You may agree that the so-called hard problem of consciousness exposes the deep inadequacies of a materialist worldview. But the alternatives - various forms of panpsychism, panentheism and idealism - raise rich and fascinating questions, too. In this episode of The Sheldrake-Vernon Dialogues, Rupert Sheldrake and Mark Vernon explore the leading edge of consciousness research, with Rupert just back from The Science of Consciousness Conference 2025 in Barcelona. They discuss the impact of Indian researchers of consciousness and the proposals of microchip inventor, Federico Faggin. They consider trainings in extra-ocular vision and questions thrown up by the hit podcast series, The Telepathy Tapes. One thing is clear: when the materialist paradigm passes, the science of consciousness will have only just begun.For more on Rupert's work see - https://www.sheldrake.org/For more on Mark's work see - https://www.markvernon.com/

In the third instalment in the series recorded at Colet House in London, Rupert answers questions about the correlation between deep sleep and our experience of death, how consciousness responds to our prayers and communicates with individuals, and why, after awakening, desire diminishes. Also discussed are the causes of the physical responses – of tears and joy – that often occur when entering these gatherings, how compassion fits within the non-dual understanding, and whether there are other ways besides the Direct Path to find the true ‘I'.

Sexier Than A Squirrel: Dog Training That Gets Real Life Results
Send us a textCould skipping your dog's daily walk be the kindest thing for them? In this paradigm-shifting episode, Lauren and Karen explore the controversial concept of "ditching the walk" and its potential to transform your relationship with your dog.Explore our diverse range of courses, including the recently released Bake Off course, for inspiration and enrichment ideas.https://absolutedogs.me/bakeoff When your dog's stress bucket is already overflowing, dragging them into potentially overwhelming environments can create negative experiences for everyone involved. Karen shares how her reactive dog Rupert benefits more from alternative activities than from traditional walks when he's not in the right headspace. "If he's not enjoying it either, what is the point?" she questions, challenging long-held beliefs about canine exercise requirements.The discussion reframes what exercise truly means for dogs. "Fitness is movement, and movement is fitness," Lauren emphasises, introducing numerous alternatives that provide both physical and mental stimulation. From confidence circuits and trick training to scent work and puzzle feeders, these activities often deliver more focused attention and meaningful engagement than a distracted walk around the neighbourhood.Karen reveals how enrichment activities serve as valuable "temperature checks" for her dog's mental state. When Rupert willingly performs tricks like "orbit," she knows he's feeling comfortable. When he can't focus on food or familiar behaviours, it signals he's over-threshold—crucial information for responsive care.This isn't about laziness or neglect—it's about truly tuning into what your dog needs and providing alternatives that better serve their wellbeing. You might discover that your dog prefers these targeted activities over walks, responding with enthusiasm rather than the foot-planting reluctance that signals a walk isn't working for them.Whether you have a reactive dog, an ageing senior, or simply want to enhance your relationship, this episode offers practical ways to redefine exercise and enrichment. Try replacing even a portion of your walks with alternative activities, and you might be surprised by the positive changes you see in both your dog's behaviour and your connection with them.Support the showIf you're loving the podcast, you'll love our NEW Sexier than a Squirrel Dog Training Challenge even more!

fWotD Episode 2993: Manitoba Welcome to featured Wiki of the Day, your daily dose of knowledge from Wikipedia's finest articles.The featured article for Tuesday, 15 July 2025, is Manitoba.Manitoba is a province of Canada at the longitudinal centre of the country. It is Canada's fifth-most populous province, with a population of 1,342,153 as of 2021. Manitoba has a widely varied landscape, from arctic tundra and the Hudson Bay coastline in the north to dense boreal forest, large freshwater lakes, and prairie grassland in the central and southern regions.Indigenous peoples have inhabited what is now Manitoba for thousands of years. In the early 17th century, English and French fur traders began arriving in the area and establishing settlements. The Kingdom of England secured control of the region in 1673 and created a territory named Rupert's Land, which was placed under the administration of the Hudson's Bay Company. Rupert's Land, which included all of present-day Manitoba, grew and evolved from 1673 until 1869 with significant settlements of Indigenous and Métis people in the Red River Colony. Negotiations for the creation of the province of Manitoba commenced in 1869, but deep disagreements over the right to self-determination led to an armed conflict, known as the Red River Rebellion, between the federal government and the people (particularly Métis) of the Red River Colony. The resolution of the conflict and further negotiations led to Manitoba becoming the fifth province to join Canadian Confederation, when the Parliament of Canada passed the Manitoba Act on 15 July 1870.Manitoba's capital and largest city is Winnipeg, the sixth most populous municipality in Canada. Winnipeg is the seat of government, home to the Legislative Assembly of Manitoba and the Provincial Court. Four of the province's five universities, all four of its professional sports teams, and most of its cultural activities (including Festival du Voyageur and Folklorama) are located in Winnipeg. The city has an international airport as well as train and bus stations; a Canadian Forces base, CFB Winnipeg, operates from the airport and is the regional headquarters of the North American Aerospace Defense Command.This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 01:17 UTC on Tuesday, 15 July 2025.For the full current version of the article, see Manitoba on Wikipedia.This podcast uses content from Wikipedia under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.Visit our archives at wikioftheday.com and subscribe to stay updated on new episodes.Follow us on Mastodon at @wikioftheday@masto.ai.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm standard Ivy.

In Residence With is a podcast series that delves into the creative processes of sound artists during their residencies at Sound Art Lab in Struer, Denmark. Each episode offers an intimate glimpse into the artists' explorations, experiments, and reflections as they develop new work. During their residency at Sound Art Lab, Rupert Enticknap explores voice, tuning, and embodied sound through recordings made with neglected pianos in India. These out-of-tune instruments, shaped by climate, time, and colonial histories, become collaborators in Rupert's improvisational process—revealing unexpected resonances and microtonal textures. Working with the voice as both a physical and emotional medium, Rupert's practice investigates how bodies carry sound, memory, and identity. Their work embraces the overlooked—the unstable, the broken, the leftover—as fertile ground for listening and composition.

Partisan SCOTUS is poisoning the country with their Project 2025 agenda. The supreme jerks went after adult videos in measles comeback state of Texas. Also, Alito and his vile company of Siths went after birthright citizenship via an attack on injunctions. The dunces of SCOTUS gave homophobic parents a win involving books with LGBTQ characters. The loads in robes did nothing about redistricting by racists in Louisiana. VIP bigot Nick Fuentes announced Laura Loomer as "the biggest whore in American politics." Governor Newsom has sued FOX News because "f" Rupert and his cronies. Oligarch and Trump-sucker Jeff Bezos was forced to change the venue of his stupid wedding thanks to the righteous protestors of Venice. Speaking of righteous, MSNBC host Lawrence O'Donnell dragged drunkard Sec-Def Pete Hegseth over lies and threats caterwauled at his presser at the Pentagon. The French Canadian newly in charge of the James Bond franchise floated Spider-person Tom Holland as a candidate.
This is the second installment in the series of curated conversations from gatherings with Rupert at Colet House in London. The episode begins with a meditation and includes dialogues on how we can understand deep sleep when the finite mind cannot comprehend it, where our attention should go in meditation, and what happens to awareness after the death of the physical body. Other topics include how the recognition of our true nature takes place outside time and space, how, in awakening, nothing dies apart from the illusory sense of separation and the sorrow and conflict that attends it, and the relationship between the stillness experienced in awareness and the movement we perceive as reality.

On this episode of the California Now Podcast, host Soterios Johnson explores the deep cultural heritage and vibrant traditions of Native American communities across the Golden State—and how travelers can experience them in meaningful ways. To begin, Johnson speaks with Tara Gomez, co-owner of Camins 2 Dreams winery in Lompoc and a proud member of the Santa Ynez Band of Chumash Indians. Gomez shares the story behind her boutique winery, which she runs alongside her wife, and how their wines reflect a deep connection to the land and heritage. “I'm always trying to find that connection between the land and the grapes,” Gomez says. “It's like a part of me.” She goes on to describe the unique terroir of the region, her commitment to sustainability, and how visitors can experience her wines for themselves. Next, Johnson heads north to the Klamath River to talk with Pergish Carlson, a Yurok tribal member and owner of Blue Creek Guide Service. Carlson discusses the significance of the river and how it offers insights into Yurok culture. “It's our lifeline and every meal that we eat— it's usually based on the river,” Carlson says. He also shares how visitors can experience the river firsthand through his guided salmon and steelhead fishing trips, scenic river tours, eco-cultural tours through the redwoods, and even snorkeling excursions. “You get to snorkel in crystal-clear water and you can take underwater photos that will rival any saltwater clear photos by far,” says Carlson. Then, Johnson travels to the Capay Valley with Jim Etters, director of land management at Séka Hills, an enterprise of the Yocha Dehe Wintun Nation. Etters guides listeners through the tribe's award-winning olive oil production. “From the time the olives arrive at the mill, to the time oil comes out of the spigot is usually about 45 minutes to an hour,” Etters says. He gives details about the mill's interactive olive oil tastings and discusses how sustainability and cultural stewardship go hand in hand. Finally, Johnson chats with Sherry Rupert, CEO of the American Indian Alaska Native Tourism Association. Rupert offers a broader view of Indigenous-led travel in California, highlighting meaningful experiences like exploring the Anza National Historic Trail, visiting the Agua Caliente Cultural Museum, and attending tribal Pow Wows. She also shares essential tips on how travelers can respectfully engage with tribes and tribal lands. “I think that when somebody is looking at visiting one of our Indigenous communities or our businesses that it's always good to do some research beforehand, learn a little bit about who you'll be visiting,” says Rupert.

In this talk, Rupert Sheldrake explores panentheism—the idea that the divine is not separate from the world but present throughout it, while also transcending it. With the grip of mechanistic materialism loosening, Rupert invites us to reconsider how we see nature, mind, and spirit. Tracing a broad arc from ancient philosophies and Christian mysticism to AI-generated worldviews, panpsychism, and psychedelics, he reflects on how the sacred presence in nature—-long affirmed by spiritual traditions-—is re-emerging through science, experience, and renewed practices of attention. Recorded at St James Church, Piccadilly, a longstanding hub for open spiritual inquiry and progressive theology in the heart of London.Rupert's SubstackLatest articles, early access to videos, exclusive talks
GatherNYC, a revolutionary concert experience founded in 2018 by cellist Laura Metcalf and guitarist Rupert Boyd, presents concerts every other Sunday at its home venue, Museum of Arts and Design, in New York City's Columbus Circle. Guests at GatherNYC are served exquisite live classical music performed by New York's immensely talented artists, artisanal coffee and pastries, a taste of the spoken word, and a brief celebration of silence. The entire experience lasts one hour and evokes the community and spiritual nourishment of a religious service – but the religion is music, and all are welcome. Spoken word artists perform briefly at the midpoint of each concert, many of whom are winners of The Moth StorySLAM events. “It's an interesting moment of something completely different from the music, and it often connects with the audience,” Metcalf told Strings magazine in a feature about the series last year. “Then we have a two-minute celebration of silence when we turn the lights down, centering ourselves in the center of the city. Then the lights come back on, and the music starts again out of the silence. We find that the listening and the feeling in the room changes after that.” https://www.rupertboyd.com https://www.gathernyc.org https://www.instagram.com/rupertboydguitar https://www.instagram.com/gather_nyc Thanks for joining me on Crushing Classical!

The Spectator's editor Michael Gove and assistant editor Madeline Grant interview Rupert Lowe, MP for Great Yarmouth and notorious Westminster provocateur. Earlier this year, Lowe was suspended from the Reform party amid claims of threats towards the party's then-chairman Zia Yusuf, and a souring relationship with Nigel Farage. Following his political ‘assassination', he now sits as an independent MP and continues to be one of the most energetic parliamentarians in challenging the Westminster orthodoxy.During the discussion – recorded before Zia Yusuf resigned as party chairman on Thursday – Lowe diagnoses the issues that have blighted Reform and its bid to ‘professionalise'; challenges Michael on the then-Tory government's mismanagement of an 80-seat majority and its record on Covid; addresses his interview with Emily Maitlis and her questioning on the grooming gangs scandal; but admits, in spite of it all, that he would still prefer Nigel Farage to be Prime Minister over Keir Starmer.Watch the interview in full on Spectator TV.

In this episode of Excess Returns, Matt Zeigler sits down with Rupert Mitchell—founder of Blind Squirrel Macro—for an insightful, opinionated, and often humorous discussion on global market dynamics, the Mag 7, structural portfolio shifts, and what it takes to be a successful generalist investor. From the “Chart of Truth” to the hidden value in tire stocks, Rupert brings decades of experience and a distinctive lens to markets, risk, and opportunity.
How Reform plans to winJust a year ago, Nigel Farage ended his self-imposed exile from politics and returned to lead Reform. Since then, Reform have won more MPs than the Green Party, two new mayoralties, a parliamentary by-election, and numerous councils. Now the party leads in every poll and, as our deputy political editor James Heale reveals in our cover article, is already planning for government.The party's chair, tech entrepreneur Zia Yusuf, describes the movement as a ‘start-up'; and like a start-up, Reform is scaling up at speed. Among the 676 councillors elected last month, a number are considered more than ready to stand as MPs. James also interviewed Reform's deputy leader, the MP Richard Tice, who said that the Reform movement cannot be thought of within the traditional left-right political spectrum.James joined the podcast to discuss further; you can also hear an extract from his interview with Richard. (1:01)Next: are young people turning to religion?A recent survey by the UK's Bible Society has found that over the past six years, Church attendance has risen by 50 per cent. There are signs that this is being driven by younger people – why are Gen Z turning to religion? A new book by Lamorna Ash, Don't Forget We're Here Forever: A New Generation's Search For Religion, seeks to answer this question and is reviewed in the magazine this week by Rupert Shortt.To unpack this potential Church revival, Rupert – the author of The Eclipse of Christianity and Why It Matters – joined the podcast, alongside Georgia Clarke, director of youth ministry at St Elizabeth of Portugal Roman Catholic Church in London. (21:25)And finally: is experimental fiction truly novel?Philip Hensher writes in the magazine this week about the modern trend of ‘experimental literature'. For Philip, not only do these novels have incredibly rigid rules, but they are far from ‘experimental' as he feels many of their components aren't truly new.To discuss further, Philip – who has been writing his own history of the novel – joined the podcast, alongside Simon Okotie. Simon, author of The Future of the Novel, is also a judge for the Goldsmiths Prize, which awards a novel which ‘breaks the mould or extends the possibilities of the novel form'. (33:11)Plus: extracts from Tanya Gold's article on selling bathwater (17:54) and Madeline Grant's on the decline of period dramas (19:35).Hosted by William Moore and Lara Prendergast.Produced by Patrick Gibbons.

We actually recorded this just before we left for Egypt in March this year; it's been in the hopper for a while! Dan Friday, a Native American craftsman and professional glassmaker, joins us to talk about his fascination with glass artifacts of ancient Egypt. Dan was with us on one of our Egypt tours a few years ago, and shared some of his fascination with us at the time. Along with glassmaking and ancient glass, we also discuss the egyptian vases, the fascinating topic of the Rupert's Drop, connections between ancient mythologies, and much more.

An owner wants to fly his engine after it sat for 7 years. Plus, prop strike at the shop, lean of peak, and break-in trouble. Email podcasts@aopa.org for a chance to be on the show. Join the world's largest aviation community at aopa.org/join Full episode notes below: Rupert is having trouble breaking in his new cylinders. They have five hours and the temperatures are still trying to go above 420 degrees on departure. They've checked fuel flow and baffling. In a twist of irony he is causing his cylinders to run too hot because the break-in is being prolonged because he won't run the engine hard enough. Paul said Comanche's have notoriously have poor baffling, which can also compound the problem. They recommend running it hard for a few hours and not to worry about the temps being around 420. Craig has a Pitts that was damaged on a high-power run-up after his annual. The tail came up and hit the prop. He's wondering if there's something else they should inspect since the case is going to be open. His crank is subject to an AD. The associated service bulletin requires replacement if the case is opened, but the AD does not. He said the insurance has agreed to replace the crankshaft anyway. They said other than close cylinder inspections, it sounds like he's fully covered. Larry was finding that the lean of peak indication on his Dynon would show that he was lean of peak before the cylinders were actually there. He found a short paragraph in the manual that says if he changes the horsepower percent rating, it works fine. He also describes a procedure in the Dynon that basically recreates the GAMI lean test. Mike describes how Savvy does the AI engine modeling. The amount of air or fuel going into the engine will be the limiting power factor. In rich of peak, fuel is abundant, so air is the limiting factor. In lean of peak, fuel is the limiting factor. Dave last ran his engine 7 years ago. He mixed oil and camgard, put it into a pressurized tank, and sprayed it under pressure into every place he could. He's changed desiccant plugs, and had a dehumidifier running as well. If he has pitting he's wondering if it's dangerous to fly. Paul said airplanes don't fall out of the sky because of pitting on the camshaft, and Mike added that they do fall out of the sky after taking off cylinders to look for signs of corrosion. Either the engine will make metal in the filter or it won't, he said. If the filter is clean for the next 100 hours he dodged a bullet. Nothing that could be wrong corrosion wise is a safety of flight item. It's a safety of wallet item. Paul said he would recommend changing the oil soon after running it. If the cylinders don't look corroded the bottom end probably isn't either, Mike said. Paul suggests he crank the engine with one set of plugs inoperative until he gets an oil pressure indication, and then start it normally.
SEASON 3 EPISODE 130: COUNTDOWN WITH KEITH OLBERMANN A-Block (1:45) BREAKING NEWS: A Reagan judge, an Obama judge, and a Trump judge walk into a courtroom and rule Trump's "Liberation Day" tariffs - which not only crashed our economy but that of the entire world's - are not a legal use of the 1977 laws empowering him to take actions in the event of an economic emergency. This is not just any court. It's the United States Court of International Trade. Trump already appealed. Stephen Miller already called it a "judicial coup." The fact that America's corporations simply went along with Trump's crap when it knew - as the court knew - this was executive overreach - is its own problem. The halt on the tariffs will itself probably be halted by the appeals. So the re-shaping of the market will be re-re-shaped by the judges, and re-re-re-shaped by the further litigation. That, of course, is not Trump's problem. His only job is to break stuff. SPECIAL COMMENT: Now it's Governor Gretchen Whitmer has learned the lesson - twice. Never appease Trump, never negotiate with Trump, never cooperate with Trump, never support anything Trump wants, never do anything Trump wants. All that registers with him is: you are easier for him to destroy. She sucked up to him. She worked with him. He tricked her into appearing at his photo-op. She hid her face behind a folder like it was a perp walk. Now, he says he's looking into PARDONING THE TERRORISTS CONVICTED OF TRYING TO KIDNAP HER. There is only one way Gretchen Whitmer is going to SURVIVE Trump, Governor. Apple is going to SURVIVE Trump, Tim Cook. There is only one way Columbia is going to SURVIVE Trump, Claire Shipman. There is only one way the White House Correspondents are going to SURVIVE Trump, Eugene Daniels. If you haven’t figured it out yet, I’ll spell it out. Doing what he wants only tells him you will DO WHAT HE WANTS. So he comes back and gives you ANOTHER list of what he wants. He’s a blackmailer. He’s a crooked businessman. He’s a bully. There is only one way to SURVIVE Trump and that is to DESTROY Trump. In a world of White House Correspondents, be the PENTAGON Correspondents. In a world of Apples, be Wal-Mart. In a world of Columbias, be a Harvard. Put your hands on Trump’s shoulders and knee him in the groin. Stand up to him and you can then own HIM, like the Harvard newspaper op-ed writer who has proposed settling the disputes between her school and Trump by challenging Secretary of "Education" Linda McMahon, the wife of the wrestling slime bag, to a Steel Cage Match. ALSO: TRUMP CONFESSES to operating on Russia's behalf and to protecting Putin. HE LEARNS for the first time of the Wall Street analysts mocking him with the tariff acronym "TACO" ("Trump Always Chickens Out") and he chickens out. Turns out Tom Homan also worked for the top Private Prison company. A woman who contributed a million to Trump gets a pardon for her jailbird son. Anybody remember Rudy Giuliani's alleged boast he could sell you a pardon for two million, to be split between him and Trump. And a past president's grandson has died. The president he was the grandson of, left office in... 1845. B-Block (33:00) THE WORST PERSONS IN THE WORLD: Kristi Noem and the camel she rode in on. Jesse Watters and Rep. Tim Burchett try to make fun of men using straws not remembering there's a photo of Trump at Yankee Stadium using a straw. And boy did THIS sound familiar: Rupert Murdoch just buried a New York Post reporter who followed all the rules and instructions Murdoch's minions had laid out for him, because somebody didn't like the story... Just like in 2001 Rupert personally fired ME for doing exactly the same thing (C-Block 43:00 THINGS I PROMISED NOT TO TELL). The punchline is the reporter's name is Josh Kosman and last September he was the guy at The Post who called and told me they were about to update the RFK Jr/Olivia Nuzzi sexting story by claiming I had lived with Olivia. So I busted his scoop and put the story out immediately. Now we're in the Rupert Isn't A Journalist Club. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Time to talk about Christians in novels:+ Secular novelists love to make their villains hypocritical Christians.+ Christian novelists are very honest about their Christian characters' flaws as well.+ So don't be offended when you bump into a fake Christian in a story.+ Nate walks through the flaws of his Christian protagonists (Niffy, Rupert, etc.).This episode dissects Christians and their character flaws on the page... and in real life.
To mark his first hundred days in office, President Trump signed three executive orders related to immigration.
