How do we fight back? This week on Gaslit Nation, Tad Stoermer, author of A Resistance History of the United States, explains how true resistance is built by communities like ours. Looking at the Underground Railroad and the French Resistance, Stoermer digs deep on what Gaslit Nation has said for years: grassroots power is the most reliable power we have left. Small acts of individual resistance compound into collective awakening. Today's localized protests against ICE in Minneapolis and Delaney Hall are the true making of a great America. Our story is a story of progress, and white reactionary blood lust. MAGA are the vampires that have long sucked on human flesh. They're back in the forms of Big Tech wannabe-cyborgs and craven weirdos. Simply put, they're slimy creepers, the strongmen who have always lived by spilling blood. We have grassroots power, but now we need to build political power through elected officials who meet the moment, not take money from AIPAC and crypto trust funds. There is no substitute for political power. Communities like Gaslit Nation build together. That's our Declaration of Independence. This week's bonus show, out Thursday, will look at Senator Kirsten Gillibrand's crypto threat to our country as she enriches her family like a corrupt Russian politician. We'll also demand justice for the Prairieland Defendants – activists sentenced to 30 to 100 years in prison for protesting. Harsh sentences to punish the people ignited our Founding Fathers to build militias. Demand unconditional pardons for our Prairieland Defendants – we must reverse and heal the damage of Trump fascism.

Today on The Gist, a look back at a Webby Award nominated focus group spoof from the vault before diving into a major analysis of the Supreme Court's monumental ruling against Donald Trump's birthright citizenship executive order. Then, Pulitzer Prize-winning investigative reporter and author Eric Lichtblau joins the show to discuss his new book, American Reich: A Murder in Orange County, Neo-Nazis, and a New Age of Hate. Lichtblau unpacks the tragic 2018 murder of Ivy League student Blaze Bernstein by his former high school classmate, Sam Woodward, mapping Woodward's toxic path from an online "journal of hate" to a paramilitarized neo-Nazi hate camp in Texas. Finally, in the spiel, a deep dive into the 14th Amendment's original congressional debates reveals why the high court's 6-3 rejection of the citizenship ban successfully held the constitutional line against fringe conservative theories Produced by Corey Wara Video and Social Media by Geoff Craig Do you have questions or comments, or just want to say hello?

The World's #1 leading authority on behavior profiling, nonverbal human communication, influence, and persuasion, Chase Hughes, reveals the psychological systems secretly shaping modern society, and why he believes humanity is living through the biggest PSY OP in history.From government manipulation and engineered division to consciousness, DMT, spirituality, and the loneliness epidemic, this episode of Mayim Bialik's Breakdown goes far beyond politics and exposes the hidden forces influencing how we think, behave, comply, and perceive reality itself.Chase explains why anger is the media's most powerful weapon, how fear and tribalism are used to manipulate entire populations, and why most people don't realize they're being psychologically programmed in real time. He breaks down his FATE Model (Focus, Authority, Tribe, Emotion) and reveals how governments, institutions, and social media exploit ancient mammalian survival instincts to control human behavior.He also shares why he believes the global response to Covid was the largest psy op ever conducted, why ostracization is humanity's deepest fear, and how the threat of social rejection can override logic, morality, and independent thinking.The conversation then takes a profound turn into spirituality, altered states of consciousness, and the nature of reality itself.After 9 military deployments and witnessing the psychological effects of violence and desensitization, Chase began searching for deeper answers about consciousness, meaning, and human connection. He describes his first guided DMT experience as “death by astonishment” and “smoking an alien microchip,” revealing the mysterious “code” he saw during the experience and why it completely transformed his understanding of reality, and saved his life.Chase explores whether consciousness is something we create or something we access, why “everything is consciousness” could explain quantum entanglement, and why some people appear to be “banned” from the DMT realm entirely.He also breaks down the hidden similarities across ancient spiritual texts, the most repeated phrase throughout human history's sacred writings (including 7 Hermetic Principles & the Emerald Tablets), the illusion of separation, and why modern society may be engineering psychopathic behavior through digital isolation and performative social media culture.Chase Hughes also breaks down:- Why history predicts future government behavior- Psychology of mass compliance- Why social media may be destroying authentic human connection- Whether anyone can truly live authentically anymore- Loneliness epidemic & digital relationships- Why we have more in common with political opponents than with the people manipulating us- What humanity gets wrong about prayer- How perception of reality became the throughline of Chase's life work- Why manipulation works best when people believe they are immune to itThis is one of the deepest conversations we've ever had on psychology, consciousness, propaganda, spirituality, manipulation, human behavior, DMT, media control, social engineering, and the future of society.FFRF: If that matters to you, go to http://FFRF.US/BREAKDOWN or text, “BREAKDOWN” to 511511 to learn more and join.For a limited time, get $250 off Cove Pure water filtration at http://www.covepure.com/breakdownMachine Washable Rugs, Made Better.

Today on The Gist, Mike Pesca delivers a bittersweet announcement. Then, acclaimed novelist and political chronicler Ben Fountain joins for the entire hour to discuss his sprawling, scathing new satirical novel, Rasputin Swims the Potomac. Fountain details his decision to render the fictional president's identity as a literal redaction, the fascinating parallels between the manufactured reality of professional wrestling and the modern American electorate, and how the relentless firehose of sensory overload generated by our pocket technology forces a mass collective anxiety onto the human brain.

Alice Han and James Kynge dig into why Apple is lobbying the Trump administration for permission to buy memory chips from a Chinese company on the Pentagon's military blacklist. With DRAM prices up nearly 100% in a single quarter — analysts are calling it "RAMageddon" — Apple already raised MacBook and iPad prices by up to 20%, and iPhones could be next. How far will Apple go to secure its supply chain, and what does it mean if Washington says yes? They also break down DeepSeek's landmark $7.4 billion funding round, which is the first time the Chinese AI startup has ever taken outside money. Tencent, CATL, and China's state-backed National AI Investment Fund are among the backers, and the valuation has jumped six-fold in six weeks to nearly $59 billion. DeepSeek built its reputation on doing more with less — so why does it need the money now? And finally: a new sign that China's middle class is changing what it puts on the table. The Economist calls it the "Californication" of Chinese diets: a growing appetite for organic, health-conscious food.

#353: We've spent this entire visibility series talking about what it means to be seen — in your career, in your work, in the world. But this final episode brings it all the way home, because the most personal version of that question lives inside your closest friendships.We all want to feel seen by the people who know us best. And this week's guest shows us exactly how complicated that gets when a wedding is involved.I'm joined by Ru Wolle, journalist and author of I Hope You Elope. After feeling financially and emotionally stretched by the obligations of being a bridesmaid, Ru made a decision that went viral — and sparked a conversation so many of us were quietly waiting to have. We get into the ways wedding culture has turned friendship into a loyalty test, how unspoken expectations create resentment, and why so many women walk away from a wedding weekend having lost a friendship they thought would last forever.This one hit. I think you're going to feel very seen — which feels like exactly the right note to end this series on.This episode is for you if...You've ever said yes to something when every part of you wanted to say "can we talk about this first?"You've felt the financial pressure of wedding culture but didn't know how to name itYou're navigating a friendship where something big went unsaidYou want to celebrate the people you love — without it costing you the friendshipWe talk about:Why friendships get tested hardest around major life events — and what's really underneath thatThe unspoken expectations that quietly build resentment between even the closest friendsHow social media has changed what we feel like we owe each other in big seasonsWhat honest communication actually looks like when the stakes feel too high to say anythingEpisode Links:Follow Ru on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ru_wolle/Read I Hope You Elope — A Bridesmaid Survival Guide: https://bookshop.org/a/55347/9781668095683Sponsors:Nebula: Go to Nebula: Spiritual Guidance Space https://nebulaapp.onelink.me/AaEA/nskvi42c and get 3 minutes for free to chat with 3 psychics matched to you.Momentous: Momentous Fiber+ is a complete, 3-in-1 formula with soluble fiber, insoluble fiber, and a prebiotic resistant starch.

Ofra splits her time among a number of hobbies in her retirement, but she wants to stop feeling rudderless and find the focus necessary to write a book of observational humor based on her twenty-year career as a psychotherapist. Enter David Epstein, workplace researcher and author of Inside the Box, who advocates for creating artificial structure and imposing concrete deadlines rather than falling into the trap of endless optionality. He introduces Ofra to an evaluation rubric for vetting creative output, advising her to write a mock press release before starting her project to define her audience and clarify the exact parenting misconceptions she wants to target. He exposes the traps of subtraction neglect that trick retirees into adding too many low-stakes activities to their daily routines.

Then Washington Free Beacon reporter Jon Levine joins to dig through the deleted tweets and academic writings of Darializa Avila Chevalier, the Zohran Mamdani-backed democratic socialist challenging Rep. Adriano Espaillat in New York's 13th Congressional District -- abolishing police, prisons, and schools, calling the American flag a dish rag, and cheering in Times Square on October 8th.

The Savvy Psychologist's Quick and Dirty Tips for Better Mental Health
562. You're hitting your goals. You're showing up. You're making it look easy. And you haven't had a full night's sleep in months. High-functioning anxiety is one of the most common — and most invisible — experiences in modern adult life. This week, Dr. Judy Ho unpacks what it actually is (and what it isn't), why the people who have it are often the last to get help, and three evidence-based tools to start treating the root rather than just managing the output.Have a mental health question?

It's November of 1983, the closest the world came to nuclear war, some may argue even closer than the Cuban Missile Crisis of 1962. Yet the Able Archer 1983 exercise incident is relatively unknown by comparison. A series of events that started with the Soviet shootdown of a Korean Air Lines plane, ended with not one but two almosts, when it came to accidental nuclear war. This included a simulated nuclear release authority request that may have been seen in Moscow as the prelude to a first strike. How these events unfolded was a result of heightened Cold War tension, antagonism, and miscommunication. Brian Morra was a US Air Force intelligence officer who had a front row seat to this, and sits down with guest host Dr. Mark Jacobson to discuss how the world came to the brink of nuclear war.

Will it be Tadej Pogačar or Jonas Vingegaard?

When his ex calls in the middle of a crisis, he finds himself pulled back into a familiar role: the rescuer. He's always been the one women confide in, the one who steps up, the one who proves he's a good man by making sure no one falls apart on his watch. It's a hero complex he wears easily. If he's needed, he feels powerful. If he's not, he feels invisible. He's the strong one, the reliable one, and yet he rarely asks for help himself. Can he be loved not just for what he gives, but for who he is? Esther Callings are a one time, 45-60 minute interventional phone call with Esther. They are edited for time, clarity, and anonymity.

Today on The Gist, Mike Pesca delivers a bittersweet announcement. Then, acclaimed novelist and political chronicler Ben Fountain joins for the entire hour to discuss his sprawling, scathing new satirical novel, Rasputin Swims the Potomac. Fountain details his decision to render the fictional president's identity as a literal redaction, the fascinating parallels between the manufactured reality of professional wrestling and the modern American electorate, and how the relentless firehose of sensory overload generated by our pocket technology forces a mass collective anxiety onto the human brain.

Two-time Oscar winner Kevin Spacey drops by Club Random for a conversation that goes exactly where you'd expect—and plenty of places you wouldn't. Bill doesn't let him dodge the tough questions, pressing Spacey on the allegations that derailed his career, the court cases that cleared him, and what it's like trying to rebuild a life from what he calls "show business jail." The two cover Hollywood's double standards, Jack Lemmon's mentorship, therapy, the Playboy Mansion, and Netflix shelving one of Spacey's completed films. Spacey also unveils what feels like an entire repertory company of impressions—Johnny Carson, Jack Lemmon, and more—as the conversation veers into Roman history, classic cinema, Dick Van Dyke's workout routine at 100, and why he thinks his best work may still be ahead of him.

After five book launches, Kelly is convinced: a book launch is the single best strategy on the planet for growing a business. And she's about to attempt her biggest one yet. In this episode, she takes you inside the strategy room: first, she shares what the Miracle Hour launch taught her about the power of radical focus, the clarity that led her to walk away from scaling a business most people would kill for, and then opens up her full 19-point playbook for the Sacred Art of Selling launch, including the goal she admits her team might kill her for saying out loud. If you've ever written a book, want to, or just want to watch a master strategist map a campaign in real time, pull up a chair.

Scotland takes over Boston, travelers flood YouTube with “America is amazing,” and suddenly a question hits hard: if the country is truly collapsing, why do so many visitors leave impressed by the people, the space, and the everyday energy? We use that contrast to dig into one of the biggest forces shaping public life right now: the gap between lived experience and the media narrative. Our goal is simple and stubbornly nonpartisan: get closer to what's real, and stop letting outrage do our thinking for us. From immigration protests to headline spin, we look at how incentives drive what gets covered and how it gets framed. We talk about the responsibility behind public demands, the role social media amplification can play in keeping us mad at each other, and why reflection is so rare when predictions miss. We also argue that competence still matters, especially for roles tied to national security and intelligence, where experience and judgment are not optional. The conversation turns to bigger cultural and moral fault lines: rising antisemitism, selective outrage, and the danger of scapegoating any group. We also touch on public clashes around LGBTQ issues, respect for veterans, and how to defend human dignity without rewarding provocation. We close with a reminder that checks and balances still work, the country is more resilient than the doom loop suggests, and clear thinking is a civic skill worth practicing.

The title of Elizabeth Roberts' new book, In Praise of Addiction, is likely to catch your attention, maybe even set off some cognitive dissonance in your mind. But the University of Michigan's Elizabeth Roberts doesn't want you to be unhealthy or take up new habits that can hurt you and others, she just wants you to consider that maybe we haven't been looking at addiction with the clearest of eyes. Why are some substances and habits tolerated and others scorned, their users told by society to abstain and isolated until they do? In her time living in Mexico, she noticed a big difference between people who drank or did drugs to cut themselves off from society versus those who used substances to connect with one another. She offers her analysis on how this was impacted by NAFTA and the War on Drugs in Mexico and puritanism and capitalism in the United States. This is a complicated issue but it's pretty healthy to challenge assumptions and to take a look at how those assumptions came to be established in the first place.

And Casey will share how she prepares for and navigates work conferences sober. Remember: a lot of time at conferences is your time! You don't have to go to every planned event. There are so many ways that you can create your own wonderful and unique sober conference experience. Community makes all the difference.

I spent the past month largely recovering from a (successful) double mastectomy—it was very intense, and I also had amazing care, from my team at UCLA, and from my family and friends. I am healing well and my prognosis couldn't be better—I'm very lucky that intervention was early and I am not fighting for my life. I recorded this episode before my surgery—I did this for a number of reasons: to record the process of navigating options, to highlight where the big fear pockets were for me, and also to work through a second diagnosis, that's scary-sounding but also in hand. If you've faced something like this—or are fearful of facing something like this—I hope my thought process is helpful. In last month's episode (“Taking Your Foot Off the Gas”), I talked a bit about needing a sabbatical—and this is why. I appreciate all of you so much—thank you for continuing to listen to Pulling the Thread while I take some time to take care of myself. I'm very grateful for your support.

My inspiring friends McArthur Kirishna and Anne Pimentel (authors, BYU grads, advocates for women and others on the margins) join us to talk about the new book (available on Substack—see show notes) which interviews Latter-day Saint women (some famous, some less so) across the world who have great wisdom to help all of us. Each chapter of the book is a post as part of The Women on the Stand Substack. Examples include: Ask the Matriarch: Golden Nuggets Ask the Matriarch: When Life is Hard Ask the Matriarch: Personal Revelation And many others. I believe we need to elevate the voices/vision/insights of women to improve our Church to better create Zion. I continue to learn so much from McArthur and Anne on what I can do to accomplish this goal. I encourage everyone to listen to the podcast and check out their Substack. Thank you McArthur and Anne.

Today on the Saturday special, we present Mike's full, two-part appearance on the public radio show and podcast The Middle with host Jeremy Hobson and California Congressman Ro Khanna. As America approaches its 250th anniversary, the panel tackles the ultimate question: what would you change about the country? Congressman Khanna champions a constitutional amendment to overturn Citizens United and eliminate dark money from politics, while Mike argues for a structural fix to expand human representation by uncapping the total seats in the House of Representatives.

Allie is joined by Mark Hitchcock, the senior pastor of Faith Bible Church in Edmond, Oklahoma, to discuss how modern events could be fulfilling the Biblical end times. Hitchcock correlates the formation of Israel and the Iran war with scriptural prophecies, while saying a peace treaty could usher in the Antichrist. However, Mark warns against trying to figure out who the Antichrist is, while he also believes the rapture will rescue believers before his appearance. Mark also has a special message for potential parents worried about the final judgment. In the end, there is no hope in this world beyond the coming of Christ.

In honor of Men's Mental Health Month, we're revisiting an episode we've always been proud of from 2022 with Charlamagne tha God (host of the widely popular radio show, The Breakfast Club, bestselling author, philanthropist) as he discusses his journey to discovering his true self apart from his famous radio persona, how CBT therapy taught him to unlearn, and his positive and frightening encounters with the spirit realm. He opens up about his history with panic attacks, the vigilance he developed while selling drugs, and how anxiety can sometimes be his superpower. Charlamagne details growing up Jehovah's Witness, why he believes God is a woman, and the origins of his dark sense of humor. He explains why he uses his authentic, unapologetic voice to touch on touchy subjects especially around mental health gaps in the Black community, including the intergenerational trauma and institutional racism that can prevent minorities from seeking support. Mayim and Charlamagne consider anxiety around returning to our hometowns and bond over their love for Marvel comics and Judy Blume books.Make your summer wardrobe feel easier.
