When Madame Bovary was written in the 1850s, it fell under the accusing eye of the French government for its perceived immorality. Flaubert recognized that the trial would only stoke interest, and that it would set the tone for his career.

Media Bias in America is shaping elections, influencing public opinion, and redefining political reality. This episode of The P.A.S. Report Podcast exposes how the press protects political narratives and what it means for the future of the country. Professor Nick Giordano sits down with political commentator and Newsbusters contributor Steve Malzberg to examine the growing influence of media bias in American politics. The conversation explores the transformation of the Democrat Party, the role of selective reporting and narrative building, and the impact of social media in shaping how Americans interpret political events. As trust in institutions declines and media narratives increasingly dominate political discourse, understanding how information is filtered, framed, and amplified has never been more important. This episode analyzes the forces shaping public opinion and why political awareness is essential for ordinary Americans. What You'll Learn How media bias influences elections and shapes political narratives in America The transformation of the Democrat Party from the JFK era to today How selective coverage and fake news by omission shape public perception The role social media plays in amplifying political narratives Why political awareness is essential to preserving an informed electorate

Your Parenting Mojo - Respectful, research-based parenting ideas to help kids thrive
If you've been watching the news and feeling despair because you can't do anything about it, this episode is for you.The Epstein files, revealing how powerful men think about, talk about, and treat women. ICE raids tearing families apart. Strikes on Iranian cities - and schools full of children!In this episode, I make a direct connection between these social issues and what happens inside our homes every day. The patterns playing out on a global scale - where the person with more power decides whose feelings count - show up in our families too, often in moments we don't even notice, and that seem like they're about discipline. The decisions we make in those moments are quietly teaching our kids lessons we may not intend to pass on. Questions this episode will answerWhat do ICE raids have to do with parenting? When children watch some families live in fear of being separated while others are basically safe by default, they learn that some people's safety matters more than others. That same lesson can show up at home when we use our power as parents to override our kids' feelings and needs. Why is it important to teach kids about consent? Research shows that girls start shifting from seeing their body as something that helps them do things to seeing it as something to be judged - often earlier than we realize. Teaching consent starts long before those conversations about sex. It starts when we stop forcing our children to accept hugs and give kisses they don't want from well-meaning relatives. How do you explain consent to children? Consent is about whose body, feelings, and needs matter most. When we override our child's no - even in small everyday moments - we teach them that the person with more power wins. This episode explores what it looks like to do things differently. How do the Iran strikes connect to how we raise our kids? When leaders frame bombing cities where children live as "protecting freedom", they're using the same logic many of us heard growing up: that hurting someone with less power is justified when the person with more power decides it's for a good reason. This episode traces that logic from foreign policy all the way back to the family dinner table. What does it mean that we're all part of the system - not just the people doing obvious harm? It's easy to point to the person at the center causing the most visible damage. But around that person are rings of people who actively enable them, then people who know and look away, and then the rest of us - making decisions every day in our families and communities that make it more or less likely that people with power can keep using it. This episode explains what that outermost ring looks like in ordinary family life, and what it means to resist it from there. What you'll learn in this episodeWhy the same power dynamics driving ICE raids, the Epstein files, and the Iran strikes also show up in everyday parenting momentsHow the language our leaders use about migrants, women, and foreign countries shapes what our kids quietly absorb about whose lives matterWhat research tells us about how girls experience the shift from body ownership to body judgment - and what parents can do to slow that shift downWhy the parents who explode when their kids say no are often people who were never allowed to say no themselvesHow using power to manage our kids' behavior in stressful moments teaches the same lesson as the biggest injustices in the news - just on a smaller scaleWhat it looks like to build a home where your child's feelings and needs count - even when you're overwhelmed Taming Your TriggersIf you recognized yourself anywhere in this episode - if you know that when the poop hits the fan you fall back on power because you don't know what else to do - that's exactly what we work on in my Taming Your Triggers workshop. In the workshop, we go deep on why you get triggered, what you actually need in those moments, and how to build a different response from the inside out - so you're not just white-knuckling it through the hard moments anymore.And we've made it more accessible.

With the 98th Academy Awards coming up, it's time, once again, for Baconsale to describe the various nominees since people haven't seen most of these films (including most of us). Joel, Kent, and Zack are also going to be making their predictions about who is going to win each category, but this year, there's a twist. After one person picks their winner, the others can't choose the same one. And the choosing order will be randomized each round. It's organized chaos as we discuss donkeys, get confused by the Norwegian language, and only laugh at Kent's jokes. And with a customized prize based on the Best Picture winner, the stakes have never been higher. Will One Battle After Another come off victorious? Will F1 be #1? Will Hamnet suffer another heartbreaking loss? Will Marty reign Supreme? Can Frankenstein pull itself together? Will Bugonia ascend? Will Sentimental Value tug at the heartstrings of the voters? Or is Hollywood just a bunch of Sinners? Press play to hear our thoughts in a higher register. Also, visit Baconsale.com to fill out our official 2026 Oscars ballot and enter to win a prize!
What if being “fully booked” is the reason you feel behind? We pull back the curtain on the operator mindset—busy, reactive, and addicted to checking boxes—and replace it with a CEO approach that channels your time into one focused, revenue-driving outcome. Instead of chasing trends and starting over every week, we build a simple 90-day lens that protects your priorities, clarifies your message, and makes progress measurable.Across this conversation, we reframe how experts and service providers structure their work. We define the real difference between effort and outcomes, then design a quarter where every core activity supports a single offer or revenue target. You'll hear how to translate that target into monthly milestones and weekly needle-movers: sales assets that convert, nurture sequences that answer objections, and content that points buyers toward one clear decision. We also dig into what to stop doing—reactive pivots, shiny-object projects, and over-editing low-impact tasks—so your best hours go to the moves that actually pay you back.Data becomes your feedback loop, not your stressor. We walk through the leading and lagging metrics that matter, from opt-ins and booked calls to conversion rates and total revenue. With a calm weekly review, you adjust tactics without scrapping the plan, then close the quarter with a short retrospective that turns lessons into leverage. The payoff is momentum without burnout: a cadence you can sustain, a message your audience understands, and offers that grow stronger with each quarter you run.Ready to trade busyness for strategy? Press play, set your one revenue goal for the next 90 days, and commit to finishing what you start. If this helps, subscribe, share it with a friend who needs focus, and leave a quick review to tell us your next 90-day target.Read the full article.Support the show

Did you know that a Yiddish newspaper once had a larger circulation than The New York Times? At the turn of the 20th century, the Yiddish press in America wasn't just a news industry — it was the beating heart of immigrant Jewish life. Newspapers didn't just report the news; they offered advice, shaped politics, and helped newcomers navigate a bewildering new society. In this week's episode, historian Ayelet Brinn joins us to discuss her award-winning book A Revolution in Type: Gender and the Making of the American Yiddish Press. Among the fascinating stories we explore: • Why men sometimes wrote under female pseudonyms just to get published • How "women's columns" became unexpected spaces for radical political ideas • The strange linguistic world of early Yiddish journalism — where the same word might be spelled differently in the same article • And how immigrant newspapers became guides to everyday life, with readers even showing up at editorial offices for personal advice. What emerges is a portrait of a vibrant media ecosystem where journalism, politics, gender, and immigrant identity collided in surprising ways. If you were a newly arrived immigrant a century ago, would you trust a newspaper to guide you through daily life?

The room lifted before the first chord. Athens came alive with a storyteller's spark, a stripped-down trio threading classics and new cuts, and two supercharged nights honoring R.E.M.'s Life's Rich Pageant that turned a tribute into living history. We walked in as fans and left feeling like part of a scene that refuses to fade.We start with Jason Narducy weaving road stories from Mostly The Van between raw, punchy songs, including a punk blast from his first band and a brush with the Grohl family tree. Then Kevin Kinney and Peter Buck lock in with Scott McCaughey, Elizabeth Cook steps up on guitar and harmonies, and a Todd Snider salute lands with real weight. Five musicians shoulder to shoulder on a tiny stage close the night in a hush you can feel. The next evening, Bobcat Goldthwait cracks wise with self-deprecating gems, Michael Shannon and Narducy run Pageant front to back at the 40 Watt, where Hyena bites, I Believe glows, and Underneath The Bunker turns seismic when Bill Berry sits in. The crowd knows every word. The band knows exactly why they're here.Peter Buck joins for South Central Rain and Sitting Still; Radio Free Europe detonates with McCaughey; Star 69 brings the Monster snarl. Shannon's sister adds cello to Nightswimming, Linda Hopper honors Lynn Blakey, and Vanessa Briscoe Hay snaps the line to Pylon. We trace roots to Wuxtry Records at 50, the longest-running record store in Georgia and the place where Michael Stipe met Peter Buck. Along the way we unpack cover-song surprises like Superman, revisit California Dreamin's Barry McGuire take, and relive earworms from Garbage's Only Happy When It Rains to the family rituals that music quietly builds.If you love R.E.M., Athens indie rock, record store lore, and the electricity of a room singing in unison, this ride will hit you in the chest.

Send a textCalamity loves the summit. We open the text to a hard truth: when life feels most secure, the fall often begins—not because money or achievement are evil, but because sufficiency tempts the heart to drift. That image of a straitjacket at the peak becomes our guide as we examine how comfort breeds complacency, how trust in wealth grows fragile wings, and why collapse can arrive precisely when applause is loudest.Together we probe a deeper question: what story does our success tell about our souls? We visit Joseph of Arimathea as a rare portrait of faithful stewardship—quiet, costly, Christ-centered—and contrast it with modern scandals where pride, pressure, and power devour the people they promise to protect. The aim isn't outrage for its own sake; it's clarity. If you build on idols, idols collect their due. If you build on mercy, mercy multiplies.Our conversation widens to identity and hope. The people of God are not defined by passports or parties but by grace. The holy nation Peter describes gathers every tribe that trusts Jesus, and no empire can claim or cancel it. From there we set expectations straight: political figures and cultural titans are not saviors. The gates of hell do not prevail against the church, and worldly alliances will eventually betray those who lean on them. So we test our loyalties, trade panic for prayer, and ask better questions about what we finance, who we serve, and how our daily choices preach the gospel.We end where real change begins: repentance and fruit. Love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control are not sentimental extras; they are the public proof that our treasure is in heaven.

You cannot improve what you refuse to accept. In today's episode, Kevin and Alan break down the uncomfortable starting point of real self-improvement. Everyone wants growth, confidence, and better results, but far fewer people are willing to face the honest truths that make those outcomes possible. This conversation explores why self-awareness and acceptance sit at the foundation of personal development, leadership, and long-term progress.When the ego protects comfort over truth, growth stalls. When reality becomes clear, better decisions follow. Press play and see what happens when denial quietly leaves the room._______________________Episode Reference:The Pyramid of The Self - https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/16-how-build-your-best-self-from-ground-up-alan-lazaros-ya3oe/Learn more about:Track the Work.

As Oscar night draws near, Below the Line turns to one of the most emotionally powerful — and hotly debated — categories of the year: the Academy Award for Best Original Score. In Episode 11 of our 2026 Oscar series, Skid is joined by returning panelists Chris Molanphy, Louis Weeks, and Jennie Armon to break down the five nominees recognized at the 98th Academy Awards: Bagonia, Frankenstein, Hamnet, One Battle After Another, and Sinners. With just over a week until the ceremony on March 15, the conversation balances prediction, perspective, and deep craft analysis — examining not only who might win, but what each score is attempting to accomplish. The discussion covers: Jerskin Fendrix's anarchic, genre-bending approach to Bagonia — and whether creative “broken communication” can be a feature rather than a flaw Alexandre Desplat's lush, violin-forward score for Frankenstein and what makes it feel both classical and quietly subversive Max Richter's restrained work on Hamnet, including the complicated legacy of “On the Nature of Daylight” and how previously composed music intersects with Oscar eligibility Johnny Greenwood's immersive, pulse-driven soundscape for One Battle After Another — and why some scores only reveal their full power in context with picture Ludwig Göransson's sweeping, thesis-driven score for Sinners, a front-runner that uses music not just to support story, but to make an argument of its own Along the way, the panel debates what the Academy tends to reward in this category: traditional orchestral craftsmanship, avant-garde experimentation, cultural resonance, or sheer emotional impact. They also spotlight overlooked scores from the year and reflect on how film music continues to evolve — especially as composers move fluidly between pop, concert, and cinematic worlds. As the 98th Academy Awards approach, this episode offers both a critical deep dive and a celebration of how music shapes the movies we love.
Nick Glimsdahl is a leading authority in Customer Experience (CX) and Digital Transformation, specializing in the critical connection between authentic service and business success.As the Director of Contact Center Solutions at VDS and host of the weekly podcast Press 1 For Nick, Nick combines deep expertise in sales, marketing, and contact-center strategy to help organizations create effortless and human-centered customer experiences. He advises companies on aligning business goals, customer expectations, and employee experience—often guiding organizations through complex initiatives such as digital transformation and AI adoption.Nick is also the author of The Heart of Service, where he champions service models that scale operationally without losing empathy, helping leaders and teams build customer experiences that drive long-term loyalty and growth.SHOW SUMMARYIn this episode of the Selling from the Heart Podcast, Larry Levine and Darrell Amy are joined by Nick Glimsdahl to explore the powerful idea that how you serve is how you sell. Nick explains that authentic selling begins with transparency, being honest about pricing, timelines, expectations, and outcomes so prospects can truly “see around the corner” and make informed decisions.The conversation highlights the often-overlooked period between contract signature and implementation, what Nick calls the “go-live gap.” When organizations fail to deliver a consistent experience during this phase, customers quickly lose trust, leading to buyer's remorse, lost renewals, and missed referrals.Nick also shares lessons from his book The Heart of Service, emphasizing the importance of listening deeply to customers and frontline employees, reviewing sales conversations to improve performance, and aligning internal teams to deliver a unified customer experience. This episode offers practical strategies for sales professionals to build trust, create seamless handoffs, and focus on long-term relationships rather than short-term wins.KEY TAKEAWAYSTransparency about pricing, timelines, expectations, and results builds stronger customer trust.The “go-live gap”—the period between signing and implementation—is critical to customer satisfaction and retention.Long-term customer lifetime value should take priority over quick transactional wins.Sales professionals shape the customer experience because they are often the first face of the organization.Strong internal alignment between sales, implementation, and customer success ensures a consistent experience.Listening more than talking helps sales professionals better understand customer needs.Genuine care and attention toward prospects differentiate sellers in a crowded marketplace.HIGHLIGHT QUOTES“Selling from the heart means being transparent—about price, timelines, expectations, and results.”“The more I spoke, the better I sounded… but that didn't mean people would buy.”“You don't have to be great. You just have to beat the DMV… but somewhere between Zappos and the DMV.”“Care more than everybody else.”“You don't close a sale. You open a relationship.”“Customers will easily go to your competitor—even if they have to pay more—for a better experience.”ADDITIONAL RESOURCESExplore the secrets of heart-centered leadership and thriving workplace cultures with Culture from the Heart Podcast!

The year was 1917, and revolution was in the air in Russia. After sustaining heavy losses in WW1, the fall of the House of Romanov seemed inevitable. And one night the Tsar, his wife, and their five children, were shot, stabbed, burned with acid, set on fire, blown up with grenades and buried deep in Koptyaki forest.

Why do people stop chasing their dreams even when they once believed in them?In this episode, Kevin and Alan explore the real reason most people quit long before success arrives. It is rarely about effort. Belief fades. Expectations collide with reality. Uncertainty begins to outweigh the goal. Through years of entrepreneurship, coaching, and thousands of podcast episodes, they have watched the same pattern repeat. The people who keep going approach belief differently. They understand the uncomfortable space between starting and succeeding.Press play and confront the moment most people turn back._______________________Learn more about:Track the Work.

We're celebrating women's history all month long on The Nikki & Brie Show! This episode features a true trailblazer, Emmy and Peabody Award-winning investigative journalist Mariana van Zeller. From covering black markets and war zones to sitting face-to-face with cartel members and global scammers, Mariana doesn't just report the story… she walks straight into it. And she does it with fearlessness, empathy, and an unwavering commitment to truth. In this powerful conversation, Mariana opens up about carving her own path in male-dominated spaces, refusing to take “no” for an answer (even if she needs to knock on a dean's door), and why understanding the why behind crime is more important than judgment. Nikki & Brie dive deep into courage, persistence, motherhood, purpose, and what it truly costs to pursue a calling that changes the world. This is the energy we're bringing all month long — bold women, real stories, raw truth, and impact that lingers long after the mic turns off. Mariana sets the tone for a series filled with resilience, evolution, and unapologetic power. Press play, these women have something to say! Call Nikki & Brie at 833-GARCIA2 and leave a voicemail!

If your heart races before every session. If you replay pricing conversations in your head at 2 a.m. If you've ever thought, "I'm just too shy for this." This episode is your permission slip to stop trying to be louder and start being smarter. Sarah shares why being introverted isn't the thing holding you back, it might be your biggest advantage.

You'll walk away with: • A powerful reframe that turns "I'm awkward" into "I'm deeply attuned" • Why scripts and systems calm anxiety and make selling feel natural • The three conversations that actually grow your business, and how introverts win at all of them If you're tired of thinking you have to be bubbly, pushy, or someone you're not to succeed, this is the truth your nervous system has been waiting to hear. You don't need a new personality. You need a plan. Press play and let's build it together.
