How can we explain the rise of loneliness in our world? In episode 148 of Overthink, Ellie and David discuss the difference between loneliness and solitude, how loneliness could help explain the rise of fascism in the US, and the public health implications of loneliness. What is the male loneliness epidemic, and does it truly exist? Does the state have a moral obligation to address the loneliness of its citizens? And do we have a fundamental human right to connection? In the Substack bonus segment, your hosts get into the etymology of loneliness and discuss the type of companionship that animals offer humans.Works Discussed:Hannah Arendt, The Origins of TotalitarianismKimberley Brownlee, Being Sure of Each Other: An Essay on Social Rights and FreedomsBouke de Vries and Sarah A.

I talk with journalist Ellen Huet, whose new book Empire of Orgasm digs into the strange origins and evolution of Nicole Daedone and OneTaste, and goes into more detail than the Netflix doc titled Orgasm Inc. We talk about where OneTaste's orgasmic meditation practices actually came from, how Daedone built a movement around it, and how that movement shifted into something far more high-control and ultimately criminal. Topics discussed include: What counts as coercion when adults voluntarily join a group they can technically leave at any time? Where's the line between unconventional lifestyle experimentation and exploitation? We talk about Nicole's appeal, why people found her so compelling, and why charisma often has more to do with the listener than the speaker. And we discuss the paradox that makes groups like this so powerful: people can experience genuine benefits and connection at the very same time that harmful dynamics are unfolding.

The Origins of the Russian Imperial Project: Khmelnytsky and "New Russia". Professor Eugene Finkel discusses the statue of Bohdan Khmelnytsky, a 17th-century figure viewed differently by Ukrainians as a founding father and by Russians as a uniter with Moscow. Khmelnytsky, too weak to fight Poland, swore allegiance to the Tsar, which Moscow interpreted as complete integration. This established the core conflict and marked the beginning of Russia's imperial project, treating Ukraine as a colonial area they called "New Russia" by the late 18th century. Guest: Professor Eugene Finkel. 1859

For well over one hundred years, people have been attempting to make American colleges and universities more efficient and more accountable. Indeed, Ethan Ris argues in Other People's Colleges: The Origins of American Higher Education Reform (U Chicago Press, 2022), the reform impulse is baked into American higher education, the result of generations of elite reformers who have called for sweeping changes in the sector and raised existential questions about its sustainability. When that reform is beneficial, offering major rewards for minor changes, colleges and universities know how to assimilate it. When it is hostile, attacking autonomy or values, they know how to resist it. The result is a sector that has learned to accept top-down reform as part of its existence. In the early twentieth century, the “academic engineers,” a cadre of elite, external reformers from foundations, businesses, and government, worked to reshape and reorganize the vast base of the higher education pyramid. Their reform efforts were largely directed at the lower tiers of higher education, but those efforts fell short, despite the wealth and power of their backers, leaving a legacy of successful resistance that affects every college and university in the United States. Today, another coalition of business leaders, philanthropists, and politicians is again demanding efficiency, accountability, and utility from American higher education. But, as Ris argues, top-down design is not destiny. Drawing on extensive and original archival research, Other People's Colleges offers an account of higher education that sheds light on today's reform agenda.

Nolan Gray — Senior Director of Legislation and Research at California YIMBY — is in good traffic this week for a discussion on how the state with America's biggest housing problem has become a national leader in reforming the rules of the built environment. California is often treated as both a cautionary tale and a blueprint — derided for its crises yet envied for its innovation. Nolan walks us through California's last decade of housing policy evolution — from failed early bills like SB 827 and SB 50 to seismic wins like SB 79, which legalized mid-rise multifamily housing near transit, and AB 130, which exempted infill housing from certain environmental reviews. He explains how bipartisan coalitions, local data, and a willingness to rethink outdated laws like CEQA have made real change possible.We also touch on: Why density is environmentalism. The cultural paradox of Los Angeles and car dependence. How Sacramento quietly became California's model midsized city. The future of transit funding and infill development. Lessons from working across political divides to make housing work. How storytelling and communication shape real policy progress.Timeline:00:00 The nuance of California.01:15 The contradictions of California's reputation.02:29 Economic powerhouse, housing failure.04:21 Newsom, YIMBYs, and the new momentum.05:20 Nolan Gray.07:23 California's housing crisis explained.08:47 Why families are leaving the state.09:51 The political wake-up call.10:12 Origins of recent SBs.11:33 Early lessons from failed reforms.12:24 The ADU revolution.13:20 Environmental review reform (AB 130).14:17 Construction costs and the next frontier.15:11 Inside the CEQA reform victory.20:02 Rethinking “environmentalism” in housing.22:47 How CEQA became weaponized.24:20 The irony of “greenfield” development.25:40 Real environmentalists vs. procedural ones.26:09 Bridging divides across California.27:37 Exporting the housing crisis inland.28:18 Bipartisan coalitions and shared values.29:28 Property rights and family housing narratives.30:14 SB 79 as a national model.31:14 The transit funding question.32:18 Transit agencies as landowners.33:02 Revenue models for sustainable transit.33:47 Building costs and American inefficiency.34:31 Transit as geometry, not ideology.35:14 The LA paradox.36:08 Car culture as identity.37:23 Angelenos waking up to change.38:38 Sacramento's quiet leadership.45:34 Practical vs. theoretical planning.47:20 UCLA and the civic responsibility of planners.48:06 Donald Shoup's influence.50:33 Communicating policy and nuance.52:24 The gap between research and perception.53:05 Policy storytelling and responsibility.54:16 How to make complexity accessible.55:06 Why housing reform depends on communication.56:22 Wrapping up.For context:Read Nolan's work on Substack.On SB79.On CEQA.California YIMBY.Nolan's book, on zoning.

What if secret societies have been controlling the world from the shadows since the dawn of civilization? In this explosive interview of Mayim Bialik's Breakdown, Dr. Richard B. Spence — Professor Emeritus of History at the University of Idaho, expert on espionage, secret societies, and occultism, and co-host of the hit podcast Strange As It Seems — pulls back the curtain on the hidden organizations that may have shaped history, politics, and even the founding of the United States itself. Dr. Spence breaks down the benefits of being in a secret society (and why you should care, even if you'd never join one), whether ancient secret orders have influenced the rise and fall of empires, how modern politics is subtly manipulated by groups we don't even realize exist, and the psychological and mystical appeal that keeps these societies alive. He discusses whether secret societies help dangerous leaders rise to power, including shocking theories around Hitler's rise, the true definition of "the occult", why many secret orders are accused of Satan worship or dark rituals, the most active and influential secret societies today, and how new ones are forming online in the digital age. Dr. Richard B. Spence also reveals: - Surprising parallels between ancient orders and modern Greek life (fraternities and sororities) - Origins and influence of the Freemasons: were the Founding Fathers truly Freemasons, and what ideals did they embed into this country's DNA? - How secret societies evolve, and why some are actually designed as self-improvement programs - Why these organizations can become “petri dishes for nefarious actions”, sparking revolutions and even government overthrows - Why these groups have historically been male-dominated, and the surprising stories of female and even child secret societies - How intelligence agencies may manufacture conspiracy theories as tools of psychological warfare - Difference between misinformation vs. disinformation, and how each is weaponized - Are modern day government agencies like the CIA really just secret societies with better branding? - Fine line between secret societies, cults, and religions, and how they manipulate loyalty and belief - Why it's harder than ever to tell truth from deception, especially in the age of AI-generated misinformation - And finally…could the MAGA movement itself be considered a modern-day cult? This deep dive will make you question everything you thought you knew about power, control, and truth.

    My love for tribal ambient music, of course, starts with Steve Roach. Going back to Dreamtime Return, Desert Solitaire, Western Spaces, Origins, Strata, On This Planet, and The Dream Circle, just to name a few. I go through phases where I may tire of the style but I always come back to it, usually when a new record reminds me of how much I love the genre. In this case that new album is "A Path Within A Path" by Seabuckthorn. I always enjoy Seabuckthorn music so I dove into the new album and discovered a few tracks with an excellent, organic percussion sound that I love. The entire album is great. Once I latched onto those rhythmic tracks I knew I had to compile a few more for a new tribal ambient mix. Surprisingly there are no Steve Roach tracks in the mix. Although there's a great track from one of his frequent collaborators, Byron Metcalf, from his lates album - Spiral Exchange. I've created several tribal mixes over the years and I hope you enjoy this and the others as much as I do.   LINKS TO ALL THE MUSIC USED IN THIS MIX: https://seabuckthorn.bandcamp.com/album/a-path-within-a-path https://byronmetcalf.bandcamp.com/album/spiral-exchange https://rainforestspiritualenslavement.bandcamp.com/album/killer-whale-atmospheres https://marcoshuttle.bandcamp.com/album/cobalt-desert-oasis https://hubertdupont.bandcamp.com/album/trio-kosmos-3 https://laurencepike.bandcamp.com/album/the-undreamt-of-centre https://frore-shanemorris.bandcamp.com/album/ochre https://orenambarchi.bandcamp.com/album/kind-regards https://craigleon.bandcamp.com/album/anthology-of-interplanetary-folk-music-vol-2-the-canon https://dronarivm.bandcamp.com/album/theme https://jfoersternkramer.bandcamp.com/album/habitat Cheers!   T R A C K L I S T : 00:00   Seabuckthorn - Thunder Without A Sound (A Path Within A Path 2025) 03:20   Byron Metcalf - Cycles Of Ascension (Spiral Exchange 2025) 09:27   Rainforest Spiritual Enslavement - Orca Skull Memories(Bering Strait) (Killer Whale Atmospheres 2023) 16:44   Marco Shuttle - Winds Of Cydonia (Cobalt Desert Oasis 2021) 21:20   Hubert Dupont - Bathyscaphe (Trio Kosmos 2020) 24:27   Laurence Pike - Universal Forces (The Undreamt-of Centre 2024) 29:44   Frore & Shane Morris - Into Dust (Ochre 2023) 37:47   Oren Ambarchi & Eric Thielemans - Kind Regards(Begining) (Kind Regards 2025) 43:18   Craig Leon - The Gates Made Plain (Anthology of Interplanetary Folk Music Vol. 2  2019) 48:39   Seabuckthorn - White Boar (A Path Within A Path 2025) 50:30   Bartosz Dziadosz - Fragments (Theme 2025) 55:10   J Foerster & N Kramer - Levitation Room (Habitat 2021) 59:09   end

What you believe about where we come from changes everything.In this episode of Worldview Wednesday, Joel Settecase walks through the four dominant views on origins—Naturalistic Evolution, Theistic Evolution, Old Earth Creationism, and Young Earth Creationism—explaining how each view shapes theology, science, and your everyday worldview. Grounded in Scripture and sharpened by apologetics, this episode cuts through confusion and helps you think clearly and biblically about where we came from, who we are, and why it matters.This episode is drawn from Unit 1 of The Think Institute's 12-week Origins curriculum.Topics Covered:Why your view of origins shapes your entire theologyThe key biblical arguments for Young Earth CreationismWhere the other views fall short—scientifically and scripturallyThe best evidence from Genesis, Jesus, and PaulHow to equip your family with confidence in God's Word from the first verseFeatured Scriptures:Genesis 1, Psalm 19, Exodus 20:11, Matthew 19:4, Romans 1:20, Romans 5:12–19Citations & Links Mentioned:How Old Is the Earth? – Answers in GenesisWhen Did God Create Adam and Eve? – Reasons to BelieveFrancis Collins – BiologosDinosaur Soft Tissue – Creation Ministries InternationalGaps in Genesis Genealogies – Answers in GenesisMature Galaxies and the JWST – Biblical Science InstituteRecommended Ministries:Answers in GenesisCreation Ministries InternationalInstitute for Creation ResearchBiblical Science Institute

What is consciousness actually doing?In this episode of Mind-Body Solution, neuroscientist and theorist Dr Adam Safron joins Dr Tevin Naidu to explore one of the most ambitious frameworks in contemporary consciousness science - Integrated World Modeling Theory (IWMT).IWMT unites leading theories like Integrated Information Theory (IIT), Global Workspace Theory (GWT), and the Free Energy Principle (FEP) into one powerful vision: that consciousness is the brain's model of its own embodied relationship to the world.Together, they examine:- How consciousness might function as a control system for adaptive intelligence- Why embodiment and emotion are essential to conscious experience- Whether consciousness is truly causal, and how this reframes free will- How psychedelics, meditation, and altered states reveal the structure of the self-model- And what IWMT tells us about AI, evolution, and the universe itself Bridging neuroscience, philosophy, and cybernetics, this conversation invites you to rethink what it means to be aware.TIMESTAMPS:(00:00) – Introduction (02:15) – Why Consciousness Matters in the Universe(05:24) – What Is Integrated World Modeling Theory (IWMT)?(09:03) – Modeling the Self, Modeling the World(12:12) – Consciousness as Embodied Simulation(16:38) – Is Consciousness Causal?(20:25) – Agency and the Active Inference Brain(24:30) – Free Energy & Free Will(29:17) – The Hierarchy of Minds(34:42) – From Computation to Experience(39:28) – Why Consciousness Defies Reduction(43:05) – The Psychedelic Brain and World Modeling(47:56) – The Role of Emotion in Consciousness(52:12) – Consciousness and Causation: The Recursive Loop(57:20) – Evolution, Embodiment & the Origins of Mind(1:02:00) – Artificial Minds & Synthetic Consciousness(1:07:25) – The Cybernetic Universe Hypothesis(1:12:38) – Psychedelics & AI(1:24:45) – Engineering Artificial Consciousness(1:27:10) – Toward an Integrated, Compassionate Understanding of Mind(1:44:00) – ConclusionEPISODE LINKS:- Adam's Website: https://www.adamsafron.com/- Adam's X: https://twitter.com/adamsafron- Adam's Channel: https://www.youtube.com/@AdamSafron/- Adam's Publications: https://scholar.google.com/citations?user=dZOoilgAAAAJ&hl=enCONNECT:- Website: https://mindbodysolution.org - YouTube: https://youtube.com/@MindBodySolution- Podcast: https://creators.spotify.com/pod/show/mindbodysolution- Twitter: https://twitter.com/drtevinnaidu- Facebook: https://facebook.com/drtevinnaidu - Instagram: https://instagram.com/drtevinnaidu- LinkedIn: https://linkedin.com/in/drtevinnaidu- Website: https://tevinnaidu.com=============================Disclaimer: The information provided on this channel is for educational purposes only.

Asteroid Belt and Meteorite Origins (Solar System Formation 2.  Greg Brennecka discusses the origins of objects falling to Earth, explaining that the asteroid belt's location is determined by the movement of large planets like Jupiter and Saturn, whose gravitational interactions swept material into specific resonance zones. Cosmochemists can link meteorites back to parent bodies such as Vesta by matching spectral data from probes to laboratory samples, and pieces of Mars also land on Earth, kicked off by space impacts and definitively identified by matching trapped gases to the known Martian atmosphere. Brennecka notes that the massive impact that formed the Moon likely caused the entire Earth to flash-melt, suggesting that if life existed before that event, it would have been extinguished by the heat. 1958

Origins of Water and Organic Molecules in Space4.  Greg Brennecka explores the origins of life's ingredients, noting that Earth, Mars, and meteorites are fundamentally made of the same materials, with meteorites delivering complex organic molecules containing carbon. While life needs rock, energy, and water, scientists suspect Earth's water may have settled back after being liberated during the moon-forming impact, but meteorites still contributed significant building blocks in the form of pre-made ingredients like amino acids and nucleotides (adenine, guanine, and uracil) that formed in the outer solar system. Delivered in a "ready to go kit," these components simplify the emergence of life, and Brennecka stresses the need for continued missions to retrieve pristine asteroid samples to better understand our origins.

Author Matt Cox joins the show to unpack an online conspiracy linking country megastar Garth Brooks to clusters of disappearances and unsolved homicides—claims that exploded from Tom Segura & Christina P's Your Mom's House meme into a crowdsourced rabbit hole. We stress: these are allegations and speculation, not proven facts. Still, Matt walks us through why some internet sleuths think the timelines and tour stops are suspicious, how “organized” offenders evolve, and what retired profilers and a former tour roadie allegedly told him about the logistics that make this theory feel possible. In this episode (allegations discussed): -The YMH spark and why the guest decided to write a book with a formerly incarcerated co-author. -What “heat-map” patterns of missing persons around tour dates might suggest—and where that logic breaks. -Interviews with retired FBI profilers, criminologists, a Hollywood producer, and an anonymous roadie (under NDA). -Early cases near Oklahoma State University, the move to Nashville, and a controversial first big purchase: 300 acres of rural land. -Touring mechanics: slipping away between load-ins, rest-stop encounters, and the “suitcase” hypothesis. -Vegas residency years, access to a private jet, and why some claim disappearances spiked. -Why a simple on-air appearance could defuse the rumor—and why that may never happen.

In this powerful episode, we welcome Dr. Alman, co-creator of the groundbreaking ACE (Adverse Childhood Experiences) study, to discuss trauma, betrayal, and the path to healing. Dr. Alman shares insights from decades of work with Kaiser Permanente and explains why all trauma contains elements of betrayal.  Key Topics Discussed  The Origins of the ACE Study  How the study began through Kaiser Permanente's weight loss program  Dr. Alman's work with patients trying to lose 50-200+ pounds  The surprising discovery that successful weight loss patients were gaining weight back  Collaboration with Dr. Felitti and Dr. Robert Anda to develop the 10 core questions  Understanding Trauma and Betrayal  Core principle: All trauma is betrayal - it involves people we trusted who didn't have our backs  Trauma comes from family members, partners, friends, grandparents, or anyone we depended on  The weight-protection mechanism: How people use weight to protect themselves from harm  The 10 Core ACE Questions (and Beyond)  The original 10 questions identify the most common childhood traumas  Sexual abuse: Found in close to 60% of women in the weight loss program  Neglect: Particularly common among men whose fathers were absent or overworked  The list is not exhaustive - many other traumas exist  The 11th and 12th Questions-important inclusions to access additional information  The Inner Critic Problem  The perfectionist inner judge that becomes a "lifetime member" of your psyche  How childhood conditioning creates an inner critic that fights with our emotions  The futility of trying to eliminate the inner critic  Why therapy alone often isn't enough to resolve this internal conflict  Coping Mechanisms and Addiction  The dosage principle: Like aspirin, coping mechanisms are about dosage - some is helpful, too much is harmful  Common coping strategies: food, work, exercise, drugs, alcohol  High achievers and entrepreneurs often use success as a distraction  The driven CEO who feels "empty and betrayed on the inside"  How seemingly "healthy" distractions like work and exercise can mask deeper issues  The Path to Healing  The Three-Step Process:  Awareness - Answer the 12 ACE questions  Bridge-building - Awareness alone isn't enough; you must build bridges, not walls  Root cause healing - Access your inner wisdom beneath the trauma  Key Principles:  Your emotions are bridges, not obstacles  Your inner critic can be worked with, not eliminated  Everyone has inner wisdom - "the gold underneath all that lead"  Healing requires going deeper than emotions, judgment, and childhood conditioning  The goal is to utilize your trauma and betrayal as tools for growth  Featured Resource  Enlight App - Developed by Dr. Alman and Dr. Felitti to help people connect with their inner wisdom daily, utilizing emotions, judgments, and childhood experiences as tools for healing rather than obstacles to overcome.  Key Takeaways  The ACE study has reached 100 countries and millions of people worldwide  20% of people use 80% of healthcare services, often due to unresolved trauma  Trauma manifests in physical symptoms: stomach aches, back pain, weight issues, autoimmune illnesses, migraines, depression, and anxiety  Everyone's trauma experience is unique, even when ACE scores are similar  Healing isn't about getting rid of parts of yourself - it's about integration and working with all aspects of who you are  You can't "get rid" of your inner critic any more than you can remove the rings from a tree  The path forward involves accepting, reassuring, and connecting with all parts of yourself  Notable Quotes  "All trauma is betrayal, because it's people we trusted, people we hoped would have our back, would take care of us."  "Awareness is great. It's a bridge, but it's not enough."  "The inner critic has a lifetime membership - you might as well learn how to work with it."  "Everybody has inner wisdom. It's probably real deep, deeper than you've ever gone, deeper than your emotions, deeper than your judge, deeper than your perfectionist."  "Two aspirin will help you, 100 will kill you. Same thing with coping mechanisms - it's all about dosage."  Connect with Dr. Alman  Download the Enlightn app for support (you can also go to enlightn.me) and for more information about the ACE Study and access to the assessment questions, visit https://drbrianalman.com.  To learn more about healing from betrayal trauma, visit https://thepbtinstitute.com.  Discover the groundbreaking ACE Study with co-creator Dr. Alman.

2 Kings 2 isn't a cute Bible-college brochure. It's a field manual.

Get my 9-Minute Kettlebell & Bodyweight Challenge FREE here: https://www.9MinuteChallenge.com Despite its ancient origins, the kettlebell has managed to stand the test of time as a strength and conditioning tool par excellence - even inspiring the creation of a sport organized around the tool.  For the past few decades, many kettlebell sport practitioners have taken it upon themselves to not just dismiss, but actively and consistently badmouth Hardstyle - the kettlebell training style pioneered by the Father of the Modern Kettlebell Revolution, Pavel Tsatsouline, a former SPETZNAZ physical training instructor and founder of the Russian Kettlebell Challenge and later StrongFirst.  But do their arguments have any merit? And which style is REALLY the best?  I dive into this and a number of other topics on this very episode. In it I cover:  History of Kettlebells: Ancient origins from Iran, China, and Greece Kettlebell Sport vs. Hard Style: A comprehensive comparison Origins of Kettlebell Training in Russia Legendary Strength Athletes and Their Kettlebell Training The Development of Kettlebell Sport Competitions Pavel's Hard Style Kettlebell Methodology Athletes Trained Using Hard Style Techniques Critique of Kettlebell Sport Enthusiasts' Attitudes The Versatility of Kettlebell Training for Different Fitness Goals Historical Use of Kettlebells for Strength and Conditioning   On that note, if you like training that: · Gives you more strength than it takes from you · Improves your stamina and resilience simultaneously · Powers-up every nook, cranny, crevice, and corner of your Soft Machine Then you just might like my 9-Minute Kettlebell and Bodyweight Challenge. As the name indicates, it's just 9 minutes long, and it's designed to be done WITH your current workouts – NOT instead of them. Even cooler: Many find that it actually amplifies their strength in their favorite kettlebell and bodyweight moves, like presses, squats, pullups, and more. And best of all, it's free. How free? I'm talkin' freer than the 4th of July, my friend. Get thee thine own copy here:  http://www.9MinuteChallenge.com  Have fun and happy training! Aleks Salkin

Joseph E. Stiglitz has had a remarkable career. He is a brilliant academic, capped by sharing the Nobel Memorial Prize in Economics and the Nobel Peace Prize, and honorary degrees from Harvard, Cambridge, Oxford and more than fifty other universities, and elected not only to the National Academy of Sciences and the American Academy of Arts and Letters but the Royal Society and the British Academy; a public servant, who served as Chair of President Clinton's Council of Economic Advisors and Chief Economist and Senior Vice President of the World Bank, headed international commissions for the UN and France, and was awarded the French Legion of Honor and Australia's Sydney Peace Prize; a public intellectual whose numerous books on vital topics have been best sellers.What brought him to economics were his concerns about the inequality and discrimination he saw growing up. Wanting to understand what drives it and what can be done about it has been his lifelong passion. This book gathers together and extends to new frontiers this lifelong work, drawing upon the challenges and insights of each of these phases of his career.In a still very widely cited paper written fifty years ago, Stiglitz set forth the fundamental framework for analyzing intergenerational transfer of wealth and advantage, which plays a central role in persistent inequality. That and subsequent work, developed most fully here for the first time, described today's inequality as a result of centrifugal forces increasing inequality and centripetal forces reducing it. In recent decades, the centrifugal forces have strengthened, the centripetal forces weakened. His general theory provides a framework for understanding the marked growth in inequality in recent decades, and for devising policies to reduce it.A central message is that ever-increasing inequality is not inevitable. Inequality is, in a fundamental sense, a choice. Stiglitz explains that inequality does not largely arise from differences in savings rates between capitalists and others, though that may play a role (as Piketty, Marx, and Kaldor suggest); but rather, it originates importantly from the rules of the game, which have weakened the bargaining power of workers as they have increased the market power of corporations. He also explains how monetary authorities have contributed to increasing wealth inequality, and how, unless something is done about it, likely changes in technology such as AI and robotization will make matters worse. He describes policies that can simultaneously reduce inequality and improve economic performance. Joseph E. Stiglitz is an American economist and a professor at Columbia University.  Morteza Hajizadeh is a Ph.D. graduate in English from the University of Auckland in New Zealand. His research interests are Cultural Studies; Critical Theory; Environmental History; Medieval (Intellectual) History; Gothic Studies; 18th and 19th Century British Literature. YouTube channel. Twitter.
