We are often told that resisting technological development is impossible and ‘progress' is inevitable, but history says otherwise. Thomas Dekeyser joins Paris Marx to discuss how understanding radical resistances of the past can help us rethink our modern relationship with technology and reshape our vision of the future.Thomas Dekeyser is a lecturer in human geography at the University of Southampton, author of Techno-Negative: A Long History of Refusing the Machine, and co-creator of the documentary Machines in Flames.Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

The real problem with AI isn't AI. It's the level of consciousness we bring to what we build, and what we collectively refuse to examine.We are at the edge of the second great technological revolution. The internet gave us global reach. Artificial intelligence is now accelerating everything we are, including everything we have refused to look at.This essay moves through what that acceleration reveals: the architecture of extraction, from slavery to cheap labor to data; the illusion of freedom we've accepted in place of the real thing; why the consciousness gap between human wisdom and technological intelligence is the most urgent conversation we are not having; and what a genuinely different future could look like, rooted in Solarpunk principles, decentralized power, and the kind of consciousness that can actually hold it.This is not an argument against technology. It is an argument against human unconsciousness. Every tool we have ever built reflects the level of awareness its creators brought to it. The question has never been what we can build. It has always been who we are when we build it — and who owns it.Topics covered in this video:The illusion of progress and why AI is accelerating our collective shadowWhy "cheap labor" is a moral anesthetic, and what we're actually describing when we use that phraseThe architecture of extraction: from land, to labor, to dataAI, power concentration, and the next phase of invisible slaverySolarpunk, decentralization, and the consciousness-led alternativeAncestral healing, shadow work, and the personal responsibility embedded in all of itIf this conversation is pointing at something real for you, The Axis Point is my private mentorship for leaders, creatives, and executives ready to build the internal structure that the external world demands of them.Applications: https://silvanaisaza.com/mentorship/#AIandHumanity #ArtificialIntelligenceEthics #Solarpunk #ConsciousnessGap #EthicalAI

The AI revolution is here, and with it a fear that soon it will replace many of us in the workplace. The Australian government is grappling with how to deal with the multi-layered disruption but so far reform has been slow as it weighs up regulation against the claims of investment opportunities an AI boom presents. Could that change on Wednesday when the prime minister delivers a landmark speech addressing the government's approach to the technology? The chief political correspondent, Dan Jervis-Bardy, speaks to Reged Ahmad about the tightrope the PM needs to walk between embracing new technology and protecting workers

Today, we're confronting a lie the world wants you to swallow: that comfort is the goal, and hardship means God has left the building. Not here. Not on this podcast. Here, we expose the deception. Here, we tell the truth: God uses suffering to forge warriors for the Kingdom.The world worships comfort. Our flesh runs from discomfort. Our prayers beg for escape. But Scripture is clear—“I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.” –John 16:33Pain has a purpose. Trials are not the enemy. Suffering is not the end. Christ is refining you. Christ is present in the fire.So when your valley turns dark—will you run, or will you let God use it? What's He trying to produce in you?Episode Highlights08:05 - If comfort becomes the goal of your life, suffering will always feel like failure. But if becoming more like Jesus becomes the goal of your life, well, suffering then begins to look very different. It becomes less like punishment, and more like preparation.24:06 - What if the difficulty you're facing isn't proof that God has abandoned you? What if it's proof that he's actively shaping you? The world sees suffering as an interruption. The Christian should see it as an invitation—an invitation to trust, an invitation to surrender, an invitation to discover that Christ is sufficient.35:56 - "That's why one of the boldest prayers you will ever pray is this: Lord, if this trial will make me more like your son, please don't waste a single moment of it. That's not a prayer of resignation. Instead, that's a prayer of surrender. It's declaring that God's purposes are greater than your preferences.Connect with Paul M. NeubergerWebsite

Join us for the first in a sermon series exploring the spiritual significance of the ways (called "ends") through which we as a church have committed to living our mission.

In a nation where 62% of Americans see courage in their communities but only 30% see it in their elected officials, we're facing a crisis of leadership. The United States is healing. On this episode, host Stu Turley sits down with Rye Barcott, U.S. Marine Corps veteran, New York Times bestselling author, and co-founder of With Honor—an organization dedicated to recruiting and supporting veterans to run for office across party lines. Together, they explore what true courage really means, why service is the path to purpose, and how we can rebuild trust in American leadership. From the remarkable overlap of their fathers' service in Vietnam to the alarming decline of veteran representation in Congress—from 70% to just 20%—this conversation challenges us to rethink what it takes to be a leader in America. Whether you're interested in politics, military service, or simply finding meaning through service to others, this episode offers both inspiration and a call to action: elect people who aren't afraid to lose, because they'll stand by their convictions.1. Courage as a Core ValueRye Barcott, author of "Courage Can Save Us," distinguishes between bravery (instinctive reaction to danger) and courage (the deliberate choice to serve the common good). He emphasizes that courage is essential for both individual well-being and national strength, particularly in addressing youth mental health crises through service.2. Military Service & Personal InspirationThe conversation explores how military service shapes character. Rye shares his father's Vietnam experience as a reconnaissance officer and how that inspired his own Marine Corps service. Stu reveals a remarkable connection—both their fathers were reconnaissance officers in Vietnam during the same period, with Stu's father coordinating aerial reconnaissance missions.3. Veterans in Politics & LeadershipA significant focus is the decline of veteran representation in Congress—from 70% historically to just 20% today. Rye's organization, With Honor, works to recruit, train, and support veterans running for office across party lines. The podcast highlights that 752 veterans are running this cycle, the highest number ever.4. Bipartisan Unity & ServiceThe discussion emphasizes that service creates common ground across political divides. Rye features 5 Democrats and 5 Republicans in his book, and highlights the Congressional Veterans Caucus (38 House members, ~12 Senate members) that transcends party lines to focus on national security and veterans issues.5. Trust in LeadershipAccording to Gallup polling data cited, veterans and nurses are the two most trusted groups across all party lines. However, only 30% of Americans see courage in elected officials, compared to 62% who see it in their communities—highlighting a leadership crisis.6. Political Dysfunction & CorruptionThe hosts discuss concerns about political corruption, particularly in California's energy policies, which they argue have caused deindustrialization and affordability crises. They emphasize the need for leaders willing to lose re-election for their principles.7. Youth Engagement & PurposeService is presented as a path to purpose for young Americans, particularly addressing loneliness and mental health challenges. The book targets younger Americans seeking meaning through military or civilian service.8. American Soft Power & Global PerspectiveThe podcast celebrates America's cultural influence globally, referencing the World Cup bringing international visitors who discover American values firsthand. They discuss the importance of maintaining American pride and the world's continued admiration for American culture, music, and values.9. Civility & Respectful DialogueA key theme is the need to engage with those who hold different political views respectfully, rather than viewing them as enemies. The hosts criticize algorithm-driven outrage and advocate for genuine conversation across ideological lines.10. State & Local InvolvementThe discussion encourages Americans to get involved locally and support candidates who prioritize country over party affiliation, with particular emphasis on the growing number of independents (45% of Americans) rejecting the traditional two-party system.Book: Courage Can Save US (Bloomsbury, June 9, 2026) — NYT and USA Today bestsellerAll author proceeds go to With HonorSurvey: With Honor–Gallup, 3,199 U.S. adults, May 12-22, 2026Audience can share their own Courage Moment at couragecansaveus.comWith Honor website: withhonor.orgAvailable wherever books are soldAmazon Link: https://a.co/d/0aOOJeuGCheck out the Energy News Beat SubStack https://theenergynewsbeat.substack.com/A shout-out to Steve Reese and the Reese Energy Consulting group for sponsoring the Podcast https://reeseenergyconsulting.com/.Data2 if you have any business systems, can you trust A?

Brett Hurt got the Lamborghini. He got the exits, the valuations, everything a tech titan is supposed to want. And then he felt nothing. That emptiness became the most important moment of his career — and the catalyst for his new book, Love Conquers Fear: Humanity, AI, and the Age of Abundance for All. Brett is the co-founder of data.world (acquired by ServiceNow), Bazaarvoice (unicorn IPO), and Coremetrics (acquired by IBM). He has invested in 151 startups, backed 52 VC funds including SpaceX, and was named Austin's Best CEO. In this conversation with host Park Howell, Brett makes the case that the most urgent upgrade of the AI age is not technological — it's personal. We explore why love, not fear, is the only leadership strategy built for what's coming, why nuclear weapons are a greater existential threat than artificial intelligence, and how psychedelic therapy and Vedantic philosophy transformed the way Brett thinks about building companies, raising consciousness, and saving humanity from itself. If you've ever wondered what you're actually building your work for, this episode is your answer. Find Brett at loveconquersfear.org and on the Love Conquers Fear podcast, published every Tuesday.

But a concrete economic plan for extreme job losses just might. Daniel Schreiber, CEO of Lemonade and founder of the MOSAIC AI Policy Institute, joins Bradley to make a surprisingly hopeful case. The enormous wealth generated by AI can be captured and redistributed in a way that leaves almost everyone better off, he argues, without raising taxes, punishing innovation, or trusting politicians with a slush fund. "Poverty should end in the era of abundance," says Schreiber. "It should simply end."This episode was taped at P&T Knitwear at 180 Orchard Street — New York City's only free podcast recording studio.Send us an email with your thoughts on today's episode: info@firewall.media.Subscribe to Bradley's weekly newsletter and follow Bradley on Linkedin + Substack.

For months, Portugal, Austria, and Germany had been duking it out behind the scenes at the General Assembly. These three EU allies were competing for just two seats on the Security Council, where they would serve for two years as non-permanent members. They needed the votes of two-thirds of the Assembly to secure those seats, and one country would be the odd European out. As Baerbock read the results, she sat stone-faced while the General Assembly erupted in raucous applause: Portugal and Austria would be joining the Security Council in 2027. Germany was snubbed. This was the first time that Germany sought a Security Council seat and lost. What's more, it was the first time that any of the so-called "G4" countries — India, Brazil, Japan, and Germany — were denied a seat on the Council. Adding insult to injury in Berlin is the fact that, ever since the United States sharply cut foreign aid, Germany has been the largest bilateral donor in the world, according to OECD figures. So what happened here? Why was Germany snubbed? In this episode of To Save Us From Hell, our podcast about the United Nations, we break down the likely reason that Germany fell from a shoo-in for the Council to losing an election to much smaller European countries. But first, we discuss the first "hustings" in the race for UN Secretary-General, hosted in London by the United Nations Association of the United Kingdom. Five of the six declared candidates for UN Secretary-General took rapid-fire questions before a live audience in London. We break down what we learned about the candidates — and what their answers suggest about who might become the next UN Secretary-General.

Hey Team! When I moved into my neighborhood, most of the houses weren't built.  So I got to see over the course of a few years, a lot of the work that went into putting those houses up, all the day-to-day progress that always kept happening, and how every step seemed to set them up for the next step. Now, nobody expects a brick wall to just materialize out of midair on pure willpower or a house to get completely built with no effort. yet when it comes to managing our daily routines, that's exactly what we try to do. We expect our internal motivation to keep us on track despite our own track record, and then we get frustrated when they fall flat. In this episode, we're taking a look at why our attempts to build traditional habits often doesn't work with ADHD, and why it isn't a moral failure or a lack of trying. We're going to explore the critical mechanics of external scaffolding versus internal habits, digging into how we can stop burning through our limited supply of daily executive function and start building physical infrastructure that does the heavy lifting for us If you'd life to follow along on the show notes page you can find that at HackingYourADHD.com/298 YouTube: https://tinyurl.com/y835cnrk Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/HackingYourADHD This Episode's Top Tips Traditional habits rely on an internal dopamine reward to lock them onto autopilot. Because ADHD reward chemistry is wildly inconsistent, that "autopilot" switch rarely flips. Instead, we want to work on designing our environment through systems to help make our intentions inevitable. Passive reminders are entirely too easy for an ADHD brain to ignore. Instead, use design psychology to create physical roadblocks that force conscious awareness. Putting your clean laundry basket directly on the couch cushion where you want to sit forces your brain to actively negotiate with the task before you can proceed. Human brains naturally drift toward the path of least resistance. Take advantage of this by manipulating that friction. Lower the friction for positive intentions by creating one-step solutions, like a dedicated key basket by the front door, or crank up the friction for distractions by doing things putting your phone completely out of reach so you can't just pick it up without thinking about it. Your physical environment is never neutral; it is actively directing your behavior right now, whether you designed it or not, which means relying on willpower is a losing game. Treat environmental design as a handoff between two versions of you: let your "Good Brain Day" self build a physical world that protects and supports your "Bad Brain Day" self.

In this episode, we break down Ryan Burge's demographic analysis of American Protestant churches and the uncomfortable math behind membership decline. Using age-distribution data across major denominations, Burge argues many churches aren't stable—they're simply being “buoyed by the Baby Boomers.” With modal ages in the late 60s, shrinking numbers of young adults, and fewer children in the pipeline, many groups are approaching a demographic tipping point. Decline won't be gradual; it will feel slow and then sudden. Unless leaders plan now, some denominations could lose 30–50% of their adult members over the next couple of decades. The message is clear: this isn't a theological or programmatic problem. It's an actuarial problem, and the clock is already ticking. The post The Burge Report: Boomers Can't Save Us Forever: The Hard Truth About Church Demographics appeared first on Church Answers.

There’s a reason a tenth of all Black elected officials in the nation reside in the state of Mississippi. That reason: the power of community organizing. The recent Supreme Court decision on redistricting makes the need for that organizing all the more urgent, not only in Mississippi but throughout the nation.
