While property investment appears to be the go-to strategy for many Australians, financial experts have urged them to diversify their holdings into liquid assets, such as stocks, to protect themselves in the event of unforeseen expenses. In this episode of In the Balance, hosts Munzurul Khan from KHI Partners and SPI's Phil Tarrant are joined by financial planners Stephen James and Max Pagnin to discuss the benefits of investment diversification. Drawing from their expertise and firsthand experience, Stephen and Max explain how to diversify your investment portfolio and the importance of investing in shares as they offer liquidity – an advantage property lacks – which can be crucial for unexpected expenses. The group also discusses financial planners' role in guiding clients through the complexities of wealth creation.

Welcome to Multiverse News, Your source for Information about all your favorite fictional universes. The search for Hal Jordan's counterpart in the DCU series Lanterns is over as Aaron Pierre has been cast as John Stewart. Pierre won out against other frontrunner Stephen James after screen tests with Hal Jordan actor Kyle Chandler. The John Stewart character from comics holds a lot of weight as it was one of DC's first Black superheroes and is a fan favorite. You can catch Pierre in Netflix's Rebel Ridge and M. Night Shyamalan's movie Old. Disney isn't shying away from leaning into the projects that feel like surefire hits right now, and their updated release schedule reflects that. Both the live-action Lilo & Stitch movie and Freakier Friday - reuniting Lindsay Lohan and Jamie Lee Curtis - have 2025 release dates with Stitch coming first in May and the Freaky Friday sequel in August. Excitement follows both films, with Freakier Friday taking a look at a grown-up Anna, played by Lohan, and Lilo & Stitch featuring a blend of live-action and CGI that will feature original Stitch actor, Chris Sanders. Fandango announced that Wicked pre-sales, which went live last week for the November 22 release, are only second this year behind pre-sales of Deadpool & Wolverine. This also puts Wicked at the highest for advance ticket sales this year for a PG-rated movie and the third of all time in that category, standing up against Disney films Frozen II and 2019's The Lion King. Daniel Ezra who previously starred in Netflix's All American has joined the cast of Paramount and Edgar Wright's The Running Man and will star alongside Glen Powell and Katy O'Brien. Henry Cavill has signed on to star in Voltron for Amazon MGM Studios, a live action film based on the 1980s animated TV series that followed a team of space explorers who pilot a giant super robot known as Voltron and was adapted from several Japanese anime TV series from Toei Animation. Hit Netflix rom com series Nobody Wants This starring Adam Brody and Kristen Bell has been renewed for a second season. Jenni Konner and Bruce Eric Kaplan who executive produced HBO's Girls have come on board as executive producers and showrunners for Season 2. Horror slasher Terrifier 3 opened ahead of expectations this weekend to take the number one spot at the box office, pulling in over $18 million dollars domestically, while Joker 2 had a historic drop off of 81% in its second weekend, only taking in $7 million dollars domestically. Radio Silence Productions is returning for a sequel to 2019 cult horror film Ready or Not. Star of the first film Samara Weaving will return for the sequel and Guy Busick and Ryan Murphy who wrote the original will return to write. AppleTV+ has released the first trailer for Silo season 2 starring Rebecca Ferguson. The series debuts on November 15th. The hunt is on for a host for the upcoming Oscars and sources tell Deadline that the tentative plan is to use an ensemble of rotating hosts and ABC has approached Amy Poehler, Dwayne Johnson, and the duo of Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman about hosting the show. AppleTV+ has renewed Gary Oldman led spy drama series Slow Horses for a 6th season. A fifth season renewal was announced earlier this year. Prime Video has released a teaser trailer for season 3 of Invincible and has set Thursday, February 6, 2025 for the season premiere. James Gunn confirmed on social media Tuesday that Krypto the Superdog will feature in his upcoming "Superman" film. The announcement was made in celebration of Adopt a Shelter Dog Month this October. Sony has set a release date for its upcoming Until Dawn video game adaptation film of April 25th, 2025. Until Dawn is directed by David F. Sandberg and was written by Gary Dauberman.

Welcome to Multiverse News, Your source for Information about all your favorite fictional universes. Joker: Folie a Deux, the long awaited and much discussed follow up to 2019's surprise hit Joker, finally hit theaters last weekend and the numbers across the board, critically and financially, leave something to be desired. The $200 million-budgeted, psychological thriller/musical/courtroom drama sequel debuted to just $37 million domestically, a soft bow certainly impacted by poor critical reviews and a D CinemaScore from audiences – a record worst for the comic book film genre. While promoting his new film We Live In Time via an interview with Esquire, Andrew Garfield spoke on his willingness to reprise his role as The Amazing Spider-Man, saying quote, “For sure, I would 100% come back if it was the right thing, if it's additive to the culture, if there's a great concept or something that hasn't been done before that's unique and odd and exciting and that you can sink your teeth into. I love that character, and it brings joy. If part of what I bring is joy, then I'm joyful in return.” Last week The Hollywood Reporter released an editorial analysis of the state of the Star Wars franchise after being bought by Disney 12 years ago. The report crunched and discussed numbers including budgets, revenues, critical and audience reviews, viewership, and streaming subscriptions, among other verticals for all the projects beginning with The Force Awakens through The Acolyte. The latest buzz from the rumor mill via The Production List, Blue Beetle and Cobra Kai star Xolo Mariduena appears to be attached to Marvel Studios Nova series. While it's still far from official casting, if true, the move could have implications for Jaime Reyes' as-of-yet unclear future in James Gunn's DCU. Spyglass has set the release date for Scream VII as Feb 27, 2026, with Neve Campbell officially reprising her role and franchise creator Kevin Williamson returning as director. Paramount is developing a live-action/CG Rugrats film, directed by Jason Moore of Pitch Perfect, with a script by SNL's Mikey Day and head writer Streeter Seidell. It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia star and creator Rob McElhenney has confirmed that the show will be shooting a crossover episode with the cast of Abbott Elementary, which also takes place in Philadelphia. James Hawes, an established TV creator who most recently directed a string of episodes of the Gary Oldman spy series Slow Horses, has been tapped to helm the first two episodes of Lanterns for Max. According to the Hollywood Reporter, Katy O'Brian, the rising actress who gained notice with Love Lies Bleeding, is joining Glen Powell in The Running Man, Paramount's adaptation of the Stephen King novel Will Smith is set to reunite with director Michael Bay for the first time in 30 years for a new Netflix action movie titled Fast and Loose. The film follows a man who wakes up in Mexico with no memory and discovers he has been living a double life as both a CIA agent and a crime lord. Netflix has canceled the Jeff Goldblum led series Kaos after one season. Prey star Amber Midthunder has joined the second season of AppleTV+'s monsterverse series Monarch: Legacy of Monsters. The Mindy Kaling-led animated Scooby Doo spin off Velma has been canceled by Max after two seasons. Insider Jeff Sneider is adding another name to the list of potential actors to play John Stewart in the upcoming DC series Lanterns, reporting that 21 Bridges actor Stephen James has emerged as the front runner. Christopher Nolan's next film with Universal now has a release date of July 17th, 2026 with Matt Damon in early talks to star.

Show Notes and Transcript June Slater is someone who saw the dangers of uncontrolled immigration and spoke out.  She is an accidental media voice who now speaks common sense to her 121 K followers on X and delivers truths on GB News.  The problem is that many of us see the collapse of our communities and societies but keep quiet.  But June is someone who cannot hold her tongue and says what many of us are thinking but too afraid to say.  She joins us to look at our failing institutions and ask, can we ever trust them again?  Parliament and Police, local government, courts and education have always held our country together.  But when they mock and ridicule the public and play them for fools then that balance and trust collapses.  June highlights the areas in which our previously trusted institutions have failed us and asks whether we can ever put our faith in them again. June Slater is a retired businesswoman who lives in the North-West of England.  June has been campaigning for Brexit since 2016 when she joined Vote Leave's campaign in Blackburn.  Since then she has built a huge following as a social and political commentator on her social media channels.  Her no-nonsense, straightforward approach is a refreshing and invigorating change to the uni-party Westminster Politics.

No, not at all. It's always good talking to people. Actually, the fun part is talking to people who you don't really know and you see online, you see on TV, and of course people can follow you @JuneSlater17 is your Twitter handle. And certainly you popped up on my feed a lot. Maybe for the viewers, certainly for our US viewers who may not have come across you, June, you're UK based obviously and being on GB News, it may not cross over the pond stateside. Do you want to just give us a minute, just your background or how you've got to where you are and then we'll get on to the topic, which is can we ever trust our institutions again, but tell us a little bit about yourself first. Okay, I'm a retired businesswoman and my only intention was after retirement when I was about 47 was to fill my house with rescue dogs and just have a nice time. Running a second home in Austria, travelling there with the dogs, that was it. I knew nothing about politics, never took any notice of it, didn't affect my business life. I just got on with what I wanted to do. And then we got attacked a couple of times at the Channel Tunnel with migrants. When I say attacked, not directly, they were trying to break into trucks, and we ended up in a wrong queue in our rather low -slung Mercedes CLS, which seemed to be dwarfed by these huge trucks. And a guy jumped off the back and came towards the car, and I was mesmerized for a minute. He was huge and he had something that looked like a crowbar in his hand trying to get in the truck, but it didn't work. He was angry and we were next in line. And I just said to Dave, Jesus Christ, get up the hard shoulder, just go. And as he came towards the car, I had a particularly noisy dog. I had four little dogs in the back, Westies, but one sounded bigger and they were blacked out windows so he couldn't see them. So I let the window down a little bit and my dogs kicked off and he backed away. But as he approached the car, he went up to my passenger window and he went, hey, blondie, he did that? So we drove off up the hard shoulder, which you're not supposed to do, got ourselves together and I wondered who the hell it was. And he said, who do you think it is? And I had no idea about the migrant crisis, hold my hand up. my husband was pretty well versed on what was going on in the world, I was naïve completely. Then another time...  How long ago was that?  2015.  Okay. Then we were traveling on Christmas Day and we did the crossing when we got out the other end at Calais. The whole of the six lanes of motorway was cordoned off. We just drove out sat in a queue and it was on fire with a barricade that the migrants had made with tires and wood and whatever they could find. There was at least, I think, about 80 police vans, riot police. It was terrifying. So again, I just thought we've got to get out of this. We're sitting ducks because these maggots were kind of spreading out and throwing rocks. So we went, we used an entry road for an exit and we just got off the motorway the wrong way and went on the back lanes. I was that nervous, I couldn't fathom me sat nav out to avoid motorways. It kept taking me back to the motorway and obviously we were very nervous about coming across them again. So we drove for about 60 miles without stopping to make sure we're out of the way and that's when I started taking it seriously because I thought this is peacetime. I'm in Europe, I'm just going from my home to my holiday home in the Alps in Austria. I'm going to ski in winter and swim in summer, what the hell's going on? So I started investigating it, lamely at first, then I got more stuck and more stuck in and as I'd always said to my husband, don't involve me in politics because I am like a dog with a bone, I won't let go. So I got more stuck in and I realised that this was a deliberate attempt to disrupt Europe. And it sounded a bit far -fetched. I was in denial when I first found out and I even came off Facebook for a couple of days. I couldn't handle it and then I thought people should know because there were more people like me than like my husband who knew what was going on. He wasn't politically active, he just knew what was going on. He knew something was wrong. So I started telling my friends on Facebook. I have about 1,000 friends on Facebook from real life events working for me or friends from school and I started telling them and I started finding out more about it and then I decided to... I thought Brexit was a good idea to get away from the EU legislation that was allowing them in because the only thing the EU legislation has ever done has been a gateway for cheap labour. It's not free movement of people, it's free movement of cheap labour for Tory backers. Having always voted Conservative, that probably sounds a bit odd, but anyway. So I joined Vote Leave as a volunteer and went out at the weekends and I could see that this business of campaigning with leaflets was a bloody old hat, it wasn't moving with the times and I thought I'm quite a good communicator. I used to have a driving school with a high pass rate because I could communicate information well and I'm quite good at putting complex stuff into simple terms. So I thought, I'll have a go, I'll have a go, because it seemed to me the political bubble deliberately spoke their own language to keep ordinary people out. So I started explaining what Brexit was really about. It wasn't about the pet passport, it wasn't about the e -hicks card, it was not about easy travel, it was certainly not about free movement of people. It was about creating an entity to get everybody roped into it until they were linked like the United States and couldn't get out of it. And then they would come down with the tyrannical version of events because as you know the EU is autocratic not democratic it's anti -democratic it's not just not democratic it's anti -democratic. Because they're creating laws all the time, their MPs, I don't know if your American viewers realise their MPs are told how to vote, they do not get a free vote, they're given a list, votes going every day, they create it a bit like the Roman Empire describing something out every day to you know there's legislation to follow all the time, where democratic societies have generally run with a list of basic requirements, don't murder people, don't rob, don't rape, don't do this and get on with your life. Sadly we seem to be following suit even though we have voted for Brexit. So I turned my page over to public, which scared me to death and I got quite a lot of abuse and I was going to pack up, because Dave said we don't need this in our life, which we didn't, And something, I don't know. Something drove me on because I could see millions of people wanted to know what Brexit was about. So I organised, people kept messaging me, new people I didn't even know, June what does it mean? Because I don't think this EU's any good. So we'd have meetings, I'd say, right, well, you know, little factory workers on the lunch hour or hairdressers, people within, you know, in an engineering shed. So they'd have their sandwiches, get a computer, and we'd have a meeting at like 12 o 'clock, half past 12. So I had little groups of people where I told them what Brexit was really about, and these were people that weren't even going to vote at all in the referendum. And I'm quite proud to say, I think I probably encouraged, I thought it was about 5 ,000, but I think it's more like 15 ,000 people, to vote to Brexit. And that was just, I'd only just started, I'd only had 4 ,000 followers. I didn't do it on purpose, I didn't intend to get a load of followers, I've never asked anybody to follow me, I've never made any money out of it, I've never took a penny off anyone. Twitter give you a bit of money now, 38 quid I've had, so I haven't dined off Twitter, I can assure you. I didn't even touch Twitter because it scared me to death, it looked like a bloody bear pit. So I didn't start Twitter properly till last July, Not this July, just gone the one before because it just looked like a load of aggressive people with avatars and no sodding names. Having a go at each other, I thought I can do without that. Anyway, I just retweeted other people's stuff from 2019. And then I thought, sod it. I didn't know whether my style of vlogging would go down very well with my little short videos that I do, two minutes here and three minutes there. So I did a couple of videos about issues and they were getting 300 ,000 views, one at 900 ,000 views, another had a million. So all of a sudden I went around on Twitter and I'd gone from 6 ,000 followers to 19 ,000 followers to 22 ,000 to 36 ,000 and it grew and grew quite quickly in 12 months. I'm at about 120 I think now. Baring in mind, I'm not a celebrity. I haven't been a former dancer or a football player. I'm just a mush that sees the world is going to hell in a handcart and if we, the people, don't do something about it, we won't get a choice in it soon. Currently we have a choice and that's why I keep going. So that's my background into this. I'm basically a fun -loving person who only joined social media to run a fun group with jokes on. I don't know where that ended up. Now you've become an online voice of reason and GB news, all of that. It's interesting because I knocked on so many doors, did all of that with UKIP and with vote leave. Immigration, obviously, this is a massive failing in our Parliament, which is one institution which I traditionally believed in, accepted, and now many of us are the opposite opinion. But not only immigration, but the COVID tyranny has woken a lot of people up to what is happening in Parliament in Westminster. We've just had the, well, we have the public inquiry, which seems to be the biggest waste of time. But what were you, because immigration, but then you've obviously seen, lived, spoken about the the COVID tyranny and there's no apology, there's no parliamentarian saying we got it wrong, oops, it's just same old, same old. There's one politician, normally the British Parliament has a government and opposition party, that's all part of the government, it's the King's opposition, the King's government. We haven't had any opposition and that always struck me as odd. How come a Labour party is backing up a Tory party? Easy, it's easy to work it out, they're not Tories. Anybody out there who's thinking of voting for the Tories to save them from Labour, you're dreaming pal, you are absolutely dreaming. Oh but Labour are worse, the Tory party have ended up in power in this country for 13 years on the back of a threat that Labour are worse. They're the same, it's the uni-party, nobody's offering anything any different, all roads lead to Rome, the WEF, the W -E -F. Let's just cut the crap about the WEF as some spooky sinister organisation. It's not. It's just a basically glorified chamber of trade that's for the upper echelon in society. It's like your local chamber of trade but for really big hitters. So politicians gravitate towards this set of comedians because if they ever lose their seat, and many of them will. They've somewhere to go, they've rubbed shoulders with people and swapped business cards and, you know, like Chuka Amunna, he's ended up with a top -flight job because he went to the WEF. Sadiq Khan, that atrocious man, he hangs around there like a bad smell in a gent's toilet. He's always there. Boris wouldn't allow his ministers and MPs to go to the Davos conference. Strange bloke, Boris, very strange. I think what we've got to look at is, don't be afraid of them. The only difference between the WEF and you and me, they have more money. That's it. They are not smarter, they are not cleverer. Some of them have ulterior motives, many of them have, and a lot of it boils down to one old favourite, profit. Now, some weirdos that are part of the WEF want to control humanity. Well, the Nazis tried that in two world wars and there's lots of rumours about a lot of overhang from that. The European Union was basically a Nazi plan devised after the Second World War to take over Europe through the banking system because President Eisenhower stitched Germany up into to an agreement, a treaty, that doesn't expire until 2099. And that is, they're not allowed to have an aggressive army. They can only have a peacekeeping force. It's a treaty. They're a vassal state to the US. And a lot of things that are going on, everything that's happened since Black Lives Matter is interconnected. Every single event, I don't care what it is, it's all interconnected, to disrupt and destabilize. Because it seems strange to me in America, all the states that have the disruption with Black Lives Matter were basically Democrat states. And lots of property deals have been done since in these areas that got trashed. And a lot of people have made money. I mean, basically, you seem to have four crime families running in America. Good God, how can these people even get up in the morning and show their faces? And I'm sorry, some of you may be offended by this, but if any of you in the States are actually thinking Joe Biden won an election, I think you should change your tablets, because there's absolutely no way that man won. Absolutely no way he won. He fiddled it. That's my opinion and currently I'm allowed to have it, but sometime in the future I'll probably won't. So my worry for the future is, wow, if the leaders of the free world, can engineer an election, where a dribbling man who can't string a sentence together, who has to hold a cue card up to talk to someone who he's interviewing. If the free world can end up in those hands, what hope is there for the rest of us? Because it seems to me, the only thing I can work out is it's like the Clinton, Obama cabal behind it, because no way Joe Bedridden, that's my name for him, is running America. Absolutely no sodding way. So all of a sudden America's... Trump, it doesn't matter whether you like him, people sadly still judge him on his comb over and his tan. I mean, I get that. So he didn't want to go to war with anyone. He had Jews talking to Arabs. He even got North Korea down off the shelf. What was your problem with that man? He increased manufacturing in the US. Hello, are you listening to all this? This is a list of stuff and he never even took a wage. Now you've got a crime family who's got a a coke snorting son who's been in and out of bed with underage people. That's what it looks like on some places, I could be wrong, happy to stand corrected. Who's had everything bad that he's done covered up. They're dealing with Ukraine, where money laundering, organ harvesting, and Christ knows what else is going on. And this is the family that's running America. Wow, you are in a mess. You are in a serious mess. Buddy-ing up to China, and then you've got Russia. This is what kills me. Russia. Oh, be afraid of Russia. Oh, scary. Bogey man. Bad man. Russia man bad. Zelensky good. Bollocks. Bollocks. Absolute bollocks. Zelensky won his ticket on a peace agreement. He said he'd signed a peace agreement with Russia. That's what Russia expected. And what's he called? Robert Kennedy. He tells you quite openly in one of his interviews that once Zelensky got in, the neo-cons nobbled him. We don't know how, but they nobbled him and he changed tack. There should have been a peace agreement, the Minsk accord. It was never signed. And then what they did after the war broke out, they got Boris Johnson like a sodding lapdog to go across and scupper the peace talks for the Minsk Accord too, which was basically going to stop war again. What I've noticed with warmongering people like the Biden administration, they'll risk anybody's son but their own. They're always fighting on someone else's soil and it's always their people. It's their nation that'll get ripped to shreds. It's their people that are dying on their own soil. it's disgusting what's going on. So we're all told this is a great war saving democracy and freedom and if you can't see through the fact that during a war this lunatic has never been out of khaki clothing yet never been to a battle. You've got Richard Branson turning up for a visit in the middle of a war dressed in white. You've got Boris Johnson going. you've got celebrities, you've got Vogue magazine going with a full film crew, hello, that isn't what happens in war. Usually people are too scared to go to a country that's at war. You've got refugees coming here that are paid for by the Department of Work and Pensions, paid to go home when they want to sort things out, like one was going home because she had a bad tenant in her house. So I'm thinking to myself, hang on a minute, if you've got a tenant in your house back in Ukraine, weren't you in your house? What are you doing over here? You've got a tenant in, you're making money out of it. So obviously the house is standing. This doesn't detract from genuine grief, genuine injury and genuine death that's going on in Ukraine right now. They're using that country. It's a patsy country run by corruption from outside forces. That's my opinion. Again, happy to stand corrected if I'm wrong. So we've got all this going on. And you've got a set of people in the British Parliament, the mother of all parliaments, who are rancid in corruption. It's a den of vice as far as I can see it. There are people there, there's an MP whose sister is vaccine injured, she's got Guillain -Barre syndrome. You've got two male MPs that have vaccine injured wives. You've got three that have minor vaccine injuries and nobody's saying a word. Shh! Don't say anything. Don't complain about it. So you've got a Parliament and this is how people have got to wake up. In Britain we have the National Health Service. It's atrocious. It's not fit. It's not fit. It's absolutely... You go on about the tiered system in America. Oh my God, you should see the NHS in Britain. How can the public roll the sleeve up, accept an injection that's brand new on the back of the government are bothered about you, the government really care? How can they do that when during that period the very self -same government took 5 ,000 beds away in the NHS, there aren't enough ambulances, there aren't enough paramedics. People are sitting in a hospital after they've gone because of an episode, whatever's gone on, serious episode, sat in soiled pyjamas in corridors waiting to be seen. And yet they can find an interpreter to come immediately for someone who needs attention, that can't speak English. That's a side issue. The real issue is common sense people never lose sight of that. You can't go to university for it and all you need to do is question the obvious. Right, if the government cared about us, surely in a growing population the best they could have done, even for a pandemic, would be to grow our national health, to have more doctors, to have more beds, not take 5 ,000 away when you've already taken 15 ,000 away from us in 2017. That doesn't add up to me, that isn't care, that is cost cutting. Yeah, following on from that, because we've seen, and the one MP that is standing up is Andrew Bridgen, we've had him on here twice, I think, before, but not only on what's happening with COVID on vaccine harms, but also his latest 10 minute bill is on the WHO pandemic treaty, looking at that, and that seems to be a follow on from COVID. Everyone is scared to death, therefore this is now the solution. And it is, again, it is, when you say unbelievable, at one point it would been unbelievable to think our politicians would hand over power but they did it with Brussels, with the EU and the WHO, the UN body, I guess is another step in that process of handing all power over. Well basically it's muted any benefit we could have had from Brexit because they're just taking power away, they're taking sovereignty away from us now through the back door. They tried it with the EU and we voted to leave. You see two things happened that should never have happened. Trump won and, Brexit won. So I got a lot of stick because I said that Agenda 2030, Agenda 2021, 2021 being the century not the year, were nothing to worry about when I was blogging at the time and people said oh you got that wrong, you got that wrong. No I didn't, no I didn't get it wrong because at that point we got Trump in and we got Brexit. So those two issues should never ever have affected us because as a country we were ring fenced with our own sovereignty to say back away from the vehicle we don't want this shit in our lives, we're not interested in your depopulation, we're not interested in your smart cities, we're going to get on with being the best we can be. We're British, we've got the greatest global reach of any member state of the EU, people forget that, we ski down the ski slopes, we sit on their beaches, we buy their wine, we drive their cars, we wear their clothes. What do they buy from us? Not very much. We are their best customer and they have basically treated us appallingly. Nothing needed to change. No legislation. They could have eased us out of there. We all trade the same. The fact is they didn't want us to. They didn't want Brexit to be made easy because other people would want to leave. And now it doesn't matter. It doesn't matter about Brexit. The only saving grace we've got with Brexit is that during the tyranny of the last three years as they forced 40 ,000 care workers out of their job in an industry, may I say, that's already short -staffed, that has malnutrition in British care homes, malnutrition, and they forced 40 ,000 people out of their jobs that hadn't done anything wrong other than say, I don't want the vaccine and then the together declaration Alan Miller's lot, and which I'm a kind of ambassador for which means I don't know I speak out for them and, nurses 100 ,000 lobbied the government to stop the same happening to the NHS. The government were already shipping people in from abroad that can't speak English. Nurses, how do we know how they're trained? They're coming in from far -flung places to treat people. There's a geriatric hospital where people are wandering around with useless face masks on, where elderly people who are already confused with Alzheimer's and God knows what else, who also are in there with ailments. I've got foreign nurses who don't even know what a bedpan is. Dear God Almighty what's happened to this country. So we've got that going on in the background but we fought back, now had we been in the EU we couldn't have fought back, would have had to do what the EU said and I know this from my neighbour in Austria and in the Alps. We'd sold our house in 2019 but still in touch because we were very very good friends and they had to get vaccinated but to be fair they did have a get out clause if you could prove you got positive antibodies from having the infection you didn't need to have the vaccine so you could go around your business for six months and then you needed another blood test because my neighbour did that. Now the thing is that's quite a good option. But it's not such a good option when you think, in Europe, after the Second World War, they opted for a system where you had to show your papers to get in a restaurant, to get in a supermarket. They could stop you on the street. When is somebody going to wake up and say that that is really seriously bad news? So unfortunately or fortunately I should say we're not in the EU so we could say, no we're not having it, we don't want this and we had a pivotal moment, you know the Tiananmen Square where the guy stood there a little single man in front of the tank, we have that in Britain people didn't notice it, but that's what we had and we had a doctor, a lung and heart specialist, who was Dr, I can't remember his name now, Stephen, I'd seen him in WhatsApp groups, I can't remember his surname. He was live on Sky TV, they couldn't edit it, with Sajid Javid, the then Health Minister at the time, where he said, have you had your vaccine? And he said, no, I don't need it, I've had COVID. And he said it quietly. Stephen James, Dr. Stephen James, that was a Tiananmen Square moment because they couldn't edit it. Because the big thing that's happening to us now is that media, the stuff isn't getting out. So you have to come on places like this and you have to go on my channel, you know, Twitter page. And it's not enough because there are millions of people out there who only trust news from the telly. It has to come from the telly. If it hasn't come to in the house from the telly, it's not news. So when that happened, whoa, that didn't half put the brakes on and it made Sajid Javid look like the uninformed twit that he is on health issues. He's a banker for God's sake. We've got a doctor, Liam Fox, why didn't they make him health minister? He knew that what was going on was wrong. He would have been a much better candidate. Don't get me going on, please don't get me going on Matt Hancock. No, no, no, we'll not even go Matt Hancock, it's a programme series in themselves. There's Parliament absolute collapse, public trust, an old -time loan institution and people no longer give a damn who, and you're right, red and blue is just the same difference. But I'm curious to have your thoughts on the monarchy because I grew up as a monarchist and our American friends will maybe mock the monarchy but I always saw as giving stability and the Queen being certainly a rock in terms of faith and that privacy, never seeking the fame. Complete change with King Charles, obviously tight connections with the WEF and I also read that he's going to give the opening COP28 speech which is the UN climate change body. How do you, again I think a lot of people have lost faith in that institution with that huge change. What are your thoughts on the role that King Charles now plays? Well he's not his mother. His mother kept out of everything and generally speaking in a democracy if you've got a constitution, with a royal family that's the head of the constitution, it's usually a safer place to be and it has been. That's changed. That stopped when she died because he came to power. You want to go look what's happened with him. He's a climate junkie anyway, so that all depends. You know, these people are pampered. They've got gout. They've got things wrong with them. They read what they want to read and they read what Lord Fauntleroy has put in front of them, so it all depends what he chooses to read. So yeah he's really close with the way the WEF want to do things and he called COVID a window of opportunity for a great reset. How? How is the virus everybody basically recovered from, the death rate gladly didn't have enough people in it and a lot of them were elderly anyway, the average age of people dying from COVID was higher than the age you're expected to live anyway, it's 85. How can that be a window of opportunity? For what? We're all locked down, we can't get together, we can't complain, we can't get access to information. So while we're all in that position, let's just bring some tyranny out. What a good idea. No, sod off. Prince Charles, for me, is completely untrustworthy and the monarchy has ended and all that's happening now, these sad, chinless wonders are trying to keep a 1300 year old brand going. We've got Jacinda Ardern, Mr Ed from bloody New Zealand, who's now the right hand monkey of Prince William and his, I always say a money shot, that's porn isn't it? Disgusting. What's it called? Earthshot. He's brought her in, she's left, she's now come to work for him as his right hand. Oh read the writing on the wall people, just because he's got a fit wife that looks nice in really expensive clothing doesn't mean these are nice people. These are not nice people, these are not people that you can trust your future with and that parliament of ours, 650 eunuchs now. Once that WHO pandemic treaty is signed, we have 600, well 649 because Andrew Bridgen's fighting against it. I speak to Andrew quite a lot. He's ruined his own life for this, do you know that? And there's idiots out there saying, oh he's controlled opposition. Don't talk like a canary. He's not controlled opposition. He's apologised four times now, as I've seen it, for joining in the rollout, recommending it, and recommended that the NHS should have it. He's seen the light, he's vaccine injured himself, he's fighting back hard, he's doing his level best, it's ruined his life, his kid's getting bullied, nobody speaks to him at work, they won't sit with him, they're stonewalling, they're horrible, these people are horrible, the power junkies, they're out for themselves, they are not there to represent us. That's what they're supposed to do, but they're not. They've now got to this stage where, you know, Brandon Lewis has turned around and thinks it's a good idea for migrants so we can't even prove where they're from. Open up your homes because we're not happy with the hotel bills we've got for it. Are you mental? Have you got some sort of deranged disorder that, oh yeah, what a good idea, we don't know where they're from, they don't like us, they don't speak English, let's open our homes up and let them live with us. You, I'll tell you what, you fill your homes up first and we'll follow suit. How about that? So this is where these people are absolutely bonkers because once that WHO pandemic treaty is signed, that's it. They control farming, they control agriculture, livestock, the weather, they control whether or not you will be able to see your nan in a nursing home, they will control whether or not you can go to work. You can sit there in Osset Whistle in Lancashire and someone in Geneva can tell you whether or not you can go to work, even though you've got a and even though you're fit and healthy and even though you're not ill, there'll be some reason that they can cause a lockdown and you'll have to do it because the MPs that we pay, £170 million a year for will say it's not us, no no no it's not us, it's the WHO, we have to. Anybody in their right mind only needs to look at the planet to see the planet runs differently in different places. There's a Sahara desert and there's a mountain range called the Himalayas. There's sea and there's land. There's tropical weather and there's warm balmy weather. There's living in the North Atlantic in a set of windswept islands like the UK that gets plenty of water and there's drought in other places. How one body of people can decide what the whole world does to approach anything, be it weather or health, is bad news. It's wrong, it won't work, it will cause death and destruction and we have got 11 MPs we're not allowed to know the identity of that are overseeing this. I showed the WHO pandemic treaty to my solicitor who does a lot of my land deals. I said what do you think of this? And he had, you know, left it a couple of days and he got back to me and went, good God, he said I didn't even know this was, I said well yeah that's what's. He was shocked, he's not politically active. And he said, if this was an agreement for you personally, I'd tell you to not sign it, run a mile. So, we, the wording, people generally, they might buy one or two houses in their life, they never see any legal documentation. That's what they're relying on. I see a lot of stuff. I see a lot of leases. I see a lot of contracts. And I see the wording and over the years, I've got savvy with it where you think, hang on, That actually doesn't mean that in that sentence, that's legal terms for something quite different. That thing is full of it. That despicable piece of legislation is full of traps so that we've got nowhere to hide and nobody on this planet has the right to rule the planet because it's all so varied. The farmers in Holland are having compulsory purchase orders of their farms for less than what they're worth, so that they can stop growing food. Holland grows most of the food for Africa. And what has always amazed me, we're getting down to the bones of it now, I think they've played their hand too soon. They really have played their hand too soon with Covid, because guess what? Loads of us didn't get vaccinated and we're all still alive. Hard luck. And we're all still here banging on about it. So at the beginning, they've not engineered this right. At the beginning, they had the nation on their side. You were granny killers if you were talking like me, etc. Now we're not. Now we know we're not. And the old people's home, you see, everybody has skin in the game. It's not just the politicians. It's everybody connected. they all have their reason for the way they react to legislation. The nursing homes, you can't visit. It's easier to run a nursing home without visitors. It's a lot easier to run a nursing home without visitors. Keep them out, they're a bloody nuisance. Wow, that's easy. Or it's Covid, it's Covid, you can't come in, it's Covid. Yeah right, it's a damn sight easy. And then what happens in a lot of UK nursing homes, regular visitors from loved ones bring them food in because some of them, if they've got mental health issues as well as being infirm, they forget to eat and they get their breakfast tray served, a shift changes, a new girl comes on, takes her breakfast tray away, hasn't noticed the old person hasn't eaten it, or a younger person even. So I had a friend who's got a person in a care home and she took food every day, then she couldn't, and her daughter lost weight. Two Stone! She's only 20 odd. And they were all given DNRs. Do not resuscitate. Who's got the right to do that? Because some bum head politician like Matt Hancock decides that he hasn't got enough insight to think of his own idea. So I'll copy what Jeremy Hunt said when he was Health Minister, which is if there's a, they do these for pandemics, what to do, right, don't let the NHS get overrun, shut the hospitals down. That was the procedure, if they were overrun. He locked them down, the donkey. Not because they were overrun. You get a hospital with 10 wards, one ward open, that's not overrun. That's not a virus running rampant. That's bad administration. We were never overrun. Cardiff Hospital, 94 ICU beds, never had more than 45 of them open. That's not overrun, that's bad management. Bed blocking they call it, when they can't send old people back to the care homes because of Covid. So they keep them in hospital longer, so they can't put new people in. Bad management, that is not a virus, that is not a natural virus that's running through the country, creating a health hazard. The people running the country are the hazard. Bad decision making.  And with the NHS, Nightingale Hospital, supposedly open for that demand, were never used. I just want to finish on one thing that's current. We could go through the collapse of the court system, schools sexualising children, local government, 15 minute cities, that level of control. But I just want to finish just to touch on the armed forces. We've got Armistice day coming up, when the nation stops to remember those who have fallen traditionally in the First and Second World War. And we've never had such a tight connection with our military as maybe our friends across the water in the States do. But I guess it's that public view that we now have police and guards around the cenotaph and some of the monuments to protect them from being attacked and defaced. And that's something that, again, if you go back years, you would never have thought of protecting those because there was that respect. How has that kind of collapsed, that respect, from sections of the public for our armed forces? Because this section of the public don't care about this country. This section of the public only care about what they can get for this country. I think, was it Kennedy who said, don't ask what your country can do for you, what can you do for your country? There's nobody with that ethos or thought process out on the streets of Britain today demonstrating. I'm absolutely floored by what I've seen and I covered what was going on with Syria at the time because I got quite good with a tech guy who was really good at sourcing fake videos and fake footage and he found out about the White Helmets staging these atrocious gas attacks in Syria. It was nothing of the sort. They were faked. I watched them. I watched them make it. I watched the video of them getting a wind machine like a Hollywood movie set, big bag of cement and then that blew it in and then they added the sound effects, going on all the time. It's happening now and I'm not getting into the debate of the Middle East, I'm not interested in it. What I'm bothered about is what happens in this country and in this country you can demonstrate, you have the right to protest, fine, you've got that right but you don't have to do it on the one day of the year. We've become, We don't even respect any other holiday. We just about close our shops for Christmas Day and then, wow, we're opening, we must get those people spending. We have one day, one day a year that means something to a lot of people. We have cenotaphs in villages and towns. We have that one day a year where we should be able to honour our dead because I'm old enough, I'm 65, I'm old enough to have parents who fought in that war, who served in that war, a mother forced to go in a munitions factory as my dad was sent to war at 17. So I know all about it because they talked to me about it because they didn't want to ever see it happen again. And I'd got uncles who were injured in the war. One was in Burma in a prisoner of war camp, came home a neurotic wreck, a skeleton. And all these things happened. Rationing, do these young people out on the streets with the big full bellies and the big fat faces waving the flags realised that people came home from war and then had another 10 years of rationing food where they didn't even get enough food to eat once they served the country. They've got no idea what we went through. I'm sick of being looked at as though it's all right for us because we're in the West and we've got everything. We work for everything we've got. We have put the effort in. We have paid the taxes. We have suffered the losses to get our country to a good standard and their countries are still fighting to get what they want and that does not give you the right to desecrate a day that should be just left untouched. This weekend, Saturday and Sunday, leave it alone. Just give us some breathing space. Do it another day. You're getting plenty of media coverage. I don't know where you're getting your flags from, but they all seem brand new. You're out there. I look at these young faces, a lot of them student types. Well, that's if you can see the face, because the men seem to prefer to cover them up. If I felt so strongly about something, I'd have my face showing and my name showing, as I do on my social media. So I am absolutely appalled, as are many other people. And it's not just happening in London, it's happening in Blackburn, Burnley, Accrington, Darwin, Huddersfield, Manchester. All these people have come out from the woodwork. They're not from this country that they're on about. Half of them don't know what's going on properly. And they don't have the right to desecrate this weekend and chuck our poppies off. Our cenotaph, no flags, no poppies on. It's bad enough on Remembrance Sunday that we have to watch people like Tony Blair and what's he called, the other fella that sold us out to Europe after Maggie.  Gordon Brown. Gordon Brown as well, yeah, but the other fella. He was having an affair with Edwina Currie. What's he called? Mr. Grey.  Oh, John Major. John Major, yeah. It's bad enough watching people like that at the cenotaph with the fake somber attitude and the crumbies on. It turns my stomach that these days of the people that put the effort in, you know, these people are the ones that cause the bloody wars. These are the ones, wars are caused by people in suits and uniforms, but they're fought by people who seldom have them on. They're fought by people told what to do, and they have the audacity to bring these characters out as though they care. They don't care. These are soulless characters in my view. And to have to, all right, we'll stomach that because it's how it is, but we don't have to stomach this lot. We don't have to stomach these angry, entitled, opinionated, and you know what Briton's lack, what Britain has too much of, ingratitude. People come to this country, we print everything we've got in 23 languages so you can understand it and settle in better. We share our school, we share our housing, we share our healthcare, we share everything that we've built up, we share with you. And on this one day, back off, shut up and give us our day. That's what I think, because I am sick of people who have come to this country, and this is not racist, I wouldn't go to your country and expect so much. It's ingratitude. We've given everything we've got to give. Everything we've got to give has been handed over on a plate to people who've never paid a penny in and we're still getting it wrong. We're still told we're not doing enough. Apart from self -flagellation, I don't know what else we can do. You're 100 % and it is that. We welcome people in and haven't had that agreement of what it means to come here in that level of respect because I guess it was expected but you can't assume in this day and age. June, love having you on. So good. As I said, love following you online and great to have you on in person chatting to you. So thanks so much for your time today.  Thank you.

Though I didn't have a five-timers jacket to send them, the guests on today's show have all been on DMA at least 5 times (some have been on double that amount!).  As we celebrate ten years of the podcast we wanted to acknowledge the voices I turn to again and again for support in parenting and life.

It's Hump Day! First, Emma speaks with attorney Stephen Bright and James Kwak, law professor at the University of Connecticut, to discuss their recent book The Fear of Too Much Justice: Race, Poverty, and the Insistence of Inequality in the Criminal Courts. Then, she's joined by writer Katherine Stewart to discuss her recent piece in The New Republic entitled "The Claremont Institute: The Anti-Democracy Think Tank".  First, Emma runs through updates on tonight's GOP Presidential Debate, Trump's various legal battles, the UPS-Teamsters agreement, Hollywood's anti-labor action, child labor in the US, Ed Bloom's new anti-education lawsuit, a potential Oregon Supreme Court case on homelessness, and various geopolitical discourses, before admiring Climate Defiance's recent action in front of a Maura Healey fundraiser. Stephen Bright and James Kwak then join, first diving into Bright's history with capital punishment in the US over the last four decades, making him ever so intimate with the criminal-legal system's myriad injustices, blatant race discrimination, and severe power imbalance in favor of the prosecution, before stepping back to analyze why the conversation of the role of race and poverty in capital punishment is so centered on the southern US, despite racism, poverty, and death sentences all existing in the north as well. Next, Bright and Kwak parse through the drastic power imbalance that comes from the simultaneous hyper-politicization of the legal system through prosecutors alongside the deprioritization and underfunding of public defense, walking countless examples of prosecutorial injustice and the malpractice of certain supposed public defenders. Bright and Kwak then focus on the Supreme Court case of McCleskey v. Kemp, and the eventual decision that, despite overwhelming evidence of racist bias in the endorsement, sentencing, and execution of the death sentence, said bias cannot be used as an argument in individual cases, in “fear of too much justice, before wrapping up by walking through the compiling and countless injustices of the criminal legal system and its death penalty. Katherine Stewart then walks Emma through the greater history of the Claremont Institute, and its evolution from a standard conservative think tank to the far-right, anti-democratic, neo-confederate thought leader that it is today – playing host to multiple Trump co-conspirators. Stewart begins by tackling the basis for the institution's radicalization, including who the major players were, and the bigoted arguments they were able to put forth, from gender and race segregation to citing public Nazis as inspiration, before wrapping up with its culmination in the battle against “woke,” the right's attacks on education, and their ultimate goal of affirmative action for conservative men. And in the Fun Half: Emma tackles the renters' nightmare that is the modern-day United States, Dave from Jamaica critiques recent “male loneliness discourse,” Tim Pool and Moonlord eviscerate the non-existent authoritarian hygiene and total-lockdown policies of the COVID-19 pandemic, and Noel from Queens tackles the Democrats' need to be aggressive about literally anything. Newsmax goes all-in on homophobia, a Televangelist comes for Barbie's Dreamhouse, and Bailey from NC expands on the hell of economic life in America, plus, your calls and IMs!

Stephen James is founder of Raw Attraction Magazine, the Heart Initiation Academy, and The Steve Experience. He tells about his journey towards healing his heart and aligning with his divine plan. This conversation covers topics such as the definition of mindfulness, the role of God in his life, and his experiences with psychedelics and trauma healing. Steve emphasizes the importance of being mindful of the connection to one's higher self, heart, soul, and God, and shares his experiences with body-based and somatic-based practices, stand-up comedy, and sacred sexuality. He also recommends book and music resources for mindfulness.

Aligning with Divine Plan [00:03:24] Steve James talks about how he discovered the concept of divine plan and divine self when he was around 28-29 years old, after experiencing consecutive heartbreaks and going down a broken path. He also shares how God plays a role in his divine plan. Healing Trauma [00:09:42] Steve James talks about how he felt the need to heal the trauma trapped inside his body, which he learned from Dr. Peter Levine's book, "Waking the Tiger". He also shares how he worked through his traumas and hasn't had any experience with substances since 2018. Healing Journey [00:10:45] Steve James talks about his journey towards healing his psychological and nervous system through body-based and somatic-based practices. True Divine Self [00:11:43] Steve James explains the concept of the True Divine Self, which involves healing the inner child, inner masculine, and inner feminine, and how it can help navigate gender issues and achieve balance. Living in Prague [00:17:20] Steve James shares his reasons for moving to Prague, including financial and personal reasons, and how he finds the city to be architecturally and culturally balanced. Standup Comedy [00:20:53] Steve James talks about his experience with standup comedy, the nerves that come with it, and his style of comedy. Ecstatic Rebirth [00:24:09] Steve James discusses his ongoing journey towards his ecstatic rebirth, which involves sacred sexuality, shamanism, and letting go of wounds. Bullying and Mindfulness [00:29:15] Steve James shares his childhood experience of being bullied and how mindfulness could have made a difference. He also talks about a collective bullying situation. Justice and Truth [00:30:12 - 00:34:03] Steve James talks about the importance of justice and truth from a mindful perspective, including the need to speak out against abuse and bullying, and to push for healing and justice on a societal level. Influence and Emotions [00:34:18 - 00:35:25] Steve James discusses the influence of his father on his mindfulness journey, and how mindfulness helps him deal with his emotions by navigating the map of consciousness and getting to neutral. Extreme Mindfulness [00:36:41 - 00:39:54] Steve James recommends two books related to mindfulness: "Man's Search for Meaning" by Victor Frankl and "The Gospel of Thomas," and suggests using music apps to help with mindfulness and creativity. He also emphasizes the importance of self-care, self-love, and compassion during the current "great awakening" and chaotic times. [show-notes-influence] Effect on Emotions (00:34:43) - Well, when you have the mindful structure that we mentioned about the map of consciousness, and you're aware of that map of consciousness, right? Then you can navigate your emotions much easier because you are going to get to neutral and then love more quickly because you know where they are. And the scary, like, okay, I'm angry now and let's get to neutral as quickly as possible so I can at least look at the circumstance in a different way. Um, and it's fine to be angry even if we're the most enlightened being in the, the universe. I mean, Christ was still angry at the money changes and everything else that was going on on this planet. You, you still can be angry, but get to neutral and then make a decision. [show-notes-emotions] Thoughts on Breathing (00:35:37) - Regarding breathing, I will mention the neurologist, Andrew Huberman. He was talking about it on a video, and this double breath in with the nose and then out.  with the mouth when you are slightly stressed. He talks about it from a neurological perspective, but, it essentially decreases the stress in whatever situations. You are having a heated conversation with someone, and you want to calm down a little bit. They don't even particularly know you're doing it, or maybe they do notice, but it doesn't really matter. It deregulates your system and makes you calm, and calms the nervous system. [show-notes-breathing] Suggested Resources Book: Man's Search For Meaning by Victor Frankl Book: Bible - The Gospel of Thomas App: Spotify / Youtube [show-notes-resources] Bullying Story (00:29:15) - Well, I was thinking about this question cause you put it on the email before and it depends which situation. I'll probably give you two situations. One from my childhood and then one collective one. Uh, so the childhood, my, I think every kid at my school was bullied in, in some sense by just looking back, it seemed like even the big guys, which I was sort of probably a middle rung, had my humor. People kind of liked me quite, uh, most people were like me cuz of my humor and, and, um, my sporting abilities. But there were still a group who were so-called friends who decided to write a book of hate about me and got everyone to sign it, which was my whipping against the wall as most other, some of my other guys were thrown into trash cans and got, and like, you know, had worse dealings than me. Words of Wisdom (00:39:54) - Well, as we step deeper into this, I think we're, as collectively going through a great awakening at the moment in, in 2023, and this is a great thing that Bruce is doing, is this a mindfulness podcast that because we, we need to take more self-care, we need to take more self-loving actions to us as we go through this great awakening. As things unfold, the truth unfolds more and more. We have to become more self-loving and, uh, compassionate to our fellow humans. So every moment that we spend taking care of ourselves means that we are overflowing our cup to, uh, fill others. So I think that's, uh, probably the most mindful way I could end this, because there, I think I see more chaos coming on the horizon and, uh, it's gonna be a time to, uh, navigate your ship, uh, to the, the shores of calm waters, um, and calm land, uh, via self-awareness, self-love, self-responsibility, and mindfulness.

He tells us about the good and bad aspects of the community and how it led him to founding his own magazine that's for sex, relationships, and spirituality for men and women.Stephen talks about joining many communities that were involved in deepening your sexuality. He also shares how some of these communities broke up because of their cult-like behaviors. He tells us about learning to have full body orgasms with or without a partner and practices that help with that. We talk about how sex and relationships are looked at in modern society and how we can intend to have deeper relationships and more pleasurable connective sex. Stephen talks about the importance of bringing intention into your life and your relationships as well. Stephen also talks about healthy intentions to have before sex.http://www.steve.gifts/ Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Stephen James comments: "No-fap maximalist Luke Ford has made a pilgrimage to "manly" beach to play his stop wanking hypnotherapy tapes on loudspeaker. This is a man on a mission." https://twitter.com/MuskMaximalist/status/1592254475980660736 The more calm and centered I feel, the fewer dumb things I do to myself and to others. If I can change my state, I can change my life. Without taking steps, my default is way too often to be frantic. I chase my tail.

Doris writes: “Commitment to globalism threatens to poison understandings of self and others with disappointment and resentment on the one hand and delusion and hero-worship on the other. In fact, engaging situationism can enable loving relationships, because affection for others would not be contingent on their conformity to unrealistic standards of character. With luck, a situationist tuning of the emotions could increase our ever-short supply of compassion, forgiveness, and fair-mindedness. And these are things worth having in greater abundance.” https://lukeford.net/blog/?p=140115 Join this channel to get access to perks: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCSFVD7Xfhn7sJY8LAIQmH8Q/join https://odysee.com/@LukeFordLive, https://lbry.tv/@LukeFord, https://rumble.com/lukeford https://dlive.tv/lukefordlivestreams Listener Call In #: 1-310-997-4596 Superchat: https://entropystream.live/app/lukefordlive Bitchute: https://www.bitchute.com/channel/lukeford/ Soundcloud MP3s: https://soundcloud.com/luke-ford-666431593 Code of Conduct: https://lukeford.net/blog/?p=125692 https://www.patreon.com/lukeford http://lukeford.net Email me: lukeisback@gmail.com or DM me on Twitter.com/lukeford Support the show | https://www.streamlabs.com/lukeford, https://patreon.com/lukeford, https://PayPal.Me/lukeisback Facebook: http://facebook.com/lukecford Feel free to clip my videos.

Key Conversation Points: Why is Christie afraid of mediocrity? Scared of being normal? Let's not miss out on an experience because we're trying to make it extraordinary!  There is grace in muddling through the unique transitions and goodbyes that aren't ordinary or daily. We can do it differently than our past.  If you're wanting to mark a ritual as something special, you may not have to look far.  Lower the bar in a healthy way.  Give yourself permission to be a human.

In this colorful, rich episode, we take a look into the importance of visual and narrative elements in accompanying microtonal music and its ideas. Stephen James Taylor does this not only through writing music in film, but also through his own visual content, such as in “Surfing the Sonic Sky,” an important documentary about Erv Wilson. Among the topics discussed here are: how to approach microtonality in film composition (mixing that with 12-TET), dosage control, the emotions one can only get from microtonal music, and hearing different instruments played with cool effects! We'll also spill the beans on how to get tons of Chinese gongs for a cheap price…   Doing something new: for each Now&Xen episode made (often), I'm trying to create a cover or transcription. For this episode, I'm planning to transcribe Stephen James Taylor's “Quantum 7” performance from YouTube (though I haven't been able to complete this yet).

Understanding the emotions of boys is a challenge no matter the age. Anxiety that presents as anger or distraction. Depression shows up as low-grade irritability. David Thomas returns to the show to answer listener questions about all things boy. David is a family therapist and director at DayStar Counseling Center in Nashville. He has lots of experience counseling families and children and has a set of twin boys himself. We talk about teaching our sons about emotional language, going to counseling, helping sibling relationships, and managing boy energy levels. “I think we need to be clear with boys. I think it's always helpful to use concrete language with them. When we're concise, clear, and concrete, those are kind of three rules of thumb, we can consistently be adopting. The mistake that I think we can make is we kind of soft pedal and dance around things.” If you are a parent of boys, this is an episode for you!
