Meet my friends, Clay Travis and Buck Sexton! If you love Verdict, the Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show might also be in your audio wheelhouse. Politics, news analysis, and some pop culture and comedy thrown in too. Here’s a sample episode recapping four Tuesday takeaways. Give the guys a listen and then follow and subscribe wherever you get your podcasts. Deep State Weaponization Broadcasting live from Washington, D.C., Buck Sexton covers the latest developments in the Trump administration’s showdown with Democrat-run cities, focusing on Chicago and Portland. The discussion kicks off with explosive revelations about FBI surveillance of Republican Senators, including Lindsey Graham, Josh Hawley, and Ron Johnson, as part of the controversial “Arctic Frost” operation. Buck highlights Attorney General Pam Bondi’s testimony before the Senate Judiciary Committee, exposing the weaponization of the FBI and DOJ and the urgent need for reform under Director Patel. Who is Leading the Democrats? Buck recaps President Trump’s Oval Office remarks, where Trump blasts Democrats for having “no leadership and no policy,” calling out figures like Chuck Schumer, Nancy Pelosi, and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. Buck underscores Trump’s point, arguing that Democrats lack a clear leader for the first time in decades, with contenders like Gavin Newsom and J.B. Pritzker jockeying for influence while the party drifts toward radicalism. Remembering Israel's 9/11 Karol Markowitz, host of The Karol Markowicz Show, reflecting on the two-year anniversary of the October 7 Hamas terrorist attack on Israel. Karol shares her perspective on the enduring trauma for Jews worldwide, the resilience of Israelis, and the disturbing rise of antisemitism in Western societies. The discussion dismantles false narratives of “genocide” against Palestinians, highlighting how media outlets like The New York Times manipulate imagery to push propaganda. Buck and Karol underscore President Trump’s unwavering support for Israel, his clarity on Middle East policy, and the broader civilizational stakes tied to unchecked immigration and radical ideology. The conversation shifts to emerging hostility toward Israel from some voices on the right, with Karol warning against conspiracy theories and emphasizing that polls still show overwhelming conservative support for Israel. She frames antisemitism as a “mind virus” that can consume individuals and societies, urging vigilance against its spread. Buck reinforces the historical context of violent indoctrination in Gaza and calls for moral clarity in U.S. foreign policy. Living with Autism In a compelling second half, Buck welcomes Leland Vittert, NewsNation host and author of Born Lucky: A Dedicated Father, a Grateful Son, and My Journey with Autism. Leland shares his deeply personal story of overcoming severe autism through his father’s relentless commitment to adaptation and resilience. The discussion explores the flaws in expert-driven approaches that encourage meeting children “where they are” instead of pushing them to thrive. Leland details practical strategies his father used—like instilling discipline, teaching social skills, and building character—that transformed his life. Buck relates with his own childhood struggle with a speech impediment, reinforcing the theme that parental involvement and perseverance can change destinies. The segment also tackles the surge in autism diagnoses, with Leland calling it “the scientific question of our time” and criticizing partisan attacks on efforts to find answers. His book offers hope and actionable guidance for parents navigating challenges from autism to ADHD and beyond.

What happens when a parent refuses to let a diagnosis define their child?

Leland Vittert is one of America's most recognizable television correspondents. You'll know his face from years of frontline reporting in places like Egypt, Libya, Israel, and Ukraine.  You may have followed his tumultuous exit from Fox News in 2021, after clashing with the network over its coverage of Donald Trump—and then his redemption arc, becoming the host of On Balance and the chief Washington anchor at NewsNation.  But what you might not know is that Leland is autistic. He just wrote a book about it, called Born Lucky: A Dedicated Father, a Grateful Son, and My Journey with Autism. In it, Leland explains that he didn't talk until age 3, was born severely cross-eyed, and struggled with basic concepts like eye contact, humor, conversation cues, and social rules. Middle school and high school were nothing short of hell.  So how did the kid we just described go from, as he says, “socially lost” to one of America's most recognizable and charismatic voices? Training. Relentless, nonstop work. His father knew the world wouldn't change for Leland—Leland would have to change for the world. It is a moving memoir about how Leland—and most notably, his father—worked to “beat” his autism. You'll have to read it to understand how. Leland was diagnosed about 40 years ago. Since then, conversation has shifted dramatically—and so have rates of diagnoses. In the 1980s, about one in 1,000 American children were diagnosed with autism. Today, it's one in 31. The questions of what causes autism and how we treat it have become so politicized that the conversation has left people either resentful, anxious, confused, or scared. And most critically, still without answers.  Born Lucky is landing at an especially interesting moment given that the Trump administration has put the topic of autism at center stage. Just last week, Trump held a press conference where he alleged that there was a link between the active ingredient in Tylenol and autism, and told mothers not to take the pain reliever and fever reducer and instead “tough it out.”  That's among the many things Leland and I talk about in this fascinating conversation.  Header 6: The Free Press earns a commission from any purchases made through all book links in this article.

In this special episode, I share my journey of creating the Intuitive Human Design Teacher Training & Certification and sit down with Dr. Marie Weitbrecht, one of my current certification students, to discuss her experience and transformation.My Journey as a Teacher:I've always been a natural teacher - even in school, I helped other kids with math and loved it. But I didn't know what I was here to teach until human design came into my life about five years ago. When I discovered it, something clicked - it felt like remembering rather than learning something new.What I quickly realized was that the way I understood and shared human design was vastly different from traditional teachings. Human design gave me permission to do things my own way, which was exactly what I'd been frustrated about in the entrepreneurial space - constantly trying to replicate other people's formulas and feeling like a failure when they didn't work.Why This Certification Exists:I noticed that human design was often being taught in ways that actually defeated its purpose - people were outsourcing their authority to the system rather than learning to trust themselves. I wanted to teach it in an expansive, empowering way that helps people tune into their own inner authority.The certification evolved further when I discovered true sidereal astrology (thanks to Marie bringing it to my attention!). Now the program offers both perspectives - tropical and true sidereal - so students can explore what resonates most authentically with them.Conversation with Dr. Marie Weitbrecht:Marie shares her experience taking the certification, including:Why she joined after already completing my previous certificationWhat makes this program unique - the active community and high-level discussionsHer transformation from constant stress to learning to decondition from societal pressureHow her reading style has evolved from "cookie cutter" explanations to intuitive, targeted sessionsWhy she feels confident using human design with her clientsKey Insights from Marie:"I've never seen such an active community in any course... it seems like everyone is on a pulse that is important, and that's very special.""I used to operate from stress maybe 80% of the time. Now I'm really deconditioning around pressure from outside, from society, from what I think other people want from me.""People actually just want help in what's bothering them - they don't need to understand every nitty-gritty detail of their chart."The Invitation:The next cohort of the Intuitive Human Design Teacher Training & Certification begins at the end of October 2025. This is a nine-month transformative journey (like birthing a baby!) where you'll go through your own deconditioning while learning to share human design in your unique, intuitive way.This isn't about memorizing information or giving cookie-cutter readings - it's about deepening your relationship with yourself so you can authentically guide others.If you feel a light, expansive sensation in your body right now, that's your invitation to explore this journey.

This captivating episode features Amanda Carrasco, also known as Amanda The Brave One, author of Becoming the Brave One; My Journey to Justice. Amanda's story is one of unimaginable trauma and extraordinary resilience. She endured horrific sexual assaults and, while out of her home, suffered the devastating loss of her immediate family at the hands of another family member. Yet rather than allowing her trauma to define her, Amanda transformed her experiences into a platform for healing, education, and advocacy—helping survivors and professionals alike understand the realities of trauma and the critical importance of being seen, heard, and believed. In this episode, Amanda shares her journey with raw honesty and fearless transparency. She talks about the challenges of navigating the aftermath of assault, the systemic failures survivors often face, and the personal strength required to reclaim one's life. Her story is a powerful reminder that even in the darkest circumstances, courage and resilience can create change—not only in one's own life, but in the lives of others. This is an episode that will challenge, inspire, and leave listeners reflecting on how they can better support survivors in their communities. Get her book wherever you buy your books.

Have you ever wondered if the Bible was actually written to you—or just for you? In this episode of Seek Go Create, host Tim Winders unpacks why understanding the original audience and first-century context of the New Testament is crucial for truly grasping its message. Dive into the cultural backdrop, real-life tensions, and urgent challenges faced by early believers, and discover how this perspective can transform your faith and bring scripture to life in powerful new ways. If you've ever felt confused or disconnected from what you read in the Bible, this eye-opening episode is one you don't want to miss."If we ignore who the Bible was originally written to, we risk twisting what it actually means." - Tim Winders Access all show and episode resources HEREReasons To Listen:Unlock the Bible's Original Context: Discover why understanding who the Bible was originally written to in the first century completely changes its meaning—and how misreading this can lead to distorted theology.Expose Common Misinterpretations: Learn how applying ancient scriptures directly to modern life—especially politics and culture—can result in confusion, fear, and even push people away from the message of Jesus.Rediscover the Kingdom of God: Find out why the “Kingdom of God”—mentioned over a hundred times in the New Testament—is not a side topic, but the central theme often missed in Christian teaching today.Key Lessons:Understanding Biblical Context Is Essential - The Bible was written for us, but not to us. It's crucial to recognize that the original audience lived in a different time, place, and culture. When we ignore that, we risk misinterpreting or misapplying Scripture.Audience Matters More Than You Think - Every book, letter, and passage had a specific audience facing real issues of their day. Learning who these people were and what they were experiencing helps us better understand the true message behind the text.Most New Testament Writings Happened Within a Narrow Timeline - The bulk of the New Testament was written between AD 45 and AD 70, a period of massive change and tension for the early followers of Jesus—especially as the Old Covenant faded and the New Covenant took hold.Misapplying Scripture Causes Confusion and Harm - Trying to directly apply first-century issues or warnings to modern politics or culture leads to shallow, sometimes damaging theology. Instead, we should seek to understand principles that transcend time, not force-fit ancient texts into today's headlines.The Kingdom of God Is the Core Message - The Kingdom isn't a side topic—it's central to Jesus' teachings and to the mission of the early church. Recognizing this helps us connect all the threads of the New Testament in a powerful, life-giving way.Episode Highlights:00:00 Introduction: Rethinking the Bible's Audience00:59 The Problem with Modern Bible Interpretation02:13 Understanding the First Century Context03:12 My Journey with Biblical Context07:30 The Importance of Audience in Interpretation09:10 Misapplications and Their Consequences13:53 The Timeline of the New Testament17:47 The Significance of AD 7025:08 The Kingdom of God: The Core MessageResources for Leaders from Tim Winders & SGC:

Are you tired of performing, striving, and still feeling empty?In this video, I share my personal journey from burnout and spiritual exhaustion to learning how to truly abide in Christ—and what real, lasting fruit looks like when it's born from presence, not pressure.Jesus didn't call us to hustle harder. He called us to abide.Here's how to stop taping fake fruit to a dead tree and start living a life rooted in the Vine.

The journey from NFL superstar to Hollywood actor isn't one many can successfully navigate, but Vernon Davis makes it look effortless. This raw conversation with the Super Bowl champion reveals the mindset that's enabled him to excel across multiple fields. "When I understood how important it was to be selfless and do things for the sake of the team, then I became a better not just a better player, but a better person overall because that shifted over to life," Vernon shares early in our discussion. This philosophy has guided his remarkable transformation from elite tight end to accomplished actor with over 30 credits to his name. What separates Vernon from others attempting similar career pivots is his unwavering commitment to mastery. He describes sneaking away from football practice to attend acting classes at the same theater where Danny Glover trained. Now, five years into working with a dedicated acting coach twice weekly, he's seeing the results of that consistency: "If I'm where I'm at right now, imagine what I'm gonna be at in 10 years." This echoes his football approach, where he was famously the last player off the practice field for 14 straight seasons. Perhaps most valuable is Vernon's wisdom about evaluating opportunities. Rather than focusing on products or concepts, he examines the people involved: "People can make or break you. I don't look at the business or the product—I look at the people who I'm working with." This insight saved him countless headaches, as demonstrated by his grandmother's remarkable ability to spot a dishonest financial advisor who later stole $500,000 from him. Throughout our conversation, Vernon's legacy emerges clearly—a man determined to lead by example in everything he does. Whether catching game-winning touchdowns, starring alongside Morgan Freeman, or building businesses, he approaches each endeavor with the same dedication to excellence.

Welcome back to the WellFuel Podcast with your host, Isabel Smith!We're excited to bring you a truly special episode this week - one that's been long-awaited by our community. Isabel is opening up about her personal journey with Long COVID, Lyme, and co-infections, and the unconventional path she took to find relief.After her own battle with COVID-19 and a resurgence of chronic symptoms, Isabel teamed up with a specialist to explore a unique approach: using a nicotine patch to help reduce viral loads and free up ACE2 receptors. Whether you or someone you love is dealing with Long COVID, chronic illness, or just curious about innovative healing protocols, this episode is packed with valuable insights and real-life experience.Isabel's story is raw, honest, and full of hope. We hope it inspires you to keep searching for answers and reminds you that you're not alone in your healing journey.Tune in now to hear the full episode - and don't forget to share it with anyone who might benefit from Isabel's experience and insights!---------------------------EPISODE HIGHLIGHTS: The backstory of Isabel's struggle with Lyme and Long COVIDWhy she considered the nicotine patch protocol - and how it worksHonest reflections on the symptoms, challenges, and adjustments she faced along the wayThe supplements and strategies that supported her two-month journeyInsightful commentary on the results she achieved and what this could mean for others facing similar chronic conditions--------------------------CHAPTERS: 00:00 – Welcome to the WellFuel Podcast00:24 – My Journey with Lyme and Long COVID01:20 – The Nicotine Patch Protocol03:40 – Experiencing the Nicotine Patch04:53 – Symptom Log and Supplementation06:27 – Challenges and Adjustments10:06 – Final Thoughts and Future Plans-----------------------------HELPFUL DEFINITIONS: ACE2 Receptors: ACE2 is a protein on the surface of many cell types. It is an enzyme that generates small proteins – by cutting up the larger protein angiotensinogen – that then go on to regulate functions in the cell.Using the spike-like protein on its surface, the SARS-CoV-2 virus binds to ACE2 – like a key being inserted into a lock – prior to entry and infection of cells. Hence, ACE2 acts as a cellular doorway – a receptor – for the virus that causes COVID-19.Lumbrokinase: Lumbrokinase is known for its ability to dissolve fibrin, which is a crucial component of blood clots. This ability makes it potentially useful in preventing and treating conditions related to excessive blood clotting. Nattokinase: Nattokinase is an enzyme that's extracted from natto, a traditional Japanese food made from fermented soybeans. Nattokinase is particularly known for its potential effects on blood circulation and blood clots.The Krebs Cycle: The Krebs cycle is used by organisms that generate energy via respiration, either anaerobically or aerobically (organisms that ferment use different pathways).M-Spike Protein: The M-spike, also known as monoclonal protein or paraprotein, is a marker in blood tests that indicates the presence of abnormal plasma cells.HRV: HRV, or Heart Rate Variability, refers to the variation in time between heartbeats. ---------------------LEARN MORE: The WellFuel Podcast explores gut health, detox, hormones, mold, and more—hosted by Isabel Smith, MS, RD, CDN.

What does it look like to take a neuroscience degree far beyond the lab? In this episode, we explore a career path that crosses scientific research, government regulation, and biotech entrepreneurship with Dr. Amanda Wiggins, CEO of The cGP Lab. Amanda began her career investigating neurodegeneration and cortical spreading depression. Over time, her passion for real-world impact led her into public policy—where she helped shape New Zealand's Human Tissue Act and advised on regulations for stem cell research and genetic technologies. Today, she leads a company advancing neuroprotective health supplements based on cyclic Glycine-Proline (cGP), a molecule with growing potential in aging and cognitive health. We talk about: How to navigate transitions between academia, government, and business The challenges of working across disciplines—and how to build confidence in new spaces Lessons learned from leading regulatory change and scaling innovation Amanda's work at The cGP Lab and the science behind cGP's potential in brain health Advice for scientists who want to move into leadership, entrepreneurship, or public engagement This conversation is for anyone considering a non-linear career in neuroscience or wondering how to apply scientific training in new and meaningful ways.

Then, he discovered the works of Dr. Joy Fleming and Rev. Bruce C. E. Fleming. They pointed out words and word patterns that clarified further the meaning of the passages he had misunderstood.Join Bill and Bruce, and co-host Cecile, on this BONUS episode of The Eden Podcast!  "I'm one of your big fans and I recommend Tru316 constantly," says Dr. Bill Rudd. Dr. Rudd is the author of Should Women Be Pastors and Leaders in Church?: My Journey to Discover What the Bible Says About Gender Roles The Tru316 Foundation (www.Tru316.com) is the home of The Eden Podcast with Bruce C.

In today's episode, I take you through the evolution of my coaching methodology, the Anti-Macro Method, and how it's adapted over the years to better serve the needs of my clients—especially as I've grown into a functional health practitioner. From its roots in intuitive eating and the hand portion method to its new focus on gut health, hormone balance, and sustainable habits, the AMM has become a flexible, client-centered approach to nutrition that helps people make empowered food choices without obsessing over calorie or macro tracking.Why I Embraced the Anti-Macro Approach:Starting from my own struggles with restrictive eating and disordered habits, I explain why I walked away from traditional macro tracking and embraced a healthier, more sustainable way of nourishing my body.The Anti-Macro Method: A Blend of Flexibility and Structure:Learn how the Anti-Macro Method uses tools like hand portions, food photos, and intuitive eating to build balanced, nutritious meals without requiring clients to track every calorie or gram. It's about creating long-term habits, not short-term fixes.My Journey into Functional Health:As my clients' needs grew to include gut health and hormone balancing, I sought additional education to better serve them. This led to the evolution of AMM to include more tailored nutritional strategies, including fiber-rich foods and symptom journaling.The Benefits of Food Journaling and Hand Portions:I discuss how food journaling (especially photo food journaling) became an essential tool to better understand clients' nutrition, as opposed to relying solely on hand portion tracking. This method allows for deeper insights and greater client success, especially for those struggling with gut and hormone issues.The Anti-Macro Method Today:With a deeper focus on fiber, hormone health, and practical nutrition solutions, I share how the Anti-Macro Method continues to help clients create lasting results without the pressure of obsessive tracking or perfection.Personalization: The Anti-Macro Method is about giving clients the flexibility to choose a method that works for them—whether that's hand portions, photo food journaling, or intuitive eating.Sustainability: The approach encourages structure and balance without the stress of counting every calorie or macro. It's about long-term progress, not short-term perfection.Empowerment: I emphasize the importance of developing a relationship with food that is based on trust, mindfulness, and self-awareness.CONNECT WITH COACH DIANAIG and TikTok @coachdianaleighEmail: coachdianaleigh@gmail.comExplore 1:1 coaching and other offers: https://www.coachdianaleigh.com/offers

Welcome to this special author spotlight! Today we have Dr. Lynn Carey discussing her powerful memoir 'My Journey to Grace'—a raw, honest account of how losing her father at 12 and suffering through failed spinal surgery led to a spiritual awakening that changed everything.

Let's dive into this transformative conversation.==========================================

Notes from James:I've written 25 books—some huge hits, some total flops—and what I've learned is this: anyone can write a book, but not everyone gives themselves permission to start. This episode is the foundation. I break down the mindset, motivation, and structure you need to go from blank page to published book—even if you've never written a word before.So you want to write a book. Where do you even start? In this kickoff to my new series on writing and publishing a book in just 30 days, I walk you through everything you need to know before you ever touch the keyboard.This episode isn't just for aspiring authors—it's for anyone who's ever wanted to turn an idea into something real, something lasting, and maybe even something that launches a new career. I'll tell you exactly why writing a book is more important (and more achievable) than ever, and how your book can become a business card, a personal legacy, and a gateway to new opportunities—even if you're not a “writer.”I also introduce the one structure that every great story (fiction or nonfiction) follows: the arc of the hero. It's the single most powerful tool for crafting stories that actually move people.This episode is sponsored by BetterHelp.

Why are you? Why now?”Why your first draft should be messy—and why that's a good thingThe biggest myths that stop new writers (and how to ignore them)How the arc of the hero applies to everything—from Star Wars to tweetsTimestamps00:00 Introduction: The Power of Writing a Book00:37 Why Write a Book?01:18 My Journey as an Author03:39 The Importance of Knowing Your 'Why'08:46 Common Myths About Writing15:39 The Arc of the Hero in Storytelling19:35 Star Wars: A Hero's Journey22:17 The Timeless Tale of Moses28:16 Walt Disney's Heroic Arc32:52 The Arc of the Hero in Nonfiction35:25 Romance Novels: Love's Heroic JourneyP.S.
