In Alfred Hitchcock's 1953 film I Confess, a young priest in Quebec City is suspected of murder because of his unwillingness to break the seal of confession. A major theme of the film is the incomprehension with which the world sees the priesthood, such that people project their own sins onto the priest, resulting in a kind of white martyrdom.

At a recent rally at U.S. Steel in Pennsylvania, Donald Trump stood in front of a row of workers in hard hats and safety vests and proclaimed, “We're right now on the verge of passing the largest working class tax cuts in American history.” He framed his “Big Beautiful Bill” — a massive tax cut for the wealthy — as a blue-collar blessing. The sleight of hand is classic Trump, and what makes his appeal to voters enduring. “The Republican Party is building the multiracial working class coalition that the Democrats have always said that they want to build,” says David Sirota, founder of The Lever and a former Bernie Sanders speechwriter. This week on The Intercept Briefing, host Jordan Uhl speaks to Sirota and politics reporter Jessica Washington about how Trump has successfully used culture-war grievances to win over working-class voters, and why the Democratic Party continues to hemorrhage support.The episode also features Ilyse Hogue, the former president of NARAL Pro-Choice America and the co-creator of a new $20 million project called Speaking With American Men, or SAM. The initiative aims to understand — and win back — young male voters who've drifted to the right. “ A lot of what we heard from people is that they feel invisible to the Democratic coalition,” she says.

The new exorcism film The Ritual, starring Al Pacino and Dan Stevens, is based on the famous 1928 exorcism of Emma Schmidt, which also partially inspired The Exorcist. The Ritual is touted as more realistic and meticulously researched than most exorcism films, and it does seem to portray the rite of exorcism accurately (as the title indicates, most of the film is focused on the ritual itself). The film avoids many of the worst pitfalls of exorcism movies, such as fascination with the glamor of evil, sadism, etc. It is a Catholic-approvable treatment of the subject in that it avoids theological error, the liturgy is accurate, and God is clearly shown to be more powerful than demons. However, the film is still sensationalistic, not because its extraordinary demonic manifestations are fabricated, but because they are excessively centered at the expense of more interesting and edifying aspects of the real-life case. Those details which would have made the treatment unique and thought-provoking are too often filed down to fit the genre's cliches or to avoid alienating a non-Catholic audience. The Ritual will be in theaters starting June 6.

In this powerful follow-up to our discussion on big “T” trauma, we dive deeper into how all trauma—big and small—shapes the automatic behaviors that can strain your marriage. From lying to stonewalling, these “stances” stem from your adaptive child, a part of you formed in childhood. Through heartfelt stories and practical steps, we explore how to identify these patterns, heal your inner child, and choose wiser responses to reclaim your relationship. Join Robert and Sharla for an honest, hope-filled conversation about breaking free from the past.SummaryRelationships aren't just about communication or date nights—the real work is growing beyond your automatic reactions. In this episode, we unpack how childhood trauma creates your relational “stance,” an instinctive response like fighting, fleeing, or fixing that shows up when stress hits. We share the story of Dan, whose evasiveness nearly cost him his marriage, and Jessica, whose stonewalling left her husband feeling disconnected. Drawing on insights from therapists like Terry Real and Pia Mellody, we explain how the “adaptive child” forms and how to spot it in yourself. Most importantly, we offer a compassionate, practical path to pause, reflect, and choose responses that prioritize love over survival. If you missed Part 1, go back and listen to our discussion on big “T” trauma—it sets the stage for this episode!Key TakeawaysYour Stance is Your Adaptive Child: Your knee-jerk reactions in marriage—like lying, shutting down, or people-pleasing—are coping strategies from childhood trauma, big or small. They helped you survive then but can hurt your relationship now.Trauma Isn't Always Big: “Little t” traumas, like being told your emotions were too much or lacking emotional guidance, wire your nervous system and show up as automatic behaviors in adulthood.Spot the Signs: You're in your adaptive child when you get rigid, harsh, or lose empathy. In your wise mind, you're curious, flexible, and compassionate—qualities that strengthen your marriage.Heal with Compassion: Don't indulge or shame your inner child. Instead, have a loving conversation: forgive them, apologize for their pain, and commit to protecting your partner.Choose Wisely: Pause before reacting. Wait for your “second consciousness” to choose a response that puts your relationship first, like Dan's honest “I forgot” moment.It's a Daily Practice: Reclaiming your marriage means identifying your stance, pausing, and choosing love moment by moment. With practice, you can shift from “me” to “we.”Dive DeeperResources Mentioned:Us: Getting Past You and Me to Build a More Loving Relationship by Terry Real – The book featuring Dan and Julia's story, offering insights on relational healing.Pia Mellody's work on the “adaptive child” – Explore her books like Facing Codependence for a deeper understanding of how childhood shapes adult behaviors.Suggested Resources:The Body Keeps the Score by Bessel van der Kolk – A must-read for understanding how trauma affects the nervous system and relationships.Hold Me Tight by Dr. Sue Johnson – A practical guide to building emotional connection in your marriage.Journal Prompt: Reflect on your relational stance.

00:00 Introduction 12:44 Form 1:04:15 Themes 1:28:17 Moral problems 1:52:00 Favorite sequences After the artistic triumph of his magnum opus The Tree of Life, Terrence Malick had an unwontedly prolific period, releasing To the Wonder (2012), Knight of Cups (2015), and Song to Song (2017). In these films, known informally as the "Weightless Trilogy", Malick took his previous formal experimentation even further, relying heavily on improvisation stitched together with a stream-of-consciousness editing style evoking the fragments of memory. The results are undeniably aesthetically exciting, but also critically divisive, as many viewers find the latter two films particularly to lack narrative substance. The films have been of special interest to many Christians because of their explicit allusions to faith and their depiction of the emptiness of worldly pleasures as the characters search for something more. To the Wonder in particular is noteworthy for its priest character played by Javier Bardem, and because it deals with the issue of contraception and how being closed off to children destroys a relationship (the importance of children being a theme in all three films). Across the trilogy, Malick deals with the topic of sexuality in a way seen nowhere else in modern Hollywood, consistently showing the breakdown of sexuality in excess, deviance, and using others as destructive and even sinful. In that and in other respects, the films are profoundly countercultural. However, this is dangerous material to handle in any medium, cinema above all. Malick is not always successful in threading the needle with moral purity in execution, however praiseworthy his thematic intentions. This makes it impossible to recommend these films for a wide viewership, or to anyone without caveats. Nonetheless, a discussion of these films, with all their strengths and weaknesses, is essential in considering the direction of religious cinema today - and in this episode Thomas Mirus, James Majewski, and Nathan Douglas do just that.

(S4 Ep22) Cream - Disreali Gears (Reaction Records) Released November 2, 1967, Recorded May 11-15 (1967) Released in November 1967, Disraeli Gears marked a pivotal moment in Cream's evolution from a blues-based trio to psychedelic rock pioneers. Recorded in just three and a half days at Atlantic Studios in New York, the album blends surreal lyrics, experimental sounds, and distorted guitar tones into a cohesive and groundbreaking work. Produced by Felix Pappalardi (from Mountain), the record features standout tracks like “Sunshine of Your Love,” with its iconic bass riff, and “Tales of Brave Ulysses,” one of the first songs to feature a wah-wah pedal. The album was a commercial breakthrough, reaching No. 5 in the UK and No. 4 in the U.S., eventually selling over 6.8 million copies worldwide. Its vibrant, psychedelic cover art by Martin Sharp became as iconic as the music itself. Tracks like “Dance the Night Away” and “SWLABR” highlighted the band's willingness to experiment, while “Outside Woman Blues” and “Take It Back” maintained their blues roots. The synergy of Eric Clapton's innovative guitar work, Jack Bruce's powerful vocals and bass, and Ginger Baker's inventive drumming made Disraeli Gears a defining album of the era. Its legacy is a cornerstone of psychedelic rock and a testament to Cream's lasting impact on modern music.Signature Song "Strange Brew."

In this episode, Anna and Dr. Reddy explore how constant digital stimulation from smartphones, social media, and notifications can rewire the brain's reward system, leading to attention fragmentation, anxiety, poor sleep, and burnout. Through the relatable story of Michael, a creative professional overwhelmed by tech overload, they discuss the neuroscience of dopamine-driven behaviors and practical strategies to regain control. From digital audits and tech-free zones to mindful usage and the concept of dopamine fasting, this conversation offers science-backed tools to help listeners reset their focus, improve well-being, and build a healthier relationship with technology.
Why is it so hard to stop scrolling—even when we know it's making us feel worse? In this episode, we unpack the neuroscience behind that urge and reveal how social media is intentionally designed to hijack your brain's reward system. We explore how the constant flood of dopamine from notifications, likes, and endless content creates a cycle of burnout, addiction, and low motivation. If you've ever felt stuck in a loop of quick fixes that leave you drained instead of fulfilled, this conversation is for you.But this isn't just about what's wrong—it's about what you can do to take your mind back. We're talking real stories, science-backed insights, and practical tools you can start using today—from morning routines that prime your mind for focus, to the underestimated power of meditation and meaningful effort. What if the real reward isn't in the goal, but in the meaningful effort it takes to get there? And what if that effort is exactly what your mind and body are craving? This isn't about quitting tech altogether—it's about creating a healthier, more conscious relationship with it. Tune in and find out how to break the cycle and start building habits that truly support your growth and mental health.Chapters00:00 From Burnout to Balance: The Dopamine Reset Journey02:58 Understanding Dopamine: The Reward System06:00 The Impact of Technology on Dopamine Levels09:06 Morning Routines: Setting the Tone for the Day11:45 Meaningful Effort vs. Quick Fixes15:02 Social Media and the Dopamine Trap16:53 The Cost of Free Social Media19:22 Understanding Dopamine and Addiction22:39 Personal Experiences with Dopamine Reset28:35 Practical Steps for Change
Ever wonder why you snap or shut down with the person you love most? In this powerful episode, hosts Robert and Sharla Snow kick off a multi-part series exploring how trauma—big or small—shapes our closest relationships. Through the lens of brain science and a moving client story, they unpack how unhealed wounds from the past can “hijack” your marriage, driving conflict or disconnection. Using Dr. Dan Siegel's hand model of the brain, Terry Real's wise adult vs. triggered self framework, and Pia Mellody's concept of the adaptive child, they reveal why we “flip our lid” and how trauma fuels those moments. The episode centers on Ethan and Lilly, a couple whose 25-year marriage was transformed when Lilly faced her childhood trauma with courage. This is a story of healing, hope, and rediscovering the US in your relationship. Tune in to learn how to spot your own triggers and start bringing your wise adult self back to your marriage.Key Takeaways Trauma's Lasting Impact: Big “T” trauma (like abuse) or small “t” trauma (subtler wounds) can make it harder to stay emotionally regulated, causing you to “flip your lid” and react from a triggered, younger self rather than your wise adult self. Flipping Your Lid: When stress or conflict overwhelms your upstairs brain (prefrontal cortex), your downstairs brain (limbic system) takes over, shifting you from an *us* consciousness to a *me* vs. *you* mindset, disrupting connection with your partner. The Adaptive Child: As Pia Mellody explains, the adaptive child is a coping mechanism formed in childhood to protect you from pain. While lifesaving then, it can become maladaptive in adult relationships, as seen in Lilly's anger-driven reactions to Ethan. Healing Is Possible: By naming and addressing trauma (e.g., through techniques like Time Line Therapy and inner child work), you can shift from reactive patterns to relational, wise adult responses, as Ethan and Lilly did through vulnerability and mutual understanding. Ask the Key Question: Inspired by Terry Real, ask yourself, “Which version of me is showing up?” Recognizing when your triggered self is in charge is the first step to choosing connection over conflict. Coming Up: Next week, we'll explore small “t” trauma—quieter wounds that still shape how you love and fight—and share tips to spot your adaptive child and bring your wise self online.Dive Deeper: Resources Mentioned Want to explore the concepts and tools from this episode?

PRESS REVIEW – Wednesday, April 30: Papers worldwide are discussing the impact of Donald Trump's presidency as he marks 100 days in office. Also, Vietnam celebrates the 50th anniversary of the country's reunification with a military parade in Ho Chi Minh City. Next, activists in the UK are finding new ways of protesting fast fashion by mailing their used clothes to CEOs. Finally, a baby vulture is fed in an original way at a New York zoo. Trump's first 100 days in office feature on many front pages. The New Yorker has an illustration of a locked-up Lady Liberty counting the days left on her four-year sentence. The New York Times has a graphic opinion piece, which says that every day since the US president's inauguration has "felt like utter chaos". Time Magazine does a spin on the front page it published almost 10 years ago in August 2015, while the New York Post says this is just the beginning.European papers are also talking about Trump's first 100 days. Les Échos puts into words what many people have been feeling: "100 days which feel more like a thousand”. A sentiment echoed by Libération. The French paper calls Trump's second term an "enterprise of mass destruction" both in the United States and abroad. In Switzerland, Le Temps has a cartoon on its front page by cartoonist Chapatte, illustrating the "hundred days of noise and fury". The Guardian has an opinion piece saying that "the uniting theme of Trump's presidency is ineptitude". The Economist, for its part, just chooses to remind us of how long we still have left.The International papers are also discussing the impact that Trump has had on the world so far. The Saudi news site Arab News says the consequences are clear, noting that Trump has led an "unpredictable campaign that has upended parts of the rules-based world order". The Kenyan paper The Standard takes a similar line. It says that Trump has shattered the US's role on the world stage. In South America, the Argentinian paper Clarin is focusing on Trump's dwindling popularity, while in Hong Kong, the South China Morning Post looks at what it calls a "power grab by executive order".In other news, this Wednesday marks the 50th anniversary of the reunification of Vietnam. The Vietnamese daily Viet Nam News is covering the National Reunification celebration parades happening in Ho Chi Minh City. The anniversary is also celebrated in France by the Communist daily L'Humanité, which devotes a number of pages to what it calls "the epilogue of the US imperialist war". The Italian daily La Repubblica has an article looking at how Vietnam is still fighting the effects of the chemical Agent Orange. The article says that US efforts to help fight the consequences of Agent Orange are now facing funding cuts under the Trump administration.With fast fashion having a huge impact on our environment, some climate activists are opting for a new strategy to hold brands to account. The Guardian has an article which says that activists have started mailing used clothes back to brands. Fast fashion's environmental impact motivated Wendy Ward to start a campaign called Take It Back. She encourages her followers to send their worn-out clothes to CEOs, along with a "non-confrontational letter".Finally, the Associated Press reports that zookeepers in New York are feeding their baby vulture with a hand puppet. The puppet imitates how a young vulture might be fed by its real parents in the wild.You can catch our press review every morning on France 24 at 7:20am and 9:20am (Paris time), from Monday to Friday.
In this powerful episode of Fishing Without Bait, behavioral health therapist Jim Ellermeyer and producer Mike Sorg dive into the disempowerment of women in today's culture. They explore how girls begin to lose self-esteem as early as age nine, pressured by filtered media, fashion, and social influencers. Jim challenges societal expectations by examining gendered magazine ads, the “dad bod” double standard, and the impact of social media on self-image. The conversation expands into practical advice for young women, including creating personal “requirements to be with me” lists, reframing dating profiles, and reclaiming agency in relationships. The hosts also critique the SAVE Act and discuss broader societal implications on women's rights, voter suppression, and the harmful rhetoric aimed at marginalized communities. With a strong call for compassion, empowerment, and informed resistance, Jim and Mike emphasize the podcast's inclusive message: Liberty and justice for all—without exception.

Barabbas is an unusual specimen of the midcentury Hollywood Biblical epic, more spiritually searching (and edgier) than its peers. Starring Anthony Quinn as the criminal released by Pilate in place of Christ, Barabbas is based on a 1950 novel by Nobel winner Pär Lagerkvist (recently listed by Anthony Esolen among the greatest religious novels of the 20th century). It follows Barabbas through a long life in the shadow of the Cross, haunted and struggling to comprehend the meaning of having had his life exchanged for Christ's. He becomes almost an archetype of human resistance to grace – but in the end, does he nonetheless surrender himself to what he doesn't understand? Br. Joshua Vargas, Cong.Orat., returns to the show to discuss this intriguing film.

The Criteria crew continues its series on the films of Terrence Malick, jumping ahead to the experimental documentary Voyage of Time, which was co-produced by the Knights of Columbus! Voyage of Time portrays the history of the cosmos, the Earth, and the living creatures on it from the beginning of the universe to its end. The main point of the film is simply to evoke wonder at creation with its gorgeous photography, sound design and music. The film exists in two versions: a 45-minute version narrated by Brad Pitt (Voyage of Time: The IMAX Experience), and a 90-minute version narrated by Cate Blanchett (Voyage of Time: Life's Journey). James, Thomas, and Nathan Douglas all agree that the long version is generally superior. However, they debate over the content of the narration (which, in both films, is of an existential rather than scientific nature). Thomas contends that the narration in the long version, rather than inspiring the viewer to seek the truth about the meaning of the universe, seems to leave us swimming in a muddled and uninspiring metaphysical soup. James defends the narration as a “phenomenological” portrayal of primitive man's varying interpretations of the cosmos, rather than a set of consistent truth propositions.

Oscar-nominated writer and director Timothy Reckart rejoins the podcast to discuss a movie that has a marked resonance with the Nativity story, Alfonso Cuaron's brilliantly crafted dystopian thriller Children of Men. Set in 2027, it depicts a world that has fallen into despair and chaos because of a worldwide infertility crisis: no one has been able to have a baby in eighteen years. The film, made in 2006, depicts a future England looks in many ways like today's: childlessness, terrorism, and state-provided euthanasia. In the midst of all this, jaded protagonist Theo (Clive Owen) is given the task of secretly escorting a young refugee woman to the coast - and then discovers that she is pregnant.
