In today's interview, Matt sits down with Fr. Mark-Mary Ames, CFR for his third appearance on Pints with Aquinas. The conversation focuses on prayer (particularly the Rosary), finding refuge in Jesus in the midst of a chaotic world, the division we experience today on social media, God's mercy, what religious life and the priesthood are like, plus answers to questions from Locals supporters.

PREVIEW WARNING AGAINST FRAGMENTED STATE-LEVEL AI REGULATION Colleague Kevin Frazier. Kevin Frazier, a University of Texas Law School fellow, warns against fragmented AI regulation by individual states seeking tax revenue. He advocates for a national framework rather than hasty local laws, arguing that allowing technology to develop through "trial and error" is superior to heavy-handed, immediate restrictions.

There's a Sign - Pt.2 (Seeking a Sign) [Pastor Devyn] Sunday, Dec 14th by The House

In this episode, I break down what makes a man low value and why this is a warning, not an insult. There are more ways to fail than to succeed, and most men end up low value simply by drifting and not being intentional. This isn't about money, looks, or followers—it's about your energy, discipline, and standards. Low value men chase, overexplain, and move without direction, often without even realizing it. I'm laying this out so you can check yourself, build awareness, and make sure you don't slide into habits that hold you back. Show Notes: [07:27]#1 Seeking validation instead of giving direction. [13:06]#2 Low value men do not enforce boundaries on themselves nor on others.  [22:17]#3 Low value Men spend their energy explaining why they are not winning.

What if the “techno-feudalism” boom is a symptom of our confusion rather than a diagnosis of the age? We sit down with Alex Hochuli (Bungacast, American Affairs) to interrogate the feudal metaphor and make a sharper case: we're living through total capitalism's decay, not a return to lords and serfs. That lens helps make sense of platform tolls, anti-market monopolies, surveillance, and institutional rot without pretending we've exited capitalism's basic relations of production.We trace why the feudal story resonates—unfreedom feels real—then test it against history. Feudalism meant manorial production, oath-bound sovereignty, and overlapping legal orders; our world runs on consolidated states, global supply chains, and platform intermediaries that convert risk into reliable rents. The better comparison is peripherization: practices once common in the periphery now shape the core, from precarious work to state-enabled accumulation. That shift helps explain why labor leverage has collapsed despite rising public sympathy: dispersed service shops, automated production, and logistics-dependence blunt traditional organizing power.China enters as Rorschach test: state capitalism, social credit, and surveillance make the feudal label tempting, yet the core logic remains capitalist, steered by growth imperatives and legitimacy management. We explore AI's forked path—job-displacing windfall or costly stagnation—and why care-economy fixes won't build a livable future on their own. If everyone secretly wants social democracy back, we ask what could replace the vanished conditions that once made it possible.The conversation ends with “dark hope.” Drop the costume drama, name the system we have, and fight for a directly political project that builds capacity: housing, grids, industry, and public institutions that actually work. Speak against oligarchy in terms a broad public can hear.

In a landmark interview on The Ash Said It Show, Tom Buchsbaum, co-founder of Austin Craft Spirits, detailed the origin story of a brand that is systematically redefining the American spirits landscape. Transitioning from tech innovation to precision distilling, Buchsbaum has positioned Austin 101 at the intersection of Texas Terroir and Environmental Stewardship. The Genesis: Solving the "Bourbon Fatigue" Market Gap Buchsbaum's moment of conviction came from identifying a "White Space" in the spirits industry. While the market was saturated with heavy, oak-forward Bourbons and spicy Ryes, there was a profound lack of high-clarity, grain-forward spirits. Austin 101 was engineered to bridge the gap between premium vodka and traditional whiskey. By utilizing the Light Whiskey designation, Buchsbaum's team distills at a higher purity—precisely between 160 and 190 proof—resulting in a spirit that retains the complex esters of the grain without the aggressive wood tannins of a virgin barrel. The Science of Texas Terroir: Steam Distillation The brand's "flavor-first" philosophy is powered by a custom-engineered 42-foot steam-jacketed column still. Unlike traditional direct-fire stills that can scorch the mash, Austin 101's precision thermal control operates below 210∘F. The Mash Bill: 100% Texas-grown non-GMO white corn, red winter wheat, and malted barley. The Profile: This low-temperature extraction preserves the signature butterscotch, vanilla, and stone fruit notes that have become the brand's sensory hallmark. Sustainability: The Circular Whiskey Economy Austin 101's commitment to Green Luxury is anchored in their Circular Aging Process. The distillery exclusively utilizes recycled American white oak barrels sourced from local Texas craft bourbon makers. This sustainable finishing serves two critical functions: Ecological Preservation: It drastically reduces the carbon footprint associated with new timber harvesting. Flavor Refinement: By using "seasoned" wood, the whiskey undergoes a mellow maturation that highlights the grain's natural sweetness rather than masking it behind heavy char. Future Trajectory: Scaling the "Texas Light" Global Category Small-Batch Precision at Scale As Austin 101 expands its distribution footprint beyond the Texas border, the brand employs a data-driven distillation model to ensure consistency. From the approachable Austin 85 to the award-winning Austin 111 Cask Strength, the scaling process remains rooted in small-batch integrity and rigorous quality control. The Next Frontier of Innovation Buchsbaum teased a roadmap of experimental releases designed to push the boundaries of the Light Whiskey category. Enthusiasts can expect: Grain-Specific Expressions: Leveraging high-rye mash bills for a "Light but Bold" profile. Experimental Cask Finishes: Utilizing the unique Texas climate to accelerate interactive aging in diverse secondary vessels. 2035 Vision: Defining Texas Whiskey Globally The long-term vision is clear: Austin 101 aims to be the global benchmark for Texas Light Whiskey. Within the next decade, Buchsbaum anticipates Light Whiskey becoming a mainstream pillar of the spirits industry, with Austin 101 leading the charge through its unique blend of technical precision, authentic provenance, and sustainable distilling. Web: https://www.austin101whiskey.c... About the brand: Austin 101 stands as a testament to geographic authenticity. Eschewing the shortcuts of mass-produced spirits, the distillery anchors its identity in Texas Terroir. Every drop is forged from a proprietary mash bill of 100% locally sourced grains, including non-GMO white corn, soft red winter wheat, and malted barley. By maintaining a strict grain-to-glass pipeline, Austin 101 ensures that the spirit remains an honest reflection of the Hill Country's agricultural heritage. The brand rejects artificial additives and chill-filtration, opting instead for a transparent expression of the raw ingredients. Precision Crafting: The Art of High-Proof Refinement The hallmark of Austin 101 is its precision distillation process. While conventional whiskeys often lean on heavy barrel char to mask imperfections, Austin 101 utilizes a high-proof distillation method (reaching between 160 and 190 proof) to isolate the most elegant flavor compounds. This technical rigor allows for the surgical removal of harsh congeners, leaving behind a clean, sophisticated "heart" of the spirit. The result is a structural complexity rarely found in American whiskey—a profile characterized by: Bright Top Notes: Notes of wildflower honey and stone fruit. Mid-Palate Depth: Rich layers of creamy butterscotch and Madagascar vanilla. A Refined Finish: A signature "light" exit that is exceptionally smooth, favoring subtle almond and spice over aggressive wood tannins. Visionary Sustainability and Circular Aging Austin 101 redefines luxury through the lens of environmental stewardship. Central to its mission is a pioneering Circular Aging Program. By maturing the spirit in recycled American white oak barrels, the distillery significantly mitigates the environmental impact of new timber harvesting. This sustainable approach is not merely an ecological choice but a flavor-driven one; the seasoned oak allows the delicate nuances of the Texas grain to flourish without being overwhelmed by the intense char of a virgin barrel. From localized grain procurement to water-conscious production, Austin 101 represents a new era of eco-conscious distilling, proving that a premium whiskey can be both world-class and world-respecting.

2025-12-25 | Way-Seeking Mind Talk | C. Seren8y by Appamada

Without intending to, we often put pressure on ourselves from trying too hard and seeking to achieve goals that may be unreasonable, which amounts to doing more and more and becoming increasingly frustrated.  Many "accomplished" people live on the edge of exhaustion and get no joy from what they do.  If we turn in the direction we want to go, and then quiet our minds and listen for our own wisdom, we'll see what to do, at what pace, and we'll enjoy the journey as much as appreciating the destination.Support the show

When the world's leading voice in human-centered privacy joins forces with the high-octane energy of Ash Brown, the result is an eye-opening deep dive into the digital frontier. Ash Brown welcomes Ken Griggs, the Emmy award-winning technologist and CEO of Julia Social, for a timely conversation about the UK government's proposed nationwide digital ID system and its global implications. The Big Debate: Security vs. Surveillance Ken Griggs brings decades of expertise in blockchain technology and cryptography to dissect what a centralized digital ID truly means for the average citizen. While governments pitch these systems as a convenience for accessing public services, Ken sounds the alarm on the hidden costs to personal privacy and data autonomy. In this captivating episode, Ash and Ken explore: The Centralization Trap: Why storing the identity of an entire nation in a single database creates a high-risk honey pot for hackers and state actors. The Julia Social Vision: How Ken's work with Julia Social advocates for a decentralized identity approach, where individuals—not institutions—own and control their own data. The UK Digital ID Ripple Effect: Why the global community should watch these legislative moves closely, as they could set a groundbreaking or dangerous precedent for digital rights worldwide. Turning Tech Insight into Real-World Action Ash Brown's signature Authentic Optimism keeps the conversation grounded as Ken provides actionable insights on how listeners can protect their digital footprints today. From understanding the mechanics of Not.Bot to the security power of the Chia blockchain, this interview bridges the gap between complex tech and everyday life.

Spending time with Karen Wickerson feels like opening a quiet doorway into the wisdom of the animals who walk beside us. Karen is an animal telepath, a former clinical counselor, and the author of Listen to Your Animals: They Know More Than You Think. Her connection to animals began when she was three years old and realized she could communicate with them. As she grew older, she learned to silence that gift because the people around her didn't understand it, until her soul eventually pulled her back toward the work she was meant to do.Karen shares how she reached a point in her counseling career where she knew she was “about to hit the wall” and feared she might make a severe mistake with a family. That moment pushed her to plan her exit and step toward a life that aligned with her true calling. It led her to a trek to Mount Everest base camp with asthma and only 70 percent lung capacity, a journey that taught her the power of moving forward even half an inch at a time.We explore how she connects with animals across distance, how she reads their unique energy signatures, and what she has learned about their emotional worlds. Karen describes what really happens when animals cross over and how they often explain it as simply taking off a coat they no longer need. She also shares stories about grief, soul agreements, and the ways animals guide their humans through important life decisions.Karen's work is a reminder that our animals are not just pets. They are teachers, companions, and wise, sentient beings who understand far more than we often realize.Key Reflections• Animals communicate through energy, emotion and intention.• Our relationships with them are true partnerships that often stretch across lifetimes.• When an animal passes, its essence remains connected to us.• The choices we make at the end of their life are guided and never wrong.Links and ResourcesKaren's website: https://karenwickerson.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/karenwickersonanimaltelepath/Karen's Book: Send us a text Support the show✨ Join My TEDx Spokane Journey!

Jake Smith calls upon Tom Malley and Chris Parsons to help preview Saturday's Championship match between Derby County and Portsmouth at Pride Park. Blues head coach John Mousinho also features, as does Kirsty Roxanne's latest opposition piece. Nicolas Schmid's contract extension and reports linking Spurs loanee Yang Min-hyeok to a permanent move to Real Madrid are discussed too.

A season of reflection led us back into years of past conversations, where unexpected threads began to intertwine. In this episode, we bring those threads into conversation with each other—voices like Makoto Fujimura, Praveen Sethupathy, Krista Tippett, Mike McHargue, and Bill Newsome—to explore how both science and faith gesture toward wholeness in a world marked by fracture. Themes of mending, spiritual hunger, rest, and stubborn hope surface anew as these earlier moments speak to one another in ways we couldn't have anticipated at the time. What emerges is less a retrospective and more a fresh way of seeing: an invitation to notice the cracks, name them honestly, and discern the gold that might do the work of mending. Clips from this episode are from: Makoto Fujimura, Episode 110, 2022 Praveen Sethupathy, Episode 120, 2022 Krista Tippett, Episode 15, 2019 Mike McHargue, Episode 24, 2019 Bill Newsome, Episode 77, 2021

Family physician and writer Dr. Mara Gordon interviews psychiatrist Dr. Jennifer Reid about her new book Guilt Free (releasing January, 27, 2026). The conversation explores why women experience disproportionate guilt, how to distinguish toxic from adaptive guilt, and practical strategies for managing guilt—especially during the holidays.The Guilt EquationDr. Reid breaks down guilt into a simple formula: Guilt = Expectations - Perceived Reality“Guilt is the difference between our expectations of ourselves, which are created by many things, the difference between that and how well we feel like we're meeting them.”The problem? Women often set impossibly high expectations while minimizing what they're actually accomplishing.Holiday GuiltDecember amplifies guilt because of:* Cultural expectations about creating “perfect” experiences* Pressure to control others' emotions* Comparison (social media, consumer-driven ideals)* Ambivalence about events we “should” enjoy“There's a lot of guilt around the sense of I should be feeling a certain way. I should be making sure others are feeling a certain way around this situation... And these expectations, which as we'll talk about are such a huge part of guilt, can really explode then.” Thanks for reading A Mind of Her Own!

Seeking political retribution is far different than prosecuting a winning case, as the Trump administration is coming to understand. Mary and Andrew begin here after a grand jury, once again, refused to re-indict New York Attorney General Letitia James. This comes along with a ruling limiting what evidence could be used in the case against James Comey if the government seeks to re-bring that case. The co-hosts also tee up what may come from Jack Smith's closed-door deposition in front of the House Judiciary Committee, before turning to the latest in the Kilmar Abrego Garcia saga, after Judge Paula Xinis ordered his release. Last up, Mary and Andrew head to the West coast for an update on the National Guard deployment in L.A., and offer some analysis on Judge Bybee's statement on 9th Circuit en banc review over deploying the National Guard to Portland, Oregon.Further Reading: Here is Judge Xinis' opinion regarding the release of Kilmar Abrego Garcia.  Sign up for MS NOW Premium on Apple Podcasts to listen to this show and other MS podcasts without ads.

Will Kennedy and Isiah Gray are members of Brothaz in the Foyer, a group that produces content to represent and share the experiences of Black members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. They are part of a larger group of hosts for the Brothaz in the Foyer Podcast, and their goal is to bring people “from the foyer into the chapel.” This conversation explores their personal journeys, the dynamics of race within the Church, and the importance of fostering understanding and inclusivity. Links YouTube: @brothazinthefoyer Instagram: @brothazinthefoyer TikTok: @brothazinthefoyer Paul Reeve books Transcript available with the video in the Zion Lab community Key Insights Experiences in the Temple: Will and Isiah share how their experiences as Black men in the temple often draw attention, highlighting the need for normalization of diverse representation within sacred spaces. Cultural Differences: The hosts discuss how their backgrounds influence their experiences in the Church, noting that cultural differences can lead to misunderstandings and the need for open dialogue. Reconciliation with Church History: Both emphasize the importance of understanding the Church’s history regarding race, including the priesthood ban, and how this knowledge can strengthen faith rather than diminish it. Empathy and Genuine Interaction: They stress the importance of treating all individuals as children of God and engaging in genuine conversations to bridge cultural gaps, rather than making interactions feel forced or awkward. Political Climate and Faith: The discussion touches on the politicization of race and the need for members to prioritize their faith and love for others over political affiliations, promoting unity within the Church. Leadership Applications Foster Open Dialogue: Leaders should create environments where members feel comfortable discussing sensitive topics related to race and culture, encouraging transparency and understanding. Educate on Church History: Leaders can benefit from familiarizing themselves with resources like Paul Reeve’s book on race in the priesthood to better address historical issues and foster inclusivity. Encourage Representation: Leaders should seek diverse voices in leadership roles and callings, recognizing that representation can enhance the community’s strength and unity, while also being mindful not to tokenize individuals based on race.

Shares a proven process that has worked for the author as well as thousands of others to communicate with deceased loved onesExplores the use of mediums, past-life and between-life hypnotic regressions, a technique called Induced After-Death Communication, and channeled writingPresents revelations about the soul's life after death, the structure of the afterlife, how karma works, and how to love in the face of painIf you've lost a loved one or had a brush with mortality, you undoubtedly have wondered about life after death—or if it's possible to connect with souls on the other side. After the tragic death of his son, Jordan, the author embarked on a journey for ways to communicate with his son across the veil. He discovered not only successful methods to connect with lost loved ones but also profound truths about the afterlife, the illusion of loss, and how pain is integral to our life purpose.McKay recounts techniques he tried in order to connect with his son, including collecting unusual experiences from family and friends, consulting mediums such as Austyn Wells, undergoing past-life and between-life regressions, engaging in a technique called Induced After-Death Communication, and using channeled writing, which he learned with the help of psychologist Ralph Metzner.The culmination of hundreds of channeled conversations with his son, the author presents revelations about the soul's life after death, the structure and key events of the afterlife, how karma works, why we incarnate, our future as souls, and how to love in the face of pain. As Jordan reveals, nothing is truly lost. The soul is constant and, while pain seems to damage us, the damage is an illusion. Because, as Jordan says, “there is no end; the conversation goes on . . . between all the souls who love each other, living and dead.”Matthew McKay, Ph.D., is a clinical psychologist, professor of psychology at the Wright Institute, cofounder of Haight Ashbury Psychological Services, founder of the Berkeley CBT Clinic, and cofounder of the Bay Area Trauma Recovery Clinic, which serves low-income clients. He has authored and coauthored more than 40 books, including The Relaxation and Stress Reduction Workbook and Seeking Jordan.

Helen Holden Slottje embodies the journey from reformist hope to revolutionary clarity. Once seated at the "Master's table" as a Harvard-educated "Big Law" attorney, she has first hand experience of the truth:  the tools of the system cannot dismantle it. Her trajectory—from corporate corridors to achieving New York's "impossible" statewide fracking ban —demonstrates the necessity not of reform but rupture, not of inclusion but the creation of entirely new forms of relationship.As founder of the Regenerative Law Institute, Helen doesn't help organizations achieve "sustainability tweaks" or better seats at existing tables. She guides the phase-shift from seeking permission to building autonomous power. Her Goldman Environmental Prize (the "Green Nobel") came not for working within the system but for revealing its fundamental illegitimacy.The fracking victory wasn't about better regulations—it was a generative refusal. By creating novel legal frameworks that made extraction literally impossible rather than merely regulated, Helen demonstrated proves that pressure doesn't need management but transformation into quantum leaps that exceed capture. Helen embodies her own thesis: liberation requires not better seats at the Master's tables but the courage to build new worlds where measurement gives way to meaning, where the impossible becomes inevitable.

This week's triggers involve a woman who is hurt that her friend keeps dodging her attempts to see her baby, while another listener, who is trying to get pregnant, is offended after her father drunkenly asks if he can spot a baby bump.
