Have you listened to the FULL EPISODE yet?"They want you to be the old you because it makes them being comfortable. The new you makes people be uncomfortable." - JeezyIn a deeply personal conversation, rap icon Jeezy opens up about a pivotal moment that changed the trajectory of his life - a $10 million bail situation with his crew that exposed hard truths about loyalty and responsibility. After getting everyone out of jail and receiving no support in return, Jeezy faced the devastating realization that despite his unwavering support for others, that same dedication wasn't reciprocated. This awakening led him to make what he describes as the hardest decision of his life: choosing to walk alone.The conversation reveals Jeezy's remarkable journey from a place of constant fear and anxiety about impending imprisonment to a path of deliberate personal growth. At 40 years old, he began seeking wisdom from thought leaders like Robert Greene, John Maxwell, and TD Jakes, transforming not just his mindset but his entire approach to life. Through this evolution, Jeezy discovered that changing oneself often means growing apart from familiar circles, as he learned that "the new you makes people be uncomfortable."Sign up for the Greatness newsletter!

Part Three. Today's episode has a unique twist: I'm interviewing a storytelling expert to share his own story. My guest, Chris Hare, is a strategic narrative advisor and coach for companies like Amazon and Microsoft, guiding leaders and executives with his approach, Atomic Storytelling. His method breaks down complex stories into their core, resonant elements. In this three-part series, we'll journey through Chris's experiences in three stages. On Wednesday, in Part 1, we explored his expertise in helping businesses craft compelling corporate stories and understand the connection between story and narrative. On Thursday, in Part 2, we looked at storytelling for personal transformation as Chris shared some of the best and worst stories he had heard or felt.  He also opened up about his own mental health challenges. Then, today, in Part 3, he'll introduce tools we can use to develop our own stories and narratives. And here's a personal confession—I told him one of his exercises might just make me cry! I'll also be sharing my own experience with another exercise, highlighting both its challenges and insights.

This Day in Legal History: Beer Hall PutschOn November 8, 1923, Adolf Hitler and the Nazi Party launched a failed coup known as the Beer Hall Putsch in Munich, Germany. Hitler, alongside other far-right leaders, sought to overthrow the Weimar Republic by forcibly taking control of the Bavarian government and inspiring a national revolution. The plan was set into motion when Hitler and his supporters stormed a Munich beer hall where Bavarian officials were gathered, intending to coerce them into backing the coup. However, the attempt quickly unraveled. As the Nazis marched through Munich, they were met with resistance from police forces, resulting in a violent confrontation that left 15 Nazi supporters and four police officers dead. The coup collapsed within hours, and Hitler was subsequently arrested and tried for treason. Sentenced to five years in prison, he served only one but used this time to dictate Mein Kampf, a manifesto outlining his extremist ideology and future plans for Germany. Though the Beer Hall Putsch was a tactical failure, it marked a significant turning point for Hitler and the Nazi Party. The publicity surrounding Hitler's trial and imprisonment gave him a national platform, which he used to spread his message and gain a wider following. The failed coup illustrated both the fragility of the Weimar Republic and the determination of extremist groups to challenge democratic governance in Germany, foreshadowing the political upheaval that would follow in the coming years.A federal judge has once again dismissed claims seeking to hold Mark Zuckerberg personally responsible in multiple lawsuits accusing Meta and other social media companies of causing addictive behavior in children. US District Judge Yvonne Gonzalez Rogers found that the updated complaints failed to meet the legal standards required to establish Zuckerberg's individual liability. While this ruling removes Zuckerberg as an individual defendant, it does not affect the ongoing claims against Meta as a company. Plaintiffs argue that Zuckerberg ignored internal warnings from Meta employees regarding the potential dangers of Instagram and Facebook for younger users, allegedly concealing this information from the public.Corporate law traditionally shields CEOs from personal liability, making it challenging to hold Zuckerberg accountable without clear evidence of direct involvement. Judge Rogers noted that, although future evidence might reveal more direct actions by Zuckerberg, the present allegations do not meet the threshold for corporate officer liability. This legal action is part of a broader litigation effort, involving over 1,000 lawsuits by families and school districts in California against Meta, Google, ByteDance, and Snap, alleging similar harms related to social media addiction among adolescents.Zuckerberg Avoids Personal Liability in Meta Addiction SuitsA federal judge in New York dismissed a copyright lawsuit brought by news outlets Raw Story and AlterNet against OpenAI, ruling that the plaintiffs had not shown a concrete injury. The outlets argued that OpenAI unlawfully used their articles to train its AI models, including ChatGPT, and violated the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) by removing copyright management information (CMI) from the articles, such as author names and copyright notices. However, U.S. District Judge Colleen McMahon determined that removing CMI alone, without further dissemination or significant harm, did not meet the required threshold for legal standing under the DMCA.Judge McMahon permitted the plaintiffs to submit an amended complaint but expressed skepticism about their ability to present a valid claim. According to McMahon, the real issue seemed to be the uncompensated use of the articles for training purposes rather than the removal of CMI. Although Raw Story and AlterNet attorney Matt Topic stated confidence in addressing the court's concerns through amendments, McMahon warned that the case might lack a viable legal theory under current copyright laws. This lawsuit aligns with a broader wave of legal actions from media, authors, and artists who are challenging AI companies over the use of copyrighted material in model training. In a related development, The New York Times filed a similar lawsuit against OpenAI in December, marking the first major challenge from a media outlet over AI training practices.OpenAI Defeats Raw Story Copyright, Training Lawsuit, for NowOpenAI defeats news outlets' copyright lawsuit over AI training, for now | ReutersA federal judge in Texas has struck down President Biden's immigration program aimed at providing a citizenship path for certain undocumented immigrants married to U.S. citizens. The "Keeping Families Together" initiative, announced in June, targeted approximately 500,000 individuals but faced immediate legal challenges from Texas and several Republican-led states. U.S. District Judge J. Campbell Barker ruled that the program overstepped Biden's executive authority, leaving it blocked as Biden's term nears its end.The initiative has been a focal point in the political landscape, with immigration considered a top priority issue. Former President Donald Trump, who defeated Vice President Kamala Harris in the recent election, is expected to implement strict immigration policies, including potential rollbacks of Biden's program. A recent Reuters/Ipsos poll indicates that Americans expect Trump to prioritize immigration enforcement, with many anticipating large-scale deportations. While the Biden administration could appeal the ruling, the White House has not yet commented on potential next steps.US judge rules against Biden legalization program for immigrant spouses | ReutersA federal judge has warned Rudy Giuliani, former New York City mayor and attorney for Donald Trump, that he could be held in civil contempt if he doesn't comply with a court order to surrender certain assets. Giuliani was ordered in October to turn over property, including his Manhattan apartment and other valuables, to Ruby Freeman and her daughter Shaye Moss, two Georgia election workers whom he defamed. Freeman and Moss won a $148 million judgment against Giuliani after a jury found he had spread false accusations that they helped rig the 2020 election.Judge Lewis Liman expressed frustration with Giuliani's delays, giving him until next week to meet the court's demands. The plaintiffs' attorney, Aaron Nathan, suggested Giuliani may be shifting assets to avoid collection, including opening new bank accounts and forming a new LLC. Giuliani, meanwhile, claims he is cooperating and accused the plaintiffs of being vindictive, citing their attempt to seize a family heirloom watch. Judge Liman dismissed that argument, affirming that the heirloom was still subject to seizure under the law.Giuliani recently filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy, but his case was dismissed after he failed to disclose his full financial situation, removing his legal protections from creditors. This comes as Giuliani faces broader legal challenges, including disbarment and criminal charges related to efforts to overturn the 2020 election results in Georgia and Arizona.US judge threatens Rudy Giuliani with contempt in election workers' case | ReutersThis week's closing theme is by Antonín Dvořák.This week's closing theme is Antonín Dvořák's Piano Quintet No. 2 in A Major, Op. 81, one of the most beloved chamber works in the Romantic repertoire. Composed in 1887, this quintet exemplifies Dvořák's talent for weaving Czech folk music elements into classical forms, creating a vibrant work filled with expressive melodies and rhythmic vitality. Dvořák had already achieved international acclaim by this time, and his music was celebrated for its distinctive blend of Slavic folk traditions and classical elegance. In this quintet, he masterfully combines lyrical beauty with an earthy, folk-inspired character, making it both accessible and profoundly moving.The piece opens with an Allegro ma non tanto, which means “fast, but not too much,” where a lush cello theme sets a warm and expansive mood that's developed between the strings and piano. The second movement, a Dumka, draws on a traditional Slavic musical form that alternates between melancholic and lively sections, allowing for both introspection and joy. Dvořák contrasts this with a lively Furiant for the third movement, featuring energetic cross-rhythms that mimic Czech dance patterns, adding excitement and rhythmic playfulness.The quintet closes with a spirited Finale, where Dvořák's signature energy and folk influences shine through in a triumphant, sweeping conclusion. Throughout, the dialogue between piano and strings feels rich and conversational, each instrument playing a unique role in the music's storytelling. The Piano Quintet No. 2 captures Dvořák at the height of his compositional powers, blending technical mastery with deep national pride and an unmistakable Romantic warmth. It's an ideal selection to end the week on a vibrant and emotionally rich note, as Dvořák's music reminds us of the beauty in blending tradition with innovation.Without further ado, Antonín Dvořák's Piano Quintet No. 2 in A Major, Op. 81, enjoy.  This is a public episode.

I'll also be sharing my own experience with another exercise, highlighting both its challenges and insights. Key Highlights of Our Interview: Rewriting Your Inner Cassette Tape “I find it helpful and more visceral to think about our personal narratives as a cassette tape—a tape that's playing in our head that we're constantly writing, rewriting, and adjusting.” Building One Authentic Narrative Across Multiple Worlds “A serial CEO I worked with wanted one narrative that connected his private equity, board roles, and yoga community. The result was an authentic narrative rooted in his true self that could be lensed across different audiences.” Proximity Blinds Us to Our Own Stories "We're so close to our own narrative and stories that we don't see the broader picture… if you're building with Lego, you might not see that there's a gigantic pile of Lego behind you." Changing the Inputs to Shift the Narrative and Change the Outcome “If you continue to put in the same inputs, things likely won't change… One of the positive inputs I changed was I got into fly fishing, and that was part of changing those inputs to shift not only the narrative but the outcomes.” The Power of Raw Storytelling "Our stories are not always the really clean, really curated story that makes us look good, but that raw story that has the power to shift the future."

Key Highlights of Our Interview: Stories Fuel the Narrative “In my mind, stories are time-bound: this happened, it started here, it ended there. But the narrative is ongoing—it's an architecture shaping the direction of an individual or company.” Storytelling's Overplayed? Think Again “For years, I wouldn't even call myself a storyteller because it was so overplayed. Everyone is using frameworks like the hero's journey as if they're paint-by-numbers. But storytelling is far more complex.” The Narrative Flywheel: Stories That Drive Strategy “The stories are the fuel that flows into the flywheel. We synthesize them, find patterns, and decide where to play and how to win. Then, with experimentation and learning, we create more stories—and the flywheel keeps spinning." Human-Centered Design in Action: Logitech's Transformation “Bracken Darrell took Logitech's failing narrative and reframed it with a vision: human-centered design across every part of the company. This vision wasn't pushed from the top but inspired teams, driving Logitech's turnaround—from 30-day financial reporting to just two.” Connect with us: Host: Vince Chan | Guest: Chris Hare Chief Change Officer: Make Change Ambitiously.

A bitter and angry Donald Trump called into Fox & Friends on Wednesday morning to whine about his debate with Kamala Harris the night before, where he got absolutely obliterated by her. But he also made an admission that most of us saw coming - He doesn't know if he wants to do any more debates. He's running scared, and he can't afford to run and hide after such a disastrous performance on Tuesday evening.Also, reporters from Raw Story caught up with Marjorie Taylor Greene this week, where they asked her about reports of Donald Trump's failing mental health. This immediately sent Greene over the edge, and she blasted the media and Democrats for pushing what she says is an "absolute lie" and then accused President Biden of having dementia. Trump's mental problems are not a "lie" from Democrats - they are on full display for the world to see. And Democratic representative Eric Swalwell asked the question that millions of Americans have been dying to get an answer to this week during a tense hearing in the House of Representatives. Swalwell asked Jim Jordan if he was mentally doing ok. This question came about after Swalwell showed an image of a tweet posted by Jordan's Judiciary Committee that featured Donald Trump holding a kitten and a duck in reference to the repeatedly-debunked conspiracy theory that immigrants are eating people's pets. Finally, Lara Trump, Donald's daughter-in-law and co-chair of the RNC, appeared on CNN this week opposite host Kasie Hunt, where Lara was asked about Trump's false claims of fraud with mail-in ballots in the 2020 election. Lara attempted to defend Trump's remarks, but when Hunt asked her about specifics, Lara completely fell apart and was forced to admit that she had never seen the so-called evidence. Subscribe to our YouTube channel to stay up to date on all of Farron's content: https://www.youtube.com/FarronBalancedFollow Farron on social media!Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/FarronBalancedTwitter: https://twitter.com/farronbalancedInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/farronbalancedTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@farronbalanced?lang=enText and and let us know your thoughts on today's stories!

Appearing at the Democratic National Convention (DNC) in Chicago, Kamala Harris has accepted the party's nomination for president in the most important speech of her career so far. Taking the opportunity to outline her platform to millions of Americans set to cast her vote in November, she made passionate points for women's and reproductive rights, freedom and stability, addressed Israel and Gaza and other global conflicts, that Donald Trump “wants to be an autocrat himself” and described the Republican party as, simply put, "out of their minds”. It's been a big week for the democratic party at the Democratic National Convention, with political pageantry at its finest on display. Dave Levinthal, Editor-in-Chief of Raw Story, joins Bension Siebert live from Chicago to unpack what was said, and the week that was in American politics.  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

President Biden appeared at the first day of the Democratic National Convention. Raw Story's Dave Levinthal says it was clear the President didn't want to be giving the speech.

I talk again about fake behavior expert Jack Brown, whose pseudoscientific behavior analysis work I devoted a past episode to. Brown got some recent attention in a Raw Story article for an analysis he wrote about how Trump's body language at a press conference showed that Trump was lying. Topics discussed include: the silliness of Brown's work and why it's silly; tips for recognizing fake behavior experts; how this stuff connects to toxic political polarization; a reading of Brown's recent analysis with comments.    Learn more and sign up for a premium subscription at PeopleWhoReadPeople.com.

Our first story is an interview conducted by Producer Emeritus Rick Spisak with noted academician Professor Wendy Lynn Lee.      Our next story deals with the very real threat of violence coming from the Trump campaign, if their side loses the election. This is the "Trump Retribution Machine." Mainstream media treats these threats as the loony by-product of some mob of toothless, IQ challenged, inbred hillbilly reunion. It is not. Make no mistake, the violence witnessed for instance on January 6th, was implemented by such hillbillies along with some rather affluent professionals who love Trump's brand of neo Nazism. That being said, the Trump murder and retribution machine has been orchestrated and planned by Ivy League trained attorneys, high ranking military officers, billionaires, and corporate officers. One such operative is a former Green Beret named Ivan Raiklin, who has claimed the mantle of Trump's future 'Retribution Czar.' This retribution involves the premeditated plot to arrest and subsequently execute democratic office holders, liberals, and any minorities daring to get 'uppity.' This is not hyperbole. It is real.  We will also have our musical parodies. Come join me.  Jeanine

On this episode of Ford News, we dive into the postmortem on the first Presidential Debate. We discuss President Biden's less-than-stellar performance and the avalanche of negativity that followed it. Should Biden drop out of the race? Meanwhile, on the other side of the stage, Donald Trump told more lies than Pinocchio.What purpose did CNN's Jake Tapper and Dana Bash serve? In segment two, we discuss the Supreme Court's Chevron decision that will impact the ability of federal agencies to protect the American people. And the "Ford Fact Check" is solely dedicated to fact-checking the myriad of lies that Donald Trump told during the debate. Johnathan makes mince meat of Trump's garbage. LINKSBiden DebateAfter Halting Debate Performance, Biden Tries to Reassure Democrats at Rally - The New York Times (nytimes.com)FactChecking the Biden-Trump Debate - FactCheck.orgFact-checking the CNN presidential debate | CNN PoliticsIncreased Polling post-debateFirst post-debate poll reveals startling results in Trump-Biden battle: Who would've predicted this? - nj.comChevron Decision Supreme Court overturns 1984 Chevron precedent, curbing power of federal government | CNN Politics'Black Jobs'https://www.yahoo.com/news/hello-black-job-black-democrats-164140570.html?Trump con job versus Barber shop Black 'Betrayed' Black businessman accuses Trump aides of misleading him for a campaign event - Raw Story

US President Joe Biden and wannabe second term president Donald Trump faced off in the first presidential debate earlier today, with many expecting it to be a defining moment in the election campaign. We watched as Joe Biden appeared unsure and hesitant, while still landing blows on Trump. We saw Trump continue to attack Biden's family and legacy. It was gloves off from the outset and at times threatened to turn nasty. In this episode of The Briefing, we're joined by Dave Levinthal, editor-in-chief of Raw Story, to find out who won the debate, and whether either side will claim it has proven they're the best person to lead the US over the next four years.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Author and professor Eric Heinze joins Tim to talk about freedom of speech and expression at the most fundamental level. He recently wrote a book on free speech, but it's not exactly what you might expect. He explores free speech in a larger more fundamental context than America's First Amendment. He talks about it in the context of universal human rights. Eric tells us about the thinking behind his new book called, “The Most Human Right: Why Free Speech is Everything.” This episode was originally released May 9, 2022. https://traffic.libsyn.com/secure/shapingopinion/337_-_Eric_Heinze_Free_Speech.mp3 One of the benefits of having a podcast is that you get the chance to talk to a diverse set of really smart and interesting people. Sometimes those people write books, and that's the case with our guest today. As mentioned, the book Eric Heinze wrote is about free speech and human rights. Eric is a professor of law and humanities at Queen Mary University of London. In his book, he asks questions like, “What are human rights?” “Are they laid out definitively in the UN's Universal Declaration of Human Rights or the U.S. Bill of Rights?” Or, are they just items on a checklist, like a good standard of living, housing, dignity? That's how Eric frames his new book. But what caught my attention when reading the book is how deep he really goes on this topic. He doesn't flinch when he takes the stance that when global human rights programs fail, it is often the result of people being denied one basic human right – freedom of speech.

In this gripping episode of Faithful Politics, political host Will Wright and faithful host Pastor Josh Burtram sit down with Jordan Green,  investigative correspondent for Raw Story. Green brings his extensive experience covering right-wing extremism  to the table, along with insights from his work featured in renowned publications like the Washington Post, Daily Beast, and The Nation. The episode takes a deep dive into the resurgence of neo-Nazi movements and their impact on contemporary society, shedding light on an uncomfortable truth: the ideology of the Nazis, far from being a relic of the past, continues to influence extremist groups today.The discussion ventures into the history and evolution of white supremacist movements in the United States, tracing their roots from the aftermath of World War II to their transformation into violent, revolutionary factions post-Vietnam War. Green highlights the Greensboro Massacre as a pivotal moment, revealing how these groups shifted from vigilante extensions of state power to entities bent on overthrowing the U.S. government. The conversation also explores the modern incarnation of these movements, particularly focusing on the 2119 Blood and Soil crew, a neo-Nazi group that exemplifies the dangerous ideologies and tactics of these extremist factions.Jordan Green's detailed account of the radicalization process, facilitated by the internet, offers a stark warning about the ease with which young individuals can be drawn into these hate-fueled ideologies. The episode also delves into the challenges faced by law enforcement and society in countering these movements, highlighting the complex interplay between online radicalization, the spread of extremist ideologies, and the need for effective countermeasures.Article: Inside the neo-Nazi hate network grooming children for a race war Washington Post: https://www.washingtonpost.com/style/media/2024/02/20/raw-story-neo-nazi-journalist-house/Columbia Journalism Review: https://www.cjr.org/the_media_today/qa_john_scott-railton_citizen_lab_pegasus.php?mc_cid=d9b7da966b&mc_eid=17a0e5468cPoynter: https://mailchi.mp/poynter/j5t7097pwd?e=ebf010e3ccSupport the showTo learn more about the show, contact our hosts, or recommend future guests, click on the links below: Website: https://www.faithfulpoliticspodcast.com/ Faithful Host: Josh@faithfulpoliticspodcast.com Political Host: Will@faithfulpoliticspodcast.com Twitter: @FaithfulPolitik Instagram: faithful_politics Facebook: FaithfulPoliticsPodcast LinkedIn: faithfulpolitics Subscribe to our Substack: https://faithfulpolitics.substack.com/

There's a meme making the rounds  featuring a photo of some Trumper idiot with a swastika and the text "I did Nazi this coming" ...to which I call Bullshit. The Nazis made their presence known in an unmistakable manner in Charlottesville. They regularly display their flags in Florida at Disney World, no less. Just two weekends ago, they marched on Music City, Nashville. Jordan Green, investigative reporter for Raw Story, spent months investigating a heinous group of teenagers who recruit even younger (white) kids to indoctrinate them nice and early. For his troubles, he's been stalked, threatened and worse by these same "kids" who terrorize blacks, Jews, LGBTQ+call and other perceived enemies. They call themselves 2119.Jordan Green joins us today to tell us about his investigation, stories and now his fight to protect his family and himself.

Our little podcast baby arrived just after 39 weeks and we made a special little recording just for you.If this is your first time listening, here's a recap: Nine months ago Heather surprised Maureen by announcing her pregnancy on the Milk Minute and asking Maureen to be her (homebirth) midwife. From this Beyond the Boob was born; a spin off from the Milk Minute where we took time to just focus on the pregnancy.Since then its been a wild ride of TMI, prenatal education, and so much more. Today we bring you a very anticipated episode where we document the last prenatal and birth of the baby! While this isn't the full birth story, we kept a mic set up for updates during labor and kept a little captain's log just for you.
