What does it take to bring the American Revolution to life? How can an event that took place 250 years ago be conveyed to us through modern-day film? Ken Burns and his team worked to answer these questions in their new, epic six-part documentary, Ken Burns' The American Revolution. Their work promises to deepen, complicate, and transform our understanding of the Revolution over 12 hours of film. But how did Burns and his team make this film? What stories did they choose to tell? And what challenges did they face in telling those stories? Sarah Botstein and David Schmidt, the two co-directors of Ken Burns' The American Revolution, join us for a behind-the-scenes tour of their film and how they made it.

I'm joined by Dave Itzkoff on this week's episode to discuss Paddy Chayefsky's classic film, Network. Dave literally wrote the book on Network in his history of the film, Mad As Hell, and had lots to say about the making of the movie, the minds behind it, and its ongoing relevance to our daily lives. I know what you're thinking, I can practically hear your thoughts: A movie about corporations taking over news divisions and fearing problems from the FCC holding up mergers because they don't like coverage? What does that have to do with anything happening today? But I think we can squeeze out a similarity or two to our current moment.

In this episode, Tina dives deep into the psychology and strategy behind selling high-ticket courses and masterminds. She explains why selling high-ticket can actually be easier and more rewarding than selling low-ticket offers, and uncovers the essentials needed to communicate, create, and deliver transformational high-end programs. Key Topics Covered Why High-Ticket Is Easier to Sell Tina reveals that selling a $15,000 program often takes the same effort as selling at much lower price points—so why not aim higher? High-ticket programs typically foster greater transformation and deeper relationships. Conversion Psychology for High-Ticket Offers Selling high-ticket is not about slick marketing—it's about true connection and deep understanding. Buyers of premium offers are looking for certainty, transformation, relevance, trust, and community. Sales Process for High-End Programs Instead of mass marketing, Tina emphasizes personal connections and outreach. She shares how she fills her masterminds (Impact Mastermind, Empress Circle) through curated invitations and powerful relationships—no need for public sales pages or social media blasts. What High-Ticket Buyers Really Want Certainty and confidence that the offer delivers results Transformation, not just information Relevance to their situation and goals Trust in the mentor or facilitator Real connection and belonging in a curated community Positioning and Messaging High-ticket offers require clarity, confidence, and authority. Focus messaging on attracting the perfect-fit client—you're not trying to be everything to everyone. Conversion Triggers & Emotional Drivers Status, certainty, safety (including confidentiality), belonging, and urgency are all powerful triggers for high-ticket buyers. Foster a safe environment and screen participants carefully. Discovery Calls & Webinars The goal of calls is to find the right fit, not just "make the sale." Tina shares a personal story of a mastermind misfit and stresses the importance of proper screening for energy and alignment. Mindset of the Premium Seller Detach from needing the sale, focus on leadership and conviction, and price based on value and transformation, not just deliverables or hours. Selling high-ticket offers isn't about harder selling—it's about leading with confidence, connection, and conviction. When you focus on transformation over transaction, your offers—and results—elevate naturally.

Justin Timberlake BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.Justin Timberlake is once again in the spotlight and not just for his music. As the European leg of his Forget Tomorrow World Tour ramps up, with a scheduled performance at Manchester's Co-op Live arena on November 8, fans are flocking for remaining tickets. The show boasts a setlist loaded with nearly thirty hits, including Cry Me a River, SexyBack, and Mirrors, and the venue is throwing an official Noughties afterparty to keep the nostalgia alive. Timberlake's ability to electrify the stage remains unrivaled, cementing his place as one of pop's enduring titans after more than two decades leading NSYNC and his own multiplatinum solo career.Away from the stage, Timberlake is making business moves. The acclaimed Twelve Thirty Club restaurant, launched with restaurateur Sam Fox in Nashville, is expanding to Austin in early 2026, landing a prime spot in the city's bustling downtown, as confirmed by the Austin Business Journal and MySA. His ventures have always blurred the lines between music, film, and hospitality, signaling Timberlake's ongoing relevance not just as an entertainer but as a brand.But behind the scenes, Timberlake is reportedly focused on healing and introspection. According to AOL, he is taking a temporary break from certain industry commitments to prioritize his personal health. This follows a period of career turbulence in Hollywood, with sources telling Star and Reality Tea that Timberlake is “desperate to revive” his acting trajectory after cooling off since Palmer. Rather than taking humbler roles, Timberlake is said to be “thinking big,” reaching out to some major former collaborators like David Fincher and Mila Kunis as he aims to recapture blockbuster success. Insiders warn though, the road back won't be easy—audiences will demand compelling performances, not just nostalgia.Socially, Timberlake made quiet headlines on Globe for expressing continued support and sympathy for Britney Spears, as her struggles and family drama remain tabloid fodder. While not a direct public appearance, this show of solidarity is seen by some as a meaningful gesture given their shared pop history.Meanwhile, Timberlake's legacy and influence are celebrated everywhere—from upcoming candlelight tribute concerts in Tampa honoring his catalog, to viral TikTok and YouTube shorts resurfacing his classics like SexyBack and Holy Grail, to a new audio biography episode streaming this week. For all the speculation on where Timberlake goes from here, his position in the pop culture pantheon seems secure. Whether rebounding in film, branching into businesses, or returning to the stage, Timberlake remains a headline—one seemingly determined to remind everyone he's still somebody worth watching.Get the best deals https://amzn.to/3ODvOtaThis content was created in partnership and with the help of Artificial Intelligence AI

In this episode, Bryce Zabel and Chrissy Newton dive into Mirage Men, a provocative and unsettling exploration of how UFO mythology has been manipulated and, at times, manufactured by intelligence agencies. The discussion centers on the book's central thesis — that much of what we think we know about UFOs may have been deliberately seeded by government operatives to cover up classified projects or sow disinformation. Names like Richard Doty and Paul Bennewitz are examined as case studies in psychological operations, raising questions about just how much of the UFO lore is organic versus orchestrated. Weaponized Myth or Truth in Disguise? The episode unpacks the troubling implications for researchers and experiencers alike. The book suggests that belief in non-human intelligence may have been stoked as part of long-running counterintelligence campaigns, leaving a trail of confusion and paranoia in their wake. The conversation also explores how this manipulation might have impacted the broader UFO community — creating divisions, muddying waters, and casting long shadows over genuine phenomena. The hosts balance skepticism with open-mindedness, probing whether Mirage Men reveals deception, deeper truths, or perhaps both. The Relevance for Today's Disclosure Landscape The episode closes by drawing sharp parallels between the events in Mirage Men and today's disclosure efforts. With recent whistleblower testimony and government acknowledgments, listeners are asked to consider: are we witnessing a long-delayed truth, or just the latest evolution of the same game of informational misdirection? The book, and this conversation, ultimately leave listeners with a haunting but essential question — who benefits from what we believe, and why? This episode is a must-listen for anyone trying to untangle the web of fact, fiction, and psychological warfare at the heart of the UFO narrative.
Silvana, Eric, and Tegan watch Stargate SG-1 Season 6 Episode 9 "Allegiance." The Tok'ra and the Jaffa finally team up in this episode, is it everything the podcast hosts hoped it would be? Listen to find out. This episode has another man shooting a gun in a circle...but it has a decidedly different feel that in last week's episode "The Other Guys." Jacob talks to Jack about having a Tok'ra symbiote, and Sam is noteably absent for this conversation. Teal'c unfortunately is acting like his Chulak alter ego attacking a Tok'ra in this episode, can we stop with that? The Za'tarc detector is back! But is it useful? Does it change anything?

SummaryIn this conversation, Dr. Jeffrey D. Skinner discusses the decline of the Attractional Church model and emphasizes the importance of relationships in fostering lasting faith. He argues that the church's focus should shift from performance and spectacle to authentic presence and meaningful connections. The discussion highlights the need for churches to prioritize formation over mere attendance, advocating for a return to the core mission of love and community. Skinner provides practical takeaways for church leaders to navigate this transition effectively.TakeawaysThe Attractional Church model is fading.Relationships are the strongest predictor of lasting faith.Positive experiences with the Christian community shape identity.Methods built on image erode authenticity and trust.People want to be known by the church, not impressed.The church's impact is based on how it leads, not what it produces.Relevance fades fast; relationship endures.Transformation happens in shared life, not in crowds.The church is a people we become, not a place we attend.The church that endures is the most authentic.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/echoes-through-eternity-with-dr-jeffery-skinner--5523198/support.Echoes Through Eternity Guiding church planters and pastors to plant seeds of prayer, holiness, and courage that outlast a lifetime. contact drjefferydskinner@protonmail.com

After Donald Trump was first elected in 2016, Hannah Arendt's The Origins of Totalitarianism became a surprise bestseller. Arendt, who died in 1975, became a sort of prophet for the liberal "Resistance" based on her insights into lying and politics and the origins of fascism. Today, as President Trump acts with increasing authoritarianism and corruption, Arendt is still frequently quoted, but she's not the star she once was on the American left. Why? Yale historian and law professor Samuel Moyn discusses the uses and abuses of Hannah Arendt, one of the twentieth century's towering philosophers.

Let's know what you liked and learnt! The 10 Permissions: From Stuck to Self-Directed in a Fluid WorldIn this thought-provoking conversation, author and change-maker Jillian Reilly joins Swami to explore her powerful framework — The 10 Permissions — a new rulebook for navigating today's fluid, unpredictable world. Together, we unpack what it means to upgrade our Adult Operating System, move from I am to I can, and replace fixed plans with curiosity-driven action. Jillian reveals how giving ourselves permission — to experiment, think small, go astray, and feel our way — transforms anxiety about change into agency and adaptability. From reimagining education and parenting to rebuilding culture at work, this episode is an invitation to stop waiting for approval and start designing a life that's responsive, alive, and truly self-directed.Order the Book: https://tenpermissions.com/Key Insights1️⃣ Permission Is the Bridge Between Intent and ActionReal change begins when we stop waiting for validation and give ourselves the authority to move.2️⃣ Update Your Adult Operating SystemBring unconscious “rules for living” into awareness — and rewrite them for today's fast-shifting realities.3️⃣ Experiment and Think SmallProgress now comes from micro-moves and low-stakes trials, not grand five-year plans.4️⃣ Feel Your Way ForwardWhole-body intelligence — instinct, emotion, and reflection — is becoming as critical as data and logic.5️⃣ Redefine Success as RelevanceIn a fluid, AI-driven world, sustained success depends on curiosity, continual reinvention, and embodied learning.———Timestamps00:00:00 Intro — Welcome and Context00:04:12 “We're Living Through the Great Unraveling.”00:08:10 “We're All Running on an Old Operating System.”00:14:11 “Shift from ‘I Am' to ‘I Can.'”00:18:57 “Permission Is the Bridge Between Intent and Action.”00:22:21 “You Can't Think Your Way to Growth.”00:30:25 “Take Small Bets.

Middle schoolers are a different set of students, and it is important to consider how best to engage them in their learning. National Director, Naneka Brathwaite, joins this episode to unpack five key strategies to engage middle school students: make progress visible, fuel autonomy with real choice, keep content relevant to age, build discourse for critical thinking, and pace efficiently so every minute counts.Naneka explains how simple data talks, student-friendly progress trackers, and clear goals help learners name where they are and choose what to try next. From there, we dig into incorporating student choice by providing parallel paths to the same standard to support students deciding how they learn best. Relevance and discourse go hand in hand. Hear practical ways to pair developmentally appropriate texts with age-appropriate topics, reducing shame while raising curiosity. Naneka shares routines that move teachers from a "sage on the stage" to a facilitator of thinking: structured turn and talk, error analysis, and respectful disagreement that push ideas forward. In math and literacy alike, students learn to explain, question, and refine.Finally, we talk about pacing. Older learners can revisit foundations quickly, but not at the expense of understanding. Learn how to plan concrete-to-abstract progressions, use quick checks to steer instruction, and avoid whole-class reteaching by leveraging small groups and just-in-time supports. The payoff is fewer disruptions, more buy-in, and a room that feels both calm and energized.
In this episode of The Better Leadership Team Show, I sit down with Dr. Andrew Wittman, former Marine, federal agent, and author of Inner Armor: Perpetual Resilience. Andrew shares actionable strategies for building emotional strength, rewiring habits, and creating resilient leadership teams.We cover how to “Think Like C.R.A.P.” (Clarity, Relevance, Accuracy, Precision), craft a powerful identity statement, and transform obstacles into growth opportunities. Whether you're a CEO, team leader, or individual seeking resilience, this conversation is packed with insights you can put into practice today.https://getwarriortough.com/podcast/ Thanks for listening!

Notes Luke 18:9-14 Joel 2:23-32 2 Timothy 4:6-8, 16-18 Takeaways The Pharisee's self-righteousness contrasts with the humility of the tax collector. Humility is essential in discussions of justice and righteousness. Justice and righteousness must be balanced with compassion and understanding. The parable challenges listeners to reflect on their own self-perception. The context of Jesus' parable is crucial for understanding its message. Joel's message of hope is relevant in times of despair. The Holy Spirit's outpouring is a transformative force for all. Paul's reflections in 2 Timothy highlight the importance of perseverance in faith. Legacy is built on the actions we take in our lives. The ongoing impact of our lives continues even after we are gone. Summary In this episode of the Pulpit Fiction Podcast, hosts Eric Fistler and Rob McCoy explore the themes of humility, justice, and the transformative power of faith through the lens of biblical texts. They discuss the parable of the Pharisee and the tax collector from Luke 18, emphasizing the importance of humility in faith and the dangers of self-righteousness. The conversation then shifts to the prophetic message of Joel, highlighting the hope and renewal that comes from God's spirit. Finally, they reflect on Paul's farewell in 2 Timothy, considering the legacy of faith and the ongoing impact of our lives. Throughout the discussion, the hosts encourage listeners to engage with these themes in their own lives and communities.

What makes a podcast truly powerful — and worth your time? In this episode of Leveraging Thought Leadership, Peter Winick sits down with Ryan Estes, co-founder of Wildcast and Kitcaster, to unpack what separates a great podcast guest — and host — from the rest. Ryan's work connects CEOs, founders, and thought leaders to the right audiences through strategic podcast placement. His mission: to turn conversations into meaningful distribution. Ryan explains why founder-led marketing outperforms brand marketing — by as much as 80%. He reveals how showing up authentically on podcasts isn't just about exposure; it's about building credibility, creating demand, and sparking conversations that open doors to your ideal clients. Together, Peter and Ryan explore what makes a podcast worth appearing on. It's not about chasing the biggest show or the biggest name — it's about relevance. For many business leaders, the right niche podcast might be the only place where all their potential buyers are listening. Ryan walks through how to identify the right shows for your goals, the importance of energy and chemistry in a podcast conversation, and how to develop the skills — from delivery to lighting — that make you a guest worth remembering. They also discuss the “guest hygiene” problem: why so many smart leaders fail to prepare properly, neglect to promote their episodes, or treat podcasts like disposable media hits. Ryan argues that building a personal distribution network — your own voice, audience, and presence — is an investment that carries over to every project, every company, and every new venture. If you've been thinking about launching a podcast, or becoming a sought-after guest, this episode is your roadmap to doing it right — and doing it with purpose. Three Key Takeaways: • Founder-led marketing drives results. When leaders speak directly to audiences through podcasts, their message builds far more trust and engagement than traditional brand marketing. • Relevance beats reach. The best podcasts for business growth aren't always the biggest — they're the ones where your ideal buyers actually listen and engage. • Consistency builds credibility. Thought leaders who prepare well, promote their episodes, and keep showing up authentically develop a personal brand that outlasts any single company or project. If this conversation inspired you to think differently about using your voice and platform, take the next step by listening to our episode with Srinivas Rao. He dives deep into how creativity, curiosity, and personal expression fuel powerful thought leadership. Discover how to build an audience that connects with your ideas — not just your brand.

Send us a textEpisode #147: Too many finance teams are stuck formatting data while the decisions fly by. We tackle a smarter way to work: build capacity by aligning effort to strategy, automating the grind, and developing the skills that turn reports into results. Stephen McLean walks through a practical approach for FP&A and accounting leaders who want to shield their teams from noise, prioritize what matters, and partner with IT to unlock automation without a costly tech overhaul. The focus is simple—reduce friction, raise insight, and spend more time advising than assembling.We start with clarity: how to map every role and deliverable to a strategic objective, choose the leading indicators that actually drive action, and say no to work that doesn't move the needle. From there, we dig into process and systems—standardizing inputs, automating routine pulls and reconciliations, and using collaborative workspaces so knowledge isn't trapped in inboxes. Along the way, we challenge the culture of daily fire drills and offer a guardrail: route ad-hoc requests through a priority gate so the team's best hours aren't lost to random tasks.Finally, we talk people. Coaching time management, building stronger analysis and storytelling skills, and running short, focused development sprints can transform morale and output. A tighter partnership with IT helps you ship quick wins—scheduled queries, clean templates, and self-serve dashboards—that free analysts to interpret trends and shape choices. Expect clear takeaways you can apply this week: an audit of calendars and tasks, a skills plan that sticks, and an automation backlog that delivers measurable time back.Episode outline:Clarify priorities and align with strategic goals,Leverage tools and automation, andBuild capacity through development.Please connect with me on:1.

Jen Psaki shows House Speaker Mike Johnson's pattern of avoiding having to address any issues that might cast Donald Trump in a poor light by pretending they are "not in his lane," not relevant to his position in Congress and therefore he can't speak on them. But when asked about Bad Bunny performing at the Super Bowl, Johnson wasted no time leaving his lane to speak his mind.New reporting from the Wall Street Journal says that Donald Trump's social media post demanding that Attorney General Pam Bondi prosecute his political enemies was meant to be a private direct message. Former federal prosecutor Preet Bharara talks with Jen Psaki about the DOJ's case against former FBI Director James Comey and how Trump's sloppy posting will not only be used against him, but could turn up more improper communications in discovery.Jen Psaki exposes the facts that undermine a fake surveillance scandal that Republicans like Lindsey Graham, Josh Hawley, and Chuck Grassley are pretending to be outraged about so they can push a re-writing of the history of January 6 and what the subsequent investigation turned up.

Strengthening the Soul of Your Leadership with Ruth Haley Barton
In this episode, Ruth and returning guest Jay Kim explore the intersection of technology and community within the church. They discuss the nuances of digital and in-person church experiences, the impact of the pandemic on church attendance and engagement, and the idea that “digital informs and analog transforms.” As always, they end by offering questions to ponder this week as it pertains to technology and community. Questions to ponder this week: What is the one barrier that keeps you from getting up and going and being with a church community? And then when you identify that barrier, is that barrier really worthwhile? In our community, for our community, what is appropriate for digitized delivery, or technological delivery and what must be done in person to be effective? We're back for Season 27, titled “Taming our Technologies: [Spiritual] Practices for a Digital Age.” This season we have a special co-host, pastor, author, and podcast host Jay Y. Kim! Jay will be joining Ruth all season long to explore the impact technology is having on our lives with God, our attention span, our parenting, our community, and our creativity. Jay and Ruth will wrestle with their own questions and wonderings about finding balance in using technology in good and helpful ways while also acknowledging its challenges. This season aims to be gracefully thought-provoking, practically helpful, and ultimately hopeful and encouraging. Jay Kim serves as lead pastor at West Gate Church in the Silicon Valley of California. He's the author of several books including Analog Christian, Analog Church, and Listen, Listen, Speak. Jay also hosts the Digital Examen podcast and much of his work focuses on the intersection of the digital age and spiritual formation. Mentioned in the episode: Analog Church by Jay Y.
