NYT Bestselling author and former Mueller prosecutor Andrew Weissman joins Donny to break down his explosive new book Liar's Kingdom: How to Stop Trump's Deceit and Save America — and the bold legal reforms he says could protect American democracy for generations. Andrew Weissman — former lead prosecutor on the Mueller Special Counsel investigation, ex-General Counsel of the FBI, and 15-year federal prosecutor — pulls no punches on the weaponization of the Justice Department, political lies, and what real structural reform looks like. In this episode: Why Weissman's original publisher dropped his book after Trump's executive order — and why that backfired His proposal to raise the grand jury indictment standard to stop retributive, politically motivated prosecutions The Truth in Elections Act — how countries like Germany, France, and Brazil criminalize deliberate election lies, and why the U.S. should too The First Amendment argument against regulating political speech — and why Weissman says it doesn't hold up What a German court's Holocaust denial ruling reveals about protecting democracy from dangerous lies Whether Trumpism survives Trump — and the structural reforms needed before the next authoritarian playbook is run Whether you're a political junkie, legal nerd, or just a concerned American, this conversation is essential listening.

"What if the biggest thing standing between you and the life you desire isn't a lack of talent, confidence, or opportunity but a fear of being truly seen?" In this deeply powerful episode, Kute Blackson explores one of the most hidden fears we all carry: the fear of visibility. Beneath perfectionism, procrastination, self-doubt, and the endless search for the "right time" often lies something much deeper: The fear of judgment, rejection, misunderstanding, and even the fear of stepping into our own power. Kute reveals how childhood experiences and old survival patterns shape our relationship with self-expression, why the masks that once protected us can eventually become prisons, and how many of us unknowingly reject ourselves before the world ever has the chance. He unpacks the five hidden fears that keep us playing small and the subtle ways fear disguises itself as preparation, humility, and perfectionism. If you've ever felt called to share more of yourself, pursue a bigger vision, speak your truth, or step into a greater purpose, but found yourself hesitating, this episode will help you understand why. More importantly, it will show you how to move beyond fear with greater courage, authenticity, and self-trust. Because the world doesn't need a perfect version of you. It needs the real you. TIMESTAMPS (00:04:20) – What are you hiding from the world? (00:07:08) – Why your purpose requires visibility. (00:11:06) – How childhood experiences create the fear of being seen. (00:14:35) – The five fears that keep people playing small. (00:20:55) – How perfectionism and procrastination disguise fear. (00:22:33) – Practical steps to overcome visibility fears and share your gifts. QUESTIONS THAT MAY CHANGE HOW YOU SEE YOUR LIFE • What am I hiding from the world and why? • When did I first learn that it wasn't safe to be fully seen? • Am I truly preparing or am I using preparation to avoid exposure? • What would become possible if I stopped worrying about being judged? • How much of my life is still being shaped by old survival patterns? IN THIS EPISODE, YOU'LL DISCOVER • Why the fear of being seen, not a lack of confidence, is often what keeps you stuck. • The five hidden fears that prevent people from fully expressing their gifts. • How childhood experiences silently shape your relationship with visibility and self-expression. • The surprising ways fear disguises itself as perfectionism, procrastination, and "waiting for the right time." • Why judgment, rejection, and even success can feel threatening to your nervous system.   Create a life that is a masterpiece.

Free Resource: Rule of Life for Emotionally Healthy Leaders → emotionallyhealthy.orgYou were made for glorious work. But you were also made to stop.Most of us know how to produce, build, plan, and push through. What we struggle with is the hidden life. The stopping. The surrendering. The trusting when no one can see it.In this episode, Pete Scazzero explores one of the most countercultural truths in Scripture: you are not God. And that is the best news you'll hear all week.Drawing from Genesis, the life of Jesus, and two ancient disciplines (Sabbath and the Daily Office), Pete unpacks why our refusal to stop is rooted in the same rebellion as the garden. And why living in God's rhythms isn't weakness. It's the path to freedom, fruitfulness, and true maturity.If your calendar is driven by fear, your ministry by insecurity, or your pace by the crowd's demands, this episode is for you.Stop. Listen.

If you have OCD or anxiety and you can't stop seeking reassurance, you are not alone and you are not broken. Whether it's Googling, calling loved ones, or mentally reviewing events over and over, reassurance seeking feels necessary in the moment. But it keeps you stuck. In this episode, Matt Codde, LCSW explains exactly why reassurance seeking is so hard to stop, and what you actually need to do instead.The problem is not willpower. The mistake most people make is trying to stop the behavior without addressing the inner emotional pressure that is driving it. When you just stop seeking reassurance without working on what is underneath, the anxiety doesn't go away. It shifts. You end up with a new theme, a new compulsion, or a new obsession, and the cycle continues.True recovery from OCD and anxiety means learning to confront and metabolize the emotions underneath the compulsion, not just stopping the behavior on the surface. This episode walks you through the core mindset shift that makes that possible.

Grant Mitt Podcast #166: The Secret to Kill Anxiety In this episode, Grant breaks down a powerful perspective on anxiety, fear, and mental overwhelm. He shares practical strategies to help you regain control of your thoughts, strengthen your mindset, and create more peace, confidence, and certainty in your life. If you've ever struggled with anxiety, stress, overthinking, or fear of the future, this episode is for you.

If you genuinely believe that you can't stop yourself from overeating with certain foods, we need to talk about that. Because that's not intuitive eating.    So many people tell me, "If I ate intuitively I'd eat an entire package of cookies or bag of chips every day." NO YOU WOULDN'T…Not if you were doing intuitive eating correctly.    Your body doesn't "intuitively" want to eat in a way that is excessive or makes you feel like crap. So if that's what is happening to you, then you're not an intuitive eater…YET.    Let's fix this today.     Episode Highlights - The major flaw in the evidence you're using to convince yourself that you can't be trusted with Oreos - Why the path through this requires you to EAT the Oreos, not avoid them. - Why intuitive eating often looks worse before it looks better. - The REAL goal we are aiming for…and it's not to eat fewer Oreos. It's much bigger than that.   Today's Wellness Woo is the book "Always Hungry" by Dr. David Ludwig.   Resources Mentioned - Take the FREE 2-minute food freedom quiz here! - Make sure you're on my email list for the full BTS of the movement we are creating.   Read the full episode show notes here.   Resources for Your Intuitive Eating Journey - Join My Intuitive Eating Made Easy Facebook Group!:  - Work with Katy - Join Katy's weekly email newsletter: nondietacademy.com/newsletter - Stop the Constant Food Obsession: https://www.nondietacademy.com/food   Connect with Katy Harvey Website Instagram Facebook   Subscribe and Review   Rate, Review, & Follow on Apple Podcasts   I would be thrilled if you could rate and review my podcast!

In 2025, out of all 70+ guests we had on our show, not one of them said they'd trust AI to run their SOC. Now in 2026, that mindset is shifting. In this episode, Ron sits down with Aqsa Taylor, Chief Security Evangelist at Exaforce, to find out what changed, and what's still standing in the way of security teams being able to trust AI agents with response.  The conversation covers what's really behind the agentic SOC hype, why "vibe hunting" might be the most fun phrase in cybersecurity right now, and how teams can build enough confidence to hand over the keys to detection, investigation, and response.  Aqsa also gets into the one thing she believes has to come before any of it works: the data. Without the right context feeding your AI you're just getting confident guesses dressed up as answers. Listen to find out if your team is ready to take the leap into an agentic SOC.  Impactful Moments 00:00 - Introduction  02:05 - Hack the headlines, June top trends in cybersecurity  05:30 - Welcoming Aqsa Taylor from Exaforce 06:15 - Inside Exaforce's $125M raise  08:50 - Redefining what AI SOC should mean  09:30 - The evolution from manual playbooks to AI-driven autonomy  13:40 - Where Exaforce fits in an existing stack  18:10 - What vibe hunting looks like in practice  19:40 - The challenges of securing sensitive data in a world dominated by SaaS platforms 22:00 - How to build your trust ladder for AI in the SOC  24:40 - Best use case to get started with AI SOC  28:50 - Ron's takeaway: the data has to be there first Links Connect with Aqsa Taylor on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/aqsa-taylor  Learn more about Exaforce: https://www.exaforce.com Join Exaforce's Force Multiplier Substack community: https://theforcemultiplier.substack.com  –  Check out our upcoming events: https://www.hackervalley.com/livestreams  Love Hacker Valley Studio?

Episode 5459: Stopping Progressives From Making It Tammany Hall 2.0

Episode 5457: Holding Fauci Accountable; Stopping the Spread Of Data Centers

If you are tossing and turning tonight, unable to quiet a racing mind, step away from the frustrations of insomnia and drift off into a classic world of wonder. Tonight, Books at Bedtime brings you Chapter 4 of H.G. Wells' timeless sci-fi masterpiece, The Time Machine. In this episode, your host Martin Hewlett utilizes his signature soothing, hypnotic cadence to help you cross the bridge into a deep, restful sleep. Follow the enigmatic Time Traveller as he finally finishes his machine, climbs into the saddle, and pulls the lever to launch himself headlong into the distant future. As night and day begin to blur like the flapping of a black wing and the sun streaks across a twilight sky, let the rhythmic rise and fall of the narrative lull your nervous system into complete relaxation. Designed specifically for those struggling with restless sleep, night anxiety, or sleep onset issues, this literary sanctuary invites you to put down the weight of today, stop counting the hours, and ease effortlessly into a calm, restorative slumber. Time Chapters00:00 – Introduction to Books at Bedtime: Chapter 4 00:23 – Completing the Time Machine in the Workshop 00:53 – The First Voyage: Pulling the Starting Lever 02:04 – When Night and Day Blur: The Physical Sensations of Travel 04:31 – A Changing Earth: Watching Buildings Rise and Seasons Pass 06:40 – The Looming Risk of Stopping in the Unknown 09:21 – A Sudden Halt: Hurled into the World of the Future 10:46 – The Crouching White Sphinx in the Hailstorm 13:32 – Overcoming Bedtime Panic and Gathering Courage 15:06 – Meeting the Frail and Beautiful Inhabitants of the Future Episode AffirmationsBefore we begin reading, let these gentle thoughts anchor your body and quiet your restless mind:"I am ready to release the thoughts of today and let my mind drift.""Just like seasons passing in a flash, the worries of today are transient.""I am safe in my bed, completely supported, with nothing left to solve tonight.""I choose to step out of the rush of time and rest in this quiet space.""My body knows how to sleep, and I give it permission to relax fully now."3 Daily Caring TipsThe Bedtime Pivot: If your mind is replaying the day's events over and over, gently pivot your attention away from your own life. Immersing your imagination in an old audiobook or story gives your brain a fictional space to wander, stopping the anxious loop.Break the Clock Habit: Looking at the clock when you can't sleep only feeds insomnia anxiety. If you find yourself wakeful, turn your phone or clock away. Accept that resting your body in stillness is highly valuable, even before sleep takes over.Somatic Unwinding: Just as the Time Traveller felt the heavy, jarring sensations of his journey fade into a calm landscape, you can release physical tension. Take a slow, deep breath, drop your shoulders away from your ears, and let the bed completely carry your weight. Social Media Outro & ShareIf a restless mind or sleep issues have been keeping you awake lately, please know you are far from alone in the quiet hours of the night. If this chapter of The Time Machine helped soothe your bedtime anxiety and brought a little tranquility to your evening, please consider sharing this episode with someone else who might be staring at the ceiling tonight. You could be the reason they finally find their escape and drift off into a deep, peaceful sleep.Thank you so much for putting your faith and trust in Calming Anxiety and Books at Bedtime. Sleep deeply, rest well, and remember—be kind.

Ibogaine is regularly categorized as a psychedelic — but that label may be misleading in ways that matter. In this micro, James offers a crash course in what ibogaine actually is: where it comes from, how its unusual pharmacology works, what it does to the mind, and why it holds a position in addiction medicine that no other drug on earth can claim. The risk profile is part of the picture too. This is a clip from 'Psychedelics in Research & Practice | James W.

Your shorts feel tighter. You feel hotter, puffier, stickier and more exposed. You catch one bad reflection or try on something you haven't worn since last summerSuddenly your brain has a complete nervy breakdown(idk why this reminds me of angus thongs and perfect snogging… but kinda that crazy)But you?You drop calories. Add cardio. Clean everything up. Get back in control.Yep… summer has a weird way of making your body feel like an emergencyBut is fat loss actually the phase your body needs right now? Or is it the thing that will be the reason behind your belly being a huge problem after 40? After 50?-----------------Find me @transformxruby on instagram and tell me what IS PLAYING OVER IN YOUR HEAD about this whole body transformation thing... where you are getting tripped up... i will do my best to help you with a free assessment :) ** just say you came from the podcast**------------------You can lose weight without ending up with the lean, strong and defined body you pictured You can become smaller without creating more shape. And you can keep trying to reveal muscle that you have never given yourself enough time, food or effective training to build.In this episode, we're talking about:• why summer can make you feel physically fuller without proving you have suddenly gained body fat• the difference between strategically choosing fat loss and emotionally reacting to discomfort• why dieting feels so reassuring when maintenance feels uncertain• why “toned” is not a number on the scale• how repeated summer shreds keep cutting your muscle-building phase short• why eating more only works when your training creates a genuine reason for your body to adapt• what effective training, progressive overload, carbohydrates and recovery have to do with the shape you want• why maintenance is not a break from progress—it is where so much of the useful work happensThis is not an anti-fat-loss episode.Some women need a fat-loss phase. Some women are completely ready for one.But if every tight pair of shorts, bad photograph or uncomfortable body day sends you straight back into restriction, that is not strategy. That is emotional relief dressed up as a plan.The body you want is not just a fat-loss outcome.You cannot keep cutting the building phase short and then wonder why there is nothing new to reveal.I was talking to a client about this yesterday, and I could hear the desperation in her voice. She'd spent three years—three years—white-knuckling her way through summers because she felt like if she wasn't "tightening up," she was losing control.We forget that we are allowed to take up space. You do not need to earn the right to exist in the summer. You don't need to shrink before you participate in your own life.I shared this episode because I'm so tired of seeing brilliant, capable women interrupt their own progress because they got scared by a photo from a barbecue. If you're feeling that urge to cut right now, listen to this first. I want you to build something that lasts, not something you're just trying to survive until September.I'm in your corner. Let's stop letting the shorts be the boss.Apply for a free consult:https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfqaxMDfbPYPYVui3BgSClnDXTj4BWjRvPkbBHuK5CP7SQsIw/viewform?usp=sf_linkDirect link to DM me on IG:https://ig.me/m/transformxruby And if this episode hit home, follow 100% real with ruby, leave a five-star rating and share it with the woman who thinks she needs another summer shred.

Today's episode takes a different direction. Instead of talking about where to buy, what to buy, cash flow, financing, rent, tenants, or market trends, Wayne and Gabby talk about something that stops many people before they ever buy their first rental property. Negative people. Fearful people. Family members. Friends. Co-workers. People who mean well, but still fill your head with doubt. In this episode, Wayne and Gabby talk about why so many people want to invest in real estate, learn the strategy, understand the numbers, and still never take action. Sometimes the problem is not money. Sometimes the problem is not mortgages. Sometimes the problem is not a lack of good deals. Sometimes the real problem is the people around you. Wayne shares what he has seen after working with well over 1,000 real estate investors across Canada. Many smart, capable people stop moving forward because they are afraid of what other people will think, what other people will say, or how family and friends will judge them. Gabby explains how negative people rarely stop your success directly. Instead, they stop it indirectly by creating doubt, hesitation, fear, and inaction. Wayne and Gabby also share personal stories about starting out, dealing with unsupportive people, moving across the country, building confidence, and learning how to protect your goals from other people's fears. They discuss why some people criticize because they are jealous, why others criticize because they are scared for you, and why some people simply project their own limitations onto your future. The message is simple: you cannot build a better life while allowing people who are stuck, fearful, jealous, or unsupportive to control your decisions. Sometimes you need to limit exposure. Sometimes you need to set boundaries. Sometimes you need to stop discussing your goals with certain people. And sometimes, when someone is actively trying to hold you back, you may need to create distance or cut them out altogether. Wayne and Gabby also talk about the importance of finding a new circle of supportive people who understand what you are trying to build. Whether that is through mentorship, community, networking, or surrounding yourself with people who are also taking action, the right environment can help you keep going when your old environment tries to pull you back. This episode is for anyone who knows they want more from life but feels stuck because of the people around them. If you are waiting for everyone to understand you, agree with you, support you, or cheer for you before you start, you may never start. At some point, you have to decide whose life you are building. Theirs or yours. What You'll Learn in This Episode Why today's episode is not about real estate strategy, but about why people do not take action Why negative people can stop investors before they ever buy a property Why fear of judgment holds so many people back Why friends, family, co-workers, and relatives can affect your confidence Why some people criticize because they are jealous Why some people criticize because they are projecting their own fears Why even well-meaning family members can create doubt Why negative people rarely stop success directly How doubt, hesitation, fear, and inaction slowly build over time Why Wayne moved across the country to create a fresh start Why Gabby struggled with fear early in their investing journey Why people often bring up worst-case scenarios when you share your goals Why you need to be careful who you share your plans with Why not everyone deserves access to your dreams Why setting boundaries matters Why limiting exposure to negative people may be necessary Why some people need to be cut out if they actively resent your growth Why creating a new circle of supportive people is so important Why community can help investors stay confident and take action Why the REI Masters community is intentionally built around supportive people Why your environment can either pull you forward or hold you back Why you cannot wait for everyone else to believe in your future Why you need to take ownership of your own life and decisions Upcoming Events Edmonton Garden Suites 101 July 24, 2026 Edmonton, Alberta www.reimasters.ca REI Masters Edmonton Real Estate Investing Bus Tour August 22, 2026 www.reimasters.ca/edmontonbustour About Your Hosts Wayne & Gabby Hillier are full-time real estate investors and real estate investing coaches based in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada.

This episode explores how to use GLP-1 medications like semaglutide/Ozempic and tirzepatide/Mounjaro safely and effectively. Dr. Mike Hart and Dr. Christle Guevarra Do discuss once-weekly dosing, individualized titration, optimal dose selection, food noise, appetite suppression, and the risks of dosing mistakes with vials or gray-market peptides. They also cover why resistance training, protein, fiber, and realistic nutrition habits are essential for preserving muscle and maintaining results. The conversation expands into GLP-1 benefits beyond weight loss, including cardiovascular protection, inflammation, autoimmune flares, addiction-related behaviors, alcohol cravings, libido, menstrual cycles, PCOS, sleep apnea, and what to expect when stopping the medication. Dr. Christle Guevarra Do is a physician focused on obesity medicine, GLP-1 education, weight management, and sustainable lifestyle change. Drawing from both her clinical experience and her own long-term use of GLP-1 medication, she helps patients understand how these medications fit into the bigger picture of long-term health.

Tenderoni Hotline #36: A listener recently wrote in with a request: please stop calling your audience "my love/my beauty."In this episode, I respond to that message and explore the deeper questions underneath it. Why do terms of endearment feel comforting to some people and uncomfortable to others? What happens when trauma teaches us that closeness, care, or tenderness are things to be wary of? And at what point does healing ask us to move beyond avoiding discomfort and begin building safety from within?We dive into the relationship between nervous system regulation, emotional outsourcing, trauma recovery, and self-trust. I also share why calling people "my love" is not a branding decision or a marketing strategy, but an authentic expression of who I am, my culture, and the kind of world I want to help create.If you've ever struggled to receive kindness, felt suspicious of tenderness, or found yourself looking outside yourself for safety, worth, or belonging, this episode offers a compassionate invitation to get curious about those patterns.Got a question for the Tenderoni Hotline?

Most school leaders understand that psychosocial safety is a legal obligation. Very few have figured out how to make it feel like anything more than a compliance activity. In this solo episode, I unpack the gap between obligation and opportunity, and what it actually takes to move psychosocial safety from a four-step process on a page to something genuinely woven into how a school leads, communicates and operates.Drawing on data from almost 80 schools and thousands of staff, I walk through common psychosocial hazards in Australian schools, why they are connected rather than isolated, and why the four-step risk management process, while important, is actually the easiest part of the whole process.The real work is not in the paperwork. It's the leadership commitment and authentic ongoing consultation that determine whether any of it sticks.What I cover in this episode:What is missing from the four-step risk assessment process in many schoolsThe national data: the most common psychosocial hazards in Australian schools and why they compound each otherWhy good communication underpins the entire process, and how to ensure your messaging landsHow to embed wellbeing into your school's way of doing and not let it be an initiative layered on top of othersLeadership commitment as the foundation: why it falters, what it actually requires, and the personal and professional skills that make it landWhy the hardest feedback can be the most important data you will ever receiveWhat the Safe Work Australia Code of Practice actually requires of school leaders, and why most schools are not quite there yetResources and links mentioned:Article: The Wellbeing Weave: The Three Phases of Addressing Staff Wellbeing in Well-Led Schools adriennehornby.com.au/the-wellbeing-weave-the-three-phases-of-addressing-staff-wellbeing-in-well-led-schools/  Article: Embedding a Sustainable Wellbeing Ecosystem: The Key to Psychosocial Safety and Staff Wellbeing adriennehornby.com.au/designing-a-sustainable-wellbeing-ecosystem-the-key-to-psychosocial-safety/  Podcast: Creating a School Culture Where Staff Feel Seen, Heard and Valued with Daniela Falecki https://adriennehornby.com.au/creating-a-school-culture-where-staff-feel-seen-heard-and-valued-with-daniela-falecki-season-3-episode-10/Waverley Christian School Case Study: https://www.linkedin.com/posts/adrienne-hornby-a4126a205_most-school-wellbeing-initiatives-fail-or-ugcPost-7465421290833805312-QVL9/?utm_source=social_share_send&utm_medium=member_desktop_web&rcm=ACoAADQvl1EBSRJtRkz0cewFH4TjXfHExS9B0F4If you enjoyed this episode, don't forget to subscribe and leave a review wherever you get your podcasts.

Stopping yelling and punishing often feels like the only option, but it rarely helps dysregulated kids learn new behavior. In this episode, parents learn what actually works instead. Dr. Roseann Capanna-Hodge is an expert in Regulation First Parenting™ and child emotional dysregulation.When you're overwhelmed, exhausted, and nothing seems to get through to your child, it's easy to believe you're failing. But the truth is simpler—and more hopeful.Most parents aren't “bad at parenting,” they're just using strategies that don't reach a dysregulated brain. This episode breaks down why yelling and punishment don't create lasting change and what actually does.Why does my child get worse when I yell or punish?When your child is escalated, their nervous system is in survival mode, not learning mode. That means yelling or punishment adds more threat—not understanding.Their brain is focused on protection, not reasoningMore intensity = more escalation or shutdownShort-term compliance may happen, but no real change sticksReal-life example: You raise your voice to stop a behavior. Your child freezes or explodes again the next day. It feels like nothing is working—because the nervous system never actually calmed.What's really happening in my child's brain during a meltdown?A meltdown isn't defiance—it's dysregulation. The brain shifts into fight, flight, or shutdown, making it nearly impossible for your child to listen or learn.Stress response overrides logic and connectionThe child cannot “absorb” correction in this stateBehavior becomes communication of overwhelmBehavior is communication. Tune in to what the brain is saying.Instead of asking, “Why won't they listen?” try asking, “What state is their nervous system in right now?”Trying to understand your child's patterns more clearly? The Dysregulated Kid offers practical guidance to help you respond with more clarity and less overwhelm.What should I do instead of yelling and punishing in the moment?This is where real change begins. Instead of escalating, you become the calm anchor.Regulate first: lower your voice, slow your body, reduce stimulationConnect next: simple phrases like “I see this is hard”Correct later: teach only after calm returnsReal-life example: Your child refuses homework and starts yelling. Instead of reacting, you pause, soften your tone, and say less. The shift in your calm helps their nervous system settle faster.Before correction can work, the brain must move out of threat and into safety. That's where learning finally happens.Yelling less and staying calm isn't about being perfect—it's about having the right tools.Join the Dysregulation Insider VIP list and get your FREE Regulation Rescue Kit, designed to help you handle oppositional behaviors without losing it. Download it now at www.drroseann.com/newsletterHow do I break the yelling cycle without losing control?Breaking the cycle starts with you regulating first. Not perfectly—just consistently.

Any Questions Or Advice You Want the Chicos Tóxicos to Answer?

Unmet generative AI promises, flatlining ROI dashboards, and a relentless corporate appetite for unguided technological progress. By all logic, one would assume we'd take a strategic pause to change course and build foundational human competence. Instead, in a desperate panic, we're witnessing the birth of "AI agent sprawl,” autonomous activity deployed without a map, GPS, or off-switch.  This week, I examine what happens when companies try to use autonomous AI as a strategic shortcut to force unfulfilled promises into reality, and how it's fracturing their operational architectures and budgets. You'll see why we have to move past the open-ended rollout hype, put a full stop on unmanaged agental capabilities, and install strict human oversight mandates before these tools trigger a catastrophic bottom-line crisis.  My goal is to get you off cruise control by highlighting the following opportunities to protect yourself and your organization:​Deconstructing the Autonomy Sliding Scale: We need to stop treating AI agents like a mythical, binary technology that just arrived from space. Autonomy is a volume knob we've been turning up for decades. The real danger occurs when you spin that dial to a ten, completely relinquishing task-by-task control to a digital intern running continuously on autopilot without verifying if your structural architecture can handle the noise.  ​Exposing the SharePoint Trap with Fangs: In the cloud migration era, corporate America turned on SharePoint thinking "what's the harm," only to create an unmanaged jungle of duplicate data and orphaned sites that acted as a silent productivity torpedo. Agent sprawl is that exact same mistake on steroids because a messy SharePoint folder couldn't rewrite your product codebase, communicate with your clients, or execute legally binding corporate spend decisions. Agents can, and left running on autopilot after an employee leaves, they become an invisible, permanent liability.  ​Halting the Autopilot Spend Shock: The financial consequences of ungoverned agent loops are hitting corporate balance sheets hard, mimicking the familiar spend shock of dictionary-thick cell phone bills from the early 2000s. I highlight some recent examples like Uber vaporizing its entire annual AI budget in four months due to recursive agent rework loops, Microsoft aggressively clawing back developer licenses, and a jaw-dropping $500 million single-month bill racked up by an enterprise trapped in an infinite loop.  By the end, I hope you're convinced the solution isn't about stopping technology. It's about halting the wide-scale rollouts to reinvest heavily in human AI competence. We must move past the vendor hype, place the right people in the right loops at the right times, and establish the disciplined guardrails required to surgically agentize our operations safely.  ⸻If this conversation was helpful, make sure to like, share, and subscribe.

While these conversations intend to offer insight and perspective, the content is provided solely for informational and educational purposes. Please consult your healthcare provider before making any changes to your medical care or treatment.

Managing Chronic Pain Nobody likes feeling pain. Joe remembers that as a child, he would ask the doctors and nurses if the procedure was going to hurt. They always lied and told him it would not. As a result, he ended up not trusting them. We often think of pain as located in the body part that hurts (hence, tell me where it hurts). In actuality, though, pain is a complex phenomenon the brain and its interpretation of the situation at least as much as the body. That is why Dr. Rachel Zoffness maintains that pain is biopsychosocial–the result of three overlapping circles in a Venn diagram: biological, psychological and sociological. The biological circle includes our genetics, tissue damage, diet, sleep and movement. Psychological factors are never just psychological. The brain uses the same limbic system to process emotions and pain, so our feelings about our situation have a major impact on our pain experience. In the sociological realm, we find access to care, a history of trauma, and factors like racism or poverty. One result is that pain is incredibly subjective, varying from one individual to another and even from day to day. Another example of the power of the brain to generate pain is phantom limb pain. You may have heard of someone whose foot hurts even though the leg was amputated. Dr. Zoffness tells us about a boy with hand pain after a fireworks accident that resulted in his arm being amputated. The hand wasn't there, but the pain was real. What Is Your Pain Recipe? In managing chronic pain, it helps to know what your pain recipe is. What factors contribute to a bad pain day? A few common ones are poor sleep, too much junk in the diet, lots of stress, too little movement. Once you have the recipe for a bad pain day, you may be able to turn that around to find the recipe for a low pain day. If you get enough sleep, does that turn down the pain dial? How about diet? We also discuss the power of self-hypnosis and biofeedback. If you can practice warming your hands up, as Dr. Zoffness has learned to do, you can also practice making yourself more comfortable. She shares another story of a teenager who suffered from crippling migraines, social anxiety and generalized body pain. He had not been to school in years, but taking very small steps at first–just standing in the sun on his front porch–he was gradually able to build himself a low-pain recipe. Taking the dog to the dog park helped him move his body and his brain started producing chemicals like dopamine and serotonin. Eventually Sam was able to return to high school, even graduating. Using Pain Medicines in Managing Chronic Pain Physicians have often learned that managing chronic pain is something of a prescription puzzle. Which drug will work best for this patient? A decade or more ago, the answer was frequently opioids. That's no longer the case. As a result of the overdose epidemic, doctors usually try to prescribe some other type of medication. Two of the most popular are gabapentin and tramadol. When our listeners tell us about their experience with gabapentin, the results range widely. For some people, it seems to be a life-changing medication. For many others, it is lackluster at best, and for some, the side effects of brain fog, dizziness, breathing problems, edema and an increased risk of dementia are too much. Dr. Zoffness has heard similar reports about gabapentin. Her guideline for pain medicine is to try it for three months and see if it makes a (positive) difference. If not, ask the prescriber to help you taper off. Stopping any pain medicine suddenly could be a mistake. For managing chronic pain, people need a healthcare professional who can help them create a personalized pain management plan. For improving sleep, which is often a key ingredient in the pain recipe, she recommends cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia (CBTI). The sleep hygiene protocol she suggests can also be helpful, dimming lights and gearing down as the day comes to a close. The Roadmap for Managing Chronic Pain The last section of Dr. Zoffness's book is a detailed pain protocol. She reminds us that there is no quick hack for pain. If trauma is part of the pain recipe, addressing the trauma will be useful. Medications are important tools, but they are not a permanent fix for chronic pain. She wants us all to remember that if the brain can change, pain can change. It is in our power.

The guys from Lonely Island made a hilarious mockumentary 10 years ago called, Popstar: Never Stop Never Stopping. It didn't do great at the box office, but over the years people have figured out how funny it actually is. Adam Rupp was the one who introduced it to Rob, and they've watched it on the Home Free bus many times. He was great on this episode and hope you enjoy!

This week in the Share Shed, one listener wakes up to discover he'd apparently spent 40 minutes running barefoot on a treadmill at 3am… after swimming in a stranger's pool and blacking out at a party.The only problem? He remembers none of it.A hilarious story with a surprisingly thoughtful twist about sobriety, fitness, and what happens when one obsession gets replaced by another.The Share Shed is where listeners send in their funniest, cringiest and most unbelievable drinking stories. It's not about judgement, it's about recognising how wild things could get when alcohol was in charge, and laughing about it now we're on the other side.But sometimes, it's also a place for the harder stuff, the honest bits we don't always say out loud.If you've got a story you'd like to get off your chest, funny, awkward or something a bit more serious, you can send it to Vic at:vic@soberawkward.comAnonymous is absolutely fine.
