Despite President Trump’s role in brokering a ceasefire between Israel and Hamas, many mainstream outlets and progressive voices remain hesitant to offer praise. TIME magazine wrote a nice story on the president but the cover picture isn't flattering. Late night comics acknowledge his accomplishment, while making a back handed joke. Critics cite bias, while supporters argue Trump’s diplomacy deserves recognition.

In this episode of Rethink Real Estate, host Ben Brady sits down with Brenna Van Hoogenstyn, Co-Owner and Realtor at Harcourts Blue Water, to dive deep into the real story behind building a social media strategy in real estate that actually converts.Alongside her business partner and mom, Cathy Clark, Brenna has turned Harcourts Blue Water into one of the most engaging, consistent, and authentic voices in Newport Beach real estate. But it wasn't always that way. From the early “ego-driven” posts to now producing value-first content that earns trust before the first phone call, Brenna takes us through the full content journey—wins, struggles, and everything in between.Expect candid insights into staying consistent when business gets busy, why the algorithm rewards authenticity, how they balance entertaining and educational content, and why sometimes the best-performing videos are the ones outside your comfort zone. Brenna also shares how they're leveraging their powerful network of attorneys, fiduciaries, and financial planners to deliver content that reaches their ideal $2M–$3M client avatar—without chasing vanity metrics.This isn't another fluffy “just post more” conversation.

What keeps us from stepping into the life God has already set before us? In Numbers 13, Israel stood on the edge of promise, but their reluctance and distorted vision held them back. We face the same choice today—cling to the familiarity of the past or trust God with a new future. Join us this Sunday as we explore how to break patterns of hesitation and step into the freedom and fullness Jesus offers.

Lubna Zaidi joins The Winston Marshall Show for a fearless conversation on Islam in Britain, extremism, and the cultural crisis tearing the UK apart.From her rise as a YouTuber after The Apprentice to becoming a lightning rod for controversy, Lubna explains why she began calling out her own community for failing to integrate, excusing extremism, and protecting grooming gangs. She describes the backlash—death threats, intimidation, and even people turning up at her home—simply for speaking uncomfortable truths.They discuss the silence of so-called moderates, the dominance of extremist voices online, and the dangerous culture of denial around honour-based violence and child exploitation. Lubna warns that Britain is importing “hillbillies” from Pakistan without vetting, fuelling parallel societies that reject British values and put the country's future at risk.All this—grooming gangs, intimidation, failed integration, extremist apologists, and one woman's fight to tell the truth about what's really happening inside Britain's Pakistani Muslim community…Subscribe to Lubna's channel HERE: https://www.youtube.com/@Lubna.Candid-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------To see more exclusive content and interviews consider subscribing to my substack here: https://www.winstonmarshall.co.uk/-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------FOLLOW ME ON SOCIAL MEDIA:Substack: https://www.winstonmarshall.co.uk/X: https://twitter.com/mrwinmarshallInsta: https://www.instagram.com/winstonmarshallLinktree: https://linktr.ee/winstonmarshall----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Chapter 00:00 Introduction 01:21 Lubna Zaidi's Background and Journey to YouTube 04:00 Speaking Out: Breaking Points and Community Reactions 09:15 Cultural Clashes and Personal Experiences in the UK 19:24 Community Psychology and Reluctance to Address Issues 22:41 Pakistani Migration and Social Dynamics in the UK 27:18 Identity, Integration, and Celebrating Independence 31:18 Online Influencers and Community Representation 34:06 Religion, British Values, and Integration Challenges 40:19 India-Pakistan Tensions in the UK 47:10 Civil Unrest, Protests, and Fears of Division 51:36 Luton: Changes, Extremism, and Personal Encounters 56:13 Tommy Robinson: Perceptions and Changing Views 58:51 Patriotism, Self-Reflection, and the Israel-Palestine Conflict 01:02:09 Final Thoughts Hosted on Acast.

Robert Spencer discusses his upcoming book, "Holy Hell: Islam's Abuse of Women and Infidels Who Enable It," focusing on gender-based violence in Islamic contexts and Western complicity. He notes a slight increase in discussions about Islam in America, but highlights ongoing censorship and backlash. Spencer contrasts his rational activism with more confrontational styles and expresses skepticism about politicians addressing Islamic ideology. He examines misconceptions around Islamic financing and grooming gangs in Europe, linking these issues to Islamic teachings. He concludes by asserting that Islamic scripture, not geopolitical factors, drives aggression against the West, advocating for more open discourse on Islam's societal implications.

It's claimed a reluctance to acquire derelict properties in rural areas is significantly contributing to Clare's ranking as the county with the ninth highest dereliction rate. It comes as the latest Geodirectory report shows both Clare's vacancy and dereliction levels to be 5%, ranking above the national average for both those measures. That's in spite of a 31% increase to the county's housing stock over the course of the last year, with 684 new addresses registered in Clare, while construction was underway on 664 properties during June. GeoDirectory CEO Dara Keogh has been telling Clare FM's Darragh O'Grady that although the county fares poorly on some of the metrics, there is potential for improvement in the near future.

In this episode, Evan Ratliff, journalist and creator of the podcast Shell Game, shares the wild and personal story behind his experiment in AI voice cloning. What began as curiosity turned into a six-month dive into building an AI version of himself—one that could answer phone calls, conduct interviews, and even fool friends and family. From scamming the scammers to testing AI therapy, Evan walks us through what it's like to put a synthetic version of yourself into the world and watch how people respond.The conversation explores the uneasy collision of identity, automation, and ethics. Evan talks about the emotional reactions people had when they realized they weren't actually talking to him, the disturbing effectiveness of AI in fraud, and the strange intimacy of hearing your own voice say things you didn't write. He also reflects on what it means to resist optimization—not because tech can't help, but because some parts of life aren't meant to be outsourced.This episode is a human story wrapped inside a technological one—about trust, loneliness, and how we navigate a world where even our voices aren't entirely our own.Key takeaways: AI voice agents challenge more than trust—they challenge identity.Evan's experiment revealed just how disorienting it is when people hear your voice and think it's you—only to realize it's not. The emotional impact was real: friends felt tricked, disconnected, and in some cases, deeply lonely.Scammers are already using AI—and they're getting better at it.Far from being hypothetical, AI-powered scams are already widespread and industrialized. Voice cloning isn't just a curiosity—it's a weapon, and we're all potential targets. A family safe word might be your best defense.Not everything should be optimized—and maybe that's the point.Evan pushes back on the idea that life should be frictionless. In the pursuit of efficiency, we risk removing the small, inconvenient interactions that actually make life meaningful—like small talk, shared confusion, and human error.This moment feels like early social media—and we should be paying attention.Henrik and Jeremy reflect on the eerie parallels between today's AI boom and the rise of the social web. Back then, few anticipated the long-term impact on mental health and connection. With AI, we may be walking into similar territory—unless we ask harder questions now.LinkedIn: Evan Ratliff | LinkedInWebsite: Evan Ratliff – JournalistShell Game Podcast: Shell Game | Evan Ratliff00:00 Intro: Thoughts on AI Deception00:40 Meet Evan Ratliff: Technology, Crime, and Identity01:13 The Shell Game Podcast: Exploring AI Voice Cloning03:50 Challenges and Improvements in AI Voice Technology04:57 Inspiration Behind the Voice Cloning Experiment11:05 Practical Applications and Ethical Considerations17:31 AI in Scamming: Risks and Realities25:04 Protecting Yourself from AI Scams27:49 Reflecting on Technological Change and Human Adaptation29:59 The Reluctance to Embrace New Technology30:36 The Dangers of Social Media31:59 AI in Therapy and Personal Experiences33:39 Creating an AI Agent of Yourself38:09 The Challenges of Small Talk with AI38:55 Personal Tech Stack and AI Usage42:59 Balancing Efficiency and Meaningfulness45:32 The Future of AI and Human Interaction52:18 Concluding Thoughts and Reflections
In today's episode of the Quiet Warrior Podcast, we have the pleasure of speaking with Susan Callender, a certified success coach, the host of the Social Skills Mastery Podcast, and the founder of Social Confidence Pro. Susan shares her journey from being a shy, reserved child to becoming a successful professional and coach who now helps socially reluctant high achievers build confidence and improve their social skills. This episode is studded with valuable insights for introverts and quiet achievers who struggle with stepping into the spotlight and speaking up, whether at work or in social situations.Key Takeaways:The Roots of Shyness: Susan reflects on her childhood, describing herself as "lifelong shy," and discusses how social reluctance impacted her professional aspirations, particularly in sales and public speaking. The Fear of Rejection: She dives deep into how fear of social judgment and rejection can hold introverts back, even when they are highly skilled and competent in their jobs. The Turning Point: Susan shares a pivotal moment when a publicist's blunt words made her realize that shyness was holding her back from fully embracing her success. Despite her achievements, she was avoiding the spotlight. Overcoming Social Fear: With the help of coaching, Susan reprogrammed her thoughts to move from overthinking and self-doubt to taking small, actionable steps to step up and own her brilliance. Neuroplasticity and Rewiring Your Brain: Susan emphasizes how you can rewire your brain to become more socially confident, sharing how changing your thoughts and perceptions can lead to professional success and personal transformation. Overcoming Overthinking: Learn how overthinking can be detrimental to progress, and how learning to trust yourself and make quick, confident decisions can open doors in both your personal and professional life. Reflective Questions for Listeners:When was the last time you held yourself back in a professional setting due to fear of rejection or self-doubt?

These compelling segments dissect Donald Trump's lukewarm response when asked whether he would declassify the Epstein files, sparking questions about what—and whom—he might be protecting. The host and callers explore the tangled connections between Trump, Epstein, Ghislaine Maxwell, and a shadowy network of elites whose influence extends from Mar-a-Lago to the Wuhan lab. Discussions range from the mainstream media's selective outrage and the Democrats' suspicious silence, to theories that Epstein's blackmail operation was part of a broader scheme encompassing COVID origins, Hunter Biden's business dealings, and geopolitical leverage. As listeners call in to share perspectives—from “trust the plan” optimism to skepticism about cover-ups—the conversation underscores the explosive potential of releasing Epstein's secrets and why so many powerful figures, on both sides of the aisle, might want them buried forever.
In this episode, we sit down with forensic psychologist and cold case criminologist David Hayes to explore how the principles of forensic psychology can transform our everyday conversations. We discover the power of thorough audience analysis, the importance of understanding motivation and context, and the critical role of empathy and adaptability when communicating across different populations. From working with incarcerated individuals to supporting victim families and consulting for juries, we uncover practical strategies to enhance our conversations, avoid common communication pitfalls, and foster deeper connections.Timestamps: (00:00) Introducing David Hayes(03:44) Forensic Psychology: Crime and Communication(06:51) Contextual Communication Strategies(11:23) Effective Audience Analysis in Prisons(14:19) Cold Case Psychological Autopsy Method(17:57) Truth-Seeking Over Emotion(19:40) Miscommunication and Attribution Errors(24:39) Behavioral Decisions in Trauma Response(32:06) Reluctance to Embrace Lateral Thinking(35:57) The Universality of Human Experience(38:05) Group Conformity and Belonging Needs(40:17) Identification Theory Illustrated(43:43) Fringe Group Recruitment Tactics(47:03) Dangerous Dependency and Disenfranchisement(52:54) Understanding and Acceptance in Relationships(55:08) Love Through Isolation's GripLinks and Resources:Home | Hayes Criminology - https://www.hayescriminology.com/David Hayes, PhD, MFA | LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/david-hayes-phd-mfa-a7b33b5/Sponsor Links:InQuasive: http://www.inquasive.com/Humintell: https://www.humintell.com/Enter Code INQUASIVE25 for 25% discount on your online training purchase.International Association of Interviewers: https://www.certifiedinterviewer.com/Podcast Production Services by https://everyword.media
In this gripping discussion, the host and guest dissect the controversial plea deal offered to Idaho murder suspect Bryan Kohberger, who avoided a potential death sentence by agreeing to four life terms without parole. The families of the victims expressed fury at prosecutors for sparing Kohberger's life, while legal experts remain divided—some citing the unpredictability of juries, even in seemingly open-and-shut cases. The conversation also revisits the notorious case of South Carolina serial killer Todd Kohlhepp, whose life sentences sparked similar outrage after he confessed to seven murders and likely committed more. The hosts argue that such brutal crimes demand the death penalty, criticizing prosecutors and politicians who choose leniency. The discussion closes with warnings about how shifting political power could undermine public safety and embolden killers to exploit a weakened justice system.

Is there another experience with the Holy Spirit after we are born again? What does the Bible have to say? God gives gifts that seem foolish, only to confound those who think themselves wise. The Holy Spirit is the change we all need. Every character in the Bible who encountered the Holy Spirit was forever changed. Their boldness increased as their fear decreased. Are you asking for more of the Holy Ghost?
