Ragebait, sponcon, A.I. slop — the internet of 2026 makes a lot of us nostalgic for the internet of 10 or 15 years ago.What exactly went wrong here? How did the early promise of the internet get so twisted? And what exactly is wrong here? What kinds of policies could actually make our digital lives meaningfully better?Cory Doctorow and Tim Wu have two different theories of the case, which I thought would be interesting to put in conversation together. Doctorow is a science fiction writer, an activist with the Electronic Frontier Foundation and the author of “Enshittification: Why Everything Suddenly Got Worse and What to Do About It.” Wu is a law professor who worked on technology policy in the Biden White House; his latest book is “The Age of Extraction: How Tech Platforms Conquered the Economy and Threaten Our Future Prosperity.”In this conversation, we discuss their different frameworks, and how they connect to all kinds of issues that plague the modern internet: the feeling that we're being manipulated; the deranging of our politics; the squeezing of small businesses and creators; the deluge of spam and fraud; the constant surveillance and privacy risks; the quiet rise of algorithmic pricing; and the dehumanization of work. And they lay out the policies that they think would go furthest in making all these different aspects of our digital lives better.Mentioned:Enshittification by Cory DoctorowThe Age of Extraction by Tim Wu“Fighting Enshittification” by Josh RichmanBook Recommendations:Small Is Beautiful by E.

FOLLOW RICHARD Website: https://www.strangeplanet.ca YouTube: @strangeplanetradio Instagram: @richardsyrettstrangeplanet TikTok: @therealstrangeplanet EP. #1317 Empire of Lies: The Wars They Erased—and the Truth They Can't Bury Tonight on Strange Planet, Richard Syrett opens the memory hole with Charles Goyette, author of Empire of Lies: Fragments from the Memory Hole. This isn't left versus right—it's empire versus truth. From Iraq and Libya to Ukraine, Goyette argues modern power survives not by winning wars, but by erasing them—burying catastrophe beneath slogans and manufactured consensus. A former Armed Forces Radio anchor who once helped tell the official story, he now exposes the machinery behind it: a compliant press, a political class addicted to conflict, and a public conditioned to forget. What happens when the lies multiply… and belief finally collapses? GUEST: Charles Goyette is a veteran broadcaster, former Armed Forces Radio news anchor, and New York Times bestselling author of Empire of Lies: Fragments from the Memory Hole. A recipient of the U.S. Army Commendation Medal, Goyette spent years inside the media and military information apparatus before breaking ranks to expose what he calls the “engineered forgetting” that sustains modern empire. Blending investigative rigor with historical analysis, his work examines war propaganda, media complicity, and the psychology of power—arguing that today's global conflicts are sustained as much by narrative control as by military force.

Mike Bara spent 25 years in aerospace working on Boeing 757, 767, F-35, and classified military programs before co-authoring the New York Times bestseller Dark Mission: The Secret History of NASA with Richard C. Hoagland.A frequent Ancient Aliens contributor and author of seven books on suppressed space discoveries, Bara uses his aerospace engineering background to challenge official narratives about extraterrestrial artifacts and secret technology programs. Starting as a Boeing draftsman in 1979, he advanced through experience on compartmentalized black programs, giving him unique insight into defense contracting and classified operations. He connects Roswell, the JFK assassination, and current Congressional UFO hearings, arguing that anti-gravity technology has existed since the 1960s and ancient civilizations left engineering marvels across our solar system.

On this episode Razib talks to Jesse Arm, VP of external affairs at the Manhattan Institute. His writing and commentary have appeared in the New York Times, Wall Street Journal, The Atlantic, New York Post, Fox News, City Journal and Jerusalem Post. Arm graduated with honors from the University of Michigan, where he majored in international political economy, and studied language and international affairs at Tel Aviv University. He has also worked for Senator Tom Cotton and Representative Dan Benishek, and the analytics arm of American Continental Group, a major lobbying firm. Razib and Arm discuss the perceptions and attitudes of Gen Z Republicans, focusing on a group of 18-29-year-olds in Nashville, TN. Arm notes that while Gen Z feels economic anxiety, they are also entrepreneurial and comfortable with the world of social media. Gen Z Republicans are religious, like previous generations, but less likely to be married or have long-term partners at the same age as earlier cohorts. They express a desire for politics to be entertaining, similar to reality TV. The conversation also touches on the influence of social media on their views, the power of influencers like Nick Fuentes, and the potential for future political figures to emerge from the creator class. Arm also addresses the impact of intergenerational wealth transfer on political attitudes.

In this episode, Carl expands the idea of planning beyond money to include the four forms of capital we're always spending: money, energy, time, and attention. He explains why plans that only optimize for dollars can look great on paper and still fail in real life, especially when invisible costs like exhaustion, distraction, or resentment go unexamined. Through simple, human examples, Carl argues that attention is the true currency of meaning and relationships, and that real planning is about aligning how we use all of our capital with what actually matters to us.Want more from Carl?

Harlan shares valuable insights on how parents can guide their children through this pivotal time, emphasizing the need for open communication, understanding, and patience. The discussion also touches on the significance of building relationships with professors, navigating loneliness, and embracing the curvy paths that each student's journey may take. Harlan's practical advice and personal anecdotes provide a roadmap for parents and students alike, making this episode a must-listen for anyone preparing for the college experience.TakeawaysHarlan Cohen emphasizes the importance of meeting kids where they are in their unique experiences.Parents should focus on guiding their children rather than directing them.Understanding that struggles belong to the child while victories belong to the parent can help maintain a healthy dynamic.The first year of college is often filled with loneliness, and it's crucial to prepare students for this reality.Rejection is a natural part of life, and learning to cope with it is essential for personal growth.Students should approach new experiences with curiosity rather than a need to be accepted.Building relationships with professors can significantly impact a student's success.Parents should allow their children to experience natural consequences to foster independence.The college experience is not just about academics; social and emotional aspects are equally important.Every child's journey is different, and comparisons can be detrimental.Contact Harlan CohenInstagram: @harlancohenFacebook: @helpmeharlanTik Tok: @helpmeharlanPodcast: The Harlan Cohen Podcastwww.harlancohen.comBooks: The Naked Roommate: And 107 Other Issues You Might Run Into in CollegeWin or Learn: The Naked Truth About Turning Every Event into Your Ultimate SuccessThe Happiest Kid on CampusGetting Naked: Five Steps to Finding the Love of Your Life (While Fully Clothed ans Sober)Dad's Expecting Too: Expectant Fathers, Expectant Mothers, New Dads and New Moms Share Advice

Grab a generous 30% discount on any STEMREGEN product with: http://stemregen.co/dave30 Dave Asprey sits down with Christian Drapeau, a neuroscientist trained at McGill University and a leading researcher in stem cell science. Christian pioneered a therapeutic approach called Endogenous Stem Cell Mobilization, authored the bestselling book Cracking the Stem Cell Code, and developed the concept of stem cell enhancement. He is the Founder and CSO of STEMREGEN, where his work focuses on helping the body release and use its own stem cells more effectively. Together, they break down why many injected stem cells never survive long enough to help, how the lungs trap a large percentage of IV stem cells, and why releasing your own stem cells into arterial circulation changes the outcome. They explore stem cell decline as a core driver of aging, tissue degeneration, and chronic inflammation, and explain why fasting is currently the only intervention shown to rejuvenate stem cells through autophagy. You'll hear why a three-day fast has measurable effects on bone marrow aging, how stem cells act as signaling molecules that coordinate repair across the body, and why mitochondria play a massive and underappreciated role in stem cell renewal and tissue regeneration. The conversation also covers scar tissue, fibrosis, recovery from injury, and why healing quality matters just as much as healing speed. You'll Learn: • Why stem cell decline, not simple wear and tear, drives aging • How fasting supports stem cell rejuvenation through autophagy • Why many injected stem cells die in the lungs before helping tissue • How releasing your own stem cells differs from IV stem cell therapy • Why mitochondria are central to stem cell function and repair • How scar tissue and fibrosis form when repair fails • Why recovery quality determines long-term resilience and longevity Dave Asprey is a four time New York Times bestselling author, founder of Bulletproof Coffee, and the father of biohacking.

SEASON 4 EPISODE 56: COUNTDOWN WITH KEITH OLBERMANN A-Block (2:30) SPECIAL COMMENT: In destroying The Washington Post yesterday, Trump-fluffer Jeff Bezos has gone far enough. Democratic leaders must commit to using anti-trust laws to destroy Amazon, Prime, Blue Origin - and Bezos, financially. Every would-be president, senator, representative must vow to break the oligarchs - Bezos, Musk, Trump, and all the rest. Bezos first hollowed out the Post to make it servile to Trump and his gang. Now he's destroyed its foreign and sports desks, and its viability as a counterweight to the anti-democracy forces abroad in the land. All so he could spend $75,000,000 or more on a vanity project designed to tell Trump a life: that his wife is an attractive "movie star." We are not going back to the America of 1885. We must bankrupt Jeff Bezos. (And I apologize for the slipshod nature of this episode. I'm under the weather, throat bad, was planning to postpone this episode but this could not wait. Please forgive for the extemporaneous nature of the commentary; the rest of the show is interesting but not new) B-Block (30:00) OLYMPICS TIME: As the 2026 games begin in Italy let me take you back to the most famous winter games yet: the 1980 Lake Placid Olympics, which I covered as a 21-year old rookie with United Press International (while my bosses tried to teach me how to work and drink at the same time).

Paul Krugman, Nobel laureate in economics, former New York Times columnist now on Substack, distinguished professor at the City University of New York Graduate Center, and the author of Arguing with Zombies: Economics, Politics, and the Fight for a Better Future (W. W. Norton & Company, 2020), talks about how President Trump's economic policies are affecting investors, and what that could mean for the overall economy.

Thirty-six hours before his wife was scheduled for a major surgery, New York Times personal finance columnist Ron Lieber got a letter in the mail that sent him reeling. Insurance was denying prior authorization for the surgery. The only way forward would be to appeal the decision. But it was Saturday night, and the surgery was Monday morning. There wouldn’t be any time. Should they even go to the hospital? They decided to bet on being able to reverse the denial later on, but the last minute coverage questions left Ron’s wife, New York Times reporter Jodi Kantor, going into surgery that Monday with a brand new sense of stress and anxiety. And along with worrying how his wife's surgery would go (spoiler: it was successful), and whether they’d end up on the hook for a bajillion dollars, it left Ron to wonder why no one had given them a heads-up earlier. He set out to find answers — and whether there might be a way to prevent these last-minute denials from sneaking up on other people. Ron turned to his "Your Money" newsletter subscribers for ideas, and eventually published a draft letter in his New York Times column that doctors and other health care providers could give their patients to better prepare them for insurance curveballs. Check out the column here – and consider passing it along to any health care workers whose patients you think might benefit. Here’s a transcript of this episode. Send your stories and questions.

Merriam-Webster's Word of the Day for February 5, 2026 is: adulation • aj-uh-LAY-shun • noun Adulation refers to extreme or excessive admiration, flattery, or praise. // The triumphant players were greeted with shouts of adulation. See the entry > Examples: “Curators focus on the sunnier side of Elvis's tragic story, yet Graceland still provides an intimate glimpse into superstardom and all that comes with it: the adulation, the opulence, the hangers-on and the darkness that counterbalances such a burst of light.” — Rick Rojas, The New York Times, 29 Nov. 2025 Did you know? If witnessing a display of adulation reminds you of a dog panting after its beloved person, you've picked up adulation's etymological “scent”; the word ultimately comes from the Latin verb adūlārī, meaning “to fawn on” (a sense used specifically of the affectionate behavior of dogs) or “to praise insincerely.” Adulation has been in use in English since the 15th century. The verb adulate, noun adulator, and adjective adulatory followed dutifully behind.

Rebecca Yarros is a number one New York Times bestselling author of more than twenty novels, including Fourth Wing, Iron Flame, and Onyx Storm, which became the fastest-selling adult novel in twenty years with 2.7 million copies sold in its first week. In this conversation from March 2025, Yarros sits down with Jenna Bush Hager to talk about crafting sweeping love stories and how living with chronic illness and growing up in a military family shaped the world of Fourth Wing. Plus, she opens up about balancing sudden fame with motherhood, why readers have fallen so deeply for her characters, and how writing romance helped her believe in a dream she once thought was out of reach.

In part two of Red Eye Radio with Gary McNamara and Eric Harley, a NY Times article breaks down President Trump's numbers on the 2024 election and pollster opinion reveals no dependence on a MAGA mono culture. Most votes in his favor skewed independents and some liberals who were disenchanted with the Biden Administration and their lack of faith in the Democratic agenda. Also affordability remains the key concern for voters going into the mid-terms, audio from Bill Maher on last year's Oscars, Senator Bernie Sanders who crisscrossed the country last year on a Fighting Oligarchy tour with AOC spent over $550,000 in 2025 on private jet travel for himself using campaign funds and the SAVE Act gains momentum (save for Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer).

Is the right way to fight Antisemitism maybe to… stop fighting it?In this special episode, we share The State of World Jewry address delivered by New York Times columnist Bret Stephens at the 92nd Street Y. Stephens, who is also the editor-in-chief of SAPIR Journal, offers a bracing diagnosis of modern antisemitism and argues that it cannot be educated away, apologized for, or solved through allyship. Instead, he calls for Jewish confidence, cultural seriousness, and moral clarity in the face of rising hostility.In this episode:- Why antisemitism is about resentment, not misunderstanding- The false promise of fighting antisemitism head-on- The danger of approval-seeking and respectability politics- October 8th Jews and the identity reckoning- Jewish values as inherently countercultural- Building strength instead of chasing acceptanceThis episode was sponsored by SAPIR: Sign up for the SAPIR journal at sapirjournal.org/CallMeBackMore Ark Media:Want to join Ark Media?

Erin Somers' new novel, The Ten Year Affair is a story about Millennial disillusionment (and extramarital sex). The New Yorker called it “intoxicating” and W praised the book for its “sometimes mocking examination of young middle age.” I wanted to speak with Erin because her characters reflect a sense of grown-up melancholy arising when goals like home ownership, careers, and parenthood don't provide the fulfillment that was expected of them. So what do we do, she asks implicitly, when we find ourselves in a life designed to have meaning but does not deliver on that promise? Her characters also embody the impossible and contradictory messages society has imposed on gender roles for her generation. For men: be sensitive, inclusive, do half the housework, but still make a lot of money. For women: go conquer the corporate world while simultaneously being a present, nurturing mother and a sensual, doting wife. To me, this issue—even more than the deliciously provocative infidelity—is what has me continuing to think about the book, weeks after I finished it. Erin's writing and reportage has appeared in The New York Times Magazine, The New Yorker, The Paris Review, Esquire, GQ, The Nation, The New Republic, and elsewhere. Vogue named her first novel, Stay Up With Hugo Best, to their list of the Best Books of the Year for 2019. ✍️Please ⁠rate and review⁠ ⁠⁠Reasonably Happy⁠⁠ (DO IT!) ✍️ https://ratethispodcast.com/paulopod

Have you ever felt like something unseen is guiding you… even when life doesn't make sense? In this episode, I'm joined by internationally renowned psychic medium, teacher, and New York Times bestselling author Laura Lynne Jackson for a heartfelt conversation about intuition, trust, and living what she calls an illuminated life. We talk about the signs we receive from our Team of Light, the inner knowing we often doubt, and what happens when we finally surrender control and allow life to unfold with more grace. Laura shares insights from her latest book, Guided: The Secret Path to an Illuminated Life, and we explore how guidance shows up through love, loss, healing, and even the moments that feel confusing or painful. This conversation touches on consciousness beyond the physical body, grief and continuing bonds, emotional release, forgiveness, boundaries, and divine timing—without trying to explain it all away. It's not about bypassing the hard parts of life but learning how to walk through the darkness with more trust, awareness, and compassion. If you've been questioning your path, feeling disconnected from loved ones who've passed, or wondering whether you're truly supported… This episode is an invitation to listen differently, and find alignment through intention and love. You are more guided than you realize. Key Moments You'll Love ✨:

New Year's resolutions promise hope, but for many people, they quietly deliver shame, stress, and self-blame instead. If resolutions leave you feeling worse about yourself every January, this episode explains why — and what actually works. Host Gabe Howard is joined by returning favorite Jodi Wellman to unpack why traditional goal-setting often backfires, especially when it comes to mental health. They explore the psychology behind the “fresh start effect,” how all-or-nothing thinking sets us up to fail, and why massive lifestyle overhauls rarely stick. More importantly, they offer practical, compassionate alternatives; Like shifting from rigid goals to identity-based habits, process-focused wins, and restarting without guilt when things go off track. Listener Takeaways The mental health cost of setting outcome-based goals Why smaller, process-focused goals actually create lasting change How to restart a goal without guilt or self-punishment Whether you've already ditched your New Year's resolutions or never believed in them to begin with, this episode explores a healthier, more realistic way to create change—without harming your mental well-being. “What is really common, which is set a goal. Don't get there. Feel bad about it. So net net it's not a good experience. For many of us, that's problematic because we feel badly about ourselves [. . .] And maybe that's your version of self-compassion is to let that goal gracefully go.” ~Jodi Wellman, MAPP Our guest, Jodi Wellman, MAPP is a speaker, author, and facilitator on living lives worth living.

There are episodes that feel like a permission slip… and this one is exactly that. If you've ever thought, "I'm a wedding photographer," or "I'm a family photographer," or you've let a label quietly box you in—this conversation is for you. I'm bringing back my dear friend Elizabeth Messina to the podcast, and every time she's here, I'm reminded why her work has moved people for decades: she doesn't just take photos—she sees women. We talk about what it actually looks like to evolve across genres without losing your signature. How to stay curious even after years in the industry. And why the real "secret" behind her iconic imagery isn't a preset or a pose—it's connection, presence, and trust. Key Takeaways Trust your voice—your point of view matters, even when other styles inspire you. Stay curious forever; learning keeps your work (and you) alive. Sensitivity and empathy aren't "too much"—they're a creative advantage behind the camera. Your brand can be cohesive across genres when your eye is the through-line. Photograph women through seasons of life, not rigid categories like "weddings" or "maternity." Maternity work is powerful because it holds joy, vulnerability, and identity change at once. There are infinite ways to photograph pregnancy—go beyond the standard belly pose. Build trust through connection first; the image comes second. Offer possibility with "What if…?" instead of forcing a concept onto a client. Make the process the win—real connection matters even when you don't get the booking. Know your gear and workflow so the "technical math" doesn't interrupt your creativity. Stay engaged with your own work (even if you outsource) so you keep evolving as an artist. Trust is built in your communication long before the shoot—read what they asked and respond like a human. A sustainable career often comes from evolving alongside your clients over time. This episode is a love letter to the idea that you don't have to be "one thing" to be taken seriously. You can evolve. You can explore. You can shoot weddings and maternity and dark moody work and sun-drenched dreamy work—and still be unmistakably you. Elizabeth's work is proof that your artistry gets stronger the more you stay connected: to your camera, to your subjects, and to your own creative truth. And if you're feeling that tug to expand what you shoot—take this as your sign: you're allowed to grow. Meet Elizabeth Elizabeth Messina is a world renowned, award winning, celebrity photographer. She is a New York Times best selling author & a passionate teacher.. Elizabeth was named "one of the most influential photographers of our decade" by PDN.  Elizabeth has been capturing evocative photographs of women since she picked up a camera at the tender age of 12. Her images are a reflection of her heart. Elizabeth Messina is a visionary, her images tell stories of longing, solitude & the tangible beauty of the human experience. Although Elizabeth's photography takes her all over the world, her home is in Southern California, where she lives with her 3 children & 3 dogs.

"One thing that's really interesting to me...is that one of our great cultural critics is Stephen King... the basically the first big review of Red Dragon in the I think it was in the Washington Post in 1981, and it is not only a rave, but it is completely 100 spot on. Red Dragon is like stepping into a limousine where everything works... perfectly."In this very special bonus episode of MINHUNTER, I speak to the extremely talented journalist, author and podcaster Brian Raftery about his great new novel, HANNIBAL LECTER - A LIFE. Synopsis: Drawing from exclusive interviews and previously unseen archival materials, this one-of-its-kind biography of Hannibal Lecter documents the cannibal's journey from terrifying villain to unexpectedly adored antihero.This unique biography traces the many lives and crimes of Hannibal Lecter: his disturbing debut in Thomas Harris's 1981 novel Red Dragon; his rise to infamy in beloved films like Michael Mann's Manhunter and Jonathan Demme's Academy Award–winning The Silence of the Lambs; and his unexpected comeback in the cult-hit TV series Hannibal. It also dives into the untold life and career of Harris, the secretive bestselling author whose passion for reporting, eye for grisly detail, and connections to the FBI helped birth not only Lecter, but also the modern true-crime genre. Along the way, Hannibal Lecter: A Life documents the many ways Lecter's rise reflected America's ever-growing obsession with real-life serial killers.Featuring all-new interviews with crucial figures from Lecter's past—including actor Brian Cox, director Mann, and former FBI special agent John Douglas—Hannibal Lecter: A Life is a deeply reported, wildly entertaining look at the making of one of the most beloved bad guys of all time.About Brian Raftery Brian Raftery's work has appeared in such publications as The New York Times, Wired, GQ, and The Ringer. He's the author of Best.
