Spring Cleaning – Edmonton OilersThe Edmonton Oilers entered the 2025-26 season with one objective: return to the Stanley Cup Final and finish the job after consecutive championship losses to the Florida Panthers. Instead, Edmonton endured an inconsistent season that ended with a first-round playoff exit at the hands of the Anaheim Ducks. Neil Smith and Vic Morren examine the roster decisions that left the Oilers without enough depth, the goaltending gamble that backfired, and the enormous offseason facing General Manager Stan Bowman as the organization works to convince Connor McDavid that another championship run remains within reach.IN THIS EPISODE:[00:00:00] The Oilers finish second in the Pacific Division before suffering a shocking first-round playoff elimination against Anaheim. Neil and Vic discuss why anything short of another Stanley Cup Final appearance was considered a disappointment after Edmonton's back-to-back championship appearances.[00:00:45] Edmonton's offseason departures—including Corey Perry, Evander Kane, and Connor Brown—leave the roster noticeably thinner. Combined with Zach Hyman missing the opening 19 games of the season, the Oilers struggle to replace valuable secondary scoring throughout the year.[00:01:30] The panel examines how the emotional and physical toll of consecutive Stanley Cup Final losses affected Edmonton's season. Despite another slow start that initially appeared familiar, the Oilers never found the momentum that had fueled previous playoff runs.[00:02:00] The conversation shifts to one of the season's most controversial moves as Stan Bowman trades Stuart Skinner to Pittsburgh for Tristan Jarry. Neil and Vic break down the disappointing results after Jarry struggles badly while Skinner performs better with the Penguins, making the trade one of the NHL's biggest disappointments.[00:03:30] Edmonton's increasing dependence on Connor McDavid and Leon Draisaitl becomes impossible to ignore. The panel reviews how nearly one-third of the club's offense comes from its two superstars while the number of secondary contributors continues to decline, placing enormous pressure on the league's best players.[00:05:00] Ryan Nugent-Hopkins' role is discussed as Neil describes him as an invaluable all-around player rather than an elite offensive producer. The conversation also highlights encouraging development from young forwards Matt Savoie and Vasily Podkolzin while acknowledging the continued lack of consistent secondary scoring.[00:07:00] Attention turns to Stan Bowman's difficult offseason. Questions surround head coach Kris Knoblauch's future, while Connor McDavid's contract extension becomes one of the biggest storylines facing the organization after both McDavid and Draisaitl publicly acknowledged the team took a step backward during the season.[00:09:00] The Oilers enter the offseason over the salary cap with only four selections in the 2026 NHL Draft after several aggressive trades. Neil and Vic review the organization's pending unrestricted free agents, including Adam Henrique, Jason Dickinson, Jack Roslovic, Kasperi Kapanen, Connor Murphy, and goaltender Connor Ingram.[00:11:00] The discussion centers on Edmonton's challenge of attracting quality free agents while uncertainty surrounds Connor McDavid's long-term future. Neil believes the opportunity to play alongside McDavid and Leon Draisaitl remains a major selling point despite questions about the organization's direction.[00:13:00] The episode concludes with a look ahead to 2026-27. Neil warns that unless Edmonton significantly improves its depth and solves its ongoing goaltending concerns, the Oilers risk taking another step backward despite employing two of the greatest players in the world.

Why Do I Still Feel Stuck? Understanding the Hidden Barriers to Healing After Betrayal Episode Summary One of the most common questions betrayed partners ask is, "Why do I still feel stuck?" Despite reading books, attending therapy, participating in support groups, and listening to countless podcasts, many people feel like they aren't making the progress they expected. In this episode, Dr. Kevin Skinner and MaryAnn Michaelis explore why feeling "stuck" is often a normal part of the healing process rather than a sign of failure. They discuss how trauma symptoms, incomplete disclosure, unresolved questions, unrealistic expectations, and misplaced responsibility can all interfere with recovery. The conversation also highlights the difference between individual healing and relational healing, emphasizing that while a relationship may temporarily feel stuck, an individual does not have to remain there. Dr. Skinner and MaryAnn explain how healthy boundaries, differentiation, trauma-informed therapy, support groups, and compassionate communication create the conditions for lasting progress. Listeners will also learn why healing is a journey rather than an event, why comparing your progress to someone else's can be harmful, and how small intentional steps toward joy, self-awareness, and personal growth often become the turning points that move people forward. Whether you are the betrayed partner, the partner seeking recovery, or a clinician walking alongside couples, this episode offers practical guidance and hope for navigating one of the most discouraging stages of betrayal recovery. Key Takeaways Feeling stuck is often a normal part of betrayal trauma recovery. Healing is a journey, not a single event or milestone. Trauma symptoms such as intrusive thoughts, triggers, nightmares, and hypervigilance often improve gradually—not immediately. Full therapeutic disclosure often becomes a major turning point in healing. You cannot control another person's recovery or prevent someone else's relapse. Healthy boundaries focus on your response rather than controlling another person's behavior. Differentiation builds confidence by helping you act consistently with your own values. Trauma-informed therapies such as EMDR, Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART), and Internal Family Systems (IFS) can significantly assist healing. Support groups and trusted relationships provide essential stability when a partner cannot yet respond with empathy. Recovery grows through self-awareness, compassion, patience, and small daily steps rather than perfection.

En este episodio, Miguel conversa con Janet sobre la conducta verbal desde una perspectiva práctica y cultural. A lo largo de la conversación, exploran por qué la conducta verbal sigue siendo una de las áreas más importantes —y a veces más incomprendidas— dentro del análisis de conducta y la educación. Janet comparte su trayectoria como latina, educadora, investigadora y líder en múltiples iniciativas dentro del campo, así como su experiencia trabajando con comunidades bilingües y culturalmente diversas. Juntos discuten conceptos fundamentales de la conducta verbal, diferencias entre el enfoque de Skinner y la lingüística tradicional, y cómo la motivación, la función y el contexto transforman la manera en que entendemos la comunicación. El episodio también aborda temas esenciales como el acceso a formación en español, los retos de trabajar con herramientas centradas en el inglés y la necesidad de desarrollar prácticas verdaderamente culturalmente responsivas. Además, conversan sobre iniciativas en América Latina, mentoría para nuevos analistas de conducta, investigación aplicada y el futuro de la conducta verbal en comunidades hispanohablantes. Una conversación profunda, accesible y relevante para analistas de conducta, educadores, terapeutas, estudiantes y familias interesadas en comprender la comunicación desde una perspectiva más funcional, humana y contextualizada. Verbal Behavior: Culture, Context, and Functional Communication In this episode, Miguel speaks with Janet about verbal behavior from a practical and cultural perspective. Throughout the conversation, they explore why verbal behavior continues to be one of the most important — and sometimes misunderstood — areas within behavior analysis and education. Janet shares her journey as a Latina educator, researcher, and leader across multiple initiatives in the field, as well as her experience working with bilingual and culturally diverse communities. Together, they discuss foundational concepts in verbal behavior, differences between Skinner's approach and traditional linguistics, and how motivation, function, and context shape the way we understand communication. The episode also addresses key topics such as access to verbal behavior training in Spanish, challenges associated with English-centered tools and terminology, and the importance of culturally responsive practices.

A thoughtful, accessible, and highly relevant conversation for behavior analysts, educators, therapists, students, and families interested in understanding communication through a more functional, humane, and contextualized lens.

Most of what competes for your attention today isn't winning on the strength of its ideas — it's winning on the strength of its engineering. Apps built on variable reward, infinite scroll, and algorithmic feeds are designed to keep you holding them, not to serve you and let you put them down. In this solo episode, Brett Ingram traces how that design shapes a life one unnoticed moment at a time, and offers a way back to it that isn't another productivity system: noticing where your attention actually goes, and choosing more often than not. What You'll Learn in This Episode The real difference between a tool you pick up and a system built to keep you holding it — and why that distinction is a business model, not a conspiracy theory How "variable reward" (the psychology behind slot machines and the pull-to-refresh gesture) keeps you scrolling even when you don't expect to find anything Why a life is never stolen all at once — it's surrendered in increments too small to notice, remember, or regret What "attention residue" is, and why switching tasks leaves part of your mind working on the thing you left behind Why clock time and lived time aren't the same thing, and what the research says about how often minds wander — and what that costs in happiness The difference between rumination and genuine reflection, and why they can look identical from the outside A single 24-hour practice for starting to reclaim attention, with no apps deleted and no digital detox required Episode Timestamps [00:00] Cold open — the question almost no one can answer [01:00] What the attention economy actually sells [02:30] Variable reward — the psychology behind the pull-to-refresh [04:30] The small fragments that quietly become a life [07:30] Attention residue and what constant capture does to your inner life [11:00] Attention as the real unit of time [14:30] Reclaiming attention without turning it into another performance [18:00] Closing synthesis and the one practice to try today Episode Summary There's a difference between a tool you pick up and a system built to keep you holding it. A hammer doesn't care whether you put it down. A lot of the platforms on your phone are designed, quite deliberately, to care very much — and that's not a conspiracy theory, it's a business model. For a huge share of the digital products people use every day, the actual customer isn't the user, it's the advertiser. What's being sold isn't a product or a service — it's attention, harvested, measured, and resold. That framing, drawn from Tim Wu's book The Attention Merchants, is the starting point for this episode: not a takedown of any single company, but an honest look at what happens to a life when other people and other systems get to keep deciding, moment after moment, what enters your awareness. The mechanism at the center of it is called variable reward. Decades ago, psychologist B.F. Skinner found that a reward arriving on an unpredictable schedule is far more compelling than one arriving on a predictable one — an animal or a person pulling a lever for an uncertain payout will pull it more, and stop less, than one working for a reward it can count on. That's the same mechanism behind a slot machine, and it's the same mechanism behind pull-to-refresh: you don't know if the next scroll holds something interesting, and that's exactly why you keep scrolling. Brett draws a parallel to something a dog trainer once told him — the "jackpot mechanism," where varying the size of a reward (one treat, one treat, then suddenly a handful) keeps a dog working harder than a consistent reward ever would. Feeds run on the same principle, minus the treats. None of this makes the design automatically sinister — plenty of genuinely useful tools use similar hooks, and companies vary widely in how aggressively they lean on it. But the deeper issue isn't that these tools exist; it's that very few people ever agreed, out loud, to the terms. And the cost shows up in pieces too small to register as losses: checking a phone without deciding to, reaching for stimulation before a thought can finish forming, being physically present somewhere while mentally somewhere else entirely. "A life is not stolen all at once," Brett says. "It's surrendered in tiny, forgettable increments — and forgettable is the operative word, because you can't grieve what you don't remember losing." He points to The Truman Show, where Christof's line — "We accept the reality of the world with which we're presented, it's as simple as that" — captures the idea exactly, and to Idiocracy as an exaggerated but uncomfortably familiar picture of what happens when everything is delivered and nothing requires effort. The episode's second half turns inward, connecting attention to what your inner life actually needs to function. Researcher Sophie Leroy's concept of "attention residue" shows that switching away from an unfinished task leaves part of the mind working on it in the background, so the next task gets a smaller, more distracted version of your attention than it otherwise would. Separate research on workplace interruptions found that refocusing after a disruption can take considerably longer than the disruption itself. And a widely cited real-time study by Killingsworth and Gilbert found that people's minds wander nearly half of the time — and that mind-wandering, regardless of the activity, was associated with lower happiness than simply being present with whatever was actually in front of them. That's the reframe at the center of the episode: clock time and lived time aren't the same thing. You can technically possess an hour and never inhabit it. Attention management asks a different question than time management — not "how do I fit more in," but "where am I, actually, when I'm here?" Rather than prescribing a digital detox or a five-step system, Brett offers a different orientation: notice before restricting, learn to name the difference between chosen and captured attention, protect small transitions in the day, and treat boredom as something to tolerate rather than immediately fill. The practice he leaves listeners with is deliberately small — pick one ordinary moment of waiting in the next 24 hours and let it be boring, just to prove you can survive an unfilled minute. As he puts it near the close: "Your attention is the only material your life is actually made of. Everything else is just what you built with it."

The attention economy is the business model behind most free digital products: rather than the user being the customer, the user's attention is the product, harvested and sold to advertisers. It explains why so many apps are engineered to maximize time-on-platform rather than simply being useful and letting you move on. What is "variable reward" and why does it make apps so hard to put down? Variable reward is a psychological principle, first documented by B.F. Skinner, showing that rewards on an unpredictable schedule drive far more persistent behavior than rewards on a predictable one. It's the same mechanism behind a slot machine, and it's built into features like pull-to-refresh and algorithmic feeds — you keep scrolling because you don't know if the next scroll holds something interesting. What is attention residue? Attention residue, a concept from researcher Sophie Leroy, describes how part of your focus stays behind on a task you've switched away from, especially if it was left unfinished. That means the next task gets a smaller, more distracted share of your attention than it would have otherwise — and the effect compounds every time attention gets pulled and pulled back throughout a day. Does mind-wandering actually make people less happy? Research by Killingsworth and Gilbert, tracking people in real time throughout their days, found minds wandered in nearly half of sampled moments — and that mind-wandering was associated with lower reported happiness than staying present with whatever activity was actually happening, even when that activity was mundane. It's a correlational finding, but it's a strong one. Do I need to do a digital detox to fix this? No. The episode explicitly pushes back on delete-the-apps, get-a-flip-phone solutions, arguing that a structural, cultural problem can't be solved through sheer personal discipline alone. The approach offered instead is about noticing where attention defaults to, naming the difference between chosen and captured attention, and making small environmental changes — not achieving perfect, monk-like focus. What's the difference between rumination and genuine reflection? They can look identical from the outside, but they function very differently. Rumination is a stuck loop of worry that replays without resolving anything. Genuine reflection is structured, curious attention toward your own experience aimed at actually processing something and reaching a conclusion. What's one thing I can do today to start reclaiming my attention? Pick one ordinary moment of waiting in the next 24 hours — a red light, a line, the kettle boiling — and let it be boring. Don't reach for anything to fill it. The exercise is deliberately small: it's not about fixing your entire relationship with attention at once, just proving to yourself that you can survive an unfilled minute.

Third-party litigation funding has grown into a major part of modern civil litigation. Supporters argue it expands access to justice and helps under-resourced plaintiffs challenge powerful defendants. Critics argue it can distort litigation incentives, empower foreign or opaque funders, and undermine attorney-client control of litigation. As state legislatures and Congress consider restrictions and disclosure requirements, how should policymakers balance transparency, donor privacy, access to courts, national security, and attorney ethics? Is third-party litigation funding a threat to the integrity of the civil justice system that conservatives should rein in, or a market mechanism that conservatives should protect as a counterweight to institutional lawfare? Can the foreign-adversary money problem be severed from the broader regulatory question? Join us for a discussion of these and other issues surrounding the financing of litigation.

Differentiation: Staying Connected Without Losing Yourself Episode Summary Healthy relationships require both deep connection and a strong sense of self. In this episode, Dr. Kevin Skinner and MaryAnn Michaelis explore the concept of differentiation—the ability to remain emotionally connected to your partner while maintaining your own identity, values, emotions, and personal responsibility. The discussion examines how betrayal trauma often leads couples toward emotional enmeshment, where one partner's emotions, behaviors, or recovery begin to consume the other person's identity. Dr. Skinner explains why healing is not about becoming emotionally detached, but about developing the capacity to remain present with a partner's pain without becoming overwhelmed by it. Listeners will learn the difference between differentiation, attunement, emotional contagion, empathy, and compassion, and why these concepts are often confused. The episode also highlights the importance of self-awareness, healthy boundaries, personal identity, and individual responsibility in creating lasting intimacy after betrayal. Rather than trying to control a partner's recovery or emotions, healing occurs when each person learns to "stay in their own lane" while intentionally nurturing the relationship they are building together. Key Topics Discussed What differentiation is—and what it is not The difference between differentiation and emotional enmeshment Attunement versus emotional contagion Why betrayal trauma often causes partners to lose themselves Developing greater self-awareness and personal identity Healthy boundaries and personal responsibility The relationship between empathy and compassion Learning to stay in your own lane while remaining emotionally connected Caring for yourself without disconnecting from your partner Building a relationship where two healthy individuals create lasting intimacy together Resources If today's conversation resonated with you, we invite you to explore the many resources available through Human Intimacy.

Lamar Skinner is an honest man. He is unafraid to publicly be vulnerable about his past and is on a mission to help other men. He's also a fantastic Couse deer hunter in Arizona! He started a movement called Rebuild the Man and joins me this week to discuss it.   In this episode, Lamar and I discuss deer hunting, specifically the differences between Couse, Whitetail, and Mule deer hunting as well as some of the differences in hunting various terrain features. We dive into the distortion that happens through social media and it's impact on normal hunters versus the stress created by people who only post large animals. It's becoming more about taking trophies for Instagram than the fulfillment and stuffed freezers that most hunters seek. Then, we dive into Lamar's platform, Rebuild the Man, and how he came about to leading this mission and why he wants to help other men get to where he's at. It's a solid discussion and I think people are going to get a lot out of.

How to Deal with Getting Cheated On: The First Steps Toward Healing After Betrayal Podcast Summary What do you do after discovering your partner has cheated? Where do you even begin? In this episode of the Human Intimacy Podcast, Dr. Kevin Skinner and MaryAnn Michaelis tackle one of the most painful questions a person can ask: How do I deal with getting cheated on? Rather than offering quick fixes or encouraging you to simply "move on," they explain why infidelity often creates a genuine trauma response—and why healing begins with stabilization and safety before rebuilding trust or repairing a relationship. Drawing from decades of clinical experience and current research on betrayal trauma, Dr. Skinner and MaryAnn discuss why your mind and body react the way they do after discovering infidelity and outline the first steps toward recovery. In this episode, you'll learn: Why discovering infidelity often feels like psychological trauma. How betrayal affects your nervous system, sleep, appetite, and emotions. Why hypervigilance, anxiety, and intrusive thoughts are normal trauma responses. The difference between emotional stabilization and relationship repair. Practical ways to begin caring for yourself after discovery. Why safety looks different for the betrayed partner and the partner who acted out. The importance of finding trusted support instead of trying to heal alone. How the Intimacy Repair Method (IRM) provides a roadmap for healing after betrayal. Whether your discovery happened days ago or years ago, this conversation offers validation, hope, and practical guidance to help you begin moving forward. Resources Mentioned

‘The beautiful game has never looked more beautiful on the pitch, or more ugly off it,' Simon Skinner writes in the latest LRB. Each World Cup seems more tainted by corruption than the last, but is that a nostalgic illusion? The second competition, held in Italy in 1934, was a podium for Mussolini and, as Skinner puts it, ‘an early advertisement of the tournament's potential service to politically repressive hosts' that has continued through the years to Russia 2018, Qatar 2022 and the ‘Fifa-MAGA pageant' of 2026. In this episode Simon Skinner and Natasha Chahal join Tom to talk about the long relationship between football and politics and why Roberto Baggio can offer us no consolation.

Rien ne semble plus difficile que d'instaurer de nouvelles habitudes dans notre vie. Même s'il est rempli d'intentions louables, l'être humain est toujours porté à revenir à ce qui lui semble le plus évident, attrayant, facile et satisfaisant. Pour cette raison, il va être porté à privilégier ce qui lui procure un bienfait immédiat plutôt que ce qui va lui être profitable à long terme. James Clear avec son ouvrage Atomic Habits de 2018 qui s'est écoulé à plus de 25 millions d'exemplaires nous propose une solution accessible et pratique. Arrêtons de viser les gros changements qui finissent par nous décourager et nous épuiser, mais misons plutôt sur les mini habitudes. Les mini habitudes semblent anodines sur leur coup car leur portée semble limitée, mais c'est à la longue que leur effet se ressent vraiment. C'est exactement le même principe de l'intérêt composé dans des placements financiers. Comme l'expression le dit : allons-y lentement mais sûrement. Ici, le mot atomique a deux sens. Atomique comme dans extrêmement petit, mais atomique aussi comme puissance atomique! James Clear en est venu à instaurer une série d'outils applicables dans l'atteinte de nos objectifs en s'inspirant assez librement de l'approche béhavioriste de Skinner qui avait déjà inspiré l'ouvrage le pouvoir des habitudes en 2012. Dans cet épisode, en voulant appliquer le livre à l'atteinte de mes objectifs de 2026, j'en viens à des prises de conscience importantes chez moi. Je me permets de me montrer critique sur certains aspects de Atomic Habits. Cet épisode me sert aussi de bilan concernant mon deuxième trimestre d'entraînement physique. Je rappelle qu'au début de l'année 2026, j'ai pris l'engagement de publier régulièrement un épisode pour témoigner de mon expérience. Voici donc le journal de bord du deuxième trimestre : avril, mai et juin. Il s'avère donc la suite de l'épisode 206 qui abordait le premier trimestre.

Joe Burrow believes the Bengals have assembled a championship-caliber roster, and now he's making sure everyone in the locker room feels the same sense of urgency. That was one of the biggest takeaways from Burrow's final media session before the Bengals broke for the summer following mandatory minicamp. Local 12 digital sports columnist and editor Richard Skinner and Mike Petraglia from CLNS Media discussed on their recent podcast how Burrow appeared more confident, relaxed and focused than he has in recent offseasons, a reflection of both the roster Cincinnati has built and the expectations that come with it. Burrow told reporters Wednesday that he's tried to become a tougher leader this offseason, how it's out of his comfort zone but somewhere that he's improving. Bengals offensive coordinator Dan Pitcher later offered a different description, calling Burrow "blunt" when giving feedback to his teammates. Burrow's comments came as the Bengals wrapped up an offseason program that coach Zac Taylor considered productive enough to cancel the final two scheduled practice days of minicamp. Taylor's decision effectively gave players an early start to their summer break, something Skinner viewed as a reward for a roster that showed up, stayed healthy and embraced the offseason program. "I think that's kind of a little pat on the back to say, 'Yeah, you guys put in a lot of good work,'" Skinner said on the podcast. The Bengals also avoided the contract disputes and distractions that dominated previous offseasons. Unlike last year, when first-round pick Shemar Stewart had not yet signed, the team's focus remained almost entirely on football. That focus appears to start with Burrow. Both Skinner and Petraglia noted Burrow repeatedly stayed after practice throughout the offseason to throw extra passes and work on mechanics. Even after minicamp concluded, Burrow spent additional time throwing and lifting weights. "I just think that he realizes that this is the time to win now," Skinner said. "This is the best roster they've had since the 2021 and 2022 teams, and you don't want to waste it." Burrow echoed that belief Wednesday when he compared his feelings about the 2026 Bengals to the confidence he felt before LSU's national championship season in 2019. "Given how the Bengals have restructured the roster, I don't see how going into the season, going into training camp in late July and August, how it could be set up any better," said Petraglia. Perhaps the most revealing moment came when Burrow discussed pressure. The Bengals enter the season with expectations as high as they've been since their Super Bowl run in 2021, and Burrow made it clear he's embracing them. Skinner said Burrow's demeanor during a 25-minute media session reflected a player who believes the Bengals are positioned to contend immediately. "He looked about as relaxed and confident as I've seen him in a couple of years," Petraglia said. "I just got this quiet sense of confidence from Burrow that he's finally going into a summer break of four or five weeks before they reconvene in late July, that he has a better idea of what this team could really do this year." The Bengals report to training camp in late July, carrying the weight of heightened expectations and a quarterback who appears eager to embrace them.

How Do We Create Safety in a Relationship? 10 Keys to Rebuilding Trust and Connection In this episode of the Human Intimacy Podcast, Dr. Kevin Skinner and MaryAnn Michaelis explore one of the most important questions couples can ask themselves: “How do we create safety in a relationship?” Drawing from attachment theory, betrayal trauma recovery, and clinical experience, they discuss how safety is not simply a thought or belief—it is a physiological experience that occurs when the nervous system feels secure enough to relax, connect, and trust. The conversation examines how unresolved wounds, betrayal, childhood experiences, and past traumas can disrupt a person's sense of safety and create hypervigilance, fear, and emotional distance. Dr. Skinner and MaryAnn explain why repairing safety requires more than good intentions; it requires consistent actions that help both partners feel seen, understood, and protected. The episode outlines 10 practical ways couples can create safety, including accountability, humility, recovery work, emotional openness, compassion, vulnerability, communication skills, and attunement. Listeners are invited to reflect on what safety feels like in their own bodies, identify unresolved experiences that may still be influencing their relationships, and consider the specific behaviors that help foster trust and connection. Whether rebuilding after betrayal or strengthening an existing relationship, this episode offers a framework for understanding safety as the foundation of healing, intimacy, and secure attachment. Key Takeaways Safety is experienced through the nervous system before it is experienced cognitively. Unresolved wounds often create hypervigilance and make trust more difficult. Betrayal recovery requires intentional efforts to rebuild safety through actions, not promises. Couples can strengthen safety by practicing accountability, compassion, vulnerability, and attunement. Understanding what safety feels like physically can help individuals recognize when they are moving toward or away from connection. Creating safety is a skill that both partners can learn and practice over time.

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

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.

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.

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. Subscribe, share this with a coworker, and help make sure injured officers are never left to fight alone.Support the showemail us at- bluegrit@tmpa.org

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

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.

Joined this week by Lamar Skinner. Lamar opens up about the battle that nearly kept him stuck — addiction to pornography, self-doubt, shame, and constantly making excuses for the man he had become. He shares the real moments that forced him to take ownership of his life, including a simple moment on a lawn mower where he realized nobody was coming to save him and change had to start with him.We dive deep into what it actually takes to break destructive habits, face the truth head-on, and build standards that don't bend when life gets hard. Lamar talks about leaning into faith, embracing discipline, and becoming the type of man who leads himself first so he can lead others well.This conversation is raw, honest, and packed with perspective for any man who knows he's capable of more but feels stuck in the cycle of comfort, shame, or inconsistency.

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.
