle three major stories: the upcoming election and the battle between common sense and extremism, the UK's baffling response to the grooming gang crisis with a pamphlet instructing migrants not to rape or harass women, and the Lindsay Clancy case, including the difficult question of whether mental illness erases moral responsibility. Join us as we examine the headlines through a biblical worldview. Find out more at https://ron-johnson-discipleship-podca.pinecast.co

Together, with Fr. Mike, we explore the moral conscience. Fr. Mike emphasizes that even though our intellect has been weakened by sin, we still have some sense, our conscience, that tells us that there is a right and wrong. He also emphasizes the difference between our conscience and our passions. Today's readings are Catechism paragraphs 1776-1782. This episode has been found to be in conformity with the Catechism by the Institute on the Catechism, under the Subcommittee on the Catechism, USCCB.

It was another contentious day in court that once again, ended abruptly after the state’s rebuttal witness began to testify to children’s inherent “strong will to survive’. The defense immediately objected and, after a sidebar, the judge told the witness to step down and called it a day for the jury. This, after defense attorney Kevin Reddington continued to aggressively cross examine the prosecution’s expert witnesses who have testified Clancy was “morally aware” her actions were against the law and that she was NOT in a state of psychosis.

In today's Morning Manna, Rick Wiles and Doc Burkhart examine Proverbs 28:3–5 and the progressive consequences of abandoning God's standard. Solomon exposes oppression from those who should understand suffering, a culture that begins praising what God calls wicked, and the deeper problem beneath both: sin damages our ability to perceive moral reality correctly. This lesson reveals why what we applaud exposes what we truly value, why believers must both contend for truth and fortify themselves in God's Word, and why genuine understanding comes through continually seeking the Lord. Moral clarity is not merely intellectual—it is formed through obedience and relationship with God.

This is in response to episode 489 of Sam Harris' "Making Sense" podcast - in a section only available via subscription. I have clipped the approximately 60 seconds worth of material I am narrowly responding to for fair use in this commentary. The case unpacked is, roughly, that morality can be disconnected from (is orthogonal to) reason broadly is no more than a restatement of moral relativism - and hence false. Morality and science are about objective reality so cannot be “orthogonal”. Moral progress goes hand-in-hand with reason broadly and any “sufficiently advanced” intelligent system would not only realise this, they must understand it to make unbounded, rapid progress.

Casey Musgraves is a singer who is using her concerts to raise money for illegal aliens. Hmmm. I may stubhub my Casey Musgrave tickets. And Dr. Oz joins the show.

Can compassion become dangerous when it ignores truth? In this episode, we unpack the details of the Lindsay Clancy case, including the arguments surrounding her trial, the overwhelming cultural response that has followed, and the disturbing reality of culture martyring a murderer. While Christians are called to show mercy, we are also called to uphold truth, justice, and the value of every human life. We discuss why the public reaction to this case should concern believers, how emotions can shape our moral judgment, and what a biblical response looks like when tragedy, mental illness, and accountability collide.

Rest, By Force or By Choice: Burnout, Self-Care, and Sustainable Practice for Therapists - An Interview with Cecily Moore, PhD Dr. Cecily Moore on burnout, rest as a clinical intervention, and unlearning the Strong Black Woman Narrative. Curt and Katie talk with Dr. Cecily Moore, a licensed therapist, counselor educator, and clinical supervisor, about why the expectation of endless strength and infinite patience is an unsustainable ask for therapists and other helping professionals. As clinicians carry collective grief and moral exhaustion alongside their clients, Dr. Moore reframes what burnout is actually asking of us. At the center of the conversation is a simple, uncomfortable idea: your body is designed to protect you, so you will stop either by force or by choice. Dr. Moore makes the case for rest as a clinical intervention rather than a reward, unpacks how self-care has been co-opted into something you buy instead of something that restores you, and explains why advocacy that runs on depletion is a ticking time bomb. Real self-care, she argues, is honest about limits, boundaries, and capacity. From there the discussion turns practical. Dr. Moore shares how deeper values work (asking where a value came from and how it was modeled) opens the door to change, how her "BS Job" checklist gives clinicians a concrete mirror for what is draining them, and why systems will not shift until the people inside them do. She also connects this to her research on unlearning the Strong Black Woman Narrative and the survival-based beliefs about strength, productivity, and worth that keep so many helpers over-functioning. This is a grounded, hopeful conversation for any therapist trying to build a sustainable career without abandoning the work they care about. In this episode, we discuss: - Why endless strength and infinite patience are an unsustainable ask for helping professionals - How to tell rest as a clinical intervention apart from self-care that has been co-opted - Why your body will make you stop, by force or by choice - How to size your advocacy to your actual capacity so it does not deplete you - What deeper values work looks like, and why it drives real change - Why unlearning survival-based beliefs about strength and worth makes practice more sustainable Timestamps: - 01:20 - Who Dr. Moore is and what she puts into the world - 02:49 - What therapists get wrong about endless strength and infinite patience - 04:17 - Collective trauma and watching the world change in real time - 06:37 - Moral injury, privilege, and truth-telling across lived experience - 10:29 - How self-care got co-opted, and why advocacy runs on your well-being - 13:07 - Why rest feels so scary - 15:00 - Reframing self-care as self-maintenance - 18:58 - Over-functioning students and learning to be human - 22:49 - Insight versus implementation, and the systemic barriers - 24:15 - Why systems can't shift until the people do - 28:13 - Sustainable choices, by force or by choice - 29:16 - Values work and the "BS Job" checklist - 31:24 - The Strong Black Woman Narrative and questioning conditioning - 35:28 - Where to find Dr. Moore Guest Bio: Dr. Cecily Moore is a licensed therapist, counselor educator, researcher, and clinical supervisor with a PhD in Counselor Education and Supervision. She is the founder of Dr. Cecily Moore & Associates and the creator of the Reappropriate, Redefine, Recover framework, which helps Black women unlearn the Strong Black Woman Narrative and the survival-based beliefs around strength, productivity, and worth that fuel burnout. Her work blends trauma-informed care, nervous system regulation, and culturally responsive practice, and reframes rest as a clinical intervention, not a reward. Learn more at drcecilymoore.com.

Mehrgewichtige Personen gelten vielen als unbeherrscht, faul oder sogar dumm. Dabei ist das Körpergewicht weniger einfacher zu beeinflussen als viele denken und das moralische Urteil deshalb fehl am Platz. Mit dem Aufkommen von Medikamenten wie Ozempic und Wegovy könnte das Körpergewicht aber mehr und mehr zu einer Entscheidung werden, selbst für Diätresistente. Kate Manne, Philosophieprofessorin an der Cornell University in den USA, sieht diese Entwicklung kritisch: Zu gross sei die Gefahr, dass ein sozialer Druck entstehe, von den Medikamenten Gebrauch zu machen. Starkes Übergewicht könne zwar gesundheitliche Folgen haben, doch die Abwertung dicker Körper weist die Philosophin als eigenständiges Unrecht aus, das nicht mit einer Spritze oder Pille, sondern mit dem Kampf gegen die Unterdrückung dicker Menschen angegangen werden müsse. Ausgehend von eigener Erfahrung analysiert sie in ihrem Buch «Grösse zeigen» die strukturelle Diskriminierung in Schule, Job und Medizin – und plädiert für «Body Reflexivity»: den eigenen Körper nicht als Objekt fremder Moralstandards zu begreifen.

Rob and Brittany welcome VFW National Legislative Service Director Kristina Keenan, Deputy Director of Grassroots Advocacy Gabby Kubinyi, and National Veterans Service Deputy Director Chris Macinkowicz for a wide-ranging discussion on veterans' benefits, advocacy, and the choices lawmakers make that affect those who served. The team provides an update on the Take Care of America's Veterans Act and the VFW's continued opposition to its proposed funding mechanism. With more than 80,000 grassroots messages sent to Congress, they explain why lawmakers have other options for advancing important veterans legislation without reducing future disability benefits. The conversation also challenges misconceptions surrounding VA disability compensation, fraud, tinnitus and sleep apnea, while emphasizing that earned benefits are part of the commitment made to those who serve. The discussion turns to today's service members and the realities of prolonged deployments, particularly for sailors spending months aboard ships away from their families. Chris also recaps the National Association of State Directors of Veterans Affairs conference and how the VFW is finding new ways to reach veterans through remote claims assistance, Combat Tested Gaming and community connections. Gabby highlights opportunities available through the VFW-SVA Legislative Fellowship, while Kristina previews the Fall Legislative Conference and the organization's push to finish the congressional session strong. The group also underscores the importance of informed, nonpartisan civic engagement and holding elected officials accountable on veterans' issues. In the Still Serving Spotlight, Rob and Brittany welcome some of the team behind the upcoming feature film CIVILIAN: writer and director John J. Budion, producer Marissa Vitale, and Air Force Special Warfare veteran Anthony Budion. Inspired in part by Anthony's experiences, the film follows a veteran struggling to adapt to civilian life and explores PTSD, alcohol use, loss of purpose, moral injury, family reintegration and the difficulty of leaving behind the structure and identity of military service. Anthony shares the story of his own transition from the Air Force to the NYPD and FDNY and eventually into life outside a uniform, while John discusses drawing from his brother's experiences to create an authentic veteran character rather than relying on familiar Hollywood stereotypes.

Mateo Latosa returns to Derry & Toms to follow up on our episode on The Powysverse of Space 1999 by digging into one of the original 1970s novelisations, The Space Guardians by prolific British SF author (and early New Worlds contributor) Brian Ball. We take a look at the episodes it adapted, and the work Mateo and his colleagues undertook alongside Brian to revise it and bring it into line with their rationalised Space 1999 continuity. Existential horror! Moral conundrums!! Alan's hairy chest!!! LOVEJOY!!!! If you fancy testing your wrist power, you can still grab a copy of the Space 1999 Year One omnibus here.

What if the thing you're most ashamed of isn't proof that you're a bad person…but proof that you care deeply about being a good one? If there's something you did (or didn't do) that you still replay in your mind years later, I want you to hear this: There may be a name for what you're carrying. Moral injury. And no, healing it does not mean pretending it was okay. In this episode, I'm talking with Dr. Jaimie Lusk, a board-certified psychologist, Marine Corps veteran, longtime VA clinician, and leading expert on moral injury. Together, we unpack why some experiences turn into crushing guilt and shame, and how to finally start loosening their grip. You'll learn: Why guilt that won't go away may actually be evidence of your conscience What moral injury is and why it can leave you feeling fundamentally “bad” The “million-dollar question” that can completely change how you see what happened How to separate your actual responsibility from the responsibility you've taken on What to say when someone you love is withdrawing under the weight of shame Why healing isn't about erasing the past, but about deciding what you do with it now How to find the right kind of professional help for moral injury You cannot go back and change what happened. But you do not have to spend the rest of your life punishing yourself for it.

Margaret spent 35 years in Moral Re-Armament, a movement that intended to bring morality back to a world wracked with war. Whether they succeeded is debatable, as is the line between a movement and a cult. Margaret thinks they may have straddled that line pretty closely at times. The specifics of growing up in MRA - as well as her life after - are in her book, A Spectacular Inheritance.For more information, visit Margaret's website at https://margareteastmansmith.com/.This guest was booked using PodMatch! Interested in being a guest on the show? Reach out to us at https://www.podmatch.com/member/tombarnardpodcast.

I've known Jon Weece for a long time, and every time I get around him, I walk away with something I need to think about.   Jon and I sat down and talked about a little bit of everything, from what 26 years of ministry has taught him, to staying humble and kind, dealing with criticism without becoming bitter, and remembering that our identity is rooted in who we are, not what we do.   We also talked about something I think a lot of men struggle with: friendship. How do you make good friends as an adult? How do you find people who will encourage you, challenge you, and help you become more like Jesus?   Jon has a ton of wisdom, but what I loved most about this conversation is how honest and practical it was. This one is full of things I think all of us can take with us into whatever season of life we're in.   boonebrothers.org   Thanks to our amazing partners on this episode:    First Interstate Bank has a mission to help people and their money work better together.

Suffering Is Collective, and So Is Healing: Belonging, Ritual, and Meaning in Uncertain Times - An Interview with Suzan Song, MD Suzan Song, MD, psychiatrist and medical anthropologist, on why suffering is collective and healing comes through belonging, ritual, and meaning. Curt and Katie talk with Suzan Song, MD about why the exhaustion so many therapists and clients are carrying right now is not only personal. Drawing on more than two decades of global mental health work with survivors of war, trafficking, and mass violence, Suzan makes the case that distress is often collective, shaped by culture and unstable systems, and that healing happens through belonging, narrative, ritual, meaning, and agency, not symptom elimination alone. She names what American mental health training often misses when it treats suffering as something bounded inside a single person, and offers concrete, low-cost rituals therapists can use to stay grounded. The conversation moves from collective grief and moral exhaustion to the difference between functioning and healing, and to grounding in relationship: who you matter to, and who matters to you. This is a grounding conversation for therapists feeling stretched by the current moment, and for anyone drawn to a global mental health lens on collective trauma, ritual, and sustainable healing. In this episode, we discuss: - Why the distress therapists and clients carry right now is collective, not only individual - What American mental health training misses when it locates suffering inside a bounded self - How belonging, narrative, ritual, and meaning function as healing - Why functioning is not the same as healing - Grounding in relationship as an alternative to purely individual nervous-system regulation - How small acts of agency protect against demoralization - Low-cost rituals therapists can use to keep moral exhaustion from following them home Timestamps: 01:44 - Who Suzan Song is and what she puts into the world 02:58 - How a medical anthropology lens changes clinical work 05:34 - When the self is collective, not bounded 09:18 - Collective suffering and the loss of agency 12:18 - Moral injury and disengagement in therapists 17:23 - Finding your own rituals as a therapist 24:07 - Grounding in relationship 28:13 - Why functioning is not healing Guest Bio: Suzan Song, MD, MPH, PhD is a child, adolescent, and adult psychiatrist and medical anthropologist, and a professor of psychiatry at George Washington University. She has spent more than two decades advising on mental health and psychosocial support (MHPSS) in humanitarian and conflict-affected settings, and is the author of Why We Suffer and How We Heal (Harmony / Penguin Random House, 2026).

The Moral Math of AI - It's ComplicatedA Silicon-Carbon Collaboration.What does it mean to use a technology that exists inside harmful systems?AI has real costs. Environmental impact. Corporate concentration. Labor concerns. Military applications. Unequal burdens on the Global South. Those harms belong in any serious ethical discussion.But so do the benefits.How should we think about complicity when nearly everything we use connects us to systems that cause harm?Beginning with the surprising human and environmental cost of passenger vehicles, we examine what happens when moral accounting records every harm associated with AI while treating its benefits as irrelevant, privileged, or disposable.The question isn't whether AI causes harm. It does.The harder question is what follows from that fact.Do we abandon technologies connected to harmful systems? Or do we acknowledge our complicity, preserve the benefits that matter, and work to reduce the harm?Both belong on the ledger.⁠⁠Youtube:⁠⁠ ⁠https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCoS6H2R1Or4MtabrkofdOMw⁠⁠ Bluesky: ⁠⁠https://bsky.app/profile/athomeinmyhead.bsky.social⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Paypal: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠http://paypal.me/athomeinmyhead⁠⁠Recommended Music Credit:“Wishful Thinking” – Dan Lebowitz: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCOg3zLw7St5V4N7O8HSoQRA⁠⁠Open⁠SOURCEShttps://www.who.int/health-topics/road-safety#tab=tab_1https://www.epa.gov/greenvehicles/greenhouse-gas-emissions-typical-passenger-vehiclehttps://www.pd.com.au/blogs/how-many-cars-in-the-world/https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20241002497960/en/FIDO-AI-Raises-Series-B-Investment-to-Scale-Its-Innovative-Water-Management-Technologyhttps://dww.show/how-to-save-time-money-and-water-thanks-to-92-accurate-leak-detection/https://trellis.net/article/ai-cut-billions-tons-carbon-food-power-mobility/https://youtu.be/JRcAegChriY?si=ZYLjucNEA7gRIkkvhttps://allenai.org/climate-modelinghttps://today.ucsd.edu/story/accelerating-climate-modeling-with-generative-aihttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yqZ59tbNoaI&t=6https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EotzDIS8910&t=2287https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DNQY0Bsr6B4&t=150https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AIgTy033-A4&t=509https://www.linkedin.com/posts/matiassigal_big-tech-is-becoming-energy-companies-cnbc-share-7429814500205420544-gFGk/https://youtu.be/3mIbaJsH-w4?si=xkMRdExGn2oRZcaAhttps://www.researchgate.net/institution/An-Najah-National-Universityhttps://www.temjournal.com/content/141/TEMJournalFebruary2025_789_804.pdfhttps://ainowinstitute.org/publications/naomi-klein-climatehttps://www.manchester.ac.uk/about/news/irans-ai-memes/https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i5Q_v370OJghttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LXGRw25ilH4https://www.rferl.org/a/lego-hip-hop-deepfakes-iran-ai-propaganda/33756098.htmlhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sWHObU2tiK4https://www.facebook.com/deutschewellenews/videos/dozens-of-lego-themed-ai-videos-have-flooded-social-media-pushing-pro-iranian-me/979705308336515/https://www.facebook.com/AlAraby.en/videos/the-explosive-mediaa-teams-iran-lego-videos-go-beyond-ordinary-propaganda-theyve/964486416372351/https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A6TSBjngcOkhttps://time.com/article/2026/04/02/when-virality-is-the-message-the-new-age-of-ai-propaganda/https://www.youtube.com/shorts/Tkn6PBMwz2I?vl=enhttps://www.businessinsider.com/ai-film-movie-ethics-conflict-2025-5https://www.yesmagazine.org/social-justice/2013/03/06/dancing-the-world-into-being-a-conversation-with-idle-no-more-leanne-simpsonhttps://www.pixxel.space/news/pixxel-to-launch-indias-first-orbital-data-centre-satellite-powered-by-sarvamhttps://datacenters.economictimes.indiatimes.com/news/ai-compute-infrastructure/india-eyes-orbital-datacenters-for-ai-data-sovereignty/130709634https://spacenews.com/pixxel-pushes-into-orbital-data-centers-for-faster-geospatial-intelligence/A Silicon-Carbon Collaboration.

In this episode Work Of Wrestling host Tim Kail dives back into a discussion about morality in professional wrestling.  He begins by cautioning listeners and readers from getting caught in the web of analysts who "build monuments to their own intelligence". Then he outlines his basic moral philosophy as good and evil existing as poles on a spectrum. He examines why morally grey characters and even villians are en vogue, why there's still value in characters like John Cena, and ultimately what he hopes to give his readers and listeners.

I'm welcoming back filmmaker Simon Esler, who first appeared on this podcast back on episode 54 to discuss his documentary Cut: Daughters of the West. This time, we're diving into his new docuseries You Are Here, which explores the landscape of cognitive warfare—the idea that human cognition itself has become the most contested territory in modern conflict.We start with the chilling case of Barry Neufeld, a Canadian school board trustee who was fined $750,000 for refusing to believe that children can be born trapped in the wrong body—what the judge's ruling called "existential denialism." From there, we explore how Canada's human rights laws and conversion therapy legislation have embedded gender identity ideology into the legal framework, silencing detransitioners and punishing dissenters. Simon and I discuss how our minds are conditioned by narratives we've never examined, how meta-perceptions warp our view of political opponents, and what Iain McGilchrist's work on brain hemispheres reveals about Western cognitive vulnerability. We also get into the concept of cognitive entrenchment, moral inversion, and the historical parallels between modern ideological capture and ancient child sacrifice in Carthage. Simon shares what's next for his series and talks about the Reclaiming Birth Conference, where he's working to empower families to take back sovereignty over pregnancy and birth.Books mentioned in this episode:The Screwtape Letters by C.S. LewisRange: Why Generalists Triumph in a Specialized World by David EpsteinThe Master and His Emissary: The Divided Brain and the Making of the Western World by Iain McGilchristSimon Esler is a committed defender of families & the lost art of free thought. A winding career path as an actor, theatre maker, ordained minister and mindfulness entrepreneur lead him to becoming a professional content creator & independent filmmaker. His latest docuseries, You Are Here - Reconnaissance for the War on Perception, is now streaming at dauntlessdialogue.com.

Bunnie and the gang are back with Part 2 of Ask, Tell, Confess: Vacation Edition — and somehow, y'all managed to make these stories even wilder than last week.From a construction work trip involving a $1,000 bet and some very questionable decisions, to Dempsey's disastrous jet ski instructor situationship in the Keys, we're getting into the vacation memories that should've stayed on vacation.Bunnie and the gang also relive their chaotic Rome trip, Nanny's cigar-on-the-beach fail, matching tattoos, and why everyone thinks they're out doing hoe shit when they're really just playing games and making cookie balls.Then the confessions completely go off the rails with cheating exes, family vacations gone horribly wrong, accidental cousin kisses, and hotel room behavior nobody asked to witness. Plus, the worst psychic reading ever, why Four Loko is officially off-limits, and way too much oversharing.Moral of the story: some vacation memories should've stayed on vacation — but thank God y'all told us anyway.Watch Full Episodes & More: YouTube

Welcome to Day 2927 of Wisdom-Trek. Thank you for joining me. This is Guthrie Chamberlain, Your Guide to Wisdom. Day 2927 – Wisdom Nuggets – Proverbs 1:8-19 Daily Wisdom Wisdom-Trek Podcast Script - Day 2927 Welcome to Wisdom-Trek with Gramps! I am Guthrie Chamberlain, and we are on Day 2927 of our Trek. The Purpose of Wisdom-Trek is to create a legacy of wisdom, to seek out discernment and insights, and to boldly grow where few have chosen to grow before. The title for today's Wisdom-Trek is: The Crown of Instruction and the Trap of Ill-Gotten Gain On our previous episode, on Day Two Thousand Nine Hundred Twenty-Five, we stepped over the threshold into the Book of Proverbs, establishing the fundamental cornerstone of all true knowledge: the reverent fear of the Lord. We discovered that Solomon wrote this royal manual to train leaders, giving us applied skill—chokmah—to navigate life's complex trails. Today, as we advance onto Day Two Thousand Nine Hundred Twenty-Seven of our trek, we move from the grand royal courtroom right into the intimate setting of the home. Here, the very first lesson in Solomon's curriculum is delivered not by a distant monarch, but by loving parents. Having spent over fifty years focusing on and studying Biblical wisdom, and having accumulated seventy years of life experiences—seeing families thrive and seeing lives unravel—I can assure you that the foundational lessons learned at home determine the trajectory of your entire life. Let us open our ears to the tender, yet urgent counsel found in Proverbs chapter one, verse eight, and verse nine. My child, listen when your father corrects you. Don't neglect your mother's instruction. What you learn from them will crown you with grace and be a chain of honor around your neck. In these two verses, Solomon frames true education as a sacred, generational partnership between father and mother. Notice the language he uses: "listen when your father corrects you" and "don't neglect your mother's instruction." In the ancient Near Eastern world, and specifically within the Ancient Israelite divine-council worldview, the family was not merely a social convenience; it was designed as the primary earthly sanctuary! Yahweh established the family unit as the foundational training ground where young image-bearers learn covenant loyalty, moral discipline, and respect for authority. When parents align their hearts with the Creator, their home becomes an earthly reflection of heaven's council, transmitting life-giving wisdom to the next generation. Solomon promises that when a child embraces this home-grown wisdom, it becomes like a garland or a crown of grace upon their head, and a chain of honor around their neck! In ancient times, royal jewels and golden chains were worn by dignitaries to signal authority, dignity, and high status. Solomon is making a stunning point: true honor is not bought with money or seized through raw ambition; it is cultivated through humble, obedient listening to wise instruction in the home. Over my seventy years on this earth, I have seen this proven time and time again—the young men and women who honor the disciplined wisdom of their upbringing walk through life with an undeniable, graceful dignity that no earthly wealth can ever purchase. Yet, as soon as a young person steps outside the protective doorway of the family home, another voice begins to shout from the dark alleys of the world. Solomon immediately prepares his student for the intense spiritual and cultural warfare awaiting them in the public square, grouping together the ominous warning found in Proverbs chapter one, verses ten, eleven, twelve, thirteen, and fourteen. My child, if sinners entice you, turn your back on them! They may say, “Come and join us. Let's hide and kill someone! Just for fun, let's ambush the innocent! Let's swallow them alive, like the grave; let's swallow them whole, like those who go down to the pit of death. Think of the great things we'll get! We'll fill our houses with all the plunder. Come, throw in your lot with us; we'll all share one purse.” Look at the terrifying, predatory nature of this temptation! Solomon doesn't beat around the bush; he exposes the raw, ugly anatomy of peer pressure and wicked enticement. These enticers—these "sinners"—do not offer honest labor or disciplined craft; they promise instant wealth through violence, ambush, and exploitation. Notice the graphic, horrific imagery they use: "Let's swallow them alive, like the grave; let's swallow them whole, like those who go down to the pit of death." In the ancient worldview, "the grave"—Sheol—and "the pit" represented the chaotic, ravenous underworld, ruled by dark, rebellious spiritual powers that craved destruction, bloodshed, and disorder. When men gather to prey upon the innocent, they are literally acting as earthly agents of those dark, chaotic principalities! They lure the naive youth with two powerful, intoxicating lies: solidarity and instant riches. They cry, "Throw in your lot with us; we'll all share one purse!" Over my fifty years of studying wisdom and observing human nature across seven decades of living, I have watched countless young people fall into this exact trap. The temptation to belong to a powerful group, combined with the lure of effortless, shortcut wealth, has destroyed more lives, ruined more legacies, and shattered more families than almost anything else on the trail. The gang, the predatory business scheme, the corrupt political circle—they all use the same siren song. But Solomon gives the simplest, most direct command possible in verse ten: "If sinners entice you, turn your back on them!" Don't negotiate; don't debate; don't linger in their presence—turn around and walk away! Having exposed the seductive rhetoric of the violent gang, Solomon now pulls back the curtain to reveal the inescapable, self-destructive reality of their chosen path, linking together the contiguous thoughts in Proverbs chapter one, verses fifteen, sixteen, seventeen, eighteen, and nineteen. My child, do not go along with them, do not set foot on their path; for their feet rush into evil, they are swift to shed blood. How useless to spread a net where every bird can see it! These men lie in wait for their own blood; they ambush only themselves! Such are the paths of all who go after ill-gotten gain; it takes away the life of those who get it. Solomon delivers a masterclass in spiritual cause-and-effect! He warns, "Do not set foot on their path." In Hebrew thought, life is pictured as a path or a journey—a trek! Every single decision you make takes you one step further down a specific trail. Once you take that first step onto the path of compromise, your momentum accelerates; "their feet rush into evil, they are swift to shed blood." Moral decline is rarely a sudden cliff; it is a steep, slippery slope that drags you faster than you ever intended to go. Then, Solomon uses a brilliant, parabolic illustration from nature: "How useless to spread a net where every bird can see it!" Even a simple bird has enough sense to fly away if it sees a hunter spreading a net in plain sight. But these greedy, violent men are actually stupider than birds! Why? Because in their blind, delusional rush for plunder, they fail to see that the net they are spreading is going to catch them! Solomon reveals a profound cosmic truth: "These men lie in wait for their own blood; they ambush only themselves!" In Yahweh's universe, moral evil contains the seeds of its own destruction. The divine order is structured in such a way that those who dig a pit for the innocent end up falling directly into it. Solomon summarizes this universal law of wisdom in verse nineteen: "Such are the paths of all who go after ill-gotten gain; it takes away the life of those who get it." The Hebrew word for ill-gotten gain is betza—wealth extracted through extortion, violence, dishonesty, or greedy shortcuts. In my seventy years of life, I have seen many people acquire betza. They thought they were getting rich, but in reality, that dishonest wealth became a spiritual cancer that consumed their peace, destroyed their health, fractured their homes, and ultimately took away their very life. Ill-gotten gain promises freedom, but it delivers a coffin. As we reflect on these powerful twelve verses of Proverbs chapter one, the choice presented to us on life's trek could not be clearer. We can choose the quiet, graceful crown of parental instruction, rooted in the fear of the Lord; or we can choose the fast, treacherous path of greedy shortcuts that leads straight into a trap of our own making. True legacy is never built on ill-gotten gain; it is built step-by-step through humble discipline, integrity, and covenant loyalty to the...

Terrion Arnold's visit with the Giants puts an uncomfortable spotlight on their biggest concern: the secondary. The former first-round pick comes with serious legal questions and an uneven NFL track record, but the Giants' willingness to bring him in shows just how unsettled their cornerback room remains. There's real concern that one vulnerable position group could undermine all the optimism surrounding the team.
