Stephen Jenkins plays a guy who immediately leaves his wife when he gets a cool job, after years of her taking care of him. Was she mean? Nah, they didn't smash parts as much as they used to and she wants a baby, so he's like "later" . What's a lady to do? Practice the... Art of Revenge!!!! This a listener pick. Thanks, Paul! He sent this thing right to my house!

What makes Third Eye Blind a standout band from the 90s era? Join Matt and Samer as we reminisce about the unforgettable impact of their music, exploring why their debut album remains a top contender among the best of its time. Alongside Samer's all-time favorite track, "Narcolepsy," we weave tales from the band's history, spotlighting Stephen Jenkins as the constant force behind their evolving sound. Venture into the deeper, sometimes darker, corners of Third Eye Blind's discography with us as we shine a light on their second album, "Blue." With tracks like "Never Let You Go" and "Wounded," the band masterfully intertwines upbeat melodies with poignant themes of heartbreak and recovery. We explore how their innovative use of spoken word elements paved the way for future bands, such as Imagine Dragons, to tackle heavy topics while maintaining a captivating alt-rock vibe. The journey doesn't stop there. As we move through the band's later albums, from "Ursa Major" to "Dopamine," we witness their artistic growth and adaptability. The band's storytelling matures with each album, capturing deeper narratives and personal themes, like the rumored breakup with Charlize Theron in "Say It." From the ethereal vibes of "We Are Drugs" to the empowering sounds of "Screamer," featuring Alexis Krauss, Third Eye Blind shows us why they remain a relevant force in today's music scene. https://open.spotify.com/playlist/1MHiQQ9ySBy9tykI4Uvs2m?si=4a726dc99adf4856https://music.apple.com/us/playlist/super-awesome-intro-to-third-eye-blind/pl.u-d2b0MoltLKN0YEA1.

In my house, like in most houses in America there is a fireplace. My wife and I do not often use our fireplace. In fact, I am not even sure if it works. Now that there are more efficient forms of heating installed in most homes there is really no need for fireplaces, but they continue to be built all the same. Any interior decorator or homemaker worth their salt will tell you that whether or not a fireplace works it cannot be blocked, and furniture must be placed so that people can gather around it. The style of houses that we build today are still based on the same basic floor plan of the ancient Roman style of architecture. In Rome, houses were built around a lares, or hearth fires, where penates, ancestral gods of the family, were revered and guarded the home. Even though most Americans could not tell you why the hearth is afforded such significance, it is still agreed upon in western design language that the hearth is significant. The origin of the hearth idea in western architecture is one example of the many ways that the religious impulse indirectly recognizes a connection to our ancestors. As humans we long for transpersonal and trans-generational connectedness. Jungian oriented therapists help clients cultivate the transcendental and reflective skills that a well-developed spiritual dimension brings into our lives. Inhale, exhale Forward, back Living, dying: Arrows, let flown each to each Meet midway and slice The void in aimless flight Thus I return to the source. –Japanese Death Poem Gesshu Soko, died January 10, 1696, at age 79: Stephen Jenkins is a palliative care counselor and writer that I admire. In his writing, he makes the argument that western culture has an unhealthy avoidance of the reality of death. Jenkins writes that that the fear of death in our society has robbed us of a spiritual dimension and tools for everyday life that ancient civilizations have always had. Acceptance of one's own mortality and acknowledging one's ancestors are directly related concepts. Jenkins' argument is that acceptance of death is what gives a culture the ability to make meaning and understand its own story. If we deny or disregard death as an important part of our human experience, then we can never make meaning of our own lives. We must embrace this important part of our humanity if we are to be able to make ourselves whole (Wilson, T 2009). As a society we hide children from the dying, and often even from the elderly; not allowing young people to understand this important stage in the life journey. We do not value the wisdom of the aged; we simply treat their cultural experience as out of date. It is our general cultural practice to pretend that we are immortal. We hide from death and all the trappings of death until it is too late. We wait until we are at the end of our life journey and we have not developed any tools to help us understand how to die. This practice is to our own deficit and the deficit of our culture. Jenkins argues in his interviews that our culture needs to embrace death and the process of dying in order to reclaim the spirituality our culture has lost (Wilson, T 2009). It's your life. You don't know how long it's going to be but you know it's got a bad ending. –Don Draper Mad Men; Season 2, Episode 9 Spirituality in most religions contains a meditative or contemplative component used to orient one's priorities, clarify goals and values, and discover one's own personal identity and agency within the world. Although spirituality is a vague concept that can mean many things to many people, most therapists agree on the importance of spirituality in the therapeutic process. One of the major benefits of spirituality in therapy is that spirituality assists clients in understanding their place in the world, and helps clients accept their own finitude and mortality. This is true whether a person's spiritual tradition advocates belief in an afterlife, a multi-layered reality, or simply a scientific materialist understanding of the world. Regardless of an individual's spiritual tradition, an active spiritual life will help a therapist engage an individual in important reflective personal questions. Personal spirituality is different from organized religion. Developing one's own personal spirituality distinct from the organized religion you participate in is important because it allows individuals to answer questions and face struggles unique to their own life. There is much diversity between different individuals' life course trajectories. What works for one person may not work for another person. Developing one's own personal spiritual dimension inside or outside of an organized religion increases an individual's self-efficacy and individual human capacity for choice-making. A robust spiritual dimension allows individuals to solve problems that arise in the life course in the best way for them, according to their own strengths and weaknesses. This self-efficacy is an important protective factor for individuals as they develop throughout the life course. This protective factor can help individuals avoid many problems as they traverse the various stages of life. In the book The Denial of Death, Ernest Becker puts forth a hypothesis that won him the Pulitzer Prize, and changed the way many cognitive theorists thought about therapy. Becker argued that human cognition is a defense mechanism against the knowledge that we must die. Many drives within humanity are attempts to make ourselves immortal and find ways of obtaining spiritual immortality. Becker put forward the idea that anxiety, depression, and even psychosis can be attributed to the breakdown in our immortality seeking processes. Becker argued that human beings long for secular and religious accomplishments because we believe that these will make us immortal. Becker argued that cognitive problems arise when our culture lacks the spiritual and numinous dimension that allows us to understand death and accept our finitude (Becker, E. 1973). The part of Becker's theory that is most applicable to therapy and social work practice is his idea of immortality. Becker's idea of immortality is much more involved than simply an idea of an afterlife in popular culture and religion. In The Denial of Death immortality is the way that a person finds their significance, self-worth, and meaning in relation to the universe (Becker, E. 1973). We attain spiritual immortality when we have a well-developed spiritual dimension that allows us to feel connected to the past, others in the present and to future generations. It is this connectedness that allows us to feel spiritually immortal and come to terms with our mortality. In the ancient world heroic deeds and religious traditions were an attempt to feel connectedness to a numinous reality larger than the time ancients lived within. Becker argues that nothing but spirituality of some kind can give humans the connectedness to the fabric of our world and provide us the spiritual immortality we long for. One of the reasons that Becker's theories were so successful is that they build on the basic assumption that all human beings know at a fundamental level that we will one day die. Because of this we are all in a sense already dead. This knowledge is an intrinsic part of our humanity that we must learn how to handle, or it will lead us to destroy ourselves. The reason that this is important to include in a discussion of spirituality in psychotherapy practice is that this theory of therapy makes spirituality an essential component in the therapeutic process. The problem of death in our own and in our clients' lives must be solved in order to live a fulfilling life. This cannot be done without the transcendent quality of spiritual practice. In my own life I find Becker's spiritual immortality in what will be preserved of me in how I change the world for the better. I personally have no interest in the concept of the afterlife in my own religious tradition, but I do not need that to feel motivated and important. Sharing love that changes the lives of those around me and the lives of those they will touch is where I find immortality. What will be preserved of me is the impression that I leave on this world through how I live my life and affect the lives of others. The presence of me will be preserved by people who likely do not recognize or understand what they are preserving. We are all released into the earth, and into the stuff of the heart, and the mind, the character of others, and the lives of everyone who antecedes us. A piece of the things that are part of me will become part of everyone whom I become a part of. The things that made me who I am did not come only from me; but also from those before me and how they shaped the world. The juice of ourselves was never ours, but something we borrowed from countless others. This is not something that would make sense to everyone, but it is what makes sense to me. Life is chaotic and overwhelming to the best of us. To understand it we need a lens to view our world in a way that makes sense to us. When we develop our own spiritual dimension it can act as the lens that lets us understand our world. Our personal spirituality tells us why we are unique and special. It gives us the immortality that Becker describes in a way that we decide is important to us. A robust spiritual dimension can help us live life intentionally, mindfully and effectively.

Every stock market correction is unique, with its own causes and consequences. There are some similarities between the current market decline and past declines.Take today's example; following a period of speculation and excess that began in 2020, tech stocks have taken a beating, some from as early as Q2 2021. It's reminiscent of the tech rout in 2000, when value stocks outperformed technology stocks.In fact, value stocks are outperforming, and providing both meaningful relative positive returns, across the board in this stock market rout. Value is outperforming in large-cap U.S., small-cap U.S. segments, foreign-developed stocks and emerging market stocks. If you're wondering whether this resurgence in value stocks is fleeting, it's advisable to recall that the forces that are shaping inflation and inflationary volatility are likely to outlast our expectations, our hopes.Value investing great Stephen Jenkins, Co-CIO, and Portfolio Manager, and Jackie Au, Portfolio Manager, Sionna Investment Managers join us this episode for an enlightening and insightful conversation, sharing their wisdom about value investing's long term durability, how they do value investing, the relative underperformance of value factor vs. growth factor (value stocks did what value stocks always do, but they didn't do as well as growth stocks), and how the regime change of inflationary volatility and rising rates that has crushed growth stocks is favourable to value investors.We also get a good look at some of the names and sectors they favour, with Stephen and Jackie talking about names they are holding, that fulfill their definitions of value.==================================Where to find the Stephen Jenkins and Jackie Au:==================================Stephen Jenkins, Co-CIO, Sionna Investment ManagersJackie Au on LinkedinSionna Investments==================================Where to find the Raise Your Average crew:==================================ReSolve Asset ManagementReSolve Asset Management BlogMike Philbrick on LinkedinRodrigo Gordillo Adam Butler on LinkedinPierre Daillie on LinkedinJoseph Lamanna on LinkedinAdvisorAnalyst.com*****"You don't have to be brilliant, just wiser than the other guys, on average, for a long time."

We Podded Ourselves The Whole Gun This is it. The last episode of the only Sopranos podcast ever made. Load it into a yellow Xterra, push the Nissan out to sea, and set it ablaze for a proper New Jersey Italian Viking funeral. Joining Matt and Vince to discuss “Made In America” and close out the series, the Dennis Eckersly of podcasting, from Defector, David J. Roth. Where were you when The Sopranos cut o black? Screaming at the TV? Calling your cable company? Remembering 9/11? 11.9 million people watched (there better be just as many people listening to this episode) as Meadow parked, Tony looked up, and Journey implored everyone watching to continue believing. Believe in what exactly? What was David Chase trying to tell us with that song? Considering he chose Don't Stop Believing just because everyone in the production crew hated it, I think he was trying to say *mouthfarrrrrrt*. What a sh*thead legend. That's what a grown-up AJ would do. You don't like the song at the end of the TV show? You know we're killing civilians in the Middle East everyday right? And this is how you spend your time? Upset at the song at the end of your favorite TV show? What rough beast yeets towards Bethlehem to be born. As indicated by this final, AJ-centric episode, the world belongs to the AJs now. Be safe and don't use too many slurp juices on one ape. It's been an honor to be a part of such a fun thing that so many people enjoyed. We had a  great time making it, and it wouldn't have been possible without all our guests, cured meats,  the decline of the American Empire, classic rock, autotune, HBO, David Beckham, fish and chips, *Borat voice* our wives,  Raytheon, New Jersey, George Soros, The Sopranos sound design team, Prozac, track suits, Stevie B, Little Steven, Steve Buscemi, The American Italian Anti-Defamation League, and of course, Stephen Jenkins.

Cystinosis is a rare genetic metabolic disease that causes the amino acid, cysteine, to accumulate within the body's cells. The build-up can cause damage to the tissues and organs including the kidney, eyes, muscles, liver and brain. Tune in to hear about the journey that Clay and Stephen took to become strong advocates for their children and for the community.

Road Cast. Stephen Jenkins a lyrical genius? River Dance commercial and my fear of venomous snakes.

How’s it gonna be when Stephen Jenkins sues this podcast? I hope you liked last week’s parody songs and Third Eye Blind frontman anecdotes, because the newest episode of Pod Yourself A Gun has more of both. Amelia Cady joins Matt & Vince to talk about The Sopranos Season four episode two, No Show. Listen to the podcast to hear Amelia describe Matt on Heroin, Stephen Jenkins prancing away from an argument, and how Tony Soprano’s raw animal magnetism drives her desire to exhume Gandolfini’s body so she can doo doo doo, doo doo-doo do him. Some other topics covered are Meadow Soprano's gap year ambitions, Carmela's sick Mary Higgins Clark related burn, a gay mafioso named Don Purple, Young Vince's encounter with Anthony Kiedis, and how Matt was just a little too poor to join the fingering cult. Even in their reductionism, Amelia, Matt, and Vince have quite interesting things to say about death and loss. Just getting what you want is for babies. We want five star reviews on Apple Podcasts.

It’s no longer the nineties on the latest Pod Yourself a Gun. Matt and Vince are joined by Max Collins of Eve 6 and the @eve6 twitter account, to discuss the first episode of Season 4 of the Sopranos, For All Debts Public and Private. Before getting into the episode, Max and Matt swap stories about their run-ins with Third Eye Blind frontman, and possibly world’s most confident man, Stephen Jenkins. The consensus is Jenkins is abrasive, but mostly a good hang. You could say people are semi-charmed by him. This is the first post 9/11 Sopranos, meaning we have officially left the nineties, so please pause here for a moment of silence to remember Matt’s mashup of Butterfly by Crazytown and Meadow Soprano saying “it’s the nineties." Thank you for respecting the moment of silence. We’re sad to see it go, but the good lord taketh and giveth because we lost that song, but we get a new song on today’s episode that is the early frontrunner for PYAG season 4’s song of the season award. Season 3’s went to Bread Pies, of course. Give it a listen, and hey, don't worry about us. We're just chipping.

Mike is an independent Funeral Celebrant and Dying Doula. He runs workshops on 'death and dying' including Dying To Talk sessions, creating safe spaces to talk about death. He offers support to families to help them make informed choices about all aspects of dying and Funerals, especially Home Funerals.   I met Mike at one of his death and dying workshops about 10 years ago and it prompted to me think about death differently. His approach is 180 degrees away from the 24 hour funeral service approach. We talked about the impact of World War 1 on attitudes to death, how his mother died, using Zoom at funerals in lockdown and talking to the bees.   His freethinking recommendations: ‘Die Wise' by Stephen Jenkins and a film about him called 'Griefwalker' at https://www.nfb.ca/film/griefwalker/    Please support more Freethinking episodes on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/lauradodsworth

This week, speaking from their homes in Santa Fe as the pandemic continues to ravage life all over earth, Camille and Tanya plunge into the multi-layered sensation of this moment, namely, grief.  How do we meet it, befriend it, re-story it into something of value and importance?  Throughout time, as humans we have been overwhelmed and terrified of feeling grief. It manifests through us and touches every aspect of our lives. In this conversation while speaking of mentors and healers on this topic, including Stephen Levine, Camille and Tanya speak about how they have been learning to meet, rather than avoid, the topic and all that accompanies it. Sharings on: How to let go of our personal dreams at this time in the collective The price we pay for ignoring our "unattended sorrow" Teachings and inspiration from poets and wisdom teachers including Stephen Levine, David Whyte and Peter Levine.  Moving from isolation in grief and into community Camille speaks on what it means to be able to process grief in health care systems and how un-met grief is related to burn out in doctors and nurses. Being re-triggered in former loss each time we experience new loss and how to honor and integrate it.  Tanya tells a story of a hospital stay related to anticipatory grieving in this pandemic. Grief as a zen bell..."wake up, wake up, wake up"   Episode Transcript   [00:00:02] Hi, welcome to podcast. Number four today, Tanya and I are going to be talking about restoring grief and to begin, I'm going to read a quote from Stephen Maligns book called Unattended Sorrow.    [00:00:15] If we listen for unattended sorrow, as we might for a cry from a crib in the next room, we can hear it calling to us to have mercy on ourselves and move it forward with a heart full examination of our lingering disappointment and distress. Instead of turning our back on it, when we turn away from our sorrows, we intensify our pain and close off parts of ourselves.    [00:00:46] And. I love that so much.    [00:00:50] Yeah, I mean, I loved and Stephen, of course, is like Stephen Vine just such has been such a voice for a long time. When I was in New York City and I was twenty seven right before I came to Santa Fe. That was really the first big spiritual book I ever got. Was his book Healing into Life and Death. At the time, it was in the middle of the AIDS crisis and I don't remember if somebody gave me that book. And I was I felt young to have that book about mortality and death and dying. And it was, you know, just just he just everything he always talks about, it's so profound in that concept of unintended sorrow is so heartbreaking and so poetic at once to me when I think we all have.    [00:01:41] A certain amount of unintended sorrow. Just living in Western culture. Because, you know, we're not supported in facing our suffering and facing grief. You know, we are you know, we're sort of conditioned to bypass a lot of that. And instead of going deeper into our humanity.    [00:02:00] And so, you know, it reminds me of something David White says, that when you have a big event in your life, that there's that you're you're moving toward a big event like the loss of a job, a death, an illness, a divorce. Like what we're facing now globaly with this pandemic. You know, he said we hit those walls with this tremendous velocity and then everything kind of like has to fall apart because we have not kept up with our lives. And I think that for me, this idea of unattended sorrow is one of the ways that we're not keeping up with our lives. And so when it hits, it is such a shock to the system.    [00:02:45] Totally. I mean, a complete shock to the system. And, you know, and and there's something to I mean, I just noticed that of myself. I was having a conversation with my husband today because something like hits, right? And then have all of the unattended sorrows of the past come out. We were talking because, you know, every time he meets grief or or things falling away because things are out of control, he goes back to when he lost his daughter, who was eleven years old, from cancer. But there's this whole recycling almost. But I'm also thinking about grief and from our conversation and how projection. It's like this at the unattended star almost to me, it's like get out a projection. It's almost like the Zen bell is in it. Like when it comes on fast and hard like this.    [00:03:43] Let go, let go, let go, let go, let go.    [00:03:46] You know, we were going to build didn't let us show where we're talking about it six weeks ago. You know, he was up for possibly a role in any New York City theater production, implosive. You know, and his two films had come out and now all those film festivals are canceled in an artist a mile and started the way my business was going. And these things align. And then it's like here it is, the Zen step, right. And when the Zen stick comes that our projections or our human desires to control it come like like up like a force unto me. Somehow what they're they're carrying or covering, I should say maybe they're covering it are the unattended sorrows. And then the way in are our day to day life. We're trying not to feel all of that and we're trying to just stay on the course of these these these big are big life, you know, parks, or so we think. But then this other force is like a tsunami in some way.    [00:04:48] Does that make sense? It makes a lot of sense. I mean, to me see, I'm feeling that. On the one hand, you know this we are talking about velocity and kind of even the noises you made in the crashing and the image of a tsunami and how much power there is behind that and simultaneously how Greece brings us down. And so to me, it's this sort of the juxtaposition behind the power and how Greece slows us down, whether we like it or not. And I've been noticing that in myself, which is partly why we decided to talk about restoring Greek today because of what's going on in the world. And you and I are so fortunate to be seeing clients on zoom in to be where we are and to be relatively safe. And I and and yet I feel like because I'm and I'm sensitive like many, most people are and all people are natural. It really is is that I get tired. I think I was telling you, like I'm getting really worn out by like two in the afternoon. I want to go calling dad. My rhythms are off. I've been getting up in the morning and just making myself walk at least two and a half to former, whether it's windy or cold or whatever. And just really forcing my that just is like a non-negotiable now, my physical health. But I think I'm still really feeling this collective grief. So there's this thing that, you know, grief is personal, but it's also collective. And I. It takes me to the image of, you know, the Aspen Forest, how the Aspen trees look like individual trees. But they're actually one organism connected by a common root system underground. And I think we've maybe used that metaphor before in the podcast. But I think when I think about collective grief, like we're our root systems are connected and we're feeling these things and it's really with me for some reason today, I guess I'm really feeling well.    [00:06:50] There's something to even about. Yeah, I'm I'm noticing that I'm hitting a kind of wall energetically and self-care is just non negotiable. Drinking water, taking walks, taking vitamins, being really vigilant about what I'm eating, all of it. And of course, we're being called to boost our immune systems. Take care of ourselves. But it's a deeper thing. And I you know what you said about collective grief for me my entire life, I've kind of been unkind of somebody who receives a lot of information about it event at the front end, which, of course, you know, know this. But our listeners don't. At the very beginning of this event, I was in the hospital overnight and never have been in my life.    [00:07:38] But several times in my life, I've had this experience of kind of because you and I are both impacts that I know many of our listeners are impacts, you know, sensitives healers.    [00:07:53] A lot of coaches, facilitators, health care workers as well as artists tend to be writers. That's right. So we're almost like the canary in a coal mine thing. We're feeling it before it even happens. So for me, I ended up in the hospital and I realized because I was having live racing heart stuff and wanted to do the EKG and all that. But ultimately for me, the way out. What I realized has happened is I was feeling this what's happening? It made me collapse actually, before it even happened. And you and I, of course, all up talk a lot about point in time. And and the people are had different people based on our sort of nervous systems and our energetic spiritual systems. Grief is hitting us all in different levels of waves. So it's almost to me like collectively, some of us are feeling it more intensely at different times, almost like. And talking about going back to the root system of the Aspen's. I think we're we're all not only crossing assessing individual grief, but collective grief and that this is the grief of a love, a way of life. And even if there were toxic elements have been many, many toxic elements in this way of life. There's no spiritual bypass away from our human meeting, the feelings. And as the comfort of that way of life is stripped away. And it's a thing even I remember years ago when I was going through a divorce, the minister who married my former husband and I. He said something that really touched me related to this. He said, I know you're not just reading the individual. You're grieving a dream.    [00:09:44] And right now, globaly. We're grieving, right?    [00:09:50] The dream only collective dream. You know, it's interesting when you're in the hospital, you know, I I went and I was with you for a short time in the E.R. and it was sort of it was the beginning of the lockdown time for the virus, for the virus. So it was a scary time. And one day and I had a migraine headache. I wasn't feeling well. I had really bad allergies. It was just this was almost like there was this perfect storm. Right. Totally. One thing I didn't share with you. Speaking of grief, I realized it. It didn't hit me for a few days after that. What I realized just, you know, I worked in an emergency department and the room you were in may not have been the exact one, but it was in the same cluster little area where I actually was with the 12 year old boy who died when Camille. And so, I mean, that was one of the most significant experiences of my life. I had to too much to go into in this podcast and just to say. I had some really difficult times working in that emergency department as a new nurse, and it was all right there with me when we were there. And to be there with you when you and I are are so close and you were having the sort of the scary events that you were having. And then to have it be right in that same place. Right. I was 20 years ago at a very traumatic time with this 12 year old boy who was at that time just a year older than my daughter.    [00:11:26] And.    [00:11:29] Just incredible. You know how, again, your life can sort of come together, and then there was the.    [00:11:33] Then there was the feeling of what it was like being in the hospital at that time during the covered 19 lockdown. I mean, it was really surreal.    [00:11:46] It was very surreal. And it's so wild. We're sharing this now for the first time. Not even we didn't do it with each other because it was in the same bank that my daughter almost died before she was diagnosed with asthma and had the whole breathing respiratory thing, which, of course, as a mother. She's 22 and lives in Chicago has been a big fear. And one of the few covered patients in Santa Fe at that time was wheeled out of one of those rooms. And by. And so one thing I discovered, though, as I was in the hospital alone that night, I thought, well, isn't this interesting? Because we're heading into this dark, dark time. And there was some kind of spiritual kind of thing for me. And it sounds like for you to be like, OK, like we're having to meet our shadows again. We're circling around back towards grief. We're circling back toward some old trauma, some old fear. And then in this moment, you know, the distress and the new thing, too. And sometimes I do feel as a story worker and tracking patterns of stories with people. That we are brought right? It's the layers of the onion tube were brought back around with that story to meet it now new in this moment. And how are we going to be even more available? How are we going to be more intimate with this grief or with this revisiting? You know, I don't know what you do with that. Exactly. But like for me, it was something actually like the day after all, I left the hospital.    [00:13:29] I just felt joyful in the midst of all this because, of course, we know there is this relationship between grief and joy.    [00:13:38] When I met that grief and fear and I was there and I was scared and there was re triggering, but there was this exuberance that I felt and also a real connection. I would say on a spiritual level or soul level. I've just come another to another level of being prepared to step up in service at this time.    [00:14:00] You know, I think what it brings up for me is what it's like for the nurses and physicians, myself included, who are not working right now at the bedside. And it's, of course, like we have this privilege of being in the profession and supporting in different ways, but not taking the same risks that our colleagues are taking. And it really makes me want to cry because it reminds me of a.. It's like it's it's such a paradox, you know? That what is the book Waking the Tiger? Stephen Labi Not Stephen the line. I'm just having my little midlife brain moment. But anyway, waking the tiger, his last name is Levine.    [00:14:43] I think Peter Levine. Peter Levine I was combining Steve on the line with Peter will be. Yeah, but we got it together.    [00:14:52] We figured it out. So you write the story in that book about these kids that are buried under some kind of like a mudslide or landslide in a bus. And what they found is that the kids who were active in digging their way out were the ones who actually fared the best in terms of long term trauma, because it was because they worked it out.    [00:15:16] And I think when you get out in the body to thimbles, do moving through the trauma, not just a frozen response. Right.    [00:15:24] Right. And I do think that, you know, I think that for those of us who are not able to go help at this time, I think there's a little bit of that frustration of the freeze, too.    [00:15:35] Like, I mean, I could just sit here. I guess that's what's coming up for me right now. Makes me want to cry. But just the feeling that I'm feeling about it for nurses and physicians, especially because a lot of the allied staff were doing telehealth. But the people who who work with the body, who have to be there, you know, mostly nurses and physicians and support staff like, you know, a physician's assistant assistants, nurse practitioners, certified nursing assistants, you know. I I I just I guess I just have a lot of grief coming up about that, and it really brings up for me this, you know, project I've been working on for a long time that is now starting to sort of gain some momentum, which is taking a look at the systemic issues of health care. And one of the things I identified because I in my work, I look at splits like everything has the right to belong in a certain order to each other, in order for there to be systemic help and organizational health.    [00:16:40] And one of the things I discovered is just how nurses and physicians really are in a way systemically pitted against one another.    [00:16:50] And and, you know, the nursing and medicine, they don't get along on Capitol Hill and they don't get along in a lot of leadership positions. Now, a lot of nurses and physicians get along. You know, when they're there working at the bedside. But there are still these dynamics. And I just it just recommits me to this movement of finding ways for nurses and physicians to align, because if we could do that, we could transform health care. There are almost a million physicians and there are four million nurses. And if we could come together and work together, we would be five million strong in this country. But we can't seem to like how are we ever going to have change if we can't bring. You know, some some collaborative peace making and understanding to our two tribes. That feels really, really important to me. And I've talked with actually more physicians even than nurses about this. I feel like speaking of restoring and getting some of the story beneath the story as a nurse for where physicians are and have been out with that, that's deepened my awareness and understanding and and help me grow my empathy. And I'm I'm just really excited about bringing these two things together. So that's of interesting Segway. I wasn't expecting to go there in this conversation of grief, but don't you think, too.    [00:18:16] OK. So thinking about the patriarchy that we talk about so much and it's deep. The way that it is so deeply embedded in each one of us, regardless of gender. But in a patriarchy, there's always a hierarchy. There's there's. It's not viewed as a different valuable role. It's, you know, the way we marginalize the feminine. And again, not about gender. The way we we the way to be. We glorify the intellect. We marginalize the deeper gut wisdom, body wisdom, hands on soul mate wisdom in the moment. I mean, and where the nursing profession, you know, the root system with the the healers and the midwives and the women who have always been there for birth and for death and for the tending. And then once again, the glorification of science, of Western medicine, and not to also dishonor all the gifts of that. But when will we? It's very much like a marriage to me in a marriage where both people aren't honored equally for their contributions. But you know, the split again. So. So in terms of the shift that's happening now, how do you even see that? Supporting that and the grief for everybody when there's a split in any system and the grief and the fallout then. And the child in a family system, on the on the patient and on the innocence in the system that aren't even playing the dominant rules. What do you think about that?    [00:19:56] Well, I think that's absolutely right. And I think the thing we have to be really careful about is that we don't make this too complicated. I did a had a retreat through the Oslo symposia, which is now the equal project with just with the board members and. And it was such an amazing thing, we rented a house in Albuquerque and we cooked together and we had talking circles and we did some basic basic emotional intelligence kind of sharing exercises.    [00:20:34] And it was basic, basic, but it literally we all left there feeling completely rejuvenated. And there was one physician, a surgeon, who said, if I can do something like this, I think maybe I can stay in medicine. He was thinking about moving to another country and leaving medicine altogether. I mean, it had that much of an impact. And so it literally my vision for this really is that there would there would be these retreats where nurses and physicians come together outside of the system and they share with each other and they cook together and they, you know, talk about their families and they talk about their experiences. And this is the kind of healing that we need.    [00:21:14] It's this this human contact that we don't get in these really fast paced, you know, these systems where, you know, nurses and physicians both end up spending oftentimes more time looking at a screen than they do at the patients.    [00:21:33] And that is all of our lives. No, it isn't a cut. But this is the issue. Right. I mean, there's one thing we're all global, global and all. But where are we with our depth based work, our deep facilitation or artistry? And in the case of doctors and nurses. Like you said, interfacing, being with the humans that we're serving.    [00:21:56] Because if we don't, it causes moral distress.    [00:21:59] And if we have moral distress, that takes us back around to grief. Moral distress at its foundation is a loss. It's the grief for the loss of a way being connected to doing what what we came into the profession to do. And for many, many nurses and physicians, they feel that's been taken away from them.    [00:22:17] And there's so much grief around that. And really no languaging or no ways to to to approach it or to come together around it. And I put you know, the Dalai Lama says and many other people, Gerta and a lot of other people have said this. And I think it's really fascinating that love is understanding and understanding is love. And to me, that's what happens in these kinds of intimate retreat settings. You start to develop an understanding. I mean, I remember this same physician said something to me one time because he's a surgeon and this was something I didn't realize. But surgeons actually sometimes are are considered not even a physician. They're higher on the hierarchy chain. They're considered higher than a physician. So he said, you know, we're put up on a pedestal. And he said and once extracted from us on that pedestal. Like, it's like basically the price we pay for that is so deep. And so it really is it's this real side of the hierarchy hurts everyone. Dehumanization hurts everyone. And we were all walking around in grief. This is just one lens. This is just one sector of life that is up for us right now because of the pandemic.    [00:23:33] We're totally. It's huge. It's huge. And it's I think also there's an awakeness, though. Part it to me, the restoring is the gratitude, the appreciation, the we have everyday heroes in our midst who are willing to be here for us and to end to end at the cost of that profession, whatever role in it. Like you were talking about in the beginning with the twelve year old boy is a lot of grief. And I've been with you and talk to you when you left hospice bedsides of many beloved patients who have died. I remember, you know, conversations and stories over the years. I've certainly been at my own bedsides of just people in my life who have died. But one of the things that to me is so huge to us. Coming back to this culture once again, we're meant we're set up to deal with grief and isolation when what it's all about. It's not even just like you said. Yes, formal retreats. But to me, story circles right the way we come together, you and I. The intimacy and our friendship every day. But the and that we go that we allow ourselves to go really deep with the conditioning, isn't there? In many families still and certainly not in many cultures and many systems. But it's like to me, this is what we need. You know, I just always am making this this this with my hands. The circles, the circles, the circles, because the circles of the feminine. They're that medicine to the hierarchy. Cause when we get together in circles. Right. It takes us back to our egalitarian roots. It takes us back to our tribal roots. Are indigenous roots in a circle. Everybody belongs in a circle. Everybody's voice. You know, again, indigenous cultures, the talking sticks that everyone matters. And it just feels to me that there's so much going back to Stephen's words in the beginning of this piece, unattended sorrow. When our voices are run over, when there's no place for our voices. Like I work with so many women and men, maybe they're 40 years old or maybe they're 50, 60 in their 70s, 80s. I've worked with elders, as you know, working with them, writing that need to give voice to. And it's like to just say, this is my story. Somebody see, I'm here. This is somebody able to acknowledge that I existed and I mattered and I matter. And, you know, the basic needs around being just seen and heard and valued and how the systems in this culture are set up not to value or to make people feel valued, but that somehow, like the medicine or the circles we talk about all the times we're circles we create. And I'm just thinking about your thoughts on how people can just create that sense of circle or that sense of retreat like in their day to day life if they're feeling, you know, far away to you.    [00:26:42] How do you create these impromptu sense of circle and community to be some of the medicine for the isolation of grief?    [00:26:53] I think doing exactly what we're doing here.    [00:26:57] It's really like leaning in. And the words that keep coming up for me are it's like permission based that we give ourselves permission to have our humanity factored into the equation. So that doesn't mean that we collapse, but it does mean, you know, one thing, you know, compassion when you know, when you are met with compassion, that it's like medicine.    [00:27:19] Right. I mean, I feel that with you when you and I talk and we talk about how you had today was heart day or I'm really struggling. It's like that kind of connection. It's the medicine for grief. It's not doing it alone. It's having an understanding that. The grief changes the brain. So for us actually to to not have the same kinds of expectations for ourselves. Of productivity. Linear thinking of tasks. You know that it's in a way it's. It's interrupting. Life is normal. Grief interrupts life as we know it. Like whether we like it or not. And it actually I think that the hidden opportunity there is it gives us a doorway into vulnerability, connection, creativity in ways that we're not used to. And it's like Stephen said, if we avoid it, we increase the pain. So I think it's being permission based about it with ourselves, with each other, having a lot of understanding and compassion and and and knowing that, you know, grief is a process. It is something we go through like Earth and like death. It has movement. It has stages. It is circular in itself. It's not linear. So you don't go through like the Kubler-Ross stages. That was like in that time, that was a breakthrough. And now we know that the stages of grief, they they move and they're more fluid.    [00:28:47] Absolutely. I mean, the next my life experience. Right. That's life experience. It's fluid. And that we circle back around. It made me that same grief like you did 20 years later. Like, you know, and I remember just I think, what are the worst? Or I shouldn't say worse. I should say most intense experiences of grief in my life was when my ex husband, Chloe, was a little my daughter was a little girl. Well, he had a schizophrenic break, as you know. And and we were going through a divorce, like I went after this phone call with him when I really knew that we were never going back. And I think about hero's journey and heroine's journey, strict structure. Right. Because of the heroine's journey, the descent like perception aid in terms of mythic structure into the underworld. I mean, the descent is the opening to a greater life. And I remember my little daughter there with her, a little saggy diapers of me, just like having to get a micro grilled cheese sandwich. But inside of myself, I was literally picking myself up off the floor after just like being hysterical and devastated, but not picking myself up off the floor. But what I knew was that I was no longer in the world as it was before. And Inge and Joseph Campbell talks about this. And Maureen Murdoch and anybody who studies Stephen Jenkins said, you know, all these amazing story people, some storytellers and story workers. There is a descent into the underworld that is necessary. And to me, it's a slow read. It's a surrender to the not even well to the grief and just the emotion, but the surrender to the fact that we've gone into a non ordinary world, a non ordinary state of consciousness. And we're not going back once, once on the journey. There is no going back or there is no story, there's no transformation. And at a certain point in the journey, every, you know, book, hero's journey, structure, heroine's journey one. And when one is on the road or in the case of heroin, heroine's journey in the underworld. There's there's some point where to me, like the grief shifts and transforms and one is simply on the journey is sort of being even carried on the journey. And to me, I think of how rather than avoiding the grief or numbing the grief or the fear of the grief, that doesn't really let us feel it's actually in the feeling that we're carried across the River Styx, that we're carried to the other side, that we're carried somewhere, and that we're walking in this in this new world. It's a transformational process and grief is such a part of it. But also just remembering that the joy and creativity that came out of my life after that time was some of the most profound stuff I've made. I did all these big worldly projects. These things happen. I had a book come out. I got to be on stages all across the country. But the bigger thing was my creative creativity got activated and kicked into high gear. Right after that time that I'll always think back on in my life like, wow, I was just in a cauldron of grief.    [00:32:11] We're just about out of time. But I'd like to just just, you know, kind of add to this. I love everything that you're saying in it. And it reminds me of the word or the toss when the Latin word for bereavement. And I actually made a documentary, a short teaching documentary on grief. And the name of that documentary is or guitars and or guitars is where the word orb comes from. And so it is like an or were. So what that says to me is it is another world, like you said. It's also gestational like the womb. And so when we're in grief, we're actually being held like in this form, like container. And something's transforming. Something is changing. Where something is dying, we're dying with it and something else is going to emerge. And just to have some patience and understanding that this is a normal process, I guess that would be my. The way I talk about restoring and grief. And I'm so grateful to be restoring it with you because you've been one of the people in my life who's had the kind of depths and soul and compassion to meet me and my grief. And I'm so grateful for that.    [00:33:21] It is such a blessing. It's such a blessing. We have each other and just. Yeah, I love what you just said. Camille, love for people to just leaving our podcast today, understanding for anyone listening if you're feeling so overwhelmed in it. Not number one. What Camille said that it's a normal process and two, that it's a journey and you're not because you're feeling grief. It doesn't mean you're going to be feeling it forever. And this is where are our practice of faith or practice. Even if we can't access faith to just keep breathing and keep walking comes at. Right. Just keep breathing and walking because it is going to shift. It is an actual process like a laboring on raw.    [00:34:04] I'm with you. Yeah. And it doesn't always feel like sad. It can feel like pissed off. It can feel like blame. It can feel like a lot of different can feel like denial. It can feel like so many different things. And just to have patients with all that. Totally. Oh, man.    [00:34:19] Welcome to All Too Big to be continued in our next blog, Jestina. 

Interview with Stephen Jenkins, President and CEO of Link Global Technologies.Link Global Technologies build and manage semi-portable, self-contained power solutions (containers) that can be rapidly deployed in virtually any environment. They are a low-cost energy supplier to the data-mining/data-hosting space.Link Global started as a crypto-mining company, but recognised the opportunity of a bigger play in 2 additional sections: providing mobile date centre solutions and developing IP around energy efficiency. They have just carried out an IPO of 5,000,000 common shares at a price of $0.30 per share for total gross proceeds of $1,500,000.This is Jenkins' first foray into the realm of public companies; all his previous experience came with private companies.There are question marks as to whether Link Global can compete with its rivals, especially big hitters like Cisco with a market cap of $190.59B! Jenkins remains adamant that despite the massive difference in available capital, Link Global can compete in the big leagues.What did you make of Stephen Jenkins? Are you crazy about crypto?

We need police officers to enforce the rule of law in our cites, states, and towns. Unfortunately, around the country more and more police officers are turning in their badges before they reach retirement age. Nashville, a rapidly growing city, has a shortage of almost 200 officers and is understaffed for a city that receives thousands of 911 calls. Why do the officers leave? We can easily cite poor leadership, low morale, and inadequate pay. We also know that around the country police officers have been disrespected and harassed often by the people in the communities who need them the most. Joining me today to help us better understand the situation is Stephen Jenkins. Jenkins is a former Nashville police officer with a military background. Jenkins served on the Nashville Police force for 12 years and has worked in the Sheriff’s Department. He now works as a private detective and security specialist for Covert Results.

Stephen Jenkins is my good friend ~ we have known each other for over a decade. He stood by my side as I journeyed through some of the most harrowing and scary stretches of my life, always with encouragement, love, compassion, and when needed, a dose of good humor. It is no small surprise that he is much loved by the men he cares for as they move through their own harrowing journey, from the peaks of power and strength, through growing weakness and vulnerability, and eventually, to death. I can only hope that when my time comes that Stephen is there for me, or someone like him, someone who has the heart for end-of-life-care. Please join me for an intimate look at the challenges and blessings of being a spiritual hospice caregiver in this interview with the amazing Stephen Jenkins.

We allegedly are edible drugs and recorded a podcast, 95% of which was utterly unlistenable. What remains is the best parts. Also; had to distort the intro music because Soundcloud took the original upload down due to copyright. Related; eat my ass, Stephen Jenkins! patreon.com/CLICKBAITThePod

Today I talk to friend and musician Kevan Aguilar about the semi-alt rock of the late 90's, including The Wallflowers' odd contribution to the Godzilla soundtrack and Third Eye Blind's meth and sex-laden hit Semi-Charmed Life. I try to figure out the video for Heroes, Kevan also discusses being introduced to bands by his older sisters, and we both realize what a loser Stephen Jenkins is.

This week on the Frotcast, Matt Lieb joins us in the Frotquarters, and he recently got dumped so he needs a friend. We talk about the wonderful world of online dating, and what Stephen Jenkins thought about Matt talking about him on the last Frotcast. Lieb and I went on a man-date to Man of Steel, so we talk about that, and our favorite slow-motion scenes in general. Then Burnsy comes on to talk about the naked BART man, the sad decline and reverse aging of Matty B, and play us his new song of the Summer. Then we answer your question about "troll pooping." Wouldn't "poop trolling" be more accurate? Who knows. A good time was had by all. Frot on.

This week on the Frotcast, we welcome back one of our favorite comedians Matt Lieb (@lieb123456789) to tell us stories of hanging out with Stephen Jenkins (of Third Eye Blind). We read a listener email about stand up advice, Vince tells us about his comedy event last night, Bret saw Silver Linings Playbook, and other hilarity ensues. Thanks for listening!
