EPISODE 633 - Chris Kruger - Walking Away from the Ledge - A Soldier's Memoir, the raw truth of war, survival, and self-destructionWalking Away from the Ledge: A Soldier's MemoirWalking Away from the Ledge is a hard-hitting, no-BS military memoir that goes beyond the battlefield to expose the raw truth of war, survival, and self-destruction. With an unapologetic voice and brutal honesty, Chris takes readers deep inside the challenging world of an Army Ranger, the brotherhood that holds soldiers together, and the personal demons that threaten to tear them apart.More than a war story, this book is about what happens when the fight doesn't end—the toll of combat, the grip of addiction, and the struggle to hold onto love when everything else is falling apart. This memoir hits hard, digs deep, and refuses to look away.https://paradedeck.com/news/author/christopher-krugerhttps://a.co/d/b4CukhOSupport the show___https://livingthenextchapter.com/podcast produced by: https://truemediasolutions.ca/Coffee Refills are always appreciated, refill Dave's cup here, and thanks!https://buymeacoffee.com/truemediaca

This week on Black on Black Cinema, the crew returns to discuss the 2024 film, 40 Acres. The film follows a Black and First Nation family in a post-apocalyptic world ravaged by famine. Their routine has kept the fed and safe for many years. The household is headed by Hailey (Danielle Deadwyler) who's connection to her family is put in peril when their farm is attacked by cannibals.

"Anything beats writing. Writing is tough," says John McPhee, staff writer for The New Yorker and author of more than thirty books of nonfiction.Hey CNFers, this is Episode 500 of The Creative Nonfiction Podcast, the show where I speak to tellers of true tales about the true tales they tell. There are kilometer stones like 100, 200, 300, and 400, but this one, this is a milestone and it features the writer and journalist who made me want to write narrative nonfiction in the first place: John McPhee.John is a titan, a soft-spoken titan. He is the author of more than 30 books, including A Sense of Where You Are, Levels of the Game, his Pulitzer Prize-winning Annals of the Former World, and the book that made me want to write nonfiction: The Survival of the Bark Canoe. John is 94 years young, still lives in Princeton where he has taught an exclusive masterclass on factual storytelling, a class taken by the likes of David Remnick and the late Grant Wahl, I believe, among countless people who have gone on to write and report with distinction.He's been a staff writer for The New Yorker since the 1960s when William Shawn was the editor. Not long thereafter, he was offered a job to teach at his alma mater Princeton University and he famously edited students' submissions not unlike how Shawn edited him at The New Yorker. He's written about such wide ranging topics from basketball, to tennis, to bark canoes, to Alaska, to lacrosse, to oranges, to myriad topics in geology.John is synonymous with thinking through structure and coming up with unique structures for most of his stories, each one something of a fingerprint: no two are alike and the facts borne out from this intensive, slow reporting dictate the shape of the story he has locked into.His work is methodical and patient. He hangs out. He fills notebook after notebook, rarely uses a recorder, maybe only if there's someone speaking in such technical jargon that there's no way to keep pace. His career has been this wonderful balance of give and take: teach for most of the year and not write; then write and not teach. John is unassuming and gentle and an example of how you can do this work without bombast or pyro and still be riveting and sometimes downright hilarious.So we talk about: The influence of his high school English teacher Olive McKee Living room fighters Writing on spec The notebooks he's used for decades How a lack of confidences is an asset What a good editor does Writing as teaching How having a plan frees you to write The panic of having not written leads to productivity And how proud of his daughters he isParting shot on what it all means at 500 and maybe where I see the show going for the next 500.Order The Front RunnerNewsletter: Rage Against the AlgorithmWelcome to Pitch ClubShow notes: brendanomeara.com

Send us a textWhen Boston was deep in meth psychosis, he believed he was opening a portal to the demonic. Covered in self-inflicted wounds, living in trap houses surrounded by violence, he thought there was no coming back. But what he experienced next changed everything.Boston's story bridges addiction, faith, and the supernatural. From years of using and surviving near-death experiences to writing Fire and Ice: The Meth Bible—now a #1 bestseller—he describes the dark side of methamphetamine, the shadow figures that haunt users, and the spiritual warfare that surrounds addiction.After a car crash that should have killed him, Boston believes God stepped in. He woke up to a new mission, to help others trapped in meth addiction find faith, freedom, and healing.This conversation isn't about fear. It's about truth, transformation, and the battle for the human soul, one that begins and ends with choice.✅ Check SEIU West✅ Wellness News✅ Bunny Hugs and Mental HealthFind Boston's book "Fire and Ice: The Meth Bible" on Amazon HERESupport the showCheck out the speakeasy podcast Follow Daniel Unmanageable on Facebook Follow Project Sparky We've got fresh merch and it's amazing!

This is a very special episode of Unpacked by Afar. This week we hosted Unpacked Live, a—you guessed it—live version of the podcast in partnership with Visit California in Boston, Massachusetts.

This week on Fright Flick FMK, we crack open Eric Stanze's Scrapbook (2000)—a film that doesn't just horrify, it violates every boundary of comfort. Inside this underground nightmare, a killer keeps a scrapbook of agony, documenting every scream, every humiliation, every broken soul. Spoilers ahead: The scrapbook isn't a diary—it's a graveyard of shattered lives. Survival isn't heroic—it's a descent into something worse than death. By the final page, sanity is shredded, and morality is ash. This isn't horror for the faint of heart. It's psychological vivisection, a raw look at human depravity that will leave you questioning your own limits. https://wickedpixel.com/films/ Wicked Pixel Cinema Facebook

Conrad Shaw “So much of the labor market is driven by desperation. UBI shifts that. People can actually hold out for what they're worth or for work that aligns with who they are.” — Conrad ShawConrad is perhaps the most unique guest I have had in the 5 year history of this show and he is on to talk about Universal Basic Income (UBI) , a very unique topic that is growing in exposure.For almost a decade Conrad has dedicated his life and career to furthering the cause of Universal Basic Income (UBI).In 2016 he and his wife started a documentary called Bootstraps which focuses on following families who lived through the experience of a basic income.Since then, he has:* Fundraised for and operated a nationwide basic income pilot* Filmed a multi-year docuseries currently in post-production* Co-founded Commingle, a mutual-aid platform enabling communities to self-fund their own grassroots basic income systems* Worked extensively on messaging, outreach, and public education around income, stability, and societal transformationI learned a lot from Conrad and our conversation debunked my own myths about UBI. So a really important part of this episode is the truth about what Universal Basic Income (UBI) actually is — and what it is not.What Universal Basic Income (UBI) Is — And What It Isn'tUBI is the idea that every person receives a recurring, unconditional, baseline income — a financial floor that ensures no one starts the month at zero. It is not meant to replace work or equalize everybody's income. Instead, it shifts the starting point so people can make decisions from stability rather than desperation.What UBI is:* A stable, universal base-level income for all* A platform for economic mobility and personal freedom* A modernized, simplified social safety net* A tool for reducing the survival-based pressure in the labor marketWhat UBI is not:* It does not eliminate jobs* It does not cap how much people can earn* It does not remove incentives to work* It is not a socialist equal-wealth systemUBI reframes the labor market so people compete for work based on interest, alignment, and ability, not raw financial need.Practical Ways UBI Could WorkConrad's work goes beyond speculation. He has spent nearly a decade building practical UBI experiments, including the national pilot documented in Bootstraps (2016) and his current role with the Income To Support All Foundation and Commingle, a new community-driven model.He explains that UBI can be implemented through several pathways—government programs, private pilots, or community-level mutual aid—but none are simple. A government-led UBI requires political will and rethinking how we allocate resources. Philanthropic pilots can demonstrate impact, but they're temporary. Community models like Commingle allow people to pool and redistribute resources now, without waiting for legislation, but scaling them is challenging.What's clear is that executing UBI at any level is difficult, requiring trust, infrastructure, and cultural acceptance. Yet the difficulty doesn't diminish the need. Instead, it underscores why experimentation and new models matter.Individual Differences: Why UBI Supports People Doing What They're Meant to DoOne of the deepest connections between Conrad's work and mine is the concept of individual differences—the idea that every person brings a unique constellation of strengths, traits, interests, and abilities that make them naturally better suited to certain kinds of work.When people are trapped in survival mode, those natural gifts often go unused. They pick jobs they can get, not jobs that reflect who they are. Freedom from this paradigm reshapes careers in ways that benefit both individuals and employers, allowing people to walk away from toxic or exploitative conditions and take jobs they genuinely care about, leading to better performance and engagement.With a secure foundation, people have the psychological and financial freedom to make career decisions based on fit, not fear. This supports:* Better alignment between person and role* Higher engagement and intrinsic motivation* Better workforce outcomes because people choose work that matches their abilities* Greater societal value, as more people apply their genuine talents instead of defaulting to whatever job pays immediatelyFrom Conrad's perspective, this alignment is one of the most compelling aspects of UBI. When people are free to choose work that resonates with their abilities, the labor market becomes more efficient and more human. Employers gain workers who actually want to be there. Individuals gain a sense of purpose rooted in their authentic strengths.In a world where AI, automation, and job volatility make career paths uncertain, helping people express their natural abilities becomes more important—not less.How AI Fits Into the UBI ConversationAI enters this conversation as both a catalyst and a complicating force. As Conrad points out, technological change is accelerating so quickly that we can no longer predict which jobs will exist, which skills will matter, or how stable any given career path will be. This uncertainty puts enormous pressure on individuals—especially those who don't have the luxury to retrain, take risks, or weather employment gaps. UBI provides a stabilizing infrastructure in that landscape, giving people the freedom to adapt as work evolves rather than being overwhelmed by it.AI serves the UBI concept well because it highlights the importance of individual differences: as routine tasks get automated, the value of uniquely human abilities—creativity, empathy, problem-solving, and deep domain expertise—rises. UBI supports people in discovering and developing those strengths, while also offering society a buffer as AI reshapes industries faster than institutions can respond. In this way, AI doesn't replace the need for UBI—it makes the case for it even stronger.Why Making UBI Work Matters in an Uncertain FutureWe must acknowledge the reality: we are entering a period defined by instability—rapid technological change, unpredictable job markets, and widening gaps between opportunity and access. In such an environment, the old assumptions about steady careers, stable industries, and predictable pathways no longer hold.UBI becomes a tool for resilience. It doesn't solve every problem, but it gives people the space to adapt, learn, and navigate a chaotic future without falling into crisis. It creates room for people to pursue what they're best suited for, rather than what pays the most simply out of need.The conversation frames UBI not as a political ideology but as a human-centered adaptation strategy—a way to strengthen psychological well-being, improve labor market alignment, and provide society with a more stable foundation as the world accelerates around us.The truth is that UBI isn't easy; it's a fight against gravity in a system not built for change, but we are entering into an unprecedented level of uncertainty in all aspects of our lives- so we need to have creative and idealistic solutions This is a public episode.

Send us a textWhat happens when we force our co-hosts to argue the exact opposite of what they believe about Shaun of the Dead? Sparks. We flip the table, press every hot button—humor that lands vs humor that dates, heart that sings vs tone that whiplashes—and let the best case win.We start with the big question: is Edgar Wright's kinetic style a stroke of comic engineering or noise that undercuts fear? From the record-throwing bit to the Queen-backed bar fight, we pull apart pacing, sound cues, and visual jokes to see whether the film earns its cult status through craft or coasts on nostalgia. Then we get into the heart of it: Shaun's stagnation, his strained ties with Liz, the stepdad reckoning, and that gut-punch with his mum. Does the movie really blend grief with laughs, or does it swerve away right when emotion matters most?Survival strategy takes center stage as we audit the Winchester plan like preppers. Limited exits, loud jukebox, paper-thin food options—smart fallback or chaos magnet? We weigh leadership under pressure, group dynamics, and the fine line between bravado and a bad call. Finally, a lightning round forces fast judgments on the best scene, Shaun's dumbest move, whether Ed is loyal or dead weight, and if we'd personally make it out alive against shambly, slow-moving zombies.If you love horror-comedy, Edgar Wright, zombie survival analysis, or just sharp debate with punchy humor, this one's loaded with takeaways: how to judge tone balance, what makes a joke structure timeless, and why “good enough” plans crumble in a siege. Listen, then tell us where you land—masterpiece or lucky timing? Tap follow, leave a five-star rating, and share this episode with a friend who swears the Winchester was a good idea. Your vote might settle the debate—or start a new one.

In this episode of Owning Pleasure As A Black Woman, we dive into the often misunderstood journey of perimenopause and menopause. Dr. Taniqua Miller, a board-certified OBGYN and certified menopause specialist, joins us to discuss the real symptoms women experience, why traditional healthcare often falls short, and how to build a comprehensive care team for this major life transition. Tune in as we explore the physical, emotional, and relational changes that come with this transition, practical strategies for managing symptoms, and why community matters more than ever during midlife. If you're looking to understand what's happening in your body during perimenopause or support someone going through it, you won't want to miss this one!Key Takeaways: ● Understanding the Timeline: Perimenopause typically lasts 4-5 years before menopause (defined as 12 months without a period), with early symptoms often showing up as mood changes, joint pain, and sleep disruption before the classic hot flashes arrive. ● Build Your Care Team: Just like pregnancy or adolescence, this transition requires a comprehensive support system including medical providers, mental health professionals, pelvic floor physical therapists, and community—not just one annual doctor's visit. ● You're Not Broken: The grief, rage, brain fog, and physical changes are real physiological responses to hormonal shifts, not personal failures. Self-compassion and education are the first steps toward reclaiming agency during this transition.Listen Now: Ready to get inspired?

“When wallets hurt, the truth matters.”

We've all witnessed it — those chilling moments when a crime unfolds in broad daylight and people simply walk by. A car slams into a bicyclist. The rider lays motionless on the pavement, and tens of passersby keep moving as if nothing happened. Another time, someone is being mugged in full public view — and no one lifts a finger.But what's even more disturbing is the follow-up reaction. Some people don't even see this insensitivity as a problem. I once spoke about this in a public lecture, and a man raised his hand: “Why should I care? It's a dog-eat-dog world. Survival of the fittest. I have my own problems. Most people wouldn't help me — so why should I help them?”A painful question. Yet beneath it lies a truth we don't want to face: injustice is happening around us constantly. Children are being bullied right now. People are being hurt, even killed — and countless others stand by, complicit in their silence, numb in their indifference.So why should we care?What responsibility do we bear for one another?And what does our reaction — or lack of reaction — reveal about the state of our souls and the condition of our society?Please join Rabbi Simon Jacobson for this urgent and deeply personal exploration. This conversation is not a critique; it is a wake-up call. A call to reawaken our conscience, to pierce the shell of apathy, to recognize the integral connection and responsibility we have for each other, and to rediscover the power each of us holds to bring light into a darkened world.

Have you ever stood in a place that shattered what you thought you knew was possible? For me, Dubai is that place—a place where they really built something from nothing. In reflecting on my time there, I've gathered some of the biggest takeaways, and I'm sharing them in this episode. From the power of pivoting to how asking for help is actually mandatory if you want to build, I'm walking away with a lot from my experience in Dubai. I hope you can use these lessons too. In this episode, you will learn about: What I expected from Dubai versus what it actually showed me. Why asking for help isn't a weakness, but mandatory for your biggest visions. How to create your own opportunities instead of waiting for the perfect conditions. What I learned about judgment and owning your voice so you can shine. What it means to build your own 50-year plan like they have in Dubai. How to be memorable in your business and why it matters. Why you shouldn't wait to pivot, and how to pivot from a place of power.

Host Dirk Friel sits down with Dr. Scott Frey, author, neuroscientist, and psychologist, for a deep dive into the critical role that the brain plays in endurance sports performance. Scott Frey explains how the brain is the "central command and control center" for both physical and cognitive performance, and how neuroplasticity—our brain's ability to change—offers untapped potential for athletes.

In this episode, Tom sits down for part two of his riveting conversation with Dr. Roman Yampolski, a leading AI safety researcher. Together, they dive deep into the existential risks and moral quandaries posed by artificial superintelligence, exploring why even some of the industry's most vocal advocates for caution—like Elon Musk—end up accelerating the development of advanced AI. Dr. Yampolski pulls no punches, explaining why attempts to control superintelligent systems might be futile, the challenges of aligning AI interests with humanity's well-being, and the reasons he's so skeptical that society can pump the brakes on innovation. The discussion ranges from the dangers of an unchecked AI arms race and the psychological burden of confronting these risks, to practical approaches for boosting AI safety and the impact of emerging technologies like quantum computing and genetic engineering. Tom and Roman also touch on longevity science, ethics around gene editing, and the future of personal adaptation across generations. Whether you're an optimist about technology or deeply concerned about humanity's trajectory, this episode is packed with insight, tough questions, and thought-provoking perspectives that will leave you rethinking the future of intelligence—both artificial and human.

Michael speaks with Dr. Kirill Shamiev, a non-resident fellow at the Kennan Institute, about the internal dynamics of the Kremlin and its war in Ukraine. Dr. Shamiev discusses the growing skepticism among the Russian elite regarding Putin's invasion, increasing economic anxiety, and the current state of the regime.

Episode Topic: The Medicine of Life: Social Life and Survival in Wild BaboonsBeth Archie Ph.D., is the Nieuwland collegiate professor at the University of Notre Dame who studies the social lives of wild baboons in Kenya's Amboseli ecosystem. Her work focuses on how social relationships affect an animal's health, disease risk, and survival. Using data from the Amboseli Baboon Research Project, she shows that socially connected baboons live longer and that early-life adversity can shorten their lifespan. She also shares new findings on the role of fathers in baboon societies, revealing that a strong social relationship with a father can buffer against adversity and lead to increased survival in their daughters.Featured Speakers:Beth Archie Ph.D., Nieuwland Collegiate Professor in the Department of Biological Sciences, University of Notre Dame.Read this episode's recap over on the University of Notre Dame's open online learning community platform, ThinkND: https://go.nd.edu/06c9b5.This podcast is a part of the ThinkND Series titled Our Universe Revealed.Thanks for listening!

In Captain's Dinner: A Shipwreck, an Act of Cannibalism, and a Murder Trial That Changed Legal History, acclaimed legal historian and New York Times bestselling author Adam Cohen masterfully reconstructs the ill-fated 1884 voyage of the yacht Mignonette.  On May 19, 1884, the yacht set sail from England to Australia. Soon, Captain Thomas Dudley and his crew found themselves adrift in a tiny lifeboat when their vessel sank in the Atlantic. Unfortunately, no one had thought ahead to stock the lifeboat with fresh water and food, and as days turned to weeks, the men faced an unthinkable choice: starve to death or resort to cannibalism. Their decision to sacrifice the youngest, 17-year-old cabin boy Richard Parker, ignited a firestorm of controversy upon their rescue. Instead of being hailed as heroes and survivors, Dudley and his crew found themselves at the center of a landmark murder trial that would transform law and ethics forever. In CAPTAIN'S DINNER, Cohen brings to life both the harrowing weeks at sea and the subsequent sensational trial. Through this Victorian tragedy, Cohen reveals an enduring conflict between humanity's primal instincts and its highest moral principles, forcing readers to ask how far they would go to stay alive? Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/arroe-collins-like-it-s-live--4113802/support.

Ex-FBI sniper Christopher Whitcomb survived warlords, black ops, and helicopter crashes. He's here to explain how calculating risk kept him alive. [Pt. 1/2]Full show notes and resources can be found here: jordanharbinger.com/1242What We Discuss with Christopher Whitcomb:Risk calculation becomes second nature in high-stakes environments. Christopher Whitcomb describes constant mental math in life-threatening situations, assessing odds, escape routes, and survival probabilities while meeting warlords or navigating hostile territories.The psychological toll of extreme operations is cumulative and often invisible. Years of black ops, moral ambiguity, and life-threatening missions create layers of trauma that don't announce themselves until something breaks, making the "finding himself again" journey essential.Helicopters are surprisingly resilient war machines. Contrary to Hollywood's explosive fantasies, Vietnam proved these birds can take serious damage and stay airborne. When power does fail, auto-rotation uses blade inertia to control descent, turning disaster into survivable physics.Adrenaline addiction isn't about having too much adrenaline. Christopher Whitcomb explains he wasn't addicted because he didn't have it; his body adapted to extreme situations by no longer producing the chemical response most people experience, revealing how repeated exposure rewires our biology.Understanding the physics of consequence helps you push boundaries without crossing them. Whether rock climbing, tactical operations, or any high-risk endeavor, calculating limits lets you explore your edge safely.

Pattie Ehsaei's life may look picture-perfect now—she's a financial exec, lawyer, and author—but it's been shaped by unimaginable tragedy. Pattie grew up watching her mom depend entirely on her dad financially, a dynamic that turned toxic and ended in unimaginable tragedy. Later, Pattie found herself in a financially abusive relationship of her own, repeating painful patterns until she broke the cycle.  Today, she shares the lessons she's learned about love, money, and power—wisdom she's also laid out in her book, Never Date a Broke Dude. Nicole and Pattie talk about why who you choose as a partner is the biggest financial decision you'll ever make, how stay-at-home parents can protect their financial autonomy, and how to spot the money red flags that don't always look like red flags.

SURVIVAL DURING THE SIEGE OF JERUSALEM Guest: Professor Barry Strauss Before the siege of Jerusalem was sealed, two foundational groups fled: Rabbi Yohanan Ben Zakai, smuggled out to Yavneh to establish Rabbinic Judaism, and the followers of Jesus, who went to Pella. Titus focused the Roman assault on the city's weakest point, the northern wall. The overconfident Romans were repeatedly frustrated by Jewish defenders using effective irregular tactics, including raids and undermining siege equipment. 1698
