In this week's episode photographer, filmmaker and artist Roger Ballen takes on our ‘Proust Photo Quiz'… The Proust Questionnaire is a set of questions answered by the French writer Marcel Proust. Proust answered the questionnaire in a confession album, a form of parlour game popular at the end of the 1890s. The album, titled An Album to Record Thoughts, Feelings, etc.was found in 1924 and published in the French literary journal Les Cahiers du Mois. Our ‘Proust Photo Quiz' is an adaption of the original text. Roger Ballen Ballen was born in New York in 1950, but for nearly 40 years he has lived and worked in South Africa. It was his work as a geologist that took him into the countryside with his camera in 1981 to explore the hidden world of small South African towns. At first he explored the empty streets in the glare of the midday sun but, once he made the step of knocking on people's doors, he discovered a world inside these houses which was to have a profound effect on his work. After 1994 he no longer looked to the countryside for his subject matter finding it closer to home in Johannesburg. Over the past thirty-five years his photography has evolved using a simple square format in stark black and white. A style he describes as ‘documentary fiction'. After 2000 the people he first discovered and documented living on the margins of South African society became a cast of actors. Ballen has made a number of short films including the collaborative film I Fink You Freeky in 2012, which has over 125-million hits on YouTube.  He also made an animated film, Theatre of Apparitions, which has been nominated for various awards. In 2017 Thames & Hudson published a volume of his collected photography with extended commentary by Ballen titled Ballenesque Roger Ballen: A Retrospective to accompany an exhibition of his work at Halle Saint Pierre in Paris, which took over the entire space for more than a year. ​In 2020, Hatje Cantz published Roger the Rat in which Ballen creates and documents a part-human, part-rat creature who lives an isolated life outside of mainstream society. Ballen has published over twenty-five books internationally and his works are in more than fifty of the most important international museum collections. He still lives in Johannesburg, South Africa. www.rogerballen.com Dr.Grant Scott After fifteen years art directing photography books and magazines such as Elle and Tatler, Scott began to work as a photographer for a number of advertising and editorial clients in 2000.

Nick Kirby and Greg Kuffner recap another loss for the Cincinnati Reds

“It was always in a weird way, I wouldn’t say triggering, but I just didn’t like it. And then by the end, I really did love it. It just felt really heartwarming when different people in the Process, even still, since we all – a lot of us still keep in touch, and they call me Bubba, it makes me smile.” – Julie Shapiro Hoffman grad, Julie Shapiro, found herself at a crossroads. She knew what she wanted to change in herself. Yet, she also felt unable to make that change. There’s change we can make through our choices, and then there’s change that must come from deeper within. The Hoffman Process works in this deeper place within us through the Cycle of Transformation. This is the place where the “magic” of the Process happens. Julie’s story is one of courage, desire, and willingness. She came to the Process with profound scepticism. But she also came with a willingness to fully enter into the Process to allow change to happen within her, even though she couldn’t understand how it would happen. In moments of silence in nature, time with a Buddha, and places where Julie knew she had to go deeper, the “magic” of transformation happened. She gained new insights and saw a deeply rooted pattern. In one moment that allowed her Process to go deeper, Julie realized she had to use the childhood nickname her father had given her on her name tag rather than her given name. She knew that, even though her nickname, Bubba, triggered her, using it would be important. And it turned out to be. As Julie shares, using Bubba “was the real way to connect with my childhood, connect with my parent relationship, work through some things that I may not have had the opportunity to do before he died, and just really connect with him.“ Connecting with her childhood unlocked something deeper within. Hearing fellow students call her Bubba began to bring her joy. Beautiful, ineffable things can happen when you surrender to the Process, as Julie did. We hope you enjoy this heartfelt conversation with Julie and Sadie. Listen on Apple Podcasts More about Julie Shapiro: Have you ever known exactly what you wanted to change about yourself — but felt unable actually to make the change? It was at that crossroads that Julie Shapiro signed up for the Hoffman Process. At 42, she felt that certain milestones, like marriage and starting a family, were out of reach. A lifelong New Yorker, she'd recently moved to Los Angeles and unexpectedly lost her dad within weeks of moving. A Stanford graduate, she set impossibly high standards for herself, both personally and professionally. Little Bubba Julie had spent years in therapy, taken meditation courses, and tried other modalities to reduce anxiety. She was self-aware and could name her patterns. But awareness alone wasn't moving the needle to evoke the changes she wanted. The Hoffman Process was not something she ever would have considered. She expected it to be “woo woo” and couldn't imagine that a one-week retreat had any long-term benefits. But despite her skepticism, she attended the Process in 2024, hoping it might unlock something within her. The Process did just that. Through the Cycle of Transformation, Julie was able to move beyond her lawyer-trained intellect and tap into her emotional and spiritual selves. She discovered a deeply rooted pattern of living in survival mode — pushing through things that made her unhappy just to achieve the end goal. As the Process week unfolded, she began to believe that a spirit-led life, focused on “being” rather than “having,” was not only possible, but available to her. One year later, in 2025, Julie returned for the Q2 graduate program to deepen her Hoffman toolkit. She is actively reorienting her life around who and what truly light her up — and redefining achievement along the way, from her tangible accomplishments to the person she is becoming. Follow Julie on Instagram. As mentioned in this episode: Hoffman’s Q2 is a three-day program for Process graduates.

The Crossword Hoffman Terminology and Tools: Awareness Hell: In the Hoffman Process, when we're in awareness hell, we know we are aware of our patterns and the things we do that we wish we didn't, but we are still unable to change. We understand, but feel stuck in this place of hell, even though our awareness keeps expanding.  To get out of awareness hell, our work to grow and transform must include three additional steps for change to take place. These three steps are Expression, Compassion, and New Ways of Being. All four make up the Cycle of Transformation. The Cycle of Transformation: The four steps in the cycle are Awareness, Expression, Compassion, and New Ways of Being. All four make up the Cycle of Transformation.               Be-Do-Have vs. Do-Have-Be: The life we long for comes from Be-Do-Have; the life we are taught we should strive for comes from Do-Have-Be. Recycling/pre-cycling is a tool and a practice for receiving wisdom from your own Spiritual Self, which gives you qualities that lead you directly to new behavior, authenticity, and the freedom to respond rather than react to patterns. You replace a pattern with an authentic quality of your Spiritual Self and embody that quality. You create new behavior from this embodiment. When recycling, you use a scene from your recent past when you acted out the pattern. In pre-cycling, you use an imagined scene when you act out the pattern at some point in the future. Your Spiritual Self ultimately guides you on how to BE so that you DO what supports your being and HAVE what you need to support your living. Read about Dark Side work in the Hoffman Q2.

Mego and Wiggy give their leads for the morning. Mego brings up how Caleb Durbin's hitting is getting better after finding help outside the organization. What can they do right?

DOCKET ALERTS:   The House Judiciary Committee wants to change the US Attorney statute to say what Attorney General Bondi claimed it did in court. This would involve the Senate voluntarily surrendering their power to vote on nominees, so … lotsa luck. Back in New Jersey, prosecutors say they'll seek superseding indictments in cases with Alina Habba's name on them, to remove the stink of illegitimacy.   The DOJ has quietly settled a trollsuit filed by red states and rightwing trolls, including Robert Kennedy, alleging social media censorship by the Biden administration. The Supreme Court already dropkicked this case once, so the parties agreed to simply declare victory and go home.   And Sam Bankman-Fried finds new ways to piss off judges and be sooooo weird, this time with help from his mom.   MAIN SHOW:   The DOJ settled a bogus lawsuit filed by former national security advisor Mike Flynn. His malicious prosecution claims had already been tossed by a federal judge, but she let him amend his complaint again, and by then Trump was back in the White House. Is this a new template for MAGA criminals to back the truck up to the Treasury and start filling it with taxpayer cash? The January 6 defendants sure seem to think so! We'll compare a newly filed case by rioters with a suit filed by pardoned Proud Boys.   And we've got a deep dive into the birthright citizenship case Trump v.

Father Ethan Southard joins Patrick to discuss New Ways to Evangelize Importance of Evangelization (14:49) what is the New Evangelization? (19:10) Break 1 (20:54) Arlene - My way of evangelizing is I'm a pretty good in giving reflections. Just an ordinary woman trying to be a better person as a Catholic. Every time I read the gospel, I try to search prayers and if I see a prayer or reflection, I share it with relatives/friends. (28:03) Joe - One way is trying to do ministry of care. Bringing the Eucharist to people who are sick and in nursing facilities. Also believe we need to learn how to help someone who wants to become Catholic. Referring people to sources of information and also being welcoming. How pleasant we are is important with generalization. (37:17) Break 2 How can we evangelize if we are afraid or feel inadequate. (42:09) Marcel - I think that the dioceses that have active young adult groups and Cursillo...sets a wonderful experience that many have made. By being involved with that, you learn a lot about evangelization and can share what works and what doesn't. Get to know them. Dangers of AI.

This week Andrew talks with Kansas City Current defender Kayla Sharples. Last season, Kayla led a defense that gave up just 13 goals in its 26 regular season matches — the best defensive mark by any team in NWSL history. For her efforts, Kayla was named to the NWSL's ‘Best XI' and was a finalist for NWSL Defender of the Year. In this conversation, Andrew & Kayla explore her journey to soccer stardom and many of the ideas, mindsets, & frameworks that power her success. This episode is about so much more than soccer — it's about how to take on new challenges, step out of your comfort zone, & always find new ways to grow. ** Follow Andrew **Instagram: @AndrewMoses123X: @andrewhmosesSign up for e-mails to keep up with the podcast at everybodypullsthetarp.com/newsletterDISCLAIMER: This podcast is solely for educational & entertainment purposes.

“Wisdom is a little bit more than just knowledge or experience; it’s a felt sense of truth and what reality is, and it’s a very tricky thing, because no one really has the final say on some of these things.” – Tyson Fok  When philosopher, designer, innovative creator, and Hoffman Process grad, Tyson Fok, tells his story, he weaves together his life experiences with his joyful pursuit of wisdom, an open sense of wonder, and a deeper quest for understanding. In doing so, he reveals a thoughtful retelling of a dynamic life path. There are many powerful threads to this conversation with Tyson and Sadie. What stands out is Tyson’s way of navigating the world and relationships with his fellow human beings. Since he was young, Tyson has explored his curiosity and sense of wonder. The question of ‘Why?’ has been at the heart of this exploration. He came to the Hoffman Process in 2019, having completed a ten-day silent retreat prior. Tyson touches on multiple outcomes from his Process. One is a deeper relationship with his wife. Another is the desire to leave awareness hell and venture into an active exploration of turning his ideas into reality. And a third is a profound understanding of his parents’ stories, separate and together, which helped him express his appreciation and love for them. Tyson shares, “My mother is an immigrant from Macau. My father’s family is from Hong Kong. And it’s such a different reality than what I grew up with. And to understand their story, where they came from, has given me just a whole different level of appreciation of my life. That was a huge shift for me that came out of Hoffman.” After the Process, and during COVID, Tyson decided to start a podcast. Eventually, his podcast morphed into what it is now, Mixtape Memories. The podcast has blossomed into a physical card game and an app. We hope you enjoy this wise and wonderful exploration of the question of ‘Why?’ with Tyson and Sadie. Listen on Apple Podcasts Listen on Spotify More about Tyson Fok: Tyson Fok is an interior designer, podcast host, and creative producer working at the intersection of space, story, and human connection. His design practice centers on creating environments that are not only visually compelling, but deeply aligned with the lives people want to live—spaces that function as both backdrop and catalyst for meaningful experience. He is the creator of Mixtape Memories, an ongoing storytelling project that explores identity through the music that shapes us. Through its podcast, Songversation card game, and companion app, the project invites people to reflect on their lives through song—transforming personal memory into a shared language of connection. Across his work, Tyson is driven by a core question: how do we design for a more intentional, connected life? This inquiry extends beyond interiors into the gatherings and communities he builds. As a community and event organizer, he creates spaces—both physical and social—where people can engage more honestly with themselves and each other, often blending elements of storytelling, design, and facilitated conversation. His approach is interdisciplinary but precise: remove noise, surface what matters, and design environments—whether a room, a conversation, or an experience—that make those priorities tangible and actionable.

Goenka. Awareness Hell: At the Hoffman Process, when we’re in awareness hell, we know we are aware of our patterns and the things we do we wish we didn't do, but we are still unable to change. We understand, but feel stuck in this place of hell, even though our awareness keeps expanding.  To get out of awareness hell, our work to grow and transform must include three additional steps for change to take place. These three steps are Expression, Compassion, and New Ways of Being. All four make up the Cycle of Transformation.

"When you look at where families invest across the spectrum of sustainable and impact investing, climate is really at the forefront. They think about that because, look at our environment, look at the food supply… because of environmental issues. Not withstanding the tariffs too….These are issues that have to be segmented and families are doing the work and they're putting their capital in…(F)amilies really are more and more values aligning their investments, and there's a blurring  (of the) line between philanthropy and catalytic investing so that they can invest in climate and do things in all their active portfolios. So I feel like this is just going to increase over time in a pretty significant way." Jolyne Caruso on Electric Ladies Podcast The great wealth transfer of $124 trillion will flow into the hands of women, Millennials and Gen Zrs over the next 30 years, and these are hands that value climate, clean energy, sustainability and social causes more than their forebears. What impact might that have? Listen to Jolyne Caruso, Financial Executive, Investor and Wealth Advisor in this enlightening conversation with Electric Ladies Podcast host Joan Michelson. You'll hear about: ●        How women tend to donate and invest differently than men do and why. ●        Impact and climate-related investing the way women, Gen Z & Millennials do it. ●        New spins on "risk" and "reward" & why financial literacy is crucial. ●        What the great wealth transfer is and how it could dramatically affect the economy. ●        Plus, career advice, such as:  "One of the things that I recommend women do, Joan, is to join boards as soon as they can. And I'll tell you why. When I was at Barnard, I was very involved as a student in my class. I was reunion chair and raising money for my class. But it wasn't until I got on the alumni board at Barnard, which led to getting on the big board at Barnard when I was 40 years old, that my life fundamentally changed….This isn't about giving a hundred thousand dollars to your alma mater that you don't have. It's finding boards that will all take women of all ages…My daughter's on the board of a dog rescue company, organization. Get on a board and sit around the table and become a change agent in that regard….Because you network, you get hands-on experience without being at work."

Zach Zucker Talks Survivor 50 Today, Rob Cesternino teams up with comedian and Survivor superfan Zach Zucker to recap all the action from the latest episode. With the season hitting its halfway point, Rob and Zach dig into the ever-changing alliances, bold idol plays, and the unique power of alter egos shaping the strategies of returning veterans and rising stars. This episode features sharp analysis and plenty of laughs as the duo unpacks the drama and chaos of Survivor's landmark 50th season. Rob and Zach spotlight how returning players bring standout personas into the game—for example, Cirie slipping back into her “gangster in an Oprah suit” mode, Ozzy reinventing himself as “Oscar,” and Coach claiming his “Coach 4.0” identity. A highlight is Rizo's evolution into “Rizgod,” using big confessionals and social savvy to build trust with Survivor legends. They discuss tribe splits, unpredictable vote outcomes, and how larger groups open up possibilities for wild blindsides, drawing comparisons to the dynamic gameplay of Australian Survivor. The conversation also explores Genevieve's impressive transition from a wounded first-timer to a confident competitor, alongside the psychology of how eager, driven players can intimidate their tribemates at camp. – The return of iconic personas: Cirie, Ozzy (“Oscar”), Coach (“Coach 4.0”) – Rizo's rise as “Rizgod” and his impact on this season's alliances – The role of hunger and ambition in making players targets at Tribal Council – Genevieve's strategic comeback and how second chances shift gameplay – Tribe size debates: how big groups create more chaos and unpredictable voting Rob and Zach ponder whether bold alter egos like Rizo's will last, and if Survivor 50 is truly passing the torch to a new generation of legends.

Zach Zucker Talks Survivor 50 Today, Rob Cesternino teams up with comedian and Survivor superfan Zach Zucker to recap all the action from the latest episode. With the season hitting its halfway point, Rob and Zach dig into the ever-changing alliances, bold idol plays, and the unique power of alter egos shaping the strategies of returning veterans and rising stars. This episode features sharp analysis and plenty of laughs as the duo unpacks the drama and chaos of Survivor's landmark 50th season. Rob and Zach spotlight how returning players bring standout personas into the game—for example, Cirie slipping back into her “gangster in an Oprah suit” mode, Ozzy reinventing himself as “Oscar,” and Coach claiming his “Coach 4.0” identity. A highlight is Rizo's evolution into “Rizgod,” using big confessionals and social savvy to build trust with Survivor legends. They discuss tribe splits, unpredictable vote outcomes, and how larger groups open up possibilities for wild blindsides, drawing comparisons to the dynamic gameplay of Australian Survivor. The conversation also explores Genevieve's impressive transition from a wounded first-timer to a confident competitor, alongside the psychology of how eager, driven players can intimidate their tribemates at camp. – The return of iconic personas: Cirie, Ozzy (“Oscar”), Coach (“Coach 4.0”) – Rizo's rise as “Rizgod” and his impact on this season's alliances – The role of hunger and ambition in making players targets at Tribal Council – Genevieve's strategic comeback and how second chances shift gameplay – Tribe size debates: how big groups create more chaos and unpredictable voting Rob and Zach ponder whether bold alter egos like Rizo's will last, and if Survivor 50 is truly passing the torch to a new generation of legends. Will strong personalities and ambitious moves pay off, or will under-the-radar players take control as the merge unfolds?
