The Dad Edge Podcast (formerly The Good Dad Project Podcast)
In this powerful behind-the-scenes conversation, Marc and I sit down to unpack Eric's story — a successful entrepreneur, father of five, and longtime member of the Dad Edge Business Boardroom. Eric opens up about the strained season in his marriage, the subtle warning signs he ignored, and the moment his wife Katie made it clear that change needed to happen. This episode is about more than marriage repair. It's about ownership. It's about learning skills most men were never taught — emotional validation, empathy, leadership at home — and realizing that waiting for crisis only makes the climb steeper. If you're a busy business owner who feels scattered, distracted, or "almost disconnected" at home, this conversation will hit close to home. Timeline Summary: [0:00] The distraction trap of entrepreneurship and busyness [4:48] Eric shares the difficult season in his marriage before joining [7:18] The early warning signs and Katie's wake-up call [9:06] Why waiting for crisis puts men into panic mode [13:48] Learning emotional validation and empathy as new skills [16:11] Skills vs. identity change — upgrading your operating system [19:17] The public signs that Eric's marriage was turning around [22:31] Why you must change first instead of waiting for your wife to [26:47] Eric's biggest advice: find a community of strong men [29:32] The power of psychological safety and brotherhood Five Key Takeaways The drift from good to terrible is gradual — then sudden. Don't wait for the cliff. Panic is not the best place to rebuild a marriage. Address the rumblings early. Emotional validation and empathy are skills — not personality traits. Identity change happens through environment and repetition. If you want your marriage to change, you must change first.

The final five years before retirement are not maintenance mode. They are leverage years. Small decisions made here can outweigh the previous twenty years of saving and investing. In this episode, James explains why this window is so critical. As your portfolio grows, your returns begin doing more of the heavy lifting than your contributions. That shift changes everything. Panic during a downturn, chase performance at the wrong time, or structure your investments poorly, and you may never capture the growth those final years were meant to deliver.But it is not just about investments. A portfolio alone is not a retirement plan. Income is. How your assets generate cash flow, how you manage sequence risk, and how you structure withdrawals will determine whether your money works for you or against you.Taxes become a central player. In retirement, you gain more control over how and when income shows up. Used intentionally, that control can extend how long your portfolio lasts. Ignored, it can quietly drain more than any market correction.And beyond all of it sits a harder question. What are you actually retiring to. If the spreadsheet is optimized but the life is undefined, the plan has nothing to support.The red zone is not about fear. It is about focus. Get these years right and retirement becomes something you step into with intention, not uncertainty.Learn the tips & strategies to get the most out of life with your money.-Advisory services are offered through Root Financial Partners, LLC, an SEC-registered investment adviser.

Good Sunday to you,Geoffrey Chaucer wrote The Canterbury Tales in around 1400, and it is considered one of the first great works of English literature.Try reading it today and you might question the “English” part. Here're the opening lines:Whan that Aprille with his shoures soote,The droghte of March hath perced to the roote,It does not get much easier.Canterbury Tales is the story of group of pilgrims who walk from Southwark to Canterbury Cathedral. I have done the pilgrimage myself and I would urge you to as well. The structure is quite simple. To pass the time, the pilgrims have to a storytelling contest and so each tells his or her tale. There are around thirty pilgrims - in effect, thirty professions, and so we get the Knight's Tale, the Miller's Tale, the Wife of Bath's Tale and so on.Here is the interesting part. Since the story was written in 1400 we have had, off the top of my head, the printing press, the Agricultural Revolution, the Industrial Revolution, steam power, fossil fuels, the internal combustion engine, electricity, aviation, nuclear power, computers, the internet, smartphones and now artificial intelligence.And yet, if you look the list of characters below, every single one of Chaucer's professions still exists in some recognisable form today.You could go all the way back to the dawn of civilisation and argue the same thing. We still have farmers. We still have merchants. We still have lawyers, doctors, religious people, soldiers, landlords, craftsmen, entertainers, administrators and hustlers.AI will change the nature of the job, but it will not erase the underlying human needs that created it.Machines put many farm labourers out of work at the turn of the 19th century, but they also generated enormous productivity, which created new industries and new jobs, and, it's worth noting, productivity which enabled us to be able to ban slavery. The net result was not mass permanent unemployment but rising prosperity.What Actually ChangesWhat does get destroyed is power structure.Feudalism has gone. The Church no longer dominates European politics - not the Christian Church, anyway. Guilds have faded. The landed aristocracy has all but gone. In their place we have the modern State, bureaucracy, multinational banks, global corporations, Big Tech, Big Pharma, the mainstream media and so on.AI is more likely to erode existing hierarchies than to eliminate work altogether. It will compress middle layers. It will reduce friction. It will concentrate power in some places and decentralise it in others.If you live in a third world country such as the UK, I urge you to own gold or silver. The pound will be further devalued, as will the euro and dollar. The bullion dealer I recommend is The Pure Gold Company. More here.The winners are likely to include: platforms, energy producers, owners of scare assets, large scale infrastructure, those who control distribution. AI is already being used in manufacturing, agriculture and mining, but so much to replace jobs as to increase productivity. You can't help feeling the physical economy is a better place to be than parts of the digital - at least for now, though I guess robots are next if those Chinese videos doing the rounds are anything to go by.Who else wins? AI and machine learning engineers, obviously, certain content creators, those who get good at prompting will find it useful for anything from medicine to plumbing to consultancy.The losers will be among those whose job is mainly to control access to or verify information that AI can now do instantly. Think: interpreters and translators, proofreaders and editors, coders, copywriters and journalists, graphic designers, sales reps, basic financial advisors. I think long-distance drivers' days are numbered too.The work doesn't disappear but the pricing power and margins collapse.Legacy media distribution - not the content creators themselves, but the distribution gatekeepers who controlled which creators reached audiences. Publishers who mainly performed filtering rather than editing, talent agencies for routine work, certain music labels.The job may technically exist but the power and economics drain away.Chaucer's Cast, ModernisedFinally, below is Chaucer's professional cross-section of medieval England. I have added approximate modern equivalents.* Narrator – content creator (!)* Host – Event organiser, podcast presenter* Knight – Army officer* Squire – Cadet, trainee officer* Knight's Yeoman – Bodyguard, fixer, executive assistant* Prioress – Headmistress, senior religious leader* Second Nun – Clergy* Nun's Priest – Chaplain* Monk – Monk* Friar – Fundraiser, community organiser* Merchant – Import–export, trader, entrepreneur* Clerk – Researcher* Man of Law – Barrister, judge* Franklin – Wealthy landowner, landlord, businessman* Haberdasher – Fashion retailer, Etsy seller* Carpenter – Builder* Weaver – Textile manufacturer* Dyer – Industrial processor* Tapestry-maker – Textile artisan* Cook – Chef* Shipman – Merchant mariner, sailor* Physician – Doctor* Wife of Bath – Self-made businesswoman* Parson – Parish priest* Plowman – Smallholder farmer* Miller – Construction materials supplier* Manciple – Buyer, procurement officer* Reeve – Estate manager, COO* Summoner – Bailiff, compliance officer* Pardoner – Carbon credit broker* Canon – Serial start-up founder, “entrepreneur'* Canon's Yeoman – Startup engineerThe Real QuestionI think a fear frenzy is being whipped up - and I say this as someone who has lost his primary source of income (voiceovers) to AI.The work changes. The tools change. The leverage changes. The power centres change. The underlying human needs do not.There will still be farmers because people eat. There will still be merchants because people trade. There will still be storytellers because people crave stories. Most importantly of all, there will still be opportunities, if anything there will be more of them.AI will reduce headcount in some sectors. It will elevate productivity so dramatically that fewer people are required to produce more output. That is economic evolution.If you are worried about AI taking your job, ask yourself this: are you positioned inside an old power structure that is about to weaken? Or are you aligned with the next one forming?Join the gang.Until next time,DominicICYMI here is this week's commentaryFinally, Charlie Morris and I appeared on In The Company of Mavericks this week to discuss what's been going on with gold, silver and bitcoin.

Transcript:Nl: De lucht was grijs en zwaar boven Zandvoort Beach.En: The sky was gray and heavy above Zandvoort Beach.Nl: De wind had een koude, scherpe bijt, maar dat stoorde Thijs niet.En: The wind had a cold, sharp bite, but that didn't bother Thijs.Nl: Hij hield van de kust, vooral in de winter, wanneer de drukte van de zomer verdwenen was.En: He loved the coast, especially in the winter, when the summer crowds had disappeared.Nl: Vandaag was de zee kalm, met golven die zachtjes op het strand rolden.En: Today, the sea was calm, with waves gently rolling onto the shore.Nl: Naast hem liep Femke, zijn avontuurlijke nicht, die van een kort bezoek aan de stad genoot.En: Beside him walked Femke, his adventurous cousin, who was enjoying a short visit to the city.Nl: Thijs had zich verheugd op een rustige dag.En: Thijs had been looking forward to a quiet day.Nl: Een dag waarin hij in stilte kon nadenken, de golven kon zien en de frisse lucht kon inademen.En: A day where he could think silently, watch the waves, and breathe in the fresh air.Nl: Femke was echter een en al energie.En: However, Femke was all energy.Nl: “Kom op, Thijs!En: “Come on, Thijs!Nl: Laten we schelpen zoeken!” riep ze, rennend naar de branding.En: Let's look for shells!” she called, running towards the surf.Nl: Thijs glimlachte en besloot mee te doen, om de pret niet te bederven.En: Thijs smiled and decided to join in, not wanting to spoil the fun.Nl: Terwijl ze langs de kustlijn liepen, voelde Thijs iets veranderen.En: As they walked along the coastline, Thijs felt something change.Nl: Zijn ademhaling werd zwaarder.En: His breathing became heavier.Nl: Hij stopte even, probeerde diep in te ademen.En: He stopped for a moment, trying to take a deep breath.Nl: Maar de koude lucht prikkelde zijn longen, en hij voelde een benauwdheid opkomen.En: But the cold air irritated his lungs, and he felt a tightness coming on.Nl: Hij tastte naar zijn inhaler, maar zijn zakken waren leeg.En: He reached for his inhaler, but his pockets were empty.Nl: Paniek sloeg toe.En: Panic set in.Nl: Femke merkte zijn worsteling op.En: Femke noticed his struggle.Nl: “Thijs, gaat het?” vroeg ze bezorgd, terwijl ze terug naar hem snelde.En: “Thijs, are you okay?” she asked worriedly, hurrying back to him.Nl: Thijs schudde zijn hoofd, niet in staat te spreken.En: Thijs shook his head, unable to speak.Nl: Hij wees naar zijn borst, probeerde adem te halen.En: He pointed to his chest, trying to breathe.Nl: Femke aarzelde niet.En: Femke didn't hesitate.Nl: “Blijf kalm,” zei ze, haar avontuurzin maakte plaats voor vastberadenheid.En: “Stay calm,” she said, her sense of adventure replaced by determination.Nl: “Ik ga hulp halen.” Ze speurde het strand af en zag een klein gebouwtje verderop.En: “I'll get help.” She scanned the beach and saw a small building further up.Nl: Het was het strandwachtershuisje, maar de deur was gesloten en er was niemand binnen.En: It was the lifeguard station, but the door was closed, and there was no one inside.Nl: “Verdorie, het is winter!En: “Darn, it's winter!Nl: Natuurlijk is het onbemand!” Femke mompelde terwijl ze haar telefoon tevoorschijn haalde.En: Of course, it's unmanned!” Femke muttered as she pulled out her phone.Nl: Gelukkig had ze een goede ontvangst.En: Fortunately, she had good reception.Nl: Ze belde direct 112 en legde de situatie uit, met haar ogen steeds op Thijs gericht, die worstelde om te ademen.En: She called 112 directly and explained the situation, keeping her eyes on Thijs, who was struggling to breathe.Nl: Binnen korte tijd arriveerde de hulp.En: Help arrived shortly.Nl: Ze gaven Thijs zuurstof en een inhalator.En: They gave Thijs oxygen and an inhaler.Nl: Langzaam voelde hij de druk op zijn borst afnemen.En: Slowly, he felt the pressure on his chest easing.Nl: Bij elke ademhaling voelde hij zich lichter.En: With each breath, he felt lighter.Nl: De medische hulpverleners waren professioneel en geruststellend.En: The medical responders were professional and reassuring.Nl: “Je bent gelukkig dat je een slimme nicht hebt,” grapte een van de ambulancier, terwijl Thijs opgelucht glimlachte naar Femke.En: “You're lucky to have a smart cousin,” joked one of the paramedics, as Thijs smiled gratefully at Femke.Nl: Ze knipoogde terug, zichtbaar opgelucht dat haar plan werkte.En: She winked back, visibly relieved that her plan worked.Nl: De rest van de dag bracht Thijs door in rust, nadenkend over wat er was gebeurd.En: The rest of the day, Thijs spent in peace, reflecting on what had happened.Nl: De gebeurtenis leerde hem dat hij beter voorbereid moest zijn.En: The incident taught him that he needed to be better prepared.Nl: Vanaf nu zou hij niet vergeten zijn inhaler mee te nemen, en hij begreep dat hulp vragen ook een teken van moed was.En: From now on, he wouldn't forget to bring his inhaler, and he understood that asking for help was also a sign of courage.Nl: Femke, die naast hem zat, keek naar de zee.En: Femke, sitting next to him, looked at the sea.Nl: “Mooi hier, hè?” zei ze, haar gebruikelijke energie weer terug.En: “Beautiful here, isn't it?” she said, her usual energy back.Nl: Thijs knikte.En: Thijs nodded.Nl: “Ja, heel mooi.En: “Yes, very beautiful.Nl: En vandaag nog een beetje meer.”En: And today, even a little more.” Vocabulary Words:gray: grijsheavy: zwaarsharp: scherpebite: bijtbother:

Ozempic is everywhere, and the conversation around it reveals far more than a debate about weight loss. Ray, E.Z., Mark, and Oscar step into the cultural moment surrounding GLP-1 medications, clarifying their medical purpose while asking more profound questions about motive, discipline, and identity. The guys acknowledge that these drugs have saved lives, especially for those with type two diabetes, but they focus on the growing trend of using them as shortcuts to self-control and image management. What emerges is a challenge to examine why so many are willing to chemically alter their bodies in pursuit of a certain look, and what that pursuit reveals about the desires shaping the heart.The discussion widens to the obsession with perfection and comfort that shapes modern life. The guys describe how we live in a filtered and photoshopped world where appearance becomes currency and praise becomes addictive. Ozempic, they argue, functions as a cultural artifact that exposes a lack of discipline and an unwillingness to embrace discomfort. This shortcut mindset shows up not only in health but also in faith, work, and ministry, where people want outcomes without formation. Discipline, once seen as virtuous, is now treated as oppressive, yet Scripture calls believers to discipline themselves for godliness rather than convenience.Contentment becomes a central theme as the guys contrast cultural messaging with a biblical worldview. Advertisers thrive by sowing dissatisfaction, but Scripture calls believers to gratitude, stewardship, and eternal perspective. Identity is often tied to the scale or the mirror, yet value is rooted in belonging to Christ. Oscar shares practical wisdom about food as fuel rather than a fixation, modeling balance rather than restriction or obsession. Ray emphasizes enjoying God's gifts without letting them rule us, reminding listeners that health is complex and cannot be reduced to appearance alone.The conversation closes with a call to examine judgment, pride, and purpose. The body is not a trophy to display but a temple to steward, and viewing it rightly frees believers from comparison and condemnation. Psalm 139 affirms God's intentional design, pushing back against cultural pressure to reshape what God has formed. True contentment comes from denying self, following Christ, and living for eternal glory rather than temporary praise. There are no shortcuts to sanctification, only grace, discipline, and a life oriented toward making Christ known rather than making ourselves admired. Send a textThanks for listening!

Donald Trump has the midterms on his mind. A few days ago he erupted in a wild tirade on Truth Social, raging about voter fraud and voter ID while urging Republicans to make them central in the elections. He's now pinned this rant to the top of his feed. Over the last 24 hours, he's been on a tear, elevating half a dozen other tweets on these topics. By “warning” that Republicans must centralize voter fraud, he's actually telling them to engage in mass voter suppression or perish. He has good reason to panic: One new poll has his approval at 38 percent. Another survey puts Democrats ahead in the House ballot matchup by six points. And polling averages find Trump's approval on immigration, his “good” issue, at abysmal lows. We talked to Lakshya Jain, head of political data for The Argument. He explains why the numbers are even worse for Trump if you dig into the details, particularly on the economy; why it's so unusual that Trump is tanking on two GOP issues, the economy and immigration; and why that is creating unexpected opportunities for Democrats.

February has been so crazy! With this annular solar eclipse, it feels like all hell is breaking loose. Here’s what’s happening astrologically. Is Everyone Panicking? My phone has been busy with texts, voice mails and calls where friends and clients are panicking and some wanted to run something by me. It's not light stuff. It's relationship strain, career panic, health worries, friendship fractures, spiritual doubt, or tech meltdowns. What the heck is happening? I thought this was going to be a good year with movement and the power to create? What’s fascinating is that the people reaching out are not normally dramatic. They tend to be savvy women who meditate, journal, regulate, and reflect. They usually handle life relatively easily. And yet this month, everyone's nervous system is on fire. Let's zoom out and take the wise-woman view which I sometimes call the 100-foot perspective. When you understand the energy, you stop personalizing it, and that alone can calm you down First let me say, don’t worry, the sky is not falling. But the astrology is wild and crazy. What is An Annular Solar Eclipse? February 17th brought an annular solar eclipse in Aquarius, known as the “ring of fire.” In this type of eclipse, the Moon doesn't completely block the Sun. The center is obscured, but a ring of light burns around the edges. A total eclipse feels like a blackout and reset. But, this is different. The core is hidden, while the edges are illuminated. You may not see the full picture or answer yet, but the pressure is lighting up what's out of alignment and not working. Aquarius governs community, technology, collective systems, online spaces, innovation, and the nervous system. It's about the group, and also the rebel who stands apart from it. Square with Uranus This is beyond my pay grade when it comes to astrology, but the eclipse forms a square to Uranus. That’s the planet of shocks, disruption, sudden change, and liberation through chaos. In astrology, a square creates tension and it pushes and exposes what isn't working. Now we have an Aquarian eclipse about collective structures and identity, under pressure from Uranus, which breaks what's rigid and outdated. That alone explains a lot. So, friendships may be strained, you might have tech glitches, and online spaces could seem volatile. And, you may have a strong sense that “I cannot keep doing this the same way.” Spiritually, think of it this way – the annular solar eclipse opens a portal, and Uranus is the lightning bolt shoving you through instead of letting you tiptoe at your own pace. No wonder everyone feels wired. Year of the Fire Horse But that's not all. In the Chinese zodiac, the 17th marked the start of the Fire Horse year. Fire Horse energy is bold, restless, fast-moving, impulsive, and freedom-driven. It does not like feeling trapped and pushes for action. That layers impulsive Fire Horse energy on top of an Aquarian eclipse that demands reinvention. And again, we're still not done. Saturn and Neptune Around February 20, Saturn and Neptune meet at zero degrees Aries, which is the very beginning of the zodiac. Think of it as the cosmic starting line. Saturn represents structure, responsibility, and reality. Neptune represents dreams, spirituality, illusion, and dissolution. When they come together, illusions dissolve and dreams get tested. And this is happening in Aries, the sign of identity, initiation, and self-definition. So if you've been thinking, “Who am I now?” or “What do I even believe?” or “Why doesn't my old coping strategy work?” you're not losing it. This is a deep archetypal reset. It can feel like the old container cracked, and the new one hasn't been built yet. And this is on top of that annular solar eclipse. Why This Feels Like a Crisis When I look at the conversations I've had, there's a pattern. It's not random chaos, but more like a threshold of energy. In other words, there’s an energy shift on the horizon. The Aquarius eclipse with Uranus activation is shaking collective and social structures. People are realizing they've over-given to groups and stayed in communities that drain them. People are waking up to reaalize they built businesses around systems that don't fit anymore, or curated identities that now feel warong or false. There may be a strong sense that insists, “I can't keep being this version of myself” that’s running through everything. Discernment and Wisdom Then, Saturn and Neptune in Aries step in and ask, “If not that…then who are you?” It’s too much! Let me explain this last piece. Neptune dissolves certainty while Saturn demands accountability. Spiritual bypassing won't work now. Neither will shifting into fantasy or hiding by over-working. And you can’t rescue everyone either. Yet, Fire Horse energy insists that you do something! That’s why people feel tempted to quit their job, leave the relationship, and burn bridges. Or you might want to make a giant leap to somewhere else. Some leaps will be aligned with your highest good, but many will be simply reactive. That’s why discernment is everything right now. Be wise with your choices. The Nervous System Factor Eclipse season is always trying, especially teh annular solar eclipse. Aquarius and Uranus both connect to the nervous system. When Uranus is activated, people feel wired, restless, and jittery. Sleep can get disrupted and you're likely mentally overstimulated. Plus, your old coping mechanisms stopped working. Yikes! Then Neptune makes things feel foggy and emotionally porous. So, there’s this very strange combination of high alert and low clarity. which explains why you might feel like something big is happening, but you don't know what it is or how to handle it. Yup, that's eclipse energy. Eclipses obscure before they reveal. With an annular eclipse, the center is blocked while the edges glow. You can't see the core answer yet, but the misalignments are lit up. The Spiritual Opportunity The Aquarian eclipse asks for a reset in your relationship with community and the future. What are you actually trying to create? Saturn and Neptune ask whether your dream is real enough to stand on. Aries demands to know who you are when everything external is stripped away. Fire Horse asks what you're willing to risk for freedom. Of course all of this can feel terribly destabilizing! Any identity shift triggers the ego's alarm system. OK, this could help a bit. You do not need to reinvent yourself overnight. Take time to refine your spiritual identity and distinguishing fantasy from your genuine intuition. What Can You Do? Your very first step is to regulate your nervous system before analyzing or doing anything. Before trying to figure anything out, be sure to calm your system and steady your body. 1. Calm the nervous system. Extend your exhale longer than your inhale. Hum for 3-minutes. Walk outside without your phone. Eat warm, simple food slowly. Reduce scrolling and screen time. Put limits on how much collective drama you consume. 2. Assess your communities. Notice which conversations leave you wired or resentful. Where do you feel obligated instead of connected? Tihs powerful reset does not require any dramatic exits. Sometimes just pulling back where you've been over-giving will do the trick. 3. Clear your energy. Before making big decisions, be sure to clear your energy field. You can smudge, take a detox bath, get some energy work. Then, decide the roles you're done with like the fixer, the peacemaker, the one who holds it all together. Consciously release what roles no longer serve you. 4. Get specific about what you want. Think about what you want. Do you want to collaborate or have a partnership? What kind of creative risk are you willing to take? What changes will you make to improve how you approach life and work? The good news is that fire energy when focused, is transformative. But when that same energy is scattered, it can burn everything. 5. Limit venting. This might surprise you but while venting can be good, you can’t let it go on too long. Go ahead and vent for 20-minutes, then take one grounding action. This way, you don’t risk causing yourself to spiral down any further. Small, steady choices are far better than panic-fueled leaps. If You’re Steady Now, Know This If right now you aren’t feeling all this craziness, you might be like me. I’m calm as long as the storm isn’t mine. Maybe you digest change faster than others. Yet, if everyone is calling you to talk things over, you cannot save everyone. Take a break and turn off your phone. Drink tea or read a book. Take a walk or a nap. Let yourself reset before showing up for others, so you don’t allow yourself to get drained. I got zapped when everyone called the same day! Crossing a Threshold February is a threshold month, which right now feels unstable because you're between identities. You are at a turning point, along with the entire collective. The best thing you can do is to slow down your decisions. Protect your attention and strengthen your body. Use the fire consciously and take your time. When the astrology is this crazy like this, become quiet and watchful. Listen more carefully to what is actually true for you. All your inner knowing to guide you through this rough patch. February is revealing what no longer fits. That revelation may be uncomfortable, but it is helpful to move you forward for your highest good. In the long run, this annular solar eclipse and all the other planetary alignments are deeply supportive of helping you create the life you are here to live and enjoy.

He breaks down a recent executive order related to elemental phosphorus and glyphosate-based herbicides, arguing that critics are misrepresenting the immunity language and ignoring its national security framing tied to domestic production and supply chain stability. Jon walks through Section 707 of the Defense Production Act to clarify what legal protections actually apply, pushing back against claims that Trump granted blanket immunity for cancer-related lawsuits. He emphasizes the importance of pursuing truth consistently, even when narratives fuel confirmation bias. The episode also tackles Prince Andrew's arrest, explaining that the reported charges relate to alleged misconduct in public office tied to trade documents—not sexual crimes connected to Epstein. Jon critiques how headlines are framed to imply otherwise, calling it part of a broader effort to weaponize perception. Throughout the show, he encourages viewers to resist clickbait, question narratives from all sides, and prioritize factual accuracy over emotional reaction.
In Season 4, Episode 17 of Altered State, Brad Zerbo and Zak Paine open with a sharp critique of legacy narratives, revisiting Eric Swalwell's past writings before pivoting into breaking developments in the Florida grand jury investigation tied to John Brennan and the broader “grand conspiracy” surrounding Russiagate. The hosts examine new subpoenas, alleged coordination among former intelligence officials, and what they view as mounting panic within establishment circles, including activity surrounding the Munich Security Conference. The conversation then turns into a wide-ranging retrospective on COVID-19, from Event 201 and vaccine rollouts to hospital protocols, media messaging, and personal experiences with illness and loss. Brad and Zak question official narratives about virus origins, vaccine safety, fertility impacts, and long-term health consequences, while reflecting on how the pandemic reshaped public trust and civil liberties. The episode closes with audience Q&A, discussion of community meetups, support for independent platforms like Rumble Wallet, and a preview of next week's 9/11-focused deep dive.

Because maturity.But before we derail entirely, we dig into an actual piece of Saint Louis history: the anniversary of the 1930 aviation stunt where a cow named Elm Farm Ollie was flown in a plane and milked mid-air — with the milk parachuted down to spectators.

In this episode, I break down the difference between mindfulness and distraction for anxiety so you can stop second-guessing yourself and start responding in ways that actually support long-term recovery.
My heart sank. My mind started to swirl. A friend who’d been helping set up my new laptop accidentally deleted all the photos and videos I’d transferred to it. Years of precious memories with family and friends were all gone in an instant. Panic set in. I’d never be able to recreate those cherished moments from past holidays, travels, and special occasions. Before sentimental me could have a complete meltdown, my friend said he was hopeful he could recover my files. Thankfully, a few agonizing hours later I was overjoyed to see my special files reappear. I waited anxiously for only a few hours, but the fear was real. Loss can be scary and painful. In chapter two of the book of Joel, the prophet is calling Judah to repentance after it has been devastated by a horde of locusts that destroyed the grain fields, vineyards, gardens, and trees. The prophet had warned the people of the impending consequences of their rebellion against God. But God hadn’t abandoned them. He would help and bring restoration if they placed their trust in God: “I will repay you for the years the locusts have eaten” (2:25). God restored Judah when they turned to Him. God wants to restore you as well. Whatever circumstances you’re in, you can turn to God and trust Him—knowing that He’s “the Lord your God, and that there is no other” (v. 27). He is faithful to help you recover from what was lost and bring you into a relationship with Him.
Ben and Harry discuss some fresh testing takeaways, as well as the noise around Verstappen's future and what it could all mean for F1. They also tackle new race start concerns, Barcelona's contract extension (kinda), and fire up the Panic-o-Meter to see which teams should be feeling calm heading into the season, and which should be starting to sweat...

Jesse Smithers was just a teenager when a street fight turned fatal, forcing him to accept a 10-year plea deal in the Minnesota prison system. In this interview, Jesse breaks down how he survived a decade behind bars only to face a new battle upon release: a system that wouldn't hire him. Pushed back into selling drugs to survive, Jesse reveals how a miraculous case dismissal became the final wake-up call he needed to leave the life of crime behind forever. _____________________________________________ #ianbick #prisonstories #minnesota #prisonsurvival #lockedin #truecrime #inmate #survival #prisonlife #minneapolis _____________________________________________ Thank you to FACTOR & AVA for sponsoring this episode: FACTOR: Head to https://factormeals.com/lockedin50off and use code lockedin50off to get 50% off your first Factor box PLUS free breakfast for 1 year.

Ozempic has become a cultural flashpoint that exposes deeper issues of discipline, identity, and the pursuit of approval. Ray, E.Z., Mark, and Oscar explore how GLP-1 medications, while medically helpful for some, are increasingly used as shortcuts to self-control in a culture obsessed with comfort, image, and instant results. The guys wrestle with the motives behind using these drugs, asking whether the desire is rooted in health or in the need for affirmation and praise, and they connect this trend to a broader pattern of wanting outcomes without formation. They emphasize that the body is a temple meant to serve the Lord rather than a trophy to impress others, calling believers to pursue contentment, practice godly discipline, and find lasting identity in Christ rather than in appearance or quick fixes. The conversation ultimately points listeners toward eternal mindedness, reminding them that true freedom and transformation come not from altering the body, but from being shaped by Christ.Send a textThanks for listening!
