In this conversation, we close the villain series with the Invisible Destroyer—also known as The Nothing from The NeverEnding Story. This archetype represents the paralysis of possibility, where imagination and inspiration remain ungrounded, slowly eroding both the self and those around it. We explore how this villain shows up as addiction, avoidance, and endless questioning, and how its transformation into the Architect brings creativity into embodied form. Along the way, we unpack how this arc blends qualities of the Enneagram 5 and 6, why Radiohead may be its unofficial soundtrack, and what it really takes to move from disappearing into inertia to choosing life, creation, and presence. We close with a vivid “Am I the Asshole?” example that grounds these themes in relationship dynamics.Timestamps00:00 — Welcome, final villain in the series00:15 — Invisible Destroyer, aka The Nothing00:30 — Archetypal map: Enneagram 9, head center, separation wound, house of addiction01:20 — Why it feels like “a combo of the 5 and 6”: evasive expert + divisive immortal01:45 — The NeverEnding Story and the Nothing as lack of human attention and imagination03:00 — Paralyzed by possibility: endless questions without action04:10 — The wake of destruction from inaction and addiction04:40 — Successful Antagonist: The Questioner, delaying decisions forever06:10 — Wounded Child: The Overwhelmed, never big enough to handle life07:00 — Covert Form: The Addict, disappearing through escapism08:10 — Hero: The Embodied, choosing incarnation, creation, and presence (with pleasure as a pathway)09:20 — Legend: The Architect, building grounded worlds from imagination10:00 — Why this arc belongs at the end of the villain cycle: outward, complex, foundational10:45 — Real-life dynamics: undervaluing presence and its destructive impact on relationships11:30 — AITA case study: birthday dinner, avoidance, blocking, and the Nothing's invisibility wound13:30 — Radiohead soundtrack: How to Disappear Completely, Lotus Flower, and the addictive undertones of disappearing17:00 — Closing thoughts: start with villains 1–6 before tackling the complexity of 7–9The arc at a glancePinnacle Villain: Invisible Destroyer (The Nothing) — Inspiration ungrounded, inertia that consumes.Successful Antagonist: The Questioner — Delays action indefinitely by demanding more certainty.Wounded Child: The Overwhelmed — Believes they can never be big enough to handle life.Covert Form: The Addict — Escapes through substances or compulsions, invisibly eroding relationships.Hero: The Embodied — Chooses presence, incarnation, creativity, and embodied pleasure.Legend: The Architect — Builds tangible worlds from imagination and dreams.Key ideas and languageThe Nothing: Inaction as destruction; the void left when imagination is unused.Addiction as covert destruction: Disappearing through self-harm, leaving collateral damage.Paralysis of possibility: Asking without acting, researching without deciding.Presence as medicine: Recognizing that showing up, even imperfectly, matters.Imagination grounded: Dreams are valuable only when incarnated into lived form.Practices for listenersPleasure as embodimentUse sexual or sensual pleasure as a direct route into your body.Notice how aliveness shifts when you commit to being present in sensation.The small action rulePick one tiny step toward creation daily, even if imperfect.Doing badly is better than not doing at all.Name the overwhelmWrite down three things you cannot do right now.Then choose one thing you can do and act on it.Reclaim visibilityAsk yourself: “Where am I pretending my presence doesn't matter?”Practice showing up where you assume no one cares.Case study insightsBirthday dinner scenario: Downplaying one's presence leads to relational collapse. The Invisible Destroyer thinks, “It doesn't matter if I'm there,” but others feel abandoned. Repair requires recognizing that presence itself carries value.Pull quotes“When imagination is left fallow, the Nothing takes over.”“Addiction is the covert face of disappearance.”“The Architect builds worlds. The Invisible Destroyer erases them by never beginning.”GlossaryHead Center: Pressure for inspiration; linked to Enneagram 9 and separation wound.Paralysis of possibility: An endless loop of questions that prevents movement.Architect: The Legend who incarnates dreams into grounded creation.MentionsThe NeverEnding Story (book vs. film) and the Childlike Empress's need for a new name.Radiohead songs: How to Disappear Completely and Lotus Flower as archetypal expressions.Where the Heart Is (film reference) for addiction and self-directed harm.Resources and next stepsTry the Inner Villain quiz to identify where you sit with this arc.Revisit earlier villains (1–6) before tackling the 7–9 arcs for deeper clarity.Explore the Invisible Destroyer playlist, including Radiohead's catalog, to feel the archetype somatically.CreditsHosts: Kristina Wiltsee and AnnaSeries: Inner Villain → Hero → LegendAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
Tonight's guest comes to us from New York State, Shiloh, sharing experiences that blur the line between the paranormal and the occult. In the woods, she once saw a man in flannel step behind a tree far too narrow to hide him and vanish. Later, she lay frozen beneath a shifting black mass that hovered over her bed for hours. Growing up within Pagan and Wiccan traditions, she also recalls rituals where “something” seemed to answer back, leaving her with questions about what had truly been summoned. This is a journey into fear, faith, and the unknown.More information on this episode on the podcast website:https://ufochroniclespodcast.com/ep-351-beyond-the-veil/Hidden Cults (Promo)It is a documentary-style podcast that digs deep into the world's most extreme, elusive, and explosive fringe groups.

Dr. Celine Gounder, Editor-at-Large, KFF Health News, explains how the U.S. vaccine enterprise could be damaged so swiftly by the Trump administration, with so little apparent resistance: it was a "shock and awe" blitz, while hesitation and fear dominated. "Silence was paralysis." It is too early to estimate the true scope of damage. The middle tier of professionals in government and scientific research has certainly paid a high price. While Secretary Kennedy's firing of CDC Director Monarez was a thunderclap, it remains to be seen if or when President Trump changes his view of the Secretary's performance. What lies ahead? Regional alliances of states setting policy on vaccines will be "the laboratories of public health." The Supreme Court may be called upon to revisit the balance between individual liberty versus public health. If pediatric hospitals are overrun with children suffering from dangerous vaccine-preventable illnesses, public outcry could escalate.
From spinal paralysis to global healer, Dan Metcalfe's story is one you'll never forget. After surviving a catastrophic spinal injury and later a traumatic brain injury, Dan refused to accept a life of limitation. Instead, he pioneered the Total Balance Program—helping over 70,000 people worldwide reconnect their brain and body, break free from pain, and unlock their natural ability to heal. In this episode, Dan shares his unbelievable journey, the 7 Pillars of Natural Health, and how you can move from survival to thriving—no matter what you've been through.

Your morning briefing, the business news you need in just 15 minutes. On today's podcast: (1) Treasuries dropped, following a slump in longer-maturity European debt, with the US 30-year yield climbing toward 5% at the start of a month historically tough for long bonds. (2) UK markets suffered a fresh selloff on Tuesday, with the yield on long-dated bonds hitting the highest since 1998 and the pound tumbling, as pressure mounted on Prime Minister Keir Starmer to win the confidence of investors in the government’s budget. (3) US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent is said to be planning to start interviewing candidates this Friday to replace Jerome Powell as Federal Reserve Chair, according to the Wall Street Journal. (4) Chinese President Xi Jinping projected defiance at a once-a-decade military parade, showcasing the nation’s growing firepower and diplomatic influence alongside his closest international allies. (5) Alphabet’s Google will be required to share online search data with rivals while avoiding harsher penalties, including the forced sale of its Chrome business, a judge ruled in the biggest US antitrust case in almost three decades. (6) As NATO’s biggest defense spender relative to the size of its rapidly expanding economy and a staunch ally of Ukraine, Europe arguably needs a strong Poland more than ever. But instead, there’s the threat of increasing paralysis in Warsaw.

Much has been written about political polarisation in the United States, but no one has examined it through the lens of recent U.S. history. There is nothing deterministic about how we became polarised, and it happened more recently than many think. To fully understand the problem, we must take the long view, the perspective provided by history, with its attention to change over time and the role of contingency. That's what The Path to Paralysis does. The book illuminates the broad forces that have shaped and reshaped American society and politics since the mid-1960s: the shift from an industrial to an information economy that produced economic inequality not seen since the 1920s; dramatic, unsettling changes in gender and sexuality; sharp conflict between those who embrace the culture of personal freedom that was a legacy of the 1960s and politically mobilised White evangelicals; persistent racial discord that transformed Southern politics and shattered the New Deal coalition; and dramatic changes in communication that transformed broadcasting into narrowcasting, creating alternate news and truths. These developments had their origin in the late 1960s and have generated sharp political conflict for six decades. But they didn't overwhelm the system until the 21st century. Ronald Reagan moved American politics to the right, but Republicans and Democrats forged compromise on issues as diverse as economic policy, civil rights, and immigration. After the culture wars of the 1980s and 1990s, Bill Clinton and George W. Bush tacked to the centre and sought bipartisan solutions to issues like welfare, education and immigration. Sharp conflict and governance were compatible. The tipping point was the election of the nation's first Black president and the economic collapse he inherited. Fault lines of religion, region, gender, sexual orientation, class, education and, especially, race widened. People chose sides and identified enemies, the number of true swing voters shrunk, fewer states and congressional districts were competitive, the two major parties became more monolithic, and appeals to the base drove strategy and what passed for policy. It was an atmosphere that provided fertile ground for a demagogue whose norm-busting appeals to White grievance and Christian Nationalism, as well as to regional and class resentment strengthened his appeal to an angry base and threatened the peaceful transition of power, the bedrock of American democracy for more than two centuries.

We're revisiting our episode with Nora McInerny in honor of National Grief Awareness Day. Nora McInerny (Terrible, Thanks for Asking podcast, author of Bad Vibes Only) helps us build understanding around grief by taking us through her own grief journey. She discusses what her life was like before suffering extreme loss, what happened upon receiving her husband's terminal brain cancer diagnosis, and how she dealt with a miscarriage and the loss of her father and husband weeks apart. Nora and Mayim consider the struggle of dealing with people's expectations of your feelings during mourning periods, why it may be difficult to relate to people who are moving through grief, and the importance of allowing oneself time to truly grieve. They discuss reasons why mourning is so specific and individualistic, productivity associated with grief, and the benefits of finding a support group. Mayim breaks down the typical grief timeline, its physical symptoms, and its potential impact on every area of one's life.

In this week's Huddle Breakdown Extra Time, Martin, James, and Alan dissect Celtic's painful Champions League exit to Kairat, questioning Brendan Rodgers' tactics, team selection, and lack of adjustments on a dreadful pitch. They highlight the squad's glaring weaknesses, transfer paralysis at board level, and what it means for Celtic's European ambitions. With penalties missed, key players underperforming, and Rodgers outcoached, the lads pull no punches in analysing one of Celtic's most frustrating European failures. They also look ahead to the Glasgow Derby, with guest Patrick Caskie offering a Rangers perspective, as the focus shifts to domestic dominance amid continental disappointment.Patrick's Substack can be found at: https://patrickcaskie.substack.com/.Want to support the channel? - https://huddlebreakdown.comLike this video and want more content like it?

Host: Darryl S. Chutka, M.D. Guest: Jacob K. Dey, M.D. Bell's Palsy is the most common cause of 7th cranial nerve dysfunction and clinically, it has a relatively abrupt onset resulting in unilateral facial paralysis. Fortunately, the majority of patients recover completely without treatment. Unfortunately, in some cases, the facial paralysis is persistent, and surgical intervention may be indicated to help restore facial symmetry. When do patients reach maximum improvement in their facial asymmetry? What is facial synkinesis? What are the various surgical options and how is it determined which one is best for the patient? The topic for this podcast is “Correcting Facial Paralysis Associated with Bell's Palsy” and these are some of the questions I'll be asking my guest, facial plastic surgeon, Jacob K. Dey, M.D., from the Division of Facial Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery at the Mayo Clinic. Connect with us and learn more here: https://ce.mayo.edu/online-education/content/mayo-clinic-podcasts

Much has been written about political polarisation in the United States, but no one has examined it through the lens of recent U.S. history. There is nothing deterministic about how we became polarised, and it happened more recently than many think. To fully understand the problem, we must take the long view, the perspective provided by history, with its attention to change over time and the role of contingency. That's what The Path to Paralysis does. The book illuminates the broad forces that have shaped and reshaped American society and politics since the mid-1960s: the shift from an industrial to an information economy that produced economic inequality not seen since the 1920s; dramatic, unsettling changes in gender and sexuality; sharp conflict between those who embrace the culture of personal freedom that was a legacy of the 1960s and politically mobilised White evangelicals; persistent racial discord that transformed Southern politics and shattered the New Deal coalition; and dramatic changes in communication that transformed broadcasting into narrowcasting, creating alternate news and truths. These developments had their origin in the late 1960s and have generated sharp political conflict for six decades. But they didn't overwhelm the system until the 21st century. Ronald Reagan moved American politics to the right, but Republicans and Democrats forged compromise on issues as diverse as economic policy, civil rights, and immigration. After the culture wars of the 1980s and 1990s, Bill Clinton and George W. Bush tacked to the centre and sought bipartisan solutions to issues like welfare, education and immigration. Sharp conflict and governance were compatible. The tipping point was the election of the nation's first Black president and the economic collapse he inherited. Fault lines of religion, region, gender, sexual orientation, class, education and, especially, race widened.

This week on The Back of the Pack Podcast, we lace up for the Spencer C. Duncan “Make It Count” 5K in Gardner, KS — a powerful community event that honors a fallen hero and reminds us why we run. But after crossing that finish line, we shift gears and talk about something a little heavier: what happens when we sign up for a big, exciting goal… and then totally freeze. Yep, we're talking goal paralysis — that weird brain loop where motivation vanishes and the training plan becomes a ghost you're afraid to open. Host Kyle shares his own story of signing up for his first 50-miler (and immediately pretending it didn't happen), and dives into the psychology behind why runners sometimes stall out after the sign-up high fades. From perfectionism to fear of failure, we break it down in real, relatable terms — and offer practical tips to break the freeze and get moving again. This one's for anyone who's ever looked at their race calendar and thought: “What have I done?”
Pastor Dru Rodriguez highlights how anxious, racing thoughts can trap us in a mundane routine and points to humble obedience before God as the path to freedom, drawing from Peter's exhortation to cast all our worries on Him who cares for us.

Topics include: How paralysis reshaped Courtney's understanding of health and identity The role of mindset and nervous system regulation in recovery Why self-advocacy is non-negotiable in complex illness The double-edged sword of chronic empathy and its link to inflammation Finding humor and meaning in the most unexpected moments Stay tuned for part two next week.
Editor Brian Kuan Wood talks to Evan Calder Williams about his e-flux journal essay series, “On Paralysis.” Recorded in May 2025 before the launch of e-flux journal issue #152, the conversation discusses stoppage, sabotage, disability, delay, and damage, as well as the critical tools the “On Paralysis” series finds in the hidden intimacies between limited movement and expressive power. Read all four installments of the series here: Part One, Part Two, Part Three, and Part Four. Paralysis has become a term and idea inseparable from contemporary understandings of subjectivity, infrastructure, politics, and war. Conjuring associations of indecision, physical immobility, and trauma, it names a breakdown of the normal processes of circulation and information that promise systemwide health and seamless flow. But what if the very smoothness of these circuits of production is precisely what debilitates human bodies and broader systems of relay and exchange? And what are the potentials for refusal and unexpected agency that can be found in the interval when nothing works like it's supposed to? Evan Calder Williams is an associate professor at the Center for Curatorial Studies for Bard College, where he also teaches in the Human Rights program. He is the author of the books Combined and Uneven Apocalypse; Roman Letters; Shard Cinema; and, forthcoming with Sternberg Press, Inhuman Resources. He is the translator, with David Fernbach, of Mario Mieli's Towards a Gay Communism and is a Contributing Editor to e-flux journal, as well as a former member of the editorial collective of Viewpoint Magazine.
Ever feel like you're working hard but getting nowhere? You're not alone—and you might be stuck in a productivity trap, not a purpose-driven plan. In this episode of The Stacking Benjamins Show, we tackle the big one: how to avoid wasting your life. (No pressure.) Joe Saul-Sehy kicks things off with a tongue-in-cheek nod to all the ways we fritter away time—before pivoting into a power-packed conversation on building meaningful goals and avoiding common life derailers. He's joined by two all-star minds in money and behavior: Paula Pant from Afford Anything, who reminds us that "you can afford anything—but not everything," and Jordan Grumet from Earn & Invest, who offers the life-and-death perspective (literally—he's a hospice doctor) on why we need to act now, not later. Together with OG and Doug, the roundtable unpacks six common ways people unknowingly waste their lives, including: Being "busy" instead of effective Letting fear of failure hijack your plans Overthinking every move Paralysis from too many choices Constant hustle with no progress Indecision dressed up as careful planning You'll hear hard-earned lessons, subtle mindset shifts, and tips for creating financial and personal momentum. Plus: The surprising link between indecision and regret, backed by Dr. Ellen Langer's research Smart strategies for eliminating distractions and taking better action The difference between motion and movement—especially when it comes to your goals and your money And, of course, we sprinkle in some classic basement banter, a rowdy trivia throwdown, and Joe's favorite kind of weekend preview (the kind where no one actually follows their own advice). Why this episode is worth your time: Whether you're staring down your 2025 goals or still recovering from a rough Q1, this is your shot of clarity. No judgment—just real talk from people who've been there, made the spreadsheet, and occasionally lit it on fire.
