This week, I speak with Cathal McNaughton, a well-respected international photojournalist and Pulitzer Prize winner. We discuss his biographical film I Dream in Photos, his recent photography in Ukraine that focuses on ordinary life continuing alongside the war brought to their country, and the role family plays in shaping how and why he photographs.  Along the way, Cathal shares a personal discovery that has refocused attention on him, after a career spent observing others. It becomes a conversation about self-understanding and what it means to keep making photographs when the relationship with the camera itself is being questioned. From the mailbag, Richard Rawlings pairs photographs with prose as walking helps him appreciate nature, Marilyn Davies nudges anyone still circling a 365 feature, to just start, even if February becomes the starting line, and Jaki G heads celebrates Lisbon's street photo festival, and walking with the celebrated Phil Penman who swapped his adopted New York for the Portuguese capital. Read more about our photographic adventures on our photography travel website, The Journey Beyond. Links to all guests and features will be on the show page, my sincere thanks to our Extra Milers, without whom we wouldn't be walking each week and Arthelper.ai, giving photographers smart tools to plan, promote, and manage your creative projects more easily.

Je vais jamais vous encourager à faire un truc immoral… Mais bon, c'est vrai que parfois on peut ressentir une pointe d'admiration pour des voleurs et des escrocs, lorsqu'ils font des trucs dingues, inattendus et brillants. Et aujourd'hui, je voulais vous parler d'un Portugais, dont le casse a changé l'histoire de son pays, puisqu'il a volé la banque. Non non, il n'a pas braqué “une” banque : il a volé LA banque, elle-même ! Mieux que ça : il ne l'a pas vraiment volée, il se l'est fait offrir… par une autre banque ! Aujourd'hui, je vous parle d'Arturo Alves dos Reis !Bonne écoute !

In a moment when the world feels unstable and unsettling, this conversation names the truth of the times and explores how we are being called to lead with greater presence, courage and boldness. A question we explore: How do you want to be shaped by this era — not hardened by it? I also share the deeper vision behind the Portugal Camino Retreat and the power of traveling in community with women who inspire and expand you. And you'll hear from Faith Sterling as she shares the life-changing impact last year's Iceland Retreat had on her, her health and her work - and why she's a YES for the upcoming Portugal Camino Retreat. If your soul is whispering that it's time for something more — more adventure, more meaning, more boldness — this is your portal.

Next she regales the Portuguese fairy tale, The Enchanted Maiden, and it's not exactly the story our listener suggested and we're sorry. Abbie cold-reads an absolutely delightful German tale from Schleswig-Holstein that follows an old woman minding her own business before heading to bed called One, Two, Three.

After a frustrating stretch of delays, postponements, and bad luck with opponents, she previews her rescheduled matchup against Amanda Lemos — now set for March 14 at the Meta APEX — and explains why staying active moving forward is a top priority as she eyes a fifth-straight win.Then, fresh off his win over Arnold Allen, featherweight contender Jean Silva joins the show alongside his manager to assist with Portuguese-to-English translation duties. Matt sets the tone for the interview in a way that requires no Duolingo, immediately matching Silva's infectious energy. From there, the conversation turns to a breakdown of Silva's win over Allen, what the fight revealed about his evolution as a fighter, and where he sees himself fitting into the featherweight picture as Jim throws out potential next opponents.Jim and Matt wrap up the episode with their biggest takeaways from UFC 324, highlighting standout performances and early storylines from the first-ever UFC event of the Paramount era.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

In this episode of the Feel Free Again Podcast, I sit down with healing and empowerment coach Jorge Ruiz to talk about something men desperately need, but rarely reach for: grief recovery. We dig into why men often avoid emotional healing, why “I'm fine” becomes a lifestyle, and how unprocessed loss doesn't just hurt your feelings, it quietly anchors your identity to your past and shapes how you react in the present and fear the future. Jorge shares powerful stories from working with foster youth, people coming out of prison, and men who've learned to survive by numbing instead of processing. We talk identity labels like “addict” or “prisoner,” and how the Grief Recovery Method can help you finally separate who you are from what happened to you. We also go deep on men's isolation, the suicide reality, and the warrior/protector paradox: real strength isn't pretending you feel nothing—it's learning how to feel without being ruled by it. If you've ever felt stuck, reactive, ashamed, disconnected, or like peace always sits just one achievement away… this conversation is for you. I also share how grief recovery impacts marriage and fatherhood, and Jorge breaks down his FOCUS framework (Faith Overcomes Challenges Unleashes Success) plus why none of this works well until the heart gets healed first. If you know a man who needs this, please share it. It might be the conversation that helps him finally start healing. ⏱️ Chapters: 00:00 — Why Feeling “Stuck” Happens to Strong People 05:54 — Meet Ezra Stanton: The Cost of Staying in Quicksand 11:48 — The Hidden Patterns That Keep Men Stalled 17:42 — How to Tell If You're Numb vs. Actually “Okay” 23:36 — The Moment You Realize It's Not Just Stress 29:30 — The Lie of Self-Sufficiency (And Why It Backfires) 35:24 — Naming the Real Problem Without Shame 41:18 — The Inner Story Driving Your Outer Life 47:12 — Why Willpower Fails (Even for Disciplined Men) 53:06 — Rebuilding Clarity When You Can't Trust Your Feelings 59:00 — The Emotional Weight You Didn't Know You Were Carrying 01:04:54 — What Healing Actually Looks Like in Real Life 01:10:48 — Breaking the Cycle: Triggers, Reactions, and Repair 01:16:42 — Identity: Who You Become After Loss and Change 01:22:36 — Relationships Under Pressure: How Men Pull Away 01:28:30 — The Turning Point: Doing the Work That Works 01:34:24 — Practical Tools to Get Unstuck This Week 01:40:18 — What Freedom Feels Like (And Why It's Quiet at First) 01:46:12 — The Long Game: Staying Free, Not Just Getting Free 01:52:08 — Final Charge: The Next Step for Men Ready to Move Connect With Jorge: Email: jorgeruiz@focusimaginelife.com Website: https://www.griefrecoverymethod.com/grms/jorge-ruiz Cole James, President of the Grief Recovery Institute, shares about the Power of Grief Recovery! Cole is dedicating his life to help people with grief. Now, grief is much more than just losing someone. Did you know that? You've probably heard of the Five Stages of Grief, right? Well, this goes much deeper than you think. Let me explain. Everyone has some type of grief in their lives, some haven't yet, but it's part of life. We can't escape it, BUT we can work through it. And you don't have to do it alone. Let's talk about it. We have trained Grief Recovery Method Specialists, who help heartbroken people, in Europe, Asia, Africa, Australia, the Middle East, Central America, South America, and North America. The Grief Recovery Method Certification Program is taught and available in multiple languages including: English, Spanish, Swedish, Hungarian, Ukrainian, and Russian.

“Answering Your Inner Calling” In this transformative bilingual movie gathering 'Answering Your Inner Calling', David Hoffmeister opens with a radical invitation: let the movie do the spiritual "legwork" for you. David explores the profound teaching that "The Kingdom of Heaven is at hand"—not as a metaphor, but as a literal truth that shatters the illusion of linear time. Drawing from A Course in Miracles Lesson 158, David breaks down the concept that "time is a trick, a sleight of hand," and explains why we cannot bring the truth into our illusions. Instead, we must bring our illusions—our goals, our history, and our beliefs—to the light of truth. Join us for this deep dive into non-duality, where we learn to look past the "fireworks" of the ego and embrace the eternal present. For more information about bilingual movie gatherings, David Hoffmeister, and Living Miracles events, visit https://www.the-christ.net/events Free Bilingual Movie Gatherings This January, we'll meet each Saturday for an online movie gathering with David Hoffmeister! Through David's deeply insightful commentaries and teachings, the mind is opened to a living experience of A Course in Miracles, offering a profound opportunity for healing and heartfelt connection.

On this edition of The Dugout, Jacob is joined by Alex Moneypenny from The Different Knock to dissect the emotional fallout of the 0-0 draw against Nottingham Forest. Despite sitting seven points clear at the top, the vibes are complicated—so how do we hold two opposing truths at once? In this episode we discuss: The Premier League “Quality” Debate: Alex delivers a hot take on why the narrative that the league is “terrible” this year is wrong, arguing that the league has never been more compact or difficult. The Joy Deficit: Jacob explores the struggle of the modern fan experience—why does being top of the league feel like a grind, and is the “journey” actually enjoyable this season? The Gyökeres Inquest: An emotionally honest conversation about Viktor Gyökeres. Is it a “translation” issue from the Portuguese league, and should he be used as a “hero” substitute rather than a starter against low blocks? Tactical Philosophy: A deep dive into whether Mikel Arteta prioritizes “relationships over profiling” in his team selection, and how that might be stalling the attack. The San Siro Test: Looking ahead to Inter Milan—why players won't accept rotation for a Champions League anthem night, and the desperate need for Kai Havertz to return.

Welcome to Legal Late Night! In this episode, host Jared Correia breaks down the shifting landscape of law firm marketing for 2026 and dives deep into the world of legal education with clinical supervisor Leticia Leal.   First, Jared shares his monologue on the rise of AI Search Optimization (AEO). He explains why content marketing and short-form video are more critical than ever as AI begins to infiltrate traditional search engines. He also challenges lawyers to look beyond Google Ads and explore alternative platforms like Reddit, Twitch, and LinkedIn to capture a younger client base.  Then, we are joined by Leticia Leal from the University of Houston Law Center. Leticia shares her journey of becoming a lawyer in both Brazil and Texas, explaining the fundamental differences between civil law and common law systems. We discuss the "roach-free" University of Houston immigration clinic, how AI is (and isn't) being used by law students, and the "internet famous" status she achieved through her creative LinkedIn content.  Finally, don't miss the Counter Program: "Duo Lingo." Leticia helps Jared (who is Portuguese but can't speak the language) translate famous pop culture phrases into Brazilian Portuguese—from Die Hard one-liners to Seinfeld references.  Learn more about Leticia Leal here. Check out this week's Spotify playlist. Oh, man! I bet you didn't know how much you were missing Jared's unique take on culture, legal practice, and whatever else pops into his head.
