In this week's episode, both of our storytellers are pushed out of their comfort zones—and challenged to see the world through someone else's eyes.Part 1: As someone who always likes to play it safe, psychologist Kenneth Carter sets out to understand what makes thrill-seekers tick.

The psychology of thrill-seeking is the current focus of Dr. Carter's research. He has delivered TEDx talk on thrill-seekers and is the host of Mind of a Motorhead an NBC Sports web series that examines the personalities of motorsport athletes. His most recent book is Buzz!: Inside the Minds of Thrill-Seekers, Daredevils, and Adrenaline Junkies (Cambridge University Press).

In today's episode, the authors of two recently released nonfiction books search for meaning in art. First, Elizabeth Barks Cox's Reading Van Gogh: An Amateur's Search for God chronicles her infatuation with the painter's writings, especially those on spirituality. In today's episode, Cox joins Here & Now's Lisa Mullins for a conversation that touches on the artist's eye for beauty and despair – and why the author says she fell “a little bit in love with him.” Then, Harvard professor Imani Perry's book Black in Blues tells the story of Black history through the color blue. In today's episode, Perry speaks with Here & Now's Scott Tong about the many ways blue appears in African American culture, art and literature.To listen to Book of the Day sponsor-free and support NPR's book coverage, sign up for Book of the Day+ at plus.npr.org/bookofthedayLearn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy

Every year on his birthday, my dad and I sit down for a conversation. It started when he turned 76, and with a few exceptions, we've done it ever since - capturing an ongoing record of where his head and heart are at that particular moment. Over the years we've talked about music, memory, politics, travel, the craft of performing, and the art of living. These annual conversations have become a kind of time-lapse portrait: the same two people returning to the mic, but always a little changed. This year, as Ben turns 82, the theme that emerges is that he is “still auditioning for the role of myself.”  We talk about what it means to keep creating, to stay curious, and to hold on to your sense of fun as the outside world speeds up and your personal world contracts.  Ben is, as always, the consummate jazz philosopher. “History is what we make of it and what we live every day,” he tells me. “We're all feeling pain, and you can't deny it. [...] But the response to pain is something separate from the pain itself. And in that distance between the pain and the response to pain is where our work is.” He shares stories from his days hosting NPR's Jazz Alive and later Sidran on Record, explains how he came to be the first person to record Billy Joel's “New York State Of Mind,” reflects on maintaining the outsider's perspective, and weighs in on the latest curveball: AI-generated music.  If you've been following this series of birthday talks, then this is a great addition to the canon. If this is your first one, welcome - you're dropping into the middle of a conversation that's been going on for years, and will, I hope, keep going for many more. Ben's most recent album Are We There Yet (Live at the Sunside) was released earlier this summer.   www.leosidran.substack.com www.third-story.com www.wbgo.org/studios www.bensidran.com

Kate Marvel is a climate scientist who has testified before Congress and served as lead author of the U.S. National Climate Assessment. But in her new book Human Nature, she takes a different approach to climate change, exploring the crisis through nine emotions. In today's episode, the scientist and author speaks with NPR's Scott Simon about watching the world end through computer models, pushing back against emotional neutrality, and her book's chapter on pride.

La primera parte del programa de hoy la dedicaremos a discutir la actualidad. Comenzaremos con la muy esperada reunión entre los presidentes de Rusia y de Estados Unidos en Alaska. La reunión es mañana, pero todavía hay mucho de que hablar. ¿Está dejando Trump que Putin lo manipule… de nuevo? ¿Se arriesga Trump a ser el Neville Chamberlain por el Hitler de Putin? Después pasaremos al Medio Oriente. Ya hay 147 países que reconocen el Estado de Palestina. Pero este reconocimiento llega demasiado tarde. En el segmento de ciencia y tecnología del programa, discutiremos un estudio que advierte del alarmante aumento de los artículos falsos de investigación científica. Y concluiremos la primera parte del programa analizando una encuesta reciente de Gallup, que apunta a un aumento del bienestar a nivel global. Hay más gente que nunca que asegura estar prosperando en la vida. En los 142 países encuestados, el porcentaje de gente que asegura estar prosperando ha crecido de forma continua durante la última década, mientras que el porcentaje de quienes sufren ha bajado a solo un 7 por ciento. La segunda parte del episodio de hoy la dedicaremos a la lengua y la cultura españolas. La primera conversación incluirá ejemplos del tema de gramática de la semana, Other ways to Express Future. En esta conversación hablaremos de la historia de la migración en España y discutiremos qué ventajas tiene para el futuro del país. Y, en nuestra última conversación, aprenderemos a usar una nueva expresión española, Sin prisa, pero sin pausa. La usaremos para comprender cómo se hizo la Transición española. Es decir, el paso de la dictadura del General Franco a la democracia después de la muerte del dictador. Un cambio que, hoy en día, aún se discute si se hizo bien. ¿Recuerdan las negociaciones de Trump con Putin al pacto de Chamberlain con Hitler? Las intenciones recientes de reconocer Palestina se consideran insuficientes Un estudio estadístico advierte sobre la enorme cantidad de artículos falsos de investigación científica que se producen El bienestar global está aumentando, excepto en los países occidentales más ricos Envejecimiento de la población en Europa La Transición española

Gauging the economic impact as Canadian visitation to Vermont's Northeast Kingdom drops in response to president Trump's hostile rhetoric and tariffs. Plus, the UVM Medical Center will reduce the number of patients admitted for overnight care in a cost cutting move, there's a shortage of school counselors and psychologists in Vermont as public school students prepare to return to the classroom, an international graduate student at Dartmouth drops his lawsuit against the Trump administration after getting his legal status reinstated, and Vermont's Secretary of State says she will ignore any request from the Trump administration to share Vermont voters' personal information. 

Im ersten Teil unseres Programms geht es wie immer um aktuelle Ereignisse. Wir beginnen mit dem mit Spannung erwarteten Treffen zwischen dem russischen und dem US-amerikanischen Präsidenten in Alaska. Das Treffen findet erst morgen statt, aber schon jetzt gibt es viel darüber zu diskutieren. Lässt sich Trump – erneut – von Putin manipulieren? Riskiert Trump, der Neville Chamberlain zu Putins Hitler zu werden? Danach sprechen wir über den Nahen Osten. Bereits 147 Länder erkennen den Staat Palästina an. Diese Anerkennung ist jedoch nicht genug und kommt viel zu spät. In unserem Wissenschafts- und Technologie-Thema sprechen wir heute über eine Studie, die vor der alarmierenden Zunahme gefälschter wissenschaftlicher Forschungsarbeiten warnt. Und wir beenden den ersten Teil des Programms mit einer Analyse einer aktuellen Gallup-Umfrage, die einen weltweiten Anstieg des Wohlbefindens zeigt. Mehr Menschen als je zuvor sagen, dass sie ein erfülltes Leben haben. In 142 Ländern ist der Anteil der Menschen, die sagen, dass es ihnen gut geht, in den letzten zehn Jahren stetig gestiegen. Der Anteil derjenigen, die leiden, ist dagegen auf 7 Prozent gesunken. Der Rest des Programms ist der deutschen Sprache und Kultur gewidmet. Die heutige Grammatiklektion konzentriert sich auf den Subjunctive Mood (Konjunktiv 1), und es wird um den durchschnittlichen Deutschen gehen. Wir sprechen darüber, wie alt er ist, wie viel er verdient, wann er heiratet und wann er Kinder hat. Es gibt einige Unterschiede zwischen dem durchschnittlichen Mann und der durchschnittlichen Frau. Die deutsche Dating-Kultur ist das ideale Thema, um die Redewendung dieser Woche – Sich ein Herz fassen – zu erläutern. Wir sprechen darüber, wer wie oft welche Dating-App nutzt und wie erfolgreich das als Taktik ist. Dating-Apps haben in Deutschland einen riesigen Markt. Gibt es historische Parallelen zwischen Trumps Umgang mit Putin und Chamberlains Pakt mit Hitler? Neue Absichten zur Anerkennung Palästinas sind nicht ausreichend Statistische Studie warnt vor einer enormen Anzahl gefälschter wissenschaftlicher Forschungsarbeiten Das Wohlergehen steigt weltweit, außer in den wohlhabenderen westlichen Ländern Der Durchschnittsdeutsche Die deutsche Dating-Kultur

In economics, a market is a place (even virtual) where buyers and sellers meet to exchange goods or services. Economists love markets. It's like all of our supply and demand graphs have come to life. Almost everything you buy goes through some sort of marketplace—your cup of coffee came from trading in the bean markets. Your spouse might have come from the dating marketplace on the apps. Even kids will tell you one Snickers is worth at least two Twix.But sometimes, as we'll see today, markets can go terribly wrong; greed can run out of control; lives can be at risk. That's when the government often steps in and gives the market a little nudge to work better. Today's episode: Market Design.The series is hosted by Robert Smith and produced by Eric Mennel.

Neurotic, anxious robots like C-3P0 from Star Wars' C-3P0 and Marvin from The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy are a staple of science fiction — but they're not as common in the real world. Most of the time, the chatbots and artificial intelligence "robots" we encounter are programmed to be extraverted, confident and cheerful. But what if that changed?NPR science correspondent Nell Greenfieldboyce dives into the world of robot personality research and talks to a team of researchers that are experimenting with a very different kind of robot temperament.Read more of Nell's reporting on the topic here.Interested in more science news?

Not only is Trump succeeding, he is exceeding expectations as well. But the Left is not going down without a fight. Victor Davis Hanson explains the challenges being poised against Trump's counterrevolution, and what he believes are the next steps on today's episode of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words.” “ The symptoms of the progressive project are not just the Democrats exercising power in Congress or holding the White House, it's how they get that power. And they get that power through PBS and NPR, now defunded; cable news and slanted network news, now under assault when they lie and defame and face court ramifications. “ The majority of the American people oppose [Democrats'] agenda. And they do this through the bureaucracies, through the media, through the universities, through the popular culture. And these are the very sources that Donald Trump is asking them to reform. And the government is going to shrink. The government's gonna get out of the media business. The government's gonna take a hard look at universities, who want and obtain federal funds.”

In 2021, Jason Mott won the National Book Award for Hell of a Book. Now, he's out with a new novel called People Like Us, in which two Black writers navigate life in the United States in an era of gun violence. Mott says the book is loosely based on himself – and leans into the audience's tendency to conflate authors with the stories they write. In today's episode, Mott talks with NPR's Ayesha Rascoe about his personal relationships with American identity, guns, and fiction.To listen to Book of the Day sponsor-free and support NPR's book coverage, sign up for Book of the Day+ at plus.npr.org/bookofthedayLearn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy

Regeneration is a topic that divides people despite having good intentions at its core. But conservative regenerative farmer Mollie Engelhart does not rally on just one side of the aisle – she openly challenges dominant narratives and asks the difficult questions. She joins Corinna Bellizzi to look back on how she let go of her vegan diet to become an advocate for soil health, land stewardship, and political transformation. Delving into her personal experiences as a vegan restaurateur-turned-owner of the Sovereignty Ranch, Mollie emphasizes why saving the environment requires a strong coalition of left and right wings, stressing why such an issue must never be politicized. She also shares insights about what it takes to address the border issue, the challenges faced by undocumented communities, and how the regenerative movement must rethink how regulations are implemented.About Guest:Mollie Engelhart is the executive chef and founder of Sage Regenerative Kitchen in Los Angeles alongside her husband Elias as well as a leader in the Regenerative Agriculture movement with 200 acres at Sovereignty Ranch in the Texas Hill Country. Her mission is to produce healthy food from healthy soil for her communities. Mollie is the mother of five, a film producer, poet, and thought leader examining the connections of humanity, family, soil, food, and culture, constantly questioning “Where do we go from here?” She is passionate about health freedom, natural birth, breastfeeding, regenerative agriculture, community, and humanity's place in partnership with nature and God. As a self-proclaimed lifelong liberal, Mollie became confronted with the bureaucracy that destroyed her once thriving restaurants in Los Angeles during the pandemic. Mollie came to the conclusion that the democratic party did not center around family, God or freedom and now sees herself as a “radical centrist”. Since her revelations, Mollie has done many speaking events, giving testimony to how she became pro-life, the challenges of doing business in California, regenerative agriculture and the connection between soil and health. She regularly gets standing ovations and brings people to tears with her inspiring conversations. Mollie has been featured on podcasts, news outlets, public speaking engagements and more including; Texas State University, Epoch Times, Turning Point USA, Fox News, Bon Appetit, ABC News, NPR, Luke Storey, Max Lavine, Confluence and the Exit & Build Summit.Guest LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/mollie-engelhart-497385366/Guest Website: https://www.sovereigntyranch.com/Guest Social: https://www.youtube.com/@chefmolliehttps://www.instagram.com/talktomollie/?hl=enhttps://www.facebook.com/mollie.engelhartShow Notes: Raw video00:02:51 - From Leftist Vegan Chef To Conservative Regenerative Farmer00:12:25 - Balancing Personal Evolution And Public Scrutiny00:20:46 - Forming A Coalition From Both Sides00:29:23 - Why We Should Rethink Our Regulations00:33:27 - Addressing Chemical Pollution As Soon As Possible00:41:32 - Solving Issues On Border Security And Immigration00:56:02 - Not Shying Away From Difficult Conversations01:04:44 - Future Plans For The Sovereignty Ranch01:09:47 - Why We Are Meant To Eat Of Healthy Soil01:15:35 - Episode Wrap-up And Closing WordsJOIN OUR CIRCLE.

When Democrats have a problem such as laundering money, commiting crimes or other nefarious activities, the response is to launch investigations into Donald Trump. This pattern emerges with Hillary Clinton as a protection racket surrounded Hillary just as the FBI was called off from their criminal investigation of her and the Clinton Foundation. This lead to the Russian collusion hoax on Trump. When Joe Biden has a problem with Hunter Biden and his dealings in Ukraine, Democrats presented their first impeachment on President Trump. When Joe Biden has classified documents in his garage, they raided Mar a Lago. As the Russiagate hoax unravels even more, twenty whistleblowers have come forth confirming that Barack Obama, his chief of staff and CIA Director John Brennan created the false Russia hoax, doctored intelligence to overthrow the duly elected president of the United States in 2016. A former Democrat Intelligence Committee staffer turned whistleblower says that in 2017 Adam Schiff personally approved leaking classified information on Russia to smear Donald Trump. Even worse, Barack Obama gave an interview to NPR saying that Russia helped Donald Trump win the election before the CIA had even begun its report. Is this the smoking gun on Obama's treason? Investigative reporter John Solomon is back today with a bombshell, Solomon reports that in the coming days Kash Patel and the FBI will be able to name names on what government officials were protecting Hillary Clinton and her foundation as the FBI has reason to believe the Clinton Foundation was a back door for corruption. Most importantly, can Kash Patel and the FBI along with Pam Bondi and the Trump DOJ navigate these waters efficiently to tie 2016 Russia hoax to 2024 Trump lawfare and successfully execute the grand conspiracy case so that history doesn't repeat itself?

In this episode, I talk with Sarah K. Grace — an extraordinary healer, author, and intuitive whose life has been a remarkable bridge between the worlds of science, service, and the unseen. For over fifteen years, Sarah worked as a paramedic in some of the busiest emergency systems in California, operating in the heart of life-and-death situations… all while quietly carrying a profound psychic sensitivity that allowed her to perceive and interact with energies far beyond the physical.Her journey is one of courage and transformation, learning to channel her heightened awareness into helping others navigate trauma, reclaim their strength, and reconnect to the deep well of healing within themselves. Sarah's work carries a powerful message: that sensitivity isn't a burden, it's a superpower. When embraced and cultivated, it becomes a source of insight, resilience, and deep connection — a gift that can transform not only your own life, but the lives of those around you.Today, she brings her hard-earned wisdom to the world through her private healing practice, her writing, and her teaching, guiding empaths, sensitives, and seekers toward living empowered, balanced, and vibrant lives. Together, we explore her incredible path from the sirens and chaos of emergency response to the grounded, heart-centered space where intuition and compassion meet. We talk about the power of embracing sensitivity as a gift, the ways unseen energies influence our well-being, how each of us can step into a more conscious, aligned way of being, and so much more.www.sarahkgrace.comSarah K Grace Bio:Sarah K. Grace is a powerful and dynamic individual who spent fifteen years merging her career as a paramedic in some of California's busiest 911 systems with her innate clairvoyant & intuitive abilities. Able to see, hear, and feel energy outside the normal senses since the age of seven, Sarah overcame great adversity and addiction in her early life as a result of physical abuse and poor family dynamics. After many years of struggle she ultimately turned her trauma into wisdom by healing herself and then using her psychic abilities in critical 911 settings to help thousands of patients deal with life and death emergencies. Sarah is now a best-selling author, speaker and sought-after intuitive healer who has appeared on Gaia TV, Hay House Radio, Coast 2 Coast, NPR, New Living Expo & more.

Send us a textA conversation unlike any other unfolds as Elena Box invites her alter-ego Tabitha Crain—a former NPR correspondent with a BA in performance art and global economics—to interview her about resilience. The result is a profound, often humorous exploration of how we build strength through life's initiations.The dialogue begins with Elena's earliest memory of resilience: a childhood playground moment that taught her about her inner magic and power. Through Tabitha's theatrical questioning, Elena shares the extraordinary experience of her father's passing, including a transcendent moment when golden light filled her room after his death—a sign that "he had made it and was sending a message to let me know all is well."At the heart of this episode lies Elena's philosophy of holding "the sacred in one hand and the silly in the other," as she explains how levity serves as a lifeline during our darkest moments. This approach has shaped her work as a death doula and now informs her newest initiation: motherhood.With remarkable candor, Elena discusses the gap between her expectations and reality as a new mother, despite her extensive preparation. "Our culture still doesn't know what proper support looks like," she reveals, detailing her mission to rebuild the village through women's circles like "The Mother's Well" at her ritual studio. Drawing inspiration from wisdom keepers like Jane Hardwick Collings and Sister Morningstar, Elena advocates for reclaiming meaningful rites of passage around birth, death, and transformation.Throughout this intimate conversation, Elena and Tabitha weave together spirituality, humor, and practical wisdom about building resilience. Whether you're navigating grief, embracing a new chapter, or simply seeking connection in an increasingly isolated world, this episode offers a refreshing perspective on finding strength through community and self-trust.Listen, reflect, and perhaps discover your own unique path to resilience. As Tabitha reminds us: "The more you trust yourself and your path and your gnosis, the more the world becomes whole."Support the showBuy your copy of Elena's book "Grieve Outside the Box"Follow on IG @elenabox

A Chinese scientist, He Jiankui, made a shocking announcement to the world in 2018: He had secretly engineered the birth of the first gene-edited babies. The birth of the twins was seen as reckless and unethical by the scientific community. That's because, among other things, the CRISPR gene-editing technique Jiankui used was so new. NPR science correspondent Rob Stein has been following the controversial world of gene-editing and human reproduction, including some companies' recent quests to push gene-editing technology forward.Read more of Rob Stein's reporting on the topic here.Interested in more science news?

They've been close for so long they feel like brothers, with all of the baggage that comes with family but none of the certainty. There are things that go unspoken between them, issues they have skimmed over in their two decades of friendship. Esther creates the space for the conversation they didn't know quite where to begin.

How did life start on Earth? The answer is a big scientific mystery scientists are actively investigating. After talking with many scientists, host Regina G. Barber found that an abundance of water on Earth is most likely key, in some way, to the origin of life — specifically, in either deep sea hydrothermal vents or in tide pools. It's for this reason some scientists are also exploring the potential for life in so-called "water worlds" elsewhere in the solar system, like some of the moons of Jupiter and Saturn. This episode, Regina digs into two water-related hypotheses for the origin on life on Earth — and what that might mean for possible alien life.Have another scientific mystery you want us to cover on a future episode?

Dr. Rick and Forrest explore the evolution of psychoanalysis after Freud, highlighting key ideas from figures like Adler, Klein, Winnicott, and Hillman. They track how the field expanded from focusing on the individual ego all the way out to exploring the existential forces that shape who we are. They focus on what lessons we can take away from each of these influential thinkers into our everyday lives. Topics include inferiority complexes, defense mechanisms, object relations, authentic vs. false self, developmental psychology, adaptation, and our confrontation with life's ultimate concerns like death and meaninglessness. Key Topics: 0:00: Introduction 4:20: Alfred Adler: Inferiority, contribution, and healthy striving 14:05: Anna Freud: Ego defenses and real-time coping 20:09: Erik Erikson: Lifespan development and identity crises 33:20: Melanie Klein: Object relations, splitting, and managing complexity 46:46: Donald Winnicott: True self, good-enough parenting, and holding environments 51:09: Heinz Kohut: Self-psychology, mirroring, and healthy narcissism 1:02:32: Wilhelm Reich: Somatic therapy and character armor 1:08:25: Neo-Jungians: Archetypes, imagination, and symbolic mind 1:18:18: Irvin Yalom: Existential psychotherapy and meaning-making 1:26:50: Recap  Support the Podcast: We're now on Patreon!

Hillsdale College Radio General Manager and Radio Free Hillsdale Hour host Scot Bertram fills in for Jim on Thursday's 3 Martini Lunch. Join Scot and Greg as they thoroughly enjoy the left's hypocrisy and letting the truth slip over the redistricting fight. They also react to President Trump placing the DC police under federal control and the left trying to regain control over news narratives through the attention extraction tax.First, they dismantle the blatant hypocrisy of New York Gov. Kathy Hochul and Illinois Gov. J.B. Pritzker as they refuse to acknowledge their own aggressive gerrymandering. Scot and Greg also highlight former Rep. Beto O'Rourke openly admitting the fight is about raw political power, and former Attorney General Eric Holder urging Democrats to weaponize redistricting in blue states, seizing power under the guise of “saving democracy” before supposedly ending the practice altogether.Next, they react to President Trump placing the Washington, D.C, police under federal control, citing a state of emergency over crime. Greg is torn over this because he does not like the idea of the federal government taking more control over things but he also admits the DC government has been both unable and unwilling to get serious about fighting crime.  Scot says people have said for decades that something needs to be done about crime in D.C. and Trump is finally doing something about it.Finally, they laugh at a Boston Globe column bemoaning the end of taxpayer funding for PBS and NPR and calling for a new online entity that people can go to for factual information about prominent political and policy issues. In short, it's just another avenue for the left to regain the power to shape news narratives. And this would all be paid for by the Orwellian "Attention Extraction Tax."Please visit our great sponsors:Sleep on an award-winning mattress from Brooklyn Bedding.

After President Trump fired the head of the Bureau of Labor Statistics, economists and statisticians across the board were horrified. Because the firing raises the spectre of potential manipulation – and it raises the worry that, in the future, the numbers won't be as trustworthy.So: we looked at two countries that have some experience with data manipulation. To ask what happens when governments get tempted to cook the books. And...once they cook the books... how hard is it to UN-cook them?It's two statistical historical cautionary tales. First, we learn how Argentina tried to mask its true inflation rate, and how that effort backfired. Then, we hear about the difficult process of cleaning up the post-cooked-book mess, in Greece.
