If you've ever wondered what it feels like when real energy moves through you, this bonus episode is your chance to find out. In this special standalone release, we're bringing you the full healing session from our recent interview with Benton Ryer, the mystic healer and Ko Shinto practitioner whose ancient Japanese energy work has left audiences around the world in awe. During our main episode, Benton guided us through a powerful live purification and energy clearing ritual, chanting in the ancient language of Shinto, calling on sacred forces of balance and renewal. The experience was so profound, we decided to release it separately so that you can participate in your own space, in your own time. This is not a typical Skeptic Metaphysicians episode. There's no banter, no interview, just you, your breath, and the sacred resonance of a healing transmission that transcends words. So find a quiet spot, close your eyes, and allow yourself to receive. What You'll ExperienceA full-length guided energy clearing led by Benton RyerAncient Shinto purification chants for vibrational alignmentDeep energetic release through sound and intentionA sense of peace, expansion, and recalibration that continues long after the session endsAbout Benton Ryer Benton Ryer is an author, sorcerer, and practitioner of Ko Shinto, a nearly lost form of Japanese shamanism focused on energetic purification. Known online as bentonthemage, his nightly YouTube healings have transformed lives worldwide. He's also the author of The Shores of Eternity: A Memoir of Sorcery, which chronicles his journey into the unseen world and the ancient spiritual practices that continue to shape his life and work. Benton believes that healing is not magic, it's remembrance. And this session is your invitation to remember.How to Prepare Before you hit play, we recommend:Finding a comfortable place to lie down or sit quietlyTurning off notifications or distractionsAllowing yourself to breathe deeply and surrenderSetting the simple intention: “I am open to receive.”Benton has assured us that this energy will reach you no matter when—or how many times—you listen.If You Feel the Shift… After the session, we'd love to hear what you experienced.

Davey is a pastor, author, and podcast host who shares his story of healing and redemption following the tragic murder of his wife. Today we're ending our series on Finding God in thin places. In this week's episode, we're discussing the topic: I Can't See God Right Now. Heather shares about the word faith—and how it isn't about certainty but choosing to believe what you cannot see. Join host Heather Thompson Day and submission specialist Haley Hoskins for a conversation on what it looks like to seek God when He feels distant. In Day in the Bible, Heather reflects on 1 Kings 19, where Elijah performs a great miracle. Have a story to share? Email us at whatifimwrongpod@gmail.com.

Yo Aunteas are joined once again by Brian Sims — activist, former Pennsylvania State Representative, and CEO of Agenda PAC. Brian breaks down how Agenda PAC is using AI to identify and defeat the most dangerous bigots in America, why local elections matter more than ever, and how queer communities can reignite political hope amid burnout and misinformation. The group gets real about why the Democratic party refuses to "play dirty", and Brian delivers a sharp call to action for allies—especially white gay men—who have been conspicuously silent while our rights are under attack. Of course, the Aunteas also serve the cultural tea, breaking down the drama behind Brandy walking off stage during the long-awaited Brandy & Monica tour. Finally, Brian returns for "Curiositea Part Two" , sharing his hobbies, his Drag Race Mount Rushmore , and the sweet story behind the last song he played .

What happens when a group of filmmakers play a ragtag group of filmmakers in a gritty sci-fi horror? "Ignite the fire within and explore unknown territory” - Werner Herzog. This episode is unusual, even by Draft Zero standards. It's an “Actual Play Podcast” where Chas, Stu, & Mel are joined by Kim Ho and Luke Clarke to play MOTHERSHIP, the sci-fi horror game we talked about in episodes DZ-121 and DZ-122. Stu is the GM while everyone else is a ragtag crew of freelance filmmakers. We debrief the experience (so far) at the end of the episode) Mel plays Zara, the glamorous face of the operation. Chas plays Winston, the cynical and egoistical “photojournalist”. Kim is Cal, the scrappy scrounger and sound recordists, while Luke is Tarsos the steadfast producer of the group. The crew are enlisted to record a sensationalist report on a missing corporate president before the mercenary retrieval team arrives. And yeah, this means we're soft-launching yet another project that's called 1d0, which looks at how we can use tools from ttrpgs in screenwriting… and vice versa.

1. Christian Persecution in Nigeria Senator Cruz highlights what he describes as a massive and underreported crisis involving the persecution of Christians in Nigeria. Key points include: Over 50,000 Christians killed since 2009. 18,000 churches and 2,000 schools burned, allegedly by extremist groups like Boko Haram and ISIS in West Africa. Accusations that some Nigerian government officials are complicit or negligent in addressing the violence. Cruz has introduced legislation to designate Nigeria as a “Country of Particular Concern” and impose sanctions on individual officials involved in or ignoring the persecution. He criticizes the mainstream media for failing to cover the issue adequately. Public figures like Bill Maher and Van Jones are cited as supporting the claim that this is a planned genocide and that media silence is a moral failure. 2. Christian Persecution in China This section shifts to a similar story: The Chinese Communist Party’s crackdown on Christianity, particularly targeting Pastor Jin Mingri and the Zion Church. Cruz introduced a bipartisan resolution with Senator Chris Coons condemning China’s actions and urging the release of imprisoned pastors. He emphasizes the need for economic and diplomatic pressure, especially with President Trump’s upcoming meeting with President Xi Jinping. The resolution calls for respect for religious freedom and highlights China’s long-standing designation as a “Country of Particular Concern” by the U.S. Commission on International Religious Freedom. 3. DOJ Surveillance of Republican Senators Cruz discusses revelations that: The Biden DOJ and Special Counsel Jack Smith subpoenaed phone records of nine Republican senators and one House member in connection with the January 6 investigation. Cruz’s phone records were requested from AT&T, but the company refused to comply, citing constitutional protections under the Speech and Debate Clause. He frames this as political persecution and a dangerous abuse of power, likening it to Watergate. He calls for Congressional hearings and transparency to prevent future surveillance of elected officials. Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.

NASA's Artemis Woes, Chinese Debris, and Global Space Industry Shifts. Bob Zimmerman discusses NASA's Artemis program, noting Administrator Sean Duffy is using a social media feud with Elon Musk as a "shiny object" to distract from the Orion capsule's untrustworthy heat shield risks. Other space issues include China's dangerous rocket debris crashes, some using highly toxic fuels, and European satellite companies consolidating into Project Bromo due to competition. Zimmerman also highlights the discovery of a large asteroid orbiting near Venus and Lockheed Martin's investment in Venus Aerospace's radical rocket engine design.

1. Government Shutdown and Federal Worker Pay The episode opens with a discussion of a government shutdown, referred to as the “Schumer shutdown.” Senator Cruz criticizes Democrats for voting against legislation that would have paid essential federal workers during the shutdown. He highlights specific Democratic senators who voted in favor (Warnock, Ossoff, Fetterman) and criticizes the rest for voting against it. Cruz emphasizes the impact on TSA agents, air traffic controllers, and military personnel, warning of potential travel disruptions and national security risks. He also notes that members of Congress continue to receive pay during the shutdown, though he claims to have requested his own pay be withheld. 2. Rise of Antisemitism on the Right Cruz expresses concern about increasing antisemitism within conservative circles, particularly among younger people. He recounts his speech at a Christians United for Israel event, where he warned about the dangers of ignoring antisemitism on the right. He criticizes both the left and right for harboring antisemitic sentiments, but emphasizes a recent rise on the right. Cruz calls on church leaders and conservatives to actively oppose antisemitism and support Israel, citing national security interests and moral obligations. 3. Opposition to Ambassador Nominee Amer Ghalib Cruz discusses his opposition to Amer Ghalib, a nominee for U.S. Ambassador to Kuwait. He criticizes Ghalib’s past statements, including praise for the Muslim Brotherhood and controversial social media activity. Cruz argues that Ghalib’s views are incompatible with U.S. foreign policy and President Trump’s positions, particularly regarding Israel and the Abraham Accords. He predicts that the nomination will likely be withdrawn due to bipartisan concerns. 4. Religious Persecution in China The podcast concludes with a segment on the persecution of Christians in China, particularly the arrest of Pastor Jin Mingri and members of the Zion Church. Cruz condemns the Chinese Communist Party’s actions and calls for the U.S. to use diplomatic and economic pressure to advocate for religious freedom. He emphasizes the importance of the U.S. standing up for persecuted religious minorities globally. Cruz expresses hope that President Trump will raise the issue during an upcoming meeting with Chinese President Xi Jinping.

Glenn Beck Exposes No Kings Plot: This IS a Color Revolution! A new wave of No Kings protests kicked off across the country on October 18. Organizers claimed a whopping seven million people spontaneously rallied to protest President Trump's authoritarian policies. While many mocked white-haired Boomers holding absurd signs, the strategists behind color revolutions know the precise percentage of population involvement needed for a successful coup — and they're inching closer to that goal on American soil. Glenn Beck and renowned researcher Peter Schweizer trace the shadowy multimillion-dollar funding behind No Kings, revealing the who's who in left-wing activism: Tides, Soros, Rockefeller, Ford, Buffett, and Arabella. Peter's team at Government Accountability Institute uncovered a network infrastructure bigger than No Kings designed to create social destabilization. The evidence trail is there, but can Trump's FBI and DOJ stop the revolutionaries before it's too late?

This week, Melanie sits down with psychiatrist Dr. Adriana Stacey to discuss new research showing how social media use in adolescence may be changing the way our kids think.Most parents know that excessive screen time can impact mood and sleep, but Dr. Stacey explains how it goes much deeper — affecting attention, memory, and even language development. Together, they explore what's happening inside the adolescent brain, why even “moderate” social media use can interfere with learning, and what parents can do to protect cognitive growth during these crucial years.You'll also hear the story of one teen whose focus and motivation began to unravel with increased online use — and how simple changes helped restore his ability to think clearly and engage again in real life.Key Takeaways:How social media overstimulates the brain's reward systemWhy cognitive performance may decline even with moderate useThe “opportunity cost” of screen time — what our kids lose when they scrollPractical steps for helping teens build stronger focus and healthier habitsIf you've ever wondered whether your child's smartphone is interfering with their ability to think, focus, and learn, this episode is for you.Access FREE "Undoing Choices" DownloadSupport the showDon't forget to subscribe, rate, and leave a review if you enjoy the episode.

On this episode of Crazy Wisdom, Stewart Alsop sits down with Leo Guinan to talk about the Manhattan Project for Human Potential, his vision of AI as a tool for personal agency, and the Bottega model inspired by the Medici workshops as a way to reimagine networks, mastery, and transformation. The conversation moves through themes of exponential versus linear growth in the economy, the decline of manufacturing in Ohio, China's rise through complexity and control of supply chains, the dangers of time violence and information asymmetry, and the potential of prediction markets to reshape politics and business. Leo also shares his creative project Hitchhiker's Guide to the Future, which he's building as a group art experiment on Substack — you can find it at hitchhikertothefuture.substack.com.Check out this GPT we trained on the conversationTimestamps00:05 Stewart introduces Leo Guinan and they discuss the Manhattan Project for Human Potential, personal agency revolution, and the Bottega model rooted in Medici workshops.00:10 Leo reflects on networks vs. individuals, the genius–insanity line, and how exponential growth clashes with linear wages in Silicon Valley.00:15 They explore economic tension, the decline of wages, mastery in Bottegas, and the vision of decentralized innovation hubs.00:20 Conversation turns to Argentina, decentralization, and Leo's Ohio roots, tying local manufacturing decline, Anchor Hocking, and drug addiction to global shifts.00:25 Leo shares his frustration with student debt, the fakeness of the economy, and neuroses encoded into AI models like Gemini.00:30 They examine China's manufacturing dominance, mercantilism, complexity inflation, and the concept of time violence.00:35 Leo explains infinite predictors, cooperation, and consciousness as network awareness, citing Creator HQ as conscious technology.00:40 Discussion moves to rigorous mysticism, deterministic transformation, probabilistic futures, and the monkey and the pedestal metaphor.00:45 They analyze 1971 as a break between linear and exponential growth, compute access, surveillance states, and the power of human spite.00:50 Leo imagines algorithm manipulation, local AI, and prediction markets, referencing futarchy and political false choices.00:55 They close with Hitchhiker's Guide to the Future, Leo's group art project on Substack, and the rediscovery of ancient wisdom.Key InsightsThe heart of Leo Guinan's work is what he calls the Manhattan Project for Human Potential, a recognition that artificial intelligence isn't just about technology but about a personal agency revolution. He frames AI as a mirror that reveals how networks of people, rather than isolated individuals, drive intelligence and creativity.The Bottega model, inspired by the Medici workshops, is central to Leo's vision. By gathering diverse minds in tight-knit communities where mastery and exploration thrive, Bottegas become nodes of transformation — miniature Silicon Valleys where reality is fluid and imagination creates exponential value.A recurring theme is the structural flaw of modern economies: wages grow linearly while technology and capital compound exponentially. This creates systemic inequality, leaving most people crushed by rising costs while the top flourishes, a dynamic Leo witnessed firsthand in both Silicon Valley and his Ohio hometown.Leo introduces complexity inflation and time violence as hidden forces of the system. Complexity is rewarded over simplicity, making technology harder for everyday people, while time violence lets some actors leverage others' time to their own advantage, turning the economy into an arms race of asymmetries.Consciousness, for Leo, is about networks that are aware of themselves. He praises simple, embodied tools like Creator HQ that respect users' lived reality and contrasts them with AI systems unmoored from the real world. True mastery, he argues, is embodied, consistent, and grounded in human transformation rather than probabilistic shortcuts.Prediction markets emerge as a future-facing tool, offering a way to test decisions, hedge uncertainty, and surface blind spots. Leo envisions organizations running internal prediction markets and even rethinking politics by holding leaders accountable to explicit promises rather than vague partisan change.At the personal level, Leo is experimenting with transformation through his Hitchhiker's Guide to the Future project on Substack, a group art process that forces him out of his engineering comfort zone. He ties this back to ancient wisdom — from Buddha to Renaissance workshops — showing that the process of transformation has always been a deeply human practice we must continually rediscover.
We're joined by journalist and former climate activist Lucy Biggers of The Free Press (and formerly NowThis) to talk about the surprising intersection of motherhood and politics, and what happens when we're brave enough to reexamine our deeply held beliefs.Now a mom of two toddlers, Lucy shares how motherhood reshaped her worldview, inviting her to question ideological narratives she once championed. Together, we explore what it means to humbly change your mind in a polarized world and why motherhood often becomes the great equalizer, forcing us to think not in slogans, but in legacy.From fossil fuels and climate activism to the dangers of Marxism and socialism, we navigate some of today's most polarizing conversations with honesty and curiosity. Because when a topic becomes untouchable, we lose our ability to engage, discern, and build a better future for our children.This one's for the mothers (and fathers) willing to hold nuance, question dogma, and plant seeds of truth for the next generation.Support the showJOIN OUR NEW, PRIVATE COMMUNITY!

1. Purpose of the Sanctions The sanctions aim to cripple Russia’s ability to fund its war in Ukraine by targeting its oil revenue, which is a major source of economic and military support. The U.S. Treasury’s Office of Foreign Assets Control stated the move is intended to degrade Russia’s war machine and economy. 2. Political Context The sanctions follow a canceled meeting between Trump and Putin, signaling rising tensions and frustration. Trump’s administration is positioning this as a shift toward “peace through strength”, emphasizing economic pressure over diplomacy. 3. Economic Implications Russia may be forced to lower oil prices or reduce production, both of which would hurt its economy. The sanctions could lead to global oil price spikes and affect energy markets. The effectiveness depends on international coordination, especially with major buyers like India and China. 4. Domestic Political Support There is bipartisan support in Congress for the sanctions. Speaker Mike Johnson and Senator Mullin both expressed strong backing, framing the move as overdue and necessary. Trump described the sanctions as “very big and tremendous,” indicating a serious escalation. 5. Strategic Considerations The podcast suggests this is just the first step in a broader strategy, potentially including: Secondary sanctions on countries buying Russian oil. Tariffs on Russian oil imports. Military aid to Ukraine via European purchases. 6. Diplomatic Messaging The sanctions are also framed as a lever for diplomacy, with calls for a ceasefire. Trump’s rhetoric and canceled meeting with Putin reflect a hardening stance after failed diplomatic efforts. Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.

1. DOJ Subpoenas and Alleged Political Surveillance Senator Cruz reveals that Jack Smith, Special Counsel under the Biden DOJ, subpoenaed his phone records as part of an investigation into events surrounding January 6th. Cruz was not initially listed among the nine Republican senators whose records were obtained because his phone provider, AT&T, refused to comply with the subpoena, citing constitutional protections under the Speech and Debate Clause. The DOJ reportedly obtained records from Verizon for other senators, including Marsha Blackburn, Ron Johnson, Josh Hawley, and Lindsey Graham. Cruz and Ferguson characterize the subpoenas as a politically motivated fishing expedition, lacking criminal justification. 2. Concerns Over Abuse of Power Cruz argues this represents a dangerous precedent of the executive branch spying on legislative members. He calls for hearings and investigations to uncover who authorized the subpoenas and to prevent future abuses. The operation is referred to as “Arctic Frost”, which Cruz likens to a modern-day Watergate. 3. Meeting with Donald Trump at the White House Cruz recounts a lunch with Trump and other Republican senators, where Trump showcased renovations to the Rose Garden and plans for a new ballroom. The upgrades are privately funded, not taxpayer-funded, yet have drawn criticism from Democrats. Trump also distributed personalized gifts (e.g., challenge coins, golf towels, M&Ms) and joked about naming a room the “Monica Lewinsky Room.” 4. Government Shutdown Cruz discusses the ongoing government shutdown, blaming Democrats for refusing to vote to reopen. He notes that only three Democrats have supported reopening efforts, despite impacts on TSA agents and air traffic controllers. He predicts that retiring Democrats may eventually break ranks to end the shutdown.
