Podcasts about not okay

Well,  @elyarchi6981  sent a threat to  @ThePrintHouse  over their video where they were not only honest, but gave them the benefit of the doubt. Should companies even be allowed to do this??? Creators are trusted for our opinions, that is the only thing we have, our integrity, and part of printer reviews and first looks is that we have full control over what is said and why. Yes, we often want to give the companies the benefit of the doubt, but when they send threatening messages, it is not okay. Here is what  @elyarchi6981  said to  @ThePrintHouse :"If the video is not removed, I will be forced to escalate the situation by reporting the issue to YouTube and informing our industry contacts and other brand partners of this breach of professional conduct."This is 100% NOT OKAY, so, let's talk about it.

Wouter Hardy (Arcade)- 3:36, NYLAN (The Code, Shhhh) - 23:46, Benji Alasu (The Code, Survivor) - 41:43       This week, we're talking to the songwriters behind two Eurovision winning hits. First we sit down with Wouter Hardy, who co-wrote Duncan Laurence's Arcade - the first Eurovision song in nearly a quarter century to chart on the Billboard Hot 100. Then we turn to two writers, NYLAN and Benji Alasu who, along with Linda Dale and Nemo themselves, wrote last year's Eurovision winner, Nemo's The Code. These writers give us a window into their unique processes and help us further explore the diversity of ways in which Eurovision songs get written - and how that diversity in process affects the song you end up with in the end.       Featured Songs:     Duncan Laurence, Arcade - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Eztx7Wr8PtE     Duncan Laurence, Stars - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l1Zv_xZiaok       Gjons Tears, Tout L'Univers - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bpM6o6UiBIw       Nemo, The Code - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kiGDvM14Kwg       Theo Evans, Shh - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rbfQqWyqgJw       Elsie Bay, 100 Years - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-UbFfO_Uy80       Parg, Survivor - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RfH5o3XtI2c       Milune, Torn - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uwBN-17HXGE       Remo Forrer, Not Okay - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cXZM-DH5Zb4

An episode that explores the impact of My Chemical Romance through an autistic and neurodivergent perspective. Matt, Angela, and our sound engineer Simon Scott break down how the band's emotional intensity, justice themes, and outsider energy have made them a lasting icon within the autistic community.Here's what's in store for today's episode: * Today, we're taking a deep dive into My Chemical Romance and exploring how they reflect and embody elements of the autistic experience.* Our podcast producer, sound engineer, and behind-the-scenes magic man, Simon Scott, steps in front of the mic today to talk about his special interest.* We kick things off with the ultimate lore deep dive—tracing the butterfly effect from 9/11 all the way to Ellen DeGeneres getting canceled (yes, it is connected to My Chemical Romance, and yes, it makes sense… eventually).* After witnessing the Twin Towers fall from the Hudson River on 9/11, Gerard Way felt a deep urge to create something bigger than himself—something that could connect people through shared emotion and purpose. Out of that moment, My Chemical Romance was born.* We then dive into how bottom-up processing and autistic hyper-empathy may have influenced Gerard's decision—how taking in overwhelming sensory and emotional details of the moment could have sparked a need to respond in a deeply personal, creative, and connective way.* The band went on to write, produce, perform, and publish their entire first album within a week—a hyperfixation-fueled feat that no neurotypical could realistically pull off with the same intensity, focus, and urgency.* Their albums are deeply narrative, with each one following characters that symbolically represent the band members themselves. The first two albums build a layered universe that culminates in their third release—Welcome to the Black Parade—widely regarded as their magnum opus and a defining moment in emo and alternative music history.* We unpack the imagery in the “I'm Not Okay (I Promise)” music video and how it resonates with many autistic traits—highlighting themes of social rejection, masking, sensory overwhelm, and the desperate need to be understood in a world that constantly misunderstands you.* Next, we explore themes of justice sensitivity woven throughout MCR's lyrics—a trait commonly linked to the autistic experience—and how the so-called “autistic accent” subtly shapes the cadence, rhythm, and emotional delivery of their songs, adding layers of urgency, vulnerability, and authenticity.* Our hosts and Simon dive into the rich subculture that's emerged from the band's work—a world built by and for the outcasts, the overly emotional, the neurodivergent, and those who never quite fit in. MCR didn't just create music—they created a movement, a safe haven, and a language for people who feel everything too much.* Finally, we dive into expectation sensitivity, unpack the reasons behind the band's 8-year hiatus, and reflect on their powerful return—why their message hits harder than ever in today's world and why we still need MCR now more than ever.“I'd rather be a creature of the night than just some old dude.” - Gerard Way“I disappoint a lot of people. They expect me to be one way. If I spend a minute with them, they end up saying, ‘Oh, you're actually just a really nice person. They hate me when they catch me out of my makeup.” - Gerard Way“Neurotypical people tend to do things for power, prestige, and profit. He's not doing it because he wants to maintain the My Chemical Romance empire. He's not doing it because he wants to be famous. He's not doing it because he wants all the money. He has a story to tell. He has a reason for doing the thing.” - MattDid you enjoy this episode? We took a deep dive into the world of My Chemical Romance and how their music, message, and aesthetic embody key aspects of the autistic experience. From the butterfly effect of 9/11 to the cancellation of Ellen (yes, really), we trace the band's origins, explore autistic hyper-empathy and justice sensitivity in their lyrics, and analyze how the “autistic accent” shows up in their sound. Plus, we break down the iconic “I'm Not Okay” music video and the subculture that's made MCR a safe haven for neurodivergent weirdos everywhere.

Dr. Glenn and Phyllis Hill unpack a recent “miss” in their relationship—one that reflects a broader season of emotional exhaustion, grief, and life transition. From losing Glenn's mother to living a nomadic life out of a suitcase, the Hills open up about the cumulative weariness they've been carrying. Phyllis courageously names the fear of “forever missing each other” and the exhaustion that sometimes keeps her from even wanting to analyze the disconnection. This episode is not about offering quick fixes—it's a raw, heartfelt look at what it means to live through heavy seasons and still choose connection. Whether you're in burnout, walking through grief, or feeling stuck in cycles of disconnection, this episode will remind you: you're not alone, and there's hope in the wide lens.Links and Resources:Book a discovery call for Overwhelm Overhaul: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://calendly.com/tera-wages/30min?month=2025-03 ⁠To download the Core Emotion Wheel: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.connectioncodes.co/wheel⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ To enroll in Foundations use the code PODCAST for 20% off: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.connectioncodes.co/marriage-course-online⁠Book a coaching session with Dr. Glenn: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.connectioncodes.co/marriage-help⁠(If links are not working, please copy and paste connectioncodes.co to your search bar and look through our site menu!)⁠⁠________________________________________________________________Chapters:00:00:00 – We're Not Okay (and That's Okay)00:01:20 – When Life Just Keeps Coming at You00:04:16 – Tiny Misses, Big Emotional Impact00:06:39 – I Felt It, But I Didn't Know Why00:13:17 – The Moment We Completely Missed Each Other00:26:16 – From Laughing… to “What Just Happened?”00:26:43 – Unpacking the Emotional Whiplash00:27:18 – Are You Seeing Me As the Enemy?00:28:21 – You Thought I Was Mad… I Wasn't00:30:21 – Slowing Down Before the Disconnect00:33:06 – Reconnection Starts with Brave Vulnerability00:36:08 – How the Emotion Wheel Saved the Moment00:43:48 - Encouragement for Listeners

Jordan and Alex smear their best mascara across their tear-stained eyes for an episode on My Chemical Romance's "Three Cheers for Sweet Revenge" and the brief moment when the innacurate catchall genre of "emo" dominated rock radio. They'll explore how 9/11 -- and the DIY music scene of New Brunswick, New Jersey -- spurred a young illustrator and Cartoon Network intern named Gerard Way into transforming himself into a messianic rock frontman; how the band's early trio of videos cemented them as MTV darlings, and how the band's early rise was nearly derailed by Way's heroic intake of alcohol. They'll also trace the roots of "emo" from the D.C. hardcore scene of the '80s as it sprouted and transformed in the Midwest and Northeast, pine for the days of major-label interest in niche bands, marvel at some of Way's more hilariously youthful soundbites, and learn how "I'm Not Okay" came together from an a cappella recording at the tail end of a demo tape.

I found a powerful poem from a post on Facebook that I wanted to share.  It comes from a page called: “I'm going that way.” and this poem has some great reminders for all of us as to even if we are not okay, there are plenty of things that we are worthy of being. The poem brings up a few. I throw some of my own reflections into this and I know you can connect with these ways along with your own too.  I mentioned a recent John O'Leary podcast where his guest shares a powerful story that fits into this too.  Find the podcast:  “A Father Learning to “Walk On” After the Tragic Loss of his Son: Stephen Panus” (ep. 736) by clicking on the link. Amazing and emotional story. On a less sad note, I do want to wish everyone a very happy New Year!! I'm looking forward to Season 9 for me and my podcast in 2025 along with many new & exciting things in my life.  I hope you can say the same for your life too in the new year.

Living in a culture that prizes constant productivity can make it hard to acknowledge the struggles we face beneath the surface. There's a pressure to keep going, to always seem fine, even when things feel overwhelming. Confronting those battles means letting ourselves slow down and accept that it's okay not to have it all together. Sometimes, just recognizing those struggles is the first step toward finding peace in a world that rarely stops to notice. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r_1GNSySNx0 Sheridan Taylor is a Canadian Army combat veteran who has bravely turned his personal struggles into a source of inspiration for many.

Happy Thanksgiving, y'all!

The 2024 election was referred to many as the "gender election." We saw breathless stories by the media about Gen Z men, black men, Latino men and others trending towards Donald Trump over Democrat Kamala Harris. Trump's strategy of messaging to men proved effective and he won the election. This also runs parallel to a crisis among men (particularly working class men) around stagnant wages, healthcare, declining qualities of life, isolation and alienation. In our first post-election episode, we talk with journalist Ryan Zickgraf about Trump's appeal to men and what the left can do about it. Bio// Ryan (@ryan_zickgraf) is a journalist based in Pennsylvania.

Seventy million Americans are reeling from the election results this week. I am one of them. I have cycled through so many negative emotions: shock, anger, rage, fear, sorrow.

Today, Megan discusses her transition from therapist to grief therapist after the death of her own husband, the importance of food in grief (and why eating and meditation may be difficult for those who are currently grieving), the expectations and judgements we place upon those navigating through loss, moving on romantically after losing a partner, and how sometimes gender differences can affect how we mourn.

Welcome to The Nonlinear Library, where we use Text-to-Speech software to convert the best writing from the Rationalist and EA communities into audio. This is: AI #66: Oh to Be Less Online, published by Zvi on June 1, 2024 on LessWrong. Tomorrow I will fly out to San Francisco, to spend Friday through Monday at the LessOnline conference at Lighthaven in Berkeley. If you are there, by all means say hello. If you are in the Bay generally and want to otherwise meet, especially on Monday, let me know that too and I will see if I have time to make that happen. Even without that hiccup, it continues to be a game of playing catch-up. Progress is being made, but we are definitely not there yet (and everything not AI is being completely ignored for now). Last week I pointed out seven things I was unable to cover, along with a few miscellaneous papers and reports. Out of those seven, I managed to ship on three of them: Ongoing issues at OpenAI, The Schumer Report and Anthropic's interpretability paper. However, OpenAI developments continue. Thanks largely to Helen Toner's podcast, some form of that is going back into the queue. Some other developments, including new media deals and their new safety board, are being covered normally. The post on DeepMind's new scaling policy should be up tomorrow. I also wrote a full post on a fourth, Reports of our Death, but have decided to shelve that post and post a short summary here instead. That means the current 'not yet covered queue' is as follows: 1. DeepMind's new scaling policy. 1. Should be out tomorrow before I leave, or worst case next week. 2. The AI Summit in Seoul. 3. Further retrospective on OpenAI including Helen Toner's podcast. Table of Contents 1. Introduction. 2. Table of Contents. 3. Language Models Offer Mundane Utility. You heard of them first. 4. Not Okay, Google. A tiny little problem with the AI Overviews. 5. OK Google, Don't Panic. Swing for the fences. Race for your life. 6. Not Okay, Meta. Your application to opt out of AI data is rejected. What? 7. Not Okay Taking Our Jobs. The question is, with or without replacement? 8. They Took Our Jobs Anyway. It's coming. 9. A New Leaderboard Appears. Scale.ai offers new capability evaluations. 10. Copyright Confrontation. Which OpenAI lawsuit was that again? 11. Deepfaketown and Botpocalypse Soon. Meta fails to make an ordinary effort. 12. Get Involved. Dwarkesh Patel is hiring. 13. Introducing. OpenAI makes media deals with The Atlantic and… Vox? Surprise. 14. In Other AI News. Jan Leike joins Anthropic, Altman signs giving pledge. 15. GPT-5 Alive. They are training it now. A security committee is assembling. 16. Quiet Speculations. Expectations of changes, great and small. 17. Open Versus Closed. Two opposing things cannot dominate the same space. 18. Your Kind of People. Verbal versus math versus otherwise in the AI age. 19. The Quest for Sane Regulation. Lina Khan on the warpath, Yang on the tax path. 20. Lawfare and Liability. How much work can tort law do for us? 21. SB 1047 Unconstitutional, Claims Paper. I believe that the paper is wrong. 22. The Week in Audio. Jeremie & Edouard Harris explain x-risk on Joe Rogan. 23. Rhetorical Innovation. Not everyone believes in GI. I typed what I typed. 24. Abridged Reports of Our Death. A frustrating interaction, virtue of silence. 25. Aligning a Smarter Than Human Intelligence is Difficult. You have to try. 26. People Are Worried About AI Killing Everyone. Yes, it is partly about money. 27. Other People Are Not As Worried About AI Killing Everyone. Assumptions. 28. The Lighter Side. Choose your fighter. Language Models Offer Mundane Utility Which model is the best right now? Michael Nielsen is gradually moving back to Claude Opus, and so am I. GPT-4o is fast and has some nice extra features, so when I figure it is 'smart enough' I will use it, but when I care most about quality and can wait a bit I increasingly go to Opus. Gemini I'm reserving for a few niche purposes, when I nee...

Have you felt overwhelmed by grief or been pressured to get over it quickly? In this episode, I talk with Dr. Elizabeth Butler about finding your way through grief as a sensitive person and: • The unexpected ways grief can show up such as irritability, anxiety, and anger • How community support and rituals can support you in your processing of grief • Grief shows up when you lose someone, but also when you go through other types of loss or life changes • Remembering to come back to yourself as you take care of others in shared grief experiences  • Listening to your emotions and carving out time to be with your sadness via nature, movement, crying, or other practices  Dr. Butler (they/them) is a psychologist and therapist who loves deep conversation, hiking, and crocheting tiny animals. They hold intense professional interests in breaking generational trauma, healing from eating disorders while learning to nourish oneself along the way, and fighting the stigma so many of us face in a society that often doesn't understand anyone who diverges from "the norm." After experiencing many sudden losses beginning at a young age, Dr. Butler is passionate about meeting the need for holding space for and validating grief - at work and far beyond. They are currently enrolled in IPI's intensive psychedelic-assisted therapy certification program, which fits perfectly with their practical yet spiritual approach to recovery.   Keep in touch with Elizabeth: • Website: https://prismapsychology.com/  • Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/prismapsychology   Resources Mentioned: • Elizabeth offers psychedelic integration services virtually for California residents.  Find more details at: https://prismapsychology.com • Beth Buelow's Podcast: https://bethbuelow.com/how-can-i-say-this-podcast/ • Dear Grief Guide Podcast by Shelby Forsythia: https://www.shelbyforsythia.com/dear-grief-guide-podcast  • The Mindfulness & Grief Podcast by Heather Stang: https://heatherstang.com/grief-podcast/  • Terrible, Thanks for Asking Podcast: https://ttfa.org/  • It's Okay You're Not Okay by Megan Devine: https://bookshop.org/a/63892/9781622039074 • Bearing the Unbearable by Joanne Cacciatore PhD: Thanks for listening!

They say that I am missing out on a lot of potentially great women by refusing to date ones with promiscuous pasts. Then they attempt to re-frame the discussion by rolling out the feminist narrative of promiscuous men who want virgin wives, while continuing to ignore my stated fact that I have held myself to my standard for a prospective spouse. I told one woman in a Christian social media group I'm a member of about the problem of born again Christian women who have had lots of cheap, fast, wild sexual encounters with guys whom they now call douche bags, and now insist on making a prospective Christian boyfriend remain celibate with them while courting to marriage, but the hypocrisy of these women and the horrible deal this is for the celibate Christian boyfriend didn't seem to register with her. Also, why do I keep running into Christian women who don't want kids, or only want to adopt kids, or already have kids, and get triggered and hate on me when I tell them I want to have my own biological kids when I get married? They say they're offended by men who “see women only as baby factories”, that if I am a Christian I should be happy to consider adoption or becoming a step-dad. It seems like there are quite a few women like this in churches today. Why are these women even Christian? Why can't they go form their own religion and church? This would un-muddy the waters; they can find their types of men in their own religion and I can be sure that women who advertise themselves as being “Christian” are in fact in alignment with my (Christian) religion's values? Thanks, and keep spitting those red pills! Well Mr. Black thanks for the donation and topic. Women that were once promiscuous and now in your church use the whole god forgives our trespasses so we should forgive the trespasses of others excuse to get men to accept them. They are chameleons looking for a high value man that can be with as many woman as he wants but only wants one because his religious beliefs keep him bound to just her so she doesn't have to worry nearly as much that he's going to cheat. Women use religion as a tool to get what they want. Why do you think Christianity became socially acceptable and why women embraced it 2000 years ago? Because it was a way to standardize male behavior. For them to potentially find and keep a man that doesn't know or understand his value in the sexual marketplace. Everything you're saying to these women does register with them Mr. Black. You're just not a simp like many of the other Christian guys that they are used to dealing with. Most Christian men are so wrapped up in converting others or focusing on their own sins that they don't focus on those of whamen around them. Even when most see them they do what JC would do which is forgive. Saving yourself for marriage keeps you thirsty and when you finally settle down with a woman and lose your virginity to her it's going to make you feel super guilty even thinking of leaving her. These so called Christian women you speak of want to ride the rooster rollercoaster and then when they are ready to settle down they still want a man that's not emotionally damaged and can easily bond with them even though they will probably never bond him because they've been riden more times than that pony that they bring out for that seven year olds' birthday party.

From shows like Emily in Paris and You to movies like Not Okay and Ingrid Goes West, influencers and content creators of all kinds have begun popping up more and more as they become a larger part of our everyday lives. And just like their real-life counterparts, these on-screen influencers can give us some pretty unrealistic ideas about what it's like to be a full time content creator. But sometimes they give us a more realistic, deeper look into the darker side of influencing that social media stars often try to hide… So, let's look at what the media constantly gets wrong about these careers and their associated finances, the ways all creators are portrayed as uber-wealthy, and why they still get so much hate.
