Grief, Gratitude, and Remembering True Nature After My Father's PassingHost Rahul N Singh returns to The Bearded Mystic Podcast after a break and shares that his father died last month, reflecting on grief, regrets, and learning to face loss directly without denying emotions or spiraling in them. He describes finding steadiness through prayer, simran, and witnessing feelings, emphasizing that memories remain and that his father was a major influence on his spirituality. Rahul expresses gratitude for being present in his father's final moments and for support from community, family, friends, and his wife, noting the importance of staying connected rather than withdrawing from spirituality. He highlights non-dual teachings about abiding as pure consciousness, remembering one's true nature, and viewing death through the lens of oneness, including references to Nij Gar and the Bhagavad Gita.Send us Fan MailSupport the showSupport me via Paypal: https://www.paypal.biz/beardedmysticJoin our Discord Server: https://discord.gg/hnRf7wESwXVisit my website: https://www.thebeardedmysticpodcast.com/Want a one-on-one spiritual discussion with The Bearded Mystic - book here: https://www.thebeardedmysticpodcast.com/p/spiritual-discussion/You can follow me and contact me on social media:TikTok: https://vm.tiktok.com/ZMdk3HPJh/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thebeardedmysticpodcast/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/TheBeardedMysticPodcast/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/The-Bearded-Mystic-PodcastBluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/beardedmystic.bsky.socialBecome a Patron: https://www.patreon.com/thebeardedmysticpodcast

This week, Michelle, Rahul and Will explore the world of dynamic pricing, where prices go up when demand is high and come down when demand drops. It's already standard in travel and hospitality. Now, it's expanding into live events, and this year, it reached the World Cup. Supporters say it's simple economics, charging what people are willing to pay. Critics argue it risks pricing ordinary fans out of the experiences they love. So how does dynamic pricing really work? Why has it become one of the most controversial trends in live entertainment? And as organisers push to maximise revenue, are we seeing the future of events, or the point where fans push back?Hosts: Will Bain, Michelle Fleury and Rahul Tandon Producer: Rebecca Smyllie(Picture: The 2026 FIFA World Cup logo is placed over the original logo of the Hard Rock stadium in Miami, Florida, USA.

Around 2016, buoyed by so-called data kranti ("data revolution"), an aspirational neo-middle class of users in India accessed internet for the first time on their mobile phones. Unlimited: Aspirational Politics and Mobile Media Distribution (MIT Press, 2026) tells the story of digital infrastructures that are being created by state-corporations for content and money to move and reach such users. It interrogates how their design impact the forms of inclusions and exclusions enacted as well as the horizon of social behaviors and expectations in "Digital India." The book contends that to understand the possibilities and limits of India's aspirational politics, media studies scholars should attend to infrastructures of aspiration: the distributional logistics of streaming content and mobile money are the infrastructural backbone that recalibrate thresholds of aspirational goals. Digital content media distribution is also shaped by how user practices get entangled with particular affordances of platforms, and hence the need to study both participatory cultures of circulation and logistics of distribution together. Drawing on in-depth interviews, ethnographic fieldwork, critical discourse analysis and participant observation, the book traces the supply chains of content delivery networks enabling streaming video-on-demand services and informal ways of circulating "vernacular" music videos through memory cards. Unlimited does not restrict itself to formal media infrastructures, but also researches online phishing and lending scam assemblages to understand how such scams perform critical boundary work to reveal the cracks in and workings of financial distribution networks. This book offers a systematic examination of distribution considerations—including localization strategies—required for imagining mobile phone users across the varied regional geographies of "Digital India." Rahul Mukherjee is Associate Professor of TV & New Media and graduate chair in the Department of Cinema & Media Studies at University of Pennsylvania. His teaching and research focus on the logistical and environmental dimensions of digital infrastructures and platforms. Rahul is the author of the monograph Radiant Infrastructures, and his work has been published in Critical Inquiry, SM+S, New Media & Society, and Science, Technology & Human Values. He has co-edited a special issue on "Media Power in Digital Asia" for Media, Culture & Society journal. Priyam Sinha is an Alexander Von Humboldt Postdoctoral Research Fellow at the Institute for Asian and African Studies, Humboldt University in Berlin.

Fluent Fiction - Hindi: Neha's Choice: Bridging Dreams at a Parent-Teacher Meet Find the full episode transcript, vocabulary words, and more:fluentfiction.com/hi/episode/2026-05-16-22-34-01-hi Story Transcript:Hi: सुनहरी वसंत का मौसम था।En: It was the golden season of spring.Hi: स्कूल प्रांगण में हर तरफ रंग-बिरंगे फूल खिले थे।En: In the school yard, colorful flowers were blooming everywhere.Hi: पेड़-पौधे नई कोपलों से भर चुके थे।En: The trees and plants were filled with new buds.Hi: आज माता-पिता शिक्षक-सम्मेलन का दिन था।En: Today was the day of the parent-teacher conference.Hi: कक्षा आठवीं की छात्रा नेहा अपने माता-पिता के साथ अपनी कक्षा के बाहर खड़ी थी।En: Kaksha eighth student Neha was standing outside her class with her parents.Hi: नेहा एक मेधावी छात्रा थी।En: Neha was an intelligent student.Hi: उसके पिता, राहुल, चाहते थे कि नेहा एक इंजीनियर बने और उनका नाम रोशन करे।En: Her father, Rahul, wanted her to become an engineer and make him proud.Hi: वहीं उसकी मां, अनीशा, चाहती थीं कि नेहा अपनी रचनात्मकता को अपनाए और कला में आगे बढ़े।En: On the other hand, her mother, Anisha, wanted Neha to embrace her creativity and advance in the arts.Hi: दोनों अक्सर नेहा की भविष्य की योजनाओं को लेकर लड़ते रहते थे।En: They often argued about Neha's future plans.Hi: लेकिन आज नेहा ने ठान लिया था कि वह उनसे अपनी सच्ची आकांक्षाएँ बताएगी।En: But today, Neha had decided that she would share her true aspirations with them.Hi: स्कूल के सम्मेलन कक्ष में कई माता-पिता बैठे थे।En: Many parents were seated in the school's conference room.Hi: कमरा सामान्य था, लेकिन आज उसमें तनाव का माहौल अधिक था।En: The room was ordinary, but today it had more of a tense atmosphere.Hi: नेहा, राहुल, और अनीशा तीनों शिक्षक के सामने बैठे।En: Neha, Rahul, and Anisha all sat in front of the teacher.Hi: शिक्षक ने नेहा की तारीफ की, मगर बोली, "नेहा, अपने माता-पिता को कुछ कहना चाहती है।En: The teacher praised Neha but said, "Neha wants to tell her parents something."Hi: "नेहा ने गहरी सांस ली और बोलना शुरू किया, "मम्मी-पापा, मैं आप दोनों से बहुत प्यार करती हूं।En: Neha took a deep breath and began to speak, "Mom and Dad, I love you both very much.Hi: मैं समझती हूं कि आप दोनों मेरे लिए बेहतरीन भविष्य चाहते हैं।En: I understand that both of you want the best future for me.Hi: लेकिन आपके विचार सिर्फ मुझे आशंकित करते हैं।En: But your ideas only make me apprehensive.Hi: मैं इंजीनियर बनना चाहती हूं और मुझे कला से भी प्यार है।En: I want to become an engineer, and I also love art.Hi: लेकिन सबसे पहले, मैं चाहती हूं कि आप दोनों साथ मिलकर मेरी पसंद को समर्थन दें।En: But most importantly, I want both of you to come together and support my choice."Hi: "नेहा के शब्दों ने राहुल और अनीशा को सोचने पर मजबूर कर दिया।En: Neha's words made Rahul and Anisha think.Hi: कुछ पलों के लिए कमरे में सन्नाटा छा गया।En: For a few moments, silence prevailed in the room.Hi: लेकिन फिर, राहुल ने मुस्कुरा कर कहा, "अच्छा, अगर हमारी बेटी इंजीनियरिंग करते हुए कला का भी आनंद लेना चाहती है, तो हमें उसका समर्थन करना चाहिए।En: But then, Rahul smiled and said, "Alright, if our daughter wants to enjoy art while pursuing engineering, then we should support her."Hi: " अनीशा ने सहमति में सिर हिलाया और कहा, "हम मिलकर नेहा के सपनों को पूरा करने में उसकी मदद करेंगे।En: Anisha nodded in agreement and said, "We will help Neha fulfill her dreams together."Hi: "सम्मेलन से बाहर निकलते वक्त, नेहा के चेहरे पर आत्मविश्वास झलक रहा था।En: As they were leaving the conference, confidence was evident on Neha's face.Hi: वह जानती थी कि अब उसका परिवार उसके साथ है और उसके माता-पिता मिलकर उसकी इच्छाओं को समझने की कोशिश करेंगे।En: She knew that now her family was with her and her parents would try to understand her desires together.Hi: राहुल और अनीशा ने एक-दूसरे के विचारों को समझना शुरू कर दिया था और उनकी बातों में सकारात्मकता आ गई थी।En: Rahul and Anisha began to understand each other's perspectives, and positivity was reflected in their conversations.Hi: इस प्रकार, एक गंभीर बैठक ने परिवार को एक दूसरे के नज़रों से चीजों को देखने का मौका दिया और वे घर की ओर लौटते समय एक नए संकल्प के साथ आगे की ओर बढ़े।En: Thus, a serious meeting gave the family a chance to see things from each other's perspectives, and they moved forward with a new resolution as they headed home.

Synopsis: At the intersection of personal mission and biotech leadership, Rahul Chaturvedi sits down with Catherine Owen Adams, CEO of Acadia Pharmaceuticals, for a deeply personal and strategically rich conversation on leadership, commercialization, and the future of neuropsychiatry. From starting as a pharmacist in the UK to pivoting from R&D into commercial leadership at Johnson & Johnson, rising through Bristol Myers Squibb, and ultimately stepping into her first biotech CEO role at Acadia, Catherine shares how storytelling became the throughline of her career—transforming science into physician trust, investor conviction, and enterprise vision. In this episode, Catherine opens up about the personal family experiences with neurodegenerative disease that made Acadia's focus on CNS and rare disease feel like her “Goldilocks opportunity.” She offers a candid look at the realities of being a first-time CEO, managing investor ecosystems, building the right C-suite, balancing billion-dollar commercial execution with high-risk R&D, and navigating the emotional stakes of developing therapies for Parkinson's disease psychosis, Alzheimer's disease psychosis, Rett syndrome, and beyond. Rahul and Catherine also explore the seismic shifts reshaping biotech—from AI-powered commercialization and patient services to policy advocacy through BIO, FDA modernization, and the strategic pressures facing CNS innovation. This episode is both a masterclass in biotech leadership and a powerful reminder that the best CEOs don't just run companies—they tell stories that move science, markets, and patients forward.

In the immediate aftermath of the Supreme Court's MAGA 6-3 majority dealing what may be the final death blow to the 1965 Voting Rights' Act, civil rights attorney and Georgia state Senate candidate Rahul Garabadu joined me Thursday to discuss the reality of a newfound race to gerrymander with reckless abandon to eliminate black voting power & representation; oh and to discuss is candidacy in a hotly contested state Senate district that a Democrat will win. The question is: which one?- - - Hear me out: what if the political violence we ALL abhor is all that MAGA and the GOP leaves their political opposition? We're not there, yet, but as the race to gerrymander (already before the SCOTUS ruling and then again after), along with the many and varied ways the SAVE Act seeks to suppress voter participation further, is it not enraging that a nation with a razor-thin liberal majority electorate is ruled by a party they rarely vote in favor for and with a 2/3rds majority conservative high court? Take away the options to right that course, and what is the left left with?Conservative pundit Erick Erickson is no stranger to threats of violence on him and his family - from MAGA - but piously believes progressives need to "take a look in the mirror" on its rhetorical choices. The problem is he can't name a leftwing political leader that fans those flames. He also finger-wags at conspiracy theorists dismissing the White House correspondents' dinner near-attempt as some MAGA conspiracy. I'm not there yet, myself, but there are some curious issues with the whole setup, as Leigh McGowan, aka "Politics Girl," points out.
What do you do when the person you love wants something you're not sure you can give?In this episode of Books & Beyond, Tara speaks with Rahul Singh, debut novelist and academic, about his book Unfolding, which follows two gay men navigating a long-term relationship where their expectations of love begin to diverge.The conversation moves through the emotional complexity of open relationships, and how the book holds space for desire without rushing to label or judge it. They also discuss the novel's domestic world, where much of the story unfolds inside the home, and how class and gender shape the characters' lives and choices.Rahul also shares the unusual journey of writing the book without a publishing contract, across multiple drafts and years of uncertainty, all while his parents still don't know what the novel is really about.If you've ever struggled to stay on the same page in love, this one will stay with you.Books Mentioned in the Episode:Cobalt Blue by Sachin KundalkarFunny Boy by Shyam SelvaduraiThe Portrait of a Lady by Henry James‘Books and Beyond with Bound' is the podcast where Tara Khandelwal and Michelle D'costa uncover how their books reflect the realities of our lives and society today.

Fluent Fiction - Hindi: Finding Solitude & Secrets: Aarav's Quest in Lodhi Garden Find the full episode transcript, vocabulary words, and more:fluentfiction.com/hi/episode/2026-04-26-22-34-01-hi Story Transcript:Hi: लोधी गार्डन की सुबह थी, सूरज की पहली किरणें पेड़ों के बीच से छनकर आ रही थीं।En: It was a morning in Lodhi Garden, with the first rays of the sun filtering through the trees.Hi: हरी-भरी घास पर ओस की बूंदें मोती जैसी चमक रहीं थीं।En: Dew drops on the lush green grass were shining like pearls.Hi: स्कूल की ओर से फील्ड ट्रिप का आयोजन किया गया था।En: A field trip had been organized by the school.Hi: तीन दोस्त - आरव, मीरा और राहुल - अपनी क्लास के साथ वहाँ पहुँचे थे।En: Three friends - Aarav, Meera, and Rahul - had arrived there with their class.Hi: मीरा हमेशा की तरह सबसे आगे चल रही थी।En: Meera was walking at the front as always.Hi: उसकी आँखें नई चीज़ों की खोज में चमक रही थीं।En: Her eyes were sparkling with the quest for new things.Hi: हर खास पेड़ और फूल देखकर वह उत्साही हो जाती।En: She would become enthusiastic at the sight of every special tree and flower.Hi: राहुल थोड़ा पीछे चलता था, कैमरा हाथ में लिए, अपने आस-पास की खूबसूरती को कैद करने में व्यस्त।En: Rahul walked a little behind, busy capturing the beauty around him with his camera in hand.Hi: और आरव, जिसे कुदरत की गहराई को समझने का बहुत शौक था, अपने भीतर की खोज में खोया था।En: And Aarav, who had a great passion for understanding the depths of nature, was lost in his own inner exploration.Hi: आरव के मन में एक प्रकृति का जर्नल बनाने का विचार था।En: Aarav had an idea to create a nature journal.Hi: लेकिन उसके लिए उसे प्रेरणा चाहिए थी।En: But for that, he needed inspiration.Hi: परंतु मूडी क्लासमेट्स की हंसी और किलकारियों में उसे ध्यान केंद्रित करने में परेशानी हो रही थी।En: However, the laughter and cheers of the moody classmates were making it difficult for him to concentrate.Hi: उसकी ख्वाहिश थी कि कुछ अलग, कुछ अनोखा खोजा जाए, जिससे उसका जर्नल खास बने।En: He wished to discover something different, something unique, that would make his journal special.Hi: वह भीड़भाड़ से थोड़ा दूर हो गया।En: He moved a little away from the crowd.Hi: आरव ने सोचा, 'शायद अगर मैं थोड़ी शांति में जाऊँ, तो कुछ अनोखा मिलेगा।En: Aarav thought, 'Perhaps if I go into some peace, I'll find something unique.'Hi: ' वह मुख्य पगडंडी से हटकर एक छोटे से रास्ते पर चल पड़ा।En: He stepped off the main path onto a small trail.Hi: कुछ दूर जाने के बाद उसे एक सुनसान कोना नजर आया।En: After walking some distance, he saw a secluded corner.Hi: वहाँ के फूल खिले थे और एक सुगंध फैली थी।En: The flowers there were blooming, and a fragrance was spreading around.Hi: उसने एक साफ हवा की गहरी सांस ली और खुद को ताजगी से भरे पाया।En: He took a deep breath of the fresh air and found himself refreshed.Hi: अचानक उसकी नजर एक दुर्लभ फूल पर पड़ी, जिसे उसने पहले कभी नहीं देखा था।En: Suddenly, his eyes fell upon a rare flower that he had never seen before.Hi: वह फूल अपनी अनोखी बनावट और रंग-संयोजन से अद्वितीय था।En: The flower was unique with its unusual texture and color combination.Hi: आरव का दिल खुशी से भर गया।En: Aarav's heart filled with joy.Hi: उसने अपनी कॉपी निकाली और उस फूल की तस्वीर खींचने और उसे स्केच करने लगा।En: He took out his notebook and began to take a picture and sketch the flower.Hi: जब आरव वापस अपने दोस्तों के पास लौटा, उसके चेहरे पर संतोष और आत्मविश्वास झलक रहा था।En: When Aarav returned to his friends, contentment and confidence were evident on his face.Hi: उसने महसूस किया कि कभी-कभी अकेले रहकर, खुद को सूनापन देने से ही असली प्रेरणा मिलती है।En: He realized that sometimes being alone and giving oneself solitude is what brings true inspiration.Hi: फील्ड ट्रिप का वह दिन आरव के लिए कुछ खास लेकर आया था।En: That day of the field trip brought something special for Aarav.Hi: उसने न केवल अपने जर्नल के लिए एक अनोखी खोज की, बल्कि वह खुद से भी बेहतर तरीके से जुड़ सका।En: Not only did he make a unique discovery for his journal, but he also connected with himself in a better way.Hi: वाकई, लोधी गार्डन का वह दिन उसे हमेशा याद रहेगा।En: Indeed, that day in Lodhi Garden would always be remembered by him.Hi: अनुपम अनुभव से भरी वह सुबह आरव के दिल में बस गई, और उसने सीखा कि कभी-कभी खुद को ढूँढने के लिए अलग राह पकड़नी पड़ती है।En: That morning filled with extraordinary experiences settled in Aarav's heart, and he learned that sometimes to find oneself, one has to take a different path.

Veteran trial lawyers Mark Lanier and Rahul Ravipudi — the legal team that just won a landmark bellwether verdict against Meta and YouTube — join the Chuck Toddcast to explain how civil litigation is doing more to rein in big tech than the federal government has managed in a decade. They walk through how they persuaded a jury that these platforms engaged in negligent and punitive conduct toward children, systematically dismantling the "it's on the parents" defense by showing that parents simply aren't equipped to manage what amounts to engineered addiction — and that when that addiction takes hold in children, it causes irreparable harm by literally rewiring developing brains. They reveal that Meta's own internal research documents were devastating at trial, that former tech employees took the stand to call out the companies' safety practices, and that these platforms behaved exactly like Big Tobacco did — knowing the harm was real and burying the evidence. They break down how they proved addiction by design: endless scroll, autoplay, slot-machine psychology, and deliberately hidden safety features all created to maximize "time spent," a corporate metric fundamentally at odds with user wellbeing. The conversation gets into the nuts and bolts of the legal strategy and what comes next. Lanier and Ravipudi describe cross-examining Mark Zuckerberg, who they say couldn't handle basic questions about protecting kids, and explain why YouTube's defense — that it's a streaming service like Netflix rather than social media — collapsed once its own internal documents consistently referred to the platform as "social media." They explain that this is a bellwether case, meaning the judge used nine representative cases to establish facts and conditions that will now apply to roughly 3,000 other pending cases, with eight more trials coming and a settlement fund likely in the companies' future. The attorneys discuss whether tech companies are simply pricing these verdicts in as a cost of doing business (they argue settling would actually be a PR boon for the platforms), draw parallels and distinctions between big tech and tobacco, and offer concrete policy recommendations: a meaningful minimum age requirement, scrapping Section 230, nighttime curfews for minors, and removing the endless scroll. Their bottom line: tech companies won't do the right thing unless they're forced to, and the legal system is finally catching up to what regulators refused to address.

Quick Summary:The Space Show hosted science journalist Rahul Rao to discuss his new book on nanotechnology, focusing on applications in space and other fields. Rao explained that while humans have been using nanoscale materials for centuries, the field as we know it began developing after World War II, with significant breakthroughs in the 1980s and 1990s including the discovery of carbon nanotubes in 1991. The discussion covered both promising applications like medical nano surgery, spacecraft coatings, and environmental cleanup, as well as current challenges including material defects and scaling issues that limit practical implementation. While some applications like enhanced carbon fibers and aerospace coatings are already happening, more ambitious uses like space elevators remain in the future timeline, with widespread implementation likely in the 2030s rather than the near term. The conversation also addressed potential risks including environmental pollution from nanoparticles and weaponization concerns, though these were deemed less immediate than current technical challenges.SummaryRahul Rao, a science writer and journalist, discussed his focus on nanotechnology and space topics, highlighting the common use of nanomaterials in various scientific and engineering areas. He explained the historical development of nanotechnology, noting its origins in the post-World War II era and significant advancements in the 1980s and 1990s, including the discovery of carbon nanotubes in 1991. Rahul also addressed the current and potential future applications of nanotechnology, including the use of nanomaterials and the possibility of creating molecular-scale machines, though the boundaries of such advancements remain uncertain.David discussed his experience with the space elevator concept, noting its popularity in the early 2000s but questioning its current feasibility. Rahul explained that while carbon nanotubes and graphene are being developed at large scales, the materials remain too defective for a space elevator. The conversation highlighted the distinction between carbon nanotubes and carbon fiber, with Philip clarifying that they are different technologies.Phil explained the differences between carbon nanotubes and carbon fiber, noting that while carbon fiber is widely used in industries like aerospace and sports equipment, carbon nanotubes remain challenging to scale up effectively due to manufacturing limitations. Rahul discussed his interest in nanotechnology, highlighting its diverse applications beyond ambitious concepts like space elevators, including practical innovations like mRNA vaccines and CO2 storage using MOF nanomaterials. When asked about technology readiness levels, Rahul indicated that while the CO2 storage application is still in laboratory stages, similar substances are being tested in pilot projects. Marshall mentioned his interest in 2DPA-1, a two-dimensional polymer with properties similar to steel, though development in the past four years has been limited to improving manufacturing methods.Rahul discussed the timeline challenges with nanotechnology materials, comparing them to historical examples like aluminum, which took decades to develop into widely used materials. He explained current nanotechnology research areas, including nanoparticles for targeting disease pathogens and nanoscale tools for medical applications like cancer treatment. When asked about self-healing cables for space elevators, Rahul was not aware of any proven or published research on this specific technology, though he noted it was mentioned in discussions. David shared information about self-correcting undersea cables from the 1990s that could reroute signals around damage, though these are now losing economic value due to satellite technology like Starlink.Rahul discussed current and future applications of nanotechnology, highlighting medical applications as likely to receive significant attention in the coming years. He mentioned the development of enhanced carbon fibers with carbon nanotubes for use in aircraft and spacecraft coatings, as well as the potential for using carbon nanotubes in small electronics within the next decade. Rahul also explained that quantum dots, another form of nanotechnology, are being used in QLED televisions and discussed the challenges in producing defect-free carbon nanotubes. When asked about potential “nano nightmares,” Rahul identified environmental pollution and the risk of nanoparticles entering the human respiratory system as significant concerns.Rahul explained that incidental nanomaterials, which naturally exist, pose less immediate hazard than engineered nanomaterials that might escape into the environment. John Hunt raised concerns about potential misuse of nanotechnology for weaponry, though Rahul considered this a less pressing issue than environmental pollution. Marshall inquired about the relationship between nanoparticles and radiation, to which Rahul responded he was not aware of specific issues but acknowledged the potential intersection. Rahul outlined several applications of nanomaterials in space, including thermal insulation, heat shields, and nanoparticle-enhanced propulsion, suggesting these could emerge within the next 5-10 years.Rahul discussed the current state and future potential of nanomaterials, particularly carbon nanotubes and graphene. He explained that while nanomaterials are already being used in aerospace applications and will continue to grow in the next five years, broader applications like those in automotive industries or advanced tires are likely still decades away. Rahul noted that increased private sector interest and startup activity could drive progress, though he expected any impact to be gradual rather than revolutionary. The discussion also covered potential applications in space exploration, environmental engineering, and construction materials, with Rahul emphasizing that while theoretical possibilities exist, practical implementation timelines remain uncertain.Special thanks to our sponsors:American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics, Helix Space in Luxembourg, Celestis Memorial Spaceflights, Astrox Corporation, Dr. Haym Benaroya of Rutgers University, The Space Settlement Progress Blog by John Jossy, The Atlantis Project, and Artless EntertainmentNo Program for Friday, April 24, 2026 | Friday 24 Apr 2026 930AM PTGuests: Dr. David LivingstonNo Program todayNo program for Sunday, April 26, 2026 | Sunday 26 Apr 2026 1200PM PTGuests: Dr. David LivingstonNo program todayThe program resumes its regular schedule on Friday, May 1, 2026.Our Toll Free Line for Live Broadcasts: 1-866-687-7223 (Not in service at this time)For real time program participation, email Dr. Space at: drspace@thespaceshow.com for instructions and access.The Space Show is a non-profit 501C3 through its parent, One Giant Leap Foundation, Inc.
