This episode began as an investigation into Sigmund Freud, Edward Bernays, propaganda, psychoanalysis, and the hidden machinery through which modern perception management came to be. But somewhere along the way, it became something much more personal. In Starlight Sickness, Kelly traces the strange lineage between Freud's abandonment of the seduction theory, Bernays's engineering of consent, and the ways power moves harm out of view by relocating it into the minds of the harmed. From the origins of modern public relations to the hall of mirrors inside ufology, this episode asks what happens when the tools we use to interpret reality also become the tools used to obscure it. How do we practice discernment without losing trust in our own perception? How do we make room for complexity without allowing complexity to become fog? And what does accountability look like when the story you were living inside begins to collapse? In light of recent allegations against her former best friend and creative partner Jay Christopher King, Kelly turns the same questions back on herself, beginning the process of untangling what happened, what she believed, what she may have gotten wrong, and what this community is owed now. This is an episode about gaslighting, trauma, consent engineering, ufology, and the terrifying difficulty of finding solid ground in a world built to manage perception. Topics explored: Sigmund Freud | Edward Bernays | propaganda | psychoanalysis | gaslighting | consent engineering | perception management | public relations | the unconscious | repression | seduction theory | the Oedipus complex | Jeffrey Masson | Freud Archives | Emma Eckstein | Wilhelm Fliess | institutional betrayal | therapeutic language | expert authority | trauma | memory | interpretation | accountability | narrative control | invisible government | torches of freedom | United Fruit Company | Guatemala coup | ufology | experiencer communities | anomalous experience | sexual trauma | abduction narratives | vulnerability and power | Jay Christopher King | The Experiencer Group | spiritual abuse | trust and betrayal | epistemic instability | discernment | reality testing | | truth and coherence | symbols and meaning | systems of control | manufactured consent | moral injury | the hall of mirrors Referenced in this Episode: Addressing the Allegations Against My Former Creative Partner, Jay Christopher King Starlight Sickness — Helico Tele Propaganda — Edward Bernays (1928) The Engineering of Consent — Edward Bernays (1947) The Aetiology of Hysteria — Sigmund Freud (1896) The Interpretation of Dreams — Sigmund Freud (1900) Three Essays on the Theory of Sexuality — Sigmund Freud (1905) The Assault on Truth: Freud's Suppression of the Seduction Theory — Jeffrey Masson (1984) Sigmund Freud and the Jewish Mystical Tradition — David Bakan (1958) Trust Me, I'm Lying: Confessions of a Media Manipulator — Ryan Holiday (2012) I Hope They Serve Beer in Hell — Tucker Max (2006) Support The Show Patreon: inquirywithkellychase.comSubstack: inquirywithkellychase.substack.com Connect with Kelly Website: kellychase.mediaX: @kellychasemediaInstagram: @kellychasemedia TIMESTAMPS 05:27 Propaganda and The True Ruling Power 09:20 Freudian Ick10:58 Jeffrey Masson, Heretic 13:18 Sigmund Freud and The Source of the Nile 17:49 Wilhelm Fliess, A Passionate Friendship 19:55 Emma Eckstein and The Stronger Sex 22:06 A Little Sleight of Hand24:21 The Oedipus Complex and The Nucleus of Neuroses 32:02 The Baby and the Bathwater 33:21 Trust the Experts 34:44 You Can't Do Anything With This Information 37:54 The Torches of Freedom 40:31 The Coup 43:11 A Koan 48:15 The Abstract Becomes Horrifyingly Personal 52:21 Responding to Jay Christopher King's Statement 01:01:03 Fall 2023 01:05:21 The Epistemic Black Boxes of Ufology Learn more about your ad choices.

BONUS S6E8 A Zebra ZONE 2026 recap on pragmatic AI, on-device AI, super apps, and giving store associates their day backRicardo Belmar just got back from Zebra Technologies' ZONE 2026 conference in Nashville, where pragmatic AI was the main theme. In this special bonus episode of The Retail Razor Show, he and Casey Golden unpack what it all means for retail's frontline workers. This is a story about pragmatic AI, the kind that gives store associates and warehouse teams their day back instead of promising the moon.The headline from ZONE 2026? Zebra is no longer telling a devices story. It's telling a frontline platform story, anchored by on-device AI that runs with no cloud, no tokens, and no waiting. Ricardo brought back two exclusive interviews, with Zebra CTO Tom Bianculli and Mobile Computing chief James Poulton, plus a notebook full of stats, demos, and hallway conversations that deliver the full pragmatic AI story.We get into why frontline workers are drowning in 70 to 80 apps when they only use about a dozen, the super app built to fix it, real-time translation running live on a device, and why “tokenless” pragmatic AI became the word of the week. If you want to understand on-device AI and what it delivers for frontline workers, this episode is your shortcut.In This Episode, You'll Learn•     Zebra's three big software announcements: Nucleus, Workcloud IO, and Workcloud BI•     The 80-apps problem and the super app designed to collapse it down to one experience•     Why on-device AI, tokenless and at the edge, beats cloud round trips for frontline use cases•     Real-time translation in any language, live on the device•     Micro-learning, the “TikTok of learning,” and tackling 70 to 80% frontline turnover•     Picture proof of delivery: how a second and a half scales into tens of millions of dollars•     The octopus organization, and why intelligence belongs at the edge of the org•     James Poulton on why large language models are overhyped for the enterpriseWhy it mattersWe've spent years on this show arguing that your associate experience is your customer experience. ZONE 2026 felt like the technology industry finally catching up to that idea, treating frontline workers as the most under-invested asset in retail and giving them on-device AI that augments rather than replaces. Pragmatic AI wins on the accumulation of small moments, and that is the thread we pull all episode long.Subscribe & FollowIf you enjoyed this episode, please leave us a 5‑star rating and review on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or Goodpods. Subscribe on YouTube so you never miss an episode and check out the other shows in the Retail Razor Podcast Network: Retail Transformers, Blade to Greatness, and Data Blades.Subscribe to the Retail Razor Podcast Network: https://retailrazor.com/Subscribe to our Newsletter: https://retailrazor.substack.comSubscribe to our YouTube channel: https://go.retailrazor.com/utubeFeatured guestsTom Bianculli, Chief Technology Officer, Zebra Technologieshttps://www.linkedin.com/in/tom-bianculli-9053892/James Poulton, SVP & GM, Mobile Computing, Zebra Technologieshttps://www.linkedin.com/in/jamespoulton/Chapters00:00 Teaser01:01 Show intro02:12 What Zebra announced at ZONE 202604:00 The 80-apps problem and the super app06:53 Real-time translation on the device08:55 Tokenless, on-device AI explained11:46 Best moment: the octopus organization15:43 Interview: Tom Bianculli, CTO Zebra Technologies35:50 Recap: pragmatic AI and returning time to workers40:27 Interview: James Poulton, SVP & GM Mobile Computing53:21 Big takeaways from ZONE 202659:32 Show CloseMeet your hostsHelping you cut through the clutter in retail & retail tech:Ricardo Belmar is an NRF Top Retail Voice for 2025 and a RETHINK Retail Top Retail Expert from 2021 – 2026. Thinkers 360 has named him a Top 10 Thought Leader in Retail, a Top 25 Thought Leader in AGI and Careers, a Top 50 Thought Leader in Agentic AIand Management, and a Top 100 Thought Leader in Digital Transformation and Transformation. Thinkers 360 also named him a Top Digital Voice for 2024 and 2025. He is an advisory council member at George Mason University's Center for Retail Transformationand the Retail Cloud Alliance.

The Nucleus LINK is used by more World Brewers Cup and World Barista Championship competitors than any other roasting machine. In this 65-minute webinar, Jerome Rosler and Sam Corra from Nucleus Coffee Tools walk through the exact roast profiles, competition case studies, and setup decisions that have taken athletes to the top of the podium — and answer your questions live.What you'll learn in this episode:— How the Brewers Cup score sheet works: aroma, flavor, aftertaste, acidity, sweetness, and mouthfeel — and which profile attributes move each score— Four real competition case studies with actual roast curves: Eileen, June, Justin, and Een (including a rare Eugenioides roasted at Singapore National Brewers Cup)— How to match the right Nucleus LINK profile to the cup attribute you want to maximize— The full story behind the Addis profile pack: from the 2021 World Championship foundations to Addis 4.1.2, the current release— How Jerome Rosler built the WBRC 2024 profile that helped Martin Wölfl win the World Brewers Cup— What Omni profiles are and how DTR lets you adapt a single coffee to any brew method— How to pack, seal, and travel with roasted competition coffee without killing your degassing curveWhat the experts say — key facts from this episode:Which Nucleus LINK profile works best for highly aromatic and fermented coffees?Filter E. Short total roast time (6:40–7 min), fast drying phase, development at 8.5–9% DTR over 30–40 seconds. Designed to highlight fruit-forward aromatics without amplifying heavy fermentation notes.How was Martin Wölfl's 2024 World Brewers Cup profile built?Based on filter C from the Addis 3.0 pack. Jerome Rosler shifted first crack 5 seconds earlier, raised the temperature increase rate from 6°/min to 7°/min, and shortened development to push solubility — the key variable for Wölfl's winning cup.What is the Nucleus LINK Addis profile pack?Addis is the current Nucleus LINK profile system. Named after the 2021 World Barista Championship host city, it has evolved across four versions: Addis 2.0 introduced filter profiles built around Nicole Battefeld-Montgomery's 2022 Worlds approach; Addis 3.0 refined filter C for Martin Wölfl's 2024 WBRC win; Addis 4.1.2 — the current version — adds espresso and Omni profiles for full brew-method coverage. Previous versions were also shaped by input from Sasa Sestic and Agnieszka Rojewska.How do Omni profiles work on the Nucleus LINK?Omni profiles use DTR (development time ratio) as the single adjustable variable, allowing the same coffee to be adapted across brew methods — from espresso to filter to cupping. Built to make washed and unconventional varieties competitive without needing separate profiles for each method.Where can you buy the Nucleus LINK in Europe and get profile support?Roast Rebels is Europe's authorized Nucleus Coffee Tools distributor and most experienced service center, with locations in Germany and Switzerland.

It's that time of year as beekeepers that we find out how we did — how we did all the way back to the summer before. Some years it can be a tough report-card to get! As all things in bees there are many ways to understand what happened. The good news even if it was a bad year is this: we can do better in the coming season. In this episode I encourage you to do just that, while also acknowledging its really really hard to lose any of our colonies. But there's no way to be a beekeeper without losing hives sooner or later. If we truly learn from the losses, it can turn into beekeeping skills that help keep more colonies alive. Things mentioned in the episode: Ep 150: Lifecycle of the Bees (and beekeeper) - a storytelling of the yearly cycle the bees circle through and how the beekeeper interacts. Please share with friends and family who want to understand what you and your bees are doing as well as with new beekeepers who need this grounding to start learning about bees. Ep 149: Starting with a Nucleus Colony, for Newbees A guide with tips for someone starting for the first time (or starting again) with Nucleus colonies. Supporting Patrons have access to an 11 page PDF with more content and hints on how to give your nuc the best start. Note: you may need to log into Patreon so the PDF attachment will show at the bottom of the post. The New Hampshire Dead Out Checklist: Even if you don't live in NH, this checklist is VERY thorough on the kind of info you can collect from your deadout. It's a great model imo for other clubs to track what their members are seeing in lost hives to see if there are patterns. Maine Beekeepers share this article on things to look for in an autopsy. Once you have gathered info from these checklists, it's a great time to discuss with your mentor or with an experienced and successful* beekeeper at your next club meeting. *in this case, I mean successful at reliably keeping their bees alive over winter Wishing you all the very best, no matter what you found or find in your bee yard coming out of winter. No matter what, if you love working with bees: Don't quit!! As a speaker told our group one time: FAIL stands for First Attempt in Learning. Hang in there! A special thanks to all the supporting patrons who keep this podcast going!! And thanks to all of you who take the time to share the podcast with your beekeeping friends and associations.
