September 19 is National POW/MIA Recognition Day in the United States. In this two-part series, we'll explore what it means to be part of that ongoing story — the families who wait, the system created to find answers, and the private researchers who work to complement the government's efforts.

What does it take to build lasting resilience in the face of unimaginable adversity? In this inspiring episode, host Nicole Jansen sits down with Lee Ellis—leadership coach, award-winning author, Air Force veteran, and former POW in North Vietnam for over five years. Drawing on his extraordinary experiences of captivity, Lee shares practical wisdom on resilience, leadership, honor, and the true power of mission-driven living. Lee opens up about overcoming adversity as a prisoner of war, the critical role of commitment, faith, and community, and why self-acceptance and vulnerability are essential for real leadership. Together, Nicole and Lee explore what sets resilient people apart, how to bounce back after failure, and why having a strong sense of purpose can actually extend your life. Plus, Lee shares moving stories from his latest book Captured by Love and the unsung heroism of the POWs' wives. If you're seeking actionable inspiration on navigating hardship and leading with honor—at work or in life—this episode will equip you with the mindsets and tools you need most. What We Discuss in This Episode What helped prepare Lee for the POW experience? What was it like to be shot down and survive as a POW for over five years? How do purpose and mission drive resilience—even beyond extreme adversity? Why are POWs statistically more likely to outlive their civilian peers? What role did faith and community play in surviving captivity? How did the POWs bounce back mentally after giving in to suffering or failure? Why is embracing vulnerability—and owning your strengths and struggles—key for modern leaders? How can we apply these lessons to today's disconnected, anxious world? What are Lee's seven core behaviors for leading and living with honor? How did the wives and families fighting back home change the POWs' fate?

They dive into Monero's ongoing “qubic attack,” where mining pool Qubic controls ~35% of the network's hash rate and causes chain reorganizations. Dr. K, whose background spans ConsenSys, Grid Plus (creator of the Lattice One wallet), and a National Science Foundation grant for PoW research, proposes a fix: work shares. By sampling multiple proofs per block instead of one, work shares make the network resistant to attacks from miners with less than 51% hash power. Dr. K is already drafting a pull request to add this to Monero's code.The discussion also explores why Dr. K views proof-of-work as superior to proof-of-stake—emphasizing immutability, permissionlessness, and competitive fairness—and his own project, Quiet Network (QUI), a scalable PoW blockchain with an energy-based token (QI) designed for stable purchasing power.

On the outskirts of North London, near Chipping Barnet and Enfield, stands a marvellous country house, Trent Park that belonged to the Sassoon family. In 1939 it was requisitioned by the British government whereupon it became a luxurious POW camp for German prisoners. Why treat them so kindly? Well senior Wehrmacht and Nazi officers were lulled into a false sense of security, they let their guard down and discussed war plans, and their murderous outlook openly, all of which were recorded and translated by listeners in the cellars of the house. Many of these listeners were Jewish refugees. Today's guest is Jane Thynne, whose new book Appointment in Paris features Trent Park so we discuss that and plenty more including France during the war.

Dear Ones,You just never know where a sacred path is going to lead you. Right now, I'm on the balcony of a hotel on the Sonoma Plaza. It's curious finding myself here because I live here in Sonoma. But it just so happens that for various reasons, last night, every bed at the inn, including at my house, was full because we just had an event, Exotic Creatures. As I sat in my little car trying to decide where to go next, I wanted to go for a swim. I wasn't sure where to stay. And I looked up the most affordable hotel in town, which happened to be right on the plaza. So as I made my way here and got in my pajamas after a beautiful swim, I wondered... Was there a reason that I could think of why I would be right here?The reason why I'm right here... is to connect with my roots. Because this Sonoma Plaza is where I took my first steps. It's where I have memories of my mothers and my lovers. It's a place as close to home as I've ever known. Next to these trees. These flowers. This rose garden. This sundial. These amazing ducks. So I wanted to start my day right here. With the sounds of the morning birds. The light of the sun. The sounds of the traffic going by. And this poem/prose that I wrote from bed this morning. Ready to listen? Tune in. Because here we go. It's called the Constellation of She-Bear.Constellation of She-BearThe morning birds have let you know that the light is returning now. Right in the middle of where you are, there is beauty right next to the trouble. Can you pause and look for it?Just the presence of the sun is the reminder that there are cycles within cycles and it won't always feel like it does right now. Exactly, exactly in the spot that seems almost impossible to navigate, there is an opening to go through. Look for it.You might need to be brave because this threshold is going to look different than the ones you've known before. The trees that are blooming nearest to where you are standing have turned their leafy green ears towards your troubles. Go ahead, little one. Tell them about the thunder in your head. They already know.This makes me think of a song a song my mother used to sing to me as a little girl. Trouble in mind, I'm blue but I won't be blue always sun's gonna shine in my back door somedayI know I know it seems as if the universe is conspiring against you sometimes.You wonder if there's any more that can go wrong. Well, let me ask you, would you be willing to ask a different question? Even though you can't see them, there are tigers right now drinking water in a powerful river of fresh, sweet water. Just knowing that offers joy. comfort. Just think of it. Can you see the tigers drinking fresh sweet water in the thunder of your mind? Even though you can't hear it right now, there are medicine people playing a song for you on their drum. It's a heartbeat just for you. Really, it's happening right now. Somewhere around the world,a medicine person with a drum is playing a song for humanity and you are included in that. And even better, it's a song in your mother tongue. The language you speak in your world.Can you hear it? Can you hear it? Above the birds and the traffic and the air conditioner and the sounds of coffee brewing and the sweepers are sweeping and the housekeepers are keeping and the artists, well, we're reciting poetry on our phone, of course. Can you hear it?I wish I could rub this fragrant oil that smells like roses and frankincense into your hardening scars to soften them for you. You shouldn't have to do that all on your own.I just noticed how the skin puckers at the site of the wound. The poets tell us that's where the light gets in, you know, through the cracks. Light comes in and out of the wound. (You know, Rumi and Cohen always speaking about these light-filled wound things.) Listen closely now. Listen.The bear in your heart is carrying you. The bear in your heart is carrying you. The bear in your heart is carrying you safely to the next destination on your sacred path. I know you wish it was different. I wish it was different too. And not because we're fragile, although we have our moments.Maybe it's because we're tired. But mostly because we know it doesn't have to be like this. And it makes us sad that it doesn't have to be like this. It doesn't have to be like this, but it is. And so here we are. Do you remember the day when you took shelter from that perfect storm?You just stopped running and reacting and started noticing the blooming orchids? It all just seemed so unlikely to find all that beauty right next to all that destruction. But there it was. Here it is. As I looked up yesterday... at the woman swimming in front of me.There was indeed an orchid on her shoulder in the colors I had just painted. These are reminders that I am on a sacred path. And today I'm here to tell you, maybe to affirm for you or remind you, yes, These are fierce times. Fierce times. We are called into a future self that's more mature than we've ever been so far. And part of us, well maybe a lot of us, just want to go back to sleep. To pull the covers up over our head. To put the fuzzy socks on and go back to sleep. Yet every day that we overcome the fear which holds us back. Every day we release more withholding. Every day that we're kinder to ourselves, we are learning to see in the dark. But today, today I want to honor all the places that you are saying no. All the places you're saying no. I love your big, bold, quivering f**k no.I love your walking away. I love your walking toward your life right now. I want to cherish the few yeses that feel just right in your belly. You know the ones I'm talking about. What can you say yes to today that turns ancient starlight in your bones into actual life force you can use? You know that grace-filled stuff called Life Force?I've heard that even with current circumstances, there is actually still enough Life Force to go aroundRumor has it, You get to have as much as you want. You do need to ask for it, however. Not because it's moderated. Like no one can keep you from it. But because sometimes you forget it's there. Sometimes you forget that life force is there and you have to ask for it. You can hear me. Can't you? Pacing the floor in my fuzzy socks. This Life Force is here. It's between us right now. Can you feel it? I can.I'm smiling as I think about you. As I see your face. Your smile. Your eyes. I see you. The intention of noticing myself. You, me, eyes, life force, and the bear in your heart. It activates the sparks of hidden power within us. Pow, pow, pow, there goes the sparks. Sparking. Life is lifing. Stars are starring. Hearts are sending hearts. Sometimes you feel like you're not from around here. You search the stars, you look to the earth, and you just feel like maybe you don't exactly belong here.And you, darling heart, have made an art of not belonging. You've gotten really good at it.You can still be in crowds and in groups and not belong and not panic, and you're doing all right. You've also learned to practice feeling safe without anybody needing to validate your existence. You did a really good job! You are really amazing!You know that, right? Yet, precious one, I am here today to remind you that you do belong in this constellation of being. You have been walking barefoot through the galaxies alone for long enough. Right alongside the hot mess that you are in, the great mysteries have woven a milky way into the garment of your body, your sacred skin suit.For you, I give thanks. Our cosmic GPS coordinates led us exactly to this exact moment, the one we're in right now. The bear in my heart calls to the bear in your heart. Can you hear the call? The only thing you need to do to step onto your sacred path is to step onto your sacred path.I know it feels kind of like a riddle to recognize it, that you're already on it. I know a woman on her path when I see it. Let me be the one to tell you, I can see you are on your path. Yes, you've already crossed the threshold and you're in the NOW.I welcome you here, where I live in the now. It's good here. There's not that many people hanging out in the now, honestly. For us introverts who look like outroverts, it's kind of a cool place to be Now. It's so popular to talk about, but so few actually find their way to Now.So I'm glad you made it across that threshold.So, you know, this circle has been called and your name was on the list again. To come and speak to us about the gifts that you are carrying. Your unique medicine. Let me just tell you nobody here actually cares if you have your stuff in a tidy pile. We really don't.We like the steam that comes out of your compost. We all know that soon enough there will be wildflowers growing from everything you've been willing to let go of. So right beside the suffering there's this beauty to behold. That's why I'm here talking to you today to remind you to look for the beauty.You won't have to look very far. It's right where you look right Now. I'm inviting you to find a question that feels sweet on your tongue. The morning birds have let you know that the light is returning now. Right in the middle of where you are…There is beauty right next to the trouble. #medicinepainting #intentionalcreativity #ExoticCreatures #musea This painting was created in a weekend event called Exotic Creatures, using Medicine Painting. An ancient yet futuristic Intentional Creativity process that allows us to reveal so much of our hidden worlds and interpret it as medicine. Brave action steps, emerge, post painting. We don't want to live the way where we're living before. We now have the courage to try something else. We can't go back to where we were.One of the curious things is that we begin to watch for things that arise in the painting to arise inside of our lives. Within 45 minutes of completing this painting, I was at the pool and there was a woman swimming who had an orchid tattoo on her back in exactly the same colors as my painting. Later that night my phone showed me a photo from 2021 on the exact samed date of orchids. Then a few of us were out to dinner together and one of the women had a butterfly on her painting, which now manifested in another tattoo. Another woman had included a sacred herb in her painting, and then suddenly found out about a ceremony that included that sacred herb, and one of her other paintings. And the list goes on and on! How often we collapse the symbolic and mystical into our world in the day-to-day reality. Especially when we're looking for it!This painting and poem is dedicated to my students from Exotic Creatures, and also Color of Woman. I continue to be in awe at the sacred work of Medicine Painting. Painting with an intent to heal through the Alchemical Feminine and realize that we are already on our sacred path. Less withholding, more acknowledgment. Less loneliness, more inclusion in the tribe of healers and creatives who are willing to open their eyes. So good. At the end of the class, I decided I wanted to teach more specifically about the ingredients called Medicine Painting that I have been working on in our lineage for over 30 years. Stay tuned to learn more about how you can work with painting for healing yourself and also with others. Having nothing to do with being a great painter. Self-expression offers access to healing because it activates life force. It's the art and science of self expression that lights up my sacred path. The constellation of the she-bear reminds me of my calling. I am on my sacred path and not one single thing can take me off of it!Love in the Now,Shiloh Sophia Exotic Creatures team, Ruby, Alyse, Anasuya, Ali and below is the classroom too Get full access to Tea with the Muse at teawiththemuse.substack.com/subscribe

Yirmibir Bitcoin Podcast'inin "Bitcoin ve İslam" serisi içindeki 4 bölümlük "Sadece Bitcoin" serisinin 2. bölümüyle karşınızdayız! Bu bölümde, kripto alanının genellikle gözden kaçırılan teknik sorunlarına derinlemesine dalıyoruz.Bitcoin'in binlerce düğümle sürdürülen hafif ve kolay yönetilebilir zaman zincirinin onu nasıl gerçekten merkeziyetsiz ve güvenli kıldığını inceliyoruz. Bitcoin'in yalnızca parasal bir odakla minimal saldırı vektörlerine sahip olması, onu diğer kripto paralarla karşılaştırıldığında eşsiz bir sağlamlık sunuyor.Çoğu altcoinin ise süslü özelliklerle blok zincirlerini nasıl şişirdiğini ve sıradan kullanıcıların tam düğüm çalıştırmasını nasıl imkansız hale getirdiğini keşfedin. Bu durum, ağların merkeziyetçi olmasına, güvenliğinin azalmasına ve Infura'nın 2020 Ethereum kesintisi örneğinde görüldüğü gibi kesintilere ve saldırılara karşı daha savunmasız hale gelmesine yol açıyor. Ayrıca, Ethereum DAO hack örneğiyle altcoinlerin değişmezlikten nasıl ödün verdiğini gösteriyoruz.Yaygın bir yanılgıyı da ele alıyoruz: **"Blok zinciri teknolojisi"**nin kendisinin mucizevi olmadığını ve çoğu iş uygulaması için verimsiz olduğunu vurguluyoruz. Bitcoin'in blok zincirini kullanışlı kılanın, iş kanıtı (Proof-of-Work) ve dağıtık ağ konsensüsü ile benzersiz entegrasyonu olduğunu açıklıyoruz.Bölümde ayrıca iş kanıtı (PoW) ve hisse kanıtı (Proof-of-Stake - PoS) arasındaki temel teşvik farklarına odaklanıyoruz. PoS'un negatif (ceza tabanlı) teşviklerinin ve "zayıf öznelliğinin" onu nasıl uzun menzilli saldırılara ve tarihin yeniden yazılmasına karşı savunmasız hale getirdiğini detaylandırıyoruz. Bitcoin'in içsel güvenlik modelinin aksine, PoS güvenliğinin dışsal faktörlere ve spekülasyona bağımlı olduğunu gösteriyoruz.Son olarak, uzlaşma güvencesi ("settlement assurance") kavramını ve bunun "defter maliyeti" ("ledger costliness") ile ilişkisini açıklıyoruz. Litecoin gibi PoW altcoinlerin daha hızlı teyit süreleri sunsa da, Bitcoin'in her blok başına biriktirdiği çok daha büyük enerji harcaması ve madenci ödülleri sayesinde çok daha üstün uzlaşma güvencesi sunduğunu öğreniyoruz.Bu bölüm, alternatif kripto paraların hız veya ek özellikler uğruna merkeziyetsizlik ve güvenlikten nasıl taviz verdiğini ortaya koyarken, Bitcoin'in bu alanlardaki tavizsiz üstünlüğünü ve gerçek dijital kıtlığını neden koruduğunu net bir şekilde gözler önüne seriyor. İyi dinlemeler!Kaynak

Benjamin Netanjahu zapowiada ofensywę na miasto Gaza, gdzie ONZ właśnie ogłosiło klęskę głodu. Równocześnie mówi o negocjacjach w sprawie uwolnienia zakładników przetrzymywanych przez Hamas, który kilka dni temu zgodził się na 60-dniowe zawieszenie broni. Przerwy w wojnie masowo domagają się też sami Izraelczycy, których nawet 400 tysięcy demonstrowało przeciw polityce rządu. Tymczasem ujawnione właśnie wewnętrzne dokumenty izraelskiej armii wskazują na to, że aż 83 proc. ofiar wojny w Strefie Gazy stanowią palestyńscy cywile. A minister finansów zapowiada budowę nowego osiedla na Zachodnim Brzegu Jordanu, którego lokalizacja może uniemożliwić ewentualne powstanie państwa palestyńskiego. Czy do ofensywy na Gazę rzeczywiście dojdzie? Jakie mogą być losy ewentualnych rozmów o zawieszeniu broni? I dlaczego, mimo masowych protestów, polityka Netanjahu pozostaje bez zmian?Już co najmniej milion trzysta pięćdziesiąt tysięcy Afgańczyków deportowano, zmuszono lub nakłoniono do opuszczenia Iranu. Co tam robili? Dlaczego władze w Teheranie chcą się ich pozbyć właśnie teraz? I czy wracający migranci mogą być zagrożeniem dla talibów?Donald Trump zapowiada, że nie będzie już pośredniczył w rozmowach o spotkaniu Putin-Zełenski.

Karl Kreder, better known as Dr. K, is best known in the space for researching the use of merged-mined subnets to scale Proof of Work in 2018 – a concept which led to the launch of the Quai Network, which introduced the Proof of Entropy Minima (PoEM) consensus for high transaction throughput within a decentralized environment. Today, we talk about his views on Bitcoin, why Proof of Work is still relevant in a world that's converging towards the more convenient Proof of Stake, and how the Quai Network works.

With Cubic controlling an estimated 30–35% of hash power, the attacks combine technical pressure with “weaponized marketing” to boost their own coin. The community is responding by mobilizing CPU miners—especially on decentralized P2Pool—renting hash power during attack windows, and discussing medium-term fixes like fee adjustments, improved mining incentives, and greater decentralization. Broader regulatory headwinds, including high-profile legal cases against privacy tools, add to the urgency. Core consensus is to protect Monero's tail emission, reject proof-of-stake, and focus on practical, PoW-compatible defenses while reassuring users their funds remain safe. TIMESTAMPS: Coming soon!

What happens when a teenage camping trip on Prince of Wales Island turns into a face-to-face encounter with something that isn't supposed to exist? In this wild and unforgettable episode, we sit down with Nick Blankenship — author of Mythical Owl — who shares his firsthand account of seeing a female Sasquatch rise from the riverbank in full daylight, smashing fish with a rock, just 75 feet away.But that's only the beginning.From tree knocks and howls near Sandy Beach to glowing orbs above the mountains, and a white owl that landed silently on the back of his car — Nick's life has been shaped by decades of close encounters. We dig into Native perspectives, the mystery of missing time, and a chilling pattern: these beings tend to show up not in fear… but in joy.You'll hear tales from Thorne River, Gravelly Creek, and the dark forests near Kasaan — where legends of abductions and school shutdowns only add to the mystery.If you've ever felt the forest watching you… this is the episode for you.Resources:Nick's book - Mythical Owl - https://amzn.to/4l8MGG5 ( Amazon affiliate link)Raincoast Sasquatch by Dr. J.

This book explores the extraordinary story of Jewish POWs in German captivity during the Second World War - extraordinary because of the contrast between Germany's genocidal policy towards Jews on one hand, and its relatively non-discriminatory treatment of Jewish POWs from western countries on the other. The radicalisation of Germany's anti-Semitic policies entered its last phase in June 1941 with the invasion of the Soviet Union; during the following four years, nearly six million Jews were murdered. In parallel, Germany's POW policies had gone through a radicalisation process of their own, resulting in the murder of millions of Soviet POWs, of Allied commando soldiers, and of POW escapees, with Adolf Hitler eventually transferring in July 1944 the responsibility for POWs from the Wehrmacht to Heinrich Himmler, in his role as head of the Replacement Army. And yet, despite all this, Jewish POWs from western countries were usually not discriminated against and were treated, in most cases, according to the 1929 Geneva Convention. Jewish Soldiers in Nazi Captivity combines memoirs, letters, and oral histories with Red Cross camp visit reports and other archival material to challenge the accepted view of the Holocaust as an indiscriminate murder of all Jews in Europe and will help to reshape our understanding of the Holocaust and of Nazi Germany.

In this episode, Ben explores the NHS's 10 year plan through the lens of general practice funding. Joined by finance expert Andy Pow, they unpack the major shifts proposed in the plan, including resource movement from acute care to community services and the ambitious productivity expectations placed on general practice. Andy shares his insights on the feasibility of these changes and the implications of emerging GP contracts, such as single and multi-neighborhood provider models, which could fundamentally reshape funding and delivery structures. The discussion also touches on governance challenges, potential cultural friction, and the risk of small practices being sidelined by larger entities. This episode offers a deep dive into how general practice must evolve to remain central in a shifting healthcare landscape. Introduction (0:08) The 10 year plan (00:50) No new cash.. (01:52)  Do you think that is an opportunity for general practice? (02:30) A move away from funding for general practice being primarily via the core contract? (03:51)  PCN DES (05:17) Where is the money to go into the core general practice contract? (06:12) The two new contracts.. (07:53)  Can PCNs take on the contracts?? (09:23)   ICBs are being encouraged to get a range of potential providers for these contracts.. (11:18) What are you signing up for?. (12:40) Full circle.. (14:25) How important is it that General Practice holds these contracts? (15:50) How do we be proactive and not act like victims to all of this? (17:24) A risk or an opportunity for General Practice? (19:18) What's your advice? (21:08) Getting in touch.. (22:34)  Visit the Pow and Thomas website here. To find Andy Pow on socials, visit his X profile here, Bluesky here & Linkedin here.

August 7, 1943. Off the coast of Venezuela, a Nazi U-boat is under siege. For nine days, it's hunted by Allied aircraft across the Caribbean, until its engines fail and its commander gives the order: abandon ship. Forty-three German sailors plunge into shark-infested waters, and are pulled out by their enemy - the United States. The Germans think the worst is behind them. Instead, they're headed for a POW camp in the American heartland, where life will actually be pretty comfortable. They play soccer, harvest corn, eat well… until things turn violent.  How did Nazi prisoners of war end up murdering each other on U.S. soil? And what does American justice look like when applied to the enemy? Special thanks to William Geroux, author of The Fifteen: Murder, Retribution, and the Forgotten Story of Nazi POWs in America.

Send us a textFrom passing a phone around at the Naples airport to hosting 250 episodes with industry leaders, my podcasting journey represents more than content creation—it's been a masterclass in personal growth and relationship building.What began as a curious conversation with a POW veteran has evolved into a platform that connects me with remarkable minds, builds community, and provides value to listeners worldwide. Looking back at those early episodes—with terrible backgrounds and questionable audio—reminds me how far consistency can take you when you embrace imperfection.Through this five-year journey, I've distilled five transformative lessons that apply far beyond podcasting. First, discipline must override motivation; showing up consistently when no one's watching builds the foundation for everything. Second, progress always trumps perfection; perfectionism is merely fear disguised as standards. Third, accountability creates the focus and framework necessary for results—whether through team members, public commitments, or personal systems. Fourth, proximity to greatness fundamentally reshapes your understanding of what's possible; each conversation expands your vision. Finally, repetition creates results—there are no shortcuts to mastery, only consistent practice.The podcast wasn't merely about becoming a podcaster but about building something meaningful through time, connecting with exceptional people, and creating value that outlasts the recordings. These lessons weren't learned in classrooms but forged through consistent action, uncomfortable growth, and unwavering commitment.Whether you're starting your journey, navigating the middle challenges, or approaching your own milestone, remember that the process itself contains the transformation. Stay patient, disciplined, and humble—because the journey matters, the reps matter, and most importantly, you matter.

IndieSeen returns with a BANG! BOOM! POW! of an episode as we look at the new documentary, The Last Days of Joseph Koch Comics Warehouse!The movie follows the closing weeks of a massive Brooklyn pop culture warehouse/store run by Joseph Koch since 1988. Now, facing retirement, Koch must liquidate everything and plan for a future in which he plans to catch up on the myriad four-color adventures he's spent decades selling but not reading.Sujewa put the film together in the midst of his 53 Spaceships project, and the results frustrated his co-host to no end. In this candid conversation, they dig into the how's, why's, and WTF's of a movie that Ian can't quite recommend to fellow comics enthusiasts.The guys also welcome documentary participant Amanda Haynes for the first few minutes, as she extolls the virtues of biographical comics and explains her very personal connection to Neil Gaiman's Sandman comics.Subscribe, like, and comment on Kicking the Seat here on YouTube, and check us out at:kickseat.comXBlueSkyInstagramFacebookShow LinksWatch The Last Days of Joseph Koch Comics Warehouse for free on YouTube!There's still a bit of time to get some great deals from the man himself!

General Douglas MacArthur and General Jonathan Wainwright were very different men. Despite their differences, they shared notable similarities: both came from military families, graduated from West Point, and were decorated World War I veterans. They were also deeply devoted to the Army and driven by a strong sense of duty. Their relationship, largely shaped by the desperate defense and fall of the Philippines during World War II, was complex yet remarkably resilient. To delve deeper into their story, the MacArthur Memorial Podcast hosted Jonathan Horn, author of The Fate of the Generals: MacArthur, Wainwright, and the Epic Battle for the Philippines. Have a comment about this episode?

In this episode of the WW2 Podcast, I am joined by Bernd Häber to discuss the remarkable story of his grandfather, Fritz Häber — a German soldier who became a prisoner of war in American custody at the end of World War II. During his 16 months in a U.S. POW camp, Fritz kept a diary that not only captured the daily realities of captivity but also reflected on his wartime experiences and personal history. Now published as Fritz Häber: The Complete Diary – 16 Months in an American POW Camp, the account provides a rare and honest perspective from the losing side of the conflict. Bernd shares insights into his grandfather's life, the motivations behind the diary, and the legacy it represents — a deeply human story of reflection, identity, and the long shadow of war.

In this episode we discuss the discovery of all the Tubi stars in our midst, the antipasto scandal rocking the nation, getting rocked and rammed at Weird Al, a POW featuring Fanta Pineapple, Larry and Maurice as the OG iconic duo, the little phrase that captured the imaginaysh of every kid, teaching kids to hate landlords, a children's story about a sexual criminal, forcing a kid to take dog doodoo to school, a maple syrup horror story and SO MUCH MORE!!!

Ep. 193: It's been a season of change, and in this episode, Fi and I are getting into what it really looks like to walk away from what's comfortable in order to make space for something better. We talk about that weird in-between stage—when you've decided to leave, but don't know what's next—and how we've both been sitting with that uncertainty in our own ways. Fi opens up about her breakup, the emotions that caught her off guard, and how she's learning to listen to herself more deeply.

Ep. 191: This episode includes discussion of infertility and pregnancy loss—please listen with care. Today's episode is a special conversation with Dr. Molly Burrets, a clinical psychologist and professor at USC, about the deeply personal and often invisible experience of reproductive grief. Dr. Molly struggled with infertility herself, facing miscarriage, a TFMR, and ultimately pursuing IVF abroad. Having made it through to the other side, she shares what these experiences taught her—about grief, resilience, and what it means to be truly supported. Anyone navigating infertility, pregnancy loss, or supporting someone through it will get a lot from this conversation. ____________________ Leave Me a Message - click here!
