I've been trying to understand how machine learning actually works. Not use it, understand it, down to the ifs and loops. How does a program built out of plain conditionals get better on its own? So late one night I sent Don a paper. Three words in the title: reward is enough. The claim is that all of intelligence, the whole thing, comes down to a system maximizing a reward. Don thought that was far too reductive. I wanted to pull it apart and see if it held up. We backed up through the history to find out how far "reward is enough" really goes: B.F. Skinner training pigeons, a backgammon program that taught itself, the Go move no human would have played. It's a story about machine learning, and what that leaves for the rest of us who still do it by hand. Episode Page Support The Show Subscribe To The Podcast Join The Newsletter
Plaidoyer contre l'uniformisation de l'éducation canineUn même mouvement inquiétant traverse notre société à des sphères pourtant très différentes. On parle de la standardisation des pratiques. Santé (dans les hôpitaux, d e la gériatrie à la psychiatrie), éducation de l'enfant via les méthodes de psychologie comportementale, management d'entreprise, etc. Et malheureusement pour le chien, l'éducation canine n'en réchappe pas. Les protocoles d'éducation en ligne se multiplient. Ils promettent efficacité, accessibilité, universalité. Ils rassurent par leur structure et donnent rapidement une impression de contrôle. Ils offrent des étapes, des schémas, des recettes, souvent à moindre coût.

The Cincinnati Bengals created salary cap space this week by restructuring quarterback Joe Burrow's contract, a move that longtime observers say reflects an unusually aggressive offseason for the franchise. According to multiple reports, the restructuring frees up approximately $10 million in salary cap space and comes after the Bengals acquired All-Pro defensive tackle Dexter Lawrence in a blockbuster trade. The move is notable because Cincinnati has historically avoided restructuring contracts to push salary cap charges into future seasons. “I think one of the biggest things for me, quite frankly, is that it shows this continues to be an atypical offseason,” Local 12 digital sports columnist and editor Richard Skinner said to Mike Petraglia of CLNS Media. “From trading for Dexter Lawrence to overspending at a couple of positions of need, it continues that trend.” While some of the newly created cap space helps account for Lawrence's contract, Skinner said the move also gives the Bengals flexibility to address other roster needs, including adding a veteran linebacker or offensive tackle. The restructuring came just minutes before the Bengals announced the signing of second-round draft pick Cashius Howell, officially putting all seven members of the team's 2026 draft class under contract. Unlike a pay cut, a restructuring converts salary into a signing bonus that can be spread across future years of the contract. “They did the best of both worlds,” Skinner said. “It gives you the flexibility to still add to the roster today without just kicking the can way down the road.” Petraglia noted the Bengals could have freed up nearly twice as much cap space but chose a more measured approach. “By converting only enough salary to free up the $10 million, I think the Bengals showed a layer of restraint,” Petraglia said. “It's the best of both worlds for the Bengals in this particular case.” The discussion also highlighted several emerging storylines from organized team activities. One is veteran safety Kyle Dugger, who joined Cincinnati after stops with New England and Pittsburgh. Skinner described Dugger as a potentially valuable veteran presence and a candidate to contribute in defensive packages featuring three safeties. The pair also discussed rookie linebacker Boye Mafe, whose versatility could allow defensive coordinator Al Golden to deploy more varied fronts featuring players who can rush the passer or drop into coverage. Both agreed that Lawrence remains one of the most intriguing additions heading into training camp. “I cannot wait to see Dexter Lawrence line up against somebody else,” Skinner said. “He's just going to overwhelm some people at times.” Mandatory minicamp begins next week, when coaches and media will get a clearer picture of how the Bengals' revamped roster fits together heading into the 2026 season.
How to Strengthen Your Relationship: The Questions Every Couple Should Be Asking Podcast Summary Relationships rarely fail because couples stop caring. More often, they struggle because they stop asking the questions that create understanding, connection, and growth. In this episode of the Human Intimacy Podcast, Dr. Kevin Skinner and MaryAnn Michaelis explore the questions every couple should be asking to strengthen their relationship, improve communication, and build deeper emotional intimacy. Rather than focusing solely on relationship advice, they discuss how meaningful self-reflection and intentional conversations can help couples gain clarity about where they are, where they want to go, and how they want to show up for one another. Topics include rebuilding trust, creating emotional safety, vulnerability, attachment, relationship expectations, annual marriage check-ins, and navigating life's unexpected challenges. Dr. Skinner and MaryAnn discuss how experiences such as betrayal, infertility, parenting stress, health concerns, and other major life transitions often force couples to reevaluate their priorities and rediscover what matters most in their relationship. Listeners will learn how thoughtful questions can uncover hidden assumptions, increase self-awareness, reduce resentment, and strengthen connection. The episode also explores the relationship between safety, trust, vulnerability, and emotional intimacy, drawing on insights from attachment theory, relationship research, and neuroscience. Whether you're recovering from betrayal, working through conflict, or simply seeking a stronger and healthier marriage, this conversation offers practical tools to help you create more meaningful and intentional relationships. What You'll Learn Why the question "What are we doing?" can transform a relationship How relationship goals evolve over time The importance of annual marriage check-ins How trust, safety, and vulnerability influence connection Why major life events often require couples to reassess their relationship The role of self-awareness in relationship success How asking better questions leads to deeper emotional intimacy Practical journaling and reflection exercises for couples How to identify and address unspoken resentments Why relationship growth requires intentional effort Key Questions from This Episode What are we doing in this relationship?

Despite our best efforts, the World Cup is happening again, and it's happening here. Though we were able to put it off for 400+ episodes, it's finally time for us to do some winter holiday songs about the so-called beautiful game. Ian, in particular, has a lot of say. First up, we hear "Three Lions (It's Coming Home for Christmas)" by Baddiel, Skinner and the Lightning Seeds, a 2022 holiday version of their 1996 hit. Then it's "Star of Lisbon" by Celtic FC (I guess), a holiday song that is, in a rare event on our show, not really about the holidays and ALSO just barely a song. The ranking music in this episode is the theme to "Taskmaster" as performed by David Baddiel.
We're joined today by Commissioner Nancy Skinner. Skinner is serving her first term on the California Energy Commission after serving as a state senator at the California State Senate from 2016 to 2024 and as a member of the California State Assembly from 2008 to 2014. if Skinner is a newbie to the CEC, she is no stranger to energy policy issues, having authored AB 2514 which created requirements for electrical corporations to implement energy storage systems. If you have noticed that the state now has less "rolling" blackouts, AB 2514 is a big part of the reason why. She spoke with us about the Trump Administration's opposition to California's climate goals, the challenges (and opportunities) presented by Data Centers, and her landmark Name Image and Likeness legislation, SB 206, which changed college sports across the country. And, with the Primary behind us, a long list of candidates for Who Had the Worst Week in California Politics. 3:59 E bike bills 5:36 Nancy Skinner 7:38 Art Rosenfeld 10:01 California's climate goals 11:09 "Texas is ahead of us" 13:52 Data Centers 16:27 The multi-state grid 18:43 The Federal position 24:13 Energy costs in the campaign for governor 28:36 Name Image and License legislation 36:51 Title IX 37:41 Energy storage bill 39:29 #WWCA Want to support the Capitol Weekly Podcast?

Send us Fan MailIn this episode of the Blue Grit Podcast, we sit down with Wood County Sgt. Jaclyn Skinner, whose life changed the moment she walked into a cluttered house to serve a warrant.Inside, she spotted a familiar tattoo through a partially open shower curtain.Then gunfire erupted.Sgt. Skinner was shot four times. In the middle of the chaos, she fought to survive and helped get her partner out alive.But the shooting was only the beginning.What came next was a brutal recovery, delayed treatment approvals, denied equipment, and a Texas workers' compensation system that forced an injured officer to fight for the care she clearly needed.Joining this episode are John Wilkerson and Bryan Flatt from the Texas FOP and TMPA legislative team.Together, they break down why the system continues to fail injured first responders, how utilization reviews and contested case hearings can delay care, and why officers often cannot simply use their regular health insurance when workers' comp stalls.They also explain the legislative fight to fix the system, including how a widely supported reform can pass the House and still die in the Senate.This conversation goes beyond one shooting.It exposes the physical, mental, and financial toll injured officers face after the headlines fade. We discuss PTSD, peer support, rural agency staffing, confidentiality concerns, and why fear of being labeled can keep officers from getting help.The message is simple:Getting shot should not be followed by getting denied.Injured officers should not have to battle the system after surviving the streets.And every officer who believes, “If I get hurt, they'll take care of me,” needs to hear this episode.Hit play now.

The sight of Bengals stars Ja'Marr Chase and DJ Turner at organized team activities this week is helping fuel the energy around a team that believes it has made major offseason upgrades, according to Local 12 Digital Sports Columnist and Editor Richard Skinner. Skinny joined Mike Petraglia of CLNS media for a podcast Wednesday and discussed how Chase, Turner and Tee Higgins all taking part in OTAs sends a message that the team is “all in” after an offseason that included a major addition on defense. “It adds energy and enthusiasm,” Skinner said of the attendance at the voluntary workouts. Turner, who is entering the final year of his contract, said he wanted to be present because he wants to be part of the team's new vibe. Skinner said Chase's appearance also stood out, even though the star receiver had previously suggested he would be present for mandatory minicamp. Higgins took part in some of the seven-on-seven work and made a highlight-reel catch over defensive back Dax Hill. The offseason additions on defense, including the trade for defensive tackle Dexter Lawrence, have raised expectations in Cincinnati, Skinner said, and the team's early workouts appear to reflect that confidence. Skinner also said the Bengals' OTAs are helping show how the team plans to use some of its personnel, including tight end Erick All, who is returning from serious knee injuries. Skinner said All moved well in drills and may be part of more two-tight-end sets if he remains healthy. The Bengals continue OTAs next week before moving into mandatory minicamp.
Affair, Addiction, or Something More? Understanding the Story Behind Sexual Betrayal Summary In this episode of the Human Intimacy Podcast, Dr. Kevin Skinner and MaryAnn Michaelis explore one of the most confusing and emotionally overwhelming questions couples face after betrayal: Was this “just” an affair, or is there something deeper happening? Together, they discuss the critical importance of understanding the full story behind sexual betrayal before attempting relationship repair. The conversation explores the differences between infidelity, compulsive sexual behavior, pornography addiction, emotional affairs, and trauma-driven patterns, while emphasizing why proper assessment and professional support are often essential. Dr. Skinner and MaryAnn explain how secrecy, deception, and incomplete information impact the betrayed partner's nervous system, often leading to anxiety, hypervigilance, and worst-case-scenario thinking. They also discuss why premature couples therapy can sometimes do more harm than good when active betrayal or addiction is still occurring. Additional topics include: The progression of sexual behaviors Sexual history timelines and formal disclosures Trauma reenactment and attachment wounds The Zeigarnik Effect and unresolved emotional pain The impact of pornography and online sexual behaviors Why understanding the roots of behavior matters for healing How assessment tools help therapists identify deeper patterns This episode offers compassionate guidance for individuals and couples trying to make sense of betrayal, while reminding listeners that healing becomes possible when the full story is brought into the light.

In this episode I am once again joined by Duncan Barford, occult practitioner, counsellor, and author of “Occult Experiments in the Home”. Duncan reflects on his training as a counsellor and the difficulties in sharing his occult interests in that context; his deep appreciation of Freud and Jung; and the links between psychoanalysis and mythic figures such as such as Uranus, Oedipus, and Narcissus. Duncan considers whether Buddhism is merely a useful fiction, offers advice for those interested in learning how tp use mythology to gain insight into life, and explains why the emphasis of his spiritual practice has shifted from awakening to psychological wellbeing. Duncan also talks about his new magical novel, “The Going Down”, describes its plot and messages, and reveals why he believes the practice of Pragmatic Dharma can accrue a profoundly dark karmic debt. … Video version: www.guruviking.com Also available on Youtube, iTunes, & Spotify – search ‘Guru Viking Podcast'. … Topics include: 00:00 - Intro 00:59 - Duncan's therapist hated the occult 02:58 - Misconceptions about Jungian therapy 04:19 - Psychopomp as therapist 04:25 - Freud, Jung, Skinner, Piaget, Rogers, and Carlyle 08:48 - Duncan was a fervent Freudian 09:35 - Freud vs trauma therapy 13:13 - What Freud did 15:58 - Buddhism's useful fiction 19:47 - Where Freud went wrong 21:50 - The castration complex 26:37 - Castration myths 27:58 - Freud and Duncan's childhood 30:40 - Universal or culturally specific? 32:15 - Oedipus, myth, and psychoanalysis 37:29 - Duncan's novel 38:36 - Writing “The Going Down” 41:11 - Plot summary 43:07 - A life-changing ancestor working 44:22 - Duncan's hope for the book 45:53 - Fiction and the occult 48:40 - Alan Chapman's dismay at the novel 49:22 - The dark, karmic debt of Pragmatic Dharma 54:38 - Meeting a Dark Goddess 56:15 - The myth of Persephone 59:49 - A change in Duncan's meditation practice 01:00:43 - This is the Underworld 01:02:34 - Bailey's and Steve's problems 01:03:55 - The Franklin's Tale 01:05:30 - How occultists interpret their life situations 01:09:12 - Is everyone psychotic? 01:10:45 - Using depression and panic as portals 01:12:16 - Duncan believes in everything 01:14:00 - Internal vs external integration 01:19:30 - Why you need mythic literacy 01:20:57 - How to learn more about myths 01:22:55 - Should you read myths? 01:25:07 - The myth of Narcissus 01:28:25 - Scholar vs poet 01:32:22 - Finishing a novel 01:34:06 - Narrative fashions in fiction 01:36:01 - Haunting quality 01:37:43 - A companion in the Underworld … Watch previous episodes with Duncan Barford: - https://www.guruviking.com/search?q=barford Read “The Going Down”: - https://godsandradicals.squarespace.com/bookstore/p/the-going-down-by-duncan-barford To find our more about Duncan Barford, visit: - https://www.duncanbarford.uk/ … For more interviews, videos, and more visit: - https://www.guruviking.com Music ‘Deva Dasi' by Steve James

The Bengals announced five new nominees Wednesday for the team's Ring of Honor ballot, adding former stars Geno Atkins, Carlos Dunlap, A.J. Green, Leon Hall and Andrew Whitworth ahead of the 2026 voting process. The additions join returning nominees Jim Breech, James Brooks, Cris Collinsworth, David Fulcher, Max Montoya, Bob Trumpy and Reggie Williams on the 12-player ballot that will be voted on by season ticket members beginning June 1. During their latest podcast, Local 12 digital sports columnist and editor Richard Skinner and Mike Petraglia of CLNS Media discussed how the addition of several modern-era stars could split votes among newer candidates while longtime Bengals legends continue waiting for induction. Skinner said he believes Brooks and the late Trumpy remain deserving candidates, especially as the Bengals prepare to reduce future Ring of Honor classes from two annual inductees to one beginning in 2027. “James Brooks is honestly overdue,” Skinner said. The pair also discussed how several current Bengals players — including Joe Burrow, Ja'Marr Chase and Tee Higgins — could eventually become future Ring of Honor candidates if the team breaks through with a Super Bowl title. Petraglia and Skinner also touched on the Bengals' unusually drama-free offseason, praising the organization's businesslike approach after major roster additions on defense and contract extensions for key offensive stars. The conversation also highlighted rookie defensive lineman Landon Robinson, with Skinner praising the former Navy standout's discipline, maturity and work ethic after recently graduating from the Naval Academy.

Confident Conversations: Teaching Children Healthy Intimacy, Connection, and Emotional Safety (with Dan Oakes) Summary In this episode of the Human Intimacy Podcast, Dr. Kevin Skinner sits down with Dan Oakes to discuss parenting, healthy sexuality, emotional connection, and prevention in today's digital culture. Dan shares insights from his new book, Confident Conversations: Teaching Your Children to Develop Healthy Intimacy, which helps parents navigate difficult but essential conversations about sexuality, intimacy, attachment, and emotional regulation. Together, they explore how many parents feel uncomfortable discussing sexuality because they themselves were never taught how to approach these conversations in healthy, emotionally connected ways. The discussion reframes sexuality not as something shameful, but as a normal human drive connected to attachment, connection, and emotional intimacy. Dan explains how shame becomes attached to core human urges and how this can create cycles of restriction, secrecy, binge behaviors, anxiety, and compulsive pornography use. Using relatable metaphors and attachment-based principles, the conversation highlights the importance of replacing shame with openness, emotional safety, and co-regulation. The episode also explores: the connection between shame and anxiety, how pornography functions as a “supernormal stimulus,” why novelty and dopamine influence compulsive behaviors, the importance of emotional connection in prevention, and how parents can build trust and emotional safety with their children. Dan shares five foundational parenting principles from his book: Build trust above all else Protect the home environment Teach progressive developmental facts early Model healthy affection Respond with calm rather than fear or shame Throughout the conversation, Dr. Skinner and Dan emphasize that prevention begins with connection, emotional safety, and courageous conversations. The episode offers practical guidance for parents, grandparents, therapists, and educators seeking to help children develop healthy intimacy, emotional resilience, and meaningful human connection in a highly digital world.

Episode 2064: Nir Eyal explains how variable rewards and user investment transform ordinary products into habit-forming experiences that keep people coming back. By understanding how companies use triggers, anticipation, and personal investment to shape behavior, listeners can better recognize the psychology behind modern technology while learning how these same principles can be used to build healthier and more beneficial routines. Read along with the original article(s) here: https://www.nirandfar.com/how-to-manufacture-desire/ Quotes to ponder: "Variable schedules of reward are one of the most powerful tools that companies use to hook users." "The fact that we have greater access to the web through our various devices also gives companies greater access to us." "Introducing variability multiplies the effect, creating a frenzied hunting state, activating the parts associated with wanting and desire."

Emotional Safety After Betrayal: Understanding Emotions, Trauma, and Relationship Healing Podcast Summary In this episode of the Human Intimacy Podcast, Dr. Kevin Skinner and MaryAnn Michaelis explore the connection between emotional safety, betrayal trauma, emotional regulation, and relationship healing after infidelity or sexual betrayal. Many individuals struggling with betrayal trauma, anxiety, emotional disconnection, or relationship conflict often suppress their true emotions by saying “I'm fine” while internally feeling overwhelmed, hurt, angry, anxious, or emotionally exhausted. In this conversation, Dr. Skinner and MaryAnn discuss why emotional honesty and emotional congruency are essential for rebuilding trust, emotional intimacy, and healthy communication in relationships. The episode examines how shame, emotional shutdown, avoidance, and trauma responses interfere with connection and healing. Listeners will also learn about emotional contagion, nervous system regulation, co-regulation, and the importance of creating emotionally safe relationships where both partners can openly express their feelings without fear of judgment, defensiveness, or rejection. Topics discussed include: Betrayal trauma recovery Healing after infidelity Emotional regulation in relationships Relationship communication skills Emotional safety and trust rebuilding PTSD symptoms after betrayal Emotional disconnection in marriage Co-regulation and nervous system healing Shame and emotional shutdown Understanding contradictory emotions after betrayal Emotional intelligence and self-awareness How unresolved emotions impact intimacy and connection Whether you are recovering from betrayal trauma, struggling with emotional intimacy, or trying to strengthen communication in your relationship, this episode provides practical insights into understanding emotions, rebuilding trust, and creating deeper human connection.

Welcome back to the Jack Westin MCAT Podcast with Mike and Molly! Last episode we broke down the neurobiology of language; Broca's, Wernicke's, split-brain patients. This episode we zoom all the way out and ask a question that's fascinated scientists for centuries:Does the language you speak actually shape the way you think?This is one of the most debated topics in MCAT psychology and one of the most fascinating. Mike and Molly break it all down, name by name, theory by theory.
In this groundbreaking episode of The Ash Said It Show, host Ash Brown sits down with celebrated behavioral specialist, international speaker, and 30-year eldercare veteran Lisa Skinner for a raw, unfiltered conversation that dismantles traditional, counterproductive approaches to dementia caregiving. For decades, well-meaning families and medical professionals have relied on "reality orientation"—the practice of constantly correcting, reminding, and pulling a cognitively impaired person back into our present facts. Drawing from the deeply moving stories and clinical breakthroughs in her acclaimed book, Truth, Lies & Alzheimer's: Its Secret Faces, Skinner argues that this traditional method is not only ineffective, but it can also be actively cruel to a failing brain. Instead of forcing a person living with dementia to conform to our stark reality, Skinner delivers a masterclass in empathy-driven communication and validation therapy. She challenges caregivers to perform an act of radical love: to completely abandon their own timeline and step fearlessly into the patient's reality. When a loved one's brain is undergoing biological regression, meeting them exactly where they are mentally is the only way to preserve their dignity and prevent severe emotional trauma.

A partir do encontro entre o Existencialismo de Simone de Beauvoir e o Behaviorismo de B.F. Skinner, conversamos sobre a frase "Seja Homem!" como uma imposição de performance que esconde a inexistência de uma essência masculina. Como seria uma vida que não se submete à cartilha de comportamentos imputados a um corpo, mas que se entende como um feixe de relações bio-psico-sociais em constante construção? É possível escapar dessa coação que tenta transformar hábitos culturais em naturezas imutáveis, reduzindo a potência singular a uma categoria pré-fabricada? Partimos da análise da seleção pelas consequências para entender que o "tornar-se homem" não é um destino, mas a condição de possibilidade para que possamos, finalmente, recusar os modelos dados e florescer em múltiplas almas e caminhos.ParticipantesRafael LauroRafael TrindadeLinksTexto lidoOutros LinksFicha TécnicaCapa: Felipe FrancoEdição: Pedro JanczurAss.

Robert Bortin, CEO of Classical Conversations and co-author of Woke and Weaponized, makes the documented case that America's public school system was never broken — it's working exactly as its Marxist architects designed, producing a country where less than half of adults read above a sixth-grade level and 73% of church-attending kids abandon their faith within two years of graduating. The Prussian model imported by Horace Mann, the Frankfurt School's march through teachers colleges, B.F. Skinner's behaviorist blueprint taught in education master's programs — none of this is conspiracy theory, it's quoted directly from the architects themselves. Trump's dismantling of the Department of Education, Bortin argues, is a sleight of hand: the laws remain, the funding continues, and moving it to the Labor Department only deepens the ideology that children exist to be trained as corporate widgets.

The Senators' offseason rumour mill is heating up, and we've got plenty to unpack on this episode of the Sens Nation Podcast.Could Ottawa have an interest in veteran Flyers defenceman Rasmus Ristolainen? Sounds like they did at the trade deadline. Would the Sens take a look at pending UFA goaltender Stuart Skinner if he hits the market? And after signing Stephen Halliday, does that signal the end for pending UFA Lars Eller in Ottawa?WIn our "Around the League" segment, we discuss the massive changes in Toronto's hockey operations with a new GM and the firing of head coach Craig Berube. Sounds like the same fate awaits Oilers coach Kris Knoblauch.It's another packed offseason episode of the Sens Nation Podcast, brought to you by Jim Keay Ford, Midas Ottawa, and Harding Your Home Comfort Centre.#OttawaSenators #GoSensGo #NHLTradeRumours #SensNation #StuartSkinner #RasmusRistolainen #PierreDorion #LarsEller #StephenHalliday #NHLPlayoffs

The Bowman Audit: A Disaster in the Making? | The McDavid Clock | The Oil Stream Is the championship window in Edmonton being slammed shut from the inside? Today on The Oil Stream, Dusty and Tommy are taking a flamethrower to the last two seasons as we conduct a full forensic audit of the Stan Bowman era. From the moment he took the keys to a Stanley Cup finalist, many argue the trajectory has been a straight line down—and the data is starting to back it up. On today's show: Peter Chiarelli 2.0?: We take a look down memory lane to analyze how we got here. Was the "patient" approach actually just a cover for a lack of vision? We compare Bowman's tenure to the darkest days of the Chiarelli era and ask if the Oilers are repeating the same catastrophic mistakes. The Hall of Shame (Worst Moves): We break down the moves that have set this franchise back, including: The Goaltending Gamble: Trading away Stuart Skinner and Brett Kulak for Tristan Jarry—a move that has backfired spectacularly as Jarry struggled to an .858 save percentage while Skinner flourished in Pittsburgh. The Offer Sheet Fiasco: Revisiting the loss of Philip Broberg and Dylan Holloway to St. Louis. Did Bowman's hesitation cost the Oilers two vital young pillars? The Deadline Depletion: Discussing the trades that sent away 2026 and 2027/28 first-round picks for rentals and aging veterans like Jason Dickinson and Connor Murphy. The "Concerned" Core: We revisit the chilling exit interviews from Connor McDavid and Leon Draisaitl. With the superstars calling the team "average" and expressing genuine concern, we ask if management has already lost the room. Offseason Crossroads: What happens now? With rumors of a rift between Bowman and Kris Knoblauch reaching a breaking point, we debate who survives the summer. Can the Oilers afford to let the same man who "messed up the trajectory" be the one to lead the free agent frenzy? On-Ice Needs: From the desperate search for a starting goalie (is Connor Ingram the answer?) to the impossible task of moving Darnell Nurse's contract, we map out the "must-haves" for a successful summer.

CINCINNATI (WKRC) - The Cincinnati Bengals' rookie class made an early impression during last week's minicamp, with first-year players showing both promise and areas for growth as the team transitions into the next phase of its offseason program. Rookie defensive end Cashius Howell stood out for his approach as much as his physical tools. Despite not yet signing his contract, Howell participated fully and emphasized his focus on football. “He looked the part and just how attentive he was really stood out,” Local 12 digital sports sports columnist and editor Richard Skinner said on the podcast with Mike Petraglia of CLNS Media. “He looked like a guy that really wanted to be coached.” Third-round pick Tacario Davis also drew attention — in part for his unusual build. The long, lanky cornerback has a notable wingspan that could translate into coverage advantages, though his frame remains a talking point early in camp. Seventh-round defensive lineman Landon Robinson, a Navy product, impressed with his size and strength. Skinner described him as “one giant slab,” noting his potential as a run-stuffer. While players with similar builds have not always succeeded at the NFL level, Robinson's background suggests a strong work ethic. “It's worth a seventh-round pick to find out,” Skinner said. “You're going to get the very best of him.” The Bengals appear focused on building depth along the defensive line, aiming to rotate players and wear down opposing offenses — a priority under defensive coordinator Al Golden. Offensively, fourth-round wide receiver Colbie Young remains a work in progress. Young showed inconsistency during early drills, including dropped passes, but his size — listed around 6-foot-4 — gives him a chance to develop into a downfield threat. “I want to see big plays from him,” Skinner said. “They need someone who can win 50-50 balls and stretch the field.” The rookie minicamp offered only a limited glimpse, consisting primarily of individual drills without full-team action. Still, the Bengals believe the class fits a broader plan focused on versatility and long-term development. That approach extends to the tight end position, where seventh-round pick Jack Endries could factor into future roster construction. With several veterans on short-term deals, the Bengals may be preparing for turnover at the position. The team now moves into Phase 2 of offseason workouts, which allows for on-field football activities without contact. Veterans are expected to gradually join the program, though attendance remains voluntary until mandatory minicamp in June. Star quarterback Joe Burrow has not yet participated in workouts, but Skinner downplayed any concern. “He's not missing anything,” Skinner said. “This is conditioning and light work. It's just not a big deal.” Attention will soon shift to the NFL schedule release, set for Thursday night. The Bengals are among teams that could be selected for an international game, with potential matchups involving Washington or Atlanta. For now, the focus remains on development — and early signs suggest the Bengals' latest draft class could provide both immediate depth and future impact.
In the late 60's a bunch of hippie communes popped up across the US, and the ideals were beautiful... but sadly shortlived and often filled with conflict because they focused on escapism instead of true collaboration. If we avoid politics as a way to resist tyranny, we may end up fostering a different form of tyranny. Similarly to the tolerance paradox: Governance can by tyrannical but so can non-governance.

It's Wednesday, May 6th, A.D. 2026. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com. I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Jonathan Clark Nigerian Muslim militias killed 9 Christians Over the past week, Muslim gunmen killed at least nine Christians in a spree of attacks across central Nigeria. Others were injured or abducted in the attacks. Fulani Ethnic Muslim Militias also destroyed nearly 100 acres of farmland. International Christian Concern stated, “Residents across affected areas are now reporting attacks on mining routes and farming communities, vital sources of income for many families. Local leaders are urgently calling for reinforced security deployments and thorough investigations into the escalating incidents.” Nigeria is ranked seventh on the Open Doors World Watch List of the most difficult countries in which to be a Christian. United Kingdom court rules in favor of 80-year-old pro-life activist A High Court judge in the United Kingdom ruled in favor of a pro-life activist last month. The case began in 2023 when David Skinner sent an email to public authorities in Dorset in South West England. The pro-lifer expressed his opposition to a new buffer zone law that restricted speech near abortion mills. He also included images of babies that had been killed in abortion. Authorities responded by charging Skinner under communications legislation. However, the recent ruling overturned that conviction. Eighty-year-old Skinner commented, “This prosecution should never have been brought. It has taken a heavy toll on me, but I hope this ruling will protect others who wish to speak out peacefully on matters of conscience without fear of being criminalized.” Proverbs 24:11 says, “Deliver those who are drawn toward death, and hold back those stumbling to the slaughter.” 75th anniversary of National Day of Prayer on May 7th Tomorrow, Thursday, May 7th, is the 75th anniversary of the National Day of Prayer in the United States. Christians are hosting tens of thousands of prayer events across the country. The day culminates in a prayer service broadcast from Statuary Hall in the U.S. Capitol at 8 p.m. Eastern Daylight Time. Many leaders are attending the event, including House Speaker Mike Johnson. Kathy Branzell, president of the National Day of Prayer Task Force, told CBN News about the theme of this year's event. Listen. BRANZELL: “Our theme this year is glorify God among the nations, seeking Him in all generations, in this 75th year and the 250th of America, even though to other nations, we might still seem like a baby. That's been a long 250 for us. But all glory to God before we get too puffed up in our patriotism and all of that we want to make sure we say, Thank You Lord, it is only by him shedding His grace on us.” The theme verse for the event is 1 Chronicles 16:24. It says, “Tell of His glory among the nations, His wonderful deeds among all the peoples.” Find a prayer event near you by typing in your zip code in the linked page. America owes more debt than it produces The Wall Street Journal reports the United States. now owes more than it produces. The national debt reached $31.265 trillion last week. Meanwhile, the country's gross domestic product, the total of the country's products and services, was $31.216 trillion over the last year. That means U.S. debt now exceeds 100% of GDP. The debt-to-GDP ratio has not been this high since the 1940s. First religious charter school in America A Christian school in Tennessee received approval for what could become the first religious charter school in the U.S. Last week, the Jackson-Madison County School Board approved a charter school application from Union University, a private Christian college. A similar attempt to create the first religious charter school failed in Oklahoma. The case went all the way to the U.S. Supreme Court last year. Southern Baptist Convention membership dropped by 3% And finally, Lifeway Research released analysis on the Southern Baptist Convention yesterday. Their membership fell by over three percent from 2024 to 2025. Total membership stands at about 12.3 million. Weekly attendance at Southern Baptist Convention churches averages nearly 4.5 million people each week. That figure is up by over three percent compared to 2024. The number of baptisms also increased last year by five percent. Jeff Iorg, President and CEO of the SBC Executive Committee, said, “We are grateful Southern Baptists continue to show growth in key metrics like baptisms, worship attendance and Bible study participation.” Close And that's The Worldview on this Wednesday, May 6th, in the year of our Lord 2026.

Why Can't I Stop Thinking About the Affair? Understanding Rumination, Triggers, and Healing After Betrayal In this important episode of the Human Intimacy Podcast, Dr. Kevin Skinner and MaryAnn Michaelis explore one of the most common and painful questions after betrayal: “Why can't I stop thinking about it?” Together, they unpack the neuroscience and emotional reality behind rumination, intrusive thoughts, PTSD responses, triggers, and nervous system dysregulation after sexual betrayal and affairs. The conversation helps both betrayed and betraying partners understand why the mind and body struggle to “move on,” even when logic says the relationship may be improving. Dr. Skinner and MaryAnn discuss how betrayal disrupts safety, attachment, and reality itself, often leaving the betrayed partner feeling emotionally flooded, hypervigilant, and stuck in repetitive thoughts. They also explain how healing requires more than simply stopping behaviors—it involves nervous system regulation, emotional attunement, compassion, consistency, and deeper relational repair. Listeners will also learn practical tools for responding to triggers, including grounding exercises, journaling, movement-based trauma release, self-attunement, parts work, emotional regulation, and therapeutic approaches such as EMDR and ART. This episode offers hope, validation, and practical guidance for anyone struggling with intrusive thoughts after betrayal trauma.

EPISODE 410 Ayden-Grifton BSB Coach Corey Skinner talks state playoffs on PRL by Pirate Radio 92.7FM Greenville
Doug sits down with Robert Bortins, CEO of Classical Conversations and co-author of Woke and Weaponized: How Karl Marx Won the Battle for American Education and How We Can Win It Back. The conversation moves from Robert's personal homeschooling story to the philosophical roots of classical Christian education, then traces how collectivist thinkers — from Robert Owen to Horace Mann to John Dewey to B.F. Skinner — engineered the modern American school system to separate children from their families and undermine Christian and libertarian foundations. Robert makes the case that compulsory government schooling is incompatible with both Scripture and liberty, and offers practical first steps for parents ready to walk away from it.Audio Production by Podsworth Media - https://podsworth.com Use code LCI50 for 50% off your first order at Podsworth.com to clean up your voice recordings and also support LCI!Full Podsworth Ad Read BEFORE & AFTER processing:https://youtu.be/vbsOEODpQGs ★ Support this podcast ★

The Bengals' 2026 NFL Draft reflected a clear strategy: build depth, target high-upside players and continue reshaping the roster around a strengthened defensive front. Cincinnati entered the draft without a first-round pick after trading for defensive tackle Dexter Lawrence, then used seven selections over the final two days. Local 12 digital sports columnist and editor Richard Skinner said the approach showed a focus on long-term development and roster balance. “I thought they did it. I thought it was really good,” Skinner said. “There was sound reasoning behind probably every pick.” The Bengals' top selections came on Day 2, when they drafted edge rusher Cashius Howell out of Texas A&M and cornerback Tacario Davis from Washington. Both are viewed as potential contributors, though Howell may begin as part of a deep rotation on the defensive line. “I like the player. I'm not so sure I love the pick,” Skinner said of Howell. “He's technically your fourth edge rusher at the moment.” The defensive line overhaul has been a central theme this offseason, with Cincinnati adding Lawrence, Boye Mafe and Jonathan Allen to create a deeper, more disruptive unit. "I think (the Bengals) got their value in Dexter Lawrence," said Mike Petraglia from CLNS Media. "I think that they addressed other things in this draft, in terms of their depth and the ability to have some added playmakers on defense. Looking back on it eight days later, I like the Dexter Lawrence move." The Bengals also addressed offensive line depth, selecting center Connor Lew in the fourth round and versatile lineman Brian Parker II in the sixth. “I think the value of this pick is just off the charts,” Skinner said of Lew, noting the 20-year-old's experience and upside. At wide receiver, Cincinnati added Colbie Young, a physically gifted prospect with limited college production. Skinner called the pick a traits-based gamble. “The traits are off the charts,” he said. “I just can't overlook the lack of production.” Day 3 selections focused on depth and developmental players, including tight end Jack Endries and Navy defensive tackle Landon Robinson. Skinner said Endries' competitive mindset stood out, recalling that the draftee said he would make every team that didn't draft him pay. Overall, Skinner graded the Bengals' draft an A-minus, citing a mix of immediate contributors and long-term prospects. "There is a high ceiling for all these guys. That's, I think the exciting part is these guys have a chance to, to take things to a whole different level," he said. "Literally every one of them, all the way down to, to Landon Robinson, the last pick they made at defensive tackle, there's a high ceiling for all these guys." "Here's another reason you get aggressive in free agency going into the draft," said Petraglia. "It allows you, I think, to take more chances on guys with higher ceilings, because if they don't work out, you do have, you address something else via free agency that presumably, uh, similar or the exact same position -- and I think the Bengals did that. I think they were more aggressive in free agency. They took a chance on higher end or guys with higher ceilings. Let's say that, put it that way. And I like that. I like that approach for a team that is trying to get more aggressive in that window with Joe Burrow." The Bengals may still look to add a veteran linebacker after the draft, as the position remains a question mark heading into the 2026 season.
