Fifteen-year-old and co-founder of Lookupp, Atiksh Bhan, remembers when life was better. He and his friends would spend their afternoons biking, exploring the woods and playing games outside. But then, smartphones came along. =Instead of adventures, they'd spend their time sitting around, scrolling through TikTok. "We'd be huddled around one phone, looking over someone's shoulder. It just wasn't fun anymore," Atiksh says. And even though they were ‘connected' through technology, he felt lonelier than ever. Atiksh and his brother only had basic flip phones, but they started to notice a shift in their peers who had smartphones: increasing anxiety, depression and eating disorders. Adding phones to typical teen dilemmas, like breakups and friend drama, was like throwing gasoline on a fire. Determined to make a change, they created LookUpp – an app that rewards you for staying off your phone when you're with people you care about. The longer your screen is off, the more points you earn. And they're teaming up with parents, communities, and local businesses to translate points into real-life rewards. Tune in to hear directly from Atiksh, a teen navigating the digital age, as he and Nicki from Scrolling 2 Death talk about rebuilding connections, before it's too late.

Megan Lynch and WashU Doctoral Candidate in Clinical Psychology, Alison Tuck, discuss a new study on social media 'scrolling'. Could spending time on social media be beneficial?

In this episode, we dive into the pervasive impact of social media, phone apps, and digital devices on our daily lives, exploring how they consume hours that could be spent on more meaningful activities. We discuss recent studies showing that the average person spends over 4 hours daily on their phone, with social media platforms like X, TikTok, and Instagram designed to keep users engaged through addictive algorithms. The hosts share personal anecdotes about missing out on family dinners or quality time with friends due to mindless scrolling. Experts have shared how notification overload and app-driven dopamine loops hijack our attention, reducing productivity and straining relationships. The episode also offers practical tips for setting boundaries, such as app time limits, digital detoxes, and prioritizing face-to-face interactions. Ultimately, the episode challenges listeners to reflect on their digital habits and reclaim time for what truly matters—connection, creativity, and personal growth. Key Topics: 1. The addictive design of social media and apps 2. Impact on productivity and mental health 3. Strategies for balancing tech use with family and friend time 4. The value of intentional, offline moments ___________ Please leave us a review on Apple/Spotify Podcasts: Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/mentors-for-military-podcast/id1072421783 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/3w4RiZBxBS8EDy6cuOlbUl #mentors4mil  #mentorsformilitary #Scrollingourlivesaway Mentors4mil Links: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/Mentors4mil Patreon Support: https://www.patreon.com/join/Mentors4mil  Intro music "Long Way Down" by Silence & Light is used with permission.

Ever catch yourself mindlessly scrolling through your phone when you could be fully present with your kids? OR getting some "me time" in the morning before they're awake?In this episode, I share the eye-opening conversation I had with an overwhelmed working mom who confessed that a "quick win" she'd LOVE to experience: to use her phone less and be more present in her life.As busy moms juggling careers, households, and relationships, our phones often become both our escape and our secret saboteur. That quick dopamine hit of checking social media or emails might feel good in the moment, but it's stealing precious time you'll never get back with your family—and with yourself.

Are phones ruining school?  One high school principal says yes, and he did something about it.At Bullard High in Fresno, California, students wandered the halls like zombies, glued to their screens. Lunchtime was silent. Classrooms were battlegrounds for attention. Test scores dropped. Anxiety soared.Principal Armen Torigian, a Bullard alumnus, took pride in his community and remembered a very different high school experience. He knew times had changed, but he couldn't shake the feeling that students deserved better—high school should be better than this.So he made a bold move: a bell-to-bell phone ban.It wasn't easy. Parents pushed back. Students threatened him and his family. But he held the line, convinced it was the right thing to do. Was it?Join Principal Torigan and Nicki of Scrolling 2 Death as they unpack the ban, the fallout, and the promising changes unfolding on campus. His experience makes us reconsider: what role should phones play in our classrooms and our daily lives?

Summary: In this compelling conversation, Michael Easley and Brett McCracken examine the far-reaching impact of digital technology on spiritual life, mental health, and Christian community. They delve into the addictive nature of social media and gaming, drawing on the insights of Neil Postman and George Orwell to frame today's digital challenges. The discussion contrasts passive digital consumption with the richness of active, embodied living, emphasizing how an abundance of dopamine-driven experiences can dull the soul and contribute to a growing mental health crisis. They call Christians to navigate technology with wisdom—using it to serve their mission, not sabotage it—and to prioritize real human connection, spiritual growth through discomfort, and intentional community engagement in an increasingly digital world. Takeaways: Dystopian futures may stem from pleasure, not pain. Dopamine hits from technology can desensitize us. Digital gaming can be a form of mental gambling. The unpredictability of social media is addictive. Pain and discomfort can lead to growth. The stakes of digital engagement are high for Christians.

They may belong to the TikTok generation, but a group of Australian high schoolers is reviving the classic tradition of the student magazine. The teens believe it's more crucial than ever that their voices are heard away from the realm of social media. Student Spotlight is now up to its seventh issue and between student writers, editors and graphic designers, it can count on more than 20 volunteers to fill its pages. It is available online to all the schools of the Greater Darwin region. For these students of the social media era, going “old-school” was very appealing. “Someone has sat down and really put their time and effort into this, and I feel like there's more care, and people will take that more seriously, rather than just ‘oh, an Instagram reel, scroll',” says contributor Nicole. Featuring impactful news, edgy short stories, and sharp opinion pieces, no subject is out of bounds. “This is entirely student-driven. I'm just here as a supervisor, and I think they're showing what students are capable of when we sit back and let them take charge,” says teacher Trilokesh Chanmugam. Student Spotlight was founded by 16-year-old Pak who grew up in Hong Kong, where he says he witnessed violent arrests of young pro-democracy protesters. “I think just seeing those protests and seeing so many young people not being heard really left a long-lasting impact in how I think and how I act,” explains Pak. The students hope their magazine will give young people in Australia's Northern Territory a voice. “The Northern Territory fosters a lot of great young people and a lot of the time they have to work under less resources, but they're very resilient and they're also very good at finding different opportunities, there must be a way to showcase that,” says Pak. “Even if I'm one person, one person still makes a massive difference,” concludes Nicole.

"My generation wishes we didn't get social media so young. Everyone regrets being allowed to access these platforms. Everyone wishes their parents put more restrictions on their phone. Everyone wishes that they got to enjoy a more carefree childhood."At 20, Maya Englehorn reflects on getting her first smartphone when she was a freshman in high school, but being allowed on Instagram – via tablet – at age nine.  Back then, Instagram was simpler - no ads, sponsored posts, or TikTok-like reels. Even so, she wishes her parents had also delayed her social media use.What started as a college project on the mental health impacts of tech helped Maya see the dangers of tech for children. Her conviction led her to join Wired Human Youth Coalition, a nonprofit organization dedicated to raising awareness on digital harms and amplifying youth voices in political advocacy. The more she learns, the more she understands how social media highjacks childhood innocence.  With Wired Human Youth Coalition, Maya helped lead a survey exploring the effects of social media on high-school and college students. Their findings point to the addictive nature of social media and a clear link between time spent online and increased anxiety, depression and guilt.  Tune in as Nicki from Scrolling 2 Death unpacks the data – and hear Maya's compelling take on Gen Z growing up in a digital world.Maya Englehorn is a Junior at Belmont University in Nashville Tennessee, studying Global Leadership and Business Administration. Maya is actively involved in the Wired Human Youth Coalition, a nonprofit organization dedicated to promoting discussions on online harms and mental health with a focus on empowering young voices to lead the conversation in political advocacy.Over the past year, she conducted a survey exploring the impact of social media on high school and college students. In February, she presented her findings at the U.S. Capital Roundtable on Kids Online Safety, calling for stronger digital protections.Maya is committed to being a voice of hope for her generation, aiming to pursue a path addressing today's most pressing challenges. After graduation, she hopes to build a career at the intersection of global development and social impact, working to empower communities and contribute to lasting, meaningful solutions worldwide.Connect with Maya on LinkedIn here.

This week we celebrate Easter and the resurrection of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ! Pastor Ulysses takes us through a passage in Acts where Paul shares about the one true God to the people in Athens, who were at the time completely consumed by daily news—much like we are today in the Bay Area. He explains how each of us can experience the resurrection life today if we look upon the cross and acknowledge the sacrifice he has made that we might live!

Do you ever scroll through social media and wonder why everyone else's life seems perfect while yours feels like a constant struggle? C - Monster dives deep into this modern phenomenon, exposing the carefully crafted illusions that dominate our digital landscape and impact our self-worth.With raw honesty and zero filter, this episode challenges our cultural obsession with influencers and celebrities who we elevate to hero status despite knowing nothing about their true character. "Idolize the person that gets up every freaking morning to go to work, to put food on the table and a roof over your head," Sea Monster urges, encouraging listeners to redirect their admiration toward those who genuinely impact their lives—parents, teachers, coaches, and mentors who provide authentic guidance and support.The conversation takes a revealing look at gym culture, where people film elaborate workouts while barely breaking a sweat, and contrasts it with genuine grinders who are "too busy grinding" to document their journey. Sea Monster delivers the powerful truth that "a good person, a real person, actually works harder and better and does the right thing when nobody is looking." This becomes the episode's core message: character is defined not by what you showcase online but by who you are when there's no external validation at stake.Whether you're struggling with social media addiction or simply feeling lost in a world of digital smoke and mirrors, this episode offers a refreshing reality check and a path toward authentic living. Subscribe to Can't Be Broken for more unfiltered conversations that challenge conventional thinking and inspire genuine growth beyond the constraints of social expectations.

In this powerful episode, Dr. Debi sits down with Dr. Anthony Mazzella, a psychoanalyst and psychotherapist, to break down the complexities of toxic narcissistic relationships. From love bombing and devaluation to trauma bonding and the psychology behind both the narcissist and their partner, this conversation is filled with eye-opening insights. If you've ever wondered why you feel stuck in a toxic relationship, or how to break free from unhealthy patterns, this episode is a must-listen.  Key Topics Covered  What is a narcissist? Understanding the key traits of narcissism and how they manifest in relationships.  The cycle of narcissistic relationships: From idealization to devaluation, how the pattern keeps people trapped.  Is love bombing intentional? The surprising truth about why narcissists appear so invested in the beginning.  The ‘Shared Fantasy' concept: Why both partners play a role in the toxic dynamic.  The making of a narcissist: How early childhood experiences shape narcissistic tendencies.  Why some people are drawn to narcissists: Exploring the unmet emotional needs that make individuals vulnerable to these relationships.  Grandiose vs. Vulnerable Narcissists: Understanding the two primary types and how they manipulate relationships differently.  Breaking the cycle: Steps to take if you're in a relationship with a narcissist and want to heal.  Can narcissists change? The truth about transformation and what it takes to create lasting change.  Key Takeaways  Not all narcissists intentionally manipulate—many are unaware of their own behaviors.  The attraction to narcissists is often rooted in unresolved emotional wounds.  Narcissists seek "supply" (validation) in different ways, depending on their type.  More effort won't change a narcissist's behavior—understanding the root cause is key.  Setting boundaries and shifting the dynamic can create positive change, but only if the narcissist is willing.  Awareness is the first step toward healing—both for narcissists and their partners.    Resources & Next Steps  Learn More About Dr. Anthony Mazzella: Visit DrMazzella.com for his podcast, videos, and additional resources.    Resources & Connect with Dr. Debi    The PBT Institute: Break free from the pain of betrayal and find safety, love, and trust again.    For the betrayed – Reclaim: Heal from your betrayal and take your life back.    For the betrayer – Rebuild: Heal yourself and help heal the heart you broke.    Take the Post Betrayal Syndrome Quiz – Post-Betrayal Syndrome Quiz    Want to become a Certified PBT Coach/Practitioner? Check out our FREE masterclass here.       Subscribe & Leave a Review: If you loved this episode, please subscribe and leave a review on Apple Podcasts/Spotify!  You can do that by: 1.

Worum geht's? 1990 erscheint mit F-Zero ein Launch-Titel für das brandneue Super Nintendo, der nicht nur als technisches Schaufenster für das neue Mode-7-Scrolling dient, sondern auch ein neues Subgenre im Rennspielbereich definiert: futuristische High-Speed-Rennen mit schwebenden Gleitern auf halsbrecherischen Strecken. Als Spieler steuert man eines von vier Fahrzeugen durch Loopings, Schikanen und Energiezonen – begleitet von einem ikonischen Soundtrack und minimalistischem, aber prägnantem Design. Gunnar und Fabian sprechen in dieser Folge über die Entstehung des Spiels, die Bedeutung für Nintendos 16-Bit-Start und wie F-Zero mit Tempo, Stil und Präzision den Grundstein für eine langlebige Serie legte. Infos zum Spiel: Thema: F-Zero Erscheinungstermin: November 21, 1990 (Japan), USA 1991, EU 1992 Plattform: SNES Entwickler: Nintendo EAD Publisher: Nintendo Genre: Rennspiel Designer: Takaya Imamura, Shigeru Miyamoto u.a.
