Cece, who grew up near Washington, DC, describes her family's listening (ZZ Top, Southern rock, blues/R&B, show tunes) and how she gravitated instead to Prince, Michael Jackson, politically driven rap, and alternative/punk discovered through WHFS, MTV's 120 Minutes, and films like Suburbia. She studied political science at Virginia Tech, attended law school at Temple, passed the New Jersey bar, but left legal work due to culture fit.

Nathan Maxwell returns after a lost recording to share updated perspectives on recovery and marriage. He recounts early exposure to pornography in fourth grade, his parents' divorce, his half-brother's suicide, and how shame and suppressed grief fueled compulsive porn use and a growing need for validation from various sexual partners. Nathan describes how religious culture, lack of sex education, and scrupulosity shaped a belief that God hated him, contributing to misery and suicidal ideation. Recovery began when a church member introduced him to Unashamed, Unafraid, 12-step meetings, and boot camp. Nathan now lives with a changed view of God as a loving Father, and ongoing growth through setbacks and sobriety since November 2024.Make a donation and become an Outsider!Follow us on social media!

InPresence 0265: New Thinking Allowed and The Epstein Files Jeffrey Mishlove reflects on the appearance of New Thinking Allowed and some of its guests in the Epstein files, clarifying the nature of indirect associations and his own lack of contact with Jeffrey Epstein.

The True Crime of Suspense: Decoding the Mind of a Murderer in "This Will Kill You"Are you fascinated by the psychology behind crime and murder? Ever wonder how a seemingly ordinary man devises an intricate plan for murder, only to fall into his own trap? In this deep dive into the story "This Will Kill You," we unravel how a man's determination, cunning, and ultimate arrogance lead him to his downfall — and how understanding his mindset can make you more alert to hidden threats.This narrative isn't just entertainment; it's a lesson in psychological insight and strategic thinking, revealing the dangers of overconfidence, unchecked bias, and the minutiae that can topple even the most meticulous plans. Whether you're a true crime enthusiast, aspiring criminal profiler, or someone interested in the intricacies of human nature, this story offers valuable lessons concealed within its dramatic fabric.How a Small Grudge Can Bloom Into Murder: The Power of MotiveThe story begins with Joe, an ordinary factory worker caught in a web spun by workplace conflicts and personal vendettas. His rivalry with Charlie Harris starts as petty teasing but quickly escalates into a carefully crafted plot for revenge. Joe's fixation on Charlie's relationship with Harriet reveals much about human psychology: motives, no matter how petty, can ignite deadly plans when left unchecked.The Roots of MaliceJoe's narrative shows how small grievances—disdain for Charlie's boss attitude, jealousy over Harriet, and feeling slighted—can fester into a desire for revenge. His obsession with avenging these perceived injuries demonstrates that motives often stem from emotional triggers that can distort rational judgment. Recognizing these triggers in real life can help prevent conflicts from turning violent.Applying the LessonUnderstanding that motives grow from unresolved feelings reminds us to address personal conflicts early. If you notice someone harboring resentment or fixating on minor slights, approach with empathy or caution. Recognizing these signs can be crucial in de-escalating potential violence.The Art of Deception: Crafting the Perfect Alibi and Cover-UpJoe meticulously plans his act, including forging an airtight alibi that he believes will confound law enforcement. His understanding of the importance of physical evidence—planting a handkerchief, smashing the clock at a specific time—exposes how criminals manipulate attributes like fingerprints and timing to evade suspicion.The Role of Attention to DetailJoe's story underscores that in crime, success often hinges on small details. He uses gloves to avoid leaving fingerprints, plants evidence to implicate Charlie, and scripts his actions with precision. His confidence in these attributes stems from a lack of awareness of the resources law enforcement can employ, and ultimately, his overconfidence blinds him.Lessons for EveryoneFor those in security or law enforcement, the key takeaway is vigilance: overconfidence can lead to overlooked clues. For anyone else, it's a reminder to be cautious—those who seem careless may be hiding something, and the devil often lies in details.The Power of Psychological Manipulation: How Joe Reads and Uses Human NatureJoe's narrative illustrates the importance of understanding human psychology. His manipulation of Harriet—recording her voices, planting evidence—relies on exploiting trust, innocence, and predictable human reactions.The Voice of Confidence and ArroganceThroughout, Joe exhibits a mix of cockiness and self-assurance, convinced that he's outsmarted everyone. This hubris blinds him to the possibility of exposure, leading to his ultimate downfall when Harriet's mother plays the recording. Recognizing such arrogance as a red flag can be vital in avoiding being manipulated or manipulated by others.Applying Psychological AwarenessIn everyday life, awareness of how people use trust, fear, or arrogance can help you navigate complex social situation

Send me a Text Message. I'm getting personal in this episode of Pattern Shift — recorded from my brand new praktijk in Rotterdam. I trace why I bootstrapped from 300 euros, refused investors, never built a conventional team, and kept rebuilding the brand. I name Pathological Demand Avoidance directly and connect it to my lifelong distrust of the ready-made — in business, fashion, and a painting I found on the side of the road last week. From sour puss to happy kitty: on curiosity as the antidote to cynicism, and three questions to find out where you're running on borrowed structure. You know me as a guide, mentor and teacher, but I've also set off on a new adventure, coaching. Coaching gets a bad rep sometimes, but when it's done right, it can be really transformational. As part of my coaching education, I'll soon need to do real coaching sessions. And it could be a really great opportunity for you to experience it at no or low cost.

Kian Lafford was adopted from Omsk, Russia in September 2007. He later received the name Kian after being adopted into an Irish family. Growing up in a small town in Ireland with a large Eastern European community made it easier for Kian to be open about his adoption and his background growing up. In January 2024, his adoptive mother passed away from a brain tumour. In reflecting on that loss, Kian began to see an unexpected connection between grief and adoption. Since then, Kian decided to try learn more through DNA testing. While it did not provide all the answers he was hoping for, he was able to learn more about his genetic background and learn more about where he comes from. Kian joins us for our latest podcast episode of I'm Adopted.

Cult Classic Status from Bold Choices (00:39) The film's decision to kill most of the original cast early was a major risk that shaped its lasting appeal. This choice was tied to marketing a new toy line, forcing the removal of older characters to introduce new ones. The high character death count was unusual for 1980s cartoons but resonated as a memorable and impactful narrative choice. Sam Alicea emphasized the movie's unique "music video" style and violent tone as key to its charm. Soundtrack as a Defining Feature (00:29) The film features a heavy metal soundtrack with songs like "The Touch" and Weird Al Yankovic's contribution, which remain popular. Sam highlighted the soundtrack's role in making the movie enjoyable even when used as background during chores. The soundtrack's placement sometimes felt forced but added to the overall energetic vibe of the film. The music helped cement the movie's nostalgic value and cultural impact beyond just the story. Animation Quality and Style (00:32) The animation is a mix of highly detailed hand-drawn sequences and inconsistent lower-budget scenes. Key moments like Unicron's introduction and the transformation of Galvatron show impressive craftsmanship. Some sequences, such as Autobot City's transformation, defy logic but maintain visual excitement. The movie's aesthetic reflects typical 1980s animation with a blend of impressive and sloppy elements. Character and Design Highlights (00:14, 00:33) The introduction of new characters like Hot Rod and Cup served marketing goals but received mixed reception; some preferred legacy characters instead. The Dinobots, especially Grimlock, were fan favorites noted for their personality and screen presence. Decepticons like Galvatron and Starscream stood out, with Starscream's treacherous antics praised. New designs leaned toward smoother, rounded shapes compared to the original blockier forms, signaling the toy line shift. Strategic Marketing and Toy Line Impact The movie functioned primarily as a vehicle to launch a new toy line, influencing story and character decisions deeply (00:12, 00:16). Toy Line Rollout Drives Plot and Character Fate (00:12) Killing off legacy characters cleared the stage for a new roster designed to sell fresh toys. Characters like Cup were introduced primarily to support new toy sales rather than story needs, frustrating some fans. Hot Rod's arc was designed to establish a fresh hero while maintaining toyetic appeal. The shift to new designs reflected a strategic move to modernize the brand and stimulate consumer interest. Balancing Narrative and Marketing Needs (00:16) The movie's story and character choices sometimes sacrificed cohesion for toy marketing goals. Legacy characters like Perceptor and the Dinobots were retained to maintain continuity and fan connection. Some characters, like Ultra Magnus, were less favored due to lack of narrative effectiveness but existed for toy continuity. The film's pacing and tone reflected the tension between storytelling and commercial objectives. Voice Cast and Star Power Usage (00:24) Leonard Nimoy's casting as Galvatron was a notable stunt but was not sustained beyond the movie. Orson Welles' last role as Unicron added gravitas despite limited credit and technical challenges with his audio. Voice changes and stunt casting decisions were influenced by budget and potential marketing impact. The cast choices reflect a blend of marketing intent and creative ambition. Narrative and Character Development Critiques The movie's storytelling assumes audience familiarity and presents mixed character arcs, impacting accessibility and engagement (00:38, 00:59). High Barrier for New Viewers (00:38) Nick Wolfe identified the movie as not beginner-friendly, expecting viewers to know extensive Transformers lore. The lack of exposition around key characters and events made it confusing for newcomers. Proposed solutions included adding narrated backstory and flashbacks to ease new viewers into the plot. This gap likely contributed to the movie's commercial failure despite strong fan following. Character Arcs and Roles (00:16, 00:59) Hot Rod's character is a flawed hero whose leadership rise felt unearned, creating mixed audience reception. Cup's role was criticized for being a new character inserted mainly for toy reasons rather than story depth. The pitch suggested replacing Cup with a legacy character like Ironhide to strengthen narrative bonds. Optimus Prime's death remains a pivotal emotional moment but complicates continuity and future storytelling. Supporting Characters and Dynamics (01:06, 01:09) Grimlock's interactions with Hot Rod added needed conflict and character development. Supporting characters like RC and Springer were noted as effective background players without overwhelming the story. Starscream's consistent treachery was highlighted as a strong character trait enhancing the villain dynamic. There was consensus that some Decepticon characters disappeared too quickly, weakening the villain ensemble. Proposed Improvements and Alternate Pitch Nick Wolfe's detailed pitch aimed to make the movie more accessible, coherent, and emotionally resonant without losing core elements (00:39, 00:42). Introductory Narration and Flashbacks (00:42) Suggested opening with Optimus Prime narrating key backstory events to orient new viewers. Including flashbacks to important episodes would provide context for the war, characters, and stakes. This would bridge the gap between fans and newcomers, enhancing story clarity. It also sets up the importance of Energon and Autobot City more clearly. Expanded Character Development and Role Reassignments (00:43, 00:51) Proposed making Cup more like Ironhide or Tanker (an original draft character) to improve narrative depth. Hot Rod would be shown as a capable fighter before his failures, building audience empathy. Grimlock and Hot Rod's relationship would be deepened with conflict and eventual teamwork. Optimus Prime would be critically wounded but kept alive on life support, preserving his legacy. Streamlined Plot and Group Dynamics (00:50) Consolidated the Junkion and Quintesson arcs into a single planet scenario for simplicity. Divided Autobots into clear factions with distinct challenges to create focused narrative threads. Added heroic sacrifices and teamwork moments to raise stakes and emotional impact. The pitch ended with Optimus evolving into Ultra Magnus, aligning with toy line needs while preserving character continuity. Maintaining Cult Appeal While Improving Accessibility (01:03) The pitch carefully retained key emotional beats like Optimus Prime's near-death and Hot Rod's rise. It balanced new viewer guidance with fan service to preserve the movie's iconic moments. Suggested minor tweaks to Unicron's scale and lore to reduce confusion without major changes. The approach aimed to prevent later franchise regrets about character handling seen in season three. Fan and Host Perspectives on Movie's Legacy The hosts and guest expressed strong affection for the movie's nostalgic and cultural value despite its flaws (00:59, 01:00). Embracing the Movie's 1980s Roots (01:00) Sam Alicea stressed the film's authentic 80s vibe, embracing both its high-quality animation and its rough edges. The movie was seen as a time capsule of 80s animation and storytelling norms, including its willingness to embrace trauma. The soundtrack's energy and the movie's unapologetic style were key to its enduring love. There was reluctance to change the movie too much, preserving its unique charm. Appreciation of Character Moments and Humor (01:09) Starscream was praised for his consistent jerkiness, providing comic relief and memorable villainy. The Decepticons' internal conflicts were contrasted with the Autobots' camaraderie, enriching character dynamics. The hosts lamented the disappearance of classic Decepticons when newer ones appeared. The blend of action, humor, and character quirks contributed to the movie's lasting appeal. Community and Ongoing Engagement (01:12, 01:16) Nick Wolfe and hosts highlighted fan communities like the Certain Point of View Media Discord for ongoing discussions. References to other Transformers properties like Beast Wars show layered fan engagement across generations. The show's Patreon and related projects encourage deeper fan interaction and content creation. The continued interest in the movie reflects its significance beyond initial box office performance. Distribution and Community Outreach The podcast promotes broader engagement through Patreon, additional shows, and social media presence (01:16). Patreon Support and Exclusive Content (01:16) The show thanks executive producer-level patrons by name, recognizing their financial support. Patreon offers early episode clips, essays on geek culture, and D&D topics to supporters. Essays like "Never Go Full Ranger" provide added value and deepen listener engagement. This support sustains the podcast's production and community activities. New Shows and Guest Hosting Opportunities (01:17) The launch of "Trade School," a comic book guest-hosted show, expands the network's content diversity. The format encourages fans to share positive takes on trade paperbacks in brief episodes. This initiative fosters community involvement and fresh perspectives. The network invites submissions, broadening participation from listeners. Social Media and Contact Channels (01:13, 01:16) Hosts provide social media handles and highlight the Discord server as a key interaction hub. Nick Wolfe shares his Reddit and Discord activity, emphasizing low-pressure involvement. The Discord serves as a central place for fan discussion and host engagement. Listeners are encouraged to tag hosts for responses and participate in the fan community. Upcoming Episode and Network Branding (01:18) The next podcast episode will cover "Highlander 2: The Quickening," maintaining a focus on cult and flawed films. The show's production credits and branding reinforce a professional and creative identity. The network's website and YouTube presence offer additional access points. This continuity supports sustained audience growth and brand recognition.
I am absolutely thrilled to announce a powerhouse collaboration of storytelling and stagecraft! The incredibly talented Atlanta Playwright Jacob York stopped by The Ash Said It Show for an exclusive, deep-dive conversation about his highly anticipated world premiere of INITIATIVE. This isn't just a play; it's a groundbreaking theatrical event opening at the end of this month at the prestigious Aurora Theatre in Lawrenceville, GA. Running from March 26 through April 19, 2026, this production is already the talk of the Atlanta arts community, and I cannot wait for you to hear the heart and soul behind this script. Directed by the visionary Katie Erin Chambers, Initiative is a brilliant exploration of friendship, legacy, and the power of imagination. The story follows a tight-knit group of friends who gather around a gaming table for one final, epic campaign—one that beautifully transcends the boundaries of fantasy and reality. As the character Dave battles an aggressive illness, he turns to the legendary world of Dungeons & Dragons to manufacture the milestones he fears he'll never reach. With every roll of the d20, his companions craft a quest that encompasses a lifetime of memories, from the profound responsibilities of fatherhood to the simple wonder of seeing the ocean for the first time. This play is the ultimate "crit hit" for theater lovers and tabletop gamers alike. It delivers the perfect combination of unapologetic nerdiness, deep-seated pathos, and genuine joy. Audiences can expect a rollercoaster of emotions—complete with thrilling sword fights, menacing orcs, and those heavy moments of existential dread that make us human. It is a testament to how we use play and community to navigate the hardest parts of our lives. Whether you are a seasoned Paladin or have never touched a character sheet, York's writing ensures that the human element is front and center. I'm diving into the creative process with Jacob to discuss how he balanced the mechanics of RPG gaming with such a high-stakes emotional narrative. This is the must-see world premiere of the season, and you'll want to hear every detail right here before the curtain rises at the Aurora Theatre.

The West Virginia Fur Auction is an annual fur, root, skull & antler consignment sale in Glenville, West Virginia. After a reading about the first fur-trade explorations over the Alleghenies into West Virginia in 1671-74, we head into the auction with in-the-field reporting on the modern fur, root, meat, gland and oddities markets, interviewing the likes of trappers, fur hangers, graders, buyers and members of the West Virginia Trappers Association. Many grew up trapping and we hear how meaningful it is to continue the very trade that founded America. From protecting endangered species to supporting natural materials over synthetic textiles, the trapper is discussed as an environmentalist. Throughout are charming moments like a young lady demoing how to skin a noxious skunk or what to do with a raccoon's pecker bone. As the buyers stand around the racks of bobcat pelts, piles of beavers, boxes of skunks and deer horns, we find out what they're looking for whether they specialize in garments, felt, costumes or oddities. As the auctioneer rattles off the bidding, you've got a front row seat to the fascinating world of American fur.

In this episode of MiCannaCast, we sit down with Jake Greba— founder of Midnight Roots, longtime legacy cultivator, edible pioneer, and music producer Bass Owl — for a deep, wide-ranging conversation about cannabis culture, genetics, medicine, creativity, and the journey from underground roots to the modern legal market.Jake shares powerful personal stories about growing up in a cannabis family, using the plant to help loved ones through serious medical conditions, navigating the pre-legal era, and building a respected brand rooted in authenticity rather than hype.We also dive into strain selection philosophy, terpene appreciation, why THC percentage doesn't equal quality, the dilution of genetics in today's market, and how cannabis connects to memory, ritual, and community.Beyond cannabis, the conversation explores Jake's parallel life in music — touring, producing bass music, and the creative mindset that links art and cultivation.If you care about legacy cannabis culture, real genetics, meaningful consumption, or the intersection of creativity and plant medicine, this episode delivers one of the deepest conversations we've had on the show.
My Heart Smiles: Diana Oman on Energy Healing, Lake Superior Roots, and the Power of Forgiveness | Conversations with a Chiropractor Episode Description In this thoughtful and quietly powerful episode of Conversations with a Chiropractor, Dr. Stephanie Wautier talks with Diana Oman, a longtime healer, teacher, and author whose life has moved through more than one unexpected chapter. Diana begins at Little Girls Point, near the Wisconsin border on the far western edge of Michigan's UP, where she grew up in a family that ran cabins, rented handmade wooden boats, sold agates, and fished Lake Superior. That childhood, shaped by water, weather, hard work, and isolation, gave her a deep relationship with nature and a sense that life held more mystery than most people were willing to name. From there, the story widens. Diana shares the family lore around her grandfather, a "blood stopper" from Nordic tradition, and how that thread eventually reappeared in her own life through energy work, spiritual healing, and years of study with teachers across several traditions. What started as a professional detour into patient advocacy slowly turned into a full-body immersion in alternative healing, forgiveness work, and the idea that unresolved emotional pain has a way of surfacing in the body. One of the most moving parts of the conversation centers on ho'oponopono, the Hawaiian forgiveness practice Diana learned during several trips to Hawaii. She and Stephanie talk about how humility, apology, and emotional clearing are not "extras" in healing, they are often the missing piece. And from there, the episode naturally turns to Diana's book, My Heart Smiles, an uplifting ABC-style affirmation book for all ages that grew out of a bedtime practice inspired by Abraham Hicks and went on to find readers far beyond the UP. The book was published in 2014, is 64 pages long, and was illustrated by Colleen O'Hara. What makes this conversation land is that it never feels abstract for long. Diana's healing philosophy is rooted in real life: forgiveness, reflection, emotional honesty, daily practices, and remembering that even ten quiet minutes can begin to change the state of your mind, body, and spirit.

But Dmitry's story goes far beyond 'Groove Is in the Heart', and this conversation goes all the way back to the beginning.Dmitry grew up in Soviet Ukraine as a third-generation musician. His grandmother — unable to afford a piano during the disruptions of the Russian Revolution, Civil War and World War Two — cut piano keys from paper so she could practise by hand. That love of music carried through the family, and Dmitry began lessons at five, was attending a conservatory music school by seven, and was already writing his own compositions in the style of Gershwin and Scott Joplin by eight.Western music was tightly controlled. Records could only be obtained on the black market — for around $50 each — and were copied onto reel-to-reel before being traded on. A track from Jesus Christ Superstar introduced him to something funky he couldn't yet name, and the search for that sound would shape the rest of his life.At 14, Dmitry and his family left the Soviet Union — the first in their town to do so, and treated as traitors for it. After periods in Austria and Italy, where he discovered punk (the Pistols, the Damned, X-Ray Spex, Iggy Pop), the family arrived in New York in 1978. On Halloween. In a Black neighbourhood in Brooklyn. Having never seen Black people before.From a 50-cent bin in a record shop, he picked up 'The Clones of Dr. Funkenstein' by Parliament because the cover looked insane. That was the moment. 'There it is,' he thought. 'That's the sound I've been looking for.' He's been a funkateer ever since.New York in the late 70s and early 80s was extraordinary — punk, disco, hip hop, and house all converging in the same sweaty rooms. Dmitry became an elevator operator at Danceteria, practising guitar in the lift between floors while Sisters of Mercy and the Sugar Hill Gang did soundchecks below. He ran into the pre-fame Beastie Boys regularly, worked at the Pyramid Club (run by drag queens, and a real education in showmanship), and played for Kool Herc and Grandmaster Flash at block parties in Harlem and the Bronx.Dee-Lite formed as a direct attempt to bridge the gap between house and funk. They built a following through monthly shows drawing up to 1,500 people, which caught the attention of a Billboard writer and eventually sparked a label bidding war. They signed to Elektra — choosing them because their A&R, Nancy Jeffries, had signed Iggy Pop and Bjork, and that felt like the right kind of open-mindedness.Elektra didn't believe 'Groove Is in the Heart' had any traction. They let Dee-Lite do the video anyway, and Dmitry remembers the precise moment he knew it had crossed over: standing in a grocery store queue when it came on the radio and the cashier started dancing at her till. 'That's my jam,' she said. 'That's my jam.'Q-Tip turned up to the studio, listened for 15 minutes, jotted notes, and nailed it in two takes. Bootsy Collins casually mentioned he had 'some friends' who might be able to play horns — those friends were Fred Wesley and Maceo Parker, who arrived as near-strangers to each other after five years apart and immediately played like they'd never stopped.Their first proper gig with a full live band was in front of 300,000 people at Rock in Rio. The second album was recorded expensively in a big studio; Dmitry considers it their weakest. The third, Dewdrops in the Garden, went back to basics and home recording, and he's proud of how well it still sounds.The band broke up when Dmitry and Kier's relationship ended, and he eventually made his way to Berlin — partly drawn by its thriving club culture, partly pushed out of New York by Giuliani's crackdown on clubs. He played Tresor, won a Best Techno DJ award at Ibiza despite not really being a techno DJ, worked with Julie Cruz, remixed Chaka Khan and Ziggy Marley, and kept making music.Then during the pandemic, a friend sent him a vocalist called Jessie Evans. He sent her some dub tracks that had been sitting on his computer for years. She recorded them one by one, sending back a finished song every couple of days from Brazil — while caring for two young children. Before they had ever met on video, they had an album's worth of material. That project became Nauti Siren. She moved to Germany, they got married, and they now have around five albums' worth of music ready to release. The first, 'Rising', is out now.This is a remarkable conversation with someone who has lived inside the history of popular music for fifty years — and who still has plenty more to say.Find DJ Super Dmitry:Instagram: @superdjdmitryNauti Siren 'Rising' — out on Bandcamp and all streaming platformsOnce A DJThe podcast that looks at what brings us together and what sets us apart.

Tuesday's episode of The A.M. Update with Aaron McIntire tracks the fluid status of the Iran conflict, where President Trump touts over 5,000 targets struck, massive declines in Iranian missile and drone capabilities, and a potential short-term operation while holding back on devastating infrastructure hits. Conflicting signals emerge on the war's timeline, alongside reports of a new Supreme Leader named amid questions about his status and a regime using a cardboard cutout in ceremonies. Tensions rise with missile incidents near Turkey drawing sharp warnings from Erdogan, potential activation of Iranian sleeper cells abroad, and a dramatic single-day oil price drop from $116 to under $90 per barrel due to safer Strait of Hormuz transit and G7 reserve discussions. Domestic news covers a foiled IED plot by self-radicalized teens in New York linked to terrorism charges, renewed scrutiny on James Talarico with more unearthed comments, an NBC poll showing low favorability for AI and various political figures, a DOJ-Ticketmaster antitrust deal with divestitures and fines, and Qatar's foreign minister publicly expressing deep betrayal over Iran's attacks on Gulf neighbors, prompting analysis of the small nation's long-term triangulation strategy for survival.

Send a textA quiet decision to start a resource for local patients turned into a milestone worth pausing for: 250 episodes dedicated to the craft and heart of hearing healthcare. We look back at where it began—growing up in a family clinic, falling in love with music and audio engineering, and studying communication sciences—and how those threads wove into a platform that champions people, not just products.We share the moment that still anchors our work: a patient who had stopped going out to dinner because conversation was too hard, and the smile that returned after a careful fitting and follow-up. That story embodies our stance on what moves outcomes: best practices like video otoscopy, tympanometry, OAEs, speech-in-noise testing, and real ear measurement, paired with counseling that meets patients where they are. Along the way, what started as consumer education expanded as clinicians, researchers, and innovators joined in, turning interviews into a living record of how standards evolve and lives change.We spotlight three pillars that guide us now. First, supporting providers by amplifying the clinical routines that sharpen results and reduce trial-and-error. Second, educating consumers so they walk into appointments ready to ask for objective measures and personalized fitting. Third, building community through a thought leader coalition—voices like Dr. Gyl Kasewurm, Dr. Jasen Ruiz, and Madison Levine, BC-HIS—who bring fresh perspective to verification, counseling, and the link between hearing and brain health. We also explore where the field is headed: AI that enhances, not replaces, clinicians; remote care that extends reach; and OTC devices that expand access when paired with clear guidance.If you care about hearing technology, patient outcomes, and the human connection that ties them together, you're in the right place.

We reach levels of philology we didn't think possible.This is a new format for the show. Much deeper and much more conversational. Expect longer episodes going forward.

Stefanie Stantcheva is an economist at Harvard and the head of the Social Economics Lab, where her team has done extraordinary work investigating how people form their opinions about economic and political topics. That work was the subject of an earlier New Bazaar episode. In this episode, Stefanie chats with Cardiff about the findings in her paper (with co-authors Sahil Chinoy, Nathan Nunn, and Sandra Sequeira), “Zero-Sum Thinking and the Roots of US Political Differences,” which was just published in the American Economic Review. From the paper's abstract: “We find that a more zero-sum mindset is strongly associated with more support for government redistribution, race- and gender-based affirmative action, and more restrictive immigration policies. Zero-sum thinking can be traced back to the experiences of both the individual and their ancestors, encompassing factors such as the degree of intergenerational upward mobility they experienced, whether they immigrated to the United States or lived in a location with more immigrants, and whether they were enslaved or lived in a location with more enslavement.” Stefanie and Cardiff also discuss:Rising anger in American societyThe subtle ways that the two major political parties are similar and different when it comes to zero-sum thinkingThe economic geography of zero-sum thoughtThe finding that surprised her the mostThe generational gap in zero-sum thinking between young and oldThe policy implications of her researchFinally, Stefanie previews her upcoming work on zero-sum thinking and concerns about AI.

In this conversation, Liv sits down with Dakota Camacho to explore the importance of returning to our cultural roots and why reclaiming ancestral wisdom matters more than ever. Through the lens of CHamoru culture, they reflect on the wisdom of our elders, the values that shape our identity, and how our generation can reconnect to culture and carry these traditions forward.EPISODE TAKEAWAYSEmbracing our heritage helps us understand ourselves and our community more deeplyTraditional practices and language carry the wisdom of our ancestors and keep culture aliveCultural knowledge guiding activism strengthens community and supports collective healingArt, poetry, and music give us ways to share our stories and find healingA culturally connected future grows through community care and sustainable livingReconnecting with our roots can be a powerful journey that honors ancestral wisdomCONNECT WITH DAKOTADakota Camacho is a Matao/CHamoru artist born and raised in Coast Salish Territory who creates indigenizing processes through altar-making, movement, film, music, and prayer.

https://rootsandall.co.uk/podcast/episode‑193‑growing‑under‑protection/In this episode, I'm joined by Beth Gregg, founder of Claverton Cloches, who's on a mission to revive the beauty and practicality of Victorian cloche gardening. We talk about cloches of all shapes, sizes, and materials, how they can extend the growing season and protect crops, and explore the history, design, and sustainability behind them — and why sometimes the smallest structures can make the biggest difference in the garden. Benny's Insect of the Week: Daffodil Dung Fly About Beth Gregg is a passionate advocate of cloche gardening and the founder of Claverton Cloches. Her love affair with the romance of the English garden, particularly the ingenuity of historic kitchen gardens, led her to explore the power of the humble cloche as both a practical and beautiful growing tool. In her own garden, Beth uses cloches extensively to extend the seasons and create microclimates. She ripens chillies and tender crops outdoors in lieu of a greenhouse, overwinters flowers for early cutting in late spring, and protects delicate young plants from frost, wind and hungry garden visitors. For her, cloches are not ornamental extras, but transformative tools - simple structures that can dramatically improve yield, resilience and timing in the garden. Inspired by antique Victorian designs, she went on to found Claverton Cloches in 2020, reviving traditional cast-iron and glass forms for modern gardeners who value both beauty and productivity. Her work celebrates the quiet practicality of historic garden craft, and the idea that functional objects in the garden can, and should, be deeply beautiful.

From practical crop‑cover strategies to prolonging your growing year, this episode is full of hands‑on insight for gardeners looking to get more from their space. Episode 193: Growing Under Protection Horticultural expert Guy Deakins joins Sarah to explore what "protected growing" really means — how to create successful micro‑climates in the garden, the benefits and pitfalls of sheltered environments, and how protection can boost plant health and productivity. It's a thoughtful complement to our discussion about cloches and ways of supporting plants through design and environment.
The Windermere Coaching Minute | Hosted by Michael FanningEPISODE OVERVIEWGeographic farming isn't about blasting postcards and hoping the phone rings. In this episode, Michael Fanning breaks down what it really means to own a neighborhood neighbor first, agent second and why consistency is the only competitive advantage that compounds over time. If you're tired of starting over every quarter, this one's for you.CASE STUDY: STEVE LAEVASTUSteve Laevastu is one of the best examples of geographic farming done right.

Dinesh D'Souza- The Historical Case for Regime Change. REGIME CHANGE, TRUMP STYLE Dinesh lays out the historical case for regime change, arguing that America's greatest triumphs—from the Revolution to the Cold War—came when oppressive regimes were decisively removed and replaced with better systems. He applies that framework to Iran, contending that ending the mullahs' rule would deal a historic blow to radical Islam while advancing American interests without repeating the mistakes of Iraq and Afghanistan.
