    Donna Adelson's sentencing day quickly turned into a legal spectacle — with her defense team pushing back hard, arguing that she never received a fair trial. From calling out prosecutors to questioning the Markels and even taking aim at the judge, Donna's team made their most defiant stand yet. But is this bold courtroom strategy part of a bigger plan… or simply Donna Adelson's last attempt to keep control as she prepares for life behind bars? Welcome to Surviving the Survivor, the show that brings you the #BestGuests in all of #truecrime. In this STS episode, host Joel Waldman and #BestGuests break down the dramatic courtroom moments, the defense's surprising tone, and what it all means for the future of the Adelson family. Dan Markel, a beloved Florida State law professor, was brutally murdered in 2014 in a murder-for-hire plot tied to a bitter family dispute. Both Charlie and Donna Adelson have now been convicted for their roles in the crime — and many believe the pursuit of justice for Dan Markel will continue.Thanks for supporting the show and being a part of #STSNation! Donate to STS' Trial Travel: Https://www.paypal.com/ncp/payment/GJ...VENMO: @STSPodcast or Https://www.venmo.com/stspodcastCheck out STS Merch: Https://www.bonfire.com/store/sts-store/Joel's Book: Https://amzn.to/48GwbLxSupport the show on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/SurvivingTheSurvivorEmail: SurvivingTheSurvivor@gmail.com Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

    The Secret Teachings
    Halloween Divination with Ancient Intelligence (10/16/25)

    The Secret Teachings

    Play Episode Listen Later Oct 16, 2025 120:00 Transcription Available


    Divinatory practices were an important part of traditional Halloween ritual. The veil between worlds was thinned by both the season transition and the close proximity of our ancestors to the spirits of nature. Surviving winter was a superstitious and hopeful affair and divination eased the transition, just as it provided comfort for the living and dead. One was either to be prosperous or die. Most divination was focused on marriage, from apples and cabbage to kale and nuts. The forbidding of divination in various religious texts, and the emphasis placed on the one true God, is a matter of perspective considering the Druids, with Christian symbols, held this God to be found in nature and sky. Divination today is often done behind a thicker veil and for less serious reasons. In 2025 it is even easier to turn to Grok or ChatGPT, perhaps one of a number of religious applications, to fulfill the spiritual need, consult oracles, and commune with the other side. However, this is leading rapidly to false prophets, psychosis, and paranoid delusion. Interestingly, up to half of all chatbots and AI driven systems are released in the fall months, and up to a third of all cases of violence or psychosis resulting from chatbot use occurs in the same timeframe. A recent ritual EDM show at the pyramids in Egypt takes the discussion to another dimension. On a stage set by two massive pillars and wire, a laser light show produced an enormous robot that broke through the portal glass on October 10. The show was called Quantum DJ and The End of Genesys, the latter indicating perhaps the end of organic evolution and the start of synthetic change. Whereas the Druids danced east to west in alignment with the sun, and the whirling dervishes in circles to align with the planets, an EDM show themed by the end of God's creation and drug field orgy of mindless erratic dancing is sure to invoke the absolute worst from the other side. The AI apps that people believe have connected them with God have instead connected them with the black mirror and a world of death with no hope of internal salvation. The modern idea of artificial intelligence itself may be akin to a sinister ancient intelligence that our ancestors sought to protect themselves against. *The is the FREE archive, which includes advertisements.

    Entrepreneurial Insights: Surviving and Thriving as a Solopreneur with Greg Woodward Woodwardstrategies.com About the Guest(s): Gregory Woodward is the founder and CEO of Woodward Strategies, a renowned revenue operations and inside sales advisory located in Washington, DC. As an entrepreneur with a drive for outbound sales and pipeline generation, Greg has led his company to work with numerous private equity and venture capital firms, significantly contributing to several multi-billion dollar exits. Woodward's innovative approaches focus on integrating sales teams and scaling business development rep teams, making him a sought-after expert in his field. Episode Summary: In this engaging episode of The Chris Voss Show, Chris welcomes Gregory Woodward, the visionary behind Woodward Strategies. Over the course of the discussion, Greg delves into his journey as a solopreneur, dissecting the challenges and triumphs involved in building a seven-figure business without external investors or partners. This episode offers a deep dive into the entrepreneurial mindset, exploring the core motivations and strategic insights that drive successful business ventures. As Gregory Woodward reveals his passion for outbound sales and revenue operations, the conversation branches out into discussions about the future implications of artificial intelligence in business. With a critical eye, Greg provides a nuanced perspective on how AI investments are shaping the business landscape, stressing the need for innovative thinking. Through anecdotes and reflections on personal experiences, both Chris and Greg offer valuable lessons on the importance of mindset and strategic autonomy in business. This episode is a compelling listen for aspiring entrepreneurs and business leaders looking to navigate the modern economic terrain. Key Takeaways: The path to becoming a successful solopreneur often involves significant personal and professional challenges, but also offers rewarding freedom from traditional corporate constraints. Having a mindset that embraces risk and persistent learning is crucial for entrepreneurs, especially when the journey involves navigating through uncertain and uncharted territories. Building a successful business from scratch often requires a willingness to endure a period of uncertainty and discomfort, typically longer than most anticipate. Artificial intelligence is a hot topic in the tech world; however, many companies are still exploring its potential rather than fully understanding or implementing it effectively. Establishing a business model that values independence and flexibility can lead to greater satisfaction and success, free from the pressures of external investors or rigid hierarchies. Notable Quotes: "Having anybody else in charge of directing your day-to-day? To me, I consider that like a private hell." "If you look at a business like mine or many solopreneur-type businesses…compare it to a company that just raised $40 million…who's EBITDA do you think is higher?" "The grass always looks greener on the other side of the fence…some people should not be entrepreneurs." "The pressure's gonna change when they have to start showing an ROI on their AI investment." "There's a period of time…where you're so far into it you can't see where you came from…that's a lonely place for entrepreneurs."

    Parenting Through Meltdowns: Turning Chaos into Connection Every parent has been there—the dreaded meltdown. Whether it's your toddler on the kitchen floor, your teenager slamming a door, or even you holding back tears in the car, meltdowns are part of family life. But what if these moments aren't just problems to solve, but opportunities to connect? In this episode of the Crazy Cool Family Podcast, Don and Suzanne share wisdom from raising seven kids and over 30 years of parenting experience to help you reframe how you see meltdowns. We'll dive into why meltdowns happen, how they make us feel as parents, and—most importantly—how to respond in ways that build character, strengthen relationships, and reduce chaos in your home over time. You'll learn practical strategies for handling toddler tantrums, school-day meltdowns, and teenage blow-ups without adding fuel to the fire. From turning a “no” into a redirect, to knowing when to pause and offer grace, this conversation will help you see meltdowns as moments to disciple, not just discipline. We'll also explore the spiritual side of meltdowns—how God uses adversity to grow us, and how we can model compassion, patience, and love even when emotions run high. Parenting isn't about perfection—it's about connection. So, if you've ever felt embarrassed, overwhelmed, or unsure in the face of a meltdown, this episode is for you.

    NFL Hall of Famer Curtis Martin shares the raw truth behind his legendary career: he never really loved football. Despite becoming the sixth all-time leading rusher in NFL history, Curtis reveals that football was simply a vehicle for a deeper purpose, and his greatest accomplishment had nothing to do with the game. Curtis opens up about surviving extreme childhood violence in Pittsburgh, having a gun held to his head, finding his grandmother brutally murdered, and becoming "the man of the house" at age four. He shares the extraordinary story of helping his mother forgive his father after 22 years of bitterness, making a deal with God at 20 convinced he wouldn't live past 21, and why consistency, not talent, became his superpower. From navigating a world where 30 friends were murdered before graduation to setting out to finish his career with "a name worth more than the money I made," Curtis reveals what it truly means to live with purpose, conquer fear, and die empty.

    This episode is essential listening for anyone who's inherited an IRA, especially in light of the game-changing SECURE Act. If you've inherited a retirement account from a non-spouse since 2020, this episode is packed with details you need to know to avoid unexpected tax bills and penalties. I explain the new rules for inherited IRAs, explaining the requirements and options for non-designated, non-eligible, and eligible designated beneficiaries. Whether you're figuring out minimum distributions or seeking smart tax-planning strategies, you'll get clear guidance on how these updates affect you, plus tips to steer clear of common mistakes in 2025 and beyond. You will want to hear this episode if you are interested in... [00:00] Inherited IRAs: key details explained. [02:36] SECURE Act and rule changes. [04:18] Retirement account beneficiary guidance. [07:13] IRA inheritance withdrawal rules. [10:31] IRA distribution rules explained. [13:36] Get in touch for more inherited IRA guidance & support. Inherited IRAs After the SECURE Act: What You Need to Know Before 2020, inherited IRAs were relatively simple: most non-spouse beneficiaries could "stretch" required minimum distributions (RMDs) over their lifetime, potentially lowering annual tax bills. The SECURE Act changed that. If you inherited an IRA from someone who passed away on or after January 1, 2020, new distribution rules likely apply to you, and ignorance could cost you in penalties. The law categorizes beneficiaries into three groups, and the rules differ based on which kind you are. 1. Non-Designated Beneficiaries Non-designated beneficiaries are not people; think estates, certain trusts (non-qualifying), or charities. Naming your estate as the beneficiary might not be the best move if you want your family to get the most options. Here's why: If the original owner died before their required beginning date (generally April 1 of the year they turned 73), the account must be fully distributed within five years. If they died after that date, the estate can take distributions using the deceased owner's single life expectancy, but this is still less flexible than for individual beneficiaries. 2. Non-Eligible Designated Beneficiaries This is the category most adult children, grandchildren, and some trusts fall into. For these individuals, the rules are as follows: If the owner died before their required beginning date (age 73), you must drain the IRA within ten years, but there's no mandate on interim distributions until year 10. Be careful, though, a massive, one-year withdrawal could push you into a higher tax bracket. If the owner died after their required beginning date, Annual RMDs start the year after death using the single life expectancy table, and the account must be completely emptied by the end of the tenth year. 3. Eligible Designated Beneficiaries This privileged group gets more flexibility, including: Surviving spouses (who can treat the IRA as their own or as inherited). Minor children (of the deceased owner, but only until age 21). Disabled and chronically ill individuals. Individuals no more than ten years younger than the deceased. They're allowed to take stretch distributions based on their own life expectancy, often leading to much smaller annual withdrawals and lower taxes. Planning Opportunities and Tax Pitfalls The IRS wants its share, and waiting until year 10 to take out all the funds could mean a significant tax hit. Instead, you might consider spreading withdrawals over several years, especially if you know you'll retire before year 10, lowering your tax rate in some of those years. Beneficiaries must also remember critical deadlines. Because the IRS allowed a moratorium on required distributions from 2021 to 2024 due to pandemic-related confusion, many will need to start withdrawing in 2025. Missing a required distribution can cost you 25% of the amount you should have taken, ouch! Practical Steps for Beneficiaries Review the decedent's date of death: This will determine which rules apply. Identify what type of beneficiary you are. Plan withdrawals smartly: Don't let inertia trigger a tax bomb in your tenth year. Consult a financial advisor: The rules are complex, and the stakes are high; personalized advice can help prevent costly mistakes. Don't name your estate or a non-qualifying trust as your beneficiary if you want your heirs to have better options. Inherited IRAs under the SECURE Act require more attention than ever before. Get proactive: determine your beneficiary type, mark your calendar for required distributions, and develop a tax strategy that fits your situation.

    Have you ever felt like you’ve been living as a version of yourself that isn’t quite you—the one who smiles when exhausted, says “I’m fine” when breaking, and keeps the peace even when your soul is screaming for truth? While most healing advice focuses on moving forward, real transformation happens when you come home to yourself. In this powerful episode, psychologist, author, and sacred artist Dr Thema Bryant reveals the journey from trauma to truth and what it truly means to reclaim your authentic self after years of people-pleasing and self-abandonment. The Healer Who Has Healed Dr Thema Bryant isn’t just a psychologist who studies healing—she’s a healer who has walked her own journey through trauma and transformation. As a survivor of sexual violence, she discovered that reclaiming her body through dance protected her relationship with herself during the healing process. With a doctorate in Clinical Psychology from Duke University, post-doctoral training at Harvard Medical Centre’s Victims of Violence Program, and as the 2023 president of the American Psychological Association, Dr Thema combines academic excellence with deeply personal wisdom. Her recently released book, Matters of the Heart (Penguin Random House, February 2025), empowers readers to heal their relationships with themselves and others. What Homecoming Really Means Dr Thema’s most powerful insight: “To come home to myself is to tell myself the truth and to live based on that truth.” When we experience interpersonal trauma, we develop survival mechanisms that disconnect us from ourselves. We become experts at anticipating others’ needs, moulding ourselves to keep the peace, and sending our “representative” instead of our authentic self. This people-pleasing pattern may have kept us safe, but it keeps us living as side characters in our own lives. The Truth About Healing “Healing doesn’t always feel good in the moment. Healing can feel awkward. It can feel messy. I’ve even had some people say it feels fake because they’re used to faking it.” This discomfort triggers our deepest fears of abandonment and rejection. But here’s the liberating truth: you can be real and still be loved. While some people may walk away when you show up authentically, this creates space for genuine connections with kindred spirits who align with your true self. Trauma Affects You, But It Doesn’t Define You Dr Thema reveals how many of us unconsciously make the people who hurt us the central characters in our lives. “Everything we do is in response to them—’I hope they see me now. Wait till they see me now.’ So they’re still the centre of it. I’m trying to prove my worthiness to them.” The gift of healing is removing them from centre stage and showing up fully for your own life. From Surviving to Thriving Dr Thema draws a critical distinction using Maya Angelou’s wisdom: “Surviving is necessary, but thriving is elegant.” Survival is making it through each day. Thriving is developing your gifts, cultivating healthy relationships, building your strengths, and learning to be soft in places you’ve hardened. The journey requires moving beyond just relieving distress to experiencing genuine growth, purpose, and joy. Breaking Generational Patterns Some wounds we have, we actually inherited. Dr Thema encourages us to reflect on which lessons from our parents and ancestors are wisdom worth keeping, which need adjustment, and which should be released entirely. We can honour previous generations without duplicating patterns that no longer serve us. The Boundary Challenge On boundaries, Dr Thema offers revealing insight: from childhood, girls are conditioned through toys and social messaging to prioritise caretaking and self-sacrifice, while boys learn to advocate for themselves and pursue what they want. When you take care of yourself, people call it selfish—but that’s the conditioning we must unlearn. Three Golden Nuggets: Start Today Wake Up Before You Have to Get Up. Start your day nourishing yourself instead of rushing around feeling anxious. Create morning space for you. Check Your Circle: Be careful about who you keep in your inner circle. Choose people aligned with your healing who see your value and worth. Never Give Up on Chang.e You are not stuck. Whatever age you are, it’s not too late to grow, transform, and give yourself permission to try something different. About Dr Thema Bryant Dr Thema Bryant is a psychologist, author, professor, sacred artist, and minister leading the way in creating healthy relationships and healing trauma. She is a tenured professor at Pepperdine University, host of The Homecoming Podcast, and author of Matters of the Heart. Dr. Thema is an ordained elder in the African Methodist Episcopal Church and leads the mental health ministry at First A.M.E. Church in Los Angeles. Key Takeaway Coming home to yourself isn’t about learning more tactics. It’s about doing the internal work to tell yourself the truth, reclaim your voice, and live from the center of your being. When you can be authentic instead of performing, you unlock a level of freedom that changes everything.

Erin tells us about her local Oktoberfest, a story that involves parking in a farm field , a dreaded shuttle bus full of drunk people , and a confusing "cashless" system that requires you to blindly buy tickets to purchase anything. We check in on Dan's very questionable marathon training, which involves no socks , a straw hat , and a unique fueling strategy. In a case of "mom and dad are fighting" , we break down the lawsuit between Strava and Garmin over features like heat maps and segments. We also touch on the Phillies in the playoffs , a clever "tush push" fake out from the Eagles , and a potential match fixing scandal shaking up the NFL. Things get even more obscure as we uncover the high stakes world of competitive parallel parking and a cheating scandal that has rocked the World Stone Skipping Championships. Erin also recounts a trip to the tourist packed town of Jim Thorpe that ends with trespassing to see a bald eagle. We discuss the catharsis of a "scream club" in Chicago , and debate the merits of suing corporations over moldy cookies. Finally, we share a rant about misleading survivalist videos , learn the shocking singular form of "pierogi" , and end on a wholesome note with a video of an elderly woman becoming the main character at a block party.

    Egypt's Retreat and the Emergence of New Kingdoms in the Early Iron Age AUTHOR NAME: Eric Cline BOOK TITLE: 1177 BC, the year civilization collapsed; After 1177 BC, The Survival of Civilizations Following the collapse, Egypt, despite surviving, merely coped and retreated from the international stage, entering the chaotic Third Intermediate Period. The resulting power vacuum allowed the emergence of smaller kingdoms like Israel, Judah, and Moab. Archaeology uses Old Testament texts as guideposts for the First Millennium BC. The Philistines are identified as the Sea Peoples group called the Peleset, evidenced by DNA extracted from Ashkelon burials.

    This is a Grave Talks CLASSIC EPISODE! Most haunted houses keep their secrets hidden in the shadows — but not this one.  CJ Reinhard lived in a historic Bethlehem, Pennsylvania home for a decade. For eight years, life there seemed perfectly normal. Then, almost overnight, the activity began… and it didn't stop for daylight, company, or reason. What started as small, almost dismissible events turned into chilling, full-blown apparitions and shifting shadows that made themselves known no matter who was watching. Guests saw them. CJ and his fiancée saw them. The house itself seemed alive with a presence that refused to stay quiet. Was it tied to the land's storied past, to an antique mirror, or to the couple's soon-to-arrive child? Could it have been something darker drawn to the home's history in Bethlehem?

    What happens when Corndog takes a week off and his digital twin takes over? You get AI Corndog — a surprisingly sarcastic, eerily accurate clone that somehow knows every surviving General Lee by VIN number and still manages to roast Bernie mid-sentence. In this week's episode, Rob and Bernie navigate a wild mix of technology, nostalgia, and good ol' car talk as they lock in SEMA 2025 plans, revisit a few listener voicemails that should've stayed buried, and share behind-the-scenes updates on Dallas's race prep for Las Vegas. But the real horsepower hits in the back half of the show with a Patreon-exclusive deep dive into the surviving screen-used General Lees, guided by the encyclopedic mind of Corndog himself. Then, for dessert, the guys crack open a vintage interview with John Schneider — a fan-favorite throwback where Bo Duke talks about filming the final jumps, correcting paint mistakes on the reunion cars, and the hidden realities of life on set. It's equal parts hilarious, heartfelt, and totally “Hazzard.” The post K&F Show #342: Rise of AI Corndog!

    Faith, Family, and Building an Unshakable Legacy What's the secret to building a family, a business, and a life that actually lasts? In this powerful conversation, I sit down with Willie and Korie Robertson—founders of the Duck Dynasty legacy and one of the most faith-driven families in America—to talk about what it really takes to stay grounded in success, marriage, and purpose. You've seen the fame, the show, and the empire, but today you're going to hear the heart behind it all—the values, struggles, and faith that have held it together. Willie and Korie open up about what it's like to build a business as a family and why their faith has always been the cornerstone of everything they do. We get real about what it means to raise kids with character in a culture that's lost its way, and why success without strong values will never be sustainable. They share how fame tested their foundation, how they stayed united through challenges, and why keeping God at the center of every decision changed everything. We also talk about marriage—the hard parts, not just the highlight reel. Willie and Korie reveal how they've navigated seasons of conflict, learned to communicate through differences, and kept their relationship alive in the middle of raising a big family and running multiple businesses. There's real wisdom here on what it takes to build a marriage that's unshakable, not because it's perfect, but because it's rooted in grace and growth. This conversation isn't just about Duck Dynasty—it's about what it means to lead with conviction, love deeply, and leave a legacy that outlives you. Whether you're building a business, leading a family, or trying to figure out your next chapter, this episode is a masterclass on faith, vision, and perseverance. The Robertsons remind us that you can have both success and peace if you're willing to build on the right foundation. Key Takeaways: Why faith is the cornerstone of the Robertson family's success How to stay grounded when fame and pressure hit The keys to building a marriage that lasts through every season What it takes to raise strong, values-driven kids in today's world How to build a business and a legacy that honor God and serve others If you've ever wondered how to build something that truly matters—something that lasts beyond the spotlight—this conversation will show you the way. — Max Out Also don't miss out on MAXOUT2026: Once a year, I open my home for an intimate one-day experience unlike anything else I do.
