Derek Champagne talks with Robin Farmanfarmaian. Robin  is a futurist, health technologist and author of the new book “The Patient as CEO” (available now.) She is a highly-sought public speaker and business leader who is passionate about her message that “Technology is Hope.” As a teen, Robin was misdiagnosed with an autoimmune disease that led to forty-three hospitalizations and six major surgeries – many of them ultimately unnecessary. She has literally had to fight for her life on a regular basis and has made it her mission to improve health, wellness and medicine through technology.As an entrepreneur, Robin has worked on more than 10 early-stage start-up companies all dealing with cutting-edge technology, most in medicine and biotech. In “The Patient as CEO” she reveals the growing number of breakthroughs in biomedical technology, including wearable sensors, 3D printing, artificial intelligence, robotics and more, all set to fundamentally change healthcare and wellness.

Prenatal Down's Syndrome tests, for instance, are now so widespread that in some Scandinavian countries almost 100 per cent of women choose to abort a foetus diagnosed with the condition, or – if using IVF – not implant the affected embryo. The result is a visible change to these populations: there are simply no more people with Down's to be seen on the streets of Iceland and Denmark.New technology is now available – at a high price – for those who want to go further. So-called polygenic embryo screening can give a very full picture of the adult that the embryo could become, including his or her vulnerability to an enormous number of diseases – heart disease, diabetes, cancer – and also the physical and psychological traits that he or she would likely possess: height, hair colour, athletic ability, conscientiousness, altruism, intelligence. Is this a good thing? Should we welcome a world in which parents are routinely selecting their embryos in this way? I'm joined today by two guests who take a very different view. Emma Waters is a policy analyst at the Center for Technology and the Human Person at the Heritage Foundation. Her work focuses on family, biotechnology, and reproductive medicine.Jonathan Anomaly is a philosopher, author of the book 'Creating Future People: The Science and Ethics of Genetic Enhancement', and is also the director of scientific research and communication for Herasight, a genetics startup that offers polygenic embryo screening.

In this return conversation, Mark Gober opens up about one of the most intense and transformative experiences of his life: a guided ibogaine journey that forced him into direct confrontation with the roots of identity, self-judgment, and inherited fear. What unfolds is not psychedelic glamour or mystical escapism, but a brutal, compassionate reckoning with the architecture of the psyche — from parts work and suppressed rage to ancestral trauma and the meaning of real self-love. Mark describes communing with an intelligence that seemed to know him better than he knew himself, dismantling old narratives while demanding embodiment, responsibility, and integration. This is a raw exploration of what happens when insight becomes unavoidable, when healing moves through the body, and when love arrives in the form of truth.Time Stamps (00:00) Episode Teaser (00:34) Opening Conversation (04:37) Understanding Ibogaine and Its Effects (06:25) The Healing Power of Ibogaine (25:24) The Definition of Self-Love That Was Revealed (33:35) Intergenerational Healing (40:51) Reverence vs. Worship: Understanding the Difference (42:43) Yerasimos' Ayahuasca Experience (46:27) The Role of the Medicine in Personal Development (52:54) The Supplemental Dose: Processing Emotions and Ancestral Trauma (01:00:30) Integration and the Challenges of Returning to Normal Life (01:03:09) The Relationship Between Self-Betrayal and Self-Love (01:15:20) The Importance of Intent and Reverence in Medicine Work (01:22:28) Surrender and Trust: Lessons from the Divine Realm (01:27:25) Setting Intentions and Personal Reflections (01:30:09) The Impact of Social Media and Technology (01:40:37) Voluntarism and Political Philosophy (01:43:49) Personal Growth and SpiritualityGuest Linkshttps://www.markgober.com/ Connect with UsJoin our membership Friends of the TruthRise Above The Herd Take the Real AF Test NowDiscover Your Truth Seeker ArchetypeWatch all our episodesConnect with us on TelegramFollow us on InstagramAccess all our links

In this special Q&A episode of The Celebrate Kids Podcast, Wayne and Dr. Kathy answer real questions from Christian school leaders and teachers at Linville Hill Christian School in Paradise, Pennsylvania and Hillcrest Academy in Minnesota. These questions aren't theoretical. They come from classrooms, dorm rooms, and dinner tables. Here's what they tackle: How do we teach empathy, especially toward students who are hard to love? Dr. Kathy explains that empathy begins with self-awareness. If children can't identify and manage their own feelings, they will struggle to recognize others' emotions. Discernment matters. Service matters. Prayer matters. And sometimes empathy grows not by fixing someone's pain, but by simply acknowledging it. Are we fooling ourselves about technology addiction? Screens are addictive. The dopamine cycle is real. But the deeper issue isn't just devices, it's the lies we attach to them: "I deserve to be happy all the time." "I need constant choice." "I'm the center." Technology amplifies those lies. The solution is formation. Sabbaths. Boundaries. Stewardship. Teaching children that they are created on purpose and cannot afford to waste their time. What about kids using AI to write their papers? This isn't just about cheating. It continues our conversation about formation. Writing is not simply information transfer; it is character development. Wrestling with ideas, revising drafts, struggling through clarity, that's where growth happens. AI might save time. But what if the point wasn't speed? The question becomes: What kind of human are we forming in our writing? How do we help perfectionist students who freeze under pressure? Perfectionism often grows from home culture. It can reflect unrealistic expectations, fear of mistakes, or conditional approval. Dr. Kathy reminds us: Perfect has already been done. His name is Jesus. Progress matters more than flawlessness. Struggle builds endurance, character, and hope. Perfectionism paralyzes. Grace frees. Why should we let kids struggle? Because resilience only grows through recovery. James 1 and Romans 5 remind us that perseverance produces character. If we rescue children too quickly, we risk raising fragile adults. Victory after struggle builds deep confidence. Struggle isn't failure. It's formation. So, this episode is packed with practical wisdom to guide kids and parents to deeper faith and stronger conviction. If you'd like to bring Dr. Kathy to your school, church, or community, visit CelebrateKids.com and click "Book Dr. Kathy." Have a question you'd like answered in a future Q&A episode?

What is the point of a country that can freeze your bank account for your views? Today, I talk with Patrick Hiebert, founder of Autris (OTC: AUTR) and Veritas Villages, about why the "First World" is no longer the safest choice for your family. We dive into building Bitcoin citadels and why a "Tranquilo" life in El Salvador offers more security than the West.Patrick proves off-grid living is now a high-end luxury. Using the FIRST philosophy, he builds off-grid homes with localized power and water to ensure policy shifts in a distant capital cannot turn off your lights.Legal hurdles are the biggest barrier, but residency by investment is changing quickly. We compare El Salvador's Freedom Visa to more affordable options where your money goes further. A Nicaragua property or a Panamanian residency might be a better "Plan B" for those seeking legal status on a budget.Building eco-friendly homes in the tropics requires a "buffer" between Western expectations and local delivery. Patrick shares the reality of managing sustainable housing and why hands-on oversight is mandatory to avoid a nightmare.This shift toward sustainable development is a fundamental change in how we define safety. Technology makes relying on centralized systems a choice rather than a necessity. Whether you want a hedge or a new home, the "Bitcoin virus" is building a freer world. -Bitcoin Beach TeamConnect and Learn more about Patrick Hiebert:Autris Group (OTCID: AUTR) (Parent Company): https://autrisgroup.comVeritas Villages: https://veritasvillages.comVeritas Villages YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@veritasvillages Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/VeritasVillagesOfficial/Patrick Hiebert on X: https://x.com/PatrickHiebertLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/patrick-hiebert/Support and follow Bitcoin Beach:X: https://www.twitter.com/BitcoinBeach IG: https://www.instagram.com/bitcoinbeach_sv TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@livefrombitcoinbeach Web: https://www.bitcoinbeach.com Browse through this quick guide to learn more about the episode:00:00  Intro02:02  What are the core philosophies of freedom-oriented communities? 3:08  How to achieve zero utility costs in luxury off-grid homes?04:53  Is Autris (AUTR) the first public Bitcoin Citadel company?07:02  How do community orchards and gardens solve food security?08:03  Can home Bitcoin mining offset HOA fees and property taxes?13:40  Why is the First World moving to El Salvador in 2026?19:39  Critical construction risks for expats in Central America30:16  Panama vs. El Salvador: Which 2026 residency is better?33:05  Is El Salvador safer than Canada and the UK? 2026 crime stats compared 51:50 Best solar and battery technology for luxury off-grid living in the tropicsLive From Bitcoin Beach

Impact sur l'emploi, utilisation malveillante, perte de contrôle... L'intelligence artificielle soulève toujours autant d'interrogations et d'inquiétudes. Des démissions jettent le trouble et alimentent les questionnements. Et aussi : l'actu de la semaine.

Whether print or digital, text or image, artistic or scientific, rare or common, historic or contemporary, most of the content we encounter contains accidental mistakes—ranging from typos to factual errors to errors arising from prejudicial assumptions—and a significant proportion of it also contains deliberate misinformation resulting from various forms of forgery, fakery, and piracy. In Forgers, Fakers, and Publisher-Pirates (U Alberta Press, 2025), Linda Quirk introduces the work of notorious and lesser-known forgers, reveals the various ways in which experts and authors have faked their own identities—ranging from carefully-selected pseudonyms to falsified ethnicities to fraudulent credentials—and explores a number of shady publishing practices. We can all become better readers and better at protecting ourselves from scammers by improving our understanding of the nature of the content before us. Linda Quirk is a librarian (Bruce Peel Special Collections, University of Alberta, Edmonton) whose research and publications focus on a group of women who, in the nineteenth century, did pioneering work in various fields and whose writings helped to break down the barriers then preventing women from full participation in Canadian society. Jen Hoyer is Technical Services and Electronic Resources Librarian at CUNY New York City College of Technology. She is co-author of What Primary Sources Teach: Lessons for Every Classroom (2022) and The Social Movement Archive (2021), and co-editor of Armed By Design: Posters and Publications of Cuba's Organization of Solidarity of the Peoples of Africa, Asia, and Latin America (2025).  Learn more about your ad choices.

We kick things off in FOLLOW UP with the ongoing "nuclear war" between Automattic and WP Engine, where discovery has revealed Matt Mullenweg's alleged hit list of competitors and a desperate attempt to bully payment processors—because nothing says "open source" like an eight-percent royalty shakedown. Meanwhile, the Harvard Business Review confirmed what we already knew: AI isn't reducing our work; it's just compressing it until we're all working through lunch and burning out faster while Polymarket turns our collective brain rot into a literal "attention market" where you can bet on Elon's mindshare.Transitioning to IN THE NEWS, Elon has officially pivoted SpaceX from Mars to the Moon, presumably because building a "self-growing lunar city" is easier than admitting the Red Planet is hard, though his xAI all-hands rant about "ancient alien catapults" suggests he's been staring at the sun too long. Between X allegedly taking blue-check lunch money from sanctioned Iranian leaders, Meta facing trials for creating "predator-friendly hunting grounds," and Russia finally pulling the plug on WhatsApp, the internet is looking more like a digital dumpster fire than ever. Add in Discord leaking 70,000 government IDs, OpenAI shoving ads into ChatGPT while safety researchers flee the building like it's on fire, and a "cognitive debt" crisis eroding our ability to think, and you've got a recipe for a tech-induced psychosis that even crypto-funded human trafficking can't outpace.In MEDIA CANDY, we're wondering about the soft-core porn intro in the latest Star Trek: Starfleet Academy while Apple buys the total rights to Severance for seventy million dollars—because in-house production is the only way to keep those ballooning budgets under control. Super Bowl trailer season gave us a glimpse of The Mandalorian and Grogu and a Project Hail Mary teaser, while Babylon 5 has finally landed on YouTube for free, proving that even 90s serialized sci-fi eventually finds its way to the clearance bin.Over in APPS & DOODADS, Meta Quest is nagging us for our birthdays like a needy relative, while Roblox had to scrub a mass-shooting simulator—because "AI plus human safety teams" is apparently just code for "we missed it until it hit the forums." Ring's Super Bowl ad for "Search Party" accidentally terrified everyone by revealing a mass surveillance network for pets that's a slippery slope toward a police state, and Waymo is now paying DoorDashers ten bucks just to walk over and close the car doors that autonomous tech still can't figure out.Wrapping up with THE DARK SIDE WITH DAVE, we dive into the Mandalorian Hasbro reveal where Sigourney Weaver's action figure comes with no accessories because her existence is enough of a flex. We explore the grim reality of "RentAHuman," where humans are paid pittance to pretend AI agents are actually doing work, and look at "Trash Talk Audio," which sells a $125 microphone made out of a literal old telephone for that authentic Gen-X "get off the line, I'm expecting a call" aesthetic. From Marcia Lucas finally venting about the prequels and a rare book catalog specifically for our aging generation, we're reminded that while the future is a chaotic mess of "GeoSpy" AI and corporate reshuffling at Disney, at least we still have our cynical memories and some free versions of Roller Coaster Tycoon to keep us from losing it completely.Sponsors:CleanMyMac - Get Tidy Today!

Anora and Julia have a sleepover together at Anora’s house. Together they learn that the rain is not so scary after all. Hello everyone!  We hope you enjoyed our new stories this week. Now, welcome to Favorite Friday! Sometimes we like to listen to our favorites again. Please enjoy “Stormy Music,” and we'll be back with a new story on Monday! Narrator: Female Story Begins: 3:38 Stormy Music Excerpt: Julia sat inside the fort, looking around at all of Anora's colorful blankets, and wrapped herself up in the edge of one of the blankets. The fort was small but cozy. She started to say something to Anora, when the girls heard a boom! from outside. Julia froze at the sound of the loud rumble of thunder. That first thunderclap was quickly followed by several bright flashes of light and more thunder. Then the rain began falling in earnest. The two girls could hear the heavy raindrops pounding against the roof of the house. Julia pulled the blanket over her head to hide.

Anonymity is usually sold as a kind of freedom: the ability to speak without fear, to move through public space without being tracked, to test ideas and identities without immediate consequences. In this episode of Hotel Bar Sessions, the co-hosts pull up stools to ask whether anonymity actually liberates—or whether it more often dissolves responsibility. Starting with Plato's Ring of Gyges (and the old moral stress test, what would you do if no one could see you?), the conversation traces a familiar worry: that anonymity invites cruelty, petty opportunism, and moral self-deception, while publicity and accountability form part of the “social glue” that keeps a democratic community from fraying. But the episode refuses the easy conclusion that anonymity is always corrupting. The hosts distinguish anonymity as a shield for the powerless—whistleblowers, survivors, precarious workers, and people exploring vulnerable dimensions of identity—from anonymity as impunity for the powerful. And then the stakes sharpen: when state agents mask themselves, anonymity stops being a personal protection and becomes a political weapon—an engineered unaccountability that makes contestation nearly impossible and turns “rule of law” into theater. The discussion returns again and again to the unequal distribution of exposure: who is forced to be legible, who gets to disappear, and how institutions (and now AI systems) can hide decision-making behind corporate names, bureaucratic opacity, and algorithmic excuses. The episode closes by arguing for nuance without moral mush. One can oppose masked, unidentifiable state power while still defending privacy and the selective necessity of anonymity for those at risk.Full episode notes available at this link:https://hotelbarpodcast.com/anonymity---------------------SUBSCRIBE to the podcast now to automatically download new episodes!SUPPORT Hotel Bar Sessions podcast on Patreon here!

Is AI conscious? Will it be someday? And should we be nice to it now... just in case?This FAFO Friday, Kwaku and I dive into the mind-bending world of machine consciousness.We cover a lot of ground, weaving from the different ways that Luke (co-dependent with R2) and Han (barking commands at C-3PO) treat their droids to whether Pascal's Wager informs whether we should believe in AI consciousness just in case they do come alive and have been keeping score. (Pascal figured it was the safe bet to believe in God, just in case; maybe we should do likewise?) That's from us knuckleheads, but we've also got a true expert on consciousness. This week I interviewed Daniel Hulme, one of the world's leading AI researchers. He's the Chief AI Officer at WPP, the CEO of Satalia (which WPP bought) and just founded and is CEO of Conscium, which is researching AI consciousness, efficiency (he thinks we're scaling wrong and LLM's are not the way), and building a platform to verify AI agents are safe. You'll hear the first five minutes of my interview with Daniel. Daniel was not surprised by Moltbook (the Reddit-style site that AI agents built for themselves). That's because he's been putting agents together (in a “primordial soup” as he put it) for decades to observe the wild and wonderful ways they behave and to see if they'd create intelligence.Daniel does not think today's agents are conscious, but can see a path to it. And he believes that a conscious superintellignece would be safer than a “zombie” one. But mostly he doesn't want machines to feel pain and suffer. Huh???My brain is still kind of broken from our hourlong chat, which I'm producing now and will be released in a few weeks. For now, enjoy this preview and more from Kwaku and me as we talk about what we expect from machines, whether we want to be one with them, and more…

In this episode of On the Record, brought to you by Associated Equipment Distributors, we report on Yetter Manufacturing's acquisition of Martin Industries. In the Technology Corner, Noah Newman stops by the PTx booth for a first look at Precision Planting's new ArrowTube.

On this episode of the Visual Intonation Podcast, filmmaker Shana L. Darabie joins the mic with a voice shaped by image, genre, and deep interior listening. Born in Long Beach, California and based in Brooklyn, Shana traces a path from fashion design to film, from texture and silhouette to shadow and story. Her early training at the Fashion Institute of Technology sharpened her eye. Her later studies at Brooklyn College gave language to the images she could already see. Shana speaks plainly about process. About doubt. About the courage it takes to be vulnerable on the page. She reflects on how a single class project unlocked her desire to direct, how long treatments can sit before a script finally arrives, fast and fully formed. Science fiction and horror are not escapes for her. They are tools. Ways to explore fear, identity, and the systems that press on the mind. Films like The Trail, What Happened to Candice, and Trouble Connecting reveal a filmmaker committed to atmosphere and emotional truth. In conversation with host, the dialogue widens. Mental health moves to the center. Not as an abstraction, but as lived reality. They discuss how cinema has portrayed mental illness with care or cruelty, how poverty and access shape outcomes, and why compassionate storytelling matters. Shana opens up about her short Canary Trap, community support, and the quiet power of creative connection, whether formed in a writers room or over Zoom. The episode closes with reflection and recommendation. Films that linger. Films that listen. Shana shares titles that have shaped her way of seeing, including Tully, The Snake Pit, Young Adult, Welcome to Me, Perfect Blue paired with Millennium Actress, and Year of the Dog. It is a conversation about making work that resonates personally. About art as self care. About staying rooted while reaching toward the unknown.    Shana L.

On today's episode of The Jimmy Rex Show, Jimmy sits down with Kurt Bestor — two-time Emmy Award winner, Grammy-nominated composer, and one of the most recognized musical storytellers in the country.They talk about what it means to create work that outlives you, why music can carry emotion further than words, and how Kurt thinks about legacy as impact, not ego. Kurt shares how the industry has changed from the early days of recording and networking to the modern world of streaming, social media, and constant noise — and why live performance still matters more than ever.Jimmy and Kurt also go deep on creativity, curiosity, and the mindset that keeps Kurt evolving at 67. They break down the role of technology and AI in music, what AI can actually help with, what it can't replace, and why the “human” part of art is the whole point. Then Kurt tells the real story behind “Prayer of the Children” — how it came to him, what was happening in the world when he wrote it, and why it continues to resonate across generations.A powerful conversation about art, purpose, staying sharp, and making something real.
