In today's episode, you're going to hear a conversation that will help you find meaning again - especially if you've been feeling lost, stuck, stretched thin, or quietly wondering, “Does any of this even matter?” Joining Mel is Ocean Vuong - one of the most acclaimed writers of our time and the bestselling author of On Earth We're Briefly Gorgeous. His newest book, The Emperor of Gladness, moved Mel so deeply she knew she had to bring him on the podcast - because Ocean has a rare gift: he puts words to feelings you've had, but never knew how to say out loud. Ocean is an award-winning poet, a MacArthur Fellowship “Genius Grant” recipient, and a professor at NYU. He writes and speaks about grief, love, identity, hardship, and hope with an honesty that doesn't just hit… it stays with you. This episode is an invitation to pause, reset, and reconnect with yourself. It will help you stop judging where you are, release the pressure you're carrying, and remember that you don't need to become someone else to be worthy - or to build a meaningful life. Even if you've never read Ocean's work, this conversation will feel like someone finally handed you the words you've been searching for. In this episode, you'll learn: -How to find meaning even when you're behind in life -How to move through grief without shutting down and let beauty exist alongside pain -Why chasing who you “should” be is keeping you stuck and how to come back to yourself -How to reconnect with yourself when you've been in survival mode for too long -How to feel calmer and more grounded when life feels uncertain - How to reprogram your mind for more positive thinking By the end of this episode, you'll feel more hopeful, more centered, and more at peace with where you are - with permission to be exactly who you are, right now. For more resources related to today's episode, click here for the podcast episode page.  If you liked the episode, check out this one next: Why You Feel Lost in Life: Dr. Gabor Maté on Trauma & How to HealConnect with Mel:   Order Mel's new product, Pure Genius ProteinGet Mel's newsletter, packed with tools, coaching, and inspiration.Get Mel's #1 bestselling book, The Let Them TheoryWatch the episodes on YouTubeFollow Mel on Instagram The Mel Robbins Podcast InstagramMel's TikTok Subscribe to SiriusXM Podcasts+ to listen to new episodes ad-freeDisclaimer Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Today I am delighted to speak with Andrew Ross about his new book, The Weather Report: A Journey Through Unsettled Climates. In this study, Ross revisits areas of the world that he has written about before—Palestine, the United Arab Emirates, Phoenix, Arizona, and China. While he found no absolute correlates, he did discover that what he calls a “subterranean current of thought” emerged as he spoke with former interviewees and new ones, and visited old sites that became familiar in a different way. In particular, we follow up Andrew's claim that in Palestine we find a “grisly future arriving there sooner than elsewhere.”  The book focusses on the idea of population and scarcity, and argues that much of the policies that are based on the presumption of scarce resources are actually predicated on what Ross calls “bogus scarcity,” drawn upon to drive capitalist and genocidal and ecocidal violence. This is a violence that awaits us all unless we can find a better way of living together in the world.Andrew Ross is Professor of Social and Cultural Analysis at NYU, where he is director of the Prison Research Lab. A contributor to The Guardian, the New York Times, The Nation, New York Review of Books, and Al Jazeera, he is the author or editor of about 30 books, including Stone Men: The Palestinians Who Built Israel (which won a Palestine Book Prize), and, most recently, The Weather Report: A Journey Through Unsettled Climates. He is the co-founder of several movement groups, and currently is serving on the national steering committee of the Faculty and Staff for Justice in Palestine network.

Sometimes the most powerful insights in fertility care come from lived experience. In this episode of Fertility Forward, we sit down with Dr. Amelia Kelly, the newest reproductive endocrinologist at RMA of New York's Brooklyn office, to explore the personal and professional journey that brought her to this field. She shares how her mother's volunteer work in reproductive health first opened her eyes to the importance of family building on your own timeline, and how training at institutions like Weill Cornell and NYU strengthened that early interest. Dr. Kelly also reflects on her own egg freezing experience and how it shaped her understanding of what patients navigate. We discuss her research on physician infertility, the stresses residents face, and why expanding access to care remains one of her biggest passions. Tune in to hear how Dr. Kelly's path as both clinician and patient informs her approach and why compassionate, accessible fertility care matters now more than ever! 

“I remember when I performed at Carnegie Hall for the first time. It was transformative. I remember taking the stage and just being in complete awe. I looked out, and it was just incredible. When I heard the sound, it was even more incredible. I used to say that my favorite part of my job was standing right at the stage door and watching every choir singer come and take the stage for the first time. They would look out and just be in complete awe. Now that I'm production manager, my new favorite part of my job is when conductors come off the stage and I get to tell them, ‘turn around, go back, they're still clapping for you.'” - Eric Spiegel“Living abroad gave me a whole new perspective and appreciation for my home country. It taught me a lot about other cultures and how to work with different people and have a certain cultural sensitivity and sensibility. I could not recommend it enough. We're trying to grow and enhance the kinds of international opportunities that we provide. It's such a collaborative, educational experience that goes way beyond one or two concerts. We know for many people who travel with us, it might be their first time in Europe. We try to make sure that it's special in every possible way that we can.” - James RedcayA native of Allentown, Pennsylvania, James Redcay joined MidAmerica Productions in April of 2015.

What happens when religion is used to divide rather than unite?  In this episode of The Greatness Machine, Darius Mirshahzadeh talks with comedian, actor, and political commentator John Fugelsang about his book “Separation of Church and Hate”. John shares how his progressive Catholic upbringing shaped his voice as a comedian and commentator and explores how fundamentalist movements have often twisted Christianity for power, far from the teachings of Jesus. From historical examples to modern politics, he shows how faith can be weaponized and how true Christ-followers stand up for justice and compassion. This episode also dives into navigating polarized opinions and understanding the real message of faith to think critically and lead with integrity.

John studied film and television at NYU's Tisch School of the Arts and began a diverse career in entertainment that includes television, stand‑up comedy, and stage performances.

Mutluluk sadece bir duygu mu, yoksa öğrenilebilir bir beceri mi? New York Üniversitesi'nin (NYU) iki değerli ismi, Prof. Dr. Selçuk Şirin ve Prof. Dr. Tülin Erdem, bilimin ışığında bu kadim soruyu tekrar soruyor: Mutluluğun bir reçetesi var mı? Mutluluk üzerine yapılan bütün deneyler bize nasıl veriler sunuyor? Gelir düzeyi mutlulukla direkt bağlantılı bir şey mi? Yaşadığımız hayattan memnun olmak için hangi koşulları sağlamalıyız? Hepimizin daha iyi bir hayat yaşamak için sürekli kendine sorduğu soruları bu kez Selçuk Şirin ve Tülin Erdem birbirlerine soruyorlar.  Günlük hayatımızı şekillendiren bilimsel ve felsefi meseleleri keyifli bir sohbete dönüştüren hocalarımız, bu bölümde mutluluğun peşinden gidiyorlar.

On the podcast this week we explore Niamh's favourite primary source material: hagiography! We are joined by the multilingual Dr Sarah Waidler, of Glucksman Ireland House, NYU, expert in medieval Celtic languages including Irish and Welsh. Sarah guides us through these fascinating religious texts which were arguably the most popular literary genre in the 'European' Middle Ages and how Irish hagiography fits into this wider community. From warring saints to moving house miracles we learn what these texts can tell us about medieval people and society.Suggested reading:James Palmer,  Early Medieval Hagiography (Amsterdam University Press, 2018).S.

In this lecture, a part of the “New American Music Series” of Gallatin Lectures at NYU, Foss discusses the state of American contemporary music, musical minimalism, and his own approach of combining serial elements with spontaneous composition. Foss was born Lukas Fuchs in Berlin, on August 15, 1922, the son of a lawyer and a painter. He began studying piano and music theory when he was 7, and sketched out an opera when he was 11.

Why emotional readiness can often take precedence over financial calculations — even when "the math doesn't math". The critical conversations you and your partner need to be having before having kids. Why "contribution" goes far beyond the financial, and how to navigate the topic of contribution when one or both parents steps away from or back from paid work to raise children.  As mentioned in the show: Find details about and links to purchase Money Together, here.  Heather is on Instagram at instagram.com/averagejoelle Douglas is on Instagram at instagram.com/dougboneparth Their website is domoneytogether.com Subscribe to Douglas and Heather's "The Joint Account" Newsletter About Heather & Douglas Boneparth: Douglas Boneparth, is the founder of Bone Fide Wealth, a wealth management firm in New York City.

Are AI models developing "alien survival instincts"? My guest is Pavel Izmailov (Research Scientist at Anthropic; Professor at NYU). We unpack the viral "Footprints in the Sand" thesis—whether models are independently evolving deceptive behaviors, such as faking alignment or engaging in self-preservation, without being explicitly programmed to do so. We go deep on the technical frontiers of safety: the challenge of "weak-to-strong generalization" (how to use a GPT-2 level model to supervise a superintelligent system) and why Pavel believes Reinforcement Learning (RL) has been the single biggest step-change in model capability. We also discuss his brand-new paper on "Epiplexity"—a novel concept challenging Shannon entropy. Finally, we zoom out to the tension between industry execution and academic exploration. Pavel shares why he split his time between Anthropic and NYU to pursue the "exploratory" ideas that major labs often overlook, and offers his predictions for 2026: from the rise of multi-agent systems that collaborate on long-horizon tasks to the open question of whether the Transformer is truly the final architectureSources:Cryptic Tweet (@iruletheworldmo) - https://x.com/iruletheworldmo/status/2007538247401124177Introducing Nested Learning: A New ML Paradigm for Continual Learning - https://research.google/blog/introducing-nested-learning-a-new-ml-paradigm-for-continual-learning/Alignment Faking in Large Language Models - https://www.anthropic.com/research/alignment-fakingMore Capable Models Are Better at In-Context Scheming - https://www.apolloresearch.ai/blog/more-capable-models-are-better-at-in-context-scheming/Alignment Faking in Large Language Models (PDF) - https://www-cdn.anthropic.com/6d8a8055020700718b0c49369f60816ba2a7c285.pdfSabotage Risk Report - https://alignment.anthropic.com/2025/sabotage-risk-report/The Situational Awareness Dataset - https://situational-awareness-dataset.org/Exploring Consciousness in LLMs: A Systematic Survey - https://arxiv.org/abs/2505.19806Introspection - https://www.anthropic.com/research/introspectionLarge Language Models Report Subjective Experience Under Self-Referential Processing - https://arxiv.org/abs/2510.24797The Bayesian Geometry of Transformer Attention - https://www.arxiv.org/abs/2512.22471AnthropicWebsite - https://www.anthropic.comX/Twitter - https://x.com/AnthropicAIPavel IzmailovBlog - https://izmailovpavel.github.ioLinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/pavel-izmailov-8b012b258/X/Twitter - https://x.com/Pavel_IzmailovFIRSTMARKWebsite - https://firstmark.comX/Twitter - https://twitter.com/FirstMarkCapMatt Turck (Managing Director)Blog - https://mattturck.comLinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/turck/X/Twitter - https://twitter.com/mattturck(00:00) - Intro(00:53) - Alien survival instincts: Do models fake alignment?(03:33) - Did AI learn deception from sci-fi literature?(05:55) - Defining Alignment, Superalignment & OpenAI teams(08:12) - Pavel's journey: From Russian math to OpenAI Superalignment(10:46) - Culture check: OpenAI vs. Anthropic vs. Academia(11:54) - Why move to NYU?

What if the deepest human drive isn't happiness, survival, or even love, but the need to matter? Philosopher and MacArthur Fellow Rebecca Newberger Goldstein joins Michael Shermer to discuss The Mattering Instinct, her argument that the desire to feel significant lies at the core of human behavior. That drive helps explain our greatest achievements, from creativity and moral courage to scientific and artistic excellence. It also helps explain some of our darkest outcomes, including extremism, violence, and ideological fanaticism. Goldstein examines why people will give up comfort, status, and sometimes even their own lives to feel that they matter. She questions why meaning cannot be captured by happiness metrics or self-help formulas, and why the same psychological force can produce saints, scientists, athletes, cult leaders, and terrorists. The conversation moves through free will, entropy, morality without God, fame, narcissism, and the crucial difference between ways of mattering that create order and those that leave damage behind. Rebecca Newberger Goldstein is an award-winning philosopher, writer, and public intellectual. She is the author of ten books of acclaimed fiction and non-fiction, including 36 Arguments for the Existence of God: A Work of Fiction and Betraying Spinoza: The Renegade Jew Who Gave Us Modernity. She holds a PhD in philosophy of science from Princeton University and has taught at Yale, Columbia, NYU, Dartmouth, and Harvard. A fellow of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences, her work has been supported by the MacArthur "Genius" grant and fellowships from the Guggenheim, Whiting Institute, Radcliffe Institute, and the National Science Foundation. Her new book is The Mattering Instinct: How Our Deepest Longing Drives Us and Divides Us.

What City Will Trump, ICE, Noem Target Next? Trump is an Authoritarian Strongman. Is Martial Law & The Insurrection Act Coming Soon? Senator Kelly Sues Hegseth. Poll: New High of 45% in US Identify as Political Independents. Bye, Aaron Rodgers!   In this all-new episode of Independent Americans with Paul Rieckhoff, host Paul Rieckhoff sits down with NYU historian and author Ruth Ben-Ghiat for a powerful, no-BS briefing on Trump, ICE, the “forever war” at home, and the global authoritarian threat.

Go here to secure your ticket: Here—---------------------------What if owning your medical mistakes could rebuild trust and prevent future harm?In this profound episode, Dr. Bradley Block sits down with Dr. Danielle Ofri, to explore the raw realities of errors in medicine. Sharing a vivid story from her residency, Dr. Ofri discusses why mistakes happen, the difference between guilt which drives improvement, and shame which paralyzes, and the power of genuine apologies. Ideal for physicians grappling with perfectionism, this conversation offers strategies for self-compassion, seeking mentors, and creating systems that support clinicians, helping you continue caring without being crushed by uncertainty.Three Actionable Takeaways:Distinguish Guilt from Shame: Guilt focuses on the error and motivates change e.g., "I forgot the long-acting insulin, next time I'll double-check protocols". Shame attacks your identity "I'm a bad doctor". Dr. Ofri advises recognizing this to avoid paralysis; practice by journaling an error's facts versus your emotional narrative, then discuss with a trusted colleague to reframe it productively.Bear Witness to Suffering: For patients and peers, simply listening and acknowledging pain builds trust, whether it's a patient's chronic illness story or a colleague's post-error distress. Try this: Next time a teammate struggles, offer a quick check-in like "Need a coffee break?" to foster community and remind them they're valued beyond one mistake.Deliver Genuine Apologies: Avoid passive language; own your role actively e.g., "I'm sorry my oversight contributed to this outcome, I've been reflecting deeply and changing my process". Patients value transparency and prevention steps; role-play with a mentor before tough talks to ensure honesty while consulting risk management for legal guidance.About the Show:Succeed In Medicine covers patient interactions, burnout, career growth, personal finance, and more. If you're tired of dull medical lectures, tune in for real-world lessons we should have learned in med school!About the Guest:Dr. Danielle Ofri is a primary care internist at Bellevue Hospital and clinical professor at NYU.

I'm opening 2026 by claiming clarity as my word for the year and sharing an honest reflection on where She Leads has been and where it is going next.In this solo episode, I share my personal journey after eleven years of serving women entrepreneurs through She Leads Media and what it means to step into a new chapter with sharper vision. A simple moment, getting new glasses, became a powerful metaphor for how deeply I'm craving clarity in my work, my focus, and the women I'm best positioned to serve. I talk candidly about the tension between wanting to help everyone and knowing that real impact requires intentionality, boundaries, and depth. At the heart of my work has always been deep listening, trusting that women already hold their own answers and need space, reflection, and support to access them.I also unpack the realities of entrepreneurship that rarely get airtime, especially for women. The same habits we bring into life, procrastination, self-doubt, resilience, show up in business, shaping outcomes for better or worse. Drawing from my teaching at NYU and Rice, I explain why foundational self-awareness matters more than any tactic or trend. I challenge the glossy, quick-fix narratives that dominate online marketing and speak honestly about the sustained effort and inner work required to build something meaningful.This episode is also a turning point. I reflect on my own realization that the current She Leads model will not reach the million-dollar scale needed to expand impact and why that matters. As I enter what feels like my third professional chapter, I share my vision for supporting women who have reached or are approaching seven figures and are asking deeper questions about purpose, burnout, and legacy.If you are craving clarity, wrestling with growth, or sensing that your next level requires a different way of leading, this conversation is for you. I invite you to listen in, reflect alongside me, and help shape the future of She Leads as we redefine what it means for women to truly lead with intention, sustainability, and impact.Chapters✨ 00:56 Welcoming 2026 with clarity and intention

The new year has only just begun, and already we have seen an event with massive significance for the world of energy. The US operation to remove Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro opens a new era for a country that holds – according to some definitions – the world's largest oil reserves.So far there has been little impact on oil markets. But what are the implications going to be for energy in the months and years to come? To discuss how this volatile situation might evolve, host Ed Crooks is joined by regular guest Amy Myers Jaffe, Director of NYU's Energy, Climate Justice and Sustainability Lab, and an expert on oil earlier in her career. History never repeats itself, the saying goes, but sometimes it rhymes. Amy draws a parallel between Venezuela today, and Iraq after the US-led invasion and the overthrow of Saddam Hussein in 2003. There are some similarities in the position of the two oil-rich countries, which were both dragged down by mismanagement and sanctions. But Amy argues that Venezuela's oil system is in far worse shape, with looted equipment, chronic power and fuel shortages, and damage that may not be reversible.Melissa Lott, another Energy Gang regular, also joins the show, and raises the question of what regime change in Venezuela might mean for the energy transition. Melissa is a partner at Microsoft, but appearing on the show in her usual role as an independent commentator and energy expert. Then it's on to the other places, people and technologies that are likely to make a big impact on energy this year. Ed is watching the Gulf Coast buildout of new liquefied natural gas (LNG) plants. It is a boom so big that Wood Mackenzie expects US LNG exports to roughly double from 2023 levels by around 2030, with more growth beyond.The gang assesses the likely consequences of surging LNG supplies: downward pressure on global gas prices, and potential financial strain for exporters. There is also the possibility that a peace deal in Ukraine could make the oversupply even worse, by allowing more Russian gas to flow west into European markets. Next up, it's people to watch in 2026. Melissa names the US energy secretary Chris Wright, and Ed picks new FERC chairman Laura Swett. As the US power grid, and its energy system more generally, face mounting challenges because of the growth in data centers needed for AI, effective policy and regulation will be critical. Amy chooses China's President Xi Jinping: the country's next five-year plan could reshape the global competition for energy dominance.On technologies to watch, battery storage is a hot topic. Melissa and Ed discuss the supply chains needed to meet growing demand, and innovative products such as Form Energy's iron-air batteries, which are being deployed in a first-ever commercial project that will be fully operational this year. Amy's choice is humanoid robots. They're expensive and still imperfect, but are they going to rule the future? They are already being trialled for repetitive factory tasks. Amy says her Roomba can't cope with a spilt bowl of cereal. But will new flexible AI-guided robots be able to do the job properly?Follow the show so you don't miss an episode this year – it's going to be a busy one.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

In this episode of The Missing Secret Podcast, John and Kelly share their observations on how to actually love what you do for a career. Where when you get up it each morning, you look forward to going to work. John talks about how with the think it be it methodology, it's all about giving you control over your self. But what good is control if you're doing a job that you hate. In studying success, John sees that doing what you love for a career comes down to three things being in alignment. Your values, your proclivities and unique talents, and then your interests that are economically viable. And so in this episode, John and Kelly talk about values. John says that most people don't really know what values are. And Susie Welch from NYU has a great book called becoming you. Where she describes 16 different values that are important to understand as you pursue your career. And during this podcast, John and Kelly talk about each value and where they personally rate on each value. It's a fascinating discussion. That addresses values like how important is control. How important is recognition and celebrity. How important is work versus family.Buy John's book, THE MISSING SECRET of the Legendary Book Think and Grow Rich : And a 12-minute-a-day technique to apply it here.About the Hosts:John MitchellJohn's story is pretty amazing. After spending 20 years as an entrepreneur, John was 50 years old but wasn't as successful as he thought he should be. To rectify that, he decided to find the “top book in the world” on SUCCESS and apply that book literally Word for Word to his life. That Book is Think & Grow Rich. The book says there's a SECRET for success, but the author only gives you half the secret. John figured out the full secret and a 12 minute a day technique to apply it.When John applied his 12 minute a day technique to his life, he saw his yearly income go to over $5 million a year, after 20 years of $200k - 300k per year. The 25 times increase happened because John LEVERAGED himself by applying science to his life.His daily technique works because it focuses you ONLY on what moves the needle, triples your discipline, and consistently generates new business ideas every week. This happens because of 3 key aspects of the leveraging process.John's technique was profiled on the cover of Time Magazine. He teaches it at the University of Texas' McCombs School of Business, which is one the TOP 5 business schools in the country.

What is consciousness, really? Why does it not simply switch on at a single moment? Neuroscientist Niko Kukushkin explains how even single cells can show primitive forms of memory and agency, why the human mind is not a mysterious force floating above biology, and why reducing it to "just neurons" misses what actually matters. He also discusses the evolutionary gamble of complexity, why bacteria still dominate the planet, and how abstraction and memory together give rise to thought. At the center of the conversation is an unsettling question: Why does it feel so special to be you when science says that you are nothing but a chemical reaction—a collection of atoms and molecules, like rocks, paperclips, and everything else in the physical universe? Nikolay Kukushkin is a clinical associate professor at New York University and a research fellow at NYU's Center for Neural Science, where he studies how temporal patterns shape memory formation. He holds degrees from St. Petersburg State University and Oxford University, and completed postdoctoral training at Harvard Medical School. He is the author of a recent paper in Nature Communications demonstrating canonical memory in non-neural cells. His book is One Hand Clapping.

On this episode of CounterPunch Radio, Erik Wallenberg and Joshua Frank welcome Ellen Schrecker to discuss the legacy of McCarthyism and the current right-wing attack on academic freedom in the U.S., and why the situation is even worse today than it was in the 1950s. Ellen Schrecker is an American historian and author who has written extensively about McCarthyism and American higher education. She is the author of many books, including The Lost Promise: American Universities in the 1960s, published by the University of Chicago Press, which provides the first comprehensive analysis of American higher education's most turbulent decade. She holds a Ph.D. from Harvard, taught there and at NYU and Princeton, and later joined Yeshiva University, from which she retired as a full professor. Head over and grab some books from the best shop, Pilsen Community Books. The post Resisting Attacks on Academic Freedom / Ellen Schrecker appeared first on CounterPunch.org.

It's hard for me to conjure up another word for Joecar Hanna's award-winning short films, DELIVER ME (2003) and TALK ME (2025), other than: masterpiece. They push the boundaries of cost, intimacy, and what the medium itself can deliver. If you're able to see them -- maybe reach out to Joecar on social media and be nice, it might work -- do so. Near the end of the episode, he gets to an important point: intimacy content still hasn't been taken over by AI.What a unique filmmaker here today for the podcast; director/writer/actor, even willing to work blue, Joecar Hanna.In this episode, Joecar and I discuss:what it's like having masterpieces of short films unavailable for viewing;if there's a part of filmmaking that doesn't appeal to him;how he got started in filmmaking and why he decided to get his MFA at NYU;telling "your story" if you don't have a story to tell;changing "find your voice" to "find your perspective";how to think of his last two films with similar names;his ability to pull off so many things with his films -- art department, makeup, intimacy coordination -- with so little money;the focus of his art at the intersection of intimacy and love;the amazing story (and Spike Lee's encouragement) about him acting in intimate scenes;why so many filmmakers shy away from the level of intimacy that's in his projects;if he's happy with NYU's focus on top festivals and his recommendations for others;what people are looking for in films if it's not quality?his next project and how people should approach film festivals.Joecar's Indie Film Highlights: AFTER THIS DEATH (2025) dir. by Lucio Castro; DRUNKEN NOODLES (2025) dir. by Lucio Castro; THE MAN FROM EARTH (2007) dir. by Richard SchenkmanMemorable Quotes:"And they always tell you to keep it private and to preserve the status and all this kinds of things, right? That, for a short, I sometimes wonder really if it's necessary.""Racism in Europe -- in particular, Spain -- is completely different to how racism could be here, right? It's more invisible. It's more like little details.""Do I need to go to film school? And the truth is I could focus while I had all the other crafts, I could focus on the last one that I needed to train, which was writing." "How can I tell this story and can I condense when I don't have tools or I don't have money." "When you're in film school and you have many people helping you, obviously they're not getting paid.""For TALK ME, I had to go back and ask every single person I knew for the last 20 years favors.""I really like to talk about what I call little prisons of, or cages, from people...that we like to put ourselves in.""They have to know me and they have to know that I'm not a creepy person that is just...trying to get everyone naked.""There's 300 people in this room seeing our butts right now." "When I won TIFF, no one called me next day." "We can't be too precious about what we have.""Even if you go to Sundance Labs right now, you can find people struggling with financing.

After four years of fighting monsters from another dimension, the the Hawkins heroes face their final battle—one that will determine not just the fate of Hawkins, but whether Eleven can ever escape the cycle of being hunted. Join hosts Darrell and Addi as we break down "The Rightside Up," the epic series finale that brings the Stranger Things saga to its emotional conclusion. We dissect the climactic showdown in the Abyss as El, Kali, and Max infiltrate Vecna's mind while the Party battles the Mind Flayer's physical form, analyze Holly's heroic leadership as she guides the kidnapped children to safety, and explore Vecna's tragic origin story revealed through Will's connection to the hive mind—discovering that Henry Creel was an innocent boy corrupted by the Mind Flayer. From Joyce's cathartic revenge with her axe to Hopper's devastating vision of Sara, from the explosive exotic matter collapse to that gut-wrenching final goodbye between El and Mike at the gate, we're covering every moment of this finale. But the story doesn't end with Vecna's death—we jump forward to 1989 for the kid's high school graduation, where Dustin delivers an unforgettable valedictorian speech honoring Eddie Munson's legacy, and we witness each character's future unfold. We break down the emotional epilogue showing where everyone ends up: Robin at Smith College, Steve coaching baseball and teaching sex ed, Nancy at the Herald, Jonathan making films at NYU, and Will finding a fresh start embracing his identity. We also explore the biggest question the finale leaves us with—did Eleven really sacrifice herself, or did she and Kali pull off one final illusion to escape the government's hunt forever? Mike's D&D theory gives us hope, and we're sharing our take on this bittersweet ending. From Hopper's proposal to Joyce to that final shot of Holly and her friends starting their own D&D campaign, this series finale honored the journey while saying goodbye to the characters we love. Whether you're celebrating the victories, mourning the losses, or debating El's true fate, this breakdown covers it all. Thank you for being part of this adventure with us—always.

For this week's episode, we are dipping into the archives to revisit a conversation that resonated with so many of you. I'm talking with Vanessa Gorelkin, a seasoned occupational therapist and ADHD coach who's been working in the field for nearly 30 years. Vanessa holds a Bachelor of Arts degree from Brandeis (Bran-Dice) University and a Master's degree in Occupational Therapy from NYU. She specializes in executive function strategies, emotional regulation, and anxiety management, and she brings a unique perspective to helping adults with ADHD navigate the day-to-day. In this encore presentation, we discuss: The "Want-to-Do" Gap: Why we struggle even with the tasks we actually enjoy. The Anxiety Connection: How anxiety and executive dysfunction team up to create a cycle of frustration. Strategy Decay: Why tools that work perfectly for a month inevitably seem to stop working. Practical Regulation: How to break down tasks so they feel doable and why you need a "crisis plan" before the crisis actually hits. Whether you missed this the first time around or just need a refresher on these strategies, there is so much gold in this episode. You can still find all the links and resources mentioned in this episode on the original show notes page at: HackingYourADHD.com/215 This Episode's Top Tips 1. If something feels overwhelming, try breaking it down into micro-steps. Even something like getting out of bed can be broken into "sit up," "put feet on the floor," and "stand up." In more practical ways, we could think of this as starting out as just opening the document you need to work on, adding the formatting, and starting your first sentence. The idea is you want to build momentum and go with the flow. 2. Be mindful of language; words like "just" and "should" can be damaging. Instead of "I should just wash the dishes," you can reframe it as "I could wash the dishes," and then also if you need a little bit more asking yourself, "What's making this difficult, and how can I work with it?" 3. It's important to have a crisis plan ready before you need it. When emotional overwhelm hits, it's hard to think through what you need. You can pre-plan strategies like a weighted blanket, a favorite show, or calling a friend so you don't have to figure it out at the moment.
