Rhonda Britten -- Emmy Award-winner, 4x Bestselling author, Repeat Oprah guest, Tedx Speaker, Huffington Post Contributor, and Master Coach – has devoted her life to one thing: teaching people how to master fear. She has created a method for anyone to overcome the insidious fear of “not being good enough” using the “Wheel Technology” she developed to save her own life.What she teaches is what she has lived.The episode presents an in-depth exploration of the multifaceted relationship between fear, teaching, and learning. Rhonda Britten introduces her innovative methodologies, including the 'Wheel of Fear' and the 'Wheel of Freedom', which serve as frameworks for understanding the psychological barriers that hinder student participation and engagement. She posits that fear is not merely a personal flaw but a universal experience that shapes behavior and learning in profound ways. Rhonda reflections on her own educational journey reveal the detrimental effects of fear on student participation, highlighting the need for educators to adopt a more empathetic approach. Significant transformation in education requires educators to first address their own fears and emotional needs. By prioritizing self-care, teachers can cultivate an environment conducive to authentic learning and emotional safety, allowing students to express themselves freely. This conversation is a call to action for educators to engage in self-reflection and to foster a fearless culture in their classrooms, ultimately leading to a more enriching educational experience for all.Takeaways: The Wheel of Fear and Wheel of Freedom offer frameworks to understand personal fear dynamics. Identifying one's core fear can significantly shift perspectives and enhance personal growth. Authenticity in education requires teachers to understand their own needs and emotions. Students often conceal their fears, which can hinder their learning and engagement in the classroom. Teachers must prioritize self-care to effectively support their students' emotional and educational needs. Creating a supportive classroom environment necessitates a focus on students' individual experiences and needs.

Send us a textThis week, we dive deep into the land of make-believe — or as the government calls it: science and progress. NASA apparently left a rocket ship chilling in the Everglades like it's an abandoned sofa. No mission, no explanation, just vibes.Then we look into the OpenAI whistleblower who definitely didn't suicide himself with two shots to the head. Totally normal. Nothing to see here. Just "AI safety."Mr. Wang allegedly took a SpaceX trip to “view the poles,” while Katy Perry hitched a ride with Blue Origin — but somehow, that still counted as going to the “edge of space.” There's no footage, no launch, and nobody remembers seeing either of them go up — so naturally, it's 100% real.Speed (yes, that Speed) went to China to tour cities built with tech the U.S. paid for. Meanwhile, Mexico had a guy in the '70s building pyramids based on alien instructions — but hey, he was probably just “crazy,” right?We cover the latest UAP sightings, Google Gemini's new mind-reading glasses, and chemtrails proudly sprayed across our skies like it's cologne for the atmosphere. No longer a conspiracy — it's a vibe.And in this week's segment of “What TikTok Allows,” it turns out violence against men is totally fine... but say something about a woman? Banned.Also:Xi Jinping's daughter is living that all-American Ivy League life at Harvard (plot twist),The government can manipulate time and space now (no big deal),There's a human-robot marathon happening (Skynet is warming up),And a PSA: if you're talking loud on your phone while paying and making everyone wait — you're the villain.

On this week's program, we are thrilled to bring you a Student Panel on The Pursuit of Equity in Higher Education that concluded the University of Louisville's 2nd annual Gender, Equity & Climate Justice Conference on Tuesday, April 8th, 2025, 10am-5pm, online. This panel features a number of activists from the Student Coalition for Diversity, Equity & Inclusion at the University of Louisville (https://linktr.ee/UofLCoalition4DEI), which started with a small group of concerned students in 2024. UofL Students had seen Kentucky's House Bill 9 and Senate Bill 6—both anti-DEI bills—fail that same year, but they also saw just how invested Kentucky and the nation was in stripping higher education of resources, programs, and support services from marginalized students and university campus workers. They got together in informal settings at first, created a structure and constitution, and then got to work building out the Coalition. Now, the Student Coalition for DEI is composed of sixteen-member student organizations and countless individual students who have engaged in various meetings, events, and direct actions. The Student Coalition for DEI at UofL then expanded to other public universities in Kentucky and started the Kentucky Student Coalition for DEI. Student organizers on each campus collaborated to host a statewide “Day of DEI” on Friday, February 28th, which gathered over 1,000 participants across the Commonwealth. While Kentucky's House Bill 4 is set to become the law of the land by June 30th of this year, the Student Coalition is still committed to preserving equity in higher education, building power at the campus level, and pushing back against measures of overcompliance. Please join us for a riveting panel discussion on how the Student Coalition for DEI has fought for equity in higher education and the future of this struggle under new laws and executive orders. You can read and sign the UofL Coalition Open Letter for DEI at https://actionnetwork.org/forms/uofl-coalition-open-letter-for-dei/ This panel is moderated by Savannah Dowell, and features panelists: Bradley Price, Alexandria Underwood, Jaydon Michalczyk, Alexandria Groves, and Olivia Shams. The Student Coalition for DEI at UofL is a collective of student organizers and registered student organizations at the University of Louisville. We work to uphold, protect, and expand existing diversity, equity & inclusion initiatives at our university and stop proposed legislation and policies that harm our marginalized students and campus workers. UofL's second annual Gender, Equity, & Climate Justice Conference took place virtually on April 8, 2025. At this day-long virtual event, attendees learned from campus and community leaders who are committed to challenging and working to dismantle patriarchy, and other systems of oppression. Highlighted throughout were inclusive leadership approaches and key takeaways to advance social justice and climate justice efforts. This Conference provided a space to come together to learn, discuss, challenge, and unite for a more equitable future for all. The conference was organized by UofL's Women's Center, in partnership with UofL's Sustainability Council and many other organizations. Learn more and keep an eye out for posted recordings of all the day's events at https://louisville.edu/womenscenter/signature-programs/gender-equity-climate-justice-conference Truth to Power airs every Friday at 9pm, Saturday at 11am, and Sunday at 7pm on Louisville's grassroots, community radio station, Forward Radio 106.5fm WFMP and live streams at https://forwardradio.org

In this episode of the WAB Podcast, we take a look at STEM learning at WAB. Grade 9 student Zane and Grade 10 students Anna, David, and Xander take us behind the scenes of their robotics, game development, and biomedical engineering projects. What they share isn't just about technology, it's about creativity, collaboration, and learning with real-world impact. Building, Breaking, Rebuilding: Robotics in Action Xander and David have been working together to design a competition robot using the VEX V5 system. David focuses on 3D modeling with Onshape, while Xander brings the mechanical build to life. "Dex V5 is an educational platform where students design, build, and program the robots to compete in yearly challenges," explains Xander. "Every new season, a new game is released, which means teams must create brand-new robots to match updated growth in the field and objectives." When asked about challenges, David shares, "Testing parts and different designs of robots takes a lot of time, especially when you physically have to swap parts in and out. To solve this problem, we started using 3D modeling code Onshape, which has helped us reduce a lot of errors during the actual building process." Using AI for Health Innovation Anna's project is a low-cost cardiovascular risk detection device that uses AI to assess and rank heart disease risk factors. “The device uses an AI algorithm to analyze your risk factors that we'll be extracting using the same device,” she explains. “It analyzes this risk factor and also ranks them in importance.” The hardest part, she says, was sourcing reliable training data. “Algorithms need an unbiased and balanced dataset. Patient data is hard to get due to patient privacy, but at last we found two, one from Kaggle and another from UCI.” Anna believes that accessible AI is opening doors. “A lot of the algorithms are open source, so you can get them from the internet, and you don't have to code them on your own. With the help of AI language models, for example, ChatGPT, you're able to code these things on your own.” Code, Graphics, and Game Design Zane is creating a top-down RPG using GameMaker Studio. “It's free and it's really easy to learn and use,” he shares. “It's comfortable coding software that can be picked up pretty easily.” His biggest early challenge? "Getting used to the coding software. It has a lot of functions that are convenient once you learn how to use them, but don't make much sense initially." Working in a two-person team, Zane focuses on programming while his friend Nick handles the graphics. “In the last month or so, we've kind of switched around, which is a good experience for me, and I think he's having a good time working on his programming skills.” Reflecting on the process, Zane says, “Developing using code, I learned that mistakes are going to happen, and if you expect them, then it's easier. Expecting mistakes, one of the best things I've learned.” Learning That Feels Real All four students shared how these projects have pushed them, technically and personally. They've built new skills, worked through challenges, and found confidence in solving problems that matter to them. They also spoke about how this learning is shaping their futures. For some, it sparked a clear career interest, robotics, game design, or biomedical engineering. For others, it's the mindset that's sticking with them: creativity, resilience, and the power of working with others. “I think more people can do this than they realize,” Anna says. “With open-source tools, AI models, and even things like ChatGPT, you don't need to be an expert to start creating something meaningful.” These stories reflect the kind of purposeful, real-world learning happening all across WAB. Students are exploring big ideas, applying what they know in new ways, and connecting their passions to real-world challenges. STEM at WAB isn't about following a textbook, it's about curiosity, collaboration, and creating with purpose. Listen to the full conversation in Episode 5 of the WAB Podcast.
You crushed your quota. Commission check hits the account. Your first instinct? Celebrate! You earned it, right? Not quite. You've earned a reward, sure. But if every check disappears faster than a cold call prospect can hang up the phone, then you're just renting a lifestyle. Here's the truth: Top sales pros don't just sell like professionals—they manage their money like professionals. They know the high of a commission check can't replace long-term financial freedom. I've got the financial low-down. 1. Don't Spend It All in One Place—Or All at Once When a big check hits, it's tempting to splurge. New watch. Fancy dinner. Extra drinks on you. But here's the catch: commission highs come and go. Quarters fluctuate. Markets shift. Now more than ever, you can't treat every paycheck like a lottery win. Try this instead: Split your check. A solid money rule: 50% to lifestyle, 30% to savings/investments, 20% to debt. Set auto-transfers. Remove temptation. Have a percentage automatically move to savings or investments the minute you get paid. Living below your means is how you avoid feeling broke—even during dry spells. 2. Build the "Oh Crap" Fund Sales is high-risk, high-reward. One quarter, you're crushing it, the next you're staring down a dry pipeline and a mortgage payment. Enter your emergency fund. This isn't optional—it's survival. Ideally, you want 3–6 months of living expenses saved in a separate account, untouched unless it's a true money emergency. Having this cushion keeps you from making desperate decisions when things get tight—and keeps your mind clear to prospect fanatically. 3. Debt Doesn't Care About Your Commission Credit cards. Car payments. Student loans. Debt is a silent killer of long-term wealth. And the more you make, the more it sneaks in. Why? Because it's easy to think, “I'll just pay it off with my next check.” Then the check comes. And goes. Start taking control: List your debts. Highest interest first. Choose a strategy. Snowball (smallest balance first) or Avalanche (highest interest first). Stick to it. Automate payments. No missed due dates. No excuses. Pay with cash. And stick to it. If you can't afford to pay for it all now. You can't afford it, period. Freedom means having money that belongs to you—not a credit card company. 4. Your Future Self is Counting on You It's easy to feel invincible when you're 25, 30, 35—closing deals, stacking checks. But time moves fast. And if you don't start investing for the long haul, future-you will be making cold calls at 70. Start with your 401(k) if your company offers one—especially if there's a match (that's free money). If not, look into IRAs or Roth IRAs. Even small monthly contributions grow massively over time thanks to compounding interest. The earlier you start, the easier it is. The later you start, the harder it gets. 5. Plan, Don't Wing It You wouldn't wing a sales call with a high-value prospect, right? The same goes for your finances. You need a plan. Set financial goals. Pay off $10K in debt. Save $20K this year. Max out your Roth IRA. Track your spending. Use an app or spreadsheet. Know where every dollar goes. Meet with a financial advisor. Let a pro help map the path. Sales success without financial structure is just noise. You work too hard to have nothing to show for it in the end. 6. Discipline is Freedom This isn't about deprivation. It's about choice. When your money's right, you can: Stop chasing bad deals. Invest in coaching, property, or your own business. Sleep well, knowing you're not one missed quota away from panic. The people who look rich often aren't. The people who stay rich? They play the long game. Protect the Bank Account You already know how to grind. You already know how to win. Now it's time to build a life where that effort creates lasting freedom—not just fleeting dopamine hits.

As the student questions series continues, I'm talking through ideas for conversation inspired from a text we use in Core Theology class at Concordia University-Irvine–Called to Believe by Steven Mueller. In this episode we continue working through chapter 7 of the book, which discusses sin. Some discussion prompts related to this passage can include: Consider the Bible passages in Matthew 7; Luke 6; and Romans 2 and 3. The corruption of Adam inverts and reverses the image of God. What is the image of God, especially in terms of relationship? How does Adam's fall invert God's image? How do we see Jesus, especially in the Gospel of John, setting things right? Consider wealth and riches in life that have to do with God's creation (nature, family, physiology). Compare that with human "riches". What is the consequence for abandoning essence in favor of extension?
It's a common refrain: AI is neither good nor bad because that depends on how its used. Professor Anita Say Chan begs to differ. Chan is the author of Predatory Data: Eugenics in Big Tech and Our Fight for an Independent Future (U California Press, 2025). Chan is Associate Professor in the School of Information Sciences and Department of Media and Cinema Studies at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, as well as the author of a prior book Networking Peripheries on tech movements among craftwork communities in Peru. In her current book, Chan documents how the Big Data on which AI are trained are based on long-standing data infrastructures—sets of practices, policies, and logics—that remove, imperil, devalue, and actively harm people who refuse to conform to racialized patriarchal power structures and the priorities of surveillance capitalism—most pointedly immigrant, feminist, and low-income communities. Centered mostly in the United States as well as Latin America, Predatory Data shows how the eugenicist data practices of the past now shape our present. But her approach is fundamentally a politics of pluralism. Chan dedicates half of the book to amplifying and praising the small-scale, community-led projects of the past and present—from the legendary Hull House's data visualizations to community data initiatives in Champaign, Illinois. There is much fuel for political outrage in this book and also fodder for solidarity and hope. This interview was a collaborative effort among Professor Laura Stark and students at Vanderbilt University in the course, “The Politics of AI.” Please email Laura with any feedback on the interview or questions about how to design collaborative interview projects for the classroom. email: laura.stark@vanderbilt.edu .

The boundaries between student life and financial freedom come under scrutiny in this fascinating examination of a groundbreaking Supreme Court of Canada decision. When does your status as a "student" truly end? According to Canada's highest court, returning to school—even part-time and self-funded—resets the seven-year countdown clock that protects government student loans from bankruptcy proceedings.Through a split 6-3 decision, the court delves into the subtle nuances of legal language, including how the French version of Canadian law influenced their interpretation. The case presents a sobering reality for those hoping to discharge student debt through bankruptcy: even brief returns to education could extend the period during which these loans remain protected, regardless of how many years have passed since the original borrowing.We also explore a high-profile Victoria murder case appeal that examines the legal distinction between different paths to first-degree murder charges. The court's analysis reveals how planning and deliberation carry a different standard of participation than murders committed during other serious offences like forcible confinement—a nuanced difference that upheld the conviction in this tragic case, where two escaped prisoners killed a man in his own home.The conversation concludes with an examination of what legally constitutes a "firearm" under Canadian law, determining that a handgun tested without its original magazine still qualifies as a firearm if it can function with alternative components. This technical but significant ruling emphasizes a weapon's capability over its specific configuration at the time of seizure.These cases collectively illuminate how judicial interpretation of seemingly straightforward legal language can profoundly impact real lives, whether determining the dischargeability of student debt, the severity of murder charges, or what constitutes a regulated weapon.

Where did Lord Byron and Percy Shelley come to sip coffee while they jotted down their verses? Where did Bizet and Berlioz go to discuss their work? Where could Casanova be found trying to pick up girls? Caffè Greco, where else? Having opened in 1760, Antico Caffè Greco is the oldest café in Rome and the second-oldest in all of Italy!

He was among the students who led protests at Columbia University against the Gaza war. He is not charged with a crime, but the Trump administration wants him deported. Prior to his detainment, Mahdawi told CBS News about his fear that a long-awaited appointment to become a U.S. citizen was a "honey trap."
