Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi on Wednesday ruled out the possibility of dissolving the House of Representatives for an early general election.

Jerusalem Demsas is one of Cardiff's favorite econ and housing journalists, a previous New Bazaar guest, and now the founder and editor of The Argument, a new magazine dedicated to making “a positive, combative case for liberalism through sharp, well-argued opinion pieces, original reporting, and multimedia content that confronts the illiberal drift in our politics.” Jerusalem and Cardiff discuss: Her meaning of liberalismHow (if?) persuasion works The politics of immigration and why it matters for the economy Drawing lines vs reaching across themIf Twitter really is “acid on community” How to societally deal with short-form video addiction…… and how Jerusalem broke her own TikTok problemWhy asking if something is cringe is itself the most cringe Finally, Jerusalem makes Cardiff look and feel super old when his reference to Reality Bites flies right by her. They close by reflecting on a hopeful trend. Related links: The ArgumentOn the Housing Crisis (Jerusalem's book of essays)Ezra Klein's podcast interview with Ta-Nehisi Coates Hosted on Acast.

Kevin Green says the Morgan Stanley (MS) and Goldman Sachs (GS) CEO commentary should be treated as a "blip on the radar" for now. When it comes markets getting a lack of data due to the record-setting government shutdown, he says investors are okay with it. That could change once the shutdown ends as Kevin expects volatility to ramp higher once we get a hold of all the delayed economic data. On the FOMC, he still expects a December interest rate cut due to the persistent weakness in the labor market. Kevin later offers his take on why Humana (HUM) and Cameco Corp. (CCJ) are "under the radar" earnings plays.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Options involve risks and are not suitable for all investors.

Forget the sanitized fairy tales — Danielle Dulsky, the author of The Night House: Folklore, Fairy Tales, Rites, and Magick for the Wise and Wild,  is here to remind us that the old stories bite back. We talk about the witch as an archetype of creative rebellion, the power of ritual, and how folklore can awaken the wild, wise self that's been hiding just beneath the surface. Danielle is a heathen visionary, painter, and word-witch. She's the author of Seasons of Moon and Flame, Woman Most Wild, and The Holy Wild; she teaches internationally and has facilitated circles, embodiment trainings, communal spell-work, and seasonal rituals since 2007. She is the founder of The Hag School and believes in the emerging power of wild collectives and sudden circles of curious dreamers, cunning witches, and rebellious artists in healing our ailing world. In this episode, Danielle discusses:The Hag SchoolHer background and transformation into a witchThe meaning of her book title, The Night House The mysterious origins of fairy talesArchetypes in fairy talesHow readers can work with her bookThe hidden intelligence contained with fairy tales, myths, etcThe universality of ancient storiesDreaming the futureThe hidden realmThe magic of storytellingAn example of how to work with a fairy taleChech out Danielle's website and the The Hag School________Register for the free 11/8/25 Entering the Age of Possibility webinar For more information about Wendy's new visionary fiction book, Raven's Daughter, or to purchase a copy, visit Three Worlds PressBECOME YOUR OWN SHAMAN Introductory Online Course Visit Wendy's website to learn more about the the Harmonic Egg®  Lucid Cafe episodes by topic  Listen to Lucid Cafe on YouTube  ★ Support this podcast ★

What does it take to stay human, together, when everything asks us to harden?  In this episode, Amisha sits in tender conversation with the Emergent Justice Collective led by Lisa, Lily, and Val, three transformative justice practitioners, grief workers, and embodiment activists who are visioning a different way of being with justice in the movement towards collective liberation.  As we witness deepening crises around us, the impulse of so many of us can be to turn toward formal systems of power and to demand accountability through legal institutions. But Lisa, Lily, and Val offer us something more. They speak of justice stemming from love and the knowing of our interdependence and shared responsibility. Our movements are extensions of ourselves, of our positionalities, our rage and grief, and the communities to which we belong. Liberation begins in the tender spaces between us, in orienting towards relationality even as systems of oppression demand otherwise.  We hope that this week's episode really speaks to something deep in your body, and a possibility of how we live fully with everything that is happening in our world.  Join us in The Rhythm: live meditation sessions twice a week with our community - no recordings to catch up on, just show up and breathe together.

In this episode of From Pain to Possibility, I dive into decoding migraines—not as random or mysterious attacks, but as patterns that can be understood, softened, and shifted. I share how awareness, calm, and curiosity can help you see the early signs of pain before it takes over. Through real stories from clients and graduates, you'll hear how moving from force to awareness changes everything. Migraines stop feeling unpredictable and start becoming information the body is trying to share. I also guide you through a gentle awareness practice to help you sense tension, soften around discomfort, and reconnect with your breath. You'll learn that when the nervous system feels safe, the body reorganizes from protection to support—and that's when lasting change begins.

In this hope-filled episode of the UnabridgedMD Podcast, Dr. Isabelle Amigues sits down with Cliff—a former patient—to trace his journey from sudden, debilitating pain and months of uncertainty to full remission and a return to the life he loves. After being dismissed and delayed elsewhere, Cliff found UnabridgedMD, received an accurate diagnosis of polymyalgia rheumatica (PMR), and followed a clear, compassionate plan: calm the “fire” of inflammation, treat decisively, and taper safely. Within a few months he was off steroids, symptom-free, and cleared to travel to Africa—proof that partnership, precise listening, and a treat-to-target mindset can change everything.

In this episode, Delta Air Lines CEO Ed Bastian breaks down what truly differentiates a great airline: people and culture. Ed shares why “take care of your people first” isn't a slogan (it's Delta's operating system!) and how that shows up in reliability, premium customer experience, and everyday leadership. We get a candid look at running a 100,000-person, 5,000-flights-a-day operation; the metrics he checks first (on-time arrivals and cash); and why accessibility and listening are his non-negotiables as a leader.We also dive into Delta's broader vision: a connected, premium travel ecosystem that spans free fast Wi-Fi and new entertainment partnerships to deeper integrations with Uber, Wheels Up and, soon, eVTOL links with Joby. Ed frames AI as “augmented intelligence” that empowers frontline teams, outlines how Delta thinks about fortress balance sheets and long-cycle bets, and makes the case that air travel isn't a commodity but an experience people will choose and pay for. Founders will appreciate his clear wishlist of problems to solve in ops efficiency, maintenance, and crew utilization, and his invitation to bring real solutions, not just ideas.

PREVIEW: South Korea, Plutonium, and Nuclear Proliferation Guest: Henry Sokolski Henry Sokolski addresses the Department of Energy's plutonium availability and the possibility of South Korea acquiring or producing plutonium to match North Korea's nuclear capabilities. Greenlighting South Korea to recycle plutonium and enrich uranium represents a major nonproliferation concern. South Korea already possesses some technology to pursue these capabilities independently, raising the stakes for policy decisions. The proliferation implications of allowing advanced nuclear fuel cycle technologies to spread beyond current holders pose significant regional and global security challenges.

If Prop 50 passes, Congressman David Valadao of the Central Valley would be one of five Republicans on the chopping block. And that worries farmers in his district.

Our thoughts are real, but not always true. This episode invites listeners to look beyond the stories the mind creates and find freedom from worry, stress, and self-doubt. Through mindfulness and gentle awareness, it offers a path to calm and clarity in uncertain moments. Listeners are encouraged to trust that every thought can be met with curiosity and compassion, opening the way to inner peace, resilience, and a deeper sense of hope for what is possible. Poem: Our Thoughts Are Real, But Not Always True Our thoughts rise like waves on an endless sea, shaping the shore of who we think we are. They rush in, fierce and convincing, pulling us into stories of what might break, what might never come, what might already be lost. They feel real because they are. They move through the body, tighten the chest, quicken the breath, stir the storm. But truth lives somewhere quieter. It waits beneath the noise, in the still water that holds every wave. It asks nothing but a pause, a single breath, a question whispered to the mind: Is this thought true? The unknown is not our enemy. It is the open sky that can let every cloud of thought drift by. Calm is not something we find, but something we remember. In the space between belief and truth, there is peace. There is possibility. And there we can be, the sky, not the storm.

"What is life?" - asks Chris Kempes, a professor at the Santa Fe Institute.Chris explains that scientists are moving beyond a purely Earth-based, biological view and are searching for a universal theory of life that could apply to anything, anywhere in the universe. He proposes that things we don't normally consider "alive"—like human culture, language, or even artificial intelligence; could be seen as life forms existing on different "substrates".To understand this, Chris presents a fascinating three-level framework:- Materials: The physical stuff life is made of. He argues this could be incredibly diverse across the universe, and we shouldn't expect alien life to share our biochemistry.- Constraints: The universal laws of physics (like gravity or diffusion) that all life must obey, regardless of what it's made of. This is where different life forms start to look more similar.- Principles: At the highest level are abstract principles like evolution and learning. Chris suggests these computational or "optimization" rules are what truly define a living system.A key idea is "convergence" – using the example of the eye. It's such a complex organ that you'd think it evolved only once. However, eyes evolved many separate times across different species. This is because the physics of light provides a clear "target", and evolution found similar solutions to the problem of seeing, even with different starting materials.**SPONSOR MESSAGES**—Prolific - Quality data.

In this episode of From Pain to Possibility, I continue my gait series by exploring the stance phase: the moment our bodies meet gravity and the ground. I share why gait isn't about fixing what's "broken," but about recognizing how our systems creatively adapt to support us. When we meet those adaptations with awareness instead of judgment, we shift from forcing change to allowing it. You'll learn how noticing the simple act of walking, how the foot lands, how the pelvis stabilizes, how breath flows, can reveal powerful insights about coordination, balance, and ease. I guide you through an experiential practice to sense your own stance and discover how receiving support from the ground transforms movement from effortful to effortless. You'll see how restoring clarity in gait restores trust in the body, reduces compensation, and opens the path to more graceful, grounded movement.

The framework employs natural law theory and Eastern Orthodox theology to distinguish between morally impermissible slavery and morally acceptable servitude arrangements, while contextualizing Old Testament ethics within the Ancient Near Eastern cultural baseline from which God drew his people toward eventual Christian perfection.All the links: Substack: https://nathanajacobs.substack.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thenathanjacobspodcastWebsite: https://www.nathanajacobs.com/X: https://x.com/NathanJacobsPodSpotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/0hSskUtCwDT40uFbqTk3QSApple Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-nathan-jacobs-podcastFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/nathanandrewjacobsAcademia: https://vanderbilt.academia.edu/NathanAJacobs00:00:00 Introduction 00:01:20 Recapping the Slavery Episode 00:08:20 Recapping the Polygamy Episode 00:10:00 Recapping the Genocide Episode 00:11:27 Why a 4th Episode? 00:15:00 Slaying of Innocence 00:19:45 Possibility #1 00:20:30 Possibility #2 00:22:15 Possibility #3 00:23:40 The Rich Man and Lazarus 00:27:30 The Most Troubling Psalm 00:36:17 Lingering Concerns with Genocide 00:42:35 Are the Innocent Damned? 00:46:35 Loose Ends with Slavery 00:53:29 The Law and Moral Progress 01:00:50 Sensitivity of Moral Faculties 01:06:15 The Ideal of the Logos

SUMMARY: - Guest, Author and speaker Debora Coty shares how to find joy amid pain, drawing from deep personal losses and decades of ministering to women. - Writing journey: Her Too Blessed to Be Stressed brand unexpectedly grew to 40+ books/products with 2M+ copies sold worldwide; new devotional Bless Your Heart focuses on daily encouragement. - “Papa God”: She uses the intimate, biblical sense of Abba (Papa/Daddy) to help women experience God's unconditional love beyond imperfect earthly-father images. - Faith in crisis: Six miscarriages triggered a two-year spiritual shutdown; daily praying through the Psalms—starting with “angry” psalms—slowly reopened her heart to God's presence. - Recent trials: Multiple family deaths, job loss, knee replacements, a spouse's cancer, and a 5-year legal battle to protect her grandchildren—culminating in unexpected, miraculous breakthrough. - Joy vs. happiness: Happiness depends on circumstances; joy is a chosen, steady confidence in God's unchanging character that can coexist with grief. - Tools for resilience: Gratitude (Philippians 4:6–7), worship/music, nature, Scripture, intentional fun and laughter, and noticing daily “grace notes” (small signs of God's care). - “BOGO blessings”: Inspired by 1 Peter 3:9—when you bless others, you “be one, get one,” receiving blessing as you give it. - Anchoring Scriptures: Philippians 4:6–7 (peace covenant), Psalm 46:1 (ever-present help), Psalm 147:3 (heals the brokenhearted). - Invitation: Join her BFF (Blessed Friends Forever) community for mutual prayer, encouragement, and practical faith; final charge—keep seeking God's presence with perseverance.   PODCAST INTRO: If you've ever wondered how joy can possibly coexist with grief, today's conversation is for you. I'm joined by beloved author and encourager Debora Coty—creator of the Too Blessed to Be Stressed series, with over two million copies in print worldwide. She and I had a chance to connect for the podcast while she was visiting family in the Smokey Mountains and Debora brought her signature warmth, humor, and hard-won wisdom to help us find God's presence in life's most painful seasons. We talk about the difference between happiness and true, resilient joy; how scripture—especially the Psalms and Philippians 4:6–7—anchors us when our faith feels shaken; and the “grace notes” God sprinkles through our days when we learn to look for them. Debora opens up about profound losses—miscarriages, family heartbreak, health challenges, and a long, exhausting court battle—and how waiting on God can still lead to breathtaking redemption. You'll hear practical tools to refresh a weary spirit: gratitude that changes the atmosphere, worship that invites God's presence, nature that whispers His care, and yes—laughter—as a catalyst for joy. Debora also shares about her new devotional, Bless Your Heart, and invites you into her BFF—Blessed Friends Forever—community for prayer, connection, and ongoing encouragement. Let's listen in as Debora shares her message of joy, hope and encouragement. As soon as she starts talking you know immediately that's she's an encourager at heart maybe it's because she exudes the joy of the Lord…and because of that joy, I think you'll be surprising to hear all that she's been through and yet she still keeps leaning on Jesus for His joy and strength.

When life takes an unexpected turn, when a relationship ends, plans fall apart, or disappointment appears out of nowhere, it can feel like everything is working against you. But what if life is still on your side, even in those moments of heartache and uncertainty? This podcast episode invites you to see challenges in a new way and find peace in the middle of change. When you stop believing that life is against you, you begin to open to the quiet rhythm of possibility, where healing and hope can start to grow. Even in pain there is movement. Even in loss there is life still unfolding with you. Take ten minutes to breathe, reflect, and remember that you are not separate from life. You are part of it, and within that connection, there is always a way forward. Poem: Life Is Still With You When the path breaks open beneath your feet, and everything you planned disappears into air, pause. The world is still breathing with you. The sunrise does not forget your name. The wind still carries new beginnings. Life is not against you. It moves through you, even now in every breath, in every quiet act of courage, in every small moment you choose to begin again.

Tomahawk Missiles Would Extend Ukraine's Range but Are Not a Wonder Weapon. John Hardie discusses the possibility of supplying Tomahawk missiles to Ukraine. Hardie argues that the Tomahawk would extend Ukraine's range beyond existing Western missiles and packs more power than Ukraine's domestically produced drones. It is also noted as being a more capable missile that is harder to shoot down than current Ukrainian long-range systems. Hardie supports enhancing Ukraine's long-range strike capabilities, but cautions that the Tomahawk is not a "wonder weapon" that will turn the tide of the war. Practical and stockpile considerations for the United States, as well as alternative missile options, are also relevant. 1957
