In this episode of The Other Side of Midnight, host Walter Sterling celebrates his birthday by tackling some of the most surreal topics on the airwaves. UK Tartaria expert Guy Anderson joins the show to break down the conspiracy of a lost global civilization, hidden free energy, orchestrated city fires, and how Nikola Tesla connects to the orphan trains of the Industrial Revolution. Plus, we cover a terrifying Lake Tahoe otter attack, a ridiculous Starbucks latte rumor, why open offices are an introvert's personal hell, and why buying diamonds next to Costco's rotisserie chickens is the ultimate proof of American superiority.
Evan Huck, CEO and co-founder of UserEvidence, opens up about the hard decision to shift from a tried-and-true outbound sales playbook to a long-term brand-building strategy. After eight straight quarters of flat pipeline growth, Evan had to trust the process, convince his board to stay the course, and rethink how UserEvidence reached its ideal customers. In this conversation, he shares what it takes to stay patient when results don't come fast, how to balance short-term pipeline needs with brand investments, and why the payoff was worth the wait. Evan also shares: - Why eight quarters of flat pipeline tested their commitment to brand over quick wins - How UserEvidence narrowed its ICP to unlock stronger growth - Why creative, one-to-one outreach can still break through with enterprise buyers - How Slack communities helped build credibility and generate early enterprise demand - Why product marketing came before demand generation in building the GTM engine - How customer advocacy became an increasingly powerful source of growth Chapters: 00:00 Introduction to Evan Huck and UserEvidence 04:31 From SDR to CEO: Evan's GTM Journey 07:54 Why UserEvidence Bet on Brand 09:31 Eight Quarters of Crickets: Waiting for Brand to Pay Off 12:30 Narrowing the ICP to Unlock Growth 13:51 The CEO Hustle Behind Enterprise Growth 16:00 Building Credibility Through Communities 18:00 Why the Right Team Matters 19:14 Why Product Marketing Came First 20:39 Turning Customers Into a Growth Engine 22:07 The "Chill, Humble" Leadership Philosophy 22:43 Evan's Favorite Book for Founders Try UserEvidence: userevidence.com
Vanessa Wulff was working toward a future in chiropractic care when she became the victim of multiple sexual assaults and rape. In this episode, she shares what happened during that period of her life and the effects those experiences had on her education, her sense of safety, and her ability to move forward. Vanessa's story reflects a reality that is often poorly understood: trauma does not always produce a clear, predictable, or easily explained response. Survivors may continue attending school, going to work, interacting with others, or trying to maintain the appearance of an ordinary life while privately carrying fear, confusion, shame, and the lasting effects of what was done to them. This conversation is also an important reminder that repeated victimization never makes a survivor responsible for the crimes committed against them. Each assault results from an offender's decision to violate another person's autonomy and consent. The responsibility belongs to the perpetrator, every time. By sharing her story, Vanessa gives listeners an honest look at the effects of multiple sexual assaults and the strength required not only to survive them, but to find the language and courage to speak about them.

Labor Pains: Dealing with infertility and loss during pregnancy or infancy.
Sometimes grief begins long before someone dies. It begins when the person you love is still beside you, but the life you knew together is already changing.In this episode, Teresa Reiniger sits down with Suzy McNamara for an honest conversation about caregiving, anticipatory grief, identity, faith, and carrying more than one devastating loss at once.Suzy spent five years as the primary in-home caregiver for her husband, Bob, after he was diagnosed with posterior cortical atrophy, a rare form of early-onset Alzheimer's. She shares what it was like watching changes begin in his early 50s, protecting his dignity as his world became smaller, and slowly realizing that she was no longer only his wife, she had become his caregiver, advocate, and protector.Then, while Bob was entering the final stage of his illness, Suzy's sister and best friend, Elizabeth, died. Suzy reflects on what happens when there is barely room to grieve because someone still depends on you.This conversation offers validation for caregivers who feel unseen, people experiencing anticipatory grief, and anyone carrying layered losses.About our guest: Suzy McNamara is a widow, mother of four adult children, former primary caregiver to her husband Bob, and author of The Silkworm, the Magician, and the Sister Tree: A Tale of Love and Loss.In This Episode● How early-onset Alzheimer's changed Bob's identity, career, relationships, and independence.● Why grief can begin while the person you love is still physically present.● How Suzy's identity shifted from wife to caregiver, advocate, and protector.● Protecting a loved one's dignity when others do not understand their limitations.● Grieving Suzy's sister Elizabeth while continuing full-time caregiving.● How faith, writing, friendship, and a smaller support circle helped Suzy keep going.What You'll Take Away● Anticipatory grief is real grief.● Caregivers can lose parts of their identity, too.● Protecting someone may require disappointing other people.● Surviving one difficult day deserves recognition.● You do not need a large circle—you need people who can truly stay.MEMORABLE QUOTESSuzy: “There are so many little tragedies in the big tragedy of Alzheimer's.”Suzy: “That's when the grieving really begins.”Suzy: “The caregiver loses their identity for sure.”Suzy: “You do have to build sort of a wall around your heart.”Suzy: “Getting through one day is a huge, huge accomplishment.”Teresa: “Grief does not always wait for one loss to end before another one begins.”EPISODE CHAPTERS00:00 — When Grief Begins Before Death03:33 — Bob's Early-Onset Alzheimer's Story08:26 — The Fear and Shame Before Diagnosis13:28 — When Alzheimer's Arrives in Midlife18:00 — Losing the Identity of Wife and Becoming Caregiver19:48 — Protecting Bob's Dignity and Safety24:59 — Grieving a Sister While Caring for a Husband28:16 — When Caregiving Leaves No Room to Grieve29:26 — The Story Behind Suzy's Memoir33:30 — Finding the People Who Can Truly Stay35:48 — Getting Through One Day Is an Accomplishment39:32 — Suzy's Book and Audiobook42:19 — A Reminder for Caregivers Who Feel Unseen

Sonny Mayo has spent decades living the life most musicians only dream about. A veteran guitarist and longtime fixture in the heavy music world, Sonny has performed and recorded with bands including Snot, Sevendust, Hed PE, Amen, and the Exies, building a career around loud music, relentless touring, and life on the road. But these days, Sonny's life looks very different. After recently suffering a massive heart attack and undergoing bypass surgery, Sonny found himself facing something no tour, album, or guitar could prepare him for: his own mortality. And as he fought his way through surgery and recovery, something strange started happening. His caregivers had names like Enoch, Michael, Angel and Gabriel, and his head surgeon was wearing a shirt featuring a burning heart. Coincidence? Or was something bigger happening? In this wide-ranging conversation, Sonny and Shane go far beyond the heart attack. They talk about God, Jesus, spirituality vs. organized religion, sobriety, mortality, and what happens when life forces you to reevaluate everything you thought mattered. They also go down some very different roads: COVID, the Palisades fires, leaving California, the changing culture of America, retiring from music, and Sonny's new life in Arizona building a real estate business with his wife. After decades in music, Sonny has officially stepped away from the stage, but not from the conversation. This is a story about surviving, starting over, questioning everything, and realizing that maybe the greatest performance of your life begins after the applause stops.

September can feel a little like a second January. A fresh start, a new school year, and a chance to look at where you are and where you want to go. In this episode, I'm talking about how to revisit your vision for the year, get clear on what still matters to you, and make the most of the next few months. I'm also sharing something I've been learning about the middle, that long stretch after the excitement of starting has worn off but before you've reached the finish line. If your motivation has faded or you've stalled on something that once felt exciting, it doesn't necessarily mean you're on the wrong track. You might just be in the middle. Wherever you are right now, you're not behind. There is still plenty of time to make meaningful progress, have new experiences, and intentionally shape the rest of your year. Plus, I'm sharing details about our upcoming live 12-week walk-through of the Surviving to Thriving Toolkit, where we'll work together on creating systems and rhythms that support you and your family.
Anika sat down with Holland Martini and Maria Vorovich to explore how Good Ques transformed the traditionally rigid world of market research by embracing creativity, humor, and psychological safety. The conversation revealed a counterintuitive truth: to get to real human insights, you cannot ask robotic questions; you have to shift the perspective and design an experience that makes people comfortable telling the absolute truth. Holland and Maria's unique journey—from working side by side at Grey in New York and navigating the unexpected hurdles of launching a business right before a global pandemic to earning recognition from Inc. Magazine and working with giants like P&G, PepsiCo, Adobe, TikTok, and Meta—offered a practical look at how two co-founders with contrasting working styles ("waffle brain" and "spaghetti brain") built an anti-research research company on mutual respect, clear communication, and purposeful creativity. In This Episode The Waffle and the Spaghetti: How balancing statistical rigor with big-picture creative strategy builds an indestructible co-founder partnership. The Spark in the Cream: Turning a New Year's Eve conversation about stale corporate jargon into a mission to reinvent consumer insights. Surviving the Pivot: How an early client backing out right before COVID unexpectedly forced them into the research boom. The TikTok Validation: Landing early major enterprise accounts by showing up with a genuinely different point of view. Rewiring the Factory: Why using AI to innovate the ultimate output rather than just speeding up the assembly line matters. The Power of Memes in Healthcare: How a viral internet joke helped a healthcare client accurately double their anticipated market size. The Empathy Deficit: Why modern brands get lost in best-practice perfection and forget to design human experiences for respondents. Co-Founder Dynamics: The importance of clear role separation, shared values, and leaving ego at the door. Timestamps 00:00 Intro: The anti-research research company 02:05 Waffle brain vs. spaghetti brain 03:54 The origin story at Grey 06:20 Taking off corporate guardrails 09:30 Carving a distinct agency path 11:42 Good Ques: Asking better questions 13:35 The 2020 pandemic pivot and TikTok 15:58 AI integration and industry innovation 20:53 Pitching enterprise clients 23:55 Creative research tweaks 25:10 The condom meme case study 29:26 Comfort with creative boundaries 31:32 Co-founder rules and motherhood 37:35 Remote culture and global teams 43:07 The respondent experience 46:26 What's next for Good Ques 47:24 Advice for new founders 49:32 Favorite quotes and business mantras Key Insights & Takeaways Insight 1: Invisibility Isn't a Content Problem—It's a Strategy Problem Traditional market research is bogged down by rigid, robotic phrasing that invites equally robotic, surface-level responses. When researchers focus entirely on extraction rather than the respondent's experience, they miss the underlying truth. Asking better questions requires designing an environment of psychological safety where people feel comfortable revealing their real behaviors. Insight 2: Creativity Belongs in Methodology, Not Just Execution Many corporate brands assume creativity only applies to advertising copy or visual design. True innovation happens when creativity is applied to the research methodology itself—using tools like creative drawing, changing the frame of reference to bypass social desirability bias, or even incorporating internet culture like memes to capture authentic consumer sentiment. Insight 3: AI Should Innovate the Output, Not Just the Assembly Line While many companies use generative AI simply to streamline traditional processes and speed up data collection, true market leaders use it to reimagine the final product. Technology should be leveraged to push beyond industry averages and discover entirely new frontiers of understanding rather than just producing faster mediocrity. Insight 4: Counterbalance Is the Anchor of a Strong Co-Founder Partnership A successful co-founder relationship relies on having complementary skill sets rather than duplicate visions. Pairing a structured, analytical mindset with a fluid, big-picture creative approach creates a resilient leadership team, provided there is absolute clarity in roles, deep mutual respect, and zero ego. Insight 5: Embrace Discomfort as a Metric for Growth Building a disruptive company requires a constant willingness to step outside the boundaries of convention. Whether it is pitching unconventional methodologies to skeptical executives, riding a bicycle across a bridge in freezing weather during a crisis, or pivoting business models overnight, treating discomfort as a sign of progress is essential for long-term survival.

Podcast With Sheila - (Sharing Uplifting & Impactful Real Life Stories)
PODCAST with SHEILA is back with a powerful live interview exploring coercive control, legal abuse, and high-conflict divorce through real-life experience.In this episode, I speak with Lisa Johnson, co-founder of Been There Got Out, a high-conflict divorce strategist and certified domestic violence advocate. After spending over $100,000 on her divorce, Lisa made the courageous decision to represent herself in family court. Her case was later published in the Connecticut Law Journal and is now used as legal precedent — an extraordinary outcome for a self-represented litigant.Lisa's live testimony also helped pass Jennifer's Law, expanding the legal definition of domestic violence to include coercive control. In this honest and educational conversation, we discuss how abuse can continue after separation, particularly through the legal system, and how individuals can protect themselves while navigating high-conflict custody and co-parenting situations.

People across Chicago are working multiple jobs just to afford basic necessities, while neighborhood small businesses are being priced out by skyrocketing licensing fees, software taxes, and crushing property taxes. In this episode of Eyes Wide Open, host Nick Thompson sits down with Laura Yepez, longtime Wicker Park Inn owner and candidate for Chicago's 1st Ward Alderwoman. costs.

I discovered Ari Ehrlich through his viral Substack about a friend trip to Nantucket that went completely sideways: the cold shoulder, no explanation, a girl world nightmare, and I had so many questions. We get into what it was actually like growing up with the children of Manhattan's elite, his other salacious Substack stories where he's reporting on who's banging who and how he's managed to keep his friends despite writing about all of their drama. Ari is one of the funniest and most astute observers of social dynamics I've talked to. Remember his name!

Then, Cleveland Guardians TV analyst (25:35) and former MLB catcher Chris Gimenez joins to discuss why things have started going the team's way as they hold the final AL Wild Card spot, José Ramírez's dangerous ability to hit towards all areas of the field, Gavin Williams' success on the mound, and Steven Kwan's turnaround this year.

In a time of mass ecological collapse, the ecological concept of refugia offers a lifeline of hope and gives meaning to even small-scale effort. First coined in the mid-19th century by naturalist Edward Forbes, it describes how entire landscapes can recover from surviving pockets of habitats and their creatures. In this episode we talk with Debra Rienstra, author of Refugia Faith: Seeking hidden shelters, ordinary wonders and the healing of the Earth about how we can become people of refugia, finding and nurturing places of safety and health for biodiversity, human culture and faith. Debra is professor of English at Calvin University, where she has taught since 1996, specializing in creative nonfiction, early British literature, and environmental literature. She and her husband have three grown children. She lives in Michigan in the Grand River watershed. Find out more at https://debrarienstra.com/

Biopharma's Strategic Race Against the Looming Patent Cliff
What happens when life changes so dramatically that “getting back to normal” is no longer the goal?In this episode of The Many Faces of Cancer, Melissa sits down with healthcare professional, entrepreneur, advocate, speaker and cancer survivor Sarita Parikh, whose life changed dramatically after a devastating accident left her with a traumatic brain injury—only to be followed months later by a breast cancer diagnosis.Sarita shares the extraordinary story of navigating brain injury rehabilitation and cancer at the same time, including the cognitive and physical challenges that made even routine appointments difficult. She also talks about the unexpected way cancer forced her to confront something she hadn't yet had the capacity to process: just how much her life had changed.Their conversation moves beyond diagnosis and treatment into the much bigger question of what recovery is actually for.Sarita shares the philosophy behind her evolving work with Mind, Body, and Play Therapies and her concept of “life-first care”—an approach that asks not simply how we help someone recover, but how we help them build the capacity to participate in a meaningful life.Melissa and Sarita also explore the importance of play, joy, awe, rest and connection—and why making room for those things doesn't mean ignoring the grief, anger and loss that can accompany cancer and trauma.Sarita also shares how attending Epic Experience camp finally allowed her to recognize that she wasn't an “imposter” in the cancer community and begin processing her diagnosis. Even more unexpectedly, the experience of play, nature and connection seemed to help her rediscover something she had struggled to do since her brain injury: simply take a deep breath.This is a conversation about accepting that life may never look exactly as it once did—and discovering that a different life can still be meaningful, joyful and very much worth living.In this episode:Surviving a traumatic brain injury and cancer in the same yearNavigating cancer treatment with significant cognitive limitationsThe grief of losing the life you expectedWhy recovery shouldn't only be about “getting better”Sarita's concept of life-first careBuilding capacity while also honoring the need for restWhy adults need play just as much as children doMaking room for grief, rage, joy and awe at the same timeFeeling like an imposter in the cancer communityThe unexpected impact of Epic ExperienceFinding your people—and allowing others to help carry the loadSarita's message: Feel it all.

MouseChat.net – Disney, Universal, Orlando FL News & Reviews
Lisa, Debbie "Sharpie," and Steve sit down with Steven, a Doctor of Physical Therapy in Orlando and host of the Happily Ever Active podcast, to talk about how to actually get your body ready for a Disney World vacation — before you ever set foot in the parks. Steven breaks down how most people walk only 4,000–5,000 steps a day but need to handle 20,000+ at Disney, and why that sudden jump (not the walking itself) is what causes sore feet, back pain, and injuries like plantar fasciitis and shin splints. He shares his progressive walking plan to build up mileage in the 1–3 months before your trip, the real rules for buying park-ready shoes (heel cup, toe box, breaking them in at the end of the day), how to prevent and treat the dreaded "Disney rash," chafing fixes for hot, humid park days, and the right way to wear a backpack so it doesn't wreck your shoulders and back by 3pm. The crew also digs into packing smart for a day in the parks, hidden bench and ledge spots for a quick sit-down break in line, stretches you can do in the queue for Rise of the Resistance, and how to pace a multi-generational family trip so grandma, grandpa, and the kids all actually enjoy the day instead of melting down during "Mickey's Magical Meltdown" hour.

Moses words to the Children of Israel then, are very timely for us today. He reminds them of God's faithfulness and urges them to remember all that God has done for them. To guard against pride, remain humble and continue to be grateful, recognizing that it is God that brought them out of slavery and made them His chosen people. He deserves the glory for all He has done for His people then and for all He does for us today. By Dave Bartlett
Surviving a difficult season is one thing. Learning to flourish again is another. In Part 2 of Jodie Chiricosta's conversation with Crystal Sarmiento, Crystal shares how her growing faith was tested through a controlling and abusive marriage—and how she sought God through thirteen difficult years, wrestling with when to keep believing for change and when it was time to let go. But hardship wasn't the end of her story. As Crystal continued to follow God, she experienced freedom, healing, and restoration in ways she never expected. God restored her confidence and identity, brought a loving husband into her life, and opened surprising doors in business, leadership, public service, and ministry. What had once been a life focused on surviving began to flourish—and eventually became a testimony that would help other women discover who God created them to be. Listen and discover how to:Hold onto your faith when circumstances don't change as you hoped.Seek God's wisdom when facing painful and difficult decisions.Move beyond survival and allow God to heal and restore broken places.Rebuild your identity after fear, control, and painful experiences.Recognize healthy love that encourages you to flourish rather than diminish.Trust God with unexpected opportunities and new seasons.Allow your restored places to become a source of strength and encouragement to others. If you've wondered whether life can be good again after years of disappointment or pain, Crystal's story offers a powerful reminder: broken seasons do not have to become permanent identities. As we surrender our lives to God and follow His leading, He can restore what has been damaged, renew our hope, and lead us forward into a life of greater freedom, purpose, and flourishing.
Content warning At 16, Matt Caruana attempted to take his own life. He survived, acquiring a complete spinal cord injury and becoming a wheelchair user.While recovering in hospital, Matt was consumed by the same belief that had followed him for years: that he was worthless. Then, during a train ride with his mum, a complete stranger asked him a confronting question:“What are you going to do about it now?”That moment did not instantly remove Matt's depression, but it changed the direction of his life. Instead of asking “Why me?”, he began asking “What now?”In this deeply honest conversation with Angus O'Loughlin, Matt shares the reality of surviving a suicide attempt, adjusting to life with a spinal cord injury and slowly rebuilding his identity. He explains why meaningful connection matters, what parents can do when a young person is struggling and how opening up helped transform his relationships with his family and friends.Matt also discusses finding purpose through sharing his story, breaking a Guinness World Record and becoming a competitive para climber. For Matt, strength is no longer about appearance or external validation. It is about contributing to other people and making hope visible.This episode explores suicide prevention, men's mental health, disability, resilience, spinal cord injury, wheelchair life, para climbing and the power of choosing to move forward one day at a time.Matt's experience of attempting suicide at 16Acquiring a complete spinal cord injury and becoming a wheelchair userThe belief that he was worthless and why he rejected supportThe stranger whose confronting question changed his directionWhy being present is essential when supporting someoneMatt's advice for parents of young people experiencing mental health challengesUsing a traffic-light system to begin difficult conversationsHow vulnerability strengthened Matt's relationshipsRebuilding independence following a spinal cord injuryFinding meaning by contributing to other peopleBreaking a Guinness World Record to “make hope visible”Discovering competitive para climbingWhy Matt hopes to compete at the Brisbane 2032 Paralympic GamesHow Matt defines his worth todayThis episode contains detailed discussion of suicide, suicidal thoughts and mental ill-health.

Send us Fan MailWelcome back to The Beyond Condition Podcast! I'm your host, Sarah Parker, and today I'm joined by my good friend, Matt Holdcroft.What happens when the battle with food becomes stronger than the desire to change?In this powerful and deeply honest episode, Matt shares his extraordinary journey from weighing nearly 400lbs to stepping onto a bodybuilding stage - a transformation sparked by a near-fatal illness, an induced coma and a surgeon's blunt warning that he had just 10 years to live.Matt opens up about his history with food addiction, emotional eating, secret bingeing and the psychological cycle of depression and overeating, explaining why food addiction can be so difficult to overcome when food is an unavoidable part of everyday life.His journey wasn't without major obstacles. During his first bodybuilding prep, Matt required emergency bowel surgery just seven weeks before his competition. The physical and psychological challenges of losing a huge amount of weight - and then navigating life after the show - reveal why transformation doesn't end when you step on stage.The conversation also explores one of the most important and often neglected parts of competitive bodybuilding: the post-show and rebound phase. For someone with a history of food addiction, the period after competition can be particularly dangerous. We discuss why post-show coaching should continue, why communication with your coach is essential when things go off-plan, and why the day of the competition is actually only the halfway point.In this episode, we explore:• Matt's transformation from nearly 400lbs to competitive bodybuilder • Surviving a near-fatal illness and being placed on ECMO • The surgeon's warning that changed everything • Food addiction and emotional eating • Binge eating, secret eating and decision fatigue • The psychological cycle of depression and overeating • Can fitness addiction replace food addiction? • The physical and psychological reality of bodybuilding prep • Emergency surgery during competition preparation • Loose skin removal and rebuilding after major weight loss • Post-show rebound and the risks of food addiction returning • Why post-show coaching is just as important as competition prep • Why coaches need to be honest about whether a client is ready to compete • Why first-time competitors shouldn't rush into high-level shows • The importance of communication between athlete and coach • When therapy may be needed alongside bodybuilding coachingYour transformation doesn't end when you reach the stage.For many athletes, the real test begins when the structure of prep disappears.This is an honest conversation about weight loss, food addiction, bodybuilding, mental resilience, coaching and what it really takes to create lasting change.Find Matt on Instagram @matt_holdcroft @quarterturnnutritionWatch the episode here: https://youtu.be/ARohf9jQ3RIFind Sarah on Instagram: @sarahparker_bbTHE ULTIMATE SHOW DAY GUIDE E-BOOK: Purchase hereBeyond Condition Coaching Application: Click here

#1055 What if an idea inspired by a college “emotional support hamster” could eventually land your product on shelves in more than 2,000 stores across the country? In Part 1 of this two-part episode, host Brogan Williams sits down with Ethan Haber, founder and CEO of Happy Habitats, to unpack how he turned a simple question — “Why can't you walk your hamster?” — into a growing small-pet products company now carried by major retailers like Petco. Ethan shares how he validated his idea, navigated years of manufacturing setbacks, and kept going through COVID delays and an eight-month shipping nightmare before finally reaching profitability in 2026. He also breaks down what it takes to launch a physical product, why trade shows and honest customer feedback are so valuable, and how years of persistence, cold outreach, and relationship-building helped Happy Habitats expand into more than 2,000 retail doors across the country! What we discuss with Ethan: + From college idea to Petco + Reinventing the hamster ball + Validating a product idea + Manufacturing a physical product + Surviving major production delays + Breaking into retail stores + Trade shows and buyer relationships + Testing products with strangers + Cold outreach and persistence + Reaching 2,000+ retail doors Thank you, Ethan!

Aries Spears and Andy Steinberg are back for another unfiltered episode of Spears & Steinberg. This week: a Cactus Corn popcorn taste test kicks things off before the guys dive into the Lindsay Clancy postpartum psychosis case, the protests and who's really to blame, the WNBA dildo-throwing controversy and the trans athletes in women's sports debate, LA's homeless crisis (including a proposed city-funded "relief" program), a Batman vs. Superman business breakdown, Marvel vs. DC villains, and a raw conversation about race in America sparked by some viral clips. Aries also tells the story of getting passed over for SNL in '98 — and what Darrell Hammond later told him about it.
Stijn Schmitz welcomes Willem Middelkoop to the show. Willem Middelkoop is an author and is the Founder of the Commodity Discovery Fund. Middelkoop asserts that the “big reset” of the global financial system, a thesis he developed over a decade ago, is now unfolding in real time. He points to the accelerating decline of U.S. hegemony, evidenced by the collapsing petrodollar system and waning international support, particularly in the Middle East. This shift from an era of cooperation to confrontation is driving a fundamental change in capital flows, with generalist investors beginning to move away from paper assets like U.S. Treasuries toward hard assets. He notes that foreign ownership of U.S. debt has fallen below thirty percent, a situation he describes as “Weimar Lite,” where the Federal Reserve is increasingly forced to monetize government debt. This environment explains the strong performance of gold, which is being reintroduced into the monetary system without official decree, primarily through record central bank purchases. China alone is buying sixty percent of the world's annual mine production outside its borders. While Middelkoop does not foresee a hyperinflationary collapse, as the U.S. retains powerful tools like revaluing its gold holdings, he believes a new financial crisis is likely in the coming years. In such a crisis, he expects central banks to play the “gold card,” driving a significant revaluation. This outlook informs his investment strategy, which focuses on hard assets including real estate, physical gold and silver, Bitcoin, and high-quality equities. Shifting to the mining sector, Middelkoop highlights the exceptional opportunity in gold producers, which are generating record free cash flow yet trade at historically low valuations. His fund, however, specializes in discovery investing, concentrating on a select portfolio of world-class tier-one and tier-two discoveries. He emphasizes that the key to outsized returns is maintaining a long-term position in a major discovery, allowing value to compound over decades as the deposit is developed into a producing mine. This patient, concentrated approach involves taking significant stakes in companies after the initial discovery hype and supporting them through to production.

He became a well-known personality through his work as a stock market commentator for the Dutch business television channel RTLZ. Middelkoop predicted the credit crisis’s onset in his book “Als de dollar valt” (If the dollar falls) in 2007. Subsequent publications were “De permanente oliecrisis” (The permanent oil crisis) – 2008, “Overleef de kredietcrisis” (Surviving the credit crisis) – 2009, “Goud en het geheim van geld” (Gold and the secret of money) – 2012, and The Big Reset – 2013. In total, he sold more than 100,000 copies of his books. The Commodity Discovery Fund was established in the summer of 2008. It started with three million euros and 22 participants. By the end of 2023, it had grown to about 2,000 participants and €104 million in assets under management.
On this week’s show, we’re talking to a good friend of ours who tells us about surviving a bear attack. Cory Loeffler now lives in Alaska, and we’re fortunate he lived to tell this story on the air.

What happens when technology stops merely serving humanity—and starts trying to redefine what it means to be human?Pastor George Sayour is joined by author C.R. Wiley to discuss his book Man Made: A Guide to Surviving the AI Apocalypse and the Christian response to artificial intelligence and transhumanism.They explore the connections between AI, the transhumanist dream, Francis Bacon, human “hacking,” consciousness, golems, robots, and humanity's ancient temptation to overcome the limits God has placed upon us.Wiley argues that Christians don't need to fear every use of artificial intelligence. But as technology becomes increasingly powerful, Christians must remain rooted in the real, embodied, analog world God created—and resist the temptation to remake humanity in man's own image. https://canonpress.com/products/manma...
What happens when a routine childhood cold turns your sweet eight-year-old into a full-blown horror movie scene overnight? Sickboy royalty Jessica Slice returns to the show for an intimate, terrifying, and wildly eye-opening conversation about the nightmare her family lived through when her daughter suddenly stopped walking, lost her speech, and entered a state of extreme, violent psychosis.When ER doctors brushed off her daughter's sudden motor tics with a casual "kids are weird" and offered to throw an eight-year-old into an adult psych ward alongside an adult roommate, Jessica refused to take broken systems for an answer. Enter PANS (Pediatric Acute-onset Neuropsychiatric Syndrome) - a controversial, deeply misunderstood condition where a basic infection triggers an immune response that crosses the blood-brain barrier and sets off neuroinflammation in the brain.From mysterious motor spasms to stealth trips across the border for IVIG treatment, Jessica gives us a raw, unfiltered look at relentless maternal advocacy, medical gaslighting, and the fight to save her daughter's mind.For physician-vetted resources on PANS/PANDAS or to follow Jessica's writing and advocacy work, check out the links below:https://www.pandasppn.org/https://jessicaslice.comFollow Sickboy: YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@SickboyPodInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/sickboypodcastTiktok: https://www.tiktok.com/@sickboypodcastDiscord: https://discord.gg/expeUDN
This month, on Laura Flanders & Friends, we turn to the state of journalism—at a moment of deep disruption, consolidation, and consequence. But journalists aren't simply standing by—they're pushing back, reimagining their work, and, in many cases, taking matters into their own hands. This week we'll hear from the long-running independent collective Third World Newsreel, still thriving in an era some are calling “media carnage,” showing what it looks like to endure—and to resist. This show is made possible by you! To become a sustaining member go to LauraFlanders.org/donate Description: It's almost unheard of for an independent media collective to survive as long as Third World Newsreel has. Since 1968, they have chronicled some of the most pivotal movements in human history and continue to expand on their collection of over 700 titles. There's lots to learn about how they've adapted through technological revolutions, political persecutions, philanthropic booms and busts — and how the oldest media arts collective in the U.S. is making do in today's “media carnage”, as Laura Flanders puts it. Joining us are JT Takagi, an independent filmmaker, sound recordist, and the longtime executive director of Third World Newsreel. Tami Gold is an artist and activist whose documentaries grapple with everything from imperialism to sex work. Her films include My Country Occupied, Another Brother and Land Rain Fire among many more. Puerto Rican-born Juan Carlos Dávila works in film as well as TV, where he reports on social movements around environmentalism, militarism and the struggles of the working class on the island. His films include The Stand-By Generation, Viequez: An Endless Battle and Drills of Liberation. Join us as we look at the past, present and future of Third World Newsreel and ask how film can be used as a tool for organizing. “I'd say we feel more urgent now than ever before. Every day there's something happening that makes it clear that our rights and liberties, and people's lives all over the world are at stake. Not being in touch with the history and media that shows the truth of what's going on is really decimating people's ability to, as Juan said, know what to follow and what to do.” - JT Takagi “We need to retake the theater, the physical space that is being ignored by the corporations. Perhaps now that is the opportunity that we have . . . A theater is being rented by people who are organizers, and they're using their collective spirit and know-how to organize huge, huge crowds to come.” - Tami Gold “People can shoot stuff with the phone . . . I see a lot in Puerto Rico that people are still wanting to produce with the corporate industry standards. Many young filmmakers like myself tend to think that we need so many personnel to be doing films. Right now we can actually make films with less.” - Juan Carlos Dávila Guests: • Juan Carlos Dávila: Documentary Filmmaker, Multimedia Journalist, Puerto Rico Correspondent, Democracy Now! • Tami Gold: Filmmaker, Artist, Activist • JT Takagi: Executive Director, Third World Newsreel Watch on YouTube this episode that includes video clips referenced in this episode from Third World Newsreel; PBS World Channel 11:30am ET Sundays and on over 300 public stations across the country (check your listings, or search here via zipcode).

Sisters in Loss Podcast: Miscarriage, Pregnancy Loss, & Infertility Stories
Can you imagine getting pregnant while on birth control? For United States Naval Officer Jordan Johnson, this rare surprise became a reality when she beat the statistical odds and conceived while her IUD was still in place. What started as a journey of unexpected joy—complete with a cross-country military relocation and a beautiful baby shower—tragically shifted just two weeks later. At 29 weeks, Jordan rushed to the hospital only to learn her son no longer had a heartbeat.
What happens when technology stops merely serving humanity—and starts trying to redefine what it means to be human?Pastor George Sayour is joined by author C.R. Wiley to discuss his book Man Made: A Guide to Surviving the AI Apocalypse and the Christian response to artificial intelligence and transhumanism.They explore the connections between AI, the transhumanist dream, Francis Bacon, human “hacking,” consciousness, golems, robots, and humanity's ancient temptation to overcome the limits God has placed upon us.Wiley argues that Christians don't need to fear every use of artificial intelligence. But as technology becomes increasingly powerful, Christians must remain rooted in the real, embodied, analog world God created—and resist the temptation to remake humanity in man's own image. https://canonpress.com/products/manma...Watch all of our videos and subscribe to our channel for the latest content >HereHere

Willie's questions about the old Robertson property send Al deep into family history and uncover details about the family's earliest years that even Willie never fully knew. Jase, Al, and Zach look back on the Robertson family's famously argumentative style and why their fights, however heated, don't turn into lasting grudges. Jase and Zach also find themselves analyzing their own family backgrounds through a new men's group, while the conversation turns to why Christians can get distracted by theological arguments and miss the larger purpose of the Gospel.

Surviving 9/11: A Story of Providence, Courage & RemembranceIn this week's Team Never Quit Podcast, Marcus and Melanie meet with Daniel Geraghty, who shares his deeply personal and harrowing account of surviving the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001.Daniel was a newlywed, transitioning from military life into the corporate world, and working near the World Trade Center. On that September morning, he was preparing to make his way to Tower 2 for business. A seemingly insignificant series of delays—including an unexpected breakfast with his mother-in-law and spilled coffee on his shirt and tie—changed the course of his life. Those few extra minutes meant Daniel was not inside the South Tower when it was struck at 9:03 a.m.When Daniel emerged from the subway near the World Trade Center, he encountered chaos unlike anything he had ever experienced. Sirens filled the streets. Paper rained through lower Manhattan. Looking toward the Towers, Daniel witnessed the North Tower engulfed in fire and people desperately signaling from above.Then the second plane struck.Daniel recalls the tremendous fireball, the concussion, flying debris, and thousands of people running for their lives. Believing he might die, he still found himself unable to ignore a woman who had fallen in the stampede—until another stranger appeared, lifted her from the street, and carried her to safety. It is an image of humanity and courage that has remained with Daniel ever since.Daniel's story is more than an eyewitness account of one of America's darkest days. It is a powerful reflection on survival, providence, service, courage, and the weight of being given another day. For thousands, September 11 remains a story preserved only in remembrance. Daniel knows how close he came to becoming one of them—and why he remains profoundly grateful that his own story continued.In This Episode, You'll Hear: The seemingly ordinary delay Daniel believes saved his life. His transition from the Army into corporate life in New York City. What Daniel witnessed as he emerged from the subway near the World Trade Center. His firsthand account of the moments before and after the second plane struck. The internal struggle between his military instinct to run toward danger and the realization that he needed to get away. The unforgettable acts of courage and humanity Daniel witnessed in the streets. The emotional burden carried by those who survived. Daniel's reflections on gratitude, remembrance, and why September 11 must never be forgotten. This is an intense, moving conversation about a day that changed America forever—and one man's extraordinary experience of being just minutes away from a very different fate.Listen in as Daniel Geraghty takes Marcus and Melanie back to September 11, 2001, sharing what he saw, what he survived, and the moments that continue to live with him more than two decades later.Support Dan:- IG: https://www.instagram.com/dan_getready?igsi=c2R3MjlhN2p0OWg3- Order his book here —> https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09MJTCQKD?ref_=cm_sw_r_ffobk_cso_cp_mwn_dp_4245V5E8YA3SXW7RTZG4&bestFormat=trueSupport TNQ - IG: team_neverquit , marcusluttrell , melanieluttrell , huntero13 - https://www.patreon.com/teamneverquitSponsors: - Navyfederal.org - Dripdrop.com/TNQ- vinted.com/TNQ - davidprotein.com/TNQ- quo.com/TNQ - mengotomars.com [Team Never Quit] - bubsnaturals.com [Promo code TNQ] - mizzenandmain.com [Promo code: TNQ20] - masterclass.com/TNQ - ShopMando.com [Promo code: TNQ] - Tractorsupply.com/hometownheroes - meetfabiric.com/TNQ - Prizepicks (TNQ) - armslist.com/TNQ - PXGapparel.com/TNQ - bruntworkwear.com/TNQ - shipsticks.com/TNQ - stopboxusa.com {TNQ} - Tonal.com [TNQ] - greenlight.com/TNQ - drinkAG1.com/TNQ - Hims.com/TNQ
