Tom Ginsburg is the Leo Spitz Distinguished Service Professor of International Law, Professor of Political Science, and Faculty Director of the Malyi Center for the Study of Institutional and Legal Integrity and the Forum for Free Inquiry and Expression at the University of Chicago. In this week's conversation, Yascha Mounk and Tom Ginsburg explore different approaches to constitutions in the United States, Europe, and beyond, the advantages and disadvantages of the U.S. political system, and how to protect the First Amendment. Polarization is at an all-time high. It can feel daunting—perhaps even misguided—to engage in meaningful dialogue with those holding starkly different views. What does it mean to champion pluralism in such a moment? Persuasion's new series on the future of pluralism, generously supported by the Arthur Vining Davis Foundations, features longform essays and podcast interviews that make the case for civic dialogue and highlight inspiring examples of it in practice.

Have you ever experienced analysis paralysis? This describes the feeling of anxiety you get when you have so much information that any action you take feels like the wrong one, so you end up not doing ANYTHING. It's really no wonder that the average person can feel overwhelmed by information, options, and choice. Every year in the United States, for example, 30,000 new products are released into the market. The average American grocery store, so not a superstore like a Walmart, just a normal sized grocery store, has more than 30,000 options on their shelves at any given time.And the average Walmart, well, it has more than 120,000 products.Everywhere we turn we're just surrounded by more and more choice.But is that a good thing?Join host Jen Clinehens (MS/MBA) as we explore the Choice Overload Effect: How too many options can actually have negative consequences for our brains, businesses, and lives.

Anne's visit with Mrs. Smith continues, and so do Mrs. Smith's revelations about the truth of Mr. Elliot's character. The Smiths were acquainted with Mr. Elliot long before this current moment in Bath, and that means that Mrs. Smith knows much more than Anne realized. Behind Mr. Elliot's friendliness, there is calculation, cunning, and trickery, with a bit of being a spendthrift to boot. Anne knew there was more to Mr. Elliot than met the eye, but the extent of it all astounds her. As she processes these new discoveries, let her story help you process your day and move into a night of restful sleep.-----Welcome to the Jane Austen Bedtime Stories podcast!

Tonight, we shall read the next part to Persuasion, the last novel fully completed by Jane Austen, and published in 1817. The story concerns Anne Elliot, an Englishwoman whose family moves in order to lower their expenses, by renting their home to an Admiral and his wife. Austen began writing Persuasion in 1815, during a period of declining health, yet the novel's style shows a maturity and restraint distinct from her earlier works. Many readers have noted its quieter, more autumnal tone—reflecting themes of second chances, endurance, and the slow rekindling of love. It was published posthumously along with Northanger Abbey, and stands today as one of her most poignant achievements. In the last episode, Anne is thrilled to sense Captain Wentworth's rekindled interest in her at the concert. Mr. Elliot's vying interest in her apparently leaves Wentworth to storm out early in vexation, and leaves Anne in astonishment. — read by 'V' — Sign up for Snoozecast+ to get expanded, ad-free access by going to snoozecast.com/plus!

As they challenge the widely-held belief in an attention-based economy, they explore how being intentional about the signals we emit can lead to a more fulfilling and conscious way of living. From the power of positivity to the uncharted realms of unconscious marketing, this discussion opens new vistas on what it means to be active participants in our own lives. Alex and Alison also venture into the transformative impact of AI on our mental landscape, inviting you to contemplate its profound implications.Turning the lens to marketing and influence, this episode dissects the art of emotional compression and its ability to resonate with an audience's deepest aspirations. Alex shares insights on shifting from self-promotion to becoming a reflective mirror of potential, and how this transformation can elevate business narratives. He delves into the psychological underpinnings of communication, emphasizing emotional logic as the cornerstone of decision-making. By weaving compelling stories that align with fundamental human needs, Alex illustrates how to craft messages that foster natural agreement and business growth, bridging the gap between mere information and meaningful connection.As Alex and Alison navigate the evolving landscape of authenticity and creativity, they ponder the rise of AI influencers and the enduring value of genuine human content.

The mission to defeat mediocrity invites you to engage and connect, using the power of community to inspire and motivate one another toward greater heights.Key highlights:Resonance and Personal BrandingMastering Emotional Compression in MarketingHarnessing Creativity Through FictionNavigating the Nervous System WarInternal Exploration and Personal GrowthOvercoming Fear and Playing SmallConnect with Alex Vonderhaar:Instagram: @alex.vonderhaarConnect with Alison:Instagram: @alisonanswers | @lagercounselingWebsite: LagerCounseling.comYouTube: Alison AnswersFacebook: Alison Lager Lcsw CasacPurchase Alison's book: “The Wake Up Call”Alison Answers Facebook Group: Join HEREWomen of Excellence FB group: Join HERE

"She has many rare & charming qualities, but Sobriety is not one of them."—Jane Austen, Jack and AliceDrunken brawls. Cannibalism. Heroines behaving very badly. Such mayhem may seem worlds apart from the sedate drawing rooms of Austen's novels, but it is par for the course in her teenage writings. In this episode, we welcome Lesley Peterson for an exploration of the whimsical world of Austen's juvenilia—the hilarious and often absurd stories she penned in her youth. Along the way, we'll see how young Jane, growing up in a lively, intellectual household, was already testing boundaries and sharpening the wit that would one day captivate readers everywhere.Lesley Peterson is the editor of the Journal of Juvenilia Studies and, before her retirement, was Professor of English at the University of North Alabama. She has published numerous articles in JASNA's journals, Persuasions and Persuasions On-Line, and is a frequent presenter at JASNA's Annual General Meetings. In 2024, she served as a JASNA Traveling Lecturer and was awarded a fellowship through the JASNA International Visitor Program.For a transcript and show notes, visit https://jasna.org/austen/podcast/ep27/.*********Visit our website: www.jasna.orgFollow us on Instagram and FacebookSubscribe to the podcast on our YouTube channelEmail: podcast@jasna.org

Duty to one's family and to one's heart is on the line as final declarations of intent and love are made. A letter slipped covertly into a palm features a renewed declaration of constant, undying love. Air is cleared and the pride that kept lovers apart is thrown away; both parties feel that in finding their way to each other, they are happier than they deserve. Lady Russell comes to terms with Anne choosing for herself whilst Elizabeth's remains on the marriage market. Mrs Clay's designs on Sir Walter are foiled, yet both she and Mr Elliot may still get all they desire, just not at the expense of another's happiness. Captain Wentworth seeks to assist Mrs Smith in regaining much of what her husband had been tricked out of, and she and Anne remain fast friends. Our narrator concludes how love and honour will always win the day, remarking on the virtues of the Naval profession.  This episode covers Chapters 23 and 24 of Jane Austen's Persuasion.We hope you enjoyed this episode of Ballarat National Theatre's adaptation of Jane Austen's Persuasion and will join us each week until all the episodes have been released.

There's a type of fabric that looks like leather, feels like leather, but isn't leather (or made from any animal materials). For decades, it was called "Pleather" – a combination of the words "plastic" and "leather" – and it was considered cheap, tacky, and artificial.But today, that same material is a $41 billion market.What changed? The name. Now we call Pleather  "Vegan Leather."And that simple reframing transformed not just how people perceive the material, but how they feel when they're wearing it.Join host Jen Clinehens (MS/MBA) to explore the fascinating story of how Pleather became Vegan Leather… How the meaning we attach to a product or experience defines its value…And how you can use this strategy to transform perceptions of your own products and brand.⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐Please take 12 seconds to rate and review the podcast because it helps us find new listeners ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐COACHING✅ To learn more about working one-on-one with Jen and book your free Connection Call, visit https://www.choicehacking.com/coaching-inviteThis month I have 3 spots available - first come, first serve.

After reconnecting with Captain Wentworth at the concert, Anne is on cloud nine. But things are about to turn in a very different direction, thanks to some revelations from Anne's old friend Mrs. Smith. You see, Mrs. Smith has heard through the grapevine that Anne and Mr. Elliot are getting close - but once she realizes that Anne has no intention of marrying Mr. Elliot, Mrs. Smith is compelled to reveal the truth about her acquaintance with him. It's a truth so long and sordid that today's story is only the first half of the tale. Pull up your covers and rest your head on your pillow as you let Mrs. Smith's revelations fill your mind and help you into a night of gentle and relaxing slumber.-----Welcome to the Jane Austen Bedtime Stories podcast!

Meta laatste miljardeninvestering in de ontwikkeling van AI lijkt bepaald geen vruchten af te werpen, op basis van berichten dan diverse Amerikaanse media. In deze Tech Update vertelt Joe van Burik erover. De integratie met Scale AI, waarvan Meta voor ruim 14 miljard 49 procent van de aandelen kocht, lijkt voor veel frictie te zorgen. Ook zijn sommige van de AI-ontwikkelaars die de afgelopen tijd zijn aangetrokken (naar verluidt voor bonussen tot wel 100 miljoen of zelfs 300 miljoen dollar) na enkele maanden alweer weggegaan. Verder in deze Tech Update: ChatGPT is te manipuleren door trucjes te gebruiken uit het boek 'Influence: The Psychology of Persuasion' van professor Robert Cialdini De Democratische gouverneur van Californië, Gavin Newson, ontvangt miljoenen steun van Netflix-oprichter Gavin Newsom in zijn strijd tegen de Republikeinen See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

It's an important part of many NLP methods and processes, and can often be the key skill to making those processes effective. It's also a very effective stand-alone tool for enhancing our own communication ability. BUT most people think of the mechanics of MPL, rather than MPL as an art.MPL is a critical and basic skill that communication is based on. No one is going anywhere if you aren't good at matching and pacing.Key Points:·       Matching, Pacing, and Leading work together·       If you lead too quickly or too strongly, you can lose rapport and will need to reestablish it through matching and pacing.·       You can match, pace, and lead someone in a brief interaction or over a series of longer interactions.·       You can apply these concepts with your friends and family, work relationships, sales interactions, consulting work, presentations, coaching, therapy, etc.·       Doing this successfully can reduce resistance to new ideas and perspectives, increase choice, and help us and others get what we want more easily.The podcast also describes an exercise to help strengthen your skills. Support the show

The cinematic clash continues in Part 2 of The My Five Cents Podcast episode, "Movies That Changed the Culture." Hosts SoSo Juv, HLS, and Logical Genius return to the ring, joined again by award-winning filmmaker and cultural visionary Jaze Bordeaux, for the persuasion round—where egos flare and film opinions get tested. In this segment, the gloves come off as the hosts and guest engage in cross-examination, poking holes in each other's lists and defending their picks like true cinephiles. Jaze, known for his brilliant storytelling in EFC and Genesis, challenges the crew to back up their claims—and ultimately decides who deserves third place and who takes the top spot as this week's culture-shifting champion. But the debate doesn't end there—Jaze delivers his own 5 Cents on the topic, revealing the films he believes truly transformed society. Then, the crew dives into the People's Poll, spotlighting fan favorites and bold takes from the audience, and wraps with the AI Poll, where artificial intelligence throws in its algorithmic opinion on what movies changed the game.

Because brainwashing affects both the world and our observation of the world, we often don't recognize it while it's happening―unless we know where to look. As Rebecca Lemov writes in her new book The Instability of Truth, “Brainwashing erases itself.” What we call brainwashing is more common than we think; it is not so much what happens to other people as what can happen to anyone. In her work, Lemov exposes the myriad ways our minds can be controlled against our will, from the brainwashing techniques used against American POWs in North Korea to the “soft” brainwashing of social media doomscrolling and behavior-shaping. Rebecca Lemov is a historian of science at Harvard University and has been a visiting scholar at the Max Planck Institute. Her research explores data, technology, and the history of human and behavioral sciences. Her new book is The Instability of Truth: Brainwashing, Mind Control, and Hyper-Persuasion.

What do a K-drama star, a yearning firefighter, and a Jane Austen retelling have in common? Today's guest, Jayci Lee, reimagines Persuasion in her newest romance Give Me a Reason—and trust me, the angst is delicious. We talk second chances, wine collections, nipple covers (yes, really), and why apple pie and Prosecco are her celebration staples. Plus, she dishes on her upcoming K-spirited fantasy series and navigating publishing with heart and hustle. You do not want to miss this one.

History provides a developmental framework for understanding the evolution of ideas, allowing us to trace their origins and track societal impact. Dr. Rebecca Lemov is a Professor of History of Science at Harvard University and a visiting scholar at the Max Planck Institute for the History of Science. Her timely 2025 book, The Instability of Truth: Brainwashing, Mind Control, and Hyper-Persuasion, offers valuable insights into how the past might influence our future surrounding the topic of Mind Control. The Cold War era saw these techniques in the CIA's secret MK-Ultra program (1953-1973), which investigated potential offensive and defensive applications of mind control for military purposes. Lemov brought up Dr. Robert Jay Lifton's work on treating PTSD and different types of “psychic numbing”. This might be the type of numbing one might experience in a holocaust type situation, or “ordinary numbing”. She said, “What you're saying, a kind of dissociation or hypnotic, you know, out of body. In a sense, you're literally out of your body, sometimes when you're infinitely scrolling, or doomscrolling.” Her work delves into the hidden history of these influence methods while exploring their disturbing implications for our AI-driven future, particularly focusing on the emerging development of hyper-persuasion. These include advanced personalization, precise emotional targeting, and behavior prediction. We dissected the mixed blessings of social media and how it can provide some power to the individual voice, as long as the algorithm is designed ethically for pro democratic influence. This is a very important work which all citizens will find to be beneficial. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

It's concert night, and it seems like all of Bath is there to see and be seen. But there's just one person's whose presence matters to Anne: Captain Wentworth.

What transforms reasonable people into an angry mob? Why are we so eager to dismiss those who disagree with us as inherently evil? These are questions which Jonathan Haidt has spent his career trying to answer. One of the world's most influential social psychologists and a member of Persuasion's Board of Advisors, he argues that a lot of recent cultural shifts are encouraging emotional fragility rather than resilience. A professor of ethical leadership at NYU's Stern School of Business, Haidt seeks to employ moral psychology to promote dialogue rather than division. In this week's episode of The Good Fight, Yascha Mounk sits down with Jonathan Haidt to discuss psychological differences between the left and the right, the human tendency to discriminate in favor of the in-group, and how to build a less tribal culture and country.

The conversation explores how narratives are seeded, legitimized, and weaponized in US and UK politics, drawing on case studies involving Ukraine, authoritarian networks, and digital propaganda.

Most founders dream of creating a product so good it sells itself. That's the promise of product-led growth: customers discover, share, and adopt your product with little to no sales effort. Sadly that's rarely the reality. In the early stages, almost every founder has to do the hard, unglamorous work of founder-led growth: building trust, making offers and facing rejection. In this episode, you will learn from Vijay Rajendran, author of The Funding Framework: Secure Startup Funding With Confidence. Vijay previously led portfolio value at 500 Global, a venture capital firm with $2.7 billion under management, where he supported startups in more than 80 countries.  Vijay has helped hundreds of founders grow, scale, and raise capital.  Listen to learn: The difference between founder-led and product-led growth — and when each approach works best. How design partnerships and pilots can win your first customers (and even get them to fund product development). Why “influence” is a better mindset than “sales” — and how listening to customers creates trust. Stories from Airbnb to enterprise startups that reveal what growth really looks like behind the scenes. Whether you're launching your first product, leading innovation inside a corporate, or backing founders as an investor, this episode is for you.

Discover the faith-based key to breaking weight loss cycles by becoming fully persuaded in God's promises.You don't struggle with weight loss because you're just too weak around food, because you're a foodie, or because God ISN'T showing up for you. You struggle because you've been persuaded of the wrong things. The enemy has whispered counterfeit persuasions for so long that many women have built their lives around lies like, “You'll never change,” or “This is just who you are.”But the Lord showed me something life-changing: full persuasion makes way for full provision.In this episode, I'll take you face-to-face with the 2 versions of yourself: the one still chained by counterfeit persuasion, and the one fully persuaded in Christ, radiant, free, and walking in victory. You'll discover why diets and willpower never work, how the enemy's voice has subtly influenced your thinking, and what shifts when you finally become convinced of God's promises for your body and your life.This is not just teaching, it's revelation. If you've felt stuck, defeated, or hopeless in your weight loss journey, get ready for conviction, holy frustration, and the profound hope of freedom. The breakthrough you've been praying for is closer than you think.Because when you are fully persuaded… you step into full provision...even in weight loss.Early Enrollment linkTo watch this via my YouTube Channel._________Christian weight lossFaith based weight lossSpiritual weight lossWeight loss God's wayChristian life coachingChristian health and wellnessMind renewal weight lossBible and weight lossWhy can't I lose weight ChristianStuck in weight lossStruggling to lose weight Christian womanChristian women weight loss strugglesBreak free from dietingWeight loss frustration faithFull persuasion full provisionBreakthrough in weight lossFaith and fitness ChristianFat loss God's waySpiritual freedom weight lossChristian mindset shift for weight lossChristian women health journeyHow to lose weight with GodChristian women weight loss journeyRenewing your mind for weight lossBiblical weight loss breakthroughChristian weight loss coaching programSeeker's Method weight loss discipleshipSherrie Kapala

The ancient art of rhetoric has shaped political policies, influenced social movements, structured legal arguments, and molded cultural narratives throughout history. It's been used for three thousand years to persuade other people to change their lives.But what if you could use it to persuade yourself?My guest today says you can. Jay Heinrichs is the author of Aristotle's Guide to Self-Persuasion, and he explains how the same rhetorical techniques that great leaders and orators have used for millennia can be turned inward to help you change your life. We discuss how to identify your "soul" as your internal audience, use the concept of kairos to turn chaos into opportunity, create hyperbolic moonshot goals that inspire action even if you fall short, and employ ethos, pathos, and logos to achieve the habits and goals you aspire to. Along the way, we talk about how Jay used these self-leadership tools to go from barely being able to walk to attempting an athletic feat physiologists told him was impossible.Resources Related to the PodcastJay's previous appearance on the AoM podcast: Episode #639 — Why You Should Learn the Lost Art of RhetoricAoM series on Rhetoric 101Connect With Jay HeinrichsJay's websiteArgueLabSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Captain Wentworth is in Bath. There's plenty of things going on around Anne, but this is the only thing that matters, and the only one that she can think about. After running into Captain Wentworth at a shop, Anne's mind is full of thoughts of him - When will she see him in Bath? How has he changed since Uppercross and Louisa Musgrove? How will Lady Russell react when she sees him again? Will he be at the upcoming concert evening? Now that Anne and Captain Wentworth are in proximity once more, she can't help but think of him, and as she does, let her thoughts soothe your mind and ease you into a night of restful slumber.-----Welcome to the Jane Austen Bedtime Stories podcast!

Tonight, we shall read the next part to “Persuasion”, the last novel fully completed by Jane Austen, and published in 1817. The story concerns Anne Elliot, an Englishwoman whose family moves in order to lower their expenses, by renting their home to an Admiral and his wife.  In the last episode, Anne navigates Bath's tightly woven social circuits—frequenting parties and strolling the streets—she continues to hope for a meaningful conversation with Wentworth, while contending with Lady Russell's lingering disapproval and Mr. Elliot's calculated charm. When a concert presents itself as a likely opportunity, Anne sets aside a visit to her friend Mrs. Smith in hopes of finally seeing Wentworth again—and possibly learning the truth of his feelings once and for all. — read by 'V' — Sign up for Snoozecast+ to get expanded, ad-free access by going to snoozecast.com/plus!
